Chapter 8

 

In a village a short distance away from Konoha…

 

Naruto was bored. All he had to do was wait for Itachi, and that was taking to long. Naruto decided to pass the time by reading a book he downloaded onto his Wilk's PDD. It was fairly engaging. It was Guardians of the West, Book 1 of the Mallorean. He had just finished the chapter where Garion scared the shit out of two armies when he heard a knock on the hotel room's door. “Right on Time” he thought.

“Come in Itachi, make yourself at home” he yelled towards the door.

Opening the door, in stepped a young man “How did you know it was me?” he asked

“I have my ways” replied Naruto. He then began tapping on his PDD. “Glad you could make it. Our friend said you would be showing up soon”

“We don't have long, Kisame is right outside”

“I know. We'll have to make this quick. I'm guessing that this Akatsuki wants the power of the tailed beasts, instead of protecting their Jinchuurinki. Oh well. Just play it safe and everything will go as planned. I am sorry that about this, but we can't have Kisame suspecting anything.” He threw a scroll at Itachi, who put it away.

“Naruto, you're coming with us” said Itachi

“And if I refuse?”

“We will take you by force.”

“Then I guess you shall learn how good my Tae Kwon Leap is. Boot to the Head!” their was a loud Shzmmp as Naruto kicked Itachi in the head, who was completely unprepared for it. Kisame just then ran into the room.

“Heh, a kid got the drop on you Itachi? You must be getting slow” he said “Ok kid, we can do this the easy way, or the hard way”

“How about we do it my way? Leaf Hurricane!” Naruto said as he jumped up and kicked Kisame. He was completely unprepared for the force of the kick, which knocked him out into the hallway. Naruto then picked up Itachi and threw him out towards Kisame “I suggest you leave, before I get into my repertoire”

“Shit, that kid packs a punch. How the hell did he get so strong?” Kisame thought. He then looked closely at Naruto. He was a short kid, wearing camo pants and a dark blue jacket similar to his own except it had red flames instead of clouds, and it had a Hitai-Ite as the Collar. The kids head, hands, and upper torso were wrapped in bandages; the bandages on the right hand were noticeably fresh while the rest seemed quite old and ragged. The seal on his stomach was on display, almost proudly.

“Stop staring and get out of here. You and the rest of the Akatsuki have no idea of what you're doing” said Naruto

“I don't think so kid. You just surprised me, that's all. You really think a gennin could take on a Jounin?” Kisame said as he pulled out his sword. He then swung it at Naruto in an over head chop. Naruto blocked it with his right arm. Kisame pulled back on his sword. But, instead of the sound of rending flesh, there was a screeching noise.

“Nice try, but no. Sharkskin won't work on me. I know better than to emit chakra and my arm is made of sterner stuff. I think you have overstayed your welcome. Time to die” he said as he aimed his right arm at Kisame. Kisame dodged to his left as the bandages unraveled, but he wasn't quick enough. There was a ripping sound as the bandages sliced through his arm, cutting it apart into multiple chunks that fell to floor, with Sharkskin making a loud thump as it landed. The bandages just as quickly raveled back up. Naruto then threw a Fuma Shuriken aimed at Kisame's head. He ducked, but didn't have time to react to the second Fuma Shuriken that came at his now lowered head. Their was a loud thump as his head fell to the floor.

“I suggest you take his head with you Itachi, as proof that he died and that you didn't wait until his killer was gone before you grabbed it” said Naruto

Itachi got up and grabbed Kisame's head. As he turned away he asked “What about Sharkskin?”

“I'll just stick it in a void pocket until I return to Konoha. Now get going before Sasuke shows up” he replied.

Itachi then ran from Kisame's dead body.

 

10-minutes later…

 

Sasuke ran into the room “Naruto, where is he?” he asked, out of breath.

“Itachi? He ran off after I killed his partner” Naruto said.

It was then that Sasuke noticed the one-armed headless body lying on the ground.

“Why was he after you? I'm the better Ninja”

“I don't know, may be he likes blondes?”

Sasuke blushed at the implications of that statement “you're sick, you know that”

“Well, I'm not as bad as someone who purposely collects fan girls. Do you actually plan on having sex with them? Or do you encourage them only to hide your latent, homosexual thoughts of your brother?”

Sasuke turned even redder and got madder “That's sick! I should kill you for that!” he yelled

“You're welcome to try. But since I took out a jounin without breaking a sweat, I don't think you stand a chance” he stated, “now if you'll excuse me, I must find Pervy Sage and get out of this village” he then shu-shined out of the room and onto the roof of a building a block away. He then began to sneeze “That shit really irritates my nose. But it couldn't be helped, I had to get away without raising an alarm” he thought.

He found Jiraiya walking towards the hotel that he was just in. He hopped down and ran over to him. “We gotta go Jiraiya. Kisame was just here and I don't think a town is the best place for a fight”

“Ok”

 

Half an hour later…

 

“Did Kisame see you Naruto?” asked Jiraiya

“Yes, but he's not the one I'm worried about” replied Naruto

“Why is that? And who are you worried about?”

“Why is because I took Kisame out”

Jiraiya looked surprised “You did? How?”

“I chopped up his right arm then decapitated him. The who is Sasuke Uchiha. He wants to fight me, to prove he is better than me. But once he does that he will seek out Orochimaru to become more powerful. I can't allow that until we get some friends in high places, since the council will blame me for Sasuke's defection and will try to execute me, to their detriment”

“What do you mean `to their detriment'”?

“Due to how powerful the Kyuubi is and how confined it is, it would destroy a five mile radius around me. I know, because it was a Phoenix jutsu that got me here”

“Oh, I forgot that”

 

A few hours later…

“I think this is a good place to rest for the night” Jiraiya said

“Ok” replied Naruto

“So Naruto… What jutsus did I teach you back in your timeline?”

“Well, you taught me how to summon Toads, which I can't do anymore due to my contract with my Jackal. And you taught me the Rasengan.”

“I taught you the Rasengan? Hmm… that means their really isn't much I can do for you then, is there?”

“Not really. I already know all the Seals I would ever really use, and most of your jutsus make use of Toad Summoning, which I can't do”

“Hmm… then I guess I don't need to worry about training you.”, he then put his fingers to his chin in a thinking pose, “So, tell me, why did you accept the transformation from the Chikage? You'd think that you would prefer to fight using your own power”

“Well, I did it for my friends. You see, like Sasuke I seek power, but unlike him I do so to protect my friends. I would give up my humanity to protect them”

“I see… well, let's get some sleep”

 

About a week later…
“Tsunade should be here soon” said Naruto

“How do you remember exactly what you've been told, even after ten years?” Jiraiya asked.

“Simple, my sensei taught me a jutsu that allows me to search through my memories. It's very useful, and makes it so that I don't have to carry a scroll that can be stolen”

“I see…”

“Enough, here she comes”. Walking through the Town Gates was a Blonde woman and a brunette woman carrying a pig wearing a red vest.

“Tsunade!” yelled Jiraiya

The blonde woman looked at Jiraiya and her eyes went wide. “Jiraiya! What are you doing here?” she yelled back

“Looking for you, of course. We need to talk and quick”

“Why?” she asked

“Sarutobi's dead” said Naruto

She looked shocked “What!? How? Who did it?”

“That's why we need to talk.

 

Later, outside of town…

 

“You mean to tell me that Orochimaru managed to kill the Third Hokage? But how did he manage that?” Tsunade asked

“He used a forbidden jutsu to raise the spirits of the first and second Hokages, then had them attack Sarutobi” Naruto answered

“Jiraiya, who is this kid? And why is he speaking for you?”

“This is Naruto Uzumaki. And as for why he is speaking for me, he was the one who was informed of how Orochimaru was killed”

“This is Naruto? What the hell happened to him? He looks like a mummy!” yelled Tsunade

“I tried to fight Orochimaru. That's all you need to know. We don't have much time. Orochimaru will be here any min…”

Before Naruto could finish, Orochimaru and Kabuto jumped out of the trees.

“Speak of the devil, here's that snake-obsessed child molester and his butt-body Kabuto. Come here to trick Tsunade into fixing your arms?” said Naruto

“Hello Naruto-kun, I don't think we've had the pleasure to meet. I'm curious as to where you got your arms, as my father said they amputated them”

“I have my resources. I hope you're not too disappointed, Orochi-Teme, since you went to all the trouble to permanently disable me”

“Not at all, I'm just perplexed at how you've changed since our last meeting” said Orochimaru, “But no matter. You're still too weak to face me. I was going to have Tsunade fix my arms, but since you're here, I guess I'm going to have to kill you”

“Tsunade, Jiraiya, you two take care of Orochimaru. I will take care of Kabuto. You stay back Shizune” said Naruto as he eyed Kabuto.

“Poor Naruto-kun, you really think you can take me on?” asked Kabuto

“I've done it before, and I can do it again… now face my Tae Kwon Leap… Boot to the head!” there was a swish and then a Shzmmp as Naruto charged Kabuto and kicked him in the head.

Kabuto stumbled back, holding his head. “That hurt!” he said. He then dug into his pouch and pulled out a pill, and then he swallowed it.

“A soldier pill? Even with it you can't take me on by yourself!” Naruto said

Kabuto pulled out a kunai and stabbed at Naruto, who grabbed his wrist and squeezed, causing Kabuto to wince in pain as he dropped his kunai. “I said you couldn't take me on. Now feel the burn… Eye of Flame Jutsu!” He said as a blast of blue flame burst from his right eye, almost engulfing Kabuto who had managed to dive to the ground when Naruto let go of his wrist. Naruto then kicked Kabuto in the head, launching him into a nearby tree, as Naruto proceeded to form a Rasengan and drive it into Kabuto's chest. Kabuto, seeing this coming and no way to dodge, began to focus his chakra at the point of impact. When the Rasengan hit Kabuto burst through the tree, breaking it in-half. Kabuto barely survived the blast, his shirt was ruined and he was scarred.

Kabuto then jumped to Orochimaru's side, wiped some blood on Orochimaru's left arm, and performed the hand seals for a summoning jutsu. There was a flash of smoke and a giant brown snake appeared. The snake then, with its mouth agape, rushed Naruto who, with a flick of his right wrist, sent a bandage that sliced off the top of the snakes head.

“You will have to do better than that. The last time I faced Orochimaru, I wasn't fully adapted to my new body. But now that I am, you will be hard pressed to defeat me!” said Naruto

“What are you going on about Naruto? What do you mean new body?” asked Tsunade

“Now is not the time for this Tsunade” said Jiraiya

Naruto then charged Kabuto and Orochimaru, “Boot to the Head!” he yelled as there were two Shzmmps, and Orochimaru flew to his right as Kabuto flew to his left. Orochimaru regained his composure, landed and began to run towards Naruto as his neck stretched out serpentine-like towards him. When Orochimaru's head came within range Naruto punched it then yelled out “Impact Amplifier Jutsu!” as a concussive wave surged out from around his fist, throwing Orochimaru's head back like a rag doll. Kabuto came to help his master but there was a loud Shzmmp as Naruto again booted him in the head. Naruto then jumped back as Orochimaru attempted to kick him.

“This is getting us nowhere. I guess I will have to go full power. You wanted to know what happened to me, well now here's your chance!” Naruto yelled as he threw off his jacket. His bandages began to unravel. Kabuto was visibly shocked. Naruto's Left arm and the left side of his face were completely black, and he had three crimson hate-filled eyes on the left side of his face. His right arm appeared to be made of a black chitin. The right bandages then rolled into three spines that stuck out from his right shoulder. “This is a gift from the Chikage. I hope you're happy about this!” Naruto yelled as he charged them. Before he got to them Kabuto performed the seals for a summoning jutsu. There was a blast of smoke as a giant purple snake appeared.

Naruto grinned, “These fools have no idea of what they're dealing with” he thought as he stopped.

“Orochimaru, why have you…” the snake started to say when he noticed Naruto, “No! It can't be!”

“Eye of Fear Jutsu!” Naruto yelled as his left eyes blazed with an infernal fire, focused on the giant snake; He flinched in fear. “Forbidden Art: Alucard Unrestrained Shadow Jackal Release Jutsu!” he yelled, as his left arm dissolved, A giant jackal rose out of the ground from underneath him.

“Orochimaru, you fool! That kid has the power of the Avatar of the Jackal God Anubis! Only the tailed beasts can stand up to him!” the snake hissed.

“An Avatar!? How the hell did that Gaki get an Avatar?” said Orochimaru, who was obviously shocked.

The Jackal rushed the snake lord as Naruto jumped into the air towards Orochimaru and Kabuto. “Amnaguriken Eye of Flame Jutsu!” he yelled as multiple blasts of blue fire erupted from his right eye. As they were dodging the blasts Naruto was emitting chakra from his tenketsu points so as to slow his descent. The tips of the spines opened up and began to suck in air at a high speed. “Wind Breaker Jutsu!” he yelled as he released a blast of supersonic air from his hand. The force of the blast blew them away and forced the snake lord's head into the ground with a crash. The Jackal jumped behind the snakes head and bit the back of its neck, restraining it. Naruto landed on the snakes head, then he ran up the Jackal's head and continued onto his back, then he used a burst of chakra from his tenketsu points to increase his jumping distance. He then released another burst of chakra to dive towards Kabuto, charged up a Rasengan and knocked Kabuto out of the fight. He then turned towards Orochimaru. “I suggest you start running, before I get you” he said to the Snake Sannin.

Orochimaru dismissed the giant snake and jumped away, headed back towards Oto. Kabuto Shu-Shined out of there.

Naruto released the Jackal as his left arm reappeared.

The others ran over to him and began asking questions

“What the hell happened to your body, and why the hell do you have control over an Avatar?” asked Tsunade

“If you want to know, then come back with us to Konoha. We need a new Hokage, and you're the only one who fits the bill”

“I will come back to Konoha, but I won't promise to be Hokage” she replied

“Fine by me. We better start now. I'm sure the village noticed the demons, and we don't have time to be detained” he said as his bandages resumed their normal position.

 

 

Well, how was that? Naruto was kicking ass and taking names. He even booted some heads along the way. What more could you ask for? And no, I lack the skill to write lemons. Or were you thinking of making Sasuke a good guy? Oh well… Did you notice that Itachi was acting weird? Perhaps he is not what he seems. I can tell you though that he is not showing up again until he shows up in the anime. Sorry, but I will stray only so far. I probably won't do the Waterfall episode do to the fact that I can't remember any names from it. I might do the Tea Race Arc, but it would be short, and I have no idea why Kakashi wasn't there. If you know where he was and what Idate's sensei's (the bad guy) name is, then e-mail me at HotPinkKiller@Hotmail.com

As always, I wish for reviews, since I feel important when I get them. Until next time… Thunder… Thunder… Thunder Cats, HOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!
