Hello to whoever will read this.

I'm sorry for not uploading for so long. I haven't forgotten about my stories, I will finish them. Believe it!

Even though I haven't uploaded any new chapters, I have been fleshing out the world an it's characters. I have a very good idea on where the story will go.

Hope you enjoy.


*BOOOOOOOOOOM*

The sound echoed across the devastated landscape. Naruto's Rasengan had created a massive cloud of dust that swallowed the entire area. The blonde hero landed quickly beside Tsunade and Jiraiya. He glanced at his mentor, who was breathing heavily. The legendary Sannin offered a tired but proud smile.

"Don't worry, kid. Tsunade is the best medic-nin in the world. She eats poisons like this for breakfast, right, Tsunade?" he said, looking toward his old teammate. But Tsunade was speechless. She couldn't process what she was seeing.

"Shizune... Where's Shizune?" was all she managed to say. Naruto placed a reassuring hand on her shoulder.

"She is fine. I have some clones watching over her. She is incredible! Even though she was bleeding heavily she managed to help me beat Kabuto." Naruto said loudly. At that point the dust was beginning to settle and all three could see a very disgusting sight.

Orochimaru stood unharmed, not a scratch on him. The same couldn't be said for the two reanimated corpses. Dan's entire upper body had been disintegrated and was now slowly regenerating. Naruto knew that just moments before he reached Orochimaru, Dan stepped in and took the Giant Rasengan point blank. What our blond hero didn't know though, was that behind Dan, Nawaki had jumped on top of the Snake Sannin and covered him. The little boy's entire back and part of his skull was gone. Naruto flinched, nauseated by the sight of the child's half-reconstructed face staring at him.

"Orochimaru you Bastard!" Tsunade screamed. The pale ninja gave her a perverted smile.

"Why so angry, Tsunade? This is the true reason behind the creation of this Jutsu. A regenerating body is the ultimate defense. To not use it to protect your own goes against what your dear uncle, the Second Hokage, envisioned." He declared as the body of Dan finished reassembling.

"O-roch-ima-ru..." The corpse began speaking and the legendary medic nin flinched.

"Do-not-sp-eak li-ke you kn-ow wh-at th-e Ho-ka-ge was thi-nk-ing. You w-ill ne-ver kn-ow wh-at it means to be Hokage!" Dan managed to say and punched Orochimaru in the face. The Snake Sannin stumbled back, wiping blood from his lip with disgust and glared at the standing corpse.

"That's enough of you. I let your personality intact so that I could break Tsunade but it seems it's more trouble than it's worth." He growled and with a small gesture from his rotten hands, Dan froze. His body turned stiff and lifeless once again, and then pivoted ominously to face Naruto and the others.

Gamabunta leaped back ad rattled the people on top of him.

"Woah! What's the deal Toad Boss?" Naruto asked. Before the giant summon could answered him the ground where they stood moment ago gave away, revealing a massive pit and the mouth of a serpent rising from beneath it.

"I have been to countless battles with and against those snakes. I knew that all this chitchat would be used against us somehow. Oi, Tsunade-hime! I don't have much time left. Take care of Jiraya or you will have to deal with me. Naruto, watch your back. If you focus too much on Orochimaru, then that slithering snake will eat you. Honestly kid… you are gonna need a whole army to defeat them, since you can't summon me yet." With those last words the giant toad disappeared in a puff of smoke.

Tsunade, Jiraiya, and Naruto all began to fall into the open pit before they could even realize it. Tsunade grabbed Jiraya close to her chest. Jiraya could feel the poison subsiding from the bliss alone. Naruto, on the other hand, looked down and freaked out. The ground wasn't there. What waited for them was the gaping mouth of a massive snake.

"Oh oh" The blond hero exclaimed and immediately formed his signature hand seal.

"Shadow Clone Jutsu! "

In an instant, close to a hundred clones appeared midair. Two of them grabbed Tsunade and Jiraiya and by creating a makeshift chain with some other clones, they managed to land in solid ground.

"Don't worry, I got this! " Naruto shouted, leaping toward the snake's open jaws. The Beast lunged forward. Naruto spun midair, using some clones that had already landed on the giant snake, he managed to make himself land on top his head. Our blond hero traveled closed to the beast's eye and said.

"I know you are doing this because he ordered you. So I'm sorry for this." As he finished, some yellow pigmentation started forming underneath his eyes. Naruto, thanked the two clones that were with Shizune, one of them took her to the closest hospital, while the other stood still and gathered Nature Energy.

"Rasengan!"

He slammed the violent orb of chakra directly into the side of the snake's mouth, blowing its jaw off. The serpent howled, crashing into the rocky earth. The snake's massive body knocked debris into the air, shattering half the plateau. The ground gave away and the massive body of the snake fell into the pit.

Naruto landed next to Tsunade and Jiraiya. The legendary gambler so now in fully that Naruto had managed to learn Sage Mode. Before anyone could recover, Kabuto came slithering atop another snake one far smaller than the previous one. His glasses cracked and his cocky smiled whipped from his mouth.

"Lord Orochimaru!" The silver haired man quickly stopped close to his mentor and began healing the Snake Sannin's mouth. Naruto rushed forward but stumbled mid-charge. The toll of maintaining Sage Mode was beginning to show. Orochimaru bit his, now healed, lip and clenched his withering arm.

"This…Buffon managed to learn Senjutsu… I underestimated you Uzumaki Naruto. But at least you are not stronger than me!" The paled man declared and immediately the two reanimating corpses began moving towards Naruto. Tsunade was seeing this in slow motion. Her two loves in her life were rushing a young leaf.

'A young leaf? Did I really thought that? He IS just a kid thought…'

Her mind was flooded with memories of her Grandfather, the First Hokage. Her Uncle, the Second Hokage. Her sensei, the Third Hokage. Nawaki. Dan. All these people that she fought for, and they fought for her. All these people who were now dead still lived on. Not on those abominations. No. On that kid. On this brass, loudmouth, irritating, stubborn, naïve, kindhearted, loyal, heartwarming kid.

'No. Not a kid. The Hokage!'

Tsunade stood up, the two moving corpses were closing in fast on Naruto. Her hands began to glow and the image of the faces on those two she loved the most became clear. Gone were the pure and happy smiles, she thought she was seeing. Their faces were emotionless, robotic, devoid of any feeling, of any warmth... of any dignity. The diamond on her forehead unraveled and the sealing jutsu she had on herself released. In an instant she was between the reanimations and the Hokage. Before the two corpses could react, they both were punched so hard their faces blew off. The blond medic nin quickly checked up on Naruto, a faint chakra flow began emitting from her fingertips. Naruto immediately felt his fatigue going away. The rest was short lived however, our blond hero saw from behind Tsunade the body of Nawaki, with only the lower half of the head, moving closer with a kunai in hand. Tsunade didn't even looked at the corpse. She grabbed it by the hand and threw it several meters away.

"Hold still! You have way too much chakra!" She ordered Naruto, who did as he was told. He closed his eyes and took a deep breath trying to make the healing chakra travel to his entire body faster. When he opened them, he saw a flying kick ready to land on Tsunade. She, however, stopped in once again with one hand. She glared at the face of her love. Tsunade pushed the reanimation back with force, making to lose balance. Before it could find it again, she had already grabbed it's throat. At that moment, the other corpse attacked from behind, but she was ready and with two kicks in the stomach she had her brother's body pinned to the ground with one foot. She turned to look at Orochimaru.

"You are gonna die Orochimaru. For Sarutobi-sensei and for using them like this!" She used some chakra and threw Dan towards them. She then picked up Nawaki and jumped towards their summoner. Kabuto said something to his mentor who simply nodded. Tsunade and Naruto, who had by now recovered enough to at least give back up to the legendary Sannin, both saw Kabuto doing some hand seals. Tsunade had already seen them before and immediately stopped. When Kabuto finished and used some of Orochimaru's blood, both reanimations began to crumble and turn to dust, leaving behind two unknown corpses. Without missing a beat both Orochimaru and Kabuto slithered away with the help of Kabuto's snake.

Silence fell on the battlefield. Tsunade stared at the direction they left for a few secnds and then turned and walked back to Jiraiya. Naruto was not gonna let them go so easily however, he formed his famous seal, but Jiraiya's cough made him realize that he must go to him. Tsunade and Naruto both knelt close to the Toad Sage. All three Exhausted.

"So.." *Cough* "Tsunade-hime…" *Cough* "It looks like you lost another Bet"

"I did… didn't I"
