CHAPTER 6

Demon of The Mist vs Monster Shark Of Oto Part 2

'Kuso, a jutsu that has no chakra, I never expected something like this from them, or anyone for that matter...' Thought Naruto with a bemused smile.

'But, there can never really be any jutsu without expanding energy in any form or at any stage of a jutsu. But...the only method that I know of to produce an end result that has no chakra is through the use of an advanced sealing matrix. Probably...he would have had to channel a portion of his chakra into the sword, and then a sealing matrix engraved into the weapon would absorb the chakra and use it to create the water. From then on, another advanced seal would be used to pressurize and concentrate the water into any shape or form the user can think of. But that's ridiculous, this is Uzumaki clan level sealing arts, could it be that...no, it doesn't matter, if this really is the work of an Uzumaki, then I will simply defeat it with an even better clan jutsu...' Thought the blonde haired jinchuuriki.

"Secret Sealing Art: Splitting Void Shield" Whispered the blonde harshly. Having rapidly molded the hand seals, Naruto quickly crouched down and slammed his right hand onto the ground, a large sealing matrix spreading on the ground from the point of impact. A circular, transparent barrier erected itself from the circumference of the circular shaped seal, protecting the blond from all sides, all of this happening in the space of a second.

The giant, pressurised wave crashed against the shield violently, some or rather most of the water flowing over and around the shield because of the shear shize of the technique, but to no avail, the shield not even looking the slightest bit affected by the jutsu.

'With the Hidden Mist Jutsu active, I can sense the position of the enemy at all times and from then on attack and react to his movements using sound alone, but...I can't hear or even sense his presence all of a sudden, almost like he disappeared off of the surface of the earth! Just what the hell is going on here, what are we truly up against?' Thought Zabuza from his own hiding spot, Suigetsu and Haku going through the same thoughts as he was.

'What a jutsu, his attack must have reached even the Tazuna san's bridge all the way from here, luckily his attack was directed away from the city itself, otherwise there would have been a lot of casualties. In any case, I should end this quickly, but to do that I have to bait them into a close range confrontation...sigh...I'll have to release the barrier to do that though...and then ressurect a different kind of barrier.' Thought Naruto, cancelling his jutsu with a ram hand sign and a small flare of chakra, which was also intended to give away his location to the enemy. Following that, the blond quickly blazed through a few more hand seals before clasping his hands together in concentration.

"Secret Sealing Art: Displacement Sound Barrier!" Whispered the blonde, from his hand a bubble shaped, transparent barrier formed slowly before spreading out rapidly, the barrier grew so big and so fast that it covered the whole battle area, up to the beginning point of the surrounding forest.

'All set, my sensor is nullified by the chakra concentrated mist and while my hearing is better then most, it still wouldn't be enough for me to keep up with three silent killing specialists, especially with Zabuza, the best user of the art being one of the three. But with this sound detection barrier, I can even see in the mist!' Thought the blonde, adopting a battle ready stance. While the blonde had been finalising his battle strategy, so were his opponents, having come up with an effective attack plan, Zabuza started the movement with his trademark method of intimidation.

"Lungs, liver, spine, clavicle vein, Carotid artery, brain, kidneys, and the heart…which one should I pick...!" Zabuza's voice was laced with a heavy intent to kill, his voice projecting all around the battlefield, making his actual position impossible to decipher.

'Hn, that's fine by me, play your little games for now, but it will be over as soon as you enter my sound barrier...' Naruto had to discard his thoughts with haste as a sinister presence manifested itself behind him in the form of the Demon Of The Mist, the swordsman had taken on a slightly crouched position with the Kubikiribocho placed horizontally across his shoulders behind his neck and his right hand firmly locked around the handle of the blade.

"Its ends now, Silent Homicide Technique!" Whispered Zabuza gruffly, executing a back handed horizontal slash with great speed and force, but the blonde was just as quick to react, having detected the demon's presence and movements with his sound barrier, scales intantly covered his torso and arms as the blonde swung his left arm around to block the head cleaver.

Boom!

A massive shock wave washed over the battle ground with a great booming sound, the collision was so fierce so much that the ground between the two combatants started to break apart from the shear power that the two combats on display were able to produce.

'Check ..." Said a Zabuza with a sinister smirk that couldn't be seen through the heavy mist and his mask like bandages, although Naruto didn't need to see it to know that it was there.

"What are you..." Trailed off the blonde with widened eyes.

"Double Decapitating Homicide Technique!" Shouted Suigetsu from behind the blonde, executing the same technique as his sensei in the exact same manner, except instead of striking the blonde's torso, he rather went for a slash across his legs with his Blue Wave Gun.

'A tag team attack, he's aiming for my legs...!' Thought the blonde, his eyes widening in surprise.

Boom!

An even bigger shock wave washed over the battle ground, the power of the attack this time creating a massive creater beneath the three combatants, to Suigetsu and Zabuza's equal surprise. That wasn't supposed happen was it? Suigetsu was supposed to slice through the human shark's limbs and the battle was supposed to end, but Zabuza knew immediately that the blonde Namikaze had stopped Suigetsu's attack, because there wouldn't have been any impact at all had it been successful, the cleaver would have simply sliced through the blonde like a knife through butter.

'Kuso! That was a close call, I never expected him to go for my legs nor did I expect him to pack so much physical force. His attack may have been slower then Zabuza's, but it was much more powerful, how did he do that?' Thought Naruto.

The dust, debris, and even the mist disappeared slowly but surely, allowing all three combatants to finally open their eyes and see what had transpired with their own eyes. Naruto was shocked to find the answers to his questions, staring with unconcealed surprise and curiosity at Suigetsu's enlarged arms, it looked at least three times bigger then its normal size.

'I understand now, Using the Hydrification Technique of the Hozuki clan, he can gather moisture from the rest of his body and compress it in his arm, this not only enlarges his limb, but exponentially increases his strength too, this is type of super strength technique.' Thought Naruto.

"You like it? This is my Water Release Great Water Arm Technique! Impressive huh...hehehe...demo...could you please explain to us how you stopped my attack with your bare leg...actually...hehehe...it would also be kind of you if you told us how you were able to intercept our double silent homicide jutsu, come on, play fair will ya hehehe...by the way you look much better in human blonde then blue shark?" Asked Suigetsu sarcastically, not really expecting a response from the blonde haired enigma.

"Hn, since you asked so nicely, I'll let you know, I set up a sound barrier while the two of you were busy playing hide and seek in the mist. The barrier records every single sound within its range, the sound frequencies are then transfered back to my brain directly and converted into optical information, giving me a type of infrared vision in the dark and in this case, the mist. You get it now, I saw your attacks coming from a mile away." Said Naruto with a sadistic smirk that looked like an exact replica to the one Suigetsu was directing at him.

"I understand now, in fact, I suspected this from the start, your shark appearance, your association with Orochimaru, your ability to absorb chakra in large quantities, and now, the scales on your body...the experiment that was done to you was a a merger or fusion with the great Samehada of Kiri wasn't it, and that is how you were able to stop both of our attacks, hidden beneath those pants on your legs, are smaller scales that you covered your skin with just before impact. I have one question to ask you, if you are indeed merged with Samehada, then what became of Hoshigaki Kisame, is he dead?" Asked Zabuza with narrowed eyes, for some reason bothered by the possibility of the shark man's death, maybe because he was a former comrade, or just maybe he didn't like the possiblity of someone out there being strong enough to take out the strongest member of the great organisation he belonged to.

"Last time I checked he was alive and still in possession of his sword, but then again Orochimaru sama hasn't met up with him for years now, they just worked together on one mission and Samehada just happened to lose a small shard of his scales during the mission...the rest I'm sure you can figure out on your own." Said the Blonde.

"Heh...that Snake psycho and Kisame senpei have worked together before! Heh, what a small world." Said Suigetsu nonchalantly.

"I can't bring myself to believe that Kisame has allied himself with the likes of him, what could he possibly gain from working with that man, did he promise him power too?" Asked Zabuza authoratively, even though he held absolutely no real authority in the situation.

"Its not what you think it is, trust me..." Said the blonde cryptically.

"I see, if you won't talk freely then...we'll force it out of you! This is check mate, now Haku!" Shouted Zabuza. Almost instantly, an ice mirror formed out of the atmosphere in front of the blonde, Haku shot out of the mirror with great speed with two senbon, one each of his hands poised to stab the blonde right in the eyes.

'Kuso, I almost forgot about him, so this is what they were planning, a three stage attack plan where the first two attacks were meant to occupy my attention and my limbs, and the third one aimed for my only weak point, after all, I can't exactly grow scales on my eyes...demo, I still have that jutsu...'

"Piston Fist: Style One!" Naruto was unable to finish his thoughts and Haku was unable to execute his attack as he was blasted into the ground by the most powerful hit he had ever received in his entire existense as a shinobi, his body digging a long trench into the ground.

"Are you alright otouto?" Asked Jugo with a calm aura that people who had met him more then two years ago would never believe.

"Yeah I'm fine, nice save aniki, even though, I could have handled it myself..." Replied Naruto.

"I'm sure you could have, but the suspense you created was too much, I had no choice but to join the battle otherwise I might have gone crazy." Said Jugo.

"Hehe, sorry about that, but you know that attack won't be enough to take your opponent out, he has some kind of armour protecting his body, I can feel the chakra all around his body." Said Naruto.

"Hey...who the hell is this, I thought you were going to fight us alone?" Asked Suigetsu petulantly.

Jugo, ignoring Suigetsu quickly boostered himself into the air with his jet boosters. By the time he reached a preferable height he'd already entered full curse mode and the six jet boosters on his back were already turned upwards.

"I'll end this with this one attack, Curse Mode: Destroying Hammer Heal Drop!" Shouted Jugo. Jugo fired the jet boosters on his back that were pointed upwards, having the effect of propelling Jugo downwards at ridiculous speeds, what made the attack even more dangerous was the hammer like appendage that grew on the back of his lower leg and around his heel.

Haku, having been dissoriented by the impact from the earlier surprise attack only had time to re-ennforce his ice armour with more chakra, unable to dodge the super fast and unexpected assualt.

Bang!

The sound of impact was ear shattering, so loud that it could be heard on the other side of the island. The ground itself broke up into quake like segments, caving in from the pressure and a giant creater formed beneath the ice user and the sound 5 leader.

"Aaargh...! Gwaaaah!" Screamed out Haku in pain, the ice shield covering his body cracking up rapidly before completely shattering.

"I...impossible! He broke through Haku's Ice Armour, what monstrous strength!" Thought Zabuza.

"Aren't you supposed to pay attention to your own battle? Scale Manipulation: Poccupine Effect!" Said Naruto, projecting out sharp and pointed scales from all over his body in an attempt to scewer the swordsman duo.

"Kuso! Get away from him Suigetsu!" Shouted Zabuza, jumping away from the blonde with great haste, skidding to a halt a few metres away.

"Right ahead of ya...!" Shouted Suigetsu, showing great mobilty and skill in dodging the blonde's chakra draining appendages. The blonde, realising that his enemy had gotten away receded back to his original human form, his scales sinking back into his skin. Naruto immediately activated a seal on his right forearm, with a small puff of smoke four tri pronged kunai manifested between the blonde's five fingers.

"First I'll take care of you, Suigetsu!" Said Naruto, throwing the four kunai with great speed in Suigetsu's direction. To Zabuza, and more so Suigetsu's bemusement, all four kunai completely missed their target, digging into the ground around the Hozuki prodigy.

"Those kunai...those seal tags around the handle...this is...get away from the kunai Suigetsu!" Shouted Zabuza.

"Too late! Secret Sealing Art: Splitting Void Prison!" Shouted Naruto, clasping his hands together after blazing through a few hand seals.

Suigetsu tried to flee but was too late to react as proven when he splattered against an invisible barrier, his body automatically turning into liquid upon impact, an eight by eight metre, transparent barrier formed around Suigetsu from the four kunai that were lodged into the ground.

"What the hell is this?" Asked Suigetsu in shock, hating the uncomfortable feeling of hydrifying unexpectedly.

"Its too late for you, this is an advanced prison barrier of my own creation, this is a space time barrier that is created through manipulation of the sound vibrations in the atmosphere. The vibration frequencies are so powerful that the jutsu distorts and splits the space and time itself, creating a seperate plain within this world, think of it as a storage scroll but instead used to store captives and still be able to watch over them." Explained Naruto, knowing that Suigetsu could read his lips even if he couldn't hear him from inside the barrier.

'This barrier originates from those four weird kunai he threw at me, given how deep they are stuck to the ground, I have to assume that the barrier has completely enclosed me, even from under the ground, but I have to check to make sure!' Thought Suigetsu, channelling a lot of chakra into his cleaver.

"Sword Ninpo: Boiling Current!" Shouted Suigetsu from within the barrier, although the sound of his voice never reached the outside. A large amount of boiling water, pressured and concentrated into a razor sharp, shark toothed shape, formed around the tip of his sword. Suigetsu followed up by jumping high up and swinging the sword downwards violently, releasing the boiling water with amazing speed towards the ground.

Th attack completely destroyed the surface of the battle field, but true to Suigetsu's suspicions, couldn't go through the barrier and in fact the attack was deflected by the barrier violently, missing Suigetsu by an inch before deflecting off of the top of the barrier and so on all around the barrier. Suigetsu found himself straining to dodge his own attack but eventually was able to suck it back into his sword with a precisely aimed swipe.

"He's not very smart that one is he?" Asked Jugo, walking towards the blonde with slow steps, with the body of his opponent placed on his shoulder.

"No he's smart alright, but very reckless though. In any case, is Haku still alive?" Asked Naruto.

"Yeah he's alive alright, just unconscious, that ice armour of his is something else, he's really strong." Said Jugo.

"I see, well that settles it then, just one more to go." Said Naruto, turning around to face the demon of the mist who had been quietly analysing the situation thoughtfully.

"Hn...if you think this is over then you've got another thing coming brat. Every jutsu has a weakness that can be exploited, like for instance, it may be impossible to dispel your barrier from the but from the outside..." Trailed off Zabuza, throwing a shuriken at one of the tri pronged kunai in the ground.

"All I have to do is knock off one of those weird kunai and the whole barrier will collapse!" Said Zabuza with a confident smirk on his face.

'Off course! Why didn't I think of that! Good move, Zabuza-sensei!' Thought Suigetsu.

"Heh...now the numbers will be even again...,n-nani!" Exclaimed Zabuza in shock, his cocky smirk transforming into an angry snarl, watching his shuriken fly away uselessly, having bounced off of a an invisible barrier that was protecting the kunai as well.

"Well I'd like to brag and ask if you really thought that I wouldn't have protected the weak point of my barrier, but to be honest I really have to thank the sound 5 for that idea. Your plan might have worked if I hadn't improved my barrier after seeing what they can do with their Four Violet Flames Battle Encampment Barrier!" Explained Naruto.

"Hn..." Grunted Zabuza uncaringly, but still maintaining a battle ready posture with his cleaver placed on his left shoulder.

"You should forfeit, its two against one, you're no match for the two of us together, you're all alone now." Said the blonde.

"Even if you win the battle, we won't be joining you, the deal was that we had to defeat you alone, but you had help." Said Zabuza defiantly.

"Wrong, I never said that I would be fighting alone, I simply said that you had to beat me for me to become your tool. But you failed to do that, and now you have to come back to Oto with us." Retorted Naruto.

"Well I'm not going to forfeit to a mere brat like you, you're going to have to beat me if you..." Trailed of Zabuza in shock, a fish eyed expression on his face, finding the blonde standing in right in front of him all of a sudden with his the palm of his hand firmly placed on his belly with a sealing array spreading across the demon's torso from the point of impact.

"You...this can't be! This is...!" Thought Zabuza out loud in shock.

"Yes, this is the Hirashin no Jutsu, and now I'll end it with my next jutsu, Uzumaki Clan Secret Sealing Style: Adementine Supression Chains!" Whispered the blonde.

"I won't lose to...gwaaah!" Screamed out Zabuza as multiple chains exploded out of the seal, rapidly wrapping themselves around their target from neck to toe, Zabuza, who had been about to decapitate the blond with his cleaver had no chance, the cleaver dropping onto the floor with his arms bound together against his body. The sudden constriction caused the demon of the mist to lose his balance and fall on his back limply.

"Don't bother to struggle against it, those are chakra supression chains and they are re- enforced with powerful seals, they will never break." Said the blonde calmly.

"Damn you...I thought I recognised those kunai from somewhere, so you're the second coming of the Yellow Flash after all, we never stood a chance did we? Demo...I thought you had to transport yourself to a location close to the kunai, how did you transport to me?" Asked Zabuza in a gruff but subdued manner, at least for him.

"He placed a seal on your sword earlier when you clashed inside your hidden mist technique, you didn't see him do it because you had your eyes closed at the time in order to focus on your silent homicide technique. If you aren't careful about how you use your jutsu, it will be used against you. You said so yourself earlier, that every jutsu has a weakness, the same applies to you, this was the weakness of your jutsu." Explained Jugo, walking up next to his brother figure.

"Kuso! Zabuza-sensei lost too! Great, now we get to become experiments!" Said Suigetsu to himself in exasperation.

"Someone's coming, I sense a lot of lightning natured chakra, it must be..." Naruto was cut off mid sentence by the arrival of Raiga, a tall, but not as tall as Zabuza man with dark greenish hair, a dark complexion and thick brown lips, wearing only a standard Kiri jounin vest on his upper body and black A.N.B.U pants and black ninja sandals. Though what everyone found perculiar was the bone sword sticking out of his shoulder and the numerous wounds and blood all over his body.

"Zabuza, we need your help you bastard! We just got attacked by...by..." Raiga's mouth was left hanging agape in shock and fear, his eyes able to see but his mind almost refusing to believe the information being sent to his brain.

"What the hell is going on man! Zabuza, who are these..."

"Hahaha! I found you! Come on now, stop playing hard to get, I still wana play with you a little bit more ahahahahaha!" Came a voice that sounded like the most evil voice Zabuza had ever heard in his life from behind Raiga, but suspiciously had a familiar undertone. Raiga, in a feat of great speed worthy of his elite status was able to dodge a bone sword from impaling him through his back just in the nick of time, blocking the follow up with his now lightning covered dual swords.

"Kuso! Damn you Kimimaro what the fuck is wrong with you! I'm gonna burry you alive for this when this is over! Just you wait and see, me and the boys will celebrate your life at your funeral you traitor!" Shouted Raiga angrily, confused, shocked, and angered by the white haired Kaguya's ruthless assualt.

"Hahahaha! Oh I don't think you'll live long enough to do that, unless you plan to celebrate your own funeral ahahahaha!" Shouted the boy with mad elation, launching super fast slashes and thrusts that kept the experienced swordsman on the back foot.

"Ido! When I find you I'm gonna make you pay for disobeying my orders you childish fool! What kind of mother figure acts like such a child!" Shouted a voice that Jugo and Naruto both recognised as Yakumo's from the surrounding forest.

"She must have used the mind transfer technique on the Kaguya kid to tranfer Ido's consciousness into him. What a usefuly technique." Said Jugo.

"Yeah, she can bypass the disadvantage of the jutsu because there's always someone inhibitting her own body, whether its her or Ido, but then again, Ido's never really followed orders in great detail." Said Naruto, clasping one of his hands against his forehead in exasperation...

End Chapter!

Alright that's it for now guys, the title of the next chapter will be "The Hero of Wave", will also quickly wrap up the battle.

Grammer mistakes will be fixed when I get a chance.

If you are shocked by the early update depite proclaiming that I would be too busy in the last chapter for the next two weeks, just know that I am also on the same boat as you, I was just going to type the disclaimer and title like I always do in preparation for when I'm ready to start a new chapter but I ended up with this, anyway I hope it was good enough.

Hope yaw enjoyed it and thanks for all the reviews.

Peace!
