Chapter 121: There Will Be Nothing Left

Kabuto moved aside to make room and blocked Naruto's kick.

"Tsk! Don't get arrogant with me. I only need a second to kill you." Kabuto didn't feel like he needed to keep up appearances anymore, since this person was going to die anyway.

His chakra scalpels appeared once more, aimed at Naruto's vital points.

Naruto deflected the scalpels away from him by hitting on Kabuto's arms and wrists. He was well aware of how dangerous they could be.

Kabuto then sent a kick toward his chest, and Naruto blocked it by twisting his body and using his calf to intercept the attack.

As soon as he did this, he realized the mistake.

A smile appeared on Kabuto's face as Naruto felt something cut deep into his leg.

When he tried to put his foot down, he had no control over his right leg and lost balance.

"You thought I could only make them with my hands?" Kabuto said with a satisfied grin. "It's over now."

He moved closer and aimed his next attack at Naruto's neck, not expecting much more resistance. But when he saw the blonde boy's face, Kabuto became alarmed.

Naruto's cheeks were completely puffed, as if they were filled with something.

In the next instant, Naruto spat a mouthful of oil on Kabuto's face before lighting it up in flames.

This was the other fire jutsu he had learned, called Fire Bullet. Despite its name, it was a very versatile technique. The user created oil using chakra and spat it out. It was possible to create small fireballs but also throw everything out in one large wave of flames.

"Ahhh!" Kabuto screamed and threw himself on the ground, rolling to extinguish the flames.

Before he could recover, Kabuto saw a kunai land next to him. There was a red rune inscribed on its side, shining brightly.

Kabuto jumped away just as the kunai exploded.

That was a rank 1 fire seal. Less potent than a high-quality explosive seal, but Naruto could create them on the fly, with no need for paper or ink.

"You bastard!" Kabuto's face was completely covered in third-degree burns.

He could recover from that, of course, but the pain was unbearable.

Another fire kunai exploded next to him and exploded. Naruto wasn't giving him time to catch his breath.

Kabuto took refuge underground to escape the barrage of explosions, using an earth jutsu, and Naruto had to stop once his kunai began to run low.

'That should be enough time...' he concluded.

While his body was moving in the real world, his mind was working just as hard to make the arrangements.

There was one technique in his current arsenal that should be enough to decimate his opponent to a degree that would make regeneration impossible.

But he needed to pull far more chakra from the demon than he had ever pulled before...at least in practice.

His calculations were rarely wrong, so he was confident about this.

Kabuto emerged from the ground, looking dirty, wounded, and annoyed.

"Is that all you got?..."

"You look upset. Does your face still hurt?" Naruto asked.

Kabuto began to laugh. "This is not a big deal. I've recovered from much worse. There's nothing a genin like you can do that I couldn't recover from. So stay there and die like a good boy."

Naruto waited patiently as Kabuto approached, his chakra knives in hand, ready to cut him into pieces.

He began to circulate chakra and form the strongest layer of protection around him that he could muster. But this was not to protect himself from Kabuto's attack...it was for his own one.

The spy noticed that Naruto was doing something, but he couldn't guess what. Still, he acted with precaution. Despite what he said, he wasn't going to disregard Naruto's capabilities completely. After all, Naruto was the Jinchuuriki of the Kyubi and could still surprise him.

The moment he entered the area surrounding Naruto, Kabuto immediately sensed that something was wrong.

He wasn't a chakra sensor, but his instincts were sharp after a lifetime of working as a spy. First for Danzo, and then for Orochimaru.

Despite the distance, Orochimaru and Tsunade must have felt something too, because they stopped what they were doing and glanced down at the ground, where the two young men were fighting.

"You know…" Naruto's eyes changed color to a deep orange. "There's a passage in one of the academy books that I read recently. It lists rules that all ninjas should follow..."

"What are you…" Kabuto noticed the ground shaking.

Naruto's eyes turned a bright red.

"One of the rules is to never show your enemy the limits of your abilities unless you are sure they won't live long enough to take advantage of that information."

The demonic chakra from the Kyubi escaped the seal and began to spread around.

"Naruto?! What is happening?" Tsunade exclaimed.

"Let's move away," Gamabunta suggested. He did not want to get caught in the middle of whatever he was about to do.

"Kabuto!" Orochimaru screamed.

"Your time is up." As Naruto said this, five of the Kyubi's nine tails manifested behind him, and he was covered by a thick layer of red chakra that began to consume him.

Kabuto felt a cold shiver run down his back.

He knew better than to stay put. No matter how confident he had been about surviving anything Naruto could throw at him… this was not something he could have predicted.

A red circle surrounded him and Naruto.

"Flames of the Heavenly Furnace."
