Chapter 10
The Unveiling
Truth

Naruto began to regain his focus over his surrounding, only to regretting the next minute. The blond felt the pain rolling over his body.

It was then Naruto's memories resurface and let out a irritant groan. He remembered his battle with the San-Hashiratenshu, and the Bijuu's (Japanese:Tailed Demons) Chakra surfacing.

The blond Seito fighter then opened his eyes, but his vision was still blurry. He then moved to rub his eyes, only to find the said hands remaining unmoved. Once the blonde's eyes reset themselves, Naruto weakly glanced up to see His arms tried above his head by his wrist and then looked down to see himself laying on his knees.

"So it seems your finally wake." A voice rang out and Naruto turned his head in the direction of the voice. Naruto was met with a sickening sight to say the least.

The person he called out was Kan'u, and she looked beyond the point of exhausted. The Seito leader was almost stripped of her cloths, save for her underwear covering her crouch, her shirt was torn enough to expose her breast, and she had mild bruises on herself. Naruto in all honestly saw little concern over the bruises, since, Kan'u can shake those off, though his dress state was a little embarrassing to look at.

It was when Naruto began to sense a small stream of energy flowing off of Kan'u that he investigated deeper. The blonde followed the aura to the source and to his horror, he realized that Kan'u's Tanden was severely cracked.

Naruto examined the wound closely and could not believe that such a bad injury and Kan'u was still alive.

"What happened to you?" Naruto asked his friend for an explanation on her condition.

Kan'u let out a sigh in shame "I fought Jyokyo and he struck my Tanden." She began to speak "After that I lost conscious, You probable showed up. I woke up after I felt a gigantic energy signature near me. I then saw it was you."

Naruto felt himself shudder. He had hoped Kan'u hadn't saw that, but it was what Kan'u said next that made him hate the event even more.

"Naruto…" Kan'u then began to speak "What was that?"

The blond lowered his head in shame at that. "A mistake." was all he spoke.

Before Kan'u could attempt to gorge out anymore information, Naruto then said "Why are you even here?"

"I struck a deal with Kyoshou." Kan'u answered "They called off the invasion if You and I were placed in Kyoshou's grasp. I agreed to keep Ryuubi-Sama out of Harm's way." She spoke with a hint of shame.

Naruto then sigh in frustration "The invasion was a failure…" He informed his friend "Ryuubi was safe in everyone's hand when I left to get you."

Kan'u's eye widened in surprise and joy.

The doorway to the chapel designed room opened to reveal both Choukou Shungai, and Gakushin Bunken.

"Well, Well, Well…" Choukou began to speak. "Look at the sight we have here, Two of Seito's most powerful fighter, All defeated and in such a picture perfect, a weak, struggling, pathetic, and dieing…"

"I'm dieing of boredom, Motor mouth." Naruto sarcastically snapped at the Member of the San-Hashiratenshu.

Choukou did not take kindly to being interrupted, and showed off his irritation, by taking the staff he held and slamming it against Naruto abdominals. The blow wasn't a nearly as powerful as the pervious attack, but the pain was still the same.

"Shut the fuck up bitch!" Choukou shouted in fury at the smack talk his prisoner. "Don't forget that while Sousou may want you for what ever the fuck his problem is! But that doesn't mean I can't torture you…"

"I'm having enough of you talking." Naruto interrupted the fighter's speech. That statement earned a smack against the head with the same staff.

"What the Fuck is up with you listening to other people." Choukou lashed out even harsher then ever. "I don't think your in any position to even speak. After all your our prisoner, so the only thing we what to hear, and that's…"

"Why you don't have a life." Naruto spoke to the Cocky Kyoshou fighter.

Earning let another slap against the cheek, leaving behind a light, bleeding mark on the blonde's face.

"Do you really Want to piss Me Off Motherfucker?" Choukou barked at the fighter as he glared at Naruto with noticeable rage "If it wasn't for the fact Sousou-Sama wanted to meet You I would…!"

"Choukou Calm Down." Gakushin ordered "If you keep pummeling Him, you only earn Sousou's wrath." She was warning her colleague.

Choukou only glared at her before scoffing and returning back to his former punching bag. "Consider yourself Luck…" he stopped himself as he saw the wound that Choukou had previous left was sealing itself up, leaving, not a drop of blood, not a scar, or even a bruise.

Everyone saw the event with widened eyes and shocked minds. Naruto noticed this and his wound was healed. 'Damn it!' Naruto though furiously. 'What the fuck is happening?'

"What the fuck?" Choukou voiced out his dumbfounded. Gakushin was as equal as dumbfounded at the pace the wound healed. Kan'u was with the two Kyoshou's fighter on her friend's rapid healing abilities. At first the Seito Fighter's thought assumed that Naruto's healing abilities played a role, but the wound seemed to be covered with a thicker amount of energy then before.

Choukou then raised his staff to bring it up to Naruto's chin and forcible raised the rest of the blonde's head up. Once the Seito's fighter's head was up glaring back at the Kyoshou's own face, Choukou swiftly struck the side of Naruto's head, causing another wound to form were the previous one formed.

Not a second later did the new injury started to seal up with the same thick energy.

"What the fuck is up with you?" Choukou spoke with a slight thought of intrigue at the ability.

Naruto only glared at the assaulting Kyoshou fighter, refusing to answer.

Choukou also realize Naruto's action, and sooner realized that he would not get an answer by playing mister nice guy, in his opinion of course. It was then another plan formulated that would surly get some sort of answer, if not everything they needed to know.

"So you like to play dumb, huh Retard?" Choukou spoke as he lowered his victim, that only continued his glare. "Well if your not going to talk, then maybe…" He spoke mischievously as he raised himself and turned towards Kan'u "This hot excuse of a Women could give us a hand." he finished as he walked over to the second in command of Seito.

Choukou stopped in front of the bond down Seito fighter and the thrust his staff into the girl's abdominals.

"So.." The Kyoshou fighter spoke cruelly "Let's get down to business." Choukou twist the staff a bit to add a bit of pain. "What do you know about this freak?" he spoke forcefully.

Kan'u refused to speak, or even acknowledged that she heard the Fighter's question.

"Oh." Choukou spoke in fake surprise "So you like playing hard to get too? Fine by me." he added with a lust filled grin as he brought up one end of his staff and began to lick along the tip of the pole. He brought the same end towards Kan'u's exposed breast and rubbed it against the nipple.

Kan'u felt the cold tip of the staff scrape against the center of her exposed mound, and naturally flinched at the unwelcome feeling.

Choukou seemed to noticed the sudden movements and continued his current frowned upon action.

"Leave her Alone." Choukou heard the only male prisoner speak with clear anger. Choukou smirked as he final managed to push his prisoner's button and rubbed the staff along the chest to make his disobedient clear.

It was then that the dishonorable fighter felt a hand on his shoulder and saw Gakushin. "These aren't our orders Choukou and you know it." she spoke as if she was trying to warn her partner of crossing over to unfamiliar territory.

Choukou only scoffed. "So?" he said "Sousou wants answer to that freak's power, and I'm getting them." he explained his reason for his actions.

"Not like this." Gakushin spoke, knowing that Choukou's story was only half true, a partial attempt to cover up his lust filled nature.

"If this is about me then leave her out of it!" Naruto demanded with anger sipping out of his throat and towards the offending fighter.

Choukou then began to push on the staff to stab the chest' mound that belong to Kan'u harshly. "Make me. "Choukou taunted as he enjoyed the show he put on for himself.

Naruto managed to reach his feet and tried desperately trying to break the chain, but his physical strength was exhausted. He could not rely on his teacher for help as it was no doubt Hiryuu was still trying to suppress his energy.

"Use it Naruto." the same dragon Naruto thought about spoke to it representative host.

Naruto naturally was shocked at that note. 'Not a chance in hell Hiryuu!' he spoke to the dragon. 'That's the last thing I want to do and you know it!'

"What's is the other option Naruto?" Hiryuu spoke calmly despite his student's outburst. The white dragon knew he was gambling a lot making Naruto doing something that he didn't want, but it was only for the boy's own good.

'I can call on your power to break the chain and…' Naruto tried to speak the reason to avoid the other choice.

Whatever plan the blond had fell to deaf ears as Hiryuu roared "Naruto, What's more important! Your Life, or hers!"

Naruto was quieted at that, but Hiryuu wasn't finished. "This power is a part of you like it or Not. You either have the choice to accept it, or continue to act like a spoiled Brat. It's Your call!"

Naruto was stunned by the outburst his teacher acted. As far as Naruto knew, Hiryuu always spoke with a calm tone, never wavering towards a favor side. It was here that Naruto realized what Hiryuu wanted him to do. That very thing was to sacrifice his the life he worked on keeping, and prevent Kan'u from being captured by Kyoshou, or worse, the very claws of death.

"So, I don't have a choice." Naruto spoke to himself.

Unintentional, this phrase was heard by the two member's of the San-Hashiratenshu and Kan'u. All three assumed The blond was finally going to start Talking, with Choukou slightly disappointed that his fun was interrupted, Gakushin curious, about some of her question that would be answered, and Kan'u looking shock at the Fact the her friend would so easily open up.

Naruto groaned, which he did mostly to himself, and brought his hands together. He molded the finger in strange and abnormal movements, finally ending it with both hand's index and middle fingers crossing one another. Naruto's eyes were closed thought out this whole ordeal. Everyone then heard the Blond fighter mumble something they could not make out.

When the hands seemed to contact with one another perfectly, a mild draft floated in the room, which quickly became a strong gust. As the gust became to stir more and more, a blue like aura began to form in thin, transparent streams that swirled around the blonde's whole being. The stream began to turn thicker and thicker, with the power becoming more noticeable with it.

Everyone was beginning to tremble slightly as the volume of the ever growing power. While their were noticeable similarities to the power they felt earlier, the main difference was the current power didn't feel alive.

The energy then started slowly deteriorate and evaporate in thin air, while Naruto still had his eye's closed throughout the whole event.

"What the fuck was that Freak?" Choukou spoke with demand evident in his tone "We want answers, Not a light show!"

It appeared to happened the moment Choukou finished speaking his piece. A cloud of Smoke appeared in front and enveloped the said fighter. Not a second later Choukou screamed in pain as he was sent flying into a wall.

A shadow then dashed out the stirring smoke and appeared before Gakushin, delivering a punch straight to her abdominals and sending her flying towards the wall. Gakushin collision was about to rob her of her awaken state, but she managed to see something that made her think that made her believe that she was insane.

Standing in the center of the room was none other then Naruto himself. Gakushin finally stumbled to her slumber, but Choukou and Kan'u saw everything clearly, but still were staring at the whole scene in disbelief.

The picture accurately showed two Narutos, One standing in the very center of the room, while the other Naruto was still strangled by the arms in shackles.

Choukou was glancing back between both Narutos, while Kan'u did the same thing in absolute disbelief.

The second Naruto then walked over to Choukou and harshly lifted him up into the air with one hand and used the other hand to grab a ring of keys in the Kyoshou fighter's pocket. The copy of Naruto then flung the fighter he held over his shoulder and towards a wall head first.

Choukou managed to curl his head into his chest and allowed the back of his neck to take the blunt of the blow, but he was then knocked out after he slammed against the stone wall, and hit the cold marble floor.

The copy of Naruto managed to shuffle through the set of keys to find the precise one to unlock the shackles on both it's creator and walked over to dislodge the wrist pieces. The original Naruto managed to bring himself to his feet and swiped the keys from his clone, the said copy the disappeared in a cloud of smoke.

The original Naruto made his way over to Kan'u and immediately placed the key in the lock of her cuffs, unlocked them, and then hastily placed his hand on his friend's bare waist and began to place his energy to healing the badly ruined Tanden, sparing no words to the Second in command about the past events.

Kan'u on the other was filled with questions, but her mouth could not voice any of it out of a stressed and stunned mind.

Naruto pushed a little more force in repairing the crack in the Tanden and finally felt the severe wound seal up.

Naruto then pushed a little of his own energy to replenish his friend's body. Once this task was complete, Naruto pulled his hand back and then, while still kneeling, wrapped his around Kan'u shoulder blade, and under her knees.

After The blonde felt he had properly gripped his friend, he raised himself and Kan'u off the ground and to his own feet. Naruto turned his head to the girl in his arms and spoke "I better get you out of here before…"

A loud, robotic beeping noise was then ringing across the room that both Seito fighter intensely recognized as a fire alarm. Naruto spun himself to see Choukou pulling the lever that triggered the alarm.

Choukou was grinning at his victory. "You aren't going anywhere no freak." He spoke weakly, as it was evident to his wounded state.

Naruto only glared at the Kyoshou fighter, deciding against any retaliation and favored more of the idea of getting his friend off enemy grounds.

The blonde then ran out of the room as fast as he could, hoping with all his might that all he would have to face was foot soldier.

(Kyoshou's Storage Warehouses.)

Kakouton, who looked was dressed in his normal street fashion, plus a skull, cross bone eye patch over his destroyed left eye, was carrying his friend, Sousou , with his leader's arm over his shoulder Along with Kyocho Chuukou, One of Sousou's oldest friend.

Taking a look back over Sousou, he noticed the his friend's eyes were shut and was breathing heavily, no doubt from exhaustion. Then he was a surprisingly tall women, that towered over most people in height. She had short, black hair, and wore a volley ball style clothing that clang to her figure.

Kakouton sighed in frustration the message about his friend going berserk had gotten to him to late. The Kyoshou fighter arrived just in time to see Kyocho Chuukou calming him down, with most of the other fighter, including Shiba, who was present, and Chouryou Bun'en, a tanned skinned, blond haired man that was promoted as new Kyoshou's strategist, after Kakuka died.

"Hey Buddy…" Kakouton spoke to his recovering friend, How you holding up?"

Sousou didn't answer at first, but he managed to groan out "Fine…" He spoke as he tried to stand on his own two feet, but his own energy, that he used to keep his dragon suppressed, was still exhausted.

Kakouton nodded as he continued to walk.

Meanwhile, Chouryou was wheeling Shiba in her wheelchair, as thy followed behind the group from a safe distance.

"Sousou is beginning to break down Shiba." The blond man spoke to his superior. "That the fifth time this week he went crazy, and their only getting worse." he commented on his School's leader's deteriorating condition.

"I'm well aware of that." Shiba spoke in her neutral voice, or to Chouryou an uncaring tone "Once we acquire the other Hyakuhekito, we'll be able to keep Sousou in check. Until then, we just have to be careful and hope he doesn't lose it."

Chouryou nodded, but inward he glared at the co-Leader of Kyoshou. 'So, your trying to use Sousou too, Huh?' he thought to himself.

It happened so suddenly, a tidal wave, like breeze flown over the group briefly and vanished.

Everyone of the fighter's were stupefied at the tremendous amount of energy. Every mind was racing with questions of the source of the energy, until another though came over them.

The present Kyoshou fighter turned their eyes towards Sousou, who, in Shiba's and Chouryou's view head was raised. To Kakouton and Kyocho, Their friend's eyes had morph to his red dragon eye, and then formed the kind of eyes they hated to see. The eyes of a blood thirsty killer.

Both fighter that carried Sousou were instantly thrown to the side, by the demonized Sousou and the possessed fighter started to run in the direction of the school.

Everyone managed regain their baring intimae to see Their leader running like a rabid animal.

"What the hell wrong with him Now?" Kakouton shouted as his mind tried to decipher the events.

Before anyone could answer, or voice a suggestion, all present heard an alarm ring, and all instantly knew where it was coming from.

"Is the school under attack?" Chouryou spoke in shock.

Shiba then said "Whatever it is, They better be ready for Sousou."

(Kyoshou Academy)

Naruto was slipping through the hallways with extreme caution. The corridors were swarming with some of Kyoshou's fighter is group ranging from Duos, and three man squad.

Naruto had been keeping his senses sharp, heeding his eyes towards every shadow, and his ears detecting every foot step. Before he knew it, The blond Then saw a group of fighter coming around the corner and pushed himself and Kan'u through a double door. Only then did Naruto realized that he had entered a kitchen.

Naruto then walked over further into the kitchen and laid Kan'u on a counter top gently. The blond then began to shift his upper body to glance around the room, mainly at the entrances.

"Naruto…" Kan'u called out, successfully gaining her mystique friend's attention. "Wha… What did you just do?" was all she asked, not that Naruto expected anything less.

"Something…" The blonde began to speak "That I don't regret doing at the moment." was all he spoke.

Before the Seito leader could utter another word, both Seito fighter then heard "I'm telling ya…" an, energetic, feminine voice rang out "I have a feeling in my gut, that telling me that I'll reign surprise over this guy." She declared with utmost confidence in her spirit.

Naruto quickly lifted his friend off the counter top and he hide himself and Kan'u in a opened dry good room. He then smoothly placed Kan'u on the ground and turned back towards the doorway to get a good look at the incoming fighter.

To her two companion, they saw it was unsupported arrogance. "Soujin-San…" One of the fighter spoke up to the girl as the group finally stepped through the door way.

The girl revealed to be wearing a sock hat, with a dark pink sweat shirt, and a grey and white strip mini skirt. There were two other that followed the girl, wearing plaint-shirts and jeans.

"Don't you remember the guy took down a lot of our guys and …" one of the two fighter spoke to the leader of the group.

Soujin snorted "So, those guys were weak, not like me of course." she spoke with utmost pride.

"But.." the other fighter spoke up, but only for the lone girl to raise her hand to order silence to the doubtful subordinates.

"Not another word you two, I'm going to find this guy, their no way he could even dream of defeating someone like me!" Soujin declared as she pumped her fist into the air.

In a split second a shadow like figure appeared behind The girl and slammed something over her head, revealing to be a large, double handled pot.

Soujin's mind was trying to collect the event that suddenly taken place, but the other fighter realized the fighter was indeed Naruto and moved to punch him in the head.

Naruto reacted by moving the pot that still contained Soujin's head and deflected the punches.

The two fighter recoil at the failed attempt to attack the escapee, and Naruto threw his blind hostage at them and as the trio stumbled. The blond Seito fighter lowered himself and swung his left leg to trip the duo, and force the two fighters to land on Soujin, clanging their heads together and putting them through a daze.

Naruto stood back up properly and hastily ran towards dry good area to see Kan'u standing on her own two feet, but she was using the shelf's as support.

"You sure your okay to walk on your own?" Naruto asked the Second-in-command about her condition. The blond knew that Kan'u still a some issues with her pride in herself, but it couldn't hurt to ask.

"I'm fine." Kan'u answered as she let go shelf's began to walk, a little weak at first, but she managed to recover her balance in no time.

Naruto nodded as he observed Kan'u being able to steady herself on her feet and began to walk a little smoother.

Both fighter easily left the kitchen and they snuck through the hallways, making their way slowly toward the entrance.

They quietly exited the kitchen and glanced around

After a few careful turns around the hallway, they managed to find an exit, but to their intense annoyance, it was blocked off , by at least five fighter.

"We better find another way out." Naruto informed Kan'u "We can't waste out energy dealing with an army on us."

Kan'u consider this, and agreed with the insight. "Should we try and go to the second floor, and find a fire escape?"

"Good idea…" Naruto nodded his head. "If we're lucky, maybe their already spring opened."

At that, both Seito fighter's moved out, climbed a flight of stairs and glanced around carefully for any of Kyoshou's men. Good fortune was smiling on them so far, Everyone seemed to had evacuated to the lower level, probable thinking that the escapees would try exiting through the first floor.

Both Seito fighter peered around and Kan'u managed to spot a fire escape ladder on the end of the hallway. Both of them then quietly ran towards the window, only to be stopped by Naruto and Kan'u own senses.

As predicted, a wire appeared in front of the escapees and they followed it to confirm that its owner was indeed Kakouen.

Naruto narrowed his eyes and he stared off at the interceptor. "I take it your going to try and stop us?"

Kakouen said nothing as she whipped her arm that held her weapon, causing the wire to shoot toward the Seito duo. Both managed to avoid getting tangled up with Naruto diving over it and with Kan'u splitting her legs to duck under the attack.

Both of the Seito fighter managed to regain their composer and Naruto brought his arms to guard against Kakouen flying kick. Naruto grinded his arms and pushed the opposing fighter away.

Kakouen landed safely, and she forced to move after Kan'u tried to delivered a sharp kick to the intruder.

Kakouen rebound on the wall and fell to her feet. No sooner had she landed she brought his hand to catch an incoming fist from Naruto. After she planted a firm grip on She slid behind the blond fighter while still grasping his arm and moved her other to strike a single nerve spot on the back of her opponent's neck.

Naruto managed to lean his neck and back forward to narrowly dodge the attack, then reeled his head backwards to bash his skull against Kakouen's face.

The Kyoshou fighter stumbled backwards at the impact of her opponent's counter attack. Kakouen barely shot back two feet before Naruto delivered a swift Kick to the girl's abdominals, sending her flying into the wall.

As soon as Sousou's most loyal fighter crashed against the wall, she tried desperately to regain her footing. Naruto watched on as his opponent used the wall as support, but still showed signs of being to exhausted.

Naruto only continued to stare as he spoke "I know, you don't want to…" before he could finish, The three tussling fighter heard a gurgling scream in the hallways.

Everyone turned to the source of the scream only to see at the end of the hallway was a shadow that cast over a blood painted wall.

The shadow began to move across the wall until a blurry figure appeared between the corridors. Once focus, everyone saw the figure a male with mess brown hair, a regular white t-shirt, battered with blood, and black cargo pants, and arms that were pouring with blood.

Everyone didn't need get a clear view of the newcomer to see it was none other then Sousou Moutoku, the Leader of Kyoshou High School. They also realized that, currently, The very same Sousou standing in the hall was also possessed.

"Kan'u…" Naruto spoke to his friend, who immediately turned most of her attention towards the fighter that called her.

"Take Kakouen and move out of the way." Naruto ordered bluntly, before Sousou shot forward with unimaginable speed.

Naruto stiffened his guard as Sousou crashed into Naruto and rammed the said blond into a wall.

The blond Seito fighter quick subsided the pain he felt to bring his foot up to slam against the Kyoshou leader's chin, causing the same fighter to stumble backwards. Naruto didn't hesitate as he quickly spun around, and launched a kick to the Kyoshou Leader's abdominals.

Sousou landed on his back and slid towards the opposite wall, slamming the back of his head and shoulder against the lockers filled wall,

Naruto quickly dashed over and place his left hand on the Kyoshou's forehead and his right on the center of his chest. Naruto began to focus his power to calm Sousou's dragon.

Before a second passed, Naruto tried desperately to balance his energy's flow, but for some strange reason, the power was in a swirling typhoon of disorder.

The next second Sousou let loose a punch into Naruto that sent him flying off of the leader's being and flipped himself back onto his feet. Sousou then began to speed toward his fallen opponent, but Kan'u swiftly intercepted by kicking the Kyoshou leader dead in then head, causing the said attacked fighter tumbling.

Kan'u then Turned back towards her injured friend, but she was pummeled as soon as she turned her back. The attacker was none other then Kakouen, who was balancing herself on her hands while on she spun around back onto her feet.

Kan'u managed to stop herself from hitting the incoming wall by pressing her hand on the wall. She turned around to glare at her attacker, who in turned returned to her feet and returned the said gaze.

"I will not allow you to harm Sousou-Sama." Kakouen spoke with her normal neutral tone, but both Seito fighter could tell she was holding back all the exhaustion she felt from the earlier conflicts.

Kan'u and Naruto glanced back up to glare back at Kakouen for her interference. But a moment later, a hand Slammed against Kakouen's head and shoved the said fighter down the hall.

Both Seito fighter saw Kakouen rolling off the ground and finally landed face down facing everyone. The raven haired fighter began to raise her head as she gazed in shock at her leader.

"I don't need you…" Sousou spoke to his loyal subordinate in his demonic tone. "To ruin my kill."

Everyone listened in and automatically concluded that Sousou's own dragon was started, or not already took over the present day leader.

Sousou let loose a wild, animalistic grin before galloping at a great speed and struck Naruto with a single punch. While the movement was not impressive to most people, the end result was Naruto flying straight through a wall that landed him into the next room.

Sousou eagerly followed the path of his current prey, and leaped through the hole. While he was mid air in his jump, a pair of feet struck him directly in his chest, and carried the possessed fighter flying further in to a wall.

The blond Seito fighter rolled forward back on to his feet and was no sooner tackled by a rough and ready in the back and crashed against another wall. The said barrier did not collapse like the previous, the only indication of damage shown was a spider-web like crack.

Sousou pulled his right arm back as veins started to engorge through out the said appendage. As the vein stopped just at the finger tips, a red, fire ball started to ignite then grow into a solid, red and orange light that emitted a high amount of heat.

Naruto reacted by swing his right arm up to redirect the attack towards the ceiling, causing the said area to collapse due to the impact of the attack, and debris falling on top of both Naruto and Sousou, a majority on Sousou.

Naruto used this momentary pause The demonized Kyoshou leader had unintended given him and thrashed his right arm towards the leader's head, following a tornado kick to the abdominals.

Sousou was sent falling towards the floor, but in a sudden twist of motion, the Kyoshou leader hand landed on the floor and the same fighter flipped himself back onto his feet. Sousou then shot his hands forwards to let loose another sphere of fire towards the enemy.

Naruto quick maneuvered what energy he could muster into his own hand to create a white coat and swung it to collide with the condense fireball, and redirect it towards the ceiling above the possessed Sousou. The tiles and falling debris collapsed on top of the Kyoshou leader, but Sousou raised his hand again to deliver another circle of inferno to incinerate the incoming debris.

Naruto hastily dashed forward to tackle Sousou onto the ground. Once Sousou successfully collapsed, Naruto once again placed his hand one top of the crown of Sousou's forehead and began to recklessly injecting some of his energy.

'To hell with being careful!' Naruto thought 'I'll have to exhaust that dragon enough to give Sousou control Fa…' The train of thought the blond fighter produced was quickly derailed by a heated punch in the gut with the demonized Sousou's left hand, and the said attack carried the blonde through the air and launched him into a wall.

Naruto felt himself colliding once again into a wall and rebound on to the floor. The bearer of the Magatama of Hiryuu then straighten himself out long enough to glance to see Sousou regaining his footing, turned swiftly towards the current challenger, and raised his hand to prepare another attack.

In a mere second, Kan'u ran towards Sousou while pulling back her fist back, either intending to punch the Kyoshou leader in the face, or intercept his hand. Both attempt didn't come to reality as Sousou quickly intercepted the incoming attack with his unused hand, used the same hand to grasp Kan'u's neck, and aimed his fireball towards the second in command of Seito.

Kan'u only gazed at the incoming attack and tried desperately to disarm the demonized Sousou from herself, but the leader kept a firm grip on her neck tot eh point of being strangled.

In a yellow flash, Kan'u saw Sousou arm that held her being shoved out of the direction of the fireball to the sidelines.

Kan'u regained her barring and to her horror, Naruto stood in front of Sousou, with the said reddish-brown haired fighter hand punctured through right side of his chest.

Naruto eye's widened as he felt the numbing pain spread throughout his body in shock. After the pain started to register in the blonds mind, he started to cough up blood, that soaked into his mask, and flooded his mouth.

"Naruto!" Kan'u shouted out as soon as she soon as she removed the shock from her system and saw the blood that stained the mask of the Blond fighter, and the hand that belong to the demonic Leader of Kyoshou.

Naruto didn't register the cries as he gritted his teeth to block out the intense pain he currently felt from his chest. His mouth kept oozing out small streams of blood while a dark red puddle formed between Sousou and himself.

"It seems I caught you." Sousou spoke with devilish glee that matched his blooded grin. "Your power is quite something young one Dragon user…" the Devil of all Fighter's spoke "Such power, even now surpasses me…" Sousou began to raise his right hand over top Naruto's head "Which is very unacceptable."

Kan'u watched stunned as she witnessed Sousou free hand gathering energy that began to form into his signature fire ball that now towered over Naruto.

"This is gonna hurt." Sousou spoke to his captive.

"Heh…" The blond let out a light chuckle "You bet your Ass."

While ignoring the pain that throbbed throughout the blondes body. He moved his left arm to collide with his enemy's right, sending the charging hand upward for the attack to collide with the ceiling.

As the blonde intercepted the attack, Naruto moved his right hand to the side as he moved the palm to face upwards. Naruto began to gather in as much energy as he could shove into his right hand, focusing the energy in a unintentional control it in an old fashion.

Kan'u and Sousou took a sharp glance at the palm of the blond Seito fighter's hand to see a transparent blue swirl erupting before converging into a hand sized blue sphere. Getting a closer look, both fighter saw the blue, hurricane-like sphere transforming into more of a tornado before shifting back into a forceful sphere.

Naruto then moved the hand that held the sphere towards the Devil of all Fighters and yelled "RASENGAN!" As the attack flushed into the Kyoshou leader's abdominals.

One second passed and Sousou remained rooted to his spot, another second passed and the said fighter was sent flying.

"AAAHHHH!" Sousou cried in pain, shock, and disbelief, all in the same statement.

The Kyoshou leader continue to travel to the end of the hall, until he crashed into the opposing wall.

Dust and debris stirred for a few long moment until it settled, revealing a huge whole in the wall, that sooner revealed a unconscious Sousou with the upper portion of his back leaning against the wall, while his front was cover by chucks of plaster, dust and most of his shirt was gone, leaving a vortex pattern of rip to both the shirt and mild cuts. The area where all the cuts met was deeper the others, but only by a half an inch, nothing fetal. Finally they noticed that Sousou's eye were not his red with a silted pupil, but dark brown with a normal circular pupil.

Naruto was still standing with the one hand forward and his head bent forward. Not a second later the blond collapsed on his knees while his left hand slammed against the ground and the other hand covered up the hole in his chest.

"Naruto!" Kan'u cried out as she used what strength she could gather into her legs and ran over to her friend's side.

Kan'u knelt down further to examine the latest and most serious wound Naruto had received, only to be shock as she saw it was growing smaller.

'What's going On?' Kan'u thought as she continue to stare at the wound that completely sealed up.

(Five Minutes Ago)

Kakouton, Kyochou, Chouryou, and Shiba had been running franticly throughout the halls of their school to find Sousou, with little success.

"Where the hell did he run off to now?" Chouryou asked the air with frustration.

"More then likely…" Shiba spoke up to her right hand man, that was pushing her in her wheelchair "To the source of that power."

"That obvious…" Chouryou groaned "But…"

"Sousou…!" Kakouton cried out in the hall "Buddy! Come out, come out, where ever you are!"

"Does that guy have to shout that out every minute?" The blond ebony fighter spoke with clear annoyance in his voice.

"It can't be helped." Shiba spoke unmoved by the outburst.

Everyone continued to scout around for any sign of their runaway leader.

'Don't worry buddy…' Kakouton thought as he anxiously kept wandering his senses to find his friend 'I've already lost one friend, I don't plan on losing another one.'

As Kakouton continued to move forward, Kyochou was glancing around for any traces of her friend as well. 'Sousou-Kun…' She thought.

A loud crack was then heard as everyone turned around to see a cloud of dust flying out of one side of the hallway.

"God Dammit…" Chouryou agitated spoke "Who did the guy kill now?"

Everyone rush to the scene, expecting to find some random guy on the ground and look through the wrecked pasture to see A blood thirsty Sousou.

When they finally arrived to a clear view of the wreckage, they was it was None other then Sousou laying on the ground, heavily injured, but not in fatal condition.

"Sousou!" Kakouton cried as he saw his friend down, forgetting the fact that his friend was demonized a few moments ago.

"Buddy, Can you hear Me?" Kakouton asked, naturally panic, "Sousou, Stay Awake Pal…!"

"Ton…" A weak, unheard whisper escape Sousou's lips, but was undetected by his ecstatic friend.

"Stay awake Pal!" Kakouton continued to Scream "Don't Go into the Light!"

"Ton…" Another whisper was spoke out of the Kyoshou Leader's mouth. While louder then his previous call, it still remained unknown to the eye patch wearing fighter.

Kakouton continued to yell "Do You Hear Me? Do not go into the…"

"Ton…!" Sousou finally yelled out "Your standing on my foot." The Kyoshou leader finally managed to speak out.

Kakouton gave a black, gaze towards his friend, then looked down towards his own feet to see that his friend accession was clearly justified.

"Oops." Kakouton spoke sheepish as he took a step away from his friend. "Sorry Pal."

"Ouch." was all the Sousou said before instantly shutting his eyes as his head sank lower.

"Sousou!" Kakouton yelled as he say his friend fall into a exhaust slumber, fearing that it was more like a death induced sleep.

When Sousou didn't respond, Kakouton's mind clashed with images of Kakuka laying on a bed with a white blanket covering his whole body, and then vision of Sousou's own body took place as well.

Shock soon fell to Rage as he quickly spun around to gaze through the hole to see two fighter, both kneeling down with the blond looking in poor shape.

"You Bastards!" Kakouton spoke with an edgy, ascending into fury, quite voice. "You Killed SOUSOU! I KILL YOU!" His voice charged up to full blown Rage. The Eye patch wearing fighter then charged with full intention of killing the two Seito Fighter.

Kan'u looked in the direction of the voice and saw A Kyoshou fighter running at the pair with rage filling his eye.

After the fighter pulled back his fist. Kan'u already stood between Naruto and the raging Kyoshou, swinging her leg to intercept the incoming punch.

Kakouton backed down a step before returning the kick with his own kick.

Kan'u was knocked off balance momentarily, but she regained it by landing on her hands and used her other leg to attack Kakouton straight in the face.

Kakouton tumbled over and slammed against the wall.

Kan'u spun back onto her feet and turned back To Naruto "Come on…" Kan'u looped her hand around and under Naruto's arm and pulled him to his feet "We have to get out of here."

Naruto nodded as he tried and succeeded in stabilizing his legs, but was still dependent of Kan'u for support. Both tried to move to the only exit, but were quickly intercepted by Kakouton charging in and Screaming his lung out of all the rage he held.

Both Seito fighter turned around, but before Kan'u could react, Naruto pushed Kan'u to the Side and took Kakouton's tackle head on.

After Naruto fell to his back, his mind began to register the pain of the fall and a series of punches that struck his face.

"YOU MOTHERFUCKING BASTARD!" The eye patched wearing fighter shouted "YOU MOTHERFUCKING…!" Kakouton was then kicked square in the chest by Kan'u.

The raven haired fighter quickly gathered Naruto up to his feet and both had finally made it though the window that lead towards the fire escape.

"You first." Naruto spoke to his friend as he opened the window and motioned the second in command of Seito.

Kan'u glared over her shoulder and spoke "Naruto…"

"No augments, Go now!" Naruto spoke more firmly, which worked as Kan'u climbed out onto the deck, but not before giving Naruto a look of frustration and concern.

Naruto was the next to climb out of the window, moved towards a lever and pulled it, causing the ladder to shift downwards.

"Down you go." Naruto order Kan'u, who in turn hesitantly climbed down the steps until she hit the ground.

Kan'u then tilted her head up to her blond friend and to her confusing, Naruto moved his hands to the railing that held the ladder in place. The blonds' hands began to emit a white aura, and the support system for the ladder collapsed.

Kan'u moved out of the way to avoid the iron ladder from falling on her and then looked back up to Naruto.

"What are you doing?" Kan'u spoke, automatically demanded an answer.

"Kyoshou after me." Naruto spoke bluntly. "Their be focusing their attention on me, and while that happens, well you should get the idea." Naruto turned his back towards Kan'u as he entered the window.

"Naruto…!" Kan'u cried out "What happen to the Plan we agreed on?" she screamed with fury at the betrayal.

Naruto didn't turn himself around to speak with his friend "This was the plan." And slipped through the window.

"Naruto!" Kan'u cried as she turned around and headed around the corned, already intending to head towards the front of the school and make her way up to regroup with her stubborn blond comrade.

Naruto had just regained his composer in time to see Kakouton charging at him with his left fist pulled back.

Naruto brought both of his arms up to cover his right side against the incoming punch. He then pushed his body against the enraged fighter, then looped himself around Kakouton, grabbing one of his arms with one hand, then used his free hand to grab the other hand, pinning both arms behind the fighter.

Kakouton struggled against the bond, but he managed to break free by kicking himself off the wall and ramming Naruto's back into the opposing wall.

Naruto's gripped loosened enough for Kakouton to rip his arms out and spin around to deliver a swift punch straight across the chin, knocking the blonde fighter down onto the ground.

Naruto redirected his eyes in time to see another fist colliding with his face. Another fist Slammed against Naruto's face, followed by another.

"You…Stupid…Fucking…Bas…" Kakouton kept pounding the fighter into hamburgers, until a hand gripped his shoulder and threw him back towards the wall, and off of Naruto.

Kakouton looked up to see Chouryou looking over him with a scolding glare. "That's enough pal…" Chouryou began to speak "Just for the record, Sousou just in Lala land, not in hell." The blonde spoke trying to rationalize the situation to Kakouton.

Kakouton was still gritting his teeth, but Chouryou noted that the beanie hat wearing fighter wasn't glaring at him. Instead, The blond, Ebony Fighter followed Kakouton's gaze to, his absolute shock, Naruto had his back turned to the duo, and on One knee and foot, but that soon changed as his used his one hand on his knee and raised himself up to being on two feet.

The Blond Seito then turned back towards the two Kysoshou fighter with a monotone eyesight.

(Outside of The Kyoshou's Building)

Kan'u had just turned the corner of the building, running vigorously to the entrance. Before the entrance came within the Seito's field of Vision, Kan'u saw two of Kyoshou's guards running at her.

Kan'u naturally reacted by delivering a quick kick to the duo guards with little effort, but as she landed her foot, Kan'u began to wobble slightly enough to notice.

'I must be getting tired.' Kan'u concluded as she once again ran towards the entrance 'I'll just have to grab Naruto and get out.' she thought with thoughtless hope.

Out of the corner of Kan'u eye, she saw on the second story the very blond fighter she was seeking.

(Inside of The Kyoshou School)

"Don't think a few punches are going to take me Down." Naruto spoke arrogantly as he whipped the blood off of his mask.

Kakouton flew off of from his sitting position and lunged at the Seito.

Naruto Easily Caught Kakouton by the wrist of his arms and began to struggle to keep Kakouton in place.

Both fighter twist and turned and spun each other around the hallway to knock the opposing fighter off balance.

Naruto took note of His depleting strength and then glanced backwards to sense several people approaching his direction. The blonde smirked as he thought 'So far so goo…' Naruto hacked as he felt a sharp stab in his back that affected his already server core. At that point the blacked out.

Kakouton saw Naruto's eyes roll to the back of his head and then collapsed with blood spewing from his mask.

The eye patched wearing fighter's self control finally began to kick in as he saw his opponent collapsed onto the ground. Kakouto took a look back up to see Chouryou with his index and middle finger pointing outward. It didn't take a anyone particularly smart to figure out that The Ebony Blonde fighter had struck the Blond Seito's Tanden.

"That ought to put him out for a bit." Chouryou spoke to the wind.

(Outside of Kyoshou Academy Building)

"Naruto!" Kan'u cried as she witnessed her friend finally fall to a disaster. The scene only doubled her resolve to her rescue mission.

Kan'u caught sight of the door and ran faster to her only chance towards an entrance.

Naruto grabbed the door handle and a sudden jolt in her memory over took her senses.

(Flashback)

Naruto was on a knee and foot with his Houjoufu embezzled in a tree and Tenraizamaru tangled in a bush.

Kan'u stood a few feet away from the blond with immense pride radiant off of her body as she looked down at her sparring partner.

'I'll admit…' Kan'u thought as she stared down towards her new recruit 'His stamina is unbelievable, but his motor skill are wild and impatient. Not exactly a grand combo for a warrior.'

"I can hardly see how you can see yourself as being a strong Warrior Uzumaki-San." Kan'u spoke to the boy "You're rash with your movements, you're headstrong on the fact that you feel nothing will go wrong."

Naruto only glared up at his teacher. "Your saying I'm weak?" The blond spoke with frustration.

Kan'u nodded her head "Physical, yes. Your only reliable resource is the fact that you can run circles around your enemy, but you fighting qualities stop there. You rash, charging head first without even a second thought."

"I'm not weak!" Naruto shouted out as he charged at the Raven haired fighter with wild fist launching forward.

Kan'u easily caught a single fist with one hand and spun her foe around.

"That all that makes up your resolve…" Kan'u stated with scorn in her voice "An instinct to prove yourself that you stand above all else." She threw the fighter on to the ground harshly. "You don't even realize what your suppose to be fighting for."

Kan'u quickly turned around and began to leave, but not before she said "Don't even think of picking up those weapons, until you know how to use them." with that The supreme General left the area.

A couple of hours later, Kan'u was traveling along the patio and began to hear words being spoken.

"Naruto…" Kan'u instantly recognized the voice as being none other the Leader of Seito. "What were you like before you came to Seito?"

Kan'u heard Naruto only chuckle, and then Kan'u peered over the corner to see a slightly bandaged Naruto, sitting on the patio with Ryuubi sitting right next to her.

"Well to put it short, it was rough, and I was a brat." He explained with some amusement.

"Why would you say that?" Ryuubi asked bewildered by the answer, as Kan'u was.

"I use to pull dozens of pranks on where I use to live, just to feel like the star of the town." Naruto began to further elaborate.

Ryuubi then said "Your not going to do any of that stuff to us, Are you?" The Seito leader voice portrayed,, Worry, and fear.

"Naruto wave his hand, and said "Nah, I'm kicking the habit. That sort of thing is just like the rest of my past, nothing special."

"You mean there wasn't anything good that happened?" Ryuubi asked, a bit saddened at the statement.

Naruto detected the sadness and spoke "Well, there was this one time…" Naruto began to tell his tale "I met someone one special. Someone that told me what it meant to be strong."

"To be strong?" Ryuubi repeated with interest, unknown to both fighters, Kan'u also heard this with high exception.

"She told me that when one fights for those precious to him or her, They become as strong as they need to become." Naruto spoke of the morals that shaped his own resolve.

Ryuubi seemed somewhat disturbed by the phrase for some reason and Naruto was quick to notice. " Something wrong?" The blond as the brunette.

"I hate fighting." Ryuubi spoke with an uncomfortable edge. "When everyone fights, they only get hurt, and soon everyone cries. I don't want that."

Naruto nodded in understanding. 'She's right. War only ends in misery and sadness, what she wants is a world where everyone is happy.'

A pause of silence was brokered when the newly recruited fighter speaking "It's not a good thing to fight all the time, but sometimes you must, to protect those you love. I guess that what you think would justify it enough."

"But…" Ryuubi still protest "Fighting leads to people getting hurt, and sometimes…" The Seito leader stopped her rant in hesitation and fear "…people dieing. I don't want that."

Naruto once again nodded his head in understanding. "Ryuubi…" Naruto spoke to his leader "I can't promise not to fight at all, but I can promise only to fight for my friends."

"But…" Ryuubi spoke, still protesting the very idea of fighting.

"I know…" Naruto intercepted "You don't want anyone to get hurt, But I'm in the same boat and I'm more then willing to help out anyway I can."

"Why?" Ryuubi asked, as bewildered as the hidden Kan'u Unchou.

Naruto then flew down onto his back as he spoke "It's simple, You guys took me in and Put up with me longer then anyone had in my life. I'm gonna repaying you guy when ever, and however I can." Naruto then let loose a small chuckle in his throat "If I can even pay you guys back."

Ryuubi starred at her new friend bewilder, the Seito leader's mind trying to piece together the meaning of the blonds words.

Kan'u on the other hand was even more bewildered then Ryuubi, and she figured the message out the most. Why would Naruto just be so grateful for a few strangers just trying to repay their own favor. That fact shocked her as much as learning as how wrong she was about him earlier.

(Flashback End)

Kan'u finally realized the meaning of the last Words Naruto spoke. 'This was the plan…' The Raven haired fighter thought 'Is this how he plans to repay his debt to Seito, getting himself killed!' the conclusion only doubled Kan'u resolve to save her friend, but suddenly another memory aroused that once again stopped her.

(Flashback)

Naruto was leaving his room, dressed in his work cloths, and Kan'u was just down the hallway, leaning against the wall.

"Need something?" The blond asked his superior.

Kan'u didn't turn to her new recruit, but she did say "I heard you speak to Ryuubi earlier."

Naruto shrugged his shoulder "I don't see what the problem is…" Naruto spoke "I didn't say anything offensive."

"No you didn't..." Kan'u replied "But you did say something that I owe an apologize."

"That is?" Naruto asked with full curiosity.

Kan'u then turned to face her blond friend dead on as she spoke "I previously assumed that you were just some guy who was driving on a reckless resolve to prove you were a somebody, just trying to be in the spotlight."

Naruto respectfully stayed silent throughout his superior's speech.

"You actually proved me wrong, in a few ways..." Kan'u added "But the most important part."

"Heh." Naruto chuckled lightly "It's not that big of a deal. You guys took me in, and I'm just going to do what ever it takes to pay you guys back." Naruto began to walk to work.

"By that…" Kan'u then spoke, stopping the blond in his track "Do you mean that you intend to stay at Seito until you fulfill you debt." The Raven haired fighter hid it well, but in her voice, there was hints of betrayal and uncertainty, but she knew that depending on his next choice of words, Naruto place in Seito would be defined.

"I owe you guys my life." Naruto spoke shocking The Great General of Seito "With that Life I swear to protect Ryuubi and all those who live for her."

(Flashback End)

That one statement finally helped piece together the action that Naruto had taken.

Kan'u thoughts were put on saddened hold as she saw several figures move towards the door. Kan'u jumped back to prevent the door from hitting her and locked her guard to face the incoming fighters.

"Someone grab her before she escapes!" One of the fighter ordered hastily.

The fighter charged at Kan'u, but the general managed to kick two of them to the side, but then noticed a slight pinch of pain in her body. In that moment, A fighter jumped on top of Kan'u, but the Seito fighter used what leg strength she had to lift the fighter off and toss him towards another incoming fighter. Once again she felt a pinch of pain.

'I can't keep this up.' Kan'u bitterly remarked as more fighters came out. Kan'u launched another kick to a nearby fighter and causing the victim to topple over the others.

Kan'u then made the options clear in her mind. Either stay and try to rescue Naruto and more the likely fail, or run back to Seito with The blonde's scarifies not being in vain.

Kan'u made her decision and ran for her base, but not before thinking 'Stay alive Naruto, and I will be back for you.' a lone tear escaped the eyes of the great general, who continued to run.

(Kyoshou Academy)

Chouryou stood over Naruto's body, gazing at the fellow blond until he heard foot steps. Turning to see none other then Kaku walking towards him with an unpleasant look on her face.

"Why didn't you kill him?" Kaku spoke with irritation in her question. "He nearly killed Sousou and now because of him, Kan'u Unchou has escape! He'll only bring more problems if we let him live."

"Sousou-Sama wanted him alive." Chouryou clarified his actions "Until the boss gives us words, This guy stays awake."

Kaku looked even more infuriated "That highly irresponsible!" Kaku shouted "This Fighter not only fought Sousou, but even nearly killed him!"

"Maybe that's why Sousou-Sama want's this guy?" Chouryou spoke before he turned to see two more fighter coming towards the stagiest duo.

"Lock this guy in the basement…" Chouryou ordered "Properly this time." He added with stress.

The two fighter's nodded and picked the blonde up by his arms, dragging him to the prison.

Chouryou left without another word, but Kaku thought 'This is foolish.' before following the ebony.

(Seito Private School)

The remaining commanders of Seito all gathered in the main room during the evening hours to discuss their current status after the failed invasion.

"Most of the students are still in the hospital." Kouchuu was reading off the results of the causalities. "We have just enough to defend the school's parameter, and then a few extra students."

Chou'un, Chouhi, Suikyo, and Koumei could only grimace at those stats. The number was too lower to produce a good size force in order to combat Kyoshou Academy.

"Our heaviest loss was Kan'u Unchou and Naruto Uzumaki being captured by Kyoshou." Koumei spoke up. "More then likely, Kyoshou will use them as either an information resource, or worst case scenario, their will either be killed, or used as Soldiers against us and any remaining opposes."

"With Seito and Nanyou being the primary threats to Kyoshou…" Koumei spoke up "It would make more sense to at least to try and persuade them to join Kyoshou's ranks, with threatening Seito's well being." the girl Seito youngest member concluded the possible action of the enemy.

"I highly doubt either of them would agree to such a deal." Chou'un spoke up, gaining the groups attention.

"You really sure about that?" Suikyo challenged Chou'un's theory.

Chou'un turned to the old master "You doubt such a claim?" she spoke back.

Suikyo only spoke "While one would only see the degree of loyalty that those two have towards Seito, one would think that Naruto and Kan'u would commit seppuku before every considering an offer that Kyoshou would make." the man then took a shot of his Sake from his jug before continuing "But those feeling can be used against them should the enemy play their hand right. They would just make a shaky promise to ensure the safety of Seito and it's people."

Everyone stood silent in the possible prediction the old master fore told. "Both Kan'u and Naruto care for the well being of Seito. Especially Naruto, Should Kyoshou find a means to use Naruto against us, it would mean that we would have no choice but to end his life."

All present were stunned at this. Basically, Suikyo was saying that Naruto may actually turn traitor, and if such a case were to arrive, well, no one, especially Chou'un wanted to think about the results.

"So I'm asking this Chou'un…" Suikyo spoke directly to the swordmisstress "Can you bring yourself to end the life of those you care for the greater good?"

While Chou'un wouldn't show it, Suikyo could tell that the girl was tensing up at the idea. "When I cross that bridge, I'll decide."

"Even if it means ending Naruto's life? Suikyo asked.

Before Chou'un could answer another voice shouted from behind the screen door. "YOU CAN'T!" Everyone turned to see Ryuubi opening the door, showing fear, and despair on her face. "Naruto doesn't deserver to Die!"

"I'm not saying that he will die Ryuubi." Suikyo spoke to the girl, trying to calm her down. "What I'm saying if the worst happens, Naruto may ally himself to Kyoshou to protect Seito from harm."

"He would never…" Ryuubi protested, but was silent's with Chou'un speaking "Ryuubi, wither Naruto will or will not join Kyoshou is the problem, Suikyo was just providing the possibility.

"But…" Ryuubi spoke "Naruto cares about us!"

Chou'un and the other stayed silent at that. It was true that they did feel ashamed at even posing the possibility of Naruto's betrayal, no excuses, other then the safety of their school.

"Naruto wouldn't even think of betraying us, and you think that…" Ryuubi rants were quite by a set of foot steps approaching the room, and turned to see, Ryofu, Akaoni and Chinkyuu appearing on the patio.

"He won't turn on us." Akaoni spoke up to the group "If I know anything about that guy, is that he's no turn coat." The silver haired fighter spoke proudly, and doubtless.

Everyone smiled at that note, especially Ryuubi and Chou'un.

"I'm glad to see everything's working out for the better." A new voice picked up, and everyone turned to see none other then Ouin Shishi walking towards the group.

While everyone was surprised by the presence of the fighter, Akaoni was more infuriated by the sight of the man.

"Ouin!" Akaoni growled at the man, who in turn just casually waved "Nice to see you too Aka-Chan!"

No sooner had the words left the Nanyou fighter's mouth, Akaoni ran at him with infuriated speed.

Ouin calmly side stepped the assault and witnessed with mild surprise that his acquaintance punch left a humongous crack in the ground with just his right hand.

Akaoni followed suit by thrusting his left hand up to grab Ouin by the throat and shoved him against the tree.

The Silver haired powerhouse gazed down at his captive with heated hatred and he brought his free hand upward to crash it down on Ouin.

"Akaoni Stop!" Akaoni turned to see Ryofu stepping forward, merely two feet away from the two in a one sided Dog fight.

"I know your mad, but this isn't the time." Ryofu spoke, trying to reason with her friend "There be another time, but not now."

Akaoni let out a sigh of frustration before releasing Ouin. The silver haired fighter then returned to gazing at the previous fighter "Next time, you won't be so lucky." Akaoni spoke before returning back to his friend's

"Dully noted." Ouin chuckled as he got up. The Nanyou fighter walked towards the other and said "I'm just helping someone negotiate our alliance here safely."

Another feminine figure appeared that wore the standard Nanyou uniform, had long raven haired, and bandages that covered her arms, legs, and head, save the eyes, Mouth and nose.

"Roshuku Shikei." Koumei greeted the newcomer as everyone entered the room.

Roshuku nodded and said "Thank you for seeing me on such short notice."

"Nothing to worry about." Chouhi spoke up "So what's up, I didn't think you would come her for a pleasant conversation."

The bandage wearing fighter nodded "Yes, Nanyou had reseved a warning from Kyoshou a couple of Days ago. In the warning they included the relinquish of our Hyakuhekitou, and informed us of the capture of Kan'u Unchou and Naruto Uzumaki."

Everyone grimaced at Kyoshou's demand. To everyone's theory, Sousou must be interested in collecting the Hyakuhekitou for the very purpose to add them to the Gyokuji.

Legend has it that the Hyakuhekitou, the Gyokuji and the Magatama of all fighter all represented ancient treasures of the gods, The Kusanagi-no-Tsurugi (Japanese:Grass Cutting Sword), Yata no Kagami (Japanese:Eight Hand Mirror), and the Yasakani no Magatama. It's believed that when all three are brought together, A great and monstrous power would be unleashed.

"He has given us time to think about the offer, but at maximal, a week." Roshuku explained "It's in Nanyou's best interest to formulate a plan to prevent Kyoshou from gathering the treasures."

"Well…" Koumei began to speak up "Judging from fact, we know for certain that Kyoshou doesn't posses three of the five Hyakuhekitou, as one is in possession of Nanyou and the other two is in Seito's hand as bother were recovered by Naruto and Kan'u."

"So that mean Kyoshou either has at least one." Kouchuu put in his two cents "That would be the most likely possibility, if they don't have the remaining two."

"That option will be kept opened, but for now we'll assume that they posses one of the Hyakuhekitou." Koumei spoke up.

Roshuku then said "I would think that you would want to start a search for the remaining Hyakuhekitou."

"That would only be a waste of time." Koumei spoke "We need to think of a way to lure Kyoshou into a better trap."

Before any words could be speak, they all began to hear foot steps approaching the room. As far as anyone knew, they weren't expecting anymore visitors, and more were ready for any sort of attack.

A shadow then loomed behind the door and the entrance opened. To everyone's surprise, the one who stood was none other then…

"Kan'u…!" Everyone spoke in shock as the said fighter did not say a word, but suddenly collapsed forward.

"Kan-San!" Ryuubi cried as she scrambled to her exhausted friend.

Kouchuu leaped forward and said "Lets get her to the nurses station, she hurt badly." he ordered as he grabbed the supposable captured general. And began to move her to the designated room with a good majority of the fighter presence following.

All, but Koumei, Roshuku, Ouin and Suikyo left.

"Well that was unexpected." Ouin spoke as he light a cigarette, "But I think we just opened a whole new playing field for ourselves.

The other could only nodded their heads in agreement.
