Akatsuki attacks
"What's happening?" A questioned. Ao, one of Mei's bodyguards turned towards the direction of the commotion and activated his Byakugan. "Eh? It seems we are under attack. What monstrous chakra. It's the Akatsuki. Two members. Uchiha Itachi and Hoshigaki Kisame." Ao said as he relayed to everyone what he was seeing. Hearing the names Itachi and Kisame, A became immediately incensed and shouted, "What?" As he recalled how Itachi and Kisame nearly captured Bee. He quickly disappeared from the room and charged out. Mei frowned as she felt partly responsible since one of the Akatsuki members attacking were from Kirigakure. She stood up and said, "Ao, Chojuro, follow me. There is a missing ninja from our village and it is our responsibility to get rid of him."
"Yes." Ao and Chojuro acknowledged as they rushed out with her. "What now Gaara?" Temari asked while Kankuro waited on standby. Gaara paused thinking momentarily to himself before saying, "Let's go take a look. If things turn bad we shall lend a helping hand." Temari and Kankuro nodded as they all left as well. Kurotsuchi looked at Onoki before asking, "Well, what should we do?" he asked. "Hmpf. The Raikage, Mizukage, and Kazekage went to deal with the matter already. There's no need for us to move. Besides, what if my back acts up again?" Tsunade scowled and said "Sasuke, Kakashi, come with me. I'll go incase there are any injuries." Kakashi & I nodded as we followed her out leaving only Onoki and Mifune in the room.
Tsunade, Kakashi, and I stood still as we saw the Raikage fight against the intruders in the giant hall we walked through just earlier in the day as it was completely filled with water like it were a giant lake. Kakashi stood there and marveled at the amount of water in the room. "To create so much water and fill up this giant hall requires not only an incredibly skilled Water Style user but also an enormous amount of chakra."
"You Akatsuki bastards!" A shouted as he stood atop the water after exchanging some moves with them. "Hehehe, the Raikage sure is fast." Kisame commented as he stood atop the water with Samehada in his hand. Itachi stood beside Kisame as he commented, "Hmpf. Let's just kill one of them and be done with it. Even with the both of us it'd be a tall order to take on all 5 Kage at once."
Mei frowned as she said, "Since you've both delivered yourself to our doorstep you can forget about leaving alive." She quickly formed the hand signs of Dog, Boar, Tiger, Ox, Rat, Bird and said, "Lava Style Lava Monster Jutsu" A large murky acidic fluid shot forth covering a wide area as she attempted to heavily injure both Kisame and Itachi. Kisame quickly clapped his hands together, formed the Snake hand sign, and placed his hands in the shape of a shark opening its mouth as he said, "Water Style Super Shark Bomb Jutsu!" A gigantic shark made of water shot forth as it gobbled up the acidic fluid filled with chakra.
The corrosive nature of the lava melted away the shark, however, the shark's absorption of chakra from the lava allowed it to repair itself and grow causing both techniques to cancel each other out in the end. Mei raised her eyebrows in surprise that Kisame was able to stop her technique. At this moment the Raikage cloaked in his lightning armor dashed over to Kisame and struck with his fist prompting Itachi to attack. A was inwardly surprised that Itachi wouls attack him like this since he was already so close to Kisame prompting a quick thought to flash past his mind, 'Hm? If he doesn't stop his sword swing then it would not only strike me but also cut his partner in half'. A raised his left arm that had a giant gold metal armor brace on it to block Itachi's strike while using his right fist and punched straight through Kisame.
A's fist struck right through Kisame's body as his left arm guard successfully defended against Itachi's strike. The force from the strike caused the Raikage to fly through the air a few meters away and it also cut right through Kisame who turned into nothing but water in that moment. "What? A Water Clone?" A remarked with anger. No wonder he didn't care that his sword would cut through his partner he mentally scowled. While in the distance Mei shouted, "Water Style Water Dragon Jutsu!"
Kisame's real body also appeared in the distance as he shouted, "Water Style Water Shark Bullet Jutsu!" A Water Dragon and Water Shark crashed into each other causing a large torrent of water to spread outwards. It was at this moment that a bunch of sand appeared up in the air as Gaara said, "Sand Hail!" Sand attacked Itachi and Kisame from above forcing them both to constantly shift their position. Kisame formed the hand sign seal of Confrontation and said, "Water Style A Thousand Feeding Sharks." A huge wave erupted from the water below into thousands of water sharks effectively blocking the hail of sand and rushed towards Gaara, Mei, and A.
Before anyone else could make a move Tsunade jumped down towards the watery battlefield and struck down with her fist on the water as she shouted, "HAAAAAAA!" The powerful force behind her punch caused an enormous cavity to appear in the water which forced extremely powerful waves to rise high in the air all around disrupting Kisame's technique. As the large wave rushed out from the cavity it continued to crash down towards Kisame and Itachi.
At this moment Kisame finished weaving the same hand signs as he said, "Water Style Great Waterfall Jutsu" A giant vortex of water kicked up around them and absorbed the incoming wave before shooting back out with even greater force and ferocity towards Tsunade, Mei, Gaara, and A. Kisame and Itachi also dashed towards them with their swords in hand at the same time. It was at this moment that I chose to intervene. I jumped in front of them and formed the signs of Tiger, Hare, Boar, Dog and said, "Earth Style Earth-Wall Jutsu" A giant wall of earth rose up from the ground beneath all the water and up above it blocking the giant water vortex.
