The Roles Are Reversed
A snap of his fingers, a small flame erupts from his thumb, like it was a lighter. He brought the flicker of ire to his cigarette and lights it, and waves his thumb to dispel the flame whilst taking a short drag of the cancerous stick. With an exhale, he gazes to his partner.
"So, Itachi... you've seen everything my Angelo Units have gathered. You must admit your brother is now permanently damaged goods. He's not only been granted Orochimaru's accursed Juinjutsu, but he's now accepted the poisonous power of the fox."
Itachi said nothing, except munch his box of assorted Pocky.
"Madara's poison was cleansed from the world, but it's only one half. The rest of the poison comes from those in power sealing the Bijuu into living beings in attempts of wielding weapons to slaughter and murder countless innocents. The fox was the strongest of the nine Bijuu, but also the most sadistic and manipulative. And with your brother's unstable mind when you mind fucked him with the Tsukuyomi, he's too dangerous to let live, as well as the other eight Jinchuuriki."
"I know," he snaps.
"Then... you truly understand that to bring a form of peace and prevent super weapons from being created again, the death of the nine Jinchuuriki and the banishing of their demons into the Un-Dimension is required. And with the Bijuu forever out of reach, and the Juubi's shell kept imprisoned in the center of our moon, the world of the Shinobi will change forever. It's time Gensou joined the rest of the world."
Itachi finished his snack, and carelessly tosses it aside.
"I know, Naruto," the only sane Uchiha of the entire planet says, gazing at the forsaken Namikaze.
Uzumaki-Namikaze Naruto looks out the corner of his eyes, and sees Itachi staring vehemently back. Finishing his cancerous stick of death, he lets it drop to the ground and the remaining lit is snuffed out by the heel of his boot.
"Let us go," said Naruto as he got up, leaving a few bills on the table for the waitress' tip.
"We're heading to Konoha then?"
A dark smile crossed Naruto's face. "Yes. Those worthless fools are looking for their forsaken lost son of the Yondaime... so I might as well entertain them before we eliminate Danzo. After all, Danzo is one of the poisons that must be cleansed... and to avenge Yahiko."
"So, I'll go when you give the signal?"
"Yes. You'll understand the signal, and when you see it you and Kisame when he returns from pissing in the toilet will barge in and attack the village with the aid of the Angelo Units. That cesspool needs to be purified."
And Naruto walks away, leaving Itachi behind with his Akatsuki cloak. The last Uchiha sighs to himself, and waits for Kisame while their partner goes to Konoha by himself.
"Where the fuck is Kisame?"
=0=0=
Sun-kissed yellow blond hair with the single long lick of scythe-shaped hair that was as red as human blood defying gravity, whisker birth marks adorning his cheeks, and his right hand was clad in a black glove. The wrists were wrapped by silver bracelets and it had twin red lines running around its center. The pants of his were leather-made and a dark red color. His two shirts were both a jersey style with an alternate sleeve shirt; the undershirt was almost form-hugging with the right sleeve half-length and the left sleeve ending to the wrist, and the jersey fishnet worn over it was two sizes larger. Strange runes embrace his right forearm, the strange markings on the artistic tattoo unintelligible unless one understood true alchemy.
He remembered the village he abandoned. He couldn't wait to destroy the village, to cleanse his soul of the demons that flourished in the one place that bathed in all seven sins of humanity. He chuckles, when he came to the village from its blind area. On top his father's head on the mountain, he smiles darkly.
"And soon, the worst of humanity will burn."
Taking out a small jar, he unscrews the lid and applies the flesh-tone makeup to cover his birth marks on his cheeks before jumping to the ground below. Elsewhere, inside the office, Senju Tsunade was busy looking over the paperwork, but she was also alternating reading reports given to her by an ANBU operative delivering said documents from her teammate, Jiraiya. The Godaime Hokage sets everything down, and sighed.
The village went to complete hell one it was discovered everything those ignorant bastards had their blinders torn from their eyes. Three years ago, the village's reputation went down the shithole. Uchiha Sasuke was discovered to be the true prisoner holding the Kyuubi sealed away until the unstable boy, already inflicted by Orochimaru's Cursed Seal, was manipulated into accepting the fox's poisonous and volatile chakra. Then, he abandoned the village seeking power from Orochimaru. And then when the other clients from three years ago spread word Konoha treated the son of Minato and Kushina like a pariah, the money, the missions, all went elsewhere. People outside the village now began to avoid Konoha. The Fire Daimyō had started trusting them less and less. And to make things worse, Konoha ninja barely got any high missions since many countries saw them as the same garbage, and treated them as such. The same treatment her godson was given by this rat hole of a ninja village was now experienced by the rest of the world.
Three years was spent trying to chase down and locate her neglected godchild, but he couldn't be found anywhere. Eventually, she had to bear with the inevitable and accept that he was forever gone. After all, he left the village at such a young age feeling neglect and total isolation from human society... he probably died on the streets of some unnamed town, village, or in the wild somewhere. Elsewhere, Naruto was walking through the village, looking about as the fools that isolated him from society went on their business without a care in the world, as if he had never existed. He kept himself from breaking out in a cold aura of darkness. They'll soon pay. He stops when he spotted a quaint little open-air ramen shop, and decides to sit down behind the cloth.
"Hello, how may I help you?" said a young woman with her hair tied up neatly, carrying a serving ladle.
Naruto looks to the young woman, enrapturing her with his dazzling emerald eyes, and his well-toned physique exposed due to his fishnet shirts he was wearing.
"A small bowl of miso please."
She shakes herself from his strangely hypnotic eyes and grabs a clean bowl and serves her customer the bowl, and sets a clean set of chopsticks down. Breaking them apart, he eats his meal quietly. Five minutes later, Naruto sets the chopsticks on top the empty bowl.
"That was delicious, miss," Naruto said as he stands.
The woman takes the bowl and takes it to the nearby sink. And when she turns around to tell him how much it would cost or the bowl, she stared at his right hand that was raised. All except for the index and middle finger were closed in.
"Thank you for the meal."
BANG!
A beam of energy shot from his fingers, like a laser piercing her skull and she collapsed with a loud clatter. Her father heard the commotion, and shouted in horror seeing his daughter dead with a bloody hole in her forehead.
"NO! AYAME!"
He looks up, and sees a dark grin from the blond-haired young teen, before he too was killed. The commotion was heard and that is what the curious villagers saw; Naruto firing his laser shot into the man's skull. Naruto turns around, and cracks his hand. The right hand explodes into a blaze of energy which he sweeps before him. Explosions erupt, thus alerting Konoha something was wrong. Screams echoed, but Naruto took it all in with rapture.
"Yes, scream... run in fright at the hopelessness you see!" he shouts, as a crackle of energy runs down his right arm, the runes lightning.
He slams his outstretched palm down to the ground and sends a powerful shockwave of energy to spread out all around with the glow of alchemy runes lighting around him with a glow of reddish purple. The destruction leveled three blocks from the epicenter. Buildings were in ruins, many lives young and old were slain by the destructive alchemy attack.
And from their position, Kisame and Itachi begin to walk into Konoha. The signal was given.
Amidst the carnage, Naruto continues to smile. He hears the whistle of weapons flying in the air, but he does nothing. The sudden barrier that surrounded him rejected the kunai and shuriken, and fall harmlessly to the ground.
"So, how does it feel to see the destruction I can perform, worthless cesspool ninja?"
He spotted the famed Hatake Kakashi in the crowd with the ANBU. He also spotted the former Fire Temple Guardian, Sarutobi Asuma, with his trademark trench knives.
"It only proves how much this cesspool needs to rot into death and be purified of the sins they bathe in. For so long I have relished in the dreams of destroying my inner demons this village thrusted upon me with their loathing hatred. Hated for something I had nothing to do with..."
He giggled a bit.
"So, how's the Kyuubi Jinchuuriki?"
He blocks a katana effortlessly by simply grabbing the blade, and grabbing the head of a woman with purple hair wearing a cat mask, his hand glows. The next, her lifeless body collapsed. The face was smoking, mask molecularly destroyed with the last trace of blood already boiled into steam from his energy hand.
"Yūgao!" he hears the elder Sarutobi shout in shock. He could see them tense, not believing how simple he had killed the masked ninja.
"So, Captain Inu," he says, staring directly into Kakashi's eye and the Sharingan eye he uncovered behind his hitai-ate, "it's been eleven years..."
Kakashi's eyes narrowed.
"Maybe it would be better if you took off your make-up, Naruto," spoke a familiar voice.
From the still hanging smoke of the destruction wrought, the forms of Uchiha Itachi and Hoshigaki Kisame emerged and stand on either side of the teen.
"I guess, Itachi."
He stands there, letting Itachi wipe the make-up off his cheeks, and reveal his whisker birthmarks.
"These fools won't stop us anyway."
Kisame grins, looking to Gai. "I want the green bastard, so I can chop his legs off." He puts a hand on Samehada.
"Naruto?" whispered Kakashi.
"Yes, Hatake... I heard rumors about Konoha wanting to make up for their mistakes and ease the heavy guilt constricting their souls by finding the son of Namikaze Minato and Uzumaki Kushina and beg forgiveness for the foolish shit they did to me all those years ago. So, I decided to come here and respond in a justified fashion... leveling three blocks of the village and slaying hundreds in a few seconds."
He takes out a cigarette, and using his Flame Lighter technique, lights his joint and blows some smoke after a quick drag of the tobacco.
"So, why don't my so-called godparents come down here so I can say hello?"
He was rewarded with Tsunade and Jiraiya merging in their Shunshin. With a snap of his fingers, Naruto generated a wind that blew away all the smoke lingering from the debris.
"Naruto... you're alive..."
"Thanks to Nagato, one of my few surviving family members of my mother's clan..."
Jiraiya stared hard at Naruto, Minato and Kushina's son. There was no way they would have ever approved of their son acting in such a way; destructive, and downright dark. "What are you doing here? Why? Why did you do what you did?"
"Simple... this cesspool of a village deserves everything for the sins they did, and in turn, allowed their offspring to do to me. Every single last human in this shithole will die... but tell me; how was it feeling all the pain that I felt? I may have been hidden for so long but I heard all through my spies, how the village's reputation went to hell, and how the so-called crown prince of Konoha turned out to be the very thing they thought existed inside me... by the way, how's those worthless kids that were with Sasuke-kun's generation? Oh, right... half of them died trying to take Sasuke back to Konoha who fled to that snake in the grass."
Gai was never one to anger easily, but the jab to the loss of his two students Neji and Lee struck a barb in his heart. Likewise, Asuma and the woman next to him, Kurenai, were also angry. Their students Shikamaru, Chōji, and Kiba were killed in a desperate act of stopping the Uchiha from reaching Orochimaru.
"How the mighty have fallen... but it's for the best. The so-called prince and the pride of the village turned out to be the very thing that keeps a demonic beast imprisoned... while the son of the village's greatest Kage in its history was ignored, pretending that he never existed, and treated like he was the beast itself. Foolish. Just foolish..."
With another snap of his fingers, glowing golden circles and runes burned in the air. In flashes of light, strange angelic-looking monsters armed with strange armor and a large jousting lance land, and fold their strange mechanical-looking wing along their left sides which acted like secondary armor.
"Raze this village to the ground. Leave no one alive, not even the infants... JUST KILL THEM ALL!"
They take to arms and the Angelo Units attack. More alchemic runes emerge and summon more of the monstrous super soldiers of Naruto's brilliant creation, all the while Naruto cackles, enjoying the sounds of destruction as the Angelo Units strike important areas of the village.
Kisame blocks an attack and swings Samehada, but Gai evaded the seep.
"Sorry Green Beast, but your fight is with me. This time, I'll win!"
Itachi stares on, right at Kakashi.
"If Konoha had simply acknowledged Naruto, none of this would ever happen... but, it's too late to change everything..."
"So, you brainwashed Naruto," Kakashi jabs coldly.
Itachi then cracks a smile, and a laugh.
"Brainwash? Why we did no such thing... once we finally eliminated that poison that was my can's founder, Madara, we reverted back to the way the Akatsuki once was, with a change: the destruction of the Jinchuuriki and the beasts that makes them super weapons to power-hungry fools that are the Gokage of Gensou. And Naruto will help us lead this continent to join the rest of the world... to destroy the poison and bring true peace..."
"By killing innocent people?" Kakashi interjects.
"A small price to pay, but worth it once the origin of the Bijuu and the creation of Jinchuuriki has been cleansed from the face of the planet. Ultimately, the burning of Konoha's poisoned roots is Naruto's mission. We are simply his partners."
And Naruto stares at his godparents. They were never there for him. Just like Konoha, they left him to rot in loneliness and isolation.
"To begin the path of peace, one must sever the ties of hatred and purify the poison it spreads with simple touch," Naruto cryptically quotes, "Only then can humanity flourish with the elimination of geo stigma."
"N-Naruto... what the hell are you saying?" Jiraiya whispers, while also preparing to summon Ma and Pa, Tsunade beside him readying her strength.
"It is simple, old man. I am going to fulfill a prophecy and lead mankind beyond the shinobi era... the era of the shinobi is the reason the planet is dying. And as long as they have Jinchuuriki and the power of the tailed beasts as their weapons of mass destruction, chaos and war is all future generations will be born into."
Energy crackles over his body.
"Now... you two can do me this one favor."
He fires an energy blast from his hand.
"Die."
