<h4>Chapter 313 - Ch313. Genin Vs Genin: Naruto</h4>


    "I am going to show you a prick, you orange retard!" The short ck-haired rain genin growled.


    "Oh? Sorry, I am not interested in your prick." Naruto lightheartedly refused while vehemently waving his hand left and right. That only made the short rain genin angrier and his cheeks flushed. "Considering your height, it can''t be very big anyway." Naruto pointed his finger at the rain genin and mocked as Anko taught him.


    "You are shorter than me, bastard!" The rain genin screamed in indignation.


    "Am not!" Naruto realized his insult could be used against him and flushed red too.


    "Are too!"


    "Am not!"


    "Are too!"


    "Am not! You ugly!" Naruto used his creativity.


    "Are t-, Ugly!? You are ugly! Your mother is ugly! Your sister is ugly!" The rain genin huffed, gasping for air from the heated exchange of words.


    Hearing that, Naruto quieted down and the rain genin took it as his victory. Unknown to him, mentioning Naruto''s mother might not have been the best idea.


    "MY MOTHER WAS NOT UGLY, YOU SHORT SWINE! YOU ARE UGLY! YOUR MOTHER IS UGLY! YOUR SISTER IS UGLY!" Naruto suddenly erupted in an imitation of Iruka''s Big-Head Jutsu, childishly screaming so loudly that the rain genin swayed on his feet, utterly deafened and dazed.


    The rain genin blinked and shook his head, trying to stop the ringing in his ears while Naruto was angrily huffing, ring at him.


    The two boys red at each other with the intensity of angry squirrels when the sounds of fighting reached them.


    "Ha! I bet my teammates are already kicking the asses of yours!" The rain genin smugly boasted, crossing his arms under his chest.


    Naruto naturally couldn''t let that go withoutment, "Hmph! Hinata-chan and Sasuke-teme are stronger! Hinata can spin so no attack can harm her and Sasuke-teme is a bastard!" He childishly defended his teammates, making even the rain genin deadpan on him.


    "Hah! As much as I don''t like them, mine are better. Ajisai is good with seals and... er," He tried to fish in his head for the name but drew nks, "the other guy... is almost chunin." The rain genin snorted in distaste.


    "Are not!"


    "Are too!"


    "Ar-"


    "Shut up!" The rain genin rubbed his forehead that started painfully throbbing. Dealing with the hyperactive orange kid was starting to be too much for him. "We are supposed to fight." He reminded.


    "Oh..." Naruto eximed as if he just remembered, "Do you want to fight?" He asked the rain genin and tilted his head.


    The rain genins headache intensified when he heard Naruto''s stupid question. In fact, he was fine with not fighting. His makeshift genin team for this mission was one of the strongest in the Rain vige. When they won their fights, they woulde here and the blondie would be screwed.


    Pete was chunin in all but rank and Ajisai was also one of the most skilled genins of Rain. As for him... Well, nobody said he could not show the loudmouthed kid who was the boss.


    "Bring it!" He smirked at Naruto, knowing the blonde would take that challenge head-on. "I, Genzo of Rain, will show you your ce!"


    Naruto''s blue eyes gleamed with determination as he put his hands together in a cross-shaped hand seal, "Kage Bunshin no Jutsu!" He shouted, creating five copies of himself with a puff of smoke.


    All six Naruto''s instantly dashed at Genzo, who sneered and started weaving seals. "Ha! You think your clones can defeat me? Think again, kid! Water Release: Water Dragon Technique!"


    Only now did Naruto realize they were quite close to a water source. No wonder Genzo was so self-assured. No genin was supposed to know and be able to perform a technique such as the Water Dragon.


    ''He must be quite the prodigy of his vige...'' Naruto idly thought, not slowing his dash even for a second despite a massive Water Dragon rising from theke behind Genzo.


    "I argued with you so much in order to get time for infusing my chakra into the water! You can only me yourself for your stupidity!" Genzo yelled while mentallymanding the dragon to attack.


    The Water dragon flew at Naruto and his clones, suddenly twisting to the left and with a big ssh crashing into the first clone, ttening it into the ground from the sheer weight of the water.


    The head of the water dragon was destroyed by it but a new head formed from the side of its body and flew straight at the next Naruto clone, easily sweeping it from existence as it ferociously slithered on the ground. The clone didn''t manage to even yelp before it was destroyed and the Water Dragon continued on its clone-annihtion spree.


    Two more clones were swept by the massive current of water shaped like a dragon, unable to keep their form due to the massive force behind the water. As the Water Dragon approached thest clone and original Naruto, its watery jaws opening wide about to devour them, the clone quickly grabbed the original and threw him at Genzo.


    Naruto was mid-flight, whipping a kunai from his pouch and throwing it at his opponent, forcing him to side-step while distracting him from casting another Jutsu. He was almost close enough...


    A water spear suddenly tore through Naruto''s abdomen, creating arge hole through it and suspending him in the air a few feet in front of Genzo who was smugly smirking at Naruto.


    "A true ninja always has a trick up his sleeve!" Genzo boasted, waiting for his gutted opponent to die.


    Naruto shakily lifted his head, looking straight at Genzo with a forced smile as he winced, "J-Jok-es on y-you." He said, causing Genzo to furrow his eyebrows before his eyes widened as the skewered Naruto poofed in a burst of smoke.


    Genzo heard another poof from his right side, the spot where Naruto''s kunai previouslynded, and before he could react, Naruto''s form tightly hugged Genzo.


    Genzo instantly reacted, about to tear Naruto''s form away from him when his ears suddenly heard his death sentence.


    "Exploding Shadow Clone."


    The Naruto who was hugging him whispered and Genzo only managed to widen his eyes in fright before his body was ripped apart followed by a booming sound and sh of the explosion.


    Naruto walked from behind a tree on the edge of the clearing, looking in a bit of dismay at Genzo''s charred upper body while his other charred body parts were strewn on the ground not far away. He might have been a prodigy in the Rain Vige but in the end, Genzo was a genin while Naruto was trained by Anko.


    So what if he could use A-rank offensive Water Jutsu? He was a sitting duck while using it!


    "A true ninja always has a trick up his sleeve, indeed." Naruto mumbled with a conflicted and unsatisfied look. "I was too cautious. I expected the guy in the clearing to be a Water Clone." He clicked his tongue and started to walk towards the corpse when he froze and a smile bloomed on his lips.


    "So Hinata-chan and Sasuke-teme already won!" Naruto chuckled, "And the bastard is also injured! Oh, oh, oh! Time to lord it over him!"


    Just like that, Naruto rushed towards his teammates like a man on a mission.
