Neji had changed a good bit too in some ways but had still remained the same in others ways despite the things that happened, within three years after Naruto death Neji had risen to the Ranks fairly fast and was made a Jonin. Also he had become so skilled at the time that in his Jūken (Gentle fist) skill level was at the level of his uncle Hyuga Hiashi who was the strongest user of Jūken in the Hyuuga Clan at the time. Neji even created several of his own techniques using Jūken that had proven to be very powerful. Like Lee over the following years Neji grew stronger and was credited as one of Konoha's top Jonin he even earned the nickname Higyoushiroi (White Strike) due to the fact that Neji always wore White robes even in Battle and was well know to be able to killing many different enemy Ninja's with One Strike. Neji had also dated TenTen for a while but that eventually did not workout and both decided to stay friends eventually Neji started to date a young girl from his Clan and was now currently engaged to that girl.
TenTen had changed too a bit after Naruto death, she became a lot more focus on her training and not only trained in weapons but in Taijutsu and Ninjutsu a bit more although she was still better when fighting with weapons. After Naruto's death she went to Gai and asked him to help her improve her Taijutsu skill later on TenTen then had come to Kureani and asked her for someone to help her with her Ninjutsu in which Kureani had gotten her friend Uzuki Yugao to help her with TenTen's Ninjutsu. Yugao had also helped TenTen in her skill with a Sword since she was the top Kenjutsu user in the village and had been only second to her late lover Gekko Hayate. Eventually not long after the mission with the rescue of the Godaime Kazekage TenTen had went to Tsuande and begged her to train her to which Tsuande agreed to but only to a degree since she knew that TenTen was not a Medic-nin and there was not much she could train Tenten in. But she was still able to teach her a few Combat Justus's that revolved around Medical Jutsu as well as the Secret to her Super human strength although it took TenTen several more years before could use it correctly and even then she could not use it to the same level as Tsunade and Sakura could, she could still use it well enough to give her a big advantage in fight. Two years after the incident with the Godaime Kazekage TenTen was accepted into the ANBU division and was put into the Assassination unit of ANBU due to the fact that she was an Assassin type Ninja. After a year in joining ANBU she was made a Captain and earned a nickname in the Bingo as Okami ken no Konoha (Konoha's Blade Mistress) famed for her skill in Bladed weapons or specifically Sword fighting and was now credited as the best Sword user in Konoha. She also had quickly became known as Konoha top Assassin in the ANBU as well (which had caused Anko to whine for a couple of days since she use to have been Konoha top Assassin in the ANBU) and was now the Chief Commander of the Assassination unit in ANBU. TenTen herself did not try and date anyone else after the failed relationship with Neji, since she decided to concentrate on her carer more and worry about finding a relationship with someone later.
Kureani then started to focus on Choji as he spared with Lee and could not help but smile sadly at how much her former husband's team had grow and changed and thought about how proud he would have been if he saw how they had grown. Since after Azuma death the three of them grew stronger where eventually they became know as the Neo Ino-Shika-Cho but even then they each rose and grew stronger individually.
Choji had changed a great deal over the years he was no longer fat since he had now replaced it with muscles and wore Samurai like armour and would carry a large battle axe on his back. He had also mastered all his family Jutsu's and was now a member of Konoha Demolition unit and would soon become the leader, since his mastery of his family Jutsu's, where he could expand any part of his body and grow larger made him perfect for destroying enemy base's and fortress and had once destroyed an entire castle belonging to a corrupt Warlord by himself before a War started. He had even earned the nickname Konoha no Kyojin Keiude (Konoha Strong-Armed Giant). Choji later on even married a young Civilian girl who had worked in one of his family restaurants as one of their top Chiefs. This was of no big surprise, since Akimichi men were well known for marrying women that were excellent cooks since they were know to love their food about as much as the love their wives.
Shikamaru had not changed too much he was still lazy like all Nara's but he wasn't as bad as he use to be after Asuma death (which had effected him greatly) he took his reasonability's more serious and he trained a lot harder. He had even began to use Asuma Trench knives in battle, after Asuma death he swore that when Asuma and Kureani son Hiruzen (named after his Grandfather) became a Genin he would train him like Asuma had trained him. Over the years Shikamaru grew in Rank much like the others he eventually even took his father position as Konoha's Jonin Strategic Commander when his father retired from the position. It was a position that suited him well since he had an even keener mind than his father had when it came to Strategy and it had been because of Shikamaru that Konoha had won most of it skirmish's with Orochimaru and his allies. During the years Shikamaru had dated the Godaime Kazekage older Sister Sabaku no Temari for a while but much like with Neji and TenTen the relationship it did not work out well and they decided to break it off since from what she had heard from Ino the reason was because Temari wanted someone who was not only intelligent and strong but also more energetic. Soon after Shikamura then started to see a young girl called Shiho from the Code Breaker unit where they eventually married where when asked by some people why he married her he just replied "She was the lest troublesome women I knew". Although despite that comment everyone knew he cared for Shiho very much and they were even expecting their first child together to which Shikamura had told Kureani that if it was a boy they were going to call him Asuma which had made Kurenai smile since she knew how honoured Asuma would have been to be the name sake of Shikamaru first son.
