Chapter Forty-five
Sea Monsters in the Land of Sea and Washing Away Dark Memories
It had been a little over a week since the day Raiga died, and Tenten's inclusion into the Fuhen Clan had gone relatively well… with the exception of Tenten's father's reaction: trying to skewer him for stealing his little girl. He calmed down eventually, after Naruto froze him up to his neck and let Tenten explain the circumstances that led to that.
Now, Naruto, Anko, Ino and Shino were walking through a town in Umi no Kuni, the Land of Sea, an insular country that had for the past several months suffering from attacks on the various cargo ships and fishing boats, with goods going missing along with a person or two occasionally.
According to the mission description, some described it as the sea coming alive while others said it was the work of the 'Kaima', a fish-like sea monster. Needles to say, both these descriptions caught the attention of the Fuhen.
It was well known by them after their research in Kiri that members of the Hozuki Clan could not only turn into water through their Suika no jutsu, but also absorb more water from their surroundings in this form to increase their body mass and take the shape of a demonic looking aquatic creature, usually a fish. This matched the description of 'the sea coming alive' rather well.
The other description, that of the 'Kaima' instantly brought the image of a very blue and now very dead Kisame Hoshigaki to the front of their minds. They knew with certainty that it could not be Kisame, even as a resurrected soul through the Edo Tensei. Naruto had made sure of that by blanking his soul and consuming it, adding it to his own. It was the entire purpose of his jutsu: killing his enemies off permanently, and adding their power to his own without being tainted by it.
It was what he planned to do with all the remaining members of Akatsuki and Orochimaru himself. After all, it would be bad if they were brought back in a form in which only Chaos and Void attacks could kill them. Him, he knew that he would survive such an event. Everyone else? No, he could not take the risk of something like that happening.
He was pretty sure that this 'Kaima' was a person with aquatic transformation abilities like Kisame was, being able to merge with Samehada like that.
But all those suppositions were brought to an abrupt stop when Anko accessed some of her still locked memories, which she was gradually unlocking as time passed, and revealed that she had been marked by Orochimaru in Umi no Kuni, where he also had a laboratory. This got Naruto to dig in his set of the snake's memories and find out that the project that lab had as a focus been the creation of the ultimate underwater ninja.
Needles to say, they were caught rather unprepared by this. According to Orochimaru's memories, the lab should have been abandoned and destroyed years ago. And yet it was clear that the attacks were connected to the experiments that took place there. Maybe a surviving subject?
The team started by spreading out and scouting the small port village, in an attempt to gather additional information as well as possibly find any ninja as all four members of the team had means to detect levels of chakra beyond those of the civilians that were supposed to populate the island.
It was soon after they split up that Naruto found a person who had low chunin levels of chakra. It was a purple haired girl, around fourteen or fifteen years old, with her neck, left part of her face as well as portions of her arms and legs covered by bandages. That did not stop his Byakugan eyes to see through them and find out that those portions were covered in green scales.
"Well, I think I found the Kaima, but something doesn't seem right…" Naruto mussed internally before frowning at the sight before him.
The girl was apparently making a living out of fishing, selling what she caught to the various market fish vendors in the area. What caught Naruto's attention was that for the fish she was selling she should be receiving several times more money then the vendor was giving her. He knew that for sure. A few minutes earlier someone else had brought the vendor those kinds of fish and had been paid accordingly.
And then was the cold look in their eyes as he looked at her. It wasn't truly disgust, which could have been explained by the presence of the scales. No, it was a cold look of anger and indifference that he had seen a good portion of his life from the Konoha villagers.
This girl, too, was an outcast for some reason.
Deciding to follow her, he watched as she purchased some groceries with the money she got for the fish and then head towards the edge of the village. Soon enough, her way was blocked by two rather familiar people. As one moved to punch her in the gut, Naruto moved in and caught the fist in a firm grasp.
"Well, well, well." Naruto smiled evilly. "What do we have here? Yoroi Akado and Misumi Tsurugi, traitors of Konohagakure for associating with the missing-nin Orochimaru. Now aren't we in trouble?" Naruto smirked as he squeezed harder, crushing Yoroi's fist.
"Gah!" Yoroi screamed in pain as he pulled his mutilated hand away. "Fuhen!? Why… why are you here?"
"Now, now, that would be telling, wouldn't it?" Naruto shook his finger in admonishment before tilting his head to the right to avoid a kunai sent his way by Misumi. "Oh, sorry for ignoring you, how rude of me!" Naruto exclaimed before surprised yelps were heard as both Yoroi and Misumi were swallowed by the ground up to their necks. "Doton: Shinjū Zanshu no jutsu" Naruto chuckled darkly before pinning the girl, who had been backing away slowly, with a hard stare. "You're not going anywhere. After I deal with these two, you have questions to answer, and if you value your life you will answer truthfully."
With that Naruto took a step forwards and grabbed Yoroi's head before ripping his soul out. He then did the same with Misumi before sinking the two ten more meters into the ground and covering up the holes.
"Well, you were going home, lead the way." Naruto told the girl with an eye smile as he released enough killing intent to make her stagger and nod quickly before turning around and walking at an accelerated pace.
As they approached the sea, Naruto thought that another warning will do her good.
"If you try to jump into the ocean and swim away, you will regret it." Naruto pointed out as a generous amount of lightning surged around him, making the girl gulp.
She soon led him to a small wooden barrack on the edge of the sea, where several kids were writing insults on the walls and throwing rocks through the already broken windows. Reminded by how his apartment was often vandalized, Naruto growled in anger and sent a few weak bolts of lightning at the brats, scaring them off. Motioning the girl to go inside, he made a couple Kage Bunshin to clean it up a bit.
"Now then, let's start simple." Naruto said as he stared at the girl, the Diarium Ejus with the Comptina Daemonia and the Auris Recitans already summoned and out of sight. "What's your name?"
"I-Isaribi." the girl answered, her answer confirmed by the Comptina Daemonia.
"Isaribi." Naruto nodded. "Why are you wearing those bandages?"
This caused her to flinch and look away. Mentally sighing, Naruto got up and before the girl even noticed he moved aside the bandage on her left arm, revealing her scales.
"So, you're hiding your appearance." Naruto said before calmly covering it up again. "How did you get like this?"
Isaribi did not answer and was looking away resolutely. Narrowing his eyes, Naruto let his killing intent wash over her, snapping her to attention and causing her to freeze up and begin trembling.
"Answer." Naruto said coldly.
"I… I was kidnapped." Isaribi said in a trembling voice. "Years ago. They took me and others to a hidden place and… experimented on us."
"Are there any others left?" Naruto asked.
"No." Isaribi closed her eyes. "I'm the only subject left alive."
"Are you the so called Kaima that has been attacking the ships that come to this island?" Naruto asked.
"H-Hai." Isaribi gulped.
"Why?" Naruto inquired.
"He… he said that if I do what he asks me to, he'll turn me back to normal." Isaribi teared up slightly.
"Who?" Naruto asked, tensing up. "Orochimaru?"
"No. The snake man left Amachi in charge years ago." Isaribi said quickly.
"Well, at least there's some good news." Naruto sighed. "Where is he hiding at?"
"I… I can't say." Isaribi shook her head. "If you kill him, I'll be like this…"
She stopped as a Naruto's hand suddenly turned into a dragon paw with a sharp claw at her neck.
"Let me make this situation easier to understand for you." Naruto said calmly, ignoring her bulged eyes at his transformation. "This Amachi character most likely has no idea how to turn you back. And even if he did, he would never do it. Do you know why?" he asked, receiving a trembling shake or her head. "It's because if he turned you back to normal, you would leave this place and go as far away as possible. You would likely also reveal information about him to his enemies in order to get some revenge for what he put you through. And he simply won't risk that happening just to keep his word or to make you happy." Naruto looked the girl in the eye and told her coldly. "When he's done with you, you will go through the same thing all of Orochimaru's experiment subjects do: dissection. He will cut you open and try to find a way to improve the transformation process."
This cause Isaribi to break down in tears, crying her heart out in denial. Naruto felt bad for her, he really did. But he knew that if she didn't accept the truth and try to move on, she would remain a slave for those that made her life hell for the rest of her short life.
"Isaribi." Naruto drew her attention as she calmed down a bit. "I'll make a deal with you. As you can see, I also posses some transformation powers, though I have control over them. Help me find and deal with this Amachi character, and I'll get all the information he has on the experiment out of him. With what he knows and what my clan knows about transformations, I'll have Tsunade Senju, the best healer alive, treat you. If anyone can turn you back to normal, it's her."
"You would do that?" Isaribi asked. "Why?"
"Do you actually think you're the only one who was made an outcast for being different? The only one who was made fun of, who was constantly insulted?" Naruto asked rhetorically. "Oh no, I assure you you're not the only one. In fact, compared to myself and others who had people actually trying to kill them from birth, you were quite fortunate to have a few years without such treatment, before you were captured."
"Kikaijima." Isaribi whispered quietly after a few seconds. "The lab is there. I can…"
"No need, I have three other people with me who are in the village right now. We can deal with it easily. You stay here, and gather your belongings. When we're done, you're leaving with us." Naruto told her as he headed for the door.
"But what…" Isaribi began.
"I doubt you want to return to this place. I know a few people in Wave Country, so I'll get you a place to live there. It has plenty of fishing so you can make a living there easily." Naruto told her.
"Who… who are you?" Isaribi asked, realizing that she didn't even know her name.
"Naruto Uzumaki Namikaze Fuhen." the blond answered before sinking into a shadow and coming out of another within the town. "Ino, Anko, I have all the info we need. Get Shino and meet me at the port." Naruto told them as he casually walked in that direction.
"So, what are we up against?" Anko asked.
"The attacks were being carried out by one of Orochimaru's former experiments. She has to ability to transform into a humanoid creature that can breathe under water and can use some Suiton jutsu. The process has left parts of her body changed at all times, so she's covering them with bandages." Naruto began. "Orochimaru apparently abandoned this experiment years ago, likely right after he gave you your Cursed Mark here. He left a scientist Amachi in charge of finishing things up, but the arrogant fool continued with the experiments. He's blackmailing the girl to attack skips, saying that he'll turn her back to normal. The lab is on Kikaijima."
"What numbers are we up against?" Shino inquired.
"Well, I already talked Isaribi into not interfering and I have a few Kage Bunshin keeping an eye on her. I ran into Yoroi Akado and Misumi Tsurugi earlier and ripped as much information out of their minds as possible. Apparently, they were too scared of going back to Orochimaru because of their failures so they hid here, working for Amachi. Right now, Amachi should be alone on the island." Naruto smirked.
"So, what's the plan? Are going to blow the whole island up?" Ino inquired.
"…Tempting, but I promised the girl, Isaribi, to have Tsunade try and turn her back or at least help her control the transformation completely. We'll need to get all the files on the experiment." Naruto sighed.
"So me move in, kill Amachi, take anything not nailed to the floor and then torch the place?" Anko asked.
"Pretty much." Naruto chuckled sheepishly. "But we'll have to be careful. That place has a ton of traps. We'll have to keep our eyes open and bugs spread to avoid getting skewered."
"How will be approach Kikaijima?" Shino inquired, for some reason feeling a bit of dread as he saw no boats in the port.
"Hehehe." Naruto chuckled as he bit his thumb before making a few handsigns. "Kuchiyose no jutsu!" he slammed his hand to the ground, and after the resulting cloud of smoke dispersed he was standing on a very large blue snake.
"You're joking." Shino said blankly.
Ten minutes later the Aburame heir was mentally cursing Naruto, snakes and summons in general as he tried to keep his lunch and at the same time hold to the snake's scaled body by sticking to it with chakra as is sped towards Kikaijima at high speeds.
"So, what did we learn today?" Anko asked with a wide smile as the snake dispelled.
"Never go on a mission with a Fuhen…" Shino grunted before his cheeks bulged and he ran to the nearest bush to retch.
"Awwww." Naruto, Ino and Anko cooed as the sported amused grins.
"…three are even worse." Shino muttered.
After the Aburame regained his bearings, the four of them headed for the entrance placed above the ground. Naruto had suggested they use the underwater one, but Ino and Shino had refused to allow themselves to be swallowed by a snake even if it made their job easier.
Naruto admitted to himself that in the end it wouldn't have been much of an advantage as, just like many of Orochimaru's more important labs, this one had a detection barrier similar to that of Konoha. Of course, it merely detected people entering, not who or how many or even from where, just when. Naruto was quite certain that Amachi was aware of this and was linked to the barrier, his assumption being proved correct when a trap was activated without the Konoha nin triggering it.
"He knows we're here." Naruto muttered as he blasted away the couple hundred senbon with a silent Flans Saltatio Pulverea before forming a few handsigns. "Yōton: Sekkaigyō no jutsu!" he called out as he spat a stream of quicklime on the wall from which the senbon were launched, sealing the orifices.
"Shino, spread your bugs ahead." Anko ordered as here eyes turned into the silver-white of the Gokei Byakugan.
From there on they sped through they dark corridors constantly dodging projectiles, jumping over sudden trap holes and blowing away various gases until they finally reached…
"A dead end?" Shino asked, somewhat surprised… which the others could catch only because they saw his expression hidden behind his coat's high collar with their active dojutsu.
"Yes, but we don't need to be in this level anyway. We need to be on a lower level. But this place is the perfect location for a new… passageway." Naruto smirked as the others cautiously distanced themselves as the image of his right hand seemed slightly distorted as he slowly placed his right palm on the ground. After another ten seconds, there was suddenly a perfectly round five foot wide hole in the ground under the blond's hand.
Shino stared. He had no idea what just happened. The possibility of Naruto using a Doton jutsu was instantly dismissed as the stone had not been moved or transformed in any way. It simply… disappeared.
"A space-time jutsu, perhaps? A variation of the Hiraishin?" the Aburame wondered.
"Void is scary. Note to self: never fight Asuna when she's serious." were the shared thoughts of Anko and Ino as they watched the place where something was not destroyed, but actually removed from existence.
"Come on!" Naruto whispered as he dropped through the hole, all the while keeping a lookout with his Gokei Byakugan.
They only had to go a couple corridors further to reach their destination, the main section of the lab. As soon as they were inside, Shino and Ino had great difficulty in abstaining from puking their guts at the sight of the dozens of horrors put on display within large vats. Floating in glowing green liquid were various chimeras, from human with animal combinations to bird with fish combinations. Anko herself was breathing heavily as she took it in, all the while holding her head in obvious pain.
"More of her memories have been forcefully unsealed by these familiar sights." Naruto thought grimly as he place his hand on her shoulder and met her eyes.
"…I'll be fine." Anko telepathically told him as she nodded.
Returning the nod, Naruto turned away and led them through the lab towards the few probate offices. They quickly reached the one Amachi was using, which was originally for Orochimaru's use only. Glancing inside, he grimaced before getting rid of the lock with a Void charged punch and pushing the heavily armored door open to reveal the office devoid of life. The carpet however was mostly thrown away from its regular place, revealing a trap door. Opening it, they saw water.
"An emergency escape… and it looks like Isaribi isn't the only one capable of turning into a fish-person." Naruto mussed as he picked up a couple scales that had apparently been grazed off by someone in a hurry.
"How should we proceed?" Shino inquired.
"You and Ino stay here with my clones and begin packing up everything worth anything, which obviously includes all the files." Naruto began as he made Kage Bunshin in groups of ten, waiting until the previous ones had left in order to avoid overflowing the office. "Anko, you go back the way we came in and stay on a watch out on the surface."
"What about you?" Ino inquired.
"I'll pursue him through here." Naruto said as he stepped away from them hand held his hands out to the sides. "Dextra Emissa Stagnet!Μεγάλη Πλημμύρες! Sinistra Emissa Stagnet! Μεγάλη Πλημμύρες!" he called out and a large orb of water energy appeared in each hand. "Duplex Complexio!" he commands as he merged with the two high-ancient water spells, his body turning into a translucent blue with a thin mist surrounding his form. "Kaiō." he declared in a surprisingly tranquil voice. "Well, I'm off." Naruto said before dropping through the hatch into the water.
"Holy… did you see him do that before?" Anko asked Ino.
"No… I only knew he could do this with fire and wind…" Ino muttered before shaking her head. "We need to move."
"Right." Anko took off as fast as she could.
In the water, Naruto was quickly getting used to the current of the sea and was beginning to use the water as radar to find his target. It took him a couple minutes, but he found Amachi on the edge of the island, near the shore. Stretching his arms out, Naruto took control of the currents, redirected them, and had them push him towards his target as he swam faster then a Shundou.
It took him a grand total of nine seconds to be just under the emerging Amachi, giving him the opportunity to blast him out of the water with a high-pressure torrent before emerging himself, at the same time returning to his human form.
"Y-you!" fish-faced Amachi stuttered as he regained his bearings. "How did you find me so fast?"
"You actually believe I would explain it to you? Who do you think I am, Orochimaru?" Naruto raised an eyebrow as he stood on the water facing the scientist.
"You won't get me! Not after I've completed my research! Not now!" Amachi growled as he forms a few familiar handsigns. "Kuchiyose no jutsu!" he called out and the water before him bulged into a gigantic… sludge-like figure made entirely of sea water. "Hah! Let's see how you fair against the greatest being out at sea! Umibōzu, the incarnation of the sea itself!" Amachi laughed.
"… is that it?" Naruto looked at him questionably. "Is that your trump card? Pathetic." he spat as his magic flared. "Entei Shoukan!" he called out and a demonic looking, summon boss-sized, menacing humanoid being made of extremely compressed fire, making it look completely solid, appeared behind him in all it's fiery glory. It quickly became apparent that it followed Naruto's movements as it punched the Umibōzu, evaporating it on contact.
"I-Im-Impossible!" Amachi backed away in horror only to find himself suddenly tied up and suspended from the ground by what appeared to be pitch-black snakes.
"Hello, fish-face." Anko greeted with a sadistic grin as Naruto's fire beast faded away.
"A-Anko Mitarashi." Amachi grimaced. "I…"
"No need for words." Naruto interrupted, his hand suddenly in Amachi's head. "We will know everything you did soon enough." with that he ripped the soul out and paused to assimilate all the memories, before giving the man a look of hatred and disgust and, after taking a sample of his blood, he punched the dead scientist in the chest with a Yuriton-charged fist, disintegrating him in a shower of blood.
"I take it you didn't like what you saw." Anko pointed out.
"As soon as I find some criminal with a death sentence, I'm using the Edo Tensei to summon this worthless shit for a few weeks of torture. I wonder what will break first… the jutsu or his worthless mind?" Naruto growled as he stared hatefully at the red haze coloring the water.
"What got you…?" Anko began only to scream in pain as she grabbed her head with both hands, sinking to her knees.
"Anko! Are you…" Naruto began only to stop at the level of hate Anko was staring at the red-tainted water with. "I take it that memory just got unsealed."
"I want in on the torture." Anko growled. "I'll rape his ass with a fucking Ensis Exsequens! I'll…" that was as far as she got as she burst into tears. "That bastard!" she screamed in anger and agony as Naruto hugged her tightly to his chest.
"What can I say to someone that just remembered getting raped…" Naruto asked himself with a grimace, all the while rubbing Anko's back soothingly. "It's going to be alright, Anko-chan. He's dead, his pawns are dead, and soon enough Orochimaru will be dead as well. It's all going to be alright. I'm here for you…" he whispered in her ear. She eventually calmed down somewhat, but Naruto decided that she was in no state to continue the mission. Silently, Naruto cast the Vana Somno on her, a spell that placed the target in a dreamless sleep for six hours.
He quickly made a Chishio Bunshin and left Anko in its care, he returning to the lab using shadow teleportation.
"How's it going?" he asked swiftly.
"Good, we haven't had any problems yet." Ino answered before noticing the strained look on his face. "Did he get away? Why are you upset… and where's Anko?"
"Oh, he I caught him alright." Naruto barely restrained a growl. "As for Anko… she had a rather… radical memory unsealed after she saw Amachi." Naruto said out loud before adding telepathically "While she was weak from having the Cursed Mark applied, that worthless scum Amachi raped her. She just remembered it. I calmed her down a bit and placed her in a dreamless sleep for a few hours."
Ino grimaced as looked as if she wanted to bolt to Anko's side, but the knowledge of her being asleep and her current task of gathering the files in the lab stopped her. She got back to work after exchanging a worried look with a grim-faced Naruto.
It took them quite a few hours to find all of the research materials, such as various logs and observations, but eventually they had everything sealed away in a few scrolls, safely stored in one of Naruto's pocket dimensions. Deciding to call it a day, they retired for the night in the tents Naruto's Chishio Bunshin had already arranged, one for Shino and the other for the Fuhen, with Anko sleeping soundly inside the latter.
As Ino and Naruto entered their tent, they smiled slightly at the inside. It was thanks to a fluke of design Negi made at some point in the creations of a Diorama sphere that caused the inside to be several times larger then it should have been. It took Eva, Negi, Chao, Naruto and Yue a few weeks to actually find the 'error', an a few more to devise a way to separate it and modify it for individual use, thus creating the spatial expansion runes and seal, which effectively expanded the space of a room, bag, tent, etc.
Thus when they entered their tent, the two Fuhen were greeted by a rather large bedroom, with a king-sized bed on which Anko was resting, with the Chishio Bunshin watching her from a nearby chair. At a glance for Naruto, the Bunshin created a Kage Bunshin and dispelled it, transferring the memories to Naruto, before it went outside to keep watch. Partially undressing, the two blonds lied down on either side of Anko and fell asleep.
Naruto was dreaming. Something which, while most people would consider normal, was quite a rarity for him. Not because he would otherwise have a nightmare. No, it was because of his countless mindscape training sessions since he was 5. Because he had spent nearly all of his sleeping time training within his mindscape, he had mostly lost his ability to dream.
It was something he considered both a blessing and a curse, as while he rarely dreamt, he also rarely had nightmares, which composed the majority of his dreams in his childhood. So, had he been awake and fully aware, he would have considered it quite the oddity, the wet dream he was having, involving quite a few of his fiancées…
"…Mmm, feels so gooood…" Naruto mentally moaned before he stopped dead. Suddenly aware of himself, he realized that he had his eyes closed. He also realized that he was awake. "…Hold on… if I'm awake and I'm still feeling this, then…" his eyes snapped wide open, the sight before him – or rather on top of him – causing a few drops of precum to leak from his hard member, which was quickly licked away by the eager tongue of… "Anko?"
"You're finally awake, Naru-kun." Anko grinned sexily as her hands continued to stroke his erect length.
"What are you doing?" Naruto asked before shaking his head at the look he received. "Dumb question, right. But why? As in why right now, next to a sleeping Ino. And Shino is in the next tent!"
"I need this. Please, Naru-kun, I need this now!" Anko begged him. "I…I feel dirty, knowing that… that thing touched me back then. Please, make me feel clean again."
Naruto was silent for a couple seconds, before getting up and kissing her deeply.
"If you're sure you want this, then alright. I'll do whatever you want tonight." Naruto said as he began to nimble on her neck.
"I… ohhh…. I put up a privacy barrier on the inside of the tent… Shino won't notice a thing… oh, Kami!" she gasped as Naruto's mouth had moved from her neck to her hard nipples which were poking through her fishnet bodysuit.
"What about Ino?" Naruto inquired as he began pinching her nipples, slightly frustrated by her fishnet.
"She's asleep… ah! If she wakes up…I'm not against her joining in… so good!" Anko groaned in pleasure.
Naruto's more careful side would have wanted to protest, but it was quickly drowned by his lust as he got fed up with the fishnet as his right eye morphed into the Eien Mangekyo Sharingan and, with a touch of his hand and spin of the six tomoe, the fishnet became intangible and was sucked into one of separate dimensions, leaving Anko completely naked. A touch and a spin of his tomoe later and his clothes were gone as well.
Taking in the sight his naked body, Anko wasted no time to pounce on him, her hands roaming over his chest. All the while, she was whispering in his ear what she wanted him to do with and to her. As he listened to her, Naruto's hands were not idle as they massaged her full breast and her firm ass, his expression circling surprise, desire, shock, lust and feral lust as her descriptions got more and more graphic, in the end causing him to release guttural growl of desire as he quickly grabbed her shoulders and she was instantly lying on the bed in his place, only with him positioned opposite of her, his eager fingers playing with her pussy as his tongue occasionally flicked her clit, causing shivers of pleasure to go though her.
At the same time, Anko was far from idle. She immediately took the chance presented by his dick right before her eyes to begin licking his length and playing with his balls, applying some suction to them and earning moans of pleasure from the blond. She then focused on his dick only and took it in her mouth, first the head, then a couple more inches.
She began bobbing her head on the hard member, her lengthened tongue occasionally wrapping itself around its head and delivering a few strokes before leaving her mouth and licking a good portion of the rest of the member and even his balls.
Deciding to go further, she took a few deep breaths before taking him further into her mouth. She felt his head hit the back of her throat and, shifting slightly, she used and application of the Nan no Kaizō, the Soft Physique Modification technique, and suppressed her gag reflex as she took him down her throat.
At this Naruto paused and looked down at her, his eyes wide at the way she was swallowing him. His eyes met hers and, after starring at him with wild lust, Anko moved, pumping on his cock a couple times before stopping and giving him an expectant look.
Her telepathic request, "Fuck my mouth!" was entirely unnecessary, and Naruto began pumping deeper into her throat, fully enjoying the tightness and being very turned on by her bulging throat and by her tongue which was caressing his balls.
Anko herself was in heaven. She had no idea that Naruto could use his tongue so good, reaching deep in her moist sex and swirling around causing vibrations that put her in the brink of orgasm. She was however reaching her limit, both nearing her orgasm and her exhausting her air supply. In the end, she came, splashing Naruto's face with her juices as she released a guttural scream, which was barely heard but manifest as additional vibrations to Naruto's thrusting member, causing him to release his restraints and bury himself into Anko's mouth to his roots before cumming, unleashing streams of hot semen directly in her throat before quickly pulling out as she gagged and swallowed it all. Licking a drop of cum that had fallen on her lip, she stared at him hungrily.
"More, give me more…" she whispered.
Licking away some of her juices, he grinned.
"Well, you're certainly wet enough." Naruto commented lightly.
Not bothering to reply, Anko spread her legs wide, inviting him in. Naruto smirked as he slowly lowered himself to her drenched entrance, his tool already hard. Rather then putting it in, however, he slowly rubbed it against her flushed lips and erect clit, causing her to squirm and moan for a full minute before he suddenly backed away. Anko opened her mouth to protest, only to close it in an "O" as Naruto suddenly sank his dick as far as he could into her hot sex. She had an orgasm right there, barely stopping herself from losing consciousness and rolling her eyes back.
Enjoying the look on her face, Naruto began pumping slowly, getting a feel of her pussy. This went on for a few minutes, before Anko spoke up.
"Damnit, Naruto, stop playing around! Fuck me hard, fuck me deep, fuck me stupid!" she practically screamed the last part.
"If that's want you want, Anko-chan…" Naruto smirked "…That's what you'll get!" he said as he nearly pulled out before slamming it back in, its head hitting her cervix. As she gasped in pleasure, he leaned over her and took one of her nipples in his mouth while his hand was caressing her other breast, all the while pumping harder and harder, earning screams of pleasure from Anko, whose legs had crossed around his back, not allowing him to pull out, her pussy contracting around his this thick length and making the experience even more pleasurable.
"Naruto! I'm cumming, I'm cumming!" Anko screamed as her back arched.
Naruto did not bother saying the same, simply coating her insides with white hot cum, sending her off into another orgasm immediately. One look at her however, and he knew that she could take more, that she wanted more, and he was perfectly satisfied with that as he was in the same position.
"…Naru-kun…" Anko whispered throatily. "I want more… more of your cum… and more of you… Make some of Kage Bunshin already…"
Naruto stared. He remembered quite well the jokes at the beginning of his polygamous relationship, that he could satisfy all his girlfriends at the same time using Kage Bunshin. He had not given much thought to it, but obviously the nosebleed that the girls got came from fantasies of not him using Kage Bunshin to satisfy all of them, but him using a lot of Kage Bunshin to satisfy each of them.
"How many?" Naruto decided to ask as he found his voice.
"Make two… but I want YOU to fill me up in another place." Anko whispered.
Naruto wasted no time to make the two Kage Bunshin, reinforced for good measure, as he pulled out of Anko's hot pussy.
"You, lie down." Anko ordered one of the Bunshin who quickly obeyed. Anko quickly got into a crouch over him and lowered herself, impaling her pussy on his hot rod as far as she could. Then, leaning forward, she grabbed her ass cheeks and parted them slightly to show them her final hole. "What are you waiting for?" Anko asked the original.
Shaking his head slightly, Naruto quickly positioned himself at her puckered hole. He did not even consider using some lube, as their combined juices were more then enough. Careful not to hurt her, he slowly pushed past her sphincter, sinking deep into her. He was halfway in when he decided that he loved anal sex, her tightness squeezing the life out of his dick.
Grunting and realizing that if this continued he would cum soon, he pulled out most of his length before pushing it back in, this time all the way to his pubes, causing Anko to scream in pleasure… which was cut off by his second Kage Bunshin filling her mouth with five inches of throbbing cock. Watching this, Naruto was slightly surprised to find himself quite turned on by the sight of Anko being fucked by a copy of him, more so when, at Anko's request, his Bunshin grabbed the sides of her head and began to literally fuck her face. The vibrations of the other Bunshin fucking her pussy certainly added to that.
He was not at all surprised when Anko had several orgasms over the course of the next few minutes, himself unleashing a couple loads of cum into her bowels. When she told them to pull out as they were approaching their next orgasm, Naruto was slightly confused, but once she was on her knees with her eyes closed and her mouth open, tongue hanging out in expectation, it was quite clear what she wanted and moments later she was showered by their combined loads of cum, painting her face and breast with sticky white cream.
With that, she fell on the bed, clearly exhausted, just as the Kage Bunshin reached their limit and dispelled. Apparently, they did not last long when they gave up some of their mass.
Naruto himself lowered himself to sit on the bed, slightly peeved by his still erect member. Just as he was giving it a glare, a hand wrapped around it making him quickly glance to the left at the owner, meeting Ino's green eyes, darkened by lust.
"You didn't even bother keeping the noise down." Ino said, squeezing harder.
"Eh… sorry…. We… kinda got lost in the heat of things…" Naruto said nervously before groaning as she stroked him, still maintaining her firm grip.
"Well, if you were inconsiderate enough to have sex right next to me…" Ino whispered as she reached to her, Naruto only now noticed, uncovered soaking pussy "… you better take responsibility for this." she said as she spread her fingers to reveal a thin stream of her juices.
"Are you sure? It's your first time, isn't it?" Naruto asked with as much concern as he could while suppressing the urge to jump her.
"I am. I want it." Ino answered as she tried to take off her upper clothes with only one hand while the other was still stroking his length.
Deciding to help, Naruto once again used his Eien Mangekyo Sharingan to remove clothes, earning an amused look from her.
"Now that's how those eyes should be used." Ino grinned.
"I bet." Naruto returned the grin before pushing her down on the bed, breaking her contact with his member. He took a moment to take in her naked appearance. While Anko's fishnet left little to imagination, it was the fist time he saw Ino completely naked. His eyes ran over her long legs, her shaved pussy that had only a small blond turf shaped like a petal above her slit, her wasp-like waist, her toned abdomen, her perky C-cup breasts with pink nipples, her smooth neck, her luscious lips, and settled on her light green eyes, only a few shaded beyond blue. "Kami, you're beautiful." he whispered.
"And I'm yours." Ino whispered back, her eyes locked onto his. "Claim me." she added as she spread her legs.
Naruto however ignored that last part. He had no intention to rush things with her. She may have been ready physically, but there was no way he was going to simply take her virginity right off the bat. He started by kissing her, her tongue quickly meeting his and tasting his juices, "and Anko's as well", that thought causing a shiver of pleasure to run down her spine for some reason.
While their mouths were busy, Naruto's hands were massaging her breasts. They were not overly large even if she was in her fifteen year old form, though they were by not measure small, her 34 C being quite larger then a single hand could grasp. He squeezed them and rolled them in his hands, pinching and twisting her nipples earning whimpers of delight from Ino. Breaking the kiss he lowered his mouth to one of her nipple as took it in his mouth, sucking it deeply before biting it earning a yelp of both pain and pleasure.
After playing with her breasts a bit longer, he moved lower, to her drenched pussy. He merely flicked her clit with his tongue and it sent her into an orgasm, squirting her juices over his face.
"Shouldn't be surprised." Naruto thought as he watched her take deep, trembling breaths. "She must have been masturbating for quite a while as she watched me and Anko."
"I have." he heard in his mind and realized that either he had been thinking too loud or that Ino's mind reading ability has grown again. "I want you inside me…but I want to taste you first." came Ino's voice.
The blonde slowly got up and began stroking his member, before tentatively giving the head ad lick, closing her eyes to savor the taste of his and Anko's juices combined. After a few seconds her eyes snapped open and her mouth closed in on his cock so fast that he was afraid she would bite it off. Fortunately, she was merely eager and did not take more then a couple inches into her mouth, wisely deciding that she was in no way ready to replicate Anko's performance of nearly swallowing him whole. She began bobbing her head at a steady pace, her tongue flicking over his piss hole, occasionally stopping to lick his entire length. Eventually she stopped and laid down on the mattress, inviting him with her eyes.
Carefully positioning himself at her moist entrance, Naruto slowly pushed in and stopped after a few inches as he hit a barrier. He met her eyes in askance.
"I'm ready." Ino nodded. "Break through it and then stop inside so I can do a healing jutsu. I already did the contraceptive one."
"Okay." Naruto nodded and, pulling back slightly, she slammed trough, ripping her hymen and thus taking her virginity. He immediately stopped and gave her a kiss to distract her from the pain.
Ino smiled slightly and did the jutsu Tsunade had taught all the girls of the clan, a more effective variation of her own design. Not only did it completely head the wound, but it would also increase sensitivity to pleasure in the immediate area twofold for a short period of time.
"Okay, you can move." Ino told him as she removed her hand from her lower abdomen.
"Kami, you're so tight!" Naruto groaned throatily in her ear as he pumped into her at an increasing pace.
Ino herself could not answer. She was in pure bliss, nearing orgasm, and only managed a purr of pleasure.
"I'm gonna cum!" Naruto warned her.
"Fill me!" Ino groaned.
That was all Naruto needed to hear as he pulled back thrust his cock as deep as possible. Unknown to either of them, a slight side effect of Tsunade's jutsu was to relax the affected muscles so that there was as little pain as possible. So when Naruto thrust in, he speared through her cervix and straight into her womb before unleashing a huge torrent of cum, painting her insides white.
At this Ino's eyes snapped open, she released a screech of intense pleasure as her back arched and her eyes rolled back. She remained in this state, experiencing multiple orgasms, for nearly thirty seconds, at which point Naruto pulled out and she fell into a pleasure-induced unconsciousness.
"Well, damn." Naruto stared at her in slight shock, her face looking quite peculiar with her tongue hanging out slightly from the corner of her mouth, which was curved in a very satisfied smile. "Well, at least she enjoyed her first time." he smiled and lay down on the mattress as well and quickly fell asleep, unaware that due to Ino's slightly unstable mental powers many other women of his clan, most of them already declared fiancés of his, had felt that last chain of orgasms, the pleasure nearly knocking them out as well.
*************************
A.N.: First of all, I'm sorry it took so long to post this chapter. Like I said, I've had several computer problems. Also, college is not something one can afford to neglect.
I hope I've made up for my tardiness at least lightly by adding the lemons to the chapter, said lemons not being in the initial design.
The next chapter may be the last or second to last chapter before the timeskip, and contain the remaining fillers that I'm writing about. And before you ask, no, Naruto will not be leaving on a training trip. He will, however, be away from the village for long periods of time for… reasons that I will not mention yet.
I've also decided that no more Jinchuriki will be introduced before the timeskip, for the simple reason that the timing is not right. Having brought Yugito with Nibi, Roshi with Anya/Yonbi and Sextum/Sanbi into the fold in addition to Gaara with Ichibi and Naruto with Kyubi is quite enough, I believe. The Fuhen are already overpowered, so I'll give the bad guys some breathing room to grow into some half-decent punching bags at the very least.
And as for the many who keep telling me that the Fuhen are too powerful and nothing can challenge them… well, don't look out the window, 'cause Madara's dropping a meteor on you. Yeah, now THAT'S overpowered. Kukukukuku!
Also, I want to point something out to some of those who sent me private messages: your words are far more appreciated when they are in a review. The higher the count, the more inclined I am to sacrifice more of my free time and write the chapters faster.
In other word REVIEW DEAR READERS!
B.N To be completely honest, the lemons were a surprise to me, too! First thoughts were, 'since when did this get so sexy? o.O' and then I went with it. (Sexy time! Woot!) Not that it wasn't an unpleasant surprise... but I digress. It was amazing to finally be able to beta this (read: read it before you suckers) and now I'm going to send it back to him to publish!

Chapter Forty-five
Sea Monsters in the Land of Sea and Washing Away Dark Memories
It had been a little over a week since the day Raiga died, and Tenten's inclusion into the Fuhen Clan had gone relatively well… with the exception of Tenten's father's reaction: trying to skewer him for stealing his little girl. He calmed down eventually, after Naruto froze him up to his neck and let Tenten explain the circumstances that led to that.
Now, Naruto, Anko, Ino and Shino were walking through a town in Umi no Kuni, the Land of Sea, an insular country that had for the past several months suffering from attacks on the various cargo ships and fishing boats, with goods going missing along with a person or two occasionally.
According to the mission description, some described it as the sea coming alive while others said it was the work of the 'Kaima', a fish-like sea monster. Needles to say, both these descriptions caught the attention of the Fuhen.
It was well known by them after their research in Kiri that members of the Hozuki Clan could not only turn into water through their Suika no jutsu, but also absorb more water from their surroundings in this form to increase their body mass and take the shape of a demonic looking aquatic creature, usually a fish. This matched the description of 'the sea coming alive' rather well.
The other description, that of the 'Kaima' instantly brought the image of a very blue and now very dead Kisame Hoshigaki to the front of their minds. They knew with certainty that it could not be Kisame, even as a resurrected soul through the Edo Tensei. Naruto had made sure of that by blanking his soul and consuming it, adding it to his own. It was the entire purpose of his jutsu: killing his enemies off permanently, and adding their power to his own without being tainted by it.
It was what he planned to do with all the remaining members of Akatsuki and Orochimaru himself. After all, it would be bad if they were brought back in a form in which only Chaos and Void attacks could kill them. Him, he knew that he would survive such an event. Everyone else? No, he could not take the risk of something like that happening.
He was pretty sure that this 'Kaima' was a person with aquatic transformation abilities like Kisame was, being able to merge with Samehada like that.
But all those suppositions were brought to an abrupt stop when Anko accessed some of her still locked memories, which she was gradually unlocking as time passed, and revealed that she had been marked by Orochimaru in Umi no Kuni, where he also had a laboratory. This got Naruto to dig in his set of the snake's memories and find out that the project that lab had as a focus been the creation of the ultimate underwater ninja.
Needles to say, they were caught rather unprepared by this. According to Orochimaru's memories, the lab should have been abandoned and destroyed years ago. And yet it was clear that the attacks were connected to the experiments that took place there. Maybe a surviving subject?
The team started by spreading out and scouting the small port village, in an attempt to gather additional information as well as possibly find any ninja as all four members of the team had means to detect levels of chakra beyond those of the civilians that were supposed to populate the island.
It was soon after they split up that Naruto found a person who had low chunin levels of chakra. It was a purple haired girl, around fourteen or fifteen years old, with her neck, left part of her face as well as portions of her arms and legs covered by bandages. That did not stop his Byakugan eyes to see through them and find out that those portions were covered in green scales.
"Well, I think I found the Kaima, but something doesn't seem right…" Naruto mussed internally before frowning at the sight before him.
The girl was apparently making a living out of fishing, selling what she caught to the various market fish vendors in the area. What caught Naruto's attention was that for the fish she was selling she should be receiving several times more money then the vendor was giving her. He knew that for sure. A few minutes earlier someone else had brought the vendor those kinds of fish and had been paid accordingly.
And then was the cold look in their eyes as he looked at her. It wasn't truly disgust, which could have been explained by the presence of the scales. No, it was a cold look of anger and indifference that he had seen a good portion of his life from the Konoha villagers.
This girl, too, was an outcast for some reason.
Deciding to follow her, he watched as she purchased some groceries with the money she got for the fish and then head towards the edge of the village. Soon enough, her way was blocked by two rather familiar people. As one moved to punch her in the gut, Naruto moved in and caught the fist in a firm grasp.
"Well, well, well." Naruto smiled evilly. "What do we have here? Yoroi Akado and Misumi Tsurugi, traitors of Konohagakure for associating with the missing-nin Orochimaru. Now aren't we in trouble?" Naruto smirked as he squeezed harder, crushing Yoroi's fist.
"Gah!" Yoroi screamed in pain as he pulled his mutilated hand away. "Fuhen!? Why… why are you here?"
"Now, now, that would be telling, wouldn't it?" Naruto shook his finger in admonishment before tilting his head to the right to avoid a kunai sent his way by Misumi. "Oh, sorry for ignoring you, how rude of me!" Naruto exclaimed before surprised yelps were heard as both Yoroi and Misumi were swallowed by the ground up to their necks. "Doton: Shinjū Zanshu no jutsu" Naruto chuckled darkly before pinning the girl, who had been backing away slowly, with a hard stare. "You're not going anywhere. After I deal with these two, you have questions to answer, and if you value your life you will answer truthfully."
With that Naruto took a step forwards and grabbed Yoroi's head before ripping his soul out. He then did the same with Misumi before sinking the two ten more meters into the ground and covering up the holes.
"Well, you were going home, lead the way." Naruto told the girl with an eye smile as he released enough killing intent to make her stagger and nod quickly before turning around and walking at an accelerated pace.
As they approached the sea, Naruto thought that another warning will do her good.
"If you try to jump into the ocean and swim away, you will regret it." Naruto pointed out as a generous amount of lightning surged around him, making the girl gulp.
She soon led him to a small wooden barrack on the edge of the sea, where several kids were writing insults on the walls and throwing rocks through the already broken windows. Reminded by how his apartment was often vandalized, Naruto growled in anger and sent a few weak bolts of lightning at the brats, scaring them off. Motioning the girl to go inside, he made a couple Kage Bunshin to clean it up a bit.
"Now then, let's start simple." Naruto said as he stared at the girl, the Diarium Ejus with the Comptina Daemonia and the Auris Recitans already summoned and out of sight. "What's your name?"
"I-Isaribi." the girl answered, her answer confirmed by the Comptina Daemonia.
"Isaribi." Naruto nodded. "Why are you wearing those bandages?"
This caused her to flinch and look away. Mentally sighing, Naruto got up and before the girl even noticed he moved aside the bandage on her left arm, revealing her scales.
"So, you're hiding your appearance." Naruto said before calmly covering it up again. "How did you get like this?"
Isaribi did not answer and was looking away resolutely. Narrowing his eyes, Naruto let his killing intent wash over her, snapping her to attention and causing her to freeze up and begin trembling.
"Answer." Naruto said coldly.
"I… I was kidnapped." Isaribi said in a trembling voice. "Years ago. They took me and others to a hidden place and… experimented on us."
"Are there any others left?" Naruto asked.
"No." Isaribi closed her eyes. "I'm the only subject left alive."
"Are you the so called Kaima that has been attacking the ships that come to this island?" Naruto asked.
"H-Hai." Isaribi gulped.
"Why?" Naruto inquired.
"He… he said that if I do what he asks me to, he'll turn me back to normal." Isaribi teared up slightly.
"Who?" Naruto asked, tensing up. "Orochimaru?"
"No. The snake man left Amachi in charge years ago." Isaribi said quickly.
"Well, at least there's some good news." Naruto sighed. "Where is he hiding at?"
"I… I can't say." Isaribi shook her head. "If you kill him, I'll be like this…"
She stopped as a Naruto's hand suddenly turned into a dragon paw with a sharp claw at her neck.
"Let me make this situation easier to understand for you." Naruto said calmly, ignoring her bulged eyes at his transformation. "This Amachi character most likely has no idea how to turn you back. And even if he did, he would never do it. Do you know why?" he asked, receiving a trembling shake or her head. "It's because if he turned you back to normal, you would leave this place and go as far away as possible. You would likely also reveal information about him to his enemies in order to get some revenge for what he put you through. And he simply won't risk that happening just to keep his word or to make you happy." Naruto looked the girl in the eye and told her coldly. "When he's done with you, you will go through the same thing all of Orochimaru's experiment subjects do: dissection. He will cut you open and try to find a way to improve the transformation process."
This cause Isaribi to break down in tears, crying her heart out in denial. Naruto felt bad for her, he really did. But he knew that if she didn't accept the truth and try to move on, she would remain a slave for those that made her life hell for the rest of her short life.
"Isaribi." Naruto drew her attention as she calmed down a bit. "I'll make a deal with you. As you can see, I also posses some transformation powers, though I have control over them. Help me find and deal with this Amachi character, and I'll get all the information he has on the experiment out of him. With what he knows and what my clan knows about transformations, I'll have Tsunade Senju, the best healer alive, treat you. If anyone can turn you back to normal, it's her."
"You would do that?" Isaribi asked. "Why?"
"Do you actually think you're the only one who was made an outcast for being different? The only one who was made fun of, who was constantly insulted?" Naruto asked rhetorically. "Oh no, I assure you you're not the only one. In fact, compared to myself and others who had people actually trying to kill them from birth, you were quite fortunate to have a few years without such treatment, before you were captured."
"Kikaijima." Isaribi whispered quietly after a few seconds. "The lab is there. I can…"
"No need, I have three other people with me who are in the village right now. We can deal with it easily. You stay here, and gather your belongings. When we're done, you're leaving with us." Naruto told her as he headed for the door.
"But what…" Isaribi began.
"I doubt you want to return to this place. I know a few people in Wave Country, so I'll get you a place to live there. It has plenty of fishing so you can make a living there easily." Naruto told her.
"Who… who are you?" Isaribi asked, realizing that she didn't even know her name.
"Naruto Uzumaki Namikaze Fuhen." the blond answered before sinking into a shadow and coming out of another within the town. "Ino, Anko, I have all the info we need. Get Shino and meet me at the port." Naruto told them as he casually walked in that direction.
"So, what are we up against?" Anko asked.
"The attacks were being carried out by one of Orochimaru's former experiments. She has to ability to transform into a humanoid creature that can breathe under water and can use some Suiton jutsu. The process has left parts of her body changed at all times, so she's covering them with bandages." Naruto began. "Orochimaru apparently abandoned this experiment years ago, likely right after he gave you your Cursed Mark here. He left a scientist Amachi in charge of finishing things up, but the arrogant fool continued with the experiments. He's blackmailing the girl to attack skips, saying that he'll turn her back to normal. The lab is on Kikaijima."
"What numbers are we up against?" Shino inquired.
"Well, I already talked Isaribi into not interfering and I have a few Kage Bunshin keeping an eye on her. I ran into Yoroi Akado and Misumi Tsurugi earlier and ripped as much information out of their minds as possible. Apparently, they were too scared of going back to Orochimaru because of their failures so they hid here, working for Amachi. Right now, Amachi should be alone on the island." Naruto smirked.
"So, what's the plan? Are going to blow the whole island up?" Ino inquired.
"…Tempting, but I promised the girl, Isaribi, to have Tsunade try and turn her back or at least help her control the transformation completely. We'll need to get all the files on the experiment." Naruto sighed.
"So me move in, kill Amachi, take anything not nailed to the floor and then torch the place?" Anko asked.
"Pretty much." Naruto chuckled sheepishly. "But we'll have to be careful. That place has a ton of traps. We'll have to keep our eyes open and bugs spread to avoid getting skewered."
"How will be approach Kikaijima?" Shino inquired, for some reason feeling a bit of dread as he saw no boats in the port.
"Hehehe." Naruto chuckled as he bit his thumb before making a few handsigns. "Kuchiyose no jutsu!" he slammed his hand to the ground, and after the resulting cloud of smoke dispersed he was standing on a very large blue snake.
"You're joking." Shino said blankly.
Ten minutes later the Aburame heir was mentally cursing Naruto, snakes and summons in general as he tried to keep his lunch and at the same time hold to the snake's scaled body by sticking to it with chakra as is sped towards Kikaijima at high speeds.
"So, what did we learn today?" Anko asked with a wide smile as the snake dispelled.
"Never go on a mission with a Fuhen…" Shino grunted before his cheeks bulged and he ran to the nearest bush to retch.
"Awwww." Naruto, Ino and Anko cooed as the sported amused grins.
"…three are even worse." Shino muttered.
After the Aburame regained his bearings, the four of them headed for the entrance placed above the ground. Naruto had suggested they use the underwater one, but Ino and Shino had refused to allow themselves to be swallowed by a snake even if it made their job easier.
Naruto admitted to himself that in the end it wouldn't have been much of an advantage as, just like many of Orochimaru's more important labs, this one had a detection barrier similar to that of Konoha. Of course, it merely detected people entering, not who or how many or even from where, just when. Naruto was quite certain that Amachi was aware of this and was linked to the barrier, his assumption being proved correct when a trap was activated without the Konoha nin triggering it.
"He knows we're here." Naruto muttered as he blasted away the couple hundred senbon with a silent Flans Saltatio Pulverea before forming a few handsigns. "Yōton: Sekkaigyō no jutsu!" he called out as he spat a stream of quicklime on the wall from which the senbon were launched, sealing the orifices.
"Shino, spread your bugs ahead." Anko ordered as here eyes turned into the silver-white of the Gokei Byakugan.
From there on they sped through they dark corridors constantly dodging projectiles, jumping over sudden trap holes and blowing away various gases until they finally reached…
"A dead end?" Shino asked, somewhat surprised… which the others could catch only because they saw his expression hidden behind his coat's high collar with their active dojutsu.
"Yes, but we don't need to be in this level anyway. We need to be on a lower level. But this place is the perfect location for a new… passageway." Naruto smirked as the others cautiously distanced themselves as the image of his right hand seemed slightly distorted as he slowly placed his right palm on the ground. After another ten seconds, there was suddenly a perfectly round five foot wide hole in the ground under the blond's hand.
Shino stared. He had no idea what just happened. The possibility of Naruto using a Doton jutsu was instantly dismissed as the stone had not been moved or transformed in any way. It simply… disappeared.
"A space-time jutsu, perhaps? A variation of the Hiraishin?" the Aburame wondered.
"Void is scary. Note to self: never fight Asuna when she's serious." were the shared thoughts of Anko and Ino as they watched the place where something was not destroyed, but actually removed from existence.
"Come on!" Naruto whispered as he dropped through the hole, all the while keeping a lookout with his Gokei Byakugan.
They only had to go a couple corridors further to reach their destination, the main section of the lab. As soon as they were inside, Shino and Ino had great difficulty in abstaining from puking their guts at the sight of the dozens of horrors put on display within large vats. Floating in glowing green liquid were various chimeras, from human with animal combinations to bird with fish combinations. Anko herself was breathing heavily as she took it in, all the while holding her head in obvious pain.
"More of her memories have been forcefully unsealed by these familiar sights." Naruto thought grimly as he place his hand on her shoulder and met her eyes.
"…I'll be fine." Anko telepathically told him as she nodded.
Returning the nod, Naruto turned away and led them through the lab towards the few probate offices. They quickly reached the one Amachi was using, which was originally for Orochimaru's use only. Glancing inside, he grimaced before getting rid of the lock with a Void charged punch and pushing the heavily armored door open to reveal the office devoid of life. The carpet however was mostly thrown away from its regular place, revealing a trap door. Opening it, they saw water.
"An emergency escape… and it looks like Isaribi isn't the only one capable of turning into a fish-person." Naruto mussed as he picked up a couple scales that had apparently been grazed off by someone in a hurry.
"How should we proceed?" Shino inquired.
"You and Ino stay here with my clones and begin packing up everything worth anything, which obviously includes all the files." Naruto began as he made Kage Bunshin in groups of ten, waiting until the previous ones had left in order to avoid overflowing the office. "Anko, you go back the way we came in and stay on a watch out on the surface."
"What about you?" Ino inquired.
"I'll pursue him through here." Naruto said as he stepped away from them hand held his hands out to the sides. "Dextra Emissa Stagnet!Μεγάλη Πλημμύρες! Sinistra Emissa Stagnet! Μεγάλη Πλημμύρες!" he called out and a large orb of water energy appeared in each hand. "Duplex Complexio!" he commands as he merged with the two high-ancient water spells, his body turning into a translucent blue with a thin mist surrounding his form. "Kaiō." he declared in a surprisingly tranquil voice. "Well, I'm off." Naruto said before dropping through the hatch into the water.
"Holy… did you see him do that before?" Anko asked Ino.
"No… I only knew he could do this with fire and wind…" Ino muttered before shaking her head. "We need to move."
"Right." Anko took off as fast as she could.
In the water, Naruto was quickly getting used to the current of the sea and was beginning to use the water as radar to find his target. It took him a couple minutes, but he found Amachi on the edge of the island, near the shore. Stretching his arms out, Naruto took control of the currents, redirected them, and had them push him towards his target as he swam faster then a Shundou.
It took him a grand total of nine seconds to be just under the emerging Amachi, giving him the opportunity to blast him out of the water with a high-pressure torrent before emerging himself, at the same time returning to his human form.
"Y-you!" fish-faced Amachi stuttered as he regained his bearings. "How did you find me so fast?"
"You actually believe I would explain it to you? Who do you think I am, Orochimaru?" Naruto raised an eyebrow as he stood on the water facing the scientist.
"You won't get me! Not after I've completed my research! Not now!" Amachi growled as he forms a few familiar handsigns. "Kuchiyose no jutsu!" he called out and the water before him bulged into a gigantic… sludge-like figure made entirely of sea water. "Hah! Let's see how you fair against the greatest being out at sea! Umibōzu, the incarnation of the sea itself!" Amachi laughed.
"… is that it?" Naruto looked at him questionably. "Is that your trump card? Pathetic." he spat as his magic flared. "Entei Shoukan!" he called out and a demonic looking, summon boss-sized, menacing humanoid being made of extremely compressed fire, making it look completely solid, appeared behind him in all it's fiery glory. It quickly became apparent that it followed Naruto's movements as it punched the Umibōzu, evaporating it on contact.
"I-Im-Impossible!" Amachi backed away in horror only to find himself suddenly tied up and suspended from the ground by what appeared to be pitch-black snakes.
"Hello, fish-face." Anko greeted with a sadistic grin as Naruto's fire beast faded away.
"A-Anko Mitarashi." Amachi grimaced. "I…"
"No need for words." Naruto interrupted, his hand suddenly in Amachi's head. "We will know everything you did soon enough." with that he ripped the soul out and paused to assimilate all the memories, before giving the man a look of hatred and disgust and, after taking a sample of his blood, he punched the dead scientist in the chest with a Yuriton-charged fist, disintegrating him in a shower of blood.
"I take it you didn't like what you saw." Anko pointed out.
"As soon as I find some criminal with a death sentence, I'm using the Edo Tensei to summon this worthless shit for a few weeks of torture. I wonder what will break first… the jutsu or his worthless mind?" Naruto growled as he stared hatefully at the red haze coloring the water.
"What got you…?" Anko began only to scream in pain as she grabbed her head with both hands, sinking to her knees.
"Anko! Are you…" Naruto began only to stop at the level of hate Anko was staring at the red-tainted water with. "I take it that memory just got unsealed."
"I want in on the torture." Anko growled. "I'll rape his ass with a fucking Ensis Exsequens! I'll…" that was as far as she got as she burst into tears. "That bastard!" she screamed in anger and agony as Naruto hugged her tightly to his chest.
"What can I say to someone that just remembered getting raped…" Naruto asked himself with a grimace, all the while rubbing Anko's back soothingly. "It's going to be alright, Anko-chan. He's dead, his pawns are dead, and soon enough Orochimaru will be dead as well. It's all going to be alright. I'm here for you…" he whispered in her ear. She eventually calmed down somewhat, but Naruto decided that she was in no state to continue the mission. Silently, Naruto cast the Vana Somno on her, a spell that placed the target in a dreamless sleep for six hours.
He quickly made a Chishio Bunshin and left Anko in its care, he returning to the lab using shadow teleportation.
"How's it going?" he asked swiftly.
"Good, we haven't had any problems yet." Ino answered before noticing the strained look on his face. "Did he get away? Why are you upset… and where's Anko?"
"Oh, he I caught him alright." Naruto barely restrained a growl. "As for Anko… she had a rather… radical memory unsealed after she saw Amachi." Naruto said out loud before adding telepathically "While she was weak from having the Cursed Mark applied, that worthless scum Amachi raped her. She just remembered it. I calmed her down a bit and placed her in a dreamless sleep for a few hours."
Ino grimaced as looked as if she wanted to bolt to Anko's side, but the knowledge of her being asleep and her current task of gathering the files in the lab stopped her. She got back to work after exchanging a worried look with a grim-faced Naruto.
It took them quite a few hours to find all of the research materials, such as various logs and observations, but eventually they had everything sealed away in a few scrolls, safely stored in one of Naruto's pocket dimensions. Deciding to call it a day, they retired for the night in the tents Naruto's Chishio Bunshin had already arranged, one for Shino and the other for the Fuhen, with Anko sleeping soundly inside the latter.
As Ino and Naruto entered their tent, they smiled slightly at the inside. It was thanks to a fluke of design Negi made at some point in the creations of a Diorama sphere that caused the inside to be several times larger then it should have been. It took Eva, Negi, Chao, Naruto and Yue a few weeks to actually find the 'error', an a few more to devise a way to separate it and modify it for individual use, thus creating the spatial expansion runes and seal, which effectively expanded the space of a room, bag, tent, etc.
Thus when they entered their tent, the two Fuhen were greeted by a rather large bedroom, with a king-sized bed on which Anko was resting, with the Chishio Bunshin watching her from a nearby chair. At a glance for Naruto, the Bunshin created a Kage Bunshin and dispelled it, transferring the memories to Naruto, before it went outside to keep watch. Partially undressing, the two blonds lied down on either side of Anko and fell asleep.
Naruto was dreaming. Something which, while most people would consider normal, was quite a rarity for him. Not because he would otherwise have a nightmare. No, it was because of his countless mindscape training sessions since he was 5. Because he had spent nearly all of his sleeping time training within his mindscape, he had mostly lost his ability to dream.
It was something he considered both a blessing and a curse, as while he rarely dreamt, he also rarely had nightmares, which composed the majority of his dreams in his childhood. So, had he been awake and fully aware, he would have considered it quite the oddity, the wet dream he was having, involving quite a few of his fiancées…
"…Mmm, feels so gooood…" Naruto mentally moaned before he stopped dead. Suddenly aware of himself, he realized that he had his eyes closed. He also realized that he was awake. "…Hold on… if I'm awake and I'm still feeling this, then…" his eyes snapped wide open, the sight before him – or rather on top of him – causing a few drops of precum to leak from his hard member, which was quickly licked away by the eager tongue of… "Anko?"
"You're finally awake, Naru-kun." Anko grinned sexily as her hands continued to stroke his erect length.
"What are you doing?" Naruto asked before shaking his head at the look he received. "Dumb question, right. But why? As in why right now, next to a sleeping Ino. And Shino is in the next tent!"
"I need this. Please, Naru-kun, I need this now!" Anko begged him. "I…I feel dirty, knowing that… that thing touched me back then. Please, make me feel clean again."
Naruto was silent for a couple seconds, before getting up and kissing her deeply.
"If you're sure you want this, then alright. I'll do whatever you want tonight." Naruto said as he began to nimble on her neck.
"I… ohhh…. I put up a privacy barrier on the inside of the tent… Shino won't notice a thing… oh, Kami!" she gasped as Naruto's mouth had moved from her neck to her hard nipples which were poking through her fishnet bodysuit.
"What about Ino?" Naruto inquired as he began pinching her nipples, slightly frustrated by her fishnet.
"She's asleep… ah! If she wakes up…I'm not against her joining in… so good!" Anko groaned in pleasure.
Naruto's more careful side would have wanted to protest, but it was quickly drowned by his lust as he got fed up with the fishnet as his right eye morphed into the Eien Mangekyo Sharingan and, with a touch of his hand and spin of the six tomoe, the fishnet became intangible and was sucked into one of separate dimensions, leaving Anko completely naked. A touch and a spin of his tomoe later and his clothes were gone as well.
Taking in the sight his naked body, Anko wasted no time to pounce on him, her hands roaming over his chest. All the while, she was whispering in his ear what she wanted him to do with and to her. As he listened to her, Naruto's hands were not idle as they massaged her full breast and her firm ass, his expression circling surprise, desire, shock, lust and feral lust as her descriptions got more and more graphic, in the end causing him to release guttural growl of desire as he quickly grabbed her shoulders and she was instantly lying on the bed in his place, only with him positioned opposite of her, his eager fingers playing with her pussy as his tongue occasionally flicked her clit, causing shivers of pleasure to go though her.
At the same time, Anko was far from idle. She immediately took the chance presented by his dick right before her eyes to begin licking his length and playing with his balls, applying some suction to them and earning moans of pleasure from the blond. She then focused on his dick only and took it in her mouth, first the head, then a couple more inches.
She began bobbing her head on the hard member, her lengthened tongue occasionally wrapping itself around its head and delivering a few strokes before leaving her mouth and licking a good portion of the rest of the member and even his balls.
Deciding to go further, she took a few deep breaths before taking him further into her mouth. She felt his head hit the back of her throat and, shifting slightly, she used and application of the Nan no Kaizō, the Soft Physique Modification technique, and suppressed her gag reflex as she took him down her throat.
At this Naruto paused and looked down at her, his eyes wide at the way she was swallowing him. His eyes met hers and, after starring at him with wild lust, Anko moved, pumping on his cock a couple times before stopping and giving him an expectant look.
Her telepathic request, "Fuck my mouth!" was entirely unnecessary, and Naruto began pumping deeper into her throat, fully enjoying the tightness and being very turned on by her bulging throat and by her tongue which was caressing his balls.
Anko herself was in heaven. She had no idea that Naruto could use his tongue so good, reaching deep in her moist sex and swirling around causing vibrations that put her in the brink of orgasm. She was however reaching her limit, both nearing her orgasm and her exhausting her air supply. In the end, she came, splashing Naruto's face with her juices as she released a guttural scream, which was barely heard but manifest as additional vibrations to Naruto's thrusting member, causing him to release his restraints and bury himself into Anko's mouth to his roots before cumming, unleashing streams of hot semen directly in her throat before quickly pulling out as she gagged and swallowed it all. Licking a drop of cum that had fallen on her lip, she stared at him hungrily.
"More, give me more…" she whispered.
Licking away some of her juices, he grinned.
"Well, you're certainly wet enough." Naruto commented lightly.
Not bothering to reply, Anko spread her legs wide, inviting him in. Naruto smirked as he slowly lowered himself to her drenched entrance, his tool already hard. Rather then putting it in, however, he slowly rubbed it against her flushed lips and erect clit, causing her to squirm and moan for a full minute before he suddenly backed away. Anko opened her mouth to protest, only to close it in an "O" as Naruto suddenly sank his dick as far as he could into her hot sex. She had an orgasm right there, barely stopping herself from losing consciousness and rolling her eyes back.
Enjoying the look on her face, Naruto began pumping slowly, getting a feel of her pussy. This went on for a few minutes, before Anko spoke up.
"Damnit, Naruto, stop playing around! Fuck me hard, fuck me deep, fuck me stupid!" she practically screamed the last part.
"If that's want you want, Anko-chan…" Naruto smirked "…That's what you'll get!" he said as he nearly pulled out before slamming it back in, its head hitting her cervix. As she gasped in pleasure, he leaned over her and took one of her nipples in his mouth while his hand was caressing her other breast, all the while pumping harder and harder, earning screams of pleasure from Anko, whose legs had crossed around his back, not allowing him to pull out, her pussy contracting around his this thick length and making the experience even more pleasurable.
"Naruto! I'm cumming, I'm cumming!" Anko screamed as her back arched.
Naruto did not bother saying the same, simply coating her insides with white hot cum, sending her off into another orgasm immediately. One look at her however, and he knew that she could take more, that she wanted more, and he was perfectly satisfied with that as he was in the same position.
"…Naru-kun…" Anko whispered throatily. "I want more… more of your cum… and more of you… Make some of Kage Bunshin already…"
Naruto stared. He remembered quite well the jokes at the beginning of his polygamous relationship, that he could satisfy all his girlfriends at the same time using Kage Bunshin. He had not given much thought to it, but obviously the nosebleed that the girls got came from fantasies of not him using Kage Bunshin to satisfy all of them, but him using a lot of Kage Bunshin to satisfy each of them.
"How many?" Naruto decided to ask as he found his voice.
"Make two… but I want YOU to fill me up in another place." Anko whispered.
Naruto wasted no time to make the two Kage Bunshin, reinforced for good measure, as he pulled out of Anko's hot pussy.
"You, lie down." Anko ordered one of the Bunshin who quickly obeyed. Anko quickly got into a crouch over him and lowered herself, impaling her pussy on his hot rod as far as she could. Then, leaning forward, she grabbed her ass cheeks and parted them slightly to show them her final hole. "What are you waiting for?" Anko asked the original.
Shaking his head slightly, Naruto quickly positioned himself at her puckered hole. He did not even consider using some lube, as their combined juices were more then enough. Careful not to hurt her, he slowly pushed past her sphincter, sinking deep into her. He was halfway in when he decided that he loved anal sex, her tightness squeezing the life out of his dick.
Grunting and realizing that if this continued he would cum soon, he pulled out most of his length before pushing it back in, this time all the way to his pubes, causing Anko to scream in pleasure… which was cut off by his second Kage Bunshin filling her mouth with five inches of throbbing cock. Watching this, Naruto was slightly surprised to find himself quite turned on by the sight of Anko being fucked by a copy of him, more so when, at Anko's request, his Bunshin grabbed the sides of her head and began to literally fuck her face. The vibrations of the other Bunshin fucking her pussy certainly added to that.
He was not at all surprised when Anko had several orgasms over the course of the next few minutes, himself unleashing a couple loads of cum into her bowels. When she told them to pull out as they were approaching their next orgasm, Naruto was slightly confused, but once she was on her knees with her eyes closed and her mouth open, tongue hanging out in expectation, it was quite clear what she wanted and moments later she was showered by their combined loads of cum, painting her face and breast with sticky white cream.
With that, she fell on the bed, clearly exhausted, just as the Kage Bunshin reached their limit and dispelled. Apparently, they did not last long when they gave up some of their mass.
Naruto himself lowered himself to sit on the bed, slightly peeved by his still erect member. Just as he was giving it a glare, a hand wrapped around it making him quickly glance to the left at the owner, meeting Ino's green eyes, darkened by lust.
"You didn't even bother keeping the noise down." Ino said, squeezing harder.
"Eh… sorry…. We… kinda got lost in the heat of things…" Naruto said nervously before groaning as she stroked him, still maintaining her firm grip.
"Well, if you were inconsiderate enough to have sex right next to me…" Ino whispered as she reached to her, Naruto only now noticed, uncovered soaking pussy "… you better take responsibility for this." she said as she spread her fingers to reveal a thin stream of her juices.
"Are you sure? It's your first time, isn't it?" Naruto asked with as much concern as he could while suppressing the urge to jump her.
"I am. I want it." Ino answered as she tried to take off her upper clothes with only one hand while the other was still stroking his length.
Deciding to help, Naruto once again used his Eien Mangekyo Sharingan to remove clothes, earning an amused look from her.
"Now that's how those eyes should be used." Ino grinned.
"I bet." Naruto returned the grin before pushing her down on the bed, breaking her contact with his member. He took a moment to take in her naked appearance. While Anko's fishnet left little to imagination, it was the fist time he saw Ino completely naked. His eyes ran over her long legs, her shaved pussy that had only a small blond turf shaped like a petal above her slit, her wasp-like waist, her toned abdomen, her perky C-cup breasts with pink nipples, her smooth neck, her luscious lips, and settled on her light green eyes, only a few shaded beyond blue. "Kami, you're beautiful." he whispered.
"And I'm yours." Ino whispered back, her eyes locked onto his. "Claim me." she added as she spread her legs.
Naruto however ignored that last part. He had no intention to rush things with her. She may have been ready physically, but there was no way he was going to simply take her virginity right off the bat. He started by kissing her, her tongue quickly meeting his and tasting his juices, "and Anko's as well", that thought causing a shiver of pleasure to run down her spine for some reason.
While their mouths were busy, Naruto's hands were massaging her breasts. They were not overly large even if she was in her fifteen year old form, though they were by not measure small, her 34 C being quite larger then a single hand could grasp. He squeezed them and rolled them in his hands, pinching and twisting her nipples earning whimpers of delight from Ino. Breaking the kiss he lowered his mouth to one of her nipple as took it in his mouth, sucking it deeply before biting it earning a yelp of both pain and pleasure.
After playing with her breasts a bit longer, he moved lower, to her drenched pussy. He merely flicked her clit with his tongue and it sent her into an orgasm, squirting her juices over his face.
"Shouldn't be surprised." Naruto thought as he watched her take deep, trembling breaths. "She must have been masturbating for quite a while as she watched me and Anko."
"I have." he heard in his mind and realized that either he had been thinking too loud or that Ino's mind reading ability has grown again. "I want you inside me…but I want to taste you first." came Ino's voice.
The blonde slowly got up and began stroking his member, before tentatively giving the head ad lick, closing her eyes to savor the taste of his and Anko's juices combined. After a few seconds her eyes snapped open and her mouth closed in on his cock so fast that he was afraid she would bite it off. Fortunately, she was merely eager and did not take more then a couple inches into her mouth, wisely deciding that she was in no way ready to replicate Anko's performance of nearly swallowing him whole. She began bobbing her head at a steady pace, her tongue flicking over his piss hole, occasionally stopping to lick his entire length. Eventually she stopped and laid down on the mattress, inviting him with her eyes.
Carefully positioning himself at her moist entrance, Naruto slowly pushed in and stopped after a few inches as he hit a barrier. He met her eyes in askance.
"I'm ready." Ino nodded. "Break through it and then stop inside so I can do a healing jutsu. I already did the contraceptive one."
"Okay." Naruto nodded and, pulling back slightly, she slammed trough, ripping her hymen and thus taking her virginity. He immediately stopped and gave her a kiss to distract her from the pain.
Ino smiled slightly and did the jutsu Tsunade had taught all the girls of the clan, a more effective variation of her own design. Not only did it completely head the wound, but it would also increase sensitivity to pleasure in the immediate area twofold for a short period of time.
"Okay, you can move." Ino told him as she removed her hand from her lower abdomen.
"Kami, you're so tight!" Naruto groaned throatily in her ear as he pumped into her at an increasing pace.
Ino herself could not answer. She was in pure bliss, nearing orgasm, and only managed a purr of pleasure.
"I'm gonna cum!" Naruto warned her.
"Fill me!" Ino groaned.
That was all Naruto needed to hear as he pulled back thrust his cock as deep as possible. Unknown to either of them, a slight side effect of Tsunade's jutsu was to relax the affected muscles so that there was as little pain as possible. So when Naruto thrust in, he speared through her cervix and straight into her womb before unleashing a huge torrent of cum, painting her insides white.
At this Ino's eyes snapped open, she released a screech of intense pleasure as her back arched and her eyes rolled back. She remained in this state, experiencing multiple orgasms, for nearly thirty seconds, at which point Naruto pulled out and she fell into a pleasure-induced unconsciousness.
"Well, damn." Naruto stared at her in slight shock, her face looking quite peculiar with her tongue hanging out slightly from the corner of her mouth, which was curved in a very satisfied smile. "Well, at least she enjoyed her first time." he smiled and lay down on the mattress as well and quickly fell asleep, unaware that due to Ino's slightly unstable mental powers many other women of his clan, most of them already declared fiancés of his, had felt that last chain of orgasms, the pleasure nearly knocking them out as well.
*************************
A.N.: First of all, I'm sorry it took so long to post this chapter. Like I said, I've had several computer problems. Also, college is not something one can afford to neglect.
I hope I've made up for my tardiness at least lightly by adding the lemons to the chapter, said lemons not being in the initial design.
The next chapter may be the last or second to last chapter before the timeskip, and contain the remaining fillers that I'm writing about. And before you ask, no, Naruto will not be leaving on a training trip. He will, however, be away from the village for long periods of time for… reasons that I will not mention yet.
I've also decided that no more Jinchuriki will be introduced before the timeskip, for the simple reason that the timing is not right. Having brought Yugito with Nibi, Roshi with Anya/Yonbi and Sextum/Sanbi into the fold in addition to Gaara with Ichibi and Naruto with Kyubi is quite enough, I believe. The Fuhen are already overpowered, so I'll give the bad guys some breathing room to grow into some half-decent punching bags at the very least.
And as for the many who keep telling me that the Fuhen are too powerful and nothing can challenge them… well, don't look out the window, 'cause Madara's dropping a meteor on you. Yeah, now THAT'S overpowered. Kukukukuku!
Also, I want to point something out to some of those who sent me private messages: your words are far more appreciated when they are in a review. The higher the count, the more inclined I am to sacrifice more of my free time and write the chapters faster.
In other word REVIEW DEAR READERS!
B.N To be completely honest, the lemons were a surprise to me, too! First thoughts were, 'since when did this get so sexy? o.O' and then I went with it. (Sexy time! Woot!) Not that it wasn't an unpleasant surprise... but I digress. It was amazing to finally be able to beta this (read: read it before you suckers) and now I'm going to send it back to him to publish!
