On with the story xD

(Konoha: With Jiraiya and Shikamaru)

"Naruto… has changed when he left Konoha. His love for the village evaporated into thin air and he wanted no relations with Konoha anymore," Jiraiya explained sadly. Shikamaru was baffled and slightly outraged that the village would do this to Naruto. He blamed it on the village for mistreating his friend so badly to make him turn on them and change so greatly. Jiraiya sighed. "Naruto trained hard everyday until it was 4 a.m. in the morning. He wouldn't eat, sleep, drink, or even speak. Just ANBU hand signals like he's in the Third Great Shinobi War or something. Heck he wouldn't even look at me or tell me how he learned the ANBU hand signals." Shikamaru widened his eyes. That wasn't the Naruto he knew. Well, he used to know after the damn Council banished him for something he didn't do and could control.

Jiraiya looked out the window with a faraway look in his eyes. "He changed…changed too much."

Shikamaru sighed and looked out the window. 'Judging by the sun's position it's almost 3 p.m. troublesome.' He sighed and looked at Jiraiya.

He spoke, "You can tell me about Naruto later. You have a deadline. Naruto said to meet him at the Suna gate at 3 p.m. sharp or else he'll torture you with his strongest genjutsu." Jiraiya paled instantly and you could see sweat falling down on the side of his face. He gulped and chuckled nervously. "I'm dead. I'm soooo dead." Shikamaru sweatdropped. "Meet back here at 9 p.m. sharp tonight," Jiraiya shouted while jumping out the window leaving a perplexed Shikamaru behind. Shikamaru sighed and looked lazily at the ceiling. 'Naruto… How strong are you? Tch… troublesome blonde.' Shikamaru sighed again and walked out the door. On his face, you could see a hint of a smile.

(Suna Gate: 3 p.m.)

Naruto disguised himself in a henge as a regular Suna civilian. His normally spiky blonde hair turned into a shaggy brown and his eyes turned brown. His usual shinobi attire turned into a loose white-buttoned down shirt with a brown vest over it and baggy black pants along with brown sandals. He had a loose brown bag over his shoulder and a toothpick hanging out of his mouth. His hair covered his eyes as he looked down at the ground. Naruto smirked slightly. 'He's late… I'll have pleasure when I persecute him.' Then there was a huge puff of smoke in front of him and the Toad Sage appeared before him. Naruto smiled slightly and looked up. "You're… late." Jiraiya fell down on the ground with anime tears and started to beg for forgiveness. "Please! Please! Please! Please!" Naruto's eyebrow twitched. "Fine! Just shut up and follow me!" He snapped. Jiraiya stopped and breathed a sigh of relief.

Naruto smirked. "On second thought, maybe I should." Jiraiya shaked his hands together and said, "I'll do anything! Just don't!"

"Anything?"

"Yes! Anything!"

"Okay. Don't write your perverted series for a year or peek in the women bathhouse for the same time."

Jiraiya wept on the ground while rocking back and forth. Naruto smirked and said, "Let's go. He's waiting." Jiriaya sighed and followed Naruto to the HIdden Sand Village while cying over his series and cursing the blonde at the same time.

(Konoha)

Shikamaru walked lazily in the hospital to visit his teammate, Ino. He asked the nurse where she was and walked his way. Jiriaya's voice started to ring in his head. "He changed…changed too much." Shikamaru sighed and walked through the door to visit Ino.

(Ino's Room)

Shikamaru sat down on a chair next to Ino's bed and stared at the vase with flowers. Her parents visits her frequently everyday trying to see if their daughter was okay. Ino had wires on her arms and on her head to check her brain waves for any trauma from the incident. Shikamaru sighed. He was startled when he heard a voice, "It was Naruto, wasn't it?" Ino was awake, staring at the ceiling. Shikamaru raised an eyebrow. "How do you know?" Ino chuckled dryly. "I overheard on a mission." Shikamaru sighed. "Tell me."

Ino sighed. "Remember when I came back in a coma a few weeks ago?" Shikamaru nodded.

(Flashback)

"I'll get some water, okay?" Ino said to her team as she stood up. Her team consisted of Chikako ("clever" in Japanese) Hanarashi, Akio ("bright boy" in Japanese) Fujita, Haya ("quick" or "light" in Japanese) Suzuki, Juro ("best wishes: long life" in Japanese) Matsumoto, and Yemon ("guarding the gate" in Japanese) Yoshida.

"Sure! Go on ahead!" Akio said cheerfully. He had brown hair with his bangs covering his right side like Ino, green eyes, fit body, and looked very energetic. He had the ANBU uniform on and a racoon mask.

"Just don't get lost!" Haya said. She had long blonde hair in a bun, blue eyes that reminds Ino of Naruto but more lighter, skinny but fit body, and looked very kind. She had the ANBU uniform and a cheetah mask. Ino smiled and said, "Don't worry. As long as you're on your guard I'm fine." Chikako, Juro, and Yemon chukled.

Chikako was a bit short for her age, only 5'3 ft tall, with short purple hair and purple eyes. She wore the ANBU uniform and had the dolphin mask. Juro was tall with messy black hair and gray eyes. He wore the ANBU uniform and had the turtle mask. Yemon was tall with black hair that had red highlights and brown eyes. He wore the ANBU uniform and had the skunk mask.

Ino smiled and walked away to find a river for water.

Sooner or later, Ino found a river that had no bad stuff in it and started to fill up the bottles. Then she heard footsteps from across the river. (She has good hearing skill) She quickly gathered the bottles, sealed them in a scroll, and jumped up on a nearby tree.

She supressed her chakra so none would notice her. Then she heard voices. One of them sounded familiar to her.

"Did you get the information?" a voice asked quietly.

"Hai," another voice whispered.

"Did you get caught?"

"No."

"Good work. Where's the scroll?"

Ino heard the crumpling of paper a few seconds later.

"Farewell. Naruto-sama will be pleased with the information." Ino widened her eyes at the name.

"Wait. I sense something."

Ino cringed. The last thing she saw were red blazing Sharingan eyes.

(Flashback end)

Shikamaru nodded his head. "The doctors said that you suffered mental trauma at that time."

Ino sighed. Shikamaru looked out the window. "That doesn't explain how you knew that it was Naruto."

Ino chuckled. "My senses were telling me that he was familiar to me."

Shikamaru chuckled. "Your senses are always right."

(Suna)

Naruto walked calmly through the bustling streets of Suna with Jiraiya behind him.

Naruto nodded in greeting to those who greeted him along with Jiraiya. Naruto then stopped in front of a bar. It was small with very little people in it and had the headline that said, "Hanarashi's Lounge." Naruto then walked inside along with Jiraiya following behind. Naruto sat down in a secluded area with Jiraiya in front of him.

Jiraiya sighed. "I thought I told you not to hurt any of the Konoha shinobi." Naruto chuckled and ordered sake.

"I was bored. There's not much fun around the area I was in." The sake came in and Naruto nodded in thanks while giving the waiter money. Naruto poured sake in a small cup and started to drink. Jiraiya sighed.

"Konoha's desperate you know? They really need the Hell's King, Hell's Illusionist, Hell's Samurai, Death Angel, and the Demon of the West on their side."

Naruto scoffed and poured more sake in the cup. "What makes them think that they would have them on their side?"

Jiraiya gulped. "Uhh…well you see. I told them that one of my spy got info on them and said that he was a former Konoha shinobi and that he made an abundance of allies with other shinobi villages."

Naruto calmly drank all of his sake and set it down on the table. Jiraiya started to sweat and felt a bit uncomfortable.

"You told them that they were former Konoha shinobi's and made many alliances with other shinobi villages did you know?" Naruto said softly. Jiraiya gulped. Naruto's brown eyes then flashed red and he growled. Canine teeth were visible in his mouth. He grabbed Jiraiya's shirt and pulled him closer to his face with his teeth bared.

"You discourteous fool! You made a very blundering mistake you know? How dare you disregard my wishes? You blasted, inexcusable, censurable, unforgivable, disgraceful, unacceptable, discreditable, ignoble, lowly, degenerate, inferior, menial mortal!"

Jiriaya gulped. 'Oh my god, oh my god, oh my god, oh my god… Did he say all of that in one breath?' Naruto snarled and then threw Jiraiya back down in his seat. Naruto sat back down and his eyes turned back to normal along with his teeth. He crossed his arms and stared intently at Jiraya's face with no emotion in his eyes that creeped Jiraiya out. Then he grinned and an insane glint appeared in his eyes. Jiraiya shivered and prayed for a miracle.

"Naruto-sama," a voice said quietly. Jiraiya mentally sighed in relief. Naruto looked up and under the darkness he saw the red Sharingan eyes spinning very furiously.

He smiled at the disguised stranger. "Long time no see, Itachi-san."

(Konoha)

Shikamaru walked in the Hokage's office for the upcoming mission he has to take part in after he said good-bye to Ino. He sighed. "Life is such a drag."

"Well, life with me isn't a drag is it, Shika-kun?" a female voice asked. Shikamaru looked up and smiled at the person who said it.

It was a girl with dark green eyes and blond hair, which was gathered into four pigtails arranged around her head. She wore a black robe that reached down her legs with slits along the side and a revealing neckline. A red sash was tied around her waist and black gloves adorned her hands along with a Suna headband on her forehead. She also had a huge fan on her back.

"Hey, Temari. What are you doing here?" Shikamaru asked casually. Temari, as the girl who was refered to, grinned. "I'm just here to talk to the Hokage."

Shikamaru frowned. "You're not supposed to be her, you know that right?" Temari scoffed. "Just because Suna is no longer had an alliance with Konoha doesn't mean I can't visit."

Shikamaru sweat dropped. "Same old Temari. Tch. Never changed a bit." Temari grinned. "Well, I gotta go. The Godaime is waiting." Shikamaru smiled. "Catch you later." Temari grinned and walked towards the Hokage's Tower.

(Suna- Bar)

Naruto moved over to let Itachi sit down. Itachi nodded in thanks and sat down. He removed his hood very slowly in case there was anyone that knew him but Naruto said, "Suna knows. They won't arrest you or anything of the sort." Itachi looked relieved and took off his hood. He had dark grey eyes, black hair that hung near his all-black cloak that framed his face and a long ponytail in the back of his hair, that was obscured by his cloak. Naruto sighed and drank his sake. He looked at Jiraiya with intense eyes. "Don't think I'm not done yet. You're torture is just beginning." Jiraiya gulped and started to sweat even more. Itachi looked between them with slight confusion in his eyes.

Naruto sighed. "I'll deal with you later. Right now I have to read the report." Jiraiya chuckled nervously for a few seconds and then turned serious.

Itachi nodded and took out a scroll from his pocket. The scroll was thin with gold and red linings on the side. It had the kanji "禁止される" (Forbidden) on it and a symbol on top that looked like a rose with several thorns around it along with several leaves around it.

Itachi gave it to Naruto while bowing slightly in respect. Naruto took it and started to unseal it with his blood. Itachi then asked a question. "Na- I mean, Haru-sama, why do you disguise yourself if Suna already knows your secret?" Naruto chuckled. "Konoha is secretly sending their ninaja's here since they are very suspicious that the Village Hidden in the Sand has their 'favorite knuckle-headed ninja' as they said it." Itachi nodded his head in understanding. Naruto then opened the scroll and started to read. He then sightly widened his eyes in shock and surprise. Jiraiya noticed and asked, "What's wrong?"

Naruto shook his head and handed him the letter. The letter read:

Dear Naruto-sama,

I come with urgent news from Otogakure. They have created a new machine called S4-63 which can allow them to control any living thing they want. The Otokage is now searching for a new host after he failed to achieve Sasuke Uchiha, the last survivor of the Uchiha clan. I've heard from the Otokage that he will try to look for the Hell's King, Hell's Illusionist, Hell's Samurai, Death Angel, and the Demon of the West so they can be on they can be on his side to help him with the war by using this machine. He also told me that it's a top secret assignment for him and to everyone else who are part of the shinobi race in Otogakure. Since I helped create this machine, I can disable it for you if that is what you wish. Please be careful, Naruto-sama. The Otokage hired expert trackers and hunters to find you. They are scattered everywhere, even in Suna and Konoha! Please reply soon and stay safe.

Best wishes,

Kabuto Yakushi

Jiraiya widened his eyes in surprise. He looked up and said, "What do we do?" Naruto thought for a moment and then smirked. He looked at Itachi and asked, "Does the mark work?" Itachi nodded and replied, "It works proficiently, Haru-sama. Why do you ask?"

Naruto smirked and started to close his eyes. "We're going to call all of my subordinates and-" He snapped his eyes opened which were now blood red with a demonic slit in the middle. "We're going to combat!"
