Dōkutsugakure no Sato

Hey, guys! Listen, this is a collab between Spirit and myself, combining two of our ideas together. He sort of suggested it and after talking with him on it, I found myself liking the idea. So the general concept has been something of a pet project of mine for a while, and Spirit suggested combining it with his Resident Evil/Naruto crossover. And after some discussion, we agreed on just a regular Naruto fic with references to Resident Evil and his fic in general (OCs that Spirit created).

Hey, this is Spirit. I was planning to rewrite my Resident Evil/Naruto crossover, with the OCs in them, before I thought about combining Dragon's idea with my own. And also there are going to be flashbacks for the OCs and Naruto.

This story will be a 'Naruto gets banished' fic, but with a twist! What is this twist? Well, why don't you read and find out!

Chapter 1-Banishment and Escape plan


"Naruto Uzumaki, it is by this council that you are being charged with treason, attempted murder of a fellow shinobi, disobeying the Hokage's orders, and endangering your fellow shinobi," a wrinkly old man wrapped in bandages said in an emotionless tone. "It is by the will of this council and the Emperor himself that we carry out your sentence."

Naruto Uzumaki, a thirteen year old young man with spiky blond hair and blue eyes wearing an orange jumpsuit, stared at the assembled group in shock. He had just healed up from the mission to bring back his friend and brother in all but blood, Sasuke Uchiha, and now he was being charged with treason?! For using excessive force while the damn Uchiha slammed a lightning enchased fist through his heart?!

"How long have you old as shit mummies had this damn disastrous idea?!" a buxom blonde garbed in green clothing demanded. "Do you know just how badly Konoha will be affected by this?! Naruto's the ONLY reason we have all the connections we have!"

"Believe me when I say that I'm as thrilled as you are, Hokage-sama," the man in bandages, Danzō, said. "Regardless, I find myself forced into this situation and deliver the verdict as it was dictated. If left to me, I'd take Uzumaki-san on and train. And yes. I'm well aware of all what Uzumaki-san has done for Konoha. That doesn't change the fact, however, the civilians of this village have worked against him despite this."

The Hokage, Tsunade, couldn't deny that. Despite being a deplorable human being, Danzō always did what he believed was best for Konoha, as much as she hated to admit it.

"As if this…child ever contributed to Konoha!" a fat civilian scoffed, though it was obvious to everyone he wanted to say something else.

"Oh, well, I can cite three different alliances that Naruto has helped us create and/or strengthen," a bored looking man with black hair tied up in a pineapple shape yawned. "The first is Nami. We have a trade agreement with them because of the kid. The son of the Yondaime Kazekage is good friends with Naruto after he kicked his ass. And, most recently, our alliance with Yuki, which will be changing its name to Spring soon."

"That was all Uchiha-sama's doing!" another civilian snapped.

"I have mission reports that say otherwise!" Tsunade growled.

"It doesn't matter, regardless," Danzō sighed. "The civilians have sowed their crop. I'm afraid that we can only wait from them to reap it as well."

Naruto was watching this all in shocked silence. He couldn't believe after all he'd done for this village…all he'd done to be seen…Had it…Had it all been for nothing?

"Quit stalling and read the verdict!" a pink haired howler monkey howled at Danzō. Sakura's mother, Naruto could tell. He winced. After failing to bring back Sasuke, Sakura hit him hard and told him he was useless and pathetic and that she never wanted to see him again. It hurt worse than when Sasuke tried to kill him.

Danzō sighed in irritation. "Very well," he said with very carefully veiled anger. "Naruto Uzumaki, we, the councils of Konoha, sentence you to-"

"STOP THE TRIAL!" several voices shouted out loudly as the doors of the council hall were shoved open. Naruto's eyes widened as he saw nine very familiar faces running into the room.

"Who dares disrupt this trial?!" a councilman screeched.

"Ino?" a blond shinobi next to the pineapple haired man, called out.

"Chōji?!" a big boned man with red hair shouted.

"Kiba! What is the meaning of this?!" a feral looking woman with wild brown hair wearing a fur lined overcoat demanded in concern.

"Hinata. Neji," a stern looking man with long dark hair and blank looking eyes said. "Lee-san, Higarashi-san. To what do we owe your interruption for?"

"Shino, why are you here?" a tall man wearing a thick grey coat with a high collar and sunglasses asked monotonously.

"Shikamaru," Shikaku, the pineapple haired man, groaned, bored.

Indeed. Nine of the Rookie genin stood in the center of the council room, all wearing grim, determined looks as they walked towards Naruto. The shinobi council was in shock while the civilian council was fuming in anger.

"How did these gakis get in here?!" one council member shouted. "ANBU! Throw them out!"

"ANBU only listen to ME, Councilman!" Tsunade growled. "And they certainly will not!"

"This is a private hearing!" the pink haired woman hissed.

"This 'TRIAL' is farce and you know it!"

"Guys," Naruto whispered in shock. "What are you…?"

"We heard you were on trial for failing to retrieve Sasuke, Naruto," Shino, a tall teen of Naruto's age, wearing a large overcoat with a high collar and sunglasses, said tonelessly. "We were told that you may be executed."

"Like hell we're gonna let that happen!" a wild looking teen, Kiba, shouted. He wore a grey jacket with a fur lined collar and had spiky brown hair and two red marks on his face. His partner, a white ninken named Akamaru, yipped in agreement. "How are you getting executed when you just did your job?!"

"This whole situation is nothing but troublesome," Shikamaru, a teen who looked remarkably like his father except for he had no scars on his face like his old man. "But we've come to your defense."

"Yeah!" Ino shouted. She was blonde haired teen wearing a purple top and shorts and wrappings around her legs. "You may be a pain, but you don't deserve to die!"

"Guys…" Naruto said, amazement coloring his voice. He looked around and asked, "I-Is Sakura-chan with you?"

Hinata, a lavender haired beauty with the same white eyes as her father Hiashi and wearing a heavy jacket and blue pants, shook her head sadly. "S-She said she d-didn't want anything to d-do with you, N-Naruto-kun," she said.

"Sakura-chan has proven to be most un-youthful!" Lee, a tall teen wearing a hideous green jumpsuit and orange leg warmers with bowl-cut black hair, shouted loudly. "I find myself disheartened that I once saw beauty in her."

"She wasn't much of a kunoichi anyways," Tenten, a beautiful teen with brown hair tied up in two buns and wearing a light pink blouse told her teammate. "Anyone willing to throw their teammate to the dogs is nothing but trash!"

"Indeed," Neji, a young man who looked like his uncle Hiashi and wearing a white shirt and brown pants and had bandages on his right arm and left leg, agreed with a nod. "Don't worry about her Naruto. Just know that we're here to help you."

Their concern with him was touching to the blond haired youth. But before he could express his gratitude, Mebuki, Sakura's mother, screeched out, "Why are you kids protecting this demon?!"

"Mebuki! If you don't shut your mouth, I'll personally rip your damn head right off your shoulders!" Tsunade shouted.

"Well, I'm afraid you can't anymore, Hokage-sama," she said vehemently, stressing Tsunade's title. "Because since the brat's sentence has pretty much been decided already, the Sandaime's law is no longer lording over us!"

"Call Naruto a demon one more time lady, I'll be introducing you to my claws!" Kiba growled as Akamaru growled menacingly at the woman.

"Kiba!" Tsume, his mother, scolded.

"I'll call the demon whatever I want!" the pink haired woman shouted back. "After all, that's what he is!"

The veins around Neji's eyes bulged out visibly as his eyesight sharpened thanks to his clans Kekkei Genkai, the Byakugan. "Hmm…I don't see a tumor in her head," he mused. "So, she must just be crazy."

The Rookies snickered at the serious sounding diagnosis from Neji. Even Tsunade cracked a smile. Naruto looked like he was about to laugh out loud, and even Danzō found himself nodding at the statement.

Mebuki was furious. "You wouldn't be saying that if you knew the truth! A truth the Sandaime kept from you since the demon was born!" she screeched. Naruto paled at what she was implying.

This silenced the Rookies. "What are you talking about?" Tenten asked.

Mebuki sneered. "I find it odd that loyal Konoha shinobi like yourselves are defending the Kyūbi as adamantly as you are," she said with a nasty smile.

Naruto paled further; the shinobi council scowled in contempt at the woman. Tsunade growled warningly at the woman but restrained herself, knowing it would do no good.

Shikamaru's scowl turned into a furious glare as the other Rookies lost it. "HOW DARE YOU COMPARE NARUTO-KUN TO THE KYŪBI, YOU UN-YOUTHFUL HAG!" Lee shouted at the top of his lungs in pure anger.

"Naruto-kun is no demon!" Hinata shouted without her stutter, shocking the civilians. "If anyone here is a demon, it's YOU! You filthy troll!" Hiashi had to admit he felt some amount of pride at his daughter snapping at the woman like that. Perhaps she did have the makings of a true Hyena…

The other Rookies were shouting their agreements with Hinata's statement. Naruto's heart soared until Mebuki screeched again, "ENOUGH!" They shut up and glared at the woman. "You nine have no idea what you are talking about! This child was born the devil incarnate!"

"And you allow yourself to fall to your hatreds to believe such tripe," Danzō told the woman, making her turn to him and glared.

"What are you talking about?!" Chōji demanded.

"On the day of Naruto's birth," Danzō said with a sigh, figuring it best to clear the air, "the Yondaime didn't kill the Kyūbi. You cannot kill a mass of chakra. He instead sealed it into a newborn child. Naruto was that child."

The Rookies were silent, their shock easily seen on their faces. Team 8 looked like someone had just said their clans were all massacred while Teams 10 and 9 were all staring slack jawed at Danzō. Naruto ducked his head. This was where they'd abandon him. Where they'd call him a demon and…

His dark thoughts were cut off by Hinata of all people. "…You…You…You…" she struggled to stay calm, but it didn't work. AT all. "You IGNORANT SACKS OF SHIT!" she screamed, freaking everyone who knew her. "YOU HONESTLY THINK NARUTO IS THE KYUUBI BECAUSE IT'S SEALED INSIDE OF HIM?! YOU HEARTLESS BASTARDS!"

"How can you people be so blind?!" Tenten shouted angrily. "There's a difference between the kunai and he scroll it's sealed in, idiots!"

Neji's Byakugan flared back to life with a vengeance. "So that's why Naruto never believed in fate!" he hissed. "He's had a cursed seal like mine, only his was more powerful!"

"YOU UN-YOUTHFUL ASSHOLES!" Lee shouted at the top of his lungs. "I SHALL KICK YOUR UNGRATEFUL ASSES AROUND KONOHA 500 TIMES FOR THIS!"

"Naruto's not the Kyūbi!" Chōji shouted in anger. "If he was, then why is Konoha still standing?!"

"S-So that's why…" Ino was shaking as she mulled over the information in her head. However, she was quite angry with Sakura before coming to the Hokage tower, so she decided to focus on that and screamed, "You're stupid Haruno-san! You hate Naruto because of something he had no control over?! I honestly thought you were smart! Now I can see I was wrong!"

"Honestly, I don't know what's more troublesome," Shikamaru said in a hard tone. "You civilians and how you think Naruto's a demon which logically he cannot be, or how you can't see past your own prejudices to even do the required research to discover he could never be the Kyūbi!"

"If you hate Naruto so much, then why do you still respect my clan?" Shino asked calmly, but everyone could hear the clear anger in his tone. "Naruto is, in a sense, the same as my clan. We both hold entities inside of our bodies; mine being bugs, and Naruto's being a fox made of chakra. Your irrational way of thinking is, quite frankly, is pissing me off."

"IF YOU THINK WE'RE GONNA ABANDON NARUTO BECAUSE YOU CAN'T SEE PAST HIS PAST, THEN YOU'RE DEAD WRONG, YOU PINK HAIRED BITCH!" Kiba shouted in absolute, carnal fury at Mebuki's attempt at alienating his friend…his…pack member…in such a way. "ALL FOR ONE, AND ONE FOR ALL! HARM ONE OF US, YOU DEAL WITH ALL OF US!" The Rookies began to shout their agreements, chakra flaring dangerously as the genin moved behind Naruto in a silent show of support for the orange clad shinobi.

Naruto's eyes shined with unshed tears at his friends' support of him. He shook his head of them as he adopted a more serious mask and stood proudly in front of them. The now Rookie 10 stood before the councils defiantly.

The Shinobi councilmembers felt some sense of pride at their kids standing up for one of their own, and Tsunade smiled softly at the display. Mebuki, however, stared in shock. They now knew just why they were doing this: to be rid of the demon. WHY were they still defending him?! It boggled her mind. Why would anyone with sense stand up for this demon? Had he poisoned their minds?

"JUST TRY AND EXECUTE NARUTO, ASSHOLES!" Kiba shouted again. "BECAUSE IF YOU DO, THE REST OF US ARE LEAVING KONOHA FOR GOOD!"

THAT had every head, even Naruto's, turn to the Rookies in shock. The Rookies themselves looked dead serious, not one disagreeing with Kiba's brash statement. Their parents stood up at this.

"KIBA!" his mother exclaimed in shock.

"Chōji, why?!" the big boned shinobi's dad shouted out.

"J-You nine are serious, aren't you?" Tsunade asked in shock.

"Dead. Serious," Neji said firmly.

Danzō stared at the teens apathetically. "You nine truly embody Hiruzen's interpretation of the Will of Fire," he said. "Uzumaki-san is incredibly lucky to have friends like you." The nine didn't respond. "I'm afraid, however, his sentence might be worse than execution." The nine looked at him in confusion. "Naruto Uzumaki is banished from Hi no Kuni, and never to return for the duration of his life." The gasps from the Rookies had the shinobi council wincing, and Naruto himself paled. "His chakra is to be sealed off and will need to be out of Hi no Kuni's borders in three weeks…"

"LIKE HELL'S THAT'S GONNA HAPPEN!" Kiba shouted, and suddenly, the room was filled with smoke. Naruto and the councilmembers began coughing excessively. Tsunade was also not unaffected. Suddenly, Naruto felt himself being pulled towards the door. "Wha-?!"

The doors slammed open and the teens ran out, Naruto in tow. "LET'S HAUL ASS OTTA HERE!" Kiba howled.

"S-Stop them!" Mebuki shouted. "B-Bring that demon back for its punishment!"

"ANBU! Stop them from leaving the village!" Tsunade ordered. "If they leave, who knows what will happen to them!"

"H-Hey! What's going on, you guys?! What are you doing?!" Naruto demanded as he was dragged along by Lee.

"We weren't about to let you get killed, Naruto," Shikamaru told the blond shinobi. "So we devised a plan to get out of Konoha with you in tow."

"Turns out it was a better plan than we thought it was!" Ino supplied. "Y-You know…with the Kyūbi problem…"

"Please don't bring up that topic at the moment!" Lee shouted. "I wish to get out of Konoha as quickly as possible! Thinking about how much I want to hit every civilian in Konoha will only make me want to stay!"

"Lee's right!" Shino agreed. "Let's get out of Konoha and to a safe place to camp, THEN we can worry about that subject!"

"B-but, Konoha-!"

"Doesn't deserve your loyalty, Naruto!" Neji snarled, making Naruto turn to look at him. "Look at what Konoha has done for you! They spat on the Yondaime's sacrifice! On yours! Tried to banish you and take away your chakra! They are unworthy of the kind of loyalty you have!"

'Guys…' Naruto felt elated that he had friends that would go to such extremes for him. He shook his head and smiled widely. Not a fake one like he was use to wearing. But a true, wide happy smile that hurt his cheeks. "Then what are we waiting for?! Let's get out of here!"

"YYAAAAAAHHHOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" Kiba hollered. "THAT'S WHAT I WANTED TO HERE! AKAMARU! LET'S GO!" The dog yipped as Kiba threw him a red food pill. Akamaru ate it, and his fur turned red as he transformed into a replica of Kiba.

"MAN BEAST! ULTIMATE TAIJUTSU! FANG OVER FANG!" the Kibas shouted and began to spin at a rapid pace, becoming two twin tornadoes of destruction as they flew towards a wall and decimated it. The nine shinobi then took to the air, soaring above the Konoha skyline.

"STOP!" several ANBU shouted from the hole they made. They looked around and saw the ANBU jumping after them. The nine got ready for a fight, but before they could, they heard, "MULTI-SHADOW CLONE JUTSU!" Suddenly the sky was blacked out by Narutos! Thousands of them! Some of them fell onto the ANBU and threw them off course.

"Nice job, Naruto!" Kiba shouted, but Naruto wasn't done.

"Henge!" several clones said, and they were surrounded by smoke. As the smoke cleared, the Rookies were shocked to see several clones turned into them! The clones began descending on Konoha, running in random directions and yelling at everyone.

"That should buy us some time!" Naruto shouted to them. "But I don't know how much!"

"Then let's use it wisely!" Shikamaru ordered. "Everyone! Grab your effects and meet at the far right side of the village walls! ASAP!"

"Hai!" the Rookies shouted. They touched down on a random rooftop and separated. Naruto took off to his home when he was tackled from behind. "Ack!"

"Dammit, Naruto!" a clear, bell like voice rang out, making Naruto turn to see a pretty blonde woman wearing a black shinobi battle suit and piercing red eyes with a slit down the middle. She had a model's figure and was currently glaring at Naruto. Her name was Aki Chōwashibō, and she was Naruto's adopted older sister. "What in the hell's going on here?!"

"Aki! We don't have much time! We need to run!" Naruto pleaded with his older sister.

"Not until you explain what's going on!" she growled at him.

"I'll explain at the compound! Please, onee-chan! We don't have much time!"

She frowned at him, but looked around and noticed the ANBU were chasing not only his clones, but the clones he henged into his classmates. Something was wrong. She looked back to Naruto and said, "You better have a good explanation for this, young man!"

He smiled sheepishly and nodded. The two quickly vanished, making their way to the Chōwashibō clan home.


Danzō stared out a window of the Hokage tower, watching the chaos below when an ANBU with a blank mask with the Kanji for "Root" appeared before him.

"Report," he said emotionlessly.

"Danzō-sama," the shinobi intoned respectfully. "The Genjutsu was placed on the other eight Rookies just as you instructed, sir. They are to rendezvous at the far right end of the village walls before leaving."

"Good," Danzō nodded. "And the tracker seal?"

"Has been placed on the target as planned. Once sufficient time has passed, I shall personally go and remove the Genjutsu and tracker seal as instructed."

"Very well. See to it that they leave Konoha unopposed. Dismissed."

"Hai." The shinobi vanished, leaving Danzō alone with his thoughts. Sure, his plan was dirty, underhanded, risky, and would very well get his head taken off by the Shinobi council; but unlike what everyone thought, he truly did care for Konoha. He knew that having Naruto out of the village would not only give Konoha's enemies the chance to kill the child because of his parents or even just giving them another jinchūriki but it would ruin Konoha financially.

Neither seemed very good in his opinion.

This plan was very extreme for his tastes, but extreme times called for extreme measures. He wasn't sure how the civilians got the Daimyo's signature, but he assumed it was through lies and deceit. However, he knew this was one sure fire way to get the Daimyo's attention. If all the clan heirs and heiresses up and left with the Uzumaki boy, then their parents, the clan heads, would raise a fuss and sooner or later, force the Daimyo to repeal his verdict. Then, once that was done, his Root agents would remove the subtle Genjutsu placed on them.

The Genjutsu was to warp their minds enough that they'd save Naruto from this farce and leave Konoha. It wasn't damaging to their minds as long as it didn't affect their minds longer than a year, which Danzō had no intention of allowing. If it took longer than a year, he'd think of another contingency plan to enact.

He sighed as he stared back down at the chaos. 'Sometimes, I realize I really didn't envy you as much as I thought, Hiruzen.' After all…

He didn't have to deal with the paperwork this was going to be bringing the Hokage.
