Reviews
Jarick: Thanks and I'm on the Begeren colony server
246vili: the clone wars wont be happening for a few chapters; the current year is 32 bby so the events of the phantom menace won't happen for another two years. Plus, Nekesti won't be interfering with anything that happened in the phantom menace. I might hint that he knows what's going on but he'll be preoccupied with his home planet and manipulating the galactic senate and thanks.
Karlos1234ify: That's what this chapter is mostly about.
The Sith'ari: it could happen
BartWLewis: Your wait is over then
TheOnlyKing: thanks

Star Wars the Old Republic
If any of you play Star Wars the Old Republic my name is KyuubiNoGoku, kyuubinoonishi, bladenekesti, and kingnekesti. I'm a level 65 sith juggernaut (sith warrior) and I've started my own guild The Reborn Sith Empire on the Begeren colony server.
Disclaimer:
I don't own Naruto or Star Wars trust me if I did Naruto would have killed Sas-gay at the valley of the end and the empire would have won the galactic civil war.
Last chapter
"The republic fleet is about to drop out of hyperspace in a few minutes. Tell the rest of the fleet to jump to hyperspace" Nekesti said through clenched teeth.
"Yes my lord" Skylrei said before saluting and leaving to carry out her orders.
'The Republic won't fuck this up for me' Nekesti thought as his fleet entered hyperspace and not a second to soon since the republic fleet dropped out of hyperspace.
1 year and 6 months later, Star Forge, Nekesti's throne room
Nekesti had the observation deck turned into a throne room. His throne had two smaller thrones on its sides for Tayuya and Karin since they were his second and third in command. The thrones were facing away from the large window with a set of stairs leading up to them. Above the entrance were two banners that had the Reborn Sith and the Neo Crusaders insignia printed on them. Both HK-51 and HK-47 stood on both sides of the door standing guard even though the three Sith lords didn't need guards.
During the 1 year and 6 month timeskip
During the 1 year and 6 months Nekesti didn't sit idle, after Nekesti was sure that the republic forces were out of the former seat of the empire he departed from the Star Forge and once he arrived at Dromund Kaas he played on the people's gratitude. After that he declared himself the emperor he rebuilt the Imperial Citadel and remodeled the throne room to be identical to the one on the Star Forge. Nekesti would then go to every planet that was now under his control and repeated what he did with Dromund Kaas minus building a Citadel but he did build or rebuild Sith Academies and any other important building that was destroyed on every planet. Once he was done with rebuilding he then went to the various locations that the cryo frozen armies were and freed them. He did have to kill a few sith and most of the dark council only leaving Darth Marr, Darth Nox, and Lana Beniko alive.
With all of the armies out of cryo Nekesti gave Tayuya the ranks of Emperors Wraith and Supreme Commander of the Imperial Forces. Her rank of Supreme Commander of the Imperial Forces gave her complete control of the Military and Navy. Karin was given the rank of Supreme Commander of Torture and Interrogation. Both of the red heads were given a seat on the Dark Council (karin was given the Sphere of Imperial Intelligence and Tayuya was given Sphere of Military Offense) and a star dreadnought similar to Nekesti's but specified to the liking, for example Karin's star dreadnought was meant to be the mobile HQ of Imperial Intelligence, while Tayuya's was equal to Nekesti's in terms of fire power but it lacked slightly in terms of shielding.
Once all of that was out of the way Nekesti departed from Reborn Sith space for Duxn with Javin and the Mandalorian fleet. When Nekesti arrived at Duxn he was meet with slight resistance when he declared himself Mand'alor, nothing a few 100 battles to the death unarmed couldn't fix. Once he proved to the Mandalorian's that he was leaps and bounds above them they had no choice but to accept that he was their new Mand'alor. His first decree as Mand'alor was to have a thorn room an imperial citadel, and a Sith Academy built. Then he organized the Mandalorian armies and fleets, upgraded their weapons, ships, medical technology and planetary defenses. Nekesti had the Mandalorians that he speared trained by HK-51 and HK-47 in the various forms of combat the droids picked up over the millennia.
With the droids training Nekesti's royal guards Nekesti, Tayuya, and Karin chose their legions of Mandalorian. Nekesti chose the 20th assault legion or death legion since they were the best of the best. The death legions armor was pitch black and crimson red with a black jetpack and red flamethrowers. The Rally Masters of death legion had pitch black armor with The Reborn Sith insignia on their backs and lacked a jetpack. The Field Marshals armor was crimson red with a black cape baring the insignia of The Reborn Sith.
Tayuya also chose an assault legion the 456th assault legion or flame legion to be exact. The legion got its name from their uncanny ability to leave any and I mean any battlefield in flames. The legions armor was unique, the entirety of their armor no matter what rank was covered in red flames. The only way to differentiate the foot soldiers from the Field Marshals and Rally Masters was the cape they donned and the placement of The Reborn Sith insignia on their armor.
Karin unlike the other sith lords she chose the 15th espionage legion or stealth legion as many had taken to calling them due to them never be discovered when they infiltrated the enemy's ranks. This legions armor was pitch black no matter the rank, with The Reborn Sith insignia on either the left or right side of the chest depending on what rank the Mandalorian held.
Each of the sith lord after choosing their legions immediately toke to implementing the Mandalorians into the Revanite and HK armies. Once the Mandalorians were properly implemented into the armies 2 months had already passed meaning that Tayuya and Karin's star dreadnoughts were fully operational.
Before Nekesti left he ordered Javin to contact the other Mandalorian clans and tell them that a new has risen to power and if they had a problem with it declare war upon them.
With that done Nekesti departed back to the Star Forge to allow the two red heads to get their flagships. Once they arrived at the Star Forge they were greeted by the hundreds of thousands of starships that make up the Imperial and Revanite fleets.
Tayuya's flagship the 'Emperors Blade' was almost like Nekesti's except hers was slightly lacking in the shielding department, but it more than made up for it with the firepower it was packing. The starship was armed with 19000 Heavy turbolaser cannons fire-linked in groups of 5, 5600 Assault concussion missile tubes with 30 missiles each, 2,055 Heavy ion cannons, 7560 Anti-Starfighter cannons, 57 Phylon Transport Q7 tractor beam projectors, 7800 Point-defense laser cannons, 10 Null Cannons, a detachable bridge that would act as a mobile command center, and extra armoring and shielding on the front of the 'Emperors Blade' allowing the dreadnought to ram ships without suffering much damage.
Karin's flagship 'Cipher 1' was the complete opposite of Nekesti's and Tayuya's. 'Cipher 1' was specifically designed to be the mobile HQ of Imperial Intelligence. It lacked in firepower having only 10000 Heavy turbolaser cannons fire-linked in groups of 5, 1500 Assault concussion missile tubes with 30 missiles each, 1,000 Heavy ion cannons, 900 Anti-Starfighter cannons, 90 Phylon Transport Q7 tractor beam projectors, 1050 Point-defense laser cannons, 2 Gravity well projectors, over 500 Stygium crystal cloaking devices combined into one clocking device, and thousands of hyperspace mines. Only a select few would be able to know the location 'Cipher 1' to insure that Karin would be safe when either Nekesti or Tayuya isn't around.
When the 'The Pride of the Sith' was docked with the 'Emperors Blade' and 'Cipher 1' the two red heads went to explore their new ships while their armies got to setting in. Nekesti and HK-47 departed to the Star Forge via shuttle, once they were on the Star Forge Nekesti order the bloodthirsty droid to have the Observation Deck turned into a throne room and ordered the Star Forge to lower the disruptor field that protected the Rakata homeworld.
When he was informed that the disruptor field was down he sent a pulse of dark side through the force telling the sith and dark jedi looking for them to land on Lehon. After days of waiting most of the dark Jedi and sith arrived in the Lehon system the Imperial fleets directed the sith and dark jedi while vaporizing any stragglers.
Down on Lehon Nekesti, Karin, and Tayuya watched the various starships land and the all the different species debark from the ships. When Nekesti felt that there weren't any more people coming he killed any and every one of the sith or dark jedi that intended to try and kill by causing the ground below them open up and swallow them whole, leaving him with about 900,000 sith or dark jedi remaining, that didn't want to kill him. Seeing as Nekesti had better things to do than evaluate over 900,000 people he made 100,000 shadow clones to determine their role in the Reborn Sith Empire.
The remaining year before Nekesti sets his sights on Ibonihs IV was spent crushing the few Mandalorian clans that had a problem with him being the new Mand'alor and conquering every planet in the Ibonihs system except Ibonihs IV.
Current time, 33 BBY, Star Forge, Throne Room
"Its time" Nekesti said while getting up from the throne he had been sitting on for the past 6 hours.
"Time for what sithhead?" Tayuya asked in her forever vulgar way
"I believe he means it's time for us to return to Ibonihs IV." Karin said while pushing up her glasses.
"Correct I've just got word from Garra, Koyuki, and Mei that the Raikage has called a six Kage summit in the land of iron to discuss what to do with the Akatsuki (Yukigakure became one of the great shinobi village after Nekesti started supplying blaster and thermal detonators to them.)" Nekesti said
"Will they be attending?" asked Karin
"Yes they will and its best if we leave in the next two hours so that we can crash the party. So have your fleets ready to go." Nekesti commanded
"Sure Naruto/shithead" the two red heads said/ insulted
Karin and Tayuya walked out of the throne room leaving Nekesti to his own devices
2 hours later, 'Pride of The Sith', bridge
The two hours went by fast for Nekesti who spent the first 30 minutes giving Skylrei her orders. The remaining hour and 30 minutes was spent debating(arguing) with Tayuya on which method they should employ to conquer Ibonihs IV.
"I say we should bomb smaller villages and threaten the major villages with complete eradication" Tayuya yelled, with spit flying out of her mouth.
"On any other day I would agree with you but the major villages are the best places to find force sensitives with the main ninja academies. Destroying them would be detrimental to the entire point of us conquering the primitive ass planet. The best approach we should take is to wait the war to begin and swoop in and take out a large number of their forces" Nekesti stated in a calm voice.
"I'm in agreeance with Naruto, while having a repeat performance of a planet being turned into glass would make things a lot easier, it would set us back by about a few years at the least. Plus the Kages wouldn't submit to use unless a sizable part of their villages were destroyed which would be detrimental as Naruto said. And I wouldn't get any new test subjects." Karin butted in finally getting into the argument.
"Fuck you both, I still think my plan would be easier." Tayuya said not willing to admit that her plan would really set them back,
"We never said it wouldn't be easier, what we're trying to get u to understand is the fact that it's the worst possible plan for something this important. Now this matter is over." Nekesti commanded after shutting down any response that Tayuya could have said.
One hyperspace jump later, Ibonihs system, Ibonihs IV, 'Pride of the Sith', Nekesti's observation chamber
The hyperspace jump toke only a few hours with the new hyperdrive Nekesti developed.
Nekesti look at his homeworld with an impassive eye while he let his mind drift to the infinite amount of outcomes his attendance of the Kage summit could cause. The one that seem to appeal him the most was the outcome where Danzo died painfully by his hand.
When the thought of Danzo dying by his hand he started to daydream about the many methods of slowly killing someone. But before he could enjoy the thoughts of maiming and slowly flambéing Danzo he heard someone clear their throat, knocking him out of his sadistic thoughts.
When he turned around he saw Skylrei holding a datapad in one hand and a folder in the other. "What is it commander?" Nekesti asked wondering what was so important that she had to interrupt his sadistic daydream,
"My lord we have received intel on the planet. Its population seems to be thousands of years away from space travel." Skylrei stated before continuing to read off what Nekesti already know about the planet.
"I already know that our technology is far more advanced than theirs." Nekesti said interrupting Skylrei.
"How if I may ask my lord?" the Supreme Commander of the Imperial Fleet asked.
"This is the planet I was born on unfortunately" Nekesti said with a downcast expression.
Skylrei stood there shocked that her leader came from such a backwater planet. Not that it changed her opinion of her fearless leader.
"If that's all you have to report, have the Mandalorians, Necron's, heavy artillery and Rakatan Annihilators ready to go planet side to the coordinates Karin's given you in 23 hours' time" Nekesti commanded
"Yes my lord" Skylrei saluted and left to carry out the orders given to her.
When he felt Skylrei leave the room Nekesti sat on the throne that was facing the viewport and began to drift off into the land of dreams for some much needed rest.
1 day later
When Nekesti woke up he was greeted with the sight of hundreds of ships ranging from vehicle transports to troop ships descending to the planet's surface.
'Shithead the troops are already heading planet side are you ready to go yet or do you want to sit on your ass all day and sleep' Tayuya said over their mental link
Nekesti let out a yawn 'ya just make sure you wear your armor this time I don't feel like hearing you bitch about freezing while where in the land of snow or you to hot when where in the land of wind.' He thought back remembering what happened on Illum.
'Fuck you that was a one time' the vulgar red head mentaly yelled
'What about that time on Legankil I' the blond sith emperor countered
'I'm done talking to you' Tayuya yelled and cut the link
'Well that was fun. Let's see what armor sets should I bring with me.' Nekesti thought while walking to his chambers.
Ibonihs IV, Yukigakure
Yukigakure had underwent many changes in the 4 years and 9 months Nekesti met his masters. Such as its already advanced technology, gone were the hot air balloons in its place were Starfighters. Ninjas were replaced with imperial troopers and sith. The use of primitive weapons like Kunai were replaced with blasters, vibro weapons, and lightsabers.
The village its self didn't change much except for the citadel that was built over the grounds that the castle used to stand on.
This is where we find our favorite blond sith emperor who was conversing with Koyuki, Garra, and Mei about the Kage summit that they were already late for.
"while catching up with you 3 is fun and all we're late for the Kage summit" Nekesti said
Koyuki looked at the clock on the wall "Naruto kun why didn't you tell us were going to be late"
"Because I hired some bandits to slow down the other Kage by a few hours and that was an about an hour a-." Nekesti's comlink started beeping
Nekesti answered the comlink and the form of T.E.C.H appeared
"Master the True Mandalorian clan was wiped out by a Jedi strike force on Kalee." T.E.C.H said
"And your telling me this why, the so called True Mandalorians have been a pain in the ass since I crippled them and killed their false Mand'alor. Their timely demises opens up many opportunities. Since they failed to help the Kaleesh drive the Huk off Kalee, send clan Ordo and terror legion to wipe out the Huk and jam any communication to and from the planet." Nekesti commanded the spy droid.
"Yes my lord" T.E.C.H saluted before Nekesti hung up
Nekesti turned back to the 3 Kage. "Shall we go it would be rude if I didn't cause some old bastards to have a heart attack."
Somewhere in the Land of Iron
"Acho. Someone must be talking about me" a buxom blond said as she punched a bandit through a tree
Yukigakure, Citadel royal hanger
Nekesti, Tayuya, Karen, and the Kaze, Mizu, Yuki Kages were boarding the Imperial Assault shuttle that would take them to the land of iron.
"Pleading statement: Master please take me with you." HK-47 who was standing at the boarding ramp pleaded
"Why?" Nekesti asked
"Annoyed statement: that Knock off modal of me is making it hard not to use him as target practice." The trigger happy droid said
"Sure I might need you to blast some people" Nekesti said with an evil smirk thinking of the destruction HK-47 and him could cause.
"Exacted statement: thank you master I will happily mom down all the primitive fools if you order so."
"Then let's hope they give me a reason to" Nekesti said with his trademark sadistic smirk not that anyone could see it since he was wearing his helmet.
Land of iron, Roof the 6 Kage Summit building
Nekesti and co arrived in the land of iron in only one hour arriving just after the Tsuchikage who avoided the bandits Nekesti sent to stall him by flying the entire way.
The transport dropped its passengers off on the roof of the 6 Kage summit building. Nekesti, Tayuya, and Karin jumped out of the transport and used their jetpacks to descend to the roof. Once they were on the roof they use to force to lower the 3 Kage and HK-47 to the ground or in Mei's case into Nekesti's arm causing the lava user to blush and annoyed looks from the other two red heads.
Before Tayuya and Karin could voice their displeasure with their fellow red head Nekesti's comlink started beeping.
Nekesti grumbled something along the lines of "This better be important or heads will roll" and sat on the ground with Mei sitting in his lap.
Answering the comlink Skylrei's holographic form appeared "Emperor Nekesti were detecting strange power readings from the planets moon" the Supreme Commander said while saluting.
'Damn this is important. Hmm Akane wasn't bullshitting when she told me the fate of the sage's brother' Nekesti thought.
"Commander if that moon starts moving toward the planet have the 'Pride of the Sith', 'Emperors Blade', 'Cipher 1' and the rest of the fleet capture it with their tractor beams and hold it until I get there. Am I understood commander" Nekesti commanded his voice as cold as Illum.
"Yes my lord" Skylrei said fear evident in her voice. Skylrei had never spoken to any of his commanding officers with a voice so cold, she was honestly hoping that the moon stayed stationary otherwise her connection to the force was forfeit. She quickly cut the transmission to carry out her orders and to not possibly suffer the same fate her ancestor did.
Nekesti feed off the fear that was partially flowing off of Skylrei and increasing his already endless power.
Once the comlink was shut off and back on his belt, Nekesti sat up forgetting that Mei was in his lap causing her to fall onto the ground getting a startled scream from her.
Noticing that Mei was on the ground and remembering that she was sitting in his lap before the started beeping he helped Mei up. While he was doing this he didn't notice Tayuya and Karin laughing at their fellow red heads misfortune.
Once Mei was off of the ground Nekesti and co walked in to the building and headed to the where the Kage summit was being held.
When Nekesti and co walled into the room they were greeted by the Tsuchikage, his bodyguards who turned out to be his son and granddaughter, and Mifune the leader of the land of snow.
Once the pleasantries were over the 3 Kage allied with Nekesti sat in their respective seats and placed their Kage hats on the table. Tayuya, Karin and HK-47 walked up to the platform were the Kages bodyguards were assigned to sit. Once Tayuya and Karin were seated in the stands Nekesti unsealed a throne made out of skulls and gold and with an impressive display strength he picked up the throne with one hand and sat it between Mei and Koyuki's chairs.
"Mizukage-dono your bodyguard can't sit down here" Mifune said
"The two red heads that walked up to the platform are mine, the Kazekage, Yukikage and his bodyguards not that their needed. I've invited him to attend as he also wants the Akasuki gone" Mei said
"Why weren't we informed of this?" Mifune asked
"Because Konoha would have refused to attend out of guilt or sent an army to retrieve the son of the Yondaime and Red Habanero" Nekesti explained while moving his hand to his lightsaber incase the Tsuchikage tried to attack.
"ahhhahahaha you expect me to believe that you're the child of the Yondaime brat." Onoki laughed
"Whether you believe it or not does not concern me old man what you should be believe is what your granddaughter has been telling you, your way too old to be a Kage. You might as well retire and give you hip a brake gramps." Nekesti said hand still on his lightsaber.
"why you little- ahhhh my hip" Onoki tried to say before his hip broke
"Thank you for proving our point. Now I think you should head to the infirmary to get you hip put back in place." Nekesti said getting laughs form the 3 red heads in the room.
Nekesti got glares from Onoki and his bodyguards as they carried him to the infirmary.
"Finally some peace and quiet"
5 hours later, 6 Kage summit room
In the five hours that had passed Onoki had come back and the rest of the Kages arrived in the room and asked why Nekesti was here only to be told to wait until everyone arrived.
"Alright were all here no would any on like to explain who the strange man in the weird armor is and why he's here." A asked
"Pleading query: Master can I vaporize the steroid induced wannabe bane" HK-47 asked while aiming his blaster at A.
"No" Nekesti said with a smirk
"Brat you better control your guard before I destroy whatever that thing is" A threatened
"I know that you all are wondering who and why I'm attending this Kage only summit. Well wonder no more I am Darth Nekesti dark lord of the sith and emperor of the Reborn Sith Empire formally Naruto Uzumaki Namikaze the son of Minato Namikaze and Kushina Uzumaki or the 'Kyuubi brat' as Konoha loves to call me. As for why I'm attending this summit is very simple… the kaze, mizu, and Yuki Kages have entered an alliance with the Reborn Sith Empire and I would like to extend that offer to you as well." Nekesti said while reading the minds of the Kage looking to see which ones we willing to join his alliance.
"And the terms of this alliance would be?" A asked
"Well first and foremost your villages would become a part of my empire meaning that you would only be a Kage in title, you would still be in command of your villages and whatever I say is law. Secondly you would receive the advanced technology that the 3 Kage already allied have gotten." Nekesti said causing the Tsuchikage and Raikage laugh thinking he was joking.
"Brat you must be kidding do you really think we would give up our power as Kages" Onoki said still laughing
"Oh I think you misunderstand what I meant you have no choice in the matter. Either you join or we go to war, a war you have no chance at winning. To prove my point." Nekesti said and unsealed a large TV.
Nekesti cut the TV on and it showed a small village near the border of the land of iron. Then the screen splits in two, one side showing the village and the other half showing the 'Pride of the Sith'.
Nekesti then pulled out his comlink and activated the holoterminal on the bridge and commanded them to open fire on the village. "If you will turn your attention to the window you'll see the kind of fire power I have under my command."
When the Kage turned to window they saw streaks of light raining down from the sky where the village is located then a lot of smoke. "Now please turn your attention back to the TV I think you'll reconsider you choice" where the village used to be was a large 20 mile deep smoking crater.
A banshee like scream of cha echoed around the room as a pink haired bullet jumped down from the platform intending to kill or cripple Nekesti. When the pink bullet reached Nekesti it thrusted its fist forward aiming for his face. To the untrained eye the pink bullet would be a blur but to Nekesti knew who was trying to attack him, the pink hair was a dead giveaway. It was Sakura Haruno aka Naruto hater number one. Nekesti easily caught the punch and throw her over his shoulder at Mach 1 speeds. Sakura flew through 2 or 3 walls, before she could fly through a fourth wall Nekesti use the force to pull the girls face into his outstretched hand and slammed her head first into the wooden floor knocking her out.
"hmm I meant to send her through a few floors, the gravity of the planet must be heavier than what I'm used to." Nekesti thought out loud
Nekesti kicked Sakura in the stomach and walked back over to his throne. "That was pathetic but then again Sakura will always be a useless failure. Ending her now would be a great service to the world. But since I'm not a nice guy I'll rip her mind to pieces and rebuild it sometime later" Nekesti said once again thinking out loud.
Nekesti sat back down and turned back to the Tsuchi, Rai, and Ho Kages. "So who wants to make a deal and who wants to go to war" Nekesti said looking each Kage in the eyes.
"Naruto is that really you?" Tsunade asked hoping this wasn't a cruel prank.
"Yes and I would prefer that you call me Nekesti from this point on. Naruto you knew died the day he was banished and was reborn Darth Nekesti" Nekesti answered.
Hearing the part about him really being Naruto made Tsunade want to yell with glee at the fact that her cheerful godson was alive. But before she could Nekesti continued and her hopes were crushed.
"Nar…Nekesti what do you mean you were reborn?" Tsunade asked
"I will answer any question you have in private. Now do you want to join or not?" Nekesti asked getting slightly irritated.
"Yes Konoha will join you only if you kill the civilian council and the Fire Daimyō." Tsunade replied getting a sadistic smirk from Nekesti although no one could see because of his helmet.
"Sure I was going to do that even if you didn't accept my offer." Nekesti said smirk still on his face.
Nekesti used the force to sense if the other two Kage would join him or not. Both the Raikage and Tsuchikage were already thinking of was to kill him before he left the room. "I wouldn't attempt to kill me if I were you two, you see the same thing that happened to that village would happen to yours if you attack me anywhere other than the battlefield." Nekesti threatened voice as cold as ice.
"How?" the two Kages asked.
"Don't worry about that you won't live long enough to understand" Nekesti said. In a split second Nekesti was up out of his seat and the Raikage and Tsuchikage heads were severed and sent flying into the bodyguard platform hitting Kurotsuchi and Bee in the face.
"HK stun everyone in the platform except for Tayuya and Karin" Nekesti yelled
"Joyful statement: With pleasure master." The sadistic droid said while stunning the inhabitances of the platform.
While all of this happened Mifune was looking around in shock at what just occurred. If he was paying attention Mifune would have seen Nekesti's lightsaber coming for his head, but sadly he didn't and he lost his head for it.
To be continued…
Sorry about not updating for almost 2 months, as I said in the Star Wars The Old Republic section I started my own guild so I've been busy running it but now that I have everything the way I want it to be I can refocus on Fanfiction.
Also the results are in… The Rise and Fall of Hadzuska will be the name of the backstory of Hadzuska. You all can expect the first chapter on the 1 year anniversary of The Sith Reborn December 24th.
