Izumo ran quickly through the vast beaches of Miyasato island, sweat was dropping like a river from his forehead. The boy was worried, no he was scared.

"Tiger, what did Kurenai-san tell you?" asked Izumo quickly, as Genma who was also beside him looked away from Izumo.

"Give me a fucking answer, dammit!" cursed Rangiku frustratedly,

Rangiku was really nervous, the 3 soldiers had woken up a few minutes ago only to see Naruto's clones holding a giant barrier until they suddenly vanished with painful screams followed by giant explosions far away from their position. She knew what those explosions were, none of them could ever forget how dangerous tailed beast balls were. It only proved that the malicious chakra they had felt before being knocked out was from a Jinchuuriki, but who was strong enough to knock out so many blacklight members and other regular ninja?

She knew they were not as strong as Naruto, but they too had stood against the Four and Five Tails. But if they were so easily subdued then it only meant one thing.

They were currently in Kiri's territory, so that ruled out the possibility of Eight Tails (Gyuuki) as they knew he was defending Kumo against Jiraiya's charge.

Taki had the Seven Tails (Chomei) but they were staying out of the war, and their female Jinchuuriki was in the village.

The Nibi (Two Tails), Yonbi (Four Tails), Gobi (Five Tails) had been killed along with their Jinchuuriki in this war. The One Tails (Ichibi) was in Suna, as they too were staying out of this war.

That only left the Six Tails and the Nine Tails who were both missing since the beginning of this war. Even if the Six Tails Jinchuuriki had returned to protect his homeland (Kiri) she doubted he would be powerful enough to take out so many of them, and corner Naruto.

If her assumption was true, then...

And the dishearted look in Genma's eyes did show her that something bad had happened with Mikasa's company. It was no secret that Genma liked Mikasa since Boot camp, and right now he looked miserable which suggested that Mikasa...

Her thoughts shifted towards Naruto, in the past few days he had done so much for her. She cared about him in ways more than a friend would, and she knew that she would be lying to herself if she denied this fact.

She clearly remembered what had happened between them before they embarked on this mission...

(Flashback: Few Hours Ago)

Rain heavily fell from the sky as a boy could be seen standing on the edge of a ship. His eyes were currently fixed on an island, a few more ships could be seen beside the boy which also were full of ninjas.

The sound of light footsteps could be heard as a young blonde girl stood behind the boy, her eyes were worriedly staring at the person in front of her.

"Be careful, Naruto"

She was surprised when Naruto stepped down and walked towards her, his face was still hidden by a dark black mask but his piercing dark black eyes intimidated her even today.

Rangiku gave him a warm smile which he returned gladly, she noticed him looking around and after a few moments a satisfied look appeared in his eyes.
