Yay chapter 27! I hope you enjoy this just as much as I did writing it!

Disclaimor: I don't own Naruto or Blues Clues. It would be awesome if I did though. ;)

Chapter 27

"Long time no see Jiraiya." Orochimaru hissed.

"Yo, you haven't changed at all. . . those wild eyes." Jiraiya retorted.

"Hey creeper! How's the penis?" Joe yelled out. Orochimaru eyes got wide, not the surprised wide but the 'psycho I'm gonna kill you', wide. Alasia smirked at his reaction.

"Let's get this started shall we?" Alasia cracked her knuckles.

"Let's" Joe answered with a smirk.

"Move!" Tsunade plowed her way through the group, aiming a punch at Kabuto. When they collided, blood splattered all over Tsunade. Kabuto had cut his wrist with a kunai. Tsunade paused, eyes widening in fear. Kabuto took advantage of the situation and threw the woman to the side.

"Crap!" Joe yelled as she ran to catch her. She just made it in time before the future Hokage hit the ground.

Kabuto jumped back over to Orochimaru and took a pill to stop the bleeding in his wrist.

"Joe. Is she okay?" Shizune ran over. She helped sit Tsunade down. The woman didn't respond to the two helping her. She just continued to stare down at the ground.

"Yeah. Just a little bit spooked because of the blood."

Over by the two creepers, Orochimaru started to unravel the bandages on his left arm.

"He's going to summon something!" Joe yelled.

"You don't say!" Alasia retorted.

"I've got this." Jiraiya started to summon one of his toads at the same time as the creeper duo. The results, two giant snakes for the pedo team, one small gamakichi (sp?) for the good guys.

"Wha!" Jiraiya's eyes bulged out of his head.

"Oh yeah, that's sure going to help us." Joe rolled her eyes. Alasia closed her eyes and pinched the bridge of her nose.

"I've got it!" Naruto exclaimed. When he started to jutsu, Joe and Alasia could feel a slight tension from everyone for they were wondering what would happen. When the cloud cleared away, gamakichi's brother was there. Joe facepalmed and Alaisa sighed.

"Pathetic." The snake man hissed. Both snakes then dived in to attack the group. Everyone dodged but got split up. Jiyaiya jumped on top of the snake his old teammate was on and started fighting with him. Alasia grabbed Naruto in midair before he could get swallowed. Joe had gabbed Tsunade to get her out of the way and Shizune followed. Shizune wasn't quick enough and got knocked out. During the fray, Kabuto and jumped down and started making his way toward Joe and Tsunade.

"Joe! You handle Tsunade. We need her to snap out of it. I'm going to help Jiraiya." Alasia called. Joe gave an affirmative nod.

"What about me?" Naruto looked up at Alasia. She smirked at the boy. "You go crush four eyes." She gave him a slight push and jumped into the fight happening on the big snake.

Joe was getting ready to strike as Kabuto was running over to her. Any second now! He was getting ready to punch Tsunade when Naruto came from out of nowhere and blocked the punch with his head. Kabuto's fist connected with the blond's forehead protector, just a little bit of blood trickled down from underneath the mettle on his head. Tsunade, and even Kabuto were surprised. Right on time! Joe thought.

"Naruto, you got this?" She asked.

Naruto had the look of determination along with an 'I am seriously going to kick your butt' gleam mixed in. "Yeah. I'm going to end it!" Naruto started to make a rassengan using both his hands. He then crouched down, bringing his hands to the side and quickly thrust the attack at Kaubuto. The grey haired teen ducked lowly to the side and grabbed Naruto's leg with a chakra fused hand, cracking it.

"Don't worry about him. He can handle it." Joe reassured Tsunade. She could see the hint of worry in the blond woman's eyes. Tsunade gave Joe a quick look then turned her attention back to the fight.

Naruto slowly tried to get up. He winced every time he put pressure on his leg.

"I managed to crack your right femur bone. Even after that, you're still moving but you can't win since you can't stand." Kabuto said with a cocky attitude. Naruto managed to get on his knees. He looked up and glared at his enemy.

"heh, afraid of me? Feel like running away?" Naruto's glare intensive, giving any Uchiha a run for his money. Tsunade was tense as she watch on. Joe was sitting next to her, smirking.

"Your nothing special, Naruto. You should run . . . if you can still move. It was luck that you became a genin. Now do you possibly think you could become Hokage? If you want to grow up to be a true champion, it'd be best if you ran. Now what's with those eyes? That'll get you killed. If you die here, you'll never achieve your dreams or anything else." When Kabuto said the last sentence, Joe gave him a 'you don't say!' look. He gave her a quick glare then continued to talk to Naruto.

"Of course if you can speak so calmly about a dream like that. . . you can't run away. So die!" Kabuto sneered.

Naruto shook as he tried to stand up. "I'm . . . not ready to . . . give up yet." He lifted up his head and glared. "That is my ninja way!" Kabuto looked annoyed. Of course it didn't help that Joe was sticking her tongue out at him. Tsunade's face showed a soft wonder and aw as she look at the boy in front of her. She slowly brought her hand up and touched her necklace.

Before anyone could blink, Kabuto back handed Naruto. The poor blond skidded to the side closer to Joe and Tsunade.

"What?" Tsunade asked. Naruto slowly got up on to his feet. "Why . . . Why are you. . ."

"Granny Tsunade, remember that bet . . . now you will have to give me that necklace of yours." Naruto created a shadow clone. Kabuto whipped out a kunai and ran towards Naruto.

"Naruto stop!" Tsunade yelled. Kabuto got closer yelling that Naruto was going to die.

"If you die you'll never accomplish your dreams!" Kabuto got ever closer. Naruto wasn't bugging.

"That's enough Naruto! Get out of the way! RUN!" Naruto smirked just as Kabuto stabbed the kunai at him. Naruto put his hand up to block it. The kunai pearced his hand, going right through it. He ignored the kunai and grabbed Kabuto's hand.

"Until I become Hokage . . . I refuse to die!" He had a spark in his eyes and a soft but confident smile on his lips. Tsunade's eyes widened. Joe put a hand on her shoulder and smiled. "See, I told you third one's the charm." She winked.

"You're not getting away from this one." Naruto's clone aided him in making another rassengan. The clone steadied the chakra as Naruto formed it, creating a perfect spiral sphere. With an iron grip on the teen's hand, Naruto slammed the ball of energy into Kabuto's gut. Naruto let go just in time for Kabuto to be sent flying in a huge ball of energy. He eventually stopped by slamming into a bolder behind him.

~Over with Alasia~

"Go Naruto!" Alasia cheered. As they were fighting, the three of them were keeping an eye on the fight below. All three stopped. To see what was happening.

Jiraiya smirked. "Looks like the kid did it." Orochimaru grumbled.

"How about them apples!" Alasia gave the creeper a mocking smile. Just before he could retaliate,

"NARUTO!" All three looked down to see TSunade and Joe on either side of a laying down, barely conscience Naruto and Kabuto standing up.

"How!" Tsunade yelled.

Kabuto explained that he gathered up chakra in his abs just before he got hit, already healing the area before he himself coughed up blood and collapsed.

"Looks

~Over by Joe~

Joe and Tsunade rushed over to Naruto's side. Joe noticed a hint of a smile on his face. Joe's eye's softened and a small smile appeared on her lips.

"You . . . how . . ." Tsunade asked. Joe's face immediately hardened and she turned her head to glare at Kabuto. Granted she knew Naruto wouldn't die but it still pissed her off to see the boy hurt like this.

"I collected chakra in my abs so that I would start healing right away. It is an ability to activate all of my cells which helps creat new one to replace the damaged ones. That technique . . . looked like Naruto's last gamble." No sooner after he said that, he coughed up blood and fell forward. Tsunade had stopped paying attention to the teen and was trying to heal Naruto. She had ripped his shirt open so she had better access to the wounds underneath.

"Heh, It's too late for you Naruto. The chakra in your heart muscles has been sapped. The blood flow . . . to your heart . . . has been . . . stoped. I've cut off any potential of you recovering on your own."

"SHUT UP!" Both women yelled. They didn't take their eyes off of the blond in front of them. Joe put her hands over top of Tsunade's and fed her more chakra. Tsunade looked up so Joe smiled at her. "I don't know medical jutsu so this is the only way I can help. Besides, you're going to need your chakra later." Tsunade nodded and looked back down at Naruto.

Slowly, the seal on Naruto's stomach appeared. Then Naruto's hand slowly came up and gently grabbed Tsunade's necklace. "The bet . . . I won." Naruto whispered. His smile grew a little more as his eyes closed again. Joe watched as Tsunade's eye widened then slowly she began to cry. She smiled as she took her necklace off and put in around Naruto's neck. Joe gave Tsunade a thumbs up and a big, goofy grin. TSunade shook her head, her smile never leaving.

~Over with Alasia~

"Looks like the kid isn't doing well." Orochimaru said.

"If you mean Kabuto then yeah I agree with you." Alasia replied.

"Tsunade was once a medical specialist. With Naruto under her care there is nothing to worry about. You should worry about yourself." Jiraiya said. Orochimaru glared at the two then looked down at the group below. It look as though he came to a conclusion about something then dived for Naruto.

Alasia and Jiraiya jumped down to follow him but weren't as fast. Just as Orochimaru was going to stab Naruto with the sword coming out of his mouth, Tsunade and Joe jumped in to protect him. The sword went right through both of them.

"JOE!" Alasia screamed in terror.

"It's all good Alasia . . . just a scratch. . . so just stay over there . . . for now."

"I didn't want to kill you, Tsunade. If that brat survives, he'll cause a great deal of trouble later on. Don't get in my way." Orochimaru said.

"No . . . I'm going-" Tsunade stop. She felt a tap in her shoulder so she look back. Joe gave her a look that said 'hey don't forget about me'. She turned back to the man before her. "We are going to protect him no matter what." She finished. "That's better" Joe mumbled. She then coughed up some blood. It trickled down her chin.

Orochimaru pulled out his sword and stood up. "Why Tsunade are you, one of the legendary Sannin, risking your life for this worthless gennin brat? I can understand the worthless bitch behind you but not you." Joe glared at him for the name calling. She would have to get back at him for that.

"To protect Konoha." Was her simple answer. She looked back at Naruto with a small smile. "You want to know why? This kid is the future Hokage."

"Fufu, What are you babbling about? Hokage is worthless, only fools want it." Orochimaru quoted. Tsunade remembered the time in the bar when she had said those very words. She also remembered the words of everyone else at the time. She looked up at him with a confident smirk. "From now on I too shall bet my life."

"If you are going to throw away your life for a worthless brat like him then you can die like the trash you are protecting!" Orochimaru spit out his sword and slashed down, effectively cutting Tsunade down. He then quickly kicked Joe out of the way to get to Naruto. Just before sliced Naruto, Tsunade and Joe moved on top of the blond. The sword hit Tsunade since she was shielding Joe as well.

"Didn't I tell you? I said I would bet my life." Orochimaru jumped back as Both women stood up. Tsunade punch Orochimaru and sent him flying a couple feet back.

"Why am I doing this? Because I am the 5th Hokage of the Hidden leaf!" Markings branching out from her diamond appeared on Tsunade's face.

"It's about damn time our Hokage showed up." Joe commented next to her. Tsunade smirked as she did a hand seal to start her healing jutsu. Of course Orochimaru asked about it so Tsunade told him all about how it will heal anything and everything at an extremely fast rate. Joe noticed that all three Sannin were getting ready to do a summoning so she joined in.

A great cloud of smoke appeared on the field as four giant animal stood facing off. Alasia managed to jump onto Joe's summon. "Joe! Are you okay?" She asked.

Before Joe could respond, a miniature sized slug appeared on her shoulder. "Don't worry Joe. Tsunade sent me to help give you chakra and heal your wounds." She said in a soft voice. Joe smiled. "Can you tell he I said thank you?"

"Yes."

"Glad that you're okay. Now can you tell me why the hell is Blue pink?"

"That's because I'm not Blue nimrod! I'm Magenta." The giant dog growled.

Magenta makes his appearance! Woo hoo! hahaha I can't wait to read your reviews! :D
