Battle of Iwa (Part-1)
"Surrender now, and you both shall live to tell the tale", said Haru the Iwa General Intimately
"You gotta be kidding me, Do you really expect us to believe in that offer", Asked Renji bewildered
"No"
"..."
"Then why did you even asked", asked Renji finally getting his curiosity heightened
"I hate to kill such wonderful individuals, How about we go back with me, And we can fight every day in the name of torture?", he asked Earnestly
"..."
"NO", Yelled Renji...How the hell is this guy the wise and great mighty general of Iwa 'Haru Aasuhi' he is clearly a battle maniac old man.
"Sigh...If that's the case, then let's just finish this thing off"
*Blink*Blink
They both looked at Sakumo who didn't even move from his spot or took a Battle Stance.
"Uh...Sensei?"
"Oh...So you guys are finally paying attention me...don't bother, treat me as air, like you were doing till now...Go on do your stuff", Sakumo said sarcasm dripping from his tongue.
'Oh, Great This is not the time to sulk you old man', Thought Renji
'So even famous Hatake Sakumo has his quirks, hmm...', thought Haru
*Cough*Cough
"Sensei, It's time to come back and help me, or I will complain Aunty"
"What are you doing let's go, fight"
"Yea", Renji smiled
-------
Suddenly both looked at Sakumo who released a plethora of white chakra mixed with great Killing intent.
The white chakra formed a huge white sword, as Sakumo gave sword pressure.
"White fang", muttered Haru
As Sakumo disappeared from there and appeared above Haru with a sword in his hand.
Sakumo released a precise burst of chakra at the moment his blade contacts a target. This, in turn, allows Sakumo to increase the force of his sword strikes to incredible levels.
"Hatake Style: Sword Pressure"
As he swings it down on Haru
"Earth Style: Rock Fist"
BBBBBBBOOOOOOOOOMMMMMM
There was carter as Sakumo's sword was blocked with an earth arm
And pushed him away...this shows the mighty physical prowess Haru possess in his body
"Hydromancy Arts: Hydroforming"
But at that very moment, the ground suddenly turned into seawater, which washes away all plant and wildlife. The plant and wildlife that is washed away and replaced by its aquatic counterparts.
Renji who was standing in a praying motion suddenly opened his eyes...
"Hydromancy Arts (Level 4): Hydroportation", Renji took out Two Kunai's in each hand
And Renji disappeared in a blue flash "Clang!" There was no feeling of stabbing through flesh. Instead, the feeling of striking metal traveled up from his Kunai into his hand. He raised his kunai and slashed with a spin! After three strikes, he flashes, arriving at Haru's side, dealing another 2 strikes. He leaned, dodging a backhand arm swing. One kunai struck out 3 times! He stepped off the ground and performed another flash, appearing at Haru's other side again with another two rapid strikes. Continuous clanging of metal rang through the battlefield.
The Blue flash became a piercing light, appearing on Haru's other side. Dodging the sideways sweep with a spin, his triple strike appeared yet again! Then a flash to his back! Along with the combo count, the kunai's speed also rose. All that could be seen now were the weaving afterimages of Renji. He appeared all over the place, using a flurry of Blue flashes. As the speed increased, he became more like a storm. Knife thrusts rained down like raindrops, continuously triggering Flash. Along with this rain of Kunai, Renji appeared to cover the sky, fluttering around like a butterfly. Haru couldn't even lay a finger on him.
This is the power of Hydromancy Arts, The arts created by the god himself. The sole purpose of Hydromancy arts is to control every expects of the battle... Until unless The ocean is in the field, nothing could escape his control for eternity as it would seem.
What a pity he did not master the Legendary Arts...He is not strong enough 'yet'
The moment Renji stopped attacking...to catch his breath
The earth armor clone disappeared...
!!!
'When did he---'
"Youton: Shakugaryuugan no Jutsu (Lava Release: Scorching Stream Rock Technique)", Came an Unknown voice out of nowhere.
That instant a volley of meteoric rocks trailing dark fire behind them pounded into the water ground with intense force, splashing fire and molten water into the air. The sound of violent explosions colliding physically with the water carried out into the night...
Pssshhhhhhh
A white smoke covered the entire field, as the ocean disappeared into the thin air...Renji alongside the water lost his ability to teleport
A hand comes out from the hot earth grabbing Renji ankles and take him inside earth except for his head...
"GAAA"
"Doton: Shinjū Zanshu no Jutsu" (Earth Style: Headhunter Jutsu)
"You are far too slow", Said Haru as he brought his kunai to finish Renji off...
"Hell Cutter", came the voice of Sakumo...as the hero of war made an appearance
Using his blade, Sakumo cut a line in space and time. Essentially to make the victim dead. The technique moves at the speed of light and therefore essentially never misses, it also has no standard damage system, it just kills its target. Nothing and no amount of defense can save the target, they just die...Pity that it could only be done in a long-range and it does not differentiate friend from a foe, thus making it impossible to be done in a war. But this one technique created by Sakumo makes him a one-man army.
It was Sakumo's most powerful Killing art, something he never uses...
And just like predicted the slash that came with a speed of light, cut Haru's head...
The earth clone disappeared...
!!!
"Kyojin Kazanryū no Jutsu" (Behemoth Lava Dragon Jutsu)
Haru creates a monstrous dragon made out of the molten rock. This dragon possesses immense brute strength and endurance, able to resist a powerful explosion at close range while also having the ability to breathe fire or molten rock at foes. This dragon also has the ability to fly.
RRRRROOOAAAAAARRRRRR
It was the roar of the real dragon that Haru made...
"RENJI", Yelled Sakumo as he prepared for the attack
While Renji started making the hand signs and wait for the right moment to jump in.
"Earth Slicing Sickles", Sakumo cut in
Sakumo coats the blade using with chakra-infused earth, making it resemble an oversized broadsword at the end. Sakumo then slashes towards the incoming dragon, sharp splinters of earth resembling sickles fly off the blade and towards the dragon. The sickles are extremely sharp, capable of severing off limbs and piercing trees. Thanks to the chakra in the earth sickles, one is able at a time to keep distance or all at once to ensure massive damage and range.
And the incoming dragon met the huge broadsword...
BOOOOOOMMMMM
There were rocks and lava that flows everywhere, that came out of the dragon...Sakumo Hatake destroyed the dragon
"DO IT NOW", Yelled Sakumo yet again...
Ryūgū-jō (Water Style: Dragon-Palace)
Renji created various water spheres of varying sizes that appeared all over the place, These water spheres has the ability to slow down or accelerate the flow of time within it.
A pity, since he is doing the jutsu, he can't use another technique...
But that does not stop the one near him, the white hair S-Rank, threat...
The student-Teacher isn't a combo for nothing, they truly are a combination...
The overwhelmingly powerful white Chakra appeared yet again, as Sakumo released a mighty killing intent...
And he leaned forward only to disappear from the sight...
!!!
Haru couldn't even react before, he was stabbed with a sword into his chest...
Blood came from his mouth...as he raised his fist to hit Sakumo.
The only problem is...His fist is too slow, it's extremely slow...he can't hit anyone not even a kid with such a slow punch.
Haru glanced sideways only to see Renji with his hand seal made, he is the one controlling these bubbles...He is troublesome, and Haru now knows, Sakumo Hatake is impossible to be taken down, Till Hydromancer is supporting him...
Suddenly before his fist even reaches halfways, Sakumo disappeared...
!!!
"Kenjutsu Ninja Art: Twin Blade of 16 Slashes"
Powered through the piercing ability of lightning chakra and speed through wind chakra Sakumo hit Haru in an extremely fast motion all strikes through his lungs, chest, stomach they all are killing stikes and they are so-so fast that they can't be defended against, this is an ultimate strike that is virtually unblockable.
Coupled with the dragon palace, this jutsu is virtually impossible to be seen through
PUUUUU
Haru sprayed blood from his mouth and was on his knees, Blood was coming out of his mouth...as he glanced at water spheres, he is on the verge of defeat solely because of these time-altering bubbles.
Sakumo raised his sword to finish off Haru...
But Haru stealthily made a single hand sign...not being seen by Renji and Sakumo is a must for this technique to make it work.
"Lava Style: World Scorching Rage", he yelled just before the sword came to him.
!!!
Lava shoots out from everywhere, Sakumo dodged it, and Renji dodged it as well, But the lava keeps shooting...Evaporating the water bubbles and with it, everything was back to normal...well everything, except the really angry, Haru
All the while Sakumo and Renji tried their best to dodge the continuous lava that is shooting out from the earth...They didn't even get the chance to attack or dodge since it was impossible at this very moment.
Renji dodges the volcanic eruption, when suddenly out of lava, Came Haru as he punched Renji with everything he got...
BBBBOOOOOOMMMMMM
Shockwave is being created as Renji flew and slammed into rock far away, the attack was devastating and it was guaranteed that Renji has definitely broken some of his ribs.
But it was not the end, as Haru disappeared and punched occupied Sakumo as well breaking his limbs and bones as well, Sakumo flew near Renji as both were in blood all around...
But what made this Battle beyond their reach is, the natural healing of Haru, Aasuhi Haru is scratch-free, there was not even a scratch from the battle let alone any kind of wound
"M-Monster" *Cough*Cough* said Renji with blood in his mouth
"Look, well kid, this is the difference between us and a kage level; we could not even scratch him this whole time", Said Sakumo as he tried to stand up, but failing miserably.
They both lied down on the surface, like dying dogs who look like is in terrible pain heck they were in so much pain they can't even scream and the worst part is they won't even faint.
All the while Haru was looking down on them, as he sighed
"Goodbye and farewell my fellow warriors", he said respectively before bringing his kunai up to kill them both.
*Clink*Clink*Clink
Haru blocked the senbons that is being thrown at him...
"Hello General Aasuhi", said the newcomer
"Konoha's General Uchiha", Said Haru excited about meeting another strong opponent, and this opponent by far is strongest of them all.
As both stare at each other, feeling the right moment to strike in...
Sakumo was shocked but that was it, but Renji eyes widened, there can only be one person in Konoha's side, who can send this much of a sense of danger, in here on Iwa's field; if Haru's chakra is a whole dam that is impossible to see through, then this chakra is full of killing intent, which gives the sense of extremely high danger,
Konoha's general; Their mightiest warrior...Mikoto's father...he is here
Soon Iwa's Reinforcement came, this much chakra, this battle, it definitely attracted the attention from both the parties.
As Tsunade, alongside 4 Jonin commanders came as well, standing behind General Kagami.
(Konoha: 5 jonin commanders, 1 general)
VS
(Iwa: 20 high jonins, 3 jonin commanders, 1 general)
The battle for the Iwa is starting and in the middle of it, is Sakumo and Renji who are on the verge of dying.
