(Still at it guys.)
After partnering with Konan who defected from the Akatsuki when Dormammu eliminated her comrade Nagato, Naruto and his team were reaching Ame prepared to settle things with the entity for good. As Konan was jumping along a branch with the others Spiderman swung along side her, "Hey Konan, can I ask you something?"
"You may Spiderman."
"You said you defected from the Akatsuki, but why do you still wear the uniform of it?"
The origami woman sighed, "Because the Akatsuki and this cloak was started by my comrades Nagato and Yahiko, not Madara. And the Akatsuki's ambition wasn't always to collect the tailed beasts, but to achieve peace for our village and nation. The red clouds imprinted on our cloaks symbolize the bloody war that stormed out nation for as long as we could remember."
"So how did it come under new management?" Spiderman asked.
"When Yahiko met with Ame's leader Hanzo to talk peace, he was betrayed by the man and had to kill himself to save my life. After Yahiko's death, Nagato had changed that day and knew trying to achieve peace would not be so easily grasped through mere negotiating. Somehow Madara conned his way into the Akatsuki with his power and influence drawing in the nuke-nin you've been fighting."
Naruto had swung by, joining in on the conversation, "Well Konan you'll be happy to know we've managed to form bonds with other great nations in order to combat Dormammu, our marriage with Yugito, Kurotsuchi, Samui, Mei, Hotaru, Shizuka, and Shion are proof of that bond of peace."
Konan smiled, "Yahiko and Nagato would be purely jealous of you Naruto."
"We bet they would." Naruto chuckled as Itachi called.
"Everyone stop!" everyone came to a halt as Konan looked ahead.
"This is it." She said as they saw the village not too far from where they stood and saw a rain cloud above said village.
"Guess that rain jutsu's still in affect." Thing noticed.
"Madara's taken over the use of that jutsu. The moment we step in we'll be detected." Konan explained.
"I can stop that," Dr. Strange put in as he used his magic on everyone and himself, "There this spell should protect us from being detected by the rain."
"Before we go there's something we have to say," Naruto began, "We've made it this far because we worked together. It wasn't easy but we did it. But what we've done back there won't be as easy as what we'll be facing in Ame. Dormammu, Mordo, Madara, Kabuto, and Smythe are crafty adversaries and we need to be at the top of our game if we ever hope to defeat them. So let's all go and give it everything we got." He put out his hand prompting his wives, Itachi followed by Konan, and the heroes.
"Break!" they called as they headed for the village.
Meanwhile in Ame at the Akatsuki hideout, Smythe stood before his cryogenic suspended father, "Don't worry father soon you will walk the earth again. I'll make sure of it."
"Smythe!" Smythe turned seeing Mordo approach, "Dormammu requests you guard the first level entry way."
"What for?" he asked curiously.
"My master and Madara feel that we will be getting some unwanted company sometime soon." Mordo explained.
"I see, very well." Smythe answered as he walked past the magic user but felt suspicious of why he was requested to be the guard and not Kabuto or themselves.
Meanwhile entering the rainy village, were Naruto and his allies each wearing a heavy cloak to keep their appearances shrouded from Ame civilians or other ninja. "All right Konan where to from here?" Naruto whispered.
"That tall building over there serves as the main hideout." She whispered back.
"Then let's go." Naruto ordered as they casually walked through the village heading right for the tower.
When they reached it, Konan showed them the secret entry located underneath the building and used it to get inside. As they walked through a tunnel they were all on alert for whatever may come at them. When they reached the end of the hall, Spiderman and the symbiotic shinobi's spider senses went off, "Everyone on guard!" Naruto called as they got ready as Smythe walked into the clear.
"Well surprise-surprise."
"Smythe. So you really are working for Dormammu?" Spiderman asked.
"I'm afraid so Spider how unfortunate for you."
"Let's clobber him!" Thing declared as everyone was ready to attack but Naruto blocked him.
"Hold it Ben, let us deal with this one."
"What're you talking about kid?" Wolverine asked.
"If we take him now we'll have one less problem." Cyclops reasoned with Naruto.
"No, this is something only we can do," Naruto replied as he approached Smythe much to everyone's shock, "Alistair we speak to you as Naruto and not the symbiote, we know what you've gone through."
"Do you now?" Smythe asked crossing his arms.
"It hurts doesn't it," Naruto began, "Losing your father, being lied to, being used. We know too well what that's like. We lost our father and our mother when we were born. That information was kept from us by higher ups who felt if we didn't know we could be persuaded to do anything for them. We thought no one cared for us or would ever help us, but we found people who showed us that there are people who're willing to give us support even in the baddest of times. We know you're not a bad person Alistair, you've just been hired to do bad things, and deep down you know you're not a bad person."
"What is the point you're trying to make with me, Naruto?" Smythe asked.
"Don't go down the bad path again," Naruto replied confusing the Spider-Slaying cyborg, "Your time under the Kingpin was you being used and deceived and Silvermane never did help you with your father. Don't go further down that path by helping Dormammu, because we know his type, the kind who goes back on his word when he is done with anyone."
Smythe looked back remembering Dormammu eliminated Zetsu out of his own frustration due to Sasori's and Deidara's failure, along with absorbing Nagato claiming he would pose as a threat if he decided to act on his own. He looked back at Naruto who continued, "Please Alistair you can begin a new with us. We will help you restore your father."
"How can I trust you?" he questioned Naruto.
"Because unlike Kingpin, Silvermane, and Dormammu we don't go back on our word," Naruto extended a hand out to him, "Please Alistair. You can help us defeat Dormammu and in return we'll do what we can to restore your father."
Smythe's green lenses went up revealing his human eyes as he looked at Naruto's hand before slowly raising his own hand and locked it with Naruto's surprising the blonde's allies, "I-I'll help you."
Naruto smiled, "You made the right choice Smythe."
"Unbelievable, he actually convinced Smythe to help us?" Spiderman gasped.
"This wasn't his first time convincing somebody." Mei replied.
"Yeah." Kurotsuchi agreed knowing how he got through to her grandfather to join their alliance.
"Agreed." Yugito added as Samui nodded on how he convinced their leader to join him as well.
The allies joined Naruto in welcoming Smythe to their party, as Konan called, "Come on this way!" they hurried unaware of Mordo's astral form watching them with irritation.
The group hurried along through the tunnels, heading upward to the tower until they burst into the room, "All right Dormammu it's all over!" Naruto announced until he and the others noticed Dormammu, Mordo, Kabuto, and Madara standing side by side with an army of robotic fighters behind them.
"I very much agree with you." Dormammu answered.
"Where'd he get those robots?" Iron Man asked but suddenly everyone turned to Smythe.
Smythe only shrugged his shoulders remembering he built those robots for Madara a month ago and were kept on standby if ever needed, "Sorry."
"Welcome ninjas and heroes to your ultimate destruction." Madara welcomed them.
"I don't feel at all welcomed." Gambit replied.
"Neither do I." War Machine added.
Naruto approached as everyone threw off their cloaks, "Madara Uchiha, Kabuto, Dormammu you three have been a thorn in countless innocent lives, now it's up to all of us to rectify the evils you have all done to not only the ninja land but to other worlds as well. Girls suit up!" Naruto called as he went full Catastrophe and the girls went into symbiote form as well.
"Attack!" Madara ordered the robots that charged into battle with the good guys fighting back.
Iron Man, War Machine, Smythe, and Cyclops were blasting at some of the robots blowing them to pieces. The symbiotic girls were using their own natural abilities enhanced by their symbiotes to break and destroy more of the robots. Beast and thing were using their strengths to crush and rip apart more robots coming their way while Captain America swung his shield like a boomerang slicing three robots in half.
Spiderman back flipped around the room launching web threads at some robots and swung them into another that was fighting Black Cat, "Thanks Spider!" Black Cat called.
"Anytime." He replied.
"Time to play can opener!" Wolverine called using his claws to rip open the robots while Gambit launched his card bombs that exploded upon contact with the robots.
"Flame on!" Johnny called powering up and fired massive fire balls at five robots while Reed stretched his body around eight binding them together enough to crush them.
Dr. Strange was busy fighting against his adversary Mordo in a magical blast war, "This is for meddling in my affairs, Strange."
"And this is for me!" Dr. Strange called as his magic overpowered Mordo forcing him back.
Konan and Itachi ganged up on Madara fighting him, "Konan and Itachi you two were such valiant members, and yet you turn your backs on the organization?"
"Akatsuki was never yours to begin with Madara!" Konan called.
"You stained the Uchiha name and left me to murder my own family!" Itachi added as they fought.
"Then you can go the way of the Uchiha Itachi!" Madara called activating his space time jutsu and Itachi found himself getting pulled into the swirl around Madara's mask.
"Itachi!" Catastrophe called as he was being absorbed.
"Naruto, stop Madara and Dormammu before it's…" Itachi was too late and he was completely absorbed into Madara.
"Where'd he go?" Jubilee gasped.
"I'm afraid Itachi's been locked into a pocket dimension thanks to my space time ninjutsu and will only be freed if I choose it." Madara answered.
Catastrophe frowned as Naruto thought, 'I won't let this happen to Itachi, if I can get close enough to Madara I can use one of my families sealing jutsu and force him to release Itachi, but first I got to get past hot head!' he fought Dormammu.
Dormammu fired blasts from his eyes at Catastrophe who kept back flipping and wall jumping to avoid the attacks, "This is for your betrayal symbiote!"
"Betray is such a harsh word, we just found better suiting inside Naruto." Catastrophe answered.
"Then I will eliminate your host!" he continued firing fiery blasts at Catastrophe who summoned twenty shadow clones each taking Dormammu on but he kept destroying them until he saw the real Catastrophe launch at him with an Oodama Rasengan.
"Oodama Rasengan!" Catastrophe thrusted it into Dormammu's chest sending him crashing into the wall but he peeled himself off and shook it off.
"Nice try symbiote, but your ninja jutsu won't work on me."
Back with the heroes, the robots just kept coming at them, "There's no end to these things!" Spiderman called as he was starting to get tired.
"Spider I have a plan. Stall for me!" Smythe called as he ran off down one tunnel.
Some of the robots tried to go after him to stop him but were blocked by Acid, "Going somewhere boys?" she unleashed her acid breath melting them.
Kabuto was unleashing his snakes against Viper, "Amazing isn't it Anko? Both students under Orochimaru with amazing power ups going at it to the death." Kabuto chuckled.
Viper replied, "You can join Orochimaru when we're done with you!" she tackled him only to see it was shedded skin and Kabuto has taken the form of a small monstrous looking snake before resuming his regular human like form.
"Sorry but I don't plan on dying today."
As the groups continued their fighting the wall in the room burst open surprising everyone, "Now what?" Spiderman gasped.
Suddenly standing in the hole in the wall was none other than Kakashi, Jiraiya, Guy, Kurenai, Asuma, Sakura, Neji, Lee, Shino, Hinata, Kiba, Shikamaru, Chouji, Gaara, Kankuro, Killer Bee, the Raikage, Karui, Omoi, the Tsuchikage, Choujuro, and Ao,
"Sorry for us to drop in without an invitation." Jiraiya said.
"Ero-sennin, Kakashi-sensei, Sakura, guys!" Catastrophe gasped.
"Sorry we're late Naruto." Kakashi said.
"How'd you guys get here?" Magma asked.
"Let's just say a kind old woman sent us here for support saying you'd be needing it." The Tsuchikage answered.
'Madame Web.' Catastrophe thought.
"Now then let's face this menace together!" Raikage declared raising his right arm.
"What my bro says ain't no jive, the tag team duo's coming alive!" Killer Bee added as the arrivals took their place beside the good guys.
"All right everybody, let's get 'em!" Catastrophe ordered ready to go another go with their enemies.
