Spiraling Comet of Konoha

Naruto, the Spiraling Comet Shinobi

Previously on Spiraling Comet of Konoha,

"Hey!" And the moment was ruined what Kiba just had to open his big mouth. "What about the rest of us!? You are acting like you can just take all of them out! And what about everything you went about on teamwork!?" Naruto said nothing, with the impression of his eyes covered by shadow.

Then he faced the Sound Four, now all are trying to get up from not only the exploding crate but Naruto's humiliating beat down. The blonde then activated his gauntlets and slammed them together. That caused a shockwave that covered the entire Sound Four and a good portion of land around them!

"I can do this all day if I have too. I have enough energy to go around. But as a Chunin, I need to take you in for attempted kidnapping, assaulting a good girl and breaking our good record. Let's see just how strong you all really are when you seem so pathetic." Naruto said, in a tone that meant no nonsense.

"You are right. That was pathetic so that is why Lord Orochimaru sent me to take care of you Uzumaki." A new voice emerged but the rest of the Sound Four shivered in fear. Meanwhile,

"Guys, go and chose one of the four. Whoever this one is, he is stronger than any of them, even combined. I will take care of him." Naruto said to his team and they nodded. And when there was only Naruto left on the field, the fifth Oto Shinobi comer finally showed himself.

"My name is Kimimaro of the Kaguya Clan and you will die for this humiliation!" Kimimaro wore a specialized version of the traditional Oto-nin ensemble, consisting of a light lavender, loose-fitting, long-sleeved, zip-up shirt, black pants cut off around mid-calf, bandages wrapped around his ankles, traditional shinobi sandals, and a purple, rope-like belt tied in an inverted bow around his waist. He also wore two red, tube-like hair ornaments; one on either side of his head, securing two locks of his silvery-white hair.

"You can try. And plenty have failed." Naruto spoke while cracking his knuckles through his gloves while the silver fox head and fox feet features on his new outfit started to twitch. Then there was this silver fox head again but covered Naruto's head, followed by a hood that came out of nowhere. "Bring it!"

"If you think that passing yourself as a consumed freak is going to allow you to win then you are dead wrong." Kimimaro said, "Yanagi no Mai." The Oto Shinobi then crouched and surprised Naruto slightly by rapidly growing bone on a few spots on his body. Then Kimimaro showed very considerable speed as he moved in to strike Naruto, and landed five hits in less than five seconds.

Thankfully, Naruto was able to avoid and block to the attacks after he saw a nearby tree sliced through with a clean slice of the strange bones. The gauntlets were really helpful as they are as hard as the bones are sharp. "Pretty nice. No wonder Orochimaru went out of his way to turn you into a back-up battery for his hopeless purse of immortally."

"You know nothing!" Kimimaro shouted and continued his dance of sharp bones hitting various points while mostly being blocked. The dance was broken when Naruto was able to get some distance by,

"Kitsune Tsuuro: Zen'I!" While this worked against weakened and disorientated Tayuya, Kimimaro was able to survive it by avoiding the extreme scratch attack that created three deep claw marks in the grass field. "That was for distance and now for close-combat." Naruto said and then charged like a torpedo launched through water.

'Damm!' Kimimaro saw that Naruto was fast too, almost faster than he is. It was time for a second dance. "Karamatsu no Mai!" The Oto Shinobi covered his body with sharp bones acting similar to the quills of a porcupine. And yet Naruto was able to land his attack on Kimimaro,

"Like I said, nice that you were able to counter-attack my Wani Denka Shikon." Naruto said, wiping off several bone pieces and even some drops of blood. "But let's see how strong your guard is." Naruto then charged at Kimimaro once again, with leaving barely any time for the Oto Shinobi to reboot his defensive and offensive Ninjutsu.

But instead of a straight strike like Kimimaro was reading for, Naruto instead broke off and moved around the former's body once before stopping. "What do you think?" Kimimaro couldn't answer until he noticed that the grass around them and several of the trees nearby cut clean through! "It is harder to do, even for me, but the Bibu Okkakeru Shikon has beautiful results."

The shock and anguish that was building up in Kimimaro's mind was beginning to show with twitching and grumbling. Naruto was wondering what is going on until he got his answer, Kimimaro started to change. His plan skin turned a creepy darker tone and he took on devilish features, making him look like a demon.

"Now I am not holding back, you will die!" Rather than a madman, Kimimaro actually looked intimidating and more like an actual demon. And Kimimaro's new and improved body had caused his Yanagi no Mai to be even faster and stronger. Naruto could barely keep up and actually lost some blood and his cloak was severely damaged. But when the sleeves were fully sheared,

"W-what the hell?" Kimimaro said as Naruto balanced himself out on the grass field. The Otogakure Shinobi now saw what made the blonde almost invincible to his bone-like bloodline. There was chain-link all over the torso, reaching to the neck and reached a few inches past the waist. But that wasn't what confused and shocked Kimimaro,

"Surprised to see chains?" Naruto said, moving his hands to 'dust' himself. But he was actually cleaning the chains that covered both arms completely of bone pieces from Kimimaro's previous attacks. "It isn't like they come from nowhere and I need to put them somewhere outside of battle. But you didn't think of that because you are just a dumb grunt with a bloodline that made ours look handsome and godlike. Honestly."

"Shut up!" Kimimaro shouted as he did the one thing that grossed and bothered Naruto the most yet. The Otogakure Shinobi practically pulled out his own spine; and even swung it like some kind of whip! "Tessenka no Mai: Tsuru!"

Although the bone spikes on the 'whip' are notably sharp, they failed to even damage Naruto's gauntlets or his chain covered arms. But Naruto was cautious when Kimimaro made no move to dislodge the whip when it clamped on Naruto's left arm and was grasped by the respective hand.

"And…" Kimimaro said before he channeled chakra into his opposite arm, making it grow bone into something of a drill. "Tessenka no Mai: Hana!" Kimimaro charged with the bone drill ready to dig a hole in Naruto's stomach. That was when Kimimaro noticed that Naruto's right gauntlet glowed in strange patterns.

But it was too late when Naruto was able to halt the bone drill like there was nothing to it. "That is impressive but there is always a catch that comes with being impressive, is there?" Naruto smirked to see that Kimimaro started to pant significantly. "So check this out! Natto Kanpan Shikon!"

Kimimaro was shocked to see that Naruto's gauntlets had suddenly clapped shut around the blonde's hands and snapped off his spine whip and his bone drill. "You thought that these were just for show? You haven't anything yet!" Naruto then kicked back his opponent before charging after the Oto Shinobi.

"Tessenka no Mai: Hana!" Kimimaro saw that Naruto had no room for dodging and then attacking; a tactic that worked almost with the Tessenka no Mai: Tsuru acting first. But he underestimated Naruto once again,

"Chou Kaku Shikon!" Naruto's hand went off like a flash and to the horror of Kimimaru, the bone drill was chipped off to his bare skin almost instantly. "Neat huh?" Naruto asked as he gently shook his gauntlets clean of bone pieces.

He smirked to see that Kimimaro's shock slowly but surely turn to anger and disbelief. "And before you try to waste chakra again…" Naruto then reeled in his other arm and thrusted into the direction of Kimimaro's left arm. "Bunta Karite Shikon!" It was in an instant but when Kimimaro felt incredible pain in his right arm, he turned to see that only his forearm was left on the stump; it disappeared along with a mile or two of the lawn on the grass field.

And while all this is happening, a reunion is happening.

"Glad to see you all still alive." Neji said while dropping the beaten form of Kidomaru which made his own wounds look rather handsome. The spider like Oto Shinobi still put up a good fight against Naruto's brief beat down. It only took Shino included to defeat Kidomaru.

Neji's clan exclusive Taijutsu style was pretty much all he had against the spider themed Ninjutsu and unique Taijutsu. That was where Shino came in, with his bug themed Ninjutsu had helped Neji's Taijutsu cover any gaps in their assault. Eventually, Kidomaru ran out of chakra to use so it was easy for Shino to trap him and Neji to deliver a real beat down.

"You had your help and it seems that we got our own." Choji said as he and Lee brought back Jirobo. Unlike Kidomaru, this Oto Shinobi was primary Taijutsu and only had a few Ninjutsu. He used Doton style Jutsu named Doton Kekkai: Dorō Dōmu for trapping, Doton: Doryō Dango for intimidation, and Doton: Doroku Gaeshi for defense.

"Troublesome. I actually had to ask a girl to help me." Shikamaru grumbled while being bashed on the head by Temari, princess from Sunagakure that once were enemies during the Konoha Invasion. But now they are trying to make amends from letting a rogue Shinobi deceive them into believing he was their Kazekage. And just now, she was the one carrying the knocked out redhead.

"Shut up! I got you out of that jam with that Oto bitch!" Temari and Shikamaru found themselves trying to avoid and endure illusions that don't require eyesight and instead, it was generated by sound instead. That made Tayuya very dangerous to be near. But because she was injured and near exhausted, it was easier done than said for sure.

"It seems that you had your own fun. Gaara and I sure did with this mangy mutt of a Genin!" Kankuro was another Shinobi from Suna; in fact, Temari was his sister and Gaara was his brother.

"Whatever, it was overkill for sure against that two headed freak! Now how am I going to explain this to my mom!?" Kiba ranted which everyone ignored as well as the body with two knocked out heads. The three were definitely too much for even a Jonin-level Oto Shinobi; not with Kiba's team techniques with a feral puppy, Kankuro's mastery over deadly puppets and Gaara's demonic control over sand in general.

"Whatever. Uzumaki is late." Gaara said in a monotone that still creped everyone out. The least they can be relieved that there were no traces left of Gaara's old bloodlust for any possible opponents that will 'prove his existence'.

"He does have that fifth member of the Sound Four to take care off. And I have a feeling that Naruto is just taking his time to enjoy a good fight since this Oto Shinobi really does make these look weak." Shikamaru maybe lazy like the other men and boys in his clan, but he knows how to respect a good person and who to give any respect to; it just doesn't get him out of trouble, it is the reverse.

"He better be done before these wake up. I can't believe that Naruto gave us the order not to kill. And it is all because he is a Jonin-level Shinobi with a Chunin rank." Neji grumbled, his caution showing some slight paranoia and unrest.

"I learned that killing out of uneasiness and blind hate, Shinobi or not, makes us killers." Gaara said. "Naruto showed it all to me and my siblings made it all clear to me. I can't let go of my years with a lust for blood but I am going to protect my friends and family, even by killing."

And, right on cue, no one responded when the earth shook. Heading to the treetops, they saw that the grass field where Naruto chased after the strange, fifth Oto Shinobi to had something white and vast. A closer look showed that those weren't trees or rocks but bone! "What the hell?"

Back with Naruto and Kimimaro,

"Nice. But you will need to try on that aim of yours. I still like the name of Sawarabi no Mai." Naruto said with a smirk while hanging onto a giant tree that was actually part of the effects of Kimimaro's Sawarabi no Mai which creates a forest of them.

"Shut up! Shut up! Shut up!" Kimimaro, however, was not enjoying Naruto's mockery performance. "Why don't you just die!? Teshi Sendan!" Kimimaro shout out bullets of bone from his very fingertips that only bounced off Naruto's gauntlets.

"Why not you?" Naruto said, "Kuro Rensa: Ton Ho!" A speedy chain launched with chakra had shot out of Naruto's defending gauntlet from the bottom of his wrist. And it moved at speeds that it broke the tree-like bone easily and destroyed several behind it. Kimimaro may have the ability to move between the bones made by his technique but he just wasn't fast enough to completely avoid that move.

Kimimaro had gotten a bad hit and had to resort hiding among the various giant bone fragments. 'I guess that the only way to win this is to attack while Uzumaki is not looking. That seems to be the only reason he has survived against me so far.'

And when Kimimaro tried to attack Naruto while off guard, the blonde launched himself forward instead. Then Naruto summoned the weight chain from both of his gauntlets; one grasped one of the tree-like bones awhile the other severed the one that Naruto jumped off.

"NO!" Kimimaro realized that he was tricked and now he had nowhere to run to now the Oto Shinobi was severed from the forest of bones. He was at the mercy of Naruto, his sworn enemy! "Damm you Uzumaki!"

"You should be thanking me." Naruto said in a calm tone that confused Kimimaro but when the blonde sent the chain through the portion that his opponent was popping out; it bounded the Oto Shinobi together. "You are dying. And a warrior just won't accept dying in chains or even in sheets. I am going to give you a way out of your illness."

"Like how! You can't beat me! I am the second strongest in Oto to Lord Orochimaru!" Kimimaro shouted but Naruto ignored him. "Let me go and I will kill you!"

"No. You won't go to your village like this or anywhere else. You deserve to die here with a warrior's honor. Orochimaru only made you a monster." Naruto then switched the chains around his prey to the bottom of his wrist so that he could open the palm of his right hand. "Now be free, where ever the Snake will never corrupt you ever again!"

Kimimaro then felt like the chains around his exhausted body were moving again but at an alarming rate, towards Naruto! "No! Let me go! Let me go! I will kill you this!" Kimimaro tried to use intimidation as his last resort to survive but to no avail.

"No you won't. I will kill you for threatening my teammate that I called brother and try to turn him in a monster. I will never forgive you or any Oto Shinobi!" Naruto then showed his own intimidation, this time succeeding against Kimimaro. "Futon: Rasen…" Naruto said while air and pure chakra combined started to swirl and form some kind of sphere; one that soon started to look like a comet from the skies. "Suisei!"

Before Kimimaro will try to beg for live again, he was hit by the overwhelming force of the Jutsu. It was so strong that it even ripped off the dark skin and devilish features, revealing the true Kimimaro. "Uzumaki…" Naruto could here that even among the deafening sound of wind crushing bone and flesh. "…thank you…" It is hidden, but under the fox's jaw, a smile is there; even in the face of a young man dying.

End of Chapter 7.

*I guess that seven is my lucky number after all! This is the first time I actually showed the technique that I originally planned for the very first chapter of this story. What do you think, I came up with this while thinking of techniques of spiraling winds after seeing the Futon: Rasenshuriken from the canon.*
