Naruto: The Wind Calamity

Fujin observed Hiashi's expression and easily concluded that he planned to take advantage of the opportunity Naruto provided. Just like in the original story, Hiashi met Neji and informed him about what truly happened before offering an apology.

Due to Sasuke's absence, the crowd got a breather and the stadium became chaotic once again. The only difference was that instead of demanding for the next match to be started, the audience was hounding the authorities to ensure that they wouldn't get attacked once again. After all, Naruto had won his match and no one wanted to be at the receiving end of his jutsus when he fought in the next round.

Due to Orochimaru's insistence, Sasuke wasn't disqualified and his match was postponed. Kankuro forfeited his match against Shino to keep the mechanisms of his puppets a secret, much to the displeasure of the audience. However, Temari rushed into the arena while Shikamaru was pushed into it by Naruto.

Hoka glanced at Kankuro and thought, 'That's weird. Why would someone forfeit from the Chunin Exams without even trying? No, this doesn't suit the personality he displayed during the preliminaries… It looks like the reason why the entire clan was training and why sensei asked for my help has something to do with Sunagakure.'

In order to keep their preparations a secret, very few people were aware of the real reason why the clans were preparing. Hoka wasn't one of them. Even though Fujin and Renjiro knew about it, they couldn't spread that information around. As such, both just asked Hoka to keep himself in top shape without giving him any details.

However, Kankuro's withdrawal caused Hoka and several other Konoha ninjas to become suspicious. Hoka glanced at Shikamaru and muttered, "Why is he lying like a dead fish in the arena?"

Fujin chuckled and replied, "Well, he is a Nara after all. This battle should be interesting."

Fujin glanced at the arena and thought, 'Due to my influence on Naruto, he resorted to wind jutsus instead of digging a hole to catch Neji off guard. So, Shikamaru doesn't have a hole to take advantage of. That said, it'll probably not have that much impact.

When Gaara attacked Sakura, he overturned a good part of the arena while Naruto's supercharged jutsus left massive scars on the ground. I guess he'll resort to using that.'

Due to feeling pressured by Fujin and Naruto, Temari was even more ferocious in the match. Unfortunately for her, her momentum was useless against someone like Shikamaru. The initial part of their battle was more or less similar to what Fujin remembered.

However, Fujin noticed one important detail. He thought, 'As expected. He has positioned himself in such a spot that his shadow won't have to go through the cuts on the ground left by the wind blades. He'll use this to surprise Temari.'

As Fujin predicted, Shikamaru used the shadows in those cuts on the ground when Temari hid behind her giant fan. The sudden change caught everyone off guard. However, what truly shocked them was that Shikamaru forfeited a few seconds later!

Renjiro chuckled and said, "As expected of Shikaku's son. Not only does he have his father's intellect, but he might exceed him in laziness as well."

The ones around Renjiro chuckled. Naruto couldn't hold it in and went to the arena to lecture Shikamaru. Meanwhile, the experienced ninjas in the stadium were impressed by Shikamaru's ability to plan. With Shikamaru and Temari's match done, the audience began asking where Sasuke was. Fortunately for them, Sasuke and Kakashi arrived in the nick of time.

After a short chat, Naruto and Shikamaru left the arena and ran into Gaara killing two Chunins who were trying to fix the match. Fujin sensed their chakra signatures disappearing and wondered, 'They tried to attack him even after seeing his match against Sakura?

Oh well, I guess this is just natural selection. It's a shame that this Chunin Exam will be interrupted. Otherwise, I could have bankrupted whoever is conducting the gambling.'

The battle between Sasuke and Gaara began. To the shock of most people, Sasuke displayed speed equivalent to Lee's along with his Taijutsu, overwhelming Gaara's sand.

In the stand, Shikamaru and Naruto were still in shock due to the sight of Gaara killing those two. Naruto suddenly stood and said, "Let's go see Kakashi sensei and Fujin. We need to ask them to save Sasuke just like Sakura in case anything goes wrong!"

By the time he reached Kakashi, Gaara hid in a cocoon made of sand. Kakashi didn't take Naruto's warning too seriously and said, "Don't worry about it, Naruto. There was a reason why we were late. Calm down and watch the match."

Naruto argued, "But sensei…"

However, Fujin cut him off and said, "It's fine Naruto. I'm keeping an eye. Focus on the match, it's quite interesting so far."

Naruto finally calmed down and looked at the fight. Seeing Gaara inside the cocoon, Temari, Kankuro and Baki became nervous. Baki cursed, 'Shit! What is Gaara doing? We haven't received the signal yet!'

Inside the cocoon, Gaara was preparing to transform into the One-Tailed Beast, Shukaku. Unaware of what Gaara truly was, Sasuke prepared his Chidori.

Guy and Renjiro were surprised. Renjiro muttered, "The Chidori… You were able to teach it to him in a month, Kakashi?"

Hoka realized what the jutsu was and asked, "Isn't this Kakashi's speciality?"

Guy nodded and said, "Yes. This is the only jutsu in Kakashi's arsenal that was created by him. So, this is why you had him focus on increasing his speed and improving his Taijutsu."

Kakashi chuckled and said, "The reason why I insisted on training Sasuke myself is because he is quite similar to me."

Fujin glanced at Kakashi and wondered, 'Insisted? Who was lining up to teach Sasuke? Well, other than Orochimaru that is.'

The Genins looked at Sasuke's jutsu in awe and some jealousy as Sasuke pierced through Gaara's ultimate defense to the shock of every Suna ninja in the stadium. Ironically, the one who was the most thrilled was Orochimaru.

"What is this warm moistness? Mother, what happened?" Gaara questioned. His eyes widened as he realized, "Blood? Is this my…? BLOOD! I'M BLEEDING!"

Gaara's screams were heard throughout the stadium. Sasuke, who was smiling, suddenly became serious as he felt something grab his arm. No matter how he tried, he couldn't withdraw his arm from the cocoon. Having no other choice, Sasuke activated Chidori once again.

Gaara's screams were heard throughout the stadium once again as Sasuke finally managed to get away. However, an arm made of sand chased after him for a few meters before falling to the ground and retreating inside the cocoon.

Renjiro, Kakashi and Guy became serious. Renjiro muttered, "He's trying to transform. Kakashi."

Kakashi nodded. If Gaara were to transform, he would be the one to take care of him. However, before he could make a move, a large-scale Genjutsu was launched at everyone inside the stadium!

The stronger ninjas immediately disrupted their chakra and broke out of the Genjutsu. Hoka wondered aloud, "Which bastard dared to use a Genjutsu on us?"

His eyes suddenly widened as he asked, "Huh? Where is Fujin?"

In the few moments when the Genjutsu was launched, Fujin had disappeared!

The Genjutsu, Kabuto cast, was a signal for all forces. The Oto ninjas outside Konoha used the scrolls given by Orochimaru to summon giant snakes. However, unlike in the original story, 8 groups of 3 Giant snakes were summoned. Along with 50 Suna and Oto ninjas in each group, they attacked Konoha from different directions!

In the stadium, Orochimaru made his move as well. Hiruzen easily dodged and said, "No Gold dust, huh? I didn't expect that the Kazekage would let you disguise as himself, Orochimaru. You did a very good job considering that even Jiraiya didn't recognize you."

Orochimaru pulled off his mask and said, "You praise me too much, sensei."

Hiruzen sighed and asked, "Why exactly are you after Konoha?"

Hiruzen couldn't make any sense of why Orochimaru hated him and Konoha to such an extent. Not only had he let Orochimaru go a decade ago, he hadn't even sent anyone to hunt him down. Yet, Orochimaru had done something so outrageous!

While the teacher-student duo talked, the Sound Four successfully fooled the Anbu Guards and set up the Four Flames Formation to isolate Hiruzen from other Konoha ninjas.

At the same time, one hundred Oto ninjas and six hundred Suna ninjas appeared outside the arena. Their leaders shouted, "Kill every Konoha ninja you see! If their civilians get in the way, kill them too! Don't leave anyone alive! By the end of the day, Konoha should be no more!"

Everyone shouted as 700 ninjas rushed towards the stadium! In the stadium, Hanabi nervously said, "Father, nearly 700 ninjas will reach the arena in a few seconds."

Hiashi was serious as well. Within moments, the Konoha ninjas in the stadium saw the figures of the Suna and Oto ninjas covering the entire horizon! Loud shouts of "Kill all Konoha ninjas" were heard throughout the stadium.

Sakura shivered as she fearfully muttered, "What's happ…?"

Her words got stuck in her words and her eyes opened wide. She wasn't the only one, Hanabi's eyes, along with the eyes of several hundred ninjas, widened similarly.

The Suna ninjas who had jumped over the walls suddenly noticed an unstable ball of wind right in the middle of their formation. One of the Jounins wondered, 'What is that?'

Before he or anyone else could take a better look at it, the ball exploded, sending Vacuum Blades flying in every direction! Everyone in the stadium who was still awake saw the bodies of nearly a hundred Suna elites being dismembered mid-air. Blood and body parts rained down on the arena, painting the trees near the walls red!
