Hey folks, New Year which means semester reopening and more troubles to deal with. Yay. I got to say the previous chapter on Momoyo's part and Kohaku's backstory was sloppy, because I wanted to focus on pushing the story further instead of focusing on history.

Got a new chapter and Jurassic Park reference will obvious.

Constructive criticism welcomed.

Thor94: I am not making Naruto mastering all kinds of shinobi arts, maybe a little bit more in genjustu and fuinjutsu but not too much. I am not going to overpower him. The story won't work if he's too powerful. The story is not going to centre on Naruto becoming powerful, it's going to be about like him and his friends learning from each other.

Uqoxe24: We can't have Tonton getting snatched away can we :)

Please fav, follow and review

Enjoy

Chapter 25: Uchiha Sasuke

Everyone went into the main building. "This way." Choten led to them a door at the right side of the building. Passing through the door, they went down a set of stairs. They could hear indistinct sounds of chittering. "What is that noise?" Shizune asked as they continued down the stairs. "Others that are here for this meeting." Choten replied as they reached another door.

Opening the door, they saw a grey room with lights on the ceiling, small windows around the top of the walls to show the herbivore fields. A table was in the middle of the room with several books, scrolls, and Naruto's trophies. The Megalodon and Sarcosuchus tooth. At the side of the table was the Sauropod vertebrae.

On top of that, Kichirou, Satomi the troodon and Shinku the raptor were in the room too, conversing.

"Kichirou I'm telling you I smell pork. There's pork around. I feel like bacon tonight now." Satomi jumped onto the table said, licking her teeth. Kichirou was leaning on Shinku. The crimson feathered raptor started making a purr and a chuffing growl.

"We already had dinner, no need to stuff yourself. And we have to be on this, so stay here." Kichirou said to Satomi.

"Kichirou." Choten said to his son. They greeted him back. "Who are these two? I've seen the yellow one before, but not the red one." Tsunade stepping in asked.

"Yellow one is Satomi. And the red one is Shinku." Choten said.

"Shinku?" Kurenai asked herself.

"Alright now that we are all here, we should start." Tsunade said, and everyone gathered around the table. "So Naruto said that there was an attack involving crocodiles. And this was not the first kind of attack that has happened around the Land of Fire."

"Yes." Choten took the crocodile tooth. "And from what I can tell, this crocodile is not supposed to be in any ecosystem of today, this includes the predators Naruto and Kohaku has spoken off in the mission in the Land of Waves."

Shinku let out a caw, and more chuffing growl and purring. Kichirou made the translation for those who did not understand. "Shinku said that when he and Kohaku were at the coast, ships were destroyed by sea predators, creatures that none of us has ever seen before."

"Yes, one of them." Choten added holding the shark tooth. "From my knowledge, is a Megalodon, a shark. A massive shark that is supposed to be extinct long ago." With this knowledge, eyebrows were raised.

"Is there any other attacks like this?" Kurenai asked. "One more." Yugao answered. "Remember when Kohaku got hospitalized?" She asked.

"Yeah? We thought it was either Orochimaru attacked him or something." Kurenai answered.

"It was something else." Kohaku said. "I went back to investigate the site of the attack. It was something big. Massive footprints metres apart, trees toppled over. And then the trail just stopped."

"It was also summoned." Naruto added.

"A summon? Which means someone is involved." Jiraiya added.

"What animal are we dealing with here?" Tsunade turned to Choten. "I'm not really sure. However…" Looking at the sauropod backbone. "I may have some idea. But I cannot really be sure with such limited resources of information we have here."

"And where do you think you could get more Intel?" Tsunade asked.

"Back where we were. Kirigakure. But that is absolutely out of the question." Choten answered.

"Kohaku took pictures. But then Danzo had to ruin it, not sure where those pieces of information are now." Satomi crouching on the table said.

Meanwhile, Kurenai was looking at Shinku the crimson feathered raptor from head to tail, leading to Shinku to stare at her with a purring growl. "Whoa, why is that dinosaur staring at me like that?" Kurenai asked stepping back a bit.

"Because you are staring at him." Naruto standing beside her said. "Shinku's a raptor. When you stare at a raptor, they just stare at you right back."

"Oh." Kurenai looked away. "I just thought it's quite interesting. Shinku's my father's name too."

"Oh really? Wow, that's cool." Naruto bumped her on the elbow. And when Kurenai turned her head, she was up close face to face to Shinku. With a gasp, Kurenai froze with wide eyes. Everyone just stopped.

"Whoa where did he come from?!" Naruto stepped back. "Naruto what do I do?" Kurenai whispered staring face to face with the crimson raptor. "He's not going to attack with all of us around. I don't know, just let him do whatever he wants now." Naruto said.

Shinku staring straight at Kurenai starting purring. She felt his breath on her face as he snorted, Leaning forward, he started chittering. He started nudging his snout on her forehead. Sniffing, Shinku continued to nudge his snout around Kurenai's face. Pulling his snout away from Kurenai's, the raptor let out a snarling screech.

"Shinku." Choten firmly said. The raptor looked at the Kaseki head, and backed away from Kurenai. She let go of the breath he was holding. "What in the hell was that?" She quietly asked.

"He won't say. Maybe he sees something in you, or maybe he likes you." Satomi said. "Back to the case of Danzo." Tsunade said to everyone, bringing the topic back.

"Right." Satomi said, jumping off the table and landing in front of the Fifth Hokage. "He's got to pay for this, and also the case with the Sharingan."

"We just received the news from the pursuing ANBU, they lost Danzo's trail." Tsunade said. Yugao clenched her fist. "Dammit."

"The captured Foundation ANBU were of no help. Even if they did decide to talk, the seal on their mouths forces them into paralysis." Jiraiya leaning on the wall said.

"Danzo really want his secrets kept." Shizune said.

"We still got the Foundation ANBU base to take care of." Kohaku pointed out. "Hold on, what about any more attacks that could happen?" Naruto asked. "Who knows if that big something comes back?"

"I can ask the toads. See if they know anything about whatever animal we're referring to. I'll also have to find a way to remove the seal on the Foundation ANBU." Jiraiya said.

"Wait. Are you guys forgetting something?" Satomi leapt back onto the table. "Danzo has a Sharingan. We cannot just ignore that. Where the hell did he get one huh?"

Naruto started to wonder. "You think he has something to do with the Uchiha massacre don't you?" He asked Satomi. "A sick bastard like him, maybe. I don't know." The troodon answered.

"Uchiha Itachi was the one responsible for the slaughter of the Uchiha." Yugao reminded them.

"Yeah but something does not add up. I saw Danzo through Kohaku's eyes, his methods are nasty. And when he used his Sharingan to kidnap Kohaku, he made accusations of the Kaseki Clan about turning on the Leaf, and he said that he will not allow history to repeat itself."

"What's that supposed to mean?" Shizune asked.

"Exactly, what do you think he meant by that? History repeat itself, if he meant a clan turning against the Leaf it could potentially mean only one clan, seeing as how there hasn't been a rebellion from other clans." Satomi made her deductions.

Tsunade, Jiraiya, Shizune and Kurenai were in awe. Seeing a Troodon, a dinosaur showing such intelligence. Shinku made a purring growl at Satomi.

"Shinku, I'm not making wild assumptions ok? I'm trying put pieces together based on what we know. Also Danzo's eye swirled my head when he used his Sharingan on Kohaku, more dirt on him the better." Satomi replied to the raptor.

"We don't know for sure Satomi, Danzo could have gotten that Sharingan long ago." Yugao said. Kurenai then said. "We'll know for sure when information is gathered from the Foundation base, or if we can capture Danzo."

"Then now what do we do?" Naruto asked.

Tsunade then made the decision. "Alright. Kohaku and Jiraiya are going to investigate the Foundation ANBU base tomorrow morning, and you should take Satomi with you as well, also Jiraiya you have to follow Danzo's movements with your spy network. Yugao, you should take some ample rest. After that, you and your ANBU team are going scan around our borders, search for any sign of infiltration around the village or the presence of any anomaly of the predatory kind. Kurenai, Naruto. You two carry on as you were."

Everyone agreed, except Naruto.

"Come on Baa-Chan. There's got to be something I can do." Naruto said.

Tsunade thought about it for a moment. "Actually Naruto, you need to report to the Hokage Tower tomorrow morning." She said and he nodded.

"Alright have we covered everything? Because I really want to get some sake right now." Tsunade stretched her arms over her head.

"Actually there is one more thing." Kohaku stepped in.

"What is it?"

"The issue of a power vacuum."

No one was really expecting this. Shinku made another chuffing growl. "Right after Gato got killed." Kohaku said.

"What power vacuum? What do you mean?" Shizune asked. "I overheard a mob boss talking about it when Kurenai, Anko and Tsume were hunting us. This guy was an Iwa Chunin before turning into a mob boss."

"Sounds like a guy me and Naruto ran into." Jiraiya said.

"Go on." Tsunade said to Kohaku. "What does Gato gone have to do with whatever is going now?" Naruto asked.

Kichirou then answered. "With Gato gone, there is a power vacuum, every crime boss wants to be up top with the vacant spot. Leading to conflicts within gangs."

Yugao then asked, "How do you guys know these things?" Kurenai also asked. "And why this involve us? Should let the Daimyo handle this, although I doubt he knows what to do."

"My sister and my aunt runs a jewellery shop. The mob sees stones as a worthy income. That's why we stay informed in these sort of things. We need to know who is buying real gems and who is ripping people off, us included." Kichirou answered.

"And now everyone wants the whole pie for themselves. Gangs wars may start." Kohaku said. "How is that our problem? It's not really Konoha's concern is it?" Kurenai asked.

"Kurenai-sensei, people are going to get caught in the crossfire. And Gato might happen again." Naruto said to her, concerned.

"Right, right. And then our external trade will get in trouble." Tsunade said. "But do you know where to start?" Looking at Kichirou and Kohaku.

"Well, we can start by their means of earning." Kohaku suggested. "And how will that help?" Yugao asked.

"See the thing you guys need to understand is what most mobsters do on a day to day basis to earn is mundane." Kichirou answered. "Like counterfeit cigarettes. Make them cheap and quick, and sell them on regular price. Bigger profit and the legitimate company gets affected."

"How's that going to help? We don't really know anyone with counterfeit cigarettes to ask now do we?" Shizune asked.

"Hell yeah we do. And he's right here in this village." Kohaku said, he leaned against Shinku with an arm on the raptor's back.

"Who?" Everyone asked.

"Sarutobi Asuma. All of his cigarettes are counterfeits, it's as clear as day."

Kurenai's jaw dropped. "That can't be. Is- Is he aware that they are counterfeits?"

"Oh yeah he does, he just doesn't care. He figured it was no big deal." Kohaku answered.

Kurenai looked down. "How do you know this?" Kichirou then answered. "He didn't know before I got a good look at it and told him. He was pretty casual about it after I told him. He thought it was not a problem to anyone then, but guess it is now."

"Well we will leave that aside for now. We already got a lot on our plate." Tsunade said. The meeting was over. Kichirou went ahead to bring Shinku and Satomi back their homes, and Choten went with Tsunade, Jiraiya, and Shizune to see them off at the Kaseki arch.

"Kohaku." Naruto said to the Kaseki. "Yeah?" Kohaku asked.

"There is another thing. When me and Kurenai-sensei were fighting. I was using the Spino Arms and I was in the river underwater, then something strange happened. It's like I could sense movement in the water, that's how I knew that crocodile was coming." Naruto said. "Do you know anything about that?"

"Oh yeah. There is something else when you do that Jutsu." Kohaku went to the table, picking up a small dinosaur handbook. "The thing about Spinosaurus, is that his home is also in the water. You know how to fight like one." He handed the book to Naruto. "Now, you need to know how to navigate like one."

"I'll read it. Thanks man." Naruto held the book, inspecting it. While browsing through the pages, he did not notice Kohaku slipping something in his back pouch.

"Kurenai I told you, I'm fine." They heard Yugao's voice. "Please stop asking me about Hayate." They turned to see the two women talking to each other.

"Sorry I was just concerned." Kurenai said in her defence. "Yeah, yeah I'm fine. We had a long day already. I just want to get some shut eye." Yugao sighed. "I'll take my leave guys. See you."

Everyone had parted. Everyone was exhausted for the most part. Yugao and Kurenai went home to rest. Kohaku left the main building, heading to his house. Holding the amber necklace in his hands, he entered the door. Taking his sandals off, he stepped into the kitchen. Lights were on, and sitting at the table, was Kaseki Hiroko.

"Kohaku. Please sit." Hiroko said with concern. "We need to talk."

Instead of walking back home, Naruto was at the carnivore section alone. He made it to the raptor pen, entering inside the vegetation scattered around the pen. Shinku, Midori and Yasei were at the other end of the pen, lying down and resting. Making a small wave at them, he heard sniffing at both of his sides. Gorudo and Hyoga were standing at both of his side.

"Hey guys. Miss me?" Naruto rubbed their chins. Kemuri and Raimu soon appeared and Naruto rubbed their chins too, they all surrounded him. The full moon shining bright, it was good to see the raptors again. He went the gate, sat down and leaned back. Taking the dinosaur handbook, he searched for the dinosaur he was looking for. The handbook was like dossier written by Choten and Tamiko. The four raptors soon gathered around him, sitting down to rest.

Flipping through the pages, he saw pictures of Kuin, Yasei, Jinsoku, Hikoki, Nashi and the other species. And at last he found the page, Tenno the Spinosaurus.

Naruto started reading the page out loud. "Ok here we go. Spinosaurus, largest carnivorous dinosaur known so far. Tenno is bigger than Kuin? Whoa. Spinosaurus specialize in Suiton and defence combat, with the aid of longer than average arms. Also they are experts in water environment combat. They can navigate in the water effortlessly due to one feature found in the edge of the snout. Highly sensitive pressure sensors. This allows the Spinosaurus to detect movements and motion in the water and the water surface. This also helps them to navigate in the water with low visibility."

Naruto closed the book, putting it back in his back pouch. With a sigh he rested his against the metal bars, he took off his forehead protector to get more comfortable. Gorudo moved in closer, lying down next to Naruto. He placed a hand on Gorudo's head, his hand moving through the feathers. Gorudo lifted his head, facing Naruto. The raptor made a snorting chuff, then a purring growl. Listening to the sounds the raptors make, Naruto tried to imitate it.

Naruto tried to make a purring growl at the back of his throat. He breathed out, making a chuffing snort through his nose. Gorudo followed, making the same noises.

In truth, Naruto had no idea what he was saying, just that it was cool to make those raptor noises.

"Man, hell of a day." Naruto groaned looking up into the starry night sky. "Danzo, the meeting. What a day." Naruto then thought back on Kohaku's past. "Hey Gorudo." He quietly said to the golden feathered raptor.

"Did you know about Kaseki Momoyo? Arakawa Takashi? Did Kohaku tell you?" Gorudo nodded his head. "Jeez, I don't know what's worse. Living alone or living with a parent hating you. I wonder, if my parents were alive, will they be mean to me? Dammit this is so crazy. And I'm talking to a raptor." Naruto shook his head, thinking about his parents would not do anything, and they're gone either way.

Another thought ran through Naruto's mind. "Back in the hospital. Dammit, Sakura-chan. Ugh she didn't ask me if I was ok or anything like that, just hugged Sasuke soon as he got up." Naruto sadly said, Gorudo was making a soft growl hearing her name. "Man, is this how Kohaku felt when Yugao and Hayate were together?" Naruto continued to stroke Gorudo's feathers on his head.

"Bah, it's all about Sasuke-teme. Please, I fought a giant shark and crocodile. I fought the Ichibi. I beat Kiba, Neji and Temari. I fought Kabuto and Orochimaru. I did one S-rank mission. I can do Rasengan. Sakura-chan can't see how great I am. Who needs her huh? Right?" Naruto paused. "Right?" This time there was hesitation in saying that. "Man I don't know."

"But Sasuke is an Uchiha, the elite. He has the Sharingan, he can do Katon and the Chidori. He is the top rookie. Everyone worships him, respects him right? Me? I want to be Hokage, but now everyone probably thinks I'm some dirt bag criminal. It's like I'm back to square one, no worse than that. Dammit that turd Danzo. All of my efforts wasted." He sadly said. A small tear threatened to roll down.

"What am I supposed to do? I don't know anymore." Naruto rubbed his face. He thought about his official two teammates. Only Sasuke must make the call, and Sakura follows him, and Naruto has to just listen and obey. Their way or get out.

"Always Sasuke, it's all about that teme to Sakura. All she does is make fun of me and hit me. Bet she wouldn't lift a finger if it's Sasuke. Why did I like her anyway? She's mean to me." A part of him thought about an irony as he continued to sit next to Gorudo, rubbing the raptor's neck.

Girls his age were mean to him, well most of them. And yet he can get along with woman older than him, being friends with Kurenai and Yugao shows. His train of thoughts were interrupted when he felt a budge in his back pouch.

Confused he pulled out the item. It was a light blue scroll. With the bright moon light, he read the contents of the scroll.

"Suiton: Suidan No Jutsu

Tiger, Ox, Tiger, Rat

Knead chakra in stomach and then expel, or expel through water source."

His eyes widened, he knew who gave this to me.

Naruto managed to slip back home before it got too late at night. Early morning came and he was at the Hokage tower. He was standing in front of the Hokage desk, trying to hold in his excitement.

"I wanted to give this to you before the selected candidates. Well, the original plan was no one was to be selected because the exams was interrupted. But those who have seen your matches were impressed, and you came out victorious on both of them. In addition to the fact that you held your own against a Sannin, and completing an S-rank mission. I'd say you earned it Naruto. Congratulations." Tsunade said with a smile, looking at the blonde in front of her.

Naruto was wearing usual his blue sandals, orange pants and his black t-shirt. But instead of wearing his usual orange jacket which were in his hand, he was wearing a Chunin vest.

"Thank you so much Baa-chan." Naruto went to give her a hug before she could protest. Tsunade had to admit it, his spirit was contagious.

"Don't mind me saying this. But the orange pants does not really match with the vest." Tsunade pointed out. "Well I like the colour." Naruto said.

"Even so, you should get something else now. You're going to be growing out of those clothes sooner or later right?"

"I will. Thanks again."

"Right. Ok, go on, get out of here kid. I got work to do. You should check on your team." Tsunade said to him casually, and by work she meant drinking and lazing about.

Naruto left the office, in his new chunin vest. "Well I guess it's not all bad. Chunin, one step closer to Hokage." Walking down the corridor he saw a Jounin he was not expecting.

"Hey Kurenai-sensei." He waved at her. "Check it, I'm a Chunin now."

"Well done Naruto. I don't think you should be calling me sensei now. Maybe Kurenai-senpai or Kurenai-san" Kurenai smiled. "So what are you doing here?" He asked her.

"Getting my mission for Team 8."

"How's Yugao-san?"

"She's alright. She's off scouting around the village with her team in ANBU. How do you know her anyway? You too seem quite close."

"Mutual friend. Kaseki Kohaku."

Kurenai raised an eyebrow. "I see."

Naruto then asked. "Hey um, when can I learn genjutsu from you?"

Kurenai then said. "If we can find time. With the village's state, things are getting hectic."

"Oh ok. Hey did Shinku give you a fright last night?" Naruto smirked. Kurenai scoffed. "Oh please. As if." Naruto just looked at her, seeing through her.

"Yeah, whatever." Kurenai crossed her arm and pouted. "Don't tell anyone ok?" Seeing her pout like this, Naruto tilted his head, something sparked. "What do you know about that dinosaur anyway?"

"He's a raptor. A meat eater. He's the top in the raptor pack, he uses Katon. Oh and he's fast."

"Yeah, I kind of figured out the fast part." Kurenai said. "Well I got to go already. See you soon alright? Maybe we can celebrate on your promotion another time ok?"

"Alright bye Kurenai-san." They parted.

After lunch at Ichiraku Ramen. Naruto was heading towards Sasuke's room in the hospital. Whether it's by some blind obligation he had to meet with his team.

He entered the room, to see Sakura seated next to Sasuke with a paper bag full of apples, the Uchiha was just looking off into the distance. "Sakura." He greeted her. In spite of everything that has happened, he still should be respectful.

She turned to see the blonde, noticing his new attire and the difference in how he addressed her.

"Naruto, you've become Chunin?" She asked, quite surprised. "Yep, pretty cool right?" He said.

"Sure. Oh yeah, what's this I hear from Ino? That you were arrested along some other missing nins?" She asked suspiciously.

"Nah, nah. Nothing, it's just mistaken identity. Total misunderstanding." Naruto shrugged it off.

"Oh, well ok then." Sakura went back into peeling the apples. Naruto went to lean back against the wall facing Sakura and Sasuke, hands in his pockets.

Once Sakura finished peeling and cutting the apples, she had them on a plate. Just when she was about to hand a piece to Sasuke, he knocked the plate of her hands.

"Whoa! What the hell you doing?" Naruto said. Sasuke glared at him, not caring about his Chunin vest. Learning from a raptor, Naruto stared at him right back.

"You." Sasuke said. "I want you to fight me. Now." Sakura gasped.

"What? Why? You were just patched by Tsunade Baa-chan." Naruto said. "Shut up and fight me!" Sasuke raised his voice, activating his Sharingan.

Naruto narrowed his eyes, but he decided to play along. He waved his finger, and made a quip to rile Sasuke up.

"Uh, uh, uh. You didn't say the magic word." (Yes, I did it XD)

Sasuke growled, he got out of his bed in stood face to face with Naruto. "Fight me dobe!"

"No." Naruto put his finger, he was getting annoyed by this already, and he made a growl like a raptor. "Sasuke, I'm not going to kick your ass and then get myself in trouble for it." Hearing this, Sasuke clenched his teeth.

"Guys just calm down. Why don't we just talk about this ok?" Sakura tried to douse the fire. Ignoring Sakura, Sasuke then said to Naruto. "Don't talk nonsense dobe. You idiot, you don't have any business in acting all high and mighty."

"Are you scared to fight dobe? Is that it?" Sasuke taunted.

"I've swatted flies bigger than you Teme." Naruto countered. "There you go acting high and mighty again. What you think you can beat me, you honestly think we're equals?" Sasuke said.

Naruto was getting ticked already. "First off, if you don't think we're equals why do you want to pick a fight with me? Second, let's recap. I beat Gaara and Neji. I defended Konoha from the Ichibi. And in case you haven't noticed, I made Chunin. So yeah I don't think we're equals."

Sasuke will hear no more of it. He grabbed Naruto's vest and made a left hook, punching him out of the building through the glass. Naruto quickly recovered and ran up the building and Sasuke pursued.

Landing on the roof, Naruto turned to see Sasuke landing in front of him. "What are you doing?!" Naruto shouted, but Sasuke kept on coming. It was too late to make a hand seal, Naruto kept blocking his fury of punches until one came through, knocking him into the towels that were left hanging to dry.

Sakura came up the roof by the stairs. Sasuke chased after Naruto who running through the hanging towels, the Uchiha kicked Naruto's side, Naruto quickly got up and turned to Sakura.

"Hey! Don't just stand there! Help me take him down!" He shouted at her. But Sakura could not bring herself to hurt her Sasuke-kun.

Sasuke made another kick to Naruto's face causing the blonde to tumble and to get wrapped up in a towel. Sasuke pinned him against the wired fence and began punching the blonde covered in the towel.

Sasuke continued to punch, he noticed something. He wasn't punching something soft like, it was getting harder, tougher. Almost like he was punching rock.

A hand came out of the towel, grabbing Sasuke's arm. A huge scaly three clawed hand. Naruto came out of the towel, showing Sasuke his bulk and sharp teeth. Before Sasuke could make another punch, Naruto grabbed his other free arm. Naruto let out a low guttural roar right in front of Sasuke's face disorienting his vision, Naruto slowly squeezed his grip. With controlled strength, he backhanded Sasuke to the other end of the roof.

"You want a piece of me Teme! You got it now!" Naruto leapt up, an arm pulled back. Sasuke jumped out of the way before the hand slammed into the floor, making a small crater. Sasuke tried to kick Naruto's face, the blonde knocked his leg away hard, and capitalizing the pain Naruto made an uppercut on Sasuke's face.

He undid the Spino Arms, Naruto made a cross seal.

Kage Bunshin No Jutsu

The a few clones were made. "Stop it already Sasuke!" They shouted at him. Sasuke did not care, he made his hand seals.

Katon: Housenka No Jutsu

A volley of small fireballs were shot at the clones and Naruto. He leapt out of the way, and the clones took the fire to prevent collateral damage. "What the f- Are you crazy?! Are you trying to kill me or what?!" Naruto shouted. Sasuke was not listening, making his hand seals.

Katon: Goukakyuu No Jutsu

Flames were fired at Naruto, engulfing the roof in flames. "Naruto!" Sakura shouted. When the fire dissipated, Naruto and a clone was seen, preparing a Rasengan. Sasuke's hand created his Chidori. "I'm not done with you yet!" Sasuke yelled.

The two rushed at each other. But before any of them could make contact, they were thrown off their attack, each slamming into a water tank. "What do you guys think you're doing? That was a bit much for a spar right?" Kakashi in his lazy face said.

"The rasengan. When were you able to do it Naruto?" Kakashi thought.

Sasuke's hand was stuck in the water tank, he pulled it out and water poured out. Naruto's Rasengan hit at the lower part of his water tank, damaging the support beams holding it as well.

"Sasuke were you really trying to kill him?" Kakashi sitting on the water tank asked him sternly. "You really got to watch your arrogance. If you want to fight someone, why don't you try me?" Kakashi narrowed his eye. "You do not use that Chidori against a comrade, so stop being childish."

Before anyone could react, the damage support beams on Naruto's water tank started to break. The support beams gave way, and the water tank started to tilt, Sasuke then noticed the massive hole on the other side of the water tank.

The water tank toppled and fell, with Sakura standing in its path.

"Sakura!" Kakashi yelled. Sakura fell backwards screaming as the water tank fell. She closed her eyes, preparing for her doom.

(Que X-men first class Sub Lift)

But someone intervened. Sakura opened her eyes, the water tank's shadow casted over her. "Sakura, move now!" She looked to see who saved her.

Naruto on one knee, breathing heavily with growls, his Spino Arms holding the water tank above his head. Sakura quickly rolled out of the way, while Naruto was still holding the water tank. The water tank measured tons.

With his Spino strength, he let out a roar.

Pushing himself up, he stood up holding the water tank over his head. Kakashi and Sakura watched in awe, seeing such strength. Sasuke was just ticked. Naruto put the water tank down, away from danger.

Sasuke extremely displeased leapt over the fence, leaving the hospital roof. "Naruto, just how strong have you become?"

Thank you for reading, hope to see you in the next chapter.
