Reality Viewing: Naruto the Charming Assassin Charmer
-Chapter 6-
"I really hate waiting for this stupid buffering," Momo muttered as the screen finished cooling down and changed to show Kabuto's mutated form once more.
"Senjutsu, Naruto-kun, you've really come a long way, haven't you? To think you've mastered such a powerful skill."
Kabuto had to admit he was impressed by what he was seeing go down in front of his eyes as he looked at the screens. Even now, he was just getting his body ready to go and learn Senjutsu the Snake Summon way of learning it.
"Ugh, that's the last thing that's needed, a guy like him getting his hands on that kind of power." Mikan said with a disgusted expression while the rest of the group nodding in agreement.
Even his own master, Orochimaru, had never been able to fully master Senjutsu. Jiraiya, the Toad Sannin, hadn't truly mastered the art of Senjutsu.
"Is it really that hard to learn?" Lala asked, her head tilted in curiosity.
"I don't know, but I'm sure there will be a convenient pop-up to tells right about… now." Nana said while pointing towards the TV with a hopeful look, only to blink in surprise when said pop-up wasn't there. "I mean now." Still nothing. "Uh, now?" Nada. "Oh come on! Where is it already?"
"Maybe the TV just doesn't like you." Momo said teasingly, making her less developed sibling scowl at her in annoyance.
As he was now, he wouldn't be able to defend himself against Naruto.
He was in the middle of the process of injecting himself with the genetic material of the Sound 4, technically Sound 5, so that he could gain their abilties and increase his power further. That way his body would be strong enough, his chakra great enough, to go to the snake sage and receive his own Senjutsu bite.
"That does not sound pleasant… at all." Mikan said with a shiver, both at the sight of Kabuto injecting himself with numerous other peoples blood and the mental image of voluntarily letting a snake bite her.
"Oh look, isn't that the information you wanted?" Momo asked Nana with a cheeky grin as the Sage Mode pop-up reappeared, only this time less of the information was blacked out revealing the basics of Sage Mode training.
Growling under her breath, Nana clenched her fists as she repressed the urge to strangle her twin, instead focusing on reading the newly revealed information, hoping to possibly be able to reverse engineer the ability for herself since it sounded like an interesting trick to have.
However, before she even got halfway through the girl found herself paling rapidly as she read over the numerous horrific consequences that she could suffer from for even the tiniest mistake. 'Well there went that idea.'
Strapped to the chair, allowing the DNA to blow through his accepting veins, meant he was defenseless to attacks at the moment, and he couldn't stop his operation either without using his chances of taking his power further.
It would seem Naruto was still good at being a headache for him.
"Good, now he just has to be a literal pain in the ass by beating that evil creep into the next millennium." Momo said with a vindictive smirk.
-With Naruto-
"More people with Cursed Seals."
'... and no tentacles on these ones.' Yami thought with relief as she looked at the gray skinned monstrosities in front of them. Several of them all grouped together, each of them with black and yellow eyes, and deformed other traits.
"Oh my, those poor people." Sephie muttered with sadness in her eyes, saddened to see so many suffering from such cruel fates.
"Trust me mom, these guys were the lucky ones." Nana told her, once again shivering as the images of the other unfortunate bastards that Orochimaru had 'Studied' and 'Tested'.
Some had bladed wings with three toed feet, one hand cannons for arms with cannons also sticking out of his back. Then there were triplets who were horned and covered in spikes.
No tentacles though, unlike with the super dead guy.
'And that's the important part.' Yami thought with an almost inaudible sigh.
"I'm starting to run low on chakra." Kakashi lowered his headband back over his Sharingan eye. He had maybe 2 or 3 more good jutsu left in him before he was out of chakra to use for battle. He had been going through his chakra reserves left and right as they battled a rather small army of ninja and Cursed Seal users who could take a better beating than the regular ninja.
Then again, the odds were stacked against them.
Fighting a Sage, and a near-Kage level ninja at the same time, while also defending against the bladed hair of an alien girl wasn't easy for cannon fodder ninja like the ones they had been fighting.
"Man, now I'm starting to feel kinda bad for those guys," Mikan said pityingly. "It must really suck to be cannon fodder."
"Times like this make me wish I could share my chakra." Naruto told Kakashi as he raised his fists up to fight the group blocking them.
"Raaaaaah!"
'He's shooting energy from the cannons on his back to increase his movement speed.' Yami noted when the more dangerous looking guy shot towards them like a, no surprise, cannon.
"Uh, that's a neat trick and all, but shouldn't the localized acceleration of those cannons cause his spine to snap or something like that?" Momo asked Yami, who had the most experience with anatomy, with a raised brow.
"Normally yes, but it is likely his body's density is higher than normal to compensate for the strain of the recoil." Yami said while analyzing the opponent.
Yami saw him coming towards her, so she moved her hair towards him and created 12 blades out of it. At the speed the man was going, he wasn't going to be able to avoid cutting himself to ribbons on her blades.
Then again, moments later, she was proven wrong.
He ignored her blades completely and smashed through them, her blades bouncing off of his apparently super hardened skin.
"Oh, I see what you mean now." Momo muttered, her eyes widened slightly in surprise. Yami's blades could cut through solid steel with only a little difficulty so that dude would have to be absurdly sturdy to be able to shrug her blows off like that.
She was taken by surprise, since only Naruto had ever ignored her blades like that before.
"Haah!" Naruto ran towards the man when he saw Yami in danger. He ducked under a cannon punch that blasted the wall next to them to absolute pieces, before he returned with his own power packed punch to the center of the man's chest. Naruto's fist went deep into his chest, so deep that despite not piercing his chest, an imprint of his fist could be seen through the man's back.
"Gah!"
"And another one bites the dust." Nana muttered, unable to stop herself from cringing slightly as she saw the cannon user wiggle weakly as he dangled on Naruto's arm, doomed to silently choke to death from the blow crushing his lungs, heart, and spine.
"These guys... Cursed Seals use Senjutsu Chakra to work! It's tainted though." Naruto spoke up, warning Kakashi and Yami about the enemies' abilities.
He thought he had sensed it earlier, but now he was sure of it.
'Of course they do, cause why not.' Yami thought dully.
Yami changed her hand into a hammer instead a sword, since she was pretty sure that her blades weren't sharp enough to cut the enemies. Thinking on it, she changed both of her fists into large metal versions of her fists. It would be better to go fully offensive, with enough weight to serve as a good defense if need be.
"Oooooh, shiny~." Lala cooed as Yami's other glimmered in the lighting of the tunnels.
"Out of curiosity, how much of your body can you turn into metal at once?" Mikan asked her assassin friend curiously.
"All of it," Yami said calmly as her entire body turned a metallic silver color for a few moments before switching back to normal. "However, doing so in combat is unwise as it puts a large amount of strain on my nanites to maintain, the increased weight slows me down far too much, and it restricts my flexibility."
"Makes sense, but it must certainly come in handy when you have to deal with explosions or heavy blows you can't avoid, huh?" Mikan asked with a grin…
…only to lose it a few seconds later when Yami froze up with a look of realization on her face. "You never even thought of that, did you?"
"…Admittedly no."
Palming her face with a sigh, Mikan stared at her friend dully. "Yami, we really need to work on your creative thinking."
"Here they come." Kakashi spoke as Naruto dropped the dead man to their side.
The triplets rushed towards them, while the bladed one stayed behind. Yami stood in front of Kakashi, and she grabbed the arms of one of the triplets that went for the man. She gripped down firmly on the man's arms, so that he couldn't move them. Her hair floated in the air, before transforming into several large hammers. With them, she started to beat down on the man's shoulders with repeated full force strikes. There was a sickening crunch as his shoulders were dislocated.
"Ah!?"
"So they share pain." Kakashi noted when the two others stopped for a moment and grabbed their shoulders.
"That sounds incredibly inconvenient." Sephie said with a raised brow while Yami nodded in agreement, since feeling your allies' pain in a fight would be an unneeded distraction that would probably get you killed.
"Going to be honest, wasn't expecting to go to war today. Thought it would be a lot easier than this." Naruto punched one of them in the temple, and down like a light he went, a fist imprint in the side of his head. Naruto ducked underneath a punch from his other side, before he raised his leg high into the air and kicked the attacker right in the neck. In less than a second, both of the men were sent flying into the ceiling and wall.
Kakashi grabbed a kunai, and ran pure lightning chakra through it, increasing its sharpness many times its usual amount. He jumped over Yami and flipped, cutting through the back of the man's neck with it, and when he did, the man fell limp.
'That was my kill.' Yami thought as she frowned, quite honestly upset that Kakashi would steal her kill so casually.
"Rude." Yami muttered with a scowl. Nobody stole her kills, nobody.
So she ran towards the winged man, and she engaged in hand to hand with him. His bladed wings serving as two extra arms for attacking. She, with a much smaller body, had an easier time dodging in the rather narrow hallway than the man did. She was able to weave through most of his attacks, though one of his wings skimmed her side. She winced in pain when her dress was cut, and she was given a shallow cut along her ribs.
"Oh no! Yami-chan's hurt!" Lala exclaimed worriedly as she sprung to her feet, only for her mother to quickly grabbed her by the waist and pull her back to her seat.
"Relax Lala, it's only a small cut, I'm sure she'll be fine." The queen said calmly while gently rubbing her daughter's head.
"Now die!"
Taking her wince as a chance to kill her was his mistake. As he was about to slam his wing down on her head, she changed the direction of his attack. She hit his wing with one of her hammers, and he sliced through the side of his own neck instead of her head. Blood sprayed on the wall next to them, and the man looked to where she cut him, before his eyes rolled up and he fell down to the ground.
"Ugh, I don't know what's worse, the constant bloodshed or the fact I'm actually getting used to it." Rito muttered, only a light amount of green on his face this time.
"Agreed." Momo said with a small nod.
"Let's stay here and rest a moment, Naruto, let us know if anything else is coming. I'm going to mold some chakra." Kakashi sat down and started to focus his remaining chakra, increasing how much chakra he had with focus and meditation. Increasing his chakra recovery rate for only a little while would get him enough chakra to use maybe 1 or 2 more jutsu if it came down to it.
Yami touched her hand to her cut side.
"... Fine, Kakashi-sensei, do you have any medical stuff? Yami-chan needs something to stop her bleeding." Naruto said as he sat down with them. He saw that she was wounded, but he didn't really freak out since she seemed like she wasn't too worried about it. Of course, naturally her freaking out about it or not didn't change the fact that she needed to stop the bleeding.
"See, just fine." Sephie repeated as she continued to rub Lala's head, making the girl relax further and snuggle into the oldest pinkette's side.
"I have stit-"
"No." Yami denied that firmly, she would rather not have him sewing her skin shut if she could help it. That would be needlessly painful when she would heal on her own anyway. She looked towards Naruto, and saw him look at her wound. He pulled the hem of his jacket up to his teeth, before she saw him bite it and pull.
*Rip*
He ripped a long strip of the orange cloth off the bottom of the jacket, and held it out to her with a grin on his face.
"Aww, that's so sweet of him."
"I know right."
'So that's where she get's it from.' Rito, Mikan, and Yami though as they watched Lala and Sephie gush at the sweet scene.
"Raise your shirt up a little, I'll tie you up." Naruto told her with a smile. Yami looked down at her wound, and saw it was several inches below her breasts. She glanced at Naruto, before she nodded her head and raised her shirt up enough for the wound to be revealed easily. All without showing her breasts to him, which was good for both of them.
"Oh come on Yami-chan, just give him a quick flashing." Momo insisted, playing around with her own rack for added emphasis. "How are you supposed to keep the guy's attention if you won't show him some of the goods?"
Yami didn't respond to the princess's teasing, opting to just ignore her since everything else she tired so far had failed to stop her, yet Momo still came out victorious as a bright blush spread across her cheeks once more.
Kakashi looked at her red cheeks though, something he was sure Naruto didn't notice, and he eye smiled at them.
"Don't touch me in an ecchi way."
"Deny it all you want, you know you want him to-" *Bamf* *Bamf* Bamf* Momo was cut off mid-tease when she was smacked in the face with a pillow three times from different directions, the first from Nana, the second from Mikan, and the final blow from Yami herself.
Giving her assailants a halfhearted glare, Momo stuck her tongue out childishly.
"I wasn't going to!" Naruto shouted at her with red cheeks. He huffed and scooted closer to her, before he started to wrap his cloth around her torso. It wasn't a pretty fix, but it visibly helped cut down on the bleeding as he finished tying it off. Yami nodded her head and lowered her shirt, the orange cloth now visible through the rip in her top. "Feel better?" Naruto asked her.
She deadpanned.
"No, I'm still injured, just not bleeding." Her deadpan response got a sheepish smile from him, knowing she had a point.
"Ah don't be mean Yami, he's just trying to help you." Mikan said while giving her friend a playful shove.
"Naruto, do you have any food pills?" Kakashi asked Naruto as he looked at the pouch on his backside.
"Is he really thinking about food at a time like this?" Mikan asked incredulously, before calming down as small brief description for Food Pills popped up on the screen. "Oh… those actually sound pretty handy."
"They kinda sound like those funky pills Lala gave the penguins when we went to the aquarium." Rito said, grimacing a little upon remembering that incident while Lala giggled sheepishly.
Naruto nodded.
"I have the ones Sakura-chan made for me awhile back, they should still be good... they should still work." Naruto instantly corrected himself as he opened his pouch and pulled out what looked like a mudball. He passed the mudball to Kakashi, who grabbed his mask and pulled it slightly away from his face, dropping it into his mask.
There was the sound of a 'squish', and Kakashi visibly shivered in disgust as his pale face got even more pale, some would even call his face a little green.
"Like any medicine though, it just has to taste freaking awful." Nana said, giggling at the masked man's reaction.
"Or he just has a really weak stomach." Yami stated calmly, Momo and Mikan nodding in agreement.
"Please, I doubt they taste that bad," The busty twin said. "I bet you I could eat one with no trouble at all."
"Yeah right, you are a pickiest eater in the galaxy," Nana muttered with a roll or her eyes, before screaming in surprise along with most of the room's occupants when the TV stopped playing and the space in front of it seemed to be literally torn open. "AAH! What the hell is that?!"
"Probably trouble." Yami said as she reflexively got in front of Mikan protectively, her hair forming into several blades. However, her defensiveness was almost immediately replaced with confused shock as a young white-haired Naruto wearing a mixture of casual clothes and silver armor walked through the rift with a blank expression and a notepad, with a silver haired woman dressed like a maid following shortly after.
"Lord Naruto, is this not a TLR dimension?" The maid asked in confusion, briefly looking over the room's occupants before staring down at the small boy. "I thought you said we were going to see how your creations in Remnant 193 were doing."
Nodding his head, the chibi Naruto scribbled something down on his note pad and held it out for her, and indirectly the entire room. We are Grayfia, I just need to deal with a few small errands along the way
Turning his attention back towards Lala and Co, his gaze zeroing in on Sephie who was staring at him in shock and terror, the snow-haired child stepped forward and bowed slightly while holding out another note. Hello Sephie-san, it is a pleasure to see you again
"A-again?" The queen asked in a shaky tone, earning shocked looks from her daughters. Their mother dealt with all sorts of pressure, stress, and danger as the queen of the known universe without flinching, so to hear her being so frightened by what looked like a small child and his servant was shocking to say the least. "We've met before?"
Indeed, though it is no surprise that you've forgotten me, seventeen years is a long time by your standards and we only actually spoke to each-other for about a minute Naruto wrote with a nod. You may remember me as Necromancer-sama or Lord Necromancer
"Necromancer-sama?" Sephie parroted with a tilted head, only for her eyes to light up in recognition a few seconds later. "Wait, now I remember, you were the one who-" Sephie was cut off when Naruto suddenly poked her in the throat with his glowing hand, causing her voice to stop working.
Raising a hand to her neck, the queen tried to speak a few more times to no avail before blinking as Naruto once again held a note up, only this time right up to her face so only she could read it. It is not yet time for the past to be unveiled, so please refrain from giving away any spoilers
Sephie nodded her head rapidly in understanding as the apparently mute boy crumpled up the paper and poked her neck again, returning her ability to speak.
"Well, it is a pleasure to see you again Necromancer-sama. I'm glad to see that you look… exactly the same," Sephie said as she visibly relaxed, before quirking a brow in curiosity. "But if I may ask, what exactly brings you to my daughters' bedroom?"
"That is something I'd like to know as well." Grayfia said under her breath as Naruto started writing once more.
Just doing a quick favor for an acquaintance Naruto 'said' before reaching behind himself and pulling out a small basket with a ribbon on it.
"OH! A present!" Lala exclaimed excitedly, shooting up from her seat and getting right in front of the boy. "Is it for me!? Is it!? Is it!?"
Not even blinking at the girl's hyper reaction, the white-haired boy simply nodded his head, making the girl squeal happily and hug the boy. In her excitement though, Lala completely missed as Grayfia's fist was engulfed in magical energy as she got ready to blast her to bits, only stopping when Naruto himself waved her down.
"Thank you, thank you, thank you!" Lala said before grabbing the basket and opening it up, revealing a handful of food pills inside along with a small note that said: Enjoy, from the Curious Kitsune ; ) and had a sticker of a chibi fox doing a peace sign. "Aw, that's so cute."
While she was distracted by the gift, Naruto handed Sephie one last note before he and Grayfia vanished into another rift he opened with the scythe that appeared in his hand.
…
…
"…Who the fuck was that, how the fuck did they do that, and more importantly what the fuck just happened?" Momo asked her mother bluntly with a flabbergasted expression that everyone but said queen and Lala shared, the former of which got up and hit the pause button on the now unfrozen television.
"It's… a very long story Momo, one that'll have to wait for now." Sephie said while setting down the note Naruto had given her, which had just four words on it.
I'll be back later
"Besides, weren't you saying something about being able to eat one of those without a problem." The queen said to change the subject, pointing to the gumball sized food pill Lala was currently looking over with a fascinated expression.
"Alright, alright, but don't think I'm gonna let this drop Mom," The busty twin stated before tapping her older sister's shoulder to get her attention. "Hey Lala, give me one of those things, I wanna see if they're really as bad as they are said to be."
"Okay, here you go," Lala said, tossing the food pill she was currently holding to Momo, then proceeding to pass one to everyone else. "Let's all try one, that way everyone can give their own opinion."
"Uuuh, I really don't think eating a medical pill for fun is such a good… and you guys are completely ignoring me." Rito said dully as everyone else in the room ate their pill. Looking at the food pill in his own hand, the orange haired boy sighed tiredly before sticking the pill in his mouth…
…only to almost immediately spit it out with a green face as it flooded his mouth with an absolutely foul taste that almost made him hurl.
*Blerg*
The girls weren't so lucky.
"Oh god, it tastes so-" *Bleagh* Nana groaned as she, Mikan, and Lala vomited into the yltneinevnoc decalp bush once more.
"Dammit you guys, stop puking on my plants, stomach acid is not-" *Blaaaw* Momo started to complain, only to find herself face first in a small garbage can.
The only ones other than Rito not to puke were Sephie, though she looked like she would any sec-*Blerg*
…
…
Yami was the only girl who didn't puke, because she'd been smart enough to spit the pill out like Rito did the moment the foul taste hit her tongue.
-Several minutes of puking later-
"I am never eating one of those again." Momo muttered as she wiped off the last bits of vomit off her lips and popped a few mints into her mouth.
"Agreed!"
"... It does work, that got me close to full on chakra at least." Kakashi muttered as he finished molding his chakra, and sighed when his reserves returned back to full. He couldn't eat another of those food pills, though it wasn't suggested to eat more than 1 food pill a day anyway. While they restored and strengthed the chakra of the user, they could also place a lot of stress on the body to go with it.
'Not to mention they are taste absolutely disgusting.' Everyone in the room thought at the same time.
Yami nodded to Naruto.
With her wound covered, she was good to go on again as well. Kakashi wiped the sweat from his face, and lifted his headband back up.
"We're seeing more Cursed Seals, Naruto, is there anything waiting for us up ahead?" Kakashi asked, and Naruto nodded.
"Mostly weaker ninja, this was the last of the ones with Cursed Seals. I sense a few snake summons though, they are with the ship though." Naruto spoke, before his eyes turned back to normal. He started to pant when a small amount of exhaustion overcame him, a small layer of sweat on his face.
Side effect of running out of Senjutsu chakra, exhaustion, but Naruto wiped the sweat from his face, and took a breath. He regained his lost stamina with just a few moments of rest, but he didn't enter Sage Mode right away.
"He even has an impressive recovery time, your other will definitely be a very happy woman." Momo said to Yami with a wiggle of her brows, before being smacked in the face three more times with pillows. "Deny it all you want, you all were thinking about it."
"So how are we going to get the ship out of the mountain?" Kakashi asked, since they didn't even know how the ship got into the mountain in the first place. It might have been important to bring this up earlier, but they had been running and fighting then. "Plan B?" Kakashi asked Naruto.
Naruto nodded.
"Blow the mountain... or at least blow up the mountain's top." Naruto answered, and after that Yami would be able to fly the ship to safety.
"That would be awesome to see." Nana said approvingly, imagining such a scene in her head.
Then he and Kakashi could go and hunt down Kabuto and bring an end to him. "We only have a few more hours before the sun rises. We need to get the ship, kill Kabuto, and make it back to the village before anyone figures out we left." Naruto gave them their time limit. They weren't on an official mission, and with village security how it was, it would be better for them if nobody knew they left.
'So they're essentially AWOL right now, that is both sweet and bad at the same time.' Mikan thought with a frown, sweet since Naruto would risk getting in trouble t help Yami, and bad since he could get in serious trouble.
Kakashi nodded.
"Lets move then." Kakashi stood up, done resting himself. Yami got ready to stand up, but she saw Naruto offering her a hand. Having no reason not to take it, she grabbed his hand as she was helped back up to her feet.
His hand was so warm, and gentle.
"D'awwwwwww~!" Lala gushed while pulling Yami into a hug. "That is so sweet, you're holding hands!"
"It was just an observation, nothing more." Yami stated, though the light blush on her cheeks belied her words.
"Sure it is, and I hate plants." Momo said sarcastically with a knowing smirk.
The dead bodies around them started to move, but not like a living person. Instead, their bodies started to bubble as their skin deformed further. It was like their skin was water, and it was boiling. The bubbles in their skin got bigger, and blood leaked out of the bubbles.
"They are gonna blow up." Yami said quickly, glad for a change of subject.
"... They're going to explode."
"They're going to blow up!" Naruto shouted when he heard Yami. The trio ran across the hallway, but they didn't get their fast enough.
The bodies blew up in a powerful explosion, with fires chasing after them. Naruto crossed his fingers and created two clones next to him. One helped him form the Rasengan, while the other held his hand over it. The Rasengan's color changed slightly, and it gained small white blades around it.
"Wind Release: Rasengan!"
"Ooooh, that looks cool, like a watered-down version of that rasenshurykenny thing earlier." Nana said in awe.
Naruto slammed his Rasengan into the explosion as it chased them, and he stopped it in it's tracks, before the Rasengan shot off and absorbed the flames into itself. Increasing it's power as the power of the explosion's flames fused with it. The explosion reversed in on itself, and shot away from the group. Naruto collapsed the hallway behind them with the force of his jutsu though, completely sealing off their way back in the direction they came from.
"And it really packs a punch too," Momo said with a low whistle before looking towards Yami, "He really went easy on you."
Yami swore she felt some of her teeth fracture from hard she grit them together as she was reminded of that fight… AGAIN.
"Figures, even his stronger ninja get treated like this." Kakashi muttered, having a moment to think on the men's deaths and how their bodies were laced with explosives.
Naruto frowned.
Treating your comrades this way... it made him sick to think that some people held no value for the people they worked with.
"It is cruel yet very effective strategy." Yami said, having encountered several dead-man triggers like that in the past.
"Lets..." Yami stopped when she turned around, and she nudged Naruto in the side. He turned back around, and saw that they were faced with several dozen ninja, all armed to the teeth with weapons. Several with their hands placed together, having already woven their handsigns and just waiting to unleash their jutsu.
"Well… you're fucked." Momo said bluntly.
Kakashi created a Chidori in his hand, slightly weaker than his Raikiri, but it would take less of his chakra reserves to use it.
"Raaaaah! Gaaaaah, I'm losing control over the Kyuubi inside of me, I'm about to unleash it! Aaaaaah, it hurts!"
Naruto grabbed his stomach and screamed in 'pain' as he fell to his knees.
"Oh shit, it's the Kyuubi Jinchuriki! Lets leave before he kills us all!"
"…Or not?" The busty twin muttered questioningly. "What the hell just happened? And what the heck is a Kyuba Jinchuthing. Isn't this usually where the ever-convenient pop-up comes in play to explain stuff?"
"Maybe the TV doesn't like you." Nana suggested vindictively, making her twin roll her eyes.
Kakashi watched as the horde of ninja all turned tail and ran in the other direction, the threat of an out of control jinchuriki too much for them to think about fighting. Naruto continued to scream in pain until they were all gone, before he stopped screaming and started to dust himself off.
"You're acting is getting a lot better." Kakashi noted to Naruto, who stopped pretending to lose control of himself.
"I'd give it a seven outa ten." Mikan said jokingly.
"Five, his scream was too level, real pain makes the voice hitch and tumble." Yami added with a shrug.
"Well, it worked. We don't have a lot of time, and this seemed faster than actually fighting them. Come on, lets go." Naruto started to run, with Kakashi following closely behind. Yami paused, before she gave her cheeks a small pat. She followed the two ninja as well, but her eyes locked onto the back of Naruto's head.
Kyuubi?
"I will give you this, that was a good idea. Most ninja would be afraid of an out of control Tailed Beast." Kakashi complimented Naruto's quick thinking.
"Finally!" Momo couldn't help but exclaim as the pop-up finally reappeared, this time with a basic overview of Tailed Beasts and Jinchuriki. "I was really getting tired of not knowing what was going on!"
Taking a moment to read over the information, the group had varied reactions, such as Nana disliking how living creatures were hunted down like rabid dogs and used for war, or Lala crying a bit at learning how most Jinchuriki were basically treated like lepers. Meanwhile Yami noted the numerous traits the Jinchuriki got for holding the beasts, which was pretty much enhanced everything.
It had saved him the chakra it would take to kill those men.
Naruto grinned.
"I know, ri-GHT!?" Naruto stopped right when the ceiling and walls opened up, and shuriken started to shoot shuriken out of the walls. Naruto jumped backwards, with only a few of the shuriken hitting his right forearm and sticking in his skin. "Damnit." Naruto landed on his feet as the trap finished.
"Oooh, poor fellow." Sephie hissed sympathetically. Getting stabbed was never fun, something she sadly had personal experience with since more than a few women had tried to kill her for either her throne or just out of jealously for her beauty.
Yami went to Naruto and looked at his arm, seeing that he had three shuriken stuck in his forearm. She grabbed his arm, before she looked at the shuriken more closely, seeing that they were in pretty deeply.
"That looks like it hurt."
"Yeah, hah hah... it actually does hurt." Naruto relented as he started to pull the shuriken out of his arm with a wince. "Don't worry Yami, this much will heal soon enough." Naruto said as the wounds on his arm started to steam and glow a little. In a few moments the wounds would be fully healed, and he would be as good as new again.
Yami looked away.
"I wasn't worried about you."
*Cough* "Bullshit." *Cough* *Cough*
Yami sent Momo yet another glare as the girl whistled casually, somehow conjuring an image of a halo above her head to add to her 'Innocent' image.
She denied his statement of her state of worry, but she noted how quickly he healed from his wounds, something she didn't expect from him. She shook her head and started to run ahead of them, with Naruto and Kakashi following after her.
'I wasn't worried about him, he's strong.' Yami told herself mentally. He had defeated her, he was stronger than her, so she had no reason to be worried about him getting hurt. She was just surprised was all, it wasn't like she felt something in her chest when she saw him get hit by those shuriken.
Right?
"Oh man, you have it so bad for- *Shnk* -EEP!" Momo jumped back with a yelp as a blade embedded itself incredibly, utterly, absolutely to close to her crotch for comfort. Looking towards the owner of said blade, the busty twin started sweating heavily as a very pissed looking Yami towered over her with dozens of blades, maces, and other such weapons ready to go. "…I have a feeling I may have pushed my luck just a little too far this time."
