Chapter 4 Time to Bring Out the Blade (I suck at titles)
As Naruto began to come to his senses the first thing he noticed was a white ceiling and the smell of rubber gloves. Naruto groaned as he realized that he was in the hospital. He hated hospitals. They always made him stay longer than he needed to, their food was terrible, and worst of all they didn't serve ramen. To Naruto this was the biggest taboo in the world. To not have the noodley goodness that is ramen, to Naruto was a sin not even the most merciful being could forgive.
As Naruto was pondering what method of escape he should use the door opened and in stepped Orochimaru. Without saying a word he tossed Shin Ryu at Naruto while it was still in its sheathe.
Naruto slowly drew the blade from its sheathe. He gasped at how perfectly balanced it was. He stood up out of the hospital bed and swung it a couple of times and when he accidentally cut through the bed railing, and he was amazed at how he felt almost no resistance.
Orochimaru tossed a bundle of clothes at Naruto as he was only wearing a hospital gown. Then he stood up and walked out so Naruto could get dressed. After a couple minutes he walked back in and said, "You have been cleared to leave, we are going to training ground 44 and you will not leave until you have learned all you can about your new sword.
Naruto nodded in understanding, and he finished putting on his hidden blades and strapped his sword to his back.
20 minutes later in the Forest of Death
Orochimaru led Naruto into the middle of a clearing in the middle of the forest of death. "Naruto," Orochimaru spoke, "In order to fully grasp the abilities of your sword you can't just sit down and meditate. In order to truly unlock a blades true potential these abilities must be discovered in the midst of battle. The Forest of Death is the best place for this as the creatures are always trying to kill you but are not strong enough to do much harm. It is the perfect location for life or death combat training. You shall stay here in the forest of death for one month but if you have not mastered the swords abilities by then, then you will have to stay another two months, then another 4 months, and so on and so forth."
Naruto nodded in understanding and said, "Yes sensei, but how should I get started."
Orochimaru stated, "A good way to start is by channeling your chakra nature through the blade. Remember this blade was created especially for you and will probably enhance some of your abilities. I shall be leaving now. Remember, you are not to leave training ground 44 until you have mastered your blades abilities.
Naruto nodded in understanding and then jumped off into the forest.
2 Weeks Later
Naruto was frustrated. Two weeks and he still hadn't learnt anything about his blade except that he could channel his wind chakra through it, and he could already do that with kunai and other weapons so he felt like that didn't really count as an awesome special ability like his sensei said it would have.
Naruto was angrily running through trees, he was so angry that he almost didn't sense the four chakra signatures that were nearby. He guessed that the couldn't be more than 50 meters away. Naruto decided to go investigate hoping it might help him learn more about about his blade.
As he got to the clearing he saw what appeared to be genin team and their sensei, but the other thing he noticed was that they weren't from Konoha. On their foreheads was not a leaf insignia but of of the hidden village of the Rock. He quietly crouched on a branch overhead of them and listened in on their conversation.
One of the what appeared to be genin spoke. "Ugh I can't believe we got such a lame mission. I mean what kind of mission is hunting down a bunch of wet behind the ears genin, for a team of chunin.
The jonin spoke up, "Listen you young fool this is a mission of great importance that you should feel honored to have been chosen for. Your job is to first booby trap this forest so that it looks like Konoha is trying to gain an advantage over the other villages, and second is you three are to go and kill as many Konoha genin as possible so to cripple their future forces as there are a lot of Konoha teams participating.
The genin just sighed stating, "I know, I know its just killing a bunch of genin sounds rather underhanded, I mean I always thought our village was above such tactics and that it was Konoha that did these things.
The jonin just shook his head, "Listen in the ninja world there is no honor, you are expected to do anything in your power to complete a mission even if it means killing an innocent person. That is our duty as ninja there is no sugar coating it as to survive you must be willing to do the most deplorable acts imaginable. Do you understand?
The genin just turned his head while looking disinterested like he had heard that same story before.
Right then they heard a snap. Up in the trees Naruto cursed as being so careless as to let himself be heard. Without given much time he found himself using his sword to block a kunai swipe from the jonin. Naruto immediately jumped back away only to duck due to a kunai thrown by one of the genin. Channeling wind chakra into his sword he cut through a tanto used by one of the Iwa genin and straight through his neck.
Seeing their teammate go down they decided to try and double team him. As they got nearer they noticed that Naruto had begun doing seals they were only about two feet away from him when he thrust his hands out shouting, "Futon: Daitoppa!" The two genin got shot away and were knocked unconscious when they crashed into a tree. Naruto was looking around for the jonin as he had disappeared. Naruto knew the man hadn't ran away, Iwa jonin were two prideful to be beaten by a Konoha civilian (Since he technically isn't a ninja yet as he hasn't graduated from the academy).
As he expected the jonin appeared out of the ground and slammed his hands into the ground while shouting, "Doton: Burakkumaunten no noroi! (Curse of the black mountain) As he called out the name of the jutsu, massive spikes made from black earth rose from the ground to impale Naruto.
Naruto knew he couldn't avoid it as it was to fast so he poured as much chakra as he could into his attack and called out, Shinra Tensei! (Almighty Push) As he said it a massive surge of gravity occurred as the entire forest around him for about a half mile was completely leveled.(Think of what Pein did to Konoha just not as large of a scale) In the middle of it stood Naruto panting slightly. Grinning to himself he looked around to try and find the remains of the Iwa jonin; it would hopefully be his corpse.
His hope was in vane as a spike of earth erupted from the ground and nearly pierced his chest. He managed to pull a substitution but still got a shallow wound on his left side.
The rock jonin appeared from out of the ground and saw that his earth spear had impaled a log. He looked around and thought, "Holy shit if that attack had his me I would have died. Who is this kid? He looked around and was happy that he had hidden in the ground. He spun around just in time to block the kids sword with a kunai but had to jump back when he realized it was coated in wind chakra.
Naruto was tired and slightly low on chakra from his last attack. He hoped that he could surprise the jonin like he did the genin/chunin. But no such luck as he man jumped backwards. Though Naruto was surprised when a blade of wind chakra shot out of the blade, much to the surprise of Naruto and the jonin. Naruto smiled as he saw it cut into the jonin but became disappointed as a puff of smoke revealed a log in his place. Naruto looked around to try and find the jonin.
As he was looking around he detected a signature underneath him and jumped into the air narrowly avoiding an uppercut from the jonin.
Channeling wind chakra into his blade again he swung it attempting to do the same thing he had done earlier in his battle. But instead at the last minute he felt the chakra shift from wind to something else, as a massive wave of fire erupted from the tip of his blade.
The eyes of the jonin widened in shock at seeing the massive fire storm. Naruto smiled as when it cleared he saw a clump of black remains. But before he could celebrate his victory he saw the body crumble signaling that it was a rock clone and as he turned around he saw a massive boulder the size of of an average sized building coming straight at him.
At that second he felt his Shinra Tensei return, and he thrust out his sword channeled his chakra through his sword and shouted Shinra Tensei! As he released his jutsu instead of a wide ranged attack like it usually was, it was narrow and focused and when it made contact with the boulder it plowed right through it shattering it into many pieces.
The jonin's eyes widened at the incoming attack. As it was the reason that he became jonin as his other skills were only about high jonin, but that jutsu had never failed to defeat his opponents in the past. The attack coming to fast for him to avoid and he had been so confident in his last attack he hadn't bothered to prepare a substitution in case. The attack hit him and went straight through his stomach, and he collapsed to the ground in a pool of blood.
Naruto was still standing there looking at his sword in awe. When his sensei had said it would be made specifically for him and him only, he didn't think it would be so custom made for him that it would amplify his existing abilities to such a degree. But the only thing he didn't understand is where the fire came from. He had a wind affinity, sure he would eventually be able to control them all, but due to fire being strong against wind Orochimaru had guessed that would be the last one he would get.
Naruto decided he should go refine the abilities he had discovered so far so he could do it on demand, instead of on accident. So he was about to go and continue his training session but he suddenly collapsed in exhaustion. As he was laying there he both hoped and didn't hope his sword had to much more to unlock or at the rate he was going he would be stuck here for a year, and he was really starting to miss ramen as his supply had ran out a couple days ago.
2½ Months Later
Naruto ended up having to stay a total of three months to finish mastering his blade. He had discovered that not just Shinra Tensei but all his Rinnegan abilities were enhanced by it. By putting it near or clashing blades with someone he could drain their chakra. By swiping it through jutsu he could take the chakra out of the ability, by focusing Shinra Tensei and Bansho Tenin (Universal Pull), the powers would be magnified and focused.
He had learned how to summon the fire at will, and the part he thought was the coolest was that he didn't need hand signs to do it. He perfected his wind slash which he named, "Fujin no Ha" (Blade of the wind god).
He also learned that if he ever lost it, he could summon it back to his sheathe at will, using Bansho Tenin could bring it back to his hand, and using the minor snake contract (where he can't summon big snakes just smaller ones like the ones used in shadow snake hands) he can have his snakes poison the blade making a scratch into a fatal wound.
But what Naruto was still curious about was where the fire was coming from. He learned he could make the fire much bigger by sending his wind chakra into it, but if used without the wind it required no chakra. This fact still puzzled Naruto.
He stopped his thoughts as he neared the North most gate of the Forest of Death. He saw a snake curled up by the entrance. Seeing it he knew his sensei summoned it to watch the gate while he did other important things.
He probably went out drinking with Jiraiya again. Maybe Jiraiya would give him some more scrolls on sealing as he had just finished the last ones before he went into this Kami forsaken forest.
Rattling the gate a little bit to get the snakes attention, the snake looked up then slithered over and through the chain link fence and opened his mouth impossibly wide, and Naruto climbed in. (Think Jiraiya and the toads he climbed in and out of when he infiltrated Amegakure)
After sitting inside the snake for about 15 minutes he saw the snake open his mouth and he climbed out.
Naruto looked around to take in his surroundings and saw that he was, as predicted he found himself in the shinobi bar the The Dull Kunai. In front of him he saw Orochimaru and Jiraiya talking while drinking a particularly strong brand of sake. Naruto cleared his throat to get their attention. The two turned around in their bar stools to look at him.
Orochimaru looked at him and noticed that Naruto's clothes were torn a little bit. "Naruto do I have to up your training if the forest creatures were enough to injure you.
Naruto looked at Orochimaru and shook his head vigorously and responded, "No sensei, I fought an Iwa jonin and three chunin in the forest who were there to try and sabotage the second round of the chunin exams.
Orochimaru and Jiraiya looked at the kid and their eyes widened in shock. Jiraiya knew that since the war Iwa was forced to promote some people to jonin that weren't strong enough to be, just to keep up their appearance of strength, but still.
Orochimaru looked and Naruto and asked, "What happened to the Iwa nins?
Naruto looked at his sensei and responded, "I decapitated one of the chunin, the other two I knocked out but later died due to an empowered Shinra Tensei."
Orochimaru nodded his head knowing how deadly that technique was, and signaled for him to continue.
Naruto continued, "and when I was fighting the jonin I unlocked three of my swords abilities. First I discovered was that it is capable of releasing a large blade of wind that can cut through most objects, second it is capable of releasing a large amount of fire without requiring chakra and only gets bigger when a channel my wind chakra into the attack, and I killed him with the third ability is I can focus my Shinra Tensei through it to focus it and cause more damage. Using the third ability I launched it to stop his final attack but after it shattered his attack it kept going and blasted a massive hole through his stomach. I only won through luck, If he had avoided my last attack I would probably be dead right now."
Orochimaru and Jiraiya were stunned at what this sword could do. Though both were wondering how the sword could produce fire without the application of chakra. Voicing their curiosity Orochimaru spoke, "Naruto do you know how the sword creates this fire?"
Naruto shook his head, "No, but I do have a theory; when I use the fire the dragons on the side of the blade turn red, and when the fire comes out it looks almost as if the fire is coming from their mouths. I'm not sure if that helps any but its all that I've come up with."
Orochimaru nodded, he would have to talk with the snakes about it, but that would have to wait as of right now he needed to train Naruto to properly use his sword in opposed to using revised kunai styles. "Naruto its time for you to learn how to properly use your sword meet me at training ground 18 tomorrow at 0600 hours(6:00).
Naruto nodded in understanding, he decided he'd go to Ichiraku and get some ramen then head home to sleep in his own bed again.
