====The Same Night at the Fire Capital in the Daimyo's Palace====
Two blondes are standing in front of a closed door and could hear small sobs from the room.
"She didn't come out from her room after the funeral..." said Arisa.
"She is in a complete breakdown... I guess that's how you feel when someone took your family from you..." said Naruto.
"You lost yours the day you born... I also lost my family at a young age... and now she lost because of a madman... you know what she needs now?" asked Arisa.
"A push to make her some back..." said Naruto.
"She is the next daimyo, so she needs it now... you and she have some weird relation I can't understand... I know you can break her out from here so go to her..." said Arisa. Naruto nodded and disappeared in a flash and entered in Rin's room to see the future daimyo is a crying mess because of her deceased father.
"Naruto... please go away... I don't want you to see me vulnerable... please..." Rin sobbed and spoke.
"People cry Hime-sama... you are not a Kami that you can't be vulnerable... you are also a human... they cry when they lose something or someone precious..." said Naruto.
"Then what are you? I never saw you cry for once..." said Rin.
"I also cry Hime-sama... I also feel sadness, grief, anger and hatred but these emotions also made me stronger not vulnerable... they made me to train more so next time I won't feel them... next time I won't feel them..." Naruto went to Rin and placed his hand on her shoulder, "Your Tou-san maybe no more but his will is still living inside you... now it's your choice if you let that will die or burn the more will raise from its ashes..."
Rin looked at Naruto with watery eyes then went towards him and hugged him tightly, "But I can't... I'm feeling weak... I feel vulnerable when you are not around... what do I do?"
"You are lying... you never felt vulnerable even without me... you are one of the strongest women I have ever seen... you will be the daimyo Hi no Kuni (Land of Fire)... you have to put all of your strength together then I'm here to help you wherever you find difficulties... remember people will only help you if you want to overcome your difficulties but not overcome by difficulties..."
"Will you help me if I ask you?" asked Rin.
"Of course... why not? That why I'm here..." Naruto said with a smile.
"Then please give me your baby and marry me... you are the best man I have ever met... I see my father in you... a perfect ruler... after marrying me you can be the daimyo of Hi no Kuni (Land of Fire)... it's not I'm running away... I'm giving it to someone who can do it better than me..." said Rin.
Naruto was stunned for a moment before speaking, "But Hime-sama marriage not some joke... you can't make decisions of life this fast..."
"I'm not making this decision now... you're fine among the finest man I have ever seen... we have spent all 3 years together and helped each other... everyone in this palace loves you not like Konoha where people don't understand you... I'm sure Hokage-dono won't disagree with this... she wants you to be happy and you were happy here and you will always be happy here..." said Rin.
While Naruto loved Rin with all his heart, she was a noble and Konoha would become extremely annoyed, not to mention all the political stuff, he sighed and patted Rin's head, "I'm very happy to hear that you care about me but I'm not sure about this... We are still young for this... I don't want your life to be ruin because of me someday since you also care about me... I still don't know what I feel... I loved Nier and then she told me that she took advantage of me and that she never loved me... now I don't know how to trust someone when they say the love me... please think about me..."
"Then let's give it a try Naruto... please at least try..." said Rin as she loved up at him. Naruto looked into her eyes and saw the sincerity in her eyes, Rin then locked her lips with his. When Rin broke the kiss, she looked at him pleadingly but before she could open her mouth Naruto spoke.
"Taiyō is not my biological Shisutā(sister) but a clone created from my cells with my parents... Danzo created her to subdue me... like they say a woman can be a doom of a man or can take a man to his peak... in the forest of death I confronted her... and we fought to subdue each other, and, in the end, I subdued her, but I didn't do it with her... though in the end she thought of me as her lover but Mikoto put her in a genjutsu to give her false memories as my Shisutā since things were becoming complicated... I shared my bed with Nier once... now you know my secrets... I told you those things which only Kaa-san knows..." explained Naruto.
"You want me to think you are a womanizer?" questioned Rin., then there was a long silence between them and both were waiting to get some answer but seeing no one spoke Rin started again, "I don't care..."
"What?" Naruto said in shock and confusion.
"I don't care even if you spent nights with another woman in the past but if you don't love them... I don't care about that... you will go to Konoha and confront Nier... I thought of her as a nice girl and after 3 years without you around she came to a realization what she want... if she loves you then I won't come in your life anymore... even if I want you I don't want to take your happiness from you... if she rejects you then I will take you and make you mine for whatever I have to do..."
Naruto chuckled, getting a confused expression out of Rin, "I don't think you understand what I mean, Hime-sama."
"What?" Rin shouted.
"I no longer love Nier... I got over her a long time ago," the Naruto adorn a light blush and look sheepish, "I actually fell for you over these past 3 years."
Rin looked into his eyes, "Then can we try?" Naruto nodded then Rin hugged him more tightly resting her head on his chest. Without hearing anything from the room the other blonde went to her room to sleep, the day was more tiring than she thought it would be. Naruto also drifted into sleep not knowing what is going on in the shinobi continent.
====At The Akatsuki Hideout====
"Hidan and Kakuzu... capture Nibi tomorrow at any cost..." ordered Pain.
"As you wish Shuryō-sama..." said Kakuzu.
"Tobi already captured the Sanbi while Kisame got the Nanabi..." said Pain.
"What! How the hell did Tobi capture the Sanbi on his own?" though Deidara's question was never answered.
"Sasori and Deidara... tomorrow we will have intruders... your job is to dispose them..." ordered Pain.
"Understood..." said Sasori.
"After disposing them you two will go after the Yonbi without wasting time..." Pain told.
"What about you Shuryō-sama? Are you going after the Hachibi or the Kyuubi?" asked Deidara.
"Me and Tenshi (angel) will destroy Konoha tomorrow to for Kyuubi..." said Pain.
"It's a shame that I can't be there to see their demise..." Kakuzu said.
"How are you going to deal with Itachi?" asked Kisame.
"All is settled..." said Pain. At the corner of Oyugakure no Sato (The Hidden Hot Water Village) two figures stood facing them in the darkness.
"What do I owe you brat that you came to me?" asked Jiraiya.
"I came here to murder you Jiraiya of the Sannin..." said Tobi.
"You are still some 50 years too young to think of killing me you brat..." said Jiraiya.
"Very well... before Danzo died, I got something from him..." Tobi made some hand seals then slammed his hands on ground, "Kuchiyose: Edo Tensei (Summoning: Impure World Reincarnation)..." in front of him a single casket rose, and its door fell revealing someone whom even Jiraiya feared. The man had a black outfit and red armor over it, the person had long brown-black hair with a Konoha hitai-ate tied on his forehead. Much to Jiraiya's fear the person opened his eyes revealing his eyes to have purple rings.
"Shodai-sama... how does he have the Rinnegan?" Jiraiya gulped knowing that man is dangerous even if he uses only 50% of his power then the Rinnegan.
"I think I came back from dead... damn that Tobirama's jutsu... who are you, young man?" asked Hashirama.
"I'm Jiraiya, the toad sage of Mt. Myoboku and a shinobi of Konoha... I'm a student of the Sandaime Hokage, Sarutobi Hiruzen..." said Jiraiya.
"You are Saru's pupil... seems like many years passed after my death... who is the current Hokage? How is Tsunade doing?" asked Hashirama.
"Uzumaki Kushina is now the Godaime Hokage... Tsunade is now the head of Konoha's medical division and the best medic after you..." said Jiraiya.
"An Uzumaki... that's interesting..." mused Hashirama.
"Enough talking... mow kill Jiraiya..." Tobi did one more hand seal and Hashirama's eyes darken with sage markings appearing on his face.
"Mokuton: Idaina Jumoku no Shutsugen (Wood Release: Great Forest Emergence)..." Hashirama clasped his hands and giant trees sprouted from the ground going towards Jiraiya.
Jiraiya stood there quietly and the jutsu hit him, but he vanished in a smoke revealing he was a Kage Bushin (Shadow Clone),"Doton: Yami Numa (Earth Release: Swamp of the Underworld)..." Jiraiya came out from hiding with his new features of sage mode.
"Gakidō..." Hashirama said and absorbed the chakra of the swamp to stop it before it could swallow him.
"Senpō: Ōdama Rasengan (Sage Art: Big Ball Rasengan)..." Jiraiya lunged towards Hashirama with a Rasengan.
"Gakidō..." Hashirama said again and absorbed Rasengan's chakra then grabbed Jiraiya's hand, "Shuradō..." two more hands came out which changed into cannons aiming at Jiraiya.
"What the hell!" shouted Jiraiya, before he could do anything two lasers blasted on him and he coughed violently.
"Mokuton: Jumoku no Han'ei no Sokubaku (Wood Release: Tree Flourishing Bind)..." trees grew from under Jiraiya blinding him.
"How strong is he? I can't even match up with him..." said Jiraiya.
"He is the Shinobi no Kami (God of Shinobi) for nothing... even if he is not at his full strength, he can destroy us... his senjutsu chakra is another level..." said Fukasaku.
"Damn it I know... I don't know how to counter him..." said Jiraiya.
"Ningendō..." Hashirama grabbed Jiraiya's soul is tried to pull it out, but an earth wall rose between him and Jiraiya to stop him.
Meanwhile Jiraiya disappeared from the binding showing it was another Bushin (Shadow Clone). Hashirama looked down and the ground broke revealing Jiraiya who tried to grab Hashirama but Hashirama just side stepped and tried to kick the toad sage.
Jiraiya saw the kick and grabbed Hashirama's leg to throw him far away, "Katon: Karyū Endan (Fire Release: Fire Dragon Flame Bullet)..." he shot a giant stream of fire towards his enemy.
After being throw away he managed to land on his feet, "Mokuton: Mokuton: Mokujōheki (Wood Release: Wood Locking Wall)..." saving Jiraiya from getting burned he jumped over and saw Jiraiya, "Tendō: Shinra Tensei..."
"That jutsu..." Jiraiya knew what that does but his reaction time was slow he got blown away far from Hashirama, "The Rinnegan was the Rikudō Sennin's (Sage of Six Path's) doujutsu means those eyes can control the six realms... God Realm: Tendō, Demon Realm: Shuradō, Human Realm: Ningendō, Ghost Realm: Gakidō, Hell Realm: Jigokudō, Animal Realm: Chikushodō..."
"We have seen what 4 of them since now... the Animal Realm must be for summoning animals, but we don't know what the Hell Realm can do..." Fukasaku said.
"Maybe bring back deeds... since hell sounds like that..." said Jiraiya.
"Maybe you are right..." said Fukasaku.
"Fukasaku-sama if I die here then go back to Konoha and make Naruto or Taiyō next toad sage..." said Jiraiya.
"You will not die here... go fight..." Fukasaku practically ordered.
"Yeah right..." Jiraiya didn't need to go anywhere but he found Hashirama coming towards him at a very great speed.
"Mokuton Hijutsu: Jukai Kōtan (Wood Release: Secret Technique: Nativity of a World of Trees)..." Hashirama created a giant forest to strangle Jiraiya in it.
"Doton: Yami Numa (Earth Release: Swamp of the Underworld)..." Jiraiya's jutsu drowned the forest in it saving him and prepared his next jutsu.
"Tendō: Banshō Ten'in (Universal Pull)..." Hashirama pulled Jiraiya towards him and readied his other hand with a black rod.
Jiraiya smirked knowing what he has to do for the pulling jutsu, "Hari Jizō (Needles Jizō)..." Jiraiya turned his hair into needles and stabbed Hashirama everywhere which made the Mokuton (Wood Release) user stopped his jutsu in the middle, "Senpō: Goemon (Sage Art: Goemon)..." the combined jutsu of Jiraiya, Fukasaku, and Shima made Hashirama's body disappear in the fiery wave, "He is too strong..." Jiraiya panted as almost his chakra drained for using jutsus, he quickly turned back to deliver a kick to whoever was behind of him.
Hashirama grabbed Jiraiya's leg elbowed the knee to break it. Jiraiya dropped into his knees with his broken knee. Hashirama came and about to place his hand on Jiraiya's head, but something hit.
"Rasengan..." Jiraiya slammed the spiraling jutsu at Edo Hashirama's gut and took out his right side completely.
Hashirama looked down at Jiraiya and said, "Tendō: Shinra Tensei..."
"ARRGHH!" Jiraiya was slammed in the ground with a pain expression.
"Tendō: Shinra Tensei..." Hashirama did the jutsu 5 times to bury Jiraiya more and more in the ground.
"I can't stand up... anymore... it's over... for me..." said Jiraiya.
"Jiraiya-chan let me teleport you to Mt. Myoboku then at Konoha... Tsunade-chan can heal you..." said Fukasaku.
"No Fukasaku-sama... it's my end and I don't want you to ruin it... I have another jutsu to perform so please get put from here or it will not work..." said Jiraiya.
"What is this jutsu you are talking about Jiraiya-chan?" asked Fukasaku.
"Sorry Fukasaku-sama can't say to let the enemy to hear it..." in the meantime Hashirama came and picked up Jiraiya by grabbing his head, "Please go away..." Jiraiya said and started to do a series of hand seal.
"If it's your last wish then I will follow it..." Fukasaku disappeared with Shima who was silent for the whole time.
"Jiraiya of the Sannin you lived more than you need to... now die..." said Tobi.
"Ningendō..." Hashirama started to pull out Jiraiya's soul out of his body.
"No... not yet..." Jiraiya completed the hand seals, "Fūinjutsu: Shiki Fūjin (Sealing Technique: Dead Demon Consuming Seal)..." Jiraiya enchanted the jutsu name as his seal disappeared from Hashirama's hand and pulled out from his body by the Shinigami behind it, seeing the user's desperation the Shinigami quickly put his hand on Jiraiya's gut giving him the seal then stretched to Hashirama's soul grabbing it.
The moment the Shinigami grabbed his soul he came into his senses, "I see the Shinigami... you use the Shiki Fūjin (Dead Demon Consuming Seal) to conceal me... it will kill you..."
"I know but I have lived for this day... I just have one regret that Tsunade never accepted my love after trying for 40 years..." Jiraiya smiled, "Even though I have many regrets... I let my student die then one of my students became a criminal whom I can't confront to beat him up until he thinks straight... I let my godson live alone for 12 years making him mad at me... I'm just a failure and sometimes I'm proud of it..."
"You are a very good man... I can tell that... even in the face of your death you're smiling... I hope someday somebody pulls you out from the Shinigami's stomach... I'm truly sorry..." with that Hashirama's soul went into the Shinigami sealing it and the body turned into ashes.
Jiraiya dropped down still smiling taking his last breath and thought, "I hope you can forgive me... Naruto... the gutsy ninja... please forgive this failure... you too Minato and Kushina... Orochimaru, Tsunade... thank you... Sarutobi-sensei you too..."
"Even in the face of his death he never feared... what will you for respect even after death? your death is vain though... your sacrifice won't for anything better to anyone..." Tobi then left with a Kamui.
====Meanwhile====
Tsunade is currently drinking her favorite sake at her luxury apartment with a gloomy look seeing something in her hands, "I won the lucky draw..." Tsunade said and felt a hand pat her back for a moment and unknown to her a teardrop escaped her eye.
Orochimaru was currently doing some research but felt a hand pat his back and the test-tube in his hand slipped and fell, breaking it.
"Orochimaru-sama, something wrong?" asked Kabuto, "You are looking distracted which never happens in the middle of your research..."
"Something bad will happen... or has already happened... we need to go to Konoha..." ordered Orochimaru.
"There is still sometime before sunrise... we will go after that..." said Kabuto.
Naruto was currently sleeping peacefully but he felt some cold sweat over his face, and he suddenly woke up huffing slightly. Naruto looked at the end of the bed and he was sure he felt a silhouette standing there looking at him with a sad smile, "I'm sure I felt someone, and their presence was very familiar..." he ran his hand over his sweaty face and removed the sweat then looked at the palm, "I have a very bad feeling about something..." Naruto looked outside at the first sunrays of dawn.
Minato suddenly clutched his chest as he felt as those something hand ripped his heart out.
"There is something wrong..." said Kyuubi suddenly.
Minato turned to the giant vixen, "What?"
"I feel as those someone precious to Naruto-kun has been taken from this world..." said Kurama, "I think you felt it as well... Yondaime..." Minato turned around and held his chest tighter.
====Konoha: Hokage Tower====
A lone figure with red hair was sleeping peacefully at the desk of the Hokage, she is Uzumaki Kushina, the Godaime Hokage of Konoha. Her sleep was disturbed when a poof of smoke appeared in front of her on her desk, "What the hell! Who is this at this early in the morning?" Kushina said not knowing who or what was that.
"Kushina-chan... it's me... Fukasaku..." said the elder toad.
"Huh?" Kushina opened her eyes to see the small toad in front of her, "Fukasaku-sama? What are you doing here?"
"I don't know how to say this but..." Fukasaku prayed that this wouldn't hit the woman hard.
"But?" Kushina asked with fear.
"Jiraiya-chan was killed in a battle last night..." revealed Fukasaku.
