9 Snake squad?

Darui and the jonin escorted us into the village and my observation skills kicked in. Most of the people were stabbed in blue clothing with white body armour covering it. What was standing out though was how some dyed their hair certain colours.

The fabric on their hitai-ate was similarly coloured based on the person. My eyes darted around looking for more details. Chakra wooden buildings that integrate Into the rock of the mountain. My eyes looked down a side alley and I saw coloured symbols followed by musical notes.

Holy shit kumo has gang problems hahahahaha, I thought the musical thing was hilarious but this is way out of my predictions. I looked at one convenice store along the way and heard some jazz being played inside. I then noticed all the customers whether they be shinobi or civilians were wearing some article of green on their person.

We're in the mountains so there is bound to be a yodeller somewhere in this village. Which gang should I join? I gotta bust out the fleur de lis chain and paint my clothes with it. Purple is my colour baby, I got over that little urge to wear orange and bright reds. When I found the classic Naruto jacket I decided to burn it.

Sure it could have been used for early morning and late evening stealth for when the suns rays would have obscured me. But for anything else it was a beacon for kunai to stab me.

While I was checking the surroundings and making a mental map of the village Anko was striking up conversation with Darui. The prick tried flirting with her but she crushed his confidence using some of her snake bullshit. Seriously, sticking your tongue out and then making a comment around how snakes used their tongues to gather info isn't smart, neither is cracking jokes about a guys dick size in public. Based on his reaction though she must be accurate.

As if sensing my thoughts she turned to me, repeated the motion then bit her lips. Stranger danger! Oh wait she ain't a stranger so that won't fly.

Eventually we made it up a massive flight of stairs and into an office. The secretary was Mabui, a dark skinned silver haired buxom beauty who was happily reading some reverse icha icha. I noticed some presence hiding in the corner of the room observing us before it returned back to watching her. Is she about to be killed? Or just a stalker. Eh not my problem.

We entered the office and saw two hench black dudes. First had blonde dreadlocks and was scribbling away behind a desk whilst the other was beatboxing testing his lyrics.

The second ones head snapped to me, he jumped up and bellowed "Ey Yo! It's mista Nine-O, he's chillin in Kumo, what a show!"

The raikage looked up from his paper work to observe me, he knows how his brother speaks so he now knows I'm a legit jinchuriki.

I smirked "Sup Octopops, heard the cloud was chill so I came to rock!" B's mouth opened in awe at my short rhyme. He had an expression that was like -the legends are true!

A slammed the table "please do not tell me that you rap as well?!?!"

I grinned "nah I'm just screwing with you. Wasn't lying though. Kumo is much more chill than the other countries. Worst I'd get from joining you guys is maybe some distrust for being a potential spy or being a defector. The leaf might start harassing you a bunch more merely because I walked into your building."

He scoffed "of course they would! No good tree huggers are the peak of hypocrisy. Because of it my village has been prospering ever since the monkey began smoking up".

My eyebrows raised, so hiruzen started getting his green on a while back. Maybe one of his old teammates introduced him to a bad habit then started spiking his supply? I've heard worse.

Anko spoke up "how so?" Obviously questioning how the village has been prospering.

A smirked "hyuuga incident followed by the uchiha culling made do Jutsu users disappear from the open market. Not to mention the Kurama clan fuck up with the Yakumo girl. That village along with the others has been isolating bloodlines and clans for a good while. They've been searching for a chance to slip away."

He then pointed his muscular arms at me "you two are living proof. The first jinchuriki in history to abandon a village and yet another snake experiment."

Anko bristled at that before A raised a palm at her for her to remain calm. He continued "yes I know, poor choice of words but it's true. We have other people burned by Orochimaru within our ranks. He tried establishing labs in my land! We routed those out. Though most don't leave the hospital due to the borderline irreversible things done to them."

I spoke out "ok so what I'm getting from this conversation is that you planned for people like us to come and want us on a squad of like minded individuals which your probably going to use as a PR stunt to bolster recruiting foreign ninja".

He grinned "that's the exact kind of analytical skills my ninja need. Konoha are fools for crushing their talent the way they do, shame they have an abundance of it. Yes I want you to join my snake squad. A gathering of Orochimaru survivors who want him dead and don't give a shit about the leaf".

Anko spoke up with a pissed off tone "what's the pay?" A sat down and locked his finger together processing. He looked at me then her before speaking again.

"The kids an uzumaki meaning he'll need fuinjutsu scrolls which we have. I can feel his lightning from here meaning we can pay him in jutsu and chakra theory as well. You I can give detailed data on the curse mark program which we recovered and rare poisonous materials.

An uzumaki jinchuriki is an S-rank guarantee, a summoner skilled in poisons and katon is an A-rank. I'm willing to make concessions based on your performance during the evaluation."

"What about the members?" I asked alluding to the snake squad. As basic as the title is it does fit. A pulled out two files and tossed them at me, they were coated in lightning chakra meaning they'd shred someone unprepared. I just rolled my eyes before plucking them out of the air at blinding speeds.

My hair stood on end as I began to read the files widening my eyes. I'll be damned, these two files contained details about characters from other series.

Soi fon- member of the fon clan who specialise in infiltration. Orochimaru heavily experimented on her by implanting the Suzumebachi. The snake sage genetically engineered a Kaguya bone implant for the right arm that contains ink developed from the 8 tails ink release. She became a test subject for a more efficient method of applying the crude seal. The result was a death seal matching the description of the bleach zanpakuto.

She also holds a grudge against the snake for kidnapping her love? Oh this worlds yoruichi was dissected. Sheeeesh, the Shihōin clan had the ability to turn into an animal with most being cats. Orochimaru chopped her up to figure out how to become a snake himself. That explains his true form.

Current status? Oh she's stalking Mabui, that's who I sensed. Soi fon went black so she couldn't go back heh~ she prefers dark meat. Skills include a mastery of the body flicker, wind style, her families shunko technique and poisons? Hmm maybe I could tweak her implant so she could apply other seals.

Kirigakure no shura- an uzumaki descendant picked you from kirigakure. She has an immense talent for kenjutsu and was made into a snake summoner. She was a test subject for human storage seals, Orochimaru attempted to make an internal seal for a kusanagi blade. Oh? So that's how he stores it in his throat or in a snake. The mark is tattoo'd over her belly.

The woman has a personality and similar drinking habit to the blue exorcist version. Though she's a lot stronger. Her kusanagi blade is also an experiment that Orochimaru created using some stuff stolen from ryuuchi cave.

I looked at the rest of the list but they were just patient files containing what was done to them and what bloodlines they were infused with.

I snapped them shut and looked at the raikage "so what strip club am I signing up raikage sama?"

He just frowned whilst B burst out laughing. The kage spoke up "again you need to go through the tests. I'm aiming for three personally but you brought a companion who looks like she'll shank me if I do that so we're tabling this discussion for now. Go to Mabui and have her take you down to the med labs. Also introduce yourself to Soifon."

We shrugged and proceeded to follow his instructions. As we greeted the woman I felt a pointy object press against my side. I turned and saw an angry glare from a short haired woman.

"Weak" was what she said before I smirked and poofed. Her eyes widened before she felt an arm wrap around her shoulder. "Yeah that's kinda the idea, makes people let their guard down. Names Naruto."

She looked back at me before grunting out "Soifon" before she blurred away. I think I made a good first impression.

"And I am the Sexy Snake Mistress Anko Mitarashi!" Anko called out to the wind. I just deadpanned her and continued walking making her click her tongue and pull out a stick of dango from her storage seal. At least she didn't smash a window.
