Sakura was at the Hokage's office. She had just explained the situation to the Hokage.

"I see. I'll dispatch the Anbu there immediately." Tsunade said but Sakura protested.

"I'm sorry to say this Tsunade-shishou but please don't." She said. The Hokage was surprised by her apprentice's sudden request.

"What are you trying to say Sakura?" She asked.

"It's just that Naruto has gotten a lot stronger and dispatching the Anbu isn't such a good idea because they might get in his way." She said, she knew what Naruto was capable of. If there was some sort of blast involved there was a chance that the Anbu could get caught. The Hokage thought for a moment.

"Fine, but I'll give them 45 minutes. If they don't return by then, I'll dispatch every shinobi possible to fight against Madara." Sakura nodded at the Hokage's decision.

"There's one more thing I want to ask permission for." Sakura said and Tsunade smiled at her.

"You want to go where they are, don't you? Go ahead, I'll send Katsuyu to the hospital to heal the injured." She said.

"Thank you, Tsunade-shishou." Sakura bowed and left the tent.

Naruto and Sasuke panted as Madara stood before them with just a few scratches.

"Darn it! No matter what we throw at this guy, nothing seems to work." Naruto said, glaring at Madara.

"Listen Naruto, our attacks keep going right through him. But he has a weakness and we have to use that even though there's a slim chance." Sasuke said and that got Madara's attention.

"He figured it out? I'd expect nothing less from a fellow Uchiha." Madara thought.

"After each attack that goes through him, he has to wait 3 seconds before he can use it again. Those 3 seconds are his weakness." Sasuke said and Naruto nodded.

"But 3 seconds is a short amount of time." Naruto said. They'd have to be real quick to make it happen.

"That's right. One of us will have to attack him first and the other has to attack right after making sure Madara doesn't dodge his attack." Sasuke whispered and readied his Chidori.

"Let's go Sasuke! You start off and I'll end this." Naruto yelled.

"Always being the hero huh?" Sasuke muttered and charged straight at Madara. Madara was ready to dodge his attack but Sasuke disappeared right at the end and attacked from above. He smirked when his jutsu went right through Madara.

1 second

Just then Naruto attacked with his Rasengan and Madara easily dodged it.

2 seconds

The first Rasengan was just a decoy. Naruto had another Rasengan ready and attacked from above and just as Madara was about to dodge it he realized he couldn't move. He looked down to see Sasuke holding his legs. It was too late to do anything and….

BLAST!

3 seconds

Naruto helped Sasuke up after Madara was down with a hit of his Rasengan.

"It actually worked! You okay Sasuke? You were pretty close to the blast." Naruto asked and helped Sasuke sit against a tree.

"Yeah I'll be fine. But it's not over yet Naruto. That guy won't be defeated by a Rasengan." Sasuke wiped off some blood from his lips and stood up.

"But Teme, I had no other choice. Rasen-shuriken takes too long. I can't make one in 3 seconds." Naruto whined gesturing with his hands.

"Aa." The two watched Madara slowly emerge from the rubble.

"I have to hand it to you boys. That wasn't half bad. But definitely not good enough. At this rate, destroying the village won't be a problem." Madara stood up and stood in front of them again. Naruto clenched his fist.

"I won't let you go one step towards the village!" Naruto spoke through gritted teeth. He put his arm in front of Sasuke.

"Batter stay back for a while, I haven't mastered this yet." Sasuke saw orange chakra slowly leaking through Naruto's body and decided it would be best to do as he says.

"So it finally comes. Show me the power of the Kuyuubi, Uzumaki Naruto." Madara prepared to use his genjutsu. He knew that if he let Naruto attack he'll be in trouble.

Naruto stood before him with orange chakra flaming all over his body.

"So this was what I sensed earlier." He thought as he watched him from behind.

"So, he's improved I see." Madara thought and Naruto disappeared and was right in front of him, about to attack.

"He's fast but not fast enough." Madara quickly activated his genjutsu. He prepared himself to come face to face with the Kuyuubi inside Naruto. After a few moments he was back in the real world.

"What happened? I trapped you in my genjutsu." Madara was surprised. It was the first time his genjutsu had no effect.

"Your genjutsu won't work on me anymore. I'm different from before." Naruto growled and sent chakra arms to attack Madara. He wasn't able to dodge all of them. The attack sent him crashing against a tree.

"Such power, this chakra is unbelievable. He's actually able to control that?" Madara thought about using his most powerful attack. He didn't want to use it but right now, he had no choice. He got up and disappeared.

"He's getting away!" Naruto yelled. Sasuke got down from the tree.

"He's still around. I'll track his Sharingan with mine." Sasuke activated his Sharingan and spotted Madara.

"He's near the border." He said and Naruto nodded and they both headed off at the direction.

Meanwhile with Sakura

"That chakra, is it Naruto?" She thought and could see a figure coming into view in front of her. It was Yamato. She called out to him and he stopped and looked back.

"Are you going to where Sasuke and Naruto are?" She asked once she caught up to him.

"Yes, it should be close by." He said and they both heard an explosion near the border.

"What was that?" Sakura asked. Yamato was about say he didn't know when they both sensed two strong yet familiar chakras coming towards them. Naruto and Sasuke appeared from the woods and stopped seeing their teammates.

"Na-Naruto?" Sakura spoke as she had never seen him in this form before. She glanced at Sasuke and saw his wounds. Sasuke nodded as a sign that he's fine.

"Where's Madara?" Yamato asked.

"He's at the border. That's where the explosion just came from." Sasuke said.

"We can't waste time. Let's go!" Naruto said and went forward with Yamato following him. Sakura was about to follow them but she was pulled back by Sasuke.

"Sasuke?" She glanced at him. He was holding her arms and slowly let go of her.

"Sakura….I don't want you to come with us." He said. Sakura was surprised. How could he say something like this at such a crucial moment?

"What are you talking about Sasuke? I have to go there." She said and Sasuke pulled her in an embrace.

"It's too dangerous and…..I don't want to risk losing you." He tightened his hold on her.

"And let you guys go and fight that madman alone? You can't say that that Sasuke." She started raising her voice a little.

"Please Sakura….don't. I'm sorry." He kissed her and disappeared. Sakura stood there for a few seconds, thinking about her next move.

"As if I'm going to let you die out on me." She followed after Sasuke and the others towards the border.

Everyone near border stared at the sight in front of them with wide eyes. It was like their past nightmare had returned and this time it was worse. Madara had unleashed a beast with eight tails and was standing on its head. The beast had the power of all the eight tailed beasts. Each tail was different as the beast had one of each beasts' tail.

It had the head of the Ichibi, part of its body had blue flames of the Nibi, shell of the Sanbi, muscles of the Yonbi on its legs, eyes of the Gobi, part of its body was covered with liquid of the Rokubi, armor of the Shichibi and it had the horns of the Hachibi. It was truly a terrifying sight. Anbus tried attacking it but none of their attack had much effect.

Naruto, Yamato and Sasuke reached the border and Naruto was about to attack when Kakashi came from behind and stopped him.

"Don't be reckless Naruto. That creature is unlike anything we've ever faced before. We need a plan." Kakashi panted. He still hadn't fully recovered from his battle with Kabuto.

"Kakashi-senpai, the only way to stop it is to seal it in someone." Yamato said.

"Kakashi-sensei, we need to think of something fast or that thing is going to destroy everyone." Naruto yelled.

"Yamato, we need to retain that beast. Your jutsu is perfect for that but you can't do it alone. Go to the Hokage and tell her to send her best capturing team." Kakashi said. Yamato nodded and headed for the Hokage's office. The beasts' tail collided with a mountain and sent boulders falling bellow. Naruto, Sasuke and Kakashi hid underneath the tree.

"Listen, the only way to defeat Madara and the beast is to seal the beast inside Madara and kill him." Kakashi said and Sasuke and Naruto nodded.

"Just take care of capturing the beast. We'll handle Madara." Naruto said and was about to jump forward only to be pulled back by Sasuke.

"Easy Naruto. But who's going to seal the beast?" Sasuke asked. Kakashi was silent for a moment and then spoke.

"I'll do it." He answered. Sasuke was about to say something but Kakashi shot him look signaling him to stay quiet.

"Alright! I knew we could count on you Kakashi-sensei." Naruto grinned and gave him a thumbs up. Kakashi smiled at him and then got serious again.

"I'll start the preparations. I'll give you a signal when I'm ready. And...thank you for everything guys." Kakashi smiled and looked at his students for a moment then slowly stood up and started walking away. Naruto didn't understand his sudden choice of words but Sasuke did.

"Are you gonna be alright Kakashi-sensei?" Naruto called him from behind and Kakashi just waved his hands as a response.

"Naruto wait until Yamato gets back. We can't fight Madara while the beast is still around." Sasuke explained and Naruto agreed even though he was running out of patience.

"Until he gets back, let's try to help as many people as we can." Naruto and Sasuke set off to help the injured and trapped reach to safety.

Yamato soon came with a group of shinobis. Tenten and Shino were there as well.

"Alright let's do this like we planned." Yamato said and an Anbu used his Water and Earth style jutsu to create the ground beneath the beast into muddy quick sand. The beast lost his balance and Yamato took this chance to use his Wood style jutsu and Tenten brought out some giant chains from her weapon scroll and wrapped it around the beast. Shino and his father released his bugs to attack the beast from inside so they could drain some of its chakra and weaken its state.

Madara watched this with a smirk on his face.

"This is futile." He said and was about to use his jutsu but was punched straight on the face by Naruto. He fell from the top of the beast and landed on the ground where Sasuke and Naruto stood before him.

"You little brats. I'll kill you!" Madara yelled and he became even more frustrated when he saw the beast was unable to move.

"Naruto, they won't be able to hold that thing for long. We need to make this quick. Give me a moment to activate my jutsu." Sasuke said and closed his eyes.

"You got it Teme. Take all the time you need." Naruto moved in to deliver one attack after another to Madara. Madara dodged some and some went through him.

"That's enough out of you Jinchuuriki." Madara used the palm of his hands to attack Naruto and sent him flying against a tree.

Sasuke was ready to use his jutsu. He smirked and opened his eyes.

"Susano"
