Chapter 20 - Orochimaru

"Orochimaru, let's see how powerful one of the sannin really are," says Naruto with a grin. He dashes toward Orochimaru and ċȯċks his fist back ready to throw a punch, Orochimaru deflects it and goes to throw a punch to Naruto's stomach, but Naruto did a flip kick and aims for Orochimaru's chin. Orochimaru leans back avoiding the kick and smiles at Naruto. He then dashes forward and appears behind Naruto punching him in the back, this pushes Naruto back.

"Foul move" says Naruto as he stand up

"All's fair in a fight to the death" replies Orochimaru. Naruto again dodges toward Orochimaru and tries to kick his neck, Orochimaru stretches his neck backwards and avoids it and then his head comes back and he headbutts Naruto. Before Naruto can stabilize himself Orochimaru kicks him in the abdomen sending him flying until he hits a tree.

"Good hit" says Naruto, he appears in front of Orochimaru and tries to do a low kick, Orochimaru jumps up and tries to do a heel kick. Naruto dodges and punches Orochimaru right in the stomach. This causes him to take a step back

"Your stronger than I thought" says Orochimaru witch a smile

"same" replies Naruto. He then creates fifty shadow clones who all go after Orochimaru. He dodges attacks the shadow clones throw at him and counterattacks destroying all of them in a few seconds. He sees that the original Naruto seems to have disappeared, he looks around and can't find him, he then looks up and is shocked by what he sees. Naruto with a big ball of chakra in his hand "ODAMAN RASENGAN" Naruto shouts and it hits Orochimaru at full force. Thinking that he defeated Him so easily Naruto is disappointed, that when he sense something coming up really fast from the underground

"KUSANAGI" shouts Orochimaru this time with his original appearance, with an elongated neck, an open mouth with a sword pointed out. Naruto seeing how he can't dodge naturally has no choice, right when the blade is about to hit him he vanishes in a flash of yellow light. When Orochimaru sees this he is shocked 'how couldn't I see it before, that bright yellow hair, insane amounts of chakra, and the flying thunder god. This boy is minato and Kushina's son isn't he' thought Orochimaru to himself

"You left me no choice, it's time for me to get serious" says Naruto. Summoning a hundred shadow clones, they all pull out a tri pronged kunai and scatter it around. "INFINITE NARUTO BARRAGE" they all shout at the same time. They then teleport around Orochimaru punching him, and when he is about to hit back they teleport away. "Rasengan" they all yell out as a rasengan form, hitting Orochimaru over and over again, while he can't hit them back

"Enough, SUMMONING JUTSU:RASHOMON" he shouts and giant gate appears with frightening features, when a shadow attempts to hit the gate, they put a crack but they are then destroyed because they failed to destroy the gate "the stronger the attack, the more damage when they can't fully destroy the gate" Orochimaru says with a smile

"You forgot that the gate only protects you from one direction" says Naruto with a smile, he then disappeared and reappeared to the side of Orochimaru and hits him with a rasengan which threw Orochimaru back. He then spits up a scroll from his mouth, quickly teleporting over there and taking the scroll Naruto is happy to find out it's a heaven scroll. "I got a heaven scroll guys, it's time to go" says Naruto exhausted from his fight

"You're strong, I gotta give you that kid. If it wasn't for me trying to hide my presence I would go serious. But before I go, I'm gonna do what I came here to do" says Orochimaru as his head stretches all the way to Sasuke and bites him on the neck. "Farewell" He says and he then runs away

"Ow, what did he do to me?" Says Sasuke as he gets on his knees and holds his neck. Naruto walks up to him and takes a look at it

"It seems he put a seal on you, I've never seen anything like it before. I recommend getting that checked out. Well I'm going to go now as that fight took a lot out of me" says Naruto trying to catch his breath while walking over to haku and Karin

"Are you ok naruto?" Asks Karin with a worried expression looking around for any wounds

"I'm fine, but he wasn't lying when he said he didn't go all out." Said Naruto

"Well he is one of the three Sanins, second only to the hokage" replied Haku

"Yeah that is true, well he did drop the heaven scroll, even though it was from his stomach" said Naruto while pulling it out.

"That's wonderful, let's go to the tower then" said Karin

"Yeah" Naruto responds. He then looks back at Sasuke and his unconscious team "hey you, your name is Sasuke right?" He asked

"What of it?" Sasuke responded with anger, anger out of how weak he is, that a kid his age is that much stronger than him.

"Well you better wake those two up and find a heaven scroll, after all how could the little brother of the notorious Itachi Uchiha, fail in the second stage of the chunin exams" Naruto says with a smile

"You know Itachi? Tell me where is he? I have to kill him" he replied with anger

"I don't know where he is, but I do know what he did, no one should have to go through that, I bet you feel alone." says Naruto with sympathy and understanding in his eyes. "May I see you again in the next five days. the others? Not so much" he said as he and his team walk away towards the tower

"Who are you really?" Sasuke asked, but it was too late as Naruto and his team were already gone

——————————

Getting to the tower was easy for Naruto and his team, they did meet another team but Haku made quick work of them. When they got there they were asked to show the scrolls and so they did and were allowed to enter. They each got their own room and chose to get some rest. That's when another team entered

"Well, it seems as though we weren't the first as I thought" said Gaara as he looked at Naruto's team

"Seems not, being second is good though, is it not?" Asked Naruto with a smile. This causes Gaara to frown, his bloodlust started to spread around.

"I recommend that you relax fighting me is not something you want" Naruto says with a smile, while walking away

"Soon mother, I promise I'll tear him apart for you" mumbles Gaara with a grin.

——————————

"So Hiruzen would you like some tea?" I heard that it causes a person to have younger skin and a healthier body" I said with a smile toward Hiruzen to piss him off

"No" he replied thinking of ways to kill me

"You know being so angry is not good for the mind, how could you take care of a village with an unhealthy mind?" I asked him

"I'll be fine" he responded

"Wanna play shogi? I've been practicing with my little brother a lot, did you know he is actually in the exam right now? He is the blond haired kid" I said which angers him even more

"That's wonderful" he said, trying to stay calm and hold back his anger

"You know, I think your my best friend Hiruzen, your such a wise old guy" I told him with a smile. Kakashi and Asuma just looked and were wondering if they should stop me, but decided against that as that would be disrespectful to the leader of a country. So they watched on as I pissed off Hiruzen. Rasa didn't do much, well Orochimaru has him under control so he won't do anything. "Well I'm going to go back to my hotel, in five days we shall see how the exams continue" I say walking out of the office with Zabuza and Kimimaro

"Hokage-sama, if I may ask what did the leader of Nox do that made you seem to hate him so much" asked Kakashi

"Nothing to worry about, it's my problem to deal with, let's just focus on the exams for now" he said. And like that five days passed and the second stage of the chunin exams ended.
