Kapitel 50: Conditions; The Shadows that lurk...
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
AUTHOR'S NOTE -
Though this story is about Naruto, At this stage, Naruto is an already a developed character, so I have changed my focus to other characters and background events until the Rescue arc comes into play…
Naruto will be back as the main character from the rescue arc onwards.
Thank You for understanding.

Jiraiya stared at Naruto who had transformed speechlessly.
This continued for a while.
"Pervy-Sage?" Naruto asked.
Jiraiya gave no reaction whatsoever. He just stood frozen in his place.
Naruto released his transformation.
"Earth to Pervy-Sage!" Naruto waved his hand in front of Jiraiya's face.
Naruto placed his hand on Jiraiya's shoulder.
Jiraiya swayed a bit before losing his balance and falling over in his frozen state as a statue.
Soon blood started flowing out of his nose.
The blood flowed at a steady rate until a small puddle had formed.
("This nosebleed is too much…") Naruto thought as he tried to wake Jiraiya up, whose expression slowly turned into that of a lewd one.
….
….
Back in the training field…
("Fourth Hokage….") Sasuke thought.
"Now Sasuke!"
"I am going to present you with the conditions of mine," Kakashi said as he held up his finger.
"One,"
"You will only use this technique when the situation demands it."
"Mm." Sasuke nodded.
Kakashi put up two fingers towards Sasuke.
"Two,"
"You will never use this technique against a comrade from your village," Kakashi said.
Sasuke froze at this moment.

…
"You are someone who could be able to use Mangekyou Sharingan just like me."
"However, on one condition."
.
"That you must kill your closest friend…"
.
"And one day, when you have the same eyes as I do..."
"Come and stand before me!"
….
"I will tell you the truth about your brother if you defeat me in battle one day…"
Sasuke looked towards Naruto feeling hope rise up in his heart once again, as he regained his former expression of arrogance once again.
…
FB
…
Sasuke thought between Kakashi's, Itachi's and Naruto's words.
The words repeatedly played in his mind.
At this moment…
Kakashi extended his hand towards Sasuke.
"Shake on it if you accept to my conditions," Kakashi said as he stared at Sasuke.
Sasuke felt extremely pressured.
Should he listen to the words of his brother, or the so-called battle against his closest friend or to make an agreement, he would never intend on following.
Sasuke looked at Kakashi's face that seemed full of expectation towards his reaction to the conditions that had been laid forth.
Sasuke felt cornered as he stared at the hand that was placed in front of him.
The Chuunin Exam…
The Revenge…
The Battle…
The Promise…
Sasuke felt his mind about to burst as he subconsciously raised his hand while facing the high pressure from the burdens he carried.
He gritted his teeth in anger, with his eyes tightly closed.
Unknowingly, his hand fell onto Kakashi's hand.
"Good!" Kakashi nodded.
Sasuke abruptly opened his eyes to see his hand on top of Kakashi's palm.
Sasuke looked up to see Kakashi smiling at him.
However, at this moment, he felt even more pressure fall into him as though his body would crumble on the spot if he had any more decisions to make regarding such matter.
…
…
In a cave below a mountain…far away….
"Kabuto!"
"Yes! Orochimaru-sama!"
"Have you prepared the five bodies yet?" Orochimaru asked as he kept Four Kunais by the side of the table with talismans attached to them, which had characters written in blood.
Kabuto walked towards Orochimaru as he pointed out in a particular direction.
Orochimaru and Kabuto then walked together towards the place Kabuto had pointed.
…
They arrived at a small room which was barren with about five human bodies lying on the floor that had been bound up in ropes, while they lied down in almost complete silence, except for the fact that they took weak breaths.
"Comatose condition as requested, Orochimaru-sama!" Kabuto said as he drew one of the bodies towards Orochimaru.
Orochimaru smiled as he took out a particular scroll from a snake's mouth, within his sleeve.
…. >> Situational FB
In a meeting place, a man was sitting behind the curtain as he looked at a certain figure in front of him.
The Fourth Kazekage was wearing his Kage's uniform with a hat that represented the wind nation.
"There are two specific things I require for our operation to be successful," Orochimaru said with a sly smile across his face as he spoke to the Fourth Kazekage.
"What is it?" The Kazekage asked as he looked towards Orochimaru with a not so pleasing expression on his face,
…Silence persisted in the atmosphere before Orochimaru finally continued…
"First, I would like for the Jinchūuriki boy to be the main force of destruction during this war, as I will be counting on him for major destruction," Orochimaru said, causing the Fourth Kazekage to frown.
"What is the other one?"
"Oh, nothing much!" Orochimaru said as he sent forth Kabuto with a personal message.
Kabuto jumped towards the curtain as he passed by it and appeared beside the Kazekage.
He then whispered some words to him near his ears.
The Kazekage, got up aggressively as he stared at Orochimaru with a very grim expression.
Orochimaru smiled as he waited to see the reaction of the man, to his request.
The Kazekage then summoned one of his nearby jounins.
He conversed with the jounin in secret, causing sweat to pour out profusely from the man's head.
"Kazekage-sama!" The man called out as he looked towards the Kazekage with a shocked expression across his face.
The Kazekage signaled him to calm down since it was his direct order.
The man nodded and left the scene.
Meanwhile, Orochimaru and the man stared at each other.
A few minutes later, the sand village jounin placed a body wound up in cloth, whose surface was covered with sand and dust on the floor beside Orochimaru.
Orochimaru turned towards Kabuto and nodded.
Kabuto followed by raising up his hand, while he folded his right elbow towards himself with his Palm straightened out.
<Medical Ninja Art - Chakra Scalpel >
Kabuto thrust his hand into the body to lift it up a bloodied and dried piece of the organ from the body and held it up in the air.
Orochimaru took out a scroll, he then opened it and laid it on the ground.
The scroll had characters written in black ink, which were neatly arranged in a circular formation with a blank space in between.
Kabuto smirked, whence he saw the scroll. He walked over to the scroll and placed the organ on the empty space in the scroll.
Orochimaru then clasped his hands together and roared.
"SEAL!"
The organ disappeared into the scroll, following which the blank space before had now changed to a character that represented the characters for the word seal.
... Situational FB
…
Orochimaru opened the scroll and performed the tiger seal.
HAH!
(Poof!)
A small cloud of smoke appeared following which the organ appeared on the scroll.
Orochimaru lifted the organ with care, slowly as he placed it in his hands very carefully like it was the most precious thing in the world.
He then approached the body that was lying nearby and placed the organ gently on the body's chest.
Orochimaru then looked towards Kabuto and said.
"Kabuto!"
"If this works out, then we are going to head out to an abandoned village," Orochimaru said as he brought his hands together.
Kabuto watched patiently, while Orochimaru did this.
< Tiger > < Snake > < Dog > < Dragon >
Orochimaru then clapped his hands as he finished the hand seals.
< Summoning Technique - Impure World Reincarnation. >
(Whoosh!)
Matters from nearby started gathering quickly onto the body of the bound man, swiftly altering the looks of the man.
Soon, it formed a figure, upon which Orochimaru displayed a very happy smile.
"How nice of you to join us…"
Orochimaru said as he approached the body.
The matters around the area gathered at a much higher speed as it completely transformed with all features becoming visible.
"Third Kazekage of the Iron Sand." Orochimaru smiled….
