Chapter 14
On with the story
As soon as Yoshi heard the word “fight,” he pulled out a kunai and prepared to charge. He looked at Yin's growling form a second before taking his first step in the charge. As soon as he took that step he stopped instantly. He stood up motionlessly one foot in front of the other in a still position, his kunai held high in his right hand, his mouth open wide in a silent battle cry. He stared at that spot where Yin was just a second ago. Suddenly Yin appeared a few feet behind him. She had her back to him in a low crouch. Her right claw hung loosely in front of her face, her other claw hung in the same position under her right claw. Her long nails faced the ground, and a single drop of blood dripped from each nail.
Slowly a blood red line began to appear across the boy's throat. It crosses his neck and his head slowly tilted forward, falling to the ground. His body sprayed a fountain of blood from its neck before falling foreword in a lifeless heap. A scream erupted from someone in a crowd as the boy's body lay there, headless.
A girl from the balcony jumped from the rails and headed not for the boys body but at Yin. She had a long katana in her hand as she descended upon Yin. Yin slowly stood up from her fighting position and looked up at the girl with a smile.
As the girl got closer to Yin she was suddenly tackled by another figure. She was sent flying across the room and landed on her back with the other figure on top of her. It was another female ninja from Konoha; Yin figured they were on the same team.
The other Nin sat on top of the girl and held down her wrists as the girl thrashed and screamed in anger. Suddenly the Nin on top slapped the girl across the face and began to whisper to her. Yin looked on uninterested before looking at the prompter. The leaf village prompter stared at Yin with narrowed eyes before raising his hand.
“The winner, Yin Kitsune,”
There was no cheer from anyone. Yin looked over to Sasuke and Sasuke gave her a proud smile and a nod. Yin smiled before disappearing in a plume of blue flames and reappearing by Yang and Kenshi. They both gave her smile before entwining one of their tails with hers in congratulations. No words were said out loud, but inside their minds, the demon's minds were a different story. Inside Yin's mind she was getting congratulations from not only Sasuke, Yang, and Kenshi, but from the entire village. She gave a small smile as she watched the board flip through the next name. All eyes in the building were directed at the Tree village shinobi in disbelief. Most hadn't even seen Yin move.
The board stopped on another set of names and two genin made their way to the center. The three siblings watched in disinterest as group after group fought. There was nothing special about any of them. Teams from many different villages fought each other. They didn't really pay attention. They did see a blood line ability of a Hyuuga but even that was interesting.
One battle went on very long against a sound village shinobi and a leaf village shinobi. The leaf village shinobi had many bugs flying out of him while the sound shinobi summoned many small but poisonous snakes. It eventually ended in a tie, with both shinobi being hospitalized. The eliminations were about half way through when Yang was called up.
“Yang Kitsune and Shiva Ishi, report for battle.”
Yang smiled before disappearing in a plume of flames. He appeared on the far side of the field. Yang stood calmly, looking for his opponent. A figure jumped from one of the balconies and landed hard on the ground, shaking the room slightly. The person stood up and Yang took in its figure. The person wasn't very big at all despite the tremor she made with its landing. Despite the figures cloths, Yang instantly identified the person as female. From the headband around her arm he knew that she was from the hidden stone village.
Her clothes were very masculine. She wore long, baggy, green shorts. They came to about an inch past her knees. Around her torso she wore a matching short sleeved shirt that was tucked into her shorts. Around her waist she wore a dark brown sash. Around her wrist and ankles were metal wrist bands. She wore no shoes; her feet were very dirty, along with her cloths. Her silky black hair was cut short, some strands hanging sloppily over her face but not hindering her vision. She had pale white skin but you could hardly tell because of all the dirt on her body. She stood up and stared at Yang with hardened dark brown eyes.
She eyed him up and down before scuffing and getting in her fighting stance. She spread her legs, her body facing Yang, and her arms held out in front of her. Her wrists lazily dangled towards the ground.
Above, her jounin instructor watched with confidence. She was a prodigy, the stone village's strongest genin. There was no way she could loose, even to these demons. The jounin mused.
Yang eyed the tom boyish genin with interest. A light smile appeared on his face before he got into his fighting stance. He stood up on his tippy toes and lifted his right leg up high in the air vertically. He then turned his body on his toes so his side was facing the girl. He put his palm out facing her and his other palm on the opposite side of him.
From the side Sasuke watched his son with a huge smile. He had taught Yang this fighting style personally. This was his favorite fighting style, graceful, beautiful, but powerful. You needed a lot of flexibility and balance to master this fighting style which was no problem for Yang. Sasuke couldn't wait to see the fighting style in action, the Floating Demon style.
Shiva raised her eye brow at the sight of Yang's stance. She had to admit, it was very interesting. To her side the prompter raised his hand and she began to focus again. Then quickly the prompter dropped his hand while yelling, “Fight!”
As she heard this she raised her hand and the ground under Yang shot up and smashed into the ceiling. Yang felt the ground moving and quickly did a cartwheel to the side. Shiva saw this and growled before she redirected her arms. A pillar of earth shot out at Yang from the ground. Yang simply swayed out of the way, closing his eyes and doing an intricate dance. Pillar after pillar was thrust towards Yang who just danced around the room, swaying gracefully, hoping and spinning around while steadily moving closer to Shiva. Shiva growled in frustration before raising a big ball of earth from the ground in front of her and kicking it, breaking it into smaller pieces and having them fly towards yang.
Yang stood still as the pieces flew towards him. As they came near he jumped at the pieces, straitened his body horizontally, and jumped through the pieces of stone still moving closer. As Shiva sent the earth flying towards Yang she began to form hand seals quickly. She finished with them and suddenly the entire ground was made into a field of razor sharp pillars. They shot up from the ground, engulfing the entire floor. Only the small area around her was untouched. She then lowered the pillars in hopes that she skewered the fox. As she looked around she couldn't see Yang at all, no blood, no body.
Suddenly a shadow appeared above her. She looked up to see Yang descending upon her. He aimed an ax kick down on her head. She was able to jump back a few inches before it hit her. Seeing his ax kick missed, yang flipped up side down and landing in a hand stand before launching himself towards her. He aimed a kick towards her head which was blocked by her wrist. She then raised her other arm up, making a small pillar come from the ground and launch towards him while he was still in the air. As it was about to connect he suddenly disappeared and appeared behind her. She saw this before spinning around and sending a fist sailing towards his face. Yang ducked the fist and grabbed her wrist. She growled and sent another punch towards his face with her free hand. He smiled and sent a palm upward into her fist, and redirecting her punch with ease. He then grabbed her wrist; he now held both of her wrists.
Shiva growled and was about to head butt Yang before she felt soft lips against hers. She looked on in surprise as Yang kissed her with his eyes closed. Her eyes widened as she felt the kiss from the smaller figure in front of her before she felt her body go numb. Yang opened his eyes and released her. She looked at him in shock before she began to fall back, her body unable to move. She hit the ground softly, the ground below her softer then she remembered it. She couldn't move a muscle for some reason but she felt no pain. She stared up at Yang as he stood above her. He looked down at her with a smile.
“You lose,” Yang said softly. He then looked over to the prompter. “I have flooded her body with a very special poison. She will no longer be able to use chakra, and she will be unable to move her body for at least three days or until I release her.”
The prompter looked at the girl to see if it was true. He nodded when he saw that she wasn't moving. He raised his hand and called out, “The winner, Yang Kitsune.”
Again there was no applause but Yang smiled as he teleported back to Yin and Kenshi's side. Inside his mind yells and yips of approval and congratulations could be heard. Yang watched the medic ninja run in with their stretcher. He smiled before releasing the poison from Shiva's system. She blinked a couple times before standing up unharmed. The three genin were again the center of attention. Many different thoughts were running through the mind of the crowd. Like “Those tree village genin are incredible, and those are just the children.” “And he didn't even break a sweat.” But some more spiteful thoughts went through some people's heads as well like “Why did they spare that stone shinobi but kill the Konoha genin in a second.” Many people narrowed their eyes at the siblings before turning their attention to the board.
A few other fights went by after Yang's fight, but again nothing that spectacular. All and all, the Konoha teams were the one's that won the most. They seemed to be superior to everyone they faced. The only non Konoha team that was left was one person from the sand village. She killed a leaf village genin with great ease. She had red hair and carried around a large gourd on her back. She had complete control over sand. The leaf genin that faced her was no match. But of course the genin was nothing special. After that battle there were only two people left, the very agitated Kenshi who had been waiting all this time, and one more genin; Kenshi didn't even need to see who he was fighting before he teleported down to the arena. This would be the last fight.
Kenshi stood with his arms crossed waiting for his opponent, as he did a figure jumped from the balcony and landed a little ways away softly in a low crouch. He stood up and Kenshi narrowed his eyes. He was a leaf shinobi with horrible taste in clothing. He wore disgustingly ugly green spandex. He had long orange socks going up his ankles. Around his arms and hands were bandages. He wore his headband around his waist. He had short black hair in a bowl cut; when you saw his face you could see that he had no eye brows at all. He stood up strait, one arm behind his back, and one arm out in front of him, his hand in a chopping position.
His instructor who looked a lot like him stood in the balconies with narrowed eyes while looking at Kenshi. Kenshi hadn't taken a fighting stance but his teeth were bared and a deep growl escaped his throat. His usually blue eyes were now blood red as his tails thrashed about wildly. He still stood with his hands crossed. The instructor looked at his student with a serious expression.
“Ryu you must take this battle seriously, you have to be at full strength if you are to have a chance of winning.” The man shouted.
The boy looked up at him seriously. “Yes Lee-sensei,” he said while nodding his head. He then bent down and lowered his socks. He took some weights from his socks and threw them behind himself. They made a huge tremor in the room when they landed and there were now inside a small crater. This was followed with very shocked faced in the crowd. Then the boy began to perform hand seals, after he finished a seal appeared across his fore head.
Kenshi recognized those seals and narrowed his eyes. They were gravity seals, they increased the gravity around the wearer's body, and it is active until the wearer dispels it. It is a very effective and advanced training method. Suddenly the seals on the boy's forehead broke in two and disappeared. He then took a breath and got into his fighting stance. The prompter looked at the two before raising his hand and dropping it while screaming, “Fight!”
Instantly Ryu disappeared, leaving a trail of dust in his wake. He appeared in front of Kenshi sending a powerful kick towards Kenshi. Kenshi put out his hand to catch it, but when it connected the blow knocked Kenshi back while crushing a few bones in his hand. He slid back on his feet in surprise before the boy disappeared. There was a series of gasps across the room, one even came from Yang.
Ryu appeared behind Kenshi sending a kick towards the back of his head. Kenshi growled, deciding not to take this boy lightly. He quickly turned around and sends his arm into the leg, affectively blocking it. The impact made a small tremor before Ryu disappeared again. The blow didn't hurt much this time sense he was prepared, but it sill hurt. His hand was slowly healing as the boy attacked, sending crushing blows his way and disappearing. The boy was extremely fast, Kenshi's eyes could keep up with him but for the first thirty seconds he was completely on the defensive.
After thirty seconds Ryu appeared below Kenshi and aimed an uppercut towards him, Kenshi side stepped it and sent a kick towards Ryu. Ryu saw this and jumped back. He stood far from Kenshi calmly; the barrage of attacks didn't seem to tire him in the least. Kenshi smiled at the boy before getting a low fighting stance. His knees spread and his claws at his side, his muzzle open in a sadistic smile. He then disappeared, the boy disappeared as well.
Suddenly there was a small tremor in the air, Kenshi and Ryu could be seen in the air, in a stand off before they disappeared again. They were both moving at incredible speeds. None of the genin could keep up with them, of-course except for Yin and Yang. Kenshi and Yang collided constantly, their collision making a small tremor each time. The air was filled with loud battle cries from Ryu and deep growls from Kenshi. As they collided again Kenshi spun around to deliver a powerful kick towards Ryu but his spin wasn't fast enough, Ryu sent a quick punch towards Kenshi's spine, determined to break it. An inch before he connected he was hit across the chest by two of Kenshi's tails. He was knocked out of the air and was sent crashing into the ground, lifting up dust and debris as he landed.
Kenshi took the chance, and sailed strait for the crater while performing a continuous front flip, determined to pound Ryu into the ground. As he did, he was suddenly shocked by a bolt of lightning from the dust. It exploded on contact and sent him sailing across the room. He landed on his feet, sliding across the ground as the dust cleared. The dust cleared and Ryu's figure was revealed. He stood up in a deep crater that came up to his waist. One hand had two fingers pointed at Kenshi while his other hand was in the seal for lightning near his chest. His right arm had electricity running through it; he then reached behind himself and pulled out a pair of nunchucks.
He held it in his hand before touching it with his other two fingers. The electricity was sent into the nunchucks. Ryu began to swing them around expertly, the electricity cracking every once in a while. In the stands Lee smiled.
“He is far superior to me when I was just his age. Sakura-chan and I have raised and trained him since he was a kid. He was just a lonely abandoned kid on the streets until we took him in. I raised him as my own and now his power is close to mine. Not only is he much stronger and faster then I was when I was his age because of the gravity seal. But Sakura has taught and trained him to use ninjutsu and genjutsu. He mostly uses it to enhance his strength and speed but when he has to he will use his favorite jutsu, lightning jutsu. He's always been fascinated by the speed and power of lightning and so he worked so hard to learn how to use it. I am truly proud of him” Lee thought as he watched Ryu twirl the lightning infused nunchucks around.
Kenshi narrowed his eyes. That lightning jutsu had done a number on his body. It was at least a jounin level technique. His body was very blood, one of his tail sat limp at his side. It had taken most of the impact. Before he could get a chance to assess all of his damage, Ryu again disappeared and appeared in front of Kenshi, sending a lighting infused metal rod of the nunchucks toward his body. Kenshi brought his tail forward blocking the nunchucks, but as he did a shock was sent through his body. He tensed up in pain as the boy disappeared and sent another strike to the back of his head. This time Kenshi ducked under it only to be kneed in the back of the head.
Kenshi was sent flying foreword when Ryu appeared above him and smashed his electric nunchucks into Kenshi's back, slamming him into the ground. He then buried them into Kenshi's back, the nunchucks steadily electrocuting Kenshi as he was shoved farther into the concrete. Kenshi spat out blood and stifled his scream as he arched his back in pain. As he was shocked by over a thousand volts of electricity, he suddenly jumped up and grabbed Ryu's nunchucks while still being shocked. As he grabbed a rod, metal spikes shot out of it, Kenshi hardened his fur stopping the spikes while sending three tails toward Ryu. Ryu was forced to let go and pull away or get skewered. Kenshi held the nunchucks with his teeth gritted before crushing them in his hands.
Ryu looked at him with a smile before taking out another pair, electrocuting it and disappearing. He reappeared and sent another rod towards Kenshi. Kenshi growled before he opened his mouth and sent a huge plume of blue flames towards Ryu. Ryu jumped back but not before his nunchucks were burned to ashes. He stared at Kenshi as Kenshi stifled the flames. Kenshi stared back with a sadistic smile.
“You are very interesting. You are stronger than these other weaklings. You have even forced me into using jutsu which is a great honor for you. I have had a lot of fun playing with you. You are strong for a genin but now you must die.” Kenshi said while sending a huge wave of blue flames from his mouth towards Ryu. The flames were fast and got to Ryu in under a second. Before the flames hit him, Ryu undid his bandages. When the flame subsided, there was no sign of Ryu, not even ashes. Kenshi growled out while searching around with his eyes. Suddenly Ryu appeared below him kicked him in the chin sending him flying into the air. Kenshi was surprised for a second before making his fur heavier. He began to descend back down to the ground before he was kicked in the stomach, sending back up.
Ryu continued to kick Kenshi until they were high in the air. Once they were near the sealing the bandages around Ryu's arm came alive, and wrapped around Kenshi, mummifying him. Ryu then performed hand seals before electricity began to flow through his arms. He grabbed Kenshi sending many thousands of volts through him before falling upside down and spinning, Kenshi's eyes widened in pain as he was spun around, but he would never cry out even though the pain was excruciating. They spun so fast that they became a blur. Finally they crashed into the ground creating a huge shock wave, blowing up dust, and creating a huge tremor throughout the building.
Ryu jumped away as they hit and landed far away. He dropped to one knee and was now breathing fast. Everyone watched the dust clear in anticipation. When the dust finally cleared, a series of gasps went through mostly everyone in the building. Kenshi lay in a huge crater, taking up most of the floor. He lay flat out on the ground motionless, and covered in blood. His eyes are closed, his body unmoving. Yin and Yang look down at Kenshi in disbelief and then at Ryu. From the looks of them it was seem like Ryu had no problem taking Kenshi down. Ryu barely had a scratch on him while Kenshi was covered in blood.
The prompter walked over to Kenshi and raised his hand. But before he spoke he heard movement in the crater. He looked down to see Kenshi slowly get up. He got up very slowly. He stood in a hunch. His right arm stayed limp, along with all of his tails. He grabbed his right arm in pain before slowly walking up the slope of the crater. He walked out, wincing with every step and faced Ryu just a few meters away. Ryu looked at him in shock before standing up, still breathing hard but slower than before.
“You are beaten just give up.” Ryu said forcefully.
Kenshi just smiled at him. “You think you have beaten me.” His smile then grew. “I'm just getting started. I commend you for pushing me this far, I never expected any human to be this powerful.”As he said this he closed his eyes, and many blood red seals appeared on his forehead. Ryu didn't recognize the seals but he wasn't just going to stand there and let Kenshi prepare. He suddenly charged Kenshi, not as fast as before but still able to get to Kenshi within a second. He jumped at Kenshi and sent a punch towards Kenshi's head. As it was about to connect, Kenshi erupted with red chakra, blowing Ryu back. Ryu flew across the area and into a wall, but he landed on his feet and jumped off a few yards away from Kenshi. He watched as Kenshi burst with red chakra, the chakra swirling around him wildly. Kenshi's wounds began to heal his tails and arm coming back to life. The genin in the room paled at the immense power.
They were blown back at the power. Everyone else was struggling just to stay on there felt. Even Yin and Yang's body struggled to keep from being blown back. Ryu now covering his face and looked at Kenshi in horror. “But how is this possible?”
Kenshi smiled. “I have been holding back. During our demon training, we have our chakra, muscle mass, and bone mass, dangerously weakened by a seal. It is very dangerous and some people have died from it, but if you live, you will train like that until you need to unlock your true power. Well I have unlocked mine. Not only was my healing capabilities hindered because of my locked away demon chakra,my bones were much easier to brake, and of course my strength and speed were drastically decreased because of it. On top of all of this, I must walk around withfifty time's normal gravity which I have dispelled. This is my true power.”Kenshi's chakra red chakra flared around him, earth and rocks rising and breaking under his power.
As Kenshi spoke Ryu's chakra was increasing. He stood his ground while holding his arms in a cross in front of him. His skin was slowly turning red, veins visible in his head. He had been whispering something silently to himself. In the stands Lee looked at him in worry.
“I hope he can take it.” Lee whispered.
Ryu then whispered, “Fourth Gate: Pain Gate, release.” Ryu's chakra began to slowly increase. Kenshi could feel Ryu's chakra growing stronger. Ryu then whispered, “Fifth Gate: Limit Gate, release.” As he said this green chakra began to seep from his body, his chakra shook the building, his green chakra clashing with Kenshi's red chakra. Suddenly he threw his hands down and screamed, “Sixth Gate: View Gate, release!” The ground crumpled under his power, the air around him growing heavy. Kenshi looked at him in shock.
“What incredible power.” He said as he watched the earth tremble violently from Ryu's power.
Ryu looked at Kenshi before suddenly shouting towards him, the ground breaking apart in his wake. Kenshi braced himself for the onslaught but he found himself unprepared for Ryu's speed. Kenshi was barely able to keep up with Ryu's movement as he charged, but just enough. As Ryu came closer Kenshi planted his feet and aimed a sharp claw at Ryu, it got in inch away from him before Ryu stopping instantly spinning around while ducking, and sending a kick up into Kenshi's chest. Kenshi gasped out from the blow before being sent flying through the air. He crashed into the ceiling and shot straight out of the roof.
Ryu looked up at him before getting low and shooting into the air. His arms and legs were burning with fire, while electricity flowed through his body. Kenshi turned around in the air as Ryu got closer. Ryu flew at Kenshi at amazing speeds before colliding with him at fifty feet in the air, a little higher than the tower. He punched Kenshi in the stomach making blood spray from Kenshi's muzzle. He then moved above Kenshi, and turning Kenshi around. He then began to pummel Kenshi with hundreds of flaming electric blows. Kenshi's body was set ablaze and filled with painful electricity as he was hit, he muzzle agape from the pain.
Ryu then shouted, “Storming Peacock!” as the flames and electricity danced off of Kenshi's body and spread of in every direction. He then gave one final punch, his fist illuminated by fire from the speed of his punch and a huge current of electricity going through his arm. Kenshi's now burning body crackled with a huge amount of electricity as the punch connected with his face. His body was sent crashing down into the tower at a hundred and fifty miles an hour crashing again through the sealing and crashing into the middle of the arena, shaking the entire building on contact. Lee fell through the sealing and landed on his feet before falling over. He slowly lifted himself up and sat on his butt. He then smiled up at Lee.
Tears streamed down Lee's face and he gave Ryu thumbs up. “Congratulations Ryu.”
Ryu smiled up at Lee with tears streaming down his eyes and gave Lee thumbs up. “Thank you Lee-sensei.”
Dust was still in the air from the massive collision, Yin and Yang looked at the crash with expression less faces. But slowly, a small smile appeared across their faces. Suddenly as Lee and Ryu smiled at each other, Ryu found himself being lifted up and dangling a few inches from the air. He now stared into blood red slitted eyes, the air being choked away from him. Kenshi smiled at Ryu sadistically, not a scratch on him.
“Once again I am impressed. Originally I only released twenty percent of my power but your attack forced me to release forty percent of my power. I must thank you for such a trilling fight. For your reward I will make your death quick.”
Ryu dangled helplessly in the air before being thrown into the air. A small red ball of demon chakra suddenly appeared in Kenshi's hand before he threw it at Ryu. Lee's eyes widened before disappearing from his spot. He grabbed Ryu and turned his back to the ball an inch before it hit. The ball hit Lee and exploded, shaking the building. Lee sailed across the room with Ryu in his arms and crashed into a wall, his back hitting the wall to protect Ryu. He then hit the wall and fell a few feet to the ground with Ryu held protectively in his arms. Lee looked at Ryu with a smile before passing out, his body covered in blood. Ryu looked down at his father and shook him.
Tsunade quickly ran over to Lee and Ryu. She moved Ryu from Lee and began to heal him. The entire room watched as one of the most powerful ninja in the leaf lay unconscious after Kenshi's attack. Medic Nin ran in and put both Lee and Ryu in a stretcher, Ryu had taken some damage from the blast. Tsunade helped lift them into the stretchers before directing her attention to the room.
“He'll live, they both have many broken bones but nothing that can't be fixed.” She said before turning to Kenshi and narrowing her eyes. She balled her fists while staring at Kenshi until she heard a growl from the side. She looked over at Sasuke to see him staring at her and growling deeply in warning. She stared at Sasuke before calming down and walking over to the destroyed arena.
“The winner Kenshi, and with that the eliminations are over. Next we will decide who you will be fighting in the next exam.” The remaining genin began to make their way down next to Kenshi, staring at him in fear. By now he had put his seals back. Yin walked up to Kenshi and held her fist out. Kenshi smiled and pounded his fist against hers. Yang than walked over and gave him a quick hug before standing at his side.
The rest of the genin stood near the three still looking at them. Tsunade cleared her throat, catching everyone's attention. A board was then brought out by another ninja. He brought the board over to her and left with a bow. It was turned around so no one could see the names.
“Ok here are you next opponents.”
That's the end of this chapter, please review.
Hey everyone. So what did you think about the chapter, a little longer than the others. Yeah well you're welcome. Please review, for some reason I didn't get any reviews for my last chapter; that kind of sucks. But I really wanted to right this chapter because I thought it was cool, what about you? All reviews are welcome, thanks for reading. Oh if you've noticed, I've made the siblings out to be ruthless in a fight. Well that's pretty much because they hate humans, you noticed they don't act sadistic around people they care about so don't get the wrong idea about them, ninja's kill all of the time no matter how nice and caring they are outside of a fight. Like the third, he is one of my favorite Naruto characters, next to Kyuubi of-course. Well see ya next time.
