Chapter 336: Kokuo and Son Goku
Chapter 336: Kokuo and Son Goku
Alexander and his party had come to Iwagakure(Hidden Rock Village). They entered with the same trick they used in Ame. Though this time Hats was prepared and instead of barking, he made the elephant's trumpet.
Iwagakure had a Kage as its leader known as the Tsuchikage, of which there have been three in its history. The rocky mountain ranges that surround the village provide a natural stronghold that it was very proud of. The village's infrastructure was built from much of the surrounding rock and stone, shaped into tower-like structures that were inter-connected by a network of bridges. The Tsuchikage's residence seems to be the tallest structure with a cone-shaped roof
Iwa's close proximity to Suna has led to numerous conflicts over the years, enough that the enmity between its shinobis had become deep-seated.
"Woah, look, that stone tower is so big." Chomei gawked at the structures for some reason.
"Chomei, can you feel your brothers here?" Alexander asked.
Chomei stayed silent for a second, and then shouted, "YES! I can sense them, they are under that building. There are 2 of them, Kokuo and Son Goku."
"Haha, don't get too excited and run away, Chomei, we will go there and get them out soon. For now, I need to learn why this planet has technology such as electricity, and stuff and is yet so backward. By the way, why did you all disperse around the world? I told you all to stay together." Alexander asked.
"Huh, it's all that Foxy's fault. He started acting like he was the boss around us and ordered us to do stuff. Nobody liked his cocky manners and we left one after another." Chomei told him.
"Hmm, it seems I will have to give Kurama-chan a fist of love." He mumbled, making Chomei giggle.
Alexander heard some rumors that Iwagakure was in a proxy war with Konohagakure. So he decided to check those rumors.Alexander infiltrated the Tsuchikage office and lazily went through all the documents there.
It showed a few things. One, Tsichikage was a crazy stubborn man. Konoha had sent him many trade deals offers but he didn't agree to it.
Iwagakure was also in a proxy war with Sunagakure. And they were indeed sending their shinobis to skirmishes with Konoha. And from the casualty reports, it seemed the Konoha was losing.
Konoha was like a cake that everyone wanted to have a piece of. He came to this conclusion because in the plans of possible allies if full out war breaks, Iwagakure had named Kumogakure and Kirigakure both.
"G-Chan, look what I found." Chomei came flying to him with a big box.
He opened it and found a lot of gold bars in it. "Haha, this must be the emergency money of Iwagakure."
He decided to do something to it. He wasn't going to steal it but he wouldn't let Iwagakure have it either. The money was there for war.
He put charms on it that made the box indestructible and not openable. Gold wasn't a currency, Iwa would have to sell the gold if they wanted to use it and what good would it be if they can't show it. It would only open if the open had the intention of using the money for a good purpose.
"Good job, Chomei. Now, let's go and free your brothers." He praised him. Chomei happily came and sat on his shoulder.
Outside, he had told Douglas and Berry to keep an eye on people entering the Tsuchikage's building, and the building where the Jinchuriki were kept. Meanwhile, Hats was sent to infiltrate the underground layer and find out what was happening there.
*POP*
Hats appeared in front of him. "Boss, they are trying to convince one of the Jinchuriki to fight in the war. The other one is ready to fight."
"Tell me about the people present there." He asked.
Hats responded, "Well there was this tiny man floating in the air. But he just left. Except that, there are a few more guards."
"Okay, let's go." He announced.
They made themselves invisible and went into the underground chamber.
They walked to where the action was taking place. A red-headed man was tied to a chair.
"Roshi, this is the last time you are being asked to do this for the village. After this, you can do whatever you want."
Roshi scoffed, "Hah, you mean to say you will kill me and make a new Jinchuriki."
There were two Jinchuriki present. One was Roshi and the other was a man wearing a red bamboo hat. Maybe because being a Jinchuriki heightened their sense they sensed Chomei's enormous natural chakra.
Han quickly sent an attack towards Chomei. But Alexander lifted his invisibility and appeared in front of the Red bamboo hat guy and grabbed his face with his palm.
He quickly checked his sins,
||Han - Category 3(All Missions)
Murder - 50
Kidnappings - 2
Sin Percentage - 51%||
Alexander decided to give him a chance. Most of the shinobi in the world probably had a similar amount of kills. He couldn't condemn all of them to death. Also, 51 percent of sin borderlines with category 2.
Not to mention, the world purity was just at 50 percent. He'd end up killing a lot of people if he started a purification spree.
"I am taking Kokuo away from you. He has suffered enough." Alexander announced.
Then suddenly Alexander's hand over Han's face started to shine. It was surely painful for Han as he was screaming a bit. But Alexander made sure he didn't die.
Alexander opened whatever seals they had used to keep Kokuo in. Then in a smooth action, Kokuo jumped out of Han's belly button.
But Kokuo didn't stop there. He made himself smaller and jumped into Alexander's arms.
Kokuo primarily resembled a white horse, but with a dolphin's head. He was a reserved individual since childhood and did not speak much. But Alexander was an exception to all the tailed beasts. They all loved him wholeheartedly.
Alexander ruffled his head, "Awww, sorry, Kokuo-chan, I didn't come sooner."
Kokuo shook his head, "It's okay, G-Chan. I knew you would come back someday."
Chomei was a cheerful one and came to greet his brother. "Hey, how are you, little brother."
They all were supposed to be older or younger according to their number of tails, though many of them didn't approve of this. Chomei was seven-tails and Kokuo was five-tails.
"Oh, G-Chan got you out too? He's going to gather everyone, isn't he? He will probably start a big war if he does this." Kokuo commented.
"Hehe, G-Chan is super strong. Do puny wars of humans matter to him?" Chomei confidently said.
"Yes, you are right. My father is the supreme being." Berry flew in. He did the same thing he did with Chomei and established that he was the big brother Berry.
Han had passed out now. But he won't die, that was for sure. The guards there tried to run away but Alexander made them fall unconscious. Now only Roshi was up but he was still tied to the chair.
"Are you going to kill me?" Roshi asked with no fear on his face.
"No, but I will be taking Son Goku from you," Alexander replied.
"Heh, it's been a long time since I called him by that name. Who are you? That you know not just Son Goku's name but Kokuo's too. And I presume that Chomei is the seven-tails." Roshi asked with interest.
"My real name is Alexander but this world knows me by Sage of Beasts. All the tailed beasts are sentient beings. Enslaving them as tools of war is cruel slavery and I hate that. Besides, look at them, If you give them respect and treat them kindly. They do not need to harm you." He explained.
Roshi looked at Berry, Kokuo, and Chomei talking happily.
*Sigh*
"At least I won't have to fight in the war now," Roshi said and surrendered to his fate.
Alexander did the same as he did with Han and a monkey came out of his belly button. Son Goku also made himself small and jumped to Alexander and gave him a hug around the neck. "Hahaha, you are back, G-Chan. I thought I would be rotting forever in that seal."
Alexander patted his head, "Haha, we will free all your siblings and will have fun like we used to."
Son Goku was always a very prideful one. He hated most humans but respected those who were kind to tailed beasts.
Son Goku looked back and noticed Kokuo and Chomei. He quickly jumped to them. "Hahaha, you two are here too. Good, three in, 6 more to go."
"Huh, I'd rather like it if Kurama was left to rot," Kokuo said, but it was out of character for him to say something like this.
"He is your brother, Kokuo. Don't say that. I will teach him how to be good so don't worry. Now, let's go to our next destination."
The three-tailed beasts made themselves small and jumped on his shoulders. Alexander also cast a notice-me-not charm on them so even if they talk and have fun, no one would disturb them.
"Yayyy, let's continue our Bijuu adventures." Chomei cheered.
