I do not own Bleach or Naruto.
Yamanaka District
10:30 A.M. Ichigo and Rock Lee fight each other in hand to hand combat. Ichigo dodges an incoming right jab aimed at his left check by a few inches. Ichigo throws a right hook at Lee hitting him in the face and causing Lee to stagger back a bit holding his face.
" Man you're tough.. that punch should of took you down " Ichigo stated to Lee as he shakes his hand which was sprained punching Lee.
" I must say, you got some skills but let's see how well you do against this punch " Lee stated as he goes to attack Ichigo with a right hook again but Ichigo sidestep and hits Lee in the gut with his left hand and then uses his right knee to hit Lee in jaw .
Lee throws 15 punches at Ichigo but Ichigo manages to block all of them . Ichigo then grabs Lee's right arm and throws him through a 50 foot tall tree. Ichigo then tries to hit Lee with a jumping kick but Lee moves out the way.
" Is that the best you can do ? " Ichigo asked mocking Lee.
" I see, so that's your skill level, what a disappointment . Your Taijutsu skills are only average at best. You would be far more effective if you used your Zanpakutō " Lee said to Ichigo.
" Please, as if i need to. You just happened to be a bit tougher than i though but i can still beat you in Taijutsu " Ichigo replied in an arrogant tone as he goes to punch Lee but he's kicked in the face by Lee "What the hell ? He got around my guard but how ? " Ichigo shocked to see himself in the air .
"Your punch was too slow , and that form of yours was sloppy. You can't hope to beat a Taijutsu master with a clumsy punch " Lee answered as he kicks Ichigo into the ground smashing him 2 feet deep.
" Shut up ! " Ichigo replied as he gets back up.
" Shinigami aren't very skilled in Taijutsu or at least the ones i fought, you be much better off using that Zanpakutō if you want a fair fight " Lee said to Ichigo.
" If you want to fight me using my Zanpakutō , then use a Ninjutsu or Genjutsu " Ichigo said to Lee.
" That's the thing, i don't know Ninjutsu or Genjutsu " Lee replied.
" You're joking right ? And you expect to fight me as an equal ? A Ninja who doesn't know Ninjutsu or Genjutsu would be like a Shinigami fighting without a Zanpakutō. Time to put you in your place Special Jōunin " Ichigo arrogantly taunted as he goes to take Lee with a punch but Lee kicks Ichigo in the stomach.
" Don't underestimate my skills, while i don't know Genjutsu or Ninjutsu, i specialize at Taijutsu " Lee replied as he chases Ichigo.
Ichigo tries to punch Lee but Lee blocks with his right hand and gets kicked in the stomach. Lee hits Ichigo in the stomach with his left elbow . Lee then uses Shunshin to appear behind Ichigo.
" He's so fast ! " Ichigo said to himself as he tires to use his right hand to backhand Lee but Lee is right in front of him.
" Forget trying to hit me with your fist, i already know your fighting style. Your punches are strong but you lack the skill to beat me with Taijutsu alone. While you do have natural talent at fighting, you don't have the experience or training to use it effectively " Lee said to Ichigo.
" What's your point ? My punches can still hurt you and given you have no Ninjutsu or Genjutsu, you can't increase your strength exponentially. You're fighting me at full power which means using my Zanpakutō on you is overkill " Ichigo stated as he comes at Lee.
Ichigo comes at Lee with a right hook but Lee moves left to avoid the punch and dodges a knee strike aimed at him. Lee hits Ichigo with an elbow strike to the chin and then does 20 rapid punches at his abdomen to send him flying 20 feet away.
" Your pretty skilled in combat but trying to fight a Taijutsu master with average Taijutsu skills is like trying to fight with one arm against a giant squid " Lee stated as he goes to attack Ichigo kicking him into a 5 story building.
" Impossible, just how good is this guy ? He deflected my blows like they were nothing and i didn't see him last attack coming. I know i can hit him and damage him with my punches and were around equal in power so how is he beating me so easily ? Could he be an even better master of hand to hand combat than Tatsuki ? She's the only person who's ever defeated me in a fistfight " Ichigo said to himself .
" You seem to have some experience but you don't train everyday of your life " Lee replied as goes to kick Ichigo but Ichigo grabs him and throws him down and punches Lee in the stomach.
" So much for that ! " Ichigo said to Lee as he stands up and goes to walk away nut Lee gets back up to fight again.
" Perhaps you need a demonstration of what i mean by training " Lee replied as he goes on top of a 50 foot rock and removes the weights.
" Weights ? How can he move so fast with weights on his feet " Ichigo said to himself as he sees weights drop to the ground creating a shockwave that leaves a 5 foot deep crater in the ground.
" Now i can move much easier ! " Lee stated.
" Impossible, how do you move with such heavy weights ? " Ichigo asked shocked to see him.
" Because i trained myself everyday to achieve the level of power you see here " Lee answered as he then disappears and reappears behind Ichigo moving at 1126.4 ft/sec (768 MPH).
" What the hell ? " Ichigo said to himself as he is punched in the face by Lee .
Ichigo tries to track Lee's movements but he's hit in the stomach. Ichigo barely blocks the first strike, Lee then appears him and delivers a roundhouse kick that Ichigo barely escaped using Shunpo, then he is almost hit with a punch then Lee appears behind him and delivers a devastating punch knocking Ichigo aside 150 feet into a 3 story building. Rock Lee throws a punch which Ichigo barely blocked with his right forearm. Rock Lee moves so fast Ichigo can barely block the second flying kick . Ichigo almost lost his head to a knife edge chop but he blocks with his Shikai.
" So you finally decided to use your Zanpakutō ? " Lee said to Ichigo.
" There's no helping it ! I'll fight for real this time " Ichigo replied as he holds his Shikai with his right hand and his Shikai unwraps the bandages around it and releases an high amount of spiritual power that engulfs everything within a 100 foot radius in blue light and a dust cloud wave.
" I see, so this is your power. Not bad and judging by that shape of your sword and that Chakra, that must be your Shikai " Lee asked Ichigo.
" Yeah how you guessed ? " Ichigo asked.
" I fought a Shinigami before and seen there powers, i know all about a Shinigami's power " Lee answered.
" Is that so ? " Ichigo asked .
" Funny thing is that you didn't say the name of your Zanpakutō or your release command " Lee questioned.
" Well that's because my Zanpakutō is a full-time released form type because of my vast but uncontrollable spiritual energy upon generation of it, it's been in this state since i first got it " Ichigo explained to Lee .
" I see, what is it's name ? " Lee asked.
" The name of my Zanpakutō is Zangetsu (斬月, Slaying Moon) " Ichigo answered as he holds the massive 1.75 meter ( 5'9 " ) sword over his shoulders.
" I see, so what is your name stranger ? " Lee asked.
" The name is Ichigo Kurosaki, i'm the one who's going to beat your ass " Ichigo replied.
" I see, what squad you come from ? " Lee asked.
" I'm a Substitute Shinigami, i have no squad " Ichigo answered.
" I'm from Team Gai, the best team in Konoha and i'll show you why Gai sensei values me so much " Lee replied as he as he unrolls his bandage and releases energy around him.
At the same time
Third Training Ground
10:30 A.M. Naruto faces off with Soifon who stands there looking at her.
" So you guys came after me again ? " Naruto asked.
" Of course we did, we even attacked your village just to lure you out here and it seemed it worked well for us " Soifon replied.
" You bastards ! You're going to pay for attacking this village " Naruto shouted as he charges at Soifon while Soifon stands there.
" You fool ! " Soifon replied as she kicks Naruto in the face knocking him to the ground and steps on Naruto chest.
" ARRGH ! How are you so fast ? " Naruto shouted in pain as Soifon steps on his chest.
" It's like i said earlier human ,i'm on far higher league than that Captain you fought. I'm much faster than him " Soifon replied with an arrogant smirk on her face but it's revealed to be a clone " What? "
" Rasengan (螺旋丸Spiralling Sphere )" Naruto chanted as he hits Soifon down and it creates a massive explosion destroying everything within 600 foot radius.
" Not a bad technique but i'm afraid i have seen it one to many times before " Soifon replied as it's revealed she used Shunpo to move at 6,000 ft/sec(4,090 MPH) and hits him with a sealing tag on his back.
" What the hell ? " Naruto asked as he has the seal on his back.
" That would make sure that your Bijuu doesn't emerge out of you " Soifon explained to Naruto.
" What do you mean ? " Naruto asked.
" Let's face it kid, the only reason you were able to even hold your own against Byakuya was because you activated you Bijuu powers. You're nothing but a weak ass Genin without your Hollow powers " Soifon explained to Naruto.
" You think i need it to beat you ? If anything, you done me a huge favor restricting me of that nuisance Bijuu, now i can fight you with my own power " Naruto replied as he gets back up to fight Soifon.
" Hahaha, you seriously think you can fight me ? Get real , you're not even close to matching my power Genin " Soifon arrogantly laughed as she stabs her sword into the ground as Naruto is surrounded by 20 Onmitsukdō members .
" What's going on ? " Naruto asked.
" It's my men, these are real Ninjas unlike you ! They are Onmitsukidō agents . Highly trained fighters who specialize at hand to hand combat. Ordinarily these guys would execute anyone on command but this is different, we can't afford to release that ticking time bomb out your body the old fashion way, so we're going to capture you and bring you to the Soul Society by now " Soifon explained to Naruto.
" Whatever, bring it on bitch ! " Naruto replied.
" Guys, bring him down ! " Soifon commanded as the guards come at Naruto.
A Ninja goes to punch Naruto but Naruto easily blocks his punch with his right forearm and knees the guy in the gut knocking him out. Naruto punches a second Ninja with a left hook , he hits a third one with a powerful kick , he takes out two Ninja behind him with a double elbow strike and take down 5 with a sweeping kick.
" You idiot's , take him out ,use deadly force but make sure he's still alive " Soifon said to the Ninjas.
" Yes Captain ! " said all the Ninjas as the all come at Naruto with their swords drawn out .
" Please, those weak attacks won't even work on me " Naruto arrogantly replied as he goes to attack the 10 remaining Ninjas.
One of them aim for Naruto's arm but Naruto punches his sword shattering it to bits . Naruto takes out one guy with a right hook to his face then takes out another guy with a right kick to the face. Two thugs come at Naruto with kunai but Naruto dodges it and does a handstand kick hitting both of them. Naruto uses his knee to take out the 5th guy. Naruto then does a spinning kick to take out 4 more Ninjas and takes the rest out with flashstep.
" I see, you have some skills to take out that many Onmitsukidō members at once despite being a Genin however i will show you the difference between a seated officer and a Captain " Soifon said to Naruto as she goes to attack Naruto.
Soifon uses Shunpo to punch Naruto in the face, but Naruto catches it with his open palm.
" Is that all ? " Naruto asked holding back her punch.
" Impossible, how did you block my punch ? " Soifon asked shocked to see her punch blocked so easily.
" It's like i said earlier, i don't need my Bijuu to fight against Captains anymore " Naruto answered as he goes to kick Soifon in the face knocking her back 20 feet away.
" You brat ! " Soifon shouted as she uses Shunpo to do a dropkick on his back but Naruto dodges the kick and uses Shunshin to try kicking Soifon but Soifon dodges the attacks.
Soifon tires to do a double palm strike on Naruto's chest but Naruto grabs both her hands and knees her in stomach and then goes to uppercut Soifon but Soifon jumps up and kicks him in the jaw, elbows him the stomach, stomps on his temple and kicks him at the back of the falls to the ground after taking a heavy beating and is unable to move.
" Bitch ! " Naruto shouted.
" Not bad but still nowhere near my level of skill , time to end this ! Bakudō # 4. Hainawa (這縄, Crawling Rope) " Soifon chanted as she uses binding Kidō to stun him but it was a clone as well.
" Where you're looking at ? " Naruto asked as he kicks Soifon in the face with his right foot sending her flying 20 feet but Soifon does a handstand and recovers then comes back at Naruto.
Soifon and him clash attacks 8 times, Naruto attempts to kick her in the face but Soifon counters his attack.
" Takigoi (滝鯉, Waterfall Carp) " Soifon shouted as she blocks Naruto's kick and traps against her own forearm and blocks the other foot with her own foot and kicks Naruto in the face sending him flying but Naruto recovers and wall jumps off a tree 300 feet away .
" Damn you hit hard, you're as tough as that Captain was with his Shikai " Naruto said to Soifon
" I'm the second best master of Hakuda , that stupid fuck Asuma learned it the hard way when i killed him" Soifon stated.
" What are you talking about ? " Naruto asked.
" I killed a Jōunin with nothing but my Shikai , think of this way kid. What thinks you have a chance against me ? " Soifon asked as she taunted Naruto.
" I may not be as close to Asuma sensei as Shikamaru but i'll be sure to help Shikamaru get his revenge on you. My real problem is that you attack my friends and this village. I'll make sure you guys don't prevail and make sure that Asuma sensei didn't die in vain . Draw your Zanpakutō " Naruto said to Soifon as he takes out a kunai.
" Please, i won't even need my Zanpakutō against the likes of you " Soifon replied as she takes her sword and puts it back in it's sheathe.
1 mile north of Kurenai's location
Kakashi and Gai see the burning flames creating pink clouds and small tornadoes around the area as petals fall down.
" Looks like we got a serious problem here " Kakashi stated.
" Looks like it. Kurenai used the Akaiha (赤い刃 Red Blade ) " Gai said to Kakashi.
" It contains a special poison which slows down your senses and reaction time making it harder to break out the Genjutsu. She must of been in a very tight spot to put that sword out . She also detonated her Kurenai Hanano Chinomori Genjutsu barrier and as a result, released this hallucination poison in case her opponent were to survive the blast somehow " Kakashi explained to Gai.
" Not to mention these flames, the opponent she clashed with must of used some form of fire or plasma like attack to defeat her creating these flames " Gai stated.
" Combined with the wind sprouts, it's going to be tough to get past this mess " Kakashi replied.
Suddenly Katsuyu appears to talk with them.
" There you two are ! " Katsuyu said to them.
" Katsuyu,what's going on here ? " Kakashi asked.
" Kurenai stuck out of the shelter and fought this Shinigami " Katsuyu answered.
" How did she sneak out ? Where the hell is Asuma ? " Gai asked.
" That's the thing, he's dead ! " Katsuyu coldly replied.
" What ? " Kakashi questioned shocked to hear this.
" She stuck out and attempted to kill the person responsible but that person fled and this other Shinigami came to fight her and defeat her " Katsuyu explained to Kakashi.
" Where's the person who killed Asuma? " Kakashi asked.
" She's fighting Naruto as we speak " Katsuyu answered.
" What, we got to stop her ! " Gai shouted only to be stopped by Kakashi.
" Naruto can handle himself, let's worry about saving Kurenai first " Kakashi said to Gai.
" Right ! " Gai replied.
" Allow me to act as your shield against the flames and mist " Katsuyu said to them as she channels her Chakra through them.
" Okay, let's go ! " Kakashi replied as both him and Gai go to save Kurenai.
Meanwhile at South Konoha
Tsunade arrives at the heavily toxicifeld region where Shizune is at near death . She goes to grab Shizune who is seriously injured in her fight with Mayuri. Shizune is bleeding badly but is still alive by a thread.
" Shizune, no please get up " Tsunade said to herself as she tries to maintain her calm.
" Is she ... dead ? " Katsuyu asked.
" No... No .. not this again ! " Tsunade shouted as she struggles to maintain her cool as she thinks back to her past.
26 years ago
Tsunade's pov
It was a dark raining night when i found Dan, my lover on the battlefield dying . Me and my squad focused on trying to heal Dan but it was useless effort. Dan lost all his blood and all his internal organs were seriously injured.
" Tsunade, i don't want to die...I still have alot of things to do... " Dan said to me as i struggle to heal his wounds in a futile endeavor.
" Shut up , please stop talking ! " i said to him.
His injuries were terrible. His Kidneys were ruptured. His lungs damaged beyond repair and his heart is barely intact. His stomach was also ruptured and his stomach fluids already contaminated with his stopping the bleeding wasn't enough to save him.
" I don't want to die ! " Dan said to me.
" Don't worry, i stopped the bleeding . You're okay, now . You'll make it through this, Dan " I said to him as his blood covered my face .
" I'm glad... " he said to me as life started to leave his eyes.
" Hang in there , Dan ! Damn it, stop coming out ! " I shouted vainly as more blood came out of his chest and abdominal cavity " Stop! Stop!stop,stop,stop,stop , stop ... " i shouted out of sheer desperation until it was too late, Dan was no more.
" Stop , he's already dead ! " one of the grunts said to me as i stopped to see my bloody hands.
My lover of 7 years was gone, dead in a bloody mess.
Present day
3rd person pov
Tsunade holds on to Shizune with tears in her eyes trying to hold on to her nearly naked body
" Don't die on me Shizune... Don't die " Tsunade cried as she clenches on to her body but Shizune grabs her.
" Don't worry about me ...i'm still alive though pretty banged up " Shizune said to Tsunade.
" You injures are healed ! " Tsunade asked.
" I used that Jutsu Kabuto used to heal himself from Naruto's Rasengan a moment before the blast hit me however i lost too much blood and i can't move. I'm all out of Chakra " Shizune said to Tsunade.
" Amazing how you were able to use it in just one glance . Had not for that Jutsu, you would of been like your uncle " Tsunade stated.
" Between that and using my Poison release Jutsu, i'm all out of Chakra. Using that Kekkai Genkai takes up too much Chakra , i was barely able to take him down. I was lucky i had the element of surprise otherwise, i wouldn't had won " Shizune explained to Tsunade.
" Using that Kekkai Genkai damages your body if you overuse it Shizune, you need to be more careful " Tsunade said to Shizune.
" I had no other choice, that man would of skewered me or done worse if i hadn't used it " Shizune stated.
" You'll be out of helping anyone for an hour. I can't restore your Chakra hastily otherwise you might die from the very poison you contain in your body, after i restore the blood flow in your body, you need at least an hour of rest " Tsunade said to Shizune.
" Who will heal the patients ? " Shizune asked.
" Ino would do fine as well as Hana and Sakura " Tsunade answered as she picks up Shizune and carries her away walking through the reddish purple gunk around them.
" How aren't you affected by the poison around here ? " Shizune asked.
" Isn't it obvious. I developed a cure to your poison a long time ago and using Chakra around my skin shields me from any foreign poisons like this red goo everywhere " Tsunade explained to Shizune.
" I wonder what Sakura is up to right now ? " Shizune asked as Tsunade walks her to safety.
Meanwhile at the Uchiha District
Sakura replied as she dashes at Chad with a powerful punch but Chad dodges as the punch hits a 3 story building and levels the building with a single punch.
" She's strong ,if i'm hit, i'm done for ! " Chad said to himself.
" Take this ! " Sakura shouted as she throws kunai at Chad but Chad dodges the kunai and then jumps to punch Sakura and hits her with his unarmored right arm pushing back Sakura 10 feet back but she barely takes any damage.
" You think that would be enough to kill me ? Think again " Sakura said to Chad .
" Then i would try even harder ! " Chad replied as she uses a right haymaker but Sakura blocks with her right forearm .
" You need to do better than that ! " Sakura replied as she goes to punch him with a jumping punch but Chad dodges and it causes a 20 foot implosion wave leveling behind a 5 foot deep, 1 foot diameter crater.
" Then how about this ? " Chad shouted as he throws a rock at her but Sakura dodges the rock and does a jump kick but Chad ducks over the kick. Chad is backed into the wall when Sakura goes for a right hook which easily shatters a 3 story building .
" Your strength is impressive, however let's see if you can handle this " Chad said to Sakura as he uses a right body blow to hit Sakura and push her back 5 feet.
" That was a good punch ! " Sakura said to Chad.
" Thanks, i'm only getting started ! " Chad replied as he picks up a telephone pole and goes to hit Sakura.
" I see, you have great strength however... " Sakura said to Chad as she pulls out kunai to cut the telephone pole in half " Using brute strength isn't enough against me " Sakura stated as she holds the kunai in her hand and then throws it at Chad but Chad dodges it by a few inches.
Sakura then comes at him with a hammerfist which nearly takes Chad's head off with the swipe and creates a 5 foot fissure within the ground . Chad ducks down to avoid the strike but Sakura uses a sweep kick to try catching Chad and then uses axe kick to try smashing Chad bout Chad does a roll to dodge the strike and move 20 feet away. Sakura throws the kunai knife at Chad while he's still on the ground but Chad dodges the kunai and appear behind Sakura and punches him from behind.
" Not bad but not good enough ! " Sakura stated revealing to be a clone as the real Sakura comes at him with a punch . Chad dodges the punch by only a few feet when it creates a 10 foot diameter, 3 foot deep hole in the 5 story building .
" That was too close for comfort ! " Chad thought to himself . Sakura then comes at him and grabs him and throws Chad 30 feet through the same 5 story building with violent force . Chad is within the kitchen where he sees Sakura throw a kunai knife at him.
" Take this ! " Sakura shouted as she throws 3 kunai at Chad but Chad uses a fridge to block the kunai and throws it at Sakura but Sakura punches the fridge in half with her barefist and punches Chad in the stomach punching him through the building and causing the building they are fighting in to collapse.
" You can't defeat me. I was trained by the Hokage herself " Sakura replied as Chad wipes off the dust covering his body .
" Damn, i thought i could've handle this without transforming my arm but i guess have to... " Chad stated as he charges up Reiatsu in his hand.
" You're finished ! " Sakura shouted as she goes to punch Chad with a finishing blow and an implosion wave is created from the punch engulfing everything within a 100 foot radius.
Sakura's right arm is gone from the punch and sent flying 20 feet away. He covers his right arm all the way up to his shoulder in a liquid which then solidifies into a form of armor. The shoulder fans out a bit into an upward extension parallel to his height. It has an indentation at the top in the middle of the extension stopping just where his shoulder begins separating the upward extension into two. There are two wing-like protrusions on either side of his wrist. The arm is black with a dark magenta stripe running down the middle of the arm tapering down towards a point that stops at the wrist. The dark magenta strip is outlined by a thin white line. These patterns are both on the top as well as the underside of his arm.
" Brazo Derecha de Gigante ( Spanish for Right Arm of the Giant ) " Chad chanted as he stands with spiritual energy glowing from his body .
" I see, so that's your real power ? " Sakura said to Chad as she holds onto her right arm socket .
" Now let me show you my level of skill ! " Chad stated as he comes right at Sakura with his strength.
Sakura tries to hit him with a strong punch but Chad blocks her punch with his right forearm with ease. Chad hits her with a shoulder rush punch slamming her through a 3 story building
" Damn, his attacks have gotten stronger ! " Sakura stated to herself as Chad dashes towards her and punches her left shoulder with a right hook dislocating her arm.
" You're not quite strong enough to fight me without your arms " Chad asked her as he goes to attack Sakura.
" I won't let you ! " Sakura replied as she throws 6 shuriken at Chad but Chad easily blocks with his right forearm " Impossible, not even a starch ! " Sakura said to herself shocked to see Chad unharmed.
" Is that the best you got ? Take this ! Sacador Targeta( Spanish for Punch Blast ) " Chad chanted as he shoots a large blue wave of energy at Sakura creating a 50 foot radius explosion and sending Sakura flying 20 feet to the ground with 3rd degree burns all over his body. " That took care of her ! " Chad stated.
But suddenly Sakura gets back up from the blast with burns on her arm and blood coming out her stomach and body.
" I must say, that hurt alot . You're very strong ..." Sakura stated as she surrounds herself with an blueish Green Chakra wounds heal up and her body has no more cuts on it and she regrows her arm.
" It can't be, her wounds have fully healed ! Impossible only a master healer could heal from that" Chad stated.
" As i was saying, you can't defeat me as long as i can heal myself " Sakura stated.
" She healed a seemingly fatal injury effortlessly . Regardless , I'll just have to keep cutting her until she is exhausted of Chakra " Chad said to himself as he goes to punch Sakura with a jump punch but Sakura easily holds back his right arm with her left fist " What ? " Chad stated with shock as she is thrown 30 feet away.
" Ōkashō (桜花衝 Cherry Blossom Clash) " Sakura chanted as she goes to punch Chad but Chad dodges the strike and Sakura levels everything within a 300 foot radius leveling 10 buildings within the strike zone leveling behind a 50 foot diameter , 10 foot deep crater with the punch producing the force of a 12 Ton TNT bomb.
" Damn, he attack power increased drastically , i must be more careful about this " Chad said to himself.
Meanwhile 1 mile north of Squad 4's campground
Momo and Nanao are being carried away by Squad 4 medics wearing hazmat suits. They are under paralysis.
" The poison has gotten so bad that it's paralyzed us in our tracks" Momo said to Nanao as she is carried away by 2 medics.
" Must be the damn rainfall ! " Nanao stated as she is carried away by two medics as well wearing Hazmat suits.
" The troops have been postpone until we get protection against poison gas with South Konoha " Lemura said leading the backup forces while wearing a Hazmat suit.
Meanwhile at Squad 4's campground
Ukitake and Shunsui finish getting shots from Isane to cure them of the poison.
" Thanks for that, that was pretty fast ! " Ukitake said to Isane .
" Lucky for us, Unohana developed a cure for ever poison in her lifetime , even poison's like Mayuri's Konjiki Ashisogi Jizō . She said to keep at least 100 in stock in case of emergency and to have Hazmat suits as backup " Isane explained to them.
" Looks like Unohana always thinks one step ahead of everyone " Shunsui stated.
They then sense Byakuya's spiritual power in distress.
" Byakuya's in trouble ! " Shunsui said to Ukitake.
" Let me go after him, you check whether Mayuri and Nemu survived that explosion " Ukitake commanded.
" Very well then ! " Shunsui replied.
" Wait, take these ! " Isane said to them as she gives them gas masks.
" Thanks, we don't need to get sick again over there again " Ukitake replied as he puts his on and heads out the campground first.
Meanwhile at Konoha General Hospital
Jiraiya arrives at the hospital where he carries Yamato down from the main floor to the underground basement shelter where Ino is at .
" Jiraiya, you're back ! " Ino said to Jiraiya.
" Ino , wheres Sakura ? " Jiraiya asked.
" She's busy fighting off the enemies of the village " Ino answered.
" What about Tsunade ? " Yamato asked.
" She's busy trying to save Lady Shizune and Neji " Ino answered.
" Can you heal him Ino ? " Jiraiya asked.
" Okay then ! " Ino replied as she grabs Yamato and carries him to the hospital .
" I'll wait here until Tsunade returns to this hospital " Jiraiya said to Yamato.
" Fine then ! " Yamato replied.
Ino begins to go to work on Yamato healing his wounds from his battle with Tōusen.
" I wonder how you're doing out here Shikamaru ? " Ino asked.
Meanwhile at the Nara District
Uryū fights Shikamaru within the Nara district 200 meters outside Shikamaru's house. Shikamaru dodges 2 arrows from Uryū's bow and takes cover behind a tree.
" I see so my opponent uses an energy bow , Kakashi told me about a group of humans who can channel Chakra into bows but my question is why would one work with Shinigami ? " Uryū asked himself.
" My shot missed , this guy is fast . Just as Kisuke said these Shinobi are . The don't seem much like Hollows though, they seem much more like Quinces " Uryū thought to himself.
" Let's see how he would like this " Shikamaru thought to himself as he throws 3 kunais with exploding tags attach to them at Uryū but Uryū dodges the kunai and rolls over to avoid one of them and takes cover behind a 10 foot rock 200 feet east of Shikamaru.
" I see, my enemy fights using precision and timing instead of brute force. I couldn't have picked a better foe to face off against " Uryū thought to himself as he peeks over the corner to aim his bow at Shikamaru hiding behind a tree. Uryū shoots an arrow through the tree splitting the tree in half " Did i get him ? " Uryū asked himself only to see Shikamaru not at the tree .
Uryū then see a shadow approaching behind him. Uryū tries to move but he's caught in the shadow.
" Got you ! " Shikamaru said to Uryū from a distance. Shikamaru then pulls out a kunai and throws it at Uryū.
" Shit, i can't move my body ! " Uryū said to himself as me tries to break out of it as the kunai heads towards him but Uryū gets one arm free and shoots a arrow at the shadow breaking the tendril and allowing himself to dodge the arrow using Hirenkyaku.
Uryū then appears behind Shikamaru from behind to shoot an arrow at him but Shikamaru dodges the shout using Shunshin.
" Not bad, you manage to break out of my Shadow Possession Jutsu using your arrows, i assume you must be one of the Quinces i heard about " Shikamaru said to Uryū .
" I am, so how do you know of us ? " Uryū asked.
" I heard from an report from Kakashi based on a report he reverted from a Shinigami named Gin Ichimaru about what happened to your race . Guess that means the whole Sage of Six Paths story must be true as well as well as the Soul Society trying to capture the Bijuus to form the 10 Tails. My Question for you is why are you working for them ? " Shikamaru asked him.
" I never recalled saying i worked with them . Also i don't know about this Sage of Six Paths story nor really care about what happened between you and the Soul Society, i'm here to put an end this war " Uryū answered.
" Why are you helping the Soul Society, the same people who murdered your entire race ? " Shikamaru asked.
" I already told you,i not here for the Soul Society. I came here to help my friends and to stop you guys once and for all " Uryū replied.
" Deny it all you want but the result is the same , you're not going to get Naruto " Shikamaru stated.
" Very well then, if you want to play that way then i'll defeat you myself " Uryū replied .
" The allow me to introduce myself. My name is Shikamaru Nara, Special Jōunin of Konohagakure " Shikamaru said to Uryū .
" Uryū Ishida , Quincy of Karakura Town ! Ginrei Kojaku (銀嶺弧雀, Arc Sparrow of the Silver Peak) " Uryū chanted as he summons his bow Uryū has a new Quincy cross, this one resembling a pentacle, and a variant of his original bow.
" Is that a bow ? " Shikamaru asked.
" What kind of stupid question is that ? Do you really think i would use anything besides a bow ? This is my new spirit bow Ginrei Kojaku (銀嶺弧雀, Arc Sparrow of the Silver Peak) " Uryū answered.
" It's quite an unusual shape to it , i never seen a bow like that before " Shikamaru said to Uryū .
" Well let me show you the true abilities of my Ginrei Kojaku " Uryū replied as he shoots 1,200 arrows at Shikamaru.
" Shit ! " Shikamaru shouted as he uses Shunshin to go inside a 5 story building. The arrows rip through the building leveling it .
" My Ginrei Kojaku has the ability to fire up to 1,200 shots consecutively,you can't dodge all of them " Uryū explained to Shikamaru only to see Shikamaru is right behind him wielding a Tantō. Uryū uses his bow to block the Tantō strike.
" I must admit, that's an impressive technique but you have no attacks to defend up close , i'll stop you from firing those arrows " Shikamaru as he goes to attack Uryū but Uryū uses Shunshin to escape 300 feet away.
" Now i got you ! " Uryū said to Shikamaru as he aims at Shikamaru only to see a shadow tendril heading towards him . Uryū runs 550 meters to avoid the shadow until it stops reaching the area by 50 meters .
" Damn it, it reached it's limit ! " Shikamaru said to himself.
" Looks like your shadows have a limited range. You're abilities are the worst match against my own, i can hit targets as far as 1,800 m " Uryū explained to Shikamaru .
" Damn , he figured out my limits with my Shadow Possession Jutsu " Shikamaru said to himself .
" Now time to end this ! " Uryū chanted as he fires 1,200 shots per second as they all head to Shikamaru causing 5 buildings to get leveled in the crossfire 550 meters west of Uryū .
" ARRRGH ! " Shikamaru shouted in agony as he has holes all over his body but it was revealed to be a log.
" What ? It's a trap " Uryū said to himself as he sees a kunai heading towards him which explodes releasing smoke around him.
" Got you now ! Kage Nui (影縫いNinja Art: Shadow Stitching Jutsu) " Shikamaru chanted as he has the Shadow Tendril come out the ground surrounding Uryū with 12 tendrils which circle him. Uryū dodges nearly all of them but is grazed on the left shoulder from one of the tendrils.
" Damn, he's very intelligent. He used a substitution last second knowing i would shoot at him and then used a smoke bomb to distract me long enough to get a clean hit in. I really got my work cut out on this one " Uryū thought to himself.
" What a drag, i missed you . I really don't like dragging things out like this " Shikamaru whined.
" If that's the case ,tell me where Naruto is hiding " Uryū demanded.
" You'll have to defeat me first ! I need to defeat him and aid Kurenai sensei " Shikamaru thought to himself.
Meanwhile at the Financial district 2 miles northeast of Hitsugaya's location
Hisagi and his men are safe from the freezing blast of Hyōten Hyakkasō. The entire area is engulfed in 7 feet of snow that is -32°F blowing at 10 mph, enough to induce second degree frostbite in second. Hisagi and his forces are in an abandoned clothing store.
" Vice Captain, that was a close one ! " said one of the unseated officers.
" Everyone grab as much heavy clothes as possible " Hisagi commanded as he puts on a winter fur coat and a skull cap.
" Some of our men didn't make it Lieutenant " said one of the unseated officers.
" How many are here ? " Hisagi asked.
" 75 of them weren't fast enough to escape and 76 are severely injuries by second and third degree frostbite " one of the seated officers stated.
" Damn it, that means 75 are dead and 76 have been rendered useless in combat. Contact Squad 4 and have them send a backup medical squad here " Hisagi commanded.
" Vice Captain, we got only enough clothes her for 35 people to leave here prepared enough to face the freezing winds outside " one of the unseated officers said to him.
" Then we'll split the team up. The 24 Shinigami still here would defend this area and hold out this area for a while . Everyone else follow me to the town square " Hisagi commanded.
" Yes sir ! " all the unseated officers replied as they go into positions.
Hisagi and his men climb up the stairs and go on the rooftop and then leap off the building and head to the town square. They walk outside and see 75 Shinigami frozen in pace by the freezing winds a mile away , 176 Shinobi were also killed in the icy attack .
" They're like ice statues, it's a good thing we were nowhere nearby " Hisagi thought to himself as his men head to town square .
Meanwhile at the Hyōten Hyakkasō tower
Hitsugaya lies 800 feet from the 500 foot diameter,1 mile high ice pillar he created freezing Neji. He's still awake but is barely able to move his body.
" Damn it, i can't move my body ! " Hitsugaya said to himself as he struggles to move his body.
Out of a far distance, Sajin walks around using his Bankai to emit a flaming spiritual aura around it and him to come towards Hitsugaya. Sajin is barely resisting the flames that well . Everything within a mile radius next to the massive pillar of ice is encased in 30 feet of solid ice flowers that freezes to the touch with temperatures as cold as -196°C (-321°F), enough to cause irreversible fourth degree frostbite and death.
" Captain Hitsugaya, thank god your still alive " Sajin said to Hitsugaya.
" Why are you in Bankai state ? " Hitsugaya asked.
" If i wasn't, i would be an ice statue ! " Sajin replied.
" Damn it, my powers are still immature. I'll never be able to protect Momo if i end up freezing her. It's a good thing she didn't stand here or anywhere 1.25 miles of me " Hitsugaya said to Sajin.
" Allow me to carry you back. I can't stand this freezing cold storm you made " Sajin replied as he has his Giant armored samurai carry Hitsugaya and they both walk out of the frozen hell of Hyōten Hyakkasō . Meanwhile at the Ice tower, Neji is frozen mile high in the air. The snow launched him upwards and frozen him at the top.
" Hang in there Neji ! " Katsuyu said to herself as she struggles to keep Neji alive.
Meanwhile at Konoha park
Rangiku and Izuru defeated the Shinobi wave. 84 Shinigami were killed in battle in the park and 61 were injured but they killed 115 Shinobi and injured 128 Shinobi. The remaining 57 Shinobi were forced to retreat from the battlefield out west. 105 Shinigami are still combat active out of the 250 Shinigami in Izuru and Rangiku's squad.
" Looks like we managed to clear this area ! " Izuru said to Rangiku.
" It took awhile but thanks to Hitsugaya freezing the area and distracting the troops, we were able to take them out " Rangiku stated.
" At a price , Rangiku go without me ! " Izuru said to Rangiku .
" Why ? " Rangiku asked.
" I'm going to help with the healing of wounded troops here " Izuru answered as he goes to aid an wounded solider.
" Okay Izuru ! " Rangiku replied.
" Take 40 troops and head into downtown Konoha, i'll have the remaining 65 troops to carry the wounded back to Squad 4's campgrounds " Izuru said to Rangiku.
" Okay ! " Rangiku replied as she has her men follow her to the inner city.
Meanwhile at South Konoha
Nemu gets back up and walks around the poisonous mist. Being an Android , Nemu is immune to the poison at large and she easily walks through the mist. She then hears a voice from a distance.
" Nemu, are you there ? " a voice said from a distance as it's revealed to be Mayuri who has been reduced to a green puddle.
" Master ! " Nemu shouted as she goes to help him.
" Damn that woman, i can't believe i was forced to use my Jibaku Shinzō Genbaku (自爆心臓原爆Suicide Heart Bomb) combined with Nikushibuki (肉飛沫, Flesh Splash ). Now i lost a valuable experiment " Mayuri said to Nemu .
" Why did you use that ? " Nemu asked.
" I had no choice Nemu, i would've died from the poison eventually if i didn't use this last ditch attack " Mayuri explained to Nemu as he thinks to the past.
7 minutes ago
Mayuri's pov
Me and Shizune struggled with each other and it came down to the final clash of attacks.
" I see, i'll just take that eyesore out once and for all as well as you as well. Dokuton:Hitasa Sekkai Dokujin (毒遁, 浸さ切開毒刃 Poison Style:Immersed Poison Dissection Blade) " Shizune chanted as she glows her arm with purple Chakra leaking deadly poison everywhere and forms a purple Chakra blade on her right hand.
" What's that ? " i asked.
" It's my strongest Jutsu. It combines my poison Jutsu and Saikan Chūshutsu (細患抽出の術 Poison Extraction Jutsu ) with my Chakra dissection blade to create a fatal blade of poison which poisons anything i cut " Shizune explained to me.
" Impressive but can you stand up to this attack ? Hakaiashi Jizo (破壊脚Leg Destroying Jizo ) " i chanted as the caterpillar releases a red Reiatsu all over the caterpillar.
" What the hell ? " Shizune said shocked to see it increase it's power.
The caterpillar creates numerous blades all over the body like porcupine spines and the caterpillar gains butterfly wings . The halo over it's head breaks into two and becomes horns facing forward but maintain the bells and the caterpillar gains razor sharp teeth and fangs with boar like tusks at the front. It maintained the red cape and red liquid poison drip from the blades.
" Behold ! Hakaiashi Jizo (破壊脚Leg Destroying Jizo ) . It condenses all my Reiatsu in one final attack that combines raw power with my poison . As you already noticed my Bankai isn't suited for raw power however i have this attack just incase i fought a brute force fighter " i said to her.
" That's alot of Chakra your compressing there, still with such a huge Bankai, you can't hit me with that slow attack speed " Shizune taunted.
" Don't underestimate it's speed. Even without being faster than you, it 's large size would make it hard for you to escape. I never got to test this attack's power in live battle conditions . I was going to save it for that Quincy but things didn't work that well. Be warned, this attack has enough force and poison to kill even the mightiest of Captain level Shinigami in one shot " i explained to Shizune.
" What a coincidence, my Hitasa Sekkai Dokujin is that fatal as well " Shizune replied.
" Then let's test which attack is stronger ! " i shouted as his Bankai caterpillar charges at Shizune.
" Very well then ! " Shizune replied as she dashes forward with a purple poison mist coming at me .
Both attacks clash with each other creating a 1,000 foot radius implosion wave which levels 100 buildings within a 1,000 foot radius and spreads a deadly cloud of poison gas as far as 2,000 feet from the collision area.
Shizune emerges out of the poison smoke cloud with severe lacerations across her body. Mayuri's attack left Shizune's left leg amputated at knee level, her left arm was shredded, her right leg also badly injured and her intestines are spilling out her abdominal cavity . Her clothes are torn and she's almost naked from the attack.
" Damn, that was far too close for comfort " Shizune said to herself as she struggles to breath as blood leaks out her body. " Chikatsu Saisei (治活再生の術Regenerative Healing Jutsu ) " Shizune stated as she regrew her left arm, heals her right leg and her intestines are put back into her body in under 30 seconds.
Meanwhile at the east side of the fissure, i was still standing with my Bankai cut completely in half and with a massive gash across my chest extending from his right shoulder to his left thigh with my right arm amputated. The cut from Shizune's attack cut deep enough to touch the rib cage but not enough to cut through it .
" Damn that woman, she's going to pay for this ! " i said to myself staggering in pain as poison leaks from my body. I grabbed my last regenerative serum to heal the massive cut on his body and my right arm but i then suddenly feeling stinging paralysis " What ? It can't be , the poison is still spreading " i said shocked as i then vomits and struggled to move "ARRRGH !"
" Isn't it obvious ? The poison can't be stopped ! " Shizune said to me as she slowly walks towards me notably out of Chakra with a scalpel in her right hand. She's holding on to her stomach with her left arm while limping with her right leg while her newly restored leg was barely moving and she's struggling to breath.
" How are you still alive ? More importantly, how were you able to regenerate from such wounds even with low Chakra ? " i asked.
" Simple, i'm the second most powerful healer in the history of Konoha. I can regrow even damaged internal organs however that takes more Chakra than healing limbs. Doesn't matter anyways, you're going to die anyways " Shizune said to me .
" Damn it ! " i shouted.
" That attack would of killed any other Jōunin within minutes given you lacerated my internal organs and cut off both my limbs but as you can see, i can survive anything anyone can throw at me. The poison right now is eating away at your body, given you have resistance to poison, you would only last 2 more minutes before you die " Shizune explained to me .
" ARRGH ! " i shouted as i screamed in pain as my body starts to melt. My skin started to rot and turn purple and boil.
" Serves you right for all the people you harmed and killed " Shizune laughed as she watched me melt away.
" DAMN YOU ! " i shouted in agonizing pain as i had my severed Bankai glow with spiritual energy around me and the Bankai. My Bankai reverts into his sealed sword as his sealed Zanpakutō glows red and stabbed myself activating both Nikushibuki (肉飛沫, Flesh Splash ) and Jibaku Shinzō Genbaku (自爆心臓原爆Suicide Heart Bomb) .
" What are you doing ? " Shizune asked shocked to see me stab myself.
" If i'm going to die, i'm taking you with me , there's no escaping now. Once my Zanpakutō pierces my heart , it turns all my Reiatsu into a timebomb which i call Jibaku Shinzō Genbaku (自爆心臓原爆Suicide Heart Bomb) " i answered.
" Suicide Heart Bomb ? " Shizune asked.
" It's a last ditch resort i set up in case my death was inevitable . The blast radius is 1 km ( 3,300 feet ). You can't escape in your current condition "i explained to Shizune.
" Shit ! " Shizune shouted as she tries to run but falls on her face.
" It's such a shame it has to end like this but all good things must come to and end. Goodbye Shinobi, i won't be able to dissect you today " i replied as he glew with red energy.
2 seconds before the explosion , my body splattered and turned to a liquid. Everything in my body except the bomb that was once in my heart was liquidated . Had i not used Nikushibuki before activating my Jibaku Shinzō Genbaku , it would've been a real suicide.
Present day
3rd person pov
" Looks like you always stay one step ahead " Shunsui said to Mayuri as he approaches Mayuri and Nemu with a gas mask on.
" What brings you here Shunsui ? " Mayuri asked.
" Came to check if your still alive " Shunsui answered.
" I barely escaped alive there, i won't be able to fight again for 3 days in this state until i reform my body " Mayuri stated as Nemu uses a vacuum in her arm to absorb Mayuri and put in a container.
" Looks like you got things handled , Hitsugaya is also safely being transported by Captain Komamura and Byakuya would soon be escorted by Ukitake to safety . Nemu seeing you got things handled, i'll be on the way out , take care of you Captain " Shunsui said to Nemu.
" Okay Captain Kyōraku ! " Nemu replied as Shunsui leaves the area.
Meanwhile at East Konoha
Gai and Kakashi arrive where the battle took place between Byakuya and Kurenai. They see large crater with Kurenai is at the southern end of the crater . She's seriously injured from her battle with Byakuya and losing blood fast. Her chest was deeply cut narrowly missing the her lungs and heart and cut from right shoulder to left thigh. Byakuya also missed her uterus .
" Kurenai , Kurenai ! " Kakashi shouted.
" She's still alive but she's lost too much blood that she slipped into unconsciousness " Gai stated.
Kakashi then notices bloody footprints out northwest of Kurenai.
" Gai take Kurenai to the hospital right now " Kakashi said to Gai.
" Why me ? " Gai asked.
" You're faster than me right , besides i have to deal with an Captain " Kakashi answered.
" Right ! " Gai replied as he picks up Kurenai and carries her away.
Meanwhile 2,300 feet west of the crater. Byakuya struggles to walk from his battle with Kurenai.
Byakuya is still standing but he has a deep gash across his chest in addition to the injures he suffered earlier Byakuya struggles to walk but then falls down. The upper half of his Shihakushō is gone and most of his body is covered in blood.
" I can barely walk , i'm too injured ! " Byakuya said to himself as he struggles to get up . Kakashi then appears right in front of him.
" Looks like you're the one who hurt Kurenai, guess she gave you a hard time as expected but allow me to finish what she started " Kakashi stated as he charges at Byakuya with lightning around his arm " Now DIE! " Kakashi shouted as he uses his Lightning Blade but it's stopped by Ukitake's bare hand.
" That was a close one , you almost hit Byakuya with that Lightning Blade of yours . How about you fight an uninjured Captain Kakashi Hatake " Ukitake said to Kakashi as he pushes Kakashi back a few feet.
" Impossible, he deflected my Lightning Blade with just his bare hand. He must of went into his Bankai state already but where's his Zanpakutō ? " Kakashi asked himself.
" Byakuya , get out of here now ! " Ukitake stated.
" Okay ! " Byakuya replied as he struggles to walk away from the battlefield.
" I won't let you !" Kakashi replied as he goes to stop Byakuya but Ukitake swings his Zanpakutō. creating a dustwave blinding Kakashi and slashes Kakashi in half.
" You left your guard down ! " Ukitake stated as he is about to resheathe his Zanpakutō but it's a clone and Kakashi comes behind him to attack.
" Got you now ! " Kakashi stated as he goes to strike Ukitake with his Lightning Blade but Ukitake blocks with two swords against his Lightning blade.
" So you really are the Copy Cat Ninja Kakashi Hatake ? You're famous for defeating Child Prodigy Captain Hitsugaya ? It's an honor to meet a man of your caliber .Care to tell use where the Nine Tails is hiding ? " Ukitake asked.
" That's a silly question. We in Konoha never sell out a friend " Kakashi answered as he goes to attack Ukitake with his Lightning Blade.
" Ryōtō # 2 Kurosu Hone( 交差骨Cross Bone) " Ukitake chanted as he moves his blades towards Kakashi in a cross bone formation creating a shockwave leveling everything within a 1,000 foot radius Kakashi is pushed back 1,000 feet from the shockwave.
" What power, that's definitively a Bankai attack. I never seen a Shinigami wield two swords before. Maybe it's part of his Bankai " Kakashi said to himself as he gets back up to fight Ukitake.
Meanwhile 1,500 feet away, Byakuya manages to walk away from the battle site
" That fool, he has no clue what he's up against " Byakuya said to himself as he walks away.
3 miles west of Byakuya's location
Renji and Rukia head out to find Byakuya.
" Looks like Byakuya's still alive but barely " Renji said to Rukia.
" We need to hurry fast or Byakuya will die " Rukia replied as they rush to aid Byakuya.
Meanwhile at the Root underground base
Danzō notices the village is frozen and temperatures drop citywide.
" What on earth is going on outside ? " Danzō asked.
" Temperatures rapidly dropped from 77°F to 32 °F " Sai answered.
" It's September , how the hell did we get winter temperatures so early ? " Danzō asked.
" It was a Shinigami who did this , the one who defeated Gaara of the sands " said one of the Root members as he appears to talk with Danzō .
" I see, so what's the status report ? " Danzō asked.
" The Shinigami who defeated Gaara was a mere child and he exhausted his Chakra " the Root member answered.
" I see, so he's out of the picture. Good riddance " Danzō stated.
" So what do you hope to do with the Bijuu ? " Sai asked.
" We'll watch his progress for now , I'll wait until his life is in danger to make my move " Danzō answered smiling as he stares into his crystal ball to see Naruto fighting Soifon.
Third Training Ground
10:35 A.M. Soifon and Naruto continue their battle together . Naruto goes to kick Soifon but Soifon blocks the strike and goes for a right jab at Naruto but Naruto catches her fist with his bare hand.
Naruto goes to attack Soifon up close with his right hand but Soifon dodges the attack. Naruto goes for a series of fast punches and goes for a haymaker but Soifon blocks with her right foot and goes to kick Naruto with her right foot . Soifon blocks a devastating kick from Naruto and goes form a left palm strike but Naruto uses Shunshin to dodge the strike and go behind Soifon to do a elbow strike but Soifon jumps above the attack only to get hit with a punch that she narrowly blocks with her right forearm.
Naruto uses Shunshin behind her and tires another strike only for Soifon to barely block the attack . Naruto throws a few punches and lunges with his trench knife but Soifon blocks the attacks and avoids a roundhouse kick . Soifon is about to block a head on strike but Naruto uses Shunshin to kicks Soifon back several feet away but Soifon blocks the attack.
" Not bad, you're pretty strong. You're blow pack alot of power behind them " Soifon said to Naruto.
" Just who are you ? " Naruto asked.
" As if i would tell you, your undeserving to hear my name. You're just another low level man in my way " Soifon replied as she goes to attack him with a sword slash but Naruto blocks with his kunai.
" You're pretty arrogant to take me so lightly " Naruto stated.
" Please you must have so twisted notion that we're equal . Far from it boy, a man would never equal a woman just like a mere human will never equal a Shinigami " Soifon taunted with an arrogant tone .
" Shut up, i'm going to be Hokage one day ! " Naruto replied.
" Oh please, as if someone as weak as you could ever achieve that goal. I can tell by how you dress and how you act that you're not a real Ninja " Soifon arrogantly stated.
" What makes you think so ? " Naruto asked.
" I can tell by those eyes of yours, you're still a child . Have you ever killed anyone before ? " Soifon asked.
" No but that's not the point ! " Naruto answered.
" Just as i thought, you're far too kind hearted to be a Shinobi ,do you think you can be a Ninja and not commit assassination ? You're only a Ninja because of that Tailed demon inside of you. You have no real skills whatsoever, if anything you're not even good at hiding your presence. What Ninja wears orange ? Face it kid, you can never be a Ninja much less a Hokage " Soifon taunted.
" Shut up, it's true that i don't kill people and it's true that i'm not the best when it comes to being a Ninja but i don't care. I'm a Ninja who follows his own path , i never go back on my word! That's my nindō: my Ninja way ! " Naruto stated as he charges at Soifon kicks him in the stomach.
" So much for your Ninja way ! " Soifon laughed but it's a clone.
" Got you ! " Naruto shouted as he goes to punch Soifon but Soifon dodges the blow.
" Not a bad counter but try blocking this " Soifon replied as she goes to kick Naruto but Naruto punches her in the stomach sending her flying through 5 trees . Soifon gets back up.
" Is that all you got ? " Naruto laughed but he then sees Soifon behind him.
" Kūgun Yashi (空軍ヤシForce Palm) " Soifon chanted as she strikes Naruto in the chest and sends him flying 300 feet away through a 5 story building and causes it to collapse on him. Soifon then dashes at him with a running elbow strike but Naruto dodges it.
" Clone Spinning Axe Kick " Naruto chanted as he uses 3 Shadow Clones, Naruto and his clones launch themselves into the air and begin to somersault. They then come spinning down, slamming their heels onto the Soifon's shoulders and head.
" Fell for it ! " Soifon replied as she hits him from behind with as dropkick knocking him to the ground . Soifon then goes to kick him but Naruto catches her foot and hits her with an uppercut .
" Not bad, what did you use to escape my attack ? " Naruto asked.
" Utsusemi (空蝉, Cicada, referencing their molting) Way of Onmitsu,3rd of the Shihō. It allows for a movement at great, sudden speed, leaving at least one tangible after-image behind " Soifon stated.
" I see, you used the same technique as that Byakuya guy i fought " Naruto stated.
" Don't compare him to me. I'm far superior in the art of Shunpo and Onmitsu than that Byakuya guy " Soifon said to Naruto as she goes to attack Naruto.
" Shit, she's fast ! " Naruto said to himself as Soifon kicks him in the nose and then in the back of the head and then leaps high to use an axe kick.
" Take this ! " Soifon chanted as she goes to hit him with her foot but Naruto grabs her foot.
" You left yourself open ! " Naruto replied as he slams her into the ground cracking the ground and damaging Soifon's back.
" AHH damn it ! " Soifon shouted in pain as he then picks her up and sets her up for an Rasengan.
" It's over ! Rasengan (螺旋丸Spiralling Sphere )" Naruto shouted as he it her with a strong right hook sending her flying 500 feet away through 30 trees.
Soifon gets back up after taking the blow but she took no damage from the hit.
" Not bad using the Rasengan to hit my bindspot. Maybe you not as bad as i thought you were however i already seen that attack and learned to counter the attack before it hits me " Soifon stated.
" How could you of read my moves ? " Naruto asked.
" I already seen your friend Konohamaru use it against me . He needed Shadow Clones to use it, it's impressive you can use that same Jutsu without Shadow Clones " Soifon said to Naruto.
" Still how did you stop my Rasengan ? It hit you directly " Naruto asked.
" Kyōkonaishi ( 強固な意志 Iron Will ). It's meant to deal with strong strikes like yours by enhancing the area of my body with my Reiatsu " Soifon explained to Naruto.
" So my Rasengan won't work on you then ? " Naruto asked.
" Nope , but to make sure you don't have even have the slightest chance against me, i'll take you down in the most effective way possible . Sting all Enemies to Death Suzumebachi (雀蜂Hornet) " Soifon chanted as she releases her Shikai and then uses her Shikai to enhance her speed and kicks Naruto down 500 feet away through 40 trees.
" Damn it, she's fast ! " Naruto said to himself.
" Is that all you got ? Then again i should've expected less from a kid like you. As you can see, i'm much more powerful than that Captain you fought, my Shikai is literally as strong as a Bankai . If it wasn't against my orders, i would of easily killed you by now. You're nowhere near my speed or power " Soifon arrogantly taunted.
" Damn it, she's so fast i can't even see her movements. I'm in serious trouble unless i find a weakness " Naruto thought to himself as he struggles to get back up.
" Aren't you a glutton for punishment ? You still wish to fight a foe you can't even follow with your eyes ? It's amazing how stupid you are. I'll play around with you and beat you down so badly, you'll be begging for your mommy " Soifon arrogantly taunted.
" My mother's been dead for 16 years ! " Naruto replied.
" Oh boy, it's going to be fun torturing you " Soifon replied as she starts to attack Naruto.
Yamanaka District
At the same time
10:35 A.M. Ichigo and Lee clash attacks with each other. Ichigo is in Shikai while Lee is using the 1st gate to clash with Ichigo. Ichigo goes for a vertical slash but Lee dodges the slash and goes for a roundhouse kick. Ichigo clashes his Shikai against Lee's right leg but Lee gets a small cut from the collision while Ichigo's Zangetsu has a small crack at the middle of the blade.
" Guess it's not smart to clash my foot against a blade that size " Lee said to Ichigo.
" Not bad, you cracked my Zangetsu with just your foot , still you can't hope to take my Shikai with just your barefoot " Ichigo stated.
Allow me to counter with my own weapon " Lee stated as he takes out his Nunchaku and charges at Ichigo with his Nunchaku.
" Very well then ! " Ichigo replied as he goes to attack Lee with his man sized sword.
Ichigo comes at Lee with a vertical slash that cuts a large 6 story building in half . Lee jumps in the air and goes to attack him.
" Dynamic Entry (ダイナミック・エントリーDainamikku Entorii)" Rock Lee chanted as he uses his right leg to do a jumping kick which sends Ichigo flying 300 feet eastward mashing him through a 3 story building. Ichigo gets back up and goes to attack Lee .
" Take this ! " Ichigo shouted as he spins his Zangetsu by the cloth on the hilt and hits Lee . Lee blocks with his Nunchaku.
" Not bad, you're able to do well against my Nunchaku. It's amazing that you can wield a big sword like that with just finesse and skill "
" Give me some credit for teaching you those moves Ichigo " Hollow Ichigo said to Ichigo.
" Shut up Hichigo , this isn't the time for that , I'm only focusing on wining this fight " Ichigo stated as he goes to attack Lee and swings his Zangetsu like a flail but Lee swings his Nunchaku to counter his Shikai.
Lee counters with a series of 5 fast horizontal strikes and a vertical lunging smash but Ichigo blocks and then jumps in the air and does a jump slash but Lee blocks the strike and extends his nunchucks to warp around Ichigo's midsection .
" Take this! Primary Lotus (表蓮華Omote Renge)" Lee chanted as he uses the first gate to slam Ichigo through the ground causing a 300 foot shockwave leveling 10 buildings nearby.
Lee is on top of a toppled 5 story building looking at the smoke cloud. The smoke clears up to reveal that Ichigo is still alive and barely took any injuries.
" Getsuga Tenshō " Ichigo shouted as he creates a large blue wave that creates a 500 foot long, 3 foot wide, 10 foot deep fissure which Lee managed to block taking light burn wounds on his arms. His Nunchaku were destroyed in the blast.
" What an amazing technique you just used , that technique absorbs his spiritual energy and releases highly condensed spiritual energy at the tip of the blade, magnifying the slash attack and then flies forward. This slash takes the form of a crescent moon or in the shape of a wave doubling the power of your slashes " Lee stated to Ichigo.
" It's amazing how you're able to deduct how my Getsuga Tenshō however you're at your limit. I was holding back in that blast, if you wish to leave here alive , i suggest you leave here now " Ichigo arrogantly stated as he points his sword at Lee.
" You must be mistaken if you think this was my best " Lee replied as he goes into fighting stance.
" Very well then if you want to play that way then so be it " Ichigo said to Lee as he goes to attack Lee.
" Second Gate : Gate of Healing(休門, Kyūmon) " Lee shouted as he increases his physical strength and temporarily re-energizes his body. His body is surrounded by an orange yellow aura . Lee uses his speed to slash Ichigo's right shoulder.
" No way !I thought you didn't have Ninjutsu " Ichigo said to Lee as he staggers in pain struggling to move his right arm
" This isn't Ninjutsu you see here, this is the Eight Gates are eight specific points on a person's Chakra Pathway System. They limit the overall flow of Chakra within a person's body. This makes the body much weaker, but it keeps the body from expiring too soon. By undergoing intense training, one can learn how to open these gates allowing the user to surpass their own physical limits at the cost of extreme damage to their own body " Lee explained to Ichigo.
" So what you're saying is that ? " Ichigo questioned.
" My strength and speed has doubled ! " Lee replied as he then uses Shunshin to move at 3,666.6 ft/sec (2,500 MPH) hitting Ichigo in the stomach with his fist sending Ichigo flying 200 feet away. Ichigo gets back up and goes to counterattack.
" Getsuga Tenshō " Ichigo shouted as he fires a blast at Lee only to have it deflected but a roundhouse kick which cuts the blast in half " Impossible, he deflected my Getsuga Tenshō with his barefoot " Ichigo said shocked to see Lee easily deflect his Getsuga Tenshō.
" Too slow ! " Lee stated as he uses Shunshin to appear behind Ichigo but Ichigo blocks with his Shikai but is pushed back 20 feet.
" He's moving so fast, i can barely follow his movements , just what is he ? " Ichigo thought to himself but his inner thoughts were interrupted as he's kicked in the face by Lee. Ichigo is then hit in the stomach and back by Lee.
" Severe Leaf Hurricane( 木ノ葉大旋風Konoha Daisenpū) " Lee shouted as he goes to kick Ichigo but Ichigo manages to block the kick as the ground concave 3 feet deep around Ichigo.
" What's with his power? ! He's also much faster than before " Ichigo asked himself as he's pushed back 20 feet away.
" Leaf Rising Wind " Lee chanted as he kicks Ichigo in the face sending him flying . Ichigo regains his footing and goes for another attack.
" Getsuga Tenshō " Ichigo countered as he fires a blast towards Lee who's heading up towards him but Lee moved so fast with raw speed he went through the Getsuga Tenshō .
" Over here ! " Lee stated as he punches Ichigo from behind.
" Impossible, he outran my Getsuga Tenshō at point blank range " Ichigo said to himself as he gets back up with blood coming out of his check.
" Let me help you out Ichigo " Hollow Ichigo said to Ichigo.
" No, i'm not Hollowfying against a Special Jōunin nor would i use my Bankai " Ichigo said to Hollow Ichigo.
" Your being foolish, your opponent 's speed and strength is beyond that of a Lieutenant ,if you want to have the slightest chance of winning, you must use at least Bankai " Zangetsu said to Ichigo.
" No , already said that i'm not just going to use Bankai on just anyone anymore " Ichigo replied.
" Don't tell me you're done already Ichigo " Lee said to Ichigo as he kicks Ichigo with his left foot but Ichigo uses two hands on his Shikai to block the strike causing Ichigo to skid back 20 feet away.
" Take this ! " Ichigo shouted as he swings his Zangetsu like a flail but Lee kicks the blade with his bare foot.
" Not good enough ! " Lee said to Ichigo as he kicks Ichigo 300 feet away sending him flying through 3 buildings and causing them to collapse and having Ichigo bounded to a wall of the 4th building.
" So his spiritual power has increased , it's best i increase my own power " Ichigo shouted as he glows with blue Reiatsu and his eyes glow blue .
" I see,so you're ready to get serious this time " Lee said to Ichigo as he sees Ichigo come at him.
" Time to show you my resolve ! " Ichigo said to Lee as he he comes at Lee.
" You won't be able to hit me no matter how strong you are . You lack speed to catch me " Lee taunted as he goes to hit Ichigo .
" I got you now ! Getsuga Tenshō " Ichigo countered as he swings down on his Shikai with his right hand slamming his Zangetsu into the ground creating a 600 foot blast radius leveling 20 buildings in the neighborhood.
The smoke clears up to reveal a 100 foot long, 3 foot wide, 10 foot deep fissure . Lee blocked the attack last second. Lee is on his knees with only a light gash on his forehead.
" Incredible i barely dodged it in time ! " Lee stated while on his knees.
" It's amazing you were able to outrun that , as you can see. I trained hard with my Zangetsu. I learned how to double my spiritual power and use it amplifying my attacks greatly. That last moth of training did wonders for my power and skills. Before i won my battles merely by luck but now i have some skills " Ichigo explained to Lee.
" I see, then i'll have to double my strength above yours then ,my only advice to you is that you release your Bankai " Lee asked as his Chakra flares up around him.
" What did you say ? " Ichigo asked.
" I know you have Bankai, i can tell you're holding back alot of power. If i turn my third Gate, you would lose trying to fight me with Shikai " Lee said to Ichigo.
" I refuse. A Special Jōunin isn't a real Jōunin ! I'm not going to waste my Bankai on anything less than a Jōunin " Ichigo answered.
" I understand how you feel. You think because i been ranked a Special Jōunin ,that means i'm of that level of strength am i correct ? " Lee asked.
" Of course i am ! " Ichigo answered.
" Then allow me to fix that misconception 3rd Gate: Gate of Life (生門,Seimon) " Rock Lee chanted as he releases an immense amount of Chakra from his body and his skin turn red, the surge of power turns from orange yellow to typical blue Chakra.
" What the hell ? " Ichigo asked as he sees Lee surging up with Chakra around him.
" Now let' see how long you can keep up with me in your Shikai " Lee said to Ichigo as he goes to kick Ichigo in the face but Ichigo barely dodges.
" Is that all you.. " Ichigo taunted only to be kicked by Lee in the stomach knocked back 1,000 feet away.
" Got ? Use your Bankai already, i don't wish to kill you " Lee said to Ichigo.
Meanwhile at the Nara District
Uryū and Shikamaru are fighting each other within the neighborhood. Shikamaru is hiding within a 6 story building while Uryū is outside looking for him.
" Looks like he's hiding somewhere, just what is he planning ? " Uryū asked himself.
Meanwhile in the building . Shikamaru thinks of a plan how to defeat Uryū .
" This is such a drag . i'm no match against him in a range battle and the rate he can fire those arrows. His speed and power would be tough to deal with but all i have to do is lead him into a narrow space and i would take the advantage " Shikamaru thought to himself as he tries to think of a plan.
Uryū then senses where Shikamaru is hiding .
" I found you ! " Uryū shouted as he fires 1,200 shots into the building Shikamaru is hiding in. Shikamaru is at the 5th floor when he sees the arrows rip straight through the walls.
" This isn't good, his arrows still maintain it's killing power even after piercing through walls " Shikamaru thought to himself as he sees the building collapse.
" Hiding is useless , trying to goat me into an open corner won't save you " Uryū stated to Shikamaru as Shikamaru leaves the collapsing building.
" Damn it, guess luring him into the open is out of the question , especially since his arrows could easily level buildings .Wait a second that's it ! " Shikamaru thought to himself as he then retreats into another building.
" It's not going to work ! " Uryū stated as he shoots another barrage of arrows smashing that building to pieces.
" I got him this time ! " Shikamaru said to himself as he's within a local gas pipeline building and he then puts out a flare and lights it up with Asuma's lighter.
" A flare, does he think he can trick me ? " Uryū stated as he shoots an arrow towards Shikamaru's location where the fare is at and curves the arrow to Shikamaru.
" He can curve the arrows ? " Shikamaru stated as he dodges the arrow by an inch that was aimed for his head.
" I saw what you were trying to do . You were planing on having me blow up that gas pipeline so you would have a light source increasing the range of your Shadow Jutsus, well you would need to do better than that " Uryū stated.
" Guess that was too much of a predictable risk wasn't it ? Then i'll have no choice but to fight you at your game " Shikamaru replied as he pulls out a scroll.
" What the hell ? " Uryū said to himself.
" Hikarijirai Kunaiame(光地雷クナイの雨 Light Landmine Kunai Rain ) " Shikamaru chanted as he opens the scroll and throws 20 kunai at Uryū .
" Please, you think that would work ? " Uryū taunted as he shouted on arrow though all of them and each of the kunai land 100 feet from each other.
" Damn ! " Shikamaru said to himself as he then sees Uryū behind him using Hirenkyaku.
" Farewell ! " Uryū said to Shikamaru as he shots Shikamaru to pieces but it was an log .
Shikamaru then appears inside a building 200 feet of Uryū .
" Got you now ! " Shikamaru stated as he goes to use his shadow tendril to attack Uryū from behind.
" Not going to work ! " Uryū replied as he jumps in the air and shoots a round 20 feet from the building that ricochets into the interior which causes the building to explode.
" Got you now ! " Shikamaru stated as he throws an exploding tag towards Uryū taped onto a kunai but Uryū dodges it only to see a shadow tendril in front of him.
" His attacks are getting more accurate and closer, i need to be careful and attack him with guided arrows . I can't just attack straightforward with him " Uryū said to himself as he dodges another exploding kunai and then turns around to fire 5 more shots at Shikamaru but Shikamaru jumps out of the building he's hiding in only to use Shunshin to be in a building 200 feet west of Uryū .
" Just a little more ! " Shikamaru said to himself as he jumps over another arrow which destroys another 4 story building.
" Somethings not right here, his attacks are more direct. He must be up to something. Still i just need to his cover and he'll be all mine " Uryū said to himself as he dodges another exploding tag which creates a deep 1 foot diameter , 10 foot deep crater in the ground.
" I almost got him ! " Shikamaru stated as he then pulls on a wire string and have kunai launchers from 5 buildings surrounding Uryū to shoot 100 kunai each.
" I knew it was a trap ! " Uryū stated as he uses using Hirenkyaku to escape and then fires arrows at 1,200 rounds per second for 20 seconds, leveling everything building within a 1,000 foot radius leveling 50 buildings and revealing Shikamaru 1,000 feet westward.
" Looks like you found me ! " Shikamaru said to Uryū .
" Nice trick but it's the end of the line Shinobi " Uryū said to Shikamaru as he prepares to fire the finishing blow from a 2,000 foot distance only to get stabbed from behind with a Shadow tendril.
" More like you fell for my trick ! " Shikamaru replied.
" How ? I thought your Shadow Possession only had the range of 1,650 feet " Uryū asked.
" That's what you thought. By leveling all the buildings here, you gave me enough rubble to cast shadows everywhere so i can ensnare you up to a 2,000 foot radius " Shikamaru replied.
" Damn it, thought something was wrong here " Uryū said to Shikamaru.
" That's not the only thing either ! " Shikamaru stated as he throws his kunai at one of the light tags on a kunai near Shikamaru which causes them all the light up and cause a bright light which makes the shadows longer.
" Those kunai you thrown earlier ! " Uryū asked only to be interrupted by Shikamaru.
" Those weren't met for hitting you directly. To be honest, that kind of combat doesn't suit me nor would it help against a Quincy. Hikarijirai Kunaiame(光地雷クナイの雨 Light Landmine Kunai Rain ) is meant to extend the range of my Shadow Possession Jutsu using a Chakra seal tag with the Kanji Light( 軽 )on it. Now my Shadow Possession Jutsu has the range of 1,200 m. Enough to rival your 1,800 m arrows " Shikamaru explained to Uryū .
" How smart are you to think all this up so fast ? " Uryū asked Shikamaru .
" My IQ is over 200 , while your clearly an intelligent man, you won't be able to outwit me " Shikamaru explained to Uryū .
" I see, my IQ is only 180 , no wonder i was tricked by you " Uryū replied.
" Here's another problem i discovered about your technique Quincy. Your attacks are straightforward, you need to aim to hit me with a fatal blow. With shadows everywhere around you, i can hit you with my shadow tendrils and you have no way of evading it with little cover " Shikamaru explained to Uryū as he has a shadow tendril come at Uryū but Uryū outruns it and fires arrows at Shikamaru barely dodges it.
" I can still hit you with my arrows , looks like were in a stalemate though " Uryū replied as he goes to attack Shikamaru.
Meanwhile at the Uchiha District
Sakura is overpowering Chad while Chad is in his first arm form. Sakura uses her Chakra enhanced strength to sending Chad flying 300 feet away slamming him through 3 buildings and hitting his head on the fourth building.
" How lame, is this the best you can do against me ? " Sakura asked Chad as she walks closer towards him.
" Her strength increased greatly but how ? Either way, i'll just have to beat her " Chad stated to himself as he charges at Sakura with his right hand.
" That won't work ! " Sakura taunted as she grabs his fist with her open left palm and holds his fist " You punches can't hope to damage me and your speed is nothing within using Shunshin " Sakura stated as she throws Chad 500 feet eastward through 20 trees.
" Sacador Targeta( Spanish for Punch Blast ) " Chad chanted as he shoots 3 blasts at Sakura creating a 50 foot radius explosion but Sakura stands there unfazed.
" Those weak blast won't hurt me , you'll end up dead if you keep attacking me with those weakass blows " Sakura taunted.
" We'll see if i die or not! " Chad replied as his fist glows with blue Reiatsu and he comes at Sakura but Sakura catches his fist again with her left arm.
" Too slow ! " Sakura shouted as she hits him in the left check with a right hook then pushes Chad's arm right off and then hits Chad in the stomach with a left body blow then hits him in the neck with a right hammer fist then sends him flying with a left uppercut sending him flying 200 feet in the air but Chad regains balance and goes to counterattack.
" Brazo Saltar De Gigante (Spanish for Leaping Arm of a Giant ) " Chad chanted as he does a powerful punch similar to Sakura's Cherry Blossom Impact which creates a large explosion leveling everything within a 200 foot radius leveling 5 buildings in it's path.
" Not a bad attack but not good enough " Sakura shouted as she kicks Chad in the face and then grabs him and throws him through the ground with a chokeslam. Sakura goes to strike him with her right hand on his neck
" Sacador Targeta( Spanish for Punch Blast ) " Chad chanted as he shoots a blast hitting Sakura's face blinding Sakura and causing her to stagger back 20 feet away.
" I can't see ! " Sakura shouted as she struggles to see.
" Time to end this ! " Chad shouted as he comes at her with a devastating right hook but Sakura uses Shunshin and punches Chad in the stomach again.
" Kyōken (強肩 Strong Arm ) " Sakura chanted as she uses a strong punch to hit Chad through 3 buildings northward. Sakura leaps 200 feet high and goes to attack Chad.
" I can't dodge ! " Chad stated as he tries to get up .
" Tsūtenkyaku (痛天脚 Heaven Kick of Pain) " Sakura countered as she goes down to kick Chad causing a 400 foot radius shockwave. Chad jumps out of the way barely dodging the blast. The shockwave levels 10 buildings .
" Got you now ! Brazo Saltar De Gigante (Spanish for Leaping Arm of a Giant ) " Chad chanted as he does a powerful punch similar to Sakura's Cherry Blossom Impact which creates a large explosion leveling everything within a 200 foot radius leveling 5 buildings in it's path but his fist was caught by Sakura's right hand. " Shit !"
" You're not strong enough to beat me. You're too weak, Hyakumētoru Sutoraiku(百メートルHundred Meter Strike ) " Sakura chanted as she punches Chad away 330 feet through 6 buildings westward.
" Damn it ! " Chad shouted as she is about to go through the last building.
" Haruno Kerutōrai (春の蹴る到来 Coming of Spring Kick ) " Sakura chanted as she gathers Chakra around her feet and dashes at 4693.3 ft/sec (3,200 MPH ) and hits down where Chad is at and creates a massive 400 foot radius explosion. Sakura then notices Chad.
" That was too close for comfort ! " Chad said to himself as he's bleeding from his forehead. The smoke clears up to reveal Sakura leveled 12 buildings with her kick and created a 60 foot diameter , 15 foot deep crater .
" You're still alive ? " Sakura asked shocked to see Chad alive .
" Time to stop playing around " Chad said to Sakura as he charges up Reiatsu around his fist to attack Sakura.
" What the hell ? " Sakura said shocked to see Chad charging up Chakra around his fist.
" Let's see you block this hit ! " Chad said to Sakura as he charges right at her.
" Shit ! " Sakura shouted as she blocks with both arms.
" Oleada serie del Gigante( Spanish for Serial Surge of the Giant ) " Chad chanted as he uses the same powerful punch which caught Shunsui by surprise hitting Sakura directly causing a large explosion leveling 15 buildings within a 400 foot radius.
The smoke clears up revealing Sakura is covered in blood and has burns on her body,
" Not bad however if that's the full extent of your power, i'm not worried at all. You're only Lieutenant level at best with that punch " Sakura stated as she surrounds herself with an blueish Green Chakra wounds heal up and her body has no more cuts on it.
" Damn it, i forgot she can heal herself " Chad said to himself as he goes to attack her again with the same punch " Oleada serie del Gigante( Spanish for Serial Surge of the Giant) " Chad chanted as he tries to hit her again.
" It's not going to work ! " Sakura replied as she punches Chad 's right arm breaking the arm.
" ARRRGH ! Not again ! " Chad shouted in pain as he falls down.
" What a disappointment you turned out to be, just when i thought you were getting stronger, you turn out to be so weak . Guess there's no point in dragging on this fight . Goodbye " Sakura shouted as she goes to punch Chad but Chad blocks her fist with his right hand again releasing a blue Reiatsu around him.
Chad emerges out of the smoke with a new form on his right arm. The shoulder extension becomes pointed as well as slightly longer, making it a little bit taller than Sado. The arm maintains its black color, but the magenta becomes slightly lighter and the design becomes more intricate, while the white is lost altogether.
" Brazo Derecha de Gigante Segunda Liberación (Spanish for Right Arm of the Giant :Second Release) " Chad chanted as he surges with immense spiritual power. His right arm is also fixed from Sakura's punch.
" I see so you been holding back all this time ? " Sakura asked.
" I was testing your level of power. Now it's time i stop toying around with you " Chad answered as he comes at Sakura using Sonído to appear behind Sakura and punches her 500 feet away sending her away leveling 5 buildings.
" Damn you ! " Sakura shouted as she shakes off the dust.
" Now let's fight seriously ! " Chad replied as he comes at Sakura.
Meanwhile at Konoha General Hospital
Ino manages to fully heal Yamato of his wounds after 5 minutes of using her Chakra.
" There all better ! " Ino said to Yamato.
" Thanks Ino ! " Yamato replied.
" I heard Naruto made it back to the village " Chōji asked Yamato.
" He did make it back and trust me when i say this, he's even stronger than 's learned how to control his Chakra better and has learned a brand new move " Yamamoto explained to them
" Cool, i want to go to him ! " Hinata stated.
" Not at your condition, you would only get in the way " Ino stated.
" Damn it ! " Hinata replied.
" I'm going to go and aid Kakashi, i'll see you guys later " Yamato said to them .
Suddenly Gai comes in with Kurenai on his shoulders as she then brought to Ino's bedside.
" Kurenai sensei ! " Hinata shouted shocked to see her covered in blood.
" Impossible, she was defeated. Who could of beaten her Genjutsu ? " Kiba asked.
" Not even my kikaichū could beat her Genjutsu " Shino stated.
" To think that one of the greatest Genjutsu users in Konoha could be defeated in her own game " Yamato said to Kurenai.
" The good news is that she's alive and her baby is not in any danger . The bad news is that she needs immediate medical treatment from a healer on Shizune's caliber otherwise we might lose her and the baby as well " Ino said to everyone
Suddenly Tsunade walks in with Shizune in her arms and places her on a hospital bed.
" She's going to be asleep for an hour. Her body needs rest before she can do anything. She used up too much Chakra " Tsunade said to Ino.
" Kurenai doesn't have an hour , she could die any minute now " Ino stated in a panicked tone
" I'll take care of her while getting Neji Shadow clone Jutsu " Tsunade chanted as she creates a clone of herself to start healing Kurenai with her shadow clone.
" Amazing, you can use healing Jutsu with Shadow Clones ? " Ino asked.
" You think Shadow Clones were just meant for diversion, evasion or assault ?I can channel my Chakra through them as well to heal patients, though it takes up alot of Chakra " Tsunade explained to Ino.
" That's very cool ! " Kiba stated.
" So how's my cousins condition ? Is he alright ? " Hinata asked.
" He'll live Hinata ,as long as i'm here " Tsunade answered as she goes to leave the hospital to save Neji.
" What do i do ? " Jiraiya asked.
" Make sure Naruto is alright, keep an eye on him ,understood ? " Tsunade ordered.
" Okay boss ! " Jiraiya answered.
Meanwhile at the Downtown district

" This is more like it, think you can take down more Shinobi than me Iba ? " Ikkaku asked with a psychotic grin on his face.
" Bring it on, first one to take down 25 enemies wins and the loser has to buy sake for a month " Iba replied as they are both surrounded by 50 enemies.
" Very well then ! " Ikkaku agreed with a smirk on his face as they go to fight the wave.
" Grow Hōzukimaru (鬼灯丸, Demon Light)" Ikkaku shouted as he releases his Shikai.
" Ingite Hametsuhano Henshōsa (運命刃の燃焼Combusting Doom Blade ) " Iba chanted as his Tantō shaped Zanpakutō transforms into large bladed scimitar with a pick-like protrusion a short distance below the tip of the sword.

" Nenshō Iwanokōu (燃焼岩の降雨 Combustion Rock Rain ) " Ibiki chanted as all the rocks float around him and hit 10 Shinobi killing them.
" Those guys are too strong , take cover and reform a strategy " said the Shinobi leader as they flee the area.
" Just five more to go ! " Ikkaku stated as he looks at the retreating wave.
" Don't run form us ! " Iba shouted as him and Ikkaku chase after the 30 retreating Shinobi but Yumichika appears to attack them .
" Bloom Fuji Kujaku . Usugiri# 4 Yūgana chōyaku suraisu (優雅な跳躍スライスGraceful Leaping Slice) " Yumichika chanted as he does an elegant leaping slice cutting down 10 Shinobi with his Shikai attacks.
" Hey , that's our enemies, you're not part of the bet " Ikkaku shouted at Yumichika.
" Sorry about that, i needed to show these Shinobis the true beauty of combat instead of your clumsy brutish attacks.
" Sorry we can't be a girly man like you " Iba mocked.
" I'm adding myself to the bet, both of you have to get me drinks and be my servants for a full month " Yumichika stated.
" Fine if you lose, you're banned from shopping in the world of the living for a month " Ikkaku stated.
" Fine then ! " Yumichika replied as 10 more Shinobi go to attack them but they are all cut down by the appearance of Hisagi .
" How about i throw my hat in and raise the stakes to money " Hisagi stated.
" Hisagi, looks like you still have a score to settle with me " Yumichika said to Hisagi.
" What happened in the Soul Society was a fluke, i'll show you my true skills. Winner of this fight will get 100,000 Kan " Hisagi said to the guys.
" Very well then , let's do this ! " Ikkaku replied with a psychotic smile.

" And think of all the clothes i can buy with that much money " Yumichika stated as all four of them are surrounded by more Shinobi.
" Bring it on ! " all the guys shouted as they go to attack.
Meanwhile at East Konoha
Kakashi continues to fight Ukitake by himself .
" Water Style: Water Dragon Jutsu (水遁・水龍弾の術 Suiton: Suiryūdan no Jutsu)" Kakashi shouted as a giant 100 foot long Water Dragon comes towards Ukitake but Ukitake blocks his attack with his two swords and cuts it in half.
" You need to do better than that ! " Ukitake said to Kakashi as he dashes towards Kakashi.
" This guy's strong , i got to find a weakness to his attacks " Kakashi said to himself as he dodges a slash from Ukitake
" Let's see how well you do against this ! Hadō # 88. Hiryugekizokushintenraiho ( 飛竜撃賊震天雷砲 Flying Dragon-Striking Heaven-Shaking Thunder Cannon)" Ukitake calmly chanted as he fires a massive lightning from his right hand after sheathing the first sword to send a blast directly at Kakashi.
" Dankū (断空,Severing Void) " Kakashi chanted as he uses an energy shield to stop the blast.
" I see, so that's why you're known as the Copy Cat Ninja. You're prowess in Ninjutsu is well know but to think you can copy Kidō and use it perfectly shows how remarkable you are " Ukitake said to Kakashi but he then coughs up blood " Not now of all times " Ukitake stated trying to hold his mouth.
" He's off guard, it's best i strike him " Kakashi said to himself as he pulls out his katana and goes to slash down Ukitake but he's then stopped by Shunsui using his Zanpakutō .
" Boy Ukitake, you're illness could really be costly, you must be more careful " Shunsui stated as he pushes Kakashi away from Ukitake.
" Sorry, i guess i should of took my medicine " Ukitake replied as he uses a needle on himself to make himself feel better.
" Now let's say we take him on together and bring him to questioning " Shunsui said to Ukitake.
" Right ! " Ukitake replied as they both head to attack Kakashi but Gai suddenly appears to get in the way.
" Kakashi, looks like you need some help " Gai said to Kakashi.
" Thanks Gai, looks like we have a tough battle in our hands " Kakashi said to Gai.
" Indeed you would have a rough time, i'm pretty sure you guys might lose " Shunsui replied as he joins Ukitake's side.
" Thank goodness you came Shunsui, these two are going to be a handful " Ukitake stated.
" Gai, don't hold back on these guys, these guys might be stronger than the Shinigamis we fought before " Kakashi said to Gai.
" Very well then , Kakashi you take the white hair guy while i fight the guy wearing the pink robe " Gai said to Kakashi.
" Very well then !" Kakashi replied as he faces Ukitake.
" So what's you name ? " Gai asked Shunsui.
" Shunsui Kyōraku , Captain of the 8th Division in the Gotei 13. I assume you're Might Gai of Squad 3 and the one who defeated Kenpachi Zaraki" Shunsui stated.
" It was a draw actually but yeah i'm the one who fought Kenpachi Zaraki " Gai answered.
" This should be fun ,very few people could physically match Kenpachi's raw power, what's your secret ? " Shunsui asked.
" Allow me to show how " Gai replied as he takes out his nunchucks and then wields them " ,Second Gate : Gate of Healing(休門, Kyūmon)" Gai shouted as he increases his physical strength and temporarily re-energizes his body. His body is surrounded by an light green aura.
" That's the spirit ! " Shunsui stated as he draws out his tachi and a wakizashi.
Meanwhile Kakashi and Ukitake face each other off.
" I didn't get your name , you know me but i don't know what's your name " Kakashi said to Ukitake.
" Then allow me to tell you my name, my name is Jūshirō Ukitake,Captain of the 13th Division in the Gotei 13 " Ukitake answered as he faces Kakashi.
" Very well then, let's stop playing around First Gate : Gate of Opening (開門,Kaimon)" Kakashi chanted as he goes into the first gate and charges up lightning around his Katana to charge at Ukitake.
Meanwhile at Hyōten Hyakkasō tower
Tsunade arrives at Ground Zero of the Hyōten Hyakkasō tower .Tsunade is unfazed by the freezing cold temperatures due to her shielding herself with Chakra around her body. She then touches the ice tower.
" This requires some delicate surgical thwarting " Tsunade said to herself as she melts the ice tower using her Chakra . After 30 seconds. Neji falls down but Tsunade catches his body. The melting ice falls down as liquid water falls down engulfing the area in a flood.
" That was a close one ! " Katsuyu stated.
" He's badly injured . He needs to be healed on the spot " Tsunade said to Katsuyu.
" The muscles, tendons, blood vessels, and nerves are all frozen. The skin is hard, feels waxy and has purplish blisters filled with blood. He has serious 4th degree burns and needs treatment " Katsuyu explained to Tsunade.
" Time to heal his body! Hifu Kaifuku(皮膚回復Skin Restoration ) " Tsunade chanted as she goes to heal Neji healing his skin in a slow process.
" You're using that Jutsu ? " Katsuyu asked.
" I can't just rush the healing process, the damage is so extensive that i need 5 minutes to restore his skin and restore Chakra into his internal organs. He's only hanging on by a thread of his life " Tsunade replied as the area within a 1 mile radius starts to thwart.
Tsunade easily breaks Neji out and takes him to the hospital.
Yamanaka District
10:40 A.M. Ichigo struggles to fight against Lee in his 3rd gate form . Ichigo struggles to follow Lee's movements without using his Bankai. Ichigo also dodges another kick only to be hit from, behind by Lee's right foot and sent flying into the air .
" I'm not done yet ! " Lee said to Ichigo as he kicks Ichigo down with his left foot doing and axe kick. Ichigo barely blocks the strike with his Shikai . He's still violently slammed through the ground creating a 10 foot deep, 20 foot diameter crater.
" Getsuga Tenshō " Ichigo shouted as he fires a Getsuga Tenshō at Lee but Lee easily deflects the blast with the back of his right hand.
" What was that ? I told you need to release your Bankai " Lee said to Ichigo as he dashes at Ichigo.
" I told you, i won't use it against anyone less than a Jōunin " Ichigo replied.
" Then i'll make you use it ! " Lee replied as he does a series of 50 fast kicks on Ichigo which Ichigo barely blocks against. Lee then leaps in the air and punches Ichigo through the ground again causing a 300 foot implosion wave leveling 10 more buildings .
" Damn it, i thought by fighting with Shikai alone i could conserve my spiritual power for Naruto while dealing with him at the same time. Special Jōunin my ass, he's fighting on the level of a Jōunin already " Ichigo said to himself.
" Come on Ichigo, stop playing around and turn Bankai " Lee said to Ichigo as he uses a dashing kick to push Ichigo back 200 feet away.
" I only have one chance at beating him while conserving my energy " Ichigo said to himself as he goes to channel all his Reiatsu and his eyes glow blue again.
" That technique again, foes he think he can win with that alone. Guess i'll have to stop holding back to get his attention " Lee said to himself as he comes towards Ichigo.
" I got you now ! Getsuga Tenshō " Ichigo countered as he swings down on his Shikai with his right hand slamming his Zangetsu into Lee creating a 600 foot blast radius leveling 20 buildings in the neighborhood.
" That attack can't hurt me ! " Lee said to Ichigo as he stops Zangetsu barehanded.
" Impossible,he stopped my Zangetsu with his barehand " Ichigo said to himself as he is then punched in the stomach and sent flying 50 feet away.
" Guess, you wish to die before showing me your true power Ichigo, very well you turned out to be a serious disappointment . Farewell Ichigo " Lee replied as he dashes at 7333.3 ft/sec (5,000 MPH) .Lee moved so fast that he uplifted the ground within a 30 foot is kicked up with immense speed and force that it easily overpowers and destroys his Shikai and causes a shockwave . Ichigo is launched into the air and his Shikai was shattered from the impact.
" He's too fast ! His speed alone shattered my Zangetsu " Ichigo said to himself in shock as he is helplessly floating in mid air.
Lee then appears in front of him and deliver a series of 20 punches and then hits him into the ground then appears a second before he can fall down and preforms his attack.
" Leaf Hot Wind (木ノ葉熱風 Konoha Neppū) " Lee shouted as he does a spinning upward corkscrew kick with his body on fire and then launches Ichigo down with an axe kick and creating a 600 foot fiery shock wave that forms a 23 foot deep , 84 foot diameter crater producing the force of 67 Tons of TNT. Over 20 buildings are leveled from the blast.
Ichigo gets back panting and barely able to stand from the assault .
" Guess i have no other choice, i really didn't want to do this without using my Bankai. I was foolish and stubborn for not taking you seriously. Now allow me to show you my Bankai " Ichigo stated as he holds on to his broken sword handle and he then forms spiritual energy around his body to reform his Shikai.
" About time you decide to fight with it " Lee said to Ichigo.
" Very well , I won't hold back on you Bankai " Ichigo shouted as he releases a massive wave of energy engulfing everything within a 300 foot radius in a whirlwind. "Tensa Zangetsu (天鎖斬月, Heaven Chain Slaying Moon)" Ichigo said as he reveals his black sword.
" I see, very impressive . I assume all your Chakra is compressed into your blade making it easier for you to move around. This show prove interesting " Lee said to Ichigo.
" Here i come ! " Ichigo replied as he comes at Lee with his Bankai .
Lee and Ichigo clash attacks with each other. Lee throws a punch at Ichigo but Ichigo dodges the attack and swings his Bankai with one hand but Lee ducks over the attack . Lee goes for a roundhouse kick but Ichigo blocks the kick. Lee goes for a two handed hammerfist but Ichigo blocks with one hand on his sword.
" Not bad, now this is more like it ! " Lee stated as he goes to kick Ichigo but Ichigo dodges the kick.
" I'm finally able to predict your attacks! " Ichigo said to Lee .
" So ? " Lee asked.
" That means you can't hit me with your attacks. Zanzō (残像 Afterimage ) " Ichigo said as he creates 12 afterimages of himself moving at 12,833 ft/sec ( 8,750 MPH) impressing Lee.
" He's moving very fast. I can't even see the real him " Lee said to himself as he blocks several clones at once .Lee kicks one only to see a mirage. Lee is cut on the shoulder by a vertical lunge from the real Ichigo . Lee tires to hit the one who cut him with a roundhouse kick only to see it was another afterimage
" What's wrong, you're moving too slow ? " Ichigo gloated as he continues to dash around her with afterimages. Hiyori struggles to fight against the after images as he comes at all directions of him.
" Leaf Hot Wind (木ノ葉熱風 Konoha Neppū) " Lee shouted as he does a spinning upward corkscrew kick with his body on fire creating a 600 foot fiery shock wave that . 20 buildings are leveled from the blast.
" You don't think that weak attack would be enough ? I won't be so easily taken out by such a weak attack" Ichigo said to Lee as his body is surrounded with blue Reiatsu around the crater created by the kick.
" Impossible, he easily deflected the kick using pure Chakra , he managed to take no damage at all form the blast " Lee said to himself as Ichigo appears behind him.
" Time to end this ! Getsuga Tenshō " Ichigo shouted as he slashes Lee across the chest with his Bankai and releases his blast causing a 1,000 foot radius explosion leveling 50 buildings.
Rock Lee gets back up with a deep gash across his chest going from his shoulder to waist.
" That blast almost cut me in half. Had not for using my inner gates to shield myself, i would of been cut in half. I must say, to condense your own Chakra to shield injuries takes some skills " Lee said to Ichigo as he struggles to stand from the blood coming out of his wounds.
" It's amazing you're still able to stand even after a gash like that " Ichigo said to Lee.
" Well at least i know that you would prove to be a great fight. I guess 3rd gate isn't enough, time to release my full power " Lee said to Ichigo as his body shoots up with intense Chakra.
" What the hell is he doing now ? " Ichigo asked himself.
" Fourth Gate:Gate of Pain (傷門,Shōmon)" Lee stated as his body starts to vibrate and move at supersonic speeds releasing a massive wave of Chakra engulfing everything within a 500 foot radius in a whirlwind.
" I got to stop him ! " Ichigo stated as he dashes at Lee with his Bankai but Lee easily steps out of the way and grabs Ichigo's sword with his bare hand.
" He caught Tensa Zangetsu barehanded, Impossible just what the hell is he ? " Ichigo looks with shock and terror on his face.
Lee then uses it as leverage to throw Ichigo a great distance by kicking Ichigo in the stomach causing Ichigo to cough up blood and then sending him across 1,000 feet and creates a 30 foot diameter 10 foot deep crater from his violent fall.
" Come on Ichigo, think you can keep up ? " Lee said to Ichigo as he uses his speed to run circles around Ichigo . Ichigo is then hit by a right roundhouse kick by Lee which sends Ichigo flying 1,500 feet away.
" Damn it ! " Ichigo shouted as he's being dragged back but he recovers his footing only to see Lee in front of him moving at 32,083 ft/sec (21,875 MPH ). Ichigo barely dodges using Shunpo to move at 12,833 ft/sec ( 8,750 MPH) . Ichigo goes to swing his Bankai but Lee catches it with both hands .
" Too slow ! " Lee stated as he kicks Ichigo in the air launching him in the air . Lee uses Shunshin to appear in the air and kick Ichigo down creating another creating another 600 foot fiery shock wave that forms a 10 foot deep , 30 foot diameter. Lee dashes down to hit Ichigo but Ichigo dodges the punch .
" Getsuga Tenshō "Ichigo shouted as he shoots a blast at Lee but Lee dodges it and hits Ichigo in the stomach.
" Youthful Leaf Lotus Attack " Lee chanted as he hits Ichigo with 10 high speed kicks moving all around Ichigo at high speeds 10 times then punching Ichigo in the stomach 10 times then is sent flying 300 feet high and goes to leap in the air and does a flying axe kick causing a 1,500 foot radius leveling all the remaining buildings within the neighborhood causing a massive shockwave.
Out of the 103 foot diameter, 28 foot deep crater Ichigo emerges with blood coming out of his arms and his head. The explosive force of the attack produces the force of 134 Tons of TNT, over 7 times the force of the MOAB.
" Damn it ! " Ichigo shouted as he gets back up.
" Is that all you got ? You're a serious disappointment " Lee asked with a disappointed look on his face.
However as the smoke clears Ichigo reveals that he has recovered from the brutal beating and unleashes a black red Reiatsu .
" Kuroi Getsuga (黒月牙, Black Moon Fang) " Ichigo shouted as he creates a black and red blast of energy that pushes Lee back 2,000 feet away and creates a massive 1,000 foot radius explosion.
Lee manages to block the attack and sustains a large burn on both of his wrists and the left side of his pants.
" Damn, what a powerful technique " Lee said to Ichigo .
" Am i still disappointing you ? " Ichigo smiled.
" He's going to be very tough to fight. My body can't take the strain much longer, while my Eight Gates gives me explosive speed and power, it limits my stamina and durability. It would be too risky to use the 5th Gate, especially in my injured state. I have 5 minutes at most to finish this fight before the 5th gate starts to tear my muscle tissue " Lee thought to himself as he struggles to get back up.
" He's not an Arrancar, while he can block some of my strikes barehanded, i can still cut him with stronger strikes. I can still beat him without using my Vizard mask. It seems he's already becoming strained with his own power " Ichigo thought to himself as he holds his Bankai in both hands.
At the same time
Third Training Ground
10:40 A.M. Naruto struggles to fight against Soifon using Naruto and Soifon are around the same strength level, Naruto can't keep up with Soifon's speed or superior marital arts skills.
" Hakuda # 7. Bōryoku Tekinatōsō (暴力的な闘争Violent Struggle) " Soifon chanted as she throws a variety of 30 punches with right hand ,then 30 punches with her left hand and 20 kicks and then finishes with palm strike to Naruto's stomach knocking him 300 feet through several trees.
"ARRGH! " Naruto shouted in pain as he struggles to get back up.
" Hakuda # 16 . Senfītoha(千フィート刃Thousand feet blades ) " Soifon chanted as she does a series of 50 kicks in 5 seconds within 20 of them horizontal kicks and 30 of them lunging kicks as well with Reiatsu infused on them.
" I can't follow her movements at all, she's too fast for me " Naruto said to himself as he's knocked down by another kick. Naruto gets back up with blood coming out of his head.
" You're a real glutton for punishment, seriously give up and come quietly, you're no match for me at all Soifon arrogantly taunted.
" Eat a dick bitch !" Naruto replied.
" Then i'll have to beat you down until you can barely move " Soifon replied as she dashes at him.
" Got you " Naruto stated as he throws smoke bombs at Soifon blinding her.
" Damn it ! " Soifon shouted as she struggles to see. She is then punched in the face by Naruto who uses a fast punch to catch Soifon by surprise sending her flying 1,000 feet through a tree.
" Not a real Ninja huh ? Guess you're the one who doesn't know the most basic rule. Don't judge a book by it's cover" Naruto stated as he stands back up.
Soifon gets back up with blood coming from her nose.
" You brat! How dare you make a fool out of me ? " Soifon shouted in anger .
" I must admit, i may not be as skilled as you in hand to hand combat and your speed is even greater than bushy brows but don't underestimate the most unpredictable Ninja in Konoha " Naruto said to Soifon.
" Ninja ? You're no Ninja, you're just a little boy who thinks he's a Ninja. You have no clue what hardships a Ninja must take to become a Ninja. You're nothing but a tool that everyone uses for their own purposes " Soifon arrogantly mocked.
" Shut up, i'm not a tool " Naruto shouted.
" Is that what they tell you ? How convenient of them to lie to you like that, you must of been pampered well for you to spew such utter bullshit " Soifon arrogantly mocked.
" That's what you think. I wasn't given any respect, i had to earn the hard way " Naruto replied as he charges blindly towards Soifon.
" You fell for it ! " Soifon smirked as she stabs Naruto with her gauntlet " Suzumebachi Sasumahi (スズメバチ刺すマヒHornet Stinging Paralysis)" Soifon chanted as she uses a modified poison of Suzumebachi to stun Naruto.
" Damn it, i can't move !" Naruto shouted as a red Homonka grows all over his body.
" It's the first time i used this technique in battle but i guess since killing you is out the question " Soifon said to Naruto.
" What the hell did you do to me ? " Naruto asked as he struggles to move.
" Nigeki Kessatsu (弐撃決殺, Death in Two Steps) kills in two hits .The mechanics behind Suzumebachi ability takes effect not through point of entry but rather point of actual surface contact. This ability is caused by a venom that Suzumebachi secretes. When it enters the target's body, it spreads throughout their body in a matter of minutes, if not seconds, destroying it without a trace" Soifon explained to Naruto.
" So what is poison you used on me ? " Naruto asked.
" It's called Suzumebachi Sasumahi (スズメバチ刺すマヒHornet Stinging Paralysis). It turns the entire body into a Homonka while paralyzing the body with the poison ensuring that the second hit would kill them even if it didn't hit the point of actual surface contact. It's also useful for capturing enemies alive, the problem is that i can only use this technique 3 times a day and requires alot of spiritual power. Unlike Nigeki Kessatsu , i can only maintain your paralysis for half an hour. More than enough time to take you to the Soul Society " Soifon explained to Naruto as she comes towards him.
" I see, guess i'll just have to beat you then ! " Naruto replied as it's revealed to be a clone she stunned.
" Impossible, how were you able to fool me with a clone ? " Soifon asked shocked to see Naruto behind her.
"Like i said before , don't underestimate me woman. I'm going to become Hokage one day . Multi Shadow Clone Jutsu (多重影分身の術 Tajū Kage Bunshin no Jutsu)" Naruto chanted as he summons 150 clones of himself to attack, all of them dashing at 6416.7 ft/sec(4,375 MPH) moving around Soifon.
" How foolish, do you think you can take me on with just mere clones ? Please, i know how to counter that second rate parlor trick . Way of Onmitsu, 2nd of the Shihō Riarutai Kopīga (リアルReal Body Copy ) " Soifon chanted as she creates 15 clones of herself .
" I can only use a limited number of clones without access to my Bijuu Chakra , still should be enough to take on her clones " Naruto said to himself as all the clones fight each other off.
After a minute of fighting each others clones. Naruto is left with Soifon and her clone.
" Looks like you're out of magic tricks kid Rikujōkōrō (六杖光牢, Six-Staff Light Prison)" Soifon chanted as she traps Naruto in Kidō." You were way out your league " Soifon taunted only to be attacked by her own clone
" Rasengan" Fake Soifon chanted as she goes to hit the real Soifon but she jumps 200 feet high to evade the attack
" Not bad however you're too predictable to catch me with such a slow attack " Soifon taunted.
" Really ? " Fake Soifon replied as she disappears .Soifon is about to land only to see the ground burst out from underneath her.
" What ? " Soifon shouted shocked to see the Real Naruto with a clone below her leaping at her.
" Ōdama Rasengan( 大玉螺旋丸Great Ball Spiralling Sphere) " Naruto chanted he carries a Rasengan 3 times larger than normal and directly hits Soifon with the explosive blast. The explosion levels everything within a 3,000 foot radius.
The blast levels 16,000 trees in the forest . The blast creates a massive 124 foot diameter,34 foot deep crater . The force of the Rasengan produced 250 Tons of TNT striking force . Soifon lands on the ground with her legs badly damaged from the blast. Blood leaks out of her damaged legs and the bottom half of her pants was burned off .Soifon barely evaded the blast.
" Damn it you brat ! " Soifon shouted struggling to stand.
" Like my plan ? I baited you to dropping your guard so i can aim at your weak point. Now you and i should be around even playing field given you can't run as fast anymore " Naruto said to Soifon.
" I must admit, you're tougher than i thought however if you think we're equal, think again. You're still nowhere near my speed even with two injured legs, all you did was piss me off " Soifon replied as she goes to attack Naruto.
Meanwhile at the Uchiha District
Chad is overpowering Sakura with his new arm form. Sakura struggles to keep up with Chad's immense power. Sakura is smacked 400 feet away by Chad's right arm into a wall .
" You're barely a challenge to my power ! " Chad calmly stated to Sakura.
" Shut up , i'll crush you ! Tsūtenkyaku (痛天脚 Heaven Kick of Pain) " Sakura countered as she goes down to kick Chad causing a 400 foot radius shockwave. Chad blocked it with his right arm.
" Is that all you got ? Too bad , i was hoping you would be stronger " Chad stated as he holds back the kick while Sakura struggles to move her foot.
" Impossible, he blocked my kick with ease " Sakura said to herself as she's thrown through 6 buildings 660 feet away. Chad then appears and punches her in the gut.
" Sacador Targeta( Spanish for Punch Blast ) " Chad chanted as he shoots a blast hitting Sakura causing her to stagger back 20 feet away. Sakura goes to strike him up close .
" Kyōken (強肩 Strong Arm ) " Sakura chanted as she uses a strong punch but Chad directly in the face but the punch has no effect " What ? Impossible, i hit your directly " Sakura said shocked to see the punch having no effect. Sakura backs away from Chad.
" Is that all you got ? Now it's my turn to end this! " Chad shouted as the ends of the extension on his shoulder opens up and charges up spiritual energy, appearing somewhat like the flaming exhaust from a car engine.
" What the hell is he doing ? " Sakura said to herself.
" El Directo (Spanish for The Direct) " Chad chanted as he releases a huge blast of spiritual energy that hits Sakura with a powerful punch creating a blast radius destroying everything within a 500 foot radius leveling 18 buildings.
Sakura manages to block the attack with both hands but with no injuries.
" That was a strong punch ! " Sakura said to Chad.
" How did you block that attack ? " Chad asked.
" Did you think that was my full power ? Time to use my full power " Sakura stated.
" Full power ? " Chad stated with shock.
" So far i have only been using nearly 1/3 of my power , time to show you the difference in our power " Sakura stated as she surrounds her body with a blue green aura and then causes rocks around her to fragment and releases an immense amount of power. Sakura's hands are now overflowing with blueish green Reiatsu.
" Her Reiatsu shot up dramatically and her arms are covered in a flame like dense Chakra unlike anything i have sensed before, Not since Renji's Bankai have i witness Reiatsu this powerful " Chad stated to himself but before he can react Sakura uses a punch to create a massive shockwave that knocks back Chad .Chad then sees Sakura perform a back flip kick that forces Chad to block with two hands. Chad barely dodges and gets out of the way as the kick hits the ground and uplifts the ground within a 100 foot radius.
" You stand no chance if that's all you got! " Sakura stated.
" Don't count me out just yet ! " Chad stated as he goes for the attack but Sakura appears behind him.
" Strength and durability isn't the only thing this power boost increases" Sakura stated as she aims her Chakra enhanced punch at Chad's head but Chad sidesteps to avoid the punch by 3 inches, he barely dodges a flying roundhouse kick . Sakura goes for a uppercut which Chad barely dodges by a hair.
" Damn it, her speed has improved ! " Chad said to himself then sees a kick aimed at his head which he blocks which knocks her back into a wall. Sakura then uses Shunshin to appear in front of Chad moving at 3,666.6 ft/sec (2,500 MPH) and uses her palm to hit Chad . The force wave concentrates itself and causes Chad's stomach to bleed and vomits out blood.
" Damn i missed the heart, you were fast to jump a few inches high enough to avoid the killing strike " Sakura stated.
" I'm in trouble, this woman can kill me inside and out with her attacks " Chad stated to himself knowing he took some damage to his body.
" Now die ! Hyaku Mētoru Sutoraiku(百メートルHundred Meter Strike) " Sakura shouted as she punches Chad 330 feet away but Chad recovers and goes to counterattack.
" She's going to be tougher than i thought ! " Chad said to himself as he goes to fight Sakura.
Meanwhile at the Nara District
Uryū dodges a series of tendrils coming at him from the shadows . Shikamaru guides the shadow tendrils around Uryū . Uryū struggles to evade them all .
" Take this ! " Uryū stated as he fires more arrows at Shikamaru but Shikamaru dodges using Shunshin and sends 12 more shadowy tendrils to attack Uryū .
" I can't let him leave the perimeter i set up against him " Shikamaru said to himself as he has tendrils come at Uryū .
" Take this ! " Uryū shouted as he fires more arrows at Shikamaru but Shikamaru dodges the arrows and counters with his own attack using Tiger,Ram and Horse handseals
" Kage Nageboshi(影投げ星 Shadow Throwing Stars )" Shikamaru chanted as he uses the shadows to create 50 shuriken out of shadows that almost hit Uryū but Uryū uses Hirenkyaku to escape only to see Shikamaru behind him with a Tantō.
" Shit ! He had this planned out ! " Uryū thought to himself.
" Too late ! " Shikamaru shouted as he goes to cut Uryū with his Tantō but Uryū uses his bow as a shield.
" Damn, i see what you did. You have me focus on your Shadow tendrils and when you see an opening, you strike up close to attack me " Uryū said to Shikamaru.
" Correct, i have you all figured out. My Shadow Possession Jutsu has you pinned down while i can go and strike you at anytime " Shikamaru explained to Uryū as he has his shadow tendrils come at Uryū .
" I got to find a way past his Shadow tendrils " Uryū said to himself .
Meanwhile at a 500 foot distance , Uryū is struggling to maintain his power.
" This battle has dragged on for too long. I need to end this fast " Shikamaru said to himself as he pours more Chakra out of his body.
" That's it, that Shadow Possession Jutsu is tiring to use repeatedly, that the ability is subject to some form of diminishing return and decreases in potency after repeated use. That explains the decreasing speed and range of the attacks " Uryū thought to himself as he goes towards Shikamaru and shoots an arrow up into the air.
" What's going on here ? " Shikamaru asked as he then sees the large arrow scatter into thousands of arrows.
" Pfeil Regen (German/Dutch for Arrow Rain ) " Uryū chanted as he rains down thousands of arrows at Shikamaru.
" Kage no Ryokō(影の旅行Shadow Travel ) " Shikamaru chanted as he goes through the ground to escape the barrage of arrows that level everything within a 400 foot radius destroying 15 buildings. Shikamaru emerges out noticeably low on Chakra . Uryū then appears behind Shikamaru.
" Got you ! " Uryū stated as he shoots Shikamaru through the shoulder causing him to fall down.
" Damn it, but how ?" Shikamaru asked .
" I saw through your Shadow Possession Jutsu. While you're attacking, you need to be stationary to use it effectively with your mind which also leaves you vulnerable to attack but unlike me, you're Jutsu weakens the longer you drag it out. You can maintain it for 5 minutes per use. If you're low on Chakra, the performance rate of the technique also deteriorates. Insufficient lighting will make the technique less effective " Uryū explained to Shikamaru about Shikamaru's weakness.
" I see, you figured out my weakness but what do you mean by unlike me ? " Shikamaru asked.
" Allow me to explain. A Quincy primarily absorbs spiritual energy from the atmosphere, and combines it with their own spiritual energy to form weapons. As you can see, the Chakra enriched world were in here is alot like the Soul Society . In short, you attacks become weaker while i can gain back power " Uryū explained to Shikamaru.
" I see, i guess i have no other choice but to use this " Shikamaru replied as he pulls out two Chakra Blades from his last mentor.
" What are those ? " Uryū asked.
" This is my former mentors Chakra Blades, he was killed by the Shinigami and i was forced to watch helplessly because of it " Shikamaru answered with anger in his tone.
" I see , nothing personal but i must stop this madness and put an end to this war. I don't want to kill another human being " Uryū stated.
" My question is why do you side with the Shinigami ? " Shikamaru questioned.
" For the last time, i'm not an ally of the Soul Society. My goal is try to stop senseless violence. You Shinobi are only going to get yourselves killed eventually fighting the Shinigami, us Quinces learned that price the hard way " Uryū explained to Shikamaru.
" Why do you want Naruto ? You make no sense " Shikamaru asked.
" That's not important, by my honor as a Quincy , i will end this pointless war " Uryū replied .
" Well let's see how well you can stop this . Kagemane Shuriken( 影真似手裏剣Shadow Possession Shuriken Jutsu) " Shikamaru stated as he swings his trench knives at Uryū . Uryū dodges it only to get caught in the shadow.
" Damn it ! " Uryū shouted as he struggles to break free .
" As you can see, this weapon gives my Shadow Possession Jutsu 5 times as much range and power while giving me a good enough melee attack to take you down " Shikamaru explained to Uryū as he comes at Uryū with a melee attack.
" I won't let you strike me with you blade " Uryū replied as he dodges the attack.
" Time to end this Quincy. Kage Nui (影縫いNinja Art: Shadow Stitching Jutsu) " Shikamaru chanted as he summons 30 shadow tendrils coming at Uryū . Uryū tries to dodge the tendrils but they extend up to 2,500 meters
" I can't evade them ! " Uryū said to himself.
" You're done for, your arrows range is only 1,800 meters wheres my Shadow Possession Jutsu has up to 2,500 meters " Shikamaru stated as the shadow tendrils are about to pierce Uryū.
Uryū suddenly pulls out a thin, silver-colored weapon that sports a glowing blue cuts all the shadowy tendrils on the ground and about to impale Uryū into pieces with a clean slash. Uryū then twirls the blade like weapon in his hand.
" That was too close for comfort ! " Uryū stated.
" What the hell is that ? " Shikamaru asked.
" Good thing i played it safe. Before Urahara snuck me out of the hospital, i took a few things that i thought would be useful . I used Urahara's abilities to find a hidden warehouse and borrowed a few items . This is Seele Schneider (German for Soul Cutter) the only edged Quincy weapon " Uryū explained to Shikamaru as he uses Hirenkyaku to appear behind Shikamaru and goes to slice Shikamaru.
" Oh no you don't ! " Shikamaru replied as he blocks the attack and pushes Uryū 20 feet away. His Chakra blade cracks from the attack " What the hell ? " Shikamaru asked shocked to see his blade crack.
" Seele Schneider (German for Soul Cutter) is similar to a chainsaw . The surface of the blade is formed by spirit particles which constantly revolves around 3,000,000 times per second " Uryū explained to Shikamaru.
" I see, then i'll make sure your blade doesn't touch me " Shikamaru replied as they both resume fighting.
Meanwhile 2 miles southwest of the Hakuteiken crater
Byakuya walks around the village struggling to make it to safety but he can barely move his body.
" I think i reached my limit ! " Byakuya said to himself as he struggles move his body. He's then suddenly hit with a kunai at his arm and he falls down .
" Looks like i got one Captain down, time to finish the job " Yamato stated as he leaps in the air to attack with his kunai aimed at Byakuya's head .
" Howl Zabimaru (蛇尾丸, Snake Tail) " Renji shouted as he transforms his sword into an even longer 6-part segmented blade . He pushes back Yamato 100 feet away but Yamato regains his balance.
" You think that would be enough to stop me ? " Yamato asked as he goes to attack Renji but he's stopped by Rukia.
" Tsugi no mai, Hakuren " Rukia stated as she fires a 6 foot diameter beam directly at Yamato. The blast freezes Yamato temporarily as Rukia then appears to grab Byakuya.
" Rukia, Renji ! " Byakuya said to them as he can barely move his body.
" We're here to save you ! " Renji stated.
" He's seriously injured , he needs to get to Isane immediately " Rukia said to Renji.
" I'll hold this guy off, you find a way to get Byakuya to safety " Renji said to Rukia.
" Right , i'll need some time ! " Rukia replied as she gathers up spiritual energy .
" Very well then ! " Renji replied as he then sees Yamato break out of the ice.
" Do you think that weak attack would do any damage to me ? " Yamato taunted revealing that he doesn't have a starch on him.
" Not even a starch ! " Rukia stated.
" He must be a Jōunin , Rukia get Byakuya to safety. I'll handle this guy " Renji said to Rukia as he charges up spiritual energy around his Shikai.
" Great Snake Lord, Slithering on the ground, silent from the start. Coil around me and protect me with your divine power " Rukia chanted as she uses an incantation to from white Reiatsu around her hands as it forms into long, white piece of cloth.
" I won't let you escape ! " Yamato shouted as he tires to send a wooden tendril at Rukia but he can't "What the hell ? I can't use my Wood Release Jutsu "
" Bankai: Hihiō Zabimaru (狒狒王蛇尾丸, Baboon King Snake Tail) " Renji shouted as he uses his Bankai to lunge at Yamato and crash him through a large 60 foot high tree.
" Bakudō # 54. Sentan Hakuja (千反白蛇, Thousand-Coil White Snake ) " Rukia chanted as she generates a long, white piece of cloth that is spun around to incorporate her and Byakuya within it's coils. The cloth tightens before, with a white flash, teleports them back to Squad 4 .
" So you wish to die kid ? " Yamato asked.
" Don't underestimate me ! " Renji answered as he swings his Bankai at Yamato.
" Mokuton: Daijurin(木遁・大樹林の術Wood Style: Branching Forest) " Yamato chanted as he tries to create a wave of tendrils but it fails to happen.
" Too slow ! " Renji shouted as he hits Yamato off guard pushing Yamato through 20 trees.
" What the hell ? Why isn't my Wood Style working ? It failed twice. I can't take this guy only holding back at least 1/3 of my power. Was i drugged up ? " Yamato thought to himself as he dodges Renji's Bankai attack.
Meanwhile at Las Noches
Aizen, Gin and Tōusen sit back watching the events of Konoha in the throne room.
" Looks like the drug Szayel developed worked like a charm " Aizen said to Gin.
" Indeed ! The wood user has the ability to stop our plan of destroying Konoha with his ability to suppress Bijuu Chakra . With the drugs ability to reduce the Chakra reserves of the user by 30 % , he won't be able to use any Wood Release Jutsus . Hopefully he would killed of by Abarai " Gin stated to Aizen.
" Renji isn't someone to take lightly . A Captain would need to have Bankai level power to counter his attacks, with only 1/3 his power. Yamato's Reiatsu is only 15,000 RYK, Renji at his highest level is around 30,000 to 45,000 RYK " Aizen explained to Gin.
" It doesn't matter who wins. The point is that we eliminated the Wood user " Tōusen replied.
" My question is what about Tsunade ? She can still find a way to counter the poison and negate it " Gin questioned.
" That's not a problem . It would take even her an hour to cure that level of poison and with Ukitake and Shunsui in the equation and with the Shinigami forces already heading closer to the inner city, i doubt she would be able to notice until it's too late " Aizen answered calmly.
Meanwhile at Squad 4's campground
Nanao and Momo are fully healed from the poison by Isane and are inside the main tent .
" You're both fully healed ! " Isane said to Momo and Nanao.
" Thanks for helping us out ! " Momo stated as she grabs her gas mask.
" Where would we be without you ? " Nanao asked .
" It's just my job ! " Isane modestly replied.
Suddenly Rukia reappears with Byakuya in her arms as the cloth unwraps after using Sentan Hakuja .
" Rukia ! " Momo said to her surprised to see Rukia holding Byakuya's bloody battered body .
" Byakuya's badly injured , he needs medical help ! " Rukia shouted panicked as she holds Byakuya's bloody battered body.
" Put him on the bed, i'll get to work on him immediately " Isane replied as she goes to heal Byakuya while he's on the hospital blood covered body stains the bed.
" Is he alright ? " Rukia asked.
" He's barely alive. His injuries are serious, if he's not treated within an hour, he might die " Isane answered.
" How bad are his injuries ? " Rukia asked.
" His artery next to the heart and diaphragm was cut. The blood flow is being stopped by his spiritual power however if it's not repaired soon enough, he might bleed out and die " Isane answered as she goes to work healing Byakuya.
Suddenly Sajin comes in holding Hitsugaya in his arms .
" Toshiro ! " Momo said shocked to see him badly injured as she rushes towards him.
" He needs treatment fast !" Sajin said to Isane.
" Damn it, i'm busy healing Byakuya " Isane said to Sajin.
" He might die in a few minutes ! " Sajin stated.
" I have my limits, i'm not Unohana ! " Isane replied in a bitter tone as the stress started to get to her and her Reiatsu is low from healing all the patients.
" Maybe we should request Unohana here, we need her badly " Nanao requested.
" Very well then , Nanao call Captain Unohana for me . Momo stay here and heal me out here " Isane commanded.
" Okay , i have some healing skills thanks to Izuru " Momo stated as she goes to help out by rushing to heal Hitsugaya.
" Keep Hitsugaya's vital signs intact as long as should be able to hold him out for a while until Unohana arrives here " Isane commanded.
" Looks like you're stressed out ! " Rukia said to Isane.
" Those damn Shinobi are overcrowding the medical tents with injured Shinigami " Isane replied as she shows signs of severe exhaustion.
" Renji is in trouble, i don't know how long he can hold out against an Jōunin , i got to help him out. I'll be back to aid you " Rukia said to Isane as she rushes out of the battlefield.
" I don't know how much longer i can hold out. I'm starting to reach my limits " Isane said to herself as she struggles to heal Byakuya.
Meanwhile at Squad 4's barracks.
Unohana is busy healing more patients being brought to her from the Senkaimon when she gets news about Isane.
" So she's reached her limit ? Damn it . Those Shinobi are really exhausting our resources. Hold on , i'll send someone there " Unohana said to Nanao .
" Someone there ? No one besides you can match Isane's healing abilities " Nanao questioned.
" I'll be sending Inoue there to aid the Shinigami there " Unohana said to Nanao.
" Inoue ? " Nanao asked.
" She's a talented medical student of mines who can rival Isane's healing would be escorted by Tessai Tsukabishi and Kisuke Urahara " Unohana explained to Nanao.
" How long would it take ? " Nanao asked.
" It would take 15-20 minutes. Kisuke is busy working on something to turn the tide in the war " Unohana replied.
" Damn it ! " Nanao replied.
" You have some Kidō skills right Nanao ? Help Isane out as much as possible " Unohana commanded.
" Okay then ! " Nanao replied.
Unohana hangs the phone as Orihime walks towards her.
" All the patients have been healed Captain " Orihime said to Unohana.
" Take a break for now, you need to save your strength for when you go to Konoha " Unohana said to Orihime.
" So i get to meet Ichigo again ? " Orihime asked.
" Yep, you would be escorted by Kisuke and Tessai for safety reasons. You are not allowed to leave the Squad 4 campgrounds , you're still not combat ready and capable against the Shinobi and Arrancar " Unohana said to Orihime.
"Okay ! " Orihime replied as she sits down to rest .
" Orihime, you're our biggest trump card. You have surpassed even my abilities to heal the injured and training you to use your Reiatsu better and in the human body. I'm proud to proclaim you're my honorary student " Unohana modesty stated to Orihime.
" Thanks Unohana . I wonder how Ichigo is doing right now ? " Orihime asked as she thinks of Ichigo.
Yamanaka District
10:45 A.M. Ichigo and Lee clash attacks with each other . Lee is trying to fight the strain of his 4th gate while fighting Bankai Ichigo. Ichigo comes at Lee with an horizontal slash aimed at Lee's head but Lee has a roundhouse kick aimed at Ichigo's head causing a 300 foot collision which pushes both of them away.
Lee and Ichigo clash again releasing an intense amount of spiritual power and Chakra. Lee is using his left fist covered within green Chakra while Ichigo is surrounded with black Reiatsu with an red outline . The second collision releases another immense wave of spiritual power.
Lee goes for a roundhouse kick aimed at Ichigo's head but Ichigo blocks the kick with both hands on his sword being pushed back 50 feet away. Ichigo counters and goes to strike Lee but Lee dashes past Ichigo and appears behind him. Lee goes to kick Ichigo with a right side kick but Ichigo blocks with one hand and goes for a downward two handed vertical slash but Lee uses a backflip kick to kick Ichigo's left arm causing the blow to miss and Lee dropkicks Ichigo 300 feet away and then hits him with a high kick to the chin causing Ichigo to be sent flying high in the air.
Ichigo regains his balance at 330 feet and goes to attack Lee.
" Getsuga Tenshō " Ichigo chanted as he swings down his sword creating a powerful blast to hit Lee but Lee uses Shunshin to move at 32,083 ft/sec (21,875 MPH ).
" You're too slow ! Leap Blooming Wind " Lee chanted as he punches Ichigo down but before he falls Lee appears behind him and kicks him in the back and then leaps 500 feet in the air and does a series of 20 spinning kicks hitting Ichigo's stomach and then kicked 300 feet higher . Lee leaps 1,000 feet high and punches Ichigo into the ground causing a 1,000 foot radius explosion.
Ichigo struggles to get back up. Ichigo's pupils are glowing blue while his eyeballs are black. His body is surrounded with black red Reiatsu which reduced the damage of Lee's attack. Lee goes to finish Ichigo with a flying punch.
" Oh no you don't ! Getsuga Tenshō " Ichigo stated as Ichigo swings his sword creating a blue wave at Lee.
" You got to do a different attack from that " Lee said to Ichigo as he dodges the blast only to see Ichigo behind him with a black Getsuga Tenshō covering his blade.
" Kuroi Getsuga (黒月牙, Black Moon Fang)" Ichigo shouted as he creates a blast at point blast range slashing Lee's right shoulder to his right elbow causing a mild gash.
" ARRGH ! " Lee shouted in pain as he struggles to move his arm.
" I found out your weakness, the longer you use that Gates form, the more strain you put on your body. Also every time you do your over the top Taijutsu techniques, you sacrifice speed for power for a brief moment. While you're still faster than me, as long as i know when to attack you and as long as i can shield myself with my Reiatsu. I can beat you " Ichigo said to Lee.
" I see, i guess you have me figured out. Nothing less from a combat genius of your level ,you even managed to keep your Getsuga Tenshō within Tensa Zangetsu to augment it's sword swing. You're much like Naruto in a way. If anything you look a bit like him himself " Lee stated.
" So you know Naruto ? " Ichigo asked.
" Naruto is one of my friends, he's like me. We were both without natural talent . I was not born with a whole lot of natural talent But i work all hard and I never give up. That is my gift. That is my Ninja way ! " Lee explained to Ichigo.
" So where is Naruto ? " Ichigo asked.
" I refuse to tell you such a thing. I'm far from done ,i know you're still hiding your true power. Show me that power " Lee stated as he tries to move his damaged right arm.
" You're seriously injured, you can't hope to fight me with just one arm " Ichigo said to Lee.
" Then i'll end this all with the last gate i can unlock " Lee replied as his body then glows green.
" Damn it what now ? " Ichigo stated as he sees Chakra surging everywhere.
" Fifth gate: Gate of Limit (杜門, Tomon)" Lee shouted as his body starts to ground beneath Ichigo shakes and breaks the ground causing rocks to shoot up as a jet of Green Chakra shoots up. Lee unleashes an immense surge in power has created a massive 1,500 foot tornado around the area and sucks up anything nearby him sucking up the ruins of the neighborhood.
" Damn it, what an immense whirlwind, all this caused by simply releasing his Chakra ? " Ichigo said to himself as he struggles to see Lee.
" Here i come Ichigo ! " Lee stated as he dashes at 60,000ft/sec(40,900 MPH) moving so fast that Ichigo can't even see him .
" He's too fast, i can't react ! " Ichigo stated as he barely blocks Lee's punch with his Bankai only to be sent flying 1,000 feet westward. Lee appears right in front of him.
" Come on Ichigo, show me your full power so we can fight as warriors. I guarantee holding back on me won't help you anymore " Lee said to Ichigo as he tries to ignore the strain on his body.
" Save it, i can still win this without Hollowfiying " Ichigo replied as he gets back up to fight him.
At the same time
Third Training Ground
10:45 A.M. Naruto and Soifon clash attacks with each other. With Soifon suffering from mid leg injuries, her speed has been reduced by 4 times going from 60,000 ft/sec(40,900 MPH) to 15,000 ft/sec (10,225 MPH). Naruto is still slower than Soifon only moving at 12833.4 ft/sec (8750 MPH ) but Naruto isn't being speedbiltzed as he was before thanks to landing a tactical hit with Ōdama Rasengan.
Soifon uses a high roundhouse kick but Naruto blocks with his right forearm but Soifon does a leg sweeping kick aimed at Naruto's ribs but Naruto jumps over the kick and does a jump kick but Soifon ducks over the kick.
" Hakuda # 9. Udehanma (腕ハンマ Arm Hammer )" Soifon chanted as she tires hit Naruto in the back of his head with her right arm like a hammer but Naruto blocks with his right wrist and goes to punch her but Soifon uses Shunpo to escape the strike.
" Damn it ! " Naruto shouted as he misses his strike. Soifon goes to attack him again.
" Hakuda 2. Kyōseiteki Nipāmu (強制的にパームForce Palm)" Soifon chanted as she creates a short range shockwave from the palm of her hand that pushes back Naruto 100 feet away but it's another clone.
" Got you ! " Naruto shouted as he does 14 body punches per second for 10 seconds in Soifon's stomach then hits her with an uppercut that knocks her in the air.
" Damn you ! " Soifon shouted as she goes to attack Naruto with a flying punch smashing Naruto into the ground only to see it's a clone. 4 clones of Naruto surround Soifon.
" Na! "one Naruto clone shouted as he punches Soifon in the face " Ru! " the other Naruto clones shouted as they all surround Soifon " To! " all the clones shouted as they kick Soifon into the air "Uzumaki Barrage!" the real Naruto chanted as he hits Soifon with a rotating heel drop to the back of the head as he smashes her head into the ground with violent force creating an implosion wave but it turned out to be another afterimage.
" Got you ! Bakduō # 4 Hainawa (這縄,Crawling Rope)" Soifon chanted as she summons an energy rope to entangle Naruto's arms.
" Damn it ! " Naruto shouted .
" I must admit, your ability to combine Ninjutsu and Taijutsu, it's an ingenious killing method. However you're finished, i'll stun you and make sure you won't weave another hand seal " Soifon stated as she hits Naruto's check again but she hit a clone.
" Got you now ! Uzumaki Whirlpool Formation " Naruto chanted as he creates twelve Shadow Clones, each armed with a kunai, forming a defensive circle, with Naruto in the middle.
" I see, you think that would be enough to stop me ? " Soifon stated as she takes out her sword and uses highspeed to cut all the clones down. " He's up to something, why would he be using that many clones at once ? Is he trying to wear me down or is he stalling my attention for a stronger attack ? " Soifon thought to herself as she goes to attack the real Naruto.
Naruto then clashes with Soifon's Shikai with his kunai with each strike pushing Soifon back 2 feet . Naruto then cuts Soifon's forehead lightly with just the kunai swinging 5 feet from her. Naruto then charges at Soifon and hits her in the gut with a uppercut sending her flying 200 feet in the air . Soifon recovers and goes to strike Naruto hitting him through the ground only to see it's a clone and the real Naruto coming at her with a
" Rasengan " Naruto chanted as he moves at 12833.4 ft/sec (8750 MPH ).
" Shit ! Kyōkonaishi ( 強固な意志 Iron Will ) " Soifon chanted as she blocks with both arms against the strike. The force of the blow causes her gauntlet to crack. She then see the clone disappear " Impossible, that was a clone ? " Soifon said shocked to see the real Naruto behind her rushing at her with his clone.
" You're finished ! Ōdama Rasengan( 大玉螺旋丸Great Ball Spiralling Sphere)" Naruto shouted as he goes to strike Soifon .
" Bakudō # 39 . Enkosen ( 円閘扇,Arc Shield) " Soifon chanted as she blocks the attack with an energy shield but the attack blast through it and the force sends Soifon flying 1,300 feet away .
" You're a fool to underestimate me woman , time to finish this " Naruto said to Soifon while she struggles to get back up but she points her finger at Naruto.
" Bakudo 61 Rikujokoro ( 六杖光牢Six Rods Prison of Light) " Soifon chanted as she summons six thin, wide beams of light that slam into Naruto's midsection.
" What ? " Naruto shouted shocked as he struggles to move out of the Kidō.
" I got you now kid. There's no escaping this Kidō. Forget about trying to break out the Kidō with brute force " Soifon taunted.
" I can't move ! " Naruto shouted as he struggles and squirms his body.
" Time to finish my job ! " Soifon arrogantly stated one to see it was also a clone " What ? "
Suddenly a buzz sound is heard from a distance. a massive release of wind Chakra from a 1,000 foot distance in the woods gives off a loud bell-like screech . Soifon then sees the real Naruto with two Shadow Clones and a third one next to him making the Rasengan appear as a giant fūma shuriken, with the Rasengan in the center remaining a perfect sphere.
" I needed some time to form this Jutsu, thankfully you have been distracted by my Shadow Clones . I'll use the last of my Chakra to beat you with my new Jutsu. Not even a Bankai could defeat this next attack " Naruto stated as a massive wave of wind around him causes Reiatsu waves causing Soifon to shake in terror.
" What is that ? That's some screeching, worse yet is the deadly wind currents around his hands, it's like a hurricane is being formed in the palm of his hands .That Chakra is enough to kill me if i'm careful " Soifon stated to herself as she goes to get her distance.
" This is for you ! " Naruto shouted as he rushes at Soifon with his three clones .
" I'll stop you from using that attack. Hadō #63. Raikōhō (雷吼炮, Thunder Roar Sear ) " Soifon chanted as she fires massive concentrated strike of electricity causing a massive explosion that levels everything within a 1,000 foot radius killing the clones " Where's the real one ? " Soifon asked herself.
" I'm behind you " Naruto shouted as he is 20 feet behind her.
" Shit ! I can't dodge him ! " Soifon shouted as she is about to get hit by Naruto's Jutsu but the attack dies out last second just 19 cm of Soifon's back with a small 2 inch diameter hole on her Captains robe next to the squad insignia.
" Damn it, it didn't work ! " Naruto shouted as his hand is still near Soifon and he has no time to react. Soifon uses Shunpo and kicks Naruto in the face slamming him through 20 trees 500 feet away.
" Looks like you still need work kid. That Jutsu failure revealed everything about your attack. It seems you have yet to fully master that Jutsu. While it's definitively fatal to any Captain level Shinigami, as long as i stay far away or increase my speed to the point you can't hit me then your attack is harmless " Soifon explained to Naruto
" Well you can't run any faster since i damaged your legs, i'll get to you eventually " Naruto replied.
" Shunkō ( 瞬閧, Flash Cry ) " Soifon chanted as her Captain's robe is shredded by the force of the Reiatsu as her body is surrounded with a massive white Reiatsu. Soifon is right in front of him wearing a sleeveless one piece commander outfit with her back as well small portions of the sides of her breasts and thighs exposed including the small g string like panties she wears.
" What's with the getup ? I can see your boobs, apparently you never heard of a bra " Naruto stated looking at her boobs.
" Shut up ! You're the second pervert who saw me in this form and you would be the very last " Soifon shouted in anger and fury . Soifon dashes at Naruto moving at 750,000 ft/sec (51,125 MPH).
" Crap, she's so fast! " Naruto said to himself as he can't see Soifon's movements at all . Soifon hits Naruto in the stomach with as powerful strike. Soifon then lands 50 punches on Naruto in 3 seconds causing him to stagger back.
" You're mine ! " Soifon shouted as she leaps in the air and goes a powerful strike . Naruto barely dodges the punch as it levels everything within a 1,000 foot radius .
" Rasengan " Naruto chanted as he moves at 12833.4 ft/sec (8750 MPH ) but Soifon easily catches his Rasengan touching the rotating sphere and negating it.
" Shunkō instantly neutralize an opponent's movement. Ninjutsu has no effect on me while i use this power, this also increases my speed, strength and power by 5 times . You never stood a chance against me " Soifon arrogantly taunted as he kicks Naruto in the stomach .
" Damn it ! " Naruto shouted as he struggles to get up.
" You still wish to fight ? You're foolish to continue to fight me. You're not a real Ninja and guess what, you would never be Hokage, you should give up and come quietly " Soifon taunted with a smirk on her face.
" You should give up… on me giving up!" Naruto replied as he spits out blood from his mouth.
" Then i'll have to break you willpower to pieces " Soifon shouted as she goes to attack Naruto.
Meanwhile at East Konoha
Kakashi and Gai see a 1,500 foot diameter, 20,000 foot high whirlwind of Chakra within the Yamanaka district 8 miles northwest of their location.
" Rock Lee is using the Fifth Gate " Gai said to Kakashi as he dodges a sword strike from Shunsui.
" Just who is fighting Lee and how strong are they to push Lee this far ? " Kakashi asked as he ducks over a horizontal slash that Ukitake does against him while blocking a vertical slash.
" You guys shouldn't daze out like that. Focus on your opponents " Ukitake said to Kakashi as he swings his sword at Kakashi which Kakashi blocks.
Meanwhile at the Uchiha District
Sakura comes at Chad with a series of strong punches using the full extent of her Chakra enhanced strength. Chad dodges a punch from Sakura only to be hit by a powerful kick and sent flying 300 feet high.
" Come on, you're too weak ! " Sakura shouted as she hits Chad with another punch smashing him through the ground.
" Damn it, i can barely fight against her " Chad said to himself as he gets back up from the vicious punch. Sakura dashes at Chad with Chakra covering her hands.
" Iryō meidensurasshu (医療メイデンスラッシュ Medical Maiden Slash) " Sakura stated as she turns her palm into a Chakra blade to cut Chad but Chad barely blocks the blow as his right arm is grazed from the blow.
" El Directo (Spanish for The Direct) " Chad chanted as he releases a huge blast of spiritual energy that hits Sakura with a powerful punch creating a blast radius destroying everything within a 500 foot radius leveling 18 more buildings but Sakura uses one hand to deflect the blast power and comes at Chad with her own punch from the sky.
" Ōkashō (桜花衝 Cherry Blossom Clash) " Sakura chanted as she creates a 600 foot radius explosion causing Chad to be sent flying 300 feet away barely dodging the punch.
" Sacador Targeta( Spanish for Punch Blast ) " Chad chanted as he shoots a blast hitting Sakura 5 times but the attack fails to flinch her. " Not even a starch " Chad said shocked to see Sakura unfazed.
" That was pathetic ! " Sakura shouted as she hits Chakra with right hand coated in blue Chakra in the stomach causing Chad to violently cough out blood then she punches him with her left arm coated in Chakra as well in the jaw causing it the crack as he's sent flying into another building.
" Take this ! El Directo (Spanish for The Direct) " Chad chanted as he charges with his hand glowing with blue spiritual energy coming at Sakura.
" Yuki sakura no dansu (雪桜のダンス Snow Cherry Blossom Dance) " Sakura chanted as she throws 3 scrolls that burst into hundreds of paper bombs and they all exploded creating a massive 400 foot radius explosion. Chad blocks the blast with his Reiatsu but his shirt is virtually gone and his body is mildly burned from the attack.
Chad then uses Sonído to appear behind Sakura and tires to hit her with his punch.
" Brazo Saltar De Gigante (Spanish for Leaping Arm of a Giant ) " Chad chanted as he does a powerful punch to hit Sakura but Sakura dodges and counterattacks.
" BKyōken (強肩 Strong Arm ) " Sakura chanted as she uses a strong punch to take Chad down sending him flying 200 feet into a telephone pole.
" Damn it, i can't move. My body took so much of a beating " Chad said to himself as he struggles to get back up.
" Looks like your on your last legs. Time to put you out your misery Sen mētāsutoraiku (千メーターストライク1000 Meter Punch)" Sakura shouted as she comes towards Chad and hits him with a powerful punch creating a massive 500 foot radius explosion.
Chad with his right arm turned into shield that extends from his hand to some distance beyond his forearm with the same intricate pattern as before, surrounding what appears to be Hollow-like teeth in the center and what appears to be a rose like pattern or skeletal nose and eyes near the end. He also loses the wing-like protrusion which extended from his shoulder, replaced with an hexagonal plate sitting over his shoulder.
" It seems like the Soul of my Abuelo flows through this right arm, i call it Gigante Amable El Escudo (Spanish for Gentle Giant's Shield ) " Chad said as the blast did minor damage to him. Chad is within a 60 foot diameter, 20 foot deep crater.
" Impossible, my punch didn't even flinch him " Sakura said to herself as she pushes herself back.
" Now allow me to show you my true power " Chad said to Sakura as he punches Sakura so hard and fast she is sent flying 1,200 feet without any warning.
" Damn it, he's so fast i didn't even see when he moved . How is he increasing his power so much ? " Sakura asked herself as she then goes after Chad and goes to kick Chad with a roundhouse kick but Chad effortlessly blocks the kick with his shield arm.
" Did you get slower ? " Chad asked calmly as he backhands Sakura 500 feet away through a building . Chad uses Sonído to move right in front of Sakura .
" He's so fast ! " Sakura said to herself as she is hit but another punch . Sakura is then sent through 4 more houses before Chad appears behind her again.
" Where are you looking at ? " Chad asked Sakura as he goes to punch her but Sakura uses Shunshin to move at 3,666.6 ft/sec (2,500 MPH).
" This guy is strong but i still have the edge in speed, there's no way that big guy could outmatch me " Sakura stated as she dashes to attack Chad only to see him in front of her moving at 7333.3 ft/sec (5,000 MPH). The dark haired man then punches the pink haired kunoichi in the face .
" You really did get slower ! " Chad said to the medic-nin as he punches her down in the ground causing a massive 600 foot implosion wave.
" This guy is immensely strong, i need to step up my game " Sakura stated to herself as she comes at him with a Chakra enhanced right hook only to be hit by his right arm and sent flying 600 feet away.
" El Directo (Spanish for The Direct) " Chad chanted as he releases a huge blast of spiritual energy that hits Sakura with a powerful punch creating a blast radius destroying everything within a 1,000 foot radius leveling 50 more buildings.
Out of the smoke emerges Sakura who was badly burned from the blast. The blast burns off most of her clothes and gives her body severe burns. The skin on Sakura's arms is almost completely burned away and her the left side of her face is mildly burned.
" Damn it , how are you so strong ? " Sakura asked as she struggles to heal her wounds.
" It's amazing how stubborn you are , i must admit i never fought a foe as tough as you before " Chad said to Sakura.
" Why do you fight on the side of the Shinigami ? You're a human of incredible power, the Soul Society is out to destroy this very world and enslave this world " Sakura questioned.
" I don't fight for the Soul Society, i fight for my friends. Ichigo has always been there for me and i owe it to him to be there for him " Chad answered.
" So you're the friend of Ichigo Kurosaki ? I should've guessed that " Sakura stated.
" So who are you ? " Chad asked.
" I'm Naruto's best friend ,i'll do whatever it takes to help him " Sakura answered.
" It seems you and me have the same goal . I trained hard to get this power you see in front of you. I cursed being powerless and unable to help my friends but now i have that power " Chad explained to Sakura.
" It's funny you mention that. 3 years ago, i was weak and powerless now i'm able to defend my friends and help then out. Let me show you the result of 3 years of training " Sakura chanted as she charges Chakra from both her fist and causes the ground to shatter and break around her.
" Even that, you still have one trick left ? " Chad asked.
" This is my strongest attack . Ōkarakuen ( 桜花楽園 Cherry Blossom Paradise )" Sakura chanted as her arms glow with pink Chakra. her body is surround by a strong green spiritual power as green as her eyes and her eyes become sky blue
" Fine then i'll use my full power too! Brazo Izquierda del Diablo (Spanish for Left Arm of the Devil") " Chad chanted as he covers his left arm all the way up to the shoulder with a liquid which solidifies into a form of armor. The arm is white, with a red stripe running down the length of the center. His fingertips of red diamond shaped marks on them. A spike protrudes from the shoulder and two more resembling claws extend over his chest.
" Let's see whose resolve is stronger Chad, yours or mines " Sakura said to Chad as she comes at Chad with a two fisted strike swung like a hammer.
" Very well then ! " Chad replied as he uses his left arm to block Sakura's two handed Ōkarakuen as it creates a massive 800 foot radius explosion destroying 40 buildings in the area.
The smoke clears up to reveal that Sakura left behind a 76 foot diameter, 21 foot deep crater shaped like a flower generating 39.4 Tons of TNT force with her strongest punch . Chad is revealed to be in the crater standing where he was originally before the blast without a single starch on him.
" Impossible, there's no way you can be standing from that attack " Sakura said shocked to see her strongest attack was repelled so easily.
" It seems your attack wasn't good enough " Chad replied.
" It took down a Lieutenant in one hit while she was at full power. To deflect my attack so easily mean you must of... " Sakura explained.
" Reached the level of a Captain ! " Chad replied.
" I see i will just have to go beyond my limits " Sakura replied as she gains some distance from Chad.
" Time to end this " Chad stated as his fist glows with spiritual energy. His fingertips charge in the forms of five disks of crackling electricity as his body emits a blue aura.
" Ōkarakuen ( 桜花楽園 Cherry Blossom Paradise ) " Sakura shouted as she charges with a two handed fist strike gaining momentum and speed to hit Chad at full force.
" La Muerte ( Spanish for The Death ) " Chad chanted as his fist clashes with Sakura's Ōkarakuen.
The collision creates an explosion leveling everything within a 2,000 foot radius, destroying what's left of the district . The smoke clears up to reveal a 23 foot deep, 86 foot diameter skull-shape crater produced by the explosive force that was the equivalent to 56.3 tons of TNT . Sakura is buried within the crater. Sakura is severely wounded with the skin on Sakura's arms is almost completely burned away and her the left side of her face is mildly burned . She also has both her arms and legs and 3 ribs broken as well as torn clothes only her bra and her panties remain. Sakura struggles to heal herself.
" Damn...it ! " Sakura shouted as she passes out.
Chad is standing at the end of the crater barely able to walk and exhausted of his Reiatsu. Chad is moderately injured with fractures in his right arm and some internal bleeding in the stomach region as well as a fractured jaw bone but nothing fatal. Chad lost his shirt and is now walking bare chested with a heavily bruised chest and face.
" The truth is, I don't like doing things like dealing the deathblow to opponents who have lost the will to fight. Because you fought me with all your might, I was able to grasp my power. Thanks. Because of you, I'll be able to tough it out ahead. I'll spare your life and pray for your good fortune." Chad said to Sakura as he leaves the area.
Meanwhile at Hyōten Hyakkasō tower
Tsunade finishes with Neji's healing . Neji has been fully healed of all his wounds however he's seriously exhausted of Chakra and is out cold.
" I'm done ! " Tsunade said to herself but she then notices a explosion 2 miles southeast of her location and senses Sakura's disappearing Chakra " Sakura ! " Tsunade shouted.
" Lady Tsunade, we got bigger problems, it's the Shinigami. They are advancing downtown " Katsuyu stated.
" Damn it , going the looks of things Shikamaru isn't going to last much longer given he's used his Shadow Possession to it's limits and Lee is overexerting himself using the 5th gate .With Sakura and Shizune down , it's up to me now " Tsunade stated.
" All the people in the village have been evacuated safely Lady Tsunade. We only lost several thousand due to the crossfire " Katsuyu said to Tsunade.
" Hate to brag but had not for you, the death toll in this village would be far worse " Tsunade said to Katsuyu.
" What's your next plan of action ? " Katsuyu asked.
" I'll contact Ino through my clone that already finished healing Kurenai and give her instructions . I'll also create another clone to carry Neji back to the hospital were he would be safe and taken care of " Tsunade stated to Katsuyu.
" Okay then , what do you plan to do ? " Katsuyu asked.
" It's time a send a message ! " Tsunade replied as she makes a shadow clone to carry Neji away around the melted ice and water to the hospital. Tsunade goes to walk causally to the downtown district.
Meanwhile at the Nara District
Uryū and Shikamaru draw their battle to a close, fighting in the ruins of Shikamaru's neighborhood . Shikamaru throws his left blade into the ground and has it extend to Uryū 1,300 feet west of him.
" Got you now ! " Uryū stated as he sends Shadow tendrils everywhere.
" You think that i'll fall for those ? " Uryū taunted as he cuts all the shadows down using Seele Schneider but Shikamaru then uses a shadow tendril to throw the left blade right Uryū .
" Kageyose (影寄せShadow Pull Jutsu ) " Shikamaru chanted as he pulls the kunai at Uryū but Uryū dodges the blade as it hits a building. Uryū then notices a shadow tendril coming out the kunai from the Chakras blade.
" Damn it, he can extend the range of his Shadow Possession using those kunai not only to attack up close but throw it so it's shadow can extend but using his shadow tendril to throw it . I never thought i would meet a fighter of his intelligence level " Uryū thought to himself as he barely evades the tendril .
" You're not getting away ! " Shikamaru stated as he has a shadow tentacle pick up the Chakra blade and throw it at Uryū in mid air .
" I can't dodge in mid air ,i'm fucked if that hits me " Uryū said to himself as he takes out a wire from right arm and latches on to a nearby tree 100 feet away" Silber Draht (German for silver wire)" Uryū chanted as he uses the silver wire like a grappling hook to safely evade the blade.
" Not bad, you're more impressive than i thought " Shikamaru said to Uryū .
" I got to give you credit, you're making things much tougher than i thought. There's no way you're really a Special Jōunin are you ? " Uryū asked.
" We'll i have no interest in wanting to become a Jōunin, that's too much work and it's such a drag for me. I didn't even want to be a Special Jōunin either " Shikamaru said to Uryū as he stands there and has a shadow tendril come at Uryū .
" Nice try, trying to bait me with a casual conversation won't work " Uryū replied as he dodges the shadow tendril only to see Shikamaru behind him with his right hand holding a Chakra blade . Uryū blocks using Seele Schneider only to see himself trapped in a shadow tendril.
" I already figured out your weapon Uryū . Your weapon isn't for cutting ,due the your blades rapid vibrations, it steals the Chakra of anything it cuts . Given you were playing defensive all this time, i figured out that you were trying to trick me into attacking you head on so you can absorb spiritual energy from me increasing your attack power and giving you the edge in battle " Shikamaru explained to Uryū .
" You managed to figure that all out in just one clash ? " Uryū asked shocked with an expression on his face as if he witnessed a child get run over by a bus .
" I also remember you saying Quinces absorb energy from the environment and they only fight with bows and arrows. That combined with your defensive stances and your obvious lack of polished sword techniques, i was able to read through your trump card " Shikamaru explained to Uryū .
" Damn it, he's far too intelligent to outwit so easily. I just wish i was fighting against an female Gothic lolita Arrancar with a cocky ,brash personality who relies more on power than brains and wasn't able to decipher my moves this easily instead of him " Uryū thought to himself as he tries to think of a way out of this.
" End of the line Quincy ! " Shikamaru stated as he then has the shadowy tendrils come towards Uryū .
" Tilt the goblet to the west ! Wolke ( German for Cloud) " Uryū chanted as he uses a silver tube in his pocket to create a large blast breaking him out of Shikamaru's Shadow Possession and binding Shikamaru.
" He still has some trick in his sleeve " Shikamaru thought to himself as he then sees Uryū from the smoke aiming his arrow at him using Ginrei Kojaku .
" Seele Schneider ( German for Soul Cutter ) " Uryū chanted as he fires an arrow right at Shikamaru .
" Shit it's right after me ! " Shikamaru shouted as he blocks with arrow with his Shadow trench knives but they were destroyed and an massive 500 foot radius implosion wave occur with the shadow still on the ground.
" Direct hit ! " Uryū said to himself only to see that Shikamaru is gone.
" Not bad , had not for my Kage no ryokō(影の旅行Shadow Travel ) , i would of died. Judging by those other arrows, you only have 4 left in your disposal. You better think clearly how to use them otherwise you'll die " Shikamaru said to Uryū .
" I see, thanks for being so generous . Feel the wrath of battle and accept this sacred chalice Heizen (German for Heating) " Uryū chanted as he creates a transparent, rectangular beam of energy from the silver tubes that come at Shikamaru but Shikamaru dodges the attack .
" You need to do better than that ! " Shikamaru said to Uryū only to see Uryū behind him pointing southward.
" Seele Schneider ( German for Soul Cutter ) " Uryū chanted as he fires another arrow right at Shikamaru . Shikamaru dodges the arrow as the arrow travels up to 2,000 feet.
" I got to get serious, one hit of that arrow and i'm a goner " Shikamaru said to himself as he then sees Uryū firing regular arrows at him.
" Pfeil Regen (German/Dutch for Arrow Rain )" Uryū chanted as he rains down thousands of arrows at Shikamaru.
" Kage Shoyūkasa (影所有傘Shadow Possession Umbrella) " Shikamaru countered as he uses his shadow possession to form a series of tendrils to protect himself from the arrow rain and uses his Kage no ryoko to move 2,000 feet westward. He then emerges only to see Uryū above him.
" Seele Schneider ( German for Soul Cutter ) " Uryū chanted as he fires another arrow right at Shikamaru . Shikamaru dodges the arrow as the arrow hits the ground and Shikamaru goes to pull out a scroll.
" Kageshoji Bakuhatsu Bakudaname (影の所持爆発紙の爆弾の雨 Shadow Possession Exploding Paper Bomb Rain ) " Shikamaru chanted as he throws a scroll 300 feet in the air releasing 500 exploding kunai with wire strings
" That's not going to work ! Licht Regen (German/Dutch for Light Rain) " Uryū chanted as a large amount of Reiryoku is gathered at Uryū 's left shoulder, similar when he used the Quincy: Letzt Stil firing a volley arrows at 2,400 shots per second taking out all the paper bombs before they can explode.
" That's impossible, he shot all of them so fast, they didn't even explode " Shikamaru thought to himself as he tries to look around for Uryū .
" Hirenkyaku: Tanz Meter Licht (German for God Step:Dancing Feet of Light )" Uryū chanted as he moves at 12833.4 ft/sec (8750 MPH ) creating 12 afterimages moving around Shikamaru.
" He's moving so fast, i can see 12 of him " Shikamaru thought to himself.
" As you see, by absorbing that much spiritual power from the environment, i can temporarily give myself the speed to match even Captain class fighters using Bankai " Uryū said to Shikamaru as he shoots 12 arrows through Shikamaru. 4 hit his right thigh , 4 hit his left shoulder and 4 hit his back sticking out his back as he falls to the ground.
" ARRRGH ! " Shikamaru shouted in pain as he struggles to get back up. Uryū then aims his fourth Selee at Shikamaru.
" Good bye ! Seele Schneider ( German for Soul Cutter ) " Uryū chanted as he fires an arrow right at Shikamaru . Shikamaru barley dodges it by an 1 inch as it hits 2,00 feet away eastward. The arrow grazes Shikamaru's check.
" Damn, that was too close for comfort ! " Shikamaru said to himself as he struggles to stand and breath as blood comes out of his wounds.
" You're at your limit Shinobi, you can't weave any more hand seals without the use of your Chakra " Uryū said to Shikamaru
" I can't get up! " Shikamaru shouted as blood comes out of his wounds and he starts to bleed out.
" Time to end this with one last shot , i'm afraid this battle goes to me Shikamaru Nara " Uryū stated as he's about to fire his shot.
" Kageyose (影寄せShadow Pull Jutsu ) " Shikamaru chanted as he has shadows surround Uryū and entangle him in a rope like thread paralyzing his entire body and binding his arms and legs together with rope like shadows using the last of his Chakra to pull the exploding paper bombs onto Uryū and covering Uryū with paper bombs. He links the paper bombs scattered across the across the neighborhood with the paper bombs and has his shadow link to the paper bomb he put in a gas pipeline building.
" What the hell ? " Uryū asked shocked to see himself ensnared in another trap.
" I still have enough Chakra for this final attack , go figure huh " Shikamaru stated exhausted of Chakra .
" You still had an ace in you hole ? How long were you planning to do this ? " Uryū asked as he tries to break out .
" The moment you saw through my ruse to have you blow up the gas pipeline. I set a few paper bombs to key points in the neighborhood while i was hiding in those buildings you leveled earlier. I used exploding tags with a special shape charge to punch small but deep holes in the ground allowing my shadow to pass through the sewage pipes and sewers which make it easy to use my Shadow pull to get through " Shikamaru explained to Uryū .
" Damn it ! " Uryū replied.
" My Chakra blades weren't out to kill you directly, just distract you while i put the finishing touches to my plan. After realizing how powerful you were with Seele Schneider, then used Kageshoji Bakuhatsu Bakudaname (影の所持爆発紙の爆弾の雨 Shadow Possession Exploding Paper Bomb Rain ) " to release 500 exploding kunai with wire strings. These aren't rigged to explode on impact as with normal tags. They were really like timed explosives that went off once a certain Chakra frequency triggers it " Shikamaru stated.
" You had this all planned out from the start ? How can you make so many moves so fast ? " Uryū asked.
"I hate to brag but i can quickly think ten moves ahead of my opponent with over a hundred strategies ready to be used, but my real skill is choosing the best one. You proved to be a very tough opponent in terms of speed, power, range and intelligence but i had beaten you in your own game " Shikamaru explained to Uryū as he takes out a lighter .
" What are you doing ? " Uryū asked.
" I have no Chakra left however i have enough explosives to level everything within a city block, combined with the fact i linked them all by wire strings to the main gas pipeline to in this neighborhood, it would be more than enough to kill even a Captain. There's no way you would walk out of here alive " Shikamaru answered as he lights up his lighter and is about to move.
" Funny thing about all this is that i was planing to do the same thing to you " Uryū replied as he drops his Seele Schneider to the ground as 2,000 foot diameter Pentagon around the placement of the fifth Seele Schneider , wrapping and binding Shikamaru's legs to the ground with dense spirit particles.
" Impossible, i thought you can't attack with your bow or arrows " Shikamaru shouted shocked to see himself binded down as well and struggles to break free. Uryū 's right arm is free but the rest of the body is trapped in the shadow net.
" That just means you didn't see that one coming. Allow me to explain, when i realized hitting you with Seele Schneider with headshot or heartshot would be difficult therefore i deliberately fired a series of arrows to force you on the defensive while purposely missing my Seele Schneider to form my pentagon around you. After setting up the first 4 arrows down, i waited for you to attack me with your strongest Jutsu before dropping the final one trapping you in the barrier "
" Damn it ! " Shikamaru shouted.
" This attack is called Sprenger (German for Explosion ). The Seele Schneiders function as accumulators, gathering the necessary amount of spirit particles to create the explosion. The liquid inside this silver tube acts as the trigger. Anything in this pentagon would be obliterated , when activated, causes a massive explosion within its borders " Uryū explained to Shikamaru as he holds the silver tube in his right hand.
" Are you insane, if you release it here, you would blow yourself up " Shikamaru stated concerned.
"There's no other option " Uryū replied.
" Very well then, let's see who gets the first and final strike Kage Shoji Shūban(影所持終盤Shadow Possession Endgame) " Shikamaru said to Uryū as he drops his lighter.
" Fine by me ! Sprenger (German for Explosion ) " Uryū replied as he drops the sliver tube . Both of them manage to break out each other's Jutsus and try to make a run for it but it's too late for both of them to escape as the explosion occurs as both Sprenger and Kage Shoji Shūban explode.
The first explosion creates a 1,000 foot diameter beam of light that shoots a blue laser like beam into the air up to 20,000 feet high lighting up the village sky bright blue for 5 seconds before a massive fiery explosion occurs leveling the entire Nara neighborhood and causing a 1,500 foot radius explosion leveling everything within a 1,500 foot radius .
The smoke clears up from the explosion to reveal a 33 foot diameter square-shaped crater that's 30 foot deep. Uryū is severely burned from the explosion, the blast generated the force of 123.84 tons of TNT, nearly 7 times the destructive force of the MOAB . Uryū is at the east end of the square crater created by Sprenger while Shikamaru is at the west end of the Sprenger crater. Everything within a 3,000 radius outside and inside the crater is covered in flames .
Uryū is severely burned from the explosion. His white Quincy clothes have been turned into black charcoal rags. Uryū 's glasses are cracked from the explosion and his hair is frizzy as if he was electrocuted. Uryū 's back has severe 3rd degree burns on his body. He lost his left hand in the explosion and is struggling to stand.
Shikamaru is also seriously injured. He has 4 puncture wounds going through the bone his right thigh , 4 holes his left shoulder and 4 small wounds on his back that don't fully penetrate the skin. His ponytail is gone and his hair hangs long over his face. Shikamaru's pants legs are gone with his legs suffering severe 3rd degree burns . His clothes are badly burned as well as his upper body with his Chūnin vest gone but its not as serious as his leg injuries , smoke come out of his wounds .
" Damn it , had not for my Ransōtengai (乱装天傀Heavenly Wild Puppet Suit), i would of been dead. Still i can barely move my body. I got to find a healer fast , while i can move. Trying to fight with only one hand is nearly impossible and i barely have any reishi left " Uryū said to himself as he struggles to move his body from the ruins .

" Go full power or i'll continue to push you to it " Lee said to Ichigo as he then is suddenly interrupted by a sharp sting of pain on his right shoulder.
" Your body can barely handle that much power that your you keep this up, you're going to die from the strain of your own technique " Ichigo said to Lee.
" Thanks for your concern but i can handle myself " Lee replied.
" I don't need my Hollow powers to win this fight, i just have to beat you Kuroi Getsuga " Ichigo shouted as he creates another blast at Lee but Lee dodges the blast with ease.
" Guess you choose to lose this, very well then, time to stop holding back " Lee chanted as he dashes at 60,000ft/sec(40,900 MPH) moving so fast that Ichigo can't even see him .
" Where did he ? " Ichigo asked himself only to be kicked 1,000 feet in the air with chunks of ground being sent flying in the air within a 500 foot radius " Damn it ,he's so fast i didn't know what hit me " Ichigo said to himself as he sees Lee coming at him.
" Hiding your power won't do you any good " Lee said to Ichigo as he then does a powerful punch knocking Ichigo down 900 feet but before Ichigo can fall to the ground Lee appears behind him and kicks him into the air . Lee then dashes past Ichigo 8 times per second for 6 seconds hitting Ichigo with dashing punches
" My body can't withstand this pounding " Ichigo thought to himself as he's hit by another fury of 48 dashing punches in just 6 seconds.
" You're a tough one, try this ! " Lee shouted as he comes at Ichigo with his injured right hand as the muscle tendons rip apart in the arm .
" I can't dodge his punch, i can't even move my body, this is impossible, not even a Shinigami should be able to move this fast " Ichigo said to himself in a frightened panic.
" Hidden Lotus " Lee chanted as he disappears in Ichigo's eyes and moves at 120,000 ft/sec( 81,800 MPH).Lee moves so fast , he is almost invisible to Ichigo's eyes.
" I got to block the attack ! " Ichigo said to himself as he tries to block the attack but it's too late. Lee punches Ichigo right into the abdominal cavity and sends him flying downward causing a 2,500 foot radius explosion leveling everything remaining in it's path.

Omake 31:Quincy Encyclopedia
Ryuken and Isshin are together sitting down talking with each other about their Son's in Ryuken's hospital.
" It looks my son totally kicked ass in this chapter " Isshin said to Ryuken.
" But your son is still nothing compared to my son " Ryuken replied calmly.

" Your son clumsily throws around Reiatsu, my sons Seele Schneider ( German for Soul Cutter ) would steal all that energy and then trick that moron into his Sprenger (German for Explosion ) attack " Ryuken replied.
" Please, i kicked your ass many times before and will do it again " Isshin stated.
" As if, i could kick you ass many times over " Ryuken replied as he draws out his bow.
" Is that a challenge ? " Isshin asked as he pulls out his Zanpakutō.
They both clash attacks which destroys the studio .
