Naruto's ready to go through Kiba to become Hokage, and Kiba's ready to let him try. He calls Naruto pesky, and welcome to Sakura's world, kid. Here's your passport. They Fang over Fang Naruto again, but he's ready for it this time and misses. They don't seem terribly bothered, throwing down a smoke bomb and Fang Over Fanging Naruto a third time. Naruto says he's got a lot left, thanks Kiba. The Canine Brothers smoke bomb before hitting their tandem offense again, and Naruto's trapped by Kiba's assault, then it comes to Naruto. TRANSFORMATION! Into Kiba. Nice! But it doesn't work quite as good as it ought, Kiba smells like a dog and smells like a dog. So why did the Kiba he just knock out turn out to be Akamaru? Kiba batters the other Kiba down, and it's Akamaru, too! HAH! Kiba loses the prank war and greets Naruto's foot with his chest. Nobody knows where Naruto got so smart. He quotes Kakashi at Kiba to my delight.
Kiba's not done yet, and bites down on his hand hard enough to draw blood. Kiba thinks he's still go it sorted - Naruto can't read his speed and if Kiba remains calm, he's got it. Naruto picks this time to show off his new technique, which Kiba disrupts by hurling Shuriken at Naruto, then All-Fours Naruto across the floor with two solid hits. Squad Eight's wolfboy is still too fast for Naruto, and goes for a diving claw-rake which Naruto catches and turns into a shoulder-throw. Sweet. Our hero tries to fire up his Chakra again as Kiba goes for another diving rake, but Naruto ducks most of it. A second blow sends Naruto sprawling. Naruto slowly pushes himself back up, running on sheer thickheaded-ness rather than stamina at this point. Squad Ten's impressed, and everybody's calling for them to finish it.
Naruto tries to rile Kiba, but it doesn't work - Kiba darts around Naruto going for a rear attack... and gets a rear attack from Naruto. As in 'breaking wind.' As in 'right in Kiba's face.' I perform the fabled technique of falling out of my chair laughing. Kiba's in agony, the super-sense of smell working way against him in this case. Seeing his chance, and vowing not to strain so hard in the future, Naruto breaks off the Shadow Clone Jutsu. They go for some awesome combo moves, battering him around and then up into the air. Naruto Barrage! It's a funky combination of the Shadow Clone Jutsu mixed with Sasuke's Lion Barrage. "For the record, the name is a rip off, too." Hayate moves in to check Kiba, and the potent canine/far smell isn't going to do anything for his cough. As he comes back upstairs, Hinata just barely is able to say Naruto's name, and she adorably (and very shyly) offers Naruto some ointment. Kurenai has to prod Naruto taking it, so he's still got the knucklehead thing going for him. Hinata's interest ticks off Neji, who calls her 'Lady Hinata' and looks really mad. Yikes.
Next Episode: Hinata vs. Neji! Poor Hinata.
