The sealing was complete. Fu fell to the ground like a ragdoll. The Akatsuki looked at Naruto strangely before they stopped sending their thoughts and disappeared one by one. Eventually they all left and Naruto was left alone. The Akatsuki were probably shocked that Naruto hadn't done anything. Little did they know he had.
Naruto jumped down next to Fu. "Alright get up." Naruto said shaking her awake. Fu slowly opened her eyes and letting them focusing on Naruto.
"How am I alive?" Fu said weakly.
"I told you I wouldn't let you die." Naruto said grabbing Fu and lifting her up to her feet. She might be a strong ninja, but she had been trapped for three days without food or water and Naruto was sure it wasn't a very pleasant experience.
"I know you said you would, but I thought you were just lying." Fu Said trying to stand up on her own without using Naruto as a support.
"You need to stop comparing me to those idiots in Taki. I have way more class than them plus I need more powerful people on my side." Naruto said.
"I think you might be overestimating me. Even if I'm alive I can feel that I'm not a jinchuriki anymore." Fu said managing to stay on her feet and following Naruto out of the cave.
"I know; it wouldn't be very convincing if the Akatsuki didn't get their tailed-beast, but your still a good ninja even without you little helper." Naruto said sounding like tricking the Akatsuki had been a boring task.
"So how did you save me?" Fu asked.
"It wasn't that hard although I'm sure if any of the other Akatsuki members had actually been in the room they would have noticed." Naruto said. "All I did was use my vector control to separate your regular chakra from the demonic and then only let the demonic chakra out of your body."
"But even if you did that I still should have died." Fu said shocked at how easy Naruto made that sound.
"Well I did control all your internal functions and adjusted them to stable levels. That was the hard part do you know how many things I had to keep track of; blood flow, heartbeat, breathing, chakra flow just to name some of the more important ones."
"Thank you," Fu said blushing a bit from hearing all Naruto had done for her.
"No need you'll repay me soon enough." Naruto said looking up into the sky like he expected something to come down and greet him.
"What do I need to do? I'll do anything." Fu said ready to repay her savor completely ignore that he was the one who had captured in the first place, but she would rather be with him anyways.
"You won't have to do much just help me with a plan." Naruto spent the rest of the day explaining what Fu and some guy named Suigetsu were going to do.
Fu would never forget that. Naruto had taken her away from Taki and while she thought the best way to go about things was to try and get the village to like her she realized now that it would never have happened. She wouldn't deny it she had probably fallen in love with Naruto and was eager for this all to be over so she could spend more time with him. Fu however was not a useless fangirl that would follow him like a lost puppy; in fact, Fu had some problems with this plan. Sure Fu knew it would make him stronger—incredibly so—but a god. Fu thought Naruto might be a little full of himself, but then again Naruto hadn't really explained what would happen when all he got the parts he needed. When Fu had asked him he just reposed with 'once I have the tailed beast and what you two will be getting from the leaf my vector control will ascended to another level: a godly level.' Fu didn't know how the tailed beasts would make Naruto's vector control any more power; hell. Fu didn't know how his vector control could get any stronger. But that was only on the tailed beast end. Fu know exactly how the item they were getting would help Naruto.
"We're here," Suigetsu said looking at a sewer grate.
"Then let's get to work." Fu said with a lovely smile.
On the other side of the village metal clashed with sparks jumping from every impact. Mito was having problems getting close to Minima as her chains would keep pushing her away, and her long-range lighting jutsus didn't help since they would just charge Minima's chains. "Is this what you want Mito For us to be fighting, just let me make it up to you. Naruko's changed, but Naruto never will."
"Shut up you don't know anything!" Mito yelled blocking one of Minima's chains.
"You can't deny it if you stay with Naruto you'll end up as rotten and evil as he is." Minima said focusing her energy to make her chains strike faster.
"You're the rotten ones!" Mito yelled breaking through Minima's wall of chains and getting in close. Minim ducked down to avoid Mito's swords and hit her in the stomach. Her doing so caused to Mito leaned over in pain and cut Minima on both her shoulders as her swords were brought down. Minima backed away to keep her arms from getting cut off.
"Was it really that bad!? Would you still rather take Naruto over us?!" Minima yelled.
"Why wouldn't I." Mito yelled her eyes starting to tear up, and Minima could see the little girl she was. The fact was Mito was still a kid who should be going on C-rank missions with her friends not in the middle of a battlefield fighting her sister. She had her childhood robbed from her, and as much as Minima would like to blame Naruto she knew that she was just as at fault.
"Damn it. It's the older sister's job to protect the younger one. Minima said just loud enough for Mito to hear. "We shouldn't be doing this we're family!" Minima yelled tears running down her own face.
"Well its Naruto's job too! And he did it way better than you." Metal clashed once again in a fury of emotion.
"He's not protecting you he's using you to further his own crazy plan." Minima said sweat dripping down her face and her shoulders rising up and down with each heavy breath. Mito wasn't in any better shape. They had both been running around a lot and with the emotion running high the mental strain was just as bad as the physical one.
"You talk about protecting me. You talk about how we need to be a family. But you call him crazy. You call him a monster. Tell me where does Naruto fit-in to this happy fantasy of yours?! Isn't he family too?!" Mito yelled.
Minima was about to retort, but the words died in her mouth. Where did Naruto fit-in? Sure Minima had decided that Naruto was too evil to ever be accepted into the family, but he wouldn't just go away if Minima brought Mito back. Did Minima want him killed? In the heat of her anger she may have said yes, but now no matter how evil Naruto was Minima didn't what to visit his grave. But the only other option was to let him continue on and become a god, and if that happened then who knows what kind of disaster he would bring. Naruto was evil Minima had no doubt about that, but was it really his fault. He had been trapped in a cage with Orochimaru as his warden. Naruto may play it off like no big deal, but who knows what he went through. Maybe Naruto could step out of the darkness and into the light. He wouldn't be the first member of their family to do it.
Minima looked at Mito. She obviously cared deeply about Naruto and convincing her to come back to Konoha would be difficult, but Minima had to convince her. Not just because she thought it would be beast for Mito, but because now she believed it would be best for Naruto. If he could be surrounded by family that truly wanted to set him right then maybe something would change. "Where does Naruto fit-in?" Minima said after a long period of silent thinking. "Right beside us."
Mito was taken back by Minima's complete reversal and crouched lower into her fighting position. "Your lying you want to see Naruto dead and even if you did believe that. Naruto's already the brother I wanted he doesn't need to change. I have no reason to come here when we already have everything we need."
"Now you're lying." Minima said with a low tone. "Naruto isn't at all the brother you wanted." Minima took out a book and threw it at Mito. Surprisingly Mito dropped one of her swords to catch it because that book was very important to her. It was the book that had all the drawings of what she thought Naruto would look and be like. She hadn't brought it with her when she left because she had been going to meet the real thing. "You went to see a hero. A person who would save everyone no matter what, but most importantly you wanted him to save you." But you didn't get that! Instead you got someone who only cares for himself and his small group of allies. He doesn't believe in second chances all it takes is for someone to get in his way. Then he's has no problem with killing them.
"You don't understand. It's your fault for attacking him he's the victim. He's nice when it's not a battle."
"No you're the one who's wrong!" Minima yelled abandoning her chains and running towards Mito. "What would happened if you all died here!? Who would he be nice to then!? And maybe people do attack him, but I'm sure you know that those attacks can't even be considered threats to Naruto. It's the same as them yelling that they're going to kill him, and yet when someone yells that at me I don't go in kill them because I know they couldn't really do it! So why is Naruto?!" Minima was getting closer. Mito could see, but her mind had been completely shot. All she ever believed and thought about Naruto was coming into question. As such Mito couldn't even dedicate one percent of her brain to putting up a defense. Mito thought Minima was going to hit her but instead she hugged her. "But even if all that's the case we're a family and need to help each other. I can see that now thanks to you. So what do you say do you want to help us pull Naruto out from the darkness?"
Mito didn't give a verbal response, her brain would not allow for such a thing, but she warped her arm around Minima's back to return the hug. The broken family was slowly picking up the pieces and putting it back together.
A ninja who was not part of the normal Konoha force was patrolling the sewers. He was part of an organizing know as Root under the leadership of Danzo, and yet none of the members of the organization were fighting the serious threat to the Leaf. Instead they had come down to the sewer which was hiding one of Root's many bases. They were waiting it out to see what would happen after the flames were out. Danzo wanted the Hokage seat and there was no better chance to take a grab at it then right after the battle. The ninja was patrolling to make sure no one would find out about them at least until they were ready. Unfortunately a group had already made their move.
The root ninja heard the sound of someone landing behind him, but before he could turn around he was pushed into the sewer water. Normally he would have just surfaced and raised the alarm, but something was keeping him from swimming up. It felt like something was grabbing but the only thing around him was water. Unable to break free of the mysterious power the root ninja drowned.
Fu watched the ninja's body float back up then pushed down stream. A moment later Suigetsu's head popped above the water line. "And another one meets a watery grave."
"No one's caught on yet?" Fu asked.
"The water is still undisturbed they have no idea we're here." Suigetsu said with an easy-going tone.
"That's good. Fighting Danzo head on would be a problem." Fu said only knowing the man from what Naruto had told her.
"Yeah but he has to unlock that arm of his before he can really stand up to us. A quick assassination will be the end of that odd fart." Suigetsu said as he started swimming.
"How do you know all this?" Fu asked.
"Same way Naruto does. Danzo made all kinds of dark deals with Orochimaru. I only saw him a couple of times myself and that was only as he was passing by, but the prisoners didn't have much to do but talk about what was going on so information got spread around. Besides I'm sure the Hokage's son got to meet him on a more person level then I ever did." Suigetsu said as he stopped his swimming and disappeared back underwater. "Anyways let's get a move on we've still got more ground to cover before we get to Danzo." Suigetsu's voice echoed off the walls making it impossible to tell where he was in that mucky water. It gave off a very unnerving aura that made Suigetsu seem like a ghost. Fu was just glad he was on her side. She didn't know how she would deal with someone who could literally become part of the water.
Hitomi was bleeding badly. Even with Itachi's injuries he was still kicking her ass, but Hitomi was not disheartened yet because she had gotten hits in. They were not nearly as numerous or as damaging as the ones she had received, but they proved that Itachi wasn't even close to his full potential.
Hitomi knew that with Itachi current state being aggressive was a much better strategy then waiting for Itachi to catch his breath. Hitomi charged in with her Scythe swinging it wildly trying to attack from every angle, but she was cut off when Itachi kicked her in the stomach pushing her back. But something strange happened: Itachi staggered. Hitomi not willing to let this chance go to waste did a diagonal swing that cut Itachi down his chest. Itachi took a few uneasy steps back as blood dripped to the floor. Then started coughing uncontrollably he brought his hand to his mouth and when he removed it there was a fresh coat of blood on it.
"What the hell is wrong with you?" Hitomi asked having problems believing that Itachi was in this bad a state.
Itachi gave a dry smile with blood running down the side of his mouth. "You might find this hard to believe but I'm dying."
"Your right I don't believe that! You're telling me that one of the strongest ninja in the leaf is on their death bed!" Hitomi yelled.
"You can believe what you want but it's the truth. I don't have much time left. I was supposed to be resting to get my strength back up. But since you forced me into this fight I can feel my body dying out on me, and even if you hadn't attack me I would have never been able to stay in this ninja life for much longer. So congratulations you got your revenge even if you lose this fight the odds are I won't make it to see the end of the day." Itachi said with a kind of final peace.
"So is that it after everything you've done. All the people you've hurt you just going to fade away without any last hurrah." Hitomi said. She didn't know why but the knowledge that Itachi was going to die no matter what made her angry. It was like her own vengeance was being taken away from her. What about all the other Uchiha kids? How would they feel knowing that the man who murdered their family just suddenly died? Would they fell satisfied? Hitomi couldn't' imagine they would. "If you're going to die anyways then let me kill you. At least that way I can feel like you paid for your crimes."
"I can't do that." Itachi said. "Revenge does nothing but drag people into the abyss. If I let you kill me then Sasuke will swear his revenge against you and the cycle will start all over again. You say I need to pay for the terrible things I've done, yet you follow someone who is just like me. I did what I did to protect the village. Naruto did what he did to protect himself. We've both made orphans and caused people to cry and swear their vengeance against us. Tell me do you think the children of the ninja Naruto killed, regards of who started the fight, should have the right to kill Naruto?"
Hitomi was shanking. She wanted to say of course not, it was their parents fault for attacking Naruto, but that would mean destroying the very base of why she was attacking Itachi. It was after all her parents who had started the fight against the leaf. In the end Hitomi couldn't say anything and charged Itachi for one last attempted at revenge. And Itachi stood there with a dry smile on his face awaiting the end.
Hitomi Scythe was embedded in Itachi's side and had priced a lung. He would soon die Itachi knew this, but he was content. The cycle of revenge that had cursed the Uchiha for a long time had been broken, at least for now. Sasuke would not seek revenge on Itachi's killer because she was laid out on the street with a kunai in her stomach. She was not breathing. Itachi turned back to his house and started walking. There was no reason for it but he wanted to die in his own home.
He made it to the front door a trail of blood behind him. Right as he opened the door he fell inside with his final breath. His upper half laid inside the threshold of his property while his bottom half laid outside. Maybe Hitomi would find satisfaction that she had denied Itachi his final wish no matter how small.
Danzo an old man covered in bandages was surrounded by Root ninja that were ready to give their lives to protect him. Suigetsu was watching from the water if only Danzo was a little bit closer than one swing with his sword would end it. But as things stood right now Suigetsu had no way of getting to Danzo without alerting every ninja there. Fu on the other hand was right above Danzo's head and no one was noticing. She could suppress here chakra signature completely. To most people this would be impossible but Fu had to learn to suppress her demonic chakra, and when it was suddenly taken away suppressing her regular chakra was an easy task. Besides that it was amazing just how little people forgot to look up.
Yet even with Fu in the perfect position to assassinate Danzo she couldn't because once she did those Root ninja would kill her, and Fu wasn't going to make this a suicide mission. So it was up to Suigetsu to lure then away. Suigetsu thought about it for a little bit, but couldn't think of anything, so he would just do what he did best. If Fu couldn't take on all the Root ninja alone then they would just do it together.
Suigetsu jumped out of the water slicing the nearest ninja in half. All attention was on Suigetsu and in that moment Fu, who was not happy about the plan Suigetsu chose, dropped down and stabbed a water blade through Danzo's heart. The Root ninja quickly fought back despite their leader having been killed, but in the end the shock of losing their boss caused then to become disorganized and ended in their deaths.
Suigetsu tossed all the bodies into the water as Fu dressed the wounds she acquired from the battle. "I can't believe you got injured those guys were jokes once Danzo was killed. Speaking about Danzo did you see the look on his face? He didn't even have to time think about unlocking his arm."
"We got luckily if he had sensed we were coming he would have crushed us, and by the way you got injured just as much as I did but your stupid body doesn't show the damage." Fu said.
"Yeah whatever, but now that everyone's dead we can search for those documents that Naruto wants." Suigetsu said heading as he started opining random desks and cabinets that were down here.
"I guess your right we need to get that information, but we don't even know if Danzo has it or if it even exists in the first place." Fu said.
"Trust me it exists and Danzo will defiantly have it after all they guy is obsessed with the sharingan. There's no way he didn't do research into its abilities." Suigetsu said tossing a sack of paper to the side.
"Then I guess we better find." Fu said as she started looking around thinking about how happy it would make Naruto if she hand delivered the information. Once he knew the concept behind the sharingan's power he would be able to reflect it and then he wouldn't have to worry about some pesky Uchiha taking his throne. And if by will alone Fu found it, Danzo's research into the sharingan. A quick skim showed that it was exactly what Naruto needed to plug the hole in his defense.
Hanabi kept her distance since her father's gentle fist technique was miles ahead of hers. But Hiashi wouldn't be head of the Hyuga clan if something that simple would stop him. He shot wind out of his palms. The area of effect was wide and it was tearing up the ground so Hanabi was forced to dodge to the side. That was all the time it took for Hiashi to close the distance.
Hanabi quickly spun around creating a dome of chakra to push Hiashi back. If he was able to close even one of Hanabi's major charka points the fight would be over. Hanabi dome didn't stop Hiashi for long he created his own dome and brought it against Hanabi's. The two chakras grinded against each other; however, within a matter of seconds it was clear who had the upper hand. Hanabi's dome burst as she flew backwards.
Hiashi stopped spinning and stood there waiting for Hanabi to get up. Hanabi was pissed as she stood up and wiped the blood that was dripping from her chin. It was clear by the way her father was acting that he didn't see this as an actually fight he was treating it more as a training exercise. That would also explain while Hinata was standing off to the sidelines not doing anything. And as if to prover her point Hiashi started talking. "You've improved. I'm glad to see that your absence from the leaf hasn't been a complete waste."
Hanabi growled as she did a few hand signs and a wave of water escaped from her mouth. Hiashi didn't bat an eye as he ran straight through the torrent. It looked like the water had engulfed him but a little later he popped back at the other side with no sign of the water having affected him, with the expectation of being soaked.
Hanabi tried to do another set of hand signs but Hiashi was too close. Hanabi ended up in the situation she had wanted to avoid the most: a taijutsu battle. Hiashi attacks were lightning fast and had the precision of a surgeon. Hanabi could not keep up. She tried to fall back but this only caused Hiashi to push his advantage. He struck serval of Hanabi's chakra points before she was finally able to get away. none of them were major and as long as Hanabi had use of her arms she could unblock them once she had an opportunity to do so, but they disrupted her chakra network none the less.
Hanabi really had to think of a way to beat her father. She still had the Nuibari but with Hiashi Byakugan that was no angle she could strike from that he wouldn't see. Actually there was one place, but there was no way her father would be carless enough to let Hanabi take advantage of it. Yet it was her only hope so she had to try it.
Hanabi threw the Nuibari at Hiashi and he dodged to the side no problem. Hanabi pulled of the string to have the sword return, but she adjusted it so it was in Hiashi blind stop. It got closer and closer to Hiashi's head and Hanabi dared to hope it would work, but just as it was about to hit Hiashi brought his arm behind his head and grabbed it.
"Did you really think that would work?" Hiashi said sounding disappointed.
"No but I think this will!" Hanabi yelled as she came charging at him. Hiashi was unprepared and he was still holding the Nuibari, so he only used one hand to attack Hanabi. He closed off a lot of her chakra points, but Hanabi was still able to crash into him with her entire weight while not a lot was still able to knock him to the ground. Hiashi barley had enough time to move the Nuibari he was holding so it wouldn't skewer him.
Hanabi however now had an advantage and was desperate to press it. Hanabi head-butted Hiashi causing blood to drip from both their foreheads. Hiashi was no use to this kind of fight and got lightheaded from the attack. His grip on the sword loosened and Hanabi was quick to pick it up and place it right above Hiashi's neck.
"You lose." Hanabi said.
"Oh really because I'm still breathing and if you think you can get away while I'm still able to move then maybe Hinata really should be clan head." Hiashi said looking at Hanabi's form. She was shaking so badly that she couldn't keep her weapon steady. It was all because her chakra network was shot thanks to all the chakra points Hiashi had closed. Hanabi needed to get away and unblock them but in order to guarantee that time Hiashi would have to be died. "You can't do it can you?" Hiashi said with an emotionless look. "You might have been trained by someone who could kill his family without a care, but you can't do it." Hiashi slowly brought his arm up and grabbed the sword.
Hanabi knew that if he pushed it away it would all be over. She had to make a chose, but could she really kill her father? Naruto or her father, a subordinate to the strongest ninja in the world or the head of the most prestigious clan in the world, love or blood. A choice had to be made, and in the end it was.
Madara ran through Kumo with the intent of gather up the Akatsuki, but that plan would be put on hold when a boulder the size of a building landed on him. Madara's head poked out of the rock to see a man with an eerie grin approaching. "I see you didn't heed my warning."
"Warning?" Naruto said coming to a stop in front of Madara. "I didn't take that as a warning I took it as a challenge."
"Are you really prepared to take me on?" Madara said fazing completely out of the rock.
Naruto tilted his head to the side cracking his neck. "An ancient artifact who lost to the first Hokage when he was still in his prime. I think I'll be just fine."
"You're also making an enemy of the Akatsuki." Madara said as if to give Naruto one last chance, but both knew that there was not going back.
"The Akatsuki," Naruto laughed, "is done they're getting destroyed in the leaf and Kumo has already pushed Kisame and Deidara back if they're not dead already. Besides even if you somehow scrounge up the remains Bee's dead. The Akatsuki has lost its goal. Its reason to exist."
Then the fight began. Both sides jumped at each other bringing their fists together, but instead of an explosion of power Naruto harmlessly passed through Madara. "You know that really pisses me off." Naruto said trying to mess with Madara's vectors, but oddly enough he couldn't find any.
"This is no different from your reflection they both keep us from being hit." Madara said.
"So you're saying neither of us can cause damage to the other. What a boring battle this will turn out to be." Naruto said.
"You're the one who started it." Madara said. "But I didn't say that I only said they served the same purpose." Madara threw a kunai and it stuck into Naruto's side bypassing his reflection.
Naruto felt the pain but didn't look at all worried that his reflection had been broken. He screwed with his own chakra and the kunai disappeared. "You know if you want to trick me with a genjutsu you're going to have to be more realistic. Like show me a giant monster that breathes fire and talks like a four year old crushing Kumo."
The fight continued and just like Naruto predicted the fight was painfully boring all the attacks Naruto tried to do passed right through Madara, and Madara wouldn't even attack because he would get a broken wrist if he tried. All Naruto could think to do was constantly attack Madara and maybe he would just run out of chakra using that technique or maybe the technique itself had some sort of restriction.
It didn't look like it was doing anything, but Naruto noticed that the closer that they got to the five minute mark the more nervous Madara was becoming and the more he tried to get away from Naruto. "What's the problem you getting scared." Madara didn't say anything but tried even harder to get away. "You better do something or you're going to die." Madara couldn't get away, so he did the only think he could.
Naruto suddenly found his body getting pulled forward into Madara's eye. It wasn't long before Naruto's entire body was sucked in by the unknown vector. Naruto dropped into a strange place that was made up entirely of block and had purple tint.
Madara was standing on a block that was elevated higher than the one he was on. "Is this your big plan?" Naruto said spreading his arms. "Do you think that if we fight here that anything will change?"
Madara looked down on Naruto and spoke in a very superior voice. "Of course not, but I can just leave you here until you starve. But maybe I'll let you out if you swear allegiance to me."
Madara expected Naruto to have a look of pure horror being forced to admit he lost, but that's not what he got instead Naruto looked annoyed. "Is that it? Is that all you've got?"
"Do you think you're so powerful that you can fight off starvation?" Madara asked mad that he had not gotten the reaction he wanted.
Naruto face warped from an annoyed look to a disappointed look. "To think I thought I was going to be able fight someone who was able to face off against the god of shinobi. That would have proven I was the strongest ninja alive, but instead I got you a sad excess for an imposture."
Madara was taken back by Naruto's word. "What are you talking about you've lost and now you're trying to say I'm not who I say I am."
"If you want to be Madara that's fine I don't really care anymore, but you're way too weak and stupid. Madara's not a one trick pony yet all you were able to do was avoid my attacks and when that didn't work you sent me here. Even Minato was able to hurt me, but all you can do it lock me in a cell and run away, but I've got news for you putting me in here was the worst mistake you've ever made, and it something the real Madara would never do." Naruto said pointing his arm at the man in the mask. "I know how you've been fazing through everything. You've been sending your body or part of it into this dimension."
"So what if you've figure it out you're still trapped in here." Madara said about ready to leave, but Naruto's laugh stopped him.
"If this is the best you can do then you've got a serious problem on your hands. You're talking to the master of vectors! Anything that has mass and direction is under my control! And you better not think I'm limited to the X, Y and Z axis of 3D space. You see I couldn't hit you because I didn't understand how it worked, but now that I know you're just changing dimension then it becomes simple. All I have to do is take a fourth axis between this dimension and ours into account." Madara watch as the whole dimension started to shift and blur until it changed back to the Kumo.
Madara was shocked he couldn't believe that Naruto had just broken himself out of an inescapable prison. "You know I guess fighting you wasn't a complete waste because now that I've been in both dimension I can freely move between then." Naruto said walking closer to Madara and to Madara's horror he took a step back in fear. "Although I don't know if I'll ever have a reason to change since I can't send only parts of my body like you can, but it can't hurt to have it." Naruto then speed towards Madara. Madara didn't know what to do so he did what he always did and sent part of his body to the other dimension. But Naruto hit him clear on and sent him tumbling back. "I told you that if you didn't come up with something new that you would have a serious problem!" Naruto yelled sounding mad that Madara didn't have a different plan. "I have that fourth axis now even if you send your body to the other dimension I can bring back by reversing the vectors you're trying to use."
Madara launched a devastating fire jutsu at Naruto, but it just came back and fazed through Madara. You could hear Naruto sigh. "I guess it really is over. You don't have any tricks left. What a disappointment. "Naruto brought his hand up and seemed to imagine it warped around Madara's mask. "Of course I can only control vectors I touch, so cyclones and rocks will still faze through you. But that's ok reversing you blood flow will be enough. I won't check to see who you really are after your dead if you're worried about that. If I did it would break the illusion. At least this way I can pretend that fought with Madara he just happened to get so much weaker with age." With that said Naruto lunged at the man in the mask and killed him.
Nagato watch Minato approach him. "So you're the one who was controlling the Peins." Minato said with a hateful look in his eye.
"I think it hardly matters what part I played in the invasion. All that you care about it that I played apart, so just go ahead and kill me. I know you want to." Nagato said having given up after watching all his Peins and Konan die.
"Don't worry I will, but first I need to ask you something. Where is my son?" Minato said with a hint of a hiss.
"So you still care about him even after he almost killed you." Nagato said.
"Of course I do. I'm still his father, and even if he's put in a cell for his crimes you bet it will be a cell in the leaf far anyway from anyone who would kill him out of anger!" Minato yelled.
"How naïve there are plenty of people in the leaf who want him died, and aren't you being a little hypocritical after all isn't the reason you're here to kill me is because of your anger." Nagato said not trying to avoid his fate just simply stating the facts.
"You're not my son."
"And he is not the son of anyone else so don't be surprised when they offer up the same kind of bloodshed that you've offering me."
"Where is my son."
"Who knows? He was sent to Kumo, but if Kumo crushed the Akatsuki just like the leaf did here then he could be long gone or dead." Nagato said, and not long after a Kunai went through his brain.
Suigetsu and Fu could only see the Leaf village on the horizon now. "Looks like we did it." Suigetsu said smirking with pleasure.
"We got what we came here for. Now none if the Uchiha's special techniques will be a threat to Naruto. Although now that Itachi's dead, is there really any Uchiha left that could have posed a threat to Naruto?" Fu asked.
"It's still good to have it. But I'm a little sad about the brats look like none of them will be able to join us." Suigetsu said although he didn't seem too sad about that fact. Just as they were about to head off they heard a bush rustle and prepared to attack.
"There's still on brat who's willing to come along." Hanabi said as she shambled onto the road. Her face was covered in blood, but only a little bit if it was hers. She had made her choice and she had choosing Naruto. "Let's get going I want to wash this filth off."
"Oh look whose giving orders now." Suigetsu said in good fun as Hanabi walked by him.
"Um Suigetsu who is that?" Fu whispered into his ear. She had never heard Suigetsu or Naruto talk about the 'brats' until now.
"She's your competition." Suigetsu said with a smile running off to meet Hanabi. Fu blushed heavily before running off to catch the both of them.
It was silent in Kumo. All the ninja were gather around a person who looked more like a shark. He wasn't breathing and his sword laid next to him without a master. The explosions had also stopped. The Kumo nin were sure that Deidara was dead somewhere if he hadn't been crushed to the particle level. Once they realized this fact they jumped in joy. "We've won!" Someone yelled. There were cheers and happiness all around even Mei seemed to be enjoying herself, but then something struck next the Kisame's body kicking up a cloud of dust.
The Kumo nin stopped their party and aimed all their weapons at the cloud. Once it settled they could see person with red eyes bending over to pick up Kisame's sword. "Relax," the man said as if he was talking to a group of rowdy children. "I'm just here because I promised I'd get Suigetsu this sword. I have no reason to fight you."
"Like hell you don't! You're one of the people that invaded our village!" Someone yelled. A hail of jutsus and weapons assaulted the man; once again kicking up a cloud of dust. But none of them hit and none of they were reflected, instead above the cloud the man was hovering with four cyclones keeping him in the air and the sword in his hand. "I have no time for you today." The man said. "Because I have very important business to take care of and once it's complete I will have elevated to a new plane." The man then flow away so fast that some would question if he had never really been there and it had just been a genjutsu.
