A/N It's been a while. This was supposed to come out a lot earlier but I kept getting sidetracked and losing motivation to write, so sorry for that. This isn't really a comedy chapter, in fact this is pretty much all action and a bit of foreshadowing here in beginning and at the end with Naruto displaying one of his trump cards. If you're wondering Orika will be a crazy psycho bitch and will be a very evil person in this story.
I tried to 'Naruto-cize' the two characters I took from other manga works so that they would fit better into this universe. I hope I succeeded.
The Fox Boss reminded me that I can do polls (because I'm a forgetful idiot at times) so check on my profile within the next few days for a poll on who Naruto will give his virginity to.
Remember, I do not own anything at all. I bought a brownie but that won't be around for long so it doesn't count.

*Deep in Oto no Kuni, Orika's favorite laboratory*
The most hated and feared member of the sannin, Orika, was currently in one of her labs testing out one of her newest experiments. As she was pouring over the data she had just gotten she heard one of her kunoichi meekly announcing a messenger had arrived and was franticly trying to speak with her. Deciding to see what was so damned important (and willing to gut the messenger if it was not worth her attention) she left for her throne room and sat down as she called for the messenger to be let in.
"Speak." Orika said apathetically.
"O-o-orika-sama! Konoha has a new member!" the messenger blurted out in a frantic rush.
"… Let me get this straight, you interrupted my research because Konoha got a new kunoichi?" Orika said in a dangerous tone as she slowly got up, contemplating on the punishment she was about to deliver.
"It's a man! A man has abilities on par or even beyond that of kunoichi! He can bend elements to his will like the best element using kunoichi!" the messenger said in a rush to avoid being punished. At this Orika received a troubled look on her face before it twisted in anger and she exploded.
"WHAT!? A damned man has such abilities!" she yelled as she punched her solid stone throne with such force that it shattered into hundreds of pieces. Seemingly not caring about her now bleeding hand she hissed out. "Who is this man?"
"H-h-his name is Naruto. Naruto Uzumaki."
"I see. Get out of my sight. I need to think." She said after taking a moment to think. The messenger gladly ran out of the room as Orika wrathfully thought on this new situation. 'It seems the child of that bitch Minako has gained abilities. Men are the scum of the earth and should be wiped out. Kukukuku, I was planning on destroying Konoha anyways. Now I have even more reason to…" She concluded. It was well known throughout the kunoichi world that Orika virulently hated men and would kill one with little reason if it suited her. She believed that women were superior in every way and men were just the vestiges of a forgotten time that should die off.
"Soon Naruto, I will crush you. If only I could see the look on that bitch Minako's face as I tear her son apart piece by piece. Kukukuku…." Orika laughed as she formulated a plan to be rid of Naruto during her attack on Konoha. Maybe she would mount his head on her wall after brutally killing him? Decisions, decisions…
*Several miles from Nami no kuni*
"Forgive me for this Naruto-kun." Utakata said with a genuine note of sadness in voice as she hardened her resolve for what needed to be done. To her sides, her so far silent comrades removed their cloaks revealing them to be Tia Halibel (canon outfit but without a hollow mask underneath her collar) and Tsukiumi (also canon outfit from Sekirei), both considered dear comrades for Naruto when he fought alongside them during the Kiri civil war.
"I always wondered what you looked like underneath your cloak my dear Naruto-kun. Please return with us to your rightful place at my side…er… I mean on Kirigakure's side." Tsukiumi said as she blushed a bit from seeing Naruto without his all concealing cloak on.
"Yes. Please come with us." Said the, as usual, succinct Halibel. She was glad that the collar of her coat covered the bottom part of her face as she too was blushing rather vividly at finally seeing Naruto's face.
"Fuck. This isn't the most favorable situation." Hasaki said quietly to herself as she and Kasumi stood beside Naruto.
"Hmm, not only do we have the war hardened jinchuuriki of the six tails but we also have Halibel, a renowned kenjutsu expert who is rumored to be the one heading the new seven swordswomen of the mist and Tsukiumi, said to be the second coming of the nidaime Hokage when it comes to suiton ninjutsu. Hopefully they aren't as good as their bingo book entries state…" Kasumi said as she became troubled by how this situation was coming along.
"Uta-chan, how about a little wager?" Naruto said surprising everyone.
"What kind of wager?" Utakata said rather guardedly.
"Kasumi-chan, Hasaki-chan and I will square off against you and your comrades in one on one duels. Whichever side wins two out of three of these duels I will leave with." Naruto said simply. If his group and the Kiri kunoichi just started a massive fight here the chance that their currently subdued comrades being accidentally hit or becoming hostages were too great. With this it would be easier to fight seriously without fear of friendly fire.
"Hmm, what would be the rules of these duels?" Utakata knew that the purpose of this mission was to bring back Naruto, but if he was alienated and grew to hate Kiri because she was too heavy handed then it would all be for nothing. Besides, she had faith in her comrades in defeating the Konoha group.
"Standard rules." Naruto said. The standard rules were kunoichi duel guidelines established years ago by the five great kunoichi villages for when kunoichi wanted to settle a problem with one another in a somewhat more civilized manner than simple slaughter. In the ever changing world of the elemental nations, this was one thing that had lasted through the years with hardly any changes. The rules themselves were simple; no outside interference, any technique was allowed as long as the spectators weren't hurt, the match is over when a kunoichi dies, yields or simply can no longer fight and once the duel was over both sides must adhere to it. So going back on a deal or wager was deeply frowned upon and would make a village look bad if it seemed their kunoichi were untrustworthy. It was bad for business if you had untrustworthy kunoichi after all.
"Hmm, deal. We can pick who fights who though."
"Understood."
*A bit over half an hour later, in a nearby clearing*
After freeing their comrades, the Konoha group and the Kiri kunoichi found a surprisingly large clearing in which to conduct the fights. The atmosphere was tense and filled with an odd sense of excitement; while it was a serious situation that did not mean that this wasn't going to be enjoyable for those fighting. While everyone else was high up in the trees and waiting with bated breath for the start of the match, Hasaki and Halibel faced each other.
*With Hasaki and Halibel*
"I've always wanted to fight you Hasaki-senpai."
"Thanks. It'll be fun testing out the possible head of the next generation of swordswomen of the mist. Make sure to give me all you've got, otherwise I'll have to gut you." Hasaki said with a feral smile gracing her face. She loved a good kenjutsu fight and while she may have cut ties with her former group she still wanted to make sure it was in good hands. Both grabbed the handles of their respective blades as they waited for an unheard signal to begin the fight.
As one, both unsheathed their blades and lunged at the other. Their blades clashed in the middle of the clearing as both were even in terms of strength for a moment. Hasaki was impressed, not many could match her strength, and even Kishiko was weary of engaging her strength wise. Halibel on the other hand was amazed at her senpai's strength; she was having difficulty holding her back and would soon need to disengage. Hasaki decided to throw her weight around a bit and put a bit more oomph into her Kubikiribocho as she used her full strength to throw Halibel back. Halibel made sure to do a flip in midair in order to land better before immediately jumping to the side as Hasaki's blade gouged out a chunk of the earth where she had landed.
Halibel then moved forward quickly to try and hit Hasaki in her side. Hasaki used the broadside of her blade to block the stab and then as a ram to push Halibel back. Hasaki then went on the offensive and delivered a surprisingly fast horizontal swing that would have bisected Halibel if she hadn't of jumped backwards just enough to be out of range. Using Hasaki's momentary opening Halibel once more tried to deliver a stab that was narrowly avoided by Hasaki as she threw an elbow at Halibel, who used her palm to redirect it while moving away from the recovering Hasaki.
Hasaki, in another feat of strength, used the arm still holding Kubikiribocho to swing said blade at the preoccupied Halibel who immediately used her own blade to block it and was sent flying away. As she landed, Halibel realized she would get nowhere if she continued using straight kenjutsu. Deciding to show why she was so respected, she started pushing chakra into her blade, Tiburon (the sister blade to both Hiramekirei and Samehada). Halibel allowed the chakra to collect in her blades' hollow center before unleashing it in a swift slash that shot out towards Hasaki. Hasaki jumped out of the way as the chakra blast hit the ground she was previously standing on and exploded violently.
"Hmm, I've always wondered what that blade did. It's good to see it get an owner after so many years of being unusable." Hasaki said. It was not well known but Kiri's legendary blades would only work to their full potential with a wielder that the blade itself accepted. This was best shown with Kishiko's blade Samehada which would grow spikes on its' handle if anyone it did not favor tried to use it. With Tiburon, its' chakra attacks would backfire or simply not be possible for anyone (pretty much everyone until Halibel came along) who it did not accept.
Acknowledging what Hasaki said with a small nod, Halibel started to pour more chakra into her blade as she rushed forward while swinging her blade in a downward slash. Deciding to test out this rather mysterious blade, Hasaki swung her Kubikiribocho at Halibel in order to block her blade. When the two met, Tiburon bit deeply into Kubikiribocho much to the surprise of Hasaki (unknown to Hasaki this was another ability of Tiburon, to cut through damn near anything when filled with chakra). Capitalizing on her surprise, Halibel launched a quick kick that connected with Hasaki's midsection and sent her sliding backwards as Halibel herself unleashed another powerful chakra blast at her. Hasaki rolled to the side and using one handed seals for suiton: mizurappa (water trumpet) and unleashed a powerful stream of water from her mouth.
Halibel dodged and was readying another chakra blast when a thick mist suddenly started forming. Realizing that the suiton attack was merely setting up a source of water for the quick usage of Hasaki's signature technique, Halibel cursed her oversight. Her vision was now all but useless as she stood within the thick mist. She knew better than trying to launch her attacks randomly, the best she could do at the moment was wait for Hasaki to attack so she could launch a counter. 'I really need to work on a second chakra nature.' She lamented as she realized how much it would help to have something other than just a water nature at this point in time.
The seconds ticked by as she grew more and more tense. Suddenly she jumped forward while launching a chakra blast behind her as Hasaki appeared for a brief moment. The blast missed as Hasaki disappeared back into the mist as quickly as she appeared. 'Fuck! This isn't good. I need something to get rid of this mist… But what?' she desperately thought before once again jumping away from an appearing Hasaki (who once again disappeared into the mist near instantly). Halibel then had an idea on how to counter this; she jumped forward once more, closed her eyes and focused on the air currents around her. After several seconds of focusing she found herself able to discern the air currents circulating around her so that when Hasaki appeared, she could instantly respond.
Halibel stood perfectly still with her eyes closed as what felt like an eternity passed. Then, with a fluid movement she turned to the left and lunged forward, her blade going through the sternum of the in mid-swing Hasaki. Hasaki looked surprised for a moment before popping into a cloud of smoke as Halibel felt Kubikiribocho at her neck. The mist cleared showing Halibel still in her lunging position with Hasaki behind her with Kubikiribocho at her neck.
"Do you yield?" Hasaki asked.
"…I yield." Halibel said after a moment of thinking on her situation.
"You did well. I'm glad to see the seven swordswomen is in good hands." Hasaki said as she went back to her group and Halibel rejoined her own. Though Hasaki returned to compliments and jubilation, Halibel returned to tense silence as Tsukiumi went down to the clearing and stood at the ready with an open scroll in each hand. Kasumi then went down and stood opposite Tsukiumi as both repeated Hasaki and Halibels' waiting for an unheard signal.
*With Kasumi and Tsukiumi*
"I've heard many things about the infamous Copy Kunoichi Kasumi Hatake. Let us see how much of it was rumors."
"I'm sorry, did you say something?" Kasumi responded as she rubbed the back of her head. Tsukiumi merely face palmed and muttered a few curses about irritating legends. This moment of humor was quickly replaced with a serious air as both took ready stances and waited for the start of the match.
As with Hasaki and Halibel, both burst into action at the same time. Tsukiumi poured chakra into her scrolls and instantly a torrent of water exploded from both and within moments flooded the clearing. Kasumi decided against her frontal taijutsu attack as she saw the water flood the clearing. Instead she jumped backwards and waited to see what Tsukiumi would do next. Normally, Kasumi would have the advantage against suiton ninjutsu thanks to her raiton affinity. But Tsukiumi had unleashed enough water that it covered the entirety of the clearing, so any lightning attack she used had the potential to backfire and electrocute her as well (having landed in the water when she made a momentary retreat).
"Allow me to show you the power of Kirigakure." Tsukiumi said as she quickly did the handsigns for suiton: suiryuudan no jutsu (water dragon bullet). Kasumi noted that Tsukiumi only needed half of the handsigns needed for the technique, something that spoke greatly of her command over suiton manipulation. As Tsukiumi finished the handsigns, a massive dragon made from water emerged from behind her and uttered a massive roar as it went after Kasumi. Kasumi quickly started dodging and used her incredible speed to outmaneuver the massive water construct as she got closer to Tsukiumi. Getting within a dozen feet of Tsukiumi, Kasumi did the handsigns for katon: goukakyu no jutsu (great fireball technique) and unleashed a massive torrent of flames at Tsukiumi. This was countered by a wall of water created by a second Tsukiumi.
'When the hell did she manage to make a water clone?' Kasumi idly thought before jumping backwards as the water dragon crashed into where she once stood, becoming one with the water in the clearing.
"Do not underestimate my abilities Kasumi-san. I may not have your experience but my suiton manipulation is considered the best of my generation." Tsukiumi arrogantly said as both she and her clone smiled in pride.
"Oh? Congratulations. Next time I'll get you a fruit basket for having obtained such skill." Kasumi said with an eye smile as Tsukiumi got angry. "But for now, please make do with this." Kasumi said, both revealing her Sharingan and quickly making a shadow clone that immediately rushed Tsukiumi while the original stayed back and did the handsigns for suiton: hohanryu (tearing torrent). The rushing wave that came forth completely swallowed the advancing shadow clone as one of the Tsukiumi's immediately created a water wall while the other created another water dragon in order to get Kasumi. As the wave crashed against the water wall, obscuring the Tsukiumi's vision, the one controlling the dragon sent it towards Kasumi's last seen position.
Kasumi, having to stay in the same spot in order to use the jutsu, saw the water dragon coming and at the very last moment jumped out of the way. Unfortunately this was foiled by a third Tsukiumi appearing and hitting her with suiton: teppodama (liquid bullet). Much to Tsukiumi's surprise, this Kasumi exploded violently and obscured their vision for a moment. The real Kasumi (who had used a sealless replacement jutsu while jumping away) exploded out of the water in this moment of confusion as she finished the final handsign to katon: zukokku (intelligent hard work) and launched a small fireball at the dual Tsukiumi's. When the small fireball hit the water at their feet, it exploded in a powerful wave of fire that engulfed the area the Tsukiumi's were in. The second water clone instantly lost cohesion as its creator and fellow clone disappeared within the flames.
Tsukiumi reappeared a fair distance away from the blast, several burns on her arms and legs as her clothing had many large tears and holes in it, revealing her pearly white bra and panties in these new gaps (on the sidelines Naruto couldn't help but think this look was rather sexy as Kurama agreed with him). Before Tsukiumi could get her bearings again, Kasumi appeared before her and threw a powerful haymaker that connected with her face. The brain jarring blow was followed by several other punches to her stomach and face as Kasumi let her feel the ramifications of not developing one's taijutsu skills. After several minutes of receiving a beatdown from Kasumi, Tsukiumi fell to one knee, covered in bruises and spitting up a bit of blood.
"I think it's time I ended this. After all, the quicker I get home the quicker I can wine and dine Naruto-kun." Kasumi said while covering her Sharingan, the match already decided in her mind as she imagined taking Naruto out to eat and then going back to her place for dessert. This hubris would bite her on the ass in the next few moments as Tsukiumi used her lack of attention to finish the handsigns for raiton: jibashi (electromagnetic murder) and tackled Kasumi, electrocuting them both into unconsciousness helped in large part from the water surrounding them (Tsukiumi wasn't exactly skilled in raiton jutsu so she relied on the water surrounding them to hopefully amplify her last ditch attack enough to take them both out). After a few seconds both collapsed while Utakata and Naruto jumped downwards and checked to see just how badly they were hurt.
*Roughly twenty minutes later*
After treating the injuries of their comrades, proclaiming the match a tie and waiting for them to wake up, Naruto and Utakata now stood facing each other in the middle of the still flooded clearing (though now it was mostly absorbed into the ground so there was only around a foot of water depth). The silence coming from both sides was deafening as an incredibly tense and nervous atmosphere filled the air. Naruto's current fate hinged upon this fight and neither side was willing to back down.
"Will you not reconsider just giving up and coming with us Naruto-kun?" Utakata asked in a near pleading tone. She genuinely did not want to fight Naruto and even Saika, the six tailed slug sealed within her, was telling her not to fight him. Though Saika seemed rather nervous and wouldn't give reasons why she was so worried. In fact, Utakata could remember that even as far back as the Kiri civil war Saika told her to take great caution around Naruto. While his elemental abilities were great could that really be enough to unnerve and worry a bijuu?
"Unfortunately Uta-chan, I cannot return with you. I am a hired mercenary for Konoha after all. Besides, there are things I need to do there…" Naruto replied as he shifted into a ready stance for this upcoming bout.
"Very well. I'm sorry for this." Utakata said as she too readied herself for battle. Both stood still and gazed at each other with an incredible intensity. Utakata wouldn't say this aloud but she found herself becoming rather aroused from the intense gaze of Naruto and wondered if she had some kind of battle fetish.
Naruto made the first move as he suddenly stomped his right foot while, with his palms facing upwards, made a pushing motion towards the sky. From this motion dozens of stone spikes emerged from the ground and covered the entire clearing. Utakata, realizing how serious Naruto now was, used her incredible agility to maneuver around the nearest spikes before jumping into the air. As she was in the air, Utakata created a bubble large enough to cover herself and hold her in the air. She then used her bubble blower to create hundreds of smaller bubbles that stuck themselves to the stone spikes before simultaneously exploding.
As the massive explosion rocked the clearing, a fine cloud of dust obscured the vision of everyone watching. Utakata suddenly allowed the bubble she was floating in to pop as a large blast of lightning flew through where she was floating only a moment ago. As she fell, Utakata used her suiton: homatsu no jutsu (bubble technique) to send dozens of bubbles to cover the clearing. If Naruto so much as breathed on the surface he would be blown to bits. As she stood in the only area not covered in what was essentially bubble landmines she wondered how Naruto would deal with this.
After a few moments of waiting in the still somewhat obscured clearing, a rumbling could be felt coming from beneath Utakata's feet. The rumbling grew louder and louder until it was an all encompassing roar that set Saika on edge as Utakata sensed something strange from beneath her feet. As she wondered on what was happening, she obeyed her sixth sense that told her to move as a large hand emerged from beneath her and nearly crushed her in its grasp. As she created another bubble to hold her aloft she witnessed something incredible; from the earth emerged the fully formed upper half of what appeared to be a humanoid figure. Except this figure was, from waste to the top of its head, at least twenty five feet tall (basically the upper half of Malus from Shadow of the Colossus, although this Malus is much much smaller… for now…). As the figured emerged, Utakata's bubble mines went off from being moved but much to her amazement, they seemed to do nothing against this colossus. As her concentration slipped, the bubbles that weren't touched or moved somehow, popped and the clearing was now free of her bubbles.
"GET THE FUCK AWAY FROM THAT!" Saika yelled frantically in Utakata's mind as she obeyed and went to the farthest corner of the clearing in order to have the most space between herself and this strange golem-thing. As she stared at it, Naruto emerged from the top of its head, well the upper half of Naruto, with his hands in the tiger handsign.
"Do not hold back Utakata. This is one of my strongest techniques and it will require your best if you even want to scratch it." Naruto replied in an austere tone as his eyes no longer held warmth but were instead filled with a ruthlessness she had only seen in them during the fiercest of battles in the Kiri civil war.
'What the hell is that?'
"One of the sixteen guardians… Malus…" Saika replied in a trembling whisper. As Utakata was about to angrily tell her to stop being cryptic, she found herself being pulled into her own mind.
*Utakata's mindscape*
"Why'd you pull me in here Saika?" Utakata asked as she found herself in the massive cave that served as Saika's space within her mind.
"You need to go all out the moment you get back outside. Use at least three tails of my chakra." The giant six tailed slug said as it appeared before Utakata.
"Sure, it seems like a powerful technique but to use your chakra against Naruto-kun… Isn't that a bit much?"
"Fool! That technique is basically the partial revival of ancient beings that once guarded the original source of chakra, the God Tree... The sixteen guardians, created by the God tree itself, existed for untold amounts of time and kept anyone from devouring the fruit of the God Tree before Kaguya Otsutsuki slew them all in order to eat said fruit. I would have told you to give up right now if Naruto had fully revived any of the guardians."
"Wait, isn't she the mother of the Sage of Six Paths that you told me about before? And if they're so damned strong how were they defeated?" Utakata and her bijuu Saika were very close and prior to this Saika had begun telling Utakata of her origins. Utakata had never shared this since the stigma of being a jinchuuriki (especially during and after Yashira's insane reign) made mentioning her tenant rather awkward and a little taboo amongst anyone that she was not incredibly close to.
"The very same. She was a warrior of skill beyond what most could even fathom even before she gained the use of chakra. For how she defeated them, that little secret has long been lost. I thought that the sands of time had worn away all knowledge of these beings for anyone but ancients like my siblings and I. For Naruto to have found the guardians and a way to resurrect them, even if only during a battle… Could he possibly have…?" Saika started off before speaking her thoughts aloud as she felt that Naruto was much more than meets the eye.
"Saika, allow me full use of your chakra during this fight. If what you say is even remotely true then I will need it." Utakata said as she thought deeply upon the information Saika had given her. It seems that Naruto had been holding back even more information on himself than was originally thought. 'I feel a bit arrogant remembering how easily I thought I would win. Heh, Naruto-kun you really are one of a kind.'
Utakata felt herself being thrown out of her mind after getting a nod from the worried Saika.
*Back in reality*
As she found herself once again facing Naruto and this so-called Malus, Utakata realized that less than a second had gone by. Before being able to muse on this she was immediately filled with an immense feeling of power as three chakra tails sprouted from her. A feeling of maliciousness filled the air as the foul chakra of Saika was felt by all. But, as this feeling was becoming overwhelming, a strange calmness descended upon everyone as Naruto exerted the power of Malus over the surrounding area. Feeling Saika tremble at this, Utakata decided to go on the offensive.
Utakata bounded forward and tried a superpowered punch towards the midsection of the giant beast, seemingly being too fast for it to react. As she was less than a foot away from delivering her fearsome blow, she felt herself get smacked away by the right hand of the beast. The power of the blow was so great it sent her flying through half a dozen trees before being able to stop by using her tails as anchors, digging deeply into the ground. If it weren't for the regenerative and the protective powers of her cloak, Utakata knew she would be nothing more than a stain on the forest floor…
'What crazy power! How did it even react that fast?'
"Like I said, throw everything you have at it! Or give up. Honestly, unless you give me full control and transform into my form you don't really have much of a chance..."
'If I did that, there would be a good chance you'd accidentally kill everyone nearby. Guess I'll go up to four tails and take it from there.' Utakata thought back as a fourth chakra tail formed behind her and she felt the surge of power. She also felt her grasp over her emotions loosening a bit due to the nature of the chakra but for now she could still fight without going berserk. After taking one last deep breath, Utakata sped forward once again.
As she reached Malus, Utakata was just barely able to dodge under one of its arms before delivering a brutal claw strike at its chest, managing to leave an inch deep gash on the beasts' stone armor. Before she could do a follow up blow, Utakata jumped away as Malus nearly grabbed her but she was a second too late as one of her tails had been grabbed. Deciding to test something out, Utakata used her leech gap ability to secret an ultra-powerful acid that immediately started to burn Malus' hand. Roaring in pain and anger, Malus threw Utakata away as she did a flip in midair and landed gracefully several dozen feet away.
Malus raised its right hand and aimed its palm at Utakata and a bright glow started to come from the bracelets on its wrists (the bracelets located on its left bicep also started to glow brightly).
"GET THE FUCK AWAY!" Was Saika's terrified yell, coming a moment too late as a ball of energy was fired from the right palm of Malus. The ball of energy struck the ground in front of Utakata and exploded powerfully but the radius of the blast confined itself to within around a ten feet radius from impact, preventing too much collateral damage. As she flew backwards Utakata felt Saika's chakra flooding through her towards where the blast hit, almost as if the energy ball was absorbing the chakra itself to further fuel its own explosion. Utakata felt herself crash through at least two dozen trees before finally stopping and falling to the ground. Her chakra cloak gone as a huge amount of Saika's chakra was torn away from her. As Utakata felt her consciousness leaving her, she gave one last look at Malus as its eerily glowing eyes burned itself into her mind for eternity.
*Away from the clearing, an hour later*
Utakata felt herself regaining consciousness as she stared at a clear blue sky. She then felt pain everywhere on her body since even with the high regenerative properties of being a jinchuuriki, she was still rather banged up from her recent bout.
"Ugh, where am I?" she groaned out as she realized she was lying atop a makeshift bed and that she was covered in bandages.
"You were quite hurt after your match taicho (captain), so we moved you here so you could recover. Everyone else is currently waiting for you to wake up so that we can conclude this wager of yours." Tsukiumi said with a hint of sadness in her voice as the reality of their failed mission started kicking in. Nodding grimly, Utakata got up slowly and walked towards where everyone else was congregated.
"Uta-chan, I'm glad to see you awake. I may have overdone it a bit in our match. So I apologize." Naruto said as Utakata reached them. He then bowed for a few moments as he felt a bit embarrassed. He had lost himself a bit in the match and it wasn't until it was over that he realized he could have been a bit less brutal towards his friend.
"Don't worry about it Naruto-kun. Now I do believe you won our wager. As such we will retreat for now. But do not think Kiri will give up on you." Utakata said as she grabbed Naruto and raised his head before embracing him fiercely, making sure to bury his head in her bust as she moved her hands all over his frame.
"""What the fuck are you doing!?""" Was the combined yell of all the kunoichi present as Haku and Sai reacted the fastest (due to being the closest) by grabbing Naruto and ripping him away from Utakata. As the two gave Utakata the 'evil eye', they themselves started to feel up Naruto.
"Keep your hands of Naruto-sama." Haku said scathingly while she started to stick her hands underneath Naruto's clothes as he himself was busy keeping Sai from grabbing his dick.
"Stop. Both of you." Naruto said with a tired tone as he placed a light chop on both Sai and Haku's heads in the hopes that this light corporal punishment got through to them. Surprisingly, it did as they both let go of him and meekly lowered their heads. "Utakata, please tell Mei-chan that if she wishes to see me, then the upcoming Chunin exams would be a good time to visit Konoha." Naruto said as a warm smile found itself on his face. He would like to see his old comrade again and finally properly introduce himself.
"Sure. We will see you again Naruto-kun. Until then, you better not forget me." Utakata said with a seductive smile as she and her team started to leave. Halibel said goodbye to her senpai and Tsukiumi made sure to tell Kasumi that she would get a rematch whenever they met again (Kasumi of course responded by pretending not to listen and asking her to repeat herself). As the trio of Kiri kunoichi vanished into the distance, Naruto felt very powerful stares being directed at him. As he turned around he found the very curious stares of his traveling companions.
"So, you gonna explain or are we going to have to get creative in getting the information from you Naru-kun?" Hasaki said with a sickeningly sweet tone of voice as Naruto felt a cold bit of sweat drip down his face as he realized that he was now surrounded…
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
A/N A few things; first when I mentioned Halibels sword being the sister sword to Samehada and Hiramekirei my reasoning went like this:
1. Tiburon in this story basically allows for long range attacks using chakra blasts and for its cutting abilities to be amplified with chakra to insane amounts.
2. Because of these chakra abilities, its a bit like Hiramekirei so the two became two sides of the same coin of chakra manipulation with Samehada being used to gather chakra in order to keep both blades going. Thus the three became a trio that when used together are absolute monsters on the battlefield.
3. So with this in mind I made up the backstory of the three being sister blades because in my mind it made a lot of sense.
Now, as to the Shadow of the Colossus colossi being used, I will go into how Naruto discovered them and revived them later on. But they will basically become his summons in this story. He won't use them a lot because they take a shit ton out of him to fully revive (this partial revival of Malus was very stressful on him as it is).
Sidenote: Shadow of the Colossus if fucking amazing.
If you have questions that NEED to be answered, feel free to pm me. I'll answer as quick as I can.
And for those of you who guessed Tia Halibel from Bleach and Tsukiumi from Sekirei, congrats on your cyber cookie. You earned it.
