so here is the next chapter hope you like it.

i dont own naruto.

Naruto watched them for a while but they didn't say anything about what they were doing, Naruto of course already knew, so it didn't really matter. They didn't say much, other then the complaining of Deidara, and sasori telling him to shut up. After tailing them for a little while, Naruto was trying to decide if he should attack them. He knew he could take one out without alerting anyone that wasn't close, he knew he could beat both of them. But could he beat both of them without drawing attention? He didn't know. So after careful planning, he decided he would take out, or at least wound Deidara first, while Sasori was more dangerous, Deidara's explosions attracted a lot of attention.

So after preparing for his ambush he attacked.

Naruto sprang from the trees and headed straight for Deidara, both ninja spun around, but Naruto was already on them, he sent a punch to Deidara's head, which he ducked under relatively easily, but then Naruto opened his fist and a fine dust sprinkled onto Deidara. Who stood up, but then fell right back down, "What did you do to me? I cant see!" he screamed.

But Naruto was already jumping away. When he landed he made a handsign, Sasori saw this and shot his tail towards Naruto, who was forced to dodge. Naruto landed and threw a kunai at Sasori, who predictably blocked with his tail. But what Sasori didn't expect was that the kunai stuck to his tail via magnetic seal, then exploded.

Naruto made the same handsign as before, but was forced to abort again as Sasori shot his tail towards him. When the dust cleared Naruto saw Sasori, whose cloak had been destroyed by the explosion. He was down on all fours, his front right arm was torpedo shaper with studs on it. He had a shell on his back that resembled a mask of some sort with a metal tail coming out from it. And he had a bandana covering the lower part of his face.

Sasori opened his mouth, and started shooting senbon out of it at Naruto. Naruto saw this and knew he couldn't dodge them all without releasing some of his gravity seals, something Sasori had not let him do. So he flashed threw handsigns and said, "Waterstyle water encampment wall." a wall of water rose up in front of Naruto blocking the senbon.

Naruto then charged towards Sasori, who sent his tail to intercept. Naruto jumped over the tail and went over Sasori, as he did so he made a handsign. Sasori saw this and mover his tail to help block whatever was coming. Seals on Naruto's body glowed for a second, then disappeared. "resistance seal release master level 1 level 50." Naruto thought.

Sasori realized that a jutsu hadn't been launched, and looked at Naruto just in time to see him land, then disappear. He then felt a sword slice off his tail. He turned around and saw a a slight blur, before Deidara's head rolled from his shoulders. "Such speed!" Sasori thought but had no time to ponder on it as he was brutally attacked by Naruto's sword. He was only able to avoid deadly or crippling strikes.

But still, most of his weapons were disabled, his armor was nearly gone, and one of his legs was cut off at the knee. He didn't even have time to get out of his puppet. After a little more pounding Naruto stopped. Only slightly winded.

Sasori immediately took advantage and exited his cripples puppet. "And hiruko was my favorite." he thought to himself. Knowing he couldn't play around with this strange ninja he pulled two scrolls off of the holder on his back and unrolled them, he was about to unseal his puppets, but he had to jump away as Naruto drove his sword into the spot where he had just been standing, making a fairly large crater.

Naruto pulled his sword out of the ground and charged at Sasori, who for the most part was defenseless. He had no time to do anything more then launch a few senbon at Naruto and dodge. This ninja was fighting like no one he had ever encountered before, like someone that had fought him before. Although not many, if anyone, knows he needs a little amount of time to set up his attacks, but once he has his 'footing' in the battle, he has enough time to initiate his attacks before his opponent ca get close, but in this fight he couldn't get away from this 'white devil' as it said on his vest.

At last, after dodging a downward strike he had managed to graze the ninja's arm with one of his senbon. Now with a normal senbon this would go almost unnoticed, but all of his weapons are coated in poison, which starts to work in minutes. Naruto could feel Kyuubi ridding his system of the poison, so he wasn't to worried about it.

Sasori smirked, "Now all I have to do is wait it…" he didn't finish as Naruto gathered a large amount of chakra, Sasori didnt know what he was doing, but he could feel the large amount of chakra gathering in his opponent. "Windstyle rasenshuriken!" Naruto said as a large blue sphere gathered in his hand, then formed into a shuriken shape and turned white. While holding it in one hand and charging towards Sasori he did a few one handed seals. When he was within ten meters of Sasori he threw it, and it connected. Doing not just the explosive damage, but also damage to individual cells. Before the attack dissipated Naruto brought his hand to his mouth, "Firestyle grand fireball jutsu." and launched a large fireball into the swirling mass of wind, resulting in a explosion.

Naruto shielded his face from the blast. When it all cleared Naruto saw Sasori's body, or at least what was left of it. He saw part of his face, and the upped portion of his chest. Naruto was about to walk away, but then noticed that Sasori's 'heart' was missing. He looked around to find which puppet Sasori had grafted himself into. That was when he saw a puppet get up and run towards the woods.

Naruto followed right behind him. After chasing him for a little while and avoiding the traps he laid while on the move, something he appeared to be quite good at, Naruto finally caught up to him and hit him in the side with a swift kick, knocking him to the ground.

Naruto was following with blade drawn ready to end Sasori's life right then, but at the last second Sasori rolled out of the way. Naruto tried for a few more slashes and jabs, but none were more then small cuts. Deciding he had already drawn to much attention, mostly do to the explosion from his rasenshuriken, he needed to end this. He made a handsign "Resistance seal release, level 20." he thought.

Sasori saw the seals glow on his what little was visible of his opponents skin. He knew that they were what granted him the tremendous speed boost earlier, and could only assume that he was now even faster. His thoughts were confirmed when Naruto shot forward. Sasori knew even if by some miracle he dodged this strike, he wouldn't make it another minute, so he just stood there at waited for his end.

Naruto charged forward, he saw Sasori not even attempting to move. He figured Sasori knew he was dead, and just didn't resist. Naruto reach Sasori and charged his blade with a large amount of wind chakra, then stabbed it into his heart, making sure Sasori couldn't jump to another puppet. When Naruto removed his sword, there was nothing left of where the heart had been, it was just a hole.

Naruto sheathed his sword, then sealed Sasori's body into a scroll, and went to collect Deidara's body, and Sasori's original body, but when he got there he noticed Deidara's boy wasn't there. He searched all around, but couldn't find any traces of it. He knew he had completely severed his head, he didn't even think he could survive after an injury like that.

So he assumed that someone had found his boy and took it. But he had no way of knowing. Sensing that some ninja were on there way here, Naruto set about gathering all of Sasori's equipment. Which went fairly quickly with the help of his clones. "I think I will keep the poison, it will be a great help to both ninja, and doctors alike, doctors can create a antidote for it and poisons like it, and ninja will have one of the most deadly poisons available as soon as we figure out how to produce it. I think ill get the puppets to, even though I cant use them. I bet Suna would love to have this many puppets made by Sasori of the red sands. Especially the one made from their Kazekage." Naruto thought to himself.

After his clones got everything and sealed it into scrolls, Naruto set off back to the leaf. When he arrived it was almost midnight. He knew the Hokage wouldn't be awake at this hour, so he started to head to his house. When he got there he undressed and took a short shower. Ate a little leftovers and went to sleep.

The next morning he woke at 6 and headed straight for the Hokage's office. When he got there he just went in as the secretary hadn't arrived yet.

Sarutobi looked when he heard the door open, "Ah, Naruto I assume your mission went well?" Sarutobi said. Not bothering hiding who Naruto was as he already had privacy seals up from when he was talking to an ANBU squad about some sensitive information.

"Yea old man it went well." Naruto said casually.

"So, did you figure out who those men were and why they were looking for the shukaku?" Sarutobi asked.

Naruto nodded, "They were to members of the Akatsuki. A group of S-class missing nin set on capturing all the biju." Sarutobi started to worry a little bit, a group of S-class missing nin was a force to e reconed with. "The two members I fought were Deidara, from Iwa and Sasori of the red sands from Suna. I fought and took both down., although when I came back Deidara's body was gone, but I'm sure there was no way he could of survived, as I decapitated him. But here is proof of Sasori's death. Naruto said as he pulled out a scroll and laid it on the sandaime's desk.

"Very good Naruto, do you have any other information about this group, the Akatsuki?" he asked.

"Yes I do, the group is made up of no more the ten primary members, each member wears a ring like these." Naruto said as he laid two rings down on the desk. The Hokage picked them up and examined them as Naruto continued, "These rings are required for the sealing of the biju into a statue. Now that we have these they only have possession of seven rings."

Sarutobi cast a questioning glance, "But you said there was a total of ten rings, what happened to the other one?"

"Orochimaru was apart of the group, and when he left he took his ring with him." Naruto said.

Sarutobi grimaced slightly at the mention of his former student. "Please continue Naruto, how doe not having the rings affect the sealing process?"

"From what I gathered from my other lifetime, it slows it down tremendously, with all ten rings it only take just over a day, but with one missing it takes nearly three. But with three rings missing I have no idea how long it would take, but I would guess somewhere near a week. But I do know that they only require one ring to do the sealing." Naruto said.

Sarutobi sat and thought about all this new information for a little while before speaking, "I see, this means that until we collect all the rings they can still seal them away, but it is severely hampered the fewer rings they have." Naruto nodded.

"I'm going to need a full mission report Naruto." the sandaime said. Naruto nodded as he sat down in a chair and started retelling his mission not leaving out any detail.

Meanwhile

Deidara was more thankful for his kekkei genkai now more then ever, not only did it grant him the mouths on his hands and chest to mold his clay, but the mouth on his chest also let him survive without a head for a short amount of time, as it could breath for him. Although he couldn't eat or drink. He could still die of blood loss, but he would make it to the Akatsuki hidden base before that happened, at least he hoped he would.

And there with medical help he could also re-grow his head, although it would take at least a month.

When Deidara reached the gate he opened it and stumbled in. as soon as he made it in he fell over, but was caught by Itachi, who was apparently just headed out on a mission as he was right next to the gate. Deidara was rushed to a table and Itachi used what medical jutsu he knew to at least slow down the bleeding until Kakuzu arrived to treat him further.

After they stopped all the bleeding and stabilized him, he started telling them what had happened, by writing it down. After Pein had read it to everyone, "This new foe, the Shiro Akuma, could become a problem if he can take down Deidara and Sasori in less then 30 minutes, and on top of that he didn't receive any injuries. Zetsu I want you to go and see what info you can get in this new enemy. The rest of you stay alert when your on your missions, we don't need anymore dead, or anymore rings lost." Pein spoke in a commanding voice to all the members of Akatsuki.

Zetsu immediately left to try and find information, and the rest of the Akatsuki talked about the possibilities of who this person could be.

thank you all for reading, although im not particularly proud of this chapter, it seems rushed, but i couldnt make it seem not rushed so maybe its just me.

thanks to all my reviewers.

smokeapound, somone else also said something along those lines a while back, so i started using shushin instead of shun shin. i also went to the site you suggested and i think it will be of great help in the future.

hyate23, you are correct, he could take them on but he needed to do so without drawing attention from any nearby shinobi, that was where his problem was. thank you for your review. and your right i dont need to please everyone. i also agree that this chapter probably makes it, especially because it give's you a little more insight to how strong naruto really is. i just hope it doesn't seemed to rushed.

well tell me what you think.
