If Itachi was another man he would've been angry. He would've been angry at many things, the fact that he had to destroy his clan, the fact he had to make his brother watch it all in order to secure his death, angry at the fact that life has served him a cup of tea too hot to drink, and he has been gulping it down. But right now, he wasn't angry, he was relaxed he was at ease with the thought that maybe Sasuke doesn't have to kill him. The thought alone turned his stomach, and the realization that he was dying struck him like a bolt of lighting. His eyes were blurry but he could still see the nurse or at least make out most of her, she had vibrant brown hair, with bangs that framed her face, her rounded glasses gave her a nerdy yet elegant appearance, her white cloak was vibrant and hung a little lower then usual but it was the norm in ninja hosptials, they needed more pockets just in case someone needed to be put down. It was a sad thought, that even doctors are ready to kill you, so was the world of ninja killed or be killed. He was no stranger to the pain of death, he has been through more then enough, that one day someone could be alive and the next they weren't, only the strong survived. People like him, people like Orochimaru and even Madara were wise enough to realize this, but knowledge usually leads to insanity, was he becoming insane? Itachi raised his hands to his face, these two things have seen more blood then his body could ever produce, they were both the judge and executioners, they weren't left and right but right and wrong, he liked it when they were wrong that way he didn't have to feel as guilty, but it was a rare occurrence and when they were in their right, other tended to lose theirs. It was amazing, and now they will eventually rest at his sides, when he was buried. Would he get a heroes burial? Would Konoha tell the people of the village the truth and he was to be remembered as a martyr. That was wishful thinking, and wishful thinking killed that guy he chopped to pieces, he thought being kind would save him from the horrors of the world, he was wrong.
"Mr. Ithika? Are you okay?" The smooth voice broke him out of his thoughts as he jumped off the doctor bed and made his way off, he made sure to drop a small bag with Ryo on the desk, obviously more then the cost of the visit but it didn't matter, money meant little to him before and it meant little to him now. He walked out the room, and snorted as he saw Kisame snoring on the couch outside his room. It was hard to believe a man so vicious could sleep so soundly, once again the world was cold, the shark man was just another factor of it.
"Let's go." His voice, he almost forgot how it sounded, would he miss it when he was gone? Probably not.
"Where are we going?" The man grunted still half asleep. Itachi shrugged.
"The orders from pain were to stay alert and look for the remaning Jinchuriki, we would do as he said but in the mean time I got people to visit, it is up to you if you want to come along or you could stay behind." Kisame frowned.
"What did the doc say? She was a hottie and she didn't faint when she saw you naked that must've been a plus." Itachi ignored the man in favor of staring at him. Kisame sighed, grabbing his sword.
"Fine, anyways I could tell you want to be alone. How about we meet back here in a year? I got business to handle too." The shark man asked as he strapped his sword to his back. Itachi nodded, as he made his way out. He didn't bother asking the man what he was going to do, nor did he feel the need to see him off, or share goodbyes. They were not friends, he had no friends his last friend was killed by the same man that ordered him to kill his clan. How ironic. He swore revenge for Shisui and in a way he accomplished it but it wasn't enough.
He found himself walking through the forest as the hospital was hidden deep in the trenches in the land of woods, it was for missing nins to get treatment, it wasn't the best but they took what they could get, the life of a man without a home was a lonely one. He stopped sensing Kisame hours ago, he must have concluded he wasn't going back to Konoha and went to do what ever it was he was going to do. The man was loyal, that was for sure but in due time every loyal dog would be slayed, even him but at least he chose his death.
The last thought brought him back to Naruto, he still remembered the blonde the first day he met him. He was different from the others, he wasn't a show off and when they faced each other he won but it didn't come easy. He always knew Naruto was hiding something, and he could tell Naruto wanted someone to tell, but he apparently didn't trust him. Which was smart, at that time he was loyal only to Konoha and something like what Naruto would've told him, would've been passed forward but it was alright. The last time they met was about three months ago, its funny how fast time passes when you're on the move. He heard about Naruto massacre during the trinity attack, that's what they called the new empire Trinity. Three places come from no where, saved by a divine god not older then himself, with power beyond what anyone could possibly believe, if he was in charge of Konoha he'll keep a close eye on them but he wasn't and would never be.
Naruto was now a target, and he isn't hiding anymore, so far three villages have tried to take down Trinity all of them humiliated and defeated. They call Naruto the 'one' maybe because when he enters the battle it's already over. But despised all these attempts Trinity has not waved any flags, they have not asked for any reparations, they have not turned their swords to anyone. They endured and they fought when provoked only, and Naruto was the weapon. They were still highly underesimated and for good reasons too. Konoha was now allies with the sand, Gaara was now the Kazekage and he felt he owed Konoha big time for saving him and so was the mist. And now that Naruto was gone all tensions between both villages has disappeared thanks to Minato. Talking about the yellow flash, he broke out of prison didn't take much one day he was there the next he wasn't. Some say the only reason he stayed there was because of guilt, but he knew better then that. He was waiting, but waiting for what was the reason?
His target Nami Namikaze was on a training trip with Jiraiya and Kushina, one of them being the person that trained the 'one'. He almost cracked a smile since when did he call people by their moniker? Must be the fact that he was dying. Yeah he could blame it on that. He sighed when he heard a branch snap, he didn't feel like killing anyone today, maybe they would just go away after he flared his chakra?
It wasn't the case if anything they came at him with more vigor, was he being hunted? No. Was he followed? That was a possibility he was so deep in thought, he might have slipped up a little. It didn't matter they were there.
It was the doctor. He slowly lowered his Kunai as she panted, she must have been running for awhile, but then again she was just a civilian.
"I pant, Finally pant, found you." She breathed in between breaths.
"What is it that you want?" The girl raised a hand as to signal him to shut up, that was new. She panted for a second before sitting on the ground before laying flat on her back. He left her there for a second but after a couple of minutes passed his patience was growing thin.
"You left too much money." With that she threw the bag a little lighter then before at him, he caught it easily.
"It was a tip."
"I don't need it." She responded before reaching into another pocket, this one was deep in her trench coat as she had to bend her knees to reach it. "There we go." With that she pulled out a scroll and opened it, she began to jot down some information before tossing it to him.
"That's part of the cure for your illness, the other part only my sister knows it." The girl said as she walked towards Itachi.
Itachi entertained the idea of tossing the scroll he had already accepted his death, and now she was giving him hope based on a sister who he does not know, nor has he ever heard of.
"And who might this be?" His curiosity got the better of him. She smiled.
"Her name is Karin, she's not my blood sister but we spent sometime together with Orochimaru, she was eventually found special and taken. That was years ago though, I haven't seen her since, but before that me and her use to work on all types of illneses together, yours was one of them... I'm sorry if I'm giving you false hope for all I know she could be dead." She said the last part silently, and Itachi debated on telling her fuck off but he always had a soft spot for people in need.
"What does she look like?" the girl looked at him suspiciously.
"Oh no you don't. The only reason I told you was for you could help me find her! You're Itachi Uchiha-" The next second there was a blade to her neck.
"How do you know that? Say the wrong answer and I'll slit your throat." The girl panicked for a second before mumbling.
"Orochimaru he had pictures of you, and he might have gave us a sample of your blood that I recognized..." Itachi frowned to broad.
"How is that possible?"
"My Kekkei Genkai, I could memorize more then just blood type, I could run into different bloods and remember each of them individually. That's why I make such a good doctor." The desperation in her voice was reaching new heights as her heart pumped considerably in her chest.
"How does your sister look?" The girl debated making her first point but seeing that Itachi was not someone to run circle around she responded.
"Her name is Karin, she has red hair, slim built, kind of crazy, very eccentric around strong people. Why have you heard of her?" Itachi felt the headache coming on, the one place he was trying to avoid. But if he doesn't go he'll die before Sasuke gets a chance to kill him.
"Thank you." With that he walked away.
"HEY! What about me! I want to see her! I'm tired of seeing new depressed faces that go into that shit hole! Please take me with you." Itachi sighed, as he stopped walking.
"I'll take you too her, and once we are there you are to ask her to heal me and I would be on my way. Understood?" The girl nodded.
"Lead the way." Itachi sighed, she could be in any of the three places and all of them were strategically far from one another, not to mention he's Itachi Fucking Uchiha wanted in all of the countries with extremly high bounties.
"Why have her get him?" Karin asked as she felt Naruto do another pushup under her, she was currently sitting on his back as she jotted down notes on her book. Her relationship with Naruto has grown where before he was more of a protector she could honestly say he was a close friend, someone she wishes to protect at all cost not like he needed any protection, over the last couple of months he has demonstrated just how powerful Nanashi powers has made him, that was another thing she has came to understand Naruto completely. Before he was so much of an enigma and it was because she was constantly looking for things that just wasn't there, Naruto was not one to plan things out as expensively as she thought, instead he just went with the flow and when things went wrong he was good at fixing them. He sites Alexander the Great as an inspiration, why would a man dead long ago from the western land even be relevant? She didn't know but he read tons of his books, his number one wish before he died was to visit the western world and go to the tomb of the emperor, but such things were impossible, people in the elemental Nations rarely left the elemental nations and when they did they never came back. For all they knew this man could be made up, a man of fantasy nobody dies undefeated, nobody. So far Naruto was undefeated, maybe it was luck. The last push up sent her a couple of feets into the air as Naruto finished and easily stood up. Karin sighed before closing her book and landing gracefully on her feet, passing Naruto the book.
"This is your itinerary for the day."
Naruto nodded before passing it back to her.
"I sent her because she's a good actor." Naruto replied as he walked over to his clothes and put them on, today was meeting day. Once a month he would meet with all his kings and queens. Which was basically Nanami, Zabuza and Koyuki. But some days lords would be present or they would get visits from foreign countries trying to join, those were the fun days since he didn't have to speak, since he was technically powerless. After all he owned no lands, nothing was in his name, and if they really wanted to challenge his position as emperor they had a vote system, but everyone had been happy with him civilians and ninjas alike. Which was good, but nothing last forever and if that day ever came he would relinquish control.
"They have been waiting for you for the last three hours." Karin advised as she continued to write things down on the notebook as they walked out of the park and onto the streets of Asgard which was full with a lot more people then before, apparently when your known for protecting civilians and not losing wars and not starting them you get a lot of people, who knew?
"We should get ice cream, I haven't had any in forever." Naruto said.
"The detour would make you fifteen minutes late, past your usual arrival time of course." Karin explained pivoting behind Naruto as he did an about face heading towards a ice cream stand.
"Who cares, I know they wont." Naruto explained.
"You are becoming a lot more aloof, is the power getting to your head?" Karin warned, Naruto chuckled as he paid the man for the vanilla cone, and passed Karin her strawberry one who took it giddily.
"I'm only 15." Naruto replied as he headed towards the tower, he acknowledged the people around him but cared little for the praise. Karin nodded as she licked her cone.
"True, but a very powerful fifteen year old and not just in strength, you are in control of all of this. Even Gaara does his own work and he's your age." Naruto shrugged.
"Yeah but he died once remember." Karin couldn't tell if it was joking or not, so she continued suckling on her ice cream. The next second her ice cream landed on her shirt as a man bumped into her, before he said sorry and continued walking.
"Naruto I think I need another ice cream." Karin said as she wiped the stain off her white shirt.
"Too late, let's go they're waiting for us." Naruto said as the next second they disappeared and reappeared inside the panoramic room of the tower. As always he found them already deep in conversation but stood up as soon as he arrived.
"Naruto-Sama!"Naruto smirked.
"I thought I told ya I'm not a fan of honorifics." Naruto said as he raised his hand and they all sat back down. He removed his trench coat and placed it over his chair before sitting down. "So talk to me, what do we got?"
Zabuza went first.
"The body armors that were delivered from snow are becoming faulty after all we haven't made more since the first batch and even though they are reusuable, I believe making more would be better, with better technology."
Naruto looked at Koyuki who responded, reading something off her paper.
"The budget for the body armor has already been used up, money doesn't grow on trees. We are going to deal with what we have until the next budget renews next year, that also goes for the ships that have not been finished, the glidders and also the tanks. It is becoming to expensive to do them all at the same time so I placed the most important in order. Also, the wood we have been receiving from Getsugakure has been taking to long to reach us, I want to know why that is." Koyuki said grilling Nanami who returned the glare.
"Wood doesn't grow on trees." She let that hang in the air. "Anyways, it takes time to cut down the trees why don't you send us a tree cutter that way you could have them work overnight, my people need to rest and eat and all the things they need to do to live, they can't just think cut wood. We also need to focus on our military even if my village is war neutral the last time someone attacked we got swept and if it wasn't for Naruto we would've been destroyed so toughen up princess and be cold for once, aren't you use to it ice queen."
Zabuza snickered at that, causing Koyuki anger to grow.
"We'll if you didn't veto my bill to add protective forcefield that would cover you from attacks, then we wouldn't be having this problem!" Nanami growled.
"With your prices for your 'favor' my people would be starving, and starving but 'safe' is just as bad!"
"Stop it." Naruto cut in, the room got silent. He looked around.
"Zabuza how many soldiers do you have?"
"ten thousand active, five thousand reserve and an average of two thousand new recruits a year."
"Send Nanami the reserve platoon, we expanded last year to accomodate the military so that fixes Nami fear of being wiped out. Which wont happen." Zabuza nodded.
"Koyuki." The princess nodded looking at her husband.
"Yes."
"Be nice." Naruto said, the princess sighed.
"Fine. I'll send her the technology for the shield and the wood cutters."
"YOU BITCH! You actually have one!"
Zabuza died laughing, Naruto just cracked a smile before the door to the room opened and the man that bumped into Karin earlier was thrown on the table.
"This guy was trying to break into the archive." Naruto raised an eyebrow.
"Remove the cloth from his mouth." Zabuza yanked it out. The man yelled in pain before looking around before setting his eyes on Naruto.
"How could we help you sir?" The man went to gather spit was froze in place, from the pressure he was feeling.
"Don't do that, what is it with you bad guys and spit? It doesn't do anything just makes me want to kill you and I really don't want too. The prison cells are all empty because we get spit on and we end up killing you. Zabuza has high score he has killed 120. Now the next words out of your mouth better be why are you here, who sent you and what bunk bed do you want top or bottom."
The man relaxed when the pressure decreased everyone around him didn't feel it, he's getting stronger. Last time he dropped everyone.
"I was a part of the first attack and the village that sent me has a message for you." Naruto nodded.
"We are going to destroy you, maybe not right now but we have spies lots of them, everywhere. You won't be able to sleep at night without one of us looking at you, we are going to destroy everything you stand for." Naruto nodded.
"So bottom bed?" The man cursed before braking out of his restraints and charging Naruto next second he was stabbed through the chest.
"Shit I missed, he'll be alive for a couple more minutes." Karin said as a chakra chain sunk back into her chest.
"Looks like Karin in the poll now, I thought for sure Zabuza was gonna kill him." Naruto said as he took out a book and wrote Karin name with a stripe next to it, so far Zabuza was leading followed by him then Nanami, followed by Karin and Koyuki was in last place but she didn't count but she betted money anyways so she was added.
"Could someone please remove him from here, he's starting to annoy me." Naruto said the guards quickly removed him from the desk and wiped it down. "Thank you."
"So what are we going to do about the spies he talked about?" Naruto frowned it seemed that Konoha still hasn't learned its lesson, I mean he blew up the fucking Hokage. She wasn't in it only a clone but he blew it the fuck up. How much more of a fucking threat could he send? Dammit!
"I blew up the fucking Hokage office right?" Zabuza nodded.
"That you did."
"I killed off their whole platoon right?"
"I mean I killed a couple..." Zabuza said.
"Shut up."
"I mean I literally wanted to blow Tsunade the fuck up." Naruto said as he thought it over.
"Wasn't she like your grandma figure or something." Naruto snorted.
"I only have one grandma and I tried to blow her up too." Naruto responded.
"What?" Nanami asked.
"Doesn't matter, didn't work she survived and kicked my ass." Naruto rubbed his butt. "I'mma have to visit Konoha."
"No your not." They said in unison including the guards who happened to be Haku and Yukimi.
Naruto nodded.
"Then what the fuck guys? They don't want to stop, I blew up the hokage, I let Sasuke escape I stopped all trading of Icha Icha from going there, I set up Minato and made him go to prison, I sent them Nanami dog, that blew up too."
"I was wondering were Bark went." Nanami said. Naruto sighed, before turning around and watched the ocean a couple of warships lined up on the shore.
"I got it."
"No."
"I hate democracies." Naruto mumbled before turning back around.
"Then what do you suppose?" Koyuki took the lead.
"We will send out a piece accord, and offer money."
"Boo"
"Anyways, plus I believe its not Tsunade doing this since she has still not raised your bounty. I think its from Konoha but another person in power." Naruto scuffed.
"Wait till we find them, I'mma take Karin dog and send it to them and let it blow up." Naruto contemplated. Karin sighed, Naruto was true to his word, she actually liked Whiskers.
"So what else are we going to talk about?" Naruto asked. They all looked at each other.
"The emperor elections..." Naruto sighed.
"Those again? Who here decided to make it twice a year? Fucking bitch I hate campaigning." Naruto argued.
"You don't even put up a flyer you just do some heroic shit and they vote for you." Naruto shrug.
"Not my fault you're not heroic enough." Zabuza shrugged.
"Wouldn't fit me anyways, you're just a figure with a head." Naruto shrugged.
"You're just mad you got paperwork." Koyuki sighed there they go again.
"Anyways, you're pretty much still in the lead so we decided to stop elections until you die or something, since none of us want the position and we're the only ones allowed to run for it, well until we train others or retire." Naruto nodded.
"What if I don't wanna do it?" They all laughed.
"You have no say in it. Now sign this paper for we could sent it to Konoha, and not with the exploding ink." Naruto sighed.
"Fine. Let's go Karin I still have jury duty right?" The girl nodded.
"Now I could catch up with Zabuza." With that he was gone.
"He's getting more and more careless." Zabuza started. Koyuki nodded.
"We're going to have to address it eventually, he's the emperor and without him to scare off the other villages we're easy pickings. The only thing that stopped Tsunade from starting a war was Jiraiya, and even then it was to much. We need to monitor his behavior more and make sure he stops making brash decisions. That could affect our countries."
Nanami nodded. "We'll give him time."
"How much time though?"
Orochimaru smirked as he watched Sasuke finish off another platoon. He still didn't kill them which was a shame, that just meant they were his to toy around with later. Sasuke has improved considerably since he got here, he was a sponge and he didn't need things to be explained more then once, if he kept that up he'll be stronger then Itachi in a couple of years, which wasn't a bad thing after all he was technically training his future body.
"That's enough Sasuke." Orochimaru smirked when Sasuke finished off the rest of the platoon, it was a welcoming sight but if he kept that up he'll be running low on man power.
Sasuke frowned as a piece of his robe fell to the floor, apparently they weren't as useless as he thought they'll be. Turning his eyes to Orochimaru he fought the urge to smirk, such a fool, he was giving him the training he needed and eventually that same training will end him but that was far into the future for now he had to be obedient. He made his way for the exit.
"Not so fast Sasuke-kun, I have another assignment for you. I think you will find it quite satisfying really." Sasuke continued his trek for the exit, the snakes assignment were always interesting but he cared little he didn't come to sound to do missions, he was not their shinobi.
"You might run into Itachi if your lucky." Now that was interesting. Sasuke stop midway. "I'm glad that got your attention, anyways you will accompany Kabuto to find one of my field medic that got away from me, her powers in healing are unmatched except maybe by Karin but shes out of reach. Last I heard from her she was walking trough the land of woods with your brother as her bodyguard, the mission is to bring her back to me dead or alive, although I would prefer alive. The second part of the mission is obvious. You'll leave immediately." Sasuke smirked before walking out and leaving the snake in the dark room.
"Hello Sasuke-kun." Kabuto said handing Sasuke a bag. Sasuke took the bag and continued his trek.
"Not one for conversation are you." He didn't get a reply. Kabuto smirked. "I wonder how fast Itachi will beat you up this time." Kabuto smirked when he still didn't get a reply.
"I'm betting on four minutes, I mean you could barely beat Nami and she's nowhere near his level. I don't even think you could beat Naruto." Kabuto blocked a kick before pulling out a sendon to block a Kunai strike, easily overpowering the kid, he tried a high kick that connected but faded through the kids body.
'Genjutsu but when?' Next second his world turned to pain as a sword pinned him to the wall by the arm. The image distorded before he found himself still infront of the door with Sasuke placing the bag over his back.
"Let's go." With that Sasuke walked away. Kabuto frowned.
'He's getting really good with his Sharingan, I didn't even feel when he caught me.' Yanking the sword out of his arm he tossed it to the side.
Sasuke frowned as he thought about Kabuto words. How fast would he lose to Itachi at his current level he wasn't even stronger then Naruto. Pushing those thoughts to the side he focused on the mission. Bring back the target dead or alive.
Itachi sipped on his tea, they weren't able to make it out the forest before nightfall so he decided to make camp. Not that he was in a rush to get the girl to where she needed to go, it was just ninja training 101 get out of the woods as quick as possible, the chances of being ambushed was high and it always got dark quickly but hearing the girl complain about being tired was working on his nerves, and that took a lot.
"Goddam it! I'm going to have the biggest blisters on my feet from all this walking! Like jeez, did you even take into consideration the fact that I can't travel like you?" The girl said as she rubbed her feet. Itachi didn't bother responding instead he focused on the broth he placed on the fire, he wasn't that hungry but if a fight were to brake out it'll be better for him to be at full strength especially with all the news he got yesterday.
They sat in relative silence both of them having nothing to say to each other it was obvious they didn't relate in anyway. To Itachi the nurse was an open book and to the nurse Itachi was a walking bag of secrets. They both had their fill before they made themselves comfortable on the floor of the jungle, there was a cold breeze like usual in the land of woods it was hot in the morning and chilly at night. It didn't seem to bother Itachi as he sat down looking at the stars.
"Aren't you cold?" Itachi shook his head.
"We'll okay." She tucked her lab coat tighter around her body as she continued to stare into the blue yonder. She snuck a couple of glances at Itachi it was an enjoyable sight, Naruto usually sent her on these types of mission, how he got the information only god knows, when Karin came to save her with him she almost confused him for a psycho but now she could see theirs a method to his madness. Before Itachi would not meet with him without a fight, now they will meet and Itachi will think twice about wasting energy on anything that is not Sasuke meaning the more talking Naruto could do. A fight between the two would be interesting to watch, who would win? It didn't matter her job was done, Itachi will lead her to them, he must be in a rush since he's heading straight for Asgard. It didn't matter to her, the quicker she got back the quicker she could be promoted to lady.
"If you do not stop staring at me, I might actually contemplate killing you." It was a lie of course, he needed her but she didn't need all her limbs. Tsh, Kisame must be rubbing off on him.
"I didn't think you were the self-conscious type." He didn't find it funny. "I'm going to sleep. you should get some too, you need it a lot more then I do." With that she leaned back and laid down, staring back up at the moon.
'I wonder what the guys are up too.'
Naruto stood above the main building as he set his eyes deep across the ocean. Uzu was in that direction, for some reason he couldn't get his old home out of his mind, and it wasn't like he had many connections there. He had his teachers, his tutors his mom and his grandfather. He made little friends a common occurrence when you have what others don't, he did not see wealth as a virtue but more of a need. He did not care for money, it came and it went and it burned and it faded over time the idea of paying for something that you needed to live was stupid to him, but somehow power and money always came hand in hand, and theres nothing people hate more then being less powerful then someone else.
"Are you done crying over a crater or should I come back later?" Naruto smirked as he looked at Karin, he jumped off the antenna and landed besides her.
"You think me a friend?" Naruto asked, the way it was spoken sent chills down her body, this was not the Naruto from earlier this was dark, this was foreign and most of all this was dangerous Naruto.
"N-no I-I Mea-n."
"It matters little, where are we going?" Naruto said as he made his trek past his secretary. Karin took a couple of breaths before following him.
"We will be heading to the land of goats only thirty minutes away, we have heard rumors of them planning to attack us along with the land of dogs. Both of them are less then weak and will fail. If I were you-"
"You are not. Tell me Karin how many nations have we attacked?"
"None, sir." Naruto nodded.
"How many nations have attacked us?" Karin stood silent.
"You could see where I'm going with this, last time I defended Asgard three hundred of my men died, thirty four civilians. When I went to save Koyuki four hundred of my men were killed. And both times I did nothing, I absorbed the pain and nursed it myself and let the empire suffer alone." Karin stood quiet as she listened to Naruto, this was a whole other side of him she had not met yet.
"They are picking away at us." Naruto paused. "They are weakening us little by little, our lives mean little to them. They don't believe we have what it takes to strike back or cause any harm, so now we are pegged as weak. Are we weak Zabuza?" The swordsman snorted.
"Ask me again when I die." Naruto smirked.
"Are we weak Nanami?" The girl frowned.
"Like hell we are." Naruto turned his head to look at Koyuki, who only offered him a nod.
"Round up the troops, meet at the front gate in 15."
Naruto stood on the roof before sighing, the next moment he was in his room. Walking over to his dresser he picked up Zaga, strapping it around his neck.
"Do you actually believe that by killing off two villages our strength will be validated?" Koyuki asked as she sat on their bed. Naruto frowned.
"What would you do?" Koyuki thought about it for a second.
"I don't know, but not that."
"I don't know is not an answer, we have been living life by the day instead of thinking about tomorrow."
"What about tomorrow? Tomorrow there will be two villages gone and we will be looked at as even more of a threat."
"You have that much faith in us?" Koyuki snorted.
"This isn't a joke, but yes I do have that much faith in you." Naruto frowned.
"I am only one person, my grandfather tried to do it alone and failed. My mother tried to do it alone and failed, the Yondaime tried to do it alone and failed. I am not alone I got you, Zabuza, Nanami, Haku we are a team and we have an even bigger team that is willing to follow us anywhere. So if you have faith in me, then have faith in this." Naruto said pointing out the window where Shinobi jumped from house to house to reach the main gate.
Koyuki sighed before standing up and walking over to him, placing her hand on his cheek.
"Come back a winner, or don't come back at all Alexander." Naruto nodded, before she kissed him. "I'll be waiting for you." The next moment he was gone.
Naruto looked over his men, they stretched as far as the eye could see. He raised his hands and they instantly went quiet. He was letting his presence be felt as he used his sekai to intensify the pull the earth had on them.
"I am not afraid of an army of lions led by sheep. I am afraid of an army of sheep led by a lion. Let's go hunting." With that he turned around and led the army out the door.
"How long until we get there?" Naruto asked as Haku came to his right side.
"ETA 20 minutes, we already did a check. They have not noticed." Naruto nodded.
"Good, Haku you will take half the man and go to the land of dogs. Your mission is kill everything." Haku gulped but nodded.
"Go."
Haku nodded before raising her hand and forming three signs. The army split into two before Haku nodded and they banked to the left as Naruto continued straight.
"Was that wise having Haku go with them? I am the King I think the men seeing me in action would be beneficial to the moral." Zabuza said as he ran besides Naruto.
"No, Haku must learn to kill without questioning in order for her to be part of the regime." Zabuza nodded.
"You're faith in her is that deep?" Naruto nodded.
"She has the potential to become emperor after I get tired of it." Zabuza nodded.
"When will that be?"
"It doesn't matter."
"HEADS UP!" Naruto frowned when he saw a barrage of Kunai flying towards them. Jumping into the air he went through three signs.
Raising his hands.
Shinra!
The explosion was strong enough to blow away every single tree in front of them giving them a clear path to the village. The next moment Naruto was back at the front of the line before he stopped. Everyone followed suit.
"What got cold feet?" Zabuza asked. Naruto shook his head.
"No, this isn't going to work. This is not going to be a war, this is going to be total annihilation. Get back." They did so without question.
Naruto breathed in and out. Before placing his hand in front of his before a single orb appeared, the wind began to howl as it pushed the trees. The shinobi channeled chakra to their leg as the power surged.
Naruto concentrated before the ball began to float into the air, spider webs began to appear under his feet before the ball went floating forward and it disappeared into the night. The night went silent.
BOOOOOOOOOM!
The night was illuminated with an explosion.
Konoha
Tsunade frowned as she watched the explosion in the distance.
"SHIZUNE!"
IWA
Onoki cursed as he saw the blast before the candle he was using in his room turned off.
"Get me Diamond."
MIST
Mei frowned as she saw the waves crash onto the shores as the explosion went off.
"A warning."
SUNA
Gaara frowned as he saw the explosion from the top of a building.
'Him.'
AME
"It seems little Naru has gotten tired of their shit." Obito chirped as he sipped his tee.
"It does not matter, we got him beat." Obito looked at the Deva path.
"If you say so Nanashi."
Sasuke stopped walking as he looked into the distance. "No way."
Kabuto frowned. "What's wrong?"
Nami stopped mid kick as the explosion went off.
"That was."
Minato nodded. "I know." with that he disappeared in a yellow flash.
Jiraiya frowned as he broke away from the lady on his bed and went to the window.
"Sage Mode."
Naruto lowered his hand and with it came down the barrier that he set up around them. The markings around his eyes faded and his Sekai faltered. Everything around them was gone and the light that was there before in the distance was gone, Naruto didn't flinch as a object came flying at him from the direction of the village it was an arm, a baby arm. He stared at it for a second before it turned to dust.
"That should get the message through, The Trinity is ready." The Shinobi behind him roared.
Haku frowned as she was dripping in blood, none of it was hers. They had killed everyone, and the explosion from earlier let her believe so did Naruto.
"The trinity is ready." Haku said as she looked back at her men, who roared in approval.
The Kyuubi smirked as he stirred in Naruto stomach.
"I think he actually might deserve my help."
"A demon helping a human how fun." The Kyuubi roared.
"I forgot you were still here, when me and him merge I might tell him to kill you." The man smirked.
"Shut up, I'm all he got. You see that? That was me, I created it." The man said as his Sekai glowed. THe Kyuubi frowned.
"That may be but your dead."
Done.
