Author's note: Yea, haven't updated for a while..It's all because of the week long unit tests and projects!NO! anyway, here's the chapter. XD
Midori's POV
I watched as Kisame walked towards me ever so confidently with a smug smirk plastered on his sharky face that I almost want to rip it off his blue face. I looked at Pein who nodded at us as a signal to start. I smirked and dashed towards Kisame while doing various hand seals.
"Fire release: Gigantic fireball!" I felt chakra surge towards my lungs and a huge fireball thrice my size shot out of my mouth like a flaming meteor.
I watched as the fireball went straight for Kisame, but my eyebrows furrowed in confusion as I saw that he didn't show any intention to dodge it, but stupid me because I paid no mind in it. As it hit the ground next to him, I squinted my eyes to see through the fog and rubble that had gathered and smiled to myself as I saw no sign of movements.
Well, that was an easy win. I thought triumphantly.
Then my eyes widened. My jaw dropped in shock. There he was, standing in the middle of it all. But something is wrong. The flames is somehow decreasing. As if the very core of it's energy is being sucked towards him. No, not him. But..
His..sword..Did he just absorb my chakra using his sword?! He turned to me and smirked as he saw my reaction. He walked towards me casually as he took out his sword and I saw that he already removed the bandages restraining his weapon. I hesitantly took a good look at it and realized something.
Why does his sword looks like a..shark?! I had a feeling that I already saw it. Somewhere! Ah! It has been when- My thoughts had been cut off when I sensed Kisame's humongous chakra dashing towards me as he swung his shark like sword towards me.
Why is his chakra reserves that high?!
I quickly pulled out a kunai and blocked the hit sluggishly. But the force made me slide a few meters. I quickly jumped away and looked at my arms that is bleeding slighly. I looked at it in shock. I managed to block it right? Then why is it-
Then I heard a scraping sound and looked up to see Kisame walking towards me, dragging his sword with him. And I noticed that his sword is making scrape marks, or rather scraping the floor beneath him. I narrowed my eyes.
Ah, I see. So his sword is somehow shaving everything around it huh. Even chakra itself. I thought as I jumped back in time as Kisame tried to hit me again with his sword. Then all I need to do is avoid it right? I smirked as I jumped away again thinking a plan to defeat Tuna-head.
Kisame cocked his head to the side to face me. "What? Gonna run away forever?" I glared at him. "Or are you scared of my Samehada?" He stroked his sword which gave a growling noise. My body tensed. Samehada? Where did I hear that name before?.
Then my eyes widened in recognition. "You're...Hoshigaki Kisame, The tailless tailed beast aren't you? Wielder of the chakra absorbing sword, Samehada."
He smirked at me and a gleam of amusement sparked in his beady black eyes. "So, you have heard of me,huh? My, how flattering."
I glared at him. "Shut up. I encountered you once in my early days at ANBU. And I'll defeat you no matter what." He just laughed at me.
"Oh, how so? You think you have a chance on Samehada? You can't even hit me! Just give up!" He said while gesturing to his sword.
He's right. I thought angrily. I cannot hit him, unless...
I gritted my teeth. "Hmmph. What a huge amount of ego coming from a raw piece of sashimi. Then I'll use Taijutsu and Kenjutsu. Fish." He stared at me like I'm an alien from space and let out a howling roar of laughter.
"Taijutsu?...This..This is a Ninjutsu match..BRAT!" He said within gasps. "You only need to use Ninjutsu! And I'll absorb EVERY. OUNCE. OF. YOUR. CHAKRA." He said while licking his parched lips.
I growled in frustation. He's right. It's impossible. No! Nothing is impossible. I need to do something. ANYTHING!.
Because of my frustation, I scooped down a rock from beneath my feet and infused it with my chakra. I clenched my teeth and threw it at him with all my might. He just stared at the rock with a smug grin on his face.
"You think that will-" But before he finished, the rock hit him on the face. I looked at it in surprise. The chakra reached him. I smirked.
So that was the trick, Earth jutsus. I thought as a plan came to mind. I just need to make him lose his grip on Samehada.
He turned to me, anger evident on his face as it turned from blue to purple. He swung his sword towards me and I quickly made hand seals. "Earth style: Mud wall!" A huge wall of earth blocked the attack, and I jumped upwards to do the second part of my plan. I did hand more hand seals.
"Earth Style: Mud pits!" Numerous part of the arena, including the ground Kisame was standing on, became bubbling pits of mud. I landed on the ground with a soft thump and did another round of handsigns.
I smiled at Kisame coldly. "This is going to hurt a bit."
" Earth release: Rock slide!" Before Kisame could even dodge, he was buried in a 10 feet deep pile of earth,rubble, rocks, and dust. As I watched the smoke clear, I saw Kisame trying to get out of the rubble in vain while glaring daggers at me. I quickly searched for his sword and after a while, I spotted Samehada lying on a corner.
I quickly approached it and picked it up ruefully as the shark like sword growled at me. Cool. Who knew swords can growl? I quickly threw it to a random mud pit and watched it as it slowly sunk to the bottom. I glanced at Kisame in distaste as he shoved the rocks off of him.
He glared at me. "How rude. Stealing other people's swords."
I scoffed at him. "That's rich coming from you, Sashimi-san. If you can even call yourself a person." He let out a growl and did various hand seals.
"Water Release: Great Shark Bullet technique!" Then a huge surge of water in the shape of a shark went rushing towards me. I did a single handsign lazily.
"Earth release: Barrier" A barrier of earth sprung in front of me and absorbed the attack he just used. I smirked at him. "Who's laughing now, huh?"
He did more handsigns. "Water release: Rain water shark wave!" I raised my hands in front of me. "Earth release: Earthly cave!"
A huge amount of earth surrounded me like a cave, completely blocking Kisame's water based attacks. After my earth seeped his water, I lowered my hands and the earth slowly shrunk to the ground, leaving a pile of rubble beneath me.
I smiled at him."Look around you, Hoshigaki-san." He did as I told him so. I looked at him mockingly."What do you see? Earth. Yes, Earth. Earth is water's weakness." He glared at me with his little beady eyes. Awww. "And because of that...This arena became my territory!"
I quickly did handsigns and pointed my arms at Kisame. "Earth release: Earth hounds!" (Personally, I think it will sound better if I make the attacks Japanese and just put translations right? Review your desicions!) The ground beneath me bubbled and rose. Then three figures rose out of nowhere and started to mold the shape of demonic hounds. I saw Pein look at me interestedly. Probably because he haven't seen this kind of jutsu yet.
I smiled at my hounds sadistically. Yea, this is what fighting makes me become. Oh, the excitement. I thought rather sarcastically.
I raised my hands above my head. "Attack, my hounds!" They leapt into the air anticipatingly and attacked Kisame. Kisame, on the other hand, attacked them with a water jutsu. But so far, the only damage it did was to make the hounds muddy. He repeated this attack over and over again as my hounds attacked him randomly as I watched in interest in the side.
How stupid. I thought. He would never learn, would he? Then my eyes widened in shock as he managed to melt my hounds into bubbling pools of mud.
He smirked at me sadistically. "Yea, you're right. Mud and Earth may be all around me. But with mud, there's always water!" He attacked me with a huge wave of water he extracted from a nearby mud pit which I blocked with a huge wall of earth.
I smiled at him."You're right. Thanks for the tip." I spread my arms out wide. "Harden! Water shall not exist in thee!" The mud pits around me crinkled and hardened as water disappeared from them. I smirked at Sushi-san.
"Smart move, Fish." I chuckled at his stupidity. "Announcing your advantage?! Really?!"
He glared at me. "Those hounds..Living jutsu? Impressive. Never thought a little girl like you would master that. Nice hounds by the way."
My eyes twitched. "Are you insulting my height?! Your just too tall!."
I did hand seals and suppressed chakra in my lungs. "Fire Release: Great Fireball!" I felt chakra surge towards my throat and a huge fireball shot out of my mouth and made it's way towards Kisame, but he managed to make a bubble of water to protect himself. The fireball quickly dissipated once it touched the water's surface. I smirked to myself. This is my chance.
I threw Shurikens and Kunais to his water bubble and quickly did hand seals. "I just want to remind you sushi..." I dashed towards him. "I have more than one Kekkei Genkai!"
"Lightning release: Electric Lance!" A huge electric shock went it's way towards Kisame's 'liitle bubble'. Kisame quickly tried to dispel his jutsu but it was too late. The attack reached him and electricity surged towards his body. I chuckled lightly as I saw his jutsu dispel and he fell to the ground, unconscious.
I felt myself getting light headed so I quickly downed the chakra pill Konan gave me and I felt my body replenish it's used up chakra while I saw Konan struggling to drag Kisame out of the room. Pein stared at me, his eyes boring holes.
"I expect you to return the sword belonging to one of my strong men." I quickly nodded and did a few hand seals to retrieve Kisame's sword buried deep within the ground and handed it to Pein.
He nodded at me as a signal to go on and I chuckled bittery as I wagged my finger towards the only opponent left for me to battle.
"Your turn. WEASEL."
