Naruto Shippuden 20

Naruko and Sasuke broke off their brief clash, with Sasuke forced backward with her strength. He quickly recovered and threw kunais at her to which she caught each of them in quick succession before sending them back to him. He brought up his sword and redirected it as they embedded it into trees.

"You're getting better Sasuke, so what did you want to talk about?" Naruko asked as she walked up to a small cliff with Sasuke following behind her

"Thanks, I need someone to talk to for a while." Sasuke said as he sat next to her with her hair and dress blowing gently in the wind.

"So how did your reunion go with your brother?" Naruko asked with a soft voice as she looked at him.

"As well as you would think. Didn't feel anything except for more sadness after he succumbed to his illness." Sasuke said as Naruko looked sadly at him while noticing a few tears.

She created a tissue and handed it to him as he accepted it.

"Sorry to bring that up, I was being insensitive." She said looking across the forest.

"It's okay. I've avenged Itachi, my family, and the Uchiha Clan by killing Danzo. Shinobu walked in on my fight with Danzo and the look on his face was priceless." Sasuke said with a laugh as Naruko joined in.

"Kakaka, she truly is something else. I still don't know how strong she is but I really want to reach her level of strength and possibly surpass it. You know I'm looking forward to fighting Madara at his very best." Naruko said getting an eyebrow raise from Sasuke.

"Same here. I would like to see how I measure up with both of you." Sasuke said getting a snort from Naruko.

"Would be fun. If that day does come I call dibs fighting him first. I rather fight alone." Naruko said.

"No way, when the time comes we can do a rock-paper-scissors for who gets to fight first. No way I'm letting you one-up me." Sasuke replied with a laugh.

"Whatever, I need to ask one more thing. You have the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan, don't you?" Naruko asked getting a brief silence from Sasuke.

"Indeed, Of all those who have ever possessed the ability of the Sharingan I'm the fourth to receive this power. The first was obviously the Sage of the Six Paths with the second being his oldest son who started what would become the Uchiha Clan. The next person to obtain the eyes was Madara Uchiha himself and then there is me." Sasuke said with a hint of pride.

"Very well done, but don't let that powerup go to your head. There is more to fighting than having fancy tricks and skills. Or I'll have Alucard and Tamamo re-educate you on what happens if you depend too much on it." Naruko said getting a groan from Sasuke to which she laughed.

"Yeah, don't worry about that happening. Itachi is the reason I have these eyes, and I plan on not dishonoring him and his sacrifice." Sasuke said getting a nod of approval from Naruko.

"Very good. That eye is very powerful. It is capable of controlling Tamamo when she's caught off guard and likely inconveniences me if used on me." Naruko said before getting up and looking at the sky before summoning Kokorowatari and placing it on her shoulder.

"I always meant to ask, what is special about that sword? It has an evil presence and feel to it." Sasuke asked as Naruko looked back at him.

"Hmm, It's a demonic sword that I share with Shinobu. It is usually good for dealing with supernatural entities. Can negate healing and disrupts external and internal power sources. I can't use it properly cause it's kind off hard to control but I do look pretty cool when I carry it." Naruko said stretching her sword arm forward.

"That sounds dangerous but I guess it suits you." Sasuke replied watching Naruko make a few samurai stances.

"You want to see something cool Sasuke?" Naruko asked getting his attention."

"Hmm, yes." Sasuke said.

Naruko got into a stance before becoming a blur and moved around in a small area before returning to her original spot. Then the area of effect where she moved shattered into glass.

"Hmm, impressive." Sasuke said noticing the casual manipulation and destruction of spatial dimensions.

"You don't sound so impressed Mr. Could you do better?" Naruko asked with a grin.

"Probably not, at least for now." Sasuke replied.

"It was a good talk. Take care and be safe, I don't want Sakura bugging me about her Sasuke-kun." Naruko said getting a groan and a slight blush from him.

"You too. Do take care of her till I return from my journey and tell Kakashi I said hi." Sasuke said before he disappeared with a shunshin.

-Elsewhere-

Shinobu was leaning against a cliff calmly watching the interaction between her sister and Sasuke before a strange swirling vortex appeared with Madara emerging moments after, eye locked firmly onto Shinobu who gazed back clearly unintimidated by the man.

"Hello, Miss Oshino or is it Kiss-Shot?" Madara asked the woman.

"Just Kiss-shot. What do you want from me?" Shinobu asked Madara who was leaning next to her on the same cliff.

"I've come to inform you of a few things and offer you the same choice I gave the Five Kage." Madara told her.

"Oh really," Shinobu replied with a grin as Madara nodded.

"You know why the Akatsuki is gathering the Nine-Tailed Beasts so I won't bore you with the history lesson however I should inform you that I plan to make this world one with me through the Eye of the Moon plan." Madara said getting a laugh from Shinobu.

"Kakaka, Let me guess it involves the Juubi also." Shinobu said with a smile as she looked to Madara who nodded.

"Correct, using its reserves I shall project my Sharingan onto the moon and put all humans under the strongest Genjutsu known as the Eternal Tsukuyomi. Through it, I shall bring true peace to this land, peace that all before me would have failed to achieve!" Madara explained getting a nod from Shinobu.

"And you assume I care for your plan or maybe I should try to interrupt it for my own amusement." Shinobu asked.

"On the contrary, I know exactly what you will do which is why I've come to give you a warning," Madara said to Shinobu.

"Hmm, the last man that tried to warn me with such ferocity got killed like a dog, but I'm all ears." Shinobu said.

"I believe you would recall a moment where Kisame managed to land a blow on you with his unique blade known as Samehada, one of the blades of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist capable of stealing the power from the person it comes into contact with. Suffice to say it consumed a rather interesting power from you Shinobu…" Madara said.

"And what shall you do with it. You will only get a minuscule boost in power since you are incapable of using it. But I'll bite, what did you do with it?" Shinobu said with a grin.

"I'm afraid that sharing such secrets during wartime would not prove beneficial to my cause so I'll have to decline to inform you of my actions however I shall tell you this. Get in the way of my plan and you shall be solely responsible for what awaits you."

"Kakaka, Scathing," Shinobu said with a laugh. "Anything else you want to tell me 'Madara Uchiha'."

"You are quite powerful indeed Shinobu, but I doubt you are powerful enough for what I have planned." Madara said.

"You do know I can end this all by destroying the moon, an easy feat for one such as myself." Shinobu said ignoring the consequences of such actions. Not like she cared.

"You would destroy the moon," Madara asked in what Shinobu assumed was the closest thing to a shaky voice the man had.

"Perhaps, if my little sister is unable to deal with your plan. She wants to fight you at your very best. So don't worry I shan't stop your plan. It's up to her to do that." Shinobu said

"Hmmm, very well. Hope you enjoy the coming Fourth Great Ninja War for it will be your last!" Madara said before vanishing into a vortex.

"Destroying the moon, sounds interesting?" a voice called out which belonged to Naruko.

"Naruko, you wouldn't mind if this older sister blows up the moon right?" Shinobu asked with a blush.

"Nah, I need the moon. What would I use to smash Madara's ugly mug with?" Naruko said with a laugh.

"There are surrounding planets and other moons." Shinobu said.

"Yeah. I want to fight him at his strongest and then some." Naruko said before adopting a serious look. "So I may murder him at his best. Still can't forgive him for the death of my first parents you know."
