1. Chapter 1

Hello all Storm here with a new story! Yes a new story, but another unique one as we'll be seeing Naruto emulating a different character, with it being none other than ! Also don't expect this to be the only story where Naruto is like Bass. Why? Because is too great of a character to not have more than one story where Naruto's like him. One other thing, there will be a lemon in the chapter, as always it's marked for those that'd want to skip it. So, without further ado.

I own nothing

Hōzuki Castle, also known as Blood Prison, a maximum-security prison controlled by Kusagakure where Hidden Villages send rogue Ninja to be locked away. With those left imprisoned having no hope of escape, only being able to leave the prison if they die or if the village that sent them formally requests their release.

Within one of the cells was one prisoner, though was different compared to the rest of the inmates in the castle.

The prisoner being a teenage boy, looking to be eighteen-years-old with spiky pale blonde hair, lightly tanned skin, three whisker-like marks on his cheeks, and empty blue eyes. With his attire consisting of a ragged orange and black jumpsuit.

This was Naruto Uzumaki, a former Ninja of Konohagakure who'd been sentenced to Hōzuki Castle two years ago, all for crimes he didn't commit.

'Not like it matters, they probably would've used any excuse they could to get rid of me. Even after everything I did.' Naruto thought bitterly, not believing he'd been dumb enough to believe the villagers had actually accepted him.

That any of his so-called friends would try defending him when he was sent here, instead none of them said anything, they didn't do anything. Even his own team didn't try helping him, having just stood by and watched.

Before the Uzumaki was pulled from his thoughts when his cell door opened and two guards walked in, forcefully pulling Naruto up and dragging him out of the cell. Though Naruto didn't try fighting them to escape like he used to, having given up on escaping with how long it's been. After failing dozens of times to escape and pretty much losing the only friend he had left, now he's just ready for it to be over.

'Why…?' Naruto thought, unable to help but still wonder why this happened, why no one believed him when he said he was innocent.

Still remembering that day when he was called into Tsunade's office and the crimes he was accused of committing, before everything was ruined.

*Flashback*

"Someone attacked the Raikage last night." Tsunade said, looking at Team Seven standing in her office.

"Huh?" Said Naruto, surprised and confused at hearing the Raikage had been attacked, but also confused as to why they were all here.

'Was it the Akatsuki?' Naruto wondered, guessing that must be the reason they were called here,

"What's more, Kumogakure claims it was you, Naruto!" Said Tsunade, much to the whiskered blondes shock.

"What?! They're blaming me?! Is this a joke?!" Naruto said in disbelief that Kumo was blaming him for attacking the Raikage.

Something that didn't make any sense, given he's never even been to Kumogakure before, let alone would be able to get there in less than a day and then get back to Konoha in a single night.

"Kumo lost three Jōnin during the attack! While in Iwa, two of their Shinobi were killed! And both villages sent these sketches of the attacker." Tsunade said, showing two sketches of Naruto himself, shocking Naruto further.

"That doesn't make any sense! How could I have been in Kumo or Iwa when I've been in the village the entire time!" Said Naruto, knowing that makes even less sense for him to be in two different villages.

"Yet it's known your skill with the Shadow Clone Jutsu, making it easy for you to be in multiple locations at once." Retorted Tsunade, much to Naruto's shock and hurt that she actually believed he did these things.

"That still doesn't mean I did it! There are plenty of Clone Jutsu's and the Transformation Jutsu! Come on Granny, you can't really-" Naruto said, only for the Godaime to cut him off.

"Silence! Because of this we now have a diplomatic crisis on our hands!" Tsunade said, with Naruto looking at her with wide eyes before turning to his team.

"It wasn't me! Sakura, Sai, Yamato-sensei, Kakashi-sensei you believe me right?! The only things I did last night was have dinner at Ichiraku, Teuchi and Ayame both saw me, then I played shōgi with Shikamaru! That's all I did before going to bed, you can ask any of them!" Said Naruto, hoping they would at least believe and help prove he didn't commit any crime or attack anyone.

Only to look at them in disbelief when none of them said or did anything, causing his hope to fade that they'd help him, before turning back to Tsunade.

"It wasn't me!" Naruto said, with Tsunade not faltering.

"Until we can get to the bottom of this Naruto, I have no choice but to send you to Hōzuki Castle." Tsunade said, confusing and worrying Naruto that he's being sent away.

"S-send me where? What's Hōzuki Castle?" Questioned Naruto, having no intention of going anywhere and would find out who's framing him.

"It's a prison located in Kusagakure, but it's run jointly by all the villages." Kakashi revealed, making Naruto's eyes widen that they were sending him to a prison.

"It's where villages send rogue or troublesome Ninja. It's easy enough to get into, but a lot more difficult to get out of as you'll soon discover." Added Yamato, knowing once a Ninja is sent to Hōzuki Castle, they wouldn't leave until they were dead.

"But I didn't do anything! Someone is framing me; I don't know why but someone is! I would never attack a Kage or kill Ninja from another village! Please you have to see I'm innocent, someone else did this-" Naruto said, before Tsunade slammed her hands down on her desk and stood up.

"That's enough, Naruto!" Tsunade shouted, only for the Uzumaki to make a handsign.

"Shadow Clone Jutsu!" Said Naruto, seeing none of them were willing to listen and that the only way he'd prove he's innocent is finding the real culprit himself.

"Wood Style: Four Pillar Prison Jutsu!" Yamato said making a handsign, with Naruto soon being ensnared by wooden tendrils before he could make a single clone.

"Stop! This is crazy! I didn't do anything! This is a mistake!" Said Naruto as he was trapped in a wooden cage with his hands restrained behind him and a wooden collar around his neck.

Though no one listened, with Tsunade place a tag on the cage before ripping off Naruto's headband.

"Take him away!" Tsunade ordered with four Ninja entering the office and lifting the cage up, carrying the whiskered blonde out of the office.

"It wasn't me!" Naruto yelled as he was carried out into the village.

With Naruto only feeling more shock and hurt when he saw all the villagers glaring at him as he was carried away. Even though just a few days ago they were cheering and smiling at him for defeating Nagato, for saving the village and convincing him to revive all those that died during the attack. Now though it's like that never happened, now they were looking at him like they did before.

"I always knew the monster would show it's true colors, soon enough."

"The village was only destroyed because of him."

"The Akatsuki should've just taken it and leave us alone."

"It's probably planning to finish what the Akatsuki started and kill us all."

"That thing should've been taken away a long time ago."

'Why? WHY?!' Naruto mentally screamed, wondering why this was happening.

*End Flashback*

He tried convincing the Ninja that he was being framed, hoping at least one of them would be willing to listen and help him, but none of them so much as looked at him. Leaving the Uzumaki downcast that no one from Konoha was willing to even give him a chance to prove he's innocent.

Once he'd been taken out of the village, he was taken all the way to Hōzuki Castle, traveling on a boat before being carried the rest of the way. With it being when he finally arrived that he met Mui, the master of Hōzuki Castle.

*Flashback*

Naruto stayed silent as his cage was carried into Hōzuki Castle, still hoping for the chance to escape or be let out if he can meet whoever's in charge of the prison and convince them he was framed.

Looking around the courtyard, the Uzumaki saw four guards posted at each corner with each of them holding strange metal weapons with a trigger, making them look like they fired something. Two guards at the gates, and four more guards standing behind an older man. With Naruto guessing he's either a senior guard or the warden, himself.

He also saw four other prisoners already present, with his cage being set down in between two of them before the older guard began speaking.

"Attention! Now then, new arrivals listen up and remain silent! Mui-sama, the master of Hōzuki Castle will now address you!" Said the guard before stepping aside as another man appeared.

'So this is the guy in charge.' Naruto thought, hoping that this time someone would finally listen to him.

"Let me explain your situation. Whatever you had been in your former lives, the fact that you were sent here means that you are no longer of any value to anyone. You have lost the trust of your people and are considered a threat to the peace and stability of your village-" Mui explained, looking over the new inmates.

"I was framed!" Naruto yelled, cutting Mui off, making everyone look at him in disbelief and confusion.

"I didn't do anything; you've got the wrong guy!" Said Naruto, refusing to be called a threat to his own village.

"Silence you dog-!" The guard shouted, only to fall silent when Mui held up a hand, looking at the whiskered blonde with an almost bored expression.

"You're the innocent victim of some sort of conspiracy, is that it?" Mui asked rhetorically.

"Exactly! And while we're wasting time talking, the real criminal is still out there, doing who knows what!" Naruto said, thinking Mui actually believed him, only for him to walk up to the cage as it was set down.

"We here in Kusagakure have an agreement with the other Hidden Villages, whereby we agree that those sent here will never be allowed to escape." Stated Mui as he removed the tag from the cage, causing it to disappear in a cloud of smoke.

"Your personal circumstances are none of our concern." Mui said, not caring if an inmate is innocent or guilty if they deserved to be here or not, as long as they were his prisoners they would never escape.

Before Mui made a handsign and slammed his hand against Naruto's chest, making the Uzumaki gasp in pain as he was launched back.

"Fire Style: Heavenly Prison!" Said Mui, with Naruto crashing against the gates before falling to the ground.

"That Imprisonment Jutsu is unique to my clan, it's the reason Kusagakure chose us as overseers of Hōzuki Castle. As long as you have that Jutsu Formula, you won't be able to use your Chakra." Mui explained, Naruto quickly got up and lifted his jacket seeing the glowing red markings now covering his chest.

"There are only two ways you can leave this place. The first is by official request of the village that sent you here, with the second and by far the most common way is by dying." Said Mui, continuing his speech before Naruto interrupted him.

"Hmph! Then sorry to disappoint you, but I have a third way! Shadow Clone Jutsu!" Said Naruto, making a handsign, doubting any Jutsu could stop him from using Chakra.

Though rather than create dozens of clones, Naruto was shocked to see only one clone appeared before his vision started getting blurry as he felt an unbearable heat surging through his body.

'What's happening? My body…feels like I'm on fire…' Naruto thought, gritting his teeth as he collapsed to the ground.

"I must admit, I'm impressed. That you could summon up even that much Chakra under the Heavenly Prison. Still, don't think of escaping, if you go beyond a certain distance from me the Jutsu will fully activate, burning you to a crisp. And I'm sure you're thinking that because it's a Fire Style Ninjutsu, you'll be able to escape underwater, and you'd be right. But the surrounding sea and whirlpools would ensure you would drown or be smashed against the rocks before you could even hope of swimming to safety, let alone use your Chakra to survive." Mui said, looking down at Naruto as he thrashed around on the ground, screaming in pain from the burning.

*End Flashback*

After that he'd been forced to do a strip search to make sure he didn't have any hidden weapons on him, including a full body cavity search, much to his disgust and humiliation. Before being tossed into a cell and left there, but that didn't mean Naruto intended to stay there, having already made a plan to escape.

*Flashback*

Naruto waited until night time and everyone went to sleep before creating a Shadow Clone and having it take his place in bed. Managing to suppress the pain from the Heavenly Prison Jutsu, before climbing into a corner and using the Transparency Jutsu to turn invisible.

'Now I just wait until daytime and the door is open to get out of here.' Thought Naruto, refusing to believe escaping his impossible.

Though Naruto was surprised when someone wearing a black hooded cloak entered his cell not long after everyone went to sleep.

"Who's there-GAH!" Said the clone shooting up, only to gasp when the stranger gave a quick chop to his neck, knocking the clone out.

"He can sleep his first night here…pft. Kid's either a big shot or a complete idiot." Said the stranger in disbelief while tying a blindfold around the clones eyes before carrying him out of the cell.

'Says the idiot that can't tell he only grabbed a clone!' Naruto thought smirking as he deactivated the Transparency Jutsu and exited the cell.

Climbing up the wooden cells to an upper walkway, making sure to check the other prisoners to make sure no one was awake and risk alerting any of the guards. Naruto kept going, pleased to see the guard at the front desk was asleep, before looking at the opening in the ceiling. Before the Uzumaki climbed up and out the opening, only to yelp when spears began shooting up from roof, forcing him to move dodge.

Once he was past the spears, Naruto grinned that he just had to get over the walls and he'll be out of here. Only for his grin to fade when he looked down, seeing the roof opened and revealed a pit below him, making the whiskered blonde scream as he fell down, seeing the sharpened spikes at the bottom.

Acting fast, Naruto pulled out some shuriken and wire he managed to hide during the strip search, throwing them up at the wall, catching himself before he was impaled on the spikes. Paling when he came to a stop and saw how close he was to being killed. Along with the sight of the skulls already impaled on the spikes.

'Another second and that would've been me.' Thought Naruto before he quickly began pulling himself up out of the pit.

Though as he climbed out of the pit, Naruto gritted his teeth in pain and slid down the roof, gripping his chest tightly as the Heavenly Prison activated.

'D-damnit! I can…barely move with this thing…' Thought Naruto, before his eyes widened when the alarm went off.

"Damn…they're onto me…already… Need to…get…away…" Naruto said as he tried standing up, only to gasp and fall off the roof.

Grunting as he stumbled down the roof, onto lower level ones, before finally hitting the ground and falling unconscious.

*End Flashback*

He'd been thrown into solitary confinement for three days after that, being barely able to move thanks the Heavenly Prison. But before he was left out, someone talked to him through the window, not giving him their name or why they were talking to him. Only telling the Uzumaki that if he could defeat Mui, then the Heavenly Prison would be removed.

Leading to Naruto challenging Mui once he was let out of solitary, only for the warden to not even try in defeating him. Along with talking down to him about his desire to return to Konoha, how he wasn't any good to his village if he wasn't willing to do anything for it, including killing innocent people.

He hadn't been able to do anything else, learning that even just by fighting caused the Heavenly Prison to activate and burn him. Before he was sent back to solitary for five days, though he did manage to earn some respect from the other prisoners for standing up to Mui.

Though this lead to more prisoners trying to defeat Mui to get rid of the Heavenly Prison, only for all of them to be defeated, with one being burned alive as an example. Something that kept more from trying to fight back, but it didn't keep Naruto from trying to find another way to escape.

*Flashback*

"Sorry, but I need this more than you do right now." Naruto said, looking at the unconscious guard he knocked out to get his uniform.

Once he was dressed in the uniform, Naruto made his way out of the prisoner, making sure to look like he's still patrolling it before quickly running down the stairs once he was outside.

'Even if I can only make one clone, that's all I needed!' Thought Naruto, grinning that he was finally out of the prison before making his way to the ocean.

Since going by land didn't work for him last time, he'll just swim to get away, believing he'll be able to fight the currents no matter how strong they are.

Discarding the uniform once he reached the cliffs, Naruto grunted as the wind hit him, pushing him back slightly. Before gulping as part of the cliff broke off and he saw the swirling whirlpools down below, feeling a little nervous at the sight.

"You'll die if you jump from there!" Someone said, making Naruto tense and quickly turn around.

"Who's there?!" Demanded Naruto, worried that his clone was discovered and the guards found him only be surprised when he saw another prisoner, one he recognized.

They looked to be sixteen-years-old, with fair tanned skin, greyish-purple eyes with rings in them that reminded Naruto of the Rinnegan, and white hair that covered the right side of their face and held back by a green bandanna with a curved white stripe. With them wearing a sleeveless kimono over a green top that only has a long green sleeve covering their left arm, black pants with bandages wrapped around the bottom of them, and black Shinobi sandals, along with both their arms being bandaged up to their elbows.

Naruto recognized them from when he first arrived in Hōzuki Castle, while being surprised at how they were able to sneak outside too.

"Why are you so determined to get away?" They asked, confused at why he kept trying to escape, to get back to a village that so easily tossed him aside even if he's innocent.

"If I don't get out of here, I can't prove I'm innocent!" Naruto said as if it was obvious.

"And how are you gonna do that?" Questioned the prisoner, wondering how exactly he's going to prove he's innocent, when he doesn't even know who framed him.

With the question making Naruto stumble slightly since he didn't really think of that, only focusing on escaping so he could prove he's innocent.

"I…I don't know exactly. But I'll find a way!" Replied Naruto, knowing while he may not know where to start, he would find a way.

"…What makes you think they'll believe you? After all they're the ones who sent you here." The prisoner said, making the whiskered blonde scowl.

"I don't care! If you think I'm just gonna sit around here and wait for them to catch the guy that framed me, you're crazy!" Naruto shouted before turning and jumping off the cliff into the water, much to their disbelief.

'And you're insane! Ugh! I swear…maybe I'm insane too for doing this!' Thought the prisoner before pulling off their bandanna showing her long white hair, jumping in after Naruto.

*Later*

"So uh…I guess I should thank you for saving my life." Naruto muttered as he sat by a fire while his clothes were hung up to dry, leaving him in just his boxers.

Knowing he's lucky they jumped in after him, given how couldn't even use any Jutsu with how the current was throwing him around, before being knocked out when he was slammed into the cliffside.

But when Naruto looked at the prisoner, his eyes widened in shock and blushed brightly at seeing his savior in nothing but her panties and removing her chest bindings to hang with the rest of her wet clothes.

'They…she…wow…' Thought Naruto looking her up and down.

Even if it's just seeing her from the back, Naruto couldn't deny she's an incredibly beautiful girl while also seeing how toned she was, showing the training she's gone through as well. Along with how her white hair contrasted nicely with her tanned skin, giving her a unique allure and beauty.

'I wouldn't mind watching her walk away.' Naruto thought when he looked at her ass, seeing how her panties clung to it, imagining how it'd look like swaying side to side.

"You were lucky. The currents only get worse from there if you had been swept just a little further out, I wouldn't have been able to save you." She said, making her sure her clothes were spread out to dry before turning towards the Uzumaki, raising a brow at seeing Naruto staring at her with his entire face being red.

"What the hell are you staring at?" Questioned the girl while bringing up an arm to cover her breasts, snapping Naruto back to reality.

"What am I staring at?! You're a girl and you're practically naked!" Naruto said, not expecting her to be a girl wearing a disguise or to take off all her clothes.

'If I had a ryo for every time I met a girl that dressed like a boy, I'd have…like six ryo. Which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened that many times. Right?' Thought Naruto, momentarily thinking of Haku when in her Hunter-Nin outfit, Sasame, Amaru, Toki, Haruna, and now this girl.

Before the Uzumaki yelped when she walked over and suddenly slapped him across the face, much to his disbelief and annoyance.

"What the hell was that for?!" Naruto demanded, wondering why she just slapped him.

"Don't even think about telling anyone! And don't forget, I just saved your life so you owe me!" Warned the girl while glaring at him.

"Okay, okay! I won't say anything, I wouldn't even if you didn't save me!" Said Naruto, not knowing why she's hiding her gender, but it was clearly for a reason.

Glaring at him for a more moments, though it lessened at his words as the girl sat down beside him, gaining a faint blush when she glanced at him. Unable to help but take in the sight of his body, seeing while the whiskered blonde wasn't overly muscular, he still looked well-built.

With Naruto having the same problem as he glanced at the girl, unable to help himself from looking at her body again now that he could see more. Being able to see that even while she covered her breasts, he could see they were still big, guessing they were around a high-C-cup or low-D-cup.

Before the two quickly looked away when they saw the other was staring, with the girl quickly focusing on tossing more wood on the fire.

"…You remember what I told you in the holding cell?" The girl asked, making the whiskered blonde look at her only to quickly look away again to avoid staring.

"About the hole and that I should stop digging. Yeah." Naruto replied, having not understood what she meant when she said that.

"That was a warning to watch your step. Clearly it didn't get through to you at all. You act before thinking, that's why you keep getting into trouble. I mean seriously, are even really a Shinobi?" Said the girl, finding it hard to believe someone like him is a Ninja.

"You're one to talk! Who even are you anyway?!" Retorted Naruto in annoyance.

"Ryūzetsu, I'm a member of the ANBU Black Ops from Kusagakure and we know all about you, Naruto Uzumaki. I infiltrated Hōzuki Castle specifically because I received intel that you were being imprisoned there." Ryūzetsu replied, much to Naruto's surprise.

Which also makes it hard for her to believe that he's the same person that's fought against the Snake Sannin, was trained by the Toad Sage, killed a member of the Akatsuki, and single-handedly defeated its leader. Then seeing him for herself, shouting brazenly how he was innocent, openly challenging Mui, and that show he made of himself in the cafeteria. It left Ryūzetsu feeling more than a little underwhelmed.

"You're an Anbu? But why? What do you want with me?" Naruto asked, wondering why she'd infiltrate Blood Prison just for him.

"I know who framed you." Said Ryūzetsu, causing Naruto's eyes to widen in shock.

"Are you serious?! Tell me, who was it?!" Said Naruto, not expecting her to know who framed him.

"The master of Hōzuki Castle, Mui." Ryūzetsu revealed, making the whiskered blonde look at her in confusion, not knowing why or what reason Mui would have to frame him.

"Mui is a Jōnin of Kusagakure, he comes from a long line of gatekeepers, who do just that, guard the gate. And beyond the gate, there is a box." Explained Ryūzetsu, confusing Naruto further.

"A box?" Naruto asked, wondering what a box had to do with this.

"It's known as the Box of Ultimate Bliss and according to legend, it's supposed to grant the wish of anyone that can open it." Said Ryūzetsu, with Naruto raising a brow.

"A box that grants wishes. There's no way that's true." Said Naruto, shaking his head, doubting something like that is real.

"No one knows for sure if it's true. But they say during the era of the Sage of Six Paths, Kusagakure came close to conquering the world after opening the Box." Ryūzetsu stated, only knowing the legend, not if it's true or not.

"If it's true, then what kept them from winning?" Naruto asked, only for the white-haired girl to shake her head.

"No one knows why. Only that one day Kusagakure was completely destroyed and from amongst the survivors, two rival factions were born. The Seeds of Grass seeks to revive Kusagakure through war and conquest while we of the Flowers of Grass sought peace. Mui belongs to the Seeds of Grass, they intend to use the Box as a weapon." Explained Ryūzetsu, making Naruto frown.

'Like there wasn't enough problems already.' Naruto thought, not wanting to deal with another organization trying to take over the world.

"According to the intel we received, it requires an enormous amount of Chakra in order to open the Box. That's why you're here, they want the Chakra you possess as a Jinchūriki to open the box. So they framed you, knowing you'd be sent here." Ryūzetsu said, looking at Naruto.

"So these Seeds of Grass guys are the reason I'm stuck here?" Said Naruto, hating that just like the Akatsuki, he's here because they want the Kyūbi for their weapon.

"That's right. And my mission is to prevent the Seeds of Grass from opening the Box, no matter what." Replied Ryūzetsu, which only made Naruto's frown deepen.

"Then maybe it was a mistake to save me. If you let me drown then they wouldn't be able to open it." Naruto said, knowing if that's her mission, then saving him went against it.

Only to be surprised when Ryūzetsu's head snapped towards him.

"If I had done that…if I had let an innocent person die, just because it would serve my purposes…then I would be no different than Mui." Ryūzetsu said, refusing to be anything like Mui and sacrifice an innocent person just to achieve her goal.

"Mui?" Said Naruto.

"That man…Mui doesn't care what he has to do to open that Box. He was even willing to sacrifice his own son." Said Ryūzetsu, having been shocked and horrified when she saw Mui willingly sacrifice Muku to the Box.

With Naruto being just as shocked and horrified that Mui would do that to his own son, sacrificing him to some Box on the chance that it would grant a wish when it had enough Chakra.

"The only way I will ever fulfill my mission is by killing Mui. I will kill Mui." Ryūzetsu swore, knowing that will be the only way she completes her mission and avenge Muku.

"Ryūzetsu, I'll help you destroy the Box." Naruto said, making Ryūzetsu look at him in surprise.

"You'll what?" Questioned Ryūzetsu, not expecting him to offer to help her.

"These Seed guys are the reason I'm here, just so they can feed me to some stupid Box they think will grant them a wish. Then I say it's only fair that I smash it into pieces. Besides, you helped me, now it's my turn to help you." Said Naruto, smiling at the girl, with her still being surprised before nodding.

"Then you have my gratitude. But if you have any hope of opening the gate and destroying the Box, then we need to remove the Heavenly Prison so you can use your Chakra. And the only way it can be removed is by killing Mui." Ryūzetsu said, causing Naruto to frown.

"Killing Mui will break the Jutsu? Well you don't need to worry about it, this thing won't stop me from smashing that Box, you don't have to kill the guy." Naruto said since while he might be angry at Mui for framing him, that didn't mean he wants to kill the guy.

"You say that now, but-" Said Ryūzetsu, only for Naruto to cut her off.

"Don't worry about it Ryūzetsu, I've dealt with tougher things than some stupid Jutsu and a giant Box. Plenty of people have underestimated me before and I've proved them wrong, every time." Said Naruto, making Ryūzetsu look at him with a frown.

"You still never answered my question from before." Ryūzetsu said, with Naruto blinking in confusion at her.

"What question?" Naruto asked.

"Before you jumped off the cliff. Even if you prove your innocence, what makes you think anyone from your village will believe you?" Said Ryūzetsu, the Uzumaki scowled at the question.

"I already told you-" Said Naruto, not liking she's bringing that up again.

"You told me I was crazy if you were going to sit around while the person who framed you was still out there, that's not an answer." Ryūzetsu said, before pulling Naruto back down to silence him when he tried speaking again.

"Forget everything I just told you for a moment and look at the basics. You were accused of killing Ninja from Iwagakure and Kumogakure, along with trying to kill the Raikage. That's two villages miles away from Konoha that would take days if not weeks to reach, even needing to take a boat to reach Kumo. They can use the excuse that with you knowing the Shadow Clone Jutsu for how you can be in two places at once. Yet you've used it twice now here to try and escape, the first time it was discovered before you even made it past the wall, then the second time I already knew you escaped and it likely won't be long before it's discovered again. Yet those in Konoha believe you could get to two different villages and not one of them would've been able to tell that you left a clone behind in your place? If that's true, then I can see why Konoha's now nothing but a crater if they grew complacent to the point where they can't even tell the difference between a clone and the original." Explained Ryūzetsu, which only made Naruto angrier.

"Shut it! You don't know anything about Konoha or the people in it!" Said Naruto, with the Anbu still looking at him calmly.

"You're right, I don't, but I have heard about how despite their claims of the Will of Fire and how everyone in the village is a family, they aren't above turning on their own. The most infamous example being Sakumo Hatake, the father of your sensei Kakashi Hatake, who they ostracized and persecuted for valuing the lives of his comrades over the success of the mission despite being hailed as a hero and one of their most powerful Shinobi just prior to said mission. Driving him to commit seppuku and costing Konoha a Ninja that was considered on par with Hanzō of the Salamander at his prime." Ryūzetsu stated, leaving Naruto stunned silent as he never knew the full story of Kakashi's father, only that he died a while back from Ebizō when Chiyo attacked Kakashi under the belief he was the White Fang.

"And like I said, we also did our research and I know about you Naruto and everything you've done for Konoha. You're the reason they have a Godaime Hokage, the part you played in stopping the Suna/Oto Invasion three years ago, you also helped rescue the Kazekage after he was taken by the Akatsuki and before you were sent here, you saved all of their lives against the Akatsuki's leader. You did all of that, yet the moment you're accused of committing crimes that would be impossible for you to commit, they turned their backs on you." Ryūzetsu said with Naruto trying to come up with a retort, only to be unable to think of anything to say.

"Think about it, you did all of that, but the moment they thought you were a criminal they all just accepted it as fact. Even if by some chance you can convince them you're innocent, then what? Do you think you can just go back to pretending everything is normal, even knowing how easily they turned their backs on you." Said Ryūzetsu, giving the whiskered blonde a challenging look.

"I…I can't…I can't just abandon my village." Naruto said weakly, making the white-haired girl shrug.

"Then don't. But never forget nor forgive what they did, make sure they never forget what you've done for them, and think about when has anyone ever done anything for you without ulterior motives. Don't just forgive and forget, remember what they've done and be prepared if it ever happens again." Ryūzetsu said, looking into the fire, with Naruto frowning as he looked into it too.

"That sounds selfish." Stated Naruto, not liking the idea of holding something like that over everyone's heads.

"So is tossing aside the person that saved their lives without even trying to defend him. If your village wants to be selfish and decide whether they want you to be a hero or a villain, then so can you. You can decide if you want to save them next time or be selfish and choose what you want. There's nothing wrong with being selfish and focusing on your own wants and desires, Naruto." Said Ryūzetsu, making the Uzumaki look at her for a moment before turning back to the fire.

Before he looked at the white-haired girl again, now openly staring at her body and admiring her fit and curvaceous frame. With Ryūzetsu soon noticing his stare, making her blush at how he was looking at her, especially seeing the look in his eyes.

"Wh-why are you-" Ryūzetsu asked, wondering he was looking at her.

Only to gasp when Naruto suddenly moved forward, cupping her cheek before kissing her, making Ryūzetsu's eyes widen in shock at what he just did. Before she closed her eyes and began returning the kiss, putting a hand on the back of the Uzumaki's head as they began making out.

With Ryūzetsu soon falling down onto her back, while Naruto moved on top of her, never once breaking the kiss as their hands began exploring each other's bodies. Though when Naruto grabbed one of her breasts, Ryūzetsu moaned into the kiss, snapping Naruto back to his senses.

The whiskered blonde's eyes widened before he pulled back, blushing brightly in mortification and embarrassment at what he just did.

"I-I-I'm sorry! I d-di-d-didn't mean t-to-to d-d-do-do that! I-I-I j-ju-j-just-" Naruto stuttered, not knowing what made him suddenly kiss her.

Having simply thought over what she said about being more selfish with what he wants, combined with how she's only wearing her panties with Naruto unable to deny how attractive she is. Then with what she said, he just had the urge to kiss her simply because he wanted to.

Before Naruto could say anything else, Ryūzetsu lunged forward and pushed him down onto his back and straddled him, smirking slyly down at the Uzumaki.

"Here's some more free advice, if you're going to start something then be prepared to finish it." Ryūzetsu stated before immediately leaning down and initiating another makeout session, with Naruto losing what little restraint he had as he started returning the kiss.

*Lemon*

Moaning into each other's mouths, Naruto wrapped his hands around Ryūzetsu's hips before grabbing her ass, making the Kunoichi gasp in excitement as he began squeezing her ass. Only to moan loudly into his mouth when he suddenly spanked her, allowing Naruto to shove his tongue into her mouth.

Moving his tongue all around Ryūzetsu's mouth, Naruto pulled her against his body, feeling her breasts pressed firmly against his chest. While Ryūzetsu began pushing her tongue against the Uzumaki's, with her hands moving along his body.

'Definitely feels better than just looking.' Ryūzetsu thought, only to moan in pleasure when Naruto moved one of his hands from her ass up to her breasts and began eagerly pawing at them.

Her pleasure only growing when his other hand slipped into her panties, letting him play with her ass even more.

Once she reached his boxers, Ryūzetsu smiled eagerly into the kiss before working to pull them down and grabbed his member once it was exposed, only for her eyes to widen when she felt how big he was.

'Oh yeah, we're finishing this.' Ryūzetsu thought lustfully, feeling herself grow wet at imagining having him inside her.

Squeezing his dick, Ryūzetsu began stroking the Uzumaki, making Naruto groan in pleasure at the feeling before he broke the kiss and looked at the white-haired girl.

"Are you sure, Ryūzetsu?" Naruto asked, wanting to make sure she didn't have any second thoughts, doubting he'll be able to stop if they go any further.

Only to groan when Ryūzetsu squeezed his cock and kept stroking it even faster, smirking lustfully at him.

"I'm ready to go, you're the one who-oooooohhhh!" Said Ryūzetsu, only to moan loudly when Naruto suddenly move his hand from her ass and to her pussy, thrusting two fingers into her.

"I'm the one who's what?" Said Naruto, smirking at her as he began thrusting his fingers into her snatch.

"You're the one who's about to fuck me!" Ryūzetsu moaned before slamming their lips together.

Moaning as they made out, with Ryūzetsu stroking Naruto's cock while Naruto fingered her pussy before the Kunoichi gasped into the kiss when Naruto flipped them over. Only to wrap her legs around his waist when he grunted and lifted her up off the ground. Using his other hand to grab her by her ass, while stilling thrusting into her pussy with his other.

"You're just full of surprises aren't you." Said Ryūzetsu in between kisses, not expecting him to be that strong.

"Just wait." Naruto said as he pressed her against the stone wall and pulled back, making Ryūzetsu moan in disappointment when he removed his fingers.

Though her arousal only grew when he took of his boxers with the white-haired girl licking her lips at seeing his members rather than just feeling it. Before she quickly pulled off her panties, leaving them completely naked.

Ryūzetsu moaned lustfully when Naruto immediately shoved his fingers back into her snatch, but rather than kiss her, he latched onto her neck. Holding his head against her neck, Ryūzetsu tilted her head to give him better access, her moans growing louder when he began sucking on her pulse point.

With her reaching down and grabbed his cock to continue jerking him off, making the whiskered blonde groan into her neck and instinctively bite down. The sudden pressure making Ryūzetsu throw her head back, moaning in pure ecstasy at the feeling, which only grew as he began thrusting in and out of her hand.

Kissing and sucking on her neck, Naruto soon began moving down to her shoulder and collarbone, leaving marks along the way as he did. While the Kunoichi lost her grip on his cock as he moved down her body until he soon reached her breasts. Admiring the sight of her erect pretty pink nipples, latching onto one of them, making Ryūzetsu gasp and push her chest out.

"Oh fuck, yes! Keep going, fuck my wet cunt, suck my tits!" Ryūzetsu moaned as she began bucking her his against Naruto's hand as he added a third finger into her pussy, while pushing his head further against her breasts.

Shivering in delight when he pulled back and scraped his teeth against her nipple and began flicking it with his tongue. While his other hand went to her other breast and began squeezing and groping it, the Uzumaki moaned as he took her nipple back into his mouth, enjoying the feeling and taste of her tits. Taking her other nipple between his fingers and gave it a sharp twist, making Ryūzetsu gasp excitedly at the jolt of pain and pleasure.

"You really like my tits." Stated Ryūzetsu with a pleased smirk only to moan loudly when Naruto gave her breast a long lick from the bottom to the top.

"I'd be crazy not to." Naruto said as he began kissing her breast all around it, before going to the bottom and began licking all around it.

Moving his tongue along her breast in a spiral pattern until he reached the nipple at the center, giving it a final lick before planting kisses across her chest to her other breast. With Ryūzetsu panting lustfully, feeling like she'll explode from the teasing.

Only to moan in ecstasy as Naruto suddenly pulled his fingers from her snatch before immediately shoving them back in, pulling them out until just the very tips were inside and shoved them back in. The Kunoichi started thrusting her hips against his hand, feeling her juices dripping down in anticipation.

While Naruto reached Ryūzetsu's other breast, pressing his tongue against her hardened nipple, watching as it popped back as he latched onto it. The Anbu moaned as he gave both her breasts attention, groping the one he'd already sucked on, while licking the other.

"Fuck…just fuck me already." Ryūzetsu moaned, wanting to just cum already before she goes crazy from the ministrations.

"Whatever you want, Ryū-chan." Said Naruto, detaching from her tit and began kissing down her body until he soon reached her crotch.

Looking at her dripping pussy, Naruto didn't hesitate before spreading her lower lips open with his fingers and latched his mouth onto her cunt. Making Ryūzetsu scream in pure pleasure, bending over and pressing his head into her crotch.

"Oh fuck! Kami yes! Lick me, fuck me, devour my cunt!" Screamed Ryūzetsu, throwing one of her legs over Naruto's shoulder, holding him against her clit.

Encouraged by response, Naruto began licking her more vigorously, spreading her clitoris open and shoving his tongue as deep into her as he could. The Uzumaki also rubbed her snatch from the outside, making Ryūzetsu pant heavily at the attention both inside and outside her pussy.

"Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes! Oh Kami yes!" Ryūzetsu moaned as she began humping Naruto's face, feeling she was getting close to her limit.

Only to moan in disappointment when Naruto suddenly moved his fingers away from her cunt before her eyes widened as his hands moved behind her and squeezed her. Not stopping there as he spread her ass open, the Kunoichi arched her back, screaming loudly in ecstasy when he shoved one his juice-covered fingers into her asshole. Her arousal and pleasure growing further when he shoved a second finger into her ass, stretching it out even more.

"OH FUCK! Kami you're fucking my ass and my cunt! Fuck yes, keep going!" Ryūzetsu said, moving her hips back and forth against Naruto eating out her snatch and the fingers in her ass.

Naruto continued licking and sucking on Ryūzetsu's clit, before he pulled back and gave the outside a long lick to the top, with him then latching onto it again. Feeling she was getting close with how much of her juices came pouring out.

Moving his free hand from ass, Naruto spread Ryūzetsu's labia open again, pushing his tongue back inside. Enjoying the sounds of her moans growing louder and feeling her press his head deeper into her crotch. The Uzumaki then moved his fingers to the top of her snatch and began rubbing her clitoris, making Ryūzetsu's eyes widen.

"OH YES!" Ryūzetsu moaned, throwing her head back as her orgasm hit her with her juices squirting out over Naruto's face.

With the whiskered blonde lapping them up as they came out, groaning at feeling how painfully hard he was from making the Kunoichi cum. Before standing up once Ryūzetsu stopped cumming, the white-haired girl immediately slammed her lips against his. Moaning loudly into his mouth as she tasted her own juices on his tongue.

"I taste good on you. But now it's my turn!" Said Ryūzetsu lustfully before pushing Naruto onto his back, with his dick standing up, much to her excitement.

Naruto groaned in surprise and pleasure when Ryūzetsu didn't hesitate to dive down, taking her entire dick into her mouth.

"Shit! Ryū-chan, your mouth feels amazing!" Naruto grunted, grabbing Ryūzetsu by the back of her hand and began thrusting into her mouth, making her gag slightly.

Before she moaned as she adjusted to the feeling, adding to the whiskered blondes pleasure as she began fondling his balls with one of her hands. Making Naruto groan loudly at the added stimulation and started thrusting into her mouth faster and harder.

'Fuck, I could get addicted to this!' Ryūzetsu thought, moaning around Naruto's dick while her other hand went down and began thrusting into her snatch, feeling how soaking wet she was for the main event.

Her arousal growing as she licked the tip of his cock, tasting the precum leaking out, bobbing her head up and down even faster. With her tongue licking all around his member as she sucked on it, with Naruto groaning in pleasure as she kept taking him deeper into her mouth and playing with his balls.

Only for Ryūzetsu to soon pull back from his dick, moving up his body before wrapping her breasts around his cock, smirking as Naruto moaned and started thrusting into her tits.

"Since you like sucking on them so much, I figured you'd really love having my tits wrapped around your friend here." Ryūzetsu said, her smirk growing as Naruto looked at her, his eyes filled with lust and desire.

"You're right! Your boobs feel amazing, so soft and tight!" Naruto grunted, bucking his hips against her breasts, groaning in ecstasy as Ryūzetsu licked the tip of his cock and sucked on it.

"I bet you'd love to shoot your hot, thick cum down my throat, to fuck my throat as deeply as you can and fill me up. Letting it all out over my tits, covering me, marking me for everyone to see how good you fucked me. Is that right, Naru-kun~." Ryūzetsu purred seductively, licking the tip of his dick again before taking it into her mouth, while Naruto grunted in arousal at the idea.

"Fuck! Yes!" Said Naruto as he felt he was getting close, wanting to do everything she just said and more.

But before he could cum, Naruto's eyes widened when Ryūzetsu suddenly stood up, much to his disbelief that she stopped. Only to be silenced when the Kunoichi moved and got down over him, shoving her pussy into his mouth, leaning down and took his dick into her mouth again.

'Even better!' Naruto thought grabbing her ass and shoving his tongue into her cunt, eager to make her orgasm again while shooting his cum down her throat.

Bobbing her head up and down his length, the white-haired girl moaned in ecstasy as he grabbed her ass and devoured her pussy.

With Ryūzetsu pulling back slightly and began jerking the Uzumaki off with her hand while licking along his length she wasn't stroking. While her other hand began fondling his balls as well, making Naruto groan into her pussy and make him begin licking even faster. Taking the head back into her mouth, Ryūzetsu moaned as she felt she was getting close to cumming again. Feeling the whiskered blondes balls also begin tensing, showing he's getting close as well.

'But not just yet!' Ryūzetsu thought lustfully as she forced herself to pull back and quickly get off of Naruto, much to his annoyance.

"Really?! Why do you keep-!" Naruto said, annoyed that she stopped just before he came again.

Only for the Uzumaki to groan loudly in pure ecstasy when Ryūzetsu stepped over him and dropped down, impaling herself on his dick, making the white-haired girl scream in pleasure.

"FUCK YES! Oh fuck yes! Fuck! Fuck! Fuck! Fuck!" Ryūzetsu screamed as she began bouncing on Naruto's length, rocking her hips as she did so to get as much pleasure as she can.

"So tight!" Naruto grunted while grabbing Ryūzetsu's hips and thrust into her pussy, loving how tight it was, squeezing his member and refusing to let go.

"Yes! Fuck me! Fuck me! If you want to cum, then it'll damn well be inside me! Ooooooooohhhh yes!" Moaned Ryūzetsu, wanting Naruto to cum inside her.

Before the Kunoichi squealed in delight when she suddenly found herself on her back and Naruto on top of her, roughly pounding into her snatch.

"If you try stopping again, then I'll take you like the horny slut you are!" Growled Naruto, making Ryūzetsu moan excitedly before wrapping her legs around his waist.

"No stopping! Not again! Now shut up and fuck me!" Ryūzetsu said before grabbing the whiskered blonde by the back of his head and slamming their lips together.

Moaning into each other's mouths, Naruto began thrusting even faster while Ryūzetsu rocked her hips against his, loving how she was being stretched out and wrapped around his member. The Uzumaki's thrusts growing faster as he felt he was getting close, the Kunoichi feeling the same as her walls tightened.

Before Naruto gave a final thrust, groaning as he began shooting his cum deep into Ryūzetsu, the white-haired girl moaning loudly into his mouth as she came. Squirting her juices out over his crotch and over his cock.

The two continued making out as they came, holding each other tightly until their orgasms started dying down.

*End Lemon*

Naruto and Ryūzetsu continued making out for a few moments until finally separating, panting heavily though smiled in satisfaction and basking in the afterglow. With Ryūzetsu removing her legs from his waist, allowing Naruto to roll off her onto the ground.

"That was…fuck, that was amazing. You must've made a lot of girls happy." Ryūzetsu said in between breaths.

"Uh…that was…actually my first time." Said Naruto, blushing slightly at the admission, much to Ryūzetsu's disbelief.

"Bullshit! No one can be that good on their first time!" Said Ryūzetsu, refusing to believe he hasn't had experience in pleasing girls.

"It's true! I…uh, just knew a lot of what to do since a Jutsu I made involved me learning a lot about girls and what they made them feel good. And…I did spend three years training with a self-proclaimed Super Pervert." Naruto said, having done a lot of research when he made his Sexy Jutsu, wanting it to be as real as possible.

And traveling with Jiraiya for three years, the Toad Sage had him read over his books and then took it upon himself to "educate" him on how to please a girl. Making it so Naruto knew everything he needed when the time finally came.

"Huh, well damn you definitely knew what you were doing. And since we're being honest, that…was actually my first time as well." Admitted Ryūzetsu as she blushed slightly, while Naruto raised a brow.

"But it didn't seem like you had a hymen." Said Naruto, knowing girls had that if they're still virgins.

"It broke during training, and I've had seduction lessons before becoming a Kunoichi and when I became an Anbu. And I'm glad to see they paid off." Ryūzetsu said, smirking at him.

"They definitely did. But uh…what exactly…did that mean?" Naruto asked, wondering what it meant for Ryūzetsu, if it was just a heat of the moment kind of thing or something else.

"Let's just call it a result of our hormones and sexual tension. But for what'll happen after…it'll be a lot more than just hormones." Said Ryūzetsu, climbing on top of Naruto, much to his surprise.

"After?" Said Naruto while grabbing her hips.

"Oh yeah, you just took my first time, so I'm expecting you to take responsibility. Besides, I'm selfish with my desires too~." Ryūzetsu said before pulling him into a kiss, the Uzumaki happily returning it as they began another makeout session

*End Flashback*

After their clothes had finished drying, the two had reluctantly pulled away and got cleaned up, before returning to Hōzuki Castle. Along with after making a plan for how they would be able to deal with Mui and destroy the Box. With it being that Naruto would challenge Mui again to be sent to solitary, where he'd make a clone to gather Natural Energy and enter Sage Mode.

Figuring that if the Heavenly Prison makes it so he can't use the Chakra inside his body, then he could be able to still use Chakra if he gathers Natural Energy from outside his body.

While he did that, Ryūzetsu planned to kill Mui while he slept, breaking the Heavenly Prison, allowing them to find the Box and destroy it. Unfortunately, it didn't take long for their plan to go horribly wrong.

*Flashback*

Naruto grunted as the guards forced him down to his knees in the yard, seeing Mui standing across from him.

"What? Were you hoping for another round so soon?" Naruto said, glaring at Mui, wondering why he was taken out of solitary so soon, especially since his clone hasn't gathered enough Natural Energy.

"I'm sure you won't be surprised to hear, someone tried to assassinate me last night. Unfortunately for them, all they killed was my aide disguised as me. And now, unfortunately for you, you have exhausted the last of my patience. Bring her out." Mui ordered, causing Naruto's eyes to widen when he said "her".

Before he watched as more guards brought out a restrained Ryūzetsu, tossing her on the ground beside Mui with Naruto struggling to escape the guards to help her. Only to grunt when he was struck in the back of the head and knocked to the ground, before being forced back up to his knees.

"Ryūzetsu, it's been a while." Mui said, looking at his late son's friend, while Ryūzetsu glared murderously at him.

"Not long enough you bastard!" Retorted Ryūzetsu only to cry out in pain when Mui made a handsign, activating the Heavenly Prison on her.

"NO! Leave her alone, Mui! I'm the one you want! That's why you had me thrown in here, right?! To open your damn box!" Yelled Naruto, struggling even harder to escape the guards before gasping in pain when one of them slammed their knee into his stomach.

"So I see she told you about the Box of Ultimate Bliss. It doesn't matter, it will be opened. I was content to let you continue your foolish endeavor to try and escape, waiting until you gave up and accepted you were never leaving here alive before sacrificing you. But now it seems I have to force the issue myself, if you won't break willingly then I'll do it myself." Said Mui while Ryūzetsu's screams grew louder, feeling like her entire body was on fire, being burned from the inside out.

"You bastard! Let her go or I'll-" Naruto shouted before his head was smashed into the ground by a guard.

"You'll what? Use the Kyūbi's Chakra? Do you think I hadn't considered the possibility when you were brought here. Maybe the Heavenly Prison can't stop you from using its Chakra, but I've taken measures to ensure you still can't. After all, if you could use the Kyūbi's Chakra, why haven't you done so to escape already? Use it to kill me and break the Heavenly Prison?" Mui asked, making the Uzumaki's eyes widen at the realization.

Before gritting his teeth as Ryūzetsu kept scream, making him angry as he kept trying to break free from the guards. Only to grunt as they began kicking and stomping on him, keeping the whiskered blonde from getting up.

Though this only fueled Naruto's anger and desperation to get to Ryūzetsu, with him reacting as he saw one of the guards legs coming at his face. The Uzumaki instantly reached and grabbed the guards leg, knocking them to the ground before snapping it at the knee, making the guard scream in agony.

The shock at the sudden attack allowing Naruto the chance to get up and rush at Mui, only to be tackled to the ground by the guards once they snapped out of their shock. Only for Naruto to keep struggling as they tried holding him down. Even biting down on one of the guards arms when they tried grabbing him in a headlock.

Biting down hard enough until he tasted blood, with the guard screaming as they tried pulling him off, before he was forced to let go when something hit him in the back of his head. With the guards beating him down again, though were now careful as they did so. But even then Naruto didn't stop trying to get up, kicking out his legs and swinging his arms to either hit or grab one of the guards.

While Mui watched this with narrowed eyes, before glancing between Naruto and Ryūzetsu in understanding.

"I see, you care about her." Mui said, seeing how desperate Naruto was to break free, a desperation to save someone he cares for no matter what.

"Please…stop…" Begged Naruto, just wanting Mui to stop torturing Ryūzetsu.

"You had your chance, now you can accept the consequences of your actions." Said Mui as he kept the Jutsu activated, forcing Naruto to keep hearing Ryūzetsu's screams.

*End Flashback*

Mui had kept the Heavenly Prison active until Ryūzetsu finally passed out from the pain, with Naruto only being thankful that she was still alive. Only for Mui to give him a final warning that if he ever tried escaping or challenging him again, he would full activate the Heavenly Prison and burn Ryūzetsu alive, killing her. All while forcing the Uzumaki to watch as it happened.

Something that horrified Naruto, leaving him no choice but to agree, not wanting Ryūzetsu to be killed because of him. With him having been thrown back into solitary confinement while Ryūzetsu had been taken away, not knowing where she was or what condition she was in. Only knowing she was put in a medically-induced coma, ensuring she doesn't try anything either.

Though that wasn't the end of it, as while Naruto didn't plan to do anything that'd endanger Ryūzetsu's life, Mui was done playing nice and made sure that Naruto's time in Hōzuki Castle was absolute hell. Wanting to make sure the fight was completely beaten out of the Uzumaki, letting the guards and prisoners attack him without consequences. The only restriction being nothing too damaging, since he still needed Naruto intact.

Leading to Naruto being beaten multiple times a day, never once being able to fight back out of worry of what Mui would do if he did, leaving him to have to take the beatings.

It wasn't long before the days turned into weeks, then into months, and then before long two years had passed with any hope Naruto had of escaping vanishing as time passed. Along with the hope that anyone from Konoha would get him out of there, realizing they actually did believe he committed those crimes and were never going to help him.

Leaving the Uzumaki bitter and disillusioned, accepting he really isn't getting out alive and would die once Mui finally decided to sacrifice him to the Box.

'I guess it's finally happening.' Naruto thought in resignation as the guards dragged him to Mui's office, tossing him on the ground in front of Mui before leaving.

"It's time." Mui stated, with Naruto struggling to get up to his hands and knees.

"Where is she?" Questioned Naruto, wanting to at least know where Ryūzetsu is before he'd fed to the Box.

"Still alive." Said Mui before grabbing Naruto by his collar and opening the passageway to the Box.

Naruto didn't fight him as Mui dragged him down several flights of stairs to the underground cavern, soon reaching the chamber with the Box and placing the whiskered blonde on a metal table.

Looking around the cavern, Naruto soon spotted Ryūzetsu lying on a bed, making his eyes widen as he felt relief that she was still alive.

"Once this is over, she'll be released, I give you my word." Mui said, seeing where Naruto was looking, having felt it'd be best to keep Ryūzetsu hidden and close by, just in case.

"Go to hell." Naruto muttered, refusing to believe anything Mui said.

"Perhaps one day I will be." Said Mui, accepting that's likely where he'll end up for everything he's done.

Once he finished the preparations, Mui stepped back and held out his hands as the gate to the Box glowed a dark purple. Before Naruto screamed in pain as his Chakra and the Kyūbi's began being sucked out and transferred to the Box. With him soon floating up off the table and pulled towards the Box as the mouth on it opened, showing a swirling black and purple void inside. The whiskered blonde unable to help the panic and fear he felt that this was it. Feeling his life flash before his eyes, remembering becoming a Ninja, the mission to Wave, the Chūnin Exams, going on the mission to find Tsunade, fighting Satsuki at the Valley of the End, all the missions he went on.

His training trip, coming back to Konoha and rescuing Gaara, fighting Orochimaru, fighting the Akatsuki, learning Sage Mode after Jiraiya's death, fighting Pein. Everything he's been through, all leading up to being trapped here for two years.

Naruto cried out as the Box pulled him inside, closing behind him.

*Inside the Box*

Panting heavily, Naruto looked around at where he was, only seeing he was in what looked like a seemingly endless, swirling black and purple void. Yet despite there not being any solid floor, he was still able to stand up.

'This thing is supposed to grant wishes?!' Naruto thought, wondering why anyone would think something like this is meant to grant wishes.

'I need to get out of here!' Thought Naruto, having assumed when he was sacrificed to the Box he would die after going inside.

If that wasn't the case, then he wasn't going to spend the rest of his life stuck in here, if he would even still die or be trapped for eternity.

'But how do I get out here?! I still have this damn Jutsu on and I doubt there's any Natural Energy in here, I can absorb! So how?!' Naruto thought, trying to think of a way he can break free of the Box.

"No one knows for sure if it's true. But they say during the era of the Sage of Six Paths, Kusagakure came close to conquering the world after opening the Box."

Naruto's eyes widened at remembering Ryūzetsu's words, that the Box can grant the wish of whoever opens it. Before his expression softens at thinking of the white-haired girl, the only person left who tried helping him, saving his life even if it went against her mission. While he wasn't sure what exactly they were, Naruto knew he cared about her and was willing to let himself be beaten senseless for two years and sacrificed to the Box just so she wouldn't die.

And how does he repay her, by doing nothing to destroy the Box and letting Mui open it, while she's trapped in a coma.

'I'm sorry Ryūzetsu, I should've…done something.' Thought Naruto, not doubting she'd have still wanted him to try and destroy the Box, even if it meant she would die.

"There's nothing wrong with being selfish and focusing on your own wants and desires, Naruto."

'Does that make me selfish? Not wanting to lose the only person I have left? To not want her to die?' Naruto thought, clenching his fists before glaring at his surroundings.

"If that makes me selfish then fine! HEY! Whatever you are, you damn Box! You're supposed to grant the wish of whoever opens you?! Well it was my Chakra that opened you, so you owe me a damn wish! And what I want is power! Power to get payback for being thrown in here and to be let out right now!" Naruto shouted, intending to get his own wish granted before Mui had the chance to use it.

Before the Uzumaki's eyes widened when he heard a loud screeching sound above him, making him look up only to be shocked at what he saw.

It was a massive demonic-looking creature, looking to be around the same size as Gamabunta, with it being headless with four bone tusks protruding from the mouth on its chest, and is covered in black feathers, including its bird-like wings emerging from its back. It also has a long thin tail, and its hands and feet are clawed, with it being sickly thin to the point where it looks almost bone-like with skin attached.

The creature screeched at Naruto before swinging its claws at him, making Naruto grit his teeth as it left a diagonal slash across his chest. Before he managed to grab the creatures claw before it could cut him any further, grunting as he held onto it as tightly as he could using all his strength.

"Stupid…monster! I'm not dying in this Box and you sure as hell aren't going to stop me from getting out!" Naruto shouted, glaring at the creature, just as he became engulfed in an aura of Chakra.

With the Chakra being blue as it swirled around the Uzumaki, before it began condensing around him and turning a yellow color. Before darkening into a dark magenta color with arcs of dark energy shooting off of it as it fully surrounded Naruto. The creature recoiled at the feeling of the dark Chakra now surrounding Naruto.

Before it soon dispersed, revealing Naruto's changed appearance with his hair now being jet-black and his eyes were now a dark crimson color that began glowing sinisterly. While around his eyes and the sides of his face were purple markings that covered his whisker marks.

Though it didn't stop there as the creature let out a cry as it was broken down and absorbed into Naruto, as his clothes began changing into something else.

Until soon Naruto was now wearing a skin-tight black body suit with a yellow ring and black circle that had a white diagonal scar going through it on the center of his chest, with two purple triangles on top of the circle resembling horns and crooked purple lines extending down his body and legs, golden shoulder pads, black boots with large gold bracers around his lower legs, white gloves with black and gold bracers around his arms as well, which also had small blade-like protrusions coming out the back, along with metal claws extending from his boots and the fingers of his gloves.

While on his head was a black helmet with a blue cross-shaped jewel on his forehead, silver pieces attached to the sides, and large straight fin-like protrusions that extended over his face and over his head, while splitting at the bottom showing a second pair of smaller fins.

*Mindscape*

Meanwhile, Naruto's entire mindscape was shaking as it was being engulfed in the dark magenta energy as the rest of his body had been. With the Kyūbi looking around, panicking and fearing for its life at what was happening around it. Before looking to the only other inhabitant of Naruto's mindscape as they were laughing at what was happening.

"Why are you laughing?! If something isn't done, we'll both disappear!" Kyūbi shouted, glaring at Yami Naruto, the manifestation of all Naruto's suppressed negative emotions and feelings.

"I know and that's why I'm laughing! For King to finally show some backbone and embrace his darkness rather than keeping it suppressed!" Said Yami, enjoying this turn of events and what's happening.

"That also means you won't exist anymore if he's no longer suppressing his darkness into you!" Retorted Kyūbi, reminding him that if Naruto no longer suppresses his darkness, then Yami will no longer exist.

"I'll still exist, because now we'll finally be a complete being! No darkness, no light, only the real Naruto Uzumaki!" Yami said, laughing madly as before long, he and Kyūbi were engulfed in the energy and were assimilated into the newly transformed Naruto.

*Real World*

Back outside, the Box of Ultimate Bliss had risen up in the yard if the Hōzuki Castle, getting everyone's attention at the sight of the Box emerging from the ground. While the members of the Seeds of Grass Faction watched in eager excitement at the sight.

"Magnificent." Said one of the Seeds, pleased at the sight of the Box, knowing soon their wish will be fulfilled.

"At last our wish will be fulfilled." Another said, eager that Kusagakure will soon be the strongest village in the world.

"Mui! Where's Mui? The Box will only respond to the gatekeeper." Said another member, looking for where Mui is, since only he can have the Box grant their wish.

"There he is! Hurry Mui, come and wish for the revival of Kusagakure! It's what your son would've wanted!" Said the fourth member when they saw Mui exiting the prison.

Mui didn't even glance at his allies as he approached the Box, making a handsign and holding his hands out to the Box.

"It is time. Hear me Box of Ultimate Bliss! Open, I command you! Grant me this one wish" Mui said as tears streamed down his face.

"Let me see my son, Muku! Box of Ultimate Bliss, grant me this wish, I command you!" Cried Mui, with the Box glowing brightly.

"Mui! What have you done?!" Demanded one of the Seeds, not believing he'd use the wish for something so trivial.

"Have you gone mad, Mui?!" Another said, angered that he'd give up their chance to restore Kusagakure to its former glory.

"I banished Kusagakure from my heart long ago, twelve years ago! On the day I lost Muku!" Mui shouted, having cast aside Kusagakure and his allies desires, only caring to see his son again.

Angered at his betrayal, the Seeds moved to attack Mui, only to be stopped when multiple chains shot out towards them, forcing them back. Only to be surprised when they saw a second Mui landing beside the first.

"Why are you here? I don't recall asking for your help." Said Mui, glancing at his counterpart.

"Oh shut up. Frankly, I was looking forward to killing you, myself!" The second Mui retorted before they were engulfed in a cloud of smoke, revealing it was just a transformation.

"You! Kazan of a Hundred Transformations?! Impossible, we watched you die!" A Seed said in disbelief that Kazan was still alive, none of them knowing Mui saved him.

"Hn! Mui, you bastard, if it wasn't for you I would be reunited with my son in the afterlife! You're fools if you think you can toy with Kazan of a Hundred Transformations!" Said Kazan, intending to get revenge on the Seeds for betraying him and Mui for keeping him from joining his son.

"Mui, you traitor! Is this what you were planning all along, you treacherous dog?!" Shouted a Seed, wondering if Mui always planned this.

"You're one to talk about treachery!" Kazan retorted as he charged at the Seeds.

Only for everyone to suddenly freeze when the Box began letting out a sound, making them look at it and saw the Box was beginning to shake. Before their eyes widened when cracks started appearing on it, releasing arcs of dark purple and black energy, with the cracks getting bigger with each second.

"NO!" Mui shouted in horror at seeing the Box was breaking before without warning the Box exploded, releasing a massive blast of Chakra.

*With Allied Shinobi Forces*

Meanwhile off the coast of Hōzuki Castle were dozens of boats filled with Konoha and Kumo Ninja, all of them getting antsy as they waited for the signal from the spy in the castle.

"Why has it taken so long?" Tsunade demanded looking at A, wanting to know why it's taken two years for Maroi to give the signal to attack.

"I don't know! We haven't been able to get another Ninja into Blood Prison since they've tightened their security! We should've just attacked when a month passed and nothing happened!" Said A with a scowl, not liking that they didn't know what's been happening in Hōzuki Castle.

"Wonderful idea, attack a prison that's meant to be neutral among the nations and villages for no reason. You might as well just hand the Box over to the Akatsuki." Ōnoki said, looking at A in annoyance, knowing they can't just attack Hōzuki Castle until the Box has appeared.

With them having been lucky to keep the operation a secret for this long, knowing if the Akatsuki learned about the Box of Ultimate Bliss, they'd try getting it themselves as an alternative means of reviving the Jūbi. Something the Allied Shinobi Forces all agreed couldn't happen. Leading to the joint mission to send in a Jinchūriki to be used to open the Box, giving them a chance to destroy it before it fell into the Akatsuki's hands. And since they only had two Jinchūriki, with Killer B not being a possible candidate due to his loyalty to his brother and village, it left Naruto as the only option. With him having the freedom and abilities, that it would be believable for him to commit the crimes needed to be sent to Blood Prison.

Unfortunately, the mission had been kept secret from Naruto, knowing it needed to be convincing that everyone believed he was a criminal and that he had no idea about the mission.

"At this point it doesn't matter! It's a miracle the Akatsuki hasn't made a move to attack Hōzuki Castle to capture Naruto! The fact he's been in their for two years now is even worse, even if Maroi eventually gives the signal he'll be too weak to help destroy the Box!" Tsunade said, not liking that Naruto's been stuck in there for two years, with no way of knowing if he's alright.

"We can't keep waiting. If we don't get the signal in the next week, then we atta-" Said Tsunade, refusing to keep waiting for another year to pass by when they still had the Akatsuki to deal with.

Though before she could finish, the boats were all rocked by a sudden explosion coming from Hōzuki Castle, much to their shock.

"Is that supposed to be the signal?!" Ōnoki asked, having thought the signal would be a bolt of lightning, not an explosion.

"It is now! Everyone to Hōzuki Castle, now!" Shouted A, as the boats began moving towards Blood Prison.

*Hōzuki Castle*

Back at Hōzuki Castle the explosion began dying down, revealing most of the castle had been destroyed by it, while over half of the prisoners and guards were killed by the blast. While those still alive were critically injured and unable to move.

With Mui being alive, falling to his knees in despair at the sight of the Box having been destroyed.

'Muku…I'm sorry…' Mui thought, gritting his teeth.

"Muku!" Mui cried that he's lost the chance to ever see his son again.

"Don't worry, you'll be joining him soon." Said someone, getting Mui's attention as he saw someone emerging from where the Box once was.

His eyes widening at seeing the transformed Naruto, being able to tell who it was despite how different he now looked.

"Uzumaki." Muttered Mui, clenching his fists at seeing he's somehow still alive.

"We have a score to settle, Mui." Naruto said, leaping at Mui to finish him for good.

"No you don't brat! I'll be the only who has the satisfaction of killing-" Kazan said, rushing to defend Mui, refusing to let anyone else kill him.

Only for Kazan's eyes to widen in shock and pain when Naruto suddenly appeared right in front of him, narrowing his eyes at the man while his hand was stabbed through Kazan's abdomen.

"So, you're the one who was wearing my face. Then you get to suffer for it." Said Naruto before grabbing Kazan's head and tearing his body in half at the waist.

Tossing both halves of Kazan aside, Naruto dived down towards Mui, smashing his fist into Mui's head sending him crashing into the ground. With Mui gasping in pain at the impact and feeling his Chakra suddenly being absorbed into Naruto. The whiskered ravenette frowned as he felt he was absorbing Mui's Chakra, and more than that, now feeling new knowledge enter his mind.

"Interesting. Heavenly Prison Flame Sword." Naruto said, holding his arm out as flames covered his hand before extending out into a sword, smirking wickedly at his new Jutsu.

"Very nice." Said Naruto before impaling Mui with his Flame Sword, making him scream in agony as he burst into flames.

Naruto dispersed the Jutsu once he was sure Mui was dead, feeling the Heavenly Prison on him finally break, much to his relief at access his Chakra again.

'I feel strong…really strong. And more than that, it feels like I'm in Sage Mode.' Thought Naruto, curious at why it seemed he's in Sage Mode, despite not absorbing any Natural Energy, before his eyes widened.

'Ryūzetsu!' Naruto thought in worry as he quickly began sensing where she was, feeling relieved when he could still sense her Chakra Signature down below.

Going over to the remains of the Box of Ultimate Bliss, Naruto grabbed it and tossed it aside, showing the hole it emerged from. Though before he could go down and get Ryūzetsu, he stopped and looked over his shoulder at sensing several signatures getting close. Clenching his fists when Tsunade, A, Ōnoki, and several Konoha and Kumo Ninja appeared.

Seeing all the Rookies were present, along with Kakashi and Gai, while from Kumo he recognized A's bodyguards from the Land of Iron, Darui and C along with the Hachibi Jinchūriki, Killer B.

'How annoying.' Naruto thought, wanting to just get Ryūzetsu so they can leave, but now had to deal with all of them.

"Who are you?! What have you done with the Box?!" A demanded, glaring at the Uzumaki, with Naruto raising a brow before realizing they likely didn't recognize him.

Ignoring the Raikage, Naruto created a Shadow Clone.

"Go get Ryūzetsu and get her somewhere safe, I'll be along shortly." Said Naruto, wanting to make sure nothing happened to Ryūzetsu during the fight.

"On it." The clone said, jumping into the hole to retrieve the white-haired Anbu.

"Hey! Who are you?!" Yelled Tsunade, narrowing her eyes at the stranger while Naruto fully turned towards them.

"My name…is Bass." Naruto said after a few moments, deciding to save the surprise of who he is for later, wanting to savor their reactions when they learn who he is.

"And where is the Box of Ultimate Bliss?!" Ōnoki demanded, wanting to know where the Box was to destroy it.

Raising a brow, Naruto glanced down at the remains of the Box before kicking one of the pieces over to them, much to their shock.

"I destroyed it after I broke free." Replied Naruto, making them narrow their eyes at him.

"What do you mean broke free? You were in the Box?" Said A, having not heard anything about their being a person in the Box.

"I was, but now I'm free. Let me guess, you believed opening the Box would grant you a wish? Just like poor Mui, there." Naruto said, motioning to Mui's charred corpse with the Ninja tensing at the sight.

"If the Box didn't grant a wish, then what was it?!" Kakashi asked, looking at "Bass" warily while the whiskered ravenette chuckled darkly.

"Isn't it obvious? The Box was my prison, but thanks to the Chakra from that boy Mui gave to it, I'm free once again and now…no one can stop me." Said Naruto, which only made them tense further, especially the Konoha Ninja.

"What boy?! Where's Naruto Uzumaki?!" Tsunade demanded while glaring at "Bass", worried that they were too late if Mui sacrificed him to the Box.

"He's gone, Mui sacrificed him to the Box in order to open it. And he has my thanks for his sacrifice, the power he had was all that I needed to finally escape that cursed prison." Naruto said, much to the Konoha Ninja's horror.

"No! That can't be true, you're lying! Naruto can't be…" Said Sakura, refusing to believe her teammate is dead.

"Strange that you care for someone you condemned to this hellish prison. Why is that?" Questioned Naruto, wondering why now it seems they believe he's innocent after two years of hell.

"It was a mission! He was only sent here to destroy the Box, because only he could! We knew he was innocent, but we couldn't tell him about the mission as it needed to be convincing!" Tsunade said, making Naruto clench his fists and scoff.

"And I take it the reason is because he was a Jinchūriki." Stated Naruto upon seeing that it came back to the fact he's a Jinchūriki, just like it always did.

As well as showing how that they didn't truly trust and believe in him, if they couldn't trust him with the knowledge that this was all just a mission.

"Shame he died, believing everyone thought he was guilty." Naruto said with a mocking smile, angering the Konoha Ninja.

"He's not dead! But you will be! CHA!" Yelled Sakura, jumping towards "Bass" with her fist pulled back.

Though the moment Sakura was close enough, Naruto spun around her fist and delivered a spin kick to the pinkette's back, sending her crashing into a wall. Before backflipping over Neji when the Hyūga tried striking his Tenketsu.

"Air Burst." Said Naruto, putting his hand on Neji's back unleashing a powerful green shot, sending Neji flying through the air.

"You're dead! Elbow!" A shouted, covering himself in his Lightning Style Armor, appearing in front of "Bass" in a burst of speed.

Only to be shocked when "Bass" vanished from sight just before he struck him with his elbow, with the Uzumaki reappearing behind the Raikage with his arm held out.

"How about we give you matching arms? Dark Arm Blade." Naruto said, forming a sword of dark energy and brought it down to remove A's arm.

"Yo, don't think you'll be touching my bro as long me and Eight-o are here, fool, ya fool! Lightning Style: Lariat!" Said B, rushing forward with his arm held out to smash into Bass.

Glancing at the Jinchūriki, Naruto quickly turned and swung his Dark Sword at B, only to suddenly find his movements restricted.

"Shadow Possession Jutsu, success!" Shikamaru said, having moved close enough to capture "Bass" with his shadow.

"Nice work, kid! Now let's finish it, B! Lightning Style: Lariat!" Said A, jumping back before rushing Naruto along with B to cut take his head off with their Double Lariat.

Glancing between the brothers coming at him, Naruto flared his Chakra, making Shikamaru grit his teeth as his shadow began wavering. With it wavering enough to let Naruto force his body to move and hold his arms out towards A and B.

"Hell's Rolling!" Naruto said, creating two discs of darkness and launched them at the Raikage and Jinchūriki.

With neither of them able to stop in time to avoid them, with A being shocked when the disc passed through his Lightning Armor, gritting his teeth as the disc slashed him across the chest. While B quickly summoned Gyūki's tentacles to shield him, only for the disc to cut through them with ease, leaving a cut across his side.

"Raikage-sama, B-sama! Lightning Style: Flash Pillar!" C said going through handsigns, discharging electricity from his body creating a bright flash of light from his body.

Naruto grunted at the bright light, holding a hand up in front of his face to block it while Darui quickly moved behind him, going through handsigns.

"Lightning Style: Black Lightning!" Said Darui, shooting a bolt of black lightning at the whiskered ravenette's back.

Only for Naruto to vanish from sight before Darui grunted when he appeared behind him and wrapped an arm around his neck, making the Kumo Ninja gasp at feeling his Chakra being absorbed.

"Thanks for the new power. Lightning Style: Black Lightning" Said Naruto, firing a bolt of black lightning straight through Darui's back, much to everyone's shock and the Kumo Ninja's anger.

"You bastard! You'll pay! Lightning Style: Electromagnetic Murder!" C shouted, going through handsigns before shooting a wave of electricity at "Bass", with it tearing through the ground as it rushed at him.

Before C gasped in agony when a hand burst out of his chest, while the Naruto in front of him vanished in a puff of smoke, as the real one appeared behind.

"If I'm a dog, then you're dog food." Naruto whispered in C's ears, making the Ninja's eyes widen in recognition before he fell to the ground dead.

"Fang Over Fang!" Kiba said as he and Akamaru rushed at "Bass", spinning around at high-speeds to tear through him.

"Air Burst." Said Naruto, jumping back and firing a green shot at the duo with it exploding on contact and sending them skidding across the ground.

With Naruto then sidestepping Hinata when she rushed him to strike his Tenketsu, bringing his knee up into the Hyūga's stomach, making her double over gagging. Before being silenced when he delivered a spin kick that sent her crashing into a wall.

"None of you seem to get it, your attacks will never touch me." Naruto stated, being able to sense the bloodlust, fear and all their negative emotions, telling him where they are when they're attacking.

"Then try dodging this!" Yelled Tsunade raising her first before bringing it down onto the ground, releasing a shockwave towards "Bass" as the ground split open underneath him.

Though the whiskered ravenette jumped up into the air before it could reach him, only for his eyes to widen when Gai appeared behind him and wrapped his arms around him.

"Now take this! Gate of Opening, open! Primary Lotus!" Gai said opening the first gate before he began spinning him and "Bass" around in the air towards the ground.

Jumping away at the last moment, Gai skidded back as "Bass" crashed into the ground before Tsunade jumped into the air above him with her fist pulled back. The Godaime gave a shout as she thrust her fist down towards "Bass", unleashing a shockwave on impact and kicking him a cloud of dust.

But when the dust cleared, everyone was shocked to see "Bass" standing up and actually caught Tsunade's fist, while the ground beneath had cracked under the pressure. Before they were shocked further when his hand began glowing with dark Chakra, which solidified into the shape of a black beasts head with solid red, seven protrusions around it like a mane, and green dots that looked like stars

"Gospel Breath: Wind!" Naruto said as the beast head unleashed a blast of razor sharp wind that cut Tsunade all across her body as she was thrown back.

"Gospel Claw!" Said Naruto, summoning multiple large black beast claws that rained down on the Ninja, forcing them to move to avoid being crushed or impaled.

Before Naruto stopped the attack when he was suddenly surrounded by a clear white cube with a sphere in the center of it.

"Try surviving this brat! Dust Style: Detachment of the Primitive World Jutsu!" Ōnoki said, causing the sphere to detonate, engulfing "Bass" in an explosion within the cube.

"Ōnoki! We needed him alive to find where Naruto is!" Said Tsunade, glaring at the Tsuchikage for killing their only lead to Naruto, while Ōnoki scoffed and cancelled his Jutsu once he saw "Bass" was reduced to dust.

"In case you didn't hear him, the Uzumaki brat is dead after Mui fed him to the Box! And even if that wasn't the case, do you really think we would be able to let him live any longer?! Killing him now ensures he won't be a threat later!" Ōnoki retorted, knowing they needed to kill "Bass" now before he became an even bigger threat, especially with his apparent ability to steal Chakra and Jutsu.

"If he didn't, I would have! Two of my Ninja are now dead because of that bastard!" Said A, angered and saddened that C and Darui were now dead.

"I'll be killing a lot more soon enough." Naruto stated, much to everyone's shock that he was still alive.

Before they heard Killer B coughing and choking, making them look only to be horrified to see "Bass" with his hand stabbed through B's back. Their horror only growing when he ripped his hand out, holding B's heart in it, as the Hachibi Jinchūriki hit the ground.

"B!" A shouted in horror at seeing his brother be killed, only to gag in complete agony when "Bass" rushed him and slammed his arm into his neck, blowing open his chest as the Raikage was sent crashing into a wall.

"Sakura!" Yelled Tsunade as she and her apprentice rushed over to the Raikage, knowing they needed to work fast so he doesn't die.

"Dust Style-" Ōnoki said, preparing another Jutsu, only to gasp when "Bass" appeared in front of him before wrapping his hands around the Tsuchikage's neck, stopping him from speaking.

"You're right, I am a threat, I'm the last threat the Elemental Nations will ever experience once I'm through with it. Too bad you won't be alive to watch it all burn." Said Naruto, absorbing Ōnoki's Chakra and taking his Jinton before snapping his neck.

Dropping Ōnoki's body, Naruto looked down at the remaining Ninja as he floated in the air, seeing their looks of shock and horror.

"While I'd love the chance to kill the rest of you, consider your lives as payment. After all, it's thanks to all of you that I'm now free. You sent Naruto Uzumaki here without any knowledge that this was a mission for fear that him knowing wouldn't make it convincing enough, and it's thanks to his Chakra I've been released from that Box. Thank you, for sealing your fates." Naruto said, smirking cruelly as the horrifying realization dawned on them, that they were to blame for sending Naruto here in the first place.

"But consider us even, the next time we meet, it will be the last time any of you draw breath. Enjoy the time you have left before I return." Said Naruto before he immediately flew off, leaving the Ninja to realize the terrible mistake they've made.

*With Naruto*

After leaving Hōzuki Castle, Naruto flew straight towards where his clone had taken Ryūzetsu, soon arriving on a large island with what looked like the ruins of a village on it. Though the moment he was over the island, Naruto crashed down onto it, panting lightly.

'I used more Chakra than I thought.' Naruto thought, feeling a large portion of his Chakra was used during that fight, knowing while he might be stronger, what little control he had was shot to hell.

Not only that, but if it wasn't for the ability to sense bloodlust and negative emotions, then the fight likely would've been much harder.

'I'm going to need to do a lot of training to get used to my new power, and the new abilities I got from them.' Naruto thought, smirking since he now had Black Lightning and Ranton from Darui, Jinton and flight from Ōnoki, and the Hachibi's Chakra from B.

Even better that the Hidden Villages now didn't have any Jinchūriki with B dead, which also means the Akatsuki won't be getting their hands on it for a while. Not to mention the Raikage will be out of commission for a while and the Tsuchikage is now dead.

'Giving me plenty of time to train and get ready to finish them, that is if they don't end up wiping each other out first.' Thought Naruto as he got up before looking down at himself, watching his attire began changing into regular clothes.

With him now wearing black boots, black pants tucked into them with purple lines going down the sides, a purple shirt with mesh armor underneath, and a black jacket with gold and purple trimming. While the purple markings on his face receded, leaving his whisker marks fully visible again.

'I'm liking this new power more and more.' Naruto thought before he went to where his clone left Ryūzetsu, finding her in one of the still intact houses on a bed.

Looking at her, Naruto's expression softened as he sat down next to the white-haired girl, holding her hand and waited for her to wake up, knowing they'll have a lot to talk about.

So, what did you think, good. Yep we see this takes place during "Blood Prison", only with having taken a turn for the worse, with Naruto ending up trapped in Hōzuki Castle for two years, with Ryūzetsu as his only ally and friend left, after she saves his life and reveals who framed him, as well as trying to get through to him that being selfish with his own wants and desires is fine, leading to both of them being very "selfish" in what they desire at the moment.

Only to then see their plans being ruined, with Ryūzetsu killing Maroi while he's disguised as Mui, preventing him from giving the signal, while Naruto has the fight beaten out of him, unable to do anything else to make sure Ryūzetsu is safe. Before he's sacrificed to the Box of Ultimate Bliss, regaining some fight to take the wish for himself, merging with Satori, Yami and Kurama, letting him break free from the Box, killing Mui and Kazan once he was out.

Before the Ninja arrive, leading to Naruto learning the truth of why he was sent to Blood Prison, fueling his resentment that they didn't trust or believe in him to tell him about the mission. Leading to a fight where Naruto shows his new abilities, killing B, Darui, C and Ōnoki, while showing his Get Ability to take their Chakra and power for himself, while also taking down A before leaving, but not before giving a final warning to the Ninja that he'll be back for them.

Finally we see Naruto going to where his clone too Ryūzetsu, not knowing it's the ruins of Uzushiogakure, planning to train in his new abilities for when the time comes to get his revenge, along with knowing he'll have a lot to explain once Ryūzetsu wakes up. So, for those that like the story, thanks for your support. For those that don't or at least don't like the direction taken, you're more than welcomed to drop the story. But thanks for giving the story a chance anyway.

Storm out
