Chapter 196: I Just Don't Give A…

Tayuya wished this was over, she shouldn't have had a grudge rematch, now that she thought about even if the Cursed Seal did give her extra power she sucked at hand to hand stuff.

But she had to fight her…

She couldn't wait until the day was over.

"If you're done staring let me explain." Muttered Tayuya.

"What?" asked Sakura.

"You see this the second form of the cursed seal." Explained Tayuya, "You're little boy friend is undergoing the processes now as we speak."

"What?" asked Sakura.

"What a sore subject?" Asked Tayuya, trying to sound mocking as possible, but ended up sounding bored.

"I don't believe it." Said Nami.

"We have the one that doesn't care." Said Sakura.

"Fuck off." Muttered Tayuya, "But I am serious about the idiot, he is getting the second level of the seal."

"Are you serious?" asked Sakura.

"He's an idiot." Said Tayuya, "He's just going to find that his brother is too powerful. Not even Orochimaru can fight him."

"Wait… Orochimaru fought Sasuke's brother?" asked Sakura.

"Yeah, and he got fucked up, I think one of the reasons why he wants Sasuke is some sort of twisted revenge." Muttered Tayuya.

"Are we going to fight." Said Sakura.

"Fine, let's finish this." Muttered Tayuya.

Sakura ran towards Tayuya, but Tayuya dodged. Sakura tried to punched to her but she once again dodged.

"You won't win…" said Tayuya in a bored tone.

This only made Sakura sweat drop.

"Aren't you going to take this fight seriously?" asked Sakura.

"I already know the outcome, I may have my abilities heightened. But you already seen my strongest things." She said, "If I don't make it look like I'm fighting your seriously I would get in trouble."

"So you don't want to half ass it?" asked Nami.

"Yeah." Muttered Tayuya.

"But you're half assing it." Said Sakura with a sweat drop.

"Fuck off." Muttered Tayuya.

Meanwhile on the ship, Kimimaro scowled, the Going Merry was still following them. All of them had failed.

That was when the casket began to shake.

"So it looks like it begins." Said Kimimaro.

Back on Tayuya's boat.

"Nami let me handle it." Said Sakura.

"Okay." Sighed Nami.

"You won't win, you won't beat me, blah, blah, blah…" said Tayuya.

"Okay! Now you're really phoning it in." said Sakura with a sweat drop.

Sakura ran over to Tayuya, and punched her in the face, hard!

Tayuya was sent flying into the mast of the boat.

"The fuck!" yelled Tayuya getting up.

"What?" asked Sakura, "I'm going to take this seriously… even if you're not."

"Yeah, I figured but it still hurt." Muttered Tayuya rubbing her cheek.

That was when Sakura kicked her in the face.

"Ow! That fucking hurt!" yelled Tayuya.

"Seriously? You're complaining?" asked Sakura.

"I'm not complaining, I'm bitching." Said Tayuya.

"I don't think there's a difference." Said Sakura with a sweat drop.

"Whatever…" muttered Tayuya.

Sakura lightly punched her in the face. Granted for her "lightly" meant a really hard hit form a normal person.

"So now you're going easy on name?" asked Tayuya.

"I'm tired of your bitching." Said Sakura.

"Wouldn't you not going easy me make the bitching go on longer?" asked Tayuya.

"Um… maybe…" said Sakura.

"Then punch me harder next time!" yelled Tayuya.

"Do you want me to beat you up?" asked Sakura.

"No… I have to fight for Lord Orochimaru's sake." Said Tayuya in a really bored tone.

"You really think I'd believe you like that?" asked Sakura.

"Just beat me up already so we all can be though with it." Said Tayuya.

Nami sighed, she should have stayed on the ship.

Back with Kimimaro casket exploded and Sasuke emerged in the second seal only for it to go down and him laughing manically.

"So I see you're awake." Said Kimimaro.

"Yeah, I am." Muttered Sasuke.

"I need your help." Said Kimimaro.

"What with?" asked Sasuke.

Kimimaro pointed to the Going Merry, which was still trailing them.

"How long have they been following you?" asked Sasuke.

"Since we left the island." Said Kimimaro.

"Do you have a telescope?" asked Sasuke.

Kimimaro handed it him. He looked to see who was there, Robin, Gaara, Luffy, Naruto and Zoro.

A little voice in the back of Sasuke's mind told him, "If you try to fight anyone of them, your ass is going to get kicked."

However Sasuke ignored it, he had a power boost, he didn't need them anymore.

"I have a plan…" said Sasuke.

Kimimaro nodded…

Meanwhile back on Tayuya's boat. Sakura delivered a harsh punch, right when Tayuya's Seal came undone.

"You win." Said Tayuya laying on the deck.

"That… was a strange fight." Sighed Nami.

"I think you should tie me up…" said Tayuya, "Make it looked like you really beat me."

"I guess." Said Nami.

"By the way… if I were you… I'd rescue the poor bastard as soon as possible." Said Tayuya, "Because even if I work for him, Orochimaru is a sick fuck."

"What do you mean?" asked Sakura.

"Did That Crazy Bitch ever mentioned about Orochimaru's preferences…" said Tayuya.

"Can we change the subject." Said Nami, "Because I don't like where this is going."

"Whatever…" muttered Tayuya.

And so Tayuya was defeated, wasn't that hard to… she sort of gave up.

On the Going Merry, Naruto continued to do watch.

Naruto's eye's widened, "Hey! The ship stopped."

"What?" asked Luffy.

"No he's right." Said Robin, "It stopped."

"Kit I have a very bad feeling about this." Said Kyubi.

"Kimimaro is coming." Said Gaara.

"So you know him too." Said Zoro.

The going Merry got to the ship and stopped. That was when Kimimaro jumped unto the ship.

"So Zoro it has been a long time." Said Kimimaro.

Zoro glared at him.

"I am sorry that Lord Orochimaru has turned you down." Said Kimimaro.

"If he had offered me I would have turned him down." Said Zoro reaching for his swords.

Naruto jumped down.

"All right! Five on one"! he yelled.

"No wait!" said Kyubi, "I have a better plan!"

"What?" asked Naruto.

"Our goal is drag Sasuke back kicking and screaming, right?" asked Kyubi.

"Yeah." Said Naruto.

"Why have all five of you fight him, when at least one of you should go drag him back here." Said Kyubi.

"Okay, I get it." Said Naruto, he turned to Luffy, "I think at least one of us should go get Sasuke."

"Okay." Said Luffy.

Then they turned to where Zoro was standing, to find he was gone. They saw Zoro was already jumping on the ship.

"You two should go help him." Said Robin, "I don't know if he will be able to get Sasuke back on his own."

"Why because he has no sense of direction?" asked Luffy.

"Come on, let's go." Said Naruto.

He and Luffy went to follow Zoro.

"No you won't!" shouted Kimimaro.

He launched one of his bones at Naruto, but Gaara caught it using his sand.

"Sorry but the two of us are your opponents." Said Robin.

Kimimaro scowled then got ready for the fight.

And Sasuke emerged, but will be it be so easy for Zoro, Luffy and Naruto to drag him back, and will Robin and Gaara have an easy fight, only time will tell.

Next Time: Gaara and Robin face off against Kimimoro, will they be able to defeat him? Meanwhile Zoro, Naruto and Luffy chase after Sasuke though out the ship, will they be able to find him or will he play off their lack of a sense of a direction? Find out next time!
