Sleepless D: I got a review that made me think, it said that they were wondering what I was planning since I've got several things going and I can honestly say I've got no clue :p. I make it up as I go along so it makes it an adventure for all of us and I like going through my story as I write it down, now back to the story. Peace out.
Naruto stood there, feeling an odd amount of excitement, his chest was on fire yet his skin was clod, his heart was thumping hard and fast yet time hardly seemed to move, Neji saw this and smirked. "Are you experiencing fear? I see that you're sweating and appear to be on edge." He smirked, forgetting what Naruto told him a few seconds ago.
Naruto grinned, making Neji confused. "Not scared...excited more like..." He chuckled while clenching his knuckles and hearing them click like they've never moved once in his life.
Genma looked back and forth. "Get on with it!" Someone of the crowd yelled.
"Yeah! I've got my money on the Hyuga on this match and I want to collect!" Another yelled.
Naruto bent down and picked up a small rock, staring at it for a few seconds before closing his eyes. "Aw come on you stupid son of a-" Someone yelled but was cut off when Naruto threw the rock at the person and smashed it in the middle of the forehead, the man's legs wobbled before he fell unconscious and making everyone nearby scared.
"Hey! You're here to fight him! Not throw things at the public! So don't do that again..." Genma warned.
"Fine..." Naruto grinned and seemed to show more animal like teeth.
Neji activated his Byakugan and got into his Gentle Fist stance. "If you wish to lose then come and face your unavoidable fate." Neji says.
Naruto did a hand sign and seven puffs of smoke later and there's eight Naruto's. "You're going down!" Naruto yelled and four Naruto's seemed to vanish and appear near Neji in every direction to strike with kunai drawn.
Neji saw them coming in all directions and arched his body from the first ones attack and led his arm away to collide with the second ones kunai just before Neji slammed his foot against the third ones head. The third puffed out of existence and the fourth one appeared behind Neji, trying to take him by surprise but Neji who grabbed hold of the first one and swung him around and smashed him against the fourth, making them both puff away.
The second one managed to grab Neji from behind to hold him in place but Neji saw it coming and quickly kicked backwards against the second Naruto's knee, causing it to brake. Naruto screamed in pain and dropped to the ground on his good knee, Neji appeared behind Naruto and grabbed his head and quickly snapped his neck, Naruto fell until he puffed away.
Neji smirked and turned to see the other four Naruto's preparing for something, one Naruto was running backwards very quickly while one Naruto went left while the other went right. The final one just seemed to stand in the middle with a grin on his face, the one farest away seemed to slow down and faced Neji, the other two also stopped and were holding onto something that his eyes failed to notice since it was very thin. 'Is that...string?' Neji wondered but soon the farest Naruto lifted his legs and shot towards Neji at blinding speed.
Neji's eyes widened as Naruto shot towards him and nearly missed the one that hadn't moved ducked below the string and started running to where Naruto was. Neji could only dodge Naruto by leaning backwards as quickly as he could, (Think Matrix where Neo dodges bullets) Naruto narrowly avoided Neji and kept flying but suddenly his body pointed the opposite direction and seemed to slow down. Everyone and Neji was confused but he suddenly saw elastic string attacked to Naruto and stretched to the Naruto that began running where the previous Naruto was who was trying to stay on the ground. "I'll have you!" Naruto yelled before flying back towards Neji who was still leaned back.
Neji cursed but soon lifted his legs and used his body to spin around and used his arms to keep spinning by using the ground as Naruto shot towards him. Naruto was soon a few inches away from Neji and Neji stuck his fist out and smashed Naruto across the face and went flying into a wall with the other Naruto on the other end of the string with him and crashed into that Naruto and poofed away.
The two final Naruto's stared in confusion and shock. "...You think boss is alright?" One of the clones asked the other.
"Well...we're still here...so I'm guessing no..." The other one said and saw the smoke clear with the Naruto that was the attacker's head in the wall looking limp and unconscious.
Xxx
"Naruto you dumbass! Wake up!" Kiba yelled from the stands.
"...He actually used his real body to attack?" Ino asked. "He's either bold or stupid..." Ino says.
"Yeah...we're still not sure ourselves..." Sakura says. "But I bet it's stupid."
"No...He fights and lives to win; he'd rather defeat his opponent with his real self then a clone." The Haku ice clone said.
"It's still reckless." Ino says.
"Naruto-Kun isn't reckless! He's brave and is willing to actually fight his opponent and not ask for help!" Hinata said in anger, surprising the group of people.
"...Well...let's just hope he's alright...huh?" Kiba says in confusion when he sees an ANBU near the back, wondering why they were there but soon Ino yelled something.
"Naruto's moving!"
Kiba's eyes went back to the action and saw Naruto putting his hands against the wall and started pushing, but that didn't get the strange thought of ANBU members being here. Akamaru started whimpering from inside his shirt, Kiba heard him and couldn't help but chuckle since Akamaru was asleep and asked what happened before his head came up from his shirt to see what was happening.
Xxx
Naruto pushed against the wall and his head came out of the wall, leaving a large hole there and stayed staring at the hole for a few seconds before turning to look at Neji with an animal smirk. "...I'm...back..." He said with difficulty and sounding like an animal.
The two clones stared in shock and confusion as Naruto pointed at Neji. "What the hell is going on?" One of them asked.
"...Get...Him...or...Die..." Naruto ordered them, making even the clones shiver by the bloodlust.
"I'd rather not piss that guy off...you think that's the Kyuubi?" One of them asked.
"...I don't think so..." The other one said.
"...FIGHT...OR...DIE..." Naruto yelled in anger at the two, making them jump.
"Sure boss!" They yelled and charged at Neji.
The two got within a few feet away from Neji and sent several attacks at him that he either dodged or blocked easily, this made them angry and went to more drastic attacks. One went to smash Neji with a swing kick but Neji managed to do a cross block against him and smashed his shin, Naruto collapsed and screamed in pain before puffing away onto smoke. The last clone was behind and went to dropkick him but Neji spun around and smashed his fist against his exposed groin, making him land on the floor and poof away.
"...Too...Weak..." Naruto grumbles.
"If you wish to prove you're stronger than them, I'm more than willing to prove you wrong." Neji smirked.
"...Fine..." Naruto grinned excitedly and vanished, Neji was shocked by this and because he couldn't follow him movement, he only managed to see the attack he was about to do and managed to block him. But that didn't do much since he was sent flying by the force and only stopped by smashing into the wall; Neji managed to land on his feet and felt pain in his back by crashing into the wall.
"That was...unexpected..." He said, feeling his arm and noticed that it was just the force of the speed that hurt him more than his strength, Neji looked at where Naruto was but he vanished once again. He pushed more chakra into his eyes and body, this time seeing where Naruto was coming but could only dodge his attack as Naruto smashed into the wall head first but did more damage to the wall then himself.
Xxx
"What the hell's going on with him?" Sakura yelled, not sure why he's acting like an animal, Ino and Choji agreed while the former Mist ninja were confused. Kiba, Akamaru and Hinata were looking scared since they've been up close and personal with Wild Naruto.
"He's acting more crazed then an all you can eat buffet and Choji..." Ino says.
"Yeah...Wait what!" Choji yelled.
Near them a girl with her hair tied in buns just stared in interest. 'Naruto sure knows how to put Neji on his toes.' Tenten thought to herself.
Xxx
"This seems interesting...any reason he's acting like this?" Haku asked.
"I'm not sure...he acted like this during the preliminary." Shino says, finding it interesting that Naruto was acting like this once again a month after with Kiba and started acting territorial for Hinata back then.
"Man, I hope he doesn't do something stupid." Shikamaru says.
Kankuro and Temari looked in interest while Gaara just watched like nothing was happening but inside he was interested since he recalls him last month and tried to kill him when the moon was full.
Xxx
Naruto turned his head while keeping his head against the wall and glared at Neji before grinning once again. "...That...fun..." He chuckled like a animal and vanished once again and Neji smashed into the ground holding his face and Naruto was close to where Neji was but his fist in the area where Neji's face was. "...Die..." He grunts and goes to smash Neji's skull with his foot.
Neji still had his Byakugan active and saw the attack coming, he rolled away when Naruto's foot came down and causing a small crater where Naruto's foot landed. Neji shot up from the ground and smashed his palm into Naruto's stomach, making him fly away by the force of his hit mixed with chakra.
Naruto did a few back flips and landed on his feet while holding his stomach in pain. "You got lucky with that hit." Neji said, holding his face and feeling that Naruto popped his lip and blood was dripping off his chin.
"...Don't...care...I'll...kill...you..." Naruto grinned and stood straight before vanishing again.
Neji cursed as he could see Naruto he was about to attack once again, he quickly let chakra pour out of his chakra points and started to spin as Naruto got within a few feet from him. Naruto connected and flew several feet away as a large chakra sphere surrounded Neji and left many people looking in confusion and the Hyuga's staring in shock. Naruto slowly stood up looking confused and excited by being hit by something new.
Xxx
"What the hell was that?" Ino asked.
'That was...how could he know that?' Hinata wondered.
'He's lucky that he's still standing.' Tenten thought to herself.
Xxx
"You won't be able to defeat me." Neji smirked.
"...DIE!" Naruto yelled and vanished once again.
Neji quickly activates Rotation while Naruto was charging; Naruto didn't stop and smashed against the wall of chakra, he didn't stop moving, he was trying to send his fist through the shield. He was slowly pushing forward with all the strength he could muster; his fist was having its skin torn from his very hand and was very close to snapping in half. 'This guy's persistent...' Neji thought, finding it shocking that he hasn't been flown away by the power of his ultimate defence.
Naruto had managed to push through by a few feet before Neji put more chakra into it and sent Naruto violently and blindingly into a wall on the opposite end of the stadium, embedding himself within it. Neji stopped and smirked at the sight and turned to the referee. "It's over." He tells him while wiping away the sweat from his brow.
Genma sighed. "The winner is..." Genma began but soon a large amount of noise came from Naruto, he looked and saw his body twitching and slowly removing himself from the wall.

Naruto stood in the middle of a watery room with a giant cage with two giant red eyes staring into him. "Ah...It's been awhile boy, what is it that you wish for?" The Fox asked, Naruto raised his head towards the cage and the Fox looked confused. "You're not the child...who are you?"
Naruto smirked while showing animal like teeth as he stared at the Fox with his ever pale white eyes. "He's not here...give me your power demon!" He ordered him with an animal like voice that had only a hint of Naruto's voice.
The Nine Tailed Fox chuckled. "What makes you think I would do such a thing?"
"I'm the closest thing you'll get to gain some form of escape from this prison...even I wish to be free..." He said while, making himself smarter then he looks.
The Fox looked in interest, still wondering who or what this 'thing' is. "Very well, I've been bored for years and this could be interesting." The Fox smirked and chakra left the cage.
Xxxxx
Naruto yanked his way out of the wall and staggered forward, his wounds and his hand healed and snapped back into place as he walked towards Neji. "How are you even standing...?" Neji began to ask but was soon shocked by his healing rate and his chakra violently skyrocketed.
Naruto stared straight at Neji, his eyes very pale and his pupils were now slits and grinned with even more eagerly at his soon to be pray.
Xxx
The Hokage stared in shock at Naruto managing to use the Nine Tailed Fox's chakra. 'How did he...so the rumours were true...' He thought, remembering that he was told that Jiraiya took Naruto under his wing.
The 'Kazekage' looked in interest by seeing the child that even he managed to give him a hard time with the Kyuubi's chakra and from other reports a more primitive Naruto emerging. 'It just went from one to the other...I think they just overlapped each other...this will be interesting.' He chuckled.
Xxx
At the stadium with Naruto's friends, they stared in interest and shock. "Why do I get a bad feeling about this?" Sakura asked.
"Well the chakra I'm feeling...isn't right..." Ino says nervously.
"What do you mean?" Choji asked.
"Its...almost evil...Naruto's normal chakra used to feel warm..." She says, being a weak chakra sensor thanks to her dad.
'Naruto-Kun...' Hinata thought to herself worryingly.
"Same goes for smell..." Kiba says and see Akamaru hid inside his shirt.
Xxx
"Oh no..." Haku says, remembering this chakra yet it felt more powerful and dark.
"This is going to be a drag." Shikamaru says.
Shino stood in confusion as his parasites moved uneasily by the present chakra.
Temari and Kankuro stared in shock as they felt a strangely familiar chakra that reminded them of the Shukaku, Gaara stood there with an actual interested look on his face. 'So he truly does have a demon.' He says to himself.
Xxx
Takumi and Kazue who were watching a slightly doped up Dosu, they felt the chakra and looked in surprise by the feel of evil and power. "That can't be...no it isn't..." Takumi said, feeling this chakra being similar to something else he'd sensed before.
They then went back to what Haku asked of them and saw Dosu holding his Melody arm to his ear as he ignored Naruto's chakra.

Naruto performed a hand sign and grinned. "Multi Shadow Clone Jutsu!" He yelled and the entire stadium was covered in at least 100 Naruto's. Neji stared in shock but quickly got into a curtain stance, the Hyuga's stared in shock, one by the amount of clones there were and by Neji's stance.
'It can't be!' The Head Hyuga Hiashi thought to himself.
"Eight Trigrams Sixty-Four Palms!" Neji yelled as the Naruto's vanished and started attacking Neji; Neji however had chakra going at its fullest capability and was managing to block and attack all the Naruto's as the attacked.
Naruto's were running in every direction and Neji was finding it too difficult to avoid any attacks now and quickly rotated after dismissing several clones after the Eight Trigram. The chakra sphere expanded and destroyed several more clones and one of the Naruto's flew backwards and drove his fingers into the ground to stop him from going any further, once he stopped he smirked. "This will be fun..." He chuckled.
"As long as I still have chakra, you won't be able to touch me, even if you have that much power." Neji says, looking around to see the other Naruto's smirking as they watched the original starting to move forward. "You won't defeat me! I've already stopped you more them once!" Neji yelled and started rotating when Naruto vanished.
The chakra sphere appeared and Naruto smashed against it and was pushing straight through, although slow. "I'm going to kill you!" Naruto yelled with enough bloodlust that the crowd was shocked by it; he kept pushing through and pulled his arm back.
"Impossible!" Neji yelled but was soon smashed in the head by Naruto's fist.
Neji was sent flying as Naruto dispersed all of his clones while everyone and mostly the Hyuga's stared in shock by Naruto getting through the ultimate defence. Neji quickly tried to but Naruto appeared on top of his and smacked both his hands together and held Neji's face before his own. "I told you." He grinned and smashed his head against Neji's, his headband was sent flying as he cursed in pain, Naruto swung back at ridiculous proportions and soon smashed his head against Neji's again but sending him flying to the other end of the arena.
Naruto stood for a second and suddenly got flashes of images within his head; Naruto rubbed his forehead and saw blood on his hand. Naruto grinned and licked his hand and get even more images and somehow getting images of Neji's life. "Such a shit life...mine was worse than yours." Naruto smirked.
Neji slowly raised and started trying to move away from him with his arms since he couldn't stand and was in pain and actually felt fear for the first time since he first got the curse seal. Naruto smirked and started walking towards Neji to finish him off once and for all. "Naruto-Kun! T-That's enough! P-Please stop!" Someone yelled from the stands.
Naruto looked to see Hinata standing and looking afraid by what Naruto had become, Naruto quickly grabbed his head and screamed in pain.
Naruto opened his eyes to the normal if not a little lighter blue eyes, he looked around confused. "What the hell happened?" Naruto asked.
Genma was looking at Neji and knew that he wouldn't be able to fight anymore and wanted to stop any more bloodshed. "The winner is Naruto Uzumaki!" Genma announces.
Naruto looked around and saw Genma and Neji near him and was even more confused. "Seriously...what the hell happened?" Naruto asked.
People started clapping and cheering for Naruto who was still confused and the audience was also confused and scared at Naruto and what he managed to do. "You've won your fight against Neji; you can go to the waiting area with the others." Genma says, wondering where the next contestant is.
"How did I lose?" Neji wondered aloud, feeling pain throughout his body while rubbing his bloody head and realised his curse seal, but he didn't care anymore.
"It only takes belief to change ones destiny...and from what I hear, Naruto has both belief and is special...or something else completely." Genma chuckled.
Hiashi saw Neji being taken away by the medics and thought it was time to give him his father's last massage and left the stadium.
Genma stood there while a Leaf ninja appeared behind him and told him to go to the next match, skipping Sasuke's and Gaara's, this made him confused but nodded anyway. "We're skipping Sasuke's and Gaara's match for the count we can't find one of them, we'll go to the nest one until he gets here!" He informs them, making everyone confused and surprised by this. "May Shino and Kankuro come down here please?" Genma asked.
"I forfeit!" Kankuro yelled, making everyone angry and confused.
"Very well...Shino is the winner by forfeit, may Haku and Temari come forth then?" Genma says.
Sleepless D: I'll leave it here and I'm surprised by how long I've made Naruto's fight, I probably won't get the next chapter done for awhile, on an aside note, it'll be my birthday on the 22nd and as a gift, could you please review (Puppy dog eyes), you don't have to if you don't want to. Peace out.
