(A/N :Sorry for the near month delay. My old computer broke down and crashed around the 18th of January and all the data to this fanfic was deleted in the process. I had to borrow my mothers computer to continue and rewrite everything but with only the time limit of 2 to 3 hours which caused this massive delay. The good news is that i have Chapter 43 and 44 almost completed and should take much shorter. )

3rd Person pov

Konoha is engulfed in another thunderstorm as rain pours down on the tattered and badly damaged village. Darkness descents on the village as people are scattered across the village badly injured from the chaotic waves of Reiatsu caused by the Shintachio and the Sannin which have caused remaining structures to collapse or blow deadly shrapnel into the troops.

East Konoha highlands

11:30 A.M. Tsunade is walking back to village after walking 5 miles westward from the battle site while barely having enough Chakra left in her body. Katsuyu is still latching herself onto the severely exhausted Hokage.

" Damn it , i only have enough Chakra to walk ! " Tsunade said to her slug.

" Hang on there, we need to get you to the hospital to restore you Chakra " Katsuyu said to her master.

" I don't have much longer before i start to age as a side effect of using Mitotic Regeneration " Tsunade stated as her hand starts to become wrinkly .

" Is that guy going to survive ? " Katsuyu asked.

" Not a chance in hell ! My Shisaigo Tengoku Tenshi( 死最後天国天使 Angel of Death Final Paradise ) combines the electricity in my body with my Chakra and your acid . The punch is enough to kill anything it touches either by the concussive force that would cause internal and external blunt force trauma or the burning damage from the acid and lightning. I hit him straight at the temple with the punch. He shouldn't even have a head at this point " Tsunade explained to Katsuyu.

All of the sudden she senses Jiraiya Chakra dipping rapidly.

" What's wrong Lady Tsunade ? " Katsuyu asked the Hokage.

" Jiraiya ... it can't be ! " Tsunade said shocked to sense Jiraiya dying.

" Can't be what ? " Katsuyu asked the Sannin.

" He's ... dying ! " Tsunade answered with tears in her eyes .

" What ? " Katsuyu asked.

" I can barely sense his presence... he must of lost his battle . I got to get there and save him ! " Tsunade shouted as she rushes over there but falls down on her face.

" Tsunade, you can't heal him at your current state. Once you used up Sōzō Saisei :Karada Saiken (創造再生身体の再建Creation Rebirth:Body Reconstruction ) and used Shisaigo Tengoku Tenshi( 死最後天国天使Angel of Death Final Paradise ), you lost the ability to heal. You need to get your Chakra synced up with Sakura, Ino and Shizune to recover your Chakra " Katsuyu explained to her master.

" Don't you have any Chakra to spare ? " Tsunade asked her.

" I'm at my limit as well , i used too much of it healing all the people within the village and keeping them safe as well as syncing with your body to use Katsuyu Taisenāmā (カツユ大戦アーマー Slug Queen War Armor ). I barely have any left just to keep you moving, I also used the last of my Chakra to convert all the people in need of air in their lungs into oxygen as well to save them " Katsuyu explained to Tsunade.

" Jiraiya has about 5 minutes to live, his Chakra level is dropping fast but given he's Kage level it would take awhile for him to lose his entire life-force. We need to rush to the hospital, get healed of my Chakra and use it to save Jiraiya . We have no time to waste Katsuyu " Tsunade said to Katsuyu as she rushes to Konoha.

Meanwhile 1 mile east of Konoha General Hospital

Naruto and Yoruichi clash attacks with each other when Shizune is awoken by Katsuyu.

" Shizune wake up ! " Katsuyu said to Shizune.

" What is it ? " Shizune asked .

" Tsunade needs you to meet her at the hospital " Katsuyu answered.

" Okay , i'll get there ! " Shizune replied as she heads to the hospital.

Meanwhile 3 miles south of the center of Konoha

Kisuke and Tessai head back to Squad 4 barracks when they sense Shunsui and Ukitake's presence.

" I can't sense Ukitake's spiritual power and i can only faintly sense Shunsui's spiritual power " Tessai said to Kisuke .

" I can only assume the worst case scenario in this situation " Kisuke stated.

" How powerful are these Shinobi to challenge even the Shintachio ? " Tessai asked .

" I'm not surprised at this point that they can hold their own against even the strongest Shinigami , the real question is whether the Shinobi are our real enemy or was this Aizen's clever ploy to trick us all into attacking an heavily fortified village and made a new enemy to divert us away from his plot " Kisuke explained to the dark skin ex Kidō Captain.

" If that's the case , we have a whole new mess in our hands " Tessai stated.

" We need to investigate just what the hell is going on here and find out what's really going on. I have a bad feeling we might be walking into a trap " Kisuke said to Tessai.

" Right, I'll go and aid Shunsui and Ukitake, you head into Squad 4 campgrounds and meet me there, once we get everything out of the way. We would check to see whether the Shinobi are truly the enemies " Tessai stated.

" I would love to try to call Yoruichi but the phones are fired. Ukitake's attack has caused an EMP pulse wave damaging every electronic within a 100 mile radius . Once i get back to the campground, i'll have to go back to my shop and Squad 12's barracks to get some backup tech for the campground " Kisuke explained to Tessai.

" Hopefully we can figure out whether this was a misunderstanding or not before it's too late " Tessai stated.

" I hope so, for all out sakes ! " Kisuke replied as Tessai and Kisuke part ways with each other.

Meanwhile at Squad 4 's campground

Kiyone and Sentarō struggle to fight off the attacking 200 Root members.

" These guys are pretty tough ! " Kiyone said to her co 3rd seat as she parries a slash from one of the root members.

" Too tough to be ordinarily Shinigmai, no wonder our ground forces are having a tough time against them " Sentarō stated as he blocks another slash from the root members.

Root members manage to take down 4 more Shinigmai with causal slashes raising the death count to 68 and leaving 196 injured leaving only 136 people left.

" There are too many injured people here ! " Kiyone stated as she struggles to fight off 3 Root members.

" We need to get them behind the wall ! " Sentarō said to her blonde co 3rd east.

" Then let's get serious , Swing Haomuchi Kaiten (刃を鞭を回転Spinning Blade Whip ) " Kiyone replied as her Zanpakutō takes the form of a whip with a disc-shaped blade with serrated edges.

" Smash Mokusei Sengotsuchi (木製戦後を槌 Wooden War Mallet ) " Sentarō chanted as his Zanpakutō takes the form of a giant two-handed wooden war mallet.

Sentaro manages to parry a two-handed slash from a Root member and use his massive hammer to shatter the Root members sword in half and kill the guy with one strike and another one with a horizontal smash . Two men charge at Sentaro from behind.

" I got this ! " Kiyone shouted as she extends her whip like blade to cut two Root members in half.

" I didn't need your help ! " Sentarō shouted at his friend.

" Yes you did, you were totally slipping ! " Kiyone said to her friend mockingly.

" Please, I'm way better than a little girl ! " Sentarō stated.

" I'm not a little girl, i'm a beautiful young woman " Kiyone replied.

" Please, you're too short to be a woman " Sentaro mockingly stated.

" Am not, you're just jealous that you can't make Ukitake truly happy with these lady charms . Men don't have the parts to please other men " Kiyone replied as another Root member comes at them.

" You're in our way ! " Sentarō and Kiyone shouted as they hit that Root member killing them with their Shikai.

However Sentarō is stabbed from behind by a Root member .

" Sentarō ! " Kiyone shouted as she sees her friend goes down only for 4 Root members grab Kiyone and disarm her of her Zanpakutō.

" Say goodbye little girl ! " said one of the Root members as one of them try to slash Kiyone but then Isane appears to block the strike.

" Leave my sister alone ! " Isane shouted in anger as she pushes them back .

" That must be the healer in charge here " one of the Root members said to another.

" Get her ! " another one shouted as they come at Isane.

" Run Itegumo " Isane chanted as she releases her Shikai and then cuts the Root member in half.

" Sister !" Kiyone cheerfully stated.

" Looks like Sentarō is hurt badly ,Hanataro, Lemura get him behind the wall " Isane said to them .

" Right ! " Hanataro replied as he carries the body while Lemura covers him. They are surrounded by 2 Root members who are about to cut them down .

" Raise Your Head Wabisuke " Izuru chanted as he release his Shikai and decapitates one of the Root members with ease .

" Growl Haineko (灰猫, "Ash Cat") " Rangiku chants as she creates a cloud of ash which shreds another Root member into thousands of pieces.

Hanataro and Lemura manage to get Sentaro back behind the wall in time while Rangiku and Izuru come as cavalry.

" Looks like we got our work cut out for us ! " Izuru said to Rangiku .

" These Root guys are as strong as 3rd seat officers and there's 200 of them . We need more people to help us out " Rangiku stated.

" Isane, help us cover for the retreating soldiers and have then go behind the wall . Orihime can heal the injured back up like nothing happened " Izuru stated.

" Okay ! " Isane replied.

" What do i do sister ? " Kiyone asked her.

" We fight together as one , stay close to me " Isane answered as they prepare to fight off the group.

Meanwhile inside the campground beyond the walls . Rin, Akon and Hiyosu are busy communicating with Momo and Nanao while having several Shinigmai use Bakudō #77. Tenteikūra to transmit messages.

" We need you two to return to the campgrounds and fight off the Shinobi invading the site " Akon commanded.

" Okay, we set up an Kidō barrier protecting the injured and fallen from any further harm " Nanao stated.

" The threats outside are confirmed to be 195 3rd seat level Shinigami . We are also calling back regular ground forces to take aim from a distance and use Kidō based attacks to fend off attackers from the base " Akon stated .

" We'll be there in 5 minutes or less ! " Momo stated.

" Very well then ! " Akon replied.

Meanwhile Uryū and Chad are at the tent which is being reconstructed by Orihime using Sōten Kisshun to revert the tent back how it was a few minutes ago as well as all the tents in the campgrounds .

" Incredible, she can even heal inorganic material from starch " Uryū said to Chad.

" Orihime's powers are amazing as ever ! " Chad replied.

" There, all new ! " Orihime said to the team.

" It's a good thing none of the patients were injured any further " Uryū said to his friends.

" So what do we do now ? " Chad asked.

" Our plan was to make sure Orihime is safe , i overheard the Shinigami stating that all the Shinobi attacking are a special black op group with each Shinobi around the level of an Assistant Lieutenant. In short, they are mild threat to the campground and a serious threat to all the healers here " Uryū explained to them.

" Then we will stick around the area and defend it as much as possible " Chad stated.

" Right ! " Uryū replied .

" I'm going to fix the computers around the place as well " Orihime replied as she goes to Rin, Akon and Hiyosu .

500 meters north of Squad 4's campgrounds

Ichigo clashes attacks with Danzō while Danzō is only using one hand on his sword to counter Ichigo's strikes. Ichigo does a two-handed jump strike causing the ground around Danzō to be uplifted 7 feet high as Danzō easily blocks the strike with a weak sword guard . Ichigo struggles to push down Danzō while Danzō stands there causally not moving from his position.

" What pathetic skills, you can never counter my level of skill with mere brute force " Danzō said to Ichigo in a nonchalant tone.

" Pathetic skills ? i'll show you who has the pathetic skills " Ichigo replied as he lands on the ground and pushes Danzō's sword back with a horizontal two-handed swing and then goes for another slash but Danzō jumps over the attack and does a jump slash which causes a 20 foot implosion wave .

Danzō then uses his right hand to aim the sword at Ichigo's face but Ichigo blocks the strike . Danzō then hits Ichigo with a right roundhouse kick pushing Ichigo back 50 feet . Danzō then goes for a slash aimed at the right arm but Ichigo blocks the strike and uses a one hand sword lunge but Danzō dodges and does a handstand then appears behind Ichigo and throws Ichigo through 5 trees .

" Just as i thought, your skills are still that of a Gennin despite having Jōunin level strength " Danzō berated as Ichigo gets back up and goes for a counterattack.

" Kuroi Getsuga " Ichigo shouted as he fires a black wave of energy at Danzō but Danzō easily cuts the blast in half . Danzō then uses Shunshin to appear behind Ichigo.

" You're too slow ! " Danzō stated as he comes at Ichigo with a lunging stab but Ichigo blocks with both hands on his sword .

Ichigo and Danzō clash attacks with each other , they collide slashes and exchange chops and stabs . Danzō comes at Ichigo with a sweeping slash but Ichigo uses Shunpo to gain his distance and comes at Danzō's chest with a stab but Danzō catches his right hand and throws Ichigo through a 20 foot rock .

" Kuroi Getsuga " Ichigo chanted as he fires another blast at close range towards Danzō but Danzō once again blocks the attack.

" Like i said before, your meager sword skills can't compare to someone who can fight on par with the Legendary Hanzō in terms of swordsmanship " Danzō stated as he lunges at Ichigo with a fast strike which lightly grazes Ichigo's left check.

" That attack was fast ! " Ichigo said impressed by the speed of Danzō's attacks.

" There's more ! " Danzō replied as he does 30 lunging stabs in 3 seconds which Ichigo barely dodges . Ichigo manages to grab Danzō's hand and cut the old man with his sword slash but the Root leader only gets a tiny paper cut from Ichigo's Bankai

" That's impossible, how is it that you aren't even cut deeply ? " Ichigo asked the old man .

" Pathetic, you're still a child. Do you think you were really a match against the future Sixth Hokage ? " Danzō asked him.

" Future Sixth Hokage ? " Ichigo asked shocked to hear the news.

" You're abilities are still that of a Gennin, the only thing special about you is that you have Jōunin level strength and speed. Your skills are amateurish at best but then again , i don't expect anything more from brats . If this is the best you can do against a Kage level Shinobi without your demon powers then it's best you surrender before you end up killing yourself " Danzō explained to Ichigo.

" Did you say Kage level ? " Ichigo questioned the elderly man.

" I was the rival to the Third Hokage and once known as the strongest of this village but there's no time for my backstories. Capturing you alive is top priority so i can become the new Hokage now that the current Hokage has failed " Danzō answered.

" No wonder he was easily deflecting my attacks. He didn't even try to fight seriously up until this point , it also explains that he was able to defeat two Captains without taking a starch. I'm in serious trouble if i don't fight him off for real . I must find a weak point and take him down somehow " Ichigo thinks to himself.

" Let's stop playing around and get serious ! " Danzō said to Ichigo as he powers up and uses Shunshin to catch Ichigo off-guard and do a jump slash which Ichigo barely dodges . Danzō the goes behind Ichigo and comes at Ichigo with a stab.

" I don't think so ! " Ichigo replied as he moves his sword with his left hand to guard that side and do a parry but Danzō used Shunshin to appear at the right side of Ichigo coming at him with a horizontal slash.

" Time to take you down ! " Danzō stated as he goes to slash Ichigo but Ichigo ducks down , avoiding the slash. Ichigo then manages to dodge the attack and hit Danzo sway with a shockwave which knocks him back a bit.

" I'm not letting you get me or allowing you guys to destroy this campground. There are many injured people within the camp " Ichigo shouted.

" Exactly, you guys came and attacked our village and you expect mercy ? How laughable " Danzō taunted as he swings his sword.

" It doesn't matter who started this war, what matters is that they're many innocent medics there who would never hurt a fly in there as well " Ichigo stated.

" I know, those medics are useful to healing the Shinigami and must be dealt with " Danzō replied.

" That's evil ! " Ichigo shouted.

" Evil ? You really are naïve kid, what i'm doing is simply protecting the village from people like you who threaten it at all cost . I'm actually a believer of peace and hope to unite the world together under Konoha and protect it from threats like you. It's not nearly as black and white as you think " Danzō explained to Ichigo.

" I'm not buying that shit, if you are trying to kill weak and defenseless people then you are the enemy. I'm not superman, so I can't say anything big like I'll protect everyone on earth. I'm not a modest guy who will say it's enough if I can protect as many people as my two hands can handle either. I want to protect a mountain-load of people and scum like you who murders people out of your self-righteous bullshit will not prevail as long as i draw my breath " Ichigo stated with an intense look of anger as his body is surrounded with black and red Reiatsu.

" What naïvety, you are merely a child. It seems for people who have 10 times the lifespan of us humans, you're not that much wiser than a 16-year-old brat To be a Shinobi is to sacrifice oneself. Closing your eyes to the sunlight, distinguishing yourself in the shadows. That is the true form of ninja, we are killers, assassins and those who do whatever it takes to win the fight . Your idealism is just another sign of your weakness " Danzō explained to Ichigo.

" If that's what a Shinobi is really like, then it should be no surprise why you guys are in a war with the Soul Society. I didn't come here to be a hero, i came to win and get out of here and protect my friends " Ichigo replied as he charges up his Bankai and comes at Danzō.

" Then i would have to discipline you about the reality of the world , Iaidō:Hayauchi(居合道Way of Iai :Quick Draw) " Danzō chanted as he quickly draws the blade to strike using Shunshin and goes to cut Ichigo's sword arm.

" Noko Kuroi Getsuga( 鋸黒月牙 Sawing Black Moon Fang ) " Ichigo countered as he uses his Getsuga Tenshō to form a saw like blade and blocks the attack and pushes Danzō back with his attack grazing his right arm's golden braces.

" This kid isn't half bad, he's still green but it seems he's increasing his strength more than i imagined . With my Sealing Arm Braces, i'm forced to hold back more than 99% of my real power in a fight . He's going to be a stubborn one to deal with " Danzō stated to himself.

" I don't want to waste my Hollowfication just yet. I need to bait him out , he's going easy on me right now but when he drops his guard , that would be my opportunity to take him down in one shot. If Kisuke is correct , a Kage is still too powerful for me to fight in a serious fight but if i can hit him before he has the chance to use his full power, then i should be able to beat him " Ichigo thinks to himself as he parries Danzō's strikes.

Meanwhile 1 mile east of Konoha General Hospital

Yoruichi and Naruto continue their battle together . Naruto goes to kick Yoruichi but Yoruichi easily dodges the attack while standing in the same place.

Naruto goes to attack Yoruichi up close with his right hand but Yoruichi dodges the attack. Naruto goes for a series of fast punches and goes for a haymaker but Yoruichi blocks with her right foot and goes to kick Naruto with her right foot . Yoruichi blocks a devastating kick from Naruto with her open palm and is standing there barely breaking a sweat while Naruto struggles to land a hit on her.

" What is this woman ? I can't even land a punch against her . How fast is she ? Everytime my fist comes into contact of her skin by an inch, it misses somehow . What trick is she using ? " Naruto asked himself as Yoruichi stands there calm and relaxed.

" Is there something wrong ? Think you can beat me ? " Yoriuchi taunted.

" It's time i stop playing around with you and get serious Multi Shadow Clone Jutsu (多重影分身の術 Tajū Kage Bunshin no Jutsu)" Naruto chanted as he summons 150 clones of himself to attack, all of them dashing at 6416.7 ft/sec(4,375 MPH) moving around Yoruichi.

" I guess it seems you want to take me all at once . Not bad however i already have a lover, those days are behind me however i still can't help myself to multiple men " Yoruichi sarcastically remarked as she uses high-speed movement to easily take out all the clones in 3 seconds.

" Impossible, she took them out so fast , is she in her Bankai state ? It can't be, she's not even using a sword so how is she... " Naruto shouted shocked to see the clones only to see Yoruichi behind her .

" So fast ? " Yoruichi said to Naruto as Naruto is right behind her.

" Shit ! " Naruto shouted as he goes to punch her only to get kicked in the face by Yoruichi and sent flying 500 feet into a pile of rubble.

" Come on kid, was that the best you can do to me ? I fail to see how you were a match to my top students Byakuya and Soifon if you can't even make me flinch " Yoruichi said to the blonde Shinobi.

" So those guys who came after me worked for you ? " Naruto asked.

" No, they were my students, you hurt both of them pretty badly too . I guess you must of used your Tailed Beast powers to with those battles because your skill level is pitiful. Your Taijutsu has no rhyme or form , you're merely swinging your punches and kicks and it's far too easy to read " Yoruichi explained to Naruto.

" Too easy to read huh ? I guess you're right " Naruto replied as it's revealed that the one she was talking to was a clone and is behind her with Rasengan.

" What the ? " Yoruichi stated as Naruto goes to attack the Black Shinigami.

" Rasengan" Naruto chanted as he goes to hit her but the attack seems to go through her and Yoruichi vanishes and grabs Naruto's shoulder a split second after Naruto thinks he hit her .

" Whoa, that was close, you almost got me there ! " Yoruichi sarcastically said to the blonde Shinobi.

" Impossible , she evaded my strike with ease. It didn't even seem like i missed. Is she moving so fast that i can't even keep up with my eyes alone ? " Naruto asked himself as he is frustrated of Yoruichi's speed.

" You can't win Naruto, surrender right now or i would have to get serious with you " Yoruichi said to Naruto.

" You should know that i never give up, that's my ninja way ! " Naruto replied as he thinks to himself.

" I see, so you plan to die for your ninja way ? So be it " Yoruichi said to Naruto.

" If i can't keep up with her speed, i would just have wear her down with numbers " Naruto thinks to himself.

" So you refuse to give up, then i would have to get serious then " Yoruichi stated.

" Try catching me first OVER 9,000 Shadow Clone Jutsu ( 以上九千影分身の術 Ijō Kyū sen Kage Bunshin no Jutsu)" Naruto chanted as each of his clones make 1,000 clones each, in total making 9,001 Narutos.

" Not bad, so this is your secret to your power ? I must say, i never been around so many men before " Yoruichi sarcastically stated.

" Enough joking around, it's time we kick your ass Ninja Art: Demon Wind Shuriken Shadow Clone Jutsu( 多重風魔手裏剣身の術Fūma Shuriken Kage Bunshin no Jutsu)" They all shout as they hit Yoruichi with shrunken and the shrunken hit their target with devastating precision but despite the accuracy, every shot missed it's mark while Yoruichi appears to haven't moved a muscle .

" What terrible aim you have , you guys are quite a disappointment " Yoruichi taunted as she is holding one of the kunai nonchalantly .

" Try this ! " Naruto shouted as his clones charge at the woman.

" I see, rushing at me all at once trying to pound a sweet innocent woman like me , i don't think i can handle all of you at once " Yoruichi taunted .

" Shut up, i'm getting tired of your sarcasm . I'm going to kick your ass believe it ! " all the clones replied as they charge at Yoruichi.

" I love it when men are this stubborn and determined it's a shame you stand no chance of beating me " Yoruichi replied.

Meanwhile at Konoha General Hospital

Katsuyu has everyone under protection within the Hospital . Ebisu goes to talk with her .

" Don't worry, everyone is safe as long as i'm here " Katsuyu stated.

" Thank goodness you were here ! " Ebisu replied.

All of a sudden , Sakura her team bring back more injured Shinobi. Sakura is carrying 2 people on her back while Ino is holding on her back, Chōza and Chōji in their large forms are carrying 10 people each while Shikaku and Shikamaru are holding 1 person in their arms and Inoichi has 2 people on his back. Sakura then notices the power is out .

" What's happened here ? " Sakura asked Katsuyu.

" The fighting with the legendary Sannin and the Shintachio caused Chakra shockwaves which took out all the electronics within the hospital " Katsuyu explained to them.

" Damn it ! " Ino stated.

" Guess we have to start up the backup generator and repair it " Shikaku stated.

" Thank goodness, Tsunade has ran out of Chakra and the main body of me as well. There's no telling how long we can last healing all the people " Katsuyu stated.

" I need to get working on Yamato's cure immediately " Sakura stated.

" Okay then ! " Katsuyu replied.

East Konoha Highlands

Ukitake lies within a 7 mile diameter , 1 mile deep crater at the center of the attack, his injuries are brutal and fatal . Ukitake's lower right half of his face has been smashed in and the upper left part of his skull has been cracked into many chunks of pieces almost causing brain spillage while the rest of the skull has been fractured and shattered giving the skull a flattened look. Ukitake as has a compound fracture on his neck with his hyoid bone partially sticking out in the middle of the neck piercing the carotid artery and jugular vein. His ribs are exposed partially pointing out of the skin as well as his femur bones on both knees and both humerus poking out partially from the elbow.

Ukitake lies there motionlessly on the ground covered with his blood and dying. The extent of his injuries are so brutal that it looks like the aftermath of a train accident . Ukitake has reverted to his sealed sword form as he lies there at near death.

" Am i going to die ? I can't even see from my right eye and i feel no pain . I can't even talk .. Guess it was inevitable but i never thought that i could be beaten in battle by such a powerful opponent " Ukitake said to himself unable to talk and he tires to move his body .

He then sees two young, identical twin boys with large, light green-colored eyes, and short silver hair that is pulled back into ponytails. They wear identical light blue robes over kimonos, triangular-shaped hats, light beige hakama and blue shoes; their clothing resembles that of traditional Japanese Shinto priests.

" Don't die master Ukitake ! " one of the twins said to him.

" Sōgyo no Kotowari ? " Ukitake stated but is barely able to talk due to the fact he has only half a jaw, blood coughing out his mouth and gaping neck wound and his voice box severely damaged.

" Come on , please don't leave us , your like a father to us " another twin said to him as tears form around their eyes.

" I'm ...sorry ... my children... forgive me for... not being there for you " Ukitake said to them as he tries to get back up and hug them.

" No, don't leave us, we don't want to be orphaned ! " Sōgyo no Kotowari replied as their master then drops to the ground.

" Goodbye my children ! " Ukitake said to them as he falls to the ground on his back and his eyes lose all life in them and his heart stops beating.

" MASTER ! " Sōgyo no Kotowari shouted as they cry after seeing their master die and after a few seconds they vanish as well.

Realm of Death

Ukitake's pov

I can't feel my arms nor can i feel my body. I guess this really is the end of the line for me.

530 Years ago

I was born within the low-class aristocratic Ukitake family on December 21 1471 . I was the eldest son from the low-class aristocratic Ukitake family. I had five brothers and two sisters. My oldest sister was Envera Ukitake born January 23, 1631 and the youngest one Moria Ukitake who was born November 14, 1690 . My brothers were Nasan Ukitake who was the 2nd oldest in the family who was born July 25 , 1566 , the 3rd oldest was Sasuke Ukitake who was born February 5 , 1590 the middle child was Lentos Ukitake who was born on May 11 1681 , the second youngest brother was Yiri Ukitake who was born on June 7, 1751 and the youngest was Tyris Ukitake who was born March 21 , 1771 .

My father who was the head of the lower noble clan was Dakus Ukitake who was born April 4 , 1264. My mother was Rosay Revola from the Revola lower noble clan born October 3 , 1266 and married via arranged marriage on March 21 1460 . Despite it being an arranged marriage, my parents loved each other and were childhood friends .

I remember the first thing that i recall remembering was the first thing i said to my parents. It was a sunny afternoon approaching sunset on a nice spring day when i went to the Revola garden . My dad had black hair with no facial hair on his face while my mother had long blonde hair and wore a pink kimono.

" Son, this is a great day isn't it ? " he said to me.

" Dakus, he's only 30 . He has yet to fully develop his motor skills . It usually takes between 20 to 40 years for Shinigami babies to talk " my mother said to my father.

" I guess you're right ! " my father replied.

I then saw a fish jump out of the water. It was one of the most beautiful things i saw . It was two twin golden fish that came out the pond. That was when i uttered my first words.

" Twin Fish ! " i said to my parents.

" He talked , he just said his first words ! " my father said to my mother.

" This is a good day , it seems our little Ukitake is growing up very fast " my mother replied as we watched the sunset together . It was my parents who nurtured and cared for me .

470 years ago

I attended kindergarten for the first time in my life . I was a young boy with black hair and was constitutionally fit at the time attending my first day in kindergarten.

I was playing with the other students within the schoolyard when i started to feel sick, i was playing kickball with the kids when i started to get sick.

" Pass the ball Ukitake ! " said one of the kids.

" Fine !" i answered as i go to kick the ball but then i started to become very sick and cough up blood from my mouth.

" Ukitake ! " one of the kids shouted .

" Somebody call for help ! " said the teacher as i blacked out .

I woke up 3 days later with my hair now snow-white while my eyebrows were still black . My parents were at my bedside, my mother had tears running down her eyes while my father looked distress and haggard.

" He's awake Rosay ! " my father said to my mother .

" Thank goodness ! " she replied as she rushes to hug me .

" It's a miracle this child is alive, not too many people live though this disease " the doctor said to my folks.

" What do you mean ? " my father asked him.

" Jūshirō has a rare illness that is currently incurable, he has severe immunodeficiency syndrome. His organs are vulnerable to infection and bleeding . He needs these pills every time he starts to cough and need to make frequent hospital visits " the doctor said to me.

" Okay ! " my mother replied as she hugged me.

" Mommy , why is my hair white ? " i asked them.

" You're sick Ukitake !" she answered.

" Mommy, i'm scared ! " i said to them frightened about the prospect of me nearly dying.

" Don't be scared, you're going to be alright ! " my mother replied as i cried on her shoulders.

" You're son needs to stay on this wheelchair for a while in the bubble. Any infection could cause serious life threatening sickness " he said to me as i was then put in a bubble.

" I guess our son would have to walk around like this for the remainder of our lives " my mother stated as tears come out her eyes but my father comforts her and makes sure she's alright.

" Don't worry our son would prevail over this ! " my father replied.

I was put within a mobile bubble were an automated wheelchair with a bubble protected me from outside harm whenever i was in public. I was pulled out of school and heavily monitored by members of my clan for several decades.

435 years ago

35 years have passed since i was put in containment. My doctor was impressed i survived this long against the illness in my body. My mother meanwhile was undergoing intense labor with my brother.

" It looks like your son is fine ! " he said to my father .

" You're saying his life is no longer in danger ? " my father questioned.

" Not really, he's still sick and his psychical illness would seriously limit his ability to play sports or take jobs such as being a Shinigmai " my doctor stated.

" But he should be fine right ? " my father asked again.

" As long as he is given frequent hospital visits and given medication on a regular basis , Jushiro should be fine " my doctor answered.

" Dad, am i going to be alright ? " i asked him coming into the room.

" You should be fine ! " my father answered.

Suddenly the nurse rushes in to talk with my dad.

" Mr Ukitake, come quick, your child is born " the nurse said to my dad.

" Right away , Ukitake come with me " my dad said to me.

" What's going on daddy ? " i asked him.

" You're going to have a baby brother " he answered as we visited our mother which just gave birth to my baby brother and was holding him in her arms .

" Ukitake , it seems you are no longer in a bubble " my mother said to me.

" Yeah, the doctor said that i feel better " i answered .

" Looks like you have a baby brother " she said to me holding the baby in her arms.

" What is his name ? " i asked my parents.

" We named him Nasan Ukitake, every July 25 would be the celebration of his birth and you would be in charge of protecting him " they both answered.

" Don't worry mommy, i would make sure Nasan is protected with my life " i replied as i held my little brother in my arms for the first time of my life.

400 years ago

35 years have passed since my first younger brother was born and i was cleared medically to live a normal healthy life . I was starting to feel better with the exception of the occasional illness i felt. My second younger brother Sasuke Ukitake was born February 5 , 1590 11 years ago

I attended an all boys private school within the noble sector of the Soul Society, i wasn't a very strong kid and always had been weak in constitution. It also means i was a target to bullies as well as thugs as well. One day i was walking to class with my books when i was then surrounded by 3 older kids who wanted to pick on me because i was of a lower noble family.

" Hey, what's a poor runt doing here ? " one of the kids said to me.

" Nothing, i was just heading out to class " i answered the kids.

" I don't think you get it, you aren't a real rich guy like us " said one of the bullies.

" Maybe we should teach this guy a lesson ! " said one of the bullies when i then see a young boy with a pony tail walk up to them and talk with them.

" Dudes , leave the guy alone. He's done nothing to you ! " the young man said to them.

" But he's a low-class bum ! " said one of the bullies .

" Are you kidding me, that guy is from the son of the high-ranking noble Kyōraku family" another bully replied they walked way.

" Thank you for having my back " i said to the young boy.

" You're welcome , i dislike people picking on the weak " he replied.

" What is your name ? " i asked him.

" Name's Shunsui Kyōraku, yours ? " he answered.

" My name is Jūshirō Ukitake " i replied.

For that day we cemented our friendship with each other . I took my newly acquainted friend to my families house.

" So you made a friend ? " my father asked me.

" Hello mr Ukitake, my name is Shunsui Kyōraku of the Kyōraku clan " Shunsui answered bowing his head down.

" I see, it's a pleasure to meet someone from one of the higher noble houses " my father replied.

" It seems like you made a good friend there Ukitake " my mother stated.

" We were worried that you would never fit in after the illness but it now seems like you found a real friend to hang out with " my father stated.

" Don't worry Mr and Mrs Ukitake , me and Jūshirō would be friends for life " Shunsui replied as we shaked our hands.

370 years ago

Me and Shunsui hanged out with each other for 30 years as friends and we have bonded like brothers. I was 16 years old with my white hair grown to shoulder length and i was around 5'6" in height and looked like a 16 year old . Shunsui and i were friendly teenagers who hanged together in school.

" So Ukitake , how are things with you ? " he asked me.

" Fine Shunsui. Tomorrows my 160th birthday. It's the day i become a man " i answered.

" I see , well i got a surprise for you tomorrow " he said to me .

" Very well then ,i can't wait for it ! " i replied.

It was my 160th birthday the following day. I was with my whole family opening my presents from them.

" You're finally 160 years old, now you can be the leader of the clan once you marry someone from another clan " my father said to me.

" Here's this gift for you my son ! " my mother said to me. It was a beautiful golden watch my mother got that cost 200,000 kan.

" Thank you mother ! " i said to her as she hugged me.

" Big brother ! " my little brother said to me.

" What is it Nasan ? " i asked him.

" Here's your gift ! " my little brother said to me as he gave me a necklace with an amulet of a picture of me and my little brother in a family picture.

The last but not least, Shunsui came to me with a ring in his hand.

" What's with the ring ? " i asked him.

" This is our BFF ring ! " Shunsui answered.

" Thanks my friend. I would never lose this ring " i replied as hugged each other .

Suddenly my mother started to feel pain inside her.

" Crap, my mother is going into labor ! " i said panicking.

" It's going to take a while to get a carriage to take her to the hospital " my father distressfully stated.

" Don't worry, you guys can use my carriage " Shunsui replied as we head out to the hospital.

After a few hours , my mother successfully gave birth to her baby girl.

" Thanks alot Shunsui, had not for you , my mother would be in trouble" i said to my friend.

" No problem ! " Shunsui replied.

" So how's the child ? " i asked my mother.

" You're going to have a baby sister ! " she answered as she just gave birth to my baby sister and was holding my baby sister in her arms .

" What is her his name ? " i asked my parents.

" We named her Envera Ukitake" they both answered.

" Thank you for helping us " i said to Shunsui.

" You're welcome ! " he replied.

350 years ago

I graduated from the noble high school after being in high school for 40 years . I was one of the best students to graduate from the high school. My friend Shunsui was there as well . While i worked hard to get out of the school , Shunsui was an underachiever who only cared about chasing women .

" Looks like you graduated from high school too Shunsui " i said to my friend.

" Well i might be lazy be even i need to pass just to keep my folks from cutting me off " Shunsui stated.

" So what about the prom ? " i asked him.

" Don't worry, if you need a date then i have plenty of girls to choose from " Shunsui said to me.

" No thanks, i'm cool ! " i replied as we walked down the stage after getting our diploma. I then met my parents as well as my 75-year-old brother Nasan Ukitake , my 61-year-old brother Sasuke Ukitake, 20-year-old sister Envera Ukitake.

" We're proud of you Ukitake ! " my father said to me.

" You made us proud !" my mother said to me as she hugged me .

" I'm one step closer to becoming an attorney " i said to my parents.

" We raised a fine child here ! " my father stated to my mom .

" You don't mind if i go to the prom with my friends do you ? " i asked my folks .

" Sure thing, you're a man now. You deserved to hang out with your friends " my mother answered.

" Okay ! " i replied as i head out to the prom.

Me and Shunsui were within the prom which was within a fancy ballroom. Shunsui was with 10 girls partying with them when he came to me with one of them with green hair and red hair that is waist length with light skin and c-cup boobs.

" Hey Ukitake ! " Shunsui said to me.

" Hey Shunsui, looks like you have quite alot of dates " i stated.

" I have a girl to introduce to you " he said to me as the green haired girl comes up to me.

" Who is this girl ? " i asked Shunsui.

" She's the sister of Lara Kasumiōji and cousin of Guren Kasumiōji , Mashra Kasumiōji " Shunsui answered.

" You mean the child genius freshman and the leader of the cheerleading team ? " i asked him.

" Yep, i'm related to them . I heard about how smart you are , i'm from another school studying law " Mashra answered.

" So you're here to see your sister graduate and visit your cousin ? " i asked her.

" Yes i am . I have heard alot about you from my friend Shunsui and Lara told me how smart you are " Mashra stated.

" I'm interested to get to know you better " i said to her .

" Okay , how about we start by dancing ? " Mashra asked me.

" Fine ! " i answered as we grabbed each other and started to dance with each other throughout the night.

" I have a feeling we are going to get along very well " Mashra said to me as she kissed me on the check.

" I have the exact same feeling !" i replied.

300 years ago

I spent nearly 50 years within college . I was studying in the major of law and wanted to become an attorney the same way that Mashra wanted to become a lawyer. After recently finishing college . Me and Mashra decided to date for the first time in our lives . I moved into my own place and visited my parents and my siblings every weekend that i wasn't too busy .

" So Ukitake, where do you want to take me ? " Mashra asked me.

" Let's go to a fancy restaurant " i answered as i grabbed her hand and then walked to the 4 star restaurant .

We ate some of the finest foods within the restaurant. I paid for everything in the restaurant and after getting the check, we headed to a secluded hilltop where we stared at the stars.

" Ukitake , where do you think you might be in the next hundred years ? " Mashra asked me.

" I honestly don't know, assuming this illness i'm cursed with doesn't kill me off first i hope i can be with a family with kids " i answered.

" Well hopefully you would stick around long enough to make me a happy woman " Mashra stated as we go to kiss each other and feel each others hair.

250 years ago

Me and Mashra were now madly in love after dating for over 50 years . Mashra and i were running a successful life together as attorneys who were fighting for the rights of all people . Me and her were attending the baby shower of Yiri Ukitake 6 months before his birth.

My oldest sister , Envera Ukitake was 120 years old and had blonde hair . My brother Nasan was 185 years old and had curled , golden hair and a muscular body frame . My 2nd brother Sasuke Ukitake was 161 years old and had golden hair and my current youngest brother Lentos was 70 years old. I was 280 years old as well as my girlfriend.

My father was 487 years old . My mother was 485 and still looked like she was in her early 30's and was still able to bear children despite being in her middle ages. Everyone was at the baby shower that day.

" So you're having another little brother Ukitake ? " my girlfriend asked me.

" Yeah, it's surprising that my mother could give birth at her advanced age. So what's happening in your life " i answered.

" My cousin Guren just got married last week to the son of the Kuchiki clan leader " she stated.

" I see , that's a good thing. Well speaking of marriage .. i was thinking about it long and hard about the subject " i said to her.

" Thinking of what ? " she asked.

" Mashra... would you take my hand in marriage ? " i asked her as i proposed to her with my ring.

" Yes, i do ! " Mashra replied .

I then came up to everyone to explain that me and Mashra have proposed to each other.

" Everyone, i have an important thing to say to you " i said to everyone.

" What is it ? " my mother asked me.

" Do tell my son " my father stated.

" Me and Mashra are going to get married soon " i answered.

" Excellent my son, you are finally becoming a man " he said to me.

" I'm so proud of you, you would be soon giving us grandchildren " my mother said to me.

" Bro, good luck on your marriage ! " Nasan said to me.

240 years ago

Me and Mashra walked down to the shrine with me wearing a fine suit and my wife wearing a beautiful wedding dress. Mashra and i stand beside each other at the end of the aisle, in front of the chanting priest. He'd stop, taking their hands and setting Mashra 's on top of mines, the priest would then give a gesture of his hands, for the couple to face each other.

" Jūshirō Ukitake ! Do you take Mashra Kasumiōji as you lawfully wedded wife ? " the priest asked me.

" I do ! " i answered with enthusiasm.

" Mashra Kasumiōji ! Do you take Jūshirō Ukitake as you lawfully wedded husband ? " the priest asked her.

" I do !" Mashra replied.

" I now pronounce you, husband and wife. You may kiss your bride " the priest said as we both kissed each other and walked down the aisle together where i met my best friend Shunsui who was the ring man in the wedding .

" Well, looks like you finally got married " Shunsui said to me.

" All thanks to you " i replied.

" Had not for you hooking me up with him, i would've never met such a great guy like Ukitake " Mashra said to my friend.

" Me and Ukitake are like brothers, we always stick together no matter what " Shunsui replied.

My mother and father walk to meet us .

" Congratulations, you made us proud ! " my mother said to me as she hugs me tight .

" You are the shiny example of a great son , your brothers and sisters are proud of you and you're an inspiration to them all " my father proudly said to me as he shook my hand as i carried my newlywed wife to the horse carriage where we were taken to our honeymoon spot .

" I can't believe we had such a good time " i said to her.

" Me too ! " Mashra replied as she kissed me in the mouth.

" Mashra! " i said blushing from her kiss.

" I love your Ukitake ! " Mashra said to me as she kisses me .

" I love you too ! " i replied as we made out with each other. Mashra then began to undress me and lick my neck.

" This is my first time i did this " Mashra said to me.

" Same here ! " i replied blushing as i began to feel on her boobs.

(A/N:Warning there is Lemon at this scene. If you don't want to read it, scroll down until you see the message that tells you to continue from here )

" Looks like you have gotten better with your sickness " Mashra said to me as she puts his hand around my member.

" Ah, Mashra " i said blushing.

Both of us start to make out with each other as we feel on each others gentila.

" So intense... ah " Mashra shouted as i rubs against her vagina.

" Hmmm, i want to get a good look down there " i said to her as i removed her panties causing her to blush.

" Hey stop it , don't down there ! " Mashra replied blushing as she orgasmed . I then took out my penis and go on top of her and feels on her boobs.

" Damn these boobs are so soft ! " i said to her as i thrusted inside her while groping her melons.

" What an incredibly huge dick ! " she said to me as i thrusted and pound her body while licking her boobs.

" This seems delicious , i want to keep licking it ! " i said to Mashra as i moved around my tongue around her melons causing her to moan and her face turned red.

" This is so intense... I can't handle this... i'm cumming ... AAAHAH " Mashra screamed in ecstasy as she is about to climax.

" You're so cute when your blushing like that " i said to her as then suddenly felt like climax .

" Ah... Deeper...all the way in.. feels so GOOD ! MM..MMM ! " she shouted as she took more and more of me inside. We made out with each other. We cuddled with each other as i pound and drilled her.

" UKITAKE ! " Mashra shouted as she orgasmed..

" MASHRA! " i replied as i released inside me and we cuddle up with each other underneath the sheets.

(You may now continue from here to avoid the lemon)

" Ukitake that was amazing " Mashra said to me.

" I think you and i are in the beginning of a beautiful relationship ,i'm glad i married to you " i replied.

221 years ago

19 years have passed since me and Mashra have married each other. We were dating each other within a grassy field in the better part of the Runokgai .

" Isn't the site beautiful ? " i asked her.

" Indeed ! " Mashra replied as we stared at the moon together .

" It's too bad my illness prevents me from bearing any children " i said to my wife.

" Indeed but don't worry ,we can find ways around it by adopting a child " Mashra said to me.

" I love your Mashra ! " i said to her.

" I love you too ! " she replied as we were about to make out with each other but then all the sudden we encountered a terrifying monster. It was around 30 feet high with a mask like face with the body of an crab .

" What the hell is that ? " i shouted.

" A Hollow, run for your life ! " Mashra shouted as she was then grabbed by the monstrous crab.

" Mashra ! " i shouted ass i grabbed a nearby tree branch and try to fend off the monster and free her.

" UKITAKE ! " Mashra yelled in horror as the crab-like Hollow then squeezes onto her as i struggle to damage it .

" LET GO OF HER ! " i shouted only to feel myself becoming ill ." Not here of all times " i stated as i struggle to stand.

" UKITAKE! ARRGH ! " Mashra screamed as the Hollow cuts her in half with her pincers to my horror.

" MASHRA !" I shouted in despair as she died in front of my eyes as i was helpless to stop it.

" ARRRRAWAAGHR ! " the Hollow roared at me as it came right at me.

" You killed my wife, you bastard. I'LL MAKE YOU PAY ! " i shouted as i recklessly charged at the Hollow and was actually able to stab the Hollow through the eye with the sharp end of the stick and was able to kill it out of a fluke strike. I then rushed to my wife only to see it was too late to save " No,nooo, NOOO! " i shouted in despair as i held the top half of my wife's corpse .

All of the sudden a pack of 10 large Hollows which are 10 times stronger than normal Hollows came and surrounded me as well as the Adjuchas leader. The Hollow leader was T-rex like monster with human like arms.

" What an incredibly delicious soul we found here. We been looking for you for a while " the Adjuchas asked me.

" So you murdered my wife as well ? " i shouted at him.

" She was a nasty soul but she was merely Hollow bait compared to you " the Adjuchas replied.

" I'll avenge her death by killing you " i replied as i charged at him trying to stab him with the same branch i killed the weaker Hollow with but the stick shatters into thousands of splinters hitting his eyeballs "What ? "

" I'm an Adjuchas, i'm far stronger than a normal Hollow you luckily killed with that twig " he mocked as he smacks me aside 50 feet through a tree paralyzing me . 10 Hollows then surrounded me and goes to eat me. At this point, i gave up on living.

" Come at me , i don't care anymore ! " i said to them as i had no hope left in me after watching my true love die .

Suddenly one of the Hollows that came at me first was cut cleanly in half . I opened my eyes to see a woman with a black kimono with long black hair down to her waist with blue eyes wielding a Nodachi with one hand . She had a rather busty frame under the kimono and had a bit of her cleavage exposed.

" Looks like i found some Hollows to kill " the woman said to the Hollows with a psychotic look on her face as she licks her lips.

" A Soul Reaper , you think you can beat me ? No one can beat an Adjuchas in combat " the monster said to the woman as he shoots a Cero right at the woman but she effortlessly blocks it with her right hand .

" Don't tell me that was your best Cero, i've fought Gillians with better Ceros " the woman said to the Adjuchas.

" What, impossible ! How can a Shinigami catch a Cero barehanded ? " the Adjuchas shouted.

" Is that all you can do ? How disappointing " the woman answered as she swings down her sword cleanly cutting the monster in half and then with another sword swing cuts down all the charging Hollows in half. She then drew back her sword and walked towards me.

" You came too late, my wife just died " i said to her as tears dripped down my face.

" I apologize for my incompetence ! " she replied as she used healing Kidō to fix my back in a few minutes. She then disappeared after healing me.

The next day , i set up a funeral for my dead wife. Everyone was at attendance there including Mashra's cousin Guren and her husband Sōjun who was with his father Ginrel . Shunsui was at my side in the funeral.

" Why did she have to die ? " i said to my friend as tears drip down my eyes.

" Ukitake, i'm sorry. I wish i could of been there to save her " Shunsui said to me trying to confront me.

" She had to died within our 19th anniversary , why did she had to die ? " i shouted as i walked away from the funeral.

" Son where are you going ? " my father asked me.

" I can't be here, i can't accept that she's dead " i shouted .

" You have to, it's the cold reality son however you have family here to help you " my mother said to me as tried to stop me.

" I need to be alone right now , it would be best appreciated " i replied as i walked away. At this point i had nothing to lose. I loved my wife too much to allow myself to let go of her.

Later on that night , i went to District # 3 Īsuto shūryō (イースト終了East End ) North Rukongai 40 miles north of the Seireitei and climbed on top of a 2,400 foot high mountain. I then prepared to jump off the cliff so i can finally reunite with my wife once more. I was going to jump when i heard a sound of a woman's voice.

" Bakudō # 63 . Sajo Sabaku (鎖条鎖縛, Locking Bondage Stripes)" the mysterious woman chanted as she ensnared me 200 feet into the jump and pulls me back up with ease. It was the same woman from the night before who robbed me of my glory of killing myself.

" Who are you ? " i asked her with tears in my eye.

" Don't worry, i'm not here to harm you . I'm Lieutenant Retsu Unohana " she said to me as she the puts her hands on my back.

" You bitch, why won't you let me die ? " i shouted at her.

" Because i can't allow someone like you to recklessly waste their lives " she answered.

" Why do you continue to follow me ? " i asked her.

" I didn't, you came to where i usually go to as an vacation spot when i'm off duty " Unohana stated.

" Why do you want me alive ? " i asked the black-haired woman.

" Listen you probably didn't realize this until today but you have some spiritual power " Unohana said to me.

" Spiritual power ? " i asked her shocked to hear this.

" Listen, if you wish to defend the ones you love from Hollows, you must home your spiritual power and become a Shinigami " she said to me.

" But i'm ill ! A sick man like can't hope to be as powerful as a Shinigami " i stated.

" Don't look like it , listen if you continue to walk around with uncontrolled spiritual power, you might end up killing everyone around you including yourself . Those Hollows targeted you and your wife because of your great Reiatsu, if you wish to avoid more tragedies, train to become a Shinigami" Unohana stated.

" Why not kill me if i'm that much of a threat ? " i questioned her.

" Because you can help save the lives of millions with me . You have the look of a person who wants to help protect the innocent, why not use that power hidden in you to do so ? " Unohana asked me.

" Why do you care so much about me ? You barely know me " i questioned her.

" Because i know how it's like to walk in darkness, if anything unlike you i had no family and lived much of my life alone. You need to appreciate the family you do have and make sure they don't meet the same fate as your fallen wife " Unohana answered.

" I guess you have a point, i was being selfish and immature, i must burden the responsibility of having power and deal with this " i replied.

" Fine, do it just to make sure no one loses their loved ones like you have " Unohana said to me.

" Thank you for saving me ! " i said to her only to see her disappear.

220 years ago

I lived a normal life as a soul from a noble family as well as Shunsui. While was sick and still had the illness, i also discovered i had spiritual power and wanted to learn how to control it so i don't hurt the ones i love. After realizing that i had spiritual power, i joined the Shinōreijutsuin (精神的な芸術アカデミー, Spiritual Arts Academy) and was going to take the Shinō academy qualification exams when i met my best friend Shunsui .

" Shunsui, you're here too ? " i asked them.

" My folks made me come here against my will " Shunsui answered as he is waiting in line calmly.

" I see ! " i replied.

" Nervous ? " he asked.

" You're not ? " i asked.

" Why should i be, if i pass, i pass, if i fail, there's always next year " Shunsui answered as he was eating steamed buns .

" Those are some delicious bums " Ukitake said to Shunsui .

" Want some buns ? " Shunsui asked me.

" Sure ! " i replied as i took some buns to eat.

As we sat there eating an announcement came over the loudspeakers.

" Attention, would all prospective Shinigami please report to the courtyard " said one of the Shinigami.

We both walked out to the courtyard were saw so many people wearing the training robes. I felt sorry for the ones that would have to turn them in. We then saw 3 people within the courtyard . One of them was the Head Captain himself who was with his Lieutenant Retsu Unohana who was Vice Captain for 20 years after graduating from the academy after 3 years and the other person was Ginrei Kuchiki.

" This test is to see if you have the ability to even become first step is to see if you guys can manifest an Asauchi (浅打ちShallow Hit)" Yamamoto said to us.

" Those who generate a Asauchi would be qualified to seek training to use a real Zanpakutō " Unohana stated.

" Everyone come forward and grab these sword hilts. If you can channel and solidify your Reikyou into the hilt forming a sharp blade, you pass the entrance exam . If you don't you fail the entrance exam " Ginrei stated as he shows them how it's done by turning his own spiritual energy into an Asauchi.

" The first to go up is Jushiro Ukitake " Yamamoto said to me as i walk up to pick up the hilt nervous that i might fail this .

" Are you ready ? " Ginrei asked me.

" Yeah ! " i answered while i nodded nervously i then try to summon my blade however the hilt breaks on me.

" What's going on ? " Unohana asked the elder Captains .

" Impossible, did he just ... " Ginrei stated shocked to see my sword transform into a real Zanpakutō which resembled an average katana with a rectangular bronze cross guard and dark red handle .

" Well do my eyes deceive me, not since Unohana or the recent graduate student have i seen anyone form a Zanpakutō on their first try " Yamamoto stated.

" It's my turn ! " Shunsui stated as he walked up and grabbed the hilt however he created his own impressive feat . He created two completely different Zanpakutōs consisting of a tachi and a wakizashi. Their cross guards are rectangles, with the corners cut off, decorated by a pattern of cherry petals and lines, and each sports a dark-blue handle.

" They both manifested real Zanpakutō's " Yamamoto stated.

" These two are something else , i haven't seen potential and talent of this level in hundreds of years " Ginrei said the both of us.

" Both of you are automatically qualified to be in the academy " Yamamoto explained to us.

219 Years ago

1 year had past since i was drafted into the Shinō Academy as well as Shunsui . I was able to train hard to become a student of the Shinigami Academy. Our talents quickly came to be noticed by the higher-ups and both me and Shunsui was frequently given missions from the Gotei 13 even though i had not yet graduated.

I was at my second year when we were leading a field lesson on performing the Konsō with Freshman Class One when a group of huge Hollows took the class by surprise.

" I think the exercise went perfectly , I think everyone has returned safely " i stated.

" So the exercise was a success ? " Shunsui asked.

" This is Ukitake at the checkpoint ! Barrier team, what's your report ? What's going on respond ? What's wrong, barrier team ? ! " i called them but i got no response. I had a terrible feeling from this, not since the Hollow that attacked me since i felt this fear.

" What's going on ? What could of happened ? " Shunsui asked.

" I don't know , it's strange for them not to answer " i answered holding the phone in my hand then my friend notices the corpse of the barrier team. They were badly mutilated and ripped apart by Hollows. Then a large bull Adjuchas class Hollow with sharp bull horns.

" Shit a Hollow ! " Shunsui shouted as he draws out his two sealed swords .

" Don't worry we are use to dealing with his type " i replied as i pull out my blade as well .

" How was such a gigantic Hollow able to sneak up on us like that ? " Renji asked me.

"I don't know , it seems it was able to conceal it's spiritual pressure somehow " i answered.

Me and Shunsui charge at the bull like creature but both our blades fail to cut him.

" Is that all you got Shinigamis ? " the Adjuchas asked us.

" Damn it, how's it possible, we can kill even Menos with our skills and yet our blade fails to pierce his skin " i said to Shunsui.

" Don't compare me to those weaklings, i'm an Adjuchas .We are ten times the power of a Menos " he said to us as he attacked the both of us.

We took a beating from the Adjuchas as it toyed with us and punched us around . We were powerless against the Adjuchas. We were then knocked down by the Adjuchas and were badly injured.

" It looks like we met our match Ukitake! " Shunsui said to me.

" Indeed... " i replied as the Adjuchas came right at us only for me to hear a voice in my head.

" Ukitake kun !" said a voice which belonged to two young, identical twin boys with large, light green-colored eyes, and short silver hair that is pulled back into ponytails wearing identical light blue robes resembling Japanese Shinto priests.

" What is it ? " i asked .

" Call out my name quickly " the boys said to me .

" You're my ... " i said speechless only to be interrupted .

" Sōgyo no Kotowari (双魚理, Truth of Pisces) , quick use our powers " they said to me.

" Fine ! " i replied as i unleashed my power with my blade forming into two covered with Reiatsu given they were merely a recently awakened Shikai.

" It looks like you awakened your power as well " Shunsui said to me as his sword was covered with wind.

" You think that would be enough ? Think again " the Hollow replied as he came at us with a charging bull only to get hit by a wind and Lightning strike which causes an X shape gash on his chest .

" Never underestimate the power of the Shinigami ! " i said to the Hollow.

" You thought we were mere academy students, think again. Me and Ukitake are the best there is " Shunsui stated as he was as exhausted as i was .

" Damn it, you haven't seen the last of me " the Adjuchas replied as he retreated back to Hueco Mundo.

I collapsed and passed out for a whole only to be awoken by Lieutenant Unohana.

" Are you alright ? " Unohana asked me.

" Yeah i'm fine ! " i answered as i got back up as well as Shunsui.

" I'm fine ! " Shunsui answered.

" Good job fending off the Adjuchas long enough for all of them to escape alive " Unohana stated.

" No problem ! " i replied as i coughed again.

It was that moment which cemented us as the talk of the school as we were the ones who fought and survived against a Hollow capable of killing hundreds of academy students.

218 years ago

Me and Shunsui were the top students within the academy . We were popular among the students within the academy . We moved to the 6th grade of class pretty quickly.

" Hey Ukitake , what's up ? " said one of the academy students.

" Hey guys ! " i said to them as i was surrounded by 5 other admirers of my work.

" I wish i can be like him. How can you be so strong despite having such a weak Constitution ? " one of the guys asked me.

" I wish i can fight like you ! " one of the other students asked me .

" Indeed, you and Shunsui both kick ass " said a fourth student.

" It's nothing, i'm just a hard worker " i replied.

At that moment i saw Shunsui walking across the hallway with at least 5 women around him ranging from 160 year olds to 230 year olds.

" Hey Ukitake how's things going with you ? " Shunsui asked me as he was groping one of the girls.

" Not here Shunsui ! " said one of the girls blushing.

" Hey come on,you don't have to be shy around me " Shunsui replied as he playfully chases around two girls .

" Shunsui ! " i said to him trying to get his attention to me.

" Sorry about that Ukitake, i was too caught up those babes over there " Shunsui stated.

" That's alright , we need to get ... " i said to him only to get interrupted by a cough which i coughed up some flem and blood from my mouth.

At that moment we got a P.A. call from Yamamoto about the test we had today.

" Today we are going to have a test to see if you guys are capable of being promoted to the next grade . You must each prove your skills in combat , you must defeated at least 5 opponent in battle to be promoted to the next grade , killing is allowed but strongly discouraged . This exam would show if you are worthy of the title Shinigami. You must use all your Shinigami abilities to impress the people watching the exams " Yamamoto said to all of us as we all head out to the tournament.

After me and Shunsui fought off most of competition, we stood at the center of the ring within the stadium and we're ready to blow the minds of the spectators.

" Are you ready to do this Shunsui ? " i asked him holding my Zanpakutō.

" Anytime you're ready, friend " Shunsui answered as he drew out his tachi and wakizashi.

We then came at each other moving at high speeds using Shunpo that we mastered. Shunsui came at me with a horizontal slash with his sealed sword but i dodged the strike and blocked with my sword. Shunsui does a left hammer strike with his wakizashi which i blocked with one sword wielded by both hands . The force of the attack pushes me down .

" What incredible force you pack ! " i said to my friend as i was being pushed down 2 feet deep from Shunsui's force.

" Not bad but try this ! " Shunsui replied as he came at me with a roundhouse kick .

" Bakudō # 8. Seki (斥, Repulse) " i chanted as he creates a round shield on his hand last second orb of light blue energy knocking back the hairy Shinigami.

Meanwhile in the crowd in attendance . Yamamoto , Unohana and Ginrei were watching us fight each other.

" They're abilities are as high as you expected " Ginrei stated.

" I trained them myself , it shows how great of a teacher i am to turn these two into such powerful fighters . I never thought they processed such natural talent " Yamamoto said to the elder Kuichi.

" There Reaistu's are so high , especially for academy students " Unohana said to Yamamoto.

" Indeed, these two are already as powerful as 3rd seats " Ginrei replied.

While the geezers talked it out and while i was listening to them. Shunsui continued putting on a show for the crowd in attendance by coming at me with his swords.

" Mōda # 1 Kudaku (砕く, Smash) " Shunsui chanted as he swings his tachi downward.

" Usugiri# 5 Hāfumūn kyōda(ハーフムーン強打Half Moon Swipe)" i countered as i used a swift upward vertical slash to block his strike.

" Looks like you fight well for someone with a weak constitution " Shunsui said to me.

" Indeed , for a manwhore, you're pretty focused.

" So how about we show theses guys something special ? " he asked me.

" Indeed ! " i answered as we gathered our swords into position and generate Reiatsu around each other which caused all the academy students to get weighed down by our spiritual power .

" What are they doing ? Are they turning into their Bankai state ? " Unohana asked them.

" Not they are using there Shikai " Yamamoto answered as he stares at the duo.

A gust of wind then appears over Shunsui as he releases his Shikai.

" Flower Wind Rage and Flower God Roar, Heavenly Wind Rage and Heavenly Demon Sneer Katen Kyōkotsu (花天狂骨, Flower Heaven, Crazy Bone) " Shunsui chanted as he crosses his two blades together forming a cross-shaped formation with his tachi in his right hand facing upward and his wakizashi facing forward.

" All Waves, Rise now and Become my Shield, Lightning, Strike now and Become my Blade Sōgyo no Kotowari (双魚理, Truth of Pisces) " i chanted as i released my Shikai creating a small lightning storm.

The smoke reveals that Shunsui's blades had became a pair of huge, heavily-curved, black Chinese scimitars with silver edges. The hilt and tsuba of each are still the same as they were in Katen Kyōkotsu's sealed-form, but they now sport long red tassels dangling from the end.

I was wielding two blades with a large red rope-like chain at the base of the hilt lengthens and silver metal square charms attached to the chain begin to fall until all five present themselves. The blade was now somewhat thinner than the normal Zanpakutō and the cross guard now extended up the blade for about 15 cm. Up 25 cm from where the cross guard is, there is a 45 degree cut on the inside of the blade where a second blade is jutting back down and parallel to the main blade.

" Let's settle this once and for all ! " Shunsui said to me.

" Very well then ! " i replied as we came at each other with our Zanpakutōs as we used the only attacks we knew at the time.

" Bushōgoma (不精独楽, Lazy Spinning Top)" Shunsui chanted as he rotates with both blades facing in opposite directions creating large wind blades that fire towards me.

" Jūrakuraihadō (重落雷波動Heavy Lightning Wave ) " i chanted as i swung both blades firing two massive lightning bolts similar to a Getsuga Tenshō which hits the wind blades and create an explosion which engulfs the stadium in light blinding each other.

" What incredible power ! " Unohana stated as she looked at the two of us .

" There power is even greater than that of the Lieutenants currently employed in the Gotei 13's aside from Unohana and my Vice Captain . If anything they're almost Captain level " Ginrei stated as he looks at both of us fighting.

" Incredible, their power readings are over 9,000 RYK " Unohana stated looking at the soul phone.

" These guys are something that only comes once a generation " Yamamoto stated as they watch our fight.

Both of us were exhausted and we were out of Reiatsu given we can't fully use our Shikai's true power. Yamamoto came down with his Lieutenant and Ginrei Kuchiki.

" Looks like you two put on quite a show " Ginrei stated.

" You have both passed and are now the new 4th and 5th seats of my Squad " Yamamoto said to us as we were promoted to our position as seated officers under Lieutenant Unohana .

217 years ago

After 3 months we served under our Captain Commander and our Lieutenant Retsu Unohana. We became Shinigami at a time where the Soul Society was caught up in a war between Quincy and Shinigami . We barely knew the politics or the origins of the war, all we knew is that the Quinces were a threat to the Soul Society. Overtime, i learned that the Quincy Race began 700 to 800 years ago with the birth of Yhwach who would grow up to rage war with the Soul Society due misunderstandings regarding the laws of the Soul Society.

After he fell around 700 years ago, the Quincy race make a peace treaty with the Soul Society and it lasted for nearly 700 years ago, that is until a civil war between two clans descending from Yhwach, the Ishida clan who were the pro Shinigami side who wanted to maintain peace with the Shinigami and then there was the Takuma clan, the anti Shinigami rebel group who started the second Quincy war. After crushing an nearly destroying the Ishida Clan, Riku Takuma became in charge and undertook radical policies, one of them including causing the mass slaughter of Hollows both within the World of the Living and even within Hueco Mundo .

There was already growing problems regarding the Quinces within the years prior to the war. The population within the world of the living was drastically growing larger as of a result of rapidly advancing technology within the living world and the Shinigami could no longer stand by and be too lenient regarding the balance of souls. Shinigami govern the souls between the Human World and Soul Society, which maintains a balance that if not kept would result in the mutual destruction of both worlds. All souls, including Hollows, are subject to the Shinigami governance of maintaining the balance. Quincy completely extinguish Hollows. Thus the souls that come to the Human World do not return to Soul Society and therefore the souls would increase only on the side of the Human World. Meaning, the Human World becomes heavy in souls causing Soul Society to spill over into it; mixing life and death. The ultimate result would be the end of the world.

Many years passed within Soul Society trying to appeal to the Quincy that the handling of Hollows should be left to the Shinigami. The Quincy refused to accept the situation. As time went on, the number of Quincy increased and the cycle of souls became more unstable. Problems arose with trying to negotiate with the pro Shinigami Quincy who wanted to act as first responders to the Hollows which forced central 46 to start acting within secret assassinations of Quinces which didn't go unnoticed by the more radical Takuma clan who used the corruption of the Central 46 and intentional killing off of Quinces as their motives to seek out the destruction of the Gotei 13.

We were given the rank seated officer due to our impressive fighting skills and the fact we achieve Shikai within a short amount of time as well as the fact the previous 4th and 5th seats of Squad 1 died within battle and we took up vacant seats.

I served as the 5th seat of Squad 1 , Shunsui being slightly more powerful than me served as the fourth seat of the Squad. Despite our power levels being stronger than nearly all Vice Captains at the time minus Yoruichi or Unohana, we were still weaker than our 3rd seat Chōjirō Sasakibe at the time. Sasakibe was personally trained by Yamamoto at the request of his father . Despite being only 3rd seat, he's recently achieved Bankai and gave Yamamoto a small scar on his eyebrow putting him more or less at the level of a Captain, he was still weaker than Unohana despite both recently having Bankai achievement and both having the same training.

We were given a mission to district # 3543 within the country of Egypt not far from the Giza pyramids. It was a rescue mission of 2 Lieutenants captured by a powerful Quincy who was Captain level in power .

" We got a serious issue in our hands ! " Yamamoto said to us three.

" What is it ? " i asked the Captain Commander.

" The leader of the Quinces have token 2 of our best Lieutenants hostage " Yamamoto answered.

" What are the Quinces ? " i asked him.

" There foolish humans who kill Hollows in an act of vengeance rather than purification " Yamamoto explained to us.

" What's the harm in avenging a love one ? " Shunsui asked the old man.

" It's not the part of vengeance that is the problem. Quinces completely extinguish Hollows. Thus the souls that come to the Human World do not return to Soul Society and therefore the souls would increase only on the side of the Human World. Meaning, the Human World becomes heavy in souls causing Soul Society to spill over into it, mixing life and death " Yamamoto explained to us .

" That sounds very bad ! " Shunsui said to the old man.

" If this continues, the end result would be the end of the world " Yamamoto replied.

" Can't you talk with the Quinces ? " i asked the Captain.

" We tried to . The Soul Society tried to appeal to the Quincy that the handling of Hollows should be left to the Shinigami however the Quincy refused to accept the situation. As time went on, the number of Quincy increased and the cycle of souls became more unstable " Unohana explained to us.

" 23 years ago , war broke out . The Quinces launched an assault on a Shinigami outpost and killed 20 of our men, one of them being the former Captain of Squad 5 Marcus Hikifune, the father of current Captain of Squad 5 Kirio Hikifune " Yamamoto explained to us.

" It was that act of violence from the quinces that propelled the Central 46 to declare war on the Quinces " Unohana stated.

" We don't have much time for a history lesson, we need to rescue two Lieutenants captured by Haru Kiyoshi, one of Riku Takuma 's enforcers within district # 3,543 " Yamamoto explained to us.

" Who are the Lieutenants captured ? " i asked Yamamoto.

" One of them is Kumiko Sarugaki from Squad 5 and the other is her lover from Squad 12 Ren Hanako. The worst part was that the two were on a honeymoon and Lieutenant Sarugaki is 90 months pregnant and bound to have a baby at any moment " Unohana stated.

" Then it's settled , you guys need to head out and rescue the hostages " Yamamoto commanded.

" Where's our 3rd seat Sasakibe ? " Shunsui asked.

" He's with Ginrel Kuchiki and Lucas Shihōin's group fighting Quinces within District #2105, 50 miles west of the city of Quebec " Yamamoto answered.

" That's too far away from us ! " i stated.

" It doesn't matter, with Unohana here, you have more than enough help . You would also be joined with Captain of Squad 4 Nado Kotetsu and Captain of Squad 5 Kirio Hikifune on your mission to rescue the Hostages and take out the enforcer and there encampment " Yamamoto stated as we walk out to do our mission.

We waited at the Senkaimon for the Captains to arrive and then we met them. Nado Kotetsu was the uncle of Isane Kotetsu and Kiyone Kotetsu coming from a low-class aristocratic Kotetsu family. He became Captain of Squad 4 almost 40 years ago. He had black spiky hair and looked no older than either me or Shunsui.

The other was Kirio Hikifune . A very youthful woman who appears to be somewhat as tall as Retsu Unohana, with long purple hair, loosely draping over her shoulders . She had red eyes and she wore red scarf with her Captains robe. Kirio Hikifune was a woman of amazing intelligence. Her squad was known for having amazing minds.

Kirio Hikifune was a student of the great scientist Ran'Tao who was striped of her rank as Captain of Sqaud 12 in the year 1701 A.D after a failed experiment led to the creation of a new spiritually-active Human race, called the Bounts and caused a massive dilemma regarding what to do with them. Kirio was born around the same time i was and was well known for her intelligence. Her Father Marcus Hikifune was comparable in power to the great elder Captain Ginrei Kuchiki in terms of power and was a Captain of Squad 5 for 200 years before his death. Kirio Hikifune joined the Shinigami academy within 1644 A.D. , in 1650 A.D she graduated with high marks on all things except swordsmanship, she rose up the ranks for over 100 years until the untimely death of her father which made her Captain.

" Hello there ! " the young red eye woman said to me.

" So you're Kirio Hikifune ? " i asked her.

" Yes i am, the Quinces killed my father and i struggled to deal with the pain " Kirio said to me.

I then noticed that Unohana and Nado were hugging each other while she was feeling on his face. I could tell that Unohana was in love with the man. They we're talking with each other for a bit when Hikifune gave the orders.

" Everyone is ready to go ? " Hikifune asked us .

" Sure thing ! " i answered.

" Crystal Clear ! " Shunsui said to the Captain .

" We're both ready ! " Unohana and Nado answered as they are both holding their hands .

" Let's get going ! " Hikifune commanded as we walk into the Senkaimon and head to district # 3543.

We arrived at district # 3543 within the middle east. There was a sandstorm blowing around the area which help with us concealing our movements. We then breached a fort where the Quincies were hiding the hostages. We then saw a young woman with long blonde hair who was pregnant and a young man with red hair and freckles there.

" Lieutenant Sarugaki, Lieutenant Hanako ? " Hikifune shouted as she rushes to cut them down but it was a trap.

" No don't cut us ! " Hanako said to them.

" Damn it , Gintō traps ! " Unohana stated as she looks that the ropes are really holding Gintō tubes filled with liquid and there is a Seele Schneider trap below them .

" I must say Shinigami, you fell for my trap ! " said the Quincy leader as he walks towards us . He was a dark skin man with red hair in a mullet wearing a traditional Quincy robe .

" So you're ... ! " i asked but was interrupted .

" Haru Kiyoshi, I'm one of Takuma Riku's Stern Ritter . We captured these Shinigami to send you guys a message " the Quincy said to us.

" What do you want from us ? " i asked him.

" We worked hard to try to form peace but your Shinigami refuse to listen to us and instead you guys thought you can bully us into submission by attacking our cities first and persecuting us " the Quincy answered.

" You guys started this mess when you killed my father ! " Hikifune shouted as she draws out her Zanpakutō in rage.

" You're father started this when he wiped out one of our villages sent out by your dread Central 46 but let's put the past aside . If you Shinigami surrender yourselves to Lord Takuma and if Yamamoto concedes to the Quinces and made us the dominant superpower of the spirit world , we will spare your inferior race " Haru explained to us.

" You can't hope to do things like this. It's clear there's a misunderstanding going on here but we can work things out and make a compromise " Shunsui asked the dark skin Quincy.

" You don't get it, we are tired of your rule Shinigmai. For far too long, you controlled humanity and now that us Quinces have appeared, you fear losing your control over us. Guess there's nothing more we can discuss " Haru replied as he throws a Gintō at the pentagram.

" NOOO !" i shouted rushing to them only to see a blue beam of light engulf them. The smoke clears up to reveal that Kumiko Sarugaki was pushed out the way last second after her lover Ren Hanako broke out the rope last second and was kicked aside.

" Ren, ren don't die , DON'T DIE ! " Kumiko shouted in agony. She then tries to get up but she is then unable to move.

" Damn it, the child is trying to get out already " Shunsui stated.

" This isn't good ! " Unohana stated freaked out about this .

" Men get them and kill them all so we can send the Gotei 13 another message " Haru commanded as his men start firing their energy arrows at us.

" Shunsui , Ukitake protect me and Unohana as we try to get the child out of the mother " Nado said to us.

" Very well then ! " Shunsui replied as we took off to protect the two as they performed childbirth in the middle of the battlefield .

" I'll take care of Haru, he's the one who killed my father ! " Hikifune shouted as she attacks the leader directly in combat .

Me and Shunsui were up against 50 well-trained and well armed Quinces while facing each other .

" Looks like we are in quite a jam ! " Shunsui said to me.

" Indeed , we got to show them just how power we are " i replied as we came at all the Quinces.

We were now having to kill for the first time. It was one of the most unpleasant things in my life given i'm against violence and was always a peaceful man but this time it was different . We were stuck within a war for the survival of the Soul Society and the Human World.

After we cut down all of the fighters . Hikifune was then revealed to be heavily injured from her battle with Haru. We didn't get to see how Hikifune's Bankai looked or see how she got injured but we did know that Haru was at a weakened stated with a large cut across his body which he was desperately trying to heal with Reishi manipulation.

" Stupid Shinigami , i'm aware of how strong you Captains are. Thanks to Lord Takuma, i'm one of the Strongest Quinces in the army . My name is Haru Kiyoshi, otherwise known as Quincy # 13. I have the ability to steal Reishi from my opponent, i only get stronger. The Stern Ritter are far above your average fodder Quincies. " Haru taunted as he wields the sword like Selee Schneider " Now goodbye !" he shouted as he goes to behead her but we blocked his strike.

" We won't let you do that ! " i said to him as i pushed him off me.

" It would be a cold day in hell before i let you harm a beautiful lady " Shunsui replied as he readied his sword.

" Sōgyo no Kotowari (双魚理, Truth of Pisces) " i chanted as i released my Shikai creating a small lightning storm.

" Sneer Katen Kyōkotsu (花天狂骨, Flower Heaven, Crazy Bone) " Shunsui chanted as he crosses his two blades together forming a cross-shaped formation with his tachi in his right hand facing upward and his wakizashi facing forward.

Me and Shunsui swung our swords and fighting together for a while, we were able to hold our own a bit however he was still able to overpower us using the Selee Schneider not as an arrow as it was meant to be used as but as a sword . He then glanced an eye at Kumiko Sarugaki .

" I see, i can't have more Shinigami born today. You're going now know how it feels to lose a son and a wife " Haru shouted as he puts the Selee Schneider into the arrow at the same time the baby was born.

However instead of the mother or the baby being hit by the arrow, it was Nado Kotetsu who took the hit for the child and mother so they can live another day.

" NOOO! " Unohana shouted in agony as she grabs on to her lover as his body vaporizes into spiritual particles.

" It looks like there is no longer a medic around the area " Haru stated coldly as he turns his arrow at Sarugaki but he was then stabbed by Unohana in the knee with the Seele Schneider through his kneecap.

" How 's that ? You just took an arrow to the knee ! " Unohana stated in anger so intense that it literary creeped me out.

" Oh no, Unohana has snapped. We're all in trouble ! " Hikifune stated in terror as Unohana's spiritual energy increased to frightening levels.

" BANKAI ! " Unohana shouted as she released a murderous aura around her as she released a blinding green aura which emitted a demonic eerie roar which surrounded the area. Within seconds Haru was surrounded by a ghastly ghostly green mist around his body.

" What's going on ? " Haru asked.

" Suffer the worst pain imaginable ! " Unohana shouted as all the sudden Haru's torso explodes with blood reveal his intestines which spill out of him.

" ARRRUGUGGHGGHGHHARRGWH! ! " Haru shouted in unimaginable pain as his intestines then wrap around his body acting as tentacles.

" Yes, feel every ounce of pain ..suffer... DIE! DIE ! " Unohana shouted like a psychopath as she used the guys own intestines to squeeze and rip off the guys arms.

" ARRRUGGGGHGHG! STOPPP , PLEASE STOP ! " Haru shouted begging to live but Unohana wasn't listening anymore .

" I must make those who wrong me suffer ... Now you will become my plaything ! " Unohana shouted as if she was processed by a demon.

" Stop it , that's enough Unohana ! " i shouted as i rush towards her.

" No, Ukitake ! " Hikifune shouted as she tackles me down. Shunsui was paralyzed with fear while keeping the young baby and the mother safe.

Haru's boy was being ripped apart as if he was in a slaughter-house. Blood spilled all over the sands as well as chunks of flesh, muscle tissue and guts . It was beyond gory , the already weakened Haru was powerless to escape the attack and now he is being tortured to death . Unohana was manipulating the water in his body to cause such devastating damage to him. She was making sure to keep him alive long enough to feel all the pain before he died.

" This is getting boring, time to end this ! " Unohana said with a psychotic grin as she use her right hand and to create an explosion of blood and gut occurred sending organ tissue , bone fragments, brain matter and other debris everywhere covering us with drops of blood .

Unohana collapsed out of her Bankai state and fell unconscious after going on a homicidal rampage . We failed to save Ren Hanako and we lost Nado Kotetsu in our first mission however we were able to kill one of the Stern Ritter and rescued Kumiko Sarugaki. Unohana's brutal murder of Haru Kiyoshi caused a loss of morale and allowed us to recapture district # 3543.

216 years ago

1 year has passed in the Soul Society . Kirio Hikifune survived the devastating injuries inflicted on her however she was out of action for 6 months since Squad 4 had no Captain . Kumiko Sarugaki didn't survive for she died giving birth to her daughter Hiyori Sarugaki several hours after the battle of district # 3543. Kirio adopted Hiyori into her family and watched over the little girl . Meanwhile Unohana has been in a deep depression due to the lost of her lover Nado Kotetsu and has resigned as Vice Captain of Squad 1 due to the fear of her Bankai combined with losing a husband like figure. No one has seen her since then.

Me and Shunsui have became Lieutenants. Shunsui was Squad 10's Vice Captain after the last Vice Captain Youta Shirogane was killed in battle by Quinces trying to recapture District # 1342 within the Falkland Islands. The current Captain of his Squad was Hideaki Yadōmaru, the father of Lisa Yadōmaru.

I went to visit Shunsui within his barracks when i encountered his Captain being bossy. He was a Middle aged man around his mid 30's with thinning black hair and a muscular figure .

" Damn it Shunsui, why are you so lazy ? " the Captain asked him.

" Calm down Captain , why wake me up so early ? " Shunsui asked him while still drunk.

" It's 3 P.M. , it's time you head to the meeting , after that you're going to be in charge of running the squad " his Captain answered.

" Why ? " Shunsui asked while yawning.

" Because i have a 97 year old girl that needs to go to a dentist appointment as well as the eye doctor . Start taking your job seriously or you're fired " Hideaki stated as he walks out of barracks the same time i came in.

" Ukitake, what's up ? " he said to me.

" I'm fine ! " i answered hugging him with a bro hug.

" Looks like you're getting used to your new place " he said to me.

" I have been looking everywhere for Unohana , have you seen her ? " i asked him.

" Last time i check she has been living by herself within District # 3 Īsuto shūryō (イースト終了East End ) North Rukongai 40 miles north of the Seireitei " Shunsui answered.

" I see, i'll visit her after work ! " i replied as we walked together to the Vice Captain's meeting chamber.

After going there, Me and Shunsui head to find her in the mountain, even having to scale the 2,400 foot mountain until we arrive at her small house. What i saw i wasn't prepared to see .

Unohana was pointing a sealed sword towards her chest and we going to kill herself. I charged into her and tackled her down holding her on the floor .

" Unohana stop this ! " i shouted at her.

" What are you doing here Ukitake ? Get out of her now ! " Unohana shouted at me.

" So you can commit Harakiri ? No way " i answered as i wrestled with her trying to keep her away from her long Nodachi.

" You fool, do you realize what i am ? I'm a monster who shouldn't be alive ! " Unohana stated as she was overpowering me. She was going to grab her sword but then Shunsui grabs it away .

" You're not a monster, you're a beautiful ,strong woman " Shunsui said to her as he holds her back.

" You don't get it, i can't live without Nado ! " Unohana shouted as she pushed me away and came at Shunsui and punched him in the stomach .

" ARRRGH! " Shunsui shouted in pain as he falls the ground.

" BACK OFF YOU TWO, I CAN'T LIVE WITHOUT MY BELOVED NADO ! " Unohana shouted with a thunderous shouted paralyzing the both of us with her Reiatsu as she goes to pick up her sword.

" I won't let you ! " i replied as i hold her down.

" You have no clue about what i am. I grew up alone within District # 80, i was forced to kill people and steal to survive . I hated everyone around me and everything that i started to take joy in killing. I killed hundreds of people and was a violent woman until i met Yamamoto and was adopted by him " Unohana said to me as tears come down her cheeks.

" How close were you to Nado ? " i asked her.

" Very close, we were supposed to marry today but then he died and i have nothing to live for . It was thanks to him i was able to put aside my violent bloody pass . He was the one who trained me in everything i know including medical Kidō. If anything my abilities were on par with his Lieutenant. Now that he's gone, i'm all alone again " Unohana explained to us .

" You're never alone Senpai, we would always be here for you " Shunsui stated.

" Unohana , i really care for you. You and i were close friends and it was because of you that i was able to become a Shinigami " i explained to her as i hugged her tight, Shunsui joined in the hug as well.

" I never realized that i had such loving friends ! " Unohana said to the both of us.

" We would always be here for you ! " Shunsui replied as Unohana calmed down and picked up her Nodachi and put it back it his sheathe.

" I guess i have to move on without my lover Nado. I need to get stronger for Nado, i would need to put aside my violent past and help the Soul Society right now. I need to lead the next generation of tomorrow by helping the Soul Society live another day " Unohana said to us as she kissed both of us on the check.

" It's good to have you back senpai ! " i said to her as i continued to hug on to her.

" So senpai, what are we going to do ? " Shunsui asked Unohana.

" You are both going to learn Bankai , i know the level of your power. Both of you can easily rival my power . If all three of us learn Bankai, we can probably help turn the tide of this war. I also need to master my Bankai to avoid future episodes like this " Unohana explained to us.

" Very well then ! " i replied as we walk away back to the Seireitei.

Two days later , Unohana was promoted to Captain of Squad 4 . We stuck in watching the Captains assembly with Shunsui to see Unohana get promoted.

" Congratulations Unohana, you're rapid rise to the ranks in the last 24 years and the fact you're the one of the two Shinigami to ever achieve Bankai while still in the academy along with your colleague Sasakibe shows that you are indeed a woman of legend " Yamamoto said to Unohana.

" I still have yet to control it , forgive me for my incompetence! " Unohana modestly replied bowing her head down .

" You look too down on yourself, it's not everyday we get a genius like you " said a man with dark skin and purple facial hair whose bald and has a thick mustache and beard with golden eyes, he wore a Captains robe and had a muscular build with a scar next to his left eye.

" I guess you're right Captain Shihōin ! " Unohana stated.

" Call me Lucas now , You're a Captain too. Don't speak so informally " he replied.

" So how about i get to know all your names " Unohana asked all the Captains.

" Well , you already know me Unohana. It's your old friend Kirio Hikifune " Kirio said to Unohana.

" I know , You were also my senpai, much like Nado was my senpai " Unohana replied.

" My name is Hotaka Iba , Captain of Squad 3 for 52 years and the wife of Danzō Iba " said a middle-aged woman with long hair who appeared to be in her late 400's.

" You already know me Unohana, i'm your mentor Ginrei Kuchiki. Captain of the 6th Division for 184 years " said the elderly man .

" Ryoichi Sasakibe, Captain of Squad 7 for 18 years " said a man with white hair in his late 400's with a Japanese ponytail on his head.

" Danzō Iba, the husband of Hotaka Iba and Captain of Squad 8 for 184 years " said an older blonde man with gray streaks on his head who looked like Iba.

" My name is Akio Muguruma, Captain of Squad 9 for 51 years " said a muscular middle-aged man with blonde hair and a flattop wearing a sleeveless Haroi .

" My name is Haru Hirako . Captain of Squad 12 for 69 years " said a man with black hair with buck teeth.

" My name is Asura Kotsubaki . Captain of Squad for 184 years " said an older man with thick sideburns and a beard and a scar on his left cheek.

" Where are the other two Captains ? " Unohana asked them.

" Kenpachi Kohaku is a no show as usual and Hideaki Yadōmaru has family business " Ginrel stated.

" Very well then, then i accept my appointment as the first seat of Squad 4 and i would try hard to make Nado's dreams come true " Unohana said to all the Captains.

201 years ago

The Quincy-Shinigami war waged on for the 39th year in a row. The Quinces killed a total of 158,400 Shinigami in the last 40 years overall. We lost 80% of our entire fighting force fighting off the armies of Quinces. The Quinces used superior Reishi suppressing powers to launch ambush attacks on us and attacked Shinigmai settlements across the world .

The hardest hit Gotei 13 Branch of the Tenien 7 alliance was the Oshu nation which lost half it's Captains and Vice Captains given most of the fighting took place within the European continent ,the birthplace of the Quincy race, they especially had it hard when they lost their Captain Commander to the leader of the Quinces. Captain Commander of the Ohsu division Dremaka Rovder.

He was the 2nd Captain Commander of the Oshu Gotei 13 who was a giant among men , he was at least 9 feet tail and known for his immense strength and had long white hair and a beard . The man died at age 888 and served as Captain Commander for 488 years after the original Captain Commander of the Oshu division Travis Wellington retired due to old age in 1312 and later died at age 980 in the year was of Russian descent and was well known for his immense strength that could rival even Yamamoto,at least within Shikai. He was said to be strong enough to toss entire islands and cause tidal waves with a single kick .

South Aijano was also fairly hard hit, losing 5 Captains and 4 Vice Captains in the period of 40 years. The Kyowakoku branch lost 4 Captains and 4 Vice Captains ,Goshu lost 3 Captains and 4 Vice Captains, Houbeki lost 3 Captains and 3 Vice Captains and our nation Aijano lost 2 Captains and several Lieutenants . The Nanbei nation was the least devastated by the war given the tactical genius of Coluptua Cinábrio, one of the original Gotei 13 Captain Commanders.

Coluptua Cinábrio was the only one aside Yamamoto to fully remain Captain Commander since the Gotei 13 and Tenien 7 were founded, and at the time the only female Head Captain within the Gotei 13 history . Yamamoto and her were polar opposite on almost every level. Yamamoto was strict and old fashion and wanted to preserve traditions and culture's and was quick tempered and brutish, preferring might over strategy within battle and acted as old as he looked . Coluptua Cinábrio on the other hand was carefree and playful and even childish at times, it also didn't help that she never seem to age past 16 years physically whereas Yamamoto was an elderly man . She was given the title " Reaper Tactician " which meant that she had never failed a mission in leading her troops into battle. She's unmatched by anyone in the area of Kidō within the last 1,000 years and has developed her own unique Kidō and has psychic and light based powers for her Zanpakutō . She was also known as the strongest female Shinigmai until Yoruichi and Unohana became Captains.

Cinábrio's invaluable intelligence and Yamamoto's brains were key factors of wining battles in this war and had not for them, we probably would've lost the war awhile ago . Thanks to their efforts , the Soul Society was able to kill off 181,017 Quinces and take back 2645 out of 4,000 districts from them. We then learned about the capital of the Quinces and learned about the Quinces real intentions from reports uncovered from the Stealth Division Commander Lucas Shihōin however at the cost of his life. We discovered the Quinces have became so desperate to end the long way that they have resorted to use Hollowification and Hollows to defeat us.

We were called into the meeting , this time the Lieutenants were allowed in the Captains chamber . Each Lieutenant would be beside their Captain . I was next to Captain Hikifune while Shunsui was with Captain Hideaki Yadōmaru. Yoruichi who was under depression was with Ginrei Kuchiki and Unohana was with her Lieutenant of 29 years, Takehiko Lemura .

The other people there were Taiki Shiba , Lieutenant of Squad 2 for 29 years,and the mother of Kaien Shiba, Kukaku Shiba and Ganju Shiba . Yuki Ise , Lieutenant of Squad 8 for 20 years and father of Nanao Ise , Hideaki Umesada, Lieutenant of Squad 9 for 27 years , Kenji Harugasaki, Lieutenant of Squad 11 for 52 years and Shin Saidō , Lieutenant of Squad 12 for 24 years.

" We got reports from the Late and recently deceased Lucas Shihōin that the Quincy leader Riku Takuma is now trying to use Hollowfication to increase the strength of the Quincy army so they can finish the Soul Society off once and for all " Yamamoto said to us.

" So they have grown desperate to finish this war ? " Shunsui asked.

" Those bastards killed far too many people to allowed to get away with their crimes " Yoruichi shouted .

" Calm down Lieutenant ! I know that you're going through a big loss but you need maintain composure " Ginrei said to the young princess.

" We only have one last resort left, we must launch a full-scale invasion on the Quincy Capital" Yamamoto said to us.

" A full-scale invasion ? " everyone questioned shocked to hear this.

" Central 46 has given us the command and permission to launch an attack within district # 1699 " Yamamoto answered.

" District # 1699 ? Isn't that all the way in Germany ? " Shunsui asked the Captain Commander.

" Correct, the Quinces originated at that part of the world .Our goal is to force the Quinces into an ultimatum between facing extinction and being closely monitored by the Soul Society " Yamamoto explained to us.

" But what about the innocent people in that city ? " Unohana asked .

" We would try to avoid civilian casualties and instead opt to capture them as much as possible . We must capture Pfeil Standort and kill the Quincy leader within the city " Yamamoto commanded as we all gathered for the assault.

The Soul Society at the time had 39,600 enlisted Shinigami left. We began our march to Pfeil Standort, a small city created by the Quinces hundreds of years ago that contained 85% of the worlds Quincy population 200 miles west of Berlin within the mountains. We were up against 51,000 Quincy soldiers in the heavily fortified city. Out of the 724,068 Quinces living within the city, 51,000 were active threats while the rest were civilians with low spiritual power and only basic Quincy powers to defend against small Hollows.

We weren't alone. The pro Shinigami remnants of the Ishida Clan also aided us within the battle. The pro Shinigmai Quincy lived under oppression and persecution of the Takuma regime and were attacked for being sympathetic to the Shinigmai. Ryusoken Ishida with 200 surviving Ishida clan members were able to amass 17,000 rebels against Takuma within the final invasion . The Ishida Clan helped us greatly in countering the Takuma Clan army and helping us in key battles.

Fighting broke out almost immediately as we fought through the Quincy rain of arrows . Swords clashed against bows as we struggled against the powerful barrage of Quincy arrows . Takuma's army was based on the Ancient Vandenreich army that was much smaller than the forces we were fighting at the time. The Vandenreich at the time of the formation of the Gotei 13 were only large enough to challenge the Aijano branch of the Gotei 13, Takuma's Quincy army was enough to challenge the entire Tenien 7.

The Stern Ritter were the highest ranking Quincies aside from Takuma himself . Unlike his ancestor Bach, he based power on number rankings instead of letter rankings. He was #0 and was comparable to Yamamoto himself , Quincies # 1 to #7 were all at the level of other Captain Commanders, Quinces 8 # to 20# were on the level of ascended Captains who were above average Captains but shy of Captain Commander level skills or Reiatsu like myself,Shunsui, Unohana, Ginrel, Yoruichi and Tessai and Quinces and #20 to #100 were average Captain level .

Yamamoto fought the leader himself , the newly appointed Oshu leader Shanodart Civronadon fought Quincy # 2, the Captain Commander of South Aijano fought Quincy # 3. Maxim Primero, Captain Commander for less than 100 years fought Quincy # 4, the Captain Commander of the Kyowakoku branch fought Quincy # 5, the Captain Commander of the Goshu branch fought Quincy #6 and Coluptua Cinábrio fought Quincy #7. Ryusoken Ishida fought Quincy #1 because that Quincy was responsible for the death of his first wife and was second to Takuma in power.

The Jadagrmee were lower ranked Quinces that vary within power with Quinces being between #101 and # 200 being Vice Captain level, # 200 to# 2,000 were all seated officer level Quinces with Quinces between #200 and # 275 being on par with 3rd seated officers . Below them were the Soldat who were numberless grunts that made up most of the 51,000 Quinces within the Capital , Unohana and Shunsui took on a great majority of the Quinces killing most of them that go in our way.

We then bumped into 3 of the strongest Quincy enforcers. One of them was Nikolaus Wendelin, a tall Quincy who had pale skin and red hair who was ranked # 18 in the army . The other one was Sylvia Fränze, a blonde hair woman with jade green eyes who was ranked #16 in the army and Josef Dominik the muscle of the group known for his brute strength and bald head and scars on his body, he was ranked # 11 in the army.

" Looks like we have ourselves a few Shinigami to take on ! " the female said to us as she goes to take us on.

" Listen you show surrender yourselves now our we would be forced to kill you " i said to them.

" As if, you started these wars Shinigami, it's time we finish this once and for all " Nikolaus said to me.

" I guess it can't be avoided !" Shunsui stated.

" We just have to kill all of you then ! " Unohana replied .

" We would be the ones to wipe out the Shinigmai race and make humanity free from your control " Sylvia replied.

" Unohana, you take on the brute , i'll handle the lady over there " Shunsui said to her.

" That leaves me with the leader then ! " i replied as they go from a distance and fight their foes.

" Very well let's get this started Shinigami ! " Nikolaus stated.

" Fine then ! " i replied as we fought each other within the area.

I dodged several shots from his bow as he kept coming at me with fast shots with his bow . I came at him with my sealed sword but he proved to be too fast for me to catch.

" Pfeil Regen (German/Dutch for Arrow Rain )" Nikolaus chanted as he rains down thousands of arrows at me but i was able to dodge most of the shots . I then was forced to use my Shikai.

" Sōgyo no Kotowari (双魚理, Truth of Pisces) " i chanted as i released my Shikai to block his attack and then fires back all his arrows at him but the guy dodges the shots.

" You survived that attack, and your sword has changed but how were you able to fire arrows ? That's impossible , Shinigami can't use Quincy arrows" Nikolaus said to me.

" This is my Shikai Sōgyo no Kotowari (双魚理, Truth of Pisces), it reflects all projectile based attacks against me . There's no way you can fight against me Quincy " i explained to Nikolaus.

" I see. I guess my arrows have no effect on your Shikai, i guess it's time to use this " he said to me as he pulls out a thin, silver-colored weapon that sports a glowing blue blade.

" What is that ? " i asked him.

" It's called Seele Schneider (German for Soul Cutter) . It's similar to a chainsaw . The surface of the blade is formed by spirit particles which constantly revolves around 3,000,000 times per second " Nikolaus explained to me.

" I see, so it's like a sword " i asked them .

" Let's put that to the test " he answered as we clashed attacks with each other.

We continued to fight each other with both of us clashing attacks with each other . I fought with everything i got against him. My Shikai couldn't absorb his energy blade because it's being cancelled out by the blades ability to absorb spiritual energy from the opponent .

" I already figured out your weapon . Your weapon isn't for cutting ,due the your blades rapid vibrations, it steals the Reiatsu of anything it cuts . Given you were playing defensive all this time, i figured out that you were trying to trick me into attacking you head on so you can absorb spiritual energy from me increasing your attack power and giving you the edge in battle , you're ability doesn't work against my Sōgyo no Kotowari (双魚理, Truth of Pisces) " i explained to my opponent.

" I see, very well then. I guess i can't beat you in this state . I'll just have to use the full extent of the Quincy's power " he replied as he removes the pin on his glove releasing a massive amount of spiritual energy .

At the same time there were 7 more burst of spiritual energy from a distance . One was coming from where Unohana was fighting at, the other were Yamamoto was fighting at, the third were Shunsui was fighting at, the fourth being were Ginrei was at and the final one being were Captain Hikifune was fighting at and the last two were from Yoruichi and Tessai's location. The spiritual powers were each beyond any normal Captains power .

My opponent emerged out of the smoke to reveal that he had gained a more battle-ready form of the standard Quincy attire, with the Sanrei Glove's bow separating from itself and remaining in the users hand, and what appears to be armor covering their left side of his arm. The shoulder armor was silver-colored, bearing the common blue Quincy cross, while the white clothing area of the outfit contained rows of parallel blue vertical lines. A blue, flame-like object resembling a quiver of pure Reiryoku formed on the Quincy's right shoulder.

" What is this spiritual pressure i'm sensing ? " i asked the Quincy.

" You think we would go to war against the Soul Society without an trump card ? This trump card is known as Quincy: Letzt Stil (滅却師最終形態（クインシー・レツトシュティール）,Destruction Sage: Final Form) " Nikolaus explained to me.

" What ? " i asked shocked to see such terrifying spiritual power.

" Quincy: Letzt Stil (滅却師最終形態（クインシー・レツトシュティール）, Destruction Sage: Final Form) gives us 100 times more power. While in this form, i can absorb energy from my surroundings at such an alarming rate that it actually deconstructs spiritual objects. In this form, there's no way that even a Captain can beat us. All the 7 remaining Stern Ritter have this power activated within them " Nikolaus explained to me.

" I see , still you can't maintain that form for very long and once you run out of energy , you lose your Shinigami powers " i stated to him.

" I aware of that , that's why i absorbed the risk of Hollows to enhance our body's durability to bypass the limits of our human bodies. Now we're unstoppable " he said to me as he came at me with his blade easily overpowering me and shattering both my Shikai blades.

I was being overpowered by Nikolaus immense power. I also felt the others having a similar problem against their foes . I was slashed up by his Seele Schneider which inflicted deep gashes on my body and was overpowered by his attacks. This was the first time i came to actually dying.

I was lying on the ground face down when he aimed right at my head .

" Time to end this ! " Nikolaus said to me as he then put the Seele Schneider in his bow and aimed at me.

" Bankai ! " i chanted for the first time . I pick up both swords from the ground. My katanas were jagged and resemble a lightning bolt, it still maintains a large red rope-like chain but the squares are replaced with symbols of the lightning god. I was wearing a light blue robes over the kimono, light beige hakama and blue shoes with my clothing resembling that of traditional Japanese Shinto priests. My hair is spiky and wild similar to a Super Sayain 3 with Bio-electricity around me " Bankai:Sōgyo no Kotowari, Hanenaka Raijin Kishōshin (双魚理,雷神雷神気象神 Truth of Pisces; Blade of the Lightning and Weather God) " i chanted as lightning surges around my body .

" I see, you think a Bankai would make a difference to me ? The last Shinigmai would fought us with Bankai was the Captain of Squad 2 and while he held his own, once my friend Klaas Gereon used this form not even his Bankai made a difference . He thought he could be a hero and protect his daughter while fighting us however he stood no chance against us " he said to me.

" I see, but i guarantee you that my Bankai isn't an ordinary Bankai " i replied.

" Please this should be easy " he mocked as he shoots an arrow at me however i used Shunpo to dodge the arrow at the arrow hits a nearby mountain blowing it up to bits from the Reiatsu. I then used Shunpo to slash him from behind cutting his back " ARRGH !"

" Like i said before, my Bankai isn't an ordinary Bankai. I have trained under intense training with Captain Unohana and Captain Yamamoto for nearly 15 years to achieve this power " i stated.

" Then let's see who wins ! " Nikolaus replied as he shot another arrow at me but i was able to dodge the shot and jump up to attack him with my Bankai.

" Tatsumaki Kaminari (竜巻雷Tornado Lightning) " i chanted as i created a tornado made of lightning.

" Pfeil Regen (German/Dutch for Arrow Rain )" Nikolaus chanted as he rains down thousands of arrows at me.

" Mizuarashi(水嵐Water Tempest )" i countered as i blocked the blasts with a water pillar " Denkō Shiogarō (電光潮餓狼Lightning Tidal Fury)" Ukitake chanted as a massive tidal wave of lightning and water is formed around Nikolaus and closes in on him .

" Heilige Weisen Herrschaft (German/Dutch for Sacred Sage Dominance) " he chanted as he absorbed all the energy from my Denkō Shiogarō and then gathered all that spiritual energy into his Seele Schneider.

" This isn't good ! " i said to myself as he aims the arrow at me.

" You're good , you're the first to force me into this form however i must crush you Shinigami in the name of the Quincy " he said to me as he shoots a Seele Schneider enhanced arrow at me.

" I guess i have no choice but to use this , Rakurai Nejishindō (落雷ねじを振動Vibrating Lightning Bolt) " i countered as i channeled lightning through my blades which cuts the arrow in half, the resulting explosion destroyed everything within a 6 mile radius.

" Impossible , my strongest arrow was cut in half with ease ! " Nikolaus said to me shocked to see his attack foiled by my sharp blades.

" If i'm correct , your Selee Schneider moves at 3,000,000 RPM, my Bankai blades each vibrate around nine million times per second, 3 times faster than the Quincy Seele Schneider. My Bankai also absorbs all energy that touches the blades. Now i have all the energy you have converted from the environment " i explained to the Quincy .

" Damn it ! " Nikolaus shouted as he fired a volley of arrows from his Letzt Stil form only for me to block and absorb them.

" Time to end this , Raijin Raiha ( 雷神の雷刃 Lightning Blade of the Thunder God) " i chanted as i charged up lightning around my entire body as both my blades of my Bankai fuse into a single lightning bolt that i was held with two hands.

" Then i'll end it with my strongest attack Zerstörung Bogen Licht (German/Dutch for Destruction Bow of Light)" Nikolaus replied as he summoned all the Reishi of the surrounding area at the very tip of his fingers to create a physical spirit arrow that possess a compact form .

I blocked the arrow using my two-handed lightning blade.

" It's so powerful ! " i stated as the arrow makes contact and expands in size .

" There's no blocking the strike . When Zerstörung Bogen Licht (German/Dutch for Destruction Bow of Light) makes contact with the target, it expands it's size as it engulfs the opponent in a massive explosion of Reiatsu that implodes inwards once it expands killing them with their own power as well as my full power " he said to me as his arrow expanded.

" I see, then i would have to put everything i got in this last strike " i replied as i manage to overpower the arrow and create a destructive wave of Reiatsu which causes a massive explosion which engulfs the battlefield.

The smoke clears up to reveal that Nikolaus was cut in half vertically from my Bankai. I was badly injured but survived the assault that almost caused me my life as my Bankai reverted back to it's sealed sword state. I woke up later to see that the city of Pfeil Standort was completely destroyed and that all the Quinces within the city were killed in the destruction of the hidden city and everything within a 40 mile radius was reduced to ashes.

I walked to see Yamamoto standing with Hotaka Iba who killed Quincy #73 ,Unohana who killed her opponent , Taiki Shiba who defeated Quincy #147 , Ginrei Kuchiki who killed Quincy # 8 , Yoruichi Shihōin who killed Quincy # 14, Kirio Hikifune who killed Quincy #15 ,Ryoichi Sasakibe who killed Quincy # 81 , Shin Saidō who killed Quincy # 63,Yuki Ise who killed Quincy # 187 , Akio Muguruma who killed Quincy # 27 , Hideaki Umesada who killed Quincy # 55, Shunsui who defeated his opponent, Tessai Tsukabishi who killed Quincy # 16 and Onmitsukidō Commander Hua Fēng who was mortally wounded and was rendered incapable of being a Shinigmai after killing Quincy # 36 and was being carried by Tessai. Then there was the Vice Captain of Squad 1 Chojiro Sasakibe who killed Quincy #100 despite being a Vice Captain and killed 20 Vice Captain level Quinces single handedly.

" It is over, the war is finally over ! " Yamamoto said to everyone while having bandages all over him.

23,658 Shinigmai were wiped out the invasion that lasted only a few hours while all the 51,000 Quincy soldiers Quincy soldiers were killed off including the Quincy leader Riku Takuma and all Stern Ritter . The Soul Society lost nearly 4/5ths of there Shinigami fighters .

We lost 4 Lieutenants and 5 Captains within the battle alone . One of them was Lieutenant Kagekiyo Kira of Squad 4 who died at age 265 after losing his life to Quincy # 120, leaving his wife of 15 years and his newborn son alone after serving 29 years as a Lieutenant . Another one of the Lieutenants killed was Takehiko Lemura of Squad 4 who died at 270 years old after serving 29 years as a Lieutenant and losing his life to Quincy #169 . Another victim was Lieutenant Kenji Harugasaki who lasted 52 years in Squad 11 to Quincy # 153 and then the death of Isamu Tsubokura from Squad 12 caused by Quincy # 147.

The Captains who died recently were Lucas Shihōin who served as a Captain of Squad 2 for 70 years and died at age 419,losing his life to Quincy # 14 who was later avenged by Yoruichi . Danzō Iba who served as the Captain of Squad 8 for 200 years died at age 561, losing his life to Quincy #19 . Hideaki Yadōmaru served 79 years as Captain of Squad 10 before he subcumed to death at 406, losing his life to Quincy #47 . Another one killed was Kenpachi Kohaku who served as the 7th Kenpachi ever appointed for 69 years and was the only Kenpachi to die from a war,killing himself and his opponent Quincy # 12 , all previous Kenpachi's are usually killed in battle by the succeeding Kenpachi . Another victim was Haru Hirako who served 85 years as a Captain and died at age 356 losing his life to Quincy # 66 . Asura Kotsubaki from Squad 13 was another Captain who lived 200 years and died at age 561,losing his life to Quincy #14 and then was the death of Kidō Corps Commander Kaoru Ushōda , who served for 204 years and was the best Kidō user within the Soul Society died at age 421 ,losing his life to Quincy # 16.

200 years ago

The war was finally put to a close. The Soul Society paid a heavy price for the Quincy-Shinigami war as both sides lost lives and the Gotei 13 was forced to cut back it's social services due to major budget cuts caused by the economical depression left behind the war. It took roughly 78 years for both the Gotei 13 and the Tenien 7 to fully recover it's 198,000 forces.

A Captain's meeting was called with all the new Captains appearing within the Captain Chamber . I was now Captain of Squad 13 drafted from the 5th division . I had my hair in a small ponytail ever since it grew a bit in the last 20 years . I then met my best friend Shunsui wearing his Captain's robe of the 8th division .

" Looks like you were promoted as well " i said to my best friend.

" Well after all that chaos we went through together , it's no surprise that we are now Captains " Shunsui replied.

" Things really have changed around here , Central 46 has been split on the decision what to do with the Quincies . Part of them want to eliminate the Quinces once and for all while the other half wishes they could live in peace among the humans. I personally prefer the Quinces to live " i said to Shunsui.

" I know what you mean. War is terrible , i hope we never have to fight battles this bad ever again " he said to me looking down.

" You're still sad because of your Captains death ? " i asked him.

" Not as much as Hotaka, she's still taking therapy sections to overcome the loss of her husband " he answered.

Unohana walks in with my former Captain Kirio Hikifune to talk with me.

" Hey Unohana , how's your day ? " i asked the purple haired Shinigami.

" Fine, looks like you both got promoted to the status of Captains " Unohana said to the both of us.

" Yeah, we worked pretty hard to get this far " Shunsui said to his senpai as he tries to flirt with Unohana only to get punched in the face.

" Not interested , i prefer men who aren't whores ! " Unohana replied.

" You're as strict as ever ! " said a voice from a distance as Yoruichi walks with Tessai. Yoruichi was now the Captain of Squad 2 and the 22nd Head of the Shihōin Clan. Despite being a 140 year old girl, she was well-developed and had long hair that she wore in a headdress common among the clan with a golden-yellow kimono over her Captains robe. She had C-cup size boobs and she looked much like her current self however she was very serious and still recovering from the death of her father.

" Yoruichi , it seems you have became the new Head of the Clan " i said to her.

" I have, it was just too soon. I didn't really want it to happen like this " she said to me with a sad look on her face.

" Cheer up , at least you can help out the people you care the most for " Tessai said to her coming to her wearing a standard Shinigami robes with an ornate dark blue robe with a large upturned collar and the symbol of the Kidō Corps on it. He also carried a shakujō. His hairstyle was cornrowed but was styled into little horns, standard Shinigami robes with an ornate dark blue robe with a large upturned collar and the symbol of the Kidō Corps on it. He also carried a shakujō. His hairstyle was cornrowed but was styled into little horns. He had only small peachfuzz on his lips given he was only 180.

" You are the youngest Captain in the history of the Soul Society Yoruichi " Hikifune stated.

" No one has ever become Captain at age 140 years old and you were made Lieutenant shortly after being in the academy for 1 1/2 years by me. I always knew you had such potential " Ginrei said to his former Lieutenant.

" I guess i shouldn't complain too much then, i'm not the only one who lost their love ones and family. My father doesn't want me moping around like this " Yoruichi replied as she wipes the tears from her eyes.

" It's going to be fine ! " Tessai replied comforting the younger woman .

" Thanks Tessai, you and Kisuke are the reasons why i became a Shinigami " Yoruichi replied.

" It's too bad Kisuke isn't interested in becoming a Shinigami " Tessai stated.

All the sudden , everyone went silent as Yamamoto walks into the chamber with the other Captains coming into the room.

" It seems that today that we have 5 new Captains within the Gotei 13 . We also found a new Captain to fill in the ranks for Squad 10 " Yamamoto said to us as the white-haired Captain comes down to greet us.

The man was around 6 feet high and had long white spiky hair. He resembled his son greatly as an adult . He was a third seat within Shunsui's squad who achieved Bankai around the same time we have and slain two Captain level Quinces . He was Sora Hitsugaya , the leader of the Hitsugaya lower noble family .

" Looks like the show has finally begun ! " the young noble said to all of us.

" I heard alot about you young Sora ! " Girnel said to him.

" You're the first 3rd seat to ever achieve Bankai within the last several hundred years . A gifted prodigy like you is something we rarely see " Hikifune said to the young lad .

" Thanks ! " Sora replied as he bowed to her.

" You guys are now the new Generation of the Gotei 13 , your job is to lead a new future for the Gotei 13 " Yamamoto said to us as we all walked out the conference .

I then met with my former Captain Kirio Hikifune who hugged me happy to see me promoted. Me, Shunsui and Unohana were hanging out with each other .

" This is such a great day for you , you were promoted to Captain " she said to me.

" Yep, now i'm ready to start helping out the people in the future " i answered.

" Hopefully the Soul Society could stay this peaceful for many years to come " Shunsui said to us happy to see peace in the Soul Society.

" There's still the issue of the treatment of the Quinces , we need to find a humane situation to deal with the Quincy problem like we did with the Bount situation " Unohana stated.

" Yamamoto has that handled, all the Quinces i heard have been relocated to areas under Shinigami watch thanks to the Onmitsukidō Commander Yoruichi " i replied.

" I never want to fight another war like this again " Shunsui said to us.

" Same here ! " we all replied.

Present day

3rd person pov

" How ironic is it that 200 years l'm now dead in the middle of the wasteland in another warzone. I can't even feel myself anymore... the world itself has gotten silent ... i feel myself fading from this realm...maybe i can finally unite with Mashra after so many years but then again ... i'll be leaving my current lover behind... " Ukitake said to himself as his conscious vanishes.

Meanwhile at Konoha General Hospital

Tsunade arrives at the hospital with 3 minutes remaining to save Jiraiya.

" Tsunade, what are you doing here? " Shizune asked.

" No time for questions, give me your energy " Tsunade answered in a panicked tone.

" Why lady Tsunade ? " Shizune questioned.

" Jiraiya is going to die any minute now , i lost nearly all my Chakra in battle right now which is all the more reason why i need yours " Tsunade explained to Shizune.

" I only have 50% of my Chakra, i'm afraid even if i give you all of it that you probably still not have enough " Shizune stated.

" Let us lend you our Chakra ! " Sakura stated .

" Me too ! " Ino replied.

" Wait, if you two give up all your chakra, who would heal the patients ? " Tsunade asked them.

" Don't worry , i'll use the remaining 1% of chakra to heal the others " Katsuyu answered.

" Thanks Katsuyu ! " Tsunade stated.

" This should only take a minute Tsunade for the chakra transfer to be complete " Shizune said to the busty blonde.

" That's more than enough time , it should only take me 30 seconds to heal Jiraiya and around 45 seconds to arrive at his location and if by some chance i barely have the time left , i can use Katsuyu to reverse summon myself to where Jiraiya is at. Overall i should have 45 seconds to spare " Tsunade explained to everyone as she lets herself get healed .

Meanwhile at West Konoha highlands

Shunsui is barely standing from his battle with the Legendary toad sage . Shunsui has a light slash across his forehead and his left cheek piercing the dermis as well as a light slash on his right wrist , a mild gash cutting his right arm and another one crossing the right side of the chest slightly below the ribs to the left pelvis damaging the debris of the skin and lightly cutting the hypodermis . Shunsui has a deep slash through the hypodermis and cutting the musdremis and cutting the muscle tendons on his left leg and he lost his left arm in the battle as well as a large 2nd degree burn on his torso and 1st degree burns all over his body.

Jiraiya is down on the ground struggling to breath as blood comes out of his mouth. He has a massive X shape gash through his entire torso cutting through his ribs and cutting through his lungs deeply. The massive gash as severs his jugular vein and carotid artery across his neck with a mild gash and slashes through the liver , stomach pancreas, kidneys and small and large intensities but the X shape mark meets at the center right at Jiraiya's heart cutting deeply into it causing massive blood loss in a rapid rate as blood comes out of him like a waterfall.

" I barely made it out alive there , it's been 200 years since i came this close to dying " Shunsui said to himself as he struggles to move.

" To think you were forced to use your Bankai in battle once again, it's quite the rare site " Katen Kyōkotsu said to the hairy Captain.

" I'm far too banged up to move much and worse yet... i can't sense Ukitake's spiritual power anywhere " Shunsui said to his spirit.

" You don't think that he... " Katen Kyōkotsu stated.

" There's no way he'll ever die. Ukitake might not look it but he's actually pretty tough to kill .Let's head back to Squad 4... these wounds are really painful " Shunsui stated grunting from the pain limping on his right leg.

" Right ! " Katen Kyōkotsu replied as they walk away from Jiraiya.

Meanwhile Shima and Fukasaku emerge out of the Barrier: Toad Gourd Prison and go to aid Jiraiya who has fallen to Shunsui's attack.

" Jiraiya Boy, he's down ! " Shima shouted.

" Damn it, he lost ! " Fukasaku said to his wife as they rush to their students aid . They go on top of the body and see that he's severely injured.

" He has no pulse !" Shima stated.

" No , it can't be ! " Fukasaku replied as he starts to form tears in his eyes as well as Shima.

" He's in a comatose state and is bleeding out badly, he's alive but barely " Shima shouted.

" We need Tsunade here as soon as possible , if he bleeds out any more, he'll die " Fukasaku replied.

The line of life and Death

Jiraiya's pov

Am i dying ? Have i..failed ? I guess this is the inevitable fate of all beings . The saying of the Shinobi that i was taught my whole life . It's not about how a Shinobi lives, but how he dies . The life of a Shinobi is not measured by how he lived , but rather what he did before his death. When i look back at it , my life was full of failures...I was always turned down Tsunade , i couldn't stop my friend Orochimaru from leaving the village , i failed to protect both my student Minato and my sensei Hiruzen. Compared to the heroic deeds of the great Hokages before me and the feats of the current Hokage, my accomplishments have been petty and insignificant .

I always wanted to die like them. The tale of one's life is decided by how it ends . I lived believing that my failures would build character , and that they were trials that honed my skills. And in return ...I would accomplish a deed so great that it would obliterate all of my failures, and i'd die a death worthy of a true Shinobi . The great toad sage prophesied that i would lead a revolutionary .A revolutionary that would bring great change to the entire Shinobi world, and that i would also have to make a big decision .

Who would've thought that a kid like me would amount to anything much less one of the Legendary Sannin. I was born on November 11, 1948 . I never knew my parents and was adopted by Hiruzen. Like my former student, i was a failure and really was looked at as a fool.

44 years ago

I was dead last in the academy and i barely got through my classes. A year have passed ever since we been in the academy. It was my second year in the Ninja Academy and i was taking my test .

" Okay then instead of self introductions , I want each of you to demonstrate your ninjutsu skills ! Don't worry you aren't going to be is just so i can asses how to proceed with our ..we'll do a basic Jutsu, Bunshin (分身の術Clone Jutsu) Umm...First up is Orochimaru " the teacher said to us as i saw a kid with pale skin and long black hair walk up to do the test

" Clone Jutsu is child's play " Orochimaru said stoically and calmly as if he was already a skilled ninja.

" Shut up, you always act so smug ! " i shouted.

" Shut up, you buffoon ! " Orochimaru replied with a cool tone.

" Don't interrupt Orochimaru focus ! " said a young girl .

" Okay , Orochimaru .Try it ! " the teacher commanded.

" Okay ! " Orochimaru replied as he does Ram →,Snake → and Tiger seals in 3 seconds to use the jutsu " Bunshin (分身の術Clone Jutsu)" Orochimaru chanted as he creates a prefect clone of himself impressing everyone there.

" Amazing ! That was a prefect Bunshin " one of the girls said impressed by Orochimaru's immense talent.

" I can't tell which is the real deal " the teacher said also impressed by Orochimaru's clone jutsu .

" It's so obvious to me ! This one ! " i said while hitting the clone but as expected , i didn't know it was a clone.

" Idiot ! " one of the students yelled at me.

" H-Huh ? " i said shocked that i missed the attack.

" You shouldn't jump into attack so haphazardly " the teacher said to me.

" Got you ! " i shouted said i went to kick Orochimaru but i failed the kick after kicking a clone.

" Wrong again ! " Orochimaru replied as he jumps down from a tree he was hiding behind all this time.

" Orochimaru ! You're so awesome ! " one of the girls said with a fangirlsh blush.

" Amazing not only did he perform the clone technique at fast speeds but he created two clones while the real one moved elsewhere " Orochimaru stated shocked to see that.

" Humph! Big deal ,i can do Bunshin too ! Bunshin (分身の術Clone Jutsu)" i chanted as i only did one hand seal and creates a lifeless clone. Everyone laughed at my stupidity and incompetence .

" That kid is such an idiot ! " said a random kid.

" Damn it ... !" i said to myself while showing a piss off face of my failure.

" I don't know what your problem is, but quit lunging at me. Work on your ninja skills, you seriously suck at them " Orochimaru stated.

" What was that ? " i shouted as i tried to go to attack the kids but the teacher stopped me.

" Everyone! Quit making fun of Jiraiya! " the teacher said defending me.

" Sensei ! " i said cheerfully.

" Don't bother with this kid ! " the teacher replied coldly.

Me and Orochimaru developed a rivalry with each other during the academy school years of course this was no contest given Orochimaru was far above my level of talent as i recall from the day of our shuriken training.

" Orochimaru, show us the basics ! " my teacher stated.

" Okay ! " Orochimaru replied as he is met with the same amount of praise as usual from Tsunade and many other girls .

" Sheesh ! That Orochimaru always acts so arrogant ! So how come he's so popular ? " i shouted in jealously while Orochimaru threw 6 shuriken with such speed and precision that they all hit the same log.

" Oh, well done Orochimaru ! " my teacher stated.

" Alright Orochimaru, you're so cool ! " said one of the fan girls

" Hah! Show off! i can do that too ! " i arrogantly taunted.

" All right ! " i replied psyched and posed to win however i failed epically with my own shuriken hitting a tree 5 inches near my teacher. One hitting the fence 30 feet away one hitting 10 feet near the first log ,two hitting the tree left of the log and the last one 7 feet left of expected everyone then laughed at me for my failure.

" Are you shitty me, everyone of them missed " one of the students laughed .

" Ha i was just fooling around ! " i said trying to play it off as if i was kidding around but no one bought that for a second.

" Right , sure you were ! " Orochimaru laughed.

" Sensei! One more ! Just let me do it one more time! I'll get serious this time " i stated.

" No, that's enough ! " my teacher replied.

" Damn it ! " i shouted.

" Okay who's next ? " the teacher asked.

It didn't matter which area i challenged Orochimaru, i was outclassed by him. Many people thought i was a hopeless cause who would never become a Ninja however my rivalry with Orochimaru however helped me improve on my abilities.

41 years ago

3 years really helped improve my skills however the improvements to my skills were slow and still substandard to a Genin whereas Orochimaru achieved Genin level skill and Tsunade achieved Genin level strength which wasn't surprising at all given she was from the Senju clan and the clan were naturally talented in Taijutsu.

I took the Genin test with my friend and rival Orochimaru under the Third's tutelage to see if i was comparable to a Gennin. Orochimaru looked no different than he did in the academy only he was taller as well as me. Hiruzen had a small goatee and short dark brown, spiked hair while appearing to be in his 30's. He has been in power as the Hokage for 17 years and was well known to be one of the strongest Kage in existence next to the First Hokage and titled God of Shinobi.

" So i'm going to become a Genin today ? Oh boy i can't believe i have to fight you old man " i said to my sensei only to get in the head by my sensei.

" Even though i'm going easy on you, you're still a predictable dwarf ! " Hiruzen said to me as i feel on my head .

At the moment i then saw a beautiful young girl around my age who had light-skinned woman with light brown eyes and straight blonde hair with shoulder-length bangs framing both sides of her face tied in a high ponytail. She wore a light blue kimono with lavender straps.

" Who's the cutie there ? " i asked my sensei.

" That's Tsunade . She'll be working with the two of you in a three-man cell. You know her, right Orochimaru ? " Hiruzen questioned him.

" She's the daughter of the Senju clan leader " Orochimaru answered.

" Hey there babe, i'm Jiraiya. Nice to meet you . It's okay if you write love letters later on " i said to her.

" And why would i do that ? " Tsunade questioned.

" Because i'm handsome and you have quite a slender body " i answered as i touched her flat chest.

" Why you dirty little pervert... .DON'T SCREW WITH ME ! " Tsunade replied in anger as she uppercut me 140 feet high and i landed face first on the ground with a large bruise to my face.

" The bell test is to see who's qualified to be in the team . There are two bells , get then and you pass ! " Hiruzen stated.

" But there are only two bells ! " i asked.

" Since there's only two bells.. " Hiruzen stated.

" At least one will have to tied to a log and fail the mission " Orochimaru answered.

" Very good Orochimaru. I would also tie you and eat lunch in front of you " Hiruzen replied.

" Hey Tsunade, if i get a bell , would you go out with me ? " i asked her.

" Fine however if you fail to get one, you would leave me alone " Tsunade answered.

" Alright ! let's do this !" i replied.

" Don't hold back, you can even use shuriken against me . You won't be able to get this unless you have the will to kill me " Hiruzen stated.

" But that's too dangerous sensei ! " Tsunade told him.

" Yeah! I don't want to kill the Hokage of all people " i arrogantly stated.

" Yeah coming from the guy with the lowest scores " Hiruzen replied calmly.

" I'm going to crush you ! " i shouted charging at Hiruzen but Hiruzen easily gets behind him and holds back his kunai.

" I didn't say start yet ! " Hiruzen stated.

" No way.. i couldn't see him at all ! " i said as i was shocked to see Hiruzen easily blitz me . That was how the whole training basically went , it was at this point i realized direct attack was useless against him.

Orochimaru and Tsunade applied stealth methods, staying hidden from Hiruzen however i still decided to call out Hiruzen .

" Let's fight like men, one on one ! " i stupidly said to the old man.

" Shinobi battle tactic # 1 Taijutsu. I'll teach you that first ! " Hiruzen sensei said to me as he holds out one finger .

" Do you think you beat me with just one finger ? Get real ! " i arrogantly questioned .

" Don't worry, with your weak attacks i can block with just one finger !" Hiruzen replied. This pissed me off to the point of charging head first and attacking Hiruzen with a series of attacks, each of which are easily dodged by him.

" Time to end this ! Hiruzen Style : Mind Striking Finger " Hiruzen chanted as he taps my head with his finger and knocks me out cold .

When i woke up, started to walk around the forest when i thought to found a bell.

" So many openings... ! " i said to myself as i rush to grab it only to be ensnared in a tree trap hanging upside down. Then sensei came to taunt me.

" You're a fool Jiraiya, falling for the oldest trick in the book . You are so idiotic ! " Hiruzen stated only for a tree to fall on him, that tree was where i was ensnared in . Tsunade then used the opportunity to steal the bell from him.

" Thanks for helping me get the bell dumbass ! " Tsunade taunted as she sticks her tongue and leaves the area. Once again i was out cold from the tree crushing me.

Next thing i remember was waking up to see Tsunade taunting me with the bell in my face.

" Hehehehehe, looks like i won the bet . You got to go to the log after all " Tsunade taunted.

" Shut up, you flat chested chopping board ! " i shouted .

" What did you say ,you perverted dumbass ? !" Tsunade yelled.

"Hey, now . That's enough! Tsunade and Orochimaru can go home now " Hiruzen sensei said to them.

" Okay! " Tsunade replied as she walked away from the area.

" Fine master " Orochimaru also replied as he walked away leaving me tied to the pole.

" It's amazing how dumb you are. Man, you're really hopeless... If you hope to ever be a ninja, how can you fall into such obvious traps ? Maybe what you're lacking is a goal..." Hiruzen said to me.

" Huh ? " i asked.

" Now ,let's see..Ah! we could try that ! " Hiruzen said to me.

" Try what ? " i asked.

" Don't get so excited. Just watch !" Hiruzen answered as he does several hand signs to do a Jutsu " Summoning Jutsu " he chanted as he summoned a monkey covered with white fur protruding from his sleeves and pants and had long white hair and sideburns as well as a goatee. His tail was also white and wore a black suit with mesh armour underneath, over with ma sleeveless kimono shirt with white trimmings and markings reminiscent of tiger stripes on it, held closed by a sash and he also wore a Konoha forehead protector.

" Awesome ! " i said impressed at what i saw .

" This is a Summoning Jutsu . You sign a contract in blood with an animal, and you'll be able to summon them at any time using Space-Time Ninjutsu " he explained to me.

" I wanna make one of those contracts too ! " i said to him.

" That's impossible " Hiruzen stated.

" Why ? " i asked.

" In the same way that different humans are destined to different fates, so is the animal that he's connected with " Hiruzen explained to me.

" So, what's mine ?" i asked him.

" Before trying to sign a contract, you need to improve your skills at molding Chakra and sealing" he replied.

" What more training ? " i pouted.

"Answers are always found in training! " Hiruzen replied.

It was that day that i got a goal and direction in my life . From that day, i started to take my training much more seriously. I started to walk on basically vertical walk by spending everyday walking up plateaus and trees while carrying heavy boulders and focused on molding my Chakra.

One day i saw Tsunade and Orochimaru walking around with Gennin headbands.

" Still trying to pass the test ? Face it, you don't have any talent " Orochimaru said to me.

" You think you can be my boyfriend . If i were to have a boyfriend, it would be with a genius like Orochimaru over a perverted moron like you " Tsunade replied as they both walk away.

" I'll show the both of you. One day i'll be the greatest ninja ever " i said to them as i lie on the ground thinking about my life.

" Now i know my life goal , i have to become the world's greatest ninja and impress Tsunade not to mention prove that i'm better than Orochimaru. Now it's settled, there's no time to waste! " i said to myself as i finally found a reason to become a Shinobi.

I then used the moment to do handsgins. I first used Boar then Dog then Brid followed by Monkey and Sheep.

" Wait! If you use Space-Time Ninjutsu without signing a contract first, no one knows what would happen ! " Hiruzen tried warning me but it was too late.

" Come on ! " i said to myself as i activated the jutsu but instead of summoning an animal, i was summoned to a faraway place .

The place looked a mystical paradise with a beautiful setting and oil like water. I then saw a blue snake facing off against a red frog wearing a blue jacket.

" I ,the great Jiraiya, will win this fight! " i said to the blue snake as it came at me but i used the strength i gained from training to grab it and throw it hundreds of feet high with pure raw strength.

" Heh, that should do it ! " the frog said to me.

" A frog talked ! " i said shocked to see a talking frog.

" Who are you ? What's a human doing here in Mount Myōboku ? " he asked me.

" What do you mean ? " i asked him.

" Come with me ! " he said to me as he took me to an altar with statues of toads next to a waterfall of oil.

"Fukasaku sama, i found a human child " he said to an elder frog.

" It seems you've arrived ...! " the elder frog said to me.

" You were expecting me ? " i asked him.

" The Elder Toad Sage foretold a prophecy that a human child will lose his way into Mount Myōboku , and he will bestow upon that child of the power of the toads and a prophecy " the old green frog explained to me.

" So,if that human is me, then what is this prophecy ? " i questioned him.

" Well, i don't know ! " Fukasaku answered.

" What do you mean, you don't know ? " i asked him.

" You'll have to stay here, train and wait for the Great Elder's prophecy " he answered.

"Wait a second! I wanted to become so strong so i can easily impress the ladies ! I don't give a crap about being popular to some toads" i said to the old man.

" Stop complaining. This is your destiny ! " Fukasaku replied.

" My destiny ? " i asked him.

" Yes. Since you managed to make you way to Mount Myōboku, there is no doubt that you're the chosen one " Fukasaku answered.

" The chosen one, huh ? Staying here and becoming stronger.. sounds pretty interesting ' i replied.

And thus began my training within the toads in Mount Myōboku and Konoha , spending the days of my youth training both in Sage and Ninjutsu techniques . It wasn't an easy task given how difficult the Sage Jutsus were not to mention the problems of maintaining a social life while and the stress of having to train in two different techniques.

39 years ago

2 1/2 years have passed since i came to Mount Myōboku. After coming here, i have truly gotten much stronger . I then started to think whether there's more to life than girls and wondered if there was more reasons to get stronger than to impress the ladies.

" Jiraiya ! " Gamabunta said to me.

" Yes ? " i asked him.

" The Grand Elder has called you. Hurry, your prophecy has arrived ! " Gamabunta answered.

" Okay then, let's go ! " i replied as i walked to the Elder's temple.

I then met the red skin elder who was around thousands of years old .

" Ah, you're here . Ah who are you ? " the Grand Elder said to me.

" Great Elder, it's Jiraiya ! Jiraiya ! " Fukasaku answered.

" Ah,that's right ! My, how you've grown... " the Grand Elder said to me only for Shima to start an argument with her husband.

" How dare you call the Great Elder a senile old geezer ? " Shima shouted.

" Now, 't fight. Couples should get along . By the way... who are you ? " the Grand Elder said to them then proving he was senile .

" Jiraiya ! The great elder had a dream about so listen carefully " Fukasaku answered.

" I shall now tell you about the dream, In my dream, i saw that you'd become a great perverted ninja of immense power " the Grand Elder said to me.

" A great perverted ninja ? " i asked.

" You would raise a student that would become a ninja revolutionary that would bring great change to the world of Shinobi . That is what i saw " the Grand Elder explained to me.

" A change ? " i questioned him.

" It will be either of great salvation of stability or a great cataclysm of destruction. The kind that this world has never seen before . One of those " the Grand Elder explained to me.

" One of those ? What do you mean ? " i asked him.

" You will be the one that will guide this revolutionary and one day, you will be forced to make a choice . The choice that will determine in which direction the change will go " the Grand Elder stated.

" What should i do, in order to make the right choice ? " i asked him.

" In my dream, you were traveling around the world, writing books " the Grand Elder answered.

" Books ? Why ? " i asked him again.

" I don't know . Maybe it will be a journey around the world to observe all of nature " the Grand Elder answered.

"Grand Elder, has it ever occurred that your prophecies have not come to pass " i questioned him.

" Never ! " the Grand Elder replied.

After training within Mount Myōboku and learning about my density, i head out to search the world looking for the child of prophecy. At this point, i was a Chūnin.

" Are you leaving ? " Gamabunta asked me.

" Yeah . Right now, there's no way i could lead a revolutionary or make the right decision . I need to go out and see more things and meet more people " i answered.

" I see ! " Gamabunta replied.

" Just like in the Great Elder's dream, i'll be traveling the world and, who knows, maybe even write a book " i said to Gamabunta as i head out to the outside world.

I traveled the world as a Chūnin looking for the child of prophecy. As i traveled around the world , the peace between the five Great nations became fragile , and aggressions between lands were increasing as was internal strife .

One day i encountered a destroyed temple somewhere around the world that i don't even remember. tall, bald man with an unusual body shape, possessing a very thick neck, no ears and a large jaw.

" Young man, why are you traveling ? " the older man asked me.

" I'm looking for my destiny. Someone saw me in a dream , and in that dream i was traveling the world " i answered explaining the prophecy i was given when i looked at the older man squatting down holding something in his hand.

" I can't believe i lost everything ! " the man said to me.

" Here. It's milk candy ! " i said to him but then i saw him holding a baby puppet.

" Thanks ! " the man replied .

" A puppet ? " i asked him .

" This child is telling me that destiny is not something you search for . It's something you hold on to once it presents itself . Mechanical skills like mines are of no use in these harsh war times but i guess a feudal lord will pay well for my services " the older man told me as he walked away.

I never said that older man again nor did i ever get his name but what he said about destiny resonated in my head and help shaped the thoughts in my head.

I also remember a time where i was within a bar with a beautiful lady while drinking sake and writing.

" Let's have some more fun ! " the woman with the purple kimono asked me while i was writing " Hey, what are you writing ? " she asked me.

" That's just riding the wave of time like this, it will not result in the change that we need for peace to be achieved " i answered.

" Hey, hey, if you're going to change anything, change me ! " the girl said to me .

" I guess.. that sounds like a lot more fun ! " i replied with a pen in mouth when i heard screaming within the gambling room.

" This is a scam ! As if i'd pay any money for this ! " said one of the gamblers as he was surrounded by 5 guys.

" Wait, i bought this fight ! " i said to everyone as i used my ninja skills to easily defeat the thugs.

Later that day. I took the guy i saved to another bar where i treated him to a drink. The man was large and bulky and had green eyes and orange hair. The Ninja i was with was a ninja from Kusagakure.

" Damn it ! What a cruel fate ! For the sake of my clan , i cultivated the land with what little knowledge i had ! " he complained to me .

" Here, have a drink . I've been trying to seek my destiny as well , but i haven't found it yet " i said to the man.

" My clan won't stand a chance against the ninja villages of the Great Nations " the man complained .

" You're wrong. I'm teaching some kids at a village. I'm teaching them how to fight back when faced with a harsh fate " the man stated.

" Heh, so you're gonna to stop all the fighting with education ? Drop all the pretty talk ! " the orange hair man asked skeptically as he goes to punch the guy only for the blue hair guy to disappear.

" No, it cannot however it's possible that i can teach them something to help point them in the right path " the man answered.

" Let me ask you, what are those choices ? " i asked him.

" Life or death. Those are the choices . The only thing i can teach them is how to survive " the blue hair guy answered.

I continued to search for the Child of Prophecy around the world . The one who would free this world of war and bring change and a new age to this world. One day i arrived at a run down village destroyed by the war when i hear an older man preaching a prophecy similar to my own.

" To bring ruin to this world, or to bring a peace that has never been seen before . That depends on everyone determination ! " the older man said to the crowd. While he as much older than me and had gray hair with some wrinkles, he seem to be the guy i might of been looking for.

" You might be the guy i'm looking for " i said to him.

" Oh ? " he asked.

" What would you do to bring peace to this world ? " i asked the older man.

" The world has started on an unstoppable path of war and strife . There's no stopping it! " the old man answered.

" But you just said that it depends on determination !How do we change the fates of these people ? " i questioned him.

" All you can do is pray . That's all we can do nowadays ! " he answered.

It turned out he wasn't the man i was looking for either. I continue to search the world looking for the Child of Prophecy when i encountered a burning village filled of innocent people . I was then attacked from behind by another ninja who almost hit me with a giant shuriken .

I dodged 5 kunai with one of them having a paper bomb attached to them which released smoke from it. I then saw another giant shuriken coming at me but i dodged it and used a substitution Jutsu to escape the attack taking cover on top of a tree escaping death when i sensed the ninja.

" That shuriken jutsu ! You're from the Fuma ,right ? ! Why're you attacking a village with people living peacefully ? You're a Shinobi too, right ? I'm traveling the world finding my student " i asked him.

" What an easygoing thing to do ! The balance between countries have fallen and we are in the midst of a great war . That village was destroyed because we received intel that Shinobi had infiltrated it " he answered.

" Just because of that ? " i questioned him.

" It's destroy or be destroyed ,in this world , if you hesitate ,you die ! " the man replied as i threw 2 smoke bombs at him and we clashed in the darkness

" You're not half bad ! " i said to him.

" If you're a Shinobi too, i can't let you live. Give up ! This is our fate as Shinobi " the green hair ninja said to me.

" Can i say something ? " i asked .

" I don't feel like listening! Just die ! " he replied as he stabs me with a kunai in the stomach.

" You should give up ..." i stated as it was a substitution log " On trying to make me give up ! " i replied as i cut him across his forehead with my kunai and forced him back.

" Even if you defeat me , other assassins will attack the village . As long as we are cursed in this ninja world ,there will be no peace " the ninja stated as reality set in

At this time , unstoppable battles were already taking place all over the world while i searched for the appreciate who would bring change to the world .

38 years ago

War finally broke out. I returned to Konoha after searching for the child of prophecy to aid my friends but first i needed to unwind and cut loose . I was a young 16-year-old guy doing what i did best. I was peeking at the fine ladies in the hot springs while cloaked in a invisibility jutsu.

"My my, those are some fine ladies there " i said to myself as i looked at all the fine naked ladies thinking of some dirty stuff to do with them but then i saw Tsunade there who has really grown in the last few years going from being flat chested to having D-cup boobs.

" What the hell ? " Tsunade shouted as she jumped out the water knowing i was there.

" Shit! I got spotted ! " i said to myself as i rush out the hot springs only to see Tsunade in front of me.

" JIRAIYA ! " Tsunade shouted in anger as she clenches her fist after undoing the invisibly Jutsu that i was hiding behind.

" Shit , Tsunade ! " Jiraiya said as she came close to me.

" How dare you peek at me ! " Tsunade shouted as she punched me 100 meters backwards. My internal organs were coming out of my chest and both of my arms were broken from the force of the punch. Had not for blocking her punch, she would've killed me instantly.

" Tsun...dae ! " i said to her as i fade into darkness, i couldn't breathe or move for a while. It took her 30 long hours to put me back together . My right lung was pieced by my left rib . My left kidney was ruptured by the force of the punch , my stomach was crushed by fragments of bone from my spine and my heart went into shock, i felt pain beyond belief .

" Jiraiya, are you okay ? " she said to me while i was in a hospital bed able to fully move.

" What a shame , i was hoping he would die so the world would be a less annoying place " Orochimaru sarcastically joked around.

" This is no time for your jokes " Tsunade scolded.

" Geez ,lighten up Tsunade . You did this to him, it's not my fault you have the temper of a rhino " Orochimaru replied.

" You need to control your temper much better Tsunade, we don't need you killing every guy who peeks at you " Hiruzen said to her.

" Hiruzen, Orochimaru. How long have i been out ? " i asked them.

" 30 hours, she hit you pretty good ! " Hiruzen answered.

Then suddenly a messenger came to Hiruzen with the dogtag of Tsunade's little brother in his hand with a grim look on his face , it was the doctor.

" We got bad news, Nawkai was killed in battle !" he said to us. At that moment Tsunade was thrown into shock and disbelief about the news.

" No, you can't be serious ! " Tsunade stated as she rushed out of my hospital bed.

Me and Orochimaru followed Tsunade all the way to where her dead brother was at. I arrived first with Orochimaru to see the body completely destroyed. Nawaki's body was so heavily mutilated that it was beyond recognition. His internal organs while eviscerated and were hanging out of his abdominal cavity. His face was gone with chunks of brain and fat covering the shattered skull. His heart was detached from his chest, his arms were cut into three with his right hand scatter and his clothes and lower body was mostly burned off.

Tsunade rushed behind us with a distressed look on her face but i stopped her from looking at the mutilated corpse of her younger brother.

" It's best you don't look Tsunade ! " i said to her.

" What difference does it make ? At the condition that body is in, she wouldn't even be able to recognize her little brother " Orochimaru stated in disturbing detail.

" Silence Orochimaru ! " i commanded him trying to make him stop spewing his venomous words.

" This is what happens in war , shinobi are just left on the battlefield to die .There are no doctors or healers to help them . It's too bad given the boy was so reckless , he probably thought he was invulnerable . He died a few days after receiving such a lovely gift " Orochimaru stated as he pulled out the necklace that Tsunade gave her brother.

" Why, why ,WHY ! " Tsunade shouted as she broke down crying. It was the first time i saw Tsunade break down and cry. She was always a strong girl who was tough and reserved and not to mention mentally strong.

" It's going to be ok Tsunade ! " i said to her hugging her.

" This better not be one of your pervy advances " she scolded .

" I'm not that fucked up, i would never take advantage of a girl down on her luck. You need comfort as a friend " i said to her as i carry her to her house.

" Thanks Jiraiya, but i need to be alone " she replied as she walked away.

I then saw the horrors of war itself and i understood what the Grand Elder Toad Sage foretold. War has brought atrocities on a far grander scales due to the use of high level Ninjutsu.

34 years ago

4 years have passed since the war began . Konoha was stick in another war against invading nations trying to expand their territory over each other competing for power.

Sunagakure was a major threat to us and fighting them for 4 years forced us into the defensive and Sunagakure was able to capture the Land of Rivers and were launching raids against us within the borders. Kikyō Pass was a warzone with hundreds of Shinobi fighting within the area.

Me, Orochimaru and Tsunade were promoted to Jōunins 2 years ago yet we all had strength and power far above an average Jōunin due to our advance training. Tsunade received special training from her grandmother who was the wife of the first Hokage, Orochimaru had mastered all the techniques Hiruzen taught him and learned hundreds of jutsu while i had the training of the toad sages and was developing a new jutsu at the time. All three of us were almost Kage level in strength.

Me , Tsunade and Orochimaru were marching with 3,000 troops to the battlefield when we were attacked by an enemy force from Sunagakure.

" We got company ! " Orochimaru said to us as he pulls out his katana .

" Another battle, when would these wars end ? " i asked my friends.

" This isn't the time for talks of peace Jiraiya, we have another battle to fight " Tsunade said to me as she charged into the front lines as well as Orochimaru.

We were up against an entire invasion force of 5,000 troops. They outnumbered us greatly however thanks to the skills that i processed as well as Tsunade and Orochimaru, we were able to push back the forces.

I then encountered an older man who was in his 40's who wore a turban over his heavy-lidded eyes that give him the appearance of actually having no eyes at all. He also has very long eyebrows that frame each side of his face and had brown hair .

" Surrender Konoha otherwise i would forced to kill you like the cockroaches you are " the man said to me.

" Who are you ? " i asked him.

" My name is Captain Ebizō, Commander of this unit " he answered with his sword drawn out.

" My name is Jiraiya, the student of the Third Hokage " i replied as i drew out my kunai.

We clashed attacks with each other within the forest of the country we have been fighting in . I dodged a slash from him while he dodged 5 kunai i threw at him as an counterattack.

" Kazesekinoha ( 風堰の刃 Blade of Wind Barrage) " he chanted as he swings his sword to create multiple wind projectiles at me but i dodges the blasts and countered with my own attack .

" Fire Style: Flame Bombs (火遁・炎弾Katon: Endan)" i countered as i fired a flame bullet at him but Ebizō dodges the fireball.

After clashing attacks for a while . I was able to overpower him and defeat him in combat .

" Surrender right now and leave this country ! " i asked the leader that i just defeat.

" I would never give up ! " Ebizō replied.

But all of the sudden i was hit by a cloud of purple poison which caused me to faint and fall down .

I woke up 3 days later when Tsunade has healed me up.

" That was too close for comfort ! " Tsunade said to me.

" Tsunade ! " i said to her.

" You were hit by a rare poison , you were one of few survivors of that battle " Orochimaru said to me.

" Luckily i was able to find a cure to it and form a cure for it " Tsunade explained to me .

" I guess i have you to thank ! " i said to her as i hug her.

" Thanks to you, i can now counter the poisons Sunagakure has been using against Konoha " Tsunade stated.

" How about a reward ? " i asked her as i grabbed her ass only to get punched in the face.

" Don't push your luck ! " Tsunade replied.

32 years ago

Two years had passed since the failed attempt to reclaim the Land of rivers, Konoha was winning the war thanks to the medical efforts of Tsunade and the revolutionary warfare tactic she invented of forming a medical ninja corp that can fight in the battlefield while healing the injured.

One year ago, Tsunade perfected the cure to every poison in the world as was the tide turner to the war. Tsunade successfully lead a team of only 500 troops against thousands of Sunagakure forces and defeated Chiyo, one of the oldest veterans of war in the world.

We were given a mission to take down Hanzo, an oppressive dictator within the Land of Rain within Amegakure. We became well-known for the success of our battles .

" You guys are given the utmost important assignment within this war and one which could help end the war " Sarutobi sensei said to us.

" What is it ? " i asked .

" You guys are now in charge of leading the invasion of Amegakure " Hiruzen answered.

" So why are we targeting such a small country ? " Orochimaru asked him.

" Because that country shares borders with the Land of Fire, Land of Wind and Land of Earth and it's ruled by an oppressive dictator strong enough to take on the 5 Kages . If we capture Amegakure, we can end this war " Hiruzen explained to us.

" Finally, i'm getting sick of all this war ! " i stated.

" Well then, what are you guys waiting for, let's get this party started ! " Tsunade boldly replied as we left to Amegakure.

We came with 3,000 troops heading into Amegakure when we arrived 50 miles south of Amegakure . We then encountered 1,000 troops led by the leader of the country , the legendary Hanzō.

" It looks like the leader showed up in person " i said to my comrades .

" Why would he be out on the battlefield himself ? Does he have a deathwish ? " Tsunade asked.

" Regardless, he just signed his death warrant " Orochimaru replied licking his lips pulling out his sword.

" It seems we got Konoha Shinobi to deal with, men slaughter them all " Hanzō said to his men.

" Alright men, take these guys down. Jiraiya, Orochimaru let's fight the leader himself " Tsunade commanded.

" Very well then ! " me and Orochimaru replied as we took battle positions and charged into battle.

We fought long and hard dodging the barrage of exploding kunai and shuriken as we moved down Amegakure ninja while Hanzō wiped out all of the attacking Konoha Shinobi. Once the smoke cleared up, it was revealed that the only ones alive was me, Orochimaru and Tsunade and Hanzō.

" Most impressive, you wiped out my forces fairly easy " Hanzō said to us.

" Well i can say the same thing about you , you're pretty powerful " Orochimaru praised him.

" Thank you, unfortunately for you guys, this would be the last time you guys ever breathe " Hanzō replied as he summons a massive salamander .

" There's only three of us left , he's getting ready for his next attack " Tsunade said to us as she pulls out a kunai.

" Very well then , thought it's going to be difficult to explain to Hiruzen about all these dead troops " Orochimaru sarcastically stated as he draws out his kunai.

" Don't worry Tsunade, they would all be given a proper burial somehow. Right now, we must avoid ending up like the fallen Shinobi ourselves " i said to them as i draw out my kunai.

" This guy is tough, it might be our final stand ! " Tsunade replied as she was the first to charge at Hanzō throwing a kunai at him but Hanzo dodges the kunai. Tsunade appears behind him with a flying punch but she's slapped down by the tail of the giant salamander Hanzō summoned. The force of the tail whip smashed Tsunade into a pile of rocks.

" Brute force won't be enough to beat me, Ibuse has a thing for me and would protect me from harm " Hanzō stated but he is then caught off-guard by Orochimaru .

" Seneijashu(潜影蛇手Striking Shadow Snakes ) " Orochimaru chanted as he ejects 5 snakes from his wrist binding down Hanzō.

" Good job Orochimaru ! " Tsunade said to Orochimaru .

" Jiraiya now ! " Orochimaru shouted.

" Right ! Fire Style: Dragon Flame Jutsu " i chanted as i breath flames through the snake and burn both Hanzō and Ibuse however it was a clone and the real deal was charging behind us.

" Shit, watch out ! " Orochimaru shouted as Ibuse was about to crush us with a charging strike and mow us down but Tsunade then appears and grabs the massive 50 foot salamander and tosses both Hanzo and Ibuse 50 feet away from us.

" Don't count me out just yet ! " Tsunade stated panting as rain started to down us as we stare at the powerful Kage.

" Not bad Shinobi however let's see how you deal against this " he stated as he throws 5 kunai at us with paper bombs.

" Tsunade, Orochimaru watch out " i said to them as we dodged the exploding kunai but then Hanzō caught Tsunade off-guard .

" Kami Bakudan Kōhai :Ketsugō Kōro ( 紙爆弾後背:結合高炉術 Paper Bomb Style: Binding Blast Jutsu ) " Hanzō chanted as he gathered hundreds of paper bombs to try binding Tsunade down.

" Hari Jizō ( 針地蔵 Needle Jizō ) " i chanted as i used my hair to pull Tsunade away from the explosion and use my hair to shield both us from his attack.

" Senei Tajashu (潜影多蛇手 Multiple Striking Shadow Snakes) " Orochimaru chanted as he releases thousands of snakes from his hands to take on Hanzō.

" Not a bad attempt but not good enough Ibuse stop it " Hanzō commanded as he countered Orochimaru's snakes with a water blast from his salamanders mouth .

" Damn it ! " Orochimaru shouted as he was left off-guard.

" Now time to end this ! " Hanzō stated as she summoned several exploding kunai at Orochimaru.

" Earth Style: Terra Shield " Tsunade countered as she shielded Orochimaru from the exploding kunai . I then go to attack Ibuse from behind.

" I got you ! " i said to him only to be hit from behind by it's tail.

" Your team attacks are well-timed but you lack the skill or strength to beat someone like me " Hanzō taunted us in a stoic while we regrouped.

" What should we do Tsunade ? " i asked her.

" He's strong, we can't take him on with our own skills " Tsunade answered.

" That's pretty obvious , what to do ? " Orochimaru asked.

" We would have to use our strongest attacks against him. Let's stop holding back on him " Tsunade commanded.

" Very well then , let's do this " i replied as we all did handsigns.

" Summoning Jutsu " we chanted as we summoned our creatures. I summoned Gamabunta, Tsunade summoned Katsuyu and Orochimaru summoned Manda.

" Very impressive but let's see how you guys deal with my attack , Kami Bakudan Kōhai :Bakuhatsushiha (紙爆弾後背:爆発紙波 Paper Bomb Style: Exploding Paper Wave ) "Hanzō chanted as he summons millions of paper bombs and then uses Ibuse to shoot a massive wave of water mixed with Ibuse's special poison gas at us.

" It's now or never Katon: Gamayu Endan(火遁・蝦蟇油炎弾Fire Style: Toad Flame Bomb ) " both me and Gamabunta chanted as they both spew a massive blast of fire. Gamabunta shoots a jet of oil from his mouth while i breathed on the oil jet creating a massive comet like fireball .

" Suiryoku Ryūsan (水力硫酸Hydroelectric Sulfuric Acid) " Tsunade and Katsuyu chanted as they shoot a massive wave of electrified acid.

" Dadokukaze ( 蛇毒風Snake Venom Wind ) " Orochimaru and Manda chanted as they shoots an highly pressurized purple poison wind vortex.

Our blast collide as we create a massive 2 mile radius explosion filling the entire area up with deadly poison gas . Tsunade gave us some antidotes to inject to resist the poison while we were out of energy. The blast however failed to damage Hanzō who protected himself with a barrier but he was slightly drained of his Chakra.

" I must admit,had not for this barrier, you guys would of defeated me however it's not enough " Hanzō said to us.

" That's impossible, our blasts did nothing to him " Orochimaru stated frightened.

" We're done for aren't we ? " i said to me friends.

" I'm out of ideas right now , it's best we haul ass " Tsunade said to us.

" You're not going anywhere, Kami Bakudan Kōhai :Shinoame (紙爆弾後背:爆発紙波 :死の雨 Paper Bomb Style: Rain of Death ) " Hanzō chanted as he rained down thousands of exploding kunai at us.

The explosions ended when it's revealed our summons took the hit for all of us.

" Gamabunta ! " i shouted.

" Katsuyu ! " Tsunade screamed trying comfort the slug.

" Manda ! " Orochimaru said to his snake.

" Looks like we're done for ! " Gamabunta stated as he dropped to the ground the teleported back to Mount Myōboku.

" Sorry Lady Tsunade ! " Katsuyu said to Tsunade as she retreated to safety splitting up into different clones.

" Orochimaru, you bastard ! " Manda snarled as it retreated back via reverse summoning.

" You guys have given me a good run for my money, i wasted too much chakra fighting you guys now time to end this " Hanzō stated as he send more exploding kunai at us again.

Me and Orochimaru dodged a volley of exploding blasts only to see hundreds more about to hit us at once.

" Tenkūno Hakushu(天空の拍手Clap of the Heavens ) " Tsunade countered as she creates a shockwave negating the blasts and deflecting the kunai from us. Hanzō was able to catch Tsunade again with his paper bombs.

" Kami Bakudan Kōhai :Ketsugō Kōro ( 紙爆弾後背:結合高炉術 Paper Bomb Style: Binding Blast Jutsu ) " Hanzō chanted as he gathered hundreds of paper bombs to try binding Tsunade down.

" Hari Jizō ( 針地蔵 Needle Jizō ) " i chanted as i used my hair to pull Tsunade away from the explosion and use my hair to shield both us from his attack. I was kneeling down low on Chakra with my legs slightly burned while Tsunade held me.

" What ? " Hanzō said shocked to see.

" Seneijashu(潜影蛇手Striking Shadow Snakes ) " Orochimaru chanted as he ejects 5 white snakes from his wrist binding down Hanzō.

" Nice one ! " i said to them.

" Jiraiya now ! " Orochimaru shouted at me.

" Hari Jigoku(針地獄Needle Hell ) " the Sannin countered as he extends his hair around his body and shoots multiple hardened needle-like hair towards Hanzō but Hanzō used Shunshin to escape .

" I'm sorry about getting your legs burned ! " Tsunade said to me.

" Don't worry , i won't brought down so easily by such small burns " i replied while unable to move my brunt right leg while Tsunade holds me up.

" Damn it ! Our Jutsu's aren't working against him. He knows how to counter our every move " Orochimaru stated.

" Is this it ? " i questioned myself as Chakra exhaustion set in and we were at our limits after using our Summoning Jutsu and collaboration attack.

" I must say, each of you are almost on the level of a Kage at such a young age. With fighters like you, this war might tip in the scales of Konoha. Since you guys gave me a good fight, i will allow you three to live " Hanzō said to us.

" We don't need your sympathy ! We can still fight ! " i replied .

" Shut up Jiraiya ! " Tsunade said to me.

" You three are powerful… You've even survived here on this battlefield . I, Hanzō, hereby dub you the Sannin of the Leaf. Refer to yourselves as such in return for having your lives spared " Hanzō said to us as he walked away from us and disappeared.

Later on, we were within a cave resting after Tsunade healed our wounds thinking about what just happened.

" What the hell just happened ? " i asked them.

" He spared us but the question is why would he do such a thing when he could of still beaten us ? " Tsunade answered with a question.

" It's unusual, most Shinobi would of taken the chance to kill us off . Why would someone like him spare us ? " Orochimaru questioned.

" Let's not overthink this and let's be grateful we're alive. What i understood from his body signs, he was also pretty low on chakra as well . He must of spared us because we came the closest to defeating him of anyone he has ever fought and he was well-known for being undefeated. Only the likes of Sarutobi Sensei could beat him " Tsunade explained to us.

" My question is will this war really end if Konoha is declared victorious ? " i asked them.

" What do you plan to do after this awful war ? Plan to go onto another journey " Tsunade asked.

" Travel some more, and maybe write a book " i answered Tsunade.

" Why won't you just settle down in the village ? " Tsunade questioned me.

" I felt i haven't met my prophecy yet.. " i answered.

" Still on that ? " Tsunade asked me.

" What do you plan to do after the war ? " i asked her.

" I plan to finally marry my lover Dan and raise some kids " she answered.

Suddenly we sensed three kids coming into the cave . Orochimaru drew out his kunai knife.

" Relax, they're just kids ! " i said to Orochimaru.

" Careful, these kids might be Amegakure ninjas using transformation Jutsu " Tsunade answered .

" Even small mice can come from Amegakure , don't drop your guard ! " Orochimaru replied.

" Stop hiding! Show yourselves ! " Tsunade shouted as i then see a young child with orange hair come out of the shadows wearing a biohazard suit .

" Who are you ? " i asked the little boy.

" I need something to eat ! " the boy answered looking as if he was malnourished.

" What happened to your parents ? " i asked the little boy .

" They were killed by Shinobi during this war " he answered with a sad look on her face.

" Here, have some crackers! " i said to the little boy as i gave him my remaining crackers .

" Nagato! Konan ! Come out ! They don't see like bad people!" the boy said as he brought out his friends who were hiding.

The girl in their group had blue hair and amber eyes while the other kid had chin-length red hair hanging off his face blocking the view of his eyes. The kids ate some crackers with us and then followed us as we walked to a town with the children following us.

" What is it ? We already gave you our food ! Why are you still following us ? ! " Tsunade yelled at them. Konan then walked up to her looked as if she was going to pull out a kunai, i managed to stop Tsunade from taking the poor girls head off as she revealed she a paper flower for her.

" Thank you . Here this is...!" Konan said to us .

" It's origami. It's folded from the bread paper " i explained to Tsunade.

" For us ? " Tsunade asked the girl.

" Can you please teach us Ninjutsu ? You guys are Konoha Shinobi, right ? " the orange haired boy asked us.

" Shall i kill these brats ? I've seen countless war orphans like these, it's inhumane to keep them alive like this in such a war-torn country. The best thing to do to them is to put them out of their misery " Orochimaru asked us.

" No way, i can never take the life of a child ! " Tsunade replied.

" Come on, you prefer they suffer without their parents wandering the wasteland struggling to survive or prevent them from suffering altogether " Orochimaru stated.

" That's enough Orochimaru. You go on ahead with Tsunade . I'll stay behind and look after them for awhile " i said to my teammates.

" But Jiraiya, we need you on the war front . This is no time to babysit kids ! " Tsunade said to me.

" She's right , if you try to tend to every child orphan in the world, you would end up losing your mind " Orochimaru cynically stated.

" All i'm doing is just watching over these kids until they're able to fend for themselves. It's the least i can do " i said to them.

" What to say to Hiruzen sensei ? " Tsunade asked me.

" Tell him that Jiraiya now overwatches Amegakure " i replied to them.

31 years ago

A year has passed since the defining battle of our lives and we became known as the Legendary Sannin. Hanzo after seeing how much power and potential we had made a deal with Hiruzen to work with Konoha to help defeat Iwagakure and Sunagakure and promises a less oppressive government in exchange however many believed Hanzo was only using Konoha 's alliance to drive off all other invaders in order to preserve it's own military power over the country .

Konoha was free to use the Land of Rain and Amegakure as a launchpad against Sunagakure and Iwagakure. The war still dragged due to the stubbornness of the Tsuchikage and Kazekage, the Mizukage and Raikage also refused to end the war .

A while has passed since i took the children under my wing.I acted as the overseer of Amegakure while Orochimaru occupied the Land of Grass and Tsunade occupied the Land of Rivers.

I lived in a humble hut with the three kinds which have became like my own children . I was 23 years old at the time and i couldn't believe i had children that felt like they were my own. I demonstrate my fire Jutsu to grill a large fish large enough to feed them fish.

" Fire Jutsu is great for cooking fish ! " i said to them while cutting up the fish.

" Sensei, i know how to fish now ! " Yahiko said to me as he grabbed a bite of the fish with his chopsticks.

I then saw Nagato wiping his face.

" Nagato..what's wrong ? " i asked him.

" I started to remember my family , and... " Nagato whimpered but was interrupted by Yahiko.

" Don't cry ! This is why people think that men from Amegakure are weak! " Yahiko said to Nagato.

" Things are pretty unstable between the Great Nations that surround Amegakure, but this war would probably end soon. By the time you guys grow up, there will be mutual understanding and peac.." i explained to the kids only to be cut off by Yahiko.

" That's not fair ! Our families were killed ! If there's going to be mutual understanding , it'll be after they're all experienced the same thing as us ! That's what it means to get even, right ? ! " Yahiko shouted in intense anger.

" Calm down Yahiko, we shouldn't try to get even. We should strive for peace ! " i stated.

" Still ... i know it's impossible. That's why wars will never end . I hate the rain . This country is always crying. It's weak . One of these days, i'm going to change this country...and protect everyone! Please Jiraiya sensei, please teach us Ninjutsu! " Yahiko said to me with such intense passion.

One day , i was thinking of ideas for my novel but i couldn't think of anything when Konan came to me rushing in distress.

" Jiraiya sensei, help! Yahiko and Nagato are.. ! " Konan said in a panicked tone.

" Lead the way, Konan ! " i said to her as i immediately rushed out to save Nagato and Yahiko.

When i arrived at the scene , i found a dead Shinobi next to Yahiko and Nagato.

" I brought sensei ! " Konan said to them.

" What happened ? " i asked them.

" This leftover Shinobi told us to give him all of our food and valuables then Nagato ... " Yahiko said to me when i then came to a grisly conclusion. These kids just killed a Chūnin from Iwagakure without any formal training . How in the hell did they kill a Chūnin but then i stared into the eyes of Nagato.

" Those eyes are ...! This kid..No way ! " i said to myself as i then stared into the eyes of the child. It was no doubt the legendary Rinnegan a ripple-like pattern over the eyeballs, with a light purple iris and sclera. It is said to be the most powerful of the Three Great Dōjutsu .

It was admired as being able to bring forth all ninjutsu. The holder of these eyes can completely master all five basic nature transformations that form the basis of ninjutsu. It was said that in times when the world is in disorder, a person is sent down from the heavens to become either a God of Creation who will calm the world, or a Destroyer who will reduce everything to nothingness. I never thought anyone could process such a legendary power.

At that moment, it came to me. This was the Child of Prophecy i was looking for.

" I've decided to teach you guys Ninjutsu " i said to them.

" Really ? " Yahiko enthusiastically asked.

" There's no saying when you'll be mortal danger like that again. This Ninjutsu is to defend yourselves with " i said to the kids.

" Alright ! Thank you for saving me earlier ,Nagato . I'm sorry i called you a weakling . If something happens next time, i'll be the one saving you " Yahiko replied.

" Thank you , Yahiko ! " Nagato shyly replied.

" Heh, but isn't Nagato stronger than you, Yahiko ? " Konan stated.

" From here on, i'll train and get stronger ! I'll make you eat those words , Konan " Yahiko replied.

" Alright let's begin . First, we're gonna learn how to mold Chakra " i replied.

" Yes sensei ! " they all responded.

Later on that night, Yahiko came to talk with me about what happened with him and that Chūnin.

" Is something wrong ? " i asked Nagato.

" Sensei !" Nagato answered.

" Is it about earlier ? " i asked.

" Back then, when Yahiko was injured, i got this intense feeling in my stomach toward the enemy. I either blacked out, or i lost my mind . When i woke up, i saw the enemy collapsed on the ground . After that, i felt so scared and hateful . I checked his pulse and he wasn't breathing, i must've lost it and killed him . I shouldn't have done it. There must've been a better way to... " Nagato explained to me while sobbing.

" Nagato . I don't know if you did the right thing or made an mistake,either . However, thanks to you, Yahiko didn't die . You protected your friend , that was the right thing to do . No one is going to blame you, getting injured will give birth to hatred , and injured someone else will only cause them to detest you .However, knowing the feeling of pain is what allows is to be kind to each other . That's what makes us human " i explained to him.

" How..can i do that ? " he asked.

" You have to grow up ! " i said to him.

" How do i grow up ? " Nagato asked me.

" That's something you'll have to figure out on your own ! " i answered.

" Yahiko came and saved us when Konan and i were crying out of hunger. Yahiko stole food from other people to make sure we survived . I just want to protect those two , no matter how much pain i need to go through " Nagato explained to me.

" Is that right ? " i asked him.

During the time i spent with them, i grew close to the three children, and even wrote a book that was inspired by one of them, Nagato.

I stood within Amegakure for 3 years occupying the warzone. Tsunade occupied the Land of Rivers and fought directly against Sunagakure forces while Orochimaru occupied Kusagakure and launched attacks against the Land of Earth. I was bonding with them and teaching the Ame Orphans Ninjutsu to defend themselves.

One day i decided to put there Ninjutsu to the test with them testing their abilities on me.

" Water Release: Wild Water Wave " Yahiko chanted as he shot a stream of water at me.

" Paper Shuriken " Konan chanted as she threw paper shuriken at my clone.

" Wind Style: Gale Palm " Nagato chanted as he used the wind the propel the water and shuriken at my clone.

" We did it ! How's that sensei ? Yahiko cheerfully stated.

" To think you can actually take out one of my Shadow clones...Now i can return to the village without any worries in my life . From here on out, you guys are going to live on your own. You're done really well these past three years " i said to them while trying to avoid crying.

" We're going to miss you ! " Yahiko said to me while having tears in his eyes.

" Don't cry, Yahiko. Real men don't cry , it makes them weak " i said to Yahiko.

" What are we going to do without you ? " Konan asked me.

" Don't worry Konan, you'll blossom into a vision of beauty and a strong woman . Let's meet again when you're a bit older. This is a poor country, i'm sure more sad times still lie ahead of it however you three can change this country with your power . Nagato, you guys have all grown up isn't that right ? " i said to them.

" Were going to miss you ! " Nagato replied as i left them so they can change this countries ways.

A while after i left Amegakure i was in battle again within the rest of the Sannin fighting off an invasion attempt from Iwagakure at Kusakagure when i met Orochimaru and Tsunade.

" Welcome back Jiraiya ! " Orochimaru said to me.

" Glad to see you again ! " Tsunade stated.

" Looks like you have quite an invasion force here " i said to them.

" We got at least 5,000 troops attacking " Tsunade said to me.

" Then let's fight together as a unit , got it Tsunade, Orochimaru ? " i said to them .

" Right ! " Tsunade answered as she killed two people with kunais in her hands.

" Fine ! " Orochimaru replied as he tossed a man aside with his snake tendril.

" Summoning Jutsu " we chanted as we summoned our creatures. I summoned Gamabunta, Tsunade summoned Katsuyu and Orochimaru summoned Manda.

We then managed to wipe out the entire battalion of troops almost single handily .

" This war.. how long is it going to last ? " i asked Tsunade.

" Is there a way to end this pointless war ? " Tsunade asked me back.

" There's no way to do that . Hatred just gives birth to more hatred " Orochimaru answered cynically.

" Don't say things like that ! " Tsunade scolded.

" I don't know how, but i will definitely find peace . As long as people keep believing that there's hope " i said to them.

I then got a letter from my messenger frog about the death of the kids, i was shocked and distressed about their deaths.

" What happened ? " Tsunade asked me.

" Those kids, the ones i spent 3 years with died within just 3 days of my departure " i answered as tears formed in my eyes.

" Jiraiya , you really seem to care for those kids " she said to me.

" I always done my best to make the right choices . That's what i believed my destiny was " i explained to her.

" Jiraiya... ! " Tsunade said to me concerned of my welfare.

" And just when i thought i finally made the right choice..It turns it i was wrong again " i shouted as i clenched my ninja scroll when Tsunade held on to me.

" Don't worry Jiraiya, you will find it one day . Believe in yourself " Tsunade said to me holding on to my shoulder.

" You're right... i'm still only halfway down my path " i replied.

All the sudden i saw a young kid with bright blue-eyes and spiky blond hair coming to me having not a single starch on him despite appearing to only being a Genin.

" You guys are so awesome ! " the kid said to me.

" Just who are you ? " Orochimaru asked the kid drawing out a kunai.

" Relax, he's one of us ! " Tsunade answered grabbing Orochimaru's hand.

" My name is Minato Namikaze , i'm a Genin from Konoha " the kid answered.

" How is it you don't have a single starch on you ? You're just a Genin " Tsunade asked him.

" I barely survived the ambush that killed my sensei, i was able to survive fighting off anyone who came in my way and i was about to die until you guys came and blasted them with your summoning Jutsus " the kid explained to me.

" I must said, you're tough if you can go through a battlefield of thousands of Shinobi , how about i become your new sensei ? " i asked him.

" Sure, i would love to be trained by the legendary Sannin " Minato replied.

While i mourn the tragic deaths of Konan, Nagato and Yahiko, i found another child who had Chūnin level power at just the age of 12 and made him my student and wondered if he was the true Child of Prophecy.

26 years ago

The final battle of the war was the battle within Amegakure again. Fights broke out everywhere within the heavily worn torn country. Hanzō struggles to maintain his country and was fighting up against the Third Raikage trying to take over the country shortly after they try to kidnap the grandniece of the first Hokage's wife for ransom money 2 years ago .

The Third Mizukage fought against the Third Kazekage in an epic battle which result in the death of the Third Mizukage and defeat of Kirigakure. Sunagakure lost the Second Kazekage 4 years ago thanks to the white fangs power and while Sunagakure won the battle against Kirigakure, they were weakened from the battle and retreated back to Sunagakure.

The Sannin have each split up to fight their own battles protecting valuable bases within the borders of the Land of Fire . Tsunade fought against and killed a powerful Kumogakure ninja said to be the student of the Third Raikage who launched an attack on Konoha from the Land of Rice Paddies, Orochimaru fought against a powerful ninja from Land of Water trying to invade Konoha through the Land of Grass and i was fighting side by side with the Third Hokage with my student Minato in Amegakure itself against the Third Tsuchikage.

My Sensei stood within the outskirts of Amegakure now wearing instead of his traditional Kage robe was dressed in his battle garments when we encountered the Third Tsuchikage who was a short man with blonde mullet hair and he was with his own student.

" So it seems you wish to take this country over now ? " Hiruzen said to the Kage.

" Looks like you brought one of your students along, 1/3 of the legendary Sannin ? " he said to Hiruzen.

" It looks like you know it , Jiraiya here would one day be the successor to the title Hokage " Hiruzen stated.

" I too trained a student would take my place once i become too old to be a Kage , meet my finest student " Ōnoki said to us as he introduced him.

The man was a very tall and brawny Shinobi . He had dark brown long waist length hair with a bulbous nose and a thick mustache and beard who was around my age , he was a Jōunin like myself but his chakra was almost comparable to a Kage like me. He was with a younger boy who was a Chūnin around Minato's age with dark hair that ends in a ponytail of sorts and a bulbous nose.

" Who are these two ? " Hiruzen asked.

" These are my sons . My oldest here is Arata and the youngest is Kitsuchi " Ōnoki said to us.

" Jiraiya, take care of Arata, Minato fight Kitsuchi, i'll handle the Tsuchikage myself " Hiruzen sensei said to me.

" Very well then ! " i replied as i faced off with Arata. He was your typical silent type Shinobi only talked when needed to.

" Looks like you wish to get in the way of Iwagakure victory ! " Arata said to me.

" Sorry buddy, but Konoha has this war won ! " i replied as we clashed attacks with each other.

We clashed attacks for hours however i couldn't manage to overpower Arata's mighty strength and i was eventually overpowered by his attacks. I was pretty badly injured but far from near death and that was when i decided to use the secret new form that the Toad Sages taught me.

" Any last words before you die ? " Arata asked me.

" Here's a few words , Sage Mode " i replied as i used my Sage power for the first time of my life as i gathered up enough energy to summon Shima and Fukasaku which transformed me into my Sage Mode.

" Looks like you finally need to use this form ! " Shima said to me.

" I had no choice, i haven't fought a foe this tough since Hanzō " i stated.

" Jiraiya, we need to take him down with this Jutsu " Fukasaku said to me.

" You think you're so tough huh, it's time i finish you off " Arata said to me as he does handsigns.

" He's going for the finishing blow, it's time i end this fast " i said to the toads as i charge up Chakra.

" Doton: Sando (土遁・山土の術 Earth Style: Mountainous Earth Jutsu ) " Arata chanted as he creates two enormous rock formations that close in on me from two opposing sides with tremendous force, smashing everything caught in between and forming a massive 2,500 foot high mountain.

" Hari Jizō ( 針地蔵 Needle Jizō ) " i chanted as i used my hair to shield and destroy the mountain i was nearly crushed under by the Kage level Shinobi.

" Not bad however try stopping this ! " Arata stated as he charged up chakra between his hands forming a cone like attack.

" What is that ? " i asked him.

" This is my ultimate attack ,Jinton: Genkai Hakuri ( 塵遁・原界剥離の術 Particle Style: Atomic Dismantling Jutsu), this is a Kekkei Genkai passed down by my father . This could destroy an entire village, you stand no chance ! " Arata stated as he fires the cone-shaped blast at me.

" It's now or never, Senpō: Goemon (仙法・五右衛門Sage Art: Bath of Boiling Oil ) " me and the toads chanted as Fukasaku performed a large Wind Release technique and Shima performed a large Fire Release technique while i shot a massive jet of oil . Within an instant, that area was filled with oil burning at temperatures of thousands of degrees colliding with the blast however i was able to overpower it and then killed Arata from the explosion.

Meanwhile the Thirds stopped fighting after Ōnoki found out about the death of his son Ōnoki and Hiruzen had destroyed a great chunk of the battlefield fighting together and were worn out. Meanwhile my student Minato was close to beating Kitsuchi when Ōnoki pulled out and retreated.

" You haven't seen the last of Iwagakure ! " Ōnoki said to us as he picks up his surviving younger son and used his ability to fly to flee the battlefield also carrying the badly burned corpse of his older son.

I rushed to Hiruzen worn out from the battle i had to ask him what happened .

" It looks like Konoha has won the war , you finally help put an end to this madness ! " Hiruzen said to me.

" At a devastating cost, i wish i learned this power years ago ! " i said to my teacher as i reverted back to normal .

Minato came back to me with some injuries but he was okay from the attack.

" So it seems like this war is finally over ! " Minato happily said to me.

" It is, you helped out greatly today Minato ! " i said to him.

The war finally ended with Hiruzen defending it's once rival power Amegakure from Iwagakure while Hanzō defeated the Third Raikage with his poisons while nearly dying in the process. Orochimaru killed a Kirigakure ninja who was said to wield 7 magical swords and was related to the Second Mizukage .

However the war had it's cost, one of them being Tsunade's psyche. A day after her victorious triumphant victory over the Third Raikage's strongest student, her lover Dan was killed in an ambush raid from Kumogakure in retaliation to the death of their student.

I rushed to her the next day to see what happened . She was dressed in a black kimono.

" What happened Tsunade ? " i asked her.

" He's dead, Dan is dead ! " she answered.

" Tsunade .. .! " i said trying to comfort her but she pushed me aside.

" I couldn't save him... There was so much blood . I can never be a Ninja again " Tsunade said to me.

" Don't give up on being a Ninja Tsunade, you're one of the reasons why we won the war. You're a strong and powerful woman and my best friend " i said to her.

" Listen Jiraiya, i appreciate your concern but i need a while to be on my own. I have far too much baggage on me " Tsunade stated as she threw her headband on the ground .

" What is that on your forehead ? " i asked her.

" It's the Yin Seal: Release passed down by my grandmother Mito,she trained and taught me everything i need to know about my powers. I promised my dying grandmother 3 years ago that i would never let anyone die as long as i process this power she gave me, i failed to protect the person that i dated for 6 years and the man i planed to marry after this war just like i failed to protect my younger brother Nawkai " Tsunade explained to me as she broke down crying.

" Don't worry, things will be fine ! " i replied hugging her.

" Now you understand why i can't be a ninja at the moment. Ninjas aren't suppose to show emotion , i need to quit for a while until i get my life together . Please, let me recover on my own " she said to me.

" Okay Tsunade, promise that you won't do something stupid " i questioned her.

" I won't Jiraiya ! " she replied as she left to be on her own to recover the lost of her powers.

Tsunade wasn't the only one affected by the war. My friend and Rival Orochimaru was also hit hard by the war. After nearly dying in his battle with a powerful Kirigakure ninja, he decided to research the secrets of immortality

" So Orochimaru, you heard what happened with Tsunade's lover ? " i asked him.

" Yeah i did, poor thing has really been hard. She's just not the same anymore " i answered.

" I heard you were saved by Tsunade " i asked him.

" I kinda blame myself for being so badly injured. Had she not been healing me, she could've saved her lover Dan " Orochimaru explained to me.

" Don't blame yourself Orochimaru, you could of done nothing to control fate. Had she not came to your aid, you would've died and i would've lost a best friend. I am pretty sad that Tsunade lost her lover " i said to my best friend.

" It's the typical that people die , it's an unavoidable fate . One day, i plan to transcend all of that as the Hokage of this village one day " Orochimaru said to me as he walks away from me.

" And how do you plan to accomplish this ? " i asked him.

" By becoming the first immortal in human history and i would do whatever it takes to do so . Dan and Nawkai are fine examples of the fragility of human life and how it affected those still living . I wish one day to be the one to bring an era where humans can live without the fear of inevitable death " Orochimaru explained to me.

" It's a great goal but that just seems impossible " i stated.

" Well so does your Child of Prophecy dream but you proved that it can be obtainable, i would make sure my goals are accomplished one way or another. Jiraiya, you have went through your own journey . Allow me to go on my journey " he said to me.

" Fine then, i wish you the best of luck Orochimaru " i replied as we shook hands with each other.

One year after the war, the 5 Kages signed a peace treaty that ended the brutal war. Minor countries like Amegakure were devastated and were given relief funds to repair from the damage that happened within those war torn countries. My protegé Minato Namikaze was promoted to special Jōunin as a 16-year-old man while his best friend Kushina Uzumaki , Tsunade's distant cousin from the destroyed Uzushiogakure who came here 6 years after the destruction of the Land of Whirlpools.

20 years ago

6 years have passed since the end of the Second Shinobi World War . The Village was enjoying an era of peace when Sunagakure attacked the Land of Fire and declared war on Konoha causing us of the death of the Third Kazekage.

Sunagakure started the war by attacking Hiruzen's son Asuma Sarutobi and killing the son's sensei and almost killed Asuma. Had not for my student Minato, they would have died .

I was assembled with Hiruzen to talk about the war.

" Sunagakure have went too far this time around, they almost killed my son while he was on a C-rank mission " Hiruzen stated with intense anger. Age was starting to affect him as he was starting to age more and had grayish hair.

" It seems we have another war in our hands ! " i said to Hiruzen not very happy about fighting another war.

" It seems Sunagakure wasn't happy about losing the last war so they decided to attack us out of revenge " Orochimaru stated.

" Whatever is the case, we must end this war before it really begins " Hiruzen said to us.

" Right ! " i replied.

Later on that day, i went to find Tsunade who was walking out her apartment with a young girl with her.

" Where are you going Tsunade ? " i asked her.

" Out of this village, i have no interest in this village " she answered.

" You can't leave, we need you in this war. You are one of the reasons we won the first time around " i begged her.

" I can no longer fight Jiraiya, i'm too terrified to fight wars anymore " Tsunade explained to me.

" Why ? What are you terrified of ? " i asked her.

" Blood, i fear the blood of the fallen. After witnessing Dan's death, i can't bear to see blood anymore. I get terrified of even a small cut of blood, i'm no longer fit for war and having me around would only hurt the war effort " Tsunade explained.

" You don't have to leave this village ! " i begged her.

" Sorry Jiraiya but i must go, this village brings back too many bad memories " Tsunade replied as she leaves to the gate with the little girl.

" Tsunade wait i lov... " i said to her about to confess my love to her however i was hit by a stun needle as i fell asleep while Tsunade left.

I was woken up by Hiruzen sensei who was standing there with a bleak look on his face.

" Looks like you're the only one of the Sannin who is in this war " Hiruzen said to me.

" What do you mean ? " i asked him.

" Orochimaru is busy trying to research immortality and trying to help Konoha win the war behind the scenes and Tsunade has left us for good with Dan's niece . You're the only one who remains " he said to me

" I guess so , i really don't wish to fight this war though " i said to him.

" Neither do i but we have no choice ! " Hiruzen replied.

" It seems i failed again, the cycle of hatred that binds this world is still around and is growing stronger " i grimly stated.

19 years ago

The self-imposed exile of Tsunade and Orochimaru being obsessed and focus on immortality had left me alone in this war . I felt alone in this cold Shinobi war and was feeling depressed from not having Tsunade on my side. I really did care for and wished that i could of been with her however i couldn't find her nor had the time to find her.

I was then given a message that 10,000 troops were being taken down by one guy .

" What's going on ? " i asked the guy

" We need your power in battle , the Third Raikage has wiped out half the invasion force within just 2 days of fighting. We need your skills to win this battle " the ninja answered.

" Very well then ! " i replied as i head out to the battlefield.

When i arrived, i saw thousands of dead bodies scattered across the barren wasteland of the Land of Lightning when i encountered a tall, dark-skinned man with a muscular, body builder-like stature. He had long blond hair and unusual eyes which had green-coloured irides, a dark sclerae and no pupils. His top lip also had a darker pigmentation than the bottom one and he had a mole above his right eyebrow. He has the kanji for "lightning" (雷, kaminari) tattooed on his right shoulder and a lightning bolt-shaped scar that runs from his neck all the way across the right side of his chest. His canine teeth were also slightly elongated.

The Third Raikage was low on Chakra fighting a battle with the recently established Fourth Kazekage 3 days ago and after fighting to a stand still. The Fourth Kazekage and Raikage wore each out and then Konoha came with 10,000 Shinobi to attack and take over the country lead by several dozen Jōunin Commanders. The Fourth Kazekage retreated with his surviving forces while the Third Raikage has his heavily wounded troops retreat while he fought an entire battalion with nothing but Taijutsu for 3 days and limited Chakra. After wiping out the remaining 10,000 troops who only survived this long given their tactics and jutsu, Third Raikage was able to recover nearly all his power feeding on Rations and was now able to take me on.

" So Konoha's Legendary Sannin finally showed up ? It was getting quite boring here, now with my Chakra fully restored, i can take the likes of you on " the Raikage said to me.

" I heard about your strength but let's see if you can handle this ! " i replied as i immediately turned into my Sage Mode not taking chances against him.

I threw everything i got against him however nothing i did damaged the brute. Even my Senpō: Goemon (仙法・五右衛門Sage Art: Bath of Boiling Oil ) did no real damage to him . The Raikage was also so fast that not even my Sage mode could handle his speed . I thought i was about to die this time when even my Sage Mode failed. All i managed to do to him was give him first degree burns a few small cuts.

" Looks like you fought well however it seems even your mighty strength can't beat me " the Third Raikage said to me.

" I guess this is it for me ! " i said to myself as the Third charged at me but then Minato appeared at the battlefield to save me moving so fast that it was a blur to me.

" Are you alright sensei ? " Minato asked me.

" Yeah, just a few broken bones but i'm fine " i answered.

" Don't worry master, i would make sure that you're avenged " he replied as he goes to challenge the Third Raikage.

" No , don't do it, he's too strong ! " i shouted but he went to fight him face to face.

What i saw next was a battle that was beyond even my comprehension. The Raikage and Minato clashed attacks with each other moving at such high speeds that even my eyes couldn't follow them. Minato was now the fastest person in existence however the Third Raikage still was stronger and despite landing many hits on him, the Thrid Raikage wasn't seriously wounded.

Eventually it came down to Minato exhausted of his Chakra and badly injured while the Third Raikage only had small cuts , bruises and the burns i gave him earlier. He held his right hand with two fingers pointing at Minato.

" Give up . You know you can't beat me, i'm the strongest Kage in existence " the Third arrogantly taunted.

" Allow me to say something " Minato said to him but he was impaled by the two fingers surging with black lightning.

" I'm through with words ! " the Third replied.

" Minato ! " i shouted only to see Minato behind him with a Rasengan.

" You should give up on making me give up " Minato replied as he comes at him but the Third dodges and then gets serious.

" You think you're funny, time to stop playing around " he replied as he uses one finger covered with black lightning " Kuroi Kaminari: Ippon Nukite (地獄突きOne-Finger Hell Stab )" he chanted as he charged at Minato.

" Rasengan " Minato chanted as he comes at him with energy condensed in his right hand with a special kunai in his left hand .

The clash released tons of energy as a blinding explosion . The smoke clears up to reveal Minato managed to use his powerful jutsu to smash the Third's hand through his scar which caused the Third to take damage from his own attack while Minato stood unharmed any further but out of energy. The Third then fell and died.

" It looks like you now hold the title strongest Kage " the Third said to him as he uttered his last words before he died.

The next day, both me and Minato recovered our wounds and were talking with each other about his feat of power. Minato had became the most famous Shinobi in the world for defeating the Third Raikage in battle and killing him in a battle of raw power and speed.

" Minato, you're the only student i had who surpassed me " i said to him.

" Thanks Jiraiya sensei ! " he replied.

" You are indeed the Child of Prophecy that would bring great change to this world " i said to him.

" What is this Child of Prophecy you speak of ? " he asked me.

" You have a power that i haven't ever seen before, you are the one who can help us change the world and bring peace to us all " i explained to him.

" I see, if that's the case, i won't let you down . I now understood why i wanted to be Hokage, now i would one day become Hokage after i put an end to this war " he replied.

16 years ago

3 years have passed since Minato saved my life. It was incredible how fast Minato rose to power and fame. It was because of him, we won the Third Shinobi world war and shortly after that, he became the Fourth Hokage with Hiruzen stepping down the throne realizing how old he has become . I once sought the title Hokage but i realized that Minato has surpassed even the Sannin and was one of the most powerful men in existence .

I decided to retire being a ninja thinking there wasn't much left in my life feeling like much of my life goals were fulfilled . I wrote my first book, The Tale of the Utterly Gutsy Shinobi, however it failed to be a best-seller.

" Hey, it' seems like you're reading The Tale of the Utterly Gutsy Shinobi ? " i said to Minato .

" Yeah i am ! " he answered.

" But it's still unfinished. The sentences are still childish and the quality of the rest is pretty bad " i modestly stated.

" No, that's not true . The main character is amazing ! Every episode feels like it's a part of your own life , sensei . It's almost like an autobiography " Minato stated.

" Maybe so, but it didn't sell at all...Maybe next time i should use my strong point, and add in more erotic material " i said to him.

" The way the main character never gave up, not even at the end , was really cool. The main character is alot like you sensei. When our baby is born, we want to raise it to be like the main character " Minato said to me.

" H-hey! Are you sure you guys want that ? It's a name i came up with while eating ramen " i asked him.

" It's a beautiful name ! " Kushina replied walking in pregnant to the point of giving birth any day now.

" If i name him, that makes me his Godfather , huh ? " i asked them.

" You're my sensei after all. You're a man with true skill . I can't think of a finer Shinobi than you " Minato said to me.

" So when is that baby due ? " i asked them.

" 3 days from now ! " he answered.

" Very well then, i'll be there too with my own future wife as well " i replied as i walked away to find Tsunade.

I searched all over the Land of Fire for her when i eventually found her within Tanzaku town where she was with Shizune.

" Jiraiya, what are you doing here ? " Tsunade asked me.

" Long time no see Tsunade " i said to her .

" Why did you follow me ? " she yelled at me.

" I came here to check how are you doing " i answered.

" I don't wish to be in Konoha anymore, i can never go back there " she said to me.

" But Tsunade... i love you ! " i said to her as i hugged her as was going to kiss her but she pushed me off.

" Even if you met that, there is no such thing in this cruel world . As long as we live in this cursed world, there is only hate and despair, love has no meaning in this dark cruel world " Tsunade explained to me in a dark somber tone.

" What has happened to you ? You use to be a happy girl who wished to be the Hokage now you become a dark, cynical woman " i stated.

" Wake up Jiraiya, stop living in your fantasy world for once. The title Kage is a fools game, you don't change a damn thing as Hokage and eventually die from war or from old age. As for your Child of Prophecy, your bullshit prophecy hasn't changed shit, this world is still dark and filled with hate. Just because nations aren't at war anymore doesn't mean peace has been achieved, all you did was delay another war " Tsunade harshly explained to me as she left with Shizune.

" Tsunade wait come back ! " i shouted as i go to hug her but she then hit me in the back of the head to knock me out again long enough to leave the town and avoid me for the rest of her days.

When i woke up the next day, i got a double dose of bad news . The first was the letter that was attached to my shirt from Tsunade herself.

" Dear Jiraiya, you need to abandon your stupid dreams . Love is merely just a naïve concept that you bring to the table because you don't know that in a world filled with hate could never work and ends up hurting the two in love . Don't bother looking for me for you would never find me again " Tsunade wrote to me .

I then got a message from the messenger frog about what happened to Minato. I rushed to Konoha to find it damaged from the Nine Tails attack . I then searched for Minato when i found Hiruzen.

" Where's Minato ? " i asked him.

" He's dead ! " Hiruzen answered bowing his head down in shame.

" What ? No it can't be ! Where's Kushina ? " i asked him.

" She died as well , the Nine Tailed Fox attacked this village and she was the first to die in the attack " Hiruzen explained to me.

" How did Minato die ? Minato is the strongest Shinobi alive " i questioned my sensei.

" The Nine Tails was the strongest Tailed Beast alive, not even Minato could beat him in a psychical fight so he used the Dead Demon Consuming Seal to seal the Nine Tails into his newborn child in hopes his son would one day control it " Hiruzen explained to him.

" Damn it , i should of been there. I should of been there instead of searching for Tsunade " i said to my master as i began to cry .

" Don't cry Jiraiya, it's not your fault that the Nine Tails attacked this village. No one would've foresaw this event ,even i couldn't predict this but it seems the Fourth gave his life for all of us and died a heroic death " Hiruzen said to me as he held the Hokage uniform for me.

" No thanks, i'm not worth the title Hokage. I couldn't save my own student once again, first Nagato ,Yahiko and Konan and now Minato. I need some time alone " i replied as i walked away into my own exile in shame that i couldn't save Minato.

12 years ago

As if my life couldn't suck more , 4 years after the death of my student Minato ,Orochimaru betrayed Konoha and left the village. I then learned about Orochimaru's true motives, he had been secretly kidnapping his fellow Konoha Shinobi and used them as human guinea pigs. He experimented on them to develop techniques that would grant him immortality, as he had already decided that he would settle for no less than to learn all of the techniques in the world . The beans were spilled by one of the survivors of his experiments Yamato, who was one of the sixty children injected with the First Hokage's DNA, hoping to recreate the First's Wood Release techniques.

" You can't be serious ! " i asked him.

" I'm afraid it's true , Orochimaru has been experimenting with his fellow Shinobi trying to use forbidden Jutsu and all this time was trying to gain power to rule the five Great Nations " Hiruzen explained to me.

" Orochimaru was always a bit twisted but i never thought he would go as far as experiment on human beings much less his own fellow Shinobi " i stated shocked and horrified at what i heard.

" Jiraiya, you need to bring him to justice. You're the only one who can do it " Hiruzen stated.

" Don't worry Sarutobi sensei, i will bring Orochimaru back to Konoha " i replied as i went to search for him.

I searched for him looking for Orochimaru for a long while until i found him within the middle of the forest. I then encountered him in the middle of the forest.

" Looks like you finally shown up Jiraiya " Orochimaru said to me.

" Why, why are you doing this ? You and i have been comrades since our childhood , you and i are part of the legendary Sannin " i said to him filled with sadness having to fight my own best friend.

" What sentimental bullshit Jiraiya ! You were always blind, always had your head in the clouds unaware of my true nature or my true intentions " Orochimaru stated.

" It's not too late, you can still turn around and come back to the village " i said to him.

" HAHAHHAHAH! how did you become such a fool ? It's time we end this once and for all " Orochimaru replied as he came right me to attack with a sword in his right hand but i blocked his attack.

" Hari Jizō ( 針地蔵 Needle Jizō ) " i chanted as i used my hair to shield myself from the blade but the blade still pierces through my steel thick hair.

" Not a bad try but my Sword of Kusanagi can cut through almost anything " Orochimaru explained to me as the blade narrowly missed my neck.

" I see, then i would need to get serious Hari Jigoku(針地獄Needle Hell ) " i countered as i extend my hair around my body and shoots multiple hardened needle-like hair towards Orochimaru but Orochimaru used Shunshin to escape my attack and goes to attack me .

" Seneijashu(潜影蛇手Striking Shadow Snakes )" Orochimaru chanted as he ejects 5 snakes from his wrist binding me down.

" Fire Style: Dragon Flame Jutsu " i replied as i breath flames through the snake but Orochimaru dodges the attack detaching the snakes from his body and the uses his left hand to attack me.

" Senei Tajashu (潜影多蛇手 Multiple Striking Shadow Snakes) " Orochimaru chanted as he releases thousands of snakes from his hands towards me.

" Earth Style: Great Mud River (土遁・土流大河Earth Style: Great Mud River )" i countered as i spat a large wave of mud from my mouth and creates a massive wave of destruction that destroys everything within it's path canceling out the thousands of snakes with mud.

" Wind Style: Divine Down Current (風遁・神颪Fūton: Kami Oroshi )" Orochimaru chants as he creates a vortex of wind to blast at me from his left hand.

" Katon: Hiendan (火遁・飛炎弾Fire Style: Soaring Fire Bullet) " i countered as he exhales a stronger yet shorter version of the Fire Release to negate Orochimaru's wind blast.

Orochimaru and i clashed attacks with each for several minutes destroying trees within my path when Orochimaru then goes to attack me again.

" Kakuchō Kusanagi ( 拡張草薙Extend Snake Sword ) " Orochimaru chanted as he extends his blade by cutting a set of trees and rocks within a 8 mile radius within 0.8 seconds . I barely dodged the attack which grazed my shoulder.

" Not bad but i got you this time , Ranjishigami (i乱獅子髪の術] Wild Lion's Mane Technique) " i chanted i used my hair to extend 5.7 miles long forming the shape of a lion coming at Orochimaru but Orochimaru used his sword to cut the lion in half.

" Mandara no Jin (万蛇羅ノ陣Ten Thousand Snakes Wave ) " Orochimaru chanted as he lays down on the ground and release a torrent of countless snakes from his mouth, forming a wall of snakes that extend over 100 feet high and came at me.

" Fire Style: Dragon Flame Bomb " i countered as i shot a powerful wave of fire manipulated into a genuine-looking dragon. The spat out flames divided to launch a left side, right side, and frontal assault in all three directions at once burning all the snakes. I then jumped up and came at Orochimaru with a Rasengan.

" What ? " Orochimaru shouted shocked to see me using the Rasengan .

" Rasengan " i shouted as i hit down Orochimaru causing a large explosion. Orochimaru revealed he escaped using substitution Jutsu.

" Using the fourth Hokage's Jutsu huh ? I must say i wasn't expecting that from you " Orochimaru said to me.

" It's of homage to my student, compared to his Rasengan , mine's a pale imitation but it would be more than enough to bring you back to the village " i said to him .

" Is that so ? That's rather arrogant of you , you were always my inferior Jiraiya. You could never compare to my level of skills , you were always the weakest of the Sannin and the least skilled of us. You can never compare to my Ninjutsu skills " Orochimaru explained to me.

" You're wrong, that's not what makes a Shinobi. You never did get it, a real ninja is one who endures no matter what gets thrown at him… Let me explain something to you, there is only one thing that matters if you are a Shinobi, and it isn't the number of techniques you possess. All you do need, is the guts to never give up " i replied as i go to summon Gamabunta.

" I see, what a foolish idea to challenge me, it would be your last idea " Orochimaru responded as he summoned Manda.

Gamabunta and Manda lunged at each other with Manda attacking with his fangs while Gamabunta used his giant sword to attack each other. After a long battle, it was an stalemate and both our summoning where wounded from fighting each other.

" Time to get serious ! " Orochimaru said to Manda.

" Right ! " Manda replied as he inhales air with Orochimaru.

" It's now or never Gamabunta ! " i said to Gamabunta as i inhaled fire .

" Right ! " Gamabunta replied as he gathers oil .

" Dadokukaze ( 蛇毒風Snake Venom Wind ) " Orochimaru and Manda chanted as they shoots an highly pressurized purple poison wind vortex.

" Katon: Gamayu Endan(火遁・蝦蟇油炎弾Fire Style: Toad Flame Bomb ) " both me and Gamabunta chanted as we both spew a massive blast of fire. Gamabunta shot a jet of oil from his mouth while i breathed on the oil jet creating a massive comet like fireball .

Our blast collided destroying what was left of the forest we have been fighting in and leaving a barren wasteland in it's wake . I stood next to Orochimaru when i was weakened from the attack as well as Orochimaru.

" It's time we get serious ! " Orochimaru said to me.

" Very well then , Kōei Sējimōdo( 光栄セージモード Honored Sage Mode )" i chanted as i transformed into my Sage mode.

" I see, you learned some new Jutsu here !" Orochimaru said to me.

" This is Kōei Sējimōdo( 光栄セージモード Honored Sage Mode ). This form drastically increase the strength of all Ninjutsu, Genjutsu, and Taijutsu. A person who is able to use Senjutsu is called a Sennin (仙人, Sage ). This is my true power " i answered explaining his power.

" I must, you cease to amaze me but you're not the only one with a new power Yamata(八岐 Eight Headed Serpent ) " i chanted as i transformed myself into a giant white serpent with eight heads and eight tails. The serpent boasted a giant body which was 200 meters high. Orochimaru emerged out of the main snake with the Kusanagi Sword to attack.

" What is this form ? It's Chakra is on the level of Bijuu " i asked him.

" AHHAHAHAHAH ! This is my full power Yamata(八岐 Eight Headed Serpent ) . This is my greatest and strongest technique. Using the power of reincarnation, i transcend from a human and become a Bijuu myself " Orochimaru said to me.

" Jiraiya boy what's going on ? " Fukasaku asked.

" Orochimaru has defected from the village, i need your power again " i said to the Elder Toads.

" Very well then ! " Shima replied as they helped me fighting against Orochimaru in his Yamata form.

" Yorozu Hebienchōken (萬蛇を延長剣 Extend Ten Thousand Snake Swords) " Orochimaru chanted as he creates a wave of thousands of smaller snakes around him which each extend massive blades coming at me but i managed to dodge all of the attacks.

" Earth Style: Mud Wall " i countered as i used a massive 3,000 foot wall of earth to protect me from the attacks.

" Not bad Jiraiya however let's see you deal with this attack Hyakuman Hebinami (百万ヘビ波 Million Snakes Wave) " Orochimaru said to me as he came at me with millions of white snakes spreading 1 mile wide and 200 feet high right at me.

" Senpō: Goemon (仙法・五右衛門Sage Art: Bath of Boiling Oil ) " me and the toads chanted as Fukasaku performed a large Wind Release technique and Shima performed a large Fire Release technique while i shot a massive jet of oil . Within an instant, that area was filled with oil burning at temperatures of thousands of degrees colliding with the snakes but the snakes regenerated and came at me again " What ? " i shouted shocked to see the snakes.

" Hyakuman Hebinami (百万ヘビ波 Million Snakes Wave) creates countless snakes which regenerate from damage and explode on impact of their prey with each of them having the explosive force of a paper bomb thanks to the explosive snake venom i gave them all . You can't escape the nimble assault of my snake attacks " Orochimaru explained to me as one of the snakes hit the tree exploding.

" This is bad Jiraiya boy ! " Fukasaku stated.

" If those things bite me, i'm done for ! " i said to them.

" Jiraiya, you need to summon the Densetsu Ryūsējigama (伝説龍セージをガマLegendary Dragon Sage Toad) " Shima said to me.

" What ? " i asked them.

" It's a 1,000 year old dragon toad which process flames 3 times hotter than lava. It's well know to have one of the hottest flames in the world. If you summon him you can beat him " Fukasaku stated.

" Okay, i'll do it to bring back Orochimaru ! " i replied as then did several handsgins to perform when i was swarmed with snakes.

" Time to end this ! " Orochimaru chanted as he created a massive series of explosions which level everything within a 5 mile radius.

Out of the smoke emerged a massive 660 foot high toad which has bullhorns, skin resembling the texture of lava , dragon like head ,sharp claws and a toad body.

" It can't be ! " Orochimaru stated.

" Jiraiya boy summoned the entire great, fire-breathing toad from Mount Myōboku: Rock Lodging " Fukasaku said to Shima.

" That's one large frog ! " Orochimaru said to me as the frog comes right him .

I channeled my Chakra into the massive toad and the toad shoots a massive inferno of flames spreading everywhere within a creates a 6 mile semi radius explosion leveling 3,072,000 trees which forces Orochimaru back while a 4,000 foot mountain behind him melts from the intense flames which burns at 3,600 °C.

The battle dragged out for a while with the Dragon toad overpowering the Dragon snake however it was taking some damage from the exploding snakes . After a while , we were both badly injured with both the Dragon Snake and Dragon Toad badly damaged however Orochimaru was left off-guard.

" Looks like this is it Jiraiya ! " Orochimaru said to me as Ryūsējigama charged up a fireball aimed at Orochimaru, that could of killed Orochimaru but then i desummoned him for didn't want to end his life.

" Jiraiya boy , what are you doing ? " Fukasaku asked me.

" I can't bring myself to kill my best friend , no matter what " i answered.

" You could of killed him right there Jiraiya boy " Shima nagged.

Orochimaru got back up still in his Yamata form now charging up his Chakra .

" That was a foolish thing to do, letting me live is going to be another one of you foiles Jiraiya " Orochimaru said to me as he gather all the snake heads around him and they all charge purple energy from their mouths to form a blackish purple energy ball of electricity.

" Impossible , how do you process Bijūdama ( 尾獣玉Tailed Beast Ball ) ? " i asked him.

" It's not a Tailed Beast Ball, just a powerful imitation of the attack i call Yamata Hikarihō (八岐光砲 Eight Headed Serpent Beam Cannon) " Orochimaru answered.

" If that's how it's going to be,i'll settle this once and for all " i replied as i charged up more Chakra in my right hand while i spat in my left hand forming another Rasengan forming an oily Rasengan .

" Let us give you our strength ! " Shima stated as she breathes fire on my left hand which catches the Rasengan on fire.

" Very well then , Fukasaku use wind release on my right hand " Jiraiya said to Fukasaku.

" Right ! " Fukasaku replied as he breathes wind on his hand as Jiraiya then forms a Wind spiraling around his Rasengan.

" Let me show you this ultimate attack and why i'm known as the Legendary Sannin " i stated as i puts my hands behind me cupping both hands similar to the stance of a Kamehameha wave as both Rasengans form into a black Rasengan with flames around it.

" Time to end your idiocy Jiraiya Yamata Hikarihō (八岐光砲 Eight Headed Serpent Beam Cannon) " Orochimaru chanted as he fires the black ball at me.

" Senjutsu: Gōka Rasengan (業火螺旋丸Senjutsu: Hellfire Spiralling Sphere) " Jiraiya chanted as he gathers his Rasengan in his right hand and launches it like a fireball countering the black ball blast which creates a massive explosion leveling everything within a 15 mile radius leveling 15,360,000 trees and blowing up 4 mountains within the area.

The smoke cleared up to reveal Orochimaru able to negate damage with his regeneration , however i was hit in the knee by Orochimaru's Sword of Kusanagi and i struggled to move while Orochimaru escaped from the area heavily exhausted.

Present day

I failed to bring Orochimaru back for Orochimaru's escape, it was just one of my biggest failures ever . When i look back at my own life, it was full of failure .

" I never give up, i never go back on my ninja way . Until i become Hokage, there's no way i'll die " Naruto's voice said to him.

" That was Naruto's voice, i can hear his words and feel his presence. My time with Naruto was the only point of my life where i haven't failed completely. I must get back up and use the last of my power to protect him.

Meanwhile at West Konoha highlands

Shunsui has reverted back to his sealed swords state due to the lack of Reiatsu and tries to walk with one working leg and picks up his left arm still holding his sword . He walks only to see Jiraiya still breathing despite the brutal injuries and gets out of his coma barely able to stand.

" You're still alive from that level of attack ? I was sure that blow would've destroyed your heart and instantly killed you " Shunsui asked the Sannin.

" I'm...Not... Done ... Yet ! " Jiraiya answered acting in defiance of his own body which has all but failed him.

" You're at your limit human, not even the toughest Shinigami could survive a blow that devastating, it's amazing you can still even stand despite losing so much blood " Shunsui said to the Sannin while very low on Reiatsu and losing blood from his severed arm and bleeding out knee.

" I'm done when i draw my last breath...AURRHGH ! " Jiraiya replied as he coughs up more blood.

" You're a fool, you can't beat me in your condition . I don't do finishing blows either , our battle is done. I'm returning to the Soul Society to heal, you shouldn't feel any more pain after a minute " Shunsui stated as he begins to walk away from the Sannin only to see Jiraiya get up despite being at death's door with a massive slash which near bisected the Sannin.

" I'm far from done ! i won't give up , i won't let you have Naruto ! " Jiraiya said to the elder Captain.

" At my current state, i'm too banged up to fight Naruto so rest assure your godson won't be captured by me however there are still other Captains to bring him in to justice .We don't wish to hurt Naruto, the only thing we want from him is the monster inside of him. We promise to allow him to live the rest of his live in freedom as well as everyone here as long as you Shinobi disarm these tailed beasts and never attack the Soul Society again " Shunsui explained to the Sannin.

" Again ? We never attacked you in the first place, we have no clue where the Soul Society is .We only he...ard about... you... a month ago . Never in my 54 years of living have i even heard about Shinigami ... It doesn't matter though because you attacked us first when you kidnapped the Kazekage " Jiraiya stated while coughing up more blood.

" It doesn't matter who's right or wrong at this point , It doesn't matter who owes who. From the instant they enter into a war, both sides are evil...I hold nothing against you, in fact it's a shame it had to end like this Jiraiya . You and i walk the same path but in the end . War tore us apart just when we were getting close to each other " Shunsui explained to the Sannin as Jiraiya then falls to the ground.

" Naruto , i won't give up . I won't let them have you !" Jiraiya mumbled to himself as he barely stands up while Shunsui is 20 feet ahead of him .

" You have quite a strong will to live don't you ? It's beyond logic to even see you standing despite your mortal wounds but it's best you give up . There's no way you can win this battle .

" Give up... you would never make me give up, you will never make surrender and i will never GIVE UPPPP NARUTO !" Jiraiya shouted as he turns into sage form without the toads which causes the toads to come to his side .

" No Jiraiya boy, don't do it. If you force your body into Sage Mode , there is no turning back. You will die ! " Fukasaku warned him.

" Can't you ...tell.. that i'm already dead . Not even Tsunade can save me now... Tsunade is too heavily injured and exhausted of her Chakra and were miles from the village. I only have a minute left before...i ... die... If i'm going to die ... then i'm taking him with me " Jiraiya explained to them.

"Jiraiya! " Shima said to the Sannin.

" Fukasaku, Shima... Find Tsunade and Naruto and.. Tell them that i always cared for them " Jiraiya said to the toads.

" Okay Jiraiya boy ! " the toads replied as they leave him with tears in their eyes.

" What's going on ? " Shunsui asked shocked to see Jiraiya alive.

" If i'm dying, i'm not going out without a fight. I wonder if you Shinigami have an afterlife of your own or do you cease to exist ... either way...you and i would both vanish from this existence ... Let's end this ... FINAL RASENAGN ! " Jiraiya chanted as he uses his entire life force to form blue energy around his entire body as it heads towards Shunsui.

" FUCK ! " Shunsui shouted as he is caught in the explosion as he tries to escape the blast as the explosion levels everything within a 30 mile radius .

Meanwhile at Squad 4 campgrounds

Rangiku , Izuru and Isane see a massive bright light from the explosion binding them.

" My eyes ! " Rangiku shouted as she struggles to see .

" What's causing this bright blue light ? " Izuru asked frightened by the blinding blight.

" What's this massive force of Reiatsu ? It's unlike anything we witness " Isane stated while struggling to see .

All the attacking root members are blinded by the flash of blue light and stop attacking as well as the Shinigmai.

" What's going on ? " Kiyone shouted struggling to see past the bright light.

Meanwhile at the computer hub of the campground. Akon, Rin and Hiyosu as well as Uryū and Chad are hit by the blinding blue light from a distance.

" What's with this crazy blue light ? " Akon shouted.

" This is Reiatsu ! " Uryū answered.

" The light coming from that blast is even brighter than the sun " Chad stated.

" This is bad ! " Orihime said to the team.

Meanwhile inside the hospital tent. Yachiru sees the light as well as Iba, Hisagi ,Yumichika, Ibiki, Renji and Rukia who are in the hospital bed . Kenpachi, Sajin, Byakuya and Hitsugaya are out cold and don't notice the blast light.

" What's going on ? " Renji asked everyone.

" My eyes, my beautiful eye s! " Yumichika stated trying to shield his eyes from the light.

" The light is so intense ,even wearing sunglasses doesn't shield you from it that well " Iba said to his friends as he's barely able to see.

" What's causing this bright light ? " Rukia asked frightened.

" I don't know. It's as if the sun just exploded all the sudden " Ibiki answered while barely able to see.

" We're doomed, that force of Reiatsu is equivalent to several million Gillian Ceros " Hisagi replied as he ducks down embracing death as well as everyone in the hospital.

500 meters north of Squad 4's campgrounds

Danzō and Ichigo clash attacks with each other with Ichigo holding his sword with both hands while Danzō holds his sword with his right hand when they see a massive flash of light coming at them blinding both of them.

" What the hell is that ? " Ichigo asked as a wave of blue light comes at him, blinding the orange haired teenager and forcing him to block his face.

" What's causing this force of Chakra ? " Danzō asked himself as he blocks against the blinding light.

---

Meanwhile 1 mile east of Konoha General Hospital

Yoruichi and Naruto fight each other as they both throw punches only to be interrupted by the blue light from Jiraiya's attack.

" What the hell is going on ? " Naruto shouted as he struggles to see past the light.

" This light is blinding, who can be releasing this much Reiatsu at once ? " Yoruichi said to herself as she struggles to see as well as all the remaining clones.

---

Meanwhile 1 mile northeast of the campground.

Momo and Nanao feel another wave of Reiatsu that causes them to shake from the massive explosion from a distance followed by a blinding flash of light.

" I can't see ! " Momo shouted.

" Damn it , not again ! " Nanao shouted as she struggles to see.

" What is going on ? " Momo asked shielding her eyes.

" No, it can't be ! " Nanao stated as her face dropped in despair.

" What is it Nanao ? " Momo asked while struggling to see.

" Shunsui, i can't sense his Reiatsu " Nanao answered with tears forming in her eyes.

" No , it can't be ! " Momo stated.

" SHUNSUI ! " Nanao shouted in despair.

Meanwhile 70 miles away in Tanzaku Quarters

The mayor of the town sees a massive explosion from a distance 60 miles in diameter that is 5 miles close to Konoha and 15 miles close to Tanzaku Quarters.

" Did the Nine Tails attack Konoha again ? What's with that massive explosion ? " the mayor asked.

" I don't know ! " the assistant replied as the 60 mile diameter Rasengan then burst releasing a shockwave so loud that the causes both of them to lose the ability to hear.

" This is insane, the explosion is so loud, it ruptured my eardrums " the mayor said to his assistant but the assistant can't hear him.

---

Back at West Konoha Highlands

The explosion clears up forming a massive 50 mile high , 25 mile diameter mushroom cloud that rains down small rocks onto Konoha as well as small pebbles. Fukasaku and Shima emerge out of a barrier they formed to shield themselves from the blast 35 miles away from him at the Hokage monument.

" That was one of an explosion ! " Fukasaku stated.

" Jiraiya boy, he took his own life ! " Shima stated with tears coming out her eyes.

" He did it for a good cause, at least the world is rid of one less powerful Shinigami. Tsunade and Jiraiya's opponents were the strongest Shinigami and both of them are dead. Jiraiya in the end got what he always wanted, he died as a hero defending Konoha like his student before him " Fukasaku stated as they stare at the explosion

The smoke clears up to reveal Jiraiya has become a human sized stature hovering over the 10 mile diameter , 3 mile deep crater. His body is now bloated and now resembles that of a toad. The blast generated the force of 105 Megatons of TNT , over twice the power of the Tsar Bomba. The blast last for 36.5 seconds with the blast sending large amounts of Chakra everywhere.

" Looks like this is it for me ... " Jiraiya said to himself as he slowly falls down to the end of the crater at the speed of 352 ft/sec (240 MPH) descending downwards " It seems in the end, i wasn't that big of a failure. I may of never gotten the girl i loved...I never rescued my best friend from the forces of darkness and greed... I even may have failed to save my student and my master... However i at least died a death worthy of that of a hero. Naruto ! Now that i think about, you really did turn out like the character in my book ...You've inherited your father and mother's aspirations and wishes . Naruto , you are the Child of Prophecy, i'm sure of it now . I entrust you to lead this world to a new age... an age free from the cruel fate of war ... So this is how the Tale of Jiraiya the Gallant ends ? ...I hope it would have ended better ... i guess this is the last chapter to my life... The Frog in the Well drifts into the Great Ocean...Not bad, not bad at all ...Now it's about time put down my pen ...I almost forgot, what should i name my sequel ?...Let's see... how about The Tale of Naruto Uzumaki ? Yes ...That has a nice ring to it... hopefully in the afterlife i meet a beautiful angel there as well " Jiraiya said to himself as he drops down to the 15,840 foot deep crater and shatters to bits which causes immense shaking.

Meanwhile at Konoha General Hospital

The underground level of the hospital starts to shake violently while Shizune, Sakura and Ino give Tsunade the last of their Chakra. The Hospital and all of Konoha is hit by a 8.6 earthquake.

" What's going on ? " Ino stated while the shaking causes her to fall down.

" An earthquake ! " Sakura answered as she also struggles to stand .

" What's causing this massive earthquake ? " Tsunade asked when she suddenly senses the Reiatsu and her face drops.

" What's wrong Tsunade ? " Shizune questioned.

" It can't be, no it can't be .. . " Tsunade answered in a stoic tone.

" What happened Tsunade ? " Sakura asked.

" I'm too late, Jiraiya is dead !" Tsunade replied as she punches the ground while tears come out her eyes.

" Lady Tsunade ! " Shizune shouted trying to comfort her.

" That fool ! Why did he kill himself ? " Tsunade shouted .

" What do we do ? " Shizune asked.

" Give me your energy, i need to finish this battle and kill every Shinigami in this entire village ... THEY WILL PAY FOR JIRAIYA'S DEATH ! " Tsunade shouted in fury clenching her fist so hard , blood comes out of the palm.

500 meters north of Squad 4's campgrounds

Danzō is trying to recover from the blinding light but his Sharingan bas been strained.

" Damn it, the Sharingan has been scrambled a bit " Danzō said to himself as he struggles to recover his sight.

" Now's my chance to strike , he's still recovering his eyesight " Ichigo said to himself as he prepares his attack.

Ichigo grabs the chain of his Bankai with his Getsuga Tenshō compressed into the blade and then twirls it around in a clockwise fashion spinning it around while still wearing his Vizard mask. Ichigo charges up Reiatsu around him which becomes a dense black and red spiral of energy that becomes an energy drill around him . He stops twirling around his Bankai as the energy forming around his sword.

" Getsuga Kussakuyari (月牙掘削槍 Moon Fang Drilling Lance ) " Ichigo chanted as his Bankai becomes a large energy drill he holds with two hands as an aura of his Vizard mask appears over him and Ichigo's eyes glow blue while his eyeballs are black.

" What is going on ? " Danzō stated trying to recover his vision.

" This is the end, time to take you down with everything i got " Ichigo replied as he holds on to his mask reforging it and then swings his sword with Getsuga Tenshō energy on it as Danzō reopens his eyes.

" Not bad taking advantage of your foes while their down but it won't work " Danzō stated as he blocks Ichigo's attack with his sword but his sword chips and Danzō is pushed back 50 feet away .

" I got you now! " Ichigo said to Danzō as he dashes at him.

" Wind Style: Vacuum Wave " Danzō chanted as he takes a deep breath and spins while exhaling, compressing the released air into a solitary blade of wind at point-blank range of Ichigo but Ichigo shields against it using his black red Reiatsu and revealing his Bankai now looks like a black and red lance.

" That won't work on me this time ! " Ichigo stated as condenses his Getsuga Kussakuyari (月牙掘削槍 Moon Fang Drilling Lance ) into his blade.

" Then try this on for size! " Danzō replied as he gathers wind around his sword which forms a greenish-yellow aura around his katana " Iaidō:Kazewaru (居合道風を割るWay of Iai :Dividing Wind ) " Danzō chanted as he charges at Ichigo with high-speed running slash with wind on his blade but Ichigo uses his Bankai to block the blade.

" Getsuga Kussakuyari (月牙掘削槍 Moon Fang Drilling Lance ) " Ichigo chanted as he shatters Danzō's Katana with the drill like attack.

" Impossible, no one has been able to break my Wind blade with just Chakra alone, ARRGH! " Danzō shouted as the blast spins and builds up spiritual energy like a drill inflicting extreme piercing damages as the attack compresses into the body and all the spiritual power hits Danzō at once causing a massive 1 mile radius explosion forming a vertical spiraling black red Reiatsu wave shaped like a drill.

Meanwhile at Squad 4 campgrounds

Rangiku , Izuru and Isane see a massive explosion of black Reiatsu from a distance.

" What a monstrous explosion ! " Rangiku shouted as she struggles to see .

" That Reiatsu is coming from Kurosaki ! " Izuru stated.

" That's impossible, that Reiatsu is more powerful than any Captain Reiatsu i sensed " Isane said to them.

" How could Ichigo get this powerful in such a short time ? " Rangiku asked them.

All the attacking root members stop to see the massive explosion as well as the Shinigmai.

" What's going on ? " Kiyone shouted.

" It's Ichigo ! " one of the guys answered.

" All that Reiatsu is coming from him ? It's no surprise why he's this strong. He's almost as strong as Ukitake " Kiyone stated.

Meanwhile at the computer hub of the campground. Akon, Rin and Hiyosu calculate the size and power of Ichigo's blast.

" That blast power was scaled at 1,000,000 RYK " Akon said to his colleagues.

" That's madness, with that much spiritual power, one could create an explosion the size of the Hiroshima bomb " Hiyosu stated.

" It seems all that training Ichigo did with the Vizards paid off well " Rin replied.

Meanwhile inside the hospital tent. Yachiru sees the light as well as Iba, Hisagi ,Yumichika, Ibiki, Renji and Rukia who are in the hospital bed . Kenpachi, Sajin, Byakuya and Hitsugaya are out cold and don't notice the blast light.

" What's going on ? " Renji asked everyone.

" It's Ichigo, he released some kind of power attack, " Yumichika answered.

" That was Kurosaki ? He has as much Reiatsu now as Kenpachi and Komamura now, no wonder he managed to beat someone as strong as Captain Kuchiki " Iba said to his friends .

" How did Ichigo get this powerful in such a short amount of time ? " Rukia asked.

" You're telling me, several months ago he couldn't fight a measly Menos and now he has the Reiatsu of 4,000 Menos Grandes " Renji stated.

" It's a good thing we have a guy like that on our side " Ibiki answered.

" Indeed , hopefully there's no one as powerful as Ichigo on the enemies side or we would have serious problems " Hisagi replied .

Sai, Fū and Torune are watching Danzō fight at are worried about him.

" Danzō, he's been defeated ! " Torune stated.

" Relax Torune, Danzō won't go down so easily. He's a Kage , it would take more than that large explosion to kill him off " Fū replied.

" Still, doesn't mean we can drop our guards just yet, we should probably aid Danzō just in case " Sai said to his colleagues.

" Right Sai ! " Fū and Torune replied as they head to Ichigo's location.

Meanwhile Uryū, Chad and Orihime sense Ichigo's Reiatsu from a distance.

" I never thought Ichigo was this powerful " Uryū said to Chad.

" Indeed,even our power increases pale in comparison to his powers " Chad stated.

" It's sad i spent all this time competing to rival Ichigo's power and now the power gap between me and Ichigo has grown wider " Uryū explained to his best friend.

" Well we can always train to get stronger later " Chad said to Uryū.

" Guys, we should probably help Ichigo. He seems to be losing spiritual energy fast " Orihime said to them.

" She's right, it looks like Ichigo has reached his limits " Uryū replied as they head out.

Meanwhile 1 mile east of Konoha General Hospital

Yoruichi and Naruto continue to fight however Naruto's 9,000 clones are all gone leaving Naruto alone and by himself .

" Only one remains ! " Yoruichi stated bored from fighting Naruto.

" This woman, she's insanely strong! Even with an entire army of shadow clones, i couldn't land a single hit on her! This woman's completely different from the other two Captains i fought " Naruto said to himself.

" Was that all you got ? You might beat a Captain with those moves of yours but where's that power that was said to be above Captain level ? You stand no chance against me and it seems like you're the only remaining fighter in this village that can challenge a Captain " Yoruichi explained to Naruto.

" What do you mean ? " Naruto asked.

" All the Jōunin are hospitalized, your Hokage is out of commission and out of Chakra and your master Jiraiya is dead " Yoruichi answered.

" Stop making shit up, Pervy Sage is too powerful to die ! " Naruto stated.

" That explosion seemed to have came from the Legendary Sannin Jiraiya , looks like your master has died as well as Shunsui " Yoruichi explained to Naruto.

" No it can't be, don't make shit up like that ! " Naruto shouted.

" Don't be so naive, that explosion was from the Toad Sage. There's no one else who could process that much spiritual energy . Now there's no one left to stop us from capturing you " Yoruichi stated.

" Shut up, i'm going to kick your ass for that lie ! " Naruto shouted.

" Naruto retreat !" Katsuyu said to him.

" What are you talking about ? " Naruto asked.

" What she says is true, Jiraiya is dead !" Katsuyu answered.

" No, it can't be ! " Naruto stated as tears form around his eyes and turns around.

" It's no use running or hiding from me, you can never beat the Goddess of Flash in battle. It's best you give up while you're ahead " Yoruichi said to Naruto but Naruto's eyes glow with intense anger.

" You bitch ! I'm going to kick the shit out of you and every Shinigami here ! " Naruto stated with a furious tone.

" Please kid, you should give up while you're ahead ! " Yoruichi said to Naruto as she walks towards him and grabs him only to see his eyes turn red .

" You should give up , on making me give up ! " Naruto replied as he punches Yoruichi in the face knocking her back 50 feet.

" This is bad , he's starting to transform into the Ninetails. The Seal Soifon put on his Bijuu powers must be wearing off ! " Yoruichi said to herself as she gets back up only to see red eye Naruto in the air.

" Shadow Clone Jutsu " Naruto shouted as he creates 4 clones to kick Yoruichi down while the real one does a jumping knee strike.

" Shit ! " Yoruichi shouted as she is hit in the stomach by Naruto's knee.

" RAWWGH ! " Naruto shouted as he also punches her in the face while she's on the ground.

" ARRGGH !" Yoruichi shouted in pain.

" Take this, and this ! " Naruto shouted as he punches Yoruichi 10 times with each punch causing the ground to cave in 1 feet deep and blood to splatter from Yoruichi's face.

" AGGHH !Stop ! " Yoruichi begged as he face is messed up with her teeth broken, eyes swollen and serious bruising on the face with her nose caved in and filled with blood and her face purple.

" Die you bitch ! " Naruto shouted in fury as he hits her with the Rasengan only to see it's an after image and kick kicked by Yoruichi who doesn't have a starch on her.

" Fooled ya, as you can see i can fool even the best trained eyes with my afterimages ! " Yoruichi taunted.

" You guys attack my village and then attack my friends and now Pervy Sage is dead because of you guys... I CAN NEVER FORGIVE YOU " Naruto shouted as his anger flares up as he is surrounded by orange Chakra.

Naruto's body is surrounded by a bubbling Chakra-construct, taking on the shape of a 3-Tailed Fox. His pupils become slitted, and will change from blue to red. His nails and teeth grow longer and sharper and his blonde hair grows longer and 's whisker marks also widen and thicken.

" I see, you wish to have some fun ! " Yoruichi said to Naruto as she isn't fazed by his Charka surge.

" ROAAARGH ! " Naruto roared as creates a Chakra shockwave which destroys everything within a 500 foot radius but Yoruichi stand unfazed.

" Not bad but you have to do better than that to win in this fight " Yoruichi taunted .

" I'm not letting you take me over this easily... I need to beat her using this power before it's too late " Naruto said to himself as he forms the Rasenshuriken in his right hand which gains a distinct red aura.

" Time to deliver the knockout blow Hadō # 73 Sōren Sōkatsui (双蓮蒼火墜, Twin Lotus Blue Fire, Crash Down)" Yoruichi chanted as she puts her two hands together and fires a massive blast of blue fire at Naruto and creates a massive 600 foot radius but Naruto easily shields against it with his Chakra. Naruto dashes at her with his attack

" Fūton: Rasenshuriken (風遁・螺旋手裏剣Wind Release: Spiralling Shuriken ) " Naruto shouted as he hits Yoruichi in the with the blast but Yoruichi blocks the blast.

" He's controlling the Tailed Beast Chakra to enhance his strength greatly " Yoruichi said to herself as she struggles to block the attack but she's being pushed back 1,000 feet.

" RRWAWARGH ! " Naruto roared as he manages to overpower Yoruichi.

" Impossible, i couldn't block it ! " Yoruichi stated as she is sent flying 1,000 feet flying westward before a massive 1 mile radius explosion occurs forming a massive spherical blast similar to a nuclear explosion .

Meanwhile at Konoha General Hospital

Tsunade is crying from the loss of Jiraiya when she hears the explosion from a close distance.

" What's that massive explosion ? " Tsunade asked Katsuyu.

" It's Naruto, he's rampaging in 3 Tails mode " Katsuyu answered.

" Damn it, of all times he has to go on a rampage ! " Tsunade stated.

" Were done healing you up and giving you your Chakra back " Shizune said to Tsunade.

" Okay then, now to put on some clothes and stop Naruto from destroying what's left of this village " Tsunade replied as she gets back up while Sakura is exhausted of her energy as well as Ino.

" Don't worry Tsunade, i'l get Yamato's cure finished in no time " Sakura said to Tsunade.

" For all out sakes, i hope you do ! " Tsunade replied.

---

Meanwhile 1 mile east of Konoha General Hospital

The smoke cloud clears up from the massive explosion which formed a 125 ft deep 459 ft diameter crater, produced by the attack, the explosion was the equivalent of 7.5 Kilotons of TNT, nearly half the explosive force of the Hiroshima Bomb. Naruto calms himself down and reverts back to normal with the skin on his right arm burned off exposing his burnt flesh.

" That was too close for comfort , i almost lost it again ! " Naruto said to himself as he is exhausted of his energy while holding on to his badly damaged arm.

Out of the smoke emerges a white aura with Yoruichi surrounded with white energy around her. Her orange jacket is gone and is no wearing a sleek black jumpsuit with the back exposed. Yoruichi is unfazed by the attack.

" I must admit, you almost had with that last attack . To think i was forced to use my full power Shunkō on you, you really are impressive. No wonder my student Soifon lost to you " Yoruichi said to him.

" Impossible , you used the same technique as that woman before but how did you escape unharmed ? Her whatever you called it was easily broken by just a regular Rasenshuriken yet you survived unfazed from a 3 Tail enhanced version. How is that even possible ? " Naruto explained to her horrified to see her strength.

" It's simple, Soifon while she's powerful simply doesn't compare to me. My own base power is 5 times greater than her in her Shikai state , you never stood a chance against me. My power is greater than 5 Captains combined " Yoruichi answered.

" I must defeat you ! " Naruto shouted as he erupts into his 3 Tails mode again and lashes out out of anger and goes to attack her again with a red Rasengan.

" You never learn do you ? " Yoruichi said to Naruto as she stands there.

" Fūton: Rasenshuriken (風遁・螺旋手裏剣Wind Release: Spiralling Shuriken ) " Naruto shouted as he charges at Yoruichi again.

" Hanki (反鬼, Reverse Demon) " Yoruichi countered as she stuns Naruto's arm and dispels the 3 Tails Chakra turning Naruto back to normal.

" Impossible, she stopped my strongest attack with her bare hand " Naruto said to himself shocked that Yoruichi said to Naruto.

" I'm though toying with you , it's time you come quietly with me " Yoruichi said to Naruto.

" Never, OVER 9,000 Shadow Clone Jutsu ( 以上九千影分身の術 Ijō Kyū sen Kage Bunshin no Jutsu)" Naruto states as each of his clones make 1,000 clones each, in total making 9,001 Narutos.

" You think that would work ! " Yoruichi stated as she uses her aura and wipes out all the clones with ease.

" Impossible ! " Naruto stated.

" If you don't wish to come quietly, then i would have to make sure you don't walk away " Yoruichi replied.

Back 1 mile north of Squad 4's campgrounds

Ichigo's Hollow mask breaks off and shatters as Ichigo is out of Reiatsu as his Bankai sword starts to slowly crack . The smoke cloud clears up from the massive explosion which formed a 125 ft deep 459 ft diameter crater, produced by the attack, the explosion was the equivalent of 7.5 Kilotons of TNT, nearly half the explosive force of the Hiroshima Bomb.

" I got him , i managed to beat a Kage in battle ! " Ichigo said to himself.

Suddenly the smoke clears up to see Danzō standing there unfazed with no injuries on his body however his right sleeve has been torn revealing three big golden braces with one of them shattered into pieces falling to the ground with smoke around him.

" You almost had me with that last attack ! Had you not hit one of these sealing arm braces,you could of killed me with that attack . I'm impressed that you can think so underhanded boy " Danzō said to Ichigo.

" Impossible, i hit you directly with my Getsuga Kussakuyari (月牙掘削槍 Moon Fang Drilling Lance ) while using my Hollow Mask. How are you still standing there without a starch on you ? " Ichigo asked freaked out at what he saw.

" Allow me to explain, i used an air barrier to slow down your attack until it hit the golden brace on my arm. With that brace shattered, i was able to shield it with the Chakra is stored up and repelled your attack " Danzō explained to Ichigo.

" Braces ? " Ichigo asked.

" Each of these braces act as a limiter to my Chakra, each of them decrease my Chakra by 500% which allows me to use my Chakra more efficiently and wisely in battle " Danzō explained to Ichigo.

" Limiters ? " Ichigo questioned with a shocked look on his face.

" Right now i'm 5 times stronger than i was before you used your strongest attack. Hopefully that wasn't all you got because i'm just getting warmed up kid and you proved to be a good workout so far " Danzō stated stretching his arms.

" This is madness, he's been holding back that much power all this time ? He took down Byakuya and Hitsugaya with ease with all his braces on meaning he wasn't even using 1% of his power against them. I knew Kages were strong but this is ridiculous, i need to hit him before he attacks me then get out of here " Ichigo said to himself as he forces his Vizard mask on.

" What are you doing Ichigo ? Trying to use the Vizard mask while at it's limits is going to damage your body " Zangetsu warned him.

" Sorry Zangetsu but i have no choice , i must hit him while i still have a Bankai state " Ichigo stated as he reforms his Bankai.

" What about your Inner Hollow ? " Zangetsu questioned him.

" I'll worry about that later, if i don't do something, i'm dead for sure and running away isn't an option either , so i must knock him down then escape while he's recovering " Ichigo stated as he goes to do his attack again.

" Looks like you're getting serious ! " Danzō stated .

" Getsuga Kussakuyari (月牙掘削槍 Moon Fang Drilling Lance ) " Ichigo shouted as he charges at Danzō.

" Fool ! " Danzō replied as he aimed his finger at Ichigo charging at him.

" What the ? " Ichigo stated.

" Fūton: Kyojin Sōji Dangan ( 風遁・巨人掃除弾丸 Wind Style: Giant Vacuum Bullet ) " Danzō chanted as he fired a greenish-yellow wind blast at Ichigo who is then hit by the blast and sent flying into the campground.

Meanwhile at Squad 4's campground

Fighting between Root members and Shinigami continue as chaos erupts when they see Ichigo hit the Main gate and the gate implodes. Rangiku , Izuru and Isane see the gate crumble around them.

" This is bad, the gate's collapsing ! " Rangiku shouted as she struggles to see .

" Ichigo was just thrown into the gate ! " Izuru stated.

" That's impossible, Ichigo was so strong ! " Isane said to them.

" Who could of overpowered Ichigo that easily especially with Ichigo's massive Reiatsu " Rangiku asked them.

All the attacking root members stop to see the massive explosion as well as the Shinigami to see lord Danzō slowly walking the distance.

" It's lord Danzō, he busted down the gate ! " said one of the Root members.

" All that Reiatsu is coming from him ? It's no surprise why he's this strong. He's almost as strong as Ukitake " Kiyone stated.

Meanwhile at the computer hub of the campground. Akon, Rin and Hiyosu are panicking at the collapse of the wall.

" This is bad, the Sekkiseki wall was just shattered ! " Rin stated.

" How is it possible for any attack to do so much damage ? " Hiyosu asked.

" That attack that impacted the wall was at 1,200,000 RYK " Akon said to his colleagues.

" We're in serious trouble ! " Rin replied cowering in fear.

Meanwhile across the campground. sirens have been sound everywhere as everyone is now panicking over the invading Root Shinobi.

" This is bad, we're going to die ! " Hanataro shouted.

" Make sure all the patients are safe, we'll fight them off " said one of the Squad 11 members.

Meanwhile at the relief tent ,everyone is at a panic about what's going on.

" What's going on ? " Renji asked everyone.

" The campground has been breached ! " Yumichika answered.

" How is that even possible ? There's no way anyone can break through Sekkiseki , a material known to negate all Reiryoku, similar to magnetic lodestones. " Iba said to his friends .

" We can't sit here and do nothing ! " Rukia stated as she goes to walk out.

" Stop Rukia, none of us are in any condition to fight, besides whoever shattered the Sekkiseki wall is too powerful for any of us to deal with " Renji stated.

" So what the hell do we do ? " Ibiki asked.

" We hope one of the Captains come to save us " Hisagi replied .

---

Meanwhile 500 meters from the campground

Sai, Fū and Torune see Danzō at the campground.

" He shattered the walls while defeating his opponent " Torune stated.

" I knew Danzō won't go down so easily ! " Fū replied.

" Now we can take care of the medical squad inside of the campground " Sai said to his colleagues.

" Right Sai ! " Fū and Torune replied as they head to the campground.

---

Back at the Campground walls

Ichigo gets back up barely able to move back to his Shikai state with his kimono badly damaged and he's badly injured from the blast. Ichigo removes a heavy chunk of stone on his back from the collapsed wall with blood coming out his head and arms from the cuts on them.

" What power, he easily overpowered my Hollowfied Getsuga Kussakuyari with just a single finger blast " Ichigo said to himself only to see Danzō there.

" I'm impressed by your reaction time, you used your powerful attack to block my Fūton: Kyojin Sōji Dangan ( 風遁・巨人掃除弾丸 Wind Style: Giant Vacuum Bullet ) and you're the first in a long time to shatter my sword while i was using Iaidō:Kazewaru (居合道風を割るWay of Iai :Dividing Wind ) , i give you props for having some skill and power but your sword skills are still limited and the extent you can control your demon powers are limited compared to the likes of Yagura and Killer B . Had you process full control of that power, you could've won but you're out of power. It's time you come with me " Danzō explained to Ichigo but Ichigo puts his bandaged Zangetsu at Danzō 's face.

" I'll never surrender... you're not going to kill these medical Shinigami " Ichigo replied panting out of breath.

" You don't learn do you ? You're no different than the Nine Tails brat, i guess i need to cut that sword arm of yours so you never use it again " Danzō replied as he goes to cut Ichigo's arm off using another sword but then breathes on it.

" What are you doing ? " Ichigo asked.

" Fūton: Shinkūjin (風遁・真空刃Wind Style: Vacuum Blade ) " Danzō chanted as he swings downward with his right hand towards Ichigo's arm.

" Shiten Kōshun (四天抗盾, Shield of Four Heavens' Resistance) " Orihime countered as she throws her hairpins, creating a pyramidal shield getting in front of Ichigo.

" No , Orihime, get out of the way ! " Ichigo shouted.

" Foolish girl, you think any barrier could block a Wind Style blade from a Kage level Shinobi ? Get real ! " Danzō taunted as he swings down and hits the barrier however all the explosive force of the attack from Danzō is instantly turned against him and he is sent flying 50 feet away .

" What the ? How did you deflect his attack ? " Ichigo asked Orihime.

" Shiten Kōshun (四天抗盾, Shield of Four Heavens' Resistance) diffuses the impact of an attack by exploding the moment it's hit " Orihime explained to Ichigo.

" What was that power i saw, was Orihime always capable of doing something like this ? " Ichigo said to himself.

" I'll heal your up ! " Orihime said to Ichigo said to Orihime .

The smoke clears up to reveal Danzō has small cut on his right arm . Fū and Torune as well as Sai rush to him.

" Danzō, what happened ? " Fū asked.

" Nothing, just a small cut that's all ! " Danzō stated.

" I saw what happened, that girl with the orange hair deflected one of your attacks " Sai said to them.

" Impossible, there's no way that can happen, not even my mental barriers can stop his blade " Fū replied.

" She would be the last to do so ! " Danzō replied as he comes towards Ichigo and Orihime.

Meanwhile 1 mile east of Konoha General Hospital

Naruto struggles to fight Yoruichi but Yoruichi fights him in base form after depowering her Shunkō.

" Hakuda 7. Bōryoku Tekinatōsō (暴力的な闘争Violent Struggle)" Yoruichi chanted as she throws a variety of 30 punches with right hand ,then 30 punches with her left hand and 20 kicks and then finishes with palm strike to Naruto's stomach knocking him 300 feet .

" ARRGH ! " Naruto shouted in pain as he struggles to get back up.

" Hakuda # 16 . Senfītoha(千フィート刃Thousand feet blades ) " Yoruichi chanted as she does a series of 50 kicks in 5 seconds within 20 of them horizontal kicks and 30 of them lunging kicks as well with Reiatsu infused on them.

" I can't follow her movements at all, she's too fast for me ! " Naruto said to himself as he's knocked down by another kick. Naruto gets back up with blood coming out of his head.

" You're a real glutton for punishment, seriously give up and come quietly, you're no match for me at all " Yoruichi arrogantly taunted.

" Eat a dick bitch ! " Naruto replied as he comes at her with a clone " Ōdama Rasengan( 大玉螺旋丸Great Ball Spiralling Sphere) " Naruto chanted he carries a Rasengan 3 times larger than normal and directly hits Yoruichi but Yoruichi is unfazed by the attack.

" You're really starting to bore me " Yoruichi replied as she kicks Naruto in the face.

" Damn it ! " Naruto shouted as he goes to punch Yoruichi but at just 1 inch of her face, Yoruichi grabs his head.

" Don't you think it's time to give up ? " Yoruichi taunted but it was a clone.

" Got you this time ! " Naruto stated as he comes at Yoruichi with a kunai but Yoruichi kicks him in the face.

" You need 100 years before you can catch the Goddess of Flash ! " Yoruichi taunted as Naruto struggles to get up.

Back at the Campground walls

Ichigo is being healed by Orihime .

" Just a bit longer Ichigo ! " Orihime said to Ichigo.

Danzō heads towards them.

" You broke all my blades but try breaking this one ! " Danzō said to Orihime as he draws a blade from the cane.

" Orihime look out ! " Ichigo shouted as Danzo goes to kill her.

" Now die ! " Danzo shouted as he swings his blade at Orihime and is about to kill her but suddenly he is stopped by Kisuke.

" Kisuke ! " Orihime said to him as Kisuke appears to save them.

" Looks like we have a problem here ! " Kisuke stated.

---

Meanwhile 1 mile east of Konoha General Hospital

Naruto is badly beaten with his face bruised up and blood coming out his nose and forehead and his legs broken but he's still trying to get back up.

" You're pretty stubborn, you still refuse to give up ? " Yoruichi asked him.

" I told you and all your Shinigami buddies that i never give up and i won't quit " Naruto replied.

" Then i'll have to deliver the knockout blow ! " Yoruichi stated as she uses Shunpo to appear behind him but before she can land a hit, she is hit by a kick into the stomach which pushes her 50 feet back .

" Grandma Tsunade ! " Naruto said to the busty woman in front of him who is now wearing no jacket and grey, kimono-style blouse with no sleeves, held closed by a broad, dark bluish-grey obi that matches her pants.

" Naruto leave here right now ! " Tsunade said to him in a somber tone.

" Right ! " Naruto replied as he walks away from the area.

" You're not going anywhere ! " Yoruichi stated as she dashes at Naruto moving at 60,000ft/sec(40,900 MPH) but Tsunade uses Chakra in her feet to match her speed.

" Don't get in my way ! " Tsunade replied as she flicks her finger covered with blue Chakra to create a shockwave repelling Yoruichi 330 feet through several ruined buildings while Naruto escapes.

" Tsunade is strong, she sent that woman flying with a single finger whereas i couldn't even damage her with Ōdama Rasengan " Naruto said to himself as he walks away from battle.

Yoruichi gets back up unfazed by Tsunade's attacks but is covered with dirt.

" Looks like i found the Hokage herself. It's been awhile since i met a fighter strong enough to flick me 1/2 a city block . No wonder my student couldn't kill you " Yoruichi said to Tsunade.

" You mean that assassin earlier was your doing ? " Tsunade asked Yoruichi.

" Yep. I can always catch the Nine Tails later, however it should be fun fighting someone as strong as you to the death " Yoruichi answered.

" So you're in charge off everything huh ? Then in that case, i'll avenge Jiraiya and end this war " Tsunade replied as she comes at Yoruichi.

" Bring it Hokage ! " Yoruichi responded as they both come at each other.

(A/N: Ukitake has met his tragic end in the hands of the Fifth Hokage while Jiraiya has met his fate taking his own life to kill Shunsui to save Naruto.
