45. Yellow Flash

Our squad reaches the destination to intercept the enemies. All of us hid over selves and get ready to ambush the enemies. I activate my Sharingan to increase my perception.

Suddenly, a blue blur passes by. It is about to strike one of our comrades.

"Watch out!"

I immediately shout to inform the team.

'Lightning Release: Lariat'

'Expansion Jutsu'

Boom…

The blur slams in the ninja and sends him flying away. The Akimichi clan member is able to survive the impact through the use of Expansion Jutsu.

I clearly saw the appearance of Blur. It is a ninja cloaked in a lightning cloak with Kumo headband. The only possible person with such an appearance is the unruly A of the Kumogakure.

All of us stops as we start to inspect the enemies.

"Fool! Ya Fool! Let's deal with these fools, later I wanna soak in a pool."

I immediately recognized this speaking pattern. There is only one person in the entire Naruto series who raps while speaking, Killer B the Jinchuruki of Eight-Tails.

'Damn! The situation has turned from bad to worse. Our team is meant to be sacrificed to stop Kumo in their tracks. I ain't going down without a fight.'

'Wind Style: Compression Bomb'

I spew out compressed air from my mouth as it strikes towards A. A dodges the attack with his lightning cloak.

'Man-Beast Ultimate Taijutsu: Fang Over Fang'

One of the Inuzuka clan members in our team attacks Killer B with his ninken.

"Stop! He isn't someone you can handle on your own."

One of the Hyuga members shouts towards the Inuzuka member. A large Octopus tentacle appears out of nowhere and slaps away Inuzuka and his ninken. The Inuzuka slams into a tree a coughs some blood. He weakly stands up and feeds a pill to his ninken and eats one himself.

Both of the squads have a wry expression as the Hyuga informs them,

"That's the jinchuruki of Eight-Tails. From the look of it, it seems like he can control eight-tails perfectly. We are in trouble now, I hope that reinforcement arrives soon."

"We have to buy some time for reinforcement to arrive. I hope that we can last long enough to stop their charge."

Another ninja reminds us of our mission. I ignore their ranting as I throw shurikens and make some hand signs

'Shuriken Shadow Clone Jutsu'

A large number of Shuriken strikes towards the Kumo ninjas. As the shurikens are about to hit them, a giant octopus tentacle appears as it rotates and deflects them.

Tch…

'Killer bee is a problem and I don't want him to transform in Eight-tails and drop a Bijuu bomb on me. I have to seal his Chakra and at least buy enough time for Minato to arrive.'

I have already figured out who our reinforcement is. This scene reminds me of a fight between A and Minato. But I can't take the risk, I have to fight them.

'Taijutsu: Drop Kick'

A cloaked in lightning Chakra arrives before me as he drops kick me.

Poof…

The Shadow clone dissipates as I shout,

"Fuinjutsu: Shadow Binding Seal'

A sealing formula appears from my clone as it starts to crawl over A's body. The Fuinjutsu seal starts to seal his chakra as his body is covered in the sealing formula. A's lightning cloak starts to diminish and he stands rooted on the spot.

'Rasengan'

A looks wide-eyed at me as I make a Rasengan and prepare to slam it in him. The 'Sin seal' activates as it starts to suck my Chakra, but I pay no heed to it. As Rasengan is about to slam in A, a large tentacle covers A and blocks my strike.

I smirk at this. I have been waiting for this moment. I have infused enough Chakra for my next seal.

'Fuinjutsu Style: Five Elements Seal'

I slam my fingers which are covered in different elemental Chakras in the Tentacle. A large sealing formula spreads over the tentacle as it starts to cover Killer B's body. The eight Tails inside Killer B shouts to him,

"B, this seal is preventing me from supplying Chakra to you. It will take me fifteen minutes to break this seal, so you won��t be able to transform for the next fifteen minutes. You can only use partial transformation. Also, B that earlier jutsu used by this Uchiha kid resembles a Tailed-beast bomb. I really dread these Uchihas. A shiver ran down Eight tails spine as the figure of Madara Uchiha appears in its mind."

Killer B is able to save A from my Rasengan as he grabs A away. A rile up Chakra inside his body as he undoes the seal. I cast the previous seal in a hurry, so it wasn't that effective. It only restrains the target for a few seconds, enough to create an opening in the fight.

'Fuck! This Sin seal has forced me to use Taijutsu and Fuinjutsu. Every time I try to perform a Chakra-taxing technique, the seal starts to suck my Chakra reserves dry. I need to visit the Land of Whirlpools after this war. I have to figure out the nature of this seal and I hope Uzumaki clan has detailed information about this seal.'

"Who are you, kid? Despite being an Uchiha, how are you able to use the Fuinjutsu of Uzumaki clan?" A looks at me as he questions.

"I am Izuna Uchiha," I reply to him with a calm expression but my back is drenched in cold Sweat. I have already used all of my tricks and they all succeeded because of the element of Surprise. But now the surprise element is gone and B despite being unable to use complete transformation is still a very powerful Shinobi and let us not forget about A. Also, if necessary I don't want to reveal my Mangekyo Sharingan.

As A is about to attack us, a light flashes in front of us.

Whoosh…Whoosh…

Minato appears in front of us as he picks up a Kunai from a nearby tree. The Akimichi sighs in relief as he looks at Minato. The kunai was given to him by his Captain and he stabbed it in the tree.

One of the Kumo ninjas recognizes Minato as he reminds,

"The blond hair and the Teleportation Jutsu. That's gotta be the Leaf's Yellow Flash. We got to retreat right now. Don't you think!"

"So, that's him. The One who single-handedly stopped the recovery of the Nine-Tails." A recognizes Minato as he remarks.

"And I know you, you are the son of Hidden Cloud's Third Raikage, you are called Unruly A. I have heard that you are quite fast yourself." Minato also recognizes A as he praises A.

"Hum…We can take it, the two of us bro. Fool! Ya Fool!" B speaks confidently to A as he gets ready to fight Minato.

"Everybody stay out of this. I will fight them." Minato puts his left-hand on a holster tied to his back and throws many of his signature Tri-fork Kunai all over the place.

"Minato-san, I have used Five elemental seals to restrain the Chakra of the Eight-tails. He won't be able to transform into Eight-tails for the next fifteen minutes. Finish it quickly in the next few minutes." I explain the situation to Minato as I retreat. I don't want to miss a chance to watch the Yellow Flash in action.

A cloaks his body in lightning as he shoots towards Minato like a lightning bolt. I can follow his speed with my Sharingan but my reflexes and speed aren't fast enough to react to his speed. As A is about to punch Minato, Minato flings a kunai in the air and teleports from the spot. Minato appears on a branch with a kunai.

A has a look of disbelief as he mutters,

"I can't believe he counters me at my top speed."

Minato re-appears behind A, as he is about to stab A, a tentacle pushes A out of the way as Minato stabs in the tentacle.

'I guess Killer B never got a girlfriend with all those tentacles. He can easily go for a tentacle play. Cough…Cough, my thoughts….'

A jumps back to Killer B as he speaks,

"Forgive me B! you doing alright."

B breaths heavily as he struggles to prevent the seal from further sealing his Chakra.

"That's nothing. It is a child's play for me, the cool Eight-tails Killer be. Fool! Ya Fool!" Killer B raps as he convinces A.

"A, you have a fine family and as do I. I suspect the next time we meet, we will be fighting as one Kage against another Kage. If you don��t figure out what your little brother considers most precious to him, he will neither be a jinchuruki nor a human"

A starts to look around to spot all kunais as tries to predict the next teleportation spot of Minato. He cloaks his body in lightning and charges again at Minato. Minato teleports and re-appear behind B while pointing a kunai at his neck. A teleportation seal appears on the tentacle.

"You are my foe, but I like you. But I will advise you to return to your village. Killing you will create too many complications for this war, which aren't good for both Kumo as well as Konoha."

Minato retreats as he spares B. Our team starts to return to camp with no casualties, only the Akimichi and Inuzuka have some injuries.
