Mitsuomi followed behind the others as the huge gates of Konoha came into view, their journey took two days and he was bombarded about everything but he kept up the facade to fool them. Mitsuomi had learned much in the two days and one thing he deduced that kakashi like tsunade was being used with Genjutsu. The other was several of his old friends were gone, having died after the mission to save a certain person, this infuriated him that good people lost their lives for the man walking smugly in front of him. The group soon stopped at the gate, "Welcome back Team Seven and you have a guest...his affiliation" one asked. Mitsuomi removed his hood, "I am a traveling mercenary and I was invited by Uchiha-sama" he placted. Sasuke smirks as sakura beams at him, "He is a tool for us...let him in" he states and the two nod. The group enters and were met by three elderly people, "Uchiha-sama...Welcome back" one states, with a cane and part of his face covered.
"Danzō..I have a new tool for us to use...a human weaopn from the far north...he defeated Sasori of the Red Sand and Deidara the mad bomber of the Akatsuki" sasuke remarks. Danzō and the two others were shocked but the old war hawk remained calm, "I see..then he will be useful" he says.
"Um excuse Uchiha-sama...If I can..I would like to tour your village...to take in your wonderful sights before we talk shop" mitsuomi intejects. Sasuke turns to him with a slight glare, "that should be fine Uchiha-sama...we'll have ANBU watch him" danzō states. Sasuke waves his hand dimissively and mitsuomi fakes a bow, before excusing himself. Danzō watches him leave and turns to sasuke, "I do not trust him..We must be Weary of him" he remarks.
"If he is not worth his salt...Have him killed outside the village..no one will miss him and the Sand will not oppose us" sasuke states. Mitsuomi's first place of visit was the memorial stone and he found several names etched there, "Shikamaru...Choji...Neji...Kiba...I will avenge your deaths...I know in my heart he took your lives for supporting me" he thought, running his fingers along the stone. Mitsuomi stayed for several more minutes but left to avoid suspicion from his shadows, heading towards Ichiraku for some much needed fuel. Mitsuomi strolled through the streets and saw people beaten but he couldn't care less as he found the shop. Mitsuomi dipped under the curtain and took a seat, "Welcome" a familar person says. Mitsuomi looked up with a soft smile as he looked over the menu, "um what is the XL challenge Ms.." he says.
"I'm Ayame and the XL challenge...is if you can eat fifteen bowls of our Pork Miso ramen..you eat free...Dad we got an XL" ayame explains and his eyes light up, "I'll take it" mitsuomi crows. Ayame and her father blinked but quickly set to work but a wave of nostalgia came over her as they cooked. Mitsuomi rubs his hands as the first bowl arrives, "Thank you" he mutters, while slurping the noodles.
"Um are you a Shinobi" ayame asked, pointing to his sword. Mitsuomi slowly shook his head, "A fleeting dream once...my Gramps use to tell me stories about them but fate and reality are cruel...I was not allowed because..I was often referred to as the Smiling Demon by many" he states. Ayame and her father Teuchi gasp slightly but mitsuomi raises his hand, "thank you for the concern but it stemmed from the fact..that no matter what anyone did..I always smiled..My childhood friend Aoi once told me that my smile looked painful and she was right...However as time passed..I instead became a Mercenary apart a group but again fate is cruel and I lost my comrades but I have persevered and became well known in my homeland..So at the behest of a brother in arms..I came to Konoha" mitsuomi explains. Many ramen meals lost their lives to stop mitsuomi and ayame was shocked as he reached the last bowl, "you remind me of someone I use to know and miss dearly" she thought and wiped a tear.
"Something wrong...Ayame-chan...you're crying" mitsuomi said. Ayame sniffles softly but shakes her head, "its nothing and congrats on finishing the XL challenge" she says, clapping. Mitsuomi gives her a deep bow, "Thank you for the food...Ayame...Old Man...its still the best Ramen ever" he states and excuses himself. Ayame and teuchi blinked in shock and she almost started to cry, "it couldnt be" she thought.

Mitsuomi looked over some other sights in town but his most notable place to visit was the Hokage monument and of all things mitsuomi lounges on the fourth Hokage's head. Mitsuomi takes a slow drag with a sigh, "Dad you must spinning in your grave...I owe the Rei-ō for telling me the truth" he muses. Kakashi suddenly dropped down behind him, "Kiriyu-san...The council requests your presence" he states. Mitsuomi slowly stood with a pop of his joints, "Alrite lead the way" he states. Kakashi led him to the Hokage tower but it was ruled by the council and sasuke, "you can go in" he states, as they stop at a door. The door opens as mitsuomi stepped inside and sees the council including the parents of his deceased friends and sasuke, "Welcome...Uchiha-sama has informed us you are a human weapon...But your chakra levels are barely above a civilian" one states.
"Yes...that is true...my chakra is indeed useless...However...I possess a power similar but vastly different...many years ago my creator...A name lost to history sought to make the perfect weapon...after witnessing the power of the Tailed beasts...the sort of power that could shape continents...Now the Tailed beasts needed a host to wield this power...which created the Jinchūriki but he wanted power beyond that...So through rigorous research he discovered an energy...this power was comparable to the Tailed Beasts...this power could kill with its sheer force..he named this power...Reiatsu" mitsuomi explains. The council members murmur amongst themselves, "so you possess this Reiatsu" another asks. Mitsuomi slowly nods and drops his power enough for them to feel the force and some of the civilians pass out, "Yes..after this discovery..he sought to harness it...after many more years..he found those symptomatic to it and they learned to channel it..to produce weapons like myself but...unlike the Tailed beast hosts...my reiatsu is channeled through this weapon at my side...My creator used forbidden Jutsu to forge a container of sorts in the form of this weapon...using a portion of the users very soul and once released...their true power is revealed" he explains. Sasuke silently glares at mitsuomi but danzō rises, "are there more like you...with this power..no one in the other nations could stop us" he states and other murmur in approval.
"Sadly..No...I am the only one...Of my twenty five siblings..I alone survived to adulthood and my creator was killed by one of them and with it was his work" mitsuomi said and they murmur.
"What about that left eye of yours...is it some bloodline-limit like the Byakugan or Sharingan" sasuke comments. Mitsuomi touches his face, "A mutation of his work...he called it a pale imitation of the Sharingan and it only gives me an exotic look" he explains. Sasuke scoffs as danzō approaches mitsuomi, "I speak for the council...we would like to use your services" he states. Mitsuomi smirks internally and places his hand on his chest, "I do appreciate your offer but will you me allow time to think about this" he says and the die was cast.
"Will that surfice everyone and you Uchiha-sama" danzō said and sasuke waves his hand, "Take all the time you need..you are but a weapon to be used" he replies. Mitsuomi excuses himself but none the notice the smirk on his face, "and here we go" he thought. Mitsuomi left the tower and started to wander but he knew his shadows were following him again, "Man it would've been so fucking easy to deport them all to Hell" he thought. Mitsuomi returned to the fourth's monument to better find those he needed to save, his shadows thought he was meditating but it a cleverly created clone. The real mitsuomi was moving through the village towards a certain compound in the high-end area and thanks to his time as member the Onmitsukidō, no one with that all seeing eye spotted him leaping over the gates.

One Hinata Hyūga knelt next a shrine built for the one she loves and lost, "Naruto-kun...I miss you so much" she whispers. Hinata said another prayer and rose to her feet, only to come face to face to with a hooded man. Hinata was about to scream but the man placed a finger on her rosy lips, "Shh...I am a friend..Hime" he whispers. Hinata silently gasps hearing that name but slowly reaches for his hood, "who..who are you" she asks but he pulls her hands to his cheeks. Hinata felt her cheeks heat up just by touching his own and tears started form, "Please tell me..who you are" she whispers, finally pulling the hood down. Mitsuomi looked into those pearl orbs and his own started to betray him, "you know who I am..despite this face...you watched me draw my last breath with a smile on my face" he says. Hinata's breath hitched and she nearly fainted, "you..you can't be..it not possible..Kami-sama isnt cruel enough..Naru..Naruto-kun" she asked. Mitsuomi buried her face in his chest, "Hai..I came back to you but its Mitsuomi Kiriyu now" he says, feeling her tears on his shirt. Hinata slowly pulled away and looked up into his steel-blue orbs, "Naruto-kun...how is this real...this must be a cruel trick...I must be dreaming" she whispers. However he lifted her chin, "Then I'll show you I'm real" mitsuomi says, planting his lips on her own. Her pearl eyes widen but hinata gives into the kiss, "it just can't but I want to believe" she thought.
Hinata quietly headed to cell that contained naruto but saw sakura leaving the cell, "Why do you keep coming here Hinata...he's being executed tomorrow...the fucking demon tried to kill Sasuke-kun..." she states. Hinata avoided sakura's gaze as she walks pass her, "Sasuke tried to kill him or didn't you see his injuries" she said but sakura turned her and got in her face, "Say another word and you'll join him" she hissed. Sakura brushes pass hinata and she enters the cell, "Naruto-kun" hinata says but gets a soft groan. Naruto was chained to the ceiling, his blond hair matted with blood and his body covered in wounds as well as seals.
"Is that you Hime" naruto whispers and looks up to see her. Hinata closes the gap to touch his cheek, "Sakura must have told you huh" naruto whispers. Hinata pulls a cloth from her pocket to wipe his face but he saw the look on her face, "Don't be sad ok...keep strong for me" he whispers, his voice faltering. Hinata wiped away a tear, "I don't know if I can...how can I watch the one I love go to his death" she says but gasps as naruto stares with tears in his eyes.
"You love me Hime but why" naruto asks but hinata cups his cheek, "I've loved you for a long time...you taught me to be strong and it breaks my heart to see you like this...I wish I could do more" she states. Naruto softly smiles and leans into her hand, "You have Hinata...Knowing someone really loves me is enough to keep me strong" he says. The next day hinata was among the villagers as naruto was bound arms apart and sasuke preparing his chidori, "Kami-sama please watch him in the afterlife" she prays and sees the chidori pierces his chest but also saw the smile in his face.
Hinata shook her thoughts and still was in the embrace of mitsuomi, "I thought I lost you there...I didn't know a kiss could that" her says, rubbing his nose. Hinata softly blushed and wiped her remaining tears away, "Naru...I mean Mitsuomi-kun...how are you alive" she asks. Mitsuomi looks around and looks her in the eye, "I can't explain right now but if you can...come to the Forest of Death gate tomorrow at ten and make sure you're not followed" he says. Mitsuomi kisses her forehead and vanishes, leaving hinata happier than she has ever been. Hinata headed inside for a shower and then to her room, "Naruto-kun..." she thought, reaching for a fox plushy under her bed.

Mitsuomi returns to the Yondaime's head and took the place of his clone as danzō approached with a bundle and flanked by two ANBU. Mitsuomi stood up with a pop and bowed to him, "the view here was perfect for Jinzen or meditation as you call it" he states.
"Have you decided on the Council's offer" danzō said, handing him the items. The two bodyguards looked slightly shocked but dismissed it when they looked mitsuomi in the eye, "Yes...I will give you my answer at high noon tomorrow" he says and bows before vanishing. Danzō and his guards returned to the ROOT headquarters, unaware they had gave mitsuomi the keys to the proverbial cookie jar. Mitsuomi landed the roof of the old apartment he had as naruto and found it fixed up and brand new, "Really...I die and people miraculously move back in" he muses, however finding his condemned and with no money he had no choice. Mitsuomi pushed opened the door with little force and was met by dust with spiders in webs, "I'd rather piss glass" he notes and closes the door.
"Hinata would lose her mind if I asked to crash at her place" mitsuomi thought. Mitsuomi stopped in his tracks and snapped his fingers, before vanishing and losing his shadows to reappear on the wall of a compound.
"My dad's been dead what nearly twenty years and it looks brand new" mitsuomi muses, jumping down. Mitsuomi crossed the grounds in silence and reached the door but opted for the storehouse, "let's be ninja quiet" zetsuei comments, as he breaks the lock. The was dimly lit but the moon shines in enough, slipping off his sword and coat mitsuomi took a seat and opened the bundle. Inside were numerous files that included where tsunade was being held but not shizune, including the list of jobs the council may ask him to do. Zetsuei manifested across from him, "So whats the plan...will you accept their offer" she asks.
"My plan was to save Tsunade and Shizune..then restore her to power as Hokage...Make Hinata my Hime but that changed...I've decided to reform the Rokukage with them as members and return Tsunade to power...So for a few days I'll be the good little soldier" he explains. Zetsuei smirks softly and looks over the jobs, "I highly doubt Konoha has many allies...Suna only through force...Iwa hates them...Kumo wants only power...Kiri may help?...but I doubt it" she comments. Mitsuomi looked over the prison blueprint, "it will be easy to get in...I don't have chakra and most traps work on that principal and getting out with two people may a bit tricky but not problematic" he says and slams his fist into his palm, "Yosh...tomorrow I go see Hinata...I'll accept their offer...do the job I circled and then we rescue Tsunade and Shizune...Then kick it to Wave" he adds. Zetsuei nods and dispels as mitsuomi packs the bundle then goes to sleep.
"Naruto...Sasuke" bellowed through the area as the pair channeled their strongest attacks, in thunderous explosion. Naruto awoke with a start in cell chained to the ceiling, "Awake huh Demon" a voice sneers. Naruto looked to see sasuke flanked by sakura, kakashi and tsunade, "What is this" he mutters out. Sakura closed the gap with a hard right to his face, "You tried killing Sasuke-kun" she hissed. Naruto balked at her tone, "I had to fight him...he wanted to leave with Orochimaru" he says but sakura punches him again.
"Sakura Enough...he must live to fulfill his duty" kakashi comments.
"What duty?!" naruto asks but sasuke grabs him by the hair, "Well Dobe..You're going help me attain ultimate power...With your death I'll attain the Mangekyō Sharingan" he sneers. Tsunade stepped forward and naruto saw an almost glazed over look in her eyes, "Naruto Uzumaki by order of the Konoha council and signed by myself..You are deemed a traitor to the Leaf and will be executed by Sasuke Uchiha in two weeks" she declares. The four left and naruto hung his head and endured the torture that came. The day of the execution was a banner affair for the village to see the demon finally destroyed. Naruto was bound with his chest out as sasuke stood before him, "Time to Die Dobe" he sneers and charges his chidori. The villagers cheered as the lightning struck his chest but naruto grins as sasuke sees no changes to his eyes, "Is that all you can do..I expected more...I'm Hurt...
Mitsuomi bolted up with a start and a ragged sigh escaped his lips, "don't worry little Sasuke...I'll pay you back in Spades" he thought. Mitsuomi grabs his coat and his sword to head to the bathhouse and clean up but realized he had no money. However the old woman that owned it felt sorry for him or rather made him strip to ogle him, allowing him to bathe for free. Mitsuomi sighed contently in the steaming bath but felt numerous eyes watching, "Now I know how zoo animals feel" he thought. Mitsuomi quickly finished and left in a hurry but the owner managed to smack his butt as he left and blew him kisses. Mitsuomi headed to the square for the time and it was ten minutes to ten and he quickly headed for the Forest of Death. Meanwhile hinata was nearing the gate to the Forest of Death but she was being followed and she couldn't shake them. Hinata reached the gate but a wave of wind and dust rolled in, then someone lifted her up and leaps over the gate.
"Mitsuomi-kun" hinata sputters and mitsuomi grins, "Sorry I was late" he states as they land on a huge tree. Mitsuomi lets hinata down and they sit on a large branch, "Won't my clan follow me in and find us" she asks. Mitsuomi pulls down his hood, "Nope...I erected a special barrier call Ryūō shōheki or Dragon King barrier...its cuts us off from the outside world...I used it last night to see you...Now" he says. Mitsuomi sighs softly and looks at the trees, "When Sasuke killed me...I was reborn in a place called the Soul Society..I guess its like Heaven...I was born Mitsuomi Kiriyu but nothing changed...I was treated like here but I found people to care for me like Ayame-chan and her dad...in fact they were exactly like them...as I grew up...I started to remember everything but ignored it...As I got older...I became a Shinigami...I made the world notice me and it paid off...I became a Captain of the Gotei13...its the military of the Soul Society and they help people cross over and lost souls who became hollows..." he explains.
"Hollows?" hinata asks and mitsuomi scratches his ear, "Hollows are creatures that were once people but loss something and couldn't pass over...However...I had a hollow too but he and I saw eye-to eye...which made me stronger than others like me with hollow powers..." he said. Hinata grasps his hand and pulls her hand to his cheek, "Listen...I know three years have passed since I died but to me it was three hundred years ago...it seems time passes differently" he says and hinata gasps, "but how were able to come back..like this" she asks.
"I was dying after a tough battle...I gave everything I had to win...Kami-sama gave me a choice and I chose to come here as this to save you...Shizune and Tsunade...he showed me everything including my parents...Kushina Uzumaki and Minato Namikaze the Yondaime Hokage" mitsuomi states. Hinata's eyes widen at mitsuomi's lineage, "The Yondaime but why was something like that hidden" she whispers. Mitsuomi kicks his legs on the branch, "I Think...Gramps feared for my safety but unintentionally caused me to be the village outcast" he said. Hinata slowly nodded but went back to the other statement, "You're here to save Tsunade-sama and...Shizune...sama..." she says and he nods, "Yes but I need to play an act first...the council wants me as human weapon because of my Shinigami powers..I spun a convincing story to them...I will do one job for them...then we will save them and all four of us are leaving Konoha" he says and hinata hugged him.
"Alrite..now this is the most important...Be prepared to leave at Dawn one week from now..only the essential...I'll come get you..then we get them" mitsuomi says and she mumbles in his chest. Mitsuomi picks hinata up again and heads for the gate, before sharing another kiss and her vanishing with a swirl of leaves. Mitsuomi shunpos to the his father's head and looks over the city, "I will bring this nation to its knees and the Will of Fire will return...Too long have you spit in the faces of these men and woman...I swear on my honor as both Mitsuomi Kiriyu and Naruto Uzumaki...I Will Correct the Mistakes brought on by your Arrogance...Datteboyo!" he thought and opted not to say aloud, to blow his cover.

Sasuke and the council waited as the clock slowly reached twelve and when it clicked twelve mitsuomi opened the door. Danzō stood at the foreground with a file, "Have you come to a decision" he asked. Mitsuomi dropped to one knee with a nod, "I accept..you may use me however you wish" he states. The council murmurs and sasuke rises from his seat as danzō hands mitsuomi the file, "You are to find Orochimaru and Kill him...bring back his sword as proof...the file contains his location...that fool has gone out of his way to try and get me...I have no need for a fool like him" sasuke states. Mitsuomi pulls up his hood and slips the file in his coat, "On your order then..One dead Snake coming up" he states and vanishes in a swirl of wind. The council was stunned but sasuke only scoffs as he leaves, "a theatrical one" he thought. However the real mitsuomi was halfway to the target location, when he felt the clone dissipate. Mitsuomi landed on a tree with a smirk, "now the game begins" he thought and continued on. Mitsuomi reached the border of Oto after a day and a half, "even with all those eyes he stole...Danzō is good little tool huh" zetsuei quips. Mitsuomi light a cigarette with a grin, "Yep...the file he gave was the real one but none suspect I chose this job from the copy the day before and no one is the wiser but its foolish to think they would think he was in Rice Country" he muses.
"However no one would suspect he's here in his main base in Otogakure...being this place was a hotbed three years ago after his failed invasion" mitsuomi adds, dropping to the road. Mitsuomi headed towards the gate and saw the town had seen better days, not looking like a ninja village but more like den of bandits. Mitsuomi stopped in his tracks as several bandits got in his path and from behind, "you like you got money...hand it over and we'll let live long enough for Orochimaru-sama to play doctor" one says. However mitsuomi starts laugh and reaches for his sword, "Looks like I was Right" he croons. Meanwhile in a base located within the mountain overlooking Otogakure, a certain Snake Sannin was reading a very interesting report. Orochimaru titters as he places the report on the table, "Kukuku...is this true Kabuto...most interesting" he purrs. The white haired kabuto adjusts his glasses, "Yes Lord Orochimaru...from what we can gather...This Mitsuomi Kiriyu killed both Sasori of the Red Sand and Deidara a nuke-nin from Iwa and our spy in the council chamber before he died sent us word...that he wields strange powers that even surpasses the Uchiha" he notes. An evil smile forms on his lips as orochimaru rises, "Kabuto...have a team ready to find this Mitsuomi and bring him into the fold before the Leaf or any other nation can sink their hooks into him...Then later I'll make his body my own...Kukuku" he says and kabuto bows. However a crushing force forced them both to their knees, explosions and screams soon filled the air as this fierce force drew closer, making even the air thicker. The door opposite them started to buckle and the pressure ceased, as the door fell off its hinges with a thud.
"Knock knock...Who's there...A Snake...Past tense...hahahaha" a voice chuckles. Orochimaru and kabuto make it to their feet as the man just on their minds strolled in, "Mitsuomi Kiriyu?!" orochimaru hissed out. Mitsuomi smirks at the snake glances to his partner on mitsuomi's left and kabuto molded chakra in his left hand. Mitsuomi's left eye flashed for a split second and kabuto froze, before putting his fingers to his chest and dug them in.
"Wha..what are you..nrrggh...doing to me?!" kabuto sputters out, digging his fingers further onto his chest and blood trickling out his mouth. Orochimaru remained stuck in his spot looking for an opening but mitsuomi clucks his tongue, "tsk..tsk..tsk you're toy is about to die and you're trying attack me...Now I see why Sasuke-chan wants you Dead" he says, as kabuto crushes his heart. The white hair nin dropped to his knees with a confused expression etched on his face and his hand stuck in chest. Orochimaru clenched his fists but took a deep breath to regain his composure, "Wow...you are good...this will be fun...to get a crack at one of the Legendary Sannin" mitsuomi says and licks his thumbs, then pounds his fists together.
[song playing...Orochimaru Fighting theme {Exended}]
Orochimaru lets his long tongue escape his mouth with a hiss and bit his thumb, "Kuchiyose no Jutsu" he shouts, slamming his palm into the floor. A large billow of smoke filled the room and mitsuomi braces as something pushes him out and through several walls, to the outside and he got a look at the force. A large purple snake with black rings running down intervals on his body and orochimaru on it's head had sent him outside. Mitsuomi focuses his reiatsu and skids to a halt in mid-air, "Kukuku..You're even capable of levitation...my soon to be new body has many secrets" orochimaru states. Mitsuomi softly titters as he draws his sword, "Last time I saw you big fella..I saw the boss toad rip you a new one" he says, resting the blade on his shoulder. Manda leaned forward, "The only bossss toad..I know isss Gamabunta and I've never sssseen you before...but you Sssmell Familiar" he hissed but leaned back with a massive hiss. Mitsuomi kicked back as the snake launched forward and orochimaru wasn't being idle, "Fūton...Daitoppa [Wind Style:Great Breakthrough]" he shouts. A severe gust of wind whipped forward but mitsuomi swings forward, blocking himself but uprooted the forest around them.
"Katon...Gōen no Jutsu [Fire Style: Great Flame Technique]" orochimaru howls, now sending a wide range fireball but mitsuomi vanishes and orochimaru had already switched with a mud clone as mitsuomi cleaves him in half. Mitsuomi landed on manda and the snake shifted to spew a copious amount of stomach acid but the shinigami launched skyward. Orochimaru shunsins behind mitsuomi as two snakes coil around him, trying to crush the life from him but mitsuomi smirks as he vanishes, leaving just his coat and slams a weighted kick to orochimaru's face while grabbing his coat. Manda charged from behind and mitsuomi shifts with his left hand pointed at the snake, "Sprinkled on the bones of the beast!..Sharp tower..Red crystal..Steel ring...Move and become the wind...Stop and become the calm...The sound of warring spears fills the empty castle...Hadō #63 Raikōhō" he roars, engulfing the manda in a golden blast. The golden blast detonated like a firestorm destroying a large section of the forest and as the flames died down, only a charred husk of manda remains. However a rumble engulfed the area as manda erupted under mitsuomi, "Fuck...he shredded his skin" he shouts, as snake swallows him. Orochimaru watched from the distance, "Good Manda" he sneers. Mitsuomi digs his sword into manda's tough inner skin to stop himself, "Shit" he thought but a smirk forms. Mitsuomi focused his reiatsu and black with purple energy formed in his free right hand, "Hadō #90...Kurohitsugi" he recites, as a black box formed. Manda hissed in agony as blood sprayed from a box size wound in his side. Mitsuomi launched out the hole as manda slams into the ground and disappears in huge puff of smoke.
Mitsuomi pulls his sheath from his belt and jams it in the ground and wraps his coat around it as orochimaru approached, "I will need a serious bath after this" he thought, strolling forward. Orochimaru maintained a straight face as the pair stood in a veritable wasteland, "Ready to go again...Orochimaru or are you all show and no go..just like in the Forest of Death" mitsuomi says, tilting his head and rest his sword on his shoulder. Orochimaru arches an eyebrow with a stare, "that is twice this boy has mentioned things in the past but I've never seen him and those Jutsu were like nothing I've seen" he thought and grins, "Oh yes your body will do Nicely" he croons. Mitsuomi grins softly and digs his boot in the dirt, "You sure you want this body...This body is gonna Kill you soon for that little Girl" he states. Orochimaru drops nearly flat like a snake as mitsuomi raises his sword, "Now your open eyes..because you'll be the first to witness this here" he states and his reiatsu shatters the ground, "Awaken...Zetsuei" he declares. Orochimaru's eyes narrowed but his breath hitched as a gale erupted around mitsuomi including purple with black tinted aura. A strange black with red tint sword soon replaced his katana, "If you're confused...call this sword a Claymore" mitsuomi shouts. Orochimaru opens his mouth wide and spews thousands of snakes but suddenly all of them spewed swords from their mouths. Mitsuomi remains firm and grips his sword tight, "Flame-Earth Dragon Dance" he shouts, driving his sword in the ground. Molten earthen spike erupted from the ground in thunderous fashion, obliterating the snakes and sends a plume of dirt fifteen feet high.
"Another strange Jutsu...it combined fire and earth styles...I want him even more...Show me more" orochimaru thought and regurgitates his sword of Kusanagi. Mitsuomi sprinted from the dust cloud with unheard of speed to meet orochimaru's sword like clap off thunder, "Kukuku...your weapon is indeed powerful to stand against my Kusanagi" orochimaru says but gasps, as a crack forms on the blade. The moment of distraction gave mitsuomi enough time to create a gap and slice orochimaru in half. Orochimaru floated upward as his lower half staggers back but snakes shot from both ends, reattaching the body as mitsuomi moves back.
"Kukuku...you truly are a marvel to think..a creation such as yourself exists" oroachmaru states. Mitsuomi slicks back his hair with a smirk, "That is true...so as a token of respect to a legend..I'll end this with one of my strongest attacks" he says, as he swipes his face. Orochimaru immediately backpedals nearly twenty feet as energy forms on mitsuomi's face and coalesces into a faceless white mask with just glowing gold irises, a purple lightning mark and small holes at the bottom, "What is this dense and foul energy?!...its as if a Tailed beast stands before me" he thought. Mitsuomi runs his sword along his left palm and points the hand as it bleeds, purple energy started to form like a vacuum but as the blood mixes, causes it to turn bright blue and swells in size as it loses shape. Orochimaru quickly bites his thumbs as mitsuomi keeps firm, "Gran rey Cero" he shouts. The blast erupts and moves like a razor towards orochimaru as he slams his palms into the dirt, "Kuchiyose: Triple Rashōmon" he shouts. Three massive demon faced gates erupt from the ground as the cero charges but it erases both them and orochimaru in a thunderous explosion.
"A fitting first test of my powers in this World" mitsuomi mused and removed his mask. Mitsuomi launched towards the crater as smoke cleared to reveal orochimaru with both legs and an arm missing, "those did their job..if he's that intact" he says, landing. However orochimaru open his mouth and his Kusanagi pierces mitsuomi's square in the chest, "Kukuku...its seems I must take your body sooner rather than later" he hisses. Mitsuomi grimaces with wide eyes but a smirk forms, "Ya think so" he sputters.
"Bakudō #61..Rikujōkōrō" a voice shouts behind. Orochimaru jerks and sees mitsuomi as six yellow lights pierce him at the waist, "Bakudō #63..Sajō Sabaku" he adds, as yellow chains wrap around him.
"Ho..How?!..I stabbed you" orochimaru hissed but saw the mitsuomi before him turn to sand, "One of my many new talents but similar to my old trick..the Tajū Kage Bunshin" he states. Orochimaru tries to free himself but can't move, "Who are you really...not some weapon...I suspected that from your comments" he asked. Mitsuomi plants his sword in the dirt and stalks closer, "First you tried to mess my seal...Then you tried to get Gaara to destroy the Leaf...worst of all you Killed Gramps...However you set in motion the events That Led to my Execution!" he states. Orochimaru showed his shock with a shake of his head, "Naruto Uzumaki?!..." he starts but mitsuomi erases everything below his neck with another but purple cero. The head fell to the dirt as mitsuomi drove his sword into it to make sure the snake was really dead, "You realized it too Fucking Late" he smirks. [song ends]
Mitsuomi lifted his sword with orochimaru's head still attached as zetsuei manifests to retrieve his sheath and coat, "That was a fitting warm up and a good gauge...I'm still as strong as I was fighting Soichiro..maybe more..now that I'm healed" he thought. Zetsuei returned and the pair headed back to base but she made a face, "You smell horrible..I hope you left a shower in there" she quips. Zetsuei looked for a shower room and mitsuomi heads back to his initial attack to find kabuto's body still there, then drags it with him to another room. Mitsuomi found the armory and placed orochimaru's head on a table and then sliced off kabuto's head to place it next to each other.
"I found a room..go shower..I'll watch the heads" zetsuei states and he hands her the sword. Mitsuomi pulled off his shirt in the hall, revealing his battle scars as he neared the room. Zetsuei had even found him some new clothes, consisting of black cargo pants, a long one sleeve fishnet armor shirt and a sleeveless form fitting shirt. Mitsuomi sighed contently as the hot water washed over his skin, "And so the Games Begin" he muses.

Hinata headed towards the main gates of Konoha with her teammates Shino Aburame, Ino Yamanaka and their sensei Kurenai Yūhi, after returning from a mission. Ino wore fishnet armor under a purple coat that connected at the chest, leaving her midriff open, a purple skort with knee length boots. Shino had most of his body covered by a bulky clothes and glasses over his eyes. Kurenai wore a red mesh armour blouse with only the right sleeve visible and a very broad material which resembles bandages including a pattern on it similar to those of rose thorns, with her hands and upper thighs are also wrapped in bandages. Hinata herself wore blue cargos pants with ninja sandals, a Chūnin vest over a fishnet armor shirt and a unzipped dark blue coat, with white sleeves and a yin-yang symbol on the back. The team reaches the gate and spies someone talking to the gate guardians but hinata knew exactly who it was, "Mitsuomi-kun" she thought. Mitsuomi placed his bag on the ground, "ok my good fellows...you may contact the council and tell them my job was a success and I come baring gifts" he states. The two guardians saw the team and acknowledge them, "Welcome back Team 8...your mission was a success" one named izumo asks. Ino puffs out her chest with a smirk, "Of course once those fools knew we were Leaf-nin...they ran like cowards" she boasts. Mitsuomi and hinata wanted to shake their heads but he caught kurenai looking at him, "Who are you Sir" she asks, sizing him up. Mitsuomi clicked his boots with a bow, "Hajimemashite...I am Mitsuomi Kiriyu and I was commissioned by Uchiha-sama and the council for an S-class job" he says.
"I see...I am Kurenai Yūhi...this Ino Yamanaka...Shino Aburame and Hinata Hyūga" kurenai states. Mitsuomi nods to shino and he does the same, a bow to ino but he takes hinata by the hand and kisses her knuckle.
"Hey..How come she gets a kiss and I get a bow" ino shouts. Mitsuomi rubs his chin, "Hmm...well I just felt this need to do so" he says.
"Kiriyu the council is expecting you at the Hokage tower" kotetsu states. Mitsuomi slips his bag on his shoulder, "Um Ms. Yūhi...would it be a big trouble for Ms. Hyūga to escort me to the tower..I still don't really know my way around" he asks. Kurenai looked towards hinata and then to him, "it will be fine" she says and the pair bow, excusing themselves. Ino clucked her tongue with a huff, "Why does that demon lover get to escort that guy" she says and kurenai glances her way, "I heard..He was some human weapon from the North that the council is using...I also heard he killed two S-class nuke-nin" she states. Ino gasps with wide eyes and even shino was visibly shocked, "Fuck him...Sasuke-kun is still cooler" she thought.
Hinata did her best to stop the blush on her cheeks as mitsuomi was on her right side, "are still ready for tomorrow" he says, in a hushed tone. Hinata carefully nodded as they turned up the street to the tower, "Yes...I will be training at field twenty...no one disturbs me there" she replies. Kakashi stood at the door as the pair approaches, "Hinata why are with him" he asks.
"My apologizes but I asked Ms. Hyūga to bring me here so I wouldn't get lost...she and her team were at the gates" mitsuomi states, bowing and hinata nods. Unbeknownst to two of the three sasuke and danzō were peering down, "he has returned in just six days but according to our hunter teams...it would take two weeks back and forth...Truly a frightening weapon we've acquired...its a shame he is but one man...just imagine a whole team" danzō remarks. Sasuke watches with a calculating eye, "This reiatsu as he calls it should be no different than a bloodline-limit...we'll have him breed for stock" he says and both head for the council chamber. Mitsuomi bows deeply to hinata, "I bid you good day and thank you for the escort" he says and she bows as well, "it was nice meeting you Kiriyu-san" she states and shunsins away. Mitsuomi shifted his bag and followed kakashi to the meeting hall, "not long now...Hime and you too Aniki" he thought, staring at the masked Jōnin. Kakashi opened the doors and the council was waiting for him with danzō in front, "You have returned so quickly...you have impressed the council" he states. Mitsuomi places the bag on a small table and opened it, revealing the decaying severed heads of orochimaru and kabuto. The civilian side of the council looked away in horror and the shinobi remained calm, "So you were able to defeat that immortal snake" sasuke comments, nearing the table.
"Hai..Uchiha-sama...his skills were a sight to behold but I succeeded in the end and destroyed his main base in Otogakure...the one in Rice Country was a false lead" mitsuomi says. Sasuke glanced back to danzo, "its seems our intelligence division needs work" he comments and drops an envelope with a black leaf Hitai-ate, "Your payment and your proof you now belong to the Leaf" he adds.
"Thank you very much Uchiha-sama and I have a question...at the gate I was told this was the Hokage tower...are you Konoha's Hokage" mitsuomi says and sasuke laughs, "No...the title of Hokage was abolished after Tsunade Senju was locked up" he said. Mitsuomi slowly bows to them, "I see...then excuse me" he says and leaves with tap of the envelope on his shoulder. Mitsuomi walked through the halls in silence, "You're a Leaf-nin again albeit for about a day if you get that far" zetsuei comments and he smirks, "yea and it will serve as the message" he thought, tying it to his belt. Mitsuomi returned to the Hokage monument, instead of the Namikaze estate as someone may have found the broken lock. The former jinchūriki now shinigami looked over the village with a rueful sigh, "Now I see where Ravenhelm got its look from" he thought, erecting his barrier and slipping into jinzen. Mitsuomi opened his eyes again to ruined version of konoha with him atop a mountain but a church like structure stood behind him. Zetsuei manifested behind him and took a seat, "tomorrow is D-day as for the Rokukage...Have you decided on any others beside Tsunade...Shizune and Hinata" she asks, manifesting a kiseru. Mitsuomi focused on the ruined city below as the moon hung in the sky and the lightning danced, "Perhaps Kakashi...he's under Genjutsu like Tsunade was...I can break it but I need him away from the village...if not I'll see about the other two spots" he muses, laying back. Zetsuei took a long drag on blew a big puff of smoke, "Bouwah...just don't turn this into your personal Harem" she muses and he glares, "Don't give me that look...you love Hinata...you have a crush on Tsunade and I saw you eyeballing Kiba's mom" she shot. Mitsuomi only harrumphed and turned only his side as zetsuei starts laughing, "Goodnight Goshujin-sama" she muses and he blushes.
IXI
Hinata slowly opened her eyes and saw the early morning light, "its time" she thought, climbing out of bed. At the same time atop the Yondaime mitsuomi stood, "its time" he thought, leaping down. Hinata dressed herself in black cargos with ninja sandals, her fishnet armor and her coat with some pink fingerless gloves. Hinata then filled a storage scroll with some essentials and her fox plushy, before slipping out the compound only telling the guards she was going train. Hinata headed to her secluded training ground at a regular pace, as not to arouse the suspicion of anyone. The training ground was near the forest of death and hardly anyone used it. Mitsuomi crouched in a large tree and scanned the area for anyone as hinata approached and found no one. Hinata saw mitsuomi drop from a tree and quickly made her way to him, "You ready" he asks and she nods, "alrite hop on" he adds, kneeling. Hinata climbs in his back and wraps her arms around his neck, while he grabs her legs. Mitsuomi leaps into shunpo and hinata holds tighter, "it won't be long" he shouts and she manages a nod but he stops. Hinata sees they're near the prison holding tsunade, "ok...you go first..I'll sneak from behind" he says, letting her down. Hinata leaps down to the street as mitsuomi vanishes, "Chūnin Hyūga...Why are you here" a voice says, as she nears the building. Hinata looked up to see two ANBU with a owl mask and the other with a wolf but both had symbols for ROOT. The two ROOT ANBU dropped down in front of hinata in slightly guarded stances, "I ask again..Why are you here Chūnin Hyūga" the owl asks.
"I am here to Free Tsunade-sama" hinata says, with confidence. The wolf chuckles deeply and reaches for his sword as does owl, "You and what Army" he sneers.
"Right behind You" mitsuomi says and owl turns to an elbow to the face, shattering his mask, nose and several teeth. Wolf maneuvered for a right cross but mitsuomi catches his fist and twists, snapping the arm and a back elbow to knock him out. Hinata was amazed by mitsuomi's taijutsu skill and it seemed more skilled than Lee, "what Taijutsu was that" she asks.
"Its called Muay Thai...it utilizes..knees..kicks and elbow strikes its very useful" mitsuomi says and the pair head towards a two-story bunker.
"Now...According to the plans I acquired...this leads underground to the prison cells" mitsuomi comments. Hinata reaches for the handle, "and with its security...it will be sometime before someone comes looks" mitsuomi adds but hinata finds the door locked, "we have a problem" she says. Mitsuomi approached with his sword clicked out of her sheath, "stand back" he says, reaching for the sword. Mitsuomi quickly drew across the door and returned zetsuei to her sheath, at first hinata thought nothing had happened but her eyes widen as two large gashes appeared and the door fell off the hinges.
"Come on the noise will attract attention" mitsuomi says and hinata follows him inside. The pair encountered no resistance as they reached the stairs to the catacombs below but hinata noted the numerous seals restricting chakra, "I won't be able to use chakra" she says. Mitsuomi glances back as they reach a fork, "Don't you worry..you won't have to...this way" he said, as they took the right fork. The pair traveled twenty feet and came to a single cell, "She's in here but she's alone...where's Shizune" mitsuomi asks. Hinata looked at feet for moment but looked up and saw his eyes covered in darkness, "My Father told me that the council used her too...forced her to attack Tsunade-sama and when she didn't...they...they..." she says but mitsuomi places a hand on her shoulder, "don't force yourself" he soothes. Mitsuomi turned to the door and with a heavy step in, broke the door off the hinges with a left straight. Hinata rushes pass mitsuomi as they step in to find tsunade chained to the wall and naked as the day of her birth, also covered in paper seals and blindfolded.
"W..Who's there?!...Speak you co..cowards" tsunade hissed, her voice raspy and guilt ridden. Mitsuomi slipped off his coat as hinata made her way to tsunade, "Tsunade-sama..Its me Hinata" she says and reaches for the blindfold, "Hinata?!...Oh no were you arrested as well" tsunade asks. Hinata removes the blindfold and the older woman winces from the light, "No...we're here to save you" hinata says and points. Tsunade squints to see a young man with steel-blue eyes but one had a black sclera but he shocks her by breaking the chains with ease.
"Hinata help her put on the coat...we need to leave soon" mitsuomi says. Tsunade slipped on the coat and hinata helps her button it, "Who are you and why would you help me...I deserve to be here..because of my weakness...I lost two people dear to me" she says. Mitsuomi turned to fully face her, "I'm Mitsuomi Kiriyu and I'm saving you because I want to Baa-chan" he states. Tsunade fell silent as hinata helps her out the cell with mitsuomi taking point, "just who is he Hinata" she whispers. Hinata glances to mitsuomi, "its best he tell you...when we're safe" she replies. Mitsuomi focuses his senses as they traveled back up and noted the guards had not moved but a small smirk forms, sensing the three waiting at the entrance.
"Its seems we will encounter resistance at the entrance in form of Danzō Shimura and his guards..Fū Yamanaka and Torune Aburame" mitsuomi comments. Hinata and tsunade froze in their tracks with wide eyes, "Danzō?!...look Gaki...I know you think you're strong but Danzō was the one who hooked me...you can't beat him alone" tsunade states.
"I agree..Naru..Mitsuomi-kun...I will help you" hinata says, catching her slip. Mitsuomi glanced back with a smirk, "Trust me..this is all part of the plan" he says and the pair reluctantly follow. The three reach the ground level of the bunker and reach the door as danzō, fū and torune stood, "Chūnin Hyūga...you bring disgrace on our village and your family" danzō remarks.
"You're the Disgrace..Danzō...you betrayed everything my Grandfather...Granduncle and Sensei gave their lives for" tsunade shouts, finding her voice. Danzō shook his head but levels a glare to mitsuomi, "I knew it was unwise to trust you Cur but I'll correct this mistake...no need for Uchiha-sama to sully his hand" he states, removing his hidden arm, with three locks around it from his clothes. Mitsuomi glances back as his shadow expands and a clone of him appears, "Yami..take to them to that place...I'll catch up" he orders. Yami salutes and takes tsunade in his arms, "please follow me Hime~de gesu..." he says.
"Gaki...are you insane?!" tsunade shouts. Mitsuomi looks back, "I told you Baa-chan...I got this...Datteboyo" he states and yami vanishes with hinata in tow.
[song playing...Naruto OST - Kakuzu -{Extended}]
Fū and torune block danzō as mitsuomi folds his arms, "Lets not fall out here...I may have told you a teenie..weenie..little...Lie but C'mon...You had to expect it..thats why you came here after all" he states but rubs his chin and snaps fingers, "Or maybe because I told you to come here" he adds. Danzō's visbile eye narrows, "Fū..Torune support me...I will release my seals..keep his attention" he states and both nod.
"Torune...lets attack together..watch my back" fū states and torune nods as they charge. Mitsuomi slowly unfolds his arms as torune leaps up and fires a barrage of kunai but mitsuomi backflips several times. Fū shunsins behind him as he lands with several quick handsigns, "Shintenshin..." he starts but mitsuomi vanishes completly. Fū and torune look franticly around but mitsuomi grabs fū in a sleeper hold, "Too slow" he croons. Torune fires a kunai but at the last moment mitsuomi shifts fū and it grazes his cheek, "He has no chakra...how can he be so fast" torune thought. Fū struggled to move but mitsuomi constricted more, "Torune...Attack him now" fū shouts. Torune pulls off his gloves with his teeth, revealing his hands completely purple as he sprints forward. Mitsuomi chuckles in his throat, "So you're the decoy...Huh" he sneers, snapping fū's neck and tossing him forward. Torune freezes for but a moment and mitsuomi appears behind with two fingers aimed at his back, "Hadō #4...Byakurai" he states and a bolt of lightning erupts from torune's chest. Mitsuomi skids to a halt and dodges danzō from behind as torune and fū hit the ground, "Hoh...you would be a great member of the Onmitsukidō...If your comrade is being defeated...you should see it as an opportunity...Rather than standing in the way...you should stab the enemy in the back...and if the enemy is so far above your level that you cannot even manage that...then you should let your comrade die" he states, seeing danzō's sharingan filled arm. Danzō pushes back into a flurry of hands signs, "Fūton...Shinkūgyoku[Wind Style: Vacuum Bullets]" he shouts, firing a barrage of air bullets. Mitsuomi dodges with ease and somersaults to land on the roof of the bunker, "Hadō #33 Sōkatsui" he shouts, firing a blue blast. Danzō takes the attack head on but mitsuomi smirks and turns to danzō behind him, "Fūton...Shinkū Taigyoku[Wind Style: Vacuum Bomb]" he shouts, firing a huge wave of wind. Mitsuomi slams hard into the ground and danzō chases after him but only finds paper in the crater, "Oh so very close...you know Danzō...when I was tellin' you my story...you're eyes lit like a kid at christmas...too bad that sealed your fate" mitsuomi says. Danzō turns to have his right arm severed and a gash erupted on his chest, "Danzō pinning your hopes on Izanagi to stop me are useless..." he says, turning to the real danzō atop the bunker.
"Its not useless..I will discern your weakness" danzō states. However mitsuomi grins wide and points, "why you dont you take a good look at your arm" he shouts. Danzō looks and does a double take seeing all the eyes were closed, "Impossible?!...I havent used that many" he thought. Mitsuomi appears behind danzō and he turns to see a starred pinwheel in mitsuomi's left eye, "I told you this was for show...That may have a lie...when you looked me in the eye..you were trapped in my Tsukiyomi and everything you've done was for my benefit..." he states. Danzō glares and reaches for his bandage and mitsuomi drives his thumb in the eye, "You gave me the blueprints of Baa-chan's prison...you gave me Orochimaru's real location in Otogakure and you came here to be my message to the little girl" he states. Danzō staggers back clutching his face and pulls a kunai but mitsuomi flashes pass him and six deep gashes open on his chest, back, arms and legs. Danzō draws last his breaths with a wide eye and mitsuomi laughs out, "Take heart Danzō...Naruto Uzumaki sent you to your grave" as the war-hawk collaspes. Meanwhile sasuke looked over the village from the Hokage tower as sakura opened the door with kakashi behind her, "Has Danzō returned from Tsunade's prison to tell that old hag of her execution" he states. Sakura softly smirks, "I wish I could've seen her face" she sneers and runs her fingers along his shoulder, "Can we kill Hinata next...that demon lover needs to die" she purrs. Kakashi stares but looks to see what appeared blue lightning bolts in the sky, "What is that Uchiha-sama" he states. Sasuke and sakura see the bolts in the sky, "that looks near our old training ground" she remarks. Sasuke grabs his sword off the wall and beckons for them to follow, "it might be a challenge" he said. The three former members of team seven made their way to their former training ground. Sakura stifled a shriek and swooned on the verge of vomiting, while sasuke stood with searing anger and kakashi wide eyed. The trio saw danzō tied to wooden pole, his arms impaled on spikes with the heads of Fū and Torune atop the spikes through his hands. Danzō's chest was bare and a message scrawled in blood, "Is that all you can do...I Expected more...I'm Hurt" kakashi reads and turns to sasuke, "Is that all you can do...I expected more..I'm hurt...what does it mean" he asks. However sasuke paled hearing that phrase and it had haunted him for three years, "how could he know that" he mutters. Sasuke clenched his fist and turned from the corpses, "it does mean something...that Fucking Dobe said it before he died!" he shouts. Sasuke then glares at kakashi, "summon the council...Then you...Team eight and team Gai go to Wave...
