I do not own Naruto Check out my stories on fiction press ancient sniper if you could.
Naruto fell down, he saw Sakura run over to Sasuke who had fallen down after a short amount of time, and to him everything faded to black even the Kyuubi's whispers in his ears started to fade as his world changed to black.
Mean while a ghost heard a thump, and he turned hearing the thump of another dead body his name Zale, although his hope was small he decided that seeing another dead body wasn't going to do anything to him.
'Look at that the kid's teammates are abandoning him, you don't see that too often usually they prefer to die together or forcefully die.' Zale thought walking over or more like hovering, and what he found shocked him. 'It's perfect, sure a little short, but the body, potential, although this wouldn't be my first choice he's the first in over a thousand years to have the potential to use manipulation, but even I have to follow the rules.'
Zale picked up the wrist of the body it was cold, and he couldn't feel any spirits rolling around in there, if he looked up he could see the boy's spirit fading from this world onto the next something that he refused to do.
Slowly as if moving too quickly would make the body disappear he pulled his forehead to the forehead of the hollow husk of a body. From the pit of the body shone a bright light that showed through the mouth and eyes as a new spirit moved into the previous body.
"Yes, yes, I walk the earth once again!" Zale said his back arching as he rose as if being held up by strings slowly going to his feet. 'Examine the memories, I have to know what's going on I don't want to end up dead once I barely came back to life. Okay so ninja now, I didn't expect that, These Chunin exams, and I fought the lord Orochimaru guy.'
"Who are you, and why am I still alive. According to the seal I should have died when the kit did." A deep menacing growling voice said in the back of his head. "What is happening the, mindscape is altering, and so are the powers that are in here."
'So that must mean that you're the Kyuubi huh well I guess I could have done worse for a new body.' Zale thought falling onto his back getting used to having a body once again it felt odd getting to actually touch things despite those things being dirt.
Getting frustrated at being ignored the Kyuubi forced the boy into the mindscape of who she no longer knew, but it certainly wasn't Naruto's anymore. Who she saw despite looking like Naruto was not Naruto the feel of him was not his, she had been with Naruto for thirteen years and this boy was not like Naruto.
"Don't ignore me boy, do you know who you are talking to. No matter how you took the body of the host it does not matter I command you to release me." Kyuubi growled out viciously, and to her surprise he started laughing a maniacal laugh that made Kyuubi wonder about the boy's sanity. "You dare to laugh at my presence boy, I have had villages cowering at my feet, the strongest of ninja reduced to tears at the mere sight of me coming in their general direction."
"You obviously don't know who you are talking to." Zale said walking toward the cage his arms swinging at his sides his eyes shaded by Naruto's hair, and Kyuubi watched the boy walk toward her cage something about him was off. "You should bow down before me I am Zale the mightiest manipulator to ever exist. Your power has no chance against mine, I can make something out of nothing, I can bend the reality of space and time, to me there are no limits."
"And you, you're the ultimate power house if I were to manipulate your power into mine then nothing could stop me, imagine that I could bring entire nations to their knees, reduce the mightiest of ninja to tears as you put it. To think to gain all that power all I have to do is will it to be, the great and mighty Kyuubi would be gone me with all the power."
Kyuubi watched him as he finally got to her she couldn't believe it she felt fear actual fear from this pitiful creature. He grabbed her nose, and she was almost praying to her sister the death god to not let this be the end, she didn't want to let all these years of gaining power go to waste at the hands of a little human.
"Of course if I took your power I wouldn't be strong I would just be relying on someone else's power to get me through so I'll keep you around. Of course I'll need to give you some kind of form on the outer world or else you'll be just an annoying conscious in the back of my head." Zale said looking at the Kyuubi who stayed silent is seemed like the boy wasn't going to kill her.
"You can use this manipulation ability to move me out?" Kyuubi asked.
"Not all that, but I can create a body as well as transfer your consciousness into said body, once I do that you'll naturally begin to regain your demonic chakra." Zale said forcing himself out of the mindscape where he woke up to see a giant tiger. "Oh a fight, this will be so fun."
The tiger took the first hit with Zale's shoulder blowing into his side. It roared out loudly as Zale smiled his insane smile before charging again. It hit him second its paws moving faster than he could react with Naruto's body, and a claw grazed his cheek.
"ROAR!" It growled out once again turning on its hind paws moving lightning fast, and Zale ducked down from the second paw, but he forgot about its tail.
"Damn, you're not going to take the life I've waited so long to gain." Zale said from his position on the floor the tiger's tail wrapped firmly around his leg keeping him from standing. "Focus, there's nothing that panicking will do for me. Manipulation!"
The tiger roared back as its tail began to peel itself the fur, the skin, the flesh, leaving only the bone, and this preceded until all that was left of the thing was a few piles of different parts of its body, as well as the skeleton with the organs in it. 'So how is this new body thing going to work?" Kyuubi asked curious as to how this manipulation ability worked.
"Well I haven't been able to use it in a while, but this body will do well as a base." Zale said his hands glowing red, his eyes turning a bright purple as he used manipulation.
Kyuubi could feel her consciousness leave the body as a hollow husk, and she could feel herself being put into a body that felt oddly feminine she had more than expected an animal body. "This feels odd." she said incredibly surprised to find that her voice was no longer had an angry malice to it, instead it was a soft tone, high pitch voice, had a rather joyful shrill to it.
"Yes I haven't been alive for years, having this body is more than difficult to control. Now according to my memories or those of the boy the others have run off, and without any scrolls either. The only thing that we're going to be able to do as of now is get some scrolls, and then head to the tower." Zale said.
"How do you plan on doing that?" Kyuubi asked and he turned to look at her with his bright purple eyes. "You expect me to do it, I'm a lady aren't you humans supposed to take care of a lady? Wait what are you doing with that ninja wire, no get away, NOOOOOO!"
Random Team
"Hey did anyone hear that?" the self proclaimed leader of the group said, and the three boys turned direction hoping to find a team with a heaven scroll. What they found was much better than what any of the boys would have hopped. It was a hot girl wrapped in ninja wire, her private areas almost there. "Let's have some fun shall we?"
"Oh no, that's not going to happen." a voice that came from seemingly in their heads said causing them all to look around trying to find where the voice came from. "There's no point in looking, I am not only your greatest fear, but something you cannot fight, MANIPULATION!"
Suddenly from the ground rose dozens of spears formed of nothing less than sand which formed into razor sharp points that quickly impaled them, it was only then that they noticed the bodies of the three other bodies as well as the boy who smiled maniacally. "AH!" they screamed as they were hit from all sides.
"I hate you, you know that?" Kyuubi said struggling in the ninja wire, he had left her in a more than suggestive way. "What kind of plan is this?"
"I have the scrolls don't I?" Zale asked untying her and rewrapping the ninja wire. "How much time do we have left?"
"Two days, five hours, twenty six minutes, and twenty four seconds." Kyuubi immediately said her inner sense of time never failing her even in that prison for years. "What are you going to do?"
"I have to harness my manipulation ability, thanks to your influence it was able to form and thrive, but it remained unused therefore not nearly as strong as it could be. I have two days in one day I should be able to strengthen it to the point where I can use it freely without some kind of trap to keep my enemies in place." Zale said raising his hand and out of the ground rose pieces of metal that quickly formed into kunai that he in turn forced to fly at the tree. "That will be so much more deadly than it is now when I am able to make it out off any little material."
"So what is your plan any way, you look like a take over the world kind of type." she said.
"No, not at all. I want to bring peace to the world no matter what it takes, when the world is at peace I can rest at peace, and no matter who I have to kill, how many villages I have to burn, or if I have to watch whole continents burn then so be it as long as I have can have the world at peace." Zale said with a maniacal laugh and Kyuubi was surprised at this, you didn't expect this from a person that looked so incredibly insane. "That last part emperor Uzumaki sounds nice doesn't it?"
"Why not use your own name?" Kyuubi asked.
"Because, emperor Uzumaki just sounds so much better than Emperor Zale." Zale said pushing out with his hand and it broke down a huge tree. "It keeps getting stronger; soon there will be nothing to stand against me to bring peace to this earth."
"You're right that does sound good, but you know what sounds even better?" Kyuubi asked him seductively breathing into his ear.
"What?" Zale asked.
"Emperor Zale Uzumaki, and empress Kurumi Uzumaki."
"You are really quite the go getter aren't you?" Zale asked with a chuckle.
"That's right, that's who I am." she said happily.
Two Days Later
"Where's the dope?" Sasuke asked looking around, neither of them could go inside without him, and they thought he had the scrolls covered so there was no reason to collect any and risk their lives any further. "I bet he died in the forest."
"Oh Sasuke kun you're so cool, after this do you want to." Sakura asked, but she was cut off.
"No." Sasuke said still scanning the forest line, and finally he saw Naruto walking along. He seemed to be in better shape than they were, and at his side was a girl with tan skin, long red hair, shining red eyes, ruby red lips, pants hung loosely from her hour glass figure, a mesh shirt that much like Anko's didn't covered much of her. "Dope what took you so long?"
"You baka, what the heck took you so long?" Sakura asked sending a punch his way, and to her surprise it went right through him.
"Touch me and you die Haruno." 'Naruto' growled out at her and she was scared.
She then looked from 'Naruto' to the good looking young girl at his hip. "Who are you?" she asked trying to salvage her shame.
"Hmph." she said turning away as 'Naruto' walked with her inside with his hand on her hip leaving the fuming Sakura and Sasuke behind him.
"Hey guys." Iruka said poofing out of the scrolls once they were laid down. "Naruto whose the girl?"
"I'm his girlfriend." she said in a seductive manner.
With Hinata
"I feel like something bad just happened." Hinata said looking up from her book on medical justu.
With 'Naruto'
"Kids not even fourteen and he already has a hotter girl than I ever had." Iruka said anime tears streaming down his face as he looked at the sight. He then proceeded to explain about the heaven and earth, and how they had an hour to do what they wished before they had to fight so enjoy it.
Everything is the same as it was in the cannon.
"Next match *cough cough* will be *cough cough* Naruto Uzumaki against Kiba Inuzuka. Will the two competitors please come down to the arena.
"Alright Akamaru looks like we get a free bee." Kiba said.
"Oh I'm going to enjoy this." 'Naruto' said cracking his knuckles.
