Kirito and the others looked at the screen and saw that the final battle between Death Gun and Naruto had started. They saw Naruto used battoujutsu to slash at Death Gun, but Death Gun seems to know that will happen and managed to dodge. Then he strikes at Naruto's shoulder, though Naruto managed to deflect that. They listened to the conversation of Naruto and Death Gun.
"It's as I deduced Death Gun has studied about Hiten Mitsurugi Ryuu in order to defeat Naruto. But Naruto still has a trump card" said Kirito still looking at the screen intently.
"And what's that trump card, Kirito-kun?" asked Asuna curiously and everybody there also turned their attention to Kirito.
"The move that strike down the Demon General Sakaki Kojiro. Ultimate technique of Hiten Mitsurugi Ryuu. Amakakeru Ryuu no Hirameki. One hit kill move, which risk your own life in order to execute that" answered Kirito looking at the kneeling figure of Naruto at the screen.
Then they heard Naruto called out Death Gun's past name in SAO. Kirito, Asuna, and Klein's eyes widen at that. "So, his past indentity is the second-in-command of LC. The right hand of PoH. Akame no XaXa..." muttered Kirito

Shin glared at Death Gun and slowly stood up. Then he charged forward and began to strike at Death Gun. Death Gun used his estoc and deflects the strikes easily. Shin jumped passed Death Gub and began to spin to perform Ryuukansen. Death Gun put his esctoc behind his back to deflect the strike. Shin saw his attack failed and gritted his teeth in frustration. Then he shoved the Murasame to the ground to perform Doryuusen.
The earthen debris caused by Doryuusen began to fly at Death Gun with inpressive speed, but Death Gun began to change his stance. With the left hand hold at the back of the handle of the estoc and the right hand raised forward with open palm.(Saito Hajime Gatotsu stance from Rurouni Kenshin). And with that he charge forward like a bullet at the Doryuusen and shoved his sword forward with such speed and power that it nullified the Doryuusen in instant.
Shin watched in shock at what happened. Never in his like had he seen any one nullified Doryuusen. All the former enemies tried to avoid it, but not to nullify it.
Death Gun stood in normal stance and turned to Shin slowly with his glowing red eyes.
"You don't even have a slight chance at winning this battle, Hitokiri Battousai. Your chance of winning this battle is zero. Just hold to your pathetic life and tried to survive every second. But you will die here. Nobody will be able to help you. Then you will watch from hell as I finished off those other two"
"I won't let that happen! You already kill four innocent people with your dirty trick. I won't lose to someone like you!" shouted Shin and glared at Death Gun.
Death Gun tilted his head aside and asked
"Ho? And how are you gonna defeat me when I know all your moves? You are just bluffing. You had breath too many rotten air of reality, your sword no longer as sharp and deadly as before. You won't even worthy the title of Hitokiri Battousai anymore. The past you will be very disappointed watching you become so weak as you are now"
Shin continued to glare at Death Gun, but noticed he was right.
'He is right. How the heck am I supposed to win against him? He knows all of my moves... Wait, I still have that technique... Yeah, there is no way Death Gun can counter this technique. Even if he managed to dodge the first strike the second will come even with more force and finished him' thought Shin and the fire of determination burned once again in his eyes.
Shin began to sheathe his Murasame back and stood back to battoujutsu stance. Death Gun saw Shin changed his stance and narrowed his eyes. Then Shin disappeared and reappeared in front of Death Gun. Death Gun stumbled a little in surprise. Then Shin unsheathed his sword and a twinkle star come out when unsheathe. Shin focused all his strength in the battoujutsu strike and slashed at Death Gun aiming for his hip. Death Gun managed to deflect the strike. But suddenly, the space was distort and create the air vacuum pulling Death Gun in. At the same,Shin turned around ,after failed to deliver the first strike, he prepared the second strike. Death Gun saw he was being continued to pull in the vacuum. And decided to use the Gatotsu with all his might and shoved forward with all the speed and power he can use. The result was the shocking wave of Death Gun's Gatotsu and the vacuum of Amakakeru Ryuu no Hirameki created the shock wave that blew them away from each other. Shin was blasted back and lied in I'd back with a complete shock face. He couldn't beloved that the ultimate move of Hiten Mitsurugi was counter like this. Death Gun stood up shakingly after the blast and slowly began to approach the shocked Shin, which lied motionlessly on the ground.
Death Gun stood above Shin with his glowing eyes and said.
"You really think that I don't know about that move? It's true I didn't expect the vacuum to be create and for you to execute the second strike, but I knew that your trump card is this move. You asked why? Because, we started to spying you from the distance the day you wipe Titan Hands. Of course, during the time you defeat the Demon General, our spy was there as well, and delivered the information to me. You've lost,Battousai. Now it's time to die"
With that Death Gun began to raise his estoc high in the air.
With Sinon and Mana
Sinon and Mana watches the harsh battle that is currently happen in the middle of desert. They saw how all of Shin's strike was countered by Death Gun.
"Naruto..." muttered Sinon with worried look.
Mana just watched the battle silently, she was really drawn to this battle. All those sword techniques that both are using fascinate her very much. They watched as suddenly Shin disappeared and reappeared in front of Death Gun and performed a slash with such force that the sand behind his feet flew up. But Death Gun still somehow managed to deflect it. Then something unexpected happened, the moment Death Gun deflect the strike the vacuum air space was created between them. And they saw Shin began to turn to deliver the second strike. Then they saw that Death Gun was being slowly pulled in the vacuum space. They thought that there is no way that Death Gun could deflect this strike. But they were wrong, Death Gun shoved his esctoc forward with such speed and power to create the shock wave to collide with the vaccum space. The result was the blast between the two swordsman and they flew back at a certain distance. Then they saw that Shin was lying on his back and didn't seem to stand back up. Death Gun began to approach him then said something to him and raised his estoc up.
Sinon saw that and screamed desperately
"No! Naruto stand up! Stand up, please!"

Kirito saw Naruto performed Amakakeru Ryuu no Hirameki and was confident that the battle will be over now. What happened next caused him to widen his eyes in horror and in disbelief.
"W-what? The ultimate technique of Hiten Mitsurugi Ryuu was defeated? It's just impossible!" muttered Kirito with wide eyes and stood up.
Then they noticed that after the blast has happened Naruto didn't seem to stood up. They saw how Death Gun slowly approached Naruto and said something to him. What happened next caused all their heart to stop.
"Naruto!" shouted Kirito, Asuna and Klein
"Naruto-kun!" shouted Lisbeth and Leafa with teary eyes.
"Naruto-san!" shouted Silica.
"Tou-chan!" shouted Wendy and run to the screen to touch it.
"Uncle!" shouted Yui horrified.

All the players saw the battle and were impressed at the level of it. They all watching intently and all hoped Shin to win. When they saw Death Gun approached the motionless Shin. They all thought that it is over now.
"It's over. I don't want to admit it but that Death Gun bastard is the winner of this battle" said one player clutching his knuckle.
"Yeah, Death Gun is not better in terms of skill, but he somehow knew every move that Shin-san will make. He didn't have any chance to win. I guess this is really over" said the other player. Then they all stay silent and just continued to watch the end of the battle.

Death Gun slowly raised his estoc and prepared to slash Shin in half. At the distance Sinon screamed out with tears run down her eyes. Time seems to slowed down each second as the estoc slowly descent to Shin's body. Suddenly, the huge amount of killing intent comes out from Shin's body. It was so much that the wind created a cyclon around his body. The feeling of death envelope Shin's body and he slowly stood up. Though the hair covered his eyes, so nobody could see his expression.
Death Gun looked back at Shin and felt that his body is shaking automatically. He looked at Shin's face and tried to read the emotion through his face, but the hair is covering his eyes.
'What the heck happened? Just a minute ago, he lied motionlessly. Now, the killing intent of this mass is emanating from him. Is it the true strength of Hitokiri Battousai, which he has hid long ago?' Death Gun thought and looked back down and his hands they still didn't stop shaking.
With Sinon and Mana
They watched from the distance as Death Gun was about to finish off Shin. Mana was about to charge in to interfere, as the situation was too dangerous for her to stand aside. Suddenly, she and Sinon felt a huge amount of killing intent from the direction of the battlefield. Mana looked at Sinon and saw her breathing very heavy. She just barely is holding herself to stop shaking from fear.
"What the heck is going on there? Is this killing intent all Shin-san'd doing?" asked Mana tried to hold herself together. Sinon though did not fare so well as Mana. She barely holds on to not throw out at the moment.
"W-what is this killing intent? I-it's so much and dense that chocked the air out of my lungs. Is it really Naruto?" wondered Sinon panting heavy looking to the direction of battlefield.

Kirito and the others saw how Death Gun was about to finish Naruto off. Suddenly, a huge amount of killing intent emanating from Naruto's lying body. Even through the screen they still could feel it, the feeling of death coming out from Naruto's body. It's as if he become the Shinigami himself.
"So, the worst has happened. Now, he will destroy anyone in front of him to satisfy his bloodlust. He is no longer Naruto, but the harbinger of destruction. He won't stop until everything will be destroyed" said Kirito looking at the screen with dread. Lisbeth and Leafa hearing that turned to the screen and screamed.
"No, Naruto-kun, snapped out of it. That's not you at all"
Asuna looking at silent standing figure of Naruto and felt a shiver down her spine.
"Why did it turn out like this?" said Asuna.

Death Gun looked at the standing figure of Shin for a while, the he decided to charge in. What happened next shocked him. The moment he charged in, Shin disappeared from his position and reappeared behind him and slashed down with so much force that makes him to hold the estoc with two hands to deflect the attack.
"W-what? He slashed down only with one hand and forced me to use two hands to block his attack. His physical strength also increases drastically. But what happened back there? I still couldn't understand anything" wondered Death Gun holding his estoc with two hands.
Shin slowly raised his head to reveal his malicious golden eyes. Just a look and you could feel that all you body parts seems to be frozen. Those eyes are not even feeling human, eyes like that of a demon. "Didn't you say that you will be the one to kill me? Come on, show me all what you got! But know this, the way I used Hiten Mitsurugi Ryuu before is not even half power of the style. The true Hiten Mitsurugi Ryuu user moves so that his opponent couldn't even see anything until the strike was delivered. That is the true Hiten Mitsurugi Ryuu. I am tired of this game already. So I will kill you right here, right now" said Shin with a voice so cold that could even froze the flame.
Death Gun changes to his Gatotsu stance and charge forward once again with a burst of speed. Shin disappeared from his place once more to reappear above Death Gun and used Ryuutsuisen: Zan to strike at the forehead of Death Gun. Death Gun barely, but managed to deflect the strike somehow. Shin disappeared in mid air and reappeared at the back of Death Gun and performed Hiten Mugen Zan to cause Death Gun to propel forward like a bullet to the ground. Shin began to slowly approached Death Gun like a predator. Death Gun have just managed to recover and slowly looked behind him to see Shin is walking slowly to him. He felt so scared right now, like the first time that he encounter Hitokiri Battousai, no this time is worse.
"What's wrong? Didn't you say I have zero chance to win this battle? Stand up and fight! Show the best that you can do. Only then you are worth to kill" said Shin with malicious glowing golden eyes
With Sinon and Mana
They witness Shin's new power and felt terrified. Never in their life has they felt such a dread and horrifying feeling. Even when she killed that man, Sinon never felt so terrified. Just closing her eyes now, she could imagine her death hundreds of way.
"W-why did things turned out like this? Is this Naruto's price for the strength he possesses? He said that his strength is a curse, I think this is exactly what he means" muttered Sinon embracing herself to felt a little secure.

They watched as Naruto with his new power fought Death Gun with such ease. Wendy is hugging Lisbeth tightly with her eyes closed, the same with Yui, Asuna is holding her tried to comfort her.
"His speed, strength and instincts have increased so much. Even if I were there I won't be able to stop him with force. Kuso, at this rate Naruto will be completely consumed by the bloodlust and maybe won't even return to normal. What the heck can we do in a situation like this?" said Kirito with gritted teeth and punched down the table.
"I didn't know that Naruto has this side. Never even a worst nightmare, I couldn't imagine Naruto become like this" said Klein looked down to the ground.

Shin stood before Death Gun calmly with his eyes still glowing golden. He looked at the Death Gun like he was an ant under the the elephant's feet. Death Gun looked at Shin and took out his handgun and began to shoot at Shin. Shin smirked coldly then closed his eyes and turned his head aside to avoid the bullet. Then he reopened his eyes and turned to Death Gun with a bored look.
"Is that all? You have disappointed me greatly, I thought that as the second commander of the red guild, you skills must be more than that. Guess, LC was nothing but a guild that could only threaten the weak. Even your leader is a mere bully, against someone like me you are all nothing" mocked Shin with a wide smirk on his face.
Death Gun couldn't take anymore insults and roared that charged forward in Gatotsu stance at Shin. He charged at the max speed the he could manage.
"Foolish" muttered Shin and stood in battoujutsu stance. Then he tapped his foot to prepare unleash Shukuchi.
"You are not worth for me to use the true Amakakeru Ryuu no Hirameki, but I will show you something that I have just thought off" said Shin with a smirked then used Shukuchi to disappear.
Death Gun looked around and saw multi trace of ground crush around him, as the result of using Shukuchi. Suddenly Shin appeared before him with a smirk on his face and unsheathes his sword so fast that Death Gun couldn't even see the blade. Then he slashed from the hip to the shoulder bisecting Death Gun on half. Death Gun's eyes glowed red a little then his upper body fell to the ground.
"I called this move Shuntensatsu. The combination of Battoujutsu and Shukuchi. And you are the first one that have taste this technique. You should feel honored" said Shin looked down at the upper body of Death Gun.
"N-nothing...is...over. Black... will...-" said Death Gun before he died. But he couldn't finish the sentence as Shin slash down to take his head away.
"You voice is annoying. Just die already" said Shin annoyed. After the sign of 'dead' appeared over Death Gun's head. He turned to the direction where Mana and Sinon located and said
"Let's see. Who is next?"His eyes glowing golden and the aura is still the same, the aura of death.
