Note: It's the return of the Akatsuki from my first fanfic! A silly crossover but it will be interesting.

Chapter 1: It's here

"Shinra Tensei!"

That's how it all started.

Pain's loud cry echoed to the rooms of the hideout.

Awakened by Tobi's yelling, the blond Akatsuki sat up and watched the masked man tugging him to get up. "Deidara! Deidara! You have to see this! You have to see this!"

"See what?" His eyes were weary. "What's going on?" He got out from his bed but then being pulled by Tobi outside. As he was pulled by force, Deidara noticed all the doors were open and rooms empty. It looked like all the Akatsuki went out too.

Could it be another meeting?

It can't be. It's Tuesday.

"Where are you taking me, Tobi?"

"Outside!" Then Tobi pushed him to the light without any hesitation. He did not hesitate to think how powerful his push is. He just pushed him so hard that Deidara tripped and fell to the dirt. "Oops. Sorry." Tobi apologized.

Deidara dusted off the dirt from his hair and shirt and then turned to Tobi who just looking up after apologizing. "Hey! What are you looking at?" He turned to the sky and saw a large blue sphere approaching towards them. It's more larger than the moon. Maybe... more larger than the world. "Wha... what's that?"

Then they heard another cry, "SHINRA TENSEI!" And it followed by a powerful force shot out to the sky. Wave of dust flooded the forest.

From all the dirt, two men popped out from the dust cloud completely covered with dirt. It was Kakuzu and Itachi. Unusual to see those two together.

"Itachi! Where's Kisame?" Tobi asked.

"Kakuzu! Where's Hidan?" Deidara asked a similar question.

The Uchiha turned around and pointed at nothing but dirt flying in the air. Few seconds later, the dust cleared out and there they saw the others standing next to their leader; Pain. All of them went out still wearing their sleeping clothes. Sasori was there, wearing his pants and revealing his puppet body. Kisame and Hidan have their black shorts. And Zetsu... still the same. Konan and Pain, however, never change. There is no time the Akatsuki see them wearing something different. They still wear those black cloaks.

"What's going on?" Deidara asked Konan. He looked up to see the huge sphere heading towards them. It looked like another world with lands and oceans. "Do you have any explanation for this?"

She answered, "Not a clue. This thing just appeared from the sky."

"Like it popped out?"

"Yeah."

"SHINRA TENSEI!" Pain yelled and fired up his technique up into the sky. He's trying to push back the large planet. But it is no use. That thing continued to fall.

"This is the end!" Hidan said. "This is the end of the world!"

"Well, shit. It looks like we are not going to finish that duel." Kakuzu said to his rival Sasori.

The puppeteer gave him the look. "You are just making excuses. We all know that I'm good in-."

"Seriously, guys!" Deidara cannot believe his master. "You are still thinking about your duel than the end of the world!"

"REPENT! REPENT NOW!" Hidan shouted like a crazy man who keeps on exclaiming the end is nigh. "Repent before it's-."

Then there was a loud slap. Kakuzu made him shut up. "There's a way to stop this. Right, Pain?"

However, the leader of the Akastuki was still busy dealing with the incoming planet.

The members looked at each other and waited for someone to speak up and bring up a plan. Then a hand was raised. And of course, it came from the Uchiha. Itachi has some cool ideas. He can help them save the world.

Yeah. The Akatsuki are going to save the world.

"Any ideas, Itachi?" Deidara asked.

Itachi said and it will not be pretty. "I have a plan but we need something..."

"What is it?"

Later, at the Leaf Village, Lady Tsunade and the rest of the ANBU were surprised by the appearance of the Akatsuki. They just cannot believe those criminals just waltz in to the village and to the Hokage's office without starting a fight. Now they came here to ask something for them. "Um... say that again." The Hokage asked Itachi to repeat what he said one more time.

"We want to borrow Naruto." Itachi said.

"And why we are going to let you borrow him?'

Itachi answered. "Because his power can save us all."

Then his companion Deidara added, "We just need all the tailed-beasts to create a tailed-beast level technique."

"Yes. It's the only way." Itachi tried to make it clear.

"Is it?" Suddenly, Kakashi walked right in. "I have another way."

Tsunade asked, "Good. It could be better than letting them borrow Naruto."

The copy ninja suggested, "Why not we communicate the people from that planet and teamed up to fix this trouble."

Itachi doesn't trust the people from the other planet. "How are you sure they are going to cooperate?"

"We send a four-man squad to negotiate."

"Have you picked one yet?"

"Yes. But I need someone from the Akatsuki."

"SHINRA TENSEI!" Pain kept on yelling but his technique won't work against a moving planet. He calls himself god but he can't move just an inch of that planet. Could it be that his technique has a range limit? Or is he not powerful enough?

As he was busy throwing blows to it, the Akatsuki waited for Itachi and Deidara to return. While waiting, Kakuzu and Sasori continued their duel, Hidan stayed at his own altar praying and Tobi looking at the picture of Yugito Nii and her goodbye letter.

One of them doesn't feel comfortable waiting. He wants to do something about the planet. He looked up to the sky to see the descending world and on the left, he saw the moon visible during the day. Zetsu must act quickly or else the world will be destroyed. He must revive the goddess in the most risky way: Revealing his true objective to the Akatsuki.

First, he went to the religious Hidan and told him the truth.

Back to the Leaf Village...

"Why is this guy coming with you?" Naruto asked his sensei, can't stop pointing his finger at the Uchiha. "He's Sasuke's older brother who murdered the entire clan! Why do you want him in this squad?"

"Just listen to Kakashi, Naruto." Shikamaru said but his eyes looking at the two Akatsuki.

"As I was saying, this team will be-."

Naruto cut him off mid-sentence. "Whatever. I don't trust him."

"Anyway." Shikamaru said, "We have to go now. They have calculated that we have 24 hours left before that thing hits and possibly destroy our world." He opened his palm and saw the specialized clock ticking.

"Well, then." The blond Akatsuki Deidara created a large clay dragon for their ride. "Time to go."

Kakashi, Shikamaru and Itachi hopped on the artist's fine creation and lifted off. Naruto can't do anything but watch his friend and sensei going with two criminals towards the other world. He sighed. "I hope he's right about them.

Meanwhile, on the other world, the guards of the great and sweet kingdom spotted the four people entering their atmosphere. They went to inform their beloved ruler, a princess made of pink. However, she's absent. She's nowhere to be seen.

"What are we going to do now?" The guard asked the other.

He suggested, "Call the other kingdoms. Tell them it's happening again." Then he added, "And summon the Gumball Guardians!"
