Yo!! Sorry about being gone for so long. Life, School, and Star Ocean: Till the End of Time decided to take a large chunk of my life. But to make matters worse, Finals are coming up, and that means studying. I'll try to update after finals, but I won't make any promises.
Chapter 25: Gatto vs. Kyuubi! Power of the Fifth Tails!!!
"Wh-what!?!? Where did a giant T.V Screen come from!?!?" Tsunade asked, and 2 people walked up to her. "Sorry for being late, but a friend from the Sun Village called me up." They turned and saw one other that the Raikage, and another man.
"Oh, Raikage-sama. What brings you here?" Tsunade asked. "Well, Koji Musashi called me saying that Satoshi was going to be in the greatest match ever witnessed by man, so I called up a friend of mine." Raikage said, pointing to his friend, whose face was covered by a white robe with a hood. Before Tsunade could question him, Kai jumped up and waved.
"Hey! Kazu-Sensei!! Your actually here!!" Kai screamed, and Tsunade, and Sakura's eyes widened. "Then…then your…" Tsunade started, and the man sighed. "Damn Kai. Could have at least given them time to guess." He said, tossing his white robes off, revealing a man in Kage Robes, except the main color as orange, and the side color was red.
"Yep! Say hello to the Shodaime Kajikage! Kazu Hyuuga at your service!" Kazu said, mock bowing. Kai sighed, and knocked him in the back of the head. "Your such a loser!" Kai screamed, and Kazu sulked, and then both of them began laughing. (I thought Kai was familiar! He was the same kid who could use the Byakugan, and was the Kajikage's apprentice.) Sakura thought to herself.
"Hey, it seems Satoshi and Naruto are about to do something." Kai said, pointing to the screen. "Wow, Katsuya and his team did a beautiful job setting this up!" Raikage said.
(Outsude the Village)
"You know Naruto, this is probably one of the only matches I really look forward to." Satoshi said. "I know. I mean it's one thing to fight a strong opponent, but a friend and rival who also holds a demon is the best kind of opponent!" Naruto replied.
"Yeah. Time to see who's stronger. Konoha's Kyuubi, or Heaven's Gatto!" Satoshi said, and they both got into a stance. "You ready for Round 1! We start with…" Satoshi started, and they both screamed at the same time, "CLONE JUTSUS!!!"
(Sand Arena)
"Kyuubi!? Naruto has Kyuubi in him!?!?" Kiba screamed, and wasn't the only one. Everyone who didn't know was stunned. (That explains why Naruto as shunned as a child…) Ino thought to herself, while they were also contemplating what Satoshi said.
(So, he's like Naruto. No wonder him and that dobe get along so well.) Sasuke thought to himself. (Well Naruto! Your youth is doubled along with the demon's power, now let us see what you and Satoshi can do!) Lee thought to himself.
(Battle Area)
Naruto began charging, while Satoshi stood there, his hands in his pockets. (So, your Sword and Shield Taijutsu eh? Well, two can play mastery of Shadow Clones!) Naruto thought to himself. Without making hand signs, 5 Naruto's appeared, and charged. (Hmm, he's mastered the Shadow Clone as well. This will be nice!) Satoshi thought to himself, standing with a neutral look on his face.
All five Naruto ran up, before they disappeared. He looked around, and then a Clone popped up behind him, blocking Naruto's punch. "Too slow." Satoshi said, and 2 more clones popped out, blocking two more punches. He then move his head to dodge a kunai that shot past his head. (What!? A three-pronged kunai?) Satoshi thought to himself, before an orange and yellow blur clothes lined the hell out of him. He spun on the ground, until he regained his footing, and caught another three pronged kunai, his head being rammed again by another lightning fast fist.
(Shit! He's moving faster than I can even with my Tarogan eyes tracking him!) Satoshi thought to himself, before he was surrounded by 5 Narutos, and he then noticed one running up, and straight up smashing it's fist into his jaw.
"U-" 4 more came from behind. "ZU-MA-KI-" Satoshi was launched into the air, where the first Naruto that clocked him was in the air, ready for an Axe-Kick from hell. "NARUTO BARRAGE!!!" Naruto screamed, ramming his foot into Satoshi's head, making him hit the ground hard. Satoshi bounced on the ground, before he was on his back.
"You lose!!" Naruto screamed, before 7 Satoshi's appeared before him, out of nowhere. " Not yet! Now it's my turn!" Satoshi 1 said, charging along with the others. When they were a foot away, they disappeared. Naruto turned around in time to see one of them stop in front of him, his back to him.
"Now, SA-TO-SHI-" The first one elbowed him, then another punched him in the gut, and the third one palm thrusted him. "MU-SA-SHI-" The fourth one ran his fist into his back as he was flying back, the fifth one tripped him, and the last one football kicked him into the air. The Clones then positioned themselves, and launched the first one into the air after Naruto.
"COMBO!!!" Satoshi screamed, and back flipped, and kicked Naruto. Naruto flew to the ground, and created a crater as big as Satoshi's. After the attack, all clones disappeared.
(Sand Arena)
"Alright! Satoshi's gotten better with the Shadow Clone Jutsu!" Kazu said, and Tsunade shrugged. "True he's good, but Naruto is better." Tsunade said, smirking at him. "Oh? You wanna bet on it?" Kazu asked, and Tsunade thought back to the Chuunin Exams in the Storm Village.
He had bet that Kai could beat Sakura, which he did after a while. "Okay, your on! What are the stakes?" Tsunade asked. "Free lodging at Konoha for the next month." Kazu said, and Kai sighed. "You cheapskate." Kai said, in which Kazu waved him off. "Got to do what you got to do. No one's going to hold it against me." He replied, and Kai sighed.
"And should I lose, than I'll give you all the money I have left." He said, stating the terms to the bet. The way Tsunade's eyes gleamed from the prospect of money, told that the bet was on. "Hey Sensei, the fun should be beginning again!" Kai said, seeing Naruto begin to stand. Jiraiya on the other hand was speechless.
(I don't know if I'm the only one who's noticed, but he just used the Fourth's Special Technique. So he actually gave him the tools to learn it, and Naruto learned it on his own.) Jiraiya thought to himself, amazed and proud of his pupil.
(Battle Area)
Naruto managed to stand up, but Satoshi was still on his back, his hair covering his face. Naruto thought he was out, before Satoshi began chuckling. "You know Naruto, this is the best I've ever felt during a fight. Okay, your Clones are just as good as mine. So now, how about we take it to the next level?" Satoshi said, getting up, and letting some more of his chakra out.
"Of course, let's take the kiddy gloves off!" Naruto said, calling on Kyuubi to give him some of his chakra. Satoshi was powering up. After a few seconds Naruto was leaking red chakra, and Satoshi was in Spark Form. "So, your ready?" Naruto asked. "Let Stage 2 Begin! Jutsus!!!" Satoshi said, charging at Naruto. They both were charging each other, Naruto up heaving the sand he was running on, Satoshi activating his Spark Claw on his right hand, and bringing it up like he was going to attack.
They both yelled battle cries, and cocked their fists back, and Naruto threw a punch, and Satoshi slashed at him. Both chakra powered attacks hit at the same time, and there was a big explosion. When the smoke cleared, Satoshi had Naruto's fist while Naruto had dodged Satoshi's Claws. They both smirked, and jumped away. Satoshi landed, and began going through seals for his trademark attack.
"Lightning Style: Lightning Gun Jutsu!" Satoshi said, shooting a beam from his finger. Naruto barely dodged the lightning fast beam, and made 5 Shadow Clones. They all charged, while Satoshi began shooting off Lightning Guns like rapid fire. The Clones managed to dodge all the beams, but Satoshi had one more trick up his sleeve.
"Lightning Style: Spark Raid Jutsu!!" Satoshi said, making the hand signs, and sending a flurry of electric balls at Naruto, who were all hit. But what surprised Satoshi was that they all poofed away. (Shit! Shadow Clones!!) Satoshi thought to himself, before he shot another Lightning Gun behind him, hitting Naruto, who poofed away again.
"Fuck!" Satoshi screamed out loud in frustration. He turned around, and caught a kunai, and sweat dropped when he saw the exploding tag attached, that blew up in his face. Naruto came out of the sandy ground, and cheered, but stopped when he couldn't move. "Ha. Meet my upgrade of Stun Fist: 1000 Volt Fist!" Satoshi said, his punch immobilizing Naruto, who turned into a log.
"&&!!!!!" Satoshi screamed in sheer frustration.
(Sand Arena)
Everyone gasped at the string of curse words the young Sun Nin released. Even Tyson was amazed that Satoshi swore like he did. "Tyson, get over here now!!!" Kazu screamed, and Tyson made his way over there. "You stay over there the whole time I arrive, and say nothing?" Kazu said, and Tyson smiled at him.
"Sorry, I was too into watching Satoshi's fight to know you were here!" Tyson said, hugging the Kajikage. "Now, where did Satoshi learn this kind of language?" Kazu asked, and Tyson smirked. "Not from me. If he was learning it from me, he would be cursing all the time!" Tyson said, and they both began laughing. "But seriously, clean your mouth out." Kazu said, and Tyson looked at him back.
"The day I clean my mouth is the day you clean out your desk." Tyson replied. They both looked at each other, and said 'Deal' at the same time. No one knew what Tyson was talking about, but Kai knew exactly what he was talking about, which explained why Tyson was refraining from calling him Kaji-Hentai.
(Battle Area)
Satoshi looked for Naruto, and looked up just in time to come face to face with his fist. He flew across the desert for a few feet, before he regained his footing, and caught a fist, his Tarogan finally activated.
"Now we really begin, Naruto." Satoshi said. "1000 VOLT FIST SPECIAL TECHNIQUE!!! ELECTRIC FISTS OF FURY!!!" Satoshi screamed, and began pounding electric chakra filled fists into Naruto, punching him like there was no tomorrow. After the 1000th or so punch, he palm thrusted him, and Naruto flew and hit the ground hard.
"Sorry Naruto, but you've been immobilized by my paralysis. It's not so easy to break either." Satoshi said, smirking. He was about to convince Naruto to quit, but he was actually getting up, and was smirking. "Wow Satoshi, your mastery of Lightning is amazing to create your own style of Taijutsu. But I'm not done yet!" Naruto said, and a burst of chakra broke the paralysis that Satoshi's attacks held on him. Satoshi was stunned.
"Damn Kyuubi. He's too strong for my attacks to contain him." Satoshi said, and Naruto smirked at him. "Of course. You expect someone like Gatto to stop me? He's the weaker demon here." Naruto said, and Satoshi smirked. "So, Kyuubi believes Gatto to be inferior eh? Well then, I guess we can skip to Round 3. Tails!!" Satoshi said, and Naruto hopped away.
"Good, Kyuubi's been looking for some fun." Naruto said, his chakra powering up. Satoshi smirked, and began charging more chakra. At the same time, they both released a tail.
(Sand Arena)
"Woah!! Naruto can make tails appear like Satoshi?" Kazu asked, and Kai sort of nodded. "Looks like it, but if we know both of them, they will make a show out of this." Kai said. "Heh, so true. That Satoshi is truly a performer." Kazu said, and Kai nodded.
By this time, both nin were on their third tails. And after a while, the fourth tail appeared, and their power was pretty intense. (Come on Gatto! We want to win right?) "Of course. Now, I think with the concentration we're showing, we can take out Naruto. Let's try for it!" Gatto said, and Satoshi smirked mentally. (Yeah, the fifth tail!) Satoshi thought to himself, his power still rising even though he had 4 tails out.
Naruto's thoughts were along the lines of Satoshi's. (Come on Kyuubi. Don't you want to show that rival who the demon on the block is?) Naruto said to Kyuubi. "Of course Kit, but the power for the fifth tail requires a large amount of concentration. You have to be in sync with me, Kit. Can you handle it?" Kyuubi asked mocking him. (Of course! Now, let's defeat Satoshi!) Naruto's power was also rising, but he wasn't out of control like Jiraiya and Tsunade thought he would be.
(Sand Arena)
"So, they plan on finishing this in a few. That's good, this fight is getting way to good to drag on. I want it to conclude!" Kazu said, and Kai glanced at him. "You just want to win your bet." Kai said. Then everyone froze, feeling a powerful pulse of chakra. It wasn't coming from anyone in the stadium, yet it felt like it was. They looked on the screen, and everyone gasped.
"They pulled out their fifth tails." Kazu said, and all the other fighters were getting nervous from the power being displayed. "So, little brother has now become this powerful. Careful, Old Man, he is almost as strong as you are." Koji said, showing his amusement. But there was one more thing that was interesting to everyone. Their clothes had changed.
(Battle Area)
When the dust cleared, Satoshi and Naruto had powers to match some Kages, their fifth tails, and their clothes changed. Naruto was now in an orange t-shirt, black pants, and a black trench coat, with 'Konoha's Crimson Fox' on the back in bright red kanji. He had 5 chakra tails protruding from his backside, and his hair has red streaks at the end.
Satoshi had on a white shirt, and white pants, similar to Jin's Battle Gi, (not the dark blue jumpsuit) except that it had dark blue stripes along the edges. On the back of his shirt, it read 'Sapphire Tiger of the Heavens' in kanji. Satoshi's bangs came undone again, but this time, he tied it back with his goggles, and smirked at Naruto. Before he did anything else, he released his Gravity Seals.
"Heh, looks like you unlocked the fifth tail as well. Then this will be an awesome match." Satoshi said, his voice having a hint of Gatto in it. "I could say the same against you. Your demon infused chakra is near mine, so this fight will be most spectacular." Naruto said, his voice a little demonic. Naruto's crimson eyes stared down Satoshi's orange Tarogan eyes, before 2000 Shadow Clones appeared behind each of them.
"Mass Shadow Clones." They both said at the same time. Satoshi's clones looked like him in Spark Form, and Naruto's clones looked like him before his clothes changed. "Now, let the Great Clone War begin!!!" Satoshi screamed, charging, his clones following. Naruto smirked, and they all began charging as well.
(Sand Arena)
"Seems little brother has found someone who matches him perfectly." Koji said. Kazu smiled, and Kai was surprised. "They both massed 2000 Clones without the need for hand signs. That's unreal." Kai said, stunned. But what happened next really stunned them.
Instead of attacking each other, they both, once they were right next to each other, attacked the opponent army. Naruto used a chakra filled black fire claw, like he used against Sasuke, and Satoshi extended his claws so that they shot out, and stabbed any clones in the vicinity.
(Damn, I only got half of them.) Satoshi thought to himself, while Naruto began brawling with the one's he didn't take out. Satoshi smirked, and disappeared. The Naruto's were confused, but then, they began being dispatched. The only clue was a blur of white and blue that was left after Satoshi attacked.
Naruto, on the other hand, was blowing clones away by punching, kicking, or straight up kicking their asses with blinding speed. After a few seconds, all the clones were dispersed, and Satoshi and Naruto were standing across from each other, both smirking. "So, it comes to this, eh? One on one!" Satoshi said, and Naruto smirked. "Of course. Killing 2000 Clones is perfect warm up, and now I have an idea about what I can do." Naruto said, and then they both cracked their knuckles.
Satoshi slid one foot forward, and extended his right arm, and brought his left hand back, both hands fisted. Naruto put his hands into the pockets on his trench coat, and got into a ready stance. Now be aware, they were about 75 yards away when they got into their stances.
(Sand Arena)
"Hmm. Satoshi is actually in a fighting stance." Koji said. "What do you mean?" Kai asked. "Satoshi has never been one for unnecessary stances. The thing closest to a stance he has is when he is using his fire. You know Koji, the one where he has his hands in his pockets." Kazu explained, and Koji nodded.
"Oh! I never knew Satoshi wasn't the kind of person to not use a particular stance." Kai said. "He says that if you use a stance, you can give away what kind of fighting style you prefer. But the style he has isn't really a style, so the stance he has doesn't give much away. In fact, he makes them believe that he is good with his hands, when it's his jutsus you should watch." Koji said.
"Huh?" Kai asked. "The stance he's in. What's the first thing that come to mind seeing that stance?" Koji asked. "That he uses his fists…wait. I get it now. He's using deception." Kai said, and Kazu ruffled his hair. "Now they really fight for real." Koji said.
(Battle Area)
Satoshi and Naruto stood in their stances, until Satoshi took off, his speed blinding. Naruto didn't do anything, but his tails shot into the ground. Satoshi skidded, and was then shot into the air, by the tails shooting out the ground. Naruto thought he could take him out in mid-air, but Satoshi summoned a giant blade, and used it to slide down the chakra tail.
Naruto used some more flame claws to swipe at Satoshi, but Satoshi summoned a spear and used it to knock away the chakra claw. He was still grinding down when Naruto shot another claw. Satoshi made a quick set of seals, and crouched to the blade. "Shadow Board Jutsu!" Satoshi said, making a snowboard-like blade out of the giant blade, and grinding down another chakra tail to dodge the attack.
"Summoning Jutsu!" Satoshi said, stabbing himself in the hand, and drawing blood. He aimed it, and summoned Caster Cat on the other chakra tail. The Wizard Cat appeared, along with another board. "Yo! You call?" Caster asked. "Give him elemental hell!" Satoshi said, pointing at Naruto. Caster nodded, and began chanting something in a foreign language.
"Summoning Jutsu!" Naruto screamed, stabbing himself as well, and summoned a orange toad, with a katana on it's back. The frog smirked, and unsheathed his blade, as Caster finished his spells. "Blaze!" Caster finished his chant, and shot a fireball, which the toad blocked easily. The frog charged at Caster, and Satoshi thought up a new plan.
"Summoning Jutsu!" Satoshi this time, summoned 3 small cats. "Spot, Slash, Shadow! It's time!" Satoshi said. Spot, a small leopard, jumped on his head. Slash, a tiger cub, jumped on his right shoulder, and Shadow, a black panther cub, jumped on his left shoulder. "Now, Musashi Trick Technique: Claws of the Wild Cats!!!" Satoshi said, and the cats all jumped off of him, and began spinning towards Naruto, like a drill.
(Reminds me of Kiba's Gatsuuga.) Naruto thought in his mind, a tail coming up to block the attack. The cats bounced off the chakra tail, and Naruto hit them with a flame claw, dispelling them. Satoshi then jumped off the board and was high in the air. "Shadow Clone Jutsu!" Satoshi said, and 20 Shadow Clones appeared in mid-air near him. They all then began making handsigns.
"Lightning Style: Lightning Gun Jutsu!" They all screamed, and began a rain of Lightning beams from their fingers. Naruto merely pulled up his tail, and used it as a shield, and when the raining stopped, he saw Satoshi be thrown forcefully by three clones, and put some knuckles on.
"Now, my newest weapon! Resonate: Sapphire Fists!!" Satoshi said, ramming the knuckles into each other. When he pulled them apart, claws shot out of them, and Satoshi continued his free fall. Naruto used a chakra tail and swung up, and both attacks hit each other, creating a giant explosion.
(Sand Arena)
Everyone was awed by the amazing power that was being shown by Satoshi and Naruto. "Satoshi summoned 2 summons?" Sakura asked. "Well, seems like those two are using their overpowered chakra wisely. Naruto's been playing defensively with his tails, and Satoshi's offense is nothing short of amazing." Kakashi said.
After they transformed, Kakashi and Koji had taken off their headbands to allow their eye powers to watch them better. "So Tsunade, you ready to lose that bet?" Kazu asked. "Naruto will win, I'll bank on it." Tsunade said. (Well, technically, you are banking on Naruto winning.) Kai thought to himself. "Well, I guess Satoshi and Naruto are truly the one's to beat." Scar said to himself, and Tyson nodded.
"But, there's one more demon container we don't know about." Tyson said, pointing at Gaara. Kai was paying attention to the match, but he noticed that Sakura was fiddling with her gloves. They looked worn, like they had been used for ages. In the back of his mind, he kept that as a mental note.
(Battle Area)
When the dust cleared, Satoshi's claws were still active and powerful, and Naruto was playing with one of his tails. And then, he grabbed one, and a katana came out. The blade was orange and shaped like a fox, the hilt looked like Kyuubi's tails, and the handle was yellow. "So, you got a weapon that can match my Sapphire Fists?" Satoshi asked.
"No, this weapon is stronger than your sissy knuckles. Say hello to Blazing Kitsune!" Naruto said, swinging his blade, and pointing it at Satoshi. Satoshi smirked, and charged at Naruto. Once he was within range, he swung, and Naruto parried. They were attacking and blocking at lightning speeds.
"Their speeds are amazing." Tyson said. "They are faster than anyone I've ever seen." Scar said. Everyone was surprised and stunned yet again. They were moving so fast, when their weapons hit, the flash was barely there, and anyone without Sharingan or Tarogan couldn't catch anything that was happening. After some minutes they both slid from each other, and was panting. Satoshi had some minor scratches, and Naruto had what looked like a bump on his head.
But both nins healed quickly. Satoshi then charged his chakra, and gathered some more blood. Naruto, catching onto what he was doing, did the same thing. "SUMMONING JUTSU!!" Satoshi screamed. "TRUE SUMMONING JUTSU!!" Naruto screamed, and they both pressed their hands into the ground, and a blast of smoke shot out.
The smoke once again screened out what was happening, but from the power they felt, they could tell that whatever was happening, it was strong. The battlers came back into view, and all the people from Konoha were stunned, and scared shitless.
Tyson, Kai, and Scar were confused about the reactions of the Konoha people, but they saw the exact same look of fear on the Raikage's, and the Cloud 3's faces. Koji smiled, and chuckled. "Oh right, Raikage-sama never knew that Satoshi learned how to summon his special friend." Koji said, chuckling.
(Naruto summoned him!?!?) Jiraiya thought to himself. Even the Sun Nin were amazed at the appearance of Naruto's summon. (So, that's the fox that Gatto is always talking about eh? Well, he definitely is strong.) Kazu thought to himself.
When the dust cleared, two giant animals were standing tall, their tails swinging everywhere. One was white, and had blue stripes along his tails and body. The other was dark orange, and looked pretty vicious. "Kyuubi!" Satoshi said, sitting on his giant cat. "Gatto!" Naruto screamed, and both beasts smirked at each other.
"So, you ready Gatto?" Kyuubi asked. "I thought you would never ask!" Gatto said, jumping into the sky. Both nin took hold of their demon's heads, and prepared for the fight of their lives.
Gatto spun in mid-air, and brought his tails down upon Kyuubi, who was hit pretty hard, but he managed to shake it off, and sent a beam of fire, hitting Gatto, and sending him sliding along the ground. Satoshi fell off of Gatto, and preceded to begin his plan. He created a Shadow Clone, and used it to keep himself air born. When he began to descend again, he created another Clone and used it.
He looked over and saw Gatto shoot a lightning beam at Kyuubi, but the demon dodged it, giving Satoshi the distraction he needed to shoot a Lightning Gun at Kyuubi, succeeding in tickling him off a little. Kyuubi brought a tail around and struck Satoshi, sending him sliding across the ground. He was about to be hit again, before he was pushed to the side.
After sliding for a few feet, he jumped and landed on his feet, next to Gatto in human form. "Oh Gatto! You're in human form?" Satoshi asked. "Yeah. I can beat him more effectively if I can move and use some of the jutsus I've learned over the years." Gatto said, and they both took a stance as Kyuubi towered over them.
(Battle Area)
"Hmm. I didn't know that Gatto has a human form." Koji said. "I figured him and Kyuubi would. How else would they traverse the world without causing trouble. It just seems that Gatto fights better in his human form." Kazu said. "So him and Satoshi are going to join attacks?" Kai asked. "Of course. This will be a great match!" Koji said.
(Battle Area)
Satoshi and Gatto moved the moment Kyuubi tried to stomp on them, and Gatto began to go through a set of seals at a fast rate. "Lightning Style: Lightning Dragon Jutsu!" Gatto said, and he released a dragon of electricity, hitting Kyuubi hard in the side. Kyuubi slid a little, but he wasn't affected, and tried to bite at them. He got them, but he couldn't chomp down on them.
"Sorry Kyuubi, but my Thunder Dome won't let you eat us!" Satoshi said, and Gatto smirked. "Raging Spark Magnum!" Gatto said, and a blast of electric energy shot out of his mouth, flying into Kyuubi's mouth, and exploding in electrical energy. Kyuubi howled in pain, and Satoshi and Gatto took off running in the same direction, under Kyuubi.
"Now, blast his ass!" Gatto said, and they both began making hand signs. "Lightning Style: Lightning Gun Jutsu!" "Demon Art: Fang of the Demon Cat!" And with that, a beam of lightning and a electric cat head hit Kyuubi in his gut, making him float on the off ground a little. They both then began running as Kyuubi hit the ground, and Gatto was hit by a chakra claw from Naruto.
"Damn Naruto! Gatto, distract them, and I'll get Naruto!" Satoshi said, grabbing onto one of Kyuubi's tails without him knowing it.
Satoshi managed to get on Kyuubi's back while Naruto and Kyuubi were distracted by Gatto shooting electricity at them. Satoshi got onto his back, and smirked at the unknowing duo. "Lightning Style: Spark Overload Jutsu!" Satoshi said, as electric chakra began charging in his body. When he grasped a hold of Kyuubi's back, he unleashed all that pent up electric chakra, and sent tons of volts coursing through Kyuubi and Naruto.
Both foxes felt the intense blast of electric chakra, and turned their attention to Satoshi. Kyuubi then summoned a small army of foxes, causing Satoshi to have a O.O look. (He can summon!?!?) Satoshi thought to himself, jumping to avoid the 4 foxes that had charged him.
(Now, hope your in position Gatto!) Satoshi thought to himself, pulling out a triangle card. Gatto saw this, and smirked. "So it comes to this, eh?" Gatto asked. Satoshi threw the card, and Gatto prepared to shoot a lightning beam. "Fools! Don't think I'll let you do your attack!" Kyuubi said, shooting a giant ball of fire energy at Gatto, who was hit head on. Before Gatto poofed away from the force of the attack, he shot another cat shaped blast at the card.
The moment the blast hit the card, there was a giant nuke like explosion, engulfing both demon kids, and blasting Kyuubi across the plains, dispelling him. When the dust cleared, Naruto and Satoshi were standing, Satoshi smirking at Naruto.
"Okay Naruto. I'm going to finish this on one move!" Satoshi said, smirking. They were about a football field away from each other. "I agree. Let's put everything we have into this last attack." Naruto said, a sphere of green chakra forming in his hand. Satoshi charged fire chakra into his hand, and his right hand began blazing even more.
(Battle Area)
"Naruto's charging the Rasengan!" Jiraiya said. "And Satoshi is preparing the Fire Laser!" Kazu said. "Satoshi has an advantage because the Rasengan is a close up attack, while the Fire Laser is a distance attack." Kai said. "But then again, Naruto is the Number 1 Surprising Ninja. He won't go down so easily." Tsunade said.
(Battle Area)
The Rasengan was spinning ferociously, and Satoshi's Fire Laser was almost ready, the fireball in his hand blazing. Naruto then smirked, and after adding a layer of demonic chakra, he began hitting the Rasengan, making it spin sideways.
Satoshi saw this, and couldn't figure out what Naruto was going to do. Satoshi created another fireball with demonic chakra in his left hand, and added to the one on his right hand. After a while, Naruto's Rasengan was spinning sideways at a extremely fast rate, creating a mini tornado under it.
Naruto let the Rasengan go, and it was floating on it's on, creating a tornado that surrounded Naruto. "Now! OMNI RASENGAN!!!" Naruto screamed, kicking the Rasengan, and it was leveling the sand under it. Satoshi brought his hand back, and pointed a finger. "Now! IMPERIAL FLAME LASER!!!" Satoshi screamed, a beam of fire shooting from his fingertips with a stream of fire following it.
The Rasengan hit the Flame Laser, and they created a shockwave of power. Satoshi and Naruto held the attacks on with everything they had. "Come on Mew!! Kyuubi can't show us up!" Gatto screamed, and Satoshi put more chakra into the attack, leaving everything he had. "Kit! This boy is going to win at this rate! Let's show him who's the king around here!" Kyuubi said, and Naruto smirked, putting everything he had into his attack.
The attacks stayed at a stalemate for a few more minutes, before it merged into a white ball, and exploded, sending a pulse of wind at Satoshi, and a flurry of fireballs at Naruto. Satoshi was hit by the pulse in the gut, and sent flying. Naruto received the fireballs by holding his hand up to cover his face, but he was still hit hard, and sent packing. They both slid on the ground at the same time, and stopped, on their backs. Satoshi's hair was covering his eyes again, and Naruto was out like a light.
Everyone was shocked silent. Especially Jiraiya and Koji. The Rasengan that Naruto used was way stronger that the one he could ever use, including Arashi's. That Flame Laser was stronger than the one he could use himself, since that was his fire form's strongest attack.
(Heh, he really is Minato's child.) Jiraiya thought to himself. (He really is the genius of fire.) Koji thought to himself, smiling at his brother. "Seems like they both may be called…!?" Scar said smirking, before Gaara pointed to the screen, stunning him, and everyone else.
(Battle Area)
After a few seconds of being on the ground, they were both struggling to their feet. Their power was so miniscule that they had reverted back to their regular forms. Satoshi couldn't feel Gatto's thoughts, which meant that he was pretty much down to his last 1 percent or less of chakra.
Naruto felt that Kyuubi had fallen asleep, exhausted from the output of chakra. They both staggered to their feet, and nearly faltered, but held their grounds. Both were panting hard, and their eyes were glazed over. They both stared at each other, before both of them fell to the ground. Naruto hit the ground, unconscious, but a Shadow Clone caught Satoshi before he could hit the ground, keeping him on his feet.
"Guess…we…won…" Satoshi said, before he too passed out. Koji and Kakashi appeared next to them, Kakashi picking Naruto up, and Koji lifting Satoshi. They both then appeared in the arena, and medic-nins appeared to take care of them. "I guess that means that Satoshi Musashi is the winner!" Baki said, and everyone cheered loudly for the two nin.
Both were conscious enough to hear the cheers, and both smiled genuinely. (Looks like I finally am getting the recognition of my village. Took them long enough.) Naruto thought to himself. (Alright. I've made it to the finals. Tyson you better get there with me. But for now, I think I'll take a nap.) Satoshi thought to himself, falling back asleep. Koji and Kakashi smirked, and turned to head back to the stands.
"You're brother is stronger than any nin I've ever met. If we were to fight to win, I can't say I would win." Kakashi said. "I agree. I can't either of them lightly in a fight to win."
As Satoshi and Naruto were being carried to the waiting room to be healed, Satoshi felt pain shoot through his body. (What the hell?) Satoshi thought to himself, and realized where it was coming from. His Curse Mark had broken from the seal, and it was affecting his body.
(Damnit! My chakra is so low, I can't keep the Curse Mark suppressed.) Satoshi thought to himself. He knew that Orochimaru was planning something, but until he knew, he couldn't react until he knew for sure. (This going to be big. Gatto, you need to heal me as much as possible before the next round is over!) Satoshi told Gatto. "Give me a minute to charge my chakra Mew. I sense something bad as well!" Gatto said.
Even the wise demon knew that without his original body, he was powerless against the Snake Sannin who took his and his container's loved ones. Sure he wasn't of any relation, and Satoshi was his only link to the living, but he had a fatherly (or grandfatherly) bond with his container. So anything done to him felt personal to the Cat Demon. He would do everything in his power to make Satoshi see his goal. Even if it meant sacrificing his own life.
Baki called for the next fight, and Gaara used Sand Teleport to appear in the arena. Scar jumped the gate and landed in the arena, now noticing that Tyson decided to walk there. (So, Satoshi is this strong? I want to stand a chance against him, but with that power, he can beat me, even with my seals.) Tyson thought to himself somberly.
(But I can't give up. My friends wouldn't believe me. I'm the hotheaded brawler, and the one who would initiate a fight. I must stand tall and face this challenge! Because…) Tyson thought to himself, as he approached the door leading to the arena.
(I'm Tyson Kusanagi: The Flame Brawler of the Village Hidden in the Heavens! If I back down, then I'm not living the way I can feel good about. I refuse to back down from a fight, and Satoshi just issued me an incentive to face him!) When he entered the arena, Kazu and Koji could see something in his eyes that wasn't usually there. It wasn't his usual gleam of cockiness or mischievous gleam.
It was a look of sheer determination.
Determination that he was ready to face a superior foe. Scar, Gaara, and especially Naruto and Satoshi. He wants to face them, to prove his determination, and to prove to himself that he can fight them on their plane of power.
ShadowRonin: Personally, I liked that chapter a lot. Realistically, I wanted them to tie, but that wouldn't flow, so I flipped a coin. It happened that Satoshi won the coin toss, so I used the Satoshi Wins part of the two parts I made. Well, keep in touch.
Next Chapter: Tyson takes on Gaara and Scar in a Three Man Every Nin for Himself Brawl. Scar isn't going to just lie down and die, and Gaara is the Kazekage of the Village Hidden in the Sand. Can Tyson pull ahead of these two foes and win? Find out on:
