Fallout

Returning to Uzu and looking at the scene before me was a straight up horror story. The amount of body parts laying about was tremendous.

What remained of the battlefield was only a few Kiri , Kumo, and Iwa ninja. All the Suna ninja were gone. Seems they were turned into human shields from the surrounding villages. The largest remaining forces were from Iwa who who used their fortress tactics to shield themselves from the tailed beast bomb.

Once more taking a seat and pulling out my dango I looked over what would occur next. Hmm there's an interesting sword up for grabs too.

Of the survivors Shuichi was the last remaining commander on the field. He couldn't believe what had just occurred. How could the Uzumaki do such a thing? They had wiped out their entire village simply to keep their own secrets. Sure the fate that awaited any of the remaining Uzumaki maybe worse than death but what occurred here today wasn't much better for them. On the one hand their dedication to the way of the Shinobi was admirable, on the other hand these were nothing but a set of monsters. Thank heavens they're gone.

Staring at the ruins of the village once known as Uzushiokagure the survivors had similar thoughts to Shuichi.

The remaining Kumo shinobi in particular were dumbstruck. They've lost almost everything by going ahead of everyone. The simulations they ran were perfect with no chance of failure. The battle had been going perfectly for them. Now however the Suna had been wiped out, and all their major forces met a similar fate. What is this bullshit?

Iwa on the other hand was celebrating, it was time to release their trump cards in earnest. The explosive corps members hiding in their ranks made their big reveal and triggered the explosives they planted throughout the entire battle. A lot of those triggered already with the Uzumaki's little gift. Which ironically helped accidentally eliminate Suna and destroyed most of the others forces. Once more the field was covered in explosions.

Blood and limbs once more covered the battlefield.

Staring down on the battlefield I couldn't be more excited. One of my personal goals here today was to hopefully run into Iwagakures explosive corps. Kumo for all their obsession with kekkei genkai seemed to have never actually managed to acquire any and outright dismissed some from service. Iwagakure on the other hand created a permanent squad with explosive release and created an extremely useful kinjutsu to capitalize on the ability. Not to mention the most powerful Dust release passed down by the Iwa's kage could be taught. These were great specimens!

With a strong throw my kunai appeared within the Iwa fortress. Considering the ongoing fight it went largely unnoticed.

With a flash I appeared.

Instead of my usual armor resembling Tobirama's, I appeared wearing a blue version of Gaaras outfit. With my blue hannya mask, gourd with straw in one hand and eating the dango off my right hand, I stuck out like a sore thumb.

" Hello every body any chance you could all just die and save me some time?"

Without getting any response I was immediately attacked from all angles. Naturally my Hydrification technique came into full use at this moment.

" Well that's just rude…."

Chaining my gourd back to my side and throwing my dango stick straight through an unaware Iwa chuunins head. I simply clapped my hands.

My strength of a hundred seal released in full. With a mere point of my finger in semblance of a gun upward, a tremendous amount of water appeared. Around me a 30 foot wall of water appeared exploding into a crushing amount of waves spreading out in a circular fashion.

Water release: Exploding Water Colliding Wave!

Using the ridiculous reserves found in my hundred seal I managed to turn the area around Uzu into a a large and deep lake. The pressure coming from the terrifying tsunami like waves crushed all in its path. The remaining survivors of the technique were mostly Jonin from Iwa and Kumo. Kiri on the other hand did much better and retained most of their remaining forces.

While the battlefield had shifted quite suddenly, as jonin this change posed no problem. Soon everyone returned to fighting one another.

Kiri in particular welcomed the change and began using water jutsu left and right. Kumo with their lightning specialty enjoyed the extended range the water provided. Iwa on the other hand felt like they had been screwed with right at the cusp of victory.

At this point Iwa and Kumo assumed Kirigakure's trump card had appeared in the hannya masked man. Ironically so did the remaining Kiri ninja. Seeing the use of Hydrification technique and this incredible use of water release it seemed like a fair assumption. Not to mention the chakra sword hanging to the opposite side of the gourd on his waist made it seem like he was one of the seven swordsman.

Naturally not everyone was an idiot. Shuichi knew that this was no swordsman of the mist so he subtly had his people keep their distance. The remaining Kumo ninja were retreating in the confusion. Iwa actually beat them to the punch and fled sooner than they did.

Unfortunately for them I'm not exactly a hero or a certain knuckle head ninja.

I once more clapped my hands.

Around the outskirts of my man made lake the water started to begin a rotation and slowly took the form of multiple dragons.

Water Release: Multi Water Dragon Bullet

Slowly the ever growing amount of dragons came swirling inward beating and crushing everything in their path.

Shuichi was once again the first to react and began to attack the masked stranger.

The Shibuki or blast sword was an interesting weapon that soon came crashing towards me. Unfortunately for the swordsman the explosion could easily be dodged as I simply merged into the water below me. I soon appeared behind the swordsman but he had immediately retreated to once again face me. I once more clapped my hands and trapped us in a circle surrounded by a new set of water dragons.

" Who are you?"

" Oh right how rude of me. I am prince Zuko. Exiled prince of the Fire Daimyo on a mission to destroy the Ava— I mean I am the Blue Spirit!"

[ So he's just a kid. An exiled prince? It's not that far fetched. He wouldn't be the first. I heard the Fire Daimyo is a fool. Nothing but a puppet to his aides whims. To let go of such a boy he really must be a fool. With such power would the Fire Daimyo have any real use for Konoha?]

" Lord Zuko why did you interfere in this battle?"

" Oh that's easy. The fight looked fun!… plus how else am I going to get my dango money. Wait.. my name is Blue Spirit!"

" Lord Zuko please withdraw your attacks. I would like to personally invite you to join Kirigakure. Your real heritage likely awaits you there."

" My real heritage? What are you talking about?"

" Your use of the Hydrification technique suggests you come from the same clan as our Mizukage. You are definitely a descendant of the Hozuki clan."

" Interesting. How do you know all that? Who are you rude person that doesn't introduce themselves?"

" I am Shuichi… Shuichi Kaguya. One of the seven swordsman of the mist and wielder of Shibuki."

" Aren't all Kaguya battle hungry idiots?

" Not all. Some of us are unique."

What a lucky day! Soon I'll have two kekkei genkai to play with! Maybe…hopefully… well things will workout somehow.

Drawing my sword I prepare myself.

This is going to be fun….
