Chapter 36: Round 1
Authors note: Well, it seems like half of you don't even know who Sunless is or what his Aspect is. Majority want it, and there are only 2 who don't want it.
So, I have made my decision, everything will be explained for those who don't know what it is, drop right now if you want to but the Aspect rankings for Shadow slave will be integrated into my novel.
That being said, MC will start to be fairly overpowered from then on.
Sorry for uploading late today, but chapter 40 is a MASSIVE chapter and I am currently writing it, and I didn't want to make any mistakes since I am trying to integrate a whole new system into the Naruto world and explain why all C-rank aspects are basically useless compared to S-rank.
… As B slowly began to take out one sword after another while chasing down a slithery Kakashi, the remaining Shinobi focused on the genin who were their other targets.
Hundreds of Shinobi were about to fight against the Genin and they didn't even seem to care.
Naruto however had a scary smirk on his face as he looked at everyone around.
He turned his face to his left, to see an agitated Sasuke, and to his right to see Sakura who was trembling constantly.
"What do we do?" Sakura asked in fear as she turned towards Sasuke.
"I don't know…" Sasuke spat out, as he seemed to be giving up looking at their odds.
"I do." Naruto said calmly, as he stepped in front, and made Sakura and Sasuke stare at him in shock.
"Naruto, now is not the time!" Sasuke called out and Sakura didn't even get the courage to say more words.
"Sakura. I will always protect you." Naruto stated calmly as he looked at the hundreds of Shinobi surrounding him without an ounce of fear on his face.
He raised his thumb to his face, which currently had a massive smirk, and bit down on it, causing his thumb to bleed.
He then smeared the blood over his palm in a practiced fashion.
"I will stop anyone who gets in my way!" He shouted, as he weaved some hand signs, and slammed his hand onto the ground.
[Summoning Jutsu!]
As Naruto's hand made contact with the earth, a dense mist erupted, shrouding the battlefield in an eerie cloak of fog.
Within the swirling vapors, figures began to take shape, and amidst the haze, Naruto, Sasuke, and Sakura materialized atop the colossal form of Gamabunta.
The toad boss rose from the mist like a titan awakening from slumber, his imposing figure casting a shadow over the chaos below.
Naruto's expression remained resolute, his gaze fixed on the throng of shinobi before him, while Sasuke and Sakura stood at his side in complete and utter shock at what Naruto had just done.
'What the hell?' Even Kakashi couldn't help but gaze towards his Sensei's summon and imagine the 4th Hokage in the place of Naruto.
"Naruto, what have you gotten into this time?" Gamabunta asked in a tired voice while smoking from his cigar
"Boss, those people down there are attacking my friends, I need your help to stop them." Naruto instructed, as he pointed his finger at the hundreds of Shinobi who looked up at him in the fight.
"Well, I still owe you and Jiraiya for Gamakichi…ah what the hell kid, you get a freebie." Gamabunta said, as he took in a deep breath in his pipe, and spat it to the side.
"Naruto." Sakura called out in shock as she saw how strong Naruto seemed now, while she was covering Sasuke's hands.
"This is not all." Naruto said, as he formed a plus sign with his hands, as he looked down on the hundreds of Shinobi in front of him.
[Multi Shadow Clone Jutsu!]
Thousands of identical Narutos formed all over Gamabunta, who seemed unphased as they all began to look menacingly at the number of Shinobi in front of them.
The numbers didn't even matter anymore.
"Mind if I join the party?" Another figure asked, as he joined Naruto on Gamabuntas head, while the aura he was emanating slowly stopped and his hair stopped floating.
"The more the merrier." Naruto said, without even turning his head, as all of his clones began to pay up with each other.
"Naruto, as much as I owe you, I do not appreciate so many feet on my head. All of you, other than the original Naruto, jump off before I roll on the ground!" Gamabunta threatened.
"Absolutely!" Shikomu shouted as he body flickered and appeared high into the air with a calm look on his face, as a massive bolt of lightning appeared inside of his mouth.
The paired Naruto's all joined Shikomu as they began molding their chakra into Naruto's signature Jutsu.
"RASENGAN!"
…
(At the other side of the battlefield.)
Naido and Yugito didn't even care about the multiple explosions happening around them as they just stared at each other.
"Our battle ends today." Yugito growled as she channeled her chakra through the Tailed Beast Chakra coat.
"You're right. It does. But not before you answer my question." Naido stated as he looked at her with an intensity he had never shown before. "What do you want? I might as well let the dead man know something." "Why did you even do it?" "This again, I told you I was under orders!" "That was bullshit!" Naido spat in anger as he stared at her.
"Forget it, Yugito. If you're not gonna tell me then I don't want to know." He said, as he prepared his fighting stance.
"Well that's fine by me!" She screamed, as he punched towards Naido at extreme speeds.
However, right as she was about to swipe her hands at him, he swung his hands upwards, which caused the Earth to move with it and protect him from the upcoming attack.
He then sprung himself into the air, while Yugito destroyed his Earthen Defense, and propelled himself with the air in the atmosphere.
"Still using this bullshit instead of learning real Jutsu?!" Yugito taunted as she jumped into the air.
Naido however ignored her, as he waved his hands as he used the atmospheric vapor to form into water as a wave of water gushed towards Yugito.
Seeing as he wasn't interested in responding, Yugito stepped on the water that was coming towards her, and slowly began to undergo the perfect Tailed beast transformation. Her red coat slowly became larger, as a fire like Chakra began to surround her, burning the water she was walking on. In response to this, Naido seemed uncaring, as he rushed towards her and went into close combat.
"Do you wish to die?!" She spat, as Naido approached her.
"No." Naido replied coldly, as Chakra began to coat his body.
Right as Yugito made contact with Naido however, the fire aspect of her Chakra got canceled out, and Naido directed her claw swipe into the air to take as little physical damage as possible.
In shock, Yugito positioned her feet onto Naidos chest and pushed herself far away from him. As she was flying, she shot tens of miniature Tailed Beast bombs at him in quick successions.
"Ambhitta." The calm words of the Buddhist monk covered the noisy battlefield from all corners, as a wave of chakra left his body, completely dismantling the massive attack and causing a gush of pure chakra to be shot into the atmosphere.
"So you succeeded huh." Yugito asked, as he positioned herself for another attack after landing on the ground.
"I did." Naido stated calmly as he himself fell onto the ground.
"I am still a horrible match up for you!" She shouted, as she shot angrily towards Naido with extreme speeds, causing craters to be formed wherever she took a step.
"And I have spent every waking moment of my life figuring out ways to kill you!" Naido said as he finally showed some anger in his voice during the battle as he used the Earth to propel himself towards the Jinchuriki.
Round 2 of the battle was about to begin.
…
(Yuki's side) "Ayumi!" Yuki called out, as he saw Ayumi dead and Naido sensei going on a rampage destroying the enemy shinobi.
Obviously however, Ayumi didn't respond.
The kunoichi who was standing in front of him didn't even seem tired.
However the second Yuki reached her, tens of copies of herself surrounded him and Yuki looked around confused.
He then saw the rampaging Naido and decided something inside of his head.
'He is clearly distracted.' He thought as he activated his Sharingan and saw most of the copies of the kunoichi disappear, since they were all a part of a genjutsu.
As he saw the real one, he turned towards her and charged at her.
It was time for his second fight as well.
