Naruto: Sasuke Reborn – No Clan Massacre! No Injustice！

Kisame is in the dense forest. The thick branches and leaves conceal his presence, blending him seamlessly with the surroundings. His eyes scan the area below.

"So, that's the legendary Copy Ninja, Kakashi. The Sharingan. I see."

One of Kakashi's eyes is covered by his Forehead Protector. Anyone who knows a little about him would know that the Sharingan lies beneath.

"Besides, I can't sense any powerful Chakra fluctuations from this guy."

Kisame gently pinches a twig with one hand, stating the fact in a calm tone and expression.

"Of course. Compared to Kisame Hoshigaki, the so - called Tailed - Beast - less Ninja, anyone's Chakra would be in short supply."

Tobi stands beside him, rubbing his hands back and forth. Even behind the mask, one can sense his obsequious expression.

"Really, I don't know how a guy like you got in. I have to team up with you, ugh!"

Kisame's eyelids twitch. He really can't stand this guy named Tobi. Although Tobi has no remarkable abilities, Pain was crazy about having him in the team and wouldn't listen to any persuasion.

"Come on, Senior Kisame. I've got my own good points."

"Hey~ Get out of my way. Don't get in the way of my attack."

As soon as he finishes speaking, Tobi instantly flashes more than ten meters away and stands there, cheering on like mad.

"Come on, Senior Kisame. I'll try my best not to be a burden to you."

Kisame can't help but think this guy is really good at running away.

Water Release: Water Shark Breakthrough

Kisame condenses Chakra to form a shark - shaped water bullet. It falls from a high place and attacks the rival at an extremely fast speed.

"Watch out!"

Feeling the sudden surge of Chakra, Kakashi stretches out his arm to protect everyone behind him.

Just as he was still hesitating how to deal with this Ninjutsu, Naruto rushed out before him.

A powerful Chakra cyclone condenses in his hand. Without any hesitation, he strikes the shark falling from the sky hard.

Rasengan

The shark is instantly dispersed by the Rasengan. Naruto calmly watches what's happening in front of him, his eyes looking around, searching for the possible hiding place of the rival in the dense forest.

Kisame's body involuntarily shrinks back as Naruto's sharp eyes sweep over him.

Kisame can't help but mutter to himself. What a perceptive kid.

"Naruto, be careful. The rival might be nearby."

"I know."

Since the rival doesn't show up for a long time, they must be planning to hide in the dense forest and drag out the time. They mustn't let such a despicable scheme succeed.

Naruto forms Hand Seal, closes his eyes slightly, and strange patterns appear on his face. Orange - yellow eye - shadow surrounds his eyes.

When he opens his eyes again, his pupils have changed. Looking at the unfamiliar Naruto, Kakashi can't help but let out an exclamation.

"This is, this is..."

"This is one of the results of my two - year cultivation, the Sage Mode. In this mode, my Sensor ability will increase exponentially."

Naruto concentrates on sensing the surrounding environment. His gaze pauses briefly and then looks in one direction. Then he dashes forward like a drawn sword.

"Sage Art: Big Ball Rasengan"

The bright blue Chakra instantly grew incredibly large in his hand, and he slammed it hard towards the direction of the rival.

Kisame was greatly shocked and his face showed surprise when he saw the huge Chakra sphere coming towards him.

The Chakra Reserves Amount of this Chakra was too terrifying. This brat just seemed to have more Chakra reserves than ordinary people, but was this too much now?

Thinking of this, Kisame no longer showed mercy. He put his hands together, took a deep breath suddenly, and his chest and cheeks puffed up high.

"Water Release: Exploding Water Colliding Wave"

The Chakra gathered in his throat was suddenly spat out on the ground, and the amount of water was enough to form a lake to counter the rival's terrifying Rasengan.

As a result of the fierce collision of the two energies, huge waves were stirred up, and this area was flattened.

During the confrontation of the two forces, Naruto in Sage Transformation still managed to gain the upper hand. He slammed the Big Ball Rasengan hard towards Kisame's body and watched him being knocked to the ground with his own eyes.

After the strong wind subsided, everyone stepped forward to check.

"Wait a minute. What do you want to do to Senior Kisame? You have to get past me first."

Facing Kisame who was unconscious on the ground, Tobi jumped out and protected him behind.

"Who the hell are you?"

Kakashi glanced at the person on the ground. This guy was an S-rank Rogue Ninja from Kiri. It was heard that he joined the Akatsuki Organization years ago.

But who was this guy wearing a mask in front of him? Why had he never heard a single piece of information about him?

"I... I'm a newbie, but I will never allow you to kill Senior Kisame."

Tobi trembled and stammered in response to Kakashi's words.

Kakashi was about to step forward when Naruto reached out to stop him.

"Teacher Kakashi, don't be deceived by them. Take a closer look. Their real bodies aren't here. They're just here to delay our time to rescue Gaara."

Sure enough, when Kakashi scanned Kisame's body again, his appearance had changed greatly.

"The guy standing in front of us is also a fake. Think carefully. We haven't reached our destination yet. Why did these guys send someone to stop us? It must be because the tailed beasts in Gaara's body haven't been completely absorbed. If we fight with these guys, we'll waste our own time."

"Naruto, but how do you know that?"

Looking at Naruto standing in front of him, mature and calm, he was no longer the brat who was deceived to pick up a Bell during the survival exercise.

Now Naruto already had the qualities of a leader. He stood high and observed the overall situation, calmly analyzing the rival's movements.

"What should we do now?"

"I guess their base camp must be not far from here. So they're anxious when they see us coming. For some unknown reason, they can't spare their real bodies, so they came up with this idea."

"Naruto..."

Kakashi and Sakura were a little surprised. When did this brat become so smart? What exactly happened during these two years of cultivation with Jiraiya?

"Why are you looking at me like this? Is there something wrong?"

Looking at the way the two were staring at him as if he were a monster, Naruto subconsciously shrank his neck. He had just analyzed the situation according to common sense. Why do they look like they've seen a ghost?

"Leave the rest to me. Teacher Kakashi, take Granny Chiyo and go ahead first."

"Okay, Naruto. Be careful by yourself!"

After saying so, Kakashi and the others didn't hesitate any longer. They trusted Naruto completely and turned around and ran away.

...

"Yo~ Masked Man, I think this is our third meeting. But still, let me say it's nice to see you again..."

Tobi looked at Naruto's expression and for some reason felt a chill run down his spine. Although the kid was smiling, his eyes were clearly full of disdain and a murderous look.
