Chapter 21 - Saving The Uchiha

Naruto stands at the Konoha gate with Shikamaru, Choji, Kiba, Neji, and Rock Lee. "All right. Here are the formations. Don't break it." Naruto handed them a sheet.

"Where are you gonna be?" Kiba asked noticing Narutos absence on the paper.

"I'll be far behind you guys in case of a late ambush. I also don't really feel like doing anything so I'll let you all so the fighting. Now get going." Naruto said as he pulled out a book. The other took off in their formations.

-30 minutes later-

The group of Gennin and one Chuunin where moving fast. They where making up for the time they lost while the kidnappers made off with Saskue. They started to hear voices in the difference causeing them to stop.

"We should ambush them. Just like we practiced." Shikamaru said as they each vanished.

"Ready." Rock Lee whispered to Neji next him. Neji nodded towards a bush whith Shikamaru and Kiba behind it.

"Now." Shikamaru whispered. They all jumped toward the two standing in the clearing only for all of them to be webbed up immediately followed by a laugh.

"We could sense you from a mile away. I'm disappointed that blonde brat isnt with you, but killing you will be just as good." A man with four arm walked towards the webbed up Shikamaru.

"Wait wait. Who said I wasnt here?" A voice from above said drawing the attention of every one present.

"Hello Sakon and Kidomaru, but I don't know who you are?" Narutos voice came from a different location now. A white haired teen a little older than Naruto came out from a bush.

"I thought you weren't gonna get involved." Kiba said irritated.

"I just waited back for you to set off any trap they might have set, but I uncovered all of them. Looks like they're just as bad at setting traps as they're fighting." Narutos voice ranged out.

"We're not bad fighters. You're the one hiding." Sakon said angered.

"Really. Let's ask your brother if I'm a good fighter." An object flies out of the trees. The object hit Sakon and fell to the ground. Sakon looked at the object to see his brothers head.

"Ahhhhhh. Brother!" Sakon said stepping back.

"What the. Sakon it's just a rock?" Kidomaru questioned.

"He in a Genjutsu. Stay alert and think quicker." The white haired teen said.

"Yea sir." Kidomaru responded.

Naruto jumped down from the tree landing in front of the three and next to his captured teamates. "Neji. The web is connected through chakra. Use your abilities to get everyone free." Naruto said summoning his katana.

"Turn back or die." The white haired teen threatened.

"Well I could easily kill those two, but you should be a little interesting. I refuse. Give back the Uchiha." Naruto demanded.

"He came willingly." The white haired teen responded.

"I don't care. Hes blinded by hatred. He can't think clearly cause of that mark. Now. Give. Him. Back." Naruto stepped foward.

"Take Saskue to Lord Orochimaru. Me and Sakon will kill him. Go now." The white haired teen demanded. Kidomaru did what he was told as he took off. At the same time Neji has freed himself, Rock Lee, and Shilamaru.

"You three go after the four armed freak. I'll get these two." Naruto ordered. Naruto stared the his opponent down. "What's your name?" Naruto asked.

"Kimimaro." Kimimaro said raising his hand as he pointed his fingers at Naruto. Bones protruded from the tops of his fingers and shot at Naruto. Naruto easily deflected them with his sword. "Strong sword, but I'll wi-" Kimimaro was cut off with a kick to the gut. He was sent through a tree and didn't stop until he went through two more.

"That was easy." Naruto turned around to help the others out of their prison. Naruto brought his katana up in time to block a sword made of bone cutting him down the middle. Kimimaro now had half his body covered in the curse mark. Kimimaro formed a bone sword in his left hand and jabbed at Narutos gut with increased speeds. Kimimaro switch between his left and his right hand as he sent jabs and swipes at Naruto.

Naruto either dodge or blocked with his katana. Kimimaro brought both of his bone sword down at Naruto. Naruto blocked by holding his katana sideways I'm front of him. He reinforced it by putting his palm on the back of the katana. "You belong to the Kaguya clan. I though they all died." Naruto said as they fought for dominance.

"They did die. I'm the last remaining member." Kimimaro responded with a face showing no expression.

"Then why follow Orochimaru. Why not try to rebuild it?" Naruto asked.

"Lord Orochimaru gave me purpose. Even if I wanted to I'm slowly dieing. I have very bad illnesses." Kimimaro answered.

"I could tell that. The breaths you take when your not tired. If I try I can even hear the eird heart beats you have." Naruto responded. Kimimaro bent his knee towards Naruto.

"Am I overpowering him. I though I wasn't putting that much strength. No wait." Naruto jumped back. To long bone spike shot out of Kimimaros knees barely missing the blonde. Naruto threw shuriken towards Kimimaro who easily reflected them.

Kimimaro charged at Naruto. Little spikes poked out of the back of his heels. Spikes came out of his elbows as well. Kimimaruto swiped down with his bone sword. Naruto side stepped. Kimimaro did a backwards round kick. Naruto leaned back as the bone spike on Kimimaros heel scratched his mask. Naruto then jumped back.

"I like this mask." Naruto said dissapearing and then reappearing next to Kimimaro. A nine shot out of his shoulder impaling Naruto on the shoulder only for it to turn to dust. Kimimaro eyes widened. He looked down to see Naruto come out of the ground. Narutos katana cut onto Kimimaros chin as he jumped backwards now in the Curse Mark Stage Two Mode.

"Almost got you. Come on hopeful you can so better than that." Naruto said. Kimimaro touched the ground. Naruto jumped as a large bone shot from the ground. Naruto landed next to his bonded team as he shot chakra through his sword and quickly cut them free.

"Run. This is to dangerous for you guys." Naruto said as they jumped away towards the others direction. Naruto jumped again as many more spikes came out of the ground. Naruto landed on a tree branch looking at the now field of bone. Tree where destroyed and now replaced with bone spikes.

Naruto ducked as Kimimaro shot up a swiped his bone sword at Naruto.Naruto jumped to another branch as he blocked more bone fragments ent his way. Kimimaro landed next to him and swiped again cutting the branch they where on. Naruto fell towards a bone spike. He summoned a clone and jumped off of it to a tree leaving the clone to her impaled by a spike.

Naruto ran up the tree as bone fragments shot towards him. He jumped backwards and over the spike landing on the same branch Kimimaro was on. Naruto swung his katana at Kimimaro hitting his chest only for to bounce off. Kimimaro went to impale Naruto but Naruto jumped away to fast.

"Your bones are very hard. You can summon them to anywhere you want and make an infinite amount of them impatiently. You would easily kill any other opponent. But I'm not a normal opponet." Naruto said disappearing. Kimimaros eyes widened.

Naruto reappeared next to him as he swiped his katana at Kimimaros side. Kimimaro blocked but the force behind the blow sent him off the tree. Kimimaro was mid air when he got kicked in the back and flew into the air fifteen feet above the tree line. Naruto reappeared in front of Kimimaro.

Kimimaro reacted fast and stabbed Naruto in the gut only for him to turn to smoke. Kimimaro eyes widened again as his hir was grabbed and thrown towards the ground at an alarming speed. Kimimaro was sent towards one of his spikes in the ground.

Kimimaro formed bone I'm his chest as he impacted with his own spike. The spike broke through his armour and went through him. He coughed up blood. The spike was was a midway in him. Naruto landed on Kimimaro sendimg him further into the spike. Kimimaros body slide down the spike. The spike slowly went through him stopping right before it touched Naruto genitalia.

"It s-seems I've l-lost." Kimimaro said coughing more blood.

"Yep." Naruto said swinging his katana down decapitating Kimimaro. He then looked up to see the mess. "Where are the others?" Naruto asked as a huge fire ball blew into the air. "Great. Wait where is Sakon?" Naruto questioned as he looked around and then chuckled.

Sakon was impaled by many spikes in the ground. "Friendly fire." Naruto said jumping towards his teamates.

Shikamaru and the rest-

Kiba gets hit with a fist sending him back into a rock. He then gets hit in the gut and falls to the ground coughing up blood. Akamaru drips next to him. "Saskue Uchiha. I shall defeat you so you will not hurt any more of your comrades." Rock Lee shouted holding a thumbs up.

"Hahaha." Saskue laughed evily as Mark's spread through his body. Saskue charged at Rock Lee. He planted his right fist into Rock Lee's face sending him flying.

"Impressive speed." Rock Lee said pulling himself out of a boulder. "First, Second, Third Gate open!" Rock Lee shouted Saskue activated his Two Tampe Sharingan as he went to the Second Stage of The Curse Mark.

Rock Lee charged at Saskue throwing a fist and then a kick. Saskue dodged each one.He kneed Rock Lee caiseimg him to hunch over. Saskue then grabbed the back of Lee's neck and threw him into the side of a mountain.

Rock Lee charged at Saskue and Saskue charged at Lee. Saskue grabbed Lee's face and shoved back into the mountain. He threw a barrage of punches and kicks at Lee. He hit Lee over and over before a burst of chakra pushed Saskue back.

"Fourth Gate. Open!" Rock Lee shouted charging at Saskue. Saskue dodged a kick and then punched Lee in the face sending him flying and causeing Lee to land on his back.

"Chidori!" Saskue yelled. Black Lightning formed in his hand as chirping could be heard. He charged at Lee and a jumped onto the air as he brought his fist down towards Lee.

Lighting burned Lee's skin, but that all that happened. Saskue looked at his arm to see a hand has grabbed his fist before either connected with Rock Lee. "Now Saskue. You're not suppost to use that against allies." Naruto said throwing his hand away. Saskue growled and punched Naruto I'm the gut. The fist connected but had no affect suprising Saskue.

Naruto reeled his fist back hitting Saskue in the gut causeing Saskue to spit up blood and bend over. Naruto brought Saskues head into his knee causeing Saskues head to shoot up and blood came out of his nose. Naruto brought his fist back and hit Saskue in the chest causing Saskue to fly backwards. Saskue skirted across the ground as he hit the same mountain he drove Lee in.

Saskue tried to climb out but was stopped when a katana was held to his neck. "Don't try it." Naruto said as he stared Saskue down.

"Hurry up. Some of us need medical attention." Shikaru said as he limped toward. Naruto looked at him.

"Hang on." Naruto said irritated by his interruption. Naruto heard chirping as he looked back at Saskue to see a chidori meet his katana breaking it in half. Naruto eyes widened as his mothers sword was broken in half.

Saskue then tried piercing Naruto hut but it was caught by Naruto who squeezed Saskues hand breaking it. Saskue screamed in pain.

"You broke it. My mothers katana. That was very important to me you know." Naruto said looking Saskue in the eyes as he grabbed his throat. Sparks of lighting sparked from Narutos body. The wind picked up as water from the atmosphere started to float near Naruto. Then Naruto started to leak orange chakra.

Naruto nails grew long and sharp. The lightning turned purple as the wind sped up and water from a nearby stream rushed towards Naruto destroying any tree in it way. Saskue choked up blood.

"Stop. You shouldn't kill him." A voice from behind Naruto called.

"Kakashi?" Naruto questioned as he turned to see the grey haired ninja standing there. Beside him was Jiraiya along with a couple of other Jonnin. "What's gonna stop me?" Naruto asked as he held the nail of his thumb against Saksue neck drawing a little blood.

"Well have to stop you." Kakashi said. Naruto raised his hand and brought it down in a karate chop motion. They jumped out the way as a ripple of wind was sent charging towards them. The wave missed but designated the ground including the trees behind them.

"Fire Style: Fireball Jutsu!" Kakashi yelled. A fireball shot towards Naruto. Naruto raised his hand as water rose and stopped the charging fireball.

"Listen. I know that sword may have been important to you, but it's not worth taking a life." Jiraiya said. Naruto darted his eyes towards Jiraiya.

"Are you saying. My mother isnt worth it!" Naruto go of Saskue and darted towards Jiraiya. Naruto went for a right punch, but Jiraiya dodged. Jiraiya jumped back.

"Keep him busy for a minute." Jiraiya asked as he bit his thumb and pulled out a scroll. He slammed his hand down. "Summonimg Jutsu!" Jiraiya yelled. Gamabunta appeared.

"What is it Jiraiya?" Gamabunta asked as he now noticing Naruto. "What's up with th kid?" Gamabunt asked.

"I need you to keep him busy." Jiraiya asked.

"Okay." Gamabunta said as he pulled out his katana. Gamabunta got in a fighting stance.

Naruto dodged a punch from Kakashi and kicked him away. He then looked a Gamabunta. He raised his hand and waved sideways. Gamabunta was sent flying as wind pushed him away. He was sent into some nearby trees.

"That chakra signature. I recognize it. It cant be." Jiraiya thought dodging a wave of Wind Bullets.

"Don't get to close.His water defenses stop and fire based attacks. I don't know what his Lightning does." Kakashi warned as he landed.

"I dont want to kill you. I just want to kill the Uchiha. Hes a traitor anyways." Naruto said turning around.

"Now!" A Jonnin yelled jumping towards Naruto. Naruto turned towards the shinobi and held out his palm.

"Shockers Wrath." Naruto said as a stream of Lightning shot from his arm hitting the Jonnin Jonnin causeing him to fly back past the others.

"To be so strong in his affinities. I've never seen anything like this." One Jonnin said.

"Yes. I agree." Another agreed.

"Combined attack!" Jiraiya and Gamabunta yelled. Gamabunta spat a stream of oil at Naruto as Joraiya ignited it causing a rush of fire. Naruto looked and didnt react in time as it it him sending him flying. Naruto it a rock as he looked up.

"It cant be." Kakashi said as his eyes widened. Naruto felt his face realizing his mask has been broken. He looked at the others.

"Naruto?" Jiraiya questioned. "Is that really you?" Jiraiya asked. Naruto flashed next to his sword before flashing away again out of sight.

"Was that really him? It couldn't be." Kakashi questioned his Sharingan.

-Village Hidden In The Whirlpools-

Naruto landed by the gate as he looked up blood. "I've never used it for so long before. I used my body to much." Naruto said as he collapsed and lost consciousness.
