Chapter 7: Naruto vs. Orochimaru Part 2 and the Fourth Hokage

Orochimaru jumped back and ran though a series of hand signs. "Earth Release Shadow Clone," The snake man yelled. Two copies of Orochimaru papered next to him. The copies charged him while the real Orochimaru jumped away. 'Damn it! I never thought he would be this tough! I'm getting tried,' he thought. He frowned as he saw his clones torn apart with ease. A sixth tail was forming. Naruto looked at him and roared. A large ball of red chakra was forming. Orochimaru's eyes widen as it shot forward towards him. "Summoning: Triple Rashomon," Orochimaru yelled and slammed his hands down. Three gates appeared. 'This should stop his attack. Few attacks can break the gates. The first gate, the red takes the attack. The second gate, the green, reduces the power of the attack. The final and blue gate removes the remaining pressure.' Much to Orochimaru's shock and horror, the charka ball blasted through the first gate like it was nothing. The second gate only held it for a few second and then broke. The third gate broke the moment it was touched. Orochimaru yelled as the ball hit him. He quickly summoned a large snake who took the rest of the blow. Orochimaru jumped back and shot out large groups of snakes. Naruto roared and burnt them with charka. Orochimaru eyes widened with an idea. Orochimaru sent out another large group of snakes. He then summoned another large snake. The snake looked at him and hissed. Orochimaru drew a kunai and killed the snake. 'O well,' Orochimaru thought. Orochimaru went though a set of hand signs and then yelled, "Summoning: Impure World Resurrection." A coffin rose from the ground. It opened to revel a woman. She had long red hair and a pale face. She wore ANBU armor. She looked around and her eyes widened when she saw Naruto. Orochimaru threw a tag at the woman. "Kushina, I order you to kill Naruto. Use any means to do so."

"That voice. Orochimaru? You bastard," Kushina yelled. Orochimaru just pointed at Naruto. "Red Charka? Kyuubi's charka. Oh shit! He lost control. NARUTO! FIGHT THE KYUUBI!" Kushina rushed at Naruto, doing hand signs. "Water Release: Water Shark Missile!" A large shark made out of water shot forward at Naruto. The shark hit Naruto causing him to slide back. The sixth tail was done forming, and another was starting to take form. Kushina's face grew pale as the seventh tail began to form. Orochimaru stepped back with a panic looked.

'It seems I have underestimated him. Kushina will stale him, while I retreat,' Orochimaru thought with a frown. He turned and jumped away from the battle. Naruto saw this and growled. He slashed Kushina away and chased after Orochimaru. Kushina lay on the ground unable to move. 'Break free . . . my baby boy,' Kushina thought with tears running down her face.

Guan Yu frowned as he felt the same dark energy as from Fan Castle. 'Lord Zhuge Liang is in trouble. Should I move to aid or stay and defend the city,' the god of war thought to himself as he slashed a sound ninja. 'Sound forces have already broken down three of the four gates. I have no idea how Zhao Yun is holding up. If I go to aid Zhuge Liang, the city could fall. Then again, if I don't aid him, he could attack allied forces like at Fan Castle.' Guan Yu felt a hint of fear when the dark energy increased. 'I could route the enemy forces at my gate and then move to aid Zhuge Liang.' Guan Yu killed another sound ninja, and whistled. Red Hare came walking up next to him. Guan Yu mounted the horse and rode towards the gate. "Charge, Red Hare! Trample anyone in our way," Guan Yu yelled. Many of the sound ninja were crushed by the horse. "Charge the enemy! Follow me as I cut a path through the enemy ranks!" Many of the leaf ninja smiled and followed Guan Yu.

/ / / / / / / / / With Jiraiya and Team 8 and 10.

Jiraiya frowned as he watched the medic try to heal Yue Ying. Her skin was a sickly pale and she was in a coma. The leaf ninja were fearful, because the older generation felt the kyuubi's charka. "How is she," the toad sage asked.

"Not good, sir. We don't know the snake that bit her," the head medic said sadly.

"If we can find Anko, she would be able to help," Kurenai said. Jiraiya nodded.

"Team 8 and 10! Find and bring Anko back here as soon as possible! We don't have much time."

/ / / / / / / / / Back to Naruto and Orochimaru

Orochimaru began to pant as he dodged another claw. He had tried and flee, but Naruto was to fast. Orochimaru knew he only had charka for one or two more Justus at most. He thought hard as he dodged yet another claw. 'This is my last chance,' he thought. He jumped away and went though a quick movement of hand signs. "Earth Style: Great Prison!" As Naruto was about to attack the ground shot up and boxed him in. An eighth tail formed. A body of a fox with no hair took the charka shell.

/ / / / / / / / / Mindscape with Naruto

"Why? How did this happen? I don't know. It hurts! I hate this," Naruto cried in front of the Kyuubi's cage. The fox was just smiling. "Somebody HELP ME!"

"I will save you from the pain. Give your heart to me, and I shall destroy everything that hates you. Come here . . . pull this seal off," the deep voice of the Kyuubi no Yoko said to Naruto. Naruto looked up with dead eyes and began to move towards the seal. As he was about to tear it off, and hand grabbed his hand. Naruto saw a blond man wearing a jonin vest with a white coat over it. The man pushed Naruto back.

"The fourth hokage," Naruto said shocked.

"YOU," the Kyuubi roared.

"The seal is set so that if eight tails are released, I'll appear within your consciousness. I didn't want that to happen. I really didn't want to see you Kyuubi. On the bright, I really looked forward to see how my son has grown, so I guess we're even," the fourth hokage said. "Naruto. . . you sure have grown into a fine young man."

"Naruto. . .? You know my name," Naruto asked with shock.

"Of course! I was the one who gave you the name! You're my son!" Naruto was speechless. He was the son of the fourth hokage. The Kyuubi continued to launch threats at the fourth. "Naruto, let's go some where else. He just does not shut up!" Naruto and the fourth appeared in all white. "I guess from your shock, the third never told you? I can't blame him. I had a lot of enemies that would have loved to kill you."

"I had a lot of villagers who would have loved to kill me, you bastard," Naruto yelled and punched the fourth (now known as Minato). Minato coughed and fell to the ground. "I. . . don't know how to feel. I'm happy and pissed!"

Minato got up, and said, "I am sorry Naruto. I have caused you nothing, but grief. I am so disappointed at Konoha for banishing you. I still have a hard time believing it. Man, I've been a lame father huh?"

"I'm the son of the fourth. I can . . . deal with anything," Naruto said between sobs.

"Naruto, I sealed only have of the Kyuubi's charka in you. I thought at some time, you would need to learn how to use it. I know you could.

Also, the night the Kyuubi attacked, I learned something. The Kyuubi was not in control of itself. A man from a group called Akatsuki was in control of the fox. He used it to get revenge on the Hidden Leaf. This man is Madara Uchiha. It seems that he has found a way to prolong his life. I'm not sure how though."

"Dad, my life is so confusing. I may have to become emperor of China. I have this war to fight. Yue Ying is dead. I don't think I can do it." Naruto felt a hand on his shoulder. Minato was smiling at him.

"I believe in you. I know you will succeed in anything you try. Also, Naruto. Orochimaru summoned a woman right?"

"Yeah. The red head."

"That woman was Kushina Uzumaki. Your mother. I am unsure why he chose her, and I really don't want to know." Minato paused. "Naruto. My time is almost up. I have repaired your seal. This is the only time I can do this, so make sure this does not happen. Remember Naruto, I love you." Minato began to fade.

"Wait! Dad, I love you," Naruto yelled. He felt Minato hug him.

/ / / / / / / / / Outside of Mind

Orochimaru smiled when he could not feel the Kyuubi's charka. 'Kukukuku. I am the greatest ninja alive.' Orochimaru smirked and released the justu. Much to his horror, Naruto stood their in his normal outfit. Naruto looked up at Orochimaru and yawned.

"Overconfidence leads to failure. Orochimaru, I think its time for this fight to end," Naruto said forming a rasengan. With a blink of an eye, Naruto drove the spinning ball into Orochimaru's chest. The snake sanin cried out and fell to the ground life less. Naruto looked around and began to walk back to the site of the first fight. As he walked down into the crater he saw Kushina lying their. She looked up at him.

"Hello mom," Naruto said. Naruto turned his head and saw a spare kunai. "I killed Orochimaru and meet dad."

"Naruto! I can't believe I tried to kill you! I'm a terrible mother," Kushina cried.

"No. It was not your fault. You were under Orochimaru's control. I am going to send you to be with dad. He will tell you about the rest. I love you, mom."

"I understand son. Know that I will always love you," Kushina said. With tears running down his face, Naruto slashed Kushina's face. For the second time, Kushina died with a smile on her face.

/ / / / / / / / / Ame

Four figures watched the rain fall in Ame. The first was a man with orange hair and piercing (Pein). Next was the only woman, who had blue hair done up in a bun (Konan). The next was a man with black hair and an orange mask (Madara/Tobi). The last was a figure in a black cloak with the hood up.

"The war is going as planned," Madara said looking at the rain.

"It is. Very soon it will be time to move," Pein said in a mono-toned voice.

"Any word of the nine-tails," Konan asked. Pein frowned.

"None. I have our spies looking for him, but still no new leads," Pein replied. The hooded figure chuckled.

"Worry not. This is all part of my plan. The nine tails will show itself soon, once all the others have been captured," the hooded figure said.

"I hope your right. I do not accept failure," Madara said looking towards the figure.

"Have no fear, it will go as planned. Well, I have other duties to attend to," the figure said walking away.

"I hope your right. . . Sima Yi." The figure removed its hood to reveal the smiling face of Sima Yi.

Done. Review!
