Chapter 2
CJ Courier Route
The entire group of bandits were instantly killed in less than a minute, poisoned by the venomous bite of an Asp belonging to Anko Mitarashi. She yawned out of boredom as she wasted very little energy commanding her slithery friend and starts massaging her neck.
"Never send NPCs to do a Gamer's job" said Anko before she turns to Naruto and leers at him. "Hmm, he doesn't look much but at job's a job."
Naruto and Ayame stood still in shock and surprise
"*whistle* stubborn bastards, those Bandits." Said a woman's voice coming from the shadows, the Asp slithers towards it and climbs up a bare slender leg and wraps around the woman's waist like a sash. "But I managed to get here on time before things get too ugly."
"And who are you?" said Naruto as the woman completely reveal herself.
"Names Anko Mitarashi, the Snake Bitch of Konoha" said Anko smirking proudly while a snake pops its head out from her collar.
That caused Naruto to be on guard. "I take it you are a gamer then?"
"Sort of, I am what you call a player." Said Anko
"What's a Player?" asked Naruto
"More importantly," Ayame interrupted "What is a member of the Will of Fire doing here killing one of their own?" Ayame asked on guard with a butcher knife out.
"Wait, she's a member of the Will of Fire?" said Naruto to Ayame
"Hai, and a well-known one too" said Ayame with her butcher knife still out and pointing at Anko. "The Snake Bitch, she's been in the CJ's wanted list ever since she was created by that creep Orochimaru."
"*scoff* don't remind me" said Anko crossing her arms and snarling at the fact. "Look, I rather get this done with and we'll be on our happy ways."
"What do you mean?" said Naruto
"Apparently, I am assigned by the great goddess Yami, basically trying to pay off my bar tab from the Gates of Hell, to assist you on your quest in reconnaissance and retrieval of the confiscated food." Said Anko "Also, I might get my hand on some Dango because I am FUCKING STARVING!"
"Wait, Yami send you to help us?" said Ayame in disbelief, she knows that the Will of Game only worship Kami.
"Not really, the quest was given to me by Rodin in exchange for the liquidation of my tab." Said Anko
"So, an act of desperation" said Naruto finding this rather amusing to hear that Anko's reason of betrayal is to pay off a bar tab by helping him and Ayame.
"DO you have any idea how hard it is to get a good drink in Konoha now?" said Anko "Let alone a place to get some sweet Dango? Don't answer that, I was being rhetorical. Anyway, by helping myself, I help you."
"No thanks" said Ayame until Naruto walk toward Anko, causing the Musume Cook to startle in shock. 'Naruto-kun?'
"We are going to let her join our party, and considering that the halflings are working with the Censored Justice, which is really curious since Halflings are not know for forming an alliance with humans. But note this, if you betray us after this incident you will end up with another debt by being my personal toy. So, consider this your only warning." Which at that Naruto sends a party invite and what Naruto purposely didn't add is that once Anko joins his part she can never betray him and will also think that it is a good idea to join him and she is basically bound to him unless he kicks her out of the party.
"Fine let's just get this over with." Anko said as she accepted the invite, and with that she is Naruto's.
Snake Bitch Joins the Party
Ayame saw this in her messenger board and sighed with worry, hoping Naruto knows what he is doing.
"Right then, let's go" Said Naruto while he secretly used Observe on his new ally.
Snake Bitch Origins #1: PLAY 0:00/1:20
Snake Bitch Origins #2: Unlocked
Snake Bitch Origins #3: Unlocked
What Naruto got is a video clip, curious about it he pressed play and his vision suddenly flashes in white.
Snake Bitch Origins #1
The area changes from the CJ courier route to a dark laboratory with sickly green lighting coming from a tall glass tank with a young teenage girl with purple hair floating in green fluid and hooked up with tubes specifically in various points on her back and arms and wearing a breathing nozzle up her nose and connected to a tank of oxygen. Watching the tank is a tall figure in a lab coat with pale skin and long raven hair, his yellow serpentine eyes fixed into the figure while smirking at her.
"Gamers are such wonderful beings, shame I wasn't blessed with their gifts. But at least I learned enough about them to conduct this experiment, many test subjects are in progress, but I hope you would bring great results for me, my student."
Suddenly the teenager opened her now serpentine eyes and opens her mouth as she hisses like a snake, flicking her forked tongue and showing off her sharp fangs.
End Video
As the video ends, Naruto was startled at first when Anko responded with.
"Scare ya, did it?" said Anko smirking as she knew that Naruto was observing her behind her back. "Too bad you won't get to know the rest."
"What are you?" said Naruto
"You saw for yourself, that is how I became a Player." Said Anko "and also how I became the Snake Bitch."
"You still didn't answer my other question" said Naruto "What is a Player."
"Look, you want to waste time asking questions, or do you want to finish this quest once and for all?" said Anko
Naruto sighed as she made a good point, he puts that question on hold for now, Ayame frowns at Anko while she resumes driving the cart. She doesn't trust the Will of Fire much as she hates the Censored Justice. But as the old saying goes: keep your friends close, but your enemies closer.
Land of Hills: Border gates
Ayame finally reached the nation known as the Land of Hills, it is a nation for the Halflings to thrive ever since their former home was destroyed and uninhabitable to live long ago, so they moved on and settled in the hills and occupied it as their own nation with the Land of Fire. Normally this would have considered as an invasion but through negotiations with the Fire Daimyo, the area is given since no one lives there and Hobbits are mostly one with nature.
But with the shinobi wars, the perimeter of the nation surrounded by a barrier wall and the only way in the Land of Hills is through the gates that are guarded by assigned Halfling soldiers and must have permission from the Fire Daimyo to enter their home.
"Halt!" said the guard until suddenly gets a kunai on the head and a hoard of minions surrounds the cart.
"No need for stealth, Ayame" said Naruto as he jumps down from the trees and summons the Legendary Baka Bros. "We reached our destination and it's time to take what's rightfully ours. Bakas, break the gate open"
"Got it boss" said Raijin
"Heh, heh, yeah!" said Fūjin as he and Raijin charges at the gate and effectively broke the gate. "Piece of cake"
"Mmm cake" said Raijin rubbing his tummy while eyeing the cart. "Er boss, can we…"
"No, but I'm sure there are snacks in the villages" said Naruto
"Yatta!" exclaims the Legendary Baka Bros as they charges in for the offensive.
"Okay, the first objective is done" said Naruto before turning to Ayame "Ayame, I need you to take that cart to the drop out point and then return to us."
Ayame is reluctant to leave Naruto alone, especially alone with Anko as she doesn't trust her.
"A-Are you sure?" said Ayame with concern
"I see you're worried, but I promise you that I will be fine. I had my share with quests on my own with recent allies." Said Naruto smiling at Ayame under his mask. "Now please go, before those half-pints get wise to our attack."
"Right" said Ayame as she starts riding off with the contraband.
Ayame temporally left the party
"All right, let's go" said Naruto as he and Anko walk through the gate.
"Hai" said Anko as she joins in with Naruto
Land of Hills: Mellowshire
The rest of the contraband were taken to an industrial village called Mellowshire, where it can be unloaded, organised and arranged in each of their own warehouses. Mellowshire is a labyrinth of factories, mills and warehouses. However, despite the industrial purpose of the village, it doesn't lack any beautiful nature in the hilly nation.
"This has got to be the most…boring place I have ever seen." Said Naruto as he saw the the industrial village. "I'm no expert in industry but shouldn't the area be smoky and fogged up by pollution?"
"Hai, I've been in many industrial places and I've never seen this so pathetic." Said Anko
The CJ couriers that were already here are helping with the organisation. The Dry products will be stored in the warm warehouses, the canned produce is at warehouses with the ideal temperature and the cold and fresh produce is stored in the cold warehouses. And out of all the carts, there must be about nearly a dozen to load all of Konoha's supply of contraband.

Naruto reached the first and nearest Warehouse, which the CJ courier and the halflings just finished storing the designated produce in their ideal storage.
"Alright, that is all the Scrab Cakes, Paramite Pies, Meech Munchies (thought they discontinued them due to the Meech extinction) and the rest of the baked meat products from that foul slaughter house in the Odd Realm." Said Halfling worker #1 going through the list. "Damn, do they just find and grind those creatures they find and make a profit on them?"
"What do you expect, they're nothing but stinking capitalists" said the Halfling worker #2 "They would even turn their own workers into food to get their non-existent palms greased further. Okay, what's next…BBQ Pork, Burgers, Ribs…by Kami is these CJ people vegetarians of something?"
"No, they're only banning beef and pork for some strange reason." Said Halfling worker #1 "Ok what's next?"
"Ok, let's see…Bacon, Sausages, Pulled Pork. Chilli Dogs, Dinosaur meat?" said Halfling worker #2 "What the hell did they get this stuff?"
"We don't ask, we just claim them in exchange for our allegiance to them." Said halfling worker #1 "Come on, that's all the meat products done, let's check on the drinks next."
"Got it" said halfling worker #2
The 2 workers leave the perimeter, which is guarded by appointed CJ Sentinels on their towers, knights and a giant bulky humanoid known as Gargantuans. Naruto is pleased that he stole their Codex which contains some of their information he used for a way to cancel the Censor Trap, it even includes info of their military.
"The big guy could be a problem, and I remember battling the Eradicators." Said Naruto leering at the bulky Gargantuan. "But luckily, those idiots will handle him."
Speaking of which, the Legendary Baka Bros charges with the hungry look on their faces.
"FOOD!"
They tackle the Gargantuan and begins a two-on-one wrestle. While the Baka Bros wrestle the Gargantuan, Naruto took this chance to breach the warehouse and Anko joins in.
"Hey Anko, can I ask you a question?" said Naruto
"What is it?" said Anko
"Is there a reason why you're called the Snake Bitch?" said Naruto
Anko chuckled at Naruto's curiosity, and it's quite the perfect time to answer it.
"Well everyone might assume just because I was Orochimaru's student" said Anko as she pulled a sinister grin, showing off her sharp venomous fangs. "But that's not the even half of it."
Suddenly pixilated lights surround her and engulf her, and as the lights fade Anko is gone in her place is a giant 9-foot-long serpent with purple scales, and purple feather crest that resembles Anko's hair style. Everyone noticed the serpent and started to panic as it starts slithering towards them.
"HOLY SHI-!"
"Language!" exclaimed a sentinel when he hear the halflings swear, but he was silenced when the serpent wraps around the sentry tower and instantly ate the hooded bastard. "AGH!"
"run away!" screamed the halflings in fear, but the serpent give chase to the cowering halflings and starts eating them one by one. As they were eaten, they don't just go down to the snake's stomach, they disappear in a pixilated away until there is nothing left, and everyone it eats the, the serpent grows in length and size.
Naruto raised his brow at this while the serpent slithers past him and heads for the warehouse, next the entire area around the warehouse is littered with glowing multi-coloured dots which the Serpent starts eating. Every time the serpent eats the dots, the serpent slowly grows bigger and longer.
"Sss, it may not be Dango, but thessse dotsss do taste yummy" said the Serpent, which happens to be Anko. She slithers around the area getting longer and bigger. The CJ guards and the Halflings in the area are in panic from the sight of this colossal Serpent and tries to attack her, only to get eaten by Anko. "But eating THESE FUCKERS…HA HA HA HA!"
The chaotic scene in Mellowshire is beautiful for Naruto and is perfect for him, with the security fleeting, the Warehouses are now vulnerable, and he rushes by to loot them one by one.
Warehouse #1: Meat cooler
Naruto enters the first Warehouse and sees it completely cold inside and full of the meaty products from a meat processing plant in a realm called Rupture Farms, and from local farms, butchers and meat processors in the Shinobi Nations.
Naruto smirks at the sight and notices the empty carts which are conveniently parked in the building. The Overlord raised his gauntlet to summon his minions which pops out from the ground and form up a line while saluting to their master.
"Alright, get packing!" said Naruto pointing at the meat products while performing Shadow Clone Jutsu to summon 2 clones. "Once the carts are full, get the hell out of here and head for the drop off point.
"Got it" said the Clones while Naruto leaves the Warehouse and heads for the next one.
Naruto was about to leave the warehouse when he noticed something hanging on the wall and stained in blood. It resembles a bow saw but it has a hinge on the side as the handle could be lifted. Naruto reaches for it and examines it, the blade is unlike the other saws, it is curved like a cleaver, but the edges are serrated any saw has.
As Naruto lift the handle, it changes from a Saw into a menacing cleaver. Naruto's eyes beamed with excitement as he saw the weapon's transformation.
"I'm taking this" said Naruto as he straps the new weapon on his back. Who ever thought of this is a genius!
Saw Cleaver Obtained
Description: One of the trick weapons of the workshop, commonly used in the hunting business.
This saw, effective at drawing the blood of beasts, transforms into a long cleaver that makes use of centrifugal force.
The saw, with its set of blood-letting teeth, has become a symbol of the hunt, and only grows in effectiveness the more grotesquely transformed the beast
"Quick, put the warehouses on lockdown while the big guys and that FUCK snake is busy!"
"Huh?" said Naruto as the warehouse doors suddenly barricaded by a secondary door that closes vertically like a shudder. "Oh, Yami dammit"
Naruto sighed and approaches the door and touches it, fortunately it is made of wood and Naruto has a new weapon which is one of wood's terrible enemies, second to fire and axes.
He pulls out the saw cleaver and kept it on Saw mode and starts sawing the door open, it eats through the wood as he moves back and forth to form an exit. On the other side the blade sticks out and moves up and over in an arch-like path until it reaches the bottom. As it reaches the end, the door is cut and kicked down, sadly a Halfling and Censor knight got squished by the kicked down door while Naruto exits it along with a few clones each riding the cart fill of the meaty products.
"Head for the drop off point" said Naruto strapping his saw cleaver on his back.
"Got it, boss" said one of the clones before he and the others ride off with all that tasty meaty produce.
"Now then, what's next?" said Naruto
Warehouse #2: Fruits & Vegetables
"Huh?" said Naruto in confusion the moment he entered the next warehouse, but what he sees is nothing but vegetables. "I'm confused, I thought the CJ would be alright with fruits and vegetables. "Whatever, just haul 'em up"
The minions started loading the contraband in the carts, Naruto is rubbing his head in confusion at this, why would the Censored Justice confiscate and lock up fruits and vegetables when they are in fact healthy and appropriate to eat.
As the minions kept on loading the carts, an apple falls rolls off stops by Naruto's feet.
"This doesn't make sense" said Naruto but shrugs it and decided to take a bite off the apple, meanwhile Ayame returned and saw Naruto in the warehouse.
"Oh good, you found the Greens" said Ayame with delight
"Huh?" said Naruto, his mouth is fill of the apple. Ayame noticed the bitten fruit in Naruto's hand and panics.
"Oh no, you didn't bite that apple, right?" said Ayame in fear and denial "It's got to be those stupid imp things, right?"
"Err. No, I'm eating it" said Naruto as he's about to take another bite when Ayame swatted it off his hand. "What the…?"
"Damn it, should've warned you!" exclaimed Ayame, angry at herself. "Naruto, those aren't normal fruits and vegetables. They're called Greens"
"Greens?" said Naruto when he's slowly feeling lightheaded.
"Greens are crops grown by Farming Sim Gamers" said Ayame "Perfect ingredients for cooking top quality dishes, but there is a dark side to it."
"Uugh" groaned Naruto as his vision is warping chaotically as the colouring is randomly changing.
"If eating raw, Greens will put you on a psychedelic trance like Pot and LSD. However, the apple curb anxiety." Said Ayame as she noticed Naruto giggling
"Hehehehe, pretty colours" slurred Naruto as he starts wobbling out of the warehouse in a slurred fashion, however this doesn't affect his combat skills when a Censor knight tried to be a hero and stop him, only finding himself amputated and sporting a deep gash with his intestines popping out. "Ew, red liquorish in a piñata, and it's soaked in Kool-aid…gross"
"WHAT THE HELL?!" exclaimed Jūbi as the mindscape is wrapping out of control, strange colourful and happy characters started popping out of nowhere in Naruto's mind. "Damn, it Naruto!"
Halfling Castle: Dining Hall
In the main capital city of the Land of Hills stands a Halfling castle which was built within the highest hill that only the upper floors are seen along with the rooftops and surrounded with numerous keeps defending it. And in the dining hall of the castle sits its Lord enjoying his bountiful supper with a special guest. The feast is chocked up with rich delicious food from the contraband delivered from the CJ couriers.
The Lord of the Castle is huge, gluttonous and sports an extremely bloated belly that formed this Daimyo to resemble a human water balloon filled with fat and slowly digesting food. He is Melvin Underbelly II, grandson of the Halfling Hero who opposed the 2nd Overlord formerly known as Emperor Mateus of Palamecia after the fall of his first domain known as the Palamecian Empire.
And like his grandfather, Melvin inherited his gluttony and extreme obese figure, but Melvin is not a slob as he doesn't go out of control when it comes to food. He has proper dinner manners and etiquette like a well-respected nobleman.
"Ah, a fine bounty our allies have given us" said Melvin wiping his fat lips and bloated cheeks after finishing a whole Scab Cake. "It's nice of them to give all this food to us if they don't want to eat it."
"And I hope you stick to you part of the bargain" sitting on the other side of the table is the Daimyo's guest, a member of the Censored Justice in his robe and mask. "The Grandmaster wants this alliance with the sub-humans to stay solid for our incoming war against the Gamers."
"Do not worry, it's a fair compromise really" said Melvin "You give us the food you assigned us to confiscate while I give you authority of my nation's military, Law and Security while keeping my own authority if I am initiated as a member."
"Correct, we heard about the legendary 7 heroes who defeated the Gamer Overlord, formerly known as Emperor Mateus." Said the CJ member.
"But you should know about my grandfather's downfall" said Melvin "I mean look at me, even I'm succumbs to the cardinal sins of Gluttony."
"But thanks to the Akamichi training, your…physique is nessecary" said the CJ member
"I could invite one of them for lunch, I could go for a guest who appreciate food than I" laughed Melvin. "You hadn't even eat anything from the table."
"I am here on business, Melvin. Not for communal leisure" said CJ member "Now if you excuse me, I need to inform the Grandmaster of our successful negotiation."
"Please do, I want to enjoy my supper without you awkwardly sitting there eating nothing since you rudely refused any refreshment." Said Melvin with a slight snarl. And with that, the CJ member left and Melvin snarled more. "Pompous, self-righteous fools. They think they're doing a world a favour, HA. The only reason I'm joining their little club is that I can make my fortified nation stronger than the other Shinobi Nations, and with the knowledge of the Akamichi Jutsus, we'll even start our hidden village and take over. Servant, more wine!"
"At once" said a Halfing servant as he heads to the kitchens.
While Melvin continues eating his supper, the sound of alarm bells ring loudly to reach the Daimyo's ears. The moment the ringing is heard, Melvin slowly stands up from his reinforced throne with alert.
"The Mellow Shire alarms, the warehouses are under attack!" said Melvin with panic.
He waddles to the side windows and looks out from them, he notices a giant snake rearing its massive head and striking within the industrial village of Mellowshire. Smoke rising from the buildings, the sound of battle mixes with the ringing of alarm bells, such a horrid sight for a Halfing Daimyo to see.
"How can this be? With thanks to the dwarves fortifying our defences, no one would try to breach through our walls and raid my nation." Said Melvin as he waddles away. "Quick, deploy the ABCs (Armoured Battle Carts) and the Fang Boars. Those scoundrels would be punished for this."
Halfling Warehouse #3 (Drinks)
Naruto arrived at the third warehouse where the liquid produces such as drinks are stored. As he arrived, some guards are having a dare on trying different drink in the building, such as the Soul Storm Brew which is rumoured to be made of unethical and controversial ingredients to the Nuka colas which are indeed tasty but moderately radioactive.
"Go on, what that brew tastes like?" said Halfling Guard #1
"It started slightly salty at first, but it does have a unique aftertaste" said Halfling guard #3 downing the green liquid down in one go. "But I must say, I could go for another."
"Nice try, but we can't let you. The CJ said that beverage is addictive, and on purpose too." Said Halfling Guard #2
"Another plot from those capitalists, huh?" said Halfling guard #1
"Yep" said Halfling guard #3 "They said they tested on slaved to ensure it is addictive but "safe" to drink. The Mayor has the classified dossier about it, I'm surprised that they have the same language than us."
"What, you thought they are from another world that they would be speaking in a unknown language?" said Halfling Guard #1
"Well…yeah, I mean our forefathers dealt with Uruks, Ologs and even, hell even the undead and they each speak in the malevolent tongue of black speech." Said Halfling guard #3
"What's capitalism for ya, they chose the most "universal" language to speak, probably just to make business with the richest nations I suppose."
"Alright, alright enough about capitalism rant, we are not communists and get back to the other drinks" said halfling #2 as he pulls out a can of Nuka cola and opens it, a sudden wave of radiation escapes from the hole while said halfling drinks it. "Hmm, I think the radiation gives it it's original flavour, nice tough.
The Halfling Guard continues drinking the Nuka cola while the other 2 goes through the other drinks. Both tries to compare the Pirate Grog to Uruk Grog, despite having the same revolting taste in their mouth.
"I can't tell them apart; do they have their own ingredients." Said Halfling guard #1
"Surprisingly no, listen to this" said Halfling guard #3 as he both read the ingredients on both grog bottles. "Kerosene, propylene glycol, artificial sweeteners, sulphuric acid, rum, acetone, red dye no. 2, scum, axel grease, battery acid and/or pepperoni you could possibly imagine."
"Holy shit, all of that is in this gloopy black sludge?" said halfling #1 in shock.
"The stuff could eat away through all the pewter cup in the pub and can only be contained in reinforced glass bottles and extremely think barrels." Said Halfling guard #3 "It's got to be the most caustic, volatile substance known to man."
"Bet the barkeeps are losing their fortune with replacing their cups while serving their patron." Said Halfling guard #1
Naruto gingerly walks into the next warehouse, giggling out of his mind while humming "Do you believe in magic." The 3 Halfling Guards saw Naruto and stood up for the offensive, but Naruto is still in deep euphoria and continues giggling uncontrollably for no reason, but the Halfling saw this as a sign of mockery.
"He's mocking us, kill him!" said Halfling guard #2, but end result in him getting his potbelly cleaved open and his innards pulled out.
"Dang it, more red liquorice in Kool-aid" said frowning slightly, oblivious that he actually cleaved a halfling open and pulled his guts out. He giggles more and starts dancing gayly as if he is listening to music, flaying his saw cleaver in the air.
The 2 Halflings were mortified at the scene and growls at Naruto, who is still twirling around and making helicopter noises.
"Bastard!"
"Huh?" said Naruto as he stopped, but still on the influence of that Green he ate. "What?"
"What do you mean what?" exclaimed Halfling guard #1, "you kill our pal!"
"And?" said Naruto shrugging, he was going to kill them anyway if they try to get in his way. Still giggling. "I was meant to kill him, it's…itsh…ppart of the game"
"You think this is all fun and games to you, killing the innocent?" said Halfling guard #3
"Ee-yep!" said Naruto happily
"GET HIM!" roared Halfling guard #1 charging and his other comrade follows.
The 2 guards charge at Naruto, but the young overlord doesn't care as he is still in deep bliss and instinctually blocks their attacks with his Saw Cleaver swiftly, apparently the Green didn't just temporally stone him but also temporally buffed his speed and agility as his reaction time is flawless. He swiftly slashes one guard multiple times until all that fatty flesh and pot belly is flayed off.
"Ta-dah!" exclaimed Naruto with self—praise
"Bastard!" growled the last guard until Naruto suddenly appeared close to him and shushed him.
"Shhhhhhh, you're being loud" said Naruto before he saw the guard's neck, causing him to drown in his own blood. "Shouting all the time, and with such mean language. Not very polite for the CJ's new puppets."
The effects of the Green are starting to mellow down when he committed that last execution on the guard. But he still giggles but only slightly.
"Holy shit that was weird" said Naruto rubbing his head. "Whoa, is the floor slanted or something."
"You shouldn't have eat that Green, Naruto-kun" said Jūbi
"Whao, keep it down, be head feels like it's been wrecked from within.
"Tell me about it" said Jūbi as the mindscape is literally wrecked, as if a party was pulled there and everyone left without cleaning up afterwards. "No matter, I have a solution"
"What is it?" said Naruto until he felt something in his hand, he looks down to his hand and sees a blood red flask made of rough crystals with a copper nozzle and cap.
Blood Estus Flask Obtained
Description: an item that was made by Jūbi as a gift for her previous true mate using a Estus Flask from the Dark realm and the blood vials from the blood realms. The blood Estus Flask tastes like the person's favourite drink and they are rare
After reading the description, Naruto shrugs and starts drinking the flask, he can feel the effects of the Green wash away and his health and stamina replenish. After drinking, Naruto sighed in relaxation and straps the flask on his side. Jūbi watches her vessel drink the flask and couldn't help but blush at the sight.
"Thank you, Jūbi" said Naruto
"Y-Your welcome" said Jūbi with a slight stammer
"is something wrong, I hear you stammer for a bit." Said Naruto
"Sorry, I think some of the Green's influence caught up to me, it's not strong enough to intoxicate me but I can still feel it." lied Jūbi, she doesn't want to tell him the real reason why she gave her the flask which the description mentioned about. Not yet, let him focus first and then I'll tell him
"Alright, let's get this raiding over with" said Naruto "The sooner I find pudding, the better. Neptune is probably going berserk right about now."
Mellowshire
As Naruto exits the now emptied warehouses while his clones hijack the loaded the carts and leave the Halfling Region, alarm bells echo in the area as the attack from Anko in her Serpent form and the raiding from the Legendary Baka Bros, this causes the remaining warehouses to lockdown. The doors are fortified with portcullises and iron bolts, making them impossible to break open and lift as the locks clamps hold on the sides and floor.
Naruto heads for the next warehouse and pulls out his Saw Cleaver to saw an entrance for him to enter, but as he plants the saw blade in, it only scratches the dense iron portcullis and form sparks with the teeth scape the bars. He then tries his Demon's Scar to melt the bars off, but the metal has a high tolerance to the flame's heat, not even electricity is affected with the Lightning Whip spell.
"COME ON!" roared Naruto in anger as he formed his Chaos Claws and tries to rip them off and breaking them, but again no avail as the iron bars on the portcullis is still resistant. "FUCK!"
HA HA HA, FOOLS, THESE BARS ARE MADE OF DWARF IRON, THE STRONGEST IRON FROM THE DWARVEN MINES OF NEW EREBOR!
Naruto heard the Halflings who barricaded themselves in the warehouses through electric speakers hooked on iron posts on the pavements of this industrial village. The Baka Bros are trying to break the gates for their master, even Anko tries by contracting a warehouse as she is long and big enough to go around the building, but their attempts were in vain as the warehouse isn't taking any damage.
"DAMN IT, I CAN SMELL THE DANGO IN THERE!" hissed ANKO bearing her fangs in fury.
"Dumpling, we can smell dumplings!" exclaimed Raijin
Naruto growled at this and crossed his arms while the Halfling laugh and taunt them, he then remembered that he didn't try his Void Sword and might as well have one more go. He summoned his Void Sword and swings it at the iron portcullis, suddenly the iron freezes and starts to brittle and crack. Naruto raised his brows under his goggles and smirked with his Sharingan unconsciously active from excitement. He swings at the bottom hinges and they instantly break off, then the middle ones and end results the same. But his victory is short live as the upper locks are too high from his reach, despite the fact that he is still short to reach for them.
"Damn it, I had to be short" said Naruto until suddenly he read a ringtone in his ear.
Incoming Call: DARK PROTECTOR!"
Naruto answers the call and the voice of Kaito is heard.
^Hey Naruto, you doing today, nope never mind I can see that you're in a middle of a problem over there. Which is why I am calling you and teach you a Phazon attack for the Void Sword, it is the projectile attack for the Void Sword. It is called Void Projection and it makes anything freeze, from water to magma and it can help you with that iron portcullis. But be warned, the Void Projection uses a lot of Phazon. The good side is that your Phazon and Chaos and Void Meters go up when you level up and with each Mana Rune you have so you won't have too much trouble.
For using the attack, held your Void Sword up and point it at the objective, channel the Void power in your Sword and launch it forward. The Projectiles will resemble the blade from the sword but will launch like ballista bolts. Anyway I gotta go, I have student in my Shrine who is here for her routine training, and trying to see if I can get another prophecy from one of my friends, talk to you later.
Ja ne^
End Call
Naruto didn't even get a chance to respond, however the call is one-sided so it's no necessary to respond as the answers are already given by the Dark Protector. And heeding those words, Naruto tried this new technique on the iron locks on the portcullis, he aims his Void Sword and it shoots out a blue ethereal projectile in the shape of the sword's blade, the projectile hits a lock and the results never disappoint. The iron locks suddenly freeze, brittle and break, Naruto continues the attack on each remaining lock until the locks are destroyed and causes the now damaged portcullis to fall down and shatter as the frost from the Void Projectile spread across the iron bars.
Phazon Technique unlocked: Void Projection
Naruto chuckles and dispels his Void Sword while he approaches the warehouse door and pull out his Saw Cleaver, knowing that the door is also locked but easy to breach through now. "This is going to be fun" Which at that Naruto cuts the lock in half.
"Naruto-kun I am back." Said Ayame who just did her part. "Are you ok now?
"Yeah, I am now" said Naruto as he showed Ayame the Blood Estus Flask strapped to his side. "Luckily I found something that helped me recover from the after effects.
"Wow, Tou-san told me about this," said Ayame looking at the red flask with awe, "They're very rare to find, even the Estus shards to reinforce it is hard to come by. Did you find it in the warehouse."
"H-Hai" said Naruto sheepishly, he feels awkward lying to Ayame about how he got the flask. She knows about the Kyūbi but what she doesn't know about the Jūbi, he wanted to wait for the right moment to tell his allies about Jūbi. "I was lucky I happened to find it there."
"Don't worry, I'm sure she'll understand and accept the truth, she accepted you when she thought you had the Kyūbi in you" Jūbi reassuring her vessel.
"That maybe, but it's not comfortable thing to say especially with the end results are…discomforting." Thought Naruto to the Jūbi
"Come on, there's more warehouses to raid" said Naruto
Warehouses #4: Treats, Cakes and Sweets.
The Guards who confined themselves in the warehouse regroup when they heard the portcullis shatter like glass, which sound impossible since Dwarven Iron is the strongest and durable metals in the world. But with the doors breached and the enemy invite themselves in, the final battle in the warehouses is about to begin.
Naruto, Ayame, the Baka Bros and a now humanized Anko waste no time approaching their foes. Raijin and Fūjin saw the pile of treats behind their enemies and charges with hungry looks behind their Oni masks.
"Only a handful, and leave the pudding!" said Naruto calling out to his 2 summonses while drawing out his Saw Cleaver and Void Sword.
The Baka Bros immediately obliterate their opponents with their heavy weapons and bare fists, their bulky and herculean stature and strength overpowers the miniscule Halflings but they are at part with the Gargantuans, and only minor damage given by the human Censor Knights and their dense armour.
Naruto handles the armour problem thanks to his new Void Projection, firing sword-like projectiles at the armour to freeze and brittle them, aiding his allies through them. He also mutilates his opponents with his Saw Cleaver which has 2 sharp sides whenever the 2 forms is in. The serrated edge for his Saw mode is brutal as he slices through flesh horribly and messy, while the smooth but sharp edge for the Cleaver mode is perfect for decapitations, amputations and hacking through though thick meat from bulkier foes like the Gargantuan.
Ayame mainly uses her giant wok to whack her foes but her skills with kitchen knives are also deadly as she pulls one out whenever one of her opponents get too close.
Anko's transformation is impressive but only available at certain areas like vast open areas and mazes. But she has other techniques such as snake summoning without any use of handsigns, she reached out her sleeved arm and along forest green snake launches out from the sleeve and lunges at an unfortunate Censor Knight. She can even call out snakes from the wilderness to assist her by placing one of her hands on the ground and a swarm of them slither hastily to her.
After disposing the guards, every starts loading up the carts and Naruto place each of his Shadow Clones to drive them out to the drop off point. The Baka Bros are rewarded with their share of treats as promised, and Anko goes crazy with many packs of Dango.
"Ooooh yeah, I miss these lovelies" said Anko moaning ecstatically from every taste of her sweet mochi treat.
Naruto couldn't help but chuckle until he felt the floor vibrate beneath his feet and the fain sound of rumbling in the distance. He exits the ware and looks downhill to see a cloud of dust hastily approaching MellowShire. He activates his Sharingan to sharpen his gaze and see at the distance a dozen iron carts with caterpillar treads, armed with side guns and a rotary cannon on each top. And hauling these iron carts are giant armour-plated boars with sharp iron barbed tusks. Naruto uses Observe on them and the information reads out to him.
Armoured Battle Carts
Metal carts forged by the dwarves of New Erebor and given to the Halfling to solidify their alliance. Armed with broadside cannons and a main rotary cannon on the back, they are impervious to any attack which makes them dangerous and frightening to face. However, they are not auto motorized and needed huge and strong animals to hauls it for mobility.
Fang Boars
The Fang Boar is a very large boar covered in steel plating and featuring enormous tusks. As such, most weapons tend to bounce off its armour.
Naruto frowned as this quest is going to far and more troublesome as the message box appears with the quest update.

"Is everything ready!?" exclaimed Naruto with raised worry.
"Almost, why?" said Ayame leaving the warehouse.
"Because we have a problem" said Naruto gesturing the advancing ABCs.
Ayame saw what Naruto is pointing and startled with panic before hushing back into the warehouse.
"RETREAT, WE'VE GOT ENOUGH!" exclaimed Ayame "MAKE THIS THE LAST ONE, HURRY, HURRY!"
The carts storm out from the warehouse all at one, Ayame took the last one with her and Anko on board. Naruto jumps onboard also and in the nick of time before the ABCs finally reached Mellowshire.
But the assault now turns into a chase, the armoured riders of the Fang Boars whipped the tusked beasts to charge after the carts. The chase goes on as they reached the border gate of the Land of Hills, but the chase continues.
Forest
The ABCs continue their pursuit, firing their main cannons at the carts to stop and destroy them. Naruto crouches on the back of the last cart while drawing out his Void Sword, firing the blade projectiles at each of them since the armour is made of Dwarf Iron, which is impervious to any attack form of attack except one. The ABCs Freeze, Brittle and break from the coldness of the Void Projections, aiming at where the carts are at their now most vulnerable, such as the main cannons to cease their firing and their caterpillar treads to immobilize and crash them.
Even the Fang Boars began to all victim to the Darkborns's cold Phazon attacks. He keeps on firing at the armoured beasts before any of them are an inch close to any of the carts.
Naruto smirked with triumph until the sound of cannon fire is heard and the more ABCs crash through the trees and in flanking the courier carts. Naruto snarled as he has to hop on the moving carts and launch his Void projections at the flanking ABCs.
However, the flanked ABCs are hard since they are at both sides and Naruto can only focus on one side at a time.
"Damn it, Shadow Clone Jutsu!" exclaimed Naruto while performing shadow clone jutsu. "Keep firing!"
"HAI!" exclaimed the clones as they all perform Void Projection and started firing a flurry of blade projectiles at the ABCs on both sides. The results are a founding success, and in time too since the enemy were about to fire their cannons on them.
The second wave of ABCs freeze, brittle and break like frail glass, however some of the Fang Boars that haul the metallic carts survived the freezing Void attacks and continue to assault the carts, and they aren't happy with Naruto.
"Damn it, I missed some!" exclaimed Naruto glaring at the charging tusked beasts.
"Good, more for me" said Anko standing up and jumps out and transforming in midair and lands in full transformation. She slithers to the Fang Boars and strikes them with her pointed serpent head. "I'll catch up with ya, they're mine!"
"Got it" said Naruto as the carts are gaining distance from the Fang Boars thanks to Anko
Anko has left the party
Thank Yami for that thought Ayame as the same message appeared in front of her. She opens up her Main Menu and selects CALL and then presses RODIN
CALLING RODIN!
The call is dialling…call connected!

The masked performer in a indigo body suit and a dark butterfly mask continues to sing and dance on the stage in front of her nonexsistant audience, but Rodin listens to her singing while taking quick glances during his polishing of pint glasses and pewter mugs. Suddenly his telephone begins to ring and he picks it up.
"Hello, this is the Gates of Hell" said Rodin
This is Musume Cook, everything is now at the Drop off point
Rodin smirked at the news and turns around so that he can speak in semi-privacy.
"I'll pick them up after quittin' time" said Rodin "See you there"
After that, Rodin hung up and turns to the performer.
"Time to call it a day, I'll see you again this afternoon"
The Performer finishes her song and dance and exits the stage, she pulled off her mask and places it on the counter.
"Thanks Rodin, I had a great time, and tell Kneesocks-chan and Scanty-chan I will cover for them." said the performer, she is a pre-teen girl with short indigo hair with a strand of white hair on her bangs, cream skin and a pair of beautiful pearl-like eyes. Rodin tosses her a lilac jacket and she puts it over her indigo body suit. "Night"
"Will do, night, Hinata." said Rodin while turning off the lights and then locks up when his young performer exits his bar.
