Part 12

Yells of fear from all villagers as they stampede away, trying to find shelter from the chaos being spread. "What exactly did Itachi need for me again? Couldn't he set up the explosives himself? Just a waste of time" he almost bit his lip as he saw a group of Anbu rush to the scene and begin to diffuse the flames caused by the explosion. "That was quick" he thought to himself as he set up chain explosions at all the corners of the village. 'This should spread them thin.'

Tsunade watched as the centre of the event was erupted into explosion. To some degree she was shocked that the enemy would the main event first looking at the number of Anbu she had present as well as some of the big names who hung around. She did her best blowing large debris into smaller ones protecting her people as well offering assistance in medical aid. "Lady Hokage, we've received reports that the corner walls of the village have been attacked" an Anbu with a Demon like mask informed her. "That's your area of work Demon! So how about you get working huh?' She replied with annoyance in her tone, she looked up to see a huge chunk of building break of from his original structure and threaten to squash some civilains however before the debris could land a chirping noise was heard and the debris was destroyed into several mini pieces. Then A silver haired man with a mask landed beside them his left eye spinning red as he covers it with his ninja band.

"That would be rather unnecessary, Lady Hokage" he stated to the two of them. "If external forces would have infiltrated the village they would already be in, it's been more than 15 minutes since the explosion at the corner's of the village happened" Demon continued for him. "That means they are already in and are just trying to run as thin" she finished. 'How'd any enemies get in here without them noticing? Through the Sand maybe? By joining the travellers without them noticing?' she began to think and think. "But then How?" she thought aloud.

'hm? They're not moving to cover those areas anymore' Naruto noticed as the Anbu in the Demon mask signaled for the remaining Anbu to gather around them. 'they noticed rather quick! What to do now' he pondered, he couldn't have them alert the other's it would make for a rather messy situation especially if he'd have to face the Sand forces as well. He suddenly took notice of some of the Anbu who received new orders and began to head towards the hokage residence. 'oh oh can't have you intruding on Good'ol Itachi.'

Before they could make any progress he threw a bunch of needles at their necks and watched as they crumbled unconscious on the roof tops. Tsunade watched as 4 of her men suddenly fell and stopped moving, The demon turned to the direction in which the needles came from and there he saw a man like figure in a black get-up with a hoodie and animalistic looking mask. In anger he weaved his hands and launched are fireball jutsu and it flew across the gap in quick speeds. Naruto watched as the ball became bigger and bigger, heading closer towards him. Weaving his hands, he launches an assault of his own, {water style: water bullet jutsu}. Tsunade, Kakashi and Demon watch as a large sphere of water clashes with the fire ball causing a huge gust of steam to blow around the event centre.

Demon agitated that his attempt was dispatched rather quickly begins to prepare for another assault, "No don't!" Kakashi yells out, alerting Demon who halts and looks at his superior. "We don't his motives, shooting off random jutsu's can increase the damage radius and even endanger citizens. So relax Sasuke." Demon now identified as Sasuke shakes his head slowly showing his understanding of the situation at hand, Kakashi waits as they steam clears and looks in the direction of where the attack came from but the figure isn't anywhere to be seen. "Everyone on guard" he yells out and all follow his command and begin to move into mini groups.

'Guess I have to go down there' Naruto told himself, "you mean you're itching to brawl brat..not that you have to be there" a demonic voice told him causing him to grin. "maybe".

He leaps from his spot and into the air, and is immediately being made a target for several kunai's although none manage to hit him. He lands smoothly on both feet as he stares he down the group of men infront of him. Sasuke unsheathes his sword as he stands between Tsunade and Kakashi and walks a tad bit ahead of them, "We give you the option of surrender" he stated plainly as he puts takes a stance. Naruto laughs and throws a kunai at him but it's easily deflected behind the group. "so be it then" sasuke states and with that the Anbu's fly forward. Naruto charges at them with a kunai in each hand, he leaps in the air meeting his first victim with a boot to the face using that momentum to propel himself backwards in the air as the victim tumbled into his comrades. More and more leap at him at which he ducks under a kick and grabs the assailants legs slamming him into the ground before quickly parrying a punch from another using that as a counter throws a right a hook which sends him flying. Still on the defense he uses his kunai to block a downward swing of a katana and he continues to tussle with a blade wielder another pops up from the back swinging a kick at him. He manages to push the wielder back and holds his kunai waving as it stabs the assailants foot and the blond flips backwards out of the danger zone. He weaves a jutsu so fast no one can view the handsigns, {wind style: Tornado trap} he engulfs the rest of the anbu in a Tornado and creates two clones beside him one shoots a water bullet into the air and the pressure from the tornado bursts it causing a little drizzle which takes effect in the tornado and the final clones fires a lighting style which ends up mixing up with the water to incapacitate the anbu's. Kakashi washes in awe while Tsunade frowns at the mysterious man. He disperses the tornado and bunch of bodies fall to the ground, Naruto walks towards the trio cracking his knuckles, "They're not dead so don't gimme any looks" he states plainly. "You're quite the skilled one and you seem young…so what's your motive" Kakashi asks out as he pulls up his headband to reveal his sharingan. "Nothing really" The Uchiha spits as he stands beside his former mentor, "You're just another Crazy bozo" he states as he hold his blade up and charges at Naruto from the right while Kakashi attacks from the left, smiling behind his mask the blond begins to dodge his assailants attacks but that was proving a tad bit tricky even trying to counter was difficult. Their attacks were fluid and left almost no blind spots, he jumps onto a building running up it as they chase after. He tosses a kunai at them which they move apart creating a gap which the kunai flies through but then he's no where to be seen and before either of them can asses what happens he appears between them split kicking them. He watches as they both fall but manage to land safely with the help of the buildings, however before they can recover he attacks with one of his clones and is now on the offensive. He was lighting kick with his attacks but with the help of the sharingan Kakashi and Sasuke were easily maneuvering these attacks. Naruto swings at a right hook at Sasuke who ducks under it sweeping him down with a kick and slamming a fist down his gut before propelling him into the sky and then a chirping noise heard and in his hand lighting engulfs it, {Chidori} he yells as he leaps towards Naruto with speed but he isn't going down easy as Naruto spins mid air forming a sphere in his palms. The clash creates a mini explosion which almost blows away Kakashi and Tsunade but destroys the clone, Naruto jumps out of dust created by blast and lands on top of a building. Sasuke also appears standing as it clears the two staring down each other, Sasuke's mask shattered at the eyes whiles Naruto's hoodie is blasted to reveal his fox max with yellow hair.

'Damn, forgot how much that shit hurts' He looks down at the trio and catches a kunai that flies at him from behind but before he could recognize the tag on it, it explodes leaving him free falling until he's met with a kick from a Yugao right into the wall of a building before he can even regain his bearings his body is held in place by the shadow possession jutsu and he meets the grin of Shikamaru his old classmate. And then Sakura jumps out receiving a kickup boost by Yugao, pulls her hand back to ready her punch but before she could strike he disappears again into thin air this time appearing behind the original trio; Tsunade, Kakashi and Sasuke. "Behind you!" Shikamaru yells as Naruto throws another kunai with a tag towards them, it lands just infront of them engulfing the little radius around them with a seal making them immobile. "Any of you try it and Boom" he states as he gasps for air, the rest of them stay put watching the masked man. Naruto puts his guard down and is immediately grapped by what seems to be white hair tying up his fingers he tries his old tricks but is unable to change his location as he keeps returning to the same place. Looking below him he sees all his kunai at his feet and he sees a huge figure walking towards him and his arm a swirling blue sphere which is then drilled into his gut knocking him unconscious.

"Perfect timing master jarayia" Kakashi barely gets out as sweat drops down his face. The kunai is ripped from the ground and the tag is torn disabling the jutsu. Kakashi and Sasuke collapse onto the ground and Sakura rushes to the two of them and she and Tsunade give medical attention, "Seems like a war brook lose… and to imagine one person defeated so many high level anbu's as well as holding his own against Kakashi and Sasuke" Ino spoke terrified as she looked at the culprit who lay down on the ground.

"What's more scary is they're all just knocked out…meaning he held back" Neji stated as he appeared from a rooftop with Hinata, Lee, tenten and Kiba beside him. "really now" jarayia says as he looks at the battle field with various anbu's scattered around, 'very impressive' he says to himself looking down at the culprit, he draws closer to him in an attempt to unmask but as soon as he stares into the mask a pair of deep crimson slits stare back at him and gust of chakra is released. Menacing cackling can be heard as Naruto pulls himself up with a wide grin, immediately he leaps he forms a dent in the ground as in a split second he appears in the center of the sky. Weaving a few handsigns a huge fox head appears to surround the blond and gives a cackling smile, the crew below stands in awe as a dark purple sphere is formed in the air. Before he can fire it he's engulfed in sand however the sand is no match for the blond as the sphere easily bypasses it heads down towards the event center, everyone there could only watch but before the sphere can hit "Kamui" A whirlpool like rip in the sky slowly but effectively swallowed it up and everyone turned to look at Kakashi; who's sharingan eye was bleeding profusely and finally collapsed from exhaustion. Naruto still in a rage watches from below before he witnesses a red eye crow fly beside him and whisper one word to him "sleep" He falls to the ground in and a matter of seconds has several chakra blocking tags placed on him, putting him down for good.

Jarayia walks towards the blond just as Gaara and his siblings land beside him, "I've felt this before….is it…" He doesn't respond as he sees a nod from the great Toad stage. "Take good care of our old friend….they'll be coming soon" a voice tells them, a voice much recognizable to Sasuke than everyone else. "Itachi! Show yourself, you coward" Itachi laughs at his brother demands, "I have better things to do Sasuke"

"Old friend? What are you talking about?" Yugao stated into the distance, taking the attention from Sasuke. "Unmask him and see for yourself, I'll be off now" suddenly everyone surrounded the body of the assailant, Sasuke walks up to the body and kneels beside it during this time Jarayia already knowing who it was since he threw that first attack walked away from the group and stared at his student's sculpture from the ground, "Sorry, Minato I messed up…." He whispered. Gasps could be heard from the group by him and mostly noticeable a roar of anger and frustration, no, it was pain from sasuke.
