Chapter 7

Yugi and the others were situated near the entrance of the Forest of Death, also known as Training Ground #44. Yugi felt a bit uneasy being near the forest, feeling a kind of darkness that was similar to the Orichalcos. "Naruto, what is this place?" the teenager asked softly.

Naruto answered, "This is Training Ground #44, but everyone calls this the Forest of Death. Its because many shinobi and kunoichi have died here, both in training and in actual battles."

Yugi was now very uncomfortable being near a place of death. Regaining a bit of his composure, he turned to the large group that was in front of him. "Okay, let me show more on how the Duel Monster game is played." he stated. He reactivated his Duel Disk, some of the shinobi/kunoichi still impressed by the mechanics of the device.

"First off when you Duel, you shake your opponent's hand and wish him or her good luck. It's a sign of good sportsmanship." Yugi started to say. "Next, you play Rock Paper Scissors to see who goes first. After that, both draw five cards and the one who goes first draws another card, thus starting the duel."

"Is this game considered a national sport?" Ino asked.

Yugi answered "No, but it comes close."

Yugi drew a card, and he smiled when he examined it. "Some Duelists like myself have cards that represent their personality and style. Well, meet my favorite one. Come on out, Kuriboh!" the Duelist called out as he put the card in one of the Monster slots.

A card appeared above the ground like last time, only this time what appeared was a... brown furball with purple eyes and tiny green claws? Most of the male ninjas sweatdropped at this, including the Council and Elder members. However, the female ones had sparkles in their eyes.

"Awww, its so kawaii!" was the statement by all of them. Yugi smiled in embarrassment, and Kuriboh made it worse when it cuddled up to Yugi. It squeaked in delight at seeing his master again.

"Wait a minute! Yugi, does that thing have a conscience? It seems to know you quite well for being just a card." Hiashi stated.

Yugi answered, "It does, in my opinion. Some people like myself see cards as more then just objects. We see them as a part of ourselves, a belief called The Heart of the Cards. If you have faith in yourself and in the cards, most likely they'll see you through in a duel."

This statement surprised most of the ninjas. 'This kid is really weird, as is this game of his. Still, its something to admire to a degree.' Tsunade thought.

Kuriboh flew to Amber, looking her over for a moment. He lifted his paw up and squeaked, a gesture of hello. Amber waved back, then the furball went to Temari. It looked her over just like it did to Amber, then it squeaked and cuddled into her. Temari was surprised that it did that, and marveled on how soft and warm the creature was.

"It's so cute! It likes me!" Temari exclaimed with a slight giggle. Kuriboh was enjoying the attention very much.

Gai asked, "Yugi, is there more to this card game?"

Yugi smiled and answered, "You bet!" He turned to Kuriboh, who returned to his side, and asked "Are you ready?" The answer was a squeak and a nod.

Yugi drew a card again, and this time his smile grew a little. "Time to show you what a Spell card can do, specifically a Normal one. I sacrifice my Kuriboh in order to activate Tribute Doll!" he exclaimed.

Another card appeared on the field face-up behind Kuriboh, but the color was green instead of dark orange. The shinobi/kunoichi were surprised very much when they saw a lifeless doll appearing beside the furball monster. The doll moved its head slightly, gazing at all with its dark red eyes.

"What is that thing?!" Hitomi exclaimed in slight fright. For her and others, those eyes reminded them all of the Kyubbi.

Yugi explained "This is the effect of my Spell card. Tribute Doll can only be activated when I sacrifice a monster on my side of the field. Now, I can Special Summon a Level 7 monster and treat it as a Normal Summons."

Shikamaru asked "Special Summons? Normal Summons? What does all of that mean?"

The tri-colored haired teenager answered "Monsters can be summoned in various ways. They are in these cases: Normal, Special, Tribute, Flipped, Ritual, and Fusion. I'll explain those later."

Yugi changed his stance a little and exclaimed "I now bring forth Swift Gaia the Fierce Knight!" As Kuriboh and the doll dematerialized before their very eyes, a bright column of light burst forth from where they were standing in. This did not go unnoticed.

Sasuke, Itachi, Sasori, Zetsu, the Cloud/Sound/Stone nins saw the light. 'It seems our search has ended.' all thought as they streaked for the light.

Naruto and the others shielded their eyes from the light until they felt it dimming down. A loud neigh caught their attention, and upon opening their eyes...they found themselves standing before a large and powerful-looking purple horse! Hinata was standing so close to it, she could almost feel the smell from its breath. Riding on top of the horse was a knight with armor that was very foreign, yet cool as well. They could not see his eyes or face, though.

"What in the hell is that thing?!" Kiba exclaimed. Although his dog Akamaru was large now, it was only half the size of the knight's horse.

"Meet Swift Gaia the Fierce Knight, a very powerful Effect monster. He's slightly different then his other self." Yugi answered, chuckling a bit at the sight of his new astounded friends. The horse went to Hinata and nudged her, the girl swallowing her fear and actually petting the beast.

"How is he different, Yugi?" Temari asked.

"That is what we would like to know too." another voice put in, but this time it was behind the group. Sakura and Naruto froze when they heard this voice, and Kakashi just went into immediate defensive mode.

The group turned around slowly and faced the traitor Uchiha Sasuke, along with some Sound nins that wore Chunnin vests. "Hello dobe, Sakura. It's been quite awhile, hasn't it?" the raven-haired teen asked casually.

"Sasuke." was all Naruto and Kakashi replied before take defensive stances. Sakura was still shocked to see her crush back, and he had changed dramatically from the one she remembered long ago. The others took defensive stances, ready to fight if necessary.

"Sasuke, what are you doing back here?" Sakura asked, her tone surprising Naruto. Not only she didn't refer to him as her dear 'Sasuke-kun', but she was frowning (glaring?) at him.

Sasuke smirked at her and answered "I have come back here with orders from Orochimaru-sama. I have come seeking the power that gave Gaara back his life."

Tsunade and the others eyes widen at this. 'They're after Yugi?!' all thought. The Hokage turned to Sasuke and stated coldly "Uchiha, since you are a traitor and missing-nin to the Leaf, you will be executed."

The brat sneered at Tsunade and retorted "You won't be able to touch me, Hokage-sama." The '-sama' was spoken with such sarcasm it got Tsunade's blood boiling.

Sasuke turned his attention to a now puzzled Motou Yugi, and his eyebrows rose slightly in surprise at seeing the beast and knight that stood in front of him. 'Kid's small and weird-looking, but he must be the one. Nobody else can summon something that strong looking and bizarre.' he thought.

"Sasuke-kun, our forces will not be able to take all of them down." one of the Sound-nins told him.

Sasuke replied "We do not have to defeat them. Just delay them in order to complete our mission: to capture that kid."

Yugi slowly put his cards and monster back into his deck, the beast disappearing and retracting the Duel Disk holoprojectors. The device on Yugi's arm intrigued Sasuke now, seeing what it just did. 'Something doesn't feel right. This guy... he sounds and acts just like Yami Bakura.' he thought.

Tsunade whispered to Naruto "Naruto. You, Temari, Hinata, and Ino take Yugi into the forest and hide him there. Make sure to protect him."

Hinata asked on why, and Tsunade explained that if Yugi was valuable enough to attract Orochimaru's attention, then what he had planned was not good for Konoha. "Go, now!" the Hokage hissed.

Naruto nodded his head and replied "Okay. Be careful, baa-chan." The loudmouth ninja went to Yugi, picking him up over his shoulders quickly, ignoring his protests, and motioning for Temari, Ino, and Hinata to follow him into the forest.

As they left, Sasuke started the seals and powered up the Chidori. "Come on, Kakashi. Let's go for one more lesson." Sasuke activated his Sharingan eyes, revealing the Mangekyou to all.

Kakashi didn't flinch as he revealed his Sharingan, even though he only had one Magenkyou. 'I may not have both, but I have more experience then him. I should be able to whittle him down.' the Copy Ninja thought before leaping into action.

Sasuke knocked Kakashi back with a roundhouse kick, then smashed the Chidori into the ground. It caused a medium-sized eruption that kicked dust up everywhere. The Leaf ninjas and everyone else had to cover their eyes and mouth.

The Sound-nins attacked the group as well, although they knew that they could not win. Their objective was to buy Sasuke the time to capture the target. Sasuke leaped high into the air, jumping over everyone and dashing into the forest. Kakashi was hot on his heels, and Sakura was chasing after them as well.

Tenten turned to her friend Amber and said "Well, time to kick some Sound ass!" Her friend agreed with her, and both pulled out twin kodachi blades, ready to rock.

Tsunade just grumbled, knocking out a Sound-nin who tried to rush her. "These pests are annoying. Time to send them running back like the cowards they are!" She smashed her heel into the ground, creating a shockwave that knocked everyone on the ground. It was on!

Sakura was running hard and fast to catch up with Kakashi and Sasuke, thankful that Tsunade for the intense training. 'Maybe there's still hope. Is it possible that Sasuke will come back to his senses and return to us? To me...No! Right now I must focus on the task at hand! I'll fight him if I have to.' the pink-haired kunoichi thought.

She didn't see the Stone and Cloud-nins that were trailing her, hopping along the treetops by her side.

Meanwhile, Yugi was just flying across the tree branches. Over Naruto's shoulder and looking down, he was amazed at the speed they were going. 'Wow! I feel like I'm flying!' he thought as they raced on.

Soon, they came to a small clearing and Naruto settled Yugi down. "Okay, this should be far enough." Naruto stated.

Yugi asked "What was that all about? What's going on?"

Ino answered while readying her kunai "That person you saw was Uchiha Sasuke, a traitor to the Leaf. He was once valued greatly, but his lust for power and vengeance was too great and he defected to join with Orochimaru."

"Who's Orochimaru?" Yugi inquired.

"He's one of the three Sennin, a legendary ninja of extraordinary power. He wanted to become Kage of the Leaf, but another was chosen. He left, vowing revenge." Temari started to say.

Hinata added "He's also searching for immortality. He has been switching bodies for some time, staying young and learning new jutsus. For his next body he targeted Uchiha-san."

Naruto finished "In other words, he's just a spoiled snake freak that feels he should have his way in everything. Just like that Sasuke bastard."

'This Orochimaru guy sounds like Noah, only more sinister and vile. One with no heart.' Yugi thought.

Something rustled in some brush on their right side, and the others stood ready. Emerging from the brush came Uchiha Itachi, Sasori, and Zetsu. "Oh hell..." Naruto whispered.

"We meet again, Naruto-kun. And you are quite right about my brother. He is a bastard, and still very weak." Itachi stated smoothly.

"Okay, now who are they?" Yugi asked. 'This guy feels and acts like Dartz, if a little more or less dangerous.'

Naruto answered "Let's just say that these guys are not the most friendly ones you like to hang around."

Sasori sneered and demanded "We're not here for you this time, fox brat. Just hand over that kid now!"

Temari got in front of Yugi quickly, drawing her battle fan out. "No way in hell you're getting Yugi, you sick freak." she hissed venomously. Ino and Hinata joined her, while Naruto got into battle mode.

"Kyuubi, I may need your help on this one." Naruto stated firmly to the fox.

The nine-tailed demon growled and replied "Okay, brat. From my point of view, it's going to be one long, tough fight. I hope you are prepared."

Naruto was suddenly covered in red chakra, his appearance changing slightly. Hinata and Ino were amazed to see the quick changes in Naruto. "I don't understand on how he has so much power!" Ino cried out from over the winds that whipped up.

Hinata used her Byakugan, and she saw two different charkas mixing together within Naruto. "I know why! He has two chakra sources! His is blue, and the second source is red!" Hinata called out.

Ino retorted "How is that possible?! I thought people only had one chakra source!"

Temari thought 'Unless that someone had a demon in them, girl.'

Yugi was just amazed at what he was seeing here. "This is crazy! Chakra... sources... traitors. This is just too confusing for me!" he said to himself.

Itachi stepped forward, not being too confident nor too cautious. "Just to let you know, Naruto-kun. You cannot win against me." he stated coolly.

The sun-blonde ninja just smirked and retorted "I've been training for three years, Itachi. And I've been itching to try my hand against you. Come on!"

Ino, Hinata, and Temari heard some noise and turned to see that on their left was Kakashi and Sasuke fighting. Sakura was running towards them, but the trio looked up to see Stone and Cloud-nins bearing down from the treetops. "Damn! Forehead girl led those guys here!" Ino complained.

"Well, time to get some exercise." Temari replied coolly.

Hinata looked over to see Naruto getting ready to fight. "I'll go help Naruto. You two protect Yugi!" she exclaimed before running to be by Naruto's side.

Ino and Temari prepared to fight the Stone and Cloud-nins, while Hinata and Naruto prepared to rumble with the Akatsuki members. Yugi was thinking 'Why is it that trouble always seem to follow me? I feel like Ranma from the manga books!'

Naruto exclaimed "KAGE BUNSHIN NO JUSTU!!!" Five solid clones of him appeared with no smoke, and Yugi's jaw dropped to the ground in shock.

Hinata went into her Jyuken fighting style, a slight sheen of sweat on her forehead. She was nervous about going up against such a powerful opponent, but she would not let Naruto down. 'He's done so much for me. Its time I paid him back for his words and the confidence he gave me. Naruto-kun, I'm with you all the way!' she thought.

Let's get ready to rumble!!
