"Director! We've got a problem!" one of the crew members shouted.
"This is it!" The director looked at the massive iceberg blocking their path in shock.
"I woke up this morning and found the way ahead completely blocked!" the crew member continued. "What do we do? Should we go around it?"
Suddenly, the director's eyes lit up with excitement.
"Yuki! That's it! Change the script! We're filming the next scene on this iceberg!!"
"WHAT?!"
A group of crew members and actors got off the ship and climbed to the top of the iceberg. Naruto and Fujikaze Yukie yawned as they stepped off the boat together.
"Hmph!" Yukie turned away from Naruto, crossing her arms as she walked.
"...Did you piss her off, Naruto?" Sakura asked, watching their interaction.
"I have no idea!" Naruto rubbed his eyes sleepily and yawned. "Maybe women just like to find reasons to be mad for a few days."
BAM!
Sakura's fist smashed into Naruto's skull.
"BAKA! You absolute idiot!" Sakura growled.

Meanwhile, On the Iceberg…
The director had already set up the scene and started shooting.
An old man with white hair laughed dramatically and began reciting his lines.
"Hahaha! Princess Gale, you've finally come! I have been waiting for this moment!"
Fujikaze Yukie, playing Princess Gale, along with two random actors playing her bodyguards, gasped in unison.
"You… you are… the Great Demon King!"
The old man pointed forward with exaggerated flair.
"Foolish insects! It doesn't matter how many of you come, you cannot stop me! HA!"
BOOM!
The iceberg behind him suddenly exploded.
"WOAH! These special effects are insane!" Naruto said in amazement.
"Special effects my ass!" Kakashi snapped. "That's an enemy attack! Protect Fujikaze Yukie!"
Suddenly, three figures in white cloaks stepped out of the explosion, revealing themselves as Yuki-nin.
The first one stood with his arms crossed and dramatically stuck out his ass. "Welcome to the Land of Snow!"
Team 7: "…"
Kakashi's eyes widened as he recognized them. "That's—!"
Before he could finish, another voice came from the side.
"Congratulations, Princess Koyuki. I wonder… do you have the Hexagonal Crystal with you?"
Everyone turned to see a lavender-haired kunoichi standing on top of an ice pillar.
At that moment, another Yuki-nin, this one burly and covered in armor, emerged from a nearby snowbank and laughed.
"Hahahaha! Kakashi, it's been a long time! I assume you'll be running away again, just like last time?"
Naruto raised an eyebrow. "Wait… Kakashi-sensei, you lost to this guy before?!"
"Shut the hell up, Naruto!" Kakashi snapped.
"Ice Release: Ice Dragon Technique!"
The burly Yuki-nin slammed his hands into the ground, summoning a massive dragon-shaped ice attack.
Kakashi quickly countered. "Water Style: Water Dragon Bullet Technique!"
The two jutsu clashed, sending ice shards flying everywhere.

Naruto vs. Sleet
Meanwhile, Naruto was facing off against Mizore Fubuki, the Yuki-nin using a snowboard.
Mizore charged at Naruto at high speed, using chakra to enhance his movement.
Sasuke threw several kunai at the incoming enemy, but they all shattered against Mizore's Chakra Armor.
"FIRE STYLE: GREAT FIREBALL TECHNIQUE!"
Sasuke released a massive fireball, forcing Fubuki to raise an ice wall for defense.
On the sidelines, Sakura… was doing absolutely nothing.
"MISS YUKIE! PLEASE GET BACK TO THE SHIP!" her manager, Sandayū Asama, shouted.
Yukie turned toward him with wide eyes, memories of her past flooding back. "San…dayū…"
WHOOSH!
Another enemy, Rouga Nadare, suddenly appeared and fired Ice Style: Ice Prison Technique!
A towering wall of ice shot up, cutting off Sasuke's path.
Sasuke immediately countered with another Great Fireball Technique, melting some of the ice but failing to stop it entirely.
Meanwhile, Mizore Fubuki moved at insane speeds, preparing a devastating punch with chakra-enhanced force.
Kakashi shouted, "Naruto! Look out!"
But before Mizore's fist could make contact, he was suddenly flung backward at an even greater speed.
Naruto blinked in confusion. "Uh… what just happened?"
Kakashi, in a rare moment of pettiness, redirected his Water Dragon Bullet straight into Mizore.

The Battle Continues
Despite being in an intense life-or-death fight, the film crew continued rolling their cameras.
"NO MATTER WHAT HAPPENS, KEEP FILMING!" the director shouted passionately. "LET THE WORLD SEE WHAT A REAL PHOTOGRAPHY CREW LOOKS LIKE!"
"OH!" the crew cheered, cameras still rolling.
Team 7: "CAN YOU GUYS RESPECT THE FACT THAT WE'RE IN A REAL FIGHT HERE?!"
---
Kakashi quickly explained, "Sasuke! These enemies are using Chakra Armor developed by the Land of Snow! It amplifies their chakra, strengthens their jutsu, and even creates a mobile chakra barrier to defend against attacks! It also neutralizes genjutsu and absorbs ninjutsu!"
Naruto sighed. "Alright, props to you for the detailed explanation, but I still think you're a dumbass."
"WHAT?!" Nadare snapped, enraged.
Naruto grinned. "I mean, who the hell monologues in the middle of a fight? Dumbass."
Nadare's face twitched in anger. "You brat…!"
"Ice Release: White Whale!"
A massive narwhal made of ice erupted from the glacier, charging toward Team 7.
Naruto, still standing lazily, slowly cracked his neck.
"You… are really pissing me off."
Naruto's Sharingan gleamed as he made a hand sign.
"ICE RELEASE: ICE DRAGON !"
A massive ice dragon identical to Nadare's appeared and slammed into the enemy's attack, shattering the white whale to pieces.
"WHAT?!" The Yuki-nin were all stunned. "HOW THE HELL DID HE JUST USE ICE RELEASE?!"
Sleet recovered from the shock and lunged at Naruto, throwing a devastating chakra-enhanced punch.
Naruto lazily caught it with one hand.
"You still don't get it, do you?" he said, smirking. "Fine. I'll show you what real strength looks like."
Naruto closed his eyes for a second before snapping them open.
"THE GATE OF HEALING… OPEN!"
In an instant, Naruto vanished and reappeared behind Sleet.
BOOM!
With one powerful kick, Naruto sent Sleet flying.
Then, as if nothing had happened, Naruto turned around, cupped Yukie's chin in his hand, and gave her a devilish smirk.
"Don't worry, beautiful. As long as I'm here, no one will lay a finger on you."
Yukie, still in shock from her resurfacing trauma, looked at Naruto, her breathing shaky.
Then she promptly passed out.
---
Suddenly, Mizore Fubuki fired a massive steel wire claw at Yukie.
Sakura, despite being mostly useless the entire time, somehow jumped in the way.
She got hit.
And instantly knocked out cold.
Kakashi's eyes widened. "SAKURA!"
As he rushed to help, Nadare raised his hand.
"Kakashi! Your opponent is ME!"
"Ice Release: Twin-Headed White Whale!"
Two massive narwhals erupted from the ice, surging toward Team 7.
Naruto stood up, rolling his shoulders.
"You… are really asking for a f*****g beating."
