Hey there everyone, so, so, so sorry for the really, really, really, really late update, but my computer was running slower than hell, so I had to find someone to clean it for me. That took long enough, that plus a school project I had to finish. Then I started two more stories, one a Rosario+Vampire story, and the other one a Soul Eater story. Plus I had an insane writers block for this story. But my computer is working relatively well now, school is finally out, and I've cleared my writers block, so I'll do my very best to make sure you don't ever have to wait this long again. Now, without further ado, chapter fifty one, please read, enjoy and review.
Orochimaru was speechless for several moments, his eyes were full of confusion and animosity, but he eventually snapped himself out of it and gave a large, creepy like smile. "You destroy me? A talentless brat like you will never be able to destroy me. Even if that old fool of a teammate of mine has taken pity on you and taught you the art of the Sage, does not mean that you have any actual power."
Out of the corner of his eye, Orochimaru saw Jiraiya, who he hadn't noticed was here before, have a large smile spread across his face. Naruto remained silent for a moment, during that moment his two Shadow clones put Tsunade and Hinata in the arms of Jiraiya, and Brandon. The two Shadow clones disappeared, and Naruto's focus was then placed firmly on the monster in front of him, Orochimaru. "Now, I shall show you just how powerful I am, Orochimaru!"
Orochimaru's smile grew a bit more, "Sasuke, if you kill this nuisance in front of me, then I will reveal to you the location of your Brother."
Sasuke's facial expression was one of pure shock, but only for a moment, it quickly took on one of deadly confidence, pride and determination. Sasuke rushed forward towards Naruto, then brought his right arm back, sword firmly in hand and shot his right arm forward, thrusting his sword at the back of Naruto's neck, hoping to pierce it and end it quickly. But in the blink of an eye, Naruto spun around and stopped the sword dead in it's tracks, with his bare hands, by grabbing it on each side. Sasuke was shocked beyond all belief, he had put all his strength behind that thrust. Naruto, then in one quick motion, maneuvered his hands to the left, breaking the sword in two.
Sasuke couldn't believe his eyes, Naruto could never have gotten that fast, or that strong, not this fast! Naruto then brought his arms back down to his sides, into a neutral position. Sasuke didn't see what Brandon and Jiraiya saw, upon closer inspection, there were two deep gashes on Naruto's hands, that were bleeding profusely, he's just doing his best to hide that fact. But it didn't matter, and Naruto knew it, Sasuke would find out soon enough what his sword really did to his hands. As Sasuke stood there in disbelief, Naruto spoke, "Sasuke, we don't have to fight, I know you don't really wanna kill me. If you did, then that Kunai you buried in my chest three years ago would have pierced my heart, and I wouldn't even be standing here right now."
Sasuke was snapped out of his state of shock by Naruto's words, but was thrown into a spiral of memories, self doubt, hate and envy. Sasuke could not believe Naruto had surpassed him again, that's why he had left the Leaf Village, that's why he joined Orochimaru, to become stronger than Naruto ever could, so he could avenge his fallen clan, by killing his older Brother. Sasuke pulled himself out of it, gritted his teeth so hard, that any more pressure would have made them crack.
Sasuke looked directly into Naruto's eyes, with an expression of pure rage on his face, and spoke, "I only left you alive because of how goddamn weak you are! You will never pose a threat to me, I am far beyond your grasp! My power is so far beyond yours that if I wanted to, I could utterly destroy you with one technique! I left you alive because of how pathetic you are, you lost everything, so I took pity on you! You wanna know the real reason they exiled you? It's because your an utter failure, nothing but a fucking loser! That's why no one wanted you around in the first place, and that's why everyone hated you! And the only reason you ever survived any enemy was because of the goddamn demon within you, you fucking monster vessel!"
Naruto couldn't help but wince at Sasuke's words, they cut, deeply. They also fueled Naruto's fire within, he tried to remain calm on the outside, but he couldn't help but let one tear escape from his right eye, and slide down his face. But besides that, there wasn't much emotion in his expression, just confidence, and calm rage. "Sasuke, you don't actually feel that way, now do you?"
Naruto could sense Sasuke's emotions, but they were so jumbled, that he couldn't get a clear reading from them. Sasuke just struck Naruto in the face, with his right fist, so hard, that you could see bruise begin to from, as Naruto turned back to look at Sasuke once more. "I'm going to kill you, once and for all!"
Sasuke then activated his Sharingan, and quickly brought his left arm back, and shot it forward, but before his left fist could connect with Naruto's face, he had locked it within his right fist, holding it tight, so Sasuke couldn't pry it free from his grasp. Sasuke just stared at Naruto's hold on his left fist for a second, not understanding why he couldn't have seen that coming, but then brought back his right arm, and shot it forward, trying to strike Naruto's face once more, but Naruto caught this as well, with his left hand, with a tight grip. Which prevented Sasuke from pulling his fist free. Sasuke stared at this for a moment too, still utterly confused as to why the Sharingan wasn't helping, but quickly snapped out of it and shot his right knee upward, slamming it hard into Naruto's gut. Naruto couldn't help but wince at the contact between Sasuke's knee, and his abdomen.
And before Naruto could recover, Sasuke did it once more, but with his left knee, Naruto couldn't help but grimace, in pain, Sasuke's knee really had a hard impact on Naruto's gut. But before Sasuke could do it once again, Naruto brought his head back and shot it forward, slamming his head, full force, into Sasuke's head. Sasuke's head flew back from the impact, blood dripping down his forehead, Naruto had busted his head open. But Naruto's head only had a few drops of blood on it, Sasuke's blood to be more specific. And before Sasuke could recover from Naruto's hard headbutt, he shot his head forward, once more, headbutting Sasuke again.
Sasuke's head shot backward once more, the blood sliding down his face, increasing from the blow, that was delivered to his face, by Naruto's head. Sasuke was in a daze, his head was throbbing with extreme pain, and his eyesight was slowly losing it's focus. Naruto didn't give Sasuke time to recover, he quickly brought his right knee up, and slammed it full force into Sasuke's stomach, this caused Sasuke, to unintentionally, hunch over, and spit up a bit of blood. Naruto then let go of Sasuke's fists, brought his own right arm back, and shot it forward, slamming it right into the left side of Sasuke's face, sending him flying backwards, a bit of blood, spilling from his mouth as it happened.
Sasuke flew back and didn't stop until he slammed into a wall, while all of this happened, Orochimaru's scowl grew deeper and deeper. Sasuke fell to his knee's, while Naruto slowly began walking forwards, towards him. Sasuke's eyesight was out of focus, and blurry, he could barely tell what was going on. Sasuke managed to get to his feet, but as he did, Naruto was only a few steps away. But before Naruto could make a move, Sasuke lashed out, striking Naruto in the face, full force, with his left fist. And before Naruto could turn his head, back to face Sasuke, he shot his right knee upward, slamming it full force into Naruto's gut, which caused him to wince in pain.
Then Sasuke quickly shot his right arm forward, slugging Naruto, full force in his face, with his right fist. Sasuke then, quickly shot his left leg upward, kicking Naruto, right in the jaw, causing his head to jerk upwards. Sasuke then jumped up about five feet, and decked Naruto in the chest, with a full strength, drop kick. But, since Naruto had his feet firmly planted on the ground, he just slid back several feet, from the impact, and couldn't help but grimace in quite a bit of pain. Sasuke, landed on his feet, and dashed forward, shoulder charging Naruto, he slammed his right shoulder into Naruto's abdomen, with his full strength, causing Naruto to go sliding back, several more feet, wincing in pain once more.
Sasuke quickly advance once more, he got up close, then went for a low kick, aiming for the back of Naruto's right knee, and he hit his target, causing Naruto to almost buckle. Sasuke then quickly slammed his right fist into Naruto's face, then went for another low kick, this time for the back of Naruto's left knee, and hit his target once more, causing Naruto to almost buckle once more. Sasuke then quickly shot his right leg upward, slamming his foot into Naruto's jaw, forcing him to jerk his head upwards. Sasuke, then jumped up about five feet, and slammed both of his feet into Naruto's chest, drop kicking him once more.
And just as Sasuke had planned, the combination of attacks, loosened Naruto up, which let Sasuke's drop kick, to force him to go flying. Sasuke had forced an opening, so he bent down a bit, putting his right hand in a claw position, near the ground, grabbing his right forearm with his left hand, and began charging his ultimate technique. After a second, lightning began to appear all around Sasuke's right hand, he was charging up for the Chidori, or so it seemed.
Hinata and Tsunade were conscious once more, and standing on their own two feet. Tsunade was confused, and worried, she quickly asked the question she thought only Naruto knew the answer to, "Why isn't he fighting back?"
Hinata, Jiraiya and Brandon, all spoke in unison, "You'll see."
Tsunade looked over at Hinata, Jiraiya and Brandon as if they were nuts, Itachi was watching from the shadows, impressed by Naruto's level of power.
Sasuke dashed forward, as Naruto flipped in mid air, to regain his composure, and landed firmly on the ground, but by this time, Sasuke was up in his face. Sasuke quickly slammed his right hand into Naruto's gut, "Chidori True Spear!"
As it connected with Naruto's gut, a beam of lightning launched from it, slamming right through Naruto's gut, and it extended about ten feet, which puts Naruto a bit of a distance away from Sasuke. The beam of lightning disappeared, and the lightning around Sasuke's right hand ceased to be, Sasuke couldn't help but collapse to his knee's in exhaustion, he had put almost every ounce of chakra he had into that move, it was his second greatest move. The only other one, was saved for Itachi, and it could only be done outside. Naruto fell down onto the ground, blood spilling from the wound he had sustained.
Sasuke was baffled by the realization the Naruto used his chakra to fuck with Sasuke's Sharingan, that takes a lot of chakra control, but nevertheless, he had killed him. Hinata, and Tsunade gasped as all of this happened, while Orochimaru's scowl, turned upside down, into his signature, creepy ass smile. Sasuke had his eyes closed, as he raggedly breathed, trying to supply his lungs with air. His eyes were still closed, as Orochimaru yelled, "Get up Sasuke! Fight!"
Sasuke couldn't help but think, "What the hell is he talking about?"
Sasuke opened his eyes, and Naruto was in his face, blood still pouring from his wound. Sasuke was beyond shocked, "W...what the fuck?"
Naruto then quickly brought his right leg back, and slammed it into the side of Sasuke's face, sending him flying to the left, then before he could slam into the wall, Naruto appear, and slammed his left fist into his face, sending him flying strait back the way he came. As he got close to the wall again, Naruto appeared before him, and slammed his right fist into his face, sending him flying, again, the way he came. But this time, Naruto did not appear to hit him, he just let Sasuke slam into the wall, cracking it, and putting his indentation into it, as well. He fell to the ground, exhausted, drained, and with a badly damaged ego.
Sasuke was ashamed of himself, how could he be so weak, that one of his best techniques, couldn't even stop Naruto, Naruto! Sasuke couldn't help but think, "How am I supposed to avenge my Clan? How? When I can't even defeat Naruto! Naruto of all people! Why am I so worthless? Why am I so weak? How the fuck is he so damn strong? Why? Why? Why? How can he say that he know's how it feels? He never had any family, he never grew up with them! I had mine taken away, I have no family! I must be a true avenger! But how can I become an avenger, if I'm weaker than Naruto?"
Sasuke couldn't take it anymore, this was way too much for his psyche, he was about to snap, he was seriously about to go off the deep end. A few tears slid down his face, and that's when he felt the curse mark begin to spread over his body, it spread rapidly, and it hurt a lot more than it usually did, he couldn't help but scream out in pain, "AHHHHHH!"
Naruto's expression had a bit of concern flash through, as Sasuke cried out in pain, and soon, he transformed, into the second stage of the curse mark. Sasuke's skin was dark grey, with a black four-point star-mark between his eyes and across the bridge of his nose, the white of his eyes turned black, and his irises were that of the Sharingan, since it was already activated. His lips turned blue, he also grew claw-like nails and his hair grew to waist-length without losing its style, and the colored changed to grey. And his shirt was soon ripped in three, by his two large wings that sprouted from his back. Naruto could clearly read his emotions, they sent a chill down his spine. Sasuke quickly dashed towards Naruto, "I'm going to annihilate you!"
Naruto quickly went on the defensive, as Sasuke got up close, and began throwing a flurry of punches, Naruto managed to block them, but with his new speed, and his Sharingan still working a bit, Naruto couldn't get an attack in himself. Naruto kept doing his best at blocking Sasuke's strikes, but Sasuke, soon found an opening, he shot his right hand forward, hitting Naruto full force in the face, almost sending him flying, he then unleashed a torrent of punches to Naruto's face, causing blood to begin trickling out of his mouth, and down his chin. Sasuke then jumped back, and used his wings, to fly up several feet, and shot forward with both of his legs, and slammed both of his legs into Naruto's chest, with a bit of chakra, and all of his strength behind them, giving Naruto an extremely powerful dropkick to the chest.
This sent Naruto flying, but Sasuke quickly flew towards him, and grabbed his shoulders, and slammed him into the ground. Then, before Naruto could defend, Sasuke brought back his right arm, and shot it forward, slamming his fist, into Naruto's wound, causing him severe pain, but he did not yelp. Sasuke grinned, landed on his feet, and quickly jumped back about a dozen feet, and began charging the technique, he could only use in this form, the Black Chidori. Naruto got to his feet, he saw what Sasuke was doing, so he quickly began charging his Rasengan, without any of the extra help, the way it's supposed to be done.
Sasuke quickly dashed forward with his now complete, Black Chidori, and Naruto did the same, and charged forward with his Rasengan.
"Black Chidori!"
"Rasengan!"
The two quickly closed the distance between them, and slammed their techniques together, Sasuke's left handed, Black Chidori, and Naruto's right handed, Rasengan. They pushed, and pushed, Sasuke was quickly getting frustrated, "Just fucking die already!"
"I won't do that!"
"And why the fuck not?"
"Because I won't abandon you like the rest of your family did! I won't die on you, and I will not betray you!"
Sasuke's head began spinning at that statement, it didn't make sense to him, it soothed him, and angered him, at the same time. "W...what? Your fucking nuts!"
"Just stop it! Why can't you see it Sasuke, we're like, no, we are Brothers!"
Sasuke's voice cracked, and was shaky as Naruto said this, "J...just shut up! Get out of my head! Die!"
Naruto and Sasuke then both pushed their attacks forward, with all of their might. This quickly caused their attacks to explode, filling the room with a blinding light.
As the light faded, Naruto was on his feet, his wound bleeding profusely, and Sasuke was lying on the ground, back to normal, and unconscious. Kabuto couldn't believe what had just happened, Naruto wasn't supposed to be this powerful. Orochimaru for once, in a long time, was actually scared, but that didn't compare to the animosity, the rage, and the confusion. Beads of sweat rolled down Orochimaru's face, a deep scowl on his face, and his eyes filled with emotion. Brandon and Jiraiya stood there, both proud of their Pupil, Hinata couldn't help but smile, Naruto had done something incredible, he let Sasuke unleash his rage on him, and still won, without seriously injuring him. Tsunade couldn't believe what she was seeing, Itachi couldn't help but let a small, true smile, grace his face.
Naruto didn't show it, but he was beginning to feel woozy, but he still had something to accomplish. But he was severely weakened right now, he had let Sasuke vent his anger out on him, the cost, Naruto's was now only at half of his full power. And he was bleeding pretty badly, but it didn't matter to him, this might be his only chance to take vengeance upon Orochimaru. So, he turned towards Orochimaru, his eyes filled with rage, his facial expression screaming revenge, and his mind going through all of the horrible things Orochimaru has done. "Orochimaru, today I stand here before you, seeking vengeance for everything you've done, I will avenge the Old Man and every other person you've ever brought misery to! Orochimaru, today, I end you!"
Naruto then quickly dashed towards Orochimaru, Naruto got in close, but being at only half strength, he couldn't stop Orochimaru's tongue from shooting out and wrapping around his arms. Orochimaru the let a snake slither out of his mouth, and out of it's mouth a sword came out, Orochimaru took the sword, and aimed at Naruto and shot it forward, hoping to pierce his head, and kill him. But just as it got close enough to pierce his face, Naruto opened his mouth, and clamped his teeth down on the blade, breaking a quarter of it off. Orochimaru just stared blankly at Naruto when he did this, Naruto then quickly spat the piece of the blade out, at Orochimaru.
He simply moved his shoulder, and the blade fell to the ground, but what he didn't notice was that Naruto had managed to wrap his hand around what was left of the blade, and pull it down, forcing Orochimaru, to cut some of his own tongue off. Orochimaru couldn't help but yelp in pain, "AHH!"
As a medium sized piece of his tongue fell to the floor, blood gushing from his mouth, as he pulled his tongue back into his mouth. "You little bastard!"
Orochimaru then quickly slammed his right fist into Naruto's wound, causing him severe pain, "AHHH!"
Orochimaru let his creepy smile come across his face, as he wiggled his fingers around in Naruto's wound, causing Naruto more extreme pain, "AHH! AHH! AHH!"
Hinata, Brandon, Tsunade and Jiraiya all looked as if they were going to jump in and save Naruto, but before they could, Naruto managed to, in between his yelps of pain, speak, "Ahh! Stay out, ahh! Of this! Ahh! It's my fight!"
Naruto's friends were reluctant to, but they did as he said. Naruto brought his hands to Orochimaru's arm, and pulled it from his wound, "Don't you dare, put your hand inside me again, your creepy ass, child molesting, mother fucking, sunuva bitch!"
Most everybody was a little surprised at Naruto's string of cursing, Naruto quickly pulled Orochimaru's arm out of socket, but that wouldn't do much, so he quickly shot forward, and slammed his left hand, full force, into Orochimaru's gut, causing him to hunch over in pain, and spit up a bit of blood. Naruto then quickly brought his right knee up, slamming it, full force, into Orochimaru's jaw, causing his head to jerk upward, "That's for Grandma Tsunade!"
Naruto then shot his right arm forward, slamming his right fist into Orochimaru's throat, almost crushing his trachea. "That's for Pervy Sage!"
Naruto then quickly shot forward, and slammed his right shoulder into Orochimaru's abdomen, "These are for Sasuke!"
Naruto then brought back his right hand, and shot it forward, slamming it full force into Orochimaru's gut, and repeated this action, several times. Naruto then quickly took a step back, and used a hand sign, creating two Shadow clones, they quickly got behind Orochimaru and got him to his knee's, each one of them, holding one of his arms all the way back, while the real Naruto formed a Rasengan in his right hand, he quickly shot it forward, and slammed it into Orochimaru's chest. "And this, is for, Old Man Hokage!"
The Rasengan exploded upon contact, sending Orochimaru flying through the Shadow clones, and slamming right into a wall, and when he fell to his knee's, his indentation was left in the wall. Naruto's strength was dropping, he had to finish it, Orochimaru had similar thoughts, he stood up, his body shaking as he spoke, his voice filled with animosity, rage, and madness, "THAT'S IT! I'M GOING TO KILL YOU ALL! WITNESS, MY TRUE FORM!"
Orochimaru hunched over in pain, as something began moving beneath his skin, after a second or two, a large, white snake, ripped it's way out of Orochimaru's back, blood flying, as it bursted from the body. The body fell limply to the ground, and there was Orochimaru, in his true form, he was a giant white snake, with his own head, he was horrifyingly hideous. Naruto knew, that if he was going to destroy Orochimaru now, he was going to have to use his ultimate technique, especially since he was at less than half power. Naruto lifted his right arm, up, his hand open, his palm in the position to form the Rasengan, but above his head. The Rasengan slowly began to from within his right, raised hand, while Orochimaru, located him and began slithering forward, as fast as he possibly could.
Naruto quickly put all of his focus and chakra into creating the technique, and within a few seconds, a large Rasengan was formed, but four points of excess energy were attached to it, making it look like a large shuriken. As the Rasengan spun, so did the blade like energy pieces, and soon it grew, and grew some more, until it was quite large, and was ready to be used. Hinata, Brandon, and Tsunade looked at the technique, a bit amazed.
Naruto then brought his right arm down, and behind his back, Orochimaru was only a few inches away now, so Naruto took a few steps forward, and lunged forward, barely seven feet off the ground, as he was a mere inch from Orochimaru's face, he opened up his mouth wide, ready to devour Naruto. Naruto then shot his right arm forward, "Wind Style:Rasen Shuriken!"
Naruto's Rasen Shuriken, and Orochimaru's face made contact, and Naruto pushed forward with all his might, the Rasen Shuriken ripped through Orochimaru like he was butter, in a matter of seconds, Naruto had pushed all the way through, utterly obliterating Orochimaru, the only thing left of him, was his ashes. The technique became smaller and smaller, until it disappeared. Naruto landed on his feet, then fell to his knee's, he took several deep, ragged breaths, his eyes returned to normal, he was no longer in Sage Mode, and he then collapsed to the ground, unconscious.
Hinata, Brandon, Jiraiya and and Tsunade quickly rushed to his side, while Itachi, confident Naruto and Sasuke were in good hands, quickly left. Brandon and Tsunade quickly used their medical nin techniques to heal up Naruto's wound, and after it was healed, they tossed him over Jiraiya's shoulder. Brandon then made his way over to Kabuto, who was in utter shock, Brandon quickly broke his neck, so they didn't have to worry about him later. Brandon the picked up Sasuke and threw him over his shoulder, Brandon, Jiraiya, Tsunade and Hinata then began making their way back to the Uchiha hideout, while Brandon and Jiraiya carried unconscious Sasuke and Naruto.
