Yugito Akkipuden Episode 13: Trapped
WARNING: All Jutsu are in Japanese with the English Version in parenthesis.
Author's Note: Tarui, Han Lee, and Sanji have taken an unexpected fall! Who stole what?! Men in black cloaks?! WHAT THE F$%& IS GOING ON?!
Dī: Tarui! Hitomi!
Hitomi (thinking): Byakugan!
She scanned the ground in search of the others.
Hitomi: Nothing… I-I can't see them!
Asuka: Captain! Hitomi-chan! We've got company!
They looked and a large pack of black, brown and white wolves stood before them.
Dī: Let's take care of them, then look for the rest of our team!
Asuka & Hitomi: Yes, sir!
~Outskirts of the Land of Wind
Kiyoko, the Nanabi (Seven-Tails) Jinchūriki of the Takigakure (Waterfall Village) and Daisuke, the Sanbi (Three-Tails) Jinchūriki of the Kirigakure, were walking through a small sand trail that led to a forest. Kiyoko has medium length light brown hair, light blue eyes and fair skin. She's average height and is wearing a long-sleeve blue shirt that she has slanted to hang off of her right shoulder with fishnets underneath. She wears a matching blue skirt with slits on the sides, revealing her short fishnet leggings that stop at mid-thigh and white Shinobi Sandals. She wore her Takigakure headband as a choker as PTS Hinata did.
Daisuke is a man in his early thirties with good muscular posterity and is tall with short, black, spiky hair and black eyes. He wore a light grey haori that stopped at mid-thigh and wore no undershirt, revealing his crescent moon shaped scar in the center of his pectorals. He wears a bulky, white rope belt (similar to the bulky, purple rope belt Sasuke wore in Shippuden) with the bow in front, covering his abdominals. He wears fitting, dark trousers with white laces, one on each thigh and one on each shin, and the regular black Shinobi Sandals of the Kirigakure.
Kiyoko: *stretches* Ah! It feels good to get outside once in a while.
Daisuke: Yeah. Being under constant surveillance by the Allied Shinobi Forces can be a real pain. But I understand why they keep a close eye on us.
Kiyoko: I never understood why they watch us Jinchūriki so closely. We can handle ourselves.
Daisuke: You may think so, but then I was no higher than three feet, an organization known as the Akatsuki began to collect and kill the Jinchūriki and use their Bijū power to summon the Jūbi. The main reason of the Fourth Shinobi World War was to protect the remaining Jinchūriki, Bee-sama and Naruto-sama.
Kiyoko: Wow. So the Akatsuki captured all of the other Jinchūriki? They never would've captured Chōmei if I was there!
Daisuke: It's hard to say. The only Jinchūriki to be captured and survive was Godaime Kazekage-sama.
Kiyoko: Gaara-sama was captured? How?
Daisuke: I don't know the full details, but we should be heading back now. It's almost two o' clock.
Kiyoko: Yeah. The sun shifted over a lot. Let's get go…ing…
As they turned around to head back to the Sunagakure, two men, both in long, dark cloaks with red cloud designs on it, a red interior, and chin-high collars , were standing behind them. One of the men had a headband with three lower case "Z's" across it and a single horizontal line going through it. The other man had an Amegakure headband with the same horizontal line going through it.
Kiyoko (to Daisuke): Who are these guys?
Daisuke: Long, black cloaks, red clouds, crossed out forehead protectors… There's no doubt. These guys are with the Akatsuki.
Kiyoko: Wait, what? The Akatsuki?!
Daisuke: Yeah. I don't understand how though. The Akatsuki has been gone since the Fourth Great Ninja War.
?: Volterra, the two are Jinchūriki. If you get careless, they will kill you.
Volterra: I'm not easy to kill. You, of all people, should know that, Pazuzū.
Volterra is young, only 18 years old and has spiky, dark brown hair and bangs that cover a good portion of his headband. He has yellowish-orange eyes and his right canine tooth comes slightly over his bottom lip. He smaller, only 5'4 and he has fair skin. He wore black nail polish on his fingers and toes. Pazuzū is in his early thirties has two different colored eyes and pale skin. His left eye is green, his natural eye color, but his right eye is silver with a ten-point star as a pupil. He's taller, nearly 5'9 and he has medium length straight, grey hair that touches the back on his neck. He's got his bangs parted to reveal his village insignia. He wears dark purple finger and toenail polish.
Pazuzū: You Yumegakure (Dream Village) Shinobi are all the same, just different ages.
Daisuke: So, it seems that the Akatsuki's goal is the same. Targeting the Jinchūriki.
Pazuzū: Hmm. You're rather smart, Three-Tails. Figuring out who we are and our motive. It'll be an honor to capture you.
Daisuke: Kiyoko-chan! Get ready!
Pazuzū: Volterra, you handle the Seven-Tails. I want to handle this one.
Volterra: Whatever you say. You're the senior here.
Pazuzū: Just make it fast.
Volterra: Right.
~Abandoned Lightning Forest
Han Lee and Tarui got up at the same time.
Tarui: Is everyone okay?
Han Lee: Yeah. I am okay.
Tarui: Didn't Sanji fall with us?
Han Lee: He did, but he is not here. We must find him!
Tarui: Yeah. Can't just leave him down here.
Han Lee: Where is "here"? Where are we?
Tarui: I don't know, but the climate is different down here... wherever we are.
Han Lee: It is humid, like it has just rained and the sun is out. It is bright here, but I do not see a sun.
Tarui: Let's just go find Sanji and maybe he can get us out of here.
As they walked through the humid rain forest, they started noticing spider webs in the trees and on the bushes.
Tarui: Lee-san, be careful.
Han Lee: Okay. It is starting to get really hot now– Tarui…
Tarui (looking back at him): Hm?
Han Lee: Please, follow my instructions. Walk towards me and do not make any noise.
Tarui: Why?
She looked ahead of her and three massive, black spiders were climbing down their spider webs. She screamed and ran the opposite direction of the spiders. The spiders hissed and screeched and Lee ran off with her. The spiders began chasing them.
Han Lee: We could have simply walked away from them if you did not scream!
Tarui: Too late now! Just run!
~Kumogakure's Sensory Chamber
Cloud Ninja: Lord Raikage! Word from the Konohagakure!
Darui: What is it?
Cloud Ninja: Rokudaime (Sixth) Hokage's body has gone missing!
He stood up from his seat.
Darui: What?!
Cloud Ninja: Someone has grave robbed Naruto-sama's body!
Darui: Shī! Connect me to Ino Yamanaka!
Shī: On it!
He put on his mind-speech helmet and connected to Ino's mind.
Shī: You're connected!
Darui went over to Shī and he placed his open palm on Darui's head.
Darui (mind): Ino Yamanaka!
Ino (mind): Hm? Darui-sama! Did you hear?! Naruto's body–
Darui: It's missing... I know. How long ago was it stolen?
Ino: Anywhere between 20 to 45 minutes ago. Our ANBU that we normally have guarding the burial grounds were slaughtered! We've already sent search parties all over the Land of Fire.
Darui: How are the Jinchūriki doing?
Ino: Our Jinchūriki here are fine, but…
Darui: What happened?
Ino: Temari of the Sunagakure told us that Daisuke and Kiyoko went for a walk and they haven't heard back from them or the ANBU Black Ops that were spying on them.
Darui: We shouldn't get ahead of ourselves and make assumptions. Hopefully, they'll be back within the hour.
Ino: You're right, Darui-sama. We'll keep searching for his body.
Darui: Right. (disconnects from Ino) I wonder who the hell would grave rob Naruto's body and what for.
Kamui: Dad! I can sense a large amount of troops approaching from the East!
Shī: I can sense them too!
Darui: Shit! Our Intel was off. They're here a day early!
Shī: They're advancing rapidly!
Darui: Tell Dī and his squad to abort the mission and head back now!
Shī: Right!
Dee, Asuka and Hitomi were killing the large pack of wolves one by one. But they seemed to never stop coming. The three were back to back in a circle as the wolves surrounded them. Shī connected his mind to Dee, Asuka and Hitomi.
Shī: Dī! Where are Tarui, Lee and Sanji? I don't sense their chakra.
Dī: They fell through a trap in the ground. Hitomi used her Byakugan to try to find them, but she couldn't locate them.
Shī: You've gotta find them! Hakai Guntai troops are in the Land of Lightning!
Dī: Damn! They're here already?! Our Intel was off!
Shī: Find them and get back here on the double! Darui's orders!
Dī: Yes, sir! You heard him, girls. We gotta find them.
Asuka: But the wolves just keep coming!
Hitomi: We have to finish them off so we can find the others.
Dī: Agreed! Let's finish them!
~Outskirts of the Land of Wind
Volterra had Daisuke bond by a tight, purple rope when in reality, Volterra was using Inton (Yin Release) and Daisuke was paralyzed, making him think and see a purple rope around him and thinking he was tied up. Pazuzū had Kiyoko's hands on top of one another and a Chakra Disruption Rod running through them, sticking her to a tree. Both Jinchūriki were badly beaten and covered in their own blood.
Volterra: Well. That took way longer than expected.
Pazuzū: They're Jinchūriki, Volterra. You shouldn't have expected a short battle.
Volterra: They really didn't want to quit. We even ended up beating half of this nice forest to hell in the process.
Pazuzū: It was idiotic of you to think it was going to be easy to capture these two.
Kiyoko started moving around on the tree, trying to free herself.
Kiyoko: I…
Pazuzū and Volterra: Hm?
Kiyoko: I… I won't… le-let you… take us…
Volterra walked over to her with a grin on his face.
Volterra: Silly Seven-Tails. I admire your fighting spirit, nonetheless. Now do me a favor and… shut up!
He punched her in her stomach and she coughed up blood onto the sleeve of his cloak. Her eyes got weary and she began to lose consciousness.
Pazuzū: Well, I believed we've overstayed our welcome in Allied Shinobi Forces territory. Let's get back to the hideout.
Volterra: Yeah. This place gives me the chills. It's too… peaceful.
Pazuzū did five hand seals and ended with the "Ram" hand seal.
Pazuzū: Kuchiyose no Jutsu: Densetsu no Tori! (Summoning Jutsu: Legendary Bird(s))
He touched the ground with his open palm and a giant bird that he refers to as a "Legendary Bird" appeared in a giant cloud of grey smoke. This particular bird looked more like an Eagle. Its head was blue, the feather on its neck were red and from the shoulders down, its feathers were green with orange talons. The two jumped to the bird Pazuzū jumped up and landed in the "driver's seat" while Volterra landed on the birds back and lied down. He locked his fingers behind his head and crossed his legs at the ankles to get comfortable. The bird flapped its powerful wings and began lifting off. It picked up Daisuke in one talon and with the other talon, pulled Kiyoko from the Rod in her hands. Her hands slid off of the Chakra Disruption Rod, leaving her blood behind and the bird flapped its wings again. It began soring through the air with the Jinchūriki in each one of its sharp talons.
~Somewhere underneath the Abandoned Lightning Forest
The two were still running from the three giant spiders. Lee and Tarui were jumping through the trees and trying to evasively psyche out the spiders.
Han Lee: We cannot keep running!
Tarui: But… they're spiders! Normal spiders creep me out! And do you see the size of the ones behind us?!
Han Lee: There is no time to keep running!
He jumped into a slide and turned around. He got in the same stance as his father; his legs were spread, creating an approximate two foot gap in between his feet. He had his left leg slightly behind his right and his left arm was balled into a fist and hidden behind his back. His right arm was out in front of him, bent at the elbow, and the palm of his hand was facing him as if he would be taunting his opponent. As the spiders approached him, Tarui stopped running and looked back at him.
Tarui: Lee! What are you doing?!
Han Lee: I will settle this here!
Han Lee then tucked his elbows to his hips and his skin turned red from the increased blood flow.
Han Lee: Tomon, kai! (4th Gate – The Gate of Pain, Release)
After opening the 4th Gate, he then dashed head on with the spiders, but he moved so fast that the spiders lost sight of him. Then suddenly, the middle spider was sent flying into the air. Then the left and then the right spider. Tarui saw Lee for a very brief moment. He had right hand placed on the ground and his left leg was in the air (similar to Rock Lee kicking Gaara in the chin during the Chūnin Exams).
Tarui (thinking): Is that really Lee?
As all three spiders were in the air, Lee began beating all three of them around like a pinball game. And, seemingly at the same time, he punched all three spiders in the abdomen, sending them crashing down to earth. Lee landed in front of Tarui with his left hand on the ground and his left knee on the ground. He stood up and his skin was normal color again.
Tarui: Lee-san… that was–
She was cut off when two more giant spiders jumped out of the tree towards them. Lee got back in his stance and Tarui finally got in hers. A wall of glass appeared in front of them and the spiders, causing them the run face first into, breaking their necks. Tarui looked behind herself and saw Sanji aiming his hand to the glass. Lee looked back and saw him as well.
Han Lee: Thank you very much, Sanji-san!
Tarui (thinking): I can't just sit back and let the guys defend me like I'm a useless damsel in distress!
Another giant spider with brown fur came down from the trees. Tarui had her hands down at her sides. She squeezed them tightly into fists and activated her Raiton no Yoroi.
Tarui: Today, I'll face my fear!
She darted at untraceable speeds and smashed through the glass wall, shocking Sanji and causing him to flinch. With shards of glass everywhere, she delivered a lightning enhanced Erubō Boruto (Elbow Bolt) to the spiders' abdomen, sending it flying back. She dashed after it and with her incredible speed; she managed to get behind the spider and deliver Raigyaku Suihei (Lateral Bolt of Pain) to the spiders' ribcage with her left hand, sending it flying back the direction it came. Once again, she used her speed while clad in her Raiton no Yoroi to get in front of the spider.
Han Lee (thinking): Wow! Such speed and power!
Sanji stood there with a deadpanned face, as usual.
Tarui: This technique originated from my Godfather! RARIATTO! (Lariat)
She hit the spider square in the chest with a powerful lightning Lariat that split the spider in half horizontally. The two halves spider was sent spinning and crashing against the ground, crushing trees as it tumbled. She deactivated her Raiton no Yoroi while sliding back to her team.
Han Lee: Nice job, Tarui-chan!
He gave her a thumbs up, wink and a smile that sparkled.
Tarui: I couldn't just sit back and let you two defend me. I'm not some useless Kunoichi.
Han Lee: That you are not! And you have managed to conquer your fear!
Sanji created 3 glass platforms, put one at his feet and put the other two at the others feet.
Han Lee: Excellent! We can get out of here!
Tarui: Good thinking, Sanji.
Sanji nodded and stepped onto his glass platform. The other two did the same and Sanji began guiding the glass platforms through the air. He saw the holes in the ground where they fell through and flew to it.
Dee and the girls were finishing off the last of the wolves. Asuka had just killed two with her lava and Dī sliced ones' head off.
Hitomi: Three life forms at our six!
Asuka turned around while doing hand seals.
Asuka: Yōton: Yōkai–
She stopped herself in mid hand seal and realized who was behind them.
Asuka: Captain! It's Tarui and the others!
Dī looked to see Tarui, Lee and Sanji.
Hitomi: Hakke Kushō! (Eight Trigrams Air Palm)
She hit a wolf square in the face with a powerful Air Palm, sending it back into other wolves. The group of wolves began whining and ran off into the forest.
Dī: Tarui! What happened to you guys?!
Tarui: We–
Dī: Never mind that now! The Hakai Guntai's troops are already in the Land of Lightning!
Tarui: What?!
Dī: Yeah So we're aborting the mission. Dad's orders.
Tarui: Alright. Let's go!
Han Lee: Right away!
They all dashed back the way they came.
~Kumogakure Sensory Chamber
Shī: I can sense all six of their chakras. They're all on the way back to the village.
Darui: Good. Everyone! Prepare for battle!

Kiyoko, the Nanabi (Seven-Tails) Jinchūriki of the Takigakure (Waterfall Village) and Daisuke, the Sanbi (Three-Tails) Jinchūriki of the Kirigakure, were walking through a small sand trail that led to a forest.

He stood up from his seat.
Darui: What?!
Cloud Ninja: Someone has grave robbed Naruto-sama's body!
Darui: Shī! Connect me to Ino Yamanaka!

He put on his mind-speech helmet and connected to Ino's mind.

She was cut off when two more giant spiders jumped out of the tree towards them. Lee got back in his stance and Tarui finally got in hers. A wall of glass appeared in front of them and the spiders, causing them the run face first into, breaking their necks. Tarui looked behind herself and saw Sanji aiming his hand to the glass. Lee looked back and saw him as well.
Han Lee: Thank you very much, Sanji-san!
Tarui (thinking): I can't just sit back and let the guys defend me like I'm a useless damsel in distress!
Another giant spider with brown fur came down from the trees. Tarui had her hands down at her sides. She squeezed them tightly into fists and activated her Raiton no Yoroi.
Tarui: Today, I'll face my fear!
She darted at untraceable speeds and smashed through the glass wall, shocking Sanji and causing him to flinch. With shards of glass everywhere, she delivered a lightning enhanced Erubō Boruto (Elbow Bolt) to the spiders' abdomen, sending it flying back. She dashed after it and with her incredible speed; she managed to get behind the spider and deliver Raigyaku Suihei (Lateral Bolt of Pain) to the spiders' ribcage with her left hand, sending it flying back the direction it came. Once again, she used her speed while clad in her Raiton no Yoroi to get in front of the spider.
Han Lee (thinking): Wow! Such speed and power!
Sanji stood there with a deadpanned face, as usual.
Tarui: This technique originated from my Godfather! RARIATTO! (Lariat)
She hit the spider square in the chest with a powerful lightning Lariat that split the spider in half horizontally. The two halves spider was sent spinning and crashing against the ground, crushing trees as it tumbled. She deactivated her Raiton no Yoroi while sliding back to her team.
Han Lee: Nice job, Tarui-chan!
He gave her a thumbs up, wink and a smile that sparkled.
Tarui: I couldn't just sit back and let you two defend me. I'm not some useless Kunoichi.
Han Lee: That you are not! And you have managed to conquer your fear!
Sanji created 3 glass platforms, put one at his feet and put the other two at the others feet.
Han Lee: Excellent! We can get out of here!
Tarui: Good thinking, Sanji.
Sanji nodded and stepped onto his glass platform. The other two did the same and Sanji began guiding the glass platforms through the air. He saw the holes in the ground where they fell through and flew to it.
Dee and the girls were finishing off the last of the wolves. Asuka had just killed two with her lava and Dī sliced ones' head off.
Hitomi: Three life forms at our six!
Asuka turned around while doing hand seals.
Asuka: Yōton: Yōkai–
She stopped herself in mid hand seal and realized who was behind them.
Asuka: Captain! It's Tarui and the others!
Dī looked to see Tarui, Lee and Sanji.
Hitomi: Hakke Kushō! (Eight Trigrams Air Palm)
She hit a wolf square in the face with a powerful Air Palm, sending it back into other wolves. The group of wolves began whining and ran off into the forest.
Dī: Tarui! What happened to you guys?!
Tarui: We–
Dī: Never mind that now! The Hakai Guntai's troops are already in the Land of Lightning!
Tarui: What?!
Dī: Yeah So we're aborting the mission. Dad's orders.
Tarui: Alright. Let's go!
Han Lee: Right away!
They all dashed back the way they came.
~Kumogakure Sensory Chamber
Shī: I can sense all six of their chakras. They're all on the way back to the village.
Darui: Good. Everyone! Prepare for battle!
