"Broken down in the categories of Nin, Tai, Gen, Ken, and a Special Skill are the base for the Jonin Exams," The Proctor started as he used a voice amplifier jutsu to get their attention as the examinations started. "Naruto Uchiha will be undertaking this exam and determined by his results will be granted Jonin status."

Naruto in the meanwhile was checking his body, feeling along his arms and chest and down his legs. he tightened his combat boots with steel tips and adjusted his sword. He was ready, he was going to ruin the competition. He turned to the proctor and nodded that he was ready. "The first exam will be in the realm of Taijutsu. No weapons, no chakra just pure hand-to-hand combat. Bring out the shinobi."

Naruto narrowed his gaze at the lazy-looking ninja who was tossing a pebble as he made his way over. "Naruto Uchiha," He drawled. "Everyone thinks the Uchiha Clan is blowing smoke up your ass because you're that bastard's blood."

Naruto tilted his head as he slowly released the calm and comfortable chakra he wrapped around his dark and oppressive original chakra. Slowly he could see the people around him shift uncomfortably, save for the Uchiha who were masters of their masks. Even Kushina squirmed.

'This is what you meant isn't it Kurama?' She asked as Naruto's frigid chakra could be felt throughout the entire stadium. 'That he was actively making me comfortable around him?'

'Precisely, his chakra feels like he should be inhuman, I've truly only ever felt this with Madara Uchiha, take it as me stamping that this kid was trained by him. Perhaps Madara even slipped some of his chakra into the boy at a young age and his original chakra adopted the foul chakra.'

Naruto's eyes glowed with a sinister red hue as he assumed a menacing stance, his movements fueled by an overwhelming desire for supremacy. His chakra churned, releasing an oppressive energy that sent shivers down the spines of those who witnessed the impending confrontation. "Begin!" The proctor yelled as he took steps back to witness the fight. The regular ninja, recognizing the magnitude of the threat, summoned their inner resolve. With a deep breath, they adopted a composed stance, their eyes focused on Naruto, determined to fight this battle even if it seemed that it was all lost because of his loose mouth. The air crackled with tension as the two combatants locked eyes. In an instant, Naruto lunged forward, his speed enhanced by the dark power coursing through him. His fists became a blur of rapid strikes, each blow carrying an extraordinary force that could shatter bones.

The shinobi didn't even stand a chance as Naruto was relentless with his attack, ducking and weaving like a dancer, his feet light but his strikes heavy. As the battle escalated, Naruto's malevolent intentions began to manifest in his fighting style. He unleashed vicious kicks and savage punches, using his tainted strength to overwhelm his opponent. 

Each strike was accompanied by an eerie aura as if darkness itself was guiding his movements. It became apparent to everyone that the Naruto they were seeing here was probably the one they would meet in the battle, it dawned on them that he was covering his chakra when around the village because it was counterproductive to what he was trying to achieve. This dark force of energy made you choke up from the foulness of his chakra.

"Impressive, I had no idea one could hide their original chakra feel so naturally for long periods," Nara commented. "His parents must've taught him that from an earlier age. Any insights Kagami-san?"

Kagami chuckled softly. "You aren't wrong but it wasn't his parents but Madara. Naruto told me of his memory of Madara trying to teach him how to do it because civilians couldn't handle chakra so dark and vicious."

"How vicious?" Nara inquired.

"Vicious enough that I can tell you this isn't even the full extent of his chakra feel," He answered, Naruto had tasked him to openly discuss his abilities when they came up in the fights to paint a very accurate picture while the Hokage's ears were perked. "Naruto's chakra is so foul it can drive civilians to suicide."

A silence hung after the statement, everyone was stunned. "How is that even possible?" Yamanaka asked, his wonder never fading.

"According to Naruto he was just born that way, nothing really that complicated." The Uchiha Head mumbled as they all turned back to the fight. The clash of their Taijutsu techniques resounded through the clearing, the impact echoing in the distance. Naruto's face contorted into a twisted smirk as he reveled in the pain he inflicted upon his adversary. The regular ninja, however, remained resolute, refusing to succumb to fear or despair even as his body trembled from his injuries.

"You should really give up," Naruto commented as a dark chuckle left his lips. "I would hate to have to cripple you."

'If this is the start of what he can do then he'll become an impressive Jonin,' The shinobi thought as he got back up on his feet before his legs ultimately gave out. He chuckled. "Seems I'm incapable of standing on my own. I surrender."

"You are smart, now get out," Naruto growled lowly as he straightened his frame and dusted his clothes. "What's the next category?"

"Genjutsu," The proctor murmured softly. "Bring in the next contender."

Naruto raised an eyebrow at the other Uchiha who stood across from him. He noted that while he wasn't as noteworthy as Kagami he was the next runner-up for his Genjutsu prowess. Inusami Uchiha was shadowed by Kagami Uchiha during the last war and now he was facing him. It was the second-best person to clash with an illusion battle.
