Later at night,
All of us gather at the outskirts of Hidden Waterfall Village as we hid over selves. Village Chief Hisen also hid nearby with his Jounin teams. We wait for enemies to attack the village.
In the direction of 1 o'clock I sense some movement inside the lake as I warn my team with gestures. I am the only sensor in my team, so I am assigned to locate the enemies. I raise my guard as I patiently wait for enemies to appear.
One by one, many shinobis cloaked in black clothes appears on the top of the lake. I count their numbers. There are nearly a hundred shinobis on the lake's surface.
'That's a large group of people. They can almost form a small hidden village with these many shinobis.' I try to speculate on their origin.
One person who seems to be their leader makes some hand gestures to them. The shinobis disperse after their leader's orders.
"This is our chance." The Village head Hisen orders his men as he jumps out from his hiding place to engage in combat with foreign shinobis.
Soon, a heated battle starts between both sides as one jutsu after another flies around. I lazily fight with a jounin as I am interested in their origin.
Hisen is engaged with the leader of the foreign shinobi group. He makes some rapid hand signs,
'Water Style: Lotus Light Rupture'
Drops of water start to rise from the lake. The water droplets fuse as they formed Razor-sharp 'Lotus Petals'. The petals expand in size and spin rapidly. Hisen points them at enemy shinobis as the petals emit explosive energy.
The lotus petals made the atmosphere similar to a scene within a Zen garden as the melody of death plays. The enemy commander sensed the danger from the technique as he immediately made some hand signs,
'Radiation Release: Radioactive Decay'
His body generates a deadly amount of radiation. The surrounding air heats as it ionizes, the nearby lake water boils from the extreme heat. All the 'Lotus Petals' evaporates from the heat, nullifying the jutsu.
I jump back to avoid the deadly radiation. I immediately activate my Sharingan as I record the new Nature Transformation.
Hisen also dodges the radiation directed at him as he makes some more hand signs,
'Water Release: Water Prison Dome'
He makes a water prison around the enemy commander to isolate the radiation. But his efforts seem to be futile as the water evaporates from the heat.
I quickly make some hand signs,
'Water Release: Water Bullet Jutsu'
I shoot a water bullet at an enemy commander who dodges the first bullet but is hit by the second one. He is flung out of the lake and crashes on to the shore.
"Village Chief and I will take care of the enemy commander, rest of you stop other enemies." Our Team Captain orders us.
I engage with other enemy shinobis, but most of my attention is on the enemy commander. I have never seen such a weird Nature Transformation.
I quickly checked the body of the enemy commander, and I got my answer. The Nature Transformation Radiation Release is a mix of Fire Release and Yang Release.
He is using fire release to produce fire and empowering it with the Yang Release, which results in this deadly radiation.
'This seems pretty suicidal. He is compensating some Yang Chakra with his life energy. How desperate is this dude to blow Takigakure? Does he have a backstory like every Naruto Villain?'
I question myself. The area around Enemy commander turned into a dead zone of Radiation. The enemy commander makes some more hand signs,
'Radiation Release: Matter Decay Bomb'
He spews out an enormous amount of green fire. The fire starts to condense into a dense ball as it pulsates. He launches the ball towards the village.
"Damn! He is targeting the village. If it hit the village, everyone inside will be toast."
I curse him as I start to think of counter-measures. Village Chief Hisen makes some hand signs as he slams his hand on water,
'Summoning Jutsu: Ryurimaru'
A giant crimson, white catfish six times the size of a human appears in the water.
"Ryurimaru transform to protect the village," Hisen commands the summon.
'Dragon God Transformation'
The fish turns into a giant golden dragon. The dragon swiftly moves in front of the Radiation bomb, The dragon opens its mouth and fires an energy beam at the ball.
Boom…
This results in an explosion as the dragon is able to redirect the bomb towards a nearby hill.
Boom…
The Radiation Bomb collides with the hill and explodes. A large mushroom cloud rises in the air as all the life-forms die on the hill. Green Radiation envelops the hill, the hill has become inhabitable for years to come.
'Damn! That's a pocket atom bomb.'
I gaped at the scenario of the hill. Tailed beast bombs will only detonate and explode, but this jutsu leaves behind deadly radiation as it aftereffect.
The enemy commander is drained of his Chakra at this point. We have also dealt with pretty much all the enemies. The skills of Anbu are a notch higher than regular Jounins and our team is one of the elite.
This outcome breaks the mind of the enemy commander. He frantically starts to shout,
"Why… why, this outcome must happen? Twenty years…I spent twenty years to plan for my revenge.
Twenty years ago, my village was wiped by a shinobi from Takigakure.
At that time, we were engaged in a war against Konoha. The Third Hokage launched a surprise attack and our village lost the war. When we returned to the village, death and devastation of our Torigakure village welcomed us.
We were a small village located in The Land of Birds who had a conflict with Konoha on some interests; what had those innocent villagers done to anybody to face such a grueling death where their hearts were ripped apart from their body? My wife, my daughter, and even my newborn son were slaughtered in that massacre.
After investigating the perpetrator, the trails lead us to Takigakure. Kakuzu of the Takigakure slaughtered our entire village. From that day onwards, I decided to take revenge from Takigakure.
I spent the past twenty years of my life practicing the 'Kinjutsu' of my village, hoping to avenge my family. I can't fail now, No! I won't fail now.
Haha…. Haha…
All of you must die with me. I will join my family in the afterlife together with the entire Takigakure."
The enemy commander laughs hysterically as he made some hand signs.
I could see his life force draining at an extreme rate. His body inflates as deformation rose on his body. His body condensed into a small green sphere as it shines.
"Stop him! He is about to detonate himself with that Radiation Release. If he is successful in his jutsu, then the entire Takigakure Village will turn into a dead zone filled with Radiation." I warn all the shinobis who are staring with wide-eyes at the enemy Ninja.
'Radiation Release: Nuclear Detonation'
The village Head Hisen fished out a small gourd from his pocket as he immediately uncorked it. He gulps down the crystal clear water.
'So, that's the legendary 'Hero Water' of Takigakure, which made it known throughout the world. Most of the invaders attack the village for this water, but the village successfully repelled them. How ironic, they are facing an existential crisis because of revenge, not because of this water. I guess this dude is more desperate than others, part of the reason he succeeded in his invasion.'
I look at the village Chief, then I direct gaze towards the enemy shinobi who has turned into a green ball at this point.
'I am not a part of this shit! Don't blow me up, you motherfucker!' I silently curse that enemy shinobi in my mind.
A large amount of Chakra starts to rile up from the Village Head as the blue Chakra is visible to our eyes. I check his body with my Sharingan and I can see a sharp spike in his chakra reserves.
There is a tenfold increase of Chakra in Hisen's Chakra reserves. The Chakra is so potent that it pushed away nearby water and forms partial Chakra arms. The Chakra Network of Hisen is frantically pumping this extra Chakra through his body as some of his Chakra meridians start to snap.
His life force is draining quickly as his remaining brown hairs start to turn grey. Wrinkles appear on his skin and his body starts to hunch a little.
'So, this is the side-effect of 'Hero Water'. It makes you a hero for a few instances, then zero for life. This name is appropriate for this water.'
The village chief gets ready for his Hero Moment.
'Should I pop some popcorns for this moment.'
I joke in my mind as I turn serious to face the explosion as I really might die here.
