(Naruto's mind)
"Focus your power." Tommy said to Naruto as he was learning the Rasengan "Channel what you have learned." he said as Naruto learned to channel power through his weapons and into them as well "As Jungle Fury Ranger you channel your power through you, focus that with your rasengan." he said to him.
Naruto listened intently as he began practicing again.
(with Haku)
Haku watched as Naruto practiced an S-rank technique and through various methods, she had seen it turn various colors so she assumed he was using individual ranger powers along with his chakra.
"Ok, I am killing him." Shizuka said as Jiraiya had become insufferable after becoming a ranger, he had been striking poses like a dumbass.
Haku felt the same as while rangers had their own unique poses none were as vain as Jiraiya was being.
(next day)
Haku had heard of Tsunade as she was the world's strongest female shinobi, but she knew there was more to people than rumors, while the others hunted rumors, she listened to things the slug sannin had done in the town 'Debt, debt with mobs, debt with bankers, who isn't she in debt with.' she thought to herself as this was kind of sad to witness and behold of someone many aspired to be.
(few days later)
Jiraiya was done learning what he could from his new wild force powers, but in that time he had seen Naruto master each step 'He's their son alright.' he thought to himself as Naruto had his parents' grit engraved in his bones 'Not only that he's trying to do what Minato couldn't.' he thought as Naruto was trying to add to the Rasengan.
(next day)
The team had found their target and weren't as impressed by meeting the sannin in person.
"Ok let's go home." Naruto said surprising the others.
"Wait back up, you are giving up?" Shizuka asked as that was the opposite of what Naruto would do.
"I don't give up, but clearly this aged dried-up old prune of a sannin isn't who she used to be?" Naruto said as many looked at him in shock "She's no shinobi, she's a shell of her former self, she has no right to be considered for a candidacy for Hokage." he said as he shocked the group even more.
"You arrogant little brat who do you think you are!" Tsunade said angrily.
"Oh, your angry funny how a rotten old bitch cares when she was just minutes ago disrespecting the dead and her master." Naruto said taking it a step farther grabbing Jiraiya's saki and flung it in her face "I am Naruto Uzumaki, but let me clear that up you disrespecting cow, I took Orochimaru's arms and kicked his ass, I trained under a legendary swordsman of the mist, I am a chunin of the leaf, I'm a ranger, and most importantly my name is Naruto Uzumaki!" he said to her.
Everyone had to admit, Naruto had pretty massive balls to insult this woman and disrespect her to her face.
Tsunade had met a lot of men who talked big, but this one seemed slightly different from them, but she didn't care as he insulted her and flung saki at her face "It's time you learned your place brat, outside!" she said as she dragged Naruto outside.
(few minutes later)
Naruto wordlessly changed into his Dino Thunder armor.
"That's his best play." Shizuka said to the others as Naruto couldn't hope to match her in strength so he needed speed to counter.
"Hit me." Naruto said not even drawing his weapons shocking everyone.
"Is he drunk right now!?" Jiraiya asked in shock as no one would willingly ask Tsunade to hit them of their own free will if they were in the right state of mind.
"What you going deaf now to hag, I said bring it on!" Naruto said knowing he had to time this right.
Tsunade was done with the insults so she charged and just as she was an inch away from making contact his body glowed and the moment she connected she was zapped.
Naruto now in his red dragon armor look relieved "I can't believe that actually worked." he said making his helmet disappear "Now take this!" he said making a blue sphere appear in his hand.
Tsunade even while she was on the ground knew the attack and was surprised by what she saw 'A kid mastered the Rasengan!' she thought to herself in shock, but she saw something else as well rainbow sparks, she saw multiple colored sparks coming off his Rasengan, she dodged as he was about to hit the spot she was at a second ago.
Naruto summoned the sword of darkness to his hand along with the dragon dagger in the other slamming the sword down it caused the ground to crack and went to Tsunade and he fired a lightning beam from the dagger.
Tsunade dodged again and saw the ground explode from her recent spot and barely dodged his follow up attack.
"That's enough." Naruto said demorphing "It's like I thought you're not worth it." he said walking away.
Jiraiya saw the red in Tsunade's eyes and got between her and Naruto "Don't even try it." he said knowing when Tsunade's pride was struck she often went ballistic.
Tsunade didn't care "Hey brat!" she said calling out to Naruto who ignored her as he kept walking "Don't you ignore me, how about a wager!" she said seeing him stop.
"You have nothing I want and I have nothing to gain from you." Naruto said as if it was the most obvious thing in the world.
"Oh yeah what about my necklace, it belonged to the first Hokage." Tsunade said to him seeing him look at the necklace on her chest and not her chest a first for her she'd admit.
"Ok I win I get the necklace, what do you want and what are the terms?" Naruto asked never playing by someone else's rules without knowing the game.
"Easy, the fourth Hokage never pushed the Rasengan, do you think you are up to the task?" Tsunade said as she taunted him.
Jiraiya thought this was a little low even by Tsunade's standards.
"He accepts." Tommy said making his presence known "I believe in you, now go train!" he said to Naruto making his host/student/partner run outside of town "And you!" he said looking at Tsunade "You had better be ready to eat humble pie with a side of crow, he WILL win this bet." he said knowing and believing in Naruto "Oh and let me be clear on one thing." he said as a green aura poured out of him.
Everyone froze from the power he let out.
"Never disrespect the dead, you worthless speck, those men may have died, but at least they died with purpose and for the sake of others." Tommy said having no doubt those men could have been worthy of being rangers, not so much the second Hokage but definitely the first "While you drink your life away, Naruto called it, you are a shell, when he wins the bet do us all a favor and go back to your life, I bet we'll hear you died in some fucking gutter." he said walking away.
Tsunade glared at his retreating figure wanting to fight back and dispute everything he said but her breath was caught in her throat.
(next morning)
"Hey, can I ask you something?" Naruto asked Haku as she was with him during his training while Jiraiya and Shizuka were watching Tsunade.
"Sure what do you need?" Haku asked wondering what help she could offer.
"How does your kekkei genkai work and I mean how does it make ice so easily?" Naruto asked her as he was curious about that.
"It's rather simple if you can believe." Haku said to him "Each clan has a genetic marker in their bloodline since mine is ice when I use my ninjutsu my body naturally makes the water and wind chakra I have and makes it into ice on pure instinct, now for someone with my elements they couldn't pull off ice as well as the Yuki clan." she said as that was the baseline for all elemental kekkei genkai.
"So technically someone can blend chakra to make ice?" Naruto asked her curiously.
"Under certain conditions." Haku said knowing it wasn't impossible "How does this help your training might I ask?" she asked finding his line of questioning a bit off-topic.
"Well the Rasengan takes a few steps in order to create, but the real issue is blending the secondary power into it, it's why I asked about your kekkei genkai, your body naturally makes it so your water and wind chakra blend to make ice, while I need to adapt what I'm putting into my Rasengan and learn on the go." he said as this will be difficult.
'Each ranger power is different and he hasn't combined them with pure chakra ninjutsu.' Haku thought as while all ranger powers were similar they were far from being the same thing 'And wind and fire are volatile.' she thought as wind could slice and cut a person and fire burned having that power in his palm could spell major backlash if he wasn't careful.
(Naruto's mind)
"Oh would you please shut up!" the dragonzord said in annoyance as Naruto had been growing steadily and so it was no surprise that his mind had manifestations of those powers, the Dino Thunder zords were annoying him as both craved battle, the lion folding zord while with Naruto could manifest here was rather quiet not really caring but it glared at Kurama constantly, the Mystic Firebird was the true annoyance as it was basically manifesting all of Naruto's stamina and energy, and finally there was the Tyrannosaurus zord it was very annoying given it pissed him off greatly as ever since their powers fused to become Naruto's main armor both hated the other as he hated how Naruto was red and Tyrannosaurus hated how Naruto was called the the red dragon.
All the zords knew their host was training and they couldn't be prouder.
Kurama was bored as his 'company' was as rambunctious as his host if that was even possible.
"He is not going to fall for your tricks." Dragozord said to Kurama "I know what you are doing as I have done it myself." he said as influencing Trent Mercer and later being influenced by Mesogog's monster, he saw the error of oppression and how badly it was "He has done nothing to warrant your anger leave him be." he said as that was the end of it.
Kurama growled in annoyance.
(few hours later)
"What's he doing setting off paper bombs?" Shizuka asked seeing multiple craters all around the field Naruto had been training at.
"He's practicing what types of Rasengan he can use, it's been a sight to see." Haku said as she was not far off when she said the thing about the paper bombs, but it was more akin to fire works "He's discovered what types of Rasengan he can possibly use." she said to her.
"He mastered it, in a day!" Jiraiya said in shock as that kind of progress was scary.
"No halfwit, but he's close." Haku said as she and Naruto cataloged the various types of Rasengan he could use, but they were still unstable 'Light Rasengan.' she thought as with his Drago power he made a Rasengan of light 'Tyranno Rasengan.' she thought as his Tyranno power from both Dino Thunder and MMPR was very volatile being made of fire and spinning at such a rotation without wind assistance 'Dragon Rasengan' she thought as this one most caught her eye as the spirals became condensed and the wind around it was being pushed away and outward as if the Rasengan was roaring 'Lion Rasengan.' she thought as this Rasengan was a bit odd as a symbol for fire appeared in it and it glowed a dangerous red as if it was trying to intimidate all who saw it and finally 'Spirit Rasengan.' she thought as this Rasengan was incredibly dangerous as while it didn't increase the damage it increased the range the Rasengan could damage someone hitting them to the very core of their souls and spirits.
They listened to her explanation and were surprised.
"What about the real elements?" Jiraiya asked her curiously.
"Those have been more unstable." Haku said thinking it was odd and made a certain amount of sense that Naruto could combine his ranger energies, but the elements were much more difficult.
"Our ranger powers become second nature after we use them so much." Shizuka said as it was no surprise to her "But Naruto is trying to get the control to make the untrained elements he has to work, we've done lots of ninjutsu training, but to get control to such a precise degree." she said as the more control someone had the more damage they could do with less effort, but Naruto needed that control to even perform the techniques.
"So how is Tsunade?" Haku asked curiously wondering how the mission was progressing.
"On a drunken fit." Jiraiya said as it was no surprise as she was talked down to by a child, a child that hit close to home for her, he couldn't deny or defend Tsunade as she said his student had thrown his life away and he could only imagine the anger Naruto would have if he knew this woman disrespected the man that died for him.
"Naruto respects all forms of life, our zords are metal, but they are alive in the sense that matters, it doesn't matter people, animals, zords, he won't stand for someone disrespecting them." Shizuka said as that was just the type of man he was.
Jiraiya wondered if Naruto was the person to get Tsunade out of her funk as he would not baby her and spoke her language which was basically angry yelling with a combination of cursing and not beating around the bush.
(few hours later)
"May as well come out." Naruto said as it didn't take much for him to realize Tsunade was here.
Tsunade looked around and saw all the damage he had done to the landscape.
"Let me ask you something and answer honestly." Naruto said to her "Is it worth it being so alone and angry, that letting yourself grieve and move on is such a bad thing?" he asked as while he disliked this woman greatly he saw the look in her eyes, it reminded him a bit of himself
Tsunade was not angry as it was a question she pondered herself and something Shizune pondered "Have you ever lost anyone?" she asked feeling dumb asking someone who lost both his parents that, but knew he didn't know.
"I am an orphan, I lived every day not having a family, I had to make my own." Naruto said as he thought of the people whom he loved so dearly they were his family in all but blood "The Hokage even thinks he has little time left and I'm prepared for that, but it won't hurt any less." he said as the Hokage and him talked about it before he left and he went as far as telling the old man he'd watch after his grandson.
Tsunade felt like she took a hit from herself as while she knew her master was on in years she felt bad as he had been nothing but kind to her and felt a bit ashamed about how lax she was about his future death.
"I live my life despite all the pain, I treasure all the good moments I have, and I fight every day for more happiness and make bonds that last a lifetime." Naruto said as he valued all his friends, and will never give up on the happiness for himself and others.
Tsunade felt their positions were switched, she felt as if she was the child and he was the adult it was a bit humiliating.
Naruto went back to training and Tsunade went back to her hotel.
(Leaf Village the next day)
Iruka was going over the basics with his students as it was the first day back after much of the damage had been cleared.
"They are still cleaning up after those snakes."
"Did you see what those chakra armor ninja did?"
"They were a bit scary."
Iruka knew this would happen, many people were excited about them during the tournament, but afterwards when they battled the summons they got many different reactions from the villagers.
"You bunch of babies, the boss ain't scary!" Konohamaru said loudly.
Iruka held in a laugh as this was Naruto's replacement for this class as Konohamaru was everything Naruto was at this age and to top it off he called Naruto things like 'boss' 'sensei' 'master' and a lot more.
"You saw what he and the others summoned that wasn't natural!" a student called out.
"No shinobi is." Iruka said getting everyone's attention "Naruto Uzumaki, Sasuke Uchiha, Kakashi Hatake, Zabuza Momochi, Haku Yuki, Shizuka Uzumaki, and Hinata Hyuga these are the names of the leaf shinobi that fought against Orochimaru, they wear this headband!" he said loudly lifting his new headband up "They are our comrades, no matter what that is the end of it." he said to them as everyone was now silent, he closed his lesson book "Would you like to see something incredible?" he asked seeing many eager faces.
Konohamaru was curious as he felt something was different about his teacher, he noticed Iruka take out a golden rod key and saw a silver bracelet shine on left wrist.
"Dino Thunder Power Up!" Iruka said loudly.
Everyone watched as Iruka gained black and golden armor.
"You want to see something cool?" Iruka asked as he pulled out his bracio staff and jumped out the window and all the students ran outside "Energy orb!" he said making a circular motion and sent the orb forward destroying a target.
Everyone marveled at that display.
Iruka laughed as he was still amazed by this as when Naruto returned from the wave he told him all about the power he wielded and it amazed him greatly "This is ranger power kids." he said as he was marveled at by his students and had a new found respect.
(with Sasuke)
Sasuke was on the run trailing after his brother 'Why is he after Naruto!?' he thought in anger and annoyance 'Do they know about the morphing grid?' he thought as that'd be bad as he didn't know if there were more evil rangers besides the psychos
(yesterday)
Sasuke was bored out of his mind as he and the others healed decently 'I need to train more.' he thought to himself as he drew his purple wolf knight sword.
'You should perfect your form.' a voice said to him.
Sasuke shot up and morphed into his Violet Thunder armor.
'You're pathetic limiting yourself to ONE ranger armor.' the voice said distastefully 'You can't be the best with that.' he said annoyed by Sasuke.
Sasuke looked all around, but what caught his attention were the purple marks on his skin from his curse mark.
'You haven't gone insane Sasuke Uchiha, but we are stuck together, I am Koragg the Knight Wolf and you have dawned my armor.' Koragg said to him mentally.
Before Sasuke Uchiha could ask more there was a loud explosion and he ran toward it.
When Sasuke arrived he saw both MMPR White Ranger and the SPD Shadow Ranger both brought to their knees, but when he looked to see who had done it, he was shocked to his very core.
'Time for your first lesson.' Koragg said to him whispering something into his ears.
"You!" Sasuke said angrily "Rules just changed Itachi!" he said angrily "Magical Source Mystic Force!" he said transforming into his knight armor.
Itachi was curious seeing both Kakashi and Zabuza do this was one thing but his own brother was surprising.
"I said I'd take you to hell brother and today's the day!" Sasuke said raising his wand "Basilichi Infredo!" he said loudly.
Itachi saw a purple ring form around him and he and Sasuke soon vanished and soon found that they were in a pit 'Orochimaru would feel at home here.' he thought to himself before looking around knowing this was not a genjutsu as even his mangekyo couldn't make something like this, he was brought out of his thoughts as he saw his brother slamming his shield with his sword.
There were many growls of savagery heard approaching them and soon multiple undead looking beasts.
"One way or another one or both of us is gonna die here." Sasuke said as Itachi was a ninja who far surpassed the normal, but endless enemies in a place they presided over was not something even he could beat all on his own.
Itachi saw the beasts approach and attack them, but him even more so.
"Dual Wolf Attack!" Sasuke said as he fired from both his eyes and his shield.
Itachi was able to dodge them but each wolf let out a literal explosion when they made contact with the wall behind him.
(6 hours later)
Itachi was mildly impressed as while not fighting together he and Sasuke were able to hold off the beasts and Sasuke was able to last remarkably long 'I can't keep fighting these creatures, what were those words….Basilichi Infredo.' he thought as if had to take any guess this was what people who first learned to use chakra would refer to as magic, he ran to Sasuke and grabbed his hand as he was about to cast a spell "Oderfni Ihcilisab!" he said grabbing Sasuke's hand tightly as he struggled and before he knew it they soon vanished.
(Purple dimension)
"Damn it!" Sasuke said to himself "Wolf Attack!" he said loudly looking at Itachi, but nothing happened.
Itachi noticed this and decided to activate his sharingan only to see it didn't activate 'This place is disrupting our chakra flow.' he thought as that seemed like the best guess as they sky, trees, and the ground were some form of purple 'This place is perfect for someone I know.' he thought thinking of a certain plant akatsuki, he ducked as while neither having access to their chakra, Sasuke still had his sword as he took a swing for his neck.
(10 minutes later)
"Are you finished?" Itachi asked him curiously as he had Sasuke tied and bound to a tree while he had Sasuke's sword and shield 'The curse mark.' he thought seeing the purple marks spreading wildly, but it was different compared to what he had seen from Orochimaru's lab rats "Don't answer that." he said as he realized who he was talking to "Sasuke this may be my one and only opportunity, to be honest with you." he said to him simply "Our clan was going to commit a coup against the leaf village." he said seeing his shock and saw the look become one of denial "It was the nine tails attack that caused the alienation of our clan from the village." he said to him "But it was originally the second Hokage's paranoia that created the wedge between us." he said well versed in history.
Sasuke listened closely and felt his world now shatter at the implications.
"I became a traitor for my village, to protect it, and to protect you." Itachi said poking his forehead.
Sasuke cried unable to hide his pain at his loss and his anger.
"I heard, you had made a loyal friend." Itachi said as a perk to looking into Naruto he was often able to look into his brother.
Sasuke chuckled as while everything was not making sense, it was Naruto that made the most sense in this awkward and chaotic moment 'Ironic given he is awkwardness and chaos personified.' he thought to himself.
"Sasuke listen, I have faith you can restore our clan to greatness." Itachi said with full confidence "Now that we are done with you trying to kill me." he said seeing it was a bad time to make a joke "Why don't you tell me about this." he said pointing to Sasuke's morpher.
(1 hour later)
Itachi was slightly captivated about the power rangers, and he was proud his brother had proven worthy "Sasuke, you should be wary of that mark, it seems different, but it seems dangerous." he said to him.
Sasuke couldn't deny that as he remembered the threat Haku and Shizuka had given him about what each of his ranger forms represented and the fact Koragg talked to him was less than ideal in helping him think otherwise.
"Sasuke we make our own choices, we can be who we choose to be or people we think we need to be." Itachi said as it was a thin line, but it was a line everyone had to decide.
Sasuke thought about his ranger powers and thought of the people who wore them before him.
They were interrupted when Sasuke's morpher and wand glowed.
Sasuke cast the spell sadly and they were gone.
(Leaf Village)
"The fuck did you go?" Zabuza asked Sasuke seeing him and Itachi reappear.
"How long was I gone?" Sasuke asked him curiously seeing everything was pretty much the same.
"Five fucking minutes." Zabuza said to him wondering why he was so disoriented.
"Our target is not here Kisame." Itachi said his voice much colder than before.
"You alright Itachi I rarely see you blindsided?" Kisame asked him curiously.
Itachi didn't answer but threw a paper bomb "Naruto Uzumaki is our target, farwell little brother, do not get in our way." he said to him as the paper bomb went off.
(Present)
"Naruto sending out an emergency call, pick it up damn it!" Sasuke said as he was not stopping as he was calling on the ranger line, but the downside Naruto could not fix was that it had a range of a 5-mile radius "C'mon pick up anyone!" he said as he kept "Pick up you idiots you're in trouble!" he said over the line "C'mon what do I have?" he asked himself before he felt something move in his pocket and soon pulled out a small blue folding zord "You can find the lion folding zord." he said as the dragon unfolded and nodded.
(next day)
"Dumbass!" Naruto said as he punched Jiraiya in the face "You're a ranger and you let yourself be drugged because you had the hots for some chick!" he said as it was embarassing on many standpoints for ninja and rangers.
"How screwed are we?" Haku asked Shizuka curiously.
"Half poisoned and let's be honest half drunk sannin, three chunin rangers only one with a battleizer, and a crap assistant I'd say we're down right fucked." Shizuka said ignoring the glare Shizune gave her as the assistant "Glare all you want we're screwed as we have a sannin ranger, a douchebag traitor ranger, and possibly Tsunade." she said as Shizune faltered.
"We're going, we can't have Orochimaru regain his fucking arms." Naruto said to them as that was the last thing they needed "Everyone summon your damn rides!" he said to them as they ran outside.
(few minutes later)
"Tell me you have a plan." Shizuka said to Naruto as they arrived at the scene seeing Tsunade in the distance battling Orochimaru, they spotted Kabuto and the sound four.
"Sadly yes, but it's dumb." Naruto said as he went into his Samurai armor "Wait here and wait for my signal." he said to them "Hey bitch!" he said walking in plain view.
"Is he seriously walking up to Orochimaru!" Shizune said in a loud whisper.
"Yep and I'm gonna make a call." Shizuka said looking down at her morpher.
(with Naruto)
"Asshole, pieces of shit." Naruto said looking to Orochimaru then his servants.
"Naruto." Orochimaru said in annoyance remembering being bested by a genin.
"Hello, Naruto." Nokrea said seeing the jinchuriki again.
"Hello, you bitch stain on the morphing grid." Naruto said as that was what the psychos were to everyone, they were cheap knockoffs of real rangers "As much as it has been fun to talk to you, I came here to do one thing and I hope I'm right." he said as he fired rainbow lighting at Tsunade hitting her square in the chest.
"You killed her." Orochimaru said in surprise as that was more something he'd do, her body was unmoving "Guess you are more ninja than ranger." he said as Tsunade's chest was smoking in the literal sense.
"No, I gave her a chance." Naruto said to him "Hey assholes I can tell you're after me, but how about killing fucktard over here first." he said loudly.
Orochimaru was confused till a chill went down his spine and soon he heard an annoying laugh.
"Well, Itachi look at this a traitor and his lackeys and our target are all ripe for the picking." Kisame said as he looked at the group.
"Yeah I heard you dicks were coming." Naruto said as Sasuke got a hold of him on the ride over here "Anyway." he said as he dashed to Tsunade and placed his hand on her and glowed brightly.
Itachi saw this and ran to her as well and grabbed hold of Naruto and a massive explosion of red and green occurred.
As the smoke cleared there stood Naruto still in his Samurai armor, but to their shock so was Tsunade in a green version of Naruto's, but the most surprising was the red one Itachi was wearing.
"We're so screwed." Jiraiya said as Itachi having ranger powers was not ideal.
Orochimaru had the same sentiments as he looked at the Sound Four and had them grow.
"Listen I don't have time to fill you in, but we need to do something crazy, catch!" Naruto said as he tossed Tsunade a small green folding zord and raised his samuraizer and wrote the kanji for 'live' and fired it at Orochimaru "Fuck you!" he said to him "Megamode power!" he said firing the kanji at Tsunade's folding zord and then at his "Sasuke!" he yelled out.
"I'm here!" Sasuke said in his blue Samurai armor "Please tell me you have pink and yellow?" he said as Naruto tossed him pink.
They both enlarged both zords and combined them.
Tsunade was not expecting today's events to happen, first, she had decided to kill her old teammate and second, she was sure she was dead momentarily, and now she was in a giant robot.
"What took you so long to get here, I thought I was gonna have to talk out my ass." Naruto said to him as he thought Sasuke was closer.
"Listen you would not believe what has happened since you left." Sasuke said to him promising to fill him in later.
The zord stood ready its shield at the ready for battle as Nokrea and Jirobo in the monster giant psycho forms.
"Hey, assholes!" Jirobo said punching the Samurai Zord's shield away.
"We are a bit outnumbered." Tsunade said not understanding any of this but knew there was a strength in numbers.
They were interrupted when the megazord was stabbed from behind by Nokrea.
"This was your plan?" Nokrea asked in amusement as she forced the Samurai Megazord to its knees "A barely functioning megazord without all the pilots, some dumbass new recruit, these people are too damn green." she said to him.
"Pretty much." Naruto said as they were extremely screwed "Wait where is the two-headed one and spider dumbass?" he asked looking around until he spotted the V-Rex battling said idiots.
"How is it we are getting our asses kicked yet he is fresh as a daisy?" Tsunade asked them curiously.
"Well to be honest it's harder to operate a megazord while missing two of its pilots and not gonna lie this is our first time using this zord." Naruto said to her as before it was just him and Sasuke and without Tsunade, this wouldn't have even been an option.
"Well Naruto thank you for reviving me, but it's time to end you." Nokrea said raising her free hand and was about to stab it again, but was blasted in her eyes.
"I am so fucking in love right now!" Shizuka said as she was literally riding the wind using the artillery to the Red Ninja Storm Battleizer, she couldn't combine with it, but she could ride it, and she immediately began shooting the monster psychos attacking the Samurai megazord.
"Let me crush her!" Jirobo said loudly swinging his giant fists around.
(with Itachi)
"Itachi this thing is the most savage thing I have ever been in!" Kisame said as Itachi's zord bit into the yellow monster's neck.
Itachi had to agree and while wearing the mask he actually smiled.
(With Orochimaru)
Orochimaru was not in a good mood as while his ranger powers were helping to fight, Jiraiya and Haku were not going well, Jiraiya could match him in tai jutsu and the fact his arms still didn't work didn't make it possible for him to use ninjutsu in the traditional sense, and the fact Haku was keeping her distance and using her ice mirrors, he couldn't touch her while she blasted him with a flurry of ice and snow.
"You know I hate that you're wearing that color." Haku said to Orochimaru.
"You dislike the color I wear?" Orochimaru asked as people hated him for many reasons, but that was a new one.
"The psychos are cheap knockoffs of Mighty Morphin, the fact you a man so vile think you can wear the color of a man that is a legend is insulting not only to him but to Naruto as well." Haku said as she knew how much Naruto saw Tommy Oliver as a hero, which the man was, even to her ranger team as the Mystic Mother in texts was once the enemy, but she revered Tommy Oliver as a genuine hero.
"Maybe you're right, after I reclaim my arms, I'll come for Naruto, maybe steal his body and drain the morphing grid for all it's power, I will obtain all ranger powers!" Orochimaru said as with the Sharingan and the morphing grid, he'd be a god.
"You have to get through all of us first." Jiraiya said sending a rasengan into his stomach 'Shit it was too weak!' he thought as the drug was still in his sytem.
(with Kabuto)
"This is just sad." Kabuto said as Shizune was on the ground covered in blood "I mean, everyone has a strong opponent and all I have is the leftovers." he said as she tried poison gas and needles, but thanks to his armor he was well protected "Must be humiliating, to be the only one here not to be considered worthy of such amazing powers, you're just average." he said as besides Kisame, she was the only person here that didn't have a Morpher or anything remotely special about her.
Shizune glared at him able to tell behind that mask he had a smug smile.
(with Shizuka)
"Naruto I don't have much time these idiots are starting to wise up, I need some heavy artillery!" Shizuka said over the comms.
(with Naruto)
"I have an idea, you have the beetle disc?" Naruto asked Sasuke seeing him lift an orange disc "Tsunade check your belt." he said as she was a healer and that was one of the abilities of the swordfish zord, to his luck she actually had it.
"Do we use the same kanji that you used to make these things grow?" Tsunade asked getting a nod.
"Samurai Battlewing!" they all said together the spirits of the beetle, swordfish, and tiger going to the Red Ninja Storm Battleizer artillery, seeing it expand into the Samurai Battlewing.
(with Shizuka)
"Now this is ranger power!" Shizuka said to them "Time to combine!" she said loudly.
"Combine Samurai Battlewing Megazord!" they all said as Shizuka appeared in the cockpit taking the yellow ranger slot.
The Battlewing Megazord charged at Jirobo as took to the sky.
"The real power rangers send their regards!" Naruto said as they fired and Jirobo exploded.
(with Orochimaru)
'This does not bode well.' Orochimaru thought seeing Itachi had finished his blue and yellow psychos and with Jirobo now dead, he was missing a majority of his psycho rangers.
They giants and rangers in zords all shrank and disengaged.
"Listen you assholes, how about we team up and butcher this walking talking corpse?" Naruto asked Itachi and Kisame "We can have an old school fashioned sword fight." he said holding up the fire smasher.
"I like this kid Itachi." Kisame said able to respect people like Naruto "To bad I'll have to chop you to pieces." he said as that was their assignment.
"So that's a no?" Sasuke asked them getting a short nod from his brother.
"Quantum Defender Blaster!" Itachi said summoning his weapon and fired at Orochimaru "I should have ended your life years ago, Amatarasu." he said but as he did he clutched his skull as fire began to be launched everywhere.
"You dumbass you can use ranger and chakra together!" Haku said as there were certain limits to what they could do, it was why Naruto had such a hard time combining his ranger powers with his rasengan, it took time to adjust both energies to each other.
"Kabuto Nokrea, retrieve the morphers!" Orochimaru said as the black flames were spreading and he didn't want to lose a valuable resource.
"Guys stop them!" Naruto said as he and Orochimaru dashed for the blue morpher.
Haku raced to the black morpher, but stopped as Kabuto held a chakra blade to Shizune's throat 'Damn it.' she thought to herself as it was a silent message "Release her and I will give it to you." she said as she didn't have much of a choice but to comply as she was low on chakra.
Kabuto tossed her Shizune and she tossed him the black morpher.
"I'll cut your throat bitch." Nokrea said as she had her claws at Shizuka's throat while she had her ninja sword at her throat.
"I am not letting you take this morpher." Shizuka said as Orochimaru getting even one of these was not ideal, getting all of them was a terrible situation, she was silenced when she was silenced when she was stabbed in the side.
"Unlike the other psychos I have two weapons slut." Nokrea said pulling the sword out and Shizuka fell.
"You're not getting this morpher snake!" Naruto said as he and Orochimaru had their hands on the blue morpher "Aren't your hands bleeding bitch?" he asked smugly knowing his arms that had to be in pain.
"I will not lose this power to you child!" Orochimaru said angrily.
Naruto had to admit for half dead arms he held on tightly, he saw black flames getting near them and slammed Orochimaru's arm into them "If you don't let go and demorph you won't have an arm to bitch about!" he said loudly seeing Orochimaru yell in agony.
"Damn you!" Orochimaru said as he let go and demorphed the flames disappearing not having melted through his armor in time to reach his skin.
"Ok screw this!" Naruto said as the black flames and the enemies around them was not fun 'Wait…fun!' he thought to himself as he began drawing kanji "Symbol power fun!" he said drawing the kanji five time over and launched it in multiple directions "Shizuka do it!" he said loudly.
"Ninja shadow battle!" Shizuka called out weakly as she and the others vanished behind see-through doors vanishing from the battlefield.
(1 hour later)
"That could've been better." Jiraiya said as he had explained to Tsunade about the rangers and other info to bring her up to date.
"Oh really?" Naruto asked sarcastically "We lost two psycho morphers, Orochimaru is still alive, and oh Itachi Uchiha a wanted man has a morpher to the fucking Time Force and has a zord which can be become a megazord and oh he's part of a terrorist organization." he said simply.
"There are some pros Naruto." Sasuke said to him "A lot of shit happened but we gained more while Orochimaru lost three of his henchmen and he lost a psycho morpher, the only bad thing is Itachi does have a morpher." he said as he was going to fill Naruto in later about Itachi's status.
"We got another ranger today so that's a plus." Naruto said as the Samurai megazord was now an option along with the Battlewing through Shizuka.
"Yeah can I ask why you blasted me earlier, it felt like you killed me?" Tsunade asked him curiously.
"You weren't dead, not in the traditional sense anyway, remember when we first made contact in that little fight we had and I zapped you ass?" Naruto asked getting an irritated nod "I felt you were worthy of a power, but the power didn't deem you worthy, plus your body was a little on the rocks due to that seal." he said pointing to her diamond on her forehead "I charged it full of morphing energy, your body should be healing itself, hell take off the henge." he said to her.
Tsunade wasn't sure if she hated him or not, but complied, but what everyone saw shocked them to their core.
"Why is she 16?" Haku asked curiously wondering how Tsunade a woman with decades of battle looked like a child.
"I must've put to much morphing energy in her or her seal compensated with the change of energy healing her allowing her to become younger in her prime." Naruto said not expecting this outcome.
Tsunade was having the time of her life seeing she was so young and no longer suffering the effects of her seal.
"Well this might be an issue we need a Hokage, not a teenager." Jiraiya said as this'd be bad "And to top it off this is much worse, you are a teenager." he said to Tsunade.
"Yeah?" Tsunade said not catching on.
"Tsunade you are a teenager." Jiraiya said stretching that out "And the last Senju." he said to her thinking that this was an Uzumaki trait.
"Oh shit I'm fertile again." Tsunade said in realization.
"Can't she be under the Uzumaki clan protection like me?" Haku asked as Tsunade had Uzumaki ancestry, she was more entitled to it
"She's the last member of a clan, the founding clan like the Uchiha and Uzumaki, she can't and to top it off she's a veteran shinobi." Sasuke said to her as while genetics were a main attribute to restoring a clan they often cared for, to have a powerful shinobi was often the icing on tip of that.
"There is one option." Naruto said to them "What if Tsunade Senju died?" he asked them seeing the looks he was getting "Orochimaru doesn't know what I did to you, we can use that, maybe say Tsunade died, but her daughter still lives." he said to them.
"It's not the worst idea." Shizuka said to them "It's probably our best bet, she's young plus paints less targets on our asses." she said as it'd be better than nothing.
"We still have a problem though we need a new Hokage." Jiraiya pointed out to them.
"Well here's an idea why don't you fucking do it." Tsunade said to him.
"I have a spy network." Jiraiya said to her.
"Yes yes, your whore houses and prostitutes are very resourceful." Tsunade said to him sarcastically.
"What about Kakashi?" Naruto asked them "He was trained by the previous Hokage, he's well known and respected." he said to them.
"That's probably our only choice now." Jiraiya said to them.
"Kinda ironic given who wore his suit before him." Shizuka said as the Shadow Ranger was the leader of an entire police force.
"Let's just go home, we'll take the Battlewing." Naruto said as it was easier that way.
"Dibs on driving." Tsunade said wanting to do some actual driving especially given they were flying.
(1 hour later)
"You did a good job restoring to this place." Tsunade said relaxing in the Uzumaki compound.
"His clones do most of the work." Hiruzen said as he sipped some tea while Tsunade drank saki "Still can't believe you are 16 again." he said as it was an oddity.
"Hey, I ain't complaining." Tsunade said to him.
"And be glad I can make as real records as possible." Naruto said to her as he made her records and made it so the third was in constant contact with her "I need you to sign off on a few things." he said to Hiruzen as he made the dates back to when he was Hokage as Kakashi was taking over.
Tsunade examined the records and read them 'Looks good.' she thought to herself as she was a chunin again 'Same name, but I'm a Jr now.' she thought finding that a bit funny.
"We still need to give you a grave any requests?" Naruto asked as it was merely going to be a false grave only the Hokage and rangers knew about.
"Pour saki on it." Tsunade said to him.
"C'mon, you need training." Naruto said to her tossing her a wooden sword "You're a ranger now and we have a standard, plus your main weapon is a spear." he said to her.
Tsunade smiled as her father and she never gained her grandfather's wood style, to have a power over nature was very cool in her opinion.
"You have another ranger power Tsunade." Naruto said not mentioning during the battle thinking it be bad if he had to explain it to her during battle "Luckily for you it's the same color, you are the Mystic Force Green and tada power over nature." he said to her "I told Haku and she's excited that we have more on our team." he said to her as it was just her and him for Mystic Force.
Tsunade was exstatic to learn more about her power.
"C'mon lets go train." Naruto said to her as they began training.
(with Kakashi)
Kakashi really wanted to hit Naruto as his former student screwed him over by making him a candidate for Hokage, he was glad Tsunade at least lent him Shizune, he was looking into the records and saw everything seemed in order for 'Tsunade Jr', he heard a knock at the door and saw the elders 'These idiots.' he thought to himself.
Kakashi did the classic verbal conversation dealing with their pleasantries and other nonsense they thought that made them human, then it got down to the main issue.
"Word has spread about the Leaf's chakra armor with the 'select' ninja, Naruto Uzumaki has given." Koharu said to him.
"And as you know I AM one." Kakashi said to them.
"And your performance has increased exponentially, imagine what it can do for our shinobi forces if each one had a set of armor." Homura said to him.
"Well sadly it takes Naruto an exponential amount of time and effort." Kakashi said to them "And the list of shinobi worthy to be worth his time is incredibly short and to top it off, he doesn't have to do anything as we can not force him into this as it does not fall into shinobi duties and belongs to the Uzumaki clan." he said as there were clan and shinobi laws protecting Naruto.
The elders could not refute his claims as those were good points.
"And one more thing." Kakashi said summoning the Shadow Saber and stabbed it upward to the ceiling, blood began to drip down and soon someone fell through the ceiling "I will be watching Root carefully, and given the fact that this shinobi belongs to Root that gives me clause to investigate the organization and Danzo since he is not on the preapproved security team, Anbu!" he said calling out to them as they took the shinobi he had just stabbed.
Both elders seemed very nervous given what just happened.
"And given the fact that you two absent-minded puppets have close ties to Root I can investigate you as well and any crimes that connect you, I will have you put in the interrogation room with Anko Mitarashi, and I don't have to tell you how much she'd love to have you there." Kakashi said to them seeing they excused themselves and left "How was that?" he asked Hiruzen who soon revealed himself.
"Excellent I have wanted to shut them up for years, well played on using their own connections and mistakes against them." Hiruzen said to him as it was a good way to shut them up.
"Best for them to know I am well-read and can't be fucked with." Kakashi said as he had seen the battle of politics his sensei often had to do and he knew that most politicians often fell due to people of lesser power and in more comfortable spots trying to pull more strings and twist people's arms.
"How is Naruto?" Hiruzen asked him curiously.
"Like his parents, you can see it even now, he's growing up." Kakashi said proudly "He mastered the Rasengan in three days and is wearing Tsunade's necklace." he said as Hiruzen's face seemed both surprised and knowing as if he knew Naruto would do well with the necklace.
(with Itachi)
Itachi was piecing together what he could about his morpher and his ranger powers when he learned his blaster doubled as a sword Kisame demanded a spar.
(Naruto's seal)
The Dragonzord was pleased as Naruto was going far in his way of being a ranger and a ninja, he can safely say he was proud of him and so would Tommy.
