I do not own Naruto. Don't rub it in!
"Sup B!?" Naruto greeted his friend and fellow shinobi that was the container of the eight tail bijuu.
"Yo I see you weren't just foolin and ya brought ya girl for some schoolin!" Killer B instantly replied striking a pose.
Naruto just nodded smiling as a large sweatdrop formed on the back of his fiances head. He looked up to B more so than anyone else, as the man had done what he had always wanted to do and had been accepted and even praised as a hero and protector of Kumo. He was immensely strong, even being Kage level and was a very unique person with his own dreams and goals to accomplish. He definitely counted him as one of his closest companions, along with Shino, Anko, Kiba, Fu, and Tsubaki.
"Well iight then, but ya gotta give me yo word you'll hit the studio with me. We gonna spit bars til we tipsy, ya get me!?" B said in his unique rhyming vocab.
Understanding the "bar" tipsy double meaning Naruto grinned bigger and responded." If it's bars you want I'll bring the Sake, and even tip the hat that says I'm kage. Money on my mind and when I find Ms nine, I'll tail her even if she's six she's a clit and a dick."
B just stood quietly for a moment before busting out laughing and nodding his head while putting his hand to his chin. Naruto's skills were getting better and better. Their mixtape would be off the chain! Calming down and grabbing both of their shoulders he then shunshined them to the island turtle, disabling the protective barrier before taking them to the tailed beast temple. It was there that Fu could master the Nanabi and gain complete control of its massive power just as he had done so long ago. Arriving at their destination quickly B then ushered her inside after informing Naruto she'd have to handle her challenges alone. Naruto was very nervous about this, and he could be seen shifting about uncomfortably outside the temple's entrance for several minutes that seemed more like days to him.
He didn't like to let Fu out of his sight very much, and although he trusted B he still had to wander what she'd face within the temple. He never wanted to be away from Fu, and she reciprocated that desire even more than him. Maybe to other people she could be considered clingy, but Naruto loved it more than anything and was always overjoyed because of her company. She was his beautiful mint haired wifey, and nothing would ever change that. It was while he smiled and thought of his fiancee when he suddenly went on guard. He felt two chakra signatures approaching way too fast, and they had apparently just arrived at the edge of the island turtle, thought their velocity suggested that they were using shunshin.
As two familiar shinobi appeared before Naruto in a flock of crows and a vortex of water, his eyes widened and he instantly prepared for battle.
"Well, I honestly didn't expect to find you here Naruto. Tell me, how is my sickening younger brother doing?"
Looking at the form of Itachi Uchiha along with a smirking Kisame Hoshigaki, Naruto frowned deeply while avoiding eye contact before replying." Let's cut the chit chat you bastard! Tell me why you're here!? If you think you can take me feel free to try, you won't be the first shinobi I've killed!"
Itachi immediately corrected him saying." You are of no interest to me as of right now, however I am intrigued at the opportunity of testing your growth. As for our reason we're here for the eight tails jinchuriki to witness his capacity. As you should know information is a valuable asset."
"This kid sure has some guts huh Itachi? Might as well just cut his legs off after we beat him down so he won't be a problem later. How about It?"
Itachi didn't react to Kisame whatsoever and instead asked Naruto." Where is your headband Naruto? Did you really defect and join Kumo because of the respect their jinchuriki receive from the villagers?"
Naruto didn't answer that question but asked one of his own saying." Before we start answer me this. I know the sharingan controlled Kyubi, and so it must be able to control people as well. Am I right?"
Itachi simply stated." It's called Kotoamatsukami, and only a few Uchiha have ever achieved it. What is your reason for-"
Suddenly a wide smile appeared on Itachis face that even made Kisame a little nervous. Itachi then declared." I see... Kisame let's make this quick as I have some unfinished business to attend to."
Instantly chains busted from beneath the two Akatsuki members, and swiftly dodging them they were forced to counter Naruto's clone that immediately slung itself at them with the chains from its back once it rose from the ground. There was a chidori already formed that was thrusted toward Itachis face, as Naruto fired hair Senbon from in front of the temple while making shadow clones at the same time with half seals. While he still couldn't use elemental jutsu with one handed seals, yin and yang type jutsu were far more easier for this method.
Kisame just lifted his sentient sword samehada to shield himself from the barrage of needles, and Itachi sidestepped Naruto's chidori faster than the eye could see while sending a devastating uppercut to his clones chin dispelling it. He couldn't even make a comment before Naruto's clones appeared next to him in a shunshin, the three of them attacking simultaneously in different styles to see what would be most effective. Itachi was impressed to see Naruto use the same sort of shadow clone he used himself, along with chidori. Two clones of his own appeared in the same manner, fading into existence and countering the swift attacks that the Naruto clones lashed out with. One Naruto leapt using the fox style to swipe at him repeatedly, but he grabbed its arm and threw it towards another Naruto who flipped over it using hebi taijutsu sending the strong downward flip kick before twisting into many curving finger jabs directed at his eyes. He dodged all of them before bursting into a side kick, while the clone he threw cartwheeled and went through handseals firing many basketball sized fireballs at him. He weaved in and out of them all before disappearing in a flock of crows and reappeared behind the Phoenix flower clone cutting its neck with a kunai.
Kisame just swung his zanbato strongly at the clones that assaulted him with wind chakra blades, ending their existence all at once with a huge smirk on his face. This Naruto boy was actually competent, and seeing Itachi out the corner of his eye he noted that his only real companion seemed slightly impressed as well. Naruto's final clone then transformed into a hawk and flew up and over Itachi as the Uchiha launched a fireball without effort, and transforming again it went through three handseals before using the dust cloud to obscure the two Akatsuki members vision. While all this happened Naruto had been waiting for just the right moment and seeing his chance he created four more clones before going through five handseals to use the jutsu he learned from the scroll of seals. It was supposed to be the second Hokage's counter to the sharingan, and Naruto hoped it lived up to its purpose. Itachis eyes were just too much of a problem!
"Forbidden technique, Bringer of Darkness!"
Suddenly everything went pitch black within the half mile radius Naruto could manage, and he felt significantly tired after using the nin/genjutsu hybrid technique. He honestly hadn't been able to practice it as much as he wanted due to his clones reconstruction of wave, but he had used it many times along with his flow sensor technique to practice fighting blind. What he didn't consider in his haste to kill Itachi was that his partner was Kisame Hoshigaki for a very good reason. This was first realized when all four of his clones were intercepted before reaching Itachi by a swift swing of Kisames sword, and then Itachi calmly stated." Most impressive, you've learned the seconds jutsu to counter my visual prowess, however your mistake was not considering my partners own capacity."
As soon as these words were spoken the earth underneath Naruto exploded, and he barely dodged the upward slash from Kisame by rolling to the backwards. Chains shot from his back toward his unseen opponent, but they were nullified by Samehadas chakra absorption ability. Naruto only barely managed to unseal the Kiba swords to block the powerful follow up that sent him tumbling backward and jarred him badly. He didn't hesitate to end the seconds technique, and although he didn't want to face Itachi as well as Kisame he knew he stood no chance against someone who mastered silent killing. Haku had explained many of the dynamics of the mists famous combat method, and despite his sensor ability and its usefulness as a predictive technique he lacked the experience that Kisame had. And Kisame was hailed as the most powerful of the seven swordsman. If he was worse than Ameyuri then he at least needed to be able to see him.
As everything suddenly became visible once more Kisame halted his rapid advance and stared at the blades in Naruto's grasp in true shock.
"How did you get those boy!?"
Naruto smirked despite his slight dizziness and replied." I told you you wouldn't be the first shinobi I've killed! Now I'll show you how I killed Ameyuri in cold blood!"
Naruto then stabbed both swords forward aiming directly at Kisames chest from a distance, sending two bolts of lightning that intertwined and sped toward him at high speed. Kisame actually began laughing maniacally and absorbed the attack before bursting toward Naruto yelling." I was impressed before, but NOW I'M MORE EXCITED THAN I'VE BEEN IN YEARS! SHOW ME YOUR STRENGH BOY!"
Three tails of dark violet chakra suddenly surrounded Naruto surprising both Akatsuki members as five chains exploded from Naruto's back. There were the four he normally used along with one on the upper part of his back in the middle. Naruto now had the speed to match Kisame and slung himself around the man as his Zanbato impacted the ground where he had just been standing. Then Naruto slung himself into his improved raging Whirlpool technique, using all of his chains, the three tails, and the Kiba swords in the sideways twister that was one of his ultimate techniques. Kisame barely managed a replacement after being nearly shredded by the attack, and thus development actually caused Itachi to speak in shock." What!?"
Suddenly three Itachis were all around Naruto, and they all had his double edged ninjato in hand attacking from many angles all at once. Naruto managed to deflect most of the blows but received a few shallow cuts, and with a chakra infused roar the Itachi clones were forced back and faded from existence as Itachi burst into a flock of crows. However Naruto used his chakra cloak to extend an arm out that held a Kiba sword, and Kisame stepped in to block the attack as Itachi reformed directly in front of it. The legendary swordsman looked both angry and excited, and using one handed seals he flooded the battlefield with water to give himself the advantage as Naruto's chakra arm returned. The blonde felt a large amount of his chakra drain when Kisame stepped in, and sealing the Kiba away he went through half seals as he dodged multiple sharks of water along with fireballs that came in quick succession. A flock of black hawks appeared around him as he fired stake size spikes of blonde locks at the Akatsuki duo that evaded the attack. The hawks then flew towards them both at high velocity, blades of chakra along with sharp chains extending from their wings in an unavoidable assault.
That's when Shit got serious for real, and sinking underground Kisame decided to fuse with samehada while Itachi used his mangekyo technique that he never needed to use."Susanoo!"
Every one of the hundred plus hawks were dispelled by the ethereal body that surrounded Itachi, and the Uchiha suddenly fired many large fireballs directly at Naruto and the possible places he could dodge to based upon his speed. The boy just slipped under the ground, but he didn't stay under long before being uppercutted with enough power to cause the earth to split as a shark like Kisame began his true assault while laughing." GOOD, I SEE HOW YOU KILLED HER NOW! AND THERE I WAS WORRIED THAT SHE DISGRACED US!"
Kisames chakra level was nearly the same as Naruto's since he fused with his zanbato, and at their base level he had about twice as much as the teen. Now the match was in the Akatsuki duo's favor, at least until another powerful jinchuriki intercepted Kisame as he rushed toward an off balance Naruto." Lariat!"
Kisame however sensed the attack and avoided it with ease, but that was far easier than the follow up B attacked with. Three tails of his own bijuus chakra exploded from him as he drew seven swords all at once, twisting through the air much like Naruto had done earlier but far more controlled and precise. Kisame was heavily pressured by this but avoided him nonetheless, and they both had to jump away from the fireballs that impacted the ground where they were at.
"UZUMAKI STYLE, CHIDORI!"
A long arm of chakra shot from Naruto with extremely powerful and condense lighting surrounding it's hand, and despite its power the susanoo held it off, although Itachi began feeling the strained and decided to retaliate." Totsuka Blade!"
Naruto barely dodged the humongous flaming sword that would have killed him had it hit, and slinging himself at high speed with his chains he skidded crouched on all fours like an animal before unsealing the Kiba once again. Now he was going to finish Itachi once and for all, and channeling two tails of chakra into the blades purple lightning visibly crackled and chirped much like the chidori as he aimed them the Uchihas head. "Demon Thunder Wave!"
A humongous condense bolt of lightning shot at Itachi who calmly countered declaring." Amaterasu!"
The explosion was so huge that the tailed beast temple shook at the very foundation's, and both Kisame and B halted their battle as the two jutsu clashed for supremacy. The black flames of the amaterasu literally burned the dark purple lightning that pushed back at it before the explosions and both jutsu cancelled each other out although the flames still burned the stray electricity that bounced about wildly. It was at this moment when Itachi suddenly staggered and held his eye in pain, and Naruto seeing his chance slung himself toward Itachi while firing another bolt of lightning. Itachi still managed to narrowly avoid this but Naruto changed course and used his chakra chains to spin around like a tornado, and he finally managed to mortally wound Itachi as a thick chain dug into his ribcage. Itachi replaced himself at the last minute, but the damage still had been done. Naruto certainly had gotten more powerful, and it didn't even hurt his pride that he had been defeated by the teen. It just meant that The Leaf would have a capable protector, and slumping to the ground with blood flowing from his eyes and mouth another avatar died in Itachis place. He had witnessed enough of the battle between Kisame and B, and his partner could handle himself anyway. Plus it wasn't as if he was actually in any danger, but death was still distasteful regardless.
Kisame looked utterly gobsmacked at the cake Itachis death, so much so that he nearly was caught by a combination attack that Naruto and B used together. Naruto jumped high above Kisame using his chains to push upward, and then he used them again as anchors to pull himself down into a ridiculously strong downward X cut. Kisame avoided this but then B jumped off of Naruto's chain on his back twisting into a tornado of lightning cuts with his swords, and although he caught Kisame slightly off guard the Mist swordsman sunk underground again before many water dragons exploded from underneath B. The jinchuriki was only clipped by one of the dragons but they turned mid air and began to follow him, along with sharks that also came from underneath the earth. Then Naruto and B both somehow used another combination attack at the same time, sending arms of chakra underneath the ground and grabbing a surprised Kisame. Even though they felt their chakra drain they still managed to rip his body apart as blood and guts poured out from him leaving a disgusting fishy smell lingering. His body also turned into that of an unknown man, and sighing in relief Naruto and B faced each other and nodded in respect. They had both just defeated two Akatsuki members without major damage, but they did have to wonder if the real Akatsuki were more powerful than the avatars. They looked like regular people, or maybe low level shinobi that were kidnapped to be used in the terrible way they were.
"You alright bro, if you ain't let me know!?" B asked observing Naruto's weakened state. He knew the blonde could use three tails of chakra, but at the moment he only had one and even that tail looked a little thin.
"Yeah I'm OK, Akatsuki won't be winning today!" Naruto replied smirking at both his performance and his rhyme. When he mastered silent killing, the bringer of Darkness jutsu would be perfect for ending Tobi's life, Since it could only be ended by the user. There was the shunshin to escape though, and Naruto didn't have an answer for that problem yet which was a major issue. Tobi apparently knew time space jutsu as well, which was even worse than the shunshin. He'd have to finish him quickly and cleanly if he wanted to avenge his mother and bring down Akatsuki.
Naruto didn't even have time to ask how Fu was doing before another new arrival showed up unexpectedly, only being sensed by him as the beautiful woman appeared in a tornado of red fire.
"K-KURAMA!?"
"Oh I thought that was you using my power Naruto kun. And you're with a friend I presume? It's too bad since I'll be killing him now, just like the jinchuriki from Stone."
B instantly went into his second form as seven tails shot from Kurama toward his direction causing Naruto's eyes to widen. She was regaining her power!? This was very VERY bad. And she was killing jinchuriki!? Naruto focused his remaining power into another Thunder Wave attack like he used against Itachi, and his last tail disappeared until it would reform later after he rested up. Kurama didn't even seen to consider the attack as she batted it aside like it was nothing, and it caused a very large explosion of violet electricity that created a huge dust cloud. B then weaved in and out of her tails as they whipped at him from every direction, using his swords to deflect any that came too close. Then he spun into a vortex of blades and lightning at close range, but Kurama used her tails to slung herself around them like Naruto used his chains. She extended her hand out instantly creating a large wave of red flames that nearly incinerated B, but the rapper replaced himself and decided he couldn't hold back whatsoever. Even Kurama was surprised when he transformed into his eight tailed form, and the giant Oxtupus began gathering a large amount of chakra in its mouth. Kurama then decided to put this "human" in its place and she transformed as well just as B shot the bijuu dama attack at her large Fox body. Kurama showed impressive dexterity and agility and dodged the attack, and she began gathering her own youkai for her own tailed beast ball.
Then what happened next changed Naruto's life forever, and despite the fact that B tried to stop the attack it was still headed directly toward the tailed beast temple. And Fu. In an explosion that caused the very Island Turtle to groan in discomfort, the temple was obliterated, along with Naruto's fiance."NOO!FUUUUUUUU!"
