Reckless Fire
Jigoku's POV:
That's it! This guy is so fucking dead. First he put me in some damn illusion and now I'm wet as a fucking fish. Well let's see how he like my Burning Impact. As I leaped into the air, I felt the warm comfort of the heat being ignited by my ki as I burst into flames. Up in the air I saw him, the guy who looks like the runt's teammate only older an more of a pretty boy. God I fucking hate pretty boys, they always get the damn chicks. As I glare at him, he stares at me with those black eyes. I am seriously gonna wipe that look off his god damn motherfucking face.
"BALLISTIC BURNING IMPACT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" I shouted as I dived towards him. When I reached the ground the bastard leaped out of the way. I was kneeling on the pavement as I glared at him again. He put his hands together and was making weird gestures with them. I think Fanggles said they were called hand seals or something like that. Then he put one of his hands to his mouth and spat out a huge flame at me. Without a second thought I spun my body out at random direction with my legs out and my arms switching on the ground.
"RAPID KILLER DRAGON FLAME!!!!!!!!!!!!" I shouted to block his attack. Everyone of the ninjas watched in awe as I canceled out this guy's attack. Using this as an advantage I unleashed another Burning Impact on him, but he pulled out a katana and stabbed me in the gut. Now this asshole is talking about some bullshit I can't hear, then he kicked me into the air and I landed into a fucking tree. I really hate this asshole, and I don't even know his FUCKING NAME.
Ryoga's POV:
As I watch my best friend become engulf by his own fire. I knew that whoever this guy is he has to be strong to get Jigoku to go all out. I turned to look at the genin instructors to see their reactions to Jigoku. They have a hard time understanding Jigoku and I can't blame them. Jigoku was always a loose cannon when it comes to fighting. He loves combat more than anything else, and if his enemy is stronger than him, then he's happy.
"How can this guy keep going? He's using too much charka with those fire jutsu if they can even be called that," said Kurenai as she watches him.
I have a hard time remembering which kids she teaches, but I think that pale eyed girl that Naruto likes is one of her students. Regardless I felt like I should answer her question so I did.
"That's one of the things about Jigoku no one tries to understand. Jigoku lives for combat, almost like that's his purpose in life or something," I answered in some-what of a riddle. We all watched Jigoku use a second Burning Impact only to see Jigoku get stabbed by a katana and then get kick into the sky. I watched him land into a tree and suddenly I sensed an increase in ki surrounding Jigoku. During my time with him I learned to fear this attack.
"JIGOKU!!!!!!!! DON'T USE THAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" I yelled as I ran toward him followed by the curious Jounin.
Normal POV:
As Jigoku got out of the tree his left hand was engulfed in fire again. This time the fire was larger, it was like the flame was growing as Jigoku got angrier. The flames reacted to Jigoku's rage like it was lighter fluid, growing larger by the second. Not only is his power rising, but it was being felt by one person who can't stand the pain it's giving him.
As Naruto, Kin, and Jiraiya leave the gate of Konoha, Naruto suddenly dropped to the ground holding his head groaning in agony. Kin and Jiraiya moved to Naruto's side trying to calm him down.
"Naruto! What's wrong?!" yelled a frightened Kin as she tried to grab her "partner in crime" but he moved away from her. Naruto's shouting caught the attention the kunoichi genin who followed the trio to the gate. Out of the four girls Hinata was the most worried about her crush.
Naruto clutched his head tighter as the pain grew after every shout. He could barely hold out much longer as his crystal started to form on his forehead in front of everyone. As his crystal formed on his head a small cyclone surrounded him to prevent anyone from getting closer to him. Caught off guard by the cyclone, Jiraiya and Kin were blown away from Naruto and flew five yards from where they were.
"What's going on?!!" screamed Sakura as she watched Naruto continue screaming.
"How should I know, he's your teammate right?!" yelled a just as shocked Ino who was trying to keep the sand away from her eyes and hair.
"Naruto-kun….." whispered Hinata as she watched in worry and wishing something would happen to help him.
"We can't just stand here doing nothing we have to help him," said Tenten trying to get the other girls to react.
Before any of them could even think of something Naruto was floating in the air because of the cyclone. He was still holding his head in pain and was still shouting getting everyone's attention as they watched the blonde Berserker float in the air. Not only was he shouting at unbelievable levels his chakra was rising at high levels affecting everyone in the village. In the Hyuga manor, both Main and Branch members felt his power and used their Byakugan. The Inuzuka's dogs were whimpering as they felt Naruto's uncontrolled power and the Aburame clan's kikaichu also felt the immense power from the young Berserker and are flying around wildly. Sasuke who was trying to find Naruto, who felt Naruto's chakra signature and ran to the source.
Meanwhile back with Jigoku, he was still charging up his attack, until he felt Naruto's ki rising at a dangerous level. Jigoku stopped charging his ki just as Itachi came to see him. The two glared at each other for a few seconds, Itachi sensed that Jigoku was debating with himself between fighting him or leaving. Both men felt a rise in power coming from the main gate and Jigoku dashed to that direction with Itachi following.
As Sasuke reached the main gate he saw Naruto floating in midair and Jiraiya, Kin, and the Kunoichi genin there watching Naruto. Suddenly Naruto let go of his head and started falling toward the ground. Everyone was shocked and Sasuke and Jiraiya tried to reach Naruto before he hit the ground, but they couldn't reach him in time. Before Naruto reached the earth Jigoku leaped into the air from behind Sasuke, caught Naruto and skidded forward when he touched the ground and then tripped and started rolling. Amazingly enough he stood up hold an unconscious Naruto who was unharmed. The Konoha shinobi were surprised by Jigoku's sudden appearance and willingness to put himself in harms way for Naruto. Before they could say anything Itachi caught up with Jigoku and stared blankly at Jigoku holding Naruto.
"So, that's where the Yondaime's legacy is," said Itachi as he continued to stare at Jigoku.
"ITACHI!!!!!" yelled Sasuke when he saw his brother as he went through hand seals and started forming lightning into his left hand. "DIE!!!!!! CHIDORI!!!!!!!!!!!" he yelled as he ran towards his brother with the intent to kill him. When he reached Itachi, Sasuke's chidori was blocked by his brother.
"That was pathetic little brother," said Itachi as he threw Sasuke towards the genin. He turned his attention back to the two Berserkers. "Now hand me the boy and I may let you live," he said as he moved towards Jigoku. Jigoku glared at Itachi, then turn his head and looked at Hinata.
"Hey pipsqueak come here and watch over my runt for me, will ya?" said the older Berserker. Hinata who was shocked by the nickname obeyed regardless and moved towards Jigoku. Jigoku handed Naruto to Hinata who propped the boy's head onto her lap despite her nervousness. After seeing his brother safe Jigoku turned his attention back to Itachi. "Alright Mr. He-She this time the kid glove come off," insulted Jigoku who has basically given everyone in the area a horrible mental image of Itachi. Jigoku moved his arms to the sides and formed his chakra blades in front of everyone.
'No way! He's a Berserker too?' thought Kin as she saw Jigoku use his bloodline for the first time.
'That's impossible, Naruto's an orphan. How can this guy have the same bloodline as him?' pondered Sakura as she looked at the older Berserker.
'What is this guy?' wondered Tenten staring in awe at Jigoku's chakra formed blades.
'This is insane, how can he do that without making any hand seals?' thought Jiraiya trying to find the answer to this problem.
'Where did the dobe and this freak get this kind of power?' pondered Sasuke as he stared at Jigoku with his Sharingan trying to see if he can copy it, but sadly for him, he can't.
'I remember seeing Naruto use the same blades. So if this guy can use them and if it's a bloodline then all I have to do to get it in my family is to have either his kids or Naruto's. That shouldn't be a problem,' plotted Ino thinking of how her clan's jutsu can be combined with the Berserkers.
"Interesting, but I doubt it will make a difference," said Itachi who was not impressed.
"Well then I guess I'll have to give you a demo on what I can do with these babies," responded Jigoku as he dashed towards Itachi.
Jigoku attacked Itachi with his right blades swung downwards at Itachi's head. Itachi dodged the attack, and saw that Jigoku's blade cut a nearby tree in two easily. Then Jigoku swung his left blade horizontally at Itachi's gut, but Itachi jumped back to avoid the attack. Itachi stared into Jigoku's eyes and saw that Jigoku was not afraid of him or his Sharingan. All he saw in those cat-like eyes is desire. Desire to kill him and it scared him, because during another dodge Jigoku almost decapitated Tenten who barely ducked from the attack. Suddenly Jigoku jumped into the air and form a pressure shot and fired it at Itachi's head. Itachi lunged forward and fire a huge fireball at Jigoku who was still in the air. Jigoku dodged the attack from midair and landed two feet away from the shinobi and tried to strike at him with his blades again. Just as they continued to fight Kisame came with the Konoha Jounin and Ryoga close behind.
"Itachi! We have to get out of here! Everything's been compromised!" yelled Kisame as he dodged one of Ryoga's ice attacks.
"I agree Kisame, we must leave now," said Itachi as he vanished in a swirl of leaves and Kisame disappeared in a sudden fog. When the fog cleared Jigoku stood there pissed that his opponent bailed out on him.
PREVIEW:
After facing Itachi and remembering his battle against Riskoe, Jigoku becomes driven to unlock his own Battle Clad form and begins to do something he has never actually done, training. As Jigoku trains to achieve Battle Clad, Naruto, Kin, and Jiraiya leave to find his old teammate Tsundae, and I mean old. But as always with the Berserkers the Kekkei Kage sends three new Blood-Warriors called the "Lost Blood" unit to capture Naruto while aiding Orochimaru in his own personal affair. Next time on Naruto: Bad Blood, Give a reason.
Author's Note:
Well there's Reckless Fire, I have to say I'm not really proud of this one since I think it's not very violent. The only reason I can come up with is that it's because I have graduated, but I am held over for the time being because my orders have not come in yet. I've found out that I'm going to Korea for my first duty station, so I have no idea if I can finish my story before I go there. Regardless I will at least try to work on my story during my time held over and during my leave if possible until then wish me luck.
