Naruto: The Wind Calamity

Goro moved towards a boulder on the huge mountain. He said, "This should be a no-brainer, but we also have very high strength."

He raised his paw and brought it down on the boulder with a lot of force. His paw split the boulder into two and turned a lot of it into dust. Fujin wasn't surprised. He expected such physical prowess from them.

Goro said, "See see! How I turned it into dust with a wave of my paw! That's how strong I am."

Fujin replied, "Yeah, that is very strong. I wouldn't want to be on the receiving end of it."

Goro laughed, "Of course, you wouldn't. I could bite that stone too, but I don't want dust and soil in my mouth."

Fujin said, "It's fine. I can guess what a bite from you can do. Show me your other skills!"

Goro said, "Cool."

He flapped his wings and moved away from the mountain and said, "Watch. This is the skill that makes us the apex predators."

Goro's body suddenly became still. Chakra gathered on his wings. Fujin sensed it and was surprised, 'Nature chakra! Even the younger ones can use Senjutsu?'

Goro flapped his wings again. This time, he didn't move. Instead, very strong winds flew downwards. Fujin was surprised. He analyzed, 'That attack is stronger than my supercharged Infinite Breakthrough! And at least a few times stronger.'

Goro chuckled, "Are you shocked? You are shocked, right? If I use this attack on animals on land, all of them will die. Even if they survive, they will be injured. And even if they are strong enough to resist, I can just fly away. Hahahaha!"

If anyone else heard Goro's words, they might feel contempt for his attitude. However, Fujin wasn't one of them. He agreed with Goro's strategy wholeheartedly.

In Fujin's books, other than winning a war without fighting, the best way to fight was to maintain distance and keep attacking the enemy without allowing the enemy to attack back.

And if the enemy is stronger? He can always run away and turn the fight into a game of tag. It was why Fujin learnt so many jutsus that allowed him to hide and escape.

Fujin thought, 'Looks like I was hasty. He is good!'

Goro said, "In addition, we can also do this!"

He began gathering chakra in his throat. He looked up and fired a beam made of wind. The beam hit the cloud and created a huge hole in it!

Fujin observed the wind beam carefully. His eyes widened as he noticed how the beam worked. He couldn't help but mutter, "Incredible!"

Goro was surprised. He looked back at Fujin and asked, "Did you understand what happened?"

Fujin looked at Goro. He realized that Goro's breath had gotten heavier. He thought, 'It seems like the attack uses a lot of chakra.'

Fujin nodded, "Yeah. Though it seemed like a normal beam of wind, it is instead made of incredibly sharp winds. The inside of the beam is basically like a meat grinder. If anyone were to be hit by it, I doubt any flesh would be left on their bones!"

Goro exclaimed, "Wow! Father wasn't kidding when he said that your affinity to wind is very strong. And you are right. This is my most devastating attack. It is also the signature attack of our pride. We call it the Wind Breath or the Breath of Wind. The only way to survive it is if the opponent has a very tough body that can't be cut with my winds. But I haven't met any such opponents yet, hahaha. Even if someone has tough skin, they still have vulnerable parts like eyes, nose and ears."

Fujin wondered, 'Will I be able to withstand the attack with Iron skin? I should test it later with my clones. Regardless, this attack is very dangerous. If I can learn it, I can use it like a cheap version of dust release. I can recall very few ninjas who could defend against this attack.'

Goro interrupted Fujin's thoughts and said, "In addition, we also have some other moves. Like…"

He gathered chakra into his throat again and launched a ball of wind into the clouds. The attack left a small hole in the clouds. Fujin noticed, 'It is very similar to my Vacuum Cannon except for the fact that there is no vacuum core. However, its destructive power won't be much weaker than my Vacuum cannon due to the amount of chakra he put into it.'

Goro said, "This is our Air Bullet. We use it against weaker opponents as it doesn't need much chakra."

Fujin said, "That is still quite powerful. What else do you have?"

Goro answered, "Well, this is most of our traditional moves. Our fights usually involve us attacking with these attacks from a distance or using our strong bodies to crush our enemies. Some in the pride do make some of their personal moves or master another element, but I am still too young to learn them."

Fujin quickly asked, "I see. How old are you?"

Fujin was very interested in knowing the answer. After all, animals and humans had quite different growth stages and lifespans.

Goro answered in a smug voice, "I am one of the youngest in my pride and still one of the most reliable and strongest. I am only 39 years old!"

Fujin was stunned. He thought in disbelief, 'He is 39 years old? From the way he talked, I assumed he was 39 months old!'

Goro noticed that Fujin was speechless. He looked back and asked, "You can't believe how young, I am right? Seeing my strength, I bet you thought I am some 300 years old monster, right? Hahaha."

Fujin was left speechless. Though he had been very polite so far and praised Goro a few times to fan his ego so that he could get along better, he wasn't sure what he could say without being insulting.

Luckily, Goro changed the subject, "Now that you have seen what I can do, what ideas did you come up with for cooperation and teamwork?"

Fujin became serious and said, "I haven't thought of much. Like you, I also specialize in Wind manipulation. The only idea I had so far is launching my attacks at the same time as you to double our power or launching them alternatingly to double our attack frequency."

Goro looked at Fujin suspiciously and asked, "Do you think that your wind attacks are as strong as mine?"

Fujin replied, "Your Wind Breath is stronger than anything I can do right now. But others, I can amplify with my own attacks. For instance…"

Fujin built up around 15% of his chakra and looked above.

'Wind Release: Infinite Breakthrough jutsu'

He released the supercharged jutsu at the clouds above them. Goro observed and commented, "Wow! That was good. Not as strong as mine, but good nonetheless."

Fujin didn't answer and used another jutsu.

'Wind Release: Air Bullet jutsu'

He fired 15 air bullets. Goro said, "Not bad. They are much smaller in size, but the quantity is go…"

His eyes suddenly went wide open in shock. Fujin swung his sword and released a sword wave that split the clouds into two for over a hundred meters!

Goro exclaimed, "That was fucking good! You are strong!"

Fujin said, "I also have techniques to pierce into the strongest armor. So in case we encounter someone on whom your wind breath doesn't work, I could create openings in their defenses and let you kill them with ease.

But, though it seems strong, a combination of two wind users won't be very good. I will learn a few fire attacks so that we could use a Fire-Wind combination attack."

Goro said, "I agree. Not to mention, your chakra reserves took a big hit when you summoned me. That said, I am not sure how good a Fire-Wind combination attack will be."

Fujin replied, "It'll be awesome, I have already tried it with others who can spit fire. But yeah, you are right. Summoning you consumed more than 40% of my chakra. If I summon you in a fight, I'll have very little chakra left. So you will have to do the majority of the fighting."

Goro grinned and said, "As I said earlier, don't worry about it and leave everything to me! Hahahaha."

Fujin sighed at his eccentricities but didn't say anything. After all, it was a good thing that Goro was willing to fight for him and that he seemed to be a very competent fighter.

Fujin thought, 'Though Ryu said that my chakra growth will slow down, it is still growing at a considerable rate. In a year, it should grow sufficiently to at least make summoning Goro easier on my chakra reserves.'

Fujin and Goro tried a few combination attacks until Fujin ran out of chakra. Goro ended his reverse summoning and Fujin returned back to Konoha.
