Crowd 1: Let's go Cena!
Crowd 2: CENA SUCKS!
Naruto (Turning off the TV): Damn, WWE is crap these days.
Darthemius: You got that right. The Rock has left again… Lesnar's back though. Maybe something new will finally happen.
Naruto: By the way, are those fans retarded or what?
Darthemius: What do you mean?
Naruto: What I mean is… Sigh, did you see that guy, Daniel Bryan?
Darthemius: What about him? He reminds me of a goat… yeah, totally worthless.
Naruto: Exactly! So why are they chant YES along with him? Is it simply because they know what to chant? Or do they miss 'WHAT?' chants so much?
Darthemius (Sgrugging): Well yeah, I noticed this thing a long time ago. Do you remember that guy from TNA, Mr. Anderson? Every time he goes to the ring he shouts that he's from GREEN BAY VESCONSIN! And people are chanting that along with him no matter which city they are currently in. That's just dumb, why chant another city's name?
Naruto: No idea… Hey, I've got a question. Why are so many people are asking for me to fuck my damn mother in this story? That's gross…
Darthemius: And fucking your sister isn't?
Naruto: Nah, besides you are fucking that girl you consider to be your sister.
Darthemius: That's different, we're not related.
Naruto: And if you were?
Darthemius: …Well, I guess I would've fucked her anyway.
Naruto: And what about your mother.
Darthemius (Flinching): Gh, not my type…
Naruto: Exactly my point! Alright, I'll go get cola, you finish these damn notes.
Darthemius: Fine, fine… Anyway guys, I am saddened! No one guessed who Naruto's rival actually is… not that many people has tried, but still. Bah, no matter… because it's time for a…
MAJOR SPOILER: in the end of this story Naruto will fall in love with Hinata and become the Hokage!
SMACK.
Naruto (Placing Darthemius's unconscious body on the couch carefully): Don't worry, people. Darth was just joking, hehehe… At least I hope he was…
...
Chapter seventeen: Determination of a dead man.
"Shin-ne!" – talks.
'Nah.' – thoughts.
...
Open sea. An iceberg…
Naruto slowly cracked his neck left and right. "IKU-ZE!"
He and Kirabi immediately jumped at each other, clashing in a midair swordfight.
CLANG.
"Ahahahahaha! Musou!" Naruto created an ice platform under him and jumped off of it. "Senshouzan!" He did a downward slash, trying to cut Kirabi across his back.
But Hachibi jinchuuriki foresaw this and placed one of his swords directly behind his back, especially for a situation like this.
CLANG.
"Not bad for a geezer!" Naruto stated with an insane smirk as they both landed on the ground.
"Tch." Kirabi hissed. "Whatever you do, don't use any Raiton jutsu. Especially defensive ones. Bro paid for that mistake by almost losing his eye…"
"He should've listened to me and simply get out of my damn way."
Flashback. Kumogakure no sato…
"Well, I guess that's it." Naruto said, observing Yugito's downed form. "Next time let's have a simple sex, Neko-chan."
"There won't be any next time." A stern voice said from behind.
"Oh-ho!" The blond turned around slowly, placing his sword on his shoulder. "You certainly don't lack the confidence, calling me out instead of hitting me in the back, ne Ay-san?"
The Raikage glared at him. "Was it you who defeated my soldiers?"
Jin paused. "Umm… no?"
"I thought so." Ay said, activating his lightning armor.
Naruto sighed and rolled his eyes. "Look pal; let me put it for you this way. Do you consider me to be nothing but an insect, compared to you?"
"Exactly." Dark skinned man stated.
"And there you have it!" The blond exclaimed. "I'm weak, I'm useless, I'm insignificant. So maybe I'll just promise not to do this again, and you'll consider simply letting me go?" He asked hopefully.
The Raikage smirked at this. "Promise, huh? Do you think I'm stupid? You should never trust an enemy, even perspective one."
"Hmhmhm…" Naruto chuckled. "Hmhmhmhmhahahaha! Bravo, my hat is off to you!" He clapped. "…Well, if I ever have a hat, it will be off to you… Anyway, I'm happy to see that at least one of the Kages is not a peace-loving imbecile."
Ay's smirk widened. "Oh? A high praise from a Kage-killer."
Naruto's eyebrows furrowed at this. "How do you know that?"
"My information network is far better than the one that Jiraiya has." Dark skinned man stated.
"How so?" The blond asked.
"Because the main figure of this network is not a dumb peeping tom who can't even get laid for free."
Naruto nodded. "Indeed, that is a good reason… But a question, if you may. Why didn't you release the information about me into the bingo book?"
"Simple, I had no reason to do that." Ay stated. "You haven't crossed Kumogakure's path until this very day. The biggest mistake of your life."
Jin rolled his eyes once again. "Damn, I wanted to avoid fighting you…"
The Raikage grinned evilly. "Of course, even I would've wanted to avoid fighting me."
"Not that, you moron." Naruto said sternly, making Ay's smile fade. "I don't need another Kage corpse on my hands."
Their eyes met once again and Ay's mouth opened in surprise.
'Sharingan?'
"IKU-ZE!" In a blink of an eye Naruto was in front of the large Kage and lashed out with his sword.
"Tch." The Raikage hissed, blocking it with his arm guards. "Naïve! My armor is…"
CRACK.
"What?" Ay's eyebrows almost disappeared in his hairline when a crack line appeared on one of his arm guards. "Impossible!"
"Is it?" Naruto asked with a smirk, returning his sword into its scabbard. "You know, you're not as smart as I actually thought. One of your jinchuriki lies defeated. Several of your best jounin are defeated as well. How do you think I did that, with luck?"
Ay's eyes narrowed. "Your sword…"
"DING, DING, DING, DING, DING! Good answer, pal!" Naruto mocked. "One of the legendary blades, Yukianesa. It can cut through almost anything, and your chakra armor is not an exception."
Dark skinned man gritted his teeth. "Well, then I'll just have to evade being hit!" He exclaimed, empowering his lightning armor.
Jin smiled in amusement. 'Way too predictable. That was almost too easy… Now what is hard!' He thought, evading a punch to the head. 'One blow and I'm dead. I have to wait for the right moment. I'll only have once chance at this…'
"Girochin Doroppu!"
"Woah!" Naruto yelled in surprise as he jumped to the side, barely avoiding Raikage's heel drop.
CRASH.
"Holy shit!" He exclaimed, watching how much devastation a single heel drop has caused. "This guy is not pulling any punches!"
"No time to look around, boy!" Ay started to move so fast around him, that Jin almost got a head spinning.
'Okay, let's take offensive…' The blond watched his opponent blur several more times and then…
"Hirensou!" He draw his sword insanely quick… but still hit nothing but air.
Instead Ay appeared right in front of him, grabbing his waist.
"A shame, you had potential." Dark skinned man exclaimed, preparing to deliver one of his most devastating attacks.
"I still have." Naruto said slyly.
"Haha! What can you possibly do at this distance?"
Naruto grinned and grabbed Raikage's hand. "Suiton: Suijinheki!"
Ay only had the time to widen his eyes before they both were engulfed in water.
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHH!" Dark skinned man screamed as his greatest weapon was turned against him.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk…" Naruto slowly walked to a kneeling Raikage and leaned on his shoulder with his elbow. "That had to hurt, especially with the amount of chakra you poured into this thing. Anyway, I guess that's my due to leave. See you around…" He pushed himself off his opponent and started to walk towards Kumo's entrance… only to find Ay in his way ten seconds after.
"DON'T UNDERESTIMATE ME!" He shouted, lashing out with another punch.
But after such a shock his moving speed was severely reduced… which allowed Naruto to quickly duck under his punch and…
"Rehhyou!"
…And execute a peerless upward slash.
"GAH!" Ay clutched the left side of his face in pain.
"A good warrior knows when to give up…" Naruto stated, sending the Raikage through a building wall with a kick to the chest. "…And he also knows when to run away. JA NE!" With that he quickly created an ice platform and flew away as quickly as he could.
BLAST.
The building exploded, revealing a livid looking Raikage.
"Jin Kisaragi…" A smile suddenly appeared on his face. "How fascinating. Perhaps there are good challengers beside that yellow motherfucker after all…"
End flashback…
"Meh." Narutoshook his head. "Let's continue!"
He ran at Kirabi once again.
CLANG.
"Sekkajin!" Naruto exclaimed, swinging his blade around himself with insane speed. "HAAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHA!" He laughed, starting to actually push Kirabi back.
'Tch, this kid is amazing!' The Hachibi host thought. 'Even with my unpredictable sword style he is able to push me back. Looks like bro was right about him after all…'
"What's the matter! You stopped looking so tough anymore!" Naruto yelled. Fubuki!"
"Etto!" Kirabi back flipped in order to escape the deadly slash, but to his shock Naruto was already at the point where he was about to land. 'He's fast!'
"Rehhyou!" Jin made an incredibly fast upward slash, which Kirabi managed to block with one of his swords, but…
"Hirensou!"
As a result of this attack, Kirabi's blade was knocked out of his hand, and both of his arms were partially frozen.
'Gh! Damn him and his ice attacks!' Raikage's brother thought, gritting his teeth.
"Musou!" Naruto created another ice platform and flew straight at his opponent.
"Naïve!" Kirabi stated, jumping over Jin… only for his eyes to widen. "Shit!" He got it, Naruto wasn't aiming for him. "Karui! Look out!"
"Ha!" Naruto flew straight at the dark skinned kunoichi, but she was ready to face him with her sword in her hands.
"Come on, you bastard!" She shouted and swung her blade, shattering the ice platform completely. However…
"Senshouzan!" Naruto jumped over Karui's head and was about to cut it off when…
CLANG.
…His slash was suddenly blocked by Darui's sword.
"Darui, thank you." Karui sighed in relief.
"A little early for that, bitch!" Naruto pushed Darui off of him and kicked Karui in the back. "This is the last time you saved her life! Hiren…"
"Katon: Inferuno Kaenhoushaki!" (Inferno Flame Thrower)
"Grr!" Jin scowled, jumping to the side in order to escape a massive amount of bluish fire thrown his way. "Finally came out to play, eh Neko-chan?"
Yugito only glared at him, getting on all fours and preparing to unleash the full power of her bijuu on her enemy.
"Kisaragi!"
Naruto glanced over his shoulder to see Karui charging at him.
"Tch, Hishouken."
And once again Karui froze from fear… and once again she was saved. By Kirabi this time.
"Nice job with nailing me by that ice, mothafucka." Eight-tailed jinchuuriki stated.
Jin sighed, rolling his eyes. "Well I'll be damned… I mean, why did you take this girl with you? I almost killed her four times already! Can she do anything special at all?"
Silence.
"She can't? That's a damn waste. Just tell her to stay away from this, alright? She will only get in the way of our fight."
'Fucking Sharingan! Even though bro has warned me about it, I never expected this guy to be so good at using it.' Kirabi's eyebrows furrowed. "Everyone, listen up. He's better than I anticipated. Darui, you're with me. We're taking him head on. Yugito, you cover us with long area ninjutsu. Samui and Karui, you stay back and attack only on my command. Got it?"
"Hai, Kirabi-sensei!"
"Alright, let's check it out!"
Kirabi and Darui charged at Naruto instantly, attacking from both sides.
CLANG.
"Gh!" The avenger grunted. 'If they'll keep at it, I won't be able to hold on even with my Sharingan!' He thought… just as he received a deep cut to the back.
Sirprisingly it was from Darui.
"Guah!" Naruto gasped in pain, falling to his knees.
"Nice one, Darui!" Samui commented.
"The final sting!" Kirabi brought one of his swords down and it hit Naruto head on…
CRACK.
…Only for his body to crumble into ice.
"Touga Hyoujin!"
"Disperse!" Kirabi shouted as he and Darui jumped to different sides, narrowly escaping a massive wave of ice.
"Dah." Naruto gasped again, falling on one knee. Yes, he managed to escape the last strike, but the one Darui inflicted was real. "You won't get away!" Sharingan wielder prepared to send another Touga Hyoujin at Darui while he was still in midair, but…
"Katon: Mugen Kasen!" (Infinite Fire Arrow)
Another jutsu from Yugito made him back flip several times. This time it came in form of a huge amount of blue fire arrows shot from her mouth.
"Damn it all!" Naruto grunted, creating one more ice platform and thus outflying all the arrows. "You're a damn annoyance!" He flew straight at Yugito.
"Musou Tosshougeki!" He exclaimed, not bringing his sword down this time, but thrusting it forward.
Yugito's eyes widened. Jin was way too fast for her even in her tailed state, so she could only watch in shock how he approached her… how he unleashed his sword, and…
CLANG.
…How it got blocked once again by Darui's sword.
"Grah! I've had enough of you!" Naruto screamed in rage, closing his eyes and opening them again sharply. "Mangekyo Sharingan!"
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH!" Darui screamed in pain, falling face first on the ice.
"Darui!" Kirabi rushed to his subordinate, throwing one of his swords at Naruto on his way. "Darui!" He tried to bring the dark skinned jounin back into consciousness, but it was to no avail.
"It's useless, Hachibi-chan." Naruto stated.
"What have you done to him, Kisaragi?" Raikage's brother growled, holding Darui's unconscious body in his arms.
"Oh that?" Jin chuckled. "I simply removed him from the picture."
"Removed him, eh…?" Red chakra started to bubble around the man in sunglasses.
"K-Kirabi-sensei…" Yugito stuttered.
"Take Darui and go. This area won't be safe for much longer."
"H-Hai!" Yugito quickly grabbed her team member and jumped away.
"Boy, oh boy!" Naruto exclaimed happily. "Finally some real action! But I guess I won't be able to face you in that form without a little power up!" He brought his sword in front of himself. "Dai roku-roku-roku kousoku kikan kaihou. Jigen kanshou kyosuu houjin tenkai. Code: S.O.L. BreiBru! KIDOU!"
"I don't know what you just did…" Kirabi spoke, standing up from his knees in his six-tailed form. "But this will not help you!" With that he rushed straight at his enemy, preparing to punch his lights out. 'No one except my brother can dodge my attack in this form!'
And indeed, Naruto didn't dodge… he simply caught Kirabi's fist.
"Im… Impossible!" Dark skinned jinchuuriki exclaimed. "No one can…"
"Rehhyou!"
SLASH.
Kirabi's eyes widened when he received a deep cut across his chest.
'N-No way… He even cut through my chakra cloak! Who is this kid?'
"Hey, snap out of it!" Hachibi's voice echoed in his head. "Or this 'amazing' kid will cut your damn head off! Use your swords!"
'Right!' Kirabi drew his blades once more and faced Naruto again.
'Tch.' Naruto scowled. A kenjutsu fight against Kirabi was tough… but a kenjutsu fight against Kirabi in his jinchuuriki form was insane! 'Fuck! Even with my Sharingan and BlazBlue I won't be able to…' His train of thoughts stopped when he received a nasty cut on his stomach. "Ah!"
CLANG. CLANG.
"Ah! Damn!" And yet another cut broke through his defense. Again and again, Kirabi was quickly gaining the advantage. Few minutes later Naruto's body was covered in cuts, deep and shallow. His clothes were now thorn and bloody.
"Fucking asshole!" Naruto screamed, falling on one knee.
"You fought well, I'll give you that." Kirabi stated. "But this is the end. I'm going to finish my mission." He added, running at Naruto again.
The blond gritted his teeth in anger, watching his enemy's approach. 'Fuck! I can't die now! What else do I have? Think! Wait, his style is based solely on offense! How about…' He stood up shakily.
"Oh? Decided to take death like a warrior? Admirble, but…" Kirabi brought down his blade and…
"Kokuujin…"
Kirabi's sword hit some strange energy shield and Naruto disappeared.
"Where did that mothafucka go?"
"Yukikaze!" Naruto shouted right behind Hachibi jinchuuriki's back.
CLICK.
"GUAH!" Kirabi gasped in pain, falling face first on the ice, as a fountain of blood erupted from his chest. "H-Hachibi…"
"Damn! Must I do everything for you?"
Suddenly Kirabi's body started to change again.
"Son of a bitch…" Naruto muttered quietly, now looking at one huge octopus – the Hachibi's true form.
"Jin Kisaragi!" It screamed.
"Uh-oh…"
"This is your end!"
A black sphere appeared in front of Hachibi's mouth and Naruto's eyes widened.
'Oh, fuck me in the ass! If he nails me with this shit, I will be fucking obliterated! No choice…' Jin thought, releasing a seal on his hand.
"Die!"
BLAST.
Enormous beam of energy escaped Hachibi's mouth, going straight at Jin, enveloping him completely. A few moments later they both were gone, the beam… as well as Jin.
"He was good, very good… A shame he had to die so young…"
"Ho! That's a high praise, coming from a demon!"
Hachibi looked up sharply. "What? Impossible! You should be…"
But he was not allowed to finish because Naruto jumped down from his floating platform and dove straight at Hachibi… placing one paper seal right on its forehead.
"GRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH!" The demon roared, twitching in pain and destroying the remains of the iceberg.
"Oppa!" Naruto exclaimed, landing gracefully on top of water's surface… pocketing his three-pronged kunai. "Thanks, dad."
The next second Kirabi's body landed as well. Not so gracefully though, he fell head first into the water.
"Huff… Huff…" Naruto stood up slowly. "Well, that sure as hell was one of the toughest fights in my life…" He stated, walking towards his downed opponent.
"Stop!"
Suddenly the remaining members of Kumo team landed between him and their sensei.
"Oh, there you are." Naruto said with a smirk. "And I was just about to go look for you…"
"Stand down, Kisaragi." Samui said, holding her blade with shaking hands. "We surrender, you have won. Now leave, please."
"Ho?" Jin raised an eyebrow. "And why should I do that? You were really determined to kill me several minutes ago. Why should I spare you?"
Yugito bared her fangs at him. "You must be tired now, right Kisaragi? Do you think you can take on another jinchuuriki and two other shinobi in that state?"
"Hmhmhmhmhm…" Naruto chuckled and started to walk forward.
"Halt!" Karui shouted. "We know we're probably no match for you… But we will fight if…"
She wasn't allowed to finish when Naruto suddenly blurred out of view and appeared right between the three of them.
"Idiots." Jin stated, simply kicking three girls away from him.
"Gh…" Yugito grunted, getting up once again. "You will not land a finger on…!"
"Oh, shut up." Naruto interrupted, dismissing his sword.
"Huh?" Yugito exclaimed in confusion. "What are you doing?"
"Heh, isn't it obvious?" Jin asked back. "I'm ending our fight. Now let me look at those two…"
"If you touch them…" Samui began, but Naruto raised his hand.
"I'm not going to kill them." He stated. "If I was, I'd simply killed the three of you first. And believe me; I can do that even now."
"But why?"
Naruto snorted. "Simple, I wasn't paid for this."
Surprisingly, Yugito was the first one to release her stance.
"Fine, what do you need to look at them for?" She asked.
"Well, first of all…" Jin walked towards Kirabi and ripped the seal from his forehead. "These aren't very easy to make, you know. Don't worry; he'll be up in a few hours. Send him my regards by the way; it was one the best fights in my life."
"Alright." Yugito nodded her head. "And Darui?"
Naruto approached the unconscious Kumo jounin and touched his forehead with two fingers.
"There. I hit him with a very strong genjutsu. And if I wouldn't have do what I just did, he would've remained there… forever."
"I… I see…" Yugito said in slight shock. "So… what now?"
"What, you wish to fight again?" Jin asked.
"No!" Three girls shouted simultaneously.
"Good, then take them and go… Oh, and tell Raikage-chan that patience is a good trait. He could lose his brother and one of his best men today. And tell that I will consider his offer, but not today. My priority right now is… elsewhere."
"Alright, we will." Samui stated.
"Well, then I'm off." Naruto said, creating another ice platform and jumping on top of it. "Oh, and Yugito…"
"Yes?" The girl responded, not believing that he just called her by her name, instead of his usual 'Neko-chan'.
"Do pop that cherry before we meet again, alright? I'm not into virgins, you know…" He looked at her over his shoulder with a wink and flew away.
"Son of a…"
With Konoha team…
"No! We must go back for him!" Tsubaki yelled.
"For the ninety fifth time, Tsubaki." Kakashi replied. "No, we will not. He chose himself to fight against two demon hosts. And if my calculations are true, then Kisaragi is already dead."
"No, he can't be dead!" Red haired girl screamed with tears in her eyes. "He can't die!"
"Nonsense, everyone can…" Kakashi hated himself for what he was just doing. Actually he could just ignore Jin's suggestion and stay… But he knew that Minato-sensei was trying to get rid of Jin for quite some time, so… it was a perfect opportunity. Besides, he even volunteered. Now Kakashi's hands were clean.
"Tsubaki…" Sasuke placed his hand on her shoulder.
"He promised!" She sobbed. "He promised he won't leave me…! How could he?"
Sasuke's eyes lit up. 'Now's my chance to show who really cares about her.' He thought. "Look, Tsubaki, he might be gone now, but I… I will stay…"
"Hey, did you feel that?" Anko suddenly said, interrupting Sasuke's confession.
"Feel what?" Koyuki asked.
"Something's approaching… And it's approaching really fast." Kakashi stated. "Guard on!"
"Hai!" All genins and two jounins took their battle stances… only for all of them… well, except for Sasuke and Kakashi, to gasp in shock when bloody and battered Jin Kisaragi landed face first on ship's deck.
"Ouch… not my most subtle landing…" He muttered, struggling to push himself up. 'Damn, I should get an Oscar for this…'
"JIN!" Tsubaki shouted, instantly rushing to his side.
"Well I'll be damned!" Anko stated proudly. "You really managed to pull that through, kid! How did you survive?"
"Yes, I would like to know that as well." Kakashi added with narrowed eyes.
They both were ignored though…
"T-Tsubaki… Oh, my ribs!"
"Hold on, Jin! I'll take care of you!" Tsubaki quickly got under his shoulder and lead him down the stairs.
"Wait. First I'd like to know…" Kakashi spoke again, but was interrupted by a glare from Hokage's daughter.
"You can ask that later. Now he needs medical care." She said and they both disappeared from everyone's view.
Naruto's room…
"Yeow! Damn… careful please…"
"Oh, sorry." Tsubaki muttered, laying Jin on his bed. "Now let's get rid of those clothes…"
"My, you one perverted girl!" Naruto exclaimed with a smile on his face. "I almost died just now, and that's what you're making me do?"
"Stop that." The girl said. "You know very well what I meant by that. Your clothes look like you've been working in a slaughterhouse for several years!"
Naruto looked down at himself. "Shit, you're right. Okay, let's get rid of these…"
With their combined efforts they managed to remove Naruto's clothes, and now Tsubaki was treating his wounds.
"Yeow! That hurt!" He yelped.
"Oh, suck it up! Are you a man, or what?"
"Of course I am…!"
"Well, men don't yelp!" She stated, treating another cut.
"Ouch!" Naruto yelped again. "Well thanks a lot! My ego just took a grave hit and I think it's on the verge of death…"
Suddenly Tsubaki stopped.
"Oh, come on. I'll be quiet now, okay?"
Still nothing.
Naruto turned around. "What's the ma…?" Words died in his throat when he saw her face. "What happened? Why are you crying?"
"You… How could you, Jin?" She yelled between her sobs. "You promised you would never leave me, and yet, you stayed to fight those Kumo ninjas, knowing that it was a suicide! I would've stayed too, but Kakashi… he knocked me out and…"
"It's good that he did." Naruto interrupted.
"What? How can you say that?"
"It was good because that fight was really nasty, and at one point I even thought that it's going to be my last. And if I would've died alone, then that would be fine. I have nothing and I'm a nobody. No one will cry if I'm gone and…"
"You're wrong!" Tsubaki screamed at him. "You're not a nobody and… you have me. And if you would've died, I… I don't know what I…"
"Tsubaki?" Naruto asked cautiously.
"I… I was afraid that I would not have the chance to say that I…" The girl hesitated. "Jin, I… I love you…"
Naruto's eyes widened. 'Holy fucking shit! Now you've really done it, Uzumaki!' He cursed at himself.
"Jin…? I… I must know. If you don't feel the same…"
'Fuck it all! Damn, I guess there is no helping it…' He cursed again and forced a beaming smile on his face. "I guess I do. After all, I promised to never leave you, right? Might as well get comfortable…"
"JIN!" Tsubaki hugged him tightly… totally forgetting that…
"Guh! Tsubaki, my ribs!"
"Oh, sorry…" The red head replied, releasing her grip. "I'm just so happy that I have finally said it…"
"Yeah, I'm glad you said it too…" Naruto almost bit his tongue, saying that sentence. 'You're a fucking bastard, Uzumaki Naruto. You're so bad that you yourself are disgusted with you. But I don't really care about that! When nii-san is dead, I will gladly let her pierce my fucking heart!'
However, what both of them missed, was the presence of one Uchiha Sasuke. He stood outside of their door the entire time and listened to every word. But after Tsubaki's confession…
"Grrrr!" He growled in anger, punching the opposite wall as hard as he could. 'So that's what you have decided then? Alright! I guess I have nothing that holds me in that village after all. I'm coming after your head, Uzumaki Naruto!'
Timeskip. Snow country…
"Damn, I forgot how cold it is over here…" Naruto muttered, walking beside Kakashi.
Yes, walking. Their sea cruise was finally over and now they were traveling via caravan.
"So, Kisaragi…" Kakashi began. "Are you finally going to tell me how you survived that fight?"
"With Kumo you mean?" Naruto asked back and Kakashi nodded. "Oh, well I simply lured them all out of the iceberg's surface and while they all stood on top of the water I used one of my special techniques to freeze them for a short amount of time. And while they couldn't move their legs, I created an ice platform and flew away as fast as I could. Simple brain work."
"You make it sound simple." Kakashi commented.
"Well it was not. Because, have you seen my state when I returned?"
Kakashi nodded his head. 'Well, that's true. He really looked like he went through the fleshing machine…' He concluded. "Alright, Kisaragi, I believe you. But it doesn't mean I trust you."
"You don't have to." Jin stated. "I don't believe we will hang out in the future. This is a single mission. And when your team will become chuunins, I think they won't need any backup at all."
"Yes, I guess you're right… What the…?"
"Why are we stopping?" Jin asked.
"That's what I'd like to know." Masked jounin said, walking to the caravan's head. "What's going on?"
"There is a tunnel up ahead. We must make sure that it won't collapse." The man replied. "Someone should check it out."
"Very well. Kisaragi, you're up!"
"Why is it always Kisaragi?" Naruto muttered, walking into the tunnel.
"Wait!" Tsubaki shouted. "I'll go with you!"
"No, you will not!" Kakashi commanded.
"But… two are better than one, right?" The red head asked.
"True… Sakura! You go with Kisaragi!"
"Tch." Tsubaki scowled.
"Hai, Kakashi-sensei!"
Inside the tunnel…
"Umm… what are we looking for, Jin-kun?" Pink haired kunoichi asked.
Naruto rolled his eyes. "The aliens. They like to make their bases in places like this, you know…"
"What, really?"
"Yes, really."
"Umm…" Sakura bit her lover lip. "Forgive me, but I just wanted to say that it was very brave of you to stay back then."
"Thanks. Any normal man would've done the same."
"But Kakashi-sensei didn't…"
"Well, then here is your answer! Kakashi-sensei is not a normal man. He's a useless pervert, who reads porn instead of getting laid."
Sakura blushed madly at his sentence and looked down…
"Jin-kun?" She said, stopping in her tracks.
"Yes, what is it?"
"I believe we've got problems…"
"Who, me and you?"
"No, I believe everyone else too. Look down."
Naruto looked down and raised an eyebrow. "What the fuck is that?"
"It's a… railroad." Sakura stated, crouching to look closer. "There is a chakra flowing inside of these rails. It's melting the ice."
"Strange, why would someone do that?"
"Maybe there is a train coming this way…"
"What's a train? Wait… did you hear that?"
Sakura's eyes widened. "Yes, I did! And that is a train for sure! Run for it!" She quickly turned around and started to run in the opposite direction.
Naruto remained still for some moments… until he actually saw the train.
"Ho-Ho-Holy shit!" He exclaimed, darting after Sakura. "Damn, we won't make it this way! Musou!" He created an ice platform and jumped on it. "Sakura! Grab my hand!"
The kunoichi glanced over her shoulder, noticing Jin flying at her at insane speed. She then raised her right hand up in the air…
"Got ya!" Naruto stated, grabbing Sakura's hand and pulling her up.
"Kyah!"
"Hold on!" Naruto shouted. "We're almost out!"
"We won't make it!" Sakura screamed, holding onto him for dear life.
"Yes, we will!" Jin replied. "Haaaaaaaa! Hyah!" They flew out of the tunnel and Jin immediately grabbed Sakura and jumped to the right.
The next second the train crushed his ice platform.
"Hahahahaha…" Naruto laughed, lying on the snow. "Need more adrenalin, Sakura?"
"No way…" The kunoichi replied, getting on her knees. "I've had enough for the rest of the mission."
"Oh?" Sudden voice spoke. "Well, well, well. Jin Kisaragi, Rattlesnake himself!"
Naruto turned his head to see a man, looking at him from the train. "Dotou… I could say that I'm happy to see you, but that would've been the biggest lie in my entire life. And that's saying something!"
"Oh, bravo!" Dotou clapped. "Another one of your fucking sarcastic remarks. I kind of liked them, you know. And even to this day I keep asking myself why… Why did you turn on me? Why did you betray me? Was my payment bad? Or did you simply fell for my little niece? Or maybe both?"
"Hmhmhmhmhm…" Naruto chuckled. "Neither actually."
"Then what?"
"You see…" Jin began. "It's all way too simple; I simply do as my left testicle tells me to do. That's my only motivation for everything."
Dotou's eyes narrowed. "I see. Well, that means that…"
Suddenly…
"Kazahana Dotou!"
"Hmm?" Snow country Daimyo turned his head. "Oh? Now that is a rare sight…"
Up on the hill stood a group of samurais. And Sandayu was among them…
"Kazahana Dotou! Your judgement day has arrived! The death of Sosetsu-sama will finally be avenged!" The old man shouted.
Dotou rolled his eyes and turned back to Naruto. "Do you mind?"
The blond waved his hand. "Not at all. He was pissing me off anyway…"
"Hime-sama is watching us! We have no right to fail!" Sandayu continued. "CHARGE!"
"HOAH!" Other warriors shouted and rushed at Dotou's train.
Sakura wanted to run back to the rest of the team, but…
"Sakura." Naruto suddenly called.
"Yes, Jin-kun?"
"Don't move."
"W-What? But…"
"Do you want to live?"
"Y-Yes…"
"Then don't move." Naruto said, watching the space between the train and charging soldiers. 'I have a good idea of what's going to happen.'
"Waste them." Dotou stated and suddenly an extreme amount of kunais flew from the train right at the attackers.
Sakura's eyes widened in horror as she watched how proud men were turned into human pincushions in a matter of seconds.
"See what I mean now?" Naruto asked, glancing at her with a smirk.
"Jin-kun… That's horrible!"
Jin raised an eyebrow. 'That's horrible? Ah, of course… She wasn't living with Orochimaru…' He thought walking towards Sandayu's dying body. "So, happy now, old man? You have finally died a samurai's death! Rejoice!"
Sandayu looked at Naruto. "K-Koyuki-h-hime…"
Naruto snorted. "Sorry to disappoint, but it's just me, Jin Kisaragi. Say hello to your Sosetsu-sama for me. Hishouken!"
"Gah!" The old man gasped when Naruto's ice blade pierced his stomach… And that was actually the last thing he did before closing his eyes forever.
"Why did you do that?" Sakura shouted, running over to him.
Jin shrugged. "Why not? He was already dead anyway, besides, I wanted to do it since our mission started…"
"Hahaha!" Dotou laughed and clapped his hands. "I just can't stop admiring your ways, Rattlesnake. You will laugh in the face of your own death!"
Naruto turned to him and smiled beamingly. "Of course I will! Actually, I did it several times already. Looks like my smile is something to be feared of, because I survived every time for an unknown reason…"
Suddenly…
"Jin!" Tsubaki landed beside him with a relieved look on her face, followed by the rest of their group. "Thank god you're okay!"
"Dotou…" Kakashi spoke as his only visible eye narrowed.
"My, if it isn't Hatake Kakashi!" Snow Daimyo exclaimed.
"No, he isn't. It's just an impostor." Naruto replied.
"Haha! I always liked your jokes, Rattlesnake! So you know what, I'm going to offer you one more chance. Surrender Koyuki and I will let you leave."
"Well…" Jin did a thinking pose. "Let me think for… two seconds. Nope."
Dotou sighed. "A shame." He said and snapped his fingers.
Immediately three ninjas appeared.
"Long time no see, Kakashi." One of them stated.
Masked jounin glared. "Rouga… Nadare."
"These guys?" Naruto asked in disbelief. "Pu-lease!" He summoned Yukianesa in his left hand.
"Hahahahahaha!" Anko laughed, moving to his side. "Meat! We're having a barbeque tonight!"
"I'm with you, Jin!" Tsubaki stated, doing the same.
"Hn." Despite his hatred, Sasuke stepped in line as well.
But then…
"Oh, it looks like there has been a little misunderstanding." Dotou spoke again. "You see, Rattlesnake, they are not your opponents. Oh no, since I got the report of Jin Kisaragi departing to Snow Country I knew I will have to hire additional backup. And to my surprise my call was responded way faster then I anticipated so…" He grinned evilly. "Say hello to an old friend."
Naruto tilted his head to the side. "What are you talking abo…"
"Hello, Jin." A deep male voice spoke.
'I'll know this voice anywhere!' The blond thought with wide eyes. "Holy fucking shit! What the fuck is wrong with this mission? First Kumo guys, now you! Don't you have anything better to do, Kakuzu?"
"Hmhmhm…" A single man, dressed in a cloak with red clouds appeared in a puff of smoke. "I'm happy to see you too."
"Ho! Another barbeque coming up!" Anko exclaimed, licking her lips.
"No." Naruto said through gritted teeth. "He's not like them, he's strong."
"Such a praise coming from you…" Kakuzu said. "My, I'm flattered."
"Kakuzu…" Kakashi muttered. "I swear I heard the name before, but I can't remember where."
"Hatake Kakashi. That hurts, you know." Kakuzu exclaimed. "If you ever heard of Jin Kisaragi, you should also know the name of his greatest rival."
Several people's eyes widened at this. Sasuke was among them.
'This guy is Kisaragi's rival?' He thought, observing the newcomer with his Sharingan. 'His chakra is intense… and strong, very strong. How can Kisaragi even stand up to him?'
"I see the cloak, Kakuzu." Naruto growled. "Does that mean you're with them now?"
"It does." Kakuzu nodded. "In fact I must actually thank you. If you wouldn't kill Yagura back then, I would've done it. And then Akatsuki would've been after me instead of you."
Kakashi's eyebrows furrowed. "Yagura… Wait a second! Yagura? As in Yondaime Mizukage Yagura?"
Kakuzu raised an eyebrow. "You didn't know? My, how humble of you, Jin."
"What is he talking about, Jin-kun?" Tsubaki asked.
"I'm talking about the person who is standing to your left, little girl." Kakuzu responded. "The hero of Kirigakure! The slayer of the tyrant! Yondaime Mizukage's killer Jin Kisaragi!"
Everyone except Kakashi gasped in shock at this.
Anko turned to him slowly. "You… Killed a Kage?"
Naruto ignored her and glared at Kakuzu. "What do you want, old man?"
The bounty hunter sighed. "You fucked up, Jin, you made it personal?"
The blond grinned. "Never knew Yagura was a member of your little group."
Kakuzu shook his head. "You don't get it. This is not about Yagura…"
Naruto looked in confusion. "Then what?"
"Kisame."
Jin's eyes widened.
"Oh, you thought they will send him, didn't you?" Kakuzu smirked. "Tough luck, buddy."
"One more word, Kakuzu…" Jin growled.
"Don't worry." The old man interrupted by raising his hand. "I will not reveal your other secret… if you do what I say."
Naruto gritted his teeth. "What do you want?"
"I want a fight…"
"Great. Back me up, Kakashi…"
"Oh no…" Kakuzu shook his head. "First of all, Kakashi will simply be in our way. And second, I want to settle things between us, Jin. Settle means one on one, no limits or rules."
'I will be in their way?' Kakashi thought in confusion. 'Just how strong this Kakuzu is? And…' He glanced at Naruto. 'How weak he pretended to be?'
'If he reveals it right now, all my plans will be fucked. No choice…' Naruto took a deep breath. "Very well, I accept."
"Jin-kun!"
"Don't worry, Tsubaki." He looked at her over his shoulder and smiled. "This time I will return for sure." The blond said before disappearing.
Another clearing… (Starting song: "Cast me aside" by Drowning Pool)
CLANG.
"Tch!" Naruto scowled as his sword was blocked by Kakuzu's hand.
"Too slow!" Kakuzu replied, throwing Jin off of him.
"Hishouken!" The blond threw an ice blade at his opponent before landing gracefully.
The old bounty hunter sighed. "Oh please." He said, crushing the ice blade with his bare hand. "I said no limits. Stop holding back."
Naruto paused for a moment, but then grinned and relaxed his stance.
"You are a fucking son of a bitch, you know that?" He exclaimed. "Your little revelation has almost fucked up all my plans!"
Kakuzu smirked back under his mask. "Oh, don't be such a pussy. I know you can dig yourself up out of any hole… Naruto."
Jin's eyebrows shot up.
"Are you surprised?" The bounty hunter asked. "Well you shouldn't be. After our last fight that destroyed the entire town, I started to gather information about you."
"Hmhmhmhmhm…" The blond chuckled. "And how did you guess? I'm sure I didn't give you any leads."
"You are correct, it was not easy." Kakuzu nodded. "Almost no one had any specific information about you. All I managed to gather is extreme fighting ability, almost unlimited stamina, the killing of Mizukage and Sharingan that you used in our battle. Combining all of that, I concluded this. No simple human your age can be strong enough to beat a Kage and a jinchuriki at that. So I came to realize that you are a jinchuriki as well. Then another question popped up. What do you host. That's where Sharingan came in mind. Since you have it, then you are probably somehow related to Konoha. And Konoha had only one bijuu in their possession through their entire history. The Kyuubi… And Kyuubi's jinchuriki was? Exactly. Besides, I checked it. You appeared several years after Uzumaki Naruto has disappeared."
Naruto bowed his head down. "Kh… Khh… KHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!" He laughed hard and clapped his hands. "Bravo! A total jackpot! My hat is off to you, buddy… damn, I really need to buy a hat. But let me ask you this… What did it gave you?"
Kakuzu's eyes narrowed. "As you said, it 'gave me' that you are far stronger than you pretended to be in our last fight! And if there is anything I cannot forgive it's being underestimated!" He shouted, throwing his cloak off.
"Ho!" Jin said in amusement. "So you want to fight me at my fullest?"
"Damn right I do!" The bounty hunter grunted. "I fought Shodaime Hokage to a standstill! I came up alone against the entire Hidden village! And I sure as hell won't be underestimated by some teenager!"
"Hmhmhmhmhm…" Naruto chuckled darkly. "! Want to fight me at my fullest?" He asked, unleashing a huge amount of ki. "Be careful what you wish for!"
Bounty hunter's eyes widened for a second. 'His power is incredible…'
"What's the matter?" Naruto mocked. "Have second thoughts?"
"Grah!" Kakuzu growled in rage and attacked Naruto head on with a punch.
CLANG.
"You really should stop being so reckless…" The blond said, blocking bounty hunter's hand with his sword.
"Shut up!" Kakuzu screamed, pushing Naruto back. "You…"
"Raikiri!"
Kakuzu looked down in shock. Yep, there was a lightning covered hand sticking out of his chest.
"I told you to stop being reckless." Naruto said from behind, withdrawing his hand from Kakuzu's chest. "One down, four to go."
"Tch!" Kakuzu spat in anger. "But how…?" Words died in his throat when Naruto in front of him crumbled into ice.
"Anger clouds judgment, you know…" Jin stated, grinning evilly.
"Fuck you!" Kakuzu shouted as three masked… creatures escaped from his body and surrounded Naruto.
"Oh? Decided to bring out the goodies, huh? Well then…" Naruto activated his Sharingan. "You asked yourself that I fight you with my all."
Kakuzu did several handseals. "Katon: Zukkoku!" He shouted and acreature from the left shot a massive amount of fire at Jin.
"Fire?" Said jinchuriki asked in amusement. "Che, let me show you how this is done! Amaterasu!"
Immediately a stream of black fire absorbed Kakuzu's jutsu and reached the masked creature, absorbing it as well.
Bounty hunter's eyes widened. "Th-That's…!"
"Two down, three to go!" Naruto exclaimed happily, turning to Kakuzu with blazing Mangekyo Sharingan in his eyes. "I guess you did not a very good job at gathering information about me, ne?"
"Raiton: Gian!"
Naruto only rolled his eyes when another jutsu flew at him.
BLAST.
Kakuzu's eyes narrowed again. 'He took that hit head on… What is he playing at?'
Suddenly an arrow of ice escaped from the cloud of smoke…
"Hyoku Getsumei!"
The old man could only watch in shock as another one of his hearts got destroyed.
"Hmhmhmhmhm…" Naruto chuckled from the smoke. "Is that all you got? I liked our previous fight more."
"What the hell are you?" Kakuzu screamed. "Even Hashirama couldn't take that jutsu head on and survive!"
"Haha! Well, I guess Hashirama simply didn't have this!"
A gush of wind blew the smoke away, showing Naruto standing in his place absolutely unharmed and… with a cloak of red chakra around him. Six tails were also waving behind his back.
Kakuzu's eyes widened. 'This is bad. I only have two hearts left, and if he will combine his Mangekyo with his demon cloak…' He gritted his teeth. 'I underestimated him. Looks like a retreat is in order.'
"Oh?" Naruto exclaimed when he saw the last heart return back into Kakuzu's body. "Don't tell me you're giving up…"
"Unfortunately I have to." The bounty hunter stated. "I know where my limits lie, that's why I was able to live that long."
"Smart." Naruto replied, cancelling his demon cloak. "But you do understand that I can't simply let you leave."
Kakuzu shook his head. "Don't worry, I won't reveal your secret to anyone. Consider it a token of respect.
Naruto paused for a moment. "You know what; I will let you leave on one condition…"
"What is it?"
Naruto's eyes narrowed. "Itachi… Where is he?"
Kakuzu smirked. "Oh, I have good news for you on that front. Itachi was assigned to capture the nine tails jinchuriki. So he will surely come either after you or that Tsubaki girl."
Naruto grinned evilly. "That is excellent news! In fact they are excellent enough for me to get out of my way and really let you go."
The old man raised an eyebrow. "You weren't going to?"
"Until you mentioned Itachi, no. I was going to kill you anyway. But now… hmhmhm." The blond chuckled. "Just remember one thing. If you disrupt my plans in some way…"
"I will not." Kakuzu stated. "It is important for me that you survive as well."
"Oh? And why is that?"
Kakuzu smirked. "Because I want to be the one who will claim the bounty on your head."
"Hahaha! Fair enough! Just be more prepared next time…"
Back with the others…
"Omote Renge!" Kakashi shouted, slamming Rouga Nadare's head into the ground, breaking his neck efficiently. "Done. What about you, Anko?"
"Hehehe…"
"Anko!"
"What?" Special jounin turned around with a bloodied kunai in her hand… and insane smile on her face.
Kakashi face faulted. "I guess you're done as well…"
"Heads up!" Naruto exclaimed, landing between them. "What did I miss?"
"Kisaragi." Masked jounin said dangerously. "Just the person I wanted to talk to…"
Jin shrugged. "Well, I'll be happy to have a nice chat with you, but first…" He looked around. "Where is Tsubaki?"
"That is none of your…" Kakashi started, but Anko interrupted him.
"That Dotou guy got our hime." She stated. "Tsubaki-chan and her cute little teammates went after him."
"Well shit." Jin said, creating an ice platform and jumping on top of it. "I'm going after them."
"You're not going anywhere, Kisaragi, until…"
But Jin already flew away.
"Son of a…" Kakashi gritted his teeth. "Come on, Anko! We're following them!"
"Sure, sure!" The kunoichi exclaimed. "But how about a quick sex first?"
Kakashi slapped his face. 'Thanks for the mission, sensei! Thank you very much!'
With Koyuki…
"A generator?" Snow country Daimyo exclaimed in slight shock. "Hmhm… Hmhmhahahahahaha! Oh brother, you were always a useless imbecile, but I had no idea how much…"
Koyuki chuckled. "Poor uncle. Were you expecting a weapon of some sort?"
Dotou looked at his niece in amusement. "To tell the truth… yeah, I did."
"I hope the disappointment is not too much."
Dotou smiled tiredly. "He knew it… Rattlesnake knew it."
Suddenly…
"Kazahana Dotou!"
"Eh?" The daimyo turned around to see angered Tsubaki alongside her teammates.
"This ends now!"
Dotou tilted his head to the side. "Ah, you're Kakashi's students… Are you sure you want to face me? Rattlesnake won't be covering you this time."
"We don't need him!" Sasuke shouted, bringing forth a katana he picked up from one of the fallen samurais. "We are more than enough to defeat you!" He said… taking Jin's stance.
"!" Dotou laughed hard. "Trying to look like Rattlesnake, boy? Give up, you have no chance."
"Shut up!" The Uchiha screamed in rage and darted forward.
"Sasuke, no!" Tsubaki tried to stop him, but he wasn't listening.
"Hyoton: Kokuryuu Bofuusetsu!"
"Sasuke-kun, look out!" Sakura shouted as she saw Dotou firing a black ice dragon at her crush.
"Not enough!" Sasuke replied, dodging the attack because of his Sharingan. "Take this!" And with that he brought the newly acquired katana on his enemy's head, but…
CLANG.
"Not enough you say?" Dotou asked, blocking the strike with his armor covered hand. "You can't be more right, boy. You don't have enough strength, you don't have enough determination, you don't have enough… purpose to become like Rattlesnake."
Sasuke's eyes widened at this.
"Oh? A Sharingan?" Dotou noticed. "You're an Uchiha then… pathetic."
"W-What?"
"I said you're pathetic!" Dotou stated. "I never met an Uchiha in my entire life, but I always assumed that they are all unbeatable warriors." He paused. "But now that I look at you, I understand that I was sadly mistaken. What a disappointment."
"SHUT UP!" Sasuke screamed as his cursed seal spread over his body. "I am stronger than him!" He pushed Dotou back.
"Ho…" The Daimyo looked in confusion. "You think so? Really? Then let me tell you this, boy. There is no man I would like to evade battle with more than Jin Kisaragi. And it's not because he's strong, oh no. I'd hate to face him because he's smart, slimy and cunning bastard. He always knows things before they even happen! Do you understand now why you can't be like him? No amount of training can get you this ability."
"Don't listen to him, Sasuke!" Tsubaki interrupted. "You don't need to be Jin, you are good as you are…"
"Tsubaki…"
"Ah, you're that girl from before who tried to prevent me from taking Koyuki."
"Yes, I am." Tsubaki said, taking out a Hiraishin kunai. "Let's take him down together, Sasuke."
"Hai!" The Uchiha nodded. "Back us up, Sakura!"
"Got it!"
"Katon: Goukakyu no jutsu!"
"Hyoton: Kokuryuu Bofuusetsu!"
Two jutsus collided against one another, with blizzard quickly overpowering fire.
"Tch." Sasuke scowled, jumping to the side to evade the attack. "Now, Tsubaki!"
"Hiraishin no jutsu!" Tsubaki exclaimed, appearing behind Dotou and stabbing him in the back with her kunai.
"Gah! You will pay for that!" The daimyo stated, turning around quickly and punching Tsubaki in the stomach… However he was not done yet. "Hyoton: Kokuryuu Bofuusetsu!"
"KYAH!" Tsubaki screamed as an ice dragon struck her head on.
"TSUBAKI!" Sasuke screamed and attacked with his sword again.
"Useless!" Dotou stated deflecting the strike with his hand once again.
"That was not intended to strike!" Sasuke said… from behind.
"What?" Dotou turned around sharply, just to receive…
"Chirori!" Sasuke slammed his lightning covered hand right in the middle of Dotou's chest, but…
"As if that level of jutsu will be enough to break my armor!" Dotou said, throwing Sasuke into a wall of ice.
"Gah!" The Uchiha spat some blood. "Damn… DAMN!"
"Sasuke-kun!" Sakura rushed to his side.
"Don't!" He replied. "Help Tsubaki!"
Despite her aching heart Sakura stood up. "H-Hai!" She took out a kunai.
"Ahahaha!" Dotou laughed. "You? You look like a bunny! What can you possibly do to me?"
"Ouch, a bunny! And here I thought you liked me…" A sudden voice said from behind.
Dotou's eyes widened. 'I'll know that voice anywhere!' He turned around sharply. "Rattle…!"
SLASH.
"…Snake…" Dotou looked down in shock to see the blade of Naruto's katana inside of his chest. "So you won…"
Jin smirked. "What did you expect? I'm a Rattlesnake after all."
"Hm… Hmhmhm…" Dotou chuckled. "Just one question, did you know…?"
"Ah, about the generator you mean?" Jin finished for him. "Naturally, why do you think I let Yukie to keep that crystal, knowing you were out for it?"
"B-But how… cough…" The Daimyo spat some blood. "Even I didn't know… and I… cough… I researched it for years…"
"Nah, I simply guessed." Naruto said dismissively. "From what Yukie has told me, your brother really was an idiot. Always blabbering about spring and all that crap. Think about it, you know him better than I did. What could he possibly invent?"
"I see…" Dotou lowered his head in defeat. "End it."
Naruto shrugged. "As you wish. Frozen Requiem."
Sasuke and Sakura watched in awe and fascination how Dotou's body turned to ice… and then disappeared into dust.
"Farewell, Dotou…"
Sasuke clenched his fist angrily. 'I tried my best… And he just killed him like it was nothing!'
"You will never be as strong as him."
A very determined look appeared on his face as his eyes narrowed. 'We'll see about that! Time to end this sharade!'
Suddenly…
"Jin!"
Sasuke looked up to see Tsubaki hugging Jin tightly.
That made him even angrier. 'How could you choose him over me? I… I…'
"It's okay, girl. Everything is over." Naruto said reassuringly.
Tsubaki slapped his shoulder.
"Ouch! What was that for?"
"First those Kumo guys, then this Kakuzu… When will you stop scaring me like that, Jin?"
Naruto smirked. "I guess when I retire…"
"Thank you, Jin."
The blond turned his head to see Koyuki's smiling face.
"You've saved my life again." The princess spoke.
"I guess…" He replied standing up. "So what now? You are the rightful ruler of this country you know…"
"Yes, I know… But to tell the truth, I actually liked my actress job, so…"
Then…
"Amazing! Brilliant! Fantastic!"
They all turned to see a very happy… director.
"That film will go down in history!"
Tsubaki tilted her head. "You recorded all of this?"
"Of course, how could I not?" The director replied. "There is just one thing…" He kneeled in front of Naruto. "Please, sir! I beg you to play in the final scenes!"
"Eh?" Naruto exclaimed in confusion. "But I'm not an actor!"
"Please, sir! I'll do anything and… Oh, of course you will be paid greatly!"
Naruto shook his head. "Well, I'm not really…" He looked down at the director. "What sum are we speaking about?"
The cinema…
"Cough… Cough… You will pay for that, Mao!"
"HAHAHA!" Mao laughed. "Will I really? Look around you, Fuun-hime! You are all alone! I on the other hand…"
The princess looked around to see many spirit soldiers rising.
"See? You cannot win, Fuun! Give up!"
Fuun closed her eyes. "No… I will never give up!" She stated as a seven colored chakra started to flare around her. "And I am not alone!"
"Is that so? All your servants are dead! Now you have no one to protect your pretty little face!"
The princess got on her knees. "The power of Heaven and Earth please hear my plea! Help me save the world from this man's evil and bring peace to this land!"
"No one will hear you!" Mao shouted. "No one can stop me!"
"Me as a bringer of peace… ridiculous." Naruto commented.
"Be quiet!" Tsubaki shunned him, looking at the screen with stars in her eyes.
Naruto shook his head. 'Well she is a girl after all…'
Suddenly a bright flash of light happened…
"Your call has been answered, Fuun-hime."
The princess's eyes widened as she looked at the sky. "Lord Susannoo…"
"Indeed." The newcomer spoke, slowly descending from the sky. "I am Susannoo, the god of sea and storm. I have come to help you in your struggle."
"I don't care if you're a god!" Mao screamed, unleashing his power. "I have become a god's equal! You will fall before my might!"
Susannoo's white glowing eyes narrowed. "Fuun-hime, lend me your hand. We will take him down together."
"Hai, my lord!" The princess stood up, flaring her chakra once again.
"Mao! For all your sins I sentence you to eternal oblivion!" Susannoo exclaimed, creating an arrow of ice. "May you find peace there. Fuun-hime!"
"Hai!" Fuun responded, enveloping the arrow with her seven color chakra.
"Farewell, Mao! Divine Bolt!"
"GRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHH!" Mao screamed as his body was quickly obliterated by the combined attack of Fuun and Susannoo.
"Huff… Huff…" The princess fell on her knees. "It's over… it's finally over…"
"Not yet." Susannoo replied.
She looked up slowly. "My lord?"
Susannoo stroke her cheek with his palm gently. "There is one more thing left to do… We must go… beyond that rainbow."
Fuun smiled warmly. "Hai!"
THE END.
Director – Takeshiro Murakawa.
Princess Fuun – Fujikaze Yukie.
Mao – Makemura Fukushima.
Susannoo – Jin Kisaragi…
"CHEEEEEEEEEEEER!"
"HAAAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHA!" Anko laughed. "You are great, you know that?"
"Yeah, I know." Naruto replied. "Why would you say something like that though?"
"That's because I would've never been able to say that crap about the rainbow with a straight face!"
Naruto snorted. "Do you know how many tries it took for me to actually do that?"
"Oh, but it looked so romantic!" Tsubaki stated with hearts in her eyes. "Will you say that to me too, Jin?"
"Not if I can help it."
"Kakashi-sensei?"
"Exactly." Masked jounin replied. "I hope you had your fun, because very soon you will have a very serious discussion with Hokage-sama."
Naruto's eyes narrowed. "I can't wait…"
...
Well, there you have it.
Now it's time for the REAL MAJOR SPOILER: you wanted to know when Naruto will blow his cover? The answer is… next chapter. I hope your curiosity will finally be satisfied.
But for now… Fuck like hell and sleep well…
Then wake up, drink cola and fuck again!
Darthemius.
