Chapter 117 - Yuna's Message For Hashirama
"Yo, old man. You look like you are having a bad time."
"Yuna!?"
"Haha, the one and only."
Hiruzen looked at the four people approaching him in surprise. Truth be told he was rather relieved that he got some support. Although the first and second Hokage's strength is very far away from their prime, Orochimaru alone would have already been a huge challenge for Hiruzen. On the other hand, this fight would be very dangerous, especially due to Hashirama's powerful wood release, so he would rather prevent other people from being dragged into it.
Orochimaru, meanwhile, was surprised that someone managed to get inside the barrier. He quickly gave the barrier surrounding them a glance, but couldn't find anything wrong with it.
"Hehe, I knew you were a pretty f*ed up dude, Orochimaru, but know, you even came up with a method to summon the dead."
After Yuna said that, an awkward silence descended between the people present causing Yuna to tilt her head in confusion. Before she could ask what was going on, the second Hokage, Tobirama Senju, started to speak.
"*Cough* I am the one that developed that jutsu…"
""""…""""
"A-Anyway, as I was saying, only a real genius could come up with something this f*ed u…*cough* amazing."
"Haha, this little girl sure has a sharp tongue, doesn't she, Tobirama. But still, you shouldn't be here, this is not a fight you can participate in, little girl."
"Hehe, first of all, the name is Yuna Uzumaki and I am actually here for you, Hashirama. I have got a message for you."
Hashirama tilted his head in confusion.
"A message? For me?"
"Yup, here it comes…"
Yuna's facial features changed. Her pupils became red, while her whole face became more savage and her whiskers became more pronounced. Yuna started speaking again, but this time her voice sounded much deeper than previously.
[Hashirama, you bastard, I can finally get some revenge! I will tear you to shreds for what you have done!]
Everyone, except for Anko, looked at Yuna in bewilderment. The first one to regain his bearing was Hashirama.
"Was that…the Kyuubi?"
"Yup. Seems like he doesn't like you very much. Not too surprising, considering that you are responsible for him and his siblings being imprisoned for almost 100 years. Oh well, he said I can have as much chakra as I want as long as I use it to kick your ass, so how about we get this started?"
"Kuku, indeed. You four being here won't make much of a difference. Or rather this might be a good chance for me. I can't wait to dissect you and find out why you can use ice style."
The moment Orochimaru finished talking, Hashirama started to go through hand signs and started speaking at the same time.
"Careful, I am going to use wood style."
When Hashirama said that, everyone took some distance from him except for Yuna. She boldly stepped forwards and clapped her hands together. A red chakra cloak that had three tails appeared around her.
"Hahaha, wood style!? LET ME EXPERIENCE IT!!!"
"[Wood Style: Forest Genesis]"
"[Ice Style: Majestic Heavenly Glacier Creation]"
From Hashirama's side, massive trees started growing out of the ground at an insane speed. On Yuna's side, instead of trees, gigantic masses of ice were created. When the two jutsu met, the massive trees were frozen solid just to break free from the ice and be frozen yet again. The two jutsu clashed for quite a while, and when the clash was over, one half of the battlefield was overgrown with trees, while the other turned into a frozen tundra.
Seeing that his jutsu was actually blocked, Hashirama couldn't help but laugh.
"HAHAHA! Amazing! There is actually someone in the younger generation who ca…*SMACK* *BOOM*"
Before he could finish his sentence, Yuna appeared before him and smashed her fist into his face and sent him flying. Joyful laughter escaped Yuna's mouth that was much deeper than her usual voice.
[HAHAHA, THAT FELT GREAT!!! I WANNA PUNCH HIM SOME MORE!!! LET'S GO, YUNA!!!]
Then, she switched back to her normal voice.
"HAHAHA, YOU CAN DO MORE THAN THAT, RIGHT, HASHIRAMA!!!? THIS WILL BE A LOT OF FUN!!!"
Three chains burst out of Yuna's back and combined themselves with one tail each, causing her tails to be layered in a thin layer of ice. Without another word, Yuna shot toward Hashirama, her three tails swishing around menacingly, while her laughter would occasionally switch its pitch from male-sounding to female-sounding.
Seeing Yuna happily rampaging around, Anko couldn't help but chuckle a little, which caused Hiruzen to glare at her.
"You knew about her strength, didn't you?"
"Haha, of course not."
After hearing Anko's obvious lie, Hiruzen's glare intensified even further, but he decided not to say anything about that for now. Anko, meanwhile, was smirking at Orochimaru.
"Hehe, you might not know this, but I am the one that cut off your head when we fought inside the Forest of Death and I can't wait to do it again."
After she said that, the skin around her eyes started to change color the same way Hinata's did, but instead of blue, it turned red.
"Hehe, let's see how close this can bring me to your level."
Orochimaru's eyes widened when he saw the small change Anko went through.
'Why can she do that as well? I thought that the Hyuga girl had some kind of mutation, but that doesn't seem to be the case. It must be some kind of technique or jutsu then. I want it. I absolutely want to have it.'
Seeing the greed in Orochimaru's eyes, Anko chuckled again.
'I don't know exactly how outrageous this cultivation technique Yuna gave me is, but considering Orochimaru is almost drooling, it should be really good stuff. Not too surprising, I guess. Considering it's Yuna, it would be more surprising if It wasn't something outrageous.'
While Anko was preparing for her second fight against Orochimaru, Hinata assembled a small shinobi squad consisting of her and 3 three Uzumaki clan members. All three of them called her Hinata-sama which would take a while to get used to for Hinata, but there was nothing she could do about that right now.
She had just exited the arena with her little squad when she saw the lone Hyuga girl that was left behind to spectate the matches, fighting against an Oto shinobi. Hinata's first instinct was to simply ignore her, but that felt wrong to her.
As soon as Hinata started to pay more attention to her, however, Hinata noticed something rather curious.
'She is using the gentle fist, but she has clearly learned a different combat style as well and probably doesn't want to show it in public. I have spent quite a while studying the gentle style to make it easier to bully…*cough* defeat Neji, so I can see the small differences in style rather easily. Additionally, she is quite strong as well. She probably could match Neji in strength… Oh well, not my problem.'
A small bubble of water gathered on the tip of Hinata's finger and shot towards the Oto shinobi, piercing through his chest and into his heart, dealing a lethal blow.
The Hyuga girl was surprised when something suddenly pierced through her opponent's chest but after searching around with her Byakugan for a short moment, she noticed Hinata. Hinata half expected the girl to glare at her, after all, Hinata had piled quite a bit of shame onto the Hyuga clan today. To her surprise, however, the girl gave her a thankful bow, which Hinata answered with a nod of her head.
'How curious. She seems to be a little different from the usual Hyuga. Well, I don't really have time to play around.'
"Let's keep going, I found a group of Suna shinobi."
"""Yes, Hinata-sama!"""
'Urgh, this will take some time to get used to.'
