On the way to Taki, Team 7 didn't have to protect Shinuki from much. Unless you count all birds, chipmunks, squirrels, and deer that spooked the Village Head.

Nothing happened yet, and Kakashi was glad. A normal C-Rank mission. This should have been their first C-Rank mission. Oh, how wrong could Kakashi be?

Very wrong apparently. Seeing as when they got to Taki, the village was on fire, and was in the middle of getting invaded. Taki would have looked amazing, seeing as the village was built into the base of a humongous tree that you can only see in a fairy tale. Kakashi just thinks, "Why did I have to jinx myself like that?"

Shibuki then says, "You can go, I need to help my village!"

Naruto then asks, "Can we help Kakashi. I mean, Taki is one of our oldest allies. We would want to tarnesh our relationship with Taki. Now would we, Kakashi-sensei?"

Kakashi answers, "Go Naruto! Help Taki. Me, and Sasuke will help Shibuki. While Sakura will help the civilians."

Naruto chuckled evilly, as he puts his mask on, and pulls his hood over his head. A mist settles over the boy. Once the mist dissipates, Naruto is gone. He disappeared in a Mist Shunshin.

Shibuki asks, "Are you sure about this?"

Kakashi answers, "About what? Helping you, and Taki? Yeah, I am. Now does everyone know their roles?"

Sasuke replies, "Hn!"

Sakura says, "Yes I do, Kakashi-sensei."

Kakashi then says, "Good now do them!"

Sasuke, and Kakashi then run after Shibuki, while Sakura runs off to find civilians to help.

While that is happening, Naruto, who just covered the part of Taki he was in, in a thick mist. Naruto then demonically asks, "There are eight points in the human body, in which I can kill you. They are the larynx, spine, lungs, liver, jugular, subclavian artery, kidneys, and heart. It's your choice?"

One over arrogant Ame-nin replies, "Yeah right! As if you can see in this... Gahh!" The Ame-nin then falls dead, from a slash from Kubikiribocho. Naruto then makes Shadow Clones who kill every Ame-nin in the mist.

Naruto then appears behind the last Ame-nin in the mist before decapitating them. When the mist clears, Naruto hears clapping. The Uzumaki turns to the sound, and sees a muscular, tough-looking shinobi.

He wears a black, sleeveless shirt, grey pants, ninja sandals, and brown-coloured arm warmers. He has about chin length grey hair which is spiked at the top. He also has a teal line marking that goes over his nose, somewhat resemblant of Iruka's scar.

Naruto, who has Kubikiribocho at the ready, over his shoulder asks, "Who are you, and who hit you with the fugly stick?"

The man answers, "My name is Murasame, and I look just fine the way I am. Anyway, now that you know who I am, who are?"

Naruto replies, "Me? Well... I am Naruto Uzumaki, the Konohagakure no Kijin. The true successor of Zabuza Momochi, former member of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist." Chakra then explodes from Naruto as it takes the form of an orange colored fox demon that has nine-tails swishing back, and forth. He also adds some of his, and the Kyuubi's killing intent into the area scaring the crap out of him.

Naruto then covers the area with a thick mist once again. He then weaves a huge string of hand seals. Ox → Monkey → Hare → Rat → Boar → Bird → Ox → Horse → Bird → Rat → Tiger → Dog → Tiger → Snake → Ox → Ram → Snake → Boar → Ram → Rat → Yang Water → Monkey → Bird → Dragon → Bird → Ox → Horse → Ram → Tiger → Snake → Rat → Monkey → Hare → Boar → Dragon → Ram → Rat → Ox → Monkey → Bird → Yang Water → Rat → Boar → Bird. The blonde yells, "Suiton: Suiryūdan no Jutsu (Water Release: Water Dragon Bullet Technique)!" Naruto manipulates water into the shape of a dragon, which he then directed at a target. The water dragon then crashes upon the target, which makes him fly across the mist, and right next to a Shadow Clone.

The Clone then goes through a string of hand seals. Snake → Ram → Horse → Hare → Ram → Horse → Hare → Snake → Ox → Clap Hands. He yells, "Suirō no Jutsu (Water Prison Technique)!"

With Murasame now stuck in a sphere of water, the mist disappears. Naruto appears in front of Murasame, and asks, "Is it getting hard to breath?"

Murasame then notices his labored breathing in shock. Naruto asks, "What about your restricted movement?"

To Murasame's shock once again, he found that he could barely move. Naruto says, "You will die soon, but I'd find a way to get out of this, If I were you?"

The Shadow clone the dispels into a puff of smoke. While Murasame splashes to the ground, revealing that he was a water clone all along. Murasame then appears in front of Naruto.

He then cups his hands, gathering up water. The water turns into ten shuriken, which shootout at Naruto. Murasame yells, "Suiton Mizu no Buki (Water Release: Water Weapons)!"

When Naruto dodges the shuriken, which then turns into two water clones, who do the same hand seals. Rat → Dog → Ox. The clones then yells, "Suiton: Suiben (Water Release: Water Whip)!" Two whips made out of water then wrap around Naruto, trapping the Uzumaki.

Naruto then says, "This is sad. You are a sad excuse for a shinobi, Ttebayo!" Murasame then gets enraged by Naruto's word, rushing the blonde, and tackling the Uzumaki to the ground. Only for Naruto to dispel into a puff of smoke, signaling that Naruto was a Shadow Clone all along.

Naruto then appears above Murasame, and flips. Bisecting the man from his head, down to his dick. This obviously kills Murasame.

Meanwhile, Sasuke is fighting a guy named Kirisame. Kirisame wears a black hat like forehead protector with the Amegakure symbol on the front of it, tied in the back of his head. He has tiny black eye irises, messy, chin-length brown hair coming out from under his hitai-ate, part of it covering his left eye. And no eyebrows. He wears a black skin-tight suit underneath all of his clothing, which also covers his mouth and nose. He wears a grey scarf around his neck, a white T-shirt over his black suit, a blue-coloured strapped suit that acts as his pants and a shirt over his grey one. He wears his weapon holster on his right thigh and black shinobi sandals.

As Kirisame is stomping the daylight out of Sasuke, his foot goes through the Uchiha, who then turns into water. Which signifies the Sasuke copied the jutsu from Kirisame.

Sasuke is now behind Kirisame, and does a string of hand seals. Snake → Ram → Monkey → Boar → Horse → Tiger. He yells, ""Katon: Gōkakyū no Jutsu (Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique)." A Medium-sized fireball then shoot from the Uchiha's mouth, right at Kirisame, who splashes into water.

Sasuke then ducks under a roundhouse kick aimed at his head, from Kirisame. When Kirisame lands, Sasuke spins around with a kunai in hand, and slashes at Kirisame's chest. Which draws some blood. "Finally," Sasuke thought.

The Uchiha then blocks a punch, and counters it with a mean kick to the face. All though, Sasuke's feet go through Kirisame's head. Sasuke then jumps over a low sweep kick, and flings a kunai at Kirisame, who blocks it with his own kunai Kirisame then does a wild slash at the Uchiha, who blocks it with another kunai.

Sasuke then jumps over Kirisame, and weaves a string of hand seals. Snake → Dragon → Rabbit → Tiger. At the peak of the jump, he is directly over Kirisame. He then yells, "Katon: Ryūka no Jutsu (Fire Release: Dragon Fire Technique)!" The Uchiha spits flames from their mouth that, like a dragon's, quickly travel forward in a straight direction. Which burns everything in, and around Kirisame.

And while that fight is going on, Sakura, who was just helping all the civilians get away from the fighting, had to dodge a volley of senbon.

A woman then appears. She says, "I am Hisame, and I'm going to kill you, and everyone you are protecting!"

Hisame is a young, quite tall, and slim kunoichi with fair skin, short light brown unkempt spiky hair, azure blue earrings, red lipstick, pupil-less black eye irises, short thin light brown eyebrows and wears a white hairband over her head, holding the hair out of the way from her eyes. She wore a pink tube top that has a dark red linen along with an open, light blue shirt, navy blue pants and ninja sandals. She wore her shuriken holster on her right leg.

Hisame then cups his hands, gathering up water. The water turns into ten shuriken, which shootout at Sakura. She yells, "Suiton Mizu no Buki (Water Release: Water Weapons)!"

Sakura dodges the shuriken, and flings a kunai towards Hisame. Which she blocks with a senbon. The Haruno then gets captured. A Water Clone that was hiding behind Sakura made a string of hand seals. Rat → Dog → Ox. The clone then yells, "Suiton: Suiben (Water Release: Water Whip)!"

A thick mist then covers the area, as Naruto appears behind Hisame. He then decapitates the woman, killing her. Sakura spins around, and sees Naruto. She asks, "So did you have to fight someone two?"

Naruto, with a shrug answers, "Did I have too? No, but I did fight, and I did kill."

Sakura looks at Naruto, and is a little creeped out. She then asks, "What about Sasuke-kun, and Kakashi-sensei? Is Shibuki okay?"

Naruto replies, "Sasuke is fine, Kakashi-sensei is with Shibuki, who is a chunin-level shinobi. He should be fine. Anyway, I hear all three of them."

Sakura looks confused, and asks, "Wait... Did you just say you can hear them?"

Naruto answers, "Yes. I had to train my hearing, because with the Kirigakure No Jutsu, both me, and my opponent can not see."

Sakura then says, "Let's go then!"

So Naruto, and Sakura rush towards Sasuke. When they get to Sasuke, he says, Hn! Let's go find Kakashi!"

Naruto replies, "I know where he is. Seeing as I can hear him."

Sasuke just gives him a questioning stare, but doesn't say a thing. He then follows Naruto.

They see Kakashi panting heavily, while protecting Shibuki, who is knocked out. The man is fighting a man with a snake-like appearance: he has very pale skin, golden eyes with slitted pupils, purple markings around his eyes and fang-like teeth. He also has pronounced cheekbones and straight waist-length black hair with some locks covering and framing his face. The man wears plain grey garbs with a black polo and pants underneath, a thick purple rope belt tied in a large knot behind his back, blue tomoe-shaped earrings, and shinobi sandals with bandages around his calves.

Kakashi asks, "What do you want... Orochimaru?"

Meanwhile, Naruto asks, "Sakura, who's Orochimaru?"

Sakura answers, "Orochimaru is one third of the Legendary Sannin. His teammates were Tsunade Senju, and Jiraiya. They were taught by the Sandaime Hokage: Hiruzen Sarutobi. He's an S-Rank missing-nin. That is all I know, sorry Naruto, Sasuke-kun!"

They then hear Kakashi, who grunts out in pain. Naruto asks, "Sasuke are you thinking what I am thinking?"

Sasuke with a smirk on his face, replies, "Hn! Of course I am, Dobe!"

Sakura says, "You're going to fight Orochimaru aren't you? Come on Naruto! Even I know you are not this stupid! Do not do this. You could die."

Naruto just gives her a fox-like grin, and covers Orochimaru and Kakashi with mist. Once Naruto steps foot in the mist he hears Orochimaru, who asks, "I wonder who this could be?"

Kakashi yells, "DON'T! You're not strong enough!"

Then Orochimaru gets bisected by Naruto, who then does a string of hand seals. Ox → Monkey → Hare → Rat → Boar → Bird → Ox → Horse → Bird → Rat → Tiger → Dog → Tiger → Snake → Ox → Ram → Snake → Boar → Ram → Rat → Yang Water → Monkey → Bird → Dragon → Bird → Ox → Horse → Ram → Tiger → Snake → Rat → Monkey → Hare → Boar → Dragon → Ram → Rat → Ox → Monkey → Bird → Yang Water → Rat → Boar → Bird. The blonde yells, "Suiton: Suiryūdan no Jutsu (Water Release: Water Dragon Bullet Technique)!" Naruto manipulates water into the shape of a dragon, which he then directed at Orochimaru . The water dragon then crashes upon Orochimaru, who dissolves into a puddle of mud.

Snakes then wrap around Naruto, as Orochimaru says, "Sen'ei Jashu (Hidden Shadow Snake Hands). Ah... You must be the Konohagakure no Kijin: Naruto Uzumaki. The Successor of Zabuza Momochi. You've grown strong, but you aren't strong enough."

Naruto then splashes into a water puddle. He then weaves a string of hand seals, as the mist dissipates. Snake → Ram → Monkey → Boar → Horse → Tiger. He yells, ""Katon: Gōkakyū no Jutsu (Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique)." Orochimaru then turns around as he is engulfed in a ball of fire.

Sasuke appears next to Naruto, with his Sharingan activated. He asks, "How did you learn that jutsu."

Naruto answers, "I've seen you do it so many times, that I just copied you."

Orochimaru smiles, and he says, "Kukukuku! I've been waiting for you Sasuke-kun."

Sasuke then makes a string of hand seals. Snake → Dragon → Rabbit → Tiger. He then yells, "Katon: Ryūka no Jutsu (Fire Release: Dragon Fire Technique)!" The Uchiha spits flames from their mouth that, like a dragon's, quickly travel forward in a straight direction. Which burns Orochimaru.

Orochimaru, then calmly walks out of the enforno. He tilts his head back, opens his mouth real wide, as hands appears from the mouth. Orochimaru then climbs out of the mouth.

The former Sannin then rushes Sasuke, with a punch. Which Sasuke has barely any time to dodge. The Uchiha then counters with a kick to the face. Orochimaru casually blocks it with his forearms, and punches Sasuke hard in the stomach.

This makes Sasuke fly away from the Sannin, who then gets caught by Naruto. Naruto then swings the blade around, and flings it as hard as he can at Orochimaru. And Once again, Orochimaru gets bisected, only for snakes to emerge from both halves of his body and pull him back together, seemingly undoing the damage he sustained.

Naruto then Shunshins to the blade, which has lodged itself into a building, and appears, standing on the handle. Sasuke, and Naruto then weaves a string of hand seals at the same time. Snake → Ram → Monkey → Boar → Horse → Tiger. They yell, ""Katon: Gōkakyū no Jutsu (Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique)." Orochimaru is then engulfed in a huge ball of fire from behind, and in front.

From inside the fireball, he says, "Kukukuku! You two have become quite strong indeed, but only one of you can have my gift. Sasuke, I'm sure you want to kill your brother, right? Well, I'm giving you that power!" He then extends his neck, and bites down on Sasuke's neck. Over the bite a seal that consists of three tomoe, similar to the Sharingan, appears. This knocks Sasuke unconscious.

Orochimaru then says, "Kukukuku! This is goodbye for now, Sasuke-kun. Kakashi-kun, He will come to me for power, and no amount of Fuinjutsu can stop this!" He disappears from view, by sinking into the ground.

Kakashi then covers his Sharingan, and says, "Sasuke, Naruto! That was reckless. If I catch you doing something like that again, you both will be reprimanded. Do you understand me!?"

Naruto says, "Hai, Kakashi-sensei!"

Sasuke replies, "Hn! I understand, Kakashi."

Kakashi, who now has an eye-smile on his face, asks, "Good. Now where is Sakura-chan?"

Sakura answers, "Right behind you, Kakashi-sensei. Sorry about them. I tried to stop them. I really did."

Her apology fell on deaf ears, as Kakashi has passed out, because of Chakra Exhaustion. Sakura then asks, "Naruto, could you please pick up Kakashi-sensei, and Shibuki-sama, and then bring them to the hospital for me?"

She then watches as Naruto picks up Kakashi, and Shibuki. While she picks up Sasuke. They then follow Sakura back to the Hospital, when she bumps into a girl with mint green hair.

She is a petite, androgynous, tan-skinned kunoichi who wore an orange clip in her short, layered mint green hair that matched her eye colour, which was also orange. Her ninja outfit consisted of a short sleeveless white midriff shirt with fishnet armour underneath, long white armlets, and fishnet shorts with a short white apron skirt over it. Her Taki hitai-ate is worn on her right arm. She also carries a cylindrical object in red wrapping on her back.

Naruto then hears a voice inside of his head. The voice then says, "She is the Jinchuuriki of Chomei: the Seven-Tailed Rhinoceros Beetle!"

Naruto mentally asks, "Kyuubi? How?"

The voice, now known as the Kyuubi, who answers, "Mortal, when you used my chakra for the first time, it allowed me to make a link that allows me to mentally talk to you."

Naruto just thinks, 'Furball.' Ignoring the roar of the Kyuubi, he watches the girl.

She gets back up to see Naruto, who obviously has Shibuki, and Kakashi over both of his shoulders. The girl then gets into a Taijutsu stance, and asks, "Who are you, and why do you have Shibuki-sama?"

Naruto answers, "Hello, Seven. I'm Naruto Uzumaki, nine. Me along with my team escorted Shibuki-sama from Konoha. When we got here the village was on fire. So we decided to help I do not know what exactly happened to your leader, but I do know that he fought an S-Rank missing-nin from Konoha, who is named Orochimaru. Anyway, who are you?"

The teen replies, "Oh... My name is Fuu! Do you want to be my friend!?"

Naruto says, "Sure I do."

Fuu gets a huge smile on her face, and drags Naruto and Sakura to her house. Well, more like she flew them to her house.
