Chapitre 31: Chapter 31
Kuzo was in the changing locker room. Behind him and in other rooms were many shinobis from various ninja clans. Most of Konoha's jonins and Anbu were gathered now.
Kuzo wore a mask on his face, and then he said, "It's time to go."
Today was the day before the Chunin exam.
While Orochimaru was still in the village, they would attack everyone.
Kuzo would lead a squad of his own and go to the Sound Village.
"Alright."
A woman drew a circle around Kuzo. The circle was made of seals, which he could read.
Apparently, when it came to Fuinjutsu, Kuzo didn't need to kill other people to learn how to make a seal. All he had to do was to understand the characters. It felt like programming, and that's why the summoning seals grabbed his attention.
She weaved a series of hand signs, saying, "Reverse summoning."
The seals then came to life, surrounding Kuzo and his squad.
Puff
From the place Kuzo had planted the summoning contracts, characters spread on the ground, and a large smoke screen appeared, revealing 30 masked shinobi.
They all had their masks down on their faces. Kuzo never understood why these guys wore masks. But it sounded badass, so he didn't mind.
"Alright, guys. The first step is to take over the test subjects of Orochimaru and bring them out. The Hyuga would detect them. And we'd fight."
As much as he was excited to bomb the village, it would be bad to kill the innocents and children Orochimaru had in his facilities.
A Hyuga shinobi stood next to Kuzo. He formed a hand sign.
The Hyuga were the best shinobis you could have around you. They could see for a very far distance, and no wall could stop them from looking.
"I've located the places," said the Hyuga. "Now, let's be as silent as possible."
They then started moving. While stealthily lurking between the shadows, Kuzo wondered how the other teams were doing in other facilities. He could trust them.
Kuzo appeared behind two guards who guarded a gate, a kunai behind each one's throat.
'They were only genins at best,' he thought.
But the problem was, Orochimaru had more than thousands of ninja in his sleeve.
So it would take time.
After the stealth stage and killing the guards, the shinobis then went inside the facilities, attacking what seemed to be Orochimaru's henchmen doing inhuman experiments. The people who were in the cells started screaming.
"Help me! I want to go home!"
"Just kill me! I want to die!"
"I don't wanna kill anymore!"
Their screams and words were justified. However, their loud screams alerted more guards to come over.
Kuzo stood at the gates, and he said behind him, "The guards are coming here. You guys take these out. I'll handle them."
"You're certain, Kuzo-sama?" asked one of the shinobis. "It would be best if we help."
"They're not much," Kuzo replied, bones extended from each part of his body.
There were more than a hundred shinobi on his way. From the feeling of their chakra, only one gave the vibes of a Jonin. The rest were a bunch of genins and chunin, hardly at the level of the great villages. Nevertheless, he crouched. Once he moved, he turned into a blur, the masked Sound shinobi barely noticing the grace of his movement. Kuzo didn't need to punch each one, as the bone spikes took care of everything.
'I feel like Madara, except Madara could do this to Jonins.'
Kuzo thought as he punched and kicked. Each movement of his took more than one life. The only hardship Kuzo faced was when he fought against the Jonin. But it was ended as soon as he released a bit of his stored nature chakra. He then released spider webs, trapping the Jonin's legs, allowing Kuzo to shoot a bunch of bone bullets, which pierced his head.
Once he was done, Kuzo stood on top of the corpses of his foes.
Many low-tier jutsus entered his library. Their chakra and power joined him.
They alone were like pieces of peanuts. Not much alone. But together, they could form a very fulfilling meal.
"Take everyone out. I'm going to destroy this village," said Kuzo.
The remaining team obeyed, taking out the test subjects and leaving those who died behind. Those test subjects were very strong to handle Orochimaru's experiments and stay alive. Besides, they usually stayed alive so that they could participate in royal battles and be picked up for his missions.
Konoha's ninja took them out to a safe distance, leaving only Kuzo inside.
Kuzo weaved a series of hand signs before creating a seal in the air, which started grabbing nature chakra around him.
His body didn't absorb the nature chakra, nor did it mix it with his own. He just acted as a vessel.
If Kuzo thought about this Fury Jutsu, it was like the Spirit Bomb from Dragon Ball. (You can search the jutsu on YouTube.)
Once Kuzo was certain he had gathered enough chakra, he weaved the hand signs. Red characters extended from his body, forming a sphere around him. Then a white energy exploded, releasing huge pressure, erasing nearby buildings. A large-sized explosion was released, covering the whole village and more land.
No wonder this ninjutsu was classified as a Kinjutsu. A whole village that could house hundreds of thousands of people was erased like that.
Kuzo found himself standing in the middle of the explosion.
Those shinobis who had hidden and those who were sleeping were erased from existence.
Kuzo could feel his power doubling.
When he was done, he went back to his team. They looked at him in awe behind their masks.
One of them had a very large summoning monster, which had almost everyone on them.
"We're going back to Konoha with reverse summoning. Let's go," said the one who had the giant dog.
Kuzo nodded and jumped on the dog. Everyone then turned into a puff of smoke, getting summoned back into Konoha.
When Kuzo found himself in a certain training ground, he was facing the Hokage and the other shinobis.
Because of the Chunin exam, the Hokage had to send a shadow clone to this location so he wouldn't grab attention.
From the reports Kuzo heard, they destroyed Orochimaru's facilities easily.
As for Kuzo, he became a high-ranking Jonin because of this, both in power and physique. Even Guy now would need to open a few gates to match him.
"Good job, everyone," the Hokage said, "Take a break now, because tomorrow, we are going to capture the cause of all of this. And hide these gentlemen until the test is over." By these gentlemen, he meant the test subjects of Orochimaru. Most of them had a special Kekki Genkai, and they could be turned into assets of Konoha.
Kuzo took off his mask like everyone else, deciding to get back into the locker room, maybe take a shower, and then have a long night of sleep.
He found it funny how, after he destroyed a whole village, he found the desire to sleep.
But at least, the killing urges from the Gluttony seal would calm down.
A purple-haired, large-breasted woman stopped Kuzo and patted him on the shoulder.
It was Anko, "going away, without saying a single word."
He looked at her, smiled, and said, "a bit tired. You need something?"
"You've been ignoring me lately," she said in a questioning yet disappointed and insecure tone.
"Have I?" Kuzo asked, scratching the back of his head. Surely, he had been training lately and doing a few missing-nin hunts, which tightened his schedule. He also had a few dates with Hotaru.
He scratched the back of his head, saying, "Maybe I didn't have time. You should come to visit me often if you feel lonely."
"As if it's easy to find you," she replied, rolling her eyes. "And I'm a busy Jonin as well."
"It's too bad that our time schedules are different. But at least, we are here now for this mission."
"Yeah," she nodded, leaning on a nearby tree. "Tomorrow, I'll corner my previous teacher."
"Nervous?" Kuzo asked.
"Maybe," Anko gave him a small gentle smile, nodding slightly. "Thank you for everything."
She just gave him suicidal vibes. What else could thanking him around 2 AM mean?
"Hey, don't talk as if you are about to die," Kuzo said, remembering a scene from the other timeline, where Anko was about to use a suicidal technique on Orochimaru, only to realize she had been about to use it on a mud clone. What was funny about that scene was Orochimaru's laugh at her reaction when she realized that she almost killed herself for a clone. That proved one thing, and it was Orochimaru's love for trolling. That, and Anko's willingness to die for the sake of killing her teacher.
"Pfft," she chuckled, "You should see your face. No. I'm not suiciding. I thanked you because ever since you removed that curse mark, I could sleep peacefully. The snake no longer appeared in my dreams."
Kuzo sighed and shook his head. "At least I admire you for saying that. If it were me, I would never…"
"Let me thank you properly," she replied. When Kuzo looked forward, he saw her face, her eyes locking on his lips. His lips landed on her cherry lips, and Kuzo didn't resist the kiss, letting his tongue play with hers while feeling heat emanating from her cheek. Kuzo was getting in the mood.
She pulled back, pushed her hair stand back, and said. "I'll see you tomorrow then. You should rest. We have a mission after all."
She just blue-balled jutsu'd him.
"Ah, see you tomorrow," trying to act cool, Kuzo turned and left.
