Tobi; Hey, its not the final, he still has three more, and you haven't even seen the last one yet. Temari is the only remaining addition, and trust me, the story of Taisune and the Uchiha is a quite interesting tale that will be this stories climax
Samurai; Hey, Kishi didn't exactly make Naruto weak, taking on all six pains and Nagato on his own, except for a brief aid from Hinata...and then later on defeating the Nine Tails with only brief aid from his mother and the eight tails...I'll be interested to see the two fight
Rixell; Taisune's thoughts were that as well. And Fluffy wanted to add a seal like that...but the seal she wanted would cause EVERY female to want to...well he'd die of a broken pelvis in weeks and many blond haired children will be running about. And its not like he doesn't do that in canon as well...Hinata, Shion, Amaru, and you can even debate Isaribi and Sakura as well showed infatuation with him
Hektols; I thought this was one of my better fights I've written so far
Ceharamic; You will see three more; Crystal, Wood and one, final Kekkei Genkai
Naruhina; Hey, that only is happening with Kurotsuchi, he doesn't fight any of the other girls
Spiderfox; Hey, I have to work on keeping him from being unbeatable. Kurotsuchi's close match with him was a way of showing that he isn't god level, as she virtually would have won if Taisune hadn't intervened. The battles with Suien and Naraka should also have displayed his rather lack of mary suefulness
DBtiger; One Hokage, definitely so in the future I'd say.
WarriorX559; She is not Kushina, and decides Temari, no...
Saiga; Hey, that chapter was 3189 words in length, the longest chapter since chapter 28. And as to the CRA, it has a bit of a parallel between Naruto and Sasuke. Both can apply under it, but Naruto doesn't realize that it really exists, or that the girls have plans with it. Sasuke, however knows it exists and plans to abuse it. He will not just go and randomly kiss any girl he wants for it
Sasuke Teme; No and No...Fluffy apprears
Wait, what happened to my firewall Fluffy looks singed Oh
Really, do I look like Kushina? I feel, old...I AM NOT OLD
Um, you sort of do...with a hint of Sakura in there
THAT IS IT Fluffy pummels Cross
Okay, now to a comment on the Harem Fic genre. The true difficulty in writing this kind of story, is explaining how and why a harem forms and why the girls don't murder one another and Naruto. Some fics just assume girls would be okay with it, but the true reason needs to be explained. In this fic, for instance, Fu and Haku decided to share Naruto because they didn't want to fight over him, added to the point that they probably would kill themselves in doing it. The other girls have not shown to agree to this yet, though Hinata appears to be partial.
Another way to work it is to influence their minds...but that isn't happening here
Konoha stadium
With the battle between Subaku no Temari and Nara Shikamaru about to begin, Taisune didn't really appear to be paying attention. Instead, he appeared to be in thought. (Okay, no fights this chapter, this is due to the fact that the fight is practically going to be the same as the Anime, hence the use of the delayed lava jutsu creating the hole instead of Naruto tunneling it)
Flashback
Taisune, not dressed in his modern clothing, but instead in a flak jacket coated in grime above a long sleeved red shirt and shinobi pants, his face covered by a wolf ANBU mask, stood in confrontation against another, a short little fellow. He was dressed in black, a black like the kind you would see in an abyss. His red eyes were soulless, and his once bright hair was stained red, most likely from his victim's blood.
They found themselves in a dense forest, where little light tricked down from the sun above. Little underbrush appeared to cover the landscape here.
"So...may I ask what your name is" the fellow asked. Taisune rose an eyebrow.
"I believe you already know the answer to that. I am a wanderer, though I've heard of you. They call you, the Blood snatcher, do they not?" he grinned.
"So, you've heard of me, have you? It is true, I am who they call, the Blood Snatcher. I've scoured this land, searching for the greatest and most powerful of Kekkei Genkai; the Aura of Taki, the Scorch of Suna, so I may become the most powerful ninja in existence, to destroy those who have wronged me! And I'd be happy if you'd let me pass, I have a 'date' with a Hyuga to make, for my eighth Kekkei Genkai" Taisune glared at him.
"Your a monster, you know that. As a shinobi, it is my job to destroy monsters like you" Taisune glared down at him. The little shrimp flared up.
"HOW DARE YOU, YOU PEOPLE ARE THE MONSTERS, NOT ME. I SMELL YOUR KEKKEI GENKAI...the one I've sought for beyond all others...GIVE IT TO ME...AURA RELEASE; AURA SPHERE!" the little monster formed a ball of chakra in his hands, before sending it flying towards Taisune.
"WIND RELEASE; BEAST WAVE PALM!" with a swipe of his palm, a sharp current of wind was slammed at the release attack, destroying them both. The boy didn't flinch.
"Delicous, what power, I will have you!" he charged at Taisune, with a crazed look in his eyes. Taisune jumped out of the way, but that didn't stop the wild child.
"Wood Release; Binding Nest!" out of nowhere, from the trees surrounding the boy, pillars of wood grew out rapidly and flew at Taisune. His eyes widened.
"How in Kami...Shadow Clone Jutsu!" a shadow clone of Taisune appeared, being trapped instead by the wood jutsu as Taisune escaped.
"Ice Release; ICE SENBON" hundreds of icy senbon flew at Taisune from the child's crazed state, all aimed at him.
"Beast Wave Palm!" the attacks collided, exploding with force. The boy gave a devilish grin.
"So, you know my secret I see. For my, improved, Chimera technique to work, I have to physically make contact with my opponent...your proving smart, just like I was when I obtained the Ice Release you just saw. And, the smarter the foe, the more delicious his power will be in the end" He pointed both of his arms at Taisune with a grin, who was just standing there.
"ICE RELEASE; ICE SENBON!"
"CRYSTAL RELEASE: HEXAGONAGAL SHURIKAN!" from each hand, the release attacks flew from his arms straight towards Taisune, who opened his eyes...in Sage Mode.
"How in hell is he able to pull off that much control...Shadow Clone Jutsu!" another shadow clone took the hit as he avoided the deadly barrage while running out of the boy's attack range.
"Your only delaying the inevitable...Ice Release; Ice Spikes!" out of the tree's, spikes of ice started forming and striking at Taisune.
"Wind Release; Tempest Burst!" a storm of winds rose from Taisune, blocking the attack while he took a quick refill in Senjutsu chakra.
"Your never take me alive fool!" the child yelled. He shook at the cliche.
"Okay boy, you've asked for it...Ninja Art; Striking Shadow Ramen!" from Taisune's arms, ramen noodles launched from each point and flew at the boy, restraining him.
"I will not be bound by this garbage!" Taisune appeared alarmed that anyone would hate Ramen this much...before electrical currents began crossing the noodles.
"Lightning Release; Lightning surge!" Taisune blinked in alarm, before letting loose a jutsu.
"Wind Release; Drilling Air Bullet!" a air bullet struck the ramen, breaking them off as a fire release from the boy burned off the ramen.
"Did you really think that I only got kekkei genaki from my victims? I gain their strength, all their jutsu, and their control. Haven't got a taste of a Genjutsu user yet, but perhaps a Kurama as a appetizer before my Hyuga, giving me a ninth kekkei genkai? No matter...STORM RELEASE; PHANTOM SURGE!"
"WIND RELEASE; DRILLING AIR BULLET!" the two jutsu collided in a burst of wind, all the time Taisune remained still to regain a bit of Senjutsu power.
"Ninja Art; Apple Shurikan!" from the trees around them, the apples rose up and flew towards the boy, who snarled.
"Ice Release; Swallow Snow Storm!" hundreds of ice swallows forms around the boy and struck the apples, knocking them out. Just at this moment, a team of Konoha ANBU appeared on the scene, and glared at the boy.
"Its, that monster...kill it!"
"FIRE RELEASE: ROARING FLAME SPHERE!" a fire release was launched at the ANBU, striking them and setting them on fire. Taisune shivered
"This kid, he's unreal, how is he this strong. Is this the power of darkness? How could one boy have this much hate and savagery...BEAST WAVE PALM!"
"Lava Release; Lava Geyser" a burst of lava blocked the attack with ease, before he blinked.
"Interesting, that jutsu was used by that fellow from the Fire Temple I met once...he was actually quite tasty despite not having a Kekkei Genkai" he grinned as a red chakra aura began to surround him.
"Crap, that's all I need" Taisune groaned as the boy's red eyes grew slits and began darker, his claws elongated and a charka tail formed behind him. The now beast like boy charged at him on all fours.
"RAH! SCORCH RELEASE: EXTREMELY STEAMING MURDER, JERKY!" hundreds of small fireball like attacks flew at Taisune, who dodged them with Senjutsu enhanced speed, before the boy slammed into a tree and blew it up with ease.
"YOU WILL BE MY FEAST!"
"You, are a psycho, and you will be stopped here...Sacred Sealing Art; 36 Sacred Flavors; Darkness Sealing!" out of the ground, 36 ancient stone Ramen cups rose from the earth, surrounding the fox child before being linked by a static like stream. A burst of chakra flew from each cup, all aimed at the boy, before striking him, causing him to yell in pain.
"RAGH...I, WILL, NOT, DIE, HERE...LAVA RELEASE; KRAKATOA!" from the fox boy, a huge soundwave, only followed seconds by a huge explosion of lava, burst forth, striking into the seal as well into Taisune with a vengeance.
"Crap SEALING STYLE: ETERNAL RAMEN CUP!" a giant cup of ramen formed around Taisune, fully formed as the lava struck it. The boiling liquid knocked the ramen cup back, as the entire area was consumed in lava.
Back to reality
"I give up, I'm virtually out of chakra, and even if I did beat you, Naruto-san would beat me to a pulp" Shikimaru gave up after a lengthy battle with Temari.
"Lazy to the end I see, Winner Subaku no Temari" she didn't seam happy.
"I, lost...to a Konoha Nin..." she sighed as Gaara sand shushined down to her.
"Temari-Nee-san...your probably pass" she blinked out tears from her brothers kind words. In fact, the judges were agreeing.
"Both of them are intelligent, and natural leaders...even if one's immensely lazy"
Flashback again
The forest was no more, now nothing but burning liquid and scorched earth. The Blood Snatcher was in the center, now panting as his burn wounds healed via the fox chakra as a second tail grew. The ramen cup seal, however, remained with a sweating Taisune still inside of it.
"So, your still alive, I WILL DEVOUR YOU, YOU, RAGHHH!" the blood snatcher looked more savage then ever. Taisune shook his head.
"So, your more a monster now then, it seems. No matter, Ninja art; mass devour technique!" In a oddly inhuman show of speed and hunger, Taisune rapidly devoured the ramen inside the cup after removing his mask, though the speed kept his face obscured, as it was eaten, the cup began to dissolve into chakra and vanished. One full Taisune groaned as he left the cup, now out of Sage Mode and tiring.
"Now then, for the second phase of the seal...urg..."
"DIE!" bubbles of red and blue chakra started to form around the blood snatcher, concentrating in between the two tails. The ball formed into a small dense ball, before being shot straight at Taisune like a minature laser beam, just as the side effect kicked in.
"BELCH!" a sonic burp was unleashed from Taisune's mouth, and it struck the miniature tailed beast ball, the two attacks exploding with immense force as they were canceled out. Taisune replaced his mask, as the fox boy growled.
"Persistant, aren't you, RARGH! I will devour your power yet"
"Ninja Art; Striking Shadow Ramen!" the ramen noodles flew at the boy, before the demon fox cloak burned them off.
"You can't penetrate, RAGH, Storm Release; Thunder Cloud Inner Wave!" a blanket of dark clouds formed around Blood Snatcher, as bolts of lightning flew from the clouds at random intervals to strike at Taisune, who dodged them with difficulty.
"Okay, this ends now!" he drew several Kunai, before attaching seal tags to them. Sending them flying, they flew towards the cloaked boy's cloud, which zapped them. However, these seals were special.
"Lightning Seal Activation; Tailed Beast cancellation, go!" a seal originating from Kumo to control their Jinchuriki in issue times, the seals began to activate, drawing away both the tailed beast chakra, and the storm release. The boy wailed in agony.
"My power...MY POWER, HOW DARE YOU, I WILL KILL YOU!" he charged at Taisune, with a look of blood murder on his face.
"BEAST WAVE PALM!" the boy was struck, before he broke apart into wood fragments...
"WOOD CLONE!"
"YOU WILL BE MY GREATEST TASTE!" the Blood Snatcher reached his hand out, to grab Taisune...
