It's been a year since Naruto was told about the war and almost a year has passed since the defeat of Trigon and the Titans have been training hard lately. There hasn't been any crime since Trigon happened and they were grateful for that since they could focus more on their upcoming fight in Naruto's world. Cyborg and Beast Boy decided to go instead of hanging back at Titan tower.
Cyborg over the past year has been upgrading his systems to increase the power of his sonic cannon and so his battery lasts a lot longer than what it usually would. He was aiming for his battery to last a couple of weeks before needing a charge and Naruto was trying to get him to make his charging set portable so he could store it in a storage seal.
Beast Boy was training with Naruto because of his animal transformations. Naruto went into sage mode once around Beast Boy to test him and Beast Boy was all over Naruto who had to knock him out many times. Beast Boy had enough control to not attack Naruto in his first version of sage mode, but he couldn't control himself once Naruto went to the second form. So Naruto just decided to knock him out when he needed to use his second version of sage mode.
Starfire and Raven would also train, but to onlookers it seemed like they were having a death match. They were pretty even and Naruto had to admit that he was really impressed with the both of them when he watched them fight one day. Raven was able to create a lot more weapons with her powers thanks to her training over the past year and she could form them instantly. Starfire was also able to do this, but not on the level of Raven.
The only person Naruto was worried about is Robin. He was mainly a hand to hand person, but this would not be your typical hand to hand combat kind of fight. Naruto told Robin about his concerns so Robin decided he would be a long range fighter. With the help of Cyborg, Robin was able to increase the power on all of his exploding gadgets and flash bangs. Naruto made sure each of his gadgets had enough power as 20 exploding tags that he made and now Robin's gadgets were really locked up safely.
Naruto over the past year made sure to perfect all of his jutsus and his abilities with his sharingan. He was finally able to create his complete Susanoo and the Titans were all amazed at how big it was. His Susanoo was bigger than the Titans tower. His Susanoo was still light blue and still came with the usual sword. Two locks of hair fell on each side of the face and around the neck was a necklace that had the Uzumaki swirl on it. It possesses a sharp tengu-like nose and a jagged mouth, giving it a demonic appearance.
His ability to control the Amaterasu flames increased as well. He could create a sword with the flames in his hand and use it in combat, but he always stuck to his sword. He would mainly use the ability while using his Susanoo to give it more fire power. His kamui was pretty much instant and the Tsukuyomi was basically the same as he already mastered it before switching eyes.
Over the year, he and Raven have been spending a lot of time together outside of training. They went on multiple dates, but of course they were at night since that's what Raven preferred and he didn't mind it one bit. It was pretty obvious that they were dating, but none of the Titans seemed to pick up on it. He also got Raven to go out one time in regular clothes instead of her usual outfit and the result was Naruto using a henge to kick someone's ass after he tried to grope Raven in front of him. Needless to say, Raven no longer wears regular clothes.
Naruto's room
"When are we leaving?" Raven asked
"Whenever I get the signal from Garaga." Naruto said
"This has been bothering me for some time. I know you and your mother get along now, but before it was like you hated your family. What happened?" Raven asked
"I never actually hated them. I disliked them, but after a while I didn't feel anything from them except my mom." Naruto said
"How exactly did she make up to you?" Raven asked
"Well..."
Flashback
The Uchiha massacre was fresh on everyone's mind and Naruto took it the hardest. Basically all of his family was killed in a single night. He knew Mikoto was innocent as he heard her arguing against Fugaku on multiple occasions about planning a coup. He sat out in the backyard of his house enjoying the cool breeze while working on his fuinjutsu. He was currently a level 9 fuinjutsu user and was struggling a bit with the 10th level due to the death of Shisui so he couldn't focus properly. He felt his mother walking towards him and just sighed.
"Naruto." Kushina said
"I'm surprised you're actually talking to me." Naruto said and she flinched a bit
"I was just coming to check and see how you're doing." Kushina said
"I'm fine." Naruto said
"Oh. Okay." Kushina said and just stood there
"Can I help you with anything? You're distracting me." Naruto said
"What are you doing?" Kushina asked as she didn't really know how to talk to Naruto at all
"I'm studying. Shouldn't you be training the golden twins of Konoha? You shouldn't waste your time on somebody like me." Naruto said and Kushina became depressed
"No. Minato and Jiraiya are training them." Kushina said
"Whatever. Now that I'm distracted and can't concentrate, I'll let you have this spot." Naruto said and gathered his things. He didn't realize Kushina was so close to him so he bumped her and flinched when she moved
"What's this?" Kushina asked as she picked up a piece of paper
"It's my notes. Can I have it back or do you want to give that to Menma and Narumi to help them train?" Naruto asked snatching the paper from her
"You're into sealing?" Kushina asked
"Yes. Are you going to punish me now? Maybe a slap in the face? Ground me for 2 weeks with no food? How about my favorite, leave the house for a month locking the house up and forget that I'm outside?" Naruto asked and Kushina flinched at all of that
"Am I really that bad?" Kushina asked
"Yes. You're a horrible mother. I thought all Uzumaki were supposed to stick together, yet you kicked me to the curb like trash." Naruto said
"Wait. How do you know that?" Kushina asked
"It's how you've always treated me. Kicking me to the curb figuratively and literally." Naruto said
"No. Not that. How did you know the saying that all Uzumaki were supposed to stick together?" Kushina asked
"I read it in a scroll." Naruto said
"What scroll?" Kushina asked
"Why? Are you gonna hit me?" Naruto asked and she flinched again
"No. I just need to know which scroll." Kushina said
"It was red with the Uzumaki swirl on it. I didn't read anything past that because that's a complete lie considering how I'm treated." Naruto said
"How much could you see on the scroll?" Kushina asked
"All of it." Naruto said
"Stay right here." Kushina said
"Why?" Naruto asked
"Just please. Stay right here." Kushina said desperately
"Fine." Naruto said and Kushina went up in a puff of smoke
"Just in case." Naruto thought and pulled out a kunai hiding it behind his back then Kushina came back with a scroll in her hand
"Can you read this?" Kushina asked
"Are you trying to call me stupid?" Naruto asked
"No. I just need you to try and read this." Kushina said and Naruto grabbed the action from her and read it
"Uzumaki sealing level one: must complete 8 levels of regular sealing before trying." Naruto said
"Yes!" Kushina said and went hug Naruto, but he pulled out the kunai and held it up to her
"Don't come any closer." Naruto said
"Why do you have that? I wasn't going to hit you." Kushina said
"I have it just in case. I'm tired of the undeserved beatings from you and I'll fight back from now on." Naruto said
"I was just going to give you a hug." Kushina said
"I don't want a hug from you. The only people allowed to hug me are Shizune, Kurenai, Anko and TenTen. You are not one of those people so don't try it." Naruto said and started to walk away
"Do you hate me?" Kushina asked and Naruto stopped
"No. In my eyes you're just a person I live with. I feel nothing towards you." Naruto said
"What can I do to make it up to you?" Kushina asked
"Nothing. I don't want anything from you." Naruto said
"What if I help you with you fuinjutsu?" Kushina asked
"I'm about to be a level 10 seal master in a few weeks. By the time I graduate the academy I'll be a seal master better than the perv and possibly you and your husband. I don't need any help." Naruto said
"What if I taught you Uzumaki sealing?!" Kushina asked
"Don't you think you should save that for Menma and Narumi? They are your favorites." Naruto said
"I haven't trained them in almost a year. Minato and Jiraiya have been focusing on the nine tails chakra. That and they couldn't read the scroll I gave you." Kushina said
"Then instead of training them physically, you should focus on teaching them how to read and write better." Naruto said
"It's not that. As you know, only those were the level one Uzumaki sealing notes. Only certain Uzumaki can read the notes. As far as I know up until now I was the last person able to read the notes. I just want to pass down the Uzumaki legacy to the next generation. After that you don't have to talk to me anymore. Please, let me do this. I don't want the Uzumaki sealing to die out." Kushina pleaded and after 2 minutes of silence, Naruto spoke up
"Fine. Don't think this is me letting you into my life. You're simply my teacher." Naruto said and walked away
"Well, at least it's better than nothing." Kushina thought
Flashback end
"After that until I came here, she's been teaching me ever since." Naruto said
"At Least you have your mother in your life now." Raven said
"I guess you're right." Naruto said
"What about your sister? From what you've told me you were the same to her." Raven said as she helped him put on his jonin vest
"Thank you. As for Narumi, I don't feel anything towards her. Me saving her from Orochimaru and during the invasion was me simply doing my job." Naruto said
"What if she wants to say sorry and actually be your sister now? I mean Menma is dead and so is your father. Maybe she's changed over the years and will want you in her life." Raven said
"We'll see. I have more important things to think about right now." Naruto said
"I think you should give her a chance. Which headband are you wearing?" Raven asked
"Neither. I may be on their side, but I'm through with the entire headband thing. I'm only wearing my jonin vest because my mom asked me to." Naruto said and then Garaga showed up
"It's time." Garaga said and left
"You ready?" Naruto asked and Raven put on his Uzumaki headband
"I am now." Raven said and he smiled
Living room
"So when do we leave?" Beast Boy asked
"Whenever Naruto gets the signal." Robin said
"I have not been to a different dimension. Perhaps I should grab a souvenir to bring back." Starfire said
"I never thought I'd fight in another war since the last time I was sent back in time." Cyborg said
"It's still not too late to back out." Naruto said as he and Raven came into the room
"I take it you got the signal." Robin said
"Yup." Naruto said
"Naruto, I have kept your sword and sharpened it even even for you." Starfire said and gave him him sword
"Thank you, Starfire. Is everybody ready?" Naruto asked
"We were just waiting for the signal." Robin said
"I got the signal. It's time to leave." Naruto said
"Alright Titans. This is it." Robin said
"Another thing. You won't be in charge. When we're over there, you follow my command." Naruto said
"That's fine with me." Robin said
"Good." Naruto said and activated his sharingan
"No matter how many times I see that, it's so cool." Beast Boy said and Naruto opened the portal
"Let's go." Naruto said and everyone stepped through the portal
Konoha
"Woah. This is where you grew up at?" Beast Boy asked
"It seems so peaceful." Cyborg said
"I don't get it. The way you described growing up is hard to believe." Robin said
"Just because a place seems nice, doesn't mean that's how it actually is." Raven said
"Where did friend Naruto go?" Starfire asked and everyone looked around
"He's up there on that pole." Raven said
"Why is he up there?" Beast boy asked
"Because the very same village that tortured and scorned him as a child is now one of the villages he is here to protect." A voice said from behind them and when they turned around they saw three people
"Who are you?" Robin asked
"I am Orochimaru. These two are Suigetsu and Jugo." Orochimaru said and Naruto dropped down
"I take it you're the one that reanimated Kabuto." Naruto said
"I did. I needed him to help with my arms. Unfortunately I was killed before I could release the jutsu and he's been going around sneaking into other villages." Orochimaru said
"He's been stealing DNA for his own reanimated army." Naruto said
"That is why I ended his reanimation, but I was too late. He's already reanimated Madara Uchiha himself and he's taken out the 5 Kage himself." Orochimaru said
"I know why you're here. Hurry up and get the four of them reanimated to help out against whatever that huge source of chakra is. I'll be there in a second. The rest of you head that way and help out." Naruto said pointing in the direction of the large source of chakra
"Where are you going?" Robin asked
"To see some people." Naruto said
"I never wanted the fourth shinobi war to happen, but it seems it was unavoidable. I will do my part in ending the war and I assume you will as well." Orochimaru said and walked away
"You have your orders." Naruto said and vanished
"Well, let's go." Raven said and they took off in the direction Naruto pointed to
Naruto
After leaving the Titans, Naruto set out to check up on some people. On his way to his destination, he was attacked by an army of white zetsu clones and he easily took them out. He made it to his destination and it was being attacked by more white zetsu clones. He sighed and pulled out his sword then started attacking the clones, taking them out one by one with ease. He was almost done when he heard a certain voice close by.
"Dammit, Kurenai! Hurry up! We can't let these things get to Mirai and Mito!" Anko said
"That's easier said than done!" Kurenai said and then all of a sudden every zetsu clone lost its head
"Whoa. I've never seen you move that fast." Anko said
"That wasn't me." Kurenai said
"It wasn't? Then who was it?" Anko asked
"Me." Naruto said as he appeared
"NARUTO." Anko yelled and pulled him in for a hug
"I didn't actually think you'd show up." Kurenai said as she gave him a hug
"Well, here I am." Naruto said
"What's this I hear about you having a girlfriend?" Anko asked
"It's true." Naruto said
"I wanna meet her." Anko said
"Not now." Naruto said
"Why are you here?" Kurenai asked
"I'm here to see you two. Where's everyone else?" Naruto said
"Tayuya, Haku, Honoka and Karin are all at a separate division helping the wounded. Everyone else is on the front lines." Anko said
"I'm guessing you two are on kid duty." Naruto said
"Yup. Do you want to see Mito or are you going to wait?" Kurenai asked
"I'm going to wait. I don't want to get distracted and not help in the war." Naruto said
"Well, you better get going then." Kurenai said
"Yeah. Whatever is over there has so much chakra that we can feel it over here." Anko said
"I guess I'm going. I'll see you both when this over. I have something to tell you and my mom." Naruto said and vanished
Battlefield
"Everyone, let's join together and fight as one." Hinata said and the army gave a roar of approval
"Thank you, Hinata." Narumi said
"Time for you to recover." Sakura said and started to heal Narumi
"A futile display." Madara said and the ten tailed beast he was on started to change
"It's transforming again." A cloud ninja known as Omoi said
"No. It's just reverting to its original form. That was only it's attack form. However, it's only one stage short of its final transformation. Narumi's still recovering and nine tails is infusing chakra. It's up to us right now, Bee." Gyumri the 8 tails said
"I heard that. We'll show everyone the way and where it's at." Bee said
"Listen, Bee. If it undergoes its final transformation, we've lost. We have to stop it. Right now." Gyuki said
"Ten tails isn't holding back. He must've gotten irked after seeing his other tailed beast inside of Narumi. The fun is just about to begin, but it appears that I'm going to need to move soon." Madara said as the ten tails prepared its own tailed beast bomb
"Whoa. It's just growing bigger." Shikamaru said
"Yeah. Is that meant for Narumi?" Choji asked
"Honestly, how are we supposed to deal with that without Narumi's chakra?" A random ninja asked
"We have to remain strong. We can't waiver after coming this far. Narumi is putting her all into doing what has to be done. The words Narumi said made it clear." Sakura said
"Yeah, she's been going out of her way even to protect shinobi like us." A random ninja said
"That's not what I mean! She told us that she considers all of us her comrades from the bottom of her heart." Sakura said and whispers began to happen with the allied shinobi forces
"Yeah. We're all comrades!" A ninja said as others agreed
"I'm going to fully heal Narumi now. Each of us needs to do what we can. If we're going to die anyway, we might as well go down fighting to the very best of our abilities." Sakura said
"Hm. Ino, I want you to link me with someone." Shikamaru said
"You have a plan, huh?" Ino asked as she ran towards him
"I knew you'd come through." Choji said
"There must be something we can do. Right dad?" Kurotsuchi asked
"I'm low on chakra." Kitsuchi said
"Master Kitsuchi, please hear me out." Shikamaru said as he was linked to him through Ino
"You're Shukaku's child, right?" Kitsuchi thought
"Teach me the signs to an easy earth style barrier ninjutsu that even a non hidden stone shinobi can perform." Shikamaru said
"The only one anybody can instantly master would be too feeble. It would be better to..."
"No. It's crucial that everyone be able to reproduce it. If our enemy has quality, we'll have quantity." Shikamaru thought
"These walls will get blown away immediately." Kitsuchi thought
"We'll just keep building more. They'll act like a shield. We'll slow that things momentum with many weak walls, rather than trying to stop it with one powerful wall. Of course, I plan to have all of the hidden stone shinobi build me a super wall." Shikamaru thought
"I see. Your idea might indeed be worth a try. Alright these are the hand signs." Kitsuchi thought
"Before that, Master Bee, while everyone is building barriers, I want you to hit that thing with tons of tailed beast bombs and shift its trajectory upwards." Shikamaru thought
"Ino, next thing. I want you to link me with every shinobi on the battlefield. Can you do it?" Shikamaru asked
"That doesn't matter! I'm gonna do it!" Ino said
Ino linked Shikamaru with every shinobi and Kitsuchi began teaching them the hand signs for the earth ninjutsu. The ten tails launched its tailed beast bomb and then the earth barriers were starting to rise out of the ground. Killer Bee's tailed beast bombs had no effect on the ten tails attack as it. The ten tails attack smashed through every barrier and when it reached the final one, Gyuki appeared trying to hold it off. As Gyuki was holding off the tailed beast bomb, a black barrier appeared and was also trying to hold the attack off as well. Raven, Starfire, Beast Boy, Cyborg and Robin all showed up confusing the allied shinobi forces.
"Cyborg, Starfire. See if you can hold it off as well." Robin said
"No, don't. This thing looks like it's going to explode." Raven said struggling to hold the barrier up
"Who are they?!" Ino asked
"It doesn't matter! They're helping us out so they're on our side!" Shikamaru said
"Who are they?" Narumi thought
"So they all decided to come." Kurama thought as he was watching from inside the seal
"Starfire, you should be able to lift this thing and send it into the air!" Raven said
Starfire used her hands covered in her powers to lift the tailed beast bomb. The shinobi were all amazed when Starfire started to actually lift the attack and as soon as she almost had it off the ground, it vanished.
"Raven, what did you do?" Beast Boy asked
"That wasn't me." Raven said
"Then perhaps we have successfully destroyed the attack." Starfire said
"No. It was something else." Raven said and then a kunai landed on the ground causing Minato to appear
"Sorry, everyone. Am I too late?" Minato asked
"Dad!" Narumi exclaimed
"Lord fourth? But how?" Sakura asked
"Brace for an explosion." Minato said and then an explosion happened
"What is that?" Shikamaru asked
"I sent the ten tails attack into the sea." Minato said and they were hit with the shockwave from the explosion
"Dude!" Beast Boy said as he was sent flying away
"Oh come on! That shockwave came out of nowhere. What's up with that?!" Ino asked as she fell on the ground
"He did tell you to brace for an explosion." Raven said
"Who asked you?! Who are you anyway?!" Ino asked
"They're our allies." Kushina said as she appeared
"Kushina?" Minato asked
"Minato." Kushina said and gave him a hug
"Who exactly are they? We've never seen them before mom." Narumi said
"Raven, it's nice to see you again." Kushina said
"Nice to see you as well." Raven said
"How are you doing ma'am?" Robin asked
"Lets see if I get this right. Robin has the mask. Cyborg is the metal guy, Beast Boy is the human green bean and this lovely girl is Starfire." Kushina said
"Green bean?" Beast Boy asked
"It is most wonderful to see you again." Starfire said as she pulled Kushina in for a hug
"What the? How can she be so excited in the middle of a war?" Kiba asked
"I'm guessing he's here as well?" Kushina asked
"Yeah, but he had to do something first." Raven said
"I see." Kushina said
"Something's coming." Ino said getting everyone's attention and then the first three hokages landed
"Well, Minato. It appears you're still as fast as ever." Hiruzen said
"Lord third hokage. Also aren't they..." Sakura said
"Well, lord fourth. I must say you're every bit better at teleporting than I am." Tobirama said
"Alright then. Let's do this." Hashirama said
"No way." A random ninja said
"I don't believe it." Another random ninja said
"Lord first. Lord second. Lord third and even lord fourth. It's really them." A random ninja said
"So you're the ones who stopped the attack just now. Who reanimated you?" A ninja asked
"Orochimaru's the one who summoned us. We need to put a stop to this war quickly." Hiruzen said
"Orochimaru died, didn't he?" Sakura asked
"Why do they have cracks on their skin and black eyes?" Beast Boy asked
"Maybe they're zombies." Cyborg said
"No way!" Beast Boy said
"That's the reanimation jutsu." Raven thought
"Amazing. The previous hokage are joining us in battle." A ninja said
"Now that's reassuring." A ninja said
"I'm totally lost." Sakura said
"I guess you're the last of our reinforcements, huh?" Narumi asked and then Madara came falling out of the air
"IT'S ABOUT DAMN TIME. I'VE BEEN WAITING HASHIRAMA." Madara yelled and then Hashirama just pointed at him
"I'll deal with you later. First I have to stop the ten tails." Hashirama said
"Huh. He hasn't changed a bit. We were never on the same page." Madara said
"After all, it's charging right towards us." Hashirama said
"Narumi, you've done really well today." Minato said
"Yeah. Just take a little break. The last of our help will be here soon." Kushina said
"Huh? Who is she talking about?" Narumi thought
"Hm. You'll see." Kurama said
"You know who she's talking about?" Narumi asked
"Yes, but I'm not going to ruin the surprise." Kurama said
"Where the hell are you?" Raven thought
"I'm on my way! I had to fight through an army of white zetsu clones." Naruto thought
"Fellow hokage, let's roll!" Hashirama said and then all of the four kages let off a huge amount of chakra
"Please, lord second and lord third. Stand in front of me." Minato said
"Woah. That's a huge amount of chakra." Sakura thought
"My dad is so awesome!" Narumi thought
"Have you already placed your markers?" Hiruzen asked as Minato placed a hand on each of their backs
"I have." Minato said
"It appears you're quick at striking too." Tobirama said and then the three of them disappeared then were standing next to four kunai
"Let's go!" Hashirama said and each Kage performed the same hand signs
Ninja art: four crimson ray formation
The four Kage were standing in a square formation and then formed a large barrier that is red in colour. The barrier surrounded the ten tails that was currently charging at them.
"And I think I'm going to add on." Hashirama said and entered sage mode
Sage art: Gracious deity gates ten seals
Hashirama created ten massive red torii gates that fell down from above, that pinned the ten tails down.
"A red barrier?" Rock Lee asked
"It is said to be more powerful than the four flames formation. It's a barrier that requires four hokage class shinobi working together to create." Might guy said
Kushina used her Adamantine Sealing Chains as well to hold down the ten tails. Raven also helped keep the ten tails down by using a spell that also created binding chains and a huge lock that was supposed to be unbreakable. The ten tails roared as it was trapped and couldn't move due to the barrier and everything else holding it down.
"Raven, how long do you think you can hold that thing down?" Robin asked
"I don't know. I've never used it on something this powerful before." Raven said and then Naruto landed amongst the allied shinobi forces
"No way." Sakura whispered
"Now I see what mom was talking about. I'm glad you're here, Naruto." Narumi said with a small smile
"Sakura, Narumi." Naruto said
"Naruto! It's you!" Sakura exclaimed and everyone looked at him
"Naruto, you're here." Ino said running over to him
"Hey, Ino. Stay back. He may have been gone, but he's still an enemy." Shikamaru said
"Yeah, Ino. You probably shouldn't go near him. He might kill you like he did the civilian council before he left." Choji said
"You all are still just as annoying as when I left. Get over it." Naruto said
"Why the hell are you here, you bastard?!" Kiba asked
"He's right. What are you doing here, Naruto?" Sakura asked
"Isn't it obvious? I'm here to help end this war. A whole lot has happened since I was born and after I left, but I've decided I would always protect the hidden leaf village as long as the people I care about are still there. Then after this war is over, I'm going to become hokage and change the village to how I see fit." Naruto said and looked Narumi right in her eyes
"WHAT?" Sakura yelled
"LONG TIME NO SEE YOU ROGUE NINJA. YOU CAN'T COME BACK AND CRACK SOME LAME JOKES. DO YOU EVEN KNOW WHAT IT MEANS TO BE HOKAGE?" Kiba yelled
"I don't know anything that's happened to you since you've been gone, but that's just not happening. I mean do you even hear yourself?" Shikamaru asked
"Do you believe we can forgive and forget what you've done?" Shino asked
"Yeah. Killing the civilian council and being responsible for the death of your brother isn't something a hokage would do." Choji said
"I've never really cared about how you all felt about me and I'm not going to care now. The civilian council that I killed were all corrupt and were slowly bringing Konoha to its near end. Menma got himself killed by running off by himself during an invasion thinking he was untouchable. His death is his own fault, not mine. The previous Kage caused these circumstances, so I will become hokage and change the village." Naruto said and then Narumi stood up then walked next to Naruto
"I'm going to be the one who becomes hokage. Menma's dream lives on through me and I will achieve it." Narumi said
"It does please me to see you guys so infatuated with becoming hokage, but speed it up. Start infusing chakra. We'll take down ten tails with an all out attack." Hashirama said
"Thanks, Sakura. For healing me. Now it's your turn to go get some rest. Let's go, Naruto." Narumi said and the both of them jumped away then Sakura landed next to them
"Sakura?" Narumi asked
"You think I can't keep up with you two? Is Lady Tsunade the only sannin to give inadequate training to her students? I'm almost there. I'll be at full capacity in a little bit. Then I can put out my true power. I'm a part of team 7 as well and a student of a legendary sannin." Sakura said and Narumi just smirked
"Good. I would hate to have a weak link on the team. Alright! Team 7 is finally back in action once again! Sakura, Naruto. Let's go!" Narumi said
"Right." Sakura said
"Yeah." Naruto said
"That sight sure brings back memories, right Shikamaru?" Ino asked
"Well, okay. I guess if he's willing to help us take down the enemy, I won't turn him away, but I don't accept him." Shikamaru said
"It's been awhile since our class has been together like this. Kind of feels like the chunin exams." Choji said
"I'M THE ONE WHOS GOING TO BE HOKAGE. HEY, IS ANYBODY LISTENING?" Kiba yelled
"Kiba, no one's paying attention. Frankly it's pitiful. Quit it. The reason is because the impact of Naruto suddenly showing up and declaring his intent to become hokage was much too great." Shino said
"Um, Kiba. I heard you loud and clear. All of us should aspire to become hokage." Hinata said
Come on you guys! Let's show 'em what we're made of." Narumi said
"Just hold up." Hashirama said as the ten tails created another tailed beast bomb
"This thing shouldn't be able to use any chakra with my chains holding it down." Kushina thought
"It's trying to break the barrier. Fellow past hokage, please focus and prepare yourselves." Minato said
"We know that." Hiruzen said
"Now then." Tobirama said
"We're gonna die!" Beast Boy said
"Will you calm down? We're not gonna die." Raven said, then the ten tails launched its tailed beast bomb and to everyone's shock and awe, the barrier was still standing
"The barrier held." Kiba said
"That thing's absolutely amazing. To be able to keep him trapped." Shikamaru said
"But where is the ten tails?" Ino asked and after the smoke cleared the ten tails was still standing
"That is not just some simple barrier." Hashirama said
"Wow." Narumi said
"The past hokage truly were incredible individuals." Sakura said
"Seems they weren't just all talk." Naruto said with a smirk
Wood style: wood clone jutsu
Hashirama created 5 wood clones and four of them went to the barrier while another one went over to Madara who wasn't interested in fighting a clone
"I'll make four entry points in the barrier so we can get in and out. Now follow me. Alright! Let's go!" Hashirama said and everyone jumped away
"Oh yeah!" Narumi said
"I'm not done yet." Hashirama said and went through hand signs
Sage art: gracious deity gates
Hashirama created an additional gate that went over the ten tails head and the shinobi forces charged in to attack. As they were charging in, the ten tails created different sized creatures to keep them away from its real body.
Naruto and Narumi went ahead of everyone and started taking out the creatures with relative ease. Sakura was watching on as Narumi kicked and punched through the creatures while Naruto used his sword to cut them in half. She knew she was strong and came a long way from when she was just a genin and decided she would no longer be stuck in their shadows. Then a diamond shaped seal appeared on her forehead.
"I finally reached full power and I can finally release it." Sakura said
She punched away a creature sending it flying past Naruto and Narumi. She decided to take lead and then jumped into the middle of the surrounding creatures and destroyed the ground with a single punch. She looked back at both of them and smirked.
"Dude, she punches like Starfire." Beast Boy said
"Remind me to never get on her bad side." Cyborg said as he blasted away some of the creatures
"Ah. What monstrous strength. It might be even greater than Tsuna's." Hashirama's clone said looking on
"Her continuous massing of chakra over three years requiring extremely delicate chakra control. The one hundred healing mark that I couldn't achieve." Shizune thought
"I don't have to waste any on a youthful appearance neither." Sakura said, getting cocky and then when the smoke cleared a huge creature was right in front of her
Wind style: rasenshuriken
Inferno style: flame control
The combined power between both attacks from Naruto and Narumi destroyed the creature and they saved Sakura. They jumped near her and stood together as a team.
"Thanks, Naruto." Sakura said
"Umm, hello? I'm here too, Sakura. I know he's been gone for three years, but sheesh. You don't have to get all googly eyed over him." Narumi said
"Look, don't drag us down, Narumi." Naruto said
"That's right. Keep complaining and I'll just grab the hokage seat for myself." Sakura said teasingly
"What?! No you will not." Narumi said
"We'll fight with our backs together." Sakura said and then had a smug grin on her face
"Lady Tsunade, I've finally caught up to the two of them." Sakura thought
"Wipe that smug look off your face. I know what you're thinking and it's not even true." Naruto said with a smirk
"How did you know?" Sakura asked
"I had the same look when I would train with Itachi and Shisui. I had that same smug look whenever I managed to get a hit on one of them." Naruto said and then looked at Narumi who looked back at him
"So that's what Kurama's chakra looks like under control." Naruto thought
"A new sharingan and black flames." Narumi thought looking at Naruto's Eternal Mangekyou sharingan
"That Narumi. She's even mastered changing the rasengans nature just like Naruto." Minato thought and smiled
"You ready, Raven?" Naruto thought
"For what?" Raven thought
"Drop your spell and let's take out some of these things together." Naruto thought
"You're the boss." Raven thought and cancelled her spell
"What are you doing, Raven?" Kushina asked
"Naruto wants to team up." Raven said
"How do you know?" Kushina asked
"He didn't tell you?" Raven asked
"Tell me what?" Kushina asked
"Uhh, nothing. I'll be going now." Raven said and flew away
Naruto & Raven
"Ready?" Naruto asked
"Let's go." Raven said
"What do we do, Naruto?" Robin asked
"It's time to go to work. If things get too difficult fall back. Don't try to take on more than you can handle." Naruto said
Naruto and Raven didn't say anything after that and charged into surrounding creatures. Raven created a Scythe with her powers and started to cut them down with ease. Naruto channeled wind chakra through his sword and cut down about 5 of them at once. Naruto created his lighting hammer then Raven covered it with her powers and used it to knock away some of the creatures round them before she threw it away and watched as it took out a few of the creatures as well. As the entire rookie 9 we're doing their own thing helping out, they couldn't really focus because how in sync Raven and Naruto were.
"Whoa. They're really good together." Ino said
"She is his girlfriend. It makes sense for them to fight together like that." Kushina said
"Girlfriend." Hinata thought sadly
Robin, Cyborg, Beast boy and Starfire were also in the middle of the fight. Robin was teamed up with Starfire and together they took out a lot of the creatures. Robin would use his bo-staff and explosives while Starfire would shoot them with her star blasts. Beast Boy would turn into any animal he could think off and either swat them away or crush them by stepping in them. Cyborg was using a combination of him punching and using his sonic cannon to take out a few of the creatures himself.
"Not that I'm complaining, but shouldn't we go after the big one in the back?" Beast Boy asked
"We need to clear these ones out first." Robin said
"Sai!" Narumi said and everyone looked up at the sky to see somebody falling then Narumi caught him
"It's no good. The number of enemies keeps increasing and some of them are huge." A random ninja said as they started to get overwhelmed
"Robin, Starfire, Beast Boy and Cyborg, fall back." Naruto said and they did as told
"These big ones sure are heavy." Hashirama's wood clone said holding on back
"Can you share your chakra with everyone again?" Sai asked Narumi
"Not right now. Kurama isn't done recharging his chakra." Narumi said
"To take down the main body, we need to mow down the big ones or find some way to slip past them. It's too far to reach in a single leap. We'll need time to weave signs and repel the enemy's attacks. Without your chakra, Narumi we could suffer heavy casualties and the medical core can't come here." Sai said
"What's the plan?" Robin asked
"Perhaps I can fly over them and attack the big one in the back." Starfire suggested
"No. We've got something even better." Narumi said as her, Sakura and Naruto bit their thumbs
"We need to mow them down and slip past them, huh? That'll be easy." Naruto said
"This guy can clear the distance in one leap and repel any enemy attacks to." Narumi said
"I can now stay near and heal anyone who suffers serious harm. At any time." Sakura said
Summoning jutsu
"Woah." Cyborg said
"I thought Naruto was joking when he said Garaga was huge." Beast Boy said
"Apparently he was telling the truth." Robin said as they were looking at three huge summoning creatures
"Hold on. This color. Wait a minute. You're Gamakichi!" Natsumi said
"Pops was tied up with some negotiations, so I came in his place instead. What? Are you surprised?" Gamakichi asked
"No. No. Not really, but man you sure have gotten big all of a sudden. It wasn't too long ago when you were able to fit on chief toads head." Narumi said
"It's just that you humans grow too slowly. That's all. So, what's the deal here anyway?" Gamakichi asked
"Right. Do you see that thing way in the back over there? Can you get me closer with some leaps?" Narumi asked pointing at the ten tails
"You uh, mean the biggest one?" Gamakichi asked
"That's right." Narumi said
"Lord Naruto, it's about time you called me. What is it that you desire?" Garaga asked
"I need you to just keep advancing forward while taking out some of these creatures. I'll get the real body in the back." Naruto said
"I think I'll go over to the rest of the army." Raven said and flew away
"Oh, Sakura my dear. You're able to invoke the hundred healings mark. Lady Tsunade would be so proud." Katsuyu said
"Lady Katsuyu. We don't have time. Please divide and attend to each one of the allied shinobi. Our job will be to heal everyone." Sakura said
"How impressive. I never thought I'd see the three way deadlock summoning again." Minato said
"Minato, is that Naruto on top of that snake?" Hiruzen asked
"Yes it is, lord third." Minato said
"Was he trained by Orochimaru?" Hiruzen asked
"No. From what I learned through the toads, the snake clan were in a civil war. Those who sided with Manda against those who were against him. I guess the snakes needed a new summoner and Naruto was chosen. I assume he is who they want to lead them amongst the new era." Minato said and Hiruzen nodded as he had flashbacks of Orochimaru, Tsunade and Jiraiya on top of their summons
"It is a new era!" Hiruzen thought
"NOW LET'S GO." Hiruzen yelled
"Garaga! Attack!" Naruto said and Garaga charged forward
"Lady Katsuyu, please proceed." Sakura said and Katsuyu broken down into smaller slugs
"Now jump, Gamakichi!" Narumi said and Gamakichi took off creating a huge gust of wind that made everyone cover their faces
"So this is the power of the original team 7." Sai thought
Garaga was going through the creatures with ease and was taking them out along with Naruto. Garaga was able to use fire chakra nature so his fangs were coated in fire and he would just rip any creature in his way to shreds. Gamakichi was flying through the air and the creatures started throwing sharp spear-like weapons at him. He took out his sword and easily deflected them all.
"Nice going Gamakichi. I always knew there was a reason I liked you." Narumi said
"Never mind that. Will you just hurry up and weave some jutsu signs? Come on! Do you want me to shake you off your head?" Gamakichi said
"You got bigger and so did your attitude. You're just like your father." Narumi thought
"Alright! Alright! I'm doing it!" Narumi said
"What the?" A random ninja said as all of the Katsuyu slugs were climbing on them
"It's alright. These slugs are part of the fifth hokage's healing jutsu." Shizune said
"Please, do not worry." A Katsuyu slug said
"My strength! It's being restored." A ninja said
"Her one hundred healing mark was only just activated and she's already able to perform Lady Katsuyu's long distance healing. Sakura, you are something else." Shizune thought
"Should we go in and help?" Beast Boy said
"No. They're going after the real body and we shouldn't interfere in what they are doing." Raven said
"Man, look at Naruto and Garaga. They're tearing through those things with no problem." Cyborg said
"Looks like they're about to have a problem." Robin said and pointed to a wall of spikes that the creatures created
"Lord Naruto, what should I do?" Garaga asked as he was coming up on the wall
"Just keep moving forward." Naruto said
He channeled lightning chakra through his sword and then cut off an arm to one of the creatures. He summoned his humanoid version of the Susanoo and cut through the wall with his sword. The sword then turned into a bow and Naruto created an arrow with his flame control ability. Meanwhile up in the air, Narumi created her own large attack.
"NARUTO." Narumi yelled and he just kept looking forward
"Go for it." Kiba thought
"Do it." Shino thought
"Hang in there." Hinata thought as she took out a few creatures
"Aim well." Shikamaru thought
"You can do it." Choji thought
"Give it to em." Ino thought
"Go get em guys." Sakura thought
"If only Menma were here. Go on Narumi, Naruto. Show that beast who's in charge now." Kushina thought and tears fell from her eyes
WIND STYLE: MASSIVE RASENSHURIKEN
INFERNO STYLE: SUSANOO FLAME CONTROL
Naruto and Narumi launched both of their attacks at the immobilized ten tails and then combined into an even bigger attack. The combined attacks hit the ten tails and it roared out in pain as it started to feel the burn from the jutsu. Narumi looked at Naruto who was staring at the ten tails as it roared in pain and had a flashback to when she was training with her mom.
Flashback
"Mom, if I were to fight Naruto with my new skills, would I win?" Narumi asked
"Why are you worried about him? I thought you wanted to bring Sasuke back to the village and he's the reason why you're training so hard?" Kushina asked
"I do. It's just that the last time we fought, Naruto wiped the floor with me before I used the fourth tail. I need to know if I'm close to his level now." Narumi said
"I'll be honest. Right now, I can't even defeat Naruto if I went all out against him." Kushina said
"Seriously?! How? He was always weak in the academy and then he just came to graduation all strong. I mean, yeah he beat Sasuke during the first day, but that was technically because Sasuke used ninjutsu. What did he do?" Narumi asked
"He was never weak in the academy. He just never wanted to showboat about being strong. As for what he did, he simply trained. Remember, he was trained by Shisui and Itachi Uchiha themselves before Shisui died and Itachi killed his clan. I'm sure they trained him to the ground and he kept that same mentality." Kushina said
"Will I ever surpass him?" Narumi asked
"I don't know. For all we know he could be the second coming of the sage of six paths. I'm not saying it's impossible for you to surpass him, but it won't be easy. He out classes you in every aspect of being a ninja except for your chakra reserves." Kushina said
"Yeah. He's a ninjutsu juggernaut. His taijutsu has always been better than mine. I'm not good at sealing and he can use genjutsu because of his stupid sharingan." Narumi said
"His genjutsu is good even without his sharingan. Instead of worrying about how strong he is, how about you just focus on becoming as strong as you possibly can?" Kushina asked
"I guess you're right. Is there anything he can't do?" Narumi asked
"He can't use earth style ninjutsu." Kushina said
"Perfect. Can you teach me how to manipulate earth chakra?" Narumi asked
"I guess I can do that." Kushina said
"Yes! That's something I'll have that he doesn't." Narumi said
"That's not all you have that he doesn't." Kushina said
"It's not?" Narumi asked
"No. You have knowledge passed down from myself, Minato, Tsunade, Jiraiya and Kakashi. Naruto has only learned what I was able to teach him. In a way, you're smarter than him, but he is no slouch either." Kushina said
"Yes! Take that, Naruto! I'm still smarter than you." Narumi said and then got sad
"What's wrong?" Kushina asked
"It's just that with Menma being gone, Naruto is the only brother I have left. I mean I know we have Mito, but Naruto's the oldest. I was such a bitch to him growing up and now he hates me. I just wish I could tell him I'm sorry for how I acted and bring the family back together." Narumi said
"Narumi, look at me. Naruto doesn't hate you. Maybe you should give him some time to be on his own. I'll tell you a secret. When I send him letters to check up on him, he does ask about you sometimes. I think he feels nothing towards you similar to how he was with me before I changed. If he ever comes back, you should try talking to him. Maybe he'll come around with you." Kushina said
"I guess you're right." Narumi said
Flashback end
"Woah! They got it!" Beast boy said
"Wonderful! Perhaps now we can move forward with our attacks." Starfire said
"Not with those flames we can't." Raven said
"So well just throw some water on them and put out the fire." Beast Boy said
"Those aren't ordinary flames. The only way to put out those flames is if Naruto does so himself. The black flames are known as the Amaterasu and they burn for seven days and seven nights. No matter how much water you use, they won't be extinguished." Raven said
"So we have to wait?! I don't want to wait!" Cyborg said and then a portal opened underneath him causing him to disappear
"Where'd he go?!" Beast Boy asked
"I sent his ass back to the tower. Do you want to join him?" Naruto asked
"Well, I can't exactly leave him alone. I wouldn't be a very good friend if I did." Beast boy said and the same thing happened to him
"Sheesh. Naruto is still a bastard I see." Kiba said
"Shut up, Kiba. If it weren't for Naruto showing up then we'd be dead since the kages are down and the reanimated hokages are holding the ten tails. If Madara was able to take out the five kages alone, we stand no chance." Ino said
"She's right, Kiba." Shino said
"I've never seen such flame control before and they combined jutsus with matching chakra ratios." Tobirama thought
"That's hard to do even for a seasoned duo." Tobirama said as he was impressed
"A shuriken like a windmill and an arrow that's blacker than lacker. We'll call it Scorch Style: Nimbus Gale Jet-Black Arrow Formation: Zero." Minato said
"Seriously Minato?" Kushina asked with a blank face and he just chuckled
"Nah. Nevermind." Minato said
"You heard it, didn't you? What Naruto said earlier. What do you think his true intentions are?" Sai asked Raven who was standing next to him
"I don't know. Sometimes it's hard to tell with him." Raven said
"So you don't know, yet you keep working with him. Why's that?" Sai asked
"The answer is simple. I've been friends with him for years and he may have secrets, but his intentions have never been evil. He's a good person." Raven said
"Hey, Naruto! There's still other tailed beasts inside that gigantic one. So get rid of those black flames when it's weakened and Kurama and I will pull them out." Narumi said
"It's going to take a while for that to happen." Naruto said
"Don't you get it?! If we don't save them now, then we're going to have a lot of trouble later on!" Narumi said
"I understand that, but look at it." Naruto said pointing at the ten tails who severed the burning part of its body
"Well, there goes my plan." Narumi thought and then a swirling vortex appeared
"What the hell? Who's using the kamui?" Naruto asked and then somebody fell out of the swirling vortex badly injured
"Looks like that is of no use to me anymore. I had wanted to fight Hashirama before I became a jinchuriki. I guess I'll have no choice." Madara thought and held up a hand sign causing rods to appear from the person's body
"My body." The person thought
"Narumi, who is that?" Naruto asked
"His name is Obito Uchiha." Narumi said
"It's time to make him bring me back with rinne-rebirth." Madara thought
"Obito, do you finally realize that you were merely a backup for my rebirth? It's time to have you repay your debt right now." Madara said and Obito started to yell out in pain
"Lads, you're all closer. Go stop the jutsu of the one on top of the ten tails right now." Hashirama said
"Okay! We got it!" Narumi said and then Garaga went charging right at the ten tails, but was grabbed by an extra arm that formed on the ten tails body trapping him
"Garaga, that's enough. Head on back to your home." Naruto said and activated his Susanoo then shot another flame control arrow at Obito, but it was blocked by the three black rods on his arms
"Dammit." Naruto said as he landed and pulled out sword intending to kill Obito, but Minato beat him to it and slashed Obito with a kunai
"He must've marked him already somehow, but he's been holding the barrier." Naruto said
"Obito." Minato said
"S-sensei." Obito said
"Obito. So it was you." Minato said
"What do you mean?" Naruto asked
"My mark. He's the person from the nine tails attack. As you should know, the Hiraishin marking never disappears. I've only marked three people in recent memory. An Iwa ninja during the third shinobi war to save Kakashi, Killer Bee the eight tails jinchuriki and the masked man who was responsible for the nine tails attack." Minato said
"So, this is the son of a bitch that nearly killed my mother. It seems that team 7 has a thing for one of its team members becoming a rogue ninja." Naruto said pulling out his sword again
"What are you doing?" Minato asked
"What's it look like? I'm going to kill him. Madara can't come back alive if he's dead. We kill him, seal Madara, this big thing and then this fight will be over. Kind of anti-climactic if you ask me." Naruto said
"What exactly makes you think this war is over?" Obito asked as the ten tails started to shake and he sunk into it
"Aww shit." Naruto thought as he jumped off of the ten tails
"What's going on?!" Minato asked
"Is the ten tails transforming again or something?!" Narumi asked
"No. That's not what's happening. Obito must've kept control over his body and now he's absorbed the ten tails." Naruto said
"Wait, you don't mean?" Narumi asked
"Yes, that's exactly what I mean. He's become the ten tails jinchuriki." Naruto said
Shinobi army
"Hinata, do you see it?" Sakura asked
"Yes." Hinata said
"Can you explain what exactly happened?" Sakura asked
"The ten tails has been completely absorbed into that man. Based on its chakra." Hinata said
Naruto & Narumi
"That guy is the ten tails jinchuriki?" Narumi asked
"Yeah. If I had to guess, then this is why Madara was trying to have him revive him. Madara must've known about the ten tails already and wanted to become the ten tails jinchuriki himself." Naruto said
"He looks even creepier than before." Narumi said
"That's not important right now." Naruto said
"Naruto, how can you tell he's the ten tails jinchuriki?" Narumi asked
"I felt 7 different chakra signatures going inside of Obito." Naruto said and then the gracious deity gates slammed on too Obito
"Even if you become a jinchuriki, the gracious deity gates are still in play." Hashirama thought
"Awesome." Narumi said and then Obito broke out of the gracious deity gates, then broke the barrier that was keeping the ten tails trapped
"Obito! That's enough! You need to stop this now!" Minato demanded and then the first three hokages landed
"I'll be blunt. This guy is stronger than I am." Hashirama said
"No offense intended, but it appears to be true." Hiruzen said
"Even if you absorb your remaining clones, you're no match, older brother." Tobirama said and then Naruto landed in front of them
"Naruto, what are you doing?!" Narumi asked
"I want to test something out." Naruto said as he saw Obito create two black orbs on his hands
"Those look dangerous. Can't be touched by one of those." Naruto thought
"No matter what you try, it won't work." Obito said
"Then I guess that means I'll have to try even harder." Naruto said and then sped off breaking some of the gate he was standing on
"He was able to break the gracious deity gate? It's not completely destroyed like this man did, but to accomplish such a feat is simply astonishing." Hashirama thought
"He's fast." Narumi thought
"He's even faster than me." Minato thought
They looked on as Naruto summoned a giant shuriken and threw it at Obito who was ready to counter. Naruto used the shuriken shadow clone jutsu and that one shuriken turned into 50. Naruto channeled lightning chakra into the shurikens and Obito simply rushed forward with his own impressive speed and destroyed all of the shurikens. As Obito was about to hit Naruto with one of those black things he created, Naruto vanished and Obito was kicked away by Naruto who disappeared again. Obito stood up unharmed and flew into the sky looking down at Naruto.
"You wanna take this to the skies? Fine, I'll play your little game." Naruto said and flew up to Obito
"WHAT THE HELL? HOW CAN HE FLY?" Narumi asked
"Any ideas Minato?" Hiruzen asked
"Nope. As far as I know unless you use the Tsuchikage's jutsu it's impossible to fly." Minato said
"He's impressive for his age. Even his power may be greater than mine as well." Hashirama said
"Surely you're joking elder brother." Tobirama said and Hashirama stayed silent
"The question remains. How does he do it?" Kushina asked as she landed next to Minato and then Raven appeared
"He uses his wind chakra as you would call it. I don't know how, but he figured it out by accident one day when he was training and it took him a while to actually master it." Raven said
"That's simply unheard of." Hiruzen said in amazement
"Then how can Obito fly?" Minato asked
"It's gravity manipulation. That's one of the powers of the rinnegan. Obito apparently has access to that power. The leader of the akatsuki, Pain, was able to fly with the rinnegan as well." Narumi said
"They're about to start." Raven said and everyone looked up
Naruto flew at Obito with amazing speeds and before Obito could get his guard up, Naruto punched him hard in the face with a chakra enhanced fist and Obito was sent flying away. Obito recovered and sent black rods at Naruto who easily avoided them, but not the fist Obito sent at him that caught him right on the jaw. Naruto was sent flying back before he corrected himself in the air. He didn't want to make this a long fight because he was simply looking for a weakness in this new form of Obito and he thinks he found out what it was after their brief scuffles.
He created two lightning hammers and tossed one in the air then hit it with the other sending it at Obito. Like Naruto expected him to, Obito puts up a defense shield with the same black substance he used before and blocks the first lightning hammer. Naruto waited for the right moment and then threw the second one at Obito as soon as he saw the shield coming down. Obito wasn't expecting this so the lightning hammer was right in his face, but Naruto sent a pulse of chakra and caused it to explode temporarily blinding him. Naruto quickly appeared behind Obito and lightly touched him on his back then appeared next to Narumi who was just looking at him with her mouth wide open.
"You should close that before something unpleasant ends up in there." Naruto said and Narumi had a severe blush on her face
"SHUT UP." Narumi yelled
"Naruto, did you figure out what you wanted?" Hiruzen asked
"Yeah. He's gotten so strong that his guard is always down. He never expects an assault from behind, but the problem is nothing we do is able to damage him." Naruto said
"Is that all?" Tobirama asked
"No. He can only use those black things for a certain period of time. Whatever it is, it's dangerous. If you rush in to attack, be on guard and don't let them touch you." Naruto said
"You know what they do?" Narumi asked
"No and I don't want to find out." Naruto said and then Obito started to fly at them, but he swelled up and fell to the ground
"I guess you did more damage than you thought." Narumi said
"No. That's not because of me." Naruto said
"I see. Ten tails hasn't completely synced with its jinchuriki yet. This is my chance to take it down." Minato's shadow clone thought and ran forward
"I'll summon my original here then." The clone said and the real Minato appeared at his side
"It's been a while, but it's time for my Rasen-Flash Super-Circle Dance Howl Stage Three." Minato said as he prepared six of his tri-pronged kunai and then Narumi felt something underground
"GAMAKICHI, BELOW." Narumi yelled
It was too late as Obito sent Gamakichi flying back to the ground. Narumi was falling out of the air and Obito went to stab her, but his attack was blocked by the hand of Naruto's Susanoo. While Minato and his shadow clone were distracted, Obito kicked both of them away from his body and then had an intense stare down with Naruto.
"You won't touch her as long as I'm around." Naruto said
Obito didn't respond and just grabbed both of them by their face. He was about to stab them, but Starfire and Raven came in and saved them by throwing star bolts along with Raven throwing her own attacks at Obito that forced him to retreat. Naruto grabbed Narumi and they vanished back near Gamakichi.
"Thanks for the save. I thought we were done for." Narumi said
"Sure." Raven said
"You are the most welcome." Starfire said
"I felt you trying to use the hiraishin, what happened?" Naruto asked Minato
"My marks on him have disappeared somehow." Minato said
"How's that possible? Only you and I know the hiraishin and how to remove its mark." Naruto said
"I don't know." Minato said and Obito started to swell up again
"Ugh. What is that?" Narumi asked
"We have to take him down while he's still unable to use his body." Minato said and Obito fired on of his black orbs that exploded
"Was he after your clone just now, dad?" Narumi asked
"No. I don't think that's what he's going for." Minato said and once the smoke cleared, Obito was missing half of his body
"What just happened?" Narumi asked
"He hit himself with his own attack." Naruto said
"The attack missed its target. It seems Obito's consciousness is nearly clinging onto the ten tails great power. He barely has control of it. Now I'll get in my Rasen-Flash Super-Circle Dance Howl Stage Three. I'll create an opening then you two hit him with your strongest combo." Minato said and started his attack, but then Obito gained control again.
"It's about time, sensei." Obito said then blocked Minato's kunai with a black rod breaking in in the process and then chopped his arm off
"Dad, no!" Narumi said
"Focus, Narumi." Naruto said and Minato appeared in front of them
"He may have got me, but I escaped with the Hiraishin." Minato said
"Are you sure?" Obito asked and pointed at his arm and Minato saw a black orb where his arm used to be
"When did he? He attached it so it would teleport along with me." Minato said and the orb started to glow then Naruto summons his Susanoo around him and Narumi
"I'll have to teleport it away with me." Minato said, but then Tobirama appeared, grabbed the orb and vanished next to Obito placing his hand on his shoulder
"Here. You can have this back." Tobirama said and vanished with Obito
"That blast may still reach over here if we don't keep it contained!" Narumi said
"Raven." Naruto thought
"I got it." Raven replied as flew over to where Tobirama took Obito
"What's she doing?" Minato asked
"Containing the explosion." Naruto said and then a giant black barrier was formed as soon as the explosion happened and Narumi gasped as she thought Tobirama was inside of the blast
"Don't worry. I only sent a shadow clone over there. I marked him earlier while Naruto was fighting him." Tobirama said as he appeared
"That's amazing. You copied my dad's move. Nice one second face guy." Narumi said
"Lord fourth is actually using my move. Plus, that is lord second to you." Tobirama said
"Huh?" Narumi asked
"Tobirama Senju was the one who invented the hiraishin jutsu. Only three people know how to use it and you're looking at the only three. Minato took it to another level and then I did the same, but my version only works on places I've been to." Naruto said
"Why does it only work like that?" Tobirama asked
"Because I have to quickly think of the place and then I'm instantly there since my chakra residue will be there already." Naruto said
"That's ingenious." Tobirama said and then the ground started to shake
"What's going on?!" Narumi asked
"Madara and Hashirama are fighting." Naruto said
"Did we get him?" Gamakichi asked looking at the smoke and then a larger version of the black orbs appeared revealing Obito who was unharmed
"He blocked it. He's fast. It's just as Naruto said earlier, we can't hit him with ordinary jutsu." Tobirama said
"We'll have to use my Rasen-Flash Super-Circle Dance Howl Stage Three. I'll create an opening for us all with it." Minato said
"You're a bit of a comedian, aren't you? I would usually make fun of your jutsu names, but this guy is no joke." Tobirama said
Amaterasu
Naruto summoned his Amaterasu and sent them at Obito who just blocked them with one of his orbs that turned into a staff.
"Naruto, Narumi. I said I'll create the opening for you!" Minato said
"Well you're moving too slow. I'll create an opening." Naruto said
"No way. We'll both create an opening and let dad and the others be the main act." Narumi said
"I saw you amassing chakra in your left eye. Hardly a surprise attack." Obito said
"That's because it wasn't supposed to be a surprise attack. We're attacking you straight on, dumbass." Naruto said
"Should you really be making him angry?" Narumi asked and Naruto didn't respond
"So frustrating." Minato said and Tobirama place a hand on his shoulder
"Come on fourth, let's go. A shadow clones Hiraishin will be too slow. Let's combine and reciprocate our Hiraishin. Go on and put your mark on me as well." Tobirama said they both marked each other
"Yes sir. Plus, with these bodies we can still move after we're hit." Minato said
"Narumi, this time I'll match you chakra level using my sharingan." Naruto said
"Okay I get it." Narumi said
Narumi created a Rasenshuriken while Naruto used his flame control ability, making a flame controlled Rasenshuriken. Tobirama appeared behind Obito, while Minato appeared in front of Naruto and Narumi who hit him with their combined attack. Obito was then placed in front of them with the combined powers of Minato and Tobirama's Hiraishin jutsu. Obito was sent flying back and all everyone could see while looking on was a huge wall of black flames.
"Alright!" Narumi said
"So did you guys get him?" Gamakichi asked
"We made a direct hit before those black things could protect him. I'm pretty sure he felt that." Tobirama said
"It didn't work. Starfire! Hit him with your star bolts!" Naruto said
"Okay!" Starfire said and flew at Obito shooting him with her strongest star bolts that weren't doing much damage, but you could see a few scrapes
"I do not think I am succeeding." Starfire said as she landed near Naruto
"No, you did just fine. Your attacks do work, but it's not strong enough. I'm guessing his new form wasn't made for your kind of attacks, but you need to be stronger to do significant damage to him." Naruto said
"Maybe I should try using my powers." Raven said and the Obito flew into the air
"Her attacks worked a bit, but ours had no effect at all." Tobirama said
"We have to avoid those black transforming spheres and outside of that girl Starfire, none of our attacks have any effect on him. His offense and defense are so fast." Minato said
"He's starting to piss me off." Naruto said as he and Narumi joined Minato and Tobirama
"He's even more perfect than how I'd imagine myself in my dream." Narumi said
"He's clearly not perfect. The four of us are pretty much faster than him, but we can't do any kind of damage to him. That and he's always open for attacks from behind." Naruto said
"There's something odd." Tobirama said looking at Minato
"What is it?" Minato asked
"You only lost your arm. Dust should be swirling around to restore it. Our reanimated bodies aren't regenerating." Tobirama said and Minato looked at his arm
"I now possess the same power the founder of shinobi possessed. You can no longer measure me to the standards you're used to." Obito said
"I got it. He's using a jutsu based on yin-yang style that nullifies all ninjutsu. In short when he hits your reanimated body, you won't regenerate. You could even die. Also, I'm assuming that right arm of yours is permanently gone." Naruto said
"So we'll have to fight him even more carefully." Minato said
"Since ninjutsu won't work this'll be tricky." Tobirama said
"How about physical attacks?" Minato asked
"Won't work. I fought him earlier with taijutsu and ninjutsu. Nothing worked and with his new orbs, a physical attack is out of the question unless you can nullify them." Naruto said
"Naruto, me and you are going to have to take the lead on this one. Think you can keep up?" Narumi asked
"Don't even try it. You're not even faster than me with you nine tails chakra mode." Naruto said
"Whatever. I'll keep up my Kurama mode and enter deeper into my tailed beast state." Narumi said as she started to change and then completely lost her tailed beast state
"What the hell are you doing?" Naruto asked
"Uh-oh." Narumi said
"Are you trying to make things even worse? You're as goofy as your father. So much so that even he's dumbfounded." Tobirama said and Naruto noticed Narumi spaced out
"She must be talking to Kurama." Naruto thought
Syrup gun
Gamakichi spit out a large amount of sticky water with incredible force at Obito who blocked it with his black orbs.
"What was that, Gamakichi? If you wanna make a move do a diversion or combo or something." Narumi said
"Sorry, Narumi. I'm rapidly approaching the time limit for the summoning. I just wanted to repay that guy with a little parting shot." Gamakichi said and Naruto narrowed his eyes at Obito
"He's planning something. That last attack must've given him an idea." Tobirama thought as he watched Naruto deactivate his sharingan and close his eyes
"That's alright. Head on back and get some rest. I appreciate your help." Narumi said
"Sorry about all of this." Gamakichi said and left
"Huh." Narumi as she saw the results of Gamakichi's attack
"Obito I thought what you wanted was to become hokage! Why are you doing this?!" Minato asked
"You want to know why?! You're going to lecture me now. A bit late for that, sensei. Don't you think? You're always too late when it matters most. I'm glad my teacher was hokage. It made it easy to give up on becoming hokage." Obito said and Minato thought back to when Obito attacked the leaf village
"If only I had realized that man was Obito. I may have been able to stop him. Then I probably would have been able to prevent so much death that day and Naruto wouldn't have grown up with such hatred towards the people of the leaf village. I never would've made him into the village pariah. He never would've left the village and we could've been a happy family. Even Menma would still be alive. Perhaps the shinobi world wouldn't have ended up like this either." Minato thought
"You were my teacher and yet you didn't realize it was me. That's just who you are fundamentally. How pathetic. The third hokage gave up his life and you were made the hero. Now you're dead and you're exposed as a disgrace in front of your children. That's right. A hokage is a pitiful existence compared to what I am now." Obito said and Tobirama looked at Narumi who most likely had the same idea as Naruto
"Apparently she's not a total goofball. She must've came up with the same solution as her brother." Tobirama thought as he saw both of them combine their rasengans together and their eyes changed
"You have no right to make fun of the hokage when you couldn't even become one. Especially not my dad who actually was hokage." Narumi said and then vanished when Naruto placed a hand on her shoulder
"How dare you put him down!" Narumi said as she slammed their combined rasengan into Obito's back and watched as it did damage to him
"It's effective. So it is just as I thought. Ninjutsu may not work, but sage jutsu does. The toad from mt. Myoboku used a sage jutsu and his attack wasn't nullified or erased." Tobirama thought as he was Obito fall to the ground
Shinobi force
"Amazing Naruto and Narumi!" Hinata said
"What's going?" Sakura asked
"Their sage jutsu is working." Hinata said and Sakura smirked
"Woo-hoo! Kick his ass kids!" Kushina cheered
"Kushina, wasn't Obito your favorite student of Minato?" Hiruzen asked
"He was, but that all changed. He's the bastard who tried to kill me and my family the day they were born. He deserves everything that's coming to him. Now that they've found a weakness in his new form, he's about to get his ass kicked." Kushina said
"Lady Kushina I don't mean to be a bother, but Narumi is no longer in sage mode and I doubt she'll have the chance to sit still and enter sage mode again." Hinata said as she was looking on with her Byakugan
"Narumi won't, but Naruto can. He has another form of sage mode from the snakes. I think that's part of the reason why he sent the green bean back to his dimension since he tries to attack Naruto when he enters his second form of sage mode." Kushina said
"Second form of sage mode?" Hiruzen asked
"I've never seen it in person, but from the way he described it, it sounds a lot more powerful than the toad sage mode that Narumi uses. I'm going to see it in person." Kushina said and ran towards the fight
Naruto & Narumi
"I can't believe they're both sages at this age. Narumi has mastered the same sage mode as Jiraiya sensei. Naruto has apparently mastered the snake sage mode as well." Minato thought
"Yes I knew it! Just like I thought!" Narumi said
"I can't believe that the ten tails jinchuriki has such a weakness and with the ten tails inside me, I can't pass through things either. How frustrating." Obito thought
"So sage powered attacks will work. When I tried to gauge the ten tails power, it was nature energy itself. So maybe you can counter nature energy with nature energy. Man I am so glad that I learned sage mode. He's gonna catch a frog punch to the face!" Narumi said
"I feel like I'm fighting alongside my elder brother with these two. Narumi was able to figure out how to use the Hiraishin along with Naruto and they've both mastered sage mode." Tobirama thought and then Obito rose from the ground
"It worked, but he's already recovered and is now guarding his back." Tobirama said
"I should start preparing for the infinite tsukuyomi, so let's tidy things up." Obito said and then a giant tree came from the ground
"There truly is nothing that's worth saving in this reality. This whole world is already dead." Obito said as the tree started to create tailed beast balls
"We'd need one person to teleport each of those with the Hiraishin. The fourth, Naruto and I can get three, but that would leave one and I don't know if the allied shinobi forces can hold off another one." Tobirama said
"Raven, do you think you can hold off another tailed beast bomb?" Naruto thought
"Yeah. I think I can." Raven thought and Naruto looked at her, but she was breathing heavy
"What's wrong?" Naruto thought
"Holding off that ten tails thing, holding back a tailed beast bomb earlier and then creating a barrier to keep that explosion from reaching us earlier wasn't exactly easy." Raven thought
"I see. Don't worry about it then. We'll figure something out." Naruto thought
"No, I can do it." Raven thought
"No, you can't. I'll send you, Robin and Starfire back to the tower to recover. I have a feeling this is about to get ugly." Naruto thought
"I'm stronger than I look. I can handle this." Raven thought
"Raven, I'm sending you back. I'd rather have you alive then potentially risk losing you." Naruto thought
"If you're staying then I'm staying." Raven thought and Naruto sighed
"Starfire can you come here?" Naruto asked
"Yes, friend Naruto?" Starfire asked and Naruto whispered in her ear
"Can you do that for me?" Naruto asked
"I do not know." Starfire said
"Starfire, please. This needs to be done." Naruto said and Starfire sighed
"Okay. I shall do it." Starfire said and flew towards Raven and Robin
"Thank you." Naruto said
"Friends, I have a message from Naruto. It's in regards to our next plan of attack." Starfire said
"What is it, Starfire?" Robin asked and then Starfire knocked both of them out
"It is done, friend Naruto. You may send us back now." Starfire said and Naruto opened the portal for Starfire to walk through then closed it
"Why'd you do that?!" Narumi asked
"You wouldn't understand." Naruto said
"You can't pick and choose who to keep safe." Tobirama said
"I'm not. This was never their fight anyway. I sent them back to recover. Right now we need a plan to stop those things." Naruto said, pointing at the tailed beast bombs that were nearly finished and then Obito created six black rods that created a giant red barrier around everybody trapping them inside
"This is the endgame." Obito said as he protected himself with his black orbs
"All we can do is teleport them outside the barrier with the Hiraishin. Lord fourth, Naruto, can you each take one of them?" Tobirama asked
"We can, but we don't know if all of them are shooting at once or in rapid succession. However, I think there's another way." Minato said
"You intend to teleport the stalk itself outside the barrier. You think I'd allow that. You cannot save anyone now." Obito said
"Narumi, I don't know if this idea will work, but I have an idea. I need to speak with Kurama." Naruto said and held out his fist
"Okay." Narumi said and fist bumped Naruto
Narumi's mindscape
"It seems we have a guest, Narumi." Kurama said with a grin
"Cut the shit, Kurama. I need to know if you have enough chakra to share with everyone now." Naruto said
"No. Without my other half it takes me a while to gather chakra. I need a few more minutes before everything is ready." Kurama said
"So we're basically dead." Narumi said
"No. Remember that small amount of chakra you left inside of me?" Naruto asked
"Yeah. What about it?" Kurama asked
"I've been feeding it my own chakra causing it to grow over the past year. It's probably as much as 6 tails worth of chakra now. Would that help out?" Naruto asked and Kurama thought about it
"Hmm. That could work. You'd need to make contact with me so I can absorb the chakra from you. It might be painful since this chakra is unstable since it didn't have a median." Kurama said and Naruto placed his hand on Kurama
"Yeah, I kind of figured that." Naruto said and then grunted in pain as Kurama started to absorb the chakra
"That looks painful." Narumi said
"That's because it is!" Naruto said
"Quit whining. I'm almost finished. I only need a few more seconds." Kurama said and then after a few seconds he was done
"You made that hurt on purpose. I know you did." Naruto said and exited her mindscape
"Why did you leave chakra inside of him?" Narumi asked
"To contact him later on. I'm the one who gave him the heads up on the war." Kurama said and kicked Narumi out her mind
Real world
"Narumi, Naruto what just happened?" Minato asked
"Thanks to Naruto, Kurama just reached full power and I'll need your help with what I have in mind." Narumi said
"Narumi, Naruto face it. Minato is useless. He was barely able to save your mother. He wasn't even strong enough to save his subordinates. You know what tomorrow is, don't you?" Obito asked
"Dude! Shut the fuck up! All you're doing is talking! Of course I know what tomorrow is. It's my damn birthday. The day you personally ruined for the first 7-8 years of my life. It's also the day you nearly had my mother killed 17 years ago. After we get out of this, I'm personally going to kick your ass!" Naruto said as his Uzumaki temper started to show
"Naruto sure has grown very strong. To think he's only about to be 17 and he's already stronger than me." Minato thought
"Let's go!" Narumi said and entered her tailed beast state then everyone from earlier was covered in a cloak of nine tails chakra. She even gave a chakra cloak to Naruto
"That won't help you withstand the shockwave of 4 ten tails tailed beast bombs exploding together. Now you will all be gone." Obito said as he was completely protected and the tailed beast bombs were launched causing a huge explosion in the barrier
"I guess this chakra has protected us once again." Choji said
"Not quite. Check it out you guys." Shikamaru said
"Choji, there. All of us are outside the barrier." Ino said
"Teleportation jutsu." Shino said
"Damn! Narumi managed to master that jutsu as well." Kiba said
"This isn't only Narumi's chakra." Hinata said
"Well done, Narumi." Tobirama said
"What did you do?" Minato asked
"Nothing much. Naruto just teleported everyone outside of the barrier. From what I can tell about the Hiraishin you can't teleport anything that you or your chakra isn't touching. Naruto had the idea, but needed everyone to have some of his chakra to do it. Kurama left him some chakra so Naruto infused it with mine and then the chakra cloaks everyone else has is included with his chakra as well. If we were all indirectly in contact it would work. So I connected his chakra with Kurama and mine. That's all there was to it." Narumi said
"He was using the principle of the shadow clones. Even if you split up and disperse your chakra, if you keep even a little bit there without putting it out, when the original body infuses chakra again to regain control all the individual chakra bits resonate and link. In short, joining her chakra with his, Narumi effectively linked Naruto to the rest of his chakra that was residing in everyone else. That right, Narumi?" Tobirama asked
"When you put it like that I guess it makes more sense. Old man second, you sure do know a lot about my shadow clones." Narumi said
"I created that jutsu! So it's my jutsu!" Tobirama said
"Naruto, that was your version of the Hiraishin wasn't it? I noticed there isn't a marker out there." Minato said
"I do have a marker out there." Naruto said and pointed to a kunai in front of Hinata
"When did you put that there?" Narumi asked
"My teachers always taught me to plan ahead. Think of that as a safety measure. I put it there once the four hokages used the four crimson barrier." Naruto said and his kunai came flying to his hand
"He can even recall his kunai back to him? He is without a doubt one hell of a shinobi." Tobirama thought
"I feel power swelling up inside me! Come on! Let's go!" Narumi said and rushed into battle
"She's such a dumbass." Naruto thought as he entered sage mode and then kept gathering nature chakra
"Narumi! Shouting and showing off is all well and good, don't tell me you've forgotten that nothing other than sage jutsu is going to work against this guy! I know you're not an idiot." Tobirama said and Narumi stopped right in her tracks
"THAT'S RIGHT. I COMPLETELY FORGOT." Narumi yelled making Tobirama sigh
"Okay, you're a bigger idiot than my elder brother." Tobirama said
"No matter what you do, it won't work." Obito said as the smoke cleared
"Narumi, get back." Naruto said
"Why?" Narumi asked
"Because I told him after we survived this that I'll kick his ass and that's what I'm going to do." Naruto said as he entered his second version of sage mode
"So that's what it looks like." Kushina said as she appeared next to him
"What is that?" Narumi said
"Snake sage mode. This version is a lot stronger than your toad sage mode." Naruto said
"Fine. Have all the fun." Narumi said pouting
"Instead of pouting, you should drop the tailed beast state so Kurama can gather as much chakra as he can. Usually I can use this version for 15 minutes, but I don't think it'll last that long against him." Naruto said and Narumi nodded
"Good luck." Narumi said and Naruto just walked forward
"The lone hero who couldn't hack it in his own village so he ran away. What do you hope to gain from this? Are you out for revenge? Your mother is alive and from the looks of it you have a girlfriend that's also alive." Obito said
"So." Naruto said
"So, I'm doing this for a reason. I'm doing this to see my precious Rin again. You have no business in this war and you will lose!" Obito said
"Rin? As in Rin Nohara the female from your old team 7?" Naruto asked
"Yes. She was the love of my life, but we were never able to be together because she was killed by Kakashi. Your very own sensei is the cause of this!" Obito said
"Wait a minute. Are you seriously telling me you started a war over a girl? You nearly killed my mother because of a girl that barely noticed you?! Oh I'm really going to kick your ass now." Naruto said
"You are nothing more than a nuisance and you must be put down. I'll deal with you and after I'm done, I'll finish off your family then start my plans." Obito said
No more words were spoken as they had a stare down with each other and you could feel the tension brewing between them. Obito created his staff again and Naruto pulled out his sword.
