It has been many long years since the battles that nearly ended the shinobi race. Taka’s goal to destroy Konoha had finally become reality… It was a devastating hit; Konoha had not been expecting it but was still tracking Sasuke and the Akatsuki else ware. Taka wreaked havoc on the village. They each took part in taking out many of the shinobi in the village. Sasuke in particular, took out the most. He took out his teachers, his friends, and the Hokage. One person though, that Sasuke wanted to fight more than anyone, was not there. Naruto was not there. Konoha was nearly destroyed; anyone who survived packed up and left what is now nothing but ruins. When Naruto heard the news he couldn’t believe it, he raced back to the village as quickly as possible only to see his home and friends gone. He almost was not able to suppress the Kyuubi’s power at that time because of the emotional blow it dealt. Naruto, took off again searching for Sasuke who was now hunting jinchuuriki for Akatsuki. Time caught up with both of them. Their numbers dwindled on each side. Akatsuki was dying, its members had slowly been picked off and a few had been plagued by disease. The Konoha shinobi were nearly gone. It came down to the two of them. A battle to end all battles is what it was called. A stalemate that killed both of them in the end... These are tragic times in the shinobi world. Many villages have been destroyed by war or fallen apart as time has gone by. It’s been nearly fifty years and new, small, villages have sprung up across the map. New kekkei genkai’s have been discovered but it’s nothing to celebrate when you’re a dying race.
