Chapter 2: Deception

The battle between good and evil was over and as Naruto looked around him, he realized the damage both shinobis had caused to the nature. He was at ground zero a place devastated by the collision of light and dark energy.

"Man, I am glad we only fight once a hundred years. We just devastated this area without even noticing it. It's a good think we were fighting in this secluded location away from the population… I don't want to imagine how many lives this might have caused if we were nearby a town or at a village", said Naruto while catching his breath.

"Well compared to 115 years ago, I would say this was the one with the lowest rate of human casualties. It would have been much worst if we had left him wonder around. Last time we fought, he had created an all out war and thousands of people had to die. We were lucky he didn't create much chaos this time. Then again that chaotic war helped change the society to its current stage, so I guess it was a good trade off", replied Kyuubi telepathically in its sword form.

"I don't see much of a trade off from what you say. We are still creating wars and always fighting someone… is there no end to this continuous bloodshed?" asked the teen.

"It's a human nature and it will never change; it's also the way humans evolve themselves. Things are changing bit by bit though. Thanks to the wars of 115 years, the shinobi villages became independent of their lords who used to use them like trash. It avoided the loss of many lives this era, although bloodshed still remained at least now the lords need to check their pockets before declaring war over their disagreements", responded back the sword.

"Yes but on the other hands look at what these villages had done for power, creating Jinchuuriki and god knows other evil ideas. Look at the victims, people like me and Gaara, who hated forever and just to be the tools of their war", replied Naruto.

"You know that you are technically no longer a Jinchuuriki, right? But I guess you are correct. That's why I always try to look on the positive side, at least now the people lives aren't thrown out so bluntly as before", said Kyuubi in a sad voice.

"Man Gaara is going to feel alone again, he is the only one left now, apart from that child molester. Besides from the way I see it, my situation won't change anyway. I will still be hated in one way or the other, it's my destiny I guess", Naruto admitted in a sad tone.

"He won't have to worry the bijuu of the Jinchuuriki that have died already are reborn and will probably be roaming around at their original location within a year. It won't take the shinobi villages to go and enslave them again, well may be 10 years at max. As for your situation just let the time handle it, I am sure sooner or later they will realize that you and me aren't as bad as they described us", said the Muramasa with good laugh.


"By the way, you plan to stay in this form for long? I thought you would be happy to transform into your youma form and roam around for a bit after 15 years", laughed Naruto trying to change the painful subject.

"I would love too run around but there is two things stopping me: major chikara depletion from fighting that bastard and the fact that your friends are on their way here soon. I can already sense them, I am pretty sure you don't want them to see me on my old happy shape now do we? Besides, why bother when you can carry me around while I rest", replied the Fox with his usual evil laugh.

"Ah now that's something new I never thought about you, a lazy fox. Who else apart Gaara is on their way? God I just hope its not some annoying people again I am not in mood for their questioning. I am still wondering how to explain this situation", grunted the blond shinobi as he lay on his back looking at the sky.

"Well, I guess it's not your lucky day. Not only do you have your Hokage, perverted sensei and your former sensei heading towards us, but also a whole bunch of those annoying teens that used to be in your class. Oh and top the ensemble who else better then that gay Snake who is just about to hit you with one of his snake jutsus", yelled the Muramasa, as one of Orosuke's snake from his senei jashu tried to bite Naruto, which he evaded easily while grabbing his sword.

"Oh great, what are you doing here fool? I must have really done some bad karma yesterday to face two freaks on the same day", said Naruto while shaking his head.

"Greetings, Uzumaki Naruto-kun I see that you have defeated the one called Uchiha Shisui. I was so looking to gain his knowledge as Uchiha Itachi told me before getting his head chopped. I guess that means you must have more knowledge then him, so it doesn't matter anyway I shall learn yours instead and become the strongest shinobi in the world", said Orosuke in his usual cynical voice.

"This snake is getting on my nerve! Want me to blast into oblivion?" asked Kyuubi by glowing his halo blade that only Naruto could understand.

"That won't be necessary, besides if you say what is right then the others are not far behind so you better not transform, I don't intend to kill him anyway. Weather I like it or not Sasuke is still in there. I am sure Sakura and that old hag will figure out with a way to bring him back one of these days", replied back Naruto.

"Oh I see you have a nice glowing sword with you? But I am sure it's no match for my Kusanagi no Tsurugi", says the snake man as he takes out his of his throat by using kuu no tachi jutsu and attacks the blond shinobi.

"Okay now he is taunting me. I swear if you don't make up your mind, I will personally kick his butt. Don't tell me your just going wait here and dodge him all day, just pull one of your katsu eizou and let's slice this bastard to death", said Kyuubi.

"You know I cannot do that… besides he has mangekyou sharingan also and in this scenario he will most likely take a scramble in a minute I can't let him copy my jutsu", replied Naruto.

"Look, why wait for those two to figure out how to fix your buddy when I know one already? Just use the ashiseirei tekishutsu. All you have to do is stab him with my halo blade in one of his less vital organs and follow these seals", replied the Kyuubi.

"What the hell does that jutsu do?" asked Naruto, while avoiding another of Orosuke's attack and replying back with a kick on his face.

"I see you have gotten very fast Naruto-kun but your still no match for this body of mine", laughed Orosuke by taking his tongue out.

"… For a former sennin, you really are gloating too much about your precious new body. What makes you think I am even trying to really fight against you? I still won't understand how that bastard could accept to carry a gay-child molester like you", grunted back Naruto.

"The ashiseirei tekishutsu is a jutsu that extracts the evil soul out of a body. After that you can kill him with the ashitama jikai, which would disintegrate his cursed soul. There is a catch thought it's a jutsu mainly used to extract any evil souls and is an exorcism jutsu. So if you use it chances are that you might also grab your friend's soul if he is evil also. So the chance of success is 50/50, better hope he has some humanity in himself, if he ever had any", answered Kyuubi as its halo blade clashed again with the Kusanagi.

"Damn that is still too risky, isn't there any other way. Oh sweet, I guess that guy really is part Sasuke who else would be stupid enough to try using chidori on me", said Naruto as he dodged the attack by kicking the Snake man and slapping one of his hiraishin seals while at it.

"Dude, it is the only way. Besides if he truly is evil then what's the point in trying to save him anyway, he will just become another version of that freak", replied back Kyuubi.

"You can run as much as you like Uzumaki Naruto, but you cannot escape my Ultimate move that even Itachi could not avoid: susano", yelled the Orosuke as his body transformed into a lightning form and launched towards Naruto at his top speed.

But as he approached Naruto he was hit by a solar flare that blinded him partially and he missed his target as he crashed. Suddenly he felt a shadowy presence behind him as he realized that his enemy was behind him.

"I see that your overgrown confidence on beating up a half blind Itachi made you a pathetic fool. What did you think? I was blind as him to let you hit me without using my nissha shoumeidan? A move I prepared especially to counter your so godly called bloodlines. I wasn't sleeping under a tree for the last three years you know? You are gloating so much that you couldn't even figure out that I had place my hiraishin seal on you. This the end for you jackass, time for your to finally go to hell where you should have been a long time ago", yelled Naruto, as he trusted Ten-Mikazuki Myobu no Muramasa right trough Orosuke's left lung.

"Ah, that's the Yondaime's jutsu, never thought I would see it again but it doesn't matter, since you are equally a fool to leave your guard down to be stabbed by my Kusanagi. Unlike you I aimed at your heart, so guess who is the dead man", he said with an evil laughter.

However, Orosuke's laugh suddenly stopped as he notice that the person behind him was nothing more then a silhouette of the real Naruto who was a few inches away from it. He also felt something strange, as he noticing that something was pulling at his soul just like the time he fought Sandaime.

"Noo, this can't be… you pathetic fool how stupid can you be sacrificing yourself by using that jutsu!" yelled Orosuke.

"Looks like Uchiha's have a real hard time figuring out my katsu eizou, oh well. Who said I am scarifying myself for a scum like you?" asked Naruto.

"This is the shiki fuujin, that the Old man used against me three and half years ago", cried Orosuke as he felt his soul being detached from Sasuke's body.

"Nope, this is ashiseirei tekishutsu a jutsu specifically made to draw out the soul of a scum like you. Wondering what I am going to do with you now snake face? It's called time to go meet your Uchiha buddies in hell: ashitama jikai", whispered Naruto as he withdrew his sword out of the reverted Sasuke, while Orochimaru's soul is pulled in the Netherworld, as he screams in agony.


After forming the jutsu Naruto falls on his knees while Sasuke falls back on the ground lifeless. It was then that Naruto realizes that he is surrounded by the Konoha/Suna crew and notices a horrified Sakura.

"Good, the child molester is gone and your foolish friend will recover his body in about three days. Oh yeah, it's good that you didn't say that jutsu out loud as our other guests are here. I think your drama queen is about to freak out at any moment and I am in no mood to listen her lament about things she doesn't know. So if you don't mind, care if I hide within your shadow while you take care of your social problems? Patch up fast okay, we are about to go bankrupt on chikara thanks to today's odd adventure", asked Kyuubi, which Naruto nodded in agreement.

The Muramasa suddenly sunk within Naruto's shadow as the blond shinobi got up to face his charges from an angry Sakura.

"Naruto… how could you… do this? How could you KILL SASUKE-KUN? How could betray your lifetime promise! You bastard did that Freak inside you got hold of your mind? Too think I trusted you… YOU FREAK OF NATURE", yelled the pink haired Kunochi who launched at him only to be pushed back on Tsunade after Naruto slapped her.

It was an involuntary reaction from his part, but he knew she deserved it. It reminded him what Kyuubi had said about how human beings tend to blame without knowing the truth. It would have been okay if she was accused him of killing "her darling lover", but to call him and consider him a "freak of nature" was out of line and very insulting. Considering it was because he was a "freak of nature" that her loser lover is still alive. It was the first time he was really annoyed with Haruno Sakura. Something very new to him as he never ever felt that way about her. He just wanted her out of his face.

"You are pathetic and useless… Haruno Sakura, get lost from my view unless you really want to see death", he said calmly, as he walked towards Gaara, falling midway on one knee again.

"Oie you feeling okay? You look like you are about to faint. Baka, I told you to wait for me, what gave you the freaking idea to take on the leader alone like that", said Gaara as he helped him get up with his sand.

"Yeah, I am fine, just chikara depleted from taking a freaking ghost, his frenzy Tiger buddy and a freaking snake, I guess", said Naruto as he got up on his own, he made sure he hissed the word "freaking snake" hard enough for Sakura to feel his anger.

"You faced the Byakko along the Rei? Were you crazy or just stupid?" asked the Kazekage.

"Dude, I took them out didn't I? So chill out, I didn't take them all at once, just one after the other. I need to rest to recover my wounds, meet me in this location in one and half day. Come alone, if you want the tale. Till then I'll go and rest myself there while you come and join me, I'll wait for 3 days at max", replied Naruto with his usual expression, while giving a small note in Gaara's hand and placing one of his hiraishin seal on his gourd.

"Wait I'll heal your injuries" said Tsunade.

"Sorry, us freak of nature don't need or deserves the help of medics", added Naruto with a sarcastic voice.

"What you mean wait for you? How you intend to go there and why the hell you placed that weird seal on my gourd?" asked a confused Gaara.

"Well, it will take these folks 3 days at minimum to reach Konoha. The location I gave you is one and half day west of that path from here. That seal is for just incase Loverboy wakes up from his grave and decides to act like his old snake man. As for how I will get there? Simply like this", said the blond shinobi as he disappeared while he waved at them, leaving everyone confused.


"He used hiraishin… he must have put one on the location he directed to you Kazekage. Damn that kid, how many times did I tell him not to use that jutsu like a child play. It can be very dangerous for his health especially when he is lacking chikara like now" yelled an angered Jiraiya.

"I thought only sensei knew how to use it properly… Why did you teach it to him anyway? You know very well that he isn't the type to care about the rank of such a powerful jutsu", asked Kakashi.

"Its something that doesn't concern you and it was my late-pupil orders. It's his way of asking forgiveness for what he was putting him trough I guess. Besides if there is anyone who can use that jutsu it's him", grunted Jiraiya, remembering how he miserably failed attempting it.

Tsunade asked Lee and Neji to carry Sasuke's body when the Hyuuga genius alerted her that the Uchiha was still breathing but bleeding badly. She quickly realized what Naruto implied in his sarcastic tone and yelled at Sakura to stop sobbing and help her heal the last Uchiha. The words caught everyone by surprise, especially Sakura but they all obeyed the Hokage and proceeded to her requests.

Meanwhile Naruto reached the village he set up the appointment upon and rented a room in the local Inn. He quickly fell in deep slumber as soon as he reached his room, as his energy was critically low.

After the emergency procedures were done and Sasuke's bleeding had stopped, everyone set upon to return in Konoha, apart Gaara who left to find Naruto. Temari, who was accompanying her brother, wanted to go with him but the note assured that Gaara would be reaching Suna before she gets to Konoha. After some initial hesitation she agreed to comply with Naruto's demand, after all that was the man who saved her little brother in the first place. So she remained with the rest of Konoha group, which included the teams Gai and Asuma and traveled towards Konoha as Gaara requested her.

Even Jiraiya wanting to enquire more about his student abandoned his plan to pursue Gaara, as he felt that the blond shinobi needed some consolation with someone with his similar past. After all, Gaara and Naruto had became best friends during their trip to Wind country during the two and half year training.

As they walked both Sakura and Tsunade did not know how to cope with the situation, for one thing they had no clue what Naruto had did to Sasuke to put him in a comatose state. On the other Sakura was feeling guilty for her earlier remarks. It was clear that she was the reason why Naruto wasn't walking near them and she did not know what to do. The group slowly headed towards a nearby village as the night set in to rest.


While the night darkened, Naruto was still in his comatose sleep, when in his dream state he received a familiar visit.

"You handled it pretty well there", said the Kyuubi as he got inside Naruto's dream.

"I thought you said you didn't want to hear the lamentation, besides what are you doing in my dream?" asked Naruto.

"You call this a dream? It's just a world with nothing in it, an empty white chamber; this can't possibly be a dream. That girl's words hit you hard didn't it? I still don't know why you count her opinion so much", replied Kyuubi.

"I don't care what other think of me, if I did I would have been a crazy maniac way before we first met and this is my chamber of thoughts, since you are no longer here I made this place so I can just loose myself", replied Naruto.

"Ah now that a new part of you I didn't see. An Uzumaki Naruto who is trying to hide his inner feeling from me. What are you thinking about anyway?" asked Kyuubi.

"Just wondering why I get to be the lucky guy to be stuck with you, no offense. I wonder what Yondaime found in me to be used like trash. Was it because I didn't have any parents? I guess that must be the reason after all nobody gives a damn about orphans in this world", said Naruto.

"None taken, it's not like what you think though. I would love to tell you why but I made a promise to that guy to not reveal it to you. He said if you knew, you would hate him forever. But given your current circumstances it looks like you are hating him already, so I wonder if I should tell you or not, are you up for some more disappointments?" asked Kyuubi.

"Nope, I am not, had enough for one day. Hell I had enough revelations for a lifetime. I don't hate him, after all why should he care about me if my own parents didn't? My life is nothing to act as a tool anyway, it's not like I will ever be wanted by anyone. So why bother digging in my own grave even further. My life will be the same as always: living in Konoha and keep serving it like the dog that I am", said the teen in a sad tone.

"If you are so unhappy, why not take a leave from Konoha to refresh yourself? If I remember correctly you enjoyed your two and half years of travel with Jiraiya. Maybe somewhere along there, you will find some of the peace that you seek", asked the great Fox.

"Tsunade obaasan will never let me do that. She is more interested on throwing the Hokage gauntlet on my neck. She will think that I will become a slacker like Ero-sennin and then refuse the title of Hokage to become the writer some erotic novels or something like it", grunted back Naruto.

"Oh please, I am sure she will understand. Use her leave as an excuse, heck why not make a deal that you will work as shinobi while you travel and accept all the mission she send for you but only return to Konoha 1 day per year to recollect your payments. You do want to explore around the world don't you? After all, you do have the hiraishin to help you travel from a location to another faster then any human being on the planet and even if that's not enough I have some tricks of my own to make her demands possible. Think about it? I think she will gladly accept it. After all you might be going trough a grim moment but remember she became Hokage for you", replied Kyuubi.

"You got a point there, buddy. It's not like the villagers want me, near them anyway. I am pretty sure that the news that the great Uchiha Sasuke got KO by the Kyuubi should spread to Konoha before they reach there, so my haters will be waiting anxiously. So why bother keeping me there if they hate me that much, as long as I do my job? I'll get to it as soon as that old hag gets to Konoha. For now let us sleep, don't want to look like a future version of Gaara, when I meet the Sandman", laughed Naruto as he returned to his comatose sleep or recovery.


The next day as predicted Gaara arrived late in the afternoon and went to the blond shinobi's rented apartment only to find him sleeping like a bear in hibernation. However, as Gaara got close to him Naruto instinctively woke up. After his big yawn, he got off the bed and went for his usual sanitation, which included a hard earned shower. After that the two friends went to eat at the local ramen shop. Naruto was so hungry that he ate half of ramen of the shop, a new feat for the astonished shop owner.

As they began talking about their adventures over the demise of the Akatsuki, a female version of Naruto joined them; it was Kyuubi. He was filled with cash. Apparently Kyuubi had decided to tour the village while his master slept like a bear. So he took the form of one of his orioke clones. As luck would have it, the village's famous erotic photographer spotted him and offered to pay a hefty sum for his centerfold pictures. Since the body was just a henge and free cash was great, Kyuubi accepted and sold some naughty pictures of his fake body. Kyuubi's tale made Gaara laugh. The Sandman was a bit scared when a while ago Naruto told him about their partial separation. It had given him a bad feeling remembering how uncontrollable his own raccoon was. The only one who frowned was Naruto as he reminded his mischievous partner that Jiraiya was a subscriber of every known erotic magazine in the Five Great Shinobi Countries. Kyuubi told him not to worry for it now and enjoy the night. Enjoy they did as the 3 friends spent the whole night touring the village incognito.

The next day, a revitalized Naruto and his trusted companion sword Kyuubi teleported Gaara with him to Sand village with their hiraishin as he had promised. Gaara promised to keep the Kyuubi part out of his local newsstands, if they visit him time to time. Meanwhile, the Konoha crew was still a day away from Konoha, as they had to take more breaks then they had expected due to Jiraiya's misadventures in a local village. It gave Naruto some more time to organize his future proposal.


End of chapter 2
All right, just finished most of the battle scenes for this fan fiction. As you might have realized the title emphasizes the deception of Naruto towards a little miss pink kunochi who used the wrong words at the wrong time and without looking. For it, she received the words that she would have never thought of hearing from Naruto. It also created a major rift in Naruto and well he needs plenty of healing and this prompted him to think about becoming an adventurer/explorer similar to Jiraiya. So wait for the next episode for him to flying towards his new passion and goals. Please review so I can know what you like or not in the story!
