Tailed Beast Thinking: "Woah he's stronger than I thought"
A/N:
Alright! In celebration of today being Naruto's birthday (at least from where I'm posting it) I decided to publish my first try at a non-crossover fic! Admittedly this was supposed be my attempt at an Edgruto type fic where he hates Konoha and all that but I ended up scrapping that and making this instead. I hope you enjoy!
Warning: Like all my other fics this will be a harem and lemons will come with it. There will also be some AU elements.
"Naruto Uzumaki, for the attempted assassination of the Raikage, you are hereby stripped of your ninja rank and will be sent to Hozoki Castle for life."
"That's bullshit granny and you know it! I've been on Mt. Myouboku this entire time there's no way I-OOF!"
"Shut it brat! I know you tried to kill me in my sleep! You're lucky the Hokage vouched for you or I'd have your head myself!"
"Raikage, that's enough! Yamato, take him away."
"NO! This is bullshit! You guys gotta believe me ,right?"
Looking to those he called his comrades, friends even, only to see them all look away, refusing to meet his eyes, except for one. As Yamato incases him in wood, he stares into featureless lavender eyes, filled with sorrow, but an underlying rage at the situation.
He could only think one thing as he begins to black out from the wood prison draining him of chakra.
"Hinata…"
-Several Months Later-
"Get back in your cell Uzumaki!"
A blonde-haired man only wearing a pair of black shinobi pants grunts as he is shoved onto the hard ground, before looking at the guard with a hard glare, "you don't have to be so damn rough, ya know."
"Heh, try to escape again shithead?"
"Fuck off Tayuya." Naruto replies as he sits up and tussles his shoulder-length hair that now has two chin length bangs before looking to the cell across from his that has a snickering woman with dark pink, almost red hair wearing a black tank top and shorts.
Tayuya, the only survivor of the sound five, an elite team under Orochimaru. She was captured after being beaten by both Shikamaru and Temari and swiftly sent to Hozoki castle when Konoha interrogators realized she wouldn't give them any useful information.
"Why even bother? Your village threw you away like a piece of trash," she then leans against her cell and grins, " don't tell me you still believe you can become Hokage." When she sees him turn his head to the side and not respond she bursts out laughing. "Hahahaha! Oh my god you do! You a masochist or somethin'?"
"Tayuya that's enough," a voice says sternly from the right, revealing another woman with tan skin, white hair, gray eyes with multiple circles in them, green bandana that she tucks her hair into and the same outfit as Tayuya, "at least he's trying to do something instead of just waiting around."
"Tch, whatever Ryuzetsu, he needs to learn there's no returning to that village. What would they even do if he does manage to escape? They'll either send his ass right back here or execute him," she then sits back and leans against the bars, "the best options he has are to either stay here and rot like they want him to or find somewhere else to live if he does escape."
Ryuzetsu looks at a now meditating Naruto, "as much as I'd hate to admit it, she's right. Konoha threw you away without even a proper trial, it's obvious they don't want you anymore…"
Naruto lets out a deep breath as he opens his eyes, revealing red slit ones instead of his usual blue. "Where would I even go? All nations most likely know of my criminal status by now, I wouldn't be able to live anywhere."
Tayuya perks up, "you could go to Sound, no one would care who you are there."
Naruto scoffs before closing his eyes and meditating again, "and deal with whatever asshat took over since Orochimaru died? No thanks."
Tayuya rolls her eyes, "whatever but if you escape, you better bust me out too, I'm tired of being in this boring ass place."
"I'll think about it." He responds with his eyes still closed.
Ryuzetsu looks at the blonde quizzically, "why are you meditating anyway?"
An orange pigment begins to form around his eyes but it dies down and he grits his teeth in annoyance before opening his eyes once more, "before I was taken here I was learning to become a sage under the toad summons so I'm trying to replicate it. Once I can, I'm killing Mui and fighting my way out of here."
"A sage? You sure you can do it? Not even Orochimaru could manage that." Tayuya says getting interested.
" I was on the last stretch of my training before being put in here, I just gotta get the feeling right." He once again closes his eyes to begin meditating.
-Two Weeks Later-
Naruto is breathing harshly with seat pouring down his forehead, "finally, I did it…" he says breathlessly, the only hint of his new power being his eyes themselves which has the same orange pigmentation as before and are blood red with a vertical slit pupil and a horizontal bar crossed together.(1)
Tayuya lets out a low whistle, "yer eyes kinda make you look like a cross between a fox and a toad."
Naruto stands up, feeling stronger than ever before, going through some training kata in his cell, he grins, "a fox huh? I bet it's thanks to the one in my gut."
"What will you do now? Do you think you're ready to escape?" Ryuzetsu asks, admiring the form just like Tayuya.
"I'll-ugh!" Naruto is cut off as he falls to a knee and his sage mode comes undone, surprising the two girls.
"Oi shithead you okay!?"
"Heh, is that care and worry I hear from you Tayuya?" Naruto says with a smirk as he gets up from a knee.
Tayuya blushes before her face twists into a scowl, "shut the fuck up you asshole! Who the fuck cares? Not me!"
Ryuzetsu smirks as well, "Hiding behind cursing are we?"
The pink haired girl splutters before growling, "shut up! I saw you eyeing him like a piece of meat earlier! You got turned on by him too-Fuck!" she begins bashing her head against the cell bars when she realized her slip of the tongue.
Ryuzetsu blushes at the admittedly true accusation, when Naruto was in his sage mode his eyes made him look so feral…maybe she's been in this prison for too long.
Naruto sits down, chuckling, "bottling up your true feelings isn't healthy Yuya."
Tayuya flips him off while holding her forehead against the bars, "fuck off shithead."
Chuckling once again he turns his attention to a slightly blushing Ryuzetsu, "as for your earlier question, I'll be making sure I can at least hold this mode for a long time or at the very least quickly get back into it, but it shouldn't take too long. By then Mui will call me for one of his experiments and I'll use that opportunity to escape, after coming back for you two of course."
Tayuya sighs and goes to lay down on her cot, "countin' on ya shithead."
"Yes it would be nice to be free."
Naruto smiles at the two before meditating again so he can perfect his new technique, with it he will secure their freedom.
-One Month Later-
"Uzumaki! Mui wants to see you!" a guard yells out as he bangs against the bars of the blonde's cell, waking up all three prisoners in the cellblock.
"Gah! You fuckin' limp dick asshole! Couldn't ya be quieter? I'm tryna sleep!"
The guard, taken aback by the cursing from the pink haired inmate, begins sputtering before he's cut off by Naruto.
"Oi let's just get this over with already so I can go back to bed," he says with an annoyed look on his face.
The guard nods, unlocking his cell, "follow me and no funny business."
"Yeah, Yeah," Turning to the two girls, he winks with a grin on his face as he walks out of their cellblock causing Tayuya to do the same as Ryuzetsu dons a small smile.
Following the guard Naruto notices they aren't heading to the usual place, instead they were going to the courtyard, narrowing his eyes in suspicion, he prepares himself for the worst.
When they arrive, Naruto is surprised to see a huge black box that was definitely not there before as a middle-aged man walks up to him.
"Ah Uzumaki, welcome."
The man has long black hair and is wearing a military style uniform with a brown belt and silver buckle. He also has on brown close-toed boots instead of typical ninja sandals.
"Fuck off Mui." Naruto says as he spits on the ground, showing clear distaste for the man in front of him, "why'd you bring me here."
The man smirks, before facing towards the giant box, "that my dear boy is because today my plans will come to fruition all thanks to that brute A and the spinelessness of the hidden leaf."
Naruto frowns at the mention of the Raikage and his former home, "what do you mean?"
Mui begins chuckling, "it is so easy to fool a man who only thinks with his muscles, you could even, oh I don't know...send in a ninja under a simple transformation to look like a certain jinchuriki with a penchant for cloning himself to attack him in his sleep." He says looking at Naruto with a smirk causing the blonde to widen his eyes and grit his teeth in anger.
"It was you..."
Mui's smirk widens, "yes it was, and thanks to Konoha's 'peace loving' attitude they wouldn't risk a war with Kumo just like the Hyuga incident over ten years ago." The older man taunts as he walks toward the box, "the fools gave me the one thing I needed for my ambitions. With this box powered by the nine-tailed fox's chakra I will take over the shinobi world and shape it in my image!"
Naruto, who at first was extremely pissed about being framed, immediately went into a deadpan. "Take over the shinobi world? To shape into your image?"
"Exactly Uzumaki, with the power of the box I will-"
"That has to be the dumbest thing I've ever heard." Naruto says, cutting the man off, "like really? World domination is the best you could come up with? Trying to bring peace to the world through force would have been better."
Mui's face turns into a fierce scowl before once again going back to a smirk, "I would not expect one such as you to understand my ambition, but no matter." Waving toward the guard to open the box, Mui looks back at the blonde. "I'll be sure to remember your noble sacrifice."
"Bite me."
With that last retort a guard opens the box and another shoves Naruto in as they quickly close it again.
"Well done men, with this no one will get in our way and we will live like kings!" Mui exclaims aloud as the men in the courtyard cheer. "Fools, once that boy is absorbed, I'll make sure that demon gives all the power to me and me alone."
Turning around, the man begins walking away while issuing orders, "the prison is to remain on lockdown until tomorrow, by that time the deed should be done."
"Yes sir!"
-Inside the Box of Ultimate Bliss-
Getting up from the ground Naruto begins to grin widely, "I'll have to thank Mui when I get out of here. I wasn't planning on going into here until after I had killed him and all his men, but right now is just fine."
Naruto chuckles as he goes into sage mode instantaneously, "now to go find this 'demon' I sensed earlier," he says to himself as he walks deeper into the box.
After a few minutes of traversing the darkness Naruto's senses go on alert as he quickly dodges to the side in time to avoid a giant clawed hand, "so the main show has finally arrived." he says with a smirk as he can sense a huge being within the darkness observing him.
Getting in a ready stance Naruto sprints towards the demon, extending his nails and slashing at it as the demon dodges, but an invisible force extends from his hand, cutting the giant's face and making it screech in pain. Landing on the ground and pivoting, the blonde goes for another punch, but is sent flying back by a giant fist.
Doing a flip midair and landing on his feet, Naruto wipes some blood from his mouth, "tch, this thing is damn annoying, especially with this damn seal Mui put on me," clapping his hands together he molds as much chakra as he can Sage Art: Fox Fire Stream! A sea of blue flame stream from his mouth, covering the demon and setting it ablaze.
During his training he realized that as long he used nature energy he would be able to bypass the seal and use jutsu while in sage mode. Thanks to this he was able to create a few of his own leading to the creation of a new sub element, fox fire, a combination of his wind nature and the nine-tail's fire nature to create scorching blue flames that could easily decimate a forest.
Cutting off the stream of flames to see the damage done, a loud, piercing screech is heard, blowing the azure fire from the demon, lighting up the box and letting Naruto get a good look at the burns on its dark skin. "So that hurt ya huh?" Naruto asks with a large grin, "well there's plenty more where that came from!"
Holding out his hand, a blue ball of flames appears before splitting off into nine that surround him, jumping into the air he thrusts his hand forward, shooting the flames at the monster, as it dodges the scorching balls of heat, before taking off into the sky, roaring at the blonde. Wreathing his arms in blue flame, Naruto dives toward his adversary, Sage Art: Fox's Claws!
The two meet, large black hands against flaming blue ones, that is until Naruto smirks and opens his mouth as the beast roars, Fox Fire Stream! Shooting the flames directly into the demon's mouth prompting it to yell in pain, losing the power struggle they were having and allowing Naruto to assault it with a multitude of burning punches.
"Come on! You're supposed to be a demon aren't you!? Fight back!" He yells out as he finishes his combo with a double hammer fist to the face, sending it flying to the ground and making a large crater. Landing in a crouch as the beast struggles to pick itself up, Naruto narrows his eyes as he feels the air around him get heavy with chakra.
Opening its mouth, a mass of chakra forms into a giant red sphere, causing the blonde to open his eyes in slight surprise at its size. Deciding it would be a good idea to at least knock the technique off course, he crosses his fingers and summons two shadow clones.
Holding his hand out, Naruto begins to concentrate chakra into, forming a glowing blue sphere of chakra that is quickly enveloped by wind natured chakra as he raises it over his head and subconsciously adds blue fox fire to the technique Sage Art: Rasenshuriken!
Winding back the blonde sage throws the jutsu just as the demon releases its own technique. As the two spheres of destruction near each other Naruto dismisses his clone, does a one-handed seal and body flickers away just as the two jutsu collide, causing a large explosion that leaves the demon temporarily blind.
Appearing behind the behind foe, Naruto smirks, "check mate."
Numerous red chains with barbes links and hooked ends burst from his back and wrap around the winged demon, causing it to yell out in surprise and pain as it falls to the ground. Smirking Naruto walks up to it as it struggles to get loose, "while this was fun, you're my friends and I's ticket to freedom and if there's anything Pervy Sage taught me it's to never keep the ladies waiting." Uzumaki Style: Adamantine Absorbing Chains!(2)
The demon begins to squeal and thrash in pain as the chains digging into its flesh glow brightly as it takes away all its chakra. This continues for a while until it finally falls still, before crumbling to dust.
Naruto falls to his knees, doubling over in pain as changes begin to happen to his body. His whisker marks become deeper and his canines extend giving him a feral look. Two blonde fox ears pop out from the top of his head and a single fox tail bursts from his lower back. "Fuck that hurt!" He thinks to himself panting, "but there's still more I need to do..."
Sitting on the ground, Naruto gets into a meditative position and closes his eyes as he begins to absorb the residual chakra in the box. Though he opens his eyes when he hears the familiar drip of water.
"My mindscape huh? Haven't been here in a while..." Standing up, Naruto begins walking towards the direction of his tenant stays. A few minutes of walking later, Naruto comes across the familiar sight of large cell bars with a giant red eye glaring at him menacingly.
"Why are you here you damn human?" A deep voice growls out in annoyance, "how I wish that demon killed you so that I may be free."
Naruto smirks, and walks closer to the cage, easily catching the claw sent at him by the nine-tails, "that's not gonna work this time," tightening his grip, he breaks off the nail causing the tailed beast to snarl in pain, "remember a few years ago when I asked for rent? I recently decided I have no need for a tenant anymore."
The fox growls as the same red chains from before appear, "you damn Uzumaki and your chains, you are as bad as the Uchiha and their accursed sharingan!"
Naruto sends the chains through the bars and the wrap around the beast, "sorry about this, but at least you'll live on in me," he says closing his eyes as his chakra flares, activating the technique. Adamantine Absorbing Chains
"Curse you and your entire bloodline!" The fox yells out in pain and frustration as he slowly gets smaller and smaller before disappearing altogether along with the cage and the seal.
Opening his eyes once more, Naruto feels more pressure coming from his lower back, right where his new tail is. Suddenly eight more explode out from the same spot, giving him nine blonde tails in total.
"Kurama huh?" He mutters to himself as the fox's memories begin to flow into him, "and you must be my mother, Kushina," he says aloud as he turns to face a bewildered redhaired, purple-eyed woman in a white shirt and green dress.
"N-Naruto?"
Naruto cracks a small smile, "hey mom.."
The woman runs towards the blonde and embraces him, tears filling her eyes, "oh, my baby boy you've grown so much ya know."
Naruto returns the hug and smiles softly, "yeah, I'm almost seventeen now."
Kushina hugs him harder, "I'm so sorry for not being there for you. I saw everything, all your memories. I-"
"Shh it's alright, I had some good times too and you and dad did your best to protect me from Kurama that night." He tells her soothingly as he strokes her hair, "don't blame yourself."
She sniffles before chuckling, "you really are a man now huh? To think you were so small when I held you that night..."
Naruto wipes a tear from her eye, "yeah, so you don't have to worry, I'll be fine."
"Heh I guess I don't," she then begins to glow, "please get your father from the Shinigami's stomach, I wish to be in the afterlife with him."
"Of course mom, that will be the next thing I do after I break out of here."
Smiling she cups his cheeks with her hands, "I'm so proud of you Naruto, thank you for allowing me to be your mother."
Putting his forehead gently against hers, he begins to tear up slightly, "and thank you for bringing me into this world."
With one final smile Kushina disappears into gold flakes but not before some of them flow into Naruto and he sprouts two golden chains from each wrist.
"A happy birthday gift huh mom?" He looks up as his mindscape begins to change. Instead of a sewer it is now a grassy plain filled with crimson spider lilies, "thank you."
Closing his eyes and opening them once again he finds himself back in the box but with several black pills in his hands, "these might be useful for later."
Pocketing them he stands back up and stretches, idly noticing his fox features are gone, "I wonder how long I've been in here. I hope those two aren't too worried."
Naruto was about to bust out when he saw the door open. Grinning, he sprints toward the exit, cocks his fist back and slams it into the first guard he sees.
The impact was so hard the man's neck broke and he was sent flying until he hit a wall with a loud boom. The rest of the guards and Mui are stunned to silence as Naruto stands up to his full height and waves at the men, "hello~"
Mui's face twists into rage as he stares at Naruto's form. "Uzumaki! Where is the demon of the box?!"
Naruto begins chuckling, "we had a little disagreement, but don't worry we settled it and I got all of his chakra from the deal."
The black-haired man snarls at the blonde but it turns into a smirk as he puts his hand in a single seal, "you're more of a fool than I thought boy. You forget I put a seal on all my prisoners and with it I'll control you and make you give me that power through force!"
Mui then flares his chakra to activate the seal as Naruto falls to the ground and begins to scream and convulse causing the older man to laugh maniacally as he walks up to the downed blonde, "haha, you see Uzumaki? You were always meant to be nothing compared to me!"
"AHHHH...just kidding~" Naruto says as he quickly gets up and grabs Mui by the throat, lifting the man into the air while choking him.
The man's eyes are wide with surprise as he tries to claw his way out of Naruto's monstrous grip, "b-but the seal."
Naruto rolls his eyes, "come on man, I'm an Uzumaki, seals are kinda in my blood." Well, more like the seal faded away as his body changed due to the influx of chakra from the demon and Kurama. Though having the memories of a being locked inside two Uzumaki seal masters did help his knowledge of fuinjutsu.
Mui grits his teeth as Naruto increases his grip, "you damn brat. Fine! I'll just activate the seal on those two girls of you-"
"Yea, not gonna happen," two golden chains come from the wrist holding up Mui and wrap around his neck as well. Uzumaki Style: Adamantine Sealing Chains
"M-my chakra!" He looks at the boy with rage, "what did you do with my chakra!?"
Naruto shrugs as he creates four clones, "I sealed it away of course," he then turns to face the clones, "alright, two of you go around, slaughter the guards and free the prisoners, but leave the ones that are scum and make sure to disguise yourselves. You, take this," he says as he hands off Mui to a clone and faces the last one, "you and I are going to get Tayuya and Ryuzetsu."
"Aye boss!" The clones respond with a salute as the first two disappear in a burst of speed, one headed into the prison and the other ripping his way through guards while the original and the last clone head towards his two companions.
Arriving at the cell block, he calls out to them. "Hey there! did ya miss me?"
Tayuya and Ryuzetsu immediately look up and face him, relief and happiness on their faces.
"Shithead, what took you so long? I thought you would bust out immediately and what happened to Mui? The seal is still on my damn chest." The pink-haired girl asks as the original comes by and rips her cell door open, with his clone doing the same thing with Ryuzetsu's.
"Yes, we were both quite worried, Tayuya was especially irate, she threatened to castrate the guard that came to deliver food," she says with a smile as she walks out of her cell.
"You bitch! Like you were any better!" Tayuya yells out, becoming angry as Naruto begins to chuckle, drawing her ire even more.
"Well, it turns out Mui wanted to feed me to a demon in the Box of Ultimate Bliss," he says, getting a gasp from Ryuzetsu, "though his plan failed as I defeated it and absorbed its power, but I'll tell you the full story later, and besides, I brought souvenirs!" Naruto takes out two pills from his pocket, handing one to each of them and the girls look at them confused.
"Uh what are we supposed to do with this? They look like normal food pills"
Naruto smiles, "that, my dear Tayuya, is concentrated power from the box, swallow it and not only will you gain more power, the seal on your chest will disappear along with the one Orochimaru gave you.
Thinking on it for a bit before saying 'fuck it' Tayuya pops the ball into her mouth, chewing it a bit then swallowing, "ya know, it didn't taste as bad as I thou-ACK!"
The girl falls to her knees while gritting her teeth surprising Ryuzetsu as she goes to try and help but is held back by Naruto's clone, "what are you-"
"Shh just watch."
Looking back to her friend she widens her eyes as Tayuya goes through changes.
Her hair becomes longer and wilder, going to a deep red as her skin darkens, her nails and canines lengthen and horns sprout from her head. Her body, which was malnourished from the years of being in prison began to fill out as she grew taller.
As Tayuya finally stops convulsing she stands up and opens her eyes revealing yellow eyes with black sclera, "fuuuck that hurt like a bitch..." she mutters as stretches her shoulders, "holy shit my tits got bigger! My ass too!" She states in surprise as she immediately begins feeling herself up.
Naruto sweatdrops, "is that really the only thing you noticed?"
Tayuya shrugs, "I mean I feel stronger too, like a lot stronger and the form is like my second stage curse mark but more...free I guess? Like there's nothing holding me back."
Naruto nods, "yeah, this form is your own now without any of Orochimaru's influence."
Tayuya smirks as her horns recede and skin lightens back to its normal shade, "heh, bitchin."
Naruto then turns to face his other companion and smiles, "your turn Ryuzetsu."
Nodding, the woman swallows the pill as well, gritting her teeth and holding herself as black horns come out either side of her head, ripping the green bandana and unleashing her long white hair.
Two white scaled wings burst from her upper back and a white tail rips a hole through her shorts as black markings begin to appear on her skin; one strip around her neck, a dotted line around both her biceps, two strips on top of each other on her upper right thigh and finally a diamond flanked by two outward facing triangles on each side on her sternum.(3)
"This feels incredible..."
Naruto smiles, "and with that done, we can finally leave this place. Sound good to you two?"
Tayuya scoffs, "I've been ready to leave this shithole since I got here."
"It's the same with me," Ryuzetsu agrees as she returns to her normal form.
"It's settled then," Naruto picks Tayuya up in a bridal carry, much to the girl's embarrassment as his clone does the same to Ryuzetsu before disappearing in a burst of speed and arriving in the courtyard where he sees the clone he told to hold onto Mui sitting on the man with a bored expression.
"Sup boss, you ready to go now?"
"Yup, just gotta do one more thing," he jerks as he gets memories from his two clones, "looks like the other two did their jobs, even disguising themselves as some non-descript ninja."
Looking over to the man on the ground he smirks, "I guess I should thank you for something Mui you bastard. I'm now free of any responsibility to Konoha. I thank you for your noble sacrifice." He taunts with a feral smirk.
Going into sage mode, which now included his fox tails and ears, he began to float into the air, holding out his hand and forming a deep purple rasengan with a white ring around it as the area becomes thick and heavy with his chakra, freezing the remains guards in their place.(4)
Ascending high into the air while holding Tayuya in one arm and a clone carrying Ryuzetsu he begins to speak, "and with this Naruto Uzumaki dies, for now at least." Great Spiraling Ring
Dropping the technique, the trio watches as it falls before the prison is covered in a massive explosion reducing the structure to rubble, destroying the box and killing Mui and any remaining guards or prisoners.
"Holy shit..." Tayuya says in disbelief at the destruction.
Ryuzetsu stares wide-eyed at the crater caused by the jutsu but feels a heavy weight in her heart lifted now that the box has been destroyed and her friend had been avenged.
"What do we do now?" She asks turning her head back to face the blonde.
"Now we-" he stops speaking as his eyes widen and he snaps his head to the right in alarm before smiling softly. "Kiyomi..."
-A Few Minutes Earlier, Dirt Road-
Two women can be seen walking down a dirt path.
One has long blue tinted black hair that reaches her ankles with a single bang going between her onyx eyes. She has on a black no-sleeve one-piece dress that ends mid-thigh over mesh undershirt, a navy-blue obi tied around her waist with a tan belt, navy-blue fingerless gloves and finally kunoichi boots with a white sole and heel that double as stockings that reach her knees, all under a black cloak with red cloud patterns.
The second has mid back-length red hair that is spiked on the right and straight on the left. She wears brown glasses over her pupilless red eyes, a lavender shirt with long sleeves that exposes her navel, black shorts, thigh-high stockings with ninja sandals and the same black cloak with red patterns as her traveling partner.
"Can you sense him Karin?" The black-haired woman asks looking at the redhead.
"Yeah but barely, it's like his chakra is being muddled by something."
"Probably some seal those bastards put on him..." she says in slight anger. Her want for the destruction of Konoha increasing ever since she heard of Naruto's imprisonment.
"First, they make Itachi slaughter the clan, now they throw Naruto into prison. Konoha is trash." She mutters darkly as her eyes shift into their new form.
Her previously black eyes change into three red intersecting ellipses on a black background, however in the center is a three bladed pinwheel, a gift from her older brother Itachi.
At first she was hesitant to replace her original eyes with his to gain the eternal mangekyou but with the news of Naruto's imprisonment she decided to go through with the procedure so she may break him out without the fear of going blind midway through.
"Do you honestly think he'll help you Kiyomi?" Karin asks looking at the raven-haired girl, "anytime you talked about him he seemed to really love Konoha."
"He's already felt Konoha's failures firsthand, once I tell him the rest of the truth I know he'll help me."
Karin just sighs at Kiyomi's words, she's always been a stubborn one, "fine, do whatever you..want..." she trails off as her eyes go wide in shock and she stops dead in her tracks.
Kiyomi stops walking and turns to face her companion after she notices Karin no longer next to her. "Karin what's wrong?" she asks while raising an eyebrow.
Karin doesn't respond, as she stares out into the distance, falling to her knees, making Kiyomi rush over to see what's wrong, "Hey are you okay-"
BOOM!
Snapping her head toward the explosion, she looks at it with wide sharingan eyes, "What the hell was that!?" The dust and shockwave from the explosion eventually reach the two, causing the Uchiha to move in front of her still catatonic friend and shield the both of them. Susanoo! An ethereal purple torso wraps around the two girls as the winds pick up, almost knocking down the trees around them.
"Shit that was in the direction of Hozoki Castle! I hope Naruto is okay."
When the winds die down she cancels the technique and looks down to Karin, "hey Karin, can you still sense Naruto? What happened with that explosion?"
The redhead just mutters incoherently in response, "s-so b-big, s-so w-warm," she says lowly with a shudder as Kiyomi shakes her, until she herself feels a massive chakra signature approaching at high speeds. Standing guard over Karin, she unseals her chokuto from her wrist and gets in a ready stance but as she does, she notices the large chakra source feels...familiar.
"H-he's h-here..."
Just as Karin said those words four figures appear in front of the two, floating in the sky. One she's never seen before, another since she abandoned the village and the last two..."N-Naruto..." she says under her breath in wonder at his new form.
"Hey there Kiyomi. Congrats on the win against your brother by the way." The blonde says with a smile as he and his clone lower themselves to the ground, releasing Tayuya from his hold.
The Uchiha immediately runs up and embraces him with a kiss, something he swiftly returns, "wow, didn't think you'd miss me this bad. Maybe I should go to prison more often," he jokes lightly.
"Shut up idiot," Kiyomi says as she looks up at him with a small smile, before frowning, "there's a lot I need to tell you, about the village, about Itachi, everything."
Naruto smiles and pats her head, "I got some stuff to tell you too, but first I think you should introduce me to your friend, she may have had an accident," he says, nodding his head in the direction of Karin, who has a large wet spot on her shorts, looking at him with wide eyes. "I didn't think my new sage mode was that intimidating..."
Tayuya sniffs the air, "uh, that ain't piss..."
"Ah damnit!" Kiyomi moves away from Naruto and goes to the redhead, "can you uh, turn that off? She's like an ultra-sensor so I think you overloaded her."
"Ah, oops my bad," he chuckles while rubbing the back of his head and powering down. "She has red hair and is a super sensor? She must be an Uzumaki."
"H-huh? What happened?" Karin is knocked out of stupor and begins looking around confused.
"What happened was you jizzed your pants from sensing shithead's chakra." Tayuya replies to her without any tact.
The redhead blushes deeply before becoming annoyed, "and who the hell are you? You pink-haired tomboy?"
Tayuya scoffs, "is that the best ya could come up with four eyes? You-ow! What the fuck Ryuzetsu!?"
"It's your own fault for blurting it out so callously," she then turns to Karin, "sorry about that, I'm Ryuzetsu, and she's Tayuya."
Naruto then walks up to the group while scratching his cheek in embarrassment, "yo, I'm Naruto, sorry about that I was just so excited to see Kiyomi again I rushed over here," he says before looking back to his old teammate, "what's up with the akatsuki cloak by the way?"
Kiyomi helps Karin stand up while shaking her head, "I'll tell you later, that explosion definitely attracted some attention so we should get out of here."
"That's true, I want Konoha and Kumo to believe I'm dead so it would be best to go."
Kiyomi puts Karin on her back as her legs are still wobbly, "okay, there's a cave a few miles out Karin and I rested in on our way here. Follow me." The Uchiha girl takes off into the trees followed by the newly escaped convicts, all three happy to finally be away from Hozoki Castle.
-Later-
Arriving at the cave, the group of five settle in just as dusk is approaching, using a small fire jutsu Kiyomi starts a campfire that lights up the cave.
"So, you ready to tell me about the new club you joined?" He asks with a raised eyebrow as he sits in front of her.
Kiyomi sighs and tucks some hair behind her ear, "I'll start from the beginning, it's been a wild few months.." Seeing the stressed and tired look in her eyes Naruto opens his arms, prompting her move over to him and melt into his embrace.
What followed was a full explanation of everything the leaf did, pushing the blame of the nine-tail's attack on the Uchiha then sending Itachi to massacre the clan while taking blame, but finally the release of Naruto's jinchuriki status to the village so the villagers have a common enemy.
"And your parents-"
"Minato Namikaze and Kushina Uzumaki."
Kiyomi looks at him shocked when he cuts her off with his parents' name, "how-"
"Right before I destroyed the prison I was put in a box as a sacrifice to a demon. I beat it however and used a new technique to absorb its powers leading me to my mindscape where I absorbed the nine-tails, getting its memories as well." Naruto says with a shrug.
"After absorbing it I even met my mom's chakra imprint, my dad was supposed to be in there to but as a failsafe if the seal was ever broken. But since it faded away instead his imprint didn't show up."
Kiyomi then turns around in his arms and looks at him, "don't you think we should get revenge on the leaf for how they treated us? You were treated as an outcast for containing the very thing that could have destroyed them. They even worship your dad as a hero without even telling you who he was."
She then leans into him, wrapping her arms around him. "I even remember those times when you'd go to the Third Hokage to ask about your parents only to come back with a defeated smile on your face while Hinata and I tried to cheer you up! Doesn't it piss you off? We should destroy that village-ow!" Her rant is cutoff by Naruto flicking her forehead, leaving a red mark.
Looking up, she sees Naruto with a soft smile on his face, "calm down, I thought the avenger stuff would end once you killed Itachi."
She wriggles out of his grip and stands up with a furious expression, "how can you not be angry at the village?! It should be destroyed for what it did to our families!" She yells as her eyes spin furiously into her mangekyou.
Naruto stares calmly into her eyes with a neutral expression, "so you'd kill all those who had nothing to do with this? The kids too? Even Hinata?"
Kiyomi's eyes widen at his questions, "what? N-no I would never!"
"Then let's say you destroy the leaf, what would all those homeless families and clans do now?" He gets up and stands in front of her, "I'll tell you what would happen, Kumo, Iwa and Kiri will flood into the Land of Fire, raping, killing, pillaging and kidnapping all those with bloodlines until there's nothing but orphans and bitter people behind."
"T-then what do I do?" She asks sadly as tears begin to fall from her eyes, "Itachi didn't deserve to live with all that guilt, the clan didn't deserve to be slaughtered like sheep and you didn't deserve to live alone from birth..."
Naruto pulls her into a tight hug, "I'll admit at first I wanted to bring the village to its knees when I was first thrown in prison. But that inner rage just turned into disappointment as I spent more time there."
Lifting her chin so she can look at his face, he smiles, "now I don't care about that village, but you're right something must be done."
After calming down Kiyomi's eyes turn back to normal, "and what's that?"
"We're going to assassinate the three village elders of course!" He exclaims in a cheerful voice, "those three are the ones who agreed to oppress the Uchiha and from what you told me Danzo especially is at fault for a lot of the things that went wrong with our lives."
The Uchiha heiress sighs and smiles, "okay fine but what will we do after?"
Naruto's grin widens, showing off his large canines, "we make our own village! One that will be free of corruption with us at the lead, no elder council, just us and a select group of people to make sure it prospers just like the First originally wanted."
"Really shithead, you want us to run a village? Where would we even make it?" Tayuya cuts in as she, Ryuzetsu and Karin walk into the cave with supplies. She has changed from her previous attire to a loose white crop top tied at the front with a long sleeve mesh undershirt, black leggings, black knee-high ninja sandals and a black beanie on her head.
"Where would we get the funding to make one? Each country already has their own and if not they prefer samurai instead." Ryuzetsu speaks up, now in a black backless tank top, black biker shorts, black shin-high ninja sandals and her green bandana on her head tied in such a way to let her long white hair flow freely. "Here you go by the way," she adds handing him some clothes.
"Thank you Ryu," he says with a smile, "as for a place to start and funding, we'll just take over a minor village, in fact I already have one in mind," his face turns into a smirk as all the girls look at him confused.
"Well? Which village is it?" Tauya asks impatiently tapping her foot against the ground.
Naruto waves her off, "patience my dear Yuya, I'll tell you all later, there's some business to be taken care of in Konoha first, starting with the Village Elders."
"But before that," Naruto pulls out two black pills, "this is for you and Karin."
The two mentioned girls look at the round objects in his hand curiously, "what is it?" Karin asks.
"This is concentrated chakra from the demon in that box the warden put me in, swallow it and you'll be way stronger than before." He says, placing one in each of their hands.
Karin looks at Naruto with a raised eyebrow, "is it safe? I've never heard of anyone eating pure chakra before."
Tayuya scoffs, "just eat the damn thing, it ain't gonna kill ya."
Ryuzetsu nods along, "both of us had already eaten it and we're fine."
Glancing at each other, both girls nod and pop the pills into their mouths, chewing slightly before swallowing it. Karin is the first to react, falling to the ground and holding onto her neck as she spasms. Her teeth sharpen like those from Kiri as gills form on her neck. A single red shark-like fin bursts from her back and a scaled fish tail that has purple fins running down its length comes from her lower back.
Kiyomi is next as she kneels holding her head in pain. Her canines extend into fangs as her long hair begins flowing up wards, coming together in eight different strands until they form snakes at each end, hissing and showing their fangs while atop her head to small white horns appear.
Standing up the two girls inspect themselves and Karin's eyes widen when she takes off her glasses and notices she has perfect vision. "I don't need glasses anymore.." she then rolls up her sleeves, "m-my bite marks...they're gone." Slipping out of the robe and unzipping her lavender top, tears begin to well up when she sees unblemished skin. She can finally wear whatever she wants without having to deal with the shame of covering her bite marks.
"Why are snakes coming from my hair? And why do I have fangs?"
"That's the side effect of ingesting the chakra of that demon, the same happened to Tayuya and Ryuzetsu," Naruto says as the other two girls transform. "Tayuya is an Oni, Ryuzetsu is a dragon, Karin looks to be a Ningyo, you, Kiyomi are a Yamato no Orochi and I," his blonde fox ears and nine tails pop out, "am a Kyuubi no Yoko"(5)
"Like the old demons of legend..."
"Exactly. Oh, and you girls are probably immortal now hehe." All the girls except Tayuya widen their eyes in surprise at that statement.
"I-immortal? Like how Orochimaru wanted?" Karin stutters in surprise.
"Yup~" Naruto says as he begins to undress, "for all intents and purposes we are yokai now or at least some type of hybrid."
He then gets dressed into a pair of black pants with gloves that reach up to his bicep that have red studded straps wrapped around it, same as his shin-length shinobi sandals. He decides to leave his chest bare and instead wears a long black cloak whose collar is lined with fur.(6)
"Heh, this has to be my best prison break ever." Tayuya says as she puts on a large grin, "a huge ass power boost and immortality? Sign me the fuck up."
Ryuzetsu smiles as well, "and with us being ageless we can make sure our village doesn't go corrupt."
The blonde nods his head and turns to the other two women in the cave, "so, you girls wanna join us?"
Kiyomi smirks, "fine with me. But I call dibs on taking Danzo's head."
Karin doesn't hesitate in agreeing, "I'll come too. I don't really know about running a village but I'm willing to wait and see."
"Great! Now let's head to Konoha! I can't wait to see Hina again!"
-END-
A/N: So? What'd you think? It wasn't too bad I hope.
(1): Think the eyes he had when he confronted Pain. It was his sage mode mixed with the nine-tails' chakra.
(2): I will always find it B.S. Naruto never unlocked chakra chains in canon especially after meeting Kushina in the seal. So, I gave him these as well as have him absorb his mother's chains to use.
(3): Ryuzetsu's transformation is based on the female lead from the manga 'An Evil Dragon That Was Sealed Away For 300 Years Became My Friend'.
(4): That rasengan-like attack Menma used during the movie 'Road to Ninja'
(5): Tayuya is an oni since that's the vibe I was getting from her curse mark stage 2 transformation.
I chose a white dragon for Ryuzetsu because the technique she used at the end of the Blood Prison movie called Dragon Life Reincarnation and the fact her tan skin and white hair reminded me of the female lead from the manga I mentioned earlier.
Karin was chosen as a ningyo due to her healing bite and the fact that in Japanese folklore its said if you capture and eat a ningyo you'd gain eternal life so I thought that would fit.
Kiyomi is a Yamata no Orochi due to the chakra she absorbed from Orochimaru when he tried taking over her body, much like Sasuke did in canon. And before you say, 'But Itachi sealed all of that away with the Totsuka Blade in their fight!' I know, let's just say there was some of it left over. Its fanfiction, it doesn't have to follow canon 100% of the time.
Finally, it should be self-explanatory why Naruto is a Kyuubi no Yoko. Not only did he have one sealed in him at birth but he was also marinating in its chakra throughout his conception in Kushina's womb. (This also gives me an excuse to give him fox fire as a nature transformation.)
Also, if you want to see the characters and how they look in their transformations, head over to my subreddit r/FilthyCasual543. I always like having a visual aid when I'm reading fics, so that's where I'll post art related to the stuff I write. Another thing, Karin's outfit will be different as its what she changes into next chapter, so think of it as a small teaser.
(6): Menma's outfit from the movie 'Road to ninja'.
