Chapter 15-Tsunade troubles
In the casino village of: Tanzaku no Gai, there was only the sounds of a slot machines lever being jerked downwards, the cash machines spat out various amount of rewards to the winner of the prizes. Only one machine was not the one to produce the welcome of the operator winning the prize, this machine was occupied by a busty buxom blonde knockout, who wore a lazily closed green kimono, that threatened to split her bust out for the world to see, not that they'll be seeing it for long as she would send them flying another state, when she caught you. This woman was: Senju Tsunade, Granddaughter of the Shodaime Hokage: Senju Hashirama and his wife Princess Uzumaki-Senju Mito, beside her was another beauty: Kato Shizune, Tsunade first and last student, as well as the last link to Tsunade late love: Kato Dan, whom was trying to get Tsunade to come with her to see the sight outside of the casino and not having much luck.
After not succeeding in convincing her to accompany her, Shizune simply decides to order another refill for Tsunade's Sake bottle and then headed to ruins on the villages outskirts. Outside of the village, team Naruto had caught up with the one armed Sasuke, who was out cold from exhaustion and not knowing why he was there, Naruto flung the dead weight on to the back of his summons and then they continued onto the gambling village, but not before sending back a report of finding Sasuke, his illegal orders from the civilian council and asking if he'd authorized promotion of the teme to Chunin.
While flying, Fujikujaku surrounded Sasuke in healing energy, causing him to rise like a zombie from the dead, though he was far from undead. Once he was fully up, Sasuke looked around wondering why he was moving backwards, while he legs weren't moving, 'What?' he thought, before being broken from his thoughts by a familiar voice, "So the zombie lives!" causing Sasuke to turn around and find: Uzumaki Naruto, who then said, "You have a lot of explaining to do when we return Teme," in a tone that conveyed an order, bristled Sasuke commanded, "What are you doing here? Dobe," but it went unanswered.
Back with Tsunade, where finally her machine had finally spat out a lump sum of money, signaling her victory and all it did was make her frown in despair, before called, "Shizune, we're leaving," over to the brunette who was paying for hers and Tsunades drink. Outside of the village, Fujikujaku landed in a small clearing off the main road, where her riders had gotten off with one however bound with ropes and a silencing seal on his throat, once they had landed, the bound one was then tied to a tree and then the team headed into the town. Entering the town, Naruto and his team immediately sort out accommodations for the night, which they found in short order, before heading out to begin their search.
The search took very little time, as with 2 Chakra sensors and the Byakugan, they located Tsunade in short order, but her company was left to be desired: Orochimaru and Kabuto, it looked as though he was trying to curry her into helping with healing him. Sensing Orochimaru, Naruto without hesitations jumped to the air and commanded, "Guyver," before flying off to the battle Orochimaru.
At the sight of the ruins, Tsunade was standing stock still as she regards the person in front of her, her old teammate: Orochimaru, whom had just asked if she could heal his arms, which held a stone grey color and the texture of a parched desert, which he said was from a botched experiment on himself. Before she could give her answer, an odd sound reached the ears of the 4 present and they look up to see a figure swooping down with a fist full of black energy.
Punching the ground between where the 4 were, Naruto sent a shock wave of energy causing them to fly back, hitting the walls behind them and before they could get their bearings, shot off again towards both Orochimaru and Kabuto, cloths lining them threw the wall. After the cloths line, Naruto a pairing of kicks to Kabuto knocking him cold, before focusing on Orochimaru, as he had brought himself back to reality and stomp a foot to the ground, which then burrowed into the ground and attempted to kick Naruto in the back. Naruto's motion sensor kick in to high, reacting to the foot that had burst threw the ground behind and he grabbed the appendage, then he wrenched on it, causing Orochimaru to be pull threw the floor and then lasso thrown into the ground.
After the lasso throw, Naruto followed up with a full body grapple, combined with a suplex and finished with a dragon throw, that sent him flying threw the air, before Orochimaru body turned to mud and splattered on a nearby roof, showing that Orochimaru had substituted with a mud clone, while the really Orochimaru had melted out of the ground, performing a long string to Hand seals, and then slammed his hands to the ground, with the command, "Kuchiyose no Jutsu: Edo Tensei," bring forth those on death door, this time it was the bargaining chips he was going to used against Tsunade: Senju Nawaki and Kato Dan. When Naruto saw the dead been raised, Naruto cocked his eye and asked, "Can you not fight your battles on your own?" before flipping threw some hand signs of his own for a jutsu he can only use while armored, "Yoroi Ninpo: Andeddo no Fukkatsu no Jutsu," intone Naruto as he then proceed to place his hands on the resurrected men and caused their skin to returned to a living color, signifying their true return.
Feeling his control slip, Orochimaru cursed and watched as his revived minion were truly brought back to life, before he could even get a command in and then they awoke and turned towards him. Watching this, Tsunade was at an awe and angry for what she was seeing, angry for Orochimarus disrespect of her loves grave and awe at how the armored being was able to revive them.
After seeing his final card take a hammer blow, Orochimaru believed it was time to cut his losses and retreat with the still unconscious Kabuto. Seeing the snake leave, Naruto then turned to Tsunade and asked, "Are you: Senju Tsunade?" gaining the attention of both Dan and Nawaki, whom both ask, "Tsunade-chan/Neesan?"
Hours later, Naruto introduced himself and his arriving team, before handing a scroll from the Hokage to Tsunade, with read:
[Dear Tsunade-chan,
I find myself in need of your council, I am old and ready to retire once again, and I wish for either you or someone of your suggestion to take my place as Hokage. Please give it some thought, if I don't name a trustworthy Hokage as my replacement, the council would choose for me and I fear it would end up spelling the end of the Honor that Konoha had gain since its creation.
On a side note, we also need your medical expertise in the recovery of several shinobi and civilian those were caught in between an invasion led by: Orochimaru,
Yours Sincerely: Sarutobi Hiruzen]
