Ryuji: [Show them the prestige of a divine beast, Saphire.] ignoring the astonished looks he received from Kakashi.

[Kuchiyose no Jutsu] a huge cloud of smoke appeared above Ryuji.

*ROOOAARRR* a loud and strong roar sent a wind slash clearing the smoke, revealing a majestic Dragon. Saphire didn't wait for any order, she just flew away to deal with Orochimaru's summons.

Ryuji: [You should go help your Kage. I will deal with their Jinchuuriki.] said before jumping down from the VIP seat towards the middle of Gaara and Sasuke's fight.

Kakashi: [Good thing you come in time to warn us.] said sweating at the idea of attacking someone like Ryu.

Asuma: […] even forgot about his smoking habits.

Shisui: [Forget about that, let's help Hokage-sama while dealing with the invaders.] using his signature body flicker to move around killing the enemy forces.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Arena-

Temari: [Hurry, Kankuro! We need to take Gaara away.] rushing to aid her little brother.

Sasuke: [You are not getting away.] blocking their escape route.

Baki: [Go! I will deal with them.] coming at their rescue.

Genma: [Sasuke, I have a mission for you. You have to capture that genin team. I will deal with their Sensei.] making sure to not lose sight of Baki.

Sasuke: [Hn!] nodded as he was about to move.

*Poof* ROOAR

Kankuro: [W-what the f*ck is t-that?] seeing a giant Dragon flying towards a one of the Snake summon. Before anyone could speak, Saphire send a wave of dark blue fire at the snake, in a blink the snake was completely shallowed in fire. After absorbing some of Ryuji's primordial chakra, Saphire's abyssal flames become even more powerful.

Gaara: [Mother ordered me to get away from that.] said with fear.

Ryuji: [The one talking with you isn't your mother… Shukaku, I know you can hear me. Stop bothering the kid or I will make sure to destroy your conscience.] appeared behind them with his purple Rinnegan visible to everyone.

Baki: [Who are you?] was extremely cautious, he didn't sense or heard Ryuji's approach.

Gaara: [I-I is gone?? I-i-it stopped? I can't hear it.] was stunned but somewhat grateful to the mysterious stranger.

Ryuji: [Kid, I will reseal Shukaku inside of you. You will be able to sleep after I finish it.] didn't even bother to answer the Suna Jounin, He keep talking to Gaara. Baki was angered and about to attack when Genma intercepted him again.

Gaara: [Noo, I need to kill … to prove my existence.] said as he sends a wave of bloodl.u.s.t.

Ryuji: [You don't need to prove anything to anyone. Your sister and your brother are here for you … despite their fears.]

[You know … my eyes are a bit special … I can see what others can't.]

[Shukaku, One tailed beast that you call mother give you an ability to control sand, but the one controlling the sand to protect you isn't Shukaku… It's your mother, your true mother.] spoke as he got near the red-haired boy.

Gaara: [W-what?] was confused for why his sand wasn't protecting him or attacking the man in front of him.

Ryuji: [I can see a soul shard anchored into your Sand …]

Gaara: […]

Ryuji: [I can see a silhouette of a woman.] said smiling.

[There is nothing more powerful than a mother's love.]

Ryuji: [Why don't you look behind you, Gaara.] Gaara rose his right hand and touched the word love in his forehead. Everyone stood frozen in place as a sand moved behind Gaara.

Behind Gaara was a woman, she had shoulder-length hair which framed her kind-looking face.

Temari: [K-ka-san?] was the first one to recognize the figure as tears run down her cheeks.

For the first time after long painful years of suffering and loneliness, Gaara cried in his mother's embrace, soon followed by Temari and Kankuro. Even if his mother now is only a projection of her 'will and d.e.s.i.r.e' to protect him, a shell of her past self.

[Even in death your mother is looking after you … Now you have to make sure she is proud of you.] giving him a pat on his head.

A few moments later they stood more composed.

Ryuji: [Hey! If I were you, I would take the sand shinobi away… Your Kazekage was killed by Orochimaru.] Baki was alarmed with the news. Ryuji ignored their teacher and created a clone to send the sand siblings away safely.

Genma: [I know that it is rude to ask now but who are you?] Asked after seeing Baki retreat and the sand siblings running away with Ryuji's clone.

Ryuji: [You are Sasuke, right?] didn't answer Genma, as Genma was about to speak again, he noticed Ryuji's Sharingan. Sasuke was about to answer when he noticed Ryuji eyes too.

Sasuke: [Y-you are an Uchiha?] He saw Ryuji's eyes change forms from black to blood red with 3 tomoe, a m.a.t.u.r.ed Sharingan.

Ryuji: [I am not the only one.] smirking as he looks at the boy becoming shocked.

Sakura: [WHAT? There are more Uchiha?] screaming as she approaches her teammate followed by their Genin friends.

Ryuji: [Yes, Shisui Uchiha is alive.]

Sasuke: [Itachi's best friend …] spoke as he remembered him.

Ryuji: [And teacher too. He will explain to you about the truth for Uchiha clan massacre.] Sasuke was confused.

Shisui: [Ryuji-san, we can't enter the barrier surrounding Hokage-sama. Orochimaru trapped him there. Can you help us?] rushed at Ryu.

Ryuji: [Speaking of the devil.] smile confusing Shisui.

[Come with me, I want you to use your sharingan and copy the jutsus that I will use helping the old monkey.] Sasuke nodded, he was starting to get accustomed with so many surprises.

"Why are you so focused on helping him?" asked Kurumi.

"I want to see how much these changes will affect his growth and what will be his choices later." Answered Ryuji.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Hiruzen Sarutobi-

[Kuchiyose: Enkoo Enma] shouted as he reaches a tree branch to summon his old companion.

Orochimaru: [A troublesome guest arrived.] frowned a bit before regaining his confidence after using Edo Tensei to revive First and Second Hokage.

Enma broke the roots that restrained Hiruzen before looking down to observe his enemy.

Enma: [Orochimaru, I said last time that if I were to see you again, I would kill you.] narrowed his eyes looking at the Snake Sannin.

Hashirama: [Sorry Hiruzen, we can't control our bodies.] spoke with a sorry expression as he just has control over his conscience but not his actions.

Tobiram: […]

*Swss* Before Orochimaru could order them to attack a vortex appeared between Hiruzen and Orochimaru. Getting out of the vortex was of course, Ryuji.

Ryuji: [Oh, my… I couldn't help but notice that this fight is a little unfair. Don't you think? 2 vs 3. ... So, I took liberty to participate to balance a bit.] spoke in a calm manner without losing his smirk.

Hiruzen: […] rose his guards against the unknown shinobi.

Enma: [Hiruzen … don't ever attack him.] sweating heavily as he looks at Ryu.

Hiruzen: [Enma?] asked puzzled. The monkey king didn't answer, even with human body similarities, Enma is still an animal at nature, He could perceive another person aura and his instincts were screaming to submit.

Ryuji: [Look with attention.] said as he saw Sasuke and Shisui nodding outside of the barrier with their Sharingan Active. They were followed by several Jounin who took care of Sound shinobi invasion after Hidden Sand retreated earlier.

[Suiton – Suishouha] Tobirama attacked sending a tsunami at Ryuji and Hiruzen.

Usually Ryu wouldn't use all hand seals but for charity, he will use today.

[Katon - Gouka Mekkyaku] breathing out a huge wave of black fire, the wave was so big that almost reached the top of the barrier. It could burn down their weak barrier but Ryuji let his flames move without touching it. Tobirama's water wave didn't eve stood a chance, it boiled away before even touching Ryu's flame.

[Mokuton Hijitsu - Jukai Kotan] Hashirama Rushes forward trying to create a grand forest to halt the attack.

It was a sight to behold, his black flames easily swept through one of the strongest ninjutsu of Shodaime Hokage. Making his special trees look like sticks being burned by a flamethrower.

Unable to stop the fire advance Hashirama and Tobirama were completely incinerated. Orochimaru tried to use reverse summon, unfortunately his right-handed man wasn't alive. The Snake Sannin was shocked but recovered quickly enough.

Orochimaru: [Open the barrier …] screamed after using shunshin to get near the edge of his subordinate's barrier. As soon as Orochimaru could move away from the stadium or even Leaf, he hears a female voice coming from his back, for some people it would be enchanting for him, It was an ultimatum.

[Tomogoroshi no Haikotsu: Kaimetsu] (All Killing Ash Bones: Annihilation) looking down Orochimaru could see a bone sticking out of his c.h.e.s.t. The bone and target started to deteriorate at a molecular level, disintegrating his body and reducing him to nothing more than a pile of ash.
