Chapter 281
She wore a pair of latex shorts that hugged her hips and ended at her
knees. Her top was covered by a black bra and nothing else. Her face
was one of horror, I've seen it before, on the faces of rape victims. And
it boiled my blood.
I charged forward, I grabbed the arm that was pulling Karin away and
carried her in my arms, rushing back to the entrance to the room. I then
cancelled my jutsu, returning to normal speed, allowing them to realise
something had happened.
"W-what the fuck?!" the Kusa ninja cried out in shock.
"ARGH!" Karin cried out as she looked up at me, "d-demon!" she
screamed, oh, that's right, my super scary mask. Karin was supposed
to be paralyzed, thanks to the mask's abilities. But I'm guessing
because she's an Uzumaki the mask didn't affect her, since Uzumaki's
did make it in the first place.
"Are you alright lady Uzumaki?" I asked as I removed my oni mask,
revealing my real face to her. Almost immediately she stopped
struggling as she saw my real face. I smiled at her, though my
facemask did get in the way, "I hope I didn't come too late. Are you
alright?"
"I-I...I am," she nodded, her cheeks turning red.
"Hey shit fucker!" Tayuya screamed as my team appeared, "what's the
big idea ditching-...where the hell did you find another chick?! You were
gone for ten seconds!"
"W-who the hell are you?! How did you get in here?!" asked a Kusa
ninja at level 67, chunin level.
I ignored him and smiled at Karin, "don't worry, I promise, I won't let
them hurt you ever again."
Karin's eyes widened, "w-what?"
"What is with him and redheads?" Anko murrmered.
I looked at the way Karin was bleeding, at the bruises around her arms
and...the feeling of foreign chakra near her neither regions. I didn't
want to guess what they did to her. By killing Orochimaru...I
condemned her to this fate. I did. If Orochimaru was still alive...he
would have saved Karin and made her his soldier...and he wouldn't
have been hurt.
"Here," I took off my cloak and tied it around Karin's nearly naked body,
"this will keep you warm." Karin's eyes began to water, I don't think
anyone has ever shown this much kindness to her. Once again, I felt
guilt hit me hard.
I turned around, putting on my mask, "usually I would like to offer
people a chance. A chance to turn around and walk away. But," my
eyes flashed red, "you hurt an Uzumaki, and more importantly, you
pissed me off," I took out Kusanagi, extending it to five feet of length,
"so none of you will be shown mercy."
"Wait, what?" Puma asked in surprise. I don't blame her, I'm always
about mercy. But no, not this time.
I vanished in a blur, activating my Swift Release. My team and Karin
watched as I ripped into Kusa ninjas, the ones active, and the ones
dying. Their blood flew out into the air, their heads and limbs rolled.
I could tell that Puma felt disturbed while Yagura's chakra remained
stable and unfeeling. Anko was confused, but Tayuya just liked her lips
in excitment. And Karin...well, that girl didn't take her eyes off the
bodies even for one second.
It was over, in less than ten seconds they had all been carved up into
pieces of flesh and nothing more. I stood before my team, my hands
covered in blood, my sword, even more so. I made a single ram seal
and immediately all the blood vanished from my body, a handy little
trick I picked up from Tobirama.
"Puma, take Karin out of here. Turtle, you, Flute, Sexy and I will finish
up here," I dismissed them with a wave.
"Yes sir," Puma's voice held respect like always but now with a hint of
fear. She helped Karin to her feet and lead the girl out. The Uzumaki
kept looking back, her eyes landing on me, glued to me form. I
removed the mask and showed her my real face, smiling at her. For a
moment I think she smiled back.
"What the fuck was that?!" Anko cried out.
"Justice," I replied sheathing my blade, "or are you telling me you didn't
notice the dried up sperm around Karin's legs?"
Anko clicked her teeth and looked away. Tayuya grinned, "I didn't think
you had it in you shit head."
"I am capable of a lot of things," I smiled, "you ll are honestly lucky I
don't end up a serial killer or something. I could end entire villages if I
want to you know."
"Well then it's a good thing we are your allies," Turtle replied as he took
off, "I'll check for anything valuable on the base."
"Right, here, let my clones help," I made twenty clones and sent them
with Yagura. Once they left I sighed and turned to Anko, "you
disapprove?"
Chapter 282
"I...I just don't want you to end up like him," Anko whispered.
I chuckled, "relax Anko, I'm far to sexy and straight to become like
Orochimaru."
"Could have fooled me," Tayuya snorted.
I sighed, "seriously? That was two years ago! Are you still mad about
that?!"
"Hell yeh I am! What?! Am I not good enough for you?!"
"You were drunk!" I cried out.
"And?! I still wanted to fuck you! What's the problem? Is my hair not red
enough or something?!"
I grumbled, "it's not that! It's just that I would prefer it if people didn't
have sex with me only because they were drunk! It's honestly
embarrassing! What's the matter?! Is it me?! Is there something about
me that makes women feel they can only have sexy time after getting
shit faced?!"
"Oh please, when has that ever happened before?" Tayuya snorted.
I turned to Anko and raised an eyebrow, "yeah...I wonder where."
"Wait...no way!" Tayuya's eyes went wide, "you?! You fucked him?!"
Anko immediately vanished in a puff of smoke. Tayuya gasped, "get
back here Sexy! I have questions! Come on cradle robber! You have to
share the details!"
I chuckled, Tayuya never changed...well, I suppose she did a little. She
was now five feet five inches, nearly a full foot shorter than me. Her
breasts had grown too, now standing at a perky full C cup, she was
much sexier than before, actually looking like a girl now rather than a
drag queen...but I still don't date anyone with a cup smaller than a D
cup!
An hour later:
"Burn," I made the tiger seal activating the explosives I had put into the
base.
BOOM!
It all went up in flames, everything, the base, the dead Kusa ninjas
inside, everything. I turned to my allies, "it's over...finally."
"Thank God," Puma sighed.
"E-excuse me," Karin spoke up from behind Anko, her tone filled with
fear and respect, "w-who are you people?"
I smiled, "my code name is Light, I'm a ninja of Konoha! Nice to meet
you Karin Uzumaki!"
"H-how do you know my name?" Karin asked in worry.
"Simple, because my brother is an Uzumaki as well," I grinned, "I learnt
to pick up on your unique chakra very easily! Plus the bright red hair
and purple like eyes kind of give it away!"
"B-but my first name. Karin, how did you know about that?" she asked.
I winked, "I can't reveal all my secrets now can I Karin? I am after all a
ninja," she looked uncomfortable but nodded. I chuckled, "but, if you
must know. I just read the name stitched on your pants," I pointed at
her short. Which was actually true. I noticed it when I held her in my
arms during swift speed.
"W-what?! Pervert!" she hissed, slapping me hard across the face,
"what type of sicko looks on the inside of a girl's pants?!"
"H-hey! It's not like I wanted too!"
"Oh, so you just happened to notice the name I stitched on the inside
of my pants?!"
"Yes! I mean...ah..damn it! It's like I'm intrested in you anyway! I only
like hot older women with giant breast!"
"Yeh?! Well screw you too pal!" Karin growled.
I groaned, "Uzumakis, you all are the same. Short tempers and crazy
logic."
"Wait...did you say you knew another Uzumaki?" Karin asked in
surprise.
I nodded, "yes. Two in fact. One Misu Uzumaki and one Naruto
Uzumaki. They both live in Konoha, which is where we're going to go.
Would you like to come along Karin?"
"I….I suppose. I mean, I don't have anywhere else to go," she
whimpered.
"Then it's settled underwear girl," Tayuya snorted smacking Karin up
the head, "you can come with us!"
"Watch it!" Karin cried out.
"Oh quit whining! We're allowing you to come with us aren't we?!"
Ah, looks like this was the start of a beautiful friendship. And now I can
stop feeling so damn guilty.
That night:
We left the hideout and reached a small village a little north of the
base. We managed to find a room in an inn and settled in. Tayuya and
Karin got along like a house on fire, it honestly reminded me of the
fighting relationship Karin had with Suigetsu.
We took a single large room, six beds with a connected bathroom and
a table with chairs.
"So what where Kusa ninjas doing in one of Orochimaru's bases?" I
asked Karin the moment we all settled in.
The girl looked down in shame, "t-they discovered it a few months ago.
We begun to use it as a lab or a clinic. I...they were trying to mimic my
powers."
"The ability to share chakra to physical touch?" I guessed.
Karin nodded, "yes..."
I looked out the room window, I could feel several chunin level chakra
signatures run around the village, but they generally avoided it. From
what I could tell they were all heading towards the destroyed base.
"I can sense some of them moving towards the base," I spoke, "they
haven't caught our scent, and I doubt they will."
"Y-you can sense them?" Karin asked surprised.
"Yes...so can you I'm guessing," I smiled.
She nodded, "y-yes. But I can't...I can't really get a lock on them."
Chapter 283
"Hm..your range is probably shorter...but I'm guessing it's a lot more
accurate than mine. Can you feel our chakra's properties?" I asked.
Karin nodded, "yes. You all feel different," she turned to Tayuya, "you
feel like a...well, you feel odd. You feel...like a song, but you have a
little bit of a cold chakra mixed in with it," she looked at Anko, "you
have a hint of the same scent, but the rest of you...it's nicer, like a cold
ice cube on a hot day."
She then looked at Yagura, "your chakra is like a seaweed, like sea
shore," Yagura chuckled, she turned to Holo, "yours seems smaller
than the rest. But...warm, like a spring's breeze."
And then she finally turned to me, "and you..you feel warm...like an
inferno being held back by a solid metal dam of mental focus. It
feels...immovable...like the Earth," she gulped.
"How so?" I asked with a raised eyebrow.
"I...I can't really explain it, it's like trying to explain someone's
personality through a painting. But your chakra feels like a sea of
magma being held back by a damn. Like you're controlling yourself
every moment, every second...it feels like if you give in for one second,
we all will be destroyed by the magma. That we won't even last a
second."
Anko's eyes winded, "okay...now I'm scared."
"I don't think I'm that scary...am I?" I asked.
"You're scary sometimes," Yagura nodded, "but other times it's like
talking to a boob obsessed moron."
"Exactly!" Karin nodded, "when I first slapped you I didn't even feel the
magma! It was totally covered by the wall, but then, when you began to
use your chakra...I felt it. The magma...it was like you were two
different people."
I hummed, "interesting," I looked out the window, "listen...there's going
to be a change in plans."
"What?" Puma asked surprised.
"First light tomorrow, I want you all to take Karin and leave," I told them.
"What?! Why?!" Tayuya cried out, "what about you?!"
"I have another mission," I looked at the horizon, "a few miles West
ward is the Land of Rain, Ame. I...I have someone I have to defeat."
"Who?" Yagura asked.
"A member of the Akatsuki," I replied, "their supposed leader...Pain."
"Akatsuki?" Karin asked, "who are they?"
"A group of S rank ninja, each strong enough to kill a hundred jounins
by themselves," Yagura spoke, "and you want to fight the strongest
one?"
"Their strength is greatly exaggerated, believe me, I killed one just a
few weeks ago," I snorted, "I'll be fine. Besides...it's about time I fought
someone who'll actually pose a challenge for me."
"That pride will get you killed Yami," Anko hissed.
I glared, "code names Sexy," I growled looking at Karin who
immediately flinched. I sighed, "sorry Karin...did you sense the
magma?"
She nodded slowly, "I...yes….I promise, I won't tell anyone, please
don't-"
"-Relax Karin," Anko patted her shoulder, "he barks, but he never bites
his allies. And the moment he revealed his face to you, you became his
ally. And, between you and me," Anko stage whispered, "he has a
weak spot for redheads."
I sighed, "whatever….either way, I'm going. This needs to be done."
"I'm coming with you," Yagura stated, "he's after people like me."
"Which is exactly why you will not be coming along, I'm not hand
delivering you to that man," I growled shooting everyone a look, "none
of you are. As much as you may not like to hear this, you aren't
anywhere close to fighting this man. You can't defeat Orochimaru, who
couldn't defeat Itachi, who is afraid of the man I'm going to face. So
trust me, you will not be ready for this man."
"But you will?" Anko said in a challenging tone.
I nodded, "I was, from the first day of this mission I've been training for
this moment. So trust me, I'm more than ready to take him on."
"And what if the Hokage asks us where you are?" Puma asked.
"Tell him I'm making sure my little brother doesn't die a very painful
death," I told her, "and if he continues to whine remind him that he
owes me one very big favour."
They didn't like it, I could tell as much. But I didn't care. I had been a
good leader and good friend for over two years, now it's time to be
selfish. And that's exactly what I was going to be. I knew in the end,
everything would be alright but still...I had to try and end Pain's threat
before it began.
The next day I sent them away, and after making sure they didn't try to
follow me, I took off towards Ame. I ran a few miles using Swift Release
before stopping and preparing for the battle.
I sat down under a tree and closed my eyes, slapping my palms
against each other and closed my eyes. It took me a moment of perfect
stillness to feel the nature chakra around me, and a moment more for
me to access it through my special cells.
One can achieve sage mode in two ways, that I know off. One is to
learn it from a summon that already knows it, like the frogs or snake.
And the other way is unique only to two people, me, and Hashirama.
Chapter 284
When I first began to teach myself wood release I was able to detect
sage chakra instantly, but fearing turning into a statue, I didn't try and
use it. Thanks to Hashirama's lectures, I was able to step forward into
the realm of senjutsu with ease.
Since I controled trees, which produced nature chakra, I had an innate
link with nature that didn't require coaxing like the toad oil did with
Naruto. I was already linked with nature, so all I needed was guidance,
which I got.
Ping!
Select chakra conversion rate!
10%- 60 seconds
25%- 2 minutes
50%- 5 minutes
75%- 8 minutes
100%- 10 minutes
I selected 100% and waited the full ten minutes, molding my chakra
with the nature chakra I gathered from the very air around me.
Slowly blood red lines began to appear on my face. Thick red lines
surrounded all three of my eyes as a second pair of lines ran from my
two normal eyes, down along the cheeks and around my mouth,
meeting together under my lips to form a vertical line that went straight
down my neck.
Two red dots then appeared on either side of my third eye before the
extended upwards into my hair line, tapering like a set of horns.
Ping!
Sage mode activated!
Time limit- 1 day if senjutsu chakra isn't active.
Sage Mode, SS rank
Sage Mode is an empowered state that can be entered by
blending natural energy with one's chakra, creating senjutsu
chakra.
Uses:
+5,000 Durability for general body
+50 STR, VIT, DEX
+100% stronger ninjutsu, genjutsu and taijutsu
I opened my eyes, instead of being black, they were now a shade
similar to gold. I sighed, damn, what a rush. I got up and activated my
pseudo summoning seal, bringing forth Moltres out of it's pokeball.
"Mol!" it cried out, 'what is the mission now master?'
"I have a God to beat some sense into," I grinned as I stepped onto
Moltres' back as we took off into the air.
'You are...far more powerful than normal master,' Moltres noted.
"A new form I've been working on. How does it feel?" I asked.
'Powerful,' Moltes simply replied.
We flew south west quickly, Moltres making great time. And slowly, I
could see rain clouds in the distance, we were entering Ame. And using
my 8.0 telescopic vision, I could see the village in question just inside
the clouds.
I didn't need sage mode to sense the chakra in the rain water, it was so
potent, like paint. "Take us above the clouds Hinnomaki," I ordered and
moltres obeyed.
We broke the clouds before nearing the rain and we quickly began to
fly high above the village hidden in rain. I reached out with my senses
and felt seven powerful chakra signatures below the clouds. Or rather
one insanely high chakra source that was divided up between seven
people, one alive and six dead.
I directed Moltres to the point where I could sense Nagato's main body,
or atleast what I hoped was his real body. When we were floating right
above him, high up in the clouds I stood up and removed my cloak and
mask, putting them away. I made a wood clone and began converting
his wood cells into human ones.
In five minutes a perfect clone of me stood next to me, he felt around
his body with chakra before nodding, "I'm real as I can be."
"Good, now close your right eye," I ordered as the clone obeyed, I
quickly then opened my inventory and took out the right sharingan eye
I took off Danzo, Shisui's right eye. It was leverage, my secret trump
card.
I first cut of all the pain nerves for the clone, once I was sure he
couldn't feel I think I took out his eye and put in Shisui's. I took a few
moments, but he quickly adapted to the eye, pouring chakra into it in
order to activate the mangekyou sharingan.
"Are you getting any notifications?" I asked him stepping away.
"Actually...no," the clone frowned, "that doesn't make any sense, why
doesn't it work? I'm a perfect copy of you, and I'm alive...is it because I
don't have a soul?"
I grumbled, "fucked up game mechanics...fine, we'll deal with this later.
For now, we have a mission. You think you can use the
Kotoamatsukami?"
He frowned for a second, morphing between the normal three times
and the four bladed shuriken silhouette. He nodded, "I think I can.
Should be simple enough."
"Good. The moment I bind their chakra, I'll send out a pulse of chakra.
Then, you begin," I instructed. The clone nodded in response. With that
done, I turned around sighed, "Moltres...Sunny day."
"MOL!" it flapped it's wings, hard. There was a wave of heat that
exploded outwards that went down into the clouds and suddenly they
began to burn up. The ever present clouds that hanged over the village
of Ame began to melt away as for the first time in decades pure
unfiltered light came raining down upon the people.
Chapter 285
There had been generations that lived and died in the rain. But now, for
the first time, they were seeing sunlight. I could almost feel the
confusion present in the hearts of people. And then, Moltres let out a
loud scream that turned all heads to it.
I leaped off it's back and dived down, we were right above an iron
tower, figures, Nagato would have wanted the highest point to have the
largest range for his black receivers. I charged my fist, I felt power
course through my senjutsu enhanced fist. I drew it back and punched
at the roof of the building.
"HELL YEAH!" I cried out as the entire roof exploded upon impact.
100 X 285 = 28,500 DMG!
And then, the perk I gained at level 70 from Hero maker kicked in:
Wonder Woman's strength- All strength based attacks gain X 5
bonus!
28,500 X 5 = 142,500 DMG!
BOOM!
The entire roof gave away as I sunk right through like a knife through
hot butter.
I landed on my knees cracking the floor of the top most chamber. The
sunlight came shining down behind me as I slowly raised up to my full
length and looked forward, spotting Nagato before me, his purple eyes
widened in shock at the mere sight of me.
Nagato Uzumaki, Pain
Lv- 145
REP- -50
Nagato was thin like a skeleton with black receivers sticking out of him
as if he was a pin cushion. And he felt weak, almost like he was dying,
but I'm guessing that was just because he kept feeding so much
chakra out through the receivers.
"So, I hear you have been searching for me Pain," I flashed my eyes,
"or should I say, Nagato Uzumaki."
I immediately ducked just as a paper kunai flew over me. I leaped to
the side and turned to see Konan came flying in through the balcony,
paper wings attached to her back and a very cross look on her face.
Konan, The Angel
Lv- 81
REP- -70
Well, she hates me. I grinned, "Konan the angel, my oh my, you really
are my type. What's say after I finish kicking some sense into Nagato's
behind you and I go out for some ramen eh? I know this great place in
Konoha!"
"Shinra tensei!" Nagato cried out as a wave of repulsive force came
rushing out. But I was more than prepared for that.
I grinned as I turned and planted my feet firm on the ground as the
familiar force of energy washed over me, doing it's best to push me
back. But my senjutsu was far too superior for it to even lay a scratch
on me.
Nagato growled as he kept pouring more and more chakra into pushing
me back, the ground shattered and gave out, even Konan was sent
flying away, though she managed to use her wings to fly.
And then, it finally ended, Nagato dropped his arms, exhausted. I
grinned as I released the chakra on my feet and moved through hand
seals.
"Sage Art: Swift Release: Speed up times 10,000!" It was an ability I
could only do while it sage mode as it would normally put way too
much strain on my normal body, ripping it apart by the ligament.
And this speed turned everything into a super slow motion. As far as I
know, nobody, not even Minato could keep up with me while in this
form.
But I had a time limit, I could use it for ten minutes of my personal time
before sage mode is used up, and along with it all the senjutsu chakra,
so I might as well make this count.
I first grabbed Nagato and ripped out every single one of those black
receivers on his body, throwing them out the window. I then cut my arm
and poured out 400 ml of my blood into Nagato's wounds, using my
cellular manipulation to fuse it with his own blood stream before tying
him up with chakra repression seals.
I then grabbed Konan out from the air using chakra threads and tied
her up using the same chakra repression seals. They were strong
enough to hold Yagura back, I had them made just incase the Sanbi
ever tried to escape.
And then, I released the jutsu, just in time too as the last of my
senjutsu chakra began to ran out.
I stopped as the red lines on my face vanished, leaving behind two
captured members of the Akatsuki, bound and helpless before me.
Immediately I sent a burst of chakra out, instructing my clone to begin
using Kotoamatsukami.
Nagato's eyes winded, "h-how did you do that?!"
I sighed, cracking my neck as I found a chair and dragged it forward,
resting my strained legs on the seat as Konan tried to free herself in
vain.
"It's no use," I told her rolling my shoulders, "that seal is meant to hold
back the Sanbi, I doubt even someone as skilled as you can escape."
Chapter 286
"But I can," Nagato growled as he began to channel chakra into his
eyes, I knew he was trying to use the deva path to blow the restraints
away. Luckily I had prepared for that.
"Stop," I formed the horse seal, activating my blood inside his body,
paralysing his entire chakra network.
"W-what?! How?! How are you able to stop me?!" Nagato cried as he
struggled with his bonds, bt his physically weak body did less than
nothing to help free him, meaning it served to only tire him out and
nothing else.
"I have my secrets, like you have yours, Nagato," I replied, "now, will
you stop struggling for one second? The fact that I didn't kill you means
something you ripple eyed moron. It means I want to talk."
"And why should I listen to you?!" Nagato asked.
"Because I have an answer to your question of world peace," I replied,
stunning the two of them.
"What do you mean?" Konan asked.
"World peace," I told them, "that's why you began this whole venture
isn't it? To try and bring peace to an otherwise broken world...you have
been searching for an answer...I think I know it."
"Oh? And, what is it?" Konan asked, obviously not believe me.
I smiled, "it's simple. To destroy this world...we just have to give a
damn."
Nagato blinked, "what?"
I chuckled, "have you read Stan Lee's books?"
"What does that have to do with anything?" Konan asked.
"Just answer the question," I sighed.
"I...I have," Nagato replied, "what off it?"
I grinned, "what did you think? Of a world protected by super heroes
and men that stand for justice and never falter?" I felt the clones
foreign senjutsu enter Nagato's body, already it was taking hold. The
moment it entered his body, the chakra vanished, even I couldn't detect
its effect after that point.
"I think it's a dream," Nagato replied, "a foolish, foolish dream."
"And yet, over the past three years, I've been proving it can be done," I
shot back. "I stopped the civil war in Kiri, forging an alliance with them
for Konoha. It then took me some time, but I helped establish Oto as
well, a land that previously hated Konoha with all their heart. This
ability to create bonds, that is what can save people...that is the only
way we can gain peace...don't you think?"
"I think...that it is a foolish ideal," Nagato growled, "so what's your
plan? Go to each and every land and solve their problems? Hm? Is
that what you wish to do?! How long will that take?! How many lives
will be lost before that is over?! How many will die before that is over?!
What if you die before it is over? Then….then it would have all been for
nothing.
"The only way for peace to truly be achieved, is through pain. A shared
pain so great it will unite the people of the world together, joining hands
in understanding."
"No...there are other ways, less painful ways to do this," I replied, "yes,
often times periods of great peace is gained through great loss. But
that never lasts. Maybe one generation, maybe two. But then, the
fighting will begin again, because people will forget, they will forget the
pain. Will you be there to remind them? Will you Nagato?"
"With these eyes? Yes, I will," his purple eyes flashed.
I snorted, "you look half dead right now. And you're supposed to be an
Uzumaki. You won't last another decade, less if you spend your nights
with this beautiful woman by your side," I chuckled, "I'm guessing the
reason you look like that is because she drys you up every night in bed
eh?"
"P-pervert!" Konan growled, her cheeks blushing red, in a similar
manner to Nagato's.
"I-I will survive! If I have too, then I can do it!" Nagato continued,
ignoring my comment about his sex life.
I sighed, "Nagato, you know that it won't last. What's the plan then?
Give everything you have, punishing the world by forming the juubi and
then what? Do it over and over again? No. You aren't treating the
diseased flesh, you are just cutting it out, and hoping you got it all so
that it won't regrow. But it always will, and it will always come back
more violent than the last time."
"H-how do you know about the juubi?!" Nagato asked, growing paler,
"who told you?!"
I shrugged, "I know a lot of things...like the fact that you both were
disciples of Jiraiya himself, that you made Akatsuki as a group of
freedom fighters, not hired guns. That the dream you carry one...isn't
your own. But of your friend's, Yahiko...and I know deep inside...you
don't actually believe that pain will bring anyone together."
"Yes I do! What do you know of pain?! What do you know of loss?! You
were an orphan yes, but you have never lost anything! You don't-"
Slap!
I hit him, hard, nothing with chakra, but still, my STR level was at 235, I
didn't even use Wonder Woman's strength, however it still wasn't
anything to scoff at. I think I saw a tooth flying loose as his cheek
slowly began to turn purple.
Chapter 287
"So what?" I asked him, "is it that only people with a fucked up past
has a right to make the future a better place? Hm? Does that mean
nobody with a tragic origin story can try and make the world better?
Does that mean no matter how much good I do, just because I don't
fucking understand, it makes it all worthless?"
Nagato narrowed his eyes, "what do you know?"
I reached up to my headband and untied it revealing my bare forehead
to them both. Slowly my third eye opened up, revealing itself to them,
causing them to stiffen a gasp at the sight of the red rinnegan.
"I know exactly what you are capable off Nagato," I spoke, looking right
at him with all three eyes, "I know, but case I am capable of the very
same. I know that if you want to unite the world through pain, you don't
need the jubi to do it, you can just kill everyone right now with your
powers. Just pop into one village after another and kill everyone there.
"Then the remaining ninjas will band together and fight you. People
would be united through pain, just like you wanted. You can do that,
though you might die, but then again, you have always been willing to
do that. So...why didn't you Nagato?"
"I...it wouldn't be effective."
"Bull shit it won't be effective!" I snarled, "I pretended to kill Yagura, the
pirayeh of Kiri, and that brought everyone in that country together. You
mean to tell me you honestly don't' think that can happen again? Huh?
Are you really that stupid?"
"Their pain...it won't be enough," Nagato argued back.
"It will never be enough," I shot back, "do you know why? Because
pain is never the answer. Because love, is a much more powerful tool
than fear and hate will ever be. If you want proof, just look at the
woman to your left."
Nagato turned to Konan, "Konan and I are united by pain."
"A pain you felt decades ago. Time heals all wounds. Can you honestly
tell me Konan, that you're here with Nagato because of that pain?"
She looked at me with steel in her eyes and nodded, "yes I can."
I sighed, "you kunoichis are always such great liars. Very well, I
suppose there is one way to get the truth out of you," I charged chakra
into my third eye, activating it's abilities, "Naraka path."
-5,000 CP!
There was a tiny burst of fire behind me as the Statue of the King of
Hell came bursting out of the ground. Konan blinked in questioning
while Nagato gasped.
"I-it's real, you really do have the Rinnegan as well," he gasped.
I raised an eyebrow, "I see, so a rinnegan can see the statue, even if
I'm not using it to revive people. Interesting," I noted as usually the
King of Hell head was invisible for everyone except me.
I then turned to Konan. I grabbed her by the neck and picked her up,
she kicked and coughed, but I didn't let her go, "now then. Let's try this
again," her mouth was forced open as her tongue came flying out like a
giant pink mass. The King of Hell opened his mouth as a thin purple
arm shot out, grabbing Konan's tongue.
"Now I'm sure you have seen Nagato do this a thousand times to other
people," I spoke as Konan's eyes widened in horror, "so you know what
will happen if you lie."
"No! Don't'!" Nagato cried out.
"So tell me Konan. Are you with Nagato still because of your shared
pain...or is it because you love him...like a friend, or as a lover?" I
added the last part to give her some wiggle room.
Konan looked at me in hate before looking at Nagato's stunned form.
He looked regretful, but there was a part of him that wanted to know.
And Konan knew she couldn't lie.
"I-I love him," she spoke, her voice muffled from the extracted toune, "I
love him with all my heart and I can't stand to see him become a
martyr!"
"That's enough," I ordered the King of Hell to release Konan as I
dropped her down, banishing the summon back to wherever ti came
from.
Konan coughed her throat sore, an after effect of the jutsu. I turned to
Nagato, his eyes wide in shock, "how can you believe pain is the
answer...when both your friends follow the path of love? Yahiko wanted
to make friends out of enemies...and Konan loves you more than the
pain she feels in her heart. So tell me Nagato...do you really still think
pain is what will bring true peace to the world?"
Nagato looked to Konan, "Konan...but what about Yahiko?"
"Yahiko...he will always be in my heart, always," she looked away,
tears welling up in her eyes, "but you're still here. It was you, not him
that brought peace to this land. You're my friend and...i don't know, one
day, I began to see you more than just a friend….I still love him...but I
love you too Nagato."
Chapter 288
Nagato turned to me now, "how did you know?"
I shrugged, "a beautiful babe like that with an anorexic dude like you?
Either you must have a huge cock or she's crazy. Crazy in love," I
snorted.
"He really does remind me on Jiraya sensei," Nagato said in a deadpan
tone.
"He's worse," Konan replied with a snarl, "he's so much worse."
"Oh, you're making me blush," I chuckled, rubbing the back of my
head. I looked down at Nagato and sighed, "so...what do you think
about my answer Nagato? Is it better than yours?"
"I...I don't know," he replied.
"Well, then how about a test?" I suggested.
"What kind of test?" Nagato asked.
"The original owners of these eyes used to travel all over the Elemental
continents and help people," I told the man as I released the seals
around them both, "maybe you two should go on a honeymoon around
the country...find those who require help and help them. Put these
fucking crazy plans on hold for a while," I used chakra threads to grab
their Akatsuki rings form their hands, "and if after a year, you still
believe the juubi is the best way to go, come to me and we can fight
over ownership of these rings. For if you really wish to try and destroy
the world, I will be the first person you need to kill."
"So you wish to bargain for a year?" Nagato asked with a raised
eyebrow as Konan immediately came to his side and picked him up,
his anorexic body hanging off her thin frame easily, "a year where I go
around helping people? Spreading love?"
"You got it," I nodded before grinning, "and hopefully you two will fuck
and by the time a years up you both are too preoccupied with each
other to notice the rest of the world around you," I opened my inventory
and tossed both rings inside.
"I see…." Nagato coughed into his hand while Konan tried her best to
keep the blush off her face, "and if I deny your request?"
I created a shadow clone and dispelled him. Immediately there was a
loud bang as a flash of fire came crashing through the roof, blowing
apart the rest of the tower's top revealing my real life clone and
Hinnomaki above, with a rasen Nova Blast in the clones hands. I saw
his eyes, no sign of Shisui's eye, good, that must mean it was effective.
"That blast has enough power to wipe out a village," I told Nagato,
"without your chakra, your eyes are useless. I'll make sure to end
you...so I don't really think it's in your best interests to reject the offer."
Nagato snorted, "I see, so you were thinking several moves ahead of
me...impressive Yami Uchiha."
I sighed, "don't call me that! I'm not a fucking Uchiha! I'm just Yami!
Okay?! Yami! Now get your ass out of this god forsaken village and live
a little! And I swear to god if I don't hear news of a beautiful blue haired
angel and her anorexic ginger boy toy traveling the world, performing
miracles, I'll fucking lose my shit!"
"Very well then, it would seem I have no choice," Nagato narrowed his
eyes, "I'll see if your...method will work...though I doubt it will."
"Time will be the judge of that," I snorted, "now, before you go tell me,
where is Madara?"
"Why would I give up my ally?" Nagato asked, "I may have chosen to
go on this journey, but I am still in his debt."
I sighed, "fine...but when he eventually tracks you down and tries to kill
you for deserting him and his plans, could you pass on one message
for him from me?"
"What is the message?" the Uzumaki asked.
I smiled, "Rin would be so disappointed in him."
Nagato nodded, "I will tell him that, do not worry."
"Thanks," I then vanished in a streak of lightning , appearing on
Moltres' back, "see you both later! Don't worry about the chakra block!
It'll dissolve in an hours time! Until then, I suggest you two start
packing!"
Moltres took off, leaving the village, Konan tried sending a paper plane
to spy on us, but my clone, who was still in sage mode, managed to
discover it immediately and destroyed it. I then took out Shisui's eye
and sealed it away once more, putting it into my inventory before
reverting the clone back into wood and absorbed him into myself.
It would take a year before Nagato and Konan realised I had already
won. It was a cheap trick using the Kotoamatsukami on him, but it was
worth it. Yes, I could just kill them and be done with it. But I liked him,
he wasn't evil...he was kind of like Obito himself, a lost man who was
taken advantage off by Madara...damn, looks like all the blame is
coming on Madara huh?
Unfortunately I could only use it on one person. Konan would be a los
string, but at least she's too loyal to Nagato to even questions his
orders, especially if it meant allowing them to be together, for real.
Anyway, it's time to head home...finally.
Chapter 289
That night:
I managed to catch up with my allies soon enough thanks to Hinokami
speed. They were understandably pissed at my actions, but I just
repeated the same thing, 'it had to be done'.
We all came into another village that night, renting two rooms to sleep
in. I shred mine with Anko and Turtle, though in the middle of the night I
snuck out into the woods, traveling far far away.
Once I was truly alone and used a summoning jutsu and summoned all
three dead hokages to my side, each once again pouring out ash every
time they were summoned.
"Have you managed to defeat Pain?" Tobirama asked.
I shook my head, "no. I had to secretly use Shisui's eyes to make him
see the best in the world instead. We won't be seeing him on with the
Akatsuki ever again."
"DO you think that it will really work?" Minato asked.
I shrugged, "I may have not had to test it, but I'm confident that it did
work."
Hashirama patted my back, "don't worry. If you believe it's possible,
then it might just be so. If this man really is as dedicated to peace as
you say you are, then he won't turn away such a task. He would feel
obligated to try everything path available to him...or be forced into it by
the Kotoamatsukami."
"You know, you really aren't making a good case for being an
irresponsible person Yami," Minato chuckled.
I groaned, "I told you Minato, I already have one voice inside my head
Minato, I don't need two."
"You could just drown him out," Minato suggested.
"Now that would just be rude," I snorted.
"What is going on here?" Tobirama asked, "what are you both
discussing?"
"Minato wishes to give me his Yin half of the nine tails chakra," I
informed him with a sigh.
"It's for the best," Minato nodded, "I am nothing but a corpse, Yami will
need the power of the kyubi if he wishes to try and take on people like
the Akatsuki. And to be honest...he's far more powerful than I will ever
be."
"Ah, if you didn't notice I just took on Pain single handedly and walked
away. I don't need the power boost."
"Do you really believe you can just talk your way out of fighting
Madara?" Minato asked with a raised eyebrow.
"If it's any worth," Hashirama began with a bright smile, "you would be
an amazing jinchuriki Yami. I have never seen someone as true as
you."
"There are parts of me that aren't like that Hashirama," I snorted, "dark
depraved parts that want to kill and hurt...if I take on something like the
kyuubi, I fear that just might enough to break me...I'm not sure I can
handle it."
"You are our disciple," Tobirama snorted, "trust me when I say this. You
are more than worthy of the kyuubi."
I sighed, "you know...we should probably ask what he thinks."
Minato blinked, "excuse me?"
"The fox," I pointed at Minato, "what does he think of all this?"
Minato closed his eyes for a moment before opening them once more,
"he's not really saying much...but I'm guessing anything is better than
being in a rotting body," Minato chuckled.
"So...what do you say Yami?" Hashirama asked.
I rubbed my eyes, "I so know I'm going to regret this but...fine. What
the hell. At least now if the Akatsuki is coming for the biju they'll have to
go through me as well. But," I grinned, "if I'm making this sacrifice...I
want something from you."
Tobirama raised an eyebrow, "you want a bribe?"
I nodded, "exactly!"
"What is it?" Hashirama asked curiously.
I pointed at Minato, "you are coming back with me to Konoha! And I
mean in a real body!"
"What do you mean?" Minato asked curiously.
"I mean, I have a rinnegan, control over the Outer path, and you have a
body. So...let's make you a real body. Hashirama and Tobirama are
well past their time. But you aren't Minato. You owe Naruto a father,
and you have a chance to do just that."
"B-but you'll die if you use the Outer path!" Minato argued.
I shrugged, "I can just make a wood clone alive and have him do it for
me. So? What do you say Minato? You in, or out?"
The Fourth turned to his fellow Hokages and gulped. They both nodded
with a smile causing Minato to sigh. "Well… if it means seeing my
son...how can I say no?"
I grinned, "perfect! Now, first things first, put the kyuubi in me, then we
can work on bringing you back to life."
The process was a long one. Minato and Tobirama worked in
conjecture to create the seal that would store Kurama inside of me. It
was the eight element seal, the same one Minato used on Naruto.
By four in the morning, we were ready. Hashirama used wood
restraints to keep me held down while Tobirama monitored my chakra
levels. Minato stood over me, reading the kyuubi for transfer, when he
began, it felt like lava entering my navel. Or it did at first before
Gamer's body kicked in and killed all the pain.
After twenty minutes, it was over.
Ping!
You have acquired the Kyuubi (Yin half)!
Ping!
You have obtained a new perk!
Jinchuriki- +100 CP every time you level up!
Ping!
You have gained a companion in the form of Kurama!
Ping!
Bonus- 20% to chakra regeneration.
Ping!
Bonus- 20% to health regeneration.
I sighed as I felt my chakra coil around the seal, slowly fusing into a
new power source along with my own core. I activated my eyes and
looked down at the seal, my chakra paths were teaming with a foreign
chakra, I could feel Kurama's might inside myself.
"How do I talk to him?" I asked.
"Meditate,"Tobirama explained as he vanished in a poff of smoke,
asshole.
Hashirama chuckled, "don't worry, I'm sure you'll be fine," he then
vanished as well.
"When...when you wish to revive me, please, just summon me," Minato
then turned away and vanished as well, I'm guessing he had a lot on
his mind, especially since I basically offered to revive him.
But, they were right, it's time to focus on the fox inside my gut...damn it,
I just realised I'm going to have to become friends with Kurama. Ain't
that a pain in the ass.
Chapter 290: The End- 2
I opened my eyes and found myself standing in a city. And not the kind
that I found in the Elemental Nations. It was the kind I found back in my
world...or I think, damn my memory. It was a western world, it reminded
me of New York with it's closed off streets. But, there was one
difference, the streets were empty.
I felt around and immediately I sensed my chakra. I looked around, the
buildings around me began to light up, rows of light turned on inside
each building. I see, so each building here represented a chakra
channel of my bodies. Impressive.
I walked forward, feeling around for Kurama's chakra. As far as
mindscapes went, mine was a lot nicer than Naruto's. I walked through
the streets, I found that all the streets were moving in a spiral motion,
moving towards the middle of the town. And in the middle of the city
was a giant park with a mountain in the middle.
I went into the park, the walls of the park were made of barbed wires
and deadly looking spears. Inside were trees so large and thick it
reminded me of a still growing redwin tree. Their roots so strong it
began growing out of the park and into the city, feeding chakra into my
channels. Hm, I see, these trees represented my senjutsu chakra.
As I walked towards the center I noticed several statues along the way.
One was of a dragon, a blue dragon that was on fire. Then came a a
status of Articuno with ice cicles rolling off it's form.
Each of these statues represented a chakra nature inside of me. There
was a Bulbasaur for Wood Release, a Charizard for Fire Release, a
Blastoise for Water Release, a Pikachu for Electric release and a
Pidgeot for Wind Release.
Slowly through, the trees in the park died as away as I approached the
giant mountain. It looked like the mountain and come exploding out of
the ground, like it had just recently formed as there was yet to be any
vegetation to grow over it.
There were steps leading higher into the mountain, I climbed them
quickly, they were short and uneven, and eventually took me to the
middle of the mountain where I came before an entrance to a cave the
size of a church, so one can only compare how gigantic the mountain
was in relative size.
The entrance wasn't open however, as with Naruto there was a giant
gat present before me with a seal paper before me. I looked into the
cave, I felt Kurama's chakra inside. He was awake.
"You don't have to pretend to be asleep," I told him with a smile, "I just
want to talk."
"I have nothing to say to you...ninja," he growled as suddenly two
large red eyes looked up at me.
I peered inside and blinked in surprise. The fox was looking up at me?
Ah, I see. My eyes adjusted to the darkness of the cave and I noticed
Kurama's body wasn't free, it was pinned down under the rocks inside
the cave, it was like the entire inside of the mountain had collapsed
down on his body. Damn Mnato, you weren't kidding around were you?
Kurama, Nine tailed fox
Lv- Undefined
REP- -100
I sighed, "I am sorry that Minato did this to you...tell me, what's your
name?"
Kurama's eyes widened, "you don't have the right to know my
name!"
I chuckled, "touchy huh?" I sat down before him and looked down,
"alright, that's understandable, you hate humans and don't trust them.
But I refuse to call you nine tails or fox, so give me something to work
with here."
"Bite me," he huffed, sending a blast of wind at my face.
I grumbled, "fine, I hereby dub you...Mr. Fluffy!"
"W-what?!" Kurama cried in shock.
I threw my head back and laughed, "it's perfect isn't it?! What's the
matter Mr. Fluffy? Don't you like the nickname?"
"I am the greatest of all bijuu! I am the nine tailed fox! I am not a
common pet!" he growled as he leaked out killing intent that didn't
even manage to faze me. Thank you Gamer's mind.
I snorted, "and yet you act like a child, upset at everyone for the crimes
of one person," he snorted and closed his eyes, looking away.
I sighed, "look...Foxy...I know you want to be free...and I honestly didn't
want to be your jailer. But...there's a bad guy coming for you...for all
your brothers and sisters. And if you don't help me stop them...they'll
manage to destroy the world that the sage of six paths created."
"And why should I care?" he huffed, "you humans are all the same,
you just wish to use us as weapons."
I grumbled, "I'm trying to ask for your help! Not use you! There's a
difference!"
"So what? You want my chakra to kill other humans? And then do
what? Gain power? Gain glory? What-"
"-Enough!" I released my killing intent, hitting the fox hard enough to
make him flinch for a second before I activated my sharingan, making
him gasp, "you know what these eyes can do yes? You know what they
are capable off...especially to a bijuu."
