[Alert! Host has summoned...]
[Itachi Uchiha (After Akatsuki)]
My rinnegan eyes widened and I froze as soon as I saw that name
'Itachi? Damn, I was going to take him later, but right now is alright, I guess'
The summoning runes on the floor got brighter before I saw the silhouette of probably the most powerful shinobi to ever come around, disabling the Edo Tensei on himself like Madara, as well as reforming Kabuto through his Izanami
The lights dimmed down to show the raven haired kid fall down onto the floor, like a puppet with its strings cut
He was wearing a tattered black shirt, mesh underneath, and both of his eyes were still bleeding
'Seems we took him from his battle with Sasuke...'
I put a hand up to his figure and it started glowing green, Kushina and Konan doing the same
Eventually his vitals were stabilized with the help of the alternate Kyubi
We had him resting on one of the spare beds, bandaged up
"So who is this?" Kushina asked with a little interest upon seeing his still activated Sharingan
I sighed "This... Is Itachi Uchiha. Clan Slayer, ANBU Commander, Uchiha Heir, Akatsuki member, take your pick"
Kushina and Konan were dumbfounded
I told both of them stories about the man, about his exploits in Akatsuki, his time as an ANBU member, how he killed his whole clan
They both were very interested in knowing about him, most likely when they heard about his rock hard loyalty
It took a few hours until he woke up
His eyes opened slightly, and he looked around the room for a little bit before his eyes landed on Kushina
"Kushina-Sama? Am I dead..?"
The red haired girl smiled and got up to face him
"Itachi, hello! Are you feeling alright?"
He coughed a bit and shook his head
"I'm at least not feeling like I'm going to die any second at least.. Where are we?"
She shook her head and I got up from my spot on the floor
"Yo!" I waved
The Uchiha looked confused "Who are you?"
I sighed "I guess I should explain, huh? Well, get ready, this is going to be a little bit of a suckerpunch"
Itachi sat up straight as I began to explain what was happening - from the alternate reality, the point he was basically a clone, and how we were before his birth
Surprisingly he was silent the whole time - likely still too tired to ask questions or it was just to unbelievable
"Damn..." Was all he said when I finished
I looked at him "I can leave you alone to get you caught up with your thoughts?"
He nodded "Yeah, thank you.."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
(With Itachi)
First things first, I leave the Akatsuki, I have to fight Sasuke, I almost die, and I get summoned here..
To top it off, everything in my life has basically been a lie?
What is happening?
Lord Third being evil all along? We're in the second shinobi war?
I sighed "I guess not all is wrong. I get to save my clan at the very least, and Sasuke will be able to grow up with a proper influence.."
I suddenly widened my eyes
"What if I'm never born because of the butterfly eff-" My shock was cut off by a tiny dragon flying in the window, giving me a small piece of paper
"What?" I picked up the paper and looked at it
'Nah, I never talked to her when I was in Konoha, and her and fugaku were already engaged by then, so you're good'
I laughed at that
"Man has a sense of style, I guess?"
I layed back on the bed and sighed
"Might as well go along with it I guess, might even get to save Izumi and Shisui.."
~~~~~~~~~
(Back to Jack)
Itachi signaled us to come back in
"You think this over?" I asked him
He nodded "It helps that I'm just a copy of the original to be honest. If I was pulled from my own world then I would have destroyed something.."
I laughed "I get that"
From the Window, suddenly, one of my dragon summons flew inside with a piece of paper
"Urgent message from the base boss! Hashirama needs you!" It yelled and handed me the paper
'We need you here ASAP, emergency' It read
I nodded and turned to the trio
"I'm needed back at base, you guys good taking care of Itachi here?"
They said they were and I immediately activated my EMS
"Kamui"
I was sucked into a large void and vanished from the spot I was in
Itachi's eyes widened "That was the sharingan, wasn't it?"
Kushina nodded
I popped out of the pocket dimension inside of the debriefing room where I was greeted to the sight of Ay, the third Raikage, Hiruzen, the third Hokage, and the third Kazekage
I glared at the elder Sarutobi "What the fuck are you doing here?"
Hiruzen just smirked "We're here to make a deal.."
My eyes narrowed "What kind of.. deal?" I growled out
I was sill quite pissed at the guy since he planned to use me as one of his tools
The man's smirk grew wider "One that involves you, and your whor-"
(A/N - I might be pushing the Hiruzen bashing a little far, but he's been portrayed as the good guy too many times and I want to change it up)
He was cut off by a wave of thick killing intent that brought him down to his knees. The other two Kage being unaffected
"If you ever... EVER.. call my girlfriends 'whores' again, then you will never see the light of day again, do you hear me?" I growled out
The elderly Kage nodded a little
"I said.. DO YOU HEAR ME?!"
He nodded faster this time "Y.. yes!"
I cut the killing intent, and calmed down
"Good" I looked towards the other two Kage and rose an eyebrow
They shook their heads and bowed a little
"We aren't here to start any trouble, in fact we want to make an alliance with you" The Kazekage said
I hummed "An alliance? What can you offer for an alliance?"
They both looked at each other and sighed
"Our Jinchuriki.." They both said at the same time
My eyes widened immediately, looking like I was a looney toons character
"You'd offer me your JINCHURIKI... Just like that???" I shouted
Ay nodded "We heard what you did with the Mizukage and the Tsuchikage, we don't want to get our villages involved In any of that, so the next bast thing is gifting you our containers now rather than later.. It does help that they live afterwards as well"
I sighed "Well if you're just gonna give me free tailed beasts..."
Sasuke and maybe Shisui, will be the last of the group to join the main circle, and otherwise it will just be clans
The group will slim down in the next world, likely only bringing Kushina, Konan, Itachi, and Natasha I think
