A/N: Sorry, I meant to update last week... But I had a hectic week last week. Enjoy the chapter.
Chapter 168: Ohm's Crisis
Ohm (as the priest was known) looked at the two.
"So one of you is the one that defeated Gedatsu." Said Ohm.
"I am!" said Naruto.
"That doesn't matter, he was an idiot." Said Ohm.
"I know…" said Naruto with a sigh, "It was so annoying."
Ohm began to cry.
"What's wrong?" asked Naruto.
"Just crying over the frailty of humanity." Said Ohm.
"Naruto!" cried Chopper.
Naruto saw a body, he turned towards Ohm.
"You did this, didn't you?" asked Naruto.
"Yes." He cried, he began to talk about how humans always fought, built Naruto didn't understand it.
"So he stopped thinking." Said Kyubi.
"Why did you say that?" asked Naruto.
"Never mind." Said Kyubi, "Anyways, you want to have some fun?"
"What do you mean?" thought Naruto.
"It seems like every little thing to him a sin that requires "saving"." Explained Kyubi, "I just wonder how he'll react to the ultimate sin."
"What that?" asked /Naruto.
"Just repeat every word I say." Said Kyubi.
Naruto cleared his throat.
"So everything is considered a punishable sin to you, right?" asked Naruto.
"It is the way of humans." Said Ohm.
"Answer me this!" said Naruto, "Then why do you commit the ultimate sin to cleanse them of their sins?"
"What?" asked Ohm.
"The ultimate sin is to take a man's life." Said Naruto, "Sure there are horrible sins. But nothing more horrible then taking a man's life."
Ohm was in shock, he never thought of that before. The air turned black around him. "What have I done?" he asked himself.
Chopper and Naruto stared at him.
"What did you do to him?" asked Chopper.
"It was Kyubi, I just repeated what he said!" yelled Naruto.
Meanwhile at the Going Merry, Aisa jumped into the water, but Isaribi fished her out.
"Why did you do that!" yelled Aisa.
"You really want to get yourself killed!" yelled Isaribi.
Aisa managed to get out of her grasp.
"I'm a warrior of Shandora, I have to save them!" she yelled out before jumping off the ship again.
"I'll handle this one." Said Nami.
Nami grabbed her waver and jumped in after her. The two argued, when the crew on the ship saw the snake.
"Hey!" yelled Kiba, "Look out for the giant snake!"
They turned to see, screamed then ran away.
"That's the giant snake that separated you guys… right?" asked Ino with a large sweat drop.
"Yeah." Admitted Kiba.
There was an awkward silence.
"You thought I was lying! Weren't you!" he yelled at Ino.
"Maybe…" said Ino.
Hinata looked at the retreating giant snake who seemed to following Nami and Aisa.
"I hope Naruto's okay." She thought.
Meanwhile with Gaara. He had found many crisp bodies. He knew it was the work of someone. He also noticed the large beanstalk and thought that something might be up there so he decided to climb it.
"Something' up there." He thought.
Back with Naruto, he was scratching Holy's stomach.
"Who's a good boy! Who's a good boy." Said Naruto.
"Um… Naruto… why don't you ever do that with Akamaru?" asked Chopper.
"He's Kiba's dog and he's always with Kiba." Said Naruto, "I never really my chance."
"I see." Said Chopper.
He then turned to Ohm.
"Are you okay?" asked Chopper.
"Everything I have ever known is a lie." He said.
"Okay…" said Chopper unsure how to respond.
That was when the main Shandora, a man named Wyper came up from the bean stalk.
"So you blue sea dwellers made it all the way here." Said Wyper, that was when he noticed Ohm, "What happened to him?"
"What happened to him?" he asked.
"The demon sealed inside of me broke him." Explained Naruto.
"What?" asked Wyper with a sweat drop.
"Don't ask." Said Naruto really not wanting to explain at the moment.
"How can man become saved?" asked Ohm.
"I don't want to know what happened." mumbled Wyper who turned his attention to Naruto and Chopper.
"So I guess you want to fight." Sighed Naruto, "Sure..."
"Naruto…" cried Chopper.
"I'll be fine." Said Naruto.
"I don't have time for this." Muttered Wyper, "I have to fight Eneru."
"He's not there!" came a voice.
They saw Gan Fall came from the sky on Pierre, "I had just gotten back from God's Shrine. Eneru isn't there."
That was when Gaara showed up.
"Oh hey Gaara." Said Naruto like it was nothing.
Gaara nodded, "The rest of us should stop fighting."
"What?" asked Gan Fall.
"This is all a game, a sick game." Said Gaara.
"What do you mean?" asked Naruto.
"The god wants us to fight." Said Gaara, "I don't know what he's planning. But it's not good."
"Let me guess.,.. you took out quite a few." Said Naruto.
"Yes." Said Gaara.
""Remember Naruto… let him take baby steps." Said Kyubi.
"Yeah…" responded Naruto.
"Why should I believe some blue sea dweller?" asked Wyper.
"Because… chances are it's true." Said Gaara.
Wyper gritted his teeth in anger.
That was when there was a loud crash, Chopper went to investigate, it was Zoro.
To explain where Zoro had been all this time: After beating the one with the gun, he got lost with a South Bird following him… And considering he was supposed to head south in the company of a South Bird… it was extremely sad. Not only was he lost. He somehow wound back at the altar.
Which is even sadder.
Him and the South Bird ended up being chased by the giant snake. The bird realized that the Zoro weighted him down he dropped him there.
And that's what happened to Zoro… (you may begin your laughter).
"What's going on?" asked Zoro.
"It's a long story." Said Chopper.
There was a lot of tension in the air. Most of it coming from Wyper.
"Maybe we should try to get that guy out of his funk." Said Kyubi.
"Why?" asked Naruto.
"Because… "said Kyubi.
"That's not a good answer." Said Naruto.
"Do you really want him to be taken out so easily?" asked Kyubi.
Naruto gave no answer.
Meanwhile with Wyper he glared at those around him. A battle was going to erupt soon. And it wasn't going to end well.
Next Time: A fight erupts, between Wyper, the crew and Gan Fall. Well... actually Chopper's too scared to do anything... Naruto decided to try to undo his mess with Ohm and Gaara... Gaara's just standing there... So... it's Zoro the only one fighting. What will happen? Find out next time!
