ICE RANGER:- What the hell
NARUTO:- you , how dare you!
ICE RANGER:- What are you talking about?
NARUTO:- I'm talking about you making me eat dango instead of ramen. I mean cola goes better with ramen, right?
ICE RANGER:- Ugh, who told you that?
NARUTO:- I don't care just give me some ramen
ICE RANGER:- Fine, there are a few cups of ramen in the kitchen cupboard.
NARUTO:- Ramen, Ramen,Ramen'(he says as he runs to the kitchen)
ICE RANGER:- (walking away then stops) shit I forgot we are out of ramen( he calls out to naruto).
NARUTO:- Ice ranger when I catch you, you will be in one hell of an ice danger( chases ice ranger)
ICE RANGER:- (Running) I do not own naruto maybe until I buy him some ramen and maybe kill kishimoto.
CHAPTER SEVEN:- THE UNKNOWN MISSING NIN
START
'The konoha shinobis had safely gotten back to konoha after they had rescued gaara who was brought back to life by chiyo who did a kinjutsu that brought him back to life, exchanging her life for his. The three teams were now standing before tsunade giving their report.
"So you managed to kill two akatsuki members and one escaped" tsunade escaped.
"Yes, hokage-sama" replied kakashi who was the leader of the group.
"So what is the name of this said criminal and what do you know about him"? Tsunade asked.
"he said his name was daisuke though we don't know where he's from" kureani replied. Tsunade brought out a book and stated flipping through it.
"can you describe him"? tsunade asked.
"he has blonde hair with blue eyes, has a thing for drinking cola and might be a fire elemental user, That's all we know". Hinata said
Tsunade continued flipping through the pages of the book which confused the ninjas.
"uh hokage-sama I don't mean to be rude but what are you doing?" Shikamaru asked voicing out everyone's thoughts.
" I'm looking for this daisuke of a person in the bingo book".
"uh why" asuma asked.
"Because everyone in the akatsuki is in the bingo book except for their leader who we just know is called pain, nothing else. It's like a tradition, you can't join akatsuki if you just want to join unless they recongise your talent and have a need for you or you did something to make you an s- rank criminal". Tsunade had that time had finished going through the book. "He's not in here so that means he joined by option A that means he is dangerous"
"but he ought to have come from a village even if it is not part of the five great one at least one that is a shinobi one for him to have gotten shinobi training". Shino said.
"nope, not in here" tsunade replied
shikamaru then looked at hinata who looked like she was in deep thought. "hinata, why weren't you able to spot daisuke when he moved".
Hinata then looked at shikamaru 'I think daisuke is like kureani sensei only better. I think he is a genjutsu master'.
Tsunade looked at hinata as she remembered a visit she had from jiraiya earlier that day.
FLASHBACK
Tsunade was growling angrily as she signed of another one of the demonic papers on her table that didn't seem to decrease.
'god help us if papers should suddenly develop legs and instincts of war' she thought.
She was broken out of thought s by the opening of the a window and she turned towards the sound to see jiraiya coming in.
"hey hime did you miss me"? jiraiya asked while spreaping his arms out for a hug, but too bad tsunade was in a bad mood from the paper work and also knew he was going to grope her too and he turned out to be what tsunade needed. A frustration relief dummy as tsunade gave him a knuckle punch to the head sending him out through the window to the hot springs. Anyone who listened well who have heard jiraiya cries of pain as he had landed in the female side.
She looked as jiraiya came back through the same window,
"is that the kind of welcome I get"? he asked the slug princess though not expecting an answer.
"why are you here jiraiya"?, tsunade asked.
"why, can't I visit anymore" jiraiya asked back.
"you stopped coming to konoha two and a half years ago when na.. the brat went missing, so why are you here".
Jiraiya sighed as he stared at the door of the hokage's office ever since naruto disappeared it hit tssunade hard and whenever she heard his name always made her sad so she refrained from saying his name and instead called him brat.
"I come with bad news tsunade", jiraiya said.
"what is it, is there going to be another invasion, damn I should have known when I won the last lottery". Tsunade said with her hands on her head.
"no tsunade there is going to be no invasion, it's just that I remembered that I could have the toads reverse summon naruto back from where ever he is".
Tsunade looked at jiraiya with wide eyes and would have broken his skull for not remembering earlier but didn't because of the good news.
"that is good news, isn't it"? tsunade asked.
"that's the problem, when I checked the summoners scroll naruto's name was written in red".
" so whats the problem"? tsunade asked.
" when a summoners name is written in red that means that the person is dead or has terminated his contract and since naruto doesn't know how to terminate a summon contract we believe he is dead", jiraiya said with heavy heart.
FLASHBACK END
"you guys I have bad news, jiraiya dropped by earlier this morning to give me a very bad news" tsunade said.
"there's no more sake available in konoha and the neighbouring villages" damn my bad luck horoscope just had to be right" kakashi said as he started sweating grievously.
"no that isn't it and why do you need a bad luck horoscope, what is even a bad luck horoscope"?. Tsunade replied back in confusion.
"don't worry tsunade sama" kakshi said relief evident on his face as he had wanted to go soak himself in sake after the mission they just had and maybe see if he could hit a girl for the night".
" naruto uzumaki is dead" tsunade said as she heard two gasps.
"WHAT" kiba shouted.
"jiraiya came in this morning to tell me that he could have reversed summoned naruto but his name was written in red signifying that either he was dead or he terminated the contract and seeing he doesn't know how to do it he assumed the other option".
Hinata broke down into tears as she opened the door and ran out.
"damn greater bad luck horoscope" kakashi swore.
"you have two of them" kureani asked.
"what did the first say" asuma asked.
"there will be sake shortage for the next three days in your village and neighbouring villages" kakashi answered.
"and the other" kiba said as the others looked at him.
"you will receive a tragic news today". Kakashi finished.
Tsunade exhaled and pressed down a button on her desk,
"shizune please bring four bottles of sake" she said as she removed her finger from the button after she was done.
Shizune stepped in and fidgeted as she looked at tsunade,
"tsunade sama the brewery stopped producing sake as of yesterday as they didn''t have enough workers to keep up with the high constant demand for sake from konoha so there is no sake in konoha or its neighbouring village". Shizune said.
In the distant everyone could hear a thundering N-NOOOOOOO!.
UNKNOWN PLACE
Daisuke sat on a rock in the main akatsuki hideout devouring his seventh bowl of ramen as other bowls yet to be eaten were by his side waiting for their destined demise( son of a bitch stole my wallet). Hey narutoheard as he looked up to see deidara, sasori and konan approaching him. Deidara had his full attention into a book which he recongised as icha icha, konan was scrowling at him because of his shameless attitude and sasori was… just sasori.
Naruto stood up to meet them finishing his last bowl " hey guys successful mission or what".
Deidara did not say anything but brought his face closer to his book making konan scrowl enlarge. Sasori looked at naruto as he said
"I didn't get enough time to make them appreciate my art ", he said with a frown
Naruto looked at them as he remembered when he joined the akatsuki.
FLASH BACK
Naruto walked through the forest of lightening country, he saw a man standing in the way who when he looked closer recongised as itachi. Naruto stopped walking as he looked at itachi the two of them seemed to be locked in somekind of staring contest. Itachi then blinked and looked at naruto
"uzumaki naruto, I see you left konoha too just like my stupid little brother"
Naruto with a frown replied "don't compare me to sasuke, now what do you want?".
Itachi then took a step forward and answered ' I come with an invitation from akatsuki we're recruiting new members, would you like to join?'.
Naruto raised an eye brow up at the strange request " what's in it for me?". He asked.
TIME SKIP
A man with orange spiky hair and purple eyes that had several concentric circles with piercings on his face looked at naruto who stood before him and the other members except kankuzu who wasn't there.
"so naruto uzumaki, jinchuriki of the kyuubi no kitsune and ex ninja of konoha what makes you think you are fit to join us?".
Naruto then replied "itachi wouldn't have come for me if he knew I wasn't good enough".
"what are your reasons for joining us?". Pein asked.
"well itachi said you guys spent the last few years gathering funds and you take care of your members so long they swear loyalty to you, right?".
"yes, that is true".
"well I will join your cause as long you take care of my feeding expenses".
Itachi who was behind pein wided his eyes at the request as he thought, damn I give our treasury a few weeks and we are going bankrupt. After all itachi knew about naruto legendary appitites as he had treated naruto a few times to ramen when he was still in konoha and let's just say he went home a broken man.
"DEAL" itachi was broken out of his thoughts as he watched pein shake naruto's hand sealing the deal, damn kankuzu will be mad.
"Now we will taste your abilities". Pein told him.
FLASH BACK END
Since then let's just say pein never wanted another member, least they turn out to be like naruto. Kankuzu too didn't like naruto because he wasted precious money on soggy noodles.
Naruto looked at deidara as he continued to read his book. Naruto ripped the book out of his hands and looked at it flipping through pages. Konan thinking he was another pervert growled at him.
"HEY, my book". Deidara yelled at naruto.
Naruto finishing the last page closed it and kicked deidara in what defines him as a man. Deidara let out a girlish scream as he crumbled to the ground
"YOU PERVERT, I HATE PERVERTS" he yelled at him and tossed the book at deidara who had anime tears pouring out of his eyes. Naruto then turned and left.
"Finally a male who isn't a pervert around here" konan sighed in relief.
"Am not a pervert" sasori said.
"ye, that because I think you're gay" konan replied.
WHAT!
"was I lying?". Konan asked as she turned to face sasori.
"yes I am not gay", sasori relied pointing his finger at her.
"well that's none of my concern, I was on my way to tell naruto the only none pervert in our group about his new mission until I saw you guys".
"what about pein, is he a pervert', sasori asked. Konan said nothing as she started walking away. She had a suspicion that pein was a pervert as she normally heard tendo pein reading something to nagato in his office and heard perverted giggles later. What she never knew was that naruto used his sharingan to memorise the book as he flipped through the pages. Of course she never knew he had it.
OROCHIMARU HIDEOUT
Orochimaru and kabuto overlooked sasuke training from a verandah as they watched as sasuke tear through an army of sound nins as he channeled lightening chakra through his ninjato.
"orochimaru-sama do you think sasuke is ready, it's will soon be time for you to change bodies and he is still yet to unlock the mangekoy sharingan and you know you can't achieve your dream without it". He said as he looked at orochimaru who had a devious smirk.
"I still have four months till it's time for the transfer ritual, I'll think of something". Orochimaru replied. They turned just in time to see sasuke finish the last nin. They started walking towards sasuke who turned to look at them,
"he he sasuke kun you look stronger than you were three years ago".
Sasuke didn't say anything as he clenched his fists and looked at them, 'I feel stronger though not sure if strong enough to kill him I need more power, he thought'.
"I will be in my room if you need me" and with that sasuke walked away.
"orochimaru sama don't you think sasuke can betray you", kabuto asked.
"no, sasuke can't if he does I will just put him on a leash like the pet he is".
'hm orochimaru sama is been to proud underestimating sasuke's abilities, I better have an ace in case things get ugly' he thought as he stared at orochimaru's retreating form.
AKATSUKI HIDEOUT
"Naruto-san!"
Naruto turned to see konan walking to catch up with him.
"yes, what is it konan chan" naruto asked konan who had already caught up with him,
"pain sama wants to entrust an important mission to you" Konan replied.
"and what will this mission be"? Naruto asked.
Konan looked at Naruto as she held out a scroll.
UNKNOWN LOCATION
Naruto walked into a room as he watched kankuzu count bills of ryo, an open briefcase half filled with money the other half on the table in front of him.
"yo Kankuzu" Naruto said with a smile.
Kankuzu looked up to see naruto as a frown, "what do you want brat" though already knowing what Naruto wanted.
"you know the usual". Kankuzu then grumbled and tossed Naruto a few bills. Naruto counted them and frowned,
"this isn't enough and you know that" naruto said to kankuzu who didn't reply but continued counting his money.
"I took up the issue with pein sama and he decided that you only get two bowls of ramen a day", Kankuzu finally replied a few seconds later.
Naruto then frowned, "fine I can't go to the stand with this amount so I will just order"(I am going to make naruto universe improved in technology so there will be telephones though the old kinds) and with that he left.
TIME SKIP
Kankuzu walked through the akatsuki hideout as he walked towards pein's office. He stopped when he saw Konan walking towards him with a sheet of paper that had a few words and numbers written on them with a look that said OMG.
Konan stopped in front of him and handed him the paper. Kankuzu glanced at it and gained an horrified look as if he had been told that banks and bounty offices were being closed.
"WHATT…..!
AKATSUKI MEETING ROOM
Naruto looked up as he saw Kankuzu come in with enough killer intent that would make hatake kakashi wet his pants.
"you, how dare you" Kankuzu growled at Naruto who was eating ramen out of a large bowl that looked big enough to contain ten medium sized bowls of ramen and a pack of canned cola by his side.
"what are you talking about", naruto asked clearly confused.
Kankuzu showed him the paper which turned out to be a bill "two thousand ryo, I told you to order just two bowls but you ordered… I don't know how many but I know it isn't two".
Naruto gained a look of realization on his face "oh that I did order two, you didn't just specify the bowl size so ordered two extra large bowls and a pack of cola which you didn't tell me that I couldn't order".
"don't you try to play smart with me" Kankuzu growled in anger.
"oh, I aren't trying to play smart with you, I am already smarter than you frankiestein" naruto retorted.
"I'll kill you" Kankuzu said as he unleashed his masks and ran forward to attack Naruto.
"STOP" A thunderous voice sounded causing Kankuzu to stop in his tracks
"Pain sama" Kankuzu greeted as he spotted the other akatsuki members coming into the room.
"I will not condor any fighting in here" Pain said as he came out of the shadows.
"My apologies pain sama, it won't happen again" Kankuzu said. Naruto didn't say anything as he finished the last of his ramen.
"Now for important matters, pain started, Kisame, you and itachi are in charge of capturing the nanabi, hidan and kankuzu you guys are in charge of the nibi, Sasori, Deidara you are to capture the rokubi , naruto you know-
Pssst, the hissing sound of something opening interrupted him. The members looked towards the origin of the sound and found naruto drinking one of his cola. Naruto stopped drinking when he noticed everyone was staring at him,
"What, I was thirsty" he said as everyone including pain sweatdropped.
