The Infamous Man has a Naruto/Bleach challenge on his profile [Naruto is executed after VoTE and becomes Ulquiorra Schiffer, or anyone from else from Bleach, comes back and ends up with Hinata] which is fairly interesting. I've read some of the work that was written in response and some are brilliant... And some suck in my opinion [but that's just my opinion and I advise all of you to go and read a few to make up your own minds]. This is a similar idea I had in and around the time I started hanging around TIM's forum and reading his ideas/challenges, that said it is not me taking the challenge and so if at any point I don't follow his requirements don't have a go at me over it.
Another chapter, another attempt to entertain you all. I honestly do not have anything else to add, so on with the show!
Naruto belongs to Masashi Kishimoto .
Bleach belongs to Tite Kubo.

This seal is far my complex than anything I've ever seen..." The seal master explained. "The Fourth's Eight Trigrams Seal is different, cruder than the Four Symbols Seal! If this was the seal of an Uzumaki I would know where to begin to safely undo it so you could take the demon... I don't know if it was haste or just that we gave Namikaze too much credit as a seal master. I'll need days of study to find any safe method of removing it."
"Safe for who?" Danzo asked. "Are you saying the Kyuubi could reform here? I called on you because you are one of the most skilled seal masters in Fire Country!"
"The boy is an Uzumaki, maybe the last but still one of them, and so he could survive if the extraction is done right. He'd be weak, but with treatment he'll survive." The seal master explained. "If I rush, the boy won't last the hour... Now I'll need my tome, I need to study the design."
"The boy is of no consequence, only the Kyuubi. Get it!" Danzo ordered. "Besides, the boy won't last the hour anyway, he has a meeting with the executioner at noon."
"What?" The seal master shouted. "But but... The Fourth!... His..."
"Yes our Fourth Hokage, Minato Namikaze, sacrificed his only son to ensure Konoha retained control of the Kyuubi's power. I know he would agree that his son's death is an acceptable trade to allow Konoha to harness that power." Danzo explained. " Transfer the demon into the new host, do it quick!"
"But, this seal has been touched by the Spirit of Death!" The old seal master tried to explain. "This goes far beyond any normal seal... The demon is bound to his very soul, to rush this could cause immense damage... He might not be able to enter the Pure World!"
"The father sacrificed his son, now the son sacrifices his soul... We should all hope to be as great a shinobi one day." Danzo said before leaving.
"I'm sorry child." The seal master whispered to the sedated Naruto. When the new host arrived, the seal master began to destroy the Eight Trigrams Seal.

"This is ridiculous!" Koharu Utatane objected. "The boy succeeded in his mission, The Uchiha is back and you plan to execute him?"
"Yes, it makes no sense." Homura Mitokado added. "If anything it should be the Uchiha who is here."
"Sasuke Uchiha is still recovering from his battle against the demon." Danzo said. "That he succeed in preventing the Kyuubi from breaking free has more than earned him a full pardon."
"A full pardon!" Koharu screamed. "Lady Tsunade, you cannot have agreed to this? Any of this!"
"I'm not happy about it, but it has to be done." Tsunade sighed. "But Danzo is right, the Kyuubi almost broke free and we cannot risk it happening again... I'm sorry Naruto."
"Begin the execution!" Danzo ordered.
"This is outrageous, you can't do this." Koharu and Homura both cried out.

The 'Spirit of Death', a Shinigami, looked up as he sensed an important soul had it's Chain of Fate break.
"Who's died this time?" The ancient being wondered as it faded away, transporting itself to whatever corner of this artificial world he'd find the soul. "feels strong, maybe it's that pain Orochimaru. Would serve him right, consuming souls like some pitiful Hollow."

"Oh my!" The Shinigami muttered as he appeared and saw the mess before him. Fragments of the soul floated around him, some even left a trail out of the chamber. "What happened here?"
As he began to gather up the fragments in the hope of putting the soul back together, the Shinigami wondered where he knew the soul from. As he picked up each piece he examined it, hoping to spot something that would job his memory. When he came across a piece that was much larger then the others, he paused.
"Wait a minute..." The Shinigami muttered before reaching down his throat and removing the entwined souls of Minato Namikaze and the Kyuubi's Yin chakra. Looking between the two he realised that one was a piece of the other. Ramming the entwined souls back into his stomach, the Shinigami looked around and spotted another large piece. "... Damn."
He'd messed up, the Shinigami had messed up bad. While that Namikaze guy having split off a section of his soul wasn't a big deal, the rest was in his gut and so no one would know, that the Uzumaki girl had done the same was bad. He'd already sent her on to Soul Society, and if the Spirit King found out he'd sent an incomplete soul there he'd lose the cushy job he'd scored when he retired from the Royal Guard. Remembering how both had thrown themselves in front of the child that had been there when they had died, which must be where he recognised the soul from, he thought of a plan to fix the damaged soul before him and cover up his own mistake.
"Don't worry kid, mom and dad are gonna make the pain go away..." The Shinigami muttered before he ripped the fragments of Minato's and Kushina's souls apart and used them to patch up Naruto's soul. Picking up his Tanto, the Shinigami preformed a Soul Burial on Naruto's patchwork soul. "Hehe, now don't tell a soul about those souls okay?"

Fairly short, just the death of the flesh [ie Naruto's body dying] and him being sent to Soul Society. Might do the death of the spirit [ie him ceasing to be the boy from Kishimoto's work and slowly growing into the man from Tite's work] another time.
Danzo was using Shisui's eye to make Tsunade agree, he also removed the Kyuubi in secret without telling anyone... Has anyone else done a 'Naruto is Executed/Exiled after VoTE' where neither Koharu or Homura agree with Danzo?
I'm dyslexic, so please point out any mistakes in spelling or grammar [I spell things the way they do in England and Ireland, so some things may look off to Americans]. Please leave your opinion via review or send them via PM, I'd like to know what you think. Well, I think that's everything I've gotta say so, hope you enjoyed the chapter.
This is Highvalour saying bye and thanks for reading.
