Yugito Akkipuden Episode 17: The Tale of Gaara of the Desert and Yoshi the Gobi
WARNING: All Jutsu are in Japanese with the English Version in parenthesis.
Author's Note: A battle of life and death is just getting started! The Konohagakure has received Intel about the Akatsuki's attack on the Sunagakure; can Sakura make it in time?!
~Sunagakure
Yoshi had fully transformed into Kokuō, the Five-Tailed Beast.
Gaara (thinking): Yoshi-san…
Kokuō: Rrraaahhh! It's time to die!
Tendō: Finish them quickly.
All four Akatsuki members dashed at them. Tendō flew around Kokuō's face, punching him and kicking him from all directions. While Tendō was distracting him, Gakidō was quickly running and placing explosive tags on the ground around Kokuō's hooves. Tendō aimed one hand at Kokuō's forehead.
Tendō: Shinra Tensei!
The invisible force field hit the beast in face hard enough to make it stumble back, setting of the explosives around it. As the tags detonated, Kokuō cried out in pain.
Aijō made two steel platforms for her and Ningendō and they charged at Gaara. He guided his sand towards them and tried to stop their movement. They evaded the sand and they stabbed Gaara simultaneously with Charka Disruption Rods. His body instantly began turning to sand.
Aijō: Suna Bunshin… (Sand Clone)
Gaara appeared behind them and he created two Sajin Sōgeki (Sand Spear Attack). He hurled them at Aijō and Ningendō and the Sand Spears exploded against their bodies.
Gaara: What?
The two turns to dark grey metal and broke apart into pieces. He looked around and then looked behind to see the two girls standing in the same spot they were in before the attacked him with the Chakra Disruption Rods.
Gaara (thinking): Dammit… He jutsu is incredible. Taking on them both will be difficult.
~Konohagakure, Intel Division
Sakura, Ino and Shikamaru were talking with Shino about what has been going on with the Jinchūriki.
Shino: My Parasitic Insects that I sent all over the Land of Fire have come back with reports of blood splashed on the ground and on the trees.
Ino: Kai hasn't returned to the village yet.
Shikamaru: Neither have the ANBU Black Ops we sent to watch him.
Shino: My guess is that he has gone missing as well, or worse.
Sakura: Do we have any Intel on the Jinchūriki under Godaime Raikage's care?
Ino: Yes. Isashi, Shoji and Midori are in the village and safe.
Shikamaru: Shoji? You mean Bee Number Two? I don't know if it's just me, but he is an exact image of Killer Bee.
Shino: I agree. He is also very skilled, just like his master.
Sakura: Did the Sunagakure find Kiyoko or Daisuke yet?
Shikamaru: No. They are still missing.
Sakura: What about Yoshi of the Iwagakure?
Just then, Karin came barging into the room with urgent news. She was breathing hard from the far distant she just ran.
Ino: What's wrong, Lady Karin?
Karin: The Sunagakure is under attack!
Sakura: What?! By the Hakai Guntai?
Karin: No! Temari-chan has reported that they are under attack by the Akatsuki!
Shikamaru, Sakura, Shino, and Ino all stood up from their chairs.
Sakura: What?! That's impossible! The Akatsuki has been dead for the last 20 years!
Shikamaru: How do we know they are the "Akatsuki"?
Karin: She's reported their attire being long black cloaks with red cloud motifs on them!
Ino: Shit!
Sakura: Shikamaru! Set up a squad and let them know I'm leading it! We're heading out NOW!
~Land of Lightning, Kumogakure
Everyone was returning to a normal day. Evening was approaching and Darui was donating the blood Seiji needed.
Darui: Doc, how much more blood do you need? I'm startin' to feel lightheaded.
Medic: Just a little more. The Blood Transfusion is almost complete, Raikage-sama.
Darui: Hm… alright.
He looked at Seiji, who was on the gurney next to him, and Asuka was gently rubbing his hand.
Asuka: How are you holding up, Raikage-sama?
Darui: I'll be fine. I'm more concerned about him.
Seiji's eyes slowly opened and he looked up at Asuka. She smiled at him and rubbed his forehead, moving his black hair out of his face. Seiji looked to his right and saw Darui on the gurney next to him.
Seiji: Raikage-sama? Why are you in the Infirmary? Were you hit during the battle?
Darui: No. I stayed here because Ei-sama's body went missing. After I was done investigating that, I came here to check on things and I recognized you. Doc here said you needed a Blood Transfusion and I offered to be your donor.
Seiji: But… why?
Darui: Because… I remember what happened to you and your family 8 years ago. Now was the only chance I had to pay you, and I couldn't let it slip away.
Seiji: Thank you… Raikage-sama.
Darui: No problem. What's your name kid?
Seiji: Seiji. Seiji Yuhi. Um… Tamiko Yuhi adopted me when the Hokage allowed me into his village. But, she died recently during an enemy siege.
Darui: I'm sorry to hear that… You know what? From now on, I will help you anytime you need me. Consider yourself protected by Kumogakure for life by the Kumogakure. Anything you need, we'll supply it to you. This is what I'm going to do to make up for what happened that day 8 years ago. Is she with you?
Darui pointed to Asuka. Seiji looked at her and back at Darui.
Seiji: Yes, sir. She is.
Darui: Then consider both of you permanently guarded by the Kumogakure. You have my word.
Seiji and Asuka smiled at each other.
~Sunagakure
Kokuō: Watch out!
Gakidō was flying at Gaara from behind, who was engaging in close quarter combat with Ningendō. Gakidō held out a Chakra Disruption Rod and continued to lunge at Gaara. He looked back for a brief moment and created a thin layer of sand. Gakidō couldn't stop in time and ran into the crashing, throwing him off of his flight pattern. Through the sand, he tumbled into Ningendō, accidently stabbing her in the stomach with the Disruption Rod. Gakidō yanked the Rod from her stomach and the two darted after Gaara again.
Gaara (thinking): What?! She didn't even feel it… What are they now?
Aijō was on a steel platform, flying around Kokuō. Tendō flew over a hovered next to her.
Tendō: Keep stalling. Shuradō and Chikushōdō are near.
She did the "Ox", "Tiger" and ended with the "Snake" hand seal.
Aijō: Kōton: Kōryū no Jutsu! (Steel Dragon Jutsu)
An enormous, dark grey winged dragon emerged from the ground. It had bulky metal arms and strong legs. It stood on all fours and its tail was long with spikes trails down it. It had sharp claws and its eyes were the same color as its skin. Aijō stood on the top of its head.
Yoshi (inside of Kokuō): What the hell is that thing?
Kokuō (thinking): I don't know, but whatever it is, it can't be good.
The metal dragon roared and charged at Kokuō. He swiped his hove across the ground and charged the dragon. The dragon stood on two feet and Kokuō ran its horns into the dragon's torso. It caught Kokuō's head and began trying to wrestle it to the ground. Gaara was flying around the village, shooting sand shuriken and mini sand spears at Ningendō and Gakidō. He created a line of sand that hovered over his head.
Gaara: Rendan: Suna Shigure! (Successive Shots: Sand Drizzle)
He shot dozens of sand bullets at them and Gakidō absorbed it instantly. Gaara raised his left hand up and sand came from behind them and engulfed them. Just as Gaara was about to perform a Sand Burial, he felt a blast of repulsive energy against his side, which sent him rolling across the sand. The blast was so great that it shattered Gaara's right arm.
Gaara: Kaa-urgh. Ahh!
He looked at Ningendō and Gakidō and Gakidō was absorbing the sand around them. He looked up and to the right to see Tendō still aiming his right hand at Gaara. Blood was leaking down his arm and he was in immense pain. Without using his right arm, Gaara recovered, created a second sand platform and began gliding. Tendō and Gakidō quickly flew after him. Kokuō and Aijō's steel dragon were still battling. Kokuō had gotten back a little bit and prepared for a final blow. It darted full speed at the metal dragon.
Yoshi (inside of Kokuō): You're scrap metal now! Tsunoori! (Horn Buster)
Kokuō drove its horns directly into the steel dragon's sternum, smashing a giant hole in it. As it was flying back from the lethal impact of Kokuō, it began to fall apart, losing its arms, legs and wings. Aijō did a back flip and recovered by creating another flat, steel platform and landing safely on it. Gaara retreated to Kokuō and remained near. The four Akatsuki members regrouped and stood in a line in front of Gaara and Kokuō.
Tendō: It's time to end this. Aijō, shield yourself along with Ningendō and Gakidō. Make sure the dome is sturdy enough to keep you attached to the ground.
Aijō: Yes, Itachi.
She began doing 5 hand seals and ended with the "Ram" seal.
Aijō (to herself): Fukutsu no Dōmu Yōsai no jutsu! (Unyielding Dome Fortress Technique)
She placed her hands on ground and two dark grey structures came up from the ground and closed Aijō, Ningendō and Gakidō.
Gaara (thinking): What is he about to do?
Tendō put his hands together as if he were praying.
Tendō: Chibaku Tensei… (Planetary Devastation)
He then slightly pulled his hands apart and a black orb was between his hands. He then held it in his left hand for a brief moment and released it into the air. Once it got to a high point in the sky, matter all around began being sucked to the black orb. Giant chunks of the earth and the sand buildings were the main thing being drawn to it.
Gaara: The village! No!
Gaara and Kokuō began feeling the intense gravitational pull to the orb. Kokuō dug its hooves to the ground and tried resisting the orb's pull.
Yoshi (in Kokuō's body): Shit! What the hell is that black orb?!
Kokuō (thinking): I recognize this thing! Gyūki told me a few years ago that he and a few others destroyed a black orb that was sucking them in.
Yoshi: How?! How did he destroy it?
Kokuō: He said he shot a Bijūdama at it and the others with him threw their strongest projectile jutsu into it. It's a long shot, but if I can get several of my Bijūdama to hit the black orb, I can destroy it!
Yoshi: Well, quit talking! Please hurry!
Kokuō: Right!
Kokuō opened his mouth wide and blue and black chakra began forming.
Gaara (looking at Kokuō): Huh? A Bijūdama? Will that work?
Kokuō: Hrrraaahhhh!
Kokuō and Yoshi: Renzoku Bijūdama! (Continuous Tailed Beast Bomb)
He fired three individual Tailed Beast Bombs and the gravitational pull of the Chibaku Tensei sucked them right in. The Chibaku Tensei exploded in a fiery blast and sent the pieces of the earth and buildings from the Sunagakure everywhere. A large rock came for Tendō and he had to jump out of the way. Immediately after Tendō dodged the rock, Yoshi returned to his normal self. He was looking at his arms and hands in disbelief.
Yoshi: Shit! No! Not now!
Gaara: Yoshi-san! What happened?
Yoshi: I-I timed out! I haven't mastered the Hosuto Henkan (Host Transformation) yet!
All the Host Transformation is is turning into your Bijū and fully controlling it (Like Killer Bee or Yugito Nii). Aijō released her Dome Fortress and the group regrouped again.
Gaara: Dammit. Can you enter it again?
Yoshi: Holy shit! Your arm!
Gaara: Don't worry about me! Can you do it again?
Yoshi: I… I don't know…
Gaara: Hmm… Then we fight to the last breath.
Aijō: The Chibaku Tensei has failed.
Tendō: This isn't the first time this has happened. The Chibaku Tensei has failed on other occasions as well.
?: Kuchiyose no Jutsu! (Summoning Jutsu)
Tendō: Great timing.
Someone in a long black cloak came seemingly out of nowhere and summoned a Giant Rhino with the same eyes as Tendō.
Yoshi (frightened): Oh shit…
Gaara (thinking): This isn't looking good.
Missiles came flying at Gaara and Yoshi from behind them. Yoshi two jumped in different directions and the missiles exploded against the sand. The man that shot the missiles landed crouching down next to the other Akatsuki members.
?: Are we late?
Gaara got a good look at the man that landed next to the other Akatsuki members.
Gaara (thinking): R-Raikage Ei?! What? How?!
Tendō: Actually Shuradō, you're right on time. Chikushōdō, summon more animals to corner them.
Chikushōdō: You got it. Kuchiyose no Jutsu!
He summoned the Giant Centipede, the Giant Multi-Headed Dog and the Giant Chameleon and they quickly surrounded Gaara and Yoshi. Chikushōdō was standing on the head of the Giant Rhino and Gaara got a good look at him. It was Naruto Uzumaki and he had the power of the Chikushōdō Path. Raikage Ei was standing with the other Paths and Aijō and he had the power of Shuradō, or the Asura Path.
Yoshi: This is bad, Gaara-sama. This is really bad!
Gaara remained quiet.
Tendō: Go after the Gobi first. He's what we're mainly after. Jigokudō comes second.
Aijō: This is the end for both of you.
Tendō: Banshō Ten'in… (Universal Pull)
Yoshi began sliding towards the enemy.
Yoshi: What the hell?! Ahh! Hey!
Tendō: Gakidō!
Gakidō flew at Yoshi while he was helplessly being pulled by the Banshō Ten'in. He head butted Yoshi in the stomach, which sent him rolling and tumbling across the ground.
Gaara: Yoshi!
He tried to guide his sand with one hand to Yoshi to shield his body from any more attacks. The Giant Rhino stepped in the way and the sand collided with its tough body. Ningendō is fast and ran up beside Yoshi and while he was tumbling, she kneed him in his right kidney, rupturing it. She jumped off and Aijō came from above and kicked him downward. The kick had enough for to cause him to bounce off of the ground. She jumped off and Shuradō came down at an angle and kicked him in his shoulder, causing him to spin in mid-air at high velocities. He quickly timed it and grabbed a hold on Yoshi by his throat. He spun and around and launched him into the air.
Yoshi (thinking): Urghh! They're coming too fast! I ca-I can't keep up!
He saw that Shuradō through him in the direction of Tendō who was hovering in the sky.
Yoshi (thinking): I think… I think it's over for me. They ruptured several of my organs. My body isn't responding to my brain. I'm sorry… I… couldn't protect Gaara-sama.
Tendō pulled out a Chakra Disruption blade from his sleeve and when Yoshi got to him, he jammed it into his sternum. Yoshi coughed up blood onto Tendō's Akatsuki cloak and his neck went limp. He briefly looked up into Tendō's eyes and his right eye, his Sharingan eye, began spinning.
Tendō: Kamui…
He began getting sucked into his eye.
Yoshi (thinking): This is it… Goodbye…
Yoshi was fully sucked into Tendo's right eye. Gaara was frozen in shock. He heard the sounds of missiles again and looked to a barrage of them flying his way. They exploded against the sandy ground, causing Gaara to slide across the ground. His sand gourd's strap had broken and it went off in a different direction. He looked up and Ningendō was plunging down at him.
Gaara: Gugh!
She crash landed on him with her open palm on his forehead.
Gaara (thinking): Oh no!
He thought back to reading about Ningendō or the "Human Path" in the book that Naruto wrote about his toughest opponents in his life. Mei began pulling Gaara's blue soul out through his forehead.
Gaara (thinking): Have I failed? Have I failed as Kazekage? I'm sorry Temari. I'm sorry Kankurō. I'm sorry Utada. Kūryū, Shikoku, Shikamaru, I'm sorry everyone…
She fully pulled out Gaara's soul and absorbed it into her hand. His eyes remained opened.
Ningendō: Mission complete.
Aijō: Itachi, we should take our leave.
Tendō: Hmm. Shuradō, grab Jigokudō. Ningendō, what did he know?
Ningendō: The Six and Nine-Tails are in the Konohagakure. Tails Two, Four, and Eight are at the Kumogakure. The Five-Tails was the last Jinchūriki in the Land of Wind.
Tendō: Let's get back to the Hideout and extract the 3 we have.
Chikushōdō: I wonder where Korosu and Zageki are.
~Western Land of Lightning
Two men in Akatsuki cloaks were walking through the Land of Lightning, on their way to the Kumogakure. The man with the pale face was normal height, had long dark brown hair and really light silver, nearly white, eyes. He wears his Yukigakure (Hidden Snow Village) headband around his head with the horizontal line through it and he wore dark purple nail polish on his fingers and toes. The man walking next to him has a full head of spiky black hair, sideburns that go along his chin and a beard. He's got black pupils and his skin was a litter man tan than normal (same color as Asuma Sarutobi). He wears his Hoshigakure (Star Village) forehead protector around his head and wears black finger and toenail polish.
Ex Snow Villager: Let's get this over with fast. I hate this land.
Ex Star Villager: You shouldn't hate this land, Zangeki. It's pretty peaceful here.
Zangeki: Yeah, yeah. Why did Itachi assign us this land? I'd pretty any other country than this one. And Korosu, how do you know this land is peaceful?
Korosu: Because I'm much wiser than you will ever be, Zangeki.
Zangeki: Whatever, old man.

WARNING: All Jutsu are in Japanese with the English Version in parenthesis.
Author's Note: A battle of life and death is just getting started! The Konohagakure has received Intel about the Akatsuki's attack on the Sunagakure; can Sakura make it in time?!
~Sunagakure
Yoshi had fully transformed into Kokuō, the Five-Tailed Beast.
Gaara (thinking): Yoshi-san…
Kokuō: Rrraaahhh! It's time to die!
Tendō: Finish them quickly.
All four Akatsuki members dashed at them. Tendō flew around Kokuō's face, punching him and kicking him from all directions. While Tendō was distracting him, Gakidō was quickly running and placing explosive tags on the ground around Kokuō's hooves. Tendō aimed one hand at Kokuō's forehead.
Tendō: Shinra Tensei!
The invisible force field hit the beast in face hard enough to make it stumble back, setting of the explosives around it. As the tags detonated, Kokuō cried out in pain.
Aijō made two steel platforms for her and Ningendō and they charged at Gaara. He guided his sand towards them and tried to stop their movement. They evaded the sand and they stabbed Gaara simultaneously with Charka Disruption Rods. His body instantly began turning to sand.
Aijō: Suna Bunshin… (Sand Clone)
Gaara appeared behind them and he created two Sajin Sōgeki (Sand Spear Attack). He hurled them at Aijō and Ningendō and the Sand Spears exploded against their bodies.
Gaara: What?
The two turns to dark grey metal and broke apart into pieces. He looked around and then looked behind to see the two girls standing in the same spot they were in before the attacked him with the Chakra Disruption Rods.
Gaara (thinking): Dammit… He jutsu is incredible. Taking on them both will be difficult.
~Konohagakure, Intel Division
Sakura, Ino and Shikamaru were talking with Shino about what has been going on with the Jinchūriki.
Shino: My Parasitic Insects that I sent all over the Land of Fire have come back with reports of blood splashed on the ground and on the trees.
Ino: Kai hasn't returned to the village yet.
Shikamaru: Neither have the ANBU Black Ops we sent to watch him.
Shino: My guess is that he has gone missing as well, or worse.
Sakura: Do we have any Intel on the Jinchūriki under Godaime Raikage's care?
Ino: Yes. Isashi, Shoji and Midori are in the village and safe.
Shikamaru: Shoji? You mean Bee Number Two? I don't know if it's just me, but he is an exact image of Killer Bee.
Shino: I agree. He is also very skilled, just like his master.
Sakura: Did the Sunagakure find Kiyoko or Daisuke yet?
Shikamaru: No. They are still missing.
Sakura: What about Yoshi of the Iwagakure?
Just then, Karin came barging into the room with urgent news. She was breathing hard from the far distant she just ran.
Ino: What's wrong, Lady Karin?
Karin: The Sunagakure is under attack!
Sakura: What?! By the Hakai Guntai?
Karin: No! Temari-chan has reported that they are under attack by the Akatsuki!
Shikamaru, Sakura, Shino, and Ino all stood up from their chairs.
Sakura: What?! That's impossible! The Akatsuki has been dead for the last 20 years!
Shikamaru: How do we know they are the "Akatsuki"?
Karin: She's reported their attire being long black cloaks with red cloud motifs on them!
Ino: Shit!
Sakura: Shikamaru! Set up a squad and let them know I'm leading it! We're heading out NOW!
~Land of Lightning, Kumogakure
Everyone was returning to a normal day. Evening was approaching and Darui was donating the blood Seiji needed.
Darui: Doc, how much more blood do you need? I'm startin' to feel lightheaded.
Medic: Just a little more. The Blood Transfusion is almost complete, Raikage-sama.
Darui: Hm… alright.
He looked at Seiji, who was on the gurney next to him, and Asuka was gently rubbing his hand.
Asuka: How are you holding up, Raikage-sama?
Darui: I'll be fine. I'm more concerned about him.
Seiji's eyes slowly opened and he looked up at Asuka. She smiled at him and rubbed his forehead, moving his black hair out of his face. Seiji looked to his right and saw Darui on the gurney next to him.
Seiji: Raikage-sama? Why are you in the Infirmary? Were you hit during the battle?
Darui: No. I stayed here because Ei-sama's body went missing. After I was done investigating that, I came here to check on things and I recognized you. Doc here said you needed a Blood Transfusion and I offered to be your donor.
Seiji: But… why?
Darui: Because… I remember what happened to you and your family 8 years ago. Now was the only chance I had to pay you, and I couldn't let it slip away.
Seiji: Thank you… Raikage-sama.
Darui: No problem. What's your name kid?
Seiji: Seiji. Seiji Yuhi. Um… Tamiko Yuhi adopted me when the Hokage allowed me into his village. But, she died recently during an enemy siege.
Darui: I'm sorry to hear that… You know what? From now on, I will help you anytime you need me. Consider yourself protected by Kumogakure for life by the Kumogakure. Anything you need, we'll supply it to you. This is what I'm going to do to make up for what happened that day 8 years ago. Is she with you?
Darui pointed to Asuka. Seiji looked at her and back at Darui.
Seiji: Yes, sir. She is.
Darui: Then consider both of you permanently guarded by the Kumogakure. You have my word.
Seiji and Asuka smiled at each other.
~Sunagakure
Kokuō: Watch out!
Gakidō was flying at Gaara from behind, who was engaging in close quarter combat with Ningendō. Gakidō held out a Chakra Disruption Rod and continued to lunge at Gaara. He looked back for a brief moment and created a thin layer of sand. Gakidō couldn't stop in time and ran into the crashing, throwing him off of his flight pattern. Through the sand, he tumbled into Ningendō, accidently stabbing her in the stomach with the Disruption Rod. Gakidō yanked the Rod from her stomach and the two darted after Gaara again.
Gaara (thinking): What?! She didn't even feel it… What are they now?
Aijō was on a steel platform, flying around Kokuō. Tendō flew over a hovered next to her.
Tendō: Keep stalling. Shuradō and Chikushōdō are near.
She did the "Ox", "Tiger" and ended with the "Snake" hand seal.
Aijō: Kōton: Kōryū no Jutsu! (Steel Dragon Jutsu)
An enormous, dark grey winged dragon emerged from the ground. It had bulky metal arms and strong legs. It stood on all fours and its tail was long with spikes trails down it. It had sharp claws and its eyes were the same color as its skin. Aijō stood on the top of its head.
Yoshi (inside of Kokuō): What the hell is that thing?
Kokuō (thinking): I don't know, but whatever it is, it can't be good.
The metal dragon roared and charged at Kokuō. He swiped his hove across the ground and charged the dragon. The dragon stood on two feet and Kokuō ran its horns into the dragon's torso. It caught Kokuō's head and began trying to wrestle it to the ground. Gaara was flying around the village, shooting sand shuriken and mini sand spears at Ningendō and Gakidō. He created a line of sand that hovered over his head.
Gaara: Rendan: Suna Shigure! (Successive Shots: Sand Drizzle)
He shot dozens of sand bullets at them and Gakidō absorbed it instantly. Gaara raised his left hand up and sand came from behind them and engulfed them. Just as Gaara was about to perform a Sand Burial, he felt a blast of repulsive energy against his side, which sent him rolling across the sand. The blast was so great that it shattered Gaara's right arm.
Gaara: Kaa-urgh. Ahh!
He looked at Ningendō and Gakidō and Gakidō was absorbing the sand around them. He looked up and to the right to see Tendō still aiming his right hand at Gaara. Blood was leaking down his arm and he was in immense pain. Without using his right arm, Gaara recovered, created a second sand platform and began gliding. Tendō and Gakidō quickly flew after him. Kokuō and Aijō's steel dragon were still battling. Kokuō had gotten back a little bit and prepared for a final blow. It darted full speed at the metal dragon.
Yoshi (inside of Kokuō): You're scrap metal now! Tsunoori! (Horn Buster)
Kokuō drove its horns directly into the steel dragon's sternum, smashing a giant hole in it. As it was flying back from the lethal impact of Kokuō, it began to fall apart, losing its arms, legs and wings. Aijō did a back flip and recovered by creating another flat, steel platform and landing safely on it. Gaara retreated to Kokuō and remained near. The four Akatsuki members regrouped and stood in a line in front of Gaara and Kokuō.
Tendō: It's time to end this. Aijō, shield yourself along with Ningendō and Gakidō. Make sure the dome is sturdy enough to keep you attached to the ground.
Aijō: Yes, Itachi.
She began doing 5 hand seals and ended with the "Ram" seal.
Aijō (to herself): Fukutsu no Dōmu Yōsai no jutsu! (Unyielding Dome Fortress Technique)
She placed her hands on ground and two dark grey structures came up from the ground and closed Aijō, Ningendō and Gakidō.
Gaara (thinking): What is he about to do?
Tendō put his hands together as if he were praying.
Tendō: Chibaku Tensei… (Planetary Devastation)
He then slightly pulled his hands apart and a black orb was between his hands. He then held it in his left hand for a brief moment and released it into the air. Once it got to a high point in the sky, matter all around began being sucked to the black orb. Giant chunks of the earth and the sand buildings were the main thing being drawn to it.
Gaara: The village! No!
Gaara and Kokuō began feeling the intense gravitational pull to the orb. Kokuō dug its hooves to the ground and tried resisting the orb's pull.
Yoshi (in Kokuō's body): Shit! What the hell is that black orb?!
Kokuō (thinking): I recognize this thing! Gyūki told me a few years ago that he and a few others destroyed a black orb that was sucking them in.
Yoshi: How?! How did he destroy it?
Kokuō: He said he shot a Bijūdama at it and the others with him threw their strongest projectile jutsu into it. It's a long shot, but if I can get several of my Bijūdama to hit the black orb, I can destroy it!
Yoshi: Well, quit talking! Please hurry!
Kokuō: Right!
Kokuō opened his mouth wide and blue and black chakra began forming.
Gaara (looking at Kokuō): Huh? A Bijūdama? Will that work?
Kokuō: Hrrraaahhhh!
Kokuō and Yoshi: Renzoku Bijūdama! (Continuous Tailed Beast Bomb)
He fired three individual Tailed Beast Bombs and the gravitational pull of the Chibaku Tensei sucked them right in. The Chibaku Tensei exploded in a fiery blast and sent the pieces of the earth and buildings from the Sunagakure everywhere. A large rock came for Tendō and he had to jump out of the way. Immediately after Tendō dodged the rock, Yoshi returned to his normal self. He was looking at his arms and hands in disbelief.
Yoshi: Shit! No! Not now!
Gaara: Yoshi-san! What happened?
Yoshi: I-I timed out! I haven't mastered the Hosuto Henkan (Host Transformation) yet!
All the Host Transformation is is turning into your Bijū and fully controlling it (Like Killer Bee or Yugito Nii). Aijō released her Dome Fortress and the group regrouped again.
Gaara: Dammit. Can you enter it again?
Yoshi: Holy shit! Your arm!
Gaara: Don't worry about me! Can you do it again?
Yoshi: I… I don't know…
Gaara: Hmm… Then we fight to the last breath.
Aijō: The Chibaku Tensei has failed.
Tendō: This isn't the first time this has happened. The Chibaku Tensei has failed on other occasions as well.
?: Kuchiyose no Jutsu! (Summoning Jutsu)
Tendō: Great timing.
Someone in a long black cloak came seemingly out of nowhere and summoned a Giant Rhino with the same eyes as Tendō.
Yoshi (frightened): Oh shit…
Gaara (thinking): This isn't looking good.
Missiles came flying at Gaara and Yoshi from behind them. Yoshi two jumped in different directions and the missiles exploded against the sand. The man that shot the missiles landed crouching down next to the other Akatsuki members.
?: Are we late?
Gaara got a good look at the man that landed next to the other Akatsuki members.
Gaara (thinking): R-Raikage Ei?! What? How?!
Tendō: Actually Shuradō, you're right on time. Chikushōdō, summon more animals to corner them.
Chikushōdō: You got it. Kuchiyose no Jutsu!
He summoned the Giant Centipede, the Giant Multi-Headed Dog and the Giant Chameleon and they quickly surrounded Gaara and Yoshi. Chikushōdō was standing on the head of the Giant Rhino and Gaara got a good look at him. It was Naruto Uzumaki and he had the power of the Chikushōdō Path. Raikage Ei was standing with the other Paths and Aijō and he had the power of Shuradō, or the Asura Path.
Yoshi: This is bad, Gaara-sama. This is really bad!
Gaara remained quiet.
Tendō: Go after the Gobi first. He's what we're mainly after. Jigokudō comes second.
Aijō: This is the end for both of you.
Tendō: Banshō Ten'in… (Universal Pull)
Yoshi began sliding towards the enemy.
Yoshi: What the hell?! Ahh! Hey!
Tendō: Gakidō!
Gakidō flew at Yoshi while he was helplessly being pulled by the Banshō Ten'in. He head butted Yoshi in the stomach, which sent him rolling and tumbling across the ground.
Gaara: Yoshi!
He tried to guide his sand with one hand to Yoshi to shield his body from any more attacks. The Giant Rhino stepped in the way and the sand collided with its tough body. Ningendō is fast and ran up beside Yoshi and while he was tumbling, she kneed him in his right kidney, rupturing it. She jumped off and Aijō came from above and kicked him downward. The kick had enough for to cause him to bounce off of the ground. She jumped off and Shuradō came down at an angle and kicked him in his shoulder, causing him to spin in mid-air at high velocities. He quickly timed it and grabbed a hold on Yoshi by his throat. He spun and around and launched him into the air.
Yoshi (thinking): Urghh! They're coming too fast! I ca-I can't keep up!
He saw that Shuradō through him in the direction of Tendō who was hovering in the sky.
Yoshi (thinking): I think… I think it's over for me. They ruptured several of my organs. My body isn't responding to my brain. I'm sorry… I… couldn't protect Gaara-sama.
Tendō pulled out a Chakra Disruption blade from his sleeve and when Yoshi got to him, he jammed it into his sternum. Yoshi coughed up blood onto Tendō's Akatsuki cloak and his neck went limp. He briefly looked up into Tendō's eyes and his right eye, his Sharingan eye, began spinning.
Tendō: Kamui…
He began getting sucked into his eye.
Yoshi (thinking): This is it… Goodbye…
Yoshi was fully sucked into Tendo's right eye. Gaara was frozen in shock. He heard the sounds of missiles again and looked to a barrage of them flying his way. They exploded against the sandy ground, causing Gaara to slide across the ground. His sand gourd's strap had broken and it went off in a different direction. He looked up and Ningendō was plunging down at him.
Gaara: Gugh!
She crash landed on him with her open palm on his forehead.
Gaara (thinking): Oh no!
He thought back to reading about Ningendō or the "Human Path" in the book that Naruto wrote about his toughest opponents in his life. Mei began pulling Gaara's blue soul out through his forehead.
Gaara (thinking): Have I failed? Have I failed as Kazekage? I'm sorry Temari. I'm sorry Kankurō. I'm sorry Utada. Kūryū, Shikoku, Shikamaru, I'm sorry everyone…
She fully pulled out Gaara's soul and absorbed it into her hand. His eyes remained opened.
Ningendō: Mission complete.
Aijō: Itachi, we should take our leave.
Tendō: Hmm. Shuradō, grab Jigokudō. Ningendō, what did he know?
Ningendō: The Six and Nine-Tails are in the Konohagakure. Tails Two, Four, and Eight are at the Kumogakure. The Five-Tails was the last Jinchūriki in the Land of Wind.
Tendō: Let's get back to the Hideout and extract the 3 we have.
Chikushōdō: I wonder where Korosu and Zageki are.
~Western Land of Lightning
Two men in Akatsuki cloaks were walking through the Land of Lightning, on their way to the Kumogakure. The man with the pale face was normal height, had long dark brown hair and really light silver, nearly white, eyes. He wears his Yukigakure (Hidden Snow Village) headband around his head with the horizontal line through it and he wore dark purple nail polish on his fingers and toes. The man walking next to him has a full head of spiky black hair, sideburns that go along his chin and a beard. He's got black pupils and his skin was a litter man tan than normal (same color as Asuma Sarutobi). He wears his Hoshigakure (Star Village) forehead protector around his head and wears black finger and toenail polish.
Ex Snow Villager: Let's get this over with fast. I hate this land.
Ex Star Villager: You shouldn't hate this land, Zangeki. It's pretty peaceful here.
Zangeki: Yeah, yeah. Why did Itachi assign us this land? I'd pretty any other country than this one. And Korosu, how do you know this land is peaceful?
Korosu: Because I'm much wiser than you will ever be, Zangeki.
Zangeki: Whatever, old man.
