Death Battle: Kunoichi Battle Royale Prelude

Preface: The Combatants

________________

Sakura Haruno

Age: 17

Species: Human

Sex: Male

Weight: 100 lbs.

Height: 1.61 meters

Profession: Medical-Chunin

Affiliations: Konaha 12, Team Kakashi

_______________

As the Designated Heroine of the series, Sakura always strives not to be left behind by her squadmates Sasuke and Naruto.

And Failing miserably.

She's your teammate's apprentice.

So? Kakashi was my son's apprentice and he sucked as a sensei-

The Yondaime was your son?!

According to some fan theories. Why not? Anyway, Sakura is the apprentice Godaime Tsunade and has become an "accomplished" kunoichi after only three years.

Well, when you can break boulders with a chakra-charged punch, why would she be? Thanks to her precise chakra control, Sakura can charge and then release chakra through her punches without conscious effort. She's strong enough to potentially rupture or kill opponents with a single punch. In addition, she also has a great degree of sheer raw strength which can be utilized to lift heavy objects such as a boulder twice her size or even destroying the environment around her.

As long as she doesn't break ribs like Tsunade did-

She does punch out Naruto for stupid stuff.

"Laughs"

That's not funny. It wouldn't be funny it was the other way around!

I know! That's what's so funny! Tsunade was like that with me!

What do you guys see in girls like her?

Girls stronger than you? She's got something of a fire and it drives her to fight for the sake of her friends. It just so happens that she may give her friends a love tap as well. Call it tough love if you will. But that strength of her's only gets stronger when she unleashes two seals that she inherited from Tsunade.

Right...

She can utilize the "Strength of Hundred" Seal where chakra stored over several years is released to amplify the user's physical and regenerative abilities. As long as she still has chakra, the seal will not fail. Mastery of this Seal also means that a medical-nin can break rules of combat that normally forbade direct combat.

Probably better if she'd stayed back.

You want her back in the kitchen?

No! I'm all for equal rights. Sakura can be a very intelligent and even at times, deceptive kunoichi. But Sakura clearly has some emotional problems that dangerously cloud her capabilities and judgement. This can lead her to do idiotic, rash and outright harmful actions with consequences having negative results for most folks involved. Just refer to her overall uselessness in Part 1; the Failfession; Her failure to take out nearly blind, injured and exhausted Sasuke twice in a row; Getting Naruto poisoned as a result of failing to take out a nearly blind, injured and exhausted Sasuke; and most recently failing to take out Madara's other eye when Obito pretty much had a bullseye on his head.

Eh...she's also been trained in the use of poison, including a deliberating one which can paralyze and potentially kill it's target upon impact.

Shame the only time she actually used it, it was against her own comrade! Also, it's heavily implied that Sakura doused the knife in poison beforehand rather than being able to generate it on the fly like Shizune can. However, she does carry sleep bombs on her person...which she used against her comrades.

Some heroine eh?

Some heroine.

Ino Yamanaka

Age: 17

Weight: 101 lbs.

Height: 1.62 meters

Profession: Botanist, Chunin, Medial-Nin, Sensor-Nin

Affiliations: Konoha 12, Team Asuma, Yamanaka Clan

_______________

Gorgeous, Multi-talented, bold and caring, Ino is a member of the most recent incarnation of the Ino-Shika-Cho team formation.

She's a diva on first appearances, but gets over it as she gets older. She may even have a tender spot for Choji.

Wow! Considering that she was basically Sakura 2.0 in Part 1, I'm surprised that she opened up her horizons-

Don't read too much into it. Choji ain't fat or even big-boned anymore....he's now pretty.

Oh...anyway. Ino is primarily a support shinobi meant to capture enemies and interrogate them. The Yamanaka Clan specializes in mind-reading jutsu which allows the user to enter a target's mind to see memories and thoughts. They can even use this style to take control of a target's body or even more than one if they're close enough together. They can even send their chakra into an enemy's nervous system and remotely control them without possessing.

But with the exception of the latter technique, most Yamanaka jutsu leaves the user's body immobile while their consciousness is elsewhere. If the body is attacked then the jutsu will be disrupted. In addition, the consciousness can be forced out if the victim's will is strong enough.

Fortunately, Ino has more than trick up her...skirt?

Perv.

Shut up! Ino is a sensor which allows her to sense and pinpoint different chakra sources. She's also trained in medical jutsu for healing through the mystical palm technique. Though not as refined as Sakura's, she also has excellent chakra control and can even entrap targets by using cut hair to bind them. She's also skilled enough in taijutsu to be able to hold her own against multiple opponents while possessing an unfamiliar body.

She can also generate an Earth Wall due to having a natural affinity for the Earth style. Which is great for defensive purposes, though Ino has little training in fully utilizing it.

In addition, her Yamanaka Jutsu mastery is powerful enough to even possess powerful shinobi such as Kinkaku and Tobi, the latter was possessed twice in a row.

But she still needs to see who she's possessing and the technique can be dodged. Which would be bad for a vulnerable Ino.

Don't make a "she's asleep, so can't say no" joke.

I wasn't going to do that. What about you?

Me?

You've got a sick mind kid.

Of course I do! I'm a fanfic writer!

A very...very sick mind...

Temari

Age: 20

Weight: 105 lbs.

Height: 1.65 meters

Profession: Ambassador to Konoha, Kazekage bodyguard, Jonin

Affiliations: Sand Siblings
________________

The older sister of Kazekage Gaara, Temari is not easily overshadowed by her younger brother.

Yeah, damn shame that Shikamaru's taken her.

Temari is a highly skilled kunoichi that specialises in long-range combat. The facts that she is chosen to be a bodyguard of the Kazekage and the leader of the group of shinobi who should deal with the Third Raikage, who was a literal one-man army, are testaments of her skills.

Then again, anyone whose a jonin or better is pretty much always a one-man army.

As a highly gifted and intelligent analyst, Temari is capable of quickly deducing an opponent's strengths and weaknesses. Which also makes her a deadly strategist even in the heat of battle.

She primarily uses that giant fan of hers for long-range wind-jutsu though it can be used to block attacks or as an improvised club or to glide.

Fly?

Glide!...nevermind...

Each purple "star" within her fan determines the strength of the torrents she creates. When all three are revealed, the full force of Temari's wind currents are unleashed. It's power can range from a deadly wind blade capable of dispelling sound genjutsu to a deadly tornado capable of destroying a large section of a pretty much infinitely long forest.

She also has great accuracy with her wind jutsu, being capable of cutting off armor without harming the wearer. By the time of the Fourth Shinobi War, Temari is regarded as the best Wind Release user amongst the Five Shinobi villages.

What about Naruto-

That kid's in his own class, he doesn't count.

Though Temari has no obvious weakness or blindspot, her techniques do rely heavily on the use of her fan. Should she encounter a fast melee combatant or lose her fan, she would become largely helpless.

The Databook says-

"Slaps book out Jiraiya's hands" Don't me that it's explained in the manual.

"Picks up databook" The databook says-

"Slaps book out of Jiraiya's hands" Don't.

"Picks up databook" The databook says-

"Sets databook on fire" How do ya like me now?

One second. "Summons a poster of a sexy wet-shirt Tenten and Hinata cosplayers"

"Nosebleeds and faints"

He'll be up in a second folks. "Summons the real databook." According to the databook, Temari actually has a 3/5 score with hand signs and she'd probably had to start using her wind jutsu somewhere. So if she did lose her hand, she may be able to still use her jutsu, just on a lesser scale and with a bit more difficulty. So yeah, that would be a bit of a disadvantage.

"Wakes up and snatches poster from Jiraiya's hands" Happy now?

I know you'll be happy later.

"Groans."

Tenten

Age: 18

Weight: 104 lbs.

Height: 1.54 meters

Profession: Chunin

Affiliations: Team Gai, Konoha 12
_________________

Recognized as the fastest kunoichi amongst her peers, Tenten's weapon's based abilities seem kind of out of place.

Well let's see. Most Konoha shinobi can breath fire, make clones of themselves, summon animals that turn into weapons, manipulate the elements, substitute themselves with other things or punch stuff really hard till it breaks. Yeah...I can see where you're going with this.

However, her training under Might Gai allows her to use her weapons in melee and ranged combat. She keeps most of her weapons in specially designed scrolls until she summons them. This arsenal of weaponry includes an extremely heavy metal doll; a bow with arrows; a chain wind staff; an exploding sphere; fuma shuriken; a kama; kusarigama; crossbow; bo staff; a fireball; a large exploding fire dragon; swords; tantos; kunai; explosive tags and a giant spiked ball named jidanda.

And she can manipulate all of it with chakra wires.

Overkill much?

The girl's got 100/100 accuracy and that's something considering her sealing ability. Gai said that she even sealed a large boat into a seal once. She's also got some crazy measurement abilities and can improvise on the fly when necessary. 

Her main method of using this crazy accurate form of overkill is the Twin Rising Dragons technique where she takes two scrolls, unseals the weapons within and uses them to barrage or eviscerate an opponent.

The Heavenly Chain Disaster is the aforementioned technique...on steroids.

However, Tenten has to be careful or her own weapons could potentially be used against her with a sufficiently powerful elemental jutsu such as a wind attack.

She's also lacking in the defensive area. Normally relying on staying back and throwing things at an opponent until they die. Though she is pretty adept in close-quarters combat thanks to Gai's training. Ranged-Combat just appears to be her cup and tea.

Something that's even further enhanced when she uses the Bashosen. This powerful weapon is one of five tools of the Sage of Six Paths which can generate all five chakra nature types.

With a mental thought, the Bashosen can unleash a powerful attack of the desired element. The only downside is that most humans die from chakra exhaustion after using the fan for a short amount of time.

An excellent testament to Tenten's chakra reserves is that she can use this fan twice in a row and not die. Though she will be drained and exhausted afterwards. Which is always better than being dead.

Unless you count snu-snu

Well yeah...what are you scared of? I'd think that you'd like that!

You would think so..."cringes"...Can we move on?

Gladly.

Karin

Age: 17

Weight: 101 lbs.

Height: 1.62 meters

Profession: Sensor-Nin

Affiliations: Kusagakure, Otogakure (former), Hebi/Taka
________________

The sole survivor of an unknown village, Karin was eventually taken in and tutored by Orochimaru. At some point, she apparently infiltrated Kusagakure and participated in the Pre-Oto/Suna Invasion Chunin Exam though she presumably was dropped out. Eventually, Karin was found as a prison warden for the Otogakure Southern Prison where Missing-nin Sasuke recruited her.

This girl's fucked up in the head.

You think?

Seriously, she's got all of the symptoms! Split Personality! Obsessive fanaticism! Getting off on a bite! Denial of Obvious problems-

Back on topic. Despite being a survivor of the Uzamaki Clan and being capable of utilizing powerful chakra chains strong enough to break a Wood Release War-Statue, Karin is mostly a non-combatant. Her main function is her Eye of Kagura which allows her to perceive and track chakra signatures. She's even capable of reading chakra levels in individual targets.

She can also...bite...herself in order to heal injuries in exchange for chakra. A fairly potent ability as it did manage to save Tsunade after she was cut in half. She can also use the mystical palm technique, but isn't too good with it and relies on biting instead.

While she's a very intelligent individual and can even cloak her chakra at the expense of it's usage while in stealth, Karin has some serious priority issues. She follows around an international criminal because he's cute and then gets pointlessly almost killed by said criminal after she'd healed him.

Women like the bad boys, son-

This is just...no! This goes beyond that old cliche. At first Karin looks like she's deciding the intelligent thing and ditching Sasuke. But when she breaks out of prison and meets up with him, she instantly forgives Sasuke and is still desperate to protect him. WHY?

Karin's not going to win this royale, is she?

She'd better not.
________________

Hinata Hyuga

Age: 17

Weight: 99 lbs.

Height: 1.6 meters

Profession: Chunin, Clan Heiress

Affiliations: Hyuga Clan, Team Kurenai, Konoha 12
_________________

With piercing vision and striking beauty, Hinata gracefully embodies the virtues of perseverance and compassion.

And two other virtues on her chest...I heard that she was even staked as a genin-

Moving on. Hinata is a member of the Hyuga Clan, a prestigious noble clan that is feared and reputed as the strongest in the village.

Especially with all Uchiha being either dead, traitors or insane. Kind of Convenient.

The key to their power is the Byakugan. A Kekkei Genkai that that allows it's user to see through solid objects, perceive and zoom-in on long distances, and most importantly, perceive chakra flow. The latter ability allows the Hyuga to employ a specially tuned style known as the Gentle Fist.

With the Gentle Fist, a Hyuga can directly target chakra points and close them, preventing an enemy from using jutsu. Or they can use their palms to instantly KO or kill an enemy if hit in the right spot like the chest. Hinata employs this style with deadly efficiency, being capable of utilizing the powerful 64 Palms technique which can completely shut down a chakra network in a few strikes.

Hinata can even combine this style with her own original jutsu. The Twin Lion Steps is when Hinata concentrates pure chakra around her arms that form into lion heads. Though rarely seen, they increase the overall physical potency and range of her strikes.

She even used them to break through Pain's chakra rods. In addition, she's developed the Protection of the Eight Triagrams which allows her to weave an orb of interconnecting chakra threads which can then be used to protect against incoming attacks and pushed out for offensive purposes. She can also use the Vacuum Palm technique where the user precisely pinpoints the enemy's vital points with the Byakugan and releases a high-speed palm thrust which can blow a target off of their feet.

Hinata even has some training in healing jutsu as she's seen using the Mystical Palm technique. Though not as adept as Sakura, she is proficient enough to heal severe injuries. She also carries a healing ointment on her person that can accelerate a body's natural healing, though the effects vary from person to person.

Like Naruto who was instantly healed due to his own natural regenerative abilities. She was a shrieking violet at first, but soon grew a lot more bolder and assertive. Despite this, she's one of the more level-headed and observant shinobi and has nerves of steel to be able to stand up to Pain or stand on the front line against the Juubi. Seriously? She's beautiful, stacked, kind, gentle, assertive, protective, selfless and RICH. Why wouldn't Naruto pick her?

For what?

Reviving the Uzamaki Clan?

"Facepalms" Despite being a killing machine in close quarters and even being quite capable in mid-range combat, Hinata has no long-range capabilities to speak of. Furthermore, her byakugan's near-360 degree vision has one major blindspot at the upper thoracic vertebrae. In addition, her abilities rely on her byakugan to be active with eyes open, but should they be active for too long, she will go temporarily blind.

The latter issue isn't much of a problem though. As seen during the war, she was actually able to keep it active for longer than Neji without being strained. That said, she shouldn't have a problem as long as no shoots a long-range rocket at her.

You have those?

How do you think I died?

Oh.

Alright! The Combatants are set and the arena is ready! Let's end this pressing question once and for all. IT'S TIME FOR A DEATH BATTLE ROYALE!

Will there be fanservice?

"Stares" You're 50.

And still got it!

You're going back in the coffin.

No! Let me see boobies first!

Let me think about it.
