There are some character deaths in this one. I hope you enjoy and give me lots of reviews.
When Kiba hit the rock, he hit it hard. Of course what else do you expect when a man twice your size throws you? The man who threw him was Fusho Ataeru, one of the Vorreiters. He had split up with his platoon from the rest of the division as ordered only have Fusho chasing after them. Kiba's cockiness got the best of him and soon he engaged the man along with his platoon. The result was the complete slaughter of everyone by a laughing Fusho. The odd part was that no matter how much damage they did to him he seemed to be unaffected by it.
Right now he was laughing. "It's terrible! Terrible, terrible, terrible, terrible! It's terrible to fight someone so weak Inuzuka." Fusho said. With each word he walked closer and closer towards Kiba, with those gauntlets of his covered in blood. As he walked he kicked aside a wounded Akamaru, causing Kiba to let out a weak growl of anger.
Fusho laughed again. "Aw, is the little pup trying to act like a big bad wolf?" He asked mockingly. "Well forget it. Against me my power you are no match, the power of pain. You see his majesty bestowed the seal of pain on me, so that whatever damage I take allows me to absorb it and redirect it as an attack." Fusho had a nasty grin on his face. "Your kind is inferior to our might and his majesty's dream shall become a reality. Now die!"
And with that he threw a chakra spear from his gauntlets at Kiba. Kiba could barely move as he watched the spear heading straight towards him.
"Kaiton: Big Flame Bullet Jutsu!" And suddenly a giant wave of flame struck the chakra spear, resulting in a massive explosion that nearly blew Kiba away. The end result was a giant crater with smoke still coming out of the ground… and standing between Kiba and Fusho was…
"J-Jiraiya-sama?" Kiba asked in shock as the legendary Sannin stood in front of him. The white hair man had a determined look on his face as he stared down at Fusho. Fusho however wasn't really that intimidated, instead he was laughing.
"Oh my oh my! What a treat!" Fusho said as he cracked his knuckles. "I've been wanting to meet you Jiraiya the Toad Sage. Now I can have the honor of killing you! Oh his majesty will be please!"
The Toad Sage raised an eyebrow. "His majesty? Didn't know Naruto became royalty."
Fusho said nothing; instead he used Geist Schritt and teleported right in front of Jiraiya. The Sannin barely had enough time to get out of the way when a gauntlet destroyed the area where he was standing moments ago. The result of the impact sent a massive crack in the ground that headed straight towards Kiba. Kiba barely had enough time to get free of the rock and jump out of the way as the crack opened wide enough and consumed the rock.
Fusho created several chakra spears from Nature Chakra and threw them at Jiraiya. The man used every skill he had to dodge since they exploded upon impact. Jiraiya was trying to form a hand seal as he dodged. When he finally got it he yelled, "Doton: Swamp of the Underworld Jutsu!" And suddenly Fusho's feet began to sink into the ground, which had become like water in a swamp. While his opponent was momentarily stunned and unable to move, Jiraiya formed another set of hand seals. "Doton: Earth Flow River Jutsu! Doton: Earth Dragon Bullet Jutsu! And Kaiton: Great Fireball Jutsu!" The first jutsu created a path of mud towards Fusho, throwing him even more off balance. The second jutsu formed a dragon's head of earth and fired concentrated mud, which was combined with fire by the third and last jutsu. Fusho watched as the combo attack came flying right at him. 'Damn that's more then my ability can handle.' He thought to himself as he activated his Blut Stahl in defense mode just as the attack struck him and exploded.
Jiraiya sensed the change in chakra in Fusho's body, giving him a realization. 'Looks like that seal of his can only absorb so much damage. That means I have to keep pressing the attack.' With that Jiraiya charged through the smoke created by the combo attack's explosion. In his right hand the Rasengan began to form as he jumped into the air. When the smoke cleared it revealed Fusho, who had some burnt marks on his clothes but was nevertheless okay. He saw Jiraiya coming at him from the air and automatically prepared to strike him back with his gauntlet. When the gauntlet and the Rasengan connected it created a small shockwave that sent the Toad Sage flying backwards and causing Fusho's hand to get dozens of scratches with blood flying out.
"You Bastard!" Fusho screamed at Jiraiya as he took some of his blood and formed some hand signs. "Weg Salbeis: Salbei Wunde Seele (Sage of Wounded Soul)
Jiraiya's eyes widened as the man's form began to change. Remembering from the information that he got from Inoichi, he knew that might not be able to stand against him. Acting quickly he formed some hand signs. "Summoning: Overworked Tea House Sealing Jutsu!" And coming out of the ground was a large teahouse that had toad statues on every corner of it. It surrounded Fusho and when it was finally up the doors and windows all shut with the kanji of seal on them.
Kiba, who had been watching the whole time while helping Akamaru, was amazed at what had just happened. Once he got his partner back to his feet, the two ran over to Jiraiya who was panting. "Jiraiya-sama, are you okay?" Kiba asked.
Jiraiya took in some air before standing up. "Yeah I'm fine kid, but that barrier won't hold him for long." And as if to prove his point, there was banging inside and small parts of the barrier began to break. "Kid you go and join up with another platoon." Jiraiya said.
"What about you?" Kiba asked quizzically.
Jiraiya began to walk away from Kiba before replying, "I'm going to deal with the source of the problem." And with that took off.
Kakashi grunted as another thorn scratched his side. So far he managed to do a good job of fighting against Yume despite his newly acquired powers. Guy, Sakura and Lee were fighting against the other Vorreiter, whose name apparently was Hakai. That one apparently had the seal of anger in him, feeding off the anger of others to increase his own strength.
But right now Kakashi had to focus on his own fight. He dodged several more thorns and then made a beeline towards Yume. Yume fired more chakra balls at Kakashi, small ones so he wouldn't use too much of his chakra. This made it easier for the Konoha-nin to dodge them as he prepared his chidori. When Kakashi was close enough he lunged the chidori forward. However before it struck home Kakashi had another series of flashes in his mind, the same kind he had when one of Yume's thorns impaled him. He saw Obito and Rin being killed brutally by Yume along with his mother who was crying out for him and his father. 'H-how?' Kakashi thought. 'None of his thorns touched me?'
Before he could think of an explanation Kakashi felt something strike him in the chest. He looked and saw that Yume had impaled him with his own hand. Kakashi gasped as he managed to pull the hand out and backed away a few feet. His vision started to become blurry as he glared at Yume.
Yume smirked underneath his mask. "My armor allows me to radiated a small field of fear. That way if an opponent was to get close to me, they would feel a little bit of fear." Then his thorns began to light up as chakra started to form in balls from the thorn's tips. "And now" Yume said, "Time for you to die, Kakashi Hatake."
"I-I'm not done yet!" Kakashi said as he activated his Mangekyo Sharingan, using Kamui on Yume. Yume could feel the technique take affect on his right arm as a dimensional vortex began to form around it. If Yume didn't move quickly then it would engulf his entire body. Acting quickly Yume cut off his right arm and once he was at a fair distance fired the chakra balls while his arm disappeared. Kakashi was about to collapse onto the ground when the ten-chakra balls struck his body, creating holes in his chest, his legs and arms. Kakashi spit out blood as his vision finally went dark, his last thoughts on everything in his life that he hadn't finished yet, and on his teammates too, the ones he had failed to protect.
"Kakashi-sensei!" Sakura cried as she watched her sensei lie motionless on the ground. Before she could run to him, Hakai landed a punch right into her left cheek. The impact was strong enough to send her flying. "Don't get distracted during a fight bitch! It an't good for ya!"
After seeing Sakura being struck like that, Lee became more enraged and charged Hakai, only to be stopped by Guy. "Guy-sensei?" Lee asked.
Guy had a calm look on his face. "Calm yourself Lee, remember this man feeds off anger. Attacking how you were about to will not end this fight. We must attack calmly and precisely."
Lee looked at his sensei before nodding. "Hai!" And then the two charged Hakai together with blinding speed.
Kaasage felt the chakra disappear from where he was. "It seems that Kakashi Hatake has died." He said to Naruto.
Naruto, who was surrounded by the motionless forms of the Surprise Attack Division, merely replied, "I see"
Kaasage raised an eyebrow. "You do not seem saddened by his lost. Was he not your sensei?"
Naruto looked at Kaasage with emotionless eyes before replying, "We are at war Kaasage. He is, was, an enemy. We do not mourn the enemy, we kill them on sight in order to ensure that we bring this world closer to peace."
Suddenly a ninja, Uzushio by the looks of it, appeared bowing before Naruto. "Your Majesty I bring news from the North."
Without looking Naruto said, "Speak then"
"Hai! The army moves at a steady rate and the Alpha Core has begun seizing the coastline of the Lightning Country. However a recon unit faced some trouble from the North." When Naruto said anything, the ninja continued, "It was an army of agile white beings being led by man in robes. We've identified them as Akatsuki."
"I see" Naruto said, his face calm and collected. "Kaasage how many Vorreiters do we have in reserve?"
Kaasage touched his forehead with his pointer finger and closed his eyes for a few seconds. When he opened them he replied, "Seven your majesty, including Osaeru."
Naruto nodded and turned towards the ninja. "Tell all units near where the sighting was to form defensive circles around the main army. Have them protect the army from any surprise attacks. Once the army has reached the Lightning Country and set up a base we'll then counter the Akatsuki force."
The ninja bowed before leaving. Naruto then turned towards Kaasage. "Have our remaining Vorreiters go and hold out in some of the paths that Akatsuki might use to bypass the Allied Shinobi Forces. Then have our some of our other Vorreiters move to assist them. But I want Osaeru to head towards the area where the Daimyos are. Tell him to capture them and kill any opposition."
Kaasage bowed his head. "Understood your majesty."
Elsewhere with the 4th Division, or one of its platoons, a fierce battle was happening between Gaara, his platoon and five of the Vorreiters: Kansho Hanabira, Yaku Uesuto, Kirai Sanso, Bijon Dobutsu and Sakushi Omotai. The formers was personally engaged with Gaara while the other four fought the platoon he was with, which consisted of Shikamaru, Choji, Temari and Matsuri. So far Kansho and Gaara were evenly match, what with the former using flower petals and Gaara naturally using his sand as their weapons. Both proved effective in both the area of offense and defense and the proof was in their battle.
As Kansho dodged another attack of sand he said, "You know it's a shame that you decided to side against us Gaara-dono. His majesty had just high hopes in you."
Gaara raised a wall of sand to deflect an attack of flowers. The impact almost made the sand break but it held firm. 'Such power' Gaara thought. 'How can these petals have such strength in them?' Then he looked at Kansho. "I would rather stick to my beliefs then join you." He said in retaliation.
Kansho smirked at the answer before raising his hands. Suddenly the large numbers of flower petals flew in the air above. "Raining Blades!" Kansho shouted, and hundreds to thousands of petals ran from the sky and headed straight towards Gaara immediately raised the sand to be above him and used it as a shield against the petals. When the petals struck the sand, the deflected off of the sand or were stuck into it. Either way, the sand wall began to break due to the onslaught. When the petals began to break through Gaara created a ball of sand around him in order to act as a secondary defense when the petals were about to strike him. However the petals managed to push the sand ball down, causing it to crash into the ground
Matsuri dodged an attack from Sakushi when she looked to see how Gaara was doing. "Gaara-sama!" She cried as she watched her boyfriend land on the ground. She was so focus on Gaara that she did not see Bijon charging her. "You better worry about yourself then your precious boy friend girly!" He yelled, as he was about to rip her to shreds only to be blasted away by a strong gust of wind. Matsuri looked to see Temari running up to her, her fan out and ready for battle. "Don't lose focus Matsuri." Temari said. "Gaara can take care of himself, just worry about these bastards."
Matsuri took in a breath of air before giving Temari and determined nod.
Back with Gaara, the young Kazekage had not taken that much damage from the attack but still was a little weary from the impact. Kansho walked up to him casually, a smirk on his face. "I believe that it is time for me to end this." He said as he bit his finger, drawing some blood. Then he began to form some hand signs. "Wieg Salbeis: Salbei Bereich Kligen (Sage of the field of Blades)
Suddenly the flower petals began to swarm around Kansho, covering his body from anyone else's view. When the petals went down, Kansho's form had changed. He was now floating in mid air with the help of strong vines that held him up. His armor was green and surrounded with vines and swords. He wore no helm on his head. Kansho smirked at a shocked Gaara before pointing forward. "Go" He said and suddenly the blades began to disperse into thousands of flow petals, soon joining the ones already out and about and charged at Gaara. The Kazekage just had enough time to raise a wall of sand to protect him from the oncoming attack. But he was not prepared when a few dozen petals came out of the ground and slashed against Gaara's chest, breaking through his sand armor and causing blood to fly into the air. Everyone paused from what they were doing, watching in horror as Gaara's sand wall fell down due to him losing control, allowing Gaara to be struck by the large numbers of petals that soon covered his body. This caused everyone to shout one thing:
"Gaara-sama!"
How's that for a chapter? Next chapter will have Akatsuki joining the war. I hope you're all ready for more awesomeness? Because if you're not I'll sick the Vorreiters on you!
