"The Leaf trained us to bleed for them. So we carved out their hearts instead."
Twelve-year-old Uzumaki Naruto was supposed to be the Hidden Leaf's ultimate weapon. Instead, terrified of his power, the Village Council strapped him to an execution slab to drain him dry. But they didn't kill him. They just broke the seal on his humanity.
In the dark chambers of his mind, a blood-pact was struck. In exchange for the Nine-Tails' terrifying, unyielding strength, Naruto promised the demon one thing: total freedom when his natural life ends. Escaping into the night, he crosses paths with Uchiha Sasuke-a boy who has just discovered the grotesque, bloody truth behind his clan's genocide.
United by trauma and a burning, mutual hatred for the shinobi system, the two boys vanish into the Bingo Books. They aren't heroes. They aren't mercenaries. They are the founding alphas of Akuma-a lethal faction of high-level rogue outcasts who kill without mercy.
Armed with Sangeki, a heavy cleaver that grows sharper with every throat it slits, Naruto commands with an absolute, unquestioned malice. At his side is Sasuke, a silent storm wielding the twin tanto Akui and Ishu, slicing through elite ANBU squads with horrific, acrobatic precision.
The Hidden Leaf wanted them dead. Now, they just want to survive them.
