Chương 36: CH 36
Sasuke, just now getting his breathing back to normal, stood and glared at Naruto, "How did you hit me so easily? You were never this good before!"
Naruto set back into a ready stance, "Well this isn't before is it? You can't hit me fighting the way you do. Trying to beat me with taijutsu would be like you trying to fight Kakashi with taijutsu, except I won't be so nice about it. No gimme shots for you to boost your ego, if you try that again I will be breaking something."
Sasuke growled at Naruto, "What do you mean 'gimme shots'?" Sasuke rushed right back in as Naruto sighed in response and began defending, "Face it dobe! Those other losers couldn't match up to me!"
Naruto narrowed his eyes and caught Sasuke's fist in his grip before slamming a fist deep into his body. Sasuke dropped to his knees, spitting out blood and coughing once more. Naruto punted him in the ribs and sent him rolling for a few feet, "I meant what I said. When Kakashi trained you during the month before the finals he said he worked on your taijutsu and speed, how hard did he hit you? What was the hardest that Kakashi hit you?"
Naruto picked up Sasuke by his collar and smashed him in the face once more, "Did he ever hit you so hard that he hurt himself? Did he ever hit you so hard you actually lost consciousness for more than a day? If your answer is no then you're way more under me than I thought."
Naruto held him by his collar as Sasuke struggled to get out. Sasuke managed to reel off a shot that hit Naruto in the face, but all it did was force Naruto to turn his head, Naruto quirked his mouth before head-butting Sasuke in the face, sending him falling to the ground holding his now broken nose. Sasuke looked up to Naruto, blood coming through his finger and tears forming in his eyes.
Naruto shot a cold gaze downward, "You think you're strong but you're not as good as you think. You've been lead to believe that you're Kami's gift to Konoha, but you're not, you're just another genin with a bloodline, and that doesn't make you special at all. All you had over everyone else was a leg up and an entire village at your back."
Sasuke stood back up glaring with death in his eyes at Naruto who scoffed at his attempt at killing intent, "I'm done talking to you. Let me show you what I mean the hard way."
As Naruto finished speaking Sasuke jumped away, not really wanting to get in close with Naruto again. Sasuke flipped through hand-signs and put his fingers to his mouth, "Katon: Goukakyu no Jutsu (Fire Release: Grand Fireball Jutsu)!"
The fireball launched at Naruto who didn't move. The fireball collided with Naruto much to the approval of the crowd who up until that point were sitting on their hands. Sasuke smirked at the ruin he had created until the fire cleared and a charred log was left behind, remnants of a kawarimi.
Sasuke scanned the immediate area swiftly, preparing his body for any response that it could take. He turned his head as he saw Naruto emerge from the tree in the arena, rushing at him. As he turned to react he took a sharp blow in one of his blind spots, revealing another Naruto that was currently pummeling him. The first Naruto who had gotten his notice had dispelled while the other Naruto attacked.
Sasuke was reeling from the pummeling that was taking place. The Sharingan was once again proven useless against an opponent that was far faster than he was. It actually made it worse, seeing a punch coming and not being able to defend it chipped away at Sasuke's confidence, but in this case he was seeing entire combinations coming and still ended up taking them.
The dull thump of Sasuke hitting the ground again rang out as Naruto burst into smoke. Another Naruto revealed itself standing on top of the walls shaking his right hand out with amusement on his face, "Good job Sasuke-teme. You technically beat my Kage Bunshin, though he dispelled because he broke his hand on your face, but hey! Who's keeping score here?"
XxX
The jounin were at the end of their rope. This was just too much. Gai was hunched over the rail, his head arched out towards the battle, "A Kage Bunshin… He was doing that kind of damage with just one Kage Bunshin…"
Tsunade had a stone face on as she watched her genin fight, "Now do you see? Did him running through all of your teams get the point across or do you need more evidence to support his promotion." She faced the jounin seriously, "The next time I personally endorse the promotion of one particular ninja you'd damn sure better believe without question that there is a damn good reason for it."
Kakashi was frozen in place before something ticked in his brain, "I need to stop this before this goes too far."
Kurenai shook her head at Kakashi, "It's a little late for that isn't it?"
Kakashi made a move to leave but was blocked by Asuma and Gai, "What are you two doing? This can't go on any longer!"
Asuma sighed in a disinterested fashion, "We all watched our own kids get their asses kicked, so you're staying to watch one of yours beat the crap out of the other one."
Gai nodded, "We all knew the stakes coming into this test my eternal rival. Take solace in the fact that this isn't a deathmatch."
Tsunade raised her voice, "Kakashi, stand down. Do not interfere with this fight."
Kakashi turned to her, "Tsunade-sama, if this doesn't end soon it will escalate. They'll try to kill each other."
Tsunade raised an eyebrow, "If Naruto tries to kill Sasuke then Sasuke is dead. If Sasuke tries to kill Naruto then Sasuke will end up in the hospital. Naruto won't kill him and Sasuke isn't capable of killing him in return."
Kakashi made to speak again but Tsunade held up her hand stalling him, "Just watch."
"What did I miss?"
They all turned to see Jiraiya standing in the corner. Tsunade frowned at him, "How about the whole thing? This is the last fight. Naruto's been tearing through all of these kids."
Jiraiya looked out to see Naruto walking slowly down the wall back into the arena, "Alright, well at least I got here in time to catch one."
XxX
Sasuke stood once more as Naruto strode towards him purposefully. Sasuke glared as blood dripped down his face, "You aren't better than me!" Sasuke launched a set of kunai at Naruto who just shifted his body out of the way and kept walking.
Sasuke smirked as he placed ninja wire into his mouth and pulled back on it. The wire surrounded and bound Naruto. Sasuke grinned maniacally, "Katon: Ryuuka no Jut-."
