Kitsune memories Chapter 29: The First round blues

As far as Naruto could remember for this match, as he had a feeling it was about to close, Sasuke was dominant, but Konohamaru kept his col, never backing down, and seem to be setting traps left right and centre.

But it was a hot day out, Konohamaru was sweating profusely. He had Sasuke tangled up in Diamond thread wire. The most powerful and explosive wire a ninja could by. He held the wire in his hands.

"Okay Sasuke. It's time to prove my worth. I'm unleashing the rest of what I can do into this last attack. Thunder Spiral Jutsu!!!!!!!!!!" Konohamaru shouted, as his chakra was molded into electricity. This lead to Sasuke being electrocuted for five minutes. Konohamaru then let go, and collapsed.

Sasuke then took this as his chance, but Konohamaru stopped him.

"Don't bother. I didn't want to, but It would appear that I can't continue. At least if I give now, I'll know I pulled everything I could. So I'm out" Konohamaru said, before fainting. Naruto declared the match over.

"Good work, both of you" Naruto said. The next match begun, seeing shock win. Udon then had to face Hanabi.

The match begun. Udon had become more rounded out when it came to his attributes, such as speed, defense, and strength. But Hanabi's ruthless training paid off right here, as after letting Udon unleash his best moves, Hanabi defeated Udon.

Moegi then was in a world of hurt. She to, was evenly balanced, but Diego, was 3 years older, more experienced, and very powerful.

'I don't trust this Diego kid. He's to powerful. I wasn't even this powerful. He must have some sort of bloodline, demon, or inner power that he can freely use. He can manipulate gravity, even of himself. If he's able to do that, he will only become much stronger' Naruto thought, as Moegi was delivered the final blow. Diego had won. When the 13 year old black haired kid locked eyes with Hanabi, there was tension already there.

"We will begin he next round in one hour" Naruto said. He left the stage, and headed to where the participants were allowed to go. He specifically sat down next to Sasuke.

"I knew Konohamaru would be good. He damaged me more then I will let on" Sasuke said. Naruto smirked.

"Well then, defeating shock won't be hard. I can tell he's not overly powerful. But your final round opponent, either Hanabi or Diego, will be a tough challenge. I was training Hanabi, for one specific reason though, and that was to defeat him. Though it may only be to defeat him, she will continue training herself. I don't know how hard she will push herself, but you can bet on my favourite Ramen meal that if you don't continue, she will surpass you" Naruto said. Sasuke smirked.

"I see. Well I wish Sakura didn't have to go on a mission, let alone take Seto with her. I wanted them to see me. But they are on a mission, and apparently, she managed to go to fox mountain, and turn Seto into a half demon. Can you believe that. Not that I don't mind though. Better to get it done and over with" Sasuke said. Naruto nodded. He activated the Ryujiken, and looked at Diego. He got the stats. He looked at the source of his power.

The five tailed scorpion demon, Kadiesel. The Gravity demon.
