(Welcome back to part two. Hope you guys are ready for the conclusion of Naruto's fight with Han the Five tailed member.)
Last time, Naruto was approached by Han of the Tailed Beasts team requesting a fight with him. Obliged, Naruto accepted the challenge and met up at Iwa High's gym. However Naruto did not expect that his fight with Han would be done in concealment. Without using his eyes, Naruto would have to think hard and fight harder to defeat an opponent he cannot see.
Naruto continued wandering around the foggy field where he was fighting Han. He thought to himself, 'This is insane! I can't even see where I'm going.' he was suddenly attacked from behind by Hun, knocking him to his feet, "Oh, jeez!" he groaned.
Han's voice came from all around him, "Gaara, Yugito, Yagura, and Roushi said you were good. But if you can't even handle facing me in this type of environment I can only express my disappointment."
Naruto frowned, "I'll show you disappointment!" he jumped at what he thought was Han, but realized it was the fog messing with his vision, "Dammit!"
Outside the foggy field, the others were sitting down while looking bored, "What's the point of watching if we're not even watching anything?" Ayako asked in boredom.
"Just because we can't see Naruto doesn't mean we still can't support him." Kisa noted.
"We don't even know how he's doing." Ayako reminded her.
"Anybody got a pair of thermal goggles?" Avaron asked rhetorically.
"Right here!" Akira pulled out a pair.
"Why do you conveniently have a pair of thermal goggles?" Samui asked in confusion.
"Because you never know when you're going to need them." Akira grinned.
"Well it's a good thing you brought them." Tenten said.
"Let me see." Kisa took the goggles, and put them on before activating them.
"Well, do you see them?" Sasuke asked, as the girls were curious.
Kisa saw the thermal signatures for both Naruto and Han through the fog. She could deduce that the bigger thermal signature was Han due to his size, and the smaller one was Naruto. She watched seeing Han was coming at Naruto from all around sneakily, while Naruto didn't look like he was trying.
"Oh dear." she gasped.
"What's wrong, Kisa?" Hiromi asked in confusion.
"Is everything all right?" Samui asked in concern.
"I'm afraid Naruto isn't doing so hot in there." Kisa explained.
"He's not?" Chiyo asked in worry.
"No. In fact he's getting pummeled." she said, as they all looked worried.
Back in the fog, Naruto continued to struggle against Han who was coming at Naruto from so many blind sides he couldn't determine where Han would strike at next.
Naruto thought to himself, 'Damn, if this keeps up I'll lose!'
Han's voice spoke through the fog, "I warned you about trying to fight me without the use of your eyes, and yet you still fight me as if your eyes can help you. Well they can't. If you want to find me you need to go beyond your normal senses."
"Beyond my normal senses?" Naruto pondered, as he was knocked to the floor again by Han. He thought, 'He's right I kept insisting I could still use my eyes in this fog to fight. But I can't, I need to start fighting on another level. Just like my fight with Yugito, I had to match her style and flow. Now I need to fight on Han's level of combat. Don't rely on my eyes.'
He stood still while concentrating feeling as if everything around him was slowing down and could envision what was about to happen. He felt as if Han was right in front of him about to throw a punch.
Naruto quickly raised his hand and caught the fist, taking Han by surprise, "Gotcha!" he shouted as, he spun kicked Han, nailing him in the face.
Han groaned as he rubbed his face, "Very good. You managed to learn to not rely on your sight. But you've taken too many beatings from me already to pull it off now."
"You should know something, Han. I'm doped up on stamina." Naruto said, as he was finally prepared to fight on the same level as Han.
Outside the fog, Kisa gasped and shouted, "NO WAY!"
The group felt startled as Ayako spoke, "Kisa, what's going on?"
"Naruto caught Han's attack, and is fighting back now!" she explained in shock and amaze.
"WHAT?!" they gasped.
"Let me see!" Tenten grabbed the goggles, and put them on to see for herself, "Whoa, she's not kidding. Naruto's taking the fight back to him now."
"Oh, man and we're still missing it!" Ayako groaned.
"Here, you can see for yourself." Tenten handed the goggles off to Ayako.
"Let me see!" Ayako put them on and watched, as Naruto was fighting against Han much better than how Kisa explained before, "Whoa, now that is awesome."
Meanwhile, Naruto was finally able to determine where Han was trying to attack him by concentrating solely on the area surrounding him. When he felt any part of the surrounding area around him felt heavier or too quiet he deduced that where he was about to be attacked.
'I'm not out of the woods here yet,' Naruto thought, 'I need to conserve my strength and wait for the right moment to take Han down.'
Han continued to fight Naruto through the fog, and thought to himself, 'Impressive. Once he caught on about the key to fighting blindly he's drastically improved. Looks like the four were right about him.'
Naruto continued blocking Han's attacks, and was counting down to himself before announcing, "NOW!" he caught another of Han's punches, and using all the strength he could muster up threw Han over his shoulder and sending him out of the fog and onto the gym floor.
Sasuke and the girls saw this and looked back into the fog in wonder as Naruto walked out of it, "Naruto!" the girls called.
Naruto stopped in front of Han, and looked down on him, "Do I disappoint you now?" he inquired.
Han only chuckled humorously and answered, "Not a bit," Naruto smiled and offered Han his hand. Han accepted it and got back to his feet before announcing, "I declare you, Naruto Namikaze the winner!"
Kisa and the girls cheered, while Sasuke smirked and nodded proudly. The girls ran over to Naruto congratulating him, "Naruto, that was awesome!"
"How were ya able to fight in all that fog?" Avaron wondered.
"Yeah, you had to have been blind in there." Akira noted.
"However did you manage to turn the tables?" Hiromi asked.
"It was simple. I just had to resort to relying on something other than my eyes. My other senses helped me see what was around me even when I couldn't see it."
"And it worked." Tenten nodded in approval.
"Good job." Samui smiled.
"Thanks, girls. And thank you, Han. I improved a lot in my fight against you."
Han nodded, "I feel I've improved myself in our fight. I look forward to hearing how you manage against the rest of my team. But for now, bask in your victory."
"I sure will." Naruto nodded, as the group took their leave.
As they were walking through Iwa's parking lot, Naruto spoke, "Man that fog really messed with my eyes. I could be seeing spots for weeks." he joked.
"I'm just glad it didn't permanently blind you or something." Kisa spoke up.
"Then you'd really have to rely on fighting without the use of your eyes." Akira noted.
"So what should we do now?" Samui asked.
"I wanna just go home, relax, and order takeouts. That fighting worked up an appetite." Naruto explained.
"I can believe it coming from you." Kisa replied.
"For real." Sasuke agreed, as Naruto rolled his eyes.
He then turned to the rest of the girls, "Would you all like to join me?"
"Sure." Sasuke smirked.
"Always." Tenten confirmed.
"Sounds cool." Samui nodded.
"What about you girls?" Kisa asked her friends.
"Sounds great." Avaron answered.
"Oh, yeah!" Akira put in.
Ayako seeing Hiromi and Chiyo nodded in agreement spoke, "I think the verdicts clear."
"Then let's get going," Naruto said, as they continued on, "By the way, Tenten, Samui, think I could get a massage from you two. My muscles could use it."
Tenten and Samui smirked, "Don't worry, Naruto, we'll make sure to take care of that." Tenten said, as she locked with Naruto's right arm.
"Just leave it all to us." Samui locked with his left arm.
"Oh, sweet." Naruto panted, while Sasuke and Kisa shook their heads while holding back laughs.
Later that day, Han was speaking with Kami at a diner, "So he won?" Kami inquired.
"He did," Han confirmed, "At first it looked at if he wasn't going to last long with the little touch added to my challenge to him."
"But in the end he surprised you, huh?" Kami smirked.
"He sure did. He learned how to adapt to fighting in the fog without using his sight and turned the tables on me." Han chuckled.
"You did well, Han, despite your loss. It's not only Naruto's job to prove himself to us by defeating us, but it's also our job to mold him into becoming a better street fighter so he'll be prepared the rest of us."
"I understand, and thank you, sir." Han bowed his head.
"Come on, let's have a bite on me." Kami said, and the two laughed.
(And there you go. Naruto managed to adapt to fighting in the fog and was able to defeat Han. How will he fare against the next member of the tailed beast? Wait and find out.)
