Demon Vs Android
Team Seven and Tazuna were close to their destination; just a few more hours and they would arrive at the house of the bridge builder. The group was moving through a clearing when they heard a rustling sound from the bushes. Without hesitation, Sasuke hurled a kunai in the direction of the noise. Instead of a human enemy, a small rabbit with white fur emerged, scampering away in fright. The rabbit's fur was so pure and white it almost glowed in the dim light filtering through the trees, making it look like a tiny, frightened ghost. It darted away into the underbrush, its little heart no doubt pounding.
Naruto's eyes narrowed in on Sasuke, her mechanical tone cutting through the air. "Threat assessment failure. Probability of harm from small mammal: 0%," she stated, her voice as robotic as ever. This was her attempt at humor, her way of teasing Sasuke in her unique, emotionless style. The corners of her lips twitched slightly, an almost imperceptible sign that she found her own remark amusing. "Conclusion: Bastards are bad at aim"
Sakura immediately stepped in to defend Sasuke, her voice firm and protective. "He was just being cautious, Naruto. Better safe than sorry," she said, her hands on her hips and a determined look in her eyes. Her pink hair swayed slightly as she moved, emphasizing her point with a nod. She shot Sasuke a reassuring glance, silently supporting his actions.
Before anyone could say more, Kakashi's voice rang out sharply, cutting through the tension. "Duck!" he yelled, his tone urgent and commanding. Instinctively, the team hit the ground, their movements synchronized by training. A massive blade spun through the air above them, the sound of its passage like a low whistle. It embedded itself in a tree with a resounding thud, the force of the impact causing leaves to shake loose and flutter to the ground.
"Well, well, well," a voice boomed across the clearing. "I was told that the bridge-builder had hired shonobi from the Leaf. But…"
A man emerged from the shadows, his presence immediately imposing. He was tall and muscular, with bandages covering the lower half of his face and spiky, unkempt hair that framed his sharp, dangerous eyes. His attire was dark, accentuating the aura of menace that surrounded him. "Kakashi Hatake, the Copy Ninja," he said, his voice low and menacing, resonating with a chilling calm. "I'm truly honored to meet you."
Kakashi's expression turned serious, his visible eye narrowing as he assessed the threat. "Stay back," he instructed his team, his tone leaving no room for argument. "This is a fight way above your league. That's Zabuza Momochi, a rogue ninja from the Village Hidden in the Mist. He killed his entire graduation class to pass from the academy." His words were heavy with the gravity of the situation, a stark reminder of the dangers they faced.
"Oh, so you know who I am?" Zabuza mused aloud. "I am flattered."
With deliberate slowness, Kakashi lifted his headband, revealing the Sharingan in his left eye. The red, swirling pattern was both mesmerizing and intimidating. Sasuke's eyes widened in shock, his breath catching in his throat. A mix of awe and envy crossed his face, the realization that his sensei possessed such a powerful tool shaking him to his core.
"Sharingan right off the bat?" Zabuza chuckled, although his body stiffened.
"Can't underestimate you after what you cooked in Kiri."
"Well," Zabuza shrugged. "It was a good attempt. Though the Mizukage was not slouch. Now, enough talk!"
Zabuza didn't waste any time. He brought his hands together, forming a series of rapid hand seals. "Let's see how you handle this, Copy Ninja," he sneered, his voice dripping with contempt. In an instant, the area was shrouded in a thick, oppressive mist. Visibility dropped to near zero, the fog so dense it felt like a physical barrier. "Hidden Mist: Silent Killing!"
Sakura gasped as she took a defensive stance in front of Tazuna.
"Seven vital points— lungs, brain, kidney…"
Zabuza continued to name organs and Sasuke couldn't stop his legs from trembling. 'If only I was as strong as you…Itachi.'
"...which should I go for?" Zabuza finished.
Kakashi responded swiftly, his hands moving in a blur as he performed the Wind Style: Great Breakthrough technique. A powerful gust of wind surged from his position, dispersing the mist and clearing the field.
Zabuza was now visible, a grin on his masked face.
"Let's see how good you are, Kakashi of the Sharingan!"
The two ninja clashed fiercely, their movements a blur of speed and precision. At first, it was not understandable who was winning but soon it became clear who was the better one. Kakashi was faster and unlike his opponent he was using multiple weapons Zabuza created water clones to aid him, each one a perfect replica of the original. The clones moved in tandem, their attacks coordinated and relentless.
Kakashi seemed to be winning, his Sharingan allowing him to anticipate Zabuza's moves with uncanny accuracy. His movements were precise and deadly, each strike aimed to incapacitate or kill. But Zabuza, ever the cunning warrior, managed to trap Kakashi in a Water Prison. The spherical barrier of water held Kakashi in place, restricting his movements and slowly draining his strength.
Kakashi's voice echoed through the clearing, urgent and commanding despite his predicament. "Run! Take Tazuna and get out of here!" he yelled, his tone brooking no argument.
We will not leave you behind!" Saskue yelled, even though he was shaking violently.
Sakura was frozen. But managed to say, "N-never…"
Zabuza gave them a serious look before he began to laugh hysterically.
"Look at you, you think whatever they teach you in the academy is really the reality? You do not know what it means to be a true shinobi."
"Shut up—" Sasuke growled.
"Tell me, have you ever killed someone? Have you ever bathed in the blood of your enemies?"
No respond. Zabuza chuckled once more. "Now, be good kids and hand over Tazuna to me."
Tazuna looked like he was about to pass out.
"—and maybe I'll let you go. You know what? If you leave your headbands behind than I will definitely let you go."
"Sasuke, Naruto, Sakura…" they heard Kakashi say, who was having a hard time breathing. "R-run."
"We should abandon you?" Naruto, for the first time, spoke.
Zabuza looked at her. Other than her utility pouch attached to her thigh and the Leaf headband, there was actually no way for telling that she was a shinobi, instead she looked like a young model.
"Sensei," Naruto continued. "I believe the protocols say that we should listen to everything you say." She paused and raised her head, her sapphire eyes gleaming with determine. "But in the shinobi world, those who abandon their missions are trash, but those who abandon their comrades are worse than trash."
The genin refused to leave, their loyalty and determination overriding their fear. Zabuza's mocking laughter filled the air, a cruel sound that sent chills down their spines.
"You definitely have balls kid—"
"No, I don't." She retorted emotionlessly. "Dattebayo."
"...oh, of course, you're a chick. So, correction: you've got guts."
"I don't have guts either." Naruto stated. "Dattebayo."
Zabuza gave her a blank look before he said, "Kakashi, do you think these brats have what it means to be a shinobi?" Zabuza taunted, his voice laced with scorn. "The little pink girl couldn't even move after seeing me, and the boy? He can't even hit a rabbit properly." His words were like poison, designed to undermine their confidence and break their spirit. "That little white haired brat looks pathetic. Is that how a shinobi should dress? Not even fit to be a ninja."
Sasuke's hands clenched into fists, his nails digging into his palms. Anger and fear mingled in his eyes, the frustration of feeling powerless burning within him. Sakura's face was pale, her hands trembling slightly, but she stood her ground, her resolve unshaken. Tazuna was barely conscious, his body trembling with fear, his mind struggling to comprehend the peril they were in.
Meanwhile, inside Naruto's mind, a battle was raging. 'Kakashi-sensei is in danger,' she thought, her usually emotionless mind now filled with urgency. 'If we don't—'
-Fellow Leaf Ninja is in danger. Assessing threat level.
'Who? Oh, great, the artificial intelligence in my head,' she responded internally, her frustration mingling with her determination. 'Are you going to sabotage me once again?'
-Scan complete. Temporary access to 15% skills granted.
A sudden rush of information flooded Naruto's mind, a torrent of knowledge and instincts that overwhelmed her senses. Before she could fully process it, her body moved on its own, delivering a powerful kick to one of Zabuza's water clones. The force of the blow shattered the clone into a spray of water droplets. Zabuza's eyes widened in surprise, but his clones quickly engaged her in hand-to-hand combat. To everyone's astonishment, Naruto easily overwhelmed them, her movements swift and precise, her expression remaining emotionless.
The real Zabuza, still holding Kakashi in the water prison, along with the rest of Team Seven and Tazuna, watched with wide eyes. Naruto's movements were a blur, her strikes calculated and efficient. She moved with a grace and power that belied her petite frame, each attack perfectly timed and executed.
One of Zabuza's clones swung the Executioner's Blade at Naruto, aiming to cut her in half. The massive sword gleamed menacingly as it sliced through the air. Just as the blade was about to strike, there was a flash of yellow light.
"Senju Style: Kenjutsu."
When the light died down, there was the sound of electric—
Naruto now held a katana crackling with lightning chakra.
Kakashi and Zabuza's eyes widened in recognition. The Raijin, the legendary sword of the Second Hokage, was a weapon of immense power. Both men were stunned, knowing that the sword had been stolen years ago. How did she have it? The question hung in the air, unspoken but palpable.
Naruto had already defeated the water clones and was closing in on the real Zabuza. The eater under her steps vaporized and Sands turned solied. Her movements were fluid and unyielding, each step bringing her closer to her target.
"Objective: Neutralize the threat. Dattebayo."
Seeing no other option, Zabuza released Kakashi and prepared to fight Naruto directly. He swung the Executioner's Blade with all his might, but the Raijin cut through it effortlessly, the blade slicing through the thick metal like butter. A scratch appeared on Zabuza's arm, blood oozing from the wound.
He stared at Naruto, his mind racing. The girl in the frilly black dress with white hair was clearly not a fresh academy graduate. There was something about her, something that defied explanation. She was an enigma, a puzzle he could not solve.
Zabuza quickly humped back, switched to water ninjutsu, forming a Water Dragon to attack her. The massive creature surged forward, its jaws opening wide to engulf her.
"Senju Slash." But Naruto effortlessly destroyed it with a single swing of the Raijin, the dragon disintegrating into a spray of water.
Sasuke watched in shock, jealousy burning in his chest. His fists clenched, his nails digging into his palms. He could not believe what he was seeing. Naruto, the girl he had always thought of as strange and robotic, was displaying a level of skill and power that he had never imagined.
Sakura and Tazuna were dumbfounded, their eyes wide with disbelief. Sakura's mouth hung open, her mind struggling to process the events unfolding before her. Tazuna, his body still trembling with fear, felt a flicker of hope ignite within him.
Kakashi, still breathing heavily, was visibly confused. His mind raced as he tried to make sense of what he was seeing. Naruto was not this good in training. So now— how? How does she have the Katana of Tobirama? She was a puzzle that defied explanation. There was more to her than met the eye, and he was determined to uncover the truth.
"Who are you?" Zabuza demanded, his voice a mix of anger and curiosity. He needed answers, and he needed them now.
Naruto's response was delivered in her usual robotic manner. "Naruto Uzumaki." She said. "Academy's Dead-la… brightest student and the future Hokage, dattebayo. Mission priority: protect teammates and client. Threat level: neutralized," she finished, her tone devoid of emotion. Her eyes, however, held a glint of determination.
Zabuza noticed the Senju symbol on her arm as he dodged a swing of the Katana. "A Senju…you are HIS descendant, aren't you?"
She gave him a blank look.
"Thought so," Realizing he was outmatched, Zabuza decided to use his ultimate technique.
With a series of rapid hand seals, Zabuza caused a small tsunami to rise, the water surging towards Naruto with ferocious speed. The sheer force of the wave threatened to engulf everything in its path, the sound of crashing water echoing through the clearing.
Naruto's expression remained calm, her mind calculating the best course of action. "Water Style: Nano-Tsunami!" she declared, her voice steady and unwavering.
Instantly, a massive wave formed, dwarfing Zabuza's attack in both size and power. The two waves collided with a thunderous roar, but Naruto's technique quickly overpowered Zabuza's, sending the rogue ninja tumbling backwards.
Zabuza was hit by the force of the water, his body slamming into the ground. He struggled to his feet, his vision blurred and his body aching from the impact. Blood trickled from a cut on his forehead, mixing with the water that soaked his clothes. He looked up, his eyes narrowing as he tried to focus on Naruto.
Before any of them could react, a masked figure landed gracefully beside Zabuza's prone form. The newcomer moved with the fluidity and precision of a trained ninja, their mask hiding their features but not their intent. "He's dead," the person announced, their voice calm and steady, cutting through the tension in the air.
Naruto's eyes narrowed, her instincts on high alert. "Identify yourself," she demanded, her voice carrying an edge of authority.
Kakashi stepped forward, his posture relaxed but his eyes sharp. He recognized the attire and the aura of the figure. "It's a hunter-nin from the Hidden Mist," he explained, his voice carrying a note of caution. The masked ninja turned to face him, nodding in acknowledgment.
"Kiri has been looking for him for some time now."
The hunter-nin bowed slightly, their movements graceful and controlled. "Thank you for your assistance in defeating Zabuza," they said, their tone polite and formal. "The Mizukage will be notified about your contibution, Uzumaki-san." They swiftly tied Zabuza's body in a specialized cloth, preparing to take him away.
As the hunter-nin began to move, Naruto's sword, the Raijin, vanished back into her body, the crackling lightning chakra dissipating into the air. She felt the sudden drop in her abilities, her skills reverting to their usual 5%. The disorientation was brief, and she quickly regained her composure, her expression remaining stoic.
The hunter-nin gave a final nod of thanks before disappearing into the trees, Zabuza's body in tow. The clearing was silent for a moment, the tension slowly dissipating. The battle had ended, but the implications of what had happened were just beginning to sink in.
Kakashi approached Naruto, his visible eye filled with curiosity and concern. "Naruto, we'll need to talk about this later," he said, his voice gentle but firm. His mind was racing with questions, but he knew that now was not the time for answers. Just then, he fell on the ground with a thud.
"Kakashi-sensei!" Sakura yelled as she rushed in.
"Must have inhaled water," Naruto stated. "Initiating—"
"No! You idiot, stay away from him."
"I wish to extract water."
"By punching his chest?!"
"Yes…"
"Ugh! Sasuke-kun, can you—"
Sasuke took Kakashi on his back as Team Seven gathered around, their expressions a mix of awe and confusion. Sasuke's jealousy simmered beneath the surface, his fists clenched tightly at his sides. He couldn't understand how Naruto, of all people, had displayed such incredible power. Sakura's admiration for Naruto grew, her eyes wide with newfound respect. She had always seen Naruto as strange and robotic, but now she saw her as something more – a powerful and capable ally. Tazuna, still trembling from the recent events, felt a renewed sense of hope. If Naruto could defeat someone like Zabuza, then perhaps his village stood a chance after all.
Sasuke turned to the team, his expression serious. "We need to keep moving. We're not safe here," he said, his tone brooking no argument. The team nodded in agreement, their thoughts still swirling with the events of the past few minutes.
As they continued their journey, the atmosphere was thick with unspoken questions and simmering emotions. Sasuke's thoughts were a whirlwind of envy and frustration. He had always prided himself on his abilities, but seeing Naruto wield such power had shaken him to his core. He resolved to train harder, to become stronger, so that he could surpass her and prove his worth.
Sakura walked beside Naruto, her mind racing with questions. She wanted to understand what had just happened, to know more about the girl she thought she knew. "Naruto, that was amazing," she said quietly, her voice filled with genuine admiration. "How did you do that?"
Naruto glanced at her, her expression still emotionless. "Mission priority: protect teammates and client. Threat level: neutralized," she repeated, her voice robotic but with a hint of pride. Sakura nodded, realizing that she wouldn't get more than that for now. But she was determined to learn more, to understand the mystery that was Naruto Uzumaki.
Tazuna, walking a bit behind the group, felt a sense of relief wash over him. He had been terrified for his life, but now he felt a glimmer of hope. With protectors like these, perhaps his village had a chance. He looked at Naruto, a mix of gratitude and awe in his eyes.
"Old man Tazuna?"
"Y-yes?"
"Do you have Ramen in your village?"
"No, why?"
"I wish to consume some once we get there. Do you know who might have Ramen?"
"Probably Gatou. Why— wait?! You aren't plan—"
"I shall obtain my Ramen," Naruto declared in robotic determination. "Dattebayo."
TBC
Author Note:
Being an android doesn't make Naruto any smarter. Naruto still has the knowledge she had from the beginning.
In battle mode, Naruto can temporarily utilise the stored knowledge. Also, Naruto doesn't have any reproductive organs— because...well, Tobirama made 2B.
2B doesn't have wires and chips inside her. 2B is like Sasori, but way more advanced.
Bitch— the AI, is designed by Mito Uzumaki. So it has the knowledge of Sealing Arts.
Naruto loves pranking, eating ramen and stuff. But doesn't actually need to do them. She's just trying to convince herself she's still human.
Pairing? If there will be one, then it will be one with one. But with who? Keep in mind that Naruto won't have sexual needs even when she is an adult and a huge part of a relationship is sex.
