Chapter Five: I Said Take your Hands Off Her!
So I gave Naruto both a rash Kamina ego while giving his a Simon state of mind. They're both badass if you asked me, but Hinata seeing Sasuke as a brother figure that will be explained in this chapter as well.
Oh sure it isn't natural neither is my state of mind while writing. But Hinata is going to see Kiba in the same way. And the fact that I hadn't updated in a while is evident too. Sorry running a social life collage and writing a book is hard as it stands, but I digress. Well got to get this chapter started so I can piss you off with wealthy wastes of human space.
Sorry for taking so long to update though. My computer crashed need to get it fixed so I am using my living room computer, which is not mine.
Check out my other stories as well.
Starts Now!
He almost could not believe his ears, and it all made sense to him. Itachi was just as hurt with his parent's death as he was, but he believed that is was his fault as well. Sasuke now knew why Itachi said he had killed everyone, to ensure Sasuke would end his life. But Sasuke was still confused, why would Itachi try and place all the blame on himself? Sasuke just didn't understand.
Naruto was rushed into Hiruzen's office immediately. Danzo, Homura, and Koharu were rushed to the interrogation department almost immediately making Hiruzen's job more chaotic then ever. But he did have to give Naruto credit, he had single handedly proved a man innocent by shedding light on a cover up on an illegal order place by two of. He now wondered more than ever if Naruto had planed this all out, or did he just rush into everything blindly while gaining the exact results he wanted. Kamina was actually great roll model for the boy than he had first anticipated.
"Ok Sasuke, you may come out now!" Hiruzen said making Naruto deadpan.
"Damn old man, you're always too perceptive!" Naruto said as Sasuke poofed into existence in front of Naruto.
"Naruto, did my brother really do everything you said he did?" Sasuke asked with a sadden expression on his face.
"Dude! You have no idea, when your name was brought up in a conversation he would always boast about how proud of you he was, and on top of that he was always saying he hoped to die by your hands." Naruto said patting Sasuke on the shoulder.
"I'm sure Itachi loved you very much Sasuke, Danzo had enlisted your brother in Root at a very young age!" Hiruzen stated making the boy feel a bit better about himself. "After our investigation is over I'm sure you'll be able to here it from him yourself!"
Hiruzen saw the boy's eyes light up instantly after hearing those words. The boy had visible confused about the whole ordeal, and hearing more about his brother made his conception of the night was only making his head over compensate.
"Sasuke, you shouldn't think about it too much!" Naruto said making Sasuke look at him. "Besides, you have a soul sibling that should have your full attention now!"
'Naruto you may be the crazies bastard I know and you always know just what to say to make people feel better!' Sasuke thought to himself. He turned his attention to the Hokage as if his resolve had been completely restored.
"Hokage-sama, can we discuss that section fourteen I gave to you a while back?" Sasuke asked.
"Yes, I believe I have found a loophole for our dear little Hinata!" Hiruzen said. "I have a seen first hand Hiashi's mistreatment of Hinata, and it says in Konoha's clan protection acts that a clan head as long as he is backed by two or more clans may remove an heir to a clan under pretences of abuse or other extreme circumstances!"
Naruto turned to Sasuke and smiled like a fox. Sasuke was ecstatic as well, he could finally help the one person that had shown him kindness instead of pity. And Naruto had already stated he would help in any way he could, what could go wrong now. The only problem now was Naruto wasn't part of a clan, so Kiba was his only back up. Kiba wasn't the brightest person in the world, and he didn't exactly know the meaning of the word tact.
"Hey old man, I through this together last night, I believe it will be better than me explaining the extent of my abilities!" Naruto stated handing Hiruzen a brown formal looking scroll. "I knew that today may get a bit out of hand so I wrote everything down in there."
"Yes Naruto, I believe that was a very smart idea!" Hiruzen said looking over the information with extreme interest. "Naruto, all of this is amazing all of this is enough to fortify your Kekkei Genkai into the clan registry act!"
"Just who the hell do you think I am? I'm Naruto Uzumaki co-leader of Team Dai-Gurren baby!" Naruto said with pride pointing to the symbol on his coat.
"Naruto, there is one thing that concerns me, we can't name your clan based on your last name due to Kamina!" Hiruzen stated fearing more paperwork. "So we would need a clan name based on what your abilities can produce."
"Tengen Toppa it is!" Naruto said looking around the room. "Old man this paperwork is really stacking up, why not make a Kage Bunshin to help pick up the slack?" Naruto asked curiously.
It was to then that Hiruzen's face met the wood of his desk. He had tussled with paperwork for years now, he was even known for being a legend on the battlefield as 'The Professor'! But never in all his years had, he thought of using the Kage Bunshin technique as a shortcut for productivity. Time after time today Naruto had shook the very democracy of Konoha for the better, if he wasn't careful Naruto just make a better Kage than he was.
"Naruto my boy that's ingénues!" Hiruzen said giving Naruto a hug. "I'll be able to lighten my workload tenfold now, is there anyway that I can thank you for your wonderful idea?"
"How about a map of the Hyuga clan compound?" Naruto asked nonchalantly.
"Why would you need a ma…?" Hiruzen cut himself off before he could finite his sentence. "Naruto your not planning on doing anything crazy are you?"
"Depends on what your definition of crazy is." Naruto replied.
"Alright dobe I think he gets the picture!" Sasuke said with a small sigh.
"Naruto, I applaud your enthusiasm, but you must understand that there are just some things that require subtlety!"
"Yeah, yeah I get it and I don't care I'm still going to give the Hyuga's a wake up call that will give the entire village a good laugh for years to come!"
"I guess I can't stop you." Hiruzen said walking over to a small filing cabinet on the other side of the room. "But promise not to make a big scene, being Hokage is stressful enough."
"Well if I were to promise I'd be lying, but I will keep it subtle no explosives or laxatives!" Naruto said upon receiving a small scroll.
'Why doesn't that make me feel better?' Hiruzen asked himself before looking at the mountain of papers upon his desk. 'Now my old foe you shall meet your maker!'
Naruto and Sasuke quickly vacated the Hokage tower, Sasuke was still in a depressed slump. Naruto the feelings Sasuke must have been having were tough, but Naruto also knew the best thing for him right now was for Sasuke to sort it out himself. But Naruto also knew the best thing for depression was a big steaming bowl of Ramon. Sure it wasn't practical but it worked, and it always put you in a better mood afterwards.
"Hey Sasuke-teme I'll treat you to lunch since we missed out on it." Naruto said putting his hand on Sasuke's shoulder.
"Fine dobe as long as you're paying." Sasuke replied with a small smirk on his face.
Naruto could only smile as Sasuke antics, but he was happy that Sasuke was taking everything so well. Naruto continued to walk towards the business district of Konoha, with Sasuke not too far behind him. It had been so long since he had a decent bowl of ramen, and Ichiraku's was the target destination. He had missed Teuchi and Ayame ferociously, they were like family to him and he was sure that they thought the same. Before to long; the two adolescent teens stood in front of the old ramen bar that seemed to blend in with the surrounding area.
"Hey old man, Ayame-nee-chan I'm back, so how about a couple bowls of your famous ramen for me and my friend here!" Naruto practically shouted.
Ayame a young brunet girl, who looked to be no older than nineteen years of age, looked over the counter to see what the commotion was about. The person she saw there made her heart skip a beat in her chest. It had been three years since she last saw the blond, and due to the overwhelming rumors of his death she truly believed the boy to be dead. She never hated Naruto for what he contained; in fact, she was his biggest supporter. She first got to see the boy when he was four years old when he wondered in begging for something to eat. And from then on she saw him almost everyday as he was Ichiraku's biggest customer. And she practically saw him as a little brother.
Teuchi was another of Naruto's supporters, though not as vocal as most others. He had a business to run and couldn't always try and help the child. Nevertheless, after he initially meet the boy he did what he could to help the boy, which turned Naruto into their biggest customer. He was truly a pure soul in need of help, and they would allow him to hide in the kitchen if he was being chased by a mob. But now that he knew the boy was alive after disappearing for so long lifted a weight off of his heavy heart.
"NARUTO-KUN!" Ayame screamed as she leaped over the counter rapping her arms around the young blond. "YOUR ALIVE, HE'S ALIVE!"
Naruto was being flailed back and fourth by the brunet ramen stand girl. Naruto cursed his luck as he was slowly crushed for the second time in less than a week. He wondered if all the people he considered friends would do this to him in the near future. Blushing slightly after brushing the thought out of his mind.
"Ayame-nee-chan choking not breathing!" Naruto said faking that he was being suffocated.
"Sorry Naruto-kun, I thought you were really dead people have said so many things that it's hard to believe anything anymore." She said wiping the tears from her eyes.
"You're forgiven, now how about some ramen here!" Naruto said as he thrust his arm into the air.
"Sure thing Naruto!" Teuchi said with a large smile on his face. "I'll tell you Naruto, my business has been very slow since you disappeared but it's good to have my number one customer back."
"So what would you two like to order?" Ayame said taking her position behind the counter.
"I'll take two miso and one barbeque pork!" Replied Naruto.
"I guess I'll take the spicy chicken if that is ok." Replied Sasuke.
"I'll have your orders ready in a few moments!" Ayame said happily walking back into the kitchen.
Sasuke looked over to Naruto who was rustling through his cloak. After a few moments he pulled the same scroll that the Hokage had given him. He then proceeded to spread it out over the counter to show the entire layout of the Hyuga manner. In Sasuke's opinion, the estate was huge, not as big as the Uchiha estate but just as big nonetheless. He looked to Naruto again who had taken up a thinking pose, never in a million years had he thought the dobe would actually thinking ahead of time.
"Ok Sasuke, this place from the layout looks would be heavily here and here!" Naruto said tracing the areas of the main household with his finger. "And as far as I can see there is probably no way in on the surface!"
Sasuke had to give it to Naruto he knew what he was talking about. It made him wonder just what the hell had he been doing while he was away. And how much stronger had Naruto gotten in his time away and how much more did have to measure up too. But he also reflected on the price he had to pay to obtain such power, Sasuke had was in the middle of a turning point before Naruto had opened his eyes. Thinking back the night of the Uchiha massacre he could have sworn he Itachi crying. He didn't know what to believe his brothers words or his body language.
Semantics or not he knew Hinata who had became like a flesh and blood sister to him and he wasn't about to allow Hiashi Hyuga to destroy the kind sweet person Hinata was. But there was one thing he hadn't thought of until this very moment. Where would she be staying, she couldn't stay with him because it was too easy of a target for assassination attempts. The only other option was for her to stay with Naruto, but he didn't know if he would approve of it or not.
"Alright dobe you got me how are we going to get in to the place then?" Sasuke asked waiting for his self proclaimed surrogate brother to shock him again.
"Well the Hyuga's have a three hundred and sixty degree span of vision so the best point of entry is right under their feet!" Naruto said gaining a smirk from Sasuke.
"I get it since they can see all around them why would they look down!" Sasuke replied.
"Bingo my semi-emo friend!" An angry growl was the blonds only reply.
Not a moment later Ayame reappeared with the boy's orders. The brunet was a very attractive young woman to begin with, truth be told she was only fifteen years old given her older looking appearance. She had many admirers, but she just hadn't found the right guy yet. She was wondering if her luck had finally ran out until Naruto showed up today. The trouble making blond had always made things change directions sometimes for the better she wondered if her luck would do the same.
"Alright boys here you go...Naruto your not up to something are you?" Asked the suspicious waitress.
"Nope, not me my hands are clean…why are you looking at me like that…it was the pink elephants idea I tell you I'm innocent!" Naruto replied frantically flailing around in his seat.
Ayame couldn't help but laugh. 'He hasn't changed a bit!' she thought to herself.
"Ayame I need your help back here!" shouted the brunet's father.
She told the boys she would be back as she rushed to her father's aid. Sasuke saw this as his chance to bring up Hinata's living arrangements and he wasn't about to let this slip him bye. As he figured it was a way for Naruto and Hinata who could only benefit from it grow closer.
"So dobe, I want to ask you what should we do about Hinata's living arrangements, I mean we are bringing her with us right?"
"You know that's a good question, no offence you live alone and I've got my bro ...but your place would be too obvious for them should they come looking for her…so I guess she could live with me but I'll have to stop at a hardware store on the way home!" Naruto answer making the smirk on the brooding Uchiha to evolve into a grin.
"Alright so what the grand master plan tonight anyway?" Sasuke asked not knowing whether to expect the worst.
"I'll have the details set in stone by tonight, but first whats Hinata's favorite color?"
"Lavender I believe why?"
"Oh just wondering what color paint and bathroom tile to pick up!" Naruto replied.
This sent Sasuke's brain into orbit, just what the hell was this psychopathic blond buffoon going to do with that. It was Naruto so there was no more need to dwell upon that subject any longer as he turned his attention to his food. Taking a mouthful of the questionable noodle dish, he found the taste to be fantastic; he now understood why the dobe enjoyed ramen so much. Sasuke's eyes now lay upon the waitress who had just returned to the counter, he had not met her before but for the most part, she seemed nice enough.
"So I see you boys are enjoying your meal, so Naruto what happened to you three years ago?" Ayame asked with genuine concern.
Naruto's face darkened, he figured that he trusted Ayame, Teuchi, and Sasuke enough to tell them his tale minus a few details. Ayame was amazed to hear Naruto had a bloodline and was amazed at all the different places Naruto had traveled both her and Sasuke were a bit envious of him now. But all Naruto could do was grin innocently. Naruto and Sasuke soon finished their meals with Naruto graciously paying the tab left the stand in root for home.
"So is there anything I can do to help your master plan?" Sasuke asked.
"Well you could see if you can get anyone else we know in on the plan Kiba I believe would be of some help."
"I will see what I can do, but dobe I pray you know what you are doing!" Sasuke said as he parted paths with Naruto.
Naruto quickly made his way to the Forest of Death to make up plans for tonight. He arrived to find Kamina going through several bags of what looked to be cloths. This baffled Naruto, but at the same time he knew Kamina was always up to something so he let the thought slide. That was until he saw Kamina pull out a formal Kimono in his signature colors. And the Dai-Gurren insignia on the back was a dead give away.
"Hey bro what are you doing?" Asked Naruto.
"Oh, didn't hear you come in. I was invited to a formal dinner tonight by one of Konoha's most prestige's clans. Iruka helped me pick out a formal kimono. I just had them iron on the Dai-Gurren logo on the back it's totally awesome!" Kamina replied in his famous boisterous manner.
"Ok that's cool, what clan invited you?"
"The name slipped my mind but they had really white eyes, the one thing I didn't like was the stick stuck in the ass attitude they gave off though." Kamina finished as Naruto eyes widened.
"Bro you were invited to the Hyuga compound? WOW! This day just keeps getting better." Naruto said leaving Kamina in the dark like he was deaf and dumb (A/N: Excuse the analogy. I took sign language for three years I mean no disrespect against any of the deaf population!)
Kamina looked at Naruto with a sense of pride as whether Naruto knew it or not he was becoming a man that anyone would follow with pride. Kamina thought that next to Simon, he could see no one other person than Naruto to lead team Dai-Gurren into the future. With Naruto the possibilities were endless.
"Just what are you yammering on about Naruto?" Kamina asked.
"Well the head of the Hyuga clan has been treating his eldest daughter Hinata like crap and Sasuke is going to get a few other guys together and we're going to get her out of there while playing the biggest prank in the world on them!" Naruto said as a twinkle sparked in Kamina's eyes.
"Oh I get it, your rescuing a damsel in distress. Wait isn't Hinata the shy girl in the back of the classroom?" Naruto blushed at the damsel part but he could only nod to Kamina's question.
"Yeah so are you in or what? It would be nice to have a guy on the inside."
"You can count on me I'll make sure that they are too distracted to even notice you. By the way just what are your clones doing in that closed off room its kinda driving me crazy?"
"Well that's the thing. Hinata is kinda going to be living with us from now on so…surprise!"
"Hey its cool blood brother! At least I know they'll be someone to keep you in line!" Kamina laughed as he slapped Naruto on the back.
Naruto couldn't do much but blush at Kamina's antics. Sure he was still pretty young to understand what a relationship was but he understood what Kamina was insinuating. Kamina could only laugh louder as Naruto began to chase him while tossing kunai wildly at him. After pummeling Kamina into the ground, Naruto retired to his room.
Today was already hell as he sat and thought about it. He had uncovered a conspiracy in the Konoha council and cleared a supposed criminal's record on to of that renewed faith in a friend's younger brother. He had; had a rough day and yet it was far from over, but hopefully nothing else would go wrong today as he closed his eyes.
Naruto's eyes shot open as he looked up from his pillow. He had unintentionally fallen asleep and had no idea what how much time had passed since he had been asleep. His eyes wondered to the clock which displayed ten after six, he had been out for nearly five hours. But now was no time for freaking out, he had to come up with a plan and fast. That's when it hit him, the Hyuga were all about looks, well the ones who had a stick shoved up their asses at least. The way they dressed was to show they were superior to anyone else. The main branch dressed glamorously whiles the branch member's shinobi or not were portrayed as slaves.
Thinking about it made Naruto pissed, but for Hinata's sake he would let it go for now. He began to fill a bag with storage scroll before rushing to the exit of his make shift home. He had to get to the market place fast or he might not be able to get the supplies he needed. He was going to make the Hyuga's remember this for years. Making his way down from the Area forty-four he found his way to the market strip of Konoha.
He was relieved that the hardware store was still open. He immediately grabbed several dissolvable lime green dye packages as well as a carton of toilet cleaner and drain cleaner. Next on the list was supper clear plastic wrap, then supper strength super glue, and to wrap it all up he picked up was fixer a chemical used to develop film negatives. With this he could make the Hyuga's lives a living nightmare, well save the branch members of course. But he needed one thing to make the whole shebang perfect, and that was bubble gum pink hair dye. It may have not sounded like much, but with these items he could literally cause mass havoc among the Hyuga community.
Now it was all just a matter of time till the Hyuga got what they deserved. Naruto sprinted to the gathering spot Sasuke had picked and he saw two extra people he would have never expected. Shikamaru Nara and Choji Akimichi were there next to Sasuke and Kiba, he was happy to see them but he was so confused as to how Sasuke got them in on this. Naruto was not a pro at showing his gratitude, but he could not have been more grateful to them.
"Dobe, you're late!" Sasuke said aggressively.
"Yeah I know, I fell asleep and lost track of time but I have good news!" Naruto replied boisterously.
"Ok I'm interested, what good news could you have possibly brought with you?" Kiba asked getting a 'Yeah' bark from his pup Akamaru.
"Oh other than the fact my bro is going to be providing a distraction while we infiltrate the compound." Naruto replied leaving the rest of the group slack jawed.
"That's a big help. But it won't make getting in the place any easier!" Replied Shikamaru.
"Well getting us in is my job!" Stated Naruto as he pulled the map of the Hyuga compound out of his cloak and spreading it on the ground in front of them. "Ok here is how we're gonna do this, Kiba your going to go in the laundry room and poor a few drops of toilet cleaner and drain cleaner into the Hyuga detergent can you handle that?" Naruto asked.
"Yeah I can, but what will that do?" Kiba asked.
"Simple, it will cause all fabrics it touches to turn a light brown, but I warn you don't use more than a few drops." Naruto stated (A/N: Please don't try this. I know this from a horrible accident it my laundry room. A shelf broke and these three chemical spilled all over the floor I couldn't clean it fast enough before it exploded.)
"Ok, anything else?"
"If you see any laundry that is done throw it in the washer and add the mixture to any running machines!" Naruto finished looking over at Sasuke.
"Ok dobe what is my task?" Sasuke asked curiously.
"Your going to Hinata's room and your going to pack all her things in these storage scrolls, to activate them open them up over or under any object and add chakra to it that's all you have to do!" Naruto stated turning his attention to Shikamaru and Choji. "Before we get too far ahead I want to know what your reasons for joining us are?"
It was not that Naruto was suspicious of them, but he did not want anything to hinder the rescue mission. He like Shikamaru and Choji and also considered them friends due to the fact they never treated him like all the other kids did. Shikamaru was lazy but he never judged others by looks or ones habits. Choji was a warm-hearted soul all around as long as you did not take his chips without asking or called him fat.
"I heard what Hinata's dad is doing to her and I can't just lay down and let a girl like her be abused like that. It may be troublesome but I want to help in anyway I can." Shikamaru replied full heartedly unlike his usually lazy demeanor.
"I like Hinata, she's too nice to suffer like that and she helps me catch butterflies for my family's greenhouse and my collection, I'd try to help even if I wasn't asked because I consider her a friend." Choji replied looking serious.
"Good I'm glad your in, you to will work together going to all the bathrooms in the house. What you guys have to do is place one of these disks inside each shower head, the put a small amount of this hair dye in they're shampoo, and lastly you need to take this plastic wrap and glue it on the inside of the bowl so its blocked can you do this?" Naruto asked placing the items in front of them.
"You can count on us, but what are you going to do?" asked Shikamaru.
"I'm going to get Hinata out of there once we're in. if you're done questioning me how about we get this party started!" Naruto stated gripping his core drill.
The newly formed team set out for the Hyuga compound to rain down some much needed punishment on the over inflated egos of the so called all seeing clan. Naruto lead them silently in the darkness to the back of the Hyuga compound wall. Naruto was rigged for a moment, as he did not want to broadcast his abilities just yet. But in order to get himself and the others inside unseen he had to make a drill. Naruto turned his attention over to the rest of the group as he removed his core drill from his neck.
"Ok guys I'm sorry to be secretive at a time like this but I need you guys to turn a way for a second?" Naruto asked as the rest of the gang obliged his request.
Naruto placed his core drill into his chest, and with a powerful turn from him caused his spiral power to burst from his right arm. And from where his right hand should have been, was replaced by a large cone like drill that seemed to be made of some of the highest quality metal money could buy. The length and width of said drill were simply astounding for such a device that should not have existed in this kind of size measuring up to two feet and four inches in length and one foot and eight inches in width.
Sasuke, Kiba, Shikamaru, and Choji were frozen solid from the short release of energy. They had never felt anything like it before even though they had not been taught how to sense chakra yet. But this did not feel like chakra at all; it was too primordial and fierce, yet at the same time, it was also calm and soothing. However, it did not stop the hairs on the back of their necks from sticking up. And for Kiba he had to deal with Akamaru's claws digging into his head.
"Ok guys are you ready to go?" Naruto asked getting his teammates to look at him and his new appendage.
"Yeah!" they replied in unison.
The tool propelling itself from Naruto's hand fascinated the others. They had never seen anything like it and yet the person who had it did not surprise them. It was so like Naruto to think of using something that nobody would have ever thought of as a weapon that it seemed normal for him. They let they're thoughts die as they prepared for the next step of the plan. But what they were not expecting was the appendage from Naruto's hand to start spinning, or him shoving his drill into the ground.
Meanwhile inside the Hyuga clan's main house compound. Kamina had just arrived looking bored at the banquet as it looked like there was nothing interesting about the people who had invited them what so ever. It was a total snore fest as he wanted some excitement, but these stuck up snobs. But he knew one thing for sure he did not like Hiashi Hyuga one bit. His face alone caused anger to swell up in the pit of his stomach, but he chose to ignore it rather to piss the guy off. But so far it was just a bunch of rich snobs talking about how rich they were and how they abused wealth and power to torment people who were less fortunate then they.
But his blood was boiling at something else. Clinging to the obviously wealthy men were questionably dressed women who's eyes told a different story than the façade they were playing. He had seen the same look in Naruto's eyes once, the look of desperation that screamed just get through this and it'll all be okay. Kamina was a man who believed in honor weather it was man or woman. He hated people who used other for their own personal game, especially women as sex objects.
"So Kamina I hear you're from the newly founded Uzumaki clan along with the demo…little blond whelp, so please tell us about yourself?" Asked an elderly looking Hyuga.
"Yes I must second that request, we would all like to learn from the head of the newest clan in Konoha as it would only strengthen our relationship between our clans!" Replied Hiashi who made Kamina want to puke. "Daughter! Make yourself useful and pour our honored guest some sake!"
"Yes Mizu no Kuni would also like to know of Konoha's new rising clan." Said a young beautiful blond.
That's when Kamina spotted the young girl Naruto had mentioned. He remembered her face back before he and Naruto had left the village. She was a sweet innocent young girl who almost never spoke and if she did, it was a violent stutter but kind and caring at the same time. The blood inside Kamina's body began to boil as he saw the way the girls father was treating her. But that's when Kamina got the idea to kill two birds with one stone; he could make this young girl smile while making a ruckus as well.
"No, I would not like any sake, but I would like it if this precious young flower would grace me by sitting next to me as I tell my tale?" Kamina felt smug as those words escaped his mouth. "That is if her father has no objections?"
"Well I don't see why not, but as long as she doesn't do anything to disgrace our guest's it is more than fine." Kamina could see that Hiashi was trying to strike fear into the girl.
This pissed him off even more as he looked at this man. Even back in his dimension, Father Margin's ugly mug did not piss him off as much as Hiashi did. Kamina would just have to suffer through while making enough of a distraction for Naruto and hopefully never do this sort of thing again. It was only a few moments before Hinata took a seat next to Kamina, and he had to say the way she was dressed was too cute for words.
She was dressed in a formal pink kimono that was dawn with several different pictures of flowers that complimented the color. Her hair had been pulled up in the front right hand side by a lavender barrette. It made her look adorable he could snatch her up into ha hug. But Kamina wanted to retain his macho image so he let the urge die.
"Alright you want to know about me? Well here is the deal; I am not the head of the Uzumaki clan that would be my little brother Naruto. And second of all you are looking at the one and only Kamina Uzumaki leader of Team Dai-Gurren baby!" Kamina said standing up on one knee while putting on his signature glasses.
"But if you're not the head of your clan than how are you on the council?" Asked another elder Hyuga.
"I have a large number of powerful allies accost the great shinobi nation that has earned the right to be in Team Dai-Gurren. With they're influence and strength it makes my team a force to reckon with!" Kamina shouted in his over optimistic casual self.
In addition, to his surprise he had earned a giggle from Hinata who had a small blush on her face which she tried to hide behind her kimono sleeve. Kamina felt the urge to keep going on, but he needed to keep it at a dull roar as so he could build the suspense in the dead to the world room.
"Oh may I ask who all in this team Dai-Gurren has so much influence?" Asked a royally dressed man. Just by looking at him though, Kamina could tell he was trouble.
"How about the Kage's of both Kusagakure no Sato and Kanegakure no Sato on top of that the Daimyo of Tetsu no Kuni!" Kamina replied shocking the so-called prestige's clansmen.
"How in the world did you make friends with those tyrants? They are known as the most brutal madmen in the elemental nations!" Asked Hiashi.
"Well when you help end a civil war and rescue the daughter of a Kage it can't hurt your chances with getting on they're good side. The stories are pretty boring unless you'd like to hear them that is?" He asked receiving vicious nods from the people in the room. "Ok then but I'm going to be vague on certain things so don't call me stingy!"
Meanwhile with the rescue/prank crew. They had been amazed with Naruto's ability to dig so rapidly as in a matter of ten minutes they had made it clear over to the garden in the back of the main branch household. Sasuke had given each member of the crew a small two way head set. Naruto wanted to ask Sasuke where he had gotten them but he chose not to. With a silent gesture they all separated to complete, they're individual tasks.
Naruto was having the most trouble though as precious time passed. No matter where he looked, he could not find Hinata, it had gotten to the point where an entire hour had past, and the odds of getting caught sky rocketed. That was until he caught Kamina's booming voice echoing from down the hall. He had looked through a crack in the door to see Kamina telling one of they're past battles in a story format. That is when he spotted Hinata who had been sitting next to Kamina he could not help the blush that emerged on his face. She had looked beautiful in the kimono she was wearing he had thought to himself.
But he then spotted the Hyuga bodyguards surrounding the room. Naruto wanted to laugh as they had all gotten so into Kamina's story that they were not doing a very good job at their assigned tasks. Naruto decided he would radio in to his team as to see what the current status of they're operation was.
"This is Crimson Face calling Shadow and Bruiser! How are things on your end?"
"Just fine! One more to go then we're done." Replied Shikamaru.
"How are things on your end Raven?"
"Just finished up waiting for your orders!" Replied Sasuke.
"Kiba already finished so go meet him at the check point outside the compound, Hinata is in no position to be retrieved yet!" Naruto stated gritting his teeth.
He was frustrated as hell as he tried to contemplate on what to do next. Kamina had fulfilled his promos tenfold, but that wasn't going to get Hinata out of the Hyuga compound without being seen. Kamina had dramatically finished the she story of how they ended the civil war in Kusa. Ironically all they really did was released the leader of the village from a genjutsu that the Kage's brother had placed upon him so he could get revenge on the other clan's in Kusa.
Naruto was now staring at a man who had his eyes fixed on Hinata with morbid intent. Something about this man screamed trouble, and Naruto didn't much trust the man farther than he could through him. Which Naruto suspected was pretty far if he had assumed Gurren-Lagann. As funny as the thought was the same man who was dressed in robes that traditionally had been worn by daimyo's, but this man looked like no daimyo he had ever seen rise to his feet. Naruto believed this man was about to say something, so Naruto stopped breathing as to hear what he may had to say.
"Hiashi its been a lovely evening, but I'm afraid I am very tired and I must return home in the morning so I must thank your for your hospitality and retire for the evening." The man said making both Kamina and Naruto want to barf.
"Very well, I thank you for gracing us with your presence from Kumo no Kuni Daimyo-dono!" Hiashi said standing and matching his bow. He then turned his eyes to Hinata. "Daughter please show our honored guest to his sleeping quarters, and don't screw around or you will be punished!"
Naruto looked at Hinata's face and he could tell that her face had been filled with fear. Naruto looked at Kamina and saw that his expression held the same anger he had been feeling at the current moment. Naruto knew he needed to keep a cool head but there were just some emotions that couldn't be let go no matter what the situation had been. Naruto was sure he was going to spare Hinata from this unjust household. Naruto then took the form of a small wild fox as to stay hidden.
Not two seconds later Kamina watched poor Hinata lead the so-called daimyo from the room. He felt anger course through his veins as he turned to Hiashi, the man treated his daughter like a slave. Kamina hated men who treated others as slaves or just meaningless profits. Hiashi Hyuga stared back at Kamina with a small smirk.
"Your methods of raising your daughter are cruel, it may not be my place to say, but you shouldn't treat her like trash!" Kamina said looking into Hiashi's eye's.
"Your right it isn't your place, but that girl has caused me nothing but grief since she was born so as far as I see it being cruel will only serve to make her stronger!"
"That's a load of bullshit, if you want her to urge to be stronger she may get stronger if you encourage her, but the way your handling it is destroying what little confidence the child may have!" Kamina shouted as he rose to his feet.
"And that's why she will always be weak and useless as a Hyuga!" Hiashi retorted.
"Fine I'll leave you to your illusions of life and take my leave just don't expect me to support your life style!" Kamina before storming from the room.
Naruto followed Hinata and the shady daimyo to another building entirely. Naruto felt like something big was about to go down and he didn't want to let her leave his sight. As they reached a random door inside the compound two guards appeared behind Hinata and the daimyo. But they were not Hyuga's they were Kumo nin's. Naruto felt his entire spine tingle as he looked over to them. He wasn't prepared for this at all, but the only question was what were they up too.
"Alright boss the sleeping powder should take effect in about an hour so that is the most opportune time to leave." Spoke one of the masked ninja.
"Sleeping powder what is happe…?" Hinata could not finish her sentence as she was slammed against the wall by the daimyo.
"An hour is all we need on top of finally getting our hands on a Hyuga female that does not have that accursed seal. We will be treated as royalty by the council in Kumo!" The daimyo spoke making Hinata quiver in fear. "But first I'm going to have a little fun with this lovely specimen before we hand her over."
"WHO THE HELL DO YOU THINK I AM KICK!" A voice echoed as the corrupt daimyo's men were sent flying. "HAND'S OFF SASUKE'S BELOVED LITTLE SISTER PUNCH!" before the daimyo could react his jaw had been hit with exceptional force sending him out into the courtyard.
There standing infront of Hinata was Naruto pissed and ready to spill the daimyo's blood. He hated that he was almost too late for helping Hinata but this would almost make up for that by pounding this freak into the dirt. Naruto rushed to the courtyard making Hinata stay behind as to stay safe. When he got there he found something he hadn't expected. The man was still on his feet and had discarded his robes revealing shinobi attire.
"You got guts brat, in fact I haven't been hit like that in years, but I can't have you ruining my plans so prepare to die at the hands of Benkey the Swift!" The man roared moving forwards.
Naruto managed to doge his first attack but not the second one. With a swift jab to Naruto's left shoulder it had been dislocated. Naruto jumped a few feet away gripping his shoulder in pain. He desperately reached for his core drill and tried to put it in the drive located in his chest.
"Before I kill you kid I want to know what your name is, you obviously know and care about the Hyuga girl so I won't let your death be in vein?" Asked Benkey.
"My name is Naruto Uzumaki and I don't plan on dieing today and I won't let you take Hinata!" Naruto said as he desperately tried to put the core drill in his chest.
"Very well Naruto time for you to die!" Naruto saw the man rushing through some hand signs and began to get desperate. It was hard bending your right arm to meet your scapula as it was already, but this was murder on his arm.
With a mighty scream of "Yonshin Shunshin!" Benkey as much to the horror of Hinata's eyes was now being mercilessly pummeling Naruto back against the Hyuga compounds main wall at speeds too fast for the eye to see. Smoke enveloped Naruto from the force he was being hit by. After several ruthless moments, Benkey appeared right in front of the dust cloud.
"NARUTO!" Was all Hinata could scream.
She had disobeyed Naruto's orders to hide so she could make sure he was all right, but now she could not believe her eyes. Naruto may have been dead and it was her fault for not being able to defend herself.
"The kid fought bravely don't disgrace his honor by trying something brave, after all you are my assignment come quietly and no harm will come to you it's the least I can do for having to end his life." Benkey may have been a sleaze but he respected men who put their lives on the line for those they cared for.
"Just who the hell do you think I am, you haven't killed me yet and this fight is far from over!" Shouted Naruto's voice as the smoked cleared from the wall revealing a large face protruding from the wall.
"So the kids still alive huh? Well I guess its time to end this!" Benkey said before receiving another sucker punch to the face.
"So what took you so long bro?"
"The traffic was horrible and I have no sense of direction you know that." Said the familiar sight known as Gurren being as it was Kamina.
"Yeah you almost made it too late!"
"Oh shut up and lets combine already, this guy really gives me the creeps!"
Naruto in Lagann form pushed himself from the wall and jumped into the air. His body began to shrink as his arms and legs folded backwards. And from the bottom shot a large drill that began spinning intensely.
"When a man's friends are threatened he rises to their defense!"
"He takes their courage and turns it into his strength!"
"His fist becomes the unmovable wall that protects everything he loves!"
Lagann smashed into the dome on Gurren's body. Lagann's eye glowed with great intensity as Gurren's body began to shatter and making it new. The arms of Gurren were longer as well as the legs. Gurren's face took its place as the torso of the body as Lagann became the head. The part of Gurren's arms that held the symbol for Team Dai-Gurren branched out making shoulder like armor. Ad the waist was now covered by gold like battle skirt that was traditionally worn by samurai shogun. This made the legs appear longer in which they had extended. Finally, a helmet shot up from behind and attached itself to Lagann making both the eyes from Gurren from behind its sunglasses and Lagan eyes glow intensely.
"Brotherly Combining Gurren-Lagann!" Shouted both Kamina and Naruto, as flames seemed to explode around them.
