40 FINAL WAR PART 1

Amegakure, Highest tower in the village

2 women and a man are seen discussing among each other. They are none other than Nagato, Konan and Ahmya Uzumaki. Their topic, is the ongoing fight between Ichika and Akatsuki.

"Elder brother Nagato, are you sure, you don't wanna participate in this fight. If we don't participate, we may invite the wrath of other members."- Ahmya

"The sole reason Akatsuki was formed is to spread peace and harmony. After Yahiko death, i went a bit astray and wanted to bring peace through destruction. But with the events unfolding on the continent, there is no place for an organisation like Akatsuki. Because of Ichika Hime, all the villages and countries formed strong bonds between themselves and are moving as a single entity. They stopped fighting among themselves for more than a decade now. Also there is this rule, if any single Country or village breaks the coalition laws, the other members will completely obliterate then with full force. So i guess there won't be any fools trying to test the might of coalition army strength."- Nagato

Ahmya and Konan, clearly knew about these too, the bonding between the countries brought a completely new breath to the continent.

"Elder brother, didn't Madara sama oppose you, when you left the organisation?"-Ahmya

"Nope. He clearly knew my determination so he just let me go on 2 conditions. That i will revive him back to life when he wants and i have to give him back his Rinnegan eyes. I don't care about either of those at this moment"- Nagato

"Then, what about Zetsu? Nagato. He killed Yahiko and was the major reason behind our suffering"- Konan

Nagato and Konan were always wary of Tobi and his follower Zetsu. So when the Akatsuki members were given the rings as proof as its members, he created them with his Chakra Black Receivers. In that way he can spy and listen to all the conversation between Akatsuki members. It is during the Ambush of Ichika hime, that he came to know about Zetsu killing Yahiko, to awaken his true Rinnegan abilities. He was furious at that point, when learning the truth and wanted to destroy everyone, but was calmed down by Konan. After that he went to meet up with Ichika Hime secretly. All he got was a single answer, that Zetsu will make up for his evil deeds in the future.

"Ichika Hime promised me to punish him. If she doesn't, then we can kill him any time."- Nagato

"Ahmya, we have a reason to abandon Akatsuki. But what about you?"- Konan

"Heh, you are the only two people who treated me as a person, while the rest just treated me as a tool. I already repaid them by giving them a lot of seals. If they are still not satisfied by it, they can come at me anytime."-Ahmya.

SHINOBI HEADQUARTERS, KUMOGAKURE.

Hiruzen, Granny Naori, Lady Chiyo, Aito Yotsuki, Mabui, Inoichi Yamanaka and Shikaku Nara are observing the fights between Ichika, Madara and Akira through Hiruzen Sarutobi's

"Crystal Ball : Telescope Technique". This technique uses the crystal ball to track particular individual actions anywhere they are. The only restriction for this technique, the user must know that individual's chakra pattern.

Currently Hiruzen was glad, that he retired as a Hokage, otherwise he would stand no chance against these monsters. Be it their speed, chakra levels and Jutsu control is leagues above his own.

"Scary, i don't even want to go anywhere near them."-Mabui

"So this is the strength of your little apprentice, Naori? With this strength alone, she totally deserved to be qualified as the supreme commander of our forces. In the past between duels of Ichika girl and Madara, Hiruzen was ordered to not spy on their battles. But today Shikaku want to guage the strength of this barbarian prince, for future references. So what do you think of this fight so far Shikaku kun?- Lady Chiyo

"I can't tell why, but my senses are screaming something is definitely wrong with Ichika hime and Madara sama. From what i know, the battle should have come to a conclusion by now. The Barbarian Crown Prince is also a very strong opponent but not strong enough to trouble Hime sama."- Shikaku

"Shikaku kun is right. That child is special. Just what is going through her mind? The fight should have concluded a long time ago, if she was even 10% serious"- Granny Naori.

"She is trying to slowly break down the superiority complex of that prince."- Hiruzen

All of those present turned towards Hiruzen Sarutobi, as if expecting a proper explanation.

"From the intel gathered by Ichika hime, we know that the barbarians worship the strong. But it is only restricted to normal populace. To break down that prince, she must drive him to hopelessness by clearly demonstrating the gap between the two. Madara presence only added to her goals."-Hiruzen

"Hiruzen sama, are you implying, from the beginning Hime sama wanted to thrash that prince? Why don't she just kill him?"-Inoichi

"When it comes to strength, she is the strongest for sure. But she is a soft person at heart. She will only resort to killing, when there is no more options. She want to send a message through Akira to the Barbarian Emperor, that we are not weak. If she were to kill him, someone else will take his position and rally the troops in the name of revenge for the crown prince. Which will only cause a cycle of wars between our two continents. But if she were to mentally scar him and send him back, With the status of crown prince and commander in chief, he will become the next Emperor for sure and as long as he is the Emperor, he will never be determined enough to invade our continent. As for the next generation after him, we will have enough time to grow strong ourselves in case another invasion occurs. Also there is an another hidden motive behind this. Currently we are fighting as one, because there is a strong opponent for us to deal individually, which made us to forge an alliance to fight this threat. But if the threat is to be vanished, With time, at some point, we will all go back to the way of killing each other. Human mind is fragile and their ambitions for power are always sky high. So as long as we are reminded of the Barbarian continent, our continent will also stay united. That girl she planned this all from the beginning, incase she is not around anymore"-Hiruzen.

All of them nodded at Hiruzen words and totally agreed with his title of professor. After his explanation, the fog thats has been clouding their minds cleared completely.

"Hiruzen Sama, sometimes i feel we Nara are not worthy of the smartest clan on the continent, when we compared to her. But today confirmed my belief, that we will never match her intelligence."- Shikaku

"True Shikaku kun, but you have your strengths too. Remember you are the chief strategist of the combined forces."- Aito Yotsuki.

The battle between the 3 of them was going for a while, when Madara summoned the juubi, then Akatsuki members along with the revived ninjas.

"That's third Raikage. How can he do that to a hero? Also those 2 gold and silver brothers"- Aito

"Third kazekage too. We never knew what happened to him, if they were able to succeed in reviving him, then that means Akatsuki is behind his missing. My grandson Sasori is also present."- Lady Chiyo.

"Madra is totally hell bent on killing both Ichika hime and Akira. He wants to fan the flames between our two continents, what a vile person."-Mabui

Before Shikaku could give orders, he saw hordes of Monsters appearing through the fog. They easily number in millions. It totally scared the living daylights of all those who are watching it.

"Inochi, connect me to the Kumogakure Fort immediately. Even if Hime is strong, these numbers are enough to kill her."- Shikaku

Inochi immediately connected himself to the communication link and contacted Ao who is stationed at the Kumogakure Fort. As soon as the link is connected, Shikaku quickly went through his instructions.

"Ao san, immediately order the Ninjas stationed at the fort to move to the battle zone of Ichika and Madara. Madara completely brought out his troops and planning to kill her. Also out of nowhere millions of monsters appeared at the scene. Tell the civilian warriors to man the fort walls, while the ninjas are to move completely and protect Hime san without failure"- Shikaku.

Ao almost jumped up when he heard millions of monsters and immediately shouted the orders imbuing his voice with chakra, so that all the officers in the fort can hear him.

"NINJA SOLDIERS EMERGENCY. COMPLETELY EQUIP YOURSELVES AND HEAD TO THE BATTLE ZONE OF ICHIKA AND MADARA. IT WAS AMBUSH PLANNED BY MADARA TO KILL THE SUPREME COMMANDER. ALSO MILLIONS OF MONSTERS APPEARED ON THE LOCATION. EXPECT FIERCE FIGHTING. YOUR MISSION IS TO SAVE THE SUPREME COMMANDER AT ALL COSTS. CIVILIAN SOLDIERS ARE TO TAKE OVER THE DEFENCE OF FORT WALLS."-Ao

Ao instructions were clear enough for all the soldiers to follow.

"Damnit, i was this close from inspiration, from finishing the best volume in the ICHA ICHA series."- Jiraiya.

"Alright ya fool brothers, let's show our jinchuriki power and rescue the boss lady"- Killer B

With that said, all the jinchuriki started to move out.

"Wait for me elder sister"- Naruto and Gaara

Rasa, Terumi, Onoki and A also clearly heard that voice and moved ahead without a second late leaving the soldiers behind

"That bastard, i thought there was some hope for an alliance, but in the end he is still that power hungry fool"- Onoki

"Don't forget there are also monsters we have to deal with"- Terumi

NEARBY BARBARIAN MILITARY CAMP

All the barbarians soldiers are taking a good rest after having their lunch. Akira's four generals Isamu, Kenta, Takeshi and Shun are directing the logistics department to properly arrange the military barracks. They all know this will be a long and enduring battle, so they want to make sure, the military encampment is without any loopholes for any infiltration or assassination from enemies. When all 4 of them were discussing in the military tent, they heard a familiar screech of their Lord's summon, but this time the voice carried panic and fear.

"Lord Akira is surrounded by millions of monsters from monster continent. Hurry up and gather the soldiers or you will have to answer to the Emperor,if anything were to happen to him"- Garuda Eagle

They are not afraid of their Emperor, but their Lord Akira, who treated them all like his brothers.

"ALRIGHT YOU BASTARDS, REST TIME IS OVER. YOU ALL HAVE ONE MINUTE TO SUIT UP. LORD AKIRA LIFE IS IN DANGER. ANYONE WHO WILL NOT BE READY AT THE END OF THE MINUTE, ARE TOTALLY KICKED OUT OF THE ARMY"-Shun

Just at the mention of Lord Akira life is danger, all the soldiers released war cries, that shattered the ear drums of logistics department. Even before the minute is ended, they were completely armed and standing in files in front of their respective generals. Not a single soldiers is out of line or looked untidy.

"TO LORD AKIRA RESCUE. FOLLOW US"-kenta

Millions of barbarian soldiers also started to move towards the battle zone.

AT MADARA'S SIDE

Even though he too was surrounded by hordes of monsters, he didn't even spare a glance at them.

"Kiragi and Chihiro, intercept the monsters"- Madara

Even though they both wanted to fight Ichika, they reluctantly moved towards the monsters with huge grins on their faces.

"Let's compete who will kill more monsters, Chihiro"-Kiragi

"Sure. Don't complain to me, when you are losing"- Chihiro

"Hidan, Kakuzu, Orochimaru and Danzo, intercept the one eyed giant"- Madara

"But jashin sama is demanding her blood, Madara sama"- Hidan

"Hidan enough with your jashin sama. She clearly know about our abilities, so it's best if we stay away from her. Also i want to see, how much my abilities can increase with this Giant's heart"- Kakuzu

"You can keep his heart, but don't destroy his body. I will need it intact to experiment later."- Orochimaru

"Outer Path : Demonic Statue Chains", suddenly Madara attacked both Kinkaku and Ginkaku, much to the surprise of all.

"What is the meaning of attacking your own allies Uchiha freak?"-Kinkaku

"No matter how small it is, both of your chakra is already tainted completely by the kyuubi's chakra. Since i didn't capture the original one, i will make do with yours for the present"- Madara

With that both Kinkaku and Ginkaku became the meal of Juubi, whose chakra quality started to increase from before.

Just then a terrific aura hit all those present on the battle field, causing most of the monsters to faint and the others that are standing started to sweat bullets. The one to be impacted the most by the aura is Akira, who was right behind her. Only Madara, Fire Salamander and Cyclops Karu are unaffected by it. When they all turned to the source of the aura, they noticed pair of eyes looking at all of them as if they are ingredients on a chopping block. The one to be most affected by these eyes are Zetsu.

"Rinne Sharingan : Soul Memories Rewrite"- Ichika
