Chapter 10: Shinigami…we can see them…
A figure was standing on the roof of a fairly large house. Said figure had blond hair and two zanpakuto strapped to his waist. Uzumaki Naruto stood watching the sky in peace and quiet contemplating on life as it is. It was strange to think of such a thing but the blond found it relaxing.
Naruto looked around the streets to see if his father was anywhere near the house, he hadn't seen him since morning when they parted ways for their divisions. He had quite the surprise for his father. Naruto smirked as he imagined the face his father would make when he sees Haku.
The blonde boy jumped down from the roof and walked inside, his mother had come earlier today to prepare a special meal in honor of the new guest. Kushina was very happy to find out that her son had found a girl to love, she was happy that after all those years when he was alone and no one loved him he managed in the end to find a girl. In her opinion Haku looked like a very clever person with a nice attitude, not to mention that she was very cute and together with Naruto they made the perfect couple. Kushina giggled as she imagined how her grandchildren would look like.
"Why are you laughing kaa-san?" asked Naruto that just entered the kitchen
Kushina turned to look at him and smiled. "Oh nothing, you will learn a wee bit later son."
The boy raised an eyebrow and shrugged; he walked out of the kitchen and walked in the living room. He jumped on the couch and closed his eyes waiting for his father to get home or for Haku to come from her room.
The blonde boy heard someone walking towards him; he opened his eyes and saw Haku standing in front of him.
"Sleep well?" he asked smiling
The girl nodded and sat down next to him. "Don't know why but I felt really tired."
"It happened to me too." answered Naruto
"So when will I meet your father?" she asked curious
Naruto shrugged. "I don't know, he is taking a long time to get home."
Haku nodded and leaned her head of his shoulder. She closed her eyes and sat there next to him. The blond boy wrapped his arm around Haku and held her tight near him. He kissed her on the cheek and closed his eyes putting his head on her head.
They stood there for about half an hour, their little moment was broken when Kushina called them to eat. The two sat up and walked in the kitchen, Haku took a seat next to Naruto and Kushina was seated in front of her son at the table.
"So are we going to eat without dad?" asked Naruto
His mother nodded. "He will eat alone if he is this late."
The blond boy nodded and started eating. While he was eating Kushina and Haku were chatting amongst themselves. Naruto's mother asked the girl when she had met the boy, what her opinions about Naruto were, and stuff like that. Naruto sometimes paid attention while sometimes not.
As they were eating, well at least Naruto was, another person walked in the kitchen. Haku looked at the new comer and saw that the man looked like a replica of Naruto. He was taller, his hair was longer and he didn't have whisker marks on his cheeks, one thing was sure he wore the same goofy grin that Naruto always wore.
"Hey, sorry I'm late but Yamamoto-sama wanted to talk to me." he excused himself for his tardiness
"At least a black cat didn't cross your path like how Kakashi-sensei always said." responded Naruto eating.
The man pouted. "I will have you know I am not like Kakashi and I did not teach him to be tardy."
"Who said you did?" asked Naruto curious
The man pointed at Naruto and opened his mouth to reply; he blinked and closed his mouth. He had nothing to reply to the blond boy. He shook his head and looked at Kushina and smiled, the woman smiled back at him and looked at Haku. The man looked puzzled for a second, he looked in the direction Kushina was looking and his eyes rested on Haku.
Minato studied the girl sitting next to Naruto with curiosity; the girl was smiling kindly at him. Who was she? he wondered. Naruto silently chuckled, he looked at his father and then at Haku, he put his arm around the girls shoulder and pulled her close to him. He gave her a peck on the cheek making the girl giggle.
Minato's eyes almost popped out and his mouth was wide open at what he saw, he flash stepped near his wife and put his hand on her shoulder. He looked at Naruto and Haku.
"We will be right back." he said as he disappeared with Kushina from the table.
Naruto started chuckling and then started laughing at his father's expression. Haku understood why the blond was laughing and joined him in his laughter.
In their room Kushina was sitting on the bed grinning and Minato was moving around the room pondering. He stopped moving and looked at his wife.
"Alright what just happened?" he asked
"Oh don't you know?" she asked playfully
Minato blinked. "Well…no…since when did Naruto started dating?" he asked "Better yet since when did you know and I didn't?" he asked again
Kushina was smiling at him and humming a song. "Not telling." she said
The man face faulted. "Oh come on, tell me this is golden, our son is dating a girl!" he shouted with stars in his eyes
Kushina put her finger on her lips. "I don't know, he just popped with her at dinner." she responded
Minato stopped dead in his tracks. "Wait you mean you just met her?" he asked
Kushina nodded happily. "And she will be sleeping here…"
"What do you mean sleeping here?" he asked curious
"Well for starts our house is big since we are the last of the clan, most died during Hollow wars of the Quincy Wars right?" she asked
Minato nodded. "And also it's because Naruto invited her, she is his girlfriend after all."
Minato's mouth fell open. "But what about her parents?" he asked
The woman shook her head. "She doesn't have, she died this morning, he mother died when she was eight or so killed by her father because of her bloodline."
Minato nodded. "Ok…"
"Lets go down and eat." she said standing up
"Wait, you need to tell me more about her." whined the Yondaime
Kushina smiled. "Tomorrow." she said as she stepped out of the room
Minato frowned and followed his wife. While they were eating he always glanced between his son and his girlfriend, he like Kushina, was happy that Naruto found someone to love and love him back. Yes, life would prove interesting now.
---
Years went by after that night; Haku had started the academy next day and with the help provided by Kushina she had bought all the things she needed in the academy, she still saw Naruto everyday, at nights at least when the blond boy would return from his division. Unlike other shinigami Naruto didn't want to sleep in the division's quarters, he wanted to sleep home near his family.
Naruto was quite happy to live home and the fact that he could see Haku every night was another reason he always wanted to come back home. Every time he would walk through the door he would be greeted by Haku, she was the first person he would meet and it always brought a smile on his face.
The blond boy started dedicating some of his time on helping Haku train and study for the academy. Like Sajin had started teaching him earlier how to fight with a sword he started teaching Haku as well, needless to say she was catching on really quick. He taught Haku kido as well but only the ones that she needed to know for the academy.
On another note, Naruto kept training with Sajin improving his fighting style, he hadn't forgotten about Kenpachi and what he said, he was willing to try and prove to that man that he can hold his ground longer than anyone else.
Naruto was becoming really good friends with Tousen, the blond captain wasn't that bad, and the only thing that irritated Naruto was that the man always said that he wanted to find true justice and the path that spilled lesser blood. In time the captain seemed to stop saying those things, the words Naruto spoke at the grave that day seemed to make him ponder.
In a year Naruto had managed to complete his shunpo, now whenever he would flash step he would leave golden sparkles in the spot he used to stand. And whenever he would reach another spot he would be surrounded by golden sparks that would slowly die away.
Naruto's progress over the years attracted a lot of attention, his captain wanted to place him in the third seat instead of the eleventh were he was at currently but Naruto would decline the offer every time. Another person interested in Naruto was Soifon; she was interested in more then one way.
One thing that made the captain watch the boy closely every time she would spot him was that he understood what pain is. He knew how living in a cruel world was and that made him stronger, another thing was that she wanted another vice-captain, the current one was bad for the image of the second division and he was a complete idiot. It just pissed off the captain every time she would look at him.
Another person interested in the blonde was none other than Aizen Sousuke. He could see potential in the boy, he could see power that could overcome anything if it's turned in the right direction, and he could also see a strong ally that he wanted to make for the next plans. The captain was curious how he could make the blond betray Seireitei and join him when he would leave this place to accomplish him plans.
For three years Naruto trained and trained, he became faster and stronger, he even grew. He was taller and resembled his father in almost every feature; his hair was as long as Minato's, he was well built and he had lost all of his baby fat. Whenever they would walk down the street people would think they are twins, the only difference between the two was that Minato was still taller than Naruto.
In three years Haku had also changed, she was a little smaller than Naruto, reaching up to his chin, like the blond she had lost all of her baby fat and developed a nice body. Her hair stayed the same; she didn't want it to grow too long. But Naruto loved her the same, in his eyes she was still Haku, the girl he loved.
---
Today was a strange day; the blond boy was supposed to go on a mission in the elemental countries, why he had no idea. There were no hollow sightings, but there was something else. That is why he was currently standing in the meeting room, the captains have been called in the meeting room and Yamamoto demanded Naruto to be there as well.
The old man was looking at them; everyone was here, including Naruto. He sighed and closed his eyes; he then opened them and looked at everyone in the room.
"I am sure you are all wondering why I have called you here." he said and everyone nodded silently. "You have been called her because we have an emergency in the ninja world."
"Emergency?" asked one of the captains
Yamamoto nodded. "Yes, you see this Orochimaru is creating a distortion and same goes from this criminal organization called Akatsuki."
"What kind of distortion?" asked the fifth division captain.
"Simply put spirits can be seen in some areas." responded the elderly leader
There were several gasps in the room. "You mean that a living being can see us?"
Yamamoto nodded. "Yes, we must fix this distortion, we are already working on it but we need people to eliminate Orochimaru and these Akatsuki."
"How do the Akatsuki look like?" asked Naruto surprising everyone
Yamamoto looked over some papers. "From the reports they wear black cloaks with red moons on them and have a ring on one of their fingers."
Naruto nodded. "What did they do to create this distortion?" asked the twelfth division captain.
"Orochimaru was with his search for immortality." responded the old man "The Akatsuki are extracting demons, tailed demons."
Naruto looked at the old man. "You mean like Kyuubi was?" he asked
The old man nodded. "They already extracted the one tailed demon and since then the distortion was created." he responded
"And where is his spirit?" asked the third division captain
"He was revived." responded Yamamoto
"He was what?" asked the fourth division captain "I never heard of such a thing."
"Apparently there are ninja's that can revive at the cost of their lives." responded the old man
"Then where is the one that revived the jailor of the demon?" asked the sixth division captain
"She is in Seireitei, but that is of none importance now. I want to send people to eliminate the Akatsuki and Orochimaru before things get out of hand here." said the old man sharply
"Then who will go with who?" asked the ninth division captain.
"We will have like this…" said Yamamoto as he took out a piece of paper and started reading the teams. "Team one is Soifon and Kenpachi, you will deal with Orochimaru." the two captains nodded. "Team two is Byakuya, Sajin and Tousen, you three will patrol the borders between Sand-Sound-Fire countries." the three captains nodded. "Finally we have team three, Naruto and Hitsugaya with…"
"Pardon me Yamamoto-sama." said Byakuya "But why is the boy going and why only they?" he asked
"Naruto knows the elemental countries and he knows more about ninjas, as Naruto, Hitsugaya possess great power and skills, together they can annihilate two Akatsuki members that have been spotted close to Fire country." responded the old man
Naruto looked at the white haired kid; the kid looked back at him. "I'm supposed to team up with this shrimp/newbie?" asked both of them
Suddenly a vein appeared on both their heads and they shouted at the same time. "I'm not a shrimp/newbie!"
"Silence you two." said Yamamoto. "You will also be accompanied by Minato and the Sandaime in this as they have traveled through the elemental countries and they know the areas."
"But why do I have to team up with him?" asked Naruto pointing to the white haired kid "He is smaller than me."
"I'm small 'cause I want to!" shouted Hitsugaya
"Naruto…" said Yamamoto calmly "Hitsugaya is strong, so are you, together you will make an excellent team, besides we do not have time for any chit chat, you two need to go. The last two members of the team are waiting."
Both Naruto and Hitsugaya nodded and ran out of the room.
"Yamamoto-sama, why about the rest?" asked a captain
"We cannot send all, or else the defenses of Seireitei will fall." he responded and the captains nodded.
As Naruto and Hitsugaya were running the blond boy suddenly heard someone calling for him. It was a woman, he recognized the same voice that had called him years ago but this time it wasn't trying to take control over him, it was calling out for him.
"What the hell?" asked Naruto looking around, it seemed like Hitsugaya didn't hear the woman
"Please save her!" called a voice in the boy's head.
"What the?" he asked himself again "Who are you?"
"I am Nibi, the two tailed demon and my container is chased by two Akatsuki, you got to come here, she is no match for them." said the woman
"Where are you?" asked Naruto, he wouldn't leave a jinchuuriki to die, he might be dead now and might not carry Kyuubi but he would not let someone that holds a demon die as long as he is around.
"Follow my voice…" the woman said and Naruto started hearing someone whispering in his head.
The blond boy suddenly turned in another alley that leads to another gateway. The captain stopped dead in his tracks and turned to the blond.
"Where the hell are you going?" he shouted
Naruto yelled back at him. "A jinchuuriki is under attack by the Akatsuki, get my father and the old man and walk through the fifth eastern gateway." Naruto said before flash stepping away.
Hitsugaya blinked before turning back to the direction he was running before and flash stepping away to alert the other two members. He would have run after the blond but he knew that he could handle himself.
As Naruto reached the gateway he gave the guards the pass and they opened the gate for him to walk in the living world. Naruto heard the Nibi telling him to hurry as her container was trapped by the two Akatsuki. The blond boy mentally nodded and ran through the opened gateway.
---
As Naruto reached the living world he looked left and right trying to see where he was. He was somewhere in the mountains from the look of it. He heard the woman again in his head directing him in the direction the jinchuuriki was.
The blonde boy started flash stepping in the said direction. As he was running the voice in his head started fading away, he couldn't hear it clear anymore. He hoped that nothing bad happened.
Naruto stopped in front of a large building of some sort, or at least it used to be, right now it was completely destroyed, it looked like a battle took place, the smell of blood could still be sensed.
The blonde boy's eyes narrowed as he saw a woman on the wall of the building, her hands where above her head and a sword was holding them in place. Her head was down and she wasn't breathing. To make it worse Naruto saw a plant like man preparing to devour the body.
Naruto flash stepped and appeared in front of the plant like man startling him as he didn't sense Naruto. "Who are you?" asked one half of the man
Naruto raised an eyebrow. "I won't tell." he said "But what did you do to her?" he demanded pointing to the corpse of the girl
The dark half of the man chuckled. "Nothing…" it said "It wasn't us that killed her but it will be us that devours her."
The blond narrowed his eyes. "By hell you will, I won't let you."
"And how do you plan on stopping us?" he asked
"Like this." responded Naruto as he moved his open palm towards the man "Hadou 31: Shot of Red fire!" he yelled and a fireball shot from his palm.
The man's eyes widened as he jumped away avoiding the attack, he looked at the blond boy. He didn't do any hand signs, what was he? And to add more to that he made a jutsu he had never seen in his entire life.
"What are you?" he asked
Naruto closed his eyes and when he opened them they were cold and calculated. "Shinigami…" he responded
"Impossible!" shouted the dark side of the man "There is only one Shinigami!"
"Well what do you know, there are more." responded Naruto deadly as he moved his open palm towards the man. "Hadou 33: Blue Fire, Crash down!" he shouted blue energy shot from his palm and raced towards the man destroying everything in its path.
The strange man jumped out of the way barely avoiding the attack; he gritted his teeth as he looked at Naruto. "Just who the hell are you?"
"And why the hell are you so worked up about that dead jinchuuriki?" the dark side asked
Naruto snarled. "My name is Uzumaki Naruto and I am the former jinchuuriki of Kyuubi no Kitsune." he said
The man narrowed his eyes. "It's impossible, you died, and that is what the rumors said."
"Yes I was dead, but I came back from the dead to help my fellow jinchuuriki." responded Naruto "Wasn't it enough that we lived in pain, that our lives were trash?" asked Naruto irritated. "You asses just had to come and kill us!" roared the blonde and he unsheathed his offensive zanpakuto and charged the man.
The man narrowed his eyes as the blond boy was moving at great speed with a strange sword in his hands. The blond boy lowered his zanpakuto to cut the man in half, said man jumped to the side and delivered a sidekick that was blocked by Naruto with his right hand. The man spun up and tried to deliver a kick in the blonds head. The boy let his body drop behind avoiding the attack, the man landed on the blond's right side.
Naruto charged again with his zanpakuto raised ready to cut the man in half. He tried to vertical slash but the man was consumed in the ground. Naruto looked around trying to spot were the man was. He suddenly felt the ground underneath him move; he looked down and saw the ground moving and something trying to come out. He jumped up just in time avoiding the plant like man that seemed to have wanted to devour him.
Naruto glared at the man and formulated a plan; he looked around and smirked at what he saw. He opened his palm and pointed it towards the man. "Hadou 31: Shot of Red fire!" he said and before the fireball could moved out of his palm he suddenly turned his palm to the man's left side. The fireball hit a piece of wire and broke, the man looked curious at what he did; he suddenly looked up and saw the ceiling falling down on him. It seemed like the wire he had cut was holding something that in turn was holding the ceiling.
The blonde boy smirked in success as he saw the ceiling crash on the man. He sheathed his zanpakuto and was about to leave when the man came out of the ground right in front of him. Naruto narrowed his eyes and was about to unsheathe his zanpakuto again when the man disappeared and reappeared in front of him delivering a powerful kick in his jaw.
The blonde boy was sent flying away. The man disappeared in the ground and came out behind Naruto before the boy could hit the ground. The spun in the air and kicked the blond in the back sending him flying away in the position he was before. Naruto hit the ground with a loud 'thud'. He stood up and glared at the man.
He pointed his finger towards the man. "Hadou 4: White Lightning." he said a lighting bolt shot from his finger towards the man hitting him in the chest. The man was sent flying on his back, before he could try and get up Naruto charged him again with his offensive zanpakuto drawn.
The blonde boy jumped up in the air as he was close to the man and lowered his zanpakuto to cleave the man in half. As the zanpakuto hit the man Naruto grinned thinking that he had finished the job. What he didn't expect was the man's body to turn to mud. Naruto turned his head and looked around trying to figure out where the man was now.
The blonde boy took his zanpakuto out of the mud and started moving around slowly and carefully in case the man planted some traps or anything. He looked left and right, up and down and still the man was nowhere. He knew that he was still here, he could feel his presence but he didn't know exactly where he was.
"You know…" came a voice from all around making the blonde turn around constantly trying to figure out where the voice came from.
"It's not nice to mess with the Akatsuki you punk…" the darker side echoed throughout the area. Naruto gritted his teeth knowing he was fighting and has been fighting an Akatsuki all this time.
"Shinigami or not…" said the voice again from everywhere
"You will die and let us feast." the darker side concluded and Naruto felt like he was sinking. He looked down and his eyes narrowed as he saw he was sinking in some strange mud or something like that.
The blond boy started struggling to break free from the trap but it proved useless. He heard someone walking behind him; he turned his head around and saw the Akatsuki member approaching slowly and deadly. The blond boy's eyes narrowed as he saw a kunai drop from the man's sleeve into his hand.
Naruto grabbed his left leg and started pulling trying to break free; he looked behind and saw the man smirk as he was coming closer. Naruto looked around trying to find something to use to break free. He saw a rope that was attached to the wall; the blond boy grabbed the rope and started pulling himself out.
"It is futile." the darker side said. Naruto pulled more and more and he could feel that he was coming out of the mud. The man narrowed his eyes seeing that the blond boy was breaking free. He charged Naruto with the intent to kill him as he was struggling to break free. Before he could reach Naruto had managed to free his left leg, he kicked the man in the stomach and pulled himself out completely.
The man looked at Naruto and growled, he got into position getting ready to attack again when he felt more people approaching. He sneered and melted in the ground knowing that his chances of winning now would be slim to none.
"We will meet again." said the man
"And when we do we will devour you." the darker side said evilly.
Naruto sneered as the man disappeared in the ground. "Coward." he said as he turned to look at the body of the girl. He walked up to the body and took the sword out, the body dropped on Naruto who gently laid it down on the ground.
Naruto heard three people appearing behind him, he turned around and saw two shocked Hokage's and a curious captain.
"What the hell happened here?" asked Minato looking at the body
"More importantly what killed that girl?" asked the Sandaime
"Not what…who…" responded Naruto
The three looked at Naruto. "And who was it?" asked Hitsugaya
"Akatsuki…" responded Naruto gritting his teeth
"So we where too late…" said Minato sadly
"That may be…" responded the captain "But where is her spirit?" he asked curious
"That is right, the blood is still fresh, she must have died in the last two hours or so." added the Sandaime looking around
Naruto shrugged. "I have no idea where the spirit is, there are no tracks of Hollow's here."
"There where no other shinigami in this area." responded Hitsugaya looking at his soul phone "And it seems that there are no Hollow's nearby."
Naruto looked around in the damaged building. "Hey come out!" he yelled "We won't hurt you; we are here to help you!"
The four shinigami waited to see if there was a response or anything like that. But nothing came; it was silence, a deadly silence like in the graveyard. Naruto scratched his head wondering where the spirit could have run.
"I swear we will not hurt you!" yelled Naruto again "We are on your side!"
Again there was no movement or response whatsoever. The blonde boy sighed and flash stepped away trying to find the spirit. He could feel another presence, but it was so weak that it seemed dead or like it was trying to hide.
The Sandaime looked at the body. "So shall we bury the body?" he asked
"Why would we do that?" asked the captain curious
"If the Akatsuki killed her she must have been a jinchuuriki…despite the fact they carried demons they deserve a proper burial." responded Minato
The Sandaime nodded solemnly. "So shall we?" he asked looking at the blond man
Said man nodded and they picked up the body and walked outside to bury it. The captain sat down and waited for Naruto to return.
In another part of the building a blond girl around the age of nineteen had witnessed everything, from when the blond shinigami appeared to the moment he said he was the former container of Kyuubi and then when the Akatsuki member fled and three more shinigami came.
Yugito stayed hidden despite the fact the blond said they will not hurt her. It was hard for her to understand that a shinigami won't hurt her. From what she knew the shinigami devour someone's soul, she didn't know why she thought that but it somehow passed her mind. The fact that she could not call upon her chakra anymore and that Nibi was gone didn't help at all.
She looked around the corner and saw the blond boy there with his back at her, she studied the blond carefully, and he looked familiar to her. It was when she saw the whisker marks that she realized it was the same blond that saved her two years ago from those guys.
The blond boy suddenly turned around and Yugito looked in his eyes, he didn't spot her yet. She was hidden in the dark; it was hard to see her. All she needed to do is stand still and make sure she doesn't make any noise. The chain attached to her chest would make enough noise if she would move. She didn't understand why there was a chain attached to her chest and why she didn't go to hell or heaven if she died.
The blond boy suddenly disappeared leaving golden sparks in the spot he used to be. Yugito let out a relieved sigh thinking that he might have given up looking for her. She brought her feet closer to her and held them to her chest. She put her head on her knees and waited for something to happen, it wasn't like she would go or could go anywhere right now.
"Hey…" said a voice near her. Now normally someone would jump up and yell scared, but Yugito calmly turned to the direction of the voice and saw the blond boy there smiling at her.
"So you found me…" she said sadly thinking that he would finish her now.
Naruto looked at her curious wondering why she was so sad to see him. "Umm…is there something wrong?" he asked confused
Yugito looked down at her feet. "You're a shinigami right?" she asked
The blond nodded. "Yes I am…"
"Doesn't that mean you would devour me like the legends say?" she asked surprisingly calm.
The blond boy blinked, he blinked again before starting to chuckle and then laugh. The girl looked at him strangely and blinked at his attitude wondering why he was laughing.
"Sorry…" said Naruto "It was just too funny…"
"Funny?" asked Yugito
The blond chuckled. "No I will not devour you, despite what the legends say we shinigami are a guide for the spirit, the newly deceased and so on."
"Guide?" the girl asked curious
Naruto nodded again. "Yes, take me for example, if I would tap the end of my hilt on your forehead I would send you to heaven, or as we call it Soul Society."
"So that is why I didn't leave this place?" asked the girl
The blond nodded again. "That is the reason why you are still here."
"But what is with this chain?" asked Yugito
"There will be someone to tell you that later." responded Naruto "I still have unfinished business."
"What business?" asked Yugito a little upset that the boy won't stay a longer
"Fir starters I need to eliminate the Akatsuki…." he said making the girls eyes widen "Second I want to skin alive the one that did this to you."
Yugito blushed at the comment. "Why would you do that for me?" she asked
"Us jinchuuriki need to stick together." he said with a grin and extending his hand to her offering her a hand.
The girl looked at him and smiled; she gladly took the hand and stood up. Naruto then flash stepped away with her and reappeared in front of Hitsugaya that was standing on a rock looking at nothing. The two Hokage's had returned from the funeral by now.
The three shinigami looked up at Naruto and the spirit. It was the girl whose body the two Hokage's had just buried. Naruto grinned at them and let go of the girl.
"Where was she?" asked the captain amazed that he had found her
"Around here…" responded the blond
"How did she hide herself?" the captain asked again
"A jinchuuriki knows how to hide." said Naruto and the captain looked at him strangely "I'm talking from experience." the blond said sadly
The captain nodded and looked at the spirit. "So who will guide her to Soul Society?"
"I could." responded Minato
Hitsugaya nodded. "Alright, then when you are done with her come back here and lets finish the job."
"That reminds me." said Naruto as he turned to look at Yugito "Who killed you?" he asked "Name and how he looks like."
The girl looked down sadly. "The one that killed me said his name was Hidan, he had a three bladed scythe and white hair."
Naruto nodded. "Alright, then I will finish him." he said with confidence "Where did they go?" he asked
"Towards the Fire Country, Konoha I think." responded the girl
Naruto nodded. "Alright, dad here will guide you to Soul Society." he said as he pointed to Minato. "I hope I will see you in Seireitei." he said before flash stepping away.
"Hey!" shouted Hitsugaya "Damn it why does he always have to do that?" he asked clearly annoyed
"Naruto had precious people in Konoha and if the Akatsuki really are going there he wants to be sure that they die before they can kill someone from Konoha." responded the Sandaime
Hitsugaya sighed. "Fine…come on let's go and catch up." he said before both he and the Sandaime flash stepped away leaving Yugito alone with Minato.
The blond man turned to look at the girl; he smiled gently at her as he unsheathed his zanpakuto. "I think my son already told you how this works."
The girl nodded. "Yes he did."
"Good, this won't hurt." he said as he gently tapped her forehead. She started fading in the ground surrounded by white light. The last thing that passed her mind before she disappeared completely was Naruto; she would have to thank him for what he did for her. Despite he couldn't save her a second time he at least saved her the first time.
---
Naruto was speeding through the forest. He was outraged of what the Akatsuki did, he was angry that not only the jinchuuriki had to live a bad life they had to die by the hands of some maniacs now, and at young ages.
The blond boy was moving faster and faster as he wanted to reach his destination before the Akatsuki would try anything and would hurt anyone precious in the village. He knew that Zabuza was a Konoha ninja now and because of that he wanted to make sure nothing happens to him. There were also other people precious to him that he wanted to make sure they survive.
As he was speeding through the forest he suddenly felt a large chakra spike. He turned towards the area where the spike was coming from and moved faster, or in other words flash stepped.
---
Asuma was dodging a large scythe; they had encountered an Akatsuki that couldn't be killed. Never in his life had he seen a person that cannot die. Kotetsu and Izumo looked petrified at the fight, Shikamaru was trying to find a way to change everything, and he was trying to find a way to defeat this guy.
Suddenly the large scythe was closer to him, it was about to cut his cheek when it was blocked by a strange sword. Asuma jumped away and looked at the newcomer. A blond boy the same age as Shikamaru with a black kimono, he had two swords, one sheathed and the other unsheathed. The man saw three whisker marks on each cheek on the newcomer; he wondered where he had seen whisker marks before.
"Who the hell are you?" demanded Hidan pointing to the blond boy
The boy looked at the Akatsuki and sneered. He opened his palm and moved his hand towards the enemy. "Hadou 31: Shot of Red Fire." he said calmly, yet deadly. A fireball shot from his hand.
"You think you can kill me?" asked Hidan laughing. His laughter was cut short as the fireball hit him and sent him flying away. He could feel the pain and the burns on his body. He looked at the boy curious.
"What a nice feeling of pain." he said "Maybe I will start my ritual with you."
The only response from the blond boy was him disappearing and reappeared in front of Hidan with his sword raised to cut. The Akatsuki member jumped to the side avoiding the attack, the boy turned towards him and shot forward with his sword raised. He moved the sword to the side and did a vertical slash on the Akatsuki member's chest. Said man laughed as he felt the pain in his body.
"So pathetic…" he said as he kicked the blond boy away.
"Hey get out of there!" shouted Asuma "You cannot fight an Akatsuki boy!"
"Oh yes…you can't fight me, unless you have a death wish." mocked Hidan
"Actually…" responded the blond looking at Hidan "I might not have a death wish but you do."
"Oh do I?" he asked mockingly
"Yes…" the blond responded as he disappeared and reappeared behind the man cutting him on the back. "This is for the jinchuuriki of the two tailed cat which you killed!" the boy shouted
Hidan narrowed his eyes and jumped away, he looked at the boy. "Who are you?" he asked curious
The boy looked at him with cold eyes. "Uzumaki Naruto, former jinchuuriki of Kyuubi no Kitsune." he responded making everyone's eyes widen in shock.
A/N: Guess this is it, a little cliffhanger, two or three chapters with Akatsuki and then Bleach…seems fair that way lol.
