Chapter 16: Mission Saviour

(Council Meeting)

Naruto and Tsume were both seated next to each other during the entire meeting.

Nobody but those Two knew it, but both had a Hand on one of the other's Buttocks and were smiling at one another as this was happening. After squeezing for a few Seconds though, they decided that the meeting was more important than having a good feel of the other's butt, so they pulled their Hand back and then placed both of their now free Hands on the Table.

"Alright, let's get this meeting started" Tsunade stated, getting everyone's attention.

"Alright, what is it you wanna speak with us about?" Chouza Akimichi asked.

"This meeting is about the Akatuski" Shikaku stated.

"Or more specifically, what the Akatuski are doing tat this point in time" Itachi replied.

"Which is what?" Hiashi Hyuga asked.

"Targeting not only Jinchurikis, but also small and defenseless Villages" Itachi answered.

Everyone sitting in attendance widened their Eyes at the sudden news.

"Why on Earth would they do that!?" Shibi Aburame shouted in question.

"Because they can" Shikaku replied. "It's as simple as that."

The entire Room started gnashing their Teeth in anger, angry at how the Akatuski could be so cruel as to pick in already weak Villages and people.

"There more to it than just that though" Tsunade added.

"There is?" Shikaku asked.

"Yes, but since Itachi knows more than I do about it, then he should explain" Tsunade said before turning to the Uchiha Clan Head.

"Thank you Tsunade-Sama" Itachi thanked before continuing on. "Anyways, before I left, they were always talking about how they wanted to do more than just capture each and every Jinchuriki, they also wanted control over all Five Elemental Nations. But the thing is, collecting all the Tailed Beasts first would take away the fun they get out of making people suffer with their own Hands and Power, so they struggled in what to decide, until now, because I just got word that they attacked The Land of Nails."

"So it's all just because it's funner for them this way?" Tsume asked angrily.

"Not just that" Itachi responded. "Think about it. What other reason would they want to take over more and more land for?"

Itachi then looked around the Room and when nobody answered, he did.

"They also want more places to meet up at and rendezvous without having to worry about being spotted by Kage Level threats, and of course, they also want the Supplies in any and all of the villages they invade, whether it be food, water, or money" Itachi explained. 'Knowing them as much as I do though, they probably sent Kakuzu and Hidan to do this.'

Everyone sitting in attendance gnashed their Teeth and clenched their Fists.

"Damn Akatsuki" Naruto groaned out in anger.

"Now listen, it's very important that none of you do anything dumb like try and fight them yourselves, as you'll only end up killing yourselves in the process" Tsunade let them all know.

"Then why did you tel us this?" Naruto asked.

"So that you all have a sense of awareness of what's going on and know that we are trying our hardest to do whatever we can to keep this from happening to us by keeping track of every village that they attack in order to predict which villages they will attack later on, and hoping that it's not ours until we all get strong enough to actually combat against them" Tsunade explained.

"Is that all?" Naruto asked.

"No, we also need to discuss the matter of what will happen to the Academy" Tsunade said.

"Whats wrong with it?" Naruto asked.

"Besides the Rookie Twelve, every Genin Team, even their Sensei's, are horrendously weak, so maybe the Academy at the moment isn't a good enough start to becoming a Genin."

They all then stop to think about what Tsunade just told them, as a certain part of it got to them. After just a few more seconds of this, Tsunade explained what everyone else in the room was thinking of but not saying

"If just the Genin we're weak then that'd be understandable and wouldn't be that much of a problem, but their Sensei's."

"Agreed" all the Ninja in attendance said in unison:

"So now the question is, how do we deal with this?" Tsunade asked.

And so they all put their thinking caps on and really put some effort in what the next move would be.

(With Iruka)

As this council meeting about the Academy was happening, Iruka entered said Academy, headed to his Classroom and then went inside to teach.

As soon as all the students saw the doorknob turning, all the girls started getting really hyped at the chance that they could see their hottest and favorite substitute teacher again. So it was needless to say that all the girls were disappointed hen their legitimate teacher came through the door.

Iruka made his way to his desk, sat down, and then told his class

"I'm back you guys, and I hope you all had fun while I was gone."

"Yeah" all the girls said weakly.

"Whats wrong, aren't you glad to see me here again?" Iruka asked his female students.

"They are, they just miss the substitute because they all have a crush on him" a Boy said outta nowhere.

"Shut up!" All the girls yelled with huge blushes on their faces.

Iruka just chuckled at their embarrassment and then thought

'Well it's nice to know that Naruto was popular with the ladies when he was here, since that sadly wasn't the case when he was in the Acdemy.' "It's alright girls, it's okay."

"Yeah, Iruka-Sensei says it's okay to fall in love with such a Handsome Boy" one of the Boys mockingly told all the girls.

"Shut up!" The girls yelled again.

Iruka just sighed and then told them all

"It's okay girls, it's okay. There's nothing wrong with just having a crush on a substitute."

"It wasn't a crush, it was pure love!" Kasumi stood up and shouted.

"Yeah!" Aoi agreed, before every other girl in the class also backed them both up,

"Well as I was saying, it's fine" Iruka continued after being so rudely interrupted by Two Girls. "So long as as you all know that you shouldn't do anything drastic over a silly crush like that."

This immediately ignited a fire on all the girls in the class who then shouted

"It's no silly, a drastic, or a small crush!"

Iruka decided that it would be best to just tell the girls now instead of having them try so hard to be with Naruto just for it all to be for nothing.

"Even if it is 'Pure Love' as you all say it is" Iruka started sillily. "He's taken."

As soon as those Two Words left Iruka's Mouth, every girl in the Class's Heart broke and Jaw dropped.

"What!?" The girls all shouted in unison.

"Yes, he is taken, so why don't we all just move on and start with the lessons now?" Iruka reassured.

"It's about time" every boy in the class stated before grabbing their books.

"Alright, Aoi, could you start us off by reading from the top of Chapter Twelve?" Iruka asked.

After about Thirty Seconds passed without so much as a peep outs Aoi, Iruka asked again

"Aoi, could you start us off by reading from the top of Chapter Twelve?"

Still no response. So one last time, Iruka asked her

"Aoi, would you please, read from the top of Chapter Twelve?"

When Aoi still didn't reply, Iruka decided he should at least try to cheer her and the rest of the girls up. So he said

"It's not like this is the first Boy you'll all fall in love with, so don't worry about it."

"But he sure as hell is gonna be the hottest!" All the girls shouted in reply.

"Alright I'm through with this, Ken, you start" Iruka said before said boy did as he was told.

As Ken was reading aloud, all the girls were saying

"How could he be with someone other than me" quietly, but because they were all saying it in unison in a relatively quiet classroom, everyone heard it.

After hearing this, Ken just stopped and sighed in frustration.

Iruka did the same and began to think of how to get the girls to shut up about Naruto already.

'What could I tel them, oh I know' Iruka thought as an idea popped into his head. "Either way, he has the CRA installed for him."

This immediately piked everyone's interest as they didn't know what that was, so Ken asked Iruka

"What exactly is the CRA Iruka-Sensei?"

'Perfect, after explaining it, all the girls should lose interest, as judging by how into Naruto they are, they doubt they'll agree with sharing him' Iruka thought before explaining.

After finishing how the CRA works, every boy had a look of envy plastered in their face.

'Lucky bastard' was the thought going on in the mind of all the boys.

The girls however, had a look of relief, and shouted

"Hell yeah!" In unison.

"And I'm gonna be a part of it!" Kasumi shouted.

"No, I am!" Aoi yelled back.

Defeated, Iruka just sighed again and reassured them all

"Even if you all do wanna marry him and think you have a chance, you're all gonna have to make Chunin first. Naruto has made Jonin, so even though he is only Twelve years Old, he is still referred to and treated as an Adult. So whilst there is only a Two Year Age gap between you girls and him, since all you girls are Ten, you still cannot go out with him until you too become at least Chunin, as doing so would be illegal."

The girls all looked disappointed at being reminded of this. This was because they knew this was coming and they knew that this was gonna have to happen even if Naruto didn't have the CRA, but they shook off the disappointed look they had on their faces and replaced it with a look of determination. They became determined to make Chunin, confess to Naruto, get accepted by him, marry him in the future, and lastly, have his Kids.

"Right!" The girls all shouted in unison before Aoi began reading from the section that she was given many minutes ago.

'Well it had the opposite effect I thought it would have on the girls, but they're participating again, and if anything, more determined and enthusiastic as before, so it all worked out for the better' Iruka thought before smiling. 'You really do have your way with the ladies don't you Naruto-Kun?'

(An Hour Later, With Naruto)

Naruto was exiting the Council Room with Tsume, and as he was, he summoned a small toad in order to go to the Uchiha Compound and tell his Women that the meeting was over.

The Toad decided to do so as he had nothing better to do and just took off.

After doing this, Naruto got up, and then crossed his Arm around Tsume's Waist.

He turned to look at his Beautiful Girlfriend and saw that she was grinning. So he decided to compliment her.

"Have I ever told you how beautifully you are Tsume-Hime?" He asked her.

"Only every day since we got together" she said with a smile.

Naruto looked around, saw that nobody was near them, and so with a grin, he moved his Hand down from Tsume ms Waist till it was right behind her luscious Ass, to which he proceeded to then give it a firm grip.

Tsume caught on to Naruto's actions, and just let it happen, this was the Man she loved after all.

After giving Tsume's Ass a firm squeeze for about Fifteen seconds, Naruto let it go then gave it a small smack.

Tsume then turned to the Boy and asked him

"You really just can't keep your hands to yourself can you?"

Naruto then pulled Tsume's Head down by grabbing onto the Collar of her shirt, and then whispered

"How could I when such an amazing Ass is right in front of me, and I know that only I can touch it? It is mine after all, just like you."

"Of course" Tsume replied.

Tsume as well as every other one of Naruto's Harem Girls just loved his possessiveness, it was so cute and also a huge turn on for them.

With all this being said though, the Duo made their way to the Uzumaki Compound in order to meet up with the other Women.

(Half an Hour Later)

Naruto and Tsume finally arrived in the Head Household after Thirty long minutes, which were mainly spent making out whenever they felt like it, even if they were in a populated place.

After arriving, they shut the door and made their way to the kitchen.

After arriving there, Naruto decided to just fix them both some Ramen in order to pass the time.

As he was though, Tsume gained a cocky grin, got up, walked behind Naruto, and then pressed her Back against him.

Naruto blushed at the feeling of Tsume's Large and Soft Orbs brushing against his Back, but tried to fight it off.

However, once Tsume turned Naruto's Head around by grabbing and twisting his Chin, he lost all his strength and stuck his To hue inside the Woman's Throat, before beginning to roughly make out with her.

The Two we're getting rough with their Kiss, both their Tongues were fighting for dominance, as the Two began feeling each other's bodies and tearing the clothes off said bodies until Naruto was shirtless and Tsume had just a bit of her torn up shirt covering her Breasts.

Naruto then proceeded to push Tsume against a wall just so he could deepen the kiss he never broke with her further.

Tsume wrapped her Hands around Naruto's Head and drove said Head deeper, depending their Kiss and allowing for both their Tongues to dance around inside their Mouths.

They were running out of air but just didn't care.

Eventually, Naruto grabbed Tsume by her legs, placed her on top of the Table they were gonna eat in, and once her Back pressed against the Table, both he and her started taking their Pants off, until

"Are we interrupting?" Ino asked as she came through the door.

"Damn it" Tsume said angrily at being caught in a Clam Jam.

"Oh come on Mom, you know that this is unfair" Hana spoke up.

"Yeah, from the look of your clothes" Sakura started.

"As well as how intimate you Two were getting with that kiss of yours" Kurenai let on.

"Everyone knows where you two were heading" Sakura chimed in.

"And sorry but you're not going to" Hinata continued further.

"At least not yet" Anko finished.

Both Naruto and Tsume groaned in disappointment, got up from each of their positions, readjusted their Pants, and then walked up to the Women.

(An Hour Later)

After an Hour of Naruto and his Women all talking with one another, he got received a knock at his door.

He got up and walked up to the door.

After arriving to it, he opens it and saw an Anbu there with a scroll.

"Hokage-Sama wishes to speak with you, and she asked me to give you this for you to read before you head to the Office."

"Okay" Naruto replied before taking the scroll off the Hands of the Anbu and allowing him to vanish via Shunshin.

With the Anbu gone, Naruto opens up the Scroll and read what was in it.

It was an assignment, an assignment in the Third Hokage's Handwriting, which immediately let Naruto know that this was another one of the Mission left behind by the Third Hokage. So he walked back to his Women, told them all that he was gonna go to the Hokage's Office and then headed to the door, and then vanished to the Hokage's Office via Shunshin, like the Anbu.

(Hokage Office)

Naruto arrived outside the Hokage's Office shortly and then knocked.

After hearing Tsunade say

"Come in."

He entered.

"Well you're hear quicker than I expected" she stated.

"So what's with this assignment?" Naruto asked. "I didn't read the Scroll, as soon as I saw that it was in Hiruzen-Sensei's Handwriting, I just came here in an instant."

"The assignment is similar to the first assignment you did as a Genin squad, only this time you are actually fully aware of it."

"Is it like Gato?"

"Yep, a Village has been overthrown by a certain someone, and well, they need some help."

"Are these guys strong? Because if they're not, then I could just do this alone, it'll be faster that way and nobody is gonna have to waste their time doing something that they didn't need to."

Tsunade just let out a breath she didn't know she was holding and explained that

"This land was taken over by Orochimaru and his Men. Whether or not they have the Curse Seal, I don't know, but considering this is Orochimaru we're talking about, I would gather a Team together, just in case."

"Gotcha" Naruto responded. "Anything else I should know?"

"Yes actually, while you're doing this Mission, would you mind reporting to me what you managed to learn about? What I mean by that is could you interrogate or do something on some of those men that you fight in order to gain knowledge about Orochimaru and what he or his men are doing?"

"Yeah, I got it" Naruto said before walking out of the Office.

After Naruto left the Office, Tsunade kicked back in her Chair, looked up at her ceiling, and thought

'You really have raised and trained a fine young man Sensei. He's got Heart, and Strength, and I still see even more potential in him.'

After putting this thought to rest though, she relaxed as she was sitting down in her chair.

'I have a good feeling about this.'

(With Naruto)

Naruto left the Tower and was about to go gather Team Seven for the mission, till he stopped, sat on a Bench, and did some thinking.

'Sasuke wouldn't be safe, as they would probably try to abduct him at any cost, and plus he's probably Training really hard right now, so I guess not him. I would say yes to Sakura-Chan, but I feel I would need someone who's good at extracting information, and that would be Anko-Chan. She's the head of the Interrogation and Torture Department, and she's also really strong, so she could definitely defend herself should she need to, so yeah, Anko-Chan definitely. Next, Neji, he is definitely strong enough to deal with Curse Seal Fighters if it came down to it as he has before. Lastly, the obvious one, Kakashi-Sensei' Naruto inwardly deducted. "Better go get them."

And so Naruto went off to go gather the team he had in mind.

(One Hour Later)

Naruto was now at the gates of Konoha waiting for his Team to arrive and after just a bit more time passed, they did... Well Neji and Anko at least.

"Where's Kakashi?" Anko asked.

"Oh, he should be here right about" Naruto started.

"I'm here" Kakashi said outta nowhere.

"Tah!" Anko and Neji shouted in startlement.

"Now" Naruto said before turning to Kakashi.

"Did those Two just arrive?" Kakashi asked.

"Yep, and you're right on time" Naruto answered. 'I knew asking him first and then waiting for almost an Hour before telling the other Two would work again.'

"Well okay, now that we're here, why don't you explain the mission to us?" Kakashi asked.

Naruto nodded, did just that, and once he finished, they all left through the Gates to start the Mission they were given.

(With The Uchihas)

As Naruto and his Team were starting their journey to get to the Overtaken Village, Itachi and Sasuke were both in the Backyard of the Uchiha Compound, Training.

"Alright, hit me" Itachi told Sasuke as he put an Arm behind his Back.

"Again with the Arm behind your Back Onii?" Sasuke's asked his Older Brother.

"Not even Naruto could beat me like this, so hit me with everything you've got Otouto" Itachi said before getting ready.

Sasuke nodded and charged at Itachi.

Itachi got ready to spar by suppressing his Power to about Twenty Percent, and then sparring with his Little Brother.

Sasuke went for a Right Hook, but Itachi just caught it with his Free Hand, and then flipped Sasuke onto his Back.

"Toh!" Sasuke groaned as his Back slammed against the ground.

"Again" Itachi said.

Sasuke began struggling back up to his feet and as he was he said

"Okay, Onii."

However, Izumi, who was seeing this whole thing as it unfolded, told Itachi

"Itachi-Kun, maybe you should tone it down a little bit, he is just a Kid after all."

Itachi just looked at Izumi and told her

"He's the one that asked for it."

Izumi then looked at Sasuke for confirmation, and he indeed did confirm it by saying

"Yeah, I told Onii-Chan to kick my Training up a bit."

"By how much?" Izumi asked.

"Ten Percent" Sasuke replied.

"Why?" Izumi asked, now worried as to why the Little Boy she saw like a Brother would put himself under so much pain.

"To get Stronger Faster of course" Sasuke replied.

"I don't mean that, I mean what is it that is making you so desperate to get Stronger?" Izumi asked.

Sasuke simply chuckled and then began explaining.

"You see, at first, I trained really hard in hopes of killing Itachi and avenging the Clan." Sasuke started as he finally got up to his Feet. "That was before I found out his reason though, and now all I wanna do is grow stronger, but for a different reason."

"And what is that?" Izumi questioned.

"I'm through with being saved by Naruto" Sasuke stated. "Every single time that I'm ever in danger, he's the one that saves me, and I'd like to change that. He's my Best Friend after all, we should both be protecting each other, but no, instead he's always the one saving me, like he did twice against Orochimaru, against Haku, and more."

"Oh, so this is all because you wanna be able to protect Naruto as well as he protects you?" Izumi asked. "He's the reason why you're training so hard?"

"Yeah, which is why I'm trying my hardest to get stronger faster, I can't depend on him saving me for the rest of my life can I?" Sasuke asked.

"I guess not" Izumi replied with a smile. "Alright, I guess I understand, but still, go easy on him Itachi-Kun."

"I am, in case you haven't been listening, I'm only using Twenty Percent of my Power, with an Arm behind my Back" Itachi said humorously.

All Three Uchiha began laughing together before Izumi left and the Two Uchiha Brothers continued Training for Hours.

(Three Hours Later)

Sasuke was getting exhausted after Three Hours of Training with Itachi, and Itachi saw this, so he stopped it.

"Alright, that's enough for Today Otouto" he told his Little Brother.

"B-but" Sasuke gasped out.

"Sasuke, look at yourself, you're having trouble just standing on your own Two Feet. I understand that you wanna get stronger for the sake of your friends, but you're not gonna get anywhere if you die from pushing yourself too hard" Itachi explained.

After finally catching his breath, Sasuke replied

"I guess you're right Onii."

"Good, now go cool off."

"How?"

"Go for a walk, rest, or do something to keep you at bay."

"Okay."

And with that being said Sasuke left the Household, then the Compound, and proceeded to walk through the streets.

(Ten Minutes Later)

Sasuke was just minding his own business, walking through Konoha, looking for something to kill time.

'What is there to do?' He inwardly asked himself.

Bump*

"Oh, I'm so sorry" Sasuke immediately apologized to whoever he bumped into.

"Oh no, it was my fault" the person replied as she turned around to look Sasuke in the Eyes. "Oh, it's you again."

"Again?" Sasuke said, confused. "Have we met before?"

"Yeah, because this isn't the first time we've bumped into each other" she replied.

Sasuke then began thinking and after a few seconds, remembered.

"Oh, it's you, Sawashu Aburame, isn't it?" Sasuke asked.

"Took you long enough" she replied.

"Well how's the Academy?"

"I'm done with it, I passed"

"Oh is that so?"

"Yeah."

Sasuke took to realize that Sawashu was speaking to him as if he wasn't anything special, or more specifically, as if he was just some regular guy, so he smirked and asked her

"So wanna hang out really quick?"

Sawashu just shrugged her shoulders and said

"Sure, I don't really have anything better to do."

And so Sasuke walked off with Sawashu following behind.

"I think you and I are gonna be great friends" Sasuke genuinely told Sawashu as they walked off together.

(The Next Day, With Naruto)

Naruto was just waking up in the Tent that he spent the night sleeping in.

Sunshine had appeared, so he exited his Tent, and stretched himself awake.

He looked around and noticed that the others were still in their Tents, likely still sleeping, so he was going to go get some more rest in. That was before he heard many zippers unzip and saw Two of the openings of the Three Tents open up.

"Rise and shine Naruto-Kun" Anko said with a stretch.

"Rise and shine Anko-Chan" Naruto replied before realizing that the only one still asleep was Kakashi.

"How long do you think it'll take Kakashi-Sensei to get up Naruto?" Neji asked.

"I really don't know Neji, could be a minute, an hour, or many" Naruto answered.

"I just needed a few seconds" Kakashi said as he appeared behind Naruto.

"Of course you did" Naruto said with a sigh before they all began to repack their bags in order to continue heading out.

(Ten Minutes Later)

As they were walking to their destination, Naruto and Neji conversed a bit, as they never really had before.

"So Neji, how's life like in the Hyuga Clan?" Naruto asked.

"It's alright, but could be better, you know with the whole Caged Bird Seal" Neji answered.

"Well don't worry Neji, because when I'm Hokage, I'll get rid of that cursed seal for good" Naruto claimed.

This immediately brought a smile to Neji's Face, he was glad that Naruto was such a good guy that only wanted to help out his Friends as best as he could. Naruto was the one who talked some sense into Neji years ago, and quite frankly, he needed it.

Neji always saw being born into the Hyuga Clan as a curse and that it was his destiny to just continue to suffer because of the Clan, but through every last defeat he suffered at the hands of Naruto, Naruto drilled it into Neji's Mind that it wasn't his way to cave in to destiny and that Neji shouldn't allow such a stupid thing to keep him from being who he wants to be, not who he thinks he needs to be, or as Neji would've put it, what he was destined to be.

Neji had to learn the hard way, that when Naruto says he'd do something, he does it no matter what. He was glad that such a Ninja existed and even more that said Ninja was able to talk some sense into him before it was too late.

"Well I'll be counting on you then" Neji replied.

Naruto simply smiled and was about to continue on, until Anko hugged him from behind and asked him

"So you're serious about being Hokage, aren't you Naruto-Kun?"

Naruto simply turned his Neck around to look at one of his girlfriends and said

"Of course Anko-Chan" with a smile. "Is there a problem?"

Anko simply kissed her Boyfriend quickly on the lips and then told him

"No, no problems at all. I just always thought that it was something you only said in the heat of moment numerous times, but now that I realize you're absolutely serious about it, I'll support you the whole way."

Naruto simply smiled at his girlfriend, told her

"Thanks Anko-Hime" before leaning up and kissing her passionately in the lips.

Once the Kiss broke, Anko said

"Not a problem Naru-Koi" with a wink at the end.

Neji and Kakashi were both walking as Naruto and Ino stopped in order to show their affection for one another out in the open, and that's when Neji asked Kakashi

"Those Two are insane for each other aren't they?"

To which Kakashi just said

"Well not just those Two, you're forgetting that he has more than one woman due to the CRA."

"Right, and one of them so happens to be Lady Hinata" Neji replied.

"How do you feel about that Neji-Kun?" Kakashi asked as the Two continued walking off whilst the couple behind them continued showing their love for one another.

"Lady Hinata told me about her feelings for Naruto from the start and to be honest, when she first told me about then, I wasn't too happy. Because that was the guy who repeatedly kept beating me in every single sparring session we had, so it was more just me being irritated at the fact that the one guy I couldn't beat has some how stolen my Cousin's Heart. Obviously though, after he knocked me down a peg or Two, I snapped out of it, and realized that there was really no better man than him that I could trust with Lady Hinata" Neji explained.

"Okay, I understand" Kakashi replied before turning around and seeing that Naruto and Anko were now many meters away and were too busy Kissing passionately in order to pay attention to what was going on. "Are you Two coming along!?"

Naruto and Anko didn't hear anything, as the Kiss they were sharing was too good for them to be distracted by any kind of sound.

Neji then sighed, got into his Stance, and shouted

"Jūken!" Before striking Naruto in the Shoulder, breaking the Kiss he had with Ino and also sending jolts of pain to Naruto's Body.

"Oww!" Naruto shouted in pain while clutching his Left Shoulder. "What the hell!?"

"Yeah, what's up with you Neji?" Anko angrily asked.

"We're in the middle of GETTING to our Mission, but you Two are too busy making out to realize it!" Neji let them know.

The Two then snapped out of it after realizing that Neji was right.

Naruto quickly gained control over his Arm again and then apologized.

"You're right Neji and I'm sorry" he apologized.

"Yeah, me too" Anko added.

"It's okay, just don't let it get to you again, or at least not till we're done with the Mission" Neji replied.

"Gotcha" Naruto and Anko said in unison.

After this was said, Naruto looked at the Map, and told them all

"We're going the wrong way."

Everyone then facepalmed and follows Naruto to their actual destination.

(Hours Later)

After a couple of Hours of following the right directions this time, Naruto and co all arrived at their destination.

They read the sign at the gate of the Village which read

-Land of Orange, Proceed with Caution-

And then passed through the gates.

After entering the Village they looked around and didn't really see anything noticeably different from this Village and others.

People were causally passing through the streets and sidewalks, talking, and just having fun all together.

It didn't seem like anything weird was up, but then, at the same time, they all realized the weirdest thing that happened to them before even entering the Village.

'There weren't any guards!' They all inwardly yelled with wide eyes.

They then shook off the momentary shock, turned to each other, and said

"We should find a Hotel to stay at" in unison, before doing just that.

(Thirty Minutes Later)

The Squad of Four all made it to a Hotel in plenty of time and then booked Two rooms for Two people to share each.

The thing that caught Neji and Kakashi off guard though, was when Naruto and Anko suggested that they stay with either of those Two. It led to Naruto staying with Neji and Anko staying with Kakashi, and currently, Naruto and Neji were both sitting down on the Couch, just thinking about what -no guards by the gate-could mean.

"Damn, what could it mean?" Naruto asked both himself and Neji as he started jotting down whatever he thought it could mean in a Notepad.

Neji however, was still too confused in the fact that Naruto chose to bunk with him instead of his One of his Girlfriends.

He knew that it was bound to be because of getting distracted, but it still caught him and Kakashi off guard since they didn't seem to care when they were walking to their destination.

He decided not to ask the question though, as he already knew the answer, it's just the fact that they actually chose to separate instead of Kakashi or him suggesting it that got to him.

"Neji, any ideas?" Naruto asked the Hyuga after turning his Head to look at him.

"Huh?" Neji asked after shaking his head.

"Do you have any idea on what there not being any guards by the gates could mean?" Naruto repeated.

"Oh, well before we even think of how to answer that question, I suggest we find out if this is even a place where Ninja are made" Neji replied.

"Oh, I didn't think about that" Naruto responded. "Go ahead."

And so Neji made a single Handsign and called

"Byakugan!" Making his Eye Veins pop out, but also allowing for him to see way past normal limitations.

Eventually, after about Ten Minutes, Neji searched through every last section of the Village, but couldn't see a single Ninja, or a Man of Orochimaru. So he made the same Handsign and released the Jutsu.

"Well?" Naruto asked.

"Alright, I've searched every last section of the Village and I can confirm that no, this is not a place where Ninjas are made" Neji answered. "That aside, I also noticed that there also weren't any of Orochimaru's Men here, as I couldn't detect them."

That just confused Naruto completely, but then he decided

"I guess they must've temporarily left and haven't returned yet."

"I guess" Neji said back.

"Well even realizing that, we still don't have any clues as to what they have been doing to this place, as it looks completely peaceful, as if nothing bad ever has or ever could happen" Naruto made clear.

"That's true."

"So now the question remains, what are they doing?"

The Two then put their thinking caps on and really started thinking of what this could all mean.

Why weren't Orochimaru's Men in the Village, why were the Villagers so happy, and why did it seem like nothing bad was happening.

After many Minutes of thinking, Neji asked Naruto

"Are you sure were in the right Village?"

Naruto assured him that they were and even whipped out the coordinates as well as the map that led to their destination.

Neji grabbed the Map, and confirmed that indeed they were in the right Village, which further confused them.

"You know what, why don't we just ask Kakashi-Sensei what he thinks about this?" Naruto recommended. "He's the smartest one out of all of us, so if anybody should have an answer, it's him."

Neji nodded and then both Boys made their way to across the Hall where Ino and Kakashi awaited.

(Minutes Earlier)

Kakashi and Anko were both thinking of anything and everything that happened as they were making their way to the Village.

"Nope, I don't recall anything that happened during our journey to here that could benefit us Kakashi" Anko told Kakashi.

"Me neither" Kakashi replied.

Kakashi then whipped out his favorite Book and started reading it.

"Kakashi, would it kill you to put the book down and focus on the Mission for now?" Anko asked.

"And would it kill you to stop sticking your Tongue down your Boyfriend's Throat every chance you get?" Kakashi asked back while turning a page.

Anko blushed after realizing that she lost that argument, but then sighed and said

"Fair enough."

And so Anko continued pondering what the Team could do, whilst Kakashi just continued to read from his book. That was until they heard a knock at their door.

Anko decided to get up and answer it, as Kakashi was too distracted by his book to get it.

Once she opened it, she saw Naruto and Neji then asked them both

"Whats wrong you Two?"

Naruto then asked Anko

"Where is Kakashi-Sensei?"

Anko just pointed behind her at the chair and said

"He's right there."

And so Naruto and Neji walked up to Kakashi and shouted

"Kakashi-Sensei!" In unison in order to break his focus that was currently on the Adult Novel.

Kakashi flinched and dropped out of his chair after hearing these Two. He then got up and hastily asked them both

"What is it?"

"We need to tell you something, something that we can't figure out and the we figured only you could help us with" Neji began.

"Okay, explain it to me" Kakashi replied.

"So pretty much, I used my Byakugan to do search through the entire Village to see if there were any Shinobi at all in here, but there weren't , I even checked again to see if there were any Cursed Seal Warriors. But nothing came up. And to make matters more confusing, we checked and yes, we are One Hundred Percent in our destined Village" Neji explained entirely. "Do you have any ideas as to what this could mean?"

Kakashi then started rubbing his Chin and after a few Minutes came up with an answer.

"I think I have an idea of what this all could mean or imply" he said.

"What is it?" Naruto asked.

"Maybe Orochimaru's Men are here, and maybe they know that we're here, or were at least expecting for someone to come, and so they hid their Chakra Signatures through Seals and are trying to catch us off guard" Kakashi suggested. "This would explain a lot."

"Yeah, it would" Naruto agreed.

"It would explain why there weren't any guard by gate, because then anyone who came through would see the Cursed Seal" Ino chimed in as she walked up to the others.

"It would explain why everyone seems so happy and in control, because they don't know that their Leader is Orochimaru" Neji said further.

"But now it's a matter of what are we gonna do, even if I'm right" Kakashi made clear.

"Well I say we see if Kakashi-Sensei is right by going through the Village and searching for anyone with the Curse Seal" Naruto suggested.

Everyone nodded in agreement and were about to split up to cover more ground, but before they did, Naruto asked them all to

"Hold on for now."

"For what?" Kakashi and Neji asked him after turning around to face him.

"I have a bad feeling about this, so take this" Naruto said before reaching into his pockets and picking out Three small Boxes.

Anko, Kakashi, and Neji open up the boxes and see what looks like a Red Chakra Pill that the Akimichi would use. This of course frightens them and they turn to look at Naruto, but Naruto assured them

"It's not the Chili Pepper Chakra Pill from the Akimichi, I promise."

They were all relieved to hear that, but then they wonder, just what was it, but before they could ask, Naruto told them all

"Don't ask me what it is, just promise me that if it comes down to it, you'll use it."

They all nodded, and afterwards, they all split up to cover more ground.

They of course made sure to keep their guards up, on the very large chance that they were attacked by some of Orochimaru's Men.

(With The Uchihas)

Itachi was just finishing making some food for himself, Izumi, and Sasuke.

After finishing up, he walked over to the table they were sitting in and placed the plates down, before sitting down himself.

Once they were all seated, they just dug right in and started enjoying the food that Itachi prepared for them.

A couple Minutes after they began, Itachi swallowed some food and asked Sasuke

"So, what did you do to kill time Yesterday Sasuke?" Itachi asked his Little Brother:

"Just walked around the Village for a bit" Sasuke lied.

"Is that so?" Itachi asked.

"What's wrong Itachi-Kun?" Izumi asked.

"I can tel that he's lying" Itachi said bluntly.

"W-what do you mean?" Sasuke stammered with a blush.

"And that just confirmed it" Itachi replied before putting Form down.

"Damn it, how did you know?" Sasuke asked.

"The crack in your voice after telling us that you were just walking around and also the way that you turned away from me and Izumi after you finished yo ur sentence" Itachi answered. "And judging by that blush, it's about a girl isn't it?"

"Ooh" Izumi teased. "Is that true Otouto?"

Sasuke blushed even harder after being asked that question by the Girl who he now saw as an Older Sister, but then, with his Head down, said

"Yeah."

"Oooh, tell me all about it Otouto-Kun!" Izumi shouted in enthusiasm.

And so Sasuke did just that.

"Well... Her name is Sawashu Aburame, she's a Year Younger, and she's different from other girls" Sasuke started explaining.

"What do you mean by that?" Izumi curiously asked.

"Well she isn't a Fangirl. I remember when I first entered the Academy and had numerous Fangirls and it bugged me because I really didn't like all the attention, especially from Girls that appeared so desperate, but the Girl I met, isn't like that at all. She treats me as if I was just some other Kid, nothing more and nothing less" Sasuke explained further.

"Ahh" Izumi trailed before turning to Itachi. "Remind you of anything Itachi-Kun?"

"Onii-Chan?" Sasuke said, confused.

"It was the same thing with me and Izumi. When I first went to the Academy I too had numerous Fangirls, but she wasn't one of them, she loved me for who I was, not what I had accomplished, and slowly but surely, I fell in love with her too" Itachi casually explained.

"Oh, how come you guys never told me that?" Sasuke asked.

"Never came to us till now" Itachi answered.

"So tell me more" Izumi said as her curiosity piked up.

And Sasuke did.

(Thirty Minutes Later)

Itachi, Izumi, and Sasuke finished their Food and Itachi was currently washing the dishes as the Two continued talking about Sawashu.

"There we go" Itachi said as he finished the last plate before walking to his Living Room and then telling Sasuke

"You coming outside Otouto?"

"Huh?" Sasuke asked.

"To Train" Itachi replied.

"Oh right, well talk to you later Onee-Chan" Sasuke said before getting off the Couch and following his Brother outside, to the Backyard, to continue on with their Training.

(Ten Minutes Later)

"Again" Itachi commanded.

"Okay" Sasuke said before making the same Hand Signs and then calling "Goukakyuu No Jutsu!"

Which sent a large fireball at Itachi.

Itachi took the fireball head on, but wasn't in the least bit fazed by it.

"Again" he repeated.

And so Sasuke did.

"Goukakyuu No Jutsu!" He called before sending another large fireball at Itachi.

The fireball hit, but again, didn't effect Itachi in the least bit.

After this fireball, Itachi said

"Alright, let's move on to another Jutsu."

"Wait, would you let me try one more time Onii?" Sasuke asked.

"Sure, go ahead" Itachi replied before staying still.

"Okay" Sasuke said before making the same Hand Signs, and then calling "Goukakyuu No Jutsu!"

And sending one more fireball at his Older Brother, it hit him again, but this time, it actually grazed him.

Upon seeing this, Sasuke lifted his Arms up to the air and shouted

"Finally, I grazed you!"

"Congrats, you finally managed enough power to actually graze me" Itachi genuinely let his Brother know. "But now let's move on to some different Jutsus."

"Alright, what did you have in mind Onii-Chan?" Sasuke asked.

"Try this" Itachi said before making a few hand signs and then calling "Suiton: Suiryūdan No Jutsu!"

And sending a large Dragon made of Water up to the sky.

After a few seconds, Itachi made different Hand Signs and then called

"Katon: Hōsenka No Jutsu!"

Sending many small fireballs at the air and having them all crash into the Shark, effectively shutting down both Jutsu.

After doing this, Itachi turned to Sasuke and asked him

"Did you catch the Hand Signs?"

"No" he replied. "You were going too fast."

"Want me to go slower?" Itachi asked.

"Please" Sasuke responded.

And so he did.

First Itachi made a single Hand Signs, called

"Kage Bunshin No Jutsu" and then summoned a Shadow Clone of himself into the field.

Then Itachi showed Sasuke every single one of the Hand Signs for the Water Shark, before aiming said Jutsu at the Clone and then releasing the Jutsu at the Clone.

The Jutsu hit the clone dead-on, but thanks to how much chakra Itachi gave it, it stayed alive.

Then Itachi slowly made the Hand Signs for the Phoenix Jutsu, before releasing the Jutsu at the same Clone, but this time, he let it disperse.

"Alright, now did you see them?" Itachi asked.

"Oh yeah, totally" Sasuke said confidently.

"Then do it" Itachi said.

"Alright Onii" Sasuke replied before making the proper Hand Signs, aiming at Itachi, and then calling "Suiton: Suiryūdan No Jutsu!"

The Shark came, but it was nowhere near as big as Itachi's Shark and while it did hit Itachi, it didn't even graze him.

"Try again" Itachi told him.

"Right" Sasuke replied.

And so Sasuke tried time and time again, trying to at least graze Itachi, but not even coming close to succeeding.

After about Twenty-Five attempts, Sasuke was running low on Chakra, so he told his Elder Brother and he responded with

"Then come here" and so he did.

After Sasuke got close enough, Itachi put a Hand on his Shoulder and then transferred some of his Chakra to Sasuke. After doing so, he said

"Now show me the Phoenix."

And so Sasuke did just that, but like all of his other attempts, he didn't so much as graze Itachi.

After another Twenty-Five unsuccessful attempts, Sasuke said

"Damn it, I'm not strong enough yet" and then started gasping for air.

Itachi then said

"What did you expect my Brother? You knew it was t gonna be easy."

"Yeah" Sasuke replied.

"So rest up for now and we'll continue later" Itachi instructed and Sasuke followed through.

It was gonna be a while before Sasuke could catch up to Naruto, even more his Brother, but he was determined to do it.

'I have to do it, for my friends' Sasuke thought before resting in the Couch in the Living Room.

Itachi then walked into the Lviing Room, sighed, and said

"That's not what I meant, but okay."

And then he walked up to the Couch, put a blanket around him, gave him a hug, and then walked off outside to continue training himself.

(With the Harem Girls)

Hinata, Sakura, and Ino were currently discussing their first times with Naruto.

"And then he came inside while we were still in the forrest and filled me up " Hinata finished her story.

"That's nothing" Sakura started before explaining her first time with Naruto. "And after some hard hair pulls, he came inside me as well."

"Oh come on, he took me in the hospital" Ino started explaining her first time with Naruto. "And then he came, multiple times inside of me."

They were all debating on who had the best first time with Naruto, till someone butted into their conversation.

"If anyone had a good time, it was me" Hana chimed in before explaining her first time. "And after he came inside me, he started embracing me tightly."

These Four continued arguing over who had the best first time with Naruto, till Sakura said

"Well guess what, even on the very off chance that I my time with him wasn't the best, I sure as hell gave him the best out of any of you."

This lit up a fire in all the girls' eyes.

"I was his first time!" Hinata shouted.

"I lasted the longest!" Ino yelled.

"I'm Older than all of you!" Hana raised her voice.

"I knew how to work my Hips!" Sakura loudly argued.

They then all began groaning angrily at one another due to the argument they were having. But then, after a while, their arguing died down and they calmed down after a while.

They all then smiled at one another and that's when Ino said

"At least we're fighting over the right Boy."

"Agreed" Hinata, Sakura, and Hana agreed.

They then all started giggling and talking about to die favorite things of being able to be so cool with one another.

Hinata talked about how she loved being around the people she cared about and how she absolutely adored being in a relationship with the Man she loved most in the world.

The others girls all agreed whole heartedly with every word that came outta Hinata's Mouth and took a deep breath, exhaled, and then embraced with one another tightly.

"I love you girls" Hinata said as she basked in their warmth.

"Me too" they all said in unison.

They then separated and went off to separate rooms to cool off.

(With Tsume)

Tsume was currently inside her Compound, specifically in her Backyard, doing some Training with Kuromaru.

"Gatsuuga!" She shouted as the Two crashed into the ground in what looked Ike Two separate vortexes.

After this, they both made Two large craters appear on the ground and when they morphed back, they stared at those Two Craters till Kuromaru asked Tsume

"Why are you so pumped in your Training all of a sudden?"

Tsume turned to look at the dog and then asked him

"What do you mean?"

"I mean, you've never been this hard on yourself when it came to Training, so why are you suddenly so pumped into it?"

"Oh that?"

"Is it because of Naruto?"

"Is it that obvious?"

They both then laughed a bit till finally, Tsume sat down and then Kuromaru asked her

"So why exactly are you Training so hard? What about him is making you Train so hard?"

Tsume then let out a deep breath and explained that

"What's getting me to train so hard is that he's willing to fight my battles for me, and I wanna fight his battle for him as well, should he ever need me."

"Well I mean considering the fact that he currently has the power to tap into Two Tails of the Nine Tail Fox, I would say you have your work cut out for you."

"I know" Tsume replied. "Which is why I'm trying so hard to attain those levels of power as quickly as possible."

Kuromaru then let out a sigh and then asked his Partner

"That Kid has really impacted all your lives hasn't he?"

Tsume then turned to the Dog and told him

"Not Kid, a Man, way more of a Man than I can ever see anyone else being. Chen pales in comparison and that includes everyone and anyone else."

Kuromaru then asked her

"Forget Training, you've never been this into a Man before, have you even had your first fight yet?"

"Nope" she replied. "I know it's bound to happen some time in the future, especially since we can't age, but I'm enjoying the time we aren't fighting, for now."

"Is he the one?" Kuromaru asked.

"One Million Percent" Tsume replied.

"Do you hope to marry him one day?"

"Of course.

"Do you love him?"

"Are you kidding me?! Of course I do!"

The Two then continued talking about this for a while before Naruto left their minds and the Two got back to Training.

The sounds of Punching, Kicking, Shouting, and more than chord throughout the entire Backyard of the Head Inuzuka Household.

With everything that was happening by, it was pretty needless to say that Naruto was making a huge impact on all the Women, even the ones that were already strong.

Sakura, Hinata, and Ino who were all weak at the start, had now reached levels of strength that they never could've without Naruto's influence.

Tsume, Hana, Anko, and Kurenai had all reached levels of power that transcended their original Strength, and they too had Naruto to thank for that.

Naruto was the best thing to ever happen to them and quite frankly, it reached the point to where they all just couldn't live anymore without him.

And it was the exact same thing for Naruto. Every single thing that those Girls and Women felt, he felt even more.

Naruto, who was already plenty strong, due to his Training from Hiruzen, trained even harder after gaining these many Girlfriends. This was due to the fact that has so many women he wants to and will protect with the his life. He loved them all from the bottom of his heart, so much so that he just like them, couldn't live anymore if any of them were taken away from him.

(With Naruto)

Naruto was currently patrolling the North Side of the Village all on his own, trying to be as sneaky as possible, in case Kakashi is right, and they really have been spotted by some of Orochimaru's Men.

'Where could they be?' He wondered as he continued vanishing through speed from alley to alley.

He truly had no idea what was going on or what was going to happen, the team split up for that exact reason. Making sure not to lose their guard for a counter strike from the bad guys, buh still couldn't spot any of them anywhere they went.

None of them gave up hope though and continued searching for those bastards, trying to find them before the opposite happened.

(With Neji)

Neji was patrolling the East Side of the Village alone, and of course, was trying to be as sneaky as possible. He had his Byakugan active the entire time and was not letting it release at any second.

'I just don't get it, even though I'm only using my Byakugan to search the West Side this time instead of the entire Village, I still can't pick up a single Chakra Signature' Neji inwardly complained. 'The only conclusion I could come to is that they aren't here in that case, but if Kakashi-Sensei is right and they are disguising themselves then what else can I do?'

Neji ultimately stopped moving from alley to alley, in order to just clear his Mind.

'Okay, don't let the stress pile on you, stay strong, and think about what you can do in order to find these people, should they come' Neji was thinking as he cleared his Mind. 'Got it.'

After having successfully cleared his Mind and shaken off his stress, Neji vanished and this time, without having his Byakugan active, so as to not drain him of any more Chakra that he has.

(With Kakashi)

Kakashi was looking through the South Side of the Village, he caused a Genjutsu on himself with his Sharingan, hiding him from view and allowing him to search every inch of the place at top speed without fear of being discovered.

As he was speeding past the part of the Village that he was looking after, he had many thoughts in his mind, but one of them was

'Where do these guys come from, and how long till they come out and fight us?'

It stressed him out, just as much as it stressed the other Three out in the fact that it was taking so long for those Curse Seal Fighters to come out.

He really just wanted to find out what these guys were up to so that he could get this Mission over with, like everyone else.

(With Anko)

Anko was taking her approach in searching the West Side of the Village a bit differently from her Comrades.

Instead of speeding through the Village to find those Curse Seal Soldiers, she was sitting in a grassy area, just waiting for the Curse Mark Warriors to come out.

'I doubt that speeding through the entire Village isn't what Orochimaru wants us to do, so I'm gonna stay here and wait for them to attack. I have my guard up and am keeping calm the entire time, ready for anything to happen' she inwardly explained to herself as she continued to wait for her Old Master to send in some of his rookies.

They were all handling the situation a different way, but little did they all know, that certain Cursed Seal Warriors of Orochimaru spotted each of them alone and had been tailing them ever since they left the hotel.

(With Kabuto)

Kabuto was in his lab when outta nowhere, One of Orochimaru's Cursed Seal Warriors came up behind him and told him

"Kabuto-San, we have just revised word from some Soldiers in The Land of Orange that Naruto Uzumaki, Neji Hyuga, Kakashi Hatake, and Anko Mitarashi were all spotted in different sections of the Village.

"Alright, what rank are these guys?" Kabuto asked.

"The Curse Seal Warriors are all A Ranks."

"How many are there?"

"Forty."

"Perfect, have Ten of them each all attack one of each of those Four alone." Kabuto ordered as he continued doing his thing in the Lab.

"Right" the Soldier replied before leaving to do as he was ordered.

"Perfect, they've fallen right into my trap. They split up and now we can pick them off one by one' Kabuto pondered as he put the finishing touches on the neutralizer to the pain that Chen is gonna be experiencing throughout The Whole Body Swapping Procedure.

(With Naruto)

After a little bit more speeding through the Village, Naruto found himself halting after coming in contact with an Old Lady who seemed to be in severe Leg pain.

Naruto stopped after seeing this Old Lady and asked her

"Do you need some help ma'a" but he stopped after realizing that this was just a Genjutsu. 'Oh no, I better get out before... Shit.'

At that moment, Ten people, all with Curse Seals on their Neck, circled Naruto.

"Well" Naruto said plainly before lifting his sleeves. "Bring it on!"

And then those Soldiers charged forward.

Naruto dodged a Punch from one of the Cursed Seal Soldiers, fired back with a Knee to that same Cursed Seal Soldier's Stomach, and then backflipped away as a means of retreat.

Another Soldier went for a Front Kick, but Naruto caught it and kicked the other leg that was keeping the man standing, forcing him to his Knees, and allowing Naruto to Knee him in the Face.

After doing this though, One of the other Soldiers landed a Punch to the Back of Naruto, which broke the hold he still had on that one soldier, and pushed him forward a bit.

Once he took a couple steps forward from the power of the Punch, he turned around but then got Kick across the Face by another one of the Curse Seals, and that caused him to fall to the ground, on his Back.

Once he was down, every single one of the Curse Seals started Kicking him as hard as they could, cracking some ribs here and there, only for Naruto to Airflare and Kick away every last one of those guys, and then get back up via Kip Up.

'Damn, there's too many of them, and they're all decently strong' Naruto thought seriously, trying to figure out a way around this without tapping into Nine Tails Chakra, as he still didn't wanna go out of control, at least not without Sasuke or Hiruzen there to help him.

The other guys managed to get back up to their feet and charged at Naruto at the same time.

Naruto here're decided to spin as fast as he could with both his Arms extended as far as they could go on both sides.

He was going so fast that it seemed as if he was glitching out of sight, till finally, all Ten Soldiers ran into him and were sent back a long way.

After successfully landing these hits, Naruto halted his spinning and looked at where he was standing at.

'Better do it now' Naruto thought before making his favorite Hand Sign. "Kage Bunshin No Jutsu!"

And then One Hundred other Narutos appeared.

"Charge!" Naruto commanded before all his Clones did as they were ordered.

Ten Clones were each facing off against a Curse Seal Warrior each, hitting them with everything they had, as Naruto looked on, studying how they fought, and also trying to think of a strategy to end the battle even faster.

As the Curse Seal Fighters fought on, they tried their best to get past the Clones to get to the Original, and do as much damage as they could to him. But all they could do at the moment was focus on the clones that were surrounding them, since even the clones were stronger than them, at this point in time.

'I know that I could beat any one of these guys on my own in a One vs One fight, but their teamwork and the sheer numbers are what's making it so damn hard to get past them' Naruto inwardly explained to himself as he watched on. 'But now with that outta the way, what's next? What should I do in order to separate them long enough for me to fight them on my own? My Clones may be stronger than them, which allow them to take a few hits, but there's only so many hits they can take, so I better think of something fast.'

As Naruto continued wondering what to do next, the Curse Seals were finally managing to disperse some of the Clones.

They started off using purely Taijutsu, but then, they all gathered together, made the same Hand Signs, called

"Katon: Ryuuka No Jutsu" and then sent multiple large Fire Dragons at all the rest of the Clones.

The numerous Dragons combined together and created an ultra powerful and massive Fire Dragon that wiped out every last one of the Clones.

Once they all halted threat fire breath, they started gasping for air, and were about to start celebrating their success, but were interrupted by their opponent voice who called

"Katon: Karyuu Endan!" And hit them all with an even more powerful Dragon than the one they created together.

"ARGH!" They all screamed from the pain of getting their Backs burnt to a crisp.

'Thank Kami I thought of that quick enough' Naruto thought before making the same Hand Signs and again called "Katon: Karyuu Endan!"

This Dragon landed on the Curse Seals again, but this time, they dispersed.

'What?' Naruto confusingly thought before looking at all his sides, trying to find someone or something.

Then, they all came out of hiding and from all angles, made different Hand Signs before Two of each of the Ten Soldiers called

"Deido Tama!"

"Katon: Shi!"

"Maruishi Tounyuu!"

"Raiton: Raikou Hitofuki No Jutsu!"

"Futon: Daitoppa!"

All at the same time, Two Mud Balls, multiple Fireballs, Two Large Boulders, Two Lightning Blasts, and Two huge blasts of Wind all came at Naruto from all angles.

Naruto saw this, and as quick as he could, made desperate Hand Signs, called

"Kage Bunshin No Jutsu!" And then using an extra Clone, threw himself high above the ground, forcing the Clone to take every last bit of damage and disperse as a results

This was also allowing him to target all Ten Curse Seals, make familiar Hand Signs, call

"Katon: Karyuu Endan!" And get them all with One Fire Dragon.

This Dragon caused way more damage to them then it did their clones and sent them all crashing down to the ground, inducing the damage dealt to their bodies further.

As soon as the bodies of the Soldiers fell to the ground, it was only a matter of seconds till Naruto himself's Feet touched the ground and he landed with grace. After doing so, he looked around, but saw that all Ten Soldiers were still out on the ground.

So he got ready to end it all. He brought out a Kunai, and after lacing them all with chakra her got ready to stab them all through their Hearts, from their Back, but before he could, he felt an odd amount of power coursing through the dirt.

"What the hell?" He said in confusion as he looked around to try and find the source of this power, but then realized that the Soldiers were activating the first step to their Curse Seal.

Panicking, he went for the stab now, trying to kill them before they erupted with power and killed him, but before he could, he felt someone grab his Wrist and apply pressure.

Naruto then looked down and saw that he was too late. Every single one of the soldiers had activated the First Stage to their Curse Seals and had their Power multiplied as a result.

"Damn" he said with breath before separating his Hand from the grip of that Soldier and walking back.

Once he took enough steps back, he looked forward and saw all those Soldiers standing up on their Feet, cracking their Necks.

"Let's see how elk you do against all of us, Naruto Uzumaki" said all Ten Curse Seal Soldiers in unison, and all with extremely deep voices, before charging at the Jinchuriki.

Naruto got ready, and had both his Arms by his Waist, ready to guard or attack.

(With Kakashi)

Kakashi was in his own problem, you see, Minutes earlier, he was trying to patrol the Village with his Sharingan active when all of a sudden, something clouded his Sharingan's Power and had him clutching the Eye and falling to ground in pain.

When he managed to get over it and get back up though, there were already Ten Curse Seal Soldiers in front of him. So with his Sharingan still out, he got ready for a fight.

Now though, he was dealing with Ten, Stage 1, Curse Seal Soldiers, and was having quite a hard time due to the sheer numbers.

With his Sharingan active, he was able to read and predict every single move that all of them made before they made it, but even with that knowledge, the sheer number made it so difficult.

Why? Because every time he would parry or block a Punch or Kick from One of the Soldiers, the other Nine would sneak up from behind and strike him when he had his guard down and wasn't looking. Or in other words, he would have to take Nine hits after avoiding One.

It was getting exhausting, he was exerting so much Chakra from having his Sharingan out, but was exerting so much more when he tried using Jutsu.

"Suiton: Suikōdan No Ju" Kakashi started but was interrupted by a Punch to the Face, followed by Five Wheel Kicks to the Ribs, and Four Elbows to the Neck.

Kakashi had to stick with Taijutsu right now, or else these guys were just gonna gang up on him whenever he tried using Jutsu.

So he did, but it just ended up being a repeat of what was originally happening, whenever he would Block, Dodge, or Counter a hit, he would get hit Nine times in response.

'Damn, I really didn't wanna use everything I had, but it looks like I'll be in some serious trouble if I don't' Kakashi thought hastily before getting ready.

He was done holding back against these guys and was gonna use all the strength he had, no more restraints, he was gonna give them everything he had.

And so, when one of the Curse Seals came forward with a Punch to the Face, Kakashi ducked down, and Kicked him as hard as he could under the Chin, launching him in the air. At that moment, Kakashi went for another Punch, and then another, and then another till finally, he got that Curse Seal in a Rear Naked Choke, and was now using him as a Human Shield, to avoid further damage and inflict more damage to the Warrior he was holding.

After having the guy sustain more than enough damage, Kakashi snapped the Curse Seal's Neck, killing him instantly.

'Well that takes care of One' Kakashi thought before turning his attention to the other Nine Warriors in front of him.

They all lined up in front of him, all with their Hands out, ready to strike.

Kakashi simply took a deep breath, let it out, and then charged forward to fight the remaining Nine Curse Seals.

(With Neji)

Neji was in his own pickle, as he was staring at Ten Curse Seals all at their Second Level.

You see, as he was traveling with his Byakugan active, he felt numerous Kunai being flung at him. He managed to reflect them all away, and then stared at the source of the Kunai, with his Byakugan, now deactivated, to preserve Chakra.

"Whoever is there, come out and fight me Damn it!" Neji shouted.

After these words left his Mouth, One Curse Seal Soldier came out, and Neji assumed his Position.

When the Soldier charged at him all alone without even stating his Name, Neji assumed that they weren't going to engage in any useless conversation, and just got ready to fight that Curse Seal.

However, right as that Curse Seal got within Two Feet in front of Neji, another Soldier struck Neji from behind, bringing the Hyuga to the ground.

As soon as Neji's Chest hit the floor, he rolled to his Right Side in order to avoid a Stomp from both Men, just to end up seeing Eight more Curse Seals appear in front of him.

After he got back up and fought them off for a while, they ended up binding him to the ground whilst they went into each of their Curse Seal's First Stage.

The binds only held Neji for about Two Seconds before he managed to break your and get back out to his Feet, but once he did, he saw that the Ten Curse Seals he had been fighting, all activated the First Stage to their Curse Seals.

'Damn' he thought before re-engaging in combat with them.

This Battle didn't last too long though, once Neji reactivated his Byakugan, since he was actually a Hyuga and didn't just have the Dojutsu like Kakashi, it didn't take up that much Chakra, and hence he was able to keep it around for a long time, and beat the hell out of all Ten Soldiers with High Difficulty, till everybody's, including Neji's, Back hit the ground.

After deactivating his Byakugan, Neji managed to get up to his Feet first though, and stared at the Downed Bodies of the Soldiers for about Two Seconds before Dark Power enveloped them, and then they all revealed their Second Stage of the Curse Seal, and got back up to their Feet.

'Son of a Bitch' Neji thought in agony before reactivating his Byakugan and getting ready for more.

And now he was here, staring at them all in their Second and Final Stage of the Curse Seal, just waiting for his decently fresh opponents to make a move.

"Here we go!" They all yelled in unison with angry voices.

Neji got ready, took one step forward, called

"Jūken!" And struck one of them as hard as he could in the Chest.

The one he struck get tons of pain but was able to pull through and still Neji back even harder, which launched him far back till his Back crashed against a Wall from one of the many buildings surrounding him.

This was then followed by a repeat assault of all Ten Curse Seals Punching and Kicking Neji, who was now stuck to the Wall he was launched to, and completely defenseless against all of the incoming attacks.

After all Ten Curse Seals each landed One Hundred hits to the now very Bloody Body of Neji, they separated and just admired their handiwork.

They watched as Neji fell to the round motionless, not so much as moving, and got ready to end him once and for all.

They all brought out a Kunai each, drenched it in their Dark Chakra, and then threw it as hard as they could to the Head and Heart of Neji.

Right as they were about to make contact though, they heard a crunch, and then the next thing they know, Neji is right behind them.

"I have no idea what that was, but I feel fantastic!" Neji shouted in a demonic voice before Punching one of the Curse Seals.

This Stage Two Curse Seal Warrior was launched high into the sky, and then crashed down with harsh impact.

"My Power has increased so much that a mere Punch did that much damage?" He asked himself in his demonic voice before turning his attention to the Curse Seal Warriors right in front of him, shaking in fear, and then with a cocky smile, he said "Bring it on."

(With Anko)

Anko, who was now dealing with her own problems concerning the Curse Seals, as they were all tapping into their full Stage Two Power, and hanging up on her, was losing all the strength she had left.

Although she had her guard up and was waiting for the Curse Seals to show up, she really didn't expect them all to show up with the Second Stage of their Curse Seals active.

She fought and fought and fought for the past Hour that the battle with her and the Curse Seals was happening, but was kinda getting her ass kicked for the same reason that Naruto, Kakashi, and Neji were, there was just too many of them.

It was so bad that she was currently hiding, trying her hardest to recuperate so that she could get back to fighting them.

Her Body was bruised and beaten, her clothes were covered in her Blood, and she was losing all her Chakra, faster than she'd have liked. She needed something, and she needed it now, but she didn't know what.

So as she was pressing her Back against one of the now rundown Buildings, she tried thinking of some way to win, or at least get out of her situation and regroup with the others.

'I don't know how much more I can hold out for' Anko thought before going through her pouch to pull out some Kunai, but ended up tapping something else instead. "Huh?"

Without another word, she grabbed whatever it was, and brought it out. She then saw that it was the small box that Naruto gave her.

'Right, Naruto-Kun gave this to me, Kakashi, and Neji' Anko realized before thinking back to what that Boy told her. 'He told me to take this if it ever came down to it, and if I ever needed some help, it was now.'

She then opened her mouth, tossed the Chakra Pill into her Mouth and started crunching it till finally, she swallowed it.

Immediately, she felt a rush of power overwhelm her till finally, she bursted out of that rundown building with sheer strength.

"Whoah?!" All the Curse Seals shouted in alarm before turning to see Anko, who was now covered in a Cloak of Red Chakra, with a Red Chakra Tail, and demonic Red Eyes.

Anko gave out a roar, and then charged forward.

The Curse Seals all tried fighting back, but she was just way too fast for them, and one fully powered Punch from Anko, ended up tearing a hole through the Heart of One of the Curse Seal Warriors.

"One Down" she said smugly before turning her attention to the others.

(With Naruto)

Naruto was having a hard time with his Curse Seal Soldiers.

He still hadn't used a single tail, and was fighting off Ten Stage Two Curse Seal Warriors.

He was doing pretty bad, cuz while he as landing a few hits here and there, they didn't have too much of an effect on them in their Second Stage of the Curse Seals.

As he continued fighting them off though, and continued getting hurt, he could still only worry about the others.

'If I'm dealing with Ten Curse Seal Warriors, then they probably are too' Naruto thought as he continued to fight. 'So I hope those Chakra Pills I gave each of them are enough to help them out.'

One specifically hard Punch to the Face of Naruto sent him down to the ground.

As soon as the entire Flock of Curse Seals saw him on the ground, they tried to end him. So with similar Hand Signs as before they each called

"Deido Tama!"

"Katon: Shi!"

"Maruishi Tounyuu!"

"Raiton: Raikou Hitofuki No Jutsu!"

"Futon: Daitoppa!" At the downed body of Naruto.

Naruto however, still had plenty of Chakra left to fight, and was a let to make really quick Hand Signs, and call

"Katon: Karyuu Endan!" Before again, sending a massive Dragon made of Fire at the Group of Curse Seals.

This time though, instead of Naruto easily and quickly overpowering the team, there was a big struggle between both sides.

Thanks to how much stronger Naruto has gotten because of his Training through the Year, as well as how large his Chakra Reserves are, he was able to match this attack for now, especially since he did wear them out when they were in their base and Stage One Form.

'Thank Kami that going into One of the other stages only replenishes most of your Energy and Chakra and not all your Energy and Chakra' Naruto thought as he continued on with this struggle.

After a while though, the Curse Seals gains the upper hand and won the exchange, blasting. Naruto with Fire, Water, Earth, Wind, and Lightning Jutsu.

After being blasted back hard, Naruto managed to struggle back up to his Feet, then stared down all the Men while taking in deep breaths.

'Not good, my strength, it's fading, my Chakra is fine but my body is taking too much damage' Naruto worriedly thought. 'I don't know how much more damage I can sustain at this rate.'

All the Curse Seals were currently taking deep breaths themselves, because whilst they did manage to win the exchange, they all needed to use almost all their Chakra in order to do it, so they were getting tired.

Both sides were suffering from the opposite problems.

Naruto was taking too much damage, but had more than enough Chakra to keep using his Jutsu.

The Curse Seals however, didn't take nearly enough damage, but had way less than enough Chakra to keep using their Justu.

Now, though, both sides decided to give their all into their Jutsu.

The Curse Seals got ready, because once they used their last Jutsu, they would be out of Chakra completely and would have to fight the rest of the battle with just Taijutsu.

Naruto however, had more than enough Chakra to use more than One Hundred different Jutsu.

So after staring at each other one last time, the Curse Seal charged forward, but Naruto moved to his Right Side as fast as he could.

"Fuuton: Furyuu no Jutsu!" Naruto called as he continued to run, sending a huge Dragon made of Wind at the Curse Seals.

The first Curse Seal to use up the last of their Chakra, made his last Hand Signs and called

"Suiton: Suihou no Jutsu!" Sending a massive Cannonball made of purely Water at Naruto's Dragon.

The Two clashed, but Naruto easily again d the upper hand due to his much more powerful Dragon and struck that Curse Seal down till he was on the ground Mabel to move, and out of his Curse Seal State.

'One down, finally' Naruto thought as he continued fighting on.

"Katon: Karyuu Endan!" Naruto called before blasting a huge Dragon made of Fire at another one of the Curse Seals like a bullet.

"Katon: San!" That same Soldier stopped to call before Naruto's Dragon overpowered the his stream of Fire and brought the man down to his knees.

'Eight to go' Naruto thought with a cocky smile.

(With Kakashi)

Kakashi, who had already taken the Chakra Pill that Naruto gave him after all his foes went to their Final Stage, was now killing every last one of his opponents with Taijutsu.

One threw a Right Hook, but Kakashi stopped it by bringing his Arm out in a Vertical Style, grabbing onto him by his Wrist, and then launched Punch after Punch to the Face of the Curse Seal till he died.

Another tried to Kick him from behind, but Kakashi caught the Kick by turning around, bringing his Right Leg up, opening it, and then bringing it down, catching it between his Shin and Thigh.

After doing this Kakashi Punched that Leg by the Hip as hard as he could, that Leg snapped by did a One Hundred Fifty Degree turn, and then Kakashi killed him by slitting his Throat.

He then got back up his Feet with a spin, caught another Punch from One of the Soldiers, Squeezed the fist as hard as he could, till Blood started seeping out of that Hand, and while this was happening, the other Soldiers tried striking Kakashi, but thanks to his speed, he was able to dodge and evade every last one of their hits until finally, every last tiny bone in the Hand of that Soldier was crushed into pieces, and with One last Punch to the Face, he killed him.

Kakashi then made some quick Hand Signs before calling

"Katon: Goukakyuu No Jutsu!"

And burning every last one of the remaining Soldiers alive.

After having won his battle, Kakashi sat down, and tried catching his breath.

"I hope *Pant* the others are *Pant* doing fine" he said in between pants.

(With Neji)

"Jūken!" Neji shouted before bringing his Hand through the Heart of the last one of his opponents.

"Blah" the Curse Seal puked blood and the fell to the ground, dead.

"That's the last of them" Neji said while clapping his Hands together. "I wonder how the others are doing?"

(With Anko)

Anko had just snapped the last of her Curse Seals' Neck and then wiped all the blood that was on her Clothes off of her.

"Alright, there you go" she said before cracking both sides of her Neck. "Now I should go check up on the others."

She then took off without another word.

(With Naruto)

Naruto had just gotten rid of his Ninth Curse Seal and still had way more than enough Chakra to finish the last one off with multiple Jutsu.

So Naruto looked at the last one and decided to offer the Soldier Mercy.

"Give it up" Naruto started.

The Curse Seal just flinched after hearing this and let out a

"Huh?"

"You can't beat me in your condition and you know it" Naruto continued. "You're tired, your Chakra is gone, and all your left with is to fight with your own Hands and Feet. I on the other hand, am wounded but still have more than enough Chakra to finish you off here."

The Curse Seal just groaned in anger and then tried to attack Naruto again, with a Punch

His Punch however didn't so much as faze the Boy.

"Is that all you've got?" Naruto taunted. "Did you forget that the second you ran out of Chakra, your Curse Seal State left you too?"

"Nope, just not gonna tell you any" the soldier started but was then knocked out due to Naruto punching him in the Stomach.

It wasn't enough to kill him, but just enough to knock him out.

After the Body of that soldier fell to the ground, Naruto made some Clones, had them go notify Kakashi, Neji, and Anko about where they will rendezvous, then picked the Soldier up, tossed him over his Shoulder and took off to the spot.

(Ten Minutes Later)

Naruto, who had arrived at the Gates of the Village minutes ago, was still waiting for his Team, and once they finally arrived, he dropped the Soldiers to the ground and asked them all

"I take it that since you don't have anyone with you at the moment you killed all your Curse Seals didn't you?"

"Hai" they all replied in unison.

"Well not this one. I killed all of my Curse Seals but this one" Naruto said before turning to Anko. "Anko-Chan, do you think you can extract some information from the guy when wakes up?"

"Trust me, I don't think I can, I know" Anko replied.

"Right, so I guess we'll just have to wait till he wakes up" Naruto proposed until Anko started laughing. "What Anko-Chan?"

"Oh nothing it's just that you actually think we have to wait for this" Anko

"It's just the fact that you think we actually have to wait" Anko revealed. "Naruto-Kun, I can extract the information from him right now, and he doesn't even have to be awake for it."

"Really?" Naruto asked.

"Do you realize who you're talking to?" Anko questioned.

"Right" Naruto embarrassingly said while rubbing The Back of his Head. "So when are you going to"

"Now" Anko interrupted before dragging the downed body of the Man into the Woods.

After a Minute passed, Naruto realized something and asked himself

'Is Anko-Chan gonna be fine without too?' But was interrupted by the sound of agonizing screaming, coming from the woods. 'Never mind.'

(Five Minutes Later)

Anko came back to the Gates with a now blood carcass, and told her team

"He told me everything."

"Alright, so what's up with this place?" Naruto asked.

And so Anko began explaining everything that the now dead person told her.

After about Ten Minutes, she finished and they all knew what to do next.

They all took off at the same time, located the person who Orochimaru put in charge of the place, broke down their door, and for some reason, he was weaker than the Curse Seals they fought, so they quickly put him out of his misery.

Afterwards, they found the person from the Village who asked for their help, and who was also more than suitable enough to be the new leader, as this person was a fair Police Officer, and after explaining everything to him, they asked him if he wanted the job, he accepted, and they gave it to him.

They told him that he should notify everyone in the Village of what happened and then they told him what he should do afterwards, in order to both clean up the messes caused by Orochimaru, but also to make it clear to everyone that what they were going through wasn't good, as everyone was oblivious to any and everything that was going on in the Village, well everyone except the Police Force and Orochimaru of course.

After doing this, they took the Money from the Police Office that was charged in order for them to do the Mission, then proceeded to head back to the Leaf, as there was no longer a need for them there.
