Orochimaru walked into the room with a smile on his face and removed Menma's respirator.
"Today is finally the day I take your eyes Menma. Then you'll finally die, so you don't mind if I make it slow do you?"-Orochimaru spoke proudly with a laugh. Menma laughed right back at him, "You truly quite the shining example of an inconsequential man aren't you?"-Menma responded looking up at him with an equally as sadistic smile.
Orochimaru backed up some from surprise, but started walking towards him, "Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha, it seems you've truly gone crazy now, Now Menmaaaaaa. GIVE ME YOUR EYES!!!"-Orochimaru yelled and got within breathing distance of Menma. Menma took advantage of the close quarters and broke right through the titanium and grabbed Orochimaru by the throat and slammed him into the ground, causing the ground to crumble.
Menma started punching into him relentlessly, each hit on his body broke one of his bones, "HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA, COME ON COME ON COME ON COME ON!!!! WHAT HAPPENED TO YOU A MINUTE AGO? YOU WERE GONNA KILL ME WEREN'T YOU?!?"-Menma. Menma took the obsidian knife from Orochimaru's pocket and stabbed himself in the stomach and pulled out the leech that Orochimaru put in him. "Here Orochimaru, you can have this back."-Menma.
Menma forced open Orochimaru's mouth and shoved the dead leech down his throat. Orochimaru regurgitated and vomited. But Menma didn't let him recover and placed the blade over Orochimaru's arms.
"How about I hear you scream a little?"-Menma. Menma slowly stabbed the blade into his wrist and started drawing up Orochimaru's arms. "AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!"-Orochimaru. Menma took out the blade and mocked him, "Awwww, what's wrong Orochimaru? You can make people deal with all that pain but you can't even handle a percentage of it?"-Menma.
Menma put the blade over Orochimaru's stomach, "How about I take a few organs first, then we'll move on to something a little more fun!-Menma. Orochimaru had some fear in his eyes, he thought he mentally and physically destroyed him, but here he was overpowering him, and he planned to give him the same pain.
Before Menma could do anything though he was interrupted by a chakra enhanced drop kick by Kabuto. Menma flew through a wall and Orochimaru ran out of the room.
"So it seems you aren't depressed anymore, it seems your trying to get your revenge. but yo"- Kabuto was interrupted by Menma climbing through the wall, and his eyes flashing and he was laughing endlessly.
Menma looked him straight in the eyes and he had the widest grin he's ever seen, his killer intent made the walls around him vaporize, "Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha, HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! YOU THINK I CARE ABOUT SUCH A TRIVIAL THING LIKE REVENGE?!? NONE OF THOSE PEOPLE MATTER TO ME!!!! THEY COULD BE KILLED OR RAPED A HUNDRED TIMES AND I WOULDN'T BE CONCERNED!!!!! I'M NOT EFFECTED BY SUCH A STUPID THING LIKE LOSS, THE REASON I WAS GOING TO TORTURE AND KILL OROCHIMARU IS BECAUSE IT IS THE ONLY THING THAT PUTS A SMILE ON MY FACE!!!!"-Menma. Kabuto's glasses shattered and some of his clothes shredded. "YOUR MERE EXISTENCE IS THE REASON I LIVE!!! I LIVE TO MAKE PEOPLE SUFFER, YOU THINK I'LL STOP WITH YOU??? NO!!! ONCE I'M DONE HERE I'M GONNA GO TO THE LEAF VILLAGE! I'LL KILL ALL THEIR LEADERS AND PUT THEIR HEADS ON PIKES!! I'LL PARADE THEM THROUGH THE STREETS AS PEOPLE LOOK ON!! THEN TAKE EVERY CHILD AND EXECUTE THEM IN FRONT OF THEIR PARENTS! I'LL HAVE EVERY WIFE RAPED AND EVERY PREGNANT WOMAN DECAPITATED!! THE MEN WILL BE GUTTED OF ALL THEIR INTESTINES AND I'LL HANG THE ELDERLY FROM BUILDINGS WITH THEM!!!! THEN AFTER THAT I'LL GO TO EVERY VILLAGE AND DO THE SAME THING!!! ONLY THEN WILL I BE SATISFIED!!!!!"-Menma.
The sheer pressure of Menma's chakra caused Kabuto to have a heart attack and just sat there in pain. Menma let his killer intent subside and he slightly frowned at Kabuto before walking past him and picking up some of the jars with leeches in them and put them in a bag before running for the exit of the hideout
The real Menma had just become somewhat conscious and could see everything going on although he wasn't in control of his body, "Is it safe to leave Kabuto alive?"-Menma. "The heart attack will kill him."-Menma.
Menma kept on running until he entered a big room that was lined with prisoners, all the prisoners saw him. "Orochimaru said we would be set free if we killed you, so nothing personal."-???.
Everyone in the room started to approach him, it was at least a hundred prisoners. Menma simply laughed hysterically. "Bring it!"-Menma.
They all charged him and Menma let then come at him with open arms. They tackled him and they all started beating on him brutally.
Menma laid there in the middle with a disappointed look and yawned, "Your all to weak."-Menma. Menma ignored there attempts to attack and used wood style to make wooden spikes appear out of the ground and impaled 70 of them.
The other 30 ran at him though and Menma grabbed a punch from one and crushed his hand, and used his body as a shield to block a drop kick from one and made a spear come out of his hand and shot it through his body shield and 5 other prisoners. Menma dropped his body looked over at the remaining 24 and saw them trying to run away. Menma smiled at the sign of fear and blocked the exit with wood and started molding chakra into his left arm. The remaining prisoners turned around with fear as Menma formed a chidori out of black and white lightning. The prisoners got on their knees and started begging for their lives, Menma would of liked to have fun with them but he had no time for this so he blitzed all of them with the Chidori.
Menma was about to leave the room but heard something behind him. It was the man from before who raped Temari. "That's him! He has to pay for what he did."-Menma.
Menma didn't care about revenge but Menma was his other personality so he thought he would please him this once. At least that's what he thought, but the truth was that Menma's personality was influencing his actions.
The man was slowly walking away holding the spot where his right arm used to be. Menma rose some roots up from the ground and tripped him.
The man turned around and simply said "Come on man... it's not like I had a choice, I didn't want to do it but he would kill me if I didn't!"-???.
Menma simply looked at the man and said, "Don't feed me that bullshit, you probably volunteered to do it. So, I'm gonna show you the same mercy you showed sweet Temari."-Menma.
Menma reached in the bag he held and pulled out a needle. "This is the needle Orochimaru used on me to make me more sensitive to everything, especially pain. If you're so good at hurting people then I guess you won't mind being hurt."-Menma.
The man begged for mercy as Menma reached into his bag and pulled out 4 jars with leeches in them. "Wha-wha-what are you doing?!?"-???. Menma didn't acknowledge any of his words and pulled out all of the leeches and tossed them at him.
Warning, The Next Scene Will Be Nasty
The man tried to shake them off but they were glued to him. "GE-GET THEM OFF!!!"-???. Menma's grin grew from ear to ear as he saw the leeches enter his body all at different holes. One crawled into his rectum, another slid into his throat, another slithered into his ear. And the last one stretched out his penis and crawled inside of him. "GWA-ACK-AAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH"-???.
Menma started feeling horny at the site and he yelled, "SUCH A BEAUTIFUL SIGHT!!!! OOOOOH THE MISERY AND DISGUST IS ELEGANT!!"-Menma. Menma continued to look on as the man started to have a seizure as the leeches crawled under his skin. Menma took the jars and poured the liquids in them onto the man's stomach. Menma unzipped his pants at the sight of the man's torture and started masturbating. All of the leeches started crawling into the center of his intestines and started eating out of his stomach. The man's stomach exploded as the leeches crawled out of him and the man died the most painful death imaginable.
Menma looked down and saw a pair of keys on his pants. Menma grabbed them and zipped back up his pants and started leaving.
Menma started walking down some more corridors and was starting to breathe the first puff of fresh air in a week. Menma stood in front of the door where the key was suppose to go and unlocked the door. He opened the door and his Menma side shined as his eyes widened in disgust and horror.
There in the room was Temari's headless body, naked, chained up into a lewd position.
Menma quickly slammed the door shut and vomited. "I didn't do enough to that motherfucker."-Menma.
The Menma side of him subsided and he returned back into his Menma side. Menma was gonna start running but was interrupted when he saw a raven haired kid leave their room. Menma grinned when he saw him.
"That's Sasuke! Wait a minute... Sasuke. Sasuke... Sasuke. He's the main reason this all happened in the first place."-Menma. 'Yeah, that's right, if he wasn't so selfish Naruto would've never been sent on that mission. So what do you want to do to him?"-Menma. Menma lost his resolve and some of his reason for a minute and said, "Kill him."-Menma.
That was all Menma had to hear. Menma blitzed Sasuke and slammed his head into a wall. Menma released his head and looked at him, "You use to be a friend of mine... so I won't make this hurt too much."-Menma. Sasuke was gonna try to say something but Menma turned him around and started slamming his head into the wall, over, and over, and over, and over again. Sasuke's blood was slowly painting the wall and his grunts eventually stopped. Menma restrained some laughs as he dropped Sasuke's body back into the room it was in and closed the door.
Menma started walking up the steps but fell, "No! Damn it. My time is done already?"-Menma. Menma quickly calmed down though, "No matter, there will be other times, like once we go back to the village."-Menma.
Menma's eyes returned to normal and he stood up but tripped again. 'I feel like my bones will shatter at any moment!'-Menma. But Menma forced himself up the stairs, and rested onto the grass.
Menma laid there, he finally had a chance to relax. But then everything that just happened seeped into his mind. He just killed Sasuke. Menma started to feel like he betrayed himself, "No, NNNNNOOOOO!!!"-Menma.
'What would Kakashi think of me? This is exactly what Menma was talking about, Kakashi once said those who fail the mission are scum, but those who let their friends die are worse than scum. Well I just did both of those things. I can't let Kakashi find out.'-Menma.
Menma started hearing footsteps approaching. He was greeted by the face of a white haired man with a mask, and 12 other people.
Menma felt he'd lose consciousness any second. Kakashi smiled down at him, "Menma, we finally found you!"-Kakashi.
Gaara got a little closer, "Where is Temari? She was supposed to be with you."-Gaara.
Menma hesitated for a second, but pointed down the stairs at the room to the right. Gaara ran down and opened the door to the room.
"NOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!"-Gaara. That's what Menma heard last before losing consciousness.
Leaf Village Hospital
Menma seemed to be showing symptoms similar to a coma, and he wasn't expected to wake up for a week. Not much changed in the Leaf while he was gone. The only thing that happened was people heard that Sasuke Hinata and Sakura were killed while Menma was away. Something that happened after that was people were making up gossip about it, but Teuchi overheard and got a whole street to listen to him as he told them about all of their crazy nonsense, and told them what really happened. After that a percentage of the village stopped hating Menma, but unfortunately it wasn't part of the village he lived in. The part of the village he lived in just grew a stronger hate towards him. And outside of the village Gaara was finally called Kazekage and he established a friendship with the Leaf, but Gaara was feeling depressed sense his sister died, the only reason he agreed to still become Kazekage was because he knew he still had Menma. But he had a female advisor named Matsuri who stuck around and comforted him, so he was was still depressed, but managing.
Menma woke up in the hospital and realized he wasn't strapped down to the chair. He snapped his fingers just to make sure that he wasn't restrained by something about and stood out of bed. Menma had a flashback to a week earlier when he did that and thought he was gonna collapse on the ground so he braced himself. Except nothing happened.
Menma then remembered that Kurama told him that he gave him a gift. "Hey Kurama, thanks for the quick healing gi"- Menma cut himself off because he just remembered, 'Oh... right.'-Menma.
Menma walked into the bathroom and looked at himself to see if he looked good enough to walk in public. He noticed he didn't have whiskers anymore, and his hair was entirely white now. And he looked like he lost a lot of build.
Menma decided he needed some fresh air and something to eat, so he made a wood clone in his place and left the hospital.
While he was walking down the road he saw Neji, he was gonna wave but he saw Neji crying with Hiashi and a few other family members. More memories came back to Menma and he remembered how he let both Hinata and Sakura die.
Menma dropped his hand and continued walking. He came across Ichiraku Ramen and entered the place.
Menma had his head down so Ayame didn't recognize him. He ordered 5 bowls of Ramen and started eating for the first time in a week. "You know you have quite the appetite. You remind me of these 2 kids who used to come here and eat all the time, you know we have 2 dishes named after them!"-Ayame.
Menma looked to his left and visualized his brother sitting there, he thought it was him for a second so he reached out to him but his hand passed right through him. Menma lost his appetite and payed before leaving.
He continued down the street knowing that nothing would ever be the same again. While was walking he fell because something hit him in the head. He looked up and saw an alcoholic with a broken bottle in his hand, "What do you think you're doing back here after what you did?!?-Man.
The man brought attention to himself and other people began to recognize who it was and they walked over too. "Come on Menma, this is what we talked about! Kill them!"-Menma.
Menma felt one of his eyes begin to transform but he stopped it, 'NO! I can't... I just can't.'-Menma. Menma tried to force out the transformation though and he felt one of his hands start producing wood, Menma grabbed his hand to stop it, but the hand shot the wood into the ground and stabbed the body of one of the villagers. "NOOO!"-Menma. "YES!"-Menma. Menma was only in control of half of his body and was starting to lose control of the other half, "NO! I heard what you said about killing everyone, I went let you!!"-Menma. Menma grabbed the obsidian knife he remembered was in his pocket and stabbed himself in the leg. Menma's hold over his body released and Menma ran away to go back home.
The villagers he left behind just stood there in shock at what had just happened. And one of them thought of something, "Did anyone else notice that it looked like he was fighting someone off in his mind?"-Lady. Then another came to an educated conclusion, "Yeah, it looked like something was possessing him... do you think that it was the fox spirit?"-Lady 2. The crowd dispersed and everyone was left to their thoughts of if Menma was the actual demon or if something inside of him was.
Menma made it back home and started thinking maybe he should of stayed in the hospital, anywhere he goes he just comes across a problem.
"Kakashi! I'm home."-Menma. No response. Menma walked further into the house and saw a note on the table. He picked it up and read...
Dear Menma,
If you're reading this then you should know that I found Sasuke's body. I don't know what's wrong with you, but you've betrayed me and everything that I taught you. And also I saw Kabuto, he was still alive and he told me everything that you did. About how you let Naruto die then when Orochimaru captured my student and Hinata you let him kill both of them even though you had a choice. And then worst of all you brutally killed your own teammate Sasuke. You have brought shame to the name of a Leaf, the Uzumakis, and your a disgrace of a friend. I'm giving you this one chance to leave the village, or else ninja will be sent to kill you and I'll be one of those ninjas.
Sincerely, Kakashi
Menma dropped the letter onto the ground and collapsed onto the ground. The very first human that truly accepted him just told him to leave the village and called him a disgrace. Menma felt like he was suffocating so he ripped off his shirt.
1 Hour Later
Menma sat in his bed rocking back and forth with tears in his eyes, 'I can't just leave the village, I can't survive on my own... I can't even go anywhere because I have no one left now...'-Menma.
Menma lost his will to do anything again, Menma looked at himself in the mirror and noticed that his eyes were slowly turning again. 'And I can't stay... or else I will be killed. And I don't think I'll be able to do anything soon... Menma's gonna take over my body and kill everyone... I've lost the will to fight back. This isn't worth living for anymore.'-Menma. Menma then remembered the blade that was in his pocket, he took it out and looked at it.
Menma took a deep breath and held the blade up to his heart, and stabbed himself. The blade swiftly passed through his heart and he felt a quick jolt of pain. But the pain wasn't comparable to everything else he's experienced.
Menma lost his strength and his grip on the blade loosened. And after a few more seconds, he was dead.
Konoha Hospital
Kakashi stood over Menma's unconscious body, "When are you gonna wake up?"-Kakashi. Kakashi looked down but he looked up when he noticed Menma's body started to erode like wood. "What the hell?"-Kakashi.
Menma's body lost it's color and transformed into wood. "A wood clone?"-Kakashi.
Kakashi felt happy for a minute but then was a little upset, "Why would he leave without telling anyone?"-Kakashi.
Kakashi stood up and jumped out the window to search for Menma, his first stop was to check the 4ths head then he would check back home.
30 Minutes Later
Kakashi got home and brought Iruka with him to find Menma. Kakashi opened the door and walked in, "Wait here, MENMA!"-Kakashi. Kakashi walked further into the house and saw a note on the ground and picked it up and read it.
Kakashi's eyes widened some, 'Who the Hell wrote this?!?! With the current state Menma's mind is in this could make something bad happen.'-Kakashi. Kakashi picked up the pace and walked over to Menma's room, "MENMA, ARE YOU IN THERE?!"-Kakashi.
Kakashi opened the door and was solid as a statue when he looked at Menma. He slowly walked over to him and held him in his arms, "Menma, Menma Menma. You're alright, you're alright."-Kakashi. Iruka peeked in the door and his eyes widened, "Oh my God..."-Iruka. "Get Tsunade... GET TSUNADE!!!"-Kakashi. Iruka ran out of the house as fast as he could and ran towards the Hokage tower.
With Tsunade
"Where's Kakashi? He was supposed to come here half an hour ago."-Tsunade. "It seems like he got distracted by something that happened, also apparently Menma's out of the hospital!"-Shizune.
Tsunade's face glowed up some, "Really now? Maybe that's why Kakashi's gone. Have Menma come here in the morning, I haven't talked to him in so long!"-Tsunade.
Tsunade was interrupted when Iruka ran threw the door, "Lady Tsunade! You need to come with me now!"-Iruka. Tsunade stood up from her desk, "Come with you where?"-Tsunade. "ITS MENMA! HE MIGHT DIE IF YOU DON'T COME IN TIME!"-Iruka. That was all Tsunade needed to hear and she responded by saying, "Lead the way!
Kakashi's House
Tsunade arrived and it was now noon. Tsunade rushed into the house and into Menma's room where Kakashi was with Menma's body.
Kakashi looked over at her with desperate eyes, "Is there anything you can do?"-Kakashi. Tsunade jogged over to him and told Kakashi, "When I take out the blade compress the wound so more blood doesn't come out!"-Tsunade. Kakashi nodded and pulled out the blade and threw it behind him. Tsunade molded some chakra into her hand and placed it over Menma's heart while Kakashi compressed the wound. Tsunade was trying to generate a pulse out of him.
But nothing happened. Tsunade put more chakra into her hands but still nothing happened. She looked at Menma's colorless eyes, even in death his eyes showed sadness. 'What the hell did Orochimaru do to you?'-Tsunade.
Tsunade couldn't begin to comprehend what happened to him but she heard about certain people who were kidnapped. The 3 of them were all close to Menma in some way. Tsunade raised her hand off of Menma's heart and stopped channeling chakra.
Kakashi looked at her with anticipation, "So will he live?"-Kakashi. Kakashi's voice didn't hold back any sadness, he has had a life full of loss himself. But losing both of his children, one to murder, and the other to suicide really made him feel like a failure. Tsunade looked at him with a sadness of her own in her eyes, "No, he was already dead before I got here."-Tsunade. Tsunade also felt destroyed by his death, next to Naruto he seemed like the most kind hearted child she's ever met. Menma always put other people in front of himself, but he did it so much that he started thinking that his own life wasn't as valuable as others.
Kakashi rested Menma's body on the bed and collapsed onto his knees and ripped off his mask cause he felt like he would suffocate. He started punching the floor. "Damn it... Damn it... DAMN IT DAMN IT DAMN IT DAMN IT!!!!"-Kakashi. Tsunade sat down cause she felt like she would fall and put her face in her hands crying.
After about 10 minutes of crying they both calmed down and Tsunade asked, "What do you think made him lose the last of his hope?"-Tsunade. Kakashi looked up at her with his mask off and said, "Someone came into my house and put a note on the table with my handwriting, it told him to leave the village or else he would be hunted down, and it also said about how I was disgusted by him letting those girls and Sasuke die and how he brought shame to me."-Kakashi.
Tsunade looked at him wide eyed, "But you would never even think of saying something like that! Why would he believe that?"-Tsunade asked with curiosity in her voice. "I guess since he was already in a weak mental state after everything that happened and he blamed himself for everything."-Kakashi.
They sat there a bit longer before Kakashi spoke again, "Orochimaru was right about what he said to me during the chunin exams, I am a horrible father."-Kakashi.
Tsunade walked over to him and comforted him, "Don't listen to anything Orochimaru says, I've known him all my life and all he does is hurt and manipulate people! You're a great father, you were the first person in the world to accept them as who they really were and saved them! You risked your rights as a ninja and even killed a villager to save them! So don't you DARE say your a bad father! You're one of the greatest dads I know!"-Tsunade.
Kakashi lost his frown and smiled up at her. Tsunade almost kissed him but he was a couple decades younger than her so she just hugged him. He hugged back as well as he could considering Tsunade's breast size.
The Next Day
Tsunade sat in her office with a bottle of Sake in her hand when all of a sudden a couple of the council members walked in the room.
"Tsunade, since Menma died recently we have decided to announce the truth about him since we won't have to worry about the threat of Minato's enemies anymore."-Elder lady.
Tsunade looked at them with disdain and asked, "You're telling me you didn't already do that?!?"-Tsunade.
The man answered, "Well Minato had many powerful enemies like the cloud village, we can't just"- they were cut off by Tsunade punching through her desk and yelling, "DON'T FEED ME THAT BULLSHIT!!! YOU WANTED THIS POOR KID TO SUFFER DIDN'T YOU?!? WE'RE THE MOST POWERFUL VILLAGE OF 5 GREAT NATIONS!!! THE ONLY PERSON WHO WAS CONSIDERED CAPABLE OF FIGHTING ONE OF THE HOKAGE WAS THE 3RD RAIKAGE AND HE'S DEAD!!!"-Tsunade. The elders stood back for a second, "Lady Tsunade, you must understand"-"Understand what?!?! There's nothing to understand! We still have MANY powerful ninja in the village! Like Kakashi, Jiraiya, and more!"-Tsunade.
The elders were silenced, they realized that she was right. They simply gave her a paper with a script on it. "We understand, you're right about us being the strongest village, but please just announce this on top of the tower at noon today."-Elder Male.
Tsunade took the paper and simply grunted. She saw a pigeon fly into the window and saw it was from Gaara's advisor Matsuri.
Dear Lady Hokage,
I'm contacting you to warn you that we won't be able to assist you anytime soon. Due to you giving us the news of Menma's death Lord Gaara has hidden away in the desert, he told me that he was afraid he would go crazy again since he's lost his last friend. Tension is rising in the village and we would love to have some help with all of this.
Sincerely Kazekage's Advisor Matsuri
Tsunade was shocked at the news, "Menma... why did you have to do it? What made you think everyone hates you and blames you for their loved ones deaths? You're life had a lot more value than you think it did."-Tsunade.
Noon
Tsunade stood on top of the tower and a crowd of villagers waited at the bottom to receive the news.
Tsunade didn't know but news spread fast of that incident of him being attacked before he committed suicide. The vast majority of the villagers were currently feeling conflicted about the true nature of Menma. And after he killed himself the villagers had started thinking that they might have been wrong. They originally thought he was a demon who was gonna kill them all, but it doesn't make sense for a demon to kill themselves. Some of the villagers even started thinking that Menma killed himself to protect them from the demon. It wasn't the entire truth but it was much better than what they use to think.
Tsunade cleared her throat and started the speech, "After the recent death of Menma and Naruto Uzumaki the council has decided to reveal what transpired during the night of the Kyuubi attack, and their heritage. First of all during that night the 4th Hokage had his 3 year old son with him while his wife Kushina Uzumaki was in labor, the 3 year old child was Menma, and the child being born was Naruto."-Tsunade.
There were a lot of gasped in the crowd and people started whispering in the crowd but Tsunade continued, "But something went wrong that night, we don't know for sure but we think the village was attacked during Naruto's birth and the 9 tails was released. At the end of that night before Minato died, he didn't die for nothing. The Kyuubi didn't transform into 2 demon children, but in fact Minato cut the 9 tails in half and sealed them inside of the 2 children!"-Tsunade. This caused some people to despair because they realized something, "So think about that, these "demon brothers" as you called them were actually the children of the 4th Hokage."-Tsunade.
Tsunade didn't wait for a reaction and left the mansion, she had to meet with Kakashi for the planned funeral tomorrow.
There was yelling in the crowd and after awhile the crowd dispersed. The village was silent that night as everyone was left to think.
The elders also told them that they were invited to come to Menma's funeral tomorrow, but one thought that every villager held in their head was that they didn't deserve to be in the presence of Menma's body after everything they did.
I guess it's kinda funny how easily a person's mind can be changed by a single sentence.
During that night Kakashi decided he'd retire as a ninja for now at least. He needed time to recover from those deaths.
Menma's Funeral
That night Menma's funeral had more people at his funeral.
Everyone that went to Naruto's funeral came to his, minus Gaara and Temari. But more people that did arrive were a lot of people from the clans of the rookies.
Once everyone was there the funeral began.
Outside The Village
A man with an orange mask stood on top of a tree and watched below as mist ninja were running towards the village. "I'm surprised Yagura is still able to seem like a powerful leader after certain things I made him do. But no matter, since the 3rd Hokage and the 9 tails Jinchuriki are dead I'll finish what I started more than a decade ago and destroy this pitiful village."-???.
"Most of the villages most powerful ninja are gathered at the graveyard, so they'll strike their first. It's midnight so a simple sound nullification genjutsu is all it will take to prevent reinforcements."-???.
The man turned around and left after seeing Yagura himself run behind all of the ninja towards the Leaf village.
Menma's Funeral
There were more tears at this funeral than Naruto's. There was something truly depressing about gaining back a friend and then having them taken from you again. Even the sky was crying.
The casket was lowered all the way into the grave and they finished burying him.
Kakashi lifted his head and sniffed the air before he realized he smelled burning. Kakashi's eyes widened as he realized what it was and warned everybody, "EVERYONE JUMP!"-Kakashi.
Kakashi said it in a battle kind of tone so everyone knew what he was saying and they all jumped into the air as a lot of the ground beneath them blew up.
Everyone landed and the graveyard became surrounded by Mist ninja. "Your gonna attack us during a funeral? This is low, even for the blood mist."-Hiashi.
The leaf heard a giggling sound and looked in the direction of the source and saw Yagura. "That's cute Hyuga, it's pretty low to enslave half of your family too isn't it?"-Yagura replied with a passive aggressive smirk. Neji responded this time by saying, "We don't do that anymore!"-Neji.
Everyone was stopped though by the dark chakra emitting from Kakashi as he revealed his sharingan, his chakra was making the ground beneath him crumble, "Enough talking, you've really decided to pick me off at the wrong time. My son just died and you decide to attack my home? That mistake is gonna cost you your life."-Kakashi.
All of the rookies smirked at Kakashi in agreement and everyone got into a fighting position. The odds didn't look good for the Leaf, it was 50 vs at least 1000. But the leaf believed in their will of fire and started the battle.
10 Minutes Later
The Leaf was standing strong as they knocked out 300 mist ninja and only some of the rookies became too tired to fight well offensively.
Hiashi and Neji stood back to back against 30 ninja and smiled at each other and they both lowered into a position and said, "8 Trigrams: 128 palms!"
The ninja charged at them but were unprepared for the speed of their attacks. Blow after blow slowly immobilized all of the ninja.
They both stood their victorious and continued fighting more ninja.
Over with Kakashi he was fighting off 60 ninja by himself. He was having small levels of difficulty with them and created a shadow clone. He created a chidori cable and ran past 20 of the ninjas instantly neutralizing them. 5 of them threw kunai at him and Kakashi caught them all with his fingers, he spun around and placed paper bombs on all of them before throwing the kunai back at them. Some hit ninja and others hit the ground in front of ninja. They all blew up causing 10 of the mist ninjas to die. One swung a sword a Kakashi but Kakashi split it in half with a chop and stabbed his assaulter with it before throwing the body at another group. While they were blinded Kakashi disappeared into the ground and jumped out above all of them before creating 4 mud walls around them and using a fireball jutsu to burn them all.
There were now 20 ninja left that were fighting Kakashi and they started running, Kakashi smirked at this and thought, 'I love it when they run.'-Kakashi. Kakashi created 2 Chidoris In his hands and blitzed all of them before jumping towards another crowd of mist ninja.
Tsunade was currently fighting the Mizukage and was gaining the upper hand. Yagura summoned 2 more Water Dragon Jutsus and shot them at Tsunade but she just punched right through them and got a direct hit on Yagura's face, sending him flying into the ground. Yagura coughed up some blood, "Call off your ninja and return home unless you want me to finish you."-Tsunade.
Yagura laughed at her offer and his chakra started becoming more intense. "Give UP?!? BUT THE FUNS JUST BEGINNING!!!"-Yagura.
Yagura transformed into the 3 tails and Tsunade looked up in surprise.
After that the tide of battle turned and the 500 Mist Ninja started winning.
Elsewhere
Menma's soul was drifting around in nothingness, until his body started falling into a light. Menma regained consciousness and fell into sewer water. He looked around in confusion and heard a man laughing behind him.
Ok everyone, I'm sure all that happened in this chapter is really surprising you, but bear with me. After this chapter important people aren't really gonna die much anymore.
