Chapter 5

{FIRE STYLE: GREAT FIREBALL TECHNIQUE}

Itachi attacks Naruto and the others who were trapped in the Genjutsu.

Seeing the fireball, Kakashi starts to make hand seals.

{EARTH STYLE: EARTH WALL}

An earth wall that has faces of dogs on it appears blocking the attack. After confirming they were safe Kakashi rushes out engaging Itachi in a bout of Taijutsu.

As the fight went on Kakashi has the advantage. This was a good thing but Kakashi felt something was off as Itachi wasn't so weak that he would such an advantage.

With that thought in mind, Kakashi makes some hand signs again. Lightning starts to form on his hand.

{RAIKIRI}

With a burst of speed, he tries to hit Itachi but he jumps up avoiding it. However, Naruto who had released himself from the Genjutsu with the help of the nine tails appears above Itachi with a {RASENGAN}.

The attack hit Itachi send falling to the ground but it was a clone. Kakashi immediately went on guard to see that it was a clone. He tries locating Itachi with his Sharingan but couldn't find him.

"You can't see much with that eye of yours" a voice came from behind Kakashi.

Kakashi look back and Itachi was about to grab him. Kakashi tries to dodge but Itachi was too close. As Itachi was about to grab him, his body froze and he could move.

"Hmm! What this?" Itachi wonder what was happen

"Naruto I got him" Karin who had also broken from the Genjutsu at some point was using the {STRING LIGHT FORMATION} to hold Itachi in place.

"Alright!!" Naruto doesn't hesitate as he charges at Itachi with a {BIG BALL RASENGAN}.

Boom!!!

Kakashi jumps away as the attack slams on Itachi sending him flying into the trees.

"That was a close one," Kakashi said as he looks at Karin "I didn't know you were capable of making the {STRING LIGHT FORMATION}"

The {STRING LIGHT FORMATION} was a seal that could bind one's opponent. Normally it takes more than one person to make the technique work but Karin could do it on her own.

'As expected of an Uzumaki' Kakashi thought.

After the dust was cleared the five were shocked to find out that the body in front of them was not that of Itachi.

they realized that the attack must be a distraction to stop them from reaching Gaara. After granny Chiyo sends a mechanical bird to deliver a message to her brother they continue to rush after Gaara's chakra.

Meanwhile, the Akatsuki have finished extracting the one tail out of Gaara sealing it inside the Demonic Statue.

When the team arrive they notice Team Guy had already arrived before them. Team Guy explains to them about the seal.

"They are using the five-seal barrier," Karin says after studying the seal.

"How do we undo it?" Naruto was agitated because he was subconsciously using the nine tails chakra.

She explains that to undo it they had to remove the other four seals with the one on the rock at the same time.

With Neji's Byakugan they were able to locate the seal. Using wireless headsets, they were able to time it right and remove all the seals at the same time.

"now for this rock," Kakashi says.

Leave that to us" Sakura tells Kakashi.

Sakura and Karin both enhance their strength with Chaka.

""CHA!!!""

Karin and Sakura smashed the bolder into pieces clearing the way.

'as excepted of the student of the Fifth' Kakashi praise them in his mind

The rest of the team quickly enter the cave only for them to see one of the Akatsuki members sitting on top of Gaara's body.

"What the hell do you think you're doing" Naruto doesn't even wait as he charges at Deidara.

Kakashi tries to stop him but Naruto was too fast.

Before Naruto could reach him a C4 bomb was in his way

BOOM!!

""Naruto!!!"" Karin and Sakura were worried but Naruto was okay

"Hahaha Itachi was right the first one to shout would be the Jinchuriki" Deidara said as a clay bird swallows Gaara.

"Catch me if you can!!" He says flying out of the cave.

"You!!" Naruto was very angry as he dashes out chasing after Deidara while he enters his tails mode.

"That idiot" Karin looking in the direction they went.

"go after that child we will handle him" granny Chiyo said to Kakashi while looking at Sasori.

Kakashi nods as he goes after Naruto.
