Blame the Demons That Raised Me

Chapter 14: Dark Sorcerer / A Sinful Beauty

During Ch13 but focusing on the Overclone and the beautiful Noemi.

~Mortis's Mana Cave~

"Now young lord, you have mastered transformation, teleportation, demon summoning, and the two variants of mind control. I believe you are indeed ready for the next form of dark magic. This magic is truly evil and is formed from malice, something you have a lot of lord. There are many different types some are incantations others require certain items to be procured but the kind I want you to focus on is special for your path of domination if you so choose."-Mortis

"Hmm that means there's a destruction choice too isn't there?"-The Overclone said with his arms over his chest.

"Indeed, there is, but it will be a bit weaker than it normally would be since you are leaning towards domination. A dark spell for you to learn and have fun with the 1,000 Wrathful Days, it's a simple incantation with deadly results. This spell takes two people, preferably those who know each other, and puts them through 1,000 Days where they experience true hell."

"Cool, how's it done?"

"There is a basic formula but it is able to be changed based on the situation. The last line of the incantation must be this 'Let 1,000 words and 1,000 actions war against each other within your minds.' What you add beforehand is up to you. Saying these words is not enough though, the other part of the spell is to put the heads of your victims together, no matter how rough or gentle."

"So, this spell is to be used on two different people huh?"

"I suppose you can use this spell on yourself and your victim, giving yourself 1,000 ways to torture your victim."

"Hmm cool but doing 1,000 things sounds pretty exhausting."

"It can be if you are with the other person but if it's used against two other people you can release their heads before contact and the spell should work without any extra work on your part. I believe you know enough to practice it lord."

"Alright." The Overclone said before seeing a fresh minion enter the cave and approach him.

The Overclone chanted the spell then grabbed the head of the new minion and the head of an older minion that volunteered himself. Within a second, the overlord witness the older minion viscously attack the other minion 1,000 ways before the spell ended. The Overclone took a breath, just coming to terms with all the actions he's seen, all the while the two minion recoil from the forced head-butt.

"Nicely done, I believe you have enough spells for now regarding mind control. This next spell is part of necromancy, manipulating the dead to aid you lord. What will help you most is being able to detect the soul of another being, you have resurrected yourself using the hybrid blue minions' ability but you don't know how that works do you?"

"No I guess not, I can see their souls though but I can't do that now since I don't have the gauntlet or anything."

"Then first you must see the soul for yourself, I don't expect it to be easy for you but I have no doubts either."

The Overclone was approached by a hybrid brown, and he began concentrating on it, trying to sense his essence. Time went on and on but nothing happened. Morris encouraged the clone of his lord to not give up but the clone grew impatient as time passed. Eventually, the clone created a group of fifteen clones to speed it up. The lead clone took a small breather and thought about what he was doing wrong. It was a hard question to answer as he had no idea to detect a soul.

The lead clone decided to go a different path and tried to do something more plausible, detect the hybrid's chakra. That also took time but it felt better as every now and then he felt something. It was little a small spark that quickly arrived and died but it was progress. The lead clone pursued the small spark and was pleased as he got better at it, the spark got brighter and lasted longer.

It took thirty more minutes before the lead clone could detect the hybrid's charka right off the bat, but maintaining that level of focus was difficult. With his way proving to be more effective, and the other clones still being at ground zero, the Overclone dispersed them. New clones were created and this time focused on seeking out chakra.

A half hour later, with five other clones knowing what to do and how to do it, there were a lot more fruits to savor. The time it took to detect chakra was cut in half and the accuracy was greatly increased. With that done, the Overclone decided that the hybrids should move around to make it more realistic.

With his five other clones, the Overclone closed his eyes and sought out the chakra of the hybrid minions. He got better and better at detecting the chakra flow of the hybrid minion, it took some time and to make it easier, every half hour, the Overclone would replace the other five clones.

After five rotations, detecting a hybrid's chakra comes easily. The Overclone, finds the hiding hybrid with his eyes open and close and even when it's on the move, sneaking from one place to another.

"Well done Lord, let's continue with a resurrection of a recently killed minion."

"Ok." The Overclone was presented with minion, who was promptly killed. The clone knelt beside the minion and put all his efforts into reviving the minion. He skipped the part of trying to locate its soul and instead poured his chakra into it, having it spring to life as a result.

"Utterly impressive Lord."

"I didn't use magic, I used chakra."-The Overclone commented honestly.

"A step in the right direction lord. Why not instead of trying to locate the magic in these hybrid's, you try seeking out the magic in the other clones, you all have such strong magic, should be easier to detect."

The Overclone and the other clones seek out each other's magic. It took a fraction of the time the Overclone thought it would take. The clones continued to improve as time passed, though it took longer to be able to detect magic within the first five minutes, and it wasn't as easy as detecting chakra. With another hour and a new round of clones, the time was cut in half.

"I believe that is enough for that, now you must go in deeper, to the soul which is harder to detect but with your ability of locating both chakra and magic, I have no doubt you can find it. To make matters simple, try finding the souls within yourselves."

"I'm not sure we have souls, we're clones, we're made up of chakra."

"I see then use your talents to detect the essence of life."

~Noemi~

"Lord, Gnarl has been meaning to talk to you or at least a clone of you about Noemi."

"Ugh fine." The Overclone created a clone that went to the Minion Cavern's main hall.

"Ah lord thought you were out causing mayhem with your advisor."-Gnarl

"I'm a clone, what did you want to say about Noemi?"

"Ah I see, yes well for a few days there has been a man wanting to speak with her."

"Ok? Why should I care oh it's probably that what was his name? I don't remember..."

"Do look into it lord, could prove to be worth your time."

"Fine guess I don't have anything better do right now." The clone said before being stopped mid-turn.

"You can talk to him in the Netherworld."

"Right." The clone said before teleporting himself to the nether realm. He walked over to the throne and transformed himself into Noemi, who sat one of the armrests of the throne. The moment he did, her attire appeared on his body, a black top that showed off the now lithe belly, a dark blue long skirt that went down to her knees, fishnet leggings that went down to her ankles, blue sandals, dark red fingerless gloves that extended up to her elbows and to finish the look was a large sleeveless pink coat with a fur collar and furred rim. Taking a breath Noemi nodded, accepting the call of who ever wanted to talk to her.

An image of Kabuto appeared a small ways away from the throne. He looked up then around before his eyes fell upon the beautiful Noemi.

"Well well well, I wasn't expecting this."-Kabuto said, a smug look making its way on his face.

"Someone has been letting their minds wander, any particular reason you've been thinking about me?"-Noemi said with a smile.

"Hm, well I was thinking about a possible partnership, a woman of your talents can come in handy."

"Oh, I'm not just a tool, I'm pretty sure I'm stronger than you are. But regardless what would I get out of it?"

"Hmm what do you want?"

"Hmm what could you give me? Hmm oh I know why don't you tell me all about Orochimaru?"

"Why do you want to know about Lord Orochimaru?"

"I'm curious, he was the only person to best my little Naruto in the Chunin Exams and I doubt he was an actual participant."

"Well for such high quality information, you're going to have to do a few things for me."

"Such as?"

"You can start by telling me what this place is."

"Hmm, I would but I don't really trust you."

"Fair but I don't trust you either. Appears we're at a dead end."

"Hmm, well guess there's only one thing to do when coming to an impasse with me." Noemi said before standing up, taking a few steps down to the image of kabuto.

"And what is that?"

"To talk in person of course and probably over some tea."

"Tempting but I have things that need to be taken care of."

"It'll just be for a minute, let's meet in person, I can come to you."

"How about I come to you instead?"

"...fine." Noemi said before waving her hand over the image of Kabuto, which is replaced by the real Kabuto.

"Impressive...what is this place?" Kabuto says looking around the throne room of the Nether tower.

"The Netherrealm."

"Netherrealm?"

"Hell, my dear."

"I doubt that, despite the look of the place...probably just someplace underground...how are you we communicating if you are in hell?"

"Magic."

"Magic?"

"It's your turn, tell me some things about Orochimaru."

"Tell me how Naruto got so powerful, he is an unusual one, beating a Hyuga with such ease not to mention all of the other opponents he was faced with during the Chunin Exams."

"I trained him myself."

"That doesn't tell me much."

"Tell me something worthwhile then."

"Lord Orochimaru is one of the three Legendary Sannin, the other two being Lady Tsunade and Jiraiya the Toad Sage."

"I see, go on."

"Each of them are from the Leaf Village, they used to be on the same team before they went their own ways after the war against Suna, Orochimaru sought out knowledge, while Tsunade became renown for her medical justu, and Jiraiya sought more physical enjoyment but is still a capable ninja."

"Hmm that is something but I want to know more about Orochimaru. How is he so powerful?"

"Because he spent much of his life seeking out to master the various jutsu of the world."

Noemi briefly tilted her head to side in acknowledgment. "That'd do it. Where is he now?"

"I can't tell you that."

"Oh darling, you will." Noemi said using telekinesis to freeze Kabuto in place. Noemi took in a breath before she reached inside Kabuto's chest. Taking another breath and she pulled out his heart. "It worked." The heart became engulfed by black flames. "Now, tell me where Orochimaru is."

"He-he is in one of his hideouts, the one in the outskirts of Leaf Village."

"I see, now why don't you tell me his weaknesses."

"His thirst for knowledge will cloud his mind. At this moment, he is weak from two things one being his jutsu that allows him to switch bodies. The other being that he is unable to use any jutsu due to the altercation with the Third Hokage.."

"Interesting. A jutsu to switch bodies? Why did he do that?"

"To extend his life and gain the powers of the Uchiha."

"So, you nabbed Sasuke for this jutsu?"

"Yes."

"So, he is in Sasuke? So Sasuke is dead? That's somewhat interesting, I want to see this for myself. Take me to him." Noemi ordered, teleporting herself and Kabuto a mile away from the Minion Cavern.

Kabuto looked around before finding his way. Noemi followed him, seeing his body occasionally shudder or stop, Kabuto was clearly fighting the spell but not being able to break it. Kabuto leads Noemi right to Orochimaru's secret hideaway, safely avoiding all the precautions put in place to ward off and or kill intruders.

Kabuto lead Noemi straight to Orochimaru, who is in a bed with bandages all over his body which he stole from Sasuke.

Sasuke looks up at the new face, and noticing the odd state that Kabuto is in.

"Orochimaru...you're a bit smaller than I re-was told." -Noemi said walking closer to the bed. "Also, a whole lot younger."

"And who is this beauty before me? An admirer or a potential executer? Hm hm."

"I am Noemi. I'm hardly an admirer but I'm hardly an executor. No no, I won't kill you."

"How fortunate for me then. What did you do to Kabuto? Must be some strong form of genjutsu."

"No genjustu." Noemi sat at the edge of the bed. She leaned closer to Orochimaru and extended her hand to his chest. "I did what I do to all men, I stole his heart." Naomi said before pulling her hand back to herself, stealing a piece of Orochimaru's bloody bandages.

"How careless of him, he should have been more careful around the woman who enslaved nearly the entirety of the Leaf Village in a single night. What do you plan to do with him? Add him to your collection?"

"You make it sound so dastardly, I'm letting him fulfill his greatest desire: helping me the best he can."

"I see, is that what you plan to do to me as well?"

"I don't mean to be rude but you hardly seem in the shape to be of any help to me, why do you ask?"

"For someone, anyone to have done what you done to the Leaf Village is not someone to take lightly or to ignore. I suggest a joining of forces."

"You want to work with little 'ole me? I'm not so sure. How do I know I can trust you or I suppose how can you trust me so easily? Or perhaps it's because you want something out of this 'joining of forces'?"

"Perspective and beautiful, I do, I want to know how you, someone seemingly out of nowhere, managed to topple one of the strongest ninja villages on by your little self."

"Oh? I am I so impressive? I had no idea. I'm not that special darling. I don't mean to be rude or anything like that but what do I get out of it?"

"I can do many things for one you are an interesting woman, however I bet there are limits to even your powers. I can help you surpass those limits"

"Oh darling, I make it a habit to surpass whatever limits I reach all on my own. I hope that didn't come off as rude."

"So, you have the ability to restore my arms?"

Noemi paused and looked more closely at Sasuke's arms, which are heavily bandaged with blood slowly seeping through.

"Oh dear, what in the world did you do to get your arms in such a state?"

"It was the price of killing the Third Hokage."

"You killed the Third Hokage? Was he really so dangerous? I never got a chance to challenge him myself."

"As old as he may have been he was not defenseless."

"Apparently not, so what did he do?"

"The Death Reaping Soul jutsu, he ripped out my soul and cut off the arms, preventing me from using them."

"Hmm...interesting."

"Can you heal me?"

"Your soul was ripped out hmm? I'm sure I have something..."

"That would certainly surprise me as I only knew of one person who can heal these arms, Lady Tsunade."

"Hmm, well I'd love to help but I'm not sure we're on such good terms. I'll leave you to heal and find her on your own. Being a great and powerful Sannin, I have high hopes of your recovery." Noemi said getting up, more than ready to leave with a mission in mind.

"A woman of your talents, could accomplish more than you could ever dream when teaming up with me. What do you know about the jinchuriki?"

"Oh, um not that much there are nine of them, each one with incredible power." Noemi

"Indeed, there were but one of them has died, leaving eight however I'm working on making the ninth."

"You're going to make the ninth jinchuriki? Best of luck, I really must be going maybe we will meet again."

"Just know that my offer remains on the table and that I have countless connections throughout the nations. I can get you large amounts of money and political power." Noemi paused for a moment, something Ororchimaru noticed instantly. "That armor that the Uzimaki boy wears is unlike any armor I've ever seen. I know it is not something that can be cheaply made. I'm sure the cost of that could be around 2 million ryo? Perhaps even more."

"Hmm. So, are you offering me something? Are you suggesting that you can get me 2 million ryo?"

"I am and so much more."

"... four million." Noemi said surprised at the answer.

"Easily."

"Eight million?"

"You insult me."

"10 million?"

"By the end of the day."

"Hmmm, well then, I'll help you find this Lady Tsunade."

~Mortis's Mana Cave~

~The OverClone~

"Concentrate Lord, there is great magic within you, even without the gauntlet, you must harness that power."-Mortis encouraged his lord. "However, perhaps you would better adapt if we were working with humans, raising Minions from the dead is more difficult."

"Fine, let's give it a shot." The Overclone said, getting up from his knelt down position. a minion leaves the cave and comes back some time later with a group of four peasants, with a minion behind the group. One of the peasants is beaten to death, which is an easy task, then is dragged before the Overclone.

The Overclone concentrated on finding the fleeting soul but it doesn't get him far.

"Milord, what do you think about when performing this spell."-Mortis asks after the body has been dead long enough and is now being carried out of the cave.

"Hmm, nothing really just focused on concentrating."

"Well while doing that you should concentrate about how you feel when you kill someone then put in the desire to bring them back."

"That is a lot but whatever works." The Overclone took a breath and set out follow those directions once a new peasant was killed. This time went a little better as the body moved after a while, a twitch here and a twitch there. The Overclone tried again getting more movement out of the limb body. He held onto what he was feeling and poured his desire and magic into his future creation.

It took time but it was not a loss cause, each try brought more progress and now the body was pushing itself off the ground. The soul was still there though only by a thread it was enough. Finally, the corpse was up, its body swaying from one side to the other but it was upright and didn't cave in on itself.

"I tip my scythe to you sire, all that's left to do is perfect it."-Mortis

"I'll have these guys take care of that part." The Overclone said referring to the other clones, who started to walk to the other end of the cave with the remaining peasants. "Is there anything else you wanted to teach me?"

"For now, lord you have learned quite a lot, so for now, there isn't any more I believe you should know."

"Well then I'll just refine the skills I have."

~Orochimaru's Hideout~

~Noemi~

"I have reason to believe that she is gambling money away and running from debtors." Orochimaru said, sitting up, still getting used to his new body.

"So, how would you have gotten her to join you without my charming self."

"I would have offered her something she couldn't refuse."

"And what would that be?"

"The lives of her dearest love and her younger brother both of whom she lost some time ago."

"You can raise the dead?"

"Just one of my many talents."

"I see, well then why switched bodies with a twelve year old if your bed ridden afterwards. I hope you don't expect me to do all the heavy lifting. My frail self isn't built for such work."

"Isn't that why you have stolen Kabuto from me?"

"I'm merely burrowing him, I'll give him back."

"And when will that be?" Orochimaru asked, not believing Noemi.

"When he wants to." Noemi stated getting up to her feet. "Come on, darling, let me go. We have work to do, as fun as it is talking to you, you have to gather your assists and I'll see what I can do for you. I promise it will be worth the money." Noemi said with a light bow of her head.

"Until we meet again, Noemi."

"It's been a pleasure." Noemi said before teleporting herself and Kabuto to the Netherworld. "My my, well this Tsunade seems to be one powerful woman. How am I going to find her?"

"Milady, I know where she is."-Kabuto spoke up.

"Oh? Then let's go meet this lady, I wonder if she's really worth 10million ryo. Where is she?"

"She's in Tanzuka Quarters"

"I see and how far is that?"

"Just a few villages away."

"Really? Then let's get to it, lead the way my dear." Noemi said using the Netherheart to teleport them to the outside of the Leaf Village. Noemi and Kabuto hit the ground running. They leaped from tree to tree, Kabuto leading the way and Noemi close behind. The two weren't focusing on who they saw whether or not they were slaves knowing that the Overlord would deal with them soon enough.

They didn't stop until they reached their destination Noemi having high stamina and Kabuto not being allowed to rest. They came to a small but very busy village.

"Alright sees in this Village now we just have to find her." –Kabuto

"What does she look like?"

"She's taken the form of a young woman, probably in her twenties, blonde, with pigtails, beautiful."

"Beautiful? How beautiful?"

"She's just beautiful."

"Do you think she's prettier than me?"

"...yes, but not by much."

"Oh, I see well find her darling and then bring her to me and darling, after all that excuse yourself from my presence, forever."

"Yes milady." Kabuto said before going to find Tsunade. Noemi walks around the town, looking at the various people who look at her. She gives small smiles and runs a hand down her hair. Despite that she's fuming to see what this Tsinade looks like, fifty and prettier than her, she highly doubted that.

Eventually Kabuto returns but is empty handed. "Milady...she won't come to you, she only has interest in drinking and gambling."

"So, you have let me down, that's alright darling you weren't long for this world anyway. Where is she?"

"This way milady."

Noemi followed close behind Kabuto until they came to a tall building. They walked up the steps and found a group of men with a blonde with pig tails going down her back. "There she is milady, that's Lady Tsunade."

"Thank you, darling now depart from this world." Noemi said calmly, making a kunai appear in her hand. She handed it to Kabuto before walking towards the unaware blonde. "Excuse me? Are you Lady Tsunade?"

"Depends whose asking."-the woman said.

"I am Noemi, I need your talents."

"Oh, your friend came by a little while earlier I'll tell you what I told him, I'm not interested."

"I can understand that but I'm not asking my dear." Noemi stated, gently lifting her hand in the air and making all the chips, dice and various stacks of cash float in air. Noemi lifted her other hand, one hand sent all the gambling tools out the door while the other gathered all the money. Noemi stashed the stacks of cash in her chest, while Tsunade stood up. "Now, I have your full attention don't I?"

"Give me back my money." Tsunade said in a threatening tone, turning to face Noemi.

"Sorry darling but it's my money now unless you can beat me in fight."

"You've asked for it." Tsunade ran at Noemi charging and punching her in the cheek. Noemi flew out of the wall just above the door way. Tsunade walked down the stairs, she walked up to Noemi's body. "Fool."

"How dare you." Noemi said opening her eyes and sitting up. "You ruffled my glorious clothes." Noemi stated getting to her feet.

"So, you can still stand impressive."

"Indeed, I am and I guess you're not as weak as I first thought."

"Enough talk, give me back what you stole."

"Not a chance, my dear, let's have a cat fight, my beauty against your brawn." Noemi said running a hand over her own pig tails. Tsunade came charging once more but this punch was dodged as was the next and the one after that. "Come now did my pretty face distracting you so?" Noemi said leaping on top of a building.

Noemi slid her feet across the roof, slowing herself enough so she could pounce on top of Tsunade. Noemi grabbed Tsunade by the shoulders and forced her into the ground below, quickly jumping off of her. Tsunade grunted as she rose to her feet, dusting herself off.

"That all you got?"

"Oh my, no, but let's not speed this dance up too fast now, you're only on first base. But if you really want to get to second I guess I can let that happen but just this once." Noemi said pulling her Bako from off her back. Noemi twirls her spear with her arms before pointing it to Tsunade. The triton head shot out and followed Tsunade as she evaded it. Noemi left the spear in mid-air with her magic and guided the triton head with her chakra. Noemi closed in on Tsunade, slamming into her back with her shoulder. Tsunade is sent into the building's wall with it cracking upon impact. The triton head then speared Tsunade in her lower lumbar. The triton head pulled itself out, retracting back to the spear itself which flies back to Noemi's hand. Tsunade fights through the pain dislodging herself from wall and putting her hands together. Tsunade heals her injury without looking and stares at Noemi with a scowl.

"You said you need me but then you pull a move like that."

"It was second base darling, you wanted it gave it to you. Completely consensual."

"You are one weird woman."

"Oh! Don't be mean to me, I just wanted your help and you said no, what's a girl to do then?"

"Take the hint and beat it."

"Can't do that darling, your worth a lot of money."

"There's not bounty on my head."

"Not a traditional one." Noemi said before twirling the Bako in her hands, moving backwards as she does so. Noemi planted her feet in the ground and fired her Bako. Tsunade didn't dodge, didn't raise her arms to block, instead with great aim she grabbed the triton head by its neck. Tsunade grabbed the extend rope with her other hand and pulled. Noemi lurched forward but then pulled with her own strength. Noemi pulled and pulled but found herself being dragged closer to Tsunade. "How strong are you?"

"You're about to find out."

At that, Noemi released the Bako from her grasp, and stumbling in process. Tsunade pulled the spear to her left then whipped it across the air. Having just regained her footing Noemi was struck across the face with the end of the spear. Noemi was knocked to the floor now on her hands and knees. "Had enough yet kid?" Tsunade asked tossing the Bako far behind her, over a couple buildings.

"Hm hm hm had enough? Darling we just got started, we can't stop now, not when I'm feeling this excited." Noemi said moving some hair out of her face before standing up. Tsunade groaned in annoyance then leapt at Noemi foot first. Tsunade kicked Noemi through the wall across the street, the pig tailed beauty's feet hang off the opening of the hole her body made.

Noemi let out a small groan, thinking to herself before she rose her hand and snapped her fingers. Her Bako flew over buildings to return to her. Noemi pulled her feet inside the building she was kicked into then used the Bako to help herself up. Tsunade launched herself forward, fist raised high. Noemi glanced upwards and stopped her in mid-air. Tsunade fought against the magic, her body physically shaking by nothing else happened.

"You're stronger and more experienced but I'm beautifuler and far more powerful darling, the only qualities that turkey matter."

"You're just a tramp who discovered one good jutsu."

"No need to get rude darling." Noemi stated prior to slamming Tsunade on the ground crushing the bottom of the hole she had created. Noemi forced Tsunade along the ground and into the damaged building across the street. Noemi walked into the street ducking under the hole she had made and watching as the other building collapsed upon Tsunade. Noemi stood in the middle of the road watching as Tsunade crawled out of the rumble. "You better step it up darling otherwise you won't survive." Noemi said twirling the spear in her hands, above her head and to her sides. Noemi hurled the spear towards Tsunade, who was halfway out from the top. Tsunade went to deflect the spear but it turned, evading her arm and going around, vastly approaching her exposed back. Noemi leapt forward her own fist raised and aiming to punch Tsuande in the face. Tsuande caught Noemi's fist and then grabbed her waist quickly pulling her over herself to block the advancing spear.

"Not bad darling." Noemi said being held over Tsunade her spear stopping just short of hitting her raised lower-back. Noemi took in a breath and gathered herself. She created a barrier around herself, breaking Tsunande's hold and forcing her down as well as knocking her Bako further away from her.

In the first moments of freedom Noemi grabbed the ground and pushed herself away from the female Sannin. Tsunade though surprised didn't let it get to her that much instead using the time she had to pull herself out of the rumble.

"Lady Tsunade!"- A black haired female shouted as she ran down the street, dropping the steel cases she was carrying.

"Stay back Shizune, she's a weird one."-Lady Tsunade warned.

"You're just jealous. Though I am curious, is she as strong as you are?" Noemi asked out loud, walking over the rubble towards Shizune.

"Not even close."

"That's too bad, guess I'll just have to get rid of her." Noemi said raising her hand. The Bako flew to her side.

"You're fighting me, she's not in this."

"She won't be." Noemi flashed a smile to Tsunade before motioning forward. The Bako flew through the air at Shizune, who leapt to the left, dodging it. With a warning from Tsunade, Shizune looked behind her to see the Bako coming right back around. Noemi watched Shizune move, thinking she also was more than the average kunoichi. "Seems like she insists in disturbing our dance." Noemi said turning to face Tsunade and getting punched in hers. Left hook, right hook, gut punch, upper cut, Tsunade didn't let up. Tsunade kept her fists flying until she gave a strong punch to Noemi's gut. Noemi doubled over, now only able to see Tsunade's feet which she saw leap off the ground.

In a split second, Noemi teleported herself to the center of the town. She panted as she leaned against a wall. She was exhaling when she felt the ground shake violently. Noemi's head shot up and she teleported to the top of the building. She couldn't see Tsunade but she could easily find where they had fought. She wanted to see what happened but knew that she couldn't stand another blow from that woman. Regardless, curiosity got the best of her and she flew to the battle ground with magic.

She hovered in the air and gasped, the area was completely destroyed the ground itself was thrown out of place with some parts raised higher and the entire part had cracks running rampant.

"Okay wow, she is really strong." Noemi said to herself before finding it best to teleport to the Minion Cavern. Noemi sat in the throne, recovering from her wounds and in thought.

"Greetings Lordess."-Gnarl said from across the room.

"Oh! Darling don't startle me, I've had quiet enough surprises for one day."-Noemi said resting her head on her hand. Gnarl looked at her puzzled but kept certain thoughts to himself.

"And what surprises would those be."

"A fifty year old woman is far stronger than I could even imagine, physically of course."

"Oh, that is surprising."

"Worse yet she is more beautiful than I am!" Noemi whined loudly.

"Oh...what does she look like?"

"GNARL!"

"Kidding kidding lordess, it doesn't matter how pretty she may be, you can probably steal the strength and beauty from her."

"I want to but how can I do that if I can't beat her."

"Ah that's right you don't have the Minion gauntlet, that's with the Overlord."

"Hmph! I could wear it better but perhaps I don't have too. I have a blood bath in mind, I might not be able to wield the gauntlet but this could be even better."

"And what do you have in mind?"

"I want the blood of each minion tribe, pour them all in at once since you all follow me I don't have to worry about being attacked not that any of you could beat me regardless."

"I'm not sure that's safe beautiful one."

"I'm a dangerous girl, Gnarl, so get it done. Pretty please?"

"Very well lordess you'll be informed of what it's ready." Gnarl said leaving the smiling Noemi's presence.

~Meanwhile~

The Overclone breathes heavily, having been training for hours, creating a set of new clones every now and then, he felt a bored.

"Mortis."-Overclone

"Yes, dark one?"

"I'm bored, my skills have improved to a degree which I'm satisfied with, there must be something else I can do."

"You have been very mysterious in your evil doings so it is time for you to announce yourself to the rest of the worl my lord."

"Hmm I guess so, I mean I was only holding out cuz of the village but they already know now and since I've given them their choice and demonstrated my power, I'll just check back in with them tomorrow. Speaking of other forms of myself, what's Noemi doing? Why was she so necessary that a regular clone couldn't have dealt with it?"

"I believe it involved someone who ran across Noemi during the what were they called the Chunin Exams. The man who met her has been wanting to contact her for some time."

"Oh, was he useful?"

"That's a question best suited for the beautiful one herself."

"Fine where is she?"

"The Netherworld."

The Overclone teleported himself to the Netherworld's throne room, Noemi sitting in throne itself.

"You look comfortable."-The Overclone said, walking up the short stairs.

"Oh, uh wait your just clone."-Noemi

"As are you."

"Yes, but with beauty."

"Why are you still here? You killed the guy wasn't that the aim of whatever was you were set out to do?"

"No, it wasn't, it was to learn more about Orochimaru."

"What did you learn? Why don't you dissipate and so the rest of us know what you're talking about?"

"Because like with Rock Lee, I don't want the original to loss any valuable info so, I'm staying, for now."

"Lordess, the bloodbath is ready."-Gnarl walking up from the shadows. "Oh, greetings lord."

"He's just a clone Gnarl."-Noemi

"I guessed as much."-Gnarl

"A Bloodbath? Why are you taking a bloodbath?"-Overclone

"Yes, I am. I want to try something."-Noemi said, standing to her feet.

"And what is that?" Overclone asked in a threatening tone.

"If a clone's can become more human."

"I admit I'm curious but what happens when you run out of chakra?"

"We'll just have to wait and see, this might fail as I'm already using a good amount to keep myself together. Tsunade is one tough bitch."

"Who's Tsunade?"

"I'll tell you afterwards, if I die well then you'll already know." Noemi said getting up.

"A part of me wants you to succeed but how useful are you compared to just another clone? Or a transformation?"

Noemi shrugged, not having an answer to the question as she walked to the Blood Bath chamber.

Upon entering, Noemi began to take off her clothes until she stepped inside the blood bath with the qualities she wanted from the various minions. Generally, she wanted their elemental powers, their resistances, their physical and magical strengths, and their solidness.

Noemi relaxed in the blood letting it wash over her until she opened her eyes. She was in a dark area which was rimmed by large fireballs they were six massive portraits, one being across from the other five.

Noemi looked behind herself, seeing a massive portrait of the Overlord then she looked ahead of herself to a portrait of a hybrid red minion, hybrid blue minion, hybrid green minion, hybrid brown minion and a hybrid silver minion. Noemi stared at the hybrid silver portrait, the silver minion had wings and was in the air.

"Master."-The hybrid brown said with the other minions around in.

"I didn't think you would attack me. Alright let's get to it."

For their powers and elemental resistances, Noemi took their respective features, from the blue she took the gills, one for power, one for water resistance; from the green she took the nails, one set of four for power, the other set for poison resistance; from the red, she took the horns, one for power, the other for fire resistance; from the brown she took the ears, one for power the other for earth resistance; lastly from the silver she the wings, one for power the other for wind resistance. Noemi put all the items on her portrait with magic, the gills on her neck, the nails on her hands, the horns on her head, the ears on her portrait's and the wings were placed at the space next to her sides. For their physical strengths and their solidness, their bodies were required. Noemi used part of the vast amount of magic she had to decapitate the minions. The various minion bodies over lapped each other but remained hovering in place.

After some time, the various objects were integrated into the Overlord's portrait which changed drastically. The armor disappeared completely, he had two small horns on his head, his hair was down to his neck which housed more defined gills, his ears were longer and pointed at the tips, finally he had small black wings on his back.

The blood bath ended and Noemi opened her eyes, able to see a few minions around her. Noemi lifted a hand out of the blood and it looked the same. She put them on her head but it felt the same as always, she was puzzled for a moment until she guessed that being a transformed clone that she wouldn't appear any different even if she was. She got out of the tub, telling the minions to dump out the bad blood. Noemi did feel somewhat different but the true way to tell was to call upon her new powers. She called on her poison powers, see how that as a stand out from the powers she already had.

Noemi stared at her hand, her nails as they dropped a light green fluid before the nails themselves turned that same color. She had no doubt that striking someone with her nails would poison them but she had to be sure. Noemi motioned for one of the minions cleaning the bath to near her. When the minion got close enough, Noemi slashed him leaving green glowing marks on his face. The minion seemed fine despite the markings remaining, so after a while Noemi sent him back to work.

When it was time to be cleaned of the blood, Noemi got into the tub, now filled with clean water. She was cleaned and being fully aware of how long it normally took for a cleaning, she stopped the minions when she felt it dragged on. Noemi got redressed and walked out of the Blood Bath Chamber.

Noemi walked down to the dungeon, wanting to test her powers on humans, thinking that hybrid minions might be strong enough to resist serious damage from a potentially weaker version of their own attacks, regardless of the tribe. Noemi looked at the various malnourished and bound men in the room. All eyes were on Noemi, who looked at all of them, until she came to Kisame.

"Looks like you win, darling." Noemi said approaching the blue skinned male.

"Oh goodie, are you going to release me?"-Kisame said with heavy sarcasm.

"Yes, in a sense." Noemi said putting her hand to Kisame's face, her nails started glowing green. Kisame felt a sharp pain when the three inch nails left their glowing mark on his face. Noemi watched curiously as the green markings on Kisame's cheek started to spread across the rest of his face. Kisame only let himself release a groan before the glowing started to fade. The marks themselves were still visible but they were no longer glowing.

Noemi began experimenting, slashing Kisame various times to see what happens. She concluded that the poisonous touch only lasted up to thirty seconds, the minimum being ten seconds. She would have freed Kisame to see how her water resistance stacked up but he died from an overdose of poison. Watching him die was interesting, Noemi saw a blue skull raise from his body. She reached out for it and took it into her grasp. It was a deep blue, one she marveled at before it faded away. With nothing else to distract her, she turned her attention to Kakuzu, a man formally of many jutsu.

"Try not to die on me, darling." Noemi said standing before Kakuzu.

"Hmph, I won't be as easy to defeat."-Kakuzu

"Wonderful." Noemi smiled and teleported Kakuzu and herself to the Minion Cavern Training room.

Kakuzu glances around, seeing that he was in a sense free.

"What is this?"

"A test of strength darling, give me everything you got."

"Once I take care of you, I'm going to kill that brat and steal his heart."

"If you can get pass me, you are welcome to try."

"Prepare to die. Earth style-" Noemi hastily teleported Kakuzu and herself to the out skirts of Konoha, being surrounded by forest and not anyway near the Minion Cavern.

The forest was lit by the setting sun. Noemi kept her eyes trained on the weakened Kakuzu as he sent a shockwave through the earth, forcing up boulder sized rocks, which he sent her way. In curiosity of her newly stolen powers, Noemi didn't move, letting the boulders crush her into tree after tree. Pain was ever present but Noemi expected as much, what she wanted to see was how much pain would she feel. There was quite a bit but she was in one piece, not nearly exhausted as she was from suffering Tsunade's attacks. Noemi on top of trees with four boulders acting as her tomb pushed against the one immediately in front of her.

Unfortunately, they were too heavy so rather than waste her time, Noemi teleported to Kakuzu, much to his surprise.

"You're still alive, I know hit you with that attack."

"Indeed, I was. You are a strong one, I'm tempted to keep you around. I will, in fact, you seem useful." Noemi said more to herself before teleporting behind Kakuzu, to rip out his heart. Noemi pulled her hand out of Kakuzu's back with his only heart glowing in dark flames. "From now on you will only seek to better my cause. Understood?"

"Yes master."

"Please, call me beautiful."
