(My recommendation if you listen to music is to look up Blue Skies (Infinity Remix.) Since it is the theme song to this story and the opening battle song…you'll know.
This is the remake of Perfect Time. Primrose)
What drives someone to do the impossible?
Need, ambition, or is it destiny?
Fate even?
Odds were that the impossible would remain such, impossible. The toppling of a Goddess, impossible, until today. With a thunderous boom, the loud crack of lightning, and the howling of a Goddess turned Demoness. The answer to that question was becoming clear.
Love.
A youth with a golden cloak covering everything but his face flew. He dodges several beams of purple light as a woman with lavender eyes, and the third eye in her forehead aimed at him. Her long kimono fluttered in the winds, the white fabric betrayed the dark heart of the wearer.
Kaguya Ōtsutsuki, The Rabbit Goddess, The Demoness. She flails storms, she crushed mountains, bent reality to her whim. Yet, she couldn't bend the will of Naruto Uzumaki. The person she was fighting now, he flew around using powers he himself barely understood and dodged anything she threw at him.
Suddenly he throws something from his hand, a knife? All three of her eyes widened as the knife sailed past her and he appeared just behind her. A mighty kick sent her sprawling downward. Her eyes wide with pain, despite her healing factor making sure she wasn't seriously injured.
Slamming into the earth below, purple grass fluttered across the ground from the impact winds. Landing on the ground, Naruto Uzumaki grunts as he breathed hard. She slowly got back up to her feet, floating up from the ground when she did.
"Had enough?" Naruto shot at her, "because I'm just warming up."
"Bravado, incarnate of Ashura, will only get you so far. Your friend, the incarnation of Indra, is out of power. You, all alone, like you always were. Tell me, Uzumaki Naruto, what does it feel like to hold infinite power inside of you?" Kaguya floats toward him slowly, "what does it feel like to be a Kami?"
"I'm not a Kami," Naruto stated as he got ready. "My power comes from those that I call my friends, your power is just stolen!"
Kaguya charges at him, both clash in a massive blast of power. An ethereal fist crashes against golden one, with Naruto and her locking eyes. The pressure wave flattens the land around them, their fight was on whole other level. The Jinchuuriki of The Kyūbi No Yoko stood his ground as another ethereal fist was launched between them.
The teen in front of her grunts as he was pushed back from that blow. However, he suddenly jumps backs. Her eyes widened as she turns around to see several spheres of various elements heading toward her. Quickly her third eye widened, only for the spheres to turn into kunai. The kunai slammed into her arms, drawing blood.
One of the kunai suddenly had Naruto appearing beside it and grabbing from her shoulder. Without remorse, he slams the blade into her chest before kicking her away. He floats there, watching as her body pushes the rest of the blades out. Her growling and demeanor signaling a change as she rose up to face him.
There were no words as she looked right into him, then she smirks. As much as he continued to fight his chakra system was slowly, but surely, frazzling out. Giving him a dark smile, she suddenly creates several bones and shoots them at him. Not wanting to end up like Obito, Naruto dodges them. He in turns throws a Rasenshuriken at her.
The mass of chakra is ineffective as it hit her but allowed for good over for him to escape. He flew as fast as he could to where the others were. Landing down he collapsed to his knees, he looked over at Sakura who still giving Sasuke chakra.
Kakashi watches as the wind sphere began to die down, "she'll be coming soon."
"Tell me something I don't Kakashi-sensei," Naruto breathed as he tried to stand up. "I'm almost drained."
"How," Sakura asks as she looked at him, "you've got all The Nine Bijuu and then some."
Naruto takes a deep breath, "she absorbs what I throw at her, so I had to put in more effort."
She then noticed something, Naruto was bleeding from his mouth, "Naruto…you've got internal bleeding."
The incarnation of Ashura nods, "I know…I can't afford the chakra to heal myself."
"Idiot," Sakura hissed as she walks over to him, "Shōsen Jutsu!"
He felt the chakra begin to heal him, she even began to transfer chakra over to him. Slowly, he felt his body become more relaxed as Sasuke stood up. The Last Uchiha looked at Naruto, frowning as he heard the wind sphere die down.
"What's the plan," Sasuke asked as he looks Naruto, "what now?"
"Oh God, you're asking me what we're going to do? Holy crap, Dattebayo, we may not actually pull this off." Naruto laughs cynically as he got up, still breathing hard.
"Giving up, dobe?" Sasuke inquired while holding out his hand.
"No way, bastard," Naruto replies as he is helped up.
Sakura watches as both walk forward, Sasuke turns to her, "get as far as you can…"
"What?" Sakura looked bewildered, "we're in this together."
"Sakura-chan," Naruto faces her when he looked over his shoulder, "we need you alive after this."
Sasuke nods, "listen to him, we're the only ones that can win this fight."
Kakashi looked at them both, they weren't going to admit it openly, but they both were low on chakra. He gets up, he could feel Obito calling out to him to stand and protect the world he cherished. Sakura didn't listen to them either, she instead stood next to Sasuke.
"You two are boneheads, the both of you. You cannot seriously think I'd let you go and throw yourselves into the fire," Sakura had tears brimming at her eyes, "and allow you to die without me at your sides."
She stands between them, "you're not the only ones…"
Sasuke and Naruto looked at her with her mouth agape as Kakashi walks to the front of them. He turns to them, smiling as he lowered his mask. Revealing his face for the first time, slowly but surely it dawns upon them all.
This was it, the final push!
Kaguya lands in front of them, her power was increasing. She looked at them, smirking, they looked ready to die. As she grew one of her ashen bones, she saw that determination, perhaps she could help them? However, what she didn't expect was Naruto allowing Kakashi and Sakura to run ahead of him and Sasuke.
'Are they fools,' Kaguya throws the spears of bone, 'they'll get skewered!'
The bones impact Kakashi and Sakura, only for them to suddenly explode. The black smoke filled the air around them as Kaguya fell into a trap. Her eyes widened when the smoke cleared to reveal hundreds of Naruto, all of them holding large Rasengan.
"Senpō: Chōōdama Rasen Tarengan!" Kaguya's eyes widened, even with so little chakra he could do this?!
She readied herself to absorb the blasts but suddenly felt something hit her back. It was Amaterasu, the flames burned heavily on her back. She was forced to shift her absorbing powers to handle it. However, that's when things started getting out of hand when she saw lightning-enhanced shuriken suddenly rush toward her, covered in black lightning.
"Kamui Shuriken!" Kakashi yells out as he appeared all around her, using shadow clones.
'Impossible,' She was forced to jump up, 'how did they…when.?!'
She shoots bones at random, determined to get collateral amongst the group. She failed to notice the Kamui enhanced shuriken impact each other, forming a large portal. Naruto's clones above her were getting destroyed left and right, but she never bothered to look down.
"Hey, your psychotic demoness!" Kaguya looks down, her eyes widened tremendously.
Dozens of small Rasenshuriken flew from the portal. Naruto's clones from above flew faster, and the Rasenshuriken from below began to grow larger. Looking for an escape Kaguya tries to form a portal to fly into only for Kamui to seal no sooner than she reaches for it.
Kakashi's right begins to bleed slightly as he watches her glare at him. He only wore a proud smirk on his face, as if he was proud to have made sure she'd suffer from fear. Indeed, Kaguya felt that fear when Naruto's attacks finally impacted.
Her Rinne-Sharingan ran wild, trying to negate, block, and absorb attacks. However, she felt various pieces of her get blown off. Blood slowly drop down from her mouth as more and more of his attacks breached.
This was impossible!
She looks around, trying to find an exit, but instead Naruto himself and Sasuke himself assisted by a Naruto clone flew toward her. Their hands with the marks were outstretched, this was it, the time was now!
Her broken body began to heal, trying to rapidly repair critical damage so she could move. It was to no avail as Naruto grabbed her right arm, and Sasuke grabbed her arm. Or so it would appear, instead, Zetsu had flowed itself around to protect its mother.
Kaguya smirks, "good job…my son."
"Now Okasan," Zetsu gleefully screams, "kill them both!"
Bone shot out from her palms, impacting both Naruto and Sasuke. However, they just both smirked before transforming into Kakashi's clones. To her added surprise both clones suddenly glow bright blue. Kaguya screams as lightning chakra coursed through her.
The real Naruto and Sasuke stood by Sakura, who looked at them, "now?"
Naruto flew up, Sasuke turned to her, "now!"
She grabs Sasuke by his arm before twirling him and throwing him. Kaguya started to recover as Naruto sent one of the spheres to Sasuke which formed into a disk he could ride on. Surfing through the air, Naruto and Sasuke both felt a sudden wave of chakra come from Kaguya.
The Demoness roars out as she powers through the lightning chakra, spotting Kakashi, "you!"
Kakashi just smirks as she sends an ashen bone toward him, only for it to phase right through. She screams in rage before her eyes focus on Naruto and Sasuke, she barely had time warp away when they got to her. However, warping behind them she found that another trap had been laid out.
Sakura was on the ground gripping chakra wire Sasuke had made, she suddenly pulls with tremendous force. The wire wraps around the Ōtsutsuki matriarch. Cutting into exposed flesh like her face, she roars as Sakura pulls tighter.
"I'm a woman too, ya know," Sakura yells up at her, "so don't you dare count me out!"
Suddenly she feels the incarnations of her grandchildren behind her, she turns her head to face them. Her eyes widened when she started forming small portals behind her to send ashen bones at them. She knew they were real, they had to be!
Sakura lets go of the wires and hurls two kunai as hard as she could!
The kunai flew fast enough to where they were right in front of her. Sasuke's Rinne-Sharingan eye widened as he grabbed Naruto. The bone was just about to scratch him when he suddenly disappeared with Naruto in tow. The woman's eyes widened when her Rinne-Sharingan was suddenly hit by two kunai. Piercing right through, she screams in pain, clutching her forehead as her healing factor pushed the kunai out. However, her most powerful asset closed, healing itself. She suddenly snaps at the feeling of someone gripping her front shoulder.
"Sasuke!" Naruto screams as his sun marks glow brightly!
"Naruto!" Sasuke roars at the same time as his best friend!
Both shout with all their worth, "Rikudō: Chibaku Tensei!"
Kaguya screams in anguish as she is sent flying up, the woman thrashes as earth cracks around the area. Slowly, but surely going upwards. Slamming into her, Naruto and Sasuke fall backward, getting caught by Kakashi as the mountains around them slammed into The Demoness.
Naruto's Six Paths Sage Mode drops as he and Sasuke land on the ground with Kakashi holding them both. The duo was breathing hard as Sasuke's Rinne-Sharingan lost its tomoe. Both looked at one another, slowly but surely, a smile formed on their faces.
Bringing up their fist Naruto and Sasuke bumped each other. Sakura looks at them, holding back tears before falling to her knees by them, wrapping her arms around both. Team Seven had just saved the entire world, not just their village.
Sasuke then spoke, "how did you know that I could teleport us both?"
"I don't know," Naruto looked at his right palm, "that mark just…told me."
"Mark?" Sasuke looks at him, his eyes widened as he looked up.
A loud explosion came across the area as the new moon that was being formed exploded!
"You've gotta be kidding me, Dattebayo…" Naruto breathed as he watches a giant white misshapen palm push a piece away.
A giant, very malformed, rabbit screams as it suddenly forms the Bijuu behind it. Only for the heads to pull themselves out and fall to the ground as the beasts. They all looked weaken, tired, Kurama was the only one conscious.
The Kyūbi No Yoko looked at Naruto, "brat…get out of here."
"Kurama, guys, what's going on?" Naruto questions them, looking for signs of any movement.
"Kitten, Kaguya forced our chakra into her system. She broke the seal, now her own chakra is running wild, she can't even contain it. Her intent is to start anew, she is going to destroy all dimensions." Matatabi answers as she raised her head up, "There's nothing we can do…"
Suddenly the rabbit's mouth opened and kept opening like a snake until a large black ball of chakra formed. It was like the sphere Naruto had behind him, and it just kept growing, consuming chakra around it.
Massive entity collapsed into this black ball of energy, it crackled with purple lightning as everyone felt reality distort around them. The skies all began to crackle with purple lightning, what was dark blue was slowly becoming a sickening yellow. Naruto looked at Sakura, then at Sasuke, Kakashi looked defeated.
"No," Naruto squeezes his hands to the point they started bleeding. "I refuse that, I refuse to believe there's nothing we can't do!"
Naruto looks right at Sasuke, "we're going to do the sealing Jutsu again!"
"Naruto," Kakashi looks at him, "there's not enough chakra between either of you to do that."
"I don't care!" Naruto screamed as he walks forward, "I'm not going to let some power-hungry demoness destroy all that I care about!"
"Tell me Ashura, tell me Indra, how does it feel to be powerless? Trapped, without a way to save all that you built, all that was yours!" Kaguya's voice boomed across the area, heavy in tone like a demon.
The Uzumaki stares right up at her, his anger breaks as Six Path's Sage Mode explodes around him. He roars as he starts absorbing any nature chakra around him, grunting as his hands started to glow brighter. Sasuke watches with Rinnegan as Naruto's chakra system began to tear itself apart, he saw the inner gates start to break open.
"You idiot stop, you're going to kill yourself!" Sasuke screams as Naruto's rage exploded around him.
The blonde flew toward Kaguya, "I will not let you destroy all that I love!"
Kaguya's form shifts back into her original form, just in time to point a palm toward Naruto and blast him with a wave of chakra. The incarnation of Ashura flew back, crashing into the ground as the chakra washed over him. It ends soon afterward, leaving him with burns as he struggled to stand back up.
The Demoness sneers at him, "know your place, animal."
Naruto punched the ground, charging back up fast as he could, "shut up with your lofty bullshit!"
"You say we're thieves, but I saw the people that took! The people that you force fed that damn tree with, you're nothing but a monster!" Naruto claps his hands together as a battle avatar formed over him in the likeness of Kurama, "and I'm going to put you down!"
"Many have tried," Kaguya readied another wave of chakra, "all of them became one with me."
The last Uzumaki screams as he flew toward her, intent to use his avatar as a shield. Kaguya merely chuckled as she dialed up the power of her energy wave, the blast echoed as it launched. Sasuke's eyes widened when Naruto's avatar broke immediately on impact.
He almost took the full power, falling toward the ground as he covered in white light. Kaguya laughs manically, watching as Naruto struggled to stand back up. However, something was off, he should've been turning into ash!
Instead, adamantine chains covered him, and she swore she saw a redheaded woman in the light with him.
Naruto knew this warmth, "Okasan?"
Kushina Uzumaki looked right into her son's eyes, "Naruto…"
She smiles at him, "I'm proud of you…everyone is…"
Naruto thought of everyone, slowly feeling something enter him. He saw multiple streams of chakra, all of them like palms laying on him. He looked at Kushina, her own chakra was flowing into him.
Hagaromo was staring at Shinju, it began to move as cocoons began to fall and hit the ground. His eyes widened, he still didn't have his seals back. Watching as one opened, revealing the form of one Hinata Hyuuga he noticed the glowing of her right palm.
That's when he saw streams of their chakra began to flow toward the sky, 'can you feel them Naruto…they're breaking the dream…they're giving you one last chance.'
Hagaromo gripped his staff, 'make it count!'
"That chakra is mine, give it to me, give it to me!" Kaguya screams as she thrashed about, slamming more waves of chakra down on Kushina's spirit.
The redhead winces as she looks at her only child, "Naruto…they're giving you one last chance."
"We can't do the sealing Jutsu," Naruto lamented as he felt began to power back up to his fullest. "Without the moon…"
"Then the sun must wash away," Naruto's eyes widened when he heard his mother interrupt him, "it must wash away the darkness."
Kaguya roars as she slams another wave of chakra down, Kushina grunts in pain, "Naruto…I have to…go…now."
Kushina's barrier began to break, she then smiles at him, "if…you don't make it, dinner will be ready."
Tears spilled from Naruto's eyes as he nodded, "okay Okasan…I love you."
"I love you too," her spirit disappears as her barrier breaks, "tell that dumb fox to help you out…"
"Kushina…?" Kurama looked down and saw a little bit of her chakra enter him, jump-starting his own system again.
He grunts as he felt himself get washed with the same type of chakra, he felt Naruto getting, "Naruto!"
The white light washes over Naruto as he stood there, he felt no pain.
"Naruto!"
The white light grew intensity, yet the only light shining through was the golden chakra inside of him.
"NARUTO!"
Naruto breaks the white light, Kaguya's eyes widened as the sphere continued to grow behind her. Standing where her light burned the earth black was Naruto, covering in a golden light, new Gudōdama. Something began to shift though, the teen had not nine spheres, but ten.
Slowly, but surely, he walks from the blackened earth as Kurama joined his side. Outstretching his right fist Kurama bumps it before flowing into Naruto. His power increased dramatically as a result. Kaguya looked down at him, she could see chakra streams going into him instead of her!
"What is the meaning of this?!" She screams as Naruto took a deep breath, "tell me!"
"The Shinobi World is free; your light doesn't work anymore…or should I say your dream world is no more. We are Shinobi," Naruto spoke for everyone as he pointed to his chest with his thumb, "and out Nindō is never back down or submit."
He glared right at her, "especially to monsters like you!"
Crouching down Naruto looks over at Sasuke and Sakura, he gives them a smile. Sasuke recognized that smile, he gets up to stop Naruto only for the blonde to fly straight up. A trail of light flowing from him, as if he was a shooting star in a night sky.
The sky darkens as Naruto notice the sphere reaching critical mass, using his ten spheres he sends eight of them down toward the other Bijuu. Slowly the chakra from the spheres leaked into them, each of them glowing golden in color as they woke up and stood up.
Matatabi who had been struggling before stands up, "kitten…"
Another sphere lands on the ground forming Kurama, who looked confused as he felt slightly drained again. He saw the other Bijuu, his brothers and sisters, with the same glow. They all looked at one another, confused until the tenth sphere formed a clone.
"Guys," the sphere clone looked at them, "I'm going to take Kaguya inside of the sphere. You need to work in conjunction with Sasuke and Kakashi to bend space and time around the sphere."
"Form a blackhole basically?" Son Goku asks.
The sphere clone nods, "yes, and don't let up! If the Sun and Moon cannot seal away the darkness, then The Sun shall wash it all away."
"Naruto…you'll…" Kurama felt something from his eyes, "die…"
"I know…" Sasuke looked on the verge of tears as he watches the actual Naruto fly toward Kaguya still, dodging light beam after light beam.
Naruto's clone looks at Sasuke and Sakura, "I love you both…"
"Sakura, when we were kids, I mistook the love I felt for you like something like romantic, but I just…" Naruto's clone started to falter a little bit, "I love you like the sister I always wanted."
"Naruto…you don't have to do this!" Sakura yells as she watches him fly off.
The clone shook his head, "I have too…this is for our world."
Sasuke didn't hide his tears, he looked right at Naruto, "why you?"
"Because it was always going to be me," Naruto's clone gave a toothy smile. "I never back down, I never quit, and in the end…"
Naruto and Sasuke clash Jutsu. The waves of power wash the area in bright light.
The blonde and Hyuuga heiress sat near a swing set. He comforts her as she had just gotten bullied for her eye color again.
Kiba, Shikamaru, Chouji, and Naruto all jumped out of a window. Iruka was in hot pursuit of them all, irritated that they were once again skipping class.
Shion and Naruto descend into the volcano holding hands and forming a joint Rasengan to defeat an ancient demon.
Kakashi and Naruto clash Rasengan.
Kushina and Minato cuddle a newborn blonde infant.
Iruka smiled as he hands Naruto his first bowl of ramen, smiling as he let the child wear his headband.
Hundreds, thousands, of people stood behind Naruto Uzumaki. Every one of them had chakra flowing into him, his own chakra system was burning out. He was burning, but those flames didn't hurt, they pushed him.
The Sun was rising…
"My definition of Shinobi is the same as family," Naruto's clone's glare fixated right on Sasuke. "That's why I knew you were in trouble…because the real you would never become like Kaguya is now."
"Dobe…" Sasuke mumbles as he reaches out to him, "don't…"
Naruto's clone smiled, "see you around Sasuke…and thank you."
The clone begins to fade, "now go do your job idiot, I love you, Nīsan."
"NARUTO NO!" Sasuke screams as the clone fades away.
The bright shooting star slammed into the dark Goddess. It sends them both flying into the dark sphere, slowly the sphere began to contort. Inside of it, nothing but white light, Kaguya flies toward the top to escape only for Naruto to appear in front of her.
"Where do you think you're going?!" Naruto punches her down before reappearing below her.
Suddenly he smirked as chains emerged from him, wrapping themselves around her. The woman thrashes about, screaming her head off as she tries to break free. The Demoness growls, trying to produce ashen bones but found that her own power was draining quickly.
The sphere was absorbing both of their chakras, "no…you'll kill us both you fool!"
"I know," Naruto wrapped the chains tightly around himself as well to make sure she couldn't get out, "but that's fine…"
"Why would you go so far for the very people that hated you!" Kaguya questions him as the sphere began to echo.
Naruto chuckles a little bit, "those very people saved me from myself…I don't know what will happen next. However, I do know that I've lived a good seventeen years, unlike you."
"Naraku has a special place for people like," the blonde's Six Path's Sage Mode ends as the sun mark on his palm mark disappears. "I don't know about me, but I know you'll suffer for all the pain you've caused."
"To think…I…the mother of all chakra," she growled. "Defeated by a fragment of it."
"I'm no fragment," a loud boom echoed around them. "Make peace Kaguya…you don't have long to do so."
"I will come back, I will come back and take what is mine!" She screams as the sphere collapsed around them.
Sasuke's eyes bled as he fell to his knees, his own palm mark disappears. The sphere explodes, only to collapse in on itself as Kakashi's eyes bled all the same as Sasuke's. The Bijuu held their palms out to the sphere, slowly the sky darkened around them.
Sakura was sobbing as she places her hands on their backs, "Naruto…"
They suddenly felt something pull them away as the darkness grew around them, appearing in front of everyone as they began to wake up at the giant tree. Hinata's eyes widened as Hagaromo frowned, he saw that Naruto wasn't among them.
"What happened?" Hagaromo asks.
"Naruto," Sasuke started as he looked at Hinata and then faded away. "I'm so sorry…"
Hinata lowers her head as Kiba stands by her, her other teammate Shino does as well. Slowly, it dawned upon Minato at what just happened, and he sighed. He watches as Hinata collapsed, sobbing, he looked at Sasuke. The Uchiha was sobbing as well, punching the ground.
"Don't weep," Sasuke looked at Minato. "You'll tarnish his memory, Sasuke-kun."
Minato looks at Hinata, "and you need to be strong. My son wouldn't want you anyone to break down over him, instead celebrate the gift he gave us…"
Bee looks at Minato, "your kiddo was awesome, yo, world-class to the max. He even gave old Madara Uchiha that ax."
The Edo Tensei just laughs a little bit, "I know…and for the first time I get to sit down with him and have dinner."
Hagaromo took a deep breath as he opened his eyes, "I should be going…Sasuke."
Sasuke stood up, looking at the sage, "what is it?"
"Do not follow the path of my eldest son, even it seems like the world won't get along with a gentle hand. A gardener can only cultivate life, move it in the right direction when required if he tries to force it…" Hagaromo looked right into Sasuke's soul, "that very life would die."
Frowning, Sasuke looked around, "I don't think I'll be alive to even try anything."
"I doubt that," The Sage said. "Because without you this world would've died as well."
Sasuke sighs, "can I really…amount to what he left behind?"
Hagaromo lowered down to the ground before holding out his staff, "only one way to find out."
Naruto's eyes slowly opened as he looks around, "Okasan…Otosan…"
Taking a deep breath, the blonde looks at the darkness he was floating, he could feel his heartbeat. When he died before getting Ashura's powers, he didn't feel his heart. He was still alive, how, he could never know. The teen grimaced as he tried to move his arms, he looks at them, they were both black and blue.
It was hell, the pain was searing and hot. Taking another labored breath Naruto then smirked when he saw Kaguya's lifeless body floating by him. Seemingly lifeless anyway, he watches as she turns over. She had a shocked expression plastered all over her face.
"Oi," Naruto calls out to her, "you dead…or what?"
Suddenly her left eye moved to look at him, making him scream, "are you kidding me right now Dattebayo?!"
"You…little…thief." Kaguya reaches out to him, "how dare…you."
'Not good, she can heal and warp dimensions, think of something…anything!' Naruto had a lightbulb moment and formed a Rasengan in his right hand.
Except it didn't work, he couldn't form chakra. By the looks of it, neither could Kaguya, for all her anger she seemed just as badly damaged if not a little more. Zetsu wasn't anywhere near her, but Naruto knew he didn't escape the blast, more than likely vaporized or cannibalized by his own mother to survive.
Kaguya struggled to look at him, but she had a sneer on her face, "led…a good life huh? Then why are you in Naraku with me?"
"Pfft," Naruto rolls his eyes, "passing by, thought I'd give you one last send-off."
"You're a terrible liar," she admitted as she looked at him. "Because even I don't know where we are."
"Well hooray for me then, Dattebayo. I'm more than happy to slowly die here if it means you suffer just a little bit more," Naruto says to her, nothing but malice in his voice, "you deserve it for everything."
"Oh please…spare me." Kaguya replied as she glared at him, "you're no more a victim than a thief."
"My parents, my clan, my friends, and my entire race suffered under you. You're a demoness, and all for what? Because someone hurt you, you act like that the only person that mattered was yourself. Well, look where that got you, floating in here with dumb o'l motormouth me." Naruto continues to ramble, "ain't karma something else?"
"Silence!" Kaguya yells as she looks down on him from where she started to float above him.
"Screw you!" Naruto screams as he flicks her off, attempting to raise his hand as well.
He grunts in pain, "when my arms heal up before I starve to death, I'm going pound some sense into your dumbass head!"
Kaguya just looks at him, "you're very uncouth."
"What the hell does uncouth mean, smelly? I've been fighting a literal war for three days straight, of course, I'm going to stink!" Naruto yells as he glares at her.
The Rabbit Goddess just had her right twitch, "it means you're very rude."
"Oh, I'm sorry," Naruto then realized what he said. "Why the hell am I sorry, Dattebayo?!"
Pinching her nose Kaguya just looked down at him, "if Gods truly exist this is torture enough…"
"Well…" Naruto looks away, "I can't move…and you're not exactly any much better than I am."
"What are you suggesting, thief?" Kaguya inquires.
"I'm just saying either we float here in silence, possibly starve to death. Because you can't activate your third eye, thank you Sakura, and just complain about how much life completely sucks." Naruto then looked her right in the eye, "or we could just float here and make peace with ourselves and then starve to death."
"I don't like either scenario," Kaguya grumbled as she looked down at him. "Both end in something I much rather avoid."
"Coward," Naruto bashed her as he glared right at her. "You're a frigging coward, you're so scared of a challenger you tried to literally eat the world, and you even tried to kill your own children."
"Don't you know how much of a blessing a child is," Naruto growled as he felt anger boil inside of him. "In your name, I can name several dozen children that lost their lives, name a few more who were forced to be Jinchuuriki, and then we come back to you…how many?"
"I don't know what you're getting at…" before she could finish the death glare got to her, "thousands…"
"And there it is," Naruto just spat in her direction, but it just flopped back down on his face. "Eww…anyway, wanna know what my parents got?"
"Do I care?" Kaguya questioned him.
"One minute," her eyes looked right at him, "they got one minute. One minute before Black Zetsu put his manipulation of Obito to the fullest."
Naruto then just furrowed his eyes at her, "as much as I hate you, I think I pity you more."
"Oh?" She hums.
"I think I can see it, you were probably hurt so bad tha you never wanted to be hurt again. Which is why you ate the fruit. So that you can stop the pain…but in the end," Naruto sighed as he looked at the void. "You only created more."
Naruto bit his lip, "I grew up being hurt by others. Constantly, never-ending, most of my earliest memories was always someone walking in a room…checking my seal…and then just walking back out."
"The Sandaime Hokage, Jiji, as I called him at the beginning just dropped off living expenses. There was one time in my life I went an entire month without food from the village because some sorry bastard stole what little I had," Naruto then closed his and relaxed. "But I still fought to protect my village."
'Why?" Kaguya inquires as she started to feel something, "you don't make sense…you had all the power to…"
"Destroy everything," Naruto interjected. "Yeah, I could've easily met Kurama and just…go wild. Part of me every day for the longest time wished that he destroyed the entire village, but the very few friends I made…"
"Made me happy," Naruto remembered Ayame and Teuichi Ichiraku, and Iruka.
Chuckling, that's all she could hear before he looked at her, "mind telling me what's so funny?"
"Now that I think about it," he laughed. "My weakest Jutsu worked on you."
"And that would be?" Kaguya scuffs as she glared at him.
"Someone has a dirty mind," Naruto teases as he hinted at it.
"I…you…that…THAT WAS BECAUSE IT WAS COMPLETELY RANDOM!" She screams at him with her cheeks flustered, "who even does that during a fight, ignorant little fox child!"
"Dumb bunny," Naruto shot back, "I guess its irony that you lost to me, considering foxes eat rabbits Dattebayo."
She just sighs, "okay fine…you're right…I got distracted. Completely uncouth of you to give me a right hook afterward."
"Uncouth, sheesh just use normal words like rude." Naruto complains as he looked past her, "is that light?"
She flips over, staring up from the void, "it is…and…getting closer?"
"Well, I'll be damned, I just may get out of this yet." Naruto laughs before focusing, "that isn't light!"
"Huh?" she looks at him, "then what…did you hear that?! Who are you, what are you?! I am Kaguya Ōtsutsuki I am…"
She didn't even get to finish before the light hit her, it took the form a dragon that glowed purple that just snatched her in its jaws. Naruto was left mortified, he didn't even mean to reach out for her. The strangest thing there was no blood, no gore, just one minute of her being there and the next totally gone.
"Aw crap," Naruto chattered in fear. "I'm seriously going out as food, really Dattebayo!"
"We have judged you," Naruto flips over using all his will power, "Child of Hope."
A golden dragon flowed toward Naruto, his eyes widened as it opened its maws. He was powerless to stop it!
A silvery light filled his vision.
He felt cold air rushing over him, looking around he saw that he was falling. He almost wanted to celebrate, but the cold air made him rethink that celebration. It hit, reality did anyway. The blonde flips in the air, unable to control himself as he looked down to see a nearby river of sorts.
There was a heavy amount of sand all around him to boot, and he noticed that a broken moon hung high in the sky. Screaming as he fell, the blonde lands in the small oasis before floating back up to the top.
Floating there, he just looks up at the broken moon before closing his eyes.
'Kurama…' Naruto mentally calls out for his friend, 'where are you when I need you buddy, Dattebayo…"
The splashing and wind made the water flow him to its shoreline. He rests his head on the mud, laying there he fails to hear the shouting of some people.
Uzumaki Naruto was still alive!
