NOVEL NEXT WORLD Chapter 38: Chapter 40
With no other choice, Riser brought out his flaming wings and used it to shield himself from the dangerous weapon. Flashing again, Naruto had appeared in front of Riser and punched him, his hand going the flaming wings and directly into his stomach.
"GAah!" The punch was no normal punch, it had enough force to create a hold in his stomach if not for his healing ability. Naruto pulled his burned hand back and saw a magic circle appear beneath him. Before Yubelluna could activate her magic, Naruto jumped high into the sky and avoided the large explosion.
Deciding to show 'The Bomb Queen' the true power of fire, Naruto decided to use the fire abilities he had learned two years ago when he saw a dragon breath fire, an idea appeared in his head at the time and the next thing he knew when he tested the the idea, he could breath fire just like a dragon.
Breathing in deeply, Naruto put a hand in front of his mouth and yelled out, "Katon: Gokakyuu no Jutsu!" and breathed out a giant fire ball, which headed straight towards the Bomb Queen. She put her staff forward and created a fire ball that was nowhere near Naruto's with her own magic.
Before the fire balls could connect, Riser got back up and uses his own Phoenix's fire ball and threw it at Naruto's making the two fire balls disappear after colliding together in an amazing show of power. Naruto smirked, fire really was the element of the Phenex clan, he turned his head to Ravel who had her wings out but didn't attack Naruto. Naruto wandered why as she was the only one at the moment who could land a hit on Naruto considered the position she was in. In fact, Naruto was pretty surprised when Ravel had agreed to become a Bishop for her brother's peerage.
Naruto landed on the ground with a light step, his right arm burned badly, the flame of Phoenix actually being stronger than any other flame out there. He could hear his childhood friend shouting for him to stop, his right arm was completely useless because of the burn now and she don't want him to fight any longer.
Rias looked at Naruto's right arm in worry, she didn't know why he punched through Riser's wings like that when he could have attacked Riser with a better way. Blood was dripping to the ground and she could smell burnt flesh even from here.
Ravel looked at his right arm and felt a feeling of pain inside her heart. If he used her tears right now. He could heal it and continue to fight for Rias but then the devils would know about the connection between them and it would become a mess. She really didn't want gossip right now. If she was honest with herself however, that was only part the reason Ravel did not attack him or more like couldn't attack him.
Riser smirked at the sight of Naruto's burnt arm and shouted victoriously,
"So what are you going to do now Uzumaki? You only have one arm to fight with now!" He laugh along side his peerage with the exception of Ravel, she really wanted him to use her tears right now, no matter the consequences. Ravel could see that her mother's gaze was directly at her and easily understood what her mother's meaning.
"Naruto-sama please..." She began, drawing a lot of attention from both the spectators and her brother's remaining peerage. Naruto on the other hand, just held up his good arm and stopped her.
"No need to worry Ravel-chan." Naruto smiled kindly at her before returning his eyes to Riser, who was astonished when Naruto's right hand began to heal at a rapid pace, "The Phenex Clan aren't the only ones who have the power of healing." He finished and brought his right arm up to reveal it completely healed with not a single scar or even scratch.
'Thank you my friends!' He thought with a smile.
"Impossible!" Riser screamed in disbelief, as did the spectators except for the three Maou.
"Well then, now that the problem is solved, prepare for the beating of a lifetime, dattebayo!" Naruto said with his catchphrase at the end, making all the girls in the stadium coo excitedly. The young boy was not only handsome, attractive, gentle, kind and incredible strong, he is now also revealed as having a really cute side.
Isabela and Xuelan, Riser's Rooks, were the first ones to react, charging at Naruto with their fists ready. The two sent a barrage of punches and kicks at Naruto which Naruto avoided just like with the Pawns, dancing around their attacks with seemingly effortless grace. It was almost as if he was dancing to a beautiful song instead of being engaged by two opponents in fierce hand-to-hand combat. Isabela and Xuelan began to feel the pressure of facing a member of Sirzechs Lucifer's peerage.
Suddenly, Naruto caught their wrist and smirked.
Koneko slowly felt a familiar feeling in Naruto.
Naruto released the two Rooks, which they took the chance to try and quickly jump back to make distance with Naruto. The blond was far faster however and went to punch Isabela right in the face. She tilted her head and Naruto's punch hit the air harmlessly. The audience, especially Rias's group all groaned in disappointment. Xuelan smirked, maybe he wasn't as good in hand-to-hand combat as he was in using those strange kunai of his. The Chinese girl prepared to aid her comrades but then she heard a loud smacking sound and widened her eyes.
Isabela was hit on the face, the strength behind the punch being so strong that it knocked the mask from her face and the girl fell to the ground while wandering what just happened.
"What...what just happened? I thought Naruto-senpai missed her?" Issei asked the question everyone was thinking, it was clear that Naruto had missed her but something had the right side of her face and they saw nothing.
"Senjutsu!" Koneko looked at Naruto and explained to everyone with her voice still monotone, she could felt it hit that Rook's face but it was different than the Neko-ken she learned from her sister long ago.
