In a dim lighted cave a statue was placed with blindfold on its head and both hands were tied together with the chains. There stood 10 figure in which 8 were hologram and 2 solid bodies, one of 2 body had a big 3 bladed scythe while latter had mask coved half his face, both cloaks were slightly tattered.

And before them a female body with green hair and dark skin were levitating in air in front of statue with wide eyes and mouth open in a silent scream. From the body a large amount of chakra was leaking to the statue before it dimmed out and body fell with thud.

"Phew.. that took longer then Yonbi, guess these fucking monsters powers really were measured by their tails." Loudly complaint the guy with 3 bladed scythe, Hidan.

"We would have been done sooner had you defeated the Nanabi jinchuriki quicker, time is money and i don't like it to be wasted rookie 2nd rated undead" a called out grump voice, Kakazu.

"Fuck you bastard, it's always money this, money that with you, she was strong that's why it's best to enjoy the pain together, but damn it's such a shame she would have been a glorious sacrifice to lord Jashin." Hidan said with displeased face!

"We don't kill a Jinchuriki before extracting its Bijuu, Hidan" said one of the hologram with eyes like rippled spreads across it's eyeball. His name 'Pein' the leader of s rank criminal gang Akatsuki "now only Ichibi, Sanbi, Gyuuki and Kyuubi remains, Ichibi is currently appointed as Kazekage attacking him now would paint a meaningless target on our back, same as Gyukki as he is under considerable protection of Raikage, meanwhile Sanbi whereabouts are still unknown, and Jinchuriki of kyuubi is travelling with Jiraiya of Sannin." Pein Address the other figures in cave before turning towards Zetsu " Zetsu here is keeping track of them, Deidara and Sasori you two are going to hidden mist to further investigate of Sanbi, until further explanation everybody will remain standby" the hologram of Pein disappear along with everyone else leaving only two figure in cave.

Somewhere in village hidden in the spring in the middle of destroyed forest were 2 peoples and humanoid sized toad, one was bleeding profusely while other was unconscious while toad was tending to the injured man

"Shit, that was terrible" groaned the bloodied man as he was treated by the humanoid sized toad with medical healing jutsu.

"Terrible is undermining it, you nearly died Jiraiya sama" said the toad "Naruto sama is not yet ready to tap in Kyuubi chakra, even by other Bijuu comparison it's chakra is so sinister , I don't think it possible for a human to control it!".

"I know it's sinister, but people of past had controlled it. people like Shodai hokage and Madara uchiha. Plus Minato believe in him to be able to control kuubi's chakra otherwise he wouldn't leave kyuubi sealing key with me, " now identified as Jiraiya grabbed the bag of water as he gulped in down his throat and groaned in pain as it hurt his chest.

"Jiraiya sama please remain still" toad concentrate on healing before a idea popped in his head "Jiraiya sama why don't you try doing it with Naruto sama clones like how you taught him sealing jutsus and elemental Ninjutsu with his clone".

"Do I look like idiot Gamahiro?!, we already tried that but it's just like sage jutsu, his clone conscious in kyuubi chakra state come back to him when dispelled meaning it double edged sword."

While Jiraiya was being treated by Gamahiro, some distance away Zetsu who was watching whole confrontation shrunk back in the piles of fallen trees.

In mist village thousands upon thousands of people were gather in front of the renovated Mizukage head office, load cheers were erupting throughout the village as the coronation of fifth Mizukage was being held today.

Standing over the tallest building in village a figure with spiral mask was watching the Coranatrion being held in village before a black/white Zetsu emerges besides him.

"Are you angry? That mist now won't be under your control!" black Zetsu spoke.

"What do you want Zetsu? You know I don't care about this temporary peace!" Tobi looked over Zetsu.

"We have information on Kyuubi brat" seeing Tobi listening, he contined "jiraiya of sannin was training kyubi brat to control the beast chakra when he let loose of fourth seal on boys and is now gravelly injured, now might be the right time to obtain Kyuubi".

"Hmm.. where are they right now?"

"Hidden in the spring, Outskrits of the village in north west"

Gamahiro brought the Jiraiya and Naruto back to the inn where they were staying for time being.

Naruto was still unconscious from using Kyuubi while Jiraiya was mostly healed with Bandged around his chest.

"That's enough Gamahiro, thanks for healing me! You can leave now!" Jiraiya poke out his head from his futon.

"As you wish Jiraiya sama!"Toad bow and 'puff' Disappear into smoke.

'Sigh' "that's gonna leave a nasty scar" exclaimed Jiraiya as he looked down at his chest, before a idea popped into his head as he giggle perversely "but it would make a great story to tell a women with just a little bit of exaggeration" . 'Oh Jiraiya sama! You are so brave!' he imagined and continue to giggle.

"Well I'm a big fan of your jiraiya of sannin, you sure write some excellent novel"

In instinct with serious look in his eyes Jiraiya suddenly jumping up from futon with Rasengan in hand, jiraiya charged towards the source of comment only for him to pass though him.

CRASH!

Half side of their room exploded from the impact of Rasengan, emerging from the rubble of half destroyed building Jiraiya saw Naruto wasn't there instead in his futon the guy with orange spiral mask standing over it "where's Naruto and who are you?" he asked in deadly serious voice 'I didn't even sense that guy, I'm pretty sure my attack just passed though him, is he using body flicker technique? No that's not it, he was just standing there as if to invite me to attack him' he sweats as he start gathering natural energy around him 'he's dangerous'.

"Who am I? Didn't I just told you I'm big fan of yours! As for Naruto don't worry about him, he's unharmed…. For now" Tobi casually replied.

"Fan of mine? I didn't know that my Icha-Icha series fan following reached even Akatsuki members!" 'Dammit! What kind of technique is he using?! I need to stall him for bit to go into sage mode' he replied

Chuckilng at jiraiya obito replied "you sure are informed guy aren't you Jiraiya of Sannin and I'm not talking about your porn book, you know the one with gutsy ninja named Naruto! Do you really believe in peace like that?!"

"As a matter of fact I do! Now that you know my answer leave Naruto here and I will let you leave unharmed! Oh wait.. I might even give you my autograph".

"You're mistaken Jiraiya, peace cannot be achieved like that!" suddenly the air around become tense as his Sharingan shone brightly inside his mask "peace you dream is illusion".

Jiraiya tense as he saw sharingan in his right eye, swallowing hard he asked through clenched teeth "are you Madara uchiha?" ' it makes sense why I couldn't even sense him he must be strong'

"You master and pupil really think alike don't you? What will you do even if that were the case, you can't even touch me in your current condition" indicating his bandaged chest he took a slow step towards him.

Connecting all the dot his eyes widen in realization "you're the one behind kyuubi attack on Konoha? Aren't you! That Minato, he must have dealt you a considerable damage considering you didn't show your mug after all these years, Minato isn't one to go down without a fight!" absurdly releasing his killer intent he quickly formed Summoning jutsu hand seal "kuchiyose no Jutsu" a small smoke formed on the ground.

"Kid! Why d'ya always summon us while I'm in the middle of cookin'!" came an angry high pitch female voice

"Now calm down ma, Jiraiya-chan always has his reason to summon us" came a soft voice trying to calm down his wife.

"fer cryin' out load, shut up, pa!"

Ignoring ma, pa asked  "Jiraiya chan weren't ya always complainin' that tha way form aftects yer face will chase them dames?

"Not like I can help it! My opponent is Madara uchiha" hearing this both tensed, every summoning animals know who Madara uchiha and Hashirama senju was, they both have reputation as Bijju tamers and for their incredible strength "he got the Naruto! He's using some kind of space-time ninjutsu"

"ya should learn t'use senjutsu on your own, but I understan' why ya need ta summon us!"

Watching the interaction between 2 small toads and Jiraiya "so this is your trump card jiraiya! 2 toad?" sigh "just give me the key to Naruto's seal and I will consider letting yo-" before he could finish pa shot the incredibly thin water jet from his mouth only for it to pass through him.

'He's fast' Tobi thought "it's futile! You can't beat me, oh well even if you refuse to give me the key to seal, I will extract Kyuubi from Naruto by force even if it's take some time." Wrapping himself he said "it was nice chatting with you, Jiraiya of Sannin even if our opinion differ from each other" as he completely Disappear.

"Wait" he charged at mask figure only for him to realize his energy completely disappear even with his sage mode he couldn't feel him at all "dammit! He got the Naruto" Jiraiya bristled his teeth 'I always fail my student first Nagato, Yahiko, Konan, Minato and now even Naruto'

"Jiraiya chan wait a moment! I think you are forgetting something important" jiraiya tilt his head toward pa "Naruto-chan had signed a contract with us".

"You mean.." realizing the implication.

"Yeah we also have means to travel via space-time ninjutsu"

"So what are you waiting for summon him" he nearly shouted at pa.

"don't ya use tha tone with' us, boy!" ma shrinked

"it's alright ya women" pa quickly formed the required hand seal to reverse summoning "kuchiyose no Jutsu"

As the smoke erupts around them they realize something, they can't feel Naruto's energy at all.

Jiraiya eyes widen "what happened? Where's Naruto!". This time he shouted so load ma punched him in the cheek.

"Quick shoutin' at ma' ears already" ma turned around to face pa "lemme do it" going to hand seal ma use summon jutsu again there was smoke but no Naruto.

"Okay what the heck is going on?"

One moment he was just checking the seal on Naruto when suddenly he disappeared in puff of smoke altogether

[Somewhere on earth land]

"Hmm" blond ninja yawn as he sit up with his eyes closed on rigid ground while rubbing the dust in his eyes. Naruto get up from the ground and stretch his sore joints all the while without opening his eyes.

Suddenly a brust of winds hit him full force without warning as he was sent flying.

"Wha.? What happen?" his eyes widen in shock of impact only to realize he was falling off the cliff. "huh?" his reflex kick in as he quickly apply chakra to his legs as he in desperation applied more chakra to kick off the air to reduce the speed of fall and propelled towards the cliff before he grab and stick to the side of cliff by applying his chakra to hand.

"What the fuck was that? I swear if it's Ero-sennin idea of training!" he ran up to the top. "that wasn't fun.." his words died down in his throat as he was greeted with intimating site of a creature with skin as black as coal with round scales and blue marking all over it's body, he was flying some distance away with helpof his two big wing "dra..dragon". Naruto stutted. He was godsmashed by it's majestic site.

He slapped his check hard "I'm not seeing things right?" he slapped other cheek "It's hurts, so I'm not seeing things! Right?".

Looking around himself "more importantly! Where am i? And where Ero-sennin" remembering the last event " di.did I do something when I was using kyuubi's chakra? What about Ero-sennin? Did I do something to Ero-sennin?" horrifyied at the revelation thet he couldn't remember anything after ero-sennin let loose the seal of kyuubi.

Shaking his head 'no don't think about it until your sure' "but seriously where am? As far as my eyes can see it's all brazen rocky mountain with no sign of any trees at all".

where the fuck is he?
