“What?” Mizuki frowned.
“I said, you lie,” Naruto repeated louder, raising his head, and glaring at Mizuki. “I may not know weather or not you’re telling the truth about the Kyuubi, but that thing about Iruka hating me is bullshit. I know that he hated me at first, but after a while we began to understand each other. We created a bond close to that of a father and child, or even brothers. I don’t care what you say about me, but I will NOT have you saying lies about my most precious person!”
Naruto put his hands into the sign needed for his newest attack. “Let’s see how you handle this! Kage Bunshin no Jutsu!”
Within a matter of seconds, Naruto split into 100 more copies of himself! Mizuki and Iruka were shocked.
“N-Naruto! How did you…?” Iruka stammered.
“How do you like it, Iruka-sensei? While waiting for Mizuki-teme, I decided to learn a new technique from the scroll! Now he doesn’t stand a chance!” Naruto said, smiling at Iruka.
“I beg to differ!” Mizuki shouted. “Even with all these clones, you are just a lowly dead-last, and I am an elite Chuunin! Plus, I have THIS!”
Mizuki pulled out a small vial of liquid, popped open the top, and drank it all in one gulp. Soon after, he clutched at his throat, and dropped to his knees.
“What the… Mizuki!” Iruka shouted out.
“What did he just drink?-!” Naruto shouted out, his clones getting ready for any attack.
“Ku Ku Ku Ku… yes… I can feel it… the power… the power…” Mizuki rasped out, standing up while still holding his throat. “Such… exquisite power… and this power…this gift… it’s mine… ALL MINE!-!-!-!”
Mizuki threw his arms out to the side, roaring as the power continued to consume him. Soon, his body began to grow, his arms, legs and torso becoming so muscular that they ripped through his shirt and pants.
But it didn’t stop there.
He also began to grow FUR, fur similar to that of a tiger’s. Orange and black striped fur.
By the time the transformation was complete, Mizuki looked like a VERY buff humanoid tiger.
Naruto and Iruka were speechless, with both awe and horror.
“Ah…so this is the gift that Orochimaru-sama has given me… how thoughtful of him. Ku Ku Ku Ku…” Mizuki chuckled darkly, his voice much deeper and feral sounding. He turned his attention back to Naruto (his 100 clones) and Iruka. “Well then, let’s get started, shall we Kyuubi-brat?”
“What…what power… my skin is tingling…” Iruka said in awe “We’re in big trouble, Naruto…”
“Don’t worry, Iruka-sensei. I’ll make sure nothing happens to you,” Naruto reassured.
Just as he said that, two of the clones jumped down and gently grabbed Iruka, lifting him up on their shoulders, and getting ready to jump off with him.
“Naruto!” Iruka said, making Naruto turn towards him. “…Be careful.”
“…I will.” Naruto replied, nodding towards Iruka. And with that, Iruka and the two clones made their escape.
“Ku Ku Ku… how noble of you… trying to save your so-called ‘father figure’… not that it matters anyway. After I finish you off, he’s next,” Mizuki chuckled.
“I don’t think so, stripey!” Naruto retorted. “You won’t lay a finger on Iruka-sensei as long as I’m around. And if you think that I’m going to die before I become Hokage, then you’ve got another thing coming! Let’s go! CHARGE!”
All of Naruto’s remaining clones jumped towards the transformed Mizuki.
“Feh… this shouldn’t take long…” Mizuki said, ready to end the Kyuubi Brat’s life once and for all.
