Naruto made 1 Jounin clone and let him follow Sakura "What's this clone following me for?"
Naruto explained "We'll go our separate ways, this clone is more useful than you think. You can use this clone to use shadow clones and plan out your attacks. Basically this one clone is equivalent to the help of 100 genin shadow clones. You can help in the background when you have the chance."
Sakura nodded and disappeared from the spot with the clone following her.
Naruto snapped his fingers as he smiled "You ready? Sasuke? You better keep up!"
Sasuke snorted then grinned as his eyes turned into two tomoe Sharingans. "Who the hell do you think you're talking to?"
Naruto applied chakra to his feet and disappeared from the spot, Sasuke followed and rushed towards the two ninjas with the lady. And Slashed their necks with a kunai.
*Slash*
The necks of the ninjas were stabbed and they didn't even have the chance to scream and their body turned lifeless.
The lady with them simply grinned at them and said "What outstanding ninjas but… you two are not a match against me."
Naruto and Sasuke snorted as they used a tree as a stepping stone and rushed towards the lady with a kunai.
The lady simply smiled at them that sent goosebumps course through their skin as she jumped up and also stuck to a tree in the wall. She leaned back bit her thumb, weaved hand seals and touched the surface of the tree [Summoning: High Rank Snake]
(A/N: Okay… Let's put levels into the summoning jutsu. We'll go with normal size snakes or any other animals for low-rank, the next is the size where a man can ride the snake which will be named mid-rank, the next is a high rank that is about the size of a house. The next is the legendary rank which is the size of a tailed beast like Gamabunta.)
Poof!
Seal marks appeared from the tree and a snake came out at an incredible speed in Naruto's direction.
Hisssssss!
Sasuke screamed in panic as they couldn't dodge mid air "Naruto!"
Naruto was calm as he looked at the flying snake headed his way. The lady who was riding on the snake thought in surprise 'I don't sense panic nor fear… Why…?'
Before the snake reached Naruto, Naruto disappeared from mid air and appeared behind Sasuke. "Calm down, did you forget the seal I put on you?"
Sasuke snorted as he indeed forgot about it.
"Flying Thunder God Jutsu? Blonde hair… Oh… So you're his heir? You're more of a genius than your father…" The lady said in surprise.
Naruto looked at the lady with a solemn look as to how she knew the jutsu and she mentioned his father… Naruto summoned 3 genin clones "Who are you?" The three genin clones were weaving hand seals as he asked
"Kekeke…" The lady laughed like a maniac ignoring the question meanwhile the clones finished their seals and used their jutsus
[Wind Style: Spreading Wind] "Shhhh!"
Wind spread everywhere with wind chakra nature, and with Naruto in the middle weaved hand seals [Wind Style: Wind Dragon!]
The wind that was generated in the surrounding gathered in one spot and materialized into the shape of a dragon
Roar!
The dragon made out of wind roared and the lady looked at Naruto excitedly 'What a monster! He created a jutsu akin to an S-rank at his age?'
Sasuke looked at Naruto's wind dragon in shock 'He's more skilled than before!'
The dragon slithered into the air and rushed into the lady's position intending to swallow him alive.
The lady simply let her summoned snake try to collide with the dragon made out of wind.
Hisss!
As she approached the wind dragon, the power contained within it was stronger than she thought so he jumped away from the back of the snake and tried to see the aftermath of the jutsu.
Zzz! Tsss
The snake was swallowed by the wind dragon and it's body was cut all over the place like it was being attacked by a thousand needles all over his body. "Hissss!" poof! The summoned beast disappeared from the spot but the wind dragon wasn't finished yet.
Naruto injected more chakra to the wind dragon that transformed the dragon into a bigger dragon.
Roar!
Its form was now more condensed and another layer of wind was surrounding it's body.
This time, the lady that was fighting against him, put on a more solemn face as she looked at the wind dragon. 'This is bad, I can't dodge. I have to use that jutsu… That kid's jutsu is already causing a commotion… so I can only use that jutsu even if it got the attention of the ninjas in the village.'
"Try dodging this!" Naruto directed the dragon to fly in the lady's direction.
Roar!
The wind dragon drained the wind in the surroundings and Naruto's clones disappeared and flew in the lady's direction.
[Wind Style: Great Breakthrough!] "Ha!" the lady used this jutsu to send him flying away from the dragon and weaved hand seals
[Summoning: Five-Layer Rashomon]
The ground trembled as gates surfaced from the ground pushing the trees aside. 5 gates appeared consecutively in order to defend against the wind dragon.
Roar!
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
The wind dragon consecutively went through the 5th gate and hit the lady but its power greatly diminished from going through all the gates.
"Huff… huff… huff…" Breathing heavily, Naruto fell into the ground while Sasuke caught him and lent him an arm. "You okay?" he asked
Naruto laughed dryly as he replied weakly "Looks like I'm about to sleep for a day or two… I'll leave my life with you…"
Sasuke nodded
Naruto lost consciousness and all his clones disappeared throughout the forest.
Sakura ran in their direction and asked with a worried tone "Is Naruto okay?"
Sasuke nodded and replied "He just consumed most of his chakra."
"I see…" Sakura breathed a sigh of relief.
"Huff… huff… huff… What a monster… kekeke… huff…" The lady whose face was torn up like a mask. It looks like the lady was hiding her identity it looks like the face of a man with snake-like features.
"That consumed quite a lot of chakra… I should mark the Uchiha kid before the monster wakes up."
The snake-like man rushed in the direction of the team.
Sasuke with his Sharingan still active, noticed it. He said "Sakura. Take care of Naruto."
"Sure… but why?" Sakura asked in confusion
"That guy is back." Sasuke said solemnly
Sakura nodded as she put Naruto in the ground and brought out a [Barrier Scroll]. "Release!"
A barrier made out of chakra surrounded Naruto and Sakura inside, defending them from the outside force.
"Hoh… Barrier seal huh? Not many people know how to make that. Your team is full of surprises." The snake-like man commented "But I don't have time so I'll mark you now." The snake-like man's body turned into like a snake literally and stretched rushing in Sasuke's body.
"Mark? Who will you mark?" Sasuke said arrogantly as his body was covered in lightning. With his arm forward, lightning formed and headed into the snake-like man's direction.
Zzz!
"Kuah!" The man groaned in pain as he retreated his body that gained more damage than expected from this team's unexpected strength. "You're a monster too huh…"
Sasuke snorted as his mouth was bleeding, as if he was suffering from internal damage. "I can't let myself be left in the dust forever."
"Sure… but your technique won't last long…" The man said, trying to buy time for his chakra to return a bit.
Sasuke disappeared from the spot and appeared beside the man in an instant and said "Don't try to buy time. I'll risk my life to kill you if I need to!"
The man clicked his tongue and tried to dodge but he was kicked in the chin by Sasuke sending him up in the sky "Ugh!"
Sasuke jumped and appeared above the man and sent a drop kick in the man's direction.
"Aghhh!" The man coughed out blood as he groaned in pain by the force of the kick.
Crash! "Guah!" The man groaned in pain as he crashed into the ground.
Cough! Cough!
Blood continuously dripped from Sasuke's mouth as his jutsu was still incomplete, damaging his body much more than he expected.
Two ninjas appeared beside the man in worry and asked as they supported him up "Are you okay? Orochimaru-sama?"
Orochimaru replied with a hoarse voice "I'm fine. Let's get out of here, I sense the jounins already headed this way. In my current condition I can't fight against a lot of jounins."
The two ninjas nodded and helped Orochimaru stand up.
Orochimaru turned his face towards Sasuke and said with a sinister smile "You're really Itachi's brother. So strong at such a young age."
Cough!
"Wait!" Sasuke had difficulties talking as his jutsu was still active.
"I'll see you next time." He said before they disappeared in their location.
Cough! Cough! Sasuke deactivated his jutsu but was still coughing, thankfully, Sakura was there. "Are you okay? Sasuke-kun?!" she said worriedly
Sasuke replied as he lost consciousness "I'll be fine… be sure to last till tomorrow, or the day after that, Naruto said he'll wake up by that time…"
