Chapter 85: CH 85
"Kit have I ever mentioned that you're my favorite container ever?" The Kyuubi stated with a grin. Ever since it had found out what Naruto had planned for his would-be assassin's execution he was all smiles.
Naruto rolled his eyes once again as he made his way towards the Raikage Tower, 'I'm pretty sure that I'm your only container. And seriously, this is why you think I'm great? Not because I took you out of that musty cage, not because I gave you free reign to run roughshod over my mindscape village, and not because I let you see what I see, feel what I feel, and all the nine yards. No, the reason you think I'm awesome is because of my preferred method of execution.'
A vulpine grin that Naruto could just feel inside of his head pulled across the demon lord's lips, "Exactly." The Kyuubi chuckled upon hearing Naruto scoff, "And you would think that you were my only container wouldn't you?"
Naruto let a look of surprise cross over his face as he almost stopped walking, 'Wait, what? You're saying you've had a jinchuuriki before? Who was it? Were they better than me? And is the fact that only I'm killing the bastard that tried to kill me really a good reason to label me as the best?' He asked the last question almost mockingly.
Kyuubi sighed, "The first one simply kept me locked up for the most part and never really did anything at all, not even really tried to get any semblance of control, I was just pretty much ignored for the most part. The second one was much the same, she never really willingly tried to come into contact with me and thus my prison, A.K.A. the mindscape in which I am kept, fell into a disheveled state, in other words it deteriorated into the sewer that you first met me in."
Naruto nodded to what appeared to the people in the streets to be himself as he thought on his prisoner's words, 'True, true… I can see how that would already put me leaps and bounds ahead of them.'
Kyuubi continued, "Both of them also held the ability to restrain my power. My first jinchuuriki had very close ties to the Shodaime Hokage and with his ability to restrain the biju with his Mokuton he ended up passing off some of the ability to reign me in to that person's already impressive skills. Did you know that my first container sealed me into their own body? I'll tell you those damn mind chains were a real pain in my ass too. The next one was much the same, like I said, only more with the mind chains, and then there was you. Of course I was never used that much, why do you think that Gaara had so many tricks with his biju and you don't? Because every jinchuuriki that Shukaku was sealed in actually used it, it had to develop tricks and add-ons to survive. I was never really used, therefore all I taught you was the Imari, because I never had to come up with anything else. I'm just glad that you had enough imagination to come up with your own stuff."
'And then there was me…' Naruto repeated in his head, 'What about me?'
Naruto saw the Raikage Tower coming in sight as he continued listening on to the Kyuubi, "You didn't chain me down to anything. As a matter of fact even after you realized that I was the one that had nearly eradicated your home years ago you still treated me levelly. You not only actually let me see the outside world, you took it upon yourself to renovate the dreary sewer I had been in up to that point. And you have little to no problem giving into your natural bloodlust that comes with the territory of possessing me, even if you do only venture to that damned Forest of Death to indulge me."
Naruto rolled his eyes, 'Well I can't exactly go around killing random people whenever I want now can I? You'd better love me for what I'm about to do then, because this is going to suck for this guy.' Naruto saw his team standing outside of the tower, two with angry looks on their faces, and the other with a simple bored look on it with a senbon for added effect. Naruto grinned as he walked up, "So I assume the old man had some dealings to work out with Kumo's brass. How's everybody feeling today?"
Kotetsu glared down at the shorter chunin, "You're so lucky that beating the crap out of you would get me thrown in jail kid. You're a right bastard you know that?"
Naruto waved it off, "Hey, I'll bet the alcohol burned the hangover right out of you didn't it? Now you're fit for service today, and you're going to see something cool in a bit. Well, not so much cool as terrifying."
Izumo looked at the boy who was being very cryptic as to why they were there, "What are you talking about Naruto?"
Naruto chuckled, "I was attacked by an assassin last night. The Raikage's going to let me publicly execute him today."
Genma looked at the stunned faces of his older team members, "Naruto I should have known you were so chipper about something today. No wonder you wanted us to come. What are you going to do to the guy?"
Naruto walked up to Genma and whispered in his ear. The tokubetsu jounin looked at the boy and shook his head, "You're crazy kid, I swear."
Naruto grinned up at him, "Being crazy is the only thing that's kept me from going insane." With that, Naruto walked inside the tower and left his team on the outside to ponder amongst themselves.

A sat at his desk with the now recovered, for the most part, Team Samui standing in front of him. The girl that was the team's namesake stood straight and composed, "Team Samui reporting for a mission Raikage-sama." A looked at the group of chunin. Karui still had a few bruises on her face, Omoi still had the telltale signs of a broken jaw, and Samui herself, while not showing any signs of outside trauma, still showed her own injuries by the way that she made no real sudden movements, probably due to the soreness of her ribs.
Sighing as he saw the expectant faces of the ninja A spoke, "Denied." He then steeled himself for the shitstorm to come.
"What!" Karui, predictably, was the first one to explode, "What do you mean we can't take any missions? Why? What did we do?"
A rolled his eyes, "If you want to take a D-ranked mission feel free, but I'm not sending you on a mission where there is implied combat. Not in the condition that you're all in, or did you think that I wouldn't find out about your little challenge to Uzumaki? It's kind of hard to hide the existence of the battle when said battle ends up putting you in the hospital."
All of the team had the decency to look sheepish. Before the conversation could continue, the Raikage's secretary knocked on the door and upon hearing a booming 'enter' made her way into the room, "Raikage-sama, you have a Naruto Uzumaki here that says you told him to show up today."
A nodded to the woman, "Go ahead and send him in." His secretary left to fetch Naruto while he turned his attention back to his team of chunin, "Speak of the devil, he's here."
Samui voiced a question, "Raikage-sama, why is Naruto-san coming to see you today?"
