Chapter 11: A Negotiation Part 1.
( Konoha, Hokage tower)
"You've found him? He's in wave?" asked the Sandaime with Jiraiya nodding as jiraiya told him everything and told him about a change in Naruto's appearance along with Itachi, Yugao, Anko. As a bonus Zabuza Momichi and his accomplice.
"And their daimyo... She's the one who kidnapped Naruto and is the murderer who killed some of our villagers... and to hear she killed the businessman Gato.." The Old Kage Mused smoking his pipe.
"And it's a possibility that she figured out I had spies in wave looking for Naruto and must have had them killed..." Jiraiya says grimly seeing his sensei sigh.
"What can we do Sensei? We have to get Naruto away from that woman. There is a dangerous vibe around her and I don't like it..." He says describing Lucy. While the Hokage frowned not liking where this was going, not liking the idea of Naruto seeing this woman as his mother. The boy must be returned here in the leaf village where he belonged and not with that murderer.
The Hokage was thinking of a way to get Naruto back. Without starting a War with Wave Country... Perhaps he could speak with the fire daimyo about this and see if he could convince Wave's Daimyo to give Naruto back.
If this works. The Sandaime could have Naruto's mind erased removing the pink-haired woman he calls mother from his mind. Then have the boy be put with Tsunade as his mother.
That is if Tsunade will be willing to listen.. Meaning he will have to tell her the truth about her godson. And knowing Tsunade's temper if she finds out that she's been lied too this whole time, she will not only try to kill him but also jiraiya too. He will have to take drastic measures. Hell if she finds out about what Naruto has gone through his life growing up here she just may side with the pink-haired woman and approve of her being Naruto's mother. He can't have that. He didn't want to have to do this to Tsunade but this is for the good of Konoha. When Jiraiya gets Tsunade back he'll have someone put her under control to get her to see things his way and why Naruto needs to come back.
"Find Tsunade Jiraiya. And tell her the truth in which will convince her to come back to Konoha." He says seeing Jiraiya look nervous and widen his eyes.
"Sen-Sensei!? You can't be serious!? Tell her the whole truth!?" Asked Jiraiya who is sweating in fear knowing the consequences of telling the truth to Tsunade along with her famous temper she was known for.
"Just Do it Jiraiya. You can take her beating due to you always peeping on her whenever she bathes in the bathouse or hot springs. Besides I have a plan for her should she not see reason to why we need Naruto back." Hiruzen says while Jiraiya gulped knowing how true that is, that he did attempt to peep at Tsunade and that she would beat him to a bloody pulp.
"I'm going to regret this... why me...?" Jiraiya says still nervous
"Because your the only one with a spy network, and you should be able to find her whereabouts sooner. Just do it Jiraiya, maybe if you do it, I'll give you a reward." He says with Jiraiya blinking and raising a brow
"What kind of surprise?" He asks with suspicion
"You'll know, when you bring her back." He says sternly with Jiraiya grumbling and decides to take his leave to find Tsunade.
Seeing that his Student left, he decides to go visit the Family Daimyo and get his superior to see reason on negotiating with Wave's Daimyo to give back Naruto.
As he made to leave he ignored the picture portraits of the late Hokage's who were glaring at him. Only two of them glared at him much harder and it was Harashirama Senju and Minato Namikaze who gave the harshest glares towards the Sandaime. As he ignored their glares and left his office.
Unbeknownst to Hiruzen or Jiraiya was that a Crow with pink Sharingan eyes had heard the whole conversation and poofed into smoke transferring the memories to its sender.
( Wave Country at the moment)
Itachi had reported to Lucy about Jiraiya and the Sandaime's plan. Telling her he sent a crow to see what are they possibly planning. Scowling she was with mild killer intent that made him flinch.
"Tell me more about this Tsunade Senju..." She asks as Itachi had told her all about Tsunade and her reputation as the best Healer throughout the elemental nations. Not to mention she's also part Uzumaki meaning she's a relative to Naruto but was lied too about his death by the Sandaime and Jiraiya.
Stroking her chin thinking of something.
"Lucy-sama?" Asked Itachi.
"Find her. And bring her to me. You and Anko Both." She commanded
"At once. I'll find her before Jiraiya does..." He says leaving to go find Anko and inform her about Their mission and leave ASAP.
Lucy sat on her throne now thinking of how to deal with this Fire Daimyo should they have a meeting.
Tazuna had told her the "Great Kaede Bridge" will be finished in two more weeks now that Gato was no more. She will wait and see when will this hearing start.
If Konoha was willing to take her son she was not going down without a fight. No way in hell she was going to allow that village to abuse her son, she could practically see herself in him when she was a child hated, and looked down on because she wasn't normal or a human being. All her life in her world she had to endure loneliness and hatred from humans who doesn't understand her, they only feared her because of what she is. And what she could do... she nearly tried to commit genocide on the whole human race in her world... now imagine if that has happened here in the elemental nations. If they tried to deprive her of her son Naruto whom she adopted. There would be hell to pay and no one will be safe from the bloody massacre she will do if that happens.
Kami had gave her a second chance to live and to raise the boy as her son.
( Tanazuki Dai, 4 days later)
Itachi and Anko were looking for Tsunade. Having heard rumors about Tsunade going to bars to drink or go gamble at casinos running from debt collectors.
His pink Sharingan scanned for her chakra signature. As he followed it.
"She's in there." He says pointing at the bar.
"What to do?" She asks
"Stay here and be on a look out for Jiraiya. He can't be far behind from us." He says while she flashed a sadistic smile.
"Permission to attack him?" She asks seeing him shake his head.
"No, killing him is not an option, neutralize him though with your snake vectors those vectors can bite right? A little venom will slow him down." He says as she nodded.
"Good. You do that. But don't be seen by him. We can't risk our cover to be blown." He added as he put on his cloak and hood along with a Weasel Anbu mask walked in the bar while Anko went on the rooftop wearing a hood and cloak while wearing her snake Anbu mask to hide her identity.
( In the bar)
He causally walked in and looked around for Tsunade and spotted her chugging on a sake bottle while she sat with a black haired woman and a pig. In which he assumed could be her apprentice.
He went to her booth.
"Hello Are you Tsunade Senju?" He asks while she stopped drinking as she turned her attention on him with Shizune doing the same thing.
"Yes. And you are?" She asks wondering what's a Anbu Black Operative doing here? And how did they find her here of all places?
"My name is Weasel." Itachi introduced himself while she frowned.
"Okay Weasel... did my Sensei sent you to find me?" She asks while having a hunch that it was possible that her Sensei sent this Anbu, she expected him to send Jiraiya to find her only for this guy to beat the pervert here.
"No. My Lady has. She has someone that you might want to meet." He says with her raising a brow
"Like who?" She asks
"Your Godson. Naruto Uzumaki." He answered with her widening her eyes then narrowed.
"You lie. My godson is dead. If you know what's good for you I suggest you leave me alone and stop saying such lies." She said glaring at him.
"I am not lying Tsunade, he is very much alive. Your Sensei and Teammate were the ones who lied to you about your godson." Itachi says with her scowling further
"What proof do you have?" She asks seeing him pull out photos of Naruto and give them to her as she widened her eyes at her godson and his appearance. Red hair like a true Uzumaki? How is this possible? When he was a baby he had blonde hair? Unless it was the Fox's chakra that changed his appearance and are those horns on his head?.. so he was telling the truth? Her Sensei and Jiraiya lied to her!? Why!?
"Why isn't my godson in Konoha? Where is he?" She asks
"He's currently in wave. Safe and sound. Come with me and my partner and we will take you to him." Itachi says seeing her look away then look at Shizune.
"Let's go get our things Shizune." She says as the two got up to leave and go to their hotel.
( With Jiraiya)
Now having entered in the Tanazuka dai city, since his recent spies told him that Tsunade was sighted here and it's possible that she's still here, he has to get her before she leaves.
Unbeknownst to him on the Rooftops Anko had spotted him.
She grinned sadistically and summoned one snake vector.
She heard all about this perverted toad. She heard stories of how he would peep on women in bathhouses in Konoha.
"The perverted toad, has been spotted. Time to give the perverted bastard a nice snake bite on the one place that makes him a man!" She thought with a dark smile and sent her snake vector at Jiraiya who was unaware of it and couldn't see it due to it being invisible.
The snake vector strikes at his balls and bit him there causing him to scream very loud that it echoed throughout the whole city.
The vector bit his dick too, making him scream much louder as the venom was injected into there.
He clutched his balls and dick that was leaking blood as he reversed summoned himself to Mt. myoboku to get healed. What the hell bit him!?
Anko giggled sadistically at her handiwork.
As the hour went by Tsunade along with Shizune and their pig went with The two masked Anbu Weasel and Snake to go to wave and see her godson.
( Wave a few days later)
Itachi had returned with Tsunade as Lucy sat on the throne with Naruto at her side.
"Who is she mother?" Naruto asks with Tsunade blinking at the mother comment and looked towards Lucy.
"That. Naruto is Tsunade Senju. Your godmother." She says with him looking shocked.
"And who are you?" Tsunade demanded
"I am Lucy. Wave's Daimyo and Naruto's mother." Lucy answers.
"Mother? You adopted him?" She asked again as Lucy nodded
"Come. Tsunade we have much to discuss. You two may reveal yourselves." Lucy says with Both Tsunade and Shizune looking confused as both Itachi and Anko took off their masks revealing themselves as both women looked shocked and that they have the same appearance as Naruto and Lucy.
"Itachi Uchiha!? Anko Mitarashi!? What the hell is going on!?" Tsunade demanded looking at Lucy.
"Your about to find out." Lucy says.
( Konoha at the moment)
Jiraiya reported to his Sensei that the mission to find Tsunade has failed. And that she's gone again. Hiruzen cursed how did Jiraiya mess this up?!
"It wasn't my fault Sensei. Something bit me down here..." He says while the old Kage cringed.
"What bit you?" He asked
"A snake." He answered with Hiruzen narrowing his eyes?
"A snake? If it was a snake surely you could have heard it!" He says
"That's the thing! I didn't hear it! It was Almost as if it was a ghost and just bit me! I didn't hear it or see it! I bet it was Orochimaru who did this!" Jiraiya growled
With Hiruzen knowing that's a possibility knowing Orochimaru would try something as crafty as this but invisible snakes? That can't be heard or seen? Clearly unheard of. And what business does Orochimaru have with Tsunade? Damn it!
With Tsunade gone his plans for her are ruined!
Well not all his plans... he managed to convince the Fire Daimyo to seek an audience with Wave's Daimyo.
"Sensei I'm about to go to the hospital to get checked out..." He says with the old man nodding...
Little did Jiraiya know was that Anko had deprived him of ever making babies. Meaning Jiraiya is sterile due to the venom terminating such a possibility for him.
And it's going to be a while for him to go to red-light districts and brothels to get "laid" because without Tsunade here to heal him chances are that his very dick will fall off due to the venom and infection he has on him.
Damn Karma can be a bitch indeed.
