Chapter 8 - A death battle

After Tsunade said that she told us to follow her. We followed her and we went towads the T&I department building. We go there the anbu in front nods towards Tsunade and opens the door we go in and take the stairs and go down. When we go to the last level we hear screaming.

?:" HELP US."

??:" PLEASE GET US OUT."

???:" I ALREADY TOLD YOU EVERYTHING PLEASE LET ME GO."

And other stuff some were angery, some sad, some were begging. The twins get pale faced. Even I am not used to this.

But I just keep thinking about the trial that Tsunade -sensei told us I think I know what it is going to be. Tsunade leads us toward a cell there seem to be 3 people with tied and broken limbs even their mouths were covered they had tears in their eyes. Tsunade looks at them with a coold face and says.

Tsunade:"We would have done a bandit extermination but we are at war so we can't exactly waste our ninja like that. These guys were genin from the Cloud village. They were spies in a cravan and they were caught."

She gives each one of us a kunai and says.

Tsunade:"Kill them."

The twins froze, but I did it and went towards one of them and sliced the guys throat with a swipe of the kunai, efficient and withought pain.

I looked at his face, I wasn't even seeing him clearly, what I saw was my self with the cut throat.'NO, NO WAY AM I LETTING MYSELF DIE. My view clears again and I see him dead lying there lifeless, I see my reflection in his eyes and look at my own cold face and black soules eyes. Then Taunade -sensei looks at me and says.

Tsunade:"You can go home if you want.

But don't forget tomorrow we will go to the frontline meet us at the village gate at 7 o'clock."

Me:"Ok."

I don't directly go home I go to the weapon shops and they let me buy exclusive ninja weapons when they see my headband I spend almost all my money and savings in buying different weapons like: paper bombs , more kunai , more shuriken, a gass mask, 2 storage scrolls, one of them for food and basic medical stuff just to be safe and the other one full of extra weapons.

I go home and greet my mother talk with her a bit and go to sleep.

-Time Skip- (Tomorrow)

When I wake up I go to the bathroom take a shower, eat breakfast, my mother looks worried for me, she is probably afraid that I will die in the war. I go outside give mother a hug and start walking out of my house. She waves at me with tears in her eyes I also wave back and start going toward the gate. I arrive there about 5 minutes earlier and see that the twins are already there with black rings under their eyes like they didn't sleep at all last night they don't even say anythig to me. We wait for Tsunade to show up.She shows up at the right time she nods at us and we start going towards the land of rivers.

Around the middle of the way I start making conversation with my teamates and discussing formations when we fight enemies to lighten the mood.

Then Shiro who is in the hood of my hoodie barks to me that is a sign that he smells enemies nearby, by the way the other signs are a lick which means that we are being followed or a lot of licks which means that we are surrounded.

I tell Tsunade -sensei this and she says.

Tsunade:"You guys fight them to test your teamwork. If there is any jonin I will take care of them."

We nod and make ready an ambush the plan is after they pass by us me and Asutori make a combination jutsu.

As I see them I sense them there are four of them with Sand Village headband probably scouts and they have chunin chakra but I will still be ready about any surprise. I give Shiro a thums up to signal him to look out for any sneak attacks behind me. After all I could still die by a kunai at the back of my skull. I still don't have enough experience or instinct to know that about a kunai behind my back. If he sees one I will know, Inuzukas have that kind of special conection with their ninken.

As they pass us I get out of my hiding place in a tree. And aim my jutsu on their running figures. [Wind Style Great Breakthrough].

One of them senses something and tourns around.[Earth Style Earth Wall]

He has been in war before and has grater experience in battles than me.

Well then time to get serious. I get in the ground in all fours Shiro jumps in my back [Inuzuka Style Rare Beast Transformation: Double-Headed Wolf]

We transform in a giant two headed beast.

I then on top of it use

[Four Legged Technique]

My claws get longer and my fangs more defined. And it raised my agility high even though I have a big body.

The 4 chunin look at me surprised. Then I use some chakra to strengthen my body and suddenly dissapear from their view and appear behind them behind the ninja with the fan and swipe my claws at him and one shot him then the two ninjutsu guys use [Earth Style Earth Gun] at me I don't even attempt to block I just simply doge use a Substitution jutsu with a giant log and appear behing them swipe at the pupet guy kill him and then bite at the two other ninjas who used sand Substitution and both do a [Earth Style Earth Wall] and try to trap me inside an earth dome. Ahh this is the weakness of a big body against 1 on 1 it is an ultimate technique but in group fights it becomes a burden. The ninjas look tired I cancel my justsu and then immediately me and Shiro do the [Wolf Fang Technique] we spin in high speeds towards them and I injure my target havily but the other guy dodges Shiros attack. I immediately use [Four Legged Technique] again to get begind the guy and with a kunai stab it behind his skull.

He falls dead on the ground. I am still on guard.

I feel something behind me and immediately swing my kunai behind me then someone catches my hand by the wrist.

Tsunade:"Relax Yami. 003."

I look at my chakra and see I have about 80% left. The substitution took about 10%, Great Breakthrough about 6% and the others about 4%. The Inuzuka techniques are not really chakra intensive after all a genin Kiba was able to use them.

Though I look back at the stupid decisions that I made back there and think that if I was more clearheded I could have made better decisions. If I used my taijutsu and ninjutsu correctly I could have taken them out with the half the chakra I used.

Tsunade looks at me and says.

Tsunade:"You did well on your first death fight. So don't beat yourself over the mistakes you made you would have normally had to fight againd bandits for your first death fight but you went way and beyond against 4 chunin."

Then Tsunade looks at the twins and goes to them and slaps both of them.

Tsunade:"KNOCK IT OUT YOU TWO, YOU NEED TO GET THE YOUR HEAD ON REALITY YOUR TEAMMATE COULD'VE DIED BECAUSE OF YOU. IF YOU DO THIS AGAIN SAY YOUR CARERS AS NINJA GOODBYE.

Then we keep going towards the land of rivers nobody says anything. We stop for the night and go to sleep Tsunade takes the first watch and I take the second we don't let the twins stay watch because they are sleep deprived

and useless at the job. After I wake up the twins ,they apologised to me with tears in their eyes. And me putting on a smiling face and accept the apology, even though in the inside I held myself back from killing them if that was the battlefield I wouldn't be alive becouse of their incompetence.

Then the rest of the journey is normal withought disturbance. We arrive at the konoha camp and I see hundred of tents

Then I see the camp leader Sakumo come and talk to sensei.

Sakumo:"Tsunade I am glad you arrived safely, we need you to help us, that old hag Chiyo is making new poisons. Also the Ichbi jinchuriki has joined the battlefield I can hold him back easily but I can never kill him becouse of that Chiyo. There are also rumors from our spies that the 3rd Kazakage together with Ebizo are holding the borders against the Stone Village that is all the new information from our boreder sience you have been gone."

Then he looks at us and says.

Sakumo:"So this is your team huh."

Tsunade:"Yes the twins need some adjusting. But the Inuzuka is ready for war."

Sakumo then looks at me directly and says.

Sakumo:" Where did you find such a kid Tsunade."

Tsunade:" I didn't find him he found me.

But anyway I will leave him to you Sakumo."

Sakumo:" I have intel that two days from now Sand Village will attack so you should rest kid."
