chapter 2
strange new powers
Two weeks ago Naruto uzumaki began seeing spirits of the dead, as well as gain odd new powers, and had an encounter with a spirit mother turning into a spider like creature and attacked her daughter unlocking two new abilities naruto was able to defeat the creature and help a little girl move on to the other side. He has told nobody of what happened. He had spent a great amount of time developing his other new abilities which he inexplicably knew there were more of, naruto was currently training on a small mountai range located 7 miles away from village the mountain was the perfect place to train in secret with his new powers.
"Hado #31 shakaho".
Right as he said that a red sphere the size of a rasengan flew out of his right hand and across the field hitting the target he brought with him right in the middle.
"I did it i can hit the target with perfect accuracy ". He had become very accurate with targets as if it were as simple as using regular kunai, and shuriken.
"Now for the next one, mask of flesh and bone you who bears the name mortal in the name of truth and temperance dig your claws into the walls of sinless dreams hado # 33 sokatsui".
A large yet narrow stream of lightning flew out of his hand and once again it hit it's target perfectly naruto had discovered the spells were more powerful when the right incantation was said but he decided not to use them often as they took too long so he would say the incantations that he somehow knew and see how powerful they would need to be to meet standards then he would train without the incantations until the spells were as powerful as they were with the incantations without them.
"Alright i think that's enough hado for today, now i'll practice bakudo i think my skills with bakudo have been getting rusty".
Naruto soon deduced that this art he was using was called kido, he also analytically realized that there were two types of kido: hado like the two he had previously used were for attack, and the second type was bakudo which was used for defense, and restraint he had become proficient with both, he was able to learn both in only two weeks thanks to his shadow clones and was even able to control them, though he had to use a very limited number of shadow clones for hado because if he used too many of them they would damage the mountain, of course that was taken care of since he practaced hado mostly on target that he brought,and he had excellent control of his kido so he could cancel it out if someone saw him, he could practice however all he wanted with bakudo though since bakudo wasn't as flashy as hado.
"Here it goes...DO IT" he said as one of his clones threw a shuriken at him.
"Bakudo # 4 hainawa".
A long, thin, yet wide yellow string of energy shot out of his finger and caught the shuriken in midair normally the sharp ends of the shuriken would severe a normal thread but hainawa was made of spirit energy so it caught the shuriken very easily.
"Alright i'm really getting good with that one, and now for something harder".
Naruto summoned twenty shadow clones and all of them attacked at once.
"Bakudo # 6 seki".
With a simple verticle block of his right arm a small blue sphere appeared beside it and not only blocked all of the shadow clone's attacks but even repelled, and dispersed them.
"Now i think is a good time to test my defense".
Naruto summoned five more clones who all threw kunai at him at the same time but that's exactly what he wanted he then called out his next technique.
"Bakudo # 73 tozansho".
A large forcefield in the shape of a blue upside down pyramid appeared out of nowhere, the kunai couldn't even match a scratch.
"Awsome and now i think it's time for the final excercise for bakudo".
Naruto created another shadow clone and it knew exactly what do do.
"You know the procedure".
Naruto said to the clone who nodded.
"Hado # 88 hiryugekizokushintenraiho".
The clone proclaimed as an enormous linear blast of light blue lightning shot out of his hand and it was on course to hit naruto.
"Bakudo # 81 danku".
Naruto made a transparent rectangular shield appeared in front of him completely blocking the attack.
"Great danku is as strong as ever well i think that about raps it up for training today, i think i'm as good with kido as i can be, though i am surprised how easily i mastered kido when it took me six years to learn ninjutsu i guess it was to prepare me for this".
"Though i think i'll practice one more hado spell before calling it a day".
Naruto knew the final hado he wanted to practice was more powerful than the others so he had to go to a lower part of the mountain then made his way into a valley and started the incantation as he knew the only way for the spell to be at full power was to use the incantation.
"Seeping crest of turbidity, arrogant vessel of lunacy, boil forth and deny, grow numb and flicker, disrupt sleep, crawling queen of iron, eternally self-destructing doll of mud, unite, repulse, fill with soil and know your own powerlessness, hado # 90 kurohitsugi".
Out of the ground a 30 foot tall purple rectangular prism sprang up as soon as he felt the power level of the spell he cancelled it. Naruto made his way back to konoha he felt the need to rest and he began thinking about his progress.
"Phew that was a great day of training i've made some real progress".
He had discovered that kido works on a higher archy ranging from 1-99 with 99 being the highest level and 1 being the lowest, though he quickly discovered that even a level 1 kido could be deadly when one trained properly. He had also discovered that there was one more catagory of kido and that was barriers he was actually muck better with them than he thought he would be, as well as four more hado spells that had no number which the names of where: kongobaku a giant ball of fire reigned down from the sky; Geki rekko a green jewel like source of energy formed in the sky and four laser colums appear from it's corners and strikes the target from four sides, hyouga soren which changes the terrain of the battle field and freezes the target; and finally jougeki byakurai a faster and red version of byakurai.
He also found a few techniques for making his enemy fall asleep: hakufuku purple sakura petals swirl around the enemy and render them unconcious; inemuri,and tanma otoshi both worked by placing his hand in front of his target's face and knocking them out.
His mind started to wander about some things particularly about that girl who's mother turned into that spider creature he wondered what had happened to her.
"It seemed to be because i couldn't severe that chain and the thought of never being able to be with her daughter again must have caused that transformation i need to find out more".
"RRRRROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOH".
Naruto's thoughts were interrupted when he herd a soothing yet echoing roar he quickly tried to sense the spiritual pressure of whatever was making that noise, he was successful in finding the source what he found astonished him, in a small clearing in the forest naruto saw the spirit of a man who appeared to be in his twenties he had short black hair which seemed to have gel in it seeing as how it was staying in place even though he was running he wore glasses, a blue suit with a white shirt and a red tie the man was obviously a spirit because he had a small length chain in the middle of his chest naruto saw the man was being chased by a creature in fact it was the same creature that woman had turned into.
Well not exactly the same it had a grey body, a short tail, and had the same white truth the creature was actually a rhinoceros.
"There are more of these things, huh great" sighed naruto.
Naruto wasted no time and leapt in to save the man quickly raising his spiritual pressure to lure it away from the man and it seemed to change direction and go after him instead. The rhino charged at naruto while once again howling it's soothing roar.
"RRRRROOOOOOOOH".
"Come and get me you overgrown sack of bones" naruto taunted the creature and his plan worked as the rhino charged him only to smash into a wooden log.
"I have you now".
naruto jumped onto the rhino's head and used a bakudo.
"Bakudo # 21 sekienton".
He put his hands in front of his body and closed his eyes as a red ball formed between his hands and threw it downward at the rhino's face, the rhino thrashed and roared as it was now unable to see.
"RRRRROOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHH".
It tried to shake naruto off but it was unsuccessful, it was here that naruto used another bakudo.
"Bakudo # 63 sajo sabaku".
A golden rope spun out of his hand and he lassoed it around the rhino's horn and began to guide it like a horse, as soon as naruto lead it to a steep cliff a short distance away he guided the rhino off the cliff and jumped off at the last second, the rhino fell to the bottom and gave a loud screech of pain as it was no longer able to move giving naruto the chance to defeat it.
"Hado # 73 soren sokatsui".
Naruto leaped into the air and fired two sokatsui's out of both of his hands, both of them hit the rhino in the head and crossed over to simulate a cross blade effectively cutting off it's head, the creature then disappeared into black ash like made his way back to the man to see if he was okay.
"Are you alright?".
"Yes i'm fine thanks to you".
Naruto thought he might be able to get some information from the spirit.
"Excuse me but what was that thing and why was it chasing you?".
"That creature was a hollow and it was chasing me because it was attracted to my spirit energy".
"A hollow?".
"Yes a hollow is a corrupt spirit who has lost it's heart".
"I'm afraid i don't understand".
"Let me explain then there are two types of spirits: hollows, and wholes, wholes are regular spirits like me, and then there are the hollows you see this chain attached to my chest?".
"yes".
"Good this chain is called the chain of fate, if a human dies with feelings of regret or resentment it is bound to this world and the chain of fate becomes long and connects the spirit to whatever it cannot let go of".
"Just like what happened to that woman" thought naruto.
"If the whole remains here for too long the chain of fate will start to get shorter until it reaches your chest and if it gets to your chest it will rip a hole in your chest and you literally lose your heart, when that happens you take on a transformation, a transformation into a hollow".
Naruto finally understood what happened to the woman, "Not being able to be with her child must be what synthesized her transformation into a hollow" realized naruto.
"A hollow has to consume souls in order to fill the emptiness, but it is never satisfied it will continue to eat souls forever that is why the must be killed".
"How do you know all this?".
"I know this because i have been running from the hollows for six years".
"How are you not a hollow yourself after all that time?".
"I remained a whole because i don't have any feelings of resentment, i died of a heart attack".
"You may have also noticed that a hollow usually the form of an animal though they don't always look like animals the form it takes is different for every hollow".
"Now it all makes sense, thank you for everything you've told me sir".
"No problem, but what do i do now?".
"I have an idea come here" said naruto to the man who complied.
"Bakudo # 73 tozansho".
The blue pyramid enveloped the man as naruto channeled his spirit energy into the edges of the pyramid and they all converged on the man in the center, a light green aura was emanating from the man and his chest was expanding which loosened his chain of fate the spell then dispersed.
"My chest, it feels great i've had some trouble breathing since the day i became a spirit but now it's fine how did you do that?".
"You said you died of a heart attack i just figured your spirit was under stress so i used this trick i discovered with a kido spell to heal you".
Right after naruto explained, the man was then starting to disappear.
"I think i'm moving on to the other side, you did it, thank you please tell me your name".
"Naruto Uzumaki".
"Well, naruto uzumaki you are a true hero and i will be forever thankful to you, fare well" the man said as he man had spoken his last words.
"Good bye" naruto said to himself quietly after looking into the orange sky as the sun set he continued on his way back to the village.
"A lot of people die each day so there will probably be more hollows showing up especially since that rhino hollow will definetly attract more of them, i can't let anyone know about this there's no way ordinary ninjutsu can take on a hollow so when they do come, so i'll have to deal with them on my own" naruto realized.
After a peacful walk back to the village naruto was looking forward to resting up for the night but as he reached the corner of his home he was greeted by kiba,tenten,and hinata.
"Yo naruto how are ya" kiba called.
"Great how about you?" he asked trying to act like his usual self.
"Awsome i just perfected a new jutsu with akamaru and we need a test dummy" kiba inquired while grinning ferociously hoping naruto would accept.
"Oh well that's good although i had an entense day of training so i kinda need to sleep".
"Geez that blows i was really hoping to test that new jutsu" kiba said groaning
"H-Hello naruto" hinata greeted quietly while blushing.
"Good evening hinata" naruto responded politely
"Naruto you look like you've been training non-stop since morning" observed tenten.
"Yeah i have i need to make sure i'm not rusty" said naruto
"Yeah same here" tenten yawned streching her arms.
"So naruto what are you going to do about sasuke now that the raikage has declared him a criminal?" kiba asked seriously.
"I'll think of something, look i'm really tired i should get to sleep" naruto said.
"Oh all right good night then" said tenten
"See you guys later" said naruto as he continued up to his apartment.
"Man what's up with naruto lately?" kiba asked curiously.
"He was acting bit unusual, i'm sure he's fine though" said hinata.
"I'm not sure he's been like this for a couple of weeks now" said kiba questionably.
"Guys give him some space he no doubt has alot on his mind how would you feel if your teammate was suddenly branded a criminal?" asked tenten rhetorically
"Yeah i guess, still he usually dosen't sulk like this, maybe he's going throught something and he isn't telling us" suggested kiba.
"Who knows?" asked tenten
"That's not true naruto wouldn't do that" hinata insisted
"Maybe" said tenten.
Naruto entered his apartment and took a long peaceful shower, and had dinner, after that he had lay awake in his bed thinking about something.
"I still have no idea where these powers came from or what they really are i've become strong with their use but i need to know more about them, tomorrrow i'm going to search for an answer" naruto decided it was time to gather some information.
