Chapter 13
*Knock* *Knock
"Come in" a muffled response replied to the knock.
"Team Seven reporting in," Kakashi said with a bow as they entered the room.
"So as you said we will leave today. I would have liked you to meet the other escort team but unfortunately they only come back last night from a mission. They are waiting at the gate for us," the Kazekage said standing up.
"So are you back up to strength Naruko?" the Kazekage asked walking out of his office and heading for the entrance.
"Unfortunately no, not yet it's still another hour till I regain my full strength," Naruko replied while Team Seven followed closely behind the kazekage.
"Sorry but we don't have time to delay, either wise we won't make it to the border before nightfall and you don't want to spend the night in the desert unless you have to," the Kazekage said picking up the pace to the village entrance not wanting to waste any time.
Team Seven along with the Kazekage quickly reached the main entrance. When they arrived they could see three people waiting at the entrance. The first person was standing at the left side of the three people.
Naruko couldn't see much of the person as she was wearing a cloak much like the one Naruko wore on her way here. The difference was that the cloak had sleeves but otherwise it was a white cloak that covered her entire body only leaving her blue eyes visible. On her back was a giant black fan at least that was what Naruko thought it could be.
The second person however wasn't wearing a cloak at all. The boy was a bit shorter than the girl. He had red hair that looked exactly like the Kazekage just redder. Above his right eye was a red scar, or tattoo Naruko wasn't sure which one it was, in the shape of the kanji for love.
He has cyan eyes with a black ring surrounding the outer of his eyes. The thing that scared Team Seven the most was the hard cold lifeless stare the person was giving them. Naruko suddenly felt like she had known him all her life.
Naruko could see the fear in the other two ninja's eyes every time their eyes took a glance at the boy. See didn't see the normal cold hate filled stare like she got, but presumed that the boy did have his fair share of them.
The boy is wearing a grey short-sleeved shirt, grey long pants and shinobi sandals. Over his clothes is a white sash that is used to hold the brown gourd behind his back. What was in the gourd Team Seven had no idea.
The last person was the tallest of the three who easily had a full head size over the other boy. He was wearing a full dark brown one piece body suit that also covered the top of his head leaving his face open. The top of the suit made it look like he had ears on the top of his head.
He had black eyes and had purple paint on his face, or was it makeup? Naruko wondered. On his back was something oval in shape covered in white bandages. Due to his suit this person also didn't wear a cloak. Naruko though that this guy looked rather funny in his suit and makeup.
"This is the other Team that will be escorting me to Konoha. These are my kids, Temari, Gaara and Kankurō," the Kazekage introduced his three children from left to right.
"You can get to know each other on the way there and during our stay at Konoha but for now we must move out," the Kazekage said preventing any conversations from starting.
"What is with the paint or is it makeup?" Naruko asked, when they were a few minutes out from Suna, curious about why Kankurō's face is covered like it is.
"Its war paint and it's for intimidation," Kankurō replied not happy that Naruko thought it was makeup.
"Intimidation? I'm sorry but with that suit of yours it makes you look funny, and how the hell can you survive in this heat wearing that?" Naruko giggled before noticing now that his suit is a dark colour not light like everyone else.
"Lay off the suit would you and it's actually rather cool in here, it has a few added features that prevents it from getting hot," Kankurō said with a tick mark on his forehead.
"And enough about me what about you? I definitely would like to get to know a hot girl like you?" Kankurō asked trying to act smooth making Sasuke's eye twitch a few times.
"So you're a playboy? Sorry to tell you but I am taken but you're more than welcome to look," Naruko said seductively while biting her finger. This made Sasuke's eye twitch again while Kankurō got a nose bleed when Naruko cupped her breasts and made them bounce a few times.
Temari in the meantime was rather jealous as she was a full cup size smaller than Naruko even though she seemed to be a year or two younger than her. Temari was happy she was wearing a mask else the others might have noticed the blush on her face from watching Naruko play with her breasts.
"Kakashi-sensei see what you have done, you corrupted her," Sakura said giving Kakashi a deadpan look. Kakashi just laughed awkwardly while rubbing the back of his head.
"K-K-Kakashi its t-t-time," Naruko said coming to a sudden stop feeling very weak again.
After Naruko changed into a human she still felt weak and drained but could still travel and fight if she needed to. Now Naruko learned that both changing to human and hanyou made her extremely weak. Naruko started falling forward unable to keep herself up.
Sasuke quickly caught Naruko before she could hit the ground before sitting down and laying Naruko's head on his lap. Naruko soon after regained awareness and blushed when she saw Sasuke right above her.
Her blushing increased even more when she realised that she was resting her head on Sasuke's lap. Just like last time her breathing rate increased for a minute or so before going back to normal. The Kazekage and his children were curious and confused as to what was happening.
Gaara didn't care he just thought that this girl was just a weakling and wasn't worth the effort of killing. Naruko's body started pulsing slowly before the intervals before each pulse shortened to the point where it almost seemed continuous then it suddenly stopped.
Naruko stood up after regaining most of her strength but was confused that she hadn't changed into a hanyou yet. One powerful burst coursed through her body making her kneel on one knee. Sasuke reacting quickly caught Naruko by the hand with one of his hands while the either caught her by the opposite shoulder.
Sasuke wasn't able to catch her in time to stop her from kneeling onto the ground. Another strong pulse once again coursed through her body. This pulse made Naruko grunt, with a slight growl making itself known. Temari and Kankurō didn't expect the growl so were a bit shocked and confused.
Gaara on the other hand started to smirk evily as he felt Naruko's power increase slowly. Naruko grunted and growled several times slightly scaring Temari, Kankurō and Sasuke, though with Sasuke it was for a different reason.
Kakashi and Sakura were also rather concerned as it seems more painful for Naruko this time round. The Kazekage just observed with great interest though didn't show it on his face not that you could see it because of the mask that was covering most of his face.
Another pulse pulsed through Naruko making her hair undo the ponytail that it was in. A small crater formed around Naruko while her hair started blowing upwards due to the wind that picked up within the perimeter of the crater. Dust and sand started blowing away from Naruko.
The unknown force that made the crater knocked Sasuke back a few inches. Kakashi seeing what might happen shouted to the rest of the group.
"GET BACK!" Kakashi shouted while grabbing Sasuke and Sakura before jumping back several times so they were about thirty metres away from Naruko. The Kazekage and his children did the same and jumped back till they landed near Kakashi.
"Nyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa," Naruko growled loudly while her voice changed to her demonic voice every few seconds before settling in it all together.
A stronger pulse came from Naruko making the crate a bit bigger and deeper but not by much. With the pulse Naruko's ears shot out from her head followed by her five tails. Her hair and fur on her tails turned gold for a few seconds before changing back to an orange red colour.
This pulse made the sand and rocks that were floating upwards stop as if time had frozen. Her hair and tails continued to blow upwards and flap widely like the wind hadn't stopped blowing. Naruko was silent during this part and it remained like this for a few seconds.
During this time, time seemed to slow down making it appear to be going on longer then it actual did. Another much stronger pulse expanded from Naruko making it look like an explosion went off. The rest had to cover their eyes from the sudden explosion as a strong wind carried dust and sand away from Naruko.
The strong wind in the area quickly cleared it of the dust that was floating around revealing a ten metre wide and deep crater with Naruko in the centre. Naruko jumped up high into the sky and landed in front of the group. The rest of the group stood their wide eyed even the rest of Team Seven.
The Kazekage and his kids having never seeing anything like this were very amazed and confused. Gaara was the same just excpet he was grinning like a madman feeling the power radiating of Naruko. There stood Naruko with her gold blond hair and ears on top of her head and five gold blond tails waving merrily behind her.
Her eyes had regained her usual ocean blue eyes which looked like a fox's eye. Naruko had a smile on her face before she lost it replacing it with a confused look. Naruko observed herself feeling very different compare to the last time though she couldn't quite place what it was.
She felt stronger much stronger she wasn't sure if it was just because she had felt so weak earlier or if she really was stronger. The most noticeable thing was is that she really felt different and in a good way but couldn't for the life of her place what it was.
She had a hunch that it had to do with defeating her evil self. Seeing the confused look on Naruko's face Sasuke spoke up.
"Naruko? Is everything alright you seem confused?" Sasuke asked.
"Yea I'm fine, no, better than fine, I feel amazing and I can't place why," Naruko said nodding while looking at herself.
Naruko suddenly realised that she didn't have her cloak on so looked to Kakashi who and a neutral expression on his face.
"Kakashi-sensei where is my cloak," Naruko asked.
"Don't know was about to ask you the same thing. You had it on before… well this," Kakashi said pointing to the crater.
Naruko followed Kakashi's finger and her eyes went wide at seeing the crater. Naruko made a mental note not to be near anyone, thing or building during the next new moon. Kankurō and Temari now had a perfect view of Naruko and her body.
As she wasn't wearing her weights including her vest she was in just her normal black tight long sleeved shirt and black tight long pants. It looked like a one piece suit which showed off all of her curves and muscles.
Her muscles weren't too big just slightly well-defined still giving her a feminine look. Temari was very jealous, she knew she had a great body and figure and was considered the hottest of all the girls of her age group and below also hotter than most of the girls older than her.
With Naruko she didn't even come close. Kankurō gave a low whistle at Naruko's body and taking her offer of having a good look. Though he was rewarded by an elbow to the ribs from Temari. The sibling's attention was brought back to Naruko when Kakashi handed her a scroll.
"Here you might want this back," Kakashi said giving Naruko the scroll.
"Huh? Oh my weights," Naruko happily said before taking the scroll and unsealing its contents.
"You train with weights?" Temari asked with a slight excitement in her voice.
"I don't think weights is the right word," Sakura said with an awkward chuckle.
"What do you mean?" Temari asked.
"Well, all three of us use weights but we don't compare to Naruko," Sakura replied while Naruko was putting her wrist and ankle weights on.
"Naruko let Temari try to pick up your vest," Sakura said seeing Naruko's vest still on the ground.
"OK sure but be careful, I don't want you to hurt yourself," Naruko said not liking the idea of someone other than her or Kakashi picking up the weight, especially after Sasuke tried to when they were half the weight of what they are now.
"If I can carry my fan this will be easy," Temari said confidently.
"No really, be careful," Kakashi warned which made Temari curious about why Kakashi spoke up.
Temari tried picking up the vest only to seriously struggle and only after using her chakra did she manage to pick it up a few inches of the ground. Temari put the weight back down slowly before trying again to make sure it wasn't her.
After struggling again Temari looked at Naruko than back to the weight. Kankurō laughed and called Temari weak and tried to pick up the vest only to give up very quickly after it failed to budge.
"Ummm? What the hell is this thing?" Kankurō asked confused.
"Like I said I don't think weight is the right word," Sakura repeated herself.
"Just how heavy is it, my fan is 45kg and I can easily carry it around?" Temari asked.
"230kg," Naruko replied like it was nothing.
"2-2-2-230kg," Kankurō and Temari said in disbelief even the Kazekage raised an eyebrow at this while Gaara remind unfazed not really caring.
"Yea and so are each of these," Naruko said while pointing to her wrist and ankle weights.
"Each, but that means that you are carrying…"
"Yep 1150kg in total," Naruko said proudly.
Kankurō and Temari really didn't know how to react to this.
"Besides the ridicules weight how is it that you have… your extra features," the Kazekage asked with great interest.
"I'm not human I'm a hanyou, a kitsune hanyou to precise," Naruko answered while she quickly put on her vest.
"I see, most interesting," the Kazekage said getting Kakashi's attention at the way it was said.
"Right let us head out we need to catch up some ground. We have lost time thanks to this," the Kazekage said making everyone turn towards Konoha.
"Gahhhh," a sudden voice screamed out.
Everyone quickly turned to the origin of the scream and saw the Kazekage holding Gaara with one hand while another had stuck a syringe into Gaara's neck. The rest watch as the Kazekage inject a purplish liquid into Gaara's neck.
The Kazekage released Gaara who buckled over clenching his head and screaming and mumbling something.
"Tou-sama what did you do to Gaara?" Temari asked very confused along with Kankurō.
Team Seven got into stances not knowing what to expect.
"Kukukuku! I'm just helping things along," the Kazekage laughed before speaking in a creepy voice that wasn't the Kazekage's voice.
Kakashi seeing the long snake like tongue coming from the Kazekage's mouth licking his lips and remembering that laugh from anywhere had a very good hunch who this was.
"Who the hell are you, you're not our father," Kankurō spat out.
"Kukuku, I am no one special just a certain someone to some people," the Kazekage said while peeling of his skin grossing everyone out.
When the Kazekage finished peeling of his face another face could be seen and it was a very pale face. The face was practically white and purple rings surrounded his vertical slit snake like eyes which continued down the sides for his nose.
He also had very long black hair instead of the reddish brown hair the Kazekage was supposed to have.
"Sannin no Orochimaru," Kakashi said with venom in his voice.
"What did you do with the Kazekage?" Kakashi demanded.
"Kukuku who knows," Orochimaru said before turning into mud and melting to which six ninja's appeared from nowhere in front of Gaara.
"Otonin!" Naruko said recognising the ninjas, just this time instead of the all-black suit they had a brown sleeveless jacket over their clothes that went down to their knees and were cut on the sides from the hip down.
The Otonin charged everyone expect for Naruko forcing distance between her and the rest of the group leaving Naruko with Gaara. Naruko heard Gaara scream again and turned to him only to see him encasing himself in a sphere of sand.
Naruko turned to the rest of the group to see that Kakashi had already dealt with the three ninjas that went after him and moving to help Kankurō and Temari. Naruko turned to Sasuke and Sakura and saw that they had already taken one down and just took down the second.
When Sakura and Sasuke took down the third, Kakashi had already helped Kankurō and Temari take down the last three. They all gathered around Naruko and saw the sphere of sand. Kankurō and Temari gasped and backed away slowly. Naruko could see great fear within their eyes.
"Oi what's wrong? What's got you so afraid?" Naruko asked.
"That," Kankurō said in a flat voice pointing to the sphere of sand.
"Like I said. What is it?" Naruko asked seeing that Gaara was completely surrounded by sand which made a perfect sphere.
"He is transforming and there is no stopping it now," Temari said sadly in voice that clearly soundly like she had given up on life.
"Transforming into what?" Naruko asked.
"Something big and evil. The last time this happened he killed thirty percent of our village in one night. He didn't stop rampaging, destroying and killing everything within sight until our father stepped in and contained it until it calmed down," Kankurō explained.
Naruko suddenly found herself being pulled into the seal.
"Kid remove the seal from the cage you will need my help for this," Kurama said pointing to the piece of paper in the middle of the cage.
"Wait I thought you said I needed the key and what's going on do you know what is happening with Gaara?" Naruko asked looking up at Kurama.
"I know but if you remove the seal I'm sure with your help we can force the cage open. And yes I know what is happening," Kurama said nodding his head.
"Okay then let's give it a try. Can you say what is going on" Naruko said nodding her head before asking as to what was happening with Gaara.
"He is changing into his Bijū state, he is like you. He contains Shukaku the one tailed Bijū," Kurama explained.
"Bijū state?" Naruko asked hoping it's not what she was thinking.
"It is exactly what you are thinking, he is going to basically release Shukaku," Kurama said hearing Naruko's thought.
"Fuck…" was all Naruko said.
Naruko jumped up to and clung on the cage near the piece of paper. As soon as Naruko's hand touched the paper another hand grabbed her hand and pulled her down to the ground. Naruko landed on her feet and turned to towards the direction of the person that grabbed her hand.
"Yondaime?" Kurama asked recognising the person.
"Yondaime?" Naruko repeated looking between Kurama and this person
This person looked to be in his early twenties. He had yellow blond short spikey hair and ocean blue eyes. He is wearing the standard blue jōnin outfit with a green utility vest and a blue headband with Konoha's symbol on it.
Over his outfit is a sleeveless open white jacket that reaches just below his shins. Naruko recognised his face to the one that was on the Hokage monument and confirmed that this person really was the Yondaime Hokage, Konoha no Kiiroi Senkō.
The Yondaime was Naruko role model and to her the coolest person to have ever lived. She knew about how he saved Konoha from Kurama's attack. Naruko didn't know why but when she saw him she felt extremely happy and had no idea why and it wasn't because her role model was in front of her.
"Hey Naru-chan," the Yondaime greeted softly and happily.
"How do you know my name?" Naruko asked.
"A father is supposed to know the name of his child," the Yondaime replied.
Naruko eyes went very wide at the sudden realisation of what he had just said.
"F-F-Fathe-e-er?" Naruko stuttered out.
"Yea it's me Naruko. I am your father," Naruko's father said while nodding.
"Gahh," the Yondaime grunted buckling over.
After hearing the confirmation from her father she punched him hard in the stomach making him buckle over.
"Guess I partly dissevered that," the Yondaime said coughing a bit while standing back up.
The Yondaime was very surprised as Naruko brought him in to a very tight hug also using her tails to tighten the hug. The Yondaime smile softly when he heard her openly cry out. He returned the hug and happily let her cry her heart out from happiness.
"Yondaime, Minato why are you here?" Kurama asked.
"When I created the seal I made a failsafe should Naruko every try to remove the seal," Minato answered.
"You real did think of everything did you? I hope you know what's going on because we don't have much time," Kurama said not wanting to explain everything.
"Yes I have been watching from inside the seal so I know everything up till now. And Kyūbi thank you for looking after her," Minato sincerely thanked Kurama.
"I didn't do it for you. I did it because unlike anyone else I have come across she was the only one who didn't judge me and learned my side of the story. She was the only one who took the time to try and befriend me," Kurama replied.
"So anything I do, I do for her and no one else," Kurama said with pride and defensively towards.
"Kurama…" Naruko whispered through her sobs still hugging her father with all her might.
"Naruko are you sure about opening the cage?" Minato asked her daughter.
"He deserves to be free not caged, he never asked for this and nor did we. I trust him with my life, I will do anything for him," Naruko replied still refusing to let her father go.
"I see. In that case then by all means open the cage. Though both of you must know that Kurama can only be truly free by either extracting him or if he takes control of you and turns you into the new Kyūbi. Both result in the loss of your life," Minato explained.
"I know that. I never said anything to Naruko as I feel that I am truly free in here with her," Kurama said looking deeply into Naruko's eyes.
"Kurama-chan… Thank you," Naruko thanked starting to cry again from happiness.
"Tou-san how do we open the cage? I don't have the key to it," Naruko asked after a few minutes of crying and calming down enough to speak.
"Should anything happen to the current holder of the original key or anything that prevents you from getting the key I created another one and stored it in here. The one place one wouldn't think to look," Minato said.
"You never cease to amaze me, so where in here is the key located?" Kurama asked very impressed.
"Beneath one of the tiles. Only I know which and only I can remove the seal that is protecting it," Minato replied.
"Honey can you let go for a few seconds while I fetch the key?" Minato asked as Naruko was still hugging him with all her might.
"No take me with," Naruko said jumping up a bit and wrapping her legs around her father's waist.
"I need to get to the seal, just move a bit for me please," Minato said when he reached the tile that was right in front of the cage.
Naruko reluctantly dropped her legs and let go of the hug but still keeping close to him and her tails wrapped around his waist. Minato knelt down and broke the tile revealing a small scroll. Minato opened the scroll before biting his finger and spreading his blood across the scroll.
With a poof of smoke a giant scroll appeared a bit smaller than Minato. Minato unrolled the large scroll revealing a key shape design. In the key it was filled with many strange symbols Naruko didn't recognised.
"Just sign you name here in blood and the key will be yours," Minato explained pointing to the large empty block above the key design.
Naruko bit her finger making it bleed before writing her name and making a hand print in blood below her name. The scroll closed itself and disappeared in a poof of smoke. Naruko saw that the tile her father broke earlier was fixed.
"The key returned to its original storage place. All you need to do now is remove the seal up there. Then send chakra to your finger tips and unlock the gate by turning the seal clockwise that's is on your stomach," Minato explained how to open the cage.
Naruko nodded before quickly hugging her father again and saying thank you a few times.
"I wish I could stay but I only have a small amount of chakra and releasing the key took most of it so I will be leaving now. Sorry Naruko but I can't stay in this plane any longer," Minato said sadly returning the hug again.
"N-n-no don't leave me," Naruko said starting to cry again.
"Sorry Naruko but I don't have any chakra left to remain here," Minato said sadly tightening the hug.
Naruko hearing that he decided to try something and channeled her chakra into her father. Minato sudden felt a surge of chakra enter him and completely overfill his normal capacity limit.
"Naruko what did you do?" Minato said pulling back from the hug and looking at himself.
"You said you didn't have chakra so I used mine to fill yours," Naruko replied between a few sobs.
"Well it seems it worked. I have almost triple the amount I normally had even I was alive," Minato said filling full of energy.
"This is great and all, and now that Minato can stay a bit longer but we have other things to deal with. Gaara's transformation is almost complete," Kurama said being forced to break up the tender moment.
Naruko nodded and lifted her shirt and vest up slightly exposing her midriff and used her hand to turn the seal on her stomach after Minato had removed the piece of paper that was on the cage.
The cage flung open before all the walls disappeared leaving and empty void. The floor remain and so did the water that was covering the floor. Kurama walked to Naruko and sat behind her while Naruko had her back facing Kurama and a smile on her face.
-Outside the seal, Real world-
The group got really confused except Kakashi when Naruko suddenly shut down. She remained standing and was still alive but her eyes looked a bit lifeless and wasn't looking or focusing on anything.
Sasuke called out to Naruko and shook her a few times but failed to get any response.
"Kakashi-sensei what's wrong with Naruko?" Sasuke asked having no idea what was going on now.
"I have a hunch of what it is. Let's just back up a few metres. Sasuke bring Naruko with you," Kakashi answered before the Sasuke picked up Naruko and placed her on his shoulder.
The group moved back so they were around ten metres away from the sphere of sand. Sasuke put Naruko down and held her with one of her arms around his shoulder and one of his hands supporting her by the waist.
After about two minutes later Naruko started coming to. Only two minutes have passed in the real world while fifteen minutes had passed in the seal. Naruko stood up and Sasuke let Naruko go. Naruko walked forward and stopped when she was in front of everyone.
"Kakashi-sensei please fall back a bit I will deal with this," Naruko said turning her head to look at Kakashi.
"Naruko I can't let you do this alone," Kakashi said walking up to Naruko.
"Kakashi-sensei please trust me. I wouldn't do this if I knew I couldn't," Naruko replied.
"Besides I am the only one who can," Naruko said with a small smile.
Kakashi nodded and placed his trust in her. Kakashi ordered the rest to fall back leaving a thirty metre gap between them and Naruko.
"Kakashi why is Naruko out there alone? she will be killed. She can't stop him even with all the weight she can carries" Kankurō said blankly.
"No she can, she is just like Gaara. So place faith in her, I know she can do it," Kakashi said with an eye smile.
Temari and Kankurō's eyes went wide at hearing that Naruko is just like their brother. Their response was cut short by the sound of a loud poof. All eyes turned to the sound and what they saw shocked them to their very core.
There stood a single tailed Bijū made of sand with lots of blue spots and strips all over its body. The thing that stood out the most was the size of it, which was easily as big as the Hokage monument.
Naruko calmly looked up to Shukaku who looked back down on Naruko.
"YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA! At last I am free, and look my first victim," Shukaku roared forcing Naruko's ears to flatten on to her head as it was a very loud roar, even the rest of the group had to block their ears.
"Naruko align our chakra. It's time to remind this drunken crazed lunatic not to mess with me," Kurama said to Naruko from inside the seal.
Naruko smirked before aligning her chakra with Kurama. Red chakra started to cover Naruko making it look like Naruko was covered in a cloak of Chakra. The chakra formed five tails which covered Naruko's tails. Naruko's skin then suddenly turned into a mixture of black and red.
Her pupils disappeared leaving her eyes purely white. Naruko crouched down low and had her hands on the ground. She looked like an animal standing on all four of its legs. Kakashi's eyes went very wide seeing Naruko change and felt Kyūbi's chakra coming from her.
Unlike the last time, this chakra wasn't cold and full of evil, malice and hatred instead it was warm, and gave off the feeling of happiness, protection and made one feel safe like nothing would happen to them at all.
Kankurō and Temari almost freaked out when Naruko started changing as they knew what she was going to change into. Though that was stopped when they felt that the chakra Naruko was releasing was full of warmth and security.
"Kakashi this isn't Naruko's shape-shifting ability is it?" Sasuke asked noticing that this feels and looks very different to her normal shape-shifting ability.
"Yes it's not. I don't believe it, she is willingly releasing him and it feels like they are co-ordinating with each other," Kakashi replied before thinking aloud.
"Releasing him what do you mean?" Sakura and Sasuke asked at the same time.
Kakashi didn't answer as a shockwave burst out from Naruko. With the burst four more chakra tails formed making nine in total. A skeletal structure appeared from thin air around Naruko. It took the shape of a four legged nine tailed animal.
While Naruko started growing in size muscles formed around the skeleton and completely covered Naruko leaving a growing nine tailed fox that had no skin or fur. Sasuke and Sakura saw that it was a fox when the muscles formed around Naruko.
Both Kankurō and Temari saw the number of tails and gasped when they realised who it was.
"She is the container of him? How in the hell did you manage that?" Kankurō asked practically shouting.
"And you letting her release him?" Kankurō continued shouting.
"Yes she is and you have nothing to fear. Unlike Gaara she is friends with him so he is on our side," Kakashi replied.
"Friends how is that possible?" Temari asked shocked at hearing that while Sakura and Sasuke were getting confused.
"Wait wait wait, what do you mean contains him, releasing him and is friends with him?" Sasuke asked shouting a bit.
"What you don't even know…"
"None of the kids that are seventeen and younger know about this," Kakashi cut Kankurō off.
"Like I said don't know about what?" Sasuke shouted getting a bit annoyed.
"Gaara is the container of the one tailed Bijū Shukaku while Naruko is the container of the Bijū Kyūbi no Yōko," Kakashi explained.
"I was hoping that you would find out from Naruko herself on her own terms," Kakashi said sadly.
"Kyūbi?" both Sasuke and Sakura said.
Kakashi didn't get to finish as another shock wave burst out from Naruko. When the dust cleared there stood a giant fox that was a fair few sizes bigger than Shukaku. The fox had orange red fur covering its body. Nine tails waved about behind the fox.
Instead of its usual two red eyes the left one is blood red while the right one is ocean blue. Naruko in her Bijū state stood proudly while growling at Shukaku.
"Yaaa! Why are you here, you damn fur ball?" Shukaku road in a high pitched voice.
"To put you back in your place, Shukaku. Or have you forgotten who is the strongest and that you NEED TO RESPECT YOUR BETTERS!" Naruko said in a dual voice, one being her demon voice and the other being Kurama's deep voice, before roaring near the end.
"What makes you so high and mighty? Especially after you have now allied with a pathetic human," Shukaku shot back in his high pitched voice.
"She is no human. She is a better demon then you ever were. And it seems that you have forgotten what happened the last time we battled," Naruko said in her dual voice.
"No hanyou can compare to a demon no matter who gave birth to them," Shukaku replied with anger in his voice.
"Why don't you come and prove that!" Naruko shot back.
"Yaaaaaaaaa," Shukaku roared before charging in.
Chapter 13
Next chapter Naruko vs Shukaku. Naruko as her Bijū state and it's different from the manga. The infamous snake Orochimaru makes an appearance. How will this affect things in the future?
Wonder if you saw that coming? A few more twists coming in the next chapter.
Chuunin exams going to start soon.
