-Village Hidden in the Leaves-
''That's the report, Minato sensei.'' Kakashi Hatake handed the mission report to his teacher. The mission was to go to the Blood Prison but it was destroyed. Hundreds of corpses were found and all inmates and guards gone.
''Thank you, Kakashi. You may go.'' Minato ordered his student.
''Minato sensei, was it necessary? To have did this to Naruto?'' Kakashi asked.
''It was the best and only option available at the time, Kakashi. I know it isn't that good of a defense and now... we paid the price.'' Minato simply said and Kakashi left his office. The silver haired jonin was not satisfied with that answer. And how could he be? Naruto was his student and their bond was getting better. Now it was just destroyed like that with no hope of fixing it.
''No sign of them, Minato.'' Jiraiya the toad sage said as he entered via the window. ''No sign of the Inuzuka or side branch Hyuga.'' Jiraiya said and walked down, sitting near his prized pupil. ''It's like they just vanished in thin air.''
''How did it come to this, Jiraiya sensei?'' Minato asked in a frustrated and stressed out tone. ''We made a plan, a terrible one, and it backfired in more ways than one. Naruto resisted and killed dozens of our ninja and destroyed village infrastructure, costing us hundreds of thousands of ryo. Then, the Blood Prison was seemingly attacked by an unknown party and Naruto is gone. And to make it worse, the Inuzuka and Hyuga side branch are gone and the village is in flames. Our academy students are gone and so is a large amount of our money and the Haruno clan. Heck, the Kurama clan too are gone. Did you get anything on the new Hidden Grass, sensei?''
''Are you suspecting that the Grass might have broken Naruto out?'' Jiraiya asked.
''Just a hunch I had.''
''No, Minato. Nothing my spies can get on the Grass.'' Jiraiya sadly replied. ''Their security is good. Very good. I have the best spies in the world and yet they say it would be impossible, Minato. I could try it myself but it would be difficult.''
''I can't lose you, sensei. I need you to take Menma and Mito on a training trip. Tensions are rising in the world. Several Stone ninja backed and powered by Orochimaru have killed Ohnoki in his sleep. They launched a coup and Ohnoki's granddaughter, Kurotsuchi, has fled with 2,350 loyalists. Sand is becoming increasingly hostile, Mist is a lost cause and Cloud is growing stronger. The Leaf is alone and all our economic allies have abandoned us because we falsely imprisoned Naruto. We are alone, sensei. I need as many powerful ninjas as possible and for my two children to learn how to control the fox.''
''Damn.'' was all Jiraiya could say. ''I know it was bad but I didn't think it was THIS bad, Minato. I'll take Menma and Mito on the training trip but before that, where is Tsunade? I haven't seen her.''
''Tsunade is gone, sensei.''
''What?'' Jiraiya could not believe his ears. ''What do you mean gone?''
''She and Shizune are gone, sensei. Chunin have seen her destroy the hospital and fleeing alongside the Hyuga and Inuzuka. I believe this is Naruto's doing.''
''How so?''
''Kotoamutsukami.'' was Minato's answer. ''Naruto has used it to control everyone who fled. They're all just mindless slaves Naruto can control now. I developed a new seal called the Nirvana Seal to stop the jutsu. Here.'' Minato gave his teacher a sample of the new seal. ''I should've known Naruto would abuse this particular jutsu.''
''Well, I'll be leaving now, Minato. See you in a few years.''
(Namikaze mansion)
Menma and Mito were again in their secret chamber, having fun with their victims. Mito was molesting a boy just younger than her while Menma, with a knife, cut opened the belly of a pregnant girl. ''Let's see if it is a boy or a girl.'' Menma said to the girl who was too weak to respond.
''How's the situation with mom, Menma?'' Mito asked.
''Who cares about that bitch? She's weak to have been taken out so easily. To think a weak coward like her gave birth to us, Mito. It defies logic.'' Menma grumbled and took out his crossbow to kill another girl.
''Have to agree with you there.'' Mito said and recieved the memories from her shadow clone. ''Jiraiya wants us for a three year training trip.''
''Good.'' Menma said, spitting on the girl's corpse. ''The faster I get stronger, the quicker I can prove that I'm the most powerful. I tell you, in three years, I'll be stronger than our weak dad and become Hokage.''

-Village Hidden in the Grass-
Thunder like sounds echoed in a large room but it was not thunder. It was the sound of swords clashing. Naruto and Daemon were having a spar as they both wanted to test the strength of the other. Naruto was much faster, more agile and born with greater talent but that didn't mean his cousin, Daemon Blackfyre, would be an easy match. No. Daemon might as well be the most difficult match Naruto ever faced in his age group. Daemon was more experienced as he fought in numerous battles. His strikes were much harder and his senses were sharp. Very sharp. According to Naruto, Daemon's senses were like sage mode without having learnt it.
Naruto had seen Daemon and Daena's chakra and it was dark purple, not blue like it usually should be. He believed it was the blood of King Enoch. This dark purple chakra was unique as it made genjutsu of any kind (at least to Naruto's own arsenal and knowledge) useless. They were practically immune to mind tricks. Kotoamutsukami would be useless but Naruto never planned on using it on his family. They were his family afterall.
The spar continued and Daemon was indeed the most difficult match Naruto ever faced in terms of swords. Daemon's strikes were like that of a sledge hammer and very powerful. They fought each other for more than twenty minutes and respected each other more. Eventually, Naruto's much faster speed won and he had his sword near Daemon's neck. ''A good fight, cousin. If it wasn't for my speed, I don't think I could win.'' Naruto praised his cousin's skills, giving credit where it was due.
''You are not bad yourself, cousin.'' Daemon replied. ''My mother made the right choice in getting to you quickly. I only wished it was sooner. To give you the company of a loving family instead of being alone in that traitorous village.''
''It's fine, Daemon. Now, our family is whole again and the long wait is worth it.'' Naruto told his cousin. 'Huh. Weird that I've only known Daemon for like a few days and yet he's more family than Sasuke had been in the past seven years.'
''Outsiders near the village. Scans indicate that they're from the Stone.'' Daemon told his cousin.
''Kurotsuchi.'' Naruto muttered. ''The granddaughter of the 3rd Tsuchikage. He had been recently assassinated and unknown to him, I have his dear granddaughter under my control. Her and a few thousand of her deceased grandpa's loyalists have fled the Stone. Under my orders, she led them here.''
''Let's give the welcoming party then.'' Daemon suggested.
''Of course. Tell me, Daemon, what exactly are you planning on doing to the Harunos? You told me if possible, kidnap as many women as possible.''
''Breeding stock back in Magog.'' Daemon bluntly answered.
''Ah. I understand.'' Naruto replied. ''And the soldiers? Why do they wear those gas masks and tight clothes beneath their uniform?''
''You have to understand Magog's history, cous.'' Daena Blackfyre told her cousin. ''The original inhabitants of the land that would be Magog were a somewhat subspecies of humans called orcs or in their tongue, Kannesi. A large tribe called the Neshites moved into the land and warred with each other for centuries. Eventually, the Neshites under House Sorvov won and encouraged cross breeding between humans and orcs. The modern Magogites are the direct descendants from them. Magogites or Kaneshites in the old tongue are of average stature, black eyed and coarse, pale skinned that do not like the sun. It harms their body and they wear these tight clothes beneath their uniform to protect themselves from the sun.''
''I see.'' Naruto said. ''And how did the Blackfyres rule over them, Daena?''
''Through war and conquest obviously.'' Daena replied.
''Ah. Should've known better than to ask. Let's meet our guests shall we?''
(outside the village)
Kurotsuchi, on her master's orders, led the loyalists out of the Stone and headed to the Hidden Grass. 2,350 ninjas from the Stone went with her, the major clans of the village joining her on this 'Stone exodus'. After the failed invasion, Ohnoki had upped her training and taught her the particle style. Given this, the loyalists believed she could kill the conspirators bur instead, she lead them here.
''Kurotsuchi, are you sure it's a wise choice to be here?'' one of the Stone jonin asked her.
''Of course it is. I wouldn't bring you here if it was not.'' Kurotsuchi replied and imperial troopers surrounded the area. ''Don't be alarmed! They're allies.'' Kurotsuchi ordered her grandfather's loyalists to stand down. After they reluctantly did, the imperial troopers escorted them inside the village where they would become subjected to Naruto's power.
(Naruto's room)
''You served me well and faithfully, my loyal servant.'' Naruto told Kurotsuchi.
''I live to only serve you, my lord. I learned the particle style from my late grandfather and on your orders, I will destroy your enemies, my master.'' Kurotsuchi said while kneeling down.
''Perfect.'' Naruto remarked at her progress. He sat on a chair with Yugito Nii and Hinata Hyuga near his feet like guard dogs. The doors of his room were knocked and he allowed the ones outside to enter. ''Yakumo. I'm glad you could join me.''
''I'm glad to have made this decision, Naruto.'' Yakumo, heiress to the Kurama clan, told Naruto. ''I am here as your ally to assist you whenever you need me.''
''I am pleased to hear I have people I can call allies.'' Naruto said and looked at the blue haired woman. ''Guren, leader of the Speculum Lunae. I finally got the honor of meeting you.''
''The honor is all mine, lord Naruto. After so long, I can finally serve you as I had been trained to.'' Guren said to the Uchiha.
Naruto decided to toy around with his fanatic follower. ''I do not know if Samui told you this but I'm the last of my clan. Will you be willing to-''
''My body is yours, lord Naruto. I only live to serve you.''
'That was quick. I didn't even finish my sentence.' thought Naruto and he wanted to test her words. ''If I ordered you to strip naked in front of me, would you do it?'' Naruto asked and Guren did just that, stripping bare naked in front of him. 'I think they did this whole indoctrination and brainwashing a bit too good. Can't deny the result though.'
Naruto stood up and examined Guren's body. To the crystal user, it was her dream come true. Naruto felt her smooth skin and touched her breasts. He pulled down his mask and sucked her right breast before sitting down again. ''Yes. I think you and I are going to get along just great, Guren.''

-Land of Water-
''Mist village. That is our target? One of the great 5?'' Daena asked her brother and cousin.
''Don't tell me you are not up for the task, Daena. I don't take you as the type to run away from a fight.'' Naruto teased his cousin a bit.
''I'm not running or being afraid, Naruto. I'm only concerned that the village leader who is a jinchuriki and can use his beast perfectly will annihlate us all if we do not plan carefully. These warships are powerful, very powerful but not comparable to a tailed beast. We need a careful plan to avoid such unnecessary destruction and I only have one solution. Either you or Daemon fight the Mizukage.''
''That's... the plan.'' Naruto told Daena. ''Really, it is. Daemon and I came to an agreement. The plan is basically like this: we get the rebels on our side, we draw Yagura's army out, Daemon fights them and I fight the overgrown turtle.''
''So Daemon will fight a thousand ninja. That's like his wet dream. I honestly feel bad for the Mist ninja considering just how powerful my brother is.'' Daena said to Naruto.
''I'm sure Daemon will enjoy himself very much. I'll go down and talk with the rebel leader.'' Naruto said and started to walk but before he did, Daena called him back.
''Wait, I'm just curious. How are we drawing Yagura's army out? An airstrike? Infrantry charge or ground artillery fire?''
''The thousand prisoners and guards from that damned prison. Mere cannon fodder and time bombs.'' Naruto answered and walked to the tower or the sail of the submarine. The submarine came out of the water, onto the island and Naruto walked out to find the rebels.
(Mist rebels main camp)
Naruto had found the Mist rebels and requested to be taken to their leader. They were skeptical about it but Naruto told them that he was on their side. They believed Naruto to be able to tip the war in their favor so allowed him to come inside. ''Right this way.'' a Mist chunin told Naruto and the small party entered the main rebel camp. Naruto saw hundreds of civilians and ninjas around the place and he had to respect their bravery.
''Lady Mei, there is someone here who wants to see you. He's been identified as Naruto Uchiha and he says he wants to join us.'' the right hand man of the rebel leader who's name was Ao, told Mei Terumi.
''Naruto Uchiha?'' Mei could not believe her ears. The great grandson of Madara Uchiha and a very powerful jonin of the Leaf, was here to join her cause. ''Let me see him, Ao.'' Mei quickly got up, fixed her hair and went out to meet Naruto.
''Mei Terumi, leader of the rebels, I presume. I am Naruto Uchiha and... I want to join your cause.''
______________________________________
-Village Hidden in the Mist-
The next day, Mei Terumi ordered all of her rebel troops to take their positions outside the village as Naruto had instructed. However, they waited for a full hour but no sight of the Uchiha. ''Lady Mei, are you sure we should trust that Uchiha?'' Ao, her right hand man, asked her. ''For all we know, he's just using us.'' he said and Mei kept quiet. She was uncertain of what Naruto was planning and all she could do was watch and wait.
Then, all of a sudden, black uniformed soldiers came in with a few wearing strange armor. And then, she saw Naruto alongside a silver haired teen walking. ''Have the troops take their positions.'' the silver haired teen ordered and the soldiers obeyed. It was clear to the Mist rebels that he was their leader. The armored individuals took their positions and something from the sky came flying down. Some buildings exploded and the walls were damaged significantly.
''NOW!'' one of the armored soldiers shouted and scrolls were pulled out. A poof and out came about a thousand people with weapons like swords, spears and normal farm tools. They were more of a mob than an actual army and they charged at the village. Mist ninjas started coming out and they engaged the prisoners and guards of the Blood Prison turned cannon fodder by Naruto.
'They're doing their job all right. Now, comes my turn.' Daemon thought to himself as he saw the Mist ninja slaughter the cannon fodder with ease. Then, the explosive tags put on them exploded, killing hundreds of Mist ninja. Daemon then walked to the battlefield, ignoring Mei Terumi and the other Mist rebels who told him to return.
''Hey, what's this? Did that bitch Terumi ran out of options?'' a Mist ninja said to his friends.
''Ha! She's sending a boy to fight an army.'' another taunted.
''Why don't you run back to your mom, kid?'' another one taunted still. If a western knight, assassin or soldier was with them, they would tell the Mist ninjas to run away. The Mist nin had no idea who they were making fun of.
''What the-'' a Mist ninja exclaimed as a javelin suddenly killed the first person who taunted the crown prince of Magog. ''Did that kid just do that?'' the Mist nin asked then they felt a wave of killing intent, far, far worse than Yagura Karatachi's sweep over them. It originated from Daemon and they began to be cautious. ''What the hell is this kid!?''
''I am Daemon Blackfyre. I am many things but today, ninjas of the Hidden Mist, I will take the role of your grim reaper.'' Daemon said and two purple portals opened. He took out two swords and charged at his enemies who were over 5,000 strong.
Daemon jumped and in insane speed rivaled only by the likes of Naruto, the Raikages and Minato Namikaze, decapitated six Mist ninjas. He did a spinning jump and stabbed a Mist ninja and then impaled another one. He went on a rampage, killing dozens with ease and continued on. ''This kid is a monster!'' a Mist ninja exclaimed in fear. A water dragon was shot at Daemon who took cut it as if it was nothing. Daemon slowly walked towards his opponents who shot numerous jutsus at him. Daemon's sword swings threw them all away. Daemon's hands lit purple and he unleashed a devastating attack that disintegrated dozens upon dozens of Mist ninja.
Daemon jumped back and purple fire danced on his hand. He then unleashed it as a powerful lake of purple fire. The water ninjas made a wall of water but it was useless. Then, obsidian chains came and impaled dozens of them. Daemon combined his swords into a double sword and attacked his enemies. He skillfully killed dozens and split it mid fight and then began his slaughter. He took out a spear from his portals and continued killing more. The ground shook and Daemon was now deep in a pit. Boiling hot water was poured down on him like a waterfall but Daemon wasn't worried. The water came back up and Daemon jumped, descending down with purple fire and created a massive explosion.
''What kind of a kid is this?'' a rebel Mist ninja asked his friends. ''He killed hundreds of them with ease.''
''And that ability to summon weapons, never heard of it before. Is it some sort of a new bloodline?'' another rebel asked.
Silvery liquid metal danced around Daemon till it became his battle armor. His helmet came and a cape of blood red colored fire was on his back. Daemon summoned two swords and he was coming to finish his fight. Two Mist ninjas jumped up to kill Daemon who threw two spears at them. The spears killed them and flew away to the other ninjas, causing two big explosions that killed nearly a hundred more. The ground started shaking and got lifted up. Daemon threw them at his opponents and jumped to face more. After he killed about two dozen more, he flew up high to the sky.
''Let them hear the roar of a dragon.'' Daemon muttered a over a hundred portals opened. Swords, arrows, spears, javelins and lances all ablaze with purple fire were shot in the hundreds. An orbital bombardment of weapons essentially and it slaughtered the surviving Mist ninjas.
''By the sage.'' a Mist rebel could only say those words after witnessing Daemon's power. Another rebel puked after seeing the gruesome massacre.
'And that is not even his full strength. Just a basic warm up.' Naruto thought to himself after seeing Daemon's display of power. 'I sense the tailed beast. My turn now.' Naruto then walked upto Daemon who hovered down. ''Time for my part now, cousin.'' Naruto told Daemon and went to face Yagura.
The 4th Mizukage arrived and saw the gruesome massacre of his army. He could sense the unique chakra of the weapons and trace it to Daemon. He got very angry. ''You there! The silver haired one in the armor! You killed them didn't you? I don't know how you did it but you will pay for this!'' Yagura declared to his few hundred remaining troops.
''That won't be necessary for I am your opponent, Yagura Karatachi.'' Naruto said to the Mizukage who, along with his troops, charged forward for an attack. Naruto jumped up and met the Mizukage mid air for a battle. Naruto grabbed Yagura and flash stepped away, leaving Daemon to finish things.
(Naruto vs Yagura)
''This will be the perfect place for our battle.'' Naruto commented as he looked at his surroundings. Flat, open and just perfect for his fight.
''What is your agenda? Why did you intervene on the rebel's side?'' Yagura asked.
''My interests are my own. I merely wish to make my powers stronger to reach a certain goal. You are just a chess piece, a pawn in this game, Mizukage.''
''You dare to call me a pawn!? I'll show you, bastard!'' Yagura shot a powerful water jutsu which Naruto countered with a big fireball.
The two drew their respective weapons and clashed in an intense duel. The ground shook, rocks turned to dust and the sound of their weapons clashing was like loud explosions. Yagura shot a water dragon which Naruto countered with his own fire dragon. Naruto's jutsu won but was swept away by Yagura releasing a gigantic wall of water. Naruto jumped up just in time to avoid Yagura's attack and he used Fujin to jump back further. With Suijin, he attacked Yagura with water whips and moved in to attack. Naruto's lightning attack was made useless by Yagura's water mirror jutsu and the Mizukage used his tailed beast chakra.
Naruto in return activated his dragon armor. The two fought fiercely with the dragon armor proving itself superior. Naruto released several explosive tags that exploded and burned Yagura. Black wind came, increasing the heat and wounding the Mizukage severely. Yagura roared in anger and entered stage two of his transformation. Chakra was focused on his mouth to form the signature tailed beast bomb. He swallowed it and unleashed it as a beam. Naruto summoned forth his Susanoo and the chakra avatar tanked it with ease. Chakra longswords formed and Naruto's Susanoo began to attack Yagura. In response, Yagura fully transformed into the three tailed turtle.
'Neat.' Naruto thought and focused chakra to his Susanoo till it turned into his armored Susanoo. It looked like that of a western knight in full armor. The three tails swung it's tails which the Susanoo blocked with it's longswords. The armored Susanoo swung it's blades, causing a powerful wind gust and it threw yasaka magatama beads at the turtle, hurting it. The tailed beast roared in anger and fired a tailed beast bomb at the Susanoo. In response, Naruto shot the very powerful Susanoo cero to counter it. The three tails rolled itself like a ball and attacked Naruto.
The mighty Susanoo grabbed the turtle and after struggling for a bit, threw it away. Naruto turned the longswords into a swirl of energy and shot a barrage of chakra beads and Susanoo balas at the turtle. Naruto forged a spear and a longsword and attacked the beast, striking it in key parts. Naruto continued the bombardment till the scales cracked. After that, the Susanoo dissipated and Natuto flew high into the sky. Naruto focused large amounts of chakra to his hands for the gran rey cero. Naruto then shot it at the three tails and caused a very large explosion to occur that shook the land.
Naruto managed to flew down and his armor disappeared for he used up all of his chakra. He barely had enough for the wings. He saw a wounded Yagura crawling and he threw a kunai, hitting Yagura's hand. ''Do yourself a favour. Close your eyes.'' Naruto told the Mizukage and swung his sword. In one fell swoop, the Mizukage was dead. He grabbed his head and flash stepped to the battlefield. He held it up high and the Mist rebels cheered at the victory of finally winning the war.
