Hey guys thanks for the reviews and the support you give to this story.
Please note that as I mentioned before my Akatsuki will be different from the canon ones so please don't expect hard core psycho killers. They will be the main villains in this story but as I have done with Orochimaru so shall it be done to them, well sort of.
There are some concepts in this chapter that might sound offensive to certain groups of people so I apologies in advance if this offends you.
Chapter 33
Previously
"Well if you think this is insane wait till we move on to water. You will be playing with whirlpools. Anyway kid good luck and no clones. But before I go be prepared for the two guests you will meet. Bye" D Naruto said as he disappeared leaving two shell shocked ninja. Okay Jiraiya thought he knew the best insane training methods but this guy was on another level of crazy. Naruto just sighed and started his training while they walked heading for a town that was about to be a weird warzone.
A badly beat up Zetsu then intercepted his compatriots who ran for their lives putting as much distance between them and the village. After that Zetsu relayed to the two pieces of infor he managed to dig up. First Danzo and his ROOT were no more and secondly the jinchuuriki was out of the village with Jiraiya. So this was their chance to capture the boy.
And so the two S ranked criminals headed for the small town to intercept their target. His bodyguard was a known pervert so a smooth plan was already formulated to get rid of him so they can achieve their objective. It was going to be a very interesting meeting.
Now
The journey to the nearest town was an annoying one for Naruto. Jiraiya kept pestering him about making him his apprentice or signing the toad contract or training. Seriously the dude was persistent as a guy desperate for sex. Naruto lost count of the number of times he wanted to ditch Jiraiya. The only thing that saved him was that they just arrived in town.
"For the last time Jiraiya I don't need training from you. I have got enough people torture I mean training as it is. And that training is enough" Naruto said with a sigh, for the I lost counth time. This guy really is persistent. If there was a girl on Jiraiya's raider whom Jiraiya is interested in, Naruto pitted the girl.
Somewhere in a casino a blond haired big boobed woman sneezed as she thought that someone was talking about her. She looked at her hand which wasn't a good one. She lost again.
"Shizune time to bolt" she shouted already halfway out of the casino.
Back to Naruto.
"Okay let's drop the matter for now and focus on finding Tsunade" Jiraiya said already thinking of hitting some brothels to gather 'intel'.
"She is not her" Naruto said. This surprised Jiraiya.
"And how do you know that?"
"How many time do I have to keep reminding you that I am a sensor. I don't sense anyone with a high chakra capacity like yours or a suppressed one at that. You do the math" 'although I do sense trouble nearby' Naruto thought having picked up two suppressed signatures with malicious intent. Probably the guys D Naruto was talking about.
"Damn kid way to make a mission less fun. Anyway let's find a motel and ..." Jiraiya all of a sudden stopped talking as he looked in a certain direction with a goofy grin. Naruto rose a brow as he looked in the direction Jiraiya was looking.
In that direction was a beautiful woman who was calling Jiraiya in a sensual manner. Now let's look at the situation from two perspectives of these men. For Jiraiya it was boobs, ass, mini skirt and maybe I will get laid without paying. For Naruto it was seduction, genjutsu and someone is gonna end up dead.
Seriously what the hell is with Jiraiya. For a legend he sure is stupid. This was real plain old seduction and the dude controlling her was doing a bad job at hiding it. I mean from a sea of good-looking young men she just so happens to be smitten by an old dude?
From the looks of it it's an Uchiha genjutsu which means either it's Obito or Itachi. He was leaning more on it being Itachi since he could sense and smell something fishy (Kisame). That guy has a lot of chakra on him. Man it's clear these guys have a plan to separate him from Jiraiya by preying on his weakness. Women. Jiraiya might be mighty powerful but he was also mighty stupid.
" Naruto go book yourself a room and find something to eat I will be back" Jiraiya said with a pervy giggle as he handed Naruto a huge stack of money. Probably try to show the girl he was loaded. At least he got a lot of money out of it. Good luck Jiraiya you will need it for when that genjutsu wears off.
Naruto took the money booked himself a room in a motel almost out of town. If there is going to be a fight then it would have to be out of town. A fight in the middle of town would put him in a bad spot as he would be trying to save civilians while those two won't give a damn about collateral damage.
When Naruto got into his room he started weighing his options based on what he could sense from the enemy and what information he got. His Replacement zone won't work because of that freaky sword Kisame has plus Itachi might figure out his technic since he hadn't made a seal to hide chakra outside his body.
What a pain. Well his options were limited at the moment. Going all out wouldn't be a good idea because the Akatsuki would know about his abilities before the time comes to face them for real. The town also won't survive so that's a no. But what he knew was they will try to capture him so that's his advantage over them. So time to go the old fashioned way, Naruto style hehehehe.
Soon he sensed the two coming to his door then they knocked. Mmmmh how polite of them. Time to fool around. He went to the door and opened it. When he did, he resisted the urge to laugh. For an organization of S ranked criminals, they sure are not subtle. Huge oversized cloaks and straw hats just screamed 'hey look we are suspicious guy here'. Yah nothing subtle about their outfits.
"Naruto Uzumaki" the short one presumably Itachi stated not asked in a stoic manner typical of a psychotic mass murderer.
"Listen here you jackasses for the last time I didn't order sushi (looking at Kisame) or a gay ass pretty boy (looks at Itachi)" Naruto shouted rudely before he closed the door. The two criminals looked at each other confused.
"Well that just happened. Wait why did he call me sushi!" Kisame shouted realising what the kid called him. It's not his fault he was born from the fishman clan.
"Ah Kisame, do I look gay?" Itachi asked his partner who looked away. Damn why does everyone say he looks gay. At least Deidera has it worse. Now back to the task at hand. They knocked the door again. Naruto opened the door and looked at the guys again like he never saw them before.
"Congratulations to the happy couple. May you live long happy lives and have many kids. So which one is the sword and which one is the sheath" Naruto asked enjoying the look of confusion on the two's faces. It so much fun messing with people's heads.
"What?" Kisame asked.
" Come on don't be shy. You know what I am talking about. The sausage and the bun. You know husband and wife or something like that" the moment Naruto finished saying that both criminals' eyes widened in horror. Where the hell did the kid get such outrageous ideas.
"Oh hell no fuck you kid." Kisame shouted without even thinking. Naruto grinned in his head.
"No way dude I am into actual chicks not dude chicks. I don't want my ass to be victimized by your Mr pee pee. And don't say such things in front of your husband or wife or whatever" Naruto said backing away while covering his behind acting all scared
"What gave you that idea?"
"You were coming out of the honeymoon suite" Naruto said in a deadpan tone. He has sensed them in that room. Why they chose the room is way beyond him.
"You see Itachi I told you it was a bad idea. Now the kid thinks we were shagging" Kisame blamed his partner. He had a feeling a lot of people would get some funny ideas.
"Be that as it may you are coming with us Naruto" Itachi said in his usual monotone voice ignoring Kisame. In his head however he was lamenting why everyone thinks he is gay.
"No way my mom told me not to go with strangers and you guys look fishy to me" Naruto said directing his gaze towards Kisame who looked pissed off. Why does everyone keep making fish pans everywhere he goes. First in Kiri then the Akatsuki now this kid.
"Just come with us" Itachi said with a sigh. This kid is really annoying. Why did they have to take the kid now anyway. It's too early to start collecting Jinchuuriki so why did they have to deal with this annoying brat. The kid was going to drive them crazy, I mean Kisame looks ready to kill the kid and Itachi was tempted to let him do it.
Naruto for his part smirked. They didn't suspect a thing. He had been preparing for this since he sensed them. First he raised a barrier that nullified Samehada's ability to sense chakra in his room. Next he created a clone to go with the criminals in a certain direction which the original was busy setting things up. Messing with these guys will be a 'blast'.
Looking his door Naruto went with the criminals without putting up a fight much to their surprise. They got out of the motel and started heading toward the outskirts of the town as Naruto led them. On the way out he saw a stall that sells flowers for funerals so he went and bought the round one. The two criminals just looked at him oddly. Kid's crazy buying funeral flowers for himself.
Naruto returned and then threw the flowers around Itachi's neck. Itachi looked confused at the gesture.
"For your funeral. Don't say I didn't get you anything" Naruto told the confused Itachi. Seeing his confusion, he clarified. "I mean you are dying right so the flowers are for you when you kick the bucket. Just take time to appreciate them. Hey fishy what did you get him anything for his funeral?"
"How the hell did you know that" Kisame asked. It was a closely kept secret that Itachi was terminally ill and will die in a few years. Only a handful of people knew this and Kisame was one of them and he was the only one in the Akatsuki who knew. So how did this kid know and what else does he know.
"Well it's pretty easy. I have this ability to see people about to die. Most of the time I see reapers hovering around people and Itachi here has lots of them (bullshit he just sensed that while reading Itachi). You could say you are on death's door" Naruto said nonchalantly.
"You are lying. There is no such ability. Someone must have told you" Itachi said in a monotone voice as he analyzed Naruto. The boy was telling the truth from what he could read because the boy showed all the signs that he was telling the truth. That in itself told him the boy was lying and he was good at it.
"Duh what was your first clue. Yah someone told me then a bunch of other people but don't worry they won't tell anyone. Well maybe a couple hundred... thousand people. I am sure many would be very happy" Naruto said.
"You are pulling our legs aren't you?" Kisame asked getting really annoyed by the kid's antics.
"Yah I am. It will make the road trip more enjoyable rather than walking around with two socially inapt people. By the way nice oversized cloaks, they can surely hide a lot of activities. I mean you could masturbate in public and no one would see that. Look at you and your fishy grin and Itachi master of the poker face, no one will be able to tell" Naruto said.
Well it was true the cloaks were too big enough to hide weapons and stuff and hand movements. All one needs is to keep your emotions in check and you can wax in public and no one will know. Unless of course you blow it when you release.
"I am starting to hate this kid. Can I kill him now" Kisame asked his partner. But the kid had a point maybe he should try that sometime in one of their meetings, those are so boring it would be a good way to pass the time.
"No Kisame we need him alive. So Naruto how is my weak brother. I am sure you are good friends" Itachi asked wanting to know more about his brother and his relationship with his team.
"Good friends? Are you kidding me. That gay ass punk is mentally unstable. I mean you did mind fuck him real good. The tweep is a flight risk and soon to be homicidal in my book. Good job being the good big brother by the way. Oh I have been meaning to ask, if you wanted the clan to be revived then why did you leave that dude alive? You like boys, he likes boys, no little Uchiha in the future, Uchiha clan dead for sure. Guess it runs in the family. Poor aunt Mikoto she really wanted grandkids only to be blessed with two sons who have the hots for sausages"
Kisame was so confused. He really hated the kid but he loved the jabs he threw at Itachi. So far the stoic Uchiha had been popping veins a lot. During their partnership Itachi was always an emotionlessly robot but this kid made him show some fun facial expressions. What's even more funny was that Itachi didn't even have a clue that he was making them. He guessed the kid was one of those people you just love to hate.
"Can you please stop saying we are gay. Sasuke will revive the clan soon and he won't be a flight risk" Itachi said but inwardly he frowned at his brother's behaviour. Something must be done to stop it. Maybe he should pay him a visit.
"Says the crazy looney who murdered his clan because of a stupid nickname. What was it again oh Tachi-chan. That's what your mother then the rest of the clan called you right. No matter how many dangerous missions you did and the ranks you achieved you were always Tachi-chan to them" Naruto said in a dismissive manner. Damn he was on a roll. He could go all day just making fun of these guys.
"Hahahaha Tachi- chan now that's a good one. It sounds more like a little kid's name. Wait till the other guys here of this." Kisame laughed. What a very confusing encounter with this kid. He wanted to kill the kid and he also wanted to keep him so he could bug Itachi some more. I mean look at the expressions Itachi was making.
Itachi took some time to calm down and ignore the situation. The kid really got under his skin very easily. So he did the wise thing which was to shut up. No need to give the kid more ammo to fire on him. He regretted leaving a roll of duct tape with him so he could tape this kid's mouth shut. He was getting on his nerves.
As they got to the outskirts of the town Naruto suddenly came to a halt prompting his 'captors' to also stop wondering why he stopped. For Naruto preparations were ready. Time to get foxy.
"Well it's been fun hanging out with you but I gotta go home the perv might be worried sick"
"You are not going anywhere or you will suffer the consequences" Itachi threatened activating his sharingan casting a genjutsu on Naruto. He was surprised when Naruto just rose a brow and looked directly into Itachi's eyes. Itachi tried and tried again but base level genjutsu didn't work on the boy.
"Why doesn't genjutsu work on you?" Itachi asked genuinely curious. Sharingan enhanced genjutsu always worked on people even if they could break it. To meet someone totally immune to genjutsu is unheard of.
"Wouldn't you like to know. So we are fighting right. I gotta warn you though so listen well don't pop me or you will regret it." Naruto said before he attacked at decent speeds feeling the enemy out. He had already established that they won't kill him and he didn't want to give away much of his abilities. Also this gave him the opportunity to acquire the sharingan. He already got a full blood Uzumaki and a Senju. Sasuke was weak and Naruto didn't like him so Itachi was the only viable option for now at least.
Naruto charged at them with two kunai in hand. When he was close he threw the kunai between the enemy. The enemy would have ignored the kunai had they not seen the explosive tags attached to the kunai (this was done on purpose mind you. He could have used his exploding kunai). The kunai exploded between the two forcing one to jump away and the other to block much of the impressive explosion with his sword. But his plan had worked to effectively separate the two.
When the two separated threee more clones jumped into action. Two went for Kisame while the other one went to assist the first clone with Itachi. In a tree somewhere Naruto and Ranga were watching the show eating popcorn.
"Master are you sure this will work. I should be down there fighting those two. I am more than capable of handling them" Ranga complained.
"You just want to take a bite out of the blue fishy one don't you" Naruto gave Ranga a knowing look causing his summons to look away in embarrassment.
Naruto had already planned for the fight. Since he was almost arguably the best sensor he could keep track of his enemies from a distance while completely hiding from them. Plus here he could make more clones if those fighting the enemy were destroyed and these idiots will have to fight over and over again. I mean he could make thousands of clones after all.
Clones vs Itachi
When Itachi landed he was surprised to see two Narutos facing him. In the distance he could see Kisame was facing the same predicament. So which is it, elemental clones which were a bit easy to make or shadow clones? Maybe shadow clones since he is from Konoha and a Jinchuuriki. It's going to be a pain identifying the real one that is if he is even among the clones.
"Very good Naruto-kun. Separating us will give you a slight fighting chance. However" Itachi blurred out of existence then appeared behind a clone aiming to dispel it with a chop. He was surprised when the clone dodged and the other one immediately attacked with speeds matching his own.
The clones then simultaneously worked together to fight off Itachi. What impressed Itachi was the level of taijutsu the clones were using and their teamwork. They weren't giving him a chance to rest or strategize. They attacked him relentlessly. Were one used punched the other used kicked then they alternated. Itachi was finding it difficult to handle them without the sharingan so he jumped back creating some distance while going through a chain of hand seals.
"Fire style: fireball jutsu" Itachi declared as he launched a fireball at the clones who dodged it. The clones then through two separate hand seals (just for show of course. No need to tip of the enemy he can do these particular jutsu without hand seals.)
"Fire style: fireball jutsu"
"Wind style: Great breakthrough" the clones declared launching their own offense at the enemy. The two jutsu combined creating a blazing gust which made the Uchiha curse before he was consumed. The clones didn't need to look around as they jumped into the air avoiding two hands which tried to grab them.
Itachi thought he would entertain the kid and see what he can do. So far he could tell that genjutsu was useless and he still wondered why, the boy's taijutsu was impressive together with his speed and Jutsu were also noteworthy. This kid should be jonin not genin.
"Fire style: Grand fireball jutsu" Itachi declared launching a huge fireball at the clones. Maybe bigger is better.
The Naruto clones went through a set of hand seals he recognized except for the last one. With his sharingan deactivated he couldn't copy the jutsu. The clones started moulding balls of chakra converted into the respective elements. The ball started spinning violently creating a high-pitched sound. They then launched their respective jutsu at the incoming attack.
"Fire style: sonic fireball jutsu"
"Wind style: sonic wind bullet"
Clones vs Kisame
While Itachi was busy with taijutsu and ninjutsu specialist clones Kisame was dealing with sealing and weapons masters. As soon as the explosion settled Kisame came face to face with two clones. One was wielding a pair of nun chucks while another one was wielding a bo staff. Both weapons were engraved with seals that increased and decreased the weight of the weapons at the user's command.
"You know kid my baby here is going crazy about your chakra. She want to just devour it so get ready" Kisame said with a grin as he took out his unbandaged his creepy looking sword. Both clones didn't say anything to the creepy man who most likely is getting blow jobs from his creepy sword during his spare time.
The clones attacked in sync starting with the one with the bo staff. At first Kisame didn't take them lightly as he casually blocked the strike from the bo staff with one hand on his sword. Kisame found his defence overwhelmed by an ungodly force from the strike pushing him back. Before he could ponder on what was happening he was forced to block a strike from the nun chucks which were having a golden glow on them.
Kisame was forced to use both hands to stop the attack but even then he could feel the pressure of the attack. His sword was screaming in pain from the impact. Those weapons were not chakra enhanced otherwise Samehada would have absorbed the chakra so what the hell. The kid should not be that strong. If only he knew.
Both clones like the ones fighting Itachi were working in perfect sync against the big guy. Kisame the famous swordsman from Kiri was immediately put on the defence by a freaking genin. Each strike send strong vibrations through his body and craters were formed on the ground if the clones hit the ground a testament of the strength behind the strikes.
It was evident that the monster of the mist was outclassed in strength by a mere genin, how embarrassing. So Kisame decided to fight with more ferocity than before but the clones were nimble enough to avoid then counter with strong strikes. The smirk that once adorned his face now became a frown. Damn this isn't good time to change strategy. Jumping back he went through a few hand seals.
"Water style: shark bomb jutsu" Kisame announced his attack. A water shark missile shot towards the two clones at blinding speeds. The clone with the nun chucks jumped forward and performed the Golden Musk that effectively stopped the attack no problem. Kisame clicked his teeth in annoyance. This was going to be a pain. At least the kid is fun to play with.
Clones vs Itachi
Itachi's eyes widened when he saw his fireball being penetrated and dispersed by two tennis ball sized wind and fireball traveling at super Sonic speeds. The sonic booms were proof of how fast they were. If he wasn't a clone he would have been forced to use his Susanoo. Even then he doubted a hastily put up Susanoo could have stopped those attacked because they travelled for at least two kilometres before they caused a huge explosion. Okay time to get serious.
Itachi appeared out of the ground sharingan activated. He will have to end this farce quickly. Only problem, he couldn't see the two clones. All he could see were two black smudges where the clones were supposed to be. This was his mistake. He suffered a beat down from opponents he couldn't see. First what he assumed to be a punch in the face then a kick to the gut and so on. This vexed him a lot as the sharingan was rumoured to see through every jutsu.
He did his best to use his instincts to defend and dodge but since he relayed too much on his visual prowess he couldn't defend from most of the attacks. Right now he looked worse for wear as he was bloody and the clones made sure to rip his clothes for some reasons. Deciding to deactivate his sharingan he was forced to dodge a kick from a clone he could very well see.
What the hell was going on?
"You like? I call it The Smudge. It's a seal I created for people like you with doujutsu. Activate your freaky eyes to copy my jutsu then I disappear. Good counter right? This will force you to fight me on an even field even though you are actually not here. That's one creepy jutsu you are using" the clone said as they had already noted something wrong with the two criminals.
Itachi just blinked before he frowned. This isn't good. The kid already developed a counter for the sharingan this early and a lethal too. If Naruto wanted to kill him he would have done so. And how did he know that this wasn't the real Itachi? He was interrupted from his musings by a series of explosions followed by Kisame landing next to him. He looked just as bad as Itachi although he was healing thanks to his freaky sword.
The two clone Kisame was fighting landed near the other clones Itachi was fighting. Damn this isn't what our two criminals expected. If the others find out they will never hear the end of it. They had a reputation to keep after all.
"Hello Itachi I see things are going as smooth as they were on my side" Kisame said in an annoyed tone.
"We greatly underestimated him. He is very good that's for sure. He even had a counter for my sharingan" Itachi droned trying to keep himself from showing his annoyance. Kisame was very surprised. Damn whoever trained this kid did a good job. Plus someone must be feeding him information about the Akatsuki if the fight had taught him anything. The kid knew their strengths and weaknesses and he knew the skills to use against them.
"No kidding. When he said don't pop me he really meant it. Who knew the kid can make exploding clones which are this strong to go tore to tore with me. Oh and if he throws weapons at you run they explode too how freaking annoying" Kisame explained. This was the reason he lost most of his clothing.
Off in the distance Samehada felt another strong signature coming at them fast. She relayed the information to her owner who frowned. Damn that has got to be Jiraiya. And he really didn't want to fight him. The kid can live for now at least.
"We gotta go Itachi Jiraiya is coming. And you kid next time we meet I will make sure to kill you. I won't underestimate you" Kisame shouted.
"I am glad you have grown strong Naruto. Help my brother to get stronger so that I can fight him at his best." Itachi said but frowned when he saw the smirk on the clones. The kid was planning something.
Off in the distance Naruto was grinning like a mad man. He knew they were going to leave as he sensed Jiraiya coming to their position. But just because they were leaving didn't mean they won't leave with a parting gift he was hoping they would love. Shiro and Ranga just sweat dropped as they saw Naruto cackling like a mad man.
Back to the fight
"Oh you guys are leaving. Oh that's a shame. And here I had invited someones who were dying to see you. Especially you Itachi. GIRLS I FOUND AN ALMOST NAKED ITACHI AND KISAME" Naruto shouted. Itachi's eyes widened when he realized why Naruto focused on ripping his clothes.
No he wouldn't. No he didn't bring Itachi's worst nightmare here. And how did he know about that anyway.
"Itachi-kuuuuun!" came a familiar shout that send shivers down his spine. Kisame looked at his partner with mild confusion as to why he was scared. That's when he saw them. A sea of women, no, freaking fangirls popped out of the woods making a beeline for the two criminals.
Itachi was sweating bullets all instincts shaped in Konoha when he faced similar situations screaming at him to run. But he couldn't why because he recognized most of them. Back then they were kids and now they have grown into mature women who were filled up in all the right places. Worse he had his sharingan activated by mistake so the images were committed to memory.
Every curve, the wet hair, the bouncing boobs, their fully naked forms. Yes they were naked, all of them. One of them jumped into the air spreading her legs giving Itachi a good view of her sacred place, whose sharingan was furiously memorizing every detail. It didn't take long for little Itachi to stand at attention wanting some action. Luckily his cloak hide his erection.
"Itachi what the hell are you doing snap out of it. We gotta ... FISH BABES!" Kisame being the sane one tried to help his partner since human women didn't appeal that much to him but Naruto had something planned for him. A hoard of naked fish women and damn did they look sexy.
Both criminals did nothing as they were swarmed by the women. By the time the women got to them both men were already in lala land blood gushing from their noses. They didn't notice the women glow then blew up in a massive explosion leaving no remains. It could be said that both men were already dead from nosebleeds before explosion handled the rest. What a way to go.
"Well that's something I didn't think that would work. I was hoping to buy more time until the pervert gets here. Anyway allz well that's ends well hehehe" Naruto said as he spotted Jiraiya arriving in the clearing making a dramatic entrance.
"You call him a pervert but the real one is you. I mean how many brain cells did you destroy just to come up with those transformations. Wait till the girls find out mwahahaha" Shiro said making Naruto's eyes widen. They will surely kill him if they find out and Zabuza will surely gut him like a fish.
"No you wouldn't"
"Yes I will"
"How much do you want?"
"A month's worth of carrots"
"Two weeks worth and you have yourself a deal" Naruto bargains and Shiro quickly agreed. As they went to the clearing to meet a freaking out Jiraiya, Ranga came back finishing what looked like a white leg.
"Ahhhh didn't know veggie man tasted so good. Should have put more effort into getting the other one" Ranga said in-between bites.
"Please tell me you didn't eat the spy" Naruto looked at Ranga who looked away in embarrassment. Shesh what's with Ranga and wanting to eat everything he sees and deems a threat/treat.
"Brat you are alive. Are you okay? Did they hurt you? What happened?" Jiraiya frantically asked Naruto checking him over for injuries which he had none. If anything ever happened to the kid Kushina would find him and do some unimaginable staff to him.
"I am fine perv let's go. It's over at least for now. And dude for such a legendary Shinobi you sure suck. I mean I saw that genjutsu a mile away" Jiraiya looked sheepishly. Yah that was his fault he should have seen that one coming. Anyway Naruto gave him a washed down version of what happened leaving out the part about his anti sharingan seal. He didn't want the old man bothering him about it then brag that he the great Jiraiya created such a seal.
They went back to the motel, Ranga stayed in Naruto's shadow while Shiro went back home. He was just here to watch the show. But he was very happy about his very fruitful journey. As they slept Jiraiya kept wondering just how strong Naruto is to hold off such strong opponents at a young age too. Also he was wondering why the Akatsuki were on the move they should not be after Jinchuuriki until a few year to come. But most importantly the kid needs to learn the rasengan whether he liked it or not.
In a cave somewhere
Our two Akatsuki members woke up after their jutsu became undone. You could see they were sweating profusely and their noses were bleeding. The drawback of the jutsu is that you can see and experience what the sacrifice experiences except for the pain of course. So that last bit did a number on them especially Itachi whose sharingan recorded everything.
"Damn that kid when I get my hand on him I am going to strangle him to death" Kisame ranted angrily while wiping the blood from his nose. That kid had humiliated them and worse two zetsu clone saw everything even though one was eaten by whatever it was that ate it. By now everyone in the organization knows what happened. It's going to be an awkward meeting.
"This isn't going to go away anytime soon" Itachi stated while looking at his pants. Kisame sighed and agreed. They will have to take care of this but they are supposed to report now. Maybe the kid was right, these cloaks are too big to see movement happening inside. So they will hold the meeting while taking care of their little problem. All they had to do was master their emotions and things will be swell.
Appearing on ten fingers of a weird looking statue the Akatsuki members meet for their meeting in hologram form. Leading the meeting was the leader with Rinnegan eyes and piercings on his face. He looked like the no nonsense type because of how serious his face was.
"Report" the leader ordered.
"It's as the rumours say. The kyuubi Jinchuuriki was trained by someone skilled. His skills as a Shinobi are superb. Given time he might be a challenge for us on his own. From what we can tell he is skilled in almost every aspect of the Shinobi way. But what's troubling is that he found a perfect counter for the sharingan" Itachi reported making everyone surprised.
It was no secret that the kyuubi Jinchuuriki was getting stronger due to being trained by an unknown variable. Their spy in Danzo's ranks managed to gather that much before the ROOT was rooted out hehehe. However from Itachi's praise and Zetsu's report they had no idea the kid had grown this much. But to possess a perfect counter for the sharingan was worrisome.
"Explain what you mean by perfect counter?" the leader asked his eyes narrowed. A certain blond member wanted to know as well. He thought he had developed a counter for the sharingan, let's hear which one is better than the other.
"Firstly he is immune to sharingan genjutsu albeit I haven't tried the Tsukuyomi yet but still base level sharingan genjutsu doesn't work on him. Next he managed to take away the visual prowess of the sharingan. Meaning I cannot copy his jutsu and taijutsu or read his movement because once I activate my sharingan he disappears I cannot see him" Itachi finished.
"Damn Itachi no wonder the kid got a lot of hits in you. The kid is more dangerous than I thought. However the more pressing matter is that the kid seems to know our specialities. For me he avoided using jutsu knowing Samehada would render them useless and for Itachi he nullified his sharingan. It's like he is preparing to fight us" Kisame also gave one of his rear smart assessments.
Everyone else thought the same. Someone was spying on them. Right know there is no one here who has the motive to betray the organization so someone from the outside must be doing it. It's most likely the unknown master of the kyuubi that's doing this. Zetsu failed countless times to infiltrate the Uzumaki temple or even see inside. So it has to be the one training the boy, there is no one else.
"Troubling indeed. However train as he might be won't match the power of a god. On to the next agenda, what are we going to do with you two overgrown virgins" the leader said giving the two a knowing look. Shit Zetsu must have blabbered. The two looked away in embarrassment while the rest laughed except for the leader and Konan who was more emotionless than usual.
"Damn I can't believe I am saying this. Itachi, Kisame I give you one week to get laid and get rid of that weakness of yours" the leader ordered before quickly disconnecting not wanting to here the rants occurring about how it's not fair for those two to be given such an order.
With Konan.
The moment she disconnected she fell on her bed letting out the moans she was suppressing. It was a good thing that she was in her room when the meeting was called plus these cloaks are good for doing stuff without being seen. Now let's continue.
With Kisame and Itachi
As soon as they disconnected they stayed where they were for a few minutes. Kisame was the first one to give a sigh of pleasure meaning he was done.
"You done man" he asked his partner who nodded too.
"Good let's go and get laid man. I know this island were the remnants of the fish babes are living. I hope they look as good as the ones the kid made hehehe" Kisame said in excitement.
"Yah but you got a problem though. Samehada is pissed off at you. I think she is jealous" Itachi said having seen Samehada growl. Oh boy they were in for a rough ride. But it was funny seeing Kisame trying to sweet talk his way out of this one.
Next day
We find Jiraiya and Naruto on their way to a town called Tanzaku Gai. Naruto had the diamond in his hand trying to cut it in half. He had figured that it was more about making his wind blade stronger as well as sharper to cut diamond. So far he made little progress. It was a pain in the ass to cut a diamond but if it will make him stronger then he will do it.
Jiraiya was still pestering him about teaching him the rasengan and making him his apprentice. Why couldn't the old man just leave him alone. In the end he accepted the apprentice thing mainly because his brother said it will come in handy in the future. For the rasengan he also accepted mainly because he wanted the old man to shut up. It was either that or let Ranga eat him, very tempting.
He didn't reveal that he could make an even better rasengan because the old man would pester him on his to do it. So he pretended to train with the water balloon as they walked closer to the town but instead Naruto was focusing on cutting the diamond.
When they got to the town Naruto abruptly stopped when looked in a certain direction. Jiraiya wondered what the kid was looking at until he saw a castle being turned to rubble and people panicking. Jiraiya wanted to go and investigate but Naruto stopped him.
"I think your teammate is here and the other one just left" Jiraiya looked at Naruto in confusion. What was the kid talking about?
"I am saying Orochimaru was here, pissed off Tsunade then left. Tsunade is in that direction. I will tell you when we get there" Naruto said before he started heading north with Jiraiya quietly following while contemplating why Orochimaru was here. He will have to ask Tsunade when they meet. Following Naruto they came to a tavern in which Naruto entered without s second thought.
Jiraiya followed with his eyes roaming around looking for his teammate until saw her seating in a booth with her appreciate and pet. Damn the kid was good. Just imagine how many people he can locate with this ability. It could rival the Byakugan in term of locating people from a distance. Konoha must not lose such an ability. But first things first, look at those massive bazonkas.
Jiraiya quickly made a beeline for his teammate stupid pervy grin plastered on his face. Damn she looked just as beautiful as the day she left. Wonder if she will say yes this time. Man I will be in heaven when I touch those fun bags hehehe.
Naruto just sighed seeing Jiraiya acting all perverted again. Man the guy doesn't even know how to be subtle. Naruto could perv on his girls very subtly that no one would notice, except for Zabuza. The guy always knew.
Following Jiraiya he sat besides him in front of a black haired young woman holding a pig wearing jewellery? Okay that's weird. He observed the two teammates staring at each other, well more like Jiraiya staring at Tsunade's rack and Tsunade trying to identify which Jiraiya to talk to. She was pretty hammered.
Doing a quick assessment, he was disappointed. She had massive Chakra reserves which were controlled to an astonishing point. Probably She is a medic like Kabuto since her flow felt familiar to his. She also had a secondary chakra pool which was being fed by the first one. Her vitality was good but not as good as his.
Elements, well she had a mix of earth and water but they were imbalanced unlike the 1st Hokage meaning she can't use wood style. Both elements looked like they haven't been used in a long time and her fighting ability is whack. It's like she hasn't been honing her combat abilities for a long time. She looks more like a brute, someone who likes to tank through any obstacle.
What a disappointment. Sorry Jiraiya but you will have to be Hokage. What a let-down. He wondered how Gaara was doing.
D Naruto residence
"Yes mother wants your blood you will prove my existence" Gaara said in a monotone voice as he sat in the kitchen holding a fork. In front of him was a slice of carrots cake and you could almost see excitement dancing in his eyes. He took a bite taking time to appreciate the flavour.
"Yes prove my existence" Gaara went on to take another bite before he said the same thing until the cake was gone.
"Mom! uncle Gaara is doing that weird thing again!" Eric shouted to her amused parents. Well at let Gaara found something else to prove his existence. Now where was that tanuki that turned this innocent child to this. Said tanuki had already buried himself deep underground.
And done
Know most of you will most likely say that Naruto's fight with the Akatsuki was underwhelming. Yah I thought that too. But you have to understand the Akatsuki seriously underestimated him plus they where not at their best, they were using about 30% of their power. Naruto on the other hand didn't want to show them his full set of skills hence he used overpowered clones and strategy. He wasn't about to get serious against those puppets and he could have used Ranga for that.
How the fight could have ended:
After trading a few blows with the clones he was fighting and seeing that his base state sharingan didn't work, Itachi decided to kick things up a notch. He activated the second level of the sharingan and smirked when he saw that it was working. Big mistake on his part as it was clearly a trap. He decided to cast one of the sharingan's most feared genjutsu.
"Tsukuyomi" clone Naruto's world turned creepy dark and the clone found himself on a cross.
"Welcome to my world Naruto. In this world I have full control. A few seconds outside would equal 72 hours here. So for the next 72 hours you are at my mercy" Itachi said in his usually tone trying to scare Naruto. He was surprised when he saw that Naruto didn't look scared at all. In fact he was quite happy it's almost like he wanted to get captured.
"You are a dammass you know that. You think I didn't have a counter for this too. Hijack jutsu" as soon as those words were said the situation was reversed. It was Itachi who was now on the cross and Naruto was free. Itachi tried to cancel his jutsu but nothing worked. Shit he walked right into this one.
"You got me so what are you going to do now Naruto?" Itachi asked as he tried to come up with something. Naruto seemed to be more interested in the jutsu as he looked around observing it.
"Mmmmh that's an interesting jutsu you have here. I think I am going to make a variation of it. As to what I am going to do with you, I will do absolutely nothing. Them on the other hand hehehehe they have a lot of things to do to you. So for the next 72 hours you will be having fun with them" Naruto said as he pointed to Itachi's diehard fangirls.
"No Naruto you can't do this to me. Please get away from me!" Itachi scream and kicked much to the surprise of Naruto. Mmmmh who knew Itachi was this loud. Fangirls must really scare him. Well that's his problem.
With Kisame
"Wind style: great breakthrough jutsu" Naruto shouted as he fired a gust of wind straight at Kisame who smirked. He raised his sword which devoured the chakra in the jutsu effectively cancelling it. Naruto clone frowned before he resealed his bo staff and unsealed a plain white looking katana. Kisame grinned. So the kid wants a sword fight huh. Well too bad.
"Water style: shark bomb jutsu" Kisame launched his jutsu at the clone with the katana. The clone simply raised his katana and Kisame watched in shock as his jutsu was absorbed into the sword which started to glow blue. What the fuck.
"Hehehehe you like. My sword is better non creepy version of yours" the clone said. Kisame charges not seeing the smirk on the clone's face. If he had he would have known something was wrong. He would have prevented what was about to happen.
"CUT!" And just like that the great Samehada was just in half.
The end
