Naruto: The Gamer Hokage

Chapter 38: Zabuza Versus Naruto



Ding! Ding!

The clash between a massive sword and a kunai sparked light on every collision.

Zabuza was using his Executioner Blade to cut Naruto horizontally but Naruto pushed his hand to the side and blocked the sharp edge with his Kunai.

Zabuza's attack contained a lot of force, pushing Naruto away. He crashed onto the ground but didn't suffer any damage due to his Chakra Cloak.

He quickly got up and dashed toward Zabuza who was already preparing an attack. Zabuza came from above, pushing a large amount of force into his sword.

Naruto knew that the kunai wouldn't have enough strength to block it so he quickly gathered Kurama's chakra into two palms and used them to propel himself out of the sword's way.

He managed to dodge the attack and Zabuza found his sword stuck on the ground.

Before he could pull his sword, Naruto quickly started using hand seals.

[Wind Style- Great Breakthrough]

Combing his Chakra with Kurama's Chakra, he released a massive gust of wind from his mouth. It was so large Zabuza had no choice but to use Body Flicker to dodge it.

But, the force of that attack managed to break the sword out of the bridge and it fell into the sea.

"Damn it! Haku, get that sword!" Zabuza saw his sword falling into the sea and immediately shouted while preparing hand seals.

[Water Style- Water Bullet Technique]

He released a large burst of water through his mouth that came crashing toward Naruto. But, it made Naruto suspicious.

Sure, it was a powerful Jutsu but not in front of him. Without even using a Jutsu, he was able to deflect it with Kurama's Chakra Arm.

He saw Zabuza preparing another set of hand seals. Unlike the previous one, it had a lot of hand seals.

"Idiot! Do you think I would give you a chance to use that Jutsu?" Naruto sneered and quickly created a shadow clone.

He and the shadow clone began to make hand seals at the same time. Then, Naruto spit out a massive air bullet while his clone spit out a large fire bullet.

[Combination Style- Firestorm]

The fire and wind merged into one existence and created a massive stream of fire. It was so hot that it was turning water into vapor as it moved toward Zabuza.

"Zabuza-sama!" Haku shouted from afar.

"Tch!" Zabuza knew that he wouldn't get enough time to dodge it completely nor enough time to perform his Jutsu.

So, he jumped back while continuing his technique. The firestorm was still moving towards him and Zabuza finally jumped down from the bridge. The firestorm flew above him.

"Tch! He took advantage of the size of the bridge." Naruto gritted his teeth. Although the bridge was big, it wasn't big enough.

Because the fire didn't move fast like lightning or wind, it couldn't catch up to Zabuza who was already at the corner of the bridge.

Zabuza landed on the sea and from the sea, he finally finished his Jutsu.

[Water Style- Water Dragon Bullet Technique]

A large water dragon rose from the ground and rushed toward Naruto who was still in the bridge.

Naruto immediately made five hand seals and slammed his fist on his stomach.

[Wind Style- Drilling Air Bullet]

The wind coming out of his mouth was so massive it covered the entire water dragon when it collided against its head.

Air Bullet and Water Dragon collided causing water to fall all over the bridge.

"Damn! Thankfully, I learned this technique during my time in Waves. But, I need something more to defeat him." Naruto mumbled and started gathering Kurama's Chakra into his foot.

He rushed toward the edge of the bridge and jumped down. He landed on the water and stabilized himself.

"You sure are an idiot. Do you really think you can fight a Water Style Master in a sea?" Zabuza sneered as he started performing another set of hand seals.

"Do you really think someone like me would be an idiot?" Naruto immediately performed four hand seals and slammed his palm on the ground.

[Summoning Technique]

A large bird appeared under his foot.

"Nue, use your attack on the sea!" Naruto commanded and Nue followed without any issue. Its' large wings began to conjure purple lightning.

When he saw that lightning, Zabuza's eyes widened.

"Yo—— argh!"

The lightning passed through the sea and struck him. Although most of the lightning was dispersed into the sea, it was still enough to paralyze him.

"Zabuza, this is the end!"

[Combination Style- Drilling Firestorm]

Naruto released two massive fire bullets and wind bullets but unlike before, when they combined, they created a strange fire bullet that was massive in size.

Due to the effect of paralysis, Zabuza couldn't finish his hand seals and faced that massive firestorm head-on.

[Ice Release- Ice Dome]

Suddenly, a figure appeared in front of him and created a large dome of ice.

Boom!

Firestorm and ice dome collided, creating a large water vapor. It broke the Ice Dome and just before it could hit Haku, Zabuza pulled him into his embrace and turned around.

The firestorm had lost most of its power but it was still enough to burn his back.

"Zabuza-sama!" Haku screamed when he found himself inside Zabuza's arm. The entire back of Zabuza was burned due to his attack but he was still alive.

"It seems like you still have the heart, Zabuza. Well, anyway, now you can disappear from the world and rush back to Mist with that money." Naruto spoke and slowly retracted Kurama's Chakra.

He was only using Two Tails worth of Chakra but it was a massive boost in his ninjutsu and Taijutsu.

[Ding! You have finished a secret quest]

[You have defeated an A-Rank Ninja]

[Your rewards have been added to your inventory]

At first, Naruto was surprised by the panel. It had been quite a long time since he had seen one. But, he didn't care much.

Since the main role of this system was to boost his growth and it was doing that just fine.

"Nue, fly me to the bridge!" He sat down and spoke.

Nue flapped its wings and appeared on the bridge in an instant. Thankfully, it wasn't using lightning otherwise it would caused quite a lot of problems.

Naruto jumped down from Nue and patted its head.

"Thanks for the help, buddy! You can return now."

Nue let out a cry as it rubbed against Naruto's hand and disappeared with smoke.

"Naruto, you won!" Hinata was the first one to rush and engulf him in a hug. It caught him off guard but he didn't mind it.

Her developed body was rubbing against him and he was enjoying it quite well.

"Did you really doubt I will lose?" Naruto chuckled as he asked.

"No genin can win against an A-Rank ninja after graduation, Naruto." Kakashi answered for her as he walked forward.

"That was a very risky move but I'm glad it paid off well." Kurenai sighed a breath of relief as he spoke.

At this moment, Sasuke walked toward him and shouted.

"How? How did you get so powerful? You were a class loser. There is no way you can get this strong even with Kyubi. Tell me, how?"

His words suddenly changed the atmosphere. Naruto, Hinata, Shikamaru, and Kurenai narrowed their eyes. Kurenai didn't even hesitate to release her killing intent against him.

"Genin, don't raise your voice against my student! You have no right to ask him for anything."

"Man! Mah! Kurenai, there is no need to get personal. Sasuke is frustrated that Naruto has gotten so much stronger than him." Kakashi released his Killing Intent to offset hers as he tried to settle the situation.

Naruto looked at Sasuke for a moment and said.

"Do you know I have no reason to answer any of your questions?"

This immediately fumed Sasuke but Naruto continued.

"But, I will tell you the answer because I love to rub it in your face, Uchiha. I want you to realize why you a genius of the class were just as powerful as Genin after graduation."

His words immediately made Sasuke ugly while Kakashi frowned. He was glad that Naruto was going to reveal how he got stronger but he didn't like the way Naruto was putting it.

"Sasuke, I wasn't as much of a genius as you. No, my Chakra Control as garbage, and I had no form in Taijutsu. I couldn't even pull myself out of Genjutsu and knew only two of three academy Jutsu."

"But, I had potential and I found it when I learned Multi-shadow clone Jutsu. But, it wasn't the only thing that helped me improve. I learned Ninjutsu from others. I learned Taijutsu from Hinata."

"I learned Chakra Control from Kurenai Sensei. I learned how to use my head during a battle from Shikamaru. This is the difference between you and me, Sasuke."

"You had Hatake Kakashi, the strongest Jonin in the village together with Might Guy. You had Kiba who was the perfect training partner in Taijutsu. You had Sakura who has perfect Chakra control."

"But, what did you really do?"
