This chapter is also dedicated to Sonny Chiba who passed away in 2021 I'm a big fan of his movies God rest his soul.
The Konohamaru corps would be in a subdivision of Genin that is more about scouting and reconnaissance they are capable of combat they just are not strongly used in combat missions. The Hyuga elders are going to be greedy and ignorant about change to a possibly murderous degree similar to a certain warrior society.
Chapter 4: Archangel Incarnate: Ride of the Dark Samurai Yamata!
Naruto is running 40 laps around the village in a navy blue Gi with black stripes. He had been given 5 months break from active missions for the Chunin exams by Guardian command and the Hokage himself. Naruto had been practicing his combat skills and maneuvers along with his jutsu's he learned from heaven for 4 hours. Naruto remembered Tamashii giving him some tips on engaging demons. Saying they are often fighting using too much instinct and no real battle strategy, leaving openings in their defensive guards for counterattacking.
So, for the last couple of weeks Naruto had been retailoring his refined brawler fighting style to deal with an even larger variety of enemies ranging from demons, and other monsters in general. Zabuza , Neko and her lover Hayate had also been helping him perfect his use of his long sword giving him a great depth of efficiency with it, along with learning how to use the Kiba no Tengu. Neko and Hayate where glad that Naruto showed them this sword as well. All three of them had wondered what other weapons Naruto had in arsenal. Naruto told them the weapons in his arsenal are from several human civilizations the warriors are from who trained him originated from are in the arsenal. Telling them about every sword, axe, spear, and halberd. Along with the bow and arrow sets he has.
Naruto had finished his 40 laps. He wipes the sweat off of himself and get out the kinks in his body with some light stretches. Before he does anything else he hears a cry of" Naruto Nii san." Naruto turns to see his protege and brother in spirit Konohamaru and two other kids. One was a girl with orange hair tied up in pig tails in an outfit the sported a purple vest over a violet shirt wearing a layered skirt in mid high boots. The other appeared to be a boy with short brown hair wearing a pair of glasses, He wore a black zip up jacket , along with regular shinobi sandals. With a nasty case of over secretion of snot.
"Hey Konohamaru, nice to see you again. Oh, and who's your friends." Asked Naruto as he walks towards the one with the snot problem and the easy of the greatest doctor. Naruto had corrected the boy's snot glands by sending some of his Hamon to repair his snot gland production limiters and wipe the snot from his nose with a tissue.
"Thanks mister. My name is Udon Ise." Said the now revealed Udon
"My name is Moegi Kazamatsuri one of the most beautiful upcoming Kunoichi's in Konoha." Said Moegi as Naruto smiles at the girls spirit.
"So Konohamaru what brings you and your friends here." Asked a smiling and curious Naruto
Konohamaru takes out a scroll to give to his older brother figure who reads it.
" So, Ebisu got hurt during a stealth mission eh and can't fulfill his duties well not to worry little buddy I'll teach you." Said Naruto in a reassuring tone
"Awesome Naruto Nii san. What are we going to be training in" asked Konohamaru excitedly?
" That depends on what Ebisu had for your teams curriculum" said Naruto as Moegi steps forward on towards the Angelic blonde.
"Is it true that you're an Avenging Angel." Asked Moegi as she, Konohamaru and Udon look at Naruto.
"Yes, I'm an Avenging Angel" answered Naruto getting a look of shock and awe.
" I always thought those rumors where only just rumors" thought Konohamaru as he looks at his brother figure in surprise. Before anything could happened, they hear a cry of " Naruto"
They turn to see a girl with mint green hair and tan skin in a outfit consisting of a sleeveless shirt over mesh armor showing her toned midriff, in a pair of Cargo pants in shinobi sandals who walks up to them.
"Ah Fuu chan how's your day been" asked Naruto as Fuu moves towards him and kisses him. Which gets looks from the young ninja scouts.
" Pretty good darling. The Hokage has me as a messenger ninja in the next five months. I was hoping you could show me some of your skills" asked Fuu as she breaks out her puppy dog eyes.
" I'd be happy to Fuu chan, but I also have to train Konohamaru and friends in martial arts also " explained Naruto as Fuu looks at the group of young teenagers who looks at her in awe with Moegi looking at Fuu with inspiration in her eyes. Fuu looking at them with a look that made her happy for her fiancé training the younger generation.
" Why not train all of us together" suggested Fuu as Naruto thinks it would be a good idea as he wouldn't have to train them in individual settings. So why not train Fuu and company in martial arts and jutsus.
" Alright I'll train you four for the next four months. But Konohamaru corps I'm not going to go easy on you so pay attention and focus." Said Naruto as he gets an affirmative nod from the group.
"Alright welcome to the Uzumaki School of Anything Goes Street Fighting, Everyone I expect you to give it your best." Said Naruto as the group gets a determine look in their eyes.
As the groups leave towards their homes to prepare for their intense training. A robed figure watches from a nearby hill.
Soon Avenging Angel soon, you will face your equal soon you will face Yamata Dark Samurai horse man of Shi No Ishi Douhou whispered a revealed Yamata. As he watches his target with the calculation of a predator.
Timeskip 4 months later
Naruto had extensively and intensely trained Fuu and the Konohamaru corps in combat. Naruto had extensively trained them in Tekken (Iron Fist) an Academy Style Taijutsu with help from Iruka and Boxing.
At first Fuu and the others had asked why they had to learn these styles.
Naruto had explained that they are important to the fundamentals of the subject of hand-to-hand fighting in regards to footwork, precision and timing.
He had then moved on to more advanced styles for the group with the girls being taught Fanziquan a style of kung fu that has an emphasis on defensive and offensive movement with the practitioners hands while making good use of the users speed, and striking power, along with close combat judo for its adaptability and agility. Greatly improving and enhancing their combat effectiveness against any opponent in unarmed combat. Naruto also gave Fuu a Khanjar dagger. He had explained it's origins as a weapon for merchants, spies and desert assassins, along with explaining that he made the one he gave her more inconspicuous than its counterparts so she could hide it in a more concealable manner.
The boys on the other hand had been trained in a separate pair of styles. Konohamaru had been trained in Pao Chuan (Cannon fist), and Shotokan Karate. Greatly improving his skills in monkey fist giving him more balanced qualities of speed and strength.
Udon was trained in Kenpo and a refined style Drake had taught Naruto called Bartitsu. Giving him a devastating and efficient style for close quarters combat.
Naruto had also trained them in the use of jutsus and weapons. Fuu was trained by Naruto in Archery. Explaining that sense Chomei granted her the ability to fly she can use this as a bonus for her long-range tactics reasoning that she could use this to not only escape but use the bow and arrow to engage strictly close-range fighters. He had also taught her some fire and water jutsus making her offensive arsenal a deadly one against any attacker in her travels.
Naruto had trained the Konohamaru corps in weapons and jutsus fitting their respective roles. Konohamaru had been additionally coached in bojutsu by Naruto under the supervision of the Hokage who figured out the way to navigate the hell that is paperwork. Naruto also trained Konohamaru in Eskirma giving him skills in stick and bladed weapons combat, he also taught him fire, water, and earth jutsus for his role as his team's close combat powerhouse. Moegi, Naruto had trained in the use of the Sai along with water and wind jutsus completing her skills as an aggressive defensive and counteroffensive combat medic allowing her to effectively kill enemies in close range fighting. Udon had been trained in the dual wielding of the crossbow and combat knife effectively completing his role as long range support. He also learned wind jutsus from Naruto to round out his skills.
Naruto had also been in training himself after each session to improve upon his own fighting ability and technique. Practicing his combat skills, jutsus and tactics. Greatly refining his skills and tactics to new levels and mastering his jutsus to a point of being able to do one handed signs. He trained and developed his armed and unarmed fighting style to have the qualities of both a defensive fighter and a counter attacker.
At the moment Naruto is having a night fighting lesson with the team. In a 4 on 1 blindfolded battle.
Naruto is in the center holding a pugil stick with company surrounding him in different stances of their developed fighting styles.
They charge at him individually showcasing the fruits of their training under Naruto with their particular styles they had developed from the martial arts he taught them.
Udon using a more grounded weapons form that used better weapons handling, versatility of technique and exceptional footwork greatly keeping Naruto in check, While Konohamaru using a weapons form similarly to Udon's but in more of the Sarutobi clans weapon style mold is attacking with acrobatics. Moegi and Fuu blindsides him by landing a stick ball combo knocking him into a few trees, but he recovers and goes on the offense delivering attacks all four swiftly dodged. Naruto performs a cartwheel to evade a combination strike from both Udon and Fuu. However, he isn't able to react to a dual drop kick coming from both Konohamaru and Moegi. They get him at the point of their weapons. Naruto takes his blindfold off and says. " Alright you are ready for any situation. But don't forget to train everyday" Fuu lands in his lap and kisses him deeply. They break the kiss and Fuu takes off her blindfold and says "Well darling looks like you have given us the tools we needed. I thank you for our gifts" "Thank you Naruto" said the Konohamaru corps as they also take off their blindfolds and bows in thanks of their substitute teacher for his lessons.
The group then walk towards Ichiraku Ramen for lunch. Naruto could still remember the day when he goes to eat at their stall. After the Team 7's disbandment. Kakashi and Sasuke's trial.
Flashback 6 months ago
Naruto had walked into the Ichiraku Ramen shop to get some Ramen. Ayame, who was working the counter looked up to greet the customer that entered the stall until she sees him. She starts to blush at the site of the handsome blond not knowing it's Naruto. She then proceeds to ask, " What would you like to order" "The Usual Ayame chan" said Naruto as Ayame is confused and asks " Who are you and how do you know my name" asked Ayame as she is slightly creeped out by the handsome blond in front of her. " It's me Naruto Uzumaki" said Naruto as Ayame is shocked by this reveal. " No way your my Nii chan. Prove it." Demanded Ayame.
Naruto leaned over and whispered something in her ear that made her blush as only one person knows that secret about her that she told only one person.
"Naruto it is you what happened to you." Said Ayame a shocked as she looks at the blonde with both curiosity and awe.
"What's up with all the noise Ayame" said Teuchi Ichiraku as he walks into the front of his stall. Ichiraku sees Naruto and sees a ghost of the Yondaime right next to him.
"Okay this has got to be good." Said Ichiraku as he gets ready to hear everything he has to say.
Flashback end
Naruto had since revealed what happened to him in Wave country and how he was transformed into an Avenging Angel to the Ichiraku family and how he was trained by some of the greatest warriors ever to grace the art of war. They were in awe and shock at how Naruto was killed by his teammates and became an Avenging Angel. He also told them how he found love from 4 females in the form of a clansmen, another jinchuriki, and two bloodline users.
He also told them of how a large portion of the Haruno Clan had been exiled from the village for turning Sakura into a brainwashed sex slave.
At the moment the group is having a good time eating and laughing. Fuu and Naruto have a brief make out session until he heard. " Hey Naruto, long time no see" said a feminine voice.
Naruto turns to see Sakura with a ponytail, in an outfit that speaks in proper kunoichi. She has an impressive bust that ranges from C to C+ cup on a highly athletic frame. With her is a girl that had long beautiful brown hair in a dress that had both the practical sense of battle but also fashion sense of a civilian girl in the color of dark violet. She had an impressive bust on a body type and build similar to Sakura's but for more speed. "Ah Sakura how's it going. Oh, and who's your friend" said Naruto as he gestures to the girl right next to her. "Oh, this is my partner for the intelligence corps Akira Yoshimatsu. She's a top notch Kunoichi and expert in Taijutsu and Bukijutsu" said Sakura who gets a modest blush from the now revealed Akira.
"Hey Naruto, Nii chan how come you and Sakura are buddy-buddy when She had a hand in killing you" asked a curious Konohamaru as everyone except Sakura looks at him in confusion.
"I don't hold a grudge against Sakura as she was as much of a victim as me, her being made a breeding stock and a mindless fangirl." Answered Naruto who gets a respectful nod from everyone in the room.
"That's an admirable trait you have Uzumaki. I look forward to working with you someday. "said Akira as Naruto feels honored by the Kunoichi in front of her.
"So your angry with your parents Sakura" asked Ayame as she looks at her.
"Your dam right I am I just hope those pieces of shit for parents are dead" said Sakura getting a nod of agreement from everyone in the stall.
"So are you broken up about the Uchiha" asked Naruto
"No, I just hope he gets milked like the power-hungry bastard that he is. I hope Kakashi doesn't drop the soap. Replied Sakura as everyone laugh at the last part of the comment.
Everyone then relayed what's been going on with each other. Sakura had explained that her clan had ousted those apart of the plan that attempted to turn her into a sex slave against her will. She then went on to explain her clan has formed a new council that serves as a checks and balances system the checks the powers of both the elders and clan head. Akira explained that she's from a clan that focuses on training themselves to being well rounded and skilled fighters. Specializing in the field of Sora Budo (Sky Martial Way) that looks into military studies and science as well as the field of advanced and ancient martial arts. She then asked what martial arts Naruto knows from heaven. Naruto explained to her that he had been trained under masters of combat from different ages of human history itself. Each one of them taught him in fields of combat and warfare that's not only important to him as a ninja but also as a combatant in general.
As he was talking a girl with brown hair and lavender eyes in a light-yellow kimono with light violet painted textures listened in on the conversation hearing the blonde talk about the importance of innovation and personalization of one's fighting style. And that over adherence to tradition and form can get many killed on the battlefield. The Hyuga girl makes herself known to them. " Is that so" said the Hyuga girl as she looks at the Angelic blonde.
"Yes, innovation is an important necessity to any martial art even to modern styles that keeps the principles of traditional styles" replied Naruto as he looks at the young Hyuga girl.
"By the way miss I would like your name please" said Naruto as the young girl looks at him with a stoic look.
"Hanabi Hyuga sister of Hinata Hyuga. I already know who you are Naruto Uzumaki Namikaze." Said the now revealed Hanabi as she bows to him.
Hanabi had listened to Naruto continue to explain the importance of personalization and innovation. Reasoning that both are key to overcoming one's chosen martial forms weaknesses in combat if one should over rely on one's bloodline limit in battlefield combat. Pointing out the Hyuga clan's own form in actual combat is only good for a narrow scope in battle. Hanabi at first disagreed with this statement believing that it's a weakness to do so and an aberration to the style along with taking offense to his claim of her clans fighting form being narrow in combat. She had to make her statement true in a sparring session at the Namikaze dojo between her and Moegi in which she was caught off guard by Moegi's skill with Fanziquan and Judo unable to cope with her agility and adaptability as well as more fluid striking skills being unable to hit the girl with her Jyuuken as well as being outmaneuvered and out fought.
Moegi proceeds to execute a swift somersault right behind the Hyuga heiress and lands a leg sweep to the Hyuga fighting princess knocking her to the ground. Hanabi was surprised and slightly irritated that she lost to a common kunoichi who should be below her in fighting ability. Naruto then lectures her about real fighting and that anything goes in battle. Keeping to form can only be good for practice and training but in a real life and death battle a fighter has to be able to fight in a rhythmatic and non rhythmatic manner that gives one a level of unpredictability and fluidity but also give them a larger variety in battle that grants a higher level of survivability.
Deeply explaining that she sure enough has immense skill and talent but that means nothing on the battlefield. Using an object lesson to explain a major thing about personalization he pours out a bottle of water in front of her and explains that the water symbolizes Gentle fist's essence as a style and the bottle symbolizing the mold. Saying Gentle fist is only at it's best when it's beyond it's set mold.
Hanabi thinks hard on the lecture she was just given. As she gets up and bows to Moegi on the session greatly humbled by the lecture. The group goes their separate ways with Naruto and Fuu escorting Hanabi home. As they are doing this a figure in black armor stalks Konohamaru as he walks home. Before Konohamaru could get within range of his home he is suddenly grabbed by a blur that at the same time proceeds to throw a kunai with a note attached on it at the door of the Sarutobi estate.
Hanabi started a conversation about how the Hyuga elder council are very creepy and cold when anyone talks like Naruto does about over adherence and innovation saying it's nothing, but fools talk. But no one says a thing about it as those who do disappear mysteriously. With the branch Hyuga being the most common as they have been mistreated the most.
Naruto sensing something off about the Hyuga elder council as he senses some key similarities with the Spartan Society as they would oppress and murder their slave population to improve and test their fighting skills. Naruto thinking it's a good thing Richard the Lionheart taught him some history about a culture similar to his Richards own.
"So, Naruto what style of martial arts do you practice." Asked Hanabi as she and Fuu look at him in curiosity. Fuu who never really got a solid answer out of Naruto about his martial arts and fighting style. She has seen him practice these forms that he knows. But she has never got the chance to ask about them in question.
" Hmm well to answer you Hanabi my fighting style is the effective sophistication of brawling and street fighting with martial arts and spirituality. Originally, I had no definitive fighting style fighting pretty much on instinct and innate talent effectively making me a brawler and street fighter. However, what I lacked in refined technique and control. I made up with ferocity and determination. I was above someone like above the average clanless Genin but below that of Sasuke Uchiha and many clan heirs. After the wave mission I was planning to retrain in Taijutsu and Battle Tactics, maybe pick up some more jutsus. However, my death changed that plan drastically. But when I was given the chance of becoming an Avenging Angel. It kicked off a heavenly dream for any novice warrior. The masters that trained me had greatly gave me a polished and refined edge when it came to Individual Combat. As well as improved my ninjitsu arsenal. Teaching me fighting forms and spiritual techniques that turned my brawler and street fighter style into a style of fighting that would make me a martial artist in spirit and mindset." Explained Naruto as Fuu and Hanabi are in awe at the explanation. As they walk towards the Hanabi's home
Elsewhere in the hidden leaf
Tamashii is seen practicing his Windstorm fist and Avenger sword stance during the past couple of months Tamashii had also been thinking about how he and Naruto are a lot alike in situation. Both being resurrected warriors. Naruto by divine intervention and Tamashii by twisted science that turned his skin blue and gave him incredible physical fighting ability.
Flashback Namikaze compound.
Tamashii and Naruto are having a sparring session in the training field both greatly surprised how even they are in physicality with Tamashii having greater experience on his side. Tamashii is caught off guard with the type of sword his blond counterpart is using. As he has never seen a blade like it sure he's seen the double-edged sword Kusanagi of Orochimaru. But it was made for quick cuts, slashes, and swift thrusts. This sword was made for two handed heavy blade work.
"So Tamashii sama tell me about yourself " asked Naruto as he blocks a swing from Tamashii as he leaps back.
" Well to give you an understanding of myself. I'm similar to you in a way of meeting our maker." Said Tamashii as he executes a round house kick which Naruto dodges.
Naruto is caught off guard by the reveal in how he and Tamashii are two resurrected ninja that came back to life. Naruto then asks in a shocked tone as he gets into a blade lock with the man in front of him. "Are you too an Avenging Angel" " No I'm just an enhance resurrected warrior similar to you but not an angelic warrior like yourself I'm superhuman through the means of twisted science that involved the gutless coward Orochimaru who used me as a guinea pig for a large variety of experiments. He would have continued until the old man had exposed his work and fled the village with his tail between his legs. Explained Tamashii getting a sympathetic look from the blond. In a way both are a kindred spirits.
"So Tamashii what's your proposition " asked Naruto.
" We need someone like you for Guardian a special forces unit designated to deal with not only ninja operations but also operations against supernatural threats to the leaf and to the world." Explained Tamashii
"Why me" asked a curious Naruto.
" Well, you're the best candidate for the unit as not only are you a superhuman combatant. But also, an Avenging Angel, your arguably an ideal fighter I need against foes who would greatly injure or kill normal ninja in combat." Said Tamashii as he dodges a leg sweep from Naruto who thinks upon the offer.
" When do we start" said Naruto as Tamashii under his mask smiles at his agreement. As they collide with their swords. With Tamashii getting a slight cut on his mask and Naruto getting a cut on his ponytail's binding causing it to brake releasing his flowing hair.
Flashback end
Tamashii finishes the last sets of katas he thinks back to his life as Tomi Tsurugi a ferocious street fighter and highly trained mercenary. Thinking back to how he fought like a maverick all his life after the death of his father by a Eunuch when he was a young boy. He looks back at his maverick mercenary days remembering all of the thrills of fighting on the battlefield and in the street along with the one fight that began his new journey as the masked warrior he is today but also humbled him as a combatant and a human being.
Flashback 5 years in Amegakure
Tomi Tsurugi was standing over a group of Ame ninjas who was armed with swords, kunai, nunchaku, some wanting to go bare handed against him all on the group either beaten, dead or in between the two. Some of them chunin and even Jonin. Tomi walks away and thinks " Why does everyone think I'm an easy kill sure I may not be skilled in jutsus but I'm one of the toughest brawlers and high-class mercenary in the world I can fight with the best of the best" as he was walking through the streets, he has flashes of his childhood with his father and mother showing the happiness of a family. Also having flashes of the hellish path, he went through after a corrupt eunuch framed his father of killing his mother and seeing his execution. He was put through absolute hell from training under a warrior assassin sect of Sohei and training in his father's fighting style Windstorm fist. He then sees a final flash of him avenging his family by savagely killing the eunuch and his guards with his bare hands.
Suddenly a man with pale skin, long black hair, and golden serpent like eyes in a Konoha Jonin uniform walks towards him breaking him out of his thoughts. " (Sighs) what brings you here Orochimaru of the Sanin, watching street fights are certainly not your style." Said Tomi as Orochimaru chuckles. "I'm interested in you and your genetics. Tomi Tsurugi. You are an Apex fighter without the use of jutsus. No Chakra to enhance your strength and speed. Just naturally developed athletic ability that seems superhuman. I would like to study your natural athletic ability. If you don't mind " explained Orochimaru as Tomi senses lethal intent behind the request. "Yes, I do Orochimaru I have heard the rumors about the experiments you've been part of. I wouldn't want to be caught up with a lunatic scientist with a fascination for genomes and genetic experimentations" Said Tomi as Orochimaru gets offended by both the refusal and the insult about his genius being compared to a madman.
Before long a savage battle commences between the two. Orochimaru with the Kusanagi sword and Tomi with his own Katana the wind breaker. Both swordsmen trade sword and unarmed strikes with neither giving any ground. As the two fight a figure in the shadows readies a blow gun with a dart specially made by his master and aims it at Tomi. As the two break away from the close quarters fighting the figure with lethal accuracy shoots the dart at Tomi who was unable to see the dart coming is hit dead on in his throat. As he pulls out the dart, he begins to have slurred and blurry vision and loses feeling in his body. Slowly but surely, he is put in a unconscious state by the dart's fluid.
Timeskip 3 months in Konoha
During the last couple of months, Orochimaru had brutally experimented on the comatose Tomi pumping unknown experimental chemicals that should in theory make him even stronger and faster than before along with giving him incredible healing capabilities. However, before Orochimaru could see if the experimental treatments had worked on Tomi. Orochimaru hears an alarm go off and sees through the security camera footage that the Hokage and his Anbu had caught wind of his illegal experiments and decided to shut him down. Orochimaru collected all the data from his ongoing experiments and destroyed the rest. He then proceeds to pull the life support for Tomi so as to tie up any loose ends.
A squad of Anbu led by Neko moves through the lab stations to see if there is any survivors as they stumble upon a test tube holding a man who is struggling to breath Neko with swift reflexes and agility leaps over and cuts the tube open to release the man from the tube the man lays on the floor and begins to undergo a metamorphic process as he his skin color is becoming blue, his hair turning snow white, his physique being more athletic than original he finally begins to settle and looks at the team of ninja. He begins to say something and suddenly dies. The squad medic goes over to check on Tomi feeling no pulse from him. They are about to leave to search for any survivors. That is until they hear the cough sounds of the presumed Deadman right behind them.
"Hokage sama we have a live survivor from one of Orochimaru's experiments sir. An Adult male" Said Neko through a comms link in her mask as she looks at the blue skinned Tomi.
" Is he alright" asked Hiruzen through the comms link.
"Yes, Hokage Sama he's alright. At first, he had died from a possible heart attack but suddenly he came back to life. The medic is checking him over right now." Said Neko
" Have him evacuated to Anbu HQ and have him guarded and restrained. I have some questions for him regarding Orochimaru." said Hiruzen as Neko proceeds to give out orders to take Tomi to the Anbu HQ.
Flashback end
Days after the event he had met The Third Hokage who told him of where he was and how he was experimented on. Telling him how the enhancements temporarily killed and brought him back to life. Showing his skin being blue and his hair white. Tomi was absolutely pissed at Orochimaru for his tinkering of his being and making him a monster. However, a nurse reassured him of his newer condition as being a blessing than a curse and that it shouldn't go to waste. Hiruzen himself had offered Tomi a place in Guardian a special forces unit of the leaf village that is tasked with dealing with supernatural threats as well as threats of the Shinobi caliber and needed a tough guy for the job. Tomi thinks about how his life has been, from his father's execution to his career as a tough maverick mercenary to his life changing experience under Orochimaru's knife to dying and resurrecting.
From that day on Tomi had been inspired by his experiences decided to reinvent himself as an idealistic warrior that would fight for a worthy cause. He agreed and from that day on. That was the start of a man who became the legendary warrior ninja of Guardian Tamashii the Phantom Battling Swordsman.
Tomi at the moment thinks back to his youth starting off as a recruit. As well as how he earned his codename.
Flashback 5 years ago
Tomi is going through recruit training getting a feel on his enhanced abilities. Perform his gymnastic routines with the grace of a swan and lifting weights with the strength and endurance of a great ape and lion. Many of the female Anbu nins are blushing at his physical form and handsome face. Some of the males are in awe at his strength and endurance. "Hey Tomi, you're getting plenty of admirers from the female Anbu" said Bear as he points towards the females in the room. Neko paid no attention as she was in a relationship with Hayate Gekko the villages top notch swordsman.
"What else is new bear" said Tomi as he overheads a 4-ton ship engine with some effort.
"Here you go recruit" said Ryu as he hands him a mission dossier for an Alpine mission in fire country.
His first mission is to attack and exterminate a base camp full of imps and hobgoblins in the Alps of fire country. The mission was a learning experience of a lifetime as he had engaged the tenacious creatures with grit and steeled will. He fought and tour through the creatures in a savage frenzy with sword, shuriken, and his bare hands. After this mission he had went on to greatly improve his combat skill and fighting ability. He began taking on a large variety of opponents ranging from vampires, werewolves, demons, and other creatures in missions that took him to the deserts of Wind country, the Alps of Lighting country, the Urban city of Rain country and the Forests of Bear and Fire countries. He has battled them in missions in those areas and became a fierce and legendary warrior from those lethal missions.
Some of the witnesses of the battles had compared Tomi's performance and fighting prowess as a fighting spirit seeking revenge and thus the commander gave him his codename Tamashii for his tactics in surprise attack raids and ambushes.
Flashback ends.
Tamashii is suddenly broken out of his musings as an alarm goes off telling him there is a supernatural being in the village aside from Naruto. Tamashii goes and gets his armor and gear on. Getting ready for battle.
Back to Naruto
The group makes it towards the Hyuga compound to see Hiashi Hyuga along with the Third Hokage, Tsume Inuzuka, Hinata Hyuga, Inoichi Yamanaka, Shibi Aburame and Neko
"What's going on Jiji why everyone is here." Asked Naruto in a concerned tone.
"Naruto, Konohamaru has been abducted by an unknown assailant who's calling you out for a duel to the death. Here's a note" explained Hiruzen which shocks Naruto and his group. Naruto takes the note that suddenly triggers a booby trap that hits Naruto with a unique chakra blocking seal that limits his chakra output. Naruto is writhing in pain from it until it stops. He then reads the note telling him the location of the battle ground and that the seal will eat away at his chakra. Lastly telling Naruto his Identity as being Yamata elite warrior of the Shi No Ishi Douhou
"Naruto kun are you alright " asked Hinata as she looks at his tenketsu points seeing them being strained by the seal. Fuu also concerned moves towards Her blond love in worry
" This seal is the demonic consuming seal. It's a seal that's eating at my chakra reserves if I don't go to the battle ground and defeat Yamata I will die" said Explained Naruto as he gets up to his feet and walks towards the direction of his home.
"Naruto where are you going" asked Hiruzen in a concerned tone
"I'm getting my battle gear and armor on to face him" answered Naruto as Hinata and Fuu walk towards him." Let us help you fight him" said Hinata as Fuu nods in agreement. "No he would kill Konohamaru if anyone shows up with me I'll have to go alone. Don't worry Konohamaru will be safe I promise" said Naruto as he kisses both Hinata and Fuu on the lips and goes to get his battle gear and armor. " Good luck and Godspeed Heavenly Punisher" thought Hiruzen as he commands an Anbu team to look out for any other intruder in the village.
"Hanabi what where you doing with Naruto anyway." Asked Hiashi in curiosity.
"I was trying to figure out what make's Naruto so interesting to Hinata. I now see why. Said Hanabi as she looks at the angelic blond walking towards his home getting his weapons and armor on. She thinks about his lecture and takes it to heart.
He proceeds to travel to the location of the battle ground he mentally prepares himself for one of many of the toughest fights in his life. He reaches the battle ground a rocky terrain similar to Iwa only with slightly more foliage. He sees Konohamaru tied up and bound. He calls out" I'm here Yamata show yourself." Silence rains in the area "DO YOU FEAR ME WARRIOR OF THE DARK. FACE ME NOW!" shouted Naruto as silence continues to rain until the dark warrior appears a distance away.
"I'm here Namikaze, free your protégé and face me Avenging Angel if you dare." Said Yamata as. Naruto moves to free Konohamaru slowly sensing no danger from the bindings he frees Konohamaru and tells him to run to safety. As he does so the herculean of a Samurai stands before Naruto towering over him. "So, the avenging angel. Finally, we meet. Now prepare to die! " said Yamata in a tone that would send shivers down a normal man's spine. As he draws his massive sword and gets into his battle stance Naruto doing the same. Before long the winds picked up and a wolf howl starts arguably one of the most brutal battles in shinobi and samurai history as both Naruto and Yamata began to clash demonstrating skill and refinement of both warriors.

As they are battling Konohamaru had stayed behind to witness such a fierce battle. As the two continue in fierce combat.
Naruto and Yamata manage to disarm each other of their respective sword. The two then begin to engage in fierce hand-To-hand combat. Yamata is his fighting like a trained brawler and savage, but Naruto is fighting like a hand-to-hand combatant should. Fighting with refined skill and honed instinct. Using effective combinations of punches and kicks while mixing them up to wear down the dark warrior. Yamata goes into his berserkers' rage and tries to adapt to the blonde warrior. But he is unsuccessful with his endeavors as he is being outmaneuvered and out fought by the angelic warrior who's using the forms of Fanziquan, Judo, Kenpo, Tekken, Boxing, Pao Chuan, Bartitsu, Kajukembo, and Hapkido using all of the techniques and tactics to do some serious damage to the warrior of the dark landing combination and hits that Yamata has no answers for. Yamata having enough of the battle of skill transforms into his dark dragon state and starts to batter the young blonde around the arena. Naruto is struggling to get up to fight the dark dragon.
However, before the bestial dark dragon could land the finishing blow. Naruto starts to glow illuminating the night in a bright light. As the light dies down Naruto appears to be permeating with pure ethereal energy of a sort. He leaps for his sword and gets ready for an even fiercer battle against the Dark Dragon.
The battle is getting wilder by the minute. Konohamaru is in shock at the battle at hand. A hand grabs his shoulder and pulls him away from the expanding battle area he looks up to see his grandfather and Tamashii along with the clan heads of the Inuzuka, Hyuga, Aburame , Akimichi and Yamanaka as they look on with awe at the battle at hand.

Naruto with the speed and skill of an assassin lunges at Yamata and with enough strength and technique he cut Yamata in half with a single strike of his sword. Before the Dark warrior dies, he says his last word in his dying breath." Agh you may have beaten me Avenging Angel, but you will face more warriors of the Shi No Ishi Douhou.

Chapter 4 end
Sorry, everyone for taking too long I'm starting to have a writer's block I hope to make some more chapters lengthier than before.
Author's notes: Hanabi is not going to be part of the harem. She is however going to become a student of Naruto, while he follows a lead on the disappearances of several Hyuga members. The Hyuga and Spartan cultures have similarities with the treatments of their slaves and their refusal of change and innovation keeping to a ridged tradition that brought nothing but trouble. While also being some of the most fearsome fighters in history they are the most linear and dangerously predictable. Naruto's fighting style is deeply rooted within street fighting oriented martial arts such as Kajukembo, Bartitsu, Hapkido, and several others to be revealed.
