Chapter 6: The Plan Pt.2

Six months passed, marking an unparalleled ascension in Naruto's journey. The trail of his exploits became a legend whispered among shinobi and civilians alike.

Embarking on a relentless quest for power, Naruto undertook and conquered 356 A-Rank missions, 92 S-Rank missions, and 35 SS-Rank missions. His feats were etched into the annals of the shinobi world, propelling him into the notorious ranks of the bingo book. Enemy villages clamored for his capture, offering bounties exceeding a billion yen, dead or alive.

Naruto's contributions transcended the mere fulfillment of missions. Assisting Team 7 in the Wave Country, he dismantled Zabuza, Haku, and Gato, restoring peace and rebalancing the scales of justice. He didn't stop there—his benevolence extended to rebuilding the Wave Country and furnishing it with supplies plundered from Gato's base, a gesture ensuring their prosperity for two decades.

His pursuit of power led him to hunt other tailed beasts. Absorbing the chakra of the 1st through 6th tails, Naruto's power burgeoned, equating to the might of the complete 9 tails. Unlocking two new forms, his "Final Form" and "Golden Form," he became a force to reckon with, his prowess escalating beyond measure. (Throwing the Akatsukis plan out the roof)

In a pilgrimage to the Land of Whirlpool, the Uzumaki homeland, Naruto delved into the secrets of Uzushiogakure, mastering various elusive jutsu. Claiming the legendary UzoKages sword, a relic of the land, The sword was named "Raijin no Ken," The sword incorporated the flying raijin technique and many other forms, this left Naruto confused on how The Land Of Whirlpool knew about Minato Namikaze, namely the Yellow Flash techniques.

Returning from the Land of Whirlpool, Naruto covertly acquired the Scroll of Sealing, mastering its forbidden arts under the guise of a disguised henge clone. His arsenal expanded, encompassing every jutsu inscribed within, even those deemed life-threatening.

But his quest for power knew no bounds. Discovering scattered Dragon Balls, Naruto held onto a wish, biding his time for its fruition. In his mind, the plan took shape, envisioning the Land of Whirlpool as his future stronghold, a nexus for his machinations. (If your a Dragon Ball fan you know what Naruto wished for.... Just think about Frieza)

As the echoes of his exploits reverberated across nations, Naruto's name became synonymous with both awe and fear. His journey had only just begun, and the shadows of his ambition cast a looming presence upon the world.

Three days before the Chunin Exams, Naruto decided to rest for a while before enacting his grand plan. As he prepared to teleport, a sinister chakra caught his attention. Sensing the malevolence akin to his own, Naruto chose to investigate.

In a swift teleportation, he materialized before the source, surprising even Orochimaru, who was in disguise. Orochimaru, still masked in his clever façade, contemplated whether Naruto had unraveled his secret.

"Well, well, well," Naruto taunted. "What do we have here?"

Orochimaru, maintaining his composure, wondered if he had been exposed. Naruto assured him not to be alarmed and expressed his desire for collaboration.

"I wish to work with you," Naruto declared, acknowledging Orochimaru's disguised identity.

Orochimaru, intrigued, questioned Naruto's intentions. Naruto, praising Orochimaru's disguise, proposed an alliance and revealed knowledge about the true path to immortality, holding a 2-star Dragon Ball in his hand.

Orochimaru, wide-eyed, deemed it impossible. Naruto, unfazed, explained the existence of seven Dragon Balls, capable of summoning a dragon to grant a single wish. Orochimaru, skeptical, inquired about Naruto's motives.

Naruto, holding the Dragon Ball, asserted, "This isn't the main reason I came here."

He outlined his plan to rule the world, beginning with going rogue during the Chunin Exams. Naruto, emphasizing his might as The Emperor, aimed to seize control of everything. Orochimaru, initially dismissing the idea as impossible, was intrigued by Naruto's conviction.

As Orochimaru contemplated, Naruto proposed a deal: assistance in killing Hiruzen Sarutobi in exchange for Orochimaru's aid. Orochimaru, with a smirk, agreed, sealing their unholy pact.

"Deal," Naruto confirmed, walking away. "Until next time."

Naruto teleported back to his well-hidden mansion, leaving Orochimaru to ponder their newfound alliance. The looming shadows of their ambitions converged, setting the stage for a tumultuous collaboration that would shake the foundations of the shinobi world. The countdown to the Chunin Exams began, and the chessboard of power saw another piece in play.
