Wave Arc Ending.
Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto, If i did The Uchiha would of bought it in the first chapter of the Manga series, Save us all alot of trouble.
Chapter 4
Naruto narrowed his eyes, He focused his Chakra as he saw the band of thugs rush towards him. As a single bead of sweat ran down his cheek, He knew what he had to do for the people of wave for justice to be served, Completing his final hand seal he screamed out over the noise of the on-rushing samurai "Raiton, Koukihi no Jutsu" (Lightning Style, Final Light)
Naruto thrust his hands forward as large ball of lightning energy gathering between his clawed fingers, As a large white beam of energy swept past the on rushing Samurai. Men and bodies were sent flying into the air crashing into the water below.
Naruto took a fight stance smirking at his enemy.
"Naruto...ease off the Ninjutsu for a bit, It's straining your newly opened bloodline limit" echoed Kyuubi in his mind.
'Right' replied Naruto through his mind
Naruto ducked as katana blade sailed over his head. Naruto jumped into the air and rocked the lone Samurai attacker with a solid roundhouse kick, His body was sent flying back skidding along the surface of the bridge talking his cohorts with him.
"You are all scum" Screamed Naruto "Following that swine Gato, Now you will all face justice by my hand" He finished throwing his hand to the side calling out Shiroikou (White Lightning). His gift from the White Tiger Clan appearing in his hand gleaming in the sunlight.
"You think you can take us all brat, You and that toothpick" Taunted one of the Samurai causing the others to laugh.
Naruto glared hard at the thugs "You will all do well to remember your place"
"C'mon let's just kill this kid"
"Yeah"
"Let's get him"
The band of thugs facing with Naruto rushed in again, Unknowingly charging to towards their own deaths.
In an instant Naruto pushed the blade free from it scabbard with his thumb, His Chakra building before he screamed out. "Ittoryu Iai: Kari Tora (One Sword Style, Draw and Resheath Technique: Hunting Tiger).
As Naruto unsheathed his sword a large crescent shaped energy blade rushed towards the on rushing samurai, A large explosion billowed into the air leaving behind the bodies of a few dozen Samurai all dead at his feet.
"Kami-Sama, Kakashi where did you find this kid?" Asked Zabuza very impressed with the kids Kenjutsu skill.
"I have no idea" He responded 'Naruto...What happened to you?' Thought the copy ninja.
From his prone position Uchiha Sasuke had the perfect viewpoint. He was witnessing the dead last of his academy class lay waste to dozens of samurai, Almost like they were nothing, His teeth gnashed in anger.
'How does he have this power...I deserve it more, I need to kill him' Raged the young Uchiha
'That idiot, He'll never be better than Sasuke-Kun' thought the pinkette.
As Naruto sheathed his blade. A shadow fazed into view behind him, It was one of the larger missing Iwa Ninja. A giant fist raised into the air ready to crush the young leaf ninja under it's weight. The fist impacted the bridge surface kicking up a cloud of dust.
"Naruto" Shouted Kakashi seeing his student take the hit.
"Your going to have to try better than that Rocky-Chan" Said a voice as Naruto appeared unharmed some distance from the Iwa Nin who was growling in anger at the nickname.
"Saijin, Do not let that little brat rattle your cage" Shouted the female iwa nin.
Naruto smirked clearly have achieved his goal of angering his rather large opponent, He placed his sword on his back as a white cloth appearing diagonally across his chest securing it place.
"Well...Want to try again"
Saijin screamed in rage, The hulking iwa nin was always slow in thought and quick to anger. A very useless combination in a shinobi.
"Your dead now Brat" Screamed Saijin
Naruto smirked, However that soon dropped from his face when Saijin slammed his giant fists into the ground. The Iwa Chuunin screamed out "Doton, Ouritsu no Yorai" (Earth Style, Royal Armour), Earth and giant slabs of concrete then gathered around Saijin, Until he stood ten feet tall with giant fists and the body of a rock golom.
"You ready to die brat" Screamed Saijin
Naruto simply curled his fingers.
Saijin screamed in rage and dashed forward, The Ground shaking under his heavy pounding steps. Naruto rolled forward and fazed out and reappeared standing at the edge of the bridge the misty and choppy waters of Nami below.
"Oh Rocky-Chan" Naruto shouted
Saijin growled under his breath, He turned his hulking rock covered body and charged towards Naruto.
"That's it...Come on a little more" Whispered Naruto
As the hulking Iwa Nin drew closer, Naruto thrust his fist forward before calling out "Ninpou: Ichikasui" (Ninja Art: Chain Spike). A long length of grey metal chain links extended out from Naruto's arm at the tip a deadly needle sharp spike, The Metal chain easily penetrated the rock covered Saijin's body before wrapping around the leg.
Naruto once again focused his chakra and made a single seal, Once again he called out of the battle noise.
"Raiton, Kasuirai no Jutsu" (Lightning Style, Chain Lightning)
A large electrical current raced down the chain, It soon enveloped the Rock clad Iwa Nin who screamed in pain. However soon his entire body dissolved into a pile of mud, Naruto looked left to right before jumping into the air avoid a reappearing Saijin's attack.
'Tsuchi Bunshin' Thought Naruto
"Naruto...You need to end this soon...The strain your bloodlines are placing on your body will soon be beyond my healing factor, Your body just isn't used to it's new abilities" Said Kyuubi.
"Understood"
Naruto once again extended his hand to the side calling back Shiroikou, He then disappeared in a blur of speed dashing towards the Iwa Ninja, Who turned just in time to see Naruto slash with his blade and reappear into view crouched behind him. Naruto stood to his full height and sheathed his blade, With a final click Saijin's chest exploded into a plume of blood as slash mark extending from hip to shoulder "Ittoryu: Heruseki" (One Sword Style - Hells Gate) Whispered Naruto.
"Naruto look out!" Screamed Kyuubi
Naruto looked over his shoulder to find the second Iwa Ninja leaping towards him, Attacking from his blind spot. But the Leaf Genin reacted quicker moving in a blur speed missing the heavy rock encased punch, The Kunoichi landed at the spot Naruto once stood her eyes darting from left to right searching for her prey.
But it soon found her.
Naruto was his position high above descended to the ground, His fist in front cutting a path through the air. He disappeared in a blur of speed and reappeared just above the completely oblivious Kunoichi he called out "Kousoku: Shindou Gyosha" (High Gear, Impact Driver).
The resulting impact was devastating as the female ninja had no time to react before her entire body was sent rocketing to the ground, So hard she blasted a hole directly in the concrete surface and falling into the waters below.
Naruto stood staring down through the hole, Ensuring his enemy was defeated. He turned and walked towards his Sensei and Zabuza. The bodies of dozens of Samurai littered at their feet, He didn't say anything as he passed and stood over the cowering form of Gato.
"Please don't kill me" whimpered the crime lord
"Give me one reason why i shouldn't?" Growled Naruto
The almost crying criminal tried to crawl away, Only for Naruto to place a foot on his back holding him in place.
"You will pay for the crimes you have committed against the people of wave Gato" growled Naruto as he hauled the tiny man to his feet and threw him into the air, He sailed over the edge of the bridge only to be caught and secured by a chakra chain courtesy of Naruto which left him swinging above the water.
Naruto smirked at his handy work before turning around, He was met with the shocked faces of Kakashi, Zabuza and Haku.
"What"
"Nothing...But you know I'm going to have to tell the Hokage about this right" Kakashi stated nervously, Somewhat shocked at the blonde's display once moments ago.
Naruto just smiled and nodded "I know Kakashi-Sensei" He said before turning to the form Kiri Swordsman and his young apprentice "I think I won the bet Zabuza-San"
The masked Missing Nin nodded folding his arms "I believe you did Gaki, Looks like we're going to Konoha"
Then suddenly out of the mist that shrouded the very end of the bridge, A loud cheer rose up as dozens of rogue Samurai appeared.
"Hey! That Gaki killed our meal ticket let's get him" One of them shouted before they all rushed forward.
Suddenly they all stopped when three arrows landed at the feet of the lead group, The Ninja turned to see the citizens of Wave had gathered all carrying make-shift weapons. Leading them the bridge builders grandson Inari.
"We've come to help Ni-San" Shouted the boy
Naruto smiled before he turned to look at the rouge who were charging once again, He looked left at Kakashi who nodded then right to Zabuza who did the same. The blond then make the distinctive hand seal of crossed fingers calling out.
"Kage Bunshin no Jutsu"
In clouds of smoke dozens of Naruto clones appeared on the bridge, Followed by dozens of copies of the Kakashi. Zabuza followed suit with his Water Clones, The Three Ninja and their clones then jumped into the melee. The bodies of Samurai were sent flying everywhere as the battle raged on for only a minute or two the hapless attackers no match for a rampaging blond Genin and two seasoned Jounin.
That Afternoon with the battle over and the bodies of the dead Samurai pushed into the sea, Gato was hauled up from his hanging position under the bridge. He was swiftly knocked out and placed into a sealing scroll by Kakashi, Team Seven stood at the bridge exit know completed by Tazuna's workers and the exit gate painted red proudly displaying the bridge's new name.
"I think it's a great name Jiji" Said Inari
"Indeed Tou-Chan, A fine name for our Savior" Said Tsunami
The name the bridge was given.
The Great Naruto Bridge
As the people of wave watched their saviours departure, Inari ran ahead and shouted his small voice carrying through the air to reach Naruto.
"Thank you Ni-San, Don't be a stranger"
Naruto smiled turning to wave goodbye "Take care guys" He shouted the Journey to Konoha wasn't long, But it certainly gave them all something to think about.
'I need to train more, These powers are a gift to protect everyone' Thought Naruto
"Indeed Naruto-Kun, I shall help in your fight' Replied Kyuubi
The obsidian eyes of an avenger Uchiha were boring holes into the back of the blond, The Power he had displayed on the bridge shouldn't belong to him, They belonged to an Uchiha and soon they would.
'Soon you power will be mine Dobe' He thought.
The pinked haired howler monkey just had a stars in her eyes gazing at her beloved "Oh Sasuke-Kun is so cool' She thought.
So misguided
'I'll look forward to this gaki's progress, He sure is an interesting one' thought the form Kiri Swordsman
'Well done Naruto-Kun, You discovered your reason to battle' Thought Haku 'May you never lose that goal'
Kakashi had other things on this mind, The display Naruto put on at the bridge battle was something the Hokage needed to be told. Maybe the Kyuubi had finally taken over the blonde's body, No! he detected no signs of evil.
It was all Naruto.
'Naruto what happened you too you' Thought the copy ninja.
The Konoha Ninja soon jumped into the tree's making there way back the village, Plus too passengers unaware that a legacy had been born in the tiny island nation. A legacy that would echo through the ages.
The legacy of the Blade Edge.
