Neji activated his Byakugan and immediately put himself to defence. Naruto on the other hand, did not hesitate to use his legs to use as first attack. Normally a Taijutsu started to a hand combination. But the Ambivalent Move Taijutsu is totally opposite. It started to a foot combination. This shock Neji but manage to dodge it by bending a bit. Too bad he didn't know that his second feet is now moving to attack.

All Neji knows is he was caught unattended that time so the next Foot hit his back with a certain amount of strength. Neji cough blood so Naruto put a distance between him giving Neji enough time to breath and gain a bit strength.

"Just two moves? Do you ever wonder why you can par to Hinata before Chunin Preliminaries a bit? She was actually using Weight Seals. It hinders her real speed since she wanted to put your pride bit intact. She's sweet right? She even worried you cannot survive he full speed. She even forfeit just to give you a chance to become a Chunin since she's already a Jounin at the age of 9. But you're quite ungrateful so I'll let you taste some of her real power," Naruto said. Neji glare to him but he just mockingly smile to him.

"Stand up! You told me that my fate is sealed to lose with you? Can you prove it? Prove it to me now!" Naruto said. Neji stand up and went to his gentle fist stance again. Naruto grin as 15 Shadow Clone appeared near to him. No handseal, no shouting. Everyone in the Konoha Ninja corps look shock. Without seals or shouting, it means Naruto's Chakra control can be par to Senju Tsunade.

Naruto dash to Neji again. This time Neji didn't wait for Naruto to attack him and proceed to attack Naruto again. Each Naruto Clone uses shuriken, Kunai and Ninja wire to prepare his next step. All the civilian was shock as well as the Shinobis who still don't know that he was already the Hokage. He was fighting Neji on hand to hand battle and didn't put himself into disadvantage. Instead he looks like the one who was gaining the upper hand.

"Thata right! Beat his pride! His too arrogant to his Taijutsu. Now he face someone who can gain upper hand in Taijutsu Battle!" Tenten said looking intently to Neji.

"I told you, Ino-pig! Naruto is strong!" Sakura said smiling as she watch the battle. Ino, on the other hand still can't regain from her shockness. Kiba smirk seeing Naruto can par to Neji who was proclaimed as one of the strongest Genin in their Generation.

"Whats the matter? You're at disadvantage now," Naruto said mockingly while dodging Neji's attack. Neji becomes frustrated almost put his hand to do some dirty work again.

"Wanted to activate her seals again and threatened me? Go on! No one will stop you!" Naruto said coldly. After Hinata woke up, Naruto manage to finish the other Death Dojutsu Lock Seals with the notes he found together with the contract and letter. Now, Neji cannot threatened him anymore. Too bas because Neji didn't see how Naruto put the whole Stadium was already set for Naruto's next move. Neji saw eight of Naruto's Shadow Clone holding Ninja wire with chakra on it.

His whole body was now trap to the wires that Naruto put for.

"How did he..." Kurenai look shock and amaze at the same time. They didn't see that coming. Naruto just put Neji into trap without him knowing it. What really amaze them is that, Naruro never use any Ninjutsu aside from Shadow Clone ever since their battle begin.

"He set it up while he is in battle with Taijutsu to Neji. The weapons he throws to him didn't really aim Neji. He just let Neji have that illusion. He throw the weapons to set up his trap," Asuma analyze.

"Thats, terrifying," Kurenai commented.

"He was too determine that time, you remember?" Asuma said to Kurenai. Kurenai just look to the Stadium.

Neji tried everything to release himself into the trap. But because the Ninja wire had a chakra, he struggle so much that he can't move anymore.

"Fate was set on the stone? Kid, your hundreds of years too young to tell it," Naruto said with a blank face.

"Fate was just a name. A name that cage a lot of people thinking it is real. If there is a fate, I believe that you are to one who was going to write it. If my fate was set on the stone, I should be dead many years ago," Naruto said while looking directly to Neji's eyes.

"You're too arrogant thinking you're really strong enough when there we're far more stronger than you. You become cocky because everyone is praising you putting to your head how great you are. You become blind to sudden power being a heir. You might have that position today, can you hold it until the end?" Neji look away as every words Naruto said to him was like a knife being stabbed to his heart.

"I'll never be surprise if you get killed on your first A-Rank mission. You still didn't see how cruel the reality can be. You are still naive and a brat to be cocky on your talent and skill. You have a great potential but you're wasting it. You should be thankful, Hinata still value you as his cousin because if not, death will be a luxury to you," Naruto said looking coldly to Neji's eyes. Neji can feel his body shiver so much. Was he really that arrogant?

Now, for the first time, Neji admitted to himself his mistake. He look to the ground, defeated, and regretting what he did. He felt guilt rush to his heart immediately.

"Each of the end of my Ninja wire was filled with Prank device. If you'll not forfeit, you'll get humiliated I'll give you five seconds to decided," Naruto put a distance to him and Neji and perform a very fast 50 hand sign seals that even a Sharingan cannot see it clearly.

"Five..."

"Four..."

"Three..."

"Two..."

"One...- I forfeit!" Too late for Neji because Naruto already activate the pranking system he put to the Kunai. Putting Neji a lot of glue, Glitters, paint, feather, and eggs. All in all he looks like a rainbow. Everyone felt silent as if their place become a ghost town.

"Too late," Naruto said. Neji look so humiliated which makes Shino, Shikamaru, and Sasuke laugh.
