“Guy are you ready?”
“No Kakashi I’m not. Is what we are about to do really essential for our growth?”
“Yes Guy you need to throw away your weakness, your unwillingness to harm those that are innocent. You need to walk the true path of ninja. Did you really think that all we do as ninja is help old ladies cross the road or escort some rich noble from his doorstep to his garden? Wake up Guy! Ninja kill, we kill, we feed of war and chaos. Ninja have no use during times of peace. All we do is prepare for our next war. Guy you know what you signed up for when you became a ninja. Both our fathers died because of the unfairness of the ninja world, they both walked in the path of light and died because of it. Let’s walk the true dark path of shinobi and celebrate our victories with cups filled with our enemy’s blood.”
Guy looked into Kakashi’s eyes. He noticed one of them had changed into the Mangekyou pattern. Guy turned from Kakashi’s gaze and stared at the burning village below them. Once an ally of Konoha but now a training ground to rid the next generation off their emotions. He watched the embers float and twirl in the air; he smelled the smoke in the air and heard the cries for help coming from multiple directions. He hated the fact that in the face of all this chaos and pain he wanted nothing more than to try out a new series of moves he had been working on called “Night Guy”.
He turned to face the village and spoke while fighting to stop a smile forming on his face “ok Kakashi, let us become true shinobi and when Akatsuki or anyone wanting to cause harm to our village shows up we will make them beg for death”
Kakashi smiled at his old friend, comrade and brother “yes Guy let us take the first steps towards a better future”
As guy and Kakashi made their way towards the burning village the last of konoha’s innocence was destroyed and replaced with something more sinister
1 year after the Konoha invasion
Yahiko stood in the middle of a training area within an underground Akatsuki base. He had been swinging his sword continuously for the last minute while counting out each swing.
“One million nine hundred and ninety nine thousand nine hundred and ninety nine. Two million! Hahaha two million swings in one minute!” Yahiko declared with pride.
“Hehehe don’t lie just because I walked into the room.” Said Kisame as he and Itachi walked into the room.
“Hahaha Kisame-senpai I could never trick you. I actually only managed to reach 240”
“Hehehe my lessons have been working. You can now swing your sword 4 times per second without sacrificing the integrity of each swing. Add that to the fact that you were able to copy Samehada's abilities and it shows how much of a monster you have become while training under me”
[Heh Kisame couldn’t be more right. It took me a year to perfect copying Samehada’s abilities. Who knew that copying swords ability and actually being able to use them without mistakes would be this hard? ]
“Could you two stop talking about training and actually put all those wasted hours to use. One of my connections has revealed the location of one of our targets. His name is Rōshi; he is a shinobi of Iwagakure and the jinchūriki of the Four-Tails. Pain declared that if you manage to take him down by yourself you become a fully-fledged member of Akatsuki and can choose who you want to be partners with”
[Finally! I hate being on the same team with Itachi. Last year I warned Nagato that Itachi is not trustworthy but all he did was tell me to ‘observe him further’. Ever since I noticed Itachi didn’t seem too interested in the jinchūriki. He seemed more concerned with my fellow junior member Tobi and Tobi seemed to be the friendliest of all the members. ]
“Ok. So what do you know about Rōshi?” I tried my best not to sound eager.
“We only know his description. All his abilities are unknown”
[Why do I get the feeling Itachi is lying to me. He always withholds vital information which could get me killed. If he wanted me dead why didn’t he just do it himself, maybe having me die while fighting an enemy will give him plausible deniability]
“Ok so what’s his description, where can we find him and when are we leaving” I said clearly displaying the resentment I had towards Itachi.
“Hehehe. Now that the little fish has teeth it wants to swim with the sharks. Beware Itachi it looks like this one has his sights on you” [leave it to Kisame to say what’s on everyone’s minds]
“I don’t fear anyone. Yahiko if you have a problem with me don’t bitch about it. Do something.” Itachi paused and allowed his statement to linger while activating his Mangekyou.
[Damn. Why does it feel like Itachi is someone I can’t beat? Maybe he could have taken on Jiraiya without backup. Something tells me he is just holding back. But why? And last but not least did he just call me a bitch? ]

Itachi seemed satisfied with my lack of response “good. Now to answer your questions. He has red hair, moustache and beard which tapered off to a point. He has been seen wearing a large headpiece consisting of a three pointed crown-like ridge, bearing both his Iwagakure forehead protector. He was spotted in a nearby town and we are leaving immediately”
Right after Itachi finished speaking the trio put on their infamous Akatsuki robes and made their way to the town. They arrived after sunset and where greeted by bright neon lights in the shapes of various women and XXX signs
[Itachi forgot to mention this was a debauchery town. I mean do people actually live here. It’s like every establishment was meant for sex, alcohol or gambling.]
“Hmmm. Itachi. Yahiko. We will commence searching for the jinchūriki tomorrow. Tonight let’s find a place to rest. I also think it’s best if we all find separate places to stay. It will give us a better chance at bumping into our target.”
[I see what you’re trying to do. Well it is true all I have been doing since I reincarnated was killing and training. It won’t hurt to have a little fun once in a while right? Wait who am I trying to convince… time to spend the company funds for some 5 star fun]
“I agree with you Kisame. We can all meet at the entrance of the village tomorrow” [hohoho. Itachi you too!]
We all nodded and just like that a silent oath between men was made and soon after we all parted ways.
[Oh shit oh shit oh shit! What should I do first? Well alcohol doesn’t affect me because my poison resistance is off the charts. I don’t like gambling because I always loose when I make bets. That just leaves…]
To my surprise it was white the manifestation of my soul who replied my thoughts {S-E-X. That is the only option that remains and from what I can tell it was the first thing that popped into your mind the moment we arrived onii-chan. If it wasn’t for this big robe people would have seen your true sword fully activated and ready to penetrate!} White sounded like an anime high school girl.
[Hey don’t read my thoughts they are private. Plus I feel like you are speaking differently]
{Sorry I thought you were asking me for an answer. all I have to keep me busy all day is to go through your thoughts and past memories. Maybe that’s why I feel so free to speak with you onii-san. Actually from now on I have decided to speak more often and nothing you say can change that! Humph!}
[Past memories?] What was more disturbing than the scary ass hollow inside my soul speaking like an idiot was the fact that he had access to my past memories.
{I can see them but I won’t show you. After you see them you will change. I like this blood thirsty version more than the person you were before.}
[Whatever I don’t care anyway time to get laid]
{You do care. I can read your thoughts. Remember.}
I ignored white and made my way towards the nearest ‘hotel’. There was a muscular bouncer at the door watching as people made their way inside. [I wonder what a bouncer could do to a ninja. Sometimes I wonder how the normal people feel about overpowered super humans who defy their basic understanding]
As I walked in a butler dressed in a black suit led me to a lobby filled with women and men of all colours ages and ethnicities. [Ok looks like they have everything here. Is that an albino horse in the corner?]
Seeing the direction I was looking in the man said “I am sorry to say Brian the ninja horse is out of commission. He could not make it as a ninja but he is well known for his transformation techniques. He caught a nasty case of super ninja AIDs. I heard it’s strong enough to kill a shinobi with even the highest regenerative abilities. It’s such a shame as he was our highest earner. Even Nobles from faraway lands would come just to experience him.”
“Ok not here for the horse. Is ninja AIDs a thing? And if it is how can it be transferred?” I think I found my way of beating Itachi.
“Only by sharing chakra and body fluids at the same time. But whatever you are thinking I advise against it. The side effect of ninja aids is weakening of a shinobi and can cause that shinobi to cough up blood during fights several times before killing them”
*for fans who didn’t get this reference I was talking about Itachi vs. Sasuke. I swear Itachi had super ninja AIDs.’ He died of a mysterious illness’ my ass. So I’m just filling in some blanks which the original left out*
I walked up to Brian and said “I heard you couldn’t make it as a shinobi. Do you want to complete one last mission before you kick the bucket?”
He didn’t even think before he transformed back into his human form and shouted “yes! Please give me a mission!” [That was easy]
“Here is konoha’s bingo book. See this man Itachi Uchiha. He is an S rank badass who killed his entire clan for fun. I want you to give him ninja AIDs.”
“Hahahah. Finally a chance for my skills to shine. He won’t be the first shinobi I have trapped. But he definitely will be the last. The crown jewel of my collection!”
[This guy is dangerous. He may not have the chakra levels of those I have faced in the past but he definitely has a wicked mind-set]
I left Brian to go do what he had to do and decided to go wait at the entrance of the city until morning. Suddenly I didn’t feel like trying out what this city had to offer. As I made my way to the entrance I felt as though I was being watched. I looked around but I couldn’t spot the culprit. Only after I reached the entrance of the town did I hear footsteps following closely behind me.
“Akatsuki huh… it’s strange you managed to find me. I heard you always travel in pairs. Where is your partner?” the voice behind me sounded rough, aged and wise. When I turned around to see who it was I saw the man in front of me looked serene and war hardened.
[So this is Rōshi huh. His chakra feels animalistic. This is going to be a crazy fight]
“I don’t have a partner. I’m one of the stronger members of Akatsuki, having a partner would be overkill”
“Hmm. You are a horrible liar. So you truly must be as young as your face shows. You can never tell who someone is these days. But you have the smell of a rookie. I saw you leave Kisame and Itachi behind. You must be the brat who did a number on Konoha a year ago. I heard rumours but I couldn’t believe a new face caused all this trouble, rumour has it you are just Orochimaru’s next body”
“You talk too much lets fight!”
“See what I mean. Wet behind the ears. Every good ninja fight requires a dialogue which lasts 10 to 15 minutes”
[That sounds so familiar. The ninja talk for ten minutes then the episode ends right before the fight]
“Whatever let’s do this!”
