I do not own Naruto.
Dragons. Creatures of immense power, they existed on this universe, Naka, long before us. There are 11 types of dragons: Wyvern, Worm, Amphisbaena, Amphiptere, Hydra, Firedrake, Icedrake, Tatzelworm, Naga, Ourobouros, and Dragonet. They helped shape our universe from creating and maintaining the stars to making the mountains and seas. Of course, there was good and bad dragons. Good dragons only wanted what was best for our world while bad dragons wanted to destroy it and remake it. Their constant fighting destroyed Pangaea and split it into our continents. But when humans had been formed by God and left the garden of Eden, they only sought to abuse the dragon's power to help them. So God seeing the troubles of the dragons created two new universes for the dragons called Jōi and Shita. Jōi was created for dragons that were good and Shita was created for dragons that were bad. The fighting between, however, did not stop. The effects of their wars can be felt in our world because we are in the middle of these two universes. We can see the effects as natural disasters.
In all, there are 5 universes. Starting at the top:
Kō(Heaven)
Jōi
Naka
Shita
Hiku(Hell)
Beings of Naka can go to enter either Kō or Hiku, but cannot enter Jōi or Shita. Beings of Kō or Hiku can enter any place, but beings of Hiku cannot enter Jōi. Beings of Jōi or Shita can enter Naka, but not Kō or Hiku. Got it? But at times, this could cause problems. Dragons may cross over and be trapped or captured by humans. They were usually tamed to fight in wars or to keep peace. Humans that can tame or control dragons were called Dragon Lords. But dragons outlive humans by about 600 years at the least. So dragons outlive their dragon lord and go back to their home where they tell their friends, allies, and even enemies about what the humans will do. So they stopped all visiting to Naka in the human's 15 century. Since then humans had only legends on the power of dragons left for them. Contact was never remade until that fateful day when a being of Hiku visited Naka…
"Hurry! Get the Yondaime!"
"No, it's too late. RUN!"
A building collapsed under the weight of the Kyuubi's paw. The monster roared producing a sound no human has ever heard of. It blew everything around the beast away while putting terror in the people trying to fight it.
The Kyuubi is a giant fox with 9 tails. He is from Hiku and is attacking a place called Konoha, a hidden village. Konoha is a ninja village with a leader called the Hokage. The Hokage is the strongest ninja in the village which is what the ninja fighting the terror desperately needs.
Another crash was heard behind the ninja. A giant toad with a giant knife had landed on several buildings without injuring anyone. On top of this toad, a man with blond spiky hair with a white trench coat and a headband stood looking at the beast attacking his village.
"The Yondaime's here. He's here! Retreat!"
The giant toad looked up at the Yondaime. "You have a plan? Or are we going to wing it?"
The blond leader kept staring at the Kyuubi. "Just hold him long enough for me, alright Gambunta? I'm planning on doing the Shiki Fujin." The toad named Gambunta widened his eyes, but then smirked. "So, it's gotten that bad, has it."
He leaped toward the fox and landed on the left of it. He looked up and was hit in the face by one of its tails. He was thrown into the Hokage mountain creating dirt clouds. Gambunta got back up and jumped high. He aimed to land on the Kyuubi, but it hopped back. Then the Kyuubi let a chakra blast from its mouth and hit Gambunta.
Gambunta hit the ground hard and tumbled. He stopped when he hit the Hokage tower. "He's really starting to piss me off."
"Hey, I have a plan. Get behind the Kyuubi."
"Behind? Where all 9 tails are there?"
"Just DO IT!"
"Argh, fine. But my death will be on your hands." Gambunta jumped up high again and landed behind the fox. He caught the oncoming tails and held them in place. "Go, NOW!"
One second….
Two seconds….
Three seconds…. "Kid?"
There was no answer. The Kyuubi pushed itself out of the toad's grip and stepped forward toward the Hokage tower. The fox began to charge up a chakra blast but stopped when he heard, "Fuuin Jutsu: Shiki Fuujin(Dead Demon Imprisonment)"
The Kyuubi looked up and saw the Yondaime with his hands in a seal. Behind him was the one and only Shinigami, a being of Hiku that has the power to bring humans into Kō or Hiku. With a deathly and kind of creepy voice, he said, "Why have you summoned me, human"
"Seal the Kyuubi. I give my life in exchange as it dictates in the contract.:
"Hmmm, fine. Exchange accepted." The Shinigami reached its hand toward the Kyuubi. The Kyuubi ,sensing the threat, charged and blasted a chakra shot to the unworldly creature. The Shinigami backhanded the shot easily. "You will not deny me YOUR SOUL!" The Shinigami flew forward and stuck his hand in the Kyuubi's chest. He grabbed and started to pull the Kyuubi's soul out of the beast's body. The Kyuubi roared as it tried to pull back, but it was useless.
"Get ready. I'm almost ready to seal this thing in you."
The Yondaime faltered for a moment. "Wait, wait, wait. I'm not sealing that thing in me. I'm trying to seal it in my son."
'Son? The Shinigami stole a glance behind the blond Hokage and saw a baby wrapped in a blanket sleeping. 'Did he leave him there while he was fighting the Kyuubi? What…. Wait, did he say he was sealing the Kyuubi into that baby?
"You can't seal the Kyuubi into that baby alone. The malicious chakra would overtake him. You would just have a human Kyuubi in your village."
The Yondaime's eyes widened. "Wait, what? Then… WHAT DO WE DO?"
The Shinigami winced at the panicking of the Hokage. "Silence! I can seal something else to counterbalance his evil."
"What? Doesn't it need to equal the strength of Kyuubi? What has that kind of power?"
"a dragon."
The Yondaime's eyes widened again. "A d-dragon? Those creatures from legends?"
"Yes. But more specifically, a Amphiptere; a legless dragon with wings. He owes me a favor and spending 80 to 100 years in a boy isn't that bad to beings like him."
The Yondaime shakily nodded. "A-Alright." The Kyuubi when he heard dragon, he started to sweat. He really struggled against the Shinigami causing everything to vibrate under him. But still, it was no use. It was already done. The Shinigami pulled his soul out with one great heave. He then stuck his hand in the baby's stomach. A spiral appeared around the his hand representing the Kyuubi. He then using his other hand made some seals. A giant poof of smoke appeared. When it cleared, it revealed a golden dragon with no legs and had 4 wings. It seemed to radiate energy. It's eyes were a shining golden color that seemed to have the sun in them. All its teeth, horns, and talons were pure white.
"Why did you bring me to Naka? I was having such a nice nap."
"I need to use that favor. I need to seal you in this boy. He has the Kyuubi in him."
"The Kyuubi?" The dragon whistled. "Bit of a doozy you have on your hands. Fine. But all has been repaid."
The dragon dove into the spiral on the infant's stomach. He disappeared and the Shinigami pulled his hand back. There appeared a two pronged seal around the spiral and around that was another seal, a 8 pronged seal.
This was the last scene the Yondaime saw before falling and breathing his last breath. The Shinigami grabbed thin air and a blue wisp appeared in his hand. He brought it to his mouth and swallowed the soul. "Exchange completed."
The Shinigami faded away and went back to Hiku leaving the now awake and crying infant alone.
This should have been the last account of any being from Jōi or Shita appearing in Naka. The dragon in the blond jinchuuriki should have remained dormant for the rest of the blondie's life. But things don't happen as you plan it…
', wait where am I? Uzumaki Naruto found himself in a sewer. He was ankle deep in dark water that he did not want to know what was in there. "ANYONE HERE?", he yelled. He was answered with a "ROOOAAAAARRRRRR!" and a "Ah, shut it you big whiner."
Naruto sweatdropped. He wasn't really expecting an answer and he definitely wasn't expecting…. whatever that was. He really didn't want to stick around and meet the owner of that roar, but he wouldn't get out if he didn't. Naruto sighed. 'Only me. It's always only me when it comes to bad fates like this.
He walked for about a minute until he saw a room with a glowing red and golden light shining out of its doorway. He stepped through and saw a giant cage. He took a couple of steps to see what was inside, and jumped back before he was impaled by a giant claw. He then heard a deep chuckling. "It's finally nice to meet my tenant after all these years." Naruto squinted to see into the darkness and saw two giant red eyes. They were attached to a giant fox head and a fox body with 1..2..3..
"Ahh, I don't want to count. Okay, what fox has more than 1 tail? Umm, oh yeah the Kyuubi no Kitsune!"
The Kyuubi sweatdropped. What the hell was wrong with his tenant?
"Whoa, whoa, whoa. You should stop thinking. I would not have this place overheat. It's already bad enough we're in a sewer." Naruto looked at this newcomer and saw a serpent with wings, and horns, and talons, and uhhh.. 'What was it called again?
"I'm a dragon you idiot."
"Uhh, what's a dragon doing here? Where is here anyways?"
"First, I'm here to make sure furry's chakra doesn't corrupt you." The Kyuubi growled at its nickname. "And second, we're in your mind."
"My mind. Huh. Wait, what happened? Why am I in here? I should be out there. Not here. Did something happen? Oh no, I hit my head and now I'm a vegetable, ain't I?"
"No, no, no. Nothing bad happened so shut the hell up. Don't you remember, Orochimaru and his seal?"
"Oh yeah! That snake bastard! He hit me in the stomach with flaming fingers. "
"He put a seal on you. A 5 pronged seal. It's going to mess your chakra system up if we don't remove it."
"WHAT! Can you take it off?"
"If the Kyuubi, you, and I release all our chakra at once, we could overload it. But there are side effects."
"What side effects?"
"My chakra is blocking the Kyuubi's chakra and will have to follow it as it courses through your body. But since he is now part of your chakra system and I'm just bystander, my chakra will be left behind. So you would dragon chakra in your system. Which is bad."
"Why is it bad? Dragon chakra sounds cool!"
"Yeah… except for the fact that dragon chakra is poisonous."
"Ohh, then what do we do?"
"Become a Dragon Lord."
"A… what?"
"A dragon lord is a human that can control dragons. They are impervious to dragon chakra and can use it to their will. As long as you're nice, but the chakra may affect your personality."
"I'm nice, and a weird chakra won't change that. Now let's do this. I want this seal off me."
"Patience. Seriously, you need some. Okay, Kyuubi ready…"
"Wait, why should I help you?"
"Do you want me to talk with the Shinigami when you get back to Hiku?"
Naruto raised his hand. "Wait, what's Hiku?"
The dragon sighed. He explained the 5 different universes that exist. I am not going to write a conversation explaining it. And I'm the author, so I have the power. So ha!
Naruto's head was spinning from the info. "Wait, where are you from them?"
"Me? I'm from Jōi. I'm one of the good dragons. In fact, I was the one that created your sun."
Naruto's jaw hit the floor. The dragon was laughing really hard. "Well, I told you I needed to counterbalance furry's chakra, didn't I? That means I have to be at least his level."
Naruto was just baffled. He learned so much and all the info seemed like it came out of a myth. "Hey, before we do this, what's your name?"
The dragon cocked it's head to one side. "Well, we didn't really need names back in Jōi, but call me Kiro."
"Kiro, huh? Well, Kiro, let's do this."
Kiro looked at the Kyuubi and nodded. He then looked back at Naruto and said, "You go first."
Naruto nodded and released as much chakra as he could at a constant rate. The Kyuubi went next shaking the sewer and then Kiro went making cracks on the walls. The entire room was flooded with a bright light.
"AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH! Stop it. I'm sorry. I won't ever attack you again so please… STOP!, pleaded Abumi Zaku, a member of the Hidden Sound team.
Sasuke had his foot on top of his back and had each arm in each of his hands. "You're very fond of these arms, aren't you?" He then pulled until everyone heard a crack and Zaku's cries of pain.
Sasuke looked at the last member, the female of the team. "You're next." He then felt a pair of arms hug his body.
"Please, Sasuke-kun. Stop this. This isn't you.", said the crying Sakura.
Sasuke stopped and the curse mark glowed red and began to recede, but.. "What do you know about me? I need power and that is exactly what Orochimaru gave me. I need this power so LEAVE ME ALONE!" He backhanded Sakura and she was sent flying into a tree. She looked up with teary eyes. "Someone… help… him… ANYONE!"
Rock Lee was struggling to get up, but soon fell back down. "Neji, my youthful teammate. Stop Uchiha-san, please."
Neji activated his Byakugan. He got ready to jump in, but he then looked at the trunk of the tree. "It seems there is no need for me to interfere."
There was a sudden blast of chakra emanating from the trunk. There was a blinding light that seemed to match the sun's brightness. The light died down, and Naruto stood there in his orange kill me now jumpsuit. But he seemed different. He seemed to be radiating… power? His hair glowed golden instead of being a regular blond. He looked up at Sasuke and surprised everyone with his eyes. They were still the cerulean blue but there were streaks of yellow starting from the pupil, stretching to the whites of his eyes like rays of the sun. "Yo, teme. It seems I can't leave you alone for even 10 minutes. I take a nap and what do I see? My teammate hitting my other teammate. Pathetic, Sasuke. Just pathetic."
Sasuke clenched his fist. "Pathetic. Who's pathetic, you dead last loser!" He, using the power of the curse seal, sped toward Naruto and threw a punch. Naruto stood there, unmoving. The punch connected, but Naruto stayed in place. Sasuke withdrew his hand and saw it was bruised. In Naruto's mind he heard Kiro say, "First ability of a Dragon Lord: Dragon Skin! Now, second ability of a Dragon Lord: Enhanced strength!" Naruto punched Sasuke in the stomach and sent him flying into a tree, creating a crater and knocking the tree over. The curse seal receded back to Sasuke's neck.
Everyone looked at Naruto, surprised at the sudden strength. Especially Sakura. 'What happened to Naruto? Where is the orange idiot that was there before?
