Sora looked at himself in the mirror. What appeared in the mirror, was a young boy who was extremely handsome, almost enchanting. The boy had skin as white as snow. His lips are quite rich, giving off a rosy and healthy glow, the bridge of his nose is high. He had a fair face like a jade. But the most attractive was his eyes which were his eyes which glowed with beautiful blue with a pink hue in it.
Looking at the eyes, Sora thought, 'Finally this is going to be the first step'. Sora applied for early graduation. Sora has already reached the limit of training and with no access to advanced knowledge and jutsu, Sora will start to stagnate.
Sora's decision is not made in haste. Sora knows that the third ninja war is just around the corner and to improve rapidly and survive, Sora decided to early graduation.
The gem cannot be polished without friction, nor man perfected without trials. Sora is well aware that when he is satisfied with himself, he will start stagnating. So, for the graduation exam, Sora applied to battle against a chunin. Though it was very uncommon, Sora has also had spars with the instructors in the academy and was convinced by him so they vouched for him.
As an orphan, Sora has decided to fully show his talent and let the village value him more. So that he will not let him die in a brutal mission. Moreover, after graduation, he can learn more from an experienced jonin who will be leading the squad which will be impossible if he decided to hide and pretend to be mediocre.
If Sora had a system, the low key will be the kingly way, but in his situation being as high profile as possible will garner him as many resources as possible. The graduation exam is the opportunity Sora decided to shine so that he will leave the line of mediocrity.
After reaching the school, Sora went to the teacher's room where many instructors were present. After a brief introduction, a chunin named Saburo stood up and said," Little guy, I know you are a genius but you must know that the real battlefield is different from the sparring so be careful as I am going to do my best."
"Thank you for your warning," Sora said. He knows what the chunin said is true. What he was doing till now was just a preparation for the battlefield, now, he is going to be a shinobi for real.
After a brief talk, everyone went to the training field.
Some students who were also in the field quickly learned that Sora has applied for early graduation and will be fighting a chunin. Soon, the news spread to the ears of every student who came to the field to watch the battle including the classmates of Sora who cheered him on.
Amidst, the cheering, Looking at Sora and the chunin, Asuma commented," Sora is being too stupid to challenge a chunin. A veteran chunin is different from us, they are way more powerful than any senior of the academy."
Asuma is the son of Hokage and he has chunin instructors who teach him. So, he knows their strength which is way more than what an academy student can handle.
Listening to Asuma, Kurenai was also very worried and prayed for the safety of Sora.
While Guy stood up and roared with fire burning in his eyes, "No, this is the passion and the power of youth. To climb an unsurmountable mountain is the most youth thing to do. Sora is very strong and he will scale the mountain that is chunin with the burning passion of the youth."
While the three talked, the chunin, Saburo, and Sora also were ready and walked to the field.
Another chunin came to the field. He was the appointed referee in the match and said," Make the seal of opposition"
After making the seal, Both Sora and Saburo rushed towards each other. Saburo took out a kunai and threw it at Sora who quickly dodged and reached the taijutsu range. Sora released a powerful kick which threw the chunin instructor to the edge of the field.
'The kid is stronger than I imagined. The kick was very strong, it almost broke my ribs if I didn't react quickly and backed away a little.' thought Saburo.
"Hey, kid. The fight is not all about taijutsu." Said Saburo between breaths.
"Take this, Fire style: Fireball jutsu." roared Saburo after weaving the hand sign.
A huge blast of flame seemed to engulf Sora. Many students were horrified by the display but a quick burst of smoke revealed it was a shadow clone.
Sora had already used the flash step to cross the distance between them and struck out a fist. Seeing Sora appear suddenly in front of him, Saburo was surprised and quickly made the subconscious reaction to block the punch.
But all this was in vain as his arms were blown out by the punch of Sora which was thinly coated in chakra. Sora quickly placed the kunai in the throat of Saburo.
"The match is over. Sora is the winner." said the surprised chunin at the result.
Sora quickly took back the kunai. Saburo breathed a sigh of relief and replied" Thank you".
"Kids these days are amazing. Congratulation on your graduation," said Saburo leaving the field with a lonely back.
While the surrounding students went in uproar at the strength shown by Sora and the defeat of a chunin.
"Congratulations. From now you are a shinobi of the leaf." An instructor came to the field and said to Sora while handing him the Konoha headband.
Looking at the headband, Sora knew he was officially a shinobi and he had taken the first step to be strong.
