Chiba watched as a large being made out of flowing red chakra with 6 tails began rampaging about at the edge of the village! He could just barely make out four ninja wearing a familiar cloak battling it!
Despite his eyesight being worse than his observation Haki, Chiba could see that the ninja wore black cloaks with red clouds upon them, it was the unmistakable uniform of the Akatsuki!
Still confused, Chiba looked over at where Hiruzen and Orochimaru did battle and instantly understood what was happening.
Within the large barrier that burnt anyone who tried to enter, Chiba saw Hiruzen wearing his full Hokage gown and Orochimaru still wearing the Akatsuki Uniform!
'I see! If the the Uchiha clan wasn't exterminated, Itachi wouldnt be a rogue ninja and would never have joined the Akatsuki! After being banished from the village without warning earlier than expected, Orochimaru must have needed something to gain a footing while being chased by Jiraiya and Konoha, so he joined the Akatsuki... But why hadn't he left yet...'
While this question whirled around his head, Chiba decided to figure it out later as he rushed towards the Akatsuki members.
'Why is Naruto turning into the the nine tailed fox near the emergency shelter? If he was to turn, shouldn't it be near the Chunin exam area? Unless... It's not Naruto!'
Chiba realized a lot had change, going off of the assumption that Kushina had survived the birth of Naruto then she should still have the nine tailed fox inside of her!
As he neared the four Akatsuki members, Chiba felt a sense of relief wash over him as he saw who it was. It was the shark like man, Kisame, and the red haired boy Sasori! Thankfully the other two 'Akatsuki' members were judt sasori's puppets wearing cloaks, looking at the puppets however Chiba felt his relief disappear.
The first puppet was the 3rd Kazekage that Chiba knew Sasori already had, but the second puppet was the 4th Kazekage that Orochimaru had just killed and took his place! Both puppets were Hokage level threats!
Littered around the duo were dozens of dead Konoha ninja from young genins to old jounin, all dead.
As gold and iron sand rose up from the ground and tied the tailed beast down, Kisames blade latched onto the downed beast and began sucking out the red chakra at rapid speed.
With its chakra being drained away, the rage filled Nine tailed fox managed to smashed through the metal sand and began attacking the duo.
The iron and gold sand that held the tailed beast was used to defend the attack, easily taking the tail whip from the 6 tailed form of Kurama.
"You know I thought the nine tailed fox would be much harder than this, I guess the hardest part is gonna be containing the jinchuriki until we're ready for the fox." Kisame said, his sentient sword Samehada now extremely large and radiating red Chakra.
'Shit the nine tailed fox is too far gone to turn back normally! It either need to be drained of its chakra, or seal it once again!' Chiba hid, watching the Akatsuki fight the tailed beast.
Chiba didn't have any chakra at the moment, so thankfully neither Kisame or Sasori could sense him as he watched from the back. He didn't have any way to return the tailed fox back into a Jinchuriki, so Chiba watched the Akatsuki as he began brainstorming.
'The Akatsuki need the Jinchuriki alive so they're safe for now, but if the Jinchuriki of the Nine Tailed Fox isn't Naruto, it is definitely Kushina! Damn it!'
The idea of kushina, his master and one of his only friends, being forced to endure these attacks made Chiba's blood boil.
'Kisame and Sasori have to turn the ninetails back into a Jinchuriki, I could use them and let them stop the Nine tails but prevent them from taking the Jinchuriki... In order to revert them, Kisame will have to absorb all of its chakra... Can I take a nine tailed empowered Kisame in my state?'
Chiba silently debated, would he rather fight off the mindless nine tailed beast or fight Kisame who had all of the power of the Nine tailed beast focused into himself. The answer was clear when he thought about it like that and decided to make his move.
'Other ninja wouldnt know about it, but sasori's body isn't made of flesh but is instead just a puppet as well! He is functionally immortal except for the flesh core that he couldnt turn into puppet material, as that would kill him! I just need to find that flesh core!'
Chiba used his insanely strong body and Soru movement technique to flash into the shadows of the surrounding debri, appearing faster than the body flickering jutsu even without chakra!
Chiba silently made his way behind them, just ten feet away from them as the Kazekage puppets battled against Kurama.
Everything in existence has to have even a small amount of chakra to exist and with Chiba's chakra network crushed, it was impossible to be sensed!
Disappearing from where he stood, Chiba suddenly appeared behind the Akatsuki Duo!
Kisames eyes widened in shock as Chibas blade was ran through Sasori, slashing the puppet body to scrap as he finally saw his target, the flesh core!
Chiba didn't have the time or option to bargain with these two, and the destruction that they and Kurama caused had to be stopped immediately. As the flesh core floated mid air amongst the debri of its puppet vessel, Chiba's hand flew forwards and grabbed the vessel out of the air.
Without wasting time, Chiba's flesh broke apart the container of the fkesh core and stored Sasori's heart into his body preventing him from dying.
"Who the hell are you?" The large and imposing Samehada clashed against Chiba's sword Yakuza Kasen, making no headway.
After making sure Sasori's heart was safely stored in his body, Chiba finally focused his attention on Sasori.
"Your too strong to take lightly, leave now or I'll be forced to kill you." Chiba said, his voice carrying a hidden sadness thinking about having to end someone's life.
With Sasori defeated, the two puppets that were keeping Kurama at bay fell limp as the nine tailed beast roared out in anger and began trampling buildings once more.
"Leave now?! When things are just starting to get fun!" Putting more force into the blade, Chiba looked at the excited Kisame and wondered if he'll have to kill someone to stop the destruction that was befalling the Leaf.
