The Hated Prodigy
Thank you everyone for your support, just to let you know Yang is Animemonk's profile picture and Yin is my Profile picture but just to say I am not the best at drawing but there you go.
Ryuujin96: currently Yukari is the only one falling into darkness at the moment, there are other characters that will fall into darkness, stay in the darkness or get out of the darkness and vis versa. It is a possibility Yin's plan could fail but it may also succeed. Naruto may become a support character while I develop other characters but he will return to the main role soon. While Yukari may know that the conversation with Yin was off plus in the shinobi world darkness is common, Yukari is simply in denial about Yin like kimimaro to orochimaru.
BlackDragonShinigami: true those are bad circles.
'Hm...' Yang looked back towards the direction of the wave village 'that feeling, I remember it all to well... I need to get back there now'. Luckily being in the back Yang could make hand signs without others noticing, creating a clone to carry the unconscious Kiba, the real Yang jumped back. It didn't take long for Yang to return to wave, using a far greater speed than just a moment ago 'now I sense it, I can sense him now that I am close enough, I need to hurry'
Meanwhile Yin was standing at the edge of wave or what was left of it. Wave had been engulfed in the black flames of Amaterasu, every building, every ship, almost every person and even the water was being burnt to a crisp. It also didn't help, Yin had put a genjutsu on the villagers and the remaining thugs, to slaughter everyone else, of course Yin never put it on all of them but enough to satisfy him. However his attention was no longer on the village, it was the incoming person that was speeding his way towards him. 'It's been a while since I last faced him' Yin sighed as he turned his head seeing Yang land on the ground a few meters away from him. "Long time no see my brother, doing well it seems" Yin smirked.
Yang twitched in anger seeing the village he had just been in being burnt to nothing but returned the smirk regardless "Long time indeed brother, I see you are just the same as ever, I can't even remember the last time we met face to face".
"Last time was the time of Madara and Hashirama" Yin answered but waved his hand to change topic. "I am going to give you the same offer I did back then, give up on fighting for the light and join me in the darkness, you are on the losing side, join the winning side with me".
"No" Yang shouted an immediate response getting agitated about the burning village behind Yin. "I refuse to join the darkness, even if it costs me my life, I will not become someone who will kill innocents without a thought not to mention the darkness is tied with the light, it's not winning at all".
Yin laughed at Yang "are you serious? Well I guess you are stubborn, this is the shinobi world, a world full of selfish desires... After all the death and destruction, do you really think humans get to live free lives after that?" Yin pointed his sword at Yang.
"Of course I do, you are judging the whole human race based on only a select few" Yang unsealed a curved sword that seemed to take in the light instead of reflect it like ordinary metal would. "You are to quick to judge, especially considering you yourself are just as bad as the people you are judging if not worse" Yang gripped his sword tightly. "So I will give you the exact opposite offer because I still believe in the goodness in your heart and the fact Yukari has taking a liking to you, Join the light and actually help Yukari, be the older brother figure she so desperately craves".
Yin sighed as his sword became enveloped in the flames of Amaterasu "I will not, relying on others makes you weak, also why would I join the light, this world is not worth saving".
"Then make it worth saving, then save it, you should never give up on something worth fighting for" Yang's sword became enveloped in the flames of Ninigi, a whitish yellow flame.
"So we are to fight once more, fate really is a bitch isn't she" Yin got in a fighting position which was very unorthodox stance as Yin was almost covering his own sword with his body.
"It's not really a fight if you are a clone, your real body never actually came here did you?" Yang put his whole sword in front of him.
"Noticed that did you, hm... can't be helped but it is not like I would come here myself to destroy such a small village with no power" Yin leaped through the air swinging his sword rapidly. To the untrained eye, it was nothing but Yang could see the complexity and spun his sword rapidly to block the attack but wasn't expecting a clone to have as much power as it did, gaining several shallow cuts on his shoulders. "It looks like you have not been getting much stronger" Yin chuckled before putting a hand to his stomach, feeling a large amount of pain. He glared at Yang as his stomach was nearly cut fully often with the Ninigi flames burning wildly, Yin put his own Amaterasu flames against the Ninigi flames to cancel them out.
Yang did the same as Yin, only the flames were swapped around "I am amazed a clone was able to hurt me like that, even if it was your clone". Yang put his hands together and speed through hand signs quickly "Water Style – Rapid Torrent".
"Fire Style – Searing Migraine" Yin rushed through even more "Wind Style – Crushing Vortex".
Seeing the collaboration jutsu Yang hurried to do one himself "Lightning Style – Conductive Strain". Both collaboration jutsus hit each other, merging with one another before imploding before exploding, creating a deep misty smoke. Taking advantage of the cover, Yin leaped through the air with his sword ready. Having the same idea, Yang also charged forward until both met in the middle swords clashing, face to face. Yang landed far apart from Yin, he stood up as his cloak fell to the ground as it was cut in half.
Yin fell forward however, his left arm to his torso had been cut in half "So you haven't lost your touch, took me down like I was nothing, that heartlessness is all you need in this world to become strong".
"Not even you are heartless I can sense it besides you are only a clone I am not killing anyone heartlessly" Yang unsealed another cloak and put it on as his old one was not in wearable condition. 'I'm impressed, a clone cutting my cloak in half despite it being made of such a strong flexible metal, I will need to fix it or I will be in deep shit from boss lady'.
"As stubborn as ever..." Yin's clone broke away into the shadows once more
Yang looked away from Yin's clone "I will bring you into the light eventually brother but I have to save what remains of this village.
(Meanwhile)
Both Anko and Kurenai's teams along with the Yang clone made it to Konoha and were heading towards the Hokage's office with several Anbu following them do to Yang's appearance in the village. "This is weird" Naruto stated as he was carrying Anko bridal style, why was he doing this you may ask, simply he was the last on to refuse when Anko ordered one of her team to carry her.
"Who cares if it's weird, it's relaxing after all the hard work I did" Anko grinned in satisfaction.
"But I was doing hard work too and I also got injured so why am I carrying you?" Naruto asked getting annoyed
"Because I said so, consider this your training" Anko stretched "hey does anyone else want a lift too?"
"I swear if..." Naruto stopped as Katsumi instantly jumped on his back putting him off balance.
Yukari sighed "seriously have a sense of balance" she sorted his balance by jumping on his chest. "There, balance problem solved" Yukari smiled as if she achieved something.
"Were you saying something there Naruto?" Anko showed off a sly look but Naruto remained silent.
Yang shook his head "whipped by girls who are not girlfriends or more".
"Pathetic right?" Kiba laughed finally walking on his own.
"Pathetic, perhaps but Naruto is hopefully smart enough to realise, if he refuses then he is going to get hurt" Yang nodded. "While I would help him normally, I am not getting in the way of an angry woman".
"That is because women are scary when they want to be" Shino answered with all his wisdom. Kiba nodded shakily not wanting a repeat beating, Yang patted Shino's shoulder to let him know he was correct.
Eventually they made it to the Hokage's office, Anko, Yukari and Katsumi had gotten off Naruto at last. Knocking on the door, they walked in hearing Hiruzen shouting for them to come in "Team Anko and Kurenai reporting the wave mission"
"Good I have been waiting for your return" Hiruzen stood up from his chair to hand shake another man in the room beside him. "I hope we can sort this problem after?"
"Yes, of course Hiruzen, we will find a solution to this" a man of 5'8 with mid shoulder length wavy white hair with one lone strand of black hair which parted for his eyes. He had lava orange eyes, an athlete's build and had the face of being in his mid early 20s, he wore a dark robe and pants. The man turned to the door "I hope you completed your job successfully" he gave an almost innocent smile making dirty thoughts in the girls heads.
'Grr damn another guy that thinks he is all hot shit' Kiba complained mentally. The man walked between them, patting Yang on the back to move past him without tackling him and left the room, shutting the door behind him.
"So tell me, was the mission a success?" Hiruzen asked sitting back down in his chair and leaned forward on the desk. "And who is your friend standing over there?" he put his elbows on the desk to use his hands as a head rest.
"Yes lord Hokage, the mission was a complete success, there was no problems that caused any harm, I will give a detailed written report on the mission after" Anko bowed in respect.
"And I am Yang, I'm sure you have heard of me, I know... it's hard not to jump all over me like fan girls but please contain yourselves for a little while longer" Yang struck a pose.
Hiruzen sighed 'another Jiraiya has appeared, I hope he can be serious once in a while as well'. He put his hand in the air making a signal "you will get your pay checks within a week, you can go now but I expect a report soon". Kurenai nodded before leading the teams out of the room, once the door closed, Hiruzen's eyes narrowed. "Now what is a SSS rank missing ninja in my office?" he spoke seriously "Yang, Kami's Paladin or do you prefer, Kami's Medic"
"Just call me Yang but I do prefer Kami's Paladin" Yang stopped posing and stood up straight. "I have no ill intentions against this village, I assure you". He looked up to the hidden Anbu and opened his cloak to show his hands "I have no weapons on hand as you can see". Yang looked back down at Hiruzen "as you know from my bingo book entry, I have not done anything terrible, while I admit I have taken lives, they were only for those whose crimes are unforgivable".
"I am aware of how you act by the book but by person may be different, after all in the shinobi world you must see through deception" Hiruzen stated wisely. "I also have to figure out if you are an imposter or not and your intentions".
"Of course, it is smart to think those things, that is required of a leader after all" Yang praised. "But shall we discuss some things, you can decide after we finish our chat".
"Yes we shall but" Hiruzen walked from behind his desk "I cannot keep someone like you in my village without informing the council, all necessary precautions must be taken after all". Yang nodded in understanding, Hiruzen glanced up "Anbu, call the council to be here in 10 minutes". Feeling the Anbu leave Hiruzen motioned towards Yang. "Follow me"
It was an awkward silence for the ten minutes as they waited for the council members to appear, especially for Yang who was the centre of attention. Yang took note of the council members, civilian members were large in number yet combined had as much power as the hokage, politically only of course. The clan heads together had the most power in the village but that rarely happened as they were always at each others throats. Then there was the few odd ones out, the hokage and his two advisers, Danzo and the white haired man he saw in the office before hand.
"Why have you called on us lord hokage and who is 'this' stranger in our council room" The white haired man spoke with a hidden distaste but Yang noticed finally realising the simple fact.
Hiruzen turned over to the man "yes of course Yin I will just start the meeting now".
'Yin is here, he is no clone either, this is the real him so my real body went after his clone, this is bad' Yang glared slightly at Yin 'so this is how he has been getting close to Yukari and why she trusts him so much, where he is sitting, he is Hiruzen's top adviser'.
Realising he was missing what Hiruzen was saying, Yang started to listen in again "...As you know having one such as him in our village can be very beneficial..."
"Or it can lead to our downfall Hiruzen" Danzo spoke up but retained his calm voice.
"I have to agree with Danzo, we do not know this man, it could be dangerous to let someone unknown into our village" Shikaku, head of the Nara clan spoke.
"Or it could be dangerous for our enemies, think about the power we could have with this man on the front lines" a cocky civilian smirked.
"Yes and think of the profits there are to be made in winning wars" another civilian drooled with his own greed. "Don't you all agree, we can crush anyone without much loss if we have someone of his level on our side" the civilians shouted in agreement "don't you agree Mr. Yin sir that we will be a stronger force". The civilian tried to convince Yin, who arguably had most influence on the council being the Hokage's top advisor and was on good terms with all the clans.
Yin sighed "that would be unwise, to attack other villages with such arrogance will lead to our down fall, the usual neutral villages with attack us, we will lose once all villages start their assault on us". He sneered down at Yang "don't believe every stranger that comes in here, who says he is actually here to help, you never know when a enemy sends a spy in, it can all be an act being a mysterious 'helper' to us". Yin calmed the civilian side down "I say we should lock him up and get answers, he came with the team that rescued wave country correct, he was seen heading back to the village, for reasons unknown, parhaps we could ask wave country if they had seen this hooded man come back to their village".
Yang frowned in anger, not something he did often but he was going to be framed for a slaughter if Yin implying that had anything to do with that. 'Damn he is trying to get rid of me in anyway I can, by making me an enemy of the leaf and keeping me away from his plans'. Yang gritted his teeth in frustration "well that is fine if you want to check, they will have nice things to say about me but if you must, you must, right?"
"Yes we shall" Hiruzen stated "I will send a team to investigate".
"May I suggest locking our guest Yang in one of the anbu cells until all information is found out" Yin suggested
"No we can't just throw him in jail for wanting to join our village" Hiruzen refused "but he will be escorted to make sure of anything troubling, meeting adjourned ". Yin stood up quickly storming out of the room with a couple of sword using Anbu following him in plain sight.
'I hope my real body helps wave quickly or I will be blamed for everything' Yang was dragged out of the room roughly by an Anbu.
(Meanwhile)
Naruto was being dragged by Jiraiya once more. Well not exactly dragged, 'convinced' to walk with him. "Now Naruto I... hm what is that feeling" Jiraiya looked behind him seeing a few women with evil auras cracking their knuckles.
"Jiraiya have you done something perverted recently?" Naruto asked.
Jiraiya hummed in thought "no I was just creating art... by looking in the hot springs"
Naruto sighed "oh great... now I have to run again and I just got a break".
"Just deal with it and run" Jiraiya sprinted with Naruto shortly behind, the toad sage looking for a escape route "Naruto lets hide in there" Jiraiya pointed towards a eerie looking bar with a karaoke sign on the top. "Hurry, inside before they see us" Jiraiya and Naruto quickly got inside, shutting the door behind them.
"Well I think we are safe n..." Naruto fell to the floor, his face green.
"N-Naruto y..." Jiraiya fell to one knee "stay strong Naruto" he tried to save Naruto with his words but it was futile as he fell face first unconscious.
The reason they fell staring them right in the face "Hello my youthful friends, did you come to train your eyes and mind after training your body like me". Gai grinned with sparkly teeth, behind him was a group of wrinkly old men with hard ons "come on my youthful friends, did you come to dance as well or did you want some of the youthful pills the other youthful men are on".
"I-I want... to... die..." Jiraiya spoke his final words as his soul tried to flee from his mouth.
