49 Hey..That's Pretty Good.

Naruto and Gaara knew that Jeanne will not be easily defeated.

Naruto then got an idea and whisper towards Gaara, since Jeanne was after their friends within, they can choose the ground where they are at.

Naruto quickly punches the nearby wall creating a hole and both of them make a run for it towards outside the building.

Jeanne who saw this simply chase after them with a massive grin on her face.

"Where do you think you are going little lamb?

Where would you hide that I won't find you?

Where where you run that I won't chase you."

Jeanne enjoys toying with them immensely, it does not matter what they plan for Jeanne is superior here and she was confident that they will not be able to defeat her.

After quite a long chase, Naruto and Gaara suddenly stopped and turn around to face Jeanne.

Jeanne who saw her prey had stopped running gave a disappointed look.

"Aw, are we out of energy...have you finally decide to fight me instead of running like a coward?"

Jeanne continues to taunt the two.

Both of them didn't say anything but began forming hand seal.

Jeanne did not stop them, she wishes to see what they will do and crush that hope.

Gaara wasted no time and unleash his technique that he has been working on to defeat Naruto.

"Heh Fūton: Mugen Sajin — Daitoppa"

Gaara who had inhaled the wind and exhales it resulting in a sandstorm now rushing towards Jeanne.

Jeanne simply swings her flag with her power and create an even stronger wind and cancel out the technique that Gaara had displayed.

Gaara then will the sand above Jeanne to drop

(Sand Hail)

Jeanne who saw then attack simply dodge them all easily and gracefully.

Gaara then uses Successive Shots Sand Drizzle and rapidly fire bullet like sand towards Jeanne to keep her busy.

Jeanne then twirls the flag around and reflecting all of it.

Naruto who had been silent all this time then made his move.

"Mokuton: Mokujin no Jutsu, Mokuton: Mokuryū no Jutsu"

A humanoid creature made out of tree then bust out of the ground and rushes towards Jeanne.

Jeanne who was deflecting the sand bullet from Gaara simply unsheath her sword and attempt to send a flame towards the creature, but an Eastern Dragon who is made out of wood suddenly burst out of the ground behind Jeanne and flick its tail towards the sword.

Jeanne who was not expecting this quickly change her sword direction and block the dragon attempt to disarm her.

Jeanne suddenly senses someone is approaching her turn around and deflect an attack by a halberd, she was surprised that the halberd was not broken by her sword yet.

Gaara who had used Ultimately Hard Absolute Attack: Spear of Shukaku and charge against her with a sand clone then proceed to use Sand Binding Coffin in an attempt to bind her.

Being besieged from all side, Jeanne simply kicks the ground hard and jump back to create a good distance.

Due to the ground impact, Jeanne was able to escape.

Jeanne starting to get irritated decide to use one of her skill.

"Dragon Witch"

Jeanne was then surprise that the wooden dragon could not be controlled, she then use her skill once more, but this time willing a summon.

"Fafnir, come and answer to your master's summon!"

A gigantic portal then appears beside Jeanne and a Dragon that was the same size as nine tail came out.

"ROOOAR"

Fafnir, the evil dragon featured in the Nibelungenlied, the Völsunga Saga, and Der Ring des Nibelungen had arrived.

The Humanoid creature and wooden dragon immediately charge towards Fafnir, but with a simple swipe of its claw, both of the attackers were easily destroyed.

Naruto and Gaara were shocked at the appearance of this dragon, especially after their friend warns them of the evil energy within that creature easily surpass even Kyuubi but it somehow possesses

little to no conscious and was akin to the Humanoid that Naruto had made.

Jeanne jumps up onto the head of Fafnir and command it to charge.

"GAARA BUY ME SOME TIME"

Naruto wasted no time proceed to gather more and more sage energy.

Gaara trusting Naruto, transform the land below Fafnir into sand.

Fafnir of course easily deflected the technique by simply blasting all of the ground away with its breath attack.

Gaara then used a massive amount of chakra and use Quicksand Waterfall Flow.

A gigantic tsunami wave made out of sand then quickly rushes against Fafnir in an attempt to crush it.

Fafnir seeing this charge up its breath attack to the max and unleash it.

Naruto and Gaara sensing the danger immediately dash away from their original position.

It proves to be correct as the breath attack Fafnir unleash easily destroyed the tsunami and the landscape.

Naruto, finally charged up look at Gaara giving his signal.

Gaara who caught it nod.

Naruto then grits his teeth and use one of the most powerful techniques of the wood release.

"Mokuton Hijutsu: Jukai Kōtan"

Countless tree suddenly sprouts up and quickly launches towards Fafnir, some tree branch even thicker than Fafnir.

Fafnir was having trouble dealing with so many of the tree branches and was finally bounded by the tree.

Jeanne who saw this unleash her flame around Fafnir and burn off the tree.

But every 10 destroyed, 50 takes its place.

It was a major pain to deal with as the wood was somehow more resistence towards her flame than before.

Gaara used this chance to try and bind the dragon again.

"Sabaku Sōtaisō Fūin"

With Gaara having a good relationship with Shikaku, they naturally work together and unleash one of the most powerful sealing technique.

Jeanne who saw this will Fafnir to use its breath attack.

Fafnir obeyed and open it's mouth charging the attack. But a tree branch suddenly binds it's mouth, preventing it from charging the attack.

Fafnir struggled vigoriously in an attempt to shake it off but was proved to be futile.

The sand slowly sealing Fafnir and Jeanne who saw this jump off of Fafnir and dismiss her summon.

Fafnir who was dismissed suddenly turn into light particle and disappeared.

Jeanne who felt very annoyed and irrtated right now attempt to quickly dispatch them.

Gaara who saw this surround Naruto and him in a coccoon of harden sand with Shikaku added protection.

Jeanne strikes it time and time again and still, the cocoon still stands and with every opening, more sand covered it up making it even stronger.

Jeanne was furious right now, she could not show her face anymore if any of her family knew about this.

Her..a member of the Demon Guardian unable to defeat 2 humans? Preposterous.

Jeanne prepares to use her Noble Phantasm again but this time without holding back, to damn with not killing them.

"All evil is here.

"The time for revenge has come!

"This is the roar of my soul that was polished by hatred...

"La Grondement Du Haine!"

And so the Noble Phantasm was unleashed again this time in full power.

Jeanne's anger had fueled the attack, even more, making it stronger.

The flame who was roaring towards the cocoon easily destroy the cocoon and Naruto and Gaara was forced to retreat in their fastest speed.

Even if they had barely escaped, they still suffered severe burn but nothing a Jinchuriki could not heal...in a couple of weeks.

Jeanne then will numerous black stakes to appear and launch it towards Naruto and Gaara.

"Genkai Hakuri No Jutsu"

A light pillar suddenly forms a wall between Naruto and Gaara.

The dust released with some effort then destroyed the stake.

"Heh, can't allow the younger generation to get the best of me...especially Minato little brat after all."

A, Terumi, Tsunade, Mifune and Oonoki who was floating beside them appeared beside Naruto and Gaara.
