Okay! Next chapter coming up!.. But first I'll be answering some questions and also saying a couple things
First thing: My friend asked me if I had planned on continuing my other story, Kage Warriors, and my only answer to that is.. YES but I will most likely not be continuing it until a certain point of my Kuro Hebi story has been completed, So hang in there Kage Warrior Lovers! I'll update soon!
Second: Now some of you were, well ONE person was, confused about the whole "Oroti giving birth if Oroti was supposedly a Male Orochimaru" this will be explained in this chapter. So just watch and wait.
Third: Many of you during one of my "prime chapters" as I call them, were baffled at my O or A vote. That will be explained, most likely, in this chapter as well but neither of them were to go to either side, I had already planned out where Kuro is going I just wanted to know which way to portray it. O did NOT equal her going to Orochimaru, she was going to go either way. A did not mean she was joining Akatsuki, weather or not she will has yet to be told and so you'll only know when it happens. A won so I am going with the idea I planned out for that.
Lastly: The votes on my recent poll are going well, I have decided to put a poll in my Profile for people to vote on, So far the votes are as followed.
Mother Nature : 2
Blade : 0
Cloak: 1 – I voted myself.. I think I would greatly enjoy writing this story so I wanted to throw my two cents in..
Anyways! On with the story
"What do you have to say to the individuals who have intentionally misinterpreted or MISCOMMUNICATED your message, and to those who have blatantly lied, cheated, or stolen directly from you?"
Fuck 'em
Can't stop me think I'm messing
around
You think I'm messin around
Well are you messin around
with me
Truth is I've seen the ups and the downs
And through
the losses and the founds
Well I'm right where I wanna be
Stop
thinking everybody's shakin
You never get a break you're never
gonna go
Stop thinking everybody's shakin
I never gotta break
but
I survive
You can try but you can't deny me
I
survive
Like a lie that just won't die
I survive!!!
Survive- Dope
Hours later Jiraiya awoke to find his sensei staring down at him with a knowing smile. Jiraiya coughed and quickly got up from the couch that he was laying on, he dimly noted his surroundings as his Shinobi instincts kicked in and found that he was still in the Hokage's room. When did the Old Man get a couch in here?
Dismissing the matter quickly he looked up at his sensei. "How..? How was Orochimaru able to do such a thing.. and better yet.. How the hell was he female? And an Uzumaki!" He said quickly, jumbling his questions together a little but Sarutobi understood him easily.
"Ill answer in order.. Jiraiya.." Sarutobi picked up his pipe and took a large inhale, calming his nerves. "Orochimaru said that he developed the Jutsu to allow him to travel through other dimensions and times until he arrived at his target, I'm not sure about much more then that." He let out a large sigh then continued.
"When I had gotten to the room I saw Oroti, or rather Kushina, peeling away her skin to show her white face and yellow eyes. I could never forget that face, even though it was shaped into a heart and the eye lashes were thicker.. I could never forget that face just like I could never forget that night." He slowly slid into his chair, speaking once more.
---- Flash Back---
Sarutobi stormed down the halls quickly, intent on telling the Fourths wife quickly about his death, and the sealing that had happened. His Hokage cloak swished wildly behind him, sending a storm of paper and civilian workers everywhere. He dimly noted that he would have to spend a lot of time doing paper work because of that.
He slid the door open, making sure to be quiet in case the girl was asleep, but then his eyes widened in shock and surprise as he stared at the now white skinned female in front of him. She was looking at him with saddening eyes, yellow eyes.
"Orochimaru!?" He yelled out, or at least he had though he did, as he looked back he could remember his 'yell' being nothing but a harsh whisper.
She smiled lightly at him, a thin smile that didn't quite reach her eyes. "Ohyio, Sarutobi-sensei." She said slowly, picking off the last bit of skin that was hanging off her face. "How are you doing this fine day.." She muttered softly, her voice laced with sarcasm.
Sarutobi gulped and walked forward. "What are you doing in Kushina's bed!?"
Orochimaru, or Kushina as it seemed, sighed dramatically which only further added to Sarutobi's realization that this was indeed Orochimaru, his old student had always sighed like that when he was disappointed. Orochimaru looked up at him and said her words slowly, as if talking to a toddler. "I AM Kushina, Sarutobi-Sensei.."
Sarutobi flinched back in shock, even though he had figured out as much. "How..?" He managed to croak out.
She sighed once more. "All those years ago, when I had used my first 'Forbidden Jutsu', I was warped into the future and my atoms merged with a new born babe, Kushina Uzumaki was my true name but I had preferred to be called Oroti Uzumaki and so my real name became Oroti Kushina Uzumaki, which later changed into Namikaze." She added the last part with love laced into her voice, but also a slight irritation, then she continued.
"I grew up knowing exactly who and what I was, but not knowing what became of me after that moment except that I became Kushina, until I had become a Jounin and fallen in love with Minato.. He was such a wonderful man and my female hormones just went wild around him. I may have been a man Sarutobi-sensei but my mind had adapted to this female body.. I do hope that he is okay and didn't act too rationally." She muttered under her breath, loud enough for Sarutobi to hear.
He gulped and sighed. "Minato is dead." She stared at him with wide fearful eyes, near breaking down. Sarutobi gulped once more then sighed again. "He died sealing the Kyuubi into his child.. Your child." He said, watching as he past student let out choked sobs.
"I'm such a fool.. I should have gone after him and told him not to do it.." She started talking so low that Sarutobi couldn't hear what she was saying.
"Now now, Oroch- Er.. Oroti, you still have your child. What will you name her?" He said softly, glancing over towards the small baby crib that was seated in the other side of the room which held the small babe that had the Kyuubi sealed inside of her.
Oroti looked over towards the baby and smiled slowly. "Kuro Hebi..." She said slowly.
Sarutobi smiled, and spent the rest of the night talking with his prized student, the sane version at least.
And then, it all changed the next day.
Orochimaru, the evil one, had decided to leave the village but before he did he took someone with him in order to test his new Jutsu, and who was not better to take except the Wife of the man who took his position as Hokage?
Little did he know that as soon as he used that Jutsu on his Sane half, he split into two different personalities that would effect him greatly over the years, and he would never know of the child he once had, or the fact that his "Special person" that he constantly thought of was none other then the one person he hated more then anything, even his old Sensei. Minato Namikaze.
---Flash Back End--
Jiraiya sat back on the couch, stunned and dazed at all the new information. His old best friend had never truly betrayed him, but rather a twisted version of that person had. Then again, that also meant he had been spying and sneaking peeks during his "research time" of his old teammate. He shivered at the thought but his excuse to this was : Well.. She had big breasts!
Sarutobi puffed his pipe slowly, letting Jiraiya digest this information before sighing slowly. "I don't know what happened after that to Oroti or if Orochimaru was even aware Oroti was his other dimension self."
Jiraiya sighed and nodded slowly. "I understand, do you think Minato knew?" Jiraiya asked and Sarutobi nodded.
"Oroti seemed completely sincere about the love she had for Minato, and Orochimaru was never one to keep such dark secrets until the day he bloomed into insanity." Sarutobi said lightly.
Jiraiya nodded and got up, then spun and walked out the door, but was stopped by Sarutobi's voice.
"Jiraiya."
"Yeah Sensei?" Jiraiya said, not looking back.
"If you cross Tsunade, please try to get her to come back.. We need a strong Hokage.. I am much too old for this." He said, his words flowing with grief and disparate longing to get away from the Hokage seat.
Jiraiya stood in his spot for several moments then nodded. "Alright, I'll ask if I see her but don't expect me to try to reason with her too much."
And with that he left.
Several hundred miles away from the leaf village, a man was screaming in agony as he felt his body twitching and heating up in random spikes. He growled loudly as his five helpers stared at him with worry. Well four did, the other one didn't seem to give a damn except the annoyance she felt at his screaming.
"Orochimaru-Sama, are you okay?" A silver haired teen asked, his palm resting on Orochimaru's shoulder.
Orochimaru growled at Kabuto, his yellow gaze making the boy almost freeze up, almost. "Do I look okay Kabuto!? That old man did something to me.. But we must hurry on to the base before we check it out." He explained as Kabuto had attempted to gather chakra into one of his "healing palms".
They treaded a little longer before reaching the village gates. It was a small village that was actually hidden, unlike the other ones that were basically hidden in plain sight.
'This is why I constantly wonder why they were called Hidden Villages if one could find them by simply glancing at a map' Mused Orochimaru silently.
They walked down a long set of stairs after walking through the village itself. The village was, as said before, very small with little civilians other than Shinobi who were too injured or old to fight anymore. That didn't mean they didn't help with the younger Shinobi, for most of them gave pointers to the new ones and helped make money the best they could.
They walked into a large room that was the beginning of the large maze of Orochimaru's underground base. Orochimaru's pained face lit up into a large smile as he looked upon the new people standing in his base. Each one was wearing set clothing that he had in store for them.
The black haired girl was wearing a pair of shorts that went down to her knees, separating two inches above the knee into a fishnet pattern and turning back into the black leather around her upper thigh. She was wearing a loose Kunochi top that also had fishnets that went down to her elbows, along with a pair of Shinobi sandals that had metal placed on the bottom to give even extra impact. Her Kunai pouch was placed neatly on her right side.
The Pineapple haired boy was wearing the same type of outfit, but his pants didn't have any fishnet and they went down to his ankles, he was also wearing a tan Nara jacket that Orochimaru was sure he brought with him considering he did not have any of those.
The fat Akimichi was wearing one of his more .. comfortable battle suits. The whole thing was connected together, having long sleeves that went to the boy's wrists and draped over his hands slightly. The bottom half slid down his legs and draped over his feet. The whole thing was a swirl of white and purple in random places. The best thing about this was that it was enhanced with Jutsus and a chain mail shirt that was sewed inside of it. The thing could stretch and expand easily as well as absorb impact better then most, it was perfect for the Akimichi.
The Hyuuga girl was wearing a long trench coat that went to her knees, a fishnet shirt under it showing the sides of her large breasts and long boots were also apart of her attire. She reminded him of Anko, except for those lavender eyes that were looking at him hotly as if asking "Stop staring, or I'll make you stop." The girl also had on special gloves that he recognized as one of the Hyuuga's most secret weapons – those gloves were able to transmit chakra swiftly into the palm of the user causing devastating damage, the only reason it wasn't used was because it was too dangerous to use on field, due to the large amount of chakra being released which might cause a large explosion if it were to hit the wrong target.
The bowl cut haired boy, which he could not remember, was wearing long black pants with weights etched into every thread, normally this would cause even one of his more large Shinobi to buckle for awhile but this boy seemed completely relaxed, as if the weight became apart of him the instant he put the pants on. He was wearing a short version of his traditional robe, the bottom half being slitted open and each side resting on one of his legs while the top part was cut in a V shape just under his neck, showing his mussels that had developed over his intense training with Gai.
The three sand siblings were in their own clothing of choice, which they had all picked out before the invasion begun but wanted to make sure their new clothes were still intact in case something were to go wrong. (They're in the same clothes they were after the Sand/Sound invasion Arc, you know the clothes they were when they rescue Kiba, Shika, and Lee?)
Lastly the Uchiha had on one of his robes that were made just like the one the other black haired boy was wearing and he had Jounin type pants under it which slid down to his feet easily.
But the most noticeable thing about each and every one of these Shinobi was the Slash that was across each of their headbands. He mentally chuckled and then opened his arms, as if to hug all of them. (And where as he had not noticed, all of them [even Gaara] took a step back)
"Ah! My new Ninja! Kuro-Chan Kuro-chan! You brought so many friends! Kukuku.." He said sweetly, staring at his new students.
Kuro smiled back at him and bowed, which the others also did (though Gaara's was basically a stiff nod).
"Hai, but we're home aren't we..?" She looked up at him, a light shining in her eyes that one could call a great respect, others could call it spite. "Orochimaru-Sama."
---Time Skip--- Five months later.
Kuro panted heavily, sweat falling down her face quickly as she stared at her red eyed opponent.
"SASUKE!" She shrieked, and rushed towards him, water pounding down behind them in a rapid fall of water.
"KURO!" He yelled back, running at her just as fast with a Chidori beginning to shape into his hand.
Kuro made a Rasengan morph into her hand and they slammed their moves together, causing a huge shock wave of chakra and power to pulse through the entire valley that they fought in. Lightning surged through the waters but then red eyes widened as he heard "Wind style! Air pocket!" from his opponent through the torrent of waves.
He jumped back quickly just to avoid a large suction of air that pulled itself together in the spot he was in, then imploded on itself. He sighed but then quickly jumped up as his Sharingan felt the presence of a fist coming near his face.
He slid back and almost gasped aloud as he stared into the bleeding red eyes of Kuro Hebi. A three toma Sharingan was spinning wildly in her eyes with veins popping out of the side of her head, the chakra inside her eyes were making the entire iris glow a bright blue, making it seem like there were four tomas' spinning around in her eye.
"You wanted to play with Sharingan Sasuke! So I'll do the same!" She yelled and rushed at him swiftly, faster then even his Sharingan could predict.
He felt punches and slices tear and pound against his skin as he tried to dodge the blows without much use. Eventually he got tired of it and activated his Curse seal, causing black flame tattoos to spread across his body like wild fire and gaining him more power.
But it was useless, for Kuro too activated her curse seal upon seeing his activate, putting them right back where they started.
'How am I so much weaker then this.. Dobe!' Sasuke thought, hissing as he felt a blast of wind slice open small holes into the left side of his arm. 'And shes merely toying with me! She could've ended this easily if she used a Rasengan right now.'
As he growled in more anger he noticed her movements becoming more noticeable, and more slow. It was then he realized that he had just achieved the final toma in his Sharingan. He jumped back and smirked at Kuro, who blinked and looked into his eyes then smirked back.
"It worked Sasuke" She said, laughing as she deactivated her own eyes.
"Yeah.." He grinned at her and looked over to where the rest of their team was sitting. All of them were staring at wide eyes at Kuro and Sasuke at the amount of power they showed, though Kuro's power was far better then Sasuke's was.
Sasuke glanced towards the newer member of their group. She had short red hair and a hat that wrapped around her head, she was wearing a long white robe that one might see on a priest but Sasuke had seen her without it on and he has heard her speak, She was far, far from a priest.
But she seemed to take a liking to Kuro, who was the first one to talk to her.
-Flash back-
"Peh, These are the new runts Orochimaru? They all look like little rat bastards to me, especially that girl." She said staring hotly at Kuro.
Orochimaru and Hinata imminently stepped up to argue, though Orochimaru's words were most likely going to be more gentle, but instead Kuro stepped up and smirked at the girl.
"Your cute." She said, causing everyone to face- fault before coming back to reality as the Six-armed boy started to snicker.
Tayuya glared at her with her brown eyes shining in a pale amusement. This girl had the guts to stand up to her and insult her at the same time. She liked that. But what she really liked was that this girl practically oozed power from her pores. Tayuya could smell the large chakra inside Kuro's very soul, though she couldn't exactly tell it was Kyuubi's.
"Stupid bitch, I am not cute!" She said loudly, then turned and glared at her Six Armed teammate. "And shut up fuck face! You won't think its so funny when I shove four of your arms up your ass!"
Kidomaru backed off, amusement still obvious on his face and Tayuya was about to go and hit him when a laugh reached her ears. It was a beautiful laugh that was full of life, but Tayuya sensed the sadness under it and turned towards the one who did it.
Kuro held her hand out towards the girl, who slowly took it in confusion. Kuro grinned and shook hands with the girl. "Names Kuro Hebi, you?"
"Tayuya."
Kuro grinned while the rest of the people there stared in amazement, mainly Orochimaru for he had never seen Tayuya act so calm when introducing herself. Last time she had merely went "The fuck do you wanna know bitch? You'll probably die anyways." Though through all of those times none of the people seemed to have died.
"Well Tayuya-Hime, lets have fun, ne?" She said grinning while Tayuya glared at her because of the 'Hime' comment.
--Flash back end--
Tayuya herself had not changed since then, except that she no longer got mad at Kuro for calling her Hime. She actually seemed to enjoy it. They had also learned of many things in the Sound village. They learned many sound Jutsu and forbidden Jutsus that had been lost in their clans for decades.
Kuro had been introduced with the 'Thunder god Jutsu' otherwise known as Hiraishin by one of Orochimaru's old scrolls that he had stolen from Konoha before he left it. It had very detailed reports on how to do it but it took up a lot of chakra due to the fact that Kuro had no talent in seals and thus was unable to create the seal needed on the three pronged Kunai that was given to her by Orochimaru.
He said he was trying to figure out the seal himself but with all the business he had to do with running a village he hadn't gotten the time. So Kuro had to go without a seal, but she was still able to do it about four times before she felt slight exhaustion.
Another thing that Kuro got from Orochimaru's scroll collection was the useful Jibaku Bunshin which caused her Shadow clones to explode in a wild fire of chakra, depending on the amount she put into it. She also had learned the Seneijashu (Shadow Snake hand) and had been able to figure out how to explode her snakes as well, giving her a deadly combination, or as she liked to call it "Grab and Boom Combo!".
Hinata had begun training her Hyuuga style, mastering it to a point to where she had begun to create her own moves with her Jyuuken. She used her flexibility to her advantage by having thin lines of chakra swiftly slice and hack apart any opponent. This, combined with the priceless Hyuuga gloves she had stolen would make a deadly combination.
Shikamaru had also begun his own family training, though he was very reluctant at first. But after some encouraging from Kuro, his "angel", he got to work and actually found it enjoyable to learn such powerful moves that even his own father would probably jealous of.
Lee had been working on his Taijutsu only for the first three months, but then Orochimaru noticed this and began to ask Lee why he could not use Ninjutsu or Genjutsu. In another month, Orochimaru had completed a seal and placed it on Lee, causing him to be able to use Ninjutsu and Genjutsu once more but not as potently as he would have if he had been able to naturally.
The three sand siblings had gone back to their own village for the time being to do their own special training. Kankuro had apparently gotten new puppets, Gaara had learned how to control his sand more easily and had even started to do some Taijutsu exercises (He was forced to do this by Lee and Kuro who both claimed he would get fat and lazy if he only relied on his sand.)
Chouji had claimed a few Jutsus of his own and now was able to expand any part of his body separately, he was even able to make his elbow expand until it was long like a club. He had also learned many Doton Jutsus from another one of the elites who specialized in such things.
They had all become very strong but not strong enough. They couldn't even hope to match elite ANBU from Konoha without some sort of help.
It was then that Orochimaru called all of them, except for Tayuya, into his room.
"You are all very strong now, and it fills my heart with pride to see my students becoming so strong!" He said, making all of them smile inwardly at how they would most likely betray him. "And that is why I will give you all a gift!"
They stared at him, surprise on their face as he smiled one of his cruel smiles. "It will be painful.. Kuro and Sasuke know what I am talking about." Both of the said people grasped their curse seals upon reflex. "Now I want you all to stand still for I shall give you a great gift that will help you in your goals!" He said, doing a seal and making his neck stretch out towards them. He bit each one of them, skipping past Sasuke and Kuro.
All of the bit "elites" fell down, holding their necks but not one screamed or even shrieked in agony. Orochimaru smirked at this, yes he had certainly found great students! He looked back at Kuro and Sasuke and smirked, making both stare at him curiously.
"You two already have curse seals, so I will unlock the next level for you." Both of them had wide eyes at this.
"How?" Sasuke asked, curious wonderment etched into his voice. Orochimaru pulled out two large barrels that had four seals on each side.
"These barrels will make you go into a near death experience, this will unlock the second stage of your curse seals. But I warn you.. It'll hurt like a bitch." He said laughing at the end.
The two looked at each other, smirked, and jumped into the barrels.
Orochimaru quickly sealed the barrels and laughed loudly, it echoing through the maze.
Oh they were great catches, all of them. But they were all so foolish.. But what could he expect from someone that had been so hooked to actually loving Konoha, even for a small second.
He laughed again.
The look on the Hokage's face when he saw his students, his past Ninja, as his.
