Naruto, The Ninth Tail: Chapter 4

Meeting

As the light faded away, everybody was in shock.

Kirin was enveloped with five swirling streams of chakra, blue, white, red, brown, yellow. They suddenly spread out, and one end of each colour of chakra collected at the base of his spine, like tails. His clothes and hat were glowing, and his tomahawk had detached from his back. It once again transformed into the falcon. The bird then wrapped its wings around Kirin, and when it opened them up, Kirin had fur-like armour, his old clothes nowhere to be seen. The bird was also nowhere to be seen.

Touda was different. He was engulfed by dark clouds, and the sky was darkening with clouds coming in. Then, you could see blue-white light coming from Touda's cloud, and the clouds above. Then, six bolts of lightning came down and struck Touda's cloud, dissipating it, and revealing Touda. His armour had disappeared, replaced with electric armour, crackling and chittering, just like the Chidori. You could see his skin through a couple of tiny gaps. Instead of five, he had six tails of crackling electricity.

Naruto finally realized what they were, not just what their lives were like. The power of the dreaded, the monstrous Biju. "Th… They're Jinchuriki!"

Sakura looked from Naruto, to Kirin, to Touda, and then to Kakashi and Jiraiya. "Kakashi-sensei… What's going on?"

Even Kakashi was sweating, and shaking. He swallowed. "Th-This isn't good… Th-three of them! A-All in one place! And even two are at full power! There's no way we can win!"

Jiraiya was wide eyed, thinking. This is something I thought I would never see. I am really lucky to see this… no, very un-lucky. I have a really slim chance of surviving alive if they start fighting. "The five tails, Houkou. It has the ability to control all five main elements. The Jinchuriki has the power to use any technique the five basic element releases: Katon (fire), Fuuton (wind), Suiton (water), Doton (earth), and Raiton (lightning). The Jinchuriki can use the techniques without making a single hand seal for the lower level techniques. S-rank techniques only need three seals for this guy to use them. This is one of the most dangerous Jinchuriki out of the seven."

Jiraiya turned his head towards the lightning-clad knight. "The six tails, Raiju. It has the power to manipulate clouds, lightning, and thunder at will. It has the speed of lightning, and a roar that would break your eardrums if you are too close. Any lightning element attacks can be used by the Jinchuriki without a single seal."

He looked at Kakashi. "This is a fight we cannot win. They're at their maximum potential, and they have completecontrol of the Biju! Naruto can't even control his Biju at four tails. We have to retreat."

Naruto heard all of this, and yelled at Jiraiya. "No, you idiot! If this guy is as fast as lightning," he pointed at Touda, "there is no way we can outrun him! If we do run, he'll cut us up into pieces before we even take one step! How do you know that they're going to actually let us go?" He turned around again to face the Sabishii."We have to fight. There's no other way."

Kirin smirked. "Smart, for a kid like you. Yes, we could kill you all right away if we wanted to, but we like playing with our kill before they die. So think of yourselves as lucky that we're sparing your lives until we're bored."

Sakura stood up. This is just like with our encounter with Orochimaru. We knew that we couldn't win, but we still fought right away. If these Sabishii really wanted to kill us, wouldn't they have done that already? No, they're after something, like Orochimaru was after Sasuke-kun…

Her eyes lit up. Wait… They're Jinchuriki, just like Naruto! Could they actually be after him? She looked at Naruto, who was ready to fight anytime, red chakra flaming around him. Her left arm tingled, where that same chakra had entered her system and damaged her. She couldn't even heal that, and she needed Tsunade's help after that mission.

"It looks like there is no other choice." Kakashi pulled out a kunai and revealed his Sharingan. "We'll have to fight for our lives."

"I've never had a fight like this before, but I guess I will have to do my best." Jiraiya brought his hands up, and readied two Rasengans for battle.

"Un." Sakura nodded, and put on her signature gloves.

Naruto's red chakra had become armour, and had grown one tail. "Let's go!" He rushed at the Sabishii, with the others trailing behind.

Kirin grinned, and raised his hand, fingers spread out. The sea water under the bridge rose over the two sides, and converged on the team. Fire came streaking out from his palm, Lightning fell from the clouds, the bridge floor grew earthen spikes, and a strong wind blew pell-mell at the gang.

Naruto used his abnormal chakra to blast away the fire, wind, and lightning. Sakura punched the ground, cracking the moving spikes, and Jiraiya and Kakashi both used Katon: Karyuu Endan (Fire Release: Fire Dragon Flame Bullet) to evaporate the water.

That was just the first round.

Jiraiya had summoned a frog slightly larger than him, and he used a fire technique to light up the oil the frog spat. He also used two Rasengans to redirect winds, put out fires, and reflect lightning strikes. The frog was swinging its swords every which way, slicing through walls of water for them to harmlessly pass over or under the duo. This is crazy! There are so many attacks coming in! There is no way that this guy could do this without the Biju's help. I won't be able to keep this up for very long. He looked at the frog, which was starting to pant. Even this frog here is getting tired!

Kakashi had summoned his dog squadron to help attack. With kunai in their mouths, they ran around Kirin, attacking at random. Kirin, however, was blocking every attack fluently with his armour, as if he knew where everything was coming. He was even closing his eyes, and grinning. Kakashi also joined into the battle, throwing shuriken and stabbing with Kunai. His Sharingan was constantly reading attacks. It's impossible for me to keep up this place for long. The Sharingan will sap my energy, and he'll be too fast for me. Even my dog squadron is starting to wear out. He was right. The dogs were starting to slow down, and their attacks weren't as frequent.

Sakura was being attacked by chunks of earth guided by Kirin. She punched and kicked each one coming her way, pulverizing each with one hit. How is this possible? One person is using so many attacks to fight three people at once! It's not human! Then again, he does have the Biju's power to help him. With the amount of stamina he has, I can't beat him, but I'll do my best to give him the fight of his life! She started punching even faster and harder, not giving up.

"Do you know how I can do all this?" Kirin spoke, as he was blocking attacks. "It is because I am tuned into the five elements. It's not just the manipulation of the elements, but I am part of them, sensing the dogs' paws padding the ground, the wind whistling as kunai fly through the air, the currents in the water as animals swim through them. This is even stronger than the Hyuuga's bloodline limit, the Byakugan, without ablind spot!"

At this, Kirin laughed, as the attacks kept glancing off his armour.

As all this was happing, Touda streaked over towards Naruto, and started using his sword to slash at him. Naruto blocked the lightning-fast strikes with his chakra, and retaliated with a volley of light-quick punches everywhere at Touda's body. None of the punches had any effect, except for the ones aimed at the head. Those, Touda dodged with ease. Naruto kept punching and kicking, but none of them even touched a hair on Touda's head.

Kuso, Kuso, Kuso! Why can't I hit him? Is it because I'm not fast enough? He is as fast as lightning. I'll have to surround him and attack from all sides so he can't move.

Naruto suddenly jumped back, surprising Touda, and he stumbled a bit. "Kage Bunshin no Jutsu!" (Shadow Clone Technique) Once Touda raised his head, he saw hundreds of Narutos encircling him, all holding kunai.

Touda smiled and raised his sword to his body. "This'll be interesting."

All the Naruto clones ran at Touda, kunai pointed straight at him. Some even jumped onto the others' shoulders and stood there to attack from above. They had created a whole semi-circle around Touda.

He was still smiling.

Just as the Naruto's had collected right where Touda should have been, Touda had jumped up high into the air. He was holding his open palm straight down at the group of Narutos. The Naruto's all looked up, and realized how much trouble they were in.

"Raiton: Rairyudan no Jutsu!" (Lightning Release: Lightning Dragon Bullet Technique)

A solid column of electricity flew out of his palm, and changed into a dragon, with open jaws directed straight at the group of Narutos. It struck the whole group, electrifying them all. None of the clones survived, and they all went up in smoke. Touda landed on the bridge, and watched the smoke carefully. It never paid to underestimate the opponent. As the smoke cleared, he saw Naruto's body lying on the ground. He was unconscious, but not unhurt. Touda walked over, and smirked. "We told you that you couldn't beat us. I think we were right about that."

The ground below Touda exploded, revealing a red claw made out of chakra. It grabbed onto his leg, and the real Naruto came out with it.

"Think again!"

Naruto punched Touda's chin, sending him flying up, and crashing back down. Touda got back up, and was quite surprised by Naruto actually thinking of an underground attack like that. The earth even grounded the lightning, protecting Naruto from the electricity.

Touda smiled again. "This is gonna be more interesting than I thought." He made the dragon seal, and collected chakra into his armour. "Raikou Bunshin no Jutsu!" (Lightning clones technique)

Down from the clouds came four bolts of lightning. Where they struck the ground, out appeared four clones of Touda. This time, instead of being made out of shadows, these were made out of lightning. An advantage of lightning is that it would shock whatever kills it.

Naruto just created four shadow clones to help him out, and they all had the same armour made out of chakra. However, the Narutos had just sproutedtheir second tails, givingthem an extra boost of energy.

The next round had started.

Kunai were flying, lightning striking, tags exploding, chakra glowing. Seals were made so quick, even the Mangekyou Sharingan would not be able to follow them.

However, the fight was soon lost.

The lightning attacks had made the chakra armour of Naruto's weak, and Touda had used those weak points to cut into Naruto with his sword. Naruto had lost too much blood, and he couldn't keep up with the fight. The lightning clones were all over him, tearing him down as fast as the Kyubi could heal the wounds. However, the Kyubi couldn't regenerat his blood quick enough, and Naruto's attacks became sluggish.

The rest of the Konoha Ninja noticed this, and faltered in their attacks.

Kirin yelled. "An opening!" He made a boar seal, then a bear, then a tiger. "Katon: Okibi Teikiatsu!" (Fire Release: Blazing Fire Cyclone) He inhaled, thenblew hard, and a raging cyclone of fire came out, engulfing the three.

Sakura didn't know any water techniques, so she couldn't do anything about the fire spinning around her. However, Kakashi knew a few, and used the one he thought would be most effective. He made some very quick hand seals. "Jiraiya-sama, Sakura, duck!" They both ducked. "Suiton: Suiryudan no Jutsu!" (Water Release: Water Dragon Bullet Technique) He blew water out of his mouth (how it gets through the mask, I don't know) and turned his body, effectively removing the whorl of fire.

As the steam was blown, away, Naruto was in the air, unconscious, held up by Kirin's left hand. His other hand had something that looked awfully close to the Chidori, but it had flames licking around it also. "Hey, guys. If you don't want your buddy here to have an early funeral, then you better step down."

"That won't be necessary."

The ground under Kirin's arm cracked open, revealing a large blade. It flew up, revealing the rest of the sword, a steel wall with a sharp edge at the top. This totally removed his arm from his body, but he wasn't surprised. He looked annoyed, but also fearful. Naruto fell to the ground, still unconscious.

"Why did you have to do that, Kimiko-sensei?"

From the forest, a dark figure could be seen with a white smile on.

Hey!

Some of the techniques here I made up. I'll probably post all my own characters and techniques on my profile page.

Any questions? Ideas? Whatever? tell me. I'll try to respond as soon as possible.
