Spies in Konoha

Chapter 9: Truths and lies.

Written by Jlargent

Me: Well here we are with a new chapter of the New Year.

Itachi: Well it's about time.

Me: Hey I had to take a break before writing this and to decide how to proceed with the story.

Itachi: Jlargent does not own Naruto or Totally Spies so the typical disclaimers apply if you do sue him you will taste my Tsukoyomi.

Me: I really appreciate the feedback so keep reviewing. Fact: Amount American Airlines saved in 1987 by eliminating one olive from each salad served first class: $40,000.

Naruto's POV

Now that Itachi has returned everyone seemed to be on edge as though he could try something at anytime. I can't say that I blame them someone has gone to great lengths to frame Itachi for the murder of his clan the question is who and why. Itachi mentioned a group of people who feel that Konoha has gotten too soft and feels that they should take control of the village. I wouldn't be surprised that they would do it an investigation at the Uchiha district revealed traces of an unknown charka signature. And it was later revealed that that the murder weapon in question was plain ordinary ink looking into the ANBU records there is only one person who fit's the profile to the letter. And we're going to interrogate him.

Itachi and I stand in front of the Root Organization entrance and we make our way in. we penetrate the inner sanctum of the organization and we had yet to meet a single member until at last we arrived to the center of the complex and there waiting for us was several ninjas and they promptly surrounded us in a tight circle when a voice spoke from out of nowhere obviously addressing to us "Ah welcome Itachi and you brought company as well, the nine-tailed demon variety to boot. Pardon my lack of manners my name is Danzo the founder of the Root Organization. My men shall welcome you properly." the mysterious figure turned and walked away to leave us to face his entire army Itachi spoke up "Naruto I can handle these weaklings I want you to go on ahead." I protested "But Itachi I know you're good but not even you can handle this many guys at once." Itachi smirked "I have the perfect jutsu in mind for this situation. But I need you to clear out so that I won't kill you by accident. Now go I'll catch up with you in a moment." with those words I ran ahead leaving Itachi to face a large number of enemies I could only hope that he keeps his promise.

I ran down several corridors until at last I arrived in a large empty room and there was Danzo standing there all bandaged up "Give it up Danzo whatever you're planning won't work." after a moment of silence he started laughing a slight chuckle building into a full blown maniacal laugh "It's too late to stop my plans to take over Konoha, I admit I did not expect Sauske to kill Orochimaru, that was a slight setback my initial plan was to form an alliance with the Sound Village in an attempt at a coup. But I have no choice but to use plan B; Kill Tsunade and place the blame on Itachi. After all it has worked once before." I stare in shock "You killed the Uchiha clan? Why?" Danzo merely smirked "I asked Itachi's father for help to try to wrest control of Konoha from that fool Sarutobi and they refused telling me 'As long as the Uchiha clan resides in Konoha they shall fight to protect the village from fools like myself. ' in retaliation I had my men kill those idealistic fools leaving Sauske alive so that he could say that it was his dear older brother that committed the massacre was a stroke of genius on my part. All that was left was to wait for the opportune moment for me to recruit Sauske to join me and then I would eventually take over. But having him placed in squad seven with you was unforeseen. But now that you know the truth I'm afraid that you will die here along with that fool Itachi." with those words he removed his bandages, apparently the bandages were just a ruse he looked as though he was always healthy and fit with a smirk he rushed me and slammed a fist into my midsection sending me into the wall on the other side of the room.

I groaned as Danzo grabbed me by the collar of my jacket and lifted me up he looked into my eyes filled with contempt and hatred "You are really pathetic, I expected more of the fox-demon." he looked in surprise as I hit him from behind as my shadow-clone dissipated, he turned around as I created a Odama Rasengan slamming him in the chest sending him flying into the wall and creating a rather unique impression I turned to head back to Itachi. Suddenly, I sensed that Danzo was still alive, after a huge hit like that there was no way he could be alive I dodge a fist from Danzo, he stood there like it was nothing "Surprised? I never told anyone about my kekkei genkai I call it 'absolute restoration' it's quite useful; whenever I receive critical injuries my body heals itself completely no matter how many times you try to kill me I'll come back as good as new. Which means you will tire out before I do." he said as he began an all out assault upon my body. In the span of three minuets Danzo inflicted several cuts and cracked at least three ribs and broke my left arm rendering me helpless, as Danzo loomed over me I shot a charka gun in desperation point blank at his head he merely caught it and extinguishes it with his bare hands "Pathetic. Like I said earlier I expected more from you too bad perhaps in the next life you would stand a better chance." he said as he raised his sword high in the air meaning to slice my head off in one smooth motion.

"Fire style: Dragon of black flames." I heard Itachi say as a black dragon shot from his mouth striking Danzo head on. Itachi grabs my right hand as I watch Danzo's body burn by the power of the black flames "By the time the flames die out there will be nothing left of him not even ashes. I apologize for being late those fools were a lot stronger than I expected." I sighed and smiled as I grabbed his right hand in a handshake "Thank you Itachi I owe you." I said as we left the complex. Now that the Root Organization has been destroyed I can focus on marrying my two fiancée's.

To be continued.
