Chapter 11: Secrets and Lies…

The man known as Klahadore stood in front of them... he was Kaya's loyal butler. He didn't look too happy.

"If you don't have business here vacate at once…" said Klahadore.

"but we do…" said Luffy, "We came to ask for a big ship…"

Klahadore glared at the rubber man, "I can't help you there…" he said.

Naruto got an idea, he transformed into his girl form.

"Oh please… can you please change you mind…" he said in a very cute way.

Sakura, Nami, Usopp, Kiba and the Usopp Pirates stared at the site.

"I knew he said he could transform but this is…" said Nami not knowing how to finish her sentence.

"Weird?" asked Sakura.

"That's one of the words…" said Nami.

"I'm sorry I won't change my mind… and weren't you just a boy…" said Klahadore slightly confused.

Naruto scowled as he changed back to being male, "You certainly pay attention" he said.

"But you tried Kit… you tried…" said Kyubi.

"So you're Usopp and his brother Kiba… I've heard about your reputation…" said Klahadore.

"Oh really, then you can me "Captain Usopp!" but flattery is not needed…" said Usopp while Kiba rolled his eyes.

"I've heard that the guard saying that you've been sneaking around…" said Klahadore.

"Yeah me and brother have been chasing a giant mole… our dog spotted it earlier…" said Usopp.

"Klahadore laughed "My, my you two have a gift for deceit…" said Klahadore.

That when he began to bad mouth their dad then accusing that they were after Kaya's money… however.

"Can you call off your dog…" said Klahadore, Akamaru was biting his pant leg.

"Bad Akamaru…" said Kiba, Akamaru whined and walked over to Kiba, when he was by his master Kiba whispered to Akamaru "Good boy… good boy…" which he waged his tail to.

"Stop Klahadore…" said Kaya.

"But I speak the truth…" said Klahadore straitening out his pant leg.

Then Klahadore began to bad mouth Yasopp more by saying he abandoned his family for treasure hunting…. He began to receive glares from Luffy and Naruto, However…

"I would like it if you would call you dog back… again… I believe it is worse this time…" said Klahadore… this time Akamaru was biting his butt.

"Akamaru…" said Kiba harshly.

Akamaru let go and sobbed whiled walking back to Kiba… when he got back Kiba said "Good boy… good boy…" then noticed that he had a piece of black fabric in Akamaru's mouth.

"Klahadore…" said Kaya blushing slightly.

"Hey do you feel a breeze…" said Naruto laughing.

Klahadore sighed…

"I see Rogue Town, I see…" sang Kiba.

"Enough that… you should train your dog better…" said Klahadore.

"He is trained…" said Kiba, he picked bent down began to pet Akamaru who transform into a clone of Kiba, Klahadore just glared at them more.

"You know you could use you lying ability to say he was something else… or say he wasn't your birth father…" said Klahadore.

Even with Akamaru's help Usopp couldn't take it anymore… he was about to sock Klahadore… well if wasn't for the fact that Klahadore was singing soprano thank to Akamaru who was once again a dog, biting his crotch while Kiba held Usopp back.

"You were about to hit me weren't you…" said Klahadore in a high voice trying to shake Akamaru off of him, "You see how he was going to resort to violence…"

"I will never ever lie about my father!" yelled Usopp, "I'm proud of my father and my pirate heritage…"

"So am I!" yelled Kiba.

"Our father is a brave warrior of the sea…" said Usopp.

"Brave Warrior of the sea… ha… that's just a deception... brave warrior of the sea…" said Klahadore.

"If you stop bad mouthing our father I'll ask Akamaru nicely to let go of your little friends…" said Kiba, "Unless you like sounding like a little forest elf…"

Klahadore sighed, "Fine… but it doesn't' change anything…" said Klahadore.

Akamaru let go of Klahadore and Usopp clamed down somewhat.

They both glared at Klahadore who was kneeling down on the breathing heavily.

"We're never coming here again…" said Usopp.

"You said it…" said Kiba.

Akamaru barked in agreement.

"You stupid Butt-ler!" yelled Carrot

"Yeah you moron!" yelled Pepper.

"Dumdum!" yelled Onion.

"Kitty undies!" yelled Konohamaru.

"Who told you!" yelled Klahadore.

"Part of your pants are missing… remember" said Konohamaru.

"You brat you'll get yours…" mumbled Klahadore.

Later Sasuke, Zoro, Nami, Sakura and most of the Usopp pirates were hanging around a fence.

"I wonder where Luffy and the Dobe went…" said Sasuke.

"Probably cheering up Captain and Kiba… they went t0 the shore again… that's where they to think… and talk to each other…" said Pepper.

"Aren't you missing someone?" asked Nami.

"Yeah the kid that looked an onion…" said Sakura.

"Why do they look like vegetables!" screamed a very confused Inner Sakura.

"Oh he'll come when something weird happens…" said Pepper.

"Then he'll come here screaming his head off…" said Konohamaru.

"It's terrible!" yelled Onion running from somewhere.

"See…" said the other 3 boys.

"A weird backwards man! It's a weird backwards man!" yelled Onion running towards the group.

"Riiiight…" said the rest of Usopp's pirates.

"No really see for yourself…" said Onion.

It was true… there really was a weird backwards man…

"Who called me weird!" said the weird back wards man, "I'm not weird at all."

The hat, the heart shaped sunglasses, the face that resembled a certain weirdo celebrity… he was weird.

"Your not?" asked Sakura

"If you're not weird my name is Jenny!" yelled Inner Sakura.

"I'm just a traveling a hypnotist…" said the weird man.

"Wow a hypnotist!" said Konohamaru.

"Show us a trick…" said Carrot.

"No way… why would I do that to some kids I don't even know…" he said "Okay…"

"He is weird…" said Zoro with a sweat drop.

"When I say one, two Jango you'll fall asleep…" said the man, he hypnotized the boys into sleeping… however… he fell asleep too…

"That was strange…" said Sasuke.

"No kidding…" said Zoro.

Meanwhile at the shore… Usopp and Kiba were just sitting there in silence well almost, Kiba was playing with Akamaru with one of those ropes… then Usopp finally said something.

"Thanks…" he said.

"It was no problem… after all I couldn't have you make a fool of yourself… after all you do like her…" said Kiba with a sneaky smile.

Usopp blushed, "I don't… not in that way any ways…" said Usopp.

"Sure deny it…" said Kiba.

"Hey!" yelled a person who surprised them from hanging upside-down from a tree that was near them... it was Luffy.

"Don't do that!" yelled Kiba.

"Don't do what?" asked another Luffy appeared behind them.

Both Kiba and Usopp jumped up a few feet. The Luffy that appeared behind them cracked up "That was so funny!", there was a puff of smoke and it was Naruto transformed into Luffy, the real Luffy jumped down from the three.

"How did you do that?" asked Kiba.

"It's a secret!" said Naruto.

"Unless they join the crew… the odds a high that they will…" said Kyubi.

Naruto rolled his eyes as he sat down with Luffy.

"So are you ever going back…" said Luffy.

"Maybe… if the butler begs me…" said Usopp.

"It translates to "Yes… because I like her…"" said Kiba.

"Hey!" said Usopp.

"It shouldn't matter what that butler said… you dad's a good man…" said Naruto.

"We know…" said Kiba.

"I don't like the butler…" said Luffy.

"Me neither… there's something I don't trust about him…" said Kyubi.

"What do you mean?" asked Naruto.

"Like there's something off about him…" said Kyubi.

Naruto nodded and said, "Do you think we should trust him…" he said.

"What do you mean?" asked Kiba.

"Like how he's with some weirdo down there…" said Luffy.

"Yeah…" said Usopp.

"Wait… what?" said Kiba.

It was indeed true he was with the weirdo hypnotist. They listened on their conversation… as it turned out Klahadore wasn't even his real name… he was really captain Kuro an infamous pirate captain known for his intricate plans, it was said he was executed three years before hand… and he was planning in killing Kaya with an intricate plan: he faked his death, spent the last three years as her butler earning the trust of those around her… then he was planning to use the weird hypnotist who's name was Jango to hypnotize her into a making a will leaving everything to him… after his crew, the Black Cat pirates attack the town at sunrise. Ironically, a year before Kaya's parents died… Klahadore… er… Kuro had nothing to do with their deaths... or so he said…

"What are they talking about again…" said Luffy.

"They're going to kill Kaya…" said Usopp.

"That's bad…" said Naruto.

"Oh…" said Luffy.

Luffy stood up and yelled "You aren't going to kill Kaya!" he yelled.

Both looked up.

"Luffy…" said Usopp.

"Get down…" said Kiba.

"So Usopp and Kiba… here anything interesting?" asked Kuro.

""Nope not a thing!" said Usopp.

"That's right…" said Kiba panicking a bit.

"We heard everything…" said Naruto also getting.

"Kit…" yelled Kyubi, "Wait that guy…"

"Jango I leave it you…" said Kuro.

"Right…" said Jango he took out his hypnotist ring, "When I say one, two Jango you'll fall sleep."

"It's a weapon duck!" yelled Usopp tackling Kiba and holding him down.

"Get off me!" yelled Kiba.

"Kit close you eyes I'll explain…" said Kyubi.

"Why?" aided Naruto.

"Just do it!" yelled Kyubi.

Naruto sighed, "Okay that weirdo hate a very rare mushroom known as a Hypno Mushroom… it can give people the people the power to hypnotize people if you eat the cap."

"One…" said Jango

"How can you tell?" asked Naruto.

"You that were beard thing… that's no beard… that the stem… the reason why it's so rare is that it needs to grow on a human who hasn't bathed in a really long time…" said Kyubi.

"Two…" said Jango.

"Wait a second… are you saying that weirdo ate a mushroom that was growing on him… that's sick!" yelled Naruto mentally.

"I know…" said Kyubi who sounded like he was holding off gagging.

"Jango!" said Jango.

"You can open you eyes now…" said Kyubi.

He opened his eyes to find Luffy was slumping over asleep and then fell off the cliff.

"Maybe you should have warned your brother too…" said Kyubi.

"Yeah…" said Naruto.

Usopp and got off of his younger brother they looked over the side along with Naruto.

"No one could survive a fall like that…" said Kuro.

"Should I take care of those three…" said Jango who just woke up after hypnotizing himself as well...

"No, not those two… no one will believe them…" said Kuro pointing to Usopp and Kiba.

"What about Blondie." said Jango.

"Oh yeah about Blondie?" said Naruto jumping down the cliff.

"Just take care of him… I'll meet up with you else where…" said Kuro walking away.

"Right…" said Jango.

Usopp ran away, Kiba and Akamaru tired to stop him but…

"No one will believe him…" said Kiba with a sigh.

"I know…" said Naruto who was hiding behind a tree.

Kiba smirked… "Who thought I would see a shadow clone in action like this…" said Kiba looking over the cliff. Jango was fighting what turned out be a Shadow Clone, Jango took a few hit but finally managed to damage the shadow clone enough, it disappeared in puff of smoke…

"What… what just happened!" he yelled.

"We should tell my crew at least…" said Naruto.

"About your brother's death…" said Kiba.

"No… my brother's fine… about the butler's plan…" said Naruto.

The two ran to find the crew… they met up mid way.

"What happened?" asked Nami.

"You know something happened?" asked Naruto.

"We saw Usopp run by like his pants were on fire…" said Zoro.

"Actually…" said Konohamaru.

(Flashback)

Usopp's pants were on fire… he ran around crying like a little baby.

"Stop drop and roll captain!" yelled Onion.

"You're a liar, lair pants on fire…" laughed Kiba.

"You not helping!" yelled Usopp.

(End of flashback)

"Did… that really happen?" asked Sakura as they were walking to the beach.

"Sadly yes…" said Kiba.

They got to the bottom of the cliff, to find Luffy…

"Is he…" said Sakura.

"Asleep… yes…" said Naruto.

Sakura knock him on the head, sending him crashing to the ground thanks to her strength.

"How can you say such things…" said Sakura

Just then she heard snores from the rubber man.

"Luffy…" said a very annoyed Sakura.

"That little…" said Inner Sakura.

Luffy began to wake up.

"Mor…" said Luffy but before he could even finish what he was going to say Sakura pounded him to the ground.

"Hey Luffy why were you sleep?" asked Zoro.

"I don't know… and I was on the top of the cliff when I fell asleep…" said Luffy.

"Some weird guy hypnotized him… according to Kyubi he ate a rare mushroom that gave him the ability to do that…" said Naruto getting up after Sakura's punch.

"Can you please tell what's exactly going on?" asked Sasuke.

"I'll tell you everything…" said Kiba.

Kiba told the others what they heard and why Usopp ran away.

"So he went to warn the village…" said Nami.

"Don't worry pirates are generally stupid so I'm sure the town will be safe if they head for the hills…" said Sakura.

"Yeah…" said Kiba, "I doubt anyone will believe him though…"

"If pirates are going attack we should get our stuff…" said Carrot.

"Oh yeah since the pirates won't steal them…" said Konohamaru.

"Let's go…" said Onion.

All 4 members Usopp's pirates left.

"I just realized something…" said Luffy.

"What?" asked Naruto.

"If the butcher closes where would we get meat?" asked Luffy.

Naruto just laughed while the others stared at him.

Later, the crew, Usopp's crew and Kiba were all together in town, looking around when they came across Usopp.

"Captain!" called all 4 boys.

"Is it true about the butler…" said Carrot.

Usopp hid arm behind him, he ad tried to warn the town and failed, he tired to warn Kaya but her other butler Merry shot him in the arm… he sighed and began ot laugh so he did what he did best... lie.

"It was all a lie!" said Usopp, "I wanted to get back at the butler so I made up story that he was pirate…"

The 4 boys seemed a little angry with Usopp.

"Oh…" said Carrot.

"That was a mean thing to do… even if the butler did say all those things…" said Carrot.

"Let's go home…" said Pepper.

"Yeah…" said Konohamaru.

As they were walking back, something clicked in their heads.

"Wait a second… why would Kiba be in on this… usually he doesn't go along with your lies!" said Konohamaru.

"Especially after what Akamaru did to the butler… he wouldn't have gone along with it…" said Pepper.

Usopp sweatdroped, "Fine that was a lie… but um… the whole part of the pirates attacking the village we made that up…" said Usopp.

"Liar…" said the 4 boys.

Usopp turned away from them, "I don't' want you involved in this!" he yelled while running away.

"He's lying to protect you… he doesn't want you guys to get hurt…" said Kiba, who began to fallow his brother fallowed closely by Akamaru.

"Wait!" yelled Pepper.

Sakura managed to pick up all 4 of them but their shirts.

"Please… it's best you don't fallow him… he's right if you get hurt… what will your families do…" said Sakura.

"She right… just stay out the way and let him handle it…" said Sasuke.

The 4 boys nodded, Sakura put them down and boys ran home.

"Kit… they will get involved... I don't know how but they will…" said Kyubi.

"I know…" said Naruto.

"We should go talk to the two…" said Luffy.

The other nodded, later they were at the beach with the two brothers, Sakura began to bandage Usopp's arm.

"Thanks Sakura…" said Usopp.

"I can't believe they didn't buy your lie… it wasn't a crack pot plan as usual…" said Kiba.

"Hey…" said Usopp.

"At least they said they would stay out our way…" said Naruto.

"Our… you mean your helping us?" asked Kiba.

"Of course…" said Luffy.

"Well you are outnumbered…" said Sakura.

"You need all the help you can get…" said Luffy.

"And you look pretty scared…" sad Zoro.

"I'm not scared…" said Usopp.

"Oh really?" said Sasuke he pointed to his legs.

Usopp's legs were shaking.

"I'm cold okay…" said Usopp.

"Usopp's always been scaredy cat… me on the other hand I'm not at all…" said Kiba who looked almost excited to fight.

Usopp sighed, "This better not be out of pity…" said Usopp.

"Don't worry it's not…" said Luffy.

"Okay I know Naruto can do that weird transformation thing and I saw one of his shadow clones, so can you do…" said Kiba.

"I can stretch…" said Luffy.

"I'm a swordsman" said Zoro.

"I'm a thief…" said Nami.

"I have my strength…" said Sakura.

"I'm a swords man too but I'm good with martial arts as well…" said Sasuke.

"Well I run and hide…" said Usopp.

"You have to fight!" yelled everyone else.

"Well I do have the perfect plan to get rid of them…" said Usopp.

They implemented their plan… which was pour oil over a slope.

"This hill is the only way to get into the village… the plan while their slipping and sliding we attack…" said Usopp.

"Wow what a slick plan…" said Luffy making a very bad pun.

"When it comes to great plans I'm the man…" said Usopp.

"But most of them are crack pot… including this one" said Kiba.

"What do you mean crack pot?" said Usopp.

"They are… what if we fall down the hill… ever think of that?" said Kiba.

Akamaru barked in agreement while Usopp sighed.

Everyone laughed at their display. After a few minutes they waited impatiently for sunrise.

"I'm going take a nap…" said Naruto.

Sakura hit him in the head.

"Don't!" said Sakura.

"I'm going to take a "nap"!" yelled Naruto, "It's code something important that I'll explain to you later…"

Then he collapsed, "Don't worry it will be short, I'm sure…" said Luffy.

Inside of Naruto's head…

"To actually speak to me face to face… my, what a surprise…" said Kyubi.

"I've been thinking about what you said… about taking over my body… I distinctly remember you when we first well "met" you can't take over my body ever…" said Naruto.

"I'll explain… I had little knowledge then… from what I heard I and what I haven't experienced I know there are times I can take over our body…" said Kyubi with a sigh.

"What do you mean?" asked Naruto.

"Remember when that time with the whirlpool… I remember at some point I saw ways to enter take control… which means if you are under water… the seal weakens… I also realized it's the same with Sea Stone… which as I said won't explain 'till later… there might also be other strange ways that I can take over… but I'm unsure about it… understand…" said Kyubi.

"I guess it makes sense… after all they say we can't use our power when submerged…" said Naruto.

"You should get up now… if that's all you wanted talk about in private then you should leave... you have to fight those pirates…" said Kyubi.

"Right…" said Naruto.

Naruto woke up in the real world.

"Wow you were right…" said Sakura to Luffy, as it had only been a few minutes.

"The sun rising.." said Sasuke.

The sun began to rise… and the battle would begin soon…

Next Time: As fate would have it... their on the wrong slope! Now Usopp, Kiba, Akamaru and Nami are the only one who can fight them off... why? Naruto and Luffy are extremely lost and Zoro, Sasuke and Sakura slipping in the oil thanks to Nami... and when they are reunited something unexpected happens to Naruto as well as Kyubi... what is it? What will happen?
