Hey guys Its Novablade67 here again. It's been a long time coming, but finally getting around to updating these stories. I do plan on making a sequel story to this at some point, just want to focus on the main story first. Anyways since there are Dbz villains in the story, i'll have to account for the power gap between naruto characters and dbz characters. That means while some events will be the same as the cannon naruto storyline, they'll play out differently and some events may be completely different. And don't worry, Hanabi is the only one for now that i'm turning into a saiyan.. Hinata possibly, but not sure yet. everyone else will stay as is. As for cell, i do plan on bringing him into the story eventually.. just at a later time maybe.. same for broly (it'll dragon ball super broly though, no original dbz broly cuz i think his backstory is stupid) Anyways enough from me, onto the story!
p.s.- i don't own any of the Naruto/ Naruto shipudden or dbz/kai/super characters. only thing i own are the oc's.
Chapter 11- Warmongering part 1: Arcosian Rift
Houjin and the others shifted into the stances as if they intended to take on cooler and his armored sqadron a second time. There was a tense few moments of silence before cooler relaxed and made known his true intentions for deliberately aggravating them. The arcosian shrugged in mock defeat, he knew he wasn't anywhere near powerful enough to defeat Houjin.
Cooler- Alright, you got me saiyan. I know it would be foolish for me to take you on when i have no chance of winning.
Hanabi- What are you up to cooler? What do you want from us?
Cooler- allow me to explain, saiyan.
Kazumi wanted to argue that Hanabi was not yet a saiyan, but cooler silenced her.
Cooler- It's only a matter of time until she does become one, girl. Besides, her blood's already more than 80% turned into a saiyan's by now. She'll be a saiyan in just a day or two. That gives her roughly around 24 to 48 hours left as a human i'd say.
Kazumi's eyes widened in shock, as did team 7's. Was it really that soon? None of them could believe that in possibly just a few hours that Hanabi would no longer be able to use chakra as she once did. This was due to the fact that her chakra was almost completely fused with the ki she suddenly had out of the blue. It was then that Sakura considered something that was on everyone's minds at the moment. She went ahead and asked Hanabi the thought everyone other than cooler and his goons were thinking.
Sakura- Hanabi, does Hinata know about this?
Hanabi was silent for a moment but then answered her friend's inquiry.
Hanabi- ... yeah. Hinata onee san knows about my predicament already. I told her so in a letter i sent recently. And.. i'm betting Neji nii san knows as well by virtue of the same method.
Sakura looked at her friend sadly, this was probably a really hard thing for her to accept. And it also sounded like the Hyuuga clan heiress had put alot of thought into this before she eventually accepted the changes that were happening to her.
Cooler cleared his throat to redirect everyone's attention back to himself. Now that everyone knew of Hanabi's predicament, they could move on to more important matters like stopping Glacial from getting all 7 dragon balls. And for this, Cooler was willing to play nice with the shinobi and cooperate this time. But it was only so he could take down his fool of brother, after that they'd be back to being enemies again. Team 6 was surprisingly on board with this idea much to the shock and bewilderment of team 7.
Why they chose to trust a guy like cooler, team 7 didn't know. But kakashi knew that team 6 was smart enough to know a trap when they saw or heard of one, Yugao's team would be fine. Team 7 reluctantly followed suit, but only so they'd have team 6's back in case they got into trouble. Both sides relaxed their stances and agreed to resume their fight after the bigger enemy had been dealt with.
They sat down and came up with a plan to deal with Glacial, but first they needed to somehow convince Roh to join them or rather allow them to help him take down Glacial. The big question was... how would they do that? Roh had his own subordinates that were willing to fight for him. Just as Glacial had the Ginyu Force, and Cooler had the Armored Squadron, Roh had the Pride Troopers.. or at least that's what team 6 thought they heard. Cooler nodded to confirm their suspicions. What they'd heard was indeed correct. One thing still bothered them though...
Hanabi- I've been wondering about something.. or rather someone...
Yugao- What's on your mind, Hanabi?
Houjin- It's ok Hana, these guys are here to help us... for now... If they try something, we'll deal with them like we have any other enemy thus far. And I won't let them harm you if they do try to stab us in the back, you know that. Right?
Hanabi- Yes.. of course Hou-kun. I've neen wondering but.. Who is this Jiren guy?
Cooler- Jiren? Oh.. that's right... He's the strongest of Roh's subordinates, though he prefers to call them his mercenaries.
Hanabi- The strongest of his mercenaries?
The Alien nodded, he'd experienced Jiren's strength first hand after all and he barely survived. Houjin thought about what they could say to Roh, so he'd understand the situation. He stroked his chin out of habit when thinking, something he'd picked up from Black no doubt. Sakura then spoke up and had a surprisingly good idea.
Sakura- Well.. here's a thought. We could just tell him what's going on around here currently.
Cooler- Huh.. That's unconventional but.. that type of a thing may just work. Besides, Roh is a reasonable individual, I'm sure he'll understand and agree to help provided he knows the whole story.
It seemed like a sound plan too. There was just one issue with that... The pride troopers would be more than a little suspicious about receiving help from some strangers. Luckily Cooler had a plan in mind for that.
Cooler- Leave the little details of our situation for me to explain to Roh for now. Who did you see there with him?
The alien looked to Hanabi who squirmed a little nervously before answering.
Hanabi- uh.. um well there was someone named.. Toppo and ... Dyst... I think his name was?
Cooler- I see... Well then, let me and my men handle Glacial while you try and convince Roh to help us.
The teams nodded, albeit hesitantly. Houjin couldn't blame them though, they were having to process a ton of info in a short amount of time. Cooler then turned and set off towards Glacial, but not before saying his peace towards Houjin and Kazuna.
Cooler- Know that this isn't over, saiyans. We'll settle things once that idiotic brother of mine is dealt with.
Houjin smirked and then answered back as they went in opposite directions of each other.
Houjin- Wouldn't have it any other way, arcosian.
Hanabi looked to Houjin in confusion. Be smiled to reassure her that everything would be fine. They just needed to convince Roh that they could help him deal with Glacial. Naruto decided to speak up then and voiced team 7's concerns on the matter.
Naruto- You're certain we can trust cooler, Houjin?
Sakura- You've had some crazy ideas before brother, but.. I think this one is even more crazy.
Sasuke- How do we know that he won't turn on us in the midst of the mission?
Houjin- we don't actually.
The others just looked at him like he'd grown a second head. The flame haired saiyan then went on to explain what he meant by his earlier comment. The saiyan explained that he fully expected cooler to try and double cross them in the midst of the operation because at least 4 of them were saiyans. Something about working alongside saiyans just didn't sit well with arcosians in general for some reason. Well... most arcosians that is. Roh may be different though. Just the fact that Cooler called them monkeys was proof of where his standing and priorities were.
Sakura- So... you think he'll attack you just because 5 of you guys are saiyans?
Kazumi- Racist jerk...
Sakura/Sasuke/Naruto- O_O
Kazumi- What? Someone had to say it!
Kazuma- Don't mind them Kazumi, they're just in shock that you of all people would say something like that.
Hanabi- I couldn't agree more Kazumi chan, It's what all of us were thinking anyways.
Team 7- EHHH?!?!?!
Hanabi- uh.. umm.. did I say something weird again?
Houjin chuckled and placed a hand on his girlfriend's shoulder. He smiled before answering her inquiry.
Houjin- No Hana. I think team 7 is just surprised that you'd agree with what Kazumi said. Isn't that right sis?
Sakura- y-yeah... I'm going to.. need a minute here.
Naruto- same here... Never thought I'd hear nee San say something like that.
Sasuke of course said nothing, he was still silently gawking at the bizarre scene in front of him. His face was a mask of indifference, but internally he was still trying to wrap his head around the fact that several of his peers were aliens. He was trying to come up with a way to stop cooler and this glacial person all on his own. It bugged him that Naruto was constantly getting more and more powerful, the gap between their strengths was closing fast. If he wasn't careful, the dobe could end up surpassing him before long. And that was something he couldn't allow to happen. The 7 teenagers then came to their two sensei instructors and laid out the plan for them. Yugao and Kakashi were both pleasantly surprised at what their students thought up as a counter attack.
The two Jonin smiled, they couldn't have asked for better teams. This would be their team's first joint mission together, so they would have to make it count. The group of shinobi then headed out towards their objective. One way or another, they'd make this work. Most of their combat oriented plans for this were only as a last resort, hopefully Roh was as reasonable as Cooler said he was. That way, they wouldn't need to fight to gain his trust.
Dyspo made his way back towards Roh, he'd spied on the group of saiyan and humans, overhearing their plans. If what they said was true, maybe they could use their help in taking down Glacial.
He made his way back to camp and then knelt in front of Roh, who noticed his approach. Roh then waved off his other subordinate, ordering him to go do some reconnaissance. The Alien then turned to Dyspo, anticipating that he had something of value to report.
Roh- I see you've returned Dyspo.
Dyspo- Yes, my Lord.
Roh- And what is it you have to report? You obviously have something on your mind, my friend.
Dyspo was taken aback by Roh's cordial attitude towards him. It.. was... different experiencing Roh this way. He seemed... kinder? It was hard to tell what might have caused such a massive change in attitude. The Blue skinned alien gave Dyspo an odd look and was curious as to why he was so surprised by his response to him.
Roh- Is something wrong Dyspo? You seem rather surprised at something.
Realizing that he was staring dumbfounded at his leader, Dyspo just shook his head and waved his hands in front of his face in order to dissuade his leader from thinking there was something amiss.
Dyspo- N-No No! Nothing's wrong, It's just..
Roh- Just what?
Dyspo- You seem... different my Lord. Ah! D-different in a good way of course!
Roh seemed to ponder his response for a moment before voicing his reply to Dyspo's claim. He thought carefully on how to convey his thoughts to the pride trooper without reverting back to his old persona, which he wasn't proud of.
Roh- I was made aware of how others perceive me. This led me to believe that a change in how I approach things and how I conduct myself was in order. You can say... That I've... gained a fresh perspective on things so to speak. I figured it was time for a change, starting with myself.
Dyspo said nothing at first but then voiced his surprise and pleasure at this development. This was just before he remembered what he originally came to tell Roh in the first place.
Dyspo- A-anyway I came to tell you that there's a group here who wanted to meet with you.
Roh- Oh? What do they want?
Dyspo- You're going to be surprised by who it is sir...
Roh- who is it that could possibly surprise me?
Houjin- I don't know, you tell me Roh.
Roh turned, as he did not recognize that voice who spoke up. When he did he was somewhat surprised. There, in front of him, was a group of 5 saiyans and 4 humans. Teams 6 and 7 had come to Roh to ask him for a favor. Roh was surprised, to think that saiyans would so willingly come to seek his aid was in a word... bizarre. It was odd because it was well documented that saiyans and arcosians did not get along well. In fact, the two hated each other... for the most part anyways.
Roh- well, well isn't this a surprise. To what do I owe the pleasure, Saiyan?
Houjin- I'm told you're rather reasonable, Roh. So we have a proposition for you.
Roh- Oh? I'm curious as to what this proposition is.
Houjin- We'd like to help you take down Glacial, if you'll have our help that is. We know you already have your own subordinates to help you, but we'll offer what help we can if you'll allow us to assist you.
Roh- And what can you offer in return, Saiyan?
Houjin- a trustworthy partnership. I can tell that you're not like the other arcosians, so I'd be willing to work alongside you.
Roh considered the proposal. If he was serious about changing, it'd be worthwhile to try and mend things between himself and the people he's previously wronged. That included the saiyans. Besides, he could tell that the saiyans before him would be more help than some of his own subordinates would be. Houjin spoke up again as he added another condition to sweeten the deal for Roh.
Houjin- plus, We'd help you be able to take back the Dragon balls that Glacial has in his possession. That way, you'd have all 7 of them and you could make whatever wish it was that you were gathering them for.
Roh considered this, the saiyan had a point. He then nodded and shook the saiyan's hand that was extended. This surprised everyone, an unlikely alliance never before seen was then formed.
Roh- very well, you have a deal Saiyan.
Houjin- Good. It will be a pleasure to work with you, arcosian. And it's Houjin Haruno.
Roh- Ah, yes. Roh, pleasure to work with you, Houjin.
Dyspo and everyone present couldn't believe their eyes. The most unlikely alliance was just formed, saiyans and arcosians would be fighting side by side as allies for the first time in history! As to what this alliance would bring only time would determine the fruit of this unlikely team up. This mini war to take down a tyrannical enemy would begin in earnest.
To be continued in chapter 12 Warmongering II: P.T.O War arc part 1
Hey guys I hope you enjoyed this setup chapter. This is going to be a little mini arc in the story before the story switches back to the cannon timeline. There will be a timeskip coming up after this mini arc, that'll be following the Naruto vs Sasuke fight which ended part 1 of Naruto. At that point, the story will transition into shipudden. Naruto will still leave with Jiraiya to go train for 3 years.
Important notes: In the shipudden half of this story below are the ages of the cast:
Naruto Uzumaki- 17 years old
Hinata Hyuga- 17 years old
Houjin Haruno- 17 years old
Hanabi Hyuga- 16 years old
Kazuna Inazuka- 17 years old
Kazumi Uzumaki- 17 years old

And I'm planning to have Hanabi and Houjin reveal hanabi's secret to Hiashi once this little mini arc is over. During the time before the 3 year timeskip, I'll have another mini arc planned and it'll be an original one like this current one. During that time 2 more saiyan oc's will come into the story. I have the rights to use them, but they're ComparedDread12's oc's. Anyways, I'll update the other stories periodically when I'm able to. Until then, I'll see you in the next update!
