Chapter 097

Mio widened her eyes and nodded in understanding. Indeed, while she's very powerful when considering how little time she had to learn...she still lacked a lot of experience. Maybe she could learn something by watching the two 'Great Ladies'of Kuoh Academy fight.

Finally, Naruto turned to face the Gremory group and pulled out something from his pocket.

*jingle~*

Everyone stared at the small bell that was on Naruto's hand in confusion, what was that for?

"This...is the sound of hell ladies and gentlemen. One day you will flinch at the sound of this little bell. It will be your objective for everyone here. You don't have to do anything more than either; beat me, take the bell, or destroy the bell. That's it." the shinobi said with an easy-going smile.

Mio narrowed her eyes at that, it was too easy-going...

"...Aren't you taking us lightly Naruto? It's one thing if you yourself fought us, but just your clone?" Rias asked with a frown, slightly offended that the whiskered teen thought so little of their abilities.

Naruto just gave her a lazy smirk. "Then please...prove to me that I'm taking you lightly. If not...then I will lord it over your heads that you lost to my clone."

Rias turned towards her Peerage to confirm if they were feeling up to the challenge.

"Buchou...I want to prove Naruto-sempai wrong." Koneko said while putting on her cat-themed gloves.

"Yeah. We can't let him underestimate us too much Buchou." Yuuto said while jumping on foot-to-foot, prepping himself to fight.

"Absolutely Buchou. We can't let foxy-kun get too ahead of himself. Let's show him why he's our kohai." Akeno said with a sly grin.

Their opinions in hand, Rias gave Naruto a determined look.

"Alright everyone! Let's show him the power of the ORC!"

"""YES!"""

Naruto nodded in approval at their determination. He turned to his clones and nodded for them to begin meeting with their assigned groups.

His group was...

The blond sighed as he began walking towards the recalcitrant young hero, things were getting awkward between them...

He kinda hoped that the matter with Toujou could be dropped but he guessed that they needed to talk about it.

"...Welp, come on Yuki. Let's find our own little spot in the forest so that we could get started." Naruto said while tapping on her shoulder to get her attention.

Yuki looked at Naruto as if she was just registering his presence for the first time.

She must have been really out of it huh?

"Oh..ye-yes. Let's go." the young hero replied before following the blond deeper into the forest.

Mio watched as the two left silently, wondering why Naruto decided to personally train with the young hero.

As a matter of fact, from what she has heard...Naruto has been hanging out a lot with Yuki right?

Why?

"Mio-sama? Are you ok?" Maria asked worriedly, the red-head looked like she swallowed something sour.

"I'm fine Maria. Let's just focus ok?" Mio said with a slightly irritated tone. She had to focus on the spar, whatever was annoying her would go away once the battle started.

"Alright! You can call me 'Naruto-1' from now on. I'm the clone that will kick you all into shape! Hope you prepped your butts because they're about to get kicked!" the now dubbed Naruto-1 clone declared with a massive smirk.

But he stood still for a moment, obviously waiting for the roaring laughter that would come from his obviously humorous remarks.

...

"...You're jokes has taken a downturn."

"Ara ara. This clone isn't good at making jokes it seems."

"Sorry to say Naruto-1-san...but your jokes aren't too funny."

"That wasn't a joke Naruto-1."

Naruto-1 was shocked at the thoroughly unanimous opinion of the crowd. His joke sucked!?

He sat down, legitimately shell-shocked at this revelation.

But Rias widened her eyes at this.

An opening!

She turned to Yuuto and Koneko and gestured for them to take advantage of the situation.

They both nodded and quickly charged towards the unsuspecting blond.

They were about to attack...

But he almost as if he was an illusion, he vanished!

"...I didn't say start dattebayo."

Both Yuuto's and Koneko's eyes widened as they wheeled around saw that the blond had somehow gotten behind them!

Rias herself was shocked at the display in speed, she didn't see him move at all...

"At least you guys got the right idea, you won't be able to even touch me unless you take this seriously. So you better go all out!" Naruto-1 exclaimed before casually stretching the muscles in his arms.

"...Looks like this won't be easy at all Buchou." Akeno said with a rare tone of seriousness.

Rias couldn't help but agree.

"Akeno." Rias said, an inflection in her voice changed that simple statement into an order.

The queen understood immediately.

Akeno and Rias spread their bat-like wings and took flight into the sky to gain some distance, with the Naruto clone just standing there watching in curiosity.

He needed to see what they were capable of, so no blitzing until he wanted to end this.

The clone then turned to face Yuuto who had a slight grin on his face.

"I'll admit Naruto-san. I severely underestimated your abilities...even after I heard what happened at the abandoned church. You just didn't seem that strong at first glance. I won't make that mistake again." the bishōnen said with a confident grin on his face.

Naruto-1 wondered where all that confidence came from?

He was eager to find out.

"Well then, show me what you got Kiba-san." the blond clone goaded while making a 'come at me' gesture with his hand.

Yuuto obliged by slamming his sword to the ground.

"Sword Birth!" Yuuto shouted out.

Naruto-1 immediately had to move out of the way, as several swords ripped through the ground where he was standing.

The clone grinned at that, it was fitting for the 'Prince of Kuoh' to have such a power.

As he was sliding away from the sword attacks, he quickly allowed himself to fall onto all-fours in order to duck below the sailing tree that was aimed at him.

He could guess that Koneko was a power type...sounded familiar.

After dodging the large projectile, he got ready to defend himself as Yuuto dashed towards him with a sword covered in fire.

The bishōnen made to stab at the clone's torso, but he side-stepped the attack with minimal effort. Yuuto then quickly attempted to turn the stab into a horizontal slash.

Though he was way too slow, as the clone ducked under the slash before the arc could be completed.

Naruto-1 swiped his feet under Yuuto's legs which caused him to lose his balance and fall over. But before the maneuver could be completed, the clone had to get back from the incoming loli.

"Hei!"

Quite the battle cry from the quiet girl.

As Naruto-1 back-flipped away from danger, Koneko smashed the ground where he once laid.

The result was a small crater as big as she was.

She was definitely a power type.

"Alright. You two have some interesting abilities. But that won't be enough to defeat the great Naru-!" Naruto-1 was about to say, but before he finished his declaration...

Both devils immediately turned away from him and ran!
