AN: I finally got me Birth By Sleep Final Mix, it is such a bitch to unlock Eraqus Armor and No Heart (Xemnas Armor). I am only at level 20 at the mirage arena. If some one could tell me if there is an easier way to get to level 30 in mirage arena it would be much appreciated. So far I beat Monstro and Red Eyes, All I need to do is unlock the other two secret bosses.
Anyway that aside here is the new chapter, don't know when I will update any of my stories again considering that school is such a bitch but knowing me I get my work done fast and efficient not to mention I am an excellent multitasked so I might get the next chapter done by at least 2 or 3 weeks from now. If not I will update a new chapter in my other stories (except the Yugioh ones because I am at a blank pointy with Yugioh). Most likely Naruto of the Light will be the next story for me to update. All things considered enjoy.

Hideout
Back at Naruto's hideout Naruto sat on a throne made of darkness. He slouched as if he was bored. It has been three days sense Xigbar was sent to gather information on Akatsuki. For his plan to move forward he would need all the info he can get.
In the last three days Naruto mostly spent his time practicing his Mugengan and Keyblade skills on anyone who traveled through the forest (forest right outside the cave hideout). This helped his skills greatly seeing as combining the two powers at its best he is virtually strongest Keyblader up to date… but that is only a theory.
Agatha, Xaldin and Sasori has also been out, all three of them doing the things they love most. Agatha went man hunting, lusting for the hearts of strong but foolish men. Sasori tuned up his puppets or at least collecting more for his collection. As for Xaldin he no doubt was taking advantage of a poor soul and slaughtering anyone who would get in his evil way. He has a thing for goody girls who refused his every whim, most notable maidens of light. Although it is unknown where the Lancer went he said something about White Snow, Naruto and the others had no idea of what he was talking about.
But Naruto sat there bored, he had already did his training for today and now there was nothing to do. He is patient; he knows it takes awhile to gather secret files from well guarded villages. No matter how sly Xigbar is he still would not be so reckless to go in and start blasting everyone in sight that would be stupid. If he did that the Shinobi would shorely increase their forces.
The first to arrive back was Sasori. Naruto's eyes opened under his mask. "You have returned" Naruto said.
"I just tuned up some of my puppets, now they will be more flexible on the battlefield" Sasori said. Naruto did not say a word after, he had nothing to say to Sasori. The only thing he cared about at this moment was Xigbar's return.
"Any word from Xigbar" Sasori asked. Naruto shook his head. Sasori sighed, "It's such a shame, he should have been back by now" Sasori said.
"Be patient Sasori, Xigbar is an S-Rank spy, the Intel he will provide shall be plentiful" Naruto said. The next to arrive was Xaldin, the twisted Lancer arrived with a look of accomplishment. "I take it you had fun" Naruto said.
"I never thought those stupid dwarfs would dare try to appose me. Obviously the result was not pretty for them. As for my second maiden she is… well lets just say something's are better left unsaid" Xaldin said smiling sadistically. Naruto nodded his head understanding full well what the sadistic lancer said.
"My my you shorely are an atrocious one Xaldin" Agatha said teleporting into the cave. The three looked at the darkling maiden. "I just came from that once peaceful world you ruined. Everywhere I went was traced in your brutality. You left no trace off humanity in that peaceful woodland. Not a man, woman animal or child survived your wrathful lunge. If I am not mistaken you took advantage of that poor poor blackless maiden" Agatha said.
Xaldin grunted, "I feel very offended when people try to run from me" Xaldin said. Agatha narrowed her eyes but her smile still remained. "Why are you so interested in these blackless maidens anyway" Agatha asked.
"It's a fetish I have, to obliterate those without darkness physically and mentally. You can say I find it unfair that god would bless them with such a prowess as to be devoid of darkness when I was casted away to nothingness, forced not to feel or to care" Xaldin said.
Naruto raised his head, "God?" he simply said. Xaldin, Agatha and Sasori brought there attention to the masked heathen. "God is… unreal. The simple contradiction that light is good is surreal. If there is such a god why would he allow you to manipulate men and scorn their insides like a virus? Why would he allow you to turn a living being into a toy? Why would he allow you to simply wreck anyone who opposites you? Why would he forsaken anyone with shortcomings and mistreatment? What kind of god would live in the warmth of fire and let his children freeze out in the cold? There is no such thing as god" Naruto said coldly. The three soldiers looked at Naruto bewildered by his speech. "The only gods that can exist is those who immortalize themselves as such. God is only a title one can earn. Even those gods of Olympus have their limitations, just like any other powerful being that is on the same tear as a god. God is a fallacy, a road paved in blood and sacrifice" Naruto said.
"If a god is a lie then why do you search for such power on the same tear?" Agatha asked.
"That's simple, because I want to become a god" Naruto said simply. Agatha looked at Naruto with much respect, "Well said" she thought. Xaldin looked at Naruto seeing an image of Xemnas, the man who once led the mighty Organization 13. Sasori simply smiled knowing Naruto has the potential to live by his words.
"We will all become gods in a tear of or own. Those who see us will ether know worship or fear" Naruto said. All felt confident, like Naruto was the leader they were looking for. Xigbar walked in on the conversation from behind a wall. "That was heart warming" Xigbar said.
"What are you doing spying on us" Sasori asked.
"Displaying to our master how well my spy skills really are" Xigbar said. Naruto smirked from under his helmet. "Did you get what you were sent for?" Agatha asked. Xigbar took the papers out of his coat pocket. "Could you ever doubt me?" Xigbar said. Agatha looked at the papers, she looked through them and saw little to no information. "This is useless" she said.
"Of course it is, you think I would give you the real papers, as if. I got everything stored right here in my brain" Xigbar said.
"Oh" Agatha said.
"I did it that way so it wont be traced back, I read the files and returned them. I then wrote down everything I learned on a separate info book of mine" Xigbar said summoning a journal from darkness.
"Nice job Xigbar, I knew I could trust you" Naruto said.
"Wouldn't have been easier just to get the actually files" Xaldin asked.
"As if, there are ninja that can track by those papers. The darkness clouds our scent from even the best tracker ninjas, but there are some that can track us by those papers. The papers could be tagged and traced, specifically by the Akatsuki member Zetsu" Xigbar said. Agatha and Xaldin looked surprised, Sasori was not too surprised seeing as he knew Zetsu was a spy/tracker ninja (even though he did not know the full scale of Zetsu's powers).
Naruto summoned a desk out of darkness. He then moved his throne to the desk. He summoned seats made of darkness from Xaldin, Xigbar, Sasori and Agatha. "Let us hear what you have to offer" Naruto said.
"I gathered info on the Akatsuki, their history and their abilities. Where should I start boss man?" Xigbar asked.
"On their leader, Mandara Uchiha" Naruto said.
"Good old Mandara, he was a difficult one to find out. His history starts in the past around 100 years ago. He and the first Hokage was in the great shinobi war. The Uchiha and Sinju clans were the most powerful and well known clan, Uchiha for there Genjutsu and Sharingan and the Sinju for there Jutsu and power. Some time passed and the two clans along with a few others made a treaty. They built Konoha other wise known as the hidden leaf village. The Uchiha wanted political power but never got the chance. The Sinju clan took leadership over the village leaving the Uchiha only with the police force. Mandara tried to gather his clansmen and plan a ku but did not succeed. He left the village after that and was never heard from again… at least that what he wanted people to think. He formed Akatsuki to capture the nine demons sealed within Jinchuriki. Each member is scarcely powerful in their own way" Xigbar said. Out of all of them Sasori was the most surprised, he always assumed Pain was the leader of Akatsuki. "Mandara Uchiha went back to the village and attempted to destroy it. He summoned the nine tailed fox to do his biding" Xigbar said. This bit of info shocked Naruto but no one saw the reaction thanks to his mask. He and the forth Hokage fought, the only way for the forth to win was to seal the nine tailed with in his son… Naruto Uzamaki" Xigbar said. Naruto already knew that part, "Mandara Uchiha… what is his capabilities" Naruto said.
"Other then a more advanced set of Uchiha jutsu, he has the highest level of Sharingan, the Mangekyo Sharingan. He also has the ability to go into different dimensions although it is not on the same level as my own" Xigbar said.
"Mandara Uchiha… interesting and what of Itachi Uchiha" Naruto said.
"Oh ho ho I was wondering when you was going to ask me about him. Your gonna dig this boss man. Remember when he slaughtered his whole clan?" Xigbar asked.
"Yes, an act of murder because he wanted power" Naruto said.
"As if, he was ordered to do that from the third Hokage and the village elders, although he neglected to kill his little brother which is why he had to become a rouge ninja" Xigbar said. This also surprised Naruto, "so Itachi was not one who hungered for power, only a puppet who got manipulated by the puppeteer" Naruto said. Sasori smirked from the puppet reference.
"Yup, he joined the Akatsuki to keep an eye on Mandara Uchiha; he is till secretly working for Konoha. He is a double agent" Xigbar said. Naruto stood quiet for awhile, "what can he do?" Naruto asked.
"He is a master of the Sharingan and Genjutsu, he has the Mangekyo Sharingan which enhances the effects of his Genjutsu. Other then that he is skilled in fire and water jutsu along with having a flock of crows spying on whoever he needs to spy on" Xigbar said.
"If he is spying on me it has been stopped, ever sense I got the Mugengan I cannot be traced by Sharingan or scent. His birds must have lost their target long ago. But now I know he use them to spy, My next plan of attack will draw Itachi out" Naruto thought.
"Anyone else you want to know about?" Xigbar asked.
"Tell me about the rest later, the only person I want to know about now is Orochimaru" Naruto said.
"Oh the former Akatsuki member, I did not get much on him but I know he is a scientist who uses forbidden jutsu. Another thing I got was their current hideout" Xigbar said.
"I know about Orochimaru" Sasori said. Everyone turned to Sasori. "He experiments on people and turn them into monstrosities. He is in search for the perfect body, specifically one with the Sharingan. He left the Akatsuki because he could not defeat Itachi no matter what Jutsu he had" Sasori said. "So that's why he wants Sasuke" Naruto thought.
"Here is what we are going to do" Naruto said. He then opened a dark portal and got two Organization coats. "With the exception of myself, you will all be wearing these coats for the time being. With the hood on they hide your face and with enhancements from the Mugengan your scents are already hidden" Naruto said. Agatha and Sasori grabbed the coats. Xigbar and Xaldin were already wearing theirs. "We will go to this hideout and take out Orochimaru" Naruto said.
"Why Orochimaru?" Sasori asked.
"Because I need to get to Sasuke" Naruto said. Agatha and Sasori put their coats on. "Does this make my butt look big" Agatha asked. Sasori looked , "Yeah it kind of does" he said. "Good" Agatha said satisfied with the coat.
"If I get rid of Sasuke that will draw out Itachi, and I get rid of Itachi the others will come in place. It's a cycle of deaths that will reward me with the end of Akatsuki" Naruto said. Xigbar opened a dark portal. "This will lead us a few feat away from their hideout" Xigbar said. Naruto walked in the portal without a word. "Lets give them hell guys" Xigbar said pulling up his hood. The others did the same as they all walked through the corridor of darkness.

Outside of Orochimaru's castle stood four hooded figures and the masked Naruto. Without a word Naruto ran forward. He used his hand signs, "Mugen Style Wind Squall Blow" he said as he blasted out a gust of wind from his mouth/mask. The gust of wind destroyed the door. Naruto and company ran through the fortress. Sound Shinobi came at them from every direction. At once they all created a sound wave out of chakra. Naruto did more hand signs "Mugen Style Sin Mirror Force" Naruto shouted as mirrors surrounded him and his platoon. The mirrors reflected the sound attack back at all the enemies making them explode from the pressure.
Through out the loud speaker Kabuto's voice rang. "Attention everyone attention everyone, destroy the intruders". More sound Ninja came from every direction blocking Naruto and his platoon. "Show them no mercy" Naruto said as he and Sasori disappeared into the shadows. Xigbar, Xaldin and Agatha summoned their respective weapons. Xigbar warped away, "Wind guard me!" Xaldin casted an Aeroga spell over him. Shinobi tried to get near the lancer but was scarred and decimated by the intense wind shield.
Agatha swirled around like a top, "Burn!" she shouted as she span with flames creating a green flaming tornado. Shinobi tried to run away from her but they were pulled in by the burning tornado. When they made contact they burned to ashes. One of the shinobi used a water shockwave in an attempt to stop Agatha's fire tornado. "BEWARE THE WIND OF DESPAIR!" Xaldin shouted as he blasted a burst of wind from his hands that collided with the water shockwave and severed the shinobi into pieces.
More shinobi ran to the area but as soon as they saw the catastrophic damage Agatha and Xaldin did some began to run away. As soon as they turned to run Xigbar shot them down with bullets that explode on impact. The shinobi looked everywhere but could not spot the Freeshooter. The bullets came from different worm holes from the void of space. One of the shinobi looked at the slaughterhouse that became of their hideout. He began to run but he felt a presence behind him. He turned around to see a hooded figure pointing a gun in his face. The shinobi went to his knees "please don't kill me" he pleaded. The hooded figure laughed at the shinobi begging for his life. He pulled the trigger while laughing and blew the shinobi's head right off his shoulders. "Opps my finger slipped" Xigbar said.
Xaldin levitated throughout the fortress, his wind shield ripping apart anything it touched. He walked passively and bored with one hand behind his back. "Where's the fun in this?" he said having no one else to kill. He then grabbed three of his lances and started to rip apart shinobi that were trying to escape. One of the shinobi used a sound jutsu to blast him. He quickly used the wind to evade the attack and elbowed the shinobi in the stomach with his six lances piercing him. Two in his eyes, one in his crouch, two in his legs and one still in Xaldin's hand which he then drove into the shinobi's throat.
Agatha danced a dance of death, with a Keyblade filled with green flames he zipped through the shinobi like a butterfly dancing in the wind. More shinobi came her. Although some was shot down by Xigbar three more nearly got to Agatha. "THUNDER DAWM THESE FOOLS TO OBLIVION"! Agatha raised her Keyblade to the sky and used a black lightening spell. The shinobi that were hit by the thunder attack withered away into ash.
Xigbar kept shooting all the shinobi. Warping from place to place no one can catch this equivocal shooter. If they tried they were shorley shot down to chunks by the freeshooters explosive bullets. He reloaded his guns, the shinobi took the time to attack the Freeshooter until he opened his hand and casted a zero gravity spell. The shinobi lost balance and floated in the air unable to control his light body. Xigbar then used him as target practice as he switched his bullets from blast to shock. The shinobi got shot up and was electrocuted to death.
Before they even knew it there was no more shinobi to fight. Agatha sighed, "was this the best they can muster" she said disappointed. Xigbar shrugged his shoulders, "well it does not matter, boss man said only take apart the soldiers and secure the area. I'd say its pretty secure" Xigbar said.
Xaldin sat on a pile of rubble. He looked around to see the dead bodies of all the shinobi who attempted to survive against them. Most of the bodies were unable to be identified seeing as most of the dead were ether severed, blown to bits or burned to a crisp. Xaldin looked at one of the wounded shinobi crawling away with only one leg and one arm. Xaldin sighed, he then pierced the shinobi with one of his lances putting him out of his misery.

Orochimaru watched the intrusion from a private screen. "Such raw power, who are these fools?" Orochimaru asked. "Lord Orochimaru, given the circumstances I believe we should get Sasuke and get out of here. By that time you should have his body, and if worse comes to worse I can always use… that jutsu" Kabuto said. "And what jutsu would that be?' Sasori's voice echoed through the room. Using Deidara and his clay bombs Sasori blew an entrance for him to walk through. Orochimaru and Kabuto turned their attention to the hooded man.
"A human made puppet, I can only surmise that you are Sasori of the red sand" Orochimaru said. Sasori took of his hood. "You don't miss a thing Orochimaru" Sasori said, His face ever young as always for besides Deidara Orochimaru is one of the only ones that saw his actual face.
"So Akatsuki has come after me, you also have new uniform" Orochimaru said. Sasori did not say a word at first he then summoned his three puppets from the darkness. His guillotine bladed puppet Blaz, his elemental duel bladed puppet Leogun, and defensive scorpion puppet Hiroku2. Along with Deidara Sasori have four puppets in use at the moment. Orochimaru chuckled, "You have a whole new bag of tricks, and you're not using your third Kazekage puppet" Orochimaru said.
"An artist never reveals his secrets, you should know that Orochimaru. All these years you've been in search of forbidden jutsu, forbidden art" Sasori said.
"Clever as always aren't we" Orochimaru said pulling a sword from his sleeve. "I see we have a lot in common. As I searched for jutsu you searched to become immortal in the eyes of art" Orochimaru said. Orochimaru looked at Kabuto, "Get Sasuke for me" he said. Kabuto ran out of the door. Sasori looked at Kabuto but did not issue any orders out to his puppets to destroy him. "I'll let your apprentice leave, little does he know he is walking into a death trap" Sasori said.
"You speak much nonsense; he and Sasuke are prepared to take on what ever threat this earth has to offer. I made shore of that" Orochimaru said confidently.
Sasori closed his eyes and then opened them, "what if the threat is not of this earth" he said.
"Enough talk, lets end this" Orochimaru said drawing second sword over his shoulders. Sasori glared the man down not making a move but twitching his eyes. Blaz moved forward and Orochimaru charged at the puppet.

Naruto walked through the last room of the fortress. There he saw a wide opened area with serpent statues, standing in between to of the statues was a dark shadowy figure. "Another weakling for me to chop down" the young man said from the shadows. He walked forward to reveal his identity. Sasuke Uchiha, the boy who went astray and left his comrades behind.
"Sasuke….." Naruto said. Sasuke glared at the mask boy. "Rumors were going around about a masked shinobi who slaughtered any passerby ninja that came his way. Who would have known that that same shinobi would show up at my door step" Sasuke said.
Without a word the masked boy summoned his Void Gear Keyblade. Sasuke looked at the weapon, "that weird sword... what kind of power might it possesses" Sasuke said.
"I have powers far beyond your understanding. You cannot defeat me" Naruto said calmly.
"You misunderstand, I am of the Uchiha Clan, and nothing is above us. Not even you… who ever you are" Sasuke said. Naruto chuckled, "I promises to make this as painful as I can …comrade" Naruto said to Sasuke. Sasuke surged lightening through his blade. "Comrade… teh whatever…. I will herald your end" Sasuke said.
AN: This story will get a lot darker, I know some are asking why Xaldin is so disturbing and destructive and possibly distasteful to some. This is something I always wanted to do with his character but never really got the chance to. I tried in the original Flawless Military but I did not fit with what I had in mind, which is one of the reason (I have a lot more reasons) I am re doing that story. Remember this is a dark Naruto Fic meaning bad things is going to happen to good people.
I am holding off on Sora and the good guys for now next will reveal a bit of Naruto's plan for Sora and his friends.
Also don't forget to vote on who will mentor Roxas in my upcoming story, so far Xigbar is winning second is Xaldin and then Saix considering that some people voted through reviews.
Send your feedback and ask any questions. I will PM or answer the questions when I update the next chapter.
