21 Heir Kazu of the Uzumaki clan (2/2)

To start the plan, he had two of the shadow clones out of the ground, one of them was immediately ambushed by Kazu, getting dispelled, but giving enough time for the second to get above ground and ready to perform its mission, getting into a taijutsu battle.

”You know, sending clones to play with me will not get you anywhere” With that, Kazu disappeared once more, this time showing up right in front of the clone, swinging the sword overhead, preparing for a downwards slice. The clone though, had already anticipated the attack, and had therefore already created a wall of chakra metal dust to deflect the incoming sword.

”Hou?, your little shield will not hold back this blade” When the sword hit the wall, it once again left behind some residue, this time creating a chakra sucking seal, which almost instantly made the wall fall apart into the dust it was mad of.

That however was a perfect opportunity for the clone, who used the substitution jutsu to switch places with some of the dust. This caused Kazu to raise an eyebrow in surprise, but he got over it quickly, and decided to kick the clone away before it could strike. 'Perfect' The clone had raised its hands, as if to block the kick, but before the clone was dispelled, it marked a familiar looking seal on the sole of Kazu's foot.

Gaining the memories from the clone, the original knew that the first phase of the plan was completed. 'The seal is in place, now it is time for phase two' The remaining clones as well as the original, promptly popped out of from the ground, with four of them in a square formation around Kazu. ”Blue four side barrier!” The clones, screaming out the name of the technique, which was a weaker version of the four red yang formation, successfully trapped Kazu with the original inside, and final clone outside.

'Now the fun begins, I'm glad Tobirama left a scroll of this in the Namikaze compound' Finishing the thought he and his clone both cast their jutsu. ”Bringer of darkness technique” ”Magnet release: Dust storm” This jutsu combination accomplished two things, taking away Kazu's vision with infinite darkness, and interfering with his sensing, due to the chakra infused in the dust.

This made both himself and Kazu functionally blind, since both techniques also affected the caster… But, because of the flying thunder god seal the clone placed on Kazu's foot earlier, he could still sense Kazu's location, thus giving him a significant advantage.

'I only have enough chakra left for one move, and my clones will only be able to keep the techniques running for another minute or so, as such, I must choose my next move wisely… Kazu is fast, so an area jutsu is the best choice, since I wouldn't be able to hit him otherwise, he can, after all, still sense the difference in chakra levels from the jutsu, and know where it is coming from… Oh, I got it… and the setup is already done' Smirking at his plan, he substituted with his clone outside the barrier, and took over controlling the dust storm.

Meanwhile the clone on the inside did the suicidal move, that was channeling the rest of its chakra into the dust storm and electrifying it with lightning chakra. While that was happening, the barrier clones continued channel more of their chakra to keep the barrier up, so Kazu was guaranteed to be hit… Soon thereafter the clones dispelled from having completely depleted their chakra, while the original fell to his knees in exhaustion, letting the dust storm die down.

'That should have got him, even with the remaining chakra from the first two clones, that still used too much chakra, I'm almost out…' ”Well, well, well, that certainly was an interesting idea, but now you are out of chakra, while I'm still completely fine”

From the dust storm, the figure of Kazu emerged wearing a full set of armor, obviously made with the adamantine sealing chains in a similar manner to the sword. He was adorning a smirk that would make the future Sasuke jealous, making it apparent, that he was completely unharmed.

'I'm already exhausted, but how can I let him win this easily, I didn't even scratch him…' As such, through sheer determination, he tried to stand up in order to keep on fighting. ”I don't think that's a good idea… now, go to sleep, you are too exhausted to continue with this fight” With that, Kazu formed the ram hand sign, which immediately activated a small ring of seals around Yoshio's hand, which made even more sleepy than he already was...

'How… when… oh, I see, he must have placed it at the same time as the weight seal… So, he was playing with me the entire time…' With those final thoughts, he fell straight asleep, falling to the ground, only to be caught by Daiki.

”You know, he is not even eight years old, that level of power is quite impressive for his age… it shows his potential is incredible… and it's not like he ever had a chance fighting the second strongest shinobi in Uzushiogakure, you know”

”Ha ha, father, I knew me and Kushi-chan had the: you know, from somewhere, seems you are the cause… Though I must say you are correct, his potential is incredible, and if he keeps training hard, I think he can become a suitable suitor for Kushi-chan”
