Author's Notes: I am a popular guy. Everyone seems to want things from me right away. Well, heres the next chapter. Hopefully Shukaku will not take as long as Raikage to write.


Chapter 09: Raikage

Naruto jumped. Catching Yugito, he flung her towards Jiraiya. She was unconscious and her face was a bloody mess. This pissed Naruto off more than he could have possibly thought it would. She belonged to him. No one else was allowed to touch her.

He let out a powerful wave of chakra and the falling rocks vaporized. Naruto landed against the side of the mountain and saw the Raikage running down towards him on the face of the rock. Naruto stood, holding himself with his chakra and stared at the Raikage of a moment that seemed to stretch out as his tails thrashed angrily. The Raikage pulled back his fist. It was crackling with electricity. Naruto met the punch head on, focusing chakra at his brow do dampen the impact and damage the Raikage. It was a surprise to him when the Raikage's punch pierced right through his chakra and sent him spinning down, splashing into the lake. It had actually hurt a lot. He felt dizzy. The water suddenly became saturated with electricity.

Naruto forced himself onto the surface. The Raikage was waiting for him, another jutsu at the ready. The Raikage's hand was barely burned by the chakra from when he had punched Naruto. Naruto lashed out, forming a twin set of rasengans and aiming them for the Raikage's chest. This left him open and the Raikage threw a pair of kunai into his chest. The pain made Naruto pause for a split second, but it was enough for the Raikage to get behind him, aiming to strike at Naruto's spine.

The violence of Naruto's tails surprised the Raikage and he was sent flying backwards with a burning red gash across his chest. It wasn't as deep as Naruto would have liked, but at least it would slow the Raikage down.

"We meet again, but this time you didn't bring me any snacks," Naruto taunted. He knew that by the time he finished bantering with the Raikage he would have regenerated the minor injuries he had received.

"You weren't the one I'd been planning to kill last time. This time, I'll make sure you're dead," the Raikage responded, taking up a defensive stance.

Naruto cracked his neck and stretched his back. "So are we almost ready to stop with the games. If this is the best you got, I'll have to fight with no hands, just to make it fun. What you faced in Suna wasn't even a quarter of what I am capable of now and even then, I didn't know how to use my chakra effectively." He didn't add that he didn't control his chakra all that well now either, but what he lacked in control, he made up for with volume.

"Underestimating me is your own downfall."

The Raikage dashed forward, fist outstretched. Naruto leaned back. The Raikage hadn't been aiming for his face like Naruto had thought. A great cloud of water sprayed up, half the height of the mountains around them. Electric current filled the air and arced at Naruto from all sides. He was paralyzed, the shocks causing all of his muscles to work against each other. When the attack finished, Naruto was smoldering, but relatively undamaged. He formed the tiger sign for a moment before the waters fell.

"That stung a bit..." There was a mist of water vapor floating on top of the lake, obscuring their feet.

"I can't go easy on you, can I? I was hoping to leave you alive so that we could extract your tailed beast. Three tailed beasts would make us the strongest village in the ninja world."

"Indeed, it will be... When I am Raikage," Naruto drawled, pretending to still be damaged by the Raikage's shocks.

"Over my dead body." The Raikage grinned, beginning a complex set of seals.

"My idea precisely. I can't even remember the last time I had hotpot."

This last statement threw off the Raikage long enough for hands to burst out of the water and grab his ankles.

"You thought that this steam was from your attack?" Naruto asked.

The hands pulled the Raikage down into the lake which had now come to a boil from the heat of the chakra the clones were giving off. The Raikage grimaced in pain, and let lose a surge of lightning chakra into the water, dispersing the clones that were holding him. He leapt out of the water and onto the shore. She skin of his body up to his chest was blistering and peeling.

"You surprised me. It won't happen-"

"Headhunter Jutsu!" This time, the clones pulled him down into the earth, burying him up to his neck. "Release!" Puffs of smoke appeared all across the battlefield and Naruto's chakra flared as their chakra was added to his own. "Tell me, how would you like to die?" He asked sadistically.

"Of old age, about fifty years after you." The Raikage's arm forced its way out of its earth prison and grabbed Naruto by the ankle, crushing it in his fist.

"AARGH!" Naruto fell to the ground.

"Time to join the Kazekage, you monster!" His other had was free and completed his hand signs. "KIRIN!"

"If you do that, you'll get yourself as well!"

Naruto used the skills he had learned in Suna to the best of his abilities, creating a wall of sand between himself and the massive electrical attack. The lightning strike pierced through his sand barrier like soft butter and forced its way through the cloak of chakra, arcing off in all directions. It was much stronger than the one the Raikage had used in Suna. Naruto could see from the desperate look in the Raikage's eyes that he was putting everything into this one attack.

When the attack was over, there was a large jagged hole piercing right through Naruto's stomach. The Raikage had passed out in the middle of the attack from lack of chakra and the pain of catching the edges of his own attack.

Now, Naruto realized that he had acted stupidly. His wind element would have had the advantage over the Raikage's lightning, but he had never thought to use it. Naruto reached for the Raikage. He couldn't move. It was as if his back had been fused to the ground. He couldn't move anything below the hole either because it had severed his spine. His tails could move though, they were controlled with chakra because they were solidified manifestations of chakra themselves. With great effort, he stretched one out and pushed it through the Raikage's eye. He didn't have the strength to go all the way into the brain, but hopefully, the poisoning from the demonic chakra would finish the Raikage off.

Two days later, Naruto woke up. The hole was closed but he still could not move. He guessed that several organs had been obliterated and had been regrown from scratch and the Kyuubi had healed him in an order that was most likely to leave him alive at the end of it. An intravenous feeding tube stuck into his arm, pumping vitamins and minerals directly into his bloodstream. He was surprised that the Kyuubi had not reproached him while he had been asleep, but then remembered about the seal that was blocking out her influence. Yugito as nearby, sitting alertly in a chair while Jiraiya slept in an empty bed.

"He is dead?" Naruto asked.

"He lives, for now. The best doctors tend him at his mansion. He's been fatally poisoned and has not been able to move from his bed. Twice he has sent assassins to kill you, but they did not succeed." Yugito reported dutifully.

"You killed them?"

"You will be Raikage in a few days, sooner if you finish the current Raikage. I would have done so, but I will not steal your kill from you. It would weaken your position he he died by anything but your own hand." That made sense to Naruto. Only a weak person needed someone else to finish their enemies. The only reason to have someone else do a task was if it was below you. "I am afraid that the people will not easily accept you."

"Good." Naruto wiggled his toes, ignoring the comment about the people. They would serve him or die, it did not matter if they accepted him. "My spine has regrown and I am guessing all my organs have at least reached a point where they can function. I should be able to move in a few hours."

Naruto looked around the room he was in. He was in a clean white bed. The walls were white as well. A large window was on the south wall, though the view was blocked by another building. To the east and north were doors. One was probably a washroom and the other probably led into the hall of the building which Naruto assumed was the Kumo Hospital.

"Are you tired?" Naruto asked. By the looks of Yugito, she had not slept since he had fought the Raikage.

"I can stay awake for another day or two if necessary." Yugito replied.

"I will wake Jiraiya if I cannot fend off any attackers who come. Are you able to talk with the Nibi?"

"Yes. When she's not asleep."

"Tell her to do to you what the Kyuubi did to me. Become a demon and take her chakra. It will make you stronger." He did not bother to add that the demonic instincts would force her to obey a stronger demon. It was the surest way to ensure loyalty.

"If that is your command." Yugito leaned back and closed her eyes.

"One more thing..." Naruto said, "Why did you not kill me when you had the chance?"

"Because, Nibi is too afraid of what would happen if we couldn't kill you. The Kyuubi has power over your body in ways you can't even imagine. Processes that you can't control in your body, like the order you heal injuries, the Kyuubi can control. The Kyuubi probably also has control over your chakra coils. She can't control you, but if she releases all of her pure chakra out of a single chakra point, the blast would kill almost anyone."

"I never thought of that... When I get these seals off of me, I will have to find out just what exactly she can do to me. Rest now. Tomorrow will be a busy day."

Yugito did as she was told and closed her eyes. Soon, her breathing slowed and became even and heavy, telling Naruto that she was asleep.

"You're awake, aren't you Jiraiya." Naruto said.

"You found me out," Jiraiya said, opening his eyes, "If you knew I was awake, why did you discuss your plans like that?"

"I didn't tell you anything you don't already know," Naruto grumbled, "You already know that I intend to learn sealing and get these seals off of me as fast as possible, just as I know that you're going to do whatever you can to stop me. I wanted to talk to you about Yugito, though. Don't try to stop the Nibi from taking over. You heard what Yugito said, she is loyal because the Nibi is afraid of me. I don't want that weakened."

"Or maybe, helping the Nibi take control will give her the power to kill you in your sleep."

"It's only two tails. You can take her out without my help. But, if I even suspect she is betraying me, I will make sure she doesn't survive the night." Naruto bared his fangs is what could have been an evil grin or an angry grimace.

"I wonder, does that mean I should kill you now and end it all?" Jiraiya suggested.

"I doubt it. You had your chances to kill me. It's not like there was any reason not to after a certain point. You want to believe that the goodness I had will reassert itself one day, because I am the only apprentice you have left, and my father was the only one who wasn't evil." Naruto knew this had to sting Jiraiya, but the old man did not show any reaction.

"Is that it? I still have time to take on another apprentice," Jiraiya sighed.

"But you won't. You've had too many bad experiences. You've given up on everything but the hope that one day I will be the savior of the world instead of its destroyer." Naruto chuckled at the thought of saving the world. It was a foreign concept to him now. He was going to do what was best for himself.

"But you won't."

"That all depends on your point of view."

Naruto stood up and stretched, cracking his back and knuckles with a most satisfying crunch that woke Yugito from her sleep. She started in surprise before Naruto used a henge to clothe himself. Naruto grinned madly at her and admired the changes her slumber had wrought.

Yugito had shrunk. She was at least six inches shorter than she had been before, though it seemed as if none of the height had come off her legs. Her blond hair had become a deep purple, the old blonde color visible only at the tips. The curves if her body had slimmed to almost the equivalent of Kyuubi's form and her skin had developed a blueish tint from the thin, almost-invisible fur that coated much of it. Her nails had darkened and sharpened into curved, pointy claws that almost completely retracted into her. He wondered at how long they were when extended – almost certainly longer than his. Her elongated jaw and upturned nose were split by thin black lips covering sharp white fangs. Here eyes were the most visually drawing change though. They were much larger, almost double the size they had been, with large vertical slit pupils. Two thin cat tails elegantly curved down from her waist, curling up at the ends as to not drag on the floor.

"Does this give you eternal youth like my transformation?" Naruto asked.

"Extended, but not eternal. Seven times the life of a normal person." She answered, "I am not as resilient as you." Yugito answered after pausing to consult with Nibi. She ran her fingers through her hair.

"I suppose the sin you inherited from the cat is vanity?"

"Were there any sins that Kyuubi did not give to you?" Yugito replied in a less submissive way than Naruto would have liked.

"No matter what you're thinking now, I'll make you look like a saint in comparison." Naruto bragged.

"Only a saint would have the generosity to save you." Yugito hissed.

Naruto was getting excited. Yugito's demonic instincts were taking over and she had not yet submitted to him completely. There would be a fight for dominance.

"Jiraiya... I suggest you step outside and close the door." Naruto did not let his eyes stray from Yugito's. "It's time to put a leash on my new pet."

Jiraiya backed towards the door, warily watching the two demons stare each other down. Naruto glanced at him as he stepped out and Yugito pounced on him. Naruto let her hit him, her claws digging into his shoulders. He knew exactly what to do. It was a common attack between himself and Kyuubi. He let himself fall backwards, bending his back so that he rolled with the momentum and landing on top of her, sitting on her ribs. Her back was bent harshly, wedged into the joining of wall and floor. She hissed loudly and bucked, using the wall for leverage to try and throw Naruto off, but his knees were clamped tightly around her ribs and the claws of his feet digging into her hips. Yugito hissed and slashed at him with her own claws, but Naruto caught her wrists. He could feel the warm trickle of blood on his toes. Her struggling had caused the claws to tear into her skin. Then the smell filled his nostrils.

The scent of demonic blood filled him with urges that almost made him lose his mind completely. He held on to just a sliver of sanity until a dark purple tail wrapped around his neck and slammed his head against the wall. He was dazed for a moment, which allowed Yugito to throw him off and flip up onto her feet. She turned towards him and brought up her claws which were coated with dark flames and then pounced on him, digging her claws into his chest. It was time to stop playing with her. He flared his chakra and her flames were doused, though his chakra did not burn her as badly as it had before. She was wincing in pain, though, which meant that his pure chakra was not completely ineffective. Her clothes, on the other hand, were much less fire-resistant than she was and disintegrated around her hands and knees where she was touching him.

"You belong to me, Neko-chan..." Naruto wrapped three of his tails around her and squeezed her against his body. His chakra leaving her wearing nothing but charred scraps. Using his two free tails, he flipped over so that he was on top and then grabbed her wrists and pulled her claws out of his chest. "Time to find out if you have the strength to be my slave, or are weak enough to be the dinner that gives me the strength to finish taking over the world."

Yugito hissed and tried to bite him, but Naruto headbutted her in the face and her head bounced harshly off the floor. Then he led his henge drop and loosened his tails just enough to get into position and plunge his penis into her. He was not surprised to find that she wasn't a virgin. He knew how well a female jinchuuriki would probably be treated.

Yugito struggled until Naruto sunk his teeth into the side of her neck. Her body relaxed immediately, her demonic instincts telling her that she belonged to him now... at least until he showed signs of weakness. Naruto knew the feeling. Kyuubi had inspired the feeling in him on several occasions, though not as strongly as Yugito now felt them because Yugito had completed her transformation and was now fully demon.

Naruto had no need to hold her anymore. His chakra died down and he unwrapped his tails from around her and began to move. Her body responded readily to his.

"Naruto..." She purred as he drove himself into her at rapidly increasing speed. Her hips bucked to meet his with loud slaps of flesh against flesh.

Naruto did not let loose his grip on her neck. He didn't bite any deeper, but he drank as much blood as he could suck out of holes his teeth had made. The faster he humped her, the harder her heart beat, the more blood could be squeezed out of the small wound. Then Yugito let out a cry and Naruto felt her flesh clamp down on his own. He let himself go as well and his seed flooded into her before he collapsed on top of her, finally having the chance to notice the appeal of her flesh.

Naruto prodded the small puffs of flesh that were her tits. Her chest wasn't completely flat, but it wasn't even a handful under the bluish nipples. While he found her coloring fascinating, he began to wonder if there were any female jinchuuriki whose bijuu was an animal of a type with tits, not that he could think of any animals that had tits off the top of his head. He sighed and ran his hand along her body. Her body was tight and hard as expected of a ninja, her muscles lean as if to be quick and flexible. He heard the scratching of a quill by the door. Jiraiya had probably been peeking through the keyhole. It made Naruto want to use Yugito's body and display it proudly, showing Jiraiya his prowess and flesh prize.

There was a sudden shower wood as the ceiling splintered and a sword humming with lightning chakra pierced through Naruto, Yugito, and into the floor. Naruto found himself caught and unable to dodge as six more swords penetrated his body at various angles. Then a dark skinned ninja landed in front of him.

"Yo, foxy with the lady both jinchuuriki like me. This village not yours, you pinned to the floors."

"Wh.." Naruto couldn't answer the strange rhyming assassin that had appeared. It was not the first time that he had been pierced by many swords, but it was the first time it had been done so skillfully.

"I am Killa'Bee, of the Hachibi."

"Fuck you." Naruto released his chakra and spread it out as far as it could go, turning into a fox that filled most of the room. Before KillerBee could recover from the shock of Naruto's violent escape, he was decapitated by a powerful bite of Naruto's chakra jaws. There was a great explosion of energy that blew the chakra right off of Naruto, sending him flying through the wall.

Naruto couldn't move. He looked like a pincushion. A pair of swords penetrated through the backs of his shoulders and crisscrossed through his chest, barely missing his heart. One sword penetrated straight through his spine just above his tails and came out his stomach. The fourth sword pierced through both his hips from the side. The final two passed through his forearms and into his hands. Since it was just straight-through piercings, and not holes nor other more damaging and destructive stabbings, he knew he could be back in fighting shape in less than an hour, if only he could get the damn swords out.

"Try not to move," It was Jiraiya. The swords through his arms and hips were pulled out first since he didn't have to be moved to remove them. Naruto had no intention of moving his torso at least. He was amazed that the explosion of KillerBee's body had not caused the swords to tear his lungs and heart apart. Naruto could not see what Jiraiya did next, but it was some sort of jutsu that allowed him to cut the hilts from the shafts of the remaining blades and then it was just a matter of pulling them the rest of the way through.

Then, Yugito managed to drag herself out of the room and over towards Naruto, leaving a trail of blood behind her. To Naruto's surprise, she began to lick his wounds. At first, Naruto thought that she could see how weak he was at the moment and planned to eat him. This idea vanished from his mind as the pain of his wounds where she had licked began to dull. They were twice as fast as his other wounds to close.

"Lick your own wounds. I don't want you bleeding to death unless I was the one who made you that way."

Naruto almost immediately realized that this was an impossible command for her to follow. He had never seen a person able to lick themselves there without the help of a jutsu or a disgusting amount of fat that would put Akamichi's to shame. Then, as if to prove him wrong, she curled her back in an almost impossible way and began to lick her own wound, then twisted and did the back. This act sent tremors through Jiraiya who was obviously struggling to not pull out his notebook and start writing.

"Jiraiya. I've had enough of this. Take me to the Raikage. If he's in the state I've been told he is in, I can take him, even as injured as I am. I'll be relying on you to take care of any guards though. You as well Neko-chan."

"As you command, Lord Kyuubi." Yugito replied. The demonic tinge in her voice had completely disappeared since she had calmed down. Of course, when Naruto had had two tails, his voice had been pretty normal as well. She stood up, staggering for a moment. Naruto chuckled as he saw how she kept her thighs apart to prevent the burned flesh from rubbing. He could only imagine what she felt like on the inside.

Naruto, leaning heavily on Yugito, headed to the exit. Jiraiya took up the rear, guarding them from any surprise attacks that might occur. The other people in the hospital gave them plenty of room. The two naked demons were fearsome to behold, especially since they knew that just one was powerful enough to beat the Raikage. Jiraiya's reputation was almost as fearsome. The crowded streets outside the hospital were no different.

A mother bringing her young boy in quickly covered the boy's eyes as Naruto and Yugito stepped out. Naruto sent out a wave of powerful pheromones like Kyuubi did with him and winked seductively at the woman. She blushed. This also, however, had the effect of awakening Yugito's body and it began to respond. Her hand slid down from around his back and grabbed his ass. The mother immediately received the opportunity to see Naruto's erection grow before her eyes.

"Wait until after dinner." Naruto growled Yugito's own release of pheromones was putting them on the verge of rutting right there in front of the hospital. At Naruto's command, she immediately calmed.

By the time they reached the Raikage's residence, Naruto was able to stumble along on his own, but he still leaned on Yugito to lessen the damage that moving around was doing to his healing wounds.

"Eight ninja ahead. Twelve behind," Naruto said for Jiraiya's benefit. The BOLT operatives had been well concealed by normal standards, but Naruto could hear their heartbeats and smell their sweat, and even see a shimmering haze around the henges that they used to hide themselves.

The ninja, knowing that it was useless to hide, revealed their presence with their weapons drawn.

"By the orders of the Raikage, you are to surrender or die."

"I gave no such order," Naruto replied, "If you do not immediately show me into my new home, I will tear open your children and eat their livers then force their entrails down your throat while I rape your wife and tie your mother in the market to be the village prostitute... What I do to you on the second day will be worse." He delivered his threat in a bored tone of voice that caused the blood to drain from the man's face.

"You will never be the Raikage as long as I live." The BOLT steeled himself, and stood firmly in front of Naruto.

"You have just committed treason against Kumogakure. I am new to this job, but I believe the punishment is death, isn't it, Yugito."

"Yes master," Yugito affirmed.

"Now, either there are nineteen co-conspirators or nineteen bodyguards. It's so hard to tell." One of the other BOLT operatives got the hint and stabbed his comrade from behind.

"Raikage, sir, the threat has been eliminated."

Naruto laughed. "Threat?"

"Of course, he was no threat to you, but only to the peace and stability of Kumogakure." The other bolt operatives were still standing by, deciding where their loyalties lay.

"You're promoted. These are your men now. Kill any of them who does not obey your commands. Then, you are to bring their families to me for the ceremony tomorrow where I shall give my first address to the people."

Naruto looked around and chose one of the bolt operatives who seemed most likely to try and stop him. "Kitsune-Bi: Furiya!" The blast took the ninja by surprise and left only the charred remain of his feet where he had been standing. "Start with him if you can remember who he was."

"Raikage-sama, he was the second cousin of the former Raikage." It was the youngest man of the team who spoke up this time.

"I know where he lived."

"Good. I want all traitors like him rooted out from the BOLT before I address the people tomorrow. Now go!"

The new captain shunshinned away before the command was finished. The remaining men followed quickly, except for one exceptionally short one who got in line beside Jiraiya, guarding their rear.

"May I kill him?" Yugito asked.

"There's no need. I just have a soldier who takes commands literally." Naruto bared his teeth in a dark grin. "I gave that BOLT the command of the men. My nose tells me that this one is a girl, and a deliciously young one at that."

"Yes, Sir!" The ninja had a high-pitched voice like a young child. "I am Tsukya Nari, age eleven." She pulled her mask off. She was a rather plain looking girl with short hair, as if she was trying to look like a guy.

Naruto chuckled. The girl had spunk. She didn't even sound afraid of him. "You're either a unparalleled genius or a complete idiot."

"I am a genius sir. I have a new bloodline ability that gives me an ability akin to photographic memory. I even remember being born. When tested My intelligence has been estimated at levels between two hundred and thirty and four hundred, mostly because the tests did not anticipate the possibility of such high values. Any process I learn and complete once I can repeat to perfection at any time."

"Sounds like you would have given Shikamaru a challenge." Naruto said.

"Sir, comparing me to that second rate genius is an insult to my ability."

Naruto growled menacingly and all the mirth left his face in an instant, "If you're so damn smart, what the hell are you doing anywhere near me!"

"I am not here to be near you. According to intelligence reports, Jiraiya has been your traveling companion since you left Sunagakure. He could not have survived long if he could not restrain you. Psychological reports indicate that Jiraiya would not let a woman or child come to harm if he could prevent it. By standing next to him, I am therefore receiving the best possible protection that could possibly be offered."

"Heh. So you are smart. What are your weaknesses then?"

"My abilities leave me with absolutely no capacity for creativity. If there is a situation I have not prepared for, I am completely defenseless. Also, due to my age, my body is weak, fragile, and has little chakra or stamina."

"If you're going to follow me around, do it by going with me, not with my companions." Naruto began to stalk towards the mansion. The girl ran up and trotted along beside him. "Do you know every ninja in this village?" Naruto asked.

"I have not met each of them personally, but I have read all their files."

"Even the top secret ones?"

"The Raikage opened the vault in my presence once. I practiced the skill I would need to repeat that action and have since broken into his office every week to read the new files."

"You missed a weakness. You can't seem to lie."

"I can lie perfectly. I know several techniques that can prevent lies from being detected, even by mind reading jutsu, except the most powerful of them."

"I have the perfect job for you, then." Naruto licked his lips. "You'd suck my dick every night and always do it perfectly."

"Really? Can I?" The girl blushed and beamed at him as if she were completely smitten with him. Even her body gave off arousal signals that could not be mistaken.

"I can't belie-"

Suddenly the signals all stopped and the blush faded into a pale pallor as cold sweat beaded on her skin.

"Please... I can't. My mother would never forgive me if I allowed myself to become so dishonored."

"Wait!"

The girl immediately stopped all movement, returning to her normal state, all emotions disappearing. Naruto almost tripped over his own feet as he tried to match the sudden stop.

"I didn't mean to wait that way."

"Sorry sir. I thought that you were testing my resolve or my abilities, so I did my best to demonstrate both."

"Your heart beats and your breathing... With abilities like that, you could probably kill a man and he wouldn't realize that you were the one who did it even if he saw you do it."

"I have completed three A-ranked assassination missions and was a vital component of one S-ranked assassination."

"Yugito, is she telling the truth?"

"I have not seen her myself. But I have heard rumors of a young girl with her abilities," Yugito replied.

"You have a big penis."

Naruto's jaw dropped, "I know we were walking through the town naked and still are, but why are you even thinking about something like that?"

"I am not. But men feel that a larger penis implies strength and ability. You are very much within what is considered normal range. I was trying to flatter you in order to endear you to me and increase my standing."

"Jiraiya, you understand girls..."

Jiraiya just looked at him blankly, "Was it really necessary to kill that man. I am having concerns about your ability to remain in control of yourself."

"I am not trying to kill her. If I wanted her dead, she'd be dead." Naruto was about to rip Jiraiya's throat out in order to relive his frustration.

"I understand women, not girls," Jiraiya replied, his hands already in the form to activate the seal if necessary. Naruto turned back towards the Raikage's mansion and strode forward. Nari kept exact pace with him. Naruto couldn't help wanting to kill the girl, but knew that his life would be easier if he kept her alive. His brow furrowed and his lips curled into a snarl as he walked. Only one ninja was stupid enough to try to stop him, and Naruto did not even bother playing with him, he just plunged his claws into the man's chest and continued walking as if nothing had happened.

At an ornate set of double doors, Naruto stopped. He could hear the beeping of medical equipment inside. "Whoever opens this door, may be close enough to the exit to slip out and live through the next five minutes." The door didn't open. Naruto roared and slammed his hands into the door, sending them flying off their hinges. The two ninja who had been standing with weapons drawn were crushed against the opposite wall, leaving bloody splatters.

"Guards!" the Raikage called out, more forcefully than Naruto expected him to be able to considering his condition. His own attack had cause serious lightning burns that covered his body. On top of those, it was like his flesh was rotting as the demonic chakra slowly ate away at his body. Both of his eyes were covered by a bandage. Naruto suspected that the other eye was the first thing that his chakra had rendered useless.

"Worthless humans like you are annoying," Naruto said, "You're too weak to kill me, so you send assassins while I sleep. You disgust me. You were supposed to be strong. You don't even deserve the honor of death."

"Worthless... Every person in this city will listen to my commands. You will die. You will wish you had followers as loyal as my people."

"Your people are my people now. Tsukya, take note. This failure is to be hung by the wrists in the market tonight. Anyone who tries to touch him is to be killed, stripped and hung with him by those who you know will be loyal to me. If this does not happen exactly as I've said."

"A test of loyalty is unnecessary. Even if I were disloyal and waiting for a chance to slay you, I would do as you commanded in order to survive long enough to do so."

"What about dinner?" Yugito asked.

"I was planning on eating him, but look at how disgusting he is. All the scarring and decomposition made him unappetizing." Naruto glanced towards where Tsukya had been standing, but she was already gone.

"Remember your vegetarian diet," Jiraiya said.

"Vegetarian diet is over. I am going to eat meat, whether you realize it or not since I have become able to resist your seal."

There was a blur of movement and the former Raikage was gone, a live pig in his place. Naruto had the feeling that Tsukya was going to be very useful to him.

The next morning, a mound of corpses was waiting in the market. There had been three organized efforts to retrieve the Raikage, and several individual ones. Tsukya Nari was awake and waiting for him when he woke up. Naruto immediately created shadow clones and posted them throughout the city, sending about half of his chakra to the library where dozens of clones began to read every single scroll about sealing. By the time he had finished that, several families including women and children were waiting for him in the courtyard wile the rest of the village had gathered in the street.

"People of Kumogakure. I am your leader. We will conquer the world and the world will serve me."

He flared his chakra into the shape of a demonic fox and leapt down to where the families were waiting. He smelled them all carefully, then selected a young green-haired woman. Her eyes were a piercing icy blue and refused to wilt in fear. She was beautiful with smooth, tanned skin, perky breasts and the scent of grass and dirt that comes from a long night in a training field.

"These people are the families of traitors. They have turned their backs on this village and its leaders and have chosen instead to follow weak and dying fools who would lead you to ruin. They have tried and failed to assassinate their Raikage. Now, they receive their rewards!"

Naruto sunk his teeth into the woman, then gagged and spit out the blood he had drunk. The woman's blood was full of powerful poison. Naruto felt woozy, so it was a wonder this woman could even stand.

"Medic!" Naruto called out. A ninja leapt forward ad bowed. "Find out what poison this woman took and stockpile it. I have never tasted anything so effective. It might have disrupted the presentation."

"Yes, Raikage-sama!" The woman was whisked away.

"As I was saying..." Naruto strode towards the prisoners. They backed away, only to run into the Kunai of BOLT who were guarding them.

Naruto snatched a child from its mother's arms and mauled it. He tore it apart, peeling flesh from bones. Fat and blood dripped onto the ground as tendons snapped. The civilians were beginning to panic. They were used to barbaric ninjas executing unspeakable horrors, but this was more than they could bear. Naruto unleashed a wave of killing intent that brought every civilian in the area to their knees.

"See this! This is what happens to my enemies. This is what happens to the enemies of those I protect. I am Naruto Uzumaki, Jinchuuriki of the Kyuubi no Kitsune, and my fangs will be red with the blood of their families!"

Naruto tore the remaining skin from the chest of the child and carved the now famous signature into the sternum. He tossed the small corpse into the crowd and released the overwhelming pressure, allowing them to scurry home.

"Take the rest of the trash to whatever serves as a dungeon here." Naruto turned to stride away, but tripped over Tsukiya. Her eyes were wide open in shock. It took Naruto only a few seconds to think why. "You have my permission to close your eyes if I am feeding outside battle."

Tsukiya nodded, but did not follow him as he returned to his room. Everyone went home. The village remained deathly silent that day, except for screams of pleasure and pain as Naruto broke Yugito in and trained her in the arts that mattered to him.

It was evening. Naruto had slowly acquired various tidbits of knowledge over the course of the day. For example, Naruto learned that there wasn't a decent place to get ramen in the village. Every shop owner was more than grateful to give the Raikage a free meal on his first day. He learned the ins and outs of the village. He saw the alleys, sewers, roadways and rooftops. He learned the lay of the land until he knew at least two escape routes from every place he could find.

The one thing he paid most attention to, though, were the sealing scrolls he had access to. Everything from beginner level storage scrolls to seal master texts were available to him. It was much more complicated than he had thought. He'd known that the shapes drawn on the seal modified the flow of chakra. There were hundreds of patterns and thousands of sub-patterns that could be combined together to create seals. Some were simple. Others, he would never be able to memorize. Beyond that was the medium and the base. Seals tattooed on flesh reacted completely different that seals painted on paper. If drawn in blood, there could be a different effect than if drawn in sand or drawn in ink. Every waking moment, he had clones studying a copy of every one of the scrolls.

While his clones read and explored, Naruto's main body was focused on learning how to execute the duties of the Raikage. His clones gave him an advantage though: as soon as he had learned his duty, he could assign a clone to execute it while he learned more. Through it all, Tsukiya remained by his side and he began to rely on her. If there was anything he needed to know, he need only ask and she would immediately tell him the answer if it was known. She was given overseeing responsibilities for mission assignments, equipment distribution, and dealing with civilians. She was practically doing his job, except for the paperwork.

"Raikage-sama, an emissary from the sound is here. He wishes to discuss peace negotiations," She told him.

"Set an appointment, five days from now – dinner time." She did not even flinch at Naruto's order. It had take time to get used to her, and she had needed to use Jiraiya as a shield on a few occasions, but the girl had grown on him and now he rarely felt like rending her limb from limb.

Jiraiya had not been so present as Naruto's new assistant. He had spent hours every day to do research at the local bathhouses and hot springs. It almost unnerved Naruto and he had the urge to slay Jiraiya for this slight whenever their paths crossed.

"How are you at drawing?" Naruto asked.

"I tried it when I was young. I can make fairly accurate representations of things."

Naruto cocked his head and listened. No one was near enough to hear the discussion he was about to have.

"You are useful to me," Naruto said.

"Thank you Raikage-sama," the girl replied.

"I know that you are acting only in your own self interest by serving me."

Tsukiya's heart suddenly started beating faster, but then slowed back to a regular pace. Naruto would not have noticed if he had not been paying such close attention to the girl.

"No need to lie to me. I know that this means that you are loyal to me as long as it serves you. I have no intention at this time of harming you. I am going to ask for your help."

One of Naruto's many clones dispersed, relaying the information that Yugito had arrived and was watching from the shadows. She had been ordered to kill the girl if she betrayed him in any way.

Naruto turned his back to the girl and dropped his henge which had served him as clothing. "Nari-chan, do you see a seal on my back."

"No. There are the remnants of a seal surrounding a large circle in the middle of your back."

"Remnants... There's no actual seal there?" Naruto asked skeptically.

"There is no seal," she replied affirmatively.

"That sneaky bastard..." Naruto chuckled. He probed his back with his chakra and affirmed that the seal was in fact completely destroyed. That explained why Jiraiya had kept his distance since Nartuo had recovered. "Take a kunai and remove every remnant," Naruto ordered, grabbing his mask and applying it to his face. Moments after he had done so, he felt four long cuts. They healed in moments.

"I can't. You heal to rapidly."

"Take it off piece by piece if you have to. I want it all gone."

Tsukiya grabbed a pinch of his skin and cut it off in a single swipe of her kunai. It was a sharp pain and it bled a lot. Naruto gritted his teeth.

"Shall I stop?"

"Do it as fast as you can, then run, get out of the village for a few hours," Naruto instructed, growling as he fought the urge to rip skin from her body.

"As you command."

Pinch, cut, pinch, cut. Resisting the pain slowly began to cause his mind to become hazy. He whipped around to where the girl should have been and grabbed for her. She wasn't there. Yugito still stood in the shadows though and Naruto tossed his mask aside. The smell of blood filled his nostrils. He knew there was only one good reason to not kill someone now, and that was so they could fulfill his other pressing needs.

Naruto dashed forward and slammed Yugito into the wall so hard that her skull cracked the stone it slammed into. She cried out in pain and the delicious smell of blood wafted off of her as he scalp bled. Naruto laughed and slammed her head into the wall again, watching the blood seep into the cracks that spider-webbed out from the point of impact. He dropped her and she slumped dazed to the ground, mouth hanging open. This might as well have been an invitation. He barely had to move his hips to jam his dick into her mouth, slamming her head against the wall with the force of his hips. She gagged and her body convulsed. It felt too good. She pushed at his hips, but he just dug his claws into the ground and forced himself deeper into her throat. When she stopped struggling, Naruto pulled out and growled.

Yugito's eyes blinked open and she raised herself up with great effort. She was swaying slightly. She hadn't been able to breathe while Naruto's dick had choked her. Naruto threw her angrily across the room. She bounced off the stone floor with a sickening crack. Naruto leapt, landing on her as she hit the ground for the second and last time. It didn't matter to Naruto that this impact knocked her unconscious. It didn't matter when she woke up, screaming in pain as he forced his burning-hot, chakra-covered penis into her tight, resisting anus. In fact, the screams just made it that much better.

When he was finally satisfied, Yugito was a mess. She was covered in bruises. Tears and scratches raked along her body where he had dug in his claws. Her most sensitive areas had deep punctures from his fangs. He was pretty sure that she had several broken bones and a severe concussion if not worse.

It would be a while before Yugito was ready to be with him again. For the first time, he truly wished that he had unrestricted access to Kyuubi again. She could take anything he threw at her, and make him submit as well and because it all took place in his mind, the injuries did not last. He tried to call her up, but it was futile. Naruto slumped down in a chair and took a nap.

Naruto woke up when Tsukiya Nari returned.

"Nari-chan," he yawned, "Yugito needs to go to the hospital." The light from the windows showed naruto that it was already early evening.

"That was done when I returned last night. They expect her to recover fully in a few weeks. Until then, I will ensure that all your meals are healthy females."

Naruto grunted, "What time is it now."

"Sunrise, the day after you went to sleep."

"Any pressing business?"

"There's a missive from the mist. They are demanding an apology from you."

"Still pissed off cause I killed one of their Mizukage's relatives? That dirty thief deserved what he got."

"That and for the slaughter of a group who had peacefully met up with you in order to discuss the matter."

"If that was peaceful, then their violent must be pretty damn fun." Naruto stood up and stretched. His back was sore from sleeping in a chair.

"Your response?"

"Screw them. Tell them that they should beg my forgiveness. If they don't, I'll make Konoha and Ame look like a children's game when I go to demand their surrender."

"Understood. Lay on the floor please."

Naruto did as he was told, crossing his arms under his head. Tsukiya sat on his back and began digging her fingers into Naruto's back. He was about to smack her away with his tails when his back suddenly relaxed and all the built up tension seemed to flow out of him. He moaned in pleasure and his tails splayed out flat against the ground.

"The ambassadors from Oto are agitated. They feel that the delay is an insult to their village."

"To let them see me any earlier would be an insult to this village." Naruto tensed for a moment as Tsukiya fumbled on a less human muscled group but, after a few moments, he was able to relax again as she figured it out. "Send them a cake and some meat or something. Make sure to fatten them up in the next few days. Tell them that they will get first class treatment while they wait since I am busy with assuming my new duties."

"As you wish. There also the matter of Sunagakure," she said, "The reports-"

"What's going on in Suna. I thought Suna was gone!" The new news filled Naruto with hope for a second, but it was quickly dashed by Tsukiya's response.

"That is to say, that a creature has been spotted near the ruins of Sunagakure. The team the former Raikage sent to investigate reported confirmation that it is the Ichibi."

"Gaara survived?"

"No, we believe that the Ichibi escaped when Gaara died."

"Keep continuous surveillance, and send a team with the qualifications to protect Shukaku from any other villages who might try to seal him. Also, be on the lookout for the Hachibi. There was an explosion when I killed him. It might have been the bijuu escaping."

"I will put appropriate people on the task." She finished with his back and stood up, moving deferentially aside. "Do you have any requests for breakfast?"

"How is the woman with the poisoned blood?" Naruto asked, sitting up and eyeing her as if she would be the next thing he would eat. What he had said when they had met had only been meant as a joke, but now she was proving to be all to qualified to be one of his mates – if only he could solve the whole killing chakra problem.

"She's still imprisoned. She is showing no adverse affects from the poison within her. We believe that it is the result of a blood limit or a new clan jutsu that is not yet documented. We have been unable to replicate it."

"Then turn her into a factory. Drain her blood, but keep her alive. If she is the source of the poison... then we have an almost infinite supply. When we've stockpiled enough, we can breed her to make more. If it's a jutsu, if we run out of it in her blood, then it's merely a matter of torturing her until we find out."

"It will be done." Tsukiya left.

Naruto sat in his throne and waited. He had expected the job of a Kage to be hard, but he barely had to do anything. The criminals and traitors were too afraid to cause trouble, so the village was peaceful and there was yet to be a problem that couldn't be solved by torturing people. He could train of course, and noticing that he had plenty of spare chakra he created a powerful clone to go out and do that. His knowledge of seals was progressing rapidly. He had read every sealing scroll in the village that he could find and his clones were quickly discovering understanding of what was in those scrolls. He thought of hunter Jiraiya down, after all, he worked better with someone to dumb things down for him. He could probably be a seal master within the week that way.

Naruto's sensitive ears picked up a muffled squeal of pain. He knew it was Tsukiya's voice. Just down the corridor and around the corner, he found some ninja's. One of them had his assistant pinned to the wall with his large hand around her neck. His back was to Naruto and Naruto's footsteps were silent.

"I warn you. I carry only the Raikage's orders," she warned, "Impeding me is treason."

"I'll listen to you when you're tall enough to kiss my ass without using a stepping stool."

"That can be arranged," Naruto whispered into the man's ear, "If you're going to hurt my men, do it where I can enjoy it. If you're going to touch my woman... You'd better be prepared to face the consequences..."

Naruto grabbed the man by the thighs and charged his hands with unrefined wind chakra. The man screamed and dropped Tsukiya as the chakra ate through his legs, slowly grinding them down like sand paper rubbing rapidly against him.

Naruto looked at the other Ninja standing around. "What are you waiting for. This man is a traitor, his family should have been in the prison by now." The ninja in his hands had gone into shock and had almost fallen unconscious, so Naruto sharpened the chakra and cut the rest of the way through instantly and the man's body fell to the floor. Naruto carved the kyuu into the man's ass. "Good luck finding someone too short to kiss that." He turned to the men standing around him. "It's been too long since the people had an examply. Hang him in the market and get it done before he bleeds out."

"Yes, Raikage-sama." The shocked men grabbed their injured comerade.

"One more thing." Naruto grabbed Nari's shirt, lifting her up off the ground. Her expression remained neutral. Naruto kissed her. She kissed him back, well. She had obviously passed the seduction lessons that kunoichi had to go through with flying colors. "This is mine. No one is to ever forget that." With her still in his hand he stomped back to his office.

Nari wrapped her arms around his neck. "Thank you."

"Don't thank me yet. Being mine is infinitely more dangerous than being useful. You saw how Yugito was when I finished mating with her."

"You're going to mate with me now?"

"If I thought you would have survived it, I would have done it this morning." Naruto felt her body tense. "I have an idea about that though. I'll need to consult with the Kyuubi first though."

"When will that be?"

"As soon as I figure out how to remove the extra seals. Tell me, did that man have a family?"

"He has a wife who is a retired ninja, a daughter who had been recommended to take the chunin exams before three of the hidden villages were destroyed, a son who is in the academy and the wife is pregnant with their fourth child. The third miscarried. His parents were both ninja of the village. His father-"

"That's enough. I've decided that I'll have the daughter for breakfast." He leaned forward and breathed hotly on the skin of her neck. He licked the skin delicately, gently dragging his fangs along her. Goosebumps rose up on her flesh. "And you'd better make it fast, before I lose control and mate you right here and now."

She did not have to be told twice. Naruto chuckled as he saw her blushing face turned away fro him. She pushed off of him and ran for the exit as fast as her legs would go. He wondered if she would now start researching every method of protection when mating with a demon, or just ways to deter their lust – if any such books or scrolls existed.

Fifteen minutes later, a young woman came in.

"You asked to see me, Raikage-dono?"

"Yes, I wanted you to join me for breakfast." A second later, the girl began to scream, but no one dared so much as to look at the bloody scene within.

Naruto felt he was ready. He had tested using the seven pronged seal on his clones over and over again. He couldn't test the unsealing method because the seal was not effective on the clones – though he had tried it on his dinner. The seal was essentially the same to remove as apply. Both required skin as a base with a chakra medium. The only difference was that the seal had to be inverted and the two would destroy each other.

Naruto created a clone. The clone held its hands with its thumbs together, The pinky fingers were curled into the palms of his hands while the ring, middle, and index fingers formed a circle up from the thumbs. A symbol of glowing chakra appeared on each of his fingers, with a larger one covering both thumbs. Tsukiya was standing by in case anything went wrong – at a safe distance of course.

"Fuuin: Seven Pronged Unseal!" Then, everything went dark.

"You stupid, idiotic, useless, trash! Filthy, brain-dead, rotten maggot." Naruto was slightly confused. Was he dead? Had his chakra system overloaded from the sudden release and killed him? Was this some sort of hell where an annoying, gravelly, and angry voice shouted curses upon him for eternity? A sudden sharp pain in his side rid him of that notion.

"Damn, you kick like a demon horse." Naruto opened his eyes. He couldn't see. "Where am I? I can't see!" That earned him a kick to the head.

"Be damned happy that it is only your sight. I restored your sense of hearing first so your brain could comprehend me telling you how how damn stupid you are, and then your sense of touch so I could show you."

"What's going on?" Naruto asked.

"That was an S class seal. You're a sealing beginner. What the hell do you think happened? You messed the whole thing up." Kyuubi ranted.

"I did it right!"

"If you had done it right it would have felt like someone dropped a mountain on your stomach. Instead you're stuck in here with me and half of your brain has been fried. Do you have any idea how many clones you had out when you got hit with that jutsu? There must have been thousands, if not tens of thousands. I was too busy keeping your brain from boiling from the massive torrent of chakra that was burning directly into your brain as every single one of those clones dispersed at the same time while you lost total control of your chakra coils. Since the chakra coils were messed up, the chakra couldn't reenter your system and that left it sitting where it entered into you. You're damned lucky I was here to siphon off the chakra before it could kill you and that the chakra current kept it from burning out all of your memories!"

"It was that bad?" Naruto asked. This earned him another kick, this time between the legs and he was left whimpering in the corner as he listened to Kyuubi mutter.

"At least you screwed up the seal pretty good. I should be able to break it properly if noone tries anything while you're asleep. And you had the good sense to send Yugito on a mission for a few days. She won't see you in your defenseless state and take advantage of it." Then Naruto's senses of smell and taste suddenly filled him with a rotting air. It was disgusting.

"What's that. It's like the smell of a thousand rotting and bloated corpses."

"That would be you. With your chakra circulation nullified, your body is stagnating. You might as well be dead."

"Why didn't this happen when I tested it. It worked fine that one time..."

"The one time where you immediately ripped out his throat before even waiting to see if there were any side effects?"

"Heh... That's a problem." Naruto groaned and tried to return from his mind scape. He was blocked by a strange weave of chakra that seemed to bind him and throw him back into his mind scape again. "Dammit! I'm trapped here."

"Damn right! That's what the seven pronged seal was doing! Your seal just threw you onto the other side of the barrier."

"Then break the damn seal. You said you could!"

"I can! But not until someone tries to repair it. I already have a trap set up."
