Chapter 28 Orochimaru's final plan
Orochimaru was livid that his second invasion was a failure because of those damned greeks.
"Kabuto you said those Athenians were nowhere near as strong as Spartans." Orochimaru said.
"They aren't but that does not make them any less powerful. Plus they had help from a Norse god and the god of the underworld. Not only that but the sound five were quickly captured by our primary target. We just didn't have the means to destroy Athens." Kabuto said making Orochimaru growl.
"These cursed foreigners are getting in the way of my ambition. If we don't destroy them soon enough we will be dragged through the mud." Orochimaru said knowing unless these Greeks were wiped out the world would forever change because of them and the Regime.
"I'm afraid theres more bad news then the failed invasion." Danzo said approaching them.
"What is it now?" Orochimaru asked.
"Apparently the Akatsuki caught word about your invasion and sent that intel to the Greeks before your invasion began. Thats why they were ready to attack your ninja on the beach of Marathon." Danzo said making him widen his eyes before growling further.
"What business do they have to get in the way of my plans?" Orochimaru asked.
"I'm afraid they did this for a different reason. It was to draw away Sparta's most elite warriors away from the Prisons." Danzo said confusing them.
"Draw them away from the Prisons? Why?" Kabuto asked since that made no sense.
"Aren't you two forgetting that someone the half god hates more than anyone is there?" Danzo said making Orochimaru frown before he widened his eyes seeing where this was going.
"Freddy Kruger." Orochimaru said before chuckling in amusement. "So thats why they told the Greeks of my invasion. A rather clever plan. With Sparta's most elite warriors away Zetsu could sneak past the lower ranked guards and free Freddy from his cell. Clever move." Orochimaru said.
"Not only is Freddy Kruger a formidable warrior but he also has the names and locations to every other half god in the world. This will Provide the Akatsuki an edge to capture them in time." Danzo said.
"That is a problem. However though it doesn't change the fact that our more present concerns are the Greeks. The more power they gain the harder it will be to destroy them." Kabuto said.
"Indeed. However there just might be a way to end this nonsense once and for all." Danzo said. "From what information my men have been able to gather the land of Greece is kept balanced through the gods. If the gods of Olympus were no more the land itself would become uninhabitable therefore making our goals that much easier." Danzo said.
"You believe a full out invasion on Olympus is the answer to finally getting rid of our problems with the greeks?" Kabuto asked. While it did make sense to do this there were major flaws in this plan. After all the gods of Olympus earned their name for a reason. They were the ones who took down the Titans who ruled Greece long before The gods did.
"Indeed plus if other gods got in the way it would remove further obstacles in the future. After all though gods they may be they are still flesh and blood and that means they can be killed." Danzo said.
"Your plan does indeed intrigue me Danzo. However if this were to succeed I would need everything at my disposal to destroy Olympus." Orochimaru said since while he still had many pawns at his disposal he would need to use everything in order to make this plan succeed.
"I do believe we can hire the help of other Mercenary Shinobi and persuade some of the smaller villages to go along with our plan. From what I can gather not every village is exactly pleased with the help the Regime has offered to the five great nations. Some of them were waiting for the right moment to strike some of the five great nations such as the land of wind." Danzo said.
After all smaller villages often blamed their problems on the five great nations. The hidden Grass village for example has always hated the land of fire for taking away high paying missions from them. The hidden Rain village was usually the battleground during the great ninja wars and blamed the three nations surrounding it for their pain.
"Hmm yes this is indeed very true. However if we are succeed perhaps we should also consider asking for aid from my former colleges. The Akatsuki." Orochimaru said surprising them both.
"Lord Orochimaru?" Kabuto asked in surprise.
"I can easily tell we both have similar goals. However none of us will be able to achieve our goals as long as the Regime is around and for the Regime to fall apart the ones who first formed it must parish." Orochimaru said fully convinced his former allies will take up on a temporary partnership.
"Even so I suggest we proceed with caution." Danzo said.
Meanwhile
Sean was training Sasuke to master his new found powers before he felt a sudden chill up his spine.
"Hmm?" Sean said looking around.
"Something wrong?" Sasuke asked.
"Uh...I don't know. But I get the feeling something bad is about to happen." Sean said
(Oh since one of you guys asked for a flashback about how Freddy got out here it is)
Flash back Freddy's break out
Freddy Kruger the killer of nearly the entire Kruger family was hanging in the air by chains.
His goal to kill his entire family was to test his ability. He was constantly tired of the peaceful ways of the family of the way of their bloodline originator Zeus. So during the night of a new moon he had slaughtered his entire family including his mother and father. (Just so people don't get confused Freddy is a mortal and Sean's step father is Freddy's father)
He left his little brother alive that night knowing if he had tried to kill him his father Ares would unleash his rage upon him. His grandfather was in an important council meeting that night so he was spared from his cruelty. After three long years he and his brother had met once again with Freddy planning on letting him kill him to achieve ultimate power. The power to enter anyone's dream and kill them in the most inhuman way possible.
However somehow the Greek army had managed to acquire the spells needed to pull him back out into the real world where he expected his younger brother to kill him but to his surprise he refused saying he's had enough of the taste of vengeance and would never walk down that path again.
Now three years later here he was stuck in a cell waiting to rot away.
However he suddenly heard the guards gasping as they were impaled in the hearts before falling over dead. What looked like a plant man approached him. One half was white the other black.
"Hello there." The white half said.
"You look like you could use a hand." The black half said.
"Who the hell are you?" Freddy asked.
"We are Zetsu. We work for the group known as the Akatsuki." Both Zetsu's said.
"Well, the hell do you want with me?" Freddy asked.
"Tell us what would you give to have vengeance against your little brother?" White Zetsu asked making his eyes narrow.
"Anything." Freddy said.
"Then lets make a deal. You join the Akatsuki and help us capture your brother in time and you'll have your revenge against him." Black Zetsu said.
"Fine now get me out of here. Won't be long till the guards find out something is wrong." Freddy said before Zetsu lowered Freddy down and cut off his chains letting Freddy rub his wrists. Soon enough both vanished away leaving only the dead low ranking guards behind.
End Flashback
"You have a lot of nerve coming here Orochimaru." Pain said as his former comrade stood in front of him.
"You never did like me anyway. But enough reminiscing. I have a proposition that could benefit both myself and the Akatsuki." Orochimaru said making him narrow his eyes.
"And what would that be?" Pain asked.
"Simple. The destruction of Olympus." Orochimaru said before groaning in pain as someone stabbed him in the shoulder making him turn and saw Freddy Kruger with a gloved hand with four blades on it that was piercing his shoulder.
"Please you idiot. Do you truly think mere mortals like us could ever kill the gods of Olympus? It's never been done. Not even if we had the help of half gods could we achieve such a thing. Only one man has ever come close to killing every single god in the world and he's been dead for thousands of years and we're nowhere near his level." Freddy said before removing his hand making Orochimaru growl at him.
"Freddy...Is it possible that there is something that could help us take down Olympus?" Pain asked in interest.
"Please the only ones who could take down the gods of Olympus now are the Titans...Hold that thought." Freddy said before he created a magic sphere looking for something and grinned.
"Well?" Pain asked.
"I don't know how this is convenient but the barrier that keeps all the Titans in the bowels of Hades will be facing a time that will weaken it allowing someone with God blood in his or her veins to destroy it. This could help us destroy Olympus." Freddy said.
"I see. When will this event occur?" Pain asked while Orochimaru grinned.
"In about 2 months. Plenty of time for us to prepare everything we need. But be warned." Freddy said making Pain raise an eyebrow as did Orochimaru. "There are certain people in Greece called oracles. These people can see visions of the future. If any of them get a vision of our plan it will make things much more difficult." Freddy said.
"Then we'll proceed with Caution." Pain said.
"So who's going exactly?" Freddy asked.
"You and Kisame for sure. Along with Kakuzu, Hidan, Sasori and Deidara. Konan and myself will stay behind to make sure the hidden rain village is secure." Pain said not telling them the real reason.
As soon as Orochimaru left Pain went inside the building where someone was waiting for him.
"So you agree with this plan?" Pain asked.
"Not really. I believe it's a waste of manpower and time. However the Regime is becoming a problem to deal with. If by chance Orochimaru is able to take down the gods of Olympus it will strike a critical blow to not only the Regime but to other gods as well. Plus theres the fact that perhaps other gods will try to aid Olympus which could give us a chance to kill them as well." The person said.
"And what about the son of Ares?" Pain asked.
"He'll be there. His father will more than likely ask his son to fight alongside the other gods." The person said before he stepped out of the shadows and had an orange mask on and you could see through the hole of the mask the Sharingan. "Still I look forward to seeing how this will play out. Who knows. This may present a large amount of benefits." The Person known as Madara Uchiha said.
"Meaning?" Pain asked.
"I managed to get into Pandora's temple undetected to secure the box. Apparently it was a fake. Guess the gods took precautions after turning the whole temple into a trial. My best guess is that the Real Pandora's box is somewhere on Olympus. What better way to hide away ultimate power than to secure it where the gods of Greece live." Madara said.
"So you want us to secure the box?" Pain asked.
"If possible. I very much doubt it will be easy at all but if the opportunity should come then yes. With power like that how can we possibly pass up the chance?" Madara said.
Meanwhile
'What is this uneasy feeling? Something is going to happen. Something bad.' Sean thought with a hand on his face. Currently he was meeting with the five Kage with Leonidas as his personal guard. Julia was with Price as his guard and Reznov was with Makarov as his guard While Xerxes had his son Dastan as his guard. (Picture Dastan from the prince of Persia the sands of time movie version)
"The attack by Orochimaru during the invasion of Athens has left the Regime concerned. We know this is not the last we've heard of him." Leonidas said.
"I agree. However locating that snake is more difficult than we could ever imagine. He knows how to hide." Ay said.
"Not only that but we still don't know the number of his forces." Rasa said.
"Actually." Sean said gaining their attention. "During the invasion I managed to capture a group of sound ninja known as the sound five. My Grandfather is straightening them out with words alone. Once that happens we should know a clear estimate of his forces." Sean said.
"Excellent news. However i'm more concerned as to why Orochimaru would try to invade Athens since no offense to your fellow Greeks but they are more idealists when it comes to peace than warriors." Onoki said.
"He was after the box of Pandora." Sean said confusing those who didn't know what that was.
"Pandora's box?" Ay asked.
"This box contains great power. The gods sealed it away as a last resort. Originally it was sealed inside Pandora's temple which many of your Shinobi participated in nearly a month ago. However after the Trial became a tradition in Greece the Gods placed it on Olympus while sending a near complete look alike inside the temple." Leonidas said.
"But how did Orochimaru learn of this box?" Mei asked.
"It is possible that he has spies within the leaf village feeding him intel. Not surprising really. Especially considering his intelligence network increased with Danzo joining his ranks." Makarov said.
"Yes I'm afraid that is very true." Hiruzen said knowing his former rival had many ways to get information. (He's no longer Hokage he's just an advisor now)
"Hmm. When will the next trial be held?" Ay asked.
"In about a year. The Spartan council are the ones who decide who is worthy to participate in the trial. I still have no idea who decided Kiba should be allowed to participate since he was the first to die before even getting inside the temple." Sean said getting various snickers since that as really pathetic.
"Back to the matter at hand. We'll take precautions against Orochimaru in the future by setting up small defense points at the boarders to prevent any further invasions." Xerxes said.
"It's the best we can do for now." Leonidas said before they decided to take a break.
