Renjiro Vs Tomio & Chunins

While his students were engaged in combat, Renjiro himself was fighting against the main enemy combatants. Just like Masato, Renjiro too was restricted here due to not being able to use the majority of his Earth jutsus.

Renjiro observed his opponents, '1 jounin and 5 chunins. Been a while since I had to fight against these odds. I wonder if they can put up a fight though.'

His opponents too observed him. They were very tense. Tomio thought, 'He specializes in Earth and Water jutsus. This terrain should void most of his Earth jutsus. And I can cancel out his Water jutsus. And he won't retreat due to his students, and might even be distracted by them. We have a chance!'

After concluding his thoughts, Renjiro threw 6 shurikens at his opponents. Immediately, he made a couple of hand signs.

'Shuriken Shadow Clone jutsu'

The enemy ninjas were amused when they saw that only 6 shurikens were thrown at them. But seeing them suddenly increase to over a hundred freaked them. Tomio once again used Water Wall jutsu to block the shurikens.

Renjiro smirked. He was aiming exactly for this. While the water wall protected them, it meant that they couldn't see Renjiro. He grabbed his sword and rushed towards them.

Unfortunately, one of them was a sensor and he yelled, "He's running toward us!" He was the same ninja who had earlier detected Fire-Wind Dragon jutsu. The shout put them on guard and they prepared for a fight.

The very instant the water wall collapsed, Renjiro flickered and appeared behind the chunin who shouted. Before anyone could react, he attacked him with his sword, aiming to cut him in two. Knowing that he couldn't move fast enough, he made a hand sign. Renjiro ended up cutting a log of wood.

The enemy ninjas sighed in relief and immediately moved toward Renjiro to attack him right when they saw the sensor use Substitution jutsu. However, Renjiro still smirked.

Though Renjiro's sword cut through a log of wood, his sword emitted chakra that travelled in the form of a slash. It was the Samurai Saber Technique. Though it didn't have the lethal wind chakra that Fujin's slashes had, it was still very lethal.

Wagarashi Tomio was the one to notice it and he quickly shouted, "Careful!" and moved out of the way of that flying slash.

That alerted all 4 chunins. 3 of them jumped out of the way successfully. However, the last one was the closest to Renjiro. He too tried jumping but was too slow. The slash hit his knees and slashed halfway through his kneecaps. He collapsed and began yelling in pain.

All of the 5 enemies were now at least a few dozen meters from Renjiro. So he just stepped forward and beheaded the injured ninja.

He looked at the Tea ninjas and coolly said, "Just 5 more to go." That statement put a lot of pressure on them.

Tomio understood that Renjiro was trying to crush their morale. He shouted, "Behind me" while retreating away from Renjiro and making a few hand signs. The remaining chunins quickly moved behind Tomio.

'Water Dragon jutsu'

Renjiro noticed the hand signs Tomio was making and recognized them. He just waited for him to be done with it. Soon, Tomio expended quite a bit of his chakra to launch Water Dragon jutsu on Renjiro.

However, Renjiro just flickered a few times, completely avoiding the trajectory of the jutsu while muttering, 'What a waste of chakra.'

In an instant, Renjiro was now behind those ninjas, while the Water Dragon jutsu hit nothing but debris.

Renjiro wanted to attack them from behind, but the enemy ninjas had got a hang of Renjiro's fast-paced attacks. The very moment that Renjiro appeared behind them, all 3 of them made hand signs and launched their jutsus.

The story has been illicitly taken; should you find it on Amazon, report the infringement.

'Water Shuriken jutsu'

'Great Breakthrough jutsu'

'Flamethrower jutsu'

The 3 jutsus were released in that order. First, Water Shurikens were launched. They were then aided by Great Breakthrough jutsu to speed up to nearly twice their initial speed. And then, Flamethrower was released into the Great Breakthrough jutsu, making it very devastating!

Renjiro was very surprised, 'Good teamwork!'

However, he just flickered again, resulting in another fire being started. Seeing Renjiro flickering, Tomio made a hand sign.

'Water bullet jutsu'

He began shooting water bullets wherever Renjiro appeared. However, Renjiro dodged them all with ease, while occasionally sending a flying slash their way. This stalemate continued for a couple of minutes.

Tomio wondered, 'Why isn't he worried about the kids?' He tried observing the genins through the corner of his eye, and was shocked! That fight only had Masato still alive, and all 3 Genins were ganging up on him. His expression became very grim.

By now, 3 fires were burning in the destroyed part of the forest. A lot of smoke covered the area, and visibility was becoming very low.

The remaining 40 bandits were initially confused about what exactly was happening. However, hearing the blasts made them realize that this was the battlefield of ninjas. They too noticed the smoke rising from where the fighting was happening and all ran away in fear.

Tomio and the 4 chunins with him were breathing heavily. The short exchange made them spend a lot of their chakra. Renjiro, on the other hand, seemed like he had just warmed up.

Noticing that they were tired and Tomio was checking out the other fight, Renjiro stabbed the logs under him with his swords and made a hand sign. This instantly got all 5 enemies on full alert.

In an instant, Renjiro built up a massive amount of chakra and launched his jutsu.

'Waterfall jutsu!'

Tomio immediately made hand signs to create another water wall. However, he was shocked by the sight in front of him. Renjiro spat out a massive amount of water. They felt, 'It's as if a Tsunami is crashing down on us!'

Tomio and another chunin made a couple of water walls. However, it wasn't enough. The Waterfall washed all 5 of them away. It also washed out the debris under them and doused one of the 3 fires that were burning.

All 5 of them got washed out in the open fields where the Merchants and one of Renjiro's clones were.

Seeing that they were finally on the ground, Renjiro smirked. All 5 of them suffered some injuries after getting hit by such a huge move. They struggled to get up. Tomio was the first one to recover. He barely managed to get up on his knees while breathing very heavily.

However, soon he noticed something that horrified him! They were on the ground. He had just one thought before he jumped up as quickly as he could, 'CRAP!'

As soon as he jumped, Earth spears appeared from the ground. All 4 chunins were stabbed. Only Tomio managed to get away. Soon, more spears appeared from the ground, and pierced all 4 of them, until Renjiro was sure that they were dead.

Wagarashi Tomio saw all his 4 underlings being killed. He noticed that all other fighting had stopped too. He was horrified and began running towards the Land of Tea in panic. However, Renjiro flickered in front of him, with a sword in his right hand.

The genins had finished Masato off right after Renjiro used the huge jutsu and were observing the fight.

Renjiro looked at Tomio and said, "You know, I'm very surprised that you guys chose to fight us in the Land of Fire, rather than the Land of Tea. If you had fought in the Land of Tea, at the very least, you'd have managed to retreat. But here, all 5 of your forces will be eliminated."

Tomio looked at Renjiro in terror and asked, "Has Konoha already recovered from the losses of the 3rd Great Ninja war and Kyubi's attack?"

Renjiro replied, "Not really. But Konoha isn't something the likes of you can challenge."

He then charged straight at Tomio. Tomio grabbed a kunai and prepared to fight, however, in merely 1 attack, Renjiro sliced his head off!

Fujin, Mieko, and Hoka saw this sight. In one fluid motion, Renjiro sliced his enemy's head off and sheathed his sword, as if he had done something insignificant.

Hoka saw it and commented, "That was cool."

Mieko snorted and said, "He's just showing off!"

Fujin nodded, agreeing with Mieko.

Renjiro looked at his 3 students, who flickered next to him in response. He said, "Good work. Analyze your battle properly. I'll ask for your analysis later."

The trio nodded. Fujin asked, "Sensei, will we be doing something about the bandits that ran away?"

Renjiro looked at his clones. Both of them flickered toward the bandits. He replied, "Leave them to my clones. While we did win, I won't be surprised if they have someone hidden trying to take advantage of us when we put our guard down. A good number of dead ninjas during peacetime die only due to letting their guard down for a moment."

The trio nodded in response, absorbing their sensei's experiences and knowledge.

[A/N : Battles are hard to write... Especially when you consider jutsus like Body Flicker and Substitution. Anyways, the first actual fight that I wrote. Lemme know your thoughts.]

Hey guys. Really wanted to thank everyone for their support after resuming this fanfic. Especially the Patreons. I didn't think I'd receive this level of support back when I decided to restart writing. It has been very motivating.

Thank You :-)
