S-Rank Naruto

Chapter 4

Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto, if I did then Naruto would be able to fight his opponents without relying on luck and last second power ups.

Note: I didn't get any reviews for the last chapter, so I'll do what ever I want for the questions I asked. I understand why though, I updated late, at a weird time and the section was fairly dry. However, if you want my writing to improve I'll need reviews be they positive or negative. Also I added the description for Naruto at the beginning of the first chapter in this fic and at the end of Jiraiya's Intense Training.

Chapter 4: First Contact

When Sakura had finished making the antidote for the poison that was used on Kankuro with an additional three doses to help them during the mission to rescue Gaara she went to get Kakashi and Naruto. Kicking them both lightly in the shins she stated. "I'm done let's get moving."

"Ow! That hurt! I know you had to get us up, but you didn't need to kick us Sakura-chan!" Cried Naruto as he and Kakashi jumped up and started moving towards the gates of Sunagakure.

"Well it seemed like the fastest way to get you two moving. I made three additional vials of antidote for Sasori's poison for who ever gets hit by his attacks. Once they are used they will be effective for about five minutes for counteracting small amounts of additional poison, however if you get too much poison in your system it could overwhelm the antidote forcing you to take another dose." Said Sakura.

"Well give two to Lady Chiyo and one to Naruto they will be fighting Sasori of all goes to plan." Stated Kakashi as Chiyo appeared next to the group.

"Were you trying to ditch me here little leaves?" Asked Chiyo.

"Not at all, we had full confidence you would join up with us before we left the village" Stated Kakashi with an eye smile as Sakura handed her and Naruto the antidote.

"Administer that to anyone who is hit by Sasori and exhibits signs of Sasori's poison." Sakura explained to Chiyo.

"Shouldn't that just be whoever gets hit by Sasori?" Asked Chiyo.

"In general yes." Replied Sakura. "But we are not sure that it will effect Naruto, his tenant gives him regenerative capabilities. We aren't sure if the poison will bypass them or not. In addition to this he has access to corrosive chakra which might be able to burn the poison out of his system before too much damage is done."

As they left the city and got to the point that Kankuro was found Kakashi was about to summon Pakkun to help them track Gaara when Naruto stopped him stating. "No need Kakashi. Gaara's sand armor has been falling off of him as they moved. It still holds a small amount of his chakra which I can sense."

"Okay Naruto take point, but maintain the pace that we have been going at. Any faster would be more detrimental than would be safe." Replied Kakashi as he fell back to follow Naruto.

They had been running for a few hours before Naruto first sensed something strange. It felt like it was made of wood, but it was shaped mostly like a human and was moving. He thought about telling Kakashi about it, but decided that they were short on time and wouldn't do anything about it unless it made a hostile move. He also decided that not bringing up while it was in range to observe them could lose him the element of surprise if it was hostile. It was extremely difficult to sense, and he wouldn't be able to at all if he wasn't able to sense natural chakra. It would probably assume that it couldn't be sensed at all. It was about an hour after that that he noticed something else that didn't make sense, but this was much more dangerous so he decided to tell Kakashi about it. "Kakashi-sensei there is a man almost a mile ahead of us, but he feels really weird."
