Chapter 53: Voided Darkness…
Outside of a cavern…
"So this is where yours was to happen?" A female asked wearing green armor holding a Nodachi over her shoulder.
"Hai, Ino-san. This is the location of the mission, but as you are aware of it is a trap." This time a male sounded off wearing grayish armor with a cloak and a sheathed Nodachi on his back.
"Sai, you could have handled this on your own but I see why you wanted some help, they are your old friends." Ino stated as she went inside followed by Sai.
'They aren't my friends anymore.' Sai thought as he reached for his Nodachi. "Say Ino could you light the way for us?"
"Sure." Ino stated as she moved her Nodachi around and it flared up so bright that the entire single room cave was lit up like it was outside, then she blinked as fifty-five root members screamed in pain from the flash of light.
"I thought so." Sai muttered as he swung his sword wiping out the light in another instant, making those root members scream again in pain.
"Hey enough with the Hollow Darkness they need some Cleansing Light!" Ino stated as she flared her sword again shocking the root members again with the fiercest glow.
"In case you haven't notice they can see us now so they need to stay in the dark!" Sai stated as his sword ate the light again.
"How about Fire Style" Grand Fireball!" A root member shouted hoping he nailed the twosome but hit his own allies.
"Isshin use your head!" Another one shouted out as the group that was hit padded the fires out. "If you can't see where to hit don't bother attacking."
"Sorry Lady Makoto." Isshin stated scared.
"Hey Sai let's finish them off with a single attack." Ino whispered to Sai.
"Sure but won't our attacks cancel?" Sai asked her.
"Not sure but if it fails let's attack after the other." Ino stated as she raised her sword to the air.
"Fine." Sai stated as he to hold his sword up and both swords started to produce electricity.
In both their minds…
'The last time we did this…' Sage thought as he shuddered.
'We both ended up needing to be healed by Kayura…' Cale thought as he too shuddered as they both recalled the blast.
(A/N: Yes when two armor users are near each other the older ones can speak to the others but the distance has to be really close.)
Outside…
"Thunder Bolt Cut!" Ino shouted as she was enveloped by the light of her sword that she then drew down and started to swing it back and forth to create the blast version.
"Black Lightning Slash!" Sai shouted as he then swung his sword to his side and produced black lightning to attack, but to both surprise it melded into one attack and became a swirling bubble of death… That then exploded upon touching one of the Root Ambu members and creating a massive divot in the area and killed everything around the cave.
A few moments later…
"We are so lucky that our armors protect us." Ino stated as she sat on a rock panting.
"Yeah but what was that?" Sai asked as he looked at the new skylight, eh, new clearing they made. "We destroyed the cave we were supposed to fight them in."
"I know that!" Ino snapped as she looked at the devastation they wrought as they merged the attacks.
"Well at least we can rest a bit." Sai stated as he looked off in a direction and happened to see a dragon tail heading downward. "So it looks like Haku created her own move." Sai stated as both of them stood up and looked to a direction. "It seems like we need to head that way." Sai stated as he started to walk followed by Ino.
"I know that much, this is how I felt when I figured I could get Choji." Ino stated as she looked at the direction they were heading in. 'I hope it's nothing we can't handle.'
In Konoha…
"Honey, we won the lottery with Lady Tsunade." Inoichi stated as he held up a lotto ticket.
"How much?" Mai asked.
"Sixty-five thousand with taking the amount Lady Tsunade won out of it." Inoichi stated glad that he won when he realized that Shikaku stated that he would win the lotto if Ino ever hoped something was easier than it should be. "Honey, is Ino on a mission?"
Again in the distance a Black tiger wearing white armor ran by but stopped at a lake and pawed the ground a bit then continued on as if it didn't stop.
A/N: Yes, short but the other battles had only one Ronin involved in the battle so this would be shorter. Now this is over there still is five more fights befoe the ending of this arc set... but what is Black Blaze doing? And how much is Danzo willing to sacrafice for his ideals? Will any of his Root members be able to defeat a Ronin, seeing that all the fights have been against his group? And Ino's richer is that going to be a bad sign? Find out next week, hopefully. I would like some feedback too.
