Neji Hyuuga Vs Kotobuki

After encasing Kabuto and himself within the barrier, Naruto unsheathed his swords from their scabbards resting on his back. Holding them in his hands he took his battle stance. Kabuto looked surprised when he saw the weapon in Naruto's hand because what he held in his hand was not a typical sword but it was a Bisento, It had a thick curved blade mounted atop a long metal pole with a ring at the base, and had the kanji for sage and fox written on them,

"My, what an interesting blade you have there Uzumaki. But the question is can you actually use it?" "Truly I'm sure you are strong but are you strong enough to defeat me?" The Snake man asked, "Well we won't find that out by sitting on our asses here will we, you Traitor?"

"Now enough Chit chat come here so I can kill you once and for all, and with unbelievable speed he jumped off Gamabunta head, he made a familiar sign and said "Kage Bunshin No Jutsu" ("Shadow Clone Jutsu") creating an army of clones they all attacked Kabuto together with various jutsu or weapons, however Kabuto defeated them all by either using his chakra scalpel or by using the shadow snakes Jutsu.

After all the clones had been defeated Kabuto called out to Naruto and said "If you're done checking me out how about we start the main Event." Naruto suddenly popped out of the ground from behind of Kabuto and threw a Sage Rasen shuriken at Kabuto, which Kabuto easily dodged. "Come now Naruto you seriously didn't expect me to be hit by that jutsu of yours did you" said Kabuto Mockingly facing Naruto." Nope I fully expected you to dodge but the main thing is I wasn't aiming for you THAT TIME!"

Before Kabuto could ask what Naruto meant out of the corner of his eye he saw a shadow clone pop out of the ground, enter beast mode and with his chakra arms not only did he catch the Rasen Shuriken in his hand but threw it back at Kabuto and before Kabuto could even dodge The clone simultaneously while cloaked in Kyuubi Chakra made the hand signs for the Horse → Tiger[2] or Snake → Ram → Monkey → Boar → Horse → Tiger and said "Katon: Gokakyu no Jutsu ("Fire style: Great Fireball Technique") aimed it at the flying Rasen shrunken, because the Rasen shuriken was made of the wind element upon coming in contact with the fire it became a flaming Fūton Rasen Shuriken. This slammed into Kabuto Yakushi causing the area to become a flaming wind storm burning and disintegrating everything in a 50 Mile radius.

Back In Konoha

Neji was still busy fighting his opponent from the Grass Village. With a trident in his hand and a crazy smile on His face Neji said, "Since we're in round two how about we skip the foreplay and get right on the main event I showed you mines; now you show me yours." He told the grass Ninja, pointing towards the mark at the back of his neck." Oh so you saw that did you?" Asked Kotobuki,

"Alright fine then let's play for keeps." With a single hand sign Kotobuki released his curse mark, which caused his had to grow some small horns and which caused his skin be covered in a rip-like pattern.

Neji seemed mildly shocked as his opponent activated his curse mark, but he was happy because no he would be able to really test his strength. With his trident in hand Neji rushed towards his opponent, he channeled his chakra through his trident causing it crackle with electricity, and although it was quite a large trident it seemed Neji was able to wield it with no difficulties and true to his Anbu Training.

Neji with a single hand sign sent a burst a of electricity towards the Grass ninja, which hit the Ninja in the chest sending his enemy stumbling back a couple of steps, which was enough for Neji to launch a series of counter attacks against Kotobuki and with a series of kicks launched him in the air, using his superb speed and reflexes Neji quickly appeared behind Kotobuki with his trident emitting electrical waves surrounded Kotobuki s body and his.

Neji whispered in his opponents ear saying " I'd like to introduce you to a remix version of one of my friend's favourite moves I call it the "Setsuden Kage Buyō!" ("Electrifying Leaf Shadow Dance!") Wrapping his opponents body in electricity he started a pile drive towards the ground With Kotobuki's head pointing down and with the electricity binding him Kotobuki was unable to move And he hit the ground at a surprising speed with his head cracking and spiting into a million Pieces,

Neji stood a distance away panting hard and watched with disbelief at the scene before his eyes he wasn't horrified at the bloody mess that had been created because of a smashed head. No, he was used to that, but what seemed to shock him was that the split pieces were coming together and once again forming a head on Kotobuki's shoulders. After a few seconds, the head was completely rebuilt and intact and the seemingly dead ninja rose again and started laughing evilly.

"Hahahahaha good move Hyuuga–san I must say, In fact I guess I must compliment you on that move, had it not been for my curse mark I would surely have been dead but you see again thanks to this curse mark I am able to regenerate and rejoin any parts of body within a few moments. Although I must say that you are able to inflict this kind of damage at me at all means you are quite a powerful and gifted shinobi."

Neji nodded his head and said "thank you for the compliment but now if your finished talking lets fight and with a flash he made a few hand signs and said "Suiton: Suiryūdan no Jutsu" ("Water Style: Water Dragon Jutsu.") As the water jutsu appeared towards him Kotobuki made a few hand signs himself and said "Doton: Toride Kakuheki ("Earth Fortress Wall,") and around him a great big wall appeared seemingly blocking the gushing stream of water.

Thus the shinobi continued their battle against each other, using weapons, Ninjutsu, Taijutsu and the occasional Genjutsu, Not a word was heard between the two warriors except for the names of their Jutsu and techniques each neutralizing the other's attacks, exhaustion and pain could be seen on both shinobi faces, Eventually Neji who had his Byakugan active throughout the battle started to notice a pattern to his opponents attacks, so deciding to act on his suspicion, readied his attack, opening his second chakra gate; Neji prepared his final attack, having opened his first chakra gate to perform the Setsuden Kage Buyō (Electrifying Leaf Shadow Dance.)

He called out to his opponent and said" This battle has gone on long enough we both are at our limit you and I both know that we only have one more attack left in us, so let's make it count shall we?"

Kotobuki nodded and said "very well this last attack shall decide our fates let us go," saying this they both charged up for their final attack. Kotobuki made a series of hand signs and said "Suiton: Haran Banshō!" ("Water Style: Storm Upheaval!") all of a sudden beneath him a massive amount of water erupt from the ground and envelop him covering his body in a fortress of water and with his remaining chakra he directed a great surge of water towards Neji.

Seeing the charging water come towards him made a single hand sign and quickly summoned his fallen trident to his side by an electric burst, finally with trident in hand Neji made a couple of hand signs and suddenly his trident started emitting electricity and not only that the electricity seemingly jumped of his trident and fell onto the fallen Kunai, shuriken and other steel weapons around the field creating a circuit of kinds around the battle field, then with the last of his strength and using his Byakugan to measure the distance he threw his trident with all his might straight towards his enemy.

The Trident glowing white and crackling with electricity cut through the surging waves of water, Kotobuki was awestruck at what he saw, His own jutsu was being used against him because of the surging waves destroying and picking up all the boulders and trees in its path had become negatively charged due to Neji's trident. Passing through, the surging water automatically became attracted to the positively charged Steel weapons lying around the battle field.

Now Kotobuki was no longer in control of the surging waves instead due to being electrically charged the raging waves were now under the sole command of Neji's Trident, and so summoning the last of his strength Neji changed the direction of the killer waves and sent it straight towards his opponent completing the Jutsu He finally called out its name: "Kami No Keibatsu: Yofun Raiu!" ("Kami's Judgement: Raging Thunderstorm!").

With Kotobuki encasing himself in a Water Fortress He wasn't able to move quickly enough to avoid Neji's deadly attack; the electrically charged water was able to break through his water fortress and pierced his only weak spot: his navel, leaving Kotobuki had been fatally injured.

Neji limped towards his opponent who had now fallen to his knees and was drawing his final breaths, "H-h-how did you figure out *cough*, *cough*?" Neji looked at Kotobuki and said "after you told me that every part of you is able to regenerate and grow back after being attacked I simply attacked you in a more systematic way."

"You were almost correct; except for the fact that when I attacked your waist before the attack could reach you would always dodge or block so after that I noticed that this was your only weak spot." "So I concentrated all my energy on that section knowing you would waste all your energy on that and you did and because of that you didn't notice me throwing my kunai and shuriken in such a way that they would be spread around in a circular motion, and now before I kill you any last words?"

"Cough, Cough, yes, I want to thank you for battling me for the sake of my honour and I must say that I enjoyed fighting you are indeed a skilled opponent I have but only one request if you will grant it?" Kotobuki said with utmost humility. Neji looked at him and said "ask and it shall be granted."

"I wish for you to deliver the finishing blow by piercing my heart so that I may die with my pride and a smile on my lips, and when you raise toast to your fallen comrades also raise a toast to your fallen enemies and wish for their peace in Kami's Realm, will you grant me my last wish Hyuuga?" Looking at his opponent and then bowing to him in respect Neji readied his stance and said "so is it," and with a quick jab struck his enemy's heart thus killing him. With his enemy dead Neji removed His trident from the dead man's body and washed the blood away in a nearby stream and sealed it back within his scroll and in true Anbu fashion started on destroying his enemy's body.
