DISCLAIMER!: I DON'T OWN NARUTO! Thought you'd know by now...
(A/N): Well guys, here we are. Chapter 100. It's been an awesome ride so far. I never expected to have the awesome fan base I have right now. And you know what time it is. IT'S TIME FOR A Q&A!
Well...there weren't really any questions asked...but I CAN answer some past questions!
A lot of people have asked me if I am like Cole
Well. Yeah!? I mean, this IS a self insert story! Just my name isn't Cole, and I'm not 6' 3''. I am a respectable 6' tall. Also! If you were wondering how Cole was able to teach Naruto Taijutsu, he (Like me) had a background in martial arts before coming to the Elemental Nations. Also he learned from other taijutsu scrolls and what Anko/Kakashi could show him.
Will I do a RWBY self insert OC?
No. I haven't seen RWBY. And frankly, I have no interest in it.
BUT! I might, MIGHT, make a Naruto and Fairy Tale crossover. DO NOT QUOTE ME ON THAT I AM STILL VERY UNSURE IF I WANT TO YET!
NOW FOR SOME IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENTS!
Well guys...for those of you who wanted this story to make it to chapter 200+...I'm sorry. I actually had planned this story to end before chapter 150... :(
BUT! I am 50/50 on whether or not I want to a sequal series focused around Akira and Akari. I dunno. But if I do, it'll be like a month after I finish this series. I want to work more on "The Caged Bird" before I start another series. Honestly, that story takes a LOT of my free time, but I ain't complaining. I love to write so...yeah :)
Well, like I said, 150 is the magic number for when this will be over...sad face :(
END OF ANNOUNCEMENTS!
TO THE STORY!
. . . .
Chapter 100: Art Is An Explosion!
. . . .
The first figure turned from the battle field, a Sharingan eye glowing red from behind his mask. "Well then. Strike when you feel ready..."
. . . .
"KATSU!" Deidara called out as he tried to force another explosion on Kakashi and Gai's location. Kakashi was able to react in time to send a pulse of lighting chakra out and nullify the clay spiders the blond Akatsuki member sent after them. Gai spun while kicking several Zetsu Clones away from him. He stopped once the horde backed away and used that time to rush over to Kakashi.
"The way our foe is fighting is most UNYOUTHFUL!" Gai shouted at Deidara, who was dropping explosives on them from the skies while the army of Zetsu Clones attacked from the ground. Kakashi looked over to him with a deadpanned stare. "Why would he care if you thought he was being 'Unyouthful' or not? His tactic is working-" he said before he used a lighting enhanced kunai to bisect a Zetsu Clone that decided to get too close. "And our's is not." he finished with a huff.
Gai grumbled in agreement as he sent a elbow to a Zetsu's sternum, crushing its chest and killing it on the spot. "We need to find a youthful way up to him!" he yelled in his usual flamboyance while smashing in the skull of another Zetsu with the flat of his hand. Kakashi grunted as he stabbed another Zetsu through the chest with a Raikiri. "There's just no end to these guys..." he grumbled in annoyance.
As if on que, several Zetsu got together and grabbed each other's arms. "What in the..." Kakashi started to say before the group of Zetsu Clones morphed into one, multi-faced Zetsu Giant. Kakashi and Gai's eyes nearly popped out of their heads when they saw the beast. "That is one ugly mother fucker!" Kakashi yelled as he readied himself for the giants attack. Gai sunk into a stance as well and prepared for a fight. "I have to agree with you my youthful rival. He is rather unpleasant to look at." he said with a slight gulp, fighting back losing his lunch over the looks of the Zetsu Giant.
"AHAHAHA! LETS SEE YOU FIGHT ME NOW!" The Giant laughed as it lunged towards Kakashi and Gai. The two Jonin jumped out of the beasts way as it crashed into the ground where they were, sending debris through the air and formed a small crater under its feet.
Kakashi ran through a set of hand signs before taking in a breath. "Katon: Karyu Endan!" he exclaimed before expelling a dragon like flame towards the Giant. The giant jumped away from the fire, but wasn't fast enough to dodge Gai's attack.
"Sixth Gate of View: OPEN!" he roared before he dashed towards the giant. "ASAKUJAKU! (Morning Peacock)" he exclaimed before his fists moved in a blur, expelling fire from them due to the pure speed of his punches. Once he finished his attack, the giant was nothing more than a smoldering heap if mangled flesh.
Gai landed next to Kakashi, the Gate of View still open. Kakashi nodded to Gai and gave him a thumbs up. "Nice jo-" he started to say before an explosion rocked the area they were in.
"HAHAHAHA! How do you like that, yeah!? My art will send you out with a bang!" Deidara cackled from high in the air, fling on his clay owl. He looked down at his handy work. He used the opening that Zetsu gave him and planted several clay spiders in the rubble below the two Jonin. Truly, no better explosions could be used to send those two out.
Or so he thought.
Once the smoke cleared the two Jonin were replaced by two dead Zetsu clones. Deidara's eyes widened in shock. He activated the scope on his right eye to aid his search for the two. "Found you!" he yelled as he spotted the two Jonin a little further away in a group of dead Zetsu. Deidara jammed his hands into his clay pouches and let his hands go to work making more birds, spiders, and grasshoppers. "You cannot escape my art, yeah!" he yelled as he sent a flock of clay birds towards his targets.
Kakashi cursed as he ran through a set pf hand signs. "Raiton: Jinrai!" he exclaimed as a bolt of lighting shot from his palms and destroyed the flock. He lowed his arms and began to pant heavily. "Dammit...Almost out of chakra..." he said between breaths while he cursed their predicament. Gai looked to Kakashi with worry in his eyes. "Kakashi! Do you have any way of getting him out of the sky? If you can I can finish him off!" he exclaimed while still in the sixth gate of view. Kakashi thought for a moment before he cursed himself.
"Yeah I have one move left I could try. But it'l knock me out of the fight for a while..." he grumbled to himself. Gai nodded to his rival. "Well, do what you must my rival! If you are unable to continue I will get you over to Sakura-san. And if I cannot do that then I will protect you here! And if I cannot do that then I'll-" he started before he was cut off by Kakashi. "Alright Gai, I got it. Just be prepared to catch me!" he yelled to his friend.
Kakashi closed his eyes before taking a deep breath. And in an instant he opened his sharingan eye, gazing on Deidara. "KAMUI!" he yelled as his sharingan's tomoe morphed into three spinning fa blades.
Deidara narrowed his eyes at the two of them before he noticed the space around his owl begin to distort. "SHIT!" he yelled before the owl was ripped apart by the distortion in space. "FUUUUUCCCKKKKK!" he roared as he fell from the air, frantically trying to make another owl or falcon.
Gai quickly summoned his tortoise, Ningame. "Ningame! Please take Kakashi to Sakura while I handle our most unyouthful opponent!" he said before dashing off to face Deidara. "On it!" the tortoise said before he caught the falling Kakashi on his back and slowly made his way over to the pink haired medic.
Gai used his advanced speed while he had the sixth gate open to close the distance between him and the falling Akatsuki member and leaped up into the air to intercept him.
Deidara pulled his hands out of his pouches and revealed a finished falcon. "Got it-" he said before a foot to his face cut him off. "DYNAMIC ENTRY!" Gai roared as he sent Deidara sailing into the ground, crating a crater where he landed.
"Ghawk!" Deidara coughed as he slammed into the unforgiving earth. He coughed a few more times as he tried to stand back up. "D...Damn..." he said as he rubbed his now broken jaw. It stayed hanging and in pain as he looked at Gai with disdain. He reached his hands back into his clay pouch but was set upon by Gai before he could do anything.
He was sent flying with another kick from the Taijutsu master of Konoha. Deidara skidded across the ground for a few meters before slowing to a halt. He pulled a glob of clay out and ripped off a piece of his shirt. "I refush to die here!" he said with a lisp. "ART ISH A EXPLOSHON!" he roared as a mouth opened on his chest and began to devour the clay. Gai looked on in shocked disgust before a bad feeling was making him want to back away from the fight.
Deidara just laughed hysterically as his body started convulse. Black veins appeared on his body as his skin began to disappear. His laughing continued until his body was almost completely gone, and all that was left was a black sphere and mouth, made of the black veins.
"C0!" he cried as he released his ultimate art, enveloping over a quarter of the battlefield in a massive explosion that reached up to the heavens themselves...
