The morning sunlight filtered through Naruto's apartment, signaling the start of a significant day. Following his usual routine, he prepared for the day ahead, creating shadow clones for training and reflecting on the changes in his life over the past four years. Clad in his distinctive black shirt and dark red pants, Naruto made his way to the academy with a sense of accomplishment.

At the academy, Iruka's announcement about team placements filled the room with a mix of excitement and tension. Team 6, comprised of Naruto, Hinata, and Shino, found themselves under the leadership of Kurenai Yuki, a jonin specializing in genjutsu. Naruto, always keen on fostering connections, suggested they sit together to strengthen their bonds.

Kurenai Yuki led Team 6 to a secluded training ground, a space designed for honing the skills of aspiring ninjas. The air was thick with anticipation as the team faced exercises to break free from genjutsus. Kurenai, their experienced sensei, initiated the session by placing them under a low-level genjutsu. With synchronized precision, Naruto, Shino, and Hinata effortlessly disrupted the chakra influencing them.

"Good. Now, a higher level genjutsu," Kurenai announced. This time, it took the trio about a minute to break free. As they turned to acknowledge their sensei, they were met with a startling sight – an unknown figure had ensnared Kurenai in a jutsu, one resembling a water prison. Gasping for breath, she managed to utter a desperate plea, "Run."

The gravity of the situation hit the genin, and they quickly assumed battle positions. Naruto, recognizing the water prison jutsu, shouted urgently, "That's the water prison jutsu! It's used to suffocate a person to death. We have about 10 minutes to free her before she dies!"

The enemy ninja, determined to thwart any rescue attempts, conjured earth clones to guard against interference. Thinking swiftly, Naruto placed a piece of paper on his teammates, surprising them with a voice in their heads – Naruto's voice. "Hey guys, don't speak out loud. I've placed a thought transfer seal on you. If you just think it, we will hear it. Before you say anything, we have to save her. To do this, I believe the best way is teamwork."

Naruto unfolded his strategy, a symphony of tactics involving shadow clones, barriers, bugs, and lightning chakra. He orchestrated the plan seamlessly, assigning roles to each member. As Naruto generated clones, Shino released his bugs, and Hinata prepared to engage the earth clones. The shadow clones formed a barrier, infused with earth chakra to ensure its stability.

"Now!" Naruto commanded through their mental link. The bugs spread out, creating chaos among the clones. The barrier began to shrink rapidly, and bugs attacked the enemy ninja, forcing him to release Kurenai. The assailant, seemingly defeated, vanished like a mere shadow clone.

Naruto dispelled the barrier, freeing their sensei.

However, the unexpected twist came when Kurenai revealed that the perilous scenario was a test—a gauge of their teamwork and readiness. The revelation left Team 6 momentarily stunned, but Kurenai congratulated them on passing the test.t.

In celebration, the team decided to share a meal at a local restaurant. Naruto, aware that the establishment would charge him double, cleverly used a transformation jutsu to avoid the extra fee. Hinata and Shino were both taken aback, prompting them to ask Naruto why he did it. Naruto responded with, "If I didn't do this, I would be charged double or kicked out." Shino and Hinata then inquired further, asking why Naruto would face such consequences. Naruto replied, "Story for another time. Let's go eat!" Laughter and camaraderie filled the air as Team 6 solidified their bonds over a shared meal.

As night fell, Naruto returned to his apartment and delved into experimentation. Intrigued by the fusion of sealing techniques, he combined wind chakra with the gravity seal, creating a new technique he named "Gravitation Cannon." This technique allowed him to shoot a powerful gust of wind at an enemy. When it hit the enemy, it would strike them back with the force of the gravity seal. He then made a couple of duplicates and put them in his ninja pouch before going to sleep.
