Chapter 8 Naruto's True Power!
Naruto had managed to save Broly from getting knocked off the ring. He sighed in relief noticing nobody came after Broly in his weakened state. He had to sigh at the barbaric mindsets of Saiyans. While they were strong, they tended to push all common sense aside for a good fight.
"You truly are a fool Broly. If you get teamed up on by any enemy not much weaker than you, you'll be in trouble. Either sit back and wait for your team, or THROW YOURSELF OFF THE RING, AND SAVE ME THE TROUBLE OF DOING IT MYSELF!" Naruto shouted at the pig headed Saiyan.
"Grr. I only wanted to fight Kakarot. Nithing else mattered to me." Broly muttered.
"Yes i know about your grudge against Son Goku, but remember why you are here. If you had gotten yourself eliminated i would've killed you myself and sent you into oblivion. We don't need raw muscle we need TEAMWORK! I don't care about your grudges! You WILL mind my orders as well as Lord Liquiirs! You want to be brought back to life right?" Naruto asked.
Broly nodded. "Well then start paying attention to what i say. You are the second strongest of our group, and i expect your mentality to match your power. Never fight a group of warriors by yourself; even IF they are weaker then you. This tournament has alot of warriors with unknown skills and abilities." Naruto stated as he folded his arms behind his back.
"I...understand." Broly said bitterly. It hurt his pride more then anything to make a mistake like that. It also doesn't help that he can't kill so he has to hold alot of his power and abilities since they're all lethal.
"Good. I expect you to learn from this, and take it more seriously. We are not here to enjoy ourselves. We are here to WIN!" Naruto stated to the Saiyan.
Broly nodded before flying off to join his "team" in fighting other groups.
"Now i just hope the rest of them understand this." Naruto said before dodging an orange ki blast. He flipped up in mid-air gracefully while turning his head to look at his attacker. It was none other then Jiren, of Universe 11.
"Well how unexpected. For someone of your caliber to come after me so soon? Truly suprising." Naruto stated as took in the hulking purple aliens appearance. He was massive. 7ft tall of walking muscle, but Naruto knew those things didn't slow him down.
"You and Son Goku are the only threats to me. I shall take you both out, before something like that happens." Jiren said his voice toneless and serious.
"Well i hate to rain on your parade, but it's not going to be that easy. You may be strong, but you lack the goal and experience to grow stronger. Before we begin let me ask you something." Naruto asked the giant purple pride trooper.
Jiren stared for a few minutes before nodding.
"What do you fight for?" Naruto asked tonelessly.
"I fight for strength. To prove i am the strongest." Jiren stated.
"But, why do you fight for this stength? Do you wish to protect someone?" Naruto asked again.
"I only fight for strength. Fighting and relying on others is foolish. Fighting for others makes you weak." Jiren stated.
Naruto looked at Jiren with a critical eye, before shaking his head in dissapointment. "Then i'm sorry to say you will get no stronger then me or Son Goku. You see we draw our power from those we love and wish to protect. It may be foolish, but i will continue fighting for my precious people regardless of the circumstances." Naruto said with conviction.
"Then you are a fool." Jiren said before charging Naruto.
"I'd rather be a fool, then scum like you!" Naruto roared as he met and clashed his fists with Jirens. A shockwave resonated from both fists spreading through out the entire arena, and knocking the rest of the fodder out of the ring.
"Universe's 2, 3, 5, 9 have been knocked out of the ring. Grand Zeno shall now erase them." The Grand Priest said as Grand Zeno erased the mentioned universes.
"A S-simple shockwave!?! How is that possible!?!?" Champa yelled out in fright. If those two were capable of knocking out warriors with a simple clash of fists? What could they do if they were serious?...
With Liquiir and Korn
"He truly has grown strong; Lord Liquiir." Korn stated. Liquiir nodded as he watched on with pride of his student. Naruto had truly come a long way from the runt he used to be.
"Yes he has, his growth has been truly astounding. It makes me feel more content to leave universe 8 in his hands. He follows a very noble belief that not many; if any destroyers follow." Liquiir said to his attendent.
Korn nodded. While Naruto was very strong, he also had a strong will, and that was something he admired about the boy since they picked him up from his old planet.
Back with Naruto and Jiren
Naruto had separated from Jiren, and started to assess the situation. From what he gathered so far, Jirens physical strength was top notch, While he had less physical strength then Jiren, he had more then Son Goku and Vegeta.
Jirens speed however was lacking a little. He noticed he got there a little faster then the purple alien when they clashed. Granted Jiren was holding back, but so was he. He shook his hand of the numbness gathered in it and looked at Jiren.
"I must say you are quite strong. Stronger then any other person here, but you still lack a motivation to grow stronger." Naruto taunted Jiren. Riling up an opponent who was stronger then you may not have been a good idea, but he needed more information on what made Jiren tick. He also needed to know just how much power he was concealing.
"Hmph. Petty taunts won't rile me up." Jiren told him tonelessly.
"Alright then. How about we stop talking and continue. Yes?" Naruto said before he vanished into thin air.
"Hmph." Was all Jiren said before he to vanished away. The only sound that could be heard was shockwaves from the powerful exchange of punches and kicks. The fight was taken to a higher level that none of Universe 6 or 7 could keep track of their movements.
"W-wow i can't even see them!" Krillin said in awe. Piccolo, Roshi and Tien nodded their heads with slight worry. Would Goku and Vegeta be able to fight this guy? They had no clue, and thats what was worrying them the most.
Goku and Vegeta may have found a fight they couldn't win... (You thought that was the end? Nah!).
With Naruto and Jiren
Naruto and Jiren continued "warming up" as their blows got more and more intense with every connection they made. While Naruto was still holding back a lions share of his own power, he knew Jiren was as well. How much power? He wasn't sure.
He knew Jiren was getting impatient with this little "warm up" so he decided to go full power from the start. He phased away from Jiren; to get some breathing room.
"I must admit, even though you're holding back; you're still very formittable." Naruto said as he stretched his limbs out.
"I can tell you are also holding back." Jiren said to the blonde god.
"That's right, but i won't be holding back as much anymore. It's time to get serious." Naruto said as his facial expression switched to serious from playful. Naruto grunted as a force and heavy winds erupted from his body, breaking away all of the rubble that accumulated atop the fighting stage.
"Now then. Its time for round two." Naruto stated as a purple/pink aura surrounded his body, his eyes changed from blue to pinkish red, and the kanji for destruction (絶滅) appeared on his left and right pectorial respectively. This was his form of destruction.
"Hmph." Jiren "said" before he to powered up to match Naruto. His power shook the infinite void with only a mere fraction of it being released. Naruto shook with a little anxiety, but he wouldn't give up.
"I won't lose. I can't lose. My universe and all of my universe are depending on me." Naruto said before he too shook the void of infinity. His hair was glowing white, as well as his skin. His eyes were going full on pink/red, no pupil or retina was visible anymore.
Then a chaotic aura surrounded his body. Black, white and purple lightning was flashing off his body, and destroying the ground underneath him. With a ferocious roar followed by a flash of purple light completed his transformation.
When the light died down, everyone was in a state of shock sans universe 8. Naruto was surrounded by a white/purple/pink/black aura. His body was whitish purple skin tone with a glowing pink symbol in the center of his chest for Infinity with the kanji for for destruction (絶滅) on either side.
"I told you, i won't lose to you or anyone." Naruto said, his voice giving a triple echoey distorted version of his old one. The real fight was about to begin.
