A bit short, but this mainly focuses on Crimson. Enjoy!

His friends cheered, but they all knew it wasn't finished it. Naruto frowned and picked up the black chakra receiver from tendo. He closed his eyes, trying to sense out the location of the puppet master. He saw a forest, and a giant tree.

Naruto's eyes shot open. "Everyone, we're not done yet. We still need to deal with the puppet master." Naruto turned to Azure. "Azure-chan, can I trust you to keep Hinata-chan safe?"

The medic-nin nodded. "You can count on me Naruto-kun."

Naruto nodded and looked at his four other comrades. "Come, let's go."

And all of them blurred, disappearing from the large crater. Azure frowned and focused even further on Hinata, before another pair of hands hovered over Hinata. Azure looked in front of her, seeing Sakura. She looked around, seeing various medic-nins scouring over for the injured.

Back with the five. Naruto ran very fast, with the intent of confronting the puppet masters. But a cloud of smoke blinded their vision, making them stop. Breeze slammed her fan, *ing the smoke away, revealing.

"Puppets. Taijutsu Puppets." Crimson was the one who spoke that. He stepped forward and cracked his knuckles. "You guys go on ahead. I'll take care of this."

The four nodded and jumped on a tree branch and on to the other side. The Taijutsu Puppets looked at the glowing Crimson. The dark skinned super strength Taijutsu expert smirked and disappeared in a blur, reappearing behind a puppet. He slammed his fist on their back, sending it flying onto a tree.

Crimson grinned and clapped his hand, causing multiple boulders to cover him, before he broke it, showing him being covered in an earthen skin. "COME AT ME!"

And they did. Taijutsu Puppets charged forward, preparing to kill Crimson. Crimson smirked and spin kicked one of the puppets, before he turned into a kicking tonrado, drawing in some puppets.

"Konoha Gōriki Senpū!"

Dozens of puppets were slammed to the ground, before shattering to dust. Crimson kicked on of them into the air and constricted it. He began to spin down, onto multiple more Taijutsu Puppets. "Ura Renge!"

The two of them slammed into the ground and crashed against some of the puppets, shattering them. Crimson jumped up and slammed his fist into one of the puppets, plunging his hand into its chest.

He lifted it up and threw it to the side. One of the puppets slammed its fist against Crimson , but it proved ineffective, as its arm shattered. Crimson smirked and grabbed its head and crushed it like a g*. He threw the body aside and slammed the ground, creating a large shockwave that sent the puppets down.

Crimson's smirk didn't leave his lips, but he immediately recoiled and flinched. He fell on his knees, finally feeling the effects of the gates' drawback. The puppets took advantage and began surrounding Crimson.

They all began spin-kicking him around, tossing Crimson like a tennis ball or pong. Crimson was met with kick after kick, either on the back, the chest, or the head. One of the puppets kicked him up into the air, where several more puppets waited for him. The puppets' fists were covered in fire as they all punched as one, making it looking like a long trail of blaze slammed against Crimson.

"ARGH!"

Crimson's body smashed against the soft ground, easily creating a crater. The orangenette shakily sat up and tried to stand. The puppets didn't give him room to breathe as they resumed their attack. One of them punched him in the face, sending him into a kick, sending him to an uppercut, sending him to a knee to the gut, sending him to a backhand, and finally sending him into a strong dropkick to the head.

Crimson writhed around, as the puppets slammed their foot against his back, surely cracking his body. Crimson shrieked out in pain as the gates' drawback still hurt him.

"I need to think of something quick...I'm not gonna last much longer than I thought."

Crimson howled out loudly and released a strong aura that blew the puppets away. He crossed his fingers, forming five Shadow Clones. All six of them grabbed a puppet and ripped of their bandages, showing a withering corpse underneath. They all kicked two puppets each in the air. The Crimsons smirked and jumped after them. They grabbed the ripped bandages and covered the puppets into the air and grabbed them.

"Omoto Renge!"

They all began dropping down at top speed and they pile drived the restrained puppets into more puppets on the ground. The Crimsons once more kicked another puppet into the air and began pummeling them with series of kicks and punches.

"Ura Renge!"

One last palm stirke disintegrated the puppets, the ashes falling on the ground. "Alright, just a few dozen more and this'll be over!" Their arms started to be covered by an earthen layer, before they slammed it down on some of the remaining puppets.

The Crimsons nodded at each other and paired up.

"Double Dynamic Entry!"

They jumped up and sent a high-speed flying kick to several puppets and disintegrated them. The Crimson clones finally dispelled, making Crimson recoil at the strain the clones felt. Crimson panted, but smirked.

There was only one puppet left and he walked towards it. The lone puppet noticed that it was all alone and fearfully began backing into a tree. Crimson grabbed it by the head and he slammed it around the ground and pierced its chest. He picked it back up and curshed its head, completely disintegrating the puppet.

Crimson smiled and fell on the ground, completely exhausted, and felt some of his bones cracked. Crimson cracked a grin and chuckled out, before he felt himself drift into unconsciousness. But before he could fully close his eyes, he heard the shouts of a certain someone.

"Crimson-senpai! Do not let your Flames of Youth diminsh! We shall take you to the medics!"

"Lee-kouhai? Gai-sensei's team is here?"

But he wasn't able to question it as he closed his eyes, and slumbered.
