Chapter 12: Chapter 12: This is Only the Beginning
*Jaden Pov*
'Well at this rate I'm going to die from my injuries, well that's unless I have a cell regeneration property from my clan. '
'Based on my knowledge of Jugo I think he has something similar to that, but my clan is distant cousins from his. '
'Not to mention I don't remember mother injuring me to the point I could test my bodies healing properties. '
"AHAHAhhaha," Jaden begins to laugh at himself. ' I'm really going to die within a couple days of my rebirth how pathetic. '
"Fuck it I won!" Jaden shouts out as loud as his lungs can allow.
*Swish* ~ *Swish* ~ *Swish*
Jaden raises an eyebrow as he notices the company he attracted. 'Huh I didn't expect to see so many main characters so fast into my journey. Well, it is the pointless 2nd great shinobi war. The one they got those insulting names that turned into a Legendary status that become their ticket to practically doing whatever they wanted. The PR team from the Leaf village, that being Hiruzen is truly unmatched. ' Jaden thinks Hiruzen's manipulation skills are truly unmatched in this world.
'I wonder what they want with me?' Jaden can't help but curiously stare at them.
*Sanin Pov*
The three future Sanin walk over to the laughing boy. "Children in war truly are pitiful things, don't worry I'll end your life here." Orochimaru says without any inflection in his voice.
"Orochimaru wait!" Jiraiya manages to stop his impassive teammate by quickly grabbing his shoulder.
"The boy's mental is already broken, due to the war anyways, we should just put him out his misery and be done with it. Not to mention he could grow up to be a nuisance in the future." Orochimaru replies with, not even looking at Jiraiya as he continues to look at the child.
"And the girl has a case of soldier shell shock where she can't move past the trauma of the battle." Orochimaru says while turning over to look at the second child, doing so with his arms crossed. "She's already loss the will to fight as well, not to mention her headband. Her being an Iwagakure shinobi is enough reason." With Orochimaru licking his lips, knowing what her fate will be.
'That poor kid.' This being the collected thoughts of the two normal Sanin, Jiraiya and Tsunade, taking pity on the girl who looks broken.
"Orochimaru is right its best we take mercy on them now, so they don't suffer anymore." Tsunade grips her knuckles tightly as she's prepared to kill these children, as what awaits them could be worse than death.
*Jaden pov*
Jaden's face immediately shifts. 'Well fuck that's not what I expected, well I thought Konoha would be aggressive. Invading a country tends to do that to you. But for the legendary Sanin to come end my life in person is really such an honor. Not. But at least I can boast my clout in heaven. Telling grand stories about how it took 3 Kage level forces of nature to take me down. I wonder if sex is possible in heaven, I'm sure you can't date angels. But this is actually good for me as I have a walking Med Kit right in front of me.'
Orochimaru walks towards me, but my words make him halt. "Hey blonde lady! Come heal me I'm dying over here! I yell out weakly as best as I can, given my condition.
"Huh why would I do that?" Tsunade being visibly taken aback by the request, as she's an enemy ninja invading the country.
"Isn't it kind of implied in the name medical ninja use medicine to heal people, not to mention here I am a dying kid in front of you." Jaden replies with.
"Can't you give me medical treatment and go back to whatever you ninja's do, like bombing countries." Jaden casually mentions mockingly as if he's talking about the weather.
Tsunade hesitantly wants to heal this kid because she imagines her little brother Nawaki. 'He's even younger than Nawaki.'
"Shall I Kill the kid?" Orochimaru isn't interested in the banter and would rather go home to have some free time before their next mission.
"No need he'll bleed out in a minute." Tsunade uses her hand to block Orochimaru as she stares at the child.
"Fine I didn't think it come to this but let's make a deal." Jaden says as if it truly pains him for having to barter for his life.
"Deal?" Jiraiya repeats out of confusion while the others remained silent but thought the same thing.
"Yes, a deal." Jaden shakes his head in confirmation. "I'm sure you Konohagakure ninjas would want to take this back to your leader."
"I sell you information you heal me and escort me to safety. Deal?"
Orochimaru walks forward with a smile on his face grabbing my hand. "I guess you don't know how negotiations work. Don't worry I'll properly educate you, it's only when sides are at equal level can a meeting be called negotiations. You can't believe that you're on equal footing boy, what this is called is I torture you, breaking all the remaining body parts on your body until you tell me what I want."
This time Orochimaru was too fast for Tsunade or Jiraiya to react. "1! " He says while breaking one of my fingers. But no response comes out. Shocking the three of them by the unexpected development.
"HAHAHAH! " I laugh like a mad man, as I think I figured it out.
'My pain receptors have been momentary turned almost off. Due to the extreme work out I got, and not to mention my extreme fits of laughing, I turned them off.'
'Pain receptors are essentially "turned off" when the body releases natural pain-blocking chemicals like endorphins, which bind to receptors in the nervous system and inhibit the transmission of pain signals to the brain; this can happen naturally in response to pain or can be triggered by activities like exercise or certain medications that stimulate the body's opioid system.' Making me really want to thank that Fat Iwa boy for all the near death punches he landed.
"Now are we going to keep doing this all day or will you just heal me, and we can go our separate ways." I mockingly tease them.
Hearing this the three of them snap out of it as Jiraiya puts his hand on Orochimaru's shoulder, signaling him to stop. The snake man relents, and he calls Tsunade.
"Alright kid start talking, what do you know?" As Tsunade starts healing me. With it feeling hard to explain but I assume it feels great.
"I'm sure you three had some shinobi mentioned somewhere west of the hidden rain village. And might have noticed a large amount of Iwa and Ame shinobi fighting to the east. The three rock idiots over there completed a high classified intelligence mission believe it or not."
"And if they got back to their camp, it may not end the war right away like they believed but could have escalated the conflict towards Iwa, making things much more difficult for the hidden leaf."
"So, you should thank me for my hard work." I speak.
"Hey, hurry up and get to the point or I'll stop healing you here," Tsunade wanting to keep the conversation on topic.
"Hai! Hai!" I say with a mock salute in my mind.
"Hn." "Okay so Iwa decided to pull a hail Mary in this war as Ame was making it difficult to invade the land of Fire, so they decided to risk 30 percent of their next generation with the suicide mission to infiltrate Ame and find Hanzo's summon being the salamander. The plan was to blackmail Hanzo into joining a military alliance with them, where they would use the Ame shinobi as cannon fodder and launch an all-out war with Konoha. And given the position sand is at with you it would be a 3v1. But if it became a sure thing, you could bet Kumo and Kiri will be jumping in. Not to mention the opportunistic nation of Kusa joining since its clear they'd be on the winning side. Making it a 6v1 against Konoha."
With each minute Jaden speaks the more shocked the reaction of the young shinobi are, hearing the information they stumbled upon by chance. If they would have killed this child then they might have losted this war. As the Iwa Kunoichi might be out of commission but surely an Iwa scout team would check to see if any one of their shinobi's was in range. If rescued she could spell the continuation and completion of the 2nd great shinobi war. with Konoha's defeat.
Even Orochimaru who remained impassive and believed his ideology is correct, has to question his actions.
"Your information will need to be verified once we make it back the base. But we'll leave that aside from now. Who are you?" Orochimaru tone becomes cold, and his eyes harden, losing his blank gaze.
"Ah my name, its Onikuma Jaden."
"Onikuma is that a clan name?" Orochimaru can't help but ask, having never heard of the name before.
"This isn't an interrogation just a negotiation of information. Like would you be willing to tell me stuff about your village and your people." Jaden replies without thinking much.
"He's right that's enough." Jiraiya reprimands his teammate before turning to me. "Thank you Onikuma-chan."
"Still why is a kid out during a warzone and how'd you manage to beat Iwa shinobi. Even if their Genin, that's still a ninja." Tsunade says while fixing my ribs.
I don't see the harm in responding to the charming Tsunade. "Well, I was making my way to the Land of Birds, but I was unlucky and was in the path of Rock Ninjas."
"That doesn't answer how you beat them. We saw that transformation you performed." "What was that?" This comment coming from a curious Orochimaru.
"Sigh, fine it won't hurt." Jaden doesn't care about hiding his abilities.
