"Yo Yuki! Glad to see you made it!"
Both of them turned to see the blond teen himself with a silly grin. Yuki acknowledged the clone with a nod.
"Naruto? Why didn't you intercept the bullet just now?" Yuki asked with curiousity, he should have been fast enough for it. Naruto just shrugged his shoulders in response and stated plainly.
"Because you had it. If you weren't there then I would have got it myself though." Naruto said with a grin.
"Ehhhh? So the entire time I was never in any danger!?" Issei exclaimed in shock, what the hell Naruto!
In response Naruto just deadpanned at the brown-haired teen. "Of course not, no one is ever in danger when I say that I'm protecting them!" Naruto exclaimed with passion.
This just caused Issei to sweatdrop in return.
"...But you never said you were going to protect me..."
"Oi! You stupid bitch! What the fuck are you doing interrupting my kill eh!?"
Everyone turned to face the insane priest with his tongue out disgustingly. Yuki just regarded him coolly for a second before ignoring him and turning back to Naruto.
"Naruto, please disperse yourself and alert the real Naruto that I'm here. I can deal with the priests without trouble." Yuki stated simply. The clone glanced at Yuki for a second before nodding.
"Alright, I'm counting on you Yuki!" the clone exclaimed before it dispersed it's chakra and exploded into a plume of smoke.
Issei glanced nervously at the teen, now his life was in this stranger's hands...what if she wasn't as trustworthy as Naruto?
"Hyoudou-san."
Issei immediately straightened up at the sound of the young woman's voice.
"Ye-yes ma'am?" Issei stuttered slightly.
"Go." the bluenette said without missing a beat.
Issei just looked at her with a confused expression, what did she mean?
"Hyoudou-san. You wish to save your friend right? Then go and help her...I can deal with these people without issue. The only problem we have is time and we have no idea how much time your friend has left...so go." Yuki said seriously, there was no way there were any more enemies to face down there. If there were, then they were most likely focused on whatever it was that they were doing.
That would be the only reason that fallen angels would use their human 'priests' to protect them. Their pride wouldn't allow them to be protected by beings many believe to be inferior to them. Not unless they didn't have a choice.
Thus, the way was undoubtedly clear.
Issei widened his eyes. "Right! Asia! Hold on! I'm coming!" Issei called out while heading towards the still opened stairway to the basement.
But before he could reach it...
"Stop ignoring me you bitches!"
The foul-mouthed priest from before appeared right in from of him with his light sword in mid-swing towards Issei's head.
*CLANG*
Issei ignored the priest in favor of reaching the stairway...besides...he knew that the teenaged girl has got it covered.
Said girl in question intercepted the priests swing with her own blade and grabbed the priest by the collar.
"...Sorry. But your fight is with me...!" Yuki exclaimed while swinging the now flailing priest towards his brethren. Smashing them to make a heap of human bodies.
Sakuya hummed in Yuki's hands as she set herself up to deal with the fallen-aligned humans as quickly as possible.
Vretiel was glaring down at the battlefield. She did not expect these turn of events when she ordered her subordinates to come with her and destroy a single intruder!
She was watching two copies of the human run toward a fallen angel with two pairs of wings and their arms raised up together to cross with one another. Before the fallen could move out of the way, the blonds smashed their crossed arms against the fallen's neck.
Their combined weight conspired to leave the fallen breathless and then...
""SMASH!""
The twins used the force from their psuedo-clothesline to swing the fallen into the ground with tremendous force. The crater that emerged from the smashed fallen was s couple feet deep.
Vretiel just gnashed her teeth as she couldn't help but notice that several fallen angels were in a similar state as that one.
This wasn't a battle...this was a thorough slaughter.
Although interestingly enough, she noticed that none of the fallen were actually dead...just unconscious.
So the human was soft? Bad mistake.
She swooped down towards the two copies in order to destroy them quickly, but it seemed that they noticed her presence before she could finish them. They quickly formed together, with one holding his hand and the other seemingly grabbing the air around it repeatedly.
The fallen leader just raised her eyebrow at this, what were they up to?
She found out soon enough.
A blue...seemingly miniature hurricane was contained in a small sphere in that copy's hand. She held her light spear high in the air as she meant to throw it at the pair before they could use their attack.
What she didn't expect was for the other copy to throw the clone with the sphere towards her!
Although thinking back on it...she probably should have.
"Rasengan!"
Before the sphere impacted her however, she managed to use her light spear to form a defense for her stomach.
Then the sphere reached her spear.
She immediately gritted her teeth as the sphere began to push her back and much to her horror...seemingly disintegrate the area where the rasengan was touching! There was no way that little ball could have the power to cut through her spear!
Then she realized her error.
The spear of light was fashioned after the real spears used by ancient humans and just like the real spear...the true power of the weapon was the tip. The handle was meant to reinforce the tip with power to increase explosive and piercing damage.
Whereas the sphere was meant for a different kind of damage. The initial power of this attack may not have been strong enough to destroy her light spear when in a face-to-face confrontation...
But if it was allowed the time to continue pushing through without facing the power of her light spear head on?
The little hurricane wasn't just for show...it was grinding through her attack!
Constant friction was whittling the strength of the attack down until it was weakened enough to break through!
She held firm though, while the constant grinding must have been destroying the spear...at least she could weaken the sphere as well!
As she feared...the spear broke against the rasengan's power.
But her hopes were dashed...the little sphere wasn't any weaker by the time it reached her.
So the attack was self-perpetuating?
Damn it.
When it hit her stomach, it felt like someone had placed a grinder on it. The horrible twisting and turning was ripping through her skin!
But finally, the compressed energy exploded and sent her spiraling backwards against several trees in the area.
It said something that she was thankful that the explosion happened. Anything to get away from that horrible sensation.
But all that happened because she was caught off guard.
Now she knew...
"...Now...now I know that I definitely can't let you live!" Vretiel shouted, her rage beginning to cloud her judgement. But for now, she was sane enough to jump high in the air before they could continue their attack.
She formed two light spears with each holding two rings around them and then threw them before they could finish making another rasengan.
