Dante and Satoshi were hot on Yamamoto trail, Satoshi was in front and Dante was right behind him. Dante was nervous, he didn't know if he was ready to fight such a high ranking ninja, even if he was with his sensei, who is one of the best Jonin in the Mist Village. Satoshi and Dante finally make it to Yamamoto location and see a man behind Yamamoto, Satoshi raised a eyebrow as the man was also wearing a Mist Anbu uniform, Dante heart was beating rapidly as he knew this would be his first real battle to the death. Yamamoto looked at Dante and Satoshi and grinned.
" You made it here quickly, I see your down two. Are you sure it's safe to fight me with just one Genin Satoshi?" Yamamoto said with a evil chuckle as he glared at Dante.
Dante hands shake as he made a fist, he then looked at Satoshi for guidance.
" Dante is more then enough to beat you with me at his side." Satoshi said as he growled at Yamamoto.
Yamamoto sighed and chuckled again. A Yamamoto rock clone came up behind Satoshi and did hand seals.
" Water Style: Water Prison Jutsu."
Satoshi was now in a water prison, Satoshi knocked on the prison so that Dante can get him out of it. Dante eyes widened and he charged at the clone, Yamamoto then kicked Dante in the face. Dante fell to the floor and grabbed his chin, he then springs back up and charged at the original Yamamoto after he threw kunai's at the clone, the clone dodged the kunai easily and grinned. Dante cursed as it missed and he then threw a barrage of punches and kicks to Yamamoto face and stomach, Yamamoto grinned as he dodged all of the attacks and punched him in the stomach, he then used both of his forearms to hit Dante back. Dante fell to the ground and slowly got up, Yamamoto grabbed Dante by his neck and punched him again in the stomach, he then threw him to a tree like he was a child toy. Dante back hit the tree and he groaned in pain, he then slowly got up and held his stomach.
Yamamoto let out a evil laughter he then looked at Satoshi. " You don't honestly think he can defeat me?" Yamamoto said with a grin, he then looked back at Dante, but Dante was not there, Dante was on a tree branch cutting a rope, he quickly made a trap while Yamamoto wasn't looking. Then a barrage of kunai's headed towards Yamamoto, Yamamoto grinned and chuckled as he dodged all of the kunai attacks.
" Is that all you got kid?" Yamamoto said with a evil laughter, his laughter was then interrupted by Satoshi hitting right on the chin. Yamamoto fell to the ground and rubbed his cheek, he then saw that the rock clone was in rubbles and Satoshi was free. Yamamoto growled as he got up, he then cursed as he saw Dante on the tree branch, the kunai headed towards Yamamoto was a distraction so that he can release his other trap that had kunai's heading towards the clone so that he can release the jutsu and Satoshi can defeat him.
Yamamoto chuckled. " Smart kid. He must be your prized pupil. I'd bet you would be hurt if I killed him first." Yamamoto bluffed, he knew better to go after a Genin first, Satoshi was the only threat he saw in the whole group. He can easily handle Genins, he thought to himself.
Dante sighed and was bit happy that he was able to free his sensei, now he felt a bit safer. Dante then appeared beside Satoshi ready to fight.
" I'm proud of you." Satoshi said with a smile, he then stared at Yamamoto, then he looked at the Anbu next to Yamamoto, wondering why he isn't joining the fight with his comrade. Satoshi then raised a eyebrow as he saw the man writing on a scroll, Satoshi didn't know what was going on but he wasn't about to find out the hard way, Satoshi then threw kunai and shurikens at the masked man, and so did Dante. Yamamoto grinned as he looked at his comrade, he then did hand seals.
" Earth Style: Earth Dome."
A dome formed over the mysterious man made from the ground, it reflected the kunai and shurikens. Yamamoto grinned and waved his finger at Dante and Satoshi.
" It's not going to be that easy." Yamamoto said with a grin and a evil chuckle as he the did more hand seals.
" Earth Style: Great Mud River."
The ground underneath Dante and Satoshi, turned in to a river of mud, making them slide away from Yamamoto as the river took them Yamamoto did another set of hand seals.
" Earth Style: Earth Dragon Bomb."
The river of mud turned in to a dragon's head, the dragon opened it's mouth and shot giant mud bombs at Satoshi and Dante. Dante and Satoshi got hit and they're backs hit trees, Dante was unconscious and Satoshi struggled to get up, he then panted and glared at Yamamoto, he then looked at Dante. Yamamoto let out a evil chuckle.
" You cannot defeat me." Yamamoto said with a grin as he looked back at the dome hoping his buddy was done with the scroll.
" I-It doesn't mean I can't try," Satoshi said as he growled and glared at Yamamoto. He then did rapid hand seals.
" Wind Style: Vacuum Bullets."
Satoshi took a deep breath and then he exhaled small wind bullets, many came out of his mouth and headed towards Yamamoto, they were quick and hard to dodge. Yamamoto grunted as most of the bullets hit him ripping most of his clothes to shreds and leaving him with deep cuts on his body. Satoshi then did another set of hand seals.
" Wind Style: Giant Vacuum Bullets."
Satoshi inhaled the wind bullets he let out and he then exhaled them into a giant sphere. Yamamoto got hit by the sphere and screamed out in pain as his whole body was now cut up and most of his clothing. The upper half of his uniform torn off with little shreds still hanging. The jutsu stopped and Yamamoto was on his knees panting and groaning from the pain. Satoshi panted as he was almost out of chakra, he then sighed.
" Had enough?" Satoshi said as he looked at Yamamoto and then the dome wondering what was going on in there.
Yamamoto let out a evil laughter as he struggled to get up, he then put his hand on his forehead and continued laughing.
" Stone Armour."
Yamamoto was now covered in stone which anyone can see with light present. He grinned at Satoshi and charged at him punching Satoshi in the face, thanks to the armor his strength was greatly increase so when he hit Satoshi, Satoshi went flying threw a tree and landed a couple feet away. Satoshi tries to get up but gets back down and is now unconscious. Yamamoto grinned again and let out a evil laughter as he composes himself. He then looked at the dome, and then he remembers that Dante is still left, he walks over to Dante and tilts his head at him and smirks. He then picks up Dante lifeless body, what Yamamoto didn't notice was that wasn't Dante body and it had paper bombs on the back of the body, when Yamamoto moves the Dante dupe chin to look in to his eyes, he now notices that it isn't Dante. The body then exploded and Yamamoto stumbles back as the Stone Armour protects him from the blast, Yamamoto then growls as he looks for Dante. Dante needed to find a way to destroy that armor so he can at least attempt to kill Yamamoto, though it would be his first time killing, Yamamoto has hurt his friends and mentor and Dante wasn't going to let that slide.
Dante was then thinking what jutsu he has in his arsenal that can at least weaken the armor or destroy it, all Dante knew was one Fire style and a couple of low ranking Water style jutsu. Dante sighed and rubbed his head trying to think, maybe he can use the muddy area that Yamamoto created with that jutsu he did, it would probably slow him down or make him sink with all that extra weight with the armor on. Dante inhaled and exhaled as his heart was beating rapidly. Dante decided that was the current plan, Dante then jumped to a tree branch which would give him the right angle so he can make Yamamoto move back towards the mud. Dante then threw two kunai's with a seal on them to blow up upon contact, Yamamoto grinned as he dodged one but the other blew up in front of him making him stumble back, Dante then decided to use a Water style jutsu with enough force to make Yamamoto move back even more. Dante was going to use a jutsu that Satoshi taught him while they were doing those boring missions. Dante did hand seals and jumped down to the ground.
" Water Style: Hand of Waves."
Dante put his hand out and a jet of water came out of it and hit Yamamoto. Yamamoto get's pushed back due to the force of the water and falls into the mud river, what Yamamoto didn't know from his own jutsu, is that the water affected his mobility and his defensive might making his Stone Armour useless and now that he still has it on while in the mud river it lead to him sinking slowly. Yamamoto growled he then deactivated the armor and curses as he gets out of the river and stands up. Yamamoto then sighed and clapped for Dante.
" Impressive kid. How is it a kid as smart as you is with a team full of useless teammates? You should consider joining the Bloody Mist Seven." Yamamoto said with a smirk, he then wiped the mud off his upper body and then charged at Dante doing a combination of punches, Dante eyes twitch a bit as he was almost able to see the punches coming before they landed, Dante dodged most of them but got hit by the last shots. Dante smiled as he wanted him to do it again. Yamamoto raised a eyebrow wondering why he was smiling, he then growled and threw a barraged of punches and strikes ending with a uppercut. Dante dodged the punches and blocks the kicks, but the uppercut hits and he falls to the ground, Dante gets up and motions him to try again, Yamamoto growls at Dante taunt and goes again at him now relentlessly throwing a combination of punches and a barrage of kicks. Dante smirks as he easily dodges all of the attacks and kicks Yamamoto to the ground, Dante eyes are now red as the Sharingan, a Kekkei Genkai for the Uchiha activates. Dante had two tomoe which is shaped as a comma on his right eye and one on his other, since this is his first time using it he is only able to predict movements before they happen and can copy hand movements. Dante smirked as he saw Yamamoto get back up and wiping blood from his mouth, Dante taunted him again to come towards him.
Yamamoto knows of the Sharingan but did not know that the Mist was carrying a Uchiha, he was a Anbu black op how did he not know this, it was something he definitely had to tell his comrades after this battle. Yamamoto growled at Dante taunt and was panting from losing his stamina and chakra from all of the jutsu he had used. He then sighed and charged at Dante again being more careful now that he knows Dante can see his movements before they happen due to the slightest muscle tension in Yamamoto body, Dante would be able to counterattack or dodge without any wasted movement. Yamamoto had to be unpredictable with his attacks, but that was easier said then done as Yamamoto showed him all of moves already and now that Dante knows plus the Sharingan, Yamamoto felt the balance shift in Dante direction, he was almost out of chakra and now he has to face a Uchiha. Yamamoto would rather die then to let the plan of the Bloody Mist Seven be ruined by a Genin. Yamamoto threw a barrage of unpredictable uppercuts and spinning back fists, and also some elbows, Dante smirked as he moved his head back from the uppercut, ducked the spinning back fist and hit Yamamoto stomach hard, and then he blocked the elbow. Now Dante was on the offensive, he threw fast punches and kicks, Yamamoto dodged the punches and got kicked once on his face but grabbed the last kick, Yamamoto kicked Dante stomach twice while he held his leg and then he threw him like he was a child toy again.
Dante got up and held his stomach, he thinks his ribs might be broken, he now has trouble breathing. Dante decided he had to finish Yamamoto now or at least attempt to injure him so badly that they can take him back to the village for questioning. Dante inhaled and then exhaled, he then charged at Yamamoto, he threw a combination of punches and tried to kick Yamamoto stomach. Yamamoto dodged most of the punches but got hit, but when the kick came he knew it was coming, but Dante knew he would try to catch his foot, Dante then jumped in the air as he faked his last kick, now that Dante was in the air behind Yamamoto, things seem to slow down for Dante, he can hear his own breathing and see Yamamoto turning around in slow motion. Dante smirks and did rapid hand seals.
" Fire Style: Fireball Jutsu."
A jet of flame came out of Dante mouth and formed a fireball around Yamamoto, the flame engulfed Yamamoto as he screams out in pain from his flesh being burned and his open cuts being burned as well. The fire stomps with a black mark on the ground around Yamamoto, Yamamoto groans as his life is being taken away from him. He tries to crawl towards Dante but only makes it half way, he then coughed and groaned some more as he was fully burned.
" Good job kid, you should consider my offer." Yamamoto said but then he was interrupted by his own coughing.
" You may think… the Mist village is safe….but your wrong…..A war is brewing…Your going to be apart of it." Yamamoto said as he groaned and then growled. He then sighed, and is now dead with his eyes open and his hair removed by the flames and his clothes torn apart from the battle.
Dante sighs and looks down at the dead body thinking about his last words, he then looked at Satoshi who was still unconscious, Dante limped towards his Sensei and deactivates his Sharingan. He then kneels on the ground and attempts to wake up his Sensei, Satoshi eyes open slowly trying to adjust his vision he then see Dante looking down at him.; Dante helps Satoshi up, Satoshi see Yamamoto dead burned body, he then looked at Dante.
" You did that?" Satoshi asked his student as they move towards the earth dome that was protecting Yamamoto comrade.
" It's a long story sensei." Dante said as he assisted his teacher, they were both limping from their long battle. Dante then wondered what happened to Kano and Yoshe, he then sighed knowing that Kano would be disappointed that he wasn't in the last battle. He then smiled.
As they walked over to the dome, Kano and Yoshe come out of the bushes. Kano now has a bandage covering the hole in his shoulder and Yoshe is assisting him with walking. Kano and Yoshe walk towards Dante and Satoshi, they both looked at the dead body that was severely burned, Kano then remembers what Yamamoto told him that he resembles his father who had left him when he was very young. Kano always thought that he just left because his mother died giving birth to him, maybe he just got tired of Kano. Kano didn't know but their was on thing Kano knew, he hated his father for abandon him and making him live a lonely sad life in the orphanage. Kano then sighed as he looked at his team mates and Sensei, the team looks at the dome, Satoshi examines the dome, he knows that wind style jutsu can destroy earth style jutsu. Satoshi did hand seals with the bit of chakra he still has leftover.
" Wind Style: Vacuum Bullet."
Satoshi inhaled and then exhaled wind bullets came out of his mouth and cut up the dome to pieces, as they dome breaks and crumbles the group see that their was no one inside.
" Oh man, this can't be good." Satoshi said as he looked around the rubble and see a hole and a scroll next to the hole, Satoshi walks to the scroll and opens it seeing that it was the scroll they were tasked with delivering.
Dante walks over to the hole which show a little tunnel, Dante had read of a jutsu that would make the ground look like that. It was Earth Style: Hidden Mole Jutsu. This technique changes earth into fine sand by channelling chakra into it, allowing the user to dig through it like a mole. This effect goes around the body (not just the hands), making it just large enough for a person to move through. The user can pinpoint where they are, despite being underground, by sensing the magnetic forces. They can also sense what is happening on the surface and use that information to launch a surprise attack on the enemy. One can also hide deep in the ground, escaping to a depth where the enemy can't reach. Dante then explained it to the group and they nodded.
Satoshi sighed and then shrugged. " Well we can't go after him because, were all injured and need to find a town with a hospital and we need to deliver this scroll before another person comes after it." Satoshi said with a smile as him and his group go walking looking for a nearby town.
Meanwhile at the entrance of the Stone Village. A tall muscular man with long spiky silver colored hair that he has in a ponytail walks in to the village as he showed the entrance guards something he says will please the Tsuchikage, who is the Kage of the stone village. They let him in and he observes his surroundings the village was surrounded by rocky mountains. The rocky mountain ranges that surround the village and country provide a natural stronghold. The village profits from this advantageous position and is proud of its strong defenses. The village sits among a mountain range consisting of small narrow waterfalls, with the buildings being composed of rock and stone; shaped from large, elevated formations of rock into tower-like structures. Many of its buildings sit on cliffs connected by a network of bridges. The Tsuchikage's palace seems to be the tallest structure with a cone shaped roof.
The mysterious man chuckles as he walks through the village without his Anbu mask on or anything indicating that he is a ninja from the Mist Village, he wasn't stupid enough to go into hostile territory with a headband from a village that they hate. His long silver pony tail swings as it is loose normally a headband would keep it some what together. As he walks through the village he notices the big nose villagers of the village, most of them are brown skinned others had a fair skin color. He looked at the kids playing around the village, if only they knew what was going to happen to them. He chuckled and continued walking, he now made his way to the Tsuchikage palace, he then sighed and walked through the door to see a whole bunch of ninja's standing in front of him, it was at least twenty of them, some of them lined up on the stairwell others were beside him next to the door. He chuckled as he realize that he has been made, his reputation has gotten world wide he assumed. He then sighed as all the big nosed ninjas glared at him, he grinned and looked around. He then saw a man he presumed was the Tsuchikage, the man was very short, old man with a triangular beard and a moustache that has angular corners, a big red nose and thick eyebrows. The top of his head is completely bald, although, he has long white hair on the lower-half of his head which is styled in a traditional chonomage hair cut, the back of which is tied with a yellow ribbon into a topknot. He wears a green and yellow coat with a red collar. Underneath he wears the traditional Iwagakure outfit consistent of flak jacket mesh armour. He however has both his sleeves of his shirt, but kept the single lapel on his right side. Along with this he wears sandals.
The small red nose man walked towards him, the Tsuchikage was extremely powerful and extremely old. The Tsuchikage name was
Ōnoki, he has fought many ninjas including the very powerful Madara Uchiha, he is the only man alive that has fought Madara and still lives.
" Why are you here White Wolf? Your far away from the Mist Village."
Ōnoki asked the White Wolf with a concern stubborn face.
White Wolf grinned showing his sharp teeth, he then chuckled. " It's nice to see you too Tsuchikage-sama. I'm here carrying news for you and your village. It's very important and I suggest you take a look at it." White Wolf said with a chuckle as he reached in to his vest and took out a scroll with the Mist Village seal on it.
Ōnoki rubbed his chin and looked at White Wolf, he then took the scroll and observed it to see if it was a fake, he then opened the scroll deeming it a real thing. He read what was in the scroll it implied that Mist Village ninjas are heading to the Leaf Village to forge a alliance that would work together to go against the Stone Village, because the Stone Village was known for always being a bit shady when they worked with others, they usually worked together with other villages to have a advantage of some kind over them, they would usually come out on top during joint missions. The last time the Mist asked for assistance the Stone agreed but when the Mist got what they wanted which was a scroll, the Stone village killed their ninjas and stole the scroll from them, only one man remained alive and was able to tell the Mizukage. Ever since then the Mist and Stone village have been at each other throats but neither would risk war, until now thanks to the Bloody Mist Seven instigating events between the two.
Ōnoki looked at White Wolf curiously. " Why are you showing me this?" Ōnoki asked White Wolf.
White Wolf smirked and looked down at the small Kage. " In case you didn't know, I'm a mercenary now and was paid to give this too you." White Wolf lied as he looked in to the Tsuchikage eyes.
Ōnoki nodded he had known White Wolf had turned in to a mercenary but he didn't know he would have the stones to betray his own village. " Very well, you may leave." Ōnoki said as he looked at the White Wolf and then walked away from him now going to his office.
White Wolf nodded and left with a grin in his face.
Ōnoki called in a Jonin from his village and sat on his chair. " You are to go to the Leaf Village and put your squad through the Chunin exams that are going to happen soon. It doesn't matter if your team wins, I want thos Mist ninjas exterminated. Do I make myself clear?" Ōnoki said as he looked at the Jonin seriously. The Jonin nodded and poofed away. Ōnoki looked out his window, he was wondering if his village was ready for another war.
