Naruto: The Wind Calamity
chapter-84

After the Fire and the Winds died down, Hoka and Mieko flickered close to their opponents. The Kiri genins noticed, and got ready.

Fujin thought, 'This could be a long fight. Let's end this.' He instantly created 12 Wind Clones, who jumped into battle, while he stayed back, observing the fight.

As soon as Mieko appeared, Yumi rushed towards her and both began fighting with their kunai.

Kohaku used Stone Shuriken jutsu on Hoka. He dodged and blocked all of them, but was made to retreat once more with another Explosion tag.

Satoru was about to join the battle as well, however, he saw 12 clones coming and his expression became grim. He quickly made a hand seal and created 3 water clones.

He made a few more hand signs, 'Water Shuriken jutsu'

Soon, water shurikens flew towards the clones. However, they all dodged with ease.

3 clones moved towards the water clones. The water clones too moved against them. The Kiri genins were on alert, due to 9 additional clones heading towards them.

Satoru's water clones thought that the wind clones wanted to engage in hand-to-hand combat and were very confident. However, just before they reached them, all 3 clones suddenly used Wind Explosion jutsu. The jutsu was performed very quickly. The water clones couldn't defend themselves and were hit. All 3 were dispelled.

All the Wind clones suddenly flickered and surrounded Kohaku, who was already injured earlier. She was alarmed! So were her two teammates. Yumi tried going to help her but was blocked by Mieko. Satoru did move to aid her and used Water Shuriken jutsu on the clones.

All but one clone immediately launched Wind Explosion jutsu on her. The last clone used 'Breakthrough jutsu' on the incoming Water Shurikens.

Fujin saw from afar and thought, 'One down'. However, he was surprised! Kohaku made a hand sign, and disappeared underground!

Hoka, who was annoyed by Kohaku, immediately made his move. He slammed his hands on the ground, 'Rock Spear jutsu'

Soon, spears began forming underground and targeting Kohaku. However, she dodged them all underground and appeared a few dozen meters away. Her exit spot was close to Yumi.

As soon as she appeared, Fujin's clones launched another round of Wind Explosion jutsu on her.

However, she ignored them and slammed her hands on the ground. Stone Shurikens were immediately launched on Mieko. She moved back to defend herself.

Yumi thought, 'I need to be fast!' She rapidly made a hand seal, and a water wall formed in time to protect Kohaku.

Fujin, who was observing from a distance wondered, 'Are they really just genins?'

The clones were about to attack again, when Yumi shouted, "Retreat!"

Immediately both Satoru and Kohaku retreated along with Yumi. They retreated towards the tower. Mieko and Hoka immediately followed. So did Fujin and his clones.

The Konoha genins were faster and caught up several times. However, the Mist genins always managed to defend. After 4 minutes of chase, the Mist Genins had a lot of cuts on their bodies due to sharp winds, but none were lethal.

The Mist Genins were very worried. Yumi shouted internally, 'Why are these 10 year old brats from Konoha so strong? We have no chance of winning whatsoever! Also, why are they so bloodthirsty? All their attacks are aimed to kill or maim us!

These bloody Konoha hypocrites! They look down on us for being so bloodthirsty but train their own kids to be relentless killers. But, what should we do? We can't escape forever.'

She focused Chakra in her eyes, and looked around her, praying to find some hope. And she did! She noticed 3 chakra signatures heading rapidly towards them, which were about 400 meters to the north. She recognized them and instantly her spirits were lifted. She shouted, "Follow me!"

Both Satoru and Kohaku followed her lead. Fujin frowned, 'The other Kiri team is coming from that direction. If they team up, it'll be very difficult to win. That said, I don't understand one thing. How did that blue-eyed girl sense them? I didn't feel any chakra field. Is it her eyes that were glowing?'

Fujin created a Shadow clone, which followed the Wind clones.

Mieko and Hoka were still relentlessly chasing them. Fujin flickered next to them and shouted, "Wait, there's another Kiri team up ahead."

Mieko and Hoka became alert. But soon Mieko said arrogantly, "Let's keep attacking. We will beat both of them and knock them out." Hoka too supported her, "Yes, this is getting exciting, let's do it."

Fujin once again had a deadpan expression, 'These cocky brats!'

Seeing that Fujin wasn't replying, Mieko and Hoka turned and were about to chase. However, Fujin had enough of their antics.

Before either Hoka or Mieko could flicker, Fujin grabbed their shoulders. They both turned their heads and looked at him. Mieko asked, "What?"

Fujin didn't reply and just grinned, 'Wind Instantaneous Body jutsu'

Before either of them realized what was happening, Fujin dragged them both alongside him with Wind Instantaneous Body jutsu and entered the Tower, which was very close to their location.

Hoka and Mieko were both shocked when Fujin dragged them along with him. They wanted to stop him but couldn't do anything.

In an instant, they appeared inside the tower. Both were dumbfounded. Mieko then got very angry and shouted, "Why did you drag us here? It was just getting exciting!"

Fujin replied in an amused tone, "We couldn't defeat those 3. How were you planning to defeat 6?"

Mieko angrily replied, "They were just running away like rats! I just needed one look in their eyes, and they would have died."

Fujin smirked and replied, "Forget looking into their eyes, you didn't even manage to land a single wound on them."

Mieko was about to reply when she realized what Fujin said was true. All her attacks were blocked or dodged. She just snorted and said, "I'll remember this Fujin!" She walked away from him after saying that.

Fujin just shrugged and looked towards Hoka. He bitterly said, "I didn't get to fight anyone."

Fujin shrugged again and sighed, 'Why do I have to put up with these 2 arrogant brats? At least they were in control with Renjiro. Now they just want to fight without using their brains.'
