Dexter's POV;

The King of Hell vanished and left the fully healed and alive body of both Haku and Zabusa. I waited a moment for them to wake up and thy both looked fairly surprised and stunned. First at themselves and then at each other. Haku's first reaction was to throw herself at Zabusa. She started to cry while he slowly rubbed her back. He didn't look like he was over the whole resurrection shit.

“What happened?”, he finally asked after some minutes. Haku was still sobbing a little but did not cry anymore.

“There is a Jutsu in my possession that allows me to heal the shortly deceased. It's taxing and not something that I like to use, as it is a forbidden technique. Nonetheless, I used it on both of you”, I answered and gave a wide-eyed Haku a jacket. She looked at it for a moment and then at me, not knowing why I would want to give her a piece of cloth.

I simply gestured to her left breast and she looked down, finding a bare chest. She had pretty pink nipple by the way.

Her head turned as red as a tomato and she grabbed the jacket faster than Guy could run without his weights.

“If I wouldn't have known that I died I would not believe you. But why? I mean, we seriously can't be so special for you to revive us”, asked Zabusa after Haku put her jacket on. He also glared at me for the whole time.

“Easy, I already said that I want to help you with the civil war in Kiri, it's easier for me to have you with me than to find the rebels on my own. I'm not really used to the foggy land of the Land of Water. You're practically my guide”, I answered and released the Henge on my tails.

To say that the slightly girly scream of Zabusa wasn't funny would be the biggest lie I've ever seen.

“What the fuck?!”, he shouted in shock. Haku reached out to pat one of them. Who would take it against her, I mean fluffiness rules.

“They are soft”, she said quietly and I moved one of them around her so that she was clad in a fluffy tail.

°A fluffy tail that is strong enough to crush her°, reminded Kura-chan.

°True, true°, I said idly and stroked Haku's cheek with one of the tails. It seems to have tickled her because she fell into a fit of giggles.

Zabusa looked like he couldn't make heads or tails out of this and then simply let himself plop down.

“Uzumaki, you are something else. Never have I seen someone as strong or as strange as you. What are you?”, he asked tiredly.

“I'm a Jinchuriki in a healthy relationship with its tenant”, I answered nonchalantly and retreated the tail that was still in Haku's hands. She pouted a bit but didn't comment on the sudden lack of fluffiness.

“I know about Jinchuriki, the current Mizukage is one. He isn't like you, there are no changes to his body from the demon in him”, countered Zabusa.

“That is true, Yagura has neither the relationship with his Bijuu nor has he the possibility left to change like I did. It is a painful process and requires a child as well as the willingness of the Bijuu to do this”, I explained.

“Heh, you never stop learning. Okay, so what now?”, he asked with newly gained vigor.

“Now I'll give you a seal that allows you to send me a message. You will then take the money I gave you and search for the resistance. In the meantime, I will go back to Konoha and continue with my plans. Don't contact me before the Chunin exams are over”, I said and he looked at me with a raised eyebrow.

“Why the Chunin exams?”.

“Easy, they won't be as Konoha thinks they will and I plan to take advantage of that”, I answered with a laugh.

Zabusa gave Haku a pat on the head and then stood up.

“Very well, Haku and I have to speak with each other anyway”. This might have been the first time for me to see him smiling.

“Do that, here is the seal. Just put Chakra into it and you'll be able to speak with me”, I said and gave him a piece of paper.

“See you then”, I added and turned around.

“Thank you”, said Haku before I left and I gave her an eye smile before leaving.

I would have liked to go to the Konoha team, but I got a message from one of my fox summons. It was the summon that spied on Pakura. Seems like she is under attack from her team. They are near, only a few minutes of high-speed travel in Bijuu mode away.

So I quickly activated the golden cloaked mode and rushed off towards the last location of my summon. And I found them quickly enough, explosions riddled the forest at the border to the Land of Water and I felt the emotions of rage and betrayal of one specific woman.

I didn't know when or where, or even why she was hunted, only that she got killed by someone, somewhere, and some time and that she got resurrected during the fourth great war by Kabuto.

She has the ability to let things explode by simply touching them. Or was it to heat things up? Can't remember. Anyway, I neared their position and toned down the glow of my Chakra cloak.

There, between the trees, was a team of ten Suna Ninja that were trying to kill one single Suna Ninja. They also had the support of five Kiri Ninja.

She, supposedly Pakura, was a rather good looking woman of 1.6 meters height. She had white eyes, green hair that ended in orange and wore black Ninja clothes.

°The hair colors that are natural and possible are strange in this world°, I muttered in my mind.

°How so? Is it different in other worlds?°, asked Kura-chan.

°Yup, natural hair colors are brown, black, blond or red. At least in most worlds. Those that have some resemblance to anime or manga are more diverse. Still, a world without Chakra or Mana would not have any other color than the previously named. Anyway, it seems like she is almost dead. Her Chakra is seriously low and it looks like she has run out off supplies°, I explained and saw how a group of three Suna Ninja slowly walked forward.

“Pakura, please understand, your death is necessary for the peace of Sunagakure”, said one of them. His tone did not sound the least sorry about the whole situation.

“Shut up Charn, you were always the jealous one”, hissed Pakura back.

Charn's face twisted from one of mockery into rage; “Shut up you stupid bitch. You're a woman, act like one and stay in the kitchen”.

°Kill him°, demanded Kura-chan and I eagerly obliged to her request. I jumped down from my spot and impaled this Charn guy with one of my nine tails. The others swished rapidly behind me.

A flick of my tail was enough to throw the now dead guy off and a second flick got rid of the blood.

It took them a whole five seconds to get over the sudden death of this guy and they all threw either a Jutsu or some form of projectile at me. There was even one who used a puppet to attack.

I equipped my tails with the Susano'o armor and build a cocoon with them around me and Pakura.

“Who are you?”, she asked while the attacks on my tails were audible. Explosions and clinking sounds kept on for nearly a minute until it got quite enough for me to speak comfortably.

“My name is Dexter Uzumaki, I noticed that your allies are attacking you and decided to ask for the reason”, I answered. She looked reluctantly to answer, but choose did it at the end.

“They betrayed me...my death allows Kirigakure and Sunagakure to end their small war”, she said with disdain.

“Hmm, so you have no home? Do you want to become a part of Uzushiogakure?”, I asked and she looked at me with an open mouth.

“Why would you do that? What would I have to do?”, she asked after a short silence. The attacks started again, this time a little stronger, but nothing that could overcome my armor.

“I don't like it when someone betrays their allies, Uzu had enough of that. We know how it feels and want to help you. There won't be revenge, but who knows. Maybe sometime in the future we are at odds with Suna and you can give them payback”, I answered once the noise was gone.

“You can win this? There are more than a dozen ANBU Ninja against you and I don't have enough Chakra left to fight”, she said with little hope.

“Sure, let me give you something that will help you with your defense”, I said and put a hand on her head.

°If you would Kura-chan?°, I asked and red Chakra bubbled from my hand over to her body. The bubbles fully surrounded her and formed the fox shroud of a two-tailed Jinchuriki.

“What is that? It feels so warm,... my wounds they are healing!”, she exclaimed in wonder.

“It's a Chakra shroud, highly potent Chakra. It will help you with your defense. Stay behind and don't try to do anything too Chakra consuming, the shroud is not infinite and more for protection than attacking”, I answered and opened the cocoon after the third attack barrage.

The surrounding were scorched dark, some parts were damp from water and weapons littered all around us. The 14 Ninja that were hell bent on attacking us did just that. Four of them jumped at Pakura and six others at me.

The emphasis lies on jumped. This made them immobile and easy prey to my tails. All of Pakura's attackers were impaled and two of mine as well. The remaining three managed to blast themselves away with a minor wind Jutsu.

Their retreat was covered by poisoned needles that came out of two puppets. None of them managed to penetrate the green armor of my Susano'o. Pakura jumped back and got into a defensive position.

At first, no one made a move, neither I or Pakura nor the remaining eight Ninja. Then two of them made hand signs and began to shoot wind blades at me. Another two attacked Pakura, they had Kiri headbands and were shouting insults at the bloodline scum that she apparently was.

The the two puppeteers were moving their puppets to my flanks and they began to spy flames out of their mouths. Forcing me to become either grilled or sliced into pieces by the air blades.

The only free side was my front, but there were the last two Suna Ninja, waiting for me to come. Both had swords and looked ready to use them.

I grinned and jumped forward, my legs first and each foot had a Rasengan under it.

My speed and the way I attacked cost them their life as I plunged through their weapons and then shredded through them with the Rasengan.

But I wasn't finished, I changed both my arms into the Asura path cannon and blasted the puppeteers out of existence with a beam of death.

The last two Suna Ninja turned around and run. I wasn't too keen on pursuing them, so I decided for the overkill way and began to form a Bijuudama. Each tail moved into a half circle and pointed directly at a slowly forming purple ball in front of my mouth. I let it grow until it was as large as a head and then shot it at the back of the fleeing Ninja. An explosion rocketed the ground and trees were uprooted. The forest began to burn and the smoke cloud was visible for kilometers.

With that taken care of, I turned around and saw Pakura who had grabbed both her attackers by the throat and was burning them with her shroud and her blood line. So it was producing heat.

The enhanced strength that is granted by the shroud allowed her to not only pick them up with one arm each but also to crush their windpipe with ease. She let the now almost dead Kiri Ninja go and turned around to me, the raging inferno behind me must've looked epic.

“So what now?”, she asked, not the least bothered by my attack. That or too tired to care.

“Now we're going to Uzu, where you can settle in”, I answered and reabsorbed Kura-chan's Chakra. Her shroud receded and she fell down from the sudden lack of strength.

I picked her up and teleported into my and my mother's house in Uzu.

My mother was in the living room and it looked like Mikoto was also with her.

“Hi, I found one of the people I wanted to recruit”, I said while strolling inside the room. I put Pakura down on a couch and then gave my mother and Mikoto a hug.

“Hello Dexter, your clone is in the kitchen”, said my mother and I sat down before dissolving said clone. The memories and emotions that flooded me showed me his daily live with mom and his tasks in Uzu.

Uzu is now a big rumor in the Elemental Nations and had sent a request to participate in the coming Chunin exams. The request was already accepted and we're planning to send one team to them.

“Everything okay?”, asked Mom with concern, she knew that gaining memories from a blood clone is taxing.

“Yes, this memory and emotion influx is a double bladed sword. On one side it can change me, on the others side it allows me to live with you, while simultaneously doing my things in Konoha”, I said with a tired sighed and took my mask off.

She affectionately stroked my hand and smiled kindly. Kushina is a good mother, she's trying hard to get to know me, always there when my clone had problems and understanding in most things I have done in my past. I mostly told her about what I've done in this world and some minor parts of my last and first life.

Still, she was a nice woman and I don't regret to have revived her. Mikoto was also friendly and acted like an aunt. She and the remaining Uchiha were having a good life. She tried her best to have the children not getting arrogant or otherwise falling back to the Uchiha problem.

“I'm going to bed, fill Pakura in if she wakes up. Tomorrow I'll have to go back”, I said and went to bed. The Chunin exams will start in a few days and they will start the end of my life in Konoha.
