Chapter 73 - The next challenge (1/2)

A sleepless night.

It would be worth it though, seeing as he had to get Momo off this island as soon as possible. To do that, he would have to finish the mission, as much of it as he could, by himself and think up a plan to get off the island. He was going to be tired in the morning, but it was far more than worth it. Naruto looked at all of the documents that he had been able to take from the records, there were so many records of their illegal activities. Not like normal records, these records were testing data, data that was being used to record the progress of their illegal experimentation.

The Seed Bed.

It would seem that Kaguya was doing some independent actions, she planned on creating cloned children using her students, once they had reached the peak of their powers. She would then strategically place those children in orphanages across the world. Each child was going to be cloned and modified, so that inside each of their ċhėsts they would hold a chemical weapon that would explode and infect entire cities. The chemical weapon containing Kaguya's own DNA in it, and with her DNA all over the world, she would be in direct contact with everyone on the planet. She would be able to use her Quirk to rapidly absorb all of the energy from everyone, thus forcing the world's population to give in to her greatest wishes in order to survive another day.

”She's a sick fuċk... she's choosing to clone girls who are good looking, and with good Quirks, so that they are more likely to get adopted. Every student at this school thinks they are joining her army... but they are just pigs to the slaughter...” Naruto whispered to himself as he read over the documents. Reading these, he knew that this was the evidence that they needed to end the school, and put Kaguya away for the rest of her life. There was no way that any country would be able to ignore this, nor ignore the fact that Kaguya had already hacked into their citizen registry and created hundreds of false identities for her Clone Bombs. ”... No... she has a back up site... if something happens to this school, she's going to escape to site B.” Naruto read further into the file.

She had back up plans, and some of the information on the file was missing as well.

”So, it seems like there is a rat among us, time to exterminate.”

Naruto grinned, and turned his head to see the true Kaguya standing behind him. His Hoshi no Tama was resting safely between Momo's sleeping brėȧsts, so Kaguya wasn't going to be able to steal that from him. Naruto turned around and faced her, before he put the file safely away under his shirt. The woman looked surprised that he was here, but the fact that all of her guards in the room were knocked out, showed her that her opponent was a skilled fighter, or a stealthy one. Naruto raised his fists up, and prepared for a fight.

”Come at me you pasty bitch.” Naruto spat at her.

Her literally spat in her face when he said it, ending his sentence by giving her face a new coating of saliva. A vein bulged on her forehead, and he saw the signs of her Quirk activating, her horns glowing and the third eye on her forehead opening up.

”I'll drain your energy completely.”

Naruto threw a punch at her, and she reached out with a surprisingly long reach, and grabbed his shoulder. Their battle started in an instant, and Kaguya felt a rush of potent life energy rush out of Naruto's body and into her own through her horns. Then, Naruto's punch connected with her face, and sent her flying backyards, though she landed on his feet. He was already running towards her, and she kicked him in the face as he let loose a powerful punch to her stomach.

”Try it, take as much as you think you can.” Naruto sent her flying again, another chunk of his energy was gone. She slammed into the wall, bleeding from her split lip, but she wiped it away.

She sent him a gleeful look.

”You... you... your energy is absolutely massive... I've been stealing energy for over 160 years now... I'm going to suck you dry.” Kaguya couldn't believe it. Even the girl from earlier, Naruko, couldn't even begin to compete with the amount of energy this boy had. This boy had enough energy in his body, through both being naturally gifted, and no doubt a life time of impossible levels of training, that he was like an ocean of power waiting to be drained.

She was going to suck him until he was a husk, all of that energy, if she added it to her own... no... he had so much energy, that if she suċkėd it all, she could gain his Quirk forever. She could become a deity with all of his power.

She could use it better than him anyway.

Kaguya's body started to glow blue, and she started to cover her body in years of stolen energy.

”I have a girlfriend, and she's been trying to do that for weeks now... get in line.” Naruto stated, and he blocked a punch from her.

She drained more of his energy.

”No... I should let you live... you'll become a great battery for me... so be a good boy and SIT!” Kaguya shouted as she traded blows with Naruto. Increasing her strength beyond human levels with her stolen power. She looked at Naruto, expecting him to get sent flying by her might.

He tanked her attack, and headbutt her in the nose, pushing her back so that the two of them could punch each other in the faces.

”Take all the energy you want, but you won't put me down. I'm going to be All Right, and you can't change that.” Naruto could feel power getting drained from his body. Through sheer willpower, he kept going forward. Every time his fists hit her, he had energy drained from him. Whenever she hit him, even more energy was pulled out of his body.

Several Kaguya guards entered the room.

”Master!”

”There, more power!” Kaguya's clones... they turned into raw energy and entered Kaguya's body. The glow around her body became brighter, and Naruto felt her energy absorption get stronger as well.

That didn't matter.

They continued to trade blows, faster and faster, her enhanced power slowly starting to match his own strength. Naruto took a hit to the nose that broke it, and pushed him back. Slowly, his attacks were no longer hitting her either, as her third eye started to move and track his movements.

'... I'm starting to understand... to steal energy, she needs that third eye open... her horns are the conduit for stolen energy, and her DNA is the vessel. Whatever energy she steals, she can use to enhance herself... the longer I fight her, the stronger she gets.' Naruto thought as he wiped his bloody nose and took a brief. He noticed something else.

Kaguya's injuries were vanishing as well, the glowing energy healing the injuries that he was giving her.

”My Quirk has granted me immortality, and I'm unmatched in physical combat. Just allow yourself to slip into an infinite dream. Defeating me is impossible.” Kaguya taunted him when her injuries were finished healing.

Naruto smirked.

Impossible.
