Chapter 1

Soldiers of the battlefield

Unknown place:

"It seems that our final jinchuuriki has vanished after that little fiasco in Sound" Said one of the cloaked figures; red clouds decorated each coat, and straw hats covering their faces

"But, it is an absolute priority that we capture it, if the jinchuuriki is indeed, dead, then years of planning and operation would have been for naught." Said one of its members, fixing the ornament in her hair.

"That is a problem, yeah? Is there a way to solve this, yeah?" Asked the figure, his left eye covered by his yellow hair

"Matter does not vanish that easily, if anything, it changes into another form that from which, how ice turns to water, then to vapor back to water, then to ice." Said the man, covered by what seems to be dual colors of black and white separated in the middle with a strange Venus flytrap like plant, covering his body

"Then a plan of action is needed before anything is too late." Said the sharked skinned man, carrying a huge sword on the back covered in bandages

"Umm… Leader-sama, since we are experiencing this dilemma, shouldn't we send spies, around the Oto (Sound) relics? And investigate the area, in which our subject was last seen?" Asked the spiral masked man, raising his hand like a child

"That is indeed a good idea Tobi. We are going to send spies in and around the ruins of Oto, have an investigation team ready and report the status of our last and main priority before we start phase two of our plans." Said the leader, looking towards his members, his own followers.

"So who do we send then? I doubt that you would send Tobi to do the job, he's a friggin' newbie, and he can't do jack shit when it comes to investigating." Said the scythe wielding man scratching his head and then looked to another masked man,

"Kakuzu, you think so right?" Asked the scythe wielding man

"I doubt that even you can do it Hidan." Said the butcher like ninja turning his eye towards Kakuzu

"If I recall, you're an idiot as well, the same level as that of Tobi." Said Kakuzu and Hidan went furious

"You son of a bitch! You take that back! I told you, I didn't know that your blood was slipped on purpose by that stupid pineapple headed Konoha nin! You were lucky; you managed to escape with a goddamn heart!" Said Hidan noticing his temper flare around the hollow chambers of the cave, the sound of his voice, forcing an echo

"As I have told you, you shouldn't underestimate the power of Konoha nins, particularly, the Kyuubi's container, his tempest is that of which, all nine of us should be wary." Said the man looking at both Hidan and Kakuzu, with Sharingan eyes flaring

"And I am still recovering, so of the leader assigns me for this mission, I might have to decline for now." Said Kakuzu and the leader nodded his head

"Very well then, as for the espionage team, it shall be consisted of four members as of today, the members that are to investigate and report back to me, are; Uchiha Itachi," Said the leader and the man with the Sharingan, nodded

"Hoshigaki Kisame"

The shark skinned man grinned and touch the hilt of his giant sword, Samehada

"Deidara"

The man that covered his left eye gestured a yeah and then looked at the leader for the final member

"Hidan"

Kakuzu was shocked, why would the leader send Hidan, a complete idiot when it came to deductive reasoning, Hidan may be an invulnerable human being, but it doesn't excuse him to the limitations and weaknesses any other human being

"You are probably wondering why, Kakuzu?" Asked the leader and Kakuzu nodded

"The purpose of Hidan is to try and analyze anything around the area that may actually be, a metaphysical phenomenon." Said the leader and everyone was shocked, even Hidan. Is the leader really that insane? Metaphysical substances were known to exist of what was beyond matter itself, neither is it understandable by logic nor tangible by the senses, metaphysical substances could be considered to another thing, the existence of demons, angels, heaven, hell, purgatory, even that of gods

"So are you saying that you suspect that the event that occurred may have actually been metaphysical in nature? Such as that of the gods intervening in the event? Or most likely out of those farfetched ideas, that the Kyuubi Jinchuuriki was spirited away?" Asked Hidan and the leader told him

"It could also mean a cosmic phenomenon… You're religion has also been involved in astrology and surrealism, has it not?" Asked the leader and Hidan nodded

"Then that is why I assigned you in this mission, to conduct a study that may involve anything cosmic or metaphysical in nature." Said the leader and the nine purple cloaked figures disappeared like haze. Akatsuki is beginning to move once again…

Nerima:

Uzumaki Naruto stood on the tallest pole he could find and looked at the scenery around him, as far as his eyes could see

"This is place is so huge! It's bigger than Konoha!" Said Naruto amazed at the view that stood before him. Hundreds of houses all separated, a small mountain by the town's city limits, a river separating the town, and bridges connecting it back again. Unknown objects made of metal dashing through the traffic on the concrete cement that seemed to go endlessly. Naruto viewed far and wide, amazed as to how he had ended up in this strange place.

But Naruto's amazement was cut short when shouts of angry women were heard from the street just below him, Naruto leaned his head down and saw a small old man, carrying what seems to be a sack, Naruto wondered as to what made these women so angry, and he heard the women saying words like

"Panty thief!"

"Vile lecher!"

"Shameless old goat!"

Naruto quickly deduced the situation and gave a hard sigh; it seemed that no matter where he goes, there would always be a pervert to make his day turn hell. He jumped from the post and landed on the rooftop continuously following the old man and his stolen luggage

"Damn perverts, always ruining the names of all the males of the world" Said Naruto as he followed the strange little old man

The little old man, quickly noticed the presence of Naruto and turned his head towards his left, he had seen the man, and prepared a bomb

"Young whippersnapper! Are you going to stop the great Happosai? The greatest lingerie thief in the world?" Said the old man, jumping up turning a 180 degree spin and threw a bomb saying

"Happo Daikarin! (Happo Fire Burst)" Said the old man throwing a bomb. Naruto jumped to the side and jumped to the next roof, as he did so, he ran faster and Happosai saw the dramatic change in speed

"Woah! That kid can run!" Said the old man as he started to turn to the left, Naruto, then almost missed the old man and decided to chase after the old man, calling himself Happosai yet again

This time, Happosai had managed to bump into a bored Ranma, after a whole day of nothing in the school, Ranma felt, quite dull, to the point where he is almost asleep. But when Ranma saw Happosai, he immediately perked up and saw fire in his once again

"Old… Man… What in the hell are you doing!?" Asked Ranma clenching his fists and made a cracking sound. Akane kept quiet and closed her eyes

'Serves him right anyways.' Thought Akane not about to care about the screams of pain Happosai was about to experience

But before Ranma could pounce Happosai, Happosai ignored him and jumped on his head, as if Ranma wasn't worth of anything as of now.

Happosai ran as fast as he could only to be stopped when a man, wearing what seems to be a soldier's uniform, and a flack jacket with a weird insignia on a metallic headband that was tied to his neck. Ranma was quickly remembered the man, he was the one that he carried along with the other guy to Dr. Tofu's clinic

"Who the hell are you? And why are you following me?" Asked the old man and the man in blue answered back

"I'm the judge of all perverts! Stupid lecherous old man, you should know better!" Said Naruto forming a handseal mentioning, "Oiroke no Jutsu! (Sexy Technique!)"

Naruto was surrounded in a puff of smoke. Happosai stood scared for a moment and then saw something so magnificent that his grew bigger than it already has. In front of him, was the cutest girl Happosai had ever seen; the most perfect face, the most perfect body, and the most perfect curves! And she was naked!

"Would you please return those panties, please, please, please?" Asked the woman grabbing Happosai like a baby and hugging him like he was her child… Happosai, at first, didn't move out of amazement and shock, but he then started to giggle and hugged Sexy Naruto back

"Oh, nee-chan! I'm yours!" Said Happosai, quickly flying to Sexy Naruto's chest

"Gah! A super pervert! You're like my old sensei! What the hell is up with you? Then in this case…" Said Naruto pushing Happosai away and changing back to his old self and made a middle index cross

"Kage Bunshin no Jutsu!" Said Naruto and in a poof of smoke, the whole street was now occupied with ten clones of Naruto

"Is this some kind of trick?" Asked the ticked off Happosai, about to grab another bomb but was cut off by Naruto saying

"Harem no Jutsu!" Said Naruto and all the clones changed into that of the same most perfect girl, still completely naked. Happosai, stood like a statue as the girls began to grab him and hug him, with erotic moans being heard from the street, Happosai, could not manage anymore, as he was being hugged, by ten gorgeous women! He began to tremble like a rocket as his nose started to flood with hot liquid. Just like a volcano, Happosai spewed blood in an explosion that sent him skywards and landing on his back on the cold hard ground. Happosai was caught in a frenzy of overflowing emotions that he was unconscious with him completely muttering

"Breasts… Girls… Breasts!" Said Happosai, completely high, as if he had smoked drugs

Much to Ranma's dismay, he too suffered the same fate as that of Happosai; this earned a small frown from Akane

Naruto grabbed the bag and was about to turn towards the women when he saw all the men in the street had suffered the same fate as that of Happosai, even that pigtailed man that was trying to stop him.

"I guess every guy in this town is a pervert." Said Naruto as he walked away carrying the bag and then saw a short haired girl wearing overalls trying to wake Ranma up, as Naruto saw this, he went to the girl and gave her the bag

"Once the women come here, hand over the bag to them, because they might think I'm the old man's accomplice don't worry, I didn't mean to get your boyfriend involved. If anything happened then I'm sorry." Said Naruto grinning and vanished quickly that Akane didn't notice.

"What a weird guy!" Said Akane as she waited for Ranma to wake up.

Dr. Tofu's Clinic:

Naruto had just arrived back in time, entering the small clinic, he saw the good doctor doing his routine checkup of vital signs. After recording the data and sat down, he looked towards the blonde haired man and asked him,

"So how was your trip?" Asked Dr. Tofu, he wanted to learn as much as possible about the blond ninja.

"It was okay; I accidentally bumped into this annoying blue kimono wearing idiot calling himself, Tatewaki Kuno… The blue slipper or something like that." Said Naruto, not telling all the details and then said

"He was arrogant and he even insulted me, but I kept my cool. I ignored him." Said Naruto, telling a complete lie, he did in fact, tried to keep his cool, but he ended up beating the crap out of Kuno instead, since Kuno was the one who started the fight in the first place

"Well, at least you got here in one piece." Said the good doctor and smiled. Naruto then heard someone move on to the small ward that the doctor had, Naruto walked towards the small line of beds and saw that Hyuuga Hinata was the one who woke up.

"W-Where am I?" Asked Hinata looking around her surroundings but could only see nothing but green curtains surroundings, she looked to her right and saw Naruto entering the small ward

"Yo, Hinata! I see you woke up!" Said Naruto flashing a small grin that made Hinata blush

"N-Naruto-kun, how long was I out?" Asked the shy Hyuuga heiress as she stared at the unconscious forms of Uchiha Sasuke and Haruno Sakura.

"For a day, you were knocked out for only a day. Because you were the one with the least injuries. You were kind of lucky, you know that?" Said Naruto as Hinata listened to Naruto's explanations

"Listen Hinata, we aren't near at Konoha as of yesterday, after retrieving Sasuke, I don't know how we ended up here." Said Naruto and Hinata nodded

"We are currently in a place called Nerima and all I can tell you is that it's big." Said Naruto as he sat down on his bed and started to talk to Hinata about his adventures in his explorations in Nerima

Hinata herself, listened to what Naruto had said in detail, she loved it when Naruto's attention was hers, she felt like she was the only person that Naruto had placed his undivided attention, she smiled a little with a blush appearing on her face she tried to hid her smile with her hand… Although Naruto was busy talking to Hinata, he immediately saw the blush on her cheeks and the small smile she had

'She looks pretty when she smiles like that…' Thought Naruto as he was immediately jolted back to reality, he tilted his head left and right to remind himself, that he was still too dumb on any ideas about romantic relationships

'Besides, she'll dump me anyway; I'm not worth her time…' Thought Naruto as he stared at the Hyuuga heiress with sad, but appreciating eyes

'She's in a whole different league compared to me, I'm just an ordinary ninja, compared to clans like Uchiha and Hyuuga, I'm nothing… Except a damn Jinchuuriki but I even doubt that she knows about it, and the fact that I really am the legacy of the Yondaime.' Thought Naruto as he decided to let his feelings aside for the Hyuuga girl… He didn't want to ruin their friendship anyway.

"Naruto-kun?" Said Hinata as if wondering why her one and only crush was sad

Naruto didn't reply still deep in his thoughts

"Naruto-kun?" Said Hinata about to touch Naruto's hand when he was jolted back to reality

"Ahh! What? Oh, I'm fine Hinata, just… Thinking about something." Said Naruto as he tried to hide the fact that he was thinking about her

"About what Naruto-kun?" Asked Hinata, she was now concerned

"N-Nothing… He he he he he he… Just ignore it, you hungry?" Asked Naruto putting all thought aside with a nervous laugh and scratching his head. Fortunately, it was Hinata's stomach that answered his questions; Naruto laughed a little and said,

"C'mon, it's time for dinner anyways, I think you'll love this place that I just discovered just this morning, you'll definitely love that place! They serve all kinds of food!" Said Naruto grabbing Hinata's arm as they dashed towards the Cat Café,

Cat Café:

Naruto and Hinata just arrived at the cat café, it was a little small, but it was clean, appropriate for a 4 star restaurant, but doesn't have much of a staff to coordinate well so it wasn't very well known outside the town itself.

Naruto sat down in front of Hinata and Hinata quickly followed suit. Once seated, Hinata quickly noticed Naruto was smiling at him with his foxy eyes, Hinata blushed a little and looked away, she felt tense as she waited for someone to take the order, when someone did come, Hinata silently thanked fate for this awkward moment to abruptly end.

"What you be having, white eye girl?" Asked the waitress, her long her at her back, a small portion of it were tied like buns, wearing a traditional Chinese outfit

'Foreigner…' Thought Naruto with a raised eyebrow, she looked at her face then at her figure,

'Quite impressive, I must say… But I'm not into girls like her.' Said Naruto saying ordered food, Ramen. Tilting his head around to notice anything that might peak his interests, but to no avail

"Umm, D-dango please…" Said Hinata and the Chinese girl listed the orders and went into the kitchen.

Hinata stared at the boy that sat in front of him, who was currently starring at other parts of the restaurant, with his chin on his forehead as if he was bored

'Naruto-kun is beginning to be quite a man… He's showing traits that would even make Uchiha-san cry.' Said Hinata staring at Naruto's deep crystal blue eyes, her body was feeling relaxed, all tensions from her mind were slowly fading as she stared at his eyes… Not only that, it seemed that Naruto was closely resembling the fabled Yondaime more and more as he started to grow older and showed signs of being an absolute genius despite his embarrassing academy years.

Naruto let his eyes traveled and unexpectedly, met with Hinata's who was staring at him with awe, Naruto, out of curiosity, raised his eyebrows and his head saying, "Is there something on my face Hinata?"

Hinata, blushed even further and said, "N-nothing Naruto-kun!"

Hinata tilted her head left and right denying and Naruto laughed a little saying,

"You're weird Hinata…" Said Naruto as Hinata felt heartbroken, she was crushed as to what Naruto had said, he said that she was weird and that probably meant Naruto was uneasy with her. Hinata had dropped her head almost giving in to defeat when Naruto continued smiling at her saying,

"… Maybe that's why I like you." Said Naruto and Hinata quickly stood hear head blushing like mad and made her heart jump

'H-he likes me… He likes me!' Thought Hinata as though a blissful feeling overwhelmed her, before she could even speak out Naruto's name, the Chinese girl had placed their orders on the table as Naruto gladly accepted their meal with a big grin on his face

"Itadakimasu!" Said Naruto as he grabbed a pair of chopsticks and grabbing strings of noodles in it blowing it a little to cool down the recently cooked ramen

Hinata sighed in defeat, she thought that she was going to confess to him now, but it seemed fate managed to intervene yet again, almost ruining her bolstered courage.

'Another time then…' Thought Hinata as she began to devour her food

After the meal, the old lady that Naruto spoke to, had gladly set the meal on the house for now because of Naruto's huge contribution just this morning. Naruto and Hinata quickly exited the restaurant whilst Naruto talked to the Hyuuga heiress.

As the two were slowly disappearing to their view, a certain waitress stood back, staring at the two

"Shampoo is jealous of white eyed girl." Said the waitress and the old lady that was walking with a stick asked her

"Why is that grand daughter?" Asked the old lady

"Because she has all of blonde boy's attention…" Said the Chinese girl

"And you want Ranma to give that kind of attention to you as well?" Asked the old lady

"Yes." Said Shampoo as she went inside fixing the dishes

Sound Ruins:

"There's no trace of them anywhere…" Said Neji deactivating his Byakugan (White eyes)

"But its weird, there a still a small part of their scents still lurking in this place, but after seeing that huge crater, it completely stopped there." Said Kiba, riding his giant pet dog, Akamaru

"Could they possibly be dead?" Asked Ino, kneeling down trying to find the tracks of their missing comrades

"No, if there were a corpse, my Kikaichuu (Destruction Bugs) would have already reported back to me, a rotting corpse is a decomposer's most eligible meal." Said Shino letting one of his bugs fly off again to search for anything related to the three ninjas that undertook the mission

"As much as how disgusting that sounds, it's true, we don't know what happened here, we don't know what happened, to Naruto, Sakura, Hinata or even Sasuke for that matter." Said Shikamaru, taking another stick of cigarettes and started lighting

"But we do know that what happened to them baffled us… They vanished without a trace and because of that, we have our work cut out for. However, if we can't find anything here on what seems to be either a corpse or a living human in the next 24 hours, we're going to have to consider them, MIA." Said Shikamaru taking the cigarette to his mouth and breathed in. Pausing for a moment, he exhaled the nicotine induced smoke. Looking at the large crater thinking, 'Let's not hope that they are dead, MIA would be better, because there's a chance for them to be alive, a small chance but it's still good.'

Nerima, Tendo residence:

"You know, Ranma and I met this really weird person just today on our way back home." Said Akane and his father, Soun, put the newspaper down a little and said,

"Did the person try to pick a fight with either you or Ranma?" Asked the Patriarch

"Actually, he was the one who managed to stop that perverted old man back there." Said Ranma pointing to Happosai at his back who had a tissue stuck up his left nose

"I was tricked! That wasn't a fair fight!" Said Happosai pointing a finger at Ranma

"Yeah, right…" Said Ranma and Happosai clearly fumed, ooh, if there was one way to get back at the arrogant pig tailed boy, but Happosai suddenly stopped and had a grin on his face, a clear sign that trouble was brewing for the Saotome heir.

"You know, I wasn't the only one that had such a nose bleed. If I remember correctly, you and Akane were…" Said Happosai, leaning towards Ranma and Ranma shivered slightly

"W-What are you talking about, old man?" Asked Ranma quivering as he stepped back

"I mean, with the-" Happosai gestured his hands on his chest, and gesturing his hands like holding two cups. Then he moved his fingers this way and that way, Soun was clearly intrigued

"And the-" Said Happosai this time, gesturing to his butt and slapping it, Ranma stepped back even further, he did not like where this was going.

Happosai grinned maniacally and snickered, as he then gestured his hands on his crotch saying, "And let's not forget this one!"

Happosai loved it when Ranma's nose had a small trickle of blood remembering that incident with the boy. Soun was furious, he dropped the newspaper from his hand, slamming it on the table and stood up,

"What? Ranma has seen the blossoming body of my youngest daughter!" Said Soun, standing up and grabbed a knife out of nowhere with a grim look on his face, he started approach Ranma slowly, placing the knife at his side, as if he was a Yakuza boss

"N-no it's not like that! I swear!" Said Ranma tilting his head left and right and then waving his arms, damn that old man

"Akane! You tell them what happened when we encountered this guy!" Said Ranma

Akane gave a humph and said, "You deserve it you pervert!"

Ranma was faced with Soun with his knife on his side and Soun was smoking a cigarette, 'Since where in the hell did that come from?'

Asked Ranma his back against the wall finally saying

"Oi, Ranma, ya know what happens when yous see one of my daughters' body right?" Said Soun, a small vertical scar appearing on his right eye puffing out a smoke

"It was that weird dude that transformed into this naked girl and multiplied himself! I swear I'm not lying!" Said Ranma screaming, Akane, feeling as though Ranma had been in the grill long enough, said to his father what really happened

A while later:

"Ah, I get it now!" Said Soun with a smile on his face, thank goodness Akane helped him there, although the extra time needed for Ranma to get off the hot water was unnecessary, was Ranma's thought

"I thought, Ranma saw something from one of my girls!" Said Soun laughing,

'Yeesh, what a sudden change in attitude!' Said Ranma earning a slap on the back by the Tendo Patriarch, and then Soun on Ranma's shoulders

"Listen here, you may be my daughter's betrothed but you still have no right to see her body" Said Soun giving Ranma a death glare that Ranma had shivers running down his spine, he only gave a small nod

Happosai got a huge laugh saying, "There is hope for you yet Ranma, and you can and will be my most treasured protégé from now own! You shall inherit my most devastating techniques of the Anything Goes Martial Arts!"

Before Ranma could make a comeback, a panda with beady eyes walked into the room and sat down, as looked at Ranma

"Pops?" Asked Ranma, Ranma knew that if Genma wasn't playing with Soun in Shogi, he was either sleeping or strolling around town

The panda raised a signpost saying, 'Ranma, you know that the person you and master met is a martial artist'

"I already know that!" Said Ranma and Akane, quickly asked

"He's a martial artist?" Asked Akane

'Of course, he has a weird skill and any weird skill here in this town tell signs that the person is a martial artist.' Were the words from the sign post

The panda was about to right another statement with his marker but made an error, he then grabbed an eraser and was about to right again until Ranma got pissed

"Why don't you just talk!" Said Ranma tossing hot water from a kettle to his father, immediately the Panda turned into a bandana wearing man. Before Genma can speak, Ranma threw the kettle pot towards Genma's head, making Genma fall down and have a huge bump on his head

Genma stood up and gave a small cough, adjusting his glasses, he turned to Ranma,

"You have lost to that person, Ranma! As the heir to the Anything Goes Martial Arts, you must reclaim that honor Ranma! Challenge him to a duel!" Said Genma, if anything, he was passionate about his style, but passionate as he was, Ranma was a better fighter compared to him

"Wha- wha- what? Are you making me fight that guy? Are you fucking crazy? He has a one hit KO move!" Said Ranma then stomping on Genma's head, Genma fell on the floor hard but quickly stood up

"As the heir to the Saotome style of Anything Goes Martial Arts, you are the sole flagship of our honor my son!" Said Genma, grabbing, Ranma by the collar and literally dragging Ranma towards the door outside, before Genma could outside, he just remembered,

"Where does he live anyway?" Asked Genma to no one and Ranma kicked him in the face.

"You want to make me challenge some guy and reclaim our honor if in fact, you resulted in stealing, conning and made me have several fiancés that I don't even remember!" Said Ranma kicking the dirt out of his own father

"W-what are you talking about? I did no such thing!" Said Genma as he was pummeled again

"I perfectly remember you, doing all of those three things all at once! Remember Ukyo and that stupid Okonomiyaki cart? Huh?" Said Ranma kicking his old man yet again

"All right, all right, I get it! I get it!" Said Genma and Ranma stopped beating up his old man

"Besides, you don't even know where he lives." Said Ranma and Genma hit the base of his closed fists on the palm of his hand

"Oh yeah… But we must still look!" Said Genma when he heard a familiar voice yelling

"Everyone, dinner's ready!" Said Kasumi and Genma stopped

"We do this after dinner." Said Genma and Ranma sighed, the stomach is always first before anything else in the Saotome family.

After dinner:

"So he is in this small clinic here?" Asked Genma, both Ranma and Akane nodded

"Before you would scream his name out, and make a scene here, I'll go talk to Dr. Tofu first." Said Akane, as she went in.

After a couple of minutes, Akane went out with Dr. Tofu and the blonde haired man, Genma glanced at the boy,

'Nothing special about him.' He thought, as Dr. Tofu greeted them with a smile

"Oh, Mr. Saotome, it's a pleasure to see you tonight." Said Dr. Tofu and then glanced at his side, and said

"This is Uzumaki Naruto, a Shinobi from an obscure village; he came here by accident, along with his friends." Said Dr. Tofu and Naruto bowed

"It's a pleasure to meet you-" Before Naruto could finish his statement, Genma gave a downward punch, Naruto, jumped back dodging the punch and said

"What the hell is your problem?" Asked Naruto, forget manners, this was serious

"I see, very good boy, you can dodge, but you won't be able to dodge this next attack!" Said Genma dashing forward to the blonde haired ninja, Naruto prepared for his attack and Genma said,

"Look a quarter!" Said Genma, Naruto being gullible, looked downward, and Genma jumped

"Saotome style, secret attack! Flying Eagle strike!" Said Genma and managed to kick Naruto on the head. Naruto fell on his face on the concrete floor and Genma laughed,

"Hahaha! You're no match for me; you still cannot best the Saotome Style Anything Goes Martial Arts!" Said Genma and Naruto stood up holding his head painfully

"That was a cheap trick, old man!" Said Naruto, obviously pissed, he then jumped from the ground as high as he can and made a handseal. Genma stood amazed watching the boy jump to the sky, with the moon lighting on his back ground

"Kage Bunshin no Jutsu! (Shadow clone technique)" Said Naruto and two clones appeared on his side, he then grabbed both clones as the clones both said,

"Henge! (Transform)"

The two clones changed in a puff of smoke revealing, two giant Shuriken, Genma felt his jaw hit the ground as the boy began to pin in midair, gathering momentum to throw the two giant shuriken

Naruto then immediately threw the Shuriken at high speeds, Genma, fearing for his life managed to dodge the first with a side step to the left and then a duck. But when the first shuriken hit the ground, the Shuriken puffed out a smoke revealing Naruto's clone

"Here's a dirty trick too! Konoha hid den Taijutsu Ougi! Sennen Goroshi! (Konoha, Secret Body Arts Succession Move: One Thousand Years of Pain)" Said Naruto placing his hands together closing his hands together with the ring and pinky finger closed and poked Genma on the butt

Ranma and Akane's eyes twitched as they heard Genma scream, but Akane noticed something,

"Where's the real Naruto?"

Akane quickly glanced around and saw Naruto still going down exactly towards where Genma was flying, Naruto prepared a powerful kick towards the flying Genma

Naruto descending down, and making Genma meet Naruto's foot on his face; Genma twisted his body as he was sent somersaulting back and hitting his face hard on the ground

"Everywhere… Hurts!" Said Genma as he was twitching on the ground,

"I better go get the bandage and the Anesthesia ready" Said Dr. Tofu sighing and went inside

"You're pretty good, you mind if we spar tomorrow?" Asked Ranma and Naruto said,

"Nah, I don't mind, just tell me where to spar and I'll be there." Said Naruto when someone else came out of the Clinic

"N-Naruto-kun, what were the noises coming out here?" Asked a long haired white eyed girl

"Woah! She has white eyes! Is she… blind?" Asked Akane and Naruto tilted his head saying,

"Oh you mean that? She inherited them. She has a genetic trait that makes her eyes white. She may have a colorless iris, but she can see." Said Naruto, not telling them about the power behind those eyes, she then turned towards Hinata saying,

"Oh, it's nothing special Hinata the good doctor just wanted to meet some of his friends, let's go back inside!" Said Naruto waving his arm and grabbing Hinata's hand as they went inside

Hinata blushed at Naruto's action

"N-Naruto-kun, people are watching." Said Hinata blushing and Naruto said,

"I don't care, besides, we're friends, and we can always do this." Said Naruto smiling at Hinata. Hinata, pausing from Naruto's words at the moment, began to think

'I… I'm just his friend… Nothing more…' Thought Hinata sadly but she still had hoped that when she confesses, Naruto's attitude towards her would change.

Akane noticed this and gave a small sign

"Well, I'll be…" Said Akane, she was sure something was brewing from the white eyed girl Naruto called, Hinata

Ranma looked at Akane and then back at the white eyed girl, and then shrugged,

"I can never understand women." Said Ranma and they both went inside to wait for Ranma's father who was having a medical treatment.

End…
