Chapter
Welcome to another installment of 'From love to hate'. Enjoy.
Lol, so many people are mad that Nami has more potential then Naruto. Let me clears this up, she has more potential, not strength.
I'm on a roll, 3 updates in less then 7 chapter should be up sunday.
Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto.
Chaos, absolute chaos. What was once the village of Uzushirogakure was in shambles. The buildings that once stood around the village, were burn to the ground. Besides all of this the sounds of war were still trembling about.
"Don't let them reach the civilians! We need to hold our ground!"
"Ahh! I'm hit." Said a soldier as he fell over, several kunais sticking out his body.
"Shiru! No! I'll fucking kill you!" The ninja threw a couple of kunais back, but he was surrounded quickly... he fell dead.
The Uzukage looked over his village his silver eyes flashing, fighting to keep his Kekkei-genkai alive.
"Uzukage-sama, I'm sorry. There's nothing we could do..." Said a ANBU his head lowered kneeling. The Uzukage didn't bother looking back at him.
"Shark, call a retreat. I will stay to hold back as many as possible don'-"
"But sir! You'll die there's to many of them!"
"Are you questioning me!" The Uzukage looked back, his silver eyes flaring, the ANBU found it hard to breath.
"N-no sir, I'll be right on it." He managed to choke out.
"Hurry, you could still catch up with the civilians. It is your job to take care of them. Now go." The Uzukage looked back and sighed when he saw the ANBU was gone.
"You should leave." The Uzukage said looking over his shoulder. A masked ANBU was standing behind him, his mask was bright blue, with two eye holes.
"Nope." The man said with a playful tone in his voice.
The Uzukage smirked. "I'll kill you if you don't."
A small chuckle could be heard. "You won't kill me, after all you value family over everything." Said the masked man as silver eyes flashed through the eye holes. The Uzukage frowned.
"Who would've thought things will end like this?" The Kage asked. His face showing his age the wrinkles along side his eyes depened. The man stayed shut, there was no answer to that, these were the final words of a man about to die.
"And to think Konoha will betray us like that, but I understand... I probably would've done the same thing." He took another pause, as he looked at the dark sky caused by the fires going around the village.
"I loved this village... do me a favor Nanashi. Take care of Naruto for me, he would be more confused then hes ever been, as for Kushina.. well lets just hope she doesn't kill you after what you did to her." He ended with a dry laugh. Nanashi nodded his head.
"I won't be able to do that Kitako-sama. As I will stay here with you." The Uzukage nodded.
"No you are not." Before Nanashi can react, the kage was by his side. The kages eyes glowed silver and just like that Nanashi was gone.
The third Uzukage sighed as he took a step forward, looking over the balcony of the kage tower.
"Forgive me." The kages eyes shined brightly, the silver eyes shrunk before expanding into a hurricane type design.
Flashback.
The Uzukage stared over the ocean.
"Sir, all civilians are evacuated. What are your orders?" The Uzukage looked back. The storm still blowing.
"In two minutes, I will take out the first fleet of ships. It was suppose to be two days before they attack, but nothing is set in stone. When I take out the first fleet of ships, I wan't all shinobis to line up against the shore line, try to keep the attackers as far from the village as possible. Once we lose the element of surprise, I wan't all shinobis to retreat back to the village, there we would have geographical advantage. If all else fails... well let's just hope it never comes to that. Now go."
A swish later the ninja was gone to give out the orders. The Uzukage looked over the clif, taking two steps forward, he fell off. He let himself free fall, his eyes close as he stretched out his senses... he felt the wind, the rain, the rocks, the ocean below him, the heat of the lightning... he was in perfect harmony with nature. His eyes snapped open.
He fell head first into the ocean. A huge tsunami higher then the clif, crashed over the first fleet that contained 10 boats, their were no survivors. The Uzukage once again, created a Tsunami this one much smaller to take out some of the secound fleet. Hundreds of arrows were shot from the boats falling down like rain...
The Uzukage cursed, his silver eyes glowed before a explosion echoed across the sky... the war for Uzu has begun.
flashback end
"I failed you Kushina. Good bye."
The village of Uzushirogakure was no more.
Konoha
Naruto got up with a jerk.
"Granda!" The bracelet around his wrist bursting before the green energy inside blasted into Naruto body, he fell over knocked out.
Mindscrape.
Naruto eyes flashed open and he chocked water sinked into his mouth. Getting up wheezing and panting, he coughed a couple of times. He looked around and saw he was in some kind of sewer. It was dark and the freezing water below him gave him a chill.
'Where am I?' Naruto thought to himself and jumped when it echoed all around him. 'The fuck.' once again the same results.
"Come to me boy." That was definetly not him...
"What?" Naruto asked, looking around.
"Come to me, just follow my voice." Naruto walked carefully towards the source of the voice, taking a little longer as the water under him pushed agains't his feet like some kind of current... where was it going?
He arrived at some giant room. The giant cage infront of him caused him to raise a eyebrow, what was so big... then his eyes widen.
"No..." Naruto said scared. The room flared with chakra, Naruto fell to his knees clutching his head, his eyes flashing from blue to red.
"Come on release control, give me your will... the power it feels good right? I could give you more, just say yes." Naruto was breathing hard, he was clutching his head and screaming in pain, he felt like someone was trying to yank his will and soul... and just like that the pain was gone. He covered his ears at the beast gave a giant bark that made the room shake. He looked around.
"Over here, Naruto-kun." Naruto eyes widen... that voice, it couldn't be.
"Ojiisan?" Naruto asked, turning around... his heart dropped when he saw his grandpa smiling warmly at him... he ran to hug but was shocked when he went right though him... like a ghost.
"I'm sorry Naruto but as it stands we could not make any physical contact." Naruto cursed hitting the water.
"Your dead ain't you..." Naruto whispered. The Uzukage looked at Naruto, he walked forward and crouched next to him.
"I'm afraid I am Naruto-kun." Naruto didn't respond, gentle sobbing could be heard.
"How?" The Uzukage, sat up.
"That's not important. Come on, get up your a Uzumaki have some pride." Naruto got up turning around to face him his eyes watery but no tears fell.
"What's gonna happen to Kasaan?" The Uzukage shook his head.
"She's a strong woman. Now Naruto I only have a couple of hours left to explain to you-" The Uzukage started.
"Explain to me what?" Naruto asked his voice low. The Kyuubi growled behind his cage before his blood red eyes pierced the darkness.
"Uzukage? Tsk, how the Uzumaki's has fallen... and to think I actually had respect for them."
"Quiet you beast!" The Uzukage said his eyes flashing silver, the Kyuubi gave a howl before growling.
"You dare flash me with those god for saken eyes! Let me out, I'll kill you!"
Naruto fell to his knees as the killing intent in the room began to rise.
"Be gone." The Uzukage said, his eyes lighting up... and just like that the Kyuubi was gone.
"What happened to it?" Naruto asked looking around, the gate, the beast the whole thing was gone.
"He's gone for now, that's all that matters. Now where was I... oh yes I came to explain to you-"
"Explain what?" The Uzukage eyes returned to its original green.
"The history behind the Uzumaki clan."
Hokage tower.
"You can't be serious, we can't help them now! Is better we let them solve their own problems." Yelled Homura. Minato narrowed his eyes.
"I agree with Homura, we could not affored a war right now. The village people will not take a war so lightly." Danzou backed up.
"Uzushirogakure has been a loyal ally, not to mention we have already agreed on making a Uzumaki clan in Konoha... If Uzu falls there would be no point in establishing a new clan."
"Your wrong, it would be even better." Hiruzen Sarutobi interrupted. "We could not let the people think theres more problems, did you forget the Uchiha clans been masscre? Plus with the Uchiha gone, we don't have enough people to form a good military campaign, we'll just be sending people to their deaths. Remember Konoha above all, nothing above Konoha."
Minato frowned, this didn't feel right... he wanted to help, no, he needed to help. But they had a point, to many things were going on at home for him to go and start anything outside.
"We could not say no! They helped us when we needed help, we can't just leave them to their deaths! That's inhuman." Minato raged. He was always big on loyalty and friendship... this just wasn't right.
"You pick then. You got two choices, resolve the Uchiha thing, or go to war. Your choice." Minato glared at all of them. Before sighing, letting up.
"Fine." A smug smirk went across Homura face.
"The fire shadow illuminates the village." And they walked out. Minato stood up and looked in the direction of Uzu.
'I'm sorry Kushina.'
Kushina jumped from tree to tree, going as fast as her legs could carry her. She's been running since the middle of the night, and hasn't stopped since, she was on her way back to Uzu. The feeling she got earlier wasn't normal. She whipped her katana out and easily blocked to shurikens. She stopped in the middle of the clearing and looked around.
"I could see you, come out." Kushina said looking at a tree. The tree blurred showing it was a gen-jutsu, before a man in a ocean blue mask with eye holes stepped out.
"I see your skills are as sharp as always." Kushina frowned.
"Who are you?" She questioned. The man was standing almost lazily both his hands in his pocket a bored look in his eyes.
"You forgot about me so soon? What its only been 13 years." Kushina eyes narrowed.
"I ain't gonna ask again, who are you?" Kushina yelled flaring her chakra.
"Damn, Chichi-chan didn't think you get so mad." Kushina eyes widen before she appeared above the man her katana ready to strike, the man raised a kunai trying to block only for Kushina to faze out leaving many after images, all swinging their swords at the him. He cursed, which one was the real one, he jumped away and smiled when he saw all of them disappear.
"So you sent a clone? Do I look that weak?"
"Where did you hear that name?" Kushina said from the branch of a tree.
"Heard? I made it. You must remember me if your first reaction was anything to go by." Kushina fazed out from the tree appearng infront of the man.
"Take off your mask."
"How about a glass of tea, some food and then we'll get to the freaky parts?" Kushina raised her blade up to his throat.
"Take off your mask." She said in a angry hushed voice. The man chuckled, before bringing his hand up to his face. He removed the mask in one quick motion. Kushina stayed shock, he had dark violet eyes, silky black hair in a pony tail a angular chin and fitting cheek bones.
"It's been awhile Kushina." Nanashi said. Kushina stared back before driving the blade through his throat, and didn't seem surprised when it ghost passed him.
"It really is you." Kushina hissed. "What do you wan't."
"Still mad huh?" A glare was his reply. "It's your dad-"
"Where is he." Kushina asked, her voice was cold but her eyes said it all. Nanashi saw this.
"I'm sorry Kushina... your dad is dead." Kushina dropped to her knees.
"So your telling me, that the rikudo sennin had a brother... that was even stronger then the guy we consider the inverntor of nin-jutsu." Naruto asked.
"Yes." The Uzukage responded.
"And that the Uzumaki are related to this so call brother, and that we have a kekkei genkai that is directly connected to him."
"Yes."
"And that's nobodys been able to fully activate it..."
"Yes."
"And that the former leader of Uzushirogakure, went crazy trying to handle the power of the kekkei genkai."
"Yes."
"Wow, that's some pretty good bullshit your telling me." Naruto replied, his eyes narrowed as he looked at his ghost grandpa.
"Listen Naruto are time together is coming to a end. I left you a scroll, it should tell you everything you need to know about the Uzumaki clan. Unfortunetly I destroyed the whole island of Uzu to make sure the enemy don't try to steal anything. Everything I told you was clasified, nobody in the world except a select few know about this... and if my fears are correct somebody has already found out... and you and your sister need to get strong... fast. I sent a man by the name of Nanashi, he should be able to train you and your sister... but he could only do so much. "
By now the kage was starting to fade.
"Remember Naruto, only you could change destiny." and like that he was gone.
Naruto woke up and realized he was still in his room... he heard the sound of a window being hit and went to check. He opened the window and jumped back as a hawk flew in, dropping a scroll in his hands before puffing away. He looked at his wrist and saw his bracelt was indeed gone and notice a small stinging sensation on his chest, he looked down and gasped, he had a tattoo across his body of a silver and red dragon the creature wrapping around him, its silver slitted eyes glowing. He ignored ir for now and looked at the scroll.
Naruto read the inscription on the scroll.
Ikiru Gogyo:
The story of a forgotten god, history of the Uzumaki.
Uzushirogakure
Kushina couldn't believe it, everything was destroyed. It was like Kami herself came down and erased it from the world. There was nothing, just flat land, it was like Uzu never existed. Nanashi watched Kushina as she layed eyes on what was formally the village of whirlpool. He had to admit he was just as sad as her but he had a mission, a mission he would not fail.
"Let's go Kushina." Nanashi said reaching out trying to grab her arm.
"Who was it?" Kushina ask her voice cold and void of any emotion. Nanashi frowned.
"Why does it matter?" Kushina turned her head, her green eyes displaying a small slit in them.
"I said, who was it? Who did this?" She yelled. Nanashi sighed.
"It was Iwa, they've been trying to get rid of us for the longest. I was away from the village... I tried to help but..."
"Where are the civilians?" Kushina asked, her voice still icy.
"River country, they should be heading to Konoha bu-"
"Konoha! Why didn't they send help? We were suppose to be allies."Kushina hissed.
"Hai, but the Hokage refused to send help, he did say the council was not in agreement." Kushina chakra erupted, the rocks under cracking from the pressure.
"I see. Let's go."
"Where?"
"Iwagakure." Nanashi narrowed his eyes.
"Revenge is never the right option."
"But yet it has always been seeked."
"By idiots." Nanashi yelled.
"Either way, I'm going. With you or without you." Kushina said jumping away. Nanashi cursed following after her.
They stopped when they reached a entourage of Iwa shinobis. Nanashi grabbed Kushina arm as she reached for her blade.
"Wait, there's more of them." As on cue two more platoon of soldier arrived, followed by many civilians. They stayed quiet trying to listen in on the conversation.
"Are these the last of them?" Asked a one of the many ANBU's.
"These were the only one willing to come with us." The masked ANBU nodded.
"And the rest."
"Dead." Kushina felt her heart skip a beat.
"Good, come on let's get these no good Uzumakis back to the village." Kushina stepped into the clearing, her chakra circling wildly around her, her hair floating in the air.
"Release them! Now!" Kushina voice became deeper and her green eyes flashed red. Nanashi looked on, so this was the power of the Kyuubi... for it's chakra to still be trapped inside her body even after it got extracted was amazing.
"And if we refuse?" Asked a well built shinobi as he pulled one of the civilians by the hair and driving his knee into her stomach.
"You'll die."Said Kushina her Katana already lodged inside his skull, his blood splashing over her face. Kushina didn't stop there, as she ripped the Katana out and kicked his body away from her. Red chakra began to bubble out of her forming a small cloak.
"Stop her!" Yelled one of the ANBU, but was quickly silence as a blade seperated his head from his shoulders. The shinobis in the clearing didn't hesitate.
"Doton: Kenga no jutsu."
"Doton:Kaido Shokutso."
"Doton: Ryuuga no jutsu."
Kushina looked at all the techniques coming at her without a flinch. She closed her eyes.
Boom!
The jutsu's hit home. Kushina was battered with the many techniques. The Iwa shinobis smirked.
"Not as tough as she seemed. Now for that, I'll actually enjoy raping these Uzu woman." The smoke cleared and every single one of the smirks were wiped off their faces. Kushina was standing still, not a scratch on her, one tail wagging behind her, her eyes blood red, her hair wild and messy.
"I'll kill you, I'll kill you all!" Kushina charged forward. The screams of the Shinobis could be heard well into the night. The moon shined over Kushina as she stood over the many bodys, her eyes still red looking from side to side like a predator searching for prey.
"That's enough Kushina." Nanashi said from the side. Kushina smiled as blood dripped from her chin, she was full of blood from head to toe. It slid off her like water. Kushina in her crazed state attacked. Nanashi stayed calm, before his eyes flashed silver and Kushina fell over, knocked out. He walked up to Kushina picking her up.
"Follow me." He said talking to the group of people behind him.
"Why should we follow you! That woman is crazy, she'll probably kill us." Nanashi shrugged.
"Do what you want. Just keep in mind, this woman was willing to die for all of you." The group of Uzumakis looked at each other, all the woman in the group stepped forward knowing what would've been their fate if Kushina didn't save them. The men were less willing but followed up. Nanashi kept walking, he didn't seem to care if they followed him or not.
"Let's make camp here." Nanashi stopped in a open plain. Laying Kushina down. The people behind him took a seat.
" What's your name?" Said a lady with bright red hair. Nanashi looked back at her.
"Nanashi." The woman raised a eyebrow.
"Your name is 'No name' that is what Nanashi stands for right?" Nanashi shrugged and looked away.
"I recommend you fall asleep, we head for Konoha in two hours." They all looked at him, like he was crazy.
"What in the hell are we gonna do in Konoha? They didn't even send help when we needed it... their nothing but trash!" Yelled a angry civilian. Nanashi looked at the moon.
"Yes, but this woman is the last living royal Uzumaki. She is the current leader of the Uzumaki clan established over there. I ain't saying you got to come, for all I care you can all go your seperate ways." Nanashi finished coldly. They nodded.
Nanashi looked at Kushina.
"You've grown Kushina." He said. He looked at the stars and saw one of them glowed brighter then the others.
"Kitako-sama.." He said.
'What does the future hold for us?'
A short old man sat behind his desk, working furiosly on his paperwork that over flowed his desk.
"Tsuchikage-sama! Tsuchikage-sama!" The Tsuchikage looked up from his dead, his small eyes showing his annoyance.
"What? I'm busy." He yelled. The person in the room didn't seem to bother by the news.
"Tsuchikage-sama, it's your son Kitsuchi... he's dead." The Tsuchikage eyes widen.
"Explain." The person in the room nodded.
"Well after we succeded in destroying Uzu, Kitsuchi was able to catch up to the civilians. He was able to take them hostage but when the relieve group you sent to back them up arrived they found the clearing full of blood, but worse the bodys looked like they were torn apart and clawed.. like a beast. Your son was found in the middle of everything with many Katana injurys... his head was missing. This leads us to believe it was the job of hunter nins."
The Tsuchikage listened to the story. He looked calm, but the killing intent in the room was making it kind of hard to breath.
"Get me Kurotsuchi... most of all I want you to add Kushina Uzumaki to the bingo book with a kill on sight order place, her as double S-rank... Also if you can, add a capture order for both her kids. This woman does not know who she is messing with... I want the Uzumaki clan dead, every single one of them... I can't allowed those two twerps of her to unlock that power.. I refuse to let it happen."
"What are you talking about Ojiisan-san? Going crazy." Asked a smirking Kurotsuchi. The Kage frowned.
"It's the Uzumaki, they killed your dad." Kurotsuchi eyes widen.
Minato frowned, his stomach was still feeling the guilt from yesterday. He was once again bullied by the council into not helping. He thought once Kushina came back he would be able to talk to her and make her forgive him. And as of yet, everything has gone wrong, Kushina hated him even more, she was going to hate him after she fines out what happened to Uzu.
He cursed, he hated his job.
"What's on your mind?" Asked a cloacked figure behind him.
"Yane, Sarutobi-san. It's the village, I don't think its becoming what I want it to be." The third frown.
"Are you questioning your role as the Hokage?" The third asked sharply. The thought alone was despicable.
"No, but as of late everything been going sideways. Ever since that night, I haven't made none of my own decision.. and I think its time for a change."
"Are you proposing treason?" Asked the third his hand already reaching for a kunai inside his cloack. The fourth frown, he had no doubt he could kill the old man in a heart beat but that was not what he wanted.
"No, as of today. Konoha will be under my command, the council will still have a say but I will be the last deciding factor. I have become soft, my guilt over losing my wife has been affecting my decision and because of it I am nothing but a joke.. a figure head. Not anymore, I am the Hokage. My first order of business, I want root to be disbanned or tell Danzou too hand over the power, if he does not agree, lethal force will be taken. Is that under stood ANBU-san."
Minato said talking to the wall, a ANBU appeared nodded and then left.
"The fire shadow illuminates the village! Minato your making a very rash move threatening Danzou like that!" The third fought on. Minato met his glare.
"The time of games is over. I will reunite my family, even if I got to destroy the village to reach that goal. Now leave, I got things to think about." The fourth said coldy as he turned around to look out the window.
"I'm sorry Minato." The third tried to stab a Kunai into the back of Minato head, but his eyes widen as he coughed up blood.
"Yeah, me too." Said Minato from behind him. The third Hokage was dead.
I'm done. I know took a long time to update but I tried to make it up in this chapter.
I killed the third, so what? He wasn't even that important to begin with. And yes I will kill off more characters... but why spoil the fun?
So the Uzumaki clan has a new power, what is it? What can it do? How do you get it?
