Naruto: Winds and Changes

Naruto had to use a Kawarimi to get some breathing room as he appeared on the other end of the arena. Knowing it would not be long before Lee charged again, he began forming hand seals, "Raiton: Iakazuchi Hakai (Lightning Release: Lightning Current)!"

Smashing his hands on the ground Naruto shot several volts of lightning, which tore up the ground as they made their way towards Lee. However the green clad Genin merely jumped over the attack.

Unfortunately for Lee this was what Naruto wanted. Lee was fast and powerful, and while Naruto was as well, Lee was simply just that tad bit better that made a difference. However while Lee could fly across the ground, in the air he was vulnerable. Going through several hand seals the blond called out another jutsu.

"Suiton: Teppoudama (Water Release: Water Bullet)!" Naruto shot a canon sized bullet of water out of his mouth, and with Lee still in the air it connected, sending the boy even higher into the air.

At the apex of Lee's ascent Naruto appeared in a Shunshin, dropping down on the Genin with an axe kick. Lee was sent sailing back towards the ground where he smashed down and created a large cloud of dust. Naruto landed on the ground and dropped to one knee as he panted a bit. He was starting to get tired, using so many jutsu and fighting for so long was something even he barely had the stamina for. He looked into the large cloud of dust, trying to see where Lee would come out, since Naruto knew that would not put him down.

Before the dust even had a chance to clear Lee shot out, coming towards Naruto at insane speeds. Grunting Naruto stood up and just as Lee launched a punch, he sent his own. Naruto grunted as he and Lee were launched away from one another thanks to the force their punch generated.

As Naruto looked at himself he had never been so glad for his healing factor, if he did not have it he would probably look like Lee now. Said boy had bruises on nearly every part of his body, his face was slightly swollen and he had a broken nose that had blood trickling down from it.

Naruto had to hold in a grimaced. His clothes were almost gone now. His cloak had long since been ripped away, his shirt more revealing than Anko's fishnet, his pants had changed into shorts with one side going up to mid-thigh, and his beautiful orange gloves had been destroyed sometime during the last half hour. He was glad he had sealed his gauntlet or it would be destroyed too.

Many of the girls up in the stands blushed at seeing Naruto's toned, half nude body. A few even ended up passing out from nosebleeds. While others, namely Yugito licked their lips and grinned.

"You…really are…an incredible fighter Lee," Naruto fought to regain his breath as several of the bruises on his face healed. "Honestly had you ever taken those weights off when you fought against Neji in those spars of yours, you would have kicked his ass hands down."

Naruto was glad he had released all of his resistance seals before the fight or he would not have even had time to do so during the battle. No doubt he would have gotten his ass kicked if he had gone with that route.

Lee grinned, "Thank you Naruto-kun! You are a most youthful fighter yourself! Which is why I have declared you as my new eternal rival!"

Naruto sweat dropped. "Uh, thanks Lee, I guess."

"Yosh! You are most welcome my youthful comrade! Now come, let us unite our flames of youth!"

As Lee shot off again Naruto cursed, I need to find some way to neutralize him! This is getting insane!

Naruto made quick use of a Kawarimi to dodge Lee's attack, and needing some time to think Naruto put his hands in the ram sign, "Tajuu Kage Bunshin No Jutsu!"

There was a large puff of smoke before several hundred clones appeared on the arena floor. Lee looked at all the clones and grinned, right before he disappeared and began destroying clones left in right.

However while Lee was busy with his Bunshin bashing, Naruto was busy coming up with a way to neutralize Lee's speed. Coming up with a quick plan the blond waited until Lee was finished with his clones.

As soon as the clones were gone Naruto launched several dozen shuriken, forcing Lee to dodge the attacks. However these were just a distraction and when Lee jumped into the air a clone of Naruto's jumped with him and threw a kunai attached with steel grade ninja wire, catching the green clad Genin in it and then kicking him to the ground.

Naruto sighed in relief as he saw Lee struggle with his bonds, "Looks like I win this one Lee. I had that ninja wire specifically designed for someone with your insane strength. You won't be getting out of those."

Lee looked up at Naruto before smiling, "This match still is not over Naruto-kun. Remember, the lotus of the leaf, blooms twice."

I will not lose here. Gai-sensei acknowledges it. Now is the time I must prove and protect my nindo.

"Kaimon: Kai (Gate of Opening: Release)!" there was a massive surge of chakra at Lee's shout. Along with the surge in chakra, Lee seemed to gain a surge in strength, for he snapped the ninja wire with ease. Standing up Lee put his arms in a cross guard.

Kakashi whirled on Gai who was watching the battle with a very serious expression, "I can't believe you taught him how to open the gates."

"I wanted to help Lee achieve his dreams Kakashi," Gai said in a rare serious voice. "That boy is willing to risk everything for his dreams. And so I helped him. I do not regret it."

"Kyumon: Kai (Gate of Healing: Release)!" at Lee's exclamation a massive surge of chakra was released as the ground under him began to splinter.

"Seimon: Kai (Gate of Life: Release)!" Lee's skin began to turn red as more chakra started shooting around his body.

"Shomon: Kai (Gate of Pain: Release)!" Naruto almost cringed when even more chakra shot out of Lee. Not only was he now completely red, his eyes were now all white.

Naruto paled as he felt Lee's chakra match his own reserves and then pass them, Oh Shit! Oh shit oh shit oh shit! 'Kyuubi!'

Knowing what Naruto wanted Kyuubi immediately began channeling her youki through him, 'Naruto-kun I can't give you any more than one tail. You may be a Hanyou, but anything else right now would send you into an uncontrollable bloodlust.'
