this is the latest chapter of Naruto: rewind, i got some help from a great writer and they helped me find out some stuff that was wrong with my story and my writing style, so i think i wrote this chapter alot better, but you guys tell me what you think. well thats all for now, i dont own naruto.
"Well, how do you want to do this?" he asked Naruto.
"Well, the way I see it, we can just have a anything goes spar, or we can break it down into separate, genjutsu, ninjutsu, tiajutsu, and fuinjutsu matches. It really doesn't matter to me.
Sarutobi thought about it for a second, "Ok, then this is how we will do it, we will have an all out spar, anything allowed except killing blows." Sarutobi said as he went through a few handsigns, bit his thumb and slammed his hand on the ground, "summoning jutsu!"
in front of him appeared a six foot tall, brown haired ape, he was also wearing gold and black armbands. "So, who is this?" the monkey asked.
"This is a ninja I'm grading the skill of Enma." Sarutobi answered as he threw off his kage robes, revealing a set of tan, and black colored armor, specially made out of metal which made it near weightless, but was as strong as steel.
The monkey now known as Enma nodded, did a few handsigns, "Transform!" he said, and turned into a six foot tall, black adamantine staff with a gold stripe at each end.
Naruto did a hand sign and bluish green seal all over his body glowed for a second, before fading away. "resistance seal release level 50" he thought.
He then sent chakra to a seal on his belt, and a sword appeared on his left side, it was normal katana shape, its handle was black with white silk wrapped around the handle, so just a little of the black underneath showed through. The hand guard was shaped like a dragons maw swallowing the blade, it was blood red, with yellow eyes that seemed to be almost glowing, its teeth were starch white, and looked as sharp as razor blades.
As they both got into there fighting stances the air was thick with tension, as if on an invisible cue, they both shot towards each other seemingly intent on killing each other, Hiruzen tried for a powerful thrust with his staff, but Naruto skillfully deflected the blow, then spun quickly around and tried for a downward slash, which was easily blocked by Sarutobi.
He then sent wind chakra into his blade, and swung it in a sideways slash at Sarutobi's chest, who leaned back to avoiding the blade. They then both jumped back a few feet and Sarutobi looked down and saw a long shallow cut appear on his chest, he looked shocked for a second, but then looked at Naruto's sword and saw a very thin, light blue tint along the edge.
"Gotta say, your pretty quick old man." Naruto said with a smile.
"And I must commend you on your sword skills, at least what iv seen of them." Sarutobi replied nicely, so nicely one would assume he wasn't in a very serious battle.
Naruto the charged again, and tried for a quick slash to the arm, but Sarutobi skillfully dodged it, swinging his staff at Naruto, who dodged to the side. When the staff hit the ground it made a crater a few feet wide. Naruto looked at where the staff had hit, "Geeze, what is he trying to do, kill me?" he thought in mock hurt. He was then forced out of his thoughts as he barely blocked a downward strike from Sarutobi's staff from crushing his head.
The force of the blow made a crater around Naruto's feet, Naruto pushed back hard and force Sarutobi to step back, Naruto the jumped back a few feet and threw his sword up into the ait, then flashed threw handsigns at speeds Sarutobi was having trouble following, after finishing the hand signs, "wind style wind armor!" he said as a very thin coat of wind formed around his body.
Naruto's sword then came back down and he caught it skillfully, then charged towards Sarutobi at a extremely fast speed, with not much effort, do to the fact that the wind armor gave him little to no resistance.
After reaching a surprised Sarutobi, he swung his sword in a downward diagonal slash, which Sarutobi barely blocked. Naruto knew he wouldn't hit Sarutobi with that attack, so he released his sword with one hand, and spun, sending Sarutobi flying away with a backhand to the stomach.
Sarutobi landed on his side, and coughed up a little blood, but got back to his feet. It was then he looked down feeling a liquid on his stomach, and saw he had a few small scratches on it. He realized it must have been the wind armor Naruto was wearing.
He was mildly shocked, but not too much. Deciding Naruto's tiajutsu was definitely up to par, he stabbed Enma into the ground. Naruto seeing what he was doing sheathed his sword with all the skill of a samurai.
Sarutobi then flashed threw a few handsigns, "Fire style great fire dragon!" he said and launched a huge dragon made of fire at Naruto. Naruto thinking fast went through handsigns "water style, great water wall!" and created a water wall that was 30 foot tall, 20 foot wide and 5 foot thick. The dragon crashed into the wall of water, instantly creating an explosion of steam out wards.
Naruto looked carefully around in the steam for the next attack. He wasnt disappointed as he saw a glow in the fog, then a fire ball came towards him, which he barely dodged, singing his cloak. But he didn't have time to worry about that as another ten medium size fireballs came towards him. He managed to dodge most of them, but received minor burns on his arm when a fireball grazed it. But thanks to Kyuubi it was quickly healing.
Naruto having enough of the steam went threw a few handsigns, "Water style water bullet jutsu!" he said, and condensed all the steam into water bullets around six foot in diameter. Then launched them at Sarutobi. Sarutobi deftly dodged most of them, one made contact, and sent him flying into a tree.
Naruto then went through several handsigns, "Ninja art eternal chasm of fears!" he said. Sarutobi was suddenly bound to the tree he had crashed into, and in front of him was his long dead wife, he smiled at seeing her beautiful face again, but then snapped out of it and realized it must be a genjutsu, so he quickly sent a surge of chakra through his chakra network, nothing happened, so he bit his lip, still nothing happened.
So he reach over with his thumb and broke his pinky finger, he grunted in pain, but the genjutsu dispelled, and just in time as he saw Naruto running towards him with a kunai, he ducked under the strike to his face, then thinking quickly grabbed Naruto's arm, twisted it sharply backwards, and threw him into the air.
While Naruto was suspended in the air, he quickly flashed through hand signs and, "Lightning style Kami's rain!" he said and several bolts of light blue lightning shot from the sky and hit Naruto. Who jolted when they hit, then he started to fall to the ground lifelessly.
Sarutobi realized something wasn't right, sure that technique was powerful, but it shouldn't do that much damage to a ninja of Naruto's caliber. He then looked around the battlefield, it looked like it did when they first started, not water soaking the ground, no scorch marks on the surrounding trees, so craters from the various impacts. He realized the only explanation was that he was still in a genjutsu, so he made the 'ram' sign and sent a large burst of chakra through his system.
He then saw his world slowly fade away in a swirl of colors. He then saw the real world, he was leaning against the tree he had been knocked into, and everything looked right. It was then he noticed a quickly approaching Naruto heading his way. He quickly rolled out of the way of a downward strike from Naruto's sword. Which left spider marks where it hit the ground.
Sarutobi knew he needed to get to his staff, but it was at least a hundred feet away, he knew he couldn't beat Naruto in a race there, so he jumped up, and threw a few shuriken at Naruto went threw some handsigns and said, "Shuriken shadow clone jutsu!" and the five shuriken turned into 50. He then took off running as fst as he could towards his staff.
Naruto either dodged or avoided most of the shuriken, but received a few cuts. He then saw where Sarutobi was headed but was to late to intercept him. When Sarutobi reach his staff he picked it up and twirled it expertly around a few times.
The both stood there and looked at each other, the were both breathing hard, although Sarutobi was breathing a little heavier. "I'm impressed Naruto, a double layer genjutsu, Kurenai would be proud." he said, and one could here the satisfaction in his voice that Naruto had become so strong.
"Thanks old man, and you haven't let your skills slip much in your age." Naruto said, glad he could make one of his biggest role models proud of him.
"Well I suppose we should finish this." Sarutobi said as he readied his weapon. Naruto nodded and drew his sword. Naruto then charged forward, Sarutobi raised his staff to block, but to his surprise Naruto just went passed him. After passing Sarutobi, Naruto turned around and did it again. Sarutobi was bewildered at what Naruto was doing.
Naruto the turned and went tin front of him, but had to block a powerful strike from Enma. He then turned and swiftly went behind Sarutobi, and ducked under a swing from Sarutobi.
Naruto then stopped several feet away and made a handsign, Sarutobi wondered what he was doing until he felt the slight chakra surge around him, he looked down and saw what looked like an immobilization seal around him, seeing what Naruto was doing, jumped away as quickly as possible, and just narrowly avoided being trapped there.
He looked at Naruto in shock, he was completely surprised Naruto could draw suck a complex seal with his foot every time he passed by him, especially at such high speeds, and when he was being attacked, but he suspected that the reason he was able to escape was the seals weren't completely in line with other, and therefore took a few seconds to activate. Naruto cursed himself, he thought he had him.
The both stared each other down, the air was thick with tension. Sarutobi looked into Naruto's eyes and saw the eye's of a battle hardened ninja who had seen death and destruction far more then he had experienced during the second or third great shinobi wars, he saw a man who had killed countless people. But he also saw was someone who would do whatever is necessary to protect those he cared about, even if it meant giving up his own life. He saw someone that the will of fire burned brightly in him. And would protect the village no matter what.
Naruto, was not to much worse for the wear, he had a few cuts and bruises, but they were healing thanks to Kyuubi, his clothes were torn in some places, and burnt in a few others. Sarutobi on the other hand looked worse then Naruto, he had a few small cuts, and also a fairly deep gash in his side, he was tired, and had lost about half his chakra. He knew he needed to end this soon, he was about to do a jutsu, until he saw Naruto flash through handsigns, "Firestyle god of fire!" he said as a ring of white flames formed around him.
Sarutobi gasped, this jutsu was one of the prize techniques of the Uchiha clan. But he didn't even have time to wonder how Naruto learned it, as the flames rapidly expanded towards him, he had no where to run to, so he dropped his staff, and huridly went through handsigns. "Ninja art demon gate shield!" he said, and slammed his hands on the ground. Then a gate rose up out of the ground, it was about 50 foot tall and 30 foot wide, the doors were jet black with images of monstrous demons and other atrocious creatures stamped into them. The arch the doors were hung on, was blood red color with streaks of black in it.
The gate raised just in time, as the flames hit it, and created a crushing wind that nearly knocked Sarutobi over. After the attack was over Sarutobi lowered the shield. And looked around at what was left of the training field, there was no grass left on the ground, and where the forest used to be, there was only ashes and the occasional tree burning what was left of it. The ground was covered in scorch marks, and there was no water left on the ground, or in the small pond that used to be there.
