Chapter three
"So the assault team made it through level 28" said Jax as he Star, Naruto and Sasuke sat in a tree deep in a forest.
"They would go faster if we helped" said Star.
"Were still looking for beta players and leveling up ourselves. I won't risk a single man until I feel we can take whatever lies ahead " said Naruto.
"We still need to furnish our guild's lodging" said Sasuke.
"Isn't that what we're doing?" asked Star.
"No, we're waiting for the twins to get their armor and get here" said Naruto. The group now donned a full set of armor that looked exactly like Konoha's anbu armor. Star wielded a large scythe while the others had tantos or short swords with no guard and black wrapping to act as a grip. Their armor was the basic grey color while their clothes were all black, each wearing a long sleeve shirt, loose black pants that were tied down with white tape that connected with open toed combat boots. All members of the group under Naruto and Sasuke wore plain white masks while Naruto and Sasuke opted to wear only red scarf's to signal them as the leader.
"How many times can we level up this armor and our weapon?" asked Jax as the twins landed near the group.
"We have yet to reach a limit and our swords differ from yours so I don't know" said Sasuke and he and the others stood.
'Where too?' signed Kiji.
"To level 27, time for some dungeon raiding" said Naruto with a smile before disappearing in a burst of speed and the others quickly followed. Along with their group a few other members were moving on different dungeons or caves to gather funds and power level.
Level 27 dungeon
"You know some others are getting close to finding the last few beta players" said Sasuke as they wandered the dungeon.
"Once we finish with those that want to join we'll make the guild official and get a guild building. I think a group should contact us today about the last player" said Naruto before a chat message appeared.
"There they are" said Naruto before he played the chat.
"Sir, we have talked to the last thirty beta's, twenty seven agreed to join but the other three were already in a guild with friends. As of now we have seven hundred fifty seven members and we have talked to all the players."
"Good, now we've talked to everyone we can officially start the guild. There is a new rule you need to spread, the lowest level you can be is sixty by Christmas. Don't power level alone, go in your groups. Good luck" said Naruto before the chat ended and he sent a guild invite to all members.
"So you stick with the name ANBU, huh?" said Sasuke as he accepted the invite.
"You know with such a large guild mostly made up of beta players it will cause quite a stir" said Jax.
"We'll be ok, we need to wear black cloaks at all times now. I don't want anyone seeing the armor and spotting us to soon if we attract to much attention later on" said Naruto as he sent what he said through a voice message to the guild. Once he did his own group equipped their own black cloaks and continued forward only for Naruto to stop again.
"What is it?" asked Sasuke.
"Someone threw a hiraishin kunai down" said Naruto surprising the others. It had only happened once before with Asuna and that was the day her clearing party was all but decimated, even Naruto came back severely injured.
"Go on, we meet you at the hideout" said Sasuke before Naruto disappeared.
Floor 26 town
The first thing Naruto saw was the town of level 26 as he reappeared then he looked down to see Lisbeth. The kunai she was given was stuck into the ground next to her and it was obvious she had been crying.
"What's wrong Lisbeth-chan?" asked Naruto as he sat down next to her, handing her the kunai and she pocketed it.
"All…..all my friends died in a dungeon raid a while ago. They sent me here with a warp crystal before I saw their names disappear from my friends list" said Lisbeth before she buried her head on her legs. Naruto sighed then picked her up and set her in his lap before speaking.
"I know it hurts but at least they felt no real pain, it was not a horrible death. They did their best to save you so make it count."
"B-but…how can I-I do that a..alone?" asked Lisbeth.
"You are never lone, you have me, the entire guild and Asuna. There are plenty of people that can help you. Why don't you stay with us for a while, at least until you can get back on your feet" said Naruto as he stood with her in his arms.
"I don't want to be a burden."
"That's impossible" said Naruto before they disappeared.
ANBU hideout
Naruto reappeared in front of nearly three hundred men and women sitting on large tables inside of a cave.
"Everyone, Lisbeth here is going to stay with us for a bit while she gets back on her feet after losing her friends. Does that sound like a good idea?"
All the members shot up into attention, saluting him "Hai, taicho!"
"Then it's settled, she's staying!" said Naruto and people clapped a bit in support for her before going back to what they were previously doing.
Sasuke walked up to Lisbeth and patter her shoulder "Sorry for your loss. If you need anything just ask anyone." Lisbeth nodded her head then Naruto spoke to her.
"Sorry I'm asking you this but do you specialize in anything?"
"I was learning how to become a weapons and armor smith."
"Good, that will help me in where to put you. We have a few smiths here that can teach you what they know. They are at the other side of the cave so just go over there, introduce yourself and let them know is sent you" said Naruto before he walked towards the entrance to the extremely large cave where fully cloaked figure stood.
"What's up?" asked Naruto.
"Not having a lock on this place is dangerous, getting a bit overconfident" said the cloaked figure with a clearly feminine voice.
"There's over 300 men here at all times, I doubt anyone could get far no matter who they were" said Naruto.
"Either way, there's a new guild house that opened up but it's on level 57. Do you want to wait or look for something smaller now?"
"Is there anywhere we can get a large housing building for now?"
"There's one in the forest with four large areas, it's a watered down version of the castle on level 57. Want me to get that one?" asked the woman.
"I'll get it myself from the dealer. I need to reserve the other one as well while I'm there" said Naruto before the woman left and Sasuke walked up.
"What did you decide on?"
"I'll get an area a ways from here and one the system showed us from a higher level. So now our guild and the knights of the blood oath own a large guild hall in a higher level."
"I'll stay here, you going alone?" asked Sasuke.
"Yeah, I can move quicker like that if I go on foot" said Naruto before he excited the cave then took off towards the town in a burst of speed. The interesting thing about the forest was it was a teleport restricted zone so no one could do a hit and run on them. However, as he neared the edge of the forest Naruto dropped down in front of two figures. Both donned white and red armor that signaled themselves as Knights of the Blood Oath.
"What do you need?" asked Naruto.
"As representatives from the Knights of the Blood Oath we extend an invitation for you and your friends to join us" said the man as he held a hand out to him, the woman next to him staying silent. Then, in an instant Naruto was behind the man his tanto at his throat.
"Subdue" said Naruto before a figure tackled the woman from above, tying up her hands and Naruto followed suit with the taller man as two ANBU members appeared next to him.
"Good thing you guys were here, it may have gotten a bit ugly if I didn't have backup to subdue them" said Naruto as one of the two men took the man.
"We'll interrogate them sir and see who they really are and why there here" said one member before Naruto nodded his head and restarted his trek into town. He arrived at the town head office, walked inside and spoke to the NPC.
"I need to buy the guild house in level 22 and the guild castle in level 57."
"Payments taken out sir, the keys are in your inventory. Have good day" said the automated villager before he walked out of the building. Naruto got lost in thought as he looked up briefly towards the sky causing him to bump into someone doing the same thing.
"Sorry about that" said Naruto as he looked down to see Kirito and noticed the guild sign next to his name.
"How have you been? I see you've finally joined a guild" said Naruto and Kirito looked down.
"Yeah…."
"Look, don't be so down. You're doing good joining a low level guild to help them out" said Naruto surprised he knew it was a low level guild.
"I have over 750 plus member, I get news from nearly every level. Stay safe and if you ever need me you know how to reach me" said Naruto before patting him on the back and walking off.
"I…uh…thank you" said Kirito and Naruto waved at him as he continued to walk off. Once Kirito was out of sight he spoke seemingly to nothing.
"Keep watch when there nearby the city, just in case" said Naruto and a few cloaked figures nodded their heads before blending back into the shadows.
"Thank you" said the blond before continuing his walk. The way back held no enemies until he approached the cave they were suing. He walked in to see some members tying up some players while others were consoling a few of their own.
"What happened?" Naruto asked Sasuke as he walked up tot im.
"It appears out current location was found out, some other players want this cave for their own but they underestimated our numbers severely. This part was rather ruthless, going for the kill the instant they were found. They caught one by surprise but after that we took them out, a few players had never taken a life before so their having a rough time" said Sasuke, motioning to the ones being consoled.
"If only it was another hour or so later everything would have been fine" said Naruto as he stepped forwarded.
"Alright, attention!" shouted Naruto and every member present stood up in standard form, hands to their sides, heads held high and feet together.
"We're heading to the guild hall across the forest, get packed. We leave in one hour" said Naruto and everyone saluted before moving to gather their things. Once everyone was packed they all moved as one, every member of Naruto's guild traveled across the forest and met up at the new guild base. The guild hall was something they weren't expecting, three massive sections were standing in the middle of a grassy plain part of the forest. The two side blocks were a bit taller while the center one was longer than the two adjacent to it. From the buildings was a small 300 yard safe zone, no one could harm one another and no one could be attacked by any outside source. The safe zone also was different than any other they had seen, this one stopped any teleport crystals being used inside the zone for non-guild members to prevent hit and run attacks.
"Not bad, I hope the other one doesn't set us in the middle of a field like this one" said Sasuke as they walked inside, exploring the layout. The center building had one massive gathering room, a small command room ahead of that and six large rooms for the leaders above it. The other buildings beside it were specifically for rooms and extra space for equipment and items to make equipment.
"All blacksmiths, get the bottom rooms on the left building, the rest will is up to you but you should all be at least on the same floor as your squad" said Naruto.
"What is a squad leader?" asked Lisbeth as she and Naruto walked her to the sixth room in the center building, the guest bedroom.
"A leader of the multiple squads our guild is made up of. Each squad of five to eight members has one squad leader and a back up leader to keep them in line. My group is composed of the captains, while Sasuke and I the head captains. We are in full control of every member, each captain is responsible for a set amount of squads so the squad leaders have someone to report to. Here's your room, the guest bedroom" said Naruto as he motioned to the door at the far left of the hallway. My room is to my right, Sasuke's to our left, the twins next to mine, Jax across from that and across from yours is Star's room. We knew the basic layout of the guild hall so we decided where we would stay already and just incorporated a guest bedroom" said Naruto.
"Thank you again Naruto-kun" said Lisbeth as she quickly hugged him then ran inside her room.
"She liiiiiiiikes you" said Star teasingly. Naruto shoved the blood girl away from him and started to walk back.
"Let's go star, we've got something to do" said Naruto.
"Like?"
"There have been some scouts finding some players towards the beginning of the forest. We may have some intruders, the other captains have already gathered outside the guild hall." The two walked silently until they were outside where the others stood waiting.
"Let's move, we'll talk on the way" said Naruto before they took off into the forest to the left, jumping from tree branch to tree branch.
"Do we know anything about them?" asked Jax.
"There are five of them, one apparently looks stronger than the others by a lot" said Sasuke before they neared the group.
"Surround them" said Naruto before everyone split up.
With Kirito
He had recently joined a low ranking guild after helping them defeat an enemy well out of their league. It was a small guild but they were all close friends so it felt more at home than a larger guild.
"The hunting ground is pretty empty today" said Sachi as they wandered the forest until Kirito saw something.
"Group together" shouted the black haired boy as they group scooted into a tight circle. As soon as they did they were surrounded by six black cloaked figures, each with a hood covering their face.
"Ah, so it's just you Kirito" said a figure as it dropped down and walked forward. As he took his first few steps on the ground a blond haired boy rushed him, sword in hand. One second he was charging at Naruto and the next Naruto was behind him, back to back with the boy.
"Your courageous but you've got a ways to go before you can challenge me" said Naruto. The boy seemed frozen in fear as he dropped his weapon and fell to his knees.
"Stay your blade" said Naruto as Kirito stepped forward, his sword already out.
"Who are you?" asked the self proclaimed beater.
Naruto chuckled then removed his hood "Long time no see." Kirito visible relaxed, letting out a sigh as he sheathed his sword.
"You scared the hell out of me and my guild" said Kirito as a few members went to help the blond boy.
Naruto shrugged "We thought you were intruders, your own fault."
"Sir, I just got a message that our guest as run away and left the kunai" said Jax.
"Shit, Kirito best of luck. Everyone spread out and scan every inch of this forest. Tell any free members to help out to!" shouted Naruto before everyone took off in a different direction.
Lisbeth
The pink haired mace wielder walked alone on a shady dirt road, towering trees surrounding her. She heard something and shifted her gaze from the dirt to an anbu member in front of her.
"What do you want?" asked Lisbeth.
"I want to know why you left" said Sasuke as he took off his hood.
"I'm only a burden, there's no reason for me to stay" said the woman and Sasuke shook his head.
"Your much more than that to him, a burden is the farthest thing from everyone's mind about you, especially Naruto. After all, you remind him of his childhood oh so long ago" said Sasuke, his mind wandering to the time before time began, his first home's time.
"What do you mean oh so long ago?" asked Lisbeth.
"I always thought I would be the one to slip up, it seems time has taken its toll on us all" said Naruto as he jumped down from a tree branch above them.
"Do you think we should tell her?" asked Sasuke and Naruto shrugged.
"We've already hinted at it, I see no harm in it if she accepts the conditions."
"Conditions?" asked Lisbeth before Naruto placed a hand on her shoulder and they disappeared in a flash.
Lisbeth's room
"If you chose to accept this information, the threat of leaking information is high. If you tell anyone we will take care of both of you with any means necessary. Is that understood?"
Lisbeth gulped "Y-yes, I do."
Naruto smiled "Good, now take a seat. This is going to be an extremely long story."
Two hours later
Lisbeth sat in stunned silence as a glowing ball of what Naruto called chakra spun in his right hand. Then it dissipated and he dropped his arm before speaking.
"Believe that crazy story now?" asked Naruto and the pink haired girl nodded her head. Naruto didn't tell her his complete past just major points, what led to them being immortal, and the basis of chakra.
"Good, now were going to get you some combat practice with that new weapon of yours" said Naruto before he grabbed her arm, leading her to the training ground.
June 2023
Naruto watched as a level 50 anbu member sparred with Lisbeth.
"Good form but keep your legs closer" said Naruto to Lisbeth as she made minor adjustments during the match. However, she loosened her grip on her mace for a second but when she did her opponent swung. The attack knocked the weapon from her hand and continued on its path. Quicker than either could follow they were pushed apart by Naruto, the anbu sliding to a stop and Lisbeth stumbling back.
"You also need to work on your attacks, your using too much force when you swing. It's not an ax, it's a tanto so treat it as such" said Naruto before he felt the pull of a kunai after it was thrown down. He expanded his senses around the kunai's seal, sensing a mass of enemies around it. In an instant he appeared behind Sasuke, his hand on Sasuke's shoulder.
"Emergency, someone threw a kunai down" said Naruto before they disappeared once more.
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
The area changed from a small room where Sasuke was to a room filled with a variation of enemies with Kirito in the middle.
"Shit" whispered the two before they ran to Kirito and stood back to back, surrounded on all sides.
"How did you get into this?" asked Sasuke.
"A guild mate opened a trap room, next thing I know they come out, kill them then come after me" said Kirito, his demeanor seemingly dark.
"Well, the only option now is to fight so let's get to it!" shouted Naruto before they rushed their opponents.
A few minutes later
Naruto and Sasuke stood across form Kirito outside of the trap room.
"I'm going to power level for a bit guys, I'll see you around" said Kirito.
"Wait, we'll help you level up. There's a group of ours outside, they planned to power level for a while too. Go with them, they have the map where the best spot to fight high numbers of tough enemies are so you guys can level up faster. Let them know we sent you, they'll let you tag along" said Naruto.
"Thanks guys….for everything" said Kirito before he ran off down the hall.
"You know he's going to do something stupid at some point when he's like that" said Sasuke and Naruto nodded his head.
"I know, I'm just waiting for a message to come in telling me he ran off to do something he shouldn't" said Naruto before they left the dungeon.
December 20th
"Sir, Kirito has told us to let you know he's going after the revival item the 25th and to meet him at the tallest fir tree" said an anbu member that helped Kirito power level.
"Thank you, you may return to your group" said the blond before the operative disappeared in a blue light.
"Sasuke, we need to go!" shouted Naruto as his friend walked in.
"Where to?" asked Sasuke.
"The tallest fir tree in five days, Kirito said to meet there and we'll help him get the revival item. Keep your stuff ready, we'll leave in a few days" said Naruto before both left to do runs around the guild hall.
December 25th near the fir tree
Naruto, Sasuke and Kirito walked through the snowy area, making their way towards the fir tree.
"It's not much further" said Sasuke as they entered a fairy large clearing. Then one of Kirito's friends, Klein and his guild appeared next to them.
"Whoa, hey man! Here for the item too?" asked Klein. Kirito's response was to place a hand on his sword and Klein's guild tensed.
"Easy guys, no reason to get hostile" said Klein before Naruto spoke.
"There's more" and then the Divine Dragon Alliance appeared behind Klein's guild.
"Klein, take your guild to help Kirito but don't take that drop. We'll hold them off" said Naruto as he and Sasuke stepped forward.
"I can do it on my own" said Kirito.
"I don't care if you can or not just go!" shouted Naruto before they left to fight the boss.
"You think you can hold us off?" asked the leader. Naruto and Sasuke's demeanor changed drastically, gone was the calm look, now they both wore insane grins as Naruto channeled Kurama's chakra and Sasuke activated his sharingan. Their eyes shifting scared some making the two only chuckle a bit as Naruto pulled out his hiraishin kunai and Sasuke pulled out his sword, holding it in a reverse grip.
"The real question is will we let you all live?" asked Naruto before he threw a kunai.
A few minutes later
A down trodden Kirito and Klein's guild walked out and they were shocked at the damage they saw. The ground was scorched, weapons lay scattered and trees were either knocked over or barely standing.
"What happened out here?" asked Klein, wondering how they burned the ground in a sword based game and took down trees which were 'immortal objects.'
Naruto smirked "Just teaching children their place." Klein gulped a bit and flinched along with the rest of his guild.
"So was the drop good?" asked Sasuke and Kirito looked upset once more.
"It revives a player only 10 second after they die" said the boy. Quicker than he could follow Naruto appeared in front of him, embracing him with a hug.
"You'll be ok kid, we'll all be here if you need us. Got that?" asked Naruto as he let go of the boy and Kirito nodded his head.
"Let's go, I'm tired" said Sasuke before placing a hand on Naruto's shoulder and they disappeared in a blue light, using a teleport crystal instead of the hiraishin since Klein's guild was there.

January 2
"Haha, then….. then I ran from everyone for nearly ten minutes" said Naruto laughing with Lisbeth as Sasuke leaned on the wall, a smile on his face.
"Captain commander!" shouted someone from the front entrance. Naruto stopped laughing then stood as Sasuke opened the door to the main hall. In front of the entrance room was an anbu on her knee's while two raggedy cloaked men stood on either side, execution blades behind the anbu's neck. With speed no one else present could follow Naruto and Sasuke had slammed the two to the ground.
"What are you doing here?" asked Naruto as he held tanto to the cloaked mans throat.
"Laughing coffin sent us to deliver a message, no one is safe" said the man before he dissipated into pixels, his companion following suit as both ninja ended their lives.
"Someone take care of her, Jax tell every group outside to watch for anyone dressed up like they were. I want any information we can get on them as soon as possible" said Naruto and his group went into action.
February 23
"Captain commander, a low level guild was killed by titans hand. Do you wish for us to follow them?" asked Jax as he stood around a large table with the other captains.
"Shi is in the area, I believe he can take care of it but I'll go just in case. Sasuke, keep tabs on Lisbeth for me" said Naruto and Sasuke nodded his head before the blonde left the guild hall meeting room and began his walk to the town the orange guild was in.
February 24
Naruto stood at the entrance to the floor, his eyes closed as he sensed for his targets.
"There you are" said Naruto before he disappeared in a burst of speed no other player could follow. He reappeared behind Rosalia, shocking those that were attacking Kirito.
"Not bad, you could have finished faster though" said Naruto as he turned to face Kirito in front of Rosalia.
"That's…. that's one of the gods of SAO!" said one of the men.
Naruto sighed "I still can't believe that name stuck."
"Whatever, I'll show them" said one man as he turned then ran at the little girl Kirito was with. Faster than the man, or anyone besides Kirito expected, Naruto appeared above him, slamming him to the ground with a powerful kick to the back. Naruto stood between the downed man and the girl as he placed a hand on his sword that protruded just barely behind his right shoulder.
"Anyone else feeling brave?" asked Naruto and no one dared move.
"Very well, if you all comply we'll just send you to jail rather than kill you" said Naruto. With Naruto present they all complied and now only Naruto, Kirito and Silica were left.
"Thanks for the help" said Silica in a chipper tone.
"Go ahead and head to the apartment, I'll meet you there" said Kirito and the small blonde girl nodded her head then left.
"So Shi, how have things been?" asked Naruto. Kirito wasn't a member of his guild but they referred to him as Shi in respect to his skills. Currently, only Naruto and Sasuke could keep themselves mostly unharmed when fighting him.
"I've been well, thanks for asking. Are you done searching for beta players?"
"Yeah, we finished a while ago. I must be off, a friend of mine is opening a shop soon."
"Alright, see you later" said the smaller boy before Naruto disappeared using his hiraishin.
March 1
Naruto, Sasuke, Lisbeth Naruto's squad and nearly one hundred anbu filled the small street, all facing a small two story building. Lisbeth walked up and slowly put a key in the door and opened it before everyone cheered.
"C'mon everyone, let's get this place up and running!" shouted Naruto as they helped her set things up inside. From items they gave to her to sell or materials to build more items, they brought it all. Thirty minutes later they were outside the store again, Lisbeth standing in front while facing the crowd.
"Lisbeth's smith shop is now open for business!" said the pink haired girl ecstatically as they applauded once more. She got many congratulations and gifts before only Sasuke and Naruto remained.
Sasuke handed her a shield but it was an off silver color "That's made out of a rare metal from floor 52 I found a while ago."
Lisbeth took the item and placed it on her back "Thank you, Sasuke."
Naruto stepped forward "I've got two gifts actually. One is this, a custom mace with +33 damage to any higher level opponent and +15 to all others." Naruto handed her the mace that was shaped the same as all the others but it was nearly solid black, she smiled then put it on her hip holster.
"What's the seco-" Lisbeth was cut off as Naruto pressed his lips to hers, silencing her. It lasted no longer than a few seconds but those few seconds were heavenly. Naruto pulled back then gave her a big grin. Lisbeth's eyes watered a bit, she sniffled as they did then hugged him tightly.
"Thank you" she whispered in his ear before kissing him on the cheek as they separated then ran inside.
"So, it's official then?" asked Naruto.
"Lisbeth cracked the door open, a big smile on her face "Of course!"
"Awesome, now we best get going. Our presence will scare customers" said Naruto before he and Sasuke left.
"With it official and her alone we need to have a constant guard watch" said Naruto and Sasuke nodded his head.
"There's a team that runs through this town multiple times a day, they'll check up on her" said Sasuke.
March 8th
"So we'll use the NPC's as bait then" said Asuna.
"Just because there not living beings doesn't mean we can treat them like that" responded Kirito. Both stood around the front lines assault team members.
"He's right, try thinking outside the box on this one" said Naruto as he and Sasuke walked in, the room going deathly silent.
"What are you two doing here?" asked a knight of the blood oath, his eyes showing a large amount of fear them. No one on the front assault team looked highly upon them though, they refused to help them clear levels even though they were the biggest high ranking guild.
"Enough, they gained there title respectively. They deserve our respect" said Asuna.
"Thank you, before helping your plan Sasuke and I are here to say something. We agree to help you clear floors, a group of over 300 anbu is on standby.
"What about all the others?" asked one man angrily, upset knowing they had many more men.
"We have them in small groups patrolling all levels to insure players are not going around killing others outside safe zones. We are in essence the police and relief group but there are now enough men leveled up and geared for battle. We have come to help finish this game as quickly as possible with a group of highly skilled players" said Naruto.
"Very well, what's your plan of attack?" asked Asuna.
"Sasuke and I will see how this beast fights while the rest of you scout the village. There may be a huddle clue to defeating the field boss" said Sasuke.
"If you wish, all group leaders may watch us while the rest look around the city" said Naruto and they all seemed to speak amongst themselves and Asuna spoke first.
"Fine, but if you get hit even once we're going back and doing it our way" said Asuna, both men nodded their heads in acceptance.
"Fair enough, my anbu are already searching the city so let's go" said Naruto before they left. A few minutes later they stood at the entrance to the field boss cavern.
"Only one hit" said Naruto as he leaned down, his hand moving to the hilt of his sword.
"Only one hit" said Sasuke as he imitated Naruto before they charged the beast. As they neared it the monster awoke before moving straight at them.
"We need to help them!" shouted Asuna as she moved but Kirito stood in her way.
"They're capable on their own" said Kirito. Asuna and her guards moved forward but stopped when he pulled out his sword and stabbed it into the ground, putting the others on edge. You didn't get as far as they did soloing by being weak. They backed up and he sheathed his sword then turned to see Naruto and Sasuke standing by the wall. They cocked their fists back before punching the rock, causing it to rumble. Parts of the wall cracked up before falling down on the beast. As it lay immobile they jumped over the rocks, disappearing from view completely to attack out of others sights.
"Chidori" said Sasuke in a soft tine as he slammed his lighting covered hand through the chell of the beast, causing only 1/3 of one heath bar to deplete.
"So the shell is supposed to be impenetrable unless we get drastic. We need to slid under and see about his stomach" said Sasuke and Naruto nodded his head before the moved back to face the beast head on. Once they had moved to face it the monster shook off the rubble then charged them again as they drew their weapons. While it did both leaned forward, letting it get closer and closer. Twenty feet, fifteen, ten, five, two.
"Disappear" said Kirito quietly so only Asuna heard it before the two vanished. No blurred image, no indication they were there, just disappeared. Then the beast screeched in pain before shooting itself backwards quickly. Once it had made it back a few hundred feet it revealed Naruto and Sasuke, they had run under it and stabbed it's stomach.
"We've figured out a weakness but it would still take too long to defeat. That and no one else could to that but us since we have the speed necessary to move that fast. Let's pull back for now" said Naruto and Sasuke nodded his head before they appeared next to the spectator group.
"It's underbelly is weak but no one else can do that but us so I still think there's more too it" said Naruto before an anbu appeared next to him.
"Sir, we believe to have found a way to defeat it. They are gathering out way now" said the anbu before a mass of front line players and other anbu member's teleport to them.
"There was a quest we found that gave us a flue, we thought maybe we could lull it to sleep" said one man as he pulled out a flute and walked forward. As he did Naruto and Sasuke flanked him, acting as guards if it didn't work. Slowly, the beast crawled out and the man began to play. The strange creature slowed its charge before rolling over fifty feet from the three, fast asleep.
"Don't stop playing, everyone charge!" shouted Sasuke before they full might of the assault team rained down. Cutting, slashing, stabbing at it until he shattered into pixels and the man ceased his playing.
"What'd I tell you?" said Naruto as he smiled at Asuna who only sighed tiredly.
Well, that's the long awaited and not so good new chapter. Sorry it isn't too good, I've had a bit of trouble writing this. Have a good day everyone and let me know what you think of it! :D
