Chapter 10: Chapter 09
"That's not going to happen," declared a feminine voice. Realizing he wasn't alone, the missing-nin looked around and shouted, "Who's there? Show yourself!"
As if on cue, Tsunade leaped from the tree she was on and landed down on the ground facing her enemy. Her beauty and current appearance however was anything but what the kidnapper was expecting. Seeing that she was barefooted and barely had anything on besides her sleeping kimono and what little fabric was underneath it with the wind blowing the kimono, the missing-nin fought hard to maintain his composure and not suffer from a massive nosebleed. Upon seeing her face, the kidnapper recognized who the blond beauty was.
"Senju Tsunade," he said, "One of the legendary Sannins. Didn't expect to find you out here on this night barely dressed. I didn't know you were that type of kunoichi."
"Shut up," Tsunade retorted angrily, "You're the one who broke into my hotel room."
"I did," he admitted, "Tell me though, how did you know I broke into your apartment?"
"You left traces of your intrusion," she replied, showing him a crumbled piece of paper, "A list of clans, villages and organizations."
The missing-nin cursed under his breath and answered, "Originally, after I found out about you returning to Konoha, I was going to attack and kidnap you while you slept, and sell your body to the highest bidder. However after overhearing the conversation between you and that little girl concerning Yondaime and his son, I saw that kidnapping and selling the child instead would bring me more money than any Sannin's body could."
"Bastard," Tsunade retorted as she got in her fighting stance, "You will not leave this land with the child!"
"Oh," replied the missing-nin, "And you intend to stop me I presume. Alright then, I'll take you out and sell both you and the child!"
Performing some hand seals, the missing-nin said, "Kara No Tsuyosa No Jutsu."
Tsunade at that moment felt as though something was torn out of her as she fell to the ground on her knees and left hand while holding onto her chest with her right hand. She was breathing hard and felt unexplainably weak throughout her body.
"W…What did you do…to me…," Tsunade growled as she forced herself up with the remaining strength she had left. Smiling sinisterly, the missing-nin relied, "I took away your super strength. I'd be a fool to think I could directly engage you in combat and think I would come out as the victor while you're in your prime. All I had to do was spike your tea earlier with an elixir of my own creation and wait for the elixir to saturate into your body. It also neutralizes your chakra, preventing you from performing ninjutsu and genjutsu. Like I said earlier, my original intentions was to attack and kidnap you while you slept after I activated the poison."
"Damn you," Tsunade cursed, "No matter! I'll protect Naruto! You wanna get this fight started or should I go first?"
The missing-nin smirked at her pulled out and placed on a claw gauntlet with long razor sharp steel blades over his right hand. The missing-nin stated, "Since you insist on fighting…"
The missing-nin charged at Tsunade thrusting his right hand at her. Tsunade dodged the attack swiftly as he continued slashing at her. After a couple of minutes, Tsunade soon took the initiative and went after him. Before the eissing-nin took to flight, Tsunade struck him, sending him pummeling across the ground.
He ain't so tough, Tsunade thought confidently. The missing-nin got up off the ground and looked over at his opponent, seeing that she was in a ready to fight stance with her fists out ready to pummel him all over.
Charging forward, the missing-nin yelled and rushed over to Tsunade who was awaiting his arrival. Upon arriving, Tsunade jumped to the air and flipped behind the criminal shinobi. The missing-nin turned in time to see Tsunade punch him square in the face, knocking him down and away from her again.
"Did you really thought you had a chance against a Sannin like me?"
The missing-nin gave a sinister laugh as he stood back up again and said, "Well if you want the answer that badly, I'm afraid that your only way to get it is to try to beat it out of me, if you can!"
"Have it your way!"
The Tsunade charged at missing-nin as he stood there waiting for her. Tsunade geared her fist out to strike the kidnapper. The missing-nin however stepped to the side as Tsunade's fist missed its target. The criminal shinobi jumped to the side as Tsunade turned to face him. She was clearly able to feel her remaining strength leaving her body as a result of the elixir absorbed into her body. Still, she had to fight on, not for her sake, but for Naruto's.
Resorting to taijutsu, Tsunade charged at the missing-nin ready to throw her hurricane of punches and kicks. The missing-nin however dodged and evaded every last one of her attacks as she just kept coming. The female Sannin pressed on as she tried to land a blow on him but he just was too fast for her a result of the poison and jutsu he used on her. The kidnapper leaped from her then dashed speedily passed her before her eyes could catch sight of him.
"What the...?"
"Here I am," shouted the missing-nin. Charging like an uncontrollable bull, the missing-nin rushed at Tsunade and rammed right into her, thrusting her off the ground and flying some distance away till she collided straight into a tree, hard, with a solid thud. Tsunade, struggled to get back up after feeling the brute impact from the last attack. Her body was in pain all over.
Tsunade said weakly, "W...What the...hell was that?...It felt like I was punched by a summoning beast."
The missing-nin was standing where he was looking at the female shinobi struggling to regain some of her strength.
"What's the matter," he taunted, "Did I slap you that badly?"
Tsunade hissed at him.
"Oooooh...You still have some fight left in you. I'll remedy that."
Tsunade charged at the him again. Punch after punch, kick after kick, Tsunade kept trying to land a blow on him, but she was unsuccessful as the jutsu as still depleting her stamina. Missing-nin blocked and evaded all her attacks. Pulling away, Tsunade took a moment to catch her breath as the missing-nin stood where he was looking at her with a mocking expression.
"Is that all you got," he sneered, "If you're through catching your breath, I think it's now my turn to come for you!"
The missing-nin rushed at Tsunade and started his assault on her. Tsunade did all she could to block and evade as many of his attacks as she could. However, it was hard for her to keep up as a number of his punches and kicks found their way to strike her. Tsunade was now on the receiving end of all his swift and highly fast punches and slashes with his claw gauntlet as he just kept coming. She screamed every time from the tremendous pain and damages the steel claws inflicted on her.
The missing-nin then delivered a round kick at her sending her off the ground away from him. Tsunade stumbled and rolled on the ground still she eventually stopped. She was now in more pain than she was earlier. Her slender and silky body was covered in dirt and dry mud and she had multiple bruises and slashes around her face and body. She was bleeding all over and her sleeping kimono was torn all over and stained in her blood.
"It's a pity that I had to tear apart and desecrate such beauty," the missing-nin remarked. Tsunade, although in a great deal of pain, struggled to get back up to face her enemy. It was a while but she managed to stand back up again.
"Ready for more," the missing-nin mocked.
"You're dead," Tsunade snarled.
"You first."
With the remaining strength she had left, Tsunade ran to the missing-nin and started fighting with him again, trying throw as many punches at him as she could. But to no avail, she was unable to hit him once as he kept dodging all her punches. The missing-nin then punched her away as she fell to the ground. He then yelled and dashed toward her with intent on hurting her more. Tsunade saw him leap and flip to the air before suddenly he cast his feet down in a landing position to land on top of her feet first.
