In the Naruto Manga: Gobi is a really tall guy from (I forget which country), and he gets sealed by the Akatsuki.

In this fanfiction: Gobi is a woman (let's say, 5'4") who is from the Konoha Village, and hasn't been captured or sealed by the Akatsuki.

Now, this story takes place in an Alternate Universe. Two if you really want to keep track. It takes place nearly three years before Part II in Naruto, and two and a half years before the Luffy leaves his home Island to become a pirate.

In this universe, a child named Gobi was born within the Konoha Village. She was conceived from the blood of Hashirama Senju, and an unnamed woman from the now defunct Whirlpool country. It was decided that it would be best to create her from the Blood of the Shodaime, to control the beast sealed within her. It was an excellent plan, for Gobi could not only control five elements, she also inherited the Mokuton ability (Wood Release) from the blood she had received.

During 30 years of conflict and war, Gobi had grown and served her village and the Fire country well. But during an era of peace, her violence and menace seemed, no longer needed. During a decade of peace, only she seemed to draw out danger for her village. A seemingly new threat, known only as the, "Akatsuki", seemed to target her and some of the other Hosts for the tailed beasts. Because of her presence within the village, she caused a danger.

It was kept quiet for years, the looming threat of the, Akatsuki, their S-ranked missing nin members. But Gobi could no longer stay within the village and hope for her own personal peace. She had to leave. The top officials had prepared a false story for her disappearance. She would be, "kidnapped" by unknown abductors, and she was to never appear within the village again.

Kinjutsu (Kinjutsu = forbidden badass jutsu. This particular one required human souls for sacrifice.) was used to send her away. Far from the reaches of the Akatsuki, or anyone else who would wish to do her harm. Or so it seemed. With the, World Breaking jutsu being cast, Gobi would be sent to another realm.

And Gobi was sent, to the Open Sea.

Gobi and the Open Sea – Chapter 1

A woman was standing in the middle of a vast cerulean ocean, staring upward at open sky. Her eyes were a sapphire blue, that looked just like jewels. Her hair was long and white, and swayed in the wind like the strands of silk from a spiderweb. The skin on her face and exposed arms were rich in a caramel color and it looked as smooth as marble. But who was that woman who was standing on the surface of ocean waters?

"It freaking smells like salt everywhere!" I narrowed my eyes at the waters beneath my feet.

There were dozens of things swimming under me. Some of them felt large, like massive beings the size buildings were shifting and moving silently under my feet. My eyes could see far deep past the surface of the waters. Nearly miles, but it still wasn't far enough to see the bottom of this ocean. I took a deep breath and tried to catch the scent of dirt. Deeper and deeper, no scents outside the salt of the ocean entered my nose.

North? It seemed like a good direction. North is a reliable direction. If I can trust that the direction I'm running in is really north. After hours of running with no scent of land or human life in sight, I was tempted to go into 'full form'. The distance I could travel would be a lot greater if I went into Demon form. It would surely frighten anyone who sees me, but there's no one around for hundreds of miles. My sense of smell is greater, my eye sight, hearing, everything is better. But my weak temper is dismal.

I stood still and exhaled many times. I was getting ready to become the beast. I felt my skin breaking apart the burning chaos of every cell in my body. It only lasted for a mere ten seconds, but that felt like hours of pain and torment. Rage boiled up inside of me as I craved for meat and blood. My throat only expelled fire and a angry roar.

The shock wave from my initial transformation bursted through the sky and resonated through the ocean. 360 degrees of violent waves expanded for miles from their start point. My transformation into the five tailed beast was complete. My fur a snowy white, my eyes still maintained a beautiful blue color, my steps were gentle and silent. When I awakened my awareness, I could feel the sensation of the ocean that covered a quarter of this world. The islands, the ships that sailed, the beasts below; all at once I could see all of them.

The nearest island was in the west. It's population... 1019 people. The distance was less that eighty miles away. Not very far at all. I sprinted towards the island for a few minutes. In that time, I covered at least forty miles. In another ten miles, I should cancel out the transformation. There was a boat that was on it's way the harbor of the island. They might be able to see me even from this distance. I stopped the natural chakra flow to my legs and let myself sink between the surface of the waters. I can, undo my transformation here.

I sunk deeper and deeper into the black ocean. There were many strange fish that swam around. They all seemed to scurry away at the sight of me. Good, I am something frightening. I glowed in the darkness, my shell lighting up and floating away like bright bubbles. When it was completely gone, I was back in my human form. Injured nearly every place in my body. It always hurt to transform. But thanks to the beast's high speed healing abilities, the pain was only momentary.

I waited for all of my skin to grow back before continuing my journey towards the island. I didn't bother with resurfacing. With a natural affinity to water, I'm able to breath a bit of it. It's not on the level of a fish, but it's been useful enough. I was practically flying through the ocean, propelling myself through the currents with my chakra. I was close to the island now, but something stopped me. It caused me to sink deeper into the waters.

I could sense a few people staring at the ocean. I could feel their stares. Even if they couldn't outright see me, there is a chance that they can sense me. Shinobis are creatures of stealth and invisibility. Even if I could kill everyone on this island along with all of those boat people, it would be troublesome to kill innocent people just for looking at me. Even though I've killed people for much less. I slowly made my way for another side of the island.

Suppressing my presence, I jumped from the water's edge to the tree line in one leap. I had captured some large fish and carried with wooden skewers I grew out of my skin. I bounced from thin branch to thin branch. This island was quite tropical. The forest was a dense jungle instead of the forests I was used to with the towering trees of Konoha.

I found a nice, unpopulated spot. Inaccessible by the average shinobi. There was no scent of other humans within a few miles. And with the thick canopy up above me, I would not have to worry about smoke giving away my position. I used my affinity for the wind to dissipate the smoke regardless. I can never be too careful. I also need will need to destroy this chair and table I made for myself. Even if no one will come out here.

Konoha, I wonder if everyone is alright. They're probably not worried about me. Eating alone in some strange place. How miserable for their war hero to be homeless like this. Though with my power, I could have any home I wanted. To have any friends or underlings that I could wish for. But no one could possibly know the monster I am. But I can't let myself be among humans. I have no more country to show my loyalty towards.

Sandaime, I still remember our conversation two weeks ago. About the chunin exams, Orochimaru and his threats, why didn't you let me into the stadium? You said that it was because the feudal lords from the other countries claimed they wouldn't be comfortable with my presence. But if I was there, you might not have died. I couldn't make it to the stadium either. The Sand and Sound had invaded, and I was too busy fighting them. And without a Hokage to support my being in the village, I was a loose element that was sent away. Sarutobi-san, I already hate this place.

Large ugly bugs fluttered several yards away. Along with mosquitoes and other insects. Not even ants dared to come to close to me and my meal. I grew a wooden cup that I will have to destroy out of the table, and casted a Suiton spell for something to drink. (Suiton = Water release element.) My left ear twitched and my nose burned with the scent of humans. A large group of people were three quarters of a mile away from my positon.

I crushed my furniture and the bones of my meal and let them become buried under the earth. I jumped high towards the canopy and blended my color into the shadows. Silently, using my wind affinity to hide what little sounds I did make, I came in closer to the group of humans. With my eye sight, I could see that it was a group of roughly one hundred men. How boring. They all looked already intoxicated and they were cutting through brush and setting up bottles of alcohol and bringing out food. The assembled makeshift fire pits and started to cook large chunks of red meat. My mouth watered.

The smell of the meat was overpowering. It wouldn't be too bad to kill those hundred men. Most of them were weaker that me. There were some that would give me trouble for a few minutes, but they would be killed too. Which one is there leader? The man with a large black sword on his back? He seems to be chatting with a one armed red haired man. They don't look like they'd be much trouble. I creped in closer.

Both the red headed man and the man with the large sword seemed to sense something from the forest. I'm still quite far away. Could they be the ones that noticed me earlier? They must be. Perhaps I should tone down my murderous intent. I saw the man with the large sword place his right hand on the long handle. Doe he see me? Impossible. I'm still around a half mile away and my body is undetectable.

"Henge." I said with a near silent voice.

I let myself transform into a local bird that was native to this island. He drew his sword from his back and made a powerful strike in my general direction! The powerful attack cleared a large pathway into the jungle! The cut in the ground was a few yards deep, and it extended beyond where I was located. So powerful! And yet it looked like it didn't take much of his energy to perform. Who is this man?

I took flight with the other birds. Cawing like they were. I flew around and followed them to another nesting sight. That naughty man, making an S-ranked Konoha Jounin like myself flee with animals. I could use Mokuton to grow some sharp wood that could impale his heart in a second. I could go charging in with the katana on my back and cut him. Or even cast a spell with genjutsu to make him fall asleep or lock his movement.

"There's a lot I can do. That man is nothing compared to me." I said with a bird like voice.

I flew down to the ground level, and canceled the henge spell. I stuck a root into the ground and connected with the other tree roots. I placed my sense of hearing into a a tree that was nearby the group. I could hear the voices of men speaking.

'Oi oi! Hawkeyes, don't you think that was too much punishment for a flock of birds?'

'That wasn't a bird out there. There was something else, something intelligent and murderous that was watching.'

'An intelligent and murderous bird?'

'Even though those things exist, that wasn't what I sensed. It was the same as the strange presence I sensed from the sea.'

'What was it then?'

'It felt human and animal at the same time. It felt curious, hateful, murderous and somehow, gentle.'

'But still to attack the jungle like that, Hawkeyes, it's not normal for you to be that cautious.'

'For you not to sense it, Shanks, that's isn't normal for you.'

'I'll admit to feeling something, but I'd rather let whatever it is to come as close as it can. Instead of scaring whatever it was off.'

'Yeah, the boss is right. We should have let it come near so we could catch it! It was probably some ugly gorilla man. We could have sold it and made a fortune off one of those! Hahahaha!"

The rest of the men joined in roaring laughter.

My rage flared up. Ugly gorilla man? What the hell does that weakling know?

'Does someone feel the ground shaking?'

I growled angrily, too low for normal humans to hear. But it rumbled the ground of the island, causing a small earthquake. I stopped growling to let the earth settle itself.

'Oi, I think whatever it was heard your, 'ugly gorilla' comment and it got mad.'

'Can it really hear us? OI BASTARD GORILLA! COME OUT!'

I'm not going to freaking fall for that! I gritted my teeth and leaned against a tree trunk.

'UGLY STINKY GORILLA!'

Not falling for that either! Though this tree isn't where in used to be. I uprooted it with my own hand? Damn! This is noticeable!

'I see a tree shaking! It must be the gorilla!'

I lifted up the large tree with a tight grip, and threw it high into the air in the direction of the group of idiots! Fall and crush those bastards!

'Tree incoming?!'

I could hear the panicked footsteps gather to run away from it. That's right, run you damn fools! My eyesight focused on the group, and once again the man with the large sword placed his hand on the handle. Hawkeyes... I made a mad dash towards the sea. It would be dangerous for me to get struck by his attack, and it would be troublesome to me if I blocked it and revealed myself. I've got no choice but to run.

In spite of me clearing the area from where I've thrown the tree, a direct attack was chasing me at great speed! This attack felt more forceful and more powerful than the last. He must have figured I would try to escape to the sea!

"Damn him..!" I snarled while drawing my blade.
