Chapter 3: Rebirth. Naruto vs Jakotsu of the Shichinin-Tai.

By: Sano-Dead83

Disclaimer: I own nothing relating to Naruto or Inuyasha or some various Final Fantasy references in future chapters.

A.N. - Thanks to a review I've realized that I was speeding things up a bit...well alot then and also leaving some very big plot holes. I want this story to be good so I'm redoing everything from this chapter and on up. Hope all of you guys can bear with me though. Anyways to those of you who still want SasuNaru well forget it, ain't happening.

A few days had passed since Kagome and the others encountered the Uzumaki's and the group was now on their way to a village for rest. Every now and then Naruto would get the feeling that someone was watching them, but shrugged it off as just a figment of his imagination. It wasn't like there was someone who knew the truth behind him and Kyuubi in his current location anyways. Kyuubi was trailing behind the group keeping a look out for anything that might try to attack them...and Sango's butt. Speaking of Sango, the demon hunter would ocassionaly look back at Kyuubi just make sure he wasn't doing anything perverted, but alas she fell prey to Miroku's wandering hands and said monk was now sporting a bright red hand print on his right cheek.

"Oi when are we going to get to the village?" Whined Naruto.

"It won't be long ya damn fox so shut up." Grumbled Inuyasha.

"What's the matter with you?!"

"You damnit, you ate all the ramen!!"

"I was hungry!"

"I was too but ya don't see me eating fifty cups of ramen!"

"But didn't you eat fifty-five servings of ramen when Kagome last bought some?" Said Sango.

"I just got finished fighting another demon.....and I was hungry then."

"Pig." Snorted Naruto.

"Dumb..what the....blood?" Said Inuyasha as his face frowned up in confusion before he lept up into the trees.

"What's the matter?" Asked Kagome.

"It's blood, and lots of it." Said Kyuubi as he took off after Inuyasha.

Casting wary glances at eachother, the rest of the group took off after the two. After a few minutes of running they came to see Kyuubi and Inuyasha standing over the mangled corpses of a samurai, men in blue uniforms, bisected horses and their riders, along with a variety of broken swords, spears, and some old matchlock rifles strewn across the area. Upon seeing the site, Naruto began to gag slightly before running off into the bushes and vomiting.

"Did a demon do this?" Asked Sango.

"No, there was nothing here but the scent of humans." Said Inuyasha.

"You mean that it was a human that did all of this?"

"Why is this guy just holding a stick with a wick on it?" Said a confused Naruto as he came from out of the bushes while wiping his mouth on his sleeve.

"They're a tangeshima squad." Said Kagome.

"Tangeshima?"

"I've heard rumors of them before, they're a group of men who use very powerful weapons called guns that fire a lump of iron that's capable of piercing a samurai's armor with little effort." Said Sango.

"But the way these men were killed...I've heard stories of men killed in this way but that was a long time ago...when they were alive." Said Miroku.

"You mean these guys?" Asked Kyuubi as he tapped a dead man's head with his foot causing it to roll off.

"No, there was a mercenary group twelve years ago that were feared because of their awesome strength, they were the Shichinin-Tai."

"So how'd they die?"

"From the stories I've heard, they were ambushed by a large number of samurai, beheaded, and burnt."

"That's kinda grim."

"No kidding, but there's no doubt about it, only a member of the Shichinin-Tai can cause a wide amount of destruction like this."

"Hello Miroku, you already said that the Shinchin-Tai were all dead."

"Naruto it's possible they could be alive." Said Kyuubi as he looked over to the blonde.

"Huh?"

"How?" Asked Sango.

"The only way that I know of reviving someone that has died is a jutsu found in the Forbidden Scroll from our village." Said Kyuubi.

"But people here don't know anything about chakra and jutsus." Said Naruto.

"True, but we shouldn't just close the book on that idea though."

"Or it could be a shard of the Shikon no Tama." Said Inuyasha.

"You mean that crystal thingy you're looking for?"

"Yes, and Inuyasha does make a valid point, after all Kohaku was ressurected and is now being kept alive by the jewel shard in his spine." Said Miroku.

"Who's Kohaku?" Asked Kyuubi.

"He's my younger brother." Said Sango softly as she began to walk away from the group.

Narrowing his eyes, Kyuubi took off after Sango while not notcing a figure trailing him from the trees. Sango was a a few yards down the road when she heard Kyuubi calling her. Sighing she turned around to face the red-haired youth anticipating him to try something perverted again.

"What is it?" Glared Sango.

"Why are you walking away, you know it'd be safer if you just stayed with the group." Said Kyuubi.

"I just need some time alone."

"Hey don't do that."

"You don't know how I feel."

"Don't go trying to state facts now, me and Naruto already know what you're going through." Lied Kyuubi.

"What?"

"Yep, both of our parents are dead, and on top of that Naruto and I have been hated by every villager of the older generations because of what we have in our bodies."

"What is in you that would make your village hate you so much?"

"We each have half of a nine-tailed fox demon sealed in our bodies by the Forth Hokage."

"So that's why we sensed a demon's aura on you two."

"Yeah, so if you ever start feeling lonely or anything you can come talk to me or Naruto okay?"

"Thanks...DAMN IT KYUUBI!" Yelled Sango as she hugged Kyuubi only to find that the ninja was groping her butt.

"What I cheer ya up and you don't expect me to get something out of this?" Smirked Kyuubi foxily before Sango slapped him.

"You pervert."

"You know you love me."

"My, my what do we have here, a demon exterminator and a demon ninja of some sort." Drawled a young man with dark brown hair placed into a bun , light purple marks underneath his eyes, bright red lipstick, wearing a lavender kimono with green lotus print, straw sandles while a large sword which was big as Naruto rested on his shoulder.

"Who are you?" Said Sango as she glared at the youth.

"Stay back Sango, this guy's sent was around back where all those men were killed!" Growled Kyuubi as he drew a pair of kunai.

"Oh, dear I guess that I've been found out." Said the boy.

"At least tell me your name before I rip you apart."

"My name is Jakotsu. Jakotsu of the Shinchin-Tai."

"Shinchin-Tai, but souldn't you be dead?" Said Sango.

"Not this time, but I shall tell you how me and the other members have been revived, the shards of the Shikon no Tama. We were all given a shard thanks to a man named Naraku, all in exchange that we kill the ones traveling with Inuyasha."

"Feh, try to kill us, you'll find that it won't be so easy." Said Kyuubi as he rushed Jakotsu.

Away from the battle, the others were finishing up placing the bodies of the fallen samurai into graves when they heard explosions coming from in front of them. Realizing that was where Kyuubi and Sango were, they all rushed over to the site of the battle where they saw Jakotsu standing in front of a bruised Sango and Kyuubi whom was sporting a large gash on the front of his jacket, but luckily no wound was made.

"Oi what the hell happened?!" Gasped Naruto.

"This is the guy who killed all those men back there, and that ain't all his name's Jakotsu of the Shinchin-Tai." Said Kyuubi.

"That fruity looking guy is a memeber of the Shinchin-Tai?"

"Yeah."

"But how can you get your ass handed to you by a guy so wimpy looking?"

"I guess it's our chakra, we don't know how to utilize our chakra properly and since we don't know how to we probably drained our levels when we did the Harem no jutsu on Inuyasha and Miroku." Said Kyuubi.

"Hmph, well it looks like I have to fight all of you now, oh how bothersome this is, anyways why don't you cuties come at me all at once?" Winked Jakotsu as he blew a kiss over to Naruto, Miroku, and Inuyasha.

"Ugh, just for that I'm going to kick his ass!" Growled Inuyasha as he rushed at Jakotsu and began to unleash a flurry of punches which the proposed reciever doged and blocked with little effort.

"Sheesh you're not even living up to your talked about skill, what a boring person you are." Said Jakotsu off-handedly as he grabbed Inuyasha by his fist and tossed him lazily to his right.

"Is it me or did that guy just throw Inuyasha ten yards away?" Gasped Kagome.

"I say it was thirty." Blinked Naruto.

"Now it's just down to you three."

"Like hell, I'm gonna kick your ass!" Said Naruto

"Ohhh you're a fiesty one. Come on and let me slice you up now, eh?" Smirked Jakotsu as he began to run at Naruto.

"Oh man, oh man, what am I going to do damnit?" Thought Naruto as he stared at Jakotsu when he remembered his training with Jiraiya and a certain technique which his Jounin teacher, Kakashi had performed on him, "Damn, it's a long shot but all I have to lose is my life....geez I hope this works."

"So you do have some fight left in you, this is getting interesting now."

"What is Naruto up to, he'll be killed." Said Sango.

"Those hands seals....oh boy is Jakotsu gonna be sore and mad after this...well he'll probably enjoy it but this is still gonna hurt." Said Kyuubi.

"What do ou mean?" Asked Miroku.

"Just watch."

"Alright you fruit cake, perpare yourself for Hidden Leaf's new Taijutsu supreme technique, TEN-THOUSAND YEARS OF PAIN!" Cried Naruto as he jumped behind Jakotsu and sent his hands a few inches away from Jakotsu's butt causing the Shinchin-Tai member to be blasted off into the horizon while clutching his butt in pain.

"I believe I speak for the rest of us here when I say, what the HELL was that?" Said Miroku.

"His varitation on a techinque called A Thousand Years of Pain, basically it's a higly concentrated blast of chakra that can knock back opponents."

"But it looked like he just shoved something straight up his ass." Said Miroku dryly.

"I know...."

"Yeah, I rule...but right now I'm gonna take a little nap." Groaned Naruto as he fell over.

"Is he okay?" Asked Sango.

"He'll be alright, but where's Inuyasha?" Said Kagome.

Approximently thirty yards away from the group....

"I can't believe that I just had my ass handed to me a by a lipstick wearing mummy....at least Kouga wasn't here to see this." Muttered Inuyasha as he tried to untagle himself from some tree branches he was caught in while an overprotective mother bird pecked him.

--------------------------------------------------------

Kagome: I can't believe that Naraku has revived the members of the Shichinin-Tai.

Inuyasha: I can take them.

Kyuubi: Inuyasha, Jakotsu sent your ass sailing a good thirty meters, just imagine what will happen if you fight the head of the group.

Inuyasha: That was just dumb luck.

Sango, Miroku, Naruto, and Kagome: Sure.

Inuyasha: Traitors.

Kagome: Anyways, we're now recovering from our fight with Jakotsu when we're once again attacked by Kagura, Kana, and whole bunch of demons and Naruto is still out cold after performing the Ten-Thousand Years of Pain. Everything starts to go downhill from there until Naruto comes to. Wait a minute, his eyes are red. Maybe things would have been better just fighting Kagura and her minions. Stay tuned for the next chapter of Foxed, Breaking Point! Demon Naruto Unleashed!
