The team left two weeks later when everyone was at full strength. Kurama had made a full recovery, and his chakra was back to healing Naruto, so the scars faded within a few days. Itachi's sides had also been treated. The rest of the group didn't have much to heal, but they all trained and rested in preparation for this mission.

The six left the village in the night without the main army knowing. The normal shinobi had been told that these six were in Naruto's pocket dimension preparing for the next move in secret. Most of the shinobi were excited and thought that after a few days in that dimension those six would end the war easily.

They arrived at the borders to the land of Rain within two days. When they got there Naruto had each of them place a stealth seal on their body. They would use them until they were compromised and needed to fight.

It was raining in Rain country which wasn't an odd sight. It may not endlessly rain any longer, but the heavens still disliked dry ground in Rain country. Eventually the Rain village itself was in sight.

The group stopped just before they exited the tree line. Naruto gave a few hand signs and the other five shinobi disappeared. They were going to their respective points of attack.

While the war had been going on Anbu teams had been constantly switched out to spy on the Rain village. The Akatsuki most likely knew they were there, but as long as the Anbu didn't go any further than they were safe from harm. Currently Team Epsilon was watching over the village.

Naruto landed next to the Anbu captain of Team Epsilon. The Anbu had a rat mask. He was one of the best infiltrators in the village. Rat looked at Naruto and bowed. "Report." Naruto commands calmly.

"I saw Orochimaru summon two Reanimates a few weeks ago, but like I said in my report. They haven't left the coffins over there." Rat points at two coffins that were facing away from the two. You couldn't see inside of them and there were no signs of who they were. "I tried to get closer, but I'm afraid I couldn't without the potential of getting spotted and killed." Rat reports.

Naruto sighs. "Return to the village. Report to Gaara and Shikaku. They will give you further orders." Naruto commands.

Rat nods and disappears in a body flicker. Naruto waits for another thirty minutes before the rest of the team gets in position and notifies him via Compad. As soon as Bee reported that he was in position Naruto gave the order to attack.

Naruto stood up and unsealed his sword. He took off the stealth seal on his body. He then leaned his sword against his shoulder and casually walked to the two coffins. When he got within fifty meters two figures walked out of the coffins. The coffins sunk into the ground and showed the back of the two reanimates.

One had a white cloak with red flames at the bottom. The cloak had the writing for Fourth Fire Shadow on the back. He had blonde hair the same as Naruto's. The other figure was a woman with blood red hair. Her hair was in a ponytail, but it still went down to her lower back. She wore a standard Leaf Jonin uniform.

Naruto looked at the two with indifference as they turned around. "I wondered when he was going to bring you back father, but I didn't expect you here mother. Orochimaru seemed to be afraid of summoning powerful Uzumaki."

The Fourth Hokage, Minato Namikaze, and his wife, Kushina Uzumaki the Red Death, turned to see their son. "Naruto? You look so grown up." Kushina says.

"So, they didn't tell you I was the one you were fighting. Well, it's nice to meet you Mom and Dad, but we are in the middle of a war right now." Naruto says casually.
