Naruto's Legendary Rankings: The Black Flash, Uchiha Bloodline!

In the world of Naruto, during the final round of the Chunin Exams, a golden leaderboard tore through the sky screen and began broadcasting live to the entire shinobi world and the Pure Land. Its rules appeared in cold, stark letters: a ranking of kekkei genkai, with divine-level rewards for everyone who made the list.

Before Konoha's leaders could react, Uchiha Ran's name appeared on the public screen. The Third Hokage's most trusted protégé, the chosen candidate for Fifth Hokage, the "Black Flash": beneath that title, he had somehow concealed a three-tomoe Sharingan. The Pure Land chat room exploded. Hashirama Senju spammed, "Madara, I miss you so much!" Tobirama Senju sneered, "The Uchiha are evil by nature." Madara Uchiha fired back, "Get lost."

The reward for first place was revealed: Wood Release had descended upon the eight-year-old Moegi Kazamatsuri. The entire crowd fell silent. Danzo was already writing an assassination list in the shadows. Ran merely pushed up his glasses and looked toward the man beside him, Orochimaru, disguised as the Kazekage and eyeing him with his tongue against his lips. The Flying Thunder God kunai spun soundlessly between Ran's fingers. The shinobi world's golden leaderboard had only reached number thirty. The real show was just beginning.
