Chapter 80: CH 80
Naruto made seven kage bunshin and handed off kunai from his own pouch to them all. Three of the Kage Bunshin chucked the weapons at Samui, forcing her to dodge aside while the other four threw them at Karui, who took refuge in the hole with her sword in it. She smirked as she re-emerged, but the smirk died when she saw the sadistic one gracing Naruto's face.
Both girls saw him attempting a string of hand-signs. When Samui went to intercept him his clones cut her off at the pass and forced her to defend herself instead of her red-haired teammate. Meanwhile Naruto finished his hand-signs, "Raiton: Denkai (Lightning Release: Electric Field)! You're stuck!"
Karui tried to escape the electric prison and yelped as volts of electricity flew through her body when she touched the edge of the barrier. She looked over and saw Naruto's clones, who honestly couldn't engage Samui for long in direct combat, keeping her on her toes and preventing her from stopping Naruto, who had to remain stationary while holding the final hand-sign.
Naruto whistled sharply to Karui to get her attention away for attempts to escape, "I can make this jutsu much nastier with five more hand-signs. You should give up now before I decide to just use the branch techniques I have from here, this is checkmate for you."
Karui reluctantly conceded defeat and Naruto dropped the jutsu to allow her to go to the unconscious Omoi so they could leave the immediate area and allow Naruto to fight Samui alone. Naruto got back in his taijutsu stance and watched Samui do the same, "I could ask you to surrender now, but I won't. You know by now not to hold back on me, so I'll skip that part. Let's get right to the fighting shall we?"
"Raiton: Raikyu (Lightning Release: Lightning Ball)!" Samui quickly gathered lighting chakra in her hands and launched an electric orb at Naruto.
The defending blonde quickly made hand signs, held the last seal, and stomped his foot on the ground, "Fuuton: Fuugekitai Kabe (Wind Release: Wind Repel Wall)!" A spherical wave of wind came from Naruto's body in all directions, forcing Samui's jutsu to dissipate. Naruto came rushing in head on to attack her.
Samui drew her short blade once again, ready to test herself against the real Naruto this time. His rush was so basic she timed her first swing in conjuncture with the speed he was running at, timing it for just when he got into her range.
With a smirk on his face, Naruto pushed wind chakra from the front of his body to immediately halt himself just outside of the range of her longest swing. Stopping on a dime the way he did, it was too late for her as she had put everything into the one clean shot she thought she was going to get. This left her dangerously over-exposed and off balance, allowing her to disarm her and flip her to the ground.
