Naruto's Note

As you all know, I'll be attacking the sand. It'll be a year from now. Why am I telling you this? It's because I want my fights to be interesting. You all are weak, but maybe the Naras' brilliant minds can make a plan. I am excited about this battle. Don't disappoint.

End of Note

That's what the note read. It's already been a year and they found that the best option was to assemble the most powerful ninja in the world to fight. That involved seeking an alliance with a village Naruto founded. The leaders, Itachi, Izumi, Kakuzu, and Hidan, were all prepared. Naruto told them his plan for world peace and all of them were fine with it. Kakuzu and Hidan both had grown attached to Naruto as well, so they were fine with helping, even though it meant losing him. Naruto had given all four of them a second chance at redemption and they all were taking it and helping Naruto in return. Naruto's village trained shinobi in specialized 1-on-1's with instructors. It helped a lot to improve the quality of ninja too.

Naruto was jumping from tree to tree, avoiding the team of ninja sent to find him. He could still sense them and felt that they were moving in quickly. He felt the presence of Kiba, Mito, Satsuki, Sakura, and Sasuke all approaching him quickly. Naruto sighed and stopped. He knew this fight was going to be rough. Right on cue, Sakura, Sasuke, Satsuki, Mito, and lastly, Kiba, all landed in the clearing. Naruto turned around. "Hello," He spoke softly, voice blanketing the battleground like fog, coming out gently like a soft whisper. His voice seemed to swirl magically as if it were a gentle breeze that merely ruffled one's hair but did nothing more. 

Sasuke jumped in front of Naruto, an angered look on his face. "You were our sensei! You taught us comradery! Then you just up and leave!" Sasuke exclaimed fiercely before weaving through hand signs as if he were making a painting. "Fire style, Fire Blast!" Sasuke yelled. A giant wall of fire appeared in front of Naruto and quickly moved towards him. "Wind style, super breakthrough," Naruto yelled. No hand signs were made, but a giant gust of wind came from his mouth when he yelled "through" and swept away the flames. Sakura was suddenly behind him, sending a fist in his direction. "CHANNARO!" She yelled as her fist came crashing down at Naruto. She noticed him raise his one hand. 'Ha! I poured everything I have into this punch and I can feel that no chakra is coming from his hand! There's no way he's stopping this!' Sakura thought as her fist crashed into his hand. Under his feet, a crater formed and he looked up. "You done? Then it's my turn!" Naruto yelled. He twisted his arm to grab Sakura's wrist and threw her into Sasuke. He then tossed a kunai in their direction, only for it to be blocked. "FANG OVER FANG!" Kiba yelled. I think "Fang Passing Fang" sounds really dumb so I'm gonna use the dub version for this. Naruto sighed. Every clan had easy-to-copy moves that only required chakra, and on certain occasions, energy sources like calories, to use. He knew Kiba only rotated one way and caught his ear dropping a pepper bomb on him. He quickly teleported to the kunai Kiba had knocked away, only to raise both arms with kunai in hand to block a strike from Sasuke's sword and Sakura's kunai. 

He jumped back, flipping several times to gain momentum. He then went underground. Sasuke smirked. "Fire style, White Flames!" Sasuke yelled. He shot white flames towards the ground, causing it to turn to lava and slowly sink down. Naruto made the dog seal, which is the main seal for water infusion, and cloaked himself in a light waterskin-type cloak. The cloak burned away and Naruto raised his arms in a cross-formation. The chakra he cloaked his arms with took the brunt of the damage and he went skidding back. He noticed his cloak was burned and he took it off. "Light style, flash," Naruto said, teleporting away from where he was to where Mito and Satsuki were. The two immediately turned to punch him and he caught both of them with ease. He then stole their chakra and infused it into his fingers, sending the two flying with the force of their own punches. He then felt Sasuke's presence behind him. He took a Ryo out of his pocket and flipped it into the air, making it land face-up, or heads. The coin morphed into a katana and he twisted, blocking the strike that Sasuke made from his katana. To those of you that are confused, the katana that the coin morphed into is his main katana. It also morphs into his scythe/spear thing. Naruto then pulled out a silver version of the Ryo, but with the words "heads" and "tails" inscribed on each side instead of the usual money sign. He then flipped that coin and his secondary weapon, his tanto, appeared. He used it to block a strike from Sakura. Naruto then jumped into the air, avoiding a punch from Mito. He followed that with a twist and an elbow to Satsuki, who'd jumped up to get him while he couldn't dodge. He then felt two presences coming at him rapidly, causing him to curl into a ball, minimizing his surface area. Kiba and Akamaru's "Wolf fang over fang" barely missed him. He then landed on the ground, skidding to a halt.

Sasuke, Sakura, Kiba, and Akamaru were all heavily panting and Mito and Satsuki stood there. Naruto simply stared at them, a bored expression on his face. "I thought I trained you all better than that," Naruto muttered. Kiba and Akamaru let out a mad growl and Sasuke and Sakura were still panting. He then felt a presence under him and jumped, showing a Mito clone with a thumbs up. He didn't know what was happening until he noticed the other four, them being Sasuke, Sakura, Kiba, and Akamaru, all turned to smoke. Naruto grunted. "A trick that won't even work," he muttered. He felt five presences rapidly approaching him and he realized what happened. One of them was going for him directly, and one each took a direction he could escape too. Plus, Mito was guarding his kunai. He sighed. 'Didn't think I would need to use this again,' Naruto thought to himself. He quickly pulled out a familiar purple-bluish orb and threw it far into the trees. Right as Satsuki was about to hit him, he vanished. "That was close," Naruto muttered as he picked up his orb. He then felt a faint disturbance in the air and ducked on instinct. Mito and Satsuki skidded to a halt in front of him. He let out a smirk. Since he was the enemy, it meant he could have some fun against them.
