Shit"
"A-are you okay!?"
"I should be asking you that dattebayo" Naruto laughed weakly scratching the back of his head weakly embarrassed of a random civilian having to see all that
"Im fine" She responded a little more confidently
"Thats great now you should leave there might be more around-" Naruto cut himself off grabbing the girl quickly evading large earth spikes that had came for them
Quickly grabbing a kunai from his vest he threw it at a nearby bush and not a second later a body dropped dead with a kunai to its head
"Stay close to me" Naruto whispered to the girl pushing her closer to him eventually she was grabbing onto him with her arms around his waist
Putting up a single hand seal Naruto called out
"Kage Bunshin No Jutsu!" (Shadow Clone Technique)
Two clones appeared in front of Naruto quickly flashing threw hand signs
"Katon Gokakyu No Jutsu!" (Fire Style: Fireball Jutsu)
Both clones spewed their fire as they united creating a devastating fire stream that began to engulf a area that had multiple root members who had been caught thanks to Naruto's byakugan
"Its over now" Naruto said trying to get the girl to release him. However something was wrong, she was reaching for her pouch as if going for a weapon
Quickly pushing her away he grabbed a kunai and blocked multiple senbon coming at him
"What are you doing!"
"I came here to finish the job for my boss Sabuza-sama"
In a blur of speed another figure joined the fight and landed next to Haku kicking her away with great force
"I knew I was right to follow you sensei"
There stood Sakura with a huge grin on her face as she would finally be able to prove herself, and what better way to do it than in the heat of battle
"You know better than to join in on this fight" A voice called out slowly walking from the forest and into the clearing showing Sabuza Momochi
'Dammit I need to take care of Sabuza but could Sakura really handle that girl'
"Its fine sensei I got her" Sakura responded as if she could read Naruto's thoughts. Quickly she brought up her ninjato and began to block incoming senbon while Naruto rushed at Sabuza clashing a kunai with Sabuza's executioner's blade
"Your student is as good as dead. She's weak compared to Haku and not only that...but she lacks the intent to kill"
"Thats where you're wrong Sabuza its your student who lacks the intent to kill, I mean who choses senbon as a weapon she obviously trying to injure not kill"
"WE'LL SEE"
Naruto and Sabuza clashed blades once again fighting for dominance. They would occasionally switch places and swing at each other as if they were dancing and trying to prolong the fight as soon as possible. Naruto had his reasons but why was Sabuza doing this
Haku vs Sakura
Sakura began to pant having had blocked another barrage of senbon coming for her vital spots. In a quick second Sakura herself threw multiple senbn laced with poison at Haku but she evades them with ease having the much superior speed against Sakura
"CHAAA" Sakura chanted her war cry smacking her chakra induced fist into the ground making the ground around Haku to crumble and split apart
'What immense strength, I need to make sure she doesn't hit me' Haku thoughts spinned threw her mind trying to devise a plan that didnt involve her getting close
"Sensatsu Suisho" (Secret Jutsu: One Thousand Needles Of Death" A thousand needles made of water made their way towards Sakura who was shocked at the horrible situation she was in
'Dammit I still dont know any elemental jutsu damn you sensei' Sakura mentally cursed her sensei for the predicament she was in that could have been avoided easier than how she was going to use
"Kage Bunshin No Jutsu!" Sakura screamed creating a single clown that threw her away letting the clone take the needles instead of her
'She's got quick battle IQ but can she match my speed' Haku ran in jounin speeds eventually reaching Sakura's gut putting her fist into her making her scream in pain and fly away crashing into a nearby tree
"As I thought I'm faster"
"That may be true but a true shinobi must see the hidden meaning in things ya know" Sakura chanted out grinning puffing into smoke. Not a second later Sakura slammed her heel into Haku's back pushing her into the ground creating a hde crater
"H-how" Haku said with anger towards her opponent
I had a clone underground near you waiting for the perfect moment to strike now ITS OVER" Sakura said as she was getting ready to slam her sword into Haku. However she was pushed away and suddenly became surrounded by ice mirrors
"This is my ultimate technique. Let me show you the difference between us weakling"
In each mirror began to appear Haku as if there was a bunshin in each one. Sakura tried slamming her fist into one but to no avail as it just began to repair like nothing
'Dammit this situation just got worse'
"Why are stalling for time when Kakashi could be here any minute?" Naruto asked ducking under a punch putting his own fist forward hitting Sabuza in his gut making him grunt but taking the pain like a true ninja
"Because Naruto I have a little surprise for you" Sabuza grinned maniacally under his bandages. Even after taking a clear beating from Naruto just know he knew that this was not a battle to be lost, he had to win no matter what
"Suiton: Mizu Shuriken!" (Water Style: Water Shuriken)
Naruto launched multiple shuriken made of water towards Sabuza who either blocked them or dodged them, but this gave Naruto the opening he needed. In a sudden burst of speed that shocked Sabuza he felt unimaginable pain coming from his stomach. Naruto had placed his fist into him as hard as he could making the missing ninja scream in pain and fly away
However the 'Sabuza' turned into water. The real one had his blade pointed at Naruto behind him
"Its over God's successor I have won" Sabuza cut threw Naruto but he puffed into smoke showing it to be a kage bunshin
"That's where you're wrong"
Naruto had a kunai to Sabuza's neck standing behind him with a foxy grin sighing internally for having finished the fight early like he wanted
"You underestimate me Naruto. My skill far outweigh yours" Sabuza swinged his head back headbutting Naruto, in a sudden succession of moves he slammed his knee into Narutos gut then placed his fist into his jaw sending him back in unbearable pain
'Dammit I need to end this quickly' Naruto thought creating a blue sphere of chakra into his palm
'That doesn't look good' Sabuza thought agreeing with himself it was not a good idea to let himself be hit by that jutsu
Running straightward at Sabuza he grinned seeing that the blonde made the mistake of going for a straight on attack. However Naruto also grinned
"A ninja must see threw deception" Naruto puffed into smoke while a voice behind the swordsman screamed "RASENGAN!"
The jutsu landed on Sabuza causing him to scream in pain and fall into the ground cursing a huge crater around him. Although before he passed out he managed to whisper out to Naruto
"Gato ratted you out to Iwagakure"
"Sees you took care of him" Came the voice of Kakashi and behind him Sai and Sasuke
"SHIT" Naruto cursed ignoring them and running towards were he last left Sakura
'This cant be good' Kakashi thought to himself soon running suit behind Naruto
A couple of minutes before
"DAMMIT" Sakura screamed getting cut again from a senbon to her leg
"Why can you just die!" Haku screamed launching more senbon at Sakura who kept managing to dodge and rarely get one or two senbon stuck to her
"I-I cant die here. N-not until I prove myself to everyone, ILL SHOW THEM THAT THEY WERE WRONG ABOUT ME" Sakura screamed spitting out blood she took out her ninjato and put it forwards getting ready for her attack
"Uzumaki Style: Whirlpool Slash!" Sakura said as her blade turned blue. She slashed her blade in a 360 degree angle creating huge force of winds against the ice mirrors cracking and even breaking some but that was not enough
"It is not enough Sakura. You die here accept your fate"
"FATE IS BULLSHIT!"
Sakura dodged another barrage of senbon not realizing Haku was preparing another technique
"Hissatsu Hyoso!" (Certain Kill Ice Spears)
Ice spears emerged from the bottom of Sakura striking her in her leg and right eye making her scream in pain
"AGHHHHH" Sakura screamed in pain breaking the spears with her bare hands
"DAMN YOU!" Sakura putting all her will and force into her blade she smashed it into the ground creating a huge shockwave catching Haku off-guard as the ice mirrors all broke leaving Haku stunned a couple of feet away from a near dead Sakura
'What power...this girl needs to die. For Sabuza-sama' Haku created a dagger of ice into her hand slowly walking towards Sakura
"I-im not done yet" Sakura whispered out throwing out her broken ninjato and taking out a single trench knife she had for situations for this one
"Your will to keep going, its strong and I respect that but that alone is not enough" Haku said rushing towards Sakura who had her free hand on her eye to prevent herself from bleeding anymore. They both clashed blades, each getting a few cuts in shredding their clothes
By this time Sakura was reaching her physical limit, she could just not possibly keep on going in this fight with her near empty chakra reserves she could die any minute
"If im going to die I know I did it for the right cause and I wont regret it. I will die like a true ninja"
Haku dodging a slash pushed her dagger deep inside Sakura's leg making her scream, not giving up however Sakura shoved her blade into Haku's chest making her gasp
""Its over...for both of us" Sakura whispered to Haku who managed to crack a small smile
"I guess it is"
A few seconds of pure silence followed by a sound of both their bodies hitting the ground was heard
"SAKURA!" Naruto screamed out realizing her had made in too late when he saw both bodies
"No" Kakashi barely managed to speak out that single word as his memories of his old genin team emerged
Team 7 surrounded Sakura trying to heal her as soon as possible. Naruto was pumping as much of his own chakra that he could into her to save her from chakra exhaustion but her eye was a huge problem. She basically had no eye just a hollow hole were blood ket spouting out
"Sakura" Sai and Sasuke gasped out. Sasuke seeing her was too focused on her well being to even realize the blood red one tomoe sharingan that had awakened in him. Did he really care about sakura that much to have awakened the cursed dojutsu for her
"I know what needs to be done" Naruto took off his eyepatch showing his byakugan making the genin gasp not ever knowing what was under that eye patch. Taking the famed kekkei genkai he started to put it into Sakura and successfully managed to transplant the eye into her
"She'll be fine for now" Naruto spoke out much to the relief of everyone. On the other side Haku was starting to awaken greeting her master Sabuza who was nearing her
"Ill kill you both right here" Naruto whispered out ignoring the pain in his eye he ran in bloding speeds towards a shocked Sabuza who was too exhausted to counter soon enough
Naruto now behind him created a normal rasengan it suddenly began to turn black with flames surrounding the black sphere
"Katon: Goen Rasengan!" (Fire Style: Great Flames Rasengan)
The black sphere smashed into a screaming Sabuza who began to be surrounded by black flames mirroring those of the amaterasu flames until Sabuza was nothing but ashes
"SABUZA-SAMA" Haku screamed from the floor "H-he was all I had...Kill me Naruto-san"
"With pleasure"
"Kage Bunshin No Jutsu!" (Shadow Clone Jutsu!)
Naruto created two shadow clones that holded Haku down. A glimpse of pity and anger emerged from Naruto's face but in the moment he gave no fuckes towards the life of the bastards that dared kill his student
"Goodbye" Naruto spoke killing Haku quickly with a kunai. Blood spattered across his clothes and face before he got off Haku
"That was unnecessary Naruto" Kakashi spoke with sadness
"There is no such thing in this cruel world" Naruto whispered out holding his student close letting out a tear of blood from his lone eye
'Il never let anybody hurt you again'
"Seem that we finally found you Sarutobi Naruto" Came a voice not too far away showing Gato and around 30 Iwa Anbu
"This cant be good" Sasuke and Sai said at the same time backing away slowly towards Kakashi
"Leave this to us" Kakashi said to his team walking towards the anbu followed suit by Naruto
"Trash like Iwa deserve death" Naruto chuckled darkly making everyone around him even Kakashi shudder feeling the blondes killer intent
'We're going to have a nice talk when we get back home Naruto' The kyuubi thought in his cage ignoring the slaughter going on in front of him
