Naruko Uzumaki walked for days until arriving at the village. She suddenly stopped when she began to hear mechanic sounds, and began to sneak around to avoid being seen. Watching from behind bushes, she noticed an altar being constructed around a piece of dry land that used to be where the village was. And the workers around her, that she thought to be robots, weren't robots at all. They were cyborgs, with sharingans and black hair.
She also noticed several people dressed in black cloaks with red clouds patterns on it. She almost yelled when she saw Kurumu, calmly eating ice cream with some mysterious man with green hair.
She managed to sneak well behind Tobi, with only a few fragile wooden boxes separating one from another, and then attacked, using her wind jutsu to cut through the boxed and presumably through him but , to her shock, Tobi was unscathed, and then she felt a hand grabbing her with force by the neck.
"Naruko Uzumaki. Smart, but not so much. Thought you could sneak on the... Jesus, why are you smelling so badly? Couldn't you have whored herself for a bath?"
"She is wearing animal clothes Kisame. She clearly hasn't seen men of any kind in months. I guess that's what happens to people who have no place to go, right? Anyway, how did you know who I was?"
"Ichigo told me about you".
"He should have also told you you could never touch me. Anyway...Kisame, break her arms and legs".
Kisame did it without questioning. Her screams echoed through the air, but nobody around minded her much.
"Now, Naruko Uzumaki, this is gonna be fun to say. But I have no necessity of killing you. In fact..."
Tobi noticed three shadows appearing in front of his vision. Three shadows, and one of them was wearing a mask like him. Turning around in awe, he screamed at the three people covered in blood like a father to a disobedient child.
"You...How the hell are you three alive? Azrael should have...!"
"Drowned below a sea of papers and bombs, that's what happened to him" said the other Tobi, that had an missing arm. "Nice work you have done there." said the alternate masked man, looking around. "I wished I had done it myself, my dear...Tobi".
Naruko looked at the first masked man in shock. "That was the Tobi that woman from that day was talking about?"
"Now, tell me, what are you guys? And why that jackass there have my face!?" said the Kakuzu with Tobi, pointing to the other Kakuzu.
"Urgh. I'm annoyed of you. Hazama, tell your puppet to get rid of them!" said the non-bleeding Tobi.
Hazama clapped his hands. And suddenly the same woman Naruko saw months ago emerged from thin air to attack the bloodied Akatsuki.
Konan threw paper shurikens at her, that exploded, but she flew out of the explosion unharmed, but with lightning-like marks all over her body.
She tried to cut Konan head off with a quick attack, but Tobi touched Konan and she passed over Konan like she they had fused together, only to look around confused, not understand how she missed her target.
The bleeding Kakuzu takes the opportunity to punch her in the head straight to the ground as he jumped on her from behind, and his tentacles penetrated through her back to take her heart.
"You're not much better than us. Konan is wounded and she let your best warrior wounded." said the bleeding Tobi.
"This war isn't won through fairness. You are dumb to come here wounded. You have no allies, I'm sure Azrael finished them off" screamed the other one, angry.
"Why, why do you seek to destroy us? What threat did we represent to you?"
"You would have attacked us first. It's simple like that. Haven't we both attacked the Leaf Village for no reason?".
"I had a very good reason".
"Oh really, so let me hear it."
"I wanted to see everything Kushina love die.."
"Oh yeah, so...What? What stupid reasoning is that? What reason...Good lord, you developed feelings of love for that disgusting being? She is probably taking five different dicks in her pussy right now! She's a whore!"
"Hmmmm..."
"Actually, I understand your ignorance. Minato always seemed to have complete control of the madness. Anyway, it doesn't matter, you will die".
"No, you are refusing to give me an answer. You have a secret, a secret that if someone knew would ruin everything".
"I said you would have attacked fir..."
"No, I would make an Alliance! I fought for my clan, I fought for Akatsuki! You, you people, are fighting for themselves, aren't you!? How many of your allies will you destroy through your plans?"
The future Konan turned her head away.
Bleeding Kakuzu threw the Noel's clone body away. "I don't understand how this thing burned the Leaf one year ago. It's so weak, it went down in one hit".
The other Kakuzu laughed. "That's because the core of it is disintegrating since the moment of his creation. This thing was made of a tree containing the soul of a extremely powerful demigod. The problem is, the demigod was transformed into a tree after dying. So its existence was expected to be temporary. So thank you for disposing of the trash, but the heart you absorbed will likely last maybe some weeks, and isn't much more powerful than your average jounin".
Kakuzu turned back.
"Either way, you may want to attack now. We're certainly going with the objective of killing you people"
Ten grunts were heard the same time.
Past Tobi looked around.
"What's the problem?"
"There's a 90% chance someone like us will die fighting your past self. That's why we sent Azrael, remember? I...don't feel like doing this" said Itachi.
Five minutes passed. The past Kakuzu kept looking around, expecting any attack to counter it.
Finally, Sasori yelled.
"Fine I'll do it myself!"
Sasori pulled out scrolls of his sleeves to summon his puppets.
Deidara smiled. He doubted Sasori had any strategy, he was just in a hurry to finish things.
The five puppets Sasori summoned all had the same humanoid format and model, but had blades on their hands.
Sasori made them fly in the air to hit past Tobi and Konan. Naturally their blades flew past them, but then, just as they were retreating, Sasori made them advance ahead, but they passed through them. Sasori quickly took them all the way back to him, realizing his strategy had failed.
"Nice strategy. But I'm not a dumbass. The Itachi of this universe warned me of it".
Future Tobi turned around to future Itachi and cursed him. "Damn you kid".
"I did the same for you, I warned you of the same thing. Why are your surprised?"
After that, two people suddenly appeared behind past Akatsukis, sweaty as hell. Naruko recognized them.
"Humph, humph, mom, we failed. I only managed to take his arm" said the girl with blue hair towards the other blue-haired older woman.
Sasuke looked at Yukito in confusion. "Wait, what? Why we are here Yukito? I thought these rings would help us in defeating this future Akatsuki you're talking about".
Kakuzu laughed. Both of them. One genuinely nervous, the other being genuinely cruel.
"The rings. The rings, of course. It doesn't matter if we are alive or dead, all it matters is if you get the goddamn rings!" said the bleeding Kakuzu.
Sasuke tried to talk to Yukito, but she suddenly moved in front of him and punched him in the gut.
The bloody Kakuzu didn't even need to hear Tobi giving orders, he already knew what to do. He ran towards Yukito, with the bleeding Tobi and Konan following him from behind.
A blade fell from Yukito's long sleeve to her hand, while the other Tobi and the other Itachi moved to grab her rings before the members of the present time Akatsuki interfered.
Suddenly, there were 5 bodies in front of Yukiko. She moved to attack Kakuzu in the head, releasing her blade and let it fly through his head.
The same didn't happen to the bloody Konan and Tobi, that were touching each other. But then the other Tobi had made himself solid to grab the bleeding one, and the blade went through his forehead, killing him almost instantly.
Kakuzu screamed "damn it" while grabbing his eye. "I'm half-blinded!"
Yukito jumped away and began to cry.
"This is so wrong! This is all wrong! I love him! I don't want his world to be destroyed so we can live in a happy one mom!" she yelled in the direction of the other Konan.
The living Tobi raised his eyebrow, while turning around to see the corpse of the other one. "You did this intentionally!?"
"I know hitting Kakuzu in the head doesn't kill him" said her between tears.
Deidara shook his shoulders. "Well, I was planning to make my personal universe suffer a Big Bang over and over again, but oh well".
"Urgh, we should have gone to before Fugaku was born and killed him! His lineage is a pain the ass in both ways!" yelled Sasori.
Nobody really was lamenting the other Tobi's death. Hazama, however, was slowly planning what to do next while the others discussed.
"We burned thousands, we destroyed two villages, we can't go back on the plan!" insisted Sasori.
"Ok, then fight the boss that is alive then. He said only his Sharingan could make the machine work" said Kisame.
Hazama slowly clapped, interrupting everyone.
"Well boys? What an unfortunate situation, eh? Our boss, the guy who so bravely rescued my from my fate and made me help all of you in your plan to destroy the Multiverse so each and everyone with a ring could create their own world for themselves is dead! And oh, it seems we need someone with a sharingan similar to me to execute the plan, but I doubt this Tobi will help! We're doomed right? Well, I actually have a back-up!"
"What you're talking about, vermin!?" yelled Deidara, already scratching his own fingers out of nervousness.
"What I mean is...Inferno, burn. Everything. Down".
Everybody looked around. Deidara was faster though. A spider bomb was already sneaking behind Hazama while he spoke without interruption for 20 seconds.
And then exploded, at the same time a giant portal opened in the sky and the body of the dead Tobi was covered by a weird darkness.
Kurumu's eyes changed color, from green to purple, and she looked around confused as a opening on the sky began to emanate a red light.
The dead Tobi stood up. A dark aura involved him, like a mist of smoke, and his eyes shined on the middle of the darkness. Finally, his voice was like thunder, striking fear even on Sasori's heart.
"Your. Humans. Are. Nothing. But. Toys. I. Am. The. God. Of. War. I am the nightmare inside your heads. Ragna the Bloodedge destroyed a body, but gods. Are. Immortal. I. Feed. On. Your. Blood. I. Am. Soul. Edge. I am Susanoo!"
The landscape suddenly changed. It was like before, when other universes fused, but much stronger. The universe was becoming chaotic.
Inside the ship the Akatsuki of the future used to travel to the past, Ichigo was still buried inside the tube filled with red liquid. But the chaos that Susanoo imposed over the world was making the glass wall slowly. Crack.
