Naruto of Knocking and the True Sennin of Konoha
Disclaimer: I Don't own Naruto or Toriko.
Flashback,
"Tsunade-hime!"
The woman in question turned towards hearing the way her name was used but then noticed Naruto and thought of something huge. 'He can be the one; my leader."
"Seems that rumors couldn't even get close to your beauty..." Naruto stated that got Tsunade threatening to heat up; she wasn't dumb or deaf, she was aware of rumors regarding her looks and now Naruto had made her more beautiful then she originally thought. That is until, "No Fair! How did you get Tsunade-hime to blush and not get punched like she does to me!?" Jiraiya cried anime tears while ruining the mood. POW! BAM! The Toad Sage was embedded in the wall that was behind him before, "Like that..." Jiraiya stated before turning out like lights.
"So anyways," Tsunade said to grab Naruto's attention; she was really impressed that a brat had gotten her method of handling perverts down so fast. "I have been hearing about a Genin that used an s-rank jutsu and finished off our treacherous former teammate, are you him?" Naruto blushes a red streak and nodded while scratching the back of his head; this told Tsunade that is as modest as he was able to pull off such a jutsu that had the rights to be a forbidden jutsu and in the Scroll of Sealing in Konoha. "It seems that ever since I went after that Uchiha and fought against the Jinchuriki of Shukaku, The One Tail, I have been finishing The Sennin one by one. All there is left is you, Tsunade-sama." Naruto stated that took The Slug Sage by surprise that Naruto, who had enough skills and wits to be a Kage will be so respectful towards their elders and yet he is talking that he is searching for a fight with her. "Why the honorific, I don't own you and I only have Shizune, "Tsunade points to the black haired girl with a pig in her arms, "As my companion and student, so what am I to you?" Naruto smiled, "You can take over some of my students."
This left everyone in the bar baffled, including Tsunade and Jiraiya who just freed himself from the crater in the wall. "Your...students, gaki? Then how did you get so knowledgeable at such a great age?" Tsunade asked for clearance, "Whatever I explain or not, it will make no difference so I am not going to bother. Either way, some of my students are girls that need someone with enough experience as a female ninja so I thought coming with Ero-Sennin was my best chance of finding you." Naruto explained that made Tsunade chuckled that someone else was smart enough to see what her former teammate was like, "That and I would like to tell you that Konoha has requested that you take over as the Fifth Hokage."
"No." Tsunade said bluntly and not with hesitation like she was prepared for this question and it surprisingly didn't cause Naruto to stir, "Sorry Gaki, but I have decided to do enough for a village that took away everything I ever treasured and not do anything about ~BZZT! OWW!" Tsunade was intercepted when Naruto pointed his pointer and ring finger on her forehead causing her pain and a feeling like someone was messing with her Chakra Control but Naruto still had a look of unsatisfactory on his face. "What are doing ~OWW!?" Tsunade was hit again on the forehead by the same boy, "OWW! Knock it off!" Tsunade was hit repeatedly but to everyone, they saw a woman being harmlessly poked by a little kid. "Sorry Tsunade-sama but it is either that you accept and I will stop but if you are still stubborn, expect this 24/7. Understand?"
"B-but...OWWW!" Now Tsunade was acting like a child being punished and scolded and frightened; unlike anything a Sennin would do. "A lot of people back in Konoha were almost convinced that I would become the Fifth Hokage but the only thing I lacked was experienced so the council was chewed out to send me to look for you until I continue to show I truly have what it takes to take over as your successor." Naruto explained honestly that made Tsunade have hope in her eyes that Naruto can just take over when she thinks he is ready and have anger in her eyes that the council is still trying to rule the village themselves. "Alright." Tsunade said which got everyone's attention, "And before you get any ideas, it is not about going back to Konoha. It is about a duel with you and that I have to meet with a weaken Snake Sage to supposedly heal him of his condition and give his power back."
On a wide field outside the town, Naruto and Tsunade faced each other. "Okay Brat, some rules." Naruto nodded, "First one; no Ninjutsu of any type expect for Taijutsu. Second, I am going to use only one finger in this duel so if you force me to use more, you are the winner. Third and most important, if you disobey the rules, I automatically win. Understand?" Naruto nodded and took a fighting stance while Tsunade relaxed and showed her right pointer finger. Shizune was on stand bye as the ref, "Ready? Hajime (Begin)!" Naruto trust his right pointer and ring finger at Tsunade's chest as she contorted and was sent flying like a wrecking ball appeared out of nowhere and stroke that spot.
"Hey! I said no Ninjutsu so I win..." "I wasn't Tsunade-sama." Naruto interrupted casually and Jiraiya on the side nodded which confused Tsunade until her arm hit her own face and was thrown back again. She tried to figure out how a Gaki is doing this when she felt limp and couldn't get up. She did see Naruto standing beside her in triumph, "You are out of your league missing with a person like Tsunade-sama. Now the rules said that if you use more than one finger, I win and you did when you hit yourself with a punch." Naruto grinned while Tsunade was steaming with rage that she let a kid pull some strings and use some loopholes to a victory. "Alright Gaki, I get it. I will go back if you will remove whatever you placed on my body and I will give you a bonus. As for why, just do it!" Naruto sighed and poked Tsunade with his two fingers and she felt like her arms were back in business. "Now then the bonus..." Tsunade took of her necklace and placed on Naruto's neck and kissed him on the forehead, "It will be great to live under a Hokage like you, just like grandpa." Naruto smiled and nodded.
Day to Meet Orochimaru;
Tsunade is walking through the alleyways of town with one thing on her mind; to suppose heal the weakened Snake Sage. But she had a look on her face that suggested other plans, she just went on her way when Orochimaru appeared, "Well, Tsunade? Have you made your decision? I gave you a week and the time is up." Tsunade didn't finch, she just channeled chakra in her hands and began to settle tem on his body when his right hand man, Kabuto, separated them.
"That is not medical Ninjustu, Orochimaru-sama. You have made your decision and you will regret it." Kabuto said when Tsunade charged at him so he attempted to dodge but his face was hit anyways. "How dare you betray a former comrade, Tsunade?!" Orochimaru roared and the woman chuckled, "Naruto-kun was right, you are a pedophile and a hypocrite. When you betrayed us, you were never of the Three Sennin of Konoha; Naruto-kun is more powerful than me and Jiraiya-baka as well as you. I am not running away this time and neither are you!" Tsunade charged at them. "Orochimaru-sama, he can't fight fully in a narrow space!" Kabuto yelled at his master. "Fine!"
"Looks like Tsunade-sama has performed her part perfectly so far," Naruto stated while observing the damaged sight in front of him, Jiraiya, Shizune and Tonton. "I still don't know how you got her to do this plan, Gaki." Jiraiya stated either confused or frustrated. "Never mind that Shizune," Naruto turned to the woman, "Can Tonton pick up the scent?" Naruto pointed to a cloak that Tsunade dropped during her clash with Orochimaru. The pig sifted it and looked around for a trail and ran off, "That way!"
On the Outskirts of Town;
"Pant...pant..."
"Huff...ackk..."
Tsunade and Kabuto were taking a breather while standing a field that looked like a shower of small meteors hit it; craters and all. Though Orochimaru was just standing on a boulder waiting for his former teammate to be weakened so he can interfere and force her to heal him; still, he is getting impatient as how much time it is taking to do the job for his right-hand man.
The same was also getting frustrated with how prolonged his fight is getting so he reached for his pouch and took out a red ball. 'A military's ration pill' Tsunade thought as Kabuto threw it into his mouth and swallowed it. He then preformed a series of hand seals and chakra visibly surrounded his hands. "Medical Ninjustu, huh?" Tsunade said and Kabuto remained silent so Tsunade charged at him only to for the boy to be absent.
'Where did he go?' Tsunade thought but Kabuto took her by surprise and stroke her from the ground only for Tsunade to shatter like a broken mirror and the shards pierced and cut Kabuto all over her body. "What?!" Kabuto was confused; his attack doesn't shatter targets, it just disables the muscles and attack inside.
"Congratulations Kabuto, You are the first person to uncover another secret about my jutsu." A voice sounded like Naruto and sure enough the boy appeared with Jiraiya, Shizune, and Tonton behind the real Tsunade. "I thought something was to be looked at when you stank of snakes more than the other Oto (Sound) Genin and that you knew what isn't known among the general public; you are a spy."
"I am also impressed that the little boy that I had to keep an eye on has matured in the same year." Kabuto sneered that made Naruto chuckled until a scream was heard; "GAKI!" Orochimaru finally ran out of patience and started to interfere while Jiraiya and Tsunade were about face him when they felt like something was holding them back; turning back, they saw Naruto channeling chakra like threads that constrained their movements.
"I will face the Snake-stinking pedophile while you finish off his henchman and when you are done, and then you can fight with me. Understand?" Naruto ordered that made everyone think the world was dying and being reborn as that a kid that was just been made Chunin was ordering more experienced Sennin that were in real wars around. The Snake Sage just stood there staring off when he was sent back with a direct fist that broke some ribs and he lost some of his blood; that was enough for him to engage the boy while the two Sennin make short work out of Kabuto the traitor.
"Sen'eijashu!" Orochimaru unleashed many snakes appearing out of nowhere at Naruto who smirked 'Snakes is it?' "Katon: Kibatsu Hohebi!" Naruto took in a breath and bellowed twice the amount of snakes made of fire from his mouth that destroyed Orochimaru's snakes and burned him with their fangs of fire. "So you like fire because you still haven't enough of my Fire Jutsu from days ago." Naruto mocked in order to provoke Orochimaru which is succeeding, "I just don't feel like showing it again so I will dim the light show for a bit," Naruto preformed hand seals at an abnormally fast rate, "Katon: Bazooka no Hi!" Naruto had used a weaker version of the S-Rank Technique that weakened Orochimaru in the first place exempt the Sennin in question was not to be seen but Naruto just made a Kage Bunshin while he performed different hand seals from the Bunshin,
"Doton: Dokaisakuhebi!"
"Doton: Joushou Tsuchihebi!" Naruto placed his hands on the ground that caused it to start rumbling and a scream was heard both in front of Naruto and far behind him as the Bunshin dispelled. Out from the earth, came Orochimaru in a sadder state and bound by snakes made of earth biting him and snapping him of his strength; he was completely helpless. "Now your Sensei and teammates may have spared you of death but even I couldn't stop this from happening, Sage Sennin. It has come to this now; you will be erased off this world forever. Your relate on chakra to preserve your immortally was overlooked by those everyone respects over me but I managed to discover it; I am head of my own generation and I will help those of my age to be welcomed there. You have lost to both your lust and fear, Orochimaru." Naruto then performed hand seals in seconds before clapping his hands, "Futon: Gohitofuki no Engi!"
The air that was inside Orochimaru's lungs started to enlarge to first shatter them from the inside and abruptly tear apart the rest of the body including the surroundings to form a large sized crater with Naruto surrounded by a cube of wind that protected him. He then turned to see if the rest of the Sennin were okay. When he did find them, they were standing over Kabuto and by the looks of it; even I won't want to know what happened. "Gaki get over here." Tsunade demanded with a voice drowned in exhaustion, Naruto complied. "Now, since we heard a sonic boom that nearly shattered out ears and we drained ourselves stuck with this basterd, I will hit you but instead," Tsunade lifted his headband and kissed his forehead, "I welcome you to the ranks of the Three Sennin in Orochimaru's place; from today forever, you will be known as Naruto Uzumaki, The Fox Sennin." Only the sun was brighter than the smile on Naruto's face as well as everyone else's'.
