I readied myself by taking out my sword from its sheath. The sword was on my back. I was wearing a black armour that only covers the front and the back. Under it was a mesh shirt made of iron, over some clothes to provide another layer of protection. My clan has armour with black color. I had a bandana around my head with my clan's insignia. The sign was One circle that has a much smaller one inside it. I am now about to face real shinobi. Suddenly, some tears started falling on my cheeks. I could not control my emotions.
FUCK, FFFFFUUUUUCCCCKKK, WHY? WHY DID IT COME TO THIS? ONLY SIX YEARS AGO....ONLY SIX YEARS AGO, I WAS ABOUT TO BE A NORMIE. NOW I AM FIGHTING TO PROTECT A MAN IN HIS 40S. MOREOVER, THAT MAN DOES NOT CARE WHETHER I DIE OR NOT. I AM JUST A TOOL FOR HIS SURVIVAL. FUCK, FFFFFFUUUUUCCCCKKKKKKKK YYYYOOOOOUUUUUU AAAAAABBBBBUUUUURRRRRRAAAAAAMMMMMEEEE....
[Fuma-Clan-person-1]: I think I saw a tear falling on his left cheek.
[Fuma-Clan-person-2]: No, I think he is sweating. We are standing a little behind him and he is a proper shinobi, haven't you seen his fire style. Even though he is six, maybe close to seven, a shinobi like him will never cry. He is probably just worried because this is his first battle. Both of us are in our early twenties but I think we both remember our first battle.
[Fuma-Clan-person-1]: You are right,maybe it was sweat. Let's get ready. When he signals then we will both use wind-style to increase the range of his fire-style.
[Fuma-Clan-person-2]: Yup.
Kouske: UAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH.....
Kouske screamed and ran towards the 10 O'clock direction with his sword drawn.
…
Kouske: Hey, Aburame bastards. Come suck on this dick, you mo**** f*****s.
[Fuma-Clan-person-1]: Oi, what are you doing? Also, why are you getting further away? Oi, you are running faster than us.
[Fuma-Clan-person-2]: I think the pressure broke him. We have to keep up with him. If he dies then it will be difficult for just the two of us to face 4 Aburame. What's more, we do not know any fire jutsu. Also, how did this child learn to cuss?
Kouske: Oi, you Fuma people, on my signal use shuriken to attack. I will also throw shuriken. Also, we need to get them to drop their guard so that fire Jutsu is a certain hit. So, wait for my signal. I will swear at you, when I do it the first time that will be the signal for you to throw shurikens. When I do it the second time, that will be for wind-style.
[Fuma-Clan-person-1 & Fuma-Clan-person-2]: Why would you swear at us?
…
Kouske and his gang were running on the ground and now they could see 4 Aburame in front of them. Coming towards them, jumping from tree to tree.
[Aburame-squad-leader]: Give priority to our mission. Three of us will hold them down and one will go to finish the job. We will change the plan in an unexpected situation.
[Aburame squad members]: Hai!
After receiving the reply from his subordinates, the squad leader sped up.
[Squad-leader: Shunshin no Jutsu]
His speed increases as if teleporting a short distance. But suddenly, he felt danger and brought his arms in-front of him to block an attack. To his astonishment, one of his enemies was already in front of him kicking.
Kouske: You are not the only one to master the "Shunshin no Jutsu" sealess f**ker.
[Taijutsu: Kouske style-Whirlwind]
Boom
The squad leader was sent flying with immense force. Kouske has already learnt to increase the strength of his blows using chakra. He basically wanted Tsunade's strength with Guy or Lee's speed. He tried to fight in Guy's style of taijutsu. At least, he derived his taijutsu thinking that it would be similar to Guy's style.
One of the Aburame was hit by the flying squad leader and both were sent towards the ground. The other two stopped on the trees.
Boom
Both hit the ground and then bounced once before falling separately.
Kouske relished that he was able to take 2 opponents out but his happiness was only momentary.
FFFFUUUUCKKKK, Of course, Insect clones.
The enemies he sent flying to the ground turned to insects and started flying.
He was now hanging on a tree trunk using chakra in his left hand and in his feet with the sword in his right hand, which was hanging. He looked at the 2 Aburame's on the trees and squinted his eyes. He was under the suspicion that these two are clones as well. He started to sense them. Also he used his special jutsu.
[Chakra Sense Scan Jutsu]
FUCK, THESE CRAFTY ABURAME. TWO INFRONT ARE ALSO CLONES AS I CAN SENSE 4 SIGNATURES SEVERAL METERS BEHIND THEM HIDING IN TREES. IF I HAD USED THE FIRE-STYLE, THEN THEY WOULD HAVE RETREATED AND THEN I WOULD BE OUT OF CHAKRA. THIS TIME I WAS LUCKY. WHEN THE FUCK DID THEY CREATED CLONES AND SWITCH WITH THEM? SOMETIMES I REALLY HATE THIS FUCKING NARUTO VERSE. HMM...I see the scattered chakra to 9 'O Clock in my visualisation in my mind. FUCK, FUCK, FUCK, THEY ARE SENDING THEIR INSECTS BY SCATTERING THEM AND IN LITTLE AMOUNT FROM LEFT. THEIR GOAL IS TO SEND THOSE INSECT TO EITHER SURPRISE ATTACK MY SQUAD OR DIRECTLY TAKE OUT THE DIAMYO BASTARD. SHIT, WHY DOES MY FIRST MISSION HAS TO BE SO DIFFICULT? THE INSECT ARE A 15 METERS AWAY AND THIS IS A FOREST SO I CAN NOT DIRECTLY BURN THEM USING FIRE-STYLE. MOREOVER, THEY ARE SCATTERED SO UNLESS I DO COMBINATION WITH THE FUMA PEOPLE, I CAN NOT BURN ALL OF THEM. WHAT'S MORE, I AM SURE THE ABURAME IN THE FRONT WOULD ATTACK IF I DO SOMETHING ABOUT THEM. SHIT, IT IS LIKE I AM ALREADY CHECKED IN CHESS.
All the thoughts passed in an instant and then a decision was made. Kouske jumped back towards his teammates, who were standing ready on the ground. They were shocked when Kouske exploded with speed and kicked two Aburame flying. But then they got ready as they thought they would be receiving the signal to release shurikens. But Kouske just landed in-front of them and made a hand sign behind his back. This was a sign for them to retreat.
[Fuma-Clan-person-1]: What?
[Fuma-Clan-person-2]: Why?
Kouske: Just trust me. I am about to lay down a smoke screen.
He said this and threw smoke bombs under their feet. The bombs exploded and the smoke started spreading.
…
Aburame-squad-leader, who was hiding behind a tree.
[Aburame-squad-leader]: What are they doing? Should I attack? Did they figure out our plan? No, that is not possible. The insects are too scattered and too few in numbers. We know there are sensors among them but even a sensor can not sense so few insects. Specially, when they are moving while being scattered. Still, that child is not a child, he is a proper shinobi. I think he is even faster than me. If I was in my clone's place I would be dead or seriously injured. His shunshin was perfect and his speed was a little faster than mine. Also, his strength was amazing. How did such strength come from such a tiny body? If any other member of my squad faces him, he will die. That child is not from the Fuma clan, the sign of the clan on his bandana, I might have seen somewhere but I do not remember. If that child is a sensor then I do not know how good he is. Also, how far is his range? Maybe he has already sensed me and my squad behind the clones. Now what to do? The two remaining clones have also stopped and are just looking towards the smoke. Hmm...Let's make one clone and have it attack with the other clones. If our insects reach the target from the right side then our mission is effectively done. Inuzuka would not be happy but I am happy none of my clansmen got injured yet.
The squad leader gave signals to his squad and informed them of the plan. The one member who's clone was also destroyed created a clone. The squad leader clone and the other clone came out jumping.
The new clones joined the previous ones. The smoke they were looking towards cleared and there was nobody there.
Aburame-squad-leader: Shit, they retreated. That child is probably a sensor. When he saw our clones then he probably started sensing. He found our signatures behind the clones and knew something was up. Scatter your insects around to make sure he is not hiding with his squad. That child is dangerous. I do not want to get surprise attacked.
They scattered their insects around to do a round.
[Aburame-squad-member-1]: No one is around. I think he retreated with his squad. We should follow.
[Aburame-squad-leader]: No, I have a feeling this is a trap. Somehow, my instincts are just screaming at me. Stay hidden here. If our insects reach the target then our mission is done.
[Aburame-squad-member-2]: What if they reached the carriage already? They will start attacking our insects.
[Aburame-squad-leader]: Then we will follow and attack again. We have numerical advantage anyway.
…
Just as the Aburame squad finished their talk.
[Kouske-in-his-mind: Fire-Style: Fireball Jutsu]
[Fuma-person-1-in-his-mind: Wind-Style: Great Breakthrough]
[Fuma-person-2-in-his-mind: Wind-Style: Great Breakthrough]
A fire appeared from above and got enhanced by the wind-style and covered a large area.
[Aburame-squad-leader]: Wha...What? How? Everyone Ret...
He could not finish his words as he and his squad members were doused in enhanced fire. There was a big explosion and then an area of about 7 meters in diameter in the forest was on fire.
Kouske: Huh...huh...huh....I....have....only...about...15%..huh....chakra...huh...remaining.
Kouske said while taking long breaths on a branch. The tree was burning from below and the branch he is on will probably catch fire soon.
[Fuma-Clan-person-1]: Still, you were right. What about the insects going for the daimyo?
Kouske: I can sense that those insects are moving all around as if they lost their chain of commands. What I am sure of is that they have stopped going for the diamyo.
[Fuma-Clan-person-2]: These sealing tags you created, that hide presence, smell, noise of feet while moving and even chakra are amazing. Although, these have burned when we used our jutsus in combination.
Kouske: That is why I asked you to not even use Shunshin and follow me with only chakra on your hands and feet. Any more chakra and these tags will not be able to hide you.
[Fuma-Clan-person-1]: Still this was quite an easy fight. We just spread smoke, put tags on us and climbed the trees closest to us and got above the clones. Then we just hopped on the tree branches using as less chakra as possible and got above the real ones. We hid and when they let their guard down we combined our jutsus and bam, all the enemies were ashes.
Kouske: My initial plan was that once they think we retreated then they will move toward the carriage. We will then ambush from behind using shurikens coated with your wind-style. That way I would have saved some chakra. I was already low on it but that squad leader was quite crafty. He did not move. He knows he has the advantage and his other plan is already in motion so even if he stays, he could take out the diamyo. Due to this, I had to use the combination jutsu with you guys. Now my chakra is about to run out. I do not think I can use another Fire-style.
[Fuma-Clan-person-1]: Do not worry, you did your job well. Also, as a shinobi who has been on the battlefield for 14 years, as I am 22 now, Your performance was amazing.
[Fuma-Clan-person-2]: Yeah, we will put in a good word for you when we get back. Now let's return. We need to provide support.
Kouske: I will come but you know, do not expect me to use a jutsu.
[Fuma-Clan-person-1]: Do not worry. You have already done enough. Let your seniors take it from here.
