Hello readers and welcome to the next chapter of my story. Now I am sorry that I skipped last month but honestly I just had the month fly by without me even noticing. Now I am still very busy with the house and life stuff but I SHOULD be able to manage with my plan seeing as I want this story DONE. My other stories need some love and I feel like I am dragging it along like I said…I also think that for future stories I might finish it or at least get a good chunk ahead to not have to rush on months like last month. Anyways now let us get on with the show.

Chapter 95

= Allied forces kage meeting room =

"The team that was sent to explore the found base has not responded to our calls for updates in several hours. We fear that they may have not survived an encounter with the enemy" A woman tells the kages with a serious look on her face.

"Tsk, those bastards" A grumbled not pleased with the news.

"Yes…we must assume that they were killed off. But they have at least shown that there is enemy far too close to comfort." Onoki states.

"Indeed" Mei agrees with Gaara giving a single nod beside her.

*sigh* "Send out a squad of ANBU to do recon. If the enemy is too strong; they are to value their lives over searching for the missing squad." Tsunade ordered getting a small bow before the woman left to have to inform squad captains.

+Several hours later+

After being made the squad of ANBU formed a uniform group even though they were from different villages. This quickly led to a proper chain of command that let them waste no time reaching the base that was found. Leading to a portion of the group standing still keeping an eye on the base's door

"Base location confirmed no friendlies remains found" one of the ANBU call out after they finished examining the proximity.

"Understood. We will be going inside of the base." The leader states the looked over to the radio carrier who had a few team members close by.

"If we face something that can overrun us you are to take our reconnaissance member and flee as fast as you are capable of. Meanwhile you WILL be reporting what is happening to the best of your ability. Even if we perish the base needs to get information to help the rest of the force." The captain orders getting nods.

"R-roger" the recon ninja meekly mutters. "So this is how ANBU are like…just being in their presence is something else. I will do my best to follow orders." He thinks mentally bracing himself.

After this they enter the base carefully only to see loads of black liquid making puddles around the pathway. Still they pushed on clearing each room while avoiding the unknown substance as much as possible. Finally, after a long travel they found themselves in the same room that the previous fight happened.

"Judging from the scene around us this is where the only battle in this base happened. There was clearly casualties on both sides but not enough to show what happened to our full squad." One of the ANBU states looking around. Another gets closer to the allied forces corpses and examines them even further.

"Hmm It appears that several of our forces were on their way to being infected by Orochimaru's black blood. The reason seems to possibly be the black fluid around us but all the corpses have been soaked and only some of them show the monetarization." Another member states.

"With lack of other reasoning it can be assumed that the black fluid that has spread through this entire base evenly could only be from the pipes that have been placed on the roof of each of these rooms. Also it can be noted that while everything else is wet the enemy planned this as an attack." The stated. With that being said they quickly searched the corpses to see if they could find anything they could use for information before finally leaving the base noting that whatever enemies were there had left already. Though this also assume that the rest of their missing allies were now zombie like creatures following their lead.

~Main base~

"So our squad fell to a trap that actually ended up being the entire base. How crazy are these bastards that they are willing to go that far to give us a small blow…does that crazy bastard not understand who has more troops here?" Tsunade asks stunned.

"Pheh that young upstart must think that he is better than he actually is." Onoki states angerly.

"Yes…but we must inform everyone to make sure no one falls for such a trap again. If they turn into those things then we are doing nothing but bolstering their troops." Gaara states.

"Indeed but perhaps, we can use this against them in the future as well. After all as far as we know there is no cure to their infection." Mei adds.

"Heh as if we even need to. That bastard will realize just how weak he is compared to my men soon enough." A states proudly.

"Well at least most of us are smarter than Orochimaru thinks" Onoki mutters.

"Hah, you got something to say to me midget?" A growls out with a glare.

"Ok enough! This is not the time or place for your guys' stupid fighting. We have a war to fight!" Mei calls out stopping the two men with a glare at both of them. "Honestly only Gaara-san is worth even thinking about as a marriage candite here.." Mei muttered under her breath. Thankfully though both of the kages cooled off rather quickly and the meeting went on smoothly without any internal fighting happening…for now.

+ A while later +

After briefing the allied forces a large group was yet again sent out to map out the area and to find more enemy bases and locations. Though armed with the new information each group was even more cautious then ever during their missions. So, when several groups from the sound were found they were investigated as much as possible before they were reported. After which most of the groups were either killed off or kept under surveillance. But with most of the sound troops wandering around being the weakest versions of daku and/or more cocky fighters they were dealt with mostly by the first method.

"…report to the kages that the squad in A-14 has been terminated without casualty." A ninja called over to their communication officer. "Everyone else prepare the bodies for termination following proper daku protocols." She added looking around her.

"Yes mam!" most called out doing just that.

"Heh, its great that we are destroying these fools so badly without any real effort. We should be able to go home as war heroes before the moth is up." A man states with a smirk imagining all of the fun he would have as he is fawned over for being a 'hero'.

" Chunnin don't get cocky. While we are making a lot of successful progress we also should always keep in mind that we have no idea what Orochimaru and his projects could end up brining us…after all we've seen more than enough of these dangerous things." Another man reprimanded while gently kicking a dead daku making sure not to launch any blood in the air.

"Che fine…" the chunnin mumbled knowing that the other man was right. They were ninja after all; deception and surprise is kind of their bread and butter.

Still time passed on as the allied forces made a decent amount of progress in taking over the land surrounding the sound village.

~Sound village meeting room~

"Lord Orochimaru the enemy is making quick progress through all of our search squads without taking any damage. While we have been able to track them we aren't seeing the losses on their side that we expected." a head researcher stated with a frown.

"Che as much as I hate agreeing with the pencil pushers…the progress towards us is getting rather annoying to see. Please allow us to show them just what actual fighters are capable of while they have their heads up their asses praising themselves." One of the major leaders of one of the ninja gangs states holding himself up in front of his master proudly.

"Kukuku. Perhaps you are right…I was hoping that more of them could be transformed without having to use our troops but it seems the basic daku are worse than I thought." Orochimaru states with a small frown that lasted only a few seconds before disappearing from his face. "Kabuto-kun please send out several squads of fighters to push back the ninja…but make sure to have the troops take back all the studding materials they can." Orochimaru states neutrally. "It seems that even the cannon fodder that lines most of the villages is too much for regular daku…no matter they still will be usable for taking over civilian villages. What's important now is to test the body enhancements we have 'gifted' people and hopefully get them to bring back some more unique bloodline users for sampling." Orochimaru thinks still not truly thinking about the war as what it was. But rather as a massive field for him to test the various things he has done before while collecting new bloodlines to mix into the people he has already. His goal still being to create a body capable of doing ANY justu he wished as he lived eternally. With that on his mind Orochimaru calmly left the room ignoring the calls from the squad leaders around him.

~back in the meeting room~

"H-he left…he actually fucking left." One of the ninja states stunned.

"Heh of course Orochimaru-sama did. He is far too busy with his projects to deal with simple issues like this. Now prepare all your men. I will give out orders with the hour." Kabuto states with a smirk while already thinking about the various men and combos to send out. After all he had the same idea as Orchimaru for the most part at this moment. He just would make sure that they wouldn't lose that much as they tested things.

"Now listen here four eyes! I may listen to Orochimaru who's S rank speaks of his power for himself but I ain't gonna listen to some nobody like you when I don't have to." One of the men states out with a glare.

"Calm down you fool Orochimaru did tell Kabuto to send out our men…and he is the most knowledgeable of the situation currently with all the information fed to Orochimaru-sama falling into his lap as well." A ninja beside the man stated. For while he wished to show his power and command as well being a powerful figure in the village he knew the dangers of the man that sat in front of them. "Anyone who is able to be the right hand of someone like Orochimaru must be a powerful enough piece to at least be on even grounds with us. Even if he isn't ranked or known anywhere that doesn't make him any less dangerous." The calm man thought as he looked over at the young man sitting across the table. For not including the researchers all those that sat around the table had A or B rank bounties and a page filled with all the various 'accomplishments' they had in the past. But everyone of them had looked around and never once saw Kabuto in any of the bingo books or in any wanted lists around the elemental continents. Something that many of them took as weakness but the smarter of them easily noticed that anyone that actually tried to act on their desire of the position disappeared.

Something that quickly was proven right when a bright flash flew by before most of them could hardly react. The ninja around the table quickly looked in the direction the flash went to see a scalpel stuck in the wood of the chair the angry man was sitting on. The only damage the weapon did otherwise was a fine scratch on the man's face that only made him angrier.

"You fucker!" the man yelled and tried to get up only to find himself wobbly when he did so.

"Yes thank you for getting your blood pumping so fast it only is allowing that poison to work even faster in your body." Kabuto states with a smirk as his glasses reflected the light to block everyone's view of his eyes. "I felt I didn't need to actually say this but this buffoon has proven me wrong….just because I am not out there making everyone and their children know my deeds does not mean that I am not strong. It just shows that I am acting more like a ninja than you are and doing things while NOT getting caught... also know that I am Orochimaru-sama's right-hand man for a reason DO NOT question my skills or I will show you that it is a mistake." Kabuto tells all of the table releasing a massive amount of KI. Enough to put all the ninja on edge and make the researchers come close to passing out.

Still Kabuto left it at that and calmly stood up and walked towards the door as the man he poisoned finally feel to the floor as the poison continued to affect him. Kabuto looked over at the man after a small sight and threw a vial at one of the other ninja who caught it easily.

"Know the only reason you are being saved is because of your use in this war. You will NOT be spared again if you dare to question me again." Kabuto states firmly. Then looks at everyone else. "Again I will be giving all of you your troops orders soon. Have your men prepare…and feed that idiot the antidote before he dies…his buffoonery can at least be thrown at the enemy." Kabuto tells the group then left.

"Heh he really got you good there man." One of the leaders states with a smirk as they poured the vial into his mouth.

"S-shut y-your tr-trap." The man mutters out fighting the poison the best he could to keep even a little bit of his pride.

+ One and a half hours later+

Just as Kabuto had said he quickly created several squadrons of the available ninja and assigned them various tasks to impede the allied forces progress. So, with only a few extra orders from their leaders each group was sent out ready to follow their orders to the T.

After leaving the first group found the allied forces squad within only a few hours and didn't even try to hide themselves as they immediately attacked killing off a few of them.

"Enemies dead ahead attack!" the allied forces called out but were quickly overpowered by the stronger group of ninja.

"Ke ke ke. Come on guys Kabuto-sama has finally let us free to fight as much as we want. Let's bathe in the blood of our enemies!" A sound ninja yells happily yelled out getting a loud cheer from those around him.

"Idiots…you were let out to fight but that doesn't mean you get to forget your mission…but whatever as long as I can report that the task got completed I won't have any problems with Lord Kabuto" Kabuto's messenger thinks knowing that failure was meet only with death or something even worse.

So, they all charged as fast as they could several long-range attacks being sent out of various strange weapons and even some from mutated/changed body parts. These attacks took some of the allied forces by surprise but the battle soon began with the allied forces having some form of unity compared the sound who were doing as they pleased.

In the start the battle was leaning towards the wild sound ninja who had surprise helping them. But after the allied forces got their formations back in order the fight turned the other way rather fast making the sound leader grimace as he watched.

"Tsk, great these 'warriors' aren't worth all the hype they thought they would be. Oh well at the surveillance team got some information about the test weapons and the enemy…but we need to thin out their numbers more than this…else Kabuto-sama will surely be enraged." The leader thought as more and more of his squad died.

"Men activate module C14-12." He quickly ordered out and all the men who followed under his orders took out their piece as soon as they could. After all the way the hierarchy worked in the sound village was anything other than completely following your superiors' orders was taken as an act of defiance.

So, most of the sound ninja got some space and quickly pulled out a small yellow sphere from their pouches. They all then quickly swallowed the pill before anyone had a chance to react. The results of the pill were felt immediately with each partaker feeling a massive spike in their power as their muscles swelled until they were visibly ripping their clothes. After which each member rapidly grew various animal like features.

"Hahaha it works they all are now monsters in EVERY sense of the word." The captain states with a wide smile while happing to be one of the few members of the group that was not transformed.

"W-what the hell is this?" several of the allied force troops called out stunned. Still they tried to fight against the transformed troops but with their boosts the already crazed fighters were more blood thirsty than ever.

"Grah ha ha! You fools couldn't handle us without ganging together like pussies before why do you even think that you can handle us like this!" a tiger mutated ninja growled out happily as his new claws tore through his enemy's flesh. All around him the rest of the group was doing the same as they tried to use their new strength and body parts as best as they could until finally the last allied ninja died by their hands.

"No! This is not enough! Boss seeing this pool of blood has gotten my blood thirst stronger than ever!" one of the men called back at the leader who just laughed.

"Well then who am I to stop you guys from having your fun. Kabuto-sama ordered us to fight back the ninja but said nothing about just how much we had to do. So go my men! Go fill your thirst for blood until no one is left! Just make sure that none of you fools dare to let them kill you or Ill kick your ass, got it?" the leader called out making everyone's vicious smirk grow even larger.

"Yes fucking sir!" the all called out. And with that being said they split up in several smaller groups and spread out in all directions.

" Kekeke I didn't say anything about them spreading out but that don't matter anymore." The leader states as he walks to a nearby boulder and sat down. "That pill will run out at some point and that will be the end of their usefulness to us. It sucks that I will lose my gang but I'm sure Kabuto-sama will reward me greatly for this success." The leader states imaging his promotions and rewards while not once thinking about what the rest of the sound ninja sent out were doing.

As he did this his group was following his order and making quick work of the weaker allied force members though they were slowly losing their numbers as damage built up on their bodies and they faced stronger ninja.

"Kekeke die!" the tiger man called out happily thrusting out his claws at a ninja until he felt a pulse go through his entire body. Then before he could even think about the pulse he felt the power that filled him quickly fading from his body as his ballooned muscles went back to normal. "W-what" was all he could mutter as he felt pain quickly fill his body as it realized all his muscles were torn and abused far too much. Course his enemy paid him no mercy as he was unable to finish the job and quickly moved past his arm and ended his life with a well-placed stab to the heart. "D-damn it" was the last thing he muttered as he felt his life fade into darkness.

This problem quickly stated happening to all the others who took the medicine leading to them all being quickly taken out with little to no effort. Seeing this the leader of the groups clicked his tongue in annoyance but didn't seem too disappointed over all

(AN: from this point on I am sorry if there is some stupid errors. I tried to fix it up a bit but due to the time crunch to get this out I didn't go too crazy with it….I wrote all of this while my eyes were dilated after an eye doctor appointment so I couldn't see what I was doing really)

"Well, it sucks that it came to an end far too soon but at least we got a decent amount of kills before my cannon fodder died off…though I can't help but wonder when each side is gonna stop dicking around and send in some big guns." The man muttered but then shrugged off the thought. "meh, its not like it has anything to do with me. I just hope I get some good rewards for my losses... and I hope the watchers that the eggheads take care off were able to get some good information from those pills." He added waling back towards the sound village with greed in his eyes. Afterall if you could get that kind of power without the side effects then who could possibly resist it?

=Allied forces side=

Meanwhile on the other side of the field the allied forces were licking their wounds after dealing with the remainders of the attackers. All of the joy of success was now torn apart as they lost hundreds if not thousands of men to the weird creatures the men they fought became.

"Damn it why does this always happen!" A samurai complains with his helmet off as he rested around a crude camp. "Right when we get somewhere the sound bastards always pull out some weird shit that manages to turn the tide of battle. I mean yea we should be expecting something like that but who would expect MONSTERS of all things to come from a pill…. not to mention the complete lack of care they seem to have for each other and for their troops." The man complains fully thinking that if all of the tricks were pushed to the side that they would win easily

"Would you calm down? Complaining about things won't get us anywhere." A calm woman stated sitting close by to the man with a cup of tea "While it is unfortunate that we are facing these problems it also isn't the worst thing to happen. Yes, it is sad to lose our fellow comrades but we all knew we have the chance at all times. At least we can respect their lives by using the information we gain as the sound slowly use up whatever tricks they have…. we must win to appease the lost. It will just take time for us to step over each trick they set up as carefully as we can." The woman states then took a long sip of her tea. "Try to cool your emotions if only a little bit. Take this hit as a sign that we must keep our senses on high alert when around the enemy's turf." She finished trying to follow her own instructions. Though all could see the fire of revenge burning in her eyes.

~Another area around the war's zone~

Meanwhile in a different area a single ninja was walking around in seemingly a random direction.

"Bee you really should go back. This is not only a horrible tactical idea but your brother will also be angry" Hachibi states firmly.

"Heh, don't worry yo. Any enemy flea that comes near me will be dealt with in as a flea for I am Killer Bee! Ain't no fool gonna be able to keep up with me." Be states with a cocky smirk. For while he was smart enough to know he shouldn't be doing this he also heard the report of the troops being heavily hit by the monsters and wanted to give the forces a story of heroics to boost morale back up.

(Please note that I am by no means trying to insult anyone or make these lines sound anywhere near good. I just want to try and make his statements make a little bit of sense while being weird like in the real story….obviously he is a smart man with fighting skills but even in the fights we see in the story he talks this way….and I just cant be asked to make anything decent like they did so you get terrible slightly ryhymey lines from me)

"….I am gonna make sure you feel the punishment that your brother has for you in the future you idiot." Hachibi states not wanting to hinder his healing from said punishment as he normally would seeing as he couldn't have that cause his host to die on him. Still, he secretly felt a bit proud of his host caring for the people enough to throw his own life at risk rather than sit back until called upon.

Still killer B walked on occasionally finding groups of enemies like the daku and sound squads. Course with all of them they tried to get rid of the well-known man only to fall to Bee's ability and ample use of the perks a jinchuriki got. He t truly didn't have any major goal or idea of what to do but instead wanted to try and thin the numbers around the area. Something that quickly was being noticed with both cheers and fear from the various groups he found. But all things need to come to an end at some point or another and Bee found his when he watched as three coffins rose up several yards in front of him. Out of those cases he saw three people come walking out and vaguely remembered hearing stories about one of them being an A rank threat that tried to assassinate their kage in the past.

"Oh who are you fools? Come to beat to the music that the wonderful Killer Bee throws out? Ya ready for a bout?" Bee asks getting into a stance while the beast in his head shook his head having long since gotten sick of his hosts horrible way of speaking.

*sigh* "Four eyes said I would at least be able to fight some decent people while I am stuck under this jutsu's control…but the first person I wake up to fight isn't someone good but instead a fool that has no rhythm…if I could I would rip his throat out next time I see him" one of the men states annoyed.

"…You seem to fail to remember that we shouldn't even be alive right now. Quit enjoying this and try to fight the orders we are being forced to do like a proper ninja would you." A woman beside him stated.

"Pheh what do I care. When I died, I was a missing ninja seeing as I couldn't help but kill anyone that I thought was a decent fighter. With that twerp bringing us back somehow it just means I can do it even more" the first man states without a care.

"…men like you should remain in the graves they were given…you have no pride of your country." The last man stated with a disproving look.

"Heh, whatever you say. Last I checked YOU are doing the SAME thing as I am right now…. oh and we all ended up in the dirt as well so what difference does it matter how we lived?" the first man stated with anger. Though apparently whatever called them out had enough of their conversation because all three of them quickly lost the life in their eyes and acted much more doll like than before as they drew weapons and faced Killer Bee. Course in the time they were arguing said ninja already closed the distance and surprised them with an attack before they were fully in their stances.

"Lariat!" Killer Bee called out ripping one of the men's head off in a single blow. "Yoush two left" He thought as he looked back only to be surprised as the man he 'killed' not falling over but rather seeming to be growing a new head somehow.

"…It seems that the snake brought out a new trick be careful Bee." Hachibi states only getting a nod from Bee who was putting a lot more focus on the fight. Instead, he quickly pulled out all of his swords and took on the attacks his enemies gave him with out taking a hit.

"Hmm it seems that each of these fools can stand the test of time. It seems I need to up the class of this dance much more than I like." Bee thought watching as the small wounds he created seem to heal in no time flat So, he quickly devised a plan and slashed at one of them with each of his blades getting some deep hits as one single person was unable to block his high-speed attacks. So, with a smirk he got lower into his stance and launched past the man with all of his weapons either around him or incorporated in his new stance. Meanwhile the man behind him was left falling to pieces as the lightening enhanced blades sliced through him easily creating several pieces of the previous human.

Seeing this Bee turns his attention over to the two others that were attacking him and quickly jumped a bit back to avoid a few jutsu. But just when he was about to retaliate, he felt his danger sense flare up again and did a substitution jutsu to get away from the area. Something he was happy he did as the log he was replaced with now had earth spikes going through it. He only kept his eyes on this or a second before looking around for the reason and saw that the man he thought was dead was now around half a body and had his hands falling down to the ground as if he finished a jutsu.

"Tsk you fools wont just die." Bee grumbled annoyed. "Mr. Eight I am gonna need some chakra please." Bee asks Hachibi mentally and quickly feels the demonic chakra enter his system as a response. So, with a smile he quickly grasps the charka and mixes it into a ball of energy in front of his finger.

"you zombie freaks get ready to see something neat. Your life is about to end in a quick sec so don't get cold feat." Bee sates in a bad rhym as he launched the attack at the three who were now pretty close to each other.

When the bijudama hit the ground, it quickly exploded into a rather large zone taking all three of the enemies inside of its blast radius. The explosion created a massive amount of light and noise for a few second until nothing was left but dust that quickly began to settle. Killer Bee watched on carefully as it did so; watching to see what happened to the enemies. Though when he couldn't find any signs of them after a few seconds he quickly decides the fight was over.

"I suppose I should go back and tell brother. Maybe this new information will make me not have to worry about Big bro's punisher." Bee mutters knowing the new strange enemy needed to be talked about. So, with that in mind he left the area and headed back to the main camp.

~Sound Village~

Meanwhile back in the sound village Kabuto frowned as two small pebbles crumbled on the rather large game board, he had in front of him.

"So, the rapping demon holder has some more skill than our spies previously thought." Kabuto states with a frown sad to lose some of the reanimated shinobi he had but was happy that it at least wasn't any of the bigger names. "Just you wait though I will make sure we win this battle as smoothly as I can…I just need to deal with fools like you." Kabuto states looking out a window knowing only a few ninjas would be able to deal with the reanimated ninja by completely destroying them.

Yes, I know that Madara was able to come back from basically nothing but in my story that just seems a bit too ridiculous. So, I am having it so that the reanimated ninja can be taken care of using seals like the show did but also can't come back if they are completely destroyed. I mean come on there isn't something to come back from. Also the reanimated troops aren't as good as they were in their normal lives seeing as they are either fighting through orders that doesn't let them do their normal things. Also, a good portion of them are trying to prevent their bodies from being used making them even harder to control. So even if they were A or S rank in their lives it isn't hard for me to think of them being a few levels down when reanimated.

Anyways that is where I am gonna end this chapter. And this one I actually feel good about even though I am still really busy IRL. Still I am not taking more than that month off unless I truly can't help it. So, fully expect my monthly posts to be up even as I struggle to figure things out that you don't need/want to know about. Ja Ne.
