(Hey guys, here is the next part. I don't own anything)

Back in Konoha

Things weren't looking good for the guys. They had been fighting Goku for what seemed to be an eternity, and had yet to even land a single punch. Currently they were all standing a good few yards away from Goku trying to catch their breath, while Goku was just standing there with his arms cross looking somewhat disappointed.

"awh come on guys, you can't be tired already we just started" Goku whined as he saw all three of the boys bent over breathing heavily.

"What is he talking about? We have been going at this pace for nearly an hour. He just won't quit, man this is such a drag." Shikamaru thought to himself. For the young genius this entire situation was completely frustrating. He had tried numerous times to come up with a strategy to get the bells but this guy was just too fast and too strong for any of them to work. And to top it all off he still had no idea what any of this guys weaknesses where. Usually an opponent would slip up somewhere and make a mistake that could be exploited against but so far neither Shikamaru nor Neji had found any. Sure Naruto had had a few ideas but all they did was prove that he really no talent in strategies. This whole thing was starting to give him a headache.

"Hey guys I have another idea" Naruto suddenly chimed in.

"No offence Naruto but I think we have had enough of your ideas for today" Neji said

"No I'm serious I can take him out with one hit if you two can just distract him for me"

"And just how do you plan on doing that?" Shikamaru asked skeptically raising an eyebrow.

"You'll see just distract him ok"

"(sigh) alright Naruto we'll give it a try" Shikamaru said.

"Thanks Shikamaru"

"Are you sure this is a good idea?" Neji asked doubtfully.

"Yeah why not besides this gives me a chance to try one of my new techniques" he snickered as he grabbed a handful of explosive tags from his pouch and threw them into the air. "Ninja art shadow explosion jutsu" he said as several dozen shadow tentacles began to fly up from his feet puncturing all of the tags that he had just thrown into the air. After that was done they all did a loop and shot right for where Goku was standing.

"What the heck is that?" Goku asked as the mass of shadow and bomb flew at him before the tags went off. As predicted though Goku managed to get away before the tags detonated and teleported right behind Shikamaru and Neji.

"Man you guys really like using explosives don't you? But I will say that it makes you attacks original" Goku said.

"How did he…?" Neji and Shikimaru thought before all three of them felt the wind begin to pick up in the direction Naruto was standing. At the moment he had two clones on either side of him charging what looked like an odd looking rasengan.

"Now I've got you!" Naruto yelled as the two clones vanished "My ultimate Justsu the Rasen Shuriken!" he yelled lifting his hand into the air to reveal a large spinning vortex of chakra.

"What in the world is that? I've seen Naruto do his rasengan before but that thing looks much different and has a much higher concentration of chackra in it. If he isn't carful he could end up hurting himself more than anyone else" Shikamaru thought to himself as he looked at the spinning ball in Naruto's hand.

"Now take thi…" He said as he began to charge. But he was stopped in mid move by Kakashi as he poofed from out of nowhere and grabbed Naruto by the arm making him cancel the jutsu.

"Sorry Naruto but you know good and well that, that jutsu is forbidden." He said calmly while still giving his former student a stern look.

"Aw come on Kakashi sensei it's not fair to interrupt a fight like that." He whined as Kakashi let go of his arm.

"Well it doesn't really matter anyway. Your time is up"

"(sigh) thank goodness" Shikamaru said as he fell backwards onto his back and cast his gaze onto the clouds in the sky. "This whole thing was way too much work anyway".

"Well I think it's safe to say that you all failed in the sparing match. But since it was only a practice fight I guess you all get away with just the bumps and burses" Kakashi said as the girls began to walk in the direction of the guys. "We're done for the day feel free to leave. But don't forget that we leave first thing tomorrow morning so get some rest." Kakashi said as he began to walk away (taking his book out of course).

"Sakura I think out of all the sensei you have one of the weirdest ones" Ino whispered to the pinkette.

"(sigh) tell me about it." Sakura responded as she dropped her head.

"Well I'm just glad that's over" Naruto sighed.

"Aw come on it wasn't that bad and you guys all did better than I thought you would" Goku said trying to sound as encouraging as possible.

"Oh Goku before I leave I was wondering what are you doing later tonight?" Kakashi asked.

"Huh well nothing I guess why?" Goku asked scratching his head.

"Well being that you are new here and you are going to be kind enough to train some of our villages shinobi I thought it only good manners to treat you to dinner before our training starts" he said with another one of his patented eye smiles.

"Really I would love to!" Goku said as pictures of his favorite food flashed through his head.

"Alight I will see you later then" Kakashi said as he turned to leave again.

"Hey Kakashi sensei can I come to?" Naruto chimed in excitedly hoping to score a free meal.

"Sorry not this time Naruto" Kakashi said simply.

"Aw why not?"

"Because you have been training and you need your rest, besides were not going to the ramen shop so I doubt you would be interested" Kakashi said with a shrug.

"Hump fine" Naruto said now completely cheesed off.

"Awh what's the matter is the big shinobi sad about being left out?" came a feminine voice from behind Naruto that made his skin crawl. It was a voice he had only heard a few times but it was one that always made him nervous.

"Oh no please tell me it's not her" he thought as sweat began to pore from his head. He slowly started backing up, trying to get away before the person the voice belonged to caught up to him.

"What aren't you even going to say hello to your favorite special jounin?" the voice asked as she put him in a playful headlock making Naruto's entire body go rigid. "I haven't seen you in over two years and this is the greeting I get? I'm hurt" Naruto took big gulp before he began to turned his head, only to be greeted by the pouting face of the craziest purple haired kunoichi in the entire village, Anko Mitarashi. As soon as he saw that it was her he immediately (and spastically) broke away from the head lock, fell flat on his butt and quickly scouted a good few feet away from her.

"Wha-wha-wha-what the heck are you doing here?" He yelled pointing and shaking all at the same time.

"Now is that any way to greet me? I thought that somewhere you would have at least picked up a few manners. Oh well I guess I will just have to teach you some myself wont I?" she said as a sadistic smile spread across her face making Naruto shake even more.

Kakashi chuckled mentally as he turned and saw what was going on. He had to admit it was pretty funny watching Naruto nearly wet himself at the sight of the older purple hair kunoichi, even though he knew that the loud mouthed blond would be going on about being tortured by her again for at least the next couple of days. He then cast his gaze back to Anko who seemed to be having a little too much fun making Naruto sweat. Not that he could really talk, since he too liked to scare Naruto, Sakura and Sasuke when they were younger. Thankfully though he knew that even though Anko had a reputation for her torture techniques, she wouldn't go too far with Naruto. He had gotten to know her a bit after his gennins first chunin exams. Originally he just wanted help with dealing Sasukes curse mark, but when Anko found out he knew of a counter seal to the curse mark she almost forced him to put it on her as payment for her help. In the end he had to get Kurinai to help put the markings on her while he only did the sealing portion, for the simple reason that he didn't want to be castrated if he let his eyes wander too much on her unclothed body. But in the end it had worked and since then she has been a bit more manageable and overall happier. They both had even gone on some missions together and have since then become pretty good friends. He suddenly popped out of his thoughts when he heard Naruto scream again. Apparently he had tried to run and Anko now had him pinned up against a tree by several snakes coming out of her trench coat. The one eyed ninja sighed and decided it was time to intervene.

"Anko don't you think that the snakes are a bit much?" Kakashi asked as he walked over getting the kunoichis attention.

"Hey there cyclops, no I don't think this is too much, you know I can do a lot worse than this especially after that fun mission to the Tea country last month." She said with a grin before releasing the panicked blond.

"Yes well…" he said trying not to remember that particular mission "not that I'm not glad to see you or anything but what are you doing here?" He asked as Naruto scampered away to hide behind Goku who really wasn't paying attention to his predicament and was still thinking about food.

Anko shrugged "I was at the Hokage tower when I heard all the ruckus going on out here so I decided to check it out. And from the looks of this place you guys where having one heck of a fight. I'm just hurt that you didn't invite me, you know how much I like a good brawl." She said with a fake pout on her face.

"Or did you just come out here because you wanted to get out of doing one of the Hokage's errand mission again?" he asked smiling.

"…No of cores not, whatever gave you that idea?" she asked with a fake laugh while waving her hand in front of her face "man I hate it when he does that" she thought to herself.

"Well regardless you're a little late, we just finished."

"What already (sigh) oh well guess I have to catch you guys next time. By the way the Hokage mentioned that you where given a new trainer, where is he" she questioned looking around.

"Yeah we do he is standing right over there" Kakashi pointed behind her. Goku was still standing in the same position he was when Kakashi had first mentioned food, even drooling a bit.

"Hey Goku!" Kakashi yelled making Goku snap out of his trance.

"Huh what, did I miss something?" Goku asked a bit dazed.

"Did you miss something?" Naruto yelled. "You mean you didn't see that phyco nearly kill me?" he asked getting a confused look from the spiky haired warrior.

"What are you talking about?" He asked innocently only to see Naruto throw his arms in the air and walk away grumbling about stupid people and crazy women.

"Don't worry about it Goku, he gets like that sometimes." Kakashi said as he and a shorter purple haired woman walked up to him. "Anyway I just wanted to introduce you to someone" he said "this is Anko Mitarashi. Anko this is Goku"

"So you're the new trainer huh?" She asked looking him over.

"Yep that's me" Goku said smiling.

"Hmm interesting. So what are you guys doing now that you're done training?" She asked.

"Well actually the training hasn't even started yet. This was just a friendly spar, the real training starts tomorrow" Kakashi told her.

"Yeah and Kakashi is treating me to dinner tonight" Goku added energetically.

"Oh really that's oddly generous of you Kakashi what's going on?" Anko asked inquisitively, crossing her arms and cocking one eyebrow.

"Nothing why do you ask?" Kakashi asked back as calmly as ever.

"Oh no reason it's just that last I heard Gai had challenged you to another one of his competitions tonight and I think you are just looking for a good excuse to get out of it again."

"Well even if I was what difference does that make to you?" Kakashi asked again still not fully answering the question.

"I just think that if I were to tell Gai that his greatest rival is trying to get out of a match with him for the fourth time this week he may flip out, track you down and harass you until you caved in. But…I'm not going to" Anko finished with a smirk.

"Oh really?" Kakashi asked surprised.

"Nope,because I'm going to dinner with you two. I kinda ran out of money due to my dumpling obsession and a free meal sounds perfect to me. Besides it's the only way to keep me from telling Gai and everyone knows how much you like him dogging you all day so I think this is a fair trade. See you two later." She said before jumping away.

"Huh well she seemed nice" Goku said as innocently as usual.

"Yeah about as nice as a conniving barracuda" Kakashi thought to himself "Oh well looks like it couldn't have been helped anyway" he sighed.

"Well I guess I should get going, I have to make sure everything is ready for tomorrow. Oh hey everybody!" Goku called back before everyone headed home "Just to let you guys know you may want to bring a few changes of cloths for tomorrow"

"What for, were only going to be gone for three days aren't we?" Sakura questioned.

"Well…yes and no. Just trust me on this one. Ok I think that's everything I have to tell you guys for now, so I guess I'll pay Vegeta another visit. See you guys later" Goku waved as he put his fingers on his forehead and disappeared.

"Well that was odd" Shikamaru said.

"You could act a little more surprised yah know. The guy just disappeared into thin air!" Ino said spastically.

"Well in retrospect it's not any stranger than half of the other things he has been doing" he shrugged as he began to walk off.

"Give it up Ino, I think he's too zoned out to be amazed by much at this point." Sakura said.

"Yeah I guess you're right. So…what are you doing for the rest of the afternoon?" Ino asked with a sinister look on her face.

"Nothing…why?" she answered cautiously.

"Great cause you're going to help me come on" Ino said as she grabbed Sakuras arm "Hey Hinata wait up!"

"Y-yes Ino what is it" Hinata asked in her usual timid tone.

"Sakura and I have discovered your problem and are here to help"

"Problem…wh-what problem?" Hinata asked obviously confused.

"I'll explain everything later come on" She said as she grabbed Hinata by the arm and took off dragging both kunoichies behind her.


In a hidden cave

"So what do we do about them?" a grey eyed cloaked figure asked.

"Their addition into this group is irrelevant once we have located the remaining containers our mission will be complete" another says in a monotone voice.

"It might be but I heard a rumor that someone has been removing the containers from their village systematically." Another said in a rough scratchy voice.

"Who?" one with grey eyes asked

"According to my informant it's Jiraiya of the legendary sannin"

"Then your informant is mistaken. I killed him with my own hands a few weeks ago"

"Well you must have missed, here is a photo of him in the land of lightning yesterday" the rough voiced man said as he tossed a photo at the leader.

"Well, well my old master must have had one more trick up his sleeve after all" he thought to himself "If this is truly the case we need to increase our efforts in obtaining the containers. Zetsu what information do we have on these three that have caused such a stir?"

"They seem to be three separate men attacking villages in the stone, lightning and water countries. They are described as one very large bald man, one very long haired man, and one that usually is seen wearing a white cape. According to a report in the earth country the bald one destroyed a platoon of rock shinobi and destroyed an entire town simply by raising two fingers. Other villages have reports resembling the same devastation." Zetsu finished.

"If they are really that strong they may be of help to us given that our numbers have died off quite a bit lately." A man wearing an orange swirly mask said

"Very well then, given that these men are strong I want Tobi, Itachi, and Kisame to intercept these men one at a time and get them to join us. Zetsu will continue to search for more of the containers. Top priority right now is obtaining the containers; if one is found obtain it first understood." They all nodded "Then go"

(There you go, hoped you liked it. Please review and tell me how I'm doing. Also I just want to clear something up that I should have mentioned last time. In the last chapter when Zain called Tahki a low level he wasn't referring to her class rank like the original sayains did. When Vegeta reinvented the sayain race he got rid of that and started training them in power increase training (the same training he and Goku underwent to increase their power, making the ranks irrelevant). Even with this switch however, some sayains still use the term as a very demining insult. That is why Zain called her that. If anything is still unclear just let me know and I will make it more clear)
