Yugito Akkipuden Episode 27: It Begins
WARNING: All Jutsu are in Japanese with the English Version in parenthesis.
Author’s Note: Welcome to the next Arc known as the “Recruitment Arc”!! A two week time-skip has taken place. Yugito and the rest of the New Konoha 12 have been training with their respective sensei and going on mission’s regularly. With the action of the Akatsuki still fresh in everyone’s mind, what will they do to stir up trouble?!
~Hidden Leaf Forest, Two Miles from the Konohagakure
Yugito, Hayate and Seiji are with their sensei, Andō, and are returning from a B-Rank mission from the Iwagakure. They were ordered by Sakura, who has been appointed as permanent Hokage, to deliver a message to the new Tsuchikage about an upcoming Gokage Summit. Since the war was over, they all reverted to their everyday clothes.
Yugito (She’s got straight shoulder-length, red hair with bangs that come down like Kushina’s (only hers stops just under her chin and blue eyes. She puts her hair up in a hair ponytail while on missions with the exception of the Mizukage fight; sorry for never mentioning) had on a form fitting, red shoulder-length short sleeve jacket with a hood and had a black interior. She had mesh armor fishnets underneath and also had a very thin black line going down the center of the jacket where the zipper is located. She had on matching red pants that stopped at about the ankle and wore the standard Konohagakure black Shinobi Sandals. She had her kunai holster on her right thigh held by black and white tape/bandages. She wears her black forehead protector properly around her forehead.
Hayate (He’s got light orange, spiky hair with bangs that come down like Minato Namikaze’s and green eyes; sorry for never mentioning) wears a black, long-sleeved shirt that had a collar that came up to his neck and the Yamanaka Clan insignia on each shoulder. Sakura’s husband was a member of the Yamanaka Clan, but died in the recent years. Since she married into the Yamanaka Clan, Hayate wears the Yamanaka insignia to show the ties he has with his clan, even though he has Sakura’s last name. Over his black shirt, he wore the standard Konohagakure Flak Jacket. He also had matching pants, bandages around his shins and black Shinobi Sandals. He had his kunai holster on his left thigh held by black and white tape/bandages. He also wore white laces around his arms; two just beneath the elbow and two around his wrists. He wears his black Konohagakure headband around his head.
Seiji (He used to keep his hair in an unkempt fashion but now has small spiky bangs coming over the left side of his forehead with the rest of his hair with the rest is his hair slicked back. He also has black eyes; sorry for never mentioning) wears a gray, short sleeved, chin-high collared jacket that he unzipped to about his chest. Underneath, he wore mesh armor with light gray accents and a simple black T-shirt. He also wears a thin, black rope that had the two symbol kanji for the name “Tamiko”, his adoptive mother’s name, in silver hanging from it. On his right hand, he wore white bandages that only revealed his finger tips and covered his arm all the way to about mid forearm; the bandages are from training with Kakashi on using the Raikiri. He wears very dark gray, nearly black, pants and wears bandages around his shins along with black Shinobi Sandals. He had his kunai holster on his right thigh held by black and white tape/bandages.
Andō: Alright, everyone. Not much further now.
Yugito: Awesome. We’ve been away from the village for two days!
Hayate: It’s felt longer than that.
Seiji: Can I ask you guys a favor?
Yugito: Sure. What’s up?
Hayate: Something wrong?
Seiji: No, nothing’s wrong. But, if you guys could leave me here for a bit, that’d be great.
Yugito: Leave you here?
Seiji: Yeah. Don’t worry; I’ll be right behind you. It’s just, this area is peaceful. I’d like to be alone with my thoughts for a little bit.
Hayate: Something bothering you, brother?
Seiji: No. I’m okay, really. Don’t worry about me.
Andō: Alright. Don’t take too much time. We’ll be right up ahead.
Seiji: It’s okay. I know my way to the village.
Yugito: Alrighty. Let’s go then. I’m starved.
Hayate: Be careful out here, Seiji-kun. Wild animals will eat you if you fall asleep.
Seiji chuckled and the group continued on. He sat against a nearby tree and stretched out to relax. He brought up his right knee and rested his bandaged hand on it. He looked up at the clouds and began thinking of Asuka and his deceased parents.
Seiji (thinking): Mom… Dad… I miss you guys. Ever since I left the Kumogakure, I’ve felt different. Like I’m incomplete. Like there’s a gaping hole in my chest. The only thing I have left to fill that hole is Asuka. I love her to death and would do anything to protect her.
He reached around his neck and pulled his necklace over his head. He held it and looked at it. He clinched it tightly in his hand while a tear came quickly down the left side of his face.
Seiji (whispering): Tamiko…
He put his necklace back on and reached into his weapons pouch on his waist. He pulled out a scroll that was labeled with the kanji for the word “Raikage”. He opened it and scanned over it. It was a scroll that had a list of the Yondaime Raikage’s Nintaijutsu Techniques and how to perform them. Darui had given it to him as a token of his bravery against the Mizukage and that Seiji was willing to give his life to save the others.
Seiji (whispering): Thanks, Darui-sama.
He heard the sound of leaves rustling in nearby trees and quickly closed the scroll. He put it away and stood up, away from the tree. His eyes frantically scanned the area and kept his ears open for anything. He heard a second rustling and clinched his fists tightly, quietly activating his Raiton no Yoroi (Lightning Release Armor). From the trees, a kunai with a tag on it landed on the ground. Seiji quickly jumped back twice, clearing several meters in two hops. Once the tag didn’t detonate, he pulled out a kunai and passed Raiton through it. He threw the kunai with extremely great precision, another new prowess he’s perfected from working with Kakashi, and cut the string of the tag. It floated to the ground and still didn’t detonate.
He walked over to the kunai and tag and noticed that the explosive tag wasn’t really an explosive tag. He picked it up and it had a heart drawn on it. Something tapped him on the center of his back and he turned quickly. He had his left hand turned horizontally and went for a horizontal karate chop. He realized who was behind him and stopped the attack centimeters away from her face.
Asuka: Hey there.
She was smiling at him. He released his lightning armor and she hugged him. She gave him a peck on the lips and released her hug.
Seiji: Hey! What are you doing out here?
Asuka: Me and my squad were given the task of finding Ms. Shizuoka’s cats.
Seiji: She lost them again? Last time she lost them, we had to find them.
Asuka: Yeah, she needs cages for those things. I saw your squad ahead, by the way. I saw them but they didn’t see me. When I noticed you weren’t with them, I figured you had to be behind them somewhere.
Seiji: You figured huh?
Asuka: Speaking of which, why are you out here alone?
Seiji: Just thinking is all.
Asuka: About your parents?
Seiji: Yeah. And about you and Tamiko.
Asuka: Oh… I’ve been thinking about my parents too.
Seiji: You’ve never told me what happened to them, ya know.
Asuka: Hm… alright. When me and my brother were little, they abandoned us. We woke up one morning and they were gone. Katashi hates them, but I pity them. They’re missing out on two wonderful children.
Seiji: That sucks… I wish I knew where they were. I’d teach them a little lesson.
Asuka chuckled.
Asuka: No, no. No need to go “correct” them. It’s fine, as long as I have you.
???: How touching.
Suddenly, a person came from the trees and kicked Asuka in her side, sending her into a tree. She hit the tree so hard that she bounced off and landed in front it unconscious.
Seiji: What the hell?!
He quickly activated his Raiton no Yoroi once again. He turned around and three silhouettes were standing behind him. He looked forward again for an escape route and another three silhouettes were standings there.
Seiji (thinking): Dammit! I’m surrounded!
The silhouettes stepped forward from the shade and exposed themselves. Behind him were Tendō, Ningendō and Aijō. The other way was Shuradō, Jigokudō and Chikushōdō.
Seiji: What?! Fifth Kazekage? Fourth Raikage? Naruto-sama?!
Chikushōdō, Shuradō and Jigokudō stood in silence.
Seiji: What the hell is going on here?
Before he knew it, someone hooked their arms under his arms and held him.
Seiji: Urgh! Get off!
Gakidō has surprised him and grabbed him, holding him in a full nelson. Tendō walked to him.
Tendō: I’d stay quiet if I were you; if you want to keep her alive that is.
Seiji looked over to Asuka. Shuradō stood next to her and changed his hand into a cannon that had a bright blue interior. He then went on to aiming the cannon at her.
Seiji: Wait! No!
Tendō: If you yell out, we’ll kill her.
Seiji became enraged and increased the strength of his Raiton no Yoroi to break free of the hold and strike the enemies. He suddenly felt himself getting weaker and weaker. Gakidō was absorbing his chakra. Before long, his Raiton no Yoroi released and he was defenseless.
Tendō: You’re a fighter.
Seiji was breathing heavily and felt so weak that he couldn’t talk.
Tendō: To weak to speak?
He grabbed Seiji with one hand by his face and brought him close. He looked him in the eyes and Tendō’s right eye began spinning counterclockwise.
Tendō (to himself): Kotokunōtsuoni… (Distinguished Anguish Demons)
With terrified expression on his face, Seiji’s eyes pupils began to shrink. He froze in place, he couldn’t even think anymore. He was now under a powerful Sharingan Genjutsu.
Tendō: Gakidō, release him. The Genjutsu was a success.
Gakidō, Tsuchikage Ōnoki, let him go and he just stood there like a statue. His face was now expressionless and his skin was slightly pale.
Aijō: How long will the Genjutsu last?
Tendō: Long enough. Now we can use him to infiltrate the Konohagakure and capture the Six and Nine-Tails.
Chikushōdō (Naruto): Let us leave. We are in enemy territory.
Tendō: Let’s go.
The Kotokunōtsuoni is an extremely rare Kinjutsu (Forbidden Jutsu), Dōjutsu (Visual Jutsu) and Hijutsu (Hidden Jutsu) that has similar effects as Shisui Uchiha’s Kotoamatsukami. The user manipulates the targets mind, causing the victim to be in a zombie-like state. The victim cannot talk and can use chakra transformed from the user via Chakra Receiver. The duration of the technique varies on the user. It also seems like the victims senses become dead as well as they can travel enormous distances without becoming tired and don’t require sleep. Whether they still require water and food is still unknown.
They all jumped away except for Seiji. Instead, he fell to his back with his arms extended outward. A few moments later, Andō and the rest of Team 5 returned.
Yugito: What happened? We heard a girl scream!
They scanned the area and saw that both Asuka and “Seiji” were knocked out. Andō and Yugito rushed to Asuka and Hayate rushed over to Seiji.
Hayate: Hey? Are you alright? What happened?
He put his fingers on his neck to check for a pulse.
Hayate: He’s still breathing.
Yugito: So is she.
Suddenly, the rest of Team 9, Shikoku and Kenta, appeared.
Shikoku: What happened?
Kenta: Oh no!
The young Akimichi quickly hurried over to her teammate.
Kenta: Coming through!
He ran through Yugito and Andō to get to Asuka. He checked for a pulse and then picked her up, gently throwing her over his shoulder. He immediately darted for the village.
Shikoku: Please excuse Kenta. He’s been sorta protective over Asuka and I lately. Frankly, I think it’s sorta lame.
Andō: No worries. Hayate, grab Seiji and let’s get him to the Medical Corps.
Hayate: Right.
He scooped up Seiji, who was still lifeless looking, and put him over his shoulder. Shikoku ran back to the village with Team 5 since Kenta darted way ahead with Asuka.
~Konohagakure Hospital
Asuka and Seiji were in hospitals beds next to each other in the same room. A Medical Ninja by the name of Baki entered the room with a clipboard. Team 5 and Konohamaru along with the rest of Team 9 were all in the room with their injured teammates.
Baki: Alright. It seems that Asuka Mitarashi, I’m guessing that is the girl, was hit extremely hard on her right side, causing a decent sized bruise.
Kenta: A hit?! Who hit her?! I wanna know!
Baki: Well, uh… We have no way of knowing who hit her until she wakes up, she’s still unconscious.
Kenta let out a low growl.
Shikoku: Calm down, Kenta-san. You’re being lame again.
Baki: Now we have Seiji Yūhi, adopted into the Yūhi family. Let’s see what wrong with him…
He began scanning his clipboard for information.
Baki: Hm… That’s strange.
Yugito: What is it? What happened?
Baki: Nothing seems to be wrong with him, except that his chakra seem to have been drained. He shows no external wounds and Hiachi Hyūga reported no internal wounds.
Andō: That’s strange… He’s in a comatose state and has no severe wounds, internal or external.
Konohamaru: That is very strange… We should alert Sakura-sama about this and tell her to tighten the village’s security just in case.
Shikoku: Already done.
Hayate: Me and Shikoku-san went up to her office as soon as we got to the village. Her office is swamped in paperwork so she’ll have to get to this later.
Andō: Alright. Let’s leave them to get some rest.
Everyone began exiting the room. Hayate looked back at him.
Hayate (thinking): Hope you’re okay, big guy.
He continued through the room door behind Yugito.
~Konohagakure Hospital, 12:00 a.m.
It was dark and Asuka and Seiji were still unconscious in their respective hospital beds. A female nurse came in to check on them and went to Seiji first. She leaned over to Seiji to adjust his blanket. His eyes flashed open quickly and before she could even think to react, he placed one hand on the back of her head and one hand on her chin. He twisted her neck all the way to the right and broke her neck in four different places. Once she dropped to the floor with a thud, he got out of bed and went over to the window. He hopped through it and began wondering the village.
A crescent moon out and the dark clouds surrounded it. He passed a tool shop in the village. Once he noticed he could use something from there, he turned around and snuck inside through the back entrance. He grabbed a large coil of rope and left. He continued on to a small home that was big enough to house two people. He stood outside of it and searched for the best point of entry. He came to the conclusion that the best point of entry was the roof.
He silently climbed up and got on the roof of the house. He could hear some snoring below him. He jumped up and threw his weight downward, crashing through the roof. He landed on top of someone with his hand over their mouth. He tied a piece of rope around his mouth to keep him from talking, sort of like a gag, and used the rest tie up his hands and feet. Seiji then threw him over his shoulder and jumped back through the roof. He then made his way to the village gates and jumped clear over them. He began trotting through the forest.
~Unknown Location
After hours of walking through an large quantity of different terrains, he’s finally made it to his destination, the southern border of the unknown country that belongs to the Takigakure. He continued trotting until he finally reached a cave in the deepest part of the country’s biggest forest. He stood outside the cave and a few seconds later was greeted by Volterra.
Volterra: Ah! You’re finally here. What took you so long?
Seiji just stood there and glared into Volterra’s eyes. He raised an eyebrow at Seiji.
Volterra: You don’t talk very much, do you?
He continued to glare at him. He dropped the body he was holding and it splashed into a puddle of water beneath him. It was Dan, the Six-Tails Jinchūriki. He had kidnapped him and brought him to the Akatsuki’s current hideout.
Tendō: Volterra.
Tendō walked up behind him.
Tendō: Retrieve the Six-Tails.
He nudged his head towards the cave, signaling Seiji to follow. He began walking towards the cave and Volterra began walking to Dan to pick him up as ordered. As he and Seiji walked pass on another, they bumped shoulders which made Volterra bounce off of Seiji’s shoulder. He tripped and barely caught himself.
Volterra: Hey–!
Tendō: Stop. It isn’t his fault. He’s my servant as of now. He doesn’t have control over his actions. That was just a coincidence.
Volterra turned and continued towards Dan, who was physically worn out because of all of the harsh terrains Seiji carried him through.
Volterra (mumbling): Better be a damn coincidence…
Tendō: What was that?
Volterra (nervous): Huh?! Uh, nothing. Must’ve been a nearby wolf.
Tendō glared at him before turning and walking into the cave with Seiji.
Volterra: Pfft… I can already tell I’m not gonna like that guy.
He grabbed Dan by his ankles and began dragging him along the ground. He continued into the cave and continued dragging Dan across the cold cave floor.

Gakidō, Tsuchikage Ōnoki, let him go and he just stood there like a statue. His face was now expressionless and his skin was slightly pale.
Aijō: How long will the Genjutsu last?
Tendō: Long enough. Now we can use him to infiltrate the Konohagakure and capture the Six and Nine-Tails.
Chikushōdō (Naruto): Let us leave. We are in enemy territory.
Tendō: Let’s go.
The Kotokunōtsuoni is an extremely rare Kinjutsu (Forbidden Jutsu), Dōjutsu (Visual Jutsu) and Hijutsu (Hidden Jutsu) that has similar effects as Shisui Uchiha’s Kotoamatsukami.

Hayate: Hey? Are you alright? What happened?
He put his fingers on his neck to check for a pulse.
Hayate: He’s still breathing.
Yugito: So is she.
Suddenly, the rest of Team 9, Shikoku and Kenta, appeared.
Shikoku: What happened?
Kenta: Oh no!
The young Akimichi quickly hurried over to her teammate.
Kenta: Coming through!
He ran through Yugito and Andō to get to Asuka. He checked for a pulse and then picked her up, gently throwing her over his shoulder. He immediately darted for the village.
Shikoku: Please excuse Kenta. He’s been sorta protective over Asuka and I lately. Frankly, I think it’s sorta lame.
Andō: No worries. Hayate, grab Seiji and let’s get him to the Medical Corps.
Hayate: Right.
He scooped up Seiji, who was still lifeless looking, and put him over his shoulder. Shikoku ran back to the village with Team 5 since Kenta darted way ahead with Asuka.
~Konohagakure Hospital
Asuka and Seiji were in hospitals beds next to each other in the same room. A Medical Ninja by the name of Baki entered the room with a clipboard. Team 5 and Konohamaru along with the rest of Team 9 were all in the room with their injured teammates.
Baki: Alright. It seems that Asuka Mitarashi, I’m guessing that is the girl, was hit extremely hard on her right side, causing a decent sized bruise.
Kenta: A hit?! Who hit her?! I wanna know!
Baki: Well, uh… We have no way of knowing who hit her until she wakes up, she’s still unconscious.
Kenta let out a low growl.
Shikoku: Calm down, Kenta-san. You’re being lame again.
Baki: Now we have Seiji Yūhi, adopted into the Yūhi family. Let’s see what wrong with him…
He began scanning his clipboard for information.
Baki: Hm… That’s strange.
Yugito: What is it? What happened?
Baki: Nothing seems to be wrong with him, except that his chakra seem to have been drained. He shows no external wounds and Hiachi Hyūga reported no internal wounds.
Andō: That’s strange… He’s in a comatose state and has no severe wounds, internal or external.
Konohamaru: That is very strange… We should alert Sakura-sama about this and tell her to tighten the village’s security just in case.
Shikoku: Already done.
Hayate: Me and Shikoku-san went up to her office as soon as we got to the village. Her office is swamped in paperwork so she’ll have to get to this later.
Andō: Alright. Let’s leave them to get some rest.
Everyone began exiting the room. Hayate looked back at him.
Hayate (thinking): Hope you’re okay, big guy.
He continued through the room door behind Yugito.
~Konohagakure Hospital, 12:00 a.m.
It was dark and Asuka and Seiji were still unconscious in their respective hospital beds. A female nurse came in to check on them and went to Seiji first. She leaned over to Seiji to adjust his blanket. His eyes flashed open quickly and before she could even think to react, he placed one hand on the back of her head and one hand on her chin. He twisted her neck all the way to the right and broke her neck in four different places. Once she dropped to the floor with a thud, he got out of bed and went over to the window. He hopped through it and began wondering the village.
A crescent moon out and the dark clouds surrounded it. He passed a tool shop in the village. Once he noticed he could use something from there, he turned around and snuck inside through the back entrance. He grabbed a large coil of rope and left. He continued on to a small home that was big enough to house two people. He stood outside of it and searched for the best point of entry. He came to the conclusion that the best point of entry was the roof.
He silently climbed up and got on the roof of the house. He could hear some snoring below him. He jumped up and threw his weight downward, crashing through the roof. He landed on top of someone with his hand over their mouth. He tied a piece of rope around his mouth to keep him from talking, sort of like a gag, and used the rest tie up his hands and feet. Seiji then threw him over his shoulder and jumped back through the roof. He then made his way to the village gates and jumped clear over them. He began trotting through the forest.
~Unknown Location
After hours of walking through an large quantity of different terrains, he’s finally made it to his destination, the southern border of the unknown country that belongs to the Takigakure. He continued trotting until he finally reached a cave in the deepest part of the country’s biggest forest. He stood outside the cave and a few seconds later was greeted by Volterra.
Volterra: Ah! You’re finally here. What took you so long?
Seiji just stood there and glared into Volterra’s eyes. He raised an eyebrow at Seiji.
Volterra: You don’t talk very much, do you?
He continued to glare at him. He dropped the body he was holding and it splashed into a puddle of water beneath him. It was Dan, the Six-Tails Jinchūriki. He had kidnapped him and brought him to the Akatsuki’s current hideout.
Tendō: Volterra.
Tendō walked up behind him.
Tendō: Retrieve the Six-Tails.
He nudged his head towards the cave, signaling Seiji to follow. He began walking towards the cave and Volterra began walking to Dan to pick him up as ordered. As he and Seiji walked pass on another, they bumped shoulders which made Volterra bounce off of Seiji’s shoulder. He tripped and barely caught himself.
Volterra: Hey–!
Tendō: Stop. It isn’t his fault. He’s my servant as of now. He doesn’t have control over his actions. That was just a coincidence.
Volterra turned and continued towards Dan, who was physically worn out because of all of the harsh terrains Seiji carried him through.
Volterra (mumbling): Better be a damn coincidence…
Tendō: What was that?
Volterra (nervous): Huh?! Uh, nothing. Must’ve been a nearby wolf.
Tendō glared at him before turning and walking into the cave with Seiji.
Volterra: Pfft… I can already tell I’m not gonna like that guy.
He grabbed Dan by his ankles and began dragging him along the ground. He continued into the cave and continued dragging Dan across the cold cave floor.
