Here is the next chapter and I'm sorry it took so long but I got it here and I hope you enjoy it.

Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto, Masashi Kishimoto does.

Last time…

He tightened his grip on the man's collar and demanded, "Who are you and what is your purpose for trying to kill this woman?"

But the man was silent at first but then he looked up at Naruto and then he answered, "My name…is Tetsuya Inoue…"

Then Tetsuya added, "My purpose… is to serve Aiko-sama."

Naruto held the intruder, Tetsuya, as he had called himself, by the collar and held him up two inches off the ground

Naruto glared at him and then asked, "Who is this Aiko-sama? Is she your master or something?"

Tetsuya looked at him and then answered, "She will be resurrected once again and then purify this world with her amazing power. I will not let the likes of the so-called Savior of the World stand in my way, Naruto Uzumaki."

Naruto glared at him because while everyone had heard of him, people outside of Konoha were only aware of his status as the Savior but still a lot of small villages don't know his name and he couldn't tell which he's from. He held onto his collar and then suddenly Tetsuya had kicked at the clone that was behind him and then the movement had caused Naruto to lose his grip on him, letting him go in struggle. Then Tetsuya had pulled out a sword that was apparently hidden under his black overcoat and then he swung it towards Naruto. Luckily, Naruto was able to pull out a kunai and block it.

Naruto kept blocking the sword's movements until he was able to land a kick to his stomach and pushed him several centimeters before he charged at him and had slashed at his face, leaving a cut on his left cheek. Tetsuya showed no reaction to being cut with a kunai, he only jumped back and then quickly did a few hands seals and then shouted, "Suiton: Suidan no Jutsu!"

Then a large torrent of water had come out of his mouth to attack, he made the clone disperse first and then aimed it at Naruto and the woman. But then Naruto picked up the woman and jumped back to avoid it.

He shouted, "Kage Bunshin no Jutsu!"

Then another clone had appeared and then he told the clone, "Get her to Tsunade-obaa-chan and tell her that I'm going to try and capture the possible suspect of the recent murders."

The clone nodded as he took the woman and carried her before taking towards the Hokage Tower.

Then he faced Tetsuya again before charging forward to attack. Their attacks clashed with each other's, the kunai and sword had clanged together as they traded blow for blow. Naruto was pushing back hard and Tetsuya seemed to be struggling. But then his sword started to glow bright blue and it had sliced through Naruto's kunai and caused Naruto to jump back from the attack. He took out another kunai, only this one was a bit different and then prepared himself in a fighting stance.

He thought, "If it comes down to it, I may have use it; I may not have it perfect yet, but it may be my only chance to catch this guy."

He suddenly raced forward and then slashed at Tetsuya while he just blocked the kunai. They continued to fight and then they had gone from the alley into the center of the street, disturbing the peace. Tetsuya then ran off and Naruto chased after him from the rooftops.

In the Hokage Tower…

"What did you say?!" Tsunade shouted in alarm.

"Boss had asked me to bring this woman here and to inform you that he's in pursuit of the possible suspect of the recent murders," Naruto's clone explained.

Tsunade stood up abruptly and ordered, "Keep on him, and I'll send others to back you up. You must not let him escape, Naruto."

The clone nodded and then disappeared from the office while Tsunade called out, "Send reinforcements to assist Naruto. This is a possible suspect of the murder case; failure is not an option. Capture him by any means necessary."

An ANBU, that was hiding in the shadows, had revealed himself and affirmed, "Yes, Ma'am."

Then he disappeared and then Tsunade asked Shizune, "Watch this woman and tend to any wounds she may have received."

Shizune nodded and replied, "Yes Tsunade-sama."

Then Tsunade left the office and went to the Interrogation Corps to inform them of the woman who is an official witness.

Back with Naruto…

Naruto chased Tetsuya and he had brief flash of the clone's memories and became more determined to catch Tetsuya. He had sped up to catch up to him and then he punched Tetsuya in the gut, sending him flying onto another rooftop. Naruto then jumped down on top of him and pinned him down with the kunai barely an inch from his neck.

"I'm not letting you get away," Naruto declared.

Tetsuya smirked slightly, confusing Naruto until Tetsuya had dispersed into water, he thought, "Water clone, huh?"

He turned his head every which way until he spotted him sprinting across the rooftops and then Naruto went after him. Tetsuya then changed his path as he was sprinting, trying to confuse him by switching in different directions. But Naruto was faster than people believe him to be; he easily caught up to Tetsuya and blocked his path.

"I said I'm not letting you get away, if you want to run away, you'll have to get past me," Naruto declared.

Tetsuya chuckled and then got into a battle stance with his sword pointed forward, "I suppose it can't be avoided."

Then suddenly a squad of ANBU shinobi had appeared behind Naruto and one of them said, "Tsunade-sama had ordered us to assist you in capturing this intruder."

Naruto nodded his head and then said, "He has been using kenjutsu mostly and he had used some water techniques. But I don't know exactly how strong he is; be wary of any tricks he may have."

The ANBU answered, "Got it."

Tetsuya didn't seem too concerned about the ANBU appearing, he just kept staring them down. Then he had charged forward at Naruto first and they were clashing again. Naruto pushed him back and the ANBU had then used ninja wire to trap him and keep him immobile. But then something unexpected happened; he suddenly expelled a great amount of chakra and then had cut the strings off him.

Naruto thought, "That was just pure chakra, and he used it to cut himself free."

Then Tetsuya flared his chakra again and then let his sword be imbued in it. He slashed at them and the chakra had formed into a blade, but then they all dodged it. Then he effortlessly shaped a kunai by molding chakra and then threw it at Naruto, which was really fast that he couldn't avoid getting cut from it.

Naruto then formed the Rasengan in his right hand and held the kunai with his left. He ran forward and then avoided more chakra-kunai before throwing his in retaliation. Tetsuya had swiftly dodged the kunai and Naruto came closer to him. He brought the sword over his head to slash at Naruto again just as Naruto brought his hand back with the Rasengan to attack. Tetsuya brought the sword down when it was about an inch away from his shoulder. When suddenly, Naruto vanished and Tetsuya was shocked and before he could even defend himself, Naruto was behind him and then shouted, "Take this!"

Then he drove the Rasengan into Tetsuya's back and then he was pushed away and then he wound up being pushed off of the roof. Naruto ran to the edge of the roof and looked over to see that Tetsuya had at least stopped his fall with his sword by plunging it into the ground. But he had fallen to the ground in pain because of the Rasengan's force to his back. Naruto and the ANBU jumped down to the ground and surrounded Tetsuya.

Naruto said, "It's over, Tetsuya, come with us quietly or we'll have to bring you in by force."

Tetsuya said nothing but then he stood up slowly and said, "It seems I failed to capture another soul and I admit I have been defeated." He paused for a few seconds before proclaiming, "But I still must serve Aiko-sama, for her return to this world. Soon, you all will submit to the power she possesses and all will be her loyal followers by fear if need be."

Then he threw a smoke ball to the ground and the area was surrounded in smoke, temporarily covering his tracks. When the smoke cleared, he was gone and that left Naruto frustrated.

"Damn it!" Naruto cursed while gritting his teeth.

He bowed his head when he suddenly saw something on the ground. He walked closer to it, knelt down and then picked up a silver pendant on a leather cord; Tetsuya must have dropped it in his haste to get away. The pendant itself is in the shape of a dragon with sapphires that look like blue flames coming out of its mouth.

Naruto put the pendant into his pocket and then he took off back towards the Interrogation Corps building, all the while his mind was racing with thoughts of the man he just fought.

"Just who is he? And who is this Aiko-sama?" Naruto thought. So with determination, he sped up his pace to get there faster.

I at least gave you a bit of information on Tetsuya, his abilities will be more specific later. And if you haven't already guessed, yes, Naruto did use the Flying Thunder God Technique; I thought it was a technique that he could inherit since his father perfected it but it was something he had trouble with executing. Please feel free to leave a review. Thank you for waiting patiently.
