The outcome needed no further explanation. After Kakashi admitted defeat, Naruto did not press the matter.
That so-called graduation test naturally became a joke as well.
From then on, Kakashi found it hard to hold his head up in front of Naruto. If word got out that an Elite Jonin had been pushed to such a state by a freshly graduated student, he would lose all face.
Luckily, Naruto had not truly made a move. Otherwise, Kakashi could already imagine the Jonin mocking him.
