《Reborn into Naruto with full Hollowfication!》 Chapter 1- An unfortunate/fortunate demise? In a random corner in the library of X medical university you could find student David Moore studying for his medical school finals. David had not slept for 3 days straight hoping to cram whatever he could for the exam that the last 6 years of his life has been building up to. ¡°The exam is in 10 minutes¡± he looked at the time on his phone as a sense a confidence overtook him. ¡°Hahahahaha there¡¯s nothing in that exam that I can¡¯t answer!¡± he proudly declared. ¡°Mom, dad your sons going to make you proud!¡± As he was walking down the stairs he tripped and fell towards his death ¡°AAAAAAAaaaah-¡°at that moment David was caught by a fellow student as he fell ¡°ah?¡± ¡°Watch where you are going, that fall could have killed you!¡± says random junior ¡°mhh sorry I must be excited because of the exam¡± I made my way down the steps and walked towards the examination building only to feel a sharp pain in my chest and a numb left hand all I could think was heart attack and everything faded to black. I suddenly woke up to find random junior giving me CPR ¡°Good you survived I thought you looked a bit weak after you almost fell down the stairs so I followed you¡± I looked at my phone 2 minutes until the exam; I almost died twice in 8 minutes! Let me go to the school office and request a retake on a later date. ¡±thank you mysterious future super doctor junior you have saved my life twice¡±Ensure your favorite authors get the support they deserve. Read this novel on Royal Road. As I made my way to the office I couldn¡¯t help but feel as is the grim reaper was impatiently waiting for me, as though I was delaying his time table for the day. As I thought this from the corner of my eye I saw it. This monster is one which defies common sense; no matter how strong a main character is they will always lose to him. The monster with 12659 wins and no losses finally appears to finish the job All I could do is scream its name before my time finally comes to an end ¡°TRUCK-CHAAAAAAAAAaaaaaaaan¡­..!¡± I floated into the white light [Hmm so this is death] I thought [Yes it is] a man in an all black suit replied me; his orange hair reminded me of someone but I just couldn¡¯t remember. [My name is Ichigo Kurosaki and I¡¯m a substitute Shinigami] for some reason I thought of the word bleach? He continued to speak within my mind [sorry Orihime will kill me if I miss Chads boxing match so I had to hurry along your death] [I¡¯m sorry my death delayed your dinner plans] I said sarcastically [No problem ok David Boore time to send you to hell] he totally ignored my sarcasm, ait did he say hell! And what¡¯s up with that name [My name is David Moore Kurosaki-san please don¡¯t send me to hell, all I wanted in life was to save people] [¡­!] His face turned white after I said my name, he looked like he had seen a ghost, wait am I a ghost? [David Moore¡­hehehe looks like I made a mistake] if I had a jaw it would have dropped at this moment [Ok David let¡¯s keep this between you and me] he said while giving me a sleazy smile and moving into the posture of a conman turned thug [You see David I¡¯m a hardworking reaper and I don¡¯t want that annoying Renji to give me grief about a little mistake I made (the guys bankai is a joke)] [so this is what I¡¯m going to do, I send you to a nice new world filled with fantasy and give you a nice power boost so you don¡¯t fall behind. I¡¯ll give you a part of my power that I¡¯ve been waiting to get rid of. Does that sound nice to you, good, see yah!] I didn¡¯t even get a chance to answer when my world turned black. Chapter 2 a god and an angel I woke up in the middle of the sea. Yes you heard me right THE SEA. Mr Shinigami didn¡¯t even bother checking where he dropped me off. I desperately swam to the water¡¯s surface, it was surprisingly easy. It only took me a few kicks and I basically flew out of the water. Wait I am flying! I was hovering just above the water¡¯s surface. It was raining so heavily I couldn¡¯t see in front of me. Before I started panicking I tried to see what changes I had undergone. I could remember my past but not in detail. I cannot remember my name. I remember the sleazy Shinigami gave me some new powers for this world. That¡¯s when I noticed that my body was as white as ivory. Oh I have aaaaaabbs now. All it took for me to get a six pack was death. Wait there¡¯s a WHOLE IN MY CHEST! But I¡¯m still alive so whatever. I have some cool looking tattoo lines running along my chest as well. My wrists, ankles and collar seemed to have some sort of red fur growing from them. I also saw that I now had long orange hair. When I tried to feel my face I realised that I was wearing a mask with two badass horns coming from the sides. This feeling was strange; the mask was heavy but felt as though it should be there. With this skull mask on I felt safe. I felt whole. This was funny because I had a huge hole in the middle of my chest. I wonder if that means I¡¯m ¡°HOLLOW¡±. [Cough][Cough] I felt a chill run down my spine. No wonder why all I was wearing was a torn black kimono. Still something felt out of place. I instinctively stretched my right hand in front of me with my palm open wide. What am I waiting for¡­ suddenly I felt it. The sea parted into two opposite directions as a pitch black sword erupted from the sea. This sword and my mask where connected, two half¡¯s to a whole, I don¡¯t know why but I knew both where a part of me. The sword flew into my hand and I felt a wave of power hit me. Now that I got a closer look I saw the sword was a pitch black katana. Now that I felt complete I decided to head towards a random direction. After 15 minutes of flying at a slow pace I could see a city in the distance but before I could make out any details I was shot out the sky. I managed to control myself before I hit the water. When I looked up I saw a beautiful purple haired cos play girl wearing a cheap angel costume with wings made of paper. Beside her stood 6 orange haired men with purple onion ring eyes (okay one of the men was bald).they all wore black robes with a red cloud insignia and stood in a strange formation. ¡°Shit please don¡¯t tell me orange hair is common in this world, o wanted to be a unique protagonist!¡± I cried cursing the Shinigami who sent me here.to make matters worse judging from the size of my opponents I have been reincarnated as a child. Well I should have noticed how short my limbs where and how large my sword was compared to my body¡­.okay I knew I was a child but let me live in denial PLEASE! ¡°Pain you were correct this child has the chakra level of a tailed beast¡± the hot Goth chick said to one of the men. The orange haired punk with badass piercings in the front of the formation replied ¡°yes he must be a secret weapon sent by our enemies¡± For some reason I could feel my opponents energy, the only way I could describe it was spiritual pressure. Konans spiritual pressure wasn¡¯t much to look at compared to me but I still sensed danger from her. The real problem was the six man team to her left. They all had immense spiritual pressure rivalling mine, but what scared me was the fact that their energy was being transmitted from somewhere, these where probably puppets or clones. I decided to try my luck by baiting a response from them. ¡°Huh all six of you are called Pain, that¡¯s just bad writing¡± I replied unimpressedIf you discover this tale on Amazon, be aware that it has been unlawfully taken from Royal Road. Please report it. ¡°Konan our enemy seems to be tracing my chakra! Do not let his foolish words distract you, let us show him true PAIN¡± Pain said ominously ¡°I¡¯m no one¡¯s enemy dammit! But if we must fight get ready for an ass kicking¡± I replied and then added ¡°BAN-KAI!¡± I don¡¯t know why I said the last part but if just felt good saying it. *AUTHORS NOTE*[bleach fans please don¡¯t kill me. I know that the main character is already using bankai, but who can resist starting a fight without such a beautiful word] The next ten minutes can only be described as painful. I flew painfully slow towards Konan who seemed to be a speeding bullet compared to me. Her not so cheap cos play wings shot paper explosives that blew me out of the air with ease. ¡°Instead of blowing me out of the air maybe you could blow me¡± I tried my best to trash talk her into flying in my direction. Sadly my words only served to piss off the six Pains¡¯ who started running in my direction. The thin (Ningend¨­) Pain with long hair grabbed by arm and I felt as though my soul was leaving my body. I could see a transparent outline of my soul as he pulled it out of me, [so that¡¯s what I look like, scary], but to my surprise it started moving on its own and punched pain off of me. Before my soul returned to my body it roared and fired of a red laser from between it horns towards pain. [Shit I¡¯ve got to learn to do that!] Sadly another pain jumped forward and absorbed my attack. I had to comment ¡°I call bullshit! How many powers do you guys have and why are they all so convenient!¡±[Didn¡¯t the Shinigami say I would be on the same level or stronger than the people on this planet, why does it feel like I¡¯m destined to be cannon fodder or fertilizer for a protagonist¡¯s growth?] While I was complaining the bald Pain fired a missile at me which exploded with enough force to send me spiralling back into the sea. When I resurfaced I shouted ¡°why do you guys use so many damn explosives, I hate explosives!¡± Konan then replied ¡°we should have brought Deidra along to take care of this mini pervert¡± ¡°Wait I¡¯m not a pervert, I said that stuff to throw you off your game, you know trash talk¡± I said defending myself ¡°Of course trash talk¡¯s trash¡± she replied and sent a few more air blasts my way. ¡°Konan that doesn¡¯t make any sense ¡°Pain uncharacteristically pointed out ¡°you should have said trash talk is for trash¡± Honestly I wish I had instructions on how to use my power I felt helpless. Even my enemies had time to joke around while they kicked my ass. The serious mood Konan and Pain had at the beginning of the fight had dissipated as they realised how weak I was. Pain (Tendo) closed the distance between us and slammed me in my face with an invisible force while shouting out ¡°Shinra Tensei!¡± the force was hard enough that my mask disintegrated. With the mask gone I felt almost all my power leave me. I began to cry ¡°first I died and found myself in the ocean and now I¡¯m going to get killed by overpowered cos players why!¡±[Waah][WAAAAH] Konan and Pain stopped when they saw me crying. Konan was shocked to see my real face ¡°Nagato, he is a child?¡± she asked confused. I wondered who was Nagato but I let it go because I noticed their hesitation and decided that if I¡¯m going to survive I have to act like a weak willed brat, if they ask why I¡¯m so overpowered I¡¯ll just say that I¡¯m a runaway lab experiment. Even if my lie seems weak I have to try, after all nothing ventured nothing gained! ¡°Child where are you from¡± Konan asked ¡°I don¡¯t know all I remember are labs¡± I replied as cutely as I could [but for some reason I really couldn¡¯t remember where I was from. I tried remembering my past life or even my own name but nothing came up] ¡°Do you know who your parents are¡± Pain asked ¡°I don¡¯t remember anything but except being in the water and some men in white lab coats¡± I sniffed after replying ¡°He must have been a runaway experiment¡± Pain said. What! They actually believe me. Ok stay calm let them make up their own story to make sense of this situation. ¡°I mean look at him he is white as paper, he must be one of Orochimaru''s experiments¡± Pain reasoned ¡°Then why is his chakra so high¡± Konan asked ¡°I heard Orochimaru has part of the 8 tails horn he must have found a way to combine its vitality to a future potential clone body¡± Pain said with confidence Konan agreed ¡°that would explain the horns¡± Oy oy oy. Are these guys normal? No they are way too gullible. From the moment they saw my real face they stopped attacking and believed whatever sob story I told them. Wait I didn¡¯t even have to tell them a story they made one up for me. ¡°Young one from today onwards you will be a junior member of Akatsuki!¡± all seven of them said in unison I just hope I haven¡¯t been invited into something troublesome. chapter 3 Self discovery and Akatsuki After inviting me to join their group called ¡®the Akatsuki¡¯ Pain and Konan took me back to their lair. My suspicions where confirmed when I Nagato, the six paths of pain where just his puppets. ¡°Don¡¯t you feel weird using dead bodies as puppets?¡± I genuinely asked Nagato. ¡±I mean, isn¡¯t that what someone with necrophilia would do?¡± Konan blushed and quickly said ¡°young one I think you mean necromancer. Necromancer is just a fancy word for a shinobi (ninja) who can reanimate corpses¡± [There she goes again changing what I said so that it what she wants to hear] Nagato followed Konan''s lead and said ¡°these are the bodies of famous shinobi (ninja) who have fought with my master, ONE OF THE LEGENDARY SANIN, THE GREAT SAGE JIRAIYA!¡± [Is that supposed to mean something to me?] ¡°Wow your master sounds great, that totally justifies using the corpses of people he once fought as puppets¡± I said trying to hide my sarcasm. ¡°Really! I have finally met someone who understands how to respect the dead. Konan wanted me to bury Yahiko''s body, but is it not better to use him as my strongest Pain and make him lead Takatsuki¡± [Ok you lost me there] ¡°Who is Yahiko?¡± I asked ¡°Tendo Pain, he was the true leader of Akatsuki years ago but died due to underhanded tricks and betrayal. He was everything to me and Konan¡± A tear slid down Konan¡¯s cheek as she listened to Nagato. [Ok so Yahiko is a touchy topic for them] ¡°Yes Nagato making Pain the leader was a good idea¡± [these guys are freaking crazy, roleplaying with dead bodies like they were action figures] Then raised her head and smiled ¡°we will call you Yahiko!¡± Nagato agreed immediately ¡°hahaha just like Yahiko you are an orphan with orange hair who never gives up!¡± [Didn¡¯t I give up when you kicked my ass?] I replied with a fake smile ¡°thank you so much big bro Nagato and super beautiful big sis Konan¡± Nagato smiled and Konan blushed. They then led me to my room where I rested for the night; it was a simple setup plain bed mirror and bathroom. Their lair didn¡¯t seem to be designed for luxury. I finally got a look at myself in the mirror. Without my mask I look just like the idiot Shinigami (Kurisaki Ichigo) which sent me to this planet full of overpowered psychopaths. The only difference between me and Ichigo was that I looked younger, my eyes were yellow with black sclera, my skin is deathly pale and I still have a whole in my chest. That night when I fell asleep I had a weird dream. I was in the floating in the middle of a city made up of endless skyscrapers. And standing in front of me was my soul, it completely black. It had a white mask, and its light colour (white) hair reached down to the middle of its back. It had two long, forward-pointing horns protruding from the sides of its head, and its Hollow hole, located in its upper chest, was filled in. It has two blades in place of its forearms. ¡°Why does my soul look like a monster?¡± I asked ¡°That is because I am an experiment hollow created from the souls of many Shinigami. My name is White. Ichigo did not wish for me to taint his bloodline any further so he sacrificed the part of his soul where I reside and combined it with yours¡± white answered ¡°Why me?¡± I asked confused ¡°Your soul is the only soul compatible with mine and Ichigo¡± white answered patiently as if talking to a child ¡°So it wasn¡¯t a mistake that I died early¡± I asked ¡°Yes. Ichigo planned to put a baby in whOrihimes¡¯ belly¡± white answered sounding displeased. ¡°Whorihime?¡± ¡°A nickname I came up with for Orihime ¡° ¡°Isn¡¯t that a bit mean¡± I said defending the woman¡¯s honour. ¡°You should hear her say ¡®kurosaki-kuuuuuuuun!¡¯¡± white answered with a tired voice filled with annoyance. [Ok so Ichigo screwed me in more ways than one, all I can do now is live life until the fullest] ¡°Enough bitching, what powers do we have¡± White seemed surprised at how quickly I came to terms with my situation ¡°Eh seriously, you don¡¯t even care, he took away your life you know; now you can¡¯t even call yourself a human or a hollow. You are something new, alone in this world with only me a bitter existence created by Aizen Souske to turn Shinigami into what you are now.¡± White said sounding confused and frantic at the same time.This tale has been unlawfully obtained from Royal Road. If you discover it on Amazon, kindly report it. ¡°Man enough with details back to the story! Our fans are getting bored you¡± I replied [Cough][Ehem] ¡°You didn¡¯t get any of Ichigo''s Shinigami powers and instead gained all of my hollow abilities which are: Immense Speed, Enhanced Strength, Enhanced Endurance, Enhanced Durability, Immense Spiritual Power (chakra), Expert Hand-to-Hand Combatant, Cero, Self-Destruct Mechanism, Hollowfication Poison and Soul Infiltration. The first five powers are the reason Konan and Pains attacks didn¡¯t turn you into pool of blood. You will pick up taijutsu and sword techniques better thanks to ability 6, you saw me use Cero it¡¯s pretty badass, self-destruct only affects your hollow hole fill it with chakra and use it as a last ditch effort as it uses up all your stamina and you will not be able to move, Hollowfication poison has been locked from use until we meet certain requirements, the same for soul infiltration. We can also copy the abilities of any sword you have used.¡± ¡°Wow do you really have all those powers¡± I asked shocked ¡°Yup check my wiki, although some abilities where modified to suit this world¡± ¡°Ok thanks I¡¯ll start training when I wake up¡± ¡°Yahiko wake up!¡± Konan yelled as I was startled awake. ¡±oh you are awake now I was so scared because you weren¡¯t responding to my voice¡± ¡°Sorry I¡¯m a deep sleeper¡± I lied. [Well its better than saying I was inside my soul world talking to a part of my soul] ¡°Come its time you meet the rest of our members¡± Konan seemed so excited to show me her teammates. We walked into Nagato''s favourite room; it had a huge gedo statue which he said they will use to save the world. I just thought he was a crazy cult leader, but you know the saying when life gives you lemons¡­. Konan gave me an Akatsuki robe to wear and told me to stand with tendo pain before the team arrived. One by one strange men began walking into the room, all of them could not be described as normal, one had red eyes, one looked and smelled like a fish, one had mouths on his hands, another had a scorpion tail, there was one which had a knife going through his heart but walked around fine instead complaining about having a crazy teammate, another seemed to be made of black vines and carried around a suitcase full of money, there was a black and white plant man who stood next to a funny carefree junior member who wore an orange mask. Pain started the meeting ¡°we have new junior member joining us today, like Toby he will follow each of you around while gaining experience, we also have news that Orochimaru has attacked konoha, I will send a team to asses if the Kyubi is still alive if so capture it and bring it here. Who volunteers?¡±[Orochimaru? This is the second time I¡¯ve heard his name who is he] ¡°Kisame and I will go¡± the red eyes called itachi said. No one objected [hmm he must be a badass to keep a room full of monsters quiet] ¡°I¡¯ll go with them¡± I shouted. Mostly because I wanted to get away from Pains dead body smell, but also because I wanted to wield fish-man''s sword, it seemed to have a special power and I wanted to copy it. Konan frowned but didn¡¯t act out because she was in front of her peers. [Aww she wanted me to stay The rest of the meeting was boring; just finance reports from Kakuzu and minor missions being handed over to other teams. Pain and Konan smiled as I left the lair with Itachi and Kisame. Konan handed me her ninja headband and walked away. I put it on and smiled. [There is no way I¡¯m dying before I get a chance to smash! that is my way of the ninja¡­ok later I will think of a better ninja way but for now!] Kisame and Itachi immediately began running in the direction of konoha at a blistering pace, faster than I could fly for now as least, so instead of trying to fly I ran after them. I never thought I would be able to run this fast! I knew I had immense speed but this was crazy. I was sure that I could overtake Itachi and Kisame but didn¡¯t because they knew the path to konoha and I didn¡¯t. Itachi and Kisame where oddly quiet during our trip and ran without talking. We ran until nightfall before we rested. ¡°hehehe this little fish managed to swim with the sharks, I¡¯m impressed you can still walk after all of today¡¯s running, then again nobody normal joins Akatsuki, right Itachi?¡± Kisame commented in a creepy I want to kill or eat you voice. ¡°True, it is surprising how fast you are and your endurance is good too how old are you?¡± Itachi asked with suspicion in his eyes ¡°Konan and Pain said my age should be around 13 to 14 years old¡± I told them what Nagato had guessed. ¡°Heh that¡¯s a year older than your brother Itachi-san, who do you think would win in a fight between them. Maybe we might get a chance to see them in action¡± Kisame said in his annoying yet intimidating voice. [I haven¡¯t had any time to train my techniques, my two best skills are locked and I¡¯m scared Kisame would kill me if I asked to use his sword for a bit. Why do they want me to fight so bad when just here to watch?] Itachi''s eyes turned into a strange pattern and I felt his spiritual pressure spike¡±Kisame, Sasuke is my prey do not interfere¡± Before I could react kisame''s sword was pointed at Itachi and kisame¡¯s spiritual pressure was at the same level as mine when I undergo full Hollowfication. [This world has nothing but overpowered assholes. I haven¡¯t met one person whose spiritual pressure didn¡¯t show they were secretly a hidden monster; even that zetsu guy with an extremely low spiritual pressure had a hidden presence within his spiritual pressure which blocked my scanning. Nothing but overpowered last boss ninja mother fuckers!] ¡°Itachi are you sure you want to play with me hehehehe¡± Kisame sounded serious this time [I have to stop this fight, it¡¯s now or never] ¡°Hey guys let¡¯s just play a little game of rock paper scissors to decide who fights who tomorrow¡± ¡°hehehehe this new recruit knows what he¡¯s talking about, let¡¯s play¡± Kisame said excitedly Itachi gave me a comprehensive look and nodded his head I agreement. ¡°Ok who gets to fight the jounin in the village, rock, paper, scissors¡± [Dammit I won] ¡°hehehehe rookie you have nice luck, who will lead the capture of the kyubi, rock, paper, scissors¡± [dammit I won again what is happening, I¡¯m getting an ominous feeling] ¡°Is Sasuke shows up who will fight him, rock, paper, scissors¡± [it¡¯s decided I have universal bad luck as my strongest ability] Itachi and Kisame were shocked; they could not believe they lost even with all their ninja reflexes and sharingan at their disposal. ¡°That boy controls fate itself ¡°Itachi said disbelieving ¡°It looks like the rookie is in charge tomorrow. Hehehehe this works as well¡± Chapter 4 invasion of Konoha part 1 Itachi [The only reason I volunteered for this mission was to show the Elders of Konoha that I was still alive so that they wouldn¡¯t dare to think of hurting Sasuke now that the third Hokage is dead. I was supposed to be in charge so that our mission does as little damage to the already wounded Konoha as possible. Now our mission¡¯s fate lies in the hands of a strange new rookie recruit. Usually Kisame listens to all my orders obediently but something about this new recruit ¡®Yahiko¡¯ has got him on edge. Maybe it¡¯s because the new recruit also uses a sword, or is it because this rookie seems to constantly scan our bodies using his strange sensory abilities. All I know is if Yahiko tries to kill Sasuke I will kill him] Kisame [Now that Yahiko is in charge of the mission I can finally get to see his sword style. He has been challenging me the whole way to Konoha by scanning Samehada with his sensory techniques. He must be looking to take my sword for himself. If he thinks that it will be easy taking Samehada from me he is in for a surprise. Hehehehe looks like my days of comrade killing aren¡¯t over yet] Yahiko (the main characters new name for those who forgot) [As we reached Konoha I couldn¡¯t help but feel fear. The bloodlust dripping from my two teammates made it hard to breath. I was way too scared to ask what had them so riled up just in case the answer way me. How could a junior member lead an infiltration and capture mission in a major ninja village!] We departed our campsite at dawn and arrived at the entrance to the village early in the morning. ¡°Is this a trick why is there only one guard at the gate?¡± I asked doubting our luck. ¡°This is probably because other J¨­nin and Anbu are patrolling the borders of the village and fighting off possible invaders while Konoha is still weak¡± [Still doesn¡¯t answer why there is only one guard at the gate. It¡¯s ok to say that you don¡¯t know! ] I replied in a childish voice ¡°Itachi-nee you¡¯re the best. You always know the answer!¡± Itachi responded by giving me a disgusted look. [Ok don¡¯t try to be innocent around Itachi] The guard stopped us as before we passed through the gate. After exchanging some words Itachi''s eyes turned red and the man fell asleep. It felt as though he disrupted the man¡¯s spiritual pressure flow, or to put it in ninja term¡¯s Itachi¡¯s chakra disrupted the guard¡¯s chakra flow. ¡°What technique is that?¡± I asked curiously ¡°Genjutsu (illusion technique)¡± Itachi gave a short reply [I know that part already! shortly after Konan and Pain found me they explained all the basics of the ninja world to me] ¡°I meant to say what¡¯s up with your eyes. If we are to continue I need to know each other¡¯s abilities¡± ¡°heheheheh well played young one, he¡¯s really put us in a corner with that one. Right Itachi-san?¡± Kisame said. [Well played? Put them in a corner??What do these guys think I am planning???] ¡°My eyes are Sharingan. They allow me to copy most techniques, predict your moves and break and cast illusionary techniques .when they transform into Mangeky¨­ Sharingan I can shoot flames that will never burn and trap you in an illusionary technique that can kill the weak willed.¡± Itachi said this as if it was common knowledge. [Eh isn¡¯t that a broken technique, well it¡¯s not as bad as Pain but still¡­ so unfair] It was Kisame''s turn next ¡°this is my sword Samehada upon contact with an enemy it crushes and absorbs their chakra feeding into me to improve my stamina and regeneration.¡± [Why does it feel like both of them are not telling me their full capabilities, although both powers seem amazing something is telling me they can do a lot more?] ¡°I have an abnormally enhanced body, when I use my mask my chakra is on the level of a tailed beast, I can pick up any Taijutsu (hand-to-hand combat techniques) and sword techniques with ease although I currently have none and I have a hole in my chest that can fill with chakra for a self-destruction technique¡± [I told them about the self-destruction technique to keep them wary of me and left out Cero just in case I needed a trump card against them] ¡°Eh? A swordsman claiming to have not leant a sword technique I feel cheated.¡± Kisame sounded upset. ¡°I really don¡¯t know any techniques, I left before Konan could teach me. Maybe you could train me Kisame-senpai¡± [I took a chance with asking Kisame for training because I doubted he would try killing me inside Konoha. right?] ¡°Hmm interesting, maybe I can train you on our way back. Hehehehhe¡± Kisame said in a playful voice. [For some reason I think training to him means a battle]If you spot this narrative on Amazon, know that it has been stolen. Report the violation. ¡°Ok let¡¯s head towards a restaurant first I¡¯m hungry¡± I said smiling ¡°Itachi spoke for the first time in a while; you forgot to mention your sensory technique. If we are going to be passing through Konoha undetected stop scanning everyone around you it¡¯s annoying and suspicious¡± ¡°Oh you can feel when I sense you. I¡¯m sorry I didn¡¯t know that. I¡¯ll stop it from now on¡± ¡°Good¡± he replied, and we made our way to a dumpling shop he recommended. While on our way I read from a bingo book I stole from the sleeping guard. [wow, a lot of my teammates are in this book. let me skim through Itachi and Kisame¡¯s records and read the rest later] what I read made me grateful Konan and Pain found me.[ these guys wouldn¡¯t hesitate to kill a kid like me] Itachi and Kisame felt more intimidating now that I knew a part of their past. Kisame even smiled when he saw me reading his crimes. [Scary] [Shit, I¡¯ve been scanning everyone I met from the time I arrived in this world. now I must look like a nosy idiot or worse. It¡¯s no wonder Itachi and Kisame where irritated with me] After we started eating I noticed Itachi seemed tense. [I wonder if our enemies already know of our presence] I looked outside the store and noticed a ninja reading a novel named make out paradise. He was so close to our stall that I knew he was monitoring us. [Damn it. I should have known this unfair world would not let my first mission go smoothly] The silver haired masked ninja was soon joined by smoking male ninja and a female ninja dressed in bandages [hmm female ninja don¡¯t seem very fashionable, from what I¡¯ve seen so far Konan is still] the best. The three ninja seemed to be indirectly talking about us and Itachi flinched the moment the silver haired ninja said Sasuke was about to arrive here. [Great, we have to face 3 ninja and we have no time for whatever is going on between Itachi and his little brother] I signalled for us to leave and engage the shinobi somewhere else. Itachi then led us to a river and two of the ninja from earlier appeared in front of us. ¡°You are not from around here are you¡± the smoking ninja said. [Oh my goodness I fell like it this talking bit might] I removed my hat and my teammates did the same, the two ninja looked shocked. ¡°My name is Yahiko, this is Kisame and Itachi. I¡¯m sure there is no need for introductions. I read the bingo I took from the guard and both of them are in it¡± Kisame and Itachi looked annoyed I ruined their baddass introductions. Itachi the said ¡°the man is Asuma and the woman Kurenai¡± ¡°Ok, all three of us gang up on one them, no one on one bullshit. If we kill one the other will surely follow. Plus it¡¯s so obvious they are in a relationship so I doubt they would abandon each other to go for help.¡± Asuma and Kurenai looked shocked. [I wonder are they shocked because a child is leading two S rank criminals or because I knew they are dating] Asuma''s face darkened ¡°even children are not spared from evil¡± ¡°What¡± before I could think of a clever reply Asuma attacked me with two blades. Something was off about the blades but it doesn¡¯t matter Itachi and Kisame have my back. I didn¡¯t even bother blocking. [Sliiiing] [Clang]. That was the noise of the blade cutting through my neck and being stopped by the extremely dense bone of my vertebra. ¡°Fuck!¡± I slashed my sword randomly at the dumbfounded Asuma and watched his half his arm fly off in a random direction. Before I could reach up to check if my neck was fine it already started healing ¡°What! That¡¯s rapid regeneration without weaving symbols! Asuma said with fear in his voice while clutching the stump that was his left arm. Kurenai had tears in her eyes, probably feeling pain for the loss of her lovers arm, but she still managed to finish whatever technique she was preparing and faded into nothingness. Next thing I knew a tree had wrapped itself around me and Kurenai had a kunai against my throat. [What the hell are Itachi and Kisame doing right now and why can¡¯t I move. Just when I could feel proud of hurting one opponent another overpowered technique kills me] {It¡¯s not an overpowered technique, it¡¯s just an illusion}White spoke into my mind while appearing in front of me. {Since I reside in your soul I am not affected and can dispel the illusion} he placed his blade hand, remember he has knives for hands, on my forehead and I was returned to reality. Kurenai was standing a few feet in front of me and seemed shocked that I wasn¡¯t still in the illusion. I took advantage of the fact she let her guard down. I moved with the most proficiency I have ever displayed , grabbed the handle of my sword and stepped forward, I don¡¯t know why but I knew if I concentrated on the flow of energy around me I could move through space and time. This technique was common knowledge from the world White my soul¡¯s companion had come from. It was hollow version of the Shinigami technique ¡®Flash Step¡¯ called Sonido! There was muffled boom noise left in the direction of where I first stood as I materialised in front of Kurenai with my sword already slashing down on her. ¡°Teleportation?¡± was all she managed to say as her body split into 2 perfect halves right down the middle. [Shit, after this there¡¯s no way I¡¯m going to have a chance to switch sides. Whatever I won¡¯t be a half assed piece of shit and do things one way. Nagato and Konan are my new family now, I might as well make their goal mine and create world piece while amassing a harem of female ninja] ¡°BASTARD! You will die for this!¡± Asuma shouted as he ran in my direction. ¡°hehehehe me and Itachi are convinced you are a real Akatsuki member, even daring to hide the fact that you are immune to J¨­nin level Genjutsu and own a space time teleportation technique from your own teammates reeks of Akatsuki¡± Kisame said proudly before shouting ¡°water style, shark bomb justu¡± A giant stream of water in the shape of a shark fired at Asuma but it was cancelled out by a similar stream of water. We all looked into the direction of the surprise attack. It was the silver haired ninja with a mask, but his eye had a Sharingan! [I thought Itachi killed his whole clan except for his brother? Maybe you can steal Sharingan¡­no, no, no! Let such tempting leave your mind. He¡¯s too strong to kill anyway] I shook thoughts of a fight with Itachi out of my head immediately. ¡°Asuma I¡¯m sorry I only sent the two of you to fight help is on the way¡± silver hair said with pain in his voice. ¡°I won¡¯t forgive you Kakashi, nor will I forgive that pale skinned yellow eyed bastard!¡± Asuma roared with violence. ¡°Let¡¯s make quick work of these two and continue our mission¡± I said trying to sound unfazed by the cries of the man whose life I just ruined. Itachi put his hand on my shoulder and said ¡°fine but no more killing, our organization does not want to stand out too much¡± [What? That doesn¡¯t make sense; we want our names known so we get hired more. Whatever I don¡¯t exactly feel like killing weaker people anyway. For some reason the shinobi I had met until now where disgustingly strong but now that I had met some of the elite from Konoha a leading village I realised I was way too overpowered] I smiled and said ¡°Kakashi that¡¯s a nice Sharingan you have there. Can I have it?¡± I couldn¡¯t see Kakashi''s face but I knew he was shitting his pants. chapter 5 invasion of konoha part 2 ¡°Yahiko!¡± Itachi said in an angry voice ¡°I said no more- ¡° ¡°Killing. Yeah yeah I heard you. I won¡¯t kill him; I¡¯ll just take his Sharingan¡± I threw my katana at Kakashi¡¯s head with such speed that he couldn¡¯t dodge. I watched the sword plant itself right between his eyes. [It¡¯s not like Itachi will kill me for taking out one more person] Before I could make up an excuse for Itachi Kakashi¡¯s body turned into water and flowed back into the river. My sword continued on its path and plunged straight into the river causing mini waves throughout the surface of the river. Asuma almost lost his balance but managed to stabilize himself. I was genuinely surprised and looked in the direction of my senior members for an explanation Kisame then said ¡°A water clone? Heh. A mere copy ninja can use this many techniques from our village. Impressive¡± ¡°Clones huh, maybe it¡¯s a bit too soon to underestimate the residents of this village. They may not pack a punch but they do have some impressive tricks¡± I said sounding impressed. ¡°You are joking right? Almost every J¨­nin can perform a clone technique of some sort¡± Itachi said this while looking at me with confusion. ¡°Oh I forgot to tell you guys, I don¡¯t know how to use chakra to perform all those ninja tricks, I can reinforce my body but that¡¯s pretty much it for now¡± Everyone present gave me an incredulous look teammates and enemies alike Itachi couldn¡¯t stop himself from saying ¡°you haven¡¯t started training any ninja techniques! You mean to say everything you¡¯ve been doing up until now have been based on instincts?¡± .this was my first time seeing a shocked expression on Itachi¡¯s face. ¡°I¡¯m supposed to learn techniques from each member of Akatsuki; our leader said that it will be better if I learn them after witnessing their use in a combat environment. I think he didn¡¯t bet on you two making me do all the work.¡± I said while faking a pout. [wait the Konoha ninja have been a bit too quiet].just as I was thinking this I heard what sounded like a thousand birds chirping and felt a tingling sensation and static go through my chest. ¡°Hehehe, you should know clones are usually a setup for a counter attack. But experience is the best teacher.¡± Kisame said with indifference in his voice. [You would think that watching your teammate get stabbed though the chest would at least cause you to gasp, but no reaction from Kisame and Itachi. Heartless bastards] I looked down at the lightning coated hand that just passed through my chest and smiled. Asuma didn¡¯t seem happy with my expression and said ¡°I wanted to see you cry and beg for mercy when you died. Now that I see you smiling at deaths door I know that all this time you where hollow on the inside¡± [I have to admit that Asuma is tough. If I was him I would have gone insane or died from blood loss] ¡°Hahaha. ¡®hollow¡¯. I couldn¡¯t have said it better myself¡± I grabbed Kakashi¡¯s hand. This seemed to catch Kakashi and Asuma by surprise. [Of course you¡¯ll all be shocked; none of you know that I already have a hole in my chest. But why didn¡¯t I self-destruct, it¡¯s like the chakra I stored in my hollow hole was disabled by Kakashi¡¯s technique. It must be weak to lightning techniques.] I grabbed Kakashi¡¯s hand but before I finish crushing it electricity flowed through my body and I stumbled, he took this opportunity to retreat backwards. [I¡¯m so stupid, his hand was literally glowing why grab it!] ¡°Fuck, time to end this¡± I reached into the air in front of my face preparing to put on my mask and transform. I felt a hand on my shoulder it was Itachi, his eyes had a new pattern which caused my instincts to scream danger. I stopped what I was doing and noticed Kisame had knocked out Asuma. Itachi looked towards Kakashi and said ¡°I¡¯ll handle this. Kakashi I will show you why the clan of Uchiha was feared and reputed to be unmatched. The Sharingan¡­ the bloodline limit¡¯s true power. ¡± Kakashi said ¡°your technique will not work on me I have a Sharingan as well¡± Itachi replied ¡°it¡¯s true that if you have Sharingan, you can resist this Mangeky¨­ Sharingan a little. however¡­ you cannot counter my Tsukuyomi¡± As Itachi finished speaking I saw Kakashi drop to the ground and start panting. [What the fuck? The technique is no doubt effective but when looking at it from the outside it¡¯s so plain. Well doesn¡¯t matter I¡¯ll get a chance to see it for myself when I get a Sharingan] Kisame moved to Itachi¡¯s side and said towards Kakashi ¡°oh? You didn¡¯t experience a mental collapse after going through that?¡± he then turned towards Itachi gave him a contemplative look and said ¡°but Itachi-san¡­ its dangerous to use those eyes too much¡± [what? Sharingan have a weakness. Now that I look at Itachi his eyes seem to be twitching. Hmm I¡¯ll have to ask him about it later] Kakashi said ¡°is Sasuke what you are looking for?¡± [This guys an idiot; we just won the fight why would we tell you what our plans are]The narrative has been stolen; if detected on Amazon, report the infringement. ¡°No. we are looking for the fourth Hokage''s legacy¡± to my surprise Itachi actually replied Kakashi. ¡°Why would you tell him that? Whatever-¡°I focused all my muscled and used sonido once again and appeared in front of Kakashi. Kisame and Itachi didn¡¯t have any time to react. I slid three of my fingers into the edges of Kakashi¡¯s eye; he screamed and held on to my forearm. ¡°tsk tsk tsk ,it looks like you¡¯re too tired to fight back, just relax it¡¯ll be done before you know it.¡± The whole process lasted two and a half minutes. Kakashi was conscious and screaming the whole time. I needed to pull the eye out without damaging it so I had to dig my fingers deeper into the edges of the eye socket. Once I was deep enough I began to pull, not to fast or I risk damaging the nerve endings, [damn this guy won¡¯t shut up. It can¡¯t be that painful right?] , Kakashi started begging for help but I ignored him and continued pulling and then, [pop], the eye was out. Kakashi was left bleeding on the floor ¡°see that wasn¡¯t so hard¡± I smiled looking at my new Sharingan. ¡°You didn¡¯t even try to use any chakra to remove his eye, your whole technique was barbaric and inefficient¡± Itachi said while seeming to be holding something back. [Why is he angry? I didn¡¯t kill the guy] I stuck my fingers in my own eye and pulled hard. [Damn that hurts no wonder why Kakashi cried like a little bitch]I then stuck the Sharingan into my eye socket and waited. ¡°¡­¡± Kisame and Itachi looked at me as though they were fascinated ¡°you still didn¡¯t use chakra to transplant the eye, without connecting it correctly it¡¯s useless. You need a medical ninja¡± ¡°What? None of you can do it why didn¡¯t you tell me!¡± ¡°Heheheh. You didn¡¯t ask¡± Kisame seemed to genuinely laugh this time ¡°Ok do we have any way to preserve the eye?¡± Kisame and Itachi looked at each other before simultaneously saying ¡°no¡± [Dammit they are obviously lying to me. They must not want me to have a Sharingan. What should I do? Maybe give it back to Kakashi and hope he finds someone to preserve it] ¡°Hey Kakashi! You can have your eye back. Keep it safe until I come back for it¡­ also try to unlock that Mangeky¨­ ability¡± I threw the eye and Kakashi held onto it with gentleness and determination. [Shit he¡¯s definitely going to be gunning for me] as I left the whimpering Kakashi I heard a loud shout- ¡°Konoha strong whirlwind!¡± I found myself twirling in the air until I hit the treeline. ¡°What the fuck was that¡± I said while trying to find my bearings. ¡°Sixth gate of joy, Morning Peacock!¡± ¡°Morning what?¡± all I saw was a green shadow heading towards me at a speed I couldn¡¯t fathom and then pain. [shit shit shit SHIT! WHAT IS HAPPENING] I was receiving damage faster than I could take it. I felt helpless again. Then Kisame appeared in front of me and blocked what I suspect was a killing blow. [From now on I¡¯m starting all my fights with my mask on. Ever since that green man arrived I haven¡¯t had the chance to activate my Hollowfication. This is a lesson I plan to learn from] Kisame smiled and said ¡°that¡¯s enough why don¡¯t you go help your comrades instead of wasting your time trying to kill this brat. Who are you anyway?¡± I am Konoha''s noble green (*the anime translation says blue for some reason) beast¡­Might Guy! How dare you do this to my comrades I will not forgive any of you!¡± Itachi then spoke ¡°we are going to retreat; I suggest you save your friends. Kisame, Yahiko let¡¯s go!¡± As we ran away I looked back at guy. [I hate him for kicking my ass but damn I want to kick ass like him, wait am I forgetting something¡­ oh yeah my sword] I stretched my arm out to my side and felt a hum of power leave my palm. In seconds my katana had found its way back to me. ¡°Hmmm. is that your swords ability?¡± Kisame asked me. ¡°Kind off¡­it¡¯s more like I¡¯m linked with my sword¡± I told him just enough that he would stop asking questions. ¡°Ok so where do we go now?¡± I asked Itachi and Kisame ¡°Ramen Ichiraku. It¡¯s a famous Konohagakure restaurant. The owners name is Teuchi. He is information broker.¡± Itachi didn¡¯t bother looking in my direction while explaining. [Maybe I went a little too far with Kakashi, I need to make amends with my teammates even if it means I have to be a good little solider and stay in line] As we entered the ramen shop we were greeted by a kind old man. When he saw our faces he quickly led us into the backroom. Itachi spoke first ¡°we are looking for the nine tails. Naruto¡± Teuchi replied ¡°oh him. He is a daily customer it will cost you double.¡± ¡°Fine just be quick. We need location and any other important variables¡± Itachi said this as he handed the man a suitcase of money which he kept sealed inside a scroll. While counting the money Teuchi said ¡°the boy is short, has blue eyes and yellow hair. Always wears an orange jumpsuit. He is currently travelling with one of the legendary sanin, Jiraiya the great sage. Jiraiya is known for breaking the three ninja taboos, especially fond of women and alcohol. They are currently heading to a lodging town near the village. I recommended the flying swan hotel to them. Oh, I almost forgot, recently Naruto has seemed to have mastered a part of his nine tails chakra. It was revealed at the chunin exams. Have a nice day!¡± As we left the Ramen shop I was disgusted at his lack of loyalty for his village. although when I think about it at the end of the day aren¡¯t shinobi just government mercenaries, if I put out a contract on an innocent and pay enough I¡¯m sure a Daimyo wouldn¡¯t hesitate to order their ninja village to take the offer. It¡¯s not surprising people are just fending for themselves in a world full of monsters. As I was thinking Kisame said ¡°perhaps you can fight him evenly¡­ but I cannot. He is too strong.¡± Itachi agreed with him ¡°yes. If we both fought him, we would both be killed¡­or in a good case, we might kill him, but we¡¯d die along with him. Even if we had more men that result would not change¡± [These mother fuckers are having a team discussion without me. Was I that disappointing in the previous fight. I thought I held my own until that might guy showed up. Shit] ¡°Hey guys why don¡¯t we use his weakness of women and alcohol against him?¡± I asked. ¡°¡­¡±Itachi then said ¡°I was going to say that. The plan will be I will put a woman in a Genjutsu that will make her have sex with Jiraiya in a separate hotel. While he is distracted we get Naruto.¡± I decided to make a joke at Itachi¡¯s expense since her stole my plan. ¡°I bet you use illusion techniques on all your girlfriends. Hahaha-sorry¡± I stopped laughing when I saw him tense up. [Maybe he did use an illusion technique on his girlfriend. With great power comes even greater perverts. Jiraiya and Itachi being my case and point] Kisame and I awkwardly stood by while Itachi did his Sharingan roofie technique and pointed the woman towards Jiraiya¡± [Time for phase two capture Naruto] Kisame knocked on the hotel door and when the yellow haired blue eyes answered the door I was sure of two things. One: He was Naruto, his description matched to the dot and two: we must have looked scary as hell because he pissed himself at the sight of a fish man, a red eyed douchebag and a white horned monster. [Yes I learnt from my past mistakes, mask on before you kick ass] chapter 6 konoha invasion conclusion [Ok, we have Naruto. Jiraiya is nowhere to be seen. Everything is actually going according to the plan. I just want to get this mission over with so that I can go back ¡®home¡¯ and get some new teammates. I¡¯m sure the whole Akatsuki isn¡¯t made up of assholes.] I take the lead and give orders before Itachi and Kisame take over control of this mission. ¡°This is Naruto; I can feel a spiritual press¡­ I mean chakra coming from within his body. It¡¯s almost as sinister as the chakra within my mask.¡± I look into Naruto''s eyes ¡°tell me how you keep sane with such an evil chakra surrounding your very soul? I¡¯m scared that I personally try to ignore it what do you do?¡± Itachi seemed annoyed with my questioning ¡°Yahiko! We do not have time for your crazy nonsense, nine tails come with us¡± Naruto listened and walked to our sides. ¡°I thought you and Kisame agreed that I was going to be the next leader, why are you the one giving orders!¡± I shouted towards Itachi. [I feel like I was tricked, they told me I was in charge but all that meant was leave me to do all the fighting while they watched on a critiqued] ¡°Yahiko. Kisame and I let you think you were in charge. We just wanted to assess your abilities and personality. We are done analysing and now it¡¯s time for the mission¡± Itachi said while speaking down on me. [A test? I just want to hurt this Itachi so bad but how¡­] Kisame interrupted my thoughts when he asked Itachi ¡°Itachi-san it would be annoying if he moved around perhaps we cut of a leg or two¡± [I got scolded for removing an enemy¡¯s eyes but Kisame gets nothing for suggesting he cut of the targets legs with a blunt blade, bullshit] Suddenly I sensed a presence at the end of the hallway, I turned to see who it was and to my surprise it way a mini version of Itachi. I smiled. [The heavens have answered my prayers, what better way to hurt Itachi than stealing his prey?] Itachi then said ¡°it has been a while Sasuke¡± Sasuke responds ¡°Uchiha Itachi. Like you said. I hated you, detested you and just to kill you I¡¯ve survived!¡± Sasuke then activates his chidori and shouts ¡°I¡¯m going to kill you¡± he started charging towards Itachi while dragging his lightning coated hand against the wall. Right as Sasuke reached Itachi I used sonido to teleport in front of him and receive the chidori head on. Sasuke struck his chidori into my side with complete shock on his face as he did not expect me to appear in front of him so suddenly. His attack barely did any damage. It only left a bruise which healed almost immediately. [This is why I¡¯m wearing the mask. My healing factor and body constitution is exponentially improved in this state. I dare might guy to fight me in this form] ¡°That tickles. So you must be Sasuke, Itachi seems so determined to kill you.¡± I grabbed Sasuke by the throat and said ¡°what would Itachi do if I killed you first¡± ¡°Yahiko¡­ if you kill my opponent I will leave you in a state worse than death, you will feel despair for a thousand years and only then when broken will I release you. Then when you have hope of living anew, build a family and believe there will be a better future I will return and turn your world to ash.¡± [Ok. I¡¯m scared. Itachi¡¯s words seemed to rein in all the crazy thoughts that I¡¯ve been having, I¡¯ve been acting way too impulsively. If I kill Sasuke, Itachi kills me. If I back down now I lose face. I need to find a compromise] For the second time today the heavens answered my prayers. We all felt the nine tails chakra fill the entire room, it gave me an excuse to let go of Sasuke and turn towards Naruto. I saw Itachi deactivate his Mangeky¨­ Sharingan and then turn in the same direction. [So he really was ready to kill me. Thank you so much Naruto!] Kisame was the first to react and swung Samehada. Naruto¡¯s chakra cloak dissipated. Kisame then swung his sword in an attempt to crush Naruto¡¯s hands but was stopped by a giant orange frog wearing armour. [A frog summoning? Shit that can only mean Jiraiya is about to make an entrance. Nagato told me Jiraiya made a summoning contract with some frog sages from mount whatever. I just hope my secret plan B works.] ¡°You three don¡¯t know me very well do you. Jiraiya the man is better at winning a girl than being seduced by one¡± the man speaking had long white hair a badass ninja headband and had the woman we sent to seduce him unconscious over his shoulder. He spoke while making a ridiculous pose ¡°Jiraiya the man does not allow won=men to simply seduce him with their beauty. When you become great like me, women will go crazy over your beauty.¡± [This guy seems fun. He sounds nothing like the man who abandoned Nagato known and Yahiko leading them to a world of ¡®pain¡¯] Naruto¡¯s mood immediately improved and he started scolding the legendary ninja with words such as perverted sage. Kisame interrupted their happy reunion ¡°it seems like you have dispelled the illusionary technique from that woman.¡± Jiraiya looked at Itachi and said ¡°you¡¯re a disgrace to all men, using your eye to hypnotize a woman to separate me from Naruto¡± ¡°I was the first one to say Itachi was a creeper, just wanted everyone to know¡± I agreed with Jiraiya just to piss Itachi off. Itachi ignored me and said ¡°it is an urgent order by our organisation Akatsuki, to take Naruto-kun with us¡± ¡°Is it really necessary to confirm his theories on our mission?¡± I said while facing Jiraiya who had taken a battle ready stance. Jiraiya then said ¡°I¡¯ll get rid of you three right here¡± ¡°Don¡¯t interfere¡± Sasuke stood while staggering and said ¡°the one who is going to kill him is me!¡± ¡°Oh you are one annoying idiot¡± I turned around and bitch slapped Sasuke so hard that he fainted. Itachi looked at me but said nothing probably because I only used enough force to knock him out. ¡°Heheheh. Yahiko is right I think its better we concentrate on the legendary ninja in front of us¡± Kisame approved of my actions Jiraiya frowned at Kisame¡¯s words ¡°I know of Itachi and Kisame but I have never heard of a rogue from Amegakure (the village hidden in the rain) with your features. Also your name Yahiko seems¡­¡±he stopped in the middle of his sentence and seemed to look for something while he scanned my hair. ¡°Do you know of a ninja called Yahiko, he has orange hair just like you do and should be near his late thirties¡±If you come across this story on Amazon, be aware that it has been stolen from Royal Road. Please report it. I froze. [Damn Nagato for giving me such a name! Itachi and Kisame made no out ward show of recognition, so I¡¯m the only one who¡¯s dropped the ball and given away a big secret. Wait he only knows that I know Yahiko he doesn¡¯t know the connection¡­ it¡¯s time for my secret plan B which is lie my way out of any precarious situation I find myself in] ¡°Oh? You know my old man. My mother told me that she got knocked up by some random shinobi who was passing through town. All she had to remember him was his headband and me so named me after him but who would have thought my father was important enough to know one of the legendary sanin.¡± ¡°I don¡¯t understand if you really are Yahiko''s son why did you not find him when you grew up?¡± ¡°My village was attacked when I was a child. All that I knew was erased and I was sold into slavery by the raiders who took my home from me. After a few random owners I found myself in one of Orochimaru''s labs. He subjected me to countless tests while combining my body with the horn of the eight tailed beast turning me into the monster you see before you. I was lucky that the Akatsuki found me while raiding their former member¡¯s base. Now I owe them a debt that can never be paid.¡± Jiraiya happy mood took turn for the worse; I felt a chill go down my back as I watched the anger form on his face ¡°Orochimaru turned you into this¡­ I am so sorry. I was supposed to have stopped him long ago and now one of my former disciple¡¯s children has been caught up in all this¡± [Good I need him to feel doubt, now he will hesitate when it comes to killing me] ¡°Join me¡± Jiraiya said in a serious voice ¡°Huh?¡± Kisame Itachi and I all asked confused. ¡°You don¡¯t have to serve them anymore. I will raise you as penance for Orochimaru¡¯s sins¡± ¡°Ok¡± I agreed while walking to his side ¡°Heheheheh. Things aren¡¯t looking in our favour Itachi-san. What should we do¡± Kisame asked amused at my betrayal. Itachi responded by activating his Mangeky¨­. As soon as I reached Jiraiya side I turned to face Itachi and Kisame. ¡°I know what the two of you can do next¡­ DIE!¡± I shouted while swinging my katana at the unsuspecting Jiraiya who dodged it with ease. ¡°What?!¡± I asked as I felt the heel of Jiraiya''s foot kick into my stomach. I flew down the hall and crashed into Itachi and Kisame. ¡°I know brainwashing doesn¡¯t correct itself easily. I will save you Yahiko after I kill Itachi and Kisame.¡± ¡°Hehehehe. It seems your plan didn¡¯t work, for a moment I thought Itachi and I were going to have to kill you before we escaped¡± Kisame said while standing up. Itachi didn¡¯t say anything. He seemed to be deep in thought. ¡°Yahiko Jiraiya won¡¯t kill you. Therefore only you can serve as our vanguard while we devise a new plan¡± [I¡¯m a glorified meat shield huh? Whatever...] I run down the hallway towards Jiraiya who seems ready for me. Right before we clash I use sonido and appear right behind him and stab him in his back. Jiraiya quick reflexes allow him to move out of the way and avoid death. I still managed to cut the right side of his abdomen leaving behind a large open wound. ¡°Space time transportation without weaving signs at that age! Your father would be proud¡± Jiraiya said with pride in his voice. ¡°Shut up old man!¡± I used sonido and appeared behind him only to be met with an uppercut strong enough to cause my mask to crack. ¡°Fool, the same trick won¡¯t work on me twice!¡± I threw my free fist at him who was countered with a powerful judo throw. ¡°I haven¡¯t even used any justu yet¡± he said laughing ¡°for someone with so much power you are still weak¡± [he¡¯s kicking my ass with pure skill. damn him] As I tried to stand I felt my legs wobble. I looked around to see why Itachi and Kisame hadn¡¯t attacked while I was getting my ass kicked. ¡°¡­¡± They were nowhere to be seen. [They left me? Bastards!] ¡°You¡¯re friends left you. Do you really need any more reasons to stay?¡± ¡°I don¡¯t need them I can take you on by my-¡± I was interrupted by a pain tearing though my back all the way to my insides. ¡°RASENGAN!¡± [What a disgusting attack! It does so much internal damage. I really need to learn ninja techniques, randomly swinging my sword won¡¯t be enough] I had already started healing when I stabbed Naruto in the head ¡°fuck the mission!¡± Naruto¡¯s body turned into smoke and two more Naruto¡¯s appeared and I received another rasengan to the face and the lower part of my mask broke. [Shit I need to escape now!] I used sonido to move to the end of the hallway lowered my horns towards the unconscious Sasuke , the two Naruto¡¯s and Jiraiya who seemed to have an idea of what I was about to do because he was weaving the hand signs for a summoning. I willed all the power left in my mask into a red ball forming between my horns and roared ¡°CEROOOOOOOOOO!¡± Jiraiya managed to complete his summoning in time and a giant armoured toad appeared directly in front of me taking most of the attack itself. The resulting explosion destroyed half of the hotel and left the frog in pieces. I used the confusion to leave the village and get to our rendezvous point. Itachi and Kisame were waiting for me when I arrived ¡°Heheheh you actually survived, now I know you didn¡¯t tell us all your tricks¡± Kisame said playfully ¡°Yahiko. You are not fit to be a shinobi, I will recommend to Pain that you train before you go out and risk the lives of further members. You even revealed your identity just because Jiraiya made a random guess. He did not even see your face but you assumed he knew you. How would he know who you are just because of your name which could be false, your hair colour which can easily be changed and the Amegakure headband you wear around your neck which could be stolen. He will now suspect that our organisation might have a link to Amegakure. We are only saved because he would doubt that a ninja he just met was a long lost relative of his disciple.¡± ¡°What?¡± I asked. Disbelief was all I could feel at the moment. ¡°Hehehehe. He was playing you. He never believed a word you said and only played along so that you could slip up and reveal something important. You don¡¯t become a legend by playing into every sad story you hear, especially an enemy¡¯s¡± it was Kisame¡¯s turn to insult me. ¡°Wait what would have happened if I was captured?¡± ¡°I placed a curse seal inside your body before we started the mission, upon capture it wold release Amaterasu flames within your body which would turn you into ash¡± Itachi said this as though it was common knowledge ¡°Why don¡¯t I remember that?¡± I said panicking slightly. ¡°I erased your memory after weakening your mind with Tsukuyomi, I even know of your other soul¡± [Ok. So Itachi is actually the strongest person I have come into contact with, he is more of a threat than Pain and that¡¯s saying something.]I then asked my hollow self [why didn¡¯t we notice anything] White responded {I have been experiencing a familiar feeling. similar to when S¨­suke Aizen controlled me. I tried to reach out and tell you but I couldn¡¯t. so I reacted the only way I knew how I made us more violent in the hopes that you would notice something but you seemed to embrace the bloodlust instead of coming into my domain to ask what was causing it.} [Oh. I wondered why you hadn¡¯t spoken to me even with all the fighting going on. Whatever we just have to retrieve Kakashi¡¯s Sharingan and then no more Sharingan manipulation bullshit] ¡°Hehehe. Itachi-san I think you scared him. He has been quiet for a while now¡± Kisame¡¯s voice brought me back to reality. ¡°Remove the seal in my body!¡± ¡°Ok, afterwards we shall make our way back to Amegakure. But we stay here for now. I need to rest¡± After having my seal removed Itachi and Kisame sat down inside the hideout and I patrolled the surrounding area. [If I am to get stronger I need to learn jiujutsu and acquire sword techniques. Tomorrow. I don¡¯t care what It takes tomorrow I¡¯m getting Samehada''s abilities!] Meanwhile in Konoha Might Guy ¡°Kakashi don¡¯t get up the medical ninja said you have to rest¡± Kakashi remembered what had happened to him and began to sob. ¡°Where is Asuma?¡± Guy hesitated ¡°he is in the psychiatric ward; he needs time to recover from this¡± ¡°Guy we need to get stronger, so strong that no one dares to hurt Konoha!¡± ¡°Kakashi? Are you ok you seem different?¡± ¡°No I just understand what needs to be done, call Danzo we need his help training the next generation of shinobi¡± ¡°Ok¡± chapter 7 first mission part 1 1 Year Later Danzo Danzo stood on an elevated balcony and watched Genin and Ch¨±nin train. Unlike the past were he only had a handful of ninja to train there where hundreds in front of him now. He thought to himself [if only Sarutobi were here to see my rise, no, if Sarutobi were here none of this would have been possible. He was my greatest friend yet the chain which held my full potential back. I thank Akatsuki for attacking Konoha right after the death of the third Hokage. Although Itachi meant it to be a message to me to keep Sasuke safe it had the opposite effect and that Uchiha rodent left Konoha and ran right into the jaws of that snake Orochimaru. The after effects of the attack have left me with all the power in Konoha. Sure ¡®princess¡¯ Tsunade had the position of Hokage but I had the hearts of all the ninja new and old. Life truly is unexpected] Danzo looked to his left and took notice of the ninja which would no doubt become the backbone of Konoha in the years to come. These shinobi who had recently undergone their rite of passage into the cruel and unforgiving shinobi world were given nicknames by their fellow shinobi. These titles would one day become as famous as Konoha''s white fang or the hidden leafs yellow flash. Team 10 also known as ino-shika-cho consisted of: Ino Yamanaka the body snatcher. Best known for taking over enemies bodies and using them in suicidal attacks against their comrades. Shikamaru Nara the mad genius. Best known for his sadistic schemes and tactics. Currently being mentored to one day take over Anbu. Ch¨­ji Akimichi gluttony. His nickname refers to the obscene amounts of food he eats before and after missions. Some say it¡¯s his way of coping after having crushed grown men like insects between his fingers. Team Guy also known as the breakers because of how broken and enemy which came into contact with them had become consisted of: Rock Lee konoha¡¯s beast the green berserker. Known for his constant drunken rages and unbeatable taijutsu. Over the past year Lee had drank to the point where you could not tell if he was sober or not. Upon achieving his enlightenment he gained access to the 7th gate and could rival Guy in skill. Neji Hy¨±ga the loyal retainer. Neji who was once known as the Hy¨±ga clan¡¯s genius relinquished his title to a stronger junior and swore his loyalty to her. This does not mean his talent has faded as he still qualified to take the J¨­nin test next week and will be the first among his peers to do so. Tenten the walking warehouse of horrors. She uses her storage ability called F¨±injutsu to store an assortment of torture tools. She was handpicked by the Konoha Torture and Interrogation Force and trained to be the next leader of their faction. She truly enjoys her enemies¡¯ pain and anguish. The last team was team 8 also known as the avengers .this was because they threw away their morals and humanity all in the pursuit of power to avenge the gruesome death of their mentor, advisor and mother figure Kurenai Y¨±hi. This team consisted of: Shino Aburame the infestation or plague. Known for his ingenious use of insects to devastate a population¡¯s food supply and infect innocents with a variety of diseases carried by his insects. Perfect way to wipe out small villages and feign ignorance when the bigger villages get involved. Kiba Inuzuka the heart stealer and the wolf Akamaru known for their bloody fighting style and cannibalism. Kiba is known for being more beast than man and many ninja would not wish for their enemies to die the way many of Kiba''s victims do. Hinata Hy¨±ga the fallen princess. The greatest Byakugan user the Hy¨±ga clan has ever seen. After hearing of the death of her mentor something snapped inside her. She killed her rival and younger sister and stole her eyes for herself claiming a man on the moon told her it would grant her strength. To everyone¡¯s surprise she awakened the Tenseigan and became undisputed amongst the Hy¨±ga. She liberated all of the Hy¨±ga clan¡¯s branch family members and declared that only the strong had the right to rule the Hy¨±ga not just bloodlines. This caused Neji to become her loyal retainer. Every J¨­nin has stated their belief that she will become the next Hokage. ¡°Look at konoha¡¯s future¡± Danzo said while turning to face F¨± Yamanaka and Torune Aburame his personal bodyguards. ¡°It looks beautiful sir¡± F¨± replied respectfully ¡°Tell me how Sai is doing on his training¡± ¡°He has progressed significantly after the death of his brother¡± Torune replied ¡°Great now all I have to do is wait for Tsunade to finish training that Sakura girl and I will use Kakashi to convert her to our side! The only Genin I don¡¯t have control over is Naruto¡± Danzo said frowning while remembering how Jiraiya had refused to allow Danzo to train Naruto. [When Akatsuki comes again they will be in for a big surprise, my Konoha is powerful! hahahhahahahaha] Interlude: first mission The night was cold, not a single sound could be heard in this unnamed forest. The full moon gave the trees shadows that that eerily resembles disfigured humans. With the silence came a heavy tension in the air. With every passing moment it threatened to break. Hiding in one of these shadows was a Genin from a small village found in the fire country whose name would soon be forgotten. The boy was 14 years old and was just a mission away from earning Ch¨±nin status in his village. He was waiting for something, a noise, movement, a flash of light. Anything that would indicate the location of his opponent. His squad had been ambushed and separated while on their nightly Patrol of their village. They encountered multiple shinobi but only three stayed behind to match the three on patrol while the others went on ahead.A case of theft: this story is not rightfully on Amazon; if you spot it, report the violation. His heart couldn¡¯t stop pounding as he thought to himself [why. This was supposed to be a simple patrol of our village¡¯s borders. Why would anyone attack us? Didn¡¯t they know we are protected by Konoha? There were so many ninja attacking us, maybe this might be it for our village¡­ no I must hold onto hope Konoha will save us we just need to send for help] While thinking he felt a breath against the back of his neck and a rough animalistic voice whispered in his ear ¡°you suck at hiding, at least hide your scent¡± The Genin jumped back into the light of the moon and looked in the direction of the voice but there was no one there. ¡°Behind you¡± the voice whispered again. The Genin slashed his concealed kunai while turning but his attack only met air. That was when he started to hear a low grumble turning into a continuous growl coming from the trees above him. When he looked up a vicious dog pounced onto his face and mauled his eyes out. While the boy cried for help a ninja walked to his side with a displeased face. This ninja was Kiba Inuzuka. ¡°Bad Akamaru, you ruined the fun. Now he can¡¯t watch us kill him. Hmm. well that doesn¡¯t matter anyway this is our first mission under Danzo. We can¡¯t play around like we used to. First Kurenai then we failed the Sasuke retrieval mission. This will be our big win, now what was the main objective Danzo gave us again?¡± the dog gave a sinister yelp ¡°arfff¡± ¡°that¡¯s right¡­ eat a human heart and become one with the beast instead of just mimicking it¡± The Genin who had lost his eyes listened as the ninja who removed his eyes casually spoke about eating his heart and decided to try one last bluff. ¡°The Konoha shinobi should be on their way to protect us! Run now and you might still make it!¡± the boy spoke his final words with false bravado and superiority. ¡°eh¡­ what are you talking about we are Konoha shinobi¡± before the boy could react Kiba slit his throat with his claws and said ¡°hurry Akamaru for the beast transformation technique to work we have to eat our way to his heart while he¡¯s still alive¡± by the time Kiba and Akamaru ate their way to the boys heart he had already died ¡°shit we failed¡­ doesn¡¯t matter we have a lot more victims to try this on before the night ends¡± ¡°arf arf!¡± Akamaru barked with delight. In another part of the forest another Genin ran for his life as a swarm of insects closed in on him. ¡°Why are you doing this!¡± he dived to the side as a cloud of insect zoomed by him. ¡°You are playing with me, just let me go¡± he knew the insects had already surrounded him. There was no way he could escape and surely he was going to die but for some reason the one controlling the insects didn¡¯t go for the kill, he only messed around with him. ¡°I know who you people are. Insect users belong to the Aburame clan of Konoha our ally! Why are you invading us¡± the Genin shouted into the swarm of insects that surrounded him. The insects suddenly stilled and the loud buzzing became a soothing hum. The insects formed the shape of a boy and slowly transformed into Shino. The insect clone of Shino then spoke. ¡°Konoha was your ally but now we need to test the loyalty and determination of our J¨­nin Ch¨±nin and Genin and what better way than killing an innocent village full of lower class ninja.¡± Shino said this with a monotonous voice. ¡°Then why haven¡¯t you killed me. It must be because you see this is madness. Help me save my family no one will know what you have done and you can leave this hell with a clear conscious¡± ¡°Please do not make assumptions about my character. I haven¡¯t killed you because each and every ninja here has a task to fulfil. Mine just happens to be manipulation. I will now insert a parasite into your bloodstream. You will have enough time to visit your family so that you spread it to them or I can torture you to death right now. Maybe a spider bite here a centipede there and maggots in your eyes and ears. I ¡®ll try a whole bunch of combinations until I find the one capable of breaking you so bad that you spread by parasitic insects willingly.¡± The Genin could not believe what he was hearing. He chose to keep fighting. ¡°Fire style flame wall technique!¡± the Genin shouted while weaving the hand signs for the technique his father passed down to him *flashback*(Genin) A 32 year old Ch¨±nin shouted ¡®flame wall technique¡¯ and a ten foot tall and 8 foot wide wall of flame shot out from in front of him. ¡°Dad that technique is amazing, how long do you think it will take for me to do it!¡± ¡°hahah son you are the hope of our family. You are already about to become a Ch¨±nin at 16 years old! Your talent far surpasses mine. I¡¯m sure you will have mastered this technique in a month. Please carve your path to the top. My flaming hope!¡± The man embraced his son and cried tears of hope. *flashback over* ¡°Dad this is for you!¡±¡­. but nothing happened when he finished weaving the signs. Shino then spoke ¡°oh I forgot to tell you I started infesting your body ages ago. Your chakra circulation is now under my control¡± Shino smiled for the first time as he witnessed the Genin cry tears of defeat. ¡°Now let¡¯s start the torture¡± Ten minutes later the Genin way obeying Shino''s orders like a servant does with his master and quickly went to infect his family members. ¡°Finally that took forever! I need to get some hearts before the others kill everyone inside that village¡± ¡°arf arf¡± Kiba and Akamaru whined from the tree above Shino. ¡°Sorry torture is not my expertise; I heard we will be depending on Tenten for such quicker results¡± ¡°Here I prefer a hands on approach. If you want something done right do it yourself!¡± Kiba said while showing off his bloody canines ¡°Kiba Danzo gave us all roles for efficiency.do you doubt his orders¡± Shino said in a serious tone ¡°h-hey stop putting words in my mouth. You know that¡¯s not what I meant.¡± ¡°Arf¡± ¡°Sorry Kiba I did not mean to threaten you. Let us find Hinata¡± ¡°Shit! Do we have to? Watching her kill scares me. Remember what she did to Hanabi.¡± ¡°Hmm I do. That is why we must look after her; she takes too much time enjoying the kill. It leaves her vulnerable to attack from behind¡± ¡°I¡¯ll attack her behind if you know what I mean. hehehe. But no her Tenseigan are crazy powerful who can sneak up on her now?¡± Kiba said with a sly grin. ¡°The man who killed Kurenai.¡± Shino said with a dead voice. ¡°Let¡¯s go check up on her¡± all the playfulness had left Kiba¡¯s voice after Shino¡¯s reminder that they were still weak. After skipping from tree to tree for about 500 metres they could see Hinata in a clearing in the forest. The only word that could describe her was breath-taking. She was twirling around as if in a beautiful dance. She paid no attention to her surroundings as if in a trance. As Kiba and Shino got closer they noticed the third member of the patrol squad was with her. He was a J¨­nin and seemed to be quite confident in his abilities. If Kakashi had not instructed them to let Hinata fight the J¨­nin alone they would have been the first to help her. Well the first right after her retainer Neji. The J¨­nin was as still as a statue and had veins bulging throughout his skin. Hinata suddenly stopped and turned to face Kiba and Shino. ¡°Oh you guys are done. Now I can finally finish up¡± Hinata walked up to the J¨­nin and started to kiss his unresponsive mouth while making lewd noises. ¡°Doesn¡¯t death just arouse you¡± she said and hit a pressure point on the base of the man¡¯s back. His mini solider suddenly stood full solute. She then proceeded to make love to the statue. When she finished she pressed another pressure point on the J¨­nin''s forehead and his body began to disfigure slowly. The man couldn¡¯t scream because he was unable to fully control his muscles but moaned in pain. The noise was filled the silence of the night. Kiba and Shino turned away as the man¡¯s body slowly imploded and disfigured itself until it finally burst into a pool of organs tendons bones and blood. ¡°See. Just like Hanabi, only difference was this was a man¡± Kiba said to Shino ¡°Come on guys don¡¯t look away. He gets to die and leave this hell we call a world while we stay and ¡®follow our way of the ninja¡¯ hihihi. Plus it¡¯s not like he felt it when I fucked him, I turned off all his sensory neurons, but I did turn them back on for his death. No one should escape the pain that is life without a little hardship right?¡± Kiba and Shino just nodded in agreement and made their way to the village. They all had a mission to complete. sorry for the delay- not a chapter i am so sorry for the delay in eleasing the next chapter. work at the hospital has been tough and everyone there seems to have a favour they need me to do for them. staying on the good side of the resident doctors and the nurses has got me working overtime. I am hoping to release a chapter by friday. thank you for your patience with me! Unauthorized use: this story is on Amazon without permission from the author. Report any sightings. . chapter 8 end of the first mission and beginning of a new era. ¡°Guy are you ready?¡± ¡°No Kakashi I¡¯m not. Is what we are about to do really essential for our growth?¡± ¡°Yes Guy you need to throw away your weakness, your unwillingness to harm those that are innocent. You need to walk the true path of ninja. Did you really think that all we do as ninja is help old ladies cross the road or escort some rich noble from his doorstep to his garden? Wake up Guy! Ninja kill, we kill, we feed of war and chaos. Ninja have no use during times of peace. All we do is prepare for our next war. Guy you know what you signed up for when you became a ninja. Both our fathers died because of the unfairness of the ninja world, they both walked in the path of light and died because of it. Let¡¯s walk the true dark path of shinobi and celebrate our victories with cups filled with our enemy¡¯s blood.¡± Guy looked into Kakashi¡¯s eyes. He noticed one of them had changed into the Mangekyou pattern. Guy turned from Kakashi¡¯s gaze and stared at the burning village below them. Once an ally of Konoha but now a training ground to rid the next generation off their emotions. He watched the embers float and twirl in the air; he smelled the smoke in the air and heard the cries for help coming from multiple directions. He hated the fact that in the face of all this chaos and pain he wanted nothing more than to try out a new series of moves he had been working on called ¡°Night Guy¡±. He turned to face the village and spoke while fighting to stop a smile forming on his face ¡°ok Kakashi, let us become true shinobi and when Akatsuki or anyone wanting to cause harm to our village shows up we will make them beg for death¡± Kakashi smiled at his old friend, comrade and brother ¡°yes Guy let us take the first steps towards a better future¡± As guy and Kakashi made their way towards the burning village the last of konoha¡¯s innocence was destroyed and replaced with something more sinister 1 year after the Konoha invasion Yahiko stood in the middle of a training area within an underground Akatsuki base. He had been swinging his sword continuously for the last minute while counting out each swing. ¡°One million nine hundred and ninety nine thousand nine hundred and ninety nine. Two million! Hahaha two million swings in one minute!¡± Yahiko declared with pride. ¡°Hehehe don¡¯t lie just because I walked into the room.¡± Said Kisame as he and Itachi walked into the room. ¡°Hahaha Kisame-senpai I could never trick you. I actually only managed to reach 240¡± ¡°Hehehe my lessons have been working. You can now swing your sword 4 times per second without sacrificing the integrity of each swing. Add that to the fact that you were able to copy Samehada''s abilities and it shows how much of a monster you have become while training under me¡± [Heh Kisame couldn¡¯t be more right. It took me a year to perfect copying Samehada¡¯s abilities. Who knew that copying swords ability and actually being able to use them without mistakes would be this hard? ] ¡°Could you two stop talking about training and actually put all those wasted hours to use. One of my connections has revealed the location of one of our targets. His name is R¨­shi; he is a shinobi of Iwagakure and the jinch¨±riki of the Four-Tails. Pain declared that if you manage to take him down by yourself you become a fully-fledged member of Akatsuki and can choose who you want to be partners with¡± [Finally! I hate being on the same team with Itachi. Last year I warned Nagato that Itachi is not trustworthy but all he did was tell me to ¡®observe him further¡¯. Ever since I noticed Itachi didn¡¯t seem too interested in the jinch¨±riki. He seemed more concerned with my fellow junior member Tobi and Tobi seemed to be the friendliest of all the members. ] ¡°Ok. So what do you know about R¨­shi?¡± I tried my best not to sound eager. ¡°We only know his description. All his abilities are unknown¡± [Why do I get the feeling Itachi is lying to me. He always withholds vital information which could get me killed. If he wanted me dead why didn¡¯t he just do it himself, maybe having me die while fighting an enemy will give him plausible deniability] ¡°Ok so what¡¯s his description, where can we find him and when are we leaving¡± I said clearly displaying the resentment I had towards Itachi. ¡°Hehehe. Now that the little fish has teeth it wants to swim with the sharks. Beware Itachi it looks like this one has his sights on you¡± [leave it to Kisame to say what¡¯s on everyone¡¯s minds] ¡°I don¡¯t fear anyone. Yahiko if you have a problem with me don¡¯t bitch about it. Do something.¡± Itachi paused and allowed his statement to linger while activating his Mangekyou. [Damn. Why does it feel like Itachi is someone I can¡¯t beat? Maybe he could have taken on Jiraiya without backup. Something tells me he is just holding back. But why? And last but not least did he just call me a bitch? ]Stolen story; please report. Itachi seemed satisfied with my lack of response ¡°good. Now to answer your questions. He has red hair, moustache and beard which tapered off to a point. He has been seen wearing a large headpiece consisting of a three pointed crown-like ridge, bearing both his Iwagakure forehead protector. He was spotted in a nearby town and we are leaving immediately¡± Right after Itachi finished speaking the trio put on their infamous Akatsuki robes and made their way to the town. They arrived after sunset and where greeted by bright neon lights in the shapes of various women and XXX signs [Itachi forgot to mention this was a debauchery town. I mean do people actually live here. It¡¯s like every establishment was meant for sex, alcohol or gambling.] ¡°Hmmm. Itachi. Yahiko. We will commence searching for the jinch¨±riki tomorrow. Tonight let¡¯s find a place to rest. I also think it¡¯s best if we all find separate places to stay. It will give us a better chance at bumping into our target.¡± [I see what you¡¯re trying to do. Well it is true all I have been doing since I reincarnated was killing and training. It won¡¯t hurt to have a little fun once in a while right? Wait who am I trying to convince¡­ time to spend the company funds for some 5 star fun] ¡°I agree with you Kisame. We can all meet at the entrance of the village tomorrow¡± [hohoho. Itachi you too!] We all nodded and just like that a silent oath between men was made and soon after we all parted ways. [Oh shit oh shit oh shit! What should I do first? Well alcohol doesn¡¯t affect me because my poison resistance is off the charts. I don¡¯t like gambling because I always loose when I make bets. That just leaves¡­] To my surprise it was white the manifestation of my soul who replied my thoughts {S-E-X. That is the only option that remains and from what I can tell it was the first thing that popped into your mind the moment we arrived onii-chan. If it wasn¡¯t for this big robe people would have seen your true sword fully activated and ready to penetrate!} White sounded like an anime high school girl. [Hey don¡¯t read my thoughts they are private. Plus I feel like you are speaking differently] {Sorry I thought you were asking me for an answer. all I have to keep me busy all day is to go through your thoughts and past memories. Maybe that¡¯s why I feel so free to speak with you onii-san. Actually from now on I have decided to speak more often and nothing you say can change that! Humph!} [Past memories?] What was more disturbing than the scary ass hollow inside my soul speaking like an idiot was the fact that he had access to my past memories. {I can see them but I won¡¯t show you. After you see them you will change. I like this blood thirsty version more than the person you were before.} [Whatever I don¡¯t care anyway time to get laid] {You do care. I can read your thoughts. Remember.} I ignored white and made my way towards the nearest ¡®hotel¡¯. There was a muscular bouncer at the door watching as people made their way inside. [I wonder what a bouncer could do to a ninja. Sometimes I wonder how the normal people feel about overpowered super humans who defy their basic understanding] As I walked in a butler dressed in a black suit led me to a lobby filled with women and men of all colours ages and ethnicities. [Ok looks like they have everything here. Is that an albino horse in the corner?] Seeing the direction I was looking in the man said ¡°I am sorry to say Brian the ninja horse is out of commission. He could not make it as a ninja but he is well known for his transformation techniques. He caught a nasty case of super ninja AIDs. I heard it¡¯s strong enough to kill a shinobi with even the highest regenerative abilities. It¡¯s such a shame as he was our highest earner. Even Nobles from faraway lands would come just to experience him.¡± ¡°Ok not here for the horse. Is ninja AIDs a thing? And if it is how can it be transferred?¡± I think I found my way of beating Itachi. ¡°Only by sharing chakra and body fluids at the same time. But whatever you are thinking I advise against it. The side effect of ninja aids is weakening of a shinobi and can cause that shinobi to cough up blood during fights several times before killing them¡± *for fans who didn¡¯t get this reference I was talking about Itachi vs. Sasuke. I swear Itachi had super ninja AIDs.¡¯ He died of a mysterious illness¡¯ my ass. So I¡¯m just filling in some blanks which the original left out* I walked up to Brian and said ¡°I heard you couldn¡¯t make it as a shinobi. Do you want to complete one last mission before you kick the bucket?¡± He didn¡¯t even think before he transformed back into his human form and shouted ¡°yes! Please give me a mission!¡± [That was easy] ¡°Here is konoha¡¯s bingo book. See this man Itachi Uchiha. He is an S rank badass who killed his entire clan for fun. I want you to give him ninja AIDs.¡± ¡°Hahahah. Finally a chance for my skills to shine. He won¡¯t be the first shinobi I have trapped. But he definitely will be the last. The crown jewel of my collection!¡± [This guy is dangerous. He may not have the chakra levels of those I have faced in the past but he definitely has a wicked mind-set] I left Brian to go do what he had to do and decided to go wait at the entrance of the city until morning. Suddenly I didn¡¯t feel like trying out what this city had to offer. As I made my way to the entrance I felt as though I was being watched. I looked around but I couldn¡¯t spot the culprit. Only after I reached the entrance of the town did I hear footsteps following closely behind me. ¡°Akatsuki huh¡­ it¡¯s strange you managed to find me. I heard you always travel in pairs. Where is your partner?¡± the voice behind me sounded rough, aged and wise. When I turned around to see who it was I saw the man in front of me looked serene and war hardened. [So this is R¨­shi huh. His chakra feels animalistic. This is going to be a crazy fight] ¡°I don¡¯t have a partner. I¡¯m one of the stronger members of Akatsuki, having a partner would be overkill¡± ¡°Hmm. You are a horrible liar. So you truly must be as young as your face shows. You can never tell who someone is these days. But you have the smell of a rookie. I saw you leave Kisame and Itachi behind. You must be the brat who did a number on Konoha a year ago. I heard rumours but I couldn¡¯t believe a new face caused all this trouble, rumour has it you are just Orochimaru¡¯s next body¡± ¡°You talk too much lets fight!¡± ¡°See what I mean. Wet behind the ears. Every good ninja fight requires a dialogue which lasts 10 to 15 minutes¡± [That sounds so familiar. The ninja talk for ten minutes then the episode ends right before the fight] ¡°Whatever let¡¯s do this!¡±
