Chapter 1

Troupe x Wave x Mayhem

In the land of Wave in the Elemental Nations was facing a crisis against a cruel ruler. His name is Gato and he is the head of the great Gato Shippings but the truth is that he controls the company through the underhanded means. He is feared by the people and those that work for him for his ruthless personality and his dark deeds performed on those around him. He even hires rogue shinobi to do his bidding if the price is right. But today was especially dangerous day for a man in wave named Tazuna had hired some shinobi to help him by protecting him while he was building a bridge to the main land. This would cut into Gato's business allowing them to finally to rebuild their economy that has plummeted over the years.

However Konoha had learned of the deceit and while they were going to work out a new idea they understood why he did it considering their economy had plummeted over time. So now instead of Team 7 consisting of Sakura Haruno, Sasuke Uchiha, and Naruko Uzumaki Namikaze there was also Team 8 consisting of Hinata Hyuuga, Kiba Inuzuka, and Shino Aburame and their teachers Kakashi Hatake and Kurenai Yuuhi. From the groups, Kakashi knew that his team needed the most work in the sense of teamwork. Not because they didn't work well together when the situation called for it but because their personalities are always clashing. Sasuke believed everything the village believed about him being the greatest and planned on taking his vengeance against Itachi for murdering most of their clan. Only a handful survived that day including his mother but it got worse when he found out his mother did not care about what Itachi did and only wanted to live in peace. He considered her weak and planned on taking over the clan soon and race after Itachi in this sense.

Sakura was worse than him at times because she either spent her time hitting on him and trying to get a date out of him. Where as other times, she is more interested in clothes and fashion ideas instead of training when she has a chance. Thus making her the weakest of the team and her generation. Plus she was always shouting at Naruko for trying to steal her Sasuke when really she had no interest in him and even if he does have an interest in her he would have to get past his father and that was nearly impossible. Another thing is that Naruko's brother Menma would sooner kill the arrogant Uchiha then let him become part of their family.

Naruko on the other hand was more focused on what needed to be done for their mission and what is required. Her senses were stretched to the point that she could pick up the faintest sounds that come by her. Sadly, she was also distracted by the fact her brother is on a different team with two people that at least took their field work more seriously than her teammates. Kakashi barely trained her especially considering he focused most of his time on Sasuke and training him exclusively while fainting that she needed to work on her control. But that was the funniest thing considering she do the water walk exercise while Sasuke and Sakura can't even climb a tree yet.

Arriving in Wave they encountered heavy resistance from a missing nin named Zabuza but Kakashi and Kurenai managed to corner him and almost kill him until a hunter nin appeared. From there they took him away leaving Kakashi passed out and Kurenai carrying him and sending another request for backup since they were going to need it at this point.

While this is going on in the far distance at an abandoned church in the middle of the forest was someone sitting on a stone. He had a candle next to him and he was reading his book while having his face covered in darkness. This man had a long coat with fur on it on his wrists and his neck with an inverted cross on the back, on his forehead was a cross with a circle going through it, and he had it open showing he was not wearing a shirt underneath his coat at this moment. He is wearing long black pants, black boots, and on his pants he had white belts wrapping around his leg.

Reading his book no one could tell what he was thinking or what is face looked like other than him having blond hair that was spiked and dark blue eyes staring into the darkness but they had tints of black in them.

Below the man was two others both blond themselves but one was wearing a green and white jumpsuit and had his hair slicked back. Another was wearing a purple outfit and he had his hair flat topped. Turing their heads they heard heel shoes walking into the room and saw a woman wearing a purple business suit showing off her cleavage walking into the room. She was not wearing a bra from what they could see and from there they saw that she was wearing a short skirt.

"Pakunoda good to see you!" The boy with flat top hair was the first to greet her with a smile on his face.

"Good to see you again too Shalnark, you too Phinks." The man in the jumpsuit, Phinks grunted,

"You are late." She looked at her watch,

"On time from what I can see." He looked down,

"We were supposed to arrive ten minutes earlier that includes the rest of you." Turning behind them they saw two more people entered the room, one had long black hair and was wearing a tight black top and bottoms and some foot wrappings. He had a sadistic grin on his face and smiled at the group while showing off his bloodlust to the room. Next to him was a silver hair man wearing a red jacket and bottoms that were leather made. His red eyes stared at them and he had a small lazy smile on his face.

"Hey Envy, Ban you guys going with use too?" The two smiled at one of the more excited members of the Troupe.

"Yeah we are."

"Huh, I don't care what is going on I'm just hoping the boss gives me something to kill soon." Everyone saw the bloodlust in Envy's eyes and how he was eying their boss wanting the order.

But a hand landed on his head,

"Know your place fool. The boss hasn't given us our orders or told us what we are stealing yet." Out of the shadows came a dark skinned man with gray hair that spiked up in the back and he is wearing a bear pelt belt and coat over his shoulders. He had dark grey eyes and was smiling wildly at the idea getting lose and start to kill things around him in annoyance.

"I'm reporting for duty boss. So like Envy said what's our target this time? I'm itching for some action." Shalnark laughed,

"Easy there Uvo, Feitan's group won't be arriving until this afternoon so we have to wait until then." Uvo snorted,

"Great whole half day of waiting." But he smiled, "Well if it isn't Shizuku." Now in the room was a woman with short black hair, wearing a tight black top, jeans, and shoes. Her eyes were covered by her glasses and she had wine red eyes along with wearing a golden cross around her neck.

"Hello." She kept her blank face and was staring ahead.

"Has the new replacement showed up yet?" Shalnark raised his shoulders to Pakunoda's question,

"Don't know you might want to ask Machi when she comes because she is the one that was supposed to contact them."

Everyone started talking a bit while their leader was still sitting by his candle reading his book. Not even bothering to greet anyone yet. But if anyone could feel the slightest chakra flux they would have noticed his chakra was slowly rising as time was passing by.

Town of Wave

On the outskirts of town were four people: One was a samurai looking man with a sword at his side. He had his hands inside of his kimono, another was a short man with black hair, pale skin, and beedy black eyes. He was wearing a mouth covering outfit with skulls and flames on them and in the darkest form of black possible. Next to them was a large man with long earlobes, wearing a blue overalls and a white shirt, and he had stitches on his face and some parts of his body. He was by far the largest of the group being the size of a small car. The final person had pink hair and was carrying a tan sack over her shoulder and wearing tight outfit around her body and some leg warmings.

"I wonder," started the samurai man, "How long has it been since the Troupe was assembled like this?" He put his hand to his chin and looked at the shortest of the group, "Feitan you know?" The small man turned his head and whispered,

"Three years…. Six months…. but two have changed numbers 4 and numbers 8 are different."

"Machi," the tall man asked the girl with pink hair, "Do you think 4 will show up today for this meeting?"

"Don't ask me. I haven't the fogiest idea."

"Weren't they your responsibility?" She rolled her head,

"I just told them the time and place and how important the meeting was." Feitan gained a small glare,

"I… Do not like…. 4… why does the boss let them get away…. With their habits?"

"Probably for their skills." He rubbed his chest while Feitan grunted,

"Skills?"

"Yeah I mean that bloodline the boss stole for them is versatile with it making them a force of nature in their own right. They would be difficult to deal with for all of us."
"Are you saying…. The boss is scared… of 4? Watch yourself." He was glaring down the samurai with great intensity.

"That's not what I meant, calm down." The giant snorted,

"You give them too much credit, you need to stop blowing their ego up." The samurai scoffed,

"Talk is as cheap as ever." The two walked in silence for a bit before the giant swung his fist at the samurai who blocked it with his sheathed sword.

"Shut up, or this is what happens Nobunaga." Nobunaga smiled,

"You were talking as much as I was Franklin." The two started a sparring match in the middle of the street freaking the civilians out. Machi sighed,

"Here we go again." Feitan turned away,

"Leave them… they are just playing." Machi and him continued knowing that they would both catch up to them at some point.

"So do you know why the boss called us all here?"

"We are thieves.. I suspect he wants us to steal something."

"That much I knew but I mean why Wave? This place is a shit hole ever since Gato took over."

"Not sure… but the boss has his reasons. Our job… is to follow… orders."

"Yeah I know but still there must be something special here if he wants us to come to this place."

"True… oh they stopped fighting." They saw Franklin and Nobunaga are coming up to them leading to them making it to the HQ for the day. All were gathered in the room listening to Uvogin yelling at Franklin and Nobunaga for being late and not showing up at the appropriate time.

Eventually the day wind down to the point that the sun had set and now they were waiting for the last member to show up.

"They aren't coming." Phinks was annoyed by 4 blowing off orders.

"The sun…. has set."

"Damn them the next time I see them I'll tear them apart." Uvogin was already maiming this guy for what he did.

The candle went out and then the boss shut his book and they heard a small laugh from the other side of the room.

"Oh my Uvo, hearing that I'm terrified. Maybe you can bring me closer to death then?" Out of the shadows came a man with long black hair, black eyes, and wearing a white suit with a white hat on his head. He smiled at the group,

"Kimblee!" Uvogin jumped ready to rip the man to pieces.

"I guess you are running late huh?" Shalnark tried to lessen the tension in the room but he could see everyone was staring him down at this point.

"I didn't think you would show." Kimblee smiled at Machi,

"Why wouldn't I? The Boss ordered me to show up but I just decided to take my time getting here. Especially considering I find things more interesting when I do things on my own clock instead of someone else."

"Okay boss everyone is here." Out of the shadows stood the blond leader and he looked about eighteen making him an imposing figure. He was blank in the face but it changed after he formed a small smile on his face.

"So boss what are we stealing this time?" The boss smiled,

"We are stealing the Gato fortune and burning his business to the ground." The group gained an eager look on their faces and were ready for this.

"So boss does that mean that we can kill everyone that gets in our way?" The boss smiled again,

"Of course Uvogin but remember we need Gato to die before we can say we are done." Feitan remembered something and decided to voice this to their leader,

"Boss… I heard rumors that there are some shinobi….. in the village that hail from Konoha." Their leader showed no outward expression and just turned to the group,

"You all remember the rule, no killing major village shinobi is that clear? We don't need their attention on us just yet." The group nod their head and then he continued, "As for the mission itself we are splitting into three teams. I will remain here unless someone needs my help immediately while the rest of you are split into groups of four. One will head to the bridge to find this Tazuna and deal with his attackers. The second group will head to his mansion and slaughter all of his guards and free anyone that is of no use to us on top of stealing everything in his vault and stashes of money. Finally the final group will head to the docks and kill and steal everything there that is worth something."

"Yes boss do you have teams set up though?" Machi was the first to make the statement because some of them worked well with some but at the same time worked better with some specific members.

"Yes the mansion team shall consist of yourself, Phinks, Envy, and Franklin. Franklin will use his chakra bullets to eliminate the majority of them outside the building and those that rush at the gates when you are attacking the place. Phinks will head into the building and start killing those that get in his way while Envy turns into different monsters and creatures to help clear out the inside of the building. Finally, you yourself Machi will assist Phinks in the interior and start using your abilities to deal with anyone that tries to run."

"Yes boss."

"Next the dock attackers are going to be Nobunaga, Shizuku, Pakunoda, and Shalnark. Shalnark will use his ability to find information on the goods and then send the message back to the rest of you. Then Pakunoda will use her weapon skills to take down the one's farthest from the group while Nobunaga will deal with anyone that gets too close and finally Shizuku your job is to clean up the mess making it seem nothing is wrong. But if you notice some of them using chakra use Blinky to absorb it into the vacuum cleaner and use later."

"Got it boss." Shalnark and his team nod their heads and were ready for some action themselves.

"Finally Uvogin, Kimblee, Ban, and Feitan you are all to head to the bridge and deal with anyone that is there that is not wearing a Konoha headband. The worst you can do to the group is maybe break their bones or beat them until they out cold. Keep this in mind and be ready for whatever comes your way."

Everyone nodded their heads and got ready for their jobs and the boss said,

"Go." Everyone took off in different directions leaving the Boss in his room alone and thought,

"Are you here my little siblings? How far have you come since my departure?"

He leaned his head back remembering his time as Naruto Uzumaki Namikaze, Jounin for the village and what many considered the future Hokage in the making. But he honestly didn't care for the titles that were given to him. More in the sense that everything that revolved around titles lead to arrogance and people over estimating their own powers. He hated this fact and only desired to find his own place in this world. All he ever wanted to do is go where he pleases, kill who he wants, and steal what he wants and use everything to his advantage. Opening his book again he had his candle light up again and he read the page that gave him the most joy: a picture of the Uchiha Sharingan but in its transformed state.

Naruto's book was special, it was an Uzumaki bloodline ability where he could manifest his chakra into create weapons of his own design. For the most part he only had two weapons he had in his arsenal but the other weapon is more for when in direct confrontation and didn't have time use the book. The book is special, he called it the Bandit's secret and it was capable of stealing bloodlines from people around him. But the cost of doing something this amazing was that he had to clear four hurdles:

He had to see the ability or bloodline in works himself

He had to know how the ability works by asking the person who is using it

The person's hand must touch the cover of his book that has a handprint on it

All of this must be done in under an hour

This ability of his was considered dangerous in a right sense but he noticed the restrictions on the ability. First he had to keep the book open to the chapter that had the power he wanted. Then he can only use it while the book is open otherwise the power disappears alongside the book. But he didn't mind this drawback because he mastered the art of single hand-signs in his time being a shinobi and learning more about his book's powers. It soon lead to him gaining the powers of the Uchiha and Hyuuga while he was wondering around the village. While he was worried when they died they would take their powers with them but he saw that once he steals an ability it stays in the book no matter what and that even the original owner dying doesn't change this. Naruto got excited about this and started looking around for more people with bloodlines to add to his book for the future. One of his greatest accomplishments is that he learned: Ice Release, Bone Release, Explosion Release, Typhoon Release, Magnet Release, Lava Release, and Steam Release. He stole each of these abilities and more from different nations and in doing so left the original wielders unknowing of this change. For the most part, Naruto had a ton of other abilities that he stole over his time from different nations but never used them due to how odd they were and how dangerous they could be if they are discovered.

But even so he had his secondary weapon to fall back on if things turn bad and he can even use his own ninja skills that he had while he was jounin. He mastered hand to hand combat, strategy, and even had a variety of different elemental moves that he could use on his own. For the most part his alignments are Wind, Water, and Lightning but he could use the other elements if push comes shove.

Naruto knew he was a Kage level shinobi that the world has never seen before and he knew that his power was envied if people knew whom he was. That is the reason he left his village when they were trying to force him to take a student and breed with the many women in the village. His parents blocked this demand and he was happy about the result as a whole.

Naruto looked at the Sharingan and then closed his eyes before opening them to take the form of a biohazard symbol,

"Time for the Troupe to make its scene."

Docks

Nobunaga and his team were looking out at the docks and saw that at least six major ships were ported and there had to be at least a hundred men seen around the docks. Shalnark had already got a puppet to infiltrate the grounds to find any information about this whole place and if there is someone worth noticing. All they had to do was sit there and wait for his information and know how they are going to move through the village.

After a few minutes Shalnark appeared next to his team and smiled,

"Well the boss was right about one thing there are about 100 people guarding the docks at this moment. From what I guess, each are about the same level as any bandit out in the world. More in the sense they have the same vicious streak as most of the people and are easy hires for anyone who has money. Personally, I think this would be too easy for us to clear out the docks and ransacking the ships that are nearby. From what I can guess they are guarded by some powerful chunin level people at least but like I said before mostly bandits."

"So they are not shinobi then?" Shalnark shook his head at Nobunaga's question,

"No just your typical bandit with some basic understanding of chakra and thinking it makes them a badass."

"I see well then shall we get started then I'm itching for some action." Nobunaga stood up with the rest of the team ready for this fight. Pakunoda used her chakra to summon a silver weapon into her hand and pushed her chakra into the weapon.

"I'll handle the archers that are on the ships and on the roofs." Shalnark smiled,

"I'll use my puppet to kill some of the men around us so hopefully we can sow confusion into the group and start a riot in the bandits."

"I guess I'll have Blinky out and start smashing some people that come my way then." Nobunaga smiled,

"Yeah and my job is pretty simple of cutting down everyone that gets in our way and hopefully getting the chance to kill the people in the ship."

Everyone nodded their head and jumped off the nearby roof and landed in the docking area where two guards saw Nobunaga and Pakunoda approaching,

"Hey who the fuck are you two!" Instead of answering Nobunaga was past the men their heads flew into the sky while his sword clicked shut.

"Too easy." He continued forward ignoring the archer that took aim after seeing the guards killed. But he felt something going through his head and he was sent crashing to the ground from the roof. Pakunoda quickly turned her weapon onto another rooftop and fired it after pulling the sliver trigger piercing the man's head and sending him falling off the roof.

They proceeded into the main docking area and saw three large ships that are docked and starting to unload their cargo and they had three people standing overlooking the whole thing. One was a black hair man with a black shirt and brown pants and having sharp fangs in his mouth. Another one was wearing a green jumpsuit and was short and bald and the last one was a fat man wearing a green shirt and jeans.

"So those the three?" Pakunoda nodded her head,

"Yeah from what I can sense they are about chunin in chakra level but from skills there is no telling at this point. I'm betting on they are strong together but they look like more a team tactic. In this case, we need to kill one of them and then we can start picking off the rest of them with ease."

"Alright then lets get this done then." Nobunaga and Pakunoda appeared in front of the three thugs and they narrowed at them.

"Who the fuck are you?" The man with shaggy hair was glaring at them and had his fangs coming out more. The short man in the jumpsuit scanned their chakra levels and saw that they were at least jounin level at the most. This was going to be difficult for them more in the sense that their fourth partner was somewhere else. Maybe distracted by someone that was nearby from what he would guess.

"Names Nobunaga and this Pakunoda. We are here to execute you on the orders of the boss." Nobunaga crouched down with his sword at his side and was ready to leap into action. But first he was going to make sure his chakra field was ready. Doing this would ensure the minute they entered his range he would cut them down with ease. Sadly, he knew that Pakunoda could easily kill any of them with one well placed chakra bullet through the skull or using her own physical strength to even the odds.

"Tch, I'm Rabid Dog asshole and I'm going to tear you to shreds!" He grew his fangs out and added chakra to them. Nobunaga smirked,

"Bring it then I'll put you down in a second." The minute the dog man raced into his range he already unsheathed his sword and with one quick swing decapitated him before sheathing his sword again. "Too easy." The fat man smiled,

"You might have gotten the drop on him but that same move won't work on us." The man motioned for his partner to take the first move but the minute he did one of the bandits behind him impaled the fat guy through the head. Taking his sword out he quickly aimed it at the short man who used his chakra enhanced hair to pierce him. The man collapsed to the ground with a thud and showed that he had some kind of red stick with wings hanging out of his neck.

"What the!" Behind him he saw that someone with blond hair smiling at him.

"Sorry I guess you were too fast for my puppet to get to." He then felt something go through his head and collapsed to the ground scaring the shit out of the thugs. They couldn't believe it, the mercenaries that were higher pay then them were killed with such ease it was ridiculous. Nobunaga smiled and flared his aura at everyone while having his sword ready to swing,

"Now I get to have some more fun." Pakuoda sighed and using her chakra changed her revolver into a new weapon that took both hands to hold and with great ease was mowing down people with a hail of bullets. Shalnark only found another person to make his puppet and force them to start killing as well.

Shizuku on the other hand was in one of the storage areas and she saw that there was a lot of stolen merchandise there that the boss would want. So summoning her trusty blue vacuum with eyes she started using her chakra to suck up all the merchandise into the vacuum to be released later. But while this is going on she noticed someone was behind her and knew that it was one of the mercs. He was hiding beneath the earth hoping to sneak up on her but she was not easily fooled by this action.

When they appeared behind her and threw a punch she ducked underneath the attack and slammed her vacuum into the side of their head sending them to the ground with a thud. She saw it was a large obese man wearing a speedo and looked like poop. She lifted the vacuums noozle again and slammed it into the person's head until they were nothing more than a puddle of blood. Then she sucked up the mess and continued on with cleaning out the storage area.

So far the deck clean up was going smoothly and within a few hours they were going to have all the merchandise they needed to keep the boss happy for the next few days.

Manor

Franklin hands released holes at the end of the tips and was firing chakra bullets at everyone in the front of the house. Phinks, Machi, and Envy were rushing through the crowd and heading into the manor knowing that the big guy could handle minor thugs.

Upon entering the mansion they saw that the place was expansive and that it would take forever to clear out of potential problems.

"Alright so first person to clear their part of the mansion and find the little bastard's private vault wins?" Machi sighed and Envy grinned,

"Sure Phinks." Envy laughed,

"Prepared to lose fool!" Phinks snorted and soon everyone took off in different directions with Machi taking the bottom floor, Envy taking the east wing, and Phinks taking the West wing.

Machi was moving through the halls with her special chakra stitches in hand and ready for action. Two thugs appeared from around the corner and charged her, leading to them getting tied up by her chakra stitches and soon with a quick tug sliced them to pieces. This lead to her then walking farther into the building. More in the sense, she had dispelled her stitches and now was fighting hand to hand with the rest of the thugs. They were swinging their weapons at them but they were too slow to catch her. She ducked under their strikes and punched them into the walls or slammed her foot into the side of their head. Leading to their skull exploding from the power she was generating from her strike. Finally growing more tired of dealing with these idiots she summoned chakra scapels and with ease started cutting them down with greatest ease. With her speed she was blurring through the halls and moving onto the next target while the previous person's head was falling off their shoulders.

By the end of the hall she turned to see about forty people dead on her end. She sighed and continued through the halls looking for any room that could possibly be Gato's room. Sadly, none of the rooms were but she did find the basement and down there she saw something that disgusted her.

It was a torture chamber where she could see it was meant to torture not just people for information but to mutilate the bodies of the women. Hell she saw several corpses in the corner ranging from middle age to as young as 17 and this made her angry. But she heard whimpering and in the corner she saw a cell with some women that had not been tortured yet. The youngest was eight years old and she was terrified of the woman with pink hair and wondering what she was going to do to them.

Walking up to the cage she pushed chakra into her hand and ripped the cage door off and sighed.

"You are all free to go. Head out the front door and my friend will protect you while we mop up the rest of the people inside." They hesitated at first but they eventually ran out the cage but one of the women turned to her,

"Thank you but if you see a woman with black hair and that is mind dead please, she is my daughter. She was raped multiple times by Gato and his men and I fear that she is either gone mentally or she is unreachable. If you can't save her please make it quick." Machi keep a blank face but said,

"I promise I will. After all I will never turn my back on people who suffer and I could do something to help them."

"Thank you." Once the woman left and she was sure they were out of range, Machi finally glared at the wall and her eyes glowed with unreal power. Her body was covered in a dark green and black aura that flared around the room terrifying anyone that could sense or see it. Turning to the wall she screamed,

"Damn you all!" She threw her fist into the wall causing the wall to give way and soon the entire wall was gone. The destruction left a tunnel leading to the outside of the mansion.

Phinks had just snapped another man's neck with one hand and twisted another's head all the way around.

He felt Machi's chakra and knew that something angered her and knew best to stay out of her way. For the most part, the group knew that something that upset her meant they were not going to live for very long. Plus with the shaking of the entire mansion he was sure that she used her special enhanced strength to cause that damage. Never knew where she got it from but from the way the Boss tells them to drop the question he learned to not try.

Turning around he saw three more thugs with swords and sighed,

"You guys really are getting annoying. I can't stand around and deal with you losers." He quickly dashed at them and snapped their blades to pieces before twisting their heads around with ease. But one he actually squeezed to the point that it popped with ease.

Rushing down the hall he finally found a large set of double doors and kicked them open. From there he saw a larger than average thug standing there with a smile on his face and a woman with a blank face chained to the desk. He sneered at this hating the idea of enslavement. While they murdered, killed, and stole without a reason they did not condone rape or enslavement of other people.

"Hey asshole! Who are you to come and face Gato and his empire!" Phinks smirked,

"I'm the guy that is going to help bring it to the ground."

"Ha! Fool better men have tried and thanks to my iron body they never succeeded at this!" Phinks smiled,

"Oh really? Then you wouldn't mind if I gave your indestructible body a shot then?" The man laughed,

"Go ahead fool I will enjoy watching you fail!" Phinks grabbed his shoulder and started rotating,

"10 should do." He started counting every rotation and soon his hand was covered in chakra and he smiled.

"I get the free punch remember?" The man was sweating at the thought of being hit by a chakra punch.

"W-w-w-wait!" Without warning his entire body was destroyed by the punch and his remains splattered the wall.

"Damn what a waste of my Cyclone Punch." He turned his head and saw Machi standing there, "Feeling better now?"

"No I do not." She walked over to the woman with a collar around her neck she ran a quick scan over her mind and sighed, "She is practically brain dead bringing her back would only lead to her killing herself."

"So what do we do with her then?" The woman had tears going down her face,

"Please kill me. Don't let master come for me again." Machi closed her eyes and hugged the woman whispering,

"I'm sorry I failed to save you." She sent a quick stab through her chest ending her life in a flash thanks to the chakra scapel. She then removed the chains and covered her body with one of the curtains. She closed her eye lids and whispered, "The boss will make him pay for everything he has done to you and the people you love."

"Machi?" Turing her head she saw Phinks looking concerned,

"Its nothing. I just hate seeing this you know? A person that needs healing but there is nothing I can do to save her. It makes me angry and leads to me remembering my past."

"Really? I understand about the woman but what is it about your past you hate?"

She picked the woman up and carried her in a bridal carry, "A teacher that was a hypocrite and betrayed me when I did what she would not do." She walked past him, "Get into the safe behind the painting and start collecting the stuff we need and bring them back to the boss."

"Sure Machi." Normally he had a smartass remark but seeing this side of Machi showed him that he really didn't know her well. He never saw her so broken or angry. He knew one thing for sure, her power was greater than the rest knew and if he was honest it made him nervous. What was exactly her limits?

Bridge

(I know that it was a week but lets say the mission deployment was a week later)

Team 7 and Team 8 were at a stalemate. Not only was the mysterious partner giving the group trouble but Zabuza was pushing Kakashi and Kurenai to the edge at this point. They had no chance against him one on one but two on one and they were doing better at this point.

Haku, the man in the mirrors was narrowing his eyes at the Uchiha boy, he had done something that was disgusting. He had used his friends as a human meat shield to save his own hide. Basically he used his kawarimi jutsu and swapped places with the boy with the dog and he took all the needles into his body. Naruko was furious about him doing this and was ready to deck the asshole for it but focused on the enemy in front of them.

"You are truly scum Uchiha." Sasuke smirked,

"He should be happy being of use to me, an elite." Haku was about to throw more senbons into the child but sensed something on the outside of his mirrors and approaching with great speed. Having no choice broke off the connection of the mirrors and retreated away from the teens. Standing there was a small teen with a black coat covering his mouth. He was standing there looking at him with boredom written on his face.

"You dodged quick… Impressive reflexes."

"I'm surprised you snuck up on me with there only being one entrance on the bridge."

"Well funny thing about that," behind him was a giant man with a blood thirsty smile on his face, "We just climbed the side of the bridge and got behind you nothing special really."

"Yeah seriously," out of the mist Ban came out of the mist, "You all are too low to sense us let alone fighting us on equal footing."

"Enough we need to get to work. After all I would love to hear the sound of death floating in the air."

Soon Kimblee appeared next to Uvogin and he growled at the man,

"Don't give me orders Kimblee!"

"Oh is that irritating you Uvogin?" The man growled like a wild beast leaving him open for Haku to throw some senbons into his back. But they bounced off his skin drawing his attention back to him.

"That annoyed me." He quickly closed the distance between them before slamming his head into the ground killing him with a single blow. "Damn he was only chunin level nothing special."

"He…. Had a…. bloodline though."

"Shit you think the boss would have wanted it before this guy died!" Uvogin knew the boss got pissed if he missed a bloodline.

"No I know that was an Ice user and from what he told me he already stole that off another user a few years ago."

"Good then I'm safe then."

"Who the hell are you bastards!" The four men turned to the brat and saw Sasuke was glaring at them.

"Whose the brat?"

"Not sure I think he is an Uchiha given his family crest on his clothes. But from his chakra level's I would say he is the runt of the liter." Kimblee loved the way he bristled at the comment of being a runt.

"Doesn't matter….. We need to deal…with the problem on the other side of the bridge."

"Alright, alright lets get to it then." Uvogin turned his head and saw Kimblee already in range with Zabuza who was being pinned down by dog summons. From there, he put his hand on his head and smiled,

"Die fool." With a flash his head exploded in a rush of gore and left his body falling to the ground with a thud. He saw his sword falling to the ground and tried to pick it up. But he couldn't so he shouted,

"Uvo, get over here and help me with this sword."

"Okay no need to shout asshole!" He appeared next to the white dressed man and grabbed the blade before putting on his shoulder. "What do you want this sword for?"

"That is one of the legendary Seven Swords of the Mist so that means we could give it to the boss." Uvogin smiled,

"True, plus this will help smooth things over when we tell him we almost robbed him of a bloodline user." They turned their heads to the two Jounin facing them and saw that they were Leaf. Uvogin snorted knowing the boss ordered them to not kill them and to stay away unless necessary. Worst they could beat them unconscious but nothing that was serious damaged to their bodies or can't be healed.

With the mist gone the group turned their heads and saw a man standing there with an army of mercenaries waiting.

"Well, well thank you all for taking care of Zabuza. This just made my job much easier. Now I don't have to pay him and I can have my men kill all the men and bring the women to me." He looked at the blond girl and Kurenai and smirked lustfully. Feitan sighed, this was annoying this man had an army of mercenaries but they were not worth their time. Power wise they had enough strength together to give the Konoha team trouble or defeat them. More in the sense that their Genin were not real genin yet, they hadn't killed someone yet and this was their own weakness. Without taking someone's life this meant they were not ready for war if it ever came their way. They would freeze on the battlefield and most likely get people killed when it happened.

Seeing their weak opposition he turned to Uvogin and said,

"Go ahead… Kill them all… the boss has no interest in keeping him alive." The giant grinned before growling at the opposition in front of him. He charged at them while Gato shouted,

"Kill this man and the person who brings me their head gets triple what I promised!" The men cheered and charged at the giant.

Kimblee sighed,

"Those idiots don't realize they are walking into their own funeral at this point."

Uvogin quickly started his slaughter, he ripped through the men with ease. He punched holes in their chests, ripped their heads off, crushed their skulls and swung them around like bats, and kicked them off the bridge to their deaths. Gato was growing paler as the large man was killing without hesitance and such efficiency. It got to the point that he had no men left and he was left standing in front of the monster in front of him.

"Wait! I can give you anything you want! Money, Fame, Women you name it!" Uvogin rubbed his chin,

"Interesting offer, if I was a lesser man I would have taken it. But unfortunately for you unlike most of my allies I have no interest in the idea of money. Whatever I want I will take no questions asked." Without a warning he swung his hand snapped his neck to the side that it the bones in his back were popping through the skin. He then brought his fists down and crushed his body in oen vicious double axe handle smash. "That's that." He turned to his allies, "Looks like we are done here then." Turning his head he saw the Jounin were worried about fighting him and the genin were either out cold or struggling to stand. The Uchiha was glaring at them though,

"That was my kill no one denies an Uchiha fool!" Without a chance to stop him Sasuke charged the group. Ban sighed and stepped up and took the kunai through his throat coughing up some blood. Sasuke expected him to crash to the ground but instead he just stood there with a bored expression on his face.

"You done yet kid?" He grabbed his wrist and removed the kunai from his neck before smacking him with a quick chop to the neck.

"SASUKE!" Everyone covered their ears and looked at the annoying pink hair girl. Ban growled,

"Shut the hell up brat! God damn it you are annoying!" Kimblee laughed,

"Not as annoying as some of us though?" Ban sighed,

"Yeah Kimblee anyway lets leave." Before the Konoha team could say or do anything they saw the fog come back and they disappeared from the area. Kakashi finally collapsed to his knees with Kurenai following him.

"God damn that was horrifying." Kurenai nod her head,

"Indeed, to think that monster was here of all places and working with other monsters similar to himself." Naruko approached her teacher and the leader of Team 8,

"Kakshi who are you guys talking about?"

"The man in the white suit, his name is Kimblee and he is a wanted S-class warrior. He is wanted for war crimes in the Land of Hot Springs and other nations. After he escaped the land he managed to disappear for a while and then reappear stealing the Explosive Release from Iwa. Some say he is working someone of great power and influence and it looks like there is some truth to that information. Sadly, I don't know the others but if I had to guess they all work for the same person." Everyone was shocked, that man was a S-Rank criminal and he was running around with some other crew? That was horrifying in their mind thinking about a man that can control of them with ease.

Out of the shadows came Team 10 consisting of the Ino-Shik-Aki trio and their sensei Asuma. They were brought in to protect the client's family while they were busy with the bridge and training. Arriving they had an army of civilians ready to fight to protect their land but after Kakashi explained what happened everyone was surprised. What were criminals doing in their land and what are their goals for them?

Abandoned Church

Naruto saw everyone was back within a week they managed to do what many failed to do, Destroy Gato Enterprises. He didn't show it but he was happy that his people were able to do this with no trouble. They brought him merchandise from the shipments and explained that they were rare jewels and metals that he could sell for a good profit in the future. At the same time, he was given documents from Phinks and Envy explaining that he was working for someone in the Land of Rice but they were unsure who it was.

Hearing this he started reading through the documents while his group was celebrating their success in taking down Gato.

"That was the easiest job ever." Many agreed with Franklin the job was too simple. While they didn't want to bite off more than they could chew it was believed that they were ready for bigger jobs. So why was the boss so interested in Gato and taking down his empire?

"Tell me about that fool was nothing more than a man with money as protection." Uvogin took a big swig of his beer before throwing the can to the side. "I mean seriously not even the Konoha shinobi there would have given us trouble in the state they were in."

"True but they fought Zabuza and his partner prior to this." Kimblee raised a good point but Uvogin snorted,

"Didn't matter if they did or didn't fight a A-class Missing Shinobi the fact of the matter is this, they were weak and not worth our time. I'm telling you if they had ANBU there maybe then things would better us."

"Maybe but you have to remember the boss probably planned our positions to have the highest success rate."

"Yeah I get that but-," the room was flooded with unimaginable power, the walls were shaking and the floor was cracking under the pressure. The group were shivering in fear and looking up to the source. Naruto's body was glowing blue but there were tints of black in the mix of it. His aura took the form of a spider with 12 legs with dark red eyes. The room knew that something on those documents angered their leader and they were all ready for the order to kill. While they might not like each other all the time the truth of the matter was that they were all friends with the boss and all of them would follow him to the ends of the world.

"That bastard. I will have him and his followers skinned for this."

"Boss," looking down at Nobunaga he stared directly at him. They saw his eyes were slitted now showing that in a rare moment he was furious.

"What?"

"What's got you worked up?" Naruto took a deep breath before suppressing his aura again. Handing the document to Nobunaga he read and his eyes widened. "Is this for real boss?"

"Yes it would seem that Gato's benefactor is the one that we have been searching for this whole time."

"Yeah finally we can get some payback." Uvogin walked up,

"Okay seriously what is going on Nobunaga?" He turned to Uvogin with a dark look on his face,

"Orochimaru." The room went silent and everyone glared including Kimblee. The Snake Sanin had been on their shit list for years now. Not only did he cause them trouble in the past, he killed the original 8 not too long ago before fleeing into the unknown. They originally were not going to bother with someone like him but after his death they knew that they needed to deal with the fool.

"So where is the snake." Uvogin was giving off a large amount of bloodlust, he was ready for some action. The entire group remembered when 8 was recruited and hearing they were killed by that snake was more than they could take. Not only was their death was massive blow since the boss brought them in personally but Orochimaru experimented on the corpse to try and find its secrets. Finding the mutilated body was the sign that they were to kill him on top of the fact Naruto slaughtered several bandits the next day in ways that haunted the group. Naruto took their death personally since it was one of the legs that he was in need due to their unique power.

"No this doesn't tell us where he is but might know where he is going to be in the next two months."

"Where will the snake be?" Feitan was eager to skin the man for what he caused the group years ago.

"The Chunin Exam finals it says here that the funds are going to him to recruit and build an army massive enough to invade Konoha."

"Your kidding? That man doesn't have the means to do something like that. Even with advance training in their shinobi there is no way a couple hundred are going to stand against some of the Kage level opponents in the village."

"True Phinks but it says here the alliance with the Sand is going to aid him in this problem. From my guess he is going to use them as a means to increase their forces and force the village into the ground." Kimblee laughed,

"Got to give the man credit he is ambitious for sure. So boss what are we going to do?" Naruto turned to them and smiled,

"The Chunin Exams quickly approach so we are going to post as a team from Meteor Village coming to participate on their behalf. Feitan you will be one of the particpants alongside Machi and Envy the sensei will be Phinks. Nobunaga you will position yourself as a samurai working for free and wanting to explore the village during the Chunin Exams is that clear?" The group agreed to the plan, but then Feitan turned to a corner of the room.

"We've got company." Naruto nod his head and looked in the same direction,

"Come out we know you are there." Out of the shadows came a group of six men each with varying looks. Naruto could feel they were about Chunin level so they were beneath him. But he was angry and needed to work off some of steam. Summoning his book to his side he turned to one of the pages and said,

"So you are here to avenge your friends at the dock then?"

"Yeah we got word some mercenaries were attacking so we decided to check it out. To our surprise it is a bunch of weaklings." Naruto smiled at the man,

"If you are that confident in your assessment then why don't you try your best in defeating me then?" The group took a step back knowing that the boss wanted this fight to himself. The group growled and charged at him with one conjuring some kind of cloak in his hand.

"Be careful guys! If he leads these guys he must be strong!"

"Shut up Owl!" Naruto smiled at them,

"Melt away." With three quick handsigns his cheeks bulged and they formed lava in his mouth before firing the stream at the group. Most managed to dodge but some were caught in the attack. The one with long finger nails and another wrapped up in a streak jacket were melted by the attack. Naruto turned to the rest of the group and saw the four of them were surrounding him and he smiled,

"This won't work fools." Naruto flipped through some pages until he landed on something he needed to end this foolish challenge. But he would get the cloak off the fool that was using it, he might be a unique one like himself and the rest of the Troupe.

Three of them charged but Naruto was prepared and without warning three ice pillars appeared out of the ground when he stomped his foot and ran through one hand sign.

"Ice style: Ice Spears." They choked on their own blood but then eventually passed away. Naruto closed his book forcing the spikes to disappear and leaving him and his Troupe alone with the man with the cloak.

"Tell me is there anything special about that weapon of yours?" The man sweated but smiled,

"Yeah anything that I wrap in the cloak becomes stored in it no matter how big or how small or how much of it there is. Let me show you!" He charged at him and wrapped him in his cloak. From there he tightened it until it shrunk down to the point that it was tiny.

"Interesting ability you have there." Turning around he was shocked to see the same man standing there as if nothing happened.

"How-,"

"Shadow clones very useful in tight situations no?" The man seeing his cloak is busy threw a punch at him but Naruto blocked with his book with his hand touching the handprint side. There was a minor glow around the book but then it faded away. Naruto smiled,

"Theft successful." The cloak disapated and his shadow clone dispelled itself.

"What did you do to me?" Naruto smirked,

"I stole your ability. I liked it so much I had to have it." Seeing himself in trouble the man pushed chakra into his feet and try to take off but before he could make for the exit he was beheaded by Naruto with a quick swipe of his hand. Seeing all the corpses Naruto smiled,

"I have a great way to spread our name and spread fear throughout the land." Everyone smiled, this was going to be epic then.

At the Bridge (two days later)

Everyone was horrified, sitting on the bridge was six corpses of people that were bandits. But not just any bandits the group known as the Shadow Beasts. It was rumored that they were a A-class band of monsters working for Gato or the highest bidder. However each of them were slaughtered while some were missing body parts others were burnt or melted beyond recognition. However the thing that horrified everyone more was the sign that was found on one of the corpses. It was a spider with 12 legs and a number on its back.

"This can't be." Kakashi was horrified, they were here, they had been the one's on the bridge.

"Sensei who did this?" Looking to Naruko he frowned,

"The Phantom Troupe, we need to report to the Hokage now! Everyone double time!"

This event set in motion the rise of the most notorious bandits the world would ever see.

Chapter end

I hope everyone enjoyed this story even though I know it is a pretty rough one bu I had worked on this for a while now so I would like to thank the one that had the challenge on his page and hope it meets his expectations.
