CHAPTER 18

" Hey Naruto who is this pup?" He asked Naruto as he pointed at kurama disdainfully.

"He is the fox who was sealed inside me" Naruto said.

"Ooohh it's that guy" Fenrir said as scary smile appeared on his face.

He looked towards kurama with a mocking gaze.

"H... hello" Kurama said sweating bullets. He was really scared of the gigantic wolf in front of him. He felt that the beast in front of him was in a completely different dimension of power.

" What's your name pup?" Fenrir asked as he went near kurama.

"I..It's.... it's Kurama" Kurama said in a shaky tone. He moved back a little fearing that the wolf was going to attack him. Naruto was current looking at them and laughing.

"Haha haha don't be scared he won't bite you" Naruto said to kurama who was currently backing away from the approaching wolf.

Fenrir stopped at his track and looked at kurama in amusement. He said," You scared that I will kill you or something".

Looking at them kurama didn't say anything. Naruto slowly went near him. Now he was standing near kurama and was looking straight in his eyes. He said, " You know that I actually hated you when I heard that you were one of the reasons, the people hated me for. I was actually pissed but in time I stayed on this planet I came to understand how you were one of the nine bijuus with incredible power who are seen as nothing but weapons. You guys only got exploited. After that I only felt pity for you and your siblings. So I have made a decision".

Naruto said as he slowly lifted his left hand. Suddenly a black coloured five foot tall, long sword appeared in his hand. He suddenly disappeared from there and he was directly behind him.

*SHIIIIIING* Suddenly Kurama was bisected into two. He couldn't even think what has actually happened.

"W...what?!" Kurama could only say that before he was engulfed into a bright light.

********************************************

Currently Around the world;

Six years have gone by. Many things have happened during this period of time.

Out of the nine bijuus seven had ready been captured by the Akatsuki. Only the jinchuriki of the eight tails was not yet captured because he hid in his village which was under the protection of the raikage. They already lost one of their jinchurikis to the akatsuki. And they didn't want to loose the other one too so they restricted his movement. The akatsuki had not been able to find the jinchuriki of the nine tails or the nine tails itself. So to let of some steam they attacked a few villages and nearly wiped them away.

There had also been attacks by Uchiha Itachi on the leaf village. Itachi had killed many of the ninjas in konoha. But before he could do any devastating damage on konoha he was intercepted by Danzo and there was devastating fight between them. Itachi was able to force danzo to use Kotoamatsukami of his best friend Shisui Uchiha but he had to use his own kotoamatsukami he got from the other eye of his friend. Itachi was nearly able to kill Danzo, but Danzo told him that if he killed him now his men would release the information that the Uchiha clan was plotting to betray konoha to the entire world. Itachi who had lost everything couldn't let his clans name be tarnished so he had to let Danzo go. On that day Itachi cried a lot.

In konoha;

Tsunade had turned down the offer to become the hokage but she promised that she would not leave the village anymore. She also healed the Third hokage to his full health. After knowing that what had happened to Naruto the relationship between her and the third hokage had been damaged. She no longer spoke to him. It was same for Jiraya. She didn't even speak to him anymore.

Currently in the hokage office. An old man was sitting behind the desk. This was the current hokage of konoha Sarutobi Hiruzen. Currently he was checking some files. In front of the desk was standing a man with spiky silver hair. He wore the standard jonin clothes. His lower face was covered with a black cloth. He had his left eye covered by the forehead protector. This was Kakashi also known as the 'Copy Ninja'.

" So how are the girls' training going on under Tsunade?" Sarutobi asked Kakashi as he closed the file and looked towards him.

" I believe that both Ino Yamanaka and Sakura Haruno have been really doing great under Lady Tsunade. They are already stronger than jonins and they can become more stronger in time" Kakashi said.

" Good, very good" Sarutobi said closing his eyes.

" So there is no information about Naruto is there!" Sarutobi asked.

"No Lord hokage" Kakashi said as he shook his head.

*SIGH* Sarutobi sighed as he closed his eyes and leaned on the chair. He had been trying to find the boy for nearly eleven years but there has been no success. It was also due to this reason that he and Tsunade got into a fight and they no longer talked anymore. Although peace had prevailed in the village for sometimes he was still feeling that something bad was going to happen soon.

" Kakashi I want you to increase the patrol around the village by two times" Sarutobi said in a quite voice.

" Why is it Lord hokage? Do you believe that akatsuki is going to attack konoha this time" Kakashi asked the third hokage in a solemn voice.

" I don't know kakashi but I feel that something big is going to happen in the village and we need to be prepared for anything bad" Sarutobi said.

"All right I will go and inform them" Kakashi bowed and disappeared from there.

After that Sarutobi bussied himself in the paper works.

*****************************************

In a hidden location near the southern part of the land of fire;

We could see a woman with crimson eyes, fair skin and the characteristic red hair of the Uzumaki clan which she wore in a unusual hairstyle: Her hair was short and slight on the right side, while longer and straight on the left side. She wore brown narrow glasses, which had a hidden serrated blade hidden in them. He outfit consisted of a lavender uniform that exposed her navel, short black shorts, and long black thigh high stockings with black sandals. Her chest, neck and arms were covered with bite marks that resulted from people biting her to heal, and all of which were hidden by her uniform. She had a curvaceous figure. Her name was Karen Uzumaki one of the subordinates and experiment candidates of Orochimaru.

She was quitly lying on her bed in her room. She was currently thinking how much things have changed . She had been orochimaru's subordinate for quite some times after he took her in for her bloodline and it's properties. She become stronger throughout the years.

"When will my prince charming come and take me away from this god forsaken place?" She said to herself. Orochimaru had done all sorts of experiments on her due to her unique healing abilities, Some of which had been quite painful. She wanted to escape from this place but couldn't due to the heavy guarding.

She sighed and turned around to sleep.
