Konohamaru's Courage

Animal Realm Pein and Human Realm Pein were on top of the interrogation office.

Human realm Pein jumped off the roof as Animal Realm Pein made the hand signs and slam his hand on the ground.

Inside Shizune was explaining about the rods.

"So that's pretty much it," Shizune responded

"They transmitting chakra to each other then? It sounds similar to our clan's secret techniques," Ino responded.

"The master of the 6 paths, one of the first ninjas, use the rinnegan…if he really exists…he could use any jutsu," Ibiki explained.

Suddenly the room shake as a two headed dog like summoning with the Rinnegan burst in.

Human Realm Pein hid as Animal Pein watch.

A Rhino like summoning broke through the room causing more damage.

Katsuya came out of nowhere and protected everyone.

"Tsunade must have send Katsuya to everyone," Shizune responded

"Not just that, I saw that guy as a corpse in the man's mind," Inoichi responded.

"Uzumaki style: Seal realese!" someone shouted.

A large seal appeared around the summonings.

Ibiki Inoichi Ino and Shizune turned to see Kushina.

"Everyone get out of here," Kushina shouted.

"Kushina," Shizune responded.

Konohamaru watch as Hell Realm Pein grabbed two Leaf ninjas.

"I'll ask once more," Hell Realm Pein said as a demon like creature form from underground up, "Is the Nine-Tail Fox in this village or not?"

"We don't know what you're talking about," one said.

"I see," Hell Realm Pein responded.

The demon opened it's mouth as the two Jonin's souls were suck out of them.

The demon ate the souls as the Jonins passed out..

"What the heck is all this? He didn't move a muscle and yet the guys stop moving," Konohamaru thought, "I got to get out of here."

Konohamaru turned around and hit the wall.

The Hell Realm Pein turned and saw Konohamaru.

"Has he spotted me?" Konohamaru thought.

Hell Realm Pein headed toward Konohamaru.

Asuma jumped down in front Konohamaru.

Ash cloud surrounded Hell Realm Pein and exploded.

"That's…" Konohamaru responded.

Asuma jumped in front of Konohamaru.

"Konohamaru get out of here!" Asuma shouted.

"Uncle Asuma," Konohamaru responded.

Kushina glared at the summonings.

"Lady Kushina," Ino responded.

"What are you doing here, I told you to leave," Kushina responded, "My seals won't keep both summonings in place forever."

"Go ahead, I'll help her," Shizune responded

"Let's go," Inoichi told Ino.

"Right," Ino responded.

They left as the summonings broke through their seals.

Inoichi and Ino rushed out of the battle field with Human Realm Pein waiting.

...

Human Realm Pein spotted Inoichi and Ino running away from the battle.

…Naruto's POV...

Fukasaku and Akagitsune were sparing against me as I tried out some new jutsus I created, as well as something else I mastered.

"I can't give up," I thought, "Everyone is counting on me to get stronger."

…Normal POV Leaf Village…

Konohamaru watch Asuma fighting Hell Realm Pein.

Asuma tried everything in his power to stop Pein, but ended up being captured in the end.

"Is Naruto Uzumaki in this village or not?" Pein asked, "If you don't know, then tell me which is it."

"Even if I do know, there's no way in hell I'm going to tell you," Asuma responded, "And it does't matter who you ask, because you'll get the same result."

"Then you and the rest of the village will die," Pein responded.

"Heh, I already face death once before, and I'm not scared of it," Asuma responded, "Naruto is a ninja of the Hidden Leaf Village, and cause of it the Will of Fire burns brightly in him. Just as it burns brightly in me and every other ninja in the leaf. So do your worst, because even if you do kill me here, others will take my place, until Naruto comes back."

"Uncle Asuma …" Konohamaru thought deciding to help

...

The hell creature appeared behind Hell Realm Pein.

Just then a black 12 year old kid size Fox came up and bit down on Pein's arm that was holding Asuma.

The Fox let go of Pein when he let go of Asuma and then jump for a tackle on Pein forcing him back away from Asuma.

"What the …" Asuma responded.

"I don't sense the Nine-tails in you," Pein said to the fox, "Who are you?"

A puff of smoke surrounded the fox as it transform back into Konohamaru.

"My name is Konohamaru Sarutobi! Grandson of the Third Hokage, nephew of Asuma Sarutobi…" Konohamaru responded, "…and most importantly a former apprentice of Naruto Uzumaki!"

"Former apprentice … then you might be what we need," Pein said.

"Konohamaru get out of here!" Asuma ordered, "You're no match against this guy!"

"Don't worry about me Uncle Asuma," Konohamaru responded, "After all I'm just a decoy!"

"What?" Asuma reponded

Suddenly a second Konohamaru jumped out from his hiding spot coming at Pein, remembering a jutsu Naruto recently taught him.

Flashback a few weeks back…

Naruto took Konohamaru to the forest.

"Since you have mastered using a shadow clone to use jutsus, I think it's time I teach you a powerful move that a human can use," Naruto said.

"Really?" Konohamaru responded, "What is it? How do I master it?"

"First we'll start with a water baloon," Naruto said taking out one that he brought for the training.

"Water Baloon?" Konohamaru responded.

"That's right! With it you need to transfer your chakra into the water balloon while spinning it as rapidly at every direction causing the water to rotate with your chakra until the balloon burst … like so …" Naruto explained as the water balloon started bulging out in every possible direction until the balloon burst, sending water everywhere.

"Whoa," Konohamaru responded.

"The second step is a bit tougher. You'll need a rubber ball for this," Naruto said taking out a rubber ball, "With this you want the ball to burst like with the water balloon, except with a rubber ball it's harder because it's a solid and doesn't have any liquid in it that can rotate with your chakra."

"But wait … then wouldn't it be impossible?" Konohamaru asked.

"It seem like it, but it isn't. With this you need to focus your chakra through a single point in your hand while rotating it with over 100% of your power until it burst," Naruto said as the rubber ball started bulging until it burst with visible chakra spreading out.

"Oh cool …" Konohamaru responded.

"Now the final one is difficult. This step took me the longest to master," Naruto told Konohamaru as he took out a regular baloon.

Naruto took a deep breath and blew it up until it was full size and tied the end up.

"With this step you focus over 100% of your power, more than you did with the previous step, while keeping it into perfectly ball shape. If you can do this with a regular balloon like the one I have here, then it won't take long for you to figure out how to do it without the balloon," Naruto explained, "If you can do this you have master one of the legendary moves created by the Fourth Hokage…"

End of Flashback…

"Rasengan!" Konohamaru behind Hell Realm Pein with a blue version of the Rasengan in his hand.

Konohamaru slammed the Rasengan into Hell Realm Pein.

"That was the Rasengan …" Asuma thought.

"Are you okay Uncle Asuma?" Konohamaru asked.

"Yeah, thanks to you," Asuma responded.
