    Naruto Rise of the shadow village
    (Prequel) Chapter3-the fight continues

    inside the chaos that was once KonohaGakure Tsunade continued the fight against the sound Jounin. Emitted around her was a shield like aura along with surrounding debris of stones hovering around her. The massive airborne boulders acted like a shield for her and her allies moving in the way of incoming projectiles or even launching themselves at incoming enemy shinobi.

    This held the sound ninja at bay, but where adapting to her strategies fairly quickly. “Incoming!!” Tsunade turned too see a large burning projectile moving at intense speed toward them. Tsunade quickly clenched her fist and moved them in front of her as she did two large boulders moved in the way of the coming blast and it harmlessly bounced off the rocks. Then from behind the boulder a young sound shinobi took his chance at the shields sudden weakness, and jumped throw a large barrage of stones. Kakashi reacted quickly with a thrown kunai that penetrated the shinobi’s chest. The body was revealed to be a clone and it disappeared in a poof of smoke. Taking advantage of the decoy six more clones jumped out of the ground towards the Hokage.

    They were quickly met by 3 anbu members who made quick work of them. Then finally the real body of the sound Nin appeared behind Tsunade taking her by surprise. Too late for anybody too react. The young shinobi sent a sword towards Tsunade’s chest. Kakashi’s eyes widened as he ran after them, but he stopped short of reaching them. Tsunade surprisingly disappeared as soon as the katana made contact. She reappeared behind her allies eyes still closed focusing on keeping the hovering boulders around them airborne. The young enemy shinobi still recovering from confusion did not notice a large boulder flying at him from behind until it was too late.

    While this happened two figures watched Tsunade from high above the battle ground. “Tsunade is as powerful as ever Orochimaru” Kabuto said readjusting his glasses the light making the glasses look like mirrors. Inside the glasses reflected Tsunade using the boulders to slam and crush shinobi dumb enough to get 10 feet within her range.

    ”Yes powerful indeed and not too be underestimated like she was before” Orochimaru responded staring curiously as Tsunade cut down his soldiers one by one. A grin was on his face, lost in thought while looking at the fifth hokage. His thoughts were cut off when a sound ninja scout flickered in front of them. “Lord Orochimaru we have taken the east and southern most part of the village but have met a lot of resistance near the leaf ninja academy. We have also managed too drive off outside reinforcements.” The ninja let a grin appear on his face as he looked up at his leader “the Hokage is alone in this fight.”

    Orochimaru smiled as the Jounin gave him the report “Good. I will take care of my dear old friend personally.” He turned too look Kabuto in the eye “you will handle the rest of the objectives and Kabuto I do not look kindly on failure. You will send for me when you have secured the vessel,” and with that He jumped off the tower.

    On the ground Tsunade was on the offensive, her boulder shield all but destroyed. She did a series of hand signs that was far too fast for anybody to keep up with and ending with an outstretched palm aimed towards an incoming blast of fire. The fire was quickly engulfed by the palm drawn into the body she then pointed the other palm at the sound ninja who sent the incoming blast. The shinobi’s eyes widened as he soon realized what was about too happen. The blast that had previously been absorbed was shot back at the shinobi who barely got out of the way of the blast. Hoping too take advantage of the blast’s cover he drew five kunai and readied for his next move.

    He ran out from his cover too see the Hokage was busy with another of his fellow shinobi. He took this chance to strike throwing a volley of kunai at the unsuspecting Kinoichi. Who of course dodges them easily in fact Tsunade caught one of them and threw it at the shinobi she was battling. Knowing most of that would have happened he blink stepped in front of her his palms direction in front of him aimed towards the fifth hokage. He then shouted his attack “sound prison!!” as the Hokage is engulfed in a huge sound barrier then exploded with a loud ‘thump’. Creating a large crater that grew by the second also sending shinobi around them skyward.

    After the thunderous strike subsided the Chuunin lay on the ground dead with Tsunade’s katana sticking out of his chest. Tsunade stood there unharmed by the blast and simply brushed off some dust that had settled on her shoulder.

    “Impressive indeed Tsunade” A sudden fear took over Tsunade as she turned around too see Orochimaru sitting on a large snake grinning at her.
