Naruto: The Monkey King

Chapter 9: Wrath of the Monkey King



Orochimaru's smirk widened as he finished forming the seals. The ground trembled slightly, and from the dirt rose another coffin, the kanji for "four" emblazoned on it. With a creak, the lid slid open, revealing none other than Minato Namikaze, the Fourth Hokage.

Minato blinked, his blue eyes scanning the battlefield before they landed on Naruto. A soft smile formed on his lips. "Naruto..."

Naruto's face lit up with joy and disbelief. "Dad! I can't believe it's really you!" His voice cracked with emotion. "I've admired you my whole life, even before I knew you were my father!"

Kabuto, standing behind Orochimaru, stared in shock. "The Fourth Hokage... and he's Naruto's father?!"

Before the moment could settle, Orochimaru slipped a kunai into Minato, the same withered tag attached as before. Minato's eyes dulled, his expression growing blank and lifeless like Dan and Nawaki before him.

Orochimaru sneered at Naruto. "I must admit, Naruto-kun, you have spirit, but the odds aren't in your favor now. Even with your so-called strength, you'll have to face the five of us."

Naruto grinned confidently, his eyes glinting with a dangerous edge. "Odds, huh?" He chuckled, before spinning his staff. "I will be sure to take it easy on you guys"

As the battle begins, Naruto quickly turns to Tsunade"Tsunade, stay back. I'll handle this."

Without hesitation, Naruto taps into his powers and creates four Monkey King Clones. They leap into action, each one targeting a specific opponent: Kabuto, Dan, Nawaki, and Minato.

The original Naruto goes after Orochimaru, but the first of his clones rushes toward Kabuto. Kabuto smirks, confident in his medical expertise and battle experience, as the two clash.

Kabuto starts by activating his chakra scalpels, his hands glowing with the deadly chakra that can sever muscles and tendons with a single strike. He charges at the clone, aiming for Naruto's vital points. The clone, however, is unfazed. Wielding his divine staff, Yeoui, the clone blocks Kabuto's strikes.

Kabuto's speed is impressive, but the clone matches him blow for blow. As Kabuto attempts to land a disabling strike, the clone twists his body, using the momentum to swing Yeoui in a wide arc. Kabuto barely dodges, flipping back to create some distance.

"You're not like the Naruto I remember. You've become dangerous." Kabuto

The clone grins, extending Yeoui to an incredible length. The staff shoots forward like a spear, forcing Kabuto to dodge again. However, the clone had anticipated this. With a flick of his wrist, he retracts the staff and slams it into the ground, sending a shockwave toward Kabuto.

The ground shatters beneath Kabuto's feet, and before he can react, the clone is already upon him. The clone swings Yeoui in a flurry of strikes, each one faster and stronger than the last. Kabuto tries to counter with his chakra scalpels, but the sheer force of the staff sends him stumbling back.

Realizing that a frontal assault isn't working, Kabuto switches tactics. He forms hand seals quickly and slams his hands on the ground, summoning a large snake. The snake lunges at the clone, fangs bared.

The clone smirks, leaping into the air. With a powerful swing of Yeoui, the clone smashes the snake into the ground, crushing it beneath the staff's weight.

Kabuto's eyes widen as the clone lands in front of him. He quickly activates Yin Healing Wound Destruction, gathering chakra to the points on his body where he expects to be hit. He prepares for the next exchange, confident that he can survive any damage.

But the clone isn't finished. It shifts Yeoui into a smaller, more manageable size, and closes the distance between them. Using a series of rapid strikes, the clone overwhelms Kabuto, each blow faster than the last. Kabuto struggles to keep up, barely healing himself in time.

In the midst of the chaos, the clone delivers a powerful kick to Kabuto's side, sending him crashing into the ground. Kabuto groans, clutching his side, but before he can recover, the clone raises Yeoui above his head.

With a final, devastating blow, the clone brings Yeoui down, smashing Kabuto into the ground. Kabuto's vision blurs as the last of his healing chakra runs dry.

"Not so confident now, are you?" Clone

Kabuto falls unconscious, defeated.

Meanwhile, another clone faces Nawaki, who stands with a vacant expression. Though once just a young genin, in his current form, Nawaki has infinite chakra, making him a significant threat.

Nawaki attacks first, charging with surprising speed. He throws a barrage of punches and kicks, his strikes. The clone blocks and counters, using his own impressive taijutsu skills to match Nawaki blow for blow.

The clone sweeps Yeoui in a low arc, attempting to trip Nawaki, but Nawaki jumps over the staff and delivers a kick aimed at the clone's head. The clone ducks and retaliates with a sharp thrust of Yeoui, aiming for Nawaki's stomach. Nawaki twists his body mid-air, avoiding the attack, and lands on the other side of the battlefield.

Nawaki forms hand seals, summoning a burst of Earth Release jutsu. The ground beneath the clone erupts as spikes of earth shoot up from the ground, threatening to impale the clone. But the clone is quick, leaping onto a miniature Geundoowun, his small cloud, and flying above the spikes.

From above, the clone extends Yeoui and brings it down with tremendous force. The staff crashes into the earth, shattering the spikes and creating a massive crater. Nawaki is thrown off balance, but quickly recovers, charging once again.

This time, the clone meets him head-on. The two engage in a fierce close combat exchange, with the clone using Yeoui to block and counter every strike. Nawaki's movements are fast and relentless, but the clone remains calm, waiting for the right moment.

In an instant, the clone spins Yeoui and delivers a powerful strike to Nawaki's side, sending him tumbling across the ground. As Nawaki tries to get up, the clone appears in front of him, driving Yeoui into the ground next to his head.

"You're strong, but this fight is over." Clone

With a quick motion, the clone extends Yeoui again, sweeping Nawaki off his feet and slamming him into the ground. Nawaki's body lies still, defeated but unable to die.

The clone then prepares to purify Nawaki's soul, allowing him to rest in peace.

The third clone faces Dan Kato, a legendary shinobi with a unique and terrifying ability, the Spirit Transformation Technique. Dan's soul detaches from his body, becoming a living spirit that can move through physical objects and attack directly.

The clone immediately senses the danger, as Dan's spirit form rushes toward him. The clone tries to defend with Yeoui, but Dan phases through the staff effortlessly. The clone's eyes widen as Dan attempts to strike him.

But the clone is prepared. Using Soul Interaction, the clone counters with a strike aimed at Dan's soul. Yeoui, infused with spiritual energy, glows as it connects with Dan's soul, causing Dan to recoil in surprise.

Dan reforms, returning to his physical body. He charges the clone, launching a series of rapid taijutsu attacks. The clone blocks each strike with Yeoui, the staff moving with incredible speed and precision.

Dan, realizing that physical attacks won't be enough, switches back to his spirit form, attempting to bypass the clone's defenses. But the clone keeps up, swinging Yeoui with enhanced spiritual energy, clashing with Dan's spirit.

The two continue to battle, with Dan phasing in and out of his spirit form, trying to find an opening. But the clone's mastery of both physical and spiritual combat keeps Dan at bay.

Finally, the clone catches Dan off guard with a rapid spin of Yeoui, landing a direct hit on Dan's soul. The impact sends Dan crashing back into his physical body, where the clone quickly follows up with a powerful strike, pinning him to the ground.

"It's time for you to rest." Clone

The clone uses Soul Interaction to purify Dan's soul, freeing him from Orochimaru's control.

The fourth and final clone faces Minato, Naruto's father and the most dangerous of the reanimations. Minato, controlled by Orochimaru, stands emotionless, his eyes empty as he prepares to fight his son's clone.

Minato disappears in an instant, teleporting behind the clone with a Rasengan already formed in his hand. The clone blocks with Yeoui, the force of the attack sending shockwaves through the air.

Minato vanishes again, reappearing at another angle. The clone spins Yeoui, using it to block and deflect Minato's strikes.

The clone smirks, extending Yeoui to try and catch Minato, but the Flying Raijin makes it difficult to predict where he'll appear next. Minato throws a kunai marked with his signature seal, teleporting to it in an instant and delivering another Rasengan.

The clone is hit, but the damage was minimal.

The battle between the clone and Minato got more intense. The clone's enhanced spiritual energy flows through Yeoui, creating an aura of power around the staff. Minato, undeterred, launches another quick attack, teleporting with his Flying Raijin to strike from multiple angles.

Each time Minato reappears, the clone anticipates the move. The clone's eyes glow with the Fiery Eyes and Golden Pupils, granting it enhanced perception, allowing it to see Minato's movements as if in slow motion.

With this new advantage, the clone begins to turn the tide of the battle. As Minato vanishes again, the clone thrusts Yeoui toward the space where Minato is about to reappear. The staff strikes the air just as Minato materializes, forcing him to retreat and regroup.

"I can see you now, Dad. You can't outrun this." Clone

Minato's expression remains neutral, but the intensity of his movements increases. He throws another Flying Raijin kunai, but this time, the clone doesn't give him the chance to teleport. With a quick motion, the clone extends Yeoui to impossible lengths, catching the kunai mid-air and hurling it far away.

Before Minato can summon more kunai, the clone charges in, swinging Yeoui with a force that cracks the earth beneath them.

Minato dodges gracefully, but the clone continues its relentless assault. Each swing of Yeoui is faster and stronger, pushing Minato back.

The clone seizes the opportunity, closing the distance with Geundoowun and delivering a rapid sequence of lightning strikes.

Minato barely manages to dodges, but the force of the strikes is too much. The clone spins Yeoui in a wide arc, disarming Minato and sending his kunai flying.

In an instant, Minato performs a hand sign and vanishes completely. He uses the Flying Thunder God: Second Step, moving between previously marked locations faster than the eye can follow.

The clone stands its ground, focusing all of its enhanced senses, searching for any hint of Minato's presence. Suddenly, Minato reappears directly behind the clone, his Rasengan poised to strike.

But the clone is ready. With a quick motion, it spins Yeoui behind its back, intercepting Minato's attack.

Before Minato can retreat, the clone uses its free hand to summon another clone's staff. With both staffs in hand, the clone attacks with unmatched ferocity. Minato tries to evade, but the clone's newfound speed and power overwhelm him.

Finally, with a powerful double strike from both Yeoui, the clone knocks Minato to the ground, pinning him with the weight of the divine staffs.

"Rest now, Dad." Clone

The clone channels its Soul Interaction ability into the divine staffs, purifying Minato's soul and freeing him from Orochimaru's control. As Minato's body falls limp, a faint smile crosses his face, as though, in his final moments, he recognized Naruto's strength.

"Naruto... I'm proud of you." Minato

"You've come far, Naruto... but you're still no match for me." Orochimaru

Naruto, his aura crackling with energy, faces Orochimaru head-on. Orochimaru opens with a barrage of snake summons, the massive serpents slithering out of the ground and converging on Naruto. But Naruto is unshaken. With a single swing of Yeoui, he extends the staff to an incredible length, smashing through the snakes like they're nothing more than paper.

Orochimaru hisses in annoyance, forming hand seals as he prepares a more deadly attack.

"I see you've grown, Naruto-kun. But you're still no match for me." Orochimaru

With a flick of his wrist, Orochimaru summons a massive serpent, Manda. The colossal creature roars as it lunges toward Naruto, its fangs gleaming with deadly venom.

Naruto, however, doesn't flinch. He leaps into the air, as Manda strikes. In mid-air, Naruto twirls Yeoui, extending it once more and delivering a powerful downward strike on Manda's head. The impact sends shockwaves through the battlefield, but Manda, furious, recoils and prepares to strike again.

Naruto spins in mid-air, unleashing a devastating Hwechook kick. The kick connects with Manda's head, sending the massive serpent crashing into the ground, dazed and defeated.

Before Orochimaru can react, Naruto dives toward him, using Bo-Bup to close the distance in an instant. Orochimaru's eyes widen as Naruto appears right in front of him, swinging Yeoui with tremendous force.

Orochimaru barely dodges the attack, slithering backward like a snake, but Naruto is relentless. Naruto presses the attack, swinging Yeoui in a series of rapid strikes, each one faster and more powerful than the last. Orochimaru, for all his speed and skill, struggles to keep up.

In desperation, Orochimaru summons the Kusanagi sword from his mouth, using it to block Naruto's strikes. The two clash, the sword of legend against the divine staff, sparks flying with each impact.

"You're stronger than I thought, Naruto-kun. But I'll still have your body!" Orochimaru

Orochimaru's body twists unnaturally as he tries to envelop Naruto with his snake body, but Naruto simply smirks. With a burst of energy, he sends Orochimaru flying.

Naruto then spins and delivers a powerful strike with Yeoui, the attack cuts off Orochimaru's arm and severely injured him.

"It's over, Orochimaru. You won't escape this time." Naruto

Before Orochimaru can regenerate or summon another trick, Naruto uses his Soul Interaction technique.

Orochimaru's screams fill the air as Naruto destroys his soul.

As the dust settles, the battlefield grows quiet. Naruto's clones have all returned, having defeated the reanimated Dan, Nawaki and Minato.

Tsunade, who had been watching from a distance, steps forward, her eyes wide with awe and disbelief. She had witnessed Naruto's incredible power, far beyond anything she had expected.

"Naruto... you... you really did it." Tsunade

Naruto smirked" I told you I'd handle it."
