Barbarian Invasion
Ch. 3
The Saga of Naruto
A/N: Sorry this chapter has taken so long to get up but now with school out I should have some time now. Some definitions, in the western world those who would have been ninja are called rix a term meaning king or chief, they are the elites in a tribe and are often the ones who are the ruling clan, superior to all of the other clans related to them and have abilities the other clans don't have. (An example of this would be someone who was VERY distantly related to the Hyuuga clan, they may have the same facial structure but they would be subtle differences and they would never be as strong) However being related it does mean that a rix class warrior will sometimes come out of the ranks or a particularly weak individual will be demoted and some times there are more then one clan with a majority of rix warriors, in that case the clans will compete to show the rest of the tribe who is the strongest clan a.k.a. the clan who has the right to rule. Outside the tribe itself each of the tribes clash constantly with each other. This has resulted in a ferocious warrior culture where even the weakest ordinary warrior could break elite samurai over their knee.
I OWN NOTHING
Sakura stared in utter shock until in a weak voice she asked, "Naruto? Is that you?"
"A'course it's me! Ye daft bitch!" Naruto roared, his cold exterior changing immediately in to a raging inferno.
"Sorry! It's just that you've changed so much!" Sakura yelped, flinching at the rage that came off the giant.
Naruto snorted, then grumbled, "Ah giss ah have changed eh bit."
"You defiantly aren't the same do… ERRK!" Sasuke what shut up by Naruto massive ham of a hand around his neck and a huge battleaxe that could have given Zabuza'a zanputo a run for its money in sheer mass was brandished in his face.
"Tell me Sasuke, d'ye really want t'say tha'?" When Sasuke shut up, Naruto dropped the man on his hindquarters.
"What happened to you Naruto? The Naruto I knew would never be like this." Kakashi asked shocked at how Naruto treated Sakura who, as best he remembered, had the crush of the century on her.
Naruto looked at Kakashi said, "So th'now ye care. Tha' lad died ten years ego. But his rebirth was sumthin' t'see." He turned to a burly chieftain sitting at the table and shouted, "Talesin, sing our guests me Saga!"
The chieftain leaped up onto the table and took out a huge war hammer and started pounding the table in a simple beat then he belted out into a chanted tune. (Think Beowulf, Hrothgar's song)
Ten years ago the Roman's ruled and pillaged and burned and slayed,
And our folk began to think our hope was to be dead.
But from the mountains to the East the land of the sun he came.
And he was to avenge our shame, and boys what was his name?!
Naruto! Naruto! Naruto! Naruto!
So the story continued about how Naruto had been found by a small mountain tribe, the Ui Niall, and had been adopted into the clan. After five years, Naruto had grown strong and tall and been engaged to a girl from the tribe. Hinata near had a heart attack at this point however a week before they would have tied the knot a cohort (800) of Roman troopers had come, demanding tribute. The men were gone on a hunting trip and when the women who were still there refused the Roman used severe capital punishment.
They took half of the women of the tribe which included Naruto's fiancé and had executed them by ramming a spear UP into their uterus. They then took as much valuables as they could and left. When Naruto had come back and had seen his beloved's corpse skewered like a roast pig the reaction wasn't pretty.
His eyes they turned a blood shot red, his nails they turned to claws.
The silhouette of a mighty fox, big strong, and braw.
Appeared around his warrior frame but felly three tails.
And as his clansmen watched him there grew yet another tail.
And another grew and another grew until there was twice of four.
And as his clansmen stood and stared there would yet grow one more.
And after the ninth tail did appear the fox form was no more.
It had all contracted back into his normal human form.
After this Naruto bellowed a war cry that shook the very mountains, then charged after the Romans. His clansmen found him having already ripped apart every single one of the 800. After this display the tribes of the mountains had hailed Naruto as the chosen of Esus, the trickster god and the god of Fire and whose animal totem was (you guessed it) the fox.
After all of the mountains tribes had united under Naruto they had gone on a savage campaign to rid of the lands of Gaul (as they called their culture's homeland) of all Roman influence.
Across Gaul the Gaels rose up against the Roman and wreaked bloody revenge against them.
The most blatant exception was the powerful and huge Carnute tribe. They had started this whole mess with Roma, when they had asked for help against the Nordii (a different culture) who had been raiding Gaul. The Romans used this as an excuse to invade Gaul and having the aid of the singularly most powerful tribe, conquered all of Gaul. The Carnutes were an odd bunch as they were as a rule slight of build, pale of skin, and dark of hair. Their clan's power was the ability to copy anything thrown at them as if they had studied it their whole life. Their copying powers came from their eyes which when activated would turn blood red and three black teardrop shapes would appear around their pupil in a triangle form. The whole Konoha group started at that Naruto grinned.
Their leader, Gutruatus, had thrown his mighty tribe behind the Roman banner. Naruto called Gutruatus to single combat but instead Gutruatus fled to his chief oppidia (Fort-town) and was holed up with nearly his whole tribe and the Roman army.
Naruto had taken the city by blasting a whole through the gates with his mighty Rasega. (HINT HINT) The Carnutes and the Romans were defeated and both groups were almost obliterated, women and children alike. Traitors deserved death, was Naruto reason, none thought he was wrong, some thought he was too lenient.
And so our freedom was assured the Romans slain or fled.
And the blood of foe and traitor alike mad the ground bright red.
He came from the mountains to the East, the land where the sun does rise.
He who did become our king, and what is the name we cry?
Naruto! Naruto! Naruto! Naruto!
NARUTO! NARUTO! NARUTO! NARUTO!
NARUTORIX GO BRAGH!!
The entire camp roared with the cry and the sound of 400,000 male voices made they very earth shake with their pounding and bellowing.
Naruto grinned again and said, "An' tha' is wha' happed t'me."
