Chapter 7-Rumble in the Clouds
For three weeks, Naruto awaited Kumo's response to the loss of their three Jounin, who all entered, and two-thirds captured for the attempted kidnapping of Hyuuga Hanabi. He knew Kumo would send a message, as the Raikage couldn't deny it when the proof was laid at the Fire Daimyo's feet, and the Feudal Lord had contacted the Lightning Daimyo to inform him of the situation. Naruto surmised the Raikage was thinking on what to do at this point since not only did he do something that could start a war, the man got caught with his subordinates now in enemy hands, brought before the enemy village's Daimyo to show it was true, and other overwhelming evidence to support the charges against Kumo. The Namikaze knew the Raikage would try to use every available strategy open to him before calling for a meeting to discuss terms of peace and the return of his remaining two subordinates out of the three sent.
And sure enough by the end of the third week, the Raikage had sent a messenger to the Hokage requesting a meeting to discuss the matter, and with the ruler of Kumo doing it in the heart of Konoha itself. Tsunade was hesitant to agree to that since the Raikage could do something irrational and the end result would put a giant hole in the village with its forces severely weakened. However, the Lightning Daimyo had supported it, and sent a message stating the Raikage would not do anything rash out of the fear of Kumo losing all funding from him.
With that stipulation in mind, Tsunade agreed to allow the Raikage enter Konoha's walls, and asked Naruto to be the one to spearhead the negotiations since Kumo's leader would want to meet the one holding his forces hostage. Naruto didn't mind, though the Demon Prince of War was wondering if the Raikage would ask for them back, and how the man would react when hearing the word "no" being used for an answer. Its not that Naruto wouldn't release them, but the fact was Naruto couldn't free them from his custody, as Kyu had decided to have some...fun with the two Kumo kunoichi, and in a span of the week after their capture had made them servants of the Namikaze Clan.
(Flashback-1 Week after the Incident)
Tsunade was at Naruto's home, the Demon Prince of War, and Grandson of Raizen was sitting across from her on a couch while watching the blonde Senju's eyebrow twitching rapidly. Why? Because the vixen next to him was grinning evilly over what she had done without regret regarding the two caught Kumo kunoichi now standing on either side of the couch's arm rests. Both women had been for the lack of a better word...tamed by her hands, as each kunoichi had been stripped of their original clothing, and now wore tiny maid like outfits that would make Jiraiya drool with perverted thoughts running around his head. Each of them with their heads down slightly, their eyes showing that they did not have the strength to fight their new Mistress, and Master of the house with any such attempt resulting in a punishment so severe that it would make them think twice before having another thought like that rise from the deep recesses of their minds.
"I'm pretty sure I didn't approved of this course of action regarding these two," said Tsunade while trying to keep the anger in her voice from becoming completely hostile.
"That was Kyu's fault. Then again, its partially mine since I left them here for her to do what she did, and I was occupied with dealing with retrieving Konohamaru before Asuma did worse damage to him," said Naruto while his words calmed down Tsunade a bit since her sensei's son was not acting in the best interest of his nephew.
When Naruto arrived at the Sarutobi Clan home, Naruto saw Asuma was harshly training the boy, and by harshly training Naruto meant kicking the boy while he was down on the ground a nasty gash just above his right eye. At the same time, Asuma was talking down to Konohamaru, calling him a "demon lover", "traitor to the Sarutobi Clan", and how the Sandaime Hokage was rolling over in his grave over the boy's choice in supporting the Namikaze Clan Head.
You betray your clan, Father, my brother that is your Father, and ME after all the time I'm spending in training you. You are an embarrassment. A failure of our clan. I don't know why my Father didn't just do everyone in Konoha a favor and put you out of our misery!
Boss isn't a monster. You and Grandpa are the monsters. You supported the village in betraying his parents and for something that was never his fault. You are the traitors. Not me.
Asuma had seen red at that point and was about to stomp Konohamaru's head into the ground if not for Naruto spin kicking the Jounin in the skull. After the Namikaze took the boy to the hospital to get checked out by Tsunade, Naruto had gone back to the Sarutobi Clan home, found Asuma heading out to get his nephew back from the Demon Prince of War, and the two got their much desired fight. Of course, Asuma was so angry with the Namikaze, he had forgotten just who he was fighting, and how far outclassed he was by comparison. Some 20 minutes later, Naruto came back to the hospital, dragging the body of a barely alive Sarutobi Asuma into the building, and laid him at feet of the hospital staff for them to handle. After that, the Grandson of Raizen found Konohamaru's room, and inform the boy he would be staying with him at the Namikaze Estates until further notice. The boy was a little upset about it, but he understood after Naruto had explained things to him, and it wasn't like the kid would be alone in the house. Hanabi was there and Naruto was sure the two would hit it off if given a chance to interact with each other.
"Still...did she have to do that to them?" said Tsunade while Kyu just gave her a cheesy foxy grin.
"My bad. I kind of got carried away after one of them told me Kumo was going to find a way to capture Naruto-sama and have all the fertile women in their village giving birth to his children," said Kyu before letting out a sheepish laugh.
"Still, the Raikage will want his two kunoichi back, and to deny him might lead to war regardless of the fact he was wrong to send them," said Tsunade while the two kunoichi from Kumo shifted a little on their feet and whimpered slightly knowing the Raikage was going to punish them for their failure if that ever happened.
"Samui. Karui," said Kyu with both women standing straight and at attention.
"Yes Mistress," said Samui and Karui at the same time while Tsunade's eyebrow twitched rapidly.
"Do you wish to go back to Kumo? Or stay here serving me and Naruto-sama?" said Kyu while looking at one of her clawed hands and inspecting it for any grime that may exist there even though she knew there wasn't.
"We would like to stay here with Mistress and Master," said Samui and Karui at once and at the same time.
"There you have it," said Kyu while Naruto just laughed and scratched her behind one of her fox ears that made the vixen stir with desire later.
"Naruto. Are you even going to try keeping her in line?" said Tsunade while Naruto just had a grin of his own that was even more mischievous then Kyu's!'
"I do keep her in line. Just not with this. I think my horny vixen here is starting to turn me into a pervert," said Naruto with Tsunade looking a bit peeved at hearing this.
While internally, Ero-Tsunade had broken free from her cement encased grave, and was laughing evilly at being free once more while promising vengeance on her prudish self.
"Oh please! I'm not doing all the work. Tsume, Hana, Anko, Shizune, and even Hinata are all acting naughty in bringing out the perverted side of us we all have that wages war with the prude," said Kyu while Tsunade blinked at that and again for hearing Shizune was having a hand in corrupting Naruto into the ways of the pervert.
'She does have a point. Our pervert and prude sides do wage war with each other. Though I know my kunoichi aren't that bad like Kyu claims,' thought Tsunade seeing the wicked gleam in Kyu's eyes.
(Within Anko's Head-At the Moment)
"I am Ero-Anko! I am a pervert! I will one day fuck Naruto-kun! In front of Hana! We will do the nasty! In many different places! Including the Hokage's Office! Whether or not he becomes the next Hokage!" said Ero-Anko while dancing on Prude Anko's grave and was strutting her stuff while listening to music strippers dance to when they perform.
"Anko is everything all right? You have this far away look in your eyes," said Ibiki while seeing Anko was distracted for a moment.
"Yeah! I'm fine. I was just...deep in thought," said Anko while closing her eyes now and humming Ero-Anko's words.
Elsewhere...several kunoichi sneezed for having similar thoughts.
(Back to the Namikaze Estates)
"The Raikage isn't to be taken lightly Naruto. Even if he was in the wrong, the man will try to intimidate us, and will use all the power he possesses to do it," said Tsunade while Naruto's smile left him, a scowl taking its place, and an aura of power surrounded the Namikaze Clan Head that made everyone else in the house shiver.
Though they all shivered for different reasons.
"Let him come. Let him know what he faces before returning to Kumo empty handed and with his tail between his legs. If I deny him what he wants and the man wants to start a war then I say bring it! I have no problem sending him back to Kumo a broken man," said Naruto while feeling his bloodlust flowing within his body.
"Okay that's enough! Get out Hokage-sama!" said Kyu, as she knew how to handle this, and began dragging the woman out.
"Excuse me! What do you think you're doing?" said Tsunade, as she was out the door, and saw Kyu grinning at her.
"Sating his bloodlust the only way I know how. Also, tell Hinata to stay away from the house for the next...6 hours, or else she won't be a virgin after the first minute after being here," said Kyu before shutting the door on a red faced Tsunade.
Turning around, Kyu saw Naruto grinning at her, and the vixen could only grin back with a hungry look of her own. With deadly speed and strength Kyu was upon Naruto, as they kissed, clawed, and bit each others bodies.
"You always know how to bring out the passion in my life," said Naruto while grabbing her ass roughly while she had her legs wrapped around his waist.
"Same to you. Let's take this to your room. Samui! Karui! You're joining us. Master is in need of your...services," said Kyu before letting out yelp at feeling Naruto's hand smack her ass.
"Naughty vixen. Prepare to be sore for the next few days Kyu," said Naruto earning him a squeal of joy before the four of them were up stairs in the Master Bedroom.
(End Flashback)
Now the Raikage would be here in a few days with his own small entourage of ANBU for bodyguards to accompany him to Konoha. The man would talk, act humble, and of course apologize for his actions before asking for his two kunoichi back provided they weren't too badly injured. Personally, Naruto was going to enjoy the look on his face when the Kage demanded why that was not possible, and the action after the reason for it came to light.
As he rose from his bed, Naruto cracked the various parts of his body when stretching, and getting out of bed with the moans of a female being heard. The ruffling of bed sheets continued after Naruto was off the bed revealing the vixen underneath and her hand rising over her eyes to block the sunlight pouring into the room. Naruto merely smirked at the sight of his vixen rising from her nap, the usually long flowing hair was all over the place in disarray, the yawn that told him she was not feeling like a morning person right now, and the fact she was scratching her armpit to get rid of the early morning itch there was almost enough to make Naruto laugh.
"Poor Kyu. Did I tire you out last night?" said Naruto teasingly while the vixen just gave a small glare before stretching her back before loud "crick!" sound was heard.
"I can't wait till you take Hana and Anko in your bed. I barely survived last night," said Kyu though there was a bit of humor in her voice.
"Well I would have had Samui and Karui join us, but I need them fully awake, and ready to handle the day in watching over two important charges we took in," said Naruto, as he saw the vixen in front of him walk over to him, and the Namikaze just loved the sight of her naked body while Kyu's hips swayed.
"Fair enough. I have to get myself looking good. Care to join me and...assist?" said Kyu while pressing herself up against him and purred hungrily.
"I'd be stupid to turn down such a generous offer," said Naruto, as he grabbed Kyu's rear end, and gave it nice squeeze before they entered the bathroom to "freshen up" to tackle the day.
(Elsewhere in the Namikaze Estates)
"Konohamaru-sama. Its time to wake up," said Karui, as she had been put in charge of getting the 8 year old Sarutobi out of bed, and shook him awake by Naruto himself.
"Five more minutes please," said Konohamaru sleepily while hitting the blonde busty woman formerly of Kumo in the head.
Karui also had orders to get him out of bed forcefully if he didn't comply to her polite command.
"NOW!" yelled Karui, as she kicked the boy out of his bed, and into a wall with a loud "BAM!" upon impact.
"OW! THAT HURT!" yelled Konohamaru while pointing a finger at the maid.
"It was necessary. You wouldn't get up when asked and Naruto-sama added in secondary orders to get you up by other means should you fail to comply with the first command. Take it up with him. Now get ready for the day please. I have been assigned to assist in your Shinobi training for the day and was instructed to drill your body into the ground if my student gives me problems," said Karui while seeing the boy look happy at learning, then scared since the woman was by no means going to go easy on him, and ran to the bathroom to get ready.
(Elsewhere in the Namikaze Estates)
"Hanabi-sama. Its time to get up," said Samui, as she shook the girl awake, and unlike the young Sarutobi ward of the Namikaze Clan this girl obeyed the command.
"Thank you Karui-san. Will my sister be around to train with me today?" said Hanabi while keeping the fear of the woman in front of her at bay since she was just getting use to the fact the two kunoichi formerly of Kumo were now servants in this house.
The poor girl screamed in fright the first morning one of them woke her.
"No. Your sister is training with her Jounin sensei today along with Inuzuka Hana, but will be nearby, and Anko is going to meet up with them shortly after that. I will be your instructor today after breakfast," said Samui seeing the girl was a bit surprised by this news.
"But you do not know anything about the Hyuuga Gentle Fist fighting style? What can you teach me?" said Hanabi curiously.
"There are things that make a good Shinobi. Your fighting style with the Byakugan is deadly at close range. However, a Hyuuga cannot fight back against long range attacks for long, and there is also the matter of fighting against a Kenjutsu expert. If you fight someone with a sword, they could cut off your hands, it will leave you open, and then its game over," said Samui with Hanabi looking horrified at the notion.
"I never thought of it like that," said Hanabi, as she knew Gentle Fist was no match for steel from a blade, and this kunoichi was well skilled in the use of it.
"Your Gentle Fist is useless if you don't have hands," said Samui, as she motioned for the girl to freshen up, and prepare for today's training.
(Hokage Tower-Sometime Later)
"Welcome Raikage-sama," said Tsunade, as she saw the Raikage nod, and look at Naruto watching him with his arms crossed.
"Thank you Hokage-sama. And you must be the Namikaze Clan Head I've heard so much about," said the Raikage while measuring the demonic boy and had to admit the kid had a good deal of muscle on his body.
"I am. Word of advice when dealing with people like Danzo and Hiashi in the near future should a thought like this rise up in your head. Don't do it! It will just piss me off," said Naruto with a growl in his throat while the Kumo ANBU behind the Raikage became tense.
"I will keep that in mind Namikaze-sama. Shall we begin negotiations?" said the Raikage while making a hand motion for his bodyguards to stand down.
"Yes. Yes lets begin," said Tsunade, as she sat behind her desk, Naruto was sitting right beside her, and the Raikage sitting across from them while the man's bodyguards just stood.
"First, I want to apologize for my Shinobi, and them trying to kidnap the young Hyuuga from your village," said the Raikage while Naruto and Tsunade narrowed their eyes at him.
"Are you denying your involvement in their actions because I find it hard to believe they would go against your wishes. From what I understand, these three Shinobi sent to kidnap the Hyuuga child were among your most loyal subordinates, and would only do this on your orders," said Tsunade while the Raikage nodded his head.
"That is true under normal circumstances. However, the growing obsession Kumo has had with the Byakugan has led my Shinobi to do everything in their power to get it, and they believe the order is still on going," said the Raikage while Naruto growled at the blatant lie.
"Despite the evidence that disproves such things?" said Naruto while the Raikage gave him a sharp "watch it brat!" look.
"Evidence that could have been fabricated by Konoha and forced my kunoichi to say after they were caught to shame Kumo further," said the Raikage while Naruto's growl grew even further.
"Unlikely teme. The only thing being fabricated here is this bullshit lie you are spewing from your mouth!" said Naruto while the Raikage looked angry for a second before he tried to bring his temper under control.
"Hokage-sama, please inform your demon pet that insulting a Kage like he just did is grounds for war, and I won't stand for it," said the Raikage while Tsunade just smirked at him.
"My 'demon pet', as you call him just so happens to be my Godson. He also caught your kunoichi while they fled with their prize and they are now his personal servants," said Tsunade seeing the Raikage glaring hatefully at her and then at Naruto.
"Release them from your control and return them to me at once!" said the Raikage while seeing Naruto just smirk at him.
"Well when you put it like that Raikage-sama my answer is...NO!" said Naruto seeing the Raikage become absolutely livid at being denied his two Kumo Shinobi.
"You have no right to deny me my Shinobi!" said the Raikage rising up and glaring at the demonic form that was Naruto.
"I have every right to deny you considering how your Shinobi were on my property and attacked my home! Still, if you really are interested in getting those two kunoichi back as you claim then...there might be a way we can solve this, and in a way everyone can agree the terms are fair," said Naruto with a grin on his face that Tsunade knew Shizune had seen on her face when thinking about gambling big.
"In what way?" said the Raikage curiously while Tsunade was interested too.
"A fight. You and me. One on one in Konoha's stadium in three days so anyone from outside Konoha can come to watch. If you win...then the two kunoichi are yours," said Naruto seeing the Raikage rub his chin in thought.
"And if you win?" said the Raikage seeing the grin on his face grow.
"I keep both them and since it is your fault to begin with in sending them here for such a mission...you give us the Nibi Jinchuriki too. The one there behind you with Kumo Mask in the shape of a Neko," said Naruto seeing the one female ANBU from Kumo stiffen.
'How does he know that?' thought the Raikage and Nibi Jinchuriki.
"That's unfair! Why must I risk more then you?" said the Raikage while Naruto's eyes just narrowed at him.
"Because you started this incident, you sent those Kumo Shinobi here to take what doesn't belong to you, and in itself is more then enough to make sure you understand the price of losing when getting caught with your hand in the cookie jar," said Naruto with the man in front of him seething with rage.
"And if I refuse this offer?" said the Raikage seeing the demonic entity before him just grin.
"Then go back to Kumo with your tail between your leg. Tell the people of your village they will soon meet their end and by my hands," said Naruto with his voice becoming deadly and growled heavily at the ruler of Kumo.
"You dare threaten me with war!" said the Raikage while his voice echoed through the room.
"No. Threatening you with war is for amateurs and anyone can do it. I'm threatening you with annihilation! Big difference," said Naruto while the Raikage looked ready to blow his top.
"And just who the Hell are you to make such demands of me? The Raikage of Kumo!" said the Raikage while letting his chakra out and intimidate the Namikaze.
Only for it to be dwarfed by Naruto, as the Demon Prince of War let out his power, and let the Raikage know exactly who he was trying to intimidate. The room shook violently under Naruto's power, the walls cracked, the glass on the windows broke, and the Kumo ANBU were blown back.
"I DO! I AM THE DESCENDANT OF THE STRONGEST DEMON KING IN ALL OF MAKI! I HAVE THE POWER TO CRUSH YOUR VILLAGE WITH A SINGLE SHOT! I AM THE DESCENDANT OF RAIZEN AND THE DEMON PRINCE OF WAR!" yelled Naruto with the power of his voice sending the Raikage flying back and forcing the man to do a flip in order to regain his balance just enough to land on his feet.
'What power! If the rumors are true, then this power is all his, and the Kyuubi while free is still under his command,' thought the Raikage while staring at the Namikaze with his power being something beyond anything he had ever felt before in his life.
"What say you Raikage of Kumo? Care to put your money your mouth is and accept my terms? Or are you just a whiny little BITCH!" said Naruto seeing the Raikage glare despite being pushed back and the Namikaze knew the man's pride would never let someone like this one to simply kneel.
The Raikage was a fighter. Always had been and always will be. It was something Naruto was counting on and wanted to happen.
"I accept your terms! In three days, we'll fight in your stadium, and the winner gets all that we agreed upon," said the Raikage while the deep part of his mind told him not to do this, but his pride was screaming the opposite, and telling the man to kick this punk kid's ass.
"One more thing should you lose," said Naruto with an afterthought tone in his voice.
"What?" said the Raikage impatiently.
"You return the body of Hyuuga Hizashi here to Konoha," said Naruto seeing the Kage in front of him narrow his eyes.
"Deal! In return, should I win...you come back to Kumo, and be used as a stud to produce more of your bloodline in our village," said the Raikage seeing Tsunade's eyes widen in horror.
"Deal!" said Naruto without flinching and fear at the possibility of losing.
"What? Naruto!" said Tsunade, but the glare he sent her told the woman to be quiet, and to just let them handle this.
"See you in three days," said the Raikage before leaving the room with his ANBU.
"How can you even consider such a wager?" said Tsunade, as she was nearly in his face, and a look of fury filled it.
"How can I not? Besides...I've fought stronger foes," said Naruto before leaving the room while the Hokage just had a gapping fish look on her face.
(Elsewhere)
"Its not fair! You get to be in that house with Naruto-kun and have a chance of getting laid while I'm stuck in the cold. If you'll pardon the pun Hana-chan...throw a girl a bone!" said Anko, as she was whining like a little girl over the issue of Hana staying in Naruto's home with Naruto while Anko herself was feeling...well left out!
"Its not like I'm hogging him all for myself Anko. Besides, we haven't even...," said Hana with a blush on her face with Hinata doing the same.
"Are you serious? You two haven't been rutting it like animals? What are you waiting for? If it were me...well...," said Anko with glazed eyes and blush on her face.
"We know what you would do Anko," said Hana while blushing herself since she was afraid to even approach the Demon Prince of War on the subject of possibly...mating.
Poor Hinata was a second away from passing out with a full face blush.
"Damn straight!" said Anko proudly while Hana growled at her and Hinata did faint this time.
"You're not helping Hinata with your antics Anko. She really wants to get stronger for Naruto and your crude innuendo's are making it difficult for her to focus," said Hana while she wanted to help the girl get over her shyness when it came to such talk and the idea of Naruto being involved in such...activities.
"Then I'll help her," said Anko with a grin on her face that Hana knew was not good for Hinata.
"We are going to help her," said Hana while Kurenai had been watching them too and had kept quiet up until now.
"Don't you think its wrong?" said Kurenai while both kunoichi looked at her with raised eyebrows.
"What?" said Hana and Anko at the same time.
"Talking about Naruto that way. Like he could be your boyfriend, future husband, and the Father of your children? I mean he's almost younger then all of us here with the exception of Hinata, and then there is your own Mother having feelings for him Hana. Doesn't that bother you?" said Kurenai while Hana and Anko shrugged at her question.
"We just can and do Kurenai. Its hard to explain. With Naruto, he's...well different, but in a good way, and you just have to be around him to see it," said Hana, as she heard from her Mother how Kiba was whining, and bitching about Naruto taking Hinata away from him.
They really needed to do something about him.
"Besides, he's not a jerk like Asuma, and thinking a woman is only good for three basic things of a traditional housewife. Naruto likes strong women and we're the strongest around or soon will be once we get Hinata-chan here out of her shell and ready to give Naruto-kun the ride of his life once she's older," said Anko while Hinata, who had just awakened moments ago, let out an "eep!", and fainted again with blood coming out of her nose.
"Damn it Anko!" said Kurenai knowing the woman's actions were going to make Hinata into a pervert.
"What? She needs this. Stop smothering her so much," said Anko while seeing Kurenai trying "repair" the so called "damage" done to the Hyuuga's "innocent" mind.
Not far, hidden the trees near their position, a single female was watching them, hearing in on their conversation with interest, and soon fled to report to her superior. The woman was a kunoichi of Kumo, loyal to the Raikage, and his weapon should he call upon her to be one. She was Nii Yugito, the Nibi Jinchuriki, and ordered by the Raikage to spy near the Namikaze Estates to learn what she could to possibly use against Naruto when they fought a few days from now. Strengths, weaknesses, abilities, anything the Raikage could use remotely against the Demon Prince of War. Nibi had been against this of course, even going so far as to threaten Yugito with denying the woman its chakra in any future battle, and that to oppose the descendant of Raizen himself was unwise.
"You are playing a dangerous game kitten. What you overheard has no value on the Raikage's match with the Namikaze. If Raizen's descendant learns of your spying and wins against the Raikage...his wrath will know no bounds. I will not and cannot help you," said Nibi with Yugito stiffening at the thought of being unable to draw on Nibi's power in a fight.
'What? Why? Surely someone like this gaki doesn't frighten you?' thought Yugito while the Nibi hissed at her and felt twinge of pain in the back of her head when the demon cat smashed at the bars of the cage it was in.
"Of course he frightens me! Kyuubi herself was once sealed inside of him. Remember? Now she is servant and if rumors are indeed true...his lover! Kyuubi is the strongest of the nine Biju and she serves HIM! Raizen was the ruler of Makai and called a Master of War for a reason! Now his Grandson is here and while not that as strong as Raizen himself...we are weak by comparison to him," said Nibi seeing Yugito go pale and begin to understand the severity of this.
'So what should I do? I have to tell Raikage-sama what I've heard because if I don't, then my mission will be a failure, and he doesn't like failures,' thought Yugito with Nibi not knowing how to answer that question at first.
"Then you will have to fail this one time kitten. Nobody is perfect. Besides, we both know you learned absolutely nothing from their conversation anyway, and its best not to provoke what shouldn't be provoked in the first place," said Nibi with Yugito only giving a mental nod in agreeing with her.
(Konoha Hospital)
"Is she stable?" said Tsunade while the doctors around her had been checking the patient over under her watchful eyes.
"Yes Hokage-sama. It appears she's alive and adapting to her situation from the position she was in when brought here," said one doctor.
"Good. Leave us. I need to talk to her alone," said Tsunade with the doctors nodding and leaving moments later.
"What do you want to talk to me about Hokage-sama?" said the girl lying on the bed.
"Your time in Danzo's lab. What did he do to you? What happened before then? Just about everything you can tell me since your defeat at the Chuunin Exam Preliminaries Tsuchi Kin," said Tsunade seeing the girl now identified as Tsuchi Kin shrug though it took effort on her part to do just that.
"Some ANBU came to visit me in the middle of the night. I thought they were the new guard detail, but then I realized there were too many of them to be just that, and before I knew it...they had taken me out. Then I remember Orochimaru talking to a guy with a cane and bandaged face before they shoved me into a coffin. I was still too sedated to fight back and fell asleep because I was still too tired to stay awake. Then, I find myself pulled out of the coffin after who knows how long, and then put in a tank filled up with liquid, the same old guy with the cane looking at me, and talking to someone about how I was going to be his secret weapon. That if he couldn't have Kyuubi or her former vessel under his command then he would make a demon that could be used in his favor. I saw a canister being hooked up next to my tank and it was glowing crimson with chakra I've never felt before in my life. That's all I remember until recently," said Kin while seeing the woman nod in understanding and clearly knew what that crimson colored chakra was that they somehow were able to make her body absorb it.
"Yes. The man you are referring to is Shimura Danzo and he was responsible for helping Orochimaru in his plans. After his recent demise, I had my ANBU look into everything he did, and found out quite a bit aside from yourself. I have to say, the changes made to your body are unexpected, and I need to call in someone who could identify exactly what you've become," said Tsunade seeing the girl nod and her ear twitched slightly before looking past the Hokage to see the door open.
And reveal Kyu looking at the girl with questioning eyes.
"So this is the one Danzo tried to turn into a bastardized version of myself huh?" said Kyu, as she walked towards Kin, and giving the girl a once over.
"She's been given a heavy amount of your chakra from when you attacked Konoha and has absorbed all of it before taken out of the tank," said Tsunade while Kyu gave the girl a sniff looking the slightly nervous girl in the eyes.
"I figured as much. The seals they put on her for absorbing my chakra must have burned off the moment it was over," said Kyu, as she moved back, and saw the appearance of the girl was indeed something unique.
"Is she what I suspect?" said Tsunade seeing Kin becoming nervous.
"A full fox demon like myself? No. A half-demon to be more exact given Kin's scent, but that could change since she is still young, and the fact her body is trying to adjust to the changes. She's actually lucky to be alive," said Kyu while Kin and Tsunade looked at her with surprise.
"In what way?" said Tsunade curiously.
"In everyway. The seals used to absorbed my chakra would have to be complex, but they were no doubt crude since Seal Masters are in fact rare in Konoha, and now there is only one left in the village. Whoever did the seals was good, but not at a level of an Uzumaki, and the girl herself shouldn't have had the necessary strength to take it. Unless...," said Kyu in thought while Tsunade narrowed her eyes in thought.
"Unless what?" said Tsunade not liking the vixen's mind treading.
"The seals on her body would have to cover all main points of the human body to even have a remote chance at best of such a feet being a success. We're talking about arms, legs, head, and the back with each one connecting to another. The chakra absorbed into them spreads out through the rest of the body, through the chakra network, and causes changes accordingly. However, only a high level Seal Master would know this, and we know there is only one high level Seal Master in Konoha," said Kyu, which earned her a fist the face, and sent the vixen flying into the wall.
"Jiraiya is many things Kyu. He maybe a pervert, a writer of perverted books, a Spy, and Seal Master. But there is one thing Jiraiya is not and that is a subordinate of Danzo!" said Tsunade while Kyu got off the ground easily like the punch was nothing.
"I never said he was a subordinate of Danzo. But we both know the man's loyalty has to be put into question Tsunade. He did support the Sandaime's actions regarding Naruto after all," said Kyu while brushing the invisible dust that was on her clothing.
"Not even Jiraiya would stoop so low. He...he couldn't!" said Tsunade, but then she was able to recall the memory of when the meeting was going to happen regarding Danzo, and Hiashi selling out their children to Kumo.
Jiraiya had been against it from the start. Saying it would cause more harm then good in outing those two idiots like he knew that doing so would implicate so many more. It was obvious, but only now did Tsunade realize there was a hint of worry not for Konoha itself in having someone's dirty laundry being revealed, but rather reveal his dirty laundry that he had bundled in with the others, and knew how deep the ramifications in that happening if she had discovered the Sannin's involvement.
"He would if the man thought it would benefit Konoha in the long run. Jiraiya knew that with the change's to Naruto's perceptions of Konoha with his awakening, the Leaf was at risk of facing two high level demons with no way to seal us up, and at the very least we would leave Konoha to let it face off against the other villages with their Jinchuriki. The powers that be in the village wanted a Jinchuriki for a weapon, but the plan was ruined, and they needed a powerful substitute with Kin here being their new weapon," said Kyu while Kin seemed depressed by this and her fox ears fell to the front of her head to show it.
"Damn it!" said Tsunade, as she had to hold back punching someone, or something near her.
"We'll deal with the man later. Right now we need to figure out what to do with her," said Kyu seeing the girl whimper in fear knowing her life was in their hands.
"She can't stay here. Once word gets out about Kin and her power, the Councils will be all over the issue, and...," said Tsunade while Kyu nodded in agreement.
"And it will be unpleasant if they have their way," said Kyu knowing that while Danzo and Hiashi were out of the way there were still some thorns in the sides of the Hokage that could not be ignored.
"What do you want me to do Kyu? I don't know how to handle something like this," said Tsunade while Kyu looked at the girl one more time.
"Place her under my charge Tsunade," said Kyu while Kin had a measure of hope in her eyes.
"Are you sure?" said Tsunade seeing the vixen nod.
"Someone has to help her. We both know our young vixen will need someone to train her in the new abilities she's going to show. Besides...maybe Naruto-sama will take a liking to her," said Kyu with a grin at the end.
"I'm getting to old for this shit. Fine! I'll make it happen. Run it by Naruto so he knows to have another room for another guest. Speaking of guests, how is everything at the house, and please tell me he didn't get Hana pregnant?" said Tsunade with Kyuubi laughing at the question.
"No. Nothing like that. Though she does want him. Then of course there is Anko-chan, Hinata-chan, Tsume-chan, Shizune-chan, and you...," said Kyu before dodging a fist from Tsunade.
"Take that back Kyu!" said Tsunade with a red face though whether it was from being in a full blow embarrassed or angry state was unknown.
"You say no Tsunade-chan, but I've seen that look of want, and desire the other have on their faces when looking at him. You want to hold him. You want to touch him. You want fuuuuck him!" said Kyu while laughing dodging the woman's attacks in the hospital room before leaping out the window.
"Come back here and take your lumps!" said Tsunade while Kyu stood standing on the wall of the hospital.
"No. I think I'll play it smart and taunt you from a distance. I'll tell Naruto-sama you send your lust and love!" said Kyu before leaping into the village and laughing at the Hokage's expense.
'Damn vixen. If I were 30 years younger with what I know now, I would make her regret taunting me, and have Naruto all to my-no! NO! Bad Tsunade. Banish such things from your mind,' thought Tsunade while trying to keep her emotions in check.
"You could always ask Kyu if there is a way to become younger. I'm sure she knows. You just have to swallow your pride and prudish ways. Then you can swallow something else when we're with Naruto-kun!" said Ero-Tsunade, who giggled perversely inside her head, and dodged the mental shovel aimed at hitting her.
'Shut up! I am not going to venture down that road,' thought Tsunade while trying to keep her morals intact and found herself being taunted by Ero-Tsunade.
"Why not? You deserve to have some fun and happiness in your life. That stud can give plenty of it and it would be a real shame if you didn't pounce on the opportunity," said Ero-Tsunade before dodging another couple of strikes and then caught the shovel aimed at her head.
'Its still wrong. Even if my age could be reversed,' thought Tsunade while trying to fight the idea of doing what her perverted side suggested and just find a way to be with Naruto on that particular level.
"That's your prudish ways talking. Time to fix that!" said Ero-Tsunade before taking the shovel out of the other's hands and smacked Prude Tsunade out of her position.
"Are you insane! Its morally wrong to do what you are suggesting. I won't let you take control!" said Prude Tsunade, but it was too late, and Ero-Tsunade was in control with an evil grin on her face.
"Too late you stuck up bitch. This woman needs to live a little and get laid big time. She can't do that if you're in charge," said Ero-Tsunade seeing the more well dressed version of herself just glare.
"Over my dead body!" said Prude Tsunade with Ero-Tsunade just grinning even more.
"My thoughts exactly!" said Ero-Tsunade before she smacked her prudish down and into a grave that manifested from behind.
"No! NO! STOP! LET ME OUT!" yelled Prude Tsunade, but her struggles were pointless due to the chains that held her down, and the dirt being piled on top of her grave before Ero-Tsunade put a grave stone on it.
Here lies Prude Tsunade.
May she finally get laid in the afterlife.
"Now its time to scheme and find a way to finally getting laid!" said Ero-Tsunade before letting out an evil cackle inside the mind of Tsunade and the actual woman herself was shaking somewhat from the mental change.
"Hokage-sama, are you all right?" said Kin having sensed a sudden change in the woman.
"Huh? Oh yes. I'm fine. Just thinking about...things! Yes certain things I need to do," said Tsunade before heading out the door and ignoring the girl currently sporting a sweat drop on the back of her head.
(Konoha Stadium-Two Days Later)
"Are you two all set?" said Genma while seeing Naruto looking more then ready.
"Hell yeah!" said Naruto feeling his bloodlust rising inside of him while the Raikage was showing he was ready for a fight too.
In the stands, the people watched with anticipation, and wanting to see these two duke it out. The Fire and Lightning Daimyo were watching from their seats upon arriving to see this match up. Both had agreed to the terms and conditions made by both fighters since they were reasonable with the victor getting the spoils. Beside the Lightning Daimyo was Nii Yugito, who was told to stay by his side until the end of the match, and ensure there was no backing out of the agreement.
"Prepare to lose brat!" said the Raikage with a heavy scowl on his face.
"Ready? FIGHT!" said Genma before leaping away from them.
The Raikage moved first. The man was as fast as lightning like all rumors said he was when it came to fighting his enemies. The man's massive right hand was charged with lightning along with the rest of his body and it was clear the Raikage wanted to finish off Naruto immediately to show this was no contest. Surprisingly however, Naruto caught the massive fist, and ignored the lightning that was coming off the man into his body. In fact, Naruto just grinned at the Raikage, and casually threw the Lightning Shadow over his shoulder. The Raikage landed on his feet, surprised that Naruto could take the abuse his Lightning Armor could dish out upon contact, and saw the burns that covered the Namikaze's skin slowly heal.
Naruto himself charged forward this time, only much faster then the Raikage, and hit the man right in the gut. The Raikage groaned in pain, but endure it all to punch back, and hit the Namikaze right in the face to cause the boy to skid back. Naruto laughed and rubbed the side of his face the man struck him with for a second. The Demon Prince of War just grinned further before charging forward and the Raikage doing the same with their fist clashing against each other. The ground shook around them, but neither gave ground, and soon the two were moving at blazing speed in an all out Taijutsu match. The people that were watching had become speechless, as the two were fighting at a speed few could see, and even then it was mostly a blur for those with the keen eyesight to see their anything.
Among those watching the two fighters were Uchiha Sasuke and Hatake Kakashi with both Shinobi having their Sharingan Eyes exposed to see how the two fought. Each wanting to gain some measure of power from seeing this and were trying to copy what they saw with their Sharingan Eyes. However, the two warriors in the arena below were moving too fast for their Sharingan Eyes to see, and making any chance of copying their fighting styles. Not that it mattered if they did, as neither Shinobi remotely had the level of stamina, or even the physical strength needed to move at such speed these two warriors were moving.
Another colliding fist from each fighter sent them flying back, both looking like they had just gone through Hell, yet showed they were loving every second of it, and wanting to keep going. Both had bruises or burns marking their bodies, blood coming down the side of their mouths, and each fighter looking to continue while finding a sense of joy in this.
"Not bad. I can see why you're the Raikage of Kumo. You've got some moves for a pain in ass teme," said Naruto with a grin on his face and letting out a chuckle.
"Same to you. Its clear your stronger then me, but don't let that go to your head, and get some crazy idea I will let you win," said the Raikage while spitting out some blood and wiping his face.
"As if I'd be so arrogant in believing that," said Naruto cracking his neck and motioning the Raikage to come at him again.
The two charged forward and clashed once more with the desire to defeat the other in all out combat. The two traded blows back and forth with neither one backing down. A fist to the face by the Raikage, countered with a knee to the stomach by Naruto, followed by a kick to a shoulder, which the Namikaze blocked with his arm, and finally a head butt by the two Shinobi brought the battle to an end. The two staggered back, the Raikage fell to one knee, his vision now making him see several Narutos in front of him, and each one was shaking their head to get the cobwebs out. What made it worse for the Lightning Shadow was he realized that his strength was waning and saw Naruto could still keep going despite his injuries.
"Wait! Stop!" said Raikage while hearing the hungry growl of his opponent and the Namikaze ready to continue.
"Why?" said Naruto seeing the Raikage had reached his limit.
"I cannot continue fighting. I yield to you Namikaze Naruto," said the Raikage seeing his opponent look briefly at the proctor to make it official.
"The Raikage yields. The winner is Namikaze Naruto!" said Genma to the crowd above cheering, but many were only cheering in victory for the Leaf rather then Naruto being the victor, and defeating the Raikage in battle.
"Damn that was a good fight. We'll have to do this again another time," said Naruto, as he began walking away, and couldn't seem to remove the grin that was on his face.
"Raikage-sama! Are you all right?" said a Kumo ANBU with the others that had been with him soon by the Raikage's side.
"Yes. I'm fine. Nothing a few days rest won't cure," said the Raikage while the Medic Nin of the group began working on healing him.
"He really did a number on you Raikage-sama. Not even your brother hurt you this much when sparring," said the Kumo ANBU Medic Nin while seeing how bad the Raikage was injured.
"Yeah. I know," said the Raikage while walking away with the help of his ANBU.
"Still, you did make him earn his victory," said another Kumo ANBU.
"No. No I didn't," said the Raikage with his bodyguards looking at him in shock.
"What? But Raikage-sama, he was going toe to toe with you, and you clearly injured him," said the Kumo ANBU Medic Nin.
"I injured him, but nothing he couldn't handle, and deep down...I was actually frightened by what I saw during our fight," said the Raikage with each of his ANBU looking at him with shock and confusion hidden behind their masked faces.
"Frightened?" said the ANBU Captain while wondering what could make the Raikage feel such a way in a fight.
"I hit that boy like no one hit before today. I used all the strength my body had to leave bruises, break his bones, and force his body into submission. I beat him like nobody I have ever beaten up before and the brat still kept coming after me and continue fighting until one of us couldn't fight anymore," said the Raikage while sensing his ANBU were now fearful like he was when it came to the Namikaze.
"He's just like his Father," said the Kumo ANBU Captain.
"No. That brat is something far more powerful then his Father ever was and what's even worse...the kid is still young. When Namikaze Naruto becomes a full grown adult...there is no power in this world that can stop him," said the Raikage knowing that boy could take on both himself and Killer Bee in a fight.
"What about the wager Raikage-sama?" said the Kumo ANBU Captain curiously.
"I lost fairly. I will honor the agreement," said the Raikage while not liking the fact he lost, but deep down it was the only way, and had to accept the terms laid down.
"Yugito won't like this," said the Kumo ANBU Captain.
"I know. However, if there is one thing the Namikaze were known for, it was that they are honorable, and I trust that this one is the same way," said the Raikage, as he made his way to the Lightning Daimyo, and saw Nii Yugito looking slightly upset.
"I don't like this Raikage-sama," said Yugito at last.
"Nor do I Yugito. However, it is a price we must pay, and to say no would only make Kumo look bad," said the Raikage sadly before Naruto and Kyu appeared behind him.
"Don't worry Raikage-sama. Yugito will be more of a guest in my home then anything," said Naruto while seeing the Nibi Jinchuriki glaring at him.
"Oh joy is me," said Yugito while hearing Nibi hissing at her for being disrespectful.
"Have you lost your mind? Do you know who you are addressing? Need I remind you a second time? Not to mention just WHO is with him? Kyuubi is right next to him!" said Nibi while Yugito realized two high level demons had the right to rip her apart for being sarcastic.
"I take it Nibi just told you who I am huh?" said Kyu with an evil grin on her face and it was making Yugito nervous.
"Y-Yeah. Though her timing sucked," said Yugito while the vixen walking towards her and the Nibi Jinchuriki felt a shiver run up her spine.
"Indeed. You and I are going to have so much...fun together," said Kyu while letting out a giggle that made Yugito and Nibi shiver in fear.
'Nibi...help!' thought Yugito while the demon cat went deeper into her cell.
"Sorry kitten, but you asked for this, and as such...you're on your own," said Nibi, as she wanted no part of this, and felt Yugito's fear spike.
'Nibi! NIBI! NIIIIBIIIII!' thought Yugito while Kyu began to drag her to the Namikaze Estates.
"Aren't you going to stop her?" said the Raikage to Naruto, who just shrugged, and just watched the terrified kunoichi being dragged to his home, and grinned at his vixen doing this.
"Now where would the fun be in that?" said Naruto before heading off to his home to ensure Kyu didn't do anything...well anything crazy!
And by crazy he meant perverted.
