Ascension
Rumors about Naruto's dead rechead ears of everyone in village in no time, there was no happiness in the streets and Hidden Leaf looked like city of ghosts, why? Because everyone was on cemetery or somewhere close to it, everyone wanted to say last goodbye to Savior of Village and next Hokage who wasn't choosen because he was too young. "Thank you all for coming. " Tsunade said sadly as she walked in front of everyone. She looked over front row and lowered her head in sadness. Naruto's closest ones were standing there, each with flowers. "Today we met here to say our last goodbye to one special shinobi. Naruto Namikaze wasn't ordinary boy, in fact he was more than special. He was thirteen and stronger than any Hokage in our history could be, but that's not what made him special. " Tsunade said as she looked on her right side and saw there rest of five Kage except Yagura with all Jinchūriki except Utakata. "While he was shinobi who brought fear and respect to hearts of his enemies he was special like person who never gave up. Maybe year ago or maybe more he was nothing more than boy who was trying to be strong but. " Tsunade couldn't handle it and broke in tears so Jiraya walked next to her.
"But he showed everyone than it doesn't matter who you are, where you live, what's your name or how strong you are, you can change into someone you want to be. Naruto was living image of his parents. Our former 4th Hokage and his wife sacrifaced their lives for Naruto and he did same thing for this village. He was putting his life on stake. But even he was vurnerable. I personally went to investigate where everything happened and I found out terrible truth. " Jiraya said as he lowered head and took a deep breath. "Orochimaru killed our future Hokage, just like he killed 3rd Hokage. He at first poisoned young Sasuke Uchiha who was Naruto's best friend and make them fight each other. Naruto got trought five elite Sound shinobi and then he encountered with Sasuke. If you would see area where they fought you would think that it was battle of two titans and not two thirteen years old boys. Orochimaru knew that Naruto is almost immortal when it comes to his power to regenerate any lost part of his body so he created poison which stopped this regeneration, and when Sasuke was on knees Orochimaru made his move and impaled Naruto from behind. " Jiraya explained while everyone listened carefully.
"He wanted to bring his best friend home but he paid with his own life. " Tsunade said as she walked to Naruto's coffin and placed hand on it. "But let's not forget what was Naruto's Ninja Way. He believed that someone who never gives up can be really powerful shinobi but only if he wants to protect his loved ones. You all maybe remember Naruto like small noisy boy who got on everyone's nerve. " Tsunade said with small chuckle at the end. "But he was man of many faces. He could be cold and cruel when it came to fight agaist enemies but in same time he never was a bad person. Everyone who knew him closely knows that he was the brightiest person you could ever meet. " Tsunade said as she placed dozen of white roses on coffin. "But he would never want us to be sad, he would say that life continues and something new is in front of us. " Tsunade said last words before she walked away from coffin and Jiraya walked there. "Don't worry Naruto. I'll make sure that everything you wanted to accomplish will be done. I will not let them take our world. " Jiraya whispered while he placed roses on Naruto grave. Slowly everyone walked to coffin with flowers in their hands.
"Naruto, you said that you got all powers you ever wanted thanks to me but I never imaginated that they will not be able to protect you, just like me. I'm sorry Naruto that I wasn't able to save you. " Iruka said with tears as he placed flowers and walked away. "Rest in peace you idiot. " Kiba said with tears but weak smile on his face. "Why did you leave me here alone Naruto? We were meant for each other. " Hinata cried. Shino just said quick rest in peace and walked away. "Hey Naruto, I hope that you are now on better place. " Chōji said as he walked away. "You went alone after Sasuke after you let him leave, I don't know what you thought but I know that you paid highest prize, and atleast I know that Sasuke didn't leave village villingly. " Ino said and let next team to step by. "Ino, don't you know where is Shikamaru? " Chōji asked when he didn't see his best friend paying respect to Naruto. "You know how much he hates funerals and Naruto was his close friends. They were friends even before you and Shikamaru knew each other. I think that he would not make it. " Ino said with sadness in her voice. "You saved my life Naruto, I'm sorry that I wasn't able to pay back. " Lee said with closed eyes. Tenten wasn't able to say anything because she knew Naruto too long so Neji helped her to get away from there before she could broke down.
"You maybe broke up with me but I feel that there was intention in your plans but I will always love you Naruto. You made my dream world real, you were the one who brought happines to heart of everyone in village. " Sakura said as she placed dozen of red roses on coffin. "Red roses? " Mebuki asked as Sakura nodded. "Naruto once said that flowers on coffin should represent love and not sadness. " Sakura said with weak smile on her face. "Maybe because he thought that it's better to show love and not sadness toward those who are not here with us. " Kizashi said as he placed hand on Sakura's shoulders. "You are right. Naruto always talked about it when we had some bad experience with death. " Kakashi who appeared from nowhere said. "Where were you Master Kakashi? " Sakura asked as she with her parents and Kakashi walked away from coffin. "I went to apologize. I went to apologize to Naruto's parents that I wasn't able to protect him. " Kakashi said as he lowered his head. "What will happen with us now? Sasuke is gone, Naruto isn't here with us anymore. " Sakura wondered as Kakashi sighed. "Team 7 is over. You are student of Lady Hokage so there is nobody left for me to teach. That's why I'm going to return to ANBU, I need to get all that sorrow from my heart. " Kakashi explained as everyone placed flowers on Naruto's coffin and gave him last goodbye.
Nara Clan Compound
Shikamaru was sitting outside dressed in black but he was looking on table with shogi. "You weren't on funeral. " Shikaku stated as he sat down next to Shikamaru. "Why should I? There is lot of sadness in village already. It will not help if I'm sad too. " Shikamaru stated as he looked down on table of shogi. "Wanna play? " Shikaku asked as he turned on table too. Shikamaru's answer was that he made his move and looked on his father. "You are not here to play. " Shikamaru said. "You didn't pay respect to Naruto. I thought that he was your friend. " Shikaku said as Shikamaru narrowed eyes on table. "He was idiot. He left without any help and that caused his downfall. " Shikamaru stated without any hint of emotion. "That's quite cold, don't you think? " Shikaku asked as Shikamaru threw table away and stood up. "What do you want to hear dad?! Of course that I miss him! He was my first friend! He was like my brother before Chōji and Sakura came to our lives! You also liked him like your own son! " Shikamaru snapped with tears in his eyes. "Then why you weren't at the funeral? " Shikaku asked simply as Shikamaru turned away and wiped all tears away. "I couldn't. I don't want to believe that he is really dead. " Shikamaru whispered and then he was turned around by his father who knelt in front of him and looked to eyes of young Nara. "We are shinobi Shikamaru. Someone like Naruto dies everyday, you can't allow it to hurt you. " Shikaku said as he hugged Shikamaru tightly. "But let it makes you stronger. "
Hokage's Office
"I can't believe that he is really gone. " Tsunade said as she poured cup of sake while Jiraya nodded. "We all believed that he is invincible but now we see that he was normal human just like us. " Jiraya stated as he placed his cup on table. "But there is something you need to know Tsunade. Reason why Naruto behaved so coldly. " Jiraya said as Tsunade narrowed eyes. "I don't know how he found out it but he discovered that human race face possible extinction. " Jiraya started his explaining and Tsunade's eyes immediately widened. "Do you remember all legends about Demon Nations? " Jiraya asked. "Yes I remember. Do you want to tell me that they are real? " Tsunade asked and Jiraya nodded his head. "Naruto told me that Demon Fox contacted Kurama and made some kind of deal with him. " Jiraya said but Tsunade had to interrupt. "When you talk about that fox, how is possible that he didn't escape from Naruto's body? " Tsunade wondered that how is possible that Kurama didn't escape from body of his host. "That's Naruto's work, he made sure that fox's chakra will stay with him even if he dies. " Jiraya said as Tsunade nodded with sigh. "Atleast village is safe from it. "
"But back to my explaining. Demon Fox made with Kurama deal that he will handle Naruto to Demons who want to turn him into one of them. With power of Demons Naruto could open closed portals to our World. He didn't know why they need us but he knew for sure that they are not going to kill us or make us their slaves, there is something different behind their plans. " Jiraya explained as Tsunade frowned. "But you said that it's reason why Naruto was so cold. " Tsunade said. "It's the reason why Naruto was cold because he wanted to handle Demons on his own. He placed on his body very dangerous seal which was stealing Kyūbi's chakra and was making it Naruto's own. That's why he thought that he can handle them. " Jiraya explained as Tsunade leaned back to her chair. "But what are we going to do now? " Tsunade asked as Jiraya shook his head. "I don't know Tsunade. We have no power to defeat demons who are strong like Kyūbi. " Jiraya replied honestly. "In fact we don't know if they invade our world because they lost their puppet and Naruto. " Jiraya finished his thought. "It will be hard future for us. But in same time we destroyed Akatsuki's plan. " Hokage said as she grabbed her head. "Or they will march to village, kill everybody in their way and take Naruto's body. " she said as Jiraya grabbed her shoulder. "Don't be so pesimistic Tsunade. We have lot of strong shinobi here who can stand against Akatsuki. " Jiraya said with smile as he looked out of window. "Look, even rain stopped. I think that Naruto is watching after us from up there. "
Restaurant
"I still can't believe that Naruto is dead and Sasuke is gone. " Kiba muttered while he grabbed his head and was looking down on his pork. "Don't be sad Kiba. I'm sure that Naruto is looking after us from up there, and about Sasuke. I don't know what to say. " Lee said as he slowly ate piece of pork. "I know that Sasuke is not main topic of conversation but something bugs me. Naruto knew why Sasuke left and he was willing to let him go, it doesn't fit that Sasuke was poisoned. " Ino said as everyone looked on her. "You were there too Sakura. Don't you think that I'm right? " Ino asked as she looked on Sakura. "You might be right Ino. Naruto always knew about everything and everyone. First he looked like he is going to stop Sasuke but then Sasuke said something and Naruto let him go. " Sakura said when really started to thinking about it. "I already asked Lord Jiraya and Lady Hokage, Naruto indeed knew why Sasuke left. " Kakashi who walked toward table with Asuma, Gai and Kurenai behind him said. "Are you sure Master Kakashi? " Ino asked as she stood up and Kakashi nodded as rest of Jōnin sat down. "By Lord Jiraya Naruto used some kind of mental technique before he died. It allowed Lord Jiraya to hear Naruto's voice in his head. He thinks that it was Sharingan's Genjutsu. " Kakashi explained as he also sat down. "But I was there when he died. He didn't use anything. " Sakura said because she remembers that moment very well. "Then you don't know Naruto very well. He has always made sure that he will leave anything what can help others. " voice from doors said as everyone looked there and saw Shikamaru standing there. "Shikamaru. " Sakura said with wide eyes. "You were his girlfriend so you should know that Naruto was thinking atleast two steps ahead. " Shikamaru said as he sat down. "I wouldn't be surprised if he returns from dead and will laugh on us. " Shikamaru said.
Meanwhile in Unknown World
"Where am I? " Naruto muttered as he looked around himself and saw nothing more than darkness. "You are between Life and Death. " dark voice said as Naruto immediately recognized the voice. "Death God? Where are you? " Naruto asked as two hooded Gods of Life and Death appeared like giants while Naruto was between their faces. "Why I'm here? I died. " Naruto said as he looked to eyes of Life God. "It doesn't matter that someone killed you. You have to pass trought gate of death to be really dead. " DG said as Naruto looked up and saw gate created from red chakra. "So I'm here to die. " Naruto said as he lowered head. "No. " LG said simply as Naruto looked on her. "No? What do you mean by that? " confused Naruto asked. "It means that you are not destined to die yet. " voice which Naruto also recognized said as three figures appeared around him. "Lady Calypso? Lord Fyo? " Naruto shuttered as he looked on leaders of Dragon and Phoenix Clan. Last figure who is there is something like lion and eagle in same time. "What are you doing here? " Naruto asked as third being answered. "We are here to bring you back to life. By the way I'm Eros, leader of Griffin Clan. " Eros, leader of Griffin Clan replied on Naruto's question while Naruto's eyes widened. "Bring me back to life? " Naruto shuttered as Guardians of Time nodded. "You are first human ever with potential to be something special, to be Keeper of Balance. " DG said as Naruto's eyes formed confused look. "Keeper of Balance? What is it? " Naruto questioned. "It's something very important Naruto. Keeper of Balance is someone who is protecting our universe, timeline and everything. " Calypso explained. "Don't bother him with it now Lady Calypso. He is still too young to understand it. " LG said as she and DG placed their hands on Naruto's shoulders. "Return to world of living stronger than ever before Naruto Namikaze and when you will be ready, you will find out what Keeper of Balance is. " DG said as Naruto started glowing. "Last question, how long I was dead? " Naruto asked. "Week. " DG said as leaders of Guardian Clans formed triangle around Naruto who second later vanished.
Village Hidden in Leaves – One week later – Cemetery
Sakura and Shikamaru were standing in front of Naruto's grave with sad expressions written in their faces. "Hello Naruto. I know that I'm coming here every day but I can't help myself. I miss you so much. " Sakura said with tears in her eyes as Shikamaru put his hand around her shoulder. "I never realized how much I need you in my life, even when you broke up with me you were still here and I had reason to live but now. " Sakura sobbed but then Shikamaru slapped her. "Stop Sakura! Do you really think that Naruto would want to see you like this? Look at you, you look like you walked out from nightmare of small kid. You are still depressed so snap out of it! " Shikamaru shouted on Sakura who just continued in crying. "I can't Shikamaru! He was my everything. " Sakura said back as Shikamaru grabbed her shoulders and made her look to his eyes. "You have parents, fiends and many more people who care about you. How do you think they would react if you commited suicide because of Naruto? " Shikamaru stated unaware that sky was in few seconds covered by dark clouds. "They would be broken just like you are! " Shikamaru said as sound of thunder filled the air until. "Sakura! Shikamaru! Look out! " Kakashi who just walked on cemetery shouted when he saw lightning coming down where Shikamaru and Sakura are standing, they quickly jumped away before lightning hit Naruto's grave and created pillar of light with red and blue lightning around it which reached to sky. "Are you okay? " Kakashi asked as he ran to Sakura and Shikamaru. "Yeah but what is this? " Shikamaru wondered while everyone in village was looking this amazing show. Many of shinobi appeared on cemetery and strangely most of them were from Rookie 12. "What is happening? Neji! Look to it! " Gai ordered as Neji nodded and activated Byakugan, his eyes immediately widened. "It's pure chakra but I can see something inside of it, it's chakra signature. " Neji shuttered as everyone's eyes widened. "You mean that? " Sakura shuttered but then pillar exploded and created wind wave which blew everyone away. When they stood up everyone concetrated their sight toward small crater which pillar destroyed on place where Naruto's grave should be. Everyone gasped when they saw that someone is kneeling there.
"I'm back. " voice which made everyone's blood to freeze said. "It can't be! " Jiraya shuttered as he and Tsunade just arrived on scene. Everyone looked there as last part of smoke vanished and everyone could see that red hair and azure eyes. "You thought that something like death can stop me? " person asked again as he walked closer to his friends. "Naruto. " Sakura shuttered with wide eyes as Naruto just in his black bodysuit walked out from smoke. "There is nothing what can stop me. " Naruto stated as he walked to Sakura and looked to her eyes. "I'm sorry that I made you desperate Sakura, I didn't want to. " Naruto said as he walked around Sakura to exit absolutely ignoring everyone else. "I hope that you are happy that I'm back. " Naruto said as he teleported away without any other word. "What the hell was that?! " Kiba exclaimed as he grabbed his head. "Did just Naruto rise from dead? " Asuma shuttered. "It seems that he did. He didn't change, he is just like few days before he died. Cold. " Kakashi said in same shock.
Namikaze Estate
"Wow, this was really something. " Naruto said with sigh as he lied down to his bed. "I can say the same thing. " voice inside Naruto's head as Naruto narrowed his eyes. "What do you want Kurama? " Naruto asked simply when he showed up in front of Kurama. "I'm just interested why I wasn't released from your body when you died? " Kurama said as he glared down on Naruto. "Because I deciced that if I will then nobody can't seal you again, your chakra would be sealed within me forever. " Naruto replied simply. "And why you didn't tell me about it? " Kurama asked as he gritted his teeth. "You can be my friend but you are also Tailed Beast which can be controlled by Sharingan, weapon which is enemy's hands so I can't allow that my death would cause destruction of village. " Naruto said simply as Kurama growled and closed his eyes. "I need him alive. Okay Naruto, I understand but next time atleast say something. " Kurama said as Naruto vanished from his mind and put mental barriers to blind Kurama's sight and hearing. "Don't worry Kurama. You will pay for everything you want to do. " Naruto thought and then he felt chakra signature in his window. "I understand why Tsunade hates you. Sneaking trought windows is really creepy. " Naruto said as he closed his eyes and Jiraya walked closer to him. "Care to tell me how you escaped from certain death? " Jiraya asked as he leaned against wall. "You wouldn't understand so I'm not going to bother with it. Simply, someone up there doesn't want me to be dead. " Naruto replied as Jiraya shook his head. "Do you know that you really know how to play cold-hearted bastard? " Jiraya laughed as Naruto stood up from his bed. "When are we leaving? " Naruto asked absolutely ignoring Jiraya's previous question. "You just rose from dead and you already want to go away? " Jiraya asked as Naruto turned around and glared to his eyes. "What do you think? " Naruto asked as Sharingan appeared in his eyes. "Tonight, West Gate. I'll be waiting. " Jiraya said before he walked out from Naruto's room.
Hokage's Office
"You can't be serious Jiraya! " Tsunade yelled on Jiraya who stood there like statue with crossed arms on chest. "It's his choice, not mine. " Jiraya said simply but Tsunade slammed her hands on table. "But he just returned from death! Don't you understand it?! He was dead and now he isn't! " Tsunade continued in yelling while Jiraya only sighed. "You can't stop him Tsunade. He will rather become Missing Ninja than just sit here and do nothing while hundreds of innocent lifes are wasted in Mist. " Jiraya said as Tsunade sat down and leaned to her chair. "How long you will be gone? " Tsunade gave up, she will let Naruto to leave village. "Atleast two and half year. " Jiraya replied simply as Tsunade sighed one more time. "Do you really think that he needs so much training? " she asked as Jiraya shook his head and that caused confused expression to appear on Tsunade's face. "Then what are you going to do when you will not train? " Tsunade asked and this time Jiraya sighed, again. "That's thing which only Naruto can answer you because I don't have any word here. " Jiraya replied as he looked out from window. "He has many things to do Tsunade and let's just say that many of them are things which normal person like us can't handle. " Jiraya explained. "But you are overlooking the fact that he was also killed like normal person! " Tsunade exclaimed as she stood up from her desk. "And then just woke up from dead like not normal person usually does. " Jiraya literally made Tsunade to shut up. "Have you really to leave tonight? " Tsunade asked her last questioned when she saw Jiraya open window. "Yes, farewell Tsunade. I will keep you posted. " Jiraya said before he jumped out from window.
Namikaze Estate
Jiraya immediately informed Naruto that they can leave tonight and then went back home to prepare everything what he will need but Naruto had one big thing to do before he will leave the village. He placed seal over Namikaze Estate which will prevent everyone from entering it. He did his work and then noticed chakra signature behind him. "What do you need? " Naruto asked as he turned around and looked on person behind him. "Ino. " Naruto finished his questioned as he looked on Ino. "At first, where are you going? " she asked when she noticed small backpack on Naruto's back and large scroll around his waist. "I'm leaving on Training Trip with Master Jiraya. " Naruto replied simply. "Don't you think that you should atleast inform Sakura? You maybe broke up with her but she still loves you. " Ino said as Naruto sighed. "Tsunade will inform her. Do you need something else? " Naruto asked as he crossed arms on chest. "Yes, you let Sasuke leave village and I think that you had good reason to do it. Me, Shikamaru and Sakura agreed that you always have reason. " Ino wondered as Naruto walked closer to her. "Yes, I had reason to let him and he had reason to leave. " Naruto replied as he prepared to walk away but Ino stopped him. "So you have reason why you broke up with Sakura. " Ino said and Naruto stopped in his tracks. "Yes. As you said, behind everything I do are some reasons. " Naruto said as he looked on Ino last time. "You can tell her that it's not her fault but mine that I broke up with her. Farewell Ino, in three years I should be back. " Naruto said before he vanished in darkness of night. "Return soon Naruto, Sakura needs you. " Ino muttered before she walked away from Namikaze Estate.
West Gate
"I thought that you will be here alone, Jiraya. " Naruto stated as he appeared on West Gate and saw Jiraya standing there with Tsunade. "She is Hokage. She can do whatever she wants. " Jiraya grumpled as Naruto jumped down and looked to Tsunade's eyes. "What do you need Lady Hokage? " Naruto asked coldly but in same time politely. "My godson is going to bloody war and he is asking me what I'm doing here? " Tsunade asked as Naruto narrowed eyes. "You don't concern about war. You concern about my time away from village. Three years are lot of time. " Naruto asked as he looked straight to Tsunade's eyes and put his hood over head. "Farewell Lady Hokage. " Naruto said as he turned around and walked away but before that he turned on Tsunade last time. "And please, explain everything to Sakura. Ino already knows one part of truth so you tell her other one, that I need to leave village and return in three years. " Naruto said as Tsunade saw in his eyes hint of emotion, one single specific emotion, love. "I will. Farewell Naruto. " Tsunade said with weak smile as Naruto turned around and changed on Storm Titan. "Are you coming Master Jiraya? " Naruto asked as Jiraya jumped on his back. "See you soon Tsunade. " Jiraya said as Naruto took off and flew away. "It's interesting that he didn't feel that you are here, Sakura. " Tsunade said as she turned around and saw Sakura walking away from corner of buliding. "Maybe he felt. He told you to tell me something, maybe because he couldn't handle it by himself. " Sakura said with weak smile as she looked toward night sky. "I don't know why but I feel much better, I feel that he is doing all of this for better future. " Sakura said as she closed eyes and Tsunade grabbed her shoulder. "I'm sure that he is. It's our Naruto after all, and our Naruto has reason for everything he does. " Tsunade said with chuckle as she and Sakura turned around and walked back to village.
Borders with Village Hidden in Mist
Three figures were waiting at the coast while thick mist were all around them covering their tracks. "Where is Lord Jiraya? He told us that he will be here. " one of figures who is probably woman asked as other one, much taller growled. "Be quiet, he has lot of time. " other one said with sigh. "I don't think so. I see two chakra signatures in air, prepare. " third one said as everyone got to defence stance and then strong wind wave blew away all mist around them and massive Storm Titan landed in front of them. "You should know that your mist isn't too good against Wind Release users. " Naruto said as he changed back on human and looked on three persons in front of him. "Zabuza. " Naruto said with devil smirk as Zabuza's jaw hit the ground. "You?! " Zabuza yelled as he pointed on Naruto. "Long time no see you Zabuza, Haku. " Naruto said as he looked on third one who was glaring on him. "Lord Jiraya, I believe that you are joking. You told us that you will bring Demon of the Red Moon. " third person said as Naruto's eyes narrowed and Jiraya chuckled. "Stop joking Ao. This kid is Demon of the Red Moon. He once kicked my ass. " Zabuza said as Naruto smirked but Ao didn't look to be much impressed. "I expected someone who look tougher. " Ao said as he turned around but the he froze on place. "And I thought that only human who has Byakugan and it's not from Leaf should know that look isn't everything. " Naruto said while he was releasing his killer intent on Ao who collapsed on knees. "Calm down Naruto, he isn't our enemy. " Jiraya said as he grabbed Naruto's shoulder who released his killer intent and Ao was finally able to breath. "Impossible! I never was so pinned to ground, literally. Only one could do something like that, Uchiha Shisui. " Ao thought as he stood up and looked on others. "So we are here done. Come, you have to meet leader of our resistance. " Ao said as he walked to boat slowly followed by others.
HQ of Resistance – Few hours later
Naruto was walking around room in which was he and Jiraya waiting. "What takes them so long? It's so hard to tell someone that we arrived? " Naruto asked with loud growl as Jiraya sighed. "What is happening with you? Are you nervous? " Jiraya asked as Naruto glared on him. "No but I don't see point in this, we are standing here while we can be out in field helping to stop this pointless war. " Naruto replied back as Haku walked out from doors. "Our leader is expecting you. " Haku said simply as she walked back to room from which she walked out and Naruto with Jiraya were right behind her. "I must say that you made me worried Lord Jiraya when you said in your letter that fearsome Demon of the Red Moon died. " female who sat in chair turned around from Jiraya and Naruto said as Naruto sighed. "Great I have to listen some woman. " Naruto muttered as mentioned woman turned around and her eyes narrowed. "What is this brat doing here? " she hissed as Naruto chuckled and looked on Jiraya. "You didn't mention that I'm thirteen years old? " Naruto asked as Jiraya chuckled nervously. "Lady Terumi, this is Naruto Namikaze, Demon of the Red Moon. " Jiraya introduced Naruto but leader of Resistance, Mei Terumi was still glaring on him. "You can't be serious Lord Jiraya, you said that you will bring- " Mei snapped but then Zabuza grabbed her shoulder. "Calm down Lady Terumi, this boy is truly Demon of the Red Moon. I fought him once and I got my ass kicked. " Zabuza said as Mei looked back on Naruto who sighed. "Are we going to already kill someone or are we going to just wait and do nothing? " Naruto asked like nothing as Mei narrowed her eyes again. "Don't play tough guy kid, you are on- " Mei stated but she stopped in mid sentence when she gasped and her eyes widened from shock because incredible killer intent surrounded her. "Please, continue. I will gladly kill you. " Naruto said coldly as he released his killer intent and looked away from Mei who was able to catch her breath.
"Do you have any plan how to get rid of Yagura? " Jiraya asked as Mei nodded. "We will be attacking- " Mei was about to say but Naruto interrupted her immediately. "Boring. Just give me target, it will save lot of time. " Naruto interruped as Mei glared on him. "Good plan Naruto, I knew that it will be something smart, here. " Jiraya said as he clapped with his hands and handed Naruto scroll while Mei was watching this with jaw on her table and tick mark on her forehead. "Three targets? " Naruto questioned as he read down only three names while Mei's eyes widened. "Don't tell me that you are going send him after three generals?! " Mei snapped as Jiraya raised hand. "Calm down. Yes, he is going after three generals. " Jiraya said calmly as he looked on Naruto. "Anything more? " Naruto asked as Jiraya nodded. "Three brothers, each of them is dangerous but nothing you can't handle. First is Emori Retsu, youngest one, he runs a prison where is many of our prisoners, free them. " Jiraya explained and Naruto nodded. "Second one, Aomori, factory for weapons, must be destroyed. Last one, the oldest and strongest, Suomori. He is commander of ANBU HQ. Do what you see as right but kill him. " Jiraya gave Naruto last informations who second later put his hood on. "I want you to be back at sunrise. " Jiraya said before Naruto vanished leaving shocked audience. "Do you really think that he can handle it all? He has only six hours until sunrise. " Zabuza questioned as Jiraya chuckled. "Wanna bet that he will make it in three hours? " Jiraya asked with smirk.
