"I need a response team," Tsunade said as she walked out of the hospital with Shizune following close behind her. She sent Shikamaru and Naruto's team almost three hours ago and something was telling her that they would need back up. She heard a cough from behind her and turned to see Rock Lee standing there. He had his shirt off and was slowly wrapping his arms with his tape. Shizune had removed his shirt to perform his check up and he left in a rush.

"Lee what are you doing out of your room?" Shizune questioned as she scolded the Genin. "You are to be in bed for at least another week."

"In all honestly Shizune-chan," Lee said with a smirk and fire in his eyes. "I've been in bed for far too long and it's about time that I stretch my legs."
"Lee you…"Shizune started but was cut off by Tsunade.

"Rock Lee!" Tsuande snapped. She paused for a moment building the suspense as she stared at the boy. He had a pleading look in his eyes and she gave a quick smile. "You will pick up the first Inuzaka available and head out. You may also add any available ninja that can keep up with you. Your mission, is to make sure our team comes back alive at all cost!"

"Thanks Hokage-sama," Lee said as he bowed. "Konoha's Handsome Green Beast shall not fail you! I ask only one thing in return though."

"Name it," Tsunade said with a smirk.

"Please tell Sakura that I might not return on time for our date," Lee said with a smirk. "She can get kind of angry when I don't tell her I'm doing things."

"I will tell her Lee-san," Shizune said as she ruffled his hair. "Now go, there's no time to lose."

"Kind of remind me of someone," Tsunade said with a smirk as a blushing Shizune stared at the boy's retreating form.

"He's Guy-kun, but like fun sized," Shizune said with a blushing smirk.

"Where is your shy green beast of a man?" Tsuande asked as they walked towards the Hokage office. Shizune blushed and hid her face behind Tonton causing Tsuande to chuckle.

"Lee where's the fire?" Questioned a voice as Lee and Hana raced towards the exit of Konoha. Entering the village were the Sand siblings who were there to see the new Hokage. Lee turned to see Temari waving him down.

"We are on a mission to protect a team that was sent out earlier," Lee answered. "Naruto and Shikamaru are leading a team against an unknown enemy."

"We will assist," Gaara said quickly as he turned to follow. Temari nodded and Kankuro groaned.


"Well this sucks," Naruto said as he looked around the giant dome. Neji, Choji, Kiba, Shikamaru and Naruto where currently stuck inside the dome looking at one another. They thought that a sneak attack might work but the fat one captured them. Naruto huffed as he looked around and his eyes glazed over. "I could just teleport us all out of here you know that?"

"Why bother," Shikamaru said as he looked around. "Just transport one of us out and we can take care of him."

"I got this guy," Choji said as he stepped forward. Naruto smirked and grabbed his shoulder.

"This should be a good snack," Mumbled Jirobo as he kept his hands in the rock dome. He didn't expect to feel the crushing pain of a Meat Tank. Choji's attack struck home and crushed Jirobo into his own dome and then slowly pushed him through the dome causing it to explode and a shower of rock and dirt.

"Nice one Choji!" Kiba yelled out as he jumped to the panting teens side. Jirobo was slowly picking himself out of the dirt and turned an evil glare towards the boy.

"Let's take him out!" Naruto yelled as he jumped to the other side of Choji.

"No," Shikamaru said as he turned towards the blond. "He will slow us down, we have to move or else the trail to Sasuke will get cold."

"I will stay," Choji said as he stepped forward. "I can finish this off while you guys catch the traitor."

"You sure Choji?" Kiba asked as he gave him a look. Choji nodded and gave everyone the nice guy pose.

"Get going," Choji said as Jirobo started to charge them. They nodded and took off. "Now let's dance!"

"You don't stand a chance!" Jirobo said as he closed the distance. Choji reached into his pocket and pulled out his fall back. The three colored pills. He popped the first one in his mouth and smirked at the boost of power.

Choji charged forward and the two struck in the middle of the clearing causing a large burst of energy to emit between them. Choji struggled at first but then slammed his foot down releasing more energy. New found power, Choji tossed Jirobo over his shoulder and slammed him into the ground. Choji knew here and now that this battle would be his hardest of his life when he was suddenly struck with extreme pain from the pill course throughout his body.


"You sure he can take him?" Kiba asked as they followed Akamaru. Shikamaru sighed as he chanced a glance behind him.

"Choji is the strongest brute force wise," Neji said softly taking the words from Shikamaru. "He is fighting an opponent that is also based on brute force. It will be a grudge match between two bulls. Let's have faith that our bull will remain champion."

"Neji's right," Shikamaru said as they kept pace, even though his face had a grim look. "We need to focus on our objective."

"Sasuke!" Naruto hissed out. "How can he just turn on us like this?"

"Tell me about it," Kiba said he sniffed the air. "The bastard was my team mate."

"Four figures ahead," Neji said as he held up his hand. "They seem to be resting. Sasuke is laying in some sort of container that's pushing chakra through his eyes."

"What do you mean?" Shikamaru asked with a whisper.

"Exactly what I said," Neji said. "He seems to be absorbing mass amounts of a black chakra through his eyes. It's changing the chakra in his system from blue to a dark purple slowly."

"What exactly does that mean?" Naruto asked.

"Well let's not wait and find out," Shikamaru said as he henged himself into Jirobo. "Don't let them kill me alright guys."

"Good luck," Kiba said as they took positions and Shikamaru jumped out towards the group. The three looked up at the approaching Jirobo. The only girl in the group, stared down at him before launching a series of Kunai at him.

"What the hell?" Shikamaru yelled out.

"We know you're not Jirobo!" Yelled the red head as she pulled out another Kunai. "Now show yourself."

"Troublesome women," Shikamaru said as he released his henge. The girl smirked down at him with a predatory smile.

"Mine!" She claimed. "I get to keep!"

"Shut up Tayuya," said the leader of the group. "You can kill him later. Where are your friends?"

"I was the only one to escape," Shikamaru lied with no hint of emotion. "Now hand over Sasuke and you can leave with your life."

"Oh the balls on this bitch!" Tayuya said with a grin as she slowly licked a kunai. "I really like him."

"Keep your pants on Tayuya," Said the one with four arms causing her to scuff. "Besides he isn't even on my level."

"He might not be but know I am!" Said a voice. The three turned to see the orange clad blond who smirked at them. "BOOM!"

The explosion launched the three of them apart. The barrel that held Sasuke fell next to the girl with red hair causing her to sigh.

"Tayuya!" Screamed the leader as he dusted himself off. "Get the package to the border, we shall hold them off!"

Tayuya took off with the barrel at a break neck speed shocking everyone. Shikamaru looked at the situation as the enemy smirked down at them. They were above their level and knowing that them slowing their group down any, would mean that the mission would be an automatic fail. Shikamaru ran through two hundred different situations in his head and everyone lead to Sasuke escaping. He felt a hand on his shoulder and turned to see Kiba with a smirk.

"We got this," He said as Neji nodded. "This should be fun!"

"Get the bastard back to Konoha," Neji said as he took off after the boy with four arms. Kiba smirked as he went after the last one.


"I don't like this Shikamaru!" Naruto said as they raced forwards. "Leaving everyone behind like this isn't smart!"

"And you think this is any easier on me?" Shikamaru asked as they raced towards a clearing in the forest. In the middle of the field a couple hundred meters away was the a tall figure standing next to the red head.

"If you want to live after such a failure you will return with all five head bands of these Konoha nin!" Yelled the tall figure as he back handed the girl to the ground. She was visibly shaking under his glare and nodded quickly.

"Y-yes Kimimaro-san," She whispered out holding her check. She turned at the sound of approaching feet. She looked up in shock as the two nin stopped before the two of them.

"I agree she's troublesome," Said Shikamaru with a slight smirk. "But hitting a woman is just wrong..."

"Who are you?" Asked Kimimaro as he stared down the man. "So that when I kill you, Lord Orochimaru knows what to scribe on your gravestone."

"Sooo dramatic," Naruto said as he stuffed his hands in his pockets. "Just hand over the box and everything will be alright."

"Tayuya!" Snapped the man as he turned his attention to the girl who was staring at the two Konoha in a mixuture of aw and fear. "Kill them!"

"Yes Kimimaru-san," She said as she slowly stood and assumed a stance. Kimimaru picked up the box and slowly turned to take off.

"Seems like such a lovely guy," Naruto said as he crossed his arms over his chest and stared past the girl in front of him.

"Follow him Naruto," Shikamaru said as he stared down the red head. "I will take care of her."

"Don't take me lightly!" Yelled the red head as she took out a flute. "And if you think I will let you get by me you have another…. Where'd he go?"

"He's already in front of your buddy over there," Shikamaru pointed to the fighting teens causing Tayuya's eyes to widen a bit. "He might look at this as another failure on your part."

"Shut up!" She snapped with a bit of fear in her eyes. "You don't know what will happen if I don't kill you all!"

"Let me guess," Shikamaru said as he dodge an attack from the women. He smirked as he retreated towards the safety of the trees with her following. "The snake pedo will kill you?"

"If he was only so kind," She whispered back. Shikamaru tossed a series of Kunai towards the girl which she dodged.

"So why go back then?" Shikamaru asked as he hid behind a tree. Tayuya looked perplex for a moment and then shook her head.

"You dumbass!" She said with almost a chuckle. "You can't just turn on Orochimaru! I bear the curse mark."

"And?" Shikamaru asked as he walked out and leaned against the tree. She stared at him shaking with rage. "Anko-sensei has one as well."

"Stop trying to distract me with false hopes," She yelled out as she summoned three giant figures. One had a giant club and was dark in color. The lighter one had huge spikes on his arms while the last one was completely wrapped like a mummy except his head and legs. Tayuya took her flute and pressed it to her mouth. "These are my Doki! I hope you're ready to play!"

"I'm not trying to distract you," Shikamaru said as the one with the club charged forward. Shikamaru jumped back just in time, as the giant club smashed the tree to splinters moments later. Shikamaru looked at the sheer power of the creature and shook his head. 'Troublesome'.

Tayuya continued to play her flute causing each creature to attack Shikamaru at different times. He was dodging as best he could, all the while putting a plan in his head. He took out a series of kunai and attached his exploding notes to each one. He tossed a series of kunai striking pivotal points and smirked as he stood up straight. The three Doki summons where charging towards him and he gave a slight grin. He detonated the tags causing a giant flash of light and fire. He flipped through his hand signs and smirked.

"Success," He said with a smirk as he looked at the damage done. He destroyed most of the trees leaving just his and the one Tayuya was standing on. The three Doki where staring at their former master with their hands on their knees. Tayuya tried to play a note for them to attack but nothing happened.

"What did you do?" She demanded.

"Listen," Shikamaru said as he stood straight and the Doki mirrored his actions. "I want to help you. Now you can come quietly or I can force you to come!"

"Konoha will just kill me after they torture me for hours," She yelled back with a tear slowly falling from her eye. Shikamaru just sighed. "So you will have to drag me back if you think I'm going anywhere near that place."

"Fine then!" Shikamaru said as he jumped forward raising his right hand. The Doki with the club raised his hand as well and was about to strike down Tayuya, when she dismissed her Doki. Shikamaru counting smirked as he landed a foot away. Tayuya tried to strike him but he caught her fist and swept her legs out from under her. She landed roughly on her back causing her scream out in pain. Shikamaru's shadow connected with hers and she froze. He smirked as he sat down across from her and let out a content sigh. He pulled out a piece of paper and placed it on her forehead causing her to feel a draining sensation. Suppression seal used in the transportation of prisoners. Shinkamaru always had a few on him in case of these situations.

"What did you do to me?" She yelled as she felt all her chakra slowly disappear. She was becoming increasingly tired.

"I'm taking you back to Konoha," He said as he stared down at the girls eyes. She was beyond angry at being beaten by this lazy ass but her eyes were giving off an emotion she thought she never would feel again. Fear.

"Promise me they won't kill me," She whispered out slowly as tears fell from her eyes.

"I will say you came willingly," He said as he picked her up in his arms bridal style. She turned her head into his chest and sighed. She never shown any sort of weakness before and now, here in this boys arms she felt completely helpless…yet she couldn't fight the feeling of being safe. She looked up at the boy and smirked.

"Shikamaru!" Yelled a voice from behind. Tayuya raised an eyebrow at this and looked over his shoulder. There standing was Temari of the Sand, and she seemed pissed. Tayuya looked from Temari to Shikamaru and smirked. "What the hell are you doing?"

"I'm taking this prisoner in for questioning," Shikamaru said as he turned to face the Blond who stared at Tayuya, leaking killer intent. "Why are you here?"

"Why am i…"She started but stopped and calmed herself down. "I'm here to rescue you!"

"Well," Shikamaru said as he picked his words carefully. "I thank you for the help. I have to get her back to an outpost quickly, Naruto might need my help."

"Lee and Gaara are helping him," Temari said as Shikamaru sighed in relief. "We have orders to return all survivors to Konoha."

"Is everyone ok?" Shikamaru asked as adjusted Tayuya in his arms, to her pleasure but Temari's disgust. Temari watched Tayuya grin at her as she slowly slipped her arms around Shikamaru's neck and snuggled in closer to his chest. Shikamaru, for the first time in his life oblivious to what was happening around him, waited for the answer as Temari sat there fuming. "Temari!"

"WHAT?" She yelled back. "Oh no, Choji was found in critical condition and was rushed to the hospital. Neji was also in a life threating position and was found in time for us to resupply him with some blood pills. Kiba has a few bumps and should be fine after some minor healing."

"Shit," Shikamaru said as he lowered his head a bit. "Let's get back. I hope Naruto will be fine with Lee and Gaara's help."

"Shika-kun," Tayuya said softly as she passed out in his arms. The seal absorbed the last of her chakra putting her into a coma like stasis. Shikamaru turned his head with a raised eyebrow, towards Temari who was mumbling about killing something.

"AND YOU DON'T HAVE TO HOLD HER LIKE THAT!" She yelled out of now where as they raced through the forest. Shikamaru just sighed as he mumbled his trusted catch phrase.


"You are quick, I will give you that," Kimimaru said as he dodged another punch from Naruto. Naruto just smirked back as he exploded launching Kimimaru aside causing the box he was caring slide a feet away. Kimimaru looked down at the blond with a confused look.

"Just give me Sasuke and you can go about your way," Naruto said as he took out his book and flipped a page. Kimimaru tilted his head and gave him a questioning look.

"What are you doing?" He asked. Naruto gave him a funny look and giggled.

"It's called reading," Naruto answered back. "Oh Naomi, you're so bad."

"Are you taking this seriously?" Kimimaru yelled. Naruto's answer was yet another perverted giggle. "Fine I will finish you quickly."

Kimimaru charged forward, a bone sword appearing in his hand, surprising the Blond. The speed was beyond his reaction time as the bone sword slid quickly through Naruto's chest. Kimimaru jumped back in time, as Naruto exploded again. Naruto tried to attack him from behind, but Kimimaru dodged the attack and kicked Naruto squarely in the chest. Naruto flew back and skidded to a halt in front of two green shoes.

"Seems like one could use some back up," Said the owner of the feet. Naruto looked up to see Lee standing there with a smirk. Lee held out a hand and Naruto took it and was pulled to his feet.

"Lee you're cleared from the hospital?" Naruto asked as he brushed off the dirt from his vest. Lee gave him a sly shrug and started to stretch. Naruto sighed knowing that he wasn't cleared yet. "Better hope Sakura doesn't find out, or you'll be put back in for good."

"She worries too much," Lee said with a smirk. "Now what do we have here?"

"Bone bitch?" Naruto asked, as Kimimaru flinched at the insult. "He's fast that's for sure, great at hand to hand and can create swords from his bones. Looks like a blood line. Weakness…unknown so far."

"Sounds like a good warm up," Lee said as he assumed his stance next to Naruto. Naruto fell into his stance as well. At that moment there was a slow hiss and the box slowly opened. Steam was erupting from the box and Sasuke slowly stood chuckling madly.

"I see crazy is awake," Naruto said as he looked at Sasuke. His skin was paler than usual and he almost seemed to be glowing in a dark purple. His eyes where already activated but instead of the famous red they were a deep purple and had three tomes in each eye. "Enough playing around Sasuke! Let's head back to Konoha!"

"You fool!" Sasuke yelled as he stepped out of the box laughing loudly. Lee and Naruto shared a look before they went to grab Sasuke. Sasuke jumped back and Kimimaru appeared kicking both of them away.

"Sasuske-san," Kimimaru said as he assumed his stance between Sasuke and Naruto. "Head towards the border, we have someone waiting to meet you there."

"Sasuke don't!" Naruto yelled as he picked himself back up.

"Idiot!" Sasuke said as he turned. "Just try and stop me!"

"Fine," Naruto said as his eyes glazed over. Sasuke took off towards the border. "Lee I need a favor."

"Say no more Naruto," Lee said as he charged the bone wielding man. Naruto sighed as he narrowed his eyes on the retreating figure and disappeared. Kimimaru turned to stop Naruto, but Lee appeared in front of him with a serious look in his eyes.

"Please," Lee said as he assumed his stance. "Don't ignore me. Your fight is with me."

"Confident are we?" Kimimaru asked as he pulled out a bone blade.

Lee smirked as he charged forward. Kimimaru just dodged his direct attacks for a few moments before he felt a sharp pain from behind him. Lee somehow found a way through his defense and landed a blow. Normal blows have little to no effect on him due to his bone density and pain threshold. But that blow, gave Kimimaru a feeling he hasn't felt in some time. Pain. Lee smirked as he charged forward again.

"You're fast," Kimimaru said as he picked himself up and assumed his stance. "But too direct."

Lee and Kimimaru flew into a blur of punches and slashes. Each blocking and trading blow for blow. Kimimaru seeing that this fight was a stalemate activated his cursed seal to stage one. Kimimaru grinned as he noticed that he now had the advantage as he quickly slashed across Lee's chest cutting him. Lee jumped back and stood to his full height and smirked at Kimimaru.

"This is a truly youthful match!" Lee said as blood slowly poured down his bare chest. "But it seems that it's time to take my medicine. Please hold on for one second."

Lee reached into his hip pouch and pulled out the bottle that Guy gave him. He said to only use it on life and death occasions. Lee smirked as he slowly pulled the cork off the bottle and proceeded to drink the entire bottle. Lee coughed a bit and tossed the bottle aside and took up his stance. Kimimaru looked at his opponent as his face redden and he swayed from side to side.

"Are you drunk?" Kimimaru asked as he looked at Lee. Lee spun on his heel and fell back to the floor. Kimimaru approached the sleeping teen and raised his sword. "Truly sad, you were a worthy opponent."

"Youss fell forss its," Lee slurred as he bounced to his feet and struck Kimimaru in the chest with a bone shattering fist. Kimimaru's eyes widen as he was launched off his feet and flew straight back. Lee appeared behind him and delivered a swift kick which launched him straight into the air. Lee looked around in circles. "Hey! Where'dsss yasss go?"

Kimimaru landed a few feet away with a groan. Kimimaru's eyes narrowed as he looked at Lee, shocked at the sudden change. He slowly pulled himself out of the small crater and turned to Lee who was charging at him. Kimimaru was launched into a volley of strikes that were coming at different angles which was completely different from the other stance he was fighting. This stance was beyond difficult to keep up with. A swift kick picked him off his feet again and he was launched into forward from another strike to the chest. Kimimaru didn't expect to be caught by a wall of sand that suddenly appeared.

"Sand coffin," Said a clam voice that appeared. Kimimaru was completely engulfed with sand the pressure was beyond belief. Kimimaru's eyes widen as he felt the sand slowly wear away his defense and soon he blacked out from the pain. Gaara finished the job and sprayed his bloody sand over the area in a mist of red.

"Hey Panda man!" Lee said with a drunken smirk. Gaara sighed as he looked away from his sand to see Lee waving at him.


"Sasuke!" Naruto yelled as they stared each other down in the Valley of the End. "You have twice now defied a direct order from a superior ninja, and have betrayed Konoha. Your punishment is awaiting you back home!"

"You superior to me?" Laughed Sasuke as his eyes slowly spun. "I'm better in every way!"

"What did they do to you?" Naruto asked as Sasuke and him slowly circled one another.

"They gave me power!" Sasuke said with a smirk.

"A curse seal?" Asked Naruto.

"No that will be my payment once I reach Orochimaru," Sasuke said with a evil smirk. "Then I will be unstoppable. This is a prototype. They inject a mix of chakra they've gathered, directly into my system giving me a boost of chakra and power preeminently."

"That isn't how you should get stronger!" Naruto yelled back. "You need to train your body so that you can handle the power load. As of now you won't be able to even use it to it's full potential because your body is still too weak!"

"Shut up you bastard!" Sasuke seethed. "You don't know anything!"

"Fine then," Naruto said as he was playing right into his trap. "Prove me wrong!"

Sasuke charged forward only for Naruto to explode in a flash of light. The flash bang clone did the job as Sasuke's eyes where shut and his ears where bleeding slightly. Naruto appeared above him with a smirk as he dropped three clones towards him. They each exploded and launched Sasuke over the cliff and into the river below. Naruto followed him and landed on the river as he watched Sasuke slowly pull himself up. Naruto was panting a bit from the excessive use of clones, but he wouldn't show it.

"You think you're so strong," Sasuke said as blood slowly fell from his for head. "I will KILL YOU!"

"Soooo Emo," Naruto said back as he pulled out his book. Sauske's eyes flashed in anger as watched the blond slowly flip a page. After a minute to catch his breath and a perverted giggle Naruto looked back up at Sasuke who was glaring at the blond. "Now I say we do this the easy way and bring your crying ass back home. How does that sound."

"Over my dead body!" Sasuke said as he pulled out a Kuni. Naruto snapped his book shut and gave him a foxy grin.

"Oh I was hoping you would say that," Naruto said as the water under Sasuke started to bubble. Then an explosion of fire erupted. Sasuke was launched high into the air from the massive attack. Naruto 'Bamfed' towards him, but Sasuke was already launching a fire ball towards the blond. Naruto's eyes spun to life and the fire hit the silver portal and just as quickly appeared behind Sasuke. Sasuke was hit square in his back by his own attack launching him into the waiting arms of Naruto who wrapped his arms around him tightly causing Sauske to wince.

"Just so you remember Sasuke," Naruto's voice said from behind him. "Bitch I'm the bomb, like Tick tick…"
The clone exploded sending Sasuke's broken body towards the water at break neck speed. Before the smoldering body hit the water a figure broke out of the woods and caught it. He quickly doused Sasuke in the river before turning to Naruto. Kabuto sighed as he stared at the blond who was assuming his stance.

"Know this" Kabuto said slowly as he was sinking into the ground. "We have something very special for you, Naruto-kun. Say hello to Orochimaru's newest Experiment. Please come out now Thane."

Naruto turned his attention to the figure that was standing across from him in the river. Naruto was a bit baffled at first, because he didn't even sense the man. Naruto stared at the man who stood before him. His bald head was pale and littered with several surgical scars. His eyes where two different colors, one was brown and the other was completely black. He was tall, around six four with slim body. He was wearing a white lab coat over a skin tight black t-shirt and matching pants. His Lab coat had the sleeves ripped off exposing his ripped arms that were also littered with several scars. His eagerly twitching hands had elongated finger nails which looked razor sharp. The figure stared down at Naruto and flashed a quick grin. His teeth looked to be sharpened into points.

"I've been waiting to feast upon your flesh Uzumaki!" Thane said with a smirk. His voice was low and hiss like. He took a step forward slowly leaking killer intent. Naruto gulped, for the first time in a long time, he felt scared.

"What is it with everyone wanting to eat me?" Naruto asked gaining a bit of his confidence. Thane continued his steps towards the blond. Naruto's eyes glazed over and he noticed Thane's black eye swirl to life as well. It looked like a pool of oil as it moved with no since of direction.

"I assure you," Thane said with a hissing voice. "That I will follow through with my promise."

Naruto 'Bamfed' behind him only to be surprised that Thane's smiling face was inches away from his own. Naruto jumped back as a claw ripped through his vest, tearing it to pieces. Naruto's only thought was, fast. Naruto jumped back again as Thane pressed his advantage. Naruto 'Bamfed' away and looked down at his chest. He had four cuts running across his chest and his new vest was already ruined. Naruto looked up at the man as he slowly turned with a sadistic grin. He slowly licked his fingers savoring his first taste. Naruto gulped and pulled off the vest and tossed it aside.

"You taste," Thane started as he finished licking his finger. His eyes widen as he stared at the Blond. "Amazing! Sooo sweet and innocent! I must have more! MORE!"

"You want more!" Naruto yelled out as he felt the fox come to life inside of him.

"Brat," The Fox said as his Chakra slowly leaked through his cage. Naruto had a grin on his face as his whisker marks darkened. "This monster is an abomination of this world and an insult to us demons! WIPE HIS EXISTENCE FROM THIS WORLD!"

"With pleasure," Naruto said back the Demon king who wore a matching grin. Power surged through his body and he was encased in a red cloak. Thane was shaking with excitement as he watched Naruto's power rise. Naruto's face darkened and he slowly locked eyes with Thane. "NOW COME AND GET SOME BITCH!"
