A/N: Gohan and Naruto will clash in this chapter. Since Naruto's Shinra Tensei knocked out the most wimpy fighters, the rest of the matches will be kind more exciting.
Thanks for R&R. I know today's note was pretty short, but I kind of lost in thoughts. So all I can do now is present you guys this chapter
The arena was awfully quite after Naruto unleashed Shinra Tensei. Goku and the other fighters gaped in shock, when they saw that lots of fighters were removed by that technique. But the most shocked were none other than U10, because all of their fighters were instantly removed by Naruto's technique. U2 were not that better, they have only 4 warriors left. Maji Kayo, Paparoni, The Preecho were eliminated from U3. U4 had only Ganos and 2 dogs. Botamo from U6 were eliminated due to his sloppiness.
"Impossible! He eliminated more than half of fighters by that move" exclaimed Piccolo in shock, the cold sweat dropped from his temple.
"W-what kind of monster is that blond?" stuttered Krilin, his body were shaken horribly in fright.
"Yohoho! But didn't he just made the tournament much better by eliminating those weaklings" Frieza laughed hauntily with his evil smirk.
"That boy is a real threat! He may not be as powerful as that Jiren guy, but his techniques were far more dangerous" comment Master Roshi seriously. As an experience fighter, he knew that right now all other universe must focusing on eliminating this Naruto guy ASAP.
"I agree, Master Roshi! Let's combine our strength to defeat him" suggested Tien.
"Well, he is a nuisance, so sooner or later we must defeat him" replied #17 casually.
"So what? Are we gonna ganging him up?" questioned #18.
Vegeta didn't said anything, but he was gritting his teeth in frustration. Only Gohan didn't do anything, just staring at Naruto with determined eyes as if wanting to prove something. Being his father and Saiyan, Goku could clearly saw what Gohan wanted.
"Go! Gohan!" cheered Goku with a knowing grin.
"Father…" Gohan turned to his father surprised, then nodded his head.
Slowly walking, step by step, Gohan was approaching the nemesis of this tournament, Uzumaki Naruto.
With Zeno
Both Zenos were excite about the fights, but they feel more excitement when they erased a Universe. First was U9, then followed the U10.
"Woah! That was so awesome! Naruto, like, bwahh! And all the fighters were sent flying!" exclaimed the Present Zeno.
"I know right! So exciting! So awesome!" added the Future Zeno.
"A move used to test who were the weakest fighters, huh? Not a bad move, Naruto-san" The Great Priest muttered with a light grin. Zeno's right hand also pointed out something important. "Also due to U10 lost all fighters, like U9 they will be erased"
"Hai" chimed both Zenos simultaneously. Raising their hands they erased both Rumshii and Gowasu in a blink of eye. The laters didn't even had the time to beg.
Spectator's seat
"W-What the hell was that, Vados?" demanded Champa with his eyes still bulged in shock.
"One of Naruto-kun's techniques" replied Vados simply with a light smile.
"What kind of technique was that, that managed to blow half of the fighters?!" retorted Champa.
"Oh, originally this technique was used to erase his village, if I remember right" replied Vados, trying to recall correctly.
Finally, Champa was out of his shock and now grinning like mad. "The best! Naruto, you are truly the best! We can win this! WE CAN WIN!HAHAHA!"
Beerus felt nervous, even though none of his fighters were eliminated, but it just proved that the blond from the U6 were a greater threat than Jiren.
"Kuso! How the heck someone could have a technique of that magnitude?" Beerus asking himself.
"My sister surely just need to pick someone troublesome, ne?" interjected Whis jokingly.
"It's not a time for jokes, Whis! We must do something about that blond"
"Well, just leave everything to Goku-san. The boy is not that powerful truthfully, he has some unpleasant techniques. But he is nowhere near Goku-san or Vegeta-san in combat" commented Whis analytically.
Vados just twitched her lips a bit. Her brother and everyone has seen nothing yet. Right now, Naruto was fighting using his chakra, but when he will use his ki, it will be a completely different outcome.
Vados suddenly noticed that 1 of the fighter from U7 were approaching her blond. Things were about to take an interesting turn.
With U6
U6 only managed to escape Shinra Tensei due to Hit's Time-skip techniques. Though they lost Botamo
"W-what the heck was that? That blond bastard is crazy! He could wiped out us as well if not for Hit!" exclaimed Caulifla in anger.
"B-but Naruto managed to eliminate U10 with that technique. So he just speed things out for us! Though, I am still shock after what happened" stated Cabba wiping a sweat from his forehead
"Naruto has warned me using his clones. Even though we lost Botamo, the price was worthy" said Hit expressionless as ever.
Back to spectator's seat
Gods of Destructions from the remaining 3 Universes were not pleased.
"That boy maybe beautiful, but he is dangerous! Like a rose!" exclaimed Helles dramatically and took out a rose out of nowhere.
"I thought Beerus and his troops were the threat, who would have thought that Champa will have such a wild card" muttered Quitella in frustration.
"Hah! As long as we have Jiren, that boy is not a threat to us!" announced Belmod arrogantly. Khai, his Supreme Kai, nodded in agreement.
"Indeed, no mater what tricks he will use, he will never be able to defeat Jiren"
They also noticed that a fighter from U7 were approaching the blond. Something interesting was about to begin.
With U11
When Naruto has unleashed Shinra Tensei, Jiren didn't move to avoid it, but focusing on creating a ki wall to protect himself. The move managed to push him back a few feet. Jiren could admitted that the blond had some interesting moves, but so far he hadn't prove that he was worthy to be his opponent. Then he glanced at the Saiyan from U7 that Toppo told him. He might be stronger than the blond, but was still not on his level. So far Jiren saw that no one was worth his time.
"Tch, that blond may caused some trouble for other universes, but we have Jiren. That boy won't even be able to touch Jiren" stated Dyspo arrogantly.
"You are right! The moment Jiren joined this tournament, we have already won" agreed Toppo.
Jiren though stood silent between there conversations, observing the situation. His eye raised a bit when he saw a fighter from U7 approaching the blond.
With Naruto
Naruto stood silently observing the result of his technique. Clutching and unclutching his knucle, he felt that his chakra wasn't deplete that much, despite using a technique if that magnitude. That means his chakra pool has increased even more so. That blond couldn't help bit smiled a bit, maybe he could even become stronger in this tournament.
Suddenly feeling someone was approaching him, Naruto turned that way. It was a Saiyan from the U7. He looked pretty determined and he was pretty strong too.
Gohan stood a few feet away from the blond fighter of U6 with a determined look. After some minutes, he declared.
"I wish to challenge you to a duel, Uzumaki Naruto-san from U6!"
Naruto raised his eyebrow in wonder. "Oh? And why should I accept that challenge?"
Smirking, Gohan replied. "Well, you don't need to accept it… Cause I will force you to accept it!"
"I see" Naruto retort back with a curious grin.
Gohan changed to his fighting stance and waiting for Naruto to do the same, but the blond just stood there. 'Does he underestimate me?'
With a battle cry, Gohan charged at Naruto and unleashed a rain of punches at the blond. The blond using his Rinnegan, read all the punches and blocked them easily. Then Gohan unleashed his kick, but was avoided by the blond again. Gritting his teeth in frustration, Gohan charged and assaulted Naruto again. The result was the same as the blond read all his attacks, but this time kicked him to fly away.
Gohan recovered quickly and started to analyze his opponent. 'His attacks were not strong, but it seems he could read all my attacks! Then what about energy based attacks?'
With that in mind, Gohan powered up with a cry and prepared to shoot his ki attack. Putting both hands forward, the right overlapped the left, Gohan began to charged.
"Masenko! HA"
A golden energy blast headed straight to the blond. Naruto could feel the wind blew against his face. With a grin, Naruto countered.
"Chidori Eiso!" A long electric sword protruded out of the blond's knucle and split Masenko in two.
'So he can defends against energy based attacks. But how about this!' Gohan thought analytically. Son Goku's son began to charge Kame style's signature attack.
"Ka… Me … Ha… Me…"
Naruto watched as the Saiyan was about to unleash his second attack. This one was much stronger than the previous one, so Chidori Eiso was not an option here.
"HA!" With the final cry Gohan unleashed Kamehameha straight at the blond. Naruto narrowed his eyes and fold hand-signs with blurred speed. "Katon Goryuka no jutsu!". From Naruto's mouth a huge dragon head was unleashed, with a roar clashed with the blue energy stream. Their clash created a huge explosion.
When the smoke died down, Gohan and Naruto stared back at each other. Suddenly Gohan decided to ask Naruto something.
"Naruto-san, do you have somebody to protect?"
The blond was surprised at the Saiyan's unexpected question. "I had. But now I am the only inhabitant of my planet"
"I see" replied Gohan. "But you see, I still have many people to protect on our planet. My wife, my daughter, Bulma-san and many others. And that's why..". Gohan started to power up causing the ground to tremble around him. "I will become stronger to protect them! HAA!" With a final shout, Gohan transformed into a Super Saiyan.
Naruto was actually in awe. The transformation left lot's of impression to him. It was so flashy and full of power. And because of that, Gohan used that opportunity and sent him crashed hard at the boulder behind.
Cringingly, Naruto slowly stood up. "That was one hell of a punch! Then I will step up the game also!"
With that said, Naruto bend down and put his hands on the ground, and stood on four like an animal. Gohan was surprised a bit, but then widened his eyes in horror, when an orange chakra began to take a shape of a cloak. The cloak enveloped Naruto, making his hands and legs to claws, and creating nine tails waving behind.
"W-what are you?" stuttered Gohan in shock.
Naruto stared back at him with bloody eyes and replied. "When I was a child, a nine-tailed chakra fox was sealed inside me. Don't worry even though, I look like a mindless beast, I can control this power perfectly. It's time for my counterattack!"
The jinchuuriki leaped at Gohan with incredible speed, using his chakra limbs and began to pummel Gohan, forcing the later to defense against his attacks. But it seems except for the user, Kurama's chakra was still burned the others heavily. Gohan's arms were burnt just by blocking those attacks. But the Super Saiyan didn't stay at defense for long and began, to fire ki blasts at Naruto. The later instinctively deflected them all using his tails. To say the least the battlefield was a mess after their transformation.
Spectator's seat
The fight raised to a new level when both fighters used their transformation. To say that the Gods were shocked at Naruto's transformation was an understatement.
"To think that blond still has this transformation…" Beerus pinched his nose in wary.
"And it seems it is on equal round or even more than Super Saiyan" pointed out Whis.
"Naruto keeps surprising me more and more!" exclaimed Champa loudly in surprise. Vados only smiled back at him and replied.
"Yeah, that's what he does all the time. Besides that form is just the first version, there were still 4 others above it. As you can see, Champa-sama, Naruto-kun has yet to take an serious action in this tournament"
"If you say so, Vados" Champa retort back with a shrug, but deep inside he was incredibly happy. He may even win against Beerus this time!
Well, seeing such a feral transformation, left Heles with much more impression on the blond account.
"Oh~ that transformation was beautiful as well!" exclaimed Heles dramatically.
With Zeno-sama's
After seeing Gohan and Naruto transformed, both Zeno's pumped up even more.
"Oh! Look, Goku's son has transformed into a Super Saiyan!" exclaimed the Present Zeno in excitement.
"Woah! Naruto has also transformed!" retort the Future Zeno, then they both turned to the Great Priest to ask.
"What is this transformation called?"
Great Priest once again glanced at Vados, to imply that she should answered that question for him.
"It is called Jinchuuriki mode, Zeno-sama"
"Jinchuuriki mode, banzai!" criedout both Zeno simultaneously.
With Naruto and Gohan
Gohan was panting heavily. He couldn't launched any effective physical attacks and all his ki blasts were either dodged or deflected. Also it seems the blond, despite how he looked had much more stamina than him. He could try to use Kamehameha again, but the blond may once again countered it.
Landing on four, not far away from Gohan, Naruto stated in deep voice. "This is not all you got, right? As you see, if you continue to hold back your power, this fight would be finished very soon! Show me your true power, Son Gohan-san!"
Gohan narrowed his eyes at the blond's provocation. "Alright, I will hold nothing back anymore. Don't regret it!"
Gohan stood in a stance and with a cry began to power up. The ground began to tremble around him and the debris started to float. With a final cry, the electricity enveloped his body and the Super Saiyan aura became even more profound. Gohan had transformed into Super Saiyan 2. However he was not done, Gohan began to raise his power even further, this time changing his hair back to black. A white aura with mysterious dust covered his body.
Gohan has gone beyond Super Saiyan, evolving into his new form.
"This is my full power!" declared Gohan stared back at Naruto.
Now, that Gohan use this form, Naruto knew that version 1 or 2 won't be a match to him. But he was curious, how will he bypass the burnt effect of chakra cloak.
"Come!"
Gohan disappeared in a blur and pummeled Naruto to the ground with a single punch, shocking the blond with his speed and power. Further more, the white aura seems to defend Gohan against the negative effect of chakra cloak. Not giving Naruto the time to recover Gohan continued his assault. Naruto tried to get away using his chakra limbs, but Gohan crushed them all before the blond got a chance to use them.
Without worrying about the burnt effect of the Chakra cloak, Gohan dominated his opponent, not even left the slightest chance for the blond to counter. Naruto began to feel a bit irritated as all his moves were read and blocked. Gohan even avoided all his defensive jutsus.
Suddenly Gohan caught one of Naruto tails and tossed him above and preparing Kamehameha. Naruto saw that what the Saiyan intend to do, so he must took this fight a bit more serious than before. Switching to his Final Jinchuuriki mode, Naruto prepared to unleash his Rasenshuriken to meet Gohan's Kamehameha.
"Ka…Me…Ha…Me…HA!" Gohan unleashed his blast at Naruto above. With Gohan in his Ultimate form, his Kamehameha was 3 times stronger than when he is in Super Saiyan form.
"Futon, Rasenshuriken!" Naruto felt that even Oodama Rasengan won't be a match for Gohan's Kamehameha, so his other option was Rasenshuriken.
A twirling shuriken shape with a spiraling sphere attack met the blue stream. The result was a huge explosion, causing a strong gust of wind to blow against everyone.
Everybody has long since stopped fighting to observe the fight. Piccolo was proud of his student. Goku was smiling seeing his son doing a pretty good job against the blond. Vegeta was cautious though, he wondered why the blond didn't use those techniques he used earlier against Gohan. Well, pretty much all Earthlings were shocked at the devastating result of a fight. The Androids seemed indifferent and Frieza was curious about Naruto's transformation.
U6 felt much more relief having the blond was their ally. Hit himself won't admitted that, began he thought the blond was their final trump, even though there was that move. Cabba was happy, having a strong ally like that, maybe he should get closer to the blond. Caulifla though felt irritated knowing the blond's power dwarfed her own at the moment. Like hell, she will let it stay like that! She will surpass him in this tournament. Unknown to her, Caulifla had already viewed Naruto as her rival.
Jiren was actually curious about the blond now. He noticed one thing, that since the tournament has started the blond had yet to use ki, he was using some mixture energy with ki in it. He was looking forward when the blond will use his ki. Toppo was shocked inside after glancing at Jiren. As his long time friend, Toppo noticed that Jiren didn't take an interest in many things, being the strongest of his universe. So to see some anticipation and excitement in Jiren's eyes were practically very rare, no, up until now nonexistent. To think Jiren was curious about someone.
'Uzumaki Naruto, what are you?' those are Toppo thoughts about Naruto. Even someone as powerful as Son Goku couldn't stir the feeling of curiosity in Jiren. So what did the blond has in his sleeves?
Landing on the boulder, Naruto cancelled his Final Jinchuuriki and said. "You are very strong, Gohan-san! Strong enough to push me uses Final Jinchuuriki mode. However, up until now I only use chakra, a mixture of ki and spiritual energy"
"What do you want to imply?" Gohan narrowed his eyes cautiously.
Naruto grinned widely and retort. "Do you want to see me use it? I am curious about that myself!"
Spectator's seat
Vados smiled widely at Naruto's declaration and turned to Champa.
"Champa-sama, Naruto-kun was about to use his ki"
But Champa was confused about that. "And? What is so special about that?"
Vados shook her head and started to explain. "You still didn't got it, Champa-sama?". Champa shook his head in negative. "Up until now, Naruto-kun using only chakra to utilize all his techniques. That means he is using putting only half of his ki in his attacks. Now what will happen if he uses pure ki in his attacks? Not to mention, Naruto-kun has the most chakra on his planet"
"I see. If he uses pure ki than Gohan-san may not stand a chance. We also don't know how much ki he has, since he only used chakra all the time" analyzed Whis seriously. The Angel turned to Beerus and said. "Beerus-sama, it seems we are in serious trouble!"
"I know that!" retort Beerus narrowing his eyes in wary.
With Naruto and Gohan
Naruto stopped his grin and then closed his eyes to concentrate. Slowly he began to feel more ki to banish the spiritual energy within him. Then more and more, he started to fill his chakra pool with only ki, extracting ki from chakra bit by bit.
At first, it was nothing special. Naruto's ki was just raising bit by bit like of any fighters. But as the time pass, it continued to grow more and more. And then illogically, it began to skyrocket more ridiculous than ever. The ground below the blond started to crack, creating craters, pieces of stones started to float. The already nonexistent sky began to shoot lightning out of nowhere.
The numbers grew illogically fast making the Saiyans gaped in shocked. Hell, in Frieza couldn't maintain his usual arrogant attitude, and gritting his teeth in anger. Goku felt like they were battling Majin Buu once again, but this time far worse. Vegeta even fell to his knees mumbling about impossible.
Jiren is now openly smirking, which shocked Toppo and Dyspo even more.
Naruto felt that was enough for the first test and stopped extracting his ki abd let things died down. Immediately everything turned back to normal, except the surroundings. Opening his eyes, Naruto glanced back at his opponent and stated.
"Are you ready for round 3?"
Gohan gritted his teeth in wary and strengthen his stance. You could see a nervous sweat dropped down his temple.
Preview: Osu, it's me, Goku, again! Gohan has finally challenged Naruto to a battle. He seemed like doing fine, until Naruto decided to release his ki. Be careful, Gohan! He is much stronger than he used that chakra of his.
Next time: Naruto has unleashed his ki! Outraging infinite ki user! Cornering Gohan! Try not to miss this, ok?
A/N: Ok, that's it for this chapter. Yaah, Naruto has finally unleashed his ki. He even managed to draw Jiren's interest. His ki raising is kind of like Broly, no logic can be explained, but while Broly boosting ki during battle, Naruto boost his ki when power up only. The reason for his ki is simple, he has been drawing out ki from Kurama as well as a test.
Don't worry about Gohan, I didn't neglect him. Because being put to the corner, Gohan finally managed to awaken the form he was aiming to achieve. But he still won't win, as Naruto decided to combine his ki with Sage mode, it kind of like a power down Ultra Instinct. Though Gohan won't be eliminated just yet.
I will spoil only that for this chapter. Hope to see you guys in the next chapter.
R&R. JA NE!
