As the world in the stake of chaos, the church right now is moving to Naruto and Himea. The church right now searching for the two without rest. It was then Naruto and Himea goes to Wave and visiting Tazuna and his family. Inari seeing him acting like he was sugar high. He keeps grilling about Naruto latest heist and asked can he become his sidekick. Naruto just raise his hand and said "Sorry Inari but this job is to dangerous. If you're not careful then you might die."
Inari just sulk when he heard that. It was then someone banging on the door loudly. Tsunami go open and surprising there were many white shrouds man standing in front of the door. Tsunami then asked "Ano who are you looking for?"
"We looking for the heretic's name Naruto Uzumaki and Saito Himea." Said the leader of the group.
"I'm sorry?" Asked Tsunami looking confuse. The leader then shoves her aside marching in and said
"Naruto Uzumaki and Saito Himea. Come out so we can bring judgement to you heretic."
"Hey! What are you doing with my daughter?" Asked Tazuna rushing to Tsunami.
"Silence. You are harboring the heretic; just be glad we're not punishing you for that." Said the leader
"Wow the church are as ridiculous as I though huh?" Said Naruto with Himea leaning outside of the door.
"So you and that witch are here like the info said huh? Men surround them." Said the leader as the man surrounding Naruto and Himea. The leader and said
"Naruto Uzumaki and Saito Himea. You are charge for go against the will of god. Do not struggle as you can only redeem by your death." Said the leader.
"Bullshit. Naruto is the hero of this country. Who do you think you are to make that order?" Asked Tazuna with Wave civilian agreeing.
"It seems you don't know. Naruto Uzumaki had release the evilest being in the world, Saito Himea the ancient sorcerer and the destroyer of many race." Said the leader making Wave looks at Naruto worries.
"Oh so you dig up her past to enlarge your ego? What a pathetic attempt. She changed and had become the woman I love. If you want her, then you won't get out of this country alive." Said Naruto transform to his uniform guarding Himea. Tazuna quiet for a while and said
"… I don't know if this girl is as evil as you said, but if Naruto trust her with his life then so will we, right everyone?" The villagers shout out and start to throw rock on them.
"I see so you wish to side with the heretic huh? Men burn this village down." Said the leader.
"Himea just like always." Said Naruto as Himea casting a barrier surrounding them and the church agent. Naruto looks at Tazuna and said
"Tazuna-san, tell everyone to take shelter, this's gonna be a big fight." Tazuna nodded and tell everyone to take cover. Naruto looks at the church army and said
"Now then let's start the show, shall we? PERSONA." Naruto summons Black Frost and use "Madou" on them. The agent chanting spell blocking the attack barely. Naruto said "Hou? You block it huh? Then try this." Naruto uses "Mabufudyne" on them. The agent trying to block it but the ice already creeps up to them and froze them. "Try this next Yoshitsune." Naruto calls out Yoshitsune and uses "Heat wave" cleaving them. Only the leader manages to survive as he using his squat as a shield. Naruto then said "You use your own man as a shield and have some nerve to call us heretic."
"Be quiet heretic. The agent knows the risk, we willing to sacrificed to eliminated the heretic like you." Said the leader.
"Hou? You said you willing to sacrificed for greater good huh? Then it's your turn to be sacrificed." Said Naruto as he pulls out Hades and use "Snap" on the leader killing him. Himea senses there are no one left as she dropping down the barrier. Naruto turns to Tazuna and said "Tazuna-san I think my visit have to cut short since I need to teach those idiots a lesson."
"Are you gonna prepare your next heist Naruto-nii?" Asked Inari
"Hmm… Maybe." Said Naruto smiling. Himea then crouch down to Inari taking his hand and drawing rune on it.
"Inari this is the rune that will allow you to contact us. If those people came back and there is someone else come here making trouble then just think about us. The seal will allow you to call us." Said Himea rubbing his head smiling.
"Arigatou One-chan." Said Inari smiling as Tazuna and Wave villager smiling warmly.
"Now then Himea. Let's go." Said Naruto. Himea nodded and transport them away.
Meanwhile at Konoha, Tsunade was working with the paperwork and then Jiraiya voice rang out "Hey Hime still working hard huh?" Tsunade turn back and said
"Damn it Jiraiya don't do that."
"Sorry about that. Actually, my spy network just picks up something." Said Jiraiya
"Well then out with it. What is it?" Asked Tsunade
"My spy network at Wave spot Naruto." Said Jiraiya
"What!? Then why didn't you bring him back?" Asked Tsunade
"Actually this info came to me after he leave Wave. Now here the weird thing, it seems that there's some kind of cult after Naruto and his girl. Those guys call him a "Heretic" and that girl is actually an ancient sorcerer that end many live." Said Jiraiya
"Great of all the girl he chose, he chose someone has that kind of history? So did you find out about that cult or even the past of that girl?" Asked Tsunade
"About the cult, I did some digging and found out that they're quite influence in the outside world and there's also many shady rumor too. Some of them could easily rival Orochimaru. And about the girl, the info came from an unexpected source." Said Jiraiya
"Well where is it from and what is the info about her?" Asked Tsunade
"The info was from the Toad themselves. It seems she quite famous at the summons. The toad told me that the girl name is Saito Himea and she was the most powerful vampire sorcerer in the world. Before she had end the line of many race, some of them even have power that rival the Bijuu. You got to ask your own summons as well Hime. I still remember the horrified look from Pa." Said Jiraiya shudder at the though. If that girl is truly as strong then she might march to Konoha and sink it to the ground by herself. Tsunade just massage her forehead and said
"Does Naruto know about this?"
"Know about it? The brat declare that he will kill anyone who tried to kill that girl." Said Jiraiya
"… Find out where he is Jiraiya. Go and find him." Said Tsunade. Jiraiya just go out through the window and disappear.
Naruto and Himea now is inside the church. Himea maybe a vampire but she had no problem going in at all. The two sneaks in and encounter show angel. Naruto just call out Kurama and roast them. They go in the office and found some file on the church activity. It seems the church had enslaved the nun and secretly handling drug. Naruto find a secret door at the office, they then walk down and encounter few knights. The knight doesn't have much challenge but there's something about them. Naruto then heard voice "Ah ah ah." They then go and check to see the sight disgust them. It seems this cell is where the nuns serving the VIP. That bastard leading false hope and enslaved them. He just doesn't get it, why didn't the HQ do something about this? Naruto and Himea just walk in deeper finding the Pope sitting on his makeshift throne. They hide in the balcony and sneak inside the vault as they though it was. And true it is, they are many gold, treasure in here probably looting from those greedy VIP. But the shock of all is a certain sword in the middle of the room.
"Wait the fucking minutes? What's that sword doing here?" Asked Kurama in shock
"You know that sword?" Asked Naruto
"Yeah but It was lost decade ago." Said Kurama
"So can you tell us what is it?" Asked Naruto
"That sword was call "the sword of promise victory". It had in the hand of a king that become the legend. The sword name is EXCALIBUR and the sheath also is the genuine Avalon." Said Himea
"What she said so there's the next question? What is it doing here?" Asked Kurama
"That's right. I remember before when I visit the Pendragon, the sword already gone since then. No one in the family manage to find it. Naruto-kun, how about using this as your next heist?" Asked Himea
"Are you sure since if we steal it then the Pendragon will after our ass." Said Naruto
"Oh don't worry remember what I said before that I visited them? Those Pendragon want to kill me for the fame so I… erased them all." Said Himea
"… Really? I know you're powerful but this is the Pendragon after all? Asked Kurama
"The EXCALIBUR was the only strongest treasure. Clarent was missing beforehand and the only treasure left is the spear. So it's not that hard to eliminated them." Said Himea
"But still, how did the church get their hand on this? Did they bribe someone in the Pendragon or something?" Asked Kurama
"Saa who know what's going on in that household? The council and the royal are so arrogant so I won't surprise that there is some resentment in that family." Said Himea
"Alright then since everyone agree to this then this will be our next target." Said Naruto pointing at the sword. Naruto continues "Okay then let's get out of here."
At the church hallway, prints were put on the wall. The print is like this
To the Pope that harbor the sins
At night when the clock strike 10
We will steal the sword and the sheath
That shine brightly as the star
Sign
Kaitou Joker
The Pope looking at the print and tear it apart angrily. He though "That phantom thieve, he knows. Very well then, come and try to steal it." The Pope contacting the ninja for guarding.
At Kumo the Raikage receiving the request, slam his hand down to the table cracking it. He shouts out "Mabui cancel all my plan and calling my brother in here. I have a thief to hunt down." After dragging Bee to the Raikage, the two and a two there-man squat follow the Raikage as they march straight to the church.
At Konoha Tsunade calling the Konoha 10 and said "Listen all of you, I'll assign you all to a mission. As you know Naruto had sending out the calling card to the church. Naruto target this time is this." Tsunade showing the footage send via mail. "This is the legendary weapon the EXCALIBUR." The team feeling their breath taken because how beautiful the sword is. Tenten just drooling at the sword making Tsunade worry that she might steal it herself. Tsunade cough catching their attention "Ahem anyway you all were assign with the Raikage to catch Naruto since he is from your generation as well." Tsunade said as she though it wouldn't help much since Naruto skills is completely different from before. Shino then said
"Um Hokage-sama when will we start?"
"You will go pack up and go immediately. The times is tonight so pick up your pace and go." Said Tsunade dismiss them. After that Jiraiya come in
"So Hime what do you think of their chance of success?" Asked Jiraiya
"Probably quite low since this is Naruto we talking about. I can only hope that Naruto won't hurt them much." Said Tsunade. She then looks at Jiraiya and said "You will go as well Jiraiya. You are our best bet for him." Jiraiya nodded and shunshin.
Evening 1 hour left, the reporter said "Good evening to you all. Tonight is another heist of the famous Joker. As you can see, the entire place fill with people from all over the Elemental Nation. Raikage personal ANBU also patrolling the place along with Konoha ninja. Now is 1 hours until the time. Will Joker be able to steal the church treasure, the legendary weapon or is this will be Joker epic fail?"
Shikamaru now with the Raikage was forming a plan to capture Joker hours ago. He said "All right that's the plan. Chouji you will stand in front of the door guarding it and put on the mask in case Joker try to knock you out. Ino and Hinata you will work with C-san to keep an eye to the treasure. Kiba and Neji you'll join with the ANBU to sniff out the smell and Neji will use Byakugan to see if there's anyone Joker disguise as. Shino you'll send out the Kikaichu to the sky. If Joker trying to escape through air we will be ready. Tenten will be at the gate for checking to see if anyone bring in suspicious thing. Sakura you will stay with me since with your medic skills, you can't be allowed to take out first. Now is there anymore question?" Seeing none he said "Dismiss and good luck all of you."
Right now only three minutes left, they held their breath wait and wait. Naruto just smiling from his hiding spot and said "All right Himea. Which one is my opponent?"
Himea point out the ANBU in the crown. Naruto then use "Wage War" on the specific ANBU when the clock strike ten. The ANBU then shout out "RARRR." And start attacking randomly. Kiba and Neji seeing that try to stop them but when the ANBU see them they instantly charge at the two. The ANBU start to charging at the gate with Lee and Tenten put a stop to them. Seeing Lee and Tenten still not moving out of the door Naruto use "Dazzle" on Lee making him dizzy or more precisely drunk. Drunken Lee start to attack his teammate outside causing disturb. Tenten had no choice but to dash outside and stopping Lee. Naruto walks in and slide in a playing card under the door Chouji guarding. After that Naruto start to uses "Pulinpa" on Chouji messing his sense. Chouji then suddenly felt hungry and was about to open the bag of chips then he throwing the chip out of the window. Chouji was about to dive out but listening to Shikamaru word and stay there. After a while, all the chips he takes out was throw outside, seeing Chouji starting to lose it Naruto then active the seal in the playing card before, when Chouji dive out of the window the bug got in the treasure room with Naruto following them and put up the playing card in a certain place. Ino, Hinata and C unknown just fine it normally while Naruto just casually take the treasure and heading up to the roof. Shino right now confuse as he can't control his bug at all. Shikamaru saw the disturbance outside and asked "Guy what happen outside?"
"I don't know Shikamaru, the ANBU just went nut and Lee was drunk rampaging the place. We're trying to hold them back." Said Neji as holding Lee back. Shikamaru was racking his brain answer then Ino calling him
"Shikamaru, Chouji just outside of the window and he… devouring the snack he hadn't eat for day."
"Wait what about the treasure?" Asked Shikamaru
"Don't worry the treasure still there I still can sense it." Said Ino. Shikamaru face like he was hit by lightning
"Ino stay right there and keep an eye on it." Said Shikamaru and turning to the Raikage "Raikage-sama we need to go to the treasure room now." The Raikage nodded and carrying Shikamaru on his shoulder as he dashes off to the room. To their shock, in place of the treasure was the Kikaichu who was stuck on something. The two come closers and check to see there was a treasure shape playing card with word "Thank you for the treasure. Kaitou Joker." The Raikage blood boiling up as he dashes outside punch the ANBU and Lee knock them down. Shikamaru after fetch Chouji call Sakura to heal them. Then suddenly Shino came flying down to the Raikage. The Raikage managed to catch him as he and the other looking up saw Naruto as Naruto said
"Thank you, ladies and gentlemen, for being here. As you can see, I have taking the treasure and now I shall disappear." Said Naruto as A speed up to him and said
"You are going nowhere brat. It's time I pay you back for the previous heist." Said A as the other also climb up surrounding Naruto.
"Well then since you all here. LET THE SHOW… BEGIN." Said Naruto as Himea covering the place with barrier signaling the battle begun.
