When I had everything ready for the war and had everyone genin rank or above from my village suited up in the new armor I had made with Lo I set out with the troops to the battlefront. I had also outfitted Orochimaru and his people since there weren't very many.
Once I reached the battlefield command center I handed over control of the troops to Kakashi. He was very serious about this and was prepared for the position in a way that was surprising for not only me, but everyone else as well. That of course just showed how serious this situation was and made everyone else get serious as well.
I had Jiraya take command of the logistics troops along with the Akamichi clan and those who were strong in transport skills. Tsunade was in charge of our Medical troops and had Sakura and Shizune with her to assist.
The Inuzuka, Abarame and Yamanaka clans were all together in the information gathering and assassination troops. Ino wasn't very happy about being so far away from me, but when she saw how serious the situation was she put her selfish thoughts to the back of her head.
I put Orochimaru with the strategy troops so that he could hear about anything on any of the battlefields and come up with any countermeasures at a moments notice. The Nara clan was with him to help. The information relay troops and the command center troops were all together and would be so for the duration of the war since the three troops would command and strategize the entire war.
The kages weren't very happy to see Orochimaru, but they accepted his apology grudgingly and they all agreed that he was the perfect person for such a position.
A listened to my proposals and agreed that the sanin were all the best to act as leaders for their respective positions. He also agreed that the kages would make up a team to act together in the case of any unexpected situations such as a group of ninja getting trapped behind enemy lines or if a powerful enemy appeared.
The war preparations were now all complete. A created the original battle setup and I was left to sit there and wait. I was being treated as more of an advisor then an actual combatant at the moment. It was fine with me since I had snuck in a number of Shadow clones I had been cultivating into the troops.
I had found out that while shadow clones would return their remaining energy to the user when they died it was also possible to have a shadow clone remain active so long as it wasn't killed. The shadow clone would use up chakra at a very small pace when existing until it ran out and dissipated naturally and would run out even faster if it used up chakra for jutsus. To counter this I had been spending time using seals and shoving chakra into the clones so that they would have the same amount of chakra I did when at full power. I also left a surprise for any enemy who managed to kill a clone, I didn't need the chakra back and felt it could be used in a better way.
The battle began the same ways as before with the different battlefronts starting at nearly the same time.
The first place that I received information from was from the surprise attack division. I had sent two clones to each place so that one of them could be used to send me the information.
The fight started while everyone was beginning to set up a forward base for the surprise attack division to work from. Muta Aburame came out of the woods and looked to be extremely wounded and in need of help.
I of course knew it was a trap and kicked Zaji away from him while kicking Muta's gourd off where he came from. The gourd just bounced a few times before being broken open and showing a ton of clay that spilled everywhere. I had already sensed the chakra from the clay before when I had last fought Deidara.
"Deidara your art is still crap." I yelled out causing a bush to move as a number of small clay animals leapt towards me.
"You damned critic." Deidara screamed at me. "Why is it that every single time we meet you have to go running your mouth about my art. Just die already."
I of course dodged his clay animals while the others went and started their fights. My other clone went and started fighting with Tokuma Hyuga since he was a much more serious threat than Ranka with his byakugan.
My clone that was fighting Deidara ended up nearly being defeated when Deidara trapped him between the clay from the gourd which he had turned into clay animals to attack from behind and his own attacks from in front.
I had to use a water wall to mitigate the damage from all of the explosions. I ran forward at Deidara who tried to keep his distance and ended up skewered on a root I had placed upwards behind him so that when he was trying to escape while being distracted by me he would run backwards into it.
I had the root quickly curl around him repeatedly while using a lightning chakra to stab Deidara in the chest and fry him and his clay into nothingness. He turned into ashes and started to reform himself, but I used a metal canister to absorb all of the ashes and then put it in my backpack. That was it for the fight for my first clone.
The second clone had a fun time fighting the Hyuga and eventually got a good understanding of all of his moves. I then went and bit into the chakra strings attached to him while sucking out the chakra. Tokuma instantly collapsed onto the ground and I kept biting the strings and eating the users chakra until Sasori cut the strings himself.
Kankuro used the distraction I gave to take Ranka's strings over and pulled Sasori down into the field. I quickly took Ranka, Tokuma, and Muta over to a shady spot before sitting down to watch the rest of the fights.
The fights were all intense. Kankuro and Sai did amazingly well and even left me impressed by their abilities .
It would seem that their fights were also seen as being a great way to pass on since for the puppeteer he was faced with another puppeteer who even had a puppet of Sasori.
The other fight was Sai vs Shin and was also intense since they were adoptive brothers and were very close. Sai finished both fights by summoning his two benevolent kings after Sasori used the clay inside shin to act like a suicide bomber.
Sai was very upset over the fact that his brother was not only not allowed to rest in peace, but also turned into a living bomb without a care for his own feelings.
Kankuro and Sai talked to the two afterwards and both Shin and Sasori managed to move on to the afterlife once again. I of course had the can with Deidara inside of it so that nobody would be freeing the idiot.
I then felt the presence of new people approaching and warned the others to take the unconscious ninja and retreat while I blocked them for a bit. Kurano was against my plan until I showed him that under the masks of my two clones was my face and I told him these were shadow clones and even if they did somehow die it would be fine.
Kurano and the rest were surprised to say the least and agreed to my order to take the three unconscious ninja to find medical support for them. I had my two clones stay and caused the incoming enemy reinforcements to stop in front of me.
"It is good to meet you again Granny Chiyo." I told the old lady with a smile after removing my mask from one of my clones. "Too bad it is under these conditions."
"Indeed hokage Alex. However it would be fine to die once again, this time by your hand so that my poisons will not be used to harm those of my village or those who fight against this wretched Akatsuki organization."
"Do not worry, I will make sure to defeat you and let you return to rest." I told her with a nod.
"What, with only yourself?" Hanzo asked in mock surprise. "You are nothing more than a child and you believe that only you and one other individual can defeat all four of us? You might be able to defeat this old hag, but I was the strongest ninja of my time and I have once more been brought back with infinite stamina and near infinite chakra. If you think you can defeat me then you are a foolish child beyond reasoning."
"I remember hearing of you." Kimimaro said with a look of thought as if trying to remember something very vague. "Oh yes, you are the hokage who came after Hiruzen Sarutobi. I remember that master Orochimaru was very upset with you about you putting a bounty on him and telling others of his arms not working. It caused a lot of problems. I even died fighting a number of bounty hunters who had come for your bounty. Is master Orochimaru doing well?"
"He is alive and his arms are back in working order. He and I came to an agreement and I healed his arms and removed the bounty on him. He has also come to this battlefield as one of my allies." I told Kimimaro with a nod. "I am also sorry that an innocent person like yourself died."
"Thank you for telling me this as well as for helping my master." Kimimaro bowed to me.
"There is no such thing as an innocent ninja. Stop spouting nonsense and just die." Hanzo yelled before summoning Ibuse who released a poison mist. I released a spore cloud which absorbed the poison mist and caused Hanzo to be shocked.
"Didn't your parents ever tell you it is rude to interrupt a person mid conversation. I scolded him.
"I guess it is indeed time for me to fight, make sure none of you hold back." My other clone removed his mask as well and then said. "These are both clones so don't worry about whether you will kill me and let out everything you have, leave no regrets and lets fight to see who is truly the greatest."
"As for you Hanzo, there is someone who will be here shortly who will fight you since they have a personal past with you." I told him before spreading my clones to the sides and drawing Kimimaro and Granny Chiyo off to fight. I must have made Hanzo curious since he sat down and waited for whoever was coming to fight him.
The clone facing Granny Chiyo said with a smile. "I took my own research on poisons as well as your own and even the research of numerous others and created a new poison I call cellular poison. It goes into the cells and destroys them by absorbing the nutrients in the cells to increase itself and spread. I'll use this to defeat you since I believe you would be happy to see the new heights of the poisons you have spent your life researching have reached."
"You are right." Granny Chiyo said with a smile. "Unfortunately you will have to put in some effort to defeat me since I have no control over my actions once the fight starts and can't allow you to just end this terrible situation."
I nodded before rushing at Granny Chiyo. She dodged to the side and threw senbon needles coated in poison at me causing me to have to deflect them while throwing my own back at her only to see her knock them down herself.
Granny Chiyo then took in a big breath of air causing her chest to swell before blowing out a purple and green poison fog and disappearing inside it. She then began throwing needles, kunai, and other throwing weapons at me from multiple angles.
I spent some time dodging before releasing another spore cloud to absorb her fog. She was quickly revealed before causing me to dodge as she threw more ranged weapons at me and used the strings coated in poison and connected to the already thrown weapons to cause them to fly back towards me.
I noticed the weapons all around me and decided to go to the only place that would not be expected. I laid down on the ground and rolled sideways out from under the weapons flying in the air. Granny Chiyo let out a laugh since I looked ridiculous until I appeared next to her and stabbed downwards at her.
She blocked with a Kunai and was confused when I just let the kunai go and jumped backwards instead of pressing the attack.
"Why are you not continuing to attack Alex?" She asked me in confusion. "In that situation you had the upper hand since I am not very good at fighting in close quarters."
"Look at your hand." I told her with a sad smile.
On her hand was a small scrape from the kunai I had dropped when she had blocked it.
"I see." Granny Chiyo said with a smile. "When two poison masters fight it doesn't matter if the other side gets in a proper hit, even a scrape like this is enough to end the fight." She then had her arms drop down and dropped her weapons to the ground.
"It would seem your poison is highly efficient." She complimented me as she dropped to her butt from her legs giving out on her. "Can you tell me the effects of your poison?" She asked me with a smile.
"Sure." I said with false cheer. "When it enters the system it feeds on the blood cells and spreads throughout the system at a rapid pace only increasing the more it multiplies. It releases a numbing agent so that the body doesn't feel any pain until finally the body starts to malfunction. The first is loss of use in the outer limbs such as arms and legs. Next is the loss of function of most organs and the poison will absorb what the outer extremities are made of until nothing remains of them and builds up inside the main body while blocking off anything from leaving towards where the holes are. It will then absorb all of a persons insides and will absorb everything while leaving the head for last while keeping it functioning." I looked at Granny Chiyo who was already just a head. "It will then seep into every last cell before devouring them all and forming an egg that will later hatch a poison bug that contains all of the poisons originally found in the body of the victim it was made from. It will only listen to me and will die if I die. This poison will cease to exist in this world when I too cease to exist."
"That is an amazing poison, to think you would manage to create life from poison. It is truly an honor to be able to experience such an amazing thing as a poison master." Granny Chiyo then closed her eyes with a smile and let herself be absorbed by the poison. The only proof she was ever there was the ball of poison lying where she had just been.
"Rest in peace Granny Chiyo." I said while letting out a sigh with a sad smile on my face.
My second clone had an even easier time than my first clone. Kimimaro for all of his many bone skills was still rather simple when it came to his fighting style. He mostly fought using physical moves combined with his sharpened bones as weapons that could appear at random.
I used my sword that I had gotten from Hashirama and was easily able to cut through his bones. With my speed and the wood style jutsu I quickly blocked all of his paths of escape and managed to trap him inside of the wood. I then used a fire jutsu to cremate him from the inside out.
Kimimaro thanked me for stopping him before he met with Orochimaru since he would never be able to forgive himself if he ever tried to attack his master. The guy was as innocent as they come and beyond loyal. If he wasn't already dead I would try to heal him of his sickness and let him go back to Orochimaru.
Once Kimimaro had completely burned I collected his ashes in another can like I had done with Deidara.
These cans were special since they could not only absorb what you wanted them to on command while leaving everything else, but they also could hold souls. So even if Kabuto managed to make another Kimimaro it would be pointless since the soul would still be trapped by me.
The fight between Hanzo and Mifune happened in the same way as it did in the series, only this time without the dramatic entrance and the saving people.
Once that was done both my clones put on their masks and went back with Mifune. One of my clones then released itself so as to let me know what had happened and the remaining one ran for the command center since it had the poison insect egg as well as the two cans containing Deidara and Kimimaro.
Chukichi fled during the middle of the fight once he saw how badly he was outmatched by me and Mifune. I didn't really care since he would either return to Kabuto or just keep running until the jutsu was released like he did in the series. Whatever.
I got a short memory from another one of my clones with the second division and all I could do was try not to laugh out loud. Those poor Zetsu.
When the second division sensed the massive number of white Zetsu moving underground they used their earth release jutsus to force them upwards. This of course caused the white Zetsus to explode out of the ground and go flying everywhere. The second division started killing every last one of them they could, but there was at least 20,000 of the guys and it would take forever to kill them. Not to mention that the Zetsus weren't just doing nothing, they were also killing ninjas as well.
So of course my clones decide to have fun and summon all of the wolf guardians and demon wolves from the mountain by using almost all of the chakra in one of the clones and having to release the seal to replenish the chakra they had spent.
I then explained what was going on to all of them and told them how the white Zetsus were basically corpses with large amounts of chakra being used to keep them functioning. I swear that after that description all of them were drooling. Even Vala seemed ready to start drooling. I also noticed a couple of smaller wolves who I guessed were probably mine. Felt a little weird to see little wolves and think of them as my kids. But hey, sometimes things happen between a sexily dressed shapeshifting werewolf woman and a man with needs.
I told them that they could eat all of the Zetsus they wanted for as long as they wanted and they didn't even listen to the rest before they were off.
I heard some screams before cheers and then I saw a bunch of white Zetsu literally flying everywhere as if they had just been thrown back into the air by a giant hand. They never even had the chance to hit the ground before getting ripped to pieces by the wolves. Even the little wolves were ripping out their throats or dragging them to the ground by grabbing their ankles. Teamwork is definitely a strong trait for wolves and I felt oddly proud of them. My beautiful little balls of bloody death and destruction.
After most of an hour it was just clean up and that was getting left to the wolves who were still hungry. I swear those guys have bottomless stomachs. The female guardians all came over to my clones after cleaning up and dragged them into some woods for sex since they were apparently super aroused and full of energy from the massacre/feast they had just had. They were so rough that they caused one of my clones to release which is how I had gotten the memories. I also got an awkward erection while sitting at the command table. Of course Mei noticed since she was sitting on my lap and she got a smirk that promised trouble for me later. Why is all of my women so dang insatiable?
