-A Hoozuki’s clan secret!
(Gaara, Tsuchikage, and the other present ninja on the field are transfixed upon eminent devastation. Adding salt to the wound, Mizukage sarcastically taunts them from his overbearing form from above.)
Mizukage: “See, that’s what you get for your nonchalant attitude. It was only a matter of time before what I said became irrelevant; *tsk* kids these days, it’s all fun and games until someone gets hurt.”
(On closer inspection, the large form that encompasses the entirety of the space above them can be viewed as transparent. Mizukage aims an enormous palm in front of the entire party, Tsuchikage is quick to act.)
Tsuchikage: “EVERYONE TO MY REAR! (The party’s in such a state of worry, they care not to question him. Tsuchikage completes a series of hand seals and then drops both hands to the ground.) This barricade will have to do!”
(An enormous wall of earth that puts shame to all the doton walls we’ve seen before, rises up into the sky. The party is in awe, even Gaara.)
Gaara: “That’s, impressive…”
(Immediately, on the other side of the wall, a large, violently compressed ball of liquid collides into the earth style wall, shattering it, as the resulting waves sweeps them into a mess of liquid, meanwhile, Mizukage scratches his enormous face with his finger.)
Mizukage (in thought): “Guess I over did it again…” (Focusing on the party, they are blown back, quite a distance away and separated. Gaara gets attention first, he is seen soaked and wedged between a crevice.)
Gaara: “Uhh… The old man really came through for us… Against his type of attacks, my ninjutsu’s no good… (Gaara tries to manipulate some sand from his gourd, however, it just clumps together and breaks apart. Gaara becomes attentive as he starts hearing moans and groans.) That must be-.” (The scene switches over to the source of the painful sounds, Tsuchikage has a small boulder about the size of a bowling ball, on top of his back. He now screams out in pain.)
Tsuchikage: “OOOH! HOLY COW! Ouch! MY BACK! I think it’s over now! That’s the one that broke this old man’s back I think, I hope not, but that’s what it feels like, boy oh boy oh boy!” (Gaara finds the old man in great agony.)
Gaara: “There you are.”
Tsuchikage: “ DON’T JUST SIT THERE KID, REPAY A DEPT!” (Gaara lifts the stone off of the Tsuchikage’s back. After the Tsuchikage finally settles down, they get down to serious business.)
Gaara: “You’ve experienced his sort of technique before I take it from your previous explanation.”
Tsuchikage: “*sigh* live as long as I and you’ll see a great many things you wished you hadn’t. Though I guess the important thing here is how to stop it. Well, first of all, he’s using a skill called hydration, which is a common right to passage for those of the Hoozuki clan. They can liquefy themselves and if supported by larger water sources, they can be one with the water and take complete advantage over the entire field. And those more gifted are even more deadly.”
Gaara: “But there was no water to be found.”
Tsuchikage: “Use your head Kazekage! He created it! With his chakra level he could create an abundance of it and mix himself with it. The Infinite Explosions technique derives from his ability to manipulate enormous levels of his insanely, huge liquid self and direct it at us as projectiles, the impact results in an explosion. The size, shape, speed, etc, of the projectile is entirely up to him. It’s a terrible technique to deal with. My A-ranked doton defense barely stood a chance, plus, I’m out of gas.”
Gaara: “I can’t stand with him. My sand’s no match for his oil/water based attacks.”
Tsuchikage: “We need to retreat, live to fight another day.”
Gaara: “I don’t like it, but that sounds like the most logical approach. We’ll rally up the sealing squad and determine another route.” (Immediately, Gaara and Tsuchikage are contacted via telepathy.)
Shikaku: “That won’t be necessary…” (The scene switches over to Killer Bee, he spots the Mizukage’s large form is surveying the area. Killer Bee has a conversation with the Hachibi.)
Hachibi: “Should we handle this one?”
Killer Bee: “Ehh, ‘dat Naruto’s been all over, layin’s shit down where ever he goes… ‘Bout time I had somethin’ to pick wit’ besides my nose.”
Next Time: Naruto’s had his fun, now it’s Killer Bee’s turn
