I do not own Naruto. If I did Sasuke wouldn't be such a pain, Orochimaru would be dead, and Sakura would take her training seriously. Swords belong to The Maiden of the Bloody Rose. I just wanted something I could use. Sorry dude.
Chapter 21: Family negotiations and…a new fiancé?
The walk home had been uneventful. Since the ride was quiet everyone pretty much spent the time talking and getting to know one another.
The team learned about the girls and their mystery sensei.
Scorpion, as it turns out, used to be a ninja himself. He was born in fire country to a prestigious and powerful clan. His enemies were a clan of ice users that reminded Naruto of his late friend Haku. He said htat the clan was at such a war with one another that eventually they killed each other. All but him and his arch rival. A man named Sub Zero.
Azula was the daughter of a war lord up in iron country. As such she had learned to fight at a young age. Her fire affinity was so strong that the fire was a pure blue form instead of the normal red. Her parents were killed when a traitor in the war lord's home rigged it to explode. The only good thing that came from that was the fact that the traitor died as well. Scorpion had been drawn to the explosion and offered to take her in. Azula accepted the offer.
Mai had been born into a rich family. With the life of luxury and privilege she grew increasingly bored. Out of boredom she taught herself how to use multiple long to mid range weapons. Her life at home ended when an assassin from some other family killed her parents. To avoid being married to the son who had pined after her for some time she left. Though she dropped her infant brother off at an orphanage with a fake identity to keep him safe. There were times when she wondered how it would have been if she brought her brother along with her. Anyway when she was on the edge of town she was nearly captured by bandits. Luckily Azula and Scorpion showed up. Azula and Mai formed a friendship and Mai joined the group.
Ty Lee was born into a rich family. Unfortunately she wasn't noticed very much so she acted out to get attention. It was also the reason behind her perky attitude. Eventually she ran away from home and met Scorpion and the two girls. From then on she wouldn't leave him alone saying that he needed someone to help bright up his normally dark aura. Eventually she grew onto Scorpion and h accepted into the group.
While everyone was talking naruto approached his sister.
"Hey Kira," Naruto asked, "What was that style you used in the fight?"Kira answered, "It was called the Rokushiki or six styles. It was something Orochi-teme gave before he died. It consists of six different parts. The first is Storm Leg in which you're able to kick so fast that you can form chakra blades. The second is Moon Step which allows you to launch yourself in mid air. Third is Iron Mass which can harden your body to withstand impacts, but it has its limits. The fourth is Shave which pretty much allows you to move at incredible speeds by stomping the ground multiple times all in an instant. The fifth is Paper Drawing which allows your body to go limp like paper to avoid attacks. The sixth is Finger Gun in which you can use your finger to pierce a person's body."Naruto was shocked the style sounded powerful and very interesting.
"Can you…teach it to me sis?" Naruto asked nervously.
Kira stopped for a minute and rubbed her chin in thought.
"I guess I could," the red head answered, "If you trade me."Naruto looked at his sister questionably and asked, "What do you mean trade?"Kira smirked at her brother and said, "I teach you the six styles of the Rokushiki…you have to get me six things in return. Does that sound fair?"Naruto raised an eyebrow and said, "I guess so. What do you want?"Kira thought for a minute and said, "I'll leave that to you. Oh and none of them are to be ramen based in any way."
Naruto mentally cursed and snapped his fingers in annoyance. The blonde then stepped away from his sister and started thinking of what to get his sister.
Meanwhile back in Konoha…
Tsunade was currently fighting off a major headache.
In front of her sat the Mizukage who was waiting for her answer.
"How do I know this isn't some ploy?" Tsunade asked the red head.
"I'm telling you the contract is legit," Mei said, "I just want to stay around and get to know him a bit."
Tsunade shook her head as she had a feeling that this was going to cause a few problems. Eventually the blonde kage sighed and said, "Okay…but if I find even the slightest hint that something is going wrong you are on the first trip back to Kiri."
Mei nodded in understanding. With that she picked up her suitcase and left the office.
'I have a bad feeling about this,' the blonde woman thought as she picked up a bottle of sake and chugged.
A while later…
"So this is Konoha," Scorpion said as the village walls came in sight, "I must admit that they seem very lax at the moment."
Tenzo looked at the yellow wearing man and said, "That is because there is nothing happening at the time. We are normally more on guard. Then again look at who we have guarding the gates this time."
The two guarding were a pair of chuunin named Izumo and Kotetsu.
When the group got close Tenzo cleared his throat making the two, most likely asleep, chuunin wake up.
"Identify yourself," Izumo said as he stood at attention immediately after realizing he had been caught sleeping on the job…again.
"Tenzo with team 7 and newly formed team 13 returned from an A-ranked mission."
Kotetsu noticed the others with them and said, "What are they doing with you?"Tenzo answered, "They are here to join the village of Konoha."
It was at that moment they noticed Itachi and Kisame and they visibly tensed.
"They are with us as well," Kakashi said noticing how they tensed at the sight of the missing nin, "They are willing to share information with us on the Akatsuki."
The two Chuunin looked skeptical for a moment before saying, "All right. We need you guys to hand in your weapons."
Scorpion went, "What?"
The guard sighed and said, "I'm sorry sir, but it's standard procedure."
Scorpion grumbled a bit and handed his sword over to the Chuunin. Mai handed over a rather large bag of throwing weapons while Azula and Ty Lee didn't do anything. Itachi handed over his katana and his other weapons while Kisame handed over Samehada. As soon as he spiked sword was in the Chuunin's grip the spikes receded making it look more like a club.
With that the group entered the village.
As soon as they arrived at the Hokage tower they found Tsuande asleep at her desk.
Naruto rolled his eyes and said, "I got it."
The whiskered boy made his way over to the sleeping woman and said, "Hey Baa-chan…have you been hiding sake behind your desk?"
Tsunade shot up and yelled, "GET AWAY FROM MY PRECIOUS!"
The busty kage realized what she had just done. She blushed bright red as Naruto and the others in the room chuckled. Mai and Azula had amused smirks on their face while Ty Lee was trying hide a fit of giggles behind her hand. Scorpion's eyes showed his amusement. Itachi's eyes showed amusement too, and Kisame just burst out laughing.
Tsunade recovered from her embarrassment and swung a punch at Naruto. The blonde simply ducked downward to avoid getting slammed in the face by a fist that could easily turn his brains to jelly.
Tsuande glared at the blonde for a moment and then turned to Tenzo.
"I take it the mission was a success?" she asked with a smile.
"The mission was a complete success," Tenzo said, "Two of the Akatsuki members are dead. Kisame and Itachi want to join the village for protection in exchange for the information they have on the Aktasuku while these four want to join the village.
Tsunade lookat Naruto and said, "You have knack for finding people to add to our ranks don't you Gaki?"
Naruto simply shrugged his shoulders.
"Now then," Tsunade said, "Who are you and what can you offer?"Scorpion answered, "My name is Scorpion. I can offer teachings in Fire jutsu and swordsmanship. My students here each have their own skills. Ty Lee is a taijutsu user and she knows the pressure points on the body like the back of her hand. Azula has an unnaturally high fire affinity, and Mai is a mid to long range specialist."
Tsunade rubbed her chin and said, "You do seem to have some impressive skills. Just sign these papers and you'll be added to our ranks."Scorpion and the three girls filled out the paper work.
"Naruto," Tsunade said as she stamped the papers with her seal, "They will be staying at your place since your place is the only house in Konoha big enough. You seem to acquire new housemates every few weeks. Also if one of them steps out of line…its on your head."Naruto blanched and said, "How is that fair?"
The blonde kage answered, "Think of it as payment for all the times you've called me Baa-chan."
Naruto growled at the woman slightly. It wasn't enough to bring out the ANBU, but it was enough to show that he was upset.
"Okay you guys lets go," Naruto said.
"Hold it you two," Tsuande said to Itachi and Kisame, "I want to have a word with you two."
With that Naruto and company left. Naruto took the new members to his place, Sakura and Sasuke went off to do couple things, Kakashi went to do….whatever it is a Kakashi does, and Tenzo…he went off to do whatever it does he does when no one is looking.
As Naruto and co. made their way to his place he said, "Okay let's lay a few ground rules. 1. You will only go in the jutsu library when I say so. 2. Stay away from my trophy room. 3. No raiding the fridge otherwise you'll be paying the grocery bill."
With that Naruto and the group arrived at the complex. Naruto sighed and said, "Finally home. Some time to relax."
Then there was a huge explosion coming from the training area in the complex. Naruto groaned out loud and said, "Why is it this always happens to me?"
The nine ran into the complex just in time to see Ten-Ten, Hinata, Anko, and Temari were all in battle stances with their clothes slightly burned while the Mizukage, Mei Terumi, was standing off in another direction.
The five girls all growled at each other and then converged kicking up a huge dust cloud. In front of Naruto was a five way cat fight. Naruto would have been into the thought if it wasn't for the fact that it was his fiances who were fighting and that they were doing it in the middle of his house.
"Girls knock it off!" Naruto yelled trying to get them to stop fighting.
The were to busy fighting to notice.
Naruto snarled and he release the genjutsu on himself reveal all six of his black fox tails. The blonde then launched all six tails grabbing each girl by the waists. They were they lifted up off the ground and then slammed hard on the ground with a resounding boom.
Naruto retracted his tails and growled, "Okay will someone tell me what is going on?"
Hinata pulled herself out of the ground with a grunt of pain and was about tot yell at Naruto when she saw the fox tails waving in the air. The other girls noticed this too.
Naruto soon realized what theyi were staring at and said, "Oh nuts."soon the ground shattering squeal of "Kawaii!" shook the ground around the village. Everyone looked up from what they were doing to see what had yelled.
Back with Naruto the girlls present, Karin and Kira included glomped the boy's tails stroking them affectionately. Lucky for Naruto the tails were pretty long so they had enough room to cuddle.
"So soft and furry," Hinata cooed as she rubbed against the soft black fur.
"I know," Anko said as she snuggled against hers.
Naruto let out a low growl and said, "Girls no that I'm enjoying having my tails petted, but could you please get off of me."
"Lucky brat," Kisame muttered.
The girls all pouted and reluctantly let go of the soft appendages. As they back off Anko cried out as a tail rubbed up against her butt.
"Sorry," Naruto said with an embarrassed grin, "That tail is a little perverted."
Anko smirked as she gave that tail a little extra pat before she walked over to the rest of Naruto's girlfriends.
"Now then," Naruto said as his tails turned back to their original length, "What is going on here?"
Anko regained her angry look and said, "This red headed bimbo over here just walked in and told us that you were engaged to her! Can you believe that?"
Naruto looked at the Mizukage and said, "Is that true?"
Mei scowled at the purple haired girl and said, "I am. This little piece of paper says so."Mei handed a paper to Naruto. Naruto felt his eyes shoot into the sky as he read it. It was an old betrothal contract signed by his grandfather Arashi Namikaze and Mei's father. Apparently the two tied to get a marriage between the up coming heir of the Namikaze clan (Naruto), and the heir to Terumi clan.
Naruto looked at the girls and said, "She's right. This is an old betrothal contract between our two clans. In other words we are engaged."
The four girls present glared at Mei who just grinned victoriously at them.
Naruto sighed at his girlfriends and his new bride and said, "Okay Mei my guess is you want to stay with us for the next few weeks to get to know me right?"
The red head nodded.
"Okay then," Naruto said, "Tell you what. Tomorrow night I'll take you girls all on a date. That way nobody feels left out of the fun."
The girls all looked at one another before nodding in agreement.
"Good," Naruto said, "Now then sis…I believe we have some important business to attend to."
Kira raised an eyebrow when she remembered what they had talked about on the way home.
"So you've decided what you wan to trade for the Rokushiki," Kira said with a smile.
Naruto nodded.
With that the blonde and his sister went into the main room.
Naruto and his sister approached a large table in the middle of the room. Kira reached into her bag and pulled out six scrolls and laid them on the table.
"Okay little bro," the red head woman said, "What do you have to trade?"Naruto looked at his sister and said, "Okay first I have two parts of the Santoryu style. I'll teach you Ittoryu and Nitoryu to add to your arsenal."Kira rubbed her chin and nodded.
"Next…I'll give you the basics on the Devil Leg technique," Naruto said, "Add that to the power behind a kick powered by your shave moves or the Moon step stuff and it'll hurt even more."Kira closed her eyes. She imagined herself superheating her foot and using a Shave technique. She imagined herself vanishing with a burning foot and then reappearing with incredible speed and slamming a high velocity and super heated limb. She smiled at the thought and nodded.
"Next two come from something I have." Naruto said as he focused chakra into his back.
There were multiple puffs of smoke and 14 swords were all stabbed into the ground.
On the left side was Heaven's Phoenix, Hunter's touch, and Heaven's Dove. With them was a light gold sword with a black handle with the picture of a leopards head at the bottom of the blade and the kanji for Angel's Wings. There was a sapphire sword with a black handle with the picture of a lizard's eye at the bottom of the blade and the Kanji for Dragon Fire at the bottom of the blade. A sword that had a blade that resembled stained glass with the kanji for Gentle Blade at the bottom of the blade with the picture of a butterfly on the bottom of the blade. The last sword had a black blade with a gold edge that had the picture of a lion's head on the bottom of the blade and the kanji for Brave Soul.
To the right Shadow Fox, and Storm Rage. With them was a sword with a pitch black blade that had a white Kanji for Shadow Hound at the bottom of the blade and the image of a sickly yellow round eye. A sword with an icy blue blade with the kanji for Frozen Fang with the picture of a fox at the bottom of the blade. Next was a black and red blade that had the kanji for Lava Roar that had the picture of a bear's paw print at the bottom of the blade. The next one had a dark brown blade that had the kanji for Earth Shaker and the picture of a boar's hoof print. The next was a black and bronze sword with the kanji for Roaring Hurricane and the picture of a Cheetah's paw print on the bottom of the blade.
"I offer you this," Naruto said, "From the swords of light and dark you can pick a summon to infuse it's chakra with your swords which will give you an extra kick and allow you to make up some new attacks."
Kira nodded her head vigorously at the thought of that.
"Now," Kira said happily, "What is the last thing you are going to give me now?"Naruto smiled and held up his hand. Soon a spinning ball of chakra appeared in his hand. The chakra suddenly started to turn red and a flam appeared in the middle of the ball and the technique started to give off a huge amount of heat.
"I'll teach you this," Naruto said, "How to create a full Rasengan."
Kira looked at the complete attack with a look of shock and happiness in her eyes. Her brother had completed their father's technique.
Up in heaven…
"That's my boy!" Minato yelled as he watched the negotiations.
Kushina giggled and said, "He took after the both of us. He got my energy and like for Kenjutsu and he got your creativity in techniques."A Hyuuga turned to the two and said, "Not to mention he's an even bigger ladies man then you were Minato."
Minato rolled his eyes before turning back to his children back in the mortal world.
Back in the normal world…
Kira was currently looking through Naruto's swords trying to figure out which summons that she wanted to use. After a few minutes of looking she picked up Dragon Fire and Roaring Hurricane.
"Interesting choice," Naruto said, "Any particular reason why?"Kira looked at the two swords and answered, "Well I have a fire and wind affinity. I think that these two would work the best with me."
Naruto smiled and said, "Good reasons. Now then do we have a deal?"the red head nodded and said, "I'll teach you the six styles of the Rokushiki, and I get the sword enhancements, Rasengan and Devil Leg training, and Ittoryu and Nitoryu."
Naruto smiled and resealed this swords back into his back before taking the two swords from his sister.
The two went out to the training area where Naruto placed some blood on both swords and yelled, "Summoning Jutsu!"
There were two huge puffs of smoke. When the smoke cleared it revealed two huge animals. There was a towering black bear that was littered with red scars. It also had thick claws, large teeth, and a bronze scarf around it's neck. The cheetah had golden fur with ebony spots littering her body. She had a white scarf around her neck with a pair of goggles on her head.
"What is going on?" the bear asked. Its voice was baritone and had a powerful feel to it.
"Naruto," the Cheetah asked, "why have you summoned us here? There are no enemies to fight."
Naruto looked up at the two summons and said, "My friends I have called you here so that you may give your blessings to my sister here."
The two summons looked at Kira who waved nervously.
The bear looked down at the girl and said, "What would you do with out power girl?"Kira answered, "I'll use it to help my brother protect his home and his friends. To slay those who are evil and unjust in this world."
The pair of summons looked at each other before nodding.
"Good idea," the bear said, "I'm glad to see that you aren't some arrogant little cub. Now then hold out your swords."
Kira held out her weapons. The bear and cheetah took deep breaths and mists of chakra came out of their mouths and wrapped around the swords. Slowly the swords changed in shape. When the chakra faded Kira felt her eyes widen at the sight of the blades in her hands.
The bear's chakra had turned her sword black with red scar like marks on it. The kanji for Burning Claws was written on the blade.
The cheetah's chakra turned her other sword gold with black spots on it. There was the kanji for Roaring Storm written on the blade.
"Thank you," Kira said with a deep bow.
The two summons nodded and then went back to the summons realm.
"Now then," Naruto said, "I believe we got training to do people. That means you two girls no slacking off!"
The girls nodded and joined their boyfriend and his friends in their training.
Meanwhile…
Pein roared in anger as he slammed his fist into the wall.
"I can't believe those little traitors," the rinnegan bearer yelled in fury.
"Calm yourself Pein," the woman said as she rubbed her husbands shoulders, "We will get back at them soon."
The man sighed and said, "You are right Konan-chan. I am just angry right now. I can't force my hand too soon."
The woman nodded before pulling the man to her and kissing his cheek.
'Itachi, Kisame,' Pein thought, 'You will pay for this treachery.'
Cut! Okay glad that's out of the way. Okay people I'll update my other stories as son as I can. Okay goodbye.
