Now to answer some questions.
Lightningblade49: yes Jiraiya can use sage mode without the toads, although I wouldn't call it perfect sage mode.
Bankai777: Obviously, that will make for fun times indeed.

Hey, guys I was wondering is anyone wanted to see a Persona 3 story? If so, just let me know, I recently finished playing it and loved it, although I though some parts were rather anti-climatic so I was hoping to write a story, I was going to do the story after I had finished one of my already started however if anyone might want it started sooner, let me know, kk? Alright then, the disclaimer today is: FUCK THE LAW, I DON'T HAVE ANY MONEY.
Chapter 2: Rescue Fu!
THIS IS A LINE...FUCKING TOADS
Naruto was inside the Hokage's tower, Tsunade situated in her seat with Shizune standing next to her.
"Naruto, since I have reason to believe you are ready, for the duration of this mission, you will be in charge" explained Tsunade as Naruto jaw seemed to have stopped working.
Tsunade smirked despite the urgent situation "Therefore, you will have to pick two teammates to assist you in this mission, name your team and I shall gather, once gathered I will explain the exact details for this job" Naruto nodded in understanding.
He thought about the two teammates he would need for this urgent request for aid.
"I request that Kotetsu Hagane and Izumo Kamizuki be brought here for this mission" Naruto stated clearly and professionally.
If Tsunade was surprised she didn't show it, instead she ordered an anbu to send for the two chunin's.
Not a minute later did the two requested chunin arrive, confused and alert.
"Chunin's Kotetsu Hagane and Izumo Kamizuki, you two have been requested the mission leader Naruto Uzumaki, for an A-rank mission involving Takigakure's Jinchuriki Fu, Akatsuki has captured her and Takigakure is asking for any aid we may send, Naruto has asked that he be sent, being a Jinchuriki himself, so it's only natural I appoint him the leader. Any questions?"
Kotetsu spoke up with "Hokage-samma, not to be rude but why are us two here?"
"You'll have to ask Naruto, the kids mind works in strange ways"
"Alright, that's enough of that. Oba-chan, do we have permission to set off?" inquired Naruto.
Tsunade groaned at the nick-name and nodded "very well, as of now, your in charge Naruto, do this village proud and rescue that Kunoichi"
"HAI" was the three replies as they shunshined out of the office leaving both Tsunade and Shizune.
Shizune smiled and looked towards her master "he's really grown, has he not Tsunade-samma, he's like Dan?" her answer was a smile from Tsunade and one tear dropping from her right eye. Yes... Defiantly like Dan.
THIS IS A LINE... FUCKING TOADS
Team Naruto had now just exited the gate and were travelling through the trees to reach their destination quicker.
"Eh, Naruto-san, can I ask a question?" the curious Kotetsu asked of his young team leader.
"You already did Kotetsu-san, however if it pleases you just call me Naruto, I may have matured but that doesn't mean you have to address me so"
"Ah. Very well Naruto. Now my question may seem random but why did you request both me and Izumo for this mission, I'm sure there are other more competent shinobi that you could have asked for".
"The reasons simple, I know that you two will obey my orders"
"... I don't understand" Izumo now piped in.
Naruto sighed "well you see, to many people I am a demon because of my burden, other people see me as a young and brash fool... these people are many and I couldn't risk bringing any of them, so I settled for bringing you two, both of you are dependable and capable ninja who will follow my orders and not think me a fool or demon"
Izumo and Kotetsu's eyes were wide, and as they jumped across the tree branches Izumo leaned towards his friend's ear "holy hell. That was deep, and I was about to ask if I could call Spikester" Kotetsu recoiled and glared at his grinning friend who was shrugging. Shaking his head Kotetsu slapped Izumo across his forehead "don't be stupid right now" he warned to Izumo who could only nod silently.
As this was going on Naruto was still jumping across tree branches pondering. "Any specific reason I just started talking like an actual SAGE? Damn I guess Ma and Pa's training has really changed me... I wonder if it's for the better".
Snapping out of his thoughts he noticed a light, a light of which they were getting closer to, Naruto smirked "Team, were are just about to leave Fire country border, stay alert and mention any disturbances, at this rate we should enter Takigakure's borders in 2 days" Izumo and Kotetsu nodded and the three kept jumping through the trees.
After a few more minutes team Naruto exited the forest and came across a pathway leading towards Takigakure's direction, Naruto was about to take off down the path when he noticed a group of people standing on it, not moving.
This perturbed Naruto and co. They decided to run up to the group and when they came closer, Naruto saw that they were of Takigakure, if the symbol they wore said anything.
"Are you the Konoha Shinobi we requested for aid?" asked what looked to be the leader of the group. And Naruto knew this man.
"Shi-Shibuki?" asked Naruto shocked to see his friend at this moment.
The now named Shibuki smiled outstretching his hand towards Naruto "Naruto, my friend it's been far too long since we last met" Naruto grinned and grabbed his friends hand with his own, shaking it vigorously.
After introductions were made Shibuki frowned slightly "Naruto, my friend. I must apologise, you see the letter I sent wasn't exactly true" Naruto frowned as well and started gathering sage chakra secretly, always come prepared as they say.
"What do you mean by "wasn't exactly true" asked Naruto suspiciously.
"Well, you see, I may have written the letter and made it seem slightly more urgent then it actually is, you see Akatsuki hasn't kidnapped Fu yet, however we have every reason to believe that they will attack very soon, Naruto... please we need you to take Fu away from here" Shibuki was spouting of all sorts of information.
"Okay, okay calm down Shibuki... Now, how can you be so sure that Akatsuki is going to attack?" inquired Naruto, worry evident upon his whisker-marked face. Throughout all this Kotetsu was keeping a very open eye upon everything that was occurring at the moment. Izumo was trying to capture a butterfly that was fluttering around him.
"Because Akatsuki has already attacked once, we barely held them off, please Naruto, come back to Takigakure and talk to Fu, convince her to leave with you" Shibuki pleaded, a little to harshly in Naruto's opinion.
Naruto nodded "very well, we will come with you, however I must ask... how has Takigakure treated its Jinchuriki?"
Shibuki's shamed look he sent his guards was all the answer Naruto needed at the minute.
"Lead the way Shibuki, we must hurry"
"Yes, yes we must, quickly this way is a short-cut"
THIS IS A LINE... FUCKING TOADS
Chaos.
Chaos is what greeted Naruto's team and Shibuki's entourage, absolute chaos, Takigakure was burning, citizens were screaming running from their imminent doom.
The group just stood there watching in shock until Naruto noticed a girl, no older than himself running away from two people in black cloaks with... RED CLOUDS. Naruto's rage boomed as he leapt from the ledge he was perched on, his teammates following shortly after.
THIS IS A LINE... FUCKING TOADS
Fu, was scared, no scratch that, she was terrified and for good reason to, people were chasing her, now normally she wouldn't have been that fazed, I mean being the Jinchuriki of the seven-tailed demon or Nanabi, whichever one suits the moment. However Fu had reason to be scared, she realised who the black and red cloaked people were. And she knew two other Jinchuriki had already been captured, and she was sure as hell wasn't going to be the third, not if she had anything to say about it.
Suddenly becoming determined Fu swung herself around and stood her ground against the men in cloaks "Leave me alone" Fu shouted. Alas the two men just walked casually towards her. Shivering in fear slightly Fu once again opened her mouth to shout/plead. When another voice appeared.
"OI, DICKHEADS IN CLOAKS SAID WHAT" screamed a voice, coming from above. Fu looked up and gasped, plummeting down to the ground was a teen no older than herself, a battle-coat billowing in the wind.
Fu looked towards the two Akatsuki members and heard one say "that kid is defiantly the one".
CRASH... the teen hit the ground, causing dust to fly.
Once the dust cleared Fu saw the teen, blonde spiky hair, red and orange battle-coat, sandals and that was all Fu could see from the individuals back.
The teen turned around and looked at Fu, he suddenly smiled kindly "you must be Fu, don't worry... I'm here to protect ya" Fu nodded instinctively and smiled back.
Fu suddenly gasped, here was this man, making her smile... she hadn't smiled since... since that time.
"Ah! Naruto-kun, how nice to see you, our leader thought you disappeared" spoke a cool and collected voice. Causing Naruto to growl.
THIS IS A LINE... FUCKING TOADS
Naruto couldn't believe it, it was Itachi-teme and sushi supreme again, damn these guys were serious for demons.
Naruto knew that without sage mode he didn't stand a Kyuubi's in hell's chance. "Best thing I can do now is distract these two".
Naruto closed his eyes and smirked "so what brought you and the walking talking sushi over there to Takigakure?"
"Can it brat, my sword is just begging for you chakra, and at this rate I'd have to agree"
"Easy Kisame, we will retreat, leader-samma asked for only one Jinchuriki, and if we face two, it could go badly. We don't know Naruto-kun's skills as of yet" Itachi's calm words were.
Kisame only grunted as his answer and hefted his sword upon his shoulder "you got of lucky kid, next time... I will skin you"
"And I'd be making myself some good sushi" Naruto couldn't hide the grin that crawled onto his face.
Kisame howled in rage and charged towards the 9-tailed Jinchuriki in hopes of killing the brat.
Luckily for Naruto he had been given enough time, opening his now green rectangle eyes Naruto easily side-stepped the massive blade sent swinging for him.
"Hmm, salmon or haddock, I wonder which you are" mocked Naruto as he twirled out of the blades reach.
"Tch, damn cocky brat, how are you doing that" questioned Kisame as he valiantly swung his blade in different directions hoping to smack the brat.
Kisame stabbed his bade towards Naruto, and Naruto responded by hopping onto the fish monsters blade however Naruto stopped grinning once Kisame smirked viciously.
Sensing something was amiss Naruto jumped away as soon as the spikes popped out of Kisame's bandaged blade.
Landing Naruto grimaced; he couldn't use his summons because they would cause more damage to the village... "damn it I need to finish this now" Naruto started to think, as he continuously weaved In and out Of Kisame's swings.
Having enough of this Naruto adopted the Kage-Bushin and a poof of white smoke appeared revealing two more Naruto's.
Before Akatsuki could question anything Naruto raised his hands and created two rasengan's, one in each palm.
Itachi's eyes narrowed slightly at this showing while Kisame grinned toothily.
Naruto heard a gasp behind him and could only assume that it was Fu, seeing his awesomeness.
"Ha, so you can make two rasengan's now... so what" piped Kisame to Naruto's annoyance.;
The three Naruto's ran towards Kisame, Kisame reacted with a horizontal swing, of which he caught one Bushin with, however the other Bushin had grabbed hold of the sword, holding it in place.
While that went on the real Naruto rushed towards the stuck Kisame and plunged both Rasengan's into Kisame's chest shouting "Sage arts: RASENRENGAN" the attack hit and sent Kisame flying past Itachi who looked un-interested.
A crash was heard as well as a splash of water, that second sound made Naruto even more alert and good reason to. Because Kisame had replaced himself with a water-clone... sneaky bastard.
"LOOK-OUT" shouted a feminine voice, obviously Fu. Thanks to the warning Naruto had enough time to duck underneath Kisame's swing that would have decapitated Naruto.
"Izumo, Kotetsu. NOW" shouted Naruto as he flung kunai at Kisame at a fast pace, each blade bouncing off Kisame's hard blade.
Izumo, appeared to Kisame's left. Kotetsu to his right both holding their respective weapons, the two friends swung their weapons with all their might, hoping catch Kisame in the middle. However Kisame grinned and leaned backwards causing his weapon to be locked between the other two weapons.
"Kuso" Naruto muttered as he signalled his team to his position. In front of Fu.
"Kisame. Enough, we leave now" Itachi's cold voice cut into the fight, causing all percipients to shiver.
Kisame grinned "fine I'm coming Itachi" giving one last look towards Naruto he turned around and caught up to Itachi, both of them fading out because of the darkness.
Izumo and Kotetsu both let out a sigh of relief at the situation and holstered their weapons.
Naruto himself turned around to Fu and extended his hand out to her, Fu tentatively reached out with her own, and grabbed Naruto's him lifting her up from the ground. Naruto grinned goofily and announced his name "the names Naruto Uzumaki, and I presume you are Fu?" Fu pulled back slightly in fear, how did they know her, were they sent here to hurt her... no... She wouldn't let them.
"St-stay away from me" Fu muttered fearfully. Naruto realised what was wrong, she has never been treated by her village well... it's only natural for her to be suspicious of him. Raising his arms in a good-will gesture Naruto motioned towards his companions who had also put away their weapons "Fu, we're here to protect you we... we now of your burden".
Now, Fu knew he wasn't lying, she just knew and she couldn't understand why. Tears escaped from her eyes as she ran into Naruto and embraced him sobbing into his coat, letting all of her pain and sadness out from being beaten to being ignored.
At that moment Naruto made a vow to himself "I will never let harm come to this woman, I promise this to myself... she doesn't deserve this... I'll make sure she'll never have to go through this pain again" Nodding with his mini monologue Naruto picked up the weeping Fu bridal-style and left Takigakure.
He passed Shibuki and sent a disgusted look his way, Shibuki could do nothing but lower his head in shame.
Izumo and Kotetsu didn't say anything, they couldn't, it wasn't time, and right now they needed to take Fu back to Konoha for her own good.
Before team Naruto left Takigakure for good. Izumo cleared it with Shibuki of what happened and Shibuki was understanding of Naruto's anger and agreed to allow Fu to be taken to Konoha.
Right now Naruto and co. were travelling towards Fire-country borders, Naruto still carrying a now sleeping Fu.
Naruto sighed as he closed his sage mode eyes and reopened them to reveal his furious sapphire eyes.
"Team, we will rest here for the night, we head out at sunrise" spoke Naruto softly as to not wake Fu, she needed rest.
As the camp was set up and fire made Naruto placed Fu into his tent as he was going to sleep outside tonight.
He wondered about Fu and after some debilitation Naruto came across a realisation "me and Fu are two of the same... we both grew up with our villages hating our guts. However I made friends while I assume she did not."
Gazing towards where he laid Fu to rest Naruto became determined. Determined to protect Fu from Akatsuki. Determined to get to know Fu. Determined to...
...Save Fu.
YEEEEEAAAAAAA!
WE DONE BOO YAH!
