Rogue's Curse (Naruto Fanfiction)

8

Opening a summon portal I get ready to go to the dragon dimension but Asuma stops me. "You can't leave yet Kagura." He says and I look over my shoulder at him.

"They aren't ready." I say shaking my head thinking over the fights I've already done and knowing that the students would die if Kaguya attacked tomorrow.

"That's why you are back right. To properly train them?" He sighs.

"Yes, it's going to be a lot more grueling on them." I whisper glaring at the clouds. "Some of them have advanced well but others are holding themselves back and they shouldn't be. Like Naruto. He could have beaten me and so could Sasuke but something is keeping them from trying."

"They are the best of rivals. Worst than Kakashi and Gai." Asuma smiles and I roll my eyes.

"Gai and Kakabaka are best friends." I mutter.

"Exactly. Sasuke and Naruto let their hearts get in the way too much." Asuma says as we sit on a bench. "Honestly if Sasuke had run to Orochimaru like he was going to it would have been bad. They probably would have gotten into a huge fight and one of them may have ended up dying."

"They need to learn what it's like. War is coming." I whisper.

"Kamicha predicted it." Asuma says and I nod.

"Beings from another dimension."

"So there are more than just summoning dimensions then?"

"Yes, lots more. Like the place Obito can go using his Sharingan, it's a sort of dimension called Kamui." I respond as the others catch up to us.

"Kagy you okay?" Kankuro asks and I smile sadly, kissing his cheek.

"I'm fine but I think the festival needs to be cancelled because I need to start training them as soon as possible." I sigh. "I should be training the whole of the 5 nations honestly. Good thing we have about 4 years before this war happens." I shrug and smile at Kakashi. "Ready for your second war kakabaka?" I ask and he glares at me.

"I lost Obito and Rin in the last war, now I have Obito back but I also have my students to care for this time." Kakashi sighs and shakes his head.

"Once I'm done with them Naruto and Sasuke will be the strongest shinobi alive." I smile.

"Stronger than you?" Kurenai asks.

"We will be the strongest?" Sasuke asks.

"I'm already stronger than Sasuke." Naruto huffs and I snort.

"Actually right now Sasuke is stronger." I shrug and all the ninja's look at me shocked. "What?"

"We thought Naruto was stronger." Kakashi says.

"God no. Among the ones I fought the ones I'd consider strongest are Shikamaru and Neji along with Lee." I respond and Gai grins.

"Ahah of course they are. The power of youth flows through my students." Gai says and I nod.

"I knew I wouldn't be able to fight Neji and everyone else so I dislocated his shoulder. As for Lee only having taijutsu has turned him into a hard fighter and the will of fire is bright inside of him. You should be extremely proud." I grin at Gai who starts tearing up at my praise of his students.

"Really you think they're better than me?" Naruto and Sasuke ask in unison.

"They wouldn't be if you baka's didn't hold back." I sigh rubbing my temple's as Tsunade walks over.

"Kagura you doing alright?" She asks and I smile nodding.

"Yes, however we need to cancel this fighting festival." I say. "I've got to begin training them as soon as possible."
