"Kyuubi Speech"

'Kyuubi Thoughts'

- Naruto's POV -

Running through the forests of Hi no Kuni towards Mizu no Kuni. I spent most of my time talking to Kurama about what we should expect from Isobu.

I was informed that his skin is resistant to almost anything, and his only weakness is his eye.

We kept running in silence as focus, was key in this situation, that is till we ran into some unexpected guests.

A fist came crashing down behind Tou-San sending him flying off.

'Shit!' I mentally yelled. Three more enemies walked out from behind some trees.

The first one dark-brown hair with black eyes. He wore a purple loose-fitting vest, while his midsection was covered in bandages and tan pants. As well as some weird blue Pancho-like apparel around his neck and black wrist-warmers.

The next one had purple hair and grey eyes. They wore a black cloak and undershirt while they had lavender pants. Lastly, the most distinguishable item they had was a gas mask covering the lower half of their face.

The last one... like what the hell is that? They wore a blue slime-covered body suit from head to toe and all that showed was a wide-eyed creepy.

"Yeah quick question for mucus brain before we get started. What the hell are you wearing?" I asked, causing a laugh from the first.

His partners looked at him judgingly.

"What no one ever called him that before and it kinda fits," He tried to justify.

"Hinata check on Kakashi-Sensei," I whispered while they were distracted.

"He is alright and handling his foe now," She replied as we focused back on the enemies at hand.

"Kigari do it," The one that was laughing said as a yellowish smoke rolled into the area. I couldn't see or smell anything in this stuff.

I made a few hand signs before I had to dodge an attack from my left.

"Ohh a sensory type," Mucus Brains said.

"That's not all I can do girly," I replied.

"I am a MAN!" He yelled as his arm stretched from his body like an elastic band.

'Shit!' I yelled mentally not prepared for such an attack.

'I need to get rid of this fog damn it," I thought, but I suddenly heard a small clicking noise. I didn't know what to make of it at the moment when I ran into something or rather someone.

I turned around with a kunai in hand to see the pink hair of Sakura Haruno.

"Damn it Naruto, don't scare me like that," I was about to say something when I felt mucus brain's presence.

"DUCK!" I yelled as I pulled her down and pushed her out of the way, and I was finally able to make the hand signs I needed.

"Fūton: Daitoppa!" I yelled as the large gust of wind dispersed the smoke around us.

"And you are a Fūton user. This may be a problem," Mucus Brain said with a rather upsetting glare.

"Where are the others?" Sakura asked.

I did my best to locate other people but I couldn't Identify them while in the middle of combat yet.

Dodging multiple strikes from the "Man" I was able to pinpoint a few people's locations.
