Meanwhile In uonoha
The grass nin that had somehow snuck into the tunnels where the civilians and academy students were being kept and guarded were in for the fright of their life because though they managed to reach this far it would be as for as they would go because they had been forced to fight Iuka Umino and Anko Mitarashi who besides being bedfellows also often trained together and as a result Anko had offered Iuka the chance to sign her summoning contract for snakes. Which he enthusiastically agreed to, and now using his skills he had summoned a 25 foot long green python named Habu, while Anko had summoned a 15 foot long black viper named Mamushi to deal with the grass nin problem. "Why have you summoned us here Anko speak quickly or i shall kill you!"
"Oh shut up you stupid bitch, you couldn't kill me if you tried." Anko retorted back "why you little bitch how dare you" Mamushi told her summoner, "alright enough" Habu told his sibling and turned to Iruka and said "hello Iruka my boy how are you?" The snake asked his summoner "I am fine lord Habu, I am sorry to have disturbed you but we are in need of your help, war has come to Konoha and we don't have enough strength to deal with the entire enemy here not to mention we are also trying to protect the non-combatants." Iruka told the patient snake.
"I see, so you want us to deal with them as quickly and efficiently as possible i take it?" "Yes, my lord you may do with them as you wish afterwards." Iruka said in a loud voice scaring the frightened grass Nin even more.
"Ah excellent, that seems like a fair trade their lives for our services."Habu said with a maniacal smile showing all of his sharp and pointy teeth, come sister let us eat and have a feast he said turning to Mamushi, "All right for once I am in agreement with you my brother let's eat i missed lunch anyway." The two snakes then let out a loud and collective hiss before falling upon the grass nin, for the next few minutes the only thing that was heard were the death screams of The grass nin, although they tried to escape they were not able to and soon everything became quiet, deathly quiet that is, after looking at the scene left by the two serpents even a person such as Anko who never shied away from excessive violence or bloodshed was horrified at the scene left behind by the two serpents, when Habu and Mamushi returned.
"As you asked we helped you out Iruka my boy now if there is no other help you need it is time for us to return, however when this war is over and your Hokage has time tell her that the king of the serpent clan requests an audience with her at a time and place of her choosing and when that time comes summon me and me alone" Habu told his summoner, "Thank you lord Habu I will surely pass on the message. Iruka told the giant python, Mamushi just grinned and said "well it was fun and at least we got a meal out of it." Turning to Anko she said later bitch, and next time maybe i really will kill you" she said with a grin, "hah you couldn't kill me you cunt but anyway thanks," the two serpents nodded and disappeared in twin poofs of smoke.
Meanwhile
Sai and his squad of Anbu were having a hard time fighting the Sound ninja Yue was already dead most of the Anbu were either heavily injured or almost out of chakra. Sai himself was bleeding heavily from his wounds and Yamato had been knocked unconscious from his wounds using his special jutsu he created animals to carry the wounded ninja inside the hospital it had cost him almost a whole Anbu Squad but Sai had finally figured out the secret of the sound Ninja, it seemed that only the commanders had curse seals while the foot ninja did not. However he was still trying to find a way to beat them. "Hehe what's the matter can't you big strong leaf ninja even beat one guy like me."
"I am disappointed and here I heard so much about the vaunted Leaf ninja, although I must say the girls in this village do look good" he said with a perverted grin "maybe after taking over your village I will sample the girls from the village, especially the pink haired girl with the green eyes and that blonde with the blue eyes." "The pink one doesn't have much in the way of tits but she has a great ass and maybe I'll have the blonde suck my dick." "I might even invite them to bed with me for a little..."
Before he could finish his statement he was attacked by a huge stampede of ink beasts who attacked him from every possible direction although caught off guard the ninja was still able to kill almost all the beasts, but before he could finish he heard a voice say "Katon: HÅsenka Tsumabeni!" ("Fire Style: Phoenix Flower Shuriken Jutsu!") the sound ninja who was now trapped by the ink beasts could not move and as a result could not dodge the oncoming jutsu he was simultaneously engulfed in the flames while his body was pierced by the burning shurikens. " You shall hurt no-one else in this village, you shall leave this mortal coil today, only a coward forces his will upon women you have shown everyone today what kind of man you are." Sai said.
When the flames receded the Sound ninja was also breathing heavily but was still alive his curse mark now activated. "Why you son of a bitch you actually burned me and drew blood at the same time not only that you actually made me activate my curse mark, well I guess that means you're just going to die sooner because with my curse mark activated I become 10x more powerful."
"Oh is that so it seems like you are just boasting you sore excuse for a man," Sai said truly knowing anger for the first time in his life, in the back of his mind he briefly wondered if his loss of his senses had been triggered by the threat to his friends Ino and Sakura.
Suddenly the sound ninja disappeared from view and hit the former root ninja with kunai from all directions which he barely managed to dodge but one kunai still grazed his arm, causing Sai to collapse in pain. He quickly realized that the enemy had hit him with a poisoned kunai, however ignoring the pain and the poison rushing through his system he tried to once again get up but found he was unable to so he made a decision and closed his eyes and made a hand sign, suddenly all his wounds and the effects of the poison were seemingly gone, and he was able to once again rise and using his superior artistic skills he made a mass of ink clones to aggravate and flush out his opponent, suddenly he heard a shout of pain coming from within the trees in the west.
He then threw a bunch of exploding kunai in the direction of the shout hoping to flush out his opponent "what's wrong dickless? I thought you said with that curse seal of yours you were 10x stronger and could quickly kill me in a blink of an eye I guess you were mistaken but then what else can I expect from a dickless coward who's only goal in life is to rape women, but how would you even be able to rape them what with you being dickless and all." Sai continued to say in hopes of riling up his opponent and making him lose his cool and make mistakes.
His ploy worked because suddenly his enemy appeared in front of him and said "I'll show you who is a dickless coward he said and quickly made a few hand signs "Doton: Ishi Shouheki!" ("Earth Style: Enclosing Stone Walls!") suddenly four pillars of stone rose from the Earth and formed into a square and slowly began to close in on Sai who was trapped in the middle and began to crush him, the sound ninja started laughing and said" is that all you got you stupid idiot?" suddenly he was stabbed in the back by a shuriken the sound ninja howled in pain and turned around and saw Sai standing there in front of him looking relatively unharmed h-how did you escape my jutsu and how are you so fast you should be dead by now, the poison on that kunai was potent enough to kill an elephant, the sound ninja said "how I escaped is none of your concern since you will soon be dead anyway" then using his superb artistic skills and almost all of his remaining chakra he created a large group of ink clones and ink beasts to engage the sound nin.
The sound nin had been slow to move at first because it seemed like the shuriken embedded in his spine had been imbibed with Sai's chakra and as such was harder to get out, but just as he had finished removing the shuriken he was attacked by a barrage of ink beasts and clones, most of which he dispatched with his earth pillars jutsu, but for every ink beast or clone he managed to kill two more would pop up, "damn I am in a tight corner even with my curse seal I am having trouble killing this bastard" the sound nin thought to himself. While watching his inky creations battle the sound nin, Sai got a chance to catch his breath but every breath hurt "damn I already used all of my chakra and was already deeply wounded when I opened the two chakra gates even two gates hurt this much, how the hell are Gai and Lee able to withstand the pain of opening almost all the gates, it seems my body is failing fast with my muscles already under great strain due to the poison in my system opening the chakra gates just made the pain worse... but still I had to do it I am going to figure out his secret even if I die."He thought to himself, summoning up his courage and remembering his old root training Sai ignored the pain and created more ink beasts to fight, slowly he started to see a pattern, he realized that the sound nin while fighting his creations was able to overpower them most of the times but when they managed to attack him from behind and targeted the back of his neck he would try to kill those beasts even at the cost of having the beasts attack him from his other side.
deciding to test his theory he sent all his ink beasts towards his enemy's neck and when he found out his hunch was correct he came out of hiding and struck using all his Anbu stealth training he crept up behind his opponent unsheathed his tanto and cut the enemy ninja's head clean off his shoulders, but unfortunately he also got stabbed in the process with one of the poison Kunai.
Sai along with his enemy also fell, but using his sheer will power and the every last of his life force he wrote the information down on a scroll and transformed it into a bird and sent it in the direction of the battle commanders before falling to the ground unconscious.
Meanwhile the Ink bird that Sai had sent had finally reached the battle commanders Hiashi saw it first thanks to his superior eyesight and was sure it was one of Sai's birds but instead of the normal black this one was red... Blood red, quickly taking out a scroll he opened it and the bird landed on the piece of parchment and transformed into words. "Shibi, Shikaku please take a look at this it's a message from Sai " what is it did he uncover some important information?" Shibi asked. "yes, he did the best kind he figured out a way to kill the sound nin the only way to kill them is to pierce their throats or behead them also it seems that with the curse mark active the sound ninja are able to augment one part of their abilities, speed, stamina, strength etc. it also seems like while only the commanders have the curse seal the foot soldiers do not but they are still very strong and the only way to kill them is to either deliver a powerful neurotoxin or stab them through the heart" Hiashi said reading the scroll.
"Well that is truly good news" said Shibi "but something seems off, the ink he used is neither blue nor black that he usually uses no its red, blood red, Oh my god it seems the boy not having any ink fused his own blood with his chakra and using the last of his strength and life force he wrote down the information and sent it to us." "Does that mean he is dead?" Inoichi said, "it seems so, my friends please let us not dilly dally we must get this information to the troops right way" Hiashi said.
"Yes, your right" Inoichi said and then started to do a couple of hand signs and using his clans telepathic powers he was able to quickly pass along the message to his fellow clansmen, while Shibi did the same with his insects, the Inuzuka as well upon being told of the information started barking and howling as well.
While to most it seemed to be regular barking and howling the Inuzuka knew different because of their ability to understand the language of canines they were quickly able to understand the barks and howls coming from their fellow clansmen, with the information being distributed the sound ninja soon began to fall and the leaf ninja began to emerge victorious.
Shibi meanwhile after taking the scroll from Hiashi took it his hand and after having some of his insects check the blood said "Sai is still alive but barely if we can reach him in the next five minutes he may be saved." Shibi said "he is 850 meters east of here, it's too far for the Inuzuka to reach in time but we must try," he said "we cannot let his sacrifice be in vain we must save him."
Shibi said showing some rare emotion for once. "Wait East of here you say that's where the hospital is Sai is only 200 meters from the hospital I will tell Ino she will save him." Inoichi promised then using his telepathy he contacted his daughter.
"Ino-Chan it's me your father" Ino was in the middle of wrapping some bandages on a patient when she heard her father's voice, she jumped at his sudden intrusion, what is it dad I'm at the hospital with a patient, I know that Ino chan but Sai is lying wounded just 200 meters East of you he is in a near death state but if you can get to him in time maybe you can save him, hurry Ino chan."
"Oh no, poor Sai." Ino commented in a worried voice turning to a couple of Anbu standing guard outside the room she said "you two: Shark and Lion come with me, we have an injured leaf nin 200 meters east of her come with me help me get him here she then turned to Sakura and said "Sai is heavily wounded and is near death I'm going to save him I'll be back in a few minutes in the meantime prep the operation room" she said to her best friend. Sakura simply nodded and said "right" she then turned over her patient to a nurse and had the nurse check the patient while she and Shizune prepped the operation room.
A.N: Mamushi and Habu are two snakes found in Okinawa Japan if anyone was curious: well it seems Sai was finally able to crack the code, but it seems to be at the cost of his life, and what does the king of the serpent clan want with the Hokage? Find out next time on By Executive Orders.
