"Rescuing the Kazekage Arc"
Saiki
Good grief.
"Sakura!" The fifth Hokage shouted. Impatiently staring at her apprentice.
Saiki, who does not know what to reply to the blonde.
When Sakura did not response to her, Tsunade's brow twitched. She was about to blunt at the pink haired when Shizune interrupt.
"Tsunade-sama." The said Kage turned to her.
"What?"
"A message arrived from the Suna council," She muttered with a bird in her arm. There's a scroll in its arm.
Shizune gave it to the Hokage. When Tsunade read what's inside the scroll.
Saiki using his X-Ray Vision, he read it. It is asking for help to rescue the Kazekage.
"What?!" Naruto shouted. Shocked and confused across his face when he heard that his friend is being kidnapped. "Then, what are we waiting for? Let's go to Suna!"
"Wait, Naruto!" Tsunade stopped him.
Knowing Naruto, he will surely run to Suna even though he don't have plans.
"Baa-chan-!"
"Stop it, will you? Let the Godaime finish."
Naruto was about to protest when Saiki forcefully control Naruto's mind. It's hard though, what is it to expect from the unpredictable ninja? Naruto zipped his mouth in instant. Looking at his granny Tsunade intently. Tsunade eyed Naruto and Sakura for a seconds then proceed to discuss the mission.
"Yosh! Let's go save Gaara, 'ttebayo!" Naruto stated.
Jumping trees to trees made Saiki sweat a bit. He's not tolerate for this. Saiki is known as a easy going psychic. But because of the incident loop he's in, he can't fully use his abilities again. Just like in his dimension.
What a pain. This is so tiring. Maybe I'll do something about this.
Continuing the jumping. He control their eyes and minds. Thinking that Sakura is jumping and running with them, Saiki is flying. He's not even worried about them or for who will able to see him like this. He is a psychic. It's not a boost though.
Jumping tree to tree again, Saiki notice a another presence. He tap Naruto's shoulder and point at the ground. They have notice Temari.
Until then, they informed Temari about the situation. About Gaara's kidnapping and Kankuro being affected by unknown poison. And knowing that he's in their medic's body, then it's his responsibility for their wounds and stuffs.
Temari looked away. Worried filled her body. They decided to resume their travel but this time, they are faster than the last time.
Naruto on the other hand, still not finish on his bumbling about saving his friend. "I know what it feels... We're both jinchuriki..."
Saiki, listening into Naruto's thoughts about the harshality about being a jinchuriki. Listening how he feels about having a beast sealed inside him. Tough childhood Naruto had, Saiki realized about how cruel the world is in the said anime.
Saiki sighed. Still flying easy, "He really did have a ninja way... Good grief. He is no different from my classmates, such a pain. It was great that I lived in a modern and in a real world.
Saiki, doing his easy-going-suna. Floating while hypnotizing them.
So long but not too long, they have arrived at the Sunagakure and greeted by the sand nins on guard. Once they stepped in the room where kankuro's in, Chiyo make her ignorance by hissing at Kakashi and just stopped by the granny's old brother.
Saiki sighed. They had lead him to Kankuro to get the poison out of his body. It can't be help, did it? Now. How can I remove the poison? I'm not a medic...
He have audience here. Watching his every moves. On a second thought, he sighed. Why am I in this situation? Why am I in another's story? I have mine to continue. He irritably thought while staring at Kankuro.
Without thinking about someone who will may see this, he lifted his both hands and stop into Kankuro's chest. Medics in the room panicked about what the pink haired medic was doing. She's going to heal the Kazekage's brother without any orders nor stuffs they may needed.
Saiki let out a breath silently. Thinking about the poison in this brunette's body, he stares deeply in his hands and thinking to control the unknown poison off to the body.
In a seconds, the medics, Kakashi, Temari and others looks at the pink haired with a shock and sweats on their when they saw the poison smoothly get out of Kankuro's body.
Chiyo stood up shock about what was she's seeing. She had checked about Kankuro's situation but none came up with a theory to make a antidote. But this girl. A Konoha medic kunoichi. It's not surprising that this girl knows about medic, it was because her master. She had heard that she's the Fifth Hogake's apprentice, the slug princess. But the more shocking is that, this little medic is currently taking the poison out smoothly without breaking a sweat. Chiyo rose her brows. 'This girl have a great potential.'
Naruto stares at Sakura with a smile and proud face. 'Heh, Sakura-chan's really dependable...' he chuckled.
Saiki sighed. Hearing the 'granny's' and the idiot blonde's thoughts make him almost to hiss. Focusing into the poison, he slightly shook his head. He does not need distraction. He needs to finish this faster. Who am I kidding? Good grief.
Temari sighed at relief. 'What a formidable medic she is... After this, Kankuro will owe Sakura.' Still watching the pink haired's show, she smiled. Knowing that her brother will definitely save. But her smile fell. Thinking about Gaara's situation.
Moving on to Sakura's show off, Kankuro gained consciousness of course. Handling Kakashi the information about one of the Akatsuki who which kidnapped his brother. The piece of Sasori's clothing that he obtained during the battle.
Kakashi summons his companion dog ninja. Saiki sighed. Asking Kakashi about the piece of clothe. Psychometric. Touching the clothe without his gloves will give him the information from the object's. Taking his or rather, the medic's pink gloves, he saw how Kankuro fought the old man and lose. Still touching the clothe, he crossed his eyes together, trying to know where the target located is. Clairvoyance. Good grief. Even though I want this to finish already, I can't. I'm not the main character. I'll definitely ruin the anime.
Kakashi decided to have a one night rest in the village and start the hunt tomorrow. He also found out the extra help from team Gai.
Kankuro then begged Naruto to save his brother.
"Heh, you can leave it to me dattebayo," Naruto declared with a light smile. "After all, I am eventually going to be the Hokage! So I'll do the Kazekage a favor early on!"
Saiki shook his head slowly.
Pakkun manage to track down the Akatsuki's location and informed Team Kakashi. Kakashi asked the ninken to inform the Team Gai about the hiding base of the Akatsuki.
Saiki just looked at them silently. Unknown to the medic's team that he already know where the base. Resting for a night, Saiki slipped up, feeling bored at what's happening to his life. Using invisibility, he can use it for ten minutes. He can try to sight the Akatsuki closer.
Teleport is one of his abilities that really handful all the time. Common and always used. Good grief, nothing will lose after all. I'm just curious- Now now, I sounded like my classmates. He shook his head and proceed from teleporting place to place until he reach the large cave base.
Walking in the water with a swift move, he place his hands over the stone. Noticing about the seal above. He shook his head. Nothing will work for me as long as I'm a psychic. Invisibility, he teleported inside the cave.
Seeing people with a black red with a cloud cloak, standing with a projection meeting. They haven't notice him yet. Noticing the big creature with a lot of eyes in the upper mid. The Kazekage lying at the ground, absorbing the Tailed Beast from his body.
He wished to save the Kazekage. No. I cannot. This isn't my show. I'll help of course but I'm not changing it's story.
"Are we done yet?"
"No. One more day."
"One step further from our plans."
Saiki sighed.
The leader stops his breathing. Feeling of something no, someone's watching them. "Zetsu," he called out. "Is anyone besides us here?"
Zetsu shake his head. Black Zetsu replied. "No but it felt like there's someone who is watching us."
Everyone turned to Deidara and Sasori. The blonde frowned. "What? No one followed us, yeah!"
"Impossible. I feel the presence but it's really masked," Itachi said revealing his sharingan.
Pain looked around, he can't find the presence even with his rinnegan. "Who are you? Come out."
Saiki watched them intensely. Not wanting to reveal himself to them, he teleported near the Suna village.
The morning came and Team Kakashi decided to leave the village with the shinobi of Sunagakure. Baki interrupt and announcing about the council's decision. So instead of the ninja of Sunagakure will accompany the Konoha ninja to rescue their Kazekage, the granny, Chiyo, will come and help to with them.
During the travel, Saiki did not bother to float. He's not in the mood to do that, thinking that it's unfair to the granny ninja who is jumping with them.
They were stopped by the Sharingan user, Itachi.
"Do not look at his eyes!" Kakashi informed out to them. Not wanting them to be the target of the terrific power of the mangekyo sharingan. Kakashi manage to stop Itachi to cast a genjutsu.
Little did they know, Itachi's ring can cast a genjutsu, caught by Naruto.
Saiki, saw Naruto desperately releasing the sharingan user's genjutsu, but when he realized that Naruto can't overcome the power, Saiki flicked his fingers effortlessly, releasing Naruto to the illusion.
Chiyo looked startled about how the pink haired medic release the genjutsu without any effort. Suspiciously eyeing the pink, she narrowed her eyes where Kakashi and the Uchiha were fighting.
Fireball jutsu from the Uchiha's mouth, Kakashi successfully dodged it. The combination attack of Chidori and Rasengan, they manage to land an attack on the Uchiha. The battle continues with intense displayed of the two sharingan holders.
With that, Naruto chasted his attack with his shadow clone. "Giant Rasengan!" He launch the giant rasengan with a bit of the Kyuubi's chakra and instantly blasted the Uchiha away.
Team Kakashi and Chiyo found out about the body of Suna's ninja used by the Uchiha. Realizing the purpose of the fight, a distraction of saving Gaara. Reporting it to the Suna, informing the village about the situation.
Saiki, on the other hand, not really caring about the situation because he already know what was going to happen even though he did not manage to watch this scenarios. Good grief. When am I going to go home?
Both of the teams teamed up now and decided that it would be wise idea to rest for the night and continue it tomorrow.
Speaking about tiring, the teams' now tired. Though Naruto didn't agree at first and wanting to save his fellow jinchuriki, if it's not for Saiki controling his mind, he wouldn't have to agree. Not that he knows.
Good grief, where can I sleep? There's no way I'll sleep on the ground nor trees.
They set a fire in the middle of the trees. Others set their bedrolls and others just sat and leaned against the tree.
Saiki sighed at the familiar scenario. Slightly deja Vu with Teruhashi. It's when Teruhashi took Saiki's limiter off his head, he can say it's just an accident.
Saiki walked out from their camp site and look for the woods. When he gather enough trees, using Telekinesis, the woods moved with a swift to make a wood hut.
He sighed. Good. This works.
Entering the said newly made hut, he lay down to the matress comfortably.
He's not worried about who will wake up and check for their Sakura. If ever, he can just use Memory Supplementation. In any means, he'll fills them with a false memory.
He sighed in relief. He missed his bed. He missed his dimension. He missed his idiotic Riki. He missed his annoying classmates. He missed his parents. And of course, he missed coffee jelly.
But this is not really what he wants. To enter a anime world. In his world, he's the protagonist. But here? It's the knucklehead idiotic ninja.
What was happening to his life? God really hate me.
It is when the teams decided to moved again. No one catches Saiki in the hut he made. Thanks luck though. They continue to pursue Gaara.
Chiyo asked Kakashi why Naruto was eager to save the young Kazekage. It was until Kakashi explained that Naruto was currently the kyuubi holder. That Naruto knows how and what Gaara felt from being suffered.
Naruto, just don't want to see his friend suffer more. Saiki sighed about that. I don't really have a say on this. Good grief, this is your issue. I will stay out of it.
Saiki, hearing the granny's thoughts. Saiki sighed, narrowing his eyes in front while jumping. Crossing his eyes together, he saw farther away, the Akatsuki's finally finished the extracting the beast's chakra.
They were late.
Neji uses his Byakugan to see what is inside the tunnel, Gaara was nowhere to be found but he saw glimpse of a demonic statue. Gai attempts to break the stone with brute force but it was no use as the tunnel was protected by a strong seal.
Saiki raises his brows at the scene. Though he still wondering when he can be back to his own home, he's quite enjoying the entertainment here. 'It was like I was literally watching a tv... Yare yare. It looks like Naruto Shippuden was a bad luck for me.'
Saiki watches the team Gai to scatter to find the location of the more four tag seals.
Unknowingly to the others, Saiki felt and saw what's happening inside the big cave. Saiki heard the Uchiha say something about the jinchuriki description and something about who will speak nor shout first. Saiki cringed. 'It was the convincing idiot blonde of course.'
He saw the most of Akatsuki members have left the tunnel with only the long blonde and old man looking behind. He hears the leader instructed them to catch the nine tails jinchuriki alive.
Team Gai finally reaches where the seals located, torning it off with the same exactly time. Kakashi notified Sakura, or rather Saiki, to forcefully open the rock. They backed off waiting for their pink haired teammate to make a move when Saiki did not move where he stand.
"Sakura-chan? What's wrong, dattebayo?" Naruto asked his friend with a confuse on his face.
When Saiki didn't response to Naruto but instead, staring at him, Kakashi called out. "What are you waiting for Sakura!"
Saiki— did know, that the body of his now, the body of the medic ninja have a brutal and force strength. But he's not. He's a Psychic. Psychic was supposed to be relaxing. He was supposed in his dimension, eating coffee jelly. Why though, this is so tiring. He sighed. Hearing this his suppose teams loud complaining, he slowly walked towards the rock and stop when he reach, 15 inches away, lifting his hand to tap the rock. The rock blasted away.
Chiyo's Naruto's and Kakashi's eyes widened at the effortless move. To Chiyo, it's suspicious. This pinky actually showing her power without effort. To Sakura's team, they had just thought about Tsunade who was her mentor.
'Kinda scary...' That's what Naruto and Kakashi's on their mind. They shook their heads and proceed to run inside only finding the two member of the Akatsuki, waiting patiently for them.
Saiki sweat dropped at how Naruto's loud voice complain about the blonde ninja who was sitting on Gaara's body. This rage Naruto and his anger let the nine tails chakra leaks out.
On the other side, Saiki secretly crossed his eyes together to see what happened to the other team using clairvoyance. He saw them, meeting their opponent, their mirror. They will fight the enemies which looks just like them.
Saiki exhale, Good grief. They can handle themselves.
He looked around only to see Naruto rushing outside the tunnel, following the Akatsuki members which has Gaara's body.
Kakashi was about to exit when he stops and face the two ladies. Lady Chiyo announced that they will handle Sasori. Kakashi nodded and immediately follows Naruto behind.
Lady Chiyo manages to use a kunai to reveal a hidden weapon under his coat.
The enemy activated its puppet.
Lady Chiyo explain to Sakura that Sasori was not himself, in fact it's a puppet called hiruko. Saiki didn't startled, Why? Because I can see it through. Oh, I sounded like someone, good grief. The granny explained it further about their puppet enemy, Saiki of course, listened to it. This was not his annoying classmates, he did not have to be so rude.
When Chiyo finishes, Saiki knew that this granny was to stop her grandson. He knew what this granny thinking. So saying his plan, Lady Chiyo agreed.
Saiki run towards the old face puppet, Sasori launch an senbon poison attack to the enemy which Saiki perfectly avoides it. Chiyo started running too behind the pink haired medic. The two continue to dodged the senbons, Lady Chiyo did not even notice that Saiki was levitating and avoiding the poisons swiftly. However, Sasori noticed how this young shinobi doing, and that impresses Sasori.
The senbon poison run out and Saiki was about to be close to the enemy when a pointy weapon, the enemy's tail was nearing his face, in fact, it was 2 inches away from his face and it was about to stab his face if he did not concentrate and let the weapon make itself a ribbon. This shock Sasori and caught off guard. Yosh, it works, however, my heart actually stops for a seconds, it was a close call. This is so much tiring.
He levitates much higher, smoothly punched the puppet's body. The puppet broked. The actual body of Sasori backs out a little with a black mantel, facing them with his back
And now, Lady Chiyo will now reunited with her grandson after 20 years. When Sasori turned his body on them, this shocks Lady Chiyo. The true identity of her opponent, looks exactly what she had last seen. Sasori did not aged nor less.
Sasori summons one of his strongest puppet to fight the duo. The Third Kazekage. Of course Saiki did not know who is this puppet. He though have heard the enemy's thought.
'This is one of my finest. Go kill them.'
Saiki cringed. He too hears the granny's thoughts.
'I will now finish my responsibility for his crime as his grandmother.'
The battle continues, just when Sasori was about to lined the poisonous blade on the kunoichi, Lady Chiyo had manage to control Sakura with her thread to block the Third Kazekage's attack, however, Sasori did not let this opportunity slide by and let out a poisonous gas at this enemy.
Yare yare. I can take care of myself, but thank you though. Saiki— of course didn't want to say it out loud. But the poison gas had affected him. He heard the granny shouted his suppose name. He stood up, releasing the poison gas easily. He slowly walked towards the granny and he saw what's happening. There's now a two puppet with their side. A woman and a man. The puppets attack and dodge attacks from Sarori.
Right now, the battle was now in our favor's. Battle of puppets, Releasing the dangerous technique of the Sandaime Kazekage, the Iron Sand.
Yare yare, can this be more worst? I'm not even from here.
Now, the battle continues.
Hello. Sorry for the errors! And the slight AU in this chapter. Chiyo, Saiki vs Sasori. The Gaara arc I think will be done within the next chapters or few so stay tune! And last thing. This story will only (maybe not) focuses where Sakura canonically was in. I might not focus to the others such us Team Gai in this arc, ya know it's hard to write when English was not your first language. That's all. Oh, Not Edited.
But I do hope you enjoyed this. I'll come back soon:)
