A duo dressed in black robes walked down the peaceful morning. They were getting closer to their destined location and were currently walking a long a dirt path and on each side rice fields, yet said fields were empty
"I don't like this" One man said, taking off his hood showing his battle scars as well as his distinctful blonde hair and eyepatch. It was Sarutobi Naruto
"I agree" The other man said showing a pale skin man that went by the name Raiden
They continued walking as eventually some merchants would pass them calming them down and even eventually a large caravan of merchants was seen from the distance
As the caravan continued they eventually met each other face to face. A couple of them cowered in fear at the sight of Naruto's scars but it was a daily occurrence for him. Raiden just chuckled and continued walking alongside his partner
However as soon as they passed said caravan several ninja wires sprouted from the ground wrapping themselves around an unsuspecting Naruto and Raiden. Dropping their henges the 20 merchants of the caravan showed to be root opervatives. Not a second later another 50 soldiers came from the trees and behind them two figures walked slowly
Raiden seeing the duo growled and began to shake trying to get free of the wire
"Orochimaru and his sex toy Kabuto nice to meet you again" Raiden spoke giving up on getting free but why not have some fun with them at this point
Orochimaru simply chuckled while Kabuto took a frown
"I see you're doing well Raiden. Now tell me how is your family doing" The sannin asked laughing while Raiden simply glared at him. The rogue ninja shook his head and turned his head to the other man chained up as he licked his lips he then spoke again
"Kukuku Naruto-kun its nice to meet you"
"Likewise, never thought id get to see Danzo's puppet myself" Naruto replied chuckling causing Orochimaru to frown but, the show was far from over
"As you can see Sarutobi-san we're here to kill you so can you please stop acting like we caught you so easily and show yourself" Kaubto spoke up causing Raiden and Naruto to smile at one another
In a split second the ninja wire of Naruto and Raiden caught fire and lightning injuring the hands of the root agents holding them. The duo who had been caught suddenly stood up and flexed their shoulders and arms as if the wire had been nothing to them
Orochimaru smiled, this battle would for sure feed his need for amazing shows of power. After all power was what he seeked. He then backed up with his apprentice and got ready to watch the show
"Seems if we want to get to the snake we need to kill them first" Raiden said taking out his kodachi while Naruto said nothing and summoned his bo staff from a seal on his wrist, he then stomped his feet causing a small blade to appear on each tip of his boots
Neither root or the duo moved, they simply waited for one of them to make a move
And it was done when a root soldier ran at them and soon followed the rest
"Let me deal with them, save your strength"
The voice came from Naruto to Raiden who sighed but compiled and moved his way to a small cliff and sat down cross legged to watch the show as well
Soon after Naruto ran at the huge number of agents who were moving in groups and moved in battle formations unknown to the sarutobi
He did not care however
Using his bo staff as support he launched himself at one of the men and shoved his foot on the neck of the soldier killing him immediately due to his blade. Keeping his momentum he moved in a 180 and shoved his other foot on the gut of another man
Now on the ground he moved his bo staff in front of him blocking the strike of a tanto, he then ducked and moved his right leg to drop the man and then rammed his left foot onto the stomach of the soldier
Stepping back he faced 10 soldiers who had their blades out
He smirked
Sticking his staff on the ground he clasped his hands together he screamed, "Doton: Yomi Numa! (Earth Style: Swamp of the Underworld)
Huge amounts of mud erupted from the ground and buried the men alive
Back with Orochimaru he chuckled, "Seems that old bastard and the fool actually taught the boy some things"
"Indeed" Kabuto replied, although inside he wasn't too happy seeing how strong the blonde was. Even Kabuto had to admit he was no challenge to the young ninja
Back with Naruto he easily evaded a barrage of kunai and shuriken that had been thrown at him
A couple of ninja had managed to throw smoke bombs at him causing the area round him to fill with smoke. However even in smoke his sense of smell never failed him
Grabbing his bo staff he had stuck to the ground he ran into an unsuspecting ninja that had thought they had caught some time to devise a plan. He smacked his bo staff into the fibs of one of them breaking them completely
One of them seeing the blonde threw a kunai with a explosive tag only for Naruto to turn around and grab it, he then knew it back at him making him blow himself up along with another couple of unlucky ninja
As soon as the smoke cleared all that was left were 15 ninja while the bodys of the dead ones surrounded around Naruto who had a uncaring expression
"Ill end this pointless battle now" The blonde said, putting his bo staff back in its storage seal he jumped back and creating a seal less clone next to him who waved hand signs and the original only clasped his hands together as they screamed
"Doton: Doryudan!" (Earth Style: Earth Dragon Bullet) The original screamed
"Katon: Gokakyu No Jutsu!" (Fire Style: Fireball Jutsu!"
A head of a dragon made of mud erupted from the ground as it soon spouted enough hard mud to the ninja as the clone spewed fire from its mouth making the deadly combination kill the ninja almost instantly
The original Naruto dropped the techniques and clone and started walking to the smirking Orochimaru and slightly sweating Kabuto, soon after Raiden landed next to him
"Kukuku Naruto-kun that was quite the show but I have a feeling that is only the tip of the iceberg for you, how about you show me your true power BOY"
In a split second Orochimaru slammed his fist into Naruto causing blood to spout from his mouth and launch away with great speeds into a tree
Raiden tried to slash the snake with his Kodachi but was met with Kabuto who had a kunai holding back the blade
"Your fight is with me" He said pushing Raiden away and fighting him back away from Orochimaru
"Show me your true power Naruto-kun" Orochimaru said, soon after he rolled up his sleeve showing black markings along his arm. He then bit his thumb and let the blood of his thumb to rest on the tattoo
"Kuchiyose No Jutsu!" (Summoning Jutsu!"
In a puff of smoke a large snake appeared and on top of it was Orochimaru smiling sinisterly
"What am I doing here!?" The snake cursed
"To fight for me of course Manda"
"I want 100 sacrifices for this Orochimaru!"
"Deal" he replied laughing getting ready to see what Naruto would come up with
"I see" Was all that Naruto said who closed his eyes and prepared his technique
"Kuchiyose No Justu!" (Summoning Jutsu!"
In a puff of smoke a large toad appeared, a toad Orochimaru and Manda knew all too well
Gamabunta the toad boss
"I see you finally summoned me Naruto. Ive been waiting for you" He said making Naruto chuckle nervously
"My bad boss but now its time we fight together!" He replied raising his fist triumphantly causing Gamabunta to smile and grab onto the handle of his sword
"Indeed it is that time"
Back with Orochimaru he sneered his teeth cursing his damn luck, the blonde was stronger than he led on to be. The blonde reminded him of his sensei and old teammate a little too much
As Gamabunta was about to take out his blade Manda wasted to time and launched itself at Gamabunta
"Ive always wanted frog legs for dinner" He hissed
Raiden and Kabuto
"I remember you. You were that weakling of a boy who stood by and watched as Orochimaru-smama killed your village" Kabuto said pointing at Raiden with a grin
The bounty hunter clenched his teeth and said, "I wish to no longer talk, I only want to kill you-
"Raiton: Sandaboruto!" (Lightning Style: Thunderbolt)
Creating two blueish spheres in his hands Raiden released deadly lightning from them causing the general area to fill up with electricity. The consequence of this was all the lightning filling up in Kabuto's body caused him to bend down on one knee, it even went as far as his body becoming dumb and painful twitching to become of his body
"Dammit" Kabuto whispered, he never expected this random man to have such skill in lightning release. He was going to have to reveal his trump cards a little earlier than expected. Slowly standing up he put his fist forward as two blue scalpel like blades appeared in the form of chakra on his hands
"Ah I've hear stories of those who use chakra scalpels in battle, never thought I'd get to see it" Raiden said, quickly he took out his Kodachi and surrounded it with lightning chakra so it would be able to withstand the chakra blades
Quickly they ran at each other as fast as they could, eventually colliding their blades into each other creating a small spark of lightning. Eventually the more the blades clashed the more the technique of Kabuto seemed to wear out though
'So it CAN'T withstand my lightning; good to know' Raden thought as a small smoke emerged from his face. This was proving to be a easier battle than he had anticipated
Kabuto on his part dropped his fading technique and took out a kunai and threw it at Raiden who blocked it, but that was a diversion
Thanks to Raiden putting his attention into the upcoming kunai Kabuto managed to hide
"That wont work!" He screamed as he quickly flashed threw a couple of hand seals and screamed-
"Raiton: Jibashi!" (Lightning Style: Electromagnetic Murderer)
Raiden pushed as much chakra as he physically could. This caused the lightning that already surrounded the area to begin to rip trees apart and the loud crackle of lightning to become the only sound that filled the area
Eventually a large thud was heard, walking to it Raiden saw the unconscious body of the snake's apprentice
"Heh" He said, smiling sinisterly he once again took out his kodachi and stabbed it threw the heart of his enemy
Expecting blood however, nothing came out
Instead Kabuto turned into mud
"Dammit that can only mean one thing!" Raiden screamed running towards the large fire that showed itself on the other side of a large cliff
He ran to finish the fight once and for all with his first friend Naruto
