Chapter 105: A Family Reunion
A light green toad appeared in front of Naruto, towering at nearly thirteen feet tall (four ters), with a long curved blade strapped to its back.
"It seems this ti... there's soone for to cut," the toad, Gamadachi, said as he eyed Kisa.
"Be careful, Gamadachi. This one's an S-rank ninja," Naruto warned.
He had summoned Gamadachi instead of soone like Gamabunta because of the limited space inside the town. The street was wide, but the Toad Lord's massive size would cause mass destruction in such close quarters.
Besides, since he was facing a swordsman, Gamadachi seed like a good match. He was the only swordsman toad Naruto had t so far, and thus the best choice for summoning.
"What's this? You brought a frog to fight ?" Kisa said, clearly amused.
Gamadachi narrowed his eyes.
"You'd do well not to underestimate the Toad Clan," he said, unsheathing his sword.
"Ignore his taunts," Naruto said, walking to his side.
"I know this street is too narrow for you to fight properly. Just try to create an opening for ." Since Kisa would likely underestimate them, they may have one small chance to get a good hit on him.
"What about the other one?" Gamadachi gave a side glance at Itachi.
"That one doesn't seem interested in interfering. But if he does… leave him to . Focus on the fish guy." Naruto told him.
"Understood," Gamadachi replied before rushing forward to engage Kisa.
"Ha!" Kisa grinned, clashing his sword with Gamadachi's. "Not bad!"
"Kisa!" Itachi raised his voice in warning.
"Huh?" The voice of his partner put him on full alert, and it was then that he noticed it.
Naruto had slipped behind Kisa, ready to strike. A blue orb of rotating chakra was on his right hand. "Rasengan!"
Kisa moved with blinding speed, deflecting Gamadachi's sword and swinging his own to block Naruto's attack. The Rasengan lost energy and fizzled out before it could reach Kisa's weapon.
"Nice try, but attacks like that won't work on ," Kisa said, as the bandages on his sword unraveled, revealing its true form. "My Sahada can eat any kind of chakra!"
The strange sword emitted a sharp noise, almost as if it was responding to Kisa's words.
"Sahada… that's one of the Seven Mythical Grade swords of the Mist," Gamadachi noted.
"A Mythical Grade sword?" Naruto was intrigued. That ant there were weapons even more powerful than the Legendary Grade ones he had heard of. The fact that mythical weapons had such extraordinary properties piqued his interest. He had known of weapons as such in his past, but never held one in his hands.
"That's right," Kisa said, lifting the sword as its spikes began to move.
"And my Sahada is the best one!" He swung it in a wide arc. The sword's range was so great that Naruto couldn't dodge in ti, and it scraped his arm.
Naruto glanced at his wound. It wasn't a deep cut, and it felt more like he had been scratched by a wild animal. But what concerned him more was the sudden loss of chakra. Just one touch from the sword had drained a significant amount of his energy.
'So, that sword can absorb chakra not just from my attacks, but directly from if it touches ,' he thought, turning to Gamadachi.
'If that thing touches Gamadachi, it'll probably be enough to undo the summon.'
Naruto had learned more about how the Summoning Jutsu worked over the past week after performing a few more tests. If a summoned creature took enough damage, it would be forced back to its point of origin, in the case of the Toad Clan, they return to Mount Myoboku.
Additionally, maintaining the connection required a constant supply of chakra. If Sahada absorbed that chakra, it would likely break that connection and the summon would end prematurely.
"What a ridiculous ability," Naruto muttered. In a world where everything depended on chakra, the power to take it away was a huge advantage.
"Haha! You're damn right," Kisa laughed. "See, Sahada? Even the boy recognizes your greatness."
The sword emitted another sharp noise in response.
"That's enough fooling around," Itachi said, his patience wearing thin. He wasn't sure if Naruto was stalling by talking to Kisa, or if his partner was just being foolish. Either way, they couldn't waste any more ti.
"I'll handle the boy. You deal with the toad." He finally said.
"Eh? Co on, I had everything under control! I was just about to cut his legs off," Kisa protested.
However, before Itachi could make his move, he suddenly dodged to the side, avoiding a barrage of kunai that embedded themselves into the ground with great force.
"Sasuke… what are you doing here?" Itachi asked, his eyes narrowing.
Naruto blinked in surprise.
"I was about to ask the sa thing," he said, as Sasuke landed in front of Itachi. This was the last place he expected to find his teammate.
Sasuke's eyes were locked onto his brother. The two tomoe of his Sharingan spun, focused and full of hatred. "I ca to kill you."
"Oh? Is that your little brother? He looks just like you," Kisa comnted. "So, I guess you didn't kill your entire clan after all… you left one."
The remark seed to push Sasuke over the edge. His anger reached its boiling point, and without another word, sparks of electricity ford in his palm.
"That's…" Naruto watched closely, recognizing sothing familiar about the technique. It reminded him of his Rasengan, but it used an elental nature and had a different rotation.
'Is this what Sasuke learned during his month with Kakashi?' Naruto wondered.
His teammate hadn't had the chance to show off his progress, since the tournant was canceled after the attack on Konoha.
'So this must be from Kakashi's arsenal.' Naruto concluded.
Sasuke moved with lightning speed, thrusting his right arm forward.
"Lightning Release: Chidori!"
