(Howdy all Espo here.
As you can see I am writing again. I will be working my hardest to pump out some new chapters, since the proof reading took way longer than I had thought. You can blame festive times, my own laziness, work, and sickness.
As it is I am back and I will be uploading all fully proof read chapters soon to the stories they belong and will post proof read in any stories that are as such.
I also plan on bring in 4 new stories. One will be a small one to three chapter story. The others will be full fledged Fanfictions.
Sorry again for taking so long and please enjoy, and please review.
Also as this story did take a rewrite hit. I will be keeping this story on Hold for a while longer till my beta is done with at least proof reading the first 10 Chapters which were the Hardest hit. As such there is new stuff that will be added in and redone that no one has seen before.
When i post the newest chapter after this one. All chapters for this should be completely proof read.
Sorry again for making you wait so long. I am trying my best.
Espo )
Chapter 28
Naruto made the first move swinging his sword but Sasuke blocked. Naruto, though, was not about to give him a chance to recover and kicked Sasuke. Sasuke stumbled back slightly only to receive another kick that sent him out through a window onto the ground. Quickly Sasuke picked himself back up, as Naruto jumped out the window to more than willing to continue this fight.
As Sasuke got into a defensive stance though he noticed other ninja besides Naruto were on the roofs of some of the nearby buildings. He was sure they were the Anbu tracking team; he then noticed that the Third Hokage, Jiraiya, and Tsunade had shown up as well. They looked like they were going to intervene but a look from Naruto made it clear this was his fight and his fight alone.
Naruto then turned back to Sasuke and sized him up carefully as he spoke, "Sasuke I will give you only one more chance, either give me back my sword or you shall died this day."
"No! I am taking what should have been rightfully mine from the beginning, and now I shall show you how to truly wield a blade like this. Then once I beat you, your other blade shall be mine as well," Sasuke said with increasingly bigger smirk.
Naruto's eyes silted slowly before changing color till they went from his normal blue to blood red in color, as he looked at Sasuke, "Fine then, it is time I end you."
Sasuke merely rolled his own eyes keeping them active as Naruto charged him he smirk grew even more as he was able to predict every one of Naruto's movement. He parried the lunge, then dodged and blocked the next three swings before returning one of his own. Naruto on the other hand was looking increasingly angry as the battle went on till he was finally forced to back off as Sasuke struck in-between Naruto's slightly random attacks. Naruto glared at Sasuke before sighing in annoyance at both himself and Sasuke.
"Well I see your eyes are as powerful as you boost, but you still are the one at the disadvantage unlike me even if you hold the Night Furry blade," Naruto said taking some calming breaths before he lost control of this battle.
Sasuke rolled his eyes again, "oh and what might that be?"
"You cannot activate or use that blade fully. I can," Naruto said with a knowing smile.
"How sure are you of this Naruto," Sasuke said surprisingly calmly for just being told that.
Naruto stopped breathing for a few moments as he tensed but then relaxed again as he smiled, "fine prove it."
"Prove what?" Sasuke asked slightly confused.
"That you can activate that blade, and uses its full power," Naruto said.
"What makes you think I won't?" Sasuke asked his grip getting rather tight around the hilt.
"Because if you could have you would have already done so, which means in your hands it is still only a basic blade not the true blade it is," Naruto said shooting forward.
Sasuke smirked and blocked Naruto's strike parrying the blade away, "Maybe but the fact still remains with my eyes you cannot beat me."
Naruto's smile grew for a few seconds as he pushed with his blade testing how strong Sasuke's strength was, before he spoke again "We shall see as you never know what a person trump card is fully till they play it."
"Oh and what can you do that you have hide from me before now," Sasuke asked figuring this was a bluff.
It was not a bluff as Naruto's speed sped up greatly letting him slip around Sasuke's Guard and lay three cuts on his left arm. As he backed up he saw Naruto bring one of his gloved hands around in a wide circle before pointing it at him. Out from the center of Naruto's palm shot flames forcing Sasuke to jump back for fear of being roasted.
As the flames vanished, Sasuke noticed so had Naruto who had disappeared completely from sight. Sasuke looked about area before he remembered his previous match with Naruto before now and jumped away from the ground. But from behind him, he heard the sound of rushing water. Sasuke was not even able to look behind himself, before he was smashed hard into the ground by a wall of water.
As the water vanished Sasuke got up panting looking around for Naruto, his sword at the ready. Slowly Sasuke spun around looking carefully till he felt someone nut shot him. He stood for all of a second before he fell to the groin holding his groin in pain as he dropped the sword he had been holding.
Sasuke realized the mistake as soon as he made it and went to grab the sword, but it had already vanished into its own shadow. Naruto then rose from the shadow cast by a nearby tree smirking slightly as he lifted both of his swords and pointed them at Sasuke. He swung each one of them once before sheathing them both. One went on his back while the other was at his left side hip.
Naruto then looked at Sasuke closely as Sasuke got up glaring at him, "So Sasuke you lost for the first part. For you see Sasuke the powers that I have show before now as only a small fraction of what I am truly capable of doing."
Sasuke glared at him slowly stand up still slightly in pain, "How, can you be this powerful?"
Naruto shrugged a little, "I trained days on end, and listen to what people told me. And unlike you I fight for my friends, not for my own wants."
Sasuke glared, "That is a joke and you know it."
Naruto shrugged, "If you say that, and now Sasuke I shall end you here."
"You have neither the guts nor the power to do that," Sasuke said drawing out a Kunai before charging at Naruto.
Naruto only placed placed a hand on his pure black Katana that was by his side as he slide into a stance. Naruto then spoke, "First stance, draw," then vanished from sight.
Sasuke only had time to blink before he heard a click behind him as Naruto sheathed his blade completely again. At which time Sasuke fell over as pain coursed through him and blood shot out from two rather large stab wounds he had been given. In Sasuke's mind he was still trying to figure out what had happened as Naruto had vanished from his sight completely in a sheer speed maneuver what was unheard of for an Uchiha to be able to lose track of someone like that.
Naruto turned slowly around and nodded. He motioned to the other watching the fight, before speaking, "you may help him now if you wish. He will die in a few minutes unless he gets any help."
"Naruto you know you should have not done this," Tsunade said moving over.
"Why? Because we need the strength of the Uchiha clan?" Naruto asked glaring lightly at her.
"That is what the council will say when they find out what happened," Jiraiya said already knowing the headache would be a big one by the end of the day.
"Then let me give you two pieces of advice if you decided to let him died. One we have been without the Uchiha clan for a while now and are as strong as ever. Two you are the Hokage and the councils master not the other way around," Naruto said looking semi annoyed before he vanished into his own shadow and was gone without a trace.
