12 -=The forest of Plotholes...=- rewritten

Team 7 is currently walking in the Forest of Death, the second stage of the Chunnin exams consists of a survival test. The teams need to reach the tower of go-*Cough* not that one, the tower at the center of the forest in less than 5 days, each team has either a heaven or a earth scroll, to complete the test your team need to reach the tower in less than five days with one of each of the scrolls.

"Team at our left, 200M, weak" Naruto informs team 7 of a team close to their team.

*Insert weak team getting bullied*

After getting the scroll they needed they start walking in the direction of the tower. But obviously they are atacked before even walking a minute...

A wild orochimaru appears.

Sasuke immediately freezes.

Sakura pass out right away, that's how weak she is.

Orochimaru probably didn't even use half of his killing intent.

Naruto, who is used to Kurama's killing intent, was not affected at all, so he immediately used a new jutsu he created

"Lighting style:Railgun" Naruto launched a ryo coin straight at Orochimaru

Orochimaru didn't dodge, his head was hit but Naruto didn't got careless, as soon as he was hit, Orochimaru turned into a TON of snakes, that made their way to Naruto

"Fire style:Great fireball" Naruto uses another jutsu and then hits Sasuke with a pebble

"GET YOURSELF TOGHETER! ARE YOU TRYING TO DIE AND TAKE US WITH YOU?" Naruto's words bring Sasuke back from wherever he was...

Orochimaru uses summoning jutsu and giant snake appears and launch Naruto away, it then follows after him.

"Kukuku, Now that the distraction is out of the way..." Orochimaru looks straight at Sasuke and licks his lips... creepy dude...

It was at that moment that Sasuke knew... He was fu--

-=-

"Rasengan"

Naruto hits the snake right as it jumps on him, the snake can't take that much damage, so it turns into smoke.

"Now that thats taken care of, i need to go bac-"

"Oh no you dont!" A voice calls from behind Naruto, Naruto jumps away from his spot and puts his guard up

'i didnt sense him coming close, he is dangerous'

The strange figure appears right in front of Naruto and atacks him with what seems like a sword, Naruto could not dodge in time so he blocks it, after he got his perception increased by his namikaze bloodline awakening, he is the same spot as Sasuke was when he fough Lee, he can see the attack clearly but his body is not fast enough to react to it. But his chains can.

"Hoh? you blocked it? that's impresive" The figure, apparently surprised by Naruto being able to block his attack comments.

Naruto has a bad feeling about this.

The figure flickers behind Naruto who dodges by instinct

'He didnt use chakra!! he is faster than Lee!'

Naruto now seeing the severity of the situation, decides to go all out

'he is faster than me so jutsus that use hand signs will be useless'

He then forms a rasengan in both hands and enters his one tailed chakra cloak, The figure doesn't show any reaction however, Naruto flickers and appears in front of the figure but when his rasengan makes contact with it he pass through. 'What?'

[This jutsu...]

Naruto has no time to dodge as he feels the air leaving his lungs, he could not even see the attack so he knows that he has no chance of winning this fight, as if sensing this the figure smirked

"What? you are giving up already? As expected, Trash will remain trash huh..." After he said that he punched Naruto with a puch that in no way lost to Tsunade in strengh.

When he turned to leave he looked behind him in surprise, Naruto with an angry look on his face and blood driping from his forehead, was on his feet again, a second tail formed of chakra appeared behind him

"Who do you think that you are..."

"Impressive to think that yo-"

"I WILL MAKE YOU PAY FOR WHAT YOU JUST SAID!!!" Naruto becomes a blur as he appears in front of his target in less than a second, he punches the figure with all of his strengh,But the figure dodges

"Heh, Impressive but you cannot win against me kid"

"I will see that myself." Naruto takes a deep breath...

"I never used this before... so if you die, i am not sorry about it!

Swift release: God speed

Scorch release: blazing inferno" As Naruto's words left his mouth, his figure becomes a blur, ten mini suns appeared behind him (Like the gudoudamas after Naruto unlocks Ashura's chakra)

"What? thats impos-" The figure is cut off, by a flaming punch

"Scorch release: Hiken" Naruto's fists are covered in yellowish flames, any punch would hurt a lot, if you take his speed into consideration then...

"Ack!" The figure exclaims, but when Naruto tries to hit him again, he disappears in a red flash

"WHAT! HIRAISHIN? HOW?" Naruto exclaimed

"I need to admit... you got me there kid... But i cannot loose here! Copy Mangekyou Sharingan!" As the figure says that, a red skeletal chakra structure appears around him

"Oh damn, why do i need to fight this freak?"

[Kit, use it]

'You sure? that can make me pass out right?'

[You prefer pasaing out or dying?]

'You got a point...'

"First gate, Second gate, third gate... OPEN" Naruto opens 3 gates, two more tails appear behind him as he readies himself.

"Byakko" Naruto hears a voice behind the susanoo

A enormous chakra tiger, made of wind, jumps on the susanoo.

"Master, i came to help, Shizen and Shizuki are helping your team" Karasa said as he appears at Naruto's side.

Naruto only nods, he is under too much pressure to talk.

Karasa starts making hand signs as Naruto jumps in direction of the enemy, he charges a enormous rasengan and smashes it at the susanoo, but no damage is visible...

"Another one huh..." The figure says as red bubbling chakra starts to form around him

'Is he a jinchurikki?'

[No he isn't, he seems able to use other people's abilities with his jutsu...]

Naruto has a bad feeling, But he doesn't stop throwing punches and kicks at the susanoo.

The figure then says in a low voice something Naruto can't hear and then shouts

"TSUKUYOMI!" and Karasa falls to the ground

Naruto pales

'He can copy even that?'

He decided to end everything with his last attack, Naruto crouches down, and starts to charge a massive ammount of chakra at his mouth.

"Bijuudama" Naruto's last attack made the susanoo crack, it almost broke and the figure had blood flowing from were his eyes are. But he is still standing... Naruto despairs, he could not move right now, he used the gates, so his body is badly damaged, it will heal in less than an hour but he doesn't have this kind of time.

He also instantly charged a bijuudama, placing too much burden on his chakra channels.

"That...Haaah... Almost....Haaah....Killed me....Haaah....You moron....." The figure said between breaths.

He starts to approach Karasa, and Naruto's heart sank, He didn't know the guy, but as fellow shameless brothers, he felt connected to the kid. And their team is only at konoha because of him, he only came to this fight to help Naruto...

'No...no....NOOOO-'

[Kit calm down, he isn't emanating any bad intention to that kid]

Naruto doesn't hear Kurama, he is feeling he is lost in thoughts of guilt, rage and helplessness...

'IT WILL NOT END LIKE THAT' Naruto's eyes turn into vertical slits, golden slits, the glow in his eyes attract the attention of the figure

"What in the..."

Naruto, as if ignoring his injures, gets up and points his hand at the figure, The words come to him naturally.

"You will pay for that! SHINRA TENSEI!" A strong pushing force hits the figure violently, injuring him and launching him away, Naruto falls Uncouncious right after...

He didn't notice, but he tapped into Ashura's chakra just now...

After 5 minutes, the figure comes back, his arm is twisted in a strange way, and he has bruises all over his now uncovered face, his crimson hair with golden points is disheveled...

"Kaaaahh....Hhaaaaah....haaaaah.. Damn, I almoat died... for real this time... To think that you would surprise me so much... in just one day Naruto...

Enought of that... he used gates, bijuu chakra, scorch release and swift release, a bijuudama and a attack similar to what rhe leader of akatsuki can use... he must be almost dead... I need to heal him... and that other kid as well...

Man... Itachi made it seem so easy to just beat your young brother.... why is his brother so weak and mine such a freak?"

As the figure says that, he approaches Naruto and Karasa and starts to heal them with Iryo ninjutsu.

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

Naruto wakes up inside of a tree, at first he is confused but after remembering what just happened he finds it even more confusing

'I am alive?'

[I think so]

'but how?'

[That guy healed you and the other kid]

'Huh? but why?'

[After he came back he aaid something abo-]

*BANG*

Kurama is interrupted by a loud sound outside of the tree that his team was using as a base. Naruto walks out and sees the 3 sound nin atacking Sasuke and Sakura, but there is a difference from the cannon... they also have cursed marks for some reason, The sound girl is stepping on Sakura's face the dude Sasuke breaks the arms in cannon is giving Sasuke a beating and their leader is fighting Lee... but Lee is almost fainting for some reason, he looks like he will fall at any moment.

Naruto jumps in the direction of Lee and tries to use his chakra to flicker... just to notice that he... cannot use chakra 'what is this?'

[A seal i guess]

'Damn, i need to end this quickly, but...'

Naruto appears in front of Lee that was just pushed back by the sound nin, he does not waste time with useless talk and atacks as soon as he sees a flaw on his oppenent's instance.

Naruto punches him on the left of the head, but he dodges and tries to counter Naruto with a kick that Naruto blocks with a kick of his own, they engage in a taijutsu fight and Lee that was pushed back uses this chance to save Sakura and help Sasuke against his opponent.

When Sasuke, Sakura and Lee fall to the ground exhausted the sound nin lets Naruto hit him, surprising Naruto who ends up not noticing his enemy hands shaking. A blast of sound launches Naruto back and the sound nin shifts his focus to the 3 exhausted gennins. Naruto sees everything around him slowing down seconds pass like hours but he does not have any way of saving them as his chakra is blocked.

'no,no, NO. I NEED to save him, I cant let Lee die here' Naruto ignores Sasuke and Sakura as they are 'protected by plot armor' but Lee isn't. and Lee is one of Naruto's close friends.He tries to find a solution but fails every time. He starts to panic but then he hears a voice

'Do you want to save him?'

"OF COURSE I WANT!"

'But why? Is he even whort it?'

"SHUT UP! HE IS MY FRIEND AND IF LEE ISN'T WORTH SAVING, NO ONE ELSE IS!"

'Good answer, but let me ask you something. Why are you trying so hard to save him,but ignores the other 2?'

"I never considered myself a good person, I'm no saint who tries to save every person that he can. I only care about my friends and family, THATS WHY I NEED TO HELP HIM!"

'... very well, i will help you. My name is ######, Hold your hand in front of you and call me.'

Naruto is confused as he did not undestand the name that the voice said, but even then as he has a chance to save his friend, he does what the voice said and strangelly can 'feel' the name that he didn't understand before, as if he always knew it but forgot...

"Then... i will be counting on you.

Lets finish this in one attack... UZURYU" The words come to Naruto without him even noticing it.

Time moves normally again, when the jutsu was about to hit the 3, they close their eyes preparing for the worst... but nothing happens.

They open their eyes just to see Naruto, Standing between them and the sound nin with a sword in his hand, glowing crimson.

""Naruto?"" Sasuke and Sakura said, Lee was not in condition to say anything as he was only awake because of his insane willpower.

"Hey,kid. You are not scared are you?"

"What?" Sasuke can't understand why Naruto asked him this, he is currently with his cursed mark active so he fells like he has infinite strengh, if he was not defeated previously he would have atacked Naruto righ now

"You coward..." Naruto looks at Sakura next

"Even tough you are useless, i am proud that you could fight even knowing tgat there was no way for you to win."

"What are you talking about? Naruto?" Sakura is really confused by Naruto's words

"Lee, Sorry that i could not help sooner..." Lee cant answer but Naruto can feel his emotions, so he knows that Lee was alright

"But now... Have no fear, for i am here"

"""WHAT?""" Sasuke, Sakura and the sound nin shouts at the same time

-=WE ARE HAVING TECHNICAL DIFFICULTIES, PLEASE STAND BY=-

"But now... let me handle this guy..." Naruto disapears from his place and appears behind the sound nin.

Team 7 and Lee's eyes widen at his speed, even Sasuke with his 2 tome's sharingan and cursed mark cant follow his speed

The sound nin doesn't move until Naruto sheathed his sword and said

"Death in one thousand cuts, Kami Chigiri"

Hundreds of cuts appear on the sound ninja's skin, no fatal area was hit but if he was not treated quickly he would die of blood loss.

Naruto opens his mouth to say something but he feels the world spinning. Before he falls on the ground he sees that someone caught him, he loses conscious right after.

Naruto was not able to use his chakra so he didnt sense team 8, 9 and 10 watching the fight...

----------------------

In a village at the border of the land of fire and the land of water, two cloaked figures are discussing something fervently

"No way! My little brother could hand your little brother's ass to him, at least 1000 times before getting hit" Says the crimson haired one

"You are overestimating your brother, just like you overestimate yourself. There is no way that my brother would lose a fight agains someone from the same age as him" The black haired one answers while sipping his tea.

"Im telling ya, he almoat killed me, he used swift release, scorch release, bijuu chakra, the gates, a bijuudama and a attack just like Pain can do!" The crimson haired figure said, But no one would believe such ' exaggerated tale ' especially when considering the one saying it...

"Enough of that. We need to complete our mission on this village and return quickly. The boss said that we would need to go in an important mission 2 months from now..." The black haired figure suddently puts a stop in their discussion

"Geez, Itachi you are too serious about this... is not like we cant just teleport back to the HQ after we finish here..." The crimson haired figure answers

"Not every shinobbi is like you, who can just eleport anywhere any time they want, you know that." Itachi says

"But i am here, and i can just teleport us back." The crimson haired figure points to himself

"Anyway lets go finish this stupid mission..." The rimson haired figure says with boredom on his voice as he walks on the direction of their 'objective'

"You keep changing your mood sudently, you never change do you
