69 The Battle Of The Jinchuriki! Part-2
{Somewhere in the Forest outside Konoha, Land of Fire}
{11:37 AM, 1st July 78 Yrs}
Hiroshi watched as a cloud of orange appeared somewhere far in the forest, even though he had already tested that he could achieve what he wanted, there was still some random chance that something could go wrong.
He had covered quite a lot of nearby areas with his seals so at least he had a lot of maneuverability when the battle transformed from a fight between two genins to a Kage-level battle.
'Now that I think about it carefully it was a bit absurd how Naruto was able to win against Gaara, this is the most blatant use of plot armor out there.'
Kishimoto hadn't figured out the power levels in the first part of the series, that's why there were several inconsistencies. That's why even Jiraya and Orochimaru seemed weak as fuck.
'The Third Hokage was able to fight against both the First and Second Hokage at the same time using Shadow clones... and even if Kishi did try to justify it later by saying that they were just at 20% of their total power it doesn't make much sense.'
When the 4 Hokage were summoned later in the series, while the 3rd Hokage was still in his old age, he appeared stronger, and faster than in the battle that was about to take place.
Hiroshi did have a couple of seals placed on the nearby buildings to check if anything changed in the timeline but he decided to avoid that area where Kage-level shinobi were gathered. His target was right here after the battle finished he just had to grab the two knocked-out Jinchuriki and Hiraishin away.
A strong pressure descended on him as the Ichibi broke out, Hiroshi jumped back a little as he looked at the brown hamster growl at something. The feeling of dread froze him for a second before he managed to control his actions, a red blob appeared in his peripheral vision as the battle escalated.
For the first time, Hiroshi felt small, ever since he learned the Hiraishin from the simulation he had felt a little invincible. While he may not be able to fight off everyone, he at least had the insurance to escape away from any situation. That was one of the reasons he was confident to be here today, but looking at the blasts of air that almost blew him away, he felt insignificant.
'...I can't fight against a Bijuu unless I have a summon too... I don't think there is any other way to fight against a force of nature otherwise.'
Seeing the rampage that the two Titans were causing, Hiroshi contemplated his next plan, he had to waste 2 simulations in his attempt to mess around with Gaara's seal safely.
During the first simulation, he simply hid and grinded his {Advanced Fuinjutsu} level to MAX, while also gaining a couple of levels in {Uzumaki Fuinjutsu}. After that, he leveled up his basic skills and {Hiraishin} while waiting for the war to come. Using the secret skill he then wasted his body and waited for the war to end.
The 5-day cooldown he got from that was relieving as it gave him the qualifications to challenge Kage-level. After waiting for 5 days he started the next simulation, he safely managed to kidnap Naruto and Gaara, but while trying to tamper with Gaara's seal the seal broke down as he was unable to modify the seal without taking it off Gaara. As he released the Sanbi into the wild by mistake Hiroshi had to use Hiraishin to escape.
Unfortunately, Naruto died as he was knocked out while Hiroshi tampered with Gaara's seal, apparently, Naruto's death was more important as the Simulation ended.

He still remembered looking at the simulation screen in shock, he wasn't ready for something like that to happen, it disrupted his whole initial plan. Hiroshi wanted to grind the simulation and figure out a way to tamper with Gaara's seal successfully, so after he kidnapped Naruto and Gaara after their fight, he knocked out Naruto and used a paralysis seal on Gaara.
He didn't go through the whole process of weakening himself because his work wasn't done yet, so when the simulation ended with Naruto's death his stats were still at the High-chunin level, and along with him knowing the Hiraishin, the simulation gave him a jounin level strength evaluation.
While he was happy with the abundance of Simulation points that he obviously selected, the long simulation cooldown hindered his plan.
He didn't have any time to conduct any further tests before the final battle, as there was no time to experiment, he could only go through with kidnapping Gaara and Naruto and then deceive them a little as he waited for the cooldown to end.
'There are still around 26 days left in the simulation cooldown, I might have to just take Gaara.'
Hiroshi observed as the battle came to a close, Gamabutana vanished with a vanished puff of smoke as the massive Bijuu collapsed into a sand dune. Hiroshi calculated the distance and flashed to a nearby seal. Both Gaara and Naruto were lying on the ground, with Naruto dragging himself by relying on his chin.
The whole scene didn't look as impressive as it did when he first watched it on the TV screen, it all felt a little slow. Naruto went through his routine talk-no jutsu once again. Hiroshi waited for it to work, Gaara finding his first friend in Naruto was one of the moments that Hiroshi wanted to happen for his plan to work.
There was some movement on the other side, Temari and Kankuro were running towards the three of them, deciding to take care of them before anything happens, Hiroshi concentrated on their movements. He waited for them to almost pass a seal that he had placed as he got ready, he took out two paralysis seals and inserted a small amount of chakra into the trigger seal.
He positioned himself, putting both his arms wide as he activated the Hiraishin seal that he tattoed on his right arm. The only thing that Temari and Kankuro could do was widen their eyes in surprise before Hiroshi snapped the seal into their chest. The two tumbled forward as they lost control of their bodies.
Hiroshi looked at their fallen figures as he looked back at Naruto and Gaara, their eyes were now tracking his movements. Naruto struggled to stand up, Hiroshi took out two more paralysis seals as he walked towards the two fallen Jinchuriki.
"I guess I should introduce myself, you can call me 'Jun'..."

AN- It's been a shitty start to my month IRL so my bad for skipping yesterday and being late today, my laptop is acting up and it been difficult to write for the past couple of weeks, I should be able to focus back on writing starting today so hopefully it all works out!
P.S.- there were 2 simulations in this chapter, I didn't write them because, to be honest, the first one was a pure grind and only the result of the second one mattered! There will still be simulations in the future, some of the long ones when Hiroshi tries to change the timeline, but the story would also focus more on his actions in real life now that he has some for of strength!
