Uchiha's Butterfly

(AN: In this fight, most of Kaname's attacks are executed soundlessly with a single hand seal - at least it should let her fight against the elites. FYI: Fire attacks are stronger than Wind attacks, which are stronger than Lightning (...)-> Earth -> Water -> Fire. Enjoy!)

"Hand over the Kyubi Host, we came also for your eyes, they achieved an amazing price on the black market. You have ten seconds or we will start massacring everyone present" A tall masked-man ordered.

"Shisui, Hayate, take Naruto-kun and retreat to Konoha" Kaname replied with a calm voice.

"What do you mean, we will help you!"

"Sasa no! Don't leave!"

"That's not a request Hayate" Kaname caught Naruto by his nape and threw him towards Shisui.

"Mommy no!" Naruto's eyes became red with black vertical pupils in the middle of them.

"*Sigh* Aniki would have a blast if he heard that" Kaname murmured, "Naru-chan I will be back I promise, and now Sleep" her promise made Naruto look straight into her eyes, allowing her to cast a simple genjutsu.

"*Tsk-tsk* Do you believe we would let them run away?" the second assailant clicked his tongue in mockery flickering towards Hayate. He was stopped by an enormous red flaming sword impaling the earth in front of him.

"Shisui, Hayate. That's an order, I can't fight them while protecting all three of you!" Kaname was covered by an aura of a white armored female with a tengu mask, behind her four other blades were floating. Her red glowing eyes were madly spinning taking note of every movement of their enemies.

"NOW!" Shisui was shaken up by the yell, he now understood that it isn't the Kana-chan the teacher everyone liked in the academy, looking into her serious eyes he knew it's the Kaname Uchiha, a veteran of the last war, the Vampire of Konoha.

'Ah shit, I would love to see this fight…' he thought, "Hayate let's go!" Shisui retreated with Gekko at his side and Naruto under his arm.

While watching her enemies, Kaname heard two of her students drifting away from the location. Then she paid her full attention towards her enemies, the first one that ordered her was Kakuzu the Immortal from the 12'th page of the Bingo book. A very tall man with a black mask covering everything below his nose and a grey hood covering his hair, the most discerning point of his looks were his eyes, scleras were red, but his irises had almost shining green color.

Next to him just now from a flying blob of red liquid, most likely blood, materialized her second enemy, Akai the Blood Manipulator. Akai was also tall, he had an androgynous face and long dark red hair reaching the middle of his back. Kaname instantly got aware of a dōjutsu in his eyes looking very similar to her Sharingan, shiny blood-red scleras and black irises with horizontal pupils.

"Hmph, you can't touch me, bitch! With my Ketsuryūgan I never got hurt!" the loudmouth shouted at her.

"We still have got two other hostages here, cease your needless resistance and maybe we won't kill them" Kaname understood that Kakuzu was the more dangerous and cunning opponent.

"Yes Kakuzu, you have two more hostages here … <Kami-no-mon: Danmaku>" (Gates of a God: Barrage)

Both of the Akatsuki members felt a massive amount of chakra converging around Kaname, behind her hundreds or thousands of transparent ripples in space opened up.

"Evaporate…" with Kaname's calm command she unleashed hell upon her enemies and the landscape before her. With her technique, she shot thousands of different projectiles a second at her enemies, they were ranging from simple shurikens and kunais, all kinds of elemental projectiles, to the strongest techniques she was able to cast and secure for later use like <Katon: Gōka Mekkyaku>, Pakura's <Shakuton no Tama> and the swords spawned with her Susanoo. (Fire Release: Great Fire Annihilation // Pakura's Scorch Release Balls)

Before long the ground gave up under the onslaught of attacks, behind a cloud of dust Kaname scarred the earth creating an extremely deep chasm full of rocks and splintered trees. In the barrier behind her Hokage had his mouth open in a big 'O' looking gobsmacked at Kaname's power.

'Let's be sure... <Fūton: Kokyū>' (Wind Release: Breath) with a single seal she breathed out a gentle breeze from her mouth, slowly clearing the dust and unraveling the destruction. After a moment Kaname noticed Kakuzu standing in the middle of a newly created deep crater, his black cloak was ripped showing off his left arm and part of his stitched c.h.e.s.t, the mask and hood were torn to shreds revealing his face and long black hair, his entire body was still smoldering from Kaname's attacks.

Next to him was slowly reforming puddle of blood, but every time it reached a step above the ground, it fell back down.

'F.u.c.k.i.n.g c.o.c.kroaches… Eat that' she concentrated opening a new ripple.

Kakuzu felt building up of chakra, the concentration, and power behind it was choking him, for the first time in his life he felt dread and knew that he had to dodge the attack.

'A Bijūdama?!' Sarutobi looked at the black ball Kaname shot out, a moment later the sunrise of this forest was disturbed by a new glowing sun.

The light reached retreating Hayate and Shisui, they stopped a little wondering about what's going on, before long, a loud sound of an explosion caught up with them.

"Are you still sure we should help her fight?"

"Okay, I'm sorry. You were right Shisui-kun, we would only hinder Kaname-san. Let's get to Konoha asap and bring reinforcements"

Kaname was extremely tired, her last attack took way more chakra than it should. But thinking about it, Fū's tailed beast ball exploded prem.a.t.u.r.ely, she was dreading that her enemies somehow survived it. Letting the dust clear, she saw that the explosion created a second smaller crater in the side of the bigger one, it barely reached her enemies.

This time she did not see any moving blood inside, but Kakuzu was still in one piece lying on the ground after getting thrown by the shockwave. His black coat was torn to shreds leaving him behind only in his grey pants, on his back Kaname noticed three masks, he slowly stood up glaring at her.

"Firstly my Lightning, now I had to sacrifice the Wind. You will pay for that" he growled.

"Shit, why it is never easy…" Kaname turned her head towards the Hokage.

Barrier blocked any sound from getting through but from the movement of her mouth Sarutobi understood a single word "S-a-y-o-n-a-r-a". After voicing her goodbyes she jumped towards Kakuzu down the crater.

"Whore, when I will finish with you I will eliminate the old-man and your black-haired mate, in ten minutes those genins you let run away will be screaming out your name in pain" Kakuzu was threatening while trading blows with Kaname. A brief moment later from his back shot out a mass of thousands of tendrils heading towards Kaname's stomach.

Kaname slashed at them with her katana, instead of easily slicing them off she heard a loud *ping* of broken metal, then she felt a rib-braking punch that knocked her back.

"Guh, what the heck?! You are a tentacle monster? I have seen enough of Jiraya's work to see where this is going…From now on I will call you Tentacle Fetish"

"*Growl*" the masks on his back ventured above his arms.

'I don't have enough chakra for a prolonged fight, normal genjutsu doesn't work, probably those tentacles mutated his brain. <Tsubasa-no-kioku> doesn't work on psychopaths either…' she massaged her belly after getting knocked back four meters away (approx. 13ft), at this moment one of the black tendrils shot her way in amazing speed, with her evolved Sharingan she barely dodged the attack. Behind her back from the black mass, a white mask with red markings revealed itself and opened its mouth.

Kaname felt the heat coming from her back, 'Oh fu-, Susano-!', she was too late, a scalding ball of fire hit her in her left arm, the explosion sent her rolling on the ground. Her mind blacked out for a couple of seconds from the pain, luckily the explosion gave her a brief smoke screen. With traces of tears in the corner of her red eyes, she improvised by cutting the nerve connection between her left arm and her brain, leaving her dangling and scalded hand recovery for later, at least the pain didn't cloud her mind now.

At this moment her impromptu healing was interrupted by another ball of fire.

'F.u.c.k this, I will not die here… <Suiton: Suijinheki>!' (Water Release: Water Wall Formation) She intercepted the projectile by creating a literal wall of water before her, in the corner of her eyes she noticed a speeding rock bullet that easily penetrated through her defense, she barely flickered away dodging the attack.

'What the heck?! Am I fighting against multiple enemies? <Katon: Karyūdan>!' (Fire Release: Fire Dragon Bullet) she sent her attack towards the cloud of dust hiding the last known Kakuzu's location, in response, Kaname saw a pillar of water rising in the air blocking her attack.

'Fire, Earth and now Water? Does he have all of the elemental affinities?' From her right flew a spear made of rocks grazing her t.h.i.g.h.

'Guh! Enough of this <Fūton: Toppa>!' (Wind Release: Breakthrough) she cleared the battlefield from the dust, her eyes saw a weird sight, two black tendril monsters were encircling her each with a uniquely shaped mask, one had a look of a tiger with red markings, the other had a beak with blue markings. Kakuzu stood in front of her, his face distorted in a snarl, his body was covered by a swirling mass of tendrils. Next to him, Kaname noticed a body of blood reformed all the way to the man's midsection.

"Oh, come on… Won't you two just give up?" She asked taking deep breaths.

"I will take your heart!" Kakuzu answered, two of his masks shot their projectiles at her from two sides.

"*Breathe* No thank you, there is an order for that Tentacle Fetish" she dodged the attack, 'So the red one shots fire attacks and blue is responsible for water attacks, meaning Kakuzu shot the rock projectile. Good that I copied some attacks from Minato-san. I need to finish it before Akai recovers. <Raiton: Jinraisen>!' (Lightning Release: Thunderclap)

Kaname threw a ball of lightning towards Kakuzu, his tendrils shot him out of the way of the attack, 'Ah, now I understand why he is so pissed. He talked about sacrificing his Wind and Lightning, I was lucky enough to somehow destroy two of his masks before the fight, he cannot protect himself from my lightning attacks, I should use those. But the problem is Akai, he recovered all the way to his neck!'

From her left, she was attacked by a massive flaming beam coming from the red masked monster, she backflipped dodging it before she was able to land a water torrent from her right came straight at her. While she was still horizontal to the ground she kicked out with her left leg continuing her backflip adding additional spin that let her dodge both the highly pressured stream and the sharp rock bullet shot from her front. She replied by shooting at each of the tendril monsters it's elemental counter weak point, fully knowing that they will dodge.

"Ho, it seems you understood my powers, but…" Kakuzu melded with his masks, "I would like to see what will you do now" He shot a rock spear at Kaname, his fire mask caught it in flight igniting it.

"<Susanoo!>" Kaname was protected by her white aura, with the use of it she intercepted the projectile in air, at the same time for the first time she used multiple hand seals, "I'm sorry I need to deal with your friend right now, <Raiton: Sandā Keimusho> <Futon: Hokori Senpu>!" (Lightning Release: Thunder Prison // Wind Release: Dust Whirlwind)

All around Kakuzu materialized bolts of blue lightning capturing him in a tight cage without a chance to move, a moment later he and his prison were caught in a ball of wind that raised him above the ground and blocking his vision and sound from outside.

As Kaname was watching the captive, her sightseeing was interrupted by a torrent of blood heading her way, she blocked it by using Susanoo, "*Wheeze-wheeze* And they call me the Vampire… Just look at you Akai, even your mother would have nightmares if she saw you like that" she replied looking at the maddened man, his body was dripping with blood coming from his eyes.

"Bitch! You're the first person that was able to hurt me, but this time I'm ready for whatev-" he was impaled by two massive red swords Kaname shot from her Susanoo, they just went through him impacting the ground.

"Let me tal-" she shot a swirling ball of fire through his head, but it passed through him as well, his body was made of liquid blood, Kaname instantly realized that physical attacks won't work either.

"*Growl* I'm-" he started.

"Rasengan!" Kaname shunshined behind him and delivered a red ball to his head, for a single moment the blood and his head got sundered apart, but in an instant, his face returned with anger written on it. She jumped back thinking about her next move.

'His yap just does not close, he likes his voice that's for sure, but I can't continue like that, my jutsus will expire in a minute or two and Kakuzu will be left free. Akai is a pain in the a.s.s in his own way, how to attack an immaterial… immaterial, hmm I should teach him that his Kekkei Genkai isn't as overpowered as he thinks it is, hehe' she thought of a plan reaching with her right hand to the storage seal hidden in her pouch on the back of her h.i.p.s.

"...-ex slave for the rest of your miserable life! When I will fin-"

"Sorry I didn't listen, did you say something?" Kaname asked confused while cleaning her right ear with her finger. (AN: Kakashi ftw :-P)

"GRAH! DIE!"

'His attacks aren't fast, he is way slower than Kakuzu and he doesn't care about defense. I should spare the last fumes of my chakra for the stronger opponent just in case' Kaname left the protection of Susano, and with her evolved Sharingan she dodged around the streams of blood, shot out from Akai, they packed some punch because every time one hit the ground it left a small hole behind.

With amazing speed and grace, Kaname swirled around projectiles getting closer and closer to her enemy, with the last front flip with a full twist she landed behind his back with a white mask in her hand that she instantly put on his face.

"What is going on?! What did you do bitch? Why can't I move?!" he stood fixed to the ground, his body and hands created a 'T' shape.

"I have got bad and deadly news for you Akai. The bad news is that you're now just a man, your powers and body are not for you to control anymore, saying that I can at last put you under genjutsu. The deadly news is that there is a f.u.c.k.i.n.g real Shinigami floating behind you" Kaname pointed behind his back at the emotionless Soul Reaper.

"Let me go!"

"I should just kill you before Kakuzu gets out of his prison. But no, I was looking for a willing sacrif- *cough* volunteer to help with a small project of mine. You can be glad your life will be used to break the soul of Yondaime Hokage from his prison. It should be the only good deed you made in your entire life according to the record in Bingo Book, Mr. V.i.r.g.i.n Rap*st"

"No! Those are lies, I never rap*d! Please!" he begged.

"Really? Look into my eyes and promise me you never did that!"

"I prom-" Kaname caught him in a genjutsu.

"You talk too much, Sharingan can catch lies easily you moron"

"Now what? Snake wrote something about opening the belly of the beast with a sword using the sacrifice…" Kaname looked at the emotionless face of the Shinigami and a blade in his sharp teeth, 'Hmm if Shinigami repeated movements of Kana-1 when she was possessed, maybe I can use its sword as a key. Will the seppuku kill the Soul Reaper? Not likely, you can't kill what's dead already, but I'm not sure about repercussions, from what I know the mask and the seal is indestructible, but I wouldn't want to let a freaking Reaper of Souls out to roam around the world… Hmm, shit I don't have the time, I need to let Minato-san out, a portion of my chakra sealed in the reaper will help me against Kakuzu as well' She took her last look at the beast face feeling that's something is wrong, the last time it followed her with its eyes, now they are unfocused looking in front of it.

"Ah, shit! Sink or swim" Kaname took a step forward taking out a kunai and held in near Akai's mouth, she gave him the command to take it into his hand, he raised his right hand taking hold of it, with her next command he put it next to his belly, the Shinigami parroted his movements.

"*Sigh* Something is not right…" Kaname had a gut feeling.

"Stop! " she ordered lowering her head in thought, 'What's going on, my entire body is screaming that there is a danger here…' Kaname took a last look at the Soul Reaper and her heart instantly felt dread, he was staring straight at her face with an evil toothy smile. At this moment she heard a loud *tunk* of self-impaling with a consecutive *rip* of slashing the flesh.

'F.u.c.k! I am a fool...' She saw an oozing black wisp heading towards her and knew that she will not like the outcome, it easily got absorbed into her body, in a moment her head felt agonizing pain, she landed on her knees puking black oily substance from her mouth.

She heard an ancient voice in her head cackling madly, somehow she understood the language.

'Bwahaha after many millennia I'm almost free' said the ancient voice.

'*Retch* What are you?' Kaname barely raised her head looking into Shinigami's eyes.

'I'm the balance. Where there are Life and Chakra, there are also Death and Chaos. Where there is a Tree of Life, there is a God of Death and you mortal will become my host' it replied.

'Yeah, how about a no?' Kaname was still throwing up a black substance, half of her left eye became black.

'It's only a matter of time mortal, this time you are too tired to oppose me'

'This time?' she asked.

'Doesn't matter, you will die and become my host soon mortal'

'*Blergh* F.u.c.k you, it's my body.' she replied, her left eye became fully black.

'It is, but only temporarily mortal, soon I will burn the spawn of Shinju Tree and the life of this world, bwahaha'

'*Retch* What is Shinju Tree?' Kaname was fishing for any information that could help her.

'Something you will never see in your life mortal, do you feel the heat retreating from your limbs? Allow your mind to show you your life memories, and let go. Oh?' Kaname raised her head, Akai had a hole in his c.h.e.s.t, next to him stood Kakuzu with Akai's heart in his hand.

"I did not know Akai could summon souls, but at last his heart belongs to me" Kakuzu said.

'Good, if he lets you go your body will be mine, if he kills you I will come back as well, goodbye mortal' Soul Reaper disappeared and Akai's body dropped on the ground dead, leaving behind a small yellow wisp floating above him.

"Akai was better than I thought, he somehow disabled you from further combat. Now you owe me your eyes and a heart Uchiha" he took a step towards retching Kaname.

"F.U.C.K OFF!" "ⷚףשט ϭⷚⷚ!" From Kaname's mouth, two languages were spoken at the same time, the second wasn't in her voice, it was much more guttural, the sound sent out a powerful shockwave around Kaname mincing everything around her and turning rocks to dust.

"Eh?" Kakuzu heard her voice, he barely made his tendrils block the shockwave heading straight at him. He felt two of his masks and hearts behind them break apart, his hand that was holding Akai's heart got minced before he was able to pull it back, in just a moment he was sent flying coughing the blood out from his mouth.

Looking back at Kaname, her right eye had just a sliver of whiteness on the sclera left, but around her floated a wisp of yellow light.

"*Cough* F.u.c.k, I will not die here, it's not worth it" he hobbled away retreating from the battlefield.

Kaname felt the life leaving her body, the cold darkness was encompassing her mind. A moment later in the middle of her body, she felt a yellow point of warmness and power. Then she heard a voice she could never forget.

"My dear Kana-chan, you have grown into an amazing kunoichi, Kushi-chan would be proud. I can't do much, but I will help you fight the corruption off"

Her sight ventured back up, she saw a shadow of a warm smile and blonde strands of hair.

"Minato-san?" A moment later she lost her consciousness.
