Not much to say, other than apologizing for the accident last Chapter. If you were one of the people who reviewed telling me about it, thank you, I accidentally clicked the wrong story on the Update thingy. I deleted the chapter and reposted it to make sure you got another alert telling you about it. Gomenosai. Also this Chapter, it's the first battle of Jinchuriki vs. Jinchuriki in a death match. I'm still having problems with my computer. that plus my mode of transportation is in the shop makes it almost impossible to get a chapter up. but happy Holidays so here you go...
The Battle Part Two
Uh-oh, every Iwa ninja thought to themselves.
Gekko was having a coughing fit due to the energy starting to permeate the air around them.
"Who wants to die first, huh? What's wrong scared of me? Your mothers must be so proud of you."Naruto taunted the Iwa ninja. They killed his best friend. Their judgment was nigh. And their judge was the Angel of Death.
Naruto created some Kage-bunshin. They pelted the enemy with Feathers shot out of their wings. He was using them to fence all his opponents into one area of the Field. When they were as close as he could get them he pulled out his sword. Running Chakra through it, he jumped high in the air above them and unveiled his newest jutsu. "Azruraerue no Handan" He cried as he started slicing with his sword. The air hummed with his chakra as wave after wave of supper compressed, fuuton enhanced slices rained down like a holy judgment upon the Iwa forces. After about two minutes, the Iwa force had lost half of their remaining total to a single technique. Sasuke, Sakura, Kiba, Kakashi, and Gekko looked at the blond genin, Shino was unreadable as always behind his glasses, and Hinata was motionless.
They knew Naruto. He was a friend, but he had just killed a lot of their opponents. Zabuza was shocked like nothing before. His failed coup had been against the six tails. This was one and a half times the power the Mizukage had used to defeat him.
Gekko was stunned, sure, he had taught the kid Kami-Kiri to aid in his long-range arsenal a fuuton user's greatest weakness, but still… To have devised a way to perform multiple Kami-Kiri was amazing. The child's chakra reserves were monstrous. Hinata had recently regained consciousness, as she was unable to sleep when her reason for improving and living was so upset. Their bond was too strong for a simple concussion to stop her from being able to comfort her soul mate. When she looked at him though, she was nearly blinded by the chakra. Realizing she still had her bloodline active, she shut it off.
All of a sudden Zabuza was blasted out of the trees. Haku followed close behind. Zabuza had multiple wounds all over his body that had cauterized shut.
Then a man with a boiler on his back appeared on the field. Iwa ninja started celebrating. Their Jinchuriki was in play to combat the Namikaze. Their cries died out as Naruto sent a wave of killer intent at them.
Han was standing looking at Naruto. He was a tall and imposing man. Naruto was staring at the man, his feral eyes glaring at him.
"Hello, Namikaze-san I know it isn't very pleasant but I must kill you. I hope you know I hold great respect for you on a personal note. But this is business. I'm sorry but you must die. I shall be your executioner. My name is Han no Juubi."
Naruto's Cloak of chakra resembled fire when you looked at it. And with his wings, they couldn't help but to think of a phoenix with a flaming body like that of a bird.
Naruto meanwhile was still staring at Han. The Kyuubi's energy was Swirling as he looked at the man. "Why… Why must we kill each other? You are like me, a Jinchuuriki…"
Han looked at the boy. Stating his opinion on why a shinobi killed he said, "We are tools, we are swords wielded by opposing warriors. The katana doesn't need to know why it cuts an opponent. It was designed to do so. It serves its purpose. Without purpose, there would be no katana. Shinobi are merely the pawns in their superior's games. All that matters is that our superiors' views differ. That is why Shinobi must kill. Killing is necessary to prove who is correct. "
"So that's what being a shinobi is about… killing for our views. Then I will kill so I won't have to kill anyone again. If I can avoid war through killing, I will." Naruto said.
Han then started to do hand seals, Shouting "Suchīmuton: Suchīmu Kama!" The boiler on his back creating clouds of steam that quickly created a dome around the two Jinchuriki. Now we are trapped in here. You shall die in here Namikaze-san."
Naruto was worried. He didn't know a technique to get himself out of this dome. He didn't know any large-scale Fuuton jutsu that could get rid of the steam. And he wouldn't have another Gabriel's Judgment in him for at least an hour.
"Give up. You cannot kill me yet. You aren't ready to fight another Jinchuriki yet. Even if you have Kyuubi in you, your Coils can't even use a full tail of power yet, whereas I can use all five of my bijuu's Tails." Han said trying to get the Namikaze to surrender and die peacefully as opposed to in pain. Han didn't care about people but he could sympathize with a fellow Jinchuriki. That didn't mean he would spare the boy but he would kill him painlessly.
Naruto knew this to be true, just as he was about to try an improvised Fuuton jutsu, he saw Han doing Hand seals, shouting, "Suchimu Ansatsu" A sword of steam came from behind him and pierced his heart. Naruto dodged and instead was impaled on his wing. Close to his heart. Naruto's heart had been missed by a centimeter. He fell to the invaded his vision as he realized what happened… "Kuso!" He said.
Han swallowed his breath. While he had hoped to get the boy to surrender, he had decided that the smart thing was to backstab the boy while he thought. Ninja didn't need compassion. He never got any all of his life.

In Naruto's mind, Kyuubi brought Naruto before him. "Baka, all that training and yet you can't kill someone four tails beneath you?"
"I didn't want to kill anyone." Naruto protested.
"And look what happened to Hinata because of it. Kit if you can't protect your mate, you don't deserve to keep her." Kyuubi said angrily.

Han asked The Gobi, 'Did I kill him?'
"Fool, the Kyuubi Jinchuriki wouldn't just roll over and die. This battle isn't going to be easy at any level." The Five tailed Dolphin-Horse said.
'But the Jinchuriki is only a fresh Genin, Not even a teen.'
"You sound like that fool of a Hachibi Jinchuriki."
'Be nice.' Han scolded his bijuu.
That was as nice as I can be about that idiot from Kumo.

Naruto was getting up, but Naruto wasn't in the wheel, not this time… This was Kyuubi taking over for a short time.
Han looked worried. That spear should have killed this brat. I hit the heart I thought… No-one can survive that…
His Bijuu then sounding smug said in his mind. "I hate to say it but I told you so. The Kyuubi always could regenerate his limbs and you forgot about his wings, they were in the way…"
Reaching out his left hand, he shot a chakra paw out and it picked Han up and then smashed him on the ground, He was dragged along and the front of his Armor was heavily damaged by the dragging.
Han was trying to think up a solution. I can't kill him now… not with my armor damaged to such an extent…
"I give up." He said. He knew the kid was averse to killing him so he used this ploy to weasel his way out of death, he stopped pumping Chakra to the Suchīmuton: Suchīmu Kama so it dispersed itself.
"I don't give a damn, you fool!" Kyuubi said, "This is the first time I got to fight in thirteen years and I am having too much fun to stop now!" With that the possessed Jinchuuriki formed a hand seal and created a kage-bunshin.
"If he gave up why keep attackin?" Naruto asked almost to himself while he wrenched the metaphysical reins from the Kyuubi
"NO, he hurt Hinata, don't you care about that?" Kyuubi shouted as Naruto wrenched back control.
"Sorry for the interruption where were we?"
I was almost killed and all he says is it was an interruption…
This kid is unbelievable… Han thought to himself. "I am almost out of chakra and I can't hope to do any more to you for now with my armor so damaged… You win this battle Namikaze. When I was waiting in the woods I happened on a baby demon and showed it a real demon. Needless to say the demons retainer is still crying probably. Oh and the kunoichi is still alive.
"I suggest you leave before I rethink letting you live…" Naruto responded some anger touching his voice but mostly it was grief at taking life for the first time and for the death of Zabuza. Tinged with relief that his most of his precious people survived.
Hope you enjoyed this Chapter The Final chapter in Wave will Happen next time. I know I said it would happen this time… another thing people might be upset about is Naruto beating Han… two things decided the battle… Han forgot Naruto's wings were in the way and he underestimated Naruto. Never do that… It always leads to defeat.
Jutsu Corner:Big battle sequence I had tons of Jutsu all in Japanese, here is their translations and what they do.
no Handan-Gabriel's Judgment
Ten Kami-Kiri consecutively, Suchīmuton: Suchīmu Kama:Steam-style: Steam cauldron
Surrounds Han and his opponent with a Dome of Super heated Steam. Humans can't go through it, as it would scald them to Death
Suchīmuton: Suchimu Ansatsu:Steam-style, Steam Assassin
Shoots out a blade of Steam, The wound cauterizes afterward if it is early enough in the fight, because as soon as it is used, it begins to cool down. Naruto is able to last long enough to prevent Cauterization. Therefore, the Kyuubi had the chance to heal his injury. Had the wound cauterized then he would be dead. That's the closest shave ever in this story.
