Kenshin: Yo. Here is the 36 chapter to Angel Eyes. I would say what's about to happen, but then again that wouldn't be very entertaining now would it?
Zeke: It's Tayuya and Tsunade versus Zetsu, with the history to the Juubi.
Kenshin: Didn't I say that wouldn't be fun?! Oh well, time for disclaimer, Savy?

Chapter 36: Juubi no Waniryu: Uchiha Madara
Out from the shadows of the cave stepped the Akatsuki Leader. His face shown as a pale with green tinted face, with amber spiky hair, and the darkest red eyes ever known to man. Only one word would describe who he looked like: Uchiha.
"You're an Uchiha?! Who are you?!" Naruto yelled, trying to understand who he was. Gaara was gaping as well, staring at the so called leader revealed to be an Uchiha. Said man only laughed. "I'm pretty sure your tenant told you about a person with chakra more evil than his own, has he?"
That popped into his mind, as he thought back to the last words Kyubi said before he trapped him inside his soul.
Flashback no Jutsu...
Naruto holds his sword up to him, and then it turns into pieces. The black shards formed into his hand in the shape of a ball. Chakra then started to swirl around it, forming into a black and red Rasengan. Naruto then disappeared in a flash, appearing in front of Kyubi who was caught offguard, and slammed the spiraling sphere into the heart of the wicked beast.
The ball then started to release the wind inside, making a bloody hole inside the fox demon. The rest of the sphere then turned into Kuroi Getsuga, sticking inside of Kyubi's chest. The blood that was spilt from his wound started to consume Kyubi. His clothes then started to become black, as they faded away into nothingness.
"I see. So you really are strong. It seems you have discovered your true powers, and have finally defeated me. I guess there's no way around it. I have to disperse into the center of your heart and soul." Kyubi announced in defeat. Naruto then smirked, as he slowely pulled his sword out. "Goodbye Kyubi. I'll see you when the shinigami comes for me."
Kyubi then grabbed his sword, with his still undeformed right hand. "But remember this:I won't stay gone! I will be back, and next time things won't end so well! Anyone of the two of us can become the king, or the tool. So beware:If you EVER, EVER give me the chance, I'll drag you off of your throne and crush your heart with all my might!!"
His arm then disappears, along with the top part of his head. But before he could disappear completely, he left one more piece of information. "One more thing:There is one more reason I attacked Konoha, someone else was there for me to kill;someone whos chakra is even more evil than my own. When I disappear, and you receive my memories, ask your teacher about a man who goes by the name of Uchiha Madara..."
End Flashback...
Naruto gaped at him, as the words were taken out of his mouth. "Uchiha Madara. I see, that's why he said your chakra was more foul than his: It wouldn't make sense for a human to be stronger than a demon like Kyubi. But wait...I thought there were only 9 bijus. You just took Gaara's Ichibi, and you sealed the other 7 with him as well, so who the hell are you!?"
Madara sighed, walking towards him. "I am the Juubi no Waniryu, the ten tailed alligator dragon. I used to be the most powerful biju in this world and Makai, as no one was able to challenge me. My most trusted and loyal servant was Yoko, the Kyubi inside you. Then he betrayed me, because I wished to combine demons with humans fully and completely, so we could reshape the world into our image." Naruto looked at him like he was stupid.
"You wanted to control our world?! Is that why you sealed those demons inside that thing?!" He said, pointing to the statue. Madara shook his head again. "Actually, it was to break the curse."
Both Gaara and Naruto paused, thinking what did he mean by that. "Curse?" asked Gaara.
"Exactly. Kyubi, and the rest of those biju inside that statue cursed me into this human form! They captured a human child and sealed me into it the same way your father sealed Kyubi inside you, Uzumaki, with the help of the Shinko Shinigami." Madara continued, looking down at him. "Years later the seal broke and I was thrown into the dakr recesses of his soul. It was only a year after that that I broke free and fused with him body, mind, and soul. We have become the same person, devoid of emotions and feelings, except hatred and vengence."
Naruto's eyes went wide, as he listened to Madara speak. It was only so long until after Kyubi was thrown into his soul's pits, infact in only two months it would be exactly a year. And after listening to what he said, it scared him inside. "So, if I continue to live the way I do, then I'll-"
"Become one with the demon inside you!" He finished, forcing Naruto to lose his breathing, thinking about what might happen if he and Kyubi became one, and how this would affect Tenten and the others. 'Wait, Tenten!' "Where's Tenten?! Give her back!!" He yelled, remembering his purpose for coming.
"I'm not done my story! I will not have you die ignorant of why I killed you!" Madara said, turning his face and slowely walking to a dark room. "Naruto, ever since I joined together with the original Uchiha Madara, we started Akatsuki, and collected missing ninjas from the world, the very best, to become demon hunters and take down every single one of those biju. All of the original members have died out, save Zetsu, and if I'm not mistaken, he and Deidara will be dead by the time I'm done with you.
Naruto, the only way to break me free from this human and assume my rightful place as Demon Lord of Hell, I had to capture and seal them up, then send them back to hell where the curse would go away and free me forever!"
"So all this time, you've issued the deaths of so many people just so you can become your true self?! No matter what sort of power you wished, to kill people off for it is wrong!!" Naruto said, forcing a laugh from the Uchiha who turned back to face him. "People are afraid of those who have power, even if they are your comrads. Sooner or later, the people you cherish will leave you to die or try to kill you. There is no point in helping people when they'll only hate you in the end." He makes it to the start of the hole. "Your fiance is inside here."
Naruto's eyes went wide, as he rushed inside at the speed of Hiraishin. Madara only smirked evilly as he ran in, as he left for another tunnel, before he was stopped by Gaara. "REgardless of what you think, Naruto's right. Killing others for your own reasons is never good. I used to do it to verify my existence, but not anymore after I lost to him. And if you plan on actually freeing yourself, then you need to kill Naruto, am I right?"
"Correct. I can't remove Kyubi from his body because it's attached to his soul, and there's no way to remove him unless the Shinko Shinigami removes Kyubi himself. And I seriously doubt that'll happen, so I'll send him to hell alongside Kyubi!" He roared, grabbing his neck and throwing him into the air. He then flashed towards the tunnel, going deeper inside.
With Naruto...
Said Kyubi vessel ran deeper inside the cave, searching for the girl he loves so dearly. Running deeper he finds Tenten, tied up on a cross. She looked exactly the same as how she left, which meant to him that she was ok. He immediately rushed to her side, holding his former Kuroi Getsuga and cut her down. She fell to the ground, but he grabbed onto her and saved her before she could touch the ground. He placed a hand onto her. cheek, kissing her lips in hopes of waking her up. It worked, as her eyes opened up to look upon his. "It's good to see you, my lovely angel."
"Oh, Naru-kun...you're here. I'm so glad you're still alive!" She said, glomping onto him tight in hopes to never let him go. "What? I was worried they'd hurt you! Did they?!"
"Oh no. The entire time I was here I was hanging on the cross under the watchful eyes of that man with the red eyes. He said he wanted me alive in order to kill you. I couldn't bear the fact of you dying, let alone me being the cause of it." She cried into his shoulders, as he placed a hand around her back, pulling her in closer. "Ten-chan, let's go. I have some unfinished business with this bastard."
Back With Zetsu...
"I'll feed you all to the plants." Zetsu said, as vines rised up to trap Jiraiya and Tsunade. The vines formed into cages and rose up high into the sky. "That only leaves you two: a mother medic, and an injured whipswoman." He said, looking back at Tayuya and Shizune. The fox ninja's mother handed something over to Tayuya, a tiny pill colored in blue and red. She took it and ate the thing, as she felt herself feel stronger than before. "I'll kill him myself."
The whipsgirl pulls forth her segmented weapon, then swung it at Zetsu, hoping to strike the plantman's head off. not even looking at it, he blocked the attack with the backhand of his fist. Both of them gasped after seeing it, as Zetsu morphed into the ground. Shizune looked around the place, trying to find a way to flush him out. That's when something came to mind. "I got it! Tayuya-san, use that technique you used before, then turn the place into a giant swamp! I have a way to flush him out!" She yelled, doing some hand signs. Soon Tayuya did the same things from before, summoning her bone snake whip into her possession.
"Doton: Yomi Numa no Jutsu!" She yelled, as the entire place became an entire swamp. The whole fighting grounds became muddy and hard to move in, which was exactly what Shizune wanted.
"Fukumikuchi Hari!" Shizune spat out some needles dripping with purple liquid as they struck the surrounding area. The liquid oozed into the swamp, as the ground began to break up. Zetsu rises up with his body changing in color. He also seemed to be completely black in color on his face as he was very angry at them.
"You stupid little bitch! How dare you poison my environment!? Unforgivable! It's unforgivable!!" He yelled, as he did some more handsigns.
"Mukoton: Gyousei Ijin Satsu no Jutsu!!" He began to completely change, as his body turned into a giant flower rose. It grew to the size of the Hokage monument. Then the flower fell to face them, as it opened up to reveal a venus flytrap mouth. Inside it was Zetsu's face.
"Feed...me...now..." Was all that came out, as he looked at him. Up in the vine cages Tsunade and Jiraiya were busy trying to free themselves, but failed as the vines were a bit different from before. 'I see. These vines absorb chakra. That's why we can't break them. I hope Jiraiya knows and stops.' Tsunade thinks, but feels as he doesn't know, since he keeps struggling.
Shizune shot back more needles at the giant thing, but it didn't even affect it. Vines shot out from the mouth and flung towards her, but she grabbed a kunai and began to cut some down before they could reach her.
"Hikotsu Taihou!" Tayuya shouted as she shot her signature blast towards the plant. The bone snake flew towards Zetsu, as it shot at the mouth. The plant closed its mouth and blocked it, as it seemed unfazed by it. 'Damn! Even though Shizune and Tsunade healed me, I can't seem to fight fully. I need an idea...an idea...That might work!!'
"Shizune! Can you get closer to him!?" She asked, hoping Shizune knew where Tayuya was getting at. "Ok sure." She said, running towards the plant. Of course she couldn't move any good because of the swamp, but she still tried. "Get ready to die!" Shizune yelled, as a vine flung towards her, whipping her in the face. More soon followed as they knocked her vision clean. They then wrapped around her and held her up, drawing her towards the mouth of the venus flytrap as it opened its mouth.
"Feed...me...now...with...blood!" Zetsu roared, as he was about to eat her, when...
"Shikomishindan!" Shizune yelled, opening her eyes and holding her wrist out in a 'I love you' handsign as a couple of needles shot out and impaled Zetsu's face, as the poison sunk into his face, forcing him to cry out in pain. His pain allowed her to wiggle out the vines and jump away from the plant. "Tayuya, now!"
"Chakra aura cuffs! Energi Senkai!!" Tayuya said, as the hidden chakra chains around her arms were removed, releasing a tremendous shockwave of chakra. This was enough to burn away the swamp around them, as she swung her whip up in the air.
"Higa Zekkou!!" She yelled as the snake whip flew towards the venus flytrap, the bone segments disconnecting and such, with the only thing holding them together being her chakra in between each one. The segments surrounded the plant, then became extra sharp, impaling the plant. It flailed around in such a serious manner, as it spat out blood, or green blood if that's what you like to call it. The vine cages began to weaken, as Tsunade and Jiraiya fell to the ground free. "Alright! Hey, where's Katsuya?" asked Jiraiya.
"Oh, she went away." said Tsunade, looking at the falling plant with red energy spears sticking out of its body. It then started to fling around, as it began to shrivel up into a dry little piece of nothing. The spears went away, and then Zetsu's head fell out of the thing, it was shriveled up as well, then it turned to dust.
"I guess the poison went through his system faster than I thought. let's forget him, and go after Naruto-kun!" Said Shizune, running towards the cave. The others went with her, as Tayuya fell to her knees unable to move on, as her weapon dispelled and became normal. "You did good, Tayuya. Yonnin good as it seems." said Tsunade, bringing a smile onto her face. "Oh good. I can become just l..ike...Haku-chan..." She said before she passed out. Tsunade picked her up and carried the tired newly awarded Yonnin.
Back With Haku...
Haku was about to stab into Deidara, but missed as he used substitution to get out of the way. teh clay artist then created a clay scorpion and sat on top of it, as it stabbed its stinger towards Haku. The ice Yonnin began struttering some quick reflexes, then pulled somehting out from the bottom of the hilt, a chain with a crescent moon at the end of it. He threw it at the stinger, forcing it down to the ground. He began some handseals.
"Hyoton: Hyorinryu!" He yelled as ice formed around the blade of the sword. He jumped into the air and swung it at Deidara, as a light blue chinese dragon flew towards the clay artist. "That technique won't work. And here's why." The Akatsuki member said. As soon as the dragon was about to make contact with the scorpion, Deidara jumped off, as it blew up before it could freeze. completely. With ice still surrounding his sword, he swung again at the artist, but he made some clay bombs out of his hands and threw them at the dragon, as it blew up too. This shockwave blew Haku back into the ceiling, then crashing down into the ground. "Kuso! I won't lose to you!"
Deidara began to laugh maniaxally. "Is that the best a ninja like you can do?! Your ice attacks can't freeze something that will blow up first, Hyo-chan!"
"Be quiet! I'll find a way to beat you!!" Haku yelled, as he felt the killer intent coming from Deidara, despite his calm appearance. He did some familiar handseals, as something erupted from the water.
"Hyoton:Itsukaku Hakuegi!" Haku roared, as a giant whale emmerged from the pool of water beside them, jumping towards Deidara. 'This won't work my friend. Prepare to die.'
Deidara made a giant cannonball, and threw it towards the whale. It indeed was destroyed, as icicles shot back at Haku. 'Damn! This is gonna hurt!'
