I Don't Own Naruto
"First match up will be Naruto Uzumaki verses Kanira Okami followed then by Yugito Nii verses Gaia Uzumaki, then finally Haku Yuki verses Sayuri Uchiha" said the announcer the six people nodded two of them with feral smirks on their faces.
"You have ten minutes to make any last minute preparations before these finals begin use them well" said the announcer. Naruto turned to Gaia who nodded and the shunshined outside the arena to an isolated place.
"Sorry Gaia-chan" said Naruto.
"It's fine Naru-kun just be quick about it" said Gaia, Naruto got close and leaned Gaia's head to the side and sunk his fangs into her neck sucking out some blood. After a moment Naruto stopped and leaned back with his head facing upwards as Gaia's blood flowed into his system, his sclera turned pitch black and his irises went blood red.
"We should probably head back" said Naruto.
"You go ahead I need to do one last thing" said Gaia disappearing in a swirl of sand. Naruto looked around and shrugged before disappearing in a swirl of rose petals he appeared back in the arena with five minutes left.
#Five Minutes Later#
Naruto stood in the arena facing 'mutt' Gaia had returned moments after he did and had retaken her position in the stands with Sayuri, Haku, Yugito, Kakashi and Mabui.
"Let this first match of the finals BEGIN" called the announcer.
Naruto jumped back and pulled out Kaosu toge and flipped it up into the air letting it disintegrate into petals that spun into a cyclone protecting him as he pulled out Kubikiribocho ready to attack.
"Finally get to rip you to shreds bat" said Kanira with a sick grin on his face.
"Yeah good luck with that 'Mutt'" said Naruto spinning the giant butcher's knife in one hand ready to slaughter.
'Mutt' growled and let out howl before he dropped down to the ground and let out a beastly roar, and his body began to deconstruct itself and then began reforming into the man beast hybrid. With three foot long claws ready to rip Naruto to shreds, before anyone could blink Kanira was upon Naruto and ran his claws straight through Naruto only for Naruto to disintegrate into bats flying backwards once more reforming into Naruto holding his giant blade.
"Come now dog breath seriously?" questioned Naruto swinging his blade in a circle. Naruto quickly moved to block the claws slicing at him with the giant blade. The blade stopped the claws dead in their tracks trying to slice through the blade. Kanira swung his other clawed hand around to swipe at Naruto, who quickly reformed Kaosu Toge to block the incoming attack and channelling Futon chakra into the Nodachi the claws sailed right through the blade getting cut clean in two in the process.
"DAMN YOU" yelled Kanira looking down at his sliced claws, before jumping back and pouring chakra into his claws fixing them, once more the two transforming beasts clashed Naruto's two blades crashing into the six claws of Kanira the two held and kept pushing against each other. In a flash Naruto dissolved into bats and flew through and around Kanira.
"Well looks like we have about the same strength" said Naruto glaring at the man
"Seems so Bat Brain" said Kanira.
Naruto quickly pulled out a pair of kunai and pegged at the beastly man, who despite his size he moved quickly enough to avoid the kunai.
"Sucked in bitch brain" said Naruto making a half tiger hand sign then his two kunai exploded kicking up a large smoke and dust.
From the smoke burst forth a half burnt and covered in shrapnel with bloody murder written on his face.
"YOU LITTLE FUCKER" yelled the half burnt beast. Naruto smirked only to slogged in the face sending him flying back into the wall behind him. The impact was cushioned by the petals of his Nodachi. Once Naruto dropped to the ground and quickly flipped through the hand signs, after the chain was finished Naruto vanished.
"Hehehehehehehehehehehehehe" came the disembodied voice of Naruto from around the arena.
"You honestly think I can't smell you?" questioned Kanira looking around before sniffing and glaring at a section of the wall.
"Katon Hono Sutorīmu No Jutsu (Fire Release Blaze Stream Jutsu)" called Naruto breathing out a stream of fire from behind the werewolf straight into the beast's back burning the werewolf's fur or at least what remained of it.
The werewolf turned around and glared at the blond who was sticking to the wall with the chakra on his feet who was grinning at him smugly. However, Kanira was thrown up into the air from behind by another Naruto, wielding Kubikiribocho.
"Kuro Son Jutsu Chikyū Gokan Pāsu (Black Thron Art Earth Stem Pierce)" yelled Naruto, pointing his Doton chakra concentrated Nodachi at the airborne Kanira and a large javelin of earth pierced the falling werewolf through the heart killing the beast. Kanira, fell to the ground returning to his human form as he fell. Once he hit the ground, blood splattered from the open wound on the ground and flowed out.
"Winner Naruto Uzumaki" yelled the announcer. Naruto turned around and dropped to his knee, Gaia Shunshined down to the arena floor.
"Naru-kun you ok?" questioned Gaia, Naruto nodded breathing heavily.
"Just a little low on chakra" said Naruto taking a deep breath.
"Good luck Gaia-chan" said Naruto wobbly standing up but upright none the less before Shunshining out of the arena floor.
"Miss Nii please join us on the arena floor" said the announcer. Yugito stood up from next to Mabui and disappeared in a swirl of blue fire, before Yugito appeared in the arena floor opposite the now standing Gaia. The two female Jinchuriki faced each other.
"Are the combatant's ready?" asked the announcer, Gaia nodded.
"Yes" said Yugito.
"Alright begin" said the announcer.
Gaia's gourds cork shot out of the gourd at Yugito who ducked under it just as it got to her. The sand poured out and circled around her in a protective barrier.
"Well Gaia let's get this started" said Yugito elongating her fingernails like a claw and coating the end in blue fire, Gaia pulled out the Raijin hilt and channelled the chakra into the hilt firing up the blade the sand flowing around the lightning blade.
The two slowly circled each other ready to attack each other. The first one to move was Yugito in a very acrobatic fashion, Yugito lunged forwards at Gaia her claws clashing with the lighting blade turning the sand that was floating around it to glass. Gaia was surprized that her sand was turned into glass. Both of the girls jumped back from each other.
"That's some hot fire Yugito" said Gaia, the feline like Kunoichi smirked and charged once more.
"Raiton Borutosutomu (Lighting Release Bolt Strom)" said Gaia firing five bolts of lightning out of her hands towards Yugito who flipped acrobatically over the bolts landing in front of Gaia slashing at the suna Konoha Kunoichi leaving five slash marks across her chest, expecting blood Yugito was surprized when the wound fell apart into sand.
"Sabaku Kyu (Sand Coffin)" said Gaia hoping to encase Yugito in sand to trap but to her annoyance Yugito flipped backwards, too quickly for sand to capture.
"Nezumi Kedama (Mouse Hairball)" called Yugito spitting out five balls of hair that caught a blaze and morphed into the shape of mice. Gaia's sand blocked the hairballs, some of her sand turned into glass. Gaia rushed towards to the Kumo genin with her lightning blade in hand the kumo Kunoichi jumped back holding her claws out to defend from the blade. Yugito kept jumping back trying to avoid the blade of lighting, once Yugito hit the arena wall she dropped down letting Gaia slice the wall behind her. Yugito kicked Gaia in the knee knocking the Kunoichi down. Yugito jumped over the girl before quickly pinning the girl down.
"Concede now" ordered Yugito with her five flaming nails at Gaia's face.
"I concede" yelled Gaia.
"Gaia Uzumaki concedes Yugito Nii Wins" called the announcer. Gaia shunshined back to the stands with her head down, Yugito following closely after.
"You did great Gaia-chan" said Naruto pulling her into a hug.
"But I-I lost" said Gaia.
"You can't win everything Gaia and besides Yugito was a genin when I met her what six years ago?" questioned Naruto looking over to Yugito who nodded.
"Yeah I've been a ninja for ages Gaia don't beat yourself up" said Yugito.
"Would Haku Yuki and Sayuri Uchiha please head down to the arena now" called the announcer.
"Good luck you two" said Yugito.
"Do your best" said Naruto the remaining ninja just gave the two young Kunoichi a nod. Both shunshined down to the arena ready to begin their match.
"Both competitors ready?" questioned the announcer getting nods from both Kunoichi.
"Then begin" called the announcer.
The first thing that happened Haku and Sayuri both jumped back putting a large amount of distance between them Sayuri pulled out a pair of kunai ready to defend herself from incoming senbon which came flying at her.
Sayuri deflected the projectiles with her kunai however with all of her concentration on the senbon she lost track of Haku who was going through a set of one handed hand signs.
"Suiton Suiryūdan no Jutsu (Water Style Water Dragon Jutsu)" called Haku shaping water from the snow around them into a deadly dragon that flew at Sayuri who jumped out of the way of the beast once she landed she activated her Sharingan and then began going through her own hand signs.
"Katon Hosenka no Jutsu(Fire Style Phoenix Flower Jutsu)" called Sayuri spitting out several small balls of fire at Haku who with her superior speed jumped out of the way. The two charged forwards Sayuri went for an at the neck slice, Haku stopping it with her senbon which she then attempted to stab in the Sayuri who flipped back and pocketed her kunai pulling out her new scythe, Haku also jumped backwards.
"Damn it this is going nowhere I'm going to have to use it I just hope this doesn't bring back to many bad memories, Sorry Sayuri" said Haku to herself as she once more flipped through hand signs a set that Sayuri was familiar with and not in a good way.
"Makyo Hyosho (Demonic Mirroring Ice Crystals)" called Haku pouring her chakra into the snow around her making it easier to manipulate into her ice mirrors. The dome of mirrors formed around Sayuri who looked around and once Haku appeared in the mirrors her mind went blank for a second.
"Give up now I do not wish to kill you but if I have to I will" said the hunter nin from inside her mirrors.
"Never" declared Sayuri.
"Please don't hate me for this" declared Haku as she threw the senbon at Sayuri who was too tired to dodge them, Sayuri watched in fear as the world seemed to slow down and a figure appeared between her and the needles it was Naruto. The needles sunk into the blonde's skin and he fell to his knees.
"Naruto?" questioned Sayuri looking at her blond friend whom then fell backwards, Sayuri managing to catch him just before he hit the ground.
"NARUTO" screamed Sayuri her eyes suddenly began to hurt, she started to cry over her fallen friend.
"Naruto why did you do that?" questioned Sayuri as tear rolled down her face and her eyes hurt more and more.
"Is this the first time you've had a friend die in battle? This is the world we live in the world of Shinobi" declared Haku looking sadly down at the boy.
"Shut up" growled Sayuri her eyes burned but she said nothing.
"He was a good person to sacrifice himself like that for you" stated Haku.
"I said Shut up" declared Sayuri her head snapping up towards Haku revealing her eyes now had a new pattern to them her eyes now consisted of three red coloured black lined overlapping ovals her pupil in the middle.
A stray word entered Sayuri's mind and almost instinctively she uttered the word while channelling chakra to her left eye.
"Amaterasu" declared the Uchiha heiress glaring at the ice mirrors said mirror was engulfed in black flames.
Sayuri's mind came back to the present when a set of needles came flying at her, once more her eyes began to sting however just as they did her perception became that much clearer, she jumped out of the way of the needles, and then she saw it in the mirrors her eyes.
"Mangekyo…" muttered Sayuri.
