(A/N: When I first started this story, my plan was to have Naruto be the embodiment of all four horsemen, but I changed my mind as time went by and decided to have four separate horsemen instead. Now comes the question of can anyone guess who the other three will be? I'm fairly certain that everyone can guess who Fury, the only woman, will be yet can you guess the other two? Once again I would like to thank VFSnake for allowing me to use a bit of his story for my own and I will say that the Wedding scene in this chapter is from his story 'Hollow Inari' and you should read it if you get the chance. I changed about 40% of it to fit my own story since his is a crossover with Bleach and mine is a Darksiders crossover.)
(Suna's Desert)
As a strong wind start blowing, some sand seem to concentrate, compressing and forming the figure of a young man with gray with jet black tipped hair, he couldn't help but remember the blank desert that the land of the dead had become after the War of Apocalypse. In the past there had been temples and buildings as well as arenas of various sorts, but now it had all been reduced to endless desert. Yet if his plans were to come to fruition then it wouldn't be like that for much longer. Naruto thought of it not as an endless desert, but a blank canvas that someone with his artistic skill as well as his celestial power was meant to mold into the perfect living space for him and the rest of the Horsemen that he would find in time. Naruto would have rode Despair all the way to Suna, but he was fairly certain that an undead flame engulfed horse would shock too many people, and he was trying to keep as low a profile for as long as possible.
"This strange feeling I am feeling is getting stronger the closer I get to Suna" said Naruto letting his foxy-grin showing once again. "Knowing my luck I will most likely meet at least one of the shinobi from Konoha. Need to keep a level head until everything is set in place for the grand finale."
It was easy testing his powerful seals he placed on himself to ensure that his power was greatly suppressed as he walked to his destination, even if he couldn't use chakra since the key thing about it is that it was an energy source that was only able to be used by those who were alive, and him being not only a Nephilim as well as the Horseman of Death countered that entirely. Death using the powers of the living, the thought of such a thing made him chuckle to himself. It was kind of a bummer for him to not be able to use any of the jutsu he had used while still human, yet having newfound powers such as what he had and a body incapable of being harmed by any form of weapon that wasn't forged in the bowels of Hell itself or the forges of Heaven.
"I wonder how my old friend Gaara is doing at this moment in time, it has been quite a while since I have seen him," he said opening his eyes, clenching his hands into a fist for as he stared at them. The raw feel of power gave him a feeling of euphoria; with it he would set the balance of the world straight once more.
"Better start moving, if this feeling I'm getting is right, Gaara should be in danger and I will need to hurry so that nothing bad happens to him." using his power, he called forth Dust to fly high up into the air so that he could see how much further he needed to go to reach Suna. He saw that he was within close proximity to the village, so he donned his mask to hide his face, since even with his hair changing colors, he still had his whisker marks that helped people identify him quite easily since no one else in the world had them, but now they were more feral looking since his transformation.
Once his appearance was hidden away from others, Naruto walked the short distance towards the village gates, several trails of smoke showed a recent attack had happened. Walking faster, he approached the gate, before stopping and inwardly cursing his rotten luck, for in front of him was the last group of people he wished to see at the moment...Team 7.
"Identify yourself," said a Suna Shinobi reaching for his weapon after seeing this stranger appear, and judging by his intimidating attire he wanted to be on guard in case he was hostile.
"I'm here to see Sabaku no Gaara on urgent business, but since I don't think that having smoke coming out of your houses is a normal occurrence, this must be the worst time I could have chosen to come here" said Naruto before looking behind the Suna Shinobi, and at the faces of one Hatake Kakashi, Uchiha Sasuke, Haruno Sakura and some pale skinned boy that he never meet before.
"Who are you?" asked Sakura, as she could feel the stare this strange man was giving her, and the mask he wore only freaked her out more than she already was from the attire he was wearing.
"My name is not important, but for the moment you may address me as Grim. I came to this village to speak to Sabaku no Gaara to help him avoid suffering a horrible fate, yet I may be too late. What has happened here?" said Naruto, as he was having a hard time keeping himself from killing those he once called a team and make himself a target, not yet at least.
"The Kazekage has been kidnapped by the Akatsuki and we're here to help save Gaara at the request of his siblings, it seem that they know we are far superior to their Shinobi since they can't help themselves," said Sasuke with a smirk, he will impress this man, making his name known even in foreign lands and spread the name of the Uchiha even further than it already was.
"So Gaara is the Kazekage now, huh? I'll have to congratulate him once this mess is over," Naruto said to himself, he had already sensed where the Akatsuki were taking Gaara since Dust had picked up their trail in the distance.
"Wait! You never said why came here in the first place," said Temari having walked in on the conversation.
"I came from...overseas. I am a Seer with a gift, or curse if you wish to call it that as many would say it is, that allows me to see multiple futures of anybody or anything that could greatly impact the world. In one of my visions I saw your brother in mortal danger and if he perishes, then the world will head down a dark path that my visions have shown will be the end of the world as we know it. So I have come to offer up my assistance so that this dark future can be avoided," he said walking away with his hands at his sides like his predecessor did long ago.
"Wait!" said Kakashi, fixing his eyes on the boy "Grim," a sense of dread possessing his soul as he looked at the man in the eyes, his dark blue eyes were devoid of life and only promised death to those who crossed him.
"What do you want Konoha's shinobi?" asked Naruto who just wanted to leave so that he could save his friend before it was too late to do so.
"That mask? Where did you acquire such a thing, for I can feel such a strange source of power emanating from it" he asked.
"This? This was given to me by the man who once donned it himself long ago before he passed away. There isn't another one like it anywhere in the world so if you are going to ask where you could get one yourself, there isn't another one to acquire."
"Why help Suna like this? We are from Konoha, THE strongest village of the whole elemental nation, you should use these powers of yours to help us, not this weak village," said Sasuke as he wanted this man in the village so that the Council could force him to teach him everything that he knew and gain even more power, for even though his Sharingan was complete his lust for power hadn't diminished in the slightest over the last three years.
Naruto couldn't help but snarl, unnerving the duck-ass haired boy
"Sorry, but my power doesn't work in the way that you think it does," said Naruto as he turned fully around to face Sasuke, "for it only shows me the futures of people or events that impact the world. Many times I ignored the events since tampering with the future always has consequences."
"So if that is how your power works, then why not look into Sasuke's future since he is the last Uchiha and his very existence is influential for the world?" asked the pink haired fan-girl Sakura.
"If that is true, then allow me to peer into your future then," said Naruto who was mentally laughing at the fact that they were buying this bullshit, since he didn't have the powers he said he did and yet they were so easily convinced that he did. So he held his clawed gauntlet up and poked Sasuke in the forehead while heating the tip just a bit to really sell it.
"So what did you see in his future?" asked Kakashi, who was genuinely interested in what this strange man would say about his students future.
"I see many possible futures for this boy, and yet not a single one of them ends well for him. His life goal to avenge his clan goes unfinished and he dies by the hands of someone he thought was dead. I have peered into thousands of branching paths he could take, and yet all end in utter failure and death," he said making the others flinch at how calmly he was saying that to their faces.
"How dare you say that? Your power must be defective since Sasuke will avenge his clan and become the ultimate shinobi," screamed Sakura, unable to look into his eyes in fear.
"As I have said, I peered into many paths he could take. And if you wish to be in denial then you shouldn't have demanded that I peer into his future," this made Sakura take a step back...when was the last time she saw something like that happen? Being talked back to like this.
"Is there any way that we could convince you to come with us to our village after this mission is over?" asked Kakashi, "I'm fairly certain that our kage could make some use of your power."
"I chart my own course without hindrance, and if I happen to end up in Konoha then it will be because I was meant to go there. For I answer to a higher calling and let destiny decide where I go. And not even your eye concealed by your headband can change my mind in any way, but you are welcome to try and yet you will fail and the price of failure is steep," Kakashi instinctively put a hand on his Sharingan eye as he said this...but why was he doing just that?
"And by taking up too much of my time, you may have made it too late to save Gaara in time," said Naruto as his Raven Dust landed on his shoulder and awed out directions for him.
"Is that an animal summon?" stammered Sakura in surprise to see a raven just appear out of nowhere, and in the desert no less.
"No he is not, he is nothing more than my familiar and companion," he said walking away.
"What is his name?" asked a now very pissed Sasuke, who was pissed by this man not only telling him that he would fail to avenge his clan, but also brushed him off like he was nothing.
"His name is Dust, and why you wanted to know doesn't make sense since it doesn't do you any good to know his name" answered Naruto before he began to walk away once more.
"But we should stay together since we are all going to try and save the Kazekage," said the pale boy.
"Shut up Sai," answered the last loyal Uchiha.
"You wouldn't be able to reach the destination in time so I must make haste," said Naruto as he jumped up into the air and mounted on Despair that appeared out of thin air, doing so caused those in the immediate area to stare with wide eyes as they saw this. Naruto saw this and inwardly chuckled as Despair sprinted further as fast as he could and disappeared into the distance faster than the others ever could even at their peak speed…
(Clearing – Akatsuki hideaway)
"They need some lesson in hiding, even an organization of S-class nuke-nin has to pay attention...and a BOULDER of all things with seals on it in front of a gate is not something you can find naturally around here or anywhere if you think about it long enough," said Naruto, as he stood before said boulder, now he only had to find the other seals and remove them at the same time and. Yet before he could say anything more he felt the power of a soul entering his amulet. He channeled his mind to see whose it was and to his utter rage it was Gaara's.
"AAH! Fuck this!" he then conjured up his purplish blue spirit arm to punch into the boulder, by doing so he cracked it opens large enough for his second arm to enter as well. Once inside he used his enhanced strength to rip the boulder in half.
The two members of the Akatsuki inside the cave looked up in shock; the same was done by the other shadowy figures in the room, holo projections of the other members of Akatsuki, from their position on the fingers of a huge statue. He saw Gaara's body on the ground with his demon extracted and his body lifeless. The rage built up inside him as he saw his best friend dead on the ground and the very people responsible were standing before him.
"Who the hell are you? And how did you enter?" asked the blond male, Deidara.
"A force of nature that you have unfortunately seen fit to infuriate with your recent actions, but now, just need to know me as your personal executioner. I will be merciful and give you a fast death IF you let me take Gaara's body," the hunched over one, Sasori, laughed as he heard this, since he was thinking that this strange boy was joking.
"Do you have any idea of who you are dealing with or even how strong we are? Do you seriously think you can take out BOTH of us?" asked Sasori.
"As I used to believe back in the old times, you two seem to think that I care or that I SHOULD care about you or your abilities, in reality, to me you are only human trash, trash that believe to be better than everyone else, and that is something that I still can't stand when it comes to the likes of you, arrogant fools. If I have to be honest, I still think that the only solution of this problem is to kill you pathetic pieces of trash and all with your kind of mindset, but this way is easier since I just only have to remove the problem at the source."
"What?" asked one of the projections in the room.
"Just shut up and die, for with your death I can resurrect one who's life was snuffed out too early," said Naruto, before suddenly appearing behind Sasori using his speed and beheading him with a back-handed motion of the hand, the sound of breaking wood resounding in the cave loud and clear.
Sasori had to thank his instinct if he could come out of the puppet before being hit.
"How did he move that fast?" thought Deidara while the gray haired boy positioned the dead Gaara on his shoulder, quickly moving towards the exit, but he just remembered that he need to do the hand seals to send the statue away. Yet before he could do just that, the stranger before him held out his hand and the statue split open, allowing the Biju Shikaku to fly out and be absorbed into Naruto's arm, and as it did so, a circular symbol with three smaller circles appeared. One was already filled with a crimson symbol, and another filled up with a sand brown colored one.
"Deidara! Sasori! Stop him now!" said the projection that was in the middle of the others. Nodding, Sasori revealed his puppets while Deidara started making several kinds of bombs using the mouths in his hands.
"All right! Prepare to die! Damned kid," said Deidara grinning evilly. Naruto unholstered his pistol Redemption and quickly aimed it at his target.
"Die" He said simply, firing off a shot towards both Sasori as well as Deidara. It was only thanks to a fast substitution that the duo dodged the attack in time. Naruto laughed internally since he had honestly believed that humans, even those with Jutsus like the ones in this day and age wouldn't be able to dodge bullets. Yet he was just proven wrong and he would file that bit of information to for later use.
Another burst of speed let Naruto and Gaara touch the more stable, solid ground. Putting his friend's body down, he side-stepped, so as to dodge one of the many puppets Sasori had summoned to fight him, before crushing it with his brute strength alone.
While he was facing Sasori, Deidara continued forming explosives animals, hoping to drive Naruto away from Gaara, so that their target couldn't end up harmed and finish they could bring the body back to their leader as he had commanded them to do. He was unsure as to why he wanted the dead body but who was he to question the man?
"Die you fool!" said Sasori, as an army of puppets moved as one to kill the insolent boy who dared destroy his art. For each one of his puppets was a work of genius to him and by destroying even one of them set him back nearly several weeks since he would have to find an adequate replacement in the world to capture and begin the process of turning them into a puppet.
"Sorry, but I don't take orders from the likes of you" said Naruto, as he let loose a incredibly small fraction of his spiritual pressure, rooting the two criminals in place since their powers were not enough to shrug off such raw spiritual power, while he was calmly walking towards Sasori, he start humming, playfully remembering how in the past he had always been in the position that these two were in know. On their knees with fear in their hearts as well as uncertainty that they would survive to see another day. Thinking back on those moments filled him with rage, and harnessing the power of that rage he took the boy's red haired head clean off moving his hand open palmed in a smooth cutting motion.
"So he was a living puppet, never thought I would see something like that in my lifetime," he said before stomping the cylinder with Sasori heart inside, splattering blood everywhere and collecting the soul that tried in vain to fly away from this monster of a man.
"Now it's my turn!" said Deidara now that he could move again, he flew high in the sky on his clay bird, having at the ready a storm of explosive birds, waiting to be unleashed on a target...but the boy wasn't fazed by this in the least nor did he even look the least bit worried by this.
"If you say so...then yes, it is your turn" said Naruto, shocking Deidara, as he unlatched his bladed whip and whipped it towards him. The blades on the whip dug deep into the clay bird's body and caused the thing to explode, blasting off both of Deidara's legs in the process. The fall also caused him to receive a broken arm since he landed on his side from such a great height. He tried to crawl away from Naruto while bleeding heavily on his back, yet Naruto slowly walked up to him as he once again unholstered his pistol and pointed it at Deidara's head.
"Oooh! Fuck me sideways!" said Deidara in fear since he knew that he was about to die here and now.
"Sorry, I don't swing that way, nor will I ever." said Naruto before shooting a bullet into his head at point-blank range.
After he dealt with the two enemies before him, he looked back towards the holo projections of the others. He walked up to them and they looked at him in anger since he had not only killed two members of their organization, but he had also stolen the Biju that they had spent so much time planning to acquire.
"Le what you have seen here today serve as a warning," said Naruto as he glared at each one of the projections with his eyes glowing as he hid his face behind his mask. "For if you continue going down this path that you are all walking, then you will have to deal with me personally. And if that ever happens, then you best drop to your knees and pray to whatever gods you believe in to save you from my wrath. Yet I will warn you ahead of time that your gods will not listen to your pleas." And he turned around to collect his friend's body.
"Who are you," asked one of the projections.
"I am known by many names," said Naruto as he looked back at the projections without fully turning his body. "Yet I am known to most people in the world simply as Death."
No longer sensing any of the other Akatsuki members as their projections disappeared altogether, Naruto let his spiritual power falter as he felt the Leaf Shinobi came close to him along with another presence that turned out to be an elderly woman, clearly from Suna if he was to guess about it.
"You! What the hell happened? We could feel the explosion from halfway here!" shouted Sakura pointing at Naruto, who just keep ignoring them, focusing instead on Gaara's body, checking if everything was okay and that it was still intact.
Naruto remained silent as the elderly woman came to check on Gaara with a rather guilty look in her eyes, probably from having contributed in the Kazekage's life while growing up. Turning his head, Naruto could see how Team 7 from Konoha was ready for a fight. He was amused at the looks Sasuke was giving him; he was silently ordering Naruto to answer his question about his powers. Yet there was no possible way for Sasuke to force him to teach him anything.
'He probably is still focused on getting more power...I wonder if I should kill Itachi just for the heck of it so as to steal from him his purpose,' thought Naruto, before he began walking away from them.
"I thought you came to help him," said Kakashi calmly, the young man just stopped to look at him, while the wind was blowing his black cowl in a way that gave them a clear view of his muscle tee and the abs that they clearly displayed in an intimidating fashion, he gave Kakashi a frown.
"Yes, you are right... but because of your little group here demanding that I show the Uchiha his future in a vain attempt to boost his ego I was too late to save him. Then again, I won't pretend some weaklings from the Leaf can understand the ramifications of their actions," said Naruto seeing Sasuke and Sakura draw some kunai, evidently angered by his words.
"Take that back loser!" demanded Sakura, her voice reaching a high-pitched volume.
"Why? I just said the truth. By your looks alone you don't seem physically strong and by the way you act, I don't think you will never have the finesse to be a leader in any capacity. I will be surprised if you manage to take care of yourself instead of relying on your team here to do all the work, for any group in life is only as strong as their weakest member and if what I see from you alone is anything to go on, then your team is weak," he said, smiling mischievously as Sasuke activate his Sharingan, while Kakashi scowled at him.
"Be careful when you insult someone, Grim-san. A Leaf Shinobi is not someone you want for an enemy," said Kakashi in an authoritative voice, his scowl became even deeper as Naruto let out a little, playful laugh that seemed far more sinister than it was meant to be.
"We are not in your country, my dear Leaf Shinobi. By the laws here in the elemental nation, if I insult you here you can't do anything in return since you have not a shred of authority within someone else's country. I hope you do not have a problem with what I said, even then, I suggest you to act humble and leave, remember that I am a simple Seer. Try to think what will happen to your precious village if I sent a message saying that Konoha attacks and attempts to imprison a man of religion just for speaking his mind. And even if you succeeded in doing just that, there is nothing that anyone in your village can do to make me crack in any sense of the word, nor do obedience seals work on me either. So please, stop acting superior to your betters," said Naruto seeing his ex-sensei narrow his eye at him.
"What did you say loser?" said Sasuke, moving his hands, going through the seals for a Katon Jutsu.
"Sasuke don't! This guy may be a simple Seer as he claims, but he took down two S-class Missing Nin without breaking a sweat. Grim-san, even if the things didn't start in the right way, I hope you will reconsider the possibility of visiting our village in the next few days. We have a wedding scheduled in the next few days and it would be an honor to have someone powerful like you attend it." said Kakashi, as Lady Chiyo stood protectively in front of Gaara's body with tears in her eyes since he had died and she felt such great guilt about what she had personally done to him in his youth.
"A wedding you say," said Naruto who knew who exactly was getting married since his familiar Dust had found it out for him not too long ago. "Who, may I ask, is the lucky couple that are about to tie the knot in holy matrimony?"
"That would be me," said Sasuke, unaware of the dark aura resonating from Sakura not too far behind him since she was enraged that it was someone else and not her who was getting to marry her Sasuke. "And my wife to be Hinata Hyuuga, the former clan heiress of the prestigious Hyuuga clan."
"You, Grim! You are the one responsible for avenging Gaara by killing those responsible for his death. The means of transportation that got you here, can you use it again to take the Kazekage back to Suna for a proper burial?" asked Chiyo.
"It would be my pleasure," said Naruto picking up Gaara, before giving a mock salute to the four Leaf Shinobi, and suddenly becoming mounted on his trusty steed once more before he took off at breakneck speeds.
"The Hokage will not approve of you doing this. Why would you let him, a complete stranger, take the Kazekage instead of us Lady Chiyo," asked Kakashi seeing the old woman glare at him.
"What your Hokage think is not my problem, since I serve the Kazekage of Suna. And frankly, I somehow trust that complete stranger far more than the whole leaf village put together," said Chiyo, heading back to Suna with the others trying, and failing, to keep up with her.
(Suna Hospital – 2 hours later)
Temari was saddened to see her brother dead and lifeless like he was, and yet his body was practically without a single scratch on him. The mysterious stranger placed the body on the hospital bed before moving to the window and shutting the blinds, with a grin on his face that so much made her think back at an old friend now dead for three years now.
While watching the Suna shinobi working at the reparation of the damages the village sustained during the attack earlier that day, Naruto couldn't help but thinking about many things about his old village Konoha and the Akatsuki. He walked up to her and told her to dry her tears since everything would be all right. She wasn't sure why, but she believed him entirely and watch as he channeled a strange blue transparent energy into both his hands. The energy in his left hand took form into Gaara himself yet he was transparent. The one in his right hand formed into a simple heart in a strange container. Naruto took the spiritual heart and crushed it in his hand, turning it into a sphere of pure spiritual energy. He then placed it in the soul of Gaara and saw it glow. Once it began to glow, he placed Gaara's soul back into his own body, and shortly afterwards his cold dead body filled back up with life and color and he began to breath once more. Temari broke out in tears as she saw her brother live once more. She hugged his still heling body as Naruto looked at this with a genuine smile on his face that was still hidden behind his mask and thought on other things as he did.
"How should I handle them now, I have practically made an enemy of the entire Akatsuki organization, while the Leaf thinks that I am some Seer with powers that they could use as they please. The Nara clan is right, sometimes life is just too troublesome," he thought.
"Thank you for saving Gaara, Grim-san, is there anything you need?" said Temari, bowing slightly in front of him. In that moment Gaara started to stir.
"Where am I? What happened?" said Gaara looking at his sister apparently talking to a stranger with a very intimidating appearance.
"You are safe now Gaara, we are in Suna's hospital. Grim-san saved you from the Akatsuki," said Temari smiling at Gaara, while his brother Kankuro sat down next to him with a smile on his face as well.
"Who is he?" asked Gaara, Temari's smile turn into a frown.
"You don't know? He said you used to be friends," said Temari.
All the while Naruto was smiling while looking at them.
"I do not know him Temari, actually, this is the first time I meet this man in my life," said Gaara, which made Temari's eyes widen in shock. The wind mistress then took her iron fan next to the bed positioning herself between Gaara and the stranger in a defensive stance.
"Who are you?" said Temari, glaring at Naruto with all the fury her person was able to muster.
"As I said before I went to save him, I am here to help Gaara," said Naruto, smiling like it was some kind of joke.
"Yet you don't know Gaara, so what are you doing here?" asked Temari.
"Why should I lie about wanting to help out Gaara? If I was an enemy, I could have easily killed him by not returning his soul once more to his body and just let him remain dead," said Naruto before turning his smile in a full laugh.
"Gaara has never seen you until now. So you will tell us why you are here, or you will face the consequences," said Kankuro while Temari kept looking at the Horseman carefully.
"I see that you have grown stronger than the last time I saw you. I remember you being a little gentler. I know it seems that I am a little different from the last time Gaara has seen me, then again, what I'm going to say is a secret, and I ask you to never tell anyone until the right time comes. If you remember we did meet at one point three years ago. It was during the invasion of the Leaf village, during the Chunin Exams. I was the first person to ever defeat you in combat, something that you had never thought possible. Do you remember me now?" asked Naruto, seeing Gaara's eyes go wider in shock at each and every detail he was giving in his story as did Temari's and Kankuro's too.
"It can't be. Uzumaki Naruto died at the hands of Uchiha Sasuke, I saw his body being burned into nothing! They even have the galls to let us see it before kicking us out of the village, all the while everyone was cheering as he died! You look nothing like him!" said Gaara, as he could feel all the anger he felt towards Konoha. The politics of his country may demand that the new Kazekage to keep the alliance with the Leaf valid, but that didn't mean he wouldn't use every grain of sand in Suna's desert to crush Konoha into oblivion if given the chance.
"Yes I know, I was there when I died, yet hiding one's appearance is very useful if you want to sneak around, but people tend to not recognize you when you need them to," said Naruto, as Temari was still on high guard against him.
"Prove it to me. Show me you are really my friend Uzumaki Naruto back amongst the living," said Gaara, seeing the stranger pull his mask off as well as pull off the hood of his cowl. Gaara and his siblings gasped as they saw a more powerful looking version of once knuckleheaded ninja they came to love like a brother.
"Is this enough to convince you? Before the sand body of Shikaku started collapsing in our fight, I jumped down from the Toad Boss Summon Gamabunta. You said you wanted to prove your existence and then asked me why I kept fighting, and I know the two of us were alone up there," said a smiling Naruto, amused at the surprised look of their faces of seeing someone they believe dead, walking amongst the living once again.
"Welcome back then, my friend" Gaara said, nodding slowly.
"Wow, you did really come back" said Temari, putting her fan away, as Kankuro relaxed again in his chair.
"So what will you do now?" said Temari seeing the newly revived Uzumaki Naruto head for the window before stopping.
"Whatever alliance you have with the Leaf, I think it would be better to cut it off, I know few things that will help all of you to survive on your own, without relying on outer sources. I don't think you can trust a place that kills someone that had completed a mission or that can make a public spectacle of an execution such as mine, or are you really my enemy as well? An enemy ready to betray me and support the littlest desires of the same pampered betrayer I was sent to bring back?" said Naruto.
"I hope you are joking, because it's not funny and I assure you that if it all up to me, by now there would not be a Konoha on the face of this planet," said Gaara narrowing his eyes, that moment three years ago was still a burning wound on his very soul.
"Good, even if I don't think that the Wind Daimyo will be happy if you do cut your alliance," said Naruto
"If he asks, I will simply tell him what really happened after the retrieval of the Uchiha. You may not know it, but Konoha pretty much threatened us if we were to ever tell the truth about your death they would move towards war. But I'm sure the Daimyo will totally change his point of view towards my choice once I talk," said Gaara, showing his version of Naruto's foxy-grin.
"It seems like Gaara is showing his mettle. I'm happy to be back, even only to see you guys again, I have to go, and those bastards from Konoha will be here any minutes. But before I go I have this to leave you," said Naruto as he handed Gaara a large scroll.
"What is this that you are handing me," asked Gaara in wonderment to the scroll that was given to him.
"Inside of the scroll is the deed to the entirety of Whirlpool Country. I leave it to you my friend since your country could use the resources more than I or any other village could."
"You are just handing over your entire clan's home and fortune?," asked Temari in utter shock since the riches as well as the resources from that country far exceeded any other countries as well. "
"I have no need for such things," said Naruto as he quickly explained in about five minutes what he was and why such land was useless to him since his new home was within the former land of the dead. And when he was able to revive his clan in the future, they would come to call it their home as well once their transformation into Nephilim was completed. Once the explanation was done, Naruto shook Gaara's hand and told him that in the future he would come and personally collect his soul to guide to the afterlife and to continue down the path he was going so that he would be able to ascend to heaven since he didn't want to drag him to hell. He then used his power to open portals so as to get ready for an event he had to get ready for in the near future.
A half hour later, team 7 had finally returned to see if Gaara was really in the hospital's morgue, yet the leaf group found him deep in thought about something, alive and well to their shock. But when Kakashi greeted the young Kazekage, the red haired man glared at them so intensely that the stares he used to give three years back seemed like nothing in comparison to the ones he was giving now, what was more frightening was that the whole room was covered in sand, ready to crush anyone who dared challenge him in any way.
"Something happened here Kazekage-sama?" said Kakashi seeing the intense look from Gaara. "And also how are you alive? We saw your body as Grim delivered it back to this village."
"Yes, after a long talk with Grim-san I came to a very important conclusion. Tell your Hokage that the alliance between our villages is now null and void. I found something more interesting and no longer fear retribution from your village," said Gaara, smirking at their shocked faces. "And how I am still alive, well that is for me, my siblings, and Grim to know and you as well as the rest of your village to never find out."
"What? Why would you do this?" asked Sakura, Temari simply walked in front of her, putting her fan on her shoulder.
"You don't need to know the full detailed story kid. But now you have to get out of Suna, or your whole Team will be declared hostile, attacked on our command and thrown in prison where you will be subjected to tortures that will haunt your dreams for years to come." said Temari, spitting the words out as if they were venomous.
"Do you realize the consequences of your actions? What do you think will happen to your pathetic village? You can't touch me, I am an Uchiha elite! I demand you tell us the secret on how you were revived or else I will speak to the councils once I return home and we will wage war with your village and force you to tell us in the end," said Sasuke as Temari smirked at him.
"Just try it, come on! You move for war and we may let our tongues slip while talking to the Wind Daimyo, or do you seriously think that he will still support your village if we tell him our little secret? I don't think he will like what we know, don't you think?" said Temari teasingly.
The Suna siblings couldn't help but smile as the team from Konoha went paler and paler while considering all the painful implications should a particular secret regarding a blond boy be exposed.
"Can I ask what Grim-san offered you to make you change your mind?" asked Kakashi, before Gaara's killer intent fill the room.
"What he offered? Way more than you will ever give us! But the main reason for this decision is that I finally have a reason to cut any and all ties with a place that kept dishonoring my friend Uzumaki Naruto's memory," said Gaara in an tone so devoid of humanity that it made Kakashi take a step back.
"What? He was a loser! Why should anyone keep weeping over him? A no one?" said Sasuke, making the killer intent in the room became so oppressive that the sand started forming a miniaturized version of Shikaku roaring at the group, Gaara was only letting them live so as to give his message to the Hokage, but he was rapidly having a change of heart.
"Get out of here NOW! Get out or I will kill you! STARTING FROM NOW EVERY NINJA FROM KONOHA ENTERING HERE WITHOUT MY DIRECT PERMISSION WILL BE KILLED ON SIGHT!" yelled Gaara, his voice and killer intent showing he was a step from actually killing them, as a veritable sand-storm filled the room.
"This is not the end of this," said Sakura before they left.
"I think it is. Now go, my brother needs his rest," said Kankuro, laughing as the leaf shinobi were literally blown out of the hospital room.
(Suna – outside the gate)
"What now, Kakashi-sensei?" asked Sakura, totally covered in sand as they were basically blown out of the hospital with such.
"If they don't want us it's their problem, right now, I think we should focus on this Grim. If he can offer so much to make Suna cut his alliance, then we should show him that we are a much better choice, and bring that much in our hands" said the Jounin, trying to imagine how rich or powerful the man must be.
"If a mere Seer can take out two S-class missing Nin, then they must train me! With power like that I will finally kill my brother and avenge my clan!" said Sasuke.
"That's right Sasuke-kun, I'm sure he would be honored to train you!" said Sakura, hopping behind the avenger.
"Let's report to Hokage-sama, and then start making plans for looking for Grim-san after Sasuke's wedding," declared Kakashi.
From the sky, a lone raven was seeing all this unfold, hearing their plans for the future. The fools had just given him a way to enter the village with very little resistance since such a grand event would call for nearly the entire population to attend the event. So it would be easy to take away what belonged to his family and more importantly save the only woman that ever loved him from this marriage forced upon her by evil greedy people.
"Perfect. Just wait for me Hinata, I'm coming for you" Naruto said, smiling as he saw through the eyes of his familiar as he was galloping towards Konoha to stop this event from happening.
(Konoha Chapel-Day of the Wedding)
Sasuke was standing at the alter smirking his ever confident "I'm better then you" smirk while waiting for his bride to come down the aisle, to say her vows, and be his wife until death do they part. While he was still pissed that he had met a man with such great power refuse to teach him as well as show him up by completing the mission he had been sent to complete. Once the team had come back and reported what had happened with their alliance with Suna being cancelled as well as a man by the name of Grim somehow bringing back a confirmed dead Gaara, this news alone getting the attention of all in attendance since it was apparent that this stranger had a power unlike anything that they had ever seen and was capable of resurrecting the dead. They wanted this power for themselves since it would help them resurrect those who fall in battle and could become some of the most powerful medics that there ever were to exist. Danzo himself wanted it so that his dreams of global domination could become a reality with power such as Grim's at his disposal. So the council made the unanimous decision to find this man once the wedding was over and convince him to join their village either through negotiation or by force if needed. Once a part of the village they would sign off on making him the head of a new clan and enact the Clan Restoration Act and breed more future shinobi with his powers to use in the future.
The Uchiha smirked at the thought of claiming the former Hyuuga clan heiress as his wife knowing she loved his nemesis Naruto and was going to enjoying sticking it to the loser while sticking his dick into the Hyuuga bitch. She would know her place in his house, by force if she resisted. He was going to see to it she was pregnant within a Month into the marriage. No rest in that, as he would take her morning, noon, and night until the Hyuuga took a paternity test with the results being positive. He'd even have her at night when she slept. Her pleasure was never an issue in his mind because he didn't care about it in the slightest. She was going to be his wife. Meaning the Hyuuga was going to please him, give him pleasure, and be lucky to feel any from him in return.
When she wasn't pregnant or on her back being taken until she was pregnant, Sasuke had every intention of working that woman to the bone in doing everything around the house, and understand her place in the world was serving him. He would make sure that woman did the cooking, the cleaning, and being pregnant with his children until her very presence was sickening to the point where Sasuke would just kick her abused body out onto the street with nothing but the clothing on her back.
Even that last part was him being generous. And if in time she pissed him off enough, she wouldn't even be allowed to keep those…
'Are you watching from Hell loser? Are you watching me claim this woman as my own? She loves you even now three years after your death, but make no mistake I will have her screaming my name, and make her suffer for loving you,' thought Sasuke while everyone took their seats and saw his two most rabid fan girls from the Academy sitting there wishing this wedding was for them and not the Hyuuga whore.
In time he might take one or even both of them as his future wives, maybe when he was starting to get bored with the Hyuuga woman. But not right now. Hurting Naruto and those that care about him was his main objective in his life right now.
"All set Sasuke?" asked Kiba, who Sasuke had requested be the best man for this since the Uchiha knew of his growing dislike for Naruto over the years since Hinata the girl he wished to claim as a mate for himself was in love with Naruto over him, and his hatred for Naruto grew even more when Tsunade let the village know of the Kyuubi sealed within him and told the village that Naruto was the Kyuubi reincarnated.
"Yes. Just waiting for my future wife," answered Sasuke with his grin never leaving his face. The list of chores his new sla… he meant wife would be forced to do once this was all over. By the time she was done, the entire Uchiha district would be sparkling like the fucking sun down to the ground itself from all the cleaning she would be doing.
Sure enough, his grin increased when he saw Hinata coming walking down the aisle with her Father walking down it with his arm around her own. A sense of pride on his face at sending his eldest to be married to the Uchiha, though in truth, Hiashi was happy that his youngest was going to lead the Hyuuga Clan and a true Heir would succeed him. Hinata was getting too strong over the years for his liking and the fact her way of thinking went against the clan's made things worse for him overall so measures had to be taken to stamp this little speck of resistance from the clan. He had told the Hokage about his situation and how putting Hinata with Sasuke would be the best way to bring her underfoot. Tsunade agreed with him and after talking things over with Sasuke the arrangement was made behind Hinata's back. Not that Hiashi even cared, as his daughter was finally going to be useful in his eyes by securing an alliance with the Uchiha Clan through this marriage, boosting the Hyuuga even higher in the political realm, and maybe even have one of her children become Hokage with the right amount of training.
Tsunade stood behind Sasuke in her Hokage robes, ready to make these two married, and Jiraiya stood off to the side to be crowd control, even though there wasn't anyone who would try an oppose this wedding. After these two were married, Tsunade had given him orders to put a Cage Bird Seal on Hinata's head, which was just like the original one used on the Branch members of the clan except this one would ensure she obeyed her husband by using a blood seal attached to it, and make Hinata obey through a form of powerful hypnosis every command Sasuke gave her through a seal he formed with the help of the Yamanaka clan. The Rookies, their senseis, and just about everyone capable of fitting into the chapel much less get a seat was there to witness this marriage.
"Dearly beloved, we are here gathered today under Kami's blessed eyes to bind Hyuuga Hinata and Uchiha Sasuke together in holy matrimony to strengthen the ties between their clans of Konoha. If there is anyone here, who knows why these two should not be wed, please speak up now, or forever hold your peace," said Tsunade with some people letting out a chuckle, herself included at the thought that someone would be so stupid to say anything, and stop this wedding from happening.
Only one person would be that stupid and he was long since dead.
'Naruto-kun,' thought Hinata, as she had to hold back the tears, and wish-no praying this was just a horrible nightmare just waiting to end.
And just as if Kami himself had heard Hinata's prayers, an incredible power unlike anything that they have ever felt swept through the chapel, and all through Konoha itself. It was unlike anything they had ever felt before and wondered what could possibly be causing it? A Jutsu from a sudden enemy attack? A Biju? One or both Jinchuriki from Kumo trying to stop this wedding? What was this power emanating from?
(Konoha- 5 minutes earlier)
A lone hooded figure walked down the road to the gates of Konoha. Footfalls made little to no sounds as he walked. As to why this figure was heading to Konoha, he had a wedding to crash.
"Halt! State your business!" commanded an ANBU standing guard at the gate.
"Is today the day of the wedding between Uchiha Sasuke and Hyuuga Hinata?" asked the figure in a calm yet unreadable tone. He kept his head down so that the enemy couldn't see his mask.
"It is. Why?" questioned the second ANBU on guard duty while his hand flexed slightly to get it ready to reach for his sword.
"Oh good, I almost feared I was too late to attend. I take it everyone is there right now. Hence why I see no one walking the streets behind you," replied the figure with a hint of joy in his voice though for what purpose was unknown.
"This wedding is by invitation only. Only the Hokage can give out such things to the most important of people. Present your invitation to us and you may proceed to the event," commanded the first ANBU.
"Ah yes, my invitation. Of course. Silly me. Here is my invitation right here," replied the figure darkly while reaching into his shirt pocket for his invitation. And before either of them could react, the figure unsheathe his hidden scythe and decapitated the two guards while channeling fire through the blade so that the Hellfire burned away the corpses so there wasn't any proof of what had just transpired. The souls of the newly departed flew into the amulet worn by the figure, and seeing that there wasn't anyone else in the area, he continued onwards. He made his way to a dark alley and used his powers (Soul Splitter power, but the copies are not glowing different colors in this story like in the game) to turn into a statue, leaving two copies of himself to do as they needed to do. One of them took the Soul Amulet and headed to their destination while the other went to the chapel to wait for the right moment to crash the wedding being held within it.
"Everyone in this village deserves to be wiped out. Why you saved that ungrateful liar for a Sandaime Hokage from a more horrible fate then the one assigned to him by you is nothing short of a mystery to me," said a voice only the figure could hear within his head.
'You know the reason Kurama. That man hated paperwork above all else and we needed someone to process the damned souls. So I killed two birds with one stone.' thought the figure to the demon in his head known as Kurama while smirking at the memory. The figure was able to converse with the demons sealed within another realm with the power of Interdiction. This copy was nearing the chapel where he was met with more guards.
"Halt! This place is forbidden to outsiders unless you have an invitation," stated a Konoha Nin in an emotionless tone.
"I am well aware of the wedding happening inside. That's why I am here," replied the figure with the pair of Konoha Nin glancing at his intimidating figure.
"Then you won't mind surrendering any weapons on your person and providing us with your invitation as proof of being invited," said the second Nin, who was clearly an Aburame judging by the way he was covered up, and wearing shades to hide his eyes.
"Of course. Let me see here. Invitation. Invitation. Ah! Here is my...invitation!" replied the figured before using his Death Grip to grab the Nin's head. His headless body slumped down dead on the ground.
"What th-ACK!" exclaimed the second Nin before feeling a fist go right through his chest where the heart was located.
"It is well that you and your comrade are nothing more than arrogant drones in the service of a crazed hag of a leader. The guilt of killing you and your leader will weigh less heavily on my soul," remarked the figure before pulling his hand out and watching the body fall while flicking the blood off his now clawed hands. He summoned more Hellfire to be rid of the bodies like the ones at the front gate. Once that was done, a small portal appeared in front of him and out of it fell his Soul Amulet that he caught and once again wore around his neck, feeling the newly acquired souls within it. He felt the copy of himself remerge with himself making him whole once more. He sent his familiar up to spy the wedding through a high up window and tells him when to go in on the phrase 'If there is anyone here, who knows why these two should not be wed, please speak up now, or forever hold your peace.'
Once the line was spoken, Dust cawed to him and he let his spiritual power surge forth and used his spiritual arms to blast the doors to the chapel open…
(Konoha Chapel – present time)
"I object to this wedding!" the figure at the door called out with his body being covered in shadow while blocking the light outside just before the pressure let up and people were able to move once again.
"Who the Hell are you? Furthermore how dare you interrupt this wedding. Who do you think you are to protest this sacred moment?" Tsunade called out while feeling a chill run up her spine at hearing the figure's voice.
There was something about it and the connection to the past.
"What's wrong Granny? I'm hurt you don't recognize me. Granted it has been a few years since my execution, but even your brain, as damaged by drinking sake as it is, should be able to remember what I told you in my cell? And how you should pray to the gods to keep my soul locked up so that I couldn't return? Well obviously neither you nor the village prayed hard or long enough since death only held onto me for less than a day before I was back and far more powerful than ever before. Is my identity starting to become clearer in your mind or are the long years of drinking heavily affecting your already troubled mind," asked the figure shadowed in sunlight with his blue eyes shining so they were seen by all who looked at him.
"No. No! It can't be you. You're dead!" exclaimed Tsunade, as she now recalled that little conversation, and yet the woman wanted to deny it.
"And yet here I am Granny! Namikaze Uzumaki Naruto IS BACK!" called out Naruto before stepping further into the room where the lighting washed away the shadow on his body, and any doubts they may have after he pulled off his mask and pulled down the hood of his cowl to show his face.
"Naruto-kun!" Hinata exclaimed happily at seeing the man she loved standing there in the flesh.
"It's impossible! It's a trick! Kakashi himself burned the body after Tsunade confirmed his death with a Chidori to the heart," spoke Jiraiya while Naruto just smirked at them.
"A trick? You don't believe I'm Naruto standing before you. That I'm not your former student. The failed weapon you killed out of some misguided need for revenge. Revenge for hurting Konoha's oh so precious Uchiha, who willingly fled to join Orochimaru for power, and couldn't care less if you all died the next day. Then there was your need to avenge the Yondaime and his wife after the Kyuubi attacked and was then sealed inside my body. You all cursed me to hell for something that was never my fault, and the humor in this whole situation is that I will never go there no matter how much you wish it since I have become something far more than any of your feeble minds could comprehend," said Naruto while ignoring the glares and shouts of hatred aimed at him for ruining this holy union.
"What are you getting at brat?" called out Jiraiya while Shinobi now moved to surround Naruto on all sides.
"What I'm getting at you old perverted fool, is that in your quest to control and kill me when I wouldn't be controlled, you set in motion event that made me the closest thing to a god that there is in the universe."
"How dare you disgrace the almighty Kami," shouted a random Nin, "you will burn in hell for all eternity for that and Kami will make it a reality." And as that as said, Naruto couldn't help but laugh at their utter stupidity.
"You truly believe that your so called 'Kami' will smite me as you so desperately wish. Yet not a single one of you fully understand or fully grasp what the Soul Plains was like when I died and entered it myself. There was no entrance into hell since there wasn't anyone to process the souls to enter it, and Kami isn't a god like you think. He is only a truly pure spirit that acts like a beacon to those who are worthy of entering Heaven and helps lead the way. But don't just take my word for it, since I will jut show you what I mean." Naruto then summoned up the soul of Deidara himself, his arm still broken and his legs still missing for souls were stuck in the form of how they died. With his soul in hand, Naruto crushed it to gather the energy held within and used it to summon up a large portal visible to all in the chapel. It showed them what both Heaven and Hell were like before and after he showed up to rearrange them into their current state.
"So what if all that is true? It means nothing!" said Kakashi while having his Sharingan exposed.
"It means everything! If you are just too arrogant to see the truth right before your very eyes, then I am not going to waste any more of my time trying to convince you," explained Naruto with Tsunade looking furiously at him.
"You lie!" called out a Shinobi to Naruto right.
"Stay in denial, for I no longer care to explain myself, I am here for one thing and one thing only, a simple trade," stated Naruto with Tsunade growling at him.
"And why do you think that we would trade anything with you," growled out Tsunade as she prepared to order her shinobi to capture him so that they could dissect him and see if his powers could be replicated.
"Because it would actually benefit you in a way," said Naruto, "and my deal is as such, you hand over Hinata to me and in return I will leave your village to destroy itself for the next ten years."
"You will not take from me what is rightfully mine," shouted Sasuke as he prepared to attack Naruto, to prove once and for all that he was finally able to surpass him and set the record straight.
"Well I disagree with that since the alternative to this deal is that I will unleash a destructive force capable of destroying everything in sight and use said power to destroy one third of the village."
Before anything else could be said or even done by any of the others in the Chapel, Sasuke used the power of his Sharingan to summon forth an enormous purple energy hand wielding a blade and used it to attempt to strike Naruto down. Yet the blade was stopped short from hitting its intended target by one of Naruto's spiritual arms, which even though was far smaller in size when compared to the size of Sasuke's Susanoo, yet it was far more powerful than the larger hand.
"Even after all this time Sasuke," chuckled Naruto as he saw Sasuke strain to try and break free of his arms grip yet it wouldn't budge. "You still have yet to learn when you are outclassed."
"I am an Elite," shouted Sasuke through gritted teeth, "and I am far superior to a nobody like you!"
"And I will repeat the last thing I said to you three years ago," said Naruto as his spiritual hand began to crush Sasuke's Susanoo arm and cracks appeared on it as the grip tightened. "Even in death, I am stronger than you." And with that, he crushed the arm in a way that it shattered. The backlash at having his Susanoo destroyed caused one of Sasuke's eyes to explode out of his head, and he fell to the ground and held his hand up to try and stem the bleeding. Medic Nin immediately appeared to assist in healing him.
"Arrest him now!" called out Tsunade with many Shinobi in the room moving in from all directions while Naruto simply looked bored at her.
"Dust," spoke Naruto with the command hidden within the name spoken.
In an instant, multiple dark blurs went through the entire army of Shinobi, and they all fell down on the ground brutally injured. Arms and legs were broken if not ripped out of their sockets. Some bodies were bent at odd angles with their backs broken or with internal bleeding from the hits to the torso. What had caused it was a massive flock of ravens that were magically enhanced with far greater strength and sharper beaks tore into his enemies.
"Those who are foolish enough to challenge Death itself only hasten their own demise."
"What are you," cried out one of the many injured Nin on the ground as he held his arm that had been literally torn off at the elbow by the massive flock of ravens.
"I go by many names now that I have been reborn into my new body. I am known as the Rider of the Pale Horse, the Rider of Death, Kinslayer, Executioner, The Reaper, The Shinigami, or my official title, Death."
"You will pay for this brat!" called Tsunade while Naruto looked from her to Hinata.
"Not today," Naruto stated simply, "now I will give you one more chance to take the deal I offered you before I was interrupted by Sasuke. So will you use your head for the first time in years or will you let your hatred consume your ability to think about the big picture."
"And why would you even offer us this choice in the first place," growled out Tsunade.
"Because unlike you, I can see into the hearts of men and see into your very souls themselves. While most of those who reside in this village are destined to suffer for all eternity in the very same hell you tried to damn me to, yet many of them have a shred of light still in their souls and have a chance to find redemption before their time is up. As the new Shinigami of the world I only kill those whose souls are purely darkened as well as those who challenge me. For to challenge death is foolish in itself. So what is your decision, will you forgo your misplaced hatred for me and allow those still capable of redemption the chance to find it, or will the rage fully consume you and damn all those in this village for your decision."
Yet before she could say anything in response, Sasuke, whose eye socked was healed to the point that blood was no longer flowing out of it, charged forward and struck Hinata through the heart from behind, killing her.
"You will never have what is rightfully mine," said Sasuke in pure rage as he threw her body to the side like it was nothing. Naruto used his Death Grip to grab ahold of her body with one hand while the other one grabbed ahold of her soul.
"You get your filthy hand off my mate demon," shouted Kiba as he rushed forward to tear out his throat with the claws in his hand. Naruto didn't flinch, he simply laid Hinata's body gently to the ground and then made a fist with his left hand. Once formed, he pointed his index finger as well as hi middle outwards and pointed them outwards. Underneath Kiba a spike made out of the earth itself pierced through his body at an angle that pierced through multiple vital organs, so there was no way in hell that he could be saved. He quickly died afterwards from blood loss and Naruto caught his soul with his left hand which then formed his dead body which just had a large hole in his neck.
"You claim Hinata to be your mate Kiba which is your clan's form of saying you are in love with someone," growled Naruto in fury since he had seen the way Kiba had been hitting on Hinata during school. Even though at the time he wasn't aware of the love she had for him, he still noticed his lustful advances towards her which she rejected every time and yet it never deterred him in any way. "Yet you didn't care for her as a person. You only cared for her body and wanted her for nothing more than to use as a form of sexual release. That isn't love you mutt that is lust. Yet since you claim to love her so much, find solace in the throes of non-existence that your death was useful in the way that she will survive while you don't." He then crushed Kiba's spirit and used the energy from it to restart hers. Once it was glowing, he channeled some of his Nephilim energy into it to start the process of transformation.
"You will live once more my love," whispered Naruto as he kissed her on the forehead before he used his clawed gauntlet to tear open a portal to the newly named Realm of the Nephilim so that her body wouldn't be disturbed during the process. "Be reborn as the horseman of Fury..." he then placed her gently through the portal and closed it up again. He looked at Tsunade and Sasuke who were still at the alter this whole time with a look of utter fury on his face worthy of the former Horseman of Fury herself.
"If only I had gotten here sooner I could have saved her from suffering the pain of death like I once suffered, I need the items that I collected."
"What items are you talking about," asked Tsunade as Naruto easily dodged a Rasengan thrown by Jiraiya and grabbed ahold of his arm. With a quick twist, his arm was broken in three sections and then threw him at Tsunade. She caught him and put him down as to help heal him with the aid of the other medic Nin still nearby.
"I collect the souls of the deceased and there was quite a few still within this village, tethered in place since they demanded that their clan be avenged before they could move on. Yet their only chance at being avenged was in the hands of quite literally the weakest of their clan. I collected the souls of the Uchiha to use in plans for the future."
"You dare desecrate the Uchiha like this," shouted Sasuke, "Release them at once!"
"I dare because I can, and yet out of all the souls of your clan tainted by the darkness in their lives, only your mother was capable of ascending into the heavens since her soul was full of light. She helped patch up some of my greatest wounds and I owed her my very life the one time she found me with my legs cut off and bleeding out. She sowed them back on and let the Kyuubi within me heal my legs back onto my body. The rest deserve what is coming to them for they are nothing more than a clan of traitors. And if you make any more demands of me I will end you quite easily and your so called ultimate power will not save you."
"Let my cla… AHH!" said Sasuke as Naruto didn't give him the chance to finish his sentence and simply shot him between the eyes, or eye and eyehole, with his pistol. Tsunade flinched in shock from seeing a strong shinobi like Sasuke get taken down so easily and by the dead last no less. Naruto repeated the process he had done for Hinata by taking the soul of one of the Uchiha clan and used its energy to restart Sasuke's soul. His body healed after Naruto threw his soul into his body, his destroyed eye heling up as well.
"I hope you are happy," said Naruto as he noticed that all the other Nin in the chapel had left to take those who were injured in his attacks to the hospital. So there was only the four of them. "Since for the second time in the history of this village, Sasuke Uchiha has doomed your village." And with that being said, Naruto used his power to summon forth the Kyuubi itself in all its demonic glory. It howled out in rage as it grew to its full size, breaking the chapel itself apart as he grew up. And as he reached his full size, he let out an earth shattering roar that caused fear to seep into all who heard it.
"Kyuubi," shouted Naruto, "destroy one third of the village…"
(A/N: Well there we go, one more Horseman is reborn, but can anyone else guess who they are going to be? Here is a quick hint, they will not be any of the other Jinchuriki.
Strife - angry or bitter disagreement over fundamental issues; conflict.
So who do you think could fit the bill of becoming Strife? And War, who do we know that has been affected the most from War in the universe of Naruto)
