Chapter 13: To Plan and fight

Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto or Fullmetal, Ed is not a fox and Naruto hasn't lost his/her arm yet. Now review before Naruto turn you into a statue too.

Beta Reader: None at the moment

It has been four weeks since Orochimaru have taken Sasuke Uchiha's body and it has already started to change. His hair change from being as a chicken rear end to being slick and long like Orochimaru's was. Also, the body's skin has become paler to resemble a white snake and his eyes are becoming lighter, almost yellow in color. Luckily, no one was put any danger as the Uchiha rarely spoke or even look at Sasuke as they dropped off food for him. Also, Mikoto have never visited Sasuke, knowing her last son is dead.

As days gone by, knowledge of the Leaf inactive to the tournament has become the hot topic to the Elemental Nations. Even Orochimaru got word of it despite being isolated and Naruto was worried that he may change his plans. Thankfully, Orochimaru didn't and was even sure of himself that he thought the bigger the event, the bigger the distraction will be. So Naruto plan was still in motion as the village prepare for battle as their allies gather.

As the battle preparation was set up, Leaf forces have been slowly sneaking in several foreign ally ninjas. As Mist, Sound and Waterfall sent a few dozen ninjas to deal with Orochimaru's snakehead forces. Lightening couldn't send any as their Daimyo ordered them to send every available ninja within their borders to hunt down the mass murder, the Question Doc, for making a mockery of him by kill his people within Kumo village and get away despite Naruto's team trying to stop him. The Raikage sent his apologies and promised to allow no Snake Head past their borders as Leaf Forces deal with them within their own town.

Another problem then rises when the Mist-nins want their aid in capturing someone.

"Hokage-sama, Naruto-sama," Zabuza respectfully bowed to the two. "I have a message from Mei. She wishes for you to help our ninjas capturing one of Orochimaru's elite."

"Is it Kimimaro Kaguya?" Naruto asked, thinking Mist may want their most powerful blood user back.

"No, as the Kaguya is most likely going to die from his disease," Zabuza explained as he shook his head. "No, we want aid to capture the grand niece to the Daimyo and only female among his elites, Tayuya."

"How did Orochimaru get his hands on the grandniece of a Daimyo?" The Hokage asked and Naruto looked at him weirdly.

"It would not be hard to kidnap a girl in a civil war. It was common for people to disappear, even important figures much higher than the Grandniece that is low in the line of succession," Naruto pointed out as Zabuza nodded.

"Yep, the Daimyo lost one of his sons and has little concern for a girl that isn't one of his generals or high up on the chain since she would be twenty-eight in line," Zabuza agreed with Naruto. "However that is not the problem. The problem is that our Daimyo want her brought back to Kiri. To show he isn't tied to a monster like Orochimaru."

"I see, he wants her rescued so he seems like a caring leader and not a monster that kill his kin or allow Orochimaru to experiment on them," Naruto stated as Zabuza nodded.

"Alright, Zabuza lets me tell you how you can help get Tayuya," Naruto then started to feel Zabuza in.

Now that the plans were set in place, it was time for the matches to begin for the third part of the Chūnin exams as she and the full team appears to be there. "Greeting ladies and gentlemen to the biannual Chūnin exams," announced Jōnin Genma Shiranui, a brown haired man with senbon instead his mouth like a piece of hey. "Today we have a special team matches for the first time, right here in the leaf." Genma stopped to hear the cheers before he announce, "Now our first team, Team 8 is what you call a scout/hunter-nin team. We have Kiba Inuzuka, who tracks down their enemies and the heavy hitter if need be, his teammate Ami uses her Genjutsu to keeps them hidden and distract her opponents and Sakura provide support as medic, Genjutsu and heavy hitting if the rumor of Tsunade taking her in is true." All the Jōnin around Kurenai to confirm it but the black hair beauty decided to look innocent instead.

"However, don't count their opponents out as Team 10 is a recreation of the Ino-Cho-Shi assault/interrogation team, with Shikamaru Nara the brains, Chōji Amachi the heavy hitter, and Ino Yamanaka the support. So who will win, the traditional team or the scout team, let us find out, let the first match began," Genma sounded as the match began.

"Alright guys, let go!" Kiba yelled as rushed headfirst.

"Kiba! No!" Ami and Sakura yelled out to stop him.

Break

It was a hot summer day as Orochimaru forces, the Snake Heads, were prepare for the hit and run assault on Konoha to allow their boss escape. A patrol was nearby, scouting the front gates, thinking no one knew and Orochimaru's promise of glory. They didn't see two ANBU stalked them, until they were stabbed them their neck by senbon. Clean kill without a drop of blood.

Once they were down, the two took their clothing to infiltrate them and stop the summoning before they realize it.

Break

Back in the arena, the Genin were fighting hard in the arena. Kiba was taken out by Chōji, who quickly expanded his hands to a size that despite being protected by a Genjutsu to make Kiba disappear courtesy of Ami. However, Chōji was the next to be taken out by a huge bolder by Sakura. Ino soon followed by a Demonic Illusion: Double Hell Viewing Jutsu, a double illusion of a nightmare or fear that need to be dispel twice to work and the second being more realistic and more real. However, it seems Shikamaru that came through barley. First things he use is Shadow Imitation Jutsu to bind the two girls who were hidden by Chameleon Jutsu. Shikamaru explained by using their shadows to track them with their own shadows despite being invisible. He then in a rapid motion strikes his arms to side, which the girls copy and hit each other in the stomach to knock them out.

Shikamaru thought he won and Genma was about to announce Shikamaru the winner when Sakura revealed to be still awake and hit Shikamaru in the jaw. He skips three times before falling to the ground, asleep, with a light snore. Genma announce Team 8 the winner while Sakura heal up Ami to wake up Kiba, before they both hit him in the head for his stupidity.

Tsunade couldn't help but brag to Asuma, who was humiliated by his team defeat to a supposed easy win. Meanwhile the judges discuss that while Team 10 showed intelligence, they lacked the skills and will be promoted to Elite Genin and Shikamaru Special Chūnin. Team 8 girls will be promoted to Chūnin due to intelligence and skill, poor Kiba is left behind for showing off no skill or intelligence. So the next set of matches of Leaf verse Sand.

"Alright ladies and Gentlemen, it is time for the next set of matches. We have a classic Sand verses Leaf battle, between the children of the former Fourth Kage against the Roth and Nature Clans seen here in Konoha. Let us see who comes on top," Genma yelled before he started the match.

Temari was the one who started the battle by sending down her huge fan to send to strike. However, Night Wolf dispersed the wind by sending a kick of wind from his clan techniques. Meanwhile, Revan move into to charge with Night Wolf providing cover. Kankurō tried to strike with his puppet, but Revan made quick of the doll as she sliced it to pieces with her green energy blades. Kankurō surrender, since he can't fight without his puppets and he would get in the way.

Gaara then moved to attack Revan. He notice his attack were slow and almost none responsive and turned his attention to Bastila, who was in a meditation stance. Unlike his brother, he studies all the clans to have an expectation on what he will face. He was quite interested in the Roth's Clan rare part of their sage bloodline and it was Battle Meditation. The ability to drain an opponent will to fight while strengthen an ally and he had a feeling the brown head girl Bastila knew Battle Meditation.

He notices his familiar on his shoulder, Alice wasn't affected and he asked in a whisper, "Alice, can you do a faint attack at Revan before attacking Bastila with my sand if I allow you to control me."

"If I do, can you promise not to stop me when I go Ed hunting," Alice asked with a perverted grin.

"Yes, as long as you leave with me when it is time to go," Gaara added the speculation.

"Then you got a deal," Alice had stated as she jump on his head and took control of the sand.
The group then used a torrent of sand towards Revan before fainting and attack Bastila. Bastila only warning was the rushing sand, before she got out her double-blade energy blade that gave a yellow color. She tried to cut her way through, but the amount of sand Alice was using was too much for Bastila and she was slammed into the ground, out cold.

With Bastila gone, the fight became even as Night Wolf and Revan duo faced Gaara and Temari together and were evenly match. Especially as Temari summon Weasels to even the score against a sage Revan and Night Wolf, who was infused with his spirit animal. The match soon end in a draw as the two teams gave up due to exestuation. The six Genin were likely to become Chūnin, even Kankurō for backing off and surrendering to get out of his teammates way. The crowd also went wild, never realizing the danger that was approaching from the shadows while Naruto receive a report.

"Naruto-sama," an Anbu had whispered. "Mist aquatic squads have a met a few of Orochimaru pirates outside of the plan. Before they give a warning. They are waiting further instructions."

"Tell them to continue the mission," Naruto ordered. "Zabuza will berate them later."

The Anbu nodded, before disappearing while Zabuza team was meeting off against Sound forces and taking. Both had a lot in stake of this fight as both need to show their village was strong to recover or build. That is why the next set of matches will be strictly foreign as it is Team Aqua and Team Hope. Of course, the conversation was cut short when an ANBU told Zabuza what happen and he plan to give them a one for almost ruining the plan of attach.

Back to the matches, Team Aqua had Haku Momochi as the leader. Next to him are Chōjūrō, a shy boy with short messy blue hair, and square blue glasses/ear muffs, and a huge sword with two handles rapped up. He twitched his hand while muttering, "I hope I don't disappoint Zabuza and Mei-Sama." The third and final teammate is Akai Ken. A quiet man with brown hair tied under his bandana and intimating eyes that only added by a faint scare over an intact an eye. He wore a red trench coat as well as black sleeves shirt, his hands twitching and staying close to his two swords, a black zanbato and a red katana.

The Mist-nins then looked over to Fūma clan's sponsor village of Sound. Standing in front is the leader, Kagerō Fūma, an ugly hunch back guy with buckteeth. Standing beside Kagerō is Sasame Fūma, a girl around Team Alchemy's age. She also had long orange hair, beautiful brown eyes hidden under thick grey cloths and cap. The final member was not a Fūma clan member but a civilian trained ninja named Kin Tsuchi, a black eyes and hair beauty that wore similar clothing Sasame minus the cap. The Sound team looked at their opponent to see a subtle skill in each other, and knew that it will be a difficult test.

Break

In anther region, several hundred Snake Heads were invading. Most were druggies, doped on Sin. Making them strong enough to take on your average Leaf-nin. However, unknown to them was two of the Snake Heads passing the dope out was a Leaf-nin infiltrator. By the time of the invasion, they will all be fine to attack, but two minutes later, one forth will drop dead by the agent poisoning them.

Break

The fight soon winded down between Team Hope and Team Mist. Team Hope prove to be an all female team as the hunch back man revealed to be a petty woman with butterfly wings. However, the battle of the sexes soon ended with an ice field senbon needles lying around, and both teams surrendering in a tie with no knocked out.

It soon came down to a finale team to be revealed to fight was a surprise; it was Team Alchemy and Team Guy. The two greatest teams from Konoha and ultimate grudge matches of taijutsu vs. ninjutsu, weapon mistress vs. bug user and Branch Hyūga vs. Main House Hyūga.

Once the words "Go," were said, Neji rushed forward towards Hinata. His eyes showed he wasn't fighting for his promotion, but with revenge on the mind. As he closed in on Hinata, her teammates jumped away for Hinata to use her ultimate Alchemy defense. She activated her special talent to create a wind at Neji and send him flying backwards. As Neji rolled on the ground, Tenten and Lee went to face their respective opponents while Neji slowly got up.

He looked at Hinata anger as he yelled, "You damn traitor. It's bad enough that you went to that bitch for new techniques, to use against me, a prodigy. While you, a failure, should fight like a Hyūga and just except defeat as fate decreed. Do you have any shame or honor?"

Hinata didn't even reply, for she did not care. Neji was no longer her family in her eyes and she was ready to fight for her family her team. Hinata just got into a lose fight stances and wait for Neji to strike. In the stands, all Naruto can do was face palm, "What honor, were ninjas, not samurai. The only honor we care about is between comrades and clients. That boy needs a reality check."

"Well that brat is differently not going to get promoted," Anko commented.

"I don't like how he is looking at Hinata," Hana added.

"Will be able to stop him if he goes too far," Naruto told Hana. "We have more than enough power to crush him if need be. Now let's stop with our comments and look how are other students have their own."
Tenten was the first to strike at Shino. The weapon mistress had kunai to use as she went on the offensive. Shino responded by summing a swarm of insects from himself, the very specialty of the Aburame clan. Shino then sent the swarm upon Tenten. Tenten responded by pulling out kunais with exploding tags. She sent them on the horde of insects coming towards them, to kill off many swarms of insects. That was the plan until Shino stomp on the ground to send the rock up. Then with his gantlets to send the rock fly at the kunai to deflect them while the rocks continue towards Tenten.

Tenten jumped away as the kunais flew high in the air and they explode. Tenten soon found herself on the run while Lee rushed against Tukiko as she used 'Fire Style: Fire Phoenix Jutsu.' The multiple fireballs were meant to keep Lee back. However, Lee proved to be fast and tough enough to plow through a fireball. Tukiko only had a brief moment to evade the first strike, but didn't protect herself from a kick across her stomach. Tukiko found her out of breath while flying across the area.

Before Tukiko hit the ground hard, she regained her breath, snapped her fingers, and set off a small explosion under Lee's feet. As Lee rolled, Tukiko landed on her feet and began to make him run with explosions to keep Lee moving away from Tenten. The two were making sure that their opponents don't switch with each other.

Meanwhile, with Hinata and Neji were facing each other. Hinata mumble, "Are you going to show me that you're superior, or run like your teammates are running."

That did it as he yelled, "I'll show you!"

Neji rushed Hinata, fully prepare to strike using 'Eight Trigrams: Sixty Four Palms.' A Hyūga technique that strike two, four, eight, sixteen, to finally thirty-four strikes at speeds that double for each attack. It was a Main Branch technique of the Hyūga and their most powerful move. A move that had no counter, until now since Hinata has been trained under a new loose taijutsu under Naruto.

In fact, Hinata help created a counter technique, 'Protection of the Eight Trigrams Sixty-Four Palms.' The technique was when Hinata thinned her chakra into laser beams to counter each strike Neji used and damage his arms by disrupting his own chakra. Neji was now wide eyes when he realized that his arms were useless.

Hinata only smiled at Neji before asking, "I guess training outside the Gentle Fist comes in handy now."

Neji could only snarl before Hinata kick the man in the face. Neji was soon flying to sleepy land before he was declared the loser. Hinata then looked up to see Tukiko had won her fight when Lee. He stopped to ask his sensei to take his weights off before Tukiko created an explosion to knocked Lee out. Tenten soon surrender realizing she was outnumbered severally. Well the last four were insure of promotion.

In the stands, Naruto gave a brief clap before signaling allied forces to be wary. If an attack were going to happen, now would be a perfect time to attack. Especially as all three Kages, the Hokage, Baki the Kazekage and the busty redheaded Mizukage. As he came down, he started his speech while all the Genin all awake to hear the beginning of Sarutobi's speech. "I like to Congratulate for-"

As soon as the Hokage said, 'for' a genjutsu began to descend on the audience and explosions pop up to reveal several Snake Heads. It was then that the Jōnins of Team Alchemy struck. Anko came up and killed the leader of the Snake Heads with several snakes. Hana had struck the disguised ANBU, who had performed the genjutsu. The man's death lead for the genjutsu to break as several others from the audience pop up to reveal they were the alliance ninjas and began killing the Snake Heads in front of the audience. Similar explosions were happening all around as the Snake sprung their trap and was getting massacre for it.

It was then that Naruto jumped to stand beside the Hokage, "I'll leave the fighting in your hands, Hokage-sama."

"Happy hunting Naruto," Sarutobi told Naruto, just before Naruto, Anko and Hana disappeared in a puff of smoke. The three were clone. The three were never here.

Break

Over the sight, the three were gaining the memories of the events their clones' experience, as they stake out the house. They were waiting for their targets and they didn't have to wait long after the first explosions. Dante has arrived, cloaked and caring a scroll, with Kabuto and two Snake Heads, with Orochimaru waiting at the front door. They slowly moved in silently to hear the two speaking.

"Ready to escape Orochimaru?" Dante asked while pulling open a scroll.

"Get on with it," Orochimaru demanded on it.

"Very well," Dante stated while pulling out her scroll to reveal a premade Alchemy Circle.

Dante then activate the array to deactivate all of Naruto's seals. Orochimaru smiled as he walked out. That smile quickly lost its luster when the two Snake Heads were killed. One killed by Naruto nails, and the other being bitten by multiple, poisonous, snakebites. The two failed to revealed Naruto with, Anko and Hana and her three dogs, ready to fight them.

"Naruto Uzumaki-Elric!" Orochimaru growled in a voice that reminded Naruto of Sasuke. "YOU DAMN BEAST!"

However, Dante looks at the four arrivals and notice Ed on Naruto's shoulder. "Hello Ed, its been awhile," Dante smiled at Ed.

"How did you escaped into this world?" Ed asked.

Dante stated with what sound like a smug smile, "When Greed came after me, I transfer my soul through the gates like you did. I traveled to Lyra's body in the other world. I also discovered to prolong the body I control by devouring the soul."

Dante then tile her head while fully cloaked to state, "Of course, all Alchemy was gone but I found away to preserve this body through the advance technology that came about until Alchemy was restored. You don't know how happy I was for the body was about to fail and I would have surly died."

Ed growled while Dante continue, "I eventually created a new Philosopher Stone while taking bodies and devouring souls when I need it and its all thanks to you, Ed."

Ed on Naruto's shoulder was silent, until it screamed. Ed had jumped off Naruto's shoulders to create a rock spike at Dante. She jumped to away and began to running away from the group. Naruto seeing Dante run cursed, "Fuck it. Hana, Anko, make sure Kabuto and Orochimaru die like the traitors they are. I'll go after Dante."

Naruto then ran after Dante while Anko grinned like the canary caught the pigeon, "With pleasure."

Anko then rushed Orochimaru while Hana took on Kabuto.

Break

In the arena, things were going in full chaos, especially since the Sound 4 Snake Heads to fight. The three Kages were up against three of four. While the last fourth is to be captured, for the small redhead, a foul mouth girl. The girl was the Water Daimyo niece known as Tayuya. She was being handling by Team Alchemy and the Team Mist teaming up. While the rest, they were have to deal with the Snake Heads.

Tayuya was the weakest, being the genjutsu master of the group. She also can summon three giant ogres to fight for her, so the team had to get pass them to capture the girl. While the Genin were fighting and evading the giants while Tayuya cursed then in between playing her flute that control the ogres.

"Come on you bitches, let see how you limp dicks can handle this!" Tayuya yelled while she ordered an ogre to attack Hinata.

While the Ogre raised its club to strike Hinata, but used her Alchemy, to send it stumbling back while Shino and Tukiko knock one down and Team Mist took the other keep up with the third Ogre. It was then decapitated by Akai while used 'Water Style: Tsunami Jutsu' to send the top body away. Chōjūrō then shaved the body in a chakra blast while Haku froze the other in an ice shard.

Tayuya soon back away, knowing she need to do something else. She desummon the Ogres and was about to resummon them when Akai appeared in front of Tayuya. "Now princess, none of that please," Akai stated.

"Who are you calling princess you jackass!?" Tayuya yelled as she tried to punch Akai.

Akai evaded and capture her hand and held her while Haku asked, "Are you not Tayuya, native from Water Country?"

Tayuya was shocked while Akai kissed her hand in gentlemen style, "Then that is why I call you princess, being the grandniece of our current daimyo."

Tayuya was further in shock while Haku told Tayuya, "Now, Tayuya. We are here to bring you back to Water Country."

"If you refuse, then we will take you in and I can grantee you, Leaf is less fortunate for those that are with Orochimaru," Tukiko explained.

However, Tayuya was tense when she told them off, "I don't believe you fucken brats."

"Tayuya, look around you," Hinata said softly.

Tayuya did as she stated and watched her comrades were being killed. Baki was cutting up with wind a big fat man with orange hair. A body with two individuals as one was being melted together by the Mizukage. The only one still alive out of the elite forces was tanned man that had six hands and fought like a spider. Yet even he wasn't enough against the out of shape, old Hokage.

Seeing Tayuya's comrades falling like flies, Hinata's words drove through Tayuya like stake through the heart. "Now, you are going to lose. Orochimaru knew you were going to lose, even if we were surprise as three Kages were here along with many of the elite shinobi from the Leaf."

"Logically, you have three choices, death, capture or surrender," Shino added before Hinata continue.

"But, by surrendering, you can still have a future. A future that doesn't involved following a man, a man who set you up to die to escape. A chance to be a lady instead of cannon folder. To help a country returns to prominence."

Tayuya was silent what Akai went in for the kill, "Come my Lady, it can't be that hard of decision. You don't belong with scum like them. You belong as a citizen of Water Country, and possibly a Mist kunoichi. If you want my fair maiden."

Tayuya was silently blushing while the group waited for her answer. However, before she could give one, they all soon had to jump away as multiple golden blades tried to stab them. Tayuya turned to see that her fellow Snake Head had escape a panting Hokage.

"Kidōmaru?" Tayuya stated.

"Let's move, Orochimaru needs us to cover his escape," Kidōmaru ordered Tayuya.

Tayuya was frozen before rage was coursing through her body, "No you cock sucker. I will not be Orochimaru's tool."

Tayuya's answer to Kidōmaru orders anger him. Made him so angry that gurgitate two golden blades. He yelled, "You bitch, die in the name of Orochimaru."

Tayuya closed her eyes, expecting death. However, she was surprise nothing happen. She opened her eyes to see Chōjūrō blocking the blades with a sword covered by bandages. A blade the size of a fat man and held by two handles. The sword had chakra moving across to make golden blades break apart to look like golden silk.

Kidōmaru backed off as Chōjūrō looked in his eyes to state, "You will not hurt Lady Tayuya."

It was then that Haku used 'Ice Style: Thousand Needles Jutsu' to send a thousand ice needles at Kidōmaru. Kidōmaru escape by jumping into the open for Akai to finish. Akai went through a hundred hand signs before using 'Water Style: Ridding Water Dragon Jutsu,' to summon a huge amount of water to form a dragon under his feet. Just before, he rushed Kidōmaru at rapids' speeds. Akai's blade out to kill Kidōmaru, where he either he die by waves or by the sword.

Kidōmaru saw this and jumped up to avoid the water but calculated the jump to be able to avoid the strike at once. Kidōmaru smirked as he thought he had evaded the attack as he land. That is what he thought until he flesh had open up and he began to bleed out. He fell on his knees as Akai approach from behind.

Kidōmaru looked up to ask, "How?"

"My specialty is not just water jutsus and kinjutsu, but also genjutsu. You just didn't know you were facing an illusion and you made a mistake trying to kill my wife," Akai stated before stabbing Kidōmaru in the heart and pulled it out.

Kidōmaru fell to the ground dead, as the three Kages came up to the Genin. "Good work, Team Mist," Mei smiled at the Genin. "Take Tayuya to safety while I deal with things here."

The Genin nodded before Haku turned to Hinata to ask Hinata to relay a message, "Please tell Naruto it was good seeing her again and I hope we see each other again."

The Mish shinobi disappeared with Tayuya in a swirl of water. After they were gone, Sarutobi fell to ground, coughing in pain, "Hokage-sama!" the Leaf Genin rushed towards the Hokage.

Once the Hokage stop coughing, Shino asked, "Are you alright sir?"

"Yes, just tried," the Hokage had answered Shino. "It is just age is catching up with me."

"Don't worry Sarutobi," Mei told the Hokage. "We'll take care of things."

Sarutobi watch Mei and Baki disappeared, and all he could think was, 'I am too old.' Retirement sounds good to the Hokage.

Break

In the Uchiha district, Orochimaru and Anko were duking it out. Orochimaru was leaning across, as Sasuke's body was not meant for a long fight. Anko was staring down Orochimaru, promising that today was going to be his last days. Sasuke in desperation used 'Fire Style: Fire Dragon Jutsu,' to create a huge flaming dragon at Anko. Anko counter with 'Earth Style: Earth Wall Jutsu.' It protected Anko from the majority of the flames.

Anko then follow up with 'Earth Style: Swamp of the Underworld Jutsu,' to trap Sasuke. Sasuke jumped up to avoid the death trap, but couldn't avoid Anko's next attack as he would in his old body. Anko in a flash used 'Snake Heads Jutsu' to grabbed hold of Orochimaru by the vipers. Orochimaru was trapped as Anko retracted the vipers to real Orochimaru in.

"Do you know how long I have been waiting for this?" Anko asked, with a smile that resemble the chastity cat.

"You think you can kill me?!" Orochimaru demanded as he continued to struggle.

"With this seal that Naruto created to hold you, hell yes," Anko said while she slapped a containment seal on a scared Orochimaru.

"Now Anko, surely we can-" Orochimaru tried to plead but found it useless.

"The only thing you can do is screamed for me! Now!" Anko yelled before sick a dozen vipers on Orochimaru before Anko began to get in close. The only thing that would remain of Orochimaru is the mangle body of Sasuke.

Break

While Anko was exacting her just revenge, Hana and her dogs were chasing down Kabuto. The four were moving in a tornado to cut through the forest try to hit Kabuto. Kabuto could only curse as he hadn't learned any jutsu not meant for close combat. However, his mind could help him stay ahead the tornadoes of death.

While the five play a game of cat and dog, Kabuto decided to get serious. Kabuto used chakra scalpels to slice across one of the tornado. In a puff, it revealed to be an injured dog. Kabuto was about to finished the dog off, but did not as he was attacked by two dogs transformed into their master, Hana. Kabuto was hit in the back and had deep cuts on his back and legs. Kabuto then fall to ground, defeated. At least, that was what the dogs thought before Kabuto's wounds regenerated and cuts the dogs tendons. Kabuto had taken both dogs out of the fight and ready to be finished off.

Kabuto had remained on the defensive, waiting for attack. He got his wish when a tornado strike came from underground. He couldn't defend himself as he struck in the stomach and lifted several feat in the air. The tornado dispersed to reveal Hana, with her claws ready. She struck and cut Kabuto throat. He then fell to the ground, holding onto his throat for dear life as Hana walked over to him.

Hana stared down at Kabuto and saw he was regenerating, from his own healing technique. Hana did not was to give the traitor a chance to fight again. She raised her hand high, and brought it down, hard. She had ripped Kabuto face off with a fast swipe. Looking at her success, she walked over to her dogs to heal them. No one harms an Inuzuka dog and gets away with it. Hana was going to spending the rest of day helping her dogs.

Break

In the outer gates, a cloaked woman was making her way to the gates to escape. As she ran, a few allied ninjas tried to stop her. They died trying to stop her as she used her alchemy to clear away with rocky spikes. However, as soon as she reached the gates, a rock wall appeared in front of her to stop her. Dante used alchemy to clear a path to reveal Naruto and Ed was there, waiting for her.

"I hope you didn't plan to leave the party so soon," Naruto stated. "You and I have much to discus."

Dante smirked as she slammed her hands into the ground to send rock spikes at Naruto. Naruto caught Dante by surprise when she used Greed's ability to protect herself. The spikes gave Naruto a few cuts before bouncing off. The next thing Dante knew, Naruto had summon a fountain of water and hit Dante when she least expected it. She was thrown into a wall by high pressure of water. She laying against the wall as Naruto walked within six feet of her.

"It's over Dante, you lost," Naruto told Dante while Ed gave some last words.

"You are going to pay for what you have done, it's up to you to decide if it will be prison or death."

However, Naruto and Ed would never suspect she would be laughing instead. "I never thought… (Laugh) that a mortal could gain the seven powers of sin. It makes it all the worth it."

"Keep talking Dante, you are not getting out of her alive," Ed told Dante.

"Oh but Naruto is going to let me go," Dante explained to Ed.

"And why is that?" Naruto asked.

"For you wouldn't want to kill your own mother, now would you?" Dante asked as pulled her cloak back.

Dante pulled back her cloak to reveal a woman. A woman that's hair was red as a tomato. With skin tanned from spending hours in the sun. And her eyes, eyes were blue as Naruto's blue eye. It was woman Naruto saw often, only in a picture. It was a woman famous, to those that fought in the Third Great Shinobi War. It was a woman Naruto wanted to meet, but couldn't as she was dead. It was the body of Naruto's mother, Kushina Uzumaki.

Dante only smiled as she asked Naruto, "Don't you want a hug my beautiful child?"

Naruto was frozen in place with the revelation that Dante has stolen her mother's body. Naruto slowly dethawed when she asked, "How?"

"My previous host was a traveling priest when I arrived into the village," Dante explained. "It was simple bypassing the defenses as few dare stop a priest giving last rights in the hospital and alchemy by pass me from other areas. During the attack, I found out that your mother, Kushina was vulnerable. I always wanted an Uzumaki for their longevity. So I took the chance by replacing your mother's body with the priest while I disappear."

Naruto quietly asked, "Why are you here?"

Dante smiled, "You see, when I heard about you and the fox name Ed, I couldn't believe it. I never thought it was able to transfer a tailed demon out. So I thought that it was also possible to transfer its powers."

Ed was then stated, "But you can't do it with an average body, only those that had been constantly expose to tailed chakra."

"Correct," Dante smiled. "You see, Orochimaru was a means to an end, and one of many planned means. For the true goal is to have all nine tailed demons and one of the Jinchūriki. Plus I have gotten so use to an Uzumaki body. You're the finale peace, Naruto Uzumaki-Elric, you will be my finale body."

Naruto was silent as she raised her glove up but Dante stop her with her words. "Can you do it? Kill me, and possibly your mother."

Naruto stopped at Dante's words; she couldn't attack while Ed tried to snap her out of it. "Do it, there is nothing left of your mother!" Naruto however was quivering, as she couldn't do it. "Damn it Naru, if you won't, I will!"

"To late," Dante stated as she was slowly encase of stone to disappear, but not before some final words. "And Ed was right Naruto. Kushina's soul is no mare as I used a piece to continue my existence."

Naruto could only yell in frustration and explosions as Dante disappeared. Once she was done screaming and releasing her frustration, she broke down, crying at the true fate of her mother.

It was a day since the attack on the village was attacked and the casualty reports had come in. There had been a very few due to the preemptive strike. Also, their relationships have improved between Wind and Water Countries due to helping Sand-nins in their revenge for their leader and returning Tayuya to Water Country. Now came down to the report on Dante. "I am so sorry Naruto," Sarutobi told Naruto. "It must not be easy killing your mother's body.

"It's alright old man," Naruto stated. "There is nothing left of my mother. I will kill Dante for using her body."

"I am worried what other plans she has," Ed told the two.

"It could mean the Akashi that Itachi are spying in. You need to ask Jiraiya when he reports in," Naruto stated before Naruto notice the Hokage was looking down. "Sir, what's the matter?"

Sarutobi sighed, "I am, too old. The fight yesterday prove it when I couldn't kill my target while the other Kages did. I think it's time for me to retire."

Naruto nodded in understanding as she asked, "So whose going to be my boss."

Sarutobi looked at Naruto, silently giving his answer. "No!" Naruto shocked her head. "I am to young to be Hokage."

"Naruto, you are my second in command, there is no one else," the Hokage explained before he began his manipulation. "Beside, as Hokage you can implement new organizations and increase funding for existing. Imagine help creating the medic corps she wanted, and have funds to have an actually LCIS outside your team. Isn't worth it to be Hokage a few years younger?"

Naruto was silent when she agreed, "Alright old man, I take your hat. Just don't expect me to be an Hokage that sits behind that desk of yours."

Sarutobi laugh as he stated, "Wouldn't dream of Naru-chan. Wouldn't dream of it."

In a clearing, Dante was starring over a ridge. Walking behind her was man in a black cloak with red clouds. The man bowed before Dante before reporting, "Ma'am, we are gathering the recourses of Orochimaru. Pain-sama is awaiting orders."

"Tell him to proceeded as planned," Dante told the minion. "Soon, the world will be mine, as well you Ed, and Naruto Uzumaki-Elric."

Sorry if it took a long time to update. I hope to have one more before this summer end. Hope you enjoy this chapter of Naruto, the Fullmetal Fox Alchemist.

Author Notes

A) Sorry it took so long with an update, but I got distracted by my other stories. I am going to put on hiatus for future chapters unless someone volunteer to write future chapters for me. I can write a story outline, but not the whole thing right now.

1) I figure it will be the same with the Daimyos as Roman Empire decision of Emperors.

2) Sorry, I am not going into the fight and giving a brief description with some of the fights, but I felt that they were not needed and need time for all the fights and flashbacks leading up to the operations.

3) Hope you enjoy the fights for the next set against them.

4) To Leaf Ranger, I lost track what Akai was suppose to be like, so I had to remake him. I want to say sorry if I got him wrong.

5) There will be no Orochimaru or Kabuto as the main villain, Dante and certain members of the Akashi make better ones.

6) Yes, I am that cruel to have Dante use Kushina's body as her new host.
