Chapter 2:

The Jashinists make a move

Naruto Shippuden: Rise of lord jashin



            Naruto upon reaching the village just then realized that the sun was already up, meaning that he had spent most of the night fighting that monster and his clothes were all now ragged up but never the less he decided to meet Tsunade who was still in office even though Kakashi had become the new hokage. Upon entering the office he saw Sakura and Rock lee talking to her and when they saw Naruto they all looked worried saying at the same time “what happened to you”, Naruto then proceeded to explain everything to them and upon hearing what Naruto had to say all three of them looked shocked and then Tsunade asked “so what happened to the black box after the fight, let’s start from there”, Naruto thought for a second and then in a slightly worried tone he says “I may have forgotten about it after the fight” Sakura upon hearing this gave Naruto a strong punch on his head and yelled and Naruto saying “how could you have forgotten you dim witted idiot I’ll kill you” leaving Naruto to only say “I’m sorry Sakura” but Tsunade managed to stop Sakura by saying a stern voice “That’s enough from the both of you, we need to retrieve the box immediately before somebody else gets their hands on it we don’t know how many Jashin worshipers are left go now” immediately Sakura, Naruto and rock lee dashed to the forest with Naruto guiding them to where the box was summoned and on arriving at the location, the giant black box stood there with all the seals and chains wrapped around it, upon seeing the box Naruto said “anyone have any ideas on how we are to carry this thing,” Sakura responded by saying “don’t worry about it, I brought a scroll” she then weaved hand seals and the box was sucked into the scroll. Sakura then carried the scroll and everyone returned back to the village where the scroll was handed to Tsunade and Tsunade in turn gave it to Orochimaru as he was the only one with the skills good enough to ascertain what was in the box without opening it.

             Naruto, Shikamaru, Sakura, lee, Choji and Ino went to the barbecue shop as they had completed their mission and Choji had requested to go there. As they were eating Naruto said in a tired tone “man, I wonder how long it will take for Orochimaru to finish his analysis on the box”, Sakura hearing this said to Naruto in a surprisingly calm voice “you will just have to be patient Naruto, analyzing a substance in a box without opening it is near impossible, I’m surprised Orochimaru even knows how to do it. Lady Tsunade said that it would be done in a couple of hours, in the mean time let’s enjoy the barbecue” she then continued to eat while Shikamaru commented “this is just a drag, we just finished fighting a war a few weeks ago and now this can’t I catch a break”. Rock lee then said in a cheerful voice “whatever the threat is I can face it head on, I’ve trained hard and learnt a few new techniques this last few weeks” while Ino then said “I doubt I will be of much help as my mind transfer jutsu has been on the frits since yesterday, apparently it’s a side effect from straining the brain too much.” Choji meanwhile was chowing down on the barbecue as he said “if you guys don’t hurry your food will be gone”, upon hearing this the others quickly rushed their food in order to prevent Choji from devouring everything.

After they were done at the barbecue place, they found a jonin waiting for them outside of the shop and upon seeing them he said “lord fifth, request to see the six of you, she says the matter is urgent”, upon delivering his message he turned into a puff of smoke as Shikamaru said “a shadow clone huh wonder why he didn’t come by himself, well it doesn’t matter, I guess we should start going”.

Upon their arrival to the office, Naruto, Sakura, Shikamaru, Ino, Choji and lee saw Orochimaru and Tsunade discussing about something but upon seeing them the two stopped their conversation and Orochimaru said in his normal snake like voice “I guess I will get straight to the point then, inside the box is a body that is imbued with a lot of dark chakra, but the body doesn’t seem to have any soul in it so for now it’s just a husk. I think that the sealing jutsu the sage of six paths used is one that separates the body of the person being sealed from their soul.” He then paused and looked around the room to see if the rest of them were following and upon looking at their faces he could tell that they were still with him, so he continued on “the sealing jutsu seems very similar to an Uzumaki fuin jutsu called the “sacred art of spirt fission”, although the two jutsu are different in the sense that while the Uzumaki fuin jutsu seals your mind away from your body in the sense that you can no longer make your body move in anyway like a paralysis, this jutsu on the other hand actually separates the mind from the body and makes them exist as two different entities. So hypothetically if they are to find where Jashin's mind is and undo the seal on both the body and the mind, Jashin would return.” After hearing this Naruto said “so all we have to do is find the mind and get to it before them right easy peasy”. Orochimaru then replied by saying in a calm snake like voice “easier said than done, to be able to harness more information I brought the corpse the man you fought back to my lab, and using a clone body I used EDO Tensei to bring him back to life, then I used a jutsu to put myself into his mind and that’s how I learnt that the man Naruto fought belongs to a group of fellow Jashin worshippers and they have managed to infuse Kaguya’s cells into their DNA and also that their bodies has been bio engineered to be able to regenerate and on top of that they have Hashirama’s cells too. One of them have even awoken to a sharingan, he is their strongest member with the name of Shigaraki, his sharingan prowess is on par with that of Madara’s, even being able to activate the rinnegan due to having Kaguya’s DNA the rest of them have power that are on par with that of Naruto and Sasuke so in order for the rest of you to be of any help in what is to come, you have to start training hard until you are as strong as Naruto is currently. In the meantime, Naruto would have to get stronger in order to face Shigaraki, meaning you would have to become Kaguya level in terms of strength.” After hearing this Naruto then asked a question saying “Hold on, do you know how the oni masked man was able to tap into such high amounts of dark chakra”, Orochimaru then responded by saying “ you have a good mind Naruto, I was also curious about that so I started doing some research and I discovered that the dark chakra in the box and the residue dark chakra in the body of the man were and 20percent match, 70percent belonged to a compound that strengthens the life force of a substance, while the remaining 10percent belonged to another compound that boosts aggression and other negative emotions. In other words, the dark chakra was artificially made, my guess is that after the members bodies are bi engineered, a mark like that of my curse mark is placed on them but instead of the mark giving the user access to senjutsu chakra, the mark gives a small amount of Jashin's dark chakra access to the user’s body where it reacts with the other two compounds in the body to artificially create dark chakra.” After letting everything Orochimaru said sink in, Tsunade then said “According to Orochimaru’s calculations, Jashin's mind should be located somewhere in the land of lightning, as Orochimaru has figured out that Jashin’s dark chakra can be used to locate where his parts are sealed. I’ve sent a battalion of high level jonin to retrieve the box where the mind is sealed in and after that we would move the boxes to two different dimensions to buy us sometime, meanwhile you all will be training as hard as you possibly can. The plan should buy us two months, so in two months you have to be stronger than you possibly can in order to stop this threat, you are now free to go”. Upon hearing Tsunade finish her speech they all left, each on different paths to commence their training. Meanwhile, in a dark cave somewhere in the outskirts of the land of grass, a group of four people gathered around a statue of a being that somewhat resembled an otsutski it hard the horns of a bull, a rinnesharingan in it’s left eye, a byakugan in it’s right and on it’ forehead it had a strange eye the sclera was white while both the pupil and the iris of the eye were bright yellow. The being’s statue had long hair that reached it’s back and the structure of it’s face seemed otsutski like, the statue also wore a robe that had Tomoe patterns on it like the robe of an otsutski. It seemed like an otsutski in everyway apart from the fact that it had something like an orb in the center of its chest and from that orb in its chest strange markings seemed to emerge and cover the statue’s entire body. One of the members that surrounded the statue had orange spikey hair that went down to his back, crimson red eyes and a very defined jaw line. He wore a black cloak that covered his entire body and had a smile that was so evil looking it would give people like Danzo the creeps. beside him was a woman with long blue hair, baby blue eyes and an expressionless face, she too wore a black cloak that covered her entire body and standing on the other side of the statue was a boy who seemed to be in his teenage years, around Naruto's age.  He had jet black hair and brown eyes his hair was cut in the block cut style and in his eyes one could see determination and purpose, the same could not be said for the person that stood beside the boy. The man who stood beside the boy was the only person that had the hoody of his black cloak on, underneath the cloak all that could be seen was the glowing crimson eyes of the sharingan and an evil smirk as he said "information has been passed on to me that the hidden leaf village, the village whose outskirts contained the body of lord jashin was able to retrieve the body after defeating Sectar. They have somehow learnt how to use our dark chakra as i can feel them as they have also been able to recover the mind of lord jashin and now i sense them very far away in the depths of another world which means that the two parts of our lord are no longer in this dimension, we would need the help of  a specific man if we are to be able to locate the body and the mind for the hidden leaf has a record for never leaking information no matter how dire the situation gets. our next mission is to find and retrieve Kazui, the rouge ninja scientist of the hidden grass.
