Chapter 118: CH 118
Sai placed his brush in his fingers, "There is no such thing as being paranoid to a shinobi Naruto-senpai."
"Right..." He placed his hands in a ram seal, "You ready?" Sai looked unsure of Naruto's actions but nodded. Naruto took a deep breath, "Okay, let the sparks fly!" He channeled his chakra into a hard outward pulse. At first nothing happened, but the sound of stone sliding against stone started ringing out. Sai's eyes widened as the statue began to move slowly from its position, "I knew that was going to happen. What exactly was your plan?"
Naruto shrugged and drew his sword, "I don't know, I was winging it, I cannot be held responsible for the things that I do in the heat of battle. Did you have any better ideas?"
Sai sighed, "We weren't even fighting when you came up with that asinine idea."
Naruto rolled his eyes, "Oh I'm sorry, you probably had a much better idea huh. Yeah your idea probably would have made my idea look stupid right? Shut up and fight or get squashed kouhai!" The two were forced to dodge as the statue lowered a massive foot on their previous position.
The guardian statue turned its head towards them with an audible sliding noise as the stone slabs comprising its body parts rubbed against themselves. Sai and Naruto looked at each other before Naruto nodded and rushed in with his sword, charging it with wind chakra to cleave the golem's head off. Sai stayed back and began drawing on his scroll, "Choujuu Giga (Super Beasts Imitation Picture)."
Lions of ink emerged from Sai's scroll and began stalking the statue down. The statue simply looked at them and destroyed them with a swing of its hand. Naruto sweatdropped at the display, "Sai! Ink won't hurt the damn thing! You've got to have another jutsu you can do right?"
Sai shrugged and pointed at the statue that had targeted Naruto, it was now gearing up to swing on him. Naruto cursed and dodged as the massive fist hit the ground and shook the building. Naruto jumped at the statue's head with wind chakra circulating around his sword, however when he made contact with the statue's neck a seal array appeared on the area that he made contact with and repelled him violently. Naruto bounced across the ground and stood up with his head swimming, "Damn it! The statue has the same seal on it that the walls do! It will just absorb any of the jutsu that we launch at it! Please tell me you have something that can break stone!"
Sai shook his head and Naruto once again cursed... and dodged another fisticuff from the statue, "Damn it Sai! Some back-up would be nice at the very least!" Sai shrugged again and pointed again as Naruto heard stone sliding once more. Naruto turned, "Fuck!" The statue actually had a fully functional stone sword on its back that it had just unsheathed. Naruto reached into his pack and pulled out a roll of explosive notes that he chucked over to Sai.
The pale ninja snatched them up out of mid-air and took one that he wrapped in a kunai and threw at the statue. It simply bounced off with the explosion being set off in its face.
