The dust slowly gave way as a Smokey figure stepped out dusting his clothes sluggishly. The man had blond long locks with red highlights, which he held back in a ponytail style. He wore a dark blue t shirt and anbu style dark blue pants, his look was completed with black shinobi sandals.
"Impossible " Tsunade stuttered out in disbelief
'N-Naru kun?' mei said immediately both from shock and excitement about the fact that he was still alive. For some reason though the fact that he didn't have his whiskers made him look a bit off to them.
"Brat I knew you were alive all along" Jiraiya said with relief in his voice while pretending to have missed Kushina's questioning look
"Hmn" the feral man grunted after observing their army as he walked away from the Smokey field, now making the battlefield look like a three way fight, with The feral man in the middle of both the allied force and akatsuki
"Naruto kun" hinata muttered to herself
'He looks pretty healthy to me, good he has been taking his nutrition seriously' Kushina thought surveying her son closely
'What's he doing?' Minato on the other hand thought
"Dobe... seems like the news about your death was all wrong" sasuke said calmly hiding his relief although he was a bit unnerved about 'Naruto's' new look and entrance.
...
...
"I thought he would be kinda happy to see you again ya know?" Suigetsu whispered to sasuke
Ignoring sasuke, the feral man turned scanning the rest of the forces before fixing his sight on Tobi, they silently stared at each other for a while ,before Naruto tilted his head to glance at the real madara briefly in confusion
...
"Somethings not right about him" Tobi said a bit low throwing caution to Yahiko
'I dont sense the kyuubi chakra in him, is he masking the chakra somehow ?' Yahiko thought frowning
"Akatsuki" the feral man muttered calmly
Everyone else on the shinobi alliance side kept silent watching 'Naruto's' behavior closely, for those who knew Naruto they would say something was absolutely wrong with him since he wasn't acting like he usually does, but then again no one really knew the real him.
"Uzumaki it's good to see you alive...but the question is, what do you honestly think you can do now? , the battle is almost over" Tobi said
"Uzumaki?" Karin muttered in a low tone, she thought it was just a random joke when she heard sasuke mention a blonde uzumaki who was his teammate , looking at Kushina, Karin instantly summarized that he was a half blood
'Another one' an upset Ao thought hearing what Karin said.
"Wrong! ... the battle has only just begun" the feral man finally said in a gruff and serious voice as his face went completely blank of any emotion
"What you talking bout bra-" jiraiya went silent as he watched 'Naruto' blur out of sight then appearing on the same mountain with the remaining members of the Akatsuki
Everyone on the battlefield went silent as the feral man reappeared on the mountain pulling Zetsu out of the ground by his neck like some kinda weed. Sensing the approaching missiles the feral man quickly created clones which rushed in,shielding him. Multiple clouds of smoke appeared with numerous clones taking the attack head on
Digging the tip of each of his fingers into the sides of Zetsu's neck, the feral man forced his chakra into his opponents system watching him squirm violently
It wasn't long that all the veins in the body of Zetsu became very visible as they pulsed. Honestly it was scary watching an S ranked criminal wailing like a little girl
"One down" the feral man said loosing his grip as the corpse of Zetsu dissolved immediately into black sand, immediately the rest of the Akatsuki members dispersed quickly watching their comrade fall before their eyes
'What sort of jutsu?' Yahiko thought staring at 'Naruto'
'We don't have information about his skills and what he's been up to the past months...now is my chance' Tobi thought
Seeing that the boy was going to be a real threat Tobi controlled the bijuus to each fire a bijuudama at the feral man at the same time the rinnegan user fired multiple more missiles at the feral man who lazily turned to stare at the two incoming attack's .
The combined attack's crashed into the mountain obliterating it and leaving a huge cloud of smoke in its location. Jumping off the crumbling mountain the remaining members of the akatsuki landed on a bird summoning which was made by one of the rinnegan users a good distance away from both the Shinobi Alliance and the destroyed mountain.
Briefly glancing at Tobi , Yahiko couldn't understand why his partner would go that far for just a single person.
'I hope he hasn't forgotten we still need the fox' Yahiko thought briefly glancing at the masked man.
...
...
"Now that's been taken care o-" Yahiko said turning away from the large smoke cloud caused by the explosion
Sprouting from the floor thousands of white Zetsu's stood up, completely covering the front of the battlefield.
Slowly the dust gave way to reveal the corpse of Naruto on the floor which lay idle being damaged from the explosion
"Naru..."
...
...
" I see...so the theory of the sharingan having abilities to control biiju is true" the feral man said calmly as he planted his feet into the floor then pushing his back forward making him slowly arise back up into a standing position
'So as long as you have the mangekyou sharingan you possess the ability to control the bijuus...this is exactly why they should be eradicated completely' the feral man thought in anger
'The fuck is going on' everyone thought watching as he stood up after somehow taking numerous bijuu bombs and surviving, sure half of his face was burnt to the point that you could see his brains and one of his arm was basically removed from his body, only hanging by few muscles. The rest were burns which is to be expected .
Taking few steps the feral man stood facing the army of white Zetsu making them shift their attention completely from the shinobi alliance.
Sliding his left hand through his scalp as if combing his bald head, immediately blond locks grew out with his opened skull melting back to its original look, even his damaged clothes seemed to stitch back together.
Staring at the mass of Zetsu, the feral man couldn't help but grin, now he had gotten the information he needed he could do as he pleased ,long story short, the battle would be a total massacre.
"What the fuck" suigetsu sad loudly getting freaked out as he watched the damaged tissues of 'Naruto' knit themselves back and bones melt back as if new.
"I-impossible, h-how is he not dead" Karin stuttered in confusion
' sure we've all had heard about numerous healing abilities but this is something else and honestly it's scary.'
...
"Finally the battle begins " Tobirama said while smiling, somehow already forgetting what itachi did to him
"No...it's better to observe " hashirama said while putting his hand in front of Tobirama stopping him from advancing
"What...why" hiruzen and kushina said at the same time
"But he needs he-" Minato said
"Relax...we don't know who's side he's on exactly, it wouldn't benefit us helping him just for him turn against us" hashirama said making the third stare at him questionably
Honestly leaving the boy to battle alone with the enemy was not something hashirama would normally do, but the presence he sensed radiating from Naruto was not something he felt comfortable with
With the feral man and the remaining kages
"Now then, die with pride knowing you had a chance to gaze on the wonders of kami himself" Yahiko said spreading his arms wide open dramatically
"Impossible, their number is far greater than what we fought in two days" some random sensory ninja said loudly making everyone else frown
...
...
"Kami??" The feral man said chuckling loudly as if he was told a joke. This response was not what Yahiko expected at all and it angered him a bit.
...
Tobi giving the Zetsu army a signal to advance expected to see some sort of fear on his enemies face, at the sight of such a massive army approaching. but Naruto looked too calm, maybe a little unimpressed for some reason
"If this is your impression of the capabilities of a god, I'm sorry to say your imagination is extremely lacking in depth." the feral man said making everyone stare at him in confusion
With the alliance
"There's no way he could fight all those"
"Is he crazy?"
" he really intends on fighting all of them" some random shinobi said
...
With The feral man
"I would be delighted to give you a proper demonstration of how a higher being fights" the feral man said walking forward slowly, his frame instantly splitting into two half's, separating from him like an after image
The materialized clone got on a knee crouching on the floor, behind the original's previous location , he surveyed the entire army, then lifted his right hand as if trying to grab something
"Chikei no henka( Terrain alteration)"
The clone said seriously as he slammed his palm directly on the floor creating a small crater, making most of the shinobi alliance members eyes widen in surprise
Immediately the ground rumbled as huge rocks arose from the floor destroying the Zetsu army formation, as some where either crushed by the rocks or falling from
"Trim the fields " the feral man said as his frame split again, with two more clones ripping out from his left and right .They immediately rushed head on into the mass of Zetsu
Trying to keep their balance on the every crumbling terrain,the Zetsu's failed to notice the two orange blurs until it was too late.
Punching one Zetsu directly, everyone was surprised to see him shoot off the floor like it was a punch thrown by Tsunade. The clone instantly bent avoiding a sloppy punch by another Zetsu, he then slammed his elbow into the Zetsu's stomach ,stunning it he held it by its neck tossing it into more approaching
Letting his gaze roam over the army of Zetsu, the clone noticed the other 'Naruto' clone was occupied with battling the edo itachi. Moving his stance the clone quickened his pace in deflecting and countering any attack thrown at him.
'I'm getting tired of fighting weaklings' the clone fighting the Zetsu clones thought in anger. Then he began attacking more ferociously ,which ended with him either pulling out their organs from their body or ripping their limbs clean off
" let's take out their support " some random Zetsu shouted after briefly assessing the damage caused by the jutsu earlier. He then immediately began running towards where the original and the first clone stood.
"Aaaaahhhhh" numerous clones stupidly shouted as they too headed towards 'naruto's' loaction.
...
...
Naruto stared at the approaching Zetsu's unimpressed before moving his gaze back to the rinnegan users. The first clone who looked just as bored as him released a sigh before changing his hand seal and then slamming his two palms flat on the floor
"Chakurasupaikufīrudo (chakra spike field)" The clone said as black Smokey spears erupted from the terrain in random positions, piercing numerous Zetsu and in the process eliminating a huge amount of the approaching Zetsu's. (This move is basically the used by Naruto during his fight with pein, when he lost control, there was a scene where he was in the water grappling on pain and then pain almighty pushed him. The name is just some random stuff I gave it)
...
...
"Close call" another of 'Naruto's' clone said while narrowly avoiding getting pierced by one of the spears
With the kages
Seeing a mass of black liquid build up from a spot on the destroyed mountain where the akatsuki once stood upon, sasuke immediately conjured his Susano'o making it fire several arrows at the object
...
Suddenly a chunk of the black liquid broke out holding one of the arrows in its grip as the others sailed by. The black liquid quickly molded into a really badly deformed human form with each of its limbs twisting to proper location making it look a bit better
...
"Your impatience is quite annoying...Sasuke" the figure said squeezing tight snapping the Susano'o arrow into two half's . Squatting down on the mountain he relaxed his cheek on his left hand which he rested by the elbow on his knees as he stared at the shinobi below him.
Watching as the mass of black liquid became more detailed with each passing second, Everyone stared in shock and disbelief
...
'Wtf that's Naruto ' everyone though straring at the man on the mountain. A tan skinned man who had a slit on his forehead and three scars on each side of his cheek that strangely resembled whiskers. The man had long thick blond locks packed in a pony tail, allowing some locks to fall on each side of his face, with some of them being braided while other just had orange beads on them. Overall his hair reached the mid of his chest.
His clothing consisted of dark blue anbu pants and black boots . The fact that he was shirtless exposed the tattoos which for weird reasons were constantly moving across his body , he completed his dressing with a dark orange long scarf wrapped around his neck covering the lower portion of his face .(kinda like konohamaru's scarf but longer)
"Na-" Tsunade began to speak slowly only to be cut off
"I'm so glad your alive naru kun... when I heard of what happened to you I was really upset" mei said stepping forward smiling happily at her blond lover.
...
...
'Wait a minute did she just say...'
'Naru kun??' Everyone thought completely confused as they stared at mei who was oblivious to all that was happening around her.
'Don't tell me, she's the same Mei from the letters...FUCK' was the thought going through most of the konoha shinobi their mind, getting hit by this new discovery they stared in surprise.
"Likewise Hime, I too was displeased about my untimely death by the hands of those I trusted , but it would seem that my stubbornness played in my favor, allowing me to somehow slip through the fingers of the shinigami himself" Naruto said demonstrating with his hand as he slowly closed his fist shut tightly
"But then my survival came with a price. One that I plan on collecting immediately " Naruto said darkly making Mei state at him a bit confused
"Naru Chan what are you talking about " kushina questioned walking forward, she took a quick glance at mei
...
"Mom..." Naruto tilted his head in confusion as he stared at his mom
"What do you mean by death, it's obvious your not a reanimated corpse and what's this about betrayal" Kushina asked stepping forward a bit
"I see they didn't tell you anything...Why don't you ask them" Naruto whispered the first part of the sentence a bit low, but it was still heard by everyone
...
...
"What does he mean?" minato questioned seriously while looking at Jiraiya making him sweat
"Explain yourself !" Kushina added firmly while looking at Jiraiya seriously
"Uh you s-see, things didn't go as minato expected ..." Jiraiya stuttered while avoiding both minato and kushina their gaze
"Pfff...long story short your so called precious village which you sacrificed yourself for, treated me like dirt from the moment I was in their care, they would assault me, starve me, insult me regularly , basically anything that would hurt me in any way. Still I tried to please them, but it wasn't enough for them. Having grown tired they finally decided to do away with me, i was framed for a crime which obviously i didn't commit, Locked up in a prison I endured much more, which led to a my inevitable death" Naruto said summarizing his life
"W-what" Kushina stuttered our in disbelief
"You promised me he would be properly taken care of" minato said staring at Jiraiya then switched to the third who had his head down in shame
"We tried our best, but uh... once word got out about his status things became harder to contain. You have to understand" Jiraiya pleaded with his student ,already feeling disspointed with himself
...
...
"uhm son... I know your upset with them and frankly so am I ,But I do ask that you at least give them another chance, I know what they did hurt you a lot, still you can show them mercy I'm sure it was a mistake " minato pleaded ignoring the surprise look his wife shot him
'It's always about them, right father' Naruto thought while chuckling darkly
"Mercy? "
"The same mercy you all showed to my clan right " Naruto said darkly making everyone flinch back
...
...
"So that's what this really is all about...revenge?" Tobirama spat out bitterly. (Tobirama and Hashirama know nothing about the destruction of Uzu as they we're already dead before the second ninja war...That's what I'm working with)
"I know nothing about you and frankly I could care less. But all I know is that you not only betrayed konoha but now wish to enact your vengeance upon it, this has nothing to do with your clan am i right?"
"The life of a traitor matters as much as one grain of rice in a bag full of rice, isn't that what grandfather used to say kaa chan" Naruto said in far away tone
'How does he know of that' Kushina mused while staring at naruto's smiling face
"Good guess Ndaime Hokage...but I'm also here because of something else , something important , something known as... Project genesis" Naruto replied calmly
The moment the words left naruto's mouth most of the kages froze as their eyes widened in surprise
...
...
'Did he just say project genesis... who told him about it... how does he even know about it...oh kami don't tell me he plans on continuing what they couldn't finish, Naruto what are you up to?' Hiruzen thought frantically before reality dawned on him, staring at Naruto sternly trying to read through his emotions, hiruzen gulped seeing no ounce of joke in the blond uzumaki's face
...
"W-what..who told you about that" hiruzen shouted looking at Naruto seriously
"Project genesis" kushina muttered while gripping her head as memories flooded her mind.
'So grandfather really did seal her memories. Quite an effective way he planned on using to get the necessary information' Naruto though watching his mom closely
"What's he talking about honey" Minato questioned in confusion, he and kushina were married for a few years and this was the first time he ever heard of a project genesis and given her reaction it was probably something big.
"H-how do you know about that" Kushina stuttered out ignoring minato's question
"You told me...remember " Naruto replied answering his mom as he pointed at the center of his stomach where the kyuubi seal used to be.
"Uhm...what's this project genesis" Gaara questioned, since he was still new to being a kage he had little knowledge of things that happened in the earlier wars
"Can someone enlighten us " Tobirama said with hashirama nodding his head in the background
"Project genesis was a secret Uzumaki mission, one which consisted of them collecting all the bijuu's .Apparently they found a way of 'destroying' them, it was one of the reasons the the clan got destroyed" Onoki said shocking a lot of people on the battlefield
' He's and Uzumaki' Tobirama thought scaling Naruto up and down with his sight
"Wait uzumaki is a clan" Sakura said glancing at sasuke to see his reaction
'What... destroying the bijuu's is impossible...why would they even try something like that' Hashirama thought sadly
"Was a clan...besides your bigger concern should be how they expected to destroy the 9 beasts" kakashi said still staring at Naruto
'If they planned on destroying all 9 bijuu's they must have been very powerful' Neji and sasuke thought still confused why they had heard nothing of such clan before
'So he really is another Uzumaki...' Karin though hiding her joy as she analyzed Naruto carefully
...
"The Uzumaki's were really good at keeping secrets, I'm still confused on how other nations found out about their plan" Ay said in confusion which was actually what was going through the mind of few who knew about the clan
"Honestly even I was concerned about how the other villages mysteriously knew how to navigate in their fields along with the entrance to the village itself" Onoki said frowning slightly. When the attack on uzu had taken place Onoki was in command of his village. He was a bit skeptical when they received information about how to navigate into the village along with warnings about their defense. It was really detailed information from an unknown source, but who was he to ignore it all.
" how else do you think it happened ?" Naruto questioned calmly making the kages go silent trying to come up with a theory
"Maybe your clan wasn't as strong as they thought "
"Yeah...or someone in your clan probably snitched "
...
"You know something?" Hashirama said seriously, he had been silently observing everything the entire time. But hearing the news really upset him
The smirk on Naruto's face widened into a full grin
...
...
With Tobi
'Something has happened to kabuto' Obito thought glancing briefly at itachi who was consumed by white light with his body crumbling into pieces of paper, turning to madara and the second tsuchikage he noticed the same phenomenon going on
'The boy should be taken care of immediately '
Shifting his attention to the original Naruto and the kages , he instantly went through the hand seals to channel chakra again into the beasts now that that they were distracted and his chakra had been replenished. He planned on taking them down, along with Naruto
Going through the handseals he channeled the necessary chakra. Halfway through the chakra transfer his left leg snapped broken from the ankle making him loose his balance.
Forced to break the jutsu he used his hands to prevent himself from falling completely face down.
'What!!' he shouted mentally panicking as he felt his stored chakra drain quickly away completely from his system, weakening him.
'My chakra its fading'
It was weird, the feeling of multiple things crawling under his skin at a fast rate, using the Kamui wasn't going to work now, his chakra was already halfway drained and the move he tried to perform earlier although not successful still consumed his chakra
Looking at where he placed his hand his eyes widened in surprise as seal like patterns crawled onto his fingers, then things got weird as his finger stretched out twisting and folding at random angles
Gasping in fear Tobi was panicking, he couldn't think clearly in his current situation . Panicking he watched as each place the seal appeared seem to snap to life immediately disfiguring his structure , bending him in odd directions.
The pain was becoming more unbearable each second
"Aaaahhhhhhh"
Drawing the attention of everyone they stopped to stare at the phenomenon. The fake madara's body was acting weird as if he were a puppet
His elbows rotated the opposite direction then proceeded to twist like clothe causing the bones to snap out making blood to spill from the openings
'Those seals look bit familiar' Tsunade thought staring at the seals consuming the masked man
Narrowing his eyes sasuke stared in confusion and a bit of fear. Whoever is capable of such justu is a huge threat. Moving his eyes back to Naruto, sasuke couldn't help but gulp seeing Naruto smile in excitement during the whole thing
"T-the ffffuck is G-oing Ooooon!!!" Tobi choked out before his neck twisted completely backwards ripping the skin at his neck open as his neck bone poked through his throat allowing blood to spray out, but then his neck continued rotating doing a complete 360
With each second the bones of Tobi snapped and curled together until he was completely consumed by the black tattoo. But then all that remained of the masked man was a huge bloody ball made of flesh and bones
...
...
Slowly rising from the ground just like Zetsu does ,standing in place of Tobi was the black haired man with a scar in his face who stared calmly back at everyone making Naruto's grin widen a lot more
"Interesting" Orochimaru muttered staring at the man as he licked his lower lip rather slowly making Anko's glare intensify.
Back with Naruto and the kages
"Interesting entrance..." Naruto said clapping slowly drawing everyone's attention back to him
"Now then where were we..."
"Skip the bullshit...what are you trying to say?" some random sand shinobi questioned
"Hahaha think about it..." Naruto said giving a dramatic pause once he noticed he finally had everyone's attention
"Had my ancestors completed the task the other villages would not have been the only ones to loose their trump card...Now do you get the picture " Naruto concluded calmly confusing many
'So they got betrayed by their allies, such a twist to the story ...I was curious why I didn't see any redheads' Madara thought a bit unhappy with the news. He had numerous encounters with members of the redhead clan, honestly speaking they were pretty strong and troublesome , although not alk were able to reach his and hashirama's capabilities they would have made this battle a lot more interestingly.
'Trumph card??'
'He's referring to the bijuu's...' Mei thought looking at Naruto with a calculating gaze and summarizing his overall behavior since he arrived
"Allies...Your saying Uzu was betrayed by another village that probably was on neutral terms with them, one that found out about their plans and saw that they had the potential to loose their tailed beast" Mei said dropping a huge bomb , this made others widen their eyes in surprise while Naruto smirked
Moving a bit closer to the frontlines Ao stared at Mei's back while frowning
"I see... an ally of Uzu would probably make a lot more sense. It's would also explain how the other villages knew the loophole in their city defense " Orochimaru who had been quiet finally said. Sure he knew who did it but that didn't mean he couldn't play the fool.
Glaring at him in anger anko tightened her grip on her kunai. It made no sense how the other kages suddenly turned a blind eye choosing to ignore all he had done and decided to team up with the traitorous snake.
'It can't be ...right? ' kushina thought in confusion as her mind tried to process everything.
Kushina's flashback
Her memory instantly backtracked back to a familiar scene, one of when she was still a child and had followed her dad to one of the meetings regarding the current war between her clan and the shinobi villages
...
...
"It has to be someone close to us" Ichika Uzumaki she has a fair skin tone, black eyes with very long red hair, almost reaching down to the ground, tied by a black ribbon right near the end. She wears, a black vest somewhat similar to a flak jacket, blood red pants with a white skirt over it and white shinobi sandals.
"I agree, we all know non of our people would ever think of supporting their bias lifestyle of war and power. It has to be someone who can get in and out of the village easily " Takehiko Uzumaki he has red hair, with a large gray beard and dark brown eyes. He has light brown skin. he wears a dark brown Kimono and a pair of wooden sandals.
"Could it be someone from spring village?"Arata Uzumaki he has messy short red hair, sharp black eyes. His attire consisted of dark greyish pants reaching to his calves and a light grey hoodie ,with a fishnet undershirt under his clothe and finally black shinobi sandals
...
"No" Ichika said
"Sure we are on friendly terms with them, but unlike us they absolutely distanced themselves from the other shinobi villages" Ichika concluded her theory quickly making takehiko nod in agreement
"Then add the fact that spring village is a samurai village, something like this goes against their doctrine" Shin Uzumaki said. He has wide greyish eyes and short mousy brown hair. He usually has a hazy, dreamy look on his face. He wears dark grey robes with a pale blue and white poncho.
...
"True...there's also the fact that it's been months since we got any visit from one of theirs " Takehiko said while deep in thought
...
"Then who damn it!!" Jūrō Uzumaki has narrow brown eyes . He has short light red hair . He wears a short-sleeved grey jacket, under which is a mesh armour T-shirt. He also wears dark brown pants, a pair of silver silver hoop earrings
...
...
"Konoha?" Replied A red headed elderly man who wore glasses. This is Kaito Uzumaki a middle age man with smooth red hair that is parted on the right, dark grey eyes and a beauty mark underneath his left eye. He has a tall, lean yet muscular physique. He wears a black long sleeve shirt, baggy cargo pants and then shinobi sandals. Honestly he had been silently thinking about the possible theories and well konoha's betrayal made much sense .
"What !! " Arata shouted loudly making other recoil back a bit
"Impossible!"Jūrō said seriously
"What are you saying, they would never-"Takehiko paused mid sentence as his eyes widened
"What makes you say that" Shin said looking at Jūrō ,patiently waiting for an answer he got nothing
...
"Think about i-" Kaito about to give his theory was rudely cut off
" Enough...I won't sit down quietly while you accuse them of betraying us, they are family and would never do anything of such" Arata said in a threatening tone
"How can you be so sure ?, we both know that apart from spring village, konoha is the only other village we are friendly with, they even have complete open passage into our village, something not even spring village has." Kaito said seriously
Arata has gone silent , looking around for others to back him up
"That's logical but It's still not enough evidence " Ichika responded while shifting into thinking mode
"Then the fact that the kyuubi would also be needing a new container, konoha must have somehow heard of our plan and knowing that we would eventually need the fox they decided to make a move at us first" Kaito said
"After all if Kushina hime has the fox sealed in her what's to stop us from relocating her back to her hometown ,even if its briefly. Wouldn't that give us an easy opportunity to extract the fox" Kaito concluded shocking everyone else
...
"True" Shin said backing Kaito's theory
...
...
"I too came to a similar conclusion a while back" Hayashi Uzumaki the current head of the uzumaki clan. He has long red hair packed in a ponytail , a beard covering his whole jawline , wears glasses. His clothing consist of black armour worn over a simple white suit with sandals. This armour was constructed from numerous metal plates, formed into multiple protective guards along his body.
"My lord you cant honestly believe him" Jūrō
"Would explain how suddenly the other villages suddenly discovered the route to navigate around the whirlpools even the aid we asked of them for days still hasn't arrived, it's clear to see they had a hand in this somehow" Takehiko said making Jūrō go silent on realization
"I know some of you may find it hard to believe but right , our only option is to defend our home , once that is done we can focus on finding out the one responsible for this leak of information" Hayashi said calmly.
Watching them nod their heads in agreement, Hayashi couldn't help but sigh in relief ,honestly he called them here to find out about the current situation, but somehow the topic switched over to this.
"My lord is it wise that your daughter be here to hear this information. i mean if konoha actually betrayed us, they could have one of their yamanaka clan members dive into her mind...her life could be in danger" Ichika said while frowning at the thought of their soon to be leader getting harmed by the traitors
"Fret not seeing as she is the next heir it is only logical she should be here, and the case of konoha intruding on her mind would be taken care of before we send her to them"Hayashi said smiling sadly
...
Flashback end
Minato seeing his wife's state tried to comfort her but for some reason she paid no attention to him at all. Frowning he tried to think of a way to fix things before they escalated quickly.
"The only nation whirlpool was friendly with around that time was spring village, which wouldn't make sense since they don't have a bijuu. But then then there's Kon-" Onoki said making his eyes widen in surprise as he understood what Naruto was trying to say
"Impossible" Tsunade shouted cutting Onoki off from what he was about to say
...
With the feral man and Yahiko
Feeling upset about the sudden turn of event Yahiko focused his sight on the feral man, who was making his way through the battle field rather slowly, while occasionally removing any Zetsu that approached him
'Zetsu was right, Uzumaki is a bigger threat' Yahiko thought upset
"I will handle him" The Asura Path said confidently as he dropped off the bird landing on the floor below in a loud bang
"Back him up" Yahiko said looking at The Animal Path getting a nod. Dropping off the bird the two rinnegan users instantly went to work. With the bald man dashing towards the feral man the moment he landed.
Hearing the noise from The Asura Path landing the feral man threw away the corpse of a Zetsu he had just killed and instead glanced at the bird summoning before grinning at The Animal Path , his mind not even been concerned about The Asura Path
Growling loudly in excitement he flexed his fingers then adjusted his feet causing the ground behind him to crack slightly.
The white Zetsu's who were about to attack him ,as if reading his mind slowly backed away from him.
And then it happened, the feral man shot forward like a bullet ripping everything that stood in his path as his main focus was the orange haired guy on the floor
The Asura Path gave a sadistic grin as he fired numerous missiles at the feral man.
Seeing the missiles the feral man did something not expected by anyone, he sprinted into a Zetsu using his body like a shield to absorb the attack. Once it hit, the view of The Asura Path was obscured by smoke forcing him to navigate the other missiles around back to where the smoke was.( I think giving him the ability to control the missiles would be cool, since he is basically like a cyborg)
Out of the smoke came the feral man sprinting quickly. Sensing the approaching missiles he instead opted to picking up any Zetsu in his path and tossing them into the missiles. Honestly it was a lot harder than it looked, considering the fact that he didn't even stop his sprinting once and that he would sometimes rotate once his feet was on the floor to throw a new Zetsu.
Once he was certain all the missiles were gone he resumed his focus on The Animal Path ,but first The Asura Path had to be taken care of.
"Kuchiyose no jutsu (summoning jutsu)" The Animal Path said as an array of seals instantly spread on the floor then a huge poof of smoke materialized obscuring everyone's view
...
...
Rrrrrwwwwwwww
Out of the smoke arose a three headed brown dog with multiple piercings and rinnegan eyes.
"The fuck..."
"Where did that come from"
...
Honestly speaking right now one would question why ask a stupid thing like that. After all summoning creatures were something known
"Don't tell me he plans on taking that thing on alone" some random shinobi muttered
Preparing to fire more missiles The Asura Path suddenly stiffened when the feral man disappeared before his eyes only to appear holding his severed head in his grip. The few seconds of The Asura Path's life was spent watching his body idly falling.
The feral man gave a sadistic grin while tossing the rinnegan users head away. Staring into the eyes of the dog summoning the feral man shot off the floor quickly, going head on towards the raging dog summoning which was on the same path to him.
...
...
Tripping on his leg the feral man tumbled roughly , on the hard floor towards his enemy. This confused the summoning but it lowered it's head low while opening its mouth, already preparing to rip through the rolling man.
Grinning happily once he saw his plan was a success the feral man maneuvered himself quickly ,his frame slowly splitting into two half, with the original touching his right palm on the floor as he spiked his chakra. (this move is not necessarily a jutsu, it's more of a skill that involves blasting out raw chakra from a point on the body , the chakra then acts like a sorta spring pushing against the surface it comes in contact with.)
*Boom*
The result was instantaneous as his movement direction was altered, the chakra pulse threw him above the dog summoning. The new clone on the other hand continued with its rough rolling. Noticing the absence of the dogs fangs it was clear that once it noticed the originals plan it attempted to follow him instead.
This gave him an opening as he quickly went through hand seals. He said once the ball fired from his palm, the summoning had little time to react as it was pulled into the vortex.
Grinning with satisfaction the clone poofed out of existence and immediately the original landed at his position
Slamming his palms together the feral man rotated his palm until it was in a T shape, then he pulled them apart as black chakra materialized within the center, twisting in shape it became more solid the further the feral man's palms got.
"It doesn't matter how many summonings you conjure, the results still remains the same" the feral man said gripping the black spear which was giving out a dangerously high amount of chakra
Taking his aim he reared his arm back,then quickly threw it forward towards The Animal Path throwing the spear in the process
The spear was fast and I mean very fast. Yahiko could only widen his eyes in surprise as The Preta Path landed in front of The Animal Path , his aim was to absorb the unknown black chakra. It would be seen as a stupid thing to do but Nagato knew that he only had few bodies that were made for combat, sacrificing one useless body to save another was worth it.
The results of this foolishness was quick, as the body of the The Preta Path instantly went paralyzed then started crumbling to black dust.
Suddenly a hand shot straight through the crumbling Path's head catching The Animal Path by his face. Looking at its owner The Animal Path's eyes could only widen in surprise as the feral man sprinted away using his body as a shield as he slammed into a huge rock cracking it.
'I wasn't expecting him to regain himself that quickly after that attack' Yahiko thought with a grim look
The feral man wasting no time proceeded to rain fast and hard precise punches on The Animal Path ,giving him no time to react to the attacks. Having severely weaker the man's chest bones with his punches, he plunged his arm through the peins chest
"Fushoku-Sei gasu(Corrosive fume)" the feral man muttered as his arm turned dark purple seeping dark purple smoke into the The Animal Path's body making it crumble into dust
With Nagato and Konan
"The kyuubi jinjurikin is proving to be a lot more troublesome" Konan said calmly watching the serious look in Nagato's eyes
"That May be...but he will fall, just like the others" Nagato said calmly as if he could see the future. Deep down even he did not believe his words, he was already down by two bodies and most of the rest were not reliable for combat.
...
Staring at him with a bit of doubt Konan was about to suggest she head into the main battle when an unidentified object crashed directly through their hideout creating a huge opening which allowed the light to illuminate the dark room
With each passing second the sound of the approaching footsteps became a lot more pronounced making Konan to stand directly in front of Nagato as a guard while she fired numerous paper senbons towards the opening
"I know I smelt something fishy nearby" the old man said calmly surprising the two members of the akatsuki
"Paper servant dance: explosion" Konan said immediately spraying numerous papers that twirled towards the unknown person.
Boom
Within seconds the papers exploded loudly filling the hideout with smoke which eagerly darkened the room
...
...
"From my observation I believe you are the real leader of this organization" the voice said again but this time nagato stopped Konan from attacking.
"I am, and who are you exactly"
"No, whose side are you on" Nagato said calmly staring at the enemy who appeared to be an old man
"You already know the answer" the old man said calmly as he slowly dusted off his top
'An Uzumaki wasn't really my guess but it's kinda obvious, the rinnegan requires Uchiha and senju cells to activate and since the senju's and uzumaki are basically relatives. it's possible to use uzumaki cells as a replacement...Truthfully uzumaki cells would be preferable because they also have the natural high chakra capacity which allows the rinnegan to be used far longer' the old man thought while scanning the dried up form of nagato (To summarize it since the sage of six path is the father of both Indra and asura it's only natural that those cells would have originated from him)
"Uzumaki" Konan muttered in a low tone, hearing her answer made the man smirk slightly.
"Now I have answered your question it's time you answer mine" the old man said in a calm yet non threatening tone
"I don't recall us making any sort of deal" Konan said seriously
"Did you know Naruto was an Uzumaki before you sent your members after him" the old man said completely ignoring her reply
"The fact that he is an Uzumaki means nothing to me or my plan" Nagato said calmly. Hiding her frown Konan stared at the enemy who had a somewhat thoughtful look
'The question was unnecessary since it was obvious the akatsuki had information about each of the jinjurikin' the old man thought briefly
"I see" the old man said in a sober tone. Honestly this made him feel a lot better about what he was going to do next
