Before the rampage of the nine-tails demon fox, a deadly secret was kept by the Sunagakure. Some say the event never took place, a myth to scare of curious children. However, with the truth of the Third Kazekage's death spreading amongst the land, they knew it had to be true...

At a the time when Sandaime Kazekage suceeded the Second, the Country Of Wind was in a state of war, with each passing civil war more impacting than the previous. Each of the clans were severing each others' throats, baying for blood. Knowing that he must eliminate all the clan lords to have full control of the country, Sandaime Kazekage brought upon them a treaty of force unity and should they disobey his will, him and the elite ninjas of the Sunagakure will massacre them. With this, every clan bowed to the rule of the third, except one clan village, The Village of Jade.

Now The Jade villagers do not care about rulers or politics just as they are left undisturbed with their worship. The Village of Jade are a group of religious fanatics and it is said that they worship one of the guardian spirits of the wind, The Jade Dragon. Years before the Kazekage Dynasty, the occult was popular amongst the Wind, and the influence of the Jade Dragon was worldwide. However, as time went by, many denounced their fate, the new age telling them that the Jade Dragon was a hoax and so its believers were reduced to a single clan.

The reason why the Jade clan disobeyed Sandaime Kazekage was that they were not allowed to prostrate to anyone, except the Jade Dragon himself. Seven times Sandaime Kazekage ordered them to surrender and seven times they refused. With no further choice left, Sandaime Kazekage mustered Sunakagure's ninja troops, numbering to 10,000 ninjas against a village that merely had 200 villagers. Their march echoed throughout the land, with each step signaling the demise of the Jade Village. In a final attempt to save his people, Satsujin Kojiro, the Village leader of the Jade, went head-on against the might of Sandaime Kazekage. Along with a group of Jade Ninjas, Kojiro held their ground at the final defence of the Jade Village, a fortress known as Teikaku Soyokaze. Little did they knew, this battle was the start of an even greater despair that will ravage the world forever...​

The sun had a blood red tinge as it slowly set down the horizon. From the shining walls of Teikaku Soyokaze, Satsujin Kojiro looked at the sunset for a lingering moment, for it may be the last sunset he will ever see.

Fujiwara Seishi, Kojiro's right hand man and long-time bestfriend, yawned dramatically, putting a halt to Kojiro's serious moment.

Kojiro: Must you do that?

Seishi: Do what?

Kojiro: You're ruining the moment.

Seishi: Bah! Its not like the last sunset we're ever gonna see!

Kojiro: *turns around* Oh so you're that confident? Take note that there is a hundred of us and ten thousand of them.

Seishi: *shrugs* Ants are still ants no matter how many of them gather. *unsheathes katana* every single one of them will fall by my blade *spinand slashes the air mockingly*

Kojiro: Hah! That's true *looks at the sunset again* but...

Seishi: But what?

Kojiro: Kigeki... I hate leaving him alone.

Seishi: Oh come on, your son is seventeen already! He's a full-grown man, you don't need to worry about him anymore.

Kojiro: I know but *sighs and gives Seishi a serious look* there's a high chance we will lose this war and if that happens, who's going to defend the village?

Seishi: *sheathes his sword* Koji...

Kojiro: If Kigeki dies... what will I do? He's the only family I've got.

Seishi: *grabs Kojiro's shoulder* There is nothing we can do, but the Jade Dragon wil protect him, that I know. We are all children of his, and a father will do everything to protect his son, isn't that right?

Kojiro: Seishi... *nods* You're right. With the Jade Dragon on our side, there is nothing we should fear!

Seishi: Amen to that, brother!

Kojiro: Haha, I know that-

Kojiro was interrupted by the feeling of a massive chakra flow of that of thousands of men.

Seishi: Kojiro!

Kojiro: *nods* They are here. Assemble everyone to the main hall. It is time to wage war upon this heretics.

Seishi *cracks knuckles audibly* 'Bout time they showed up! *teleports away*

Kojiro: *kneels down and closes his eyes* Jade Dragon, master of the breeze, grant me the strength to protect those who I hold deae.

Kojiro stood and open his eyes. His eyes had a light green hue like that of a jade, and chakra was overflowing through his body.

From the barren wastelands where his troops were camped, Sandaime Kazekage could clearly see Teikaku Soyokaze, it was like a gem sticking out of a merchant's pocket. He had heard rumours of which a guardian spirit dwelt between the walls of this shining fortress but surely this is just a mere myth. And so what if it was true? Sandaime Kazekage believed that with his new power, he can crush anyone, may it be a spirit or a God.

A wind ninja interrupted his thoughts with an announcement

Wind ninja: Kazekage-sama, she has arrived

Sandaime: Very well, send her in.

Sandaime Kazekage only had to wait for a moment when she walked in. She had blood-red hair and she wore the uniform of the special forces of the Wind. A huge scroll was strapped on her back and a wry smile formed on her lips as she presented herself to Sandaime Kazekage. She was in her mid-thirties though one could hardly notice for she had the face of an angel.

Red haired girl: Kazekage-sama *bows*

Sandaime: Rise. *smiles* You really amaze me sometimes. It only took you a day to reach the encampment.

Red haired girl: *stands up* I think you underestimate my ability, master.

Sandaime: That I do, *sits* so what news of the experiment?

Red haired girl: Damn Ichibi, He's very stubborn. Most of our subjects are now dead or mutated due to an imperfect implantation. It seems that that ingrateful Biju wants a fresh candidate, a new born baby and not only that but a body to feed his hunger.

Sandaime: That is rather depressing news. Nevertheless, cease the experiment for now, there are more pressing matters to attend to. *takes out a kunai and twirls it around*
Teikaku Soyokaze is only guarded by a hundred men and yet it seems we cannot penetrate it.

Red haired girl: hmm? I find that hard to believe. What is your ten thousand soldiers doing, my lord?

Sandaime: They're scared stiff of the enemy. They claim that we are not only fighting men, but a God as well *laughs* its pathetic, really.

Red-haired girl: So the reason you called me is...

Sandaime: *nods* This is your mission. Destroy the fear of our troops and strengthen their morale by eliminating the Jade ninjas. I am confident of your skill. *throws kunai at her*

The red haired girl didnt even flinch as the kunai sped towards her. In a splict second, Sandaime Kazekage raised his hand and the kunai disintergrated into fine iron sand, which moved sideways to avoid her face.

Sandaime: As I am confident of mine *smiles*

Red-haired girl: *blushes* I-I will not let you down, my Lord!

Sandaime: I know you won't

The thousands of footsteps thundered the ground as Kojiro prepared for battle behind the emerald gates of Teikaku Soyokaze, Behind him, Seishi and the others armed themselves with daggers and some were praying. Seishi approached Kojiro, gripping the hilt of his katana.

Seishi: How many of them are out there?

Kojiro: Judging by the sound, about a thousand men and they are only the vanguard unit. *turns to face Seishi* Are all the daggers infused with jade chakra?

Seishi: Of course! Those wind ninjas don't stand a chance!

Kojiro: *smiles* Good, everyone! Gather around!

About a hundred men assembled straightly around Kojiro, each of them having an emerald glimmer in their eyes.

Kojiro: We are the of the Jade, blessed by the wind yetr hated by many and at what reason? Just because we do not bow to an arrogant ruler? Our families, our future is in the verge of slaughter all because of these stubborn men we are about to face. But I say let them come! Taste the wrath of the Jade Dragon *raises fist* The Breeze shall deliver Kazekage's army into our hands! To Victory!

Everyone: TO VICTORY!

Kojiro: Seishi, is the arbalest ready? And you there! Ready your jutsu, it is important that you time it right. *looks up to the sky* this battle has begun...

-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x--x-x-x-x-x

The vanguard unit of the Sandaime Kazekage numbered to a thousand men, and as they approached the gates of Teikaku Soyokaze, needless to say they were already sweating in their clothes, may it be the blazing sun or their fear. A captain marched in front of them, encouraging them as hard as he could.

Wind Jounin: Steady men, there's only a few of them here.

Grunts were the only reply he got when suddenly he saw something move at the corner of his eye.

Random Wind Ninja: Look! They're opening the gates!

Wind Jounin: What the- Stay sharp people! Ready your Daggers!

As the gates lowered, the wind ninjas noticed a large wooden contraption. They have never seen anything like it before. It had square holes and each had something glinting inside

Wind Jounin: Wait... That looks like a-

That was the last thing he said as a great deal of daggers was launched towards them. One of the daggers hit the captain's chest, and drilled through him, leaving a fist-size hole that ruptured his heart and lungs.

The wind ninjas dispersed, trying to find cover as the arbalest continued shooting. Around a hundred of them have already fallen, too slow to avoid the arbalest's assault. Finally the machine stopped and an unfamiliar voice was heard.

Jade Ninja:*does hand seals* Wind Release! Desert Storm!

A huge tornado suddenly formed between the fortress and the army, kicking up a sandstorm. As the storm raged on, the sand limited the wind ninja's perception. Needless to say, this is exactly what the Jade ninjas needed.

The wind ninjas didnt stand a chance as each of them were massacred by the Jade Ninjas' assault. As the storm finally ended, half of the thousand men were already dead and the Jade ninjas stood on the pile of corpses, daring the Wind ninjas to continue the attack.

Random Wind Ninja: T-They are not men! RUN FOR IT

Random Wind Ninja 2: UWAAAH!

Most of the survivors of the ran away, too afraid to continue and the Jade ninjas laughed.

Seishi: Hah! Is that all you got? *Twists katana around* I could have beaten you with my eyes closed and my hands and feet tied.

Kojiro: Really now? *smiles*

Seishi: Heh, I was just exaggerating. Come on, lets go back to the fortress.

The Jade Ninjas went back into the fortress, with Kojiro leaving the last. Suddenly he felt an unnatural flow of chakra and he turned around, his fists raised up. There, by a sand dune, stood a red-haired girl and her presence sent shivers down Kojiro's spine...

Kojiro: You...
