NaruHina: Tales of the Shinigami

-chapter 14-

"Speech"

'Thought'

Jutsu/Kido

Naruto went into Hinata's room, which was his room also, since they both occupied the room, and found that Hinata was not only up, but she was fixing the room.

"Do you feel better, Hinata-chan?"

"Oh yes Naruto-kun…I've gotten much better since last night."

"What concerns me is how you got sick, when occupants of Soul Society usually don't get sick."

Minato entered the room. "It's true that Shinigami don't usually get sick, the chances to get sick are one in one thousand."

"Oh ok."

"Arigatou Otou-san, now get out of my room!"

"Why? Am I intruding?"

"No…but you will be!"

"OK, fair enough. I'll get out of your hair for now…oh before I forget, I believe that Jiraiya was looking for you, something about a DVD about two girls going at it."

"I have no idea what you are talking about…" 'How did ero-sennin get a hold of this information?'

Minato stepped out of the room, finally.

"Hinata, are you well enough for some sexual activity?"

"Only if Yuki-chan was participating."

"Fine…should I Hengei nto her, or should I have a shadow clone do that?"

"Either one is fine."

"All right then!"

While Naruto and Hinata were having fun, Uchiha Itachi was bored.

'Nothing at all! No Hollow, Arrancar, or Espada!' Itachi's mental rant was cut short as Itachi detected a strong reiatsu signature that strongly reminded him of snakes.

'The hebi-teme…finally some fun!' Itachi went out to face Orochimaru.

"Orochimaru!"

"Ah, Itachi. You will pay for what you did to me!"

"What did I do?"

"You demoted me! I was Espada number 5, but you became that, demoting me to privaron Espada number 105."

'That wasn't me…it must have been my Yin!'

"Kū no Tachi, Kusanagi no Tsuragi!" Orochimaru opened his jaws and a snake protruded from his mouth. The snake opened up its jaw, and a sword was revealed. When the hilt was showing, Orochimaru grabbed it.

Itachi drew his Zanpakutou from his waist, and helf it slanted, pont facind directly above and in front of him. "Come!"

Itachi and Orochimaru met head on. Itachi fought hard, but discovered that he was at a disadvantage. Steeling himself, Itachi said, "Blaze with Glory, Fenikkusu Kaen Guntou!"

Itachi's Shikai was the worst opponent for Orochimaru's Shikai, since Itachi's Fenikkusu Kaen Guntou's blade was radiating so much heat that it nullified Orochimaru's abilities.

"Take this! Katon: Hōsenka no Jutsu!" Itachi spat out multiple fireballs from his mouth, but because of Fenikkusu Kaen Guntou, the fireballs became blazing phoenixes that were able to seek out their target, Orochimaru.

"Enton: Hōsenka no Jutsu!" Jet black blazing phoenixes collided with hebi-teme, burning him. "Ahhh!"

In a rare show of emotion, Itachi laughed, because literally, Orochimaru's pants were on fire! With Itachi's Doujutsu, he captured Orochimaru in a jutsu, Tsukuyomi.

"This is the world of Tsukuyomi. Here, I control time and space. For the next seventy two hours, you will be burned by the jet black Amaterasu flames, and feel every moment of the agonizing pain, which means that you can't die while being burned."

Orochimaru screamed. Itachi smirked. After some time had passed, Itachi said.

"Seventy one hours, fifty nine minutes, and fifty nine seconds to go."

In the split second that Orochimaru was caught in Tsukuyomi, Itachi summoned Amaterasu and burned Orochimaru, both within Tsukuyomi and out of it. Orochimaru was in great pain when he snapped out of it, but then screamed louder and higher pitched. Itachi sweat dropped. 'What the…why is Hebi-teme screaming like a little girl?'

Orochimaru was burned alive, and suffered a slow and painful death. 'Finally!'

Sheathing his Zanpakutou, which resumed its normal appearance, Itachi walked away.

Just as Naruto and Hinata were finished having fun, Naruto received a message from Uchiha Sasuke, who barged into the room. "Taicho! I have some news you want to hear!"

"LEARN TO KNOCK NEXT TIME!"

Sasuke finally realized that both Naruto and Hinata were undressed.

"Uh bad timing?"

"YOU THINK! THAT'S IT! I'M CALLING YOUR MOTHER!"

Faster then Naruto could pull out his cell phone, Sasuke was gone. Naruto still called Mikoto anyway.

The doorbell rang at the Namikaze compound. Since only Naruto, Hinata, and himself were home, Sasuke decided to answer it, only to come face to face with Mikoto, who looked very pissed off, and holding the frying pan in her arms.

"Kuso!" Sasuke started running like mad. Mikoto of course, chased him. "THE ONLY THING THAT MAKES ME MADDER THEN BURNING DOWN MY FAVORITE TREE IS WALKING IN ON PEOPLE HAVING SEX!"

Sasuke ran into Naruto, and to his horror, Naruto had a fiery aura around him. Naruto and Mikoto started to chase him together. Sasuke almost escaped, but then ran into Hinata.

"Hakke Rokujūyon Shō!" As soon as Hinata was done with her attack, Mikoto and Naruto caught up, and proceeded to beat him…brutally.

'Can this day get any worse?'

"You had news for me?" Asked Naruto to a battered Sasuke.

"Hai."

"Well what is it?"

"Hebi-teme is dead."

"…"

"Naruto?"

"…"

"NARUTO?"

"…"

"Forget it, I'm going to go now."

"…"

Naruto was stuck in a daze, but he snapped out of it when his wife slapped him and kissed him.

"I can't believe it…the hebi-teme's dead."

"Yeah, it's unbelievable."

"Wonder who killed him?"

"I have no idea, but it must not have been one of ours, a Shinigami, because you never directed any orders to kill Orochimaru…"

'Must have been Itachi…' "At any rate, I'm glad that he's dead."

Itachi sneezed.

Uchiha Sasuke was back in Konoha. He wanted to know if Itachi killed Orochimaru.

"Hey aniki, did you kill Orochimaru?"

"I killed the hebi-teme, Orochimaru Why?"

"Oh no reason…just wondering."

"Sasuke, have you mastered Cero yet?"

"No aniki, I haven't been in Vizard form, so I haven't really been training for it…"

"Very well, I will teach you. Hollowfication!" Itachi mumbled, as he waved his hand over his face, to reveal his Vizard's mask, the weasel.

"Hollowfication!" Sasuke waved his own hand over his face, and the dragon-phoenix Vizard mask formed.

"To fire a Cero blast, you have to perfect your reiatsu control. You control your reiatsu the same way as you control your chakra."

"I already have good reiatsu control."

"Is that so? Let's test it. You can fire Cero blasts from any of your 4 finger, not counting your thumb. To use a Cero blast using your thumb, you have to partially make a fist, ensuring that your thumb is tucked it. You can then charge a Cero blast. To release it, just thrust it forward."

"Hai. Cero!"

To Itachi's surprise, a weak Cero blast shot out of his otouto.

"Pretty good, for a beginner."

"Oh I haven't even got started! Cero!"

Sasuke made a Cero, but it wasn't shooting out. Itachi was just about to stop him when Sasuke said. "Chidori!"

The Cero became piercing and electrified. Sasuke then tried to shoot it out, but it had no effect. He then charged forward, the Cero Chidori in his hand. Unfortunately, Itachi had no idea what the Cero Chidoricould do, so he played it safe by using Kawarami no Jutsu, and good thing he did, because the electrified Cero pierced through his body like a hot knife through butter.

*whistles* "Impressive, Sasuke."

"Thanks, aniki."

"We are done here."

"OK, deHollowfication!"

Itachi did the same. "Now, you want to spar?"

"Sure thing."

"Very well then…come!"

Naruto went to see a certain white haired Shinigami. 'I wonder how Toshiro's doing?' Naruto walked into division 10's barracks, and asked a passing Shinigami. "Do you know where I could find Hitsuga+ya-taicho?"

"Naruto-taicho…right this way."

Naruto followed the Shinigami to Toshiro's office.

"Ah Naruto…what can I do for you?" Toshiro asked as his shadow clones were working.

"It's been a while since we last fought. Do you want to spar?"

"Sure, just let me grab Hyorinmaru…"

Naruto leaded Toshiro to a training area in the Namikaze backyard. The training area was in fact, a little arena. "Wow, Naruto, you sure have been busy."

"Thanks, but my dad built it. Now shall we begin?"

"Hai." Toshiro unsheathed his Zanpakutou from his back and held it in front of him. The sheath dissolved into water. Naruto summoned his Zanpakutou like he would summon his Key Blade, out of nowhere. Toshiro and Naruto traded blows. "Hakke number 4: Pale Lightning Strike!"

'Naruto learned some new tricks. Well two can play at that game!' Toshiro thought, as he dodged rolled to the side.

"Hakke number 33: Pale Fire Crash!"

Naruto countered with another Kido. "Hakke number 31: Red Fire Burst!"

The two Kido canceled each other out. "You are stronger then before…"

"Yeah."

"But now, it's over! Sit upon the Frosted Heavens, Hyorinmaru!"

"At last! Now I can go serious! Awaken, Hikari-Hime!"

'Impossible! He's even holding back!' Thought Toshiro.

'Maybe now, he'll go serious.'

Toshiro held Hyorinmaru in front of himself, and whispered "Bankai…"

Naruto stood by, Hikari-Hime in a defensive position.

"Daiguren Hyorinmaru!" Toshiro took to the skies. "Sennin Hyoro!" (Thousand Year Ice Prison)

Naruto looked around, as a few ice pillars rose around him, and collapsed on him.

'Naruto was easier then I thought.'

"Sennen Goroshi!"Naruto said, as he made a tiger seal and launched Toshiro into the air.

'Then again…' Thought Toshiro as he grabbed his butt in pain. 'Wait a second…why did that work? My dragon aura should have frozen his hands…' Toshiro looked, and indeed, Naruto's hands were frozen solid.

"Hakke number 31: Red fire burst!"Naruto's Kido melted the ice around his hands. "Bankai!"

As Toshiro slowly descended, Naruto emerged.

"Awaken, Master Form, Hikari-Hime."

As Toshiro ascended, Naruto held one Keyblade up into the air.

"Disaster!" Toshiro dodged it by ascending.

"Oh no you don't!" Naruto shouted as he leaped into the air. His dormant Valor Drive allowed him to jump high into the air. A spiraling ball of chakra was in his hand. "Take this! Rasengan!"

Toshiro, on instinct, closed his wings. The Jutsu grinded through it, but Toshiro was gone.

'What? Where did he go?'

"Ryusenka!" (Dragon Hail Flower)

Narutto was stabbed, and frozen solid. Too bad it was a shadow clone. The real Naruto was on the ground. " Bunshin Diabakuha."

BOOM

The frozen Naruto exploded. The shockwave of the explosion sent the unprepared Toshiro plummeting into the ground. On the ground, Naruto was standing with the ball of spiraling chakra in his hands, standing directly under Toshiro.

"Rasengan!" Naruto bellowed as his Jutsu made contact with Toshiro, only for Toshiro to recover at the last instant and ascend again. Toshiro made some hand signs, ending on bird.

"Suiton: Suiryundan no Jutsu!"

One of Toshiro's three flowers dissolved into a torrent of water which formed into a water dragon that spit out a large water projectile.

'Kuso!' Thought Naruto as he was hit, only to reveal another shadow clone.

'A shadow clone! Fine!'

Toshiro made some more hand seals.

"Suiton: Daibakufu no Jutsu!"

'Another water jutsu? Where did he learn these Jutsu?'

Naruto leaped in the air, as Toshiro once again made hand seals.

"Suiton: Suigaden!"

Water spikes surrounded Naruto and impaled him. Luckily, Naruto escaped using Kawarami no Jutsu.

Toshiro was the victor, barely. Naruto, exhausted, asked him. "Where did you learn all these water Jutsu, and why did you only use three?"

Toshiro answered. "I can only use water jutsu when I'm in Bankai form, and I have a limit of three because I have three water flowers behind me." 'Although I can regenerate my flowers as long as there is moisture in the air…' "These water Jutsu were written in a scroll and left for me by Hoshigaki Kisame and Uchiha Itachi, before they both betrayed us."

"Not quite. Both Kisame and Itachi are innocent. It was Uchiha Madara, Espada number 1, who framed them."

Naruto began to explain what happened.

"I see…both Itachi and Kisame are innocent. Madara hypnotized them both, but Itachi was able to resist, splitting himself in two, Yang, the side unaffected to Madara, and Yin, who succumbed to Madara's hypnotism. Meanwhile Kisame turned on Soul Society Itachi is currently in hiding, right?"

"Yeah, that's it in a nutshell."

"You now have my support of beating the Espada, especially number 1."

"I'm afraid…that you would only be able to serve as a distraction. Only when Hinata uses a certain power can we damage him."

"I see, well I have to get back."

"Fine, oh and why do you care about Kisame and Itachi so much?"

"Because…Kisame is my best friend."

"I see…for future reference, in our spar, I was holding back. If I had gone all out, you would have been killed."

"I know, thanks for not killing me."
