Chapter 10: Graduation
Itachi Uchiha, the prodigy of the Uchiha clan.
he was standing in the circle with the other Uchiha, as both were measuring the other, the whistle rang and both took a distance from each other.
Itachi quickly took out five kunai from his pocket and sent them away from the chunin, the said chunin was slightly confused for a second but I know what comes next, another five kunai were taken out and all of them redirected after hitting each other. The chunin was not idle all this time, he took out his tanto, and stopped nine of the kunai's as one grazed his arm.
Itachi continued the attack, as he made a clone of himself and ran across each other trying to fool chunin.
of course, you cannot fool a Sharingan so easily, but that was not Itachi's plan at all, while running cross he was continuously throwing kunai in the air, as the chunin got ready to fight Itachi at close range, Itachi backed off.
and threw another twenty kunai's in the air, all redirected and were on the chunin once again. The chunin panicked for a second before he used the substitution jutsu.
'hmm, the chunin is not bad, a normal person would have panicked more if he saw 40 kunai's cutting all of his pathways, especially a person using a sword, a person's mind is unconsciously affected if you have a sword or kunai at hand and the first thing they would think is to stop the attacks using the said weapon, this chunin is good" thought Kuroko as he examined the fight.
The chunin was now done sizing up Itachi's shuriken technique, he knew he was beaten at it.
In the anime, Itachi obtained said shuriken technique as he got older from Shisui, but Shisui has yet to come into his life so I was the one who gave him the idea, after all, Itachi's talent in shuriken and kunai is prodigious.
nonetheless, back to the fight.
the chunin came quickly at Itachi to fight at taijutsu, after all, Itachi has yet to open his Sharingan and taijutsu with a Sharingan user is equal to defeat.
As they fought, Itachi knew he would lose in this criteria so tried in every chance to back off, either using his leftover shuriken or using the substitution jutsu. he created distance and while making hand seals, threw the shuriken at the ninja and then blow small balls of fire from his mouth, making the shuriken lit.
'fire release- phoenix sage flower Jutsu' the chunin was again caught off guard(normal 7-year-olds aren't supposed to know or even learn such techniques) and Itachi continued with making a new batch of seals and throwing a big ball of fire at the chunin.
The chunin calmed himself down and used the substitution jutsu again, as he saw the attack hit where he was, there was a small crater in the ground, he was relieved for a second. He saw Itachi standing there and thought his next move when
"your dead"
A voice whispered in his ear as a shining kunai was placed at the chunin's neck, the image he saw just now of Itachi vanished ( just so you know, the chunin hadn't opened his Sharingan at that time,) and the real Itachi was seen standing behind him.
The instructor saw that and made the whistle, this fight was really impressive as Itachi was actually weaker than the chunin, and the chunin had yet to use any jutsu.
In the ninja world, anything can happen, a mere chunin could kill a jonin, Itachi all this fight took the attention on his shuriken jutsu and used the fire jutsu's only as of the end attack, the chunin had higher chakra reserves, if it came at jutsu battle, Itachi would have lost.
"damn Itachi that was good" I spoke loudly because while I was used to his battle tactics, still battling and winning against such a good chunin was impressive or so I think.
"next Kuroko, your up"

<flashback - 8 months ago>
My younger brother was born and unfortunately, my mom died while giving birth to him. While I felt sad about her, I actually didn't know her all that well, just that she came from a big undercover mission and then nine months at home.
Neji, was cute and it felt weird when I held him up, after all, I never had a younger brother, I don't know why but I felt happy and had hope for the future.
A younger brother huh,
" well well, little brother I promise you, you won't ever be a cannon fodder in the future, and neither will I let you become emo, and, "I thought about it, I don't why I made this promise, but "I will forever protect you"
"damn, those were some really cheesy lines that I spoke," but nonetheless, I will hold the promise.
........................<flashback end>
I made my way to the circle as a Hyuga chunin went in too.
I sized him up, branch family, height around 5'4, black hair, normal face, muscles hidden under the white kimono.
the fight started as we both opened our byakugan and started fighting in taijutsu, usually a bigger and stronger person would win in taijutsu, but Gentle Fist does not depend on the size of the person, its the technique that matters, and in terms of the basic technique, like hell If I let anyone defeat me.
The pace slowly increased over time, but he kept up with me.
He backed up and started making seals, for an earth jutsu.
while normal main house members of the Hyuga clan won't learn jutsu, the branch family had to, otherwise, how could they defeat everyone with just the 16 trigrams eight palms.
He threw balls of the earth at me at a high speed. I used the substitution jutsu and quickly pressed on him with taijutsu.
Our fight continued but opposite to the instructor's thoughts, the chunin started getting tired, on the other hand, I wasn't even feeling anything at all.
As his posture slipped, I went into the pose of 16 trigrams 16 palms, a technique only main house members can use unless a branch family has learned it himself.
The fight was pretty anticlimactic, after all in front of normal people, this chunin might be very good in taijutsu, and must have other techniques.
but in front of me, he was just weak.
