As Naruto and his companions approached the border, they felt so relieved that they made it to the border without another bad incident.

"I wonder if they have border control to stop us" said Naruto?

"No the Rock ninjas can't spare the man power to come this far so they probably have some military personnel surround the city to keep from being attacked" said Lee, as he looked as Sakura wondering if she was alright.

"Hey I see someone it looks like my friend Kimora; it is, hey Kimora-chan" said Naruto with the biggest smile on his face.

"Naruto I missed you, how have you been" said Kimora as she gave a smile right back?

"I receive you message for help so I came a.s.a.p." said Naruto as she came and grabbed his hand.

"So Naruto-kun are you ready to meet the elder Sugawa he is my father and the one who asked for you personally Naruto-kun."

Naruto companions were shock that this young ninja woman and Naruto were calling each other kun and chan as if they were more than friends. Sakura was really getting angry at Naruto's behavior.

"Who is she to call him Naruto-kun"? What if Hinata overheard them talking like that how would she take Naruto's flirting" thought Sakura?

"Let's hurry said Kimora we have a lot of planning to go over but first we have to talk to our ANBU and jonins with my father" she said.

As they reach the camp she gave order to go get the captain and her father.

"So Naruto did you give any thought to about our engagement" she said with a grand smile?

"Well I thought we would wait until we both become Kage's" said Naruto as he laughed along with her.

All of a sudden Neji grabbed Naruto by the collar and said "what the hell are you talking about marriage with her for? Did you forget my cousin the woman you suppose to love"?

"Calm down said Naruto we are just having a little fun."

"Fun? Not talking marriage with some woman you barely know" screamed Neji!

"Hey bright eyes let go of Naruto-kun, he's just my friend and if you touch him again as she pulled out a sword," I will cut out those pale eyes of yours out of your skull" said Kimora.

"Don't threaten me because I will make you eat every little word that comes out your mouth."

"Enough said the ANBU captain and Toru Sugawa "as they came to stop the escalation between the two.

"What's all this about" asked her father?

"Bright eyes over there was attacking Naruto-kun for just talking to me."

"Enough we have a dire situation at hand we don't need any distractions, Naruto are you truly the student of Jiraiya" as Toru looked at Naruto?

"I was his disciple", said Naruto.

"You never mention that when I last met you, I was so shocked when Tsunade told me. That's why you were able to do those jutsu no other ninja could possibly do? I thought it was Kakashi that was your sensei that's what our Intel told us about you, I guess we have to get better information analyst" said Toru."

"He was my teacher too; we just don't tell everyone Jiraiya trained me for security reasons" said Naruto.

As Naruto began to talk to Toru, he noticed that Neji and Sakura were still looking angry about what had happened earlier. He decided to ease their minds especially Neji's.

"Neji you should trust me a little more were comrades but were friends first above all, Hinata is my world" said Naruto as sincerely as he could to her cousin.

Neji felt great shame he never felt before, as long as he known Naruto he liked him but he never really thought Naruto considered him a friend until today.

"I'm sorry Naruto and Kimora I let my emotions get the best of me" said Neji.

As Naruto looked over he could see Kimora looking hurt as if she wanted to die, her eyes were misty and it looked as if she was about to cry.

"I will be right back said Kimora "I... uhn umm... Have. To get...the map of the village... uhm ummm yeah that's it" she said.

As she ran off Sakura looked at her" so she does love him" she said to herself.

"She sure does, "yelled "Arukas.

"Shut up! Not now" as Sakura tried to quell the voice in her head!

"I even like the way Naruto look now a days. I have plenty of… wait I take that back, WE HAVE PLENTY OF DREAMS OF NARUTO IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT" said Arukas laughing so loud in Sakura's head that she started to get annoyed?

"QUIT SAYING THAT GET OUT OF MY HEAD, I DON'T WANT TO HEAR IT, BE QUIET."

Arukas just laughed more and aggravated her more," just admit it, you did have some feelings for him and I will be quiet" she said.

"NEVER"! Yelled Sakura so loud that it freaked everyone out in ear shot.

All eyes were on Sakura, "did I say that out loud like that" Sakura thought to herself?

"Sakura -chan are you all right" said Lee and Naruto together looking kind of scared for her reply?

Sakura turned crimson red she could not even think of any type of justification for that outburst.

"Just day dreaming she said. Great now they will think I take my daydreams too serious" she thought to herself.

As Toru Sagawa gave a doubtful look at Sakura he turned to Naruto.

"They claim that this Atkuski ninja is just standing in the middle of the village and every time someone attacks him five other ninjas come to protect him, each has a unique skill."

"That's Pein but how is he alive screamed Naruto? How long will it take me to reach the center of the village" asked Naruto as he started to prepare for battle?

"About five minutes" said Toru.

"Keep your ninjas back, in fact keep them away period I'll handle this alone as Naruto sounded enraged. Neji, Lee, Sakura, look for other Atkuski members here in the village they may be using henge technique so be careful. Lee how long will it take you to scout around this area running at top speed?"

1 or 2 min" said Lee?

"Do it. Neji can you search for unusual chakra in that area by the woods, usually there is someone who likes to watch from a distance to see if things are going as planned to report it back to their leader, that looks like a great spot there to look at everything at once" said Naruto.

Everyone seem so impressed by Naruto especially Toru, his comrades were really shocked at how he was handling things with such confidence and intelligence.

Kimora returned with the map, "see he's north by north east here" she said.

"He plans on destroying the center of the village it's the perfect spot for his jutsu" said Naruto.

"What? Why it will cause great economic damage from this terrorist attack we are not technically at war here, he just showed up and took out some of our best ninjas" said Kimora.

"I found someone hiding in the woods just like you said, but he's just lying there not moving at all" said Neji.

"Okay you three capture him, I'm heading to the center of the village, be careful."

As his comrades sped toward their opposition Kimora walked over to Naruto.

"Naruto there is something I must tell you; just then her father came over and politely pulled Kimora to the side.

"Don't tell me you were going to tell him how you felt right before a battle?"

She looked down at her feet.

"Kimora he doesn't need that on his mind at all, he is about to face a very powerful ninja keep it to yourself; if you love him tell him after the battle "he said.

"What if he dies and he will never know that I love him?"

"Kimora I asking their Hokage for an arrange marriage with you and Naruto. I know that she will agree Naruto is an orphan with no parents she will agree for the sake of peace. So don t worry he will make a fine husband and a great father. Just be patient Kimora and everything will go as planned for Naruto and you" said Toru.

As Neji, Lee, and Sakura closed in on their target something just did not feel right among the woods they were in. "Neji use your Byakugan to see if there is anything to watch for" said Lee.

As Neji scope out the landscape he noticed that the whole area was covered in chakra making it hard to pinpoint anything.

"We are in deep trouble" said Neji.

His companions turn to him and asked what's wrong?

"This is a powerful chakra that can hide everything from me. I'm no help on this one we need to watch ourselves very carefully.

As Sakura yelled for Neji to keep a lookout, she put on her gloves and concentrated her chakra into her hands" prepare yourselves I have an idea."

Sakura ran with her concentrated chakra in her hand and struck the ground, with that one punch it was like a miniature earthquake that shook everything within fifty feet. Lee and Neji stumbled with extreme shock from Sakura's brute strength.

"There to the left a figure just moved" said Neji.

Lee took of a high speed and tried a savant kick to the hiding ninja.

"Not bad said the mysterious ninja holding Lee's foot but not good enough" as he threw Lee back and quickly made a hand sign.

"Who are you" said Sakura as she wondered what type of jutsu he just performed?

The strange half black, half white side man said nothing. Neji attacked quickly, he looked at Neji and dodged every single blow that was thrown and kicked. Neji jumped to the side of him an elbowed him behind the neck.

Lee charged and threw half dozen punches but could not connect once; the strange looking man disappeared and came and hit Lee so hard in the back of the neck he gasped for air. Sakura could not understand it why were Lee and Neji all of sudden fighting each other? The strange man just looked at Sakura.

"Why is she unfazed by my genjutsu?"

"Lee, Neji stop you're caught in a jutsu your fighting each other."

Neji and Lee fought on for they couldn't hear Sakura's plea to stop fighting.

"Why isn't Sakura helping me "thought Lee?

At the same moment Neji thought the exact same thing.

"Something is wrong, where's Lee"?

"Wait he's over there but why isn't he helping me "thought Neji?

But he was looking at the strange looking man in front of him and Lee saw the black and white man in front of him and Neji watching him battle.

Suddenly Sakura struck the ground again knocking all three of balance, Sakura ran toward Lee an inserted her chakra inside him. Lee seen now that he was fighting Neji. Neji looked at Sakura strange and wonder why would she help that strange looking man then he realized that he was under a jutsu so powerful it fooled even his Byakugan. Lee and Sakura approached Neji; Sakura inserted her chakra inside of him. Now they were looking at the man who tricked them as he began to feel nervous.

"I tried every jutsu on her from afar and nothing, what kind of training does she has to resist me like that? Not even a Kage can resist me, even Itachi could not break away easily from my jutsu but she is unfazed by everything. I better leave I'm not the fighting type I will have to report this."

All of sudden Neji rush him, hitting five pressure point making him drop to one knee.

"Got you "said Neji!

He looked up and said "not bad, I will love to gnaw on your flesh when we meet again, but I can still escape, my body is strong enough to withstand some damage. EARTH BOUND PROTECTIVE SHEILD".

As he made the hand sign and disappeared.

"What the hell was that thing and how come you were not affected by his genjutsu Sakura" said Lee as he approached her?

"Later let's get back to Naruto, he may need us."

"Zetsu" why are you back so soon" said the shadowy figure?

The Jinchuriki (tailed beast) and his friends, I have been watching them they have become very powerful especially that Jinchuriki. He is about to face Pein again and I think he will defeat him again, the legend may be true of this Jinchuriki he may bring peace to this world what do you think?"

"He maybe the one but he can still be killed said the shadowy figure. Go back and tell me if Pein kills this annoying Jinchuriki leave now."

As Naruto started walking to the center of the village he could tell that it was a least four watching him.

"I better go into sage mode" he thought. As he approached the center of the village he saw Pein sitting on the stairs of the council hall.

"Still fighting without a reason I see" said Pein.

"How are you still alive? I thought you wanted true peace" as Naruto began to steadily stalk his former teacher's student?

"Peace is just an illusion you still don't realize that do you' said Pein.

All of sudden Animal Pein tried to get behind Naruto; with a quick spin Naruto threw two kunais into his chest and then threw one at the Deva Realm Pein on the stairs. Pein manage to dodge as he stood up and had another body come down and attack Naruto from above. As the Hungry Ghost Pein came from the air a shadow clone of Naruto's kicked him away from the original Naruto. As the Animal Pein pulled the kunais out his chest he regrouped with the others to finish off Naruto.

"Nicely done said Pein. Let's see if you can handle all six of me" said Deva Pein.

As all of them stood next to the Deva Pein they waited for Naruto to make a move, Naruto pulled out three kunai and hurled them at Demon Realm, Hell Realm and Human Real Pein's. Each Pein caught the kunai.

"You did not even throw it hard, what are you planning" said Deva Pein?

Naruto just looked at the Deva Pein in the Middle then without even noticing two Naruto clones came an yelled" Rasengan Shuriken" (elemental Rasengan) as two of the Pein's body felt it come from the front, the middle Pein ducked just in time. Naruto with a blink of an eye delivered a Rasengan to the Hell Realm Pein.

"I didn't have time to repel them thought Deva Pein to himself. How did he get those clones so close to me without me noticing and what kind of speed and power did he give those clones? They can't be that powerful but somehow they're still standing and didn't disappear after that Rasengan."

"Naruto just stood there and looked at Pein, I learned a few new tricks" said Naruto.

Pein looked at his bodies they were destroyed on a cellular level they were almost unrecognizable to him.

"I better be careful, he is moving faster and he just took out three bodies somehow".

"Let's get this over with Pein; I have this village to save."

Naruto clones pulled out some kunai and threw them in every direction, Naruto placed his hand "Kage Bunshin no Jutsu" and formed 2 more clones.

"That's it you only formed 2 clones you must be getting weaker Naruto, five clones can't defeat me" said Pein.

Naruto yelled "Hiraishin no Jutsu - (Flying Thunder God Technique)"Pein quickly was able to stop the attack by destroying two of the clones with his Shinra Tensei but Naruto was able to destroy the other two Pein bodies only leaving the Deva Pein.

"That's it, that is how you destroyed my bodies with Hiraishin no Jutsu of the Fourth Hokage" said Pein? I see I have to be careful "said the Deva Pein. Now I see what I need to do. As Pein confronted Naruto one on one again he said I could repel you anytime now then I'll kill you."

The Naruto clones smiled" do it and you will die."

Pein started to get worried he was not actually the taijutsu type and if he repelled the clones Naruto would definitely kill him in an instant he thought.

All of sudden the Naruto clones disappeared; Naruto started to look exhausted and weak. Well well well, I see that you can only do all those techniques in sage mode but it wears down your chakra drastically, I think I will have a little fun from here on out" said Deva Pein.

Deva Pein hit Naruto with a punch so hard Naruto was lifted up in the air by that punch. "Now this is the end Naruto".

"Chibaku Tensei" yelled Deva Pein."

Deva Pein waited for the dust to clear as he smiled "chosen one Hhhhmmphh how can that be when you're dead, I guess I was wrong about you bringing peace "he said out loud.

"Dead, I'm right here" said Naruto.

"Impossible said Pein no one can survive that, no one ever have, where are you; show yourself right now" said Pein with extreme anger.

"Look to your right" said Naruto.

Pein could not believe his eyes Naruto had a blue chakra around his body an on the outside of the blue chakra he had the Kyuubi red chakra and five tails.

"I told you I picked up a couple of new tricks" said Naruto.

Pein backed up in fear he could not believe it" how can I kill this Jinchuriki?"

Pein made a couple of hand signs "FIRE BALL FROM HELL JUSTSU" screamed Pein as four fireball struck Naruto dead on the mark.

"Did it work is he dead" thought Pein? As the dust moved away Naruto just smiled as he had his signature Rasengan in his hand spinning.

"My turn" said Naruto Kyuubi Fang Rasengan Jutsu" said Naruto as he charged Pein and struck him in the middle of his chest.

As flash of circling red chakra surrounded Deva Pein he screamed in agony, as his entire body shook and formed tiny cuts all over his body, Pein was defeated.

"You can control the Nine Tail Fox now" said Pein?

Naruto shook his head, "no but we have an understanding, you always ask me what I fight for… hope. You should understand Pein hatred is a cycle but there are some who want to make a brighter future to help others even from other villages. Hope brings love, love brings understanding, and understanding brings brotherhood. The last time we battled I told you I would do my best to bring peace to this world, I kept my promise and with the help of other nations and its people peace is not far from our reach. I don't know how you came back to life but it was for naught" as Naruto stood over his enemy.

As Naruto was walking away from Pein he heard "stop, Naruto you are in grave danger and not from me but the others said Pein. I will not live this day for telling you this but all that you hold dear and cherish they will try to take away from you. I am powerful but there are two that are more powerful than I am, I'm sure that since they will hear of my defeat they will definitely come for you."

"Why tell me Pein, I thought you just wanted my death" said Naruto?

"Only peace if it comes through you and if you die peace will never be achieved. I fight you not on my own free will but for the selfish reasons of others" as Pein smiled at Naruto.

"Who are the ones after me and where are you Nagato" said Naruto?

"The Uchiha's, both of them but for different reasons, one wants to destroy the village and see you as an obstacle, the other wants you as a weapon. I don't know where I'm at but it must be at the one's hideout who can control me" as the Deva Pein body started to look weaker by the second.

"Sasuke and Madara are after me, are they the one's controlling you" said Naruto?

"I don't know if they are the true one's controlling me, you may have improved but the skills they have are the most frightening I ever witness when I was alive, this body is about to fade into death you have proven yourself to me again, save this world and protect the people Naruto."

As the Deva Pein passed away Naruto knew Nagato was also dead. Naruto thought Orochimaru had something to do with this but he was killed by Naruto over four years ago when he battled him when he took over Kabuto's body.

"We saw you defeat him said Lee what was he talking to you about?"

"Sasuke" said Naruto."

There was an uncomfortable silence. "Let's go said Sakura we have to talk to Toru Sagawa and his daughter Kimora about this mission" as Naruto thought about what Nagato told him.
