Chapter 141 -  Against the Raikage

In the late hour of the night, Tsunade and A were finally able to meet with Naturo and B, and while Naruto yells in surprise "G-Granny?!", B as soon as he saw then says "No... B... Brassiere!".

Hearing that A yells "BEEEEE!! How dare you be staring at the Hokage's chest at a time like this?!" but B quickly replies "N-no, I meant to say 'Brother' and tripped on the 'T'... But since you mentioned it I bet the Hokage's an 'E'!" then A yells "We're here to put a stop to this! You two aren't going one step further!".

As the Raikage was trying to talk with them, Tsunade is shocked by Naruto's Kyubi Chakra Mode, his body is coated in yellow chakra, which emanates from him reminiscent of flickering flames, two horns appeared on his head, together with six magatama markings around his neck, and some sort of prominent swirl design over his stomach, and various other lines extending along his body.

"Have you lost your mind? We are fighting this war to protect you two! If you are captured..." says A, but Naruto interrupts his sentence and says "If the enemy completes his jutsu it'll be the end of the world, Iruka-sensei told me!" hearing that A yells "Then why are you trying to leave?! You two are the biggest idiots I've ever seen!".

And Naruto yells back" I can't sit around while everyone's out there sacrificing themselves for me. If we win the war, but they all end up dead. It's all meaningless! I won't stand for it!" and they keep going back and forth until both A and Naruto decide to fight each other and both quickly jumps high in the air, but the Raikage using his Lightning Release Chakra Mode is able to hit first punching Naruto and sending him back to the ground, but Naruto was able to defend himself.

Naruto then turns to Tsunade and says "Granny Tsunade, you understand don't you? I promise I'll stop this war let me through!" but Tsunade replies "I'm here in my capacity as a leader of the Allied Ninja Army, and the army's view is that you need to be stopped, I can't take individual action as the Hokage this time!"

Then Naruto takes a deep breath to calm himself and says "All right, you've gotta do what you've gotta do, I understand... so... I'll force my way through!" and quickly moves to the sides, but A is still able to catch up with him thanks to his Lightning Release Chakra Mode, and Naruto unconsciously praised him for his speed, then A told Naruto about how he is the fastest ninja now that the Fourth Hokage Namikaze Minato died.

Then A spoke about how Minato who was called by Jiraiya the destined child, like almost every one of his disciples, failed in his duty of saving the world as he failed to deal with the Kyubi and that Naruto learned nothing from it, but that upsets Naruto, who remembers everything both his father and mother did for him, and yells "Don't talk about my dad... Like you know him... The Fourth Hokage didn't fail at all!!".

Then A looks at Naruto and says "If you insist on going no matter what, I'll kill you where you stand!" hearing that Tsuaned yells "Raikage!" and he explains "If he dies, it will buy us some time before the Kyubi is revived! The enemy will be forced to delay his plan!" then he throws a punch at Naruto, but he is stopped by B who used his Partial Jinchurichi Transformation to change his arm with Gyuki's one to catch A's fist "If that's your plan you could kill me too, the enemy will still be totally screwed, you can take my life, and let Naruto through".

Tsunade too says "Raikage, you can't make a cal like that without the agreement of the rest of the leaders! I don't care if you are the general of the army, I won't accept it!" but A counters "My Duty is to ensure our victory, I'll do whatever it takes!" and exasperated Tsunade asks "Then why are you only after Naruto and not the Hachibi!?".

And the Raikage once again yells "I'll kill my brother too, if and when the time comes! But right now Naruto is the smarter choice! B has more control over himself as a Jinchuriki and he can use the Bijuudama, he's more valuable in battle!" then he says to B "Now let go, B! You Jinchurikis can't just live for yourselves! You're part of the balance of power for all the Nations, and the hidden strength of your villages! You can't just run around doing as you please! Know your place, you stupid kids!".

B looks at his brother and says "Maybe you're right, but I'm still an individual with things I won't give up, without these I'm just another weapon for you to fire up" hearing that A asks "Why are you defending him so much, B?" then B turns his arm back to normal and fist bump A while saying "Can you still read my mind, when we bump fist, brother?".

Then they stood in silence for a few seconds looking at each other, and Naruto decide to try to break through once again, but the Raikage is faster and once again punch him back, but Naruto doesn't stop and tried again this time jumping high in the air, but the result doesn't change and he is once again punched back, but B takes advantage of that moment to hit his brother with a Lariat.

But A frees himself by elbowing B on his back and uses the force of the blow to push himself toward Naruto, but he is stopped by B who grew a Tentacle on his back to grab A, and at that moment Naruto once again makes his move, and A to stop him uses B tail to throw him at Naruto, then A landed and says "Hokage, give me a hand here".

But Tsunade slowly walks and stands in front of Naruto and B then she faces the Raikage who says "Hokage... You... You'd better have a damn good excuse for this!" and Tsunade says "Even if you did kill Naruto and buy us some time until the Kyubi revives, I doubt our next Jinchuriki would be able to control its power as well as Naruto right now! And since we still can't predict who'll win this war, we must be willing to fight with our full might! I'm letting Naruto through!!".

Hearing that Naruto smiles and yells "Awesome excuse, Granny! Well it's not an excuse... That's the granny Hokage I know and love!" then A ask what proof they had that Naruto could succeed, and B once again attacks his brother with a Lariat, and seeing this A says "I told you, your lariat is inferior you can't beat me!".

And when they clash B whispers to A "Brother... you have been misjudging my strength ever since you became Raikage!" then the two distance themselves and A says "B... I can't tell you how important you and Naruto are as Jinchurikis! to your villages... To your country! That is why I can't let you pass! No matter how strong you think you two are, Akatsuki has defeated and captured the other seven!".

Then B rush at him once again yelling "Naruto and I won't lose to them! We'll beat their ass ten times outta ten!" and A did the same "Fine brig it on! We'll see who's lariat wins!" and they clash once again, but this time, A is sent crashing into the ground and B says "Our power doesn't come from being a Jinchuriki, the real strength come from somewhere else, it ain't nearly as gimmicky, brother you once told me something I'll never forget and as long as they're true even a war's no sweat!".
