Naruto and hinata move side by side through a lowline mountain range towards Kumogakure, "Are you ready to put on the act of a lifetime" he asks. Hinata removes her hood to reveal a pair of pink tinted sunglasses, "Yes but why are we taking such a normal pace" she replies. Naruto pulls his hood and half mask down to reveal his own blue tinted sunglasses but only on the left lens, "We can take our time with things" he says, stopping on ridge. Hinata stops next to him and he points to a man being outnumbered by two familiar opponents but also two women fighting. The man was dark skin with blond hair and sunglasses, dressed in a one shoulder white flak jacket, grey pants with ninja sandals, shin and forearm protectors with a white scarf. The teenager has long blond hair wearing a short-sleeved black and purple blouse, black pants, both of which had a design similar to clouds on them, purple fingerless gloves and a chain of blue beads wound around her left hand. Her opponent has blue hair with amber eyes, dressed in the Akatsuki cloak. Naruto tips his glasses down and grins, "Seems luck is on our side.. They both are from Kumo.. This alters the plan a bit but it will still be a success" he says and slips off his glasses.
"Hime you help the blonde and I'll help Killer-B.. Remember to call me Mitsuomi in public" naruto adds and both leap in action. Kisame swings his samehada wide but Killer-B dodges and sidesteps kakuzu, "You know how to run Eight-tails" kisame sneers. Killer-B was no fool when it comes to a fight but he was at disadvantage, due to his friend yugito not fairing well against her opponent. The fifteen year old was holding her own thanks to matatabi but her opponent gave no quarter, "Just keep calm kitten" the neko chides. Yugito dodges the barrage of paper shuriken and extends her nails to block the paper sword, "Give up.. Your death will bring peace" the woman said.
"Not happening.. I will not you take Matatabi" yugito shouts and goes through several hand signs, "Nezumi Kedama" she adds, firing several mouse shape fireballs. Her opponent leaps back and creates a clone to take the flaming projectiles, "Fūton: Daitoppa" the woman recites, sending a wave of wind and paper. Yugito braces herself for the impact but a water dragon gets in her path and blocks the attack, opening her eyes she saw a hooded person with pink gloves. The person reveals themselves as a young woman with pink sunglasses, "Are you alright" she asks, her voice soft but firm. Yugito quickly nods as the woman took a stance she recognizes, "That's the Gentle fist.. Are you a Hyūga" she shouts. The woman raises her glasses with a nod, "I'm Hinata Hyūga but let us focus on our opponent" she states and yugito nods. At the same time Killer-B was fending off both kisame and kakuzu, "Bee someone's helping Yugito and her partner is coming in and he's got my sister's scent" the hachibi shouts. Killer-B backpedals as a black blur appeared above them, halting their fight as he landed.
"Well.. Well.. Well it looks living today to kill me tomorrow backfired" naruto jokes. Kakuzu tsks but kisame smirks, "So again you stick your nose where it doesn't belong.. Mitsuomi Kiriyu.. Triple-Bounty S-class man" he states. Naruto chuckles with his hands in his pockets and rolling on his heels, "Hoh.. Such a lovely title.. So Killer-B-sama.. Which one you want.. I'm a bit partial to the mummy" he states. Kakuzu moves opposite naruto, "Triple the bounty huh.. Kisame I'll take him.. You take the Hachibi" he states. Killer-B glances to mitsuomi, "Bakayarō! Konoyarō.. If Hachibi-sama trusts you.. Then Me too.. Yo!" he says and raises his fist. Naruto laughs and fists bumps him, "Then Let's Rock" he shouts, launching at their opponents.
[Music: Bleach OST - Invasion]
Kakuzu focuses his chakra and turns his left hand black, before swinging a mirrored left straight as naruto swings his own right straight, "Hoh thats new" naruto shot, pushing back. Kakuzu tosses a barrage of exploding kunai but mitsuomi dodges into a somersault from the smoke and vanishes. Naruto appears above with a missile dropkick but kakuzu dodges and his right extends, grabbing naruto by the leg and slams him into the dirt.
"You shouldn't take me lightly like before.. Like my former partner did you.. I'm back to Full strength after your display in Taki" kakuzu remarks, as the arm retracts. Naruto kips up with a smirk, "OH but I won't and this time.. I'll crush all five" he shouts, tossing his coat and sprinting forward. Kakuzu quickly hardens his body as naruto closes the gap instantly, "Hayai and he must have superior hearing to know about my hearts" kakuzu thought, dodging naruto's flurry of punches. Kakuzu leaps back to put some distance but again naruto closes the gap but even faster, "Even faster" he thought but his breath hitches, as lightning bolt goes through his back.
"How?!.. I didn't see you move behind me.. No one is that fast with just sheer legwork" kakuzu grunts out. Naruto taps kakuzu on the shoulder and slam a hard kick to his face, "Heh.. That's one and you're right it is legwork.. It's called Shukuchi or reduced earth.. Using superior legwork.. I can keep up with a carriage at full speed but what you've seen is three steps short.. Into two steps short and lastly one step short.. However it dosen't compare to Shunpo.. Which is even faster" he states. Kakuzu got to his feet with a glare and tosses off his cloak, revealing his sown together body and four different masks on his back. Kakuzu grunts as his body starts to convolse and expands from the sown parts, before bursting into four masked grotesque hair beasts. One a demonic looking tiger, another a deformed four legged winged beast and the last two being deformed bipedal entities but one having a beak. Kakuzu makes a hand sign and the one with wings launches itself, "Fūton: Atsugai" he shouts, engulfing naruto and a large section of the area. The force of the attack forces everyone to put some serious distance from the two combatants.
"Kakuzu that fool but it gives me a better avenue for battle.. Right octoboy" kisame states, as they stand on a lake. Killer-B draws two swords, "Get ready.. Cause I'm gonna make you weep.. You sharky creep.. Yo" he shouts, as red chakra engulfs him and forms seven tails. Hinata and yugito were thrown by the blast but recover as the woman known as Konan gives chase.
"We have been separated.. Kisame and Kakuzu will likely fall.. I must capture the Nibi" konan thought. Suddenly a barrage shuriken approach and konan quickly dodges, landing in a clearing. Hinata and yugito drop down with firm stances but yugito engulfs herself in red chakra and one tail, "Yugito-san.. Let me handle her" hinata states. Yugito glances to hinata but then to konan, "Why would a Hyūga help a Kumo shinobi" she asked.
"Someone I love taught me not to hate someone for something they can not control" hinata says and leaps skyward, her left leg high. Konan narrowly dodges but her breath hitches as hinata creates a ten foot wide crater with her foot. Yugito was looking in shock and matatabi as well, "Kitten that is one strong kunoichi.. Like Tsunade Senju" she states and yugito nods. Killer-B slides to halt with a puzzled stare, "B.. That sword has got your chakra again and it's gotten bigger" hachibi states. Kisame chuckles as samehada chomps on chakra, "Looks like a shark will eat an octopus today" he sneers.
"B.. Let's go full transform" hachibi says but killer-b shakes his head.
"No way.. Fool.. Me and Yugito snuck out.. If we merge.. Brother will come a runnin" B thought. The eight-tails narrows his eyes, "Fine.. I'll lend you some my power since you lost a good bit" he states.
"Yo.. Version Two is the way to move.. So let's groove" B shouts and the eight-tails face-palms, as red chakra engulfs B again. The chakra surrounds his body and a crater forms as it drops, revealing B in a miniature version of the eight-tails covered in thick red chakra but a bull skull forms above his left shoulder. Samahada growls in anticipation and kisame chuckles, "Hoh Samehada is chomping at the bit to eat this refined chakra but I'm impressed he can keep his head with all that chakra" he thought. B charges with a punishing lariat to samehada and kisame sending them across the lake and hitting a rockface, "Man.. I went back to version one.. Kisame is not one to mess around" he states. Samehada moves next to kisame as B saw the massive wound to his chest, "Hahaha.. Funny thing about me.. The stronger the opponent.. The stronger I am thanks to Samehada.. Some even call me the Tailless Tailed Beast" he shouts, his wounds completely healing but leaving a scar. Kisame quickly goes through a hand sign, "Suiton: Bakusui Shōha" he shouts, creating a large amount of water and a huge bubble using the lake. Samehada wrapped around kisame's arm as he chuckles, "Yes continue to struggle.. The more you do.. The stronger I get" he sneers but slowly his body became more and more sharklike.
[Music: Kakuzu Theme]
Kakuzu keeps his eyes trained of the dust cloud as it dies down but his eyes narrow as a human size rock prison emerged, before shattering and revealing naruto. Naruto spits some dirt on the ground and grins, "You wanna try again but First a retort" he shouts and vanishes, to appear above the winged beast. Naruto drives his sword into the beast and crashes them to the dirt, "Ice-Earth Dragon Dance" he shouts, as ice spikes erupt out the beast and shatters it mask. The beast starts to fall apart but one of the bipeds moves, "Raiton: Gian" kakuzu shouts. Naruto moves but grimaces as a the lightning spear grazes his side, "So you can bleed" kakuzu shouts, slamming a punch to naruto's face. Naruto skids to halt and clutches his wound as blood trickles but it glows a pale green and heals, "Hoh.. You are strong.. Not many can say they wounded the Triple-Bounty S-class man.. However that was a free one" he states and licks some off his blood.
"Katon: Zukokku" kakuzu shouts and the demonic tiger spews a huge flame along the ground. Naruto sprints forward into a full spin, "Ice-Wind Dragon Dance" he shouts, sending a cyclone of frozen wind and creating a storm like explosion. Naruto launches from the smoke to cleave the beaked biped in half and cuts it to pieces as he slides on the dirt, "Bakudō #63.. Sajō Sabaku" he shouts, launching the chain at the tiger and pulling it forward.
"Lightning-Flame dragon Dance" naruto adds, obliterating the tiger. Kakuzu growls in his throat as the last of his creatures lands next to him and he forces if back into his body, "Now you're the last and It will be the true Shukuchi" naruto shouts, vanishing. Kakuzu raises his left arm but only for it to fly in the air and a blade pierces his back, "Darkness-Flame Dragon Dance" a voice coldly hisses. Kakuzu's whole body erupts in flames but a smile forms, "Finally a demon to kill me" he thought, the flames consuming him. Naruto watches the ashes blew in the wind as a bubble was making its way to him, "B?!.. Alright let's do this" he thought, launching skyward.
[Music: Bleach OST - Stand Up Be Strong]
Konan skids to a halt with her eyes flickering as hinata emerges from the crater, "Why are you trying to take Yugito-san" she states. Konan forms several paper kunai, "For peace.. Pein wishes to bring peace to the world and the Bijū will do it" she states. Hinata expertly dodges and fires several water bullets, "Do you not desire peace" konan states, dodging. Hinata slips into her gentle fist but konan's experience kept her at arms length, "I do but Not like this.. Killing people for no good reason.. Other than to claim peace is false" she remarks. Konan forms paper wings and flies skyward, "You are naïve.. That girl you protect.. Comes the same village that tried to kidnap a Hyūga simply for power.. Were they not acting for peace" she states, firing more paper shuriken. Hinata moves her hands with lightning speed, "True and It was I they tried to kidnap and because of it.. My Uncle died but true peace isn't brought about by simply fighting till no one can fight back.. If you gain all the Bijū.. What then... Will you use its power to conquer and subjugate those who will not follow" she firmly states. Konan freezes in her spot, "Nagato always said peace comes through pain but.. Won't pain cause more anger" she thought and slowly lands but shook her thoughts clear. Hinata focuses her chakra to her fists at her side, slowly it engulfed her fists and forms two blue guardian lion shapes.
"Jūho Sōshiken" hinata shouts, charging konan. Konan narrowly dodges as hinata shatters the spot she was in, "Why is she so powerful.. Is her conviction that strong.. No I can't waiver" konan thought. Hinata leaps up and launches down narrowly grazing konan but the older woman felt it, "It drains Chakra?!.. I need to be cautious" she thought, dodging hinata's fists. Hinata notices the wavering in konan's eyes as she dodges her fists.
"Do you doubt this Pein now.. Have I shown you that peace can be achieved through other means" hinata shouts, grazing the woman's chest. Konan flies skyward again, "I can't fight her like this.. She is infuriating.. I will need more time to strategize" she thought and created several paper bombs. Hinata kicks back as the bombs exploded, "Konan-san" she thought as the smoke clears. Hinata turns back to yugito and saw a large dark skin man with blond cornrows and a beard, "The Raikage" she thought.[music end]
-Scene Break-
B continues to dodge kisame as he tries to find the border of the bubble, "This situation is not Hunky Dory.. He won't get me Sorry" he thought. The hachibi groans, "Stop rapping B and think.. This bubble is moving as he does.. You keep moving and he will catch you.. This is his domain" he shouts. B quickly spits out a large amount ink into the water but it was useless as kisame attacks him from all side but it conceals someone above. Naruto stands atop the bubble as the ink covers him and zetsuei starts wail, "Dragonstrike" he shouts, driving the blade into the bubble. Kisame jerks as the bubble shudders, "What is This?!" he thought, as the bubble explodes. B slams hard into the ground as kisame lands and he sees naruto behind him, "So you killed Kakuzu but thanks to the eight-tails.. I'm stronger than ever" he states, returning to normal. Kisame swings samehada wide but naruto catches it with his barehand, "Hahaha.. That was foolish" he says but jerks as naruto is unharmed. Naruto grins as he pushes samehada back, only to narrowly cut off kisame's hand.
"I could use a guy Like you in my group but somebody wants to say hello" naruto says and vanishes as raikage moving with lightning speed, "B" he shouts. B gets to his feet and summons his chakra, "Right-o" he shouts. Kisame starts to move but a yellow chain ensnares him, "You?!" he shouts and seeing naruto with a smirk.
"Double Lariat" B and the raikage shout, taking off kisame's head but naruto plants it to a rock with his sword. The raikage stares at naruto as he pulls his sword free and sets kisame aflame.
"So you're the man on everyone's lips these days.. Mitsuomi Kiriyu" ei states. Naruto lights a cigarette as hinata and yugito arrive, "That I am and I come in peace to talk some peace" he says, with a puff. B approaches naruto but ei grabs his head, "B.. How many times have I told you not to wander off" he shouts. Ei then glares at yugito, "And for you not to follow him" he shouts and she flinches. Naruto snorts and ei turns him, "So what peace do you want" he states. Naruto took a slow drag, "Well.. An offer of alliance with Kiri.. Spring Country.. Suna and destroying Iwa but let's talk shop elsewhere" he states. Ei pulls B along, "Fine follow me" he shouts and B tries to escape. Naruto turns to hinata but she sees the wound, "What happened to the other one" he asks but notices her staring.
"I'm ok.. Let's go" naruto adds, as they took off.
"Hinata-san forced her to run" yugito interjects and naruto chuckles.
"Well that's my Hime" naruto shouts, as they pick up speed. The group quickly made their way back to Kumogakure and directly to ei"s office after B escapes at the gate. Three people were waiting in the office, first was a woman with brown skin and light grey hair, dressed in a long-sleeved, high-collared dress shirt and skirt. The second was fairly tall, dark-skinned man with a slightly bulbous nose and shaggy white hair which covers his left eye, dressed in a high-collared, sleeveless uniform with loose fitting pants, bandages on his wrists and a flak jacket of a Kumogakure shinobi. The third was a young man with short blond hair and dark eyes, wearing a sleeveless black shirt with a white flak jacket, black forehead protector black, elbow-length arm-guards, the red and white Kumogakure shin-guards along with a pair of sandals. Ei plops in his chair as naruto remains standing and hinata sits in a chair.
"Now as I was saying.. I wanna form an alliance with Kumo.. I don't expect you just to say yes but think about this.. If Hinata and I hadn't arrived.. Those Akatsuki might have taken them before you arrived" he states. The imposing ei narrows his eyes, "What's to stop me from collecting the bounty on your head and the girl's" he states.
"Beacuse if you tried.. I would erase Kumo from the map.. You did hear what I did to Taki and Oto" naruto states and folds his arms. The two men were ready to move but ei stands, "Darui.. Shee hold on.. You are serious.. I can see it your eyes but what can you offer to form an alliance" he states. Naruto slips off his coat and approaches the desk, "How about an arm-wrestling contest Raikage Ei-sama.. If you win.. You get me and Hinata to do with as you see fit but If I win.. You agree to join my alliance no matter my terms" he says and leans on the desk. Ei smirks seeing the battle scars on naruto's arms, "I admire your bravado Kid" he says, slipping off his coat.
"Mabui.. Be our ref" ei adds. Naruto slips off his left glove and places his hand at the ready, "I'm ready.. Shall we commence" he says and ei locks his own with naruto's hand. Hinata clutches his coat as mabui places her hand above theirs, "Ready.. Go" she states and ei's lightning aura flares. Papers fly and the windows crack but naruto stays firm with his right arm behind his back. Ei starts to gain the advantage but the smirk never leaves naruto's face, "This guy's got chops lasting this long with the Raikage" shee notes but darui looks closer.
"This guy is just using his arm.. The Raikage is using his free arm for leverage but he hasn't" darui thought. Ei pushes naruto's hand closer to the table as it starts to crack, "Tsuyoi but I don't lose" he thought, creating a small gap in their hands. However naruto moves his right to the table and his left flexes, to slam the ei's hand down and shatters the table. Everyone is in silence but most of all was ei, "Even with my speed.. He actually beat me" he thought and gets to his feet.
"Well Ei-sama.. It seems I am the victor.. So now will you listen to my terms" naruto states and ei nods. Naruto sits down across ei with the broken desk between them, "My terms are simple.. Very soon my group and I will Crush Iwa.. I will you give three-fourths of everything.. Money.. Jutsu.. Whatever.. All you have do is Leave the Leaf to me and my group but if thats not enough. I'll sweeten the pot.. I'll even take care the Akatsuki" he explains. Ei rubs his beard, "So for Kumo to ally with Kiri.. Suna and Spring country.. Is simply leaving the Leaf to you and you alone" he states.
"Yes.. I have personal reasons for you to leave the Leaf to us.. As for the Akatsuki its a benefit to us all.. This way no one will be after your brother and his young friend.. So it's a win-win" naruto states. Ei slowly stands with a nod, "I will bring it up to our council.. Until then you are to remain here in Kumo" he states, as his guards and mabui follow him out. A few minutes later a trio people came to escort to a room, the first was a busty blonde with blue eyes and straight blonde hair framing her face, wearing low-cut outfit which displays her sizeable cleavage, with mesh armor underneath, a short skirt and red hand guards, high boots and what appears to be a modified Kumogakure flak jacket that covers her stomach only, similar to a girdle. The second is a young dark-skin kunoichi with long spiky red hair and amber eyes, wearing a long short-sleeved dress with frilly edges complete with the Kumogakure flak jacket, two simple yellow earrings, fishnet stockings, thigh-high boots with white soles and a forehead protector which she wears like a bandanna. The last is a young man with a lollipop in his mouth dressed in overlong shirt with a hood, with red bandage hand guards, shin guards and a black forehead protector along with a Kumogakure flak jacket.
"I'm Samui.. This is Karui and Omoi.. Raikage-sama wants you stay tonight and he will give you his answer tomorrow" the blonde states. Naruto picks up his jacket and both bow, "Of course.. We are at his mercy" he states follows with hinata at his side. Samui takes point with karui and omoi behind them, "So that's him huh.. The Triple-Bounty S-class man.. Oh man.. What if he snaps and I have to fight him or worst" he mutters but karui smacks him.
"Keep down.. He is just a strong guy.. Besides he saved B-sama and Yugito.. We owe him that much" karui says and mitsuomi softly smiles.
-Konohagakure-
"HOW COULD YOU HIDE THIS FROM ME?!.. YOUR DAIMYO?!.. ABOUT NARUTO UZUMAKI" the fire daimyo shouts. Sasuke stood with the members of the council as the Lord stood with his bodyguards. Koharu moves forward with a bow, "He was traitor.. He tried killing Uchiha-sama" she states. The daimyo glares at sasuke, "No.. You had a shinobi executed to appease this pampered.. Child" he shouts.
"Daimyo-sama" homura starts but the Lord raised his hand.
"I will hear no more your lies... Over the last Six months I've learned from my good friend the Wind Daimyo as well as the Lords and Lady of Wave.. Water and Spring.. That you executed him for simply doing his duty.. The son of our famed Hero the Yondaime Hokage" he states. The room devolves into crushing silence from everyone as the council were in abject shocked, "Daimyo-sama.. That is impossible.. The Yondaime had no children" koharu says but the Lord lifts a birth certificate. Koharu took the paper from him and reads it but a frightened gasp escapes her lips, nearing dropping the paper. Shikaku Nara took it and carefully skims through the paper, "This is indeed authentic and this is the Sandaime's signature.. Asuma will you confirm" he states. Asuma approaches with a puff of smoke and looks it over, "It's his alright" he says and shocked gasps fill the room. The fire Daimyo remains silent and sees the panicked looks forming but the Uchiha remains stoic.
"These facts will be made public.. Now I see why my counterparts keep tight reigns on their Shinobi villages.. I allowed the sons of many great families to die.. I allowed the symbol of the Hokage be ousted.. But no more.. I will continue to fund this village but I Shudder to think what happens when this truth sees the light of day" he states and leaves with his bodyguards. A chilling silence filled the room as civilian side of the council murmur but the majority not caring and the shinobi side was beyond shocked.
"This.. This is preposterous.. That demon was the son of our Yondaime" homura spat. Tsume quickly grabs the older man by the collar, "You mean to tell me my son died on that mission with the Yondaime's son and you kept it from us" she hisses.
"That was an S-class secret on pain of death.. The truth was never be revealed.. Your son should've been honored to die for Uchiha-sama.. All of them" koharu interjects. Tsume bares her teeth and pushes homura back, "And you.. I've held my tongue for Three Fucking Years but No more you Spoiled Brat.. Our sons gave their lives for you and you've Doomed us all.. Our own Daimyo now wants nothing to do with our village.. What's to stop this Mitsuomi Kiriyu from attacking us.. He took Tsunade.. Kakashi and Hinata with ease.. Took down two Jōnin and Chūnin teams and Killed Danzō.. Not to mention the Three S-class Missing-nin" she shouts and for it got a sword to her stomach. Sasuke has a firm scowl and a tight grip on his sword, "I won't kill you Bitch.. Because your daughter and the Hyūga heiress are heading to broker a deal with Kumo" he hisses, pulling free. Shikaku and chōza catch tsume, "You Bastard" the large man shouts but inoichi and several ANBU surround them.
"Inoichi what are you doing" shikaku said, holding tsume's wound. Inoichi shook his head, "I'm doing this for Ino.. That man has took away my little girl's voice.. Uchiha-sama will do right by her" he states. Tsume grits her teeth with a glare, "You're only concerned with her baring him a litter" she hisses, coughing up some blood. Sasuke flicks the blood on them, "Get her medical attention and lock them up like Tsunade as traitors.. Once we crush this Kiriyu.. You will be executed like him" he orders. Sasuke walks off with the elders and remaining council as the others give themselves up. However all of them are completely unaware of a devious smile in the shadows of room.
-Scene Break-
Sakura sits in the Hokage office as sasuke slams the door open, "What's wrong Sasuke-kun" she asks. Sasuke places his sword on the table, "The Fire Daimyo has finally grown some balls" he spat. Koharu rubs her forehead, "How could Daimyo-sama gotten his hands on those documents" she states. Homura adjusts his glasses as he approaches the desk, "Uchiha-sama.. We must be prepared for the coming backlash.. I suggest having the village prepared for war and contacting Iwa and having them do the same" he notes. Sasuke waves his hand and both elders rush off, "Sasuke-kun" sakura starts but an Anbu appears in the room. Sasuke turns to her with a glare, "What do you have Neko" he says. Neko remains kneeling with her head down, "Nothing Sir.. No record of Mitsuomi Kiriyu exists before him arriving to save the Kazekage.. There is no way to confirm or deny his story without a significant expedition pass the northern borders" she relays.
"However his movements after the incident in Wave were sporadic.. He was sighted in Kiri or someone matching his description.. Then the incident in Taki and sporadic movements over the last six months but most recently seen on the border of Kumo with the Hyūga girl" neko adds. Sasuke slams his fist in the table causing a long crack, "It's as if he reads minds.. No matter.. Neko call back your teams and prepare for war" he states and neko shunshins away.
"What now Sasuke-kun" sakura says, letting him sit and sitting in his lap. Sasuke runs his bandaged left hand along her eyes, "I will not be denied.. Sakura will you do anything for me" he says and sakura quickly nods.
"Then I will give you my former right eye and when the time comes my left as well.. You will become an elite and surpass that witch Tsunade as the most powerful Kunoichi" sasuke adds. Sakura caresses his cheek, "Yes Sasuke-kun.. Do with me whatever you wish.. I am yours Forever" she purrs. The door suddenly bursts open with a haggard messenger, "Uchiha-sama.. Suna has dissolved our alliance and joined forces with Kiri" he shouts. Sakura nearly falls as sasuke stands, "What?!" he snaps.
"The Kazekage said.. No longer will you dishonor my brother in arm's memory" the man adds. Sasuke unleashes some killer intent, making the man sweat profusely with wide eyes but closes the gap and grabs the man with his bandaged hand, before snapping his neck with ease. Sakura saunters over and wraps her arms around his waist, "Mmm.. I love when you kill someone" she purrs. Sasuke clasps her hand, "Mark my words Sakura.. I will Kill anyone who gets in my way" he sneers.
-Kumogakure-
Naruto stands with ei and B as they wait for the emissaries from Konoha, with hinata well hidden in henge on balcony with ei's assistant mabui with his guards darui and shee. Ei had already agreed to his deal, to take three quarters of the spoils when mitsuomi and the Rokukage crush Iwa. Once this business was done naruto and ahri would head to Ame to finish off the Akatsuki, freeing the other bijū and sending them away. Naruto adjusts his glasses as three individuals and several dogs approach but he glances up to see hinata with a slight fail of her henge. The first is a young woman with pupil less brown eyes and violet hair in spiky fanned ponytail, dressed in a mesh bodysuit to her knees, a black trench coat with red flames and orange miniskirt. The second has several dogs with her, dressed in chūnin flak jacket with biker shorts and naruto recognizes the inuzuka markings on her cheeks and her brown hair in a ponytail. The last was the youngest and resembles hinata, dressed in a regal kimono and her hair pinned up. The group was about to declare themselves but the biggest of the dogs launches himself at naruto and pins him to the ground.
"Akamaru.. What are you doing?!.. A thousand apologizes" the inuzuka shouts, as she approaches but finds akamaru was licking naruto and barking happily. Naruto laughs as he rubs his fur, "Akamaru.. That's enough.. I missed you too" he croons.
"Hana I've never seen your dogs take to someone so easily.. Especially Akamaru" the hebi girl states. Hana rubs her chin as akamaru nuzzles naruto, "I don't know Anko" she says but inside, "The only one for Akamaru to be that affectionate with was the Naruto Uzumaki" she thought. Anko as well felt something familiar about naruto but ei clears his throat, "Why are you here Konoha-ninja" he states.
"Hai.. I am Hana Inuzuka.. This is Anko Mitarashi and this is Hanabi Hyūga.. We were sent by Sasuke Uchiha to ask you to form an alliance with us and Iwa" hana states but naruto saw the look of disgust on anko's face.
"What does the Teme really want and be honest.. I'll know if you're lying" naruto says, forming a cheeky grin. Anko and hana glare but look to ei and he wanted truth as well, "He wants us to sell our bodies to you as trophies and baby makers" anko snaps. Hanabi was visibly shocked as was her sister above, "What?!.. My father wouldn't do something so horrid" hanabi states. Hana sighs softly with a nod, "I'm sorry but it is true.. My mom told me.. After Hinata became a Missing-nin with him.. The Uchiha made the suggestion of giving you to the Raikage and your father agreed" she explains. Ei was actually appalled by Hana's statement, "Does he take me for a brute only concerned with power.. Yes I did seek the Byakugan but my brother B and this man showed me that true strength is earned not stolen" he states. Naruto was a bit taken back by the large man, "You do have that effect on people.. In both lives you've showed true strength comes from within and working hard" zetsuei comments. Anko scoffs and folds her arms, "What do we do know.. If we go back.. We're as good as dead" she states. Hinata leaps down and drops her henge, "We can take you somewhere safe" she states. Hana and anko gasp, "Nee-sama" hanabi says and rushes to her sister.
"So you really are the Triple-bounty S-class man.. Pretty impressive" anko says with a smirk. Hana slowly approaches naruto, "I would like speak with you privately" she whispers and mitsuomi nods, "Raikage-sama.. I would like speak to the Leaf-ninja privately" he states. Killer-B starts rapping and ei grabs him, "B.. How many have I told you" he shouts, dragging him off. Naruto beckons for them to follow him to their room as everyone files in and naruto erects his barrier.
"Now what do you want know" naruto said, taking a seat near the balcony. Akamaru plops next to him and rests his head on naruto's lap.
"That and Hinata.. She wouldn't leave with a total stranger unless you had some connection to a certain blond Gaki" anko interjects. Naruto groans with a slap on his forehead, "Mendokusē.. Dattebayo.. Well how come that Teme hasn't realized it yet" he says and looks up, seeing all three gawking.
"You mean.. You really are Naruto Uzumaki but how?!" hana shouts. Naruto face-palms with a sigh, "Someone on high deemed it necessary for me to return but like this" he says. Hanabi was shocked and looks to her older sister, "Your wish came true Nee-sama" she says and hinata slowly nods.
"Ok what now we can't go back to Konoha but my mother is there" hana interjects. Naruto lights a cigarette with a slow drag, "That will be a problem.. Through special means.. I know that your mother.. Shikamaru and Choji's dads were locked up" he says. Hana gasps sharply and quickly stands but naruto grabs her shoulder, "If you go back now.. You'll die for sure.. Don't worry I'll handle this" he says but hana slaps him.
"Have you forgotten.. My little brother died.. You.. Neji.. Choji and Shikamaru also died because of them" hana shouts. Naruto's face slowly became serious, "Don't you think I know that.. He murdered my friends.. He harmed those I love and I Swear I'll make him suffer the Worst and Most Painful Death Ever" he said and hana calms down.
"Naruto-kun.. We should head back to Harugakure" hinata comments, stroking her sister's hair. Naruto drops his barrier and heads for the door, "Samui.. Can you call the Raikage for us" he says. The others saw the door open and the busty blonde peers in, "Whatever" she says and excuses herself. A few minutes pass and ei came through the window and woke hanabi, "Ei-sama.. I will take these Leaf-ninja with me and I ask you to delay your answer to Konoha by three days.. I leave the reason for the refusal in your hands however you wish to say it.. Also four days after that have your strongest teams ready to pick up the scraps of Iwa" he explains. Anko and hana gasp, "Gaki you're going after Iwa.. How?!" anko comments. Naruto turns with a cheeky smirk, "Skillz" he states. Soon B and mitsuomi fist bump at the gate and traded some rap secrets as everyone got ready to leave.
"Well Ei-sama.. I wish you continued prosperity and I will see you on the field of battle as comrades" naruto said, extending his fist. Ei raises his own, "To you as well.. Mitsuomi Kiriyu" he says, bumping fists. Hinata and others bow to ei, before following naruto at a moderate pace, with hanabi on akamaru.
"I wanted to ask. What is in Harugakure.. Is it a new village.. I knew of Yukigakure" hana asks. Naruto glances her way with a puff of smoke, "Jiraiya is the Kage there and he can shelter you until we deal with Iwa as well as Sasuke and the council.. Before you ask.. The civilians won't be harm.. I'll give full warning before our attack" he explains. Anko wasn't paying attention to the conversation but to his figure, "Man what I wouldn't give" she thought but felt eyes on her and looks to see hinata with a glare. Anko looks between the two and a smirk forms, "Hoh.. She has claim on him.. Her and two others from what I can smell" she thought and gives a thumbs up, before mouthing lucky. Naruto felt the garganta opening half mile ahead of them, "We're stopping up ahead" he shouts. The group came to a rocky outcropping and a woman with red hair and an exact duplicate of mitsuomi stood, "The group has grown" the woman quips.
"Hello Ahri-chan and Kaze-kun" hinata greets. Ahri pulls down her hood, "How did it go with the Raikage" she asks.
"He'll play ball I gave him three quarters of the spoils from Iwa and he'll leave Konoha to us" naruto explains. Ahri pats his chest and winks at hinata, "So we finally get play but we still need one to make six" she states.
"We'll get that in Ame.. If Hinata's observation is correct" naruto says. Ahri glances to hinata and back to naruto, "She's never led you astray.. So I'll trust my fellow sister-wife" she comments. Hana and anko balk but the hebi hime smirks, "So it's like that huh" she insinuates but naruto covers ahri's mouth.
"Kaze will escort you Harugakure.. Hinata tell the others to be ready and to start preparing for Iwa in seven days" naruto states. Hinata kisses his cheek and everyone follows them with a million questions, while a garganta opens behind naruto and ahri. The fox turns to naruto with a smirk, "Ready to seeing the village of perpetual rain" she says and both leap inside.
-Ame-
The garganta opens as lightning dances as the rain fell, "This truly a dreary place" ahri comments, pulling up her hood. Naruto looks around and saw the steampunk like city surrounded by a huge lake, "How you wanna play this Ahri" he comments.
"I say loud.. They know we're coming" ahri said but sees his hand shaking and a smile.
"Finally a challenge.. He'll be the one" naruto says, sprinting across the lake and ahri following. Konan stands on a balcony as the rain fell in sheets, "Konan.. The nine-tails is here.. Pein-sama says to prepare" zetsu states. Konan looks over the rain and follows zetsu, "Nagato.. Is this truly the peace we seek" she thought. Tobi steps out the shadows, "So this is how the Akatsuki will end" he thought. Tobi continues through numerous halls till he reaches a huge chamber below the city, inside was the massive multi-eyed statue and four eyes open. Near the statue was a contraption and sickly looking red hair man with ring like purple eyes, "Why are here Tobi" he states.
"I came to be your guard Pein-sama.. Since Konan is going fight them with your six" tobi states. Pein turns attention back to his coming opponents as outside six figures scatter through the city. Naruto and ahri enter the city with little resistance but numerous people hailed the Kami and Tenshi would strike them down. Konan lands on a long pipe as a man stood with long orange hair in a high ponytail and piercings on his face and the akatsuki cloak, "Well" he states.
"It's him and the Nine-tails.. What will you do Pein" konan asks. The man looks back, "Thanks to your failure.. I must face him and I will Kill him" he states, leaping off. Konan follows suit but sent a paper for him to find naruto and ahri. Naruto and ahri leap from building to building, "Ahri I want you to hang back.. Try to corner the woman.. Keep her occupied and convince her to join us" he states, as they leap into a corridor to a huge opening. Ahri scoffs with a nod, "Be careful.. He has the Rinnegan.. So Tsunade and Hinata will kill me if you die" she states. Naruto enters through the opening with numerous pipes everywhere and is met by numerous papers but he vanishes as it covers his jacket.
"Clever Tactic but I'm not here to fight you.. Where's Pein" naruto says, as konan forms from the paper. Konan held a firm stare, "Why do you wish to stop peace.. Why are you trying to Topple Kami" she says. Naruto fiddles with his sword and a rub of his chin, "Why are you willing to die for a coward like him.. Everyone in this Fucking city.. People hail that Kami will strike me down" he says and raises his arms apart.
"Well.. I'm waiting Or are you gonna do it.. Tenshi" naruto adds. Konan slowly lifts off the ground as wings form from paper using her legs and cloak, "I will Kill you.. Our God commands it" she says and sends her paper like blades. Naruto dodges with a hair's breadth, "So you're willing to throw your life away for someone who doesn't have the Gall to fight me.. I would hate to kill you.. Why not join my Rokukage.. Help me stop the Uchiha and Iwa from bringing death to everyone" he says, drawing his sword.
"So this the demon trying to invade Kami's territory" a voice states. Naruto glances left and sees a man, "So finally in the mood are ya.. Alright Bakudō #30.. Shitotsu Sansen" he states, moving his hand like triangle. Konan gasps as she pinned to a set of pipes by her arms and waist. Ahri emerges from the opening as mitsuomi fully turns, "You look different from before but the eyes are the same" he notes. Ahri moves near konan as mitsuomi slicks back his hair, "Well little lady you and I will do some talking while the boys play" she comments.
"The Nine tails as well.. You can not stop me for I am Pein.. Kami" pein declares. Naruto chuckles as he clutches his face, "Well Kami.. A devil stands before you.. Come Strike me down" he shouts. Pein slams his palms together, "Kuchiyose no Jutsu" he says and a large crab appears and shoots foam but naruto somersaults as the crab dives into the foam and comes after him.
"Awaken.. Zetsuei" naruto shouts and drives the blade into the crab, causing it to explode in smoke and the foam to vanish. Naruto launches through the smoke to impales pein into a pipe, "Some Kami" he croons but pein grabs his blade.
"You are but a man.. I am Kami.. My word is absolute and through Pain.. I have achieved much and I will End all War in this world" pein states.
"Is that why you're taking My Siblings?!" ahri shouts. Pein glances her way, "Through them I will End all War.. They will create the ultimate weapon.. How would you end wars.. You are a Bijū and you devil.. How would you end all wars" he states. Naruto pushes the blade further, "Peace through violence is not a way to end war.. I've seen enough to know that.. You think by using the Bijū as weapon will end all war.. Bakabakashī" he states.
"When a weapon like that is unleashed.. Many will die and they will become scared and all will know Pain.. That fear will cause wars to stop and True Peace will reign through Pain" pein states. Naruto jerks and pulls free to kick back as another summon appears, "Hoh.. Invisible huh.. Well let's kick this fight off" he shouts. The summon swallows pein as they become invisible but mitsuomi smirks and looks to the hole in the ceiling, "Zetsuei.. Gonna need your ears for this.. Back me up" he thought. Naruto raises his sword with the hilt to his shoulder and the blade pointed up as his eyes closed. Pein watches from above, "He is trying to focus his senses for any movement.. In that case" he thought. An explosion erupts above naruto as a three-headed dog summon rushes down, "Wind Dragon Dance" he shouts, launching upward. However the dog spilts into three to dodge the attack, "Tricky Bastard" naruto shouts, shooting higher and halts on a pipe as blue lightning surges on his blade.
"Dragonstrike" naruto shouts, swinging down. The wailing dragon charges the dogs but as it died, more were created as the pipes burst. Naruto tsks and shoots through the opening into the city above, "Like a fucking Hydra" he thought. Ahri watches them leave and turns to konan, "He can not defeat Pein.. He is Kami" the origami mistress states.
"Then you have no idea about Mitsuomi.. Pein claims he knows pain and that's why he's Kami.. Right but Mitsuomi knows True pain.. Hated for his Very existence and nearly killed more times than he can count.. Your Pein will defeat him.. No.. Pein will only allow Mitsuomi to reach his true power and he'll show Pein who the real God is" ahri states. Konan glares at the fox, "You are a bijū.. Yet you speak like you have feelings for this Mitsuomi" she states. Ahri softly smiles with a cluck of her tongue, "I do and you have feeling for this Pein person.. That's why you're fighting for him.. However would he care if you died" she replies and konan glares.
[Music: Akatsuki Theme - Naruto ost]
Naruto moves with cheetah speed as the dog summon with a dozen heads gives chase, "He's watching to your left.. Ten-o'clock" zetsuei comments. Naruto drops down to a long hallway and the dog follows, "That's right doggie follow your chewtoy" he thought, speeding up. Mitsuomi skids down a hall and turns with his cero charging, as the dog rounds the corner before being obliterated. Pein arrives to the clearing smoke, "He escaped" he says but turns as naruto launches down. However it was a shadow clone as naruto skids to a halt, "Che" he shot but a loud caw catches his attention. A large bird shoots down and slams into the ground and throws naruto hard with the shockwave as it dispels. Naruto gets to his feet with a spit of dirt, "This is odd.. All he does is summon.. If he is so powerful.. Why only summon" he thought but smirks.
"Alright.. Let's crank it up" naruto says, flaring his reiatsu to third seat and closes his eyes again.
"Zetsuei you hear him" naruto thought. Zetsuei nods, "Hai.. He's close.. Right above" she replies. Naruto grins and vanishes to drive his blade into the chameleon, "Ice Dragon Dance" he shouts, causing pein to escape as the chameleon freezes and dispels. Pein lands and slams his palms again, "Kuchiyose no Jutsu" he states but two people appear, dressed like him with one long hair and the other with tight ponytail but chubbier face. However naruto's eyes narrow as both have the Rinnegan as well, "All same again.. It must be his thing.. Neither look him again" he thought and slips into his stance with his sword pointed upwards. The long hair moves but naruto cracks him with kick to face, sending him back to the others.
"Darkness Dragon Dance" naruto shouts, sending the black swipes but the chubbier one moves and blocks his attack. naruto lands with a tsk but leaps up with his sword sparking, "Lightning Dragon Dance" he shouts but the chubbier actually absorbs it. The long hair moves behind naruto but he slips behind with his sword aimed, however the long hair blocks without looking. Naruto kicks back and lands on the wall but he launches at pein from his blind spot but he summons a panda and blocks without looking as well.
"It's the others.. Every time you move.. One is watching.. Somehow they see what the other sees" zetsuei comments. Naruto smirks softly as he flicks his hair, "Now this it.. The one to do it" he thought and vanishes to put some distance. Mitsuomi races through a pipe with a smirk, "So they see what the others sees.. Kidō is useless and the Dances too.. So its all about skill this time" he muses. The three move in unison as naruto comes to halt in a huge hall, "Now let's rock" naruto shouts, sprinting forward but he suddenly vanishes.
"Flame Dragon Dance" naruto shouts, from behind. The chubbier one turns to absorb but naruto is now in front of the other two, "One down.. One blind and that leaves you" he shouts. Pein jerks and his chest opens again but naruto cleaves the blind one's head off as the chubbier one turns to have his chest blown open by a cero. Naruto skids to a halt as the three fall to the ground, "Whew.. Now to find the leader" he muses.
"You easily drop you guard Devil" a voice remarks. Naruto turns to a barrage of missiles with a sudden detonation and throws him through a wall, into the lake with a skid. Blood trickles down his left arm from his shoulder and his right side, "Another one?!" he thought. However six people appear from the opening and he recognizes the one in the center, "In attendance the Six paths of Pein" the one with a hood declares.
[Music: Girei - Naruto ost]
Naruto glances between the six, "All six have it and the one in the middle is the one I saw in that cave.. And they somehow revived the three I killed.. Now this will be tricky and I can't summon the boys to make it even.. However it may be time to finally kick it to the max" he thought. Naruto points his sword at the middle one, "So I take you are the real Pein" he shouts. The middle one raises his arms, "We are all Pein" he says and all six launch themselves. Naruto flares his reiatsu to second seat creating a huge ripple as he parries their attacks, "Come on" he shouts, moving towards the real pein. Pein raises his hand and sends naruto into the wall, "What the Fuck was that?!" he thought, falling into the water. Naruto launches from the water and through one pein to embed him in a wall and thrusts up.
"This guy is already dead.. All of them" zetsuei states. Naruto jerks and narrowly dodges two attacks, "Then that explains how he took my attack earlier and how they revived them" he thought. Naruto lands on a piece of rock as the five surround him, "So Pein.. Kami whatever.. You move the dead huh.. Well I guess I need to help you move one" he states, his reiatsu starting to rise and surround him, causing the wind to pick up. Inside the hall ahri felt this force starting to bare down on them, "Naruto" she thought. However konan falls from the kidō breaks, "Nagato" she thought and disappears. Ahri quickly goes after her, "Foolish woman" she thought but deep underground pein and tobi felt the force above.
"Masaka.. This is nothing I felt before" tobi thought and glances to pein, "I need to be ready" he thought. Pein has a firm scowl on his face, "I am Kami.. I must prevail" he thought. The five remaining pein on stare as the wind violently rages, "Sate.. Pein.. Feast your eyes on my true power.. The True power of a God of Death" naruto shouts and raises zetsuei, making the wind rise. Naruto grins as he slips zetsuei to his side, "The Reiatsu of a Captain.. Now" he thought, launching and creating a wave of water. Pein readies himself as naruto moves with lightning speed but he breaks left and drives sword through the chubbier pein, blowing off his right arm and a large part of his chest.
"No more absorbing my attacks.. Flame Dragon Dance" naruto shouts, setting him aflame. The hooded pein fires a barrages of missiles but naruto sprints along the wall and air but the hooded pein transforms his arms into blades, launching himself. The pair collide with minor shockwave but naruto smirks and points his free hand, "Ikkotsu" he shouts, destroying his head with a punch. Naruto grunts as the headless man drove a black rod in his leg as naruto erases him with his flame. Naruto pulls it free with a wince but another invisible force slams him through several walls. Another pein appear above to grabs his head but naruto snaps his limbs with his reiatsu and a cero to erase him. Naruto gets to his feet as the two peins stand above him, "Why do you persist.. You can not defeat Kami" the lead pain states.
"I persist because if you haven't noticed.. I've beaten four of your six paths" naruto says but vanishes, with his sword erupting from the other pein aimed for the lead pein. Pein raises his hand and the sword hits a wall, "Shinra Tensei" he recites. Naruto grunts but is thrown once again, however he notices something as he collides with a wall.
"Banshō Ten'in" pein states and naruto is pulled to him but slams hard to the ground.
"This is the Furthest anyone has ever pushed Pein but now it Ends" pein says, revealing a black rod. Naruto grins as his reiatsu cranks up and shatters the rod, throwing pein several feet with a skid.
"OI OI OI.. Now It's Time Let Er Rip" naruto shouts, getting his feet.
[Music: Rules of Nature (Platinum Mix) MGRR ost]
Naruto's reiatsu pulses in and out around his body as pein stares, "Well it pleases me to the First and I should thank you because.. You'll be the First to see" he states. Pein looks around as the wind picks again but the very air seems charged with energy. Naruto raises his sword the heavens, "Now see the power of a God of Death.. Bankai.. Kurai Heiki.. Zetsuei" he roars. Purple with black energy erupts from the blade as naruto's reiatsu flares violently. Ahri and konan halt in their tracks, "What.. What is Power?!" ahri thought. Nagato grits his teeth and tobi's eye flickers, "Such a Monstrous Power" he thought. A large blade peeks the debris cloud as it clears and pein saw a large scythe with the shaft black as night and a spike on the end. The upper half of the blade tinted with white, black and red but partially wrapped in black chain. Naruto spins his scythe and launches at pein but he kicks back and naruto quickly uses his blade to pull pein into a punishing liver-blow. Pein grunts but rams a rod through naruto's left shoulder, free himself and using Banshō Ten'in to pull a piece of wall. Naruto swings back to shatter the wall, "Shinra Tensei" pein shouts but a yellow chain wraps around his arm.
"What?!" pein shouts.
"Flame-Darkness Dragon Dance" naruto howls, swinging down. A huge explosion rips through the area engulfing both and sending debris nearly a quarter mile in the air. The dust cloud starts to clear as pein emerges from the dirt, his cloak gone and arm broken but he snaps it back. Naruto appears above with shirt gone and his scythe poised to reap but pein dodges and moves west. Naruto launches after him but pein slams his palms, "Chibaku Tensei" he shouts, tossing orb into the sky. Naruto skids to a halt as a bright light erupts and pieces of rock break and lift to coalesce into a ball, "What in the world?!" he says, as a piece lifts him. Naruto fires a cero but pein reflects it back and forces him to cleave it in half, as more and more pieces of rock form around the ball.
"It's like I'm in a Gravity Well" naruto shouts, slamming into the ball. Pein focuses more of his chakra, forcing more and more rock to cover naruto. Nagato pants heavily as blood runs from his nose, "It is done.. Now for the Nine-tails" he mutters but gasps. Pein notices cracks in the ball as suddenly black chains erupt from it to the ground and some latching to the rock orb, "What a chilling Will" he says. Black flames erupt from the chains as it starts to crack the ball, "Is that the Amaterasu" pein questions. A spear slams into the ground next to pein and he sees naruto launching from the rock, "He actually freed himself from Chibaku Tensei" pein shouts, kicking back. Naruto slams to ground with a smirk, "I'll admit you're strong Pein and by extension the one pulling your strings but I have job to do and you're in my way" he states, raising his hand and the scythe reforming but without the blade. Pein forms two rods, "I will not let you Win" he shouts, as both charge. Naruto swings the staff wide but pein blocks and thrusts his rod, however the former ninja catches it and sends him flying. Pein slides to halt but mitsuomi is inches from pein and thrusts the staff through him, "Lightning-flame Dragon Dance" naruto shouts, engulfing pein and throwing him several feet. Naruto drops to one knee as his bankai dispels, "Hah.. Hah.. Six for Six.. Now for the real Pein" he thought, getting to his feet. [song ends]
-Scene Break-
Nagato coughs up some blood as tobi stands before him, "The last Pein has fallen" nagato mutters. Tobi sighs softly, "It seems Kami has fallen" he remarks and suddenly pulls nagato's left eye out. Nagato screams as blood sprays, "Tobi what are you Doing?!" he shouts. Zetsu appears from behind but goes through tobi, "Pein-sama" he shouts but tobi sucks him in his eye.
"I'm claiming my right" tobi sneers. Nagato clutches his face, "Right?!" he shouts. Tobi removes his mask revealing a young man with the left side of his face disfigured, "My name is Obito Uchiha and with your eyes.. The Uchiha will reign supreme" he states.
"Nagato?!" konan shouts and obito returns his mask to his face. Obito turns with the eye in his hand as ahri reaches the chamber, "Konan-chan and the Nine-tails.. My oh my.. I almost had both.. Such a shame" he says and sucks himself into his eye. Konan rushes to nagato but he glares at ahri, "Konan all is not lost.. Capture the Nine-tails" he states.
"Wow.. Betrayal right to your face and you only think of your bullshit mission.. Man for someone with the greatest visual prowess.. You sure are Fucking Blind" a voice remarks. Naruto gingerly enters the chamber with the lead pein on his shoulder, "So the great hero staggers in" nagato shouts. Naruto scoffs as he drops pein, "Big talk from someone on the brink of death" he shot. Konan gets in front nagato as naruto approaches, "I will not let you hurt him" she shouts but naruto appears behind her.
"Your devotion to him is wasted.. He cares nothing for mortals.. His only concern is breaking the cycle of hate by killing everyone" naruto states.
"What of you.. You destroyed Oto.. Taki and you hate the Leaf.. So why are any different than me" nagato shouts. Naruto looks in his only eye, "I do hate the Leaf but Unlike you.. I'm not consumed by Hate" he shouts, activating tsukiyomi. Nagato freezes and everything melts away to numerous images swirling around him, "You see.. I have every right to Hate.. As Naruto Uzumaki.. I was hated for having the Nine-tails.. As Mitsuomi Kiriyu.. I was hated for my very existence.. So don't preach to me.. Nagato Uzumaki" mitsuomi states. Nagato gasps but he sees mitsuomi on one half and the other half was a blond hair young man with whiskers, "You're Naruto Uzumaki?!.. You were executed because of their Haterd" he states.
"You're right but unlike you.. I didn't let hate beat me to my knees.. I overcame it and gained strength and people to believe in me.. Like Jiraiya did in you.. You were once his student making you my Senior.. However you twisted his words to suit you.. Pain will Bring Peace.. Don't me make laugh.. To overcome Hate is to Believe in each other.. Help each other.. It may not happen overnight but It can Happen" naruto states.
"Simple Belief?!.. Humans will continue to Hate no Matter what they do.. All you and Sensei speak are empty words" nagato shouts, punching naruto in the face. Naruto shakes his head, "So you're angry at the world because He died.. They died.. Instead of growing strong to honor them.. You twisted his body to suit your needs.. What about Konan.. That woman was and is willing to die for you.. I say it again.. Her Devotion to you is wasted.. Have you forgotten so quickly that your eye was stolen by that guy.. I bet I know where its going.. To a spoiled Bitch who has never worked for anything in his Life.. So Wake Up and Help me" he states.
"Help?!.. You want My Help?!.. You came here to kill me.. You intend to destroy the Leaf and anyone in your path.. You overcame your Hate.. Laughable.. All these images show is someone driven by hate and madness" nagato shouts. The images shift to hinata, tsunade, ahri and a young woman with silver hair but all were declaring their conviction of belief in him.
"I do think like you.. The world is cruel and will beat you down if you let it.. However I've learned to focus my hate on those who truly deserve it.. Think about it.. Sasuke gets the Rinnegan.. What's to stop him from repeating what Hanzō did.. Inflict Suffering on everyone.. Konan included.. Would you see her Die because you are blinded by your own hate.. I will destroy those in my path but those who support a man like him" naruto shouts, as the images shows his execution and nagato saw the look on sasuke's face.
"I will never forgive him for what he did.. Killing me is one thing but he made my Hinata Suffer.. Someone I Love.. Someone who Loved me even though I was Dead.. I refuse to let him Spit on her resolve.. If there is Peace to come.. I'll Find it.. I will never Stop looking" naruto says, his eyes serious. Nagato gasps with a wide eye, "That's what I told Sensei" he says and naruto moves closer.
"Yes Sensei put those words to print and through you I was Given my Name.. Naruto" naruto states. The world around them shatters and nagato found himself back in the chamber with naruto before him.
"How can you guarantee.. You won't change.. How can you say.. You will endure" nagato shouts, shocking konan and ahri. Naruto sighs and glances to ahri, "I don't know what the future holds.. However I will believe in myself and those precious to me.. So I can Bring them Peace" he states. Nagato glances to konan then to mitsuomi, "Kōhai.. We shared the same Sensei.. You are a strange fellow.. You remind me of myself before I stopped believing in Sensei's words because I was weak but you.. You given me a future to believe in" he states and pulls his arms free.
"Konan.. Will you forgive me one last time.. Take my eye and use it to Help this man" nagato adds. Konan gasps and moves closer, "Nagato.. You can't do this to me.. Leave me all alone" she states. Nagato clutches his eye and pulls it free, "It's alright Konan.. I'm not long for this world but I can do one last Good thing" he whispers and a glow engulfs her body. Konan gasps as the Rinnegan forms in her right eye, "Nagato.. Please" she whispers, her voice breaking. Nagato coughs up more blood, "Konan.. I also gave you my knowledge and chakra.. Use it well.. My flower" he whispers and looks to naruto.
"Kōhai.. I leave her in your care.. I will not forgive you.. If she is harmed" nagato adds. Naruto smirks softly and places his hand on his chest, "You have my word Senpai" he states. Konan wraps her arms around nagato, "Konan.. If you see Sensei.. Tell him.. I'm.. Sorry" he whispers, slumping into her. Konan could no longer hold back her tears as she started sobbing.
"You actually changed him in the end" ahri comments. Naruto slowly nods as he approaches them, "And I won't let his sacrifice be in vain" he says, touching konan's shoulder. Konan turns with a glare and naruto looks her in the eye, "I don't expect you to trust me or even like me but I made him promise and I will keep it" naruto states. Konan got to her feet and wipes her tears, "If you don't.. I will kill you" she says and naruto pats his chest.
"I would feel bad if you didn't.. Welcome to the Rokukage.. Konan as the New Go" naruto says. Ahri stares curiously at the statue, "I'm here my brothers" she muses.
"We'll have destroy it to set them free huh" naruto states. Ahri glances back as konan approaches, "You will have to" she comments. Mitsuomi leaps atop the statue, "Ahri.. Can you make a clone and can it fire a Bijūdama" he shouts. Konan glances to the fox as she creates a clone but her gaze fell on the fallen pein and uses her paper to take the body.
"Now you two head to the surface and move away from the city.. This gonna get loud.. Ahri clone up here" naruto shouts. Konan follows ahri out the chamber but giving nagato one last glance, "Is the city abandoned Konan" ahri asks and she nods.
"Nagato told everyone to evacuate only Shinobi were here" konan replies. Naruto drops to one knee and places his palm flat on the statue, "Alright.. Charge up your blast and aim for the middle" he says and the clone nods, cranking up her yōki and hopping down. Naruto cranks back up to captain level and braces his left arm, "Just thirty more seconds" he thought. The clone forms the dense chakra as naruto closes his eyes, "Hadō #88.. Hiryū Gekizoku Shinten Raihō!" he shouts, his palm glows blue and the statue shudders. The statue groans as blue cracks form and naruto leaps off, "Now" he shouts. The clones fires the blast and dispels as it collides, from the outside ahri and konan reach pass the lake as the ground quakes. Konan turns as a huge pillar of flames erupts from the center, punching a hole through the clouds. Ahri senses her siblings freed and heads towards them followed by konan but they stop halfway in the lake. Four large animals stood before them, one a large turtle with a crab shell and three shrimp tails. A red and green gorilla with four spiked tails, a dolphin headed horse with five tails and lastly a bipedal slug with stubby limbs and six tails.
"Is that you Nee-sama" the horse asks. Ahri channels her yōki to form her tails, "Yes Kokuō.. Saiken.. Isobu and Son Gokū but I lost three of my tails after my death" she states. Gokū leans down with a chuckle, "Sucks for you Sis but you smell weird.. Your scent.. It's mixed with three others.. A male and two females and the male was the one to set us free" he states.
"Wow you got that from smelling her" a voice says and ahri sees naruto on gokū's head. Konan was a bit shocked by his behavior but ahri laughs, "That's my alpha only because I don't have all my tails" she comments.
"Ore.. He's super strong to beat Sissy" saiken chirps. Ahri flicks her fox ears, "He is.. He even saved.. Matatabi.. Shukaku.. Chōmei and Gyūki" she states. Naruto leaps down and bows, "It's pleasure to meet my girlfriend's brothers and it was no problem.. Considering I was her former jailer" he states. The four look between each other, "The Uzumaki boy that died.. Well Kami must be involved" isobu states.
"This will take you Home.. The others wanna remain with their partners" ahri comments, drawing her sword and slashing the air with two swipes. The four nod and file in not before giving ahri some chakra and shocking her as her three lost tails returned.
"Call it a thank you Sis" gokū states, as the void closes. Konan remains quiet and glances to mitsuomi as he lights a cigarette, "This man changed Nagato.. I will see this through for both our sakes" she thought, touching her stomach.
