A/N: Welcome back to The Fox and The Wolf , sorry for the long wait .~. Had a bad case of writers block but thankfully with this Coronavirus crap I had some time and motivation surprisingly. Uhm this my first fight scene so criticism would be lovely. I hope you enjoy. I'll try to have chapter 3 ready next week sometime so look forward to that. I don't own naruto nor do I make any profit or any form from this story
The disgruntled murmur that her supposedly top shinobi and clan heads were making, edged Tsudade's already draining headache. Tsunade, Jiraiya, and Kakashi each had identical faces stricken with dread, this only going noticed by Shikaku Nara who has been sitting quietly studying the three ninja. Going through the infinite possibilities they could have three legendary ninja so shaken accompanied by the emergency council meeting in the middle of the afternoon.
Shikaku turned to his Hokage squinting his eyes at the realization.. There were no civilian clan heads present. 'What is going on here?' Shikaku thought to himself before he could voice his concern another beat him to it.
"Tsunade-Dono with all due respect how much longer do you expect us to sit around here? I cant speak for anyone else but I have responsibilities that I have to attend to" spoken smugly by Hiashi Hyuga. Most of the Jonin in the room ignored the mans arrogance but Tsume Inuzuka was far from most Jonin
"Oh shut it Hyuga! You don't here my dog whining about not getting his precious hair brushed, suck it up!" the Inuzuka clan head barked loudly causing those closest to her to wince slightly.
Hiashi Hyuga barely glanced down at the speaker but knew who it was even without his Byakugan "And who is the stain on the wall to compare me to a mutt?" taunting the already explosive Kunochi. "How bout I stain this wall with your blood and I'll show you a real mutt." Tsume snarled. Chakra emanating off her body while she watched the pale-eyed ninja activate his kekkei genkai. Before he could respond to the threat Tsunade spoke "ENOUGH! You all are supposed to be my elite and this is what I deal with? Childish insults and whining." She looked around in disgust.
The room was finally silent for the first time since everyone entered. Tsunade caught eyes with Danzo Shimura who had a strange look of approval and curiosity, probably why he has been so unusually quiet. Tsunade finally spoke "I will be placing the village on a permanent level two state of emergency until further notice." The authority in her voice spoke volumes, yet she still paused to see if anyone had the audacity to speak up or even challenge her. Tsunade continued "This morning one of our anbu units intercepted a young boy and his wolf. After bringing them to my office we found out that they are from The Howling Isles. A Prince and the young boy an Uzumaki, more information will be gathered" she spoke composed and very formal. Still nobody spoke, some of her best looked as if they've been poisoned and were seconds from death. These were the ones who definitely knew of The Howling Isles. Tsume, Shikaku, Anko, Asuma, and even Danzo.
Jiraiya stepped forward to speak "Hundreds of years ago before the discovery of what we now practice as ninjutsu giant beasts roamed the lands, Lions, Foxes, and Wolves with magical powers protected and even helped humans. Saved them from natural disasters, fertilized the lands, and cleaned water. Once Ninshu was discovered they isolated themselves east of The Village Hidden in the Whirlpools. The King of Wolves told the Elder toad his Scouts, Nomads, and Sentries will be called home only to return to save us all from the destruction we would eventually bring onto ourselves."
At that every hand in the room went up.
Meanwhile the new Team 7 assembled at Training Ground 11. Kakashi finally arrived and stood in front of his revamped team and began explaining the exercise "You three will be working together to get these two bells from me. The point of this exercise is for me to see all of you guys strengths and weaknesses, and also see how well you guys can work together. Naruto and Sakura you two have been training under The Legendary Sannin so I expect you both to show that."
At that moment he turned to me " And Hizuko I know you're full of surprises." Kakashi said in the same calm tone he's been using since we've arrived at the training grounds. "That being said I expect none of you to hold back." He finally finished and jumped back "BEGIN"
At the start I jumped back and began running threw hand signs to get the party started "Fire Style: Phoenix Flower Jutsu" "Shadow Clone Justu" Simultaneously Naruto and his clones charged Kakashi running straight into the line of fire of my jutsu. All of the clones didn't even have time to dodge all of them disappearing leaving a puff of smoke in their place. Naruto turned around glaring "Watch where you're aiming, Baka" He shouted
Sakura and Kakashi stared at us both with a sweat drop and I seized the opportunity. I began charging towards Kakashi at full speed, as I ran past Naruto I spoke just loud enough for him to hear "Maybe try staying out my way, Baka '' making sure he saw my smirk. As I approached the silver haired ninja I took my katana out of its sheath and prepared to cut him through but of course he intercepted with his own kunai.
We stared at each other in a deadlock both trying to overpower the other. "Head on approach? Risky.. What do you plan on doing now?" I couldn't tell if he was antagonizing me or just simply curious but either way I showed him. I sent my chakra through my katana and Kakashi stared at me in disbelief as his Kunai began melting and both of our faces turned red from the heat radiating from my sword. Sakura managed to get behind Kakashi at some point and began charging towards us fist raring to go.
Kakashi noticed Sakura and weighed his options. Just before his Kunai was no more Kakashi kicked me square in my chest and sent me flying into Naruto. Then he spun around just in time to catch Sakura's fist and sent her crashing into both of us. "Water Style: Water Dragon Jutsu" Kakashi didn't let up and sent his jutsu right at the three of us. "Earth Style: Rock Wall" I shouted as I slammed my hands on the ground.
The two Jutsu collided and Kakashi was nowhere in sight. We all finally stood up and I turned towards Kyumari who was watching on the sides under a tree. "He's underneath you" He shouted but it was too late a pair of hands appeared around my ankles. Naruto and Sakura reacted in unison to save me in time. Naruto wrapped his arms around my waist trying to hold me above the ground while Kakashi kept pulling me down inch by inch. Sakura stood in front of me with chakra covering her fist and slammed it right below me. Breaking the ground up and causing Kakashi to have to take to the sky.
"Shadow Clone Jutsu" Naruto shouted. Six shadow clones appeared, two of them began propelling the other four Narutos' at the Jonin. Kakashi dispersed the first clone and instantly felt something different. The smoke was hot, way hotter than it should be. The next clone attacked while the other two went for the bells around his waist. He didn't have much choice but to disperse them but with each clone the hotter the smoke got. The two clones on the ground sent the real Naruto Kakashi's way, a rasengan in his hand ready for the Jonin.
Kakashi grabbed Naruto's shoulder for momentum and was able to move behind the blonde and send him crashing into the ground. Kakashi landed a few seconds later, his lone sharingan looking at me "I said don't hold back". Everything about his demeanor is challenging me and I more than accept. Sakura pulled her gloves down while Naruto dusted himself off "You guys mind going for the bells when you see an opening?" I asked my two teammates and they both nodded. 'Perfect' I thought to myself. I stuck my Katana into the ground and started performing hand seals "Fire Style: Great FireBall Jutsu" "Water Style: Water Bullet Jutsu" Kakashi canceled out my jutsu with his. 'Still according to plan' I think to myself, I grabbed my katana and ran through the steam straight for Kakashi.
The jonin seemed to have the same idea and seconds later we were once again in a deadlock. The steam was starting to disappear 'I need to find a way to hold him here' I thought to myself. I took one hand off my blade and performed a one handed sign "Lava Style: Molten Puddle" Kakashi stared at me in disbelief as my jutsu began spreading from my feet melting Kakashi's Sandals in place just as Naruto and Sakura dived in both grabbing a bell.
"Oh my gosh Kakashi-Sensei you should see ya face right now" Naruto laughed throwing the bell in the air and catching it. Sakura pulled out a kunai to help the jonin free "How did you make Lava come from your feet Hizuko?" she asked curiously. "My shoes and blade are able to conduct and manifest my chakra" I explained. "But I think the important question is how did you make Lava come from your feet?" Kakashi asked but continued before I could answer. "I've never heard of an Uzumaki with any elemental kekkei genkai" He finally finished.
I looked towards Kyumari for help but it wasn't really much he could do across the field. "Uhh" I start nervously "Always expect the unexpected from an Uzumaki" I said with a sweatdrop. Kakashi didn't seem to press it anymore.
Instead he turned his attention to the next Uzumaki "And Naruto what did you do to that second batch of clones?" The three of us stared at the Jonin equally confused. "I'm not sure what you mean Kakashi-Sensei" Naruto finally answered. Kakashi sighed as he began taking off his fingerless gloves. Revealing blisters on his knuckles and majority of the back of his hands "Oh my god Kakashi-Sensei!" Sakura almost yelled as she moved to help the jonin.
Naruto and I just stood there standing while Sakura performed Mystical Healing on our team leader "Naruto" Kakashi finally spoke again "Make a shadow clone" Naruto nodded and did what his sensei asked. Sakura turned to look "It looks normal" Kakashi stared at the clone with his Sharingan for a few minutes "It does look normal" He finally spoke. "Have it take a few steps back and Hizuko take it out"
The clone jumped back a few feet and seconds later my kunai hit. The clone dispersed leaving behind scorching hot steam. Way more steam than smoke a normal clone leaves behind. Nobody said anything just looking at the steam dissipating. "Was that a steam clone?" She could've been asking any of us but Sakura looked towards Kakashi hoping he'd have an answer.
With his hands all healed Kakashi pulled his headband over his Sharingan and stood up "I'm going to go buy a new pair of sandals, we depart from the east gate in an hour" The jonin body flickered away before we could even respond.
I walked over to Kyumari, leaving the other two behind "how the hell did that happen?" I asked animatedly
"Wait wait Kakashi what are you telling me" Tsunade sighed pinching the bridge of her nose. "Hizuko Uzumaki is able to use Lava release and Naruto starting making Steam clones in the middle of the-" Tsunade interrupted "I heard you the first time Kakashi" she sighed grabbing a bottle of sake out of her drawer.
Shizune looked as though she wanted to say something but probably knew it was in her best interest not to. "Kakashi not to say you're lying but are you sure?" Jiraiya spoke "If Naruto was gonna awaken a kekkei genkai it definitely would've been during our training" Tsunade looked between the two ninja "Kakashi you said he started doing this in the middle of the fight; so in the beginning of the fight the clones were normal?"
Kakashi nodded. "Maybe he accessed the Kyuubi's chakra" Tsunade spoke out loud "No, that's never happened before and Kakashi's Sharingan would've been able to tell the difference" Jiraiya explained "Kakashi what happened between the first round of clones and the second?" The Sannin questioned.
Kakashi thought for a second before he spoke again "Hizuko and Sakura both charged me, I threw them both into Naruto. Then I used the Hidden Mole Jutsu on Hizuko, Naruto grabbed him stopping me from pulling him down while Sakura destroyed the ground." He finally finished
"Then he made more clones?" Shizune asked and Kakashi nodded. "The only thing that happened was contact with Sakura and …" Tsunade stopped as it dawned on her. "What is it Tsunade-same?" Shizune asked "The only new variable is Hizuko Uzumaki" Jiraiya answered"
The four ninja looked at each other, all wondering what this meant.
