I don't own Naruto, anything that has to do with Star Wars, or [Prototype]. My life sucks.
Chapter 11: combat begins!
As soon as the word Hajime was said Omoi launched himself at Naruto. The boy dodged to the left to avoid the well aimed strike to his head. Naruto then drew back his arm and unleashed a powerful right hook that crashed into the white haired boy's jaw knocking him backwards.
Naruto rubbed his fist as he forgot that his strength was sealed away.
Omoi slammed his feet into the ground and charged again this time unleashing a combo of moves. Naruto got into a stance that made the Sandaime Hokage's eyes widen.
Naruto blocked a strike coming at his face before sending out a strike to Omoi's shoulder making him fall back. Naruto then unleashed a flurry of strikes. Omoi tried to block them all, but was found himself hit a few times. Naruto then spun on his heel and slammed a powerful kick into Omoi's midsection and knocked him backwards and onto his back.
In the stands Kirabi was surprised at seeing his student get knocked around. He made a mental note not to mess with Naruto in the future because he would be a force to be reckoned with.
Omoi shot up from his spot on the ground and said, "Impressive. It seems that you have gotten your hands on a forbidden technique that has greatly increased your strength to where you don't need that shape shifting power of yours."
Naruto raised an eyebrow while everyone else in the place just looked confused.
Naruto turned to face the contestant booth and yelled, "Is he always like this?"
From the booth Karui yelled, "Yes!"
Naruto then turned back to Omoi who he found going through hand signs.
"Oh nuts," Naruto said.
"Lightning Release: False Darkness!"
A spear shaped bolt of lighting shot from the cloud ninja's hands. Naruto quickly went through hand signs of his own and called out his attack.
"Wind Release: Great Wind Tunnel!"
Naruto took a deep breath and fired a large funnel of wind from his mouth. The wind acted as an insulator and the lighting jutsu dispersed. Omoi was then hit by the cyclone.
Omoi caught himself in mid-flight and landed on the ground with a wince.
Up in the stands Temari thought, 'How did he do that? That move is a Suna technique!'
Omoi glared at Naruto with a rare look of anger that came across his face. The white haired Kumo ninja then brought out his sword.
Naruto grinned as he took out the scroll he had on his back. As Naruto was unraveling the scroll Omoi charged wit the intent of not letting him unseal what he had. As he neared the preoccupied blonde the ground in front of him shattered.
A clone jumped up and grabbed Omoi in a bear hug.
"I don't think so," the clone said before growling out, "Uzumaki Style: Humming Bird Crash!"
The Naruto clone pushed Omoi away and unleashed a combo of strikes that knocked the boy away. The clone then knocked Omoi in to the air and jumped up and slammed a kick into Omoi's stomach before slamming his heel into his back knocking him to the ground before dispersing in a cloud of smoke.
Omoi got up from the ground while his body yelled at him for doing so. He was then brought out of his musing when he saw puff of smoke envelop Naruto's hands.
The smoke cleared revealing a beautiful pair of katana. The long swords were made of an almost black material. The hilts had a pair of, what resembled, bird wings acting as hand guards. On each sword a red crystal was imbedded into the hilt.
Naruto hten looked at Omoi who had gotten to his feet. Naruto kicked the boy's sword over to him. Naruto then got into a sword stance and made a "Come here" motion.
Omoi grabbed his sword and charged at Naruto. The blonde launched himself forward and the two met with a loud clang and a shower of sparks. Naruto blocked a horizontal slash with one sword and countered by swinging another in a vertical slash. Omoi dodged the slash, but couldn't dodge a quickly pair of stabs to his side.
The swords cut Omoi's arm. The boy jumped back and swung the sword ina horizontal arc.
"Cloud Style: Crescent Moon Beheading!"
Naruto brought up both swords and blocked the attack. The pair pushed against one another in a stalemate. Finally Naruto pushed back and spun around swinging both of his weapons. Omoi dodged the swing, but he was intercepted by a side kick to the head.
Omoi lost the grip on his sword. Naruto then charged at the temporarily dazed boy and focused chakra into his gauntlet. The glvoe hardened and formed a metal glove.
Naruto drew back his arm and said, "Uzumaki Style: Grand Knockout!"
A loud crunch was heard as the fist slammed into the cloud genin's jaw and a loud crack was heard as the boy's jaw was unhinged and he was sent flying into the wall with a loud crash. The smoke cleared revealing Omoi was out cold.
"Winner: Naruto Uzumaki Fukyuu."
The crowed cheered loudly at the amazing fight that they saw. Naruto smirked and went up to the fighters booth while Omoi was taken by medical examiners to see if he had broken anything…other than his jaw.
"Now then," Genma said as Omoi was taken from the field, "Will Haku Momochi and Karui come down to the field so we can start the next match?" The two girls made their way to the village. A few of the male villagers chuckled amongst themselves saying that the only thing missing were swimsuits and a tub full of mud. They were then whacked over the head by girls who were nearby.
'Now," Genma said as the two girls stood across from one another, "the second match of the Chuunin exams finals can begin. Hajime!"
Karui started the match herself and swung a powerful right hook. Haku blocked the attack and struck out her left leg kicking the red head in the stomach knocking her backwards. Karui made note of an incredibly cold feeling in her stomach region where she was kicked.
Haku got into a stance and a pair of icicles formed in her hands acting as daggers. The ice user launched herself at Karui. The hot headed Kumo Kunoichi dodged the attacks, but managed to get a small cut on the shoulder where one go at little too close.
Karui jumped back to avoid the sharp points of frosty doom. Haku then threw the two frozen projectiles and went through a few hand signs.
"Ice Release: Frozen Breeze!"
As Karui avoided the two icicles a sudden frozen wind came through and chilled the red haired girl down to the bone.
She was then the victim of a sudden kick to the face. Haku then spun on her heel and hit Karui's arm stopping it as she tried to reach for her sword. Haku then grabbed the girl's other arm and pulled her forward and slammed her fist into Karui's stomach making her double over. Haku then slammed her knee into the girl's stomach and threw her forward.
Haku smirked and asked, "Is that all you got?"
Karui grabbed her sword and shot up like a bullet and swung her sword intent on cutting Haku. The ice user quickly pulled out her own sword and blocked the strike with a loud clang. The pair stood off for a few seconds. Before Haku sent chakra into her sword making it a lot colder. The material in Karui's sword handle became hard to hold and she eventually let go before Haku spun on her heel and slammed her foot into her stomach knocking her over.
As Karui charged again after recovering Haku grabbed her and whispered.
"Ice Release: Ice Age."
Suddenly Karui was covered in ice from the shoulder's down. Try as she might Karui couldn't break through the ice.
"Winner: Haku Momochi."
Haku turned to the proctor and said, "Actually my name is Haku Koori Momochi."
The proctor apologized and repeated what Haku said.
As the next match between Samui and Hinata was called Mei rose from her seat and motioned for her three genin to come up with her. As she did Kenshin, Ao, and Zabuza went up with them wanting an explanation.
When they were alone Mei turned to her the three and said, "Okay you three I want an explanation! Zabuza told me that he got a message from a bunch of animals that his students were being trained by them, so please tell me…what happened when you were here?"
Haku said, "Well Naruto had this dream where we found this tree in, what Konoha calls, the forest of death. When we got there we found a hollowed portion and fell into a large temple where we found three different scrolls. When we picked them up we fell into three different sections of the of the temple and were trained with the summon animals. My happened to be the arctic wolves which were the members of my clan before they were nearly wiped out."
Mei turned to Chojuro who said, "I happened to find the shark clan who…you know what I don't want to ruin the surprise."
Mei huffed at not being told anything.
She then turned to Naruto with a curious glance.
"I notice you didn't use your bloodlines during your fight," Mei said, "Why is that Naruto-kun?"
Naruto sighed and said, "It is a part of my test. The raven boss said that I rely to much on my bloodline. I went through all my past battles in my head and found out that he was right. He sealed away my bloodlines and said that if I performed admirably in the finals then he would unseal them and let me use his clan in combat."
Haku said, "Sounds like we all got the same deal. Do good in the tournament and we get a summon."
Choujuro then faced Zabuza and said, "By the way I talked to the shark clan. They said they would allow Kiri to summon them again…if they are proved to be worthy of them."
The old swordsman nodded. He made a mental note to gather some of the more level headed ninja to try and rebuild the 7 swordsmen.
With that the genin went back to the fighter's booth. As they did Mei stopped Naruto. The blonde looked back at his leader and asked, "Yes Mizukage-sama?"
Mei said, "I noticed you used regular swords instead of your normal ones. Why is that?"
Naruto gave the woman a smirk and said, "Now Mei-chan…that would be telling."
Mei pouted cutely making Naruto chuckle before going to join his friends down in the fighter's booth. As Naruto made his way to the booth eh saw Sami win her fight against Hinata. Samui used a lightning jutsu while Hinata formed a dome of chakra around her with a technique called Rotation to block the attack. However the attack was actually transferred by her chakra and electrocuted her. The poor girl was knocked out in an instant.
The next match was pretty interesting to say the least. Shin used his swarms of insects to try and drain Sai of his chakra. Fortunately for Sai his ink creatures were made of chakra and were capable of absorbing the chakra in the ink creatures. On top of that the ink was also surprisingly stick and acted as a type of flypaper making it had for the insects to get around. Sai then tried to slice open Shino with his tanto. Sadly for him the Aburame had plenty more kikai bugs in his body. As Sai swung Shino ducked underneath the blade and caught Sai in a bear hug unleashing insects and drained enough chakra for Sai to lose consciousness.
When the match between Gaara and Sasuke came up it didn't look like Sasuke was going to show. At the last second Sasuke and Kakashi appeared in a sudden swirl of leaves.
"Our entrance was much cooler," Naruto said.
Sasuke then bombarded with speedy attacks that had obviously been taken from Lee. In the stands Lee was ranting along with Gai about thte unyouthfullness that had been committed by the stealing of his techniques. Gaara was actually prepared in this. Since becoming more rational he had thought up of ways to beat a faster enemy. Gaara laid out a sand trap making Sasuke get his feet stuck. Gara then lifted the Uchiha up into the air and formed a bunch of sand tendrils that proceeded to beat the crud out of the Uchiha. When Gaara was declared the winner he unceremoniously dropped the boy on the ground. The medics rushed off to save their precious Uchiha.
The next match was between Shikimaru and Temari. The blonde wind mistress in training dominated most of the fight by keeping the shadow user at bay by using her wind attacks. Shikimaru proved to be an adept strategist by using different plans to extend his shadow's reach. One of such involved sending his coat off to act like a parachute an another by managing to open up a tunnel underground. Eventually the Nara heir managed to capture Temari with his shadow, but he then had to withdraw because of his lack of chakra.
"Now," Genma said as Shikimaru left the field, "Will Chojuro and Kankuro come down to the arena so we can get this over with?"
The pair got down into the ring and stared off at one another.
"Ready? Hajime!"
Kankuro immediately reached for his pack to take out his puppet only for Chojuro to intercept his arm by grabbing it. Chojuro then shot his other arm with a quick jab to the face and then spun around on his heel slamming his foot into Kankuro's stomach making him double over and was then smashed away by a powerful chakra enhanced left hook.
Kankuro was sent rolling. When he stopped he spat on the ground spitting out some extra blood.
In the stands Nami giggled and said, "That's my boyfriend."
Kankuro snarled before he whipped out his puppet which had multiple arms and a deformed looking face with spiky black hair and three eyes. This was Kankuro's puppet called Crow
"I'd like to see you combat this jerk!" Kaankuro said with a smirk.
Chojuro simply smirked back. He reached for the two handles on the back and pulled his sword off. Then he tore the two handles away from each other slicing the bandages wrapping it to ribbons. This revealed a pair of swords that had jagged blades on the inside that resembled shark's teeth and the outside of the blades resembled the head and the lower jaw of a shark so that when you put it together it looks like shark head.
The boy got into a stance and faced Kankuro.
Kankuro's puppet fired its head forward with its mouth opened and a long metal spike coming out. Chojuro blocked the oncoming strike, and bashed the head way before slicing through the strings.
Crow launched itself forward with its bladed arms stretched out and ready to crush and slice the boy.
Chojuro quickly fused his two swords and went through a pair of one sided hand signs.
"Water Release: Water Rebound!"
Water burst from the pipes underground and wrapped around Chojuro blocking all four of Crow's arms. The wall of water then pushed crow backwards before sending out tendrils that sliced off the puppet's arms. The blue haired boy then launched himself at the puppet with his swords still fuse. He pushed the handles closer together making the jaws open and then chomped Crow in half making it useless.
Chojuro then ran up to Kankuro and delivered a vicious uppercut and knocked the man off the ground. Chojuro then jumped on top of the now prone boy and placed the jaws of his merged swords at his throat.
"Say it," Chojuro said with a smirk.
"I surrender," the puppet user said begrudgingly.
Chojuro was declared the winner the crowd burst into cheers at the sigh of the match. Chojuro looked up into the stands and saw Nami blow him a kiss. Chojuro caught and put it in his pocket. Nami giggled slightly up in the stands.
"Now," Genma said, "The next match will be between Gaara nd naruto Fukyu."
The pair of powerhouses came down from the fighter's booth and stood across from each other.
"You beat me before in the desert near my home," Gaara said, "I will not lose to you again."
Naruto drew his swords out and said, "That remains to be seen sand boy."
Just as the proctor was about to yell Hajime white feathers rained down on the stadium. While people started to fall asleep the ninja among them made a ram sign and said, "Kai."
Then a huge explosion came up from the kage booth. A group of ninja from Suna and Oto then appeared and started going for the civilians in the group. Luckily for them some hidden ANBU came down as well and stopped the slaughter.
Naruto faced his teammates as a large explosion rose up from the kage booth.
"Guys," Naruto said, "Get Zabuza, Kagome, Kenshin, and Zabuza up there. Mei-sama may need help. We'll take down anyone who tries to get in the way. Got it? And go!"
With that the group of genin sprung into action while the mist jonin and former demons shot up to the kage box to defend the Mizukage.
Cut! Madness rains down all around us. Let the chaos that is the attack on Konoha begin. Next time things are going to get hectic and Orochimaru proves just how crazy he can be. Okay see you!
