Koushin: Konoha’s Dragonborn[Completed]

Extra Weekly Chapter!

--

Sand started to gush out from the gourd on Gaara’s back. It was floating on top of him. His bloodthirsty eyes were locked onto me. Ever since I confronted him just as they appeared in Konoha, he wanted to kill me. Kill me to prove his existence.

How fucking lame. How fucking idiot. I can’t stand these tragic past villains. I just can’t.

“Yuck!” I held my vomit in my throat.

“You okay, Koushin-kun?” Hayate asked.

“I am fine. Just thought something disgusting.” I answered with a smile while holding back the puke.

Gaara held his head in pain while smiling. “Don’t get so mad…” he muttered to no one. He kept on uttering nonsense while his eyes got bloodshot.

‘So this is the famous crazy talk. He is about to unleash the beast.’ I thought as I planned how I should proceed. I can kill him but it would make things worse. I don’t think unleashed Shukaku would do any good. I am still not sure if it's Rasa sitting there or Orochimaru.

If it's Rasa, we will have to battle two Kage-level enemies. If it's Orochimaru, Tsunade should be able to handle him, while others can deal with Shukaku.

But not killing him has its own advantages. He is a valuable ally in the future. After he is fixed by Naruto, he is not that of an edgelord. So, he is acceptable. But if Rasa is still alive, I doubt that Gaara will ever appear.

What to do, what to do…

Let’s keep him alive for now. I can’t risk Shukaku appearing without knowing the rest of the plan.

While I was plotting what to do, Gaara forced himself to calm down and looked at me with normal eyes. Relatively normal?

I pulled out four shurikens from my holster and threw them while I folded hand seals.

“Lightning Shuriken!” I shouted as four Shuriken tear through the air with blue lightning covering them. The sand in front of Gaara formed another Gaara and tried to hold the Shuriken in each interdigital fold. Sadly, the lightning element was countering his sand, and Shuriken pierced through the sand and moved towards his real body. But he was able to jump back quickly.

What? Oh, you want to say Gaara has the Magnet Bloodline Limit and it is not weak against lightning? Because the wind counters the lightning while the earth is weak against it? Well, the fuck I care. In the anime, Sasuke penetrated his ass with a simple Chidori, which means it is weak against lightning. If Gaara doesn’t want to be weak against lightning, he should do better and awaken the real Magnet Release, not the half one. Weak ass edge lord.

While Gaara was busy dodging, I dashed at him at a rapid speed. Now, I don’t like to brag, no really, I know I am one of a kind genius with great character. And I am handsome beyond belief. People would die to be in my place but could only wish, but I don’t like to boast at all, but my speed is nothing to scoff at. My raw speed, without Lightning Chakra Cloak or Lightning Flickering.

To Gaara’s dismay, I appeared behind him. His eyes lost focus, probably remembered something lame, but I am not merciful enough to wait for him to come back. I punched his face before his sand could protect him.

He started to fly in the air, but again, no waiting. I vanished and appeared above him, floating in the air. While his automatic defense was trailing behind us. I folded my two knees and landed on his gut, forcing him to spit his breath out. He looked lost, but that is what happens when you underestimate your opponents.

Before he could even gather his wits, I grabbed onto the belt of his gourd and pulled him towards myself. I punched his face one after the other. The punches landed on his face, disfiguring his already ugly mug. Oh right, those cracks were because of the sand armor on the body. Well, I ruined it now.

He lay on the ground lost, while the sand was moving towards him. He will cover himself with sand if I let the sand reach him. So I grabbed his listless body and threw him away from the sand. Lightning started to dance at the bottom of my feet, as I flickered towards his airborne body.

But he gained the gap to switch places with his sand, and when I arrived, he was among his sacred sand. Fuck!

He covered his body with round sand, and from outside nothing could be seen.

“You leave me no choice!” I shouted as I charged the chakra in my hand.

“Raiton: RasenDrill!”

Now, this was the first time I used this Jutsu in public. And saying it caused the audience to go nuts would be an understatement. They went viral. Cheerings, screams, and praises were drowning the arena. Why? Because it looked awesome. An ever-spinning drill made of Lightning Chakra. Imagine Chidori but spinning in my palm, and of course less loud.

I dashed at a wall of sand and stabbed my palm at it. The lightning drill made a hole and my arm arrived at his flesh, still cracking with lightning. Something warm started to cover my hand, while it felt wet and slimy at the same time.

His screams reverberated in the dome he was hiding in. He was going mental over the blood I shed. I wasn't an idiot and didn’t keep my arm in an unknown hole like some idiot. I removed it after I finished my attack, so I wasn’t stuck or anything and was a safe distance from it. Sigh, I hate following the plot, but I can’t kill him just yet.

I didn’t need a Sharingan to see the eye of the beast staring at me from the hole I created on the dome. It was the eye of the Shukaku, but in the next second, it vanished while Gaara came out of it while holding the right side of his chest, where I pierced him. Can’t risk killing him, so I went to the right side to be safe.

Around this time, the attack would start and Gaara would run away. I looked around and saw nothing, so it was time to finish this. I folded hand seals and created one of my favorite Jutsu.

“Raiton: Lightning Beast Tracking Fang”

Lightning in my hand pierced the ground and in the next second, dashed out just a step away from Gaara. The worm-like creature now looked even more defined. Fine scales were covering its body, and it had two fangs and two horns. It looked like an Eastern Dragon, but it wasn’t ugly. It was hansem.

The beast wrapped Gaara as he cried in shock. I dashed at him and slapped his neck. He fell down barely conscious. I couldn’t let him fall asleep. Can’t risk awakening the beast. Lucky for me, Hayate saw it was the end, and called the winner.

“The winner is Koushin of Konoha!” He declared and the audience went mad.

I looked at Kazekage and saw no reaction. He is probably Rasa. My idea was proven in the next second. Gaara jumped on his feet and looked ready to massacre the whole population of Konoha. His sand floated above him and was ready to attack me.

“Gaara!” Uttered Kazekage and the boy stopped. He looked at his father with fear and hate, then looked at me murderously before falling back.

“Phew, it is not what I was expecting.” I sighed and climbed to the wall towards the waiting area.

“Next battle, Shikamaru of Konoha, Temari of Suna! Come down to the stage.”

While I was looking around, Temari jumped down gracefully. Show off. While Shikamaru was pushed down by Naruto. The battle was a lot like in the Anime. I mean I wanted it to be the same. That is why in my last attack I made a hole in the ground. I wanted Shikamaru to become a Chunin. He needs responsibility, or he will never grow up.

After the first rounds ended, the second started. I was seriously getting baffled. What was Orochimaru plotting? He appeared in Forest of Death and his goal was Naruto. Kabuto was also here and he even met with Baki in the middle of the night. So, where was the promised attack? What is their angle?
