AN* as always R&R and enjoy.
Reunion
It took all of the next day to arrive at the town where Tsunade was supposed to be.
"So what's the plan?" Setsuna asked.
"Well long distance searching is out since I don't know what to look for with the byakugan, or you with the sharingan. So if we can get a general location than we stand a chance of tracking her down." Kenshi explained.
"Right. Now Naruto, this training is a technique that your father developed, if I can't help you than Kenshi will since he has already mastered this." Jiraya explained as he began the first stage of the lesson. Once Naruto was in place, with dozens of clones working on the technique the rest walked off to search. That night Naruto met up with them at the hotel room saying how he had mastered the first stage of the technique and that he was ready for the next stage.
The next day Kenshi stayed and explained to Naruto what to do while he taught Haku all of the new Koriton jutsu that he had been creating and bounced ideas off of her about others that they should work on when suddenly there was a loud pop. Turning they saw that Naruto had managed to destroy the rubber ball and was laying flat on his back with a shocked look on his face.
"NARU-KUN!" Haku shouted as she ran over to check on him, wrapping him in a hug and squeezing him tightly.
"Haku-kun. I am fine." Naruto gasped.
"Haku, release." Kenshi chuckled as the girl finally let the blonde go.
"Well, that was very…impressive. Now all that's left is the last stage." Naruto grinned as Kenshi tossed him the air filled balloon.
"Well here it is. Now all you have to do is to replicate the same thing that you did with the ball, without destroying the balloon." Kenshi grinned "Since you reached this stage you can now search with us." With that the three walked off into the town when Kenshi felt chakra being released and with a nod to the other two they ran up to the castle that had suddenly been destroyed and arrived in time to see Orochimaru and Kabuto facing a blonde woman with a massive rack, and a black haired girl that seemed to be her assistant.
"Haku. Try out that new jutsu." Kenshi whispered as he and Naruto started one of their own.
"Koriton: Kori no Hari no Arashi (Ice Needle Storm)" Haku shouted.
"Sunaton: Suan no Yari (Sand Spear)" Naruto exclaimed.
"Arashiton: Uzumaku Arashi (Swirling Tempest/Storm)" Kenshi roared.
With that the three jutsu shot off, Haku's sending hundreds of ice needles stabbing the ground that the two sound nin had been standing on, as Naruto's sand spear grazed by Orochimaru's head, and Kenshi's sending bursts of lightning, ice, wind, and water at the two fleeing men.
"Well that was impressive." The black haired woman noted as the three of them landed in front of them.
"Tsunade-sama?" Kenshi asked looking at the blonde.
"Yes, and who are you?" she asked clearly annoyed.
"Kenshi, Kenshi Namikaze." He nodded as he saw her eyes widen "Myself and my team have been sent here with a request from the Sandaime Hokage."
"What request does my old sensei have?" Tsunade asked.
"He requests that you return to Konaha. As you know Orochimaru has vowed that he will end Konaha, and now that he leads Oto, it is well within his grasp with the right allies. The Hokage would like you to return and aid us in the soon to be troubled times." Kenshi explained.
"That is quite the request." Tsunade remarked.
"I understand if you decide to say no." Kenshi nodded "However I would like to know what the snake wanted."
"For me to join him in Oto. He claimed that he could revive the two that I cared for the most." Tsunade whispered.
"I understand. However I will tell you this, if you do side with him than I will personally deal with you myself." Kenshi sighed.
"You think you can?" Tsunade laughed.
"Barely but yes. You saw that jutsu that I used, it was Arashiton. And that was only the tip of the iceberg." Kenshi grinned viciously as Jiraya and the rest of the search party arrived.
"Tsunade." Jiraya nodded.
"Jiraya." Tsunade nodded back "Why are we standing around here? Let's get to a bar and discuss this at length." With that they were all seated at a bar, with Haku and Natsumi sitting around Naruto while Shinku, Jiraya, and Tsunade talked at the bar, with Kenshi, Setsuna, and Tsunade's assistant Shizune sitting at a booth in the back drinking and telling stories until late in the night and they were kicked out where Naruto took out the balloon and started practicing the last stage while Tsunade laughed.
"You taught him that Jiraya? He will never learn it." She laughed.
"He only started this two days ago and has gotten this far." Haku snapped.
"Besides it is his inheritance." Kenshi laughed "He is my little brother and if I can master this than so can he." This shocked Tsunade who demanded that he prove it. With a shrug he held up his hand and the swirl of chakra appeared and created the entirely perfect rasengan.
"Satisfied?" Kenshi asked as they walked back to the hotel.
"How?"
"Jiraya taught me. Learned it in matter of hours." Kenshi grinned.
"That's impossible!"
"Not really. I was raised as a Hyuga so I know a lot about the chakra network and know exactly how far I can push mine, so with each level I mastered I figured out how to use the technique with the least amount of strain." Ending the conversation there Kenshi returned to his room that he shared with Naruto, Jiraya and Shinku where he immediately fell asleep.
In the girl's room Haku and Natsumi were whispering plans of how to seduce Naruto while Setsuna gave them pointers or suggested other things, while Tsunade slept and Shizune was turning red at the things that they were proposing.
"Isn't that a little extreme?" she asked.
"No." Haku replied.
"Haku has a marriage contract with Naruto, but Kenshi set up a one year of dating only so she is trying to make sure that things work out for her." Setsuna explained "Though I am amazed you aren't joining in, given the way you were staring at Kenshi-kun." This caused the medical Nin to turn bright red as the other two laughed.
"It's alright. You can tell us." Natsumi grinned.
"I will admit he is rather handsome…" she trailed off.
"More than that. He is a walking a god." Setsuna replied as she started to drool.
"Setsuna, you're doing it again." Haku laughed.
"That's not all is it?" Natsumi continued.
"Well he does seem nice, and the fact he isn't scared of Tsunade-sama is impressive."
"Kenshi isn't scared of anyone. He used to stare down S class rouges and make them flinch." Setsuna boasted.
"Really?"
"Did you ever hear about a person called "The Shadow"?" Haku asked.
"Yes. Tsunade-sama and I heard rumors about this person but we assumed it was just superstition."
"Not even close." Natsumi sighed.
"After the Uchiha massacre Kenshi left the village and began a training journey, and soon began hunting down rouge shinobi he was called the Shadow since no one ever saw him. He often donated most of the reward money that he received and the little he kept was only for travel expenses and repairs when necessary." Setsuna explained "He spent years hunting down rouges and establishing his information network, he even has spies in Oto now."
"That is incredible." Shizune whispered.
"He is one strong shinobi, but Naru-kun will be stronger." Haku smiled.
"I have to agree." Setsuna sighed.
"Why do you say that? Naruto is strong but Kenshi seems stronger." Shizune asked.
"Naru-kun is still young and is still learning, Kenshi always says that Naruto will surpass him." Natsumi replied as the conversation soon returned to seducing Naruto and now Kenshi as well.
The next day they made their way towards Konaha when Kenshi suddenly reacted, shoving Tsunade to the ground as two poison needles struck the ground. Using the byakugan Kenshi soon saw Kabuto moving behind a building.
"Well looks like the snake has made his move." Kenshi sighed "We need to get out of the village before things get bad." With a nod the group moved quickly and reached a large plain just as Orochimaru and Kabuto arrived.
"Hello Jiraya-kun." Orochimaru grinned.
"Orochimaru." Jiraya spat as he glared at his former comrade.
"By being with Jiraya-kun I assume you have made your choice Tsunade-kun." Orochimaru sighed.
"I have. I won't betray the village like you did." She spat as she took off the green coat she wore.
"Very well then. Kabuto, kill them." Orochimaru ordered as the Nin attacked the large group. Kenshi quickly held up to fingers, and with a nod from the rest of the Konaha team they took the positions as Kenshi used the byakugan to work through Kabuto's guard while dodging the medical Nin's glowing hands. As he fought Setsuna and Naruto completed the fire jutsu while Haku and Natsumi completed the wind one.
"Katon: Inferunoshotto (Inferno Shot)" Naruto and Setsuna said.
"Futon: Senpu Shotto (Whirlwind Shot)" Haku and Natsumi replied.
The two jutsus went flying at the pair of duelers but before they made contact Kenshi completed the escape jutsu and landed back near Naruto as the two jutsu collided with a thundering boom. Once the smoke cleared they saw that Kabuto was still standing, though a little charred. With a nod from Kenshi Naruto attacked, creating three shadow clones, each creating a rasengan and rushed the Oto-Nin. As soon as Naruto got close he destroyed two of the clones while the real one leapt behind him, smashing him in the back, the rasengan done perfectly sent him flying into a nearby boulder, causing him to lose consciousness. As they turned they saw that the three sanin had summoned their chief animal which Kenshi took as a sign to get away. Moving back a safe distance they watched as together Jiraya and Tsunade destroyed Orochimaru and his summon. After grabbing Kabuto Orochimaru fled making a comment that soon he would have the Sharingan at his disposal.
"Well that's not good." Kenshi sighed.
"No. It means that he will be going after Sasuke soon." Jiraya sighed. With those dark thoughts over shadowing their victory they made their way to Konaha where they knew Orochimaru had traps awaiting.
