Chapter 8: Chapter 8: "The D-D-Devil"  

In the Land of Rain when the world has come to a halt to all its conspiracies and war. another one seems to be taking place here at this very moment 

Danzo and his men just ended his meeting with Hanzo regarding the new upcoming force and were camping someplace remote in the land of rain.

Danzo sitting in the center surrounded by the Elite Root squad 

One Root shinobi updating about the happenings in the shinobi world to Danzo

Danzo: It seems we need to hurry and finish the job here and move back to our land as soon as possible, how are the things with Hazno when is he luring out Akatsuki?

Root Anbu: he's still negotiating with them and trying to set up a meeting point

Danzo grunts: Tell him to speed up, I need to head back to the village. I cannot waste too much time here especially when I don't know where the land of fire may end up, tell him he has a maximum of 3-4 days to round this up otherwise, I am going back.

Root Anbu: Yes, Danzo-Sama

with a poof, he vanishes.

Danzo: The rest of you scout the perimeter of the island and find the best place for the vantage point.

Root: Danzo-sama our scout has already identified a place for the best vantage point, Should we leave for it?

Danzo stares at the root with a half-open eye stands up and asks him to lead the way

whoosh...

some distance away from the coast they all stop 

Root: there donzo-sama that house (points in the distance at a lone house in the middle of nowhere) 

Danzo inspects the surroundings and agrees nodding this seems to be the best spot, what about the house is it empty

Root: Currently a father and son seem to be living there

Danzo turns to root and says

Danzo: You know what to do

Anbu: Yes, Danzo-Sama.

Meanwhile at the house Currently a 10 year old kid seems to be alone preparing wood for his father trying his best to help out his father in his own way, till he came back from nearby forest by collecting food.

he's happily humming some local tune with wobbly steps carrying weight several time more that his size on his shoulder and moving it inside house.

at this moment sound of distant footsteps can be heard a boy face brightens thinking his old man is back hurriedly drops the weight off his shoulder and rushes out with a big smile

Boy: Welcome back Fath.....

and pauses mid way noticing the two strange men with a scary mask coming his way instead of his old man

his face from a bright smile turns pale in seconds remembering the legend about ninjas and how his father warns him to not turn into a ninja if do runs away.

the boy swiftly turns around in the direction of the forest and starts running he may have taken just a few steps when two more ninjas with scary masks surround him from the forest direction. 

boy trembling looks around trying to find a way out but finds himself being surrounded from front and back on both sides

his face ashen and wet from continuous tears dropping from his eyes due to this unknown fear he starts shouting for his father but to no avail

boy turns to shinobi: p-p-please l-let me go-o

but in response to his plea he feels a sword piercing his back and coming out from the front, he slowly looks downwards and finds the sword coming out of his chest unable to believe that his life is coming to an end tries to call out to his father name

but he stops breathing and falls face-forward into the mud

at this moment root felt a rustle in the branches and a man came out sweating carrying a basket of fruits and meat on his shoulder just then he stopped and looked at the surrounding ninjas looking at him his face turned pale but before he could make sense of what was happening he saw one ninja stepping on a little boy and taking out the sword from his corpse

his mind stops working everything goes blank and before he can even react to the death of his son he feels a sharp pain in his chest he slowly looks down he finds a kunai stabbed at the centre of his chest and he starts losing his strength and basket from his hand falls down scattering fruits and meat on the ground.

he kneels and lies down face-front feeling the life slipping away from his body.

but at this moment an unknown amount of anger consuming him which is keeping his soul attached to his body otherwise he too would have died

Man (thinks internally): My son... I am sorry... I couldn't protect you (then laments at his life) what wrong did I this to the world to deserve this?? I Couldn't even protect my family back then my wife now my son... THESE DAMNABLE NINJAAASSS. 

PLEASE GOD JUST GIVE ME STRENGTH TO AVENGE MY SON AT LEAST..

I don't care if I turn into to devil just give me strength, please....

at this moment he feels a strange calling to his soul and he turns his head slightly to his left he finds that among the fruits he brought back one of the fruit starts to change shape and it turns purple and weird gas seems to be floating around it.

he grabs it slowly puts that fruit in his mouth and swallows it whole. and he can swear it is the worst-tasting thing he put in his mouth in his entire life.

Meanwhile, Danzo arrives at the scene nods to his root members and orders them to clear up these corpses 

 Acknowledging his order one moves towards the boy to pick him up and the other moves towards the man lying face-front in the ground beside bushes.

Danzo then starts moving towards the house but 

KARAKUNI 

everyone turns towards the shout and finds a root member kneeling beside the man holding his neck as if struggling to breathe.

Danzo turns to the rest of his Root members and gives the order: GO

everyone immediately takes the position to surround the man 

two rushes from both sides trying to pincer him with the sword the one in the back successfully manages to pierce him and the one in front after reaching a certain range falls right next to the previous root.

the one in his back sticking the sword through his back feels something is not right but before he can move back 

GAS ROBE

and gas cover three of them for a moment and in the blink of an eye all three drop dead.

the gas withdrew and the figure of a man standing in between the gas started emerging

Danzo unfazed by the death of his men squints at the man standing, who at this moment happens to be looking back at himself with uncontrollable blood lust, his eyes showing rage but his face surprisingly calm a stark contrast on him what you can see

Danzo: Who are you?

The man rushes towards Donzo and shouts: the man whose son you fuckers killed...

A root jumps in front of Donzo and casts an Earth-style: Swamp of the Underworld

the land beneath the man starts turning muddy but the man unfazed turns his feet into gaseous form and starts floating.

everyone was surprised at the fact that man could fly as previously they hadn't seen anything like it. but their hand signs do not stop for a moment and they cast Wind-style: Wind Blade

A sharp blade shot towards the man divides him into two but before the people could sigh in relief his body came together again 

Man Shouts: GAS ROBE

and again, his body expands and covers Root Shiobi nearby and as soon as they come into contact with the gas they drop dead

Danzo realizes finally what this trick is about and commands his remaining three subordinates

Danzo: Be careful that guy's body is in gas form just like The Hōzuki clan who can do Hydrification Technique he can somehow turn himself into gas and if I am not wrong he can control air to hence those two from the first time clutches their throat and gasps for air he can deprive them of air in a certain range and that robe of his deadly poisonous hence people dying as soon as they came in contact.

Danzo then again stares at that with interest in his eyes and ask: which clan are you from, I haven't come across someone as interesting as you in my life.

the man ignores Donzo's question and stares down at him from sky

Donzo: No answer huh?? don't worry once i catch you i'll get all your secrets

then with a slight grin, he continues: I now know about your gaseous body and just like Hydrification has weakness of thunder I am willing to bet you too must have an elemental weakness

the man finally shows some emotion but that of anger and rushes towards Danzo again shouting: You talk to much just drop dead.

Danzo: Finally couldn't hold on huh...?

he puts his hands together and casts a Fire-style: fireball jutsu..


Chapter 9: Chapter 9: "The First New Island"

Danzo's smirk widened as he unleashed his Fireball Jutsu, confident that he had discovered the man's elemental weakness. To confirm his suspicion, the man swiftly dodged the incoming fireball, finally revealing a little about his ability.

Danzo: "Finally dodging? Seems like fire is your weakness!?!"

The man, gritting his teeth in frustration, felt a surge of memories flooding back—a recollection of another technique related to the newfound ability he had acquired. His face contorted as a realization struck him.

Man (shouting): "Nenshokei: Miok Gas!"

A new wave of gas began accumulating, surrounding both Danzo and his remaining Root shinobi. Unfamiliar with this technique, Danzo ordered his team to fall back and utilize Fire-style jutsu. Two of the Root members began weaving hand signs for their jutsu, preparing to counter the impending threat. However, as soon as they released their techniques, an unimaginable explosion rocked the area, consuming all the shinobi caught within it.

Witnessing the devastating outcome, the man, standing at a distance, saw the anger in his eyes subside slightly. Before he could exhale a sigh of relief, he sensed two fireballs hurtling toward him, enveloping him in a fiery embrace.

BOOM

Smoke fills the battlefield and no heads from tail can be distinguished at this moment

after the smoke subsides on both sides of the explosion

we could see two char bodies lying motionlessly making them root shinobi who unleashed their first fireball jutsu and some distance from them stood Danzo and his last Root member 

at this moment anger is visible on Danzo's gloomy face 

he seems to be staring at the distant smoke subsiding and making out the figure of a man kneeling on the ground with blood leaking from the corner of his lips

man coughs up a little blood and shakily stands up again

Again, the man got angry at his powerlessness but before he could lament this fact, a strange energy washed over him again and he felt his physique improving yet again the first time was when he ate that fruit, and now again 

and his shaky body becomes stable again 

he feels amazed over this body's tenacity, he never knew his body was capable of withstanding this highly strenuous battle against a ninja 

he once again firms his resolve to avenge his son and looks towards the perpetrator.

at the same time, Danzo finally had enough of it seals his hand and casts a summoning jutsu and summons Baku

Poof

with smoke a gigantic elephantine chimera appears, It is predominantly dark orange in color except for its trunk, legs, and the markings around its eyes. Its feet are striped — reminiscent of those of a tiger and it also has huge tusks, what looks like a beard, as well as long, sharp claws. It has bandages wrapped around its head and plated armor at the base of its trunk. 

his figure so tall the man feels an ant in front of it and fear starts to creep in but for some unknown reason his brain once again washes over with energy and he feels that the gigantic elephantine chimera doesn't seem too big it's as if I have seen taller figure then this animal. but he's sure he hasn't but he just brushed it off at this moment

Baku looks around spots the tiny figure in front of it then turns to Danzo in an unpleasant mood 

Baku: Why did you summon me? Don't tell me this guy is troubling you so much that you couldn't resist.

Danzo: Don't underestimate that guy, He has killed 7 Root Shinobis with himself

Baku finally gains interest in his opponent and squint towards the tiny figure in front of it and opens his mouth to start sucking it in

the man sees this and smiles and turns into purple gas and flows in his mouth

seeing this 

Danzo shouted in realization: No Baku that guy is a gas and a lethal gas don't suck him in!!

but it was too late man flew straight in his mouth and Baku closed it

and turns to Danzo in Disdain you call me for this weak.... but before he can continue his expression turns twisted and his face becomes purple and he falls with a 

BOOM

Danzo Shouts: Bakuuuu...

but instead of Baku answering a gas emerges from his trunk with a hideous face

and turn towards the last remaining root shinobi and shouts

GASTANET

and another explosion occurs enveloping the last Root.

seeing this Danzo's face turns even ugly than before and before he can do something another earth tremor occurs just like in the morning but with more intensity both parties are stupefied at this sudden occurrence and before the horror of their very eyes another island pops up in distant see it the speed of emerging from water so fast that you can say that if anyone blinks at the moment the island would have stood there like it was their standing there before time immemorial 

Danzo swiftly regains his bearing from shock casts a jutsu and runs towards the distance island to take cover from this abomination of gas.

meanwhile, man sees Danzo running over the sea to the distant island and tries to chase after him but just as his feet touch the water of the sea he feels an incredible amount of weakness wash over him and he limps on the coast and he pulls his feet back up on land and regains his composure finally realizing beside the element of fire the seawater also seems to be his weakness man looks at distant Danzo almost reaching the land and again want to turn into gas and float over to that island but he the strain of battle finally catches up to him and he collapses on the ground.

Giving one last look at the distant island where his enemy seems to have vanished he picks himself up and walks slowly toward the body of his son

Reaching beside his kid, looking at the terror-stricken face son before death he collapses in grieve and kneels and takes his son in his lap crying 

and keeps repeating: I am Sorry, I am Sorry 

he kept weeping beside his son trying to comfort his dead kid or himself only he knew, and finally picked up his son's body to bury him.

Meanwhile 

Danzo finally escapes from that abomination of gas and reaches this new island shore...
