Heyo dudes! For all of you Boruto watchers, I take it you saw the battle between the 5 Kage and Momoshiki. Let me just say that was a truly epic battle, especially when Boruto used his father's giant rasengan to send him straight into space. Anyhoo, let's get going with the next chapter!
(Forest on the Border of the Land of Fire, Daybreak)
Sakura wakes up to the smell of bacon and eggs and sees Jiraiya tending to breakfast.
"Morning Sakura," says Tenten as she sits by Sakura and hands her a plate.
"Hey Tenten," says the pink haired medical ninja as she takes a bite of her eggs. She looks to see Naruto and Hinata not around. "Where did Naruto and Hinata go?"
"I don't know," the weapon specialist says. "They were gone when we woke up."
"I'll go find them," says Ino as she sets her plate down. "Don't touch my food."
"I'll come with you, Ino," says Sakura as her and the platinum blonde walk into the forest. They reach the waterfall and look in shock of what laid before them. On the floor was a stark naked Naruto and Hinata cuddling each other. They both had hickeys on their neck. Sakura and Ino felt their jaws drop.
"You have to be kidding me," says Sakura. "You're telling me that these two were sleeping out in the wild buck naked?" She goes over to Naruto and shakes him lightly. "Naruto wake up. It's time to head on." Naruto shifts over.
"Mmm, five more minutes, mom," he says quietly. Sakura can't help but smile at how cute he sounded. Their blond Jinchuuriki opens his eyes to see Sakura and Ino in front of him. "Oh hey Sakura. Ino." He closes his eyes for one sec before snapping them open quickly. "SAKURA!? INO!?"He notices he was still naked and looked to see Hinata next to him also naked.
"Well, you two must've had a nice night," says Ino smirking as she looked at her leader's impressive manhood. Hinata begins to stir.
"Naruto-kun, what time is it," she says rubbing her eyes. She looks to see Sakura and Ino standing before them. She then noticed she was still naked and turned crimson and covered up her body. "Sakura-san, Ino-san, we can explain."
"Oh there's no need for that," says Ino. "You two must've had fun with each other. Let me guess you guys lost both your virginity?" The two naked ninja look down in shame.
"No freaking way," says Sakura. "You mean you two actually did 'it'?" Naruto looks away.
"Kinda," he says with shame and in preparation for a slap to the face. But what he heard next was shocking.
"Congrats you two," says Ino. Naruto and Hinata look in shock. They were expecting a lot of criticism from the two kunoichi.
"Huh? You're not mad," asks Hinata. Sakura puts her hands on her shoulder.
"Look Hinata. You've liked Naruto longer than the two of us, so it's only natural that you make love to him first." The pink haired kunoichi turns away. "You two get dressed. We won't tell anyone about this 'incident'." Ino and Sakura walk away as Naruto and Hinata get dressed.
"Well, Hinata sure got lucky," says Ino.
"Yep, those two definitely looked cute together," says Sakura
"Next time we should sleep with that hot blond chunk of beef," says Inner Sakura giving two thumbs up, much to the original's embarrassment. Meanwhile, as Naruto and Hinata got dressed, the former looks to his partner.
"You know Hina-chan? I had fun last night," Naruto say with his trademark smile as he zips up his pants. Hinata smiles as well.
"I did too Naruto-kun," she says as she zips up her shirt.
(Underground ROOT Facility, Konohagakure)
Danzo sits on his throne, with his top three subordinates kneeling before him.
"Your mission is this: you are to hunt down Jiraiya the Gallant and Naruto Uzumaki AKA Kitsune Flash and bring them to me."
"Danzo-sama, if I may ask, why do we need to bring them alive? Can't we just kill them where they stand," asks Fu.
"Normally, I would make such order. But, the Akatsuki have asked that I present Naruto Uzumaki as a trophy and a sacrifice for Madara's resurrection.
"We will do as you please, Danzo-sama," says Torune before they leave. Danzo halts Sasuke.
"I will give you permission to kill one of the members on Naruto's team." The Uchiha smiles.
"My pleasure. I'll make sure that dobe knows how it feel to lose something," he says before leaving. "Now which member of his team should I kill?"
"Soon my reign as Hokage will be absolute," says Danzo looking over to the battered and unconscious body of Tsunade, tied up and gagged in a cage.
(Entrance to Amegakure)
Team Kitsune Flash and Jiraiya arrive at the gate of Amegakure, the Village Hidden in the Rain. The name was fitting as it was pouring rain constantly to the point where the entire village was on a lake.
"So this is Amegakure," says Sakura.
"Dang it! All this rain is going to mess up my hair," says Ino. The others sweat drop.
"I think your hair is the least you have to worry about, Ino," says Tenten, as they walk to the town. Jiraiya step forward.
"Hasen't changed at all," he says. Naruto looks to he master.
"So Pervy Sage, how much do you know about Amegakure?"
"A lot. Actually, I fought here during the Second Great Ninja War, along with Tsunade and Orochimaru."
"Did you fight any tough enemies," asks Hinata.
"I did, in fact. The main one I fought was the leader of Amegakure, Hanzo of the Salamander. He actually wiped out an entire Konoha platoon with his poisonous attacks." The others looked in shock.
"He was that strong," asks Sakura. "How did you beat him?"
"Pure luck," says Jiraiya. "Against his summoning Ibuse, we were back to a corner. Seeing that we were tough opponents and lasted longer than we did, he let us live and out of respect, he dubbed us 'The Legendary Sannin'." The others look in awe.
"Wow, so that's how you three became famous," says Tenten. "And I always thought you were just a huge pervert." Jiraya face plants as the others smirk.
"Just so you know, Sarutobi-sensei was just as worse as me," the Toad Sage remarks.
"Wait! The Third Hokage was a pervert?! That's hard to believe," says Ino. She knew that he was a very serious ninja.
"It's true. I actually knocked him out with my Sexy Jutsu plenty of times," says Naruto.
"You have to be kidding me," says Sakura. "He fell for that technique?"
"Plus, him and I went researching at Hot Springs so many times," says Jiraiya as they reach the city. "OK, here's the plan: we'll ask someone where Hanzo is and we'll ask for his help in locating the Akatsuki. After we find them, we'll propose a truce until we stop Danzo."
"I still can't believe we have to ask the Akatsuki for help," says Ino. Naruto looks to the platinum blonde and put his hand on her shoulder.
"Look Ino. I get the hate for the Akatsuki. After all, I'm their main target. But still, the enemy of my enemy is my friend. The Akatsuki could be the driving force to help us fight Danzo and Sasuke." They walk over to a little tea bar and sit down. The waitress walks by.
"How can I help you guys," she says.
"We'll take your most popular tea and 6 orders of dumplings," says Jiraiya.
"At once," says the waitress as she walks away. After 3 minutes, she brings the food by their table. "Here you go." She looks at Naruto in shock. "You're Kitsune Flash, Konoha's top mercenary. What brings you here to Amegakure?"
"We're here to speak with your leader," says Naruto.
"So you have business with Pain-sama?" The others stare in bewilderment.
"Isn't the leader of Amegakure Hanzo," asks Sakura. The waitress looks in shock.
"You didn't know? Hanzo died a long time ago and Pain-sama took over."
"I see," says Jiraiya. "We'll just speak with this Pain. Where can we find him?"
"He lives in that building over there." She points to a tall building a couple miles away. "There he lives with the Angel, his most trusted ally."
"Thanks for the help," says Naruto as he put 5,000 ryo on the table before leaving the bar.
"So, Hanzo is dead and this Pain is the leader," says Ino.
"Then we'll go find Pain," says Hinata as they head towards the building, unknown they were being watched.
"So Jiraiya-sensei has returned and he's brought Team Kitsune Flash with him," says the figure. "Then we'll lead them to us."
(Land of Fire Border)
Fu, Torune, and Sasuke dash through the forest looking for traces of Naruto and his group.
"Where are they," wonders Torune. Sasuke uses his Sharingan to try and find their chakra signatures.
"I sense residual chakra in this direction. They seem to be a ways ahead, but they're close," he says as they head forward.
"I can't to get my hands on those mercenary scum bags," says Fu.
"Don't let your guard down," says Sasuke. "That dobe is different than before and I want to be the one to bring him in. Also, I want him to watch as I kill one of his teammates." The three ROOT ninja make their way out of the Land of Fire. "Just you wait Naruto. After I deal with you, I'll kill that worthless mother of yours."
(Pain's Building, Amegakure)
Team Kitsune Flash and Jiraiya walk up to the building and enter.
"Be alert," says Naruto. "We don't know who could be watching from the shadows" They walk deeper into the building before reaching a big room, that the door seals shut.
"Crap! We're trapped," says Sakura as she gets into a fighting stance. The others stand ready to fight before they hear a voice.
"Welcome Team Kitsune Flash and Jiraiya-sensei," says the voice.
"Sensei? You have another pupil," asks Tenten. A figure steps out into the open. The others look in shock to see a women with blue hair and an Akatsuki robe.
"It's you. Konan," says Jiraiya. "I see you've gotten more beautiful than before."
"And you're still the same pervert as before," Konan says with a mysterious tone.
"Who is this girl, Pervy Sage," asks Naruto.
"One of three war orphans I took in after the Second Ninja War. Although I had heard they died."
"She's an Akatsuki," says Hinata as she gets into her Gentle Fist stance.
"So, why have you Konoha scum come here? Let me guess, Danzo wants you to kill us?" The others look in shock.
"Danzo? You think we work for him," says Sakura.
"Don't play with me! Danzo has influenced so many people! Now, tell us why you're here?!" Naruto steps up.
"Easy. We aren't here to fight. We're here to ask for your help to stop Danzo." Konan looks to the blond Jinchuuriki.
"Naruto Uzumaki, the Kyuubi's Jinchuuriki. So you've come to ask for help from us?"
"Yes. Look, the Akatsuki aren't my favorite people. But I think that through an alliance, we can stop Danzo's plot." Konan looks to the Konoha ninja.
"So you think that an alliance will erase all the villainy that Konoha has done to us?" Ino scoffs.
"Enough of this! Do you want to fight or not?!"
"Ino! Calm down," says Sakura. Konan smirks.
"You think you could take me, little girl?" A vein pops on Ino's head.
"LITTLE GIRL?! That's it! I'mma kill this bitch!" Sakura, Hinata, and Tenten hold Ino back.
"Ino-san please," says Hinata. "This won't accomplish anything." Suddenly, a different voice sounds.
"So, the Kyuubi steps into my domain." They look as another figure steps up beside Konan, who bows.
"Pain. What shall we do?" The others look in shock.
"That's Pain," says Naruto. Jiraiya notices the ripple pattern of his eyes.
"Those eyes. The Rinnegan?"
"It's been a while, Jiraiya-sensei," says Pain.
"So, you must the leader of the Akatsuki. I must say I'm shocked that you've become like this, Nagato. But why do you look like Yahiko?" The orange haired leader looks to his former master.
"There was a fellow named that, but he died a long time ago," says the man known as Nagato. Jiraiya looks in shock.
"Yahiko is dead?"
"What are you saying, Pervy Sage? Who is this guy," asks Naruto.
"Those eyes belong to another student of mine named Nagato. However, the body is that of his friend Yahiko."
"How does that work," asks Tenten in shock.
"These eyes have given me the power of a god, and with them, I will bring true peace to this world," says Pain.
"Look Pain! Why is Konoha so villainous in your eyes," asks Sakura. "What did we ever do to you?"
"It was Konoha that killed my parents and my friend." The others look in shock. "You waged war on our village and we had to struggle to survive." The Konoha ninja look to the Akatsuki leader.
"Pain, I'm sorry that your life was filed with loss, but kidnapping Jinchuuriki and killing them isn't the way to true peace. Join us so we can stop Danzo," says Naruto. Pain sports an indifferent look on his face.
"Why should we team up with the same village that wrought destruction upon us," says Konan.
"Very well." The Konoha ninja and Konan look in shock as Pain jumps down. "I will join you, but only if you defeat me." Ino scoffs.
"Kitsune-sama could beat anyone here." Pain smirks.
"Is that so? Then how about we up the stakes?" Suddenly, 5 figures jumped down to join Pain's side. All of them had orange hair and Rinnegans. "Behold, the Six Paths of Pain. Beat all 6 of them and we'll work with you. Lose and I will kill all of you."
"Deal," says Naruto. "If it will knock some sense into you."
To be Continued.
There we have it guys! The beginning of a fateful battle. Will Naruto win Pain over, or will Pain kill them all? Review and PM me. Any rude and hateful comments will be ignored/reported. Next time, Know Pain. Everybody, Clap your Hands.
