"Hayate-sensei and Yugao-chan were my sensei before Jiraiya, and even before Kakashi-sensei." said Naruto in a serious voice.

"From what I've heard, they are Konoha's best kenjutsu specialists. Well, I suppose that's only half correct, seeing as only one of them is currently among the living, kukuku." said Orochimaru, receiving a rage-filled glare from Naruto. "So, they passed their knowledge on to you, hmm, Naruto-kun?" Naruto's entire being was filled with nothing, but malice and rage at the mention of his late sensei's demise at the hands of Baki, Orochimaru's pawn, and Kabuto Yakushi, his right-hand man.

*FLASHBACK: Between the preliminary and final stages of the Chunin Exams. 10:45 P.M.*

Naruto was returning to his apartment after training by himself since both Yugao and Hayate were on missions and couldn't train him. As usual when he was training by himself, Naruto overdid it and trained until he was unconscious. He had woken up at 10:40 PM and had just gotten started on his journey home, when he heard the sounds of a scuffle. Being a Konoha shinobi, it was Naruto's duty to protect the citizens of the Leaf, and check out any activity that he found suspicious, so he stealthily crept towards the source of the noise, not making a sound. What Naruto saw as he peered around the corner, both terrified and enraged him.

A Sand Jonin stood over his sensei's bloody body, holding the Leaf Jonin's own sword within his grasp as he pierced Hayate's chest with the blade. Naruto's eyes filled with tears and began to turn red in hate for the shinobi that had stabbed his sensei. Drawing a kunai, the Kyuubi-influenced Naruto charged the unnamed Sand Jonin. The Jonin; having been caught off-guard by the sudden appearance and speed of the Leaf Genin, couldn't react fast enough to counter the blonde's lightning-fast, Kyuubi-enhanced attack. Naruto tackled the man to the ground, stabbing him in the chest again and again; not noticing that; in his rage, he had killed the man with his initial attack.

While Naruto was stabbing the Sand Jonin, Kabuto crept out of the shadows moving to sneak up on the infuriated young Genin. The presumed dead Hayate saw this and, being unable to yell out to his student because of the pain, drew a flare gun from his ninja pouch, and fired it into the sky. Kabuto, seeing the bright light and noticing that the flare had been fired by Hayate, activated his chakra scalpels and lunged at the wounded Konoha shinobi. Naruto, seeing this, immediately blocked the grey-haired boy's attack and slashed at the boy trying to harm his already wounded sensei. Kabuto dodged every single one of Naruto's wild slashes when the boy back flipped, and kicked him in the chin, taking Kabuto by surprise. Naruto watched as the Kabuto in front of him 'poofed' into smoke.

'Shit, it was a shadow clone! Then that means-!' Naruto thought in alarm as he turned too late to save his sensei from being run through with a chakra scalpel, courtesy of Kabuto. Before Kabuto could take the man's DNA, Naruto intercepted him; making fifty shadow clones to battle Kabuto as the original tended to his sensei.

"No. Don't waste your chakra on me, I'm going to die anyway." Hayate said weakly, stopping Naruto just as he was beginning to do the handseals for the Mystic Palms jutsu that was taught to him by Yugao.

"Hayate-sensei! No, you can't die! How will I ever face Yugao-neechan again if I let you die?! What will I tell her, huh? What?!" Naruto screamed with tears rolling down his face.
