Hey there! I'm back, with a brand new chapter. Nothing much to say, except the fact that I'm grateful to all the feedbacks and responses this fic is getting. I sincerely thank all my readers, for making this fic a hit.
So, without wasting any time, let's get to the story!
…
Oh…yeah. Well, you know, I'm currently researching on the word 'Disclaimer'. I still don't know what it is.
Chapter 3: The S-Plan
'Hinata-sama' Neji thought with a sad look on his face, as he casted a worried glance at the Hyuuga heiress.
From the moment Naruto had been bonded to Miya, his first Sekirei, a desolated and dismal look had appeared over Hinata's features. For her to look so dejected and hollow, it really made him feel sorry for the lavender eyed woman. And the more tragic part was that Hinata seemed to have masked her true emotions to herself, and was even laughing in fake manner, which was so surreal that if he hadn't known of her feelings beforehand, then he too would have been fooled by the act.
And it was not just Neji, who felt their heart reach out for the Hyuuga woman. Everyone from Konoha knew of the feelings, which Hinata had harbored for the blonde hokage for so long. To see her, watching her entire dream and visions crumble before her very eyes, it just made them feel as if some higher power was really doing some sort of injustice to her.
And they couldn't even blame Naruto for this. It may have been irony, or some sort of coincidence, but everyone had noticed one interesting fact, that never once had Naruto initiated a kiss voluntarily with his Sekirei. Each of the Sekirei had either forced themselves upon him, or the circumstances had forced Naruto to kiss them.
Starting from Miya, she was the first one to initiate the kiss with Naruto. And even then, it had not been with Naruto's consent. It had all been so sudden, that Naruto didn't even have the time to recover himself from the action. Matsu too had copied her predecessor's action, and one which she almost paid for. As for Kazehana's case, Naruto had been all but guiltied into winging the third Sekirei. Not much of a choice, given the situation it had turned out to be. And for the matter of Karasuba, well, the best term to use would be that she stole a kiss from Naruto.
And they also couldn't blame Naruto for not responding to Hinata's feelings and love, because they knew that Naruto had never known these emotions to begin with. Some would say that it's cruel from Naruto's part to have not even given his response to Hinata's confession. But then again, those people don't know the real Naruto.
As much as Naruto loved to sprout on the importance of bonds and loves, the harsh truth of the reality was that Naruto never knew and experienced them in first place. They knew this, because they were acquainted with Naruto's childhood. For someone, who said he valued his bonds and comradeship, the bitter truth of the reality was that he never knew the meaning of love in his entire life. He only held so much importance for love, because it was one such thing that he never knew and understood his whole life. He longed for it. He hoped to cherish them. And no one, but they themselves, and the villagers, were to blame for this.
They knew this. The villagers knew this. But still, it was of no use to feel ashamed and disgusted at a decade old past. And no matter how much they tried to rectify for the past, the damage was already done, and Naruto's emotional maturity was distorted for the rest of his life.
That's why, they could do nothing but feel sorry for the Hyuuga heiress. It took the four Sekireis to practically force themselves upon Naruto, to make him see that they loved him. If they hadn't done that, then they highly doubted that the Sekiries would have progressed any further than Hinata.
And from here on, they could only hope that these women would be able to help Naruto in recovering the bits and pieces of a life, that he should have received long ago. That they could heal Naruto from the wound, that was inflicted upon his fragile mind all those years ago.
They hoped that Naruto would truly realize what love is.
With these thoughts haunting their minds, everyone looked at Naruto, as they all sat in a large circular formation on the floor, with the newest addition into their group, Sekirei No. 05, Mutsu.
The introduction of the last Sekirei had been the one without much fanfare, unlike his four predecessors. Thankfully, Mutsu didn't react to anyone in the hall, for which everyone were quite grateful.
"Man…" Kiba drawled, as a look that was quite similar to that of disappointment came over his face "With the way things were going…I really thought Naruto would wing Mutsu too!" He exclaimed the last part, with a wide grin on his face.
Everyone, except Naruto's Sekirei of course, burst out into laughter when they heard Kiba's remark. In response, Naruto shot his dirtiest look at the Inuzuka clan head's direction.
"Hmm…" Choji hummed, as he put a contemplating expression on face "Now that I think about it, I always thought why Naruto was never with any woman all these years. Even though he has now been labeled as the most desirable bachelor by the female population in the Shinobi world"
"Maybe…he swings the other way" Sasuke said amusedly, as he had a smirk on his face.
"What was that teme!" Naruto bellowed, as everyone except his Sekireis, who were horrified by the implication, laughed at Naruto's expense.
Kiba suddenly had a dangerous glint in his eyes, as he stared at Sasuke "Oh, you would definitely know that Sasuke…" He said with a grin, that immediately put both Naruto and Sasuke on guard "After all, you and Naruto were each other's first kiss"
Instantly, the entire room rolled into the aisles, as most of the Konoha shinobis present there rolled on the floor in their laughter. The prominent exceptions in this case were obviously Naruto's Sekirei, who looked quite horrified at the revelation, with an ashen faced look on their face. Both Naruto and Sasuke looked all of a sudden like they had swollen something inedible, as their face turned green.
"Naru-tan…" At Matsu's quivering voice, Naruto turned his head towards her, to see her directing him a consternated look. When she saw that she got her Ashikabi's attention, she continued in a worried tone "You…You are interested in woman…Right?"
Naruto's eyes widened comically, when he heard that question "What?!" he shouted out, as his face burned bright red in embarrassment "What kind of question is that?!" He shouted out at the top of his lungs, never ever in the past five years feeling as embarrassed as he was feeling now.
Everyone snickered at the byplay, as the newest addition to the group and the recently awakened Sekirei, Mutsu stared at the scene with a raised eyebrow.
'What an interesting bunch of people' He thought.
Miya, who was pale faced, shakily spoke up "N-Naru-kun…Is it true?"
Naruto turned towards his first Sekirei with twitching eyebrows "What is true?" He asked in irritation, having recently experienced the jab at his sexuality.
Miya, who still looked pale, continued "-That you had your first kiss with a boy?"
Her Ashikabi couldn't be a gay to give his first kiss to a boy…could he?
Naruto's face gained an even more green color, while his twitching spread from his eyebrows to his entire body, as every person in the room, except his Sekireis and of course Sasuke, were sent tumbling down to the floor in their laughter.
"Aargghh!" Both Naruto and Sasuke exclaimed, as they shot up from the floor while clutching their hands over their mouth, and quickly dashed towards the nearest washroom in the spaceship. Loud gagging sounds started came from there, as every Konoha shinobi gained a renewed vigor in their laughter.
Miya seemed to recover from her previous state, as she blinked at the way the situation turned out
"Ara…" She said confusedly, as she put a hand over her cheek while looking at the door, through which her Ashikabi and Sasuke rushed towards the washroom "…Is it something I said?"
The only answer she was met with was loud laughters from her husband's comrades.
"Arrghh…" Naruto groaned, as his face looked visibly tired with the vomiting he to endure just recently. Few seats away from him, Sasuke too mimicked his expression, as he too looked quite grim faced.
Suddenly, a pair of hands snaked around Naruto's torso, as the back of his head was placed on a pair of two soft mounds of flesh
"Naru-koi…" A husky voice breathed past his ears, resulting in him feeling shudders going down his spine. The owner of the voice rubbed her cheeks against Naruto's, as she continued in the same husky voice "I could make you feel better, my beloved"
Naruto had to visibly restrain himself from letting out a pleasured moan at her ministrations "K-Kazehana-chan…" He rasped out, forcing every bit of his will to not groan out in pleasure. And the reasons for these were visibly clear, as Kazehana's hands treaded down dangerously towards Naruto's lower body.
Everyone present there silently blushed at the sexual intimacy, that was being showcased before them. Except for Kakashi and Matsu, both of whom had blushes staining their cheeks, but were also giggling like mad perverts. Karasuba had her eyebrows twitching at the scene in front of her.
"Kazehana…"
Miya's voice cut through the air like a hot knife through butter, as darkness started to envelop the air around her. A sense of despair and dread started to permeate the surrounding, as Miya's eyes gained a dangerous glint in them.
"Blatant display of sexuality with our Ashikabi in public…"
Everyone present in the hall, Sekirei and humans alike, started to cower in fright at the aura that Miya was emitting. The only one who was not frightened by what was transpiring was none other than Naruto, as he stared at the phenomenon behind Miya with interested eyes.
"-is prohibited"
These words were the trigger, when something happened that scared the living lights out of everyone except Naruto, as they stared with horror in their eyes, at the thing that slowly formed behind Miya. It was a mask. And not just any mask, but a hannya mask, that seemed to have been summoned straight from the deepest pits of hell.
And what made it all worse, was the fact that Miya did all these with a deceptively sweet, a bit too sweet, smile on her face.
"Now, do you understand what I said, Kazehana" She said in a sweet tone, with that fake pleasant smile on her face.
Kazehana merely nodded her head furiously, as she still found her voice to be nonexistent in the presence of the abomination, that had manifested itself behind Miya's surrounding.
And just like that, the pressure was lifted off the air, as the air around Miya instantly cleared, as if the hannya mask was never there to begin with. Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, as the dreaded abomination was no longer scaring living daylights out of them.
"M-Miya-tan" Matsu spoke up in a shaky voice, as she had a slight grim look on her face "Wh-What was that?!"
Miya tilted her head curiously, as she stared at the red haired Sekirei with an innocent look "What are talking about Matsu?" She asked in a tone, that was laced with so much fake innocence that it just couldn't be called innocent.
Matsu seemed to be even more terrified by this response "B-But…that thing. M-Miya-tan, you must surely know that!" she exclaimed in hysteresis.
Miya once again had that fake pleasant smile on her face, albeit this time, there was no hannya mask, as her eyes crinkled pleasantly "I have no idea what you talking about" She said innocently.
Matsu, along with Kazehana and all the other shinobis present there, paled when they heard this. Naruto just stared at the proceedings with an amused face.
Shikamaru turned towards Naruto with a pale face "Naruto…I pity you"
Every shinobi present there nodded their head in agreement. Naruto raised an amused eyebrow at this, but he had no other response, as he let out a chuckle while holding the shaking form of Kazehana.
After some time, everyone settled back into their seats, with the lightness of the situation evaporating away. Their faces gained calm expression, as the seriousness of the situation started to weigh down on everyone. They looked at their blonde leader, to see him wearing a serious contemplative expression.
Naruto merely glanced at them for a second, before resuming back in his musing. His mind drifted towards the actions that all the minor villages took together.
There was a good reason why he was a bit reluctant to let himself and his shinobis to join this assault defense. If he were to by chance let either himself or shinobis under his commands to join the attack, then not only would it mean a shift in his stance, but it could very well result in an elemental nationwide scandal.
The concept, though sneaky and underhanded, was really simple. On one hand, the army that was going to assault would not only be able to get their hands on the fascinating extraterrestrial element, that could very well give them the necessary boost to be the next major hidden village, but on the other hand, they could also place the group of shinobis that would come from a major village to investigate to be in between rock and a hard place.
And the real plotting starts with the next step. By ensuring that no minor village would be left out of the alliance, it only left the possibility of a major shinobi village to send their shinobis for investigation. And by doing that, they-
"Naruto"
Shikamaru called out, snapping him out of his thoughts. He blinked to himself, while coming back to reality, as he looked at all his friend and Sekirei, who were looking at him concernedly.
Shikamaru narrowed his gaze at Naruto "Naruto…you are awfully getting lost in your thoughts lately"
Naruto let out a dry chuckle, when he heard this "How can't I?" He said with a bitter smile, that caught everyone off guard. His Sekireis looked at him concernedly, but he ignored them, as he narrowed his eyes "I was thinking about the motive behind this army attack"
Sasuke looked confused at his words "Motive…What other motive could they have, other than acquiring the Sekirei spaceship?"
Naruto chuckled ruefully to himself, an action that immediately set everyone on alert and caused his Sekireis to gaze more worriedly at their Ashikabi. Naruto then looked at Sasuke with a mirthless smile "Its…not that simple, Sasuke"
"What is there to not understand Naruto?" Sakura asked with a frown, as an expression of confusion was etched on her face.
Shikamaru eyes suddenly widened, as he realized what Naruto was trying to insinuate "Shit!" He cursed to himself, as he gritted his teeth in barely constrained anger.
Naruto's eyes softened, when he saw that Shikamaru had deduced the facts "So you have realized it, huh" He said in a soft voice "As expected of you, Shikamaru"
Shikamaru clenched his fist, as he visibly looked upset "Naruto…even after all that you have done for them…" He closed his eyes, while his voice shook slightly "They repay you like this"
Naruto gained a resigned smile on his face "No need to be upset Shikamaru. I knew that they had been plotting against me for quite some time" He said softly.
Shikamaru merely remained silent, as his face showed just how much upset he was.
"Just what the hell is going on?!" Sakura shouted out, as she slammed her fist onto the floor before her. Everyone nodded in agreement to Sakura, as they all looked visibly upset at being left out of the loop.
All of Naruto's Sekirei, even Karasuba, looked visibly tensed, as they continued to gaze worriedly at their Ashikabi. From what they have heard up until now, they could deduce the fact that Naruto is some kind of danger, with someone plotting against him. Just what the danger was, they couldn't grasp it.
Shikamaru looked visibly consternated, as looked at everyone "It's about Naruto getting disgraced and undignified by participating in this defence"
"!"
Everyone were thrown out of a loop, when they heard this. Their faces clearly spoke of the shock that was currently coursing through their mind and body, as they turned their wide eyes towards Naruto for confirmation.
Naruto merely nodded at them, with a grimace written on his face "It's true" He replied, as he once again sighed in defeat "In fact, I know that they have been plotting for my downfall for quite some time"
"What!" Sakura screamed in rage. Others around her were not faring better, as they had an expression of shock and anger written all over their face. Sakura ignored them, as she continued "But how could you be disgraced for protecting a helpless alien race!"
Naruto closed his eyes, as he pursed his lips "It's not that simple Sakura" He said in a soft tone.
"Then you explain it!"
Naruto once again sighed at Sakura's persistence. Also, the looks that his Sekireis were giving him were not at all helping the case. With a resigned expression, he turned towards Shikamaru "Shikamaru…could you explain it to them. Surely you must have deduced it by now"
Shikamaru once again grimaced at that, as he bit back a snarl that threatened to escape his mouth "The United Shinobi Council" He whispered harshly.
"Huh?" Everyone blinked at that statement. What was the role of this independent body in the plotting of Naruto's downfall?
The United Shinobi Council was an independent body that was co-founded by Naruto, along with all the other leaders of all the major and minor shinobi nations, immediately after the Great Fourth Shinobi War. It was an external and independent body, whose purpose was to govern over all the Shinobi and prevent another Great Shinobi War from breaking out. The higher ups in this body were chosen through democratic means, by an elemental nation wide voting poll.
The sad news of the current situation is that the officials in this autonomous body are getting day by day more corrupt. The power granted to them has unfortunately gotten to their heads, and they are trying to dictate everything that comprises the Shinobi world.
What's more unfortunate is that it's true. They now really do dictate everything that comprises the Shinobi world. They have an almost veto power over the economic flow that exist in the Shinobi world, with them regulating mission distributions and trade affairs.
"United Shinobi Council?" Sasuke said with a frown "What has that to do with the threat to Naruto's status?"
Shikamaru shook his head at Sasuke's question "It has everything to do with that governing body Sasuke" He replied. He slightly hung his head, as a frown marred his face "The only one they fear in this entire Shinobi world is our Hokage, Naruto"
Everyone turned their head to Naruto's direction, who had his eyes closed with a calm expression on his face.
Shikamaru continued "He is possibly the only one in this entire Shinobi world who possibly holds more sway over the people, than that possessed by the Council"
Tenten interjected "And they fear such power, that is possessed by a single person"
Shikamaru nodded "Yes…They fear that Naruto could overthrow them, if they made the slightest mistake. They fear that Naruto could easily dissolve the governing body that he himself co-founded"
Silence reigned over the room, as everyone contemplated over Shikamaru's words. Miya looked concernedly at her Ashikabi, as she laid her hand on his shoulder, but was only met with a smile in response from him.
Shikamaru sighed, as he once again continued "And this army invasion provides them a perfect opportunity to discredit him"
"!"
Everyone was once again shocked at those words. They could neither believe nor grasp the meaning behind Shikamaru's words
Ino decided to be the vocal one "What!" She exclaimed with a shocked expression "How can he be discredited for trying to save a helpless alien race!" She repeated the same words that were spoken by Sakura few moments ago.
Naruto released a sigh, as he decided to continue for Shikamaru "It's because this would give them an opportunity to tarnish my reputation, and in effect produce an economical threat to Konoha in general"
Kiba frowned at Naruto's words "What? But how could that happen?"
Naruto pursed his lips, contemplating his next words, but decided to just go with it "It's because…they would start to question my credibility in maintaining my words, that is me proclaiming to maintain a peace and neutral stance, only to participate in this battle. This would in effect reduce the influx of missions and trade relations that the Council regulates, as my word could no longer be trusted by the customers"
Shikamaru decided to interject "And this would in effect start to heavily weigh down upon Naruto's image as a Hokage. The depression in the economy of Konoha would effectively render Naruto as an ineffective Hokage" Here, Shikamaru's face darkened a little, as he revealed the plotting against Naruto "And an ineffective Hokage-"
"-Is no longer worth to be Hokage" Sasuke finished with a scowl, as he grasped the underlying of the plotting against their leader.
Almost everyone gasped at the revelation, as they realized how deep-rooted the plotting was against the blonde Hokage.
"What!" Sakura screamed in absolute rage at this revelation "They are trying to rob Naruto off from his dream!" She turned towards Naruto with a livid expression on her face "Naruto, wasn't it your dream to be Hokage?!" She exclaimed.
Naruto sighed when he heard this, and directed his former teammate a resigned smile "Yes Sakura…It was my dream to become Hokage. But…" Naruto looked down at the floor with a soft expression "It's also my vision to never let a wrong happen in front of my eyes…especially when I have the power to prevent it" He said in a soft voice.
Everyone quieted down, as they heard Naruto's words with a stunned expression on their face. Some of them even started to smile, as they thought how Naruto, even after all these years, never lost his charisma. After this, Naruto said nothing more, as silence reigned over the hall once again.
Miya, in particular, was absolutely shocked and scandalized at the revelations of some faction plotting the downfall of her Ashikabi. She once again shakily rested her hand on his shoulder, as she wore a delicate expression on her face "N-Naru-kun…" She whispered out in a trembling voice.
Naruto didn't respond to Miya's gesture, as he looked down at the floor with a forlorn expression on his face. When another set of hands snaked around his torso, and hugged his frame, did he snap out of his trance. He turned his head to see who embraced him, only to come face to face with Kazehane, who wore a soft expression on her face.
"Naru-koi…" Kazehane whispered softly, as she rested her head on his shoulder, and nuzzled his neck "Even though your dream is at stake, you are still willing to save my race at all cost" She raised her hand, as she caressed her Ashikabi's cheek with a smile on her face "This is why you are my hero, Naru-koi"
Naruto let smile crawl up his lips, as he saw everyone, including his four Sekireis, smiling at him. He momentarily closed his eyes, as he released a deep sigh, before opening them back with a clearly visible determined look on his face.
"Everyone" He said in a loud but calm authoritative voice "Let's begin the planning for the operation S-plan"
A figure stared continuously at the screen, which continued to show Naruto's photo, as he contemplated the move he had made the minor villages to take at this moment.
"You have been staring at the screen for awfully too long" A voice came from behind, which snapped the figure out of his trance.
The owner of the voice had an aristocratic appearance, with his silky brown hair and purple eyes. He was wearing what appeared to be a highly expensive black tuxedo.
At hearing the voice, the figure turned his head around to face the person who called him, with a smirk etched on his face "It's nothing…." He said with his smirk, as he turned back to once again stare at the screen "I was just thinking how this man turned from a talentless brat to a living God in human flesh" He said, while referring to the person on the screen.
"Hmm…You do have a lot of history with him. Isn't that right…Orochimaru" The anonymous person said with a calm smile on his face.
The now revealed Orochimaru started to chuckle, as his eyes never left the photo of Naruto "Yes I have…Saito Ryusuke, Governor of the United Shinobi Council"
At this, the now revealed Saito also joined the chuckle with Orochimaru, as he walked forward to stand beside the Snake Sennin, and joined in on staring at Naruto's picture on the screen.
"I hope the steps we have taken just now would be enough for Naruto Uzumaki's fall from grace" Saito said, while continuing to stare at the screen.
"Hmm…" Orochimaru hummed, with his eyes never leaving the screen, as a sickening smile crept up his lips "Don't worry…After all, I'm master mind behind this plan"
Naruto released a deep sigh, as he scanned the layout of the map in front of him on the screen. It had come as big surprise for him and his company, when he learned that Matsu could control electric equipments with just a nigh thought. So, they had her launch an image transmitter into the sky, and capture the layout image of the full battleground that they were going to use.
The whole thing just proved that the Sekirei species were a hugely versatile species in terms of powers.
"So…" Naruto started off, as he stared the map of the landscape on the screen "The enemy is going to arrive from the north, isn't it?" He asked, while looking at Shikamaru.
Shikamaru nodded in affirmative "Yes, that's what the report came from our spy intel"
Naruto stared seriously at the screen, as his eyes gained a cold calculative look, that sent shivers down the spine of everyone present there "The intel report also stated that there would an aerial force, coming right behind the army in a few lapse of seconds" He stated in serious tone.
Shikamaru nodded with a serious expression of his own "That's true. And not only that, but those flight crafts, which would come hovering above us…" Shikamaru grimaced a little, as he continued "also contains Hydrogen bombs"
Sakura gasped at the revelation, as she stared disbelievingly at Shikamaru "Oh no…" She trailed off, with wide shocked eyes.
Kiba stared questionably at pink haired kunoichi "What's the matter Sakura? It's just a bomb right? After facing so many bijudama's in the previous war, I don't think some third rate human made bombs could frighten us"
Everyone nodded in agreement with Kiba, but Naruto and Kakashi remained silent, as a more serious expression dawned on their features. All of Naruto's Sekirei, along with Mutsu, stared curiously at Sakura, on this Hydrogen bomb matter.
"Sakura-san" Miya called out, gaining Sakura's attention, as she continued "Should we be concerned about this Hydrogen bomb?"
"Yes…" Sakura whispered with an anxious look on her face "You all should" She said softly.
Ino suddenly had a concerned look on her face, as she looked at Sakura "Why is that, Sakura?" She asked tenderly.
Sakura had a slight grimace on her features, as she looked at everyone "You people would not understand this, until you see it with you own eyes"
As she said this, she suddenly made a hand sign, and the whole scenario changed from that of a spaceship to an open landscape. Everyone noticed something dropping from the sky towards the ground at a far distance.
Kazehana looked around with a perplexed expression on her face "What's going on?" She asked, with confusion evident in her voice.
"This is a genjutsu" Sasuke explained, gaining the attention of all the Sekireis present there. Seeing this, he continued "It's an illusionary technique, that is capable of projecting images towards your opponents, and disrupting their perception towards reality"
Every Sekirei looked awed at that. Matsu in particular looked certainly impressed at this ability.
"Incredible…" She murmured, as she looked around at the illusion with impressed eyes "To think Shinobis are capable of this"
All the other four Sekireis nodded in agreement with Matsu, as they looked at the thing in the sky at a far away distance from them, that was speeding towards the ground.
"That thing" Sakura said, while pointing towards the object that was speeding towards the ground "Is a nuclear bomb. On impact with the ground, it would result in a massive explosion"
As if on cue, the bomb made impact with the ground. The result was catastrophic, as a tremendous explosion detonated at the site of impact, and a massive amount of shockwave and heat was released from it, that even frightened the Shinobis and Sekireis present there. A mushroom cloud of titanic proportion easily reached up to the sky, as the whole landscape was leveled under the explosion.
The whole scenery changed, as everyone found themselves back at the hall of the spaceship.
Kiba almost stumbled in his own seat, as he wore a bewildered expression on his face "H-Holy Shit!" He exclaimed with wide shocked eyes "W-What the hell w-was that?!"
Sakura gained a fierce grimace on her face "That…was a nuclear explosion"
Sasuke had a serious expression on his features "That explosion…was actually more powerful than that of a standard bijudama" He said gravely, while looking at Sakura.
Miya, along with all the other Sekireis, looked quite shaken at the scene they were presented to.
"Unbelievable…" Miya whispered with an amazed expression on her face, while looking down at the floor.
Sakura shook her head at Sasuke's words, as she suddenly gained a frightened look "No, what's more frightening is that the Hydrogen bomb is…" Her voice slightly trembled in her fright "Actually 500 times more destructive than the nuclear explosion we just saw"
"F-Five hundred times!" Kiba sputtered out, as by now, he gained an absolutely frightened expression on his face. Others were not faring too well, as they too started to panic at the frightening possibility of facing such destructive power.
"Enough!"
Naruto's commanding voice reverberated across the whole hall, as everyone halted in their panic, and looked at the blonde Hokage, who looked calm and composed amidst the panic that was surrounding him.
Naruto gazed coolly at everyone, as he spoke out in an authoritative tone "That's enough everyone! We are not here to chicken out, but to save an entire species of extraterrestrial race from the machinations and greed of people, who would not hesitate in enslaving and dissecting them to gain their powers. Do you all understand!" He shouted, while leaking a calm but powerful aura into the atmosphere.
The effect was instantaneous, as everyone calmed down from their panic state, and nodded back at Naruto with a determined look on their face. Seeing this, Naruto nodded back at them with a satisfied look on his face.
Karasuba licked her lips, as she looked at her Ashikabi with sultry look on her face "Ahhh…you got me all horny with that commanding act, Naru-chan" She whispered in a husky tone at him.
Naruto suddenly gained a fierce blush on his face at that, but unfortunately, there was more for his torment, as another voice came right beside his ear.
"Crow-chan over there is right, Naru-koi" Kazehana whispered into his ear, as she started to sensually rub his chest "You were so manly moments ago" She remarked with a sexy smile, as she stared at her Ashikabi with her half lidded eyes.
Both of them would have continued in their endeavor, were it not for one single factor.
"Karasuba. Kazehana..." Miya's voice suddenly pierced the air, as she eyed both the flirting Sekireis with a dangerous glint. Suddenly, she looked behind Naruto "And you too Matsu" She said in a calm eerie voice.
Matsu suddenly froze right behind Naruto, with her arms threatening to snake around Naruto's torso, as she looked at Miya with a frightened expression.
The air around Miya started to darken; as she stared at them with a sweet smile on her face "Sexual innuendo's and flirting with our Ashikabi, right before the mission…is prohibited"
Although the mask didn't materialize this time, the effect was still the same, as both Kazehana and Matsu nodded frantically at Miya, as they stared at the purplette with wary eyes.
Meanwhile, Karasuba clicked her tongue "Che" She huffed in irritation.
Shikamaru chuckled at the scene in front of him, as he turned towards Naruto with appraising eyes "Good work there Naruto, for calming everyone down" His face then adopted a serious expression, as he turned towards the screen, which showcased the map of the battlefield "As for the case of the Hydrogen bombs…I think we can turn those things into our favor" He finished with smirk.
Everyone blinked at that, as they contemplated over Shikamaru's words. Their faces clearly showed their expression of confusion.
Sasuke decided to voice everyone's thought, as he looked at Shikamaru with a frown "What do mean by that Shikamaru?" He asked, with confusion evident in his voice.
Shikamaru smirked even more at this "We can do that…by using the power of the wind"
Kazehana immediately perked up, when she heard this "Wind?" She asked with interested eyes.
Shikamaru nodded, as he turned towards Naruto "Yes, we could have Naruto here" He said, while pointing towards the blonde Hokage "Use his power over the winds, to control the projectile of the jet planes that would carry those bombs"
Kazehana turned towards her Ashikabi with a stunned expression on her face "You have power over wind!" She remarked with a shocked visage.
Naruto scratched his cheek embarrassingly "Well…" He trailed off; as he got slightly shy all of a sudden "You could say that…"
A squeal erupted from Naruto's third Sekirei, as Kazehana clasped Naruto into a fierce hug, with an ecstatic expression on her features.
"I can't believe it!" She shouted, as hugged her Ashikabi to her breast with a joyful expression.
"A-And I can't breathe!" Naruto muffled through her breast, while being suffocated due to air loss.
Shikamaru sighed at the big breasted Sekirei's antics, as he decided to ignore them "As I was saying" He spoke to the others "Naruto will use his power over the winds, to control the projectile of the Jet planes" His features gained a serious expression, as he continued "If what I read about the Jet planes are right, then they are able to achieve flight because of buoyancy effect"
"Buoyancy effect?" Kiba parroted while scratching his head, as an utterly confused expression dawned on his face.
Sakura sighed at Kiba's antic, and decided to explain the basics "Kiba" She called him out, effectively gaining his attention. Seeing this she continued "Buoyancy effect is the upward force, that is exerted by a medium upon an object in opposition to the object's weight that is being exerted downwards due to the gravity. Now do you understand?"
Kiba had an owlish expression on his face, as he once again idly scratched his head "Urmm…was that supposed to help?" He asked lamely.
Sakura suddenly gained a twitching eyebrow, as everyone, including the Sekireis, present there snickered at Sakura's plight. In the end, all Sakura did was sigh in resignation.
Shikamaru sighed once again, as he decided to continue his explanation on his plan "As I was saying, the jet planes achieve flight through the usage of buoyancy effect. If we could have Naruto make the upper atmosphere in the sky more dense than the lower atmosphere" Shikamaru suddenly gained a smug smirk, as he continued "Then the planes would crash land into their own army, even before they could reach us"
Tenten gained an enlightened expression, as she got excited "I get it!" She exclaimed in excitement, while slamming her right fist into her left palm "This would result in the weapons that are stored in the planes to be detonated over the area where the army stands, and turn their own weapons against them" She gained a bright smile as she looked at Shikamaru "Which would, in effect, take out half of their army!"
Shikamaru nodded in affirmative with a slight smile of his own "Yes Tenten…that's the gist of it"
Everyone started to get excited at implication, as confidence started to seep into the minds of every person present there. Naruto smiled through Kazehana's breast, as he saw this.
Calmly, Naruto removed himself from his Sekirei's embrace, ignoring Kazehana's pout, as he looked at Shikamaru with a serious expression "So Shikamaru, what I need to do is make the upper atmosphere more dense than the lower one. Isn't that right?" He asked the master strategist.
Shikamaru nodded in confirmation to Naruto words.
Naruto gained a smile, as he opened his mouth to give his consent, but was suddenly beaten to it by another voice.
"There's no need for that"
Every neck present in the hall snapped towards Kazehana, who just now interjected Naruto and Shikamaru's conversation. Everyone raised their eyebrows in confusion at the Sekirei's words.
Naruto gained a confused expression on his face, when he heard his third Sekirei's statement "Kaze-chan…" He muttered with a frown "What did you meant by that?" He asked, while furrowing his brows in confusion.
Kazehana just smiled demurely at her Ashikabi, as she laid her hand upon Naruto's "That's because, Naru-koi…I also have the power over the wind"
Everyone present there widened their eyes, when they heard this.
Naruto, in particular, was staring at his third Sekirei in astonishment "Oh…wow" He whispered, while looking amazed and equally happy at this revelation.
Kazehana merely smiled joyfully at her Ashikabi.
"Hmm…" Shikamaru hummed, as he gained a smile at this revelation "Well…this makes things a lot more easier, I guesss" He remarked with a smirk on his face. He then turned to look at Kazehana with a serious expression "Then I guess you would be handling the job of making the air in the sky denser. Could you do that?" He asked the wind Sekirei.
Kazehana nodded back in acceptance, as a reply to Shikamaru's question.
Shikamaru gained a satisfied smirk on his face at this "Then I guess that half of the army would be done for after the whole mishap" He then suddenly gained a grave expression on his face, as he looked at all five Sekireis "And the other half of the army is all up to you people now" He stated, as a forlorn expression dawned on his features "Try to finish them off…because you all know what would happen, if Naruto gets dragged into this war" He stated with grave tone.
"I know" Miya answered immediately, as a determined look came upon her face "And I won't let any harm befall upon my Ashikabi"
The other three Sekireis nodded in agreement, with a determined expression of their own on their features. Mutsu merely sat at his place, with a bored look on his face.
Everyone smiled, as they saw how much the four Sekireis cared for their Ashikabi.
Naruto's lips twitched into a slight smile, as he saw the protectiveness of his Sekireis over him. It really warmed his heart, to see how much his Sekireis cared for him.
"You are lucky to have them in your life"
At Sasuke's voice, Naruto turned towards the Uchiha, only to see the Sharingan wielder smirking at him.
Seeing this, Naruto merely smiled serenely in reply, as he turned back towards his Sekirei "Yes…I guess I am" He replied with grateful smile on his face
"So…this is the site of impact, huh" One Shinobi remarked, as he viewed the scenery in front of him.
"It is…" Another Shinobi stated "And there's the spaceship too" He said, while pointing towards the outline of the massive spacecraft.
Many murmurs started to echo across the area, as a massive army, consisting of two thousand Shinobis stood over the war torn landscape, that was once used in the Great Fourth Shinobi War.
"Enough!" A voice echoed across the whole landscape, originating from the commander of the entire army, Kisiko Masatsu, as he looked at his troop with a strict face "That's enough!" He shouted at them "We are not here for gossiping or playing around. We are here on a mission!" He roared at them, while his face fixated on a glare, that was directed at the entire army "And don't forget, that a team from major Shinobi village could be here for investigation"
The whole army got serious, as all of them tensed at the implication.
Suddenly, a beep came from the pocket of the commander. Kisiko frowned, as he took out a phone from his pocket, and placed it over his ear. After few moments, he suddenly gained a smirk on his face, as he put the phone back in his pocket. He turned towards his army, with the same smirking expression on his face.
"Alright guys!" He shouted at his army "The aerial troops are coming here. We are now safe to move forward. If something dangerous does comes out of the spaceship…" Suddenly, he gained a vicious smirk on his face, as he continued "Then we will drop the bomb over them"
The entire army as a whole cheered at their commander's words.
Kisiko was about to move forward in the spaceship's direction, when he suddenly noticed four figures standing over a distant cliff, that was near the spaceship. His eyes squinted, as he tried to identify the figures who were standing there. That's when he noticed that the one's standing over the cliff were three women and one man.
'What are they doing over there?' He thought, while narrowing his eyes in suspicion 'And why are they standing so close to the spaceship?'
Suddenly, they all heard a buzzing sound coming from the sky, as pointed objects at a far distance became visible in the upper atmosphere.
"The aerial troop has arrived!" One Shinobi shouted in joy. Other's too joined in the celebration, as they cheered for the arrival of the jet planes.
Kisiko turned back towards the four figures with a smirk on his face 'I don't know who you four are. But…' He thought, as a smug expression came over his face 'You won't be able to defend the spaceship from us'
As the jet planes became visible to naked eyes, they suddenly started to lose their control in unison. It seemed as if the planes were unable to handle its own weight, as they started to descend towards the ground…where the back portion of the army was standing.
"H-Hey! What the hell is going on?!" One shouted, as he saw to his fright that the planes were descending towards their direction.
"T-They are coming towards us!" Another one shouted.
"Oh Shit!" Another shouted in total fright at the impending doom.
Mass panic spread across the whole army, as they saw that the jet planes lost their control over their flight, and were falling at great speed towards their direction.
And finally, the inevitable happened as the planes crashed right behind the army. The result of the impact was totally catastrophic, as a gigantic explosion of titanic proportion that was never seen by the humanity before, occurred at the plane crash.
The shockwave of the humungous explosion even thrashed away the front portion of the army off their feet, as half of the army that consisted of its back portion was wiped off from the face of the earth, without even leaving behind a trace in its wake.
An enormous mushroom cloud erupted to the sky, as the clouds in the sky moved away in a circular pattern, due to the tremendous force of the explosion.
"Damn…" Kazehana muttered, as she saw the inhuman amount of destruction that was playing before her eyes "Humans really have some dangerous technologies" She muttered casually, without taking her eyes away from the scenery in front of her.
Karasuba merely stared at the scene that was transpiring in front of her with a smirk on her face.
Miya ignored Kazehana's words, as she gazed at destruction in front of her with apathetic eyes. In her mind, she thought that all these people deserved such fate, as they not only tried to enslave her entire race, but were also plotting the downfall of her Ashikabi.
She could never forgive such transgression.
Kisiko stared at destruction brought upon half of his army with a horrified expression. His face then contorted into that of utter rage, as he turned towards the four figures standing on top of the cliff.
"You…" His voice quivered in his rage. After some breathing, he leveled his breathing, as he gazed back at them heatedly. As he looked at them with hate in his eyes, he thought back to the phenomenon, that led to the plane crashing into his army. The way the air current suddenly changed in the upper atmosphere, the way all the plane descended down at once in unison…
Only one person in his knowledge could cause such a phenomenon.
"Tell me…" He spoke loudly for the Sekireis standing on the cliff to hear. Seeing that he got their attention, he continued with narrowed eyes "Is…Naruto Uzumaki behind this!"
All the four Sekireis standing on the cliff recoiled back in extreme shock, at the accusing that was directed at them.
Miya gained a scowl in her feature, as she stared at the human who was trying to blame her Ashikabi. She remembered that if word got out that her Ashikabi was commanding this defence, then it could lead to huge problems for him. This thought caused her scowl to grow even more.
Karasuba frowned at human's accusation "Silence worthless human!" She shouted at the commander of the opposing army, as she glared heatedly back at him "A pathetic weakling like you has right to question us!"
Kisiko snarled at the insult that was directed at him, but smartly remained silent, as he analysed the situation before him. With the way they were speaking to him, he guessed that they were the aliens from the spaceship.
'Hmph, You say that, don't you?' He thought with malicious smile on his face 'Then I guess that what I'm going to say next won't affect you people' He thought, while his smile turned into smirk.
"Well…Then, I guess it's good that Naruto Uzumaki is not involved" He said to them in a calm voice.
Miya, along with Sekireis, furrowed their brows at the commander, but eased up slightly, as they thought that the commander was no longer suspicious of Naruto.
"After all, there's no way that disgusting pest among humans called Naruto Uzumaki would defend you guys"
Something inside Miya snapped, the moment she heard those words of the commander. Her face started to lower, as a shadow was casted over her whole facial features.
"You…" Even Kazehana seemed to have lost her calm, as for the first time in her life; she was looking at someone with pure unadulterated hatred in her eyes for insulting her Ashikabi and beloved "How dare you!" She yelled in her rage.
Karasuba looked absolutely livid at insulting one of the only person she respected and admired in this world "How dare you insult him, you pathetic waste of space!" she shouted with an unbridled rage in her facial expression.
Even Mutsu looked displeased at someone insulting their leader and commander.
Back in the spaceship, Naruto cursed to himself, as he watched proceeding in the battlefield on the screen in front of him.
"Shit!" He cursed to himself, as he saw what the commander of the opposing army wanted to achieve.
Any further thought was cut off from him, as all of a sudden he was hit by a massive wave of emotions out of nowhere. He could define these emotions with pin point accuracy.
Hatred. Lots of hatred. That's what the quantity of the emotional wave represented. His face was sweating heavily under the pressure of emotional weight that had been thrusted upon him all of a sudden.
How? How did this happen? Where did that come from? Why is he affected so severely by them, when no other person in the room looked affected by it.
These questions swirled inside his mind, as he slightly gasped for air, all the while facing the intensity of the emotions that hit him all of a sudden.
"Naruto"
'Kurama!' Naruto yelled in his thought, as tried to reign over his emotions, which was suddenly misbalanced by this unknown source 'What the hell is happening to me?!' He asked in a scream at his inner tenant.
"It's from your Sekireis, Naruto. Or to be more specific, it's from the bonds that you have created with them"
Naruto's eyes widened at the revelation 'The bonds!' He yelled at Kurama 'You mean to say it's on an empathetic level!' The tone of his voice represented just how much shocked he was at this revelation.
"Yes, besides, I think you have more important things to worry about"
'What do mea-' He thought, when he suddenly thought of the source behind emotional wave 'Shit!' He cursed to himself in his mind, as his eyes traced its way back to the screen.
It's at that moment, that he noticed that Matsu too had an enormous change in her expression. Her face had an expression of uncontrolled rage etched on it, as she stared at the figure of the commander on the screen with dark expression. A stark contrast from the one she usually has.
"Naruto" A concerned voice came from Sakura, who had been observing Naruto's face take a transition from that of calm to sweating and gasping.
Naruto glanced at her, as he shook his head "I don't have time to explain" He said, as he fumbled with the earpiece in his right ear.
Back at the battlefield, all the female Sekireis glared with unparalleled hatred at the commander of the invading army.
"Girls!" A voice suddenly came from the earpieces that all the Sekireis were wearing.
"Naru-koi…" Kazehana whispered in surprise, as she heard the voice of her Ashikabi from the earpiece.
"Look. Whatever he says, don't fall for his trap. He is just trying to play with your emotions!"
At his words, all the Sekireis fell silent, as all of Naruto's Sekireis stared with emotionless eyes at the commander in front of them. Kazehana was clenching her fist tightly, as she stared at Kisiko with unforgiving eyes for insulting her Ashikabi.
"You might say that, Naru-kun…" Miya suddenly whispered, as she still hung her head low, with the shadows still casted over her entire face. Her breathing was so low and calm, that one might think she wasn't breathing at all "There are many things in this world that I could tolerate" Her voice was cold and chilling, that sent shivers down the spine of everyone present there, even that of Kisiko "But the one thing that I could never tolerate…" She trailed off, while raising her head, to reveal cold rage filled eyes that could burn even the deepest pits of hell
"Is someone insulting my Ashikabi!"
~~Naruto Shippuuden OST 2 - Track 14 - Shikku ( Foreboding Skies )~~
As she shouted the last part, she suddenly drew her sword from its sheath, and slashed it vertically in front of her in an unearthly speed.
What happened next even left the other three Sekireis standing there in awe, as an enormous shockwave, that even shook the feet of the other three Sekireis, erupted from her sword, and slashed forward in the direction of the army.
The moment the shockwave hit the border where the army was standing, was the moment another disbelieving sight occurred in front their eyes. The instant the shockwave made impact with the ground, a massive explosion took place, and the land beneath the feet of the entire army started to act like water, as it rose upwards in the form of an enormous wave, and swept across the whole army, all the while thrashing several hundred shinobis high up into the sky.
"Arrgg!" One exclaimed, as he was tossed so high up into the sky, that if were to see down, he would only be able see ant sized people.
"Gahh!"
"Fuuuucccckkkk…"
Several voices echoed across the battlefield, as many shinobis continued to be smacked high up into the sky.
The land wave made its way across the entire battlefield within few seconds with its tremendous speed, as it thrashed away half of the army up into the sky, as if they were some mere rag dolls.
With just one slash, Miya had decimated five hundred shinobis on her own.
"Wow…" Karasuba whispered with a smirk, as she eyed the destruction caused by the Sekirei pillar. She turned towards the purplette, with the same smirking expression "It seems I severely underestimated you, Miya" She said, as she once again glanced at the huge dust cloud created in the aftermath of the destruction "You are entirely on a different class of your own"
Both Kazehana and Mutsu stood at their place with a muted expression. They just didn't have any words to express their awe at the prowess of their pillar.
Kisiko, who had miraculously survived the assault and was thrown a lot of distance away from his previous position, saw the destruction caused by one single woman with a horrified expression on his face.
He turned back towards the group of Sekireis with a frightened expression "What the hell are you?!" He screamed at them, as his face expressed just how much terrified he was "What are you!"
Back at the spaceship, all the Konoha shinobis were gawking at the level of destruction that Miya was able to lay out in just one move.
"Holy shit…" Kiba whispered, while looking at the screen with a stunned wide eyed expression on her face.
"I understand how you are feeling, Kiba" Choji said while also looking at the screen, as he too mirrored Kiba's expression.
Matsu adjusted her glass, with a satisfied expression on her face "Served them right" She muttered in a pleased tone, as she looked at the destruction on the screen "That's what they get for insulting our Ashikabi"
Hearing this, Naruto sighed in resignation, as he saw what entailed after the commander of the opposing force insulted him. What Miya did has effectively blown his cover, revealing to them that he was the benefactor of these Sekireis. But even still, he had a small smile etched on his lips, as he saw how protective his Sekireis were of him, even when it came to his dignity.
He suddenly stood up from his sitting position, in effect bringing the attention of all the people in the spaceship to him.
"Naruto?" Sakura voiced out in confusion, as she saw Naruto, who had stood up from his position, starting to walk towards the exit of the spaceship.
Others too noticed this, as they looked at their leader with a confused expression. Matsu stared at her Ashikabi with a concerned expression, as she slightly got the gist of what he going to do through her bond with him.
Naruto turned his head slightly, as he looked back at them with a calm expression "There's no point in hiding anymore" He said to them, as he turned his head back towards the exit gate, with his face setting into a serious expression, as his low tone carried itself over the whole room
"And now, I'm going to finish this battle"
Kisiko cursed, as he saw the unbelievable level of destruction, that only one member of this extraterrestrial race was able to inflict upon his army
'We heavily underestimated them' He thought to himself, while clenching his fist in his anger 'It seems we have to use plan B'
As he thought this, he turned his head towards now reduced to quarter army, and shouted at them with a loud voice "It's time to release our secret weapon!"
Many shinobis nodded at their leader, as one shinobi came up to the front, with various seals etched all over his body. He looked as if he had undergone a heavy tattoo scabbing.
Suddenly, a heavy aura washed all over the place, as the seal covered shinobi was suddenly covered in a dense red aura. Then, without any warning, the entire aura condensed into his skin, as he started to change in terms of shape, color and size.
At the end of the whole ordeal, there standing in the middle of the battlefield, towering at an impressive height while casting a huge shadow over the land, was the seven tailed biju, the Nanabi.
All the Sekireis, even Miya, took a step back in shock, as they stared at the enormous body of the seven tailed beast with wide shocked eyes.
"W-What is that!" Kazehana exclaimed, as she felt dangerous aura through the wind coming from the giant hovering Biju.
Miya tightly clutched her sword, as she eyed the large flying biju with wary eyes "Whatever it is, we have to deal it" she said to her group.
~~Naruto Shippuuden Movie 4 Soundtrack 26-~~
Suddenly, out of nowhere, overly large trees sprouted from the ground from all the directions of the battlefield, and shot towards the hovering biju in the air at high speed.
Within seconds, the seven tailed biju was entirely constricted in the grips of the enormous wooden tentacles.
"Wh-What!" One Shinobi shouted, as he saw the phenomenon.
"Where did those come from!" Another shouted, as he looked around frantically, to find the source.
All the Sekireis looked at the scene, with confusion etched on their face, as they tried to comprehend what just happened right now.
Kisiko, on the other hand, had an entirely frightened expression on his face, as he saw the the large trees constricting the hovering biju.
'No…no, nononononoNO!' He thought in a frantic state, as a look of pure panic appeared on his visage 'There's only one person capable of using Mokuton to this level in this age…' He thought, as his fear escalated to another level at the mere thought of this, as his pupil dilated in total fright 'And that person is…'
"This battle has gone for too long" A voice reverberated across the whole battlefield, which made every shinobi present there tense.
And then, in unison, everyone turned towards the source of the voice, only for every shinobi present in the battlefield to gain a frightened expression on their visage, as they got a good look on the person who has arrived at the battlefield.
For the one standing at the edge of a different cliff, was none other than the Greatest Shinobi Ever, Naruto Uzumaki.
"Naru-Koi!" Kazehana exclaimed in shock, at seeing her Ashikabi out in the battlefield.
"Naru-kun…" Miya whispered in a stunned voice, as the other Sekireis stood in shocked expression, for not only at his appearance, but also to find that he was responsible for the creation of the enormous tree tentacles.
Naruto suddenly jumped high up into the air from his position, and landed directly in front of the four Sekireis, as he stared at all the Shinobis in front of him with his piercing blue eyes.
"N-No…It can't be…" One shinobi muttered in total fright, as he saw who they were now going to face.
"We-We are doomed!" Another exclaimed, looking absolutely terrified at the prospect of fighting this new opponent.
Kisiko was not faring all too well himself, as he stared at Naruto with a fearful look in his eyes 'We are really doomed' He thought.
All the Sekirei saw the sea of reactions, that was released upon the sight of Naruto, and gained a confused expression on their visage.
'Naru-kun…' Miya thought, while looking at Naruto 'Are you really that much legendary among these people, that it made them frightened to this level?'
Naruto ignored all the reactions surrounding him, as he stared at the constricted Nanabi with narrowed eyes. Then, without any warning, he raised his right hand in front of him.
As if on cue, the biju started to let out a pained cry, as a huge chunk of chakra started to ooze out of its body. Then, in a sudden motion, all the chakra shot out from its previous position, leaving behind the dead form of the Jinchuriki in its place.
All the chakra, that was pulled from the Jinchuriki, reformed a few distance away from Naruto, and took the form of seven tailed beast.
"Choumei" Naruto muttered calmly, as he saw the reformed form of Nanabi.
Releasing a slight breathe in relief, Choumei a.k.a Nanabi turned Naruto with a smile "Naruto" The seven tails greeted.
Naruto had a regretful look on his face, as he looked at Choumei "Choumei" He called out once again, as a sad look appeared on his face "I'm sorry that you had to go through all that" He said to the biju, as he looked down with a shameful expression "I had sincerely hoped that they would treat you better than this"
Choumei shook her head, as she looked at Naruto with a smile "Don't worry Naruto" She said to him, which instantly made him raise his head to her. She continued on "We all make mistakes, Naruto. In your case, you thought that everyone would be just like you"
Saying that, the Biju disappeared away from the battlefield.
"Yes…that's true" Naruto muttered to himself, as turned back to the army in front of him, an action which frightened the later to extreme level.
"As for you people" He said loudly, as most shinobis started take steps back in a retreat motion. Naruto narrowed his eyes at them, as he continued in a cold tone "You people are going to pay for all this"
~~Naruto Shippuden OST 2 - Track 02 - Rinkai ( Critical state )~~
As he said this, all the shinobis in the battleground started to glow blue in their body outline.
Every shinobi present there looked around at each other in confusion and fright.
"W-What is going on?!" One shouted in a fearful tone.
Another had a frightful look on his face "I-I don't know. But I'm scared! This is Naruto Uzumaki we are talking about!"
And then all of a sudden, the earth beneath them started to crumble, as every shinobi present there started float up into the air, with their body outline illuminated in blue glow.
And then, a sudden force came out of nowhere, as the entire remaining army was flung high up into the air in a sudden bout of speed.
"Whaa….!"
"Aaaahhhhh!"
Large chunks of earth also started to levitate up into the air along with the shinobis, as they continued to sail high up into the atmosphere.
Then, without any warning, they were suddenly thrust back into the ground with a mighty force.
"Argghhh!"
"Noooooooo!"
Every shinobi was screaming in utter fright, as they experienced something that they never had in their entire life…that was, being flung around rag dolls.
Then in unison, the entire army, that was soaring up in the sky, went down crashing back to the ground in huge impact, and created a sufficient dust cloud in its wake.
"What…." Karasuba stared dumbly at the scene in front of her, as she tried to comprehend what she saw just right now.
The other three Sekireis were on the same train with Karasuba, in terms of expression.
Naruto stared at scenery in front of him with his narrowed eyes "I'm not done with you people…" He whispered, as he raised both his arms to his sides, as his Rinnegan suddenly flared to life.
~~Naruto Shippuuden OST 2 - Track 13 - Nankou Furaku ( Impregnable )~~
Suddenly, thousands of massive pillars of lava erupted from the ground across the entire battlefield, and shot up to the sky in frightening speed.
"Gah! What the hell!" One shinobi screamed, as he looked at the phenomenon occurring around their army with utter fright.
The entire army was in total panic, as they were utterly lost at what to do.
Then, to their utter fright and terror, all the pillars of lava started to converge towards one focal point high up in the sky, and started to the shape of an enormous dragon, that was so large that it could swallow an entire hidden village in its size.
Every person bearing witness to this sight had large unbelieving eyes on their visage.
"You got to be kidding me…" One shinobi said, as he stared dumbly at the unearthly sized lava dragon up in the sky with wide disbelieving eyes.
Suddenly, the lava dragon let out a huge roar, which shook the entire battlefield, as it started to descend down upon the army of shinobis.
All in unison, the faces of the mass of shinobis started to morph from that of shock to total fright and panic.
"Ohhh Shit!" One yelled out, as he started to run into opposite direction. Others too copied his action, as one by one, the entire army ran to escape from the jaws of the enormous lava dragon, that was quickly speeding towards them.
The lava dragon suddenly started to glow a bright red, as it neared the army. And then, when it finally impacted with ground, a huge explosion rang throughout the landscape, throwing several hundred shinobis off their feet to a few distances away.
Majority of the army, at the end of the ordeal, were left lying on the ground, groaning in pain at the impact.
~~[Naruto Shippuuden Original Soundtrack 2] 18 – Kokuten~~
Naruto didn't pay any heed to this, as his Rinnegan eyes glowed brightly, while he raised one of his hand towards the sky.
Every shinobi, who noticed this action from Naruto, turned their heads up to the sky, and felt their eyes threatening to bug out of their eye socket.
The reason for this was clear, as up in the sky, massive dark clouds started to sway rapidly towards several focal points, and started to spiral down in enormous funnel shapes.
In simple words, Naruto was creating several typhoons over the army.
"He's controlling the nature…" Kisiko, who had somehow survived up until now, said with a pure frightened expression on his visage "He's freaking controlling the nature!" He shouted out in disbelief.
"Aarrggghhh!" Everyone screamed in fright, as they got lifted off their feet, and started to move in mid air in a spiral motion due to the five typhoons, that by now connected themselves to the ground.
Slowly, all the five typhoon that were wreaking havoc across the whole battlefield, started to close up against each other, and merged into one single large enormous typhoon, that invoked terror across all the shinobis, who were caught in the path of the fury of nature.
Back in the spaceship, Matsu already had glass slid off her face to the ground, as she stared at the screen, which showed the proceeding in the battlefield, with a pure stunned and disbelieving expression on her face.
Slowly, she turned her trembling form towards the other occupants of the room, and stared at them with her wide shocked eyes "Did…Did all that just happen?" She asked them, with a stunned expression on her face.
Sasuke smiled wryly, as he stared at the screen "It's been so long, since I have seen his prowess in the battlefield" He said, while still wearing that same smile.
"Yeah…" Sakura sighed, as a nostalgic smile came over her face, while looking at the screen "It's no wonder that Naruto is called the God in human flesh"
Others nodded in agreement, as Matsu turned back towards the screen, to stare at her Ashikabi's form with an amazed look on her face 'Naru-tan…' She thought.
As the whole area cleared, with the enormous typhoon vanishing away, a heavily damaged battlefield was all that was left behind in the aftermath, with all the shinobi that had came here being wiped off the face of earth.
Miya, along with all the other Sekireis, stood at their place with stunned expressions on their faces, while remaining unmoved since the start of Naruto's power show.
As it all ended, Naruto let out a remorseful sigh, as looked at all the destruction he had inflicted. He was never the one for so much violence. Sure, he loved to fight. But that was just his competitive side. His peace loving nature never allowed him to get any sort of satisfaction from all these destructions.
But then again, that's what him Naruto Uzumaki to all the others, a messiah.
"Naruto!"
Naruto turned his head back, to see all the Konoha shinobis, along with Matsu standing behind him, along with the four Sekireis.
"Naru-tan!" Matsu yelled, as she dashed in his direction, and suddenly engulfed him in a tight embrace.
"M-Matsu" Naruto whispered out in confusion, as he instinctively wrapped his arms around her body.
Matsu's voice seem to snap Naruto's other three Sekireis out of their trance, as they too dashed in Naruto's direction, and engulfed him in an all around body embrace.
"Eh?...Girls?" Naruto voiced out, as he eyed all of his Sekireis with confusion evident on his face.
"Naru-tan…you were simply fabulous!" Matsu spoke out in an exited voice, as she looked up at him with adoration in her eyes.
Naruto simply scratched the back of his head with a grin etched on his face, as his cheeks were dusted with pink hue in his embarrassment.
Kazehana too looked at her Ashikabi with loving eyes "That was so manly of you, my love" She said while caressing his cheeks.
Karasuba, who behind Naruto, nibbled his ears with her teeth "You got me so horny, Naru-chan" She whispered into his ears, eliciting a blush from Naruto. Karasuba continued on "I'm going to ride your hips, until both our hips are broken"
"Karasuba…" Miya said, as an uncharacteristic smirk came over her lips "The only one he is going to take the virginity first is me"
"Miya!" Naruto yelled with a scandalous look on his face, as his face resembled that of a tomato.
Miya, along with all the other three female Sekireis, giggled at Naruto's expense. As this happened, all of Naruto's friends too chuckled at his expense.
In the end, Naruto let a gentle smile tug his lips, as he saw everyone settling into a jovial state. Getting out of his Sekirei's embrace, which didn't receive, Naruto raised his hand in the direction of the spaceship.
As if on cue, the whole spaceship started levitate itself from the ground, and hovered in mid air.
All the Sekireis looked on with an amazed expression on their faces, as all of Naruto's friends chuckled amusedly at Naruto showcasing his powers.
"Naru-kun…"
Miya's sudden voice gained Naruto's attention, as he looked at his first Sekirei curiously.
Seeing that she got his attention, Miya continued with a curious look "How did gain this power?...How did you become so powerful?"
Hearing Miya's question, Naruto looked up at the sky, with calm smile on his face "That Miya…is a long story"
Saying this, Naruto started to walk in the direction where his home village was, as the levitating ship also followed behind him. All his fellow companions followed his footsteps, as all his Sekireis walked beside him with a tired, yet happy smile on their faces.
"But" Naruto suddenly said, as he looked at all the four Sekireis of his, with a gentle smile on his lips "Since there is a lot of time till we reach the village, I could tell you the entire history of my life" He said, as he looked forward with the same smile etched on his face.
All of the female Sekireis smiled happily at this, while scooting closer to Naruto, as he started to narrate his entire life to his group of Sekireis.
Behind them, Naruto's friends chuckled to themselves, as they heard Naruto narrating some of his funniest moments and pranks to his Sekireis.
And with this, Naruto, along with all his chuckling friends and Sekireis, started to walk towards a new life, with new adventures awaiting them in the future.
Phew! That's the third chapter for you all. Hope you all liked the fight scenes.
Okay, now onto the United Shinobi Council…Well, its something that I created, to keep this fic interesting.
Don't worry. Naruto would never lose his position as a Hokage, nor would he ever be discredited. He would forever be remaining as the most loved figure by the public. I would ensure you of that.
That's it for now, folks. If you liked this chap, then please leave your precious review.
