"He's lost it," said Hillary.
"There's no way Tyson can defeat that huge monster with just him, Kyuubi, and Dragoon by his side," commented Johnny.
The ninjas were silent as they heard the doubt in some of the bladers' words. Even some of the ninjas had a slight doubt within their hearts that Naruto, or Tyson, or whoever the person's name was now, could defeat that monstrosity. The only ones who weren't doubtful were Iruka, Tsunade, Jiraiya, Hiro, Grandpa Kinomiya, Brooklyn, Robert, Sai, Sasuke, Kai, Shikamaru, Gaara, Kakashi, Max, Ray, Kenny, and Itachi. "What are you guys on about," shouted Hiro.
"Yeha," said Brooklyn, "Tyson is the one who conquered everything! He will be just fine."
"For now," said Iruka, "We need to give Tyson some support and distract that monstrosity for Naruto!"
The bladers and the ninjas who were doubtful felt like they were slapped in the face. How could they have doubted Tyson/Naruto like that? Everyone nodded their heads and started to use their training to catch up with the monster that was called Juubi. Naruto/Tyson needs all the help he can get!
It feels like I have lost this fight
They think that I am staying down
But I'm not giving up tonight
Tonight the wall is coming down
I am stronger than my fears
This is the mountain that I climb
Got 100 steps to go
Tonight I'll make it 99
Naruto could feel the heat of the chakra ripple around the air he was running into. He felt scared that he could not defeat this beast. He was so used to using Dragoon to battle that he forgot what it was like to just be Naruto! Good thing Iruka came and knocked some sense into him. With Kyuubi's intense hearing, he heard what the people were saying about his abilities. "Do not listen to those mortals child," said Kyuubi within Naruto's mind.
'But what if they are right,' questioned Naruto.
"Tyson," started Dragoon, "You are Naruto and Tyson! You are a blader and a ninja! Are you going to let those words affect you now when they are in peril?"
'But,' started Naruto.
"Oh, just ignore them! We have bigger fish to fry," said Kyuubi as she faced Juubi.
Naruto swung to his left as a huge claw-like paw went to crush him. Kyuubi and Dragoon were not far from protecting Naruto from the Juubi. As Naruto looked around, he saw that the others stopped talking and started to do something to help. His eyes tear a bit as he saw all of his friends and Akatsuki working together as one huge team. 'Let's get this party started,' said Naruto in his mind while out loud he said, "KAGE BUSHIN NO JUTSU!"

"Go Naruto," shouted Ino and Sakura as they threw explosive tags at the monster.
"I don't think that explosive tags will help, un," said Deidara as he saw that the monster was getting irritated.
The bladers looked at each other as they sent their beyblades to counteract the blade that held the monster within. They were cursing at the scientists within their heads for doing something so idiotic. If you couldn't control the power, then you shouldn't bring it out in the first place. The monster roar loudly as it could feel the pain of the bladers's beyblades hitting against his imprisonment. Summoning their bitbeasts, the bladers and ninjas could see that they too were glowing, giving their own energy to power up their bitbeasts. "Sharigan," called out Sasuke and Itachi.
"Oh yeah," said Tsunade as she heard Sasuke and Itachi, "We could have tried to hold the Juubi's mind with the Sharingan."
"It will not work," said Gaara as he used is sand techniques to protect the bladers and his family.
"And why not," asked an irritated Ming Ming.
"Juubi doesn't have a mind to control. This massive being is all about bloodshed and destruction," said Gaara, "Well, that's what Shukaku told me before being extracted from me."
"Just great," said Li as he jumped out of the way of a massive chakra pulse.
"We just have to believe that Naruto will come through," said Kakashi as he thrust a Chidori at the monster's backside.

Naruto was sweating a lot. He could feel his energy being drained as long as he was near the monster. It was like the monster was sucking Kyuubi out of him. Kyuubi growled as she knew that this was something Juubi would do to reunite all the Bijuu together. "Naruto, you can't use on-face attacks," said Kyuubi.
'What,' shouted Naruto within his mind, 'Why?'
"Because Juubi is trying to suck all of the Bijuu together," said Dragoon.
Naruto's eyes widen as he realized that on-slaughter attacks will not work for him. Naruto jumped back and saw the monster's beady eyes looking straight into his soul, trying to find Kyuubi. Angered, Naruto turned up his Kyuubi's chakra-fied self and started to punch him. He used his shadow clone technique to make the monster confuse as he went back to the others for some help. 'I sure hope the others know how to help me somehow without getting that close,' said Naruto as he landed in front of the others.
I have everything to lose
By not getting up to fight
I might get used to giving up
So I am showing up tonight
I am my own enemy
The battle fought within my mind
If I can overcome step one
I can face the 99
"Tyson," shouted the bladers while the ninjas shouted, "Naruto!"
"Aren't you suppose to be fighting this thing," asked a questionable Gaara.
Naruto sighed heavily as he explained what the Juubi was doing while he was fighting. He told them the dilemma of him becoming weaker as Kyuubi was almost extracted from within him. Jiraiya, Tsunade, Iruka, and Kakashi looked alarmed as they went to check if Naruto was alright. As the bitbeasts distracted the huge Juubi, the bladers went to talk to the others to see what he can do. "So what can you do," asked Oliver.
"It's either fight in a distance or let Kyuubi get extracted out of me," said Naruto.
"Well, you better think of something fast," said Ozuma.
"Yeah," said Dunga, "Our bitbeasts are getting exhausted as are we!"
Naruto looked at his friends and decided that he would try his hardest to destroy the monstrosity. With Naruto's eyes narrowing into dark blue steel, he turned towards the monster and started to fight once more, using everything he learned in Konoha and his mindscape. The others cheered him on as they prepared their own chakra-induced attacks, such as the Chidori, Sand Coffin, and Tsunade's very hard punch.

Naruto, with Dragoon, flew to meet the monster head on. He will not let this monster get out of hand and destroy another of his home. Even though Konoha isn't his actual home, Konoha is still within his heart throughout this time. Naruto looked at Dragoon and saw his blue eyes mirror the understanding that he had. Kyuubi really wanted to come out of her seal just to teach this jerk a lesson. "KAGE BUSHIN NO JUTSU," shouted Naruto.
The eyes of the monster looked at the person who defied him so. He looked and saw Kyuubi growling within her cage, fueling this little brat. As the clones fought, the Juubi stumbled back a bit. He was overwhelmed with clones. The real Naruto produced a thin sword that had a dragon as an emblem on it. He didn't even hear Grandpa shouting something about the sword being the Dragoon sword from their family! "Dragon Tornado Slash," shouted Naruto as he tried the new kenjutsu Dragoon taught him.
A huge wave of wind formed around the sword and created a huge tornado in the center of the stadium. Everyone looked on in shock as the tornado went towards the monster and was more shock to see tiny little wounds forming all over the body. Blood began to fall down in droplets that made everyone run for cover. However, the monster was not yet to be deterred. With his massive chakra, he started to make Naruto become weaker than ever before. At last, the monster opened his mouth up and swallowed Naruto as a whole, trying to gain more of Kyuubi's powers that was already absorbed by him during the first part of the fight.

"Naruto," shouted Hinata.
"That thing just ate our friend," shouted Enrique.
"We have to do something, Tsunade-sama," said Shizune as she turned to the Hokage.
Tsunade bit her lip as she watched the monster laugh at eating Naruto. She could feel the energy given out even more before now. She looked at the ninjas and the bladers. Each and every one of them were getting exhausted from the strain of using their chakra and energy to help the bitbeasta nd their attacks. She saw that they couldn't do anything to help them. She healed most of the injuries that was caused by the backlash of the chakra emitted from the Juubi. "It's over," cried out Sakura.
"It can't be over," said Kiba, "We have to still protect everyone! Our families will be crushed by that monster!"
"Kiba," shouted Neji as TenTen stopped the raging Kiba, "It's over."
"Wait guys," said Emily, "Look!"
Everyone turned to see the Juubi becoming disoriented with a hint of shinging light purple, almost white, chakra. Everyone looked on to see what would happen next.

"Ugh," said Naruto, "What happened?"
"You are in my stomach, brat," said an unknown male voice.
Naruto shot up as he heard an unfamiliar voice. He looked around to see Dragoon unconscious and Kyuubi not far away from him. A chain was attached to Kyuubi from his stomach. Looking around more, he saw a child-like boy across form him. His hair was the color of Juubi's fur and his eyes were glowing red. "Who are you," shouted Naruto.
"Juubi," said Juubi.
"EH," shouted Naruto, "But you are a little kid!"
The child smirked as he disappeared and reappeared behind Naruto, hitting him hard on the neck that sent Naruto flying. Naruto hit a make-shift wall and fell to the ground. Grunting, he looked to see that there was blood coming out of his mouth. The kid just smirked evilly as he did the same thing over and over again. Naruto couldn't even do one jutsu or make a comeback. Dropping in front of Dragoon, Naruto winced as he tried to get up. "Give into Kyuubi's power," said Juubi, "Let me devour the power!"
That's what he wants, thought Naruto, Kyuubi's power!
Naruto gasped more as he was hit with fierce chakra. Dragoon and Kyuubi groaned as they tried to lift their snouts off of the floor. They barely opened their eyes to see Naruto being thrashed around like some doll by a little kid? Kyuubi smelled the stench of Juubi's chakra and knew that the kid was the last remaining mentality of the Juubi. "Get away from my kit," groaned Kyuubi as she eand Dragoon tried to lift their bodies up.
"The Kyuubi has graced us with her presence," said Juubi as the little kid smirked.
"Tyson," said Dragoon, "Don't let him get to you! We are a team!"
"Heh," said Kyuubi, "We've always been a team! Now you have to realize that too! Naruto! Remember! We all depend on each other as at eam, like a FAMILY!"
Naruto, semi-conscious, tried to get up from his battered body. The words that Kyuubi has said rang throughout his head. He already thought of them as family, but when has he ever let himself be known as a protector too? Naruto looked at the struggling Kyuubi and Dragoon. He knew that he had to protect them just as much as they protected him from the pain and the impossible. With that inner strength, Naruto stood upfrom the floor. "Nani," shouted Juubi as he saw Naruto stand up, "How can that be?"
"I won't let you harm my family," shouted Naruto as red and blue energy surrounded him.
"NANI," shouted Juubi as he shiled his eyes.
Kyuubi and Dragoon dissolved into red and blue particles. Those exact same particles flew into Naruto and glowed red and blue before Naruto glow light purple to white. The child backed away as Naruto produced clones by the thousand. It was time to show Juubi who he was messing with. As the clones attacked Juubi with everything they got, Naruto made a Rasegan as big as the room! "OODAMA RASENGAN," shouted Naruto as his fist connected to the Juubi as his clones disappeared.

Outside, everyone watched as the big form of the Juubi became a little bit small. They watched as Naruto burst from the stomach of the beast. Seeing Naruto fall, the ninjas and bladers quickly reacted to try and catch him. The huge demon, however, looked at everyone with a glare. "You lost me my bitbeast powers, you little brat," shouted Juubi as he tried to hurt Naruto.
"Ozuma, Jiraiya, get the rock ready," commanded Tsunade, "Everyone else, stall until they are ready!"
"Yes, ma'am," shouted everyone as they started once again.
The ninjas, with their energies refueled, started to send the demon back by only a little. The bladers, knowing that they needed to leave, ran for the exit and wished the other ninjas luck. Ozuma was the only blader to not leave, for he knew how to seal the big demon into a rock. With Jiraiya's expertise, the seal was finished. They will be sealing the demon away within a regular rock that wasn't fused with bitbeast powers. With the combine strength of the teams, they forced the demon back a bit more and had his foot stuck to the seal. Reacting quickly, Ozuma and Jiraiya got the demon sealed into the rock where Jiraiya sealed it within a sealing scroll for safe keeping. "We did it," said a happy Kurenai.
"Where's Naruto," shouted Iruka.
"Over here," said Lee as he picked up Naruto with ease from where he collapsed.
"Is it over," mumbled Naruto.
"Yes, Naruto," said Tsuande, "Yes it is."
"Heh," said Naruto, "I'm glad."
"Naruto/Tyson," shouted the bladers and ninjas as Naruto fell into unconsciousness.
You deserve a nice rest, gaki, thought Tsunade as everyone left the ruined arena alone.
