Last time, Sasuke's defeat by Naruto's hands was shocking to all of Konoha, more since Sasuke might never be able to use his arm ever again even if it was reattached. The chunin exam then went to the finals were Naruto's idea of an all-out 3-way battle with the final three genin in the tournament. With the approval, the entire stadium is about to witness the final 3 participants fight.

Audience

Everyone in the audience stands waited with anticipation as the final three genin are going to fight each other. As they watch, several had worried thoughts about what's going to happen.

Haku and Hinata worried since Naruto was going to be fighting against not just one opponent, but two with one of them being Suna's Jinchuriki, who proved to be dangerous.

Kakashi looked worried since Naruto will be facing two jinchuriki at the same time.

Zabuza wondered on what will Naruto do against Gaara of the sand or against Ko since he is intrigued on what he will do in this crazy match.

The Sandaime worried over on what was going too happened to everyone. A thought on how he was going to punish Naruto, if he survived, after the chunin exam for such an insane suggestion.

Yugito and Bee were worried on what Naruto was doing and hope that he knows on what he is doing, especially since they now know that Ko is also a Jinchuriki, but doesn't know on which jinchuriki.

Samui had her emotionless look on her face, but internally was worried on what was going to happen in this final match. The only thing she can do for him is hope that he'll be alright.

Arena

Naruto looked at the two other genin as he looked at their faces. He saw how gleeful/excited Gaara's face looked at the thought of kill either him or Ko. He then focus on Ko, where he can tell that he didn't want to fight, but is being forced to. He also knows from Yugito that Ko is the jinchuriki, but isn't sure on which one, where Naruto knew he had to be extra careful. As he looked at them, he can't but feel sorry for them since seeing their eyes reminded him on how he use to hate being stared at like that or how lonely it made him felt whenever he was seen like that.

Naruto looked on, against the other two jinchuriki, with determination, "I know I must be insane for asking this type of battle. But…"

(Yugioh OST: Millenium Battle)

2: 40 – 4:00

As he thought about his time here in Konoha. He use to remember how he always had to hide from villager and shinobi, who haunted him down to try and hurt him. How he had to search for scraps so he can survive if the Sandaime wasn't around or when he didn't want to bother Ichiraku Ramen chief.

"… As I think about it, my life could have been just like them if I wasn't thrown away and saved by Darui-san and brought to Kumo. Now that I think about, if Konoha didn't try to kill me, I would never met Samui, A, Bee, Yugito and all of my friends and masters in Kumo, where I believe I could have turned out to be like them or something similar to them. If I had to guess, I probably would have never even know who my parents identity are as the old man would have still kept that them from me." Naruto thought, as he gripped his hands tightly as he remembered on what Bee once told him, that Jinchuriki are treated as weapons, instead as people. He looked at them since he knew that Gaara and Ko were victims of that kind of treatment.

Naruto's determination on what he intends to do was now completely on overdrive, "No matter what happens… I'm not going to just beat the both of you, I'm going to save them like Yugito and Bee-sensei save me from myself." Naruto declared to himself, where he got ready as he, and everyone, in the stadium heard Genma yell out, "The Final Match of the Chunin exam now begins!"

(OST End)

Outside of Konoha

Konoha anbu were continuing the surveying the area around the village. As they continue to check out the area, they didn't notice that the army of suna or oto nin were getting ready to start the invasion.

Arena

When Naruto heard Genma say the match start, Naruto quickly unsealed his left wakizashi sword from behind his waist near where his katana was sealed while unsealing one of his sabre claw from on top of his left shoulder.

It was after he pulled out his weapons, Naruto immediately got into a defensive stance, while he saw Ko pulled out his tanto knife. They paid attention to each other, then to Gaara, who unleashed his sand from his gourd behind his back. Both Ko and Naruto looked at Gaara as he first started to act strange from a severe headache or something since Gaara was mumbling about something. Gaara continued to mumble apologizes and such to some imaginary person in his mind before he went back to normal. When he got back to normal, Gaara narrowed his eyes at both Naruto and Ko.

In a flash, Gaara unleashed his sand against them. The sand moved like water towards them where both genin made their move. Naruto channeled a small amount of his lightning affinity into his sword to sharpen the blade as he run around the arena as he moves to get closer to Gaara. Ko jumped back and onto the arena wall as he then moved to get closer to Gaara as he prepared his water jutsu against him.

Gaara saw them move around where he split his sand to catch either one of them. Naruto saw the sand come after him, where he instantly used his incredible speed to dodge the sand but also to get close to Gaara. Naruto manage to get to close to Gaara where he then tried slash at him. Gaara's sand immediately tried to block it. Naruto's lightning covered sword was able to cut through the sand but it the force of the slice slowed down enough for Gaara to move back a bit to avoid the blade.

At the same time, after Naruto tried to attack Gaara, Naruto and Gaara where attacked by a powerful water jutsu. Naruto quickly moved back to the top of the arena wall, opposite of the audience to avoid the attack, while Gaara's sand blocked the attack.

As Naruto dodge the attack, he saw several shurikens flying towards him. He was still in midair as he used both his blades to block the shurikens that came at him. As he blocked the shurikens, he saw a few of them had explosive tags attached to them, where he had no chance to escape. The tags exploded, where Naruto was near the edge, catching Naruto in the blast radius.

The explosion was big enough to create a bit of a smoke screen where everyone couldn't see what happened to Naruto.

"NARUTO!" Yelled Yugito, Karui, Omoi while Samui, Hinata, and Haku looked in horror at what happened to Naruto.

A and Bee looked in worried at what happened to Naruto, especially since the smoke from the explosion has cleared to see that Naruto wasn't around the arena.

Kakashi looked worried at what happened, while Gai and the other jonin were wondering on what happened to Naruto. Lee was also curious on what happened to Naruto since he respected him as not just as a rival, but also sort of as a friend.

Ino and Sakura was one of many who enjoyed on what happened to Naruto. These two, along with many Konoha shinobi and civilians were glad to see Ko kill the Kyuubi Jinchuriki, where they cheered the boy on.

The Konoha elders didn't show it, but internally were glad to know that Ko killed Naruto since it took away a threat. Now they hope that Ko can kill Gaara, then the possible threats for Konoha will be taken care of.

Everyone's attention then went from what happened to Naruto to what's going to happen to Ko and Gaara.

Gaara looked pissed at how Naruto was killed by Ko, but was going to enjoy killing Ko since Ko took his new prey from him.

Once the moment of Naruto's death has past, Ko and Gaara fought against each other. Ko used his water jutsu to attack Gaara, while keeping a safe distance before he can attack him at close range. Gaara used his sand to attack and defend against Ko, as he used his sand as a weapon.

Everyone watched on as the match has drag on for a couple of minutes. It was then that Gaara started to perform his own jutsu, as he started to cover himself in his sand like a cocoon. Ko tried to stop him, but Gaara's new absolute defense just made it impossible.

As Gaara used incase himself in his sand, the suna shinobi looked at him with weird or anger at what Gaara was doing.

Temari looked at her little brother in fear, "Oh no… That the third eye…" As she saw a eye, made out of sand being formed above Gaara as he continue to incase himself in sand, "… he's actually trying to unleash 'that' jutsu now."

Kankuro looked worried on seeing Gaara incasing himself, "Oh man this is bad. I say we bail now."

Baki looked enrage at what Gaara was doing, "Gaara, you little fool. With this, he won't be able to see signal when the invasion starts."

When Gaara finished incasing himself in his sand, Ko leap back to the top of the arena wall, opposite of the audience, as he decided to prepare a powerful water jutsu that Danzo had trained him to use, for the purpose to kill Gaara, if he took out Sasuke. Just as he was ready to unleash his jutsu when he heard a sizzling sound near him.

He looked around until he looked beneath his feet to see that next to his feet was an explosive tag, where at that moment, ignited.

Everyone saw the explosion where they saw Ko being sent into the air with severe injuries. They all looked confused on what just happened, especially Gaara. Their curiosity ended when they all heard a familiar chirping sound coming somewhere in the arena when all of a sudden, the chirping echoed throughout the arena as it signaled to everyone that it strike it target. They all look down to see a dust trail leading to Gaara. It was when the moment ended, that everyone saw Gaara's sand cocoon being pierced by a relatively alright Naruto.

Naruto unleashed his Chidori at Gaara's sand cocoon, where Gaara's notice Naruto attack was coming towards him. Gaara unleashed the sand, from the cocoon, and create horizontal sand spikes where he tried to pierce Naruto. Naruto used his trick to perform Chidori to strike at Gaara, where Naruto dodge Gaara's sand spikes and pierced through Gaara's defense.

While the people look on in completely silence or stun expression at what happened to Gaara, while Ko struggled to get back up. Although Ko was able to move away from the explosive tag, he was still too close to blast radius, where he received minor injuries since he activated his sanbi ability of harden skin, increasing his body's resistance. However, he still received a bit of beating as he coughed up a bit of blood since the blast wave affected his body internally.

As Ko struggled to get back on his feet, the suna shinobi were stunned on what just happened as this was something that many had thought was possible, Gaara's defense being broken.

Kakuro yelled out in disbelief, "NO WAY! Gaara's absolute defense has been…"

Temari muttered in shock, "It can't be…"

"Impossible…" Baki muttered out as a beat of sweat fell down his face

"Got you" Naruto stated at Gaara

Gaara, on the other hand, was confused about something. "What's is this… this warm gush… mother… what is…" where Gaara heard a bit of a drip sound as at that moment, Naruto instantly moved back, pulling out his arm to let the light from the hole that he made for Gaara to clearly see what it was. When Gaara saw what it was, all hell broke loose.

"Ahh…UWAAAA! BLOOD...! IT'S MY BLOOD…!" Gaara yelled in terror

Temari looked in disbelief since Gaara has never been injured before. Naruto, who was nearby, narrowed his eyes as he looked on from inside the hole he made to see what was happening with Gaara.

Naruto looked deeply into the hole where he saw weird type of movements inside it. It was then Naruto saw a weird eye, as killing intent was so strong that several people felt a chill running through their spines. Naruto, who has trained with Killer Bee and Yugito, as well as the Raikage, taking on their killing intent, it wasn't so bad for him.

Killer Bee and Yugito sense what it was, where their bijuus told them that the Ichibi has somewhat awakened a bit.

Gaara's sand cocoon started to crumble down to reveal himself, but with a bleeding wound on his left shoulder. Naruto looked on at Gaara as he remembered on what he felt.

"The real fight is about to begin. Both Gaara and Ko are pushed to their limits now since they're seriously injured. I'm going to have to be prepared on what's going to happen next." Naruto thought

His thoughts were interrupted as he saw Ko stood back up, but barely stood his ground as he then demand on how Naruto was still alive considering that he was at point blank range from the explosion. Naruto simply stated, "If an entire mob of civilians and shinobi, from chunin to jounin, wasn't able to kill when I was 5… what makes you think that a simple explosive tag technique from a single genin could do to me." Answering Ko as Naruto remembered on how he escape from his suppose death.

Flashback

As the explosive tag was about to explode, taking Naruto out, Naruto was suddenly poof out at the exact moment the tags exploded. Naruto was, now, about a quarter mile from the stadium, above the tree lines.

Naruto fell on his back as he breathed deeply on what was about to happen to him. He looked around to see one of his summon creature. He smiled at his summon creature looked at Naruto, "Good timing you know that bro. If you haven't done that reverse summoning on me, than I wouldn't be here right now."

"It's more like thanks to me and my brother's divine eye that save you. If it wasn't for the fact that my brother is hiding in the crowd that help me see you. I wouldn't have seen the killing move in time to perform the reverse summoning jutsu on you." The divine created explained

Naruto sigh, "I knew it was a good idea to summon on of you guys, but I'm surprise I summon two of you instead. I'm more surprise in the fact that you and you're brother have that kind of visual power." Admitting to his creature

"Yes, will it took some time to develop this kind of power… but in any case, I think you should get ready. My brother is secretly moving towards the arena floor, preparing to re-summon you when the time is right. You're going to have to be ready since this might be your chance to take out both your opponents." The creature stated, where Naruto look down on his summoning creature as nodded in understanding.

Naruto resealed his weapons back into their proper place where he prepared another Chidori to strike down his opponent. After a moment, he was re-summoned back to the stadium, where he made his move against Gaara and Ko.

End Flashback

Naruto prepared himself as he unsealed a sheath katana on his left side and took a stance like a samurai, ready to draw it out.

As Naruto was prepared to continue his fight against Gaara and Ko, something else was happening. Somewhere in the stands, Kabuto, in a disguised anbu agent, was performing a genjutsu on the crowd. Those who couldn't break it or detect it fell for the genjutsu. Others, such as veteran shinobi as well as experience young shinobi, like Sakura and Hinata, where able to break it without getting trapped in it.

Yugito and Bee had their biju break the illusion before getting caught, while Naruto, who started to fall for it, stop his chakra and bit his bottom lip enough, to cause a bit of blood, to break the illusion. Ko used Genjutsu Kai to break the genjutsu.

As Konoha shinobi wondered on what was happening, Baki, Temari, and Kankuro had the same thought, "Operation has now began."

Konoha Wall

The Konoha shinobi that were on their post, looking over the horizon ready to defend against anything, were suddenly surprise to see a giant explosion of smoke. At first, they were wondering on what it was but then every guard suddenly got a case of fear when the smoke disappeared to reveal a 3 headed giant snake coming towards them. Those who return back together were able to jump out of the wall, while those who weren't lucky were crushed by the monster snakes that broke through the wall.

The Konoha shinobi were ready to fight off the giant snakes when squads of suna and oto shinobi came through the destroyed part of the great wall. The suna and oto shinobi attacked the konoha shinobi as they started their invasion and destruction in Konoha.

Kage's box

As the genjutsu was in full affect, the Kazekage looked towards the Hokage's face, where the Hokage did the same thing. At the exact moment, A and Mei wondered on what's going on. It was then that the two guards of the Kazekage moved forward, while dropping a smoke grenade.

When the smoke grenade exploded, the two konoha anbu teams moved towards the Kage's box.

"Li team, above! Ro team, below! Protect the ministers!" ordered the anbu commander

The commander then saw both of the Kazekage's bodyguard move towards him and his team, to try and stop them. The anbu commander didn't waste any time to slice them in half with two of his kunai.

As the anbu got to the Kage's box, several sudden movements moved out of the smoke filled area. A, Darui and Cee, along with Mei and her bodyguards, leapt to different parts of the roof, near the edge to insure a quick getaway. In the center, one of the movement revealed the Hokage by kunai from the Kazekage, leaping a bit further back from the others, near the center of the roof.

Before the anbu could leap towards the Hokage and Kazekage, the fall half of the Kazekage's bodyguards had some movement, where 4 people jump out of it and landed on a 4 corner pattern, creating a somewhat ring.

"Purse them!" order the anbu commander

Before they could reach them, the Kazekage order the 4 to perform their jutsu. The 4 people yelled out, "Shishienjin!" The 4 shinobi then created a solid barrier formation where the walls were made of a purple flame. When one of the anbu tried to get through it, he was burned to death from the purple flame. The others watched, as the Anbu commander was displease by it, "Great, there's no way to get through it."

As the anbu stayed near the barrier, Sarutobi looked on what was happening now.

"For the sand to betray the leaf…" Sandaime said, where the Kazekage started too explained on how stupid and alliance truly is.

"You want to start a war?" the old man asked

"Exactly" the Kazkage answered

"We should avoid solving things through force, and work out our differences through negotiation. Kazekage, there is still time." The Sandaime pleaded with the Kazekage.

The Kazekage only chuckled at Sarutobi's plead, "Heh… do we become peace loving fools when we age, Sarutobi-sensei?" which the Hokage suddenly realize on who the Kazekage was.

Arena

As Naruto, Gaara, and Ko focus on what was happening around them, while still keeping an eye out for an attack on them, Baki and Gaara's siblings came down to his side. Genma leapt down to Ko's side, while Yugito landed to Naruto's defense.

Baki looked at Gaara and told him to proceed with the plan. It was then that he, and his siblings, saw something was wrong with Gaara.

"Fool! Trying to transform into you complete form before the signal!" Baki commented on Gaara's idiocy

Temari was by her brother's side, examining him, "He's experiencing the side-effects. It's impossible to proceed now, especially since he's heavily wounded." Explained Temari on Gaara's situation

"Then what are we supposed to do? We can't do it without Gaara!?" question Gaara

Baki looked at Genma and Yugito, who were standing guard. He then ordered the both of them to retreat with Gaara, help him recover a bit so he can then join the battle a bit later. With that, Temari and Kankuro quickly took their brother and left for a safe place.

Naruto and Ko watched as Temari and Kankuro took Gaara away from the stadium.

Genma looked on and asked Baki if Orochimaru was behind all this. Baki simply answered, "Who knows? Let's just join the fun."

"Looks like my match is now official over considering on what's happening." Naruto stated

"Seems so… anyway Naruto, we need to get back to the other and meet up with Raikage-sama and proceed out of Konoha since this matter doesn't involve us." Yugito explained

Naruto listened to Yugito, but looked at where Gaara and his siblings escaped, as well as Ko, who followed them with Genma's order as well as Danzo's. He looked down on the ground before he tighten his fist a bit, "Wait… Yugito-san… I know that this situation doesn't involve Kumo, but both Gaara and Ko are like us. So, I'm sorry, but can I go and try and set things right for them." Naruto pleaded with Yugito

Yugito looked at Naruto, before sighing to herself. She remembered how tough it was for her when she became a jinchuriki. But of course, it was nothing compared to what Naruto had to go through, not to mention Gaara and possibly Ko. She thought about it and said, "Go… but you better return since I don't want A-sama to punish me for your idiocy." Where Naruto nodded and left to go after them.

Baki watched as Naruto proceed to stop him, but stop when Yugito moved in to prevent him from doing so.

"Why is Kumo trying to get involved in this? This has nothing to do with your village." Baki stated

Yugito looked at him, "Your right… this has nothing to do with Kumo. But unlike you, me and other like me have to stick together when our villages wouldn't." stating her reason towards Baki.

It was then, when Naruto left the stadium that Yugito leapt back towards the rest of her Kumo shinobi that Baki's attention turned to Genma, who was ready to fight.

Roof

While the fighting in the audience seats start off, the Hokage and Kazekage prepared to do battle against each other, while both the Raikage and Mizukage looked on what was going on inside the barrier, with Konoha anbu team paying close attention on their leader.

"Hehehe…" the Kazekage laughed, where Sarutobi looked at him with awareness on who it was, "I see… so that's it…"

"Your foolishness has caused the leaf to fall further and further behind… I have won." The Kazekage stated

"Heh, it's not over till it's over. I thought I taught you that… Orochimaru." Sarutobi stated with grin at his former student, with a bit a sweat falling down his face as Orochimaru ripped his disguise of the Kazekage off him.

Those outside the barrier, witnessing for themselves, the Raikage and Mizukage, along with their bodyguards and konoha anbu saw as Orochimaru took off his disguise mask of the Kazekage.

"So that Kazekage was Orochimaru in disguise… I was wondering on why he was acting odd." A thought, at seeing the S-rank criminal

"This could be bad… especially for the Hokage since he's already been submitted." Mei thought as she looked at Sarutobi's predicament.

"I thought this day would come eventually, but…" narrowing his eyes at his former pupil, "… you won't get my head so easily." Hiruzen stated

"You know, you should have hurried and pick the fifth since today… you will die, third." Orochimaru replied as he brought the kunai, he held in Sarutobi's neck, and lick the tip of blade.

As the tension between Orochimaru and the Sandaime Hokage continue to grow with the spectators looking on from outside the barrier, the action that was beginning in the audience stands were heating up.

Kakashi and Gai were getting their bearings together as many Konoha shinobi prepare for battle. Kakashi and Gai found the traitor in disguise as a konoha anbu since he was now aided by near a dozen oto shinobi. As they prepared to make their move, Gai informed Kakashi on who is inside the barrier.

"Orochimaru!" Kakashi stated with a small sweat drop down his face.

When Sakura heard this, she couldn't help but be afraid on what's he doing here and wondered if he was going to go after Sasuke, especially now since he is injured, unable to defend his self.

Just as Sakura was going to go to the emergency room, two oto nin came at her which she couldn't defend against. It was then that Kakashi intervene and save her from the two as he killed them both with headshot from two kunai knives.

Sakura look up to see Kakashi standing over her, "Sakura, stay like that for a bit. I'll eve out the odds a little." With a smile on his face

It was then that Konoha went against the oto and suna nins that were in the stadium. As the battle between heats up, several groups were just assuring that they're ok.

Zabuza and his team were defending themselves from any stray kunai or shuriken weapons while striking at anyone that thought they were an enemy.

"Sensei! What should we do?" ask Zabuza's disciple

"I have already sent Haku and our other teammate to find out. We'll go over and protect the Mizu Daimyo until they return once they hear on what the Mizukage orders are." Zabuza explained where his student nodded in understanding on what they needed to do.

Bee and his students were busy deflecting and beating away any shinobi that got too close to them or their country's Daimyo. As they were busy protecting each other, they argued about the situation they were in.

"Man… this is nuts… not only are their oto nin but also a lot of suna as well!" Karui yelled out

"I wonder if this is going on around the village? What if we get caught up in the fight, which results in us getting separated and…" Omoi started rambling on before Kaui hit his head and told him to knock it off.

"I'm more curious on where the shinobi guarding the Daimyo are? They're supposed to be guarding him, not leaving him here completely defenseless." Samui wondered out loud.

"Those are fools are fools when big bro finds them, their ranging by bro punches." Killer Bee rhymed

(I told you all, that I'm not good with rhymes)

It was then that Yugito jumped in where Killer Bee and the others were in, "Bee-sensei! How are you and everyone else doing?" asking her former sensei

"Things alright, with Killer Bee you know were alright." Bee rapped

Yugito was glad that everyone's alright and wondered on what's happening with the Raikage. They told her that they haven't heard anything from A yet, but will hopefully find out soon. Yugito nodded in agreement. It was then that Samui spoke up to Yugito.

"Where's Naruto? Shouldn't he be with you sensei?" asking her sensei

"He went to go after Gaara and Ko. He intends to finish the fight with both of them." Yugito explained

"What? Is he nuts? He's going to be outnumbered if he fought against them!" Karui remarked

Before Yugito could reply, Bee spoke out once he took care of another stray shot.

"Naru may be a fool, but he is dumb. He's just wants to help a fellow biju host just like me." Killer Bee stated as he saw the look that Naruto had when he first face them. He saw that that he was conflicted between them since he figured he could have been one of them. And like Bee, and Yugito, help him, he wants to do the same with Ko and Gaara.

Once it was said, everybody continued to work together to defend their country's leader, while they waited for the Raikage's orders.

As the stadium and village of Konoha had an all-out war against Suna and Oto, Naruto was moving as fast as he can towards Ko and Gaara since he needed to find them, to not just try and help them but also to see for himself on what he might of become if he stayed in Konoha.

Till Next time

P.S. I'm kind of having a mental block in my "Elemental Master" story. I don't know on how I should bring Naruto's girls into the story. Either I let them fall from the sky, like Naruto did, while along with them bring in a small army of demons or make a somewhat surprise entrance in his battle against Orochimaru and his army of such. Review or PM me on one of these two ideas or on any similar ideas to help me out.

Also, since everyone has mostly chosen a harem with 6 girls, I'm make it like that, but I also made a new girl poll for everyone to pick on the favorites that everyone chosen earlier. Also giving a chance for anyone who didn't get their girls to have a second chose.
