Naruto: Rise To The Top

'Sarah, show me Hiroto's stats.' Ryuu wanted to check if Hiroto's strength had increased after he had absorbed the ninja's stats.

When Hiroto's stats came out, Ryuu was shocked because the person standing in front of him was much stronger than he had expected.

[Name: Hiroto Hagoromo

STR=Super Kage= 510

AGI=semi-Super Kage= 365

Chakra=One-tailed beast=11,312 ]

'Sarah, did his stats increase due to his absorption of ninja stats?' If so, this is really bad news. This means that if they don't kill him now, he will continue to increase his strength by absorbing the strength and chakra of other ninjas.

"His strength didn't increase even after he did that. It doesn't look like he's not absorbing it into his body, most likely he's storing it somewhere else." Sarah had been watching Hiroto's stats since the beginning and hadn't noticed any increase in his strength or chakra quantity.

"All of you back off, don't let him touch it, he can steal the strength and chakra from your body." Ryuu warned Jiraiya and Orochimaru who were planning the attack.

"It's his dojutsu ability." When Ryuu saw the questioning look on everyone's face, he explained to them why Hiroto was able to steal strength and chakra.

"I'm amazed that you could figure it out with just a look. This is the first time anyone has been able to discover my dojutsu ability." Hiroto looked at Ryuu in amazement, he didn't know how Ryuu could deduce his dojutsu ability, after all he only used it for ten seconds.

When Ryuu saw Hiroto looking at him inquisitively as if asking him to explain why he was able to deduce his ability, Ryuu smiled, "Do you expect me to tell you that? Unfortunately I won't."

After saying that, Ryuu immediately entered into Sage Mode.

Ryuu's hair turns silver, and Ryuu gains a silver chakra shroud that forms fox ears and nine tails. The color of the sclera turned yellow, and his iris turned into a shape resembling the iris of a fox, and he had fangs and claws.

He then activated the Eternal Mangekyu Sharingan and used his right eye ability to double his stats.

Ryuu no longer felt pain when using his right eye ability since the Sage body had been completed to 85%, and he can also use this ability for a much longer period.

[Name: Ryuu

STR= kage (High)= 217

AGI=kage (Mid)=189

Chakra=Five-tailed beast =50,963]

[Name: Ryuu

+125%

STR= semi-Super Kage= 488

AGI=semi-Super Kage= 425

Chakra=Five-tailed beast =50,963]

Despite all this, Ryuu is still weaker than Hiroto, but his speed can be considered greater than Hiroto.

But physical strength and agility don't matter, what really matters are the skills and techniques the two use for example Ryuu with the help of the Flying Thunder God Technique, his speed can be considered unparalleled in the ninja world.

"I only want Tsunade, Jiraiya, and Orochimaru to stay to support me, the rest of you back off." Ryuu looked at Kushina, Mikoto, and Hikari, and of course he was referring to Minato and Nawaki as well.

The girls had never seen Ryuu use his full strength before, what he did now proves that the situation is very serious and the weak have to retreat because they are useless in fighting the strong, so the girls didn't object to Ryuu's decision.

"We are ninjas too. We will fight with you." Nawaki objects to Ryuu's decision, but Ryuu doesn't talk to him or try to convince him. He just looks into his eyes and puts him to sleep using genjutsu.

"Don't worry, he'll wake up in a minute." When Ryuu saw the worried look on Tsunade's face, he calmed her down and then looked at Minato, "Take him out of here."

Minato nodded, then picked up Nawaki and ran away with the girls.

Hiroto tried to stop the girls and Minato from retreating, but Ryuu blocked his way. "You hate me and want to kill me, right? Then you should focus on fighting me only and don't get distracted by people who have nothing to do with it."

"You're wrong, you like those girls, don't you? It would be fun to see your facial expressions when I kill them in front of you." Hiroto smiled sarcastically when he heard what Ryuu had to say and then quickly moved towards trying to engage him in Taijutsu.

Ryuu definitely didn't try to get away from Hiroto because if he did, Hiroto would go towards the girls. But Ryuu will also not clash with him in Taijutsu because he will steal his strength and chakra.

Ryuu used his Rasengan in his hand and pointed it towards Hiroto who approached him. The Rasengan began to expand and became 5m in diameter in moments.

"Sage Art Fire Release : Cho Cho Odama Rasengan."

The size of this Rasengan is really big, it is about the size of a room and its color is yellowish orange, and it emits very high heat. One thing is for sure, anyone hit by this technique will be vaporized into nothingness as if they were hit by a Dust Release.

Hiroto didn't have any technique to block this Rasengan and also he is very close and can't dodge in time, so he quickly opened his other eye and raised his hand towards the Rasengan.

"Shinra Tensei"

Hiroto creates a repulsion force which he uses to push everything in front of him away with great force including the Rasengan and Ryuu.

Ryuu use the Flying Thunder God Technique to move away from the area affected by Shinra Tensei.

The giant Rasengan flew away and fell into the jungle, making a big hole. Everything in its path burned and turned to dust very quickly.

Ryuu recognized this technique but didn't want to believe that Hiroto had a Rinnegan, but when Ryuu looked into Hiroto's left eye, he saw that it was characterised by concentric circles covering the eyeball.

"How did you get this Rinnegan?" Ryuu frowned, knowing that this was one of Madara's eyes but he didn't know how Hiroto got it.

'Is it the reason why Nagato disappeared? Or is he working with Black Zetsu?'
