Naruto: Chakra System

"Naruto! Why are you so surprised at something so small?" Sakura asked, placing a hand on Naruto's slumped shocked shoulder.

"Yeah, you're being overdramatic," Sasuke added with a simple scoff, his arms crossed.

"Lee! What are you doing here?" A loud, boisterous, and energetic voice filled the hall.

Fwushh!

With a small bang, a figure identical to Lee, save for the flak jacket, appeared on the left in the hall.

"Guy-sensei!!" Lee cheered, his excitement palpable.

"WHOA!"

"ANOTHER INTENSE GUY!"

Sakura and Sasuke were left dumbfounded, turning to Naruto, who appeared to be used to the sight.

"Hey, Naruto! Is he the one you were talking about?" Sakura asked, her eyes wide.

"Kakashi-sensei's friend, Might Guy?" Sasuke asked, similarly shocked.

"This super-intense, extreme bowl cut is the same as Lee's!" Sakura added.

"And those incredibly bushy brows are even surprisingly larger than Lee's!" Sasuke commented after her.

"H-HEY! YOU THREE!! DON'T MOCK GUY-SENSEI!!!" Rock Lee shouted at them.

"Ah, Kakashi's students are here too! The exuberance of youth! All of you are full of it!" Guy exclaimed, giving a thumbs-up and a single-toothed smile. "Yeah! I am Kakashi's eternal friend and rival, Might Guy!"

"I understand why you were so surprised that they aren't father and son!" Sakura muttered to Naruto.

"Yeah! Me too!" Sasuke nodded in agreement.

"Lee, you didn't answer! What are you doing here and not with Neji and Tenten?" Guy swiftly flickered to Lee's side, his big eyebrow raised.

"I was here to challenge Sasuke Uchiha to a duel, Sensei!!" Lee answered, standing straight like he was on a parade ground, a wide, proud smile on his face.

Bang!

"You dumb idiot!!" In response, a hard punch landed on Lee's left cheek from Guy.

"HUH!!!" Naruto, Sasuke, and Sakura screamed in unison, utterly astonished by Guy's unexpected and violent response.

"Lee, you... you..."

"S-sensei! I... I.."

"This is enough, Lee! Don't say another word!"

"SENSEI!!" Guy and Lee spoke with tears streaming down their faces before instantly hugging each other in a passionate embrace.

"HUUH!!" A mixture of utter disbelief and a touch of horror was clearly present on Sakura and Sasuke's faces. Naruto, however, was smiling genuinely, finding the scene quite normal.

"It's alright, Lee! Mistakes and youth go hand-in-hand," Guy said with the same passion, putting a hand over Lee's shoulders.

"You're too kind, Guy-Sensei!" Lee cried, tears still flowing down his cheeks.

"But you will be punished for attempting to break the prohibition of the Chūnin Exam."

"I understand, Sensei!"

"Do 500 laps around the practice arena!"

"Yes, Sir!!"

"They definitely are father and son, even if not biologically, atleast in terms of personality." Sakura commented, her brow twitching.

"I-Indeed!" Sasuke nodded in agreement.

"You three seem youthful! No wonder you're Kakashi's students!" Guy turned to Team Seven and commented with an affirmative nod.

"Y-yeah, y-you seem strong too," Sakura stammered.

"Hmmm..." Sensing Sakura's disbelief and doubt, Guy chuckled. "By the way, I am stronger than Kakashi. My record is 51 wins and 49 losses!"

"How about that! Guy-sensei is awesome, right!!" Lee cheered, his fist raised high.

"No way! You can't be stronger than Kakashi-sensei!" Sakura said in disbelief.

'Stronger than Kakashi?' Sasuke thought, turning to Naruto, who was the only one who seemed unphased.

Swoosh!

"Sakura, he's telling the truth. Guy is stronger than me." Kakashi's figure suddenly appeared behind his disciples. They all turned around.

"Sensei! Are you serious?!" Sakura asked in utter shock.

Seeing the surprise on both Sakura and Sasuke's faces, Kakashi chuckled, nodding. He was pleased that his image was so impressive to them. "Well, I am strong, yes, but I am not invincible."

Kakashi then explained. "If Guy and I were to fight at our full strength in a death match, there's no doubt he would win. He would die too if use full strength, but I wouldn't be alive to see that part."

"WHAT?!" Sasuke and Sakura, and this time even Naruto, were taken aback. They had been surprised so many times today there was no more room for shock.

"Well, well... Kakashi, now come on, I'm not going to have a death match with my friend. This isn't youth!" Guy said with a smile.

"Alright, you guys and Lee should head up to the classroom now. You don't want to be late, do you?" Kakashi told them, before turning to Guy. "And we should also move out."

———

"Whoa! What's this!" Upon entering Room 301, Team Seven was awestruck. The room was crowded with even more Genin than they had seen on the floors below.

"Sasuke-kun, you're late!" Suddenly, Ino jumped and wrapped her arms around Sasuke from behind.

"GET AWAY FROM SASUKE-KUN!! YOU INO-PIG!!" Sakura instantly shouted.

"Oh my, it's you, Sakura," Ino winked at her. "Your forehead is still as wide and ugly as usual."

"Oh, how do you do, Shikamaru, Choji!" Naruto simply slipped away from the bickering of Ino and Sakura, leaving Sasuke to deal with it himself.

"What a drag!" Shikamaru said simply with a yawn.

"Want some?" Choji offered Naruto his packet of chips.

"No, thanks. But tell me, are you guys ready for this Chūnin Exam? Because you'll be facing me, believe it!" Naruto said with a proud smirk.

"Aha, as loud as ever, huh, Naruto!" Kiba's voice came from behind them. He was walking toward them with Shino on his right and the shy Hinata on his left. "Kurenai-sensei didn't tell us, but it seems all nine rookie Genin are going to be part of this exam!"

"Ha, Kiba, you seem pretty... confident." Naruto's voice was laced with sarcasm, which Kiba did not go unnotice.

"Tch, I just lost last time, but I've trained a great deal, so I won't lose to you again this time!" Kiba said, clenching his fist.

"Ha, I don't see any change!" Naruto scoffed, making Kiba's face flush red with anger and embarrassment.

Munch...

Munch...

'Akamaru looks tasty...' Choji thought, glancing at the white dog on Kiba's head.

"Hey, you guys, be a little quiet and don't cause a ruckus here," an older Genin with gray hair said, adjusting his glasses.

"Huh! Who are you, acting all haughty?" Ino asked disinterestedly.

"I'm Kabuto, your senior. But anyway, take a look around you," Kabuto said with a smirk. As the nine rookie Genin looked around the room, they saw a massive amount of other Genin staring at them. Some of them looked mad and wanted to attack them.

"Uhh... Looks like we should quiet down a little."
