White seprent: It's possible, but Tsunade is trying to prevent that by giving him extra incentives. At some point, she may just have to go further, though.

Chapter 35: Brokecat Mountain

11 Months, 23 Days since Yoichi Left Konoha

Waking up the next morning, Yoichi found the pleasant sight of Tabi sleeping beside him, her breathing sounding more like purring rather than snoring. Reaching up, he gently brushed a lock of hair behind her ear. Tabi instinctively tilted her head towards his hand, moving her hand to rub against his fingers, the purring getting louder. He let out a small laugh, trying not to wake her, but her eyes opened at the sound.

"Morning." He said simply. Tabi widened her eyes and sat up quickly, before shaking her head and laying back against him, letting out a sigh. "Something wrong?"

"No, but that's just it… I feel… like I'm at peace. That I don't have anything to worry about. It's a bit… strange, free from being sealed. I know I suggested sealing me back in Yugito, but now…" She trailed off, Yoichi nodding and lightly scratching behind one of her ears. Her eyes widened a moment before fluttering, giving him a half-lidded and dreamy look as he did so.

He gave her a small smirk, finding the reaction adorable. He gently slid his other arm underneath her, pulling her closer, feeling her form against his. She was just a couple inches shorter than he was, but her looks could pass for both the same age as him or even older, depending on the way she acted. Her body was a lot warmer than a regular girl's temperature, most likely coming from the fact she focused on fire.

"You know, you're so cute, I could just keep you…" He said, Tabi blushing but enjoying the scratches to look away. He decided to take a risk, leaning in the few inches that separated them, pressing his lips to hers, his hand cupping her cheek now. She widened her eyes for a few moments, before slowly closing them, her body seemingly melting into him. This was the first kind of experience she'd have with something like this, but it felt so… right.

Feeling his lips on hers gave Tabi a sense of joy she'd never imagined. Not even the idea of being set free forever could compare to how he was making her heart flutter. He made her feel… human. She could feel tears well up in her eyes before slowly escaping. Yoichi had to pull back as he felt the tears hit his face, the water almost scalding.

"Tabi? Are you alright?" The concern in his voice was obvious to her. Concern for her. Someone who wasn't even human, a living beast of chakra pretending to be human. Yet right now… she felt human. She wanted to be human. If she was, then maybe… this moment would never end. For the first time in her existence, Tabi cried, burying her face into his chest.

"Yoichi… please don't leave me…! I need you…! I want to be human, I don't want to be some animal that has to be locked up! You… you're the first person to ever make me feel like I have a place somewhere…! I… I… I love you!" She couldn't even think, blurting out whatever came to her mind. She didn't know what love really was, but from what she felt now, she couldn't think of another way to put it. In practically two days, she had managed to fall for him, or so she thought.

He winced a bit from the hot tears against his chest, but nevertheless held her close, on hand rubbing her back the other stroking her hair. He could feel the sincerity in her words, Tabi truly believing what she said, but he could sense the emotional conflict inside her as well. Letting her cry a bit longer, he spoke.

"Tabi… As much as I'd like to say that I won't leave you, I can't stay here. I have to leave in a few weeks-"

"Then take me with you! I'll go wherever you do, I just… don't want to be without you!" She said, looking up into his eyes, her mismatched one glistening with tears. He let out a sigh.

"You're going through a lot of emotions you haven't felt before. I think you're more human than you realize. I would be lying if I said I wouldn't want you to come with me, but I think you're just a bit confused and scared. You don't know what I'm really like. Let's wait a few weeks until it's close to time for me to leave, and you can decide if you still want to go with me." She closed her eyes tight but nodded.

"Okay… But until then, I want to stay at your side so I can get to know you." She said as she opened them again, looking up at him. He nodded, giving her a small smile. Wanting to feel his lips on hers once again, she leaned forward to kiss him again, this time in a deeper kiss.

Despite what he told her, he decided to take things a bit further. Yoichi opened his mouth some, poking his tongue at her lips making Tabi let out a small gasp in surprise, but she quickly gave him access, running her surprisingly smooth tongue around his, and softly suckling it. It was warm inside her mouth, warmer than most as he expected, but it was practically… perfect. For not being a human woman, she could get the details down just right.

Tabi, in contrast, felt overwhelmed by the sensation, but she couldn't get enough of it. She moaned into the kiss, her legs reflexively tangling in with his. As weird as it might have been to others, his saliva was like nectar from the gods, suckling on his tongue for more to taste. It was probably due to how interested she was in his body. His scent, his taste, the feel of him against her… it was foreign yet enticing.

When he eventually broke the kiss, she let out a small whimper. Was that it? It couldn't be! But it seemed like it was, him sitting up and getting out of the bed. Part of her panicked for some reason, jumping out to grab him, but only catching his boxers, pulling them down by accident. He spun around quickly in response, his length out and erect, right in front of her face.

Neither of them said a word or moved, Yoichi because he was curious to what Tabi would do, with the other staring at his member as if entranced by it. She had seen it through Yugito's eyes and had seen it after the accident that separated the two girls, but she felt nothing about it then. Now, there was something… different. She felt her mouth water, which she found strange since she didn't require food to live, but it went away as quickly as it came.

Looking up, she met his eyes before slowly leaning in to run her tongue around the tip, getting a pleasured groan from him. She kept it up some before leaning forward more, taking more into her mouth, this time to take in the taste. She didn't know how to describe it, but if she had to, she would only be able to say 'delicious' to properly express her thoughts. She broke eye contact, focusing on the thick length in her mouth, her eyes slowly closing to enjoy it more, letting out a moan without meaning to.

She tensed up briefly when she felt his hand on her head, but feeling his fingers stroke through her hair, she doubled her efforts knowing that she was making him feel good. She didn't even notice how big he was, only noticing how far down her throat he was when her lips made contact with the base. Thankfully not being human had its advantages, like not needing to breathe like one or have a gag reflex.

With Yoichi standing beside the bed, Tabi sat on her hands and knees on the bed, moving her head back and forth on his entire length, slowly going from the tip to the base with no problem. Eventually she heard him let out a grunt, his member throbbing inside her being her only warnings before feeling him pump a thick, creamy liquid into her mouth over and over.

Not even knowing what it was she drank it down quickly, feeling a shudder run down her back, until he finished, leaving her with a mouthful of it for her to taste. It was like the tastiest cream in the world with a pinch of salt mixed in to her, eagerly swallowing the rest before looking up at him with slightly glazed-over eyes, panting as if she wanted more.

"What do you think?" He asked, not being specific but Tabi knew exactly what he meant.

"It's so good… Now I know why Yugito like you so much~" She cooed, leaning in to nuzzle against his length briefly before moving back and laying down, spreading her legs as her clothes seemed to burst into blue flames briefly, yet not catching anything on fire. "Could you… make me feel like she did?" She asked, raising one hand to her mouth to bite her knuckle.

"As you wish." He replied, getting back on the bed and climbing on top of her, looking over her figure to soak in here lithe yet curved waist and hips, her decent sized chest with puffy nipples that he lightly nipped at, making her moan, before pressing his tip against her entrance, nibbling on her collarbone before pushing in slowly, making her arch her back and wrap her arms around his neck to hold on.

If he took notice, he might have realized that it felt almost exactly the same as being inside Yugito, except a lot warmer. It wasn't just any warmth, it was the perfect warmth as if she was able to keep it from just going over into being uncomfortable. Not only that, as he slid deeper, noting the lack of resistance, he didn't feel her just tightening around him, but doing so in a way that was practically massaging his length inside her, making him groan out, biting into her shoulder briefly.

Tabi tightened her grip and moaned, feeling him move his hips to thrust in and out of her slowly, picking up speed slowly. The feeling was absolutely incredible, and she did all she could to return the favor. She felt almost idiotic for being upset at Yugito for going after him for this. How could she have resisted him? Her head fell back and her legs wrapped his waist, not wanting him to stop.

"More!" She exclaimed, feeling Yoichi stop a moment. She was confused, for a moment, before he gave one thrust inside her again that made her eyes widen, the pleasure now ten- no, twenty- no, thirtyfold! "W-wait! Too much! Too- Aaahhhn~!" She let out as he began to thrust in earnest inside her. She felt her brain turn to mush, her head limply falling back as her eyes rolled back, her mouth opening into a silly grin, her tongue hanging out as she panted heavily. Yoichi was indeed fucking the former two-tails silly.

It took only minutes before they reached their limit, Tabi letting out something akin to a howl as she came, tightening hard around him, and preventing him from pulling out. Yoichi let out a groan before depositing his seed inside her, Tabi's inside practically drinking it up and not letting a single drop spill, even as he pulled out a few moments later. He collapsed on top of her, holding her tight, Tabi almost unresponsive as she tried to quickly recover from her first, mind-shattering orgasm.

It only took her a short while, the two moving positions so Yoichi was laying down, Tabi beside him and resting her head on his chest. He gently stroked her hair, making her purr happily, any signs of their little activity gone from her already.

"Mmm~ You know, after that, it's going to be harder for you to keep me from leaving with you." She said, idly running one finger in circles on his chest. He just chuckled and shrugged.

"You know, you've got a point there… But I still think you need to take a bit of time to sort your feelings out. To me, sex doesn't necessarily equal love. I just love to have sex." He said, Tabi rolling her eyes but letting out a giggle. That was what she meant, how having him around just made her feel human and, well, normal. Before, she never thought about such a thing, but experiencing it… she didn't want to go back to just being some powerful beast.

"Alright, time to get up." He said after a few more minutes, sitting up some only for Tabi to push him back down.

"No." She said, not wanting this to end. He sighed, about to say something before his stomach rumbled.

"As much as I'm enjoying this too, I need food to survive." Tabi let out a whine but relented, Yoichi getting dressed and her turning into a smaller version of her original form to perch on his shoulder. It was actually really cute, looking a bit like a tiger cub, except blue instead of orange. And on fire.

11 Months, 27 Days since Yoichi Left Konoha

The next few days were when he finally began to put in training. B enlisted the help of a few jonin consisting of Samui, Karui, and Omoi, the latter two being the jinchuriki's students. Of course, they didn't go easy on Yoichi, pushing him to his limits fairly early in the day, letting him watch their own training as he rested. Yugito and Tabi joined them every now and then, the two preferring to lounge around. While Tabi wasn't much of a surprise, the way Yugito was acting was a bit unlike herself, but chalked it up to having part of Tabi mixed with her.

After the first few days, just as Yoichi was getting prepared to spar with Omoi, B stepped in.

"I can tell you've been holding back, so today, it's me you're to attack." Yoichi wasn't sure how he managed to make almost anything he said rhyme, but he was more worried about how quickly he accepted it.

"I have been holding back a bit, but I don't think it'll be good if I didn't." B shook his head.

"Listen up, you fool, because this ain't cool. Don't you know it's me, THE Killer B? If you want to make sure you definitely get stronger, you need to go all out like a crazy warmonger." Yoichi thought for a moment before sighing. Killer B was possibly one of the strongest people out there, and with Gyuki, too? No way could Yoichi cause him trouble.

"Alright, but… You might want to take me on like I'm a threat from the beginning. I actually haven't gone all out before, so even I don't know what I'm capable of." B raised an eyebrow but nodded, the others moving to the side to watch, B getting into his stance, waiting for the boy to make his first move. Yoichi took a deep breath and placed his hands into a handseal.

"All seals, release!" He called out, his body seeming to glow for a moment before a huge blast of wind shot out from him. The others were a bit stunned, shielding themselves from the air, B narrowing his eyes.

"Who is this, kid?" He muttered before turning to the others. "You guys might want to clear out, I don't think this will end up as some simple workout!" He called to them. They hesitated a moment before nodding and retreating to a place further away, just in time to see B transform into a partial tailed-beast form, not wanting to take any chances.

The rush of power Yoichi felt was… overwhelming. He had to take a moment to get used to it, noticing four balls floating around him, representing each of the basic elements. The only one missing was fire.

"Okay, maybe this isn't a good idea. This isn't something I've done before." He said, B motioning him on.

"Come on, don't lose your nerve! I can take anything thing you serve." At least, he hoped so. Yoichi nodded, taking a moment to get a feel for things, grabbing the orb of water to look at it more closely. It was a perfect sphere, but didn't feel as if it was made of water. He tossed it up, observing how it fell back into his hand instead of floating back around him.

Deciding to test things out, he reached back with it and chucked it as hard as he could at B, who immediately got on the defensive, not sure what was going to happen. To his surprise… nothing did. It simply hit his arm and bounced off to the ground, before shooting back to Yoichi. He grabbed the orb one again, thinking for a moment before throwing it once again, this time concentrating on it.

Halfway between the two of them, the orb seemed to burst into multiple missiles of water, each of the hitting B dead-on, a bit surprised at how hard they hit. Not enough to damage him, but still. A few moments passed and Yoichi noticed another orb of water appeared. Seemed he could use the orb to make use of a technique without any handseals through his will alone, but he couldn't use that orb again for a short duration.

To confirm this theory, he grabbed the orb of lightning, albeit a bit carefully and was surprised that it didn't shock him, throwing it at B. He got the expected result, but a bit further, the ball erupting into a lone bolt of lightning that B blocked with a tentacle, but the older man let out an audible sound of discomfort. Seemed that it actually hurt that time. A few moments later, another orb of lightning appeared, expanding from practically nowhere.

He had to admit, it was interesting, but considering how he ha to throw them, it was a bit impractical. But what if he didn't need to throw them…? Concentrating a moment, he thrusted his hand out, the water and lightning orbs shooting forward towards B. While that alone surprised him, what surprised him even more was how they collided with each other, a beam shooting out towards B that forced him to dodge instead of block.

"How do you know Storm Release?" B asked, his eyes narrowing. This was looking a bit dicey all of the sudden. Yoichi shook his head, noticing the orbs hadn't yet formed back.

"I don't, they just… hit each other and did that." Eventually the orbs reformed, but it took them three times as long to do so. Deciding to do another test, he had to more orbs shoot out, the water and wind ones this time, the two hitting each other and causing a flurry of ice shards to shoot out at B, which he dodge with ease.

"Alright, I think I get it. I can use them for techniques without any actual handsigns, and use them together to use other releases like Storm and Ice… but I can't just use them over and over." For one orb to form, it took ten seconds, for two, it was thirty. As helpful as they were, the recharge time was a drawback that could very well mean life or death if he use them at the wrong moment. The biggest question was, how could he do this?

"Hurry up, fool, that's all I've got to say! We don't have time to stand around all day!" Yoichi was snapped out of his thought by B, nodding in understanding. He ran through a few hand signs, not wanting to rely on something he just discovered.

"Lightning rods! Charge!" He called out, several small pillars forming around him, a bolt of lightning emerging from the electric orb that bounced to the pillars, infusing them with lightning. Seemed it acted as a source of lightning as well. "Amplify!"

As powerful as his attacks could end up being, he had the severe disadvantage of needing to prepare. The lightning in the pillars jumped to each other, linking them all together with only the space in the middle open for Yoichi to stand. If this was a real battle, this would have been a lot harder to pull off as his opponent would either disrupt the set up or get to him first.

After a few moments, the pillars were fully charged from each other's electricity, using the pillars to absorb more charge than they let out. Running throw a few more hand seals, he quickly knelt on the ground, placing his hands down, the pillars uprooting themselves from the ground as the connection between them broke, shifting to point a jagged end at B.

"Scatter!" He shouted, the spears of rock shooting towards him in a small cone. B thought he could just dodge, but as they approached him, the electricity stored in each of them jumping out to cover all escape routes. It was a simple counter, then, a sweep of one tentacle taking the rocks out, pulling out two of his sword and infusing them with lighting, striking the electricity to cancel them out.

"Not a bad attack mister Yo-i-chi, but you need to do better to get by me!" Yoichi smirked. While it was one of his stronger attacks for multiple targets, it wasn't one of his best. From how easy B was able to counter it, he figured he could actually go all-out.

A good bit away, Samui and her team watching alongside Yugito and Tabi in her cat form, the latter two soaking in the sun as they watched.

"I don't understand why B wanted to fight him. He's got a few good tricks, but there's no way he could take us on. He's easily a chunin, but nowhere near jonin." Omoi said as he watched, Karui having to agree with him as Samui stayed silent.

"I'm not so sure about that." A new voice said, the onlookers turning their head to see Darui staring at the spar intently.

"Darui! What are you doing here? And what do you mean?" Karui asked, Darui not even looking back to them.

"Boss sent me over to check things out as soon as we felt a disturbance. I've been watching practically the whole time, even what those orbs could do. Being able to create an advanced technique at any moment is more powerful than you might think, since there are a few releases that have been lost to time. What if he combined three together? Or all four? Why isn't there one for fire? How did he come to use these orbs if he's never seen them before?" He spoke, the questions more rhetorical to show that there wasn't enough information.

"Besides, he's just getting warmed up it seems. He's using an extraordinary amount of chakra to set up his attacks that could very well be more devastating if it wasn't for B in his partial transformation, yet he hardly looks winded." The others took another look to notice Darui was right. As ineffective the techniques would be on his own, if the enemy was distracted by someone else, then there's no telling how hard they would hit.

"So, what do you think about him?" Omoi asked, Darui letting out a sigh.

"I think that should he continue growing stronger even after hitting this level, then there might come a time where if he decided to fight our village, he might not take us down entirely, but we would suffer immense casualties. And that's if we're lucky."

Author's Note

So, Yoichi is showing more of his strength. Now, there might be people that are going to call him overpowered, and I get that, but I've got a plan for the main villain that would require him to be incredibly powerful. I think when we get to introducing the real threat, then it should make sense on why he needs to be so strong, as well as how he got this ability as well.

Anyways, hope you all enjoyed! Please make sure to follow this story to keep up to date on when I post as I do not have a regular schedule. Also leave a review/comment telling me what you did or didn't like and what you'd like to see more or less of. Any bit helps!

Until next time!
