KG: Ugh, did someone get the number of that train that slammed me in the face?
May: Oh he's alive. Horray I'd rather not lose my brother and my fiancee.
Naruto: I'm still surprised that you lived. Still you had some good moves.
KG: Oh man. Where am I?
Yugito: Hospital.
KG: Oh hooray for me then. Why is there talking outside?
Samui: reporters. They are saying that they want to talk with you about that fight.
KG: I don't have time for such shit. I might just go back to sleep and forget this shit.
Karui: Yes well here is your gun. Enjoy it (Hands Collision to me).
KG: Damn straight!
May: I also get my cannon. I'm gonna fuck up so many KG fangirls with this that I might just destroy the female population.
KG: Oh boy, hey where is my Tv?
Naruto: At home.
KG: Oh, well alright then. I guess I'll get started then.
Taki's Training Center
The pressure was high. The mood was tense. Everyone couldn't take their eyes off Naruto, Sakura and Sasuke. The three shinobi looked at each other while Naruto chuckled. He then let out a small laugh making the two turn to him.
"What are you laughing at?" Sasuke asked while Sakura glared hard at him. Naruto held up his hand and shook his head before apologizing.
"Oh sorry, I'm just thinking about how grateful I am that I was kidnapped from Konoha. Imagine if I stayed there. I might be the dead last, still be treated like an idiot. What's funnier is that we all might have been on the same team. You two and me along with Kakashi-san as our sensei. I'm just glad that I found Kumo," Naruto said while Sakura closed her eyes. Sasuke snorted before cracking his knuckles. Sakura did the same and tightened her gloves.
"Yes, well it might have happened, but the things of the past can't be changed. I just hope you didn't get weaker in these two years," Sakura said while Naruto shook his head. Everyone could tell the three were more than tense enough to do anything before Sasuke stepped forward.
"Well you're still a dobe in my eyes. No matter the village that you run to. Now stop wasting time and let's get started," Sasuke said as he held up his hand. Naruto and Sakura noticed that Sasuke completely covered his hand in Raiton chakra. Sakura nodded her head before untying her Konoha headband. She flung it to Sai while Naruto and Sasuke raised their eyebrows.
"Sai, hold that for me. This isn't about a village fight anymore," Sakura said before she held up her fist. Naruto and Sasuke could see a white chakra engulf her fist while Naruto was sure it was sparkling. Sasuke glared and before long Naruto undid his Kumo headband as well.
"Yugito-chan, Omoi, Samui-neechan, Karui-neechan, watch that for me," Naruto said throwing it to the side. Omoi caught it in his hands while everyone else nodded. Fu gulped while her hands started to sweat. This pressure, this...excitement, where was it coming from? Why did she feel that the platform they were all standing wasn't going to hold them there?
"Nanabi, I'm...scared, but strangely I'm also excited. They all act like they've been rivals since their childhood, but they looked like they don't know a thing about each other," Fu said while Nanabi kept her concentration on the fight. Naruto slammed his hands together bringing Sakura and Sasuke to him with both their chakras still flaring. Naruto chuckled like he was too excited before reciting his words.
"Situation A, removing the second seal. Keep the Fuuton power unrestrained until both targets have been neutralized. And then some," Naruto said and both watched his Wind seal glowed. It no sooner faded and immediately the wind blowed around everyone making paper, hair, and clothes flap dangerously in it's power. It then calmed while Naruto held up his own hand coating it in that wind chakra.
Everyone watched as Naruto, Sasuke and Sakura walked up to the center of the platform and stood in the center eyeing each other. The three grinned and their eyes swayed to each other.
"Time to start," Naruto said before he quickly launched his fist at Sasuke. The Uchiha widened his eyes before jumping to avoid the strike. Sakura in turn launched her fist at Naruto only to connect with a wall of wind but due to her amount of chakra she had still sent Naruto flying but with no damage added to him.
Sasuke backflipped and skidded across the ground before charging at Sasuke. He quickly tried to kick her, but Sakura blocked it and sent another kick towards Sasuke's face. The Uchiha countered with his other leg and the two smashed into each other. Sasuke and Sakura growled at each other before they saw Naruto's shadow overhead. The blonde came crashing down between them making a burst of wind expel from his body. The two were nearly sent flying back before Naruto extended both his hands to them both.
"Fuuton: Kaze Shoumen no Jutsu( Wind Release: Piercing Wind Technique)," Naruto shouted and immediately a heavy blast of wind slammed into Sasuke and Sakura nearly knocking them both out of the platform. People widened their eyes while Sakura sucked her teeth.
"Tch, damn him," she said before backflipping and landing on the edge. Meanwhile Sasuke growled while Naruto smiled. He told for Sasuke to bring it on and the Uchiha wasn't going to let him down. He jumped into the air and grabbed his sword. He unsheathed the weapon and slammed down on Naruto's head, but the blonde grabbed the weapon and chuckled.
"Anything else?" Naruto asked while Sasuke glared. His usual stoic face lost its impassiveness before his whole body lit up in lightning.
"Chidori Nagashi( Thousand Birds Current)," Sasuke shouted and before long his body connected to Naruto and he was sure that the blonde wasn't expecting and weird thing was, he was right. Naruto didn't expect it, but being embodied with wind then you didn't have to worry about such a thing.
"Fuuton: Shinku Arashi no Jutsu( Wind Release: Crimson Tempest Technique)," Naruto shouted surprising Sasuke before his lightning was overpowered by Naruto's wind as a powerful updraft sent him into the air. The Uchiha cursed while Naruto grinned.
"Take's more than that Teme!" Naruto shouted before he was slammed across the face. The crowd of people winced before Naruto was sent crashing across the platform, his body rolling just to lessen the impact. Naruto turned around to see Sakura smiling while holding up her fist.
"Don't you dare forget me," she said and Naruto chuckled standing up.
"Wouldn't think of it," he returned before Sakura looked up to see Sasuke coming down. He quickly wrapped three kunai in wires before he flung them towards Naruto and Sakura. The two blocked them as they embedded themselves into the sides. Sasuke then did his handsigns and shouted.
"Katon: Ryūka no Jutsu," he yelled and the two shinobi on the ground watched as the fire expelled from his mouth. It traveled along the wires and before Naruto or Sakura could recognize it the wires had wrapped around them and the fire went with it encircling them both completely. People stepped back from the sheer heat while Naruto chuckled.
"This is fun," he said while Sakura looked at him incredulously. She closed her eyes and smiled.
"That it is, but I'm not dying here from this. Suiton: Suijinheki( Water Release: Water Encampment Wall)," Sakura shouted and a spring of water shot up from the platform covering her and Naruto in its safety walls. Sasuke grinned while he nodded his head.
"Just like I planned. Chidorigatana( Thousand Birds Long Sword)," Sasuke shouted as he blasted a line of Raiton chakra from his hand to the water. He watched as the water enhanced the lightning causing a bright flash around Naruto and Sakura. The two cursed before Naruto smiled. Sakura watched as Naruto folded his arms. The wind picked up rapidly around him before he closed his body and tightened it.
"Fuuton: Shinku Kyofu no Jutsu( Wind Release: Deep Crimson Gale Technique)," Naruto called out and he quickly pulled out all the wind he mustered sending it in every direction. The water and lightning both collided with the wind making it explode in a splash of spectacular crystals raining down the field. People gasped while some gulped.
"A-Are they really chunin? They should be experienced jonin by now. They are amazing," someone from an unknown village said. Haku and Chojuro were looking at Sakura's mastery over Suiton justu while Maki and Fu were in awe of Naruto's Fuuton technique. It was like watching a Mini-kage fight.
"I didn't think that he would release the seal so much. Or rather I'm surprised that they are lasting with him doing all of that. It's so amazing. That Sakura girl's really come a long way," Karui said while Samui folded her arms.
"They are going all-out against each other. It's amazing," Omoi said before Samui shook her head.
"No, they are all still not moving at the speeds they want. I'm more than sure of it. It could still go either way with how they all fight," Samui said while Sasuke dropped to the ground. Sakura glanced at Naruto who was grinning like mad.
"Where did the jutsu come from? And why don't I feel a drop in his chakra? Something like that, he should at least be huffing right now," Sakura thought. Sasuke folded his arms while Naruto did the same.
"Done with the warm up?" Naruto asked and the two nodded their heads. People looked at them in shock while Sasuke chuckled.
"Yes, you are both special. It seems Sakura's finally gotten over me. She's training and even impressed me just now. And the dobe isn't bad at all. However-," Immediately Sakura and Naruto narrowed their eyes as Sasuke's curse mark took over his body. He chuckled as his hair grew longer. He gave a cocky smirk before two black wings came from his body. People gasped at the change.
"I'm more special than both of you," Sasuke said and Sakura tightened her fist. She massaged her wrists before closing her eyes. She brushed her hair with her hand and both Naruto and Sasuke watched as her hair started to turn white. Immediately Sai paled at the act. How could she use it here? Was Sakura that eager to have a fight with Naruto and Sasuke that she'd use it?
"Sakura, we can't use that yet. What are you doing? Jiraiya-sama ordered us not to use it," Sai shouted while people glanced at him. Sasuke and Naruto narrowed their eyes while Sakura smiled.
"Don't worry Sai. I'll be fine. If it's these two then I see no need to not use it right here, right now. Kinjutsu no Fuin: Chikyū-shin no Seigen, Gaia: Kai( Forbidden Jutsu Seal: Restriction of the Earth God, Gaia: Release)," Sakura shouted as Naruto and Sasuke saw her hair wave up and down. Sakura smiled at them both while Sasuke narrowed his eyes. How strong did Sakura actually get?
"You're not the only one with secrets Sasuke," Sakura said without adding the suffix -kun to his name showing that she was serious.
"hehe...hahah. HAHAAHAH!" Naruto cackled making them turn to him. Both turned to see Naruto coating his body in red chakra.
"Oh know I'm really glad I was taken from Konoha. I might have never been able to do this if I was there dattebayo," Naruto said while Sasuke and Sakura widened their eyes. Naruto's entire body was covered in a coat while three tails came from his behind. It shifted into the form of a fox while Naruto's whiskers became more defined, his teeth and claws sharpened, his hunched his body down and landed on all-fours.
"Umm competitors I think you can stop now," the Taki manager said to them. It was amazing to see such chakra from all of them. The goal had to be achieved by now and it would be ready tonight if all plans were in accordance, but this was almost insane.
"He'd use Kyuubi here?" Karui asked widening her eyes while the three stared at each other. The instructor gulped before people noticed the platform beginning to break apart slowly just from the chakra output of the three.
"That's enough! You had your match anymore and you will be disqualified for the rest of the day. End it now!" he shouted. Immediately he realized his mistake as the three sets of eyes glanced at him dangerously acting like he dared to try and talk to the three of them. However all three of them had a mission to do and each day was crucial. They all balled their fists.
"Sasuke, we still have business here. Remember our duty to this training," Kimimaro said while Sasuke glanced at him. He looked down at his wristband only to see that his weight had increased to 16x. He had just gone up by a long shot. Sasuke narrowed his eyes as he turned back to Sakura and Naruto before Sai came up to Sakura at the edge of the platform.
"Sakura, you're overdoing it. Come on and calm down. You can finish your fight later, but right now the sparring time is over," Sai reminded her. Sasuke's green eyes focused on Sai. She glared at him for a bit before turning back to Sasuke and Naruto. And then the same happened with Naruto as Yugito and Karui showed up.
"Naruto-kun that's enough. You can stop now. You'll have another chance, but now isn't the time," Yugito said while Karui patted Naruto on the shoulder. The blonde turned to them both while Karui smiled.
"Let's go Otouto," she said and Naruto turned back to Sasuke and Sakura in response. The respective people gulped at them and wondered if the three would listen. Sakura looked down at her band and noticed that she went up to 16x and the same could be said for Naruto who went up as well. The three instantly felt the weight increase and while they didn't show it they still knew it was there. They couldn't fight like this.
"Hmph, I'll deal with you both later," Sasuke said deactivating his curse mark. The mark receded back into his skin and his wings disappeared. Sasuke sheathed his blade while Sakura performed some handsigns.
"You got lucky. Place Restriction," Sakura said as her hair stopped glowing in white and fell back down to her back in it's natural pink color. Naruto sighed and chuckled.
"Oh well. Some other time then you two," he said with Kyuubi's chakra leaving his body. His features diminished and Naruto touched his Wind seal and closed his eyes.
"Place restriction back in order," Naruto said and the winds settled around him. The three turned to their respective groups and walked off the platform in different directions. Yugito and Karui guided Naruto back to their group while Sai and Sakura walked to the back of the room. Sasuke left the tent merely because he wanted to.
"Wow Naruto. What happened?" Maki asked sitting next to him. Kurotsuchi folded her arms as did Samui while Naruto sighed.
"Got a little too into it is all. Sorry about that," Naruto said rubbing the back of his head. The others sighed and shook their heads at him.
"Anyway did you guys see the look on that instructor's face? It was like he just won the damn lottery. I think your little fight must've done something to make him that giddy," Karui said while everyone turned to him. They could see him grinning madly at the chakra stats on his paper before he rushed off.
"I see you're point. I think we might have to move tonight. And I mean get it done tonight," Yugito said telling them all. Everyone nodded their heads to her words before walking off even though Naruto could see the many stares on him and Sakura for their fight earlier.
Underground
"So Meno, they found us out huh? Kumo is snooping around?" Ibushi asked and Meno nodded while taking in the much needed air from last night. She felt so powerless that one time that it was practically death itself.
"That's right. We also have to be wary of the female with blonde hair. She...controlled my body in some way. I could feel my life was in her hands for just a moment. Like she would really kill me," Meno said while Gando and Ibushi looked up at the ceiling where they had just received a massive amount of chakra from three 'willing' individuals.
"Well it matters not. All we need now is the Nanabi jinchuuriki and then we will awake it tonight. Make sure that Tai agree and once we're done with her then we will take and deliver her to Akatsuki as promised. Remember our goal," Ibushi said while Gando and Meno nodded their heads. Once the Master Puppet was revived then they would use the next jutsu and make it live, make it real. Turn it into the beast that it was meant to be.
"So when do we get here?" Meno asked and Ibushi chuckled while rubbing his hands together.
"We already have," he said while Gando and Meno turned to each other. They didn't know what he meant by that, but the grin on his face even unnerved them slightly, but tonight they would be ready and they would be ready for the beast coming.
Lunch, Taki Center
Naruto sighed as he could see kunoichi after kunoichi blushing at him and pointing at him while some of the other shinobi looked at him with respect. It was a new thing sort of. He had never really felt that he was the center of attention while he ate his food with his group. Hell, even Yugito could see that the harpies were after her boyfriend. She just couldn't take much more and Naruto knew it. That's what happened when the room went up about ten degrees for no apparent reason.
"So when are we going to go?" Maki asked feeling a lot better as she had returned from the hospital along with Chojuro just in time to see Naruto do his match.
"Well are you guys alright?" Karui asked and Maki nodded her head along with Chojuro. They were fine for the moment so there was no real need to worry about them. Naruto was a bit more hesitant, but he relented.
"We're all going to have to go this time. Well except Sakura since she and Sai are the only one's who can hold the genjutsu that we're all still around, but I don't think it's going to stay that way," Naruto said while Yugito agreed. She had yet to actually go out, but from the information that Naruto got then this would be enough for a plan.
"Very well then we'll all move out tonight. Sai and Sakura-san will stay behind for support," Yugito instructed being the experienced member out of everyone. Sakura and Sai nodded their heads while Yugito took out a piece of paper.
"Naruto, myself, Haku-san, and Maki will go in from the front. Karui, Samui and Chojuro-san will go from the top. Omoi, Kurotsuchi, and Fu-san will go from below. Everyone have their objectives?" Yugito asked and people nodded while Yugito turned to Fu.
"Fu, we need you to-," Yugito and everyone else turned to Fu who was collapsed on the ground. Naruto widened his eyes and so did everyone else before the blonde jinchuuriki jumped to his feet. He ran over to Fu, but what happened next was unexpected as a crash came from the window. People shouted and yelled while smoke clouded the room. Naruto coughed and so did everyone else.
"Fuuton: Daitoppa( Wind Release: Great Breakthrough)," Naruto shouted and the wind picked up before blowing the smoke back out the window. People continued to cough before Naruto stood to his feet and turned around.
"Is everyone alright?" he asked and most people in his group gave him an okay before turned back around. He gasped and looked out.
"Fu-chan is gone," Naruto said while people widened their eyes. He looked out the giant hole in the window, but couldn't see anything from his view.
"Did they take her?" Omoi asked while Naruto slammed the table making it shake. He walked over to Fu's bowl and held it in his hand. He sniffed the contents and growled before turning to the kitchen staff who were sweating.
"Sleep medicine. Did you put this in Fu-chan's bowl?" Naruto asked and the people started to back away only to see Karui behind then with a bit of her body vibrating to her lightning current. She glared at them while Naruto walked up to them.
"T-They told us she was having sleeping issues so they ordered us to give her sleep medicine in her food. I-It was to help her sleep better," one of them said while Naruto narrowed his eyes. He could feel the extra heavy breath escaping their lips and narrowed his eyes. They were lying when you lie your breathe quickens and your heart races, your body heats up and your electrical pulses move faster. They were lying to him. Naruto didn't like being lied to.
"Tell us where she is or we'll be more than happy to force you," Kurotsuchi said glaring at them. Samui dropped her arms and was more than ready to start if she needed to.
"W-We don't know. Honest. We're not lying!" the other shouted while Naruto growled. This was getting them nowhere. The blonde sighed and closed his eyes. He then turned to his girlfriend and asked something of her.
"Yugi-hime can you use your ability?" Naruto asked and Yugito folded her arms.
"You mean the Netsugen no Jutsu( Heat Trace Technique)?," Yugito asked and Naruto nodded. It was a recent technique that Yugito was working on. Because she could control fire, then Yugito should've been able to find people based on their heat signature. It wasn't complete, but she could try.
"Yes please," Naruto said and Yugito nodded closing her eyes. Her body flared up and she turned to the window.
"Katon: Netsugen no Jutsu( Fire Release: Heat Trace Technique)," Yugito yelled out and immediately she could see hundreds of heat signatures. Far too many to pick out Fu specifically.
"No I don't see her. There are too many people. But if who took her is who we think then she'll be there tonight," Yugito said stopping her technique. She wasn't sure if it was her or Fu and that just proved how much more practice she would need with the technique for later.
"Alright then. Come on people. We have to go and get ready for the rest of the day, then we move," Sakura said and people filed out of the room.
"Why do they care what happens to that bitch? She's a demon and Taki is better off with her gone," one of them said while the other nodded his head.
"No kidding. I sincerely hope that she dies. Damn brat-ish girl," the one next to him said while the two corrupt cooks chuckled to themselves feeling quite happy about what they did.
With Fu
The Nanabi jinchuuriki groaned before she opened her eyes. She gasped and tried to move, but she was captured in some kind of device. Fu opened her eyes to see Ibushi, Gando, and Meno looking at her with chuckles on their faces.
"Where am I?" Fu asked and they smirked while Gando pulled a lever.
"You are in the sacrificial chamber. Prepare to be the first of you three jinchuuriki. Once your chakra is taken then the Master will be revived and the world will bow before our hands," Ibushi said and Fu immediately cried out as she felt her chakra forcefully drained.
"Arrrgh, you won't get away with...this jabroni," Fu said while Meno snickered.
"And who do you think is going to stop us?" she asked and it didn't take long before Fu's cries turned into screams as she felt the chakra starting to leave her body. She coughed while Ibushi smiled.
"Prepare for the next step," he said and the two nodded their heads to his words before the three walked off.
With Sasuke
The Uchiha was currently in his room looking at the ceiling. Where did Sakura get that power? She looked like she was more than ready to beat the crap out of him if she wanted to. Then there was the Yondaime's son, Naruto. He had that weird chakra surrounding his body. Now Sasuke did have some nasty chakra in his systems, he knew that, but still it wasn't as malicious as Naruto's and yet the blonde was still in control of it all. How much had he slacked?
"Damn idiots," Sasuke said turning around. He then watched as the dark ball fell from his pockets. It's shiny form hit the floor and rolled across the ground. Sasuke sighed and grumbled before getting up to retrieve it. He took it in his hands and grumbled again.
"Stupid thing. Why do I even need this?" Sasuke wondered to himself before he took out a soldier pill. He placed the two together and he noticed that they were the same size. The Uchiha glared at it before shrugging his shoulders.
"I'm gonna need the chakra for the rest of the day so whatever," Sasuke said as he opened his mouth. He quickly popped the black ball into his mouth and crunched it. He chewed it thoroughly in his mouth before swallowing it. He waited a few minutes, but he didn't feel his chakra increase. The Uchiha sucked his teeth before popping a regular solider pill in his mouth. Immediately his chakra was restored, but it didn't stay that way before Sasuke dropped to the ground. He gasped and clutched his chest. He coughed and hacked before passing out on the floor after having one last thought.
"W-What did I just...eat?" Sasuke thought to himself before passing out. He coughed for a little before he laid still.
Sunagakure
Izanagi and Sasori were together looking at the big wall of the Village Hidden in the Sand. Izanagi snorted at the sight before unclipping his Akatsuki cloak.
"Well Sasori, step back, don't get in my way and watch the show," Izanagi said while Sasori glanced at him. He watched as clouds darkened around them while Izanagi grinned like mad. Sasori rolled his eyes, but showed genuine surprise when Izanagi quickly vanished faster than he could see.
"This isn't going to go well. Though he'd better hurry. I don't like waiting," Sasori said to himself.
Meanwhile in his office, Gaara was busy looking out the window. He had a feeling, a very bad feeling that something was about to go down that he wouldn't like. It seemed that his suspicions were confirmed as Gaara looked out the window. He could see storm clouds beginning to gather before he narrowed his eyes. He then stood to his feet and walked off.
However, Izanagi was busy as he disposed of people from security left and right. He chuckled to himself before he quickly vanished towards the Sunagakure Mansion. He dropped to the ground easily and effortlessly while snorting.
"Too easy to get into this pathetic village," he said to himself before looking up.
"Is that what you think?" Gaara asked holding his gourd on his back. Izanagi narrowed his eyes while Gaara folded his arms.
"Hmm that was fast. How did you find me?" Izanagi asked while Gaara closed his eyes.
"There are no clouds like that in Sunagakure this time of year," Gaara said while Izanagi chuckled. He looked at the storming thunderclouds before turning back to Gaara.
"I see, well then what are you going to do about them mortal?" Izanagi asked while Gaara's sand swirled his sand around.
"I will purge them from this village," He said and it was then that the battle between Izanagi and Gaara began.
Back in Taki, nighttime
Naruto sighed finally knowing that their strategics lesson was done. He quickly raced off to his room along with everyone else. People were in their rooms already after taking their showers and baths. Naruto suited up his body and so did Yugito. Sakura and Sai were preparing for a long genjutsu session while plenty of solider pills were next to them. Kurotsuchi had met up with Maki and they were ready. Same could be said for all the others before they heard the signal.
"Lights out people!" someone shouted and people turned off their lights. Naruto and Yugito waited for ten minutes and the lights cleared. The two jinchuuriki quickly got to their feet and opened their door. Both nodded to each other and rushed off for the nearest exit.
Maki, Chojuro, Samui, Omoi, Karui, Haku and Kurotsuchi ran out of their rooms. They all exited out while Sai and Sakura did their genjutsu and spread it over the entire tent making it so that all the missing people were still there in their rooms sleeping peacefully.
With the others
Everyone met up with each other and nodded to each other. Naruto, Maki, Yugito and Haku ran off for their own destination while Samui, Karui and Chojuro took to the trees and rushed off for the tower. Omoi and Kurotsuchi went underground thanks to Omoi and the operation began.
Naruto, Maki, Yugito and Haku came up to the tower and immediately they were surrounded by dozens of puppets with their long, razor-sharp claws. Naruto snorted and stepped forward.
"We don't have the time for this," he said while Yugito nodded her heads. Haku and Maki waited no time in getting rid of the puppets in their path. They destroyed one and then the others. Haku poured her senbon into their bodies, but she wasn't getting much done before one jumped into the air. It slammed into her body, but Haku kicked it off while Maki disposed of it.
"They aren't that strong are they?" she asked and Haku shrugged her shoulder before one puppet raised its hand. It sent it down while Haku stopped it with her senbon. She then stomped the ground bringing all the water into the air. Maki widened her eyes while Haku yelled.
"Hijutsu: Sensatsu Suishō( Hidden Jutsu: Thousand Flying Water Needles of Death)," Haku said and the water turned to needles before impaling the tough armor of the puppets making it drop down. She then ran across from it while Maki took out her signature cloth when one puppet combusted and ran at her in all its flaming power.
"Nunoshibari no Jutsu( Cloth Binding Technique)," Maki shouted as her cloth extended and wrapped a handful of puppets in her grasp before she held a handsign.
"Katsu," Maki shouted and the clothe exploded killing whatever was inside of it before she withdrew it and she watched dozens of puppet parts fall to the ground.
"I'm done," Maki said while Haku nodded her head. They both turned their heads and widened their eyes to see Yugito and Naruto already done with their work. Some puppets were charcoaled while the others were only in pieces.
"Alright then, come on. We have to hurry up," Naruto said as they rushed into the building.
With Omoi and Kurotsuchi
The two shinobi were currently walking through some caverns with Omoi looking left and right with the bored expression on his face. He sighed and placed a lollipop in his mouth. Kurotsuchi watched him for a little bit before snorting and looking to her left.
"Hey, let's go this way," Kurotsuchi said while Omoi shrugged his shoulders. The two continued to walk for a little bit before Omoi placed his hand on the ground. He closed his eyes and immediately Kurotsuchi watched as his chakra ravaged the earth and began to spread through the ground. Omoi opened his eyes and stood to his feet.
"Yeah, this is the way. Let's get going," he said and Kurotsuchi nodded her head. The two began to walk to the unknown direction before a blast of fire and water flying at them. Omoi widened his eyes along with Kurotsuchi before the former slammed the ground with his fist he watched as an earth slab shot up and blocked the two shots. He then lowered it and watched as the two puppets both very large and very fat with the kanji for fire and water written on their bodies.
"You will leave this place now or you will die. Don't change the inevitable," Gando said from his puppets. Omoi narrowed his eyes while Kurotsuchi took out a kunai.
"Sorry, but allowing you fags to complete a mission that will put the Great Nations at risk isn't something that I'm gonna let happen. If you want to, then you're going to have to go through us for it," Kurotsuchi said while Gando did a handsign.
"Ninpo: Yajuu Kawa no Jutsu( Ninja Art: Beast Skin Technique)," Gando shouted and immediately Omoi and Kurotsuchi watched as the puppets began to change. They grew teeth, claws, scaly eyes and fur. The fire puppet roared and breathed fire from its mouth while the water puppet roared in turn. They dropped to all fours while Gando came from his hiding.
"I'd like to see you both talk now," he said while Omoi turned to Kurotsuchi who was sucking her teeth.
"I hate you," he said while Kurotsuchi sweatdropped and rubbed the back of her head in embarrassment of her words and her actions.
"Shut up," she said to him while Omoi shrugged his shoulders.
With Samui, Karui, and Chojuro
The two quickly came on top of the tower and looked around. They didn't see anyone before hearing someone laugh. They cackled and cackled before a puppet came into view. It was resembling a large ass wasp and soon two more came into view. They surrounded the two shinobi while Meno came out of her hiding.
"You think we'll let you stop us from doing what we came here to do?" Meno asked before eyeing Samui. Said blonde glared at Meno before she backed away slightly.
"Y-You," she said pointing to Samui while the blonde stepped forward. Meno could feel every fiber of her being telling her to get away from the blonde Kumo chunin. Samui continued to walk up to Meno before the girl waved her hand.
"Get away from me!" Meno shouted as she waved her puppets in front of Samui. The blonde woman didn't seem to care in the least about them as Meno was too surprised when Karui did away with them in the blink of an eye. Her speed wasn't something that could be matched. If Karui was going to be proud then she would say that she was even faster than the Raikage when she wanted to be so in a flash of pure light Meno's puppets were on the ground as nothing more than a memory.
"Where is Fu?" Samui asked starting at the frightened female enemy. She raised her hand poised to use her blood release if she needed to and that was all she needed.
"Bottom level of the building. She's there, but you'll be lucky if you get to her," Meno said while Samui raised an eyebrow.
"I'm taking you with me if I'm to die!" Meno said and she undid her clothes. Everyone watched in awe as she rigged explosive tags to her body.
"Fuckin' shit," Karui said before she grabbed Chojuro and Samui then left in a flash of light while Meno gasped.
"It's on you guys now," Meno said as she exploded the roof of the tower killing her instantly. The explosion was massive as it shook the entire forest.
Naruto and his group who had been in the building gasped at the shaking structure while dealing with more and more puppets. It had come from the roof, but damn was it heavy.
"What was that?" Naruto asked, but none of the girls had a reply for him before Naruto dropped through the hidden passage that he had been in the last time. He guided the others towards the place where they were going that he could remember.
"Naruto are you sure this is the right way?" Haku asked and the blonde nodded his head. He could feel the wind pressure coming from the open space of a large room.
It was then that Naruto and the others heard groaned and quickly ran through the damp water-filled place. They quickly came up to the cells where Maki and Chojuro had been and Maki knelt down.
"We have to get them out of here. Naruto, Yugito, you guys go ahead. Haku and I will take these people out of there," Maki said while Naruto nodded his head. Yugito did the same and the two quickly ran off in the direction that Naruto was leading them while Haku and Maki started picking the locks around the prison cells to hurry and get all of the trainers out of their prisons.
With Naruto and Yugito
The two jinchuuriki quickly made it towards the open area and Naruto widened his eyes. He heard coughing and noticed Fu hooked up to a weird contraption.
"Fu-chan!" Naruto called out while Fu opened a very painful eye to him. She chuckled and coughed.
"Y-You're late you i-idiot," she said while Naruto and Yugito quickly raced to her aid only for a seal to appear around them. Naruto widened his eyes along with Yugito before the blonde slammed the walls of the barrier. It was then that Ibushi came out from his hiding place and cackled.
"So you were snooping around. That's not good you know. And now you will die. Just like this jinchuuriki right here. Amazing isn't it. Normal people will have their chakra drained in about two hours, but this girl has been pushing ten hours. How amazing is that? You jinchuuriki are regular animals when it comes to this stuff," Ibushi said before Naruto noticed a puppet come behind its master. It resembled a lizard from Naruto's eye view and the blonde growled.
"Let Fu-chan go," Naruto demanded while Yugito narrowed her eyes.
"No can do. You see I have a vision. A vision where the Great Nations kneel to the Shirogane Clan and all of our greatness. Your friend was just the tool we needed. I'd say her chakra was almost done anyway. Another ten minutes or so and she'll be taken care of," Ibushi said before Naruto lowered his gaze. He sighed and bit his lip.
"People like you make me sick. You think jinchuuriki are just tools for you to use at your disposal. No way, that's it. I've made up my mind. I'll rescue Fu-chan. I'll take her from Taki. You hear that Fu! You're coming to Kumo with me and Yugito-chan!" Naruto shouted while Yugito widened her eyes. Fu gave a painful chuckle while softly nodding her head.
"I...It's...a...deal," she said and Naruto nodded taking out one of his father's kunai. He held it in his hands before grinning.
"Fu-chan, take out that money that you have in your pocket," Naruto said and Fu coughed. She struggled despite the pain and reached into her pocket. She pulled out the money that Naruto had given her and it was then that she noticed a seal over it.
"That's it!" Naruto shouted before he grabbed Yugito. The two blondes immediately Hiraishin-ed from the encampment barrier. Ibushi widened his eyes before he turned around to see Naruto and Yugito standing next to Fu who was really surprised.
"Why didn't you do that earlier?" Yugito asked while Naruto pried Fu from the machine making her collapse in his arm. She coughed while Naruto smiled.
"Because the chakra restriction walls back at the training center made it impossible that's why," Naruto said while Yugito sighed.
"H-How did you-," Ibushi wanted to know. He hadn't calculated this. He growled, and growled, and growled some more before he sent his puppet at them. The puppet crawled on all-fours before Ibushi ran off into a dark corridor. Naruto handed Fu to Yugito as the Nanabi jinchuuriki was extremely low on chakra and didn't even have much of the energy to stay conscious let alone stand up.
"Yugi-hime you get Fu-chan out of here. I'm going after that Teme. He won't get away with this," Naruto said and while Yugito wanted to retort she turned to see Fu huffing badly and merely nodded her head.
"Be careful Naruto-kun," Yugito said while Naruto nodded his head. He quickly ran off while Yugito disappeared in a lava shunshin. Little did she know that Naruto wasn't about to be alone in a few minutes. The blonde jumped to the ground and faced the lizard puppet.
"Well come on and fight me," Naruto said and the puppet charged him at a high speed. The blonde jumped out of the way before he chuckled. He didn't even have to release his seals for this. It was far too slow to actually make him care. The blonde flew into the air and hovered over the puppet.
"I don't have the time to waste on you. Fuuton: Rasenshuriken," Naruto shouted as he slammed the spiraling ball into the puppet crushing it beneath the sheer power of his jutsu. Naruto went until there was nothing left of it to come back before he heard a crash. Naruto jumped out of the way from a slab of earth that slammed into the adjacent wall. He widened his eyes only to see a passed out Gando while Omoi and Kurotsuchi came out from the opening.
"When I asked you if you had anything to stop them that wasn't what I meant!" Kurotsuchi hollered while Omoi sighed.
"Why are you so loud?" he asked while they turned to see Naruto who was looking at them both before he turned his head to see Karui, Chojuro and Samui coming into the room.
"Hey, we came from downstairs. Not a really tall place ya know. How where is that other bastard?" Karui asked while Naruto pointed towards the dark tunnel he just went through.
"That way. I'm going after him," Naruto said while the others nodded their heads. Everyone raced after Naruto. And they only thing they could say was that they would have to watch each other's back. It made Chojuro and Kurotsuchi see how easy this, but they knew better than to underestimate a shinobi.
Naruto, Samui, Karui, Omoi, Chojuro and Kurotsuchi all made it towards the center of the entire room and they immediately gasped. It was big, as in VERY big. In the center was a intricate seal on the floor with Ibushi in the center.
"Yes, almost there. Just a little more and then I will be done with it," Ibushi said before he blocked a kunai. Naruto charged at him and so did the others, but they were instantly stopped by a barrier. The blonde cursed while Ibushi cackled.
"The final seal is taken care of. He is revived!" Ibushi said and it didn't take long before the entire underground shook with pressure. Naruto and the others nearly lost their balance and fell to the ground while Ibushi cackled.
"Yes, let him come forth and let him reign as our savior! The Master Puppet!" Ibushi shouted and it didn't take long before a powerful light covered the entire room. Naruto and the others covered their eyes from the intruding force from the light.
Naruto and the others soon saw the light fade before five orbs came together and rested on five separate pedestals from each other in a circle.
"Oh shit!" Karui said before she dashed past everyone else. She quickly moved fast in front of the giant puppet that came into view before she was blasted away and into a wall. Samui went to go and assist Karui while Naruto cursed.
"And now for the final touch. Ninpo: Yajuu Kawa no Jutsu," Ibushi shouted while Naruto and the others noticed the Master Puppet covered in some type of skin. It was immediately then the next few seconds were all, but disastrous. It roared. It hollered. Its voice was like that of a damn broken piano, but Naruto could tell that it was dangerous. Everyone covered their eyes before the animal, demon, or whatever the hell it was launch fire from its mouth. Kurotsuchi, Naruto and the others widened their eyes to the large beast. Gone was the Puppet body and in its place was a large black tail, black fire, sharp beast-like teeth, steely eyes and three heads on each side. On its back where the six swords that it was caring as a puppet before this. In its jaws was a massive sword that it was holding in its hands at one point.
"Yes! Lead us Master Puppet! Take your beast form and send the world into chaos with your power! Destroy everything and everyone here! Destroy the nations, Akatsuki, homes, people, EVERYTHING!" Ibushi shouted while the Master Puppet Beast roared.
"Silence human. Your goals aren't mine," It said and Ibushi widened his eyes. Naruto and the others raised their eyes to him while the beast growled.
"I do as I want. You will not hinder me. Out of my sight," it said before Ibushi gasped.
"M-Master, but-," the beast growled before raising it's paws. It slammed Ibushi into the dirt while Naruto and the others gasped.
"He doesn't even care that he was revived by his follower," Karui said while it turned around.
"You will all die with him," It said before opening its mouth. Naruto and the others widened their eyes to see a fierce fire explode from it's lips. Kurotsuchi and Chojuro tried to move, but their legs wouldn't let them before they covered their eyes.
"Suiton: Kyodai Suijinheki( Water Release: Great Water Encampment Wall)," Samui shouted making Kurotsuchi and Chojuro open their eyes. They immediately noticed a massive wall of water come between everyone and the fire while Samui seemed unfazed.
"Whoa," Kurotsuchi said while the beast growled. He stopped his blaze while Samui dropped the water with steam covering the entire area.
"Naruto, you're up," Samui said and the blonde nodded his head before he waved his hands. The steam followed his command and Naruto sent it rushing towards the beast while Karui came from the hole in the wall.
"Sandāransu( Thunder Lance)," Karui shouted as she launched a wave of lightning into the clouds. Immediately they darkened and continued on their path towards the beast puppet. The jutsu quickly surrounded it before lightning lit up its entire body down to its core. The beast yelled out in pain before he growled. He thrashed around violently sending exploding fire from his mouth in all directions. It was then that everyone jumped out of the way while the beast growled at them.
"You can't stop the inevitable. I shall live and I shall destroy this world!" It shouted and in front of everyone. It crashed through the ceiling and went up to the surface leaving everyone else down in the caverns.
"What the hell was that? I think that's a bit over our heads!" Kurotsuchi shouted while the others collected themselves.
"I've studied that jutsu that he used. It was called Beast Skin. It grants the cast the skin of a real animal and allows them to breathe, live, talk, eat, and have blood coursing through their bodies. I would try to control it, but something like that is beyond my power," Samui said while Karui looked up.
"So what are we going to do?" she asked and Naruto sighed.
"The only thing we can do. We're all going after it and stopping it," Naruto said and just like that, he hoisted everyone into the air and blasted them off after the beast with his wind.
With the village
People were calm, it was tranquil and quiet, but then there was rumbling. The confused murmurs of people came from their voice before they heard something explode from the ground. The Master Puppet in his beast form landed and growled looking down at the insects before him.
"What. The. HELL!" someone shouted before the Master Puppet opened his mouth unleashing a massive fire across the plaines of Taki. He roared and roared away at the people screaming before war bells went off around the village. The people at the training center awoke from their sleep to see the raging fire around them before running out of the building.
"What the hell happened?" Sakura asked releasing the genjutsu while Sai shook his head. They both got to their feet and opened the door only to see a massive fire outside. The two apprentices to Jiraiya turned to each other before nodding and rushing out.
Meanwhile, Kimimaro shook Sasuke awake and the Uchiha grumbled. He looked to see that he had passed out on the floor and cursed, however that was forgotten when he heard the screaming of people in the building.
"What's going on?" Sasuke asked while Kimimaro pointed outside. Sasuke saw a massive beast raging around before he got to his feet.
"Dammit, what did that dobe do?" Sasuke wondered before he raced outside as well along with his team.
Yugito, Maki and Haku were taking care of Fu and the prisoners before seeing the giant beast. Maki gazed at the pure monstrosity in her face. It looked like a bijuu if it wasn't one. Haku could feel the vicious KI rolling off its body while Yugito stood to her feet a little worried.
"Where is Naruto-kun?" Yugito wondered before she saw the blonde and the others fly out of the massive hole in the ground. He landed near her and huffed.
"This is bad. We have to stop it now!" Omoi said before they saw the Master Puppet swipe the trees and destroy a good portion of the land. They cursed their luck before the Master Puppet turned to them specifically.
"And you fools. You will all die!" he shouted opening his mouth. Samui was preparing for another water move before Yugito stopped her. The Master Puppet released the fire from its mouth sending it at everyone. People screamed and closed their eyes before Yugito sighed. She immediately moved her hands to the side like she was pushing something and the fire was deflected from them and towards the ground.
"Nice one Yugi-hime," Naruto said with a thumbs up before they were joined by Sakura and Sai.
"Dammit Naruto, what did you do?" Sakura asked while Naruto growled. He didn't have the time to butt heads with Sakura before he noticed the beast coming for them. He ravaged the forest and destroyed the training center where they were staying before Naruto pointed to it.
"Now isn't the time Sakura. Now then would you please help!" Naruto demanded and Sakura nodded her head. She turned around to the beast while everyone noticed a slam to the ground.
"Looks like I still have to save you both," Sasuke said glaring at the massive creature in front of him. Naruto snorted while Sakura chuckled.
"Yeah right. Like we need your help," she said, but Sasuke ignored her. It was then that Naruto turned to Yugito and nodded. She knew what he wanted her to do and sighed.
"Naruto-kun, I don't think that-,"
"Please Yugi-hime, you have to do it. This is important," Naruto said and Yugito shrugged her shoulders.
"Sasuke, Sakura I have a plan however this takes the three of us. Can you all distract it?" Naruto asked while the others nodded their heads. Karui, Samui and Omoi dashed off while Maki and Haku grabbed Fu and left. Chojuro and Kurotsuchi went to assist the others while Sakura turned to Naruto.
"Sakura I'm going," Sai said and Sakura nodded. She watched as Sai released the gravity seals on his body before dashing off in a sudden burst of speed which made Naruto raise an eyebrow.
"Alright dobe, what do you need from us?" Sasuke asked and Naruto grinned like mad.
"You remember what we did this morning?" Naruto asked and the two nodded their heads.
"We're going to do that right now. I can't do it alone and I need you both," Naruto said while Sasuke and Sakura chuckled. Sasuke took out his sword while Sakura tightened her gloves.
"Just don't get in my way," Sasuke said activating his sharingan. Sakura and Naruto watched as his curse mark flooded his body. His hair grew longer and his wings sprouted. However Sasuke noticed something different. He looked at his wings and noticed the extremely dark chakra around them. He could tell they were his wings, but they were coated in an entire coat of darkness. He narrowed his eyes before shaking it off. Meanwhile Sakura undid her headband and pushed her hands together.
"Kinjutsu no Fuin: Chikyū-shin no Seigen, Gaia: Kai( Forbidden Jutsu Seal: Restriction of the Earth God, Gaia: Release)," Sakura shouted and before long her hair turned white while her body lit up in white chakra. She could feel her body growing lighter and before long she then did another separate space of handsigns. Five purplish seals appeared across her body and quickly dissipated.
"Gravity seals from Jiraiya-sensei, released," she said before the two turned to Naruto. Yugito had her palm on his shoulder with her eyes closed. Yes, he couldn't unlock this one. It had to be unlocked by her or it wouldn't work. Yugito recited some words before Sasuke and Sakura noticed the seal on Naruto's arm shift.
"You are the wind, the one who carries us all. Your power guides the world and brings about change of the nations. You are ageless, you are free, you are calm and you are right. You are the one to destroy your enemies. Release your wings, let them grow. Unleash your power and...let...it...show! Situation S, releasing the first, second and third seals! Keep the power unrestrained until the Master Puppet has been dealt with," Yugito shouted. Immediately Sasuke and Sakura watched as a fierce wind slammed the ground and came across the entire field. They covered their eyes and the people who were dealing with the Master Puppet watched as the clouds began to shift. They turned around and noticed Naruto.
"What the hell?" Sakura said while Sasuke tried to handle the wind pressure. Yugito stepped back while Naruto grabbed her waist. He quickly kissed her on the lips while Yugito returned it. It wasn't long before they parted and Naruto smiled.
"I'm going," he said as the winds settled. Yugito nodded her head while Naruto walked forward. His jacket had bursted open and flapped thanks to his winds while he walked past Sakura and Sasuke.
"Ready you two?" Naruto asked while Sasuke and Sakura stood at his side. Sakura placed a hand on her hip while Sasuke took his sword into his hand.
"What should we call ourselves?" Sakura asked while Sasuke and Naruto turned to her.
"What do you mean?" Naruto asked while Sasuke glared.
"Simple. We're all from Konoha and we're the same age. We might've been on the same team, but we're all fulfilling our goals. What do you think we should be called, team?" Sakura asked grinning towards Naruto and Sasuke. The Uchiha snorted, but he was thinking also. Naruto chuckled and folded his arms.
"Got me dattebayo," he said while Sasuke closed his eyes.
"It's simple. We're Team 7," he said while Sakura and Naruto turned to him. Both thought over the name. They didn't have any real issues, but turned to Sasuke anyway.
"Why Team 7?" Naruto asked and Sasuke smirked. He turned to Sakura and the Haruno girl nodded her head.
"While you might be a dope to me, there is still no one I would rather have wanted to have on that team than you and Sakura now that I see it," Sasuke said while Naruto nodded his head. He didn't know Sasuke could be that deep despite being an ass at times and chuckled while rubbing the back of his head. Naruto, Sasuke and Sakura stepped forward while the blonde Kumo chunin spoke.
"Is that right? Well then team 7, let's get wild,"
(Bang) (Bang) (Bang)
KG: Dammit, they are lucky I finished this chapter. Damn assholes. Now then can someone give me some cream soda?

KG: Oh come on. It's funny! Why do I have to apologize?
Naruto: What's it say?
Rachel: The latest one is this.
"Dear Prime Minister of who knows where,
I have wanted to send you this friendly little letter to inform you of your soon-to-be termination at office. If you are curious as to why I'm sending these letters so frequently, then it is merely to instill as much fear and hopelessness in you as possible. It's just that fun and I'm just that bored. It's like basting a turkey. Which I will then proceed to have sex with.
THAT'S RIGHT!
I'm going to fuck the FEAR turkey!
Follow me on twitter at the LightFuckR, sincerely,"
Rachel: Sincerely KyuubiGoku.
May: I can't help, but ponder how many chapters you'd make if you put that sort of energy into your profession.
Rachel: Well KyuubiGoku-kun?
KG: And what do I get in return?
Rachel: Well for one, the prime minister won't call you a scum-sucking, blaspheming, ignorant, protestant, fucktard of an author and he will tell you the best place to buy cream soda as well as find Luke Valentine!
KG: Oh?
Naruto: Cool.
KG: (Sigh) I'm so sorr-
(later)
Naruto: Seriously though, is KyuubiGoku going to go?
Rachel: Not as long as he's being ordered.
Naruto: I've got it!
Naruto: You know you have vacation days!
KG: I get vacation days! You mean I can leave this place, computer, and house anytime I want to and not get yelled at by May, Rachel, Integra, or Rikku on the phone? Because seriously it's always over the damn phone. Also because I don't wanna argue with them in person. I get a boner, it's super awkward.
Naruto: I didn't need to know that.
KG: Good, then I'm going traveling!
Samui: Yeah you can go anywhere you'd like. Except to where Luke Valentine and Jan Valentine are, which is in Hawaii. Rachel told me that you'd better not go!

HA: And I want to kick out Justin Beiber because he can't sing or dance worth a damn and Linkin Park is better than him in every possible way.
KG: Hey, Rikku-chan, Naruto see this. I can make him say what I want. Because this gun doesn't shoot. It HYPNOTIZES! Now then, Final Fantasy should have movies along with video games.
