Chapter 171: Chapter 171 : Facing Sasuke 2 (Rewrite)
"Guys stay focused. Someone is here. Someone dangerous." The clone said and others also became vigilant.
Soon the person who the clone felt came out.
The clone looked at this person and his eyes narrowed.
He saw a person wearing Akatsuki Clothes. He was also wearing an Orange masked as well.
"Obito" clone mutters and sighs.
"What with this guy? How come when I fight with Orochimaru every time he appears like a Gin" Clone was thinking.
"Kirito Namikaze. No, you are just a mere clone" Obito said.
"Same kind which killed your once" Clone taunted.
"Kirito you know this guy" Shikamaru asked.
"He is a member of Akatsuki. A very tricky guy to be honest. This guy actually attacked me in the chunin exam." the clone said.
Actually, he wanted to take all the members out of there. Another problem is that Orochimaru looked towards his team just a little while ago and now Obito has come here. Is Obito and Orochimaru working together?
"I still haven't gotten my revenge about that time," Obito said.
"Well currently the real me is busy but I don't think that I need to tell you that. So I am afraid that you have to settle with a mere Clone for the time being" Clone teased.
Obito at this did not say anything. Clone also sense and there was it. His seal which he placed all that time ago was still active on Obito.
But it's weird that he was not able to sense him earlier from Konoha. Maybe his sensing range is not enough. Or Obito's other dimensional power is interfering.
"It was Konoha who killed the Sasori and Deidara. Who did it" Obito asked without any nonsense.
'Hmm well, it's not a secret that Konoha killed Two Akatsuki members. They in fact openly announce it if they sell their bodies to the underground market.
Well, actually Kirito never sold it. He exchanged the body for the money and then quickly used the flying thunder god to take the body back behind the merchant's back.
He was a cheat, so what? There is a reason he has so much money at this young age.
"Yeah, so what" Clone asked.
"Who did it" Obito asked.
"A Konoha Ninja. Why you care" Clone replied.
While this banter was going on, Shikamaru was planning with Choji and Sakura to take down the Akatsuki member in front of them.
Back to the real Kirito.
"Wood Style. Deep Forest Emergence" Sasuke internally mutters and then slams his hands to the ground.
From Kirito's side, a powerful wave of fire was rushing towards the upcoming Forest.
Kirito's eyes widen not only after seeing Wood style from Sasuke but also the outcome of the collision of his combination of Jutsu and wood style attack.
The upcoming forest was badly damaged and was set on fire but it still continued to advance towards Kirito.
"This guy is still as troublesome as always," Kirito mutters under his breath.
"Wind Style Rasen Shuriken," Kirito said to himself, forming a dangerously rotating ball of wind chakra.
Sasuke Mangekyo narrowed at this and Orochimaru too narrowed his eyes from the distance he was watching this fight.
"This Jutsu Again" Orochimaru mutters in a deep voice. Kirito in the there previous fight actually used this Jutsu against him and thus he knows the power of this attack.
Kirito then against Sasuke's common sense, threw the attack towards the upcoming forest.
The terrible sounding and looking ball of wind immediately showed its magic and started cutting all the wood forming on its path when it reached the centre of the emerging forest. It detonated.
Expanding, it created a huge dome of wind and obliterated all the wood in the sounding area. Even the ground was not spared.
This time it was Sasuke's turn to widen his eyes. He was also breathing a little hard as he did not have enough chakra to maintain a powerful wood-style chakra like Hashirama Senju.
Sasuke gritted his teeth.
He rushes toward Kirito once again. Again taking out his sword he used his fast power and directly targeted Kirito's neck.
"Water Divider" Kirito shouted and then a powerful sword energy rushed toward Sasuke.
Not having any other choice Sasuke dodge.
"Amaterasu" Sasuke said and Kirito's hair instantly stood up feeling the danger coming.
With a simple thought, he replaced himself with a log. Soon the log was surrounded by black flames.
"Those eyes are complete Cheat" Kirito cursed.
"Wind Style, Tornado" Kirito then suddenly thought of something and immediately formed hand signs.
The wind soon started to follow Kirito's command and started to rotate.
Kirito intentionally targeted the burning log. And just like he expected. His wind tornado picked up the black flames.
"Here take these flames back" Kirito shouted and then the tornado burning with black flames moved towards Sasuke.
Sasuke's eyes widen.
He tried to control his fire but the winds were too strong to do so.
He gritted his teeth and poured chakra into his eyes as fast as he could.
Kirito noticed suddenly the chakra around Sasuke changed and a purple ribcage appeared around Sasuke.
"Susanoo" Kirito knew this Jutsu. But the initial stage won't save Sasuke. He needs at least the incomplete version to protect himself.
And there it was. Soon the Purple ribcage spread and a skeleton appeared. When the Skeleton was covered with muscle clothes and armour. Soon the entire upper portion of Susanoo was formed.
And then the Black Flames tornado smashed into the Susanoo.
The entire Susanoo was covered in black flames.
After the violent wind was gone, only Sasuke was able to control the black flames and remove them from the Susanoo.
"Ku Ku ku ku ku. This fight is getting more and more interesting. After implanting Lord First's cell and opening Sasuke's Mangekyo Sharingan. I never thought that anyone would be his opponent. But Kirito Kun once again submerged my views on him.
No wonder he was the only other candidate on my list besides Sasuke Kun. Shame how he does not have a Sharingan." Orochimaru thought and laughed.
Chapter 172: Chapter 172 : Facing Sasuke 3 (Rewrite)
And then the Black Flames tornado smashed into the Susanoo.
The entire Susanoo was covered in black flames.
After only the violent wind was gone, Sasuke was able to control the black flames and remove them from the Susanoo.
At this time Kirito was standing in front of a 50-meter tall Susannoo appear. In front of That Susanoo which was staring at Kirito like a god. Kirito himself looks like an ant.
Taking out a Kunai. Kirito immediately drew his blood and then threw it upwards.
"Summoning Jutsu" Kirito shouted.
Although there was a need to shout he liked doing so. Especially because he knew that once he did that Sasuke would focus on the place he is and not the kunai is throw.
And just that happened. Sasuke did even give attention to the kunai thrown by Kirito.
Maybe because he was in the Susanoo, he thought that Kirito even if he used Hirashin couldn't touch himself. But That is not why Kirito threw the kunai.
Kirito instantly appeared where the kunai was and then the summoning activated.
A 40-meter-tall toad was suddenly fall on the Susanoo. The weight was enough to temporarily immobile the Susanoo
Before the big toad says anything. Kirito was already moving.
"Let me show you my Hero Punch" Kirito said and then Haki was covered in his fist. Chakra was compressing inside.
He vanishes and appears in front of the Sasanoo and then.
"Ora Ora Ora Ora" Kirito said but he only delivered one punch. At this time even Star Platinum Might be rolling his eyes on Kirito.
But name and antics aside. It was a mighty fine punch.
"Boom".
The Susanoo crack and then like a shattered mirror it collapse on itself.
"What" Sasuke could not help but exclaim.
Even Orochimaru from the side had wide eyes.
"Tsuande's chakra infuse punch. How many tricks does these kid know" Orochimaru was seriously asking this question himself.
Sasuke was smashed out and was sent flying.
"Yup, who needs Rasengan if you can just fucking punch the enemy to death," Kirito thought to himself.
But he knew that this was possible because of Haki. If he was able to add Haki to his Rasengan then maybe Rasengan might be the strongest technique in his arsenal.
Sasuke although was hit but was not hit hard enough that he was wounded.
Kirito wanted to directly attack and end the fight but at this time a loud voice came.
"Brat, why did you summon me here" Gamabunta shouted.
"Nothing nothing, you can go back now. I will explain later" Kirito said and totally disregarded Gamabunta and directly went towards Sasuke.
Sasuke too was ready at this time. Although his powerful Jutsu just failed that does not mean that he cannot win.
But he still has not given his all.
"Good Good. You are a worthy Opponent. I will show you my true power. Let me show you the real power of a Uchiha" Sasuke roared stopping the Kirito in his tracks.
Actually, Kirito stopped because suddenly the chakra around Sasuke started to change.
Kirito noticed black markings started to spread around Sasuke. First, it was only the right section of the body but then it started mutating and then the markings completely took over Sasuke.
Soon the entire body started to change and Sasuke's appearance started to look like a demon. His skin became dark and there was a star mark in the middle of his face.
Kirito kept looking and could only say that this might be the first transformation he had seen since he came to this world. It was pretty gross.
"I am thinking of a way to make fun of your look but can't come up with anything besides saying that after this all those fan girls of yours won't be chasing you any more" Kirito said.
But internally he sensed the improved power Sasuke had. He narrowed his eyes and decided that he needed to stop holding if he really wanted to defeat Sasuke here. Especially with this curse formed and Mangekyo.
Another fight was about to start where Kirito's clone were.
The clone and Obito stare at each other and gotten ready.
Obito, the masked man, stood on one side, his Sharingan glowing ominously beneath his mask. Clone stood on the other side with Shikamaru, Choji, and Sakura, ready to support him in this battle.
"So, you really think you can stand against me, Clone? You're just a mere shadow of the real," said Obito
"That remains to be seen ." the clone replied.
As the tension reached its peak, Clone made the first move. He charged at Obito with incredible speed, his fists crackling with chakra. He can't use haki but that does not mean that he can't use chakra-infused punches. Obito reacted quickly, summoning his Kamui to dodge Clone's attack. But Clone was relentless. He split into several Shadow Clones, surrounding Obito from all sides.
The clone was not saving Chakra at this time. He needs to find an opening to take out his team from here.
Obito activated his Sharingan and countered with swift strikes, attempting to dispel Clone's clones one by one. Shikamaru analyzed Obito's movements, looking for an opening.
"Choji, we need to think strategically. Keep an eye on Kirito's Clone and Sakura. I've got a plan." Shikamaru whispers.
As the battle raged on, Clone and Obito clashed with incredible force. Choji transformed, charging at Obito with an enlarged fist. Obito narrowly avoided the attack but found himself cornered as Shikamaru used his Shadow Possession Jutsu to bind him temporarily.
Clone saw his opportunity. With a rasengan charged in his hand, he rushed towards Obito. Obito tried to evade but was still partially bound by Shikamaru's shadow. The rasengan struck Obito, causing a massive explosion. Smoke filled the air, obscuring everyone's vision.
"Impressive, but you underestimate me," Obito said. He immediately activated Kamui before he suffered any damage himself.
"This time around this guy is playing pretty calm. It will be hard to fool him" Clone thought.
Obito activated his Kamui and disappeared, reappearing behind Clone. He struck Clone with a powerful kick, sending him flying. Good thing that Kirito's clones are tougher. Clone just gained his balance and stopped himself.
Sakura rushed to Clone's side, subconsciously wanting to heal his injuries but that not how shadow clones work.
"We can't keep this up forever. Choji, try to immobilize him with your enlarged fists, and Sakura, prepare to strike when he's distracted." Shikamaru said.
Choji nodded, transforming again, while Sakura focused her chakra. Clone, determined not to fail, gathered his strength and charged once more. Choji's attack distracted Obito, giving Sakura the opportunity she needed.
"Chaaaaa" Sakura shouted and then there was a crater afterwards. But again the attack did not even touch Obito.
Clone spun around, delivering a powerful Rasengan to Obito's chest. But again it was pointless.
"Need to take out this guys from here. I better work fast" Clone thought.
Chapter 173: Chapter 173 : Facing Sasuke 4 (Rewrite)
Kirito at this time was watching atotally demonised Sasuke watching him like he was the prey here.
Kirito looked serious and waited for anything Sasuke threw towards himself.
But then his instincts were like screaming at him and then Sasuke disappeared from his place. Kirito's eyes widen.
Sasuke was surrounded by lightning and his movements at this time were almost as fast as Kirito's.
"Shit" Kirito mutter and immediately dodge a powerful punch coming towards him.
"What the fuck. This curse seal comes with a speed buff attachment" Kirito complained and also totally blasted his Hyper Speed technique and matched Sasuke's speed.
For the first time after Raikage, Kirito found someone who matched his speed if he was not counting Hirashin.
"Smash" the fist collided and a huge shock wave was created.
Kirito at this time was thrown backwards unlike Sasuke who was just standing in his place.
"Damn, that hurts" Kirito cursed shaking his fist.
"Damn this cursed seal.
Guess I have to use Sage mode here. At first, I thought that I would be bulling Sasuke if I used Sage mode but maybe now I might lose if I don't use it." Kirito mutters with an agitated expression.
Sasuke did not think too much and directly launched another attack towards Kirito. But his Mangekyo Sharingan caught a strange marking suddenly appearing on Kirito's face.
He did not care. Power Corrupts and this was true even in the case of Sasuke.
He did not think too much and only rushed forward to attack Kirito.
"I have enough of you," Kirito said and made a fist.
The fist immediately turned black and then chakra started to gather in the fist.
Kirito just wanted to blast off Sasuke but then suddenly realized just how powerful this punch would be and that he might kill Sasuke at this so he stopped.
Normal punches with Haki or Chakra infuse punches are powerful and deadly for normal people. But for someone like Sasuke, he can handle it.
Well Kirito's handle it, meaning that he won't directly explode and die.
But Sage mode with Haki is totally different. He now after this much time of training knows that these two training sessions do not add power but rather multiply it.
In fact, he is sure that just adding Haki to the sage mode is enough to cause real damage to even six path-level characters.
If he adds Chakra infuse punches on top of that.
He might be able to exert force, close to what Guy was able to achieve with his 7th gate open. Maybe even the 8th gate if he compares the power to a normal punch from a guy at that stage.
Kirito immediately stopped himself.
So when Sasuke came with a Chidori, aiming at his heart. Kirito just sighed and decided to do this in the traditional way.
Making a rasengan he pushes his hand forward.
But he was still in the sage mode.
"Big Ball Ragengan" Kirito smirked and both techniques collided.
In terms of power alone, Kirito had enough advantage. Soon both the attacks detonated and this time around Sasuke was sent flying backwards.
"Honestly, that felt pretty good. Rasengan and Chidori is such a classic. Almost like Kamehameha and Galic Gun colliding" Kirito smirk and rush forward.
Orochimaru at this time was amazed at the level of fight that was happening. It's not like he has not seen a fight at this level but only from someone much older.
How old is Sasuke and Kirito. 15 years old. This is just mind-boggling.
Sasuke who was blown away by the explosion, immediately regained his balance and then started pouring chakra on his eyes.
Kirito saw once again a purple giant forming.
"This again" Kirito could not help but mutter.
"Fine then, let end this long draw fight already." Kirito thought to himself and then started drawing his chakra.
He then with all this power jump high.
While this was happening, on the other side the fight between Obito and the clone was also going on.
Clone almost lost 80% of his chakra and started to worry. Being a shadow clone he did not have enough charka in the first place.
To take his team out of here he at least needs 15% chakra and that too when he is not targeting Konoha but a place much closer to the fight.
"Can't wait any longer. I don't sense the fight ending on the other side any time soon. Need to take my team out" Clone thought.
But he was also interested to know what exactly going on here. Why is Obito here? Why suddenly attack them?
There is no reason for Obito to attack them. Maybe because Kirito is there but still there is no need for going after a clone. He can just go after the real Kirito.
Clone really wants to know the answers to this question. But right now was not the time to think about those.
Clone took out a smoke bomb and smashed it.
The moment the smoke covered Obito's vision. Clone directly uses all of its remaining chakras to launch Hirashin and after making sure that he takes Sakura, Shikamaru and Choji. He launched the flying thunder god technique immediately.
Instantly all four of them appear far away from the Tenchi Bridge area and then suddenly because of getting out of chakra. The clone pops.
"Hmm guess we are safe," Choji said.
"But Kirito is now fighting Sasuke, Orochimarua and that Akatsuki member alone," Shikamaru said and others also became serious at this.
sorry for the small chapter. No time to write anymore today. I will try to make the next chapter a little bigger if possible.
Chapter 174: Chapter 174 : Time To End This Mission (Rewrite)
Kirito saw once again a purple giant forming.
"This again" Kirito could not help but mutter.
"Fine then, let's end this long drawn-out fight already." Kirito thought to himself and then started drawing his chakra.
He then with all this power jump high.
"Massive Big Ball Rasengan" Kirito shouted. For the first time, I poured more than necessary amount of chakra into a Rasengan. Next a Rasengan which was almost half the size of the incomplete Susanoo that Sasuke created and by the way was much stronger than the previous Susanoo thanks to the cursed seal, rushed towards Sasuke.
Sasuke saw this and directly activated his Amaterasu fire and targeted the big ball Rasengan.
Kirito saw this and launched Hirashin. Before the fire even reached Rasengan. Kirito immediately vanishes from his place thanks to Hirashin and then appears behind the Susanoo.
Then Susanoo suddenly crashes with a powerful grinding force.
"Ahh" Sasuke gritted his teeth and poured more and more chakra into the Susanoo as possible.
Kirito smirks at that and then also introduces wind chakra to the massive Rasengan.
It was like a hot knife cutting butter.
No matter what Sasuke was not able to handle the powerful Rasengan.
And when being in the Sage mode. It was just too easy for Kirito to make his Rasengan even more powerful and bigger.
Simply he has enough chakra to keep going for another hour and so.
But it did not take an hour. Only a second after the contact the entire Susanoo started to grind and shatter in the end.
Kirito did not want to kill Sasuke here so he did not attack Sasuke with that massive chakra. He just appears in front of Sasuke and then delivers a sharp punch without any additional add-ons. But the sage mode power was still there.
It was enough to knock Sasuke out who had already exhausted almost all of his chakra.
"Sucker Punch Baby" Kirito smirk. And then looked towards Orochimaru.
He was expecting that Orochimaru would act. So he was very cautious of him.
"Ku ku ku you have become a lot stronger than I expected Kirito Kun," Orochimaru said after coming closer to Kirito and Sasuke.
"So do you want to fight me now" Kirito asked
He was still looking at Orochimaru while doing this. Orochimaru after seeing this just gave a smile and also looked a little helpless.
" There is no point in taking Sasuke Kun from here. He is already a missing-nin. What the point" Orochimaru said.
"The village still has not declared him a missing-nin" Kirito replied.
"Then I guess a fight is unavoidable," Orochimaru said.
Kirito was ready to fight Orochimaru too but he suddenly sensed a distortion in space.
Kirito immediately jumped and then there was a swirling circle where Kirito was standing there previously.
"Obito" Kirito mutters to himself but before he can do anything. A hand came out and grabbed Sasuke.
"Shit" Kirito muttered and wanted to rush but it was already too late.
Sasuke at this time was already inside the swirling distortion of space. If he does anything at this time then he might even kill Sasuke.
"I am gonna kill this troublesome guy one of these days," Kirito thought to himself.
Orochimaru saw this because he was a member of the Akatsuki previously. He knew about this ability before.
His eyes widen. He still wanted to take control of Sasuke's body so seeing Sasuke being taken away in front of his own eyes really made him angry.
"Man, I did put a Hirashin Seal on Sasuke but I can't sense him. Meaning that the seal is either not in this dimension or not in the range of my sensing capabilities." Kirito thought to himself.
"Man, now there is no way to take Sasuke," Kirito muttered and then looked back towards Orochimaru.
"Well one part of the mission is to take care of Uncle Orochi right" Kirito thought and was about to attack but then he realised that Orochimaru was already gone by this time.
"Tck. Nothing is easy nowadays." Kirito wanted to follow Orochimaru but he also sensed that his team was not there.
"Guess I need to find them first" Kirito thought and instantly vanished from his place.
2 days later
[Kirito POV]
After failing the mission we finally came back to the village. The first thing we had to do was to give the entire report.
"So you want to say that Sasuke is already an elite Jonin or borderline Kage-level Shinobi" Tsunade sounded astonished.
"Yeah. But that was not the reason I was not able to bring him back. The real reason is Akatsuki." I replied without any delay.
"Akatsuki" Tsunade sounded more surprised.
Then it took more time to explain what exactly happened. Not only from my side but from also Shikamaru, Choji and Sakura's side.
It took some time but finally, it was done.
After I was done reporting, the second place I went was directly to the Hospital to find out how Asuma was doing.
Tsunade really is worthy to be the best doctor in the current era. She fixes him up real quick.
After my talk with Asuma was done.
I ended up going to the top of the Hokage monument. I just wanted to think a little about the current situation of the world.
I was not sure but slowly I felt that this world was turning from normal difficulty to hard difficulty.
Sasuke was never supposed to learn lightning armour like Raikage. But he did and this is most likely because of me. He might have learned that because he wanted to handle my speed.
He was able to go toe to toe with me when it came to speed today.
Not to mention, there is also that Mangekyo. In the anime, Sasuke only got that after killing Itachi.
But here he has Mangekyo, most probably because he implanted Hashirama's cell inside him. Then there is the wood style.
How does the story change like this? I could not help but wonder.
After spending some time on the top of the Hokage Monument. I finally made up my mind.
"I need to quickly complete this damn system," I mutter to myself and then spread my senses.
My goal was to find a man who could help me.
The moment I sense him.
I saw a man practising some intense training.
"Guy sensei, I wanted to talk with you," I said.
The guy suddenly stopped his training and then suddenly looked towards me.
"Ghosh Kirito kun. Why are you suddenly here" Guy asked.
I just bowed and then asked.
"Please train me in Taijutsu," I said.
Chapter 175: Chapter 175 : Let Get Strong Together (Rewrite)
"Gosh Kirito kun. Why are you suddenly here" Guy asked.
I just bowed and then asked.
"Please train me in Taijutsu," I said.
And the rest is history guys.
After this many years in Konoha, I am pretty aware of Guys personality. If a fellow Konoha Junior wants help from him then there is no way that he is not gonna help.
So from that point onwards, my training in Taijutsu began.
"So we are fighting first" I was a little excited to see whether I could improve the template by learning Taijutsu.
I am not sure why the last time when fought against Guy my template was updated by one point but if it's possible then I would like to upgrade it as fast as possible.
"No no. We need to first make our body strong. The most important part of Taijutsu is the body. Here wear this and lap around the village 20 times" The Guy hands over weights.
Oh man, don't tell me that I have to train like Lee before fighting with Guy.
"Hmm, Guy Sensei. I was expecting to fight with you and get a little more experience in Taijustu".
"Called me Guy. Now we are colleagues." Guys said with a trade mark smile.
Well, I understand what he is saying. I am also a Jonin right now so it makes sense.
"Hmm okay," I said and then waited before he said anything about my question but he did not.
I just sighed internally put the weights on and started my laps.
It took me 10 minutes to complete the 20 laps. I say it's pretty okay considering the size of the village.
"Gosh, you are already done. Great." The guy sounded excited.
"Now how about you do another 20 laps but this time in 5 minutes" Guys said and went back to his training.
I just kept staring at him, trying to pressure him to say a little more and actually fight with me but he did not even notice that I was standing.
I shook my head and started another 20 laps.
"Why the hell I am doing this? If it's just Taijustu then there are other people whom I can fight and gain experience. Kakashi, Asuma and even Jiraiya will do" I thought to myself but in the end, I ended up completing the 20 laps he told me to do.
Within 5 minutes I was done.
"Done" I almost shouted at his face.
"Great, that was a good warmup. Remember, before starting the training a good warm-up is very important" Guy said.
My eyes twitch at that.
Man do you really hear yourself? 40 rounds around the village in under 15 minutes is only a warm-up.
"Alright then let's start with the training,"
"Here about I give you My special ninja Taijutsu Jumpsuit. It's elastic and breathable" Guy said showing the same green jumpsuit he and that disciple of his wears every day.
My mouth widened a little bit but then I quickly closed it and then used my strongest technique to get out of this situation.
"That I would love to Guy sensei but these clothes suit my fighting style well. I am not just a Taijutsu master like you and Lee. If I were then this tracksuit is perfect but my particular fighting will be restricted by this" I said.
See Bullshit No Jutsu in its full glory.
"Oh that's a shame, but don't worry my young friend, we will fill this gap with the passion of our youth" Guys shouted.
And here it is. I was wondering why there is no mention of the Youth by now.
[5 hours later]
I am going back home. I am not sure how I am alive after that hellish training but somehow I am alive.
No the more important question I need to ask is how the hell those two are still alive.
But honestly, I did not have enough energy to think about this either.
5000 push-ups.
5000 Sit-ups
5000 squads.
Another 100 laps around the village.
And many many more exercises whose name I don't even know. I am just happy that I am alive.
By the time I reach home. I found Naruto there. He had a serious face like he was thinking about something.
"So what's going on"
"Ah Kirito's, I wanted to ask you something" Naruto looked at me like he was really thinking about something.
It's a hard thing to let Naruto think about something let alone this seriously.
"What".
"I, I just completed a mission with Kakashi sensei. This was my first mission after a very long time.
I found that I am not that strong really" Naruto said in a dejected manner.
"I mean Pervy sage teaches me a lot but I am not seeing it. You are already a Jonin. I am still a genin." Naruto said in a down tone.
This was the first time I am seeing him comparing himself with me. It's pretty natural that siblings compare themselves and then try to out-match each other but in Naruto, I never saw this.
He is just too positive all the time to think about all these things. So how come suddenly today this brother of mine is thinking about this?
"I mean you were able to defeat me with Sakura Chan, Ino and Haku combined. You even beat Kakashi sensei, Kurenai Sensei, Asuma sensei and even Pervy Sage did not fight with you in the Jonin test." Naruto kept going and the more he talked the more desperate he sounded.
"Compared to you I do not see any difference in my strength".
"I"
"I also heard about Sasuke from Sakura Chan and Ba Chan. They said that he too is almost as strong as you" Naruto almost sounded like a kicked puppy.
But my eyebrows twitch at the last comment. As strong as me. Please.
I saw that Naruto going to talk more but he was not exactly saying what he really wanted to. Maybe this is because of the power gap that he suddenly saw between himself and Sasuke.
To this date, Naruto never compared himself with me. His own brother. He just accepted that I was better. There was no competition and honestly, I never liked this laid-back attitude of his.
I wanted him to be competitive so that he train harder and get stronger faster. This is one of the major problems I was facing. Naruto actually had no one to compare to. And compete against.
Meaning he was not getting as strong as he should have. Definitely not a good thing for the future.
But finally he is showing some interest. Finally, I have a chance to make the real main character strong.
There was a little smirk already forming in the corner of my mouth.
Maybe this destiny shit is real. If one son of destiny is getting stronger. Another one just can't stay still.
" You get it right. You know I just wanted to ask" Naruto was still going on so I just stopped him.
"You want to get stronger and need my help to train you. Is that it" I directly said what he wanted to say.
Hearing me he suddenly looked a little stunned and then there was a bright smile on his face and nodded.
"Okay, meet me tomorrow in training ground 10," I said with a smile and went to my bed.
I did not wait to see but there was a mega-watt smile on Naruto's face.
Chapter 176: Chapter 176 : Rasengan And Taijutsu (Rewrite)
Konohagakure No Sato
Training Ground 10.
"Alright Brother, as you said you need me to train you. Before I do that I first have to fix things which are already wrong with you" I said with as much patience as I muster for my knuckle-headed brother to understand.
"Ah, what's wrong with me? Nothing needs fixing" Naruto said with a confused expression.
"Well, for the time being, we are going to start with the most common mistake"
After saying I raised my hand and soon a Rasengan was forming on the top of my palm.
"You see that. Now you do it too" I asked.
"What, that's just a normal Rasengan. I know that it's A rank Jutsu but still, it's not enough" Naruto said with a dejected tone.
"Just do it".
"Okay okay" Naruto pouted and instantly made a shadow clone. He was about to make a Rasengan but I took out my sword and swung directly towards him.
pop. The clone blasted.
"Hey what are you doing" Naruto shouted.
"I said to make a Rasengan. Not a clone."
"That's what I was doing genius"
Naruto said with an exaggerated tone and made another clone.
The clone went to Naruto and started making a Rasengan. But just before Rasengan was about to create, I swung my sword again.
Pop.
"Okay, now you are doing this on purpose. You want a fight" Naruto shouted.
"I said just to make a Rasengan. Not a clone. Make a Rasengan without clone" I repeated trying to be patient.
"What but I can't do that" Naruto shouted irritated.
"Then don't you think that this needs fixing brother? You are not only wasting chakra here but also the important time during a fight.
Every time you want to make a Rasengan, you first need to make a clone which will take you to make the handsigh. Take both of your hands. Then you have to match the chakra of your clone with yours to make a Rasengan. Not to mention if both of you are in motion then this is even more troublesome and inconvenient.
Lastly, as you can see. If something happens to your clone midway then you won't be able to use Rasengan until you waste more chakra and time to make another clone. It's ineffective" I said.
But looking at him, I knew that he was not taking this seriously.
"What but what is the point? I can use the Rasengan in the end right." Naruto replied and I only nodded.
"Okay then. Make a Rasengan and attack me. And I will do the same."
"Huh, but why" he asked not understanding what was going on here.
"Do it and you will understand?" I said still in a plain tone.
"Okay".
"Shadow clone Jutsu" Naruto said and another clone appeared beside him but he froze with the clone.
He looked in front of him and saw a Rasengan already in front of his face and if only he so much so moved a little forward. His face will be ground into cheez Kawab.
"What happened? I thought that the way you make Rasengan works for you. Then how come I was just about to kill you? Why not face my Rasengan with a Rasengan of your own?
Let me guess. Because you are slow" I said.
Naruto gulped but still said.
"But that that not fair. Of course, you are fast. You are currently the fastest Shinobi in the village." He complained and I sighed.
"Yes, I am faster than you. But that is not the point here. The point is that you are not as fast as you can be. And the reason is your imperfect way of making a Rasengan. Don't you think that you can save a lot of time by just learning how to make the Rasengan with one hand" I asked.
After thinking a little, my knuckle-headed brother finally nodded.
"Great, now make 300 clones".
"Huh, clones. Why clones".
"Because that's how I am going to teach you. Did you forget the shadow clone training method I taught you before".
"Ah, no no I remember. Okay, here we go. Time to finally get stronger" Naruto shouted.
"Shadow clone Jutsu".
Soon there was almost 300 clone in the clearing.
"Good. Here take this" I throw a scroll towards one of the clones.
"what's this" Ask many clones at the same time.
"That scroll has enough balloons and balls for you to start training on single-hand Rasengan from the ground up. Now start doing".
"Okaaaaaayyy" a loud shout came from all the clones and then fist pump high in the air.
I smile and immediately catch the real Naruto who is about to go with the rest of his clones for the Rasengan practice.
"No that's training is only for the clones. Let them do it. You are coming with me." I said with a smirk.
"Huh where, shouldn't I go and train with my clones" Naruto asked with confusion.
I at this just smiled.
[5 minutes later]
"Good Morning Guy sensei. I am here to continue my Taijutsu training. Naruto also wants to learn Taijutsu from you. I hope you don't mind right"
"Gosh, that's the spirit. That is the power of Youth my young friends. Now both of you start with 30 laps around the village with this on" Guy said and handed over the weights.
My eyes at this just twitch see the laps and the weights increasing.
Naruto was not faring any better.
"One minute. Why Taijutsu all of a sudden? I never asked you to teach me Taijutsu" Naruto complained.
"That's because you have many loopholes in your Taijustu. When I fought you earlier I noticed.
And dont complain. I am too training with you, don't I? Even I left 300 clones behind with your clones to Practice Swordsmanship.
So don't complain, more or less we are training equally" I said.
At this, he just muttered and started the training.
[6 hours later]
"How come we are still alive after that training" Naruto asked me.
"Hahahahaha" I could not help myself.
"Hey, why are you laughing" He got irritated.
"Nothing Nothing. I asked the same question to myself earlier. That's why I am laughing." I replied and kept on walking towards home.
"By the way, where is Kakashi sensei? I have not seen him or Jiraiya since I came back to the village" I asked.
"Oh, Kakashi Sensei and Pervy Sage have gone on a mission together. It has something to do with Akatsuki.
Naruto said this and his mood turned sour.
"Hey don't worry. They will not touch you until I am here. Not to mention, once our training is completed. I am afraid that even if I am not around, they will think twice before attacking you" I said and patted them on his shoulder.
"Come on, let's go home. In my travels, I have learned a special method to make Ramen. You might even forget Ichiraku after eating mine" I smirk.
"Huh, there is no way".
"Oh okay then. How about a little bet with me? If you like the Ramen then you will do one thing I ask of you.
If you did not then I will do the same. What you say" I asked him.
"You are on" Naruto shouted.
I at this just smirk.
"Oh my poor brother," I thought and smiled.
Chapter 177: Chapter 177 : Teaching And Learning (Rewrite)
Days like this kept on going and I kept on training with Naruto.
I remember that in Shippuden, Naruto trains under Kakashi and Yamato to create wind-style Rasen Shuriken.
This time around, I thought, I started teaching Naruto a lot earlier. This should do it.
But the real question is how the hell I am going to.
"It's done" Naruto shouted while I was thinking. Breaking my concentration and line of thought.
I looked towards him and saw a Clone holding a fully formed Rasengan in his hand.
A smirk spread on my face and I shouted.
"Alright. Release all your clones and then show me your progress".
With that said all the Naruto clones released themselves and then the real Naruto came in front of me.
He raised his hand and then I finally saw the result of all his training.
" Rasengan" Naruto said and a ball of highly dense rotating chakra formed in his hands.
"Awesome, you have finally completed the first training. Now tell me, brother, do you want to continue or give up here" I Asked already knowing the answer but still asking.
"huh, are you joking? I am not stopping before I am a Jonin like you, Dattebayo" Naruto shouted the last part.
I smirk.
"Okay then rest for a little while before we start the training" I said.
To this, Naruto nodded and immediately ran away.
Where he was running away. Well, that would be to eat the lunch I made in the morning. The special Uzumaki-style ramen.
Guess I won that bet huh? Hahaha.
But this is not the right time to think about this. The real question is what I am going to teach Naruto after this.
In the anime, he created Wind Style Rasen Shuriken with the help of Kakashi and Yamato. And I already have learned that technique, meaning I can teach him but the problem is that unlike me, he does not have absolute control of the technique.
If he learns the Rasen Shuriken then Naruto will face the same issue he did in the anime. This attack will make his hands useless. The damage is gonna be a little too much.
So should I teach him Sage mode before this?
Or there might be another way to handle this situation.
I looked towards Naruto who was devouring Ramen like a demon and sighed.
Well, let's not worry about that right now. I have to teach him wind-style chakra before anything.
With that said, I walk towards Naruto to eat my own lunch but then notice something.
"Bastard, you eat my lunch too" I shouted.
[1 hour later]
After kicking my brother's ass and getting something to eat from the village. We were finally ready to start the training once again.
"Okay, then Naruto. Now we have improved your Rasengan which I can say is your only high-end way to damage an enemy and also your Taijutsu to some extent. More work will be done there so no problem" I said and also heard a click sound coming from Naruto.
I can understand why. This is because, for the last few days, both of us have been tortured by the hellish training from Mr Guy. But we did it nonetheless.
And for a good reason. I thought and saw the System notification which was in front of me.
System notification.
[Ding. Template Update 68%]
I smirked.
"So finally now I can start teaching you something new," I said with a smile.
At this, Naruto too just smiled.
"Alright, let's get started" He shouted.
"Okay then look at this" I said with started making hand signs.
"Wind style, Great Wind Breakthrough," I said and did all the hand signs so that Naruto could see it.
And then there was a powerful gush of wind blowing in the area.
"Woah, how did you do that" Naruto asked.
"Well, that Chakra Nature Transformation. Chakra can be transformed into one of the five basic elements." It took me some time to explain the entire thing to Naruto but in the end, he understood everything about Chakra Nature change and also the Kekkei Genkai transformation.
"That's so cool. Teach me. Teach me" Naruto sounded pretty excited.
"Okay okay. But let's start with seeing what kind of chakra nature you have first" I said and took out a chakra nature paper and gave it to Naruto.
"What is this" Naruto could not help but ask.
"Put your chakra in that paper and we will find out about your chakra nature," I said and took out another piece of paper and put my chakra into it.
"See like this" I show Naruto my paper.
The entire paper was cut and both sides were burned and crinkled.
"As you can see. I have three different types of Chakra. Not everyone is like this. Like Sasuke has 2. Fire and Lightning.
Although having more is always good that also means we need to master more Chakra Nature, taking more time.
Now put chakra to that paper" I said to Naruto.
Well from that point onward, everything was very similar to what happened in the anime.
Naruto had the Wind Nature.
I taught Naruto Wind-style training instead of Asuma. And Naruto started to train just like in the anime with multiple of his clones. Trying to cut leaves.
I also left around 300 clones with Naruto's clones to train in swordsmanship. This was not only because of learning swordsmanship but also to keep an eye on Naruto.
In the anime, Yamato was there to stop Naruto if nine-tail chakra leaked from him. But right now I have to do it.
After leaving, Naruto alone. I went directly to the Hokage Office. Tsunade called me earlier for some reason.
I directly launch the Hiraishin and appear outside of the office.
Knock Knock.
I heard Tsunde saying come in and I entered.
"So you are finally here. Good" Tsunade said and I slightly narrowed my eyes.
"You called me here for some reason. Do you have any mission for me?" I asked
"Me, brat it was you who wanted to learn Medical Jutsu from me. Do you even remember or forget" Tsunade said.
"Oh yeah, I want to learn but I thought you don't have time right now. That was the reason I was not disturbing you" I said.
Tsunade at this just shook her head.
"Don't worry about me brat. I promise to teach you and I meant it. So do you want to learn or not" Tsuande asked.
"Yeah Yeah. I want to learn" I said.
Chapter 178: Chapter 178 : Teaching And Learning 2 (Rewrite)
"Why we are here" Naruto asked, a little frown on his face.
I just bought Naruto to the Valley of the End. The reason is, that there is no other good waterfall around to learn wind nature chakra transformation.
And the reason why Naruto was frowning was because this is the place where Naruto last fought Sasuke.
Although it was nothing like in the anime but still Naruto wanted to bring that bastard back.
"Alright now get on to it."
"Get on to what? What do I have to do" Naruto asked totally confused.
I just rolled my eyes. I just explained the entire thing to Naruto while we were coming here. But just like Naruto, he did not listen to anything or outright did not understand.
"Okay let me repeat. No, even better let me show you what you have to train" I said and jumped towards the waterfall.
Because I could not just directly ask Yamato to help with Naruto's training. I have to come all the way here to train him.
After getting up with the water walking technique. I put my hand on the waterfall.
Naruto's eyes widen as the entire waterfall splits in two.
"See this is what you have to do. Use wind style to cut the waterfall. Similar to cutting a leaf but much harder" I said and came down.
Naruto at this looked a little dazed but then immediately regained his excitement and made multiple shadow clones.
"By the way, today I won't be training with you. I have other things to do. But I just am leaving a shadow clone just in case you need any help" I said and a puff of smoke appeared. Clone came and I vanished from Naruto's view.
Konoha Library
I instantly appeared there and looked around. Quickly spotting the familiar pink hair. I approach her.
"Hello, Sakura. I hope that I am not late " I asked.
"No, I just arrived here".
"Good Good. Then let's start" I said.
Tsunade appointed Sakura to teach me medical Jutsu. Actually, I already thought this much. Although I would have preferred Ino or Tsunade herself I too understand the reason.
Ino is not as good as Sakura and Tsunade doesn't have time. In fact, the last time Tsunade called me. It was because she wanted to take a surprise test to see whether I was capable of learning the medical skills or not.
I passed with flying colours. In fact, I was so good that she did not let Ino teach me. Because Ino's might be not as good as me.
Meaning I am stuck with Saukra.
I just went towards her and sat beside her.
"Why are you sitting that close"
"How I am supposed to see what you are teaching me"
She just rolled her eyes.
I smell and she kinda smells like, well sakura flowers. I wonder why.
"Is that a new shampoo you used" I asked.
This got her attention.
"How do you know".
"Well usually you smell like jasmine but now your are smell like Sakura flowers."
She blink.
"When did you smell me you perv".
I rolled my eyes at this.
"I don't have to actively smell you Ms. pink hairs. I nose is strong enough that I notice it. And don't call me perv. I slap your ass because you deserve it. A real enemy at that time would have done more than just spank you" I replied.
I can practically see a tick mark forming but she did not do anything.
"Yes I got a new shampoo"
"Hmm, interesting. Got a date with anyone."
"Huh, why you say that" Sakura suddenly perk up at this.
"Well, you are not wearing your usual shinobi outfit. Have your hair done in a different way. I guess this much is enough to explain that you are meeting a boy." I said.
"Well I am not, okay".
"Today is my free day. After that mission in Tenchi Bridge. I did not have time to get any rest. So lady Tsunade said that as long as I teach you. I can get the rest of the day off" She replied.
"I see, sorry for causing you trouble then. Let me make it up to you after we are done here" I said and she just rolled her eyes. We started our studies.
But Sakura did not know that the Kirito she was talking to was just a clone.
Training ground 9
"Gosh, you have improved so fast Kirito Kun. I can't believe that you learn my Strong Fist technique this fast." Guy said with his trade mark thumbs up.
Yup all this time, I was also training with Mr Guy. All for increasing my template.
And it works too. It's already 69. But it's not going any higher than that.
"Is there anything else I need to know Mr Guy?" I asked.
He told me not to call him Guy sensei as we are the same rank, so Mr Guy is the best alternative I can come up with.
"Hmm well there are many fighting techniques I know but that will now suit your fighting style.
However, I have another trick which I can pass to you. It's very hard and if you can't control it then you might even die.
Do you want to learn" Guy asked.
My eyes could not even widen a little. Is this what I think it is.
Will he really teach me?
I looked back at my 69% update status and thought.
It's stopped at that and not progressing further. Maybe this technique can help me.
"Yes, please teach me" I shouted.
Training ground 1
Another one of my clones was here and the reason was this blue scarf kid in front of me.
"Big brother Kirito. You said that you will teach me a new Jutsu. Teach now" Konohamaru said.
I sighed at this.
Well, this kid was annoying me and Naruto while we were training. So I just to drive him away told him that I would teach him a powerful jutsu if he left. I never thought that he would really make me do it.
"Well, not like if I don't teach me then Naruto won't. This kid in the future not only takes down one of the Pain but also becomes the team sensei of the new team 7. I better teach him a good technique" I mutter to myself and take out a water balloon.
"Here take this"
"Hmm, what I am suppose to do with this," he asked.
"This" I took out another balloon and popped it in front of him.
"Do this with the rotation of your chakra. This is 1 of the three steps to learn this technique. And remember that this technique is pretty strong.
The fourth Hokage himself created this technique.
Its called Rasengan. Currently Naruto is trying to learn a powerful technique too. Let see who do that faster." I said and smirk, knowing fully well that this will hook up the kid.
Chapter 179: Chapter 179 : Teaching And Learning 3 (Rewrite)
"So you are training Naruto in wind Style and then you will teach him the wind style rasengan" Kakashi who just come back from his mission with Jiraiya asked.
After coming, Tsuande directly put Kakashi responsible for Naruto's security. Although she never asked me I was always around Naruto nowadays to stop any attack from the Akatsuki.
But still, she felt relieved if Kakashi was also by his side.
And that's how after not finding Naruto in the village. He panics and summons his dog and ends up coming to the valley of the end.
"Yeah, he already mastered Rasengan with one hand and now after he mastered the wind chakra transformation. I can start teaching him the Wind Style Rasengan" I replied.
"Hmm, Wind style Rasengan. Even your father was not able to learn this Jutsu. He was unable to add any chakra nature to the Rasengan. Would you mind showing me how you do it?
I am pretty interested now" Kakashi asked.
"Yeah no problem . I too think that I need to show Naruto why he is training this hard. Maybe I can motivate him more".
Kakashi at this just turned his head and looked towards the waterfall entirely filled with Naruto's clones trying to cut the waterfall into half.
"I don't think he needs more motivation" Kakashi deadpan.
"Well you never go wrong with a little more right" I replied and then shouted.
"Naruto, come here. "
He did not reply. Maybe the sound of the waterfall is too much for him to hear me.
I took out a Shuriken and threw it towards a clone.
Puff.
The moment the clone vanished all the Naruto stopped in their place.
"Oi what are you doing" He shouted.
"Come down, I want to show you something"
"Oh, Kakashi sensei. You are back," he shouted from there.
After he came down I said.
" Naruto although you are learning the Wind Nature Chakra Transformation, have you ever thought why," I asked.
He at this just shook his head.
"Good then watch carefully. Because I am going to teach you this" I said and then started to walk a little further.
"Kakashi sensei. What is he doing" Naruto asked.
"You will learn soon enough. Keep watching" Kakashi replied.
Naruto turned his head and looked at my stretched hand.
He saw a rasengan forming in my hand.
Then suddenly the wind started to flow towards the rasengan.
"SHirrrrrrrrrrrrrrr"
A sharp sound of wind suddenly came to both of their ears.
"This" Naruto muttered. Eyes already have stars.
Kakashi also widens his only exposed eye.
But I was not done yet.
"First make a normal Rasengan. Remember that it will take more chakra to add wind so expect the size to increase a little or make the rasengan small in the first place.
Once you done that then you started adding Wind Chakra." I said not looking at them.
I raise my hand to let the entire Wind Style Rasen Shuriken form.
The moment I raise my hand. The Rasengan started to become more powerful and rotate faster.
The wind intensity increased and finally, a terrible sound came.
My chakra was so dense that it did not turn white because of the wind chakra but light blue.
Then a miniature version of the Milky Way Galaxy appears in my hand. The Rasengan started giving of even more eerie high-pitched sound.
"Wind Style Rasen Shuriken" I shouted. Tell the name of this fabulous move to the universe and throw the Rasengan.
"He threw it" Both Kakashi and Naruto'd eyes widen.
Like a missile, the Rasengan went towards a tree and cut it.
Next Tree was also cut and so the next 4.
And finally when the Rasengan stopped it expanded and a huge majestic dome of wind was created.
I look back towards Naruto and Kakashi before the dome was created.
Recreating the famous Tony Stark scene when he used the Jeriko missile for the first time.
But I honestly didn't believe that they were looking at me and I smirked face at this time.
"Poof" Suddenly smoke came and Kirito was gone.
With Guy and Real Kirito.
"Sighs seems like Rasen Shuriken took all of the clone's chakra. Well, I should not worry about Naruto as Kakashi sensei is with him" thought to myself.
Currently, I was training with Guy and it was pretty hard.
honestly, nothing to know here so let's see what my other clone is doing with Sakura.
With Sakura and Kirito Clone.
"I can't believe this. How did you do it" Sakura asked, acting like Hermione.
Well, I say that because currently, she was getting a tad too competitive as I was setting a world record in this world with my learning talent.
Thanks to my Hyper Focus Technique.
"It's simple. Just a little mental trick to remember things." I bullshited.
"Oh what is it"
"What's what"
"That memorization technique."
"Oh, that. Well, you need to make a story which kind of connects things" I bullshited more.
After 5 minutes of continuous bullshitting. I made her finally believe in my bullshit.
"That's amazing. But if you can learn this fast then why you were getting average marks in the Academy" Sakura asked in confusion.
"Well I just did not want to read. I spent most of my time training. Most of the time, I was just not present in the class. It was a clone".
At this Sakura's eyes widen a little.
"Alright, enough boring stuff. I told you that I would make it up to you to take all your off days. Come on" I said and grabbed her by the hands and launched the Hiraishin technique.
"Wow what are you doing," Sakura asked the moment we teleported.
"Nothing, just as I said that I will make it up with you. Here it is" I said and made her look forwards.
This place was my hidden training ground which is now almost like a resort at this point.
"A chance to enjoy all the luxury this world has to offer. This is my Namikaze Resort. And no I totally did not just make that up right now" I said.
Well, Sakura is not looking at me at all. She already had stars in her eyes after seeing the beautiful resort in front of her.
Chapter 180: Chapter 180 : The Fire Temple (Rewrite)
Konohagakure No Sato.
I took Naruto to training ground 7 where Kakashi sensei and Yamato senpai were already waiting for us.
"What's going on? Why we are not going to the Valley of the End" Naruto complained.
Since the day I have shown him the Wind Style Rasen Shuriken. He is been eager to learn that technique.
I honestly feel sorry for my brother. He has no idea just how much troublesome it gonna be to learn the Wind Nature chakra. Let alone Rasen Shuriken.
"I brought you here before from this point onwards your training will be handed to Kakashi Sensei and Yamato Senpai here."
Naruto at this blink but then immediately said.
"What but why? You already know the technique. Isn't it better for you to teach me" Naruto whines.
"True but I have a mission. So I can't teach you. Of course, if you are ready to wait for me to come back and waste all this time then sure. Be my guest and wait for me" I said, already knowing the answer.
"Kakashi Sensei, I hope you already know what to teach him right? He is currently learning wind chakra transformation.
If I don't come back in time then please go ahead and guide him on learning the Wind style Rasengan please" I said and at this, Kakashi just gave his one-eye smile.
"Brother make sure that you work hard and don't cause trouble for them," I said and vanished.
After that, I directly went home. And back my back.
I have to meet team 10 on their way.
Because I wanted to tell Kakashi how to help Naruto learn the Rasen Shuriken and what kind of problems it can cause to his own hands, I did not go out on the mission with them.
They left earlier this morning. And now I have to catch up with them.
But before that. I went to the Weapon Shop.
"Hello, mister. Are you done working on my sword" I asked.
I gave my sword to the smith for some minor changes. Like taking out the hand guard and making the sword look more like a Katana.
And also to change the handle as well. Making it more oval than round.
"This sword. Where did you get it? I have never seen it before. It's even better than the seven ninja swords from Kirigakure". Mr, Smith asked with amazement.
"It's a gift from my teacher. He taught me Swordsmanship" I said with a smile.
After seeing his eyes I could say that he have a lot more to talk about. So I just quickly handed over the money to him and took the sword from him.
After that, I directly left the village.
From the Village to the Fire temple it's a 3-day journey.
But that is only for normal people. For Shinobi, 1 day is more than good enough.
With my speed. I can reach there in half a day.
Time Skip Kun.
After one day of journey and meeting up with team 10 and other Chunin and Jonin of the village.
We finally reach the Fire Temple.
"It's completely gone," said Asuma.
What we were seeing was a destroyed fire temple.
Tombs were laid everywhere. I am sure that hundreds died here.
"It's awful" Ino put her hands on her mouth.
Shikamaru and the temporary member of team 10 Choji also frown.
After some investigating we finally found out that Akatsuki did it.
They even killed one of the former guardian shinobi and Asuma's old friend, Chiriku.
"They took his body," Asuma asked.
"Yes" Replied an old monk.
"Bounty" I said and Asuma nodded.
"We need to find the nearest bounty office. Most likely that we will find those Akatsuki there" Shikamaru advised and all of us nodded at this.
It turns out that there is two bounty office in the area. Meaning the team has to split.
There are seven of us.
A team of 4 or 3 will do but.
I looked towards Asuma.
I remember that Asuma died at the hands of the Akatsuki members. If I am not wrong then this might be that mission.
I know because this is exactly like when Naruto learned this Rasen Shuriken Technique and killed one of the Akatsuki.
His only kill is shown in the anime.
Well, I have a better Idea here.
"Give me some time. Considering that they are still inside the border of the Land of Fire. I might be able to sense them" I said.
"What you can do that" Asuma's eyes widen.
"Maybe, last time it was easy because Gaara had my Hiraishin seal on him. But this time, it's a 50 - 50 chance that I will find them" With that said.
I entered into Sage mode and spread out my senses as much as possible.
I thought it would be harder but I found them on the first try. Did not even require me the observe Haki.
"hmm maybe the distance is not exactly the factor but the person I am trying to find is. Last time Finding Gaara was hard because he was sealed away. I only found him because of my seal." I thought to myself.
"Found them but there is a 20% chance that I am wrong. I will advise you to send 4 people there and 3 people to the other bounty office" I said with confidence.
Well, there is no mistake I know but I just don't want everyone there. It's gonna be a deadly fight. Better only takes strong people.
The last time was different. I was able to kill them easily because I sneak attacked them when I changed my position with Gaara.
But this time around, I have to be serious.
I am not worried about myself but that's not the case with Others.
"Alright then here is the team division. Kirito, Shikamaru, Ino and I will go to the bounty office which Kirito said and the rest will go to the other bounty office." Asuma said.
All of them agree.
"Here take this Kunai. If you face any problem just throw the kunai somewhere and I will come to your location." I said to Choji and handed him the Hiraishn Kunai.
"Alright then, let's get moving," Asuma said and all of us vanished from our place.
