113 Fighting Against the Legendaries Part 8

< Sage Mode! >

Sasuke's eyelids became purple, following which he opened his eyes.

Kimimaro was shocked.

Sasuke's eyelids greatly reminded him of Orochimaru's while at the same time seemed to contain more threat within the eyes themselves…

Sasuke's Irises were yellow (instead of the usual black or the red in Sharingan) with the three Sharingan tomoes. However, instead of a general round black pupil in the middle, it was replaced with a narrow vertical slit.

The eyes overall had a much more piercing gaze compared to the usual Sharingan…

Kimimaro forced himself to recover his attention, following which he brought his right hand to the back of his neck.

*Sh!*

A small hole opened up on his back…

*Ugh!*

Kimimaro's face contorted with pain as he pulled his hand back to the front, ripping out his own Spinal Column.

*drip*

*drip*

Drops of Kimimaro's spinal fluid dropped on the floor from the spinal cord…

Hah!

Hah!

Hah!

Kimimaro breathed heavily as he stared at Sasuke.

Sasuke was surprised; however, he immediately regained his calm composure as he thought back to his training.

———FlashBack———

On a barren grassland within a forest, two figures stood face to face as they stared at the thousands of snakes in front of them.

"Brat!" The White Snake Sage called out.

"Mm!" Sasuke looked towards The White Snake Sage

"Have you heard about intents before?" The White Snake Sage asked.

"Yeah!" Sasuke nodded.

"Then you must be familiar with killing intent," The White Snake Sage said.

"Mm!" Sasuke nodded.

"Do you know how to use it?" The White Snake Sage asked.

"Don't you have to kill people for that?" Sasuke asked.

"Kill…Yes!"

"People…not necessarily!" The White Snake Sage replied following a shockwave emerged from it followed by a vast amount of pressure.

*Blerg!* Sasuke almost vomited as he half kneeled on the ground; meanwhile, all the snakes fled upon the action.

This…

Sasuke was reminded of the time where he and Sakura faced Orochimaru alone in the forest of death.

("What is this feeling?")

("Is it fear…?") Sasuke thought as he looked towards The White Snake Sage, only to find it even more hard to even get a direct look.

"This is Killing intent." The White Snake Sage said as it finally withdrew its intent.

Sasuke felt a significant relief upon feeling his body back in control again.

"Killing Intent when used properly can be very deadly since even a moment of hesitation can end up in you being killed on the battlefield…"

"After all, the world lives on the rule of Survival of the Fittest!"

——End of FlashBack——

< Fourth Dance - Dance of the Clematis: Vine! >

"AAAAHHHHHH!!!!!!!" Kimimaro howled while simultaneously releasing a huge amount of battle intent.

Sasuke released a massive amount of Killing intent into the atmosphere as he glared at Kimimaro who was running towards him...

*tk!*

Kimimaro's legs got petrified.

("His eyes, they are looking at me as though I am his prey...") Kimimaro thought.

As Sasuke kept glaring at Kimimaro, he brought his right hand out.

(Bz!)

(Bz!) (Bz!)

(Bz!) (Bz!) (Bz!) (Bz!)

(Bz!) (Bz!) (Bz!) (Bz!) (Bz!) (Bz!)

< Sage Art - Snake Lightning Chidori! >

In the evacuation room within the Stone faces of the Hokage mountains…

"Iruka Sensei!" Konohamaru called out.

"What?" Iruka looked at Konohamaru.

"I have to go!" Konohamaru said as he raised his pinky.

("Looks like I have no choice…") Iruka thought as he looked at Konohamaru.

…

Soon Iruka brought Konohamaru out.

*Sounds of destruction in the distance*

Konohamaru stares out of the window to see a huge three-headed snake destroying the village…

"Konohamaru, pay no heed to it."

"The ninjas of our village are working hard to protect it!" Iruka said.

"Mm!" Konohamaru nodded as he walked away.

…

(Bang!) Another building was destroyed.

"This is troublesome…" Shikaku murmured as he stared at the snake.

"Should we use that then?" Inoichi suggested.

"Mm!"

"Formation E it is!" Shikaku spoke to Inoichi following which he looked at Chōza.

"Got it!" Chōza nodded following which he brought his hands together.

< Yang Release - Super Expansion Jutsu! >

Chōza turned into a giant.

< Yin Release - Shadow Possession Jutsu >

Shikaku connected to Chōza's body using his shadow.

< Mind Body Transmission! >

Inoichi connected the minds of Chōza and, Shikaku and himself.

"Here it goes!"

< Ino-Shika-Cho Formation E - Human Bullet Yo-Yo! >

Shikaku used his shadow to throw Chōza towards the three-headed snakes.

(Bang!)

Chōza was spinning like a Yo-Yo as he hit the Snakes on their Heads.

HIISSSSSS!!!!!!!!!

The Snakes snarled at Chōza.

"Again!" Shikaku commanded following which he used Chōza to hit on the snakes again about 3-4 times following which the snakes started to flee in the direction of the village border.

"That's the legendary Ino-Shika-Cho trio for ya!" A special jounin commented, to which the others around him agreed.

"Do we need to chase those snakes down?" Chōza asked.

"Better be safe than sorry!" Shikaku said.

"Let's GO!" Inoichi added.

"Mm!" Chōza and the team nodded to each other.

< Sage Art - Magnetic Release Rasengan! >

"Naruto?!" Tsunade stared at the figure behind her…

Meanwhile…

"Naruto…" Sakura, Shikamaru, and the others saw Naruto in a whole new light.

("So that's him at full power….") Shikamaru stared at Naruto who instantly sealed Minato.

Sakura on the other hand, however, had complicated thoughts, especially after being defeated by Shikamaru, and now Naruto displaying his raw battle power totally overwrote any hopes of surpassing others in Sakura's heart.

She subconsciously compared herself with Tsunade, who was one of the legendary sannins.

Even though she was taught by Tsunade and hoped to surpass her as a disciple someday, her future power would still not in any way compare to Naruto who stood on the battlefield at a level equal or higher than the others.

…

Around the seating area, the mist finally cleared.

The jounins and the ANBUs together had all taken down the hundreds of ninjas that invaded the arena.

Kakashi, Gai, Zabuza, and Haku were relieved to see Naruto back in action.

"What is that form?" Gai asked as he stared wide-eyed at Naruto.

"I don't know…" Kakashi replied since he saw a different version of Naruto as well.

The last he had seen Naruto was in his nine tails mode and not the one with combined Sage mode.

"So that's the brat at full power huh…?" Zabuza murmured as he stared at Naruto.

"…" Haku also stared silently.

However, the most surprised of all was Hiashi.

"That brat…"

"Was he this powerful…?" Hiashi thought as he stared in horror, thinking back to the time where Naruto hadn't retaliated a single bit when Hiashi rained down his strikes.

"Just where does that sort of talent emerge from…" Hiashi wondered.

…

Naruto stood against Minato in his nine tails chakra form with his sage mode combined form.

"WHAT?"

"MAGNETIC STYLE?" Rasa and Orochimaru stared at Naruto.

*Sh!*

The chakra based marks on the magnetic release Rasengan spread all over Minato's body, preventing him from executing any moves.

("It's all thanks to Shukaku's Chakra that I am able to use this technique...") Naruto thought as he stared at Minato.

Naruto immediately grabbed a kunai from his pocket and threw it towards Hiruzen.

< Flying Thunder God - Stage 2! >

(Whoosh!)

Naruto teleported instantly to where Hiruzen was.

"Naruto!" Hiruzen called out.

"Old Man!"

"I want you to handle the First Hokage!" Naruto said.

"What?" Hiruzen was stunned, following which he turned towards Hashirama's direction only to see he was also incapacitated like Minato.

("Looks like he used the technique from earlier on the first as well…") Hiruzen thought.

"Naruto, I don't have enough Chakra to handle a guy like him," Hiruzen said.

"Here!" Naruto tapped Hiruzen, following which Hiruzen was coated with the nine tails chakra.

"What?" Everyone on the field was astonished.

However, Hiruzen who was in the cloak form was more astonished.

The chakra he wielded right now in this form, far surpassed his prime.

("Even if I have the techniques to contain him, I will not be able to maintain an upper hand against him for a long time…")

("In that case…") Hiruzen looked towards Naruto.

"I will buy you time; however, if you want to contain him, I have a certain person in mind," Hiruzen said.

"Who?" Naruto asked.

Hiruzen looked around the barrier following which his eyes locked on to a particular figure.

"That ANBU agent there!"

"Bring Tenzō!"

"As long as you share this chakra of yours, he will be able to fight against Hashirama!" Hiruzen said.

"Got it!" Naruto immediately turned back.

"I WILL KILL YOU!" Orochimaru shouted.

< Slithering Snake Mode! >

Orochimaru's lower half turned into that of a snake as he charged towards Naruto with an incredible amount of killing intent.

("Wait a minute!")

("Those emotion killing devices must be embedded into their bodies right?") Naruto thought as he looked towards Minato.

("Heck!")

("Why am I wasting so much time?")

("Use the enemies forces against them, it's such a simple battle tactic!")

("This way, I wouldn't have even to lift a finger to battle these guys…") Naruto thought following which he took out his kunai.

< Sage Mode! >

Jiraiya looked towards Orochimaru.

"Orochimaru!" Jiraiya called out.

However, Orochimaru was intent on killing Naruto no matter the cost.

Naruto sent a chakra hand forward.

(BAM!) Orochimaru was pummelled into the ground!

"What?" Jiraiya, Hiruzen and Tsunade were stunned.

"I haven't got time for this," Naruto said as he threw his kunai towards Minato.

Meanwhile, Hiruzen also recovered from his shock and ran towards Hashirama who was slowly gaining back control of his body.

< Flying Thunder God - Stage 2! >

(Whoosh!) Naruto appeared beside Minato.

"Here goes nothing!" Naruto shouted as he phased his hand into Minato.

"There it is!" Naruto felt a kunai placed within the body along with a talisman of some sort.

….

"No…."

"This cannot be happening…" Orochimaru stared in horror at Naruto.

(Katcha!)

Naruto pulled out the kunai completely.

"NOOOO!!!!!!" Orochimaru shouted in despair…

At that moment.
