Well it's me anyway and we will continuing Naruto attempt to take over Western continent by liberating the western marine corps and Kurotengu now decided have more aggressive as they will send their newest weapon due of constant failure before we continuing the story let me answer some reviews
Animaman: Damn I admit you are right , that;s my mistake. Actually Shizune once move to Uzu in order to help Naruto establish medic nin corps in Uzu since Tsunade cannot participate and that's also the reason I'm removing her from harem because the relation between Naruto with her just brother sister relationship. And for Isaribi case don't worry 'm already think solution for her and next chapter I also make progress about Menma harem. And I will keep bashing Jiraiya and Kakashi ( as I don't want them being killed though Jiraiya probably will die thogh I still need to rethink about it) and it still need to wait a bit more about three idiots (Danzo, Homura and Koharu ) demise . They will come to it eventually
Stratos263: You probably need wait longer for Danzo demise
Let's continue the story
After heard one of their biggest factory completely annihilated, leader of Kurotengu alias Dark Vulture nowreally pissed. Dark Vulture average build man (his height was about 5'6 or 165-167 cm and he wear full set of black hakama. He has long black hair with some grey streak means he actuallly quite old ( about 60-70 years old . In his right hip strapped katana which sheated in black obsidian hilt.' I can't believe that Uzu and Konoha working together to destroy my war factory. And this mean we only have 2 factories which luckyly in remoted area. But the ones in Fire country is the biggest one due of large amount of resources there. Well,it seems I must resorted to use Silver plan."
And while Dark Vulture thinking, his granddaughter aka Shogun Vulture come to his room and bringing tea for him, " Grandpa , here is your tea." Said SV cheerfully and she tried to comfort her grandfather as she said,' No need to worry , Grandpa. We still have two other factories. We can rearrange plan to conquer elemental nations you know." Dark Vulture nodded and then he look to his mask which actually have dark tengu head. While almost have same color with ordinary tengu ninja mask. The difference of it was it also have mustache and some pure white insignia in it forehead which contrasted by mask basic colour. Dark Vulture smiled before he wore his mask and later he said, " You are right, Ruri-chan. We still have other factories but it seems we must switched to Plan B for a bit. Tell me Ruri-chan. How is Silver experiment progress?"
Shogun aka Ruri smiled, " It was great success. All he need now to do field test and he still struggled to choose where he can test his new masterpece." Dark now smiled though it not shown due of the mask, " Well, Ruri. Call Silver here, I want to talk with him face to face about his experiment." Ruri then bow and leaving her grandpa room while Dark now waiting Silver coming to his office.
Meanwhile back to Naruto genin, Nagisa cannot hide his curiosoty as he heard he and all of new recruits will join assault against pirate hideout which was located about 2 miles from marine base. The reason it just recently found because the pirates really good for hiding it as they disguise it as small trading post . Nagisa cannot help but being curious because Kalo said to them he want to test how good new recruit in fieldwork and use this assault as evaluation before bigger mission.
Nagisa then called Ryuuji, Keita, Kouta and Tatsumi. " I must tell you. Be on guard as that Kao guy probably want to seeif we are worth as his follower or he probably just want us and other new recruit as cannon fodder." All of his teammate nodded as they knew Nagisa have good perception compared to all ofthem so there is no reason for not believe in him. So they decided to continue their exercise while they thinking about their first duty as marine .
Meanwhile in Konoha , after finished their high profile mission, Naruko and Minami decided to soaked themselves in hotsprings while Menma going to Ichirakus to eating some ramen. But Menma somehow disappointed after he eat a bowl of ramen. He feel something off from the ramen as he usually ate about 3 bowl minimal but somehow he just wantto eat one. Turned out it was because the one who in Ichiraku stand aren't Teuchi and Ayame instead the ones who served them was new worker Matsu and Nishi. Matsu a white-skinned man with black hair which is trimmed very low and black eyes. He wears a white-coloured kimono and a bit or rope tied around his head. Nishi has short black, spiky, hair and black eyes. He has a small rope-like piece wrapped around his forehead acting as a headband. He wears a white chefs uniform that is the same as Matsu's.
The both newbie then told Menma Teuchi and Ayame going out for awhile and will return tomorrow as they currently restocking the ingredients for Ichiraku . Menma decided to just eat one bowl and after paying his meal he said, " Maybe you should learn more how to serve ramen from beginning as the ramen taste wasn't delicious like Teuchi-san and Ayame-san served." After that said, Menma walked out from Ichiraku as Matsu and Nishi thought, ' It seems we cannot satisfy Menma. Just hope, Hokage-sama won't react like that as Boss will be grounded us if he heard that."
And back to Uzu, Naruto just receive mission report from his kunoichi team which consisted, Eri, Nozomi and Nico. They told him the mission was complete success as they managed to escort the client to his home and they also help examine the client daughter and they managed to cure the disease . Now they currently rest in the client home as they really tired and will be back in 2 or 3 days. They also told him, in middle of sailing they encounter the small group of pirates lead by 3 brothers and they listed as B rank criminal due of their expertise of taijutsu especially they capable fight in boat despite how unstable the field. What made the Uzukage surprised because his genin team yold him they almost have same class with current Rock Lee only without his speed which made him worry about them. But they managed to overwhelm the three brothers thanks to their expertise in kenjutsu.
Naruto finished reading the report and later he remember something he forgotten very long ago, ' Damn how can I forget about Shouji . I hope he not mad against me.' Naruto then made telephaty contact with his cone in ecchi world (he dubbed it like that. AN dafter few minutes they connected as Shouji spoke first, " Boss why you never contact me. It almost one year since you last contact me. And I cannot make connection to you because it will be reduce my capability here. So tell me what should I do now since I managed to got more than half citizen and thousands of ninja and samurai to fight with me. So you want to act now or still wait." Naruto only said, " Well, first I'm sorry for not contacting you for very long time since I'm really busy because my kage duty . You know Akatsuki decided to take break for a while so I want use this opportunity to return order in western continent due of conflict as their emperor recently died due coup d'etat and we just recently retake the capital but now the other territoty in continent now gone rogue though some of them because heir corrupt leader so we decided to slowly approach them and if they refuse to cooperate then we eliminate them and replace with the leader who want to cooperate with us and make the people happy again." That explanation made Shouji nod understanding though Nauto cannot see it.
Naruto continued, " And as for your order now. I think since you wait too long. I guess you must start desroyed the small forces of Tokugawa Shogunate and if possible turn Manyuu clan into your allies and use Kotoamatsukami if needed thoughrefrain from using it and also slave seal for some insurance." Shouji only replied, yes, Boss. I'll do it. And do you have any order boss?" Naruto only said, " No . So you better prepared as I really busy now. So bye . I'll contact you again next month. Only this time I'll make sure make reminder seal so I won't forget again. So see you next month." Naruto then disconnect his mind link as Shouji said despite Naruto not heard him anymore, " You better be , boss. Otherwise I just use kagebunshin to remind you despite I will be quickly disappear despite my ability to recover myself." Shouji then back to his routine in this so called ecchi world.
Meanwhile,back to Nagisa and co now already dressed in marine corps uniform and boarding on military ship which sailing to pirate headquarters. It only take one hor and few minutes to arrive at the dock thanks the when they moving out to attack the hideout, they saw the pirates who dressed like fisherman currently drunk and they not anticipated marine will attack them. But the pirates only gave signal so they can summon thheir friends to prepared for attack. But the marine new recruit quickly overwhelmed them as they have resolve to finish their job and that pirate hideout turned out to brawling zone as the marine recruit actually was for mer thug so they fight like street brawler which made Tatsume embarassed as they remind him when he still thug before Naruto took him.
Since they see their fellow marine not met any trouble, Nagisa and co decided to explore more and finally they arrived in large warehouse which occupied by large number of pirates which consisted about forty to fifty thugs. Keita then said, "Since outside already handled by others. Maybe we should fight the ones here." Kouta only nodded as he shut the door and locked it to ensure no one escaped. One of the pirates then said, " Well kids it seems you lost your mind. You think just five of you can handle fifty person huh." Ryuuji replied, " Well unless we try we won't know the result right . So who wants to be knocked out first." Ryuuji then made battle stance and made, 'come here ' gesture which made the pirate pissed and all of them charged to five teenager simultaneously.
Of course the pirates wasn't match for that shinobi as when then thugs charged toward them Nagisa moved so fast and suddenly he already behind some of thugs and moment later some the thugs fallen unconscious as Nagisa hit their necks . And later all of them followe example as Tatsumi, Ryuuji and Keita using their own taijutsu to knocked all of them while Kouta only able to knock very few as they are the weakest when it comes to physical fight. And this situation cannot caled as fight as it just one sided slaughter as it not need more than fifteen minutes to knocked down all of pirates. Nagisa then ordered Kouta to observe another room so he can help the others and maybe the pirates have some information eventhough it mist unlikely but better than nothing right.
And Kouta then walking around the pirate base and witness all pirates still fighting with marines while Nagisa and others collecting some loot without being caught by other marines and of course Geibi since the bulky man was the one lead the assault. And when Kouta arrived near random room, he heard some noise which caused by Geibi who currently beaten up the man and from what Kouta heard he asumed the one beaten up by Geibi was the leader. Kouta then take a peek and he saw Geibi grab the man shirt while he saw 2 man lied down in floor but they look battered. Kouta just assumed Geibi beaten them up
Geibi then talked something to the pirate leader which cannot heard by Kouta but he assuming Geibi just interrogated him and after few minutes Geibi threw the man to wall made him unconscious. And after few seconds suddenly Geibi moved so fast to door which Kouta used to peeking . Kouta who felt danger then quickly stepped away from the door and made some hand sign as he silently called out "TRANSPARENT ESCAPE JUTSU" and Kouta body now turned invisible and he quickly escape by sneaking out so his step woon't heard by Geibi or maybe other pirates.
And when Geibi come out from the room , he getting confused as he found no one there yet he felt someone peeking here. Geibi then muttered, " I swear I felt someone behind this door. Aaah forget it maybe I'm just worrying too better pick this criminal as he won't cooperate with us. " Geibi then single handedly picked the pirates leader and heading out.
Meanwhile Nagisa, Ryuuji, Tatsumi and Keita now tied the thugs they fought as they already emptied the room by pilfering entire room. And when the other marines wants to help them, they saw so many pirates fallen unconscious and one of them said, " You four managed to beat all of them." While the other marines sweating while Keita replied by said, " Actually there is other one who helped us, and now he currently searching if any pirates still hiding." ANd few minutes later Kouta appeared and told them everything under control and just wait their commander.
Commander Geibi then back and order the soldier to take the pirates to prisoner ship who just come and gave order to back home after congratulated the marine recruits for their success in capturing the pirates. Of course so many marines recruit proud being acknowledged by their commander while the five genins from uzu being skeptical as Kouta told them that Geibi person maybe in league with Kao so they also keep eye with him.
Meanwhile in Konoha ,since Menma doesn't want to eat ramen , he decided to visit his aniki restaurant Sangokushi Oriental. He probably will ate some gyoze there. But when he arrive he saw Kushina currently eating there. And he also saw his mother not eating alone as she accompanied by mother of his teammate minus Hinata mother due of obvious reason.
The first one was his mother old riend Mikoto Uchiha , she wore her daily outfits, dark purple blouse with dark red shinobi pants. The next one was has long, dark brown hair usually kept in a low ponytail with three strands framing her face, fair skin and dark eyes. she was seen in a pink blouse and dark-coloured skirt along with an apron over it. She also wears a pair of simple hoop earrings. She is Yoshino Nara , Shikamaru mother.
The next one has light brown eyes without pupils, and brown hair which is tied into a bun with a red ribbon in it. Strands frame both sides of her face, hanging over her ears from behind them. She is fair skinned, and slight wrinkles are visible near her mouth. Her attire consists of a dark teal elegant dress, which sports an aquamarine coloured gem below the collar. She is Midori Yamanaka, Ino Yamanaka mother.
The next one has fat errr chubby body with short, black hair and eyes which are accentuated by orange markings at each corner. She also wear a light shade of lipstick, a pair of red, stud earrings along with a high-collared Chinese purple blouse which has gold trimmings and the clan's obligatory kanji for "food" on the back, a pair of pants, and heeled sandals. She is Aoko Akimichi , Chouji Akimichi mother
And the last in the group was feral looking woman She has long, spiky, untamed brown hair, vertical slit-like pupils, elongated canine teeth and nails. She also has the clan fang markings on her cheeks as well as markings over her eyes and a dark shade of purple lipstick. She wears the standard outfit of a Konoha shinobi consisting of flak jacket and a black suit underneath with the sleeves rolled up and bandages around her legs. She is Tsume Inuzuka , Kiba mother.
Menma just ignored them as it probably just women talk so he ignored them while he going to order takeout since he decided to eat at home and he also ordering for Naruko and Minami unless they want to eat in Ichiraku where Teuchi and Ayame currently absent..
And let's turn our attention to Kushina. Kushina looked surprised as she heard something quite surprising . The news actually not really surprising , but Kushina always ooverreacted you kno as she said, " WHAT1 So you, Aoko and Midori will going to Noodle country wwith your family to attend Noodle Festival there. I'm not wrong right , Yoshino?" Yoshino, Aoko and Midori only nodded to confirm it and after bit silent Yoshino said, " That's right Kushina, we will be attendthat festival though it seems only Aoko, Choza and Chouji who were excited about it. And Ichiraku will be closed for awhile as they will participate in that event too."
That made Kushina (and Menma who trying to listen slumped down as not only three of her friends will going for trip but also Ichiraku will be going for long time though Kushina sure she can survive without Ichiraku for a week as it will be better than her favorite ramen shop managed by two idiots Matsu and Nishi. Well at least she can cook ramen for her family thoug while she good in cooking her own ramen still cannot beat Ichiraku's
Kushina then decided to ignored it and continuing to talk with her fellow mother and ended with drunk party. Good thing Tsunade not there as it will be turned into riot there. And the drink party continued till a bit late. Good thing Minato already knew earlier as Kushina already infor med him and children she will be late so he decided to eat at Akimichi instead Ichiraku (for obvious reason of course)
And back to Naruto, he now face 4 of his hunter nin team Four devas ( Naruto though they lacked members to keep their title Juushinshu) and after making sure four of them attend, Naruto then said, "Kurei, Neon, Raiha , Kai. I will give you new order. Starting tomorrow you all will be move to Western continent to set up base in east coast near the marine corps. Sooner or later we will be take over the marine from the corrupt admiral Kao and we will assist the legitimate leader Admiral Chouryu who will be arrive at western marine corps in few days. You will be teamed up with genin team I already sent before. They already infiltrate the marine base with disguise as marine soldier . I expect you fully cooperate with them . And after this take over ended you will be actively help in battle to freein remains of Western continent. And don't worry about your expenses. Empire force will be funding you all though I will pay your pocket money for this first. Before I ended it any question?"
Raiha raised his hand and start spoke after Naruto motioned him to talk, " Excuse me , Uzukage-sama. Is that mean we will be stationed in western continent for long time?" Naruto answered,"Yes, Raiha. You all will be permanently stay in western part as I need some higher level officer like you four as you will be handle the government work there once we take over the marine corps. Though you can still back to Uzu if you have legitimate reason to back. May I ask why you asked this question?" Raiha only replied, " I just curious Uzukage-sama. Anyway thanks for the feedback." Naruto then spoke again, " Well I'm happy I can answer your question anyway more question for me?" The Four Devas shook their head and Naruto then said, " Fine you dismissed then and I recommend to depart at dawn as I'll also send some equipment to establish base nearby so you can help the base and stay there until you can act to assist the genin understood?" The four person replied, "HAI!" Naruto smiled, " well then go now." As he said that the four of elites now vanished leaving Naruto alone to continue doing his paperwork.
And back to Nagisa and friends , after finished their mission they currently in kitchen duty as it was their turn to serve the fellow marine for entire today. Turned out the marine recruits really liked their cooking (though the one who do cooking was Nagisa, Keita and Ryuuji while Kouta and Tatsumi just carrying the ingredients). That made all of Uzu genin have thought, ' Naruto-sama will be love to hear this cause it seems even westerners love his cooking as we made it completely copying his recipe.'
While they continuing serving the fellow marine, Kouta actually look tired . Keita who noticed it sid, " Kouta maybe you should sleep earlier . You look really fatigued today." Kouta only nodded as he bow to apologize he cannot help more and quickly walked of from dining hall. Ryuuji knew what happened said, " I guess it was happened because that duty." Nagisa then look interested as he asked, " What do you mean by that Ryuuji?" Ryuuji said , " I'll tell you when we eat." The other three nodded as they still have duty to fulfill.
And 30 minutes later after finishing serve everyone meals. The four genin then took their meal portion. And as his promise, Ryuuji then told them about their duty as they escorting prisoner to underwater prison. And that prion filled by so many prison. But the reason Kouta not feeling well because when he saw the corpse inside the one cell which located at basement. The officer then told him that was used to higher level criminal to torturing them as they felt direct death was too kind for them. And then the officer told him to collect the corpse to dump the corpse into sea later.
After Ryuuji finished the story, Nagisa grip the table as he thought, ' I cannot believe people here take pleasure for torturing the prisoner just because they do bad thing. Even Uzukage-sama ordered us to do quick kill as he opposed torture only it was really necessary. I hope I can kill that Kao and his underlings sooner or later.'
And back to Konoha, The Ino-Shika –Cho family already in front of east gate as they will departed to Noodle country to attend noodle festival there (Though only Akimichis the only one really enthusiastic while the Nara male only muttered 'troublesome trip' which made them earned clean hit by frying pan jutsu courtesy of Yoshino Nara while the Yamanakas only silent as they now how to comment this situation.) But to their surprise , they got companion in form of Hiruzen Sarutobi. When Shikaku , Inoichi and Choza asked, the old Sarutobi only answered,
I just want to tag along with you all. Beside It' been awhile since my last trip. You don't mind I come with you right." Of course all of Ino-Shika-Cho won't dare to refuse the sandaime hokage request though Yoshino Nara try be tough as she said, " Excuse me , Sarutobi-sama. But we will travel as ninja can you keep up with us?"
Of course hearing that made tick mark appear in his forehead as the former Hokage said, " How rude of you, Yoshino-chan. Just because I'm retired doesn't mean I'm not stopping all I want to come with you because there is the chance I can meet with Naruto-kun as he also known of his cooking because his prowess as Uzukage." The group only nodded understanding as they knew Naruto relationship with Sandaime Hokage actually like grandfather and grandson bonds despite not related by blood. Akimichis also knew Naruto is the only one who can match them when it related to food. And turned out neither Chouza, Aoko and Chouji never beat him when it comes to eating contest (though Naruto later discontinued the event due of large amount of food eaten by him and Akimichis and it gave him quite loss.) And later the group departed from Konoha gates quickly as they will arrived at tomorrow morning at Noodle country (the event started 3 days from they departed) so they can take look the country and also to meet up with Lord Chikara and Lady Fuku the couple leader of Noodle Country especially Ino due of her mission with Naruto few years ago. Ino can wait Chouji family reaction if they met with Chikara and Fuku as they will thought they met their distant relative (Made it pun? I know)
Meanwhile in unknown place Dark Vulture spoke with one of his general , Silver Vulture. Silver was a tall and skinny man which have silver short hair and silver tengu mask though the shape of mask looked like made from metal as the nose was pointy. He wore white tuxedo set with white cape. Silver then opern the conversation as he said, " So , Yami-sama . Can I ask why you are entering my lab here since you usually just summon me to your office?" Dark Vulture responded," Well Silver the reason I'm visit because I want to see your progress of your science project. I heard you managed to created artificial bijuu. Can you tell me how tou managed to do that?"
The Silver vulture chuckled, " Well, Yami-sama. I'm actually collected chakra residue from bijuu in Lightning country recently since they are the ones who most active used their bijuu compared the other four great nations. I'll also do that in Kiri and Suna though. I'm not collect the Kyuubi residue due of their security when it comes to Bijuu. True they are more loose but they more subtle as they let themselves being infiltrated only to capture the ones who infiltrated them later."
The Dark Vulture only nodded understanding as Konoha always lured their enemy in only captured them soon. That was the reason why his attempt to kidnapping Fire Daimyo daughter to get some tribute from Fire Country fail completely as Their attempt thwarted by twelve guardian ninjas and turned out the princess wasn't pushover as she was elite samurai which can go toe on toe against jonin level shinobi which made tengu ninja which majority only about high genin level cannot do much against Fire Daimyo princess and Twelve Guardians Ninja and ensure the failure.
That also made Kurotengu lost some soldiers just to kidnapping the princess only ended to complete failure. That of course made the Kurotengu leader rethink his decision to kidnapping political figure as he not calculating about Twelve Guardian ninja and the princess capability to fight. So he decided to research more about any political figure which can kidnapping easily and he found out he only have better chance if he aim the lesser country and he already decided he will aim the Pearl Daimyo daughter as the Pearl princess actually was sheltered and spoiled child. The only problem is since the location of Pearl country near of Kirigakure , he must be extra careful and there is possibility Uzu will be interfere. The only advantage of him was because the country not really fond of ninja as they afraid ninja will take over their country (paranoid so much) But they realize they cannot stay in their own fear so they start open to foreigner even though they still have yet to make alliance with shinobi country especially the Five Great Nations (I'm not include Uzu as they don't have country size territory )which will be used as Kurotengu advantage later. But that should be wait as they now have artificial bijuu to test.
Silver said, " Maybe we will release it in Noodle Country and if somehow failed I still have more in basement." That made Dark Vulture raised eyebrow (though cannot seen due of the mask) , " What do you mean, Silver-kun?" Silver face palmed before he said, " Seriously, yami-sama? Are you don't know there will be Noodle Festival will be held in Noodle Country in three days. And that event will be attended by thousands of people. Isn't it great opportunity to show our power to entire Elemental Nations?" Dark only nodded and he said, " Well, ok I got it. I guess age took so much from me and that made me lost. I'm still grateful not suffered by back pain." Meanwhile certain old Tsuchikage sneezed , " Huh someone must be talking about me. I guess I must stretched myself first. " But when he stretched himself suddenly crack voice heard. " OUCH! MY BACK! SOMEONE PLEASE!" Shouted the Tsuchikage. Meanwhile outside Tsuchikage office, " Did you hear something?" Said Iwa nin. "It just our Tsuchikage-sama. It seems his back pain come again. He should retire soon I thought." Said his partner which nodded by him.
And back to Konoha, since today was their off day , Naruko and Minami decided to visit their friends , Fire Daimyo princess . And since they already placed Hiraishin seal nearby Fire Daimyo palace, they just need a second to arrive in palace. And when the Uzunami sisters arrive . The princess already waited for them.
The princess herself was gorgeous and beautiful woman who looked at her early twenties with her purple amethyst eyes and long honey blonde hair that flows and reach her waist. She wore regal crimson red kimono which fit in her voluptuous body. She is Eriko Takamiya daughter of current Fire Daimyo, Kazuki Takamiya.
The princess really glad when he saw her friends and (unofficial) bodyguard come to pay visit. Since they have their own duty and responbilities. They rarely met up each other. So when she heard both of Naruko and Minami just recently got vacation, Eriko decided to write formal invitation to them so they can visit them (Though it considered as misuse of authority). Good thing her parents not mad to her though they also told her she just need to ask if she want to invite her friends . After all the Fire Daimyo was good friend with Yondaime Hokage.
The princess then said, " So, Naruko-chan, Minami-chan can you tell me about your last mission since you two only told me in letter and you only said about destroying high level criminal organization weapon factory in Fire Country." Naruko and Minami then told her everything on their mission which made the princess make starry eyes due of being amazed for their story and while their talked suddenly someone familiar come to the princess room and tha person is no one but Lady Shijimi.
Naruko and Minami who saw her then gave respectful bow before Naruko said, " Shijimi-sama can you remove your genjutsu please?" (Actually Shijimi used genjutsu to made her look like middle aged woman despite her real appearance which look like early thirty despite she already on her mid forties. (That was opposite from Tsunade who use genjutsu to made her looked like mid twenties despite already in her fifties though she not needed it anymore due of Naruto so she already back in her early thirty look)
Lady Shijimi only sighed , " Well, if you said so Naruko-chan." Shijimi then made certain handseal and said, "KAI" and some smoke appear covering Shijimi entire body. And when the smoke banished, instead round and middle aged woman, now appearing the beautiful woman in her thirties with long dark blonde hair and red eyes. She still wore the same outfit like her public appearance only it more fitted to her body.
Minami commented," At least it better, Shijimi-sama. Though it sems only our family know about your true appearance." Shijimi only smiled and she asked," Thanks, Naruko-chan and Minami-chan. Oh I almost forgot something important. Can you gave this box to your older brother? I cannot use delivery service due of the important thing contained there . I know today was your holiday so I will ask Minato-kun to extend your holiday , OK?" Of course Naruko and Minami only said, " That won't be necessary , Shijimi-sama. We can travel via Hiraishin and can arrive in seconds just like we do earlier today." But when both of sisters said that, Eriko suddenly interrupt the conversation, " Haha-ue, if it's alright can I join Naruko-chan and Minami-chan? I also want to meet Naruto-sama."
Madam Shijimi at first reluctant but later remembered the kidnapping attempt to her daughter as she saw her daughter can defend herself properly due of her training in Fire Temple made her daughter at least jonin level. She also remember Uzu was really safe and even somehow danger appeared if what Naruko and Minami said was true, they can quickly transported Eriko to Fire Palace. "Fine, you may go. But only for one day. I want you three going back tomorrow morning .Understood." Eriko nodded rapidly as she now very happy as her mother allowed her to going trip with her best friends.
Naruko then said, " Well, it decided that we will depart now unless you want pack first, Eriko-chan." But Eriko shook her head, " That won't necessary, Naruko-chan. We only stay that for one night after all." Minami then spoke, " Okay before we depart can I ask favor , Shijimi-sama?" Shijimi replied, " What favor, Minami-chan?" "Don't tell tou-san and kaa-san about our destination can you di that for us?" Shijimi nodded weakly as she knew about Naruto relationship with his family years ago. She actually really pissed when she heard Minato and Kushina treatment to their eldest made her asked her husband to punish Konoha for neglection of Naruto though the eldest son of Uzunami said it won't be necessary as now he is adult and will be act as Uzukage . Kazuki and Shijimi then decided to punish Konoha with other way and that was to funding Uzushiogakure rebuild using the half of fund which should be used to funding Konoha for few years until Uzu completely rebuild .Good thing Uzu was completely finish rebuilding in just two years so Konoha able to got usual amount of funding.
And while the punishment in progress , once again Minato discover some corruption in council which able to proven thanks to Fire Daimyo involvement. Despite the Yondaime Hokage managed to disbanded previous corrupt council and took their treasury due of the result of their corruption, there is more corruption there since the corruption spreaded to some smaller merchant as they forging taxes income to got more funds. Minato then interrogated the suspected and they admit they are guilty. Minato then ordered them to return the fund they got from money laundry to Konoha treasury or they will thrown to Konoha asylum Six level protocol. Of course the merchant group decided to return the fund cause the prison with six level protocol was the worst prison as the prison naturally only very dangerous and high risk criminal.
Eriko said, " Naruko-chan, Minami-chan. Let's go. I'm cannot wait to meet with Naruto-sama again." Naruko and Minami nodded with enthusiasm as they also wanted to meet their oniichan. SO Naruko said," Very well then, Minami let's transfer your chakra to mine . So I won't ended exhausted." Minami nodded as she knew HIRAISHIN using large amount of chakra especially if used for long distance travel . But while Minami started to transferring her chakra to Naruko Eriko suddenly interrupted, " Can you use my chakra too?" Naruko and Minami shook their head as the former explained to the princess, " I'm sorry princess but if you doing that you probably suffer chakra exhaustion and no offense to you but you only have high chuunin level chakra so it was impossible to transfer chakra as it need at least low jounin chakra and excellent chakra control and only tousan, kaasan, oniichan and Naruko can do it properly while I'm not able do that properly despite I'm really good in my chakra control."
Eriko nodded understanding eventhough she was a bit pissed due Naruko and Minami indirectly said she was weak. Granted she cannot used ninjutsu , but her kenjutsu at least can make her hold her own against jonin level opponent. She even have ninja trainer for her own. But she also knew it wasn't wise to angry as Naruko and Minami only stated fact and they don't mean to insulting her. So she only nodded as she watch the progress of chakra transferring until finished and then Naruko grab her and Minami and they disaapeared in orange flash. Shijimi who witness them amazed as she said, " No matter how many I saw it, HIRAISHIN always never cease to amaze me."
And it won't be long as Naruko, Minami and Eriko arrived in front of Uzukage office. And they also sense (Naruko and Minami only) Naruto was inside and do what kage always do, paperwork. And Naruto who saw them greeted them and kissing Naruko and Minami on their cheeks though it made both Uzunami girls pouted as they expecting Naruto will be more intimate to both of them. 'At least kiss in lips ' thought both sisters. Naruto then turned his attention to Eriko and he bow as he said with polite tone, " Welcome to Uzushiogakure Eriko-hime. I hope my humble place is good enough for you."
Eriko only giggled as she said, " Thanks for that, Naruto-sama. Anyway mother wants me to gave you this." Eriko then took out the sealing scroll and unsealed the content inside. It was medium size box which covered by silver wrapping paper. Eriko then handed the box and Naruto took it. Naruto then unwrapped the box and when he saw the content he was really excited. That was because the box contained full set of excellent quality of fuuinjutsu tools set. While Naruto has his own custom fuuinjutsu tools, he still happy accepted the gift .
Naruto then put the box nto his safe and said to Eriko, "Thanks, Eriko-hime .please give my gratitude to Lady Shijimi .Anyway since you are here how about you touring around Uzu. And Naruko and Minami can you accompany her? I'm still busy now but I'm promise we meet again in dinner. I'll be waiting in my home." Eriko then walking around Uzu accompanied by Naruko and Minami. In her trip around Uzu she saw Uzu was really great village despite Naruto placing so many siege weapons and high wall as defense but the place really look peaceful as this village itself was beautiful and she also saw the front of the most dangerous place in Uzu, Forest of spirits. Not many people allowed to enter that area as the forest not only filed by wild beast but also made anyone entered there will be affected by high level genjutsu The three girls then continuing their trip around Uzu and they also saw so many civilians and shinobi helped each other .
And they not realize it almost night as they arrived at beach area in Uzu and saw sunset view there. The three ladies decided to witness the sunset before they returned to Naruto home. The girls actually have same thought, 'Too bad , Naruto-sama / Oniichan cannot stay with us.' Meanwhile certain Uzukage sneezed when he just want to view his last stack of his paperwork today. Good thing he almost finished his work today as he just need to view the last one. The last one cannot be considered as paperwork as it was actually a formal invitation from Noodle Country Daimyo Chikara and his wife Fuku to attend Noodle festival which will be held after tomorrow and it will be last for 3 days. Naruto decided to attend it though despite he not really close to Chikara and Fuku ( Ino was the ones who close to them). Though he probably must skip his work again . But this time something bad won't be happened right. (Well if it was right Naruto-kun)
Meanwhile near border of Noodle country, Large squadron of tengu ninja currently establishing base nearby as Silver Vulture now currently gave orders to his squad and he saw the very big portal currently build by his soldier. This portal actually will be used to transport the new biological weapon of Silver Vulture. ' Well just wait , in 2 days, Noodle Country will be no more. Huhuhuhuhu' Silver chuckled as he though how his favorite pet will cause mass destruction.
Now at another part of western continent , Kurei and his loyal follower with some Uzu ANBU just recently arrived at small island which located about 30 miles from Marine Island fortress. After he and co was arrived , he saw the familiar figure and turned out that was Fuuka .Fuuka then told Kurei and Uzu Anbu about Admiral Kao attempt to kill his fellow Admiral Chouryo with his loyal follower and Kao will send new recruit disguised as pirate to attack Chouryo and then Kao will be act as back up and drowned Chouryo fleet and the 'pirate ' and leave no witness and then Kao can gave false report about Chouryo demise. Doesn't want let that happen as it will be hindrance for Naruto plan for unite Western continent, Kurei decided to quickly established the fleet to intercept Kao and will be rescue the genin squad .Meanwhile Fuuka who finished the report decided to return to Uzu as her job already finished and Kurei will take care of the rest.
And back to Konoha group which consisted by Ino-Shika-Cho family plus Hiruzen Sarutobi just recently arrived at Noodle Country and they are greeted by Chikara and Fuku. Ino then asked if they also invited Naruto. The couple said they alreay invited Naruto and the Uzukage already gave their reply though he will be made Konoha group (especially Ino and Hiruzen ) glad. Now all they need just make themselves before the event started. Of course it will be good opportunity for Shikaku and Shikamaru to strolling around to find good place where they can lie down and observing the the ladies ( Ino, Midori, Yoshino and Aoko.) decided to look around and doing some shopping while Chouza and Chouji as usual looking place for eating . Hiruzen and Inoichi decided to tag along with Akimichi father and son duo.
And back to Uzu. After stay a night in Naruto place. Naruko , Minami and Eriko decided to going back to Fire Capital as Eriko already promised to her mother she only going for just one day. Naruto then decided to saw their depart as Naruko, Minami and Eriko vanished in flash before Naruto going back to his office to doing his usual activities, paperwork (grumble grumble).
And when Naruto just prepared to do his daily paperwork suddenly and ANBU appeared and gave hims message scroll. Naruto dismiss the ANBU then read the content. It was from Kurei and it told him about their arrival nearby western marine corps. Naruto smiled when he heard it as it means they are ready to capture Kao when he will be ready to assault Chouryo fleet. Now the Uzukage just need to wait.
And at the same time Nagisa and co currently preparing in order to destroy Chouryo fleet though they are planned to infiltrate Kao ship and killed him with his loyal follower like Geibi and Ikubi. The five also need to prepare in case the Marine elite squad also interfere since they actually was Kao loyal follower. A night before, marine who loyal to Admiral Zhu delivering some scroll to hat five before quickly and when they read it ther surprised about the fact Marine corps actually have their own elite corps and if the description was true all of the fifty elite members including their own commander have capability of average jounin and there is also the fact Geibi actually was elite member once before he got promotion from Kao
And also Kurei prepared Uzu fleet to assist Chouryo and also help Nagisa and others and hoping they can quickly intercept Kao fleet so there won't be unnecessary bloodshed.
And the sea battle which determined fate of western continent marine corps will be started soon.
To be continued.
