Hey everyone, another chapter all for you! and WHOA!! it's only been a few hours and i got story and author alerts like crazy! O.o never knew i could be that good Anyway I'm hoping for another good run here, and i gave you an action cliffy last time but this time it's mostly action, and some flashbacks, and also we learn more about the other characters i put in. also if you noticed i put in Larxene from KH2.. it's because i like her a little, and know she's really a good person XD
Enough of the Pre-story audio i think XD but nah, some Review Answers!!!
Kyuubi-Sama (Anon.) Sakura is being tortured.. slowly... MWUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA =D Ino on the other hand got a quick bash before i decide to kick her where it hurts, and then watch her scream =DD *thunder clashes as i laugh evilly* Sorry, like i said Ino/Sakura bashing in this story. Lee will do the final bashing on Sakura and decide to hook up with one of the losers of the poll i set up.. (kind of hoping FemGaara...but it's the choice of the readers.) Ino though will have a chance to redeem herself later in the story i promise... although Kurenai and Anko in the Harem is not going to happen, it's a small harem, that means 5 only, maybe 6 if i feel like it. (why i said pick two. you picked Temari first chapter i guess, so pick another man!!)
Also to those of you who Choose OC, whoever sounds better fit to be in my plot will be inside the story, sorry to say.
Anyway on with the chapter...
Starto!!
GHGHGHGHGHGHGHGHGHGHGHGHGHGHGHGHGHGHGHGHGHGHG
"I AM NOT WORSE THAN TRASH!!!!" Kakashi had finally gone full out, and that was what Naruto wanted. Kakashi's Katana was a blur of speed, being swung side, up, another up to a sideways and diagonal left, and Naruto had trouble dodging it all, but he was thankful his style was mostly Defense, always there to block, and his arm able to back up the strength of the opponent to a complete stop.
Kakashi had backed Naruto up a few hundred steps as they dances in sparks and blades. Kakashi was getting tired of this and twisted, using momentum and his fierce power to strick Naruto, but Naruto was ready, and twisted to the side, and stood stern. his blade blocked Kakashi's easily, and this dis-orientated Kakashi very much so, where he didn't move until he set foot onto the ground. He moved just as he could because Naruto used Kakashi's strength against him, ducking down and rushing the Jounin.
Naruto was behind Kakashi now, his blade along his arm, pointing to Kakashi. a blood splattered along the ground between them, and they turned, still in stance.
Kakashi grunted slightly as his side was cut, not badly, but bad enough to stop soon. Naruto took this opportunity of a stand still with Kakashi to mock him a little more. "You didn't care for your teammates until one of them knocked some sense into you."
Kakashi ignored his pain as once again his anger rose, and his attack continued. Naruto blocked the first blow easily. "Obito told you that rule..." Kakashi's second strike was faster, but still easily blocked. "Obito went to save Rin, while leaving you to your thoughts..." The third strike made Naruto lose his stance for a second as his arm vibrated from the third blow, leaving a slight sting. "And Obito died because you didn't care until he told you it!" Kakashi's fourth strike ended with Naruto's shoulder being slashed half-way through. Naruto was able to stop it with his, but barely enough to keep the arm moving.
Kakashi was furious now, and not going to forgive Naruto... Even if he was his Sensei's Son. "YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT YOUR TALKING ABOUT!!! OBITO WAS MY FRIEND!!!" Naruto swung the blade off his shoulder, and swung at Kakashi, who dodged quickly. "HE ONLY BECAME YOUR FRIEND WHEN HE WAS DYING!!!"
Kakashi and Naruto exchanged blades once more, struggling to end it. "I DIDN'T KNOW ANY BETTER BEFORE THEN!!!" Naruto ended it, and swung for Kakashi's head, missing by a hair. "AND APPARENTLY NOT NOW EITHER!!!" Kakashi twisted from the second downward thrust from Naruto's strike, and swung for Naruto's arm again, missing as Naruto blocked it again. "I CARED FOR YOU ALL!!!" Naruto stopped it once more, again and again they exchanged blades, blocking, dodging, and everyone watching had sympathy for them both, and knew of Naruto's pain as well as Kakashi's.
"ALL YOU TAUGHT ME WAS TO WALK UP TREE'S!!!" Kakashi barely dodged as his blade clashed against Naruto's sideward swing. "I ALSO PLEADED FOR YOU TO BE ON THE TEAM!!!" Naruto dodged to the right of the leftward swing to the ground. "WITH SAKURA WHO ATTEMPTED TO KILL ME-" Naruto's sword dented into Kakashi's a little as he aimed for the head, missing. "-AND SASUKE WHO PUT A CHIDORI THROUGH MY CHEST!!!" Kakashi's blade was cut in half, and Naruto's, who's blade cut it, was now at Kakashi's throat as Kakashi was laid on the ground.
Time stood still as the two locked eyes, anger and pain filling both...
Kakashi was first to speak. "I cared for you Naruto-kun... I poured every piece of my blood and tears into making sure you had a Teammate you could trust with your life. It's true i failed, and Sasuke defected, but i tried to stop him myself... But before i could come back and see how he felt after my talk... He defected." Naruto stood still, completely un-lenient, as he listened to his Sensei. Kakashi sprouted a few tears... "When Sakura was on the verge of accepting you, it was me who tried to talk to her, but she didn't listen... When she tried to kill you after Sasuke defected, it was me who stopped her... When your teammates stopped you, i tried to help you... I'm sorry Naruto-kun, i truly am... but it isn't all my fault for failing you, it was also your team, who i tried to help in order for you to be accepted. I wish for your forgiveness. You can hate me for the rest of your life, for what I've done, but please... forgive me."
Naruto stood up, retracted his clean, and undamaged blade. Naruto smiled, soft eyes looking into the pained ones of Kakashi. "I forgive you Kakashi-Sensei... And i don't hate you. All i wanted was for you to know, that you should never give up on your team, even when they don't listen. My Tou-san never gave up on you and Obito and Rin just because you were like us. He gave everything to help you, and he did manage to change you."
Kakashi saw Naruto hold out his hand, and in that gesture,... he knew he was forgiven, and accepted it, being hoisted up on his feet before being hugged by Naruto. At first it gave him a shock, but then he smiled and held Naruto back, knowing his adopted Otouto only wanted to help Kakashi with his self doubts. Most of them didn't understand what happened, or what was going on truthfully, Mainly TenTen and Neji, but the others did. Gai actually wanted to cry, for real, this time for his comrade/rival. he didn't deserve such accusations, even if they were true. But he did need to know it for himself somehow.
After it all became sober, and the crying, pain, and happiness ended for the time being, Kakashi stepped away to go see his Sensei while Naruto gone through his Weapon's training.
In the Streets of Konoha.
Beikiju sighed as she enjoyed her stroll through town. Yesterday she didn't enjoy it, because she was so obsessed with trying to find a water source of some kind, being so used to water in Tsuchi. After finding none, she thought maybe she should accept being in Konoha, seeing as it WAS Naruto's home. After thinking that she decided it wasn't so bad accepting another Village. Actually it might be fun!
She did enjoy her night better, as she got to know how Nature felt like in a forest instead of a cave of water. It was kind of relaxing, and the smells were great, almost like perfume all around her, and she loved it. Today she was going to get to know as many good places in this place as possible before searching for Naruto.
While searching she found a smell, something so heavenly she almost ran into five people while turning corners to find it. And find it she did, in the shape of a small shop with the name Ichiraku... She didn't rush this time, savoring the smell as she entered the shop. When she arrived she saw two people , a rather cute girl and apparently her father who seemed like a pretty tough character, but with that smile he was as gentle as a sleeping cat. She sat down and looked up, closing her eyes and smelling the aroma once more. Teuchi noticed her after she sat down and smiled, loving the early service to the shop. He didn't usually get customers this early in the day. "Well hey there little lady, welcome to Ichiraku Ramen. What can i get ya?" Beikiju looked at the menu and licked her lips. I'll have a Miso, Pork and a large Beef ramen please."
Teuchi started the ramen for the large bowl as he got the cooked ramen out for the two other bowls. Ayame gave the girl a glass of water. "Here you go, waters on the house." Beikiju thanked the girl as she got her first two bowls. She grabbed some sticks, all while smelling the sweet scent of ramen before she started to eat. She took that first bite, and her eyes widened and almost popped out of her head...
"AMAZING!!!" After that exclamation she was slurping up the noodles wantonly. Not as fast or as much as others did, mostly Naruto, but she did gulp it down more then normal folk. after eating her first bowl she was about to dig into her next. "This is the best ramen i ever tasted! it's almost like your a gift from Kami!!" She was just about to eat the first bite of her next bowl, when suddenly she remembered something...
Flashback in Taki
Naruto and Beikiju were eating ramen in Taki's one and only shop, Horuman Ramen. Although Beikiju was eating excitedly, Naruto wasn't. Sure he ate, but not like he usually did. Beikiju looked over to Naruto, and she just felt something off... "What's the Matter Naruto-san? i thought you liked ramen. " Naruto turned to his friend and smiled. "I do, it's just the ramen in Konoha is better." Beikiju was slightly annoyed by that. "I bet you my greatest Jutsu your old ramen shop is no-where NEAR as good as this one!"
Naruto laughed at that. "If you ever come to Konoha, search for Ichiraku. trust me, you'll be teaching me your Jutsu after the first bite!" Beikiju smiled wickedly. "You're on! Besides, i bet there's not a thing about that place better then here." Naruto ate his ramen again, knowing Ichiraku was better. Beikiju was wondering if it was or not, seeing as his Sensei said he usually ate it in giant bites, and even slurped it like no other food around.
End Flashback
Beikiju smiled "Do you know a boy by the name of Naruto?" She slowly started to eat the other bowl, savoring the taste. Teuchi laughed as his daughter smiled. "It would be a shame if we didn't. he's our number one customer! i even see him as a son." Beikiju laughed at that. "Well it's good to see such nice folks, and good to know he enjoys this place. I can see why as the ramen is delicious." Teuchi thanked the girl as Ayame started to get the other bowl ready. It didn't take long, but Beikiju was earnestly eating up every bite, and loving Konoha more and more.
In her mind though, she knew being in Konoha could only last so long. She would enjoy it as much as possible, and so she enjoyed her meal and the company.
ANBU HQ
"And that's how you should take out the target." "Roger!" Two ANBU suddenly vanished from the room. Larxene sighed as she sat down again. She was a little bored from all of this. Sure she was presented with a couple challenging situations, but that was it, nothing more then a couple made her have to think out of the ordinary. One more ANBU unit appeared and Larxene sighed. "What mission are you presenting me with?"
Mantis, in a red cloak, and a rather large Chakra supply had apparently come for a tough mission if he was here. "You are relieved today. We thank you for everything, but as much as this village needs you to help us with our missions, your rest and happiness is first." Larxene smiled slightly before yawning. "Thanks Mantis. Truthfully i knew that but all i ask is for something to happen today. Something interesting, something i can do that doesn't involve thought process!"
Mantis laughed at this, seeing her fidget was always a treat for them. "Well maybe you can take up a mission yourself. Or you could take the day off to train or even get something to eat." Larxene grumbled as she looked over her reports... "I'll take up a mission. I'll REQUEST one for that matter." as she began to call out those words her smirk raised, and she vanished, leaving a very stunned and very confused Mantis behind.
Training Field
"Gwuahg!" Larxene was met with a disturbing sight... her eyes were wide as beside her was Naruto, who had suddenly appeared within the infamous yellow from the Hirashin no doubt, but what was fearsome to her was Naruto who was now punctured by at least quite a few pounds of weaponry Tenten dropped from the air as the horror hit her as well, and Tsunade, Neji and Gai as well. Kushina and the two Toad Sages were not scared, or in horror at all, and just as Kushina smirked, the bloody Naruto poofed out of existence, and the real Naruto appeared beside Larxene. "Didn't i say not to pop in!?"
Gai and Neji were gawking, as Tenten fainted... Tsunade though was confused and relieved at the same time. Shizune was gone right now, trying to find out about where Kakashi went off to. Naruto was angered as Larxene gulped. "Sorry Naru-san. I didn't think I'd pop up in the middle of practice."
Gai fell to the side and on his head, comically as Neji hung his head in shame. He didn't even notice the movements, let alone knowingly see the girl suddenly pop up! and his Byakugan was activated! After a few words between Larxene and Naruto she ran out of the way with Tenten in her arms. Larxene sighed as she found Tsunade. "Sorry i ruined the practice." Tsunade shook her head. "It's alright. Tell me how did he do that?"
Larxene thought for a moment before knowing what Tsunade was talking about. Of course the Hokage was worried about the sight before the clone poofed away. "Naruto made the clone with extra Chakra so it could take more damage, that way it could protect me throughout the assault and make sure no harm would come to me." Tsunade dumbly nodded, finding that possible.
Naruto huffed as he turned to see Gai and Neji composing themselves, and smiled. "So, you two have a plan to go against me?" Neji and Gai started playing rock paper and scissors, and Naruto smirked widely. "Oh come on, one on one is so boring. Why not come at me at the same time?" Right as he said that he got into a VERY familiar stance...
One arm outwards in a forwardly faced palm, his other by his side in the same forward palm as the out-stretched one, while his legs were in a wide, bent L shape......
Hyuuga house stance!
Neji stepped forward. "I want the shot first. Gai-Sensei back me up if i should fail..." Gai nodded and waited for his chance as Neji stepped forward and got into his stance too. Tsunade looked over to the three who she knew very well, and saw them smiling. Minato in a proud manner, Kushina in a crazy smirk while Jiraiya was about to give up his reputation and laugh right then. Tsunade wondered what was going on, especially since Naruto was outside of Konoha and only the Hyuuga take that stance.
In a second it turned from still to crazy as Neji stormed across the field and tried to strike at Naruto, who slid back and to the side, catching the arm and throwing Neji to the ground. Neji though wasn't going to give this chance up and landed on his feet, and spun, using his Chakra around him to use his great Kaiten on Naruto, who managed to sprawl back just in time.
Gai found his opening just when Naruto started to throw the Hyuuga prodigy, and was going to use his famous Dynamic Entry, only for his leg to catch nothing when Naruto ducked under the leg. Neji stopped and found Naruto crouching to the ground as Gai landed. they both looked to each other and nodded, knowing how to combine forces.
Neji ran forth and sprung a high kick up to Naruto's chin, who rolled back to dodge the blow. Gai was next as he had jumped up and was starting to descend on top of Naruto's flipping form, and was about to kick when Naruto kicked the leg out of the way and his other kicked Gai back and behind him. As this move was finished Neji had recovered, and had now started strikes against Naruto here and there, and with his increasing speed thanks to his Chakra induced limbs he was giving Naruto a show. Though Naruto was completely calm and blocked or dodged each strike, grunting as he felt once or twice Neji striking a Tenketsu and closing off some Chakra. Gai wasn't taking this lightly though as he got up and was trying to punch along with Neji, to meet Neji and him battling instead. They had stopped and started to look when Neji saw Naruto just standing by watching, a smug grin on his face. "Hey guys, I'm over here!"
Neji and Gai groaned before running to Naruto once more, and continued their assault. Gai punched for a cheek and Neji kicked for a Knee, to be met with a hand rotating in a circle and dashing Gai away, and Neji's knee being found against Gai's stomach, who grunted before all three jumped back and in stance again.
Tsunade was looking towards the three person group beside her. "How does Naruto know the Hyuuga style of fighting?" Jiraiya answered this. "There's a kid in my Spy network. Some former Konoha civilian., he knows the OLD Hyuuga way. it was more perfected before the Hyuuga's gone to be too arrogant in their abilities and stopped using it, and now they are the most lethal clan in Konoha. but because of their quick styles they have low reserves, but high control, thus why they have to finish their enemy quickly. This kid though found out about the old ways and perfected them about ten years ago. When i made it into Tsuchi with Naruto... the kid was Naruto's Taijutsu teacher."
Minato nodded. "He's also the one who did the Jutsu for me to come back alive. He also became a good friend of the family now, he and Kushina-chan were good friends while i was away." Kushina giggled with her grin growing wider. "Yep, he is such a good kid. Not to mention his bloodline helped us out in more ways then one."
Tsunade whistled as she found out that a former Konoha Civilian was in Tsuchi. Sarutobi must have moved him. "Is the kid a Ninja?" All three nodded their heads, but only Jiraiya answered. "He's the Assistant Tsuchikage. And even stronger then the Tsuchikage himself." Tsunade laughed nervously as she thought how bad it would be if Tsuchi hadn't been on good terms with Konoha.
Neji and Gai once again started to attack as Naruto was continuing to be on the defensive. Neji struck a low blow, trying to close off a few vital points, but Naruto used his earlier moves, much similar to him as the Hyuuga used this type of style to stop opponent's attacks. Neji tried to swing a kick towards Naruto's head ad Gai gave a punch from the other angle. Naruto ducked easily and grinned as he called out. "Hakkesho, Taisenko"
Neji punched low to the gut, Naruto bent sideways/ Gai slide a leg down to trip both legs and both legs slide in a split/Neji sent a knee up to strike and found Naruto bending back/Gai split under Neji and uppercut Naruto's shoulder, but Naruto spun back away from them and found Neji striking his head, and dodged to the left of the arm, and Gai kneed Naruto's back, but found flipped, having the knee pass and Neji try to slam his elbow down into Naruto's chest, only for Naruto's flip to dodge both the Knee and the Elbow and the two to switch sides again. They stopped though as Naruto smirked, his eyes slightly glowing blue.
Kushina giggled. "Finally, he's having fun. Guess the two got better too as Naruto was away." Tsunade was curious on this.. "Neji is recommended for Jounin next week and Gai is our best Taijutsu master. What's this about him having fun?" Kushina giggled more as Minato sweat dropped, knowing where this was going. Kushina looked to her older friend. "When an Uzumaki has fun, or is angered, or in any way gets their blood pumping with andrenaline... our eyes glow, but not all of the Uzumaki clan has this ability. Our bloodline was only active in a fair few, which is why we were so feared. I have this Kekkei Genkei..."
Naruto's eyes glowed a little and Tsunade saw this now... She wondered what this was. She knew Kushina was a very famous Kenjutsu master of her Clan and former Village, but never had she heard of this.
Naruto chuckled lightly to himself. "Ok guys, I'm impressed. You've awakened my blood... Now it's time for me to go on the offensive..." Both Gai and Neji were at a loss because of this, and slightly worried. They knew Naruto was slightly playing with them, and were scared he could do a lot worse then only give them a few bruises.
Naruto was a flash, and a punch came quick and hard towards Neji's face. It was only a quick reflex and his Byakugan that saved him as he dodged, but only by a hair as the fist grazed his ear. Naruto's second punch came to the other side and found it faster then the other blow, but he managed to back away and dodge in time. Although he found himself in a VERY awkward position, leaning back and trying to dodge the blow. Naruto however didn't wait for him and delved Neji's gut with a powerful kick, and sent the Hyuuga flying into the bushes and near Tsunade, where she found him knocked Unconscious.
Kushina smirked widely as Minato looked on proud of his son. "Uzumaki's rare Kekkei Genkei is that once andrenaline starts to kick into our rushing blood, our reflexes become faster, our strength raises ten-fold, and our bodies become faster, and more durable to pain. The problem with this though, is that it stays dormant within ourselves until the andrenaline kicks in, meaning until we've started to have fun or get angry or sad or excited in any way, we're just normal Shinobi... Which was what caused our downfall. Thankfully Naruto was one of the lucky Uzumaki children to have this ability."
Minato cut in as he saw Naruto turn to Gai who was looking very mush worried about his safety at that point. "Unknown to everyone though the Namikaze family kept theirs secret. We have the inept ability to increase our potential. Namikaze children are born talented. They can do whatever they put their minds to, and quicker then the last. i can easily attest to it also, as i myself became Hokage and also i defeated Iwagakure in the war single handedly. So because of my Kekkei Genkei, Naruto gained the Uzumaki Kekkei Genkei." Kushina nodded, knowing this was true. Kushina put in her last two Yen. "If Naruto were to give children from normal people, his children would have the Uzumaki bloodline and Namikaze bloodline all at once, but if he were to marry and court with another Kekkei Genkei user, their children would have all three bloodlines, and their other bloodline would be more powerful..."
Naruto grinned as he was awakened. "Gai-Sensei, you might want to open your gates... Or this might be a VERY painful experience for you..." Gai didn't have a chance as Naruto quickly flashed his way behind him and kicked the Jounin away a few feet.
Jiraiya spoke this time as he saw Tsunade was still a little confused. "Let's just say that Naruto's bloodline is now-"
Gai stood up and got into his stance. "-Fully-"
Gai opened six of his gates all at once and the forest was almost blowing away at the release of Chakra. "-Activated..."
Gai and Naruto disappeared from their spots, and reappeared in the middle in a clash of yellow and green, grappling for control, a crater from their combined powers forming under them and growing around them as it grew deeper. Naruto grinned as Gai was straining from the gates being opened and not able to overpower the blonde. "Come on! Let's see you beat me at Taijutsu!"
They let go of each other and separated, and yellow and green filled the area as they sped across the plains, destroying the ground, the trees, and even ripping the clouds to pieces as they fought with such intensity!
Gai came up to Naruto's yellow covered form with a multitude of extremely blurry and fast punches, in which Naruto dodged easily while sending a kick or two, only to be blocked by a hand and leg every time. No one there but Minato and Kushina were able to follow the movements of each fighter. Minato because he was the fastest Shinobi alive, and Kushina because of her bloodline.
Naruto threw a punch at Gai who dodged to the side, and kicked to the blondes head, only for it to be blocked by the same punching hand, and Naruto twisting around to land a backhand against Gai's cheek, who ducked down and rolled behind Naruto and spun upwards. "Konoha Daisempou!"
Side kicking to Naruto's mug was unsuccessful as he ducked, but Gai didn't stop, he was on the ground again and spun a sweep kick in chance but Naruto jumped upward, and that was what Gai wanted. he jumped up beside the blonde to give the final spin-kick, only to find his leg caught and a grinning Naruto in a blurry yellow light. "Setsuna SENKOU!!!"
Minato grinned as Kushina laughed... They knew this Taijutsu well thanks to Naruto exploiting them one time... Jiraiya shook his head. "Gai's a goner."
Gai looked on in Horror as Naruto was lifting his leg for a kick... and saw a bright yellow light for a split second before darkness took him...
To everyone else, Naruto was going into a kick and suddenly a bright yellow flash covered the area, and Naruto was on the ground, while Gai fell from above him. Naruto let his arm out and caught Gai at the last second before walking over to Tsunade. "So how were my skills so far?"
Tsunade was slightly gawking at the performance. It took her a second to get her senses back, and smiled. "Your Kenjutsu was Kage level that's for sure, even if it was short and not very flashy... Your weapon evaluation was short but it would seem you live up to your high skilled targeting. As for your Taijutsu it was a very amazing show you put on, and i would say your as good with Ninjutsu as you are with Taijutsu right?" Naruto nodded, knowing the Genjutsu was a very amazing piece of work for getting out of one.
Larxene was swooning at the moment, not even hearing the words before or now. Naruto was amazing! and she wished she could have a guy as great as him... "Why not have him? He's certainly good enough, and will be needing a few good wives... I'll talk later."
Shizune got Kakashi finally and returned. "Tsunade-sama, sorry it took so long, did i miss anything?" She saw Naruto carrying an unconscious Gai and a Neji right by his feet... "Oh... That means i missed Naruto-kun's Taijutsu... Sorry i missed it, was it good?" Tsunade and the rest of them chuckled and laughed at her misfortune. Minato spoke. "It was even better then i could ever do." Shizune dropped her head in shame at missing it all. Kakashi walked behind her and past Naruto into the field. Naruto nodded and set Gai down. "Ninjutsu now. I'll talk later..."
Tsunade nodded and got a wakening Tenten to go get some rest. Everyone stood in a group and watched the activities... It was going to be one hell of a fight.
GHGHGHGHGGHHGHGHGHGHGHGHGHGGHHGHGHGHGHGHGHGHGHGHGHGHGHG
I hope that satisfied you guys. As for people wondering why the Hirashin was used so follied, Minato will explain next chapter! or i can explain now..
The Hirashin is like a teleportation jutsu, but in reality it isn't. I believe that the flash of yellow following a moving Minato means he's using wind and lightning to make himself FASTER!, so instead of teleporting to his opponent he's just moving very very fast. The Kunai though Minato will explain next chapter.
Hope that gives you answers... Ja Ne!
P.S. GIVE ME JUTSU!!! I NEED JUTSU!!! i can't do the Ninjutsu part of this without some more Jutsu. Also i need a new group or organization after i have Naruto kill Akatsuki later on. also next chapter we meet Iruka's class and Hinata. so hopefully i give you all something to look forward to.
Ja Ne...
