The Red Flash Chapter 47 (Five out of Nine) (Patreon)

In the Village Hidden in the Leaves, the Sandaime Hokage Sarutobi  Hiruzen was seated in a large chair in front of a large table with multiple people sitting along the sides. They were the most powerful people in the village, from clan heads to wealthy businessmen.

The civilian side was on the right whilst the shinobi side was on the left,  Hiruzen's teammates Koharu and Homura were seated on his right and left.

The God of Shinobi cleared his throat, whatever idle conversations that had been going on stopped. Hiruzen stood up, "as you  all know the Chunin Exams are soon to begin, this time it will be in our  village," he paused, "now as you know that means that other Genin will  be coming from their respective villages."

"We are aware of this  Hokage-sama, why have you called upon this meeting if you are just  stating what we already know?" Hiashi Hyuga asked the elderly Kage.

"I received a request from Kumo for two of their Genin teams to participate."

Everyone was quiet at this, while they weren't currently fighting each other,  Kumo and Konoha had always been enemies in the past, in fact, they hadn't heard anything important from Kumo for quite a while. For them to send two Genin teams meant they were top Genin.

"Is there anyone of interest in either team?"Inoichi Yamanaka asked.

Hiruzen nodded his head "yes there is, a young girl around the age of 14 and a half, his name is Gitago Gukano"

Gasps came from the civilian side while the shinobi only had widened eyebrows, everyone knew of the Gukano clan. They were known for their red lightning bloodline.

"But Hokage-sama the Gukano clan only have three members, and none of them is a child." A fat balding civilian by the name of Kurdo exclaimed.

"It appears there is one more, not only that but from what I know is that Gitago has been trained by The Raikage himself," Hiruzen said. He knew according to Jiraiya that they had sent the Jinchuuriki of the Demon Cat as well, but Danzo didn't really need to know that part.

He hoped Ghost could start 'The Clean' plan, if everything could go according to plan, then Danzo will soon pay for what he had done.

Everyone couldn't hide their surprise, to find out the Raikage had a student under his wing they were just now finding out about, it was quite a surprise.

A  man covered in bandages and his arm in a sling spoke up "Hiruzen I  suggest that when the boy comes for the exams we send in a team to  eliminate or capture him, he no doubts knows things that would be  beneficial for Konoha."

The Third glared at the man "no Danzo we will do no such thing, the Chunin exams are to support and maintain peace, if we were to kill the boy then the Raikage will probably suspect something and would no doubt declare war with us, a war we could not win as few would side with us if they thought we weren't below the idea of killing a child during the Chunin Exams, the Nine tails attack and the death of Minato have wounded us severely we would be walking into our own graves," Sarutobi said bluntly where Danzo scowled.

"The Exams will begin in a week, I will be meeting with the Jonin  Sensei's to see what Genin of ours will be participating, if I am correct most of your children will be participating, "Sarutobi said to the clan heads where they nodded their heads.

"I have the belief that they will do well in the Exam, the Will of Fire burns strong in them. I  have a feeling this Exam will be quite interesting." With that said and done the Hokage left the room with the others getting up from their chairs and left the room too.

Fuu

She, her friend Ashara and the third member of their team, a boy named Ikashu arrived in Konoha. Fuu could hardly control herself at this point

Fuu had grown and changed since the last time she saw Naruto-kun, she now had straight, spiky hair that was a distinctive mint green in colour that almost reached her shoulders and framed her face and had tan, caramel-coloured skin. She wore a white, sleeveless midriff shirt and a short matching skirt and white shinobi sandals, along with bandages under her shirt that went halfway down her stomach and from her skirt halfway down her thighs and a pair of long, white armlets.

She could see the gates from where they were, her face a big smile, her legs jumping up and down, she couldn't contain herself, it had been more than five years since she last saw Naruto.

She wondered how he looked now, was he still as cute as she remembered him, just the thought of him, made her cheek blush, turning pink. She wondered how strong he was now, his face and his cute whiskers, his ocean blue-eyes, that made her feel a tingle in her stomach, almost like butterflies in her tummy, how long his hair was now, she wondered about his muscular body.

Ashara on the other hand looked at her friend with a raised eyebrow, while she too couldn't wait to meet Naru-kun, she was holding herself back.

The past five years she has grown into a beautiful woman, buxom and beautiful, with white skin, large purple eyes and long, thick red hair that falls in ringlets to the middle of her back. She has full lips, a husky voice, and round ripe breasts. Her face was in a shape of a heart, small forehead and a small straight nose, sharp like a blade, wearing a red shirt that had secret seals drawn in her shoulders.

A small opening in her chest showing her cleavage, The sleeve of her right hand was cut open up to her elbow, the sword of her mother "Dākuburēdo" tightened behind her back.

Wearing darkened red pants, that had dark lines around her thighs that reached to her feet. Dark sandal shoes with a small dagger hidden in a small seal in the left sandal.

Small pouches tightened around her hip, filled with sealing scrolls.

The Phoenix seal in her right wrist had grown a great significance, now she had the wings and a small head of a Phoenix, the seal hasn't fully appeared yet, but Asha hoped to be able to summon a Phoenix soon.

In her mind was what Roshi told her two years ago.

"There's another Uzumaki, but his chakra is Dark"

Ashara wasn't sure how could Uncle Roshi know about it and why would the chakra be dark, she had figured that whoever the other Uzumaki is, he must hate what the villages had done to Uzumaki Clan.

Asha couldn't wait until she could tell Naruto about uncle Roshi, he wasn't really his uncle by blood, but the old man had told her that she could call him Uncle if she wished to.

Ashara escaped her thoughts when they reached the gates of Konoha, the two guards eyed them and their sensei before letting them to walk inside, but Ashara could tell that they mainly focused on her. Almost as they recognized her from somewhere. She wondered why but decided that it didn't matter much.

"Did you see her hair?! She looks like The Red Death" one of them said to the other shinobi, the second one nodded his head in agreement.

Soon they reached the hotel where they would be staying, walking inside the room, their Jonin turned to look at them.

"You can walk around and explore the village, but I want no problem whatsoever from any of you" Jonin demanded with a strict tone pointing a finger at each one of them.

Ashara rolled her eyes in slight annoyance, Ikashu looked to be with his mind completely somewhere else, while Fuu was her usual happy self, her bright and cute smile not leaving her face.

"Taku-sensei you know we would never do anything," Fuu said innocently. Their sensei had a tick mark on his forehead, while true Fuu never really caused problems but her happy attitude was really annoying sometimes.

"Ah, Fuu, just don't go around making friends and we will be okay," Ikashu said already half-asleep on the couch. Right now Their Sensei was even more annoyed and marched towards Ikashu and grabbed his left ear tightly.

He started yelling in pain while their sensei leaned closer to his right ear.

"For The LAST TIME, DON'T Sleep" their sensei yelled at his ear making him hear an ongoing strange sound on his brain, while Fuu was giggling cutely.

After a few seconds, the sound went away. "Fine. Just don't be surprised when I don't grow enough" Ikashu said in defeat.

Their sensei nodded his head and left the room, Ashara turned to look at Fuu and noticed that Ishaku had already fallen into a deep sleep and was snoring like there was no tomorrow.

Asha gestured for Fuu to follow her. Walking outside, they jumped at the top of a roof to look at the village, she could see houses as far as the eye could see, The Hidden Leaf Village was Indeed very large, and the most amazing thing to Asha was the statue of the previous Hokage.

"Wonder how it looks from up there," Fuu said looking up at the statue of the fourth Hokage. Ashara wondered if Naruto had taken a lot after his father in looks, while his hair was all from Kushina Uzumaki (The Red Death), but she wondered if his handsome face was from his father.

"Can you sense him?" Fuu suddenly asked Asha, the young redhead escaped her thoughts. She focused and could feel a large spike of chakra coming from close to their location. Before she could tell Fuu to follow her, the Jinchuuriki girl was jumping towards the location. Asha soon followed behind her.

"This way, Chomei tells me she can feel the furball from that location" Fuu informed her pointing a finger towards a place between a few buildings. Asha nodded in understanding and wondered what could make Naruto to raise his chakra and wondered if she would need to protect him.

Naruto

"Mother will have your blood..." but before Gaara could do anything, two voices interrupted them.

"Oj Naru-kun, always searching for trouble"

"You haven't changed"

Naruto didn't need to look to know who was talking.

"Is been a long time...Asha-chan and Fuu-chan"

Everyone looked up in time to see two girls jumping down behind the Suna Shinobi, Naruto recognized both of them immediately. Fuu looked much cuter and prettier than ever before, her smile on her face.

While Ashara looked gorgeously beautiful, but Naruto noticed the glare she was giving the Jinchuuriki of Shukaku.

Before Naruto could talk to them, Fuu threw herself in his arms like an arrow, almost making him fall to the ground.

"Is Good to see you Naruto-kun?" she said softly on his ear while rubbing her cheek against his, usually Naruto would hug her back but couldn't help but blush, from her close contact, her skin send shivers in his whole body like electricity, she smelled like fresh mint, her soft breasts felt good against his chest, and Naruto felt a sensation on the middle of his body.

"Fuu, perhaps you should let him go before you crush him," Ashara said in annoyance while still keeping an eye on the redhead Jinchuuriki. Ashara could feel the Jinchuuriki inside him and wondered which one he had but what bothered her was his ice glare. Filled with hatred and anger, and a small hint of ... sadness.

Naruto pulled away smiling brightly at Fuu, who smiled back. "Is so good to see you Fuu-chan. You look amazing" he said smiling from ear to ear. Fuu blushed from his compliment, something that was noticed by everyone. His attention turned to look at the redhead girl walking closer to him.

"Asha, you have ... changed, you look beautiful," Naruto said with a small wink that made her blush. Ashara beamed at him and threw her arms around him, hugging him close to her. Her height same as his, she could feel his heartbeat, beating faster for her and Fuu.

Naruto felt the strong scent of nature in her, a fresh scent, the same he felt whenever he was close to a river.

Ashara closed her eyes and felt the strong build body beneath his clothes, the feeling of his strong build, made her feel something... funny.

Pulling away, she looked at his blue eyes for a second before they all turned to look at Gaara who looked angry. Naruto took a step forward thinking that he might try anything.

"Why do you look so gloom Shukaku-kun, we are all friends here," Fuu said smiling leaning closer to Gaara.

With that said, the Sand shinobis froze in place, they were sure right now that nothing could stop Gaara from going berserk, ruining the mission before it even began.

Sakura on the other hand looked ready to run away from the murderous glare from the Chibi Jinchuuriki. He released his KI, which made Sakura fall to her knees, barely being able to breathe, thankfully Konohamaru and his friends had left before this could escalate.

Temari and Kankuro were shaking like leaf and felt like they returned back in time when their little brother had first lost control, the images of what Gaara did many years ago were in their minds.

While Fuu was smiling, she was prepared if one tail-kun wanted to fight them, Ashara moved her hand on the pommel of her sword. While Naruto looked relaxed.

"It seems is true, even allied villages act like assholes towards each other" they all turned to see a bunch of new faces, and Naruto couldn't help but grin.

"Is there any gathering that I don't know about?" All five Bijuu asked at the same time.

1

"What do you mean mother?" Gaara asked focused on the new faces, while still being wary of the silly girl.

"Don't do anything right now, The girl with the ponytail is The damn cat, while the one with big black eyes is Hachibi" Shukaka spoke in his head and Gaara nodded while still feeling a strange feeling now that he was surrounded by four people who were just like him.

2

"What do you mean Nibi?" Yugito asked while looking at the handsome man in front of her, while it slightly irked her to see him with two other women, she still liked what she saw.

Knowing what her Jinchuuriki was thinking, usually, she would tease her, but right now. The situation was a bit serious.

"The hot one is Number 9, the short one with a large strange bag tightened to his back is Number 1 and the girl with orange eyes is Number 7 but don't underestimate any of them. I can tell each one of them at least talks with their respective Jinchuuriki" Nibi warned.

7

"What do you mean Chomei?" Fuu asked happily to make new friends, especially to meet new people that are like her.

"The hungry girl is Matatabi, and the stupid one is Gyuki" Chomei replied with a hint of happiness to meet her brothers and sister again after such a long time.

8

"What isss that yooouu might meeeaaan? Are you talking about the angry fox or the cocky Number One" Bee asked moving his hands around like an idiot.

Hachibi sighed tired of his stupid rap, it was worthless.

"Yes, you baka, but don't lose your focus. The redhead fox is not to be taken lightly" Gyuki warned hoping that the warning would actually go through his head for once.

"Is good to meet you" Naruto said taking a step closer. "Miss two and mister eight" he stated grinning.

Sakura looked confused about what was happening, while Temari and Kankuro looked horrified, Gaara on other hand had a strange creepy smile on his face.

"I'm nine, Furball wants to say 'Hi' " Naruto said earning a growl from Kurama.

"Why would I say 'Hi'. I'm the Kyuubi, why should I care about my worthless brothers and sisters" Kurama screamed in his head.

Naruto chuckled slightly.

Bee looked genuinely surprised to hear that apparently mister nine was talking with his host.

"It seems Kurama has ... changed. That's New. Never saw that one coming" Hachibi stated while Nibi was thinking the same words with Yugito.

Knowing they hadn't introduced themselves yet, Yugito walked first. "My name is Yugito, the idiot behind me is Bee-sensei"

"My name is Fuu. I'm lucky Seven. Is amazing to meet new friends"

"My name is Naruto, is nice to meet you all"

"My nnnname is Killer Beeeee. I and Hachibi stick like a bee" Bee said with a strange tone and voice that Naruto didn't quite understand him, while Yugito was shaking her head.

"You said your name is Fuu. I will Enjoy spilling your blood" Gaara threatened with a cold look.

Fuu just laughed it off and leaned closer. "I don't like to fight friends but if you hurt my best friends, you will find that you won't like the results" Fuu replied smiling but her eyes looked like a darker orange. And a darker aura had surrendered her, Ashara recognized the chakra as Chomei's chakra.

Gaara kept his cold glare, he glanced at Naruto before walking away from them, followed by his siblings.

The dark aura around Fuu disappeared and she turned around with the same smile as if nothing happened.

Yugito was about to say something to Naruto when they saw Samui walking towards them.

"Sensei, come on" she shouted at them.

"Good to meet you, hope we meet again mister nine," Bee said and jumped away.

"See you later handsome," Yugito said with a wink making Naruto blush.

Now that things has finally settled down, Naruto turned to Asha and Fuu.

"How about some ramen?" Naruto asked to hope to catch up with Fuu-chan and Asha-chan.

They both nodded immediately and followed Naruto behind talking with him.

When they left, Sakura was still left and looked angry, she couldn't believe that the redhead and the blonde girl were so much prettier than her, she could only thank the gods that Sasuke wasn't there.

Kakashi

"So, what are we going to do today?" Kakashi mused, glancing around her apartment.

Finished with her breakfast, Anko pushed her plate aside, resting her elbow on the table. "Well, I have been pretty lax with my training lately." She grinned. "What do you say to a sparring match?"

"You want to spar with me?"

"Why not?"

She was an excellent Jonin, but to be honest, Kakashi doubted her ability to beat him. Not many had claimed that distinct honour, and those who had been dangerous enemies.

"You're not scared are you," she asked, her grin turning into a smirk.

"Now why would I possibly be scared of a sparring match with you? It isn't like I'd ever lost..."

She stood and took her dishes to the sink, feeling a new satisfaction when she felt his eyes following her again. "Then you have nothing to worry about, do you? What's the harm in accepting?"

"You'd only get angry with me again."

"Are you sure, I didn't know you for an arrogant?"

"It's not arrogance. It's honesty. Each time I give you a fair warning, and each time I win, which leaves you upset with me."

Anko placed her hands on the table next to him and stared down into that lone, grey eye. "Put up. Or shut up."

Heaving a great sigh, Kakashi stood from the table. "If you insist... I'll meet you at the fifth training ground in thirty minutes."

"Oh, I look forward to it..."

Anko arrived early, as per her usual, and Kakashi... Well, he was, of course, late. By another thirty minutes to be exact. Anko grew more and more impatient as the minutes ticked by until finally, she decided to practice her already perfect aim by littering the trees around the clearing with shuriken and kunai knives.

When Kakashi finally showed up, he had the audacity to look guilty. "Sorry, I'm late. I was—"

"Oh save it. You're not sorry, and you never have a good excuse. You're habitually late, and you always will be."

He blinked at her. "Excuse me for trying..."

She gave a knowing smile, one hand on her hip. "So, are we going to do this or what, Kashi-kun?"

"Whenever you're ready to lose, Anko-chan."

She smirked.

After retrieving her kunai, as well as her shuriken, Kakashi and Anko took their stances. Truth be told, Anko had been looking forward to facing off against Kakashi for quite some time. She knew he was a skilled and powerful ninja. She'd seen it with her own eyes. It was different to be on the edge of fighting him herself, however. Part of her feared she may be beaten, but the other part was simply anxious to clash with the fierceness that was Kakashi of the Sharingan. Although he did not lift his headband to reveal his left eye, she could see the seriousness in his right one, in the hard lines of the visible portion of his face, and in the way he looked up at her from under his low brow.

Even from across the clearing, she could feel his ferocity as he geared up to give this match everything that he had. She had come to know his more casual side. Now she was eager to experience his raw power.

She licked her lips and grinned. 'This is gonna be fun...'

When Anko made the first move, the battle was on. Kakashi, like all of the other Jonin, knew that despite her small stature, Orochimaru's former student was not to be underestimated. She was fast and eerily skilled with both close and far range combat. To say that Kakashi had his hands full was putting it lightly—though he had no doubts that he would win.

They were pretty even in terms of skill, and just when one of them thought they had the other beaten, the tables would turn. Kakashi had to admit that Anko was quite unpredictable. Her mind worked quickly as she found a way to counter almost every move he made. She was a strong fighter, and when they clashed, he looked into her eyes and admired the fire that burned within them.

'Beautiful...'

He caught himself staring into those eyes just a little too long, and he managed to jump away from her before she threw her leg out to swipe his from under him.

"Fire Style, Fireball Jutsu!"

Anko leapt out of the way just in time as flames consumed the clearing. Kakashi waited until all the fire had dissipated hoping he'd gotten her with that attack, but he was disappointed to see that she had evaded him yet again.

He barely had time to blink when he felt her chest against his back, her kunai at his neck.

"You've gotta be quicker than that, Kakashi," she chastised him mockingly.

Anko was immensely enjoying their match. His heat, his passion, his energy, his power, his ferocity—they told the tale of Kakashi's true strength and prowess. They were also telling of the man's virility, and the reality that Kakashi was a man among men only elevated her heartrate and got her hot under the collar.

Turning around, their eyes met again and this time, Anko pulled up his mask and kissed him fully on the lips, Kakashi was caught by surprise but kissed back just as eagerly.

Anko put her legs between his legs, feeling his hard cock against his pants.

Pulling away, they looked at each other's eyes breathing heavily.

"In my apartment..."
