"Sensei?"

"What Shizune? I'm the greatest medic-nin to ever exist, do you think I wouldn't try to find a way to bring my family back...? To bring your Uncle back?"

"I thought you'd let go... I'd let go..." Shizune sorrowfully admits.

"Youknow what? I'll do it... I'll bring back your family, IF, your family line becomes my servants." Michael offers after thinking it over. The Sacred Resurrection spell wasn't cheap to cast, and while he now had a shit ton of Divinity to throw around, he didn't want to get into the habit of reviving every wayward person with a sob story.

Plus, what else could Tsunade offer him besides that? He'd be out of the world soon, and she didn't have anything else he valued. She had no money from her gambling, her abilities were far below his, and she had no real special abilities he wanted for himself... Sure she was a Senju, but he wasn't interested in trying to unlock their Wood Style at all.

Tsunade's eyes harden at his offer, the woman chewing on her lip as she considers it...

"Tsunade, you can't-"

"Don't tell me what I can and can't do, I'm doing this for both of us... So, if it brings them back...-"

"You'd be enslaving both of them with you..." Shizune hurriedly says.

"But they'd be alive." she says before looking at Michael, "What would being your servant look like?" she questions.

Michael shrugs, "Think of it like a Samurai family loyal to a Daimyo." he opens his hand causing a large parchment to appear with a burst of flames, "I'll add clauses disallowing needless cruelty if you like?"

...

"No needless cruelty, the ability to refuse orders that go against our morals, and the allowance to choose thing concerning our personal lives." Tsunade asks.

"Eh, you can refuse some orders but letting you do what you want whenever you want can't be allowed. What'd be the point of putting you in servitude?" Michael states as the text on the parchment flash with fire as they change. "Read it, see if it's suitable."

"Really, Sensei, I think we should consider this more instead of jumping into it!" Shizune presses but is ignored as Tsunade reads through it.

"This is... Fine..." she mutters, "This deal will force us both to follow it?"

Michael nods, "Of course, even gods are bound by rules. Here," he says, handing her a modern ballpoint pen.

...

Tsunade looks conflictedly between the parchment and Shizune for a couple minutes, before eventually nodding her head and signing the paper. She flinches slightly as the pen draws blood from her veins, but fully signs it regardless.

Michael grins and snatches the paper before letting it burn up, "The deal is struck! Alright, hand me the DNA so we can get started."

"He's evil isn't he?" Megumin jovially says while jabbing Shizune in the side with an elbow.

"It's hot." Saeko affirms while licking her lips.

"What have you gotten yourself into, Tsunade." Shizune mentally screams.

-----------------------------------------------------

"Is this the place, Kabuto?" Orochimaru asks as they step through the hallway towards the hotel room.

"If my information is correct, Lord Orochimaru." the bespectacled boy replies.

The snake Sannin nods, "Then, shall we greet my teammate?"

"Hai." Kabuto says before opening the door, Orochimaru's arm were rendered useless by the Third Hokage, so they required Tsunade to make them functional again, if such a thing was possible. Fortunately, they had the perfect thing to negotiate with... The lives of her family.

The door opens and the duo looks inside, only for Orochimaru to gape in shock at the sight... Tsunade was standing in the centre of the room hugging two people tightly. One was a short boy with brown hair and rosy cheeks, and the other was a man with light blue hair with green eyes. "N-Nawaki Senju, Dan Kato...?" he gasps in utter surprise.

The occupants of the room all turn towards them, three strangers with what looked like the Mangekyou Sharingan, Tsunade's apprentice, and three unconscious people on the floor... "I-Itachi Uchiha, Sasuke Uchiha, and Naruto Uzumaki..." he mutters in disbelief.

Itachi was far stronger than him in combat, so just his presence alone meant that things were far more dangerous than he'd anticipated. Not to mention the group's obviously evolved Sharingan, and is the famous Samehada on that girl's back!?

"Orochimaru..." Tsunade growls with tears still streaming down her face. She'd just had her family returned to her and her old teammate just shows up? She knew she was unlucky, but this was something else indeed...

"Can we fight?" Saeko simply asks, wanting to try out her new eyes.

"Errrrr...." Michael trails off while trying to think of Naruto's plot and whether or not Orochimaru was integral for the survival of the world... Sure, Sasuke and Itachi reuniting and both evolving their eyes was a big change, but it could be worked around.

Orochimaru did resurrect the various Hokage to fight Madara and the Ten-Tails didn't he?

...

"Eh, sure, who do you want? The cripple or the nerd?"

"Who's stronger?"

"Right now? I'm not sure..." he looks to the duo, "Which of you wants to fight her?" he points his thumb at Saeko, "Whoever's left gets me."

Orochimaru mentally gives a silent apology to his servant before stepping forwards. Since the girl looked to Michael for permission, she was clearly the weaker of them. "I will volunteer myself then."

Michael grins, "Bad choice-"

*BOOM!*

Saeko's body barrels straight into the snake Sannin, blowing him straight through the wall and onto the street, leaving a confused and gaping Kabuto dumbly standing there.

Michael cracks his knuckles, "Alright, since you're so close with that pedo-snake you must be used to getting fisted. Grit your teeth," he says as he rears back a punch.

Kabuto throws his arms up defensively in front of him but screams out when he feels them immediately shatter from the force of the attack. His body creates yet another hole decorating the hotel wall, but he flies far further than even Orochimaru did.

"You guys enjoy your reunion and explain things." he says with a wave before racing after his wayward opponent.
