Back to the past, Believe it!

Ch.56 One person's conviction

They still had to be miles away from the village, but they could feel the rumble beneath their feet.

Sasuke held his breath. Sasuke knew what this rumbling was. So did Shikamaru. They both glanced at each other before speeding up considerably. They had to leave Obito behind some time ago, he had chakra exhaustion and couldn't go on like they could.

"We need to go faster." Shikamaru finally said. Sasuke narrowed his eyes. He knew Shikamaru was pushing his limit when it came to speed. "What are you suggesting Shikamaru?" Sasuke was quiet. Shikamaru's eyes tightened. "You need to go, you need to leave me behind. And I will catch up." Sasuke looked ahead of himself.

"Ok." Sasuke finally said. Shikamaru nodded. "It's okay. I will be fine." Sasuke looked at his friend. "Alright." Sasuke finally let himself go faster. He himself was now pushing his limits, but now he will arrive in less than 10 minutes.

Naruto used the rasenshuriken to take out the dragonfly but that had to be the least of his problems.

"I no longer can buy any time." The realization was unfortunate. But Pein wasn't holding back, Pein most likely realized the threat Naruto actually was to him.

"I cannot wait any longer." Naruto said out loud as he stared at the many Peins before him. He felt a sudden surge of chakra in himself. He had sent a clone to perform sage meditation.

Naruto's appearance had now changed. He had orange lining around his eyes and his pupal's were now rectangles, his eyes a yellowish orange.

He felt the glare of Pein when he transformed. "It seems you truly we're a student of Jiraiya." Pein's voice had been blank.

"I wouldn't lie of such things." Naruto felt his heart bubble with an undecided sadnesses.

"Maybe..." Naruto looked at the mechanical Pein that was throwing an assortment of things at him. "Maybe I can buy some more time." Naruto leapt forward with such speed that it cracked the ground beneath him. He felt his hand touch the face of the summoning pain and threw him into the ground.

They may be able to see in different directions because of the Rinnegan. But his speed could outmatch it.

He felt a hot sensation near his ear. He could smell the metallic smell that blood had. He could no longer hear out of his right ear.

He looked to his side. Behind him was a rod, a rod that glowed red because it was so hot. It must have hit his ear and caused his eardrum to burst.

Of course, despite his speed that doesn't make him not predictable where he will be next.

Hiruzen stared in awe as he watched Naruto turn into an orange flash and best one of the Peins into the ground. Kakashi looked briefly back to the Hokage. "We need to rescue anybody we can. We cannot help Naruto, especially when he doesn't need it." The Hokage's face turned dark.

"Shuisi had called Naruto the Hokage. Naruto said he never got the chance. Naruto surly would have became the Hokage had he gotten the chance to do so." The Hokage snapped himself out of his thoughts. He looked back up at Kakashi.

"Let's hurry and evacuate people as well." Kakashi nodded and the both of them were digging up any rubble that encased a person beneath it.

Naruto observed the situation he was in. He was in a situation he has been in before, but now he was a lot more powerful. But the ability's of his enemy's weren't something to laugh at either.

"You are wasting my time." Pein finally said. Naruto looked at him. "I will get the Kyūbi chakra. Even if I have to destroy an entire village to do so." Pein said with malice.

Naruto didn't have time to react. Pein was put his hand out and sent Naruto flying into air. It didn't last long. Sasuke had stopped him. Naruto looked at Sasuke but continued his attention to Pein.

Pein looked more annoyed than ever now. Naruto didn't have to buy time any longer.

"Your view on the idea hate has blinded you. You no longer know what is and what isn't." Naruto finally said. Pein scoffed. "Anybody that hasn't suffered does not know what hate is. I'm only informing those who haven't what others have felt." Naruto's eyes narrowed.

"On Shinobi?" Peins eyes widened. "You know as well as I, that when you are a Shinobi, you experience loss on greater levels than any person." Peins eyes narrowed.

Suddenly another wave of weapons went their way. Sasuke moved his mouth but no words came out. Naruto eyes widened, Naruto couldn't hear Sasuke. Naruto moved to the mechanical Pein. He had enough.

The Pein jumped away. Naruto gave chase. The Pein kept just out of reach of Naruto. Naruto grumbled and finally, he turned yellow he felt his arm stretch into a claw and he grabbed the Pein before they could make any movement to dodge. He felt his fist clench and so did the claw. The Pein fell to he floor revealing several mechanical enhancing parts. He eyed the Pein that could bring this one back to life.

Sasuke understood what Naruto's glare meant.

Sasuke was behind the life Pein and unsheathed his sword. His sword glowed a light blue and sparks surrounded his hand. Sasuke mouth heated up and he blew the Uchiha clans signature Justu. Fire erupted around the Pein. Suddenly the wind screamed as Sasuke swung his sword taking the head of the Pein. Before Sasuke moved further he felt something dig into his leg.

"Wha-" Sasuke finished his sentence with a wince. The Pein he had just killed took his last moments to stab his leg.

Pein looked around at the scene before him. It seemed the yellow haired one had been holding back. And now another that has the Sharingan and Rinnegan had appeared and had unmatchable speed.

Pein felt himself get restless. He knew his power was powerful, but now, he was backed into a corner. His other Peins were to far away to make it in time. The two mystery Shinobi looked at him. He saw that around himself there were maybe one hundred Shinobi with an aura around themselves, including the Uchiha clan. The Pein silently sighed. He felt every chakra reserve he had shrink into almost nothing but he could feel the pressure that was now hundreds of meters above himself. Then, there was no sun. Only shadow encased the leaf.
