September 24 ,2001 12:30 P.M. Konohagakure , Narutoverse
The entire Leaf Village is engulfed in an intense Chakra from the release of the 4 Tails and Ichigo's full Hollow form. Both creatures stand looking at each other face to face with each other.
7 1/2 hours has passed since the invasion of Konoha . 1,500 of the Gotei 13 forces managed to invade and attack Konohagakure and fight off the 3,200 ninjas within the massive metropolis of a village. Konoha lies in ruins as every building within the villages has been toppled and reduced to rubble. The clouds of darkness have subsided since Orihime used her Angel form.
5,638 civilians have been killed whereas 11,809 were injured. The village has went into a quiet state for most of the Shinobi have retreated inward to defend the last key points within the village . 166 ANBU members have been killed, 1,168 ninjas in total with 1,053 wounded.
52 root members were killed by Orihime including Fū and Torune, the most powerful members of Root with the additional 95 members killed off by Shinigmai which increases the overall ninja death toll to 1,313 ninjas. The 200 troops under Root haven been reduced to only 55 Root members who have retreated back into their secret underground base. The remaining 834 ninjas have been scattered across the city searching for and bringing the injured into hospitals as fights throughout the city has greatly slowed down since the Captains fought .
The Root invasion on Squad 4's campground caused a great deal of damage to the campground . 400 Shinigmai defended the campground against Root and out of the defenders who fought, 89 were killed in action and 287 were injured. Despite being healed by Orihime, all the injured Shinigami lost a great deal of Reiatsu and can no longer fight. Only 24 Shinigmai are left in the campground that are activate and combat and none of them can fight. Among the uninjured are Hanataro, Rin, Hiyosu,Akon and Harunobu Ogidō as well as other medical Shinigami.
The Soul Society lost 166 Onmitsukidō ninjas and 1,094 people out of 1,500 originally here but with a 700 troop surge , there are 2,200 troops but with 922 Shinigmai injured , there are only 184 Shinigmai left in active combat. All the active Shinigmai are busy searching for injured soldiers taking advantage that the fighting has died down and are now retreating from the village.
Can the Shinigmai and the Shinobi survive the onslaught from the demon duo ?
Outside of Konoha General Hospital
12:30 P.M. Yamato stands with the barrier erected as the explosive waves of Chakra and Reiatsu engulf the village.
" Nice save Yamato ! " Sakura stated.
" Had not for this barrier, we would of been done for " Yamato replied.
" This isn't good , the Tailed Beast are fighting within the village itself " Shikaku said to them.
" This is not good at all !" Shizune replied.
" What is this intense Chakra i'm sensing ? " Sakura asked herself .
" How are we going to contain those beasts ? " Inoichi asked Yamato.
" We need to stay put here until they tried each other out or we find an opening, charging out head first would the fastest way to kill yourself " Yamato answered.
" What if they blow up the entire village ? " Ino questioned.
" The village is already leveled, there's no way it could get worse from here , the best thing we can do is hope Tsunade comes to aid us " Yamato replied as they stay put here.
" This is such a drag, i'll never forgive myself if Kurenai dies. I can never face Asuma sensei in the afterlife because of that " Shikamaru stated.
" Relax son, no one else is going to die here, not as long as we continue to fight " Shikaku said to his son.
" I'll send out a clone to check when it's safe ! " Yamato said to the team as he creates his clone.
At the same time
Midtown Konoha ruins
12:30 P.M. Both Kyuubi Naruto and Hollow Ichigo are within an immense 4,000 feet diameter , 800 feet deep crater. Both of them stare at each other with intent to murder each other. Both creatures are merely
" ROAGRAGAGAGAGAH ! " Kyuubi Naruto roared as he sends a blast of wind at Hollow Ichigo but it has no effect on the Lizard creature.
" AUUGGGHRAWA ! " Hollow Ichigo roared as he sends his own sonic roar at Kyuubi Naruto but the 4 Tails isn't fazed.
Both creatures charge at each other moving at 330,000 ft/sec (225,000 MPH ) . They both move so fast they clash 30 attacks within a split second with both of them being unfazed by the slashes due to their dense skins. Hollow Ichigo raises it's Bankai while Kyuubi Naruto raises it's right hand.
" RWAAGRAGAGAGAGAH ! " Kyuubi Naruto roars it swings down it's claw towards Ichigo.
" AAAHAHAGGHWAH ! " Hollow Ichigo roared as it swings down it's Bankai towards Naruto.
Both attacks clashing create a shockwave of destruction that levels everything within a 1 mile radius.
Meanwhile 1.5 miles from the crater
The Yamato clone struggles to withstand the force of the shockwave both creatures created with their raw power.
" What a shock wave ! And he created it just with a single swipe of his arm " Yamato expressed with shock.
Meanwhile outside the Konoha General Hospital
" A shockwave ? He generates that much power just by slamming his hand on the ground ? " Sakura asked.
" We can't get any closer to them at this point " Shikamaru stated .
Meanwhile 40 Miles south of Konoha
Tsunade senses the massive Chakra of the 4 Tails and Hollow Ichigo.
" This is bad ! " Tsunade said to Katsuyu.
" The explosion just killed 14,644 people and burrowed 800 feet deep " Katsuyu explained to Tsunade.
" You gotta be kidding me , even the underground shelters are of no use ? " Tsunade asked Katsuyu.
" Yep , these beasts are going to destroy everything in their path if their not stopped " Katsuyu said to Tsunade.
" Damn it , we need to head back to the village as soon as possible " Tsunade stated.
" It's going to take a while in your condition Lady Tsunade. You can barely walk now that you used up Creation Rebirth to reform the lower half of your body " Katsuyu stated.
" Damn it ! " Tsunade shouted only for Shima and Fukasaku to appear .
" We'll help you get back to the village, Shima summon it " Fukasaku commanded.
" Right ! " Shima replied as she summons a large toad to ride on.
" How do you plan to stop the Tailed Beasts ? Even if you eat the food pill, your body can't handle the stress of fighting off two Tailed Beasts by yourself after using Creation Rebirth over 5 times " Katsuyu asked.
" I'll use my secret sealing technique i made from starch that can seal the Tailed Beasts. My body hasn't made a full physical recovery and is now going through strain from the Creation Rebirth Jutsu . Shizune gave me this food pill which would allow me to briefly go to my maximum power even with my body severely weakened long enough to seal them with the last of my Chakra. Since Yamato can only seal Naruto because he process the First Hokage's necklace, i'll seal the other one " Tsunade explained to them.
" Very well then ! " Let's head to the village " Katsuyu said to them.
" Right ! " the elder toads replied as they all ride the frog to the village .
Meanwhile at Konoha General Hospital
Kakashi and Gai feel the ground shaking earthquake which causes a violent chain reaction that knocks everything and everyone to the ground.
" This is bad ! " Kakashi said to Gai.
" Naruto has turned into his 4 Tailed form " Gai stated.
" We're in serious trouble , the Soul Society must be planning to take out this village as well as taking Naruto " Kakashi explained.
" We can't let him do that ! " Gai replied as he struggles to move.
" There's nothing we can do in our current state , we're powerless to do anything. The only ones who can stop this is Yamato and the Hokage " Kakashi responded.
Meanwhile Neji and Kurenai feel the presence of the Nine Tails.
" This is bad, it's like the time the Nine Tails attacked this village " Kurenai said to Neji.
" Or the time it attacked our team a while back " Neji stated.
" The Nine Tails killed my father in battle " Kurenai said to Neji.
" You lost your father to the Nine Tails ? " Neji asked her.
" I remember the attack like it was yesterday " Kurenai answered as she recaps the event.
16 years ago
Kurenai's pov
The monster stood 56 stories high and his tails were each the size of the empire state building. Me and Asuma rushed out to the forest where we were going to leave the village to fight the monster only to be stopped by the barrier team led by my father.
" I'm afraid that i can't let you pass here " my father said to me.
" What do you mean we can't go ? " i asked father.
" This is not a task for kids. Only the strongest of the village are allowed to fight the Tailed Beast " my father answered.
" This is bullshit dad and you know it ! " i shouted.
" You're a Shinobi and your life expectancy depends on your own abilities but my dear Kurenai you're also a woman . I can't afford you to die before you leave behind a grandchild so you can pass the will of fire to them ! Promise me at least that" my father replied as he rushed to battle.
Present day
3rd person pov
" My dad died that day, and now i lost Asuma to those bastards " Kurenai said to Neji as she starts to cry.
" Stay strong Kurenai ! " Neji replied as he hugs her to comfort her.
Meanwhile at Squad 4 campgrounds
Akon, Rin and Hiyosu sense the rising levels of Reiatsu from Konoha.
" This is bad ! " Akon stated.
" Both of the spiritual powers coming from the village each calculate at 5,000,000 RYK " Rin explained to them.
" 5 million ? That's enough to destroy a small city or a small mountain " Hiyosu replied.
" This is a problem, shall i contact the Head Captain ? " Sasakibe asked them.
" Don't worry about it, we got this handled " Tessai answered as he walks up with Kisuke.
" You have a plan ? " Sasakibe asked.
" I'm always a man with a plan ! " Kisuke answered as he goes with Tessai.
" Let's set up the barrier first ! " Kisuke said to Tessai.
" Very well then ! " Tessai replied as charges up his Reiatsu " Kōma Kakuchū (抗魔角柱 Anti-Magic Prism) " Tessai chanted as he forms a prism like barrier protecting the entire campground resembling Danku.
" Bakudō # 92 Kūkan Shīrudo(空間シールド Spatial Shielding ) " Kisuke chanted as a massive green barrier made of spiritual energy engulfs the campground perimeter.
" Demon of the Night .Open the gates of hell , Divine shield of darkness , become my shield and protect me Bakudō # 93 Shadōrerumugētsu (シャドーレルムゲーツShadow Realm Gates)" Tessai chanted as he creates a vortex in the sky that summons a large black gate with a black red aura with the markings similar to the gates of hell.
" That should be enough to keep the campground safe, let's get Ichigo Tessai " Kisuke said to Tessai.
" Very well then ! " Tessai replied as he walks with the shopkeeper to the battleground.
Meanwhile Rangiku, Isane , Izuru, Momo and Nanao are helping with the unpacking of stuff within the campground.
" It's a good thing Tessai and Kisuke set up this barrier " Rangiku said to Izuru.
" Same here ! " Izuru replied.
" Ichigo's power is off the scale ! " Renji said to Izuru.
" This can't be a good sign ! " Nanao stated.
" I know what you mean ! " Rukia replied.
Meanwhile at Midtown Konoha ruins
4 Tails Naruto and Hollow Ichigo clash attacks with each other . Kyuubi Naruto slashes Hollow Ichigo across the chest however the monstrous hollow instantly heals himself and counters with his own slash. Kyuubi Naruto is cut across the chest only to regenerate as well.
" AAAHHWAHHAGGUH ! " Hollow Ichigo roared as it jumps up and goes to do a jump slash on Kyuubi Naruto but the monster dodges the strike.
" ROAGRAGAGAGAGAH ! " Kyuubi Naruto roared as the monster pounds the ground and puts his hands underground.
Hollow Ichigo dodges the first two Chakra arms jumping up into the air . Kyuubi Naruto then uses another Chakra arm from the Chakra arms he already created. Hollow Ichigo cuts that one in half with his Bankai only for Kyuubi Naruto to create 10 more Chakra arms to attack Hollow Ichigo.
"AAHAHAGHAH ! " Hollow Ichigo roared as he swings his sword releasing a Black Getsuga Tenshō which destroys everything within a 1 mile radius and knocks back Kyuubi Naruto 500 feet . Hollow Ichigo then dashes up close and uses his Bankai to cut Kyuubi in half only for another part of Kyuubi to come out and cut Hollow Ichigo across the chest.
" RARRGAH ! " The Kyuubi roared as it watches Hollow Ichigo recover from the wound in it's chest.
" AAHAHAGHAH ! " Hollow Ichigo roared as a large worm like appendage comes out of it's chest and goes to attack Kyuubi Naruto pushing the 4 Tails back 1,000 feet away but the 4 Tails uses it's strength to rip it in half .
" MMUUUAHAGH ! " Kyuubi Naruto countered as it swings it's claws at high speeds creating an 2,000 foot diameter 30,000 foot high tornado that moves at 733.3 feet/sec (500 MPH) hitting Hollow Ichigo.
" ARRRGH ! " Hollow Ichigo shouted as it's pushed back 1 mile northwest of the crater.
Kyuubi Naruto charges right at the Hollow but Hollow Ichigo counters swinging it's sword and the power of the sword swing creates a 3,000 foot semi radius shockwave creating a crescent shape fissure around the area he leveled. Kyuubi Naruto is knocked back into the crater. Hollow Ichigo then comes at Kyuubi Naruto with a fury of sword slashes but Kyuubi Naruto blocks with it's claws.
" MMUUHHAGAGHHA ! " Kyuubi Naruto roared as it creates a shockwave sending rocks flying up into the air and then sends hundreds of rocks flying at Hollow Ichigo.
" AARRGHWAHA ! " Hollow Ichigo countered as it uses a series of highspeed slashes to cut up the rocks.
" ARRRGHHAWAHRAH! " Kyuubi Naruto roared as it shoots 3 small blast of Chakra towards Hollow Ichigo but the Hollow dodges the attack. Each blast creates a massive 3,000 foot radius explosion.
" MMUUAHHGAHA ! " Hollow Ichigo roared back as it fires 5 Bala like blast at Kyuubi Naruto which create the same explosions devastating the area around them.
Meanwhile outside of Konoha General Hospital
Yamato and the others feel the force of the explosions being produced by the two powerful creatures.
" This is ridiculous, these two are producing so much destructive force that it's impossible to even get close to them " Yamato said to the team.
" Things are getting worse by the second ! " Ino stated.
" How are we going to stop this madness ? " Shizune asked.
" I don't know if we can ! " Yamato answered.
" Fighting one Tailed Beast is hard enough but two at the same time is a nightmare " Shikaku stated.
" What can we do about it ? " Shikamaru questioned.
" Pray Tsunade gets here on time ! " Yamato answered as he strengthens the barrier as more Chakra waves hit them.
Meanwhile 20 Miles south of Konoha
Tsunade is riding on the giant frog with Shima and Fukasaku .
" Can't this thing go any faster ? " Tsunade impatiently shouted.
" This is the fastest giant toad in Mount Myōboku. Ashihasen moves at 1,760 ft/sec (1,200 MPH) despite being 50 feet high " Fukasaku explained to Tsunade.
" Be patient Tsunade, we should be at the village within a minute " Shima said to her calmly her down.
" We don't have that time , the longer a Tailed Beast fights, the stronger and harder to control . If they become full Tailed Beasts, Konoha would cease to exist entirely " Tsunade said to the toads as they rush to Konoha.
Meanwhile at Squad 4 campgrounds
Byakuya senses the malevolent spiritual power as he is packing stuff up with Hitsugaya and Momo.
" This Reiatsu, it's so violent and chaotic ! " Hitsugaya said to Byakuya.
" I know that feeling , it's the aura of the 4 Tails . I can't forget how powerful that monster was. I was paralyzed in fear just by malevolent surge of Chakra. I almost died in that battle , none of my Bankai attacks had any effect on it . It seems like it's been deployed into the battlefield again " Byakuya explained to them.
" Do we even stand a chance against something like that ? " Momo asked.
" At this point, no. Only Kisuke and Tessai can protect us from the Beast " Hitsugaya answered.
Meanwhile at Midtown Konoha ruins
4 Tails Naruto and Hollow Ichigo clash attacks with each other . Kyuubi Naruto smashes the ground creating a massive 100 foot high wave of earth extending 1 mile in area blinding Hollow Ichigo.
" AARRUGHWH ! " Hollow Ichigo growled as it struggles to find Kyuubi Naruto only to see 5 Chakra arms come at him.
" MUUAHGAHRAGH ! " Kyuubi Naruto roared as it seems to grab Hollow Ichigo but Hollow Ichigo creates an Reiatsu barrier destroying the Chakra arms and creating an explosive wave leveling everything within an 1 mile radius.
Hollow Ichigo and Kyuubi Naruto clash attacks again and attack each other with powerful slashes and strikes. Kyuubi Naruto stops the clash and charges up a ball of Chakra around it's mouth.
" AAWWRRGGGH ! " Hollow Ichigo shouted as he charges up a Cero from both hands.
Both attacks collide creating a massive 2 mile radius explosion.
Meanwhile outside of Konoha General Hospital
Yamato and the others feel the force of the explosions being produced by the two powerful creatures.
" This is ridiculous, this is unlike anything i have ever seen before " Yamato said to the team.
" I'm scared ! " Ino stated.
" How can anything produce this much power ? " Shizune asked.
" This is the power everyone fears, the dreaded Tailed Beast powers " Yamato answered.
Meanwhile at the South Gate
Kisuke and Tessai see the explosion from a distance.
" This is bad, it seems Ichigo has regressed into a Hollow " Kisuke said to Tessai.
" Still, there's no way he can last much longer against the Nine Tails. Hollowfication has limited power compared to a Tailed Beast " Tessai stated.
" You have a point, it's rare that they could have another form outside their full Hollow form ! " Kisuke replied.
Meanwhile at Midtown Konoha ruins
The smoke clears up to reveal that Naruto has grown another tail and his power has increased greatly .
" RRWAAHAHAHHAHAH ! " Kyuubi Naruto roared as it dashes at Hollow Ichigo and slashes the Hollow twice across the chest.
" AGGGHHHRAHWAH ! " Hollow Ichigo screamed in pan as it goes to attack Kyuubi Naruto with it's Bankai but the Nine Tails catches it's sword with it's bare hand and rips of Hollow Ichigo's right arm.
" MUUAHHAGRAGH ! " Kyuubi Naruto shouted as it sends out a Chakra arm at Hollow Ichigo but Hollow Ichigo dodges the strike.
Kyuubi Naruto sends out 10 Chakra arms but Hollow Ichigo manages dodges the first two Chakra arms jumping up into the air but is punched down by the remaining eight . Kyuubi Naruto then uses another Chakra arm to punch Hollow Ichigo so badly that it bleeds however it gets back up and heals it's wounds.
" AAHAHAGHAH ! " Hollow Ichigo roared as he swings his sword releasing a Black Getsuga Tenshō which destroys everything within a 1 mile radius but Kyuubi Naruto isn't even fazed . Hollow Ichigo is then cut across the chest.
" RARRGAH ! " The Kyuubi roared as it watches Hollow Ichigo recover from the wound . Before Hollow Ichigo can fully recover, Kyuubi Naruto roared as it grows a giant Chakra arm and extends it 1 mile away dragging Hollow Ichigo throwing him through chunks of the ground and then pulls him back closer to him " MUUARRRGHWH !" Kyuubi Naruto roared as it fires a powerful blast of Chakra without charging and it shoots up northward 12 miles north creating a massive 2 mile radius explosion and leaving behind a 100 foot deep, 12 mile long , 300 foot wide fissure .
Hollow Ichigo emerges out of the smoke with long straight hair, reaching down to his waist, and a Hollow hole smaller than his previous one . He's decorated with markings stretching from the hole, across his chest and shoulders. He also has retractable claws on his fingertips and toes, small furry red tufts, two starting from his collarbone and stretching around his neck, and one each on his wrists and ankles, as well as seemingly white skin. He has a different Hollow mask and his face is shaped the same, it covers Ichigo's entire head and its markings are different as it has four spike-shaped marks stretched, two of them stopping by the forehead, and the other two stretching past the eyes and teeth, going past his chin and joining with the marks on his chest. There are also small marks resembling a heart, but with the top and bottom open, extending from the inner corners of his eyes. The mask has two long forward-pointing horns with black stripes extending from their center towards the tips. Hichigo also has no tail and appears to be more human.
" AARRRGHWHHAGH ! " Hollow Ichigo roared sounding more like a lion . Hollow Ichigo then swings his Bankai causally creating a massive 30 foot uplifting of the ground within a 1 mile radius of Hollow Ichigo .
" RRAAWWAGRAH ! " Kyuubi Naruto roared as he fires a Bijuudama from it's mouth towards Hollow Ichigo.
" ARRRRGGHRAWH ! " Hollow Ichigo roared back as he fires a Cero from his horns colliding with the Chakra blast but cancels out the attack creating a 2 mile radius explosion.
Hollow Ichigo then uses Sonído to move at 3,300,000 ft/sec (2,250,000 MPH ) and easily cuts Kyuubi Naruto's right arm off . Hollow Ichigo then uses a powerful sword swing to create a powerful gust leveling everything within a 1 mile radius of Hollow Ichigo and pushes back the Kyuubi as the Kyuubi regrows it's arm.
" RRAAHAHHGH ! " Kyuubi Naruto shouted as it dashes to attack Hollow Ichigo but Hollow Ichigo easily evades the slash and appears behind 5 Tails Naruto.
Kyuubi Naruto is then grabbed by Hollow Ichigo and drags him 1 mile east of the crater .
" GGYYAAHHAHHAHAHAH ! " Hollow Ichigo roared as it lifts up a massive 500 foot diameter chunk of ground and hurls it at Kyuubi Naruto.
" GRRRRRAAAHHAHAHRAH ! " Kyuubi Naruto countered as the monster slashes the rock in half with it's claws only for Hollow Ichigo to appear and cut Kyuubi through it's protective Chakra skin and pushes it back.
" GRYYARAWAR ! " Hollow Ichigo shouted as he swings his sword again pushing Kyuubi Naruto towards the main gate .
" MUUARRRGHWH ! " Kyuubi Naruto roared as it fires a powerful blast of Chakra without charging towards Hollow Ichigo but Hollow Ichigo appears up close and effortlessly stops the 5 Tails Chakra blast one hand and shoves it back into the mouth of Kyuubi Naruto. Hollow Ichigo then cuts the 5th Tails arm off and then shoves Kyuubi Naruto 10 miles from the gate and then jumps on it's skull.
" GRRYAAAHWAH ! " Hollow Ichigo roared as he fires a Cero at Kyuubi Naruto at point Blank range creating a massive explosion that levels everything within a 4 mile radius.
The smoke clears up to reveal Kyuubi is still alive and somewhat unfazed. If anything, it grew another tail with the skeleton of an fox's upper body beginning to form out of the Chakra. The blast left behind a 4,874 foot diameter, 1,330 foot deep crater with the smoke clearing up as 304,800,000 meters^3 of rock were vaporized from the blast . The blast produced 1.21 Megatons of TNT , over 80 times the destructive force of the Hiroshima Bomb . The blast generated the explosive force equivalent to a level 7.2 Earthquake
" RRRAOOARGH ! " Kyuubi Naruto roared as he emerges out of the crater.
" RAAHAHGH! " Hollow Ichigo roared looking confused to see 6 Tails emerged.
" RRAGAHAWARH! " Kyuubi Naruto shouted as he punches Hollow Ichigo in the stomach and send the Hollow flying back into Konoha and into the Hokage Monument with a single Chakra arm punch stretching 23 miles long .
" ARRAGH! " Hollow Ichigo moaned in pain feeling on it's chest. The Hollow hit the monument but the monument took no further damage.
" MUUUGHGRAGHWH ! " Kyuubi Naruto roared as it sharpens it's claws and comes at Hollow Ichigo moving at 3,300,000 ft/sec (2,250,000 MPH ).
Both Hollow Ichigo and Kyuubi Naruto clash blows with each other once again matching each other in power .
Kyuubi Naruto charges right at the Hollow but Hollow Ichigo counters swinging it's sword and the power of the sword swing creates a 3,000 foot semi radius shockwave creating a crescent shape fissure around the area he leveled. Kyuubi Naruto is knocked back into the crater. Hollow Ichigo then comes at Kyuubi Naruto with a fury of sword slashes but Kyuubi Naruto blocks with it's claws.
" MMUUHHAGAGHHA ! " Kyuubi Naruto roared as it creates a shockwave sending rocks flying up into the air and then sends hundreds of rocks flying at Hollow Ichigo then breathe fire on them and sends the rocks flying at the Hollow.
" AARRGHWAHA ! " Hollow Ichigo countered as i he fires a fast Cero from it's horns blowing up the rocks.
"ARRRGHHAWAHRAH ! " Kyuubi Naruto roared as it shoots a rapid fire stream of Chakra blasts moving at 1,980 shoots per minute firing 825 shoots at the Hollow.
" MMUUAHHGAHA ! " Hollow Ichigo roared back as he shields himself with a wave of Reiatsu negating all the blast . Hollow Ichigo swings his sword with both hands and pushes Naruto back into the midtown crater.
" RROAARRGH ! " Kyuubi Naruto chanted as it charges up an Rasengan like ball of energy in it's hands while Hollow Ichigo charges at Naruto.
" GYYYAAAHAHGAHAHA! " Hollow Ichigo roared as it does a two-handed Getsuga Tenshō hitting Naruto in the stomach with the blade.
" RRAGAHAWARH ! " Kyuubi Naruto shouted as he punches Hollow Ichigo with a mass of Chakra which damages the stomach.
The force of both blows push both of them 6.25 miles back . Hollow Ichigo is sent flying back into the Hokage Monument while Kyuubi Naruto is sent flying into the Main Gate.
Meanwhile 10 miles east of Konoha
Tsunade sees the size of the crater left from Hollow Ichigo's point-blank blast .
" Things are really getting bad !" Tsunade said to Katsuyu.
" Indeed, the fighting between the Tailed Beasts caused enough destruction to Konoha to make even shelters ineffective against their power "
" How many tails is Naruto in ? " Tsunade asked Katsuyu.
" 6 ! " Katsuyu answered.
" SIX! This is bad, very bad . Come on, we need to get there as fast as possible " Tsunade shouted.
" Right!" Shima replied as they rush to Konoha.
Meanwhile 2 miles from the South Gate
Kisuke and Tessai head closer to the battle site as they see the clashing of attacks have died down.
" Looks like the fighting has died down " Kisuke said to Tessai.
" But i have a bad feeling that it's far from over " Tessai stated.
" What's going on ? " Kisuke asked.
" It seems they are gathering up their Chakra " Tessai answered.
" No! It can't be, they're still Shinigmai within the village . We got to stop them " Kisuke shouted as he goes to rush over but the wounds on his back open up and he kneels down trying to stand up.
" Kisuke , your wounds . I knew it was too soon to bring you back to the battlefield " Tessai stated.
" Still i must be there to seal the Hollow inside him, i'm the only one who can do that " Kisuke said to Tessai.
" You plan to use that Kidō ? " Tessai asked him.
" Yep, i must use that Kidō. I made it ever since the Vizards originally went on a rampage in their Hollow forms . Only i know this spell " Kisuke answered .
Meanwhile outside of Konoha General Hospital
Yamato stands with the barrier erected as he's standing there in fear,
" What's going on ? " Sakura asked,
" This is bad, Naruto has transformed into the 6th Tailed Beast " Yamato answered.
" 6th Tails ? Do we even stand a chance " Shikaku questioned.
" This is not good at all ! " Shizune replied.
" What is this intense Chakra i'm sensing ? " Sakura asked herself .
" How are we going to contain those beasts ? " Inoichi asked Yamato.
" We need to stay put here until Tsunade arrives " Yamato answered.
Suddenly the teams feel the earth-shaking beneath them .
" This is bad, the earth is starting to shake " Chōji stated as he struggles to move.
" I can't move my body ! " Ino shouted.
" This isn't good ! " Chōza said to his team as he struggles to stand.
" Damn it ! None of us could move ! " Yamato said to himself as he struggles to stand.
" My legs feel heavy ! " Sakura stated as she drops to her knees.
" I know how you feel ! " Shikamaru replied as he struggles to stand but falls to his knee.
" This is Chakra ! It's so heavy that it's weighing down the air around us " Ino stated as she struggles to stand but fall to her knees.
" Chakra that can weigh down the air ? That's madness " Chōji replied as he falls to his knees.
" We're in serious trouble , Yamato check what the hell is going on " Shizune asked Yamato.
" Okay ! " Yamato answered as he checks with his clone.
Meanwhile 1.5 miles from the crater
The Yamato clone struggles to withstand the force created by Kyuubi Naruto and Hollow Ichigo. He notices Kyuubi Naruto and Hollow Ichigo charging up their attacks .
" This can't be happening ! " the Yamato clone shouted in horror as he sees the two beasts charging up their strongest attacks.
At the Main Gate, Kyuubi Naruto is charging up his attack.
" RAWGHAH !" Kyuubi Naruto growled as he stops attacking for a moment and shoots hundreds of bubble like Chakra spheres from it's body.
" GYYAAAHHAHAHAHAH ! " Hollow Ichigo roared as he charges up a massive Cero that grows to be the size of his head and keeps growing.
Both of them are releasing intense amounts of Chakra and Reiatsu across the village which is causing everything around them to smoke up and catch fire.
" This can't be, the Chakra they are generating is so intense that it's burning everything around them " the Yamato clone stated as he starts to burn.
Meanwhile outside of Konoha General Hospital
Yamato stands with the barrier erected as he's standing there in fear.
" What's going on ? " Sakura asked.
" This is bad, we need to take better shelter " Yamato answered.
" What do you mean ? " Shizune asked.
" I got to save everyone quick Water Style: Water Barrier Jutsu " Yamato chanted as he creates a giant barrier protecting everyone from the immense heat as the heat starts the boil the dome.
" Damn, that's a hot wave of Chakra ! " Ino stated.
" It should protect us for now as long as we keep the barrier up ! " Yamato replied.
Meanwhile 3 miles from the South Gate
Kisuke and Tessai head closer to the battle site as they see the clashing of attacks have died down.
" This is bad ! " Kisuke said to Tessai.
" If we don't do something,we are all going to die ! " Tessai stated.
Meanwhile at South Konoha
184 troops are carrying back 225 wounded troops on stretchers from the 4th division when they are all hit by the immense shockwave of Reiatsu and Chakra.
" ARRRGH ! " one of the troops shouted as they fall into the ground face first violently.
" What's happening ? " said one of the guys as they struggle to stand from the wave of Reiatsu.
" We're dying ! " said one of the guys as his skin starts to melt off.
" ARRRGHHH ! " all the men screamed as well as the wounded as they all start to burn away from the intense heat until they all melt into skeletons and then they turn into dust.
Meanwhile at Squad 4 campgrounds
Akon, Rin and Hiyosu sense the rising levels of Reiatsu from Konoha.
" This is bad ! " Akon stated.
" All the unseated officers in the village just vanished from the massive Reiatsu " Rin stated.
" The Hollow like Reiatsus in the village are so extreme that it's killing off weaker spiritual powers below 100 RYK and weighing down anyone below 1,000 RYK to the floor . Those who are Vice Captain level are brought to their knees while Captain level Shinigmai can barely stand " Hiyosu explained to them.
" This isn't good ! " Sasakibe replied.
" Temperatures outside are rising rapidly to 300°F with everything catching on fire " Akon warned everyone.
" Thank goodness Tessai and Kisuke set up this barrier otherwise we would be dead " Sasakibe replied.
" Still even in this protective barrier, we can feel the heat " Hiyosu stated wiping the sweat of his head.
" Indeed , this is far from good ! " Akon replied.
" How high is the Reiatsu output outside ? " Hiyosu asked Rin.
" Each of the Reiatsu's i'm sensing have 25,000,000 RYK " Rin answered terrified to see the Reiatsu output.
" This is bad , they have over 50,000,000 RYK combined . We are in serious trouble " Akon shouted.
" Worse yet is that it still keeps going up ! " Rin stated.
" This isn't good, we need to call the Head Captain here immediately " Sasakibe replied.
Meanwhile Rangiku, Isane , Izuru, Momo and Nanao struggles to withstand the intense heat as the campground goes up to 130°F
" Boy this heat is killing me ! " Rangiku said to Izuru.
" It's not ordinary heat, it's heat generated from Reiatsu " Izuru replied.
" This is bad ! " Momo stated.
" If this continues, we're all going to die ! " Isane replied .
Meanwhile Renji and his friends feel the intense heat themselves.
" What's with this crazy amount of heat ? " Renji asked.
" This is very bad, there's an Reiatsu so powerful that it's creating this heat " Rukia answered.
" It's as if we're in a oven ! " Iba stated.
" Last thing i need today is a sunburn on my bald head " Ikkaku complained.
" I don't need my skin flaky from this heat, especially since i been mauled by insects " Yumichika replied.
" It's hard to believe a Reiatsu this powerful can even exist " Hisagi said to them.
" We'll be lucky to escape here alive ! " Ibiki replied.
Meanwhile the Captains carry more stuff into the Senkaimon when they sense the heat and are overwhelmed by the heat as well.
" What is this heat ? " Hitsugaya asked.
" It's so intense , i'm having a hard time breathing " Sajin answered feeling the worst out of everyone given he has fur.
" It's feels as hot as the sun ! " Byakuya stated wiping his forehead of sweat.
Meanwhile Yoruichi carries Soifon in her hands as they struggle against the heat.
" This isn't good at all ! " Yoruichi said to Soifon.
" Indeed ! " Soifon replied.
Meanwhile, Uryū and Chad sense the Reiatsu.
" Do you sense it Chad ? " Uryū asked.
" Yes, this is insane ! " Chad answered.
" This Reiatsu ! It doesn't even felt like Reiatsu, it's unlike any Reiatsu i've ever felt before, it's not just the matter of magnitude and strength. It's too dense and heavy to even be called spiritual energy. It feels like the sun is getting closer to us " Uryū explained to Chad .
Meanwhile at Konoha General Hospital
Kakashi and Gai feel the ground shaking earthquake which causes a violent chain reaction that knocks everything and everyone to the ground as well as things heating up.
" No, this can't be happening again ! " Kakashi said to Gai.
" I feel the rumbling too as well as the intense heat " Gai stated.
Meanwhile Neji and Kurenai feel the heat.
" What's this monstrous spiritual power i'm sensing ? " Neji asked.
" This Chakra is so monstrously high , it's bypassing my barrier and heating everything up " Kurenai said Neji as she struggles to stand.
" Kurenai ! " Neji shouted.
" I'm getting drowsy ! " Kurenai stated as she starts to fade away and the barrier starts to disappear.
" This isn't good ! " Neji said to himself.
Meanwhile Hinata, Shino and Kiba are struggling to stand.
" This is madness, at this rate there won't be a Konoha left to protect " Kiba said to his friends as he's down on his knees.
" This can't be the way it ends ! " Shino stated.
" Naruto, what's going on ? " Hinata asked.
Meanwhile Ebisu and teammates feel the shaking inside the building as they see stuff falling down.
" I can't move my body ! " Ebisu shouted as he drops to his knees.
" This isn't good !" Konohamaru stated as he struggles to stand.
" At this rate, we might die ! " Udon stated as he falls down to the floor.
" We're doomed ! " Mogei replied as she falls down to the ground.
" Udon ! Mogei ! " Konohamaru shouted as he remains the only man standing.
" How are you still standing Konohamaru ? " Ebisu asked.
" Because i refuse to give up ! " Konohamaru answered as he stands his ground.
Meanwhile 10 miles east of the Hokage Monument
Danzō rushes over to seal the 6 Tails .
" I must make it in time ! " Danzō said to himself as he rushes towards Naruto.
Meanwhile 10 miles east of Konoha
Tsunade sees the village covered in smoke and feels the Reiatsu ,Chakra clash.
" Shit ! People are already dying ! " Tsunade shouted.
" We lost 237,859 people form the surging Chakra and they haven't even fired the blast yet " Katsuyu stated.
" Blast ? " Tsunade shouted.
" They are going to unleash the Bijuudama in the village " Katsuyu said to Tsunade.
" Damn it , i don't have much time left !" Tsunade stated as she forms handseals.
" Things are really getting bad ! " Tsunade said to Katsuyu.
Konoha
12:35 P.M. Both the 6 Tails Naruto and Second Hollow Form Ichigo are charging up their blast.
" RAWGHAH ! " Kyuubi Naruto growled as he stops attacking for a moment and shoots hundreds of bubble like Chakra spheres from it's body.
" GYAYAYAYAHHHAHAHA ! " Hollow Ichigo roared as it charges up a Cero ball that is now 3 feet in diameter.
" RAWR ! " Kyuubi Naruto roared as all the bubbles condense the Chakra bubbles into a black sphere that grows 3 feet in diameter.
" GYAYAHAHAHAHARAWHARAH ! " Hollow Ichigo roared as it's Cero grows to be 6 feet in diameter.
" RAWHAAHAHAHARAWR ! " Kyuubi Naruto growled as the black sphere grows 6 feet in diameter as well and then it eats the blast.
Meanwhile at the 12th division barracks
Nemu is working a cure to Mayuri's poison when she gets an alert about power levels.
" Bad news master Mayuri, Two Tailed Beasts are within the vicinity of Konoha" Nemu said to Mayuri.
" What ? " Mayuri asked with shock .
" Were currently detecting RYK levels far above a Captain. 50,000,000... 75,000,000 RYK , 100,000,000 RYK. Shit the power combined is 150,000,000 RYK " Nemu stated frightened at what she sees on the screen.
" This is bad, alert the Captain commander immediately. Not even the Shintachio combine could fight off that level of power " Mayuri demanded.
" Yes Captain ! " Nemu replied as she rushes over to Yamamoto.
Back at Konoha
Kyuubi Naruto in 6 Tails stare at Hollow Ichigo in it's second form across the entire village. The 6 Tails stands within the Main Gate ruins while Hollow Ichigo stands at the ruins of the Hokage palace .
" RAGGAHAH ! " the four tailed demon growled as he grows larger and it's belly swells like a balloon and it's mouth opens up.
" GYAYAHAHAHAHAWHAR ! " Hollow Ichigo roared as it fires it's super powered Cero at Kyuubi Naruto.
" ARWAHGAH ! " Kyuubi Naruto roared as the sphere detonates inside the body and the Chakra is fired from the mouth as a powerful beam.
Both beams come right at each other. The blasts then collide at the center of the village within Konoha stadium ruins and then both of them detonate .
1 mile east of the village gate
" Damn it ! Not enough time !" Tsunade shouted as her body glows with purple Chakra.
" Tsunade don't , you'll ... " Katsuyu tries to warn her.
" No choice, must do it ! " Tsunade stated as she is blinded by a flash of light.
September 24 ,2001 12:36 P.M. Konohagakure , Narutoverse
The blasts connect with each other directly as they shoot up into the sky as the explosion levels everything within a 30 mile radius . The explosion sends all the debris flying from the village everywhere throwing everything around the village. The Konoha General Hospital, the last remaining building is obliterated by the explosion and Yamato's wooden wall is completely destroyed as the building is sucked upwards shattering into bits .
The explosion rips apart the ground within the village . Some of the villagers melt and burn violently under the intense blast that penetrated the underground shelters. Some people are being violently thrown through rocks and debris and others are being hit by flying debris.
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 red light ? " Izuru asked .
" What's this massive force of Reiatsu ? It's unlike anything we witness " Isane stated while struggling to see .
" What's going on ? " Kiyone shouted struggling to see past the bright light.
Meanwhile Akon, Rin and Hiyosu as well as Uryū and Chad are hit by the blinding red light from a distance.
" What's with this crazy red light ? " Akon shouted.
" This is Reiatsu ! " Uryū answered.
" The light coming from that blast is even brighter than the sun " Chad stated.
" What's going on ? " Renji asked everyone.
" My eyes, my beautiful eyes ! " 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.
Suddenly everyone notices the barriers protecting the campground are breaking.
" Shit ! This isn't good ! " Hitsugaya stated.
" The explosion is too powerful for the barrier !" Byakuya shouted.
" We're fucked ! " Sajin stated.
Meanwhile Yoruichi and Soifon notice the barriers shattering.
" I guess this is the end isn't it Yoruichi ? " Soifon asked Yoruichi.
" I guess it is my little bee ! " Yoruichi replied as they hold each other in their arms as they are engulfed in the red light as well as the entire campground.
Meanwhile 70 miles away in Tanzaku Quarters
The blast can be seen from the village as a massive 10 mile diameter beam shooting into the sky brightens up the sky. Roof tiles fall and collapse and all the windows within the town shatter from the explosion. Buildings are hit by flying rocks that shatter windows and break down poorly reinforced buildings such as shacks and huts and knock down doors.
" What's with that massive explosion ? " the mayor asked.
" I don't know ! " the assistant replied as the town is hit by the dust wave which engulfs all the buildings but the buildings only take light damage from the blast.
Meanwhile at Hinokoku Shihon ( 火の国の資本 Fire Country Capital )'
200 miles southeast from Konoha. The Fire Daimyō and his wife Madam Shijimi are within their mansion with his wife hugging the cat when they suddenly hear a loud bang which then causes all the windows in the house to shatter .
" Shit, we are under attack ! " the old Daimyo shouted as he takes cover in the sofa with his wife.
" Who's attacking us ? " Shijimi asked.
" I don't know, i need to call for help " Daimyō answered as he goes to pick up the phone " Hello, is anyone available from Konoha?I think someone is after my life " the king asked but he gets no answer.
" What's going on ? " Shijimi asked.
" There's no answer from Konoha ! " the Daimyō answered.
One of the guards rush to go inform the Daimyō about what's going on .
" Come quick ! " said the guard.
" Okay ! " the Daimyō replied as he rushes outside only to see the skies of konoha from a distance has a laser beam coming from the village.
" Konoha has been hit hard ! " the guard stated.
" It can't be, no it's not possible . Konoha, the greatest military power in the world, is gone " the Daimyō stated as he watches the bright beam of light.
Meanwhile within Orochimaru's hideout
Orochimaru is sparring with Sasuke when he hears a powerful explosion sound from a distance.
" An explosion ? " Orochimaru asked.
" Do you think someone is within the campground ? " Sasuke questioned.
" There's no way they could of found us , must be those pesky Shinigmai trying to kill me again , Kabuto do you sense any intruders ? " Orochimaru asked.
" Nope, that sound must of been an active volcano erupting or a thunderstorm . I don't sense a Chakra within miles of here then again we're 400 miles from the Hidden Leaf Village " Kabuto answered.
" Ah , Konoha. Boy do i wish that fucking city just burn to the ground already, hopefully that explosion sound was Konoha being hit by the 9 Tails again but this time it's gone for good " Orochimaru stated.
" Highly unlikely , Naruto is closely guarded by Jiraiya and Tsunade, the legendary Sannin. Taking them on is impossible together " Kabuto replied.
" I know, it's just wishful thinking ! " Orochimaru responded.
" Are we going to sit here and talk or are we going to train ? " Sasuke impatiently demanded.
" Fine then, let's train ! " Orochimaru answered as he pulls out his sword.
Meanwhile at Sunagakure
Temari is busy having lunch with Kankurō thinking about Gaara with both of them depressed.
" I can't believe that our brother has been captured " Temari said to Kankurō.
" Don't worry , he'll be fine ! " Kankurō replied.
" What if he doesn't ? What if he's killed off ? I can never forgive myself for failing to protect him " Temari questioned only to hear a very loud explosion outside.
" What was that ? " Kankurō asked.
" It sounded like a huge explosion ! " Temari answered as she goes to drink from a cup but her cup cracks " This isn't good ! "
" Indeed, i have a very bad feeling about this ! " Kankurō replied.
Temari and Kankurō then look at the sky and see a red light from a distance.
" What the hell is that ? " Temari asked.
" Don't know but one thing's for sure, i'm glad it didn't hit us " Kankurō replied.
Meanwhile at Kumogakure
800 miles northeast of Konoha , A is busy exercising with weights in his gym when he hears a loud explosion.
" What the hell was that ? For a second it sounded like Killer Bee used Bijuudama " A said to himself as he looks outside to meet Darui and C.
" Did you hear that explosion ? " Darui asked A.
" Are you training too hard again ? " C questioned.
" Wasn't me this time, it must be those Akatsuki bastards who kidnapped B. I'll get B back and crush them " A shouted as he punches the wall.
Meanwhile at Iwagakure
Ōnoki is busy training in the middle of a canyon like area lifting several 20 foot rocks with his mind when he hears a thunderous explosion which causes him to get shocked and destroy the rocks due to a brief loss in control.
" What the hell was that loud explosion ? " Ōnoki said to himself as he looks around him.
Meanwhile 200 miles northeast of Konoha
Omoi, Samui and Karui see the massive red light from a distance and hear the explosion.
" What the hell is going on ? " Samui asked .
" That's one hell of a sonic boom ! " Omoi stated.
" My eardrums are hurting ! " Karui replied.
12:37 P.M. Konohagakure , Narutoverse
A massive 50 mile high , 20 mile diameter mushroom cloud looms over the ruins of Konoha as the blast dies down. Konoha is now nothing more but ruins. Konoha is now within a massive 10 mile diameter , 3 mile deep crater extending from 1 mile east from the Hokage's palace ruins to 1 mile west of the main gate. 80% of the entire city is now below the crater. The size of the explosion is the equivalent to 200 megatons, 4 times the power of the Tsar Bomba and the equivalent to the 1883 eruption of Krakatoa. The explosion obliterated every tree within a 30 mile radius and the destruction fuses with the craters and ruins left within the battle of the Shintachio.
The only thing remaining to recognize the Hidden Leaf Village is the Hokage monument which endured the blast . The smoke clears up to reveal that almost everyone surviving has been covered by Katsuyu and shielded from the explosion. Yamato, and Sakura are the first to emerge from the ruins . They are all 2 miles from ground zero where the explosion hit , 3 miles deep below the earth .
" It can't be ! " Yamato stated as he is shocked to see what is left of Konoha.
" How could this happened ? " Sakura asked with tears forming around her eyes.
" How did we survive this blast ? " Shikamaru asked when he sees Tsunade's slugs on him.
" Tsunade used the last of her Chakra to have us shield the civilians from the explosion " Katsuyu answered.
" To think the Hokage could possibly shield us from such a powerful blast like that " Shikaku stated.
" That's why she's Hokage ! " Inoichi replied.
" Those Shinigmai bastards, they blew it all up " Sakura shouted as she starts to cry.
" Damn it, so that was their plan all along ? They won't get away with this " Chōza shouted.
" This is bad, if Tsunade used up all her Chakra. That means she can no longer fight " Shizune stated.
" Fuck! FUCK ! We still have the Six Tails to fight right now, at this point, there's no one left to fight on par with them " Shikamaru shouted.
" He has a point, we're doomed ! " Chōji replied.
Suddenly Tsunade is dropped off by the toads there.
" Lady Tsunade ! " Sakura said to Tsunade as she looks at her forehead.
" She really did use her full power to shield us from the attack " Shizune stated.
" Sorry, i didn't manage to make it in time however the good news is that i was able to drain both the Tailed Beasts Chakras and power them down a bit, Naruto should be at least 4 Tails by now " Tsunade said to them.
" Just 4 Tails ? You couldn't weakened him more ? " Sakura asked.
" No, i had no time to. I used too much of my Chakra shielding everyone from the blast, i barely got started on the sealing process . Still with a combined effort you should be able to seal him now that you have 5 Jōunins helping you out " Tsunade said to Sakura.
" Thanks ! " Sakura replied.
" Sakura.. i need rest , my body has reached it's limits ... Sakura...Shizune...i entrust you two to lead the team" Tsunade said to Sakura and Shizune as she starts to age and her skin turns pale gray and she becomes frail and wrinkling.
" Lady Tsunade ! " Sakura shouted as she hugs her.
" Don't worry, she's not dead. She's just comatose for now , she'll recover in a few days " Shizune stated.
" Still we need to fight the 4 Tails by ourselves , we stand no chance against it " Shikamaru stated.
" We can't just throw in the towel yet guys, we must rescue Naruto. We must use the last of our might to rescue him " Sakura stated.
" But we stand no chance against it ! " Ino replied.
" Maybe not but i'm not going to sit here and wait to die, let's go and stop him " Sakura responded.
" She has a point, we must protect the people of Konoha with our lives ! " Yamato replied as they team stands up and head to confront 4 Tails Naruto.
Meanwhile within the ruins of the General Hospital,Kakashi and Gai emerge out of the rubble .
" We failed ! " Kakashi said to Gai.
" We couldn't stop them from destroying Konoha ! " Gai replied.
" Don't blame yourselves, at least most of the villagers have survived the attack " Katsuyu stated.
" Yeah but the village itself is beyond recognition ! " Kakashi replied as he looks around to see the crater.
Neji emerges out with Tenten in his hands , Tenten however has been fully healed but is still out of Chakra.
" Tenten ! You're healed ! " Neji asked her shocked to see her healed.
" I am ! I was afraid i would be stuck in graphs for a few days ! " Tenten replied.
" I don't think you need to worry about it though, looks like Konoha lost this battle big time " Neji stated in a depressed tone.
" I can't believe so much was leveled in this attack ! " Tenten replied with tears in her eyes.
" Be glad Tsunade managed to use her Chakra Transfer Jutsu to heal all the villagers who were caught in the blast and shield those from the blast or you would be dead by now " Katsuyu stated.
" How do you endure that blast ? " Neji asked.
" My body is resistant to any forms of damage " Katsuyu answered as she stays on Neji.
Meanwhile Kiba, Shino and Hinata emerge from the ruins with Katsuyu on their bodies acting as a shield.
" That was a close call ! " Kiba stated.
" Indeed ,had not for Katsuyu, we would of all died !" Shino replied.
" Looks like my team survived the assault after all " Kurenai said to her team emerging from Katsuyu.
" Good thing none of us were injured ! " Hinata stated.
" Those bastards are going to pay for this ! " Tsume shouted as she emerges out of the dirt with Katsuyu covering her and her dog Kuromaru.
" Mother ! " Kiba said hugging her " Is my sister alive too ? " Kiba asked.
" I'm right here knucklehead " Hana answered as she emerges with her 3 dogs protected by Katsuyu.
" This is one hell of a mess ! " Kiba stated as he looks around.
" Everything the First Hokage ever built, gone in a blink of an eye ! " Tsume replied.
Meanwhile Kisuke and Tessai stand with a special barrier around them which disappears with Tessai notably exhausted.
" Thanks for the save again Tessai ! " Kisuke said to him.
" Your welcome, using my Bankai special ability twice is taxing ! " Tessai replied.
" How long you need to use it again ? " Kisuke asked Tessai.
" Around 5 to 10 minutes at most ! " Tessai answered.
" It seems Ichigo has powered down, his RYK is only 5,000,000 RYK instead of 25,000,000 RYK " Kisuke stated
" Either his blast took a chunk of his energy or the enemy must of used a sealing Jutsu but failed to complete it " Tessai said to Kisuke.
" Either way, it should be easier for us to fight him, especially with my weakened state " Kisuke replied as they walk to fight Ichigo.
" Still we can use some backup, just in case things get too intense " Tessai said to Kisuke.
" Very well then ! " Kisuke replied as he prepares to do a spell " Bakudō #77. Tenteikūra (天挺空羅, Heavenly Rickshaws in Silken Air ) " Kisuke chanted as he goes to get backup .
Meanwhile Danzō emerges from the roots on the ground revealing he dug underground using Wood Style Jutsu to faze through the ground.
" Had not for my Wood Style Jutsu, i would of been caught by the blast. Thank Goodness i used the power of the first to go into the ground and avoid all damage ,still it's going to take a while for me to gain enough Chakra to seal the Nine Tails " Danzō said to himself as he stands exhausted of his Chakra.
Meanwhile at Squad 4 campgrounds
Rangiku , Izuru and Isane get up to see that the campground is still intact and no one has died.
" We survived ! " Rangiku shouted .
" What the hell ? How is that even possible ? " Izuru asked .
" Look up there! " Isane stated as they see the campground protected by an orange barrier.
" What's going on ? " Kiyone asked as she stares at the barrier.
Everyone then sees the barrier disappear and see two fairies come back at Orihime.
" Orihime, you saved us ! " Uryū stated.
" Thank you Orihime ! " Chad said to Orihime .
" Your welcome ! " Orihime replied.
" Incredible, Orihime's shield was even stronger than a combined blast of Bakudō # 81, Bakudō #92 and Bakudō #93 combined . What kind of power does Orihime process " Yoruichi said to herself.
" She's one hell of a human , glad she's on our side " Soifon said to Yoruichi.
" Let's get going my little bee ! " Yoruichi said to Soifon as she goes with Soifon through the Senkaimon.
Kisuke meanwhile manages to reach the campground.
" We need assistance from all Bankai wielding Shinigmai within the campground. We need to fight off Hollow Ichigo and can't do it alone in our condition " Kisuke said to them.
" Looks like we're needed ! " Hitsugaya said to them.
" But we barely have the energy to fight them " Byakuya stated.
" And if you guys are wondering whether you have enough energy, there are some food pills that would temporarily give you all your Reiatsu back " Kisuke stated.
" Very well then ! " Sajin replied .
" Let me join you guys !" Renji stated.
" Same here ! " Rukia said to Renji.
" Count us in ! " Chad said to the rest.
" Sam here ! " Uryū replied.
" Let me come too , i can heal you guys in case you're hurt " Orihime stated.
" Fine, just don't get yourself killed ! " Hitsugaya replied.
" Captain, are you going to be okay ? " Rangiku asked.
" I'll be fine, just get everyone back to the Soul Society safely , we have a mess on our hands to deal with " Hitsugaya answered.
" Right! It's clear we don't stand a chance against whatever the hell you guys are up against " Rangiku stated.
" Rangiku, be careful ! " Hitsugaya said to Rangiku.
" Right ! " Rangiku replied as she leaves with the others to the Soul Society while the remaining Captains go to help Kisuke out.
Meanwhile at Yamamoto's office
Yamamoto sees Nemu rush to his office to tell him the news.
" Captain Commander , we have a problem " Nemu said to Yamamoto .
"What is it Nemu ? " Yamamoto asked.
" We got a serious problem, we have two power readings that are 25,000,000 RYK " Nemu explained to Yamamoto.
" This is bad! I guess i have no choice but to come to battle myself however i fear that i might destroy the village we are trying to take over " Yamamoto stated.
" About that Captain Commander , Konohagakure was wiped out by a 200 megaton blast created by Hollow Ichigo and the Nine Tails . The entire population was wiped out " Nemu said to Yamamoto.
" Is that so ? I guess we failed after all. How bad is the damage ? " Yamamoto asked Nemu.
" Damage scale level is incomprehensible . Blast crater is 16 km in diameter and 4.8 km deep, area caught in the explosion is 900 square miles. Probably of survivors...0% " Nemu explained to Yamamoto.
" I see, there's no way anyone could survive that level of destruction. No bomb shelter is deep enough to withstand an explosion of that scale " Yamamoto stated.
" Fortunately, no one in the campground has been hurt from the blast despite being 2 miles from the city limits thanks to the efforts of Orihime, Kisuke and Tessai that protected the injured within the barrier however we lost 225 Shinigmai within the process who were still within the village during the explosion" Nemu explained to Yamamoto.
" 225, that means we only have 4,500 troops left . This is inconceivable, the Shinobi wiped out 1/4 of our military might in a single day within a single battle and now the Substitute Shinigami threatens the balance of both worlds as well as the 9 Tails. I was foolish not to come into the battlefield myself " Yamamoto stated as he gets up and walks out of the room.
" So you're going to capture the 9 Tails and stop Ichigo's rampage ? " Nemu asked him.
" Who else can deal with two creatures of that much power than the strongest Shinigmai in the Soul Society " Yamamoto replied as he walks out of the room.
Meanwhile at the Main Gate
4 Tails Naruto is within the main gate looking for Ichigo in the smoke. Sakura ,Yamato ,Shizune, Chōji, Chōza, Shikamaru,Shikaku, Ino and Inoichi arrive at the scene to see Naruto looking around.
" He really has reverted to the 4 Tails " Yamato said to the team.
" Thanks to Tsunade, you guys can now fight him " Katsuyu replied.
" Still how would people like me, Chōji and Chōza be able to slow him down ? That Chakra shroud around him is toxic and burns anyone who touches it " Sakura questioned.
" Allow me to help you ! " Katsuyu answered as she attaches herself to Sakura's hands as well as Chōza and Chōji's.
" What's this ? " Chōji asked.
" Is this the Slug queens gloves ? " Chōza questioned.
" Yep, Tsunade can briefly lend parts of her Katsuyu Taisenāmā(カツユ大戦アーマー Slug Queen War Armor ) to help her comrades, it should be enough for you guys to withstand the aura of the Four Tails " Katsuyu explained to her friends.
" This is awesome ! " Shikamaru stated as Katsuyu puts a small clone of herself on his shoulder.
" How strong is your durability Katsuyu ? " Ino asked.
" 4 Tails is nothing now that Tsunade used the special food pill to briefly give her maximum Chakra . With the combined energy we have, i can withstand up to the eight-tailed form of the Kyuubi. However given how much energy has been dispersed and divided among the villagers , you only have around 5 to 10 minutes to take him down before my defense gives up on you " Katsuyu explained to the team.
" That's great, that would mean the 4 Tails would be nothing to us " Chōji cheerfully stated.
" Don't get arrogant, the most i can increase is your defense for now . You're attack power remains the same , only those who signed a summoning contract could access my powers " Katsuyu explained to them.
" Damn it ! " Yamato replied.
" Does that mean i could use your powers ? " Sakura asked.
" Sure , you signed the same contract Tsunade did when she was your age long ago " Katsuyu stated as she thinks back to when Sakura signed the contract seal.
4 months ago
Katsuyu's pov
You and Tsunade were training in the Third Training Ground when she decided to teach you her special Summoning Jutsu .
" It's important i teach you this Jutsu in case it comes a time that i might pass on from this world or i'm incapable of fighting or defending this village . It would also help you come one step closer to rivalling the power of Naruto and Sasuke " Tsunade said to you.
" I see ,so if i learn to summon this Jutsu, i can be on par with Naruto and Sasuke ? " you asked her.
"Mostly however it's not easy mastering a summoning of this level . Katsuyu's abilities are mainly defensive and rely on the users level of Chakra control . It would probably take you years of training to fully utilize the true extent of Katsuyu's powers but the most powerful ability from Katsuyu is her Katsuyu Taisenāmā(カツユ大戦アーマー Slug Queen War Armor )" Tsunade explained to you.
" Katsuyu what? " you asked.
" Katsuyu Taisenāmā(カツユ大戦アーマー Slug Queen War Armor ) helps sustain my Chakra level to a fine controlled state and uses the boneless body of Katsuyu to absorb any and all damage aimed at me, it also increases my raw power and durability on the factor of 10. You aren't ready for this level of Jutsu yet but once you are, you're power would be one step closer to surpassing my own " Tsunade explained to you.

" So you're lending me your power ? " Sakura asked.
" Only a small fraction compared to what i lend Tsunade before but due to the fact you have yet to fully sync our Chakra's together, i can't use my special techniques on your command however the strength and power increase should be enough to fight off the Tailed Beast for now " Katsuyu answered.
" Very well then , i knew Tsunade wouldn't let me down at all ! " Sakura replied as she gets covered by Katsuyu's slug armor.
" Tsunade has lent the last of her powers to you Sakura, don't disappoint her " Shizune stated.
" Very well then ! " Sakura replied as she emerges in her slug armor form without the mouth guard.
" Unreal, Sakura you look awesome ! " Ino stated.
" Thanks , now let's not waste any time and take on this Tailed Demon" Sakura replied.
" Incredible, her Chakra level is even higher than a Jōunin . Her power level is between a Jōunin and a Kage, essentially, she's as powerful as Kakashi or Gai " Yamato said to himself as he looks at her power.
" So Yamato, what to do now ? " Shikaku asked.
" Alright guys, here's the plan. Ino, Inoichi , the both of you would stay long-range and use telekinesis and your psionic blasts to fight off the Tailed Beast, Shikaku and Shikamaru you would both use mid range shadow based attacks, Sakura since you're the strongest right now, you would take the direct offensive against him while Chōji and Chōza acts as your support. Once we have the creature weakened from the assault, i'll use my Wood Style Jutsu on him to revert him back to normal " Yamato explained the plan to everyone.
" Very well then ! Let's do this ! " Sakura replied as she is the first one to charge at the Tailed Beast.
Meanwhile at the Hokage's palace
Kisuke and Tessai arrive at the area where they see Hollow Ichigo in his first form looking for Naruto .
" It can't be ! " Kisuke said to Tessai.
" It is, Ichigo has reverted to a Hollow ! " Tessai stated.
" Not reverted, more like evolved into a Hollow. This is very bad , it's just like what happened 95 years ago " Kisuke replied as he thinks back to the past .
95 years ago
3rd Person pov
I worked tirelessly on a cure for the Vizards . One day i thought i had the cure however that only led to something far worse than i can imagine .
All the Vizards were instantly transformed into Hollows . Each Vizard took the form relating to their powers or their personality from their Hollow forms. Shinji was a sphinx like creature, Hiyori was a monkey like creature with a rhino horn, Love took the form of a massive ogre, Kensei took the form of his Hollowifed Form he used against his comrades , Lisa took the form of a dragonfly creature, Rose took the form of an eagle like monster , Mashiro took the form of an hornet, and Hachigen took the form of an elephant creature .
" What's going on ? " i asked.
" Looks like your cure only made things far worse " Yoruichi scolded .
" This can't be good ! " Tessai stated as the Hollowfied Vizards came right at us.
We fought the monsters off for a while. Each of them were as powerful as they were in Shikai form without releasing their swords, the Vizard Captains were even more of a problem given how strong they have become after Hollowfication . The lieutenant Hollows were each as strong as an normal Captain with Bankai and the Vizard Captains were as powerful as an Shintachio in shikai with neither creatures even releasing their swords.
Had not for Yoruichi and Tessai, i would've died and the Hollows would of rampaged across Japan and eventually be killed off by the Gotei 13. Tessai and i had to teleport them as far away from the city as much as possible and we fought within an abandoned Island 300 miles east off the coast of Tokyo. The entire 400 square mile island was destroyed in the fight. We were forced to release our Bankai to win the fight.

" Given how much power the Hollowfied Vizards had without releasing their Zanpakutōs, it's no surprise that Ichigo in his Hollowfied Form with Bankai was able destroy an entire city, especially with the combined power of him and the 9 Tailed Fox " Tessai stated.
" We must take advantage that it's weakened and seal him before he gains back it's full power " Kisuke said to Tessai .
" Very well then ! " Tessai replied as he then sees the Captains arrive there in time as well as Orihime, Uryū, Chad, Renji and Rukia.
" We came as you intended ! " Hitsugaya said to them.
" Looks like the cavalry has arrived ! " Kisuke said to them.
" You gotta be kidding me,that's our foe ? How can we take him on when even you can't do it Hat and Clogs ? " Rukia asked him.
" It's true we can't fight this thing alone but with an combined assault, we can fend it off and buy enough time to seal the Hollow within Ichigo " Kisuke answered.
" So what is the plan ? " Byakuya asked.
" Here's the plan guys , Byakuya and Hitsugaya would strike from a distance with their Bankai as well as Renji while Uryū provides cover with his arrows, Rukia, and Tessai , you'll stick to medium range fighting and Chad and Sajin would stick to close range fighting, Orihime stay by my side and use your shields to protect your teammates from harm while i create a clone to aid you guys . If we play our cards right, we can made it out here alive. I need 5 minutes to set this Kidō up " Kisuke said to the team.
" Very well then you can could on us ! " Rukia replied as she activates her Bankai "Bankai : Shirayuki Shiro Tsukihime( 白雪,姫白月 White Snow, White Moon Princess ) " Rukia chanted as she transforms into her Bankai state.
" What the hell ? How did you, when did you gain this much power ? " Byakuya asked her .
" This is not the time for compliments, we have an enemy to defeat " Rukia said to Byakuya as she clenches her Bankai scythe.
" Let's kick ass Bankai: Hihiō Zabimaru (狒狒王蛇尾丸, Baboon King Snake Tail) " Renji shouted as he goes into his Bankai state.

The fire then forms the shape of a giant man and takes the form of a 330 foot high armored giant wielding a 150 foot long sword while having his katana in his hand.
" Enchant Tenkūshokuin (天空の職員 Staff of the Heavens ) Tessai chanted as his sword transforms into a large staff with a metal finial with two sections, each with three rings, (for a total of six rings), which represent the Six States of Existence - the cycle of samsara, of suffering and reincarnation.
" Awaken Benihime " Kisuke chanted as he releases his Shikai.
" Shun Shun Rikka (盾舜六花, Six Flowers of the Hibiscus Shield) " Orihime chanted in a calm tone as she scatters her hairpins into 6 fairies from her left collar .
" What is it Orihime ? " Shun'ō asked her.
" I need you to protect my friends and activate Shiten Kōshun (四天抗盾, Shield of Four Heavens' Resistance) every time my friends are about to be hit by Hollow Ichigo's attacks " Orihime answered.
" Who do we protect ? " Tsubaki asked.
" Hinagiku, you protect Byakuya , Baigon protect Sajin, Ayame protect Rukia, Shun'ō protect Chad, Lilly protect Hitsugaya and Tsubaki protect Renji " Orihime commanded.
" Right ! " They all replied as they go and protect the people assigned to protect.
" What about me ? " Uryū asked.
" Uhh.. sorry, i don't have enough to protect everyone " Orihime answered looking down.
" Don't sweat it Orihime, Uryū's range is the best of all of us, he doesn't need to worry about getting hit as long as the others are here to stop him " Kisuke said to Orihime.
" What about you and Tessai ? " Orihime asked.
" Tessai has this handled , he's a tough guy . As for me, i got Benihime and this Combat Mode Portable Gigal i can control remotely with my mind " Kisuke answered as he makes a clone of himself.
" Combat Gigal ? " Orihime asked.
" It's a Combat Model copy of the original i made that is still in the prototype stages. I made it yesterday in fact, it has the same abilities as me in Shikai form however it's an imperfect model that can't handle my Bankai but it should be enough to stall and hold him off while i make the preparations for this sealing Kidō " Kisuke stated as he sits down and pulls out chalk from his pocket.
" Okay guys we need to give Kisuke at least 5 minutes so he can complete this sealing Kidō. If he messes up even the slightest bit, we are all done for " Tessai said to the team.
" Understood ! " everyone replied as they go to fight Hollow Ichigo.

" And we would go and take over both worlds unopposed ! " Aizen replied as he drinks some tea.

Meanwhile inside Konoha crater
All the remaining 920,141 civilians from the blast and the remaining military personnel emerge from the slugs that shielded them from the worst of the blast.
" Our village has been destroyed ! " one of the civilians shouted.
" Everything we cherished is gone !" another civilian complained.
" It's the fucking Nine Tails fault, if that little bastard wasn't here, we wouldn't lose this village " one of the villagers shouted in anger.
" Curse the Nine Tailed Demon ! " all the people shouted in an angry mob fashion pissed off that the Nine Tails blew up the village.
" After this is done, that bastard Naruto should be locked up " one of the guys shouted as they get into a frenzy.
Meanwhile at the other side of the crater Hinata hears all this and is saddened about what she sees.
" Naruto, it can't be ! What has gotten to you ? What made you do this ? Was the enemy too powerful that you couldn't win without using the Nine Tails ? I got to stop this all " Hinata said to herself as she rushes to aid Naruto but is stopped by Kiba,Shino, Neji and Kurenai .
" Where do you think you're going ? " Neji asked her.
" I'm going to save Naruto ! " Hinata answered.
" Afraid we can't let you do that !" Kurenai stated.
" But why ? He's in trouble, his Tailed Beast ... " Hinata explained to Kurenai only to be cut off by Neji.
" Is the very cause of this mess, there's nothing you can do especially in your condition. You'll only end up killing yourself " Neji shouted.
" I don't care, if i have to fight for the people i care for then so be it . I'll take all of you on if i have to " Hinata replied as she pulls out a kunai.
" Calm down Hinata, you're acting crazy ! " Kiba said to her.
" I don't care! Naruto isn't just a friend to me, he's much more than that " Hinata stated.
" What do you mean ? " Shino asked.
" I ... " Hinata said to Shino as she was about to finish her sentence but is knocked out by a Genjutsu by Kurenai.
" I don't need to explain to your father why his eldest daughter died needlessly in a one sided fight . I also can't forgive myself if an innocent girl like you ever died in the hands of a monster like Naruto " Kurenai said to herself only to throw up from the morning sickness.
" Kurenai ! " Kiba shouted.
" She's feeling morning sickness ! " Shino stated.
" Look for a doctor around here, she needs treatment badly " Neji replied.
Meanwhile at the Main Gate
Team Yamato struggles to bring down Kyuubi Naruto long enough to seal it. Sakura is standing the most chance thanks to Katsuyu briefly lending her powers to the young special Jōunin.
Sakura dodges a claw strike from the 4 Tails. Sakura does a handstand and does 6 spinning kicks to Kyuubi Naruto's face pushing it back a bit while her teammates charge up their Chakra and prepare to use their strongest attacks on the Kyuubi.
" Sakura sure is strong isn't she ? " Shikamaru asked.
" It's because she's borrowing the remaining power from Grandma Tsunade " Ino answered jealous of Sakura.
" Still even without that armor, she has some great fighting skills " Inoichi stated.
" Dad, you're suppose to be parsing me ! " Ino shouted.
" Easy Ino, no need to get competitive !" Inoichi replied.
" Sakura has worked hard to improve her fighting ability. Before she was a weak fighter with no skill whatsoever now she's a force to be reckoned with , Tsunade has raised a fine Kunoichi from Sakura " Chōza stated.
" Still that armor only increases one's power by 10 times, 10 times her own strength alone shouldn't be enough to have her actually holding her own . Could it be that she's gaining her own resolve and getting stronger as she fights ? " Shizune asked.
" Either way, Sakura is a real badass now ! " Chōji replied.
" She's buying us enough time to use our ultimate Jutsus, let's not disappoint her " Yamato said to the team.
" Right ! "everyone else replied as they charge up their Chakra.
Back at the fighting area. Kyuubi Naruto pushes back Sakura with his claw but Sakura takes no damage.
" I can't believe how strong you are Sakura " Katsuyu said to Sakura.
" What do you mean ? " Sakura asked.
" Did you always have this much hidden power ? " Katsuyu asked.
" I thought all this time it was the suit that was doing that " Sakura answered.
" My true power is not just to increase one's strength and power but to draw out hidden strength through resolve . Your resolve is increasing this power i'm lending you by 500% " Katsuyu explained to Sakura.
" I see, i never thought i had this much power in me. It feels awesome " Sakura replied as she sees the Kyuubi charge at her but she elbows it in the stomach and pushes it back 300 feet.
Kyuubi Naruto uses 5 Chakra arms to lunge at Sakura but Sakura takes out her Tanto and cuts them and cuts the Kyuubi lightly across the shoulder.
" She managed to cut him ! " Shikamaru stated.
" How much stronger is she getting from that form of hers ? " Ino shouted.
Kyuubi Naruto easily heals from the wound and charges at Sakura but Sakura punches him with an intense punch that releases green flames sending the Kyuubi flying 500 feet away. Sakura is exhausted of her Chakra.
" What was that attack just now ? When did i shoot green flames from me " Sakura asked as her right hand is covered with green flames.
Kyuubi Naruto regenerates from the light burns on it's body and gets pissed off.
" RAWWGGHG ! " Kyuubi Naruto roared as it charges up a full power Bijuudama.
" Watch out ! " Yamato shouted as the attack aims at Sakura.
" Sakura, i'm going to lend you all my power at once to this next attack. Use it wisely " Katsuyu said to Sakura.
" Got it ! " Sakura replied as her green aura mixes with Katsuyu's light purple aura .
" RAWWAARAH ! " Kyuubi Naruto shouted as he's about to fire the attack.
" Ōkarakuen ( 桜花楽園 Cherry Blossom Paradise )" Sakura chanted as her arms glow with pink Chakra and she charges through the Kyuubi blast using the full strength of her armor and then connects with a powerful punch to Kyuubi that smashes the ground with a two-fisted smash and creates a massive 4,000 foot explosion and causing the Bijuudama to detonate in it's mouth.
The explosion blinds everything within the path of the other ninjas.
" Damn, what power ! " Yamato shouted.
" Impossible,she's that strong with Katsuyu armor. She's about 1/10ths Tsunade's full power " Shizune stated.
The smoke clears up to reveal that Kyuubi Naruto is bleeding from the mouth and is stun by the punch. Sakura gets her distance and the armor she's wearing gives in and dispels from her body with Sakura severely exhausted.
" I've reached my limit ! " Sakura stated as she drops to the ground.
" Good going Sakura, time to make our move " Yamato stated as everyone goes for an all out assault.
" Dokuton:Hitasa Sekkai Dokujin (毒遁, 浸さ切開毒刃 Poison Style:Immersed Poison Dissection Blade) " Shizune chanted as she glows her arm with purple Chakra leaking deadly poison everywhere and forms a purple Chakra blade on her right hand hitting the Kyuubi in the open sores in it's mouth paralyzing the creature with the poison.
" ARRGH ! " Kyuubi Naruto roared as it struggles to recover. Shizune heals her badly burned right arm.
" Don't give it a chance to recover ,attack with everything you got " Yamato shouted.
" Kagenoana (影の坑Shadow Pit ) " Shikaku chanted as he traps Kyuubi Naruto within a 100 foot diameter shadow circle.

" Magen: Chō Shinka (魔幻・蝶進化Demonic Illusion: Butterfly Evolution )" Ino chanted as she creates an illusion in which countless butterflies surround the Kyuubi. In the illusion , Ino sinks Kyuubi Naruto into the ground. "Magen: Jubaku Satsu (魔幻・樹縛殺 Demonic Illusion: Tree Binding Death ) " Ino chanted as she traps Kyuubi Naruto inside a illusion tree.
Kyuubi Naruto struggles to break out of the Jutsus binding him down while poisoned.

" Kageshoji Bakuhatsu Bakudaname (影の所持爆発紙の爆弾の雨 Shadow Possession Exploding Paper Bomb Rain ) " Shikamaru chanted as he throws a scroll 300 feet in the air releasing 500 exploding kunai with wire strings "Kageyose (影寄せShadow Pull Jutsu ) " Shikamaru chanted as he covers the Kyuubi with paper bombs" Kage Shoji Shūban(影所持終盤Shadow Possession Endgame) " Shikamaru said to Uryū as he drops his lighter creating a 1,500 radius explosion.
" RAAWAGHR ! " Kyuubi Naruto roared as it emerges without a single injury despite being pinned down.
" You're not getting away this time ! " Shikaku shouted.
" Everyone ready to do it ? " Inoichi asked.
" It's been a while since we did this but let's do this " Chōza replied.
" Ino-Shika-Cho :Nentō Kage Kazan Kōgeki ( 念頭影火山影撃 Mind Shadow Volcano Strike) " Inoichi, Shikaku and Chōza chanted as Shikaku compress the hill downward squeezing the rocks and debris down with his shadows then uses a handsign to compress all the debris down to a 10 foot diameter ball,Chōza gains butterfly wings on his back and blue Chakra flames around his staff. They all strike the Kyuubi creating a 1 mile radius explosion.
Despite being hit by all those attacks, Kyuubi Naruto only has a few scratches however it's stunned from the attacks.
" Incredible, it took all that damage only to have a few starches " Shikamaru stated amazed at what he sees.
" No time to worry about that, let's seal this thing quickly Mokuton: Jubaku Eisō (木遁・樹縛栄葬Wood Style: Tree Bind Eternal Burial )" Yamato chanted as he creates a tree around Kyuubi Naruto to bind him down.
" We got him ! " Ino cheerfully shouted.
" Not yet ! Hokage-Shiki Jijun Jutsu - Kakuan Nitten Suishu ( 火影式耳順術 廓庵入鄽垂手 Hokage Style Elder Jutsu: Tenth Edict On Enlightenment) " Yamato chanted as he creates ten wooden pillars while producing the seal "sit" (座) on his palm. The wooden tendrils bind down Naruto.
" We did it ! " Sakura cheerfully stated while lying on the floor.
" Now time for the finish ! " Yamato shouted as he hits Naruto with his palm with the seal "sit" (座) and a blue string of Chakra comes out of it.

" Allow me to lend you some of my powers for a bit " Sode no Shirayuki said to Rukia.
" But i'm in my Bankai, this is my limit ! " Rukia stated.

Rukia stands back up with her Reiatsu leaking everywhere around her . Rukia's eyes glow white and her hair becomes snow-white for a second.

"You would need to do the final dance to save your friends " Sode no Shirayuki answered.

Then Kisuke forms a diamond seal with the Kanji suppress( くど )

" Right ! " Chōza replied.
" It's either that or we die ! " Inoichi stated as they all go for their strongest attacks.
" Works for me ! " Shizune replied as they all dash towards Kyuubi Naruto.
" Team Ino-Shika-Cho use :Nentō Kage Kazan Kōgeki ( 念頭影火山影撃 Mind Shadow Volcano Strike) " all three of them shouted as they all go to strike Kyuubi Naruto.
" Dokuton:Hitasa Sekkai Dokujin (毒遁, 浸さ切開毒刃 Poison Style:Immersed Poison Dissection Blade) " Shizune chanted as she goes to strike 6 Tails Naruto.
" RAAAAWWWAGH ! " Kyuubi Naruto roared as he creates an superheated Chakra shockwave to take them all out giving each of them 2nd degree burns and Yamato is pushed back 1 mile away.
" He took all of us out with just his roar ! " Shizune said to herself as she hits a rock head first.
" We're done for ! " Inoichi stated to himself as he hits a fallen tree.
" This village is doomed ! " Chōza thinks to himself as he lands on the ground.
" Nothing can stop the Tailed Beasts now ! " Shikaku replied as he falls into a muddy ditch.
" This is bad, i must try again Hokage-Shiki Jijun Jutsu - Kakuan Nitten Suishu ( 火影式耳順術 廓庵入鄽垂手 Hokage Style Elder Jutsu: Tenth Edict On Enlightenment) " Yamato chanted as he tries to seal the Kyuubi but the Kyuubi shatters the Jutsu.
" ARRAAHAHERRAWARGH ! " Kyuubi Naruto roared as it slashes Yamato across the chest dropping him to the ground.
" Captain Yamato ! " Sakura shouted as she is unable to move as the Kyuubi heads towards her but then the Kesshōseki activates and wraps Kyuubi Naruto in a green light in an attempt to suppress his Tailed Beast powers.
" RRAAHWHWAHGGHAR ! " Kyuubi Naruto roared as it smashes the necklace on it's neck and releases more Reiatsu.
" Impossible, he shattered the First Hokage's necklace . There's no stopping him now " Yamato said to himself as he bleeds out.
" RAWAGAHRH ! " Kyuubi Naruto roared as it goes to decapitate Yamato.
" STOP THIS NARUTO! " Sakura shouted as she gets in the way .
" RAWRRAGH ! " Kyuubi Naruto roared.
" That's enough ! " Sakura said to Naruto as tears come out of her eyes.
" RAWWGGH ! " Kyuubi Naruto roared as it cuts her across the chest and into her left arm knocking her back 50 feet.
" We're all done for! Lady Tsunade, i failed you " Sakura said to herself as the Kyuubi comes to attack her with it's claw.
" Fūton: Kyojin Sōji Dangan ( 風遁・巨人掃除弾丸 Wind Style: Giant Vacuum Bullet )" Danzō chanted as he shoots a powerful blast from his finger pushing back the Kyuubi 400 feet away from Sakura.
" Danzō ? " Sakura asked shocked to see him standing there with his arm bandaged up as well as the right side of his face but he's not wearing his sealing braces.
" Katsuyu ! " Danzō called.
" What are you doing out here ? " Katsuyu asked.
" Give me your remaining Chakra, i plan to stop this thing once and for all " Danzō answered.
" I don't trust you ! " Katsuyu stated.
" This isn't the time for petty politics, that Slug Princess of yours is no longer able to fight and the only one capable of fighting the Kyuubi is me . Unless you want all the survivors dead, lend me enough Chakra to fight it " Danzō explained to Katsuyu.
" Fine ! " Katsuyu replied as she uses her Chakra to restore Danzō's power back to his full power.
" You were of great use to me ! " Danzō stated as he goes to fight the Kyuubi while drawing out his blade from his cane sword.
" RAAGWHAHRAHR ! " Kyuubi Naruto roared.
" I knew this was going to happen , that reckless bimbo Tsunade should of confined you better " Danzō said himself as he does Rat → Snake → Horse → Dog→ Ram →Snake→ Rat → Snake → Horse and Dog handseals and then forms a spiraling tornado in his hands and then compresses it into a ball and swallows the ball of wind and gathers Chakra around him.
" RYAAHAGHA! " Kyuubi Naruto roared as it dashes towards Danzō.
" Fūton: Asshuku Shinkūken (風遁、圧縮真空圏 Wind Style, Compressed Vacuum Sphere ) " Danzō chanted as he fires a massive arrow-like energy blast from his mouth that hits the Kyuubi and pushes Kyuubi Naruto 10 miles east into the 4,874 foot diameter, 1,330 foot deep crater created by Hollow Ichigo. Danzō then goes to pursue the Kyuubi.
Meanwhile at the Hokage palace
Hollow Ichigo in his second Hollow form goes on a rampage cutting down all the Shinigmai it his path.
" Take This ! " Renji shouted only to get cut down by Hollow Ichigo's superfast slash.
" Renji ! " Rukia shouted.
" RRAAHWGH ! " Hollow Ichigo roared as it also cuts Tsubaki in half.
" Tsubaki ! " Orihime shouted as the Hollow then turns and looks at Orihime
" GYAYAYAYAHAHAHAHAH ! " Hollow Ichigo growled as it goes to strike Orihime.
" ORIHIME RUN ! " Uryū shouted .
" I can't move my body ! " Orihime said to herself as the creature goes to stab her but Uryū uses Hirenkyaku to take the hit through the chest shielding Orihime from the attack.
" ARRGGGRH ! " Uryū screamed in pain as he falls to the ground as the Hollow removes his sword.
" URYU ! " Orihime shouted as the Hollow turns to her but Chad arrives to save the day.
" La Muerte ( Spanish for The Death ) " Chad shouted as he goes to punch Hollow Ichigo in the face but Hollow Ichigo counters by lunging it's horns through his chest.
" ARRGH! " Chad shouted as he coughs up blood and falls down to the ground.
" He's moving too fast to strike ! " Tessai stated.
" How is he moving so fast ? Better question is how did he progress this fast in his Hollowfication form ? " Kisuke asked Tessai.
" Let's get ready to fight him ! " Tessai stated as he holds his staff.
" Very well then ! " Kisuke replied.
" RAAHWAHRGH ! " Hollow Ichigo roared as it dashes towards them.
" Bakudō # 99, Part 1. Kin (禁, Seal) " Tessai chanted as he binds the arms of a target to their back like Bakudō #1, but with spiritual fabric and iron shafts nailing the Hollow down.
" Kamisori, Benihime(剃刀紅姫,"Razor, Crimson Princess") " Kisuke chanted as he shoots a sharp blast at Hollow Ichigo
" Kokujō Tengen Myō'ō :Tennohiha (黒縄天譴明王,天の火を刃 Heavenly Punishment of Kokujō's King:Fire Blade of the Heavens ) " Sajin chanted as he swings down his flaming sword .
" Shūkei: Hakuteiken " Byakuya chanted as he goes to strike Hollow Ichigo but he's then cut across the chest by Hollow Ichigo who broke out the binding spell with ease almost being cut in half .
" ARRGGH ! " Byakuya shouted as he falls to the ground.
" BROTHER ! " Rukia shouted as she watches her brother fall to the ground.
" Impossible! He broke out of a Bakudō # 99, the strongest binding spell with ease " Tessai stated.
Hollow Ichigo then grabs Sajin's Tennohiha with one finger and slashes Sajin's Bankai with a weak slash which nearly cuts the Captain in half and cuts the sword in half .
" Impossible, he stopped my strongest attack with a single finger,ARRGH!" Sajin shouted as he falls to the ground back in base form.
" Hyōten Hyakkasō (氷天百華葬, Frozen Heaven Hundred Flower Funeral) " Hitsugaya chanted as he strains himself trying to freeze the Hollow again however the snow melts no sooner it touches Hollow Ichigo's skin doing no damage to the Hollow.
" RWWAARAGH ! " Hollow Ichigo roared as he uses Sonído to appear in front of Hitsugaya.
" Impossible, my strongest attack failed to freeze him ! " Hitsugaya said to himself as he is cut down by a single slash which also nearly cuts him in half " ARRGHGGH ! " Hitsugaya screamed in pain as he falls to the ground.
" Lilly ,Baigon, Hinagiku ! " Orihime shouted as she watches the fairies get cut down in front of her eyes before they can protect their allies " Hitsugaya, Sajin , Byakuya " Orihime shouted as she rushes to aid them.
" Orihime , stay back ! " Rukia shouted as she then sees Hollow Ichigo going to attack Orihime.
" ARRAWHAGAHRYAAGH ! " Hollow Ichigo growled as he charges at Orihime with one index finger with his right hand.
" AAHAHAH ! " Orihime shouted.
" Orihime ! " Kisuke shouted as he then hears the sound of blood splattering but it was Rukia's blood that splattered on the ground.
" ARRGGH ! " Rukia shouted in pain as she falls to the ground after being impaled through the chest with one finger which also shattered the shield created by Ayame and incinerated Ayame.
" RUKIA! AYAME ! " Orihime shouted.
" Damn it, he's too strong. Tessai heal them quickly with Orihime and protect her with your life " Kisuke said to Tessai.
" Right ! " Tessai replied as he goes to help heal the others.
" Time to get serious " Bankai ! " Kisuke shouted as a massive wave of red energy. The red smoke clears revealing Kisuke has a blood-red blade shaped similar to Excalibur which releases blood-red mist everywhere. His Bankai is compressed in the form of glowing red sword " Bankai : Beniōhi ( 紅王妃 Crimson Queen ) " Kisuke chanted as he stands there waiting for Hollow Ichigo.
" RAWHAAHRGH!" Hollow Ichigo roared as it clashes attacks with Kisuke.
Kisuke clashes attacks with Hollow Ichigo while Hollow Ichigo is only using one hand on his sword to counter Kisuke's strikes. Kisuke does a two-handed jump strike causing the ground around Hollow Ichigo to be uplifted 300 feet high as Hollow Ichigo blocks the strike .
" RAWAHAGHAH ! " Hollow Ichigo roared as it pushes back Kisuke's two-handed strike with just his one-handed sword strike.
" What incredible strength ! Is this what destroyed an entire village ? " Kisuke said to himself as he dodges a jump slash which causes a 4,000 foot implosion wave .
Hollow Ichigo then uses his right hand to aim the sword at Kisuke's face but Kisuke blocks the strike . Hollow Ichigo then tries to hit Kisuke with a right horizontal strike but Kisuke blocks with his Bankai being pushed back 20 feet away .
" RAAGGHGHRGH ! " Hollow Ichigo roared as it charges up a Cero.
" Shit ! Beniōhi : Megamiyumi (紅王妃女神の弓 Crimson Queen :Goddess Bow) " Kisuke countered as he fires his Cero like blast but Hollow Ichigo fires his Cero first and overpowers the blast as the blast creates a 1 mile radius explosion . " Impossible! He deflected my fastest attack with a single Cero, how can his Cero be so fast ? " Kisuke said to himself as he then turns to see Hollow Ichigo behind him.
" RAWAGAHAHARWAR ! " Hollow Ichigo roared as it fires another Cero at Kisuke
" Beniōhi : Megamiyumi (紅王妃女神の弓 Crimson Queen :Goddess Bow) " Kisuke countered as he fires his Cero like blast but Hollow Ichigo fires his Cero first and overpowers the blast " He's deflected my Megamiyumi twice ! That's impossible, my Bankai fires a blast 100 times faster than an Cero from an Espada with same amount of power, It's so fast that Yoruichi needs Bankai to evade the blast so how can he counter it with a Cero ? " Kisuke said to himself only to feel Hollow Ichigo grab his left arm .
" RWAAGYAAHAHA ! " Hollow Ichigo roared as he uses it's Bankai to cut off Kisuke's arm.
" ARRGGHGH ! " Kisuke shouted as he drops to the ground.
" GAYAYARAAAAHGHGH ! " Hollow Ichigo roared as it eats Kisuke's arm.
Meanwhile Tessai and Orihime heal the others. Orihime has tears in her eyes as she watches Ichigo butcher his own friends.
" No way, it can't be . This isn't like Kurosaki kun ! What has happened to him ? " Orihime asked as her eyes water up.
" Don't worry, Kisuke would bring him back to his senses , let's focus on saving your friends and comrades " Tessai stated .
" Right! " Orihime replied as she heals Rukia first.
" Chiyukeiro(治癒経路Healing Path ) " Tessai chanted as he heals the others with his staff.
Meanwhile Kisuke stand with his left arm gone and holding his Bankai with his right arm. Kisuke stabs his sword into the ground and goes into his pocket.
" I must say, that's one hell of an injury you did there but i came prepared with this .Hojiku-Zai (補肉剤, Flesh-mending Drug): " Kisuke stated as he injects himself with the needle to regrow his left arm then picks up his Bankai .
" RRAAHGGHRAWH! " Hollow Ichigo roared as it comes at Kisuke.
" Beniōhi :Shinigami Ketsujin (紅王妃,死神血刃Crimson Queen :Reaper Blood Blade)" Kisuke chanted as his sword grows to be the size of an ordinary katana with Reiatsu. Kisuke manages to cut Hollow Ichigo across the chest pushing him back.
" RAAWAR ! " Hollow Ichigo roared as it regenerates from the wound .
" Don't think you could beat me so easily ! " Kisuke stated.
Kisuke clashes attacks with Hollow Ichigo while both are using two-handed attacks . Kisuke does a two-handed jump strike causing the ground around Hollow Ichigo to be uplifted 500 feet high as Hollow Ichigo blocks the strike . Kisuke lands on the ground and pushes Hollow Ichigo's sword back with a horizontal two-handed swing and then goes for another slash but Hollow Ichigo jumps over the attack and does a two-handed jump slash which causes a 2,000 foot implosion wave . Hollow Ichigo then uses his right hand to aim the sword at Kisuke's face but Kisuke blocks the strike . Hollow Ichigo then tries to hit Kisuke with a right roundhouse kick but Kisuke blocks with his sword. Hollow Ichigo then goes for a slash aimed at the right arm but Kisuke blocks the strike and uses a one hand sword lunge but Hollow Ichigo dodges and does a handstand then appears behind Kisuke.
" RAWARGH ! " Hollow Ichigo roared as it shoots a Bala from his right hand.
" Hadō #54. Haien (廃炎, Abolishing Flames) " Kisuke countered as he fires an oblong blast of purple spiritual energy from his hands canceling out the Bala.
" RAAGHAHA! " Hollow Ichigo roared as he fires 2 Balas at Kisuke but Kisuke manages to dodge the Balas . Hollow Ichigo throws 5 more Balas at Kisuke but Kisuke manages to counter the attack.
" Beniōhi : Megamiyumi (紅王妃女神の弓 Crimson Queen :Goddess Bow) " Kisuke chanted as he fires a blast of red energy at speeds 100 times faster than a Cero towards Hollow Ichigo but Hollow Ichigo dodges the attack.
" RARRAAGH ! " Hollow Ichigo roared as it uses Sonído to move at 3,300,000 ft/sec (2,250,000 MPH ) and easily cuts Kisuke's right arm off but it was a portable Gigal.
" I'm used to Yoruichi's Bankai speed, you need to be faster than that Kirisaki, Benihime(切り裂き紅姫,Shred, Crimson Princess) " Kisuke chanted as he fires a barrage of energy bullets from his Bankai damaging Hollow Ichigo forcing him to regenerate. Kisuke then stabs Hollow Ichigo.
" RAWAHAHGH ! " Hollow Ichigo roared as his skin turned crimson red and a white pentagram forms on his shoulder and left pectoral .
" I don't want to risk killing everyone around me, it's best i compress the explosion as much as possible " Kisuke said to himself as he goes to trap Hollow Ichigo.
" RAWWGGH ! " Hollow Ichigo roared as it charges up a Cero.
" Bakudō # 61 . Rikujokoro ( 六杖光牢 Six Rods Prison of Light) " Kisuke countered as he places Hollow Ichigo under the binding spell before it can finish the attack.
" RAARRGRRH ! " Hollow Ichigo growled as it can't move.
" Bakudō # 63 . Sajo Sabaku (鎖条鎖縛, Locking Bondage Stripes)" Kisuke chanted as he binds Danzō's body with Kidō ropes " Bakudō # 79. Kuyo Shibari (九曜縛 Nine Sunlight Traps)" Kisuke chanted as he creates eight black holes that emit spiritual energy in the personal space surrounding Hollow Ichigo, with a ninth black hole manifesting in the center of the Ichigo's chest " Bakudō # 80. Tatehan'ei ( 盾を反映Reflecting Shield ) " Kisuke chanted as he creates a square around Hollow Ichigo.
" RAGGHGHAH ! " Hollow Ichigo roared.
" Beniōhi :Tenkami no hikari ( 紅王妃,天の神の光Crimson Queen :Heavenly Divine Light ) " Kisuke chanted as he shoots 5 beams from the pentagrams hitting Hollow Ichigo. The barrier Kisuke put up compresses the explosion so it only destroys anything within the 10 foot diameter box " That should be enough to stun him " Kisuke said to himself as he's exhausted from the attack.
Hollow Ichigo emerges out of the smoke with his body mildly burned from the explosion. He easily regenerates from his wounds.
" RAAGAHAHRAWAH ! Hollow Ichigo roared as he hits Kisuke with a Cero which forces Kisuke to block.
" Shit, not only did my strongest attack failed to slow him down now he's aiming for Orihime " Kisuke said to himself .
Meanwhile Orihime and Tessai finish healing the others but the other are still out cold from the attack from Hollow Ichigo.
" Everyone is healed ! " Orihime said to Tessai.
" You're a good healer Orihime !" Tessai replied.
Hollow Ichigo then suddenly appears to attack Orihime.
" Ichigo ! " Orihime shouted.
" I won't let you hurt Inoue, Ban... " Tessai chanted but is interrupted mild way by Hollow Ichigo cutting Tessai across the chest and his staff in half as Tessai falls to the ground before he can activate his Bankai.
" TESSAI ! " Orihime and Kisuke shouted.
" RAWWARGH ! " Hollow Ichigo roared as it stares at Orihime .
" Stop this Ichigo! This isn't like you ! " Orihime shouted as she tries to stop him by hugging him but Hollow Ichigo smacks her back knocking her 50 feet away.
" Orihime ! " Kisuke shouted.
" ARRAGGHRAWGH ! " Hollow Ichigo roared as it charges up a Cero towards Orihime.
" Ichigo ! " Orihime shouted as the Cero fires at her.
The Cero explodes destroying everything within a 1 mile radius . It's revealed Kisuke took the hit for Orihime using Beniōhi : Kamigamitate ( 紅王妃, 神神盾Crimson Queen :Divine Goddess Shield ) which is destroyed from the Cero blast and Kisuke is badly wounded.
" Sorry, i guess i failed ! " Kisuke stated as he falls to the ground.
" Kisuke ! " Orihime shouted as she watches him fall.
" RAARRGGHWAR ! " Hollow Ichigo roared as it charges up a Cero that grows to be the size of his body.
" Stop this Ichigo ! " Orihime begged as she grabs Hollow Ichigo.
" RAAGHWAH ! " Hollow Ichigo growled as he turns around facing away from Orihime and fires a Cero southward towards the Campground.
" No, you'll hit the campground ! " Orihime shouted as she tries to stop him but it's too late.
The Cero detonates and explodes creating an immense pillar of flame 6 miles high and 1 mile in diameter.
" RRAGAHWH ! " Hollow Ichigo roared as it beats it's chest like an ape.
" What can i do to stop him ? " Orihime asked.
" Allow me to lend you my power to protect your friends " Gekidō said to Orihime .
" You would do that ? I thought you said i wasn't ready " Orihime stated.
" You aren't , allow me to demonstrate some of the powers that you hold inside of you " Gekidō replied as she takes over Orihime.
Suddenly an immense amount of Reiatsu emerges next to Hollow Ichigo . The Reiatsu shoots up revealing a golden wave of Reiatsu in the sky which then brightens the dark sky within 2 mile radius . Orihime emerges with a rainbow aura around her with rainbow-colored phoenix wings with an intense look of anger in her eyes which now has glowing blue eyeballs with no pupils .
" What the hell ? What's this power i'm sensing ? " Tessai asked.
" Orihime's power has massively increased but how ? " Kisuke answered.
" Ichigo, i won't let you hurt anyone else ! " Orihime shouted in intense anger as she's now processed by Gekidō Toai Tenshi.
" ROARRASAGGRH ! " Hollow Ichigo roared as it charges at Orihime.
" Koten Zanshun (孤天斬盾, Solitary Sacred Cutting Shield)" Angel Orihime chanted as she knocks back Hollow Ichigo 16 miles north from the village.
" What power , who knew Orihime had such powers ? " Kisuke asked himself.
Meanwhile at Squad 4's campground
The pillar of flames die down to reveal that the campground is undamaged from the blast.
" That was a close one ! " Akon stated.
" To think Yamamoto himself would show up on the frontlines " Rin stated.
" Indeed, had not for my Jōkaku Enjō (城郭炎上, Fortress Blaze), everyone would've been dead from that Cero " Yamamoto stated as he wields his flaming sword.
" Thanks for the save Captain ! " Sasakibe stated.
" It seems this Hollow has really gotten out of hand , i guess i must punish it " Yamamoto replied but then they sense a spiritual power from a distance.
" What's this immense spiritual power from a distance ? " Akon asked.
" Damn it, don't tell me there's another Tailed Beast fighting out within the village. If that's the case, i'll need my Bankai " Yamamoto stated.
" Seems that way. The spiritual power coming from the west end of the village matches with the spiritual power fighting former Captain Urahara" Hiyosu explained to them.
" How high is it ? " Yamamoto asked.
" 25,000,000 RYK " Hiyosu answered.
" I see, the 9 Tails must still be fighting Kurosaki and going by the other reading coming from the main gate, they must be sending in another Tailed Beast of the same power to deal with Kurosaki after the 9 Tails weakens him, i also sense a spiritual power on par with Shunsui and Ukitake" Yamamoto explained to them.
" Could it be the Kage is trying to use another Tailed Beast to take Ichigo from us ? " Sasakibe asked.
" That's what it seems ! " Akon replied.
" That's impossible, Yoruichi reported she killed the Hokage " Rin stated.
" Maybe it's another Kage from a nearby village out to take over Konoha for himself under Aizen's orders " Sasakibe replied.
" It doesn't matter whatever case it is, i have no choice but to stop this rampage myself and kill the Kage level power in the village" Yamamoto stated as he walks out of the campground.
" What a crazy amount of power , to think he can stop the same Cero that toasted an entire city with Shikai alone . No wonder he's Captain Commander " Akon said to Sasakibe.
" Things are about to get from bad to worse if we don't leave here . Yamamoto's Bankai is said to have the power to incinerate an area greater than that of Karakura Town. Yamamoto's Bankai could also level mountains with a causal sword swipe even if he's not hitting it directly and create tsunamis with a swing of his sword. If these Tailed Beasts are an indication how powerful they are, thing are about to get ugly fast " Sasakibe explained to them.
Meanwhile 10 miles east of Konoha
Danzō and 6 Tails fight each other . Danzō dodges several claw slashes from Kyuubi Naruto and goes to cut Kyuubi Naruto but the Kyuubi dodges the attack and comes closer to Danzō. Both of them are fighting within the crater.
" Wind Style Vacuum Bomb " Danzō chanted as he fires a spherical blast towards Kyuubi Naruto but the Kyuubi uses it's Chakra to shield himself from the blast " Damn it, his Chakra is protecting him " Danzō said to himself as he then sees Kyuubi Naruto attack.
" MMUUUAHAGH ! " Kyuubi Naruto countered as it swings it's claws at high speeds creating a 2,000 foot diameter 30,000 foot high tornado that moves at 733.3 feet/sec (500 MPH)
" Wind Style: Vacuum Serial Waves " Danzō countered as he fires another blast of wind negating the blast.
" ARRRGAHAHGRAWH ! " Kyuubi Naruto roared as it shoots 50 blasts of Chakra at Danzō but Danzō dodges them all.
" Shinkūtatsumakiha (真空竜巻刃 Vacuum Tornado Blade ) " Danzō chanted as he creates his powerful wind blade.
Danzō clashes attacks with Kyuubi Naruto . Danzō does a two-handed jump strike causing the ground around Kyuubi to be uplifted 500 feet high as Kyuubi Naruto blocks the strike . Danzō lands on the ground and pushes Kyuubi Naruto's tail back with a horizontal two-handed swing and then goes for another slash but Kyuubi Naruto jumps over the attack and does a two-handed jump slash with his claws which causes a 2,000 foot implosion wave . Kyuubi Naruto then uses his right hand to aim his claw at Danzō's face but Danzō blocks the strike . Kyuubi Naruto then goes for a slash aimed at the right arm but Danzō blocks the strike and uses a one hand sword lunge but Kyuubi Naruto uses Shunshin to appear behind Danzō.
" RAWARGH ! " Hollow Ichigo roared as it slashes Danzō across the chest with it's right .
" ARRGH ! " Danzō stated as he staggers back and holds his chest.
" RWAAGHGAYHH ! " Kyuubi Naruto roared as it fires an uncharged Bijuudama at Danzō.
" Water Style: Exploding Water Shock Wave (水遁・爆水衝波Suiton: Bakusui Shōha) " Danzō chanted as he spits out a great volume of water from his mouth that becomes a massive wave of water which cancels out the blast and fills the 4,874 foot diameter, 1,330 foot deep crater with water.
" RARAGAHRRH ! " Kyuubi Naruto roared as water vapor burns around him as the water starts to vaporize from his Chakra forming steam and decreasing 1 foot deep every second.
Danzō is put on the defense as Kyuubi Naruto sends out a wave of 20 Chakra arms which Danzō manages to dodge using his highspeed movement to dodge all the tendrils. Kyuubi Naruto sends 50 more Chakra arms to attack him.
" Iaidō:Kunai Henkō (居合クナイ偏向Way of Iai :Kunai Deflection) " Danzō chanted as he swings his sword at high speeds in a horizontal arc cutting up all the tendrils attacking him from the mist .
" RRAWRGHRRHR ! " Kyuubi Naruto roared as it fires 298 small Chakra blasts like a machine gun firing at 1,200 shots per minute.
" Wind Style :Air Barrier " Danzō countered as he blocks the attacks as the blasts get deflected " Is that all you've got ? " Danzō taunted.
" RAAGAH! " Kyuubi Naruto roared as it uses Shunshin to move at 3,300,000 ft/sec (2,250,000 MPH ) moving so fast he creates a 100 foot tidal wave blinding Danzō.
" He's fast ! " Danzō stated only to get his left arm cut off by Kyuubi Naruto " ARRGGH ! Damn it, i no longer have Izanagi. I can now get hit by his attacks . He moved so fast that it caught even a Kage like me off guard " Danzō grunted as he holds onto his arm socket dropping his blade into the water. Danzō then forms a spiraling tornado in his right hand and then compresses it into a ball and swallows the ball of wind and gathers Chakra around him.
" RYAAHAGHA ! " Kyuubi Naruto roared as it dashes towards Danzō.
" Fūton: Asshuku Shinkūken (風遁、圧縮真空圏 Wind Style, Compressed Vacuum Sphere )" Danzō chanted as he fires a massive arrow-like energy blast from his mouth that hits the Kyuubi who is 200 feet away from it but with sheer brute force, the Kyuubi easily walks against the power.
" GRRAAAWAHRAGHARYAH ! " Kyuubi Naruto roared as it gets closer to Danzō.
" Impossible, he's withstanding my Fūton: Asshuku Shinkūken (風遁、圧縮真空圏 Wind Style, Compressed Vacuum Sphere ) " Danzō said to himself as the arrow shatters on the Kyuubi's skin and fails the penetrate him and the force wave sends Danzō flying westward to the end of the crater.
" RAWGHAH ! " Kyuubi Naruto growled as he stops attacking for a moment and shoots hundreds of bubble like Chakra spheres from it's body. The water in the crater melts completely from the intense Chakra.
" He's aiming his attack at the Village again, if he hits there again, Konoha is fucked ! " Danzō said to himself.
" RAWHAAHAHAHARAWR ! " Kyuubi Naruto growled as the black sphere grows 6 feet in diameter as well and then it eats the blast.
" This is bad ! " Danzō stated.
" ARWAHGAH !" Kyuubi Naruto roared as the sphere detonates inside the body and the Chakra is fired from the mouth as a powerful beam.
" Summoning Jutsu : Baku " Danzō chanted as he summons a massive 50 foot high elephantine chimera to absorb the full power Tailed Beast blast in it's mouth.
" RRAGGGHRAWAH ! " Kyuubi Naruto roared as it's shocked to see it's blast blocked.
" Eat this Yumeakumukui ( 夢と悪夢の食いDevourer of Dreams and Nightmares ) " Danzō chanted as he has Baku spit out the Kyuubi's own Tailed Beast blast at twice the speed and power right back at Kyuubi.
" ARRGHWARGH ! " ! Kyuubi Naruto roared in pain as the Kyuubi is pushed back 20 miles away from the blast and then the Bijuudama explodes on him creating a 15 mile radius explosion .
The smoke reveals that the Kyuubi took mild injuries from the blast and is healing them. Danzō arrives at the area riding Baku.
" I musn't give it the chance to recover ! Earth Style: Stone Column Spear (土遁・岩柱槍 Doton: Ganchūsō) " Danzō chanted as he summons three 200 foot long spears of earth the pin down the Kyuubi.
" ARRHAGAHAHWARWARH ! " Kyuubi roared as it tries to break out.
" I only have one arm but i must do this Hokage-Shiki Jijun Jutsu - Kakuan Nitten Suishu ( 火影式耳順術 廓庵入鄽垂手 Hokage Style Elder Jutsu: Tenth Edict On Enlightenment) " Danzō chanted as he creates ten wooden pillars while producing the seal "sit" (座) on his palm. The wooden tendrils bind down Naruto.
" RAWARGH ! " Kyuubi Naruto roared as it charges up a Bijuudama from his mouth.
" Now time for the finish ! " Danzō shouted as he hits Naruto with his palm with the seal "sit" (座) and a blue string of Chakra comes out of it.
" RAAWAHGGH ! " Kyuubi Naruto roared as it shatters the rocks and then tries to escape but it starts reverting back to normal .
" Just a bit more ! " Danzō stated as his body struggles with the stress .
" RRWAAGHAHAAAAGGRH ! " Kyuubi Naruto roared as it starts becoming more human and the demonic roars become more like human screams.
After a long minute , Naruto finally reverts back to normal with his epidermis burned off and his red inner dermis exposed. The pillars go back to the ground as Naruto falls down unconscious. Danzō falls to knees severely exhausted of all his Chakra and his Baku summoning disappears.
" I did it , i managed to save Konoha . Thank goodness no one saw my secret Jutsu " Danzō said to himself as he collapses onto the ground passed out from Chakra exhaustion .
Meanwhile 1 mile north of the campground
Yamamoto senses two energies dying down as he runs shirtless with his Shikai activated.
" Two powers died down , must of sensed my presence and retreated knowing that i can't be beaten. Wise move however that means that no one stands in my way of capturing the Nine Tailed Demon Fox myself " Yamamoto stated as he rushes to the battlefield.
Meanwhile 16 miles North of Konoha
Orihime in angel form clashes with Second Hollow from Bankai Ichigo barehanded.
" Take this ! " Angel Orihime shouted as she punches Hollow Ichigo in the stomach and send the Hollow flying 2 miles away.
" ARRAGH ! " Hollow Ichigo moaned in pain feeling on it's chest.
" You can't escape justice ! " Angel Orihime shouted as she comes at Hollow Ichigo moving at 3,300,000 ft/sec (2,250,000 MPH ).
Both Hollow Ichigo and Angel Orihime clash blows with each other once again matching each other in power . Angel Orihime charges right at the Hollow but Hollow Ichigo counters swinging it's sword and the power of the sword swing creates a 3,000 foot semi radius shockwave creating a crescent shape fissure around the area he leveled. Angel Orihime is knocked back from the force wave.
" RAWWARGH ! " Hollow Ichigo roared as he slashes Orihime across the chest with his bankai blade.
" That won't work ! " Angel Orihime replied as she heals herself and then uses her energy fist to cut Hollow Ichigo's arm off.
" ARRGHGYAH ! " Hollow Ichigo roared as it screams in pain from the strike before growing back it's arm.
Angel Orihime throws 15 punches at Hollow Ichigo but Hollow Ichigo manages to block all of them . Hollow Ichigo then grabs Angel Orihime's right arm and cuts it off only for Angel Orihime to regrow it . Ichigo then tries to Angel Orihime with a jumping slash but Orihime moves out the way. Ichigo comes at Angel Orihime with a right stab but Angel Orihime moves left to avoid the blade and dodges a powerful slash .
" Take this Jōshōāsu (上昇アースRising Earth)" Angel Orihime shouted as she uses telekinesis to lift up 20 500 foot rocks around her and hurl them at Hollow Ichigo.
" RAAGWHAAHARAGH ! " Hollow Ichigo roared as it fires a Cero canceling out the rock rain. Hollow Ichigo then dashes right towards Orihime and goes to cut her.
" Obieta Sekiryoku ( おびえた斥力Scared Repulsion )" Angel Orihime chanted as she creates an orange barrier which expands into a shockwave that knocks back Hollow Ichigo 1 mile away.
" RAWAHAAGGHARW ! " Hollow Ichigo roared as he gets back up and prepares to fight again.
" Jigokuikari (地獄の怒りHell's Fury ) "Angel Orihime chanted as she shoots a massive wave of flames at Hollow Ichigo but Hollow Ichigo swings his sword overpowering the flames.
" RWWARRGHGH ! " Hollow Ichigo roared as it counters with a Getsuga Tenshō that Orihime dodges .
" Kanashimiribā (悲しみリバー River of Sorrows ) " Angel Orihime chanted as she punches the ground creating a massive wave of water and hitting Hollow Ichigo with a tidal wave and knocking him down.
" RRAWRGHRRHR! " Hollow Ichigo roared as it fires 298 Balas like a machine gun firing at 1,200 shots per minute.
" Akikyōfū (秋の強風 Gales of Autumn )" Angel Orihime countered as she blocks all the blasts with a tornado around her.
" RAGAHWARR! " Hollow Ichigo roared as it goes to attack Angel Orihime and slashes her across the chest but she easily heals from the wounds.
" Shōgekitōtsū (衝撃疼痛 Shocking Pain) " Orihime chanted as she uses a wave of lightning to stun Hollow Ichigo in his place but Hollow Ichigo breaks out of the lightning and charges at Orihime.
" GYYAAAHHAHAHAHAH ! " Hollow Ichigo roared as he charges up a massive Cero that grows to be the size of his head and keeps growing.
" Time to end this ! " Angel Orihime stated as she gets into her prayer position while a ray of light appears around her and a rainbow colored ball of energy glows in her hands .
" RWWAAAHAH ! " Hollow Ichigo roared as he fires a Cero size of his body at Orihime.
" Shun Shun Rikka : Kūkan Hōkai (盾舜六花, 空間的崩壊 Six Flowers of the Hibiscus Shield: Spatial Disintegration) " Angel Orihime chanted as she fires a flower shaped rainbow beam of energy towards the Cero.
Both beams clash with each other as the explosion occurs leveling everything within a 15 mile radius around Orihime and Hollow Ichigo.
The smoke clears up to reveal Orihime lost her left arm while Hollow Ichigo lost his right arm however Hollow Ichigo's right arm isn't recovering.
" RAGGHWARGH ! " Hollow Ichigo roared as it struggles to heal.
" There's no hope of getting your arm back unless i allow it to be . Shun Shun Rikka : Kūkan Hōkai (盾舜六花, 空間的崩壊 Six Flowers of the Hibiscus Shield: Spatial Disintegration) destroys anything that was ever touched by the beam, you can't reconstruct it unless you are healed by me and that's not going to happen. Goodbye monster !" Gekidō explained to Hollow Ichigo as she goes for the finishing blow.
" Stop it Gekidō ! That's enough, if you continue, you might kill Ichigo " Orihime said to Gekidō.
" If you let him live, he 'll try to kill your friends. It's best you kill him Orihime " Gekidō stated.
" No, i can never kill Ichigo! I'll stop him my way and the only way i know how to " Orihime stated.
" Are you sure about this Orihime ? Not even you can reject his demon powers completely, all you could do is suppress them. If he loses it again, there's no telling what might happen " Gekidō asked.
" Ichigo is my best friend, no he's even more than that to me . Ichigo is my world, i l... " Orihime explained to Gekidō but is interrupted before she can finish her sentence .
" RAWGAHAHRAWH ! " Hollow Ichigo roared as it charges up another full power Cero.
" You only have enough power left for one attack, use it wisely otherwise you're dead " Gekidō said to Orihime.
" I don't need to be told that, i don't plan on attacking him ! " Orihime replied as she slowly reverts back to normal as her feathers start to fall off as she walks towards him.
" RRAWRRGGH ! " Hollow Ichigo roared as it fires it's Cero at Orihime however Orihime is protecting herself in a shield as she walks towards the Hollow slowly losing more feathers.
" Ichigo, stop this madness right now ! You're not this hideous monster that has taken you over , you're much stronger than this " Orihime said to Hollow Ichigo as part of Ichigo's mind starts to break through.
" Orihime ! " Ichigo asked briefly reverting to his human voice while in Hollow Form.
" Ichigo ! " Orihime shouted.
" Orihime ...ARRGGHH ! " Ichigo screamed as he reverts back to his demon voice.
" Annoying little bitch, how dare she ruin this much fun ? " Hollow Ichigo shouted inside his head.
" You bastard, you took me over again didn't you ? " Ichigo shouted at his inner Hollow.
" You fool, you would've died back there had not for me . That Rasenshiruken attack crushed your body and damaged every bone in your body which was a great way for me to become the king "Hollow Ichigo answered.
" You bastard, i don't need you attacking my friends " Ichigo shouted at his Hollow.
" Too bad, the more you drew on my powers , the stronger i become. You have no spiritual energy left in your body to defeat me so watch as i turn your friend to dust "Hollow Ichigo stated.
" Orihime ! " Ichigo replied shouting before token over by the darkness.
" RRAAWWH ! " Hollow Ichigo roared as it charges up another Cero, this time the size of a truck.
" This is punishment for getting in my way . You're power is too much of a threat to my fun , goodbye " Hichigo said to Orihime despite the fact she can't hear him outside of Ichigo's head.
" GAYAHAHAHA! " Hollow Ichigo roared as it fires a Cero right towards Orihime .
" Shiten Kōshun (四天抗盾, Shield of Four Heavens' Resistance) " Orihime countered as she uses her shield at her full power to deflect the blast back at Hollow Ichigo creating a 30 mile semi-circle radius explosion north of Orihime.
Hollow Ichigo emerges from the smoke with his body badly burned from the explosion. Hollow Ichigo is unable to regenerate from the blast.
" Damn it you bitch ! " Hichigo shouted as he shoots a barrage of Balas at Orihime but Orihime isn't taking any damage.
" GAYAYAHAHAHRAHWGH! " Hollow Ichigo roared as it charges up another Cero.
" Koten Zanshun (孤天斬盾, Solitary Sacred Cutting Shield) " Orihime chanted as she uses an reforged Tsubaki to cut Hollow's right horn off before he finish his Cero.
" Damn it ! " Hichigo shouted as he grabs Orihime by the neck using Hollow Ichigo.
" Sōten Kisshun (双天帰盾, Twin Sacred Return Shield)" Orihime chanted as she creates an half-oval barrier around Ichigo and hugs him.
" Damn you, DAMN YOU ! " Hichigo shouted as the demon starts going back to normal.
" Ichigo ! " Orihime shouted as she kisses the Hollow directly in the mouth which causes the mask to crack as Ichigo reverts back to normal as his longer hair fades away and he passes out while Orihime is holding on to him with her lips apart.
" Orihime ...! " Ichigo said to her as he passes out while Orihime's feathers run out.
" Looks like you're back. Thanks Gekidō ! " Orihime said to her spirit .
" You're welcome however it seems that you won't be able to heal using us for a while " Gekidō said to her.
" What do you mean ? " Orihime asked.
" The angel form you access could only be used once a day and needs several days of rest . While during those days, you can't use your Shun Shun Rikka " Gekidō explained to her.
" I see, i guess i have to thank you for what you did ! " Orihime asked.
" You're welcome , one day you could use this power by your will " Gekidō replied her voice disappears and the blue hairpins turn black .
" I'm sorry dizzy, can't move body ! " Orihime said to herself as she falls on top of Ichigo and both of them lie there out cold.
Yamamoto walks by to see the two shocked to see them.
" So all this time, it was Inoue's power i was sensing and not a Tailed Beast . Just what is this girl " Yamamoto said to himself as he grabs the both of them and carry them away.
Konoha ruins
1:00 P.M. People walk around the ruins of Konoha within the 10 mile diameter, 3 mile deep crater. The entire area around the village is covered in darkness with all the smoke from the Cero blast collision blocking out the sun. The afternoon looks like an eerie twilight as of a result of a nuclear winter.
" Impossible ! How can such a thing occur ? " one of the Shinobi said looking around the ruins of the village.
Meanwhile at the main gate Shizune gets back up as well as Yamato , Chōza ,Inoichi, Ino ,Shikamaru, Chōji and Sakura.
" What's going on ? " Shikamaru asked.
" Looks like the fighting has stopped completely ! " Chōji answered.
" I no longer sensing Tailed Beast Chakra " Inoichi stated.
" Danzō must of defeated the 6 Tails by himself ! " Shikaku replied.
" Damn it, last thing we need is him at this crisis ! " Shikamaru said to his dad.
" I don't like him myself but he's all we got at the moment . It's uncertain if Lady Tsunade would be okay but for the time being we have no choice but to obey Danzō. He's currently the strongest in the village " Shizune explained to Shikamaru.
" Still, i wonder if Danzō is as bad as Lady Tsunade says he is ! " Sakura asked.
" He is , he's an extremist ! Let's hope Tsunade somehow pulls a recovery " Shikaku replied.
Meanwhile at the other side of ruins. Konohamaru is carrying Ebisu on his shoulders while Udon and Mogei walk alongside them.
" Damn the Shinigmai ! " Konohamaru shouted.
" Everything we cherished is gone ! " Ebisu stated.
" How could this happen ? " Udon asked.
" This is the worst thing i have ever experienced ! " Mogei answered as tears come out her eyes.
" Be strong guys,we must never show tears ! " Konohamaru said to his friends while tears form around his eyes.
" We lost badly ! " Ebisu replied.
Suddenly the team encounters Iruka within the ruins.
" You're alive Iruka sensei ! " Konohamaru said to the team.
" Looks like you guys made it out alive too . Looks like you broke your leg " Iruka stated.
" It's nothing, i just got my leg caught in debris ! " Ebisu replied.
" Still, it's hard to believe that the village has been leveled this badly from one attack " Iruka explained to the glasses wearing Special Jōunin.
Meanwhile Genma ,Raidō, and Aoba emerge from the slugs .
" Damn it ! How could of this happened ? " Genma shouted.
" The Nine Tails went out of control and did this " Aoba answered.
" This is bad, even with the civilians alive , how can we feed that many people with food supplies and water supplies gone ? " Raidō, asked as they stare at the massive crater that they are in.
Meanwhile Anko wakes up from being knocked out by the sealing Jutsu by Kurenai when she looks around to see the damaged caused by Hollow Ichigo and Kyuubi Naruto's Cero.
" What happened to Konoha ? " Anko asked shocked and horrified to see the village gone.
" Don't blame yourself, it wasn't your fault " Yūgao said to her as she picks up Anko.
" Who could of caused that much devastation to the entire village ? " Anko questioned.
" It was the Gotei 13, they sent out the 10 Tails to provoke Naruto into unleashing a Tailed Beast blast which leveled the village " Yūgao answered.
" I never seen this level of devastation before, not even the Orochimaru invasion 3 years back left this much of an disaster " Anko replied.
" It would take months to rebuild the basic structures of this village, if not years " Kakashi stated.
" Not to mention the scar the attack itself left on the earth . Konoha would never recover from the damage it suffered geographically " Gai replied.
Everyone then notices all the Katsuyu slug clones disappearing in front of their eyes.
" It seems Katsuyu reached her limits " Kakashi said to Gai.
" After all it did, i guess so too ! " Gai replied.
Meanwhile 30 miles east from Konoha
Katsuyu finishes healing Naruto with the last of her Chakra and Naruto wakes up to see Danzō standing fully healed and his left arm restored thanks to Katsuyu's healing.
" Thanks alot Katsuyu ! " Danzō said to her.
" No, thank you for protecting the village ! " Katsuyu replied.
" Me and Tsunade have our differences but that doesn't mean i don't try to do what's best for my village " Danzō replied as he gets back up.
" I guess i have nothing left to give ! " Katsuyu stated as she disappears being resummoned to where she came from.
Naruto is now fully awake in the middle of nowhere surrounded by a barren wasteland.
" Where am i ? " Naruto asked himself only to be handcuffed from behind by Danzō.
" You're under arrest ! " Danzō said to Naruto.
" What for ? I didn't do anything wrong " Naruto asked.
" For leveling the entire Hidden Leaf Village " Danzō answered.
" What ? I don't believe you . Just who are you anyways ? " Naruto questioned.
" Right, you don't remember me do you ? You were only 9 when we first met, allow me to introduce myself to you kid. My name is Danzō Shimura but you can call me The Sixth Hokage " Danzō answered in a calm tone.
" Sixth? " Naruto asked shocked to hear this " You can't be the Sixth, Tsunade is ... "
" Dead ! " Danzō replied coldly.
" What ? ! " Naruto asked shocked.
" Well not really, Tsunade is at a comatose state because she protected the villagers lives from you. Your Six Tails form not only drove out the enemy from this village but you literally drove the entire village to the ground . What a reckless old hag the Fifth was for letting you continue being a ninja " Danzō explained to Naruto.
" Don't talk shit about Lady Tsunade ! " Naruto shouted.
" You and her and the Third Hokage were all fools . They thought by letting someone like you free would benefit them in a way but letting a demon like you have free will only brought destruction to the village. Such ideals such as diplomacy and negotiation only weaken the village and in the case of Sunagakure, they're own Kazekage was kidnapped . Then again that's what happens when you let an brat run a village " Danzō stated.
" Just who do you think you are talking down Gaara ? Also the Third Hokage and the Fifth Hokage care about bringing peace to this world,you seem nothing more than a warmonger " Naruto said to Danzō.
" Warmonger ? You misunderstood my ideals but then again a brat like you has yet to understand how the world works . I too seek peace for the ninja world, one i would achieve by uniting all Shinobi forces under Konoha's control. In order to achieve this peace, we must keep those in line with an iron fist and a tight leash " Danzō explained to Naruto.
" That's tyranny , controlling those with fear isn't the way to be an Hokage " Naruto shouted.
" What naivety, you are merely a child. 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 as well as Tsunade and Hiruzen, especially for the Hokage not acting on killing Sasuke Uchiha " Danzō explained to Naruto.
" What did you say ? " Naruto asked.
" My first order of business as the Sixth Hokage would be the assassination of Sasuke Uchiha " Danzō answered.
" I won't let you put your hands on Sasuke and i refuse to acknowledge an asshole " Naruto replied as he breaks out the handcuffs and charges up his Rasengan but his body stops him from forming Chakra.
" Amazing how you can break out of these handcuffs even with your low Chakra but it's over for you Water Style : Water Binding Jutsu " Danzō chanted as he binds Naruto's arms together and reforms new handcuffs.
" Damn it ! " Naruto shouted.
" You're going to a special containment cell however i want you to go around the Village you destroyed and let people see the one who ruined their lives " Danzō said to Naruto as he drags Naruto to the village.
September 24,2001 1:15 P.M. Soul Society, Bleachverse
1:15 P.M. All the Shinigmai return to the Soul Society and enter the Senkaimon within the Seireitei. 1,500 troops were killed by the Shinobi leaving 25% the military force of the Gotei 13 gone. Over 8 hours have passed since the invasion began , 410 Shinigmai were injured in the fight . The 287 injured in the fight against Root have all been healed by Orihime.
Meanwhile within Sōgō Kyūgo Tsumesho
Sajin and Hitsugaya are lying in a hospital bed recovering from the strain of her Reiatsu as well as Renji, Chad ,Uryū, Rukia, Byakuya and Tessai.
" Looks like we all made it out of here alive " Renji said to his friends.
" Indeed, i thought we were both dead for a second ! " Chad stated.
" I never took a beating this bad in my life !" Hitsugaya replied.
" It's amazing we're all here in one piece " Uryū stated.
" Where's Ichigo ? " Rukia asked.
" He's with Inoue , both of them haven't awaken yet " Tessai answered.
" After all that happened, i'm not surprised " Byakuya replied.
Meanwhile Unohana and Isane are working on the injured without having medical Kidō to heal the patients.
" This is going to be strenuous ! " Unohana said to Isane.
" Especially since we don't have healing Kidō due to exhaustion of our Reiatsu " Isane replied.
" Don't despair Isane , Kidō limitations are no different from medical treatment. We are so skilled that we can still heal just as good using conventional medical techniques and equipment " Unohana stated.
"I guess you're right ! " Isane replied.
Meanwhile medical Shinigami begin their work on the hundreds of injured brought into the squad as they are begin their work.
" This is alot of work we have in our hands " Hanataro said to Lemura .
" Indeed , we never had to heal this many people in our lifetimes " Lemura replied as he picks up a scalpel.
Suddenly several Squad 11 members appear towards them.
" Crap Squad 11 members ! " Hanataro said to Lemura frightened to see them.
" We're so not in the mood for their bullshit ! " Lemura replied.
" Well ,well well , isn't it Hanataro " said one of the guys with a mohawk.
" Please don't hurt me ! " Hanataro shouted as he hides behind Lemura.
" You saved our asses back there !" said a guy with scars on his head.
" You saved my life ! " Goteitaishi stated.
" You guys may of been in a support role, but you guys bravely fought against the Shinobi " a bald unseated officer said to Hanataro.
" Not to mention your Shikai is very powerful for someone who doesn't know how to fight " Goteitaishi stated.
" Umm... thank you ! " Hanataro replied.
Meanwhile at Squad 11 barracks
Kenpachi sits in a room by himself trying to comprehend what happened to him.
" How could i lose ? I'm the strongest Kenpachi to ever exist within the last 200 years and one of the most powerful Shinigami in the Soul Society " Kenpachi thinks to himself as he thinks back to what happened to him.

Kenpachi's pov
I fought against the Hokage of the village . Despite everything i put into my swings and blows, she wouldn't bulge or flinch until i used my Kendo.
" I must admit, i never expected your attack to be strong enough to cleaning slice my arm off. Consider this a compliment of your raw power from a Kage. To cut my arm at just a small fraction of my power is considered a great feat. That level of strength can easily rival Gai, you're very good " Tsunade said to me unnervingly calm about losing an arm.
"Why're you so clam all the sudden ? You just lost an arm. The next strike would be you head and you will die but given you only have one arm i'm done fighting you unless you still wish to fight me "i arrogantly taunted with a grin as i gripped both hands on my jagged sword.
" Fool you think this is over because you cut my arm ? I underestimated you however this time i'm well aware of your strength, swordsmanship skills, and abilities. I can also easily replace this arm " Tsunade said to me.
" You're bluffing ! " i said to Tsunade not convinced that she can do it .
" Very well then , allow me to show you my power " Tsunade replied as she easily regrows her arm within 2 seconds with green Chakra leaking out the arm. I was shocked she can grow back her arm.
" I see, you can regrow your arms back, it looks like this is going to be fun after all " i shouted as i dashed at Tsunade with two hands on my Zanpakutō but she uses her right hand to easily grab the blade with no injuries on her hand.
" Like i said, i'm done playing around with you " Tsunade replied as she punches me 330 feet away.
" WHAT ! How did you grab my blade with your bare hand ? " i asked the blonde busty powerhouse.
" Did you seriously think i was fighting at full power ? All i was doing was using you to polish my fighting skills, i have been a bit rusty sitting in a desk for 3 years and i haven't had a decent fight since them , now that i have gotten warmed up, i have no further use for you " she said to me as she gave off a murderous aura just like her .
" Now do you feel the difference in power between me and you, you're so overwhelmed with fear you can barely move your body. Now allow me to show you 10% of my real power " Tsunade replied as her fist glows with blue Chakra which releases a wave of Chakra which terrified me.
Knowing this was a do or die situation , i charged head first towards the Hokage " Kendō: Ryōdan (剣道:両断, Way of The Sword :Bisection") " i chanted as i swung my sword horizontally with two hands then swings downward with a vertical strike hitting the Hokage but the blade shatters easily on impact on the Hokage's busty breasts doing no damage " WHAT! "
" You're done ! " Tsunade shouted as she punches me so hard in the chest that blood violently coughs out my chest and i was sent flying 3,300 feet southward towards the group hitting the 50 foot diameter, 15 foot deep semi circular crater dead center.

" If ninjas have that much power, what hope do we have if we have to fight 4 more Shinobi Nations ? In order to win, all the 7 Shinigmai Nations need to band together to win " Kenpachi said to himself as he sits alone in his room.
Konoha
1:30 P.M. Danzō walks Naruto while Naruto is handcuffed when Naruto see the massive 10 mile diameter ,3 mile deep crater. Konoha is engulfed in a severe thunderstorm which brings heavy rain that flood up to 4 inches of rain over the leveled city of Konoha. A thunderstorm rains down on Naruto as Naruto looks at the destruction of the village.
" It can't be , i did all this ? " Naruto asked shocked to see the immense destruction.
" Still don't believe me when i said you did this ? " Danzō asked him.
" No , damn it, Damn it ! DAMN IT ! " Naruto shouted as he breaks down crying.
" See why you need to be contained ? Had not for the Fifth Hokage's quick thinking, you would of killed everyone in this village " Danzō stated.
" I see, i deserve to be contained. I'm a monster who not only can't win a battle but i end up destroying everything in my path. I can never be Hokage ... I give up, i give up , I GIVE UP !" Naruto stated in despair as he bows his head in shame as tears come down his eyes.
" Looks like you made a wise decision ! " Danzō replied as they walk through the main gate where Naruto is greeted with boos and rants from the angry villagers.
" It's the Nine Tails ! " all the villagers shouted as the boo Naruto.
" You destroyed our village you bastard !" shouted another villager.
" Get out of this village demon ! " shouted a bunch of angry kids as they throw stones and pebbles at Naruto as Naruto walks through the village in despair .
" Get out of here demon ! " said the villagers as they each throw stones at Naruto which break on the depressed teens head as Naruto walks the path of despair .
Yamato, Sakura and Ino watch Naruto walk by as the entire village turns against him.
" It's just as i feared, the whole village has turned against him " Yamato said to Sakura.
" Naruto ! " Sakura said herself as tears form around her eyes as she thinks back to the past.
10 Years ago
Sakura's pov
It was during those years that my father died on a mission when i was born and i was raised by my mother Senka Haruno. I never met my dad because he was always far away in missions. My mother was a beautiful young woman with violet hair who was a Chūnin level Ninja who worked as a Scholar within the Konoha Archive Library. My grandma lived in the same house with us and was a veteran Ninja from the Second Shinobi world War. It was a good night here when my mother came home with her scrolls.
" Hello Sakura ! " my mom said to me.
" Hi Mommy ! " i replied back to her hugging her.
" Hey Sakura how about we go and go spend some quality time together my dear daughter ? How about we get a bite of syrup-coated anko dumplings" my mom said to me.
" Oh boy , that's my favorite food ! " i replied as i walk with my mom with her and my grandma. As me and my mother and grandmother crosses through the town. I then see a crowd gather around a shop where i see a young boy being chased out of a flower shop by angry townsfolks.
" Hey isn't that the one ? " said a random female villager.
" How disgusting! Let's leave" said another random villager.
" Mommy who is that kid and why are people being so cruel to him ? " i asked my mother.
" It's nothing, that child is rumored to be cursed ! " my mother replied.
" Still why are they treating him like he's a demon ? " i asked my mother.
" Nevermind that , we go to get to the restaurant before it closes " my grandmother replied trying to change to subject.
Later that night after eating in a restaurant . I was in my house reading a book from my mother's collection of mother had a large collection of books in her disposal.
" Mommy could you tell me what ever happened to my dad ? " i asked her.
" It's about time you know the truth, you're father died 6 years ago when the 9 Tailed Fox attacked our village .He protected me and you from the monster, had not for him, you would not be around nor would i " my mother replied.
" He must of been very strong !" i told her.
" Yeah but the 9 Tails was even stronger, had not for the 4th Hokage who defeated him and sacrificed his life for us, we would of been all be dead " she said as she tucks me in bed.
" I hope he's in a better place now ! " i told her before going to sleep.

" Sakura are you alright ? " Ino asked .
" It's not fair ! Why does everything bad happen to Naruto ? He loses Sasuke, he loses Gaara , he loses Jiraiya and now he loses his own village. Why was he cursed with his power ? Damn it " Sakura whined as she punches the ground in anger as she starts to cry.
" Sakura, everything will be fine . Naruto won't hurt anyone person ever again " Ino answered.
" Yep it seems that way. Danzō plans to seal away Naruto for the rest of his life " Yamato stated.
" Seal him away ? " Sakura asked.
" Naruto would never be a Ninja again, he'll be locked up in a secret prison guarded by ANBU in solitary confinement . He would never have any friends nor enjoy the life he had . In other words, Danzō plans to keep him as a tool of destruction and only free him when he needs him for battle "
" He can't do that , i won't let him ! " Sakura shouted as she rushes out to grab Naruto and hug him.
" Sakura, leave me alone. I'm done being a Ninja " Naruto said to Sakura.
" You're just going to give up so easily ? " Sakura asked.
" Look around you , i'm a monster whose a danger to everyone around me. Look at your arm, i did that out of rage. I can never bring back Sasuke if i end up killing him, i can't save Gaara if i end up killing him and if i can't control my power... Then i don't deserve to be a Ninja much less the Hokage " Naruto explained to Sakura.
" What about you Nindo , your Ninja way ? " Sakura questioned him.
" I'm not a Ninja, i'm a monster. I finally understood why people fear me, i'm just a walking nuclear bomb. I can't control this power within me, i would love to carry on my dreams but as long as i can't control this power and given how i killed innocent people... I can never face people as Hokage . A Hokage like me would be hated by the people and a hated Hokage is a weak Hokage " Naruto grimly stated as he mops about the lost of Jiraiya and his village.
" So you're just going to give up ? Are you just gonna run away ? Are you just going to go back on your word to Lady Chiyo ? " Sakura questioned as she thinks back to the past.
2 weeks ago
" There aren't as many girls as chivalrous as her has the potential to surpass her teacher as a female ninja " Chiyo said to Naruto " Naruto there is a request i have for you from an old woman " Chiyo said to Naruto.
" What is it ? " Naruto asked.
" You are the only one who can understand Gaara's pain and Gaara understands your pain. Please save Gaara..And please find Sasori and give him this " Chiyo said handing Naruto a piece of paper . "Give that to Sakura for i now would live on in her thoughts " Chiyo said to Naruto " I'm happy that someone like you has appeared in the world of Shinobi that we foolish old people created. Everything I've ever done was a mistake. But now, at the end, it looks like I'll finally be able to do the right thing. The Sand Village and Konoha. Their future will be much different from the way things were back in my day. That strange power of yours that Kakashi mentioned… That power will have a strong influence on the future. Become a Hokage like none before you " Chiyo said to me before all life fade from suddenly get back up slowly as the sun sets down to the sky.
Present Day
" I'm sorry Sakura, i'm completely useless as an Ninja and as a man. Neji was right about me, i was destined to fail " Naruto replied as he walks away with Danzō holding his shoulder.
" Naruto ! " Sakura shouted as she is overwhelmed from Naruto's despair.
Meanwhile Team Gai look at Naruto passing by and see him walk down the path of despair. Rock Lee is being held up by Gai but is awake.
" Is that Naruto ? " Lee asked.
" It looks like he's been defeated. He can't handle the fact he destroyed the village he loves " Gai answered in a sad tone.
" Poor Naruto, he must be suffering immense anxiety and despair " Tenten stated wiping her eyes of his tears.
" It can't be helped ! Naruto has really lost control, he need to be contained " Neji replied.
Meanwhile Shikamaru ,Chōji, Inoichi, Chōza and Shikaku watch Naruto walk down the path of shame.
" What's going on ? " Chōji asked.
" Naruto is being forced to walk the path of shame " Chōza answered.
" Danzō's exploiting the fact of Naruto blowing up the village to make himself look like a hero to the village " Shikaku stated.
"I t seems so, it seems a bit too much of a coincidence " Shikamaru replied.
" Do you think Danzō worked with the Shinigmai and secretly aided in the invasion so he can get the Hokage title ? " Inoichi asked.
" It seems so, it seems far too convenient that the Shinigmai started to retreat no sooner Danzō arrived " Chōza said to Shikaku.
" The Shinigmai had thousands of troops wheres Danzō only has 200. Even if we're considered Danzō's strength as a kage, there's no way he could've easily driven them away , especially given we sensed several Shinigmai with Kage level and Bijuu level Chakra " Inoichi stated.
" Anything is possible ! " Shikaku replied.
Meanwhile Naruto walks by team Kurenai and the Inuzuka clan members seeing Naruto walk down the path of shame.
" This is your fault my home was destroyed ! " Kiba shouted.
" Go back to hell where you belong ! " Tsume yelled as she throws a rock at Naruto's head.
" Calm down you two, yelling at him won't really solve anything " Kurenai stated.
" I agree, you guys are just making a scene ! " Shino replied.
Naruto then walks by Konohamaru's team to see his best friend walk down in despair.
" Naruto ! " Konohamaru shouted only to be stopped by Iruka.
" Don't interfere ! He's being taken somewhere safe where he can't harm anyone again " Iruka said to Konohamaru.
" This is bullshit, it's not his fault. It's those cursed Shinigmai who killed uncle Asuma and forced Naruto into turning into that monster " Konohamaru stated.
" Regardless what happens, it's too dangerous to let him set free " Ebisu replied.
" That fox kid shouldn't be a Ninja ! " one of the Shinobis shouted.
" What was the Third Hokage thinking letting him be a Ninja ? " another Shinobi shouted.
" Shut up, Naruto fought hard to protect us all " Konohamaru shouted at them.
Meanwhile Hinata stares at Naruto from a distance .
" Naruto! It can't be, you have given up. This can't be happening ... Why have you given up ? I used to always cry and give up… I made many wrong turns… But you… You helped me find the right path… I always chased after you… I wanted to catch up to you… Now it's time i help you gain back that resolve, your Ninja way . I'm done crying now that i'm a woman, i must be strong not only for you but for me as well " Hinata said to herself as she wipes the tears from her eyes as she watches Naruto head to the Hokage monument with Danzō.
Hinokoku Shihon ( 火の国の資本 Fire Country Capital )'
2:00 P.M. 200 miles southeast from Konoha. The Fire Daimyō has thousands of soldiers from the nations capital gather at the palace. The news about the destruction of Konoha has spread across the nation.
" We have been informed that Konoha was wiped out in a 200 Megaton explosion and much of the village has been buried within a massive crater " Fire Daimyō said to his men.
" What are the orders sir ? " one of the generals asked.
" Your job is to send emergency aid to the village in hand " the Fire Daimyō answered.
" Very well then, the supply trucks and horses should be ready " the general stated.
" Very well then , move out ! " the Fire Daimyō commanded.
" Right! " the general replied as he heads out with his men.
" Secretary, contact Konoha's ANBU and see if you can find Shikaku " the Fire Daimyō commanded.
" What for ? " the secretary asked.
" Tomorrow noon, i wish to speak to any of the survivors of the blast" the Fire Daimyō answered.
160 miles northeast of Konoha
3:00 P.M. Samui , Karui and Omoi are tired out from walking a full 3 days.
" Boy i'm tired out ! " Omoi said to his teammates.
" What ,tired out already ? It's only been 3 days " Karui asked him.
" I know but i'm pooped out ! " Omoi replied.
" I guess we can rest up within this small abandoned shack here, we still have a nights worth of food until morning , we can all rest here until tomorrow " Samui said to her team.
" We're close to reaching the Leaf Village, by noon tomorrow, we should be at the village " Karui stated.
" I'm just worried though ! " Omoi said to his colleagues.
" About what ? " Karui asked.
" About the Raikage. What if Lord Raikage is still crying and his tears are forming into a pond ,and then into a lake ? What if , by the time we return to the village, the place has become as humid as the Hidden Rain Village ? What'll we do then ? " Omoi asked over thinking things as usual.
" Huh ? That's impossible . Tears can't create a lake no matter how hard one tries " Karui answered.
" But we're talking about Lord Raikage. He has so much power, he can probably effortlessly create a lake of tears . Hell ,forget a lake, he could probably create an ocean of tears. We might get swallowed by that giant wave of tears . What would we do ? " Omoi asked over thinking things again.
" Shut up! Enough already, your imagination wears me out ! " Karui replied.
" I can understand Samui getting tired because she has 100 cm boobs and the weight of them can get straining but how does someone as flat-chested as you can get tired out " Omoi asked looking at their boobs .
" Shut up ! " Karui replied kicking Omoi 50 feet through a tree.
" Come on , you two, let's set up camp here ! " Samui said to the team.
Konoha
4:00 P.M. Konoha continue to rain in darkness as howling winds engulf the village . Shikaku stands on top of a telephone pole within the ruins of East Konoha.
" It's going to take a very long while to rebuild the structure of the village , we would be needing your help Yamato " Shikaku said to him.
" It's times like this, i wish i had the strength of a Kage. If i did, i could've rebuild this village like the first Hokage build Konoha " Yamato replied.
Outside the main gate a row of vehicles arrive that the site known as Konoha with 500 transport trucks carrying 3,750,000 gallons of water and 15,000 tons of food. 15,000 soldiers from the capital come to aid with the engineering process . Danzō then goes to talk with the general.
" Are you the one in charge ? " the general asked.
" Yes i am , how much food do you guys have ? " Danzō questioned.
" 15,000 tons ! " the general answered.
" That should be enough to last a few weeks , what about water ? " Danzō asked.
" 3,750,000 gallons ! " the general answered.
" So we have at least a weeks supply of freshwater , given Konoha river has been drained due to the flowing of water being cut off by the crater . We need to import the water " Danzō explained to them.
" We have already hired contractors to being reconstruction of this village " the general stated.
" Very well then , then we can begin fixing the ruins of this village " Danzō replied.
Meanwhile within the outer rim of the village , Izumo and Kotestu are collecting remaining timber to rebuild houses within the eastern Konoha sector.
" I found this nice piece of timber here ! " Kotestu stated as he feels on a large 10 foot long wooden beam .
" That's barely enough. Not a single building remains within this village and there's nothing left of what was built by generations of the Hokage " Izumo replied .
" Who could've imagined this would of happened ? " Kotestu asked.
" This village isn't the only thing the First Hokage left us " Genma answered.
" You're absolutely right ! " Yamato replied as he jumps on top of the building debris and then goes towards them.
" Captain Yamato ! " Kotestu said to him.
"We're all still here ! " Yamato replied as he does Dog → Ram and Snake handseals "Mokuton: Renchūka(木遁・連柱家の術Wood Style: Row Houses Jutsu) " Yamato chanted as he slams his hand on the ground and then creates 200 buildings within a 1,200 foot radius of him.
" Yeah ! " the other Shinobi cheered as they see 2 city blocks rebuilt.
" At this rate, Konoha will be rebuilt in no time ! " all the men cheered.
" Easy for you to say ! " Yamato replied as he pants from the severe exhaustion of using that Jutsu and collapses on the ground.
Everyone begins rebuilding the village , while morale is down in the village the heart of Konoha still pumps and the citizens remain strong.
Yamamoto's office
5:00 P.M. Kisuke talks with Yamamoto about the failure to capture Naruto but the success of wiping out the Village and it's power structure.
" It looks like our mission ended in total failure " Kisuke said to Yamamoto.
" It would seem so ! " Yamamoto replied.
" However Ichigo's outburst has benefited us greatly by ensuring that Konoha has been wiped off the map and the threat of their army to the Soul Society has been generated " Kisuke stated.
" But at a devastating cost, we lost 25% of our armed forces and we have hundreds of injured officers " Yamamoto explained to Kisuke .
" I doubt these Shinobi are really Hollows " Kisuke said to Yamamoto.
" What do you mean Kisuke ? " Yamamoto questioned.
" Our Dehollowfication bomb failed to work against the Shinobis. Something tells me either Aizen deceived us into thinking they were part Hollows or Aizen has been manipulating us into a war against the Shinobi and they really have no connections to Aizen " Kisuke explained to them.
" In either case, we are now stuck within a serious predicament . Kisuke i want you to investigate the connection between the Shinobi and Aizen further " Yamamoto stated.
" I'm afraid i can't do so in my current state , Yoruichi hasn't made a full recovery so sending her to get more Intel is too risky and with my own injuries, we'll just end up dead. We need a few days to recover and hopefully by then, the heat would die down enough for us to launch another investigation " Kisuke answered.
"I see, very well then. Something tells me we could face another crisis and demila like the Quinces . If that's the case, we would have to resort to the last ditch worst case scenario " Yamamoto stated.
" You don't mean ? " Kisuke asked.
" The total elimination of the Shinobi race and possibly that world " Yamamoto grimly answered.
" There's still the matter of Orihime's powers " Kisuke said to Yamamoto.
" I know what you mean, question is how did any human become this powerful ? " Yamamoto asked.
" That's a thing i still don't understand myself however this fluctuation of her powers seem to be done by her emotional state. When he friends were in trouble, she became powerful enough to stop the threat all by herself. In theory, her power surpasses even my own however this was brought out of her rage and sorrow. If we have the slightest chance of winning this war, we must not only understand Orihime's hidden powers but use them to our advantage and have Orihime master them. While she has the potential, she has no skill with it and i doubt the enemy would give her the chance to use her hidden powers " Kisuke explained to Yamamoto.
" What about Kurosaki ? " Yamamoto asked.
" The Vizards have it handled with him. Once Ichigo makes a full recovery, Ichigo would undergo a more advance training unlike anything he ever experienced in his life . Ichigo's powers themselves are vast enough to give us the edge in the war . His Hollowfication so far produced the desired results needed to be a formidable threat however at the cost of an entire city. If Ichigo can fully control that much power by his own will, then not even Sosuke Aizen could stop him " Kisuke stated.
" I see, very well then Kisuke. I leave things up to you then " Yamamoto replied as Kisuke walks out the room.
Konoha
6:00 P.M. Konoha is pitch black with thousands of tents around the crater and within the center of the crater while hundreds of trucks, tractors,bulldozers and horseback carriages are camped around the village. Yamato helped create 400 houses that are being used for basic utility and storing food supplies and occupying ninjas and soldiers in the village. Villagers managed to build 121 makeshift houses on their own around the outer rim of the village walls in East Konoha near the gate.
Winds blow around the village as darkness engulfs it. People are forced to ration food with each villager only getting one canned food for the night being disrupted by various Shinobi and soldiers wielding swords as well as crossbows.
Sakura and Shizune are within a hospital made by Yamato which holds several hundred injured villagers 300 feet west of the main gate. They are wearing no shoes when they stand by Tsunade who's in a coma for over using her Chakra in her battles with Yoruichi and Ukitake and sparring over 3/4's of the population in the village.
" Do you think Tsunade would make it out of this ? " Sakura asked Shizune.
" Don't worry Sakura, Lady Tsunade would definitely come back to us " Shizune answered.
" I hope so , if Danzō is as bad as you said he was , we're all in trouble " Sakura replied.
" Sakura, that strength you displayed back there was amazing " Shizune said to her pink haired student.
" That was Tsunade's power, not my own ! " Sakura replied.
" You don't get it ? You have Special Jōunin level Chakra, normally your power would be on par with my own however when your full power was unlocked by Katsuyu, it shot up even higher and you were able to damage the Kyuubi . Not even a combined assault of Ino-Shika-Cho could dent that Chakra skin of his . What's this power of yours that you have domain in you ? " Shizune asked Sakura.
" I don't know what happened but that's the least of my worries " Sakura answered as she looks down on the floor.
" What's wrong Sakura ? " Shizune asked her.
" It's Naruto! I never saw him so sad before , he even said he wanted to give up being a ninja " Sakura explained to Shizune.
" This is bad ! Naruto must be taking the destruction of the village the hardest,after all he blames himself for the event caused by his Kyuubi " Shizune stated.
" It's not fair he has to go through so much suffering, those damn Shinigmai would pay for what they did to him ! " Sakura shouted.
" Calm down Sakura ! " Shizune said to her.
" No, it's not fair . Naruto is being treated like shit, i must do something to snap him back to his senses " Sakura stated as she goes to see Naruto but Sai appears with his left arm gone from Orihime's attack.
" I have dinner for you ! " Sai said to them holding a basket of food with his only arm.
" Sai, what happened with your arm ? " Sakura asked him.
" I lost it when Danzō ordered us to take down a Shinigmai camp and forced them to submit , i lost my left arm in the " Sai explained to Sakura.
" I'll see what i can do for you ! " Sakura replied as she heals Sai's arm but nothing is happening.
" What the hell ? It's not healing ! " Shizune asked shocked to see it fail.
" Maybe i'm just too hungry to heal right, let's have some dinner " Sakura said to her teammates.
" Very well then ! " Shizune and Sai replied as they go to eat their food.
Meanwhile Kiba and his team are eating dinner within a campfire area heating up the beans they were given.
" This sucks big time ! We lost Konoha to those Shinigmai bastards " Kiba stated as he eats his rice and beans.
" Has anyone seen Hinata lately ? " Shino asked.
" I had her fetch us some water some time ago " Kurenai answered.
" It's going to be hard finding water now that Konoha river is dried up and within the crater " Tsume stated.
" Still we have plenty of water given to us by the government from the Land of Fire capital " Kiba said to his team.
" I sent her out to get bathing water and some more firewood , still it shouldn't take her this long to get it " Kurenai replied as they eat their food.
Meanwhile Danzō talks with one of his men.
" Is the Nine Tails contained properly ? " Danzō asked.
" Yes, we got him encased within the special cell that is sealing his Tailed Beast Chakra using the seal on his body " his man answered.
" Good, he's well protected against anyone who would try to take him. No one knows the true location of this area and only members of Root are allowed to visit his cell with the special encryption key " Danzō stated.
" Looks like he's not going to escape from there ! " the guard replied.
Meanwhile at the Underground Root Base
An Root Guard walks by the cell Naruto is within . Naruto is chained to the wall with Chakra chains binding him to the wall and he's wearing no shirt exposing his Eight Trigrams Seal. The hidden base is within the depths of the Hokage Monument.
" I don't deserve to be an Ninja , i'm a monster who's a danger to everyone around me. I can never bring back Sasuke if i end up killing him, i can't save Gaara if i end up killing him and if i can't control my power... Then i don't deserve to be a Ninja much less the Hokage . I finally understood why people fear me, i'm just a walking nuclear bomb. I can't control this power within me, i would love to carry on my dreams but as long as i can't control this power and given how i killed innocent people... I can never face people as Hokage . A Hokage like me would be hated by the people and a hated Hokage is a weak Hokage " Naruto said to himself as he mops about the lost of Jiraiya and his village.
" Naruto ! " said the Root guard with a light female voice.
" Who are you ? " Naruto asked.
" It's me Naruto ! " the Root guard answered as she removes her cloak and mask revealing she has dark blue waist-length hair sporting a slender, and noticeably curvaceous frame and massive boobs .
" Hinata ? What are you doing here ? " Naruto asked her.
" I came here to give you some food ! " Hinata answered as she gives Naruto a rice ball as she unlocks the chains.
" Thanks for the food but i'm not hungry ! " Naruto replied as he hands back the riceball.
" Naruto, do you have any idea the trouble had to go through to get you the riceball and this ANBU oufit ? " Hinata asked.
" How did you get that outfit ? " Naruto questioned.
" I found this outfit lying around within the enemy campground. The soldier was already dead from battle but his body was intact despite the massive explosion while i was looking for firewood. I then stole the access keycard and i came here to talk with you " Hinata explained to Naruto.
" What do you want to say to me ? " Naruto asked.
" Naruto, don't give up on being a Ninja " Hinata answered.
" But Hinata i'm a monster ! " Naruto stated.
" No you are not , your possibly the kindest guy i know. I know you have a demon within you but i don't care , you are the true hope to the world " Hinata replied.
" But i blew up the village i loved the most " Naruto said to Hinata.
" No you didn't, it was those damn Shinigmai bastards who did it. You were forced to transform into that evil power within you, don't let the people discourage you from your dreams of becoming Hokage . Naruto you are a hero no matter what " Hinata stated as she grabs his shoulder.
" But Hinata i... " Naruto replied but is smacked in the face by Hinata.
" Don't listen to the people who fear you! Snap out if it ! Jiraiya sensei gave his life so you can grow up to save this world, are you just going to give up because of that damned Tailed Beast ? I won't let you lose that Ninja Way.. the Ninja way you gave me Naruto " Hinata shouted at Naruto.
" Why do you defend me ? " Naruto asked her.
" Because Naruto, you helped me greatly in the past " Hinata answered .
" How did i help you ? " Naruto questioned.
" I've been watching you, I've been watching you closely for many years now. I wonder why. I don't know why but… When I watch you Naruto, I feel full of courage… I feel like I can keep going, that I can succeed. That even I am worth something" Hinata explained to Naruto.
"I see, you really do care for me do you Hinata ? " Naruto asked her.
" You have no idea, i was shy and nervous to be near you though. I wasn't afraid of you or the demon, i was afraid that you might not like me but no more . I'm done with my shyness.. at least when i'm around you Naruto " Hinata explained to Naruto as she goes to hug him.
" What's this feeling i'm getting ? I never felt it before , it's as if a piece of my soul was just suddenly reconnected . Her hug feels warm and gentle... Could it that i might be... " Naruto said to himself as he starts to blush.
" You made mistakes… but… because of those mistakes… you got the strength to stand up to them… that's why I think you are truly strong . I used to always cry and give up… I made many wrong turns… But you… You helped me find the right path… I always chased after you… I wanted to catch up to you… I wanted to walk beside you all the time… I just wanted to be with you… You changed me! Your smile is what saved me! That is why I'm not afraid of you... and i'll be damned if i'll let you lost hope " Hinata stated as she kisses Naruto on the check. Naruto grabs her face and kisses her back on the check.
" Hinata ! Thank you ! I feel like a fool for almost giving up my Ninja way because of this stupid fox in me... knowing that rotten bastard, that's what he wants me to do. To stay a bitter bastard alone without my friends until i grow to hate humanity and then i become a tool of destruction... Much like Ichigo Kurosaki. Once grandma Tsunade wakes up and gets me out of here, i'll train to get stronger so i don't need my stupid fox .. then i'll become Hokage and carry out pevry sage's dream of achieving peace in the Ninja world " Naruto said to Hinata as he gets over the depression and goes back to his usual self.
" Naruto! I... " Hinata replied but before she can finish her sentence,she hears guards coming down to check on Naruto.
" Hinata, you need to get going ! " Naruto said to her.
" Naruto! I'll keep visiting you everyday until you're free from here " Hinata stated.
" You mean that ? " Naruto asked.
" Of course because Naruto , i will never go back on my word, because that too is my nindō, my ninja way! " Hinata replied as she puts on an ANBU mask and Root cloak and heads out of the cell and lock it up but before she can leave Naruto says his last words.
" Hinata, yo have no idea what you just did ! Your words have saved me for committing the biggest mistake in my life . For that, i'm forever in your debt and i would do whatever it takes to make up for the hope you have just given me . When i become Hokage, you would be my assistant, my bodyguard and whatever you want to be with me .. that's a promise i tend to keep " Naruto said to Hinata as Hinata opens the cell once more to hug Naruto.
" I'll take your word for it Naruto ! " Hinata replied as they both hugged only to hear Root coming closer.
" They're coming ! " Naruto said to Hinata .
Two Root members come towards Hinata but Hinata hands over the rice ball to Naruto and he eats it.
" What are you doing here ? " one of the Root members asked.
" Just handing him his food ! " Hinata answered making her voice sound like a burly man .
" We were going to do that ourselves, i guess you beat us to it once again uhh..who are you again ? " one of the Root members asked.
Hinata quickly remembers the name on the card of the ANBU soldier that was found dead and says the name.
" Tera ! " Hinata answered.
" Very well then, we'll re chain him, you get going " the men said to Hinata in disguise.
" Okay ! " Hinata replied as she leaves the area .
" Thank you Hinata ! " Naruto said to himself as he's chained up to the wall again.
Sōgō Kyūgo Tsumesho
7:00 P.M. Ichigo wakes up within his entire body covered in bandages except his face and wearing no shirt or pants covered only by the bandages and blanket on his body.
" What the hell happened ? Why am i naked " Ichigo asked himself.
" You're finally awake Ichigo ! " Unohana said to Ichigo.
" Captain Unohana,any reason why my clothes are off ? " Ichigo asked her.
" Your body was in terrible shape, it took me hours without my Reiatsu to heal you up " Unohana answered.
" What do you mean in bad shape ? " Ichigo asked as he tries to get up but he feels stinging pain " ARRGH ! " Ichigo shouted in pain as he wakes up Orihime.
" Ichigo ! " Orihime shouted as she wakes up from her sleep and hugs Ichigo but Unohana lightly pushes Orihime off.
" I'm afraid his body is still recovering from the shock done to his Saketsu (鎖結, Binding Chain) and Hakusui (魄睡, Soul Sleep) as well as his entire Reitekina Junkankei( 霊的な循環系、Spiritual Circulatory System ). His body is still recovering from the pain of having every cell of his body violently ruptured then reformed by his Inner Hollow" Unohana said to Orihime.
" Reitekina Junkankei ? " Ichigo asked.
" It's like the Chakra pathway system in living begins. We also have one enmeshed into the body and like blood vessels it touches and interacts with every single living cell and passes through every organ. Reiryoku is flowed through the body like blood. There are 361 points in the body like the Chakra points in a human body but the most vital point is the Saketsu (鎖結, Binding Chain) and Hakusui (魄睡, Soul Sleep) near the heart " Unohana explained to Ichigo.
" Damn it, it must of been that attack from the Nine Tails, it hurts like hell " Ichigo stated as he feels the pain around his body.
" This must be your second time having your Saketsu (鎖結, Binding Chain) and Hakusui (魄睡, Soul Sleep) damaged except the damage was on a far larger scale . It's a miracle you even survived that assault, any Shinigmai would of died instantly if they took a direct attack of that power, had not for the Hollow Powers infused within your being, you would've died from the attack " Unohana explained to Ichigo as she unwraps the bandages on Ichigo's right hand to reveal his hand has dozens of needle like holes in his arm.
" What the hell is that ? They look like mosquito bites but each hole seems to cut through the bone " Ichigo asked Unohana.
" Those were holes that your Reiatsu was caused by the attack you were hit by, causing acupuncture wound across your whole body. Your Inner Hollow is slowly recovering the wounds you suffered, in short you can't fight right now " Unohana explained to Ichigo.
" Is he going to be alright ! " Orihime asked.
" He'll be fine provided he avoids fighting for a full week ! If he strains his body while it's in the recovering stages , he might become a full Hollow again and that won't be good for the Soul Society and Karakura Town, we don't need another Konoha debacle " Unohana answered.
" What do you mean debacle ? " Ichigo asked Unohana .
" When you were hit by that attack, your body went into a comatose state due to the massive shock to your organs. All your organs including your heart were instantly ruptured however your Hollow managed to heal all your wounds, something that not even Espada level Arrancars are capable of doing but at a cost ,you became a monster " Unohana said to Ichigo.
" What do you mean ? You're saying that i killed innocent people ? " Ichigo shouted.
" Sadly yes, you were successful in defeating the Nine Tails and forcing it to retreat however at the cost of blowing up the entire village " Unohana explained to him.
" This can't be ! No, i can't believe it . Why, why WHY ? " Ichigo shouted as he punches the bed only to hurt himself.
" Don't blame yourself Ichigo, you had no choice but to use that form " Orihime stated.
" Now i understood what Shinji said to me , if i didn't control my power, then everything around me would be destroyed. I took his training too lightly and i almost killed my friends because of my weakness " Ichigo said to them.
" Calm down Ichigo ! " Unohana said to him.
" I'm a monster, i can't forgive myself for what i done . I killed innocent people, i'm not strong enough to be a Shinigmai . I was trying to defeat Shinobi, not wipe out everything out of existence. I really suck at this , i should detained for what i did . I don't deserve to wield this blade " Ichigo stated as he's able to throw his Shikai in the trash only for Orihime to grab him.
" Everything is going to be alright ! " Orihime said to Ichigo.
" No it's not, my inner Hollow ... " Ichigo stated before being cut off by Orihime.
" Has been suppressed for the time being thanks to me as well as Kisuke and friends " Orihime replied.
" Orihime, you sealed my Hollow ? " Ichigo asked.
" Had not for Orihime here , you would've killed all your friends " Unohana said to Ichigo.
" Orihime ? " Ichigo asked.
" My powers went out of control for a while and i was given enough strength to seal back the Hollow inside you however my Shun Shun Rikka has been sealed away because i used all my strength to combat your Hollow form and i can't reactivate my powers for 3 days " Orihime explained to Ichigo.
" You sealed my Hollow back into my body ? I thought Kisuke did that " Ichigo asked Orihime.
" He was going to but you caught him by surprise. Kisuke fought in his Bankai state and lost to your inner Hollow, at that moment i gained a increase of my power however i almost lost mind as well and almost killed you " Orihime stated.
" You did all that by yourself ? How powerful are you ? " Ichigo asked Orihime.
" I don't know, i don't know anything anymore. It just seems like you and me both have an inner power that we can't control Ichigo, my power seeks to protect my friends but also forces me to kill and take lives which is something i oppose doing and your power corrupts you to not being able to distinguish friend from foe . It seems in the end we are both monsters but we must control the powers within so we can help protect our friends without losing the very things we believe in " Orihime answered explaining to Ichigo their powers.
" I see, well in that case i must get stronger and make sure that this shit never happens again " Ichigo stated.
" Don't worry Ichigo, i'll be there to protect you as long as you protect me as well " Orihime replied. as she hugs Ichigo.
" Orihime,i knew you were a strong woman but i never thought you had so much inner strength. You helped me conquer my Hollow and saved my friends when i couldn't do so. I also thank you Orihime for bringing me back to life as well as Chad and Uryū " Ichigo said to Orihime as he hugs her.
" Ichigo ! " Orihime replied with a moan as she hugs him back.
" My wounds aren't hurting me as i hug her, if anything i feel myself feeling better all together as if an weight has been lifted off my shoulders. What is this feeling inside me ? " Ichigo said to himself as he holds on to Orihime.
" Ichigo is so warm and soft, is this how it feels when one finds a part of their soul ? " Orihime said to herself as they look into each others eyes.
" Orihime ! " Ichigo said to Orihime .
" Ichigo ! " Orihime replied as they get closer to each other but Ichigo then feels a surge of pain in his body.
" ARRGH ! " Ichigo shouted in pain as he falls onto the bed .
" Don't over exert your body, you two need rest from all this fighting " Unohana said to them.
" Sorry about that ! " Ichigo replied as he lies down on the bed while Orihime returns to her own bed.
" You two would be brought back to the world of the living first thing in the normal by 6:00 A.M., you and Orihime would spend the week waiting for your powers to recover naturally and once you have recovered,you would resume your training " Unohana said to them.
" Wouldn't sending me to the world of the living be a bad idea ? What if my inner Hollow takes me over ? " Ichigo asked her.
" You'll be fine, if anything it's best you stay in human form for a full week . Your Inner Hollow could only process you if you are in Soul From but given you're a normal human in your human form, he can't draw any power from you and therefore is incapable of dominating you " Unohana explained to them.
" Chad and Uryū are still in recovery, what if a Hollow attacks us ? " Orihime asked.
" Don't worry, i'll arrange a security team to protect you from Hollow attacks. Just worry about making up any time with your friends "Unohana answered.
" Very well then , i look forward to see my friends again ! " Ichigo replied.
" Eat up and get plenty of rest, you need to leave here by 5:30 A.M. " Unohana stated.
" Very well then ! " Orihime and Ichigo replied.
The Next day
Tuesday September 25,2001 Midnight
Las Noches
Aizen gathers the Espada to talk with the Akatsuki and their leader. All 10 Espada walk into the conference room to talk with the Akatsuki.
"Looks like we finally finished sealing those damned Tailed Beasts " Nnoitra stated with his hands behind his head.
" Great , that was becoming annoying as hell " Barragan replied.
" What's wrong old man, you're too old to handle it grandpa ? " Hidan taunted while in silhouette form.
" What was that ? How dare you mock me ? " Barragan shouted.
" Guys relax, we did well today ! " Dordoni stated.
" Yeah can't we just sleep ? I haven't slept in 36 hours " Stark complained.
" All you do is sleep all day, seriously man see a today " Kisame taunted.
" Shut up , i got a goddamn headache having to seal these stupid Tailed Beasts " Grimmjow growled.
" Nobody cares about your goddamn problems Grimmjow " Nnoitra replied.
" Shut up or you would be missing some of those buck teeth of yours " Grimmjow stated.
" Please , like you're capable of piercing my skin. My skin is the strongest here " Nnoitra replied.
" Was the strongest ! " Kakuzu stated.
" What was that ? " Nnoitra shouted.
" Want to make a wager who has the toughest skin ? " Kakuzu asked.
" Ah goddamn Kakuzu, stop doing that stupid money shit. It makes me sick " Hidan shouted.
" Nobody cares about your dumbass religious beliefs ! " Kakuzu replied.
" Yeah quit preaching your mumbo jumbo to us you primitive sub-human trash " Szayel said to Hidan
" Want a fight fag ? Lord Jashin hates queers like you " Hidan shouted.
" Quit your childish bickering, you all look like children " Itachi said to everyone.
" Fuck you asshole ! Who made you king of this place ? " Deidara shouted.
" I never said anything about being king " Itachi answered.
" Yeah i don't think a mere human could ever equal the King of Hollows " Barragan boasted.
" Former king of Hollows ! " Itachi replied.
" Hey emo bitch, you're looking at the future King of Hollows right here " Grimmjow bragged.
" If you're the king of Hollows then Hueco Mundo is doomed " Ulquorria stated.
" Fuck you Ulquorria, you're going to be my slave when i take over this joint " Grimmjow stated.
" Please, you can't beat Ulquorria in a million years " Yammy replied.
" Still sucking your emo fag's lovers dick ? Then again that's all you can comprehend " Deidara said to Yammy.
" Why you puny little runt, you see these muscles ? I'll flatten you with then if you don't shut up " Yammy shouted.
" Are you kidding me? You can never reach true art with just muscle much less comprehend true art " Deidara replied.
" True art ? Please art that blows up isn't true art . What's true art is puppets, puppets that can last forever " Sasori said to Deidara.
" Yeah go play with yourself with your puppets ! " Deiara replied.
"What was that ? " Sasori shouted.
Meanwhile Konan and Harribel are calmly drinking tea together.
" Men ! " Konan said to Harribel.
" What a bunch of fools they turn out to be " Harribel replied.
Pein and Aizen walk into the room together to discuss business together .
" Enough, all of you behave yourselves right now " Pein commanded.
" We're here to talk about your business " Aizen stated.
" So what is the news you have ? " Itachi asked .
" Konohagakure has been wiped off the map by the Gotei 13 " Pein answered.
Everyone was shocked by the news but the person most shocked by it was Itachi.
" Something wrong Itachi ? " Kisame asked.
" It's nothing, it's just my illness again " Itachi calmly answered as a tear of blood drips down his face before a real tear comes down.
" You're telling me we didn't get to see a village blow up ? What bullshit is that " Deidara shouted.
" Are there any survivors ? " Sasori asked.
" Yes, thanks to the Hokage's efforts, 75% of the population survived the explosion " Aizen answered.
" What about the status on Ichigo Kurosaki and the Nine Tails ? " Ulquiorra questioned.
" Both are being contained in a safe zone . Ichigo Kurosaki is going to be heavily monitored by the Soul Society and sent to the Word of the Living to recover his wounds in human form and his inner Hollow will be suppressed in his body. Naruto on the other hand has been obtained and put in a cell by Root and monitored for the rest of his life " Pein explained to them.
" What is the plan ? " Harribel asked.
" In 3 days after everyone has recovered , the Akatsuki would invade Karakura Town and the Espada would invade the ruins of Konoha . The goal is to capture both Naruto and Ichigo and destroy anything in you path. Help feed the growing flames of hatred between the Shinobi and the Shinigmai. Once this happens, we would make our final move and rule both worlds " Aizen explained his plan to everyone .
" Very well then ! " Itachi replied wiping the bloody tear in his eye.
" Sounds good to me . Hopefully i'll be the one who rules Hueco Mundo while Aizen and Madara rule both the Soul Society and the Shinobi world " Grimmjow replied.
" I won't mind sharing the world with you as long as i get the money ! " Kakuzu stated.
" With the world under our control, i can force people into worshiping Jashin ! " Hidan laughed.
" Not to mention all the potential research i'll gain by having both worlds " Szayel replied with a creepy smile.
" I don't care who rules the world as long as i get to show the world my beautiful art as i blow up their cities " Deidara laughed like a manic.
" Finally, i can have something that my Hollow army could fight instead of being the king of nothingness " Barragan stated.
" Hopefully i can get some sleep in this new world, probably get the most comfortable bed in both worlds " Stark replied.
" I can to be the king of Dangos, i can eat as much Dangos as possible " Tobi cheerfully stated.
" Once we take over the world, i 'll make all women my pets " Nnoitra replied.
" Once the world is ours, i'll add at least 100 Shinigmai puppets and use their strongest Shinigmai with the Third Kazekage puppet " Sasori said to everyone.
" All i care about is protecting my Fracción " Harribel stated.
" I simply wish to follow the rule of God ! " Konan replied looking at Pain.
" I wish to live in a word without lies ! " Kisame replied.
" It seems you're ideals are respectable, i wish to live in a word where justice is served " Tōusen replied.
" I wish to live in a world where it's always fun " Gin stated as he comes into the room with Tōusen.
" It seems we're on board now ? Great, let's continue to work together so we can bring change to both worlds " Aizen stated as they all cheered for Aizen. Everyone except Itachi who walks away.
" Where are you going ? " Kisame asked.
" I'm going to bed, i'm too tired out from the sealing of the Tailed Beast " Itachi answered.
" Boy you look terrible as if you got hit by a train, it must be your illness again " Kisame stated.
" Yes, i have a rather lingering illness around me at the moment. I need some medicine to delay the effects as much as possible " Itachi replied as he looks away and walks away as if he was feeling more depressed than sick.
Amegakure
2:00 A.M. Aizen arrives within a major city in the Shinobi world where he goes on top of a building with a balcony consisting of a large metal face with its tongue sticking out which looks out over the city . Aizen then meets Madara who is standing on the tongue.
" Everything is going according to Plan " Aizen says to the mysterious man in the cloak.
" It's been 3 weeks since we met Aizen and i must say your tactics are genius " Madara replied.
" I must say you're not bad yourself " Aizen said to Madara.
" With Konoha destroyed, the Shinobi's hatred for the Soul Society has increased " Madara stated.
" And with half the Gotei 13 weakened, it's only a matter of time before Yamamoto becomes more extreme and history would repeat itself , much like that dreaded Quincy War " Aizen replied .
" Question is , what about Orihime Inoue ? " Madara asked.
" Don't worry, we'll get her and given her level of power , we have this war won " Aizen answered.
" Her level of power could one day surpass even the Path of Six Sages , in her current state, she might have even more power than Pein " Madara stated.
" Don't worry, in her current state ,she doesn't know how to use her powers to the fullest extent . She's about as powerful as a Menos Grande because of her gentle nature but once we unlock the darkness in her heart, no one could stop us " Aizen explained to Madara.
" And then both words would be ours ! " Madara replied.

Over 8 hours have passed since the invasion began , 410 Shinigmai were injured in the fight leaving only 1,180 active Shinigmai and a severely weakened and exhausted medical division. The Gotei 13 face the largest loss of Shinigmai in the last 2000 years as then now have to face the threat of other Shinobi Nations and eventually the Arrancar army however with Orihime and Ichigo on their side, they might pull it off .
Konoha might of lost the battle between the Shinigmai and Shinobi however the war is far from over as Danzō plans to rebuild Konoha and also plans to get Orochimaru on his side to form an alliance that could no doubt be a threat to the Soul Society. Even more imposing is the upcoming 5 Kage Summit in which the Kages plan to join forces with each other to take the down the Soul Society.
Can the Soul Society uncover the conspiracy of the Akatsuki and Espada in time or would the Soul Society be wiped out by the combined assault of the Shinobi Nations ? Can anyone stop the combined power of Aizen and Madara and the growing power of the new alliance ?
