'Lightning Style: Wave of inspiration!' Darui, performed the jutsu he taught me against Kisame, hoping it would affect the water-style Akatsuki.
'How predictable…' Kisame went, as his sword, Samehada absorbed the power. But this was only the start. They charged towards each other once more with their enormous swords, rallying the same way that Sasuke and I rallied previously.
'Darui san, if you need any help, I'm right behind you!' I assured him as C's medical ninjutsu was doing quite well to heal my wounds and replenishing my chakra.
Kisame's Samehada then started acting on its own. It went straight for Darui, aiming to bite his midsection, but he dodged, and readied his next jutsu.
'Storm Style: Laser circus!' In an instant, Darui did some handsigns, and a halo of bright energy surrounded his hands, then beams of light came out of the halo. Kisame attempted to dodge, but despite that, almost all of Darui's shots were going to be on target. Kisame appeared to be suffering a little. However, being Kisame, he was still going to be quite difficult to defeat, with an immense amount of Chakra, and the fact that we were surrounded by water.
'Water Clone jutsu' Kisame created four water clones. They surrounded Darui from a distance, and immediately did many handsigns. I figured out what jutsu Kisame was going to use.
'Darui! He's gonna use water Dragon jutsu!' It was quite hard to believe that four water dragon jutsu would simultaneously be performed, but since it was Kisame, I suppose not. Darui attempted to dodge the four dragons and they encircled him, looking to drown him under the aquatic pressure. He succeeded however, with a better version of my lightning style transportation jutsu. Darui, was certainly fighting at his best, and was probably next in line to be Raikage. My wounds were nearly healed, and I started to think 'Maybe he didn't need my help'. How very wrong I was.
Of course, in all the chaos with the water dragons, Kisame and his clones were nowhere to be seen. But, out of one of the dragons was Kisame, unbeknownst to Darui. Kisame came out from a dragon with his Samehada, and attacked from point blank range, only for Darui to impossibly dodge once more. Kisame realised that he needed to do something special to beat Darui.
'Masakhi, I should never have underestimated your power... Allow me to present to you a powerful jutsu which will destroy your friend'.
Kisame, then appeared to join with his Samehada, they were now the same entity.
'Water Style: Great Exploding water colliding wave', Kisame, in his fused form spewed a large amount of water from his mouth, which formed into a giant orb, sucking in Darui, C and myself. At this point, however, I was now ready to fight. Kisame wasted no time in performing his next jutsu.
'Summoning jutsu!' Kisame summoned several sharks. In the water, the three of us were slower and the sharks were quickly chasing after us. I summoned some shadow clones and they used Rasengan to defeat the sharks. The sharks were a distraction however, as Kisame headed straight for C. But, Darui and I were quick enough to intervene. Since we were in a large sphere of water, it would have been dangerous to use lightning style techniques against Kisame, as they would also affect us. In a three against one situation, there was no need to be reckless. Regardless, I didn't have any techniques to stop Kisame, but apparently, Darui did.
'Black lightning: wave of inspiration!' Darui's wave of inspiration was now black, but was different to the original version. I was initially scared that all of us would be electrocuted, but that wasn't the case. Darui's black lightning was passed down to him from the third Raikage. Its techniques had more firepower than ordinary lightning and would only be conducted by water at the user's will. The power was devastating. We were unscathed whilst Kisame was given the shock of a lifetime. He was forced to end his colliding wave jutsu, and all of us were free from this aquatic hell. Despite that, Kisame was not giving up. He summoned two water clones, and was prepared for one last ditch attack. I summoned two clones myself.
'C, now!' Darui yelled, as C was about to use his genjutsu.
'Lightning Style: Flash Pillar!' a huge beam of light was headed towards Kisame, who was unknowingly under the genjutsu, believing that Darui was attacking him.
'Cloud ninja... your lightning jutsu is rather futile. The stronger your jutsu is, the stronger I become!' He appeared to absorb the 'power' with Samehada, but it was too late for him to realise that it was a genjutsu. My Shadow clones and I were ready, with my ultimate jutsu.
'Genjutsu! You insolent...'
'Kisame Hoshigaki, your reign of terror is over. Prepare to die. Darui, C, I advise you to stand back. Rasen Go Hadou!' I threw it the same way I did against Deidara, the circumstances were the same too, as there was a lot of water surrounding Kisame ready to be sucked in by the gravitational pull. As this was a Dark jutsu, he couldn't absorb it without reacting badly to the Dark jutsu, similar to the last time we fought.
The Sphere sucked him in and tortured Kisame. Kisame Hoshigaki... was dead.
The fight ended, and the three of us were okay. And then from a distance, I heard some clapping.
'Give a big round of applause to Kazuya-chan, If he can't do it nobody can! Bakayaro – konoyaro!' The voice was unmistakeable, and the rapping and rhyming, simply terrible – It was Killer Bee!
'I never knew you were so strong!'
'Neither did I, until I got my memory back!' I grinned as I felt good about myself.
'Masakhi, you did awesome. We were glad to have met a fine warrior like yourself', Darui said.
'I think I'll be heading off now. I have my memory back, and my real Destination is the Leaf village.' After that, I said my goodbyes to the village. I was happy to defeat Kisame and kill him. This was a profound contribution to the Shinobi world, and I was happy to have met everyone in my journey so far. Without wasting time, I head for my next destination.
