The Fight

The ring was about 10 feet across making it just big enough for two combatants to have room to fight. In the honored seats sat Hiashi, Hinata, Tsunade and Takeo's father and mother. In the ring were Naruto and Takeo.

Tsunade stood and declared, "This fight is for the hand in marriage of Hinata Hyūga. The fight will continue until one of you is dead or quits. BEGIN!"

Naruto and Takeo stood facing each other.

"Why are you doing this!" asked Naruto, "You've never given even the smallest hint of even liking Hinata. You were even one of the bullies I protected her from when we were kids. You could have refused the challenge, and yet you have knowing placed yourself in the situation where I may have to kill you.

"You don't get it do you?" said Takeo, "The Hyūga are the wealthiest family in Konoha. Marrying Hinata is the way to that wealth. Besides I don't think you will kill me. True you can kill me but you don't want to. Well you have two choices quit or kill me."

"You are a fool then," responded Naruto, "If the choice is to quit or kill you, then I'll kill you."

"I don't believe it," said Takeo, "It's not like you."

"I've killed before," said Naruto, "and guys that could have turned you into a blood stain without breaking a sweat."

"They were enemies of Konoha," responded Takeo, "It's not like you to kill a loyal resident of Konoha."

"In defense of my friends you bet I would," said Naruto, "For Hinata I'd kill Tsunade herself if I had too."

With that Naruto and Takeo headed for each other fists ready for action. Naruto landed his fist solidly in Takeo's face while blocking Takeo fist with his other hand.

"Try this on for size," said Takeo doing a double shadow clone.

"Cone on," said Naruto, "Is that the best you can do?"

Naruto then produced 20 shadow clones almost filling ring. Naruto's shadow clones made short work of Takeo and gave him a bit of a pummeling before being recalled.

Naruto stood there with so much as a drop of sweat on him looking at a bruised and bleeding Takeo.

"I could have killed you right then and there," said Naruto, "But I want to give you another chance to quit."

"I knew you didn't have the nerve to finish the job," responded Takeo. "The only way you'll avoid killing me is to quit and I know you won't kill me."

"That does it," declared Naruto, "I did not want to resort to this but now your going to see what you are really up against."

"Give me your worst," declared Takeo, "No matter what tricks you have up you sleeve, you won't kill me and you will have to quit to keep from doing so."

Naruto then powered up with the nine tails' chakra acquiring what looked like a yellow flame around him.

Takeo had never seen Naruto like this before and he was starting to get nervous.

Meanwhile Hinata started clapping having not only seen Naruto powered up with the nine tails' chakra before but she had seen some of what he could do with it. This told Hinata that Naruto was getting serious.

Sakura though much further back applauded as well realizing that this fight was about to get interesting. Tsunade held back her own excitement just showing a smile at the realization that Naruto was not going to keep this going much longer.

Naruto powered up a Rasengan to about the size of a basket ball and started towards Takeo who was getting more nervous with each step.

Naruto got right up to Takeo and used the nine tails' chakra to pull Takeo's legs out from underneath him and then pinned him to the ground with the Rasengan just millimeters from Takeo's nose.

"I am going to give you to the count of ten to quit" declared Naruto, "Or I am pushing this Rasengan right through your head. No joke, no games, just a choice you quit or at the count of ten you die.
