Chapter 10: Dragons Unleashed!
The Arena was silent for only a moment befoee the Kage box exploded and four figures jumped from the smoke onto a nearby rooftop and were incased in a purple barrier. The Oto and Sand shinobi that were supposed to be in the crowd went up in puffs of smoke. Apparently, Sora had decided to go ahead and remove the Oto shinobi from the stands, whilst spreading the word that the Kazekage was not really the Kazekage but an Imposter. Unfortunately, Naruto, Sasuke, and Genma were facing 10 Oto shinobi down on the floor. The shinobi in the crowd were ready to join the fight when Naruto smirked.
"Uchiha Sasuke. Come with us. Orochimaru-sama offers you power." The Jounin among the group said.
Sasuke simply growled and readied himself for an attack. Naruto brought his Katana up to bear and held it straight out infront of him. "BAN-KAI!" He yelled. (think how Ichigo says it in Bleach.) His chakra swirled around him and entered the sword before it glowed and changed. Now he held a golden shamshir with a blue lightning bolt arcing from the tip to the handle which had a dark blue Tsuba and golden wrappings around the hilt. He simply disappeared and then reappeared in front of the Jounin, who was too shocked at a his speed to move, and decapitated him. He back flipped and dropped into his Swordmaster stance (check chapter 8 for stance. This will be his default stance) and disappeared. 7 Oto shinobi died due to various lethal cuts while the last two were taken out by Genma and Sasuke. "Genjitsu kara kieru, Ryu Senko." (Vanish from Reality, Dragon Flash) Naruto said calmly.
Sasuke whistled, "Nice Blade! Why don't I have one like that!" He said angrily.
"Not now Sasuke." Naruto said, "We need to regroup. Plus, I wanna know how Oji-san is doing."
By then, everyone in the stands had gathered on the floor. Kakashi spoke up, being the most senior member of the forces, "Agreed. It would be a good staging point. We need to get a layout of the Village. Everyone to the barrier quickly." The various ninja's nodded and proceeded to disappear and reappear at their destination.
Barrier: Same Time
Orochimaru had just revealed himself to his sensei when Sora and Anko landed beside him. "Sora! I'm glad your here. I could use some help." Sarutobi said before he looked at Anko and frowned, "Anko, This is dangerous. Your not..."
Sora cut him off, never once breaking eye contact with Orochimaru, "She'll be fine Wyrm. She trained with us for years remember? Plus, my wife won't be beaten so easily."
Anko smirked, "Ya Oji-san, Worry about yourself. I'll be fine. Ryu-kun over there let me train with some of the best Dragons around. I won't get another chance like this."
Sarutobi sighed, "No matter what I say it won't change you so..." He summoned Enma who promptly transformed into his staff form, "Let's take him down!"
Sora smirked, "Glad to see you so passionate Wyrm!" He turned his attention fully to Orochimaru who was watching amused, "I'd say 'good to see you again' but I'm sure you don't know who I am. In any case, Thank You." Sora said. This gained looks of surprise from the three other people in the barrier, not to mention the people outside. "If you hadn't given Hebi-hime here her hickey... I wouldn't have this wonderful mate. So Thanks." Anko was smiling broadly, Sarutobi and a kind smile, while Orochimaru looked thoroughly confused.
"I'm surprised that anyone would claim that failure as a mate." Orochimaru said, gaining withering glares from the Leaf shinobi, "Nonetheless, I'll be happy to see you two together... In hell!" He said as he started to run through handseals. "Kuchiyose: Edo Tensei!" (Summoning: Impure World Resurection) Three coffins arose and caused Sarutobi to pale. They all had Kanji going from Sho to Ni to Yon on them. Sora looked grim and Anko frowned at her ex-sensei.
Outside the Barrier
By now, everyone had arrived, even the Gennin. Naruto looked enraged at what Orochimaru was doing and Hana asked him, "Naruto-kun. What's wrong?"
Naruto gritted his teeth in anger. "He's summoning the Sho, Ni, and Yondaime Hokages to battle the Sandaime!" He said.
The gathered ninjas were outraged. How dare this traitor summon the old Hokages! How dare he disturb their rest! "There's no way they will fight for him!" A random Chunin yelled.
Naruto shook his head, "They won't have a choice. He will control them." Many wanted to ask how he knew this information. Kakashi would have asked, if he hadn't been observing Sora.
Everyone could hear Orochimaru as he started to talk and many did not like where this talk was going. Sora growled as Orochimaru laughed, "You said I didn't know you? How wrong you are! Sora Ryu or perhaps Ryuujin!" He said. "I even have a plan for you. I'm glad I decided to take him up on his offer." Orochimaru said darkly.
"Who the hell offered you anything?" Sora asked a little annoyed at this snake in the grass.
A dark laughter filled the air and many of the ninja started to feel a deep primordial fear. "Why I did Ryuujin." said a dep voice. A dark portal was hovering over the barrier. From the portal stepped a thing of freakish nightmares. It had a cannine-ish face with a long snout full of sharp teeth. Two glowing red eyes and horns that curved slightly inward at the top of its head. It had four arms, two smaller clawed ones on its chest and two large pincer ones. He floated in the air being help up by seemingly nothing. "Its not everyday I get the chance to become a legend and kill a student of the fabled Dragon General."
Sora's eyes narrowed, "Who are you? Normally, I wouldn't care but you have peaked my interest."
The Glabrezu laughed maniacally, "My name? Retsen. You cannot escape that barrier and I shall deal with your student myself."
Sora and Anko shared a look that said, 'Is this guy deluded or what?' However Sora decided to play the game, "Really? and what would it take to get you to leave him alone?"
Retsen smirked, "Nothing. I WILL kill him. You have only trained him for four months. He cannot be powerful enough to defeat me and my battalion."
The ninja outside the barrier were shifting nervously, the attack seemingly forgotten at the moment. Naruto stood next to Hana and stared straight at the demon who was threatening him. Hana was nervous and didn't know what to believe until Naruto put a hand her shoulder and smiled. She smiled back and grabbed his hand.
Sora grimaced slightly, although he was happy that Orochimaru was holding his attack, obviously amused at this scene. "Surely, there must be something?"
Retsen had a wicked smile, "Well, I heard that your student has a potential mate. If he was to give her to me to be my plaything, Maybe I could be convinced to spare him."
Everything froze for a second before Sora and Anko had the same thought, 'He did NOT just say that!'
Unfortunately for the demon, He was very wrong about Naruto's abilties. The last thing he heard before his vision was destroyed was, "Ryu Sennin Hijutsu: Ryu no Tamashi Kai!" (Dragon Sage Secret Technique: Dragon Soul Release!) While the demon wasn't paying attention, Naruto's chakra had skyrocketed. His golden chakra enveloped him as he said those words and his body changed. His legs below the knee changed to scaled and a five clawed foot. Below the elbow, the same happened although the hands remained five finger the claws were retractable here. His shirt disappeared, although his cargo pants remained, and a reptilian tail sprouted from his tailbone. Scales went up his spine to connect the tail to two powerful looking wings. Every last one of his scales were a brilliant gold color. His eyes shown with a fierce power and fury. Lightning arced around his being, freely manipulated. He disappeared only to create over 100 after images around the Retsen. As Naruto landed he calmly said, "Ryuujin no Senko." (Flash of the Dragon God) The demon promptly turned into a cloud of red mist. Only the more experienced members of Kenjutsu knew just how difficult it would be to hit someone that many times.
Sora chuckled, "He really shouldn't have said that."
Anko barked out a laugh, "No shit! And I thought YOU were protective. He turned the guy into mist for Christ's sake."
Hana was a bit stunned. She hadn't even had time to make a retort before Naruto introduced the demon to oblivion. Surprisingly, His new form had sparked a very feral desire and that display of strength practically demanded that she acknowledge him. She knew she needed something to quell her feral nature soon or she may very well jump him. She looked to her right where he stood, his back turned to the Leaf ninja. Little did she know that he was staring at the demons who were assembled behind the shinobi that were attacking the front gates.
Inside the Barrier
The coffin lids fell open causing people to start to sweat a bit. From them, the Hokages of old were alive once again. The Sho and Nidaime were exchanging banter with Sarutobi while Minato stared sadly at Sora.
"So I have to fight you do I? This won't be easy." Minato said.
Sora simply sighed and nodded before getting ready to fight himself. He didn't want to, but He was the only one who could match the Yondaime inside the barrier.
Orochimaru had enough and stabbed the three people with the tags to ensure their obediance to him.
"Sarutobi, You take the Sho and Nidaimes. I'll distract the Yondaime. Anko, take your ex-sensei." Sora said. The two others nodded and moved to engage.
Outside the Barrier
Kakashi decided to start barking out orders. "OK. Since there are demons, They will be our top priority. All Gennin are to report to the caves and help direct and protect the civilians. Chunin, report to designated defensive zones. Jounin, aid in the frontline defence and I will lead a specialized group againest the demons!"
A random Chunin spoke up, "How can we win? We are being attacked by two nations AND demons!"
Naruto spoke before anyone else could answer, "Will you leave your village to die? This is your home is it not?" Naruto looked over his right shoulder, his wing held down so they could all see his eye, "This is my home. No matter WHO or WHAT attacks it. I WILL NOT LET IT FALL! Will you?" Kakashi was smiling as was the majority of his friends. Hana was beaming with pride and the rest of the shinobi agreed with his words. "Kakashi-sensei. Hana and myself will take the demons. Leave them to us."
Both Kakashi and Hana seemed a bit surprised at this, "Naruto are you sure?" He asked. Hana was silent but she looked at him questioningly.
"Yes, sensei." Naruto replied.
"Naruto, why do you want me to join you?" Hana asked.
Naruto smirked, "If you wanna be close to me Hana, You gotta learn how to deal with demons. Besides, Do I need a reason to go tearing through enemies with a beautiful woman beside me?" He asked
Hana grinned, "No. But You do need a beautiful woman to keep from getting in over your head!" She said before she jumped off, "Race ya there slowpoke!"
Naruto's smirk turned into a millionwatt grin before he disappeared in a yellow flash. (Not Hiraishin, he's just that fast!) Kakashi gawked for a second before shaking his head, "New orders for Jounin. Head to the frontlines! No one gets into the city, understood?" He said. One chorus of "Hai's" and blurring of ninjas later, Kakashi smiled before shunshining himself to the frontlines.
With Naruto and Hana: Somewhere near the wall of Konoha
Hana had pulled ahead and summoned her companions in their armor. She smirked as she blew through a few weak Oto Chunin. Surprisingly, Suna seemed to have abandoned Oto. The Sandaime had planned on tricking Orochimaru into claiming Gaara as his son. Every Suna shinobi knew that the Kazekage would never do such a thing, after all Gaara was just a weapon. That coupled with the defeat of the Ichibi container had prompted a retreat order from the Suna higher ups. The sand sibs were stuck in the hospital, however, and could not escape.
Hana blasted through a few weak Oto shinobi only to come face to face with the battalion of Drechts and Baubau and 5 commanding Hezrous. She landed and visibly gulped. That was A LOT of enemies. The Haimaru triplets growled at the assembled demons. They just seemed to laugh it off as one of the Hezrous spoke up, "Well well, It seems our commander has seen fit to send us a treat boys!"
Hana growled but a very familiar voice came from the trees to her left. "I'd appreciate it if you stop eyeing my girl, demon. Although that still won't save you." Naruto said cooly just before he and Shiroi, in her armor, landed beside Hana.
Hana smirked, "What took you so long? I almost had to take these guys by myself." She said.
Naruto shrugged, "Well a black cat crossed my path so I..."
Hana groaned, "Don't start taking after Kakaski!" She said playfully.
The demons, however, were not amused. One of the Baubau's launched a fireball at the group of Ninja and their companions. Naruto simply smirked before Shiroi jumped and flipped, smacking the fireball with her tail, and forced the fireball to incinerate the very demon it spawned from. "Now that wasn't very nice." Naruto said. He turned to Hana and bowed mockingly, "Would you like to start this M'lady?"
Hana chuckled cutely and mock cutsied, "It'd be YOUR Honor." Naruto chuckled back and quickly whispered in her ear. Her eyes lit up and she said, "Uh huh, Uh huh" She chuckled again and nodded once before Naruto stepped slightly behind her. She quickly rushed the staggered demonic lines and yelled, "Ryu Daitsuuga!" (Dragon's Great Piercing Fang). Suddenly the 205 demons found themselves on the wrong end of a very powerful assault. Six whirlwinds of destruction were blazing through their ranks. Four were using fire to enhance their attacks while the other two used wind and lightning respectivly.
Now, normally, a human cannot damage a demon higher than the basic footsoldiers. Even the footsoldiers have naturally tough skin and resistances. However, with the Dragon's blessing the armors, and subsequently the claws, of the non dragon fighters, They were fighting at full damage. Needless to say, they were quite effective. Shiroi and Haimaru, who happened to be the most adaptable of the triplets, quickly paired together and started to blaze through the enemies to the right of their masters. Kajimaru and Mokumaru were following their example and flanking their master on the left. Naruto and Hana quickly bulldozed their way to the middle of the demons and started ripping through the little ones like toilet paper. While they may have been many, they stood no chance againest a Dragon Sennin and his future mate.
Inside the Barrier: Same Time
Sora was having trouble subdueing his friend. Since that time when Sora had brought Naruto to Valhalla, Minato had steadfastly maintained a friendship with the man who strived to help his son. Minato was certainly faster that Sora, however, Sora was a millenia old. His reflexs and battle instincts far made up the difference. Not to mention that every strike caused some sort of mortal damage. After Minato healed the second strike, Sora was annoyed. When he healed the seventh strike, which happened to be decapitation, Sora was pissed. He hated that his friend was being used like this. Even more so, WHY he had been summoned. He chanced a look at the other two fights whilst Minato reformed, he didn't know how to kill him anyways.
Sarutobi was hard pressed to fight both his old sensei's at once. However, his training the past month had payed off immensly. He was able to get most of his skills back on par with his original skill level. Sadly, his stamina had taken a major hit with age as had his strength and speed. While it wasn't enough to get him killed, against two kage level shinobi it meant bad things. He could barely fend off their attacks long enough to get away let alone, get in an attack of his own. He knew how to destroy them because of the Jutsu being his sensei's creation, but that didn't mean jack shit if he couldn't damage them! Suffice it to say, his battle was far too difficult to win alone.
Anko was fighting with a righteous fury, and it showed. Every attack she launched, from her infamous Sen'eijashu (Hidden Shadow Snake Hands) to her newly aquired Ryu Denka (Dragon Charge) which allowed her to surround herself in her dragon chakra and charge straight through an attack while poisoning any animals that may be nearby, was precise and incredibly powerful. Orochimaru was having second thoughts about throwing her away. He was pushed to the brink of his abilties.
Sora noticed that Minato would be back in about 20 seconds so he decided to help out the old Wyrm. "Kuchiyose: Ryu Matsuta no Jutsu!" (Summoning: Dragon Master Technique) Two puffs of smoke later and before Sora stood a man with dark black hair and deep red eyes. He was muscular and stood about as tall and broad as Sora himself. He wore a full plate battle armor that was obviously old but had many markings and ancient defenses built into it. Next to him was a beautiful woman, she had long pearly white hair. Her eyes were a brilliant shade of onyx black and held a deep wisdom. She wore an elegant white Kimono with Sakura petals falling on it.
"OI! Sora! What you calling us here for?" The man said.
Sora bowed to them. "Sorry Ryuuken-sama, Ryuukaze-sama. I ask that you help out the old Wyrm over there. He is facing two of his old senseis and I do not have time to explain."
The woman, Ryuukaze, nodded and looked to her husband, "Dear." Lightning cracked and an Oni mask appeared behind her. "Do as he says."
Ryuuken was sweating bullets and nodded before responding, "Wh-Whatever you say dear!" He quickly dashed off to block and attack headed for Sarutobi.
Sora chuckled and quickly hugged Ryuukaze, "Thank you."
She chuckled and leveled him with her gaze, "You have taken your duties seriously. Please don't fall again. I don't think the Dragons could stand it."
Sora smiled softly, "Thanks Kaze. Don't worry. I won't let that happen again!" He said pumping his arm in the air like a certain blonde haired shinobi used to do.
She chuckled and curtsied slightly before rushing off to join her husband. Sora quickly returned his attention to the reformed Minato. "Now to deal with you." He said rushing his friend.
With Kakashi and the Jounin
Kakashi and the other Jounin had quickly dispatched the Oto shinobi within the walls. The fighting was heaviest along the west wall because of two snake summons that had broken through. Luckily, Jiraiya had summoned his own toads to counter and destroy them quickly. He took a brief break as the Konoha Ninja pushed the Oto troops back. He turned his attention to the main gate where Naruto and Hana were fighting. It seemed that they were almost through.
Asuma whistled, "Man, they made quick work of those demons huh?" He said. Kurenai was shocked that they had destroyed almost 200 demons in less than half an hour.
Gai smiled and did his Nice Guy Pose and yelled, "YOSH! THEIR FLAMES OF YOUTH BURN BRIGHTLY EVEN AGAINEST SUCH UNYOUTHFUL OPPONENTS!" (Hehe I love writing Gai! He's so funny!)
Kakashi simpled smiled and said, "Hm? You say something Gai?"
Gai scowled, "Curse you and your hip attitude Kakashi!"
Kakashi chuckled and said, "I agree, Asuma. It must have something to do with Naruto's dragon techniques. They are making liberal use of Gatsuuga and Byakurai as well."
Ibiki had joined them and looked over to see Naruto and Hana decimate the last of the peons. "This should be an interesting fight. The Oto shinobi are in full retreat so we can leave them to the others. Should we help them?"
Kakashi shook his head, "Nah. We would only get in his way."
Asuma looked at Kakashi, "Surely he must be getting tired by now? Besides those are upper class demons from what I can see."
Kakashi sighed, "I was informed by the Sandaime about Naruto's training. Part of that training includes how to fight against demons of all kinds. Besides, Human chakra is only, at best, half as effective on demons. Those particular ones, from their obvious stance and build, could probably crush a house with one punch. Naruto has the most experience and its obvious he's been trained to fight them. Let him deal with this."
Ibiki eyed Kakashi for a moment before nodding, "I agree. Anko told me she was leaving with him and informed me that she would be specializing in fighting demons. If anyone can beat them, its that Gaki there." Ibiki motioned to a hidden ANBU and whispered something into his ear before the ANBU shunshinned away.
With Naruto and Hana
True to Kakashi's observation, The last of the drechts and Baubaus were obliterated. While Hana was rather winded, Naruto was barely breathing hard. Still, they were both tired. They had been able to rely on one another and rest for very brief periods of time so as not to push themselves over their limits. However, the constant use of techniques had left them nearly drained of chakra. Luckily, every ninja has a fallback, Taijutsu. Hana and Naruto stood side by side, Hana in her beast stance and Naruto in his swordmaster. The Hezrous were slightly wary of dealing with the, now obvious, Ryu Sennin. They knew what that form meant and how powerful it could be. However, these humans had destroyed their troops. THAT was unforgivable and demanded death... of either side.
The lead Hezrou eyed Naruto. Shiroi and the Haimaru triplets had landed and were flanking their masters on either side. (same pairings as above) Suddenly he let out a battle cry and the 5 sergeants in the demon world charged full force at their foes. The ninken scattered to the sides while Naruto charged and Hana quickly followed Naruto's lead. While most people would consider it suicide to stand in a Hezrou's charge, Naruto was NOT most people, hell he wasn't even most dragons. He quickly slide under the first Hezrou who followed his actions and tried to stop. He quickly realized his mistake when he felt a burning pain tear through his left arm rendering it useless. Hana had taken advantage of his distraction and struck the Hezrou's left arm.
One Hezrou apiece had broken off to deal with the paired ninken. Shiroi and Haimaru were having the most luck. With Shiroi's speed, eerily smiliar to Naruto's own, She was able to lure the Hezrou in and dodge quite easily. She had even dodged and ran up the beasts arm to promptly destroy one of its eyes. Haimaru was the power behind this team. He was easily able to attack the demon's legs and slow down the already bulky demon. They made quick work of this demon and had him beat in under a minute.
Mokumaru and Kajimaru, however, did not have as much luck. While Mokumaru was faster than his siblings, He was not quite fast enough to dodge the aftershocks of the Hezrou's attacks. More than once his dragon armor saved his life, although it didn't do much to remove the pain. Kajimaru flew into a bloodrage after seeing his brother knocked around for so long and promptly tore the demon to shreds with a well placed Tsuuga. He whimpered afterwards at the effect it had on his body and quickly joined his brother in waiting on the sidelines and for medical assistance from their master.
Naruto and Hana were fairing very well. Following their distraction on the original Hezrou, Naruto had been able to slice one of the remaining three in half whilst Hana held off its brethren. The remaining two Hezrou were now very wary of their opponents. It was obvious they were blessed by the dragons and they could easily ignore the demons strengths. The lead Hezrou whispered something to the other that the two humans couldn't hear. Naruto glanced at Hana out of the corner of his eye. He knew she wasn't used to this and she was probably dead tired. His attention returned fully to the demons as they charged once more. Naruto decided to opt for a defensive counter this time and held his ground while Hana stood to his left. At the last moment, the wounded Hezrou brought his left arm to bare and smacked Hana into a nearby tree with enough force to dent it.
Naruto quickly dodged the slipshod attack and watched as Hana sailed through the air. His vision faded to red as he saw her slump to the ground. Now, few things could anger Naruto when he was in Valhalla. Insulting his parents or family was one and calling him weak was another. One man had made a comment about Hana... well he awoke at the end of the day only to be destroyed for the subsequent 20 days afterwards the second he stepped on the field. Naruto took his swordmaster stance and disappeared once again. His body was already pushed to its limits but he didn't care at the moment. He reappeared with his sword dispersing into a swarm of golden light. He didn't even look back as the two demons died from serious amounts of lethal sword strikes.
He slid to a stop next to Hana's body and gently shook her. "Hana-chan? Tenshi-chan? Wake Up." He said shaking her. Naruto hadn't had the time to learn the healing aspects of dragons yet so he was forced to rely on his, limited, medical experiance. He felt for her pulse only to feel it strong although it did feel slightly erratic. He was about to pick her up with a hand on his shoulder stopped him.
Naruto looked up to see a big breasted (thats understating it) woman with two blonde pigtails. (If I gotta explain Tsunade, I'm gonna murder someone) "Relax gaki. I'll take it from here. Go get yourself checked out with Shizune over there." She said pointing to a black haired woman in a kimono.
Naruto nodded hesitantly before sparing a glance at the injured Hana. Shizune quickly rushed over to him and ran a diagnostic Justu. She was surprised to find only slight bruising and some overusage of muscles aside from slight chakra exhaustion. Some Veterinarians were checking over the ninken and one was doing some advanced work on Mokumaru.
Naruto turned to see Hana smiling brightly at him as Tsunade quickly healed the few bruised bones she had. "Damn your lucky girl. If you hadn't had that armor, you would be dead right now!" Tsunade said impressed with the armors protective abilties. She had arrived with the ANBU only to see Hana get flung like she got hit with Tsunade's own legendary super strength. She was lucky all she had was some bruised ribs.
Hana simply smiled brightly and motioned to Naruto, who quickly moved to her side. "Thanks again Taiyo-kun" (Sun) Naruto stared for a second before a smile graced his lips that quickly turned into a megawatt grin. He kissed her and she happily engaged a tongue war, earning a chuckle from the Sannin.
Tsunade shook her head, "Well, your both well enough to not go to the hospital. Take the next day or so to recover however." They nodded and everyone turned to the purple barrier that suddenly fell and the Konoha forces cheered. To them, The invasion was over.
Inside the Barrier: 20 minutes ago
Ryuuken had joined Sarutobi who smiled and thanked him for the help. The two had proceeded to face off againest Sarutobi's old senseis. However, even with Ryuuken's help, Tobirama and Hashirama's teammwork was still impeccable. Every combo that Sarutobi and Ryuuken could devised was quickly defeated and thrown back in their faces.
Sarutobi dodged another water bullet just as Ryuukaze joined the fight. He nodded to her and yelled to his two teammates, "They have tags in the back of their heads. Destroy the tags and the Jutsu will disperse." The two dragons in human form quickly nodded and went to work. Ryuuken, the master of black flames, and Ryuukaze, mistress of the southern winds, were legendary for their combination attacks. Only Pit Fiends and Ryuujin himself had survived their combinations. They quickly motioned to Sarutobi to aim for the tags and started one of their strongest combinations.
"Kurai Karyuu Endan no Jutsu!" (Dark Fire Dragon technique) sounded from Ryuuken whilest Ryuukaze announced, "Minamikaze Burisutaringu no Jutsu!" (Blistering Southern Wind technique). They combined to form a pure black Dragon twice the size of a regular Jutsu with white flames randomly offshooting from the technique. The Kages' eyes widened. Hashirama quickly formed a double layered Mokuton shield and Tobirama yelled out, "Daisuinjinheki no Jutsu!" (Great Water Wall Technique.) A powerfull wall of water rose barely slowing the powerful fire technique before it slammed down into the Mokuton walls.
Sarutobi had quickly moved to the side of his old teachers and watched as the technique did its work. These dragons were obviously as powerful as a kage in their own rights. He saw his chance to destroy the previous kages and took it. He launched his own Karyuu Endan againest them and promptly incinerated their bodies, tags included. He sighed and relaxed against one of the many trees now adorning the rooftop. They had won and the two dragons nodded to one another before shooting off to inform Sora of this win.
With Sora
Sora was thoroughly pissed. No matter what he hit Minato with, He simply reformed! He was through playing around. He stood still and crossed his blade in front of himself, "Bankai, Sora o shihai suru, Ryuujin." He said calmly. (Final release, Rule the skies above, Dragon God) His silver chakra flowed down his arms and into his blades. They changed slightly into two magnificent eastern style scimitars. They shone with silver but had golden lightning bolts arcing across the blades themselves. The gaurds were Dragon heads that seemed to flow into the blade while the hilt was covered in a golden wrapping.
He quickly made some Kage Bunshin who nodded and went on the assault. Minato was hard pressed againest 8 Soras. Unfortunatly he was able to destroy half of them before Ryuuken and Ryuukaze showed up behind the original. "Sora. There's a tag in his head destroy it and the jutsu will end. We helped the old Wyrm finish off his opponents." Ryuukaze said.
Sora nodded, "Thats fine. You are dismissed. Thank you for your assistance." They nodded before disappearing in a cloud of smoke. Sora quickly sent a mental command to his clones. Three continued to attack while one started to run around the battlefield, seemingly at random. One more close was dispersed before Sora looked sadly at his friend. The two left fighting him quickly grabbed him and held him in place. "Sorry Minato. This is the end. Tsuin Soryuha!" (Twin Dragon Strike) He brought his left sword down from its raised position to destroy Minato. Minato quit struggling and quickly Hiraishined away. Sora quickly brought down his right and sent the second stream of concetrated Dragon chakra at him. Minato was surprised to find a clone at the end of his jutsu and was caught unaware as the dragon slammed into his back, obliterating his body.
Sora sighed. He was glad that he had that clone gather all of Minato's Kunais. As he looked up however, he was NOT happy with who was here.
With Anko and Orochimaru
Orochimaru and Anko were evenly matched as they had been throughout all of this fight. Every ability Orochimaru sent at Anko, she quickly and efficiently countered with some type of snake or dragon attack. Anko had trained extensivly with the Shadow Core, and, while she wasn't as strong as her mate, she made up for it by being cunning and semi-unpredictable. She, however, did not have a weapon like Sora and Naruto. Since she was a dragon by mating, she did not have the necessary soul strength to manifest one.
After her initial charge, she quickly turned it into a taijutsu fight with some supporting ninjutsus in the mix. It did not take her long to realize that Orochimaru, while no slouch in taijutsu, only held her back because of his vast ninjutsu knowledge. Still, she could not land a vital or fatal blow. Orochimaru was in the same boat. He could not land a decisive blow on Anko. He was annoyed with Sarutobi and that Ryuujin. First off, Ryuujin could fight the Yondaime. There goes the strongest ally he had. Secondly, He could not hurt his former apprentice and he had a sneaking suspicion that Ryuujin had a hand in that. Thirdly, He summons two humans who proceed to overpower the first two kages, thus enabling Sarutobi to destroy them. Lastly, He pulls some cockamamy attack that obliterates the Yondaime. WHAT. THE. FUCK?
Sora and Sarutobi were racing to aid Anko and Orochimaru was preparing to retreat when a deathly cold voice echoed across the rooftop. "Who the hell dares to take what I have claimed?" The voice said as a horned human/beast thing with a tanto in its mouth appeared behind the, now visible, soul of the Yondaime Hokage. Orochimaru, Anko, and Sarutobi all paled. The ANBU and the Sound Four were sweating in fear at this being. This was the Shinigami, the god of death.
Sora sighed,"Orochimaru did Shini-chan. He used that forbidden summoning of the second Hokage to summon all three of the old Hokages. I had planned on giving his soul to you, but would you like the honors?" Sora asked.
The Shinigami narrowed her eyes at Sora, but then smiled gleefully, "Indeeed this is one of the souls needed for your deal Sora. Besides that I'm going to enjoy taking him to his rightful place." Orochimaru was paling even further (again is that even possible?)
Anko, however, was not happy. "Wait a minute! I don't care who you are, his hide is MINE!" She said angrily. The Shinigami looked at her, then back at Sora, then back at her and proceeded to laugh loudly. Anko's anger seemed to return tenfold, "OI! I WASN'T KIDDING!"
The Shinigami calmed down slightly and wiped a nonexistent tear from her eye. "Sora, You picked a lively one! I have seen his actions, and the causes, againest you Anko Mitrashi. I agree, his 'hide' is yours. I propose that you hold onto him for... O... 3 months. He will have no access to chakra, unable to use the cursed seals around him, and invulnerable, he can still take damage he just can't die. After that time, I will collect him as per our agreement. Does this suit you?" She asked smiling devilishly.
Anko simply smirked back, "I think this is the begining of a BE-E-A-UUUU-TIFUL friendship, Shini-chan." (10 cyber cookies to whoever figures out where I got this from)
The Shingami barked out a laugh, "Definitely his mate. Proposal accepted. He's all yours Ko-chan!" She said, laughing at the end. She reached out her hand and pulled something that looked like a purplish orb from Orochimaru. She smirked and waved goodbye to the humans present and faded from existance along with Minato.(what you didn't think the Shinigami would let Orochimaru summon the dead freely huh?)
Orochimaru started going through handseals but nothing happened. He tried again only with the same result. He started to sweat as he saw Anko approaching him. "Oooooo Oro-sensei!" She said singsongy like. "I'm gonna enjoy carving my abuse out of your HIDE!" She said turning feral at the end and lunging at him.
Sora sighed and grabbed her and said, "Honey? Why don't you take him to your forest? Just come back when your ready." Anko quickly kissed him and grabbed Orochimaru who was screaming in fear because apparently the Shinigami had paralyzed his body so all he could do was piss, shit, and scream. She promptly Shunshinned away and silence reigned. Sora looked to the four around them and spoke out, "If you drop the barrier and promise not to fight us. I promise we will let you leave unharmed, or, should you wish it, join Konoha." They all stared at this man until they saw him look at Sarutobi who simply nodded in agreement. They simultaneously dropped the barrier and were detained by the ANBU. The Invasion of Sand and Sound was over.
Sarutobi and Sora looked out over Konoha and Sora smiled seeing Naruto and Hana being treated amidst the demons. Sarutobi smiled as well and said, "They make a good couple. I'm glad she looks out for him."
Sora chuckled, "Me too, Wyrm. Although I have a feeling that they maybe more than just Girlfriend and Boyfriend soon." He said smiling.
Sarutobi looked at Sora a little surprised, "They have only been together for a month or so. Isn't that a little fast?"
Sora shook his head, "Dragons bond with their mates at their first meeting Wyrm. Aside from that, they have known each other for years now. The only reason they weren't together before was because of your council." He said.
Sarutobi sighed, "As long as they are safe. I most certainly don't need great-grandkids running around with Naruto's stamina!" He said actually slightly afraid.
Sora chuckled and replied, "You better start threatening Tsume then. She wants grandpups soon and I wouldn't put it past her to push them into Hana's room and not let them out for a few days."
Sarutobi paled and said, "I'll be in the office. I gotta pass a new law forbidding Naruto from sexual relations." This prompted a stare between the two until the busted out laughing. "In any case, I want you and Naruto in the office tomorrow morning, 9 AM sharp. It concerns Naruto's heritage and parents." Sora nodded and they both disappeared to their respective jobs.
With Naruto and Hana
After their dismissal from Tsunade, The two lovers decided to go to the Inuzuka compound. They arrived just as the majority of the clan returned. Silently, everyone filed inside and went to their respective houses. An hour of silence amongst the compound for the dead was spent. Once it was over however, the ninken and Inuzuka's started to gather in the yard. Every family brought pieces of meat or food to add to the family wide bar-b-que.
Sora arrived and smiled seeing Hana clinging to Naruto's arm and Naruto happily chatting with a few of the other ninja's about a few of his abilties. Surprisingly, Sora noticed Shiroi brush her tail over Akamaru's nose and head off to a quieter corner of the celebration and lay down with both of them curled next to one another.
Naruto looked up to see Sora and waved with his free hand, "Aniki! Over here."
Sora chuckled and sat down next to him. "I see you have an ornament there Naruto." Sora said teasing his otouto.
Naruto and Hana blushed slightly but Hana was the one to respond. "He's my plushy. I'll let go when he stops breathing." She said playfully.
Naruto just smirked. "Fine by me, besides I love having Tenshi-chan on my arm. Makes it easy to do... this!" He said before he quickly grabbed her and spun her onto his lap before making out with her. There were catcalls and whistling even a "Take it to Hana's room and don't come out!" from Tsume. Hana promptly pulled back and blushed crimson before screeching, "MOM!" The family simply laughed and went back to eating. Apparently, they had all accepted Naruto. If they weren't nice to him, at least they were apathetic.
Sora chuckled and turned to Naruto, "Wyrm wants us in the Office tomorrow morning at 9. It concerns something about your parents."
Naruto nodded and looked at Hana, "You wanna join us Tenshi-chan?"
Hana was a little surprised and asked, "You want me to be there Taiyo-kun?"
Naruto nodded furiously, "Of course! Your gonna find out anyway. If you wanna be there, your more than welcome to come."
Hana smiled and kissed him, "Sure I'll be there. But..." She brought her legs around to straddle him and whispered into his ear, "I'm staying at your house tonight."
Naruto blushed crimson and nodded before he waved to the Inuzukas. "Sorrygottagobye!" The couple promptly disappeared in a Shunshin. The Inuzukas roared with laughter and Tsume said, "Thats my girl!" Sora chuckled and headed to Anko's house. Didn't want to interupt Naruto and Hana anyways.
Naruto's House. (Namikaze Estates)
When they reappeared in front of the estates, Hana took in the sight. It wasn't large, more like a large house. It had a ground floor with a large living room, kitchen, and private onsen. The second floor had 4 rooms and the master bedroom. The top floor however, was a large dojo with seals to reinforce the walls againest attacks. They had a basement which was the Namikaze Jutsu Vault and library.
She smiled seeing Naruto standing in the doorway and patted a scroll she brought with her. She wasn't going to jump him tonight. However, she had no intention of waiting much longer. Naruto smiled at her and motioned for her to come in. "Listen why don't we soak in the onsen then hit the sack? I'm sure your tired as it is." Naruto said.
Hana smirked, she had brought a bathing suit but Naruto didn't know that. "I didn't know you were so eager to get me naked Taiyo-kun. You sure you haven't become a pervert since you left?" She said teasingly.
Naruto frowned, "I meant nothing of the sort! I-I ... Your mean." He said catching on to her teasing and causing her to bust out laughing.
She chuckled and replied, "Yes that's fine Naruto-kun. I'll join you in a minute K?" Naruto nodded and headed to the master bedroom. He emerged a minute later in his own swim trunks and headed downstairs. Hana smirked and snuck into his room. She noticed the dresser he took and the free one on the opposite wall. She quickly unsealed and put up many of her more comfortable sets of her clothing. She slipped on her bikini and headed downstairs.
Naruto turned as he heard the door open, "Hana. What took you so long? I..." His voice trailed off as he saw Hana in nothing but her bikini. Her breasts seemed to have grown slightly since four months ago. They were almost a D cup and were straining the slightly old bikini top. Her hair flowed around her face framing it perfectly and she brought her hand up to hide her smirk before chuckling into it that made Naruto think 'SO CUTE!' Hana smirked seeing that his eyes never left her upper body.
"See something you like Taiyo?" She asked only slightly teasing.
Naruto blushed at being caught but responded, "Only if I'm allowed to look Tenshi."
Hana smiled at his response, at least he asked permission. "Of course. I wouldn't have walked in here if you couldn't." She said slipping into the hot springs and relaxing thoroughly under the hot water. Naruto smiled but was still blushing slightly as he got out of the water. She eyed him for a minute before he sat down behind her and started to massage her shoulders and neck. She moaned slightly and Naruto attacked the kinks in her neck. She relaxed and said, "Your pretty good at this. You had expereince before?"
Naruto shook his head, "Nah. I just keep gently neading the muscles until they relax. My mom seemed to like it."
Hana smiled and motioned for the soap. She quickly cleaned herelf and let Naruto wash her back. They exited the onsen and went into the master bedroom. Naruto grabbed some clothes and went into the bathroom there. Hana smirked and opened her drawer. She pulled out a silky black lace two piece lingerie. She quickly dryed off and slipped the two piece on before laying on the bed. She propped herself up on her side and crossed her legs so he would barely be able to see her nether regions, although he WOULD get an eyefull of her legs.
Naruto stepped out of the bathroom, not expecting a hot Hana Inuzuka to be occupying his bed. He froze and his eyes started at her feet. Her body wasn't free of scars but the few she did have, did nothing to take away from her beauty. His eyes travelled up her slender well-toned legs to the dark area where they connected and he gulped. Up the thin stomach to her impressive bust and onto her beautfiul face that held a sexy smirk.
"While I love seeing you appreciate what I've got..." Hana said snapping Naruto out of his gaze, "I'm rather tired and I want my plushy!" she said slightly childish before putting a finger to her mouth. Naruto blushed crimson and nodded dumbly before joining her. He quickly laid down and turned so his back was pressed againest her body and she wrapped her arm around his waist and neck. "Night Taiyo-kun." Hana said before kissing him on the cheek and snuggling under the blankets with him.
Naruto's smile threatened to split his face when he repsonded with a quiet, "Night Tenshi-chan." Before he snuggled down and fell asleep.
