A/N : This is a REMAKE of the original. For those who has read the original please tell me if this is better or not. Because I still have the old file on my computer, I can easily re-upload the 'better' one. Of course what I'm trying to do now is to remake it so that it is closer to the anime, instead of total fiction of course.

Somehow, 2 worlds began to collide and join. And whilst their battles are being fought, a new war has started. A war that would involve both parties to help as their enemies become stronger and stronger...

The blonde stared at the passing clouds, perhaps he could understand Shikamaru's fondness of clouds. But patience was never a virtue in his book, he sat up irritably and paused at the Konoha gate, as if expecting Sakura or Sai or even Kakashi to appear to call him on his next mission. Ever since he had reunited with Sasuke, even if it was for a moment, his desire to convince him to come back to Konoha burned harder.

The earth trembled.

His eyes widened and his head spun round automatically. Naruto narrowed his eyes slightly, and blinked as a cloud of dust blew past him. Curious, he got up, ignoring the presentation of his clothing, moving further and further away from Konoha. As he noticed the intensity of dust and sand in the air, he moved quicker and quicker, fingers already grasping a kunai.

A distortion.

Naruto flew back a few metres, avoiding a blow that came from the midst. Naruto narrowed his eyes further and managed to notice the distortion in the dust and air. His eyes darted to the ground, where it trembled slightly as he could make out something invisible was moving closer. He froze for a moment; around him trees began to break like branches, and deep cries of rage and hatred were emitted from random spots in the forest.

"What the..?"

Lightning reflexes and acute sense pulled his arms up as a shield as a strong driving force targeted his head. He tried his hardest to visualize, and even attempted to use chakra control, but could see nothing but a distorted figure of beasts twice his size and could even faintly see one as gigantic as a skyscraper. Concentrating, he dodged another punch directed to him; Naruto was out of options.

"Tajuu Kage Bunshin No Jutsu!"

'If they're hiding then lets see what they do when I attack them all at once!' About 50 copies of the orange shirted blonde appeared out of nowhere. Each one mirrored the same determination that was reflected on the original, and with only a pause to grin, the mass of shadow clones charged forward towards the multiple distortions and began to use a variety of attacks, from the standard kicks and punches, to the swift chakra embedded shurikens to standard Rasengans.

-

"There!"

A thin brown haired man appeared out of a black hole. As the black gate seemed to shrink behind him, a wild expression appeared as he stared below him. His hair was messed up, having his left side of his hair to be neatly tucked in a white skeletal-like mask and his right side spiking up. He was neatly dressed with the standard white robes and had a rather thin overall body; his left arm being slightly bigger due to the skeletal-like armor around it.

His grin stretched as he moved speedily towards the estimated 30 remaining blondes, halting the Menos Grandes in the process. His left arm, uninhibited by the skeletal armor that covered it, rested on the hilt of his blade as he moved towards the clones.

Naruto stopped as he noticed another explosion of dust. He watched in horror as one by ones his clones were punched by a fast moving force and ultimately disappeared. But he wasn't a coward. Years of training and the magnitude of his skill had made sure of that. Gripping his kunai harder than ever, he slowly embraced and directed the wind with his chakra. His eyes widened for a moment as a flash of distortion and white robes was processed but proceeded to block the attack with both hands.

Recoil pushed him back relatively far as he regained his position. Naruto expressed annoyance against his invisible enemy, and although he was well aware of the possible other destructive forces, he could feel that this specific invisible enemy was riling up the others.

Because of Naruto's disadvantage, he tamed his annoyance, having no target he could not initiate the attack, something which had almost become habitual for him in any battle. He could only rely on his reflexes and keen senses for this battle. With the slight movement of dust being kicked off, Naruto could tell his opponent was in motion. Jumping slightly to one side he directed a random punch towards his invisible enemy.

Unfortunately, luck did not choose him this time as he missed and took a full hit into his stomach.

Naruto flew back but stood up once more, he was getting angry.

"Kage Bunshin No Jutsu!"

4 more of Naruto appeared as the five proceeded to tackle him. But all of them stopped when they felt the wind blow against them. Spinning around, one of the Naruto clones was sliced in half and disappeared, giving away a dangerous fact. Apparently the enemy was using a blade. 'Even with invisibility advantage he still uses a blade? As if that's going to help!', Naruto thought to himself.

The remaining 4 charged and although the enemy made quick work out of the first 2, the third one muddled through a few attacks before getting cut on the left shoulder. As the last one disappeared, Naruto once again refined his kunai with his wind chakra and blocked as many strikes he could. After being slashed up twice on both arms, Naruto jumped back in defense.

He gritted his teeth in frustration, he felt his breathing become ragged and rather violent, as he wiped off the blood on his shoulders he could see the white rope, the thin blade, and even some of the man's facial features. With only the picture of his half skeletal helmet, Naruto convinced himself not to use the Kyuubi's chakra.

"Kage Bunshin No Jutsu!"

For a moment his ears caught a sentence. But he ignored the fact as the 4 more shadow clones that appeared like magic in the smoke charged forwards. The more he blinked the more he thought he could see the enemy's white robes, but he was still unsure. The shadow clones were getting used to the sound of a blade suddenly slicing them but they were still inferior to the almost overwhelming opponent.

Making them disappear in clouds of smoke, the enemy sped through and aimed the blade directly for Naruto's heart. Perhaps luck had not abandoned Naruto totally as he saw the blade. This time the blade was not flickering as he saw the wild hair in the wind, the skull helmet on his head, the katana and the long white robes. With his sudden stroke of good luck he skillfully slid his finger out of the kunai hole and allowed the katana to pierce the hole. Of course, neither broke and as the man disappeared with a blink of an eye, Naruto was convinced he had him, and that was all he needed.

Multiple arms and legs emerged from the hardy soil and grabbed on to the invisible enemy. The one who was in front of the enemy held the kunai in place and locked the katana as more and more shadow clones seemed to materialize and jump on the enemy to bind him to place. A grunt could be heard but was soon muted by the swirling sounds of a Rasengan.

"Taaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaake THIS! RASENGAN!"

The real Naruto jumped and from the brilliant sky struck down on the invisible enemy. Although doubt filled his heart initially, he smiled victoriously when he felt contact and saw nothing in front of his Rasengan. He could hear his cries and would constantly see the skull and white robes, blinding him each time he blinked.

But when the Rasengan diminished and probably grinded the enemy's body, Naruto circled round to see a towering black beast with a white mask coming straight down at him. His eyes widened as he blocked with his arms but felt no impact.

He relaxed his arms and saw the bright orange haired person standing in front of him. His mouth agape when his eyes fell onto the gigantic blade, somewhat as long as Zabuza's and Kisame's. He ignored everything else, even though the boy's contrasting hair colour stood out the most. He moved forward slightly in an attempt to get some attention but was shocked when the boy turned around.

Both of them jumped back and with another blink of an eye, Naruto could see Konoha but nothing else. He scratched his head and expressed his own confusion to the incident. .

"Is anyone there?"

Ichigo turned towards the demanding blonde. He stared inquisitively as the boy repeated his question. Ichigo was the first to move as he closed the gap between him and the boy whose height only reached Ichigo's eyes.

Naruto fell back on the ground and looked up at the Shinigami.

"W-What the hell? Wh-Who are you?"

"Huh? You can see me?"

"Of course I can see you! I'm not blind!"

Naruto cocked his head to one side to see if there was anyone else other than him. Almost instantly however, the tall boy with the over sized sword darted his eyes to the same direction and in one swift motion, swung his blade 360 degrees so that it slashed the towering black beast. Naruto felt his jaw drop before he watched as the man jumped to incredible heights and began clearing the field of towering beasts. Once he was done however, Naruto picked himself up.

"Who are you and where did you come from!?"

"I'm a Shinigami."

Naruto's brain began to ache.

"Shinigami..?"

"It means Death God. My job is to kill Hollows. Hollows are the monsters you've seen just now. But usually normal people can't see us, let alone defeat a full fledged arrancar."

"Arran...car?"

"That was the man in white that you killed."

Naruto turned his head round just to see the last bit of his body disintegrate. He felt even more confused as more questions arose in his head. He turned back to the new discovery just to see him walk away calmly.

"Wait!"

Ichigo turned round in an irate manner but entertained him anyway. Naruto began asking question after question which seemed to annoy Ichigo; but Naruto did not take the hint. It began to dawn to Ichigo however, that this was precisely normal. Ichigo began to see images of the first time he met Rukia, he was bewildered as well and the only reason why he was not as chatty as the idiot in front of him was because Rukia had used Bakudo on him. Ichigo probably would have too if he actually knew how to use it.

Ichigo let out an obvious sigh before proceeding to explain to Naruto about the hidden world. After all, if he could see Ichigo meant he had a huge volume of spiritual energy. After about 4 hours of explanation, Naruto finally understood Shinigamis, Arrancar, Hollows and Soul Society. He even knew about Aizen whom Ichigo tried as hard as he could to make him sound as minor as possible.

"Well its useless for me to bring you back to the village then right?"

"Yeah. Perhaps we might meet again."

"I'm Naruto by the way, Uzumaki Naruto. BELIEVE IT!"

"Heh I'm Kurosaki Ichigo."

Ichigo smiled before he jumped to the sky.

"Naruto huh..? Reminds me of....me..."

A/N : How did you liked the rewritten version? If you guys couldn't see the minor difference, I wiped out Rukia from this chapter.
