Genjutsu Legend Chapter 12

Neji had never been so amused his entire life, the girl from the family that condemned him and his family his whole life was trying her best to kill him. His younger cousin was always a weakling that was garbage compared to himselfm and she was just wasting her strength trying to kill him with her level of power. Neji forced down a laugh as Hinata tried to strike his chest with her Juken, with a simple side step he dodged her attack entirely and jumped back to create some distance.

Neji glared at Hinata as he got into a combat stance. "What are you doing Hinata-sama?!" he cried as he pretended to look tensed.

Hinata glared at her cousin as tears flowed out of her eyes. "You killed Naruto-kun!" cried the girl as her voice broke a little bit because of her crying. Before the back Hyuga heiress attacked Neji again, Sasuke caught her arm and pulled her back, the girl looked at her teammate vilently as she trued to shake free from his grip. "Let go of me!"

Sasuke growled and locked her arm behind her back. "Stop this Hinata...why the hell would Neji kill Naruto!" asked the Uchiha as he shook his head.

Hinata sobbed again as she glared back at Neji. "He killed Naruto-kun to hide his secret from the village!" accused the girl as she shook in Sasuke's arms. Sasuke grunted as the girl stomped hard his feet and elbowed his midsection, the Uchiha accidentally released the girl quickly rushed towards Neji again and attacked him with her Juken. But before Hinata could even strike her palm, Neji appeared behind Hinata and chopped her neck with his hand, knocking the girl out instantly.

Neji smirked as Sasuke sighed and rubbed his temples. "You could've done that sooner you know...she was really annoying me." mumbled the Uchiha as Neji rolled his eyes at his friend.

Tenten walked up to her boyfriend and wrapped her arms around his. "Neji-kun, what should we do with Hinata-chan...?" asked the girl as she looked at the fallen girl with worry in her eyes.

The Hyuga genius smirked and looked over at Sasuke. "I believe that it is Sasuke's job to deliver her into the tower and tell the administration about the death of Uzumaki-taicho." replied the young man as he saw Sasuke's eyebrow twitch in annoyance.

The Uchiha mumbled as he lifted the unconscious girl over his shoulder and walked towards the entrance of the tower. "I hate you Neji...I have to take this useless lump everywhere and you just walk around with you girlfriend."

Neji smirked as he pulled Tenten closer to him around the waist. "Oh be quiet Sasuke, the next month would be much more tedious for me than you..."

Neji had told Tenten about his loyalty to Naruto, the genius wanted to bring the girl along with him when their plan was over, so he got permission from Naruto and told Tenten his secrets. The girl was shocked when he told her and avoided him for the next few days, and he had to moniter her constantly in case she told the village higher-ups about them...but after a few days the girl chose him over Konoha.

The Hyuga and his girl followed Sasuke along with the illusion Lee, into the tower...all off them had sad and regretful expression on his face, three of them fake, one of them real.

Naruto laid on his bed with a smile on his face, for the last two hours he had been making love to two of his girls, and it made his accomplished day even better. The Uzumaki was surprised that in the last half a year his view would change more than he would have expected, a few months ago he would have not thought about his girls as actually lovers, instead he would have consider them tokens and pawns. Naruto made it a point to himself that he would never feel satisfied or love as he thought those feelings were mere restraints of his potential, but lately he had found himself contradicting his own phliosophy, as his feelings and desire to protect them gave him more power.

Naruto smirked when he saw Kurenai lick her way up from his chest to his neck. "What are you thinking about Naru-kun?" asked the young woman as she suckled on his lower lips.

Naruto kissed her back and ran his fingers through her lucious hair. "Just think about my beautiful girls..." answered the man as he pulled Kurenai close to his right side and enjoyed the warmth she provided.

Anko curled up against his left side and giggled. "Are you still horny Naru-koi, we had many rounds already." said the purple haired beauty as she kissed her lover's chest.

The Uzumaki chuckled and pulled both his girls closer to him. "How are you doing Anko-chan...do you feel any different after the seal is gone?" asked the man as he looked into her light purple eyes.

Anko smiled and nodded. "That seal had been absorbing my chakra everday, so now that it's gone my chakra feels less restrained, and the stinging sensation around my neck is also gone."

Naruto nodded with a smile as Kurenai crawled on top of their lover and winked at her. "Well, I did give you a hicky a few minutes ago...but that must feel better right?" asked the red eyed beauty to her surrogate sister.

Anko smiled and kissed Kurenai deeply, both women moaned erotically as their tongues massaged each other, Anko pulled back while she sucked on Kurenai's lower lips. "Of couse it felt good Kure-chan..." whispered Anko close to the other beauty.

Naruto smirked at his two lovers and spanked them both on the ass, making both of the cry out a little from pain and pleasure from their sensative pussies. "Are you naughty girls ignoring me..." asked the man smiling.

Anko pouted at her man, "Of course not Naru-koi..." said the woman as she looked at Kurenai, who was also pouting at Naruto.

Kurenai licked Naruto's nipples and lightly nipped her way up his body, she reached his chin, lips, cheeks, eyes and forehead. "I can never ignore you Naru-kun..." said the woman as she rubbed her large breasts on Naruto's face.

Anko crawled backwards to the end of the bed and aligned Naruto's hardened penis against Kurenai's pussy, she licked both her lovers for a few seconds before she pushed Naruto inside of Kurenai. Anko smirked as the other woman moaned out loudly as her sensative pussy was fucked again, the snake mistress kissed the connect parts of Naruto and Kurenai as her fingers went in and out of her own pussy.

Naruto grunted as he sucked on Kurenai's nipples and fucked her pussy, he separated himself before he looked over at his second lover. "Anko-chan...come over here..." asked the man.

Anko smirked as she sexily crawled over to her lover and sat on his face. "Can I sit here Naruto-kun?" Naruto didn't even answer, his face dashed against her pussy and his tongue licked her insides thoroughly and swiftly. Anko moaned she she held hands with Kurenai and used her friend for support, the two women looked into each other's eyes and kissed each other deeply.

Kurenai pulled back a little. "I love you Anko-chan..." she mumbled against the other woman's lips.

Anko smiled against the kiss. "I love you too Kure-chan." she said, as Naruto smiled under the two women.

It was surprising for the Sandaime Hokage, that the death of someone like Uzumaki Naruto would bring so much sadness to the people around him, the atmostphere at the Chunin exam tower was sombre and eerie, everybody had sullen expressions on their faces. Despite being a scap-goat and outcast his whole life, Naruto's bright outlook and general kind attitude had warmed it's way into many people's hearts, such as all the friends he made in the academy.

Many of the contestants in the Chunin exams were once the classmates of Uzumaki Naruto, and their memory of the young man was a bright and young soul that had a very optimistic outlook of life. They all remember a smiling, vibrant, young man that always went out of his way to help others...that stuck up for people no matter what would happened to himself...that never let his hard life drag him down. Even some of the academy instructors were changed by the young man, their orginal grim and sour attitude towards the boy had changed dramatically since they met him...

Out of all his friends, the rookies of the current generation were the closest to the Uzumaki, especially the Hyuga heiress that had been rendered catatonic after the death of her teammate. Similar to the Hyuga girl, Yamanaka Ino, and Haruno Sakura were also living in anguish ever since the death of the man they admired. Naruto was one of the nicest and kindest person they had ever known, and neither of the expected something so tragic happen to the man...his death really showed the young Kunoichi the fragility of the lives of Shinobi.

The young men such as Inuzuka Kiba, Akimichi Chouji, and Shikamaru Nara were each huddled in a corner of an isolated area, trying to supress their sadness and anger towards whoever killed their friend. Even the ferral Inuzuka heir couldn't help put let loose a lone tear at the lost of one of his best friends, Naruto had been like an older brother of a sort to the young man, as Kiba's dad had died when the boy was very young, Naruto was one of the few older male companions he knew. The Uzumaki might have been bad at his Ninja arts, but he was a role model when it came to morrals and ethics, Naruto was an honorable Shinobi that had the respect of all his classmates.

Kiba, Shikamaru and Chouji only regretted all the times they had ignored or mocked the older Genin about his strength...they were praying in their hearts that their perished friend would forgive them for all the wrongs that they committed to him...

"How are you doing Shikamaru...?" asked Asuma as he knelt down beside his students. "Chouji..."

The lazy boy had a sombre expression on his face that did not suit his apatheic personality, his face was obviously in pain as tears tried to escape his eyes. "Naruto shouldn't have died...such a kind person shouldn't have died like that." mumbled the Nara as he looked down at the ground.

Asuma sighed and patted his student's back sympathetically...as an experienced Jounin the Sarutobi knew a lot about losing friends on the battlefield. "The pain will sooth in time...just remember that Naruto-kun would not have wanted you to mourn his death with such anguish..." said the bearded man.

Chouji sniffed and rubbed his eyes with his sleeve. "Naruto was always a happy person...he always had a smile on his face." whispered the bulky young man with a strained voice. "I can still see him practicing his caligraphy on the ground...trying to remind the others around him to be careful...he hated it whenever someone stepped on his words..." Asuma nodded and closed his eyes as well, he wasn't close to the boy but he heard from his father that Naruto was truly a remarkable young man.

Kiba stood from were he sat and punched the wall behind him in anger, his face was contorted in pain as tears escaped his eyes, Akamaru was whimpering beside his master, also effected by the sombre atmostphere.

"He should not have become a Shinobi..." mumbled Kiba softy.

Shikamaru looked up at his friend. "What...?" asked the normally lazy boy.

The Inuzuka turned to face Shikamaru and stomped his foot onto the ground angrily. "Why the fuck did Naruto become a Shinobi, he is obviously not strong enough..." cried the young man as he leaned back against the wall. "A guy like him is too kind and modest to be a Shinobi...he should've become a scholar or a doctor...that way he wouldn't have..." trailed off Kiba as he slumped down on the ground again. Chouji and Shikamaru bowed their heads deeper to hide their tears...as much as they would like to deny Kiba's claims, they knew he was correct, Naruto should have went the academic trail...

Asuma sighed and got up to his feet, "Naruto-kun's funeral will be today next week...make sure to be there on time..." said the man before he left the boys alone.

Off from a distance, Manami looked on at the Konoha Shinobi and was confused at their sadness. She had lost many teammates during missions and she had not once felt sadness over their demise, they only died because they were weak and couldn't defend themselves. The suna beauty looked into the eyes of the men and women crying over the death of their friend...she just couldn't logically explain to herself why they would be sad in the first place.

Manami looked over at the side of the tower that Uzumaki Naruto was killed, the man she met a few days ago had interested her and she had wanted to find out more about him, not only did he share similar emotionless eyes with her, he also made her feel very peculiar in her heart whenever he looked at her...

Temari walked over to her younger sister. "Do you know who killed that guy Manami-chan?" asked the older girl as she looked at the greiving Konoha Shinobi.

The red haired beauty shook her head silently. "I have no idea of what happened..." muttered the girl without looking at her sister.

Temari monitered her sister's expresssion as she memtioned Uzumaki Naruto, the older Suna girl knew that her sister was interested in the blonde man, and that alone was very surprising for her. Now that the man was dead, she wondered if her sister would feel anything different or peculiar. Temari sighed as she walked away from Manami, it would be better for them now that the man is dead, they need Manami to be in her most calm and relaxed condition until the invasion.

Baki looked at his oldest student seriously. "Temari...the preliminaries will start soon." said the man as he gathered his team and led them over to the battle arena.

The Sandaime held an emergency meeting with all the Clan Heads and the Shinobi Council, and all the attending members raced to the conference from in record time. Everyone at the meeting were shocked at the sudden death of the Junchuriki, and were all anxious to know what happened to the Kyuubi. Since the young man had died inside the village, if the Kyuubi were to suddenly manifest in the middle of Konoha, it could be the end for them.

Koharu stood from her desk and looked at Sarutobi. "Hokage-sama, what is the situation of the junchuriki's body?" asked the old lady quickly.

The elder Hokage sighed and puffed on his pipe. "The body is still maintained...but the lethal wound delivered to Naruto is located on his stomach where the his seal is...so there is a possibility that the seal had been altered."

Yamanaka Inoichi cleared his throat to get the attention of the room. "What is the seal suppose to do if the Junchuriki had perished?" asked the man seriously as his two old teammates sat next to him with sombre expressions on their faces.

Sarutobi leaned back on his chair. "The Yondaime's seal was designed to kill the beast's conscious when the Junchuriki is dead...there is no way to kill a Bijuu, but if it's conscious is destroyed, it would take it a while before it could regenerate." said the man.

Danzo looked at his oldest friend with his one eye. "I believe that the body of Uzumaki should still be able to hold the beast for a few more days until the chakra should start to leak...but once the beast regenerates, where would it re-appear."

Sarutobi sighed and shook his head. "I really have no idea...the position could be completely random."

Danzo sighed and closed his eye. "Where would the body be stored...has it been inspected by the medics yet?" asked the old war hawk.

The elderly Hokage nodded. "Yes, I have had almost all the medics in the hospital look over Naruto's body, and it appears that the beast is still inside him...but I have yet to decided on a place to hold the body."

Inuzuka Tsume looked at the Hokage from the corner of her eyes. "Hokage-sama...do we know who was it that killed Naruto?" asked the woman with a sad voice, she was the best friend of Uzumaki Kushina and she had always felt guilty about abandoning her friend's son...and now that Naruto is dead she feels even more guilty.

Sarutobi shook his head. "No...the blade that stabbed Naruto was his own Zanpakuto...which split into pieces after we took the body down."

Danzo sighed and leaned onto his part of the table. "We should't make too much of Uzumaki Naruto's death, we do not want the other villages to know that our Junchuriki is dead...that could to very wrong for Konoha..." advised the old man as he inwardly smirked.

The Hokage nodded. "Yes...we can't afford to let the other villages know, so this means we have to hide the fact of Naruto's death to the villagers...they would undoubtedly celebrate and attract the attention of the foreign Shinobi..." said the Hokage shamefully as his eyes travelled slightly to the picture of the Yondaime Hokage...some of the other members and Clan Heads saw what the Hokage was looking at and also felt guilty themselves...they all had failed Minato and Kushina...

In the busy night lights of Konoha, many people were filing into the many bars around the village, mostly tourists and Shinobi celebrating the start of the Chunin exams. Some of the Konoha Jounin invited some of the foreign Jounin to have a drink after the nerve-wrecking start of the exams, and most people were having a great time...

The Copy Ninja Hataka Kakashi sat silently in front of his fifth sake bottle, even with his mask on, one would be able to see thehint of red on his cheeks. The man's eyes were strained as his fists were tightened and shaking...he had failed his Sensei once again by letting Naruto die. Throughout his whole life everyone close to him had died, and he couldn't protect any one of their legacies...he had failed his father, his sensei, his teammates...and himself.

"Kakashi..." said Gai from behind his best friend and placed his hand in his shoulder. "How long have you been here?"

The silver haired man sighed and downed another glass. "I don't know...a couple of hours." said the man with his sake filled breath.

Gai closed his eyes sombrely and sat down next to the masked Jounin. "The preliminaries are over...Sasuke advanced to the next round, but Sakura and Ino tied each other, so neither of them advanced." said the Taijutsu master as he poured himself a drink. "Hinata didn't even get the chance to compete...she was taken home by her father..."

Kakashi nodded absentmindedly. "Okay..." muttered the man as he poured himself another glass.

Gai looked at his best friend and frowned, there was no way he could understand what the Masked Jounin was feeling as he had not lost as much people as his friend, but he could tell that the death of Naruto would cause some permanent damage to Kakashi.

"Lee-kun lost...that Suna girl Manami beated him up quite badly...he's currently sleeping in the hospital." said Gai as he sipped in his own glass. "But the medics told me that he would be fine after a little while."

Kakashi didn't reply at all and allowed himself to sit in silence with his friend drinking beside him, the drone of the people around them was drowned out as the intense emotions inside the man's head lingered around his mind. The masked jounin was one of the first one on sight once he had heard of Naruto's death, and even without his Sharingan, he would always remember the sight of his student stabbed against the wall of the tower with his own blade.

'HAHAHA, HAVE YOU SEEN THE DEMON LATELY!?" cried a drunk man from behind Kakashi and Gai to a group of his friends, he was obviously drunk as his face was red as a tomato and his footing was way out of control.

One of the man's friends chuckled and nodded. "Yeah I did, I saw him train with some Hyuga girl...both pathetic if you asked me." said the man, making his other friends laugh.

Gai cursed the men behind them as he saw Kakashi break his glass with his clenched fist...the Taijutsu master looked at the group through the corner of his eyes and sighed, 'These guys are going to die soon if they don't shut up...'

"Hahaha, you know, I throw a rock at the demon everytime I see him...I don't know why some people stopped hating him...can't they see that he should just di-". The man would have continued if his jaw was not suddenly shattered by a devastating punch. The group of drunkards were shocked when they saw a masked Jounin knock several teeth out of their friend's mouth as blood splattered on their table. Before the could even react, the Jounin lifted the bleeding man and threw him into the air, then Kakashi kicked the man in the chest, making the man crash into the wall, causing spider cracks along impact.

Kakashi flared his chakra to the highest level and glared at the men at the table, his killer intent was so potent that even the other Jounin inside the bar was petrified. "How dare you say that about my student!" cried the Jounin as he destroyed the table with a punch. The men tried to scatter away from Kakashi but they couldn't even move because of the incredible pressure forced upon them, the Jounin lifted the closest one to him and threw him violently at another wall.

"You're dead!" cried Kakashi as kicked a man on the ground into the same wall. "You fuckin scum!" Kakashi punched the two people embedded in the wall, causing the wall to crash down under his strength and the two men to be buried under the debris. Kakashi growled at the remaining three men on the floor and was about to continue, but he was stopped by Gai by his shoulder. Kakashi glared at his friend and channel lightning chakra around his body.

"Let go of me Gai..." muttered Kakashi with a low voice.

The Taijutsu maintained his grasp and endured the lightning chakra. "Stop this Kakashi...these men are going to die soon." said the man as he looked at the fallen men.

Kakashi scoffed and pushed Gai away abruptly. "That is the point my friend..." said Kakashi as he channled lightning chakra to his hand.

Gai's eyes widened as he felt some Shinobi behind them back away, even if the others were Jounin class Shinobi, they have all heard about how powerful Hatake Kakashi is. "Kakashi! This is crazy...stop this now!" cried the man as he focused his own chakra.

Kakashi gripped his hand. "Raikiri!" cried the man as lightning surged from his hand, destroying his surroundings completely.

Gai quickly dashed behind Kakashi and locked the man's arms with his own. "Calm down Kakashi!" exclaimed Gai as he forced his knee onto Kakashi's back.

Kakashi didn't reply, but increased his chakra flow along his arm, his chakra surged even more and even Gai was beginning to lose his strength. "Damn it!" cursed the man as he felt his friend over power him. Gai was about to activate his first gate, but before it was needed, Asuma appeared beside him and grabbed Kakashi's other side.

The Sarutobi along with Gai was enough to pull the masked Jounin back, and the former punched Kakashi in the face right as they restrained him, knocking the man to the ground. "What the hell are you doing Kakashi!" cried the man as he glared at his life long friend. "Do you think Naruto would want you to behave like this!?"

Gai sighed and knelt down beside Kakashi. "I can't say I know how you feel Kakashi, but you can't act like this..." whispered the Taijutsu master as he patted his friend's shoulder. "We can't let anybody know of what happened now...we have to stall it for a while."

Kakashi brushed off Gai's hand and turned away. "I need some time alone..." whispered Kakashi softy to his friends as he left via Shunshin.

Gai sighed as he turned to Asuma. "Thank you for helping me Asuma..." said the man he looked around at the destruction.

The Sarutobi lit his smoke and rubbed the back of his head. "No problem Gai...we are both Kakashi's friend." muttered the man exhaustedly. "Now lets get these dumbasses to the hospital."

Gai grunted as he lifted one of the men over his shoulder. "I don't think these guys would ever walk again..."

Asuma nodded apolegetically to the barkeeper as they walked out, the owner didn't dare say anything to some of the most powerful Jounin the Konoha, they would just go to their insurance company. Asuma sighed as he adjusted the bodies on his shoulders. "These guys are luckly they are still alive...if we weren't there they would all have a hole where their heart use to be..."

Uchiha Sasuke sighed as he followed his leader and friends of the meeting point. "I really hate that Yoroi Akadō guy..." muttered the young man as he tried to focus his chakra better after his fight with the chakra abosrber.

Neji smirked. "You should have just ended the fight earlier, you could have turned that weakling inside out easily." said the Hyuga as he stuck his hands inside his pocket.

The Uchiha nodded and sighed. "I know...but I needed to hide my strength from most people in the arena." replied the young man as he rubbed his sore arms.

Naruto smiled to himself as he tuned his subordinates out, his plan was finally coming to a start after so many years. With the start of the Chunin exams Naruto knew that it was the perfect time of his fake death, as the village administration would hide his death from everyone in the village. If the villagers knew of his death they would undoubtedly would celebrate and that would alert the foreign Ninja about the sudden lost of an outcast. The would not take long for the foreign Ninja to find out that Konoha's Junchuriki was dead, creating a threat of the other villages attacking them.

Naruto was dressed in a long white jacket, black sash, white hakama, black tabi and white zōri, on his feet were a pair of black boots with white strips as patterns. His hair was swiped backwards on his head, leaving only one lone strand of hair lingering down his forehead, his katana was strapped to his waist as the wind carried his jacket in the air.

The Uzumaki looked over at Sasuke. "Hey Sasuke, here..." said Naruto as he unsealed the Kusanagi from his arm and threw it at the Uchiha. "Make good use of it."

The Uchiha caught the blade and smirked at the powerful sword. "Thanks Uzumaki-taicho..." replied the Uchiha with thankfullness. Sasuke looked at the blade with curiosity, he had been the only one out of the three of Naruto's guards that learnt Kenjutsu, and he had been looking for a good sword for himself. "This blade is perfect...but I need to get the stench of the snake off it."

Neji shrugged. "You know you can rename it if you want, Kusanagi is not really a good name." suggested the Hyuga.

Sasuke smirked and nodded, he brought the blade in front of his face. "I think I will call it..." muttered the man as he shrunk the blade down to the size of wakizashi. "Shinso..." finished Sasuke as he twiddled with the blade around his hands.

Naruto chuckled. "Sure... that is fine name." he said as they came up near the Kikyo Castle.

Kabuto was standing next to Baki, the leader of the Suna forces in Konoha, the two of them were surprised about the surprised meeting as Orochimaru had told them a few weeks before that he would not meet with them until after the invasion. Both Kabuto and the Suna Jounin called their troops to meet in the main large area of the castle that they controlled as the two leaders waiting on top of the balcony. It was hard for all of them to move in such large numbers at night, Kabuto had to cast a mass Genjutsu in order to sneak around more effectively.

Baki sighed as he crossed his arms. "What does Orochimaru-sama need from us Kabuto?" asked the man as he gazed at the large moon of the night.

The Oto spy shook his head as he leaned against the wall on his back. "I have no idea...I think it is serious because Orochimaru-sama acted a little different when he ordered me."

Manami was leaning against a wall below her leaders with her arms crossed and eyes closed, she didn't sleep anyway so she didn't mind having a meeting, but she didn't like some of the Oto men staring at her from a distance. The Suna beauty activated some of her sand and twirled it around as she glared at the several men oogling her, and felt better as the looked away quickly in fright. Manami sighed as she closed her eyes again, she looked up at the balcony and saw that her Jounin sensei was talking to the Oto leader...

"Temari...how much longer are we going to wait for Orochimaru?" asked the girl as her eyes barred into her sister's own.

The blonde girl shrugged and sighed. "I don't know Manami-chan, but I think it won't be long." said the girl as she checked the position of the moon.

The entire legion of Shinobi silenced when they felt a huge power surge appear inside the building, and they all looked over at the entrance of the castle to await their leader. Kabuto and Baki jumped down from above and landed in front of their troops, and they gazed into the shadows to he three humanoid shapes slowly emerge.

"Well, well, well...this is quite a welcoming..." said an unfamiliar voice to the two sub-leaders.

Baki got ready by channeling wind chakra into his hand as he Kabuto slipped a scalpel in his hand. "Who are you three?" asked Kabuto as he knew that Orochimaru was not among the three people nearing them.

"You don't recognize me Kabuto-san?" asked Naruto as he walked into the light and revealed his face to the people in front of him.

Kabuto's eyes, along with the sand team that was in the exams, widened when they saw the man that had supposedly died in the forest of death. People were further shocked when they saw that the other two people were Uchiha Sasuke and Hyuga Neji, the two most powerful Genin in Konoha. Manami's heart was once again beating out of control as she saw the blonde man again...her eyes trailed against his as they made eye contact again.

Kabuto walked a few steps near Naruto with a smirk. "I see that you are far more than what I expected..." said the man as he crossed his arms, hiding his scalpel from the others. "Did Orochimaru sen the three of you here?" asked the man as he tilted his glasses.

Neji and Sasuke scoffed as Naruto just smiled. "I'm afraid not Kabuto-san...Orochimaru no longer even exists." said the Uzumaki as the people in front of him scoffed at him.

Kabuto smiled. "Are you telling me that you have killed Orochimaru-sama?" asked the man as Baki besides him stayed emotionless.

Naruto smiled and nodded. "Yes I did..." he said plainly as he gestured to Sasuke. "Isn't that his blade?" The people looked over and saw the Uchiha holding the Kusanagi in his hand.

Kabuto's eyes widened and stalked up to the trio. "What did you three do to Orochimaru-sama?!" demanded the man as he held his scalpel at Naruto.

The Uzumaki smirked as he shook his head. "I would advise to calm down Kabuto-san...but Orochimaru is no more." stated Naruto as he crossed his arms.

Baki channeled his chakra and suddenly charged at the trio with wind chakra around his hand, "No matter what happened to Orochimaru, I can't let the three of you live." said the man calmly as he neared Naruto with his arm extended. Kabuto agreed with his partner's claim and followed suit with his chakra scalpel in his hand.

Naruto smiled at the two men. "That was a mistake..." muttered the man as he suddenly appeared behind the two Jounin. "Both of you had wide openings..."

The Oto and Suna army behind the battle eyes widened when they saw Kabuto and Baki freeze and suddenly spew blood from their sides. None of them saw what Naruto did or even see him move, but they knew that the two leaders were hurt quite badly as they all saw how deep the cuts were on their body. Sasuke then appeared in between Kabuto and Baki, and lifted them up, he threw them into the air and fired a Shakkaho at them. Neji jumped up after the two burnt and bleeding men until he was in between them.

"Hakkesho Kaiten!" cried the Hyuga as he spun around in mid air as his chakra shrouded around him, the two Jounin were caught in the grinding vortex and were forced to crash into the ground violently.

Naruto turned to face the stunned crowd of people. "I am Uzumaki Naruto...and I am your new leader." he said as he unsheathed his blade and stabbed it into the ground, making everybody in the room look at his Shikai. He immediately made everybody see his illusion self as he used Shunpo to appear next to Manami and brought her away from the castle. Looking back at his two sub-ordinates. "I leave everything to you now Sasuke...Neji."

The Uchiha and Hyuga sighed as they listened to the illusion Naruto speak to the crowd...

Sasuke crossed his arms and leaned on one side. "This is going to be a long night..." he muttered as he sighed.
