Chapter 1 Battle Between Old Friends

It's been a year since I was supposedly dead… My acupuncture medicine skills have been recovering my heart destroyed by kakashi's chidori while protecting my master Zabuza. During my recovery, I have been practicing my jutsu to become stronger. Now my journey takes me to finding my friend Naruto. I wonder if he will be surprised to see me alive. Putting on my mask I venture to Konoha in search of him. But before I look for him, I have to talk to the Hokage to replace my headband to the leaf village. Upon entering the village, I asked a nearby villager where the Hokage is.

Back then, I did not know that they call the Hokage a Hokage. I had thought that they were called "Hotagi"

Me: Do you know where I can find the Hotagi?

Villager: Who

Me: Hotagi

Villager: Who?!

Me: Hotagi!!
Villager: Who?!

I got mad and threw an acupuncture needle on his neck.

Me: Mike Jones!!

30 minutes of looking, I had found out that the Hokage was assassinated by Orochimaru. So I decided to stick to my mist headband. Walking on and wondering what to do, I stumbled into Kakashi. He was surprised to see me here.

Kakashi: Im surprised to see you here. I thought you were……….

Awkward

Me: No I am not dead; I had pretended to be in order to protect myself. I am not a bad guy you see.

Kakashi: I see, so what are you doing here?

Me: I'm looking for Naruto. Do you know by any chance where I can find him?

Kakashi: O he's practicing over there in the training field.

He pointed where it was and I was there in a flash. Naruto was surprised to see me here also. He was so excited that he wanted to battle me to see who's stronger. I'm glad to see he's training hard and I wanted to see if he had improved since the last time we met. But before we begin, I asked him what had happened to Sasuke. He told me that he had joined up with Orochimaru and I was shocked to see a talented guy who had a bloodline limit like me to be so low to join up with Orochimaru. I had lost respect for him. And then that's when Naruto told me that he is training hard to keep up with Sasuke to talk some sense into him.

Me: Don't worry about him Naruto. You will become stronger.

Naruto: I know. I have been training hard.

Me: Hey all this time I thought that Sasuke's name was Sasu-gay

Naruto: No it's not like that. Now can we get the battle started?

Me: O ok. Let me show you what I have been working on.

Naruto: I'll gladly show you mine also….

I started off by changing the field to my advantage. I used the water manipulation.

Water style jutsu: Poseidon's anger

Huge waves crash the field turning it into a lake.

Naruto: Wow! That's a powerful jutsu.

Me: I see that you are surprised.

Naruto: No biggie. I had learned how to walk on water. Now marvel at my technique.

Shadow clone jutsu

Two extra Narutos popped up. I'm pretty smart in finding out tactical stuff and I'm wondering what he's going to do with his clones. One of his clones ran up to me and started attacking me with his taijutsu. I see that his speed increased but it compares nothing to me. I countered by with my taijutsu. I grabbed his arms and locked him. I thought I had him but one other clone got behind me and attacked me.

Thousand years of pain

I felt something fingering through my behind. Pain went through my body as I flew across the sky. I fell underwater and did my next jutsu.

Water style jutsu: Water prison

Two water prison bubbles got his clones. Naruto was smart that he disable his clones.

Naruto: I see that you managed to get my clones.

Me: It's nothing.

I see that he is a one trick pony because he did the same jutsu. Two more clones appeared. He charged at me using taijutsu again. Instead of 1, all three of them charged up at me. They circled me and I was stuck in the middle.

Water style jutsu: Water Dragon Fang

Water Dragons emerged from the waters and attacked Naruto and his clones. What I had not known is that he had 2 more clones hiding behind the trees. They were getting ready for their final jutsu; the rasengan. One hand from one clone is under the hand of the real Naruto swirling to create that powerful jutsu. I was surprised I had not noticed its power. As I was distracted controlling my water dragons attacking the other clones, Naruto with the rasengan charged up at me and delivered a full blow of rasengan. I disappeared. Naruto was confused.

Naruto: What happened?

Me: Hhahahahahaahahahah

I revealed myself from my hiding place in the trees.

Naruto: Oooo… so you used the same trick. I was fighting a water clone.

Me: Correct. You have been fighting my clone and I have been analyzing you.

Naruto: You're very smart.

Me: Thank you. But I was wondering, why attack me with your most powerful jutsu? Did you intend to kill me?

Naruto: No… I was trying to find out what you were capable off.

Me: Hahaha. Now you know. So now let the battle begin.

Naruto: Right on.

Now the real fun starts. I'm fighting against 5 Narutos and I'm wondering what to do. But I did not have time to think because he started the battle over with more shadow clones.

Kage Bunshin jutsu Maximum power

Thousands of clones popped out out of nowhere.

Wind manipulation: Brave Bird slicing wind

The intensity of my jutsu destroyed all his clones in one swoop. Only one left.

Naruto: Wow. That was quick.

Me: I guess so. You used your clone too much.

Naruto: But that's my only technique though. O well. Game Over.

He bit his thumb and pulled out a scroll, and did a summoning spell. He failed and summoned a small frog.

Me: Nice. You learned the summoning spell, but not yet perfected it.

Naruto: Gahhh. Hey frog, go back plz.

The frog grunted and disappeared. Swallowed by disappointment, Naruto went to his last resort move. He unlocked the nine tails inside him and I can see 4 tails bursting out.

Me: Ahh so this is the power I felt back then about a year ago. I feel that it's stronger.

Naruto: Yes, I have been working on it and I still can keep my conscience.

Me: Hmmm I have found a way to beat that but first, let me play with you a bit more.

Naruto: As you wish.

With the speed of light, the force of his punch blew me but I stopped in mid-air.

Water style jutsu: Ice mirror mirage

The same scenario as last time but this has been an upgrade version. He was trapped in my ice mirror mirage. The confused Naruto started attacking the mirror only to find out that they were really mirages and that he could not touch them or me.

Me: Do you know how to defeat me when I'm at this stage?

Naruto: I don't have to. I'll find a way.

So then, I attacked him with speed with my acupuncture needles stabbing him a couple of times like I did to sasuke. That didn't work because the nine tails healing power recovered Naruto. He roared the loudest roar I've ever heard dispelling my mirages.

Naruto: Is that all you got?

Me: Would you like me to show you?

The fun is over, things will get dangerous. I was wondering if I should show him the jutsu I was telling him earlier. I decided then that I should be afraid of the humiliation I would face if I lost.

Water manipulation: Black Hole Whirlpool

Water whirlpools spun around Naruto sucking in his power.

Me: Do you see the effect of this jutsu? It sucks in all the energy of powerful things.

Naruto: S

He grows weaker as the whirlpool spun faster.

Me: Now for the final Jutsu!

Water style jutsu: Water gun

Blasts of water blasted Naruto as he flew and fell back down. I disabled my jutsu and the lake turned back into the field. The weary Naruto laying face down on the ground admits defeat.

Naruto: You've grown stronger. I have to learn a lot from you.

Me: I can teach you a few things. It's fairly easy.

Naruto: Thank you. I need to get stronger in order to get back at sasuke.

Me: No problem. Now I have to get you to the hospital.

Naruto: Thank you.

He smiled then fainted.
