Chapter 17: CH 17
Kabuto chuckled, "Try to keep me away then Naruto-kun." Kabuto rushed back in and engaged Naruto close-up once more. Naruto ducked out of the way of Kabuto's attack, choosing to slip under and around his punches rather than block, lest his muscle tendons and other internal things in his arms be cut. He also had to watch it when he threw a punch or kick of his own to make sure that Kabuto didn't cut anything by simply blocking or parrying his moves.
Naruto dodged even more of Kabuto's potentially fatal strikes, grunting in effort, "You're really annoying to fight. You're really fast, even for a medic-nin."
Kabuto's confident smirk returned, "Like I said Naruto-kun, you're all talk. You're not on my level." Kabuto overextended on one of his attacks and allowed Naruto to spring out of close-range.
Naruto immediately began tossing out kunai at Kabuto who dodged deftly and chuckled, "Simple kunai Naruto-kun? That honestly can't be your best."
Naruto rolled his eyes, "There you go again, with that superiority thing of yours... Why are bad guys such douche bags?" Naruto rolled through a series of hand-signs, "Raiton: Denkai (Lightning Release: Electric Field)!"
Kabuto sat in place as he felt and saw nothing. Naruto simply stood in place, staring at Kabuto with cold blue eyes that seemed to analyze his every movement. Kabuto simply strolled forward, "You must not have that jutsu down quite yet Naruto-kun. Don't worry, I mean you are still just a genin after all."
Naruto's eyes showed no indication that he had even acknowledged Kabuto's words. Kabuto shrugged and strolled forward, reactivating his chakra scalpels once more, until a sharp jolt of electricity thrusted him backwards, "What is this?"
"Didn't you hear me call out the jutsu?" Naruto kept his gaze on Kabuto only this time he had a smirk on his face, "You didn't really think that I was that bad at using kunai did you?"
Kabuto turned to see a small spark of electricity coming from one of the kunai. He then noticed that the weapons Naruto had thrown were strewn about in a rough circle around him, "A barrier jutsu? I really have been underestimating you."
Naruto made more hand-signs, "I'm not done yet. From here I can branch off into tons of stuff, just watch. Raiton: Denki Meihemu (Lightning Release: Electric Mayhem)!"
