(Welcome to the next update guys.)
Naruto and Sasuke stood facing each other in the Valley of the End, while standing on the two statues of Hashirama and Madara. With the help of Shikamaru, Chouji, Kiba, Neji, and Lee, fending off against each of the Oto Ninja that were sent to retrieve Sasuke, Naruto was able to go on ahead to catch up to the Uchiha boy. The two jumped from the statues with a Rasengan and Chidori in hand. When they collided their attacks powers resulted in an explosion that sent them plummeting for the waters below. Naruto used his static electricity to call back his saucer to surf down safely while Sasuke hit the water full force. Naruto groaned, "Ooh that could leave a mark."
Sasuke got up and used his chakra to balance on top of the water, "You're wasting your time trying to bring me back to the village, Naruto." The Uchiha warned Naruto as he got off his saucer.
"Talk all you want because I'm not going back without you, dead or alive." Naruto warned him.
"Then I'm going to have to show you I'm serious!" Sasuke shouted as the two ran to each other and engaged in hand to hand combat.
"You know what I'm capable of Sasuke!" Naruto called as he turned his right arm into Onyx's and slugged Sasuke in the gut sending him rolling across the water, "No matter how much power Orochimaru could offer you, I'll always be a step ahead. But not because my powers make me strong, but it's because I don't fight people out of rage, pride, or greed!"
"Why don't you shut up?!" Sasuke called as he used the phoenix flower jutsu, only for Naruto to ignite two bigger fireballs in his fists and launched them at Sasuke's canceling them out.
Naruto then ran at Sasuke, turning his hands into light energy knives. Sasuke used two kunai to defend himself, as Naruto was giving him everything he had, 'I wish this mission was just a simple kill, but the order was to bring him back first before any decision to kill him is made.' He thought.
Finally Sasuke knocked Naruto back, as the blonde shook it off preparing for another attack. By using a combo of She-Bang's and Onyx's strength to attack Sasuke, the Uchiha wasn't able to block his moves, "Hey Sasuke!" Naruto called, "Think fast!" he threw a zap cap at Sasuke, which released a blinding light, confusing Sasuke's sight long enough for Naruto to stretch his muscle enhanced arms forward punching Sasuke, causing him to fly backwards until he crashed into a wall of the valley.
Naruto surfed on his saucer over to Sasuke and was prepare to grab him and drag him home, until Sasuke shot up with some of the curse marks patterns covering the side of his face, and started fighting Naruto harder, "I will not be outdone by you Naruto, so help me!" Sasuke bellowed as they exchanged blows.
Naruto then gets up, "It's on now Sasuke!" he called as he summoned a dozen Kage Bunshins that took on Sasuke, causing both the Uchiha and Uzumaki to push themselves past their limits.
Sasuke tried to use another Chidori, but Naruto channeled his electricity into his fists and blasted Sasuke, sending him crashing onto the waters again. Sasuke started laughing, which confused Naruto. When the Uchiha reached his feet he looked at Naruto showing him his Sharingan eye reached its three tomoes, "Arigato Naruto, you always were challenging to me, and thanks to you pushing me to my limits it's finally ready."
"Too bad this will be the only fight you ever use it to its full!" Naruto called as he summoned more clones who started throwing fireballs at Sasuke, but using the Sharingan Sasuke was able to read from Naruto's wrist movements the directions he'd throw and was able to avoid the majority of them, while running at Naruto.
Upon reaching Naruto, Sasuke fought all of his Kage Bunshins knocking out one after another. When he and Naruto engaged in hand to hand combat again, Sasuke continued using his Sharingan to predict the moves Naruto was going to make. Naruto seeing he couldn't fight Sasuke in hand to hand in his current state jumped back while forming hand signs, while Sasuke started copying him, "Katon Raiton; Pyro Electro Dragon blasts!" they shouted together and with Sasuke being able to use both elements, he was able to use the Jutsu and both Fire and Electric Dragon blasts collided with each other causing an explosion.
Sasuke was ready incase Naruto showed up and with luck he was flying for him, "Try some originality Duck Butt!" Naruto shouted stretching his arms forward, but Sasuke grabbed them and spun him around. Naruto felt like he was a gymnastics ribbon as he was spun around, until Sasuke let go with Naruto flying back while rolling across the water.
"I can't keep going on like this," he groaned, "Hey Kyubi how about a little juice?"
"You got it, but I feel against Sasuke you'll need more than my regular chakra," Kyubi began, "I will now grant you the power of the fox cloak."
'Fox cloak?' Naruto thought in confusion, as Kyubi's chakra was surrounding him.
"What is this?" Sasuke began trembling as he could see some of Kyubi's aura emitting from Naruto.
Naruto's eyes turned blood red that glowed through his sunglasses making it look like the lenses were red tinted, his nails grew long and sharp, his whiskers became extra feral, and his hair turned bushier, "You're through, Sasuke!" Naruto bellowed as he got down on all fours, and took off like a speeding bullet for Sasuke.
Sasuke tried to halt Naruto by using the Phoenix flower jutsu, but Naruto dodged them. When the Jinchuriki was closing in on Sasuke, he started taking a breath and blew a fire blast from his mouth. Unlike a regular Fire Jutsu that most ninjas breathe this one combined with Kyubi's Chakra practically incinerated the whole area and caused the water level in the lake they were fighting on top of to dry up making it lower for now.
Sasuke was surrounded by the fire not knowing where to go, until a giant sphere which was Naruto encased in his armadillo shell combined with Kyubi's chakra was hurdling right for him and tackled him into the wall causing another crater. Naruto flipped away from Sasuke, still lying in the crater while he uncurled out of his shell and got ready for another move, "Hope you brought ear plugs, Sasuke!" Naruto shouted as he took another deep breath and unleashed his harpy scream that was enhanced by the bijuu chakra. It became louder and more earsplitting. It was so bad that even the valley walls were starting to crack. Sasuke was clutching his ears crying in pain from the sound.
"What is this power?!" Sasuke strained while clutching his ears.
Rather than answer Sasuke, Naruto just dove back down at Sasuke pummeling him with punch after punch, "You're coming back to Konoha whether you want to or not, Sasuke!" Naruto screamed as he used his Kangor feet to kick Sasuke sending him flying backwards to the side the statue of the First Hokage stood. Naruto using his enhanced speed dashed faster than Sasuke flying back and delivered an Onyx punch to the Uchiha when he was coming right at him.
The enhanced punch only sent Sasuke flying back in the same direction the Uchiha founder stood. He crashed in the same crater only putting a bigger dent in it, "Want some more Sasuke?" Naruto shouted and all on its own the chakra arms of the fox cloak stretched forward and grabbed Sasuke and pulled him forward to Naruto.
Naruto flew up into the air with the chakra arms still carrying Sasuke. When Naruto reached the top of the waterfall the chakra arms threw Sasuke up further, only to have Naruto fly faster to catch up with him, "Here's a little something special for you" Naruto appeared above Sasuke ready to kick down on his face with his giant feet, "Kangaroo Barrage!" he shouted, before kicking downward on the Uchiha as he was sent plummeting into the lake.
"Now let's see some sparks fly!" Naruto screamed as he generateed some electricity, only with Kyubi's power he was generating red electricity, just like Static does when he's really mad. He fired the red electricity into a blast at the lake amplifying his already Kyubi enhanced electricity.
Naruto could hear Sasuke screaming all the way from above the waterfall. When he stopped his electromagnetic attack he dove down to retrieve Sasuke, but Sasuke blasted out of the lake with the cursed markings covering more of his body, "Naruto!" Sasuke screamed as he collided with Naruto and they grappled in mid air, until they managed to break hold of each others grip and flew on their opposite sides.
Naruto smirked feeling that Sasuke would be too weak to continue fighting, but was proven wrong as Sasuke got back up with the curse mark covering the rest of his body, "Now it's personal, Naruto!" His skin became dark gray, his nails turned longer, his hair grew longer and colored dark blue, and webbed hands sprouted from his back looking like wings.
Naruto gawked at Sasuke's new form and spoke, "Sasuke, you're fugly," Sasuke didn't answer, but instead conjured a black lightning Chidori, "Ok then, we'll finish this here!" he held out his right hand as the bijuu chakra formed the Rasengan in the palm. The jutsu started mixing with Kyubi's chakra, "All right Sasuke, we're taking you down here and now!" he shouted.
"We? Who's 'we'?" Sasuke asked in confusion.
"Me and my senseis the Meta-Humans!" Naruto called as electricity, fire, light, and shadow encircle Naruto and was being channeled into his Rasengan, "My sensei's powers flow through me and are always with me even if they are not next to me!" He held his Kyubi-Bang Baby enhanced Rasengan, "In this Rasengan is the strength of all my senseis." He explained as reflections of Ebon, the Breed, Static, Gear, Adam, even She-Bang shined in the Rasengan, "With us acting as one we will bring you down!" The two launched themselves from their respective sides flying right for each other before thrusting their powered up jutsus at each other. Naruto's Rasengan being extra powerful managed to overpower Sasuke's Chidori. The jutsus power however was so intense it resulting in a huge explosion.
When the resulting smoke from the after affect started clearing, it showed the valley looked cracked and the water level below the statues had dropped even more. Naruto was lying on the ground with his fox cloak gone. He regained consciousness and groaned, "Oh man, that had to be the most I've ever gone all out," he saw Sasuke not too far form where he was lying on the ground unconscious as well, along with being back in his regular form. He approached the fallen Uchiha and looked down at him, "I should just leave you here to rot and die for what you've done," Naruto suddenly sighed, "Unfortunately everyone's expecting me to bring you home." He took Sasuke's arm and supported him up, while carrying him back by foot since he had no energy to fly.
Suddenly Kakashi appeared before them, "Naruto!" he gasped in relief.
"Kakashi, sorry but you missed all the action." Naruto joked.
Kakashi looked around, "You two must've really gone at it."
"It was the only way to stop him." Naruto replied as Kakashi summoned a single clone to carry Sasuke, while he himself carried Naruto back to the village.
Meanwhile back in Konoha, Virgil, Richie, Shenice, and Adam were there and had been told by the Breed where Naruto was and what happened, "That's just straight up trippin!" Virgil exclaimed.
"For real." Richie agreed.
"I know." Ebon replied.
"What was that kid thinking going to that Orochimaru?" Adam asked.
"You saw what his bro did to him," Puff began, "The kid thought Snake Eyes could give him the kind of power to beat him."
Suddenly Tenten, Hanabi, and Hinata appear, "Hinata, Hanabi, Tenten, what's up?" Virgil asked.
"They're back!" Tenten exclaimed.
"What?" the breed gasped.
"Naruto-kun, and the guys are back and they got Sasuke!" Hanabi answered.
"All right let's go find them and party!" Shiv cheered.
"Don't celebrate yet Shiv they're all in the hospital." Hinata replied in worry.
"Hospital?" Virgil and Hotstreak gasped.
"Yes." Tenten nodded with worry.
"Naruto!" they gasped as they ran for the hospital with the girls following them.
Upon reaching the hospital, they found Kakashi, Guy, Kurenai, and Asuma waiting with the retrieval squads families, "Where are the guys?" Ebon asked.
"They're undergoing treatment." Kurenai sighed.
"So what's their situation?" Virgil asked in worry.
"Chouji and Neji are in the worse condition, but Tsunade and Shizune are doing all they can to heal them." Chouza explained.
"Neji." Hinata and Hanabi gasped for their cousin.
"Oh no." Tenten feared.
"Kiba, Shikamaru, and Lee had the least of injuries, so they'll be fine." Asuma added.
"What about Naruto?" Richie asked curiously as the others listened closely.
"He's resting now," Kakashi answered, "He's overused a lot of chakra in his fight, and his body is slowly healing.
"And is it true, he got Sasuke?" Hotstreak asked.
"Yes, but he's in a similar state, and unconscious." Kakashi replied.
"Whoa." The Breed gasped.
"Yes there's no telling when or if he'll wake up." Kakashi explained and Sakura who had just walked in heard it all.
"Naruto, Sasuke." She gasped.
Hotstreak was looking around the hospital looking uneasy, "What's with you?" Asuma asked.
"I'm not a big fan of hospitals." Hotstreak explained getting attention of the Jonin and Clan Heads, "When I was a kid I had to stay in a hospital for two years."
Meanwhile inside the hospital room, Naruto was lying on a hospital bed with his body covered in bandages, mind his head. His sunglasses were on a table beside his bed and his clothes were in a closet. His eyes slowly opened with his dazed vision until it got clearer. He saw Tsunade looking over him, "Baasan?"
"Finally awake, Naruto? Thank goodness." She sighed.
"What happened to everyone else?" Naruto asked frantically.
"They'll be fine Naruto, but Sasuke however is still unconscious. What did you do to him?" she asked.
"You don't wanna know." He answered.
"Well we're all going to have to hear it at the trial," she began, getting Naruto confused, "We need to determine the punishment for Sasuke who was willing to go nukenin."
"Well what if Sasuke doesn't wake up in time?" Naruto asked.
"We'll worry about that for later, right now you and the others need your rest." Tsunade answered as the door opened and the whole group piled in.
"Naruto!" his girls cried as they ran over to him.
"Are you ok?" Hinata asked in worry.
"Never better." Naruto answered but groaned.
"Please don't ever scare us like that again!" Tenten cried as she hugged him, but not tightly for fear of hurting him.
"So how're you holding up?" Ebon asked curiously.
"Oh fantastic." Naruto answered in sarcasm.
"You gave us quite a scare, man." Richie noted.
"Sorry guys." Naruto replied.
"Well good news is with Sasuke back Snake Face won't be getting his new eyes anytime soon." Virgil said confidently.
"We're not out of the clear yet, Virgil." Tsunade explained, "There's still the trial for the actions of Sasuke."
"Trial?" Virgil asked and Tsunade nodded.
"Looks like we'll be needing Judge Mathis for this." Shiv joked, but the Breed scowled at his attempt at humor.
(And there's the chapter, guys. Now that the Naruto arcs have been covered now, it'll be time to get into some time in Dakota. See ya then.)
