On with the show
Fate is a mystery, but one that will make the end justify the means- Crimson Revenant
Konohagakure, a very prosperous village founded by the two descendants of the legendary Sage of the Six Paths: Senju Hashirama and Uchiha Madara; both clan heads were exactly opposites. Yin and Yang, Light and Dark, Ashura and Indra. Even though they had a heated rivalry, they were like the best friends; they held respect for each other, a bond, but different beliefs.
Or so everyone thought.
Senju Hashirama was a kind man, selfless, cheerful, he was like a beam of light in the world, like nothing could bring him down. Serious when needed, but always wanted peace and believed that each person deserved a second chance. His brother however...
Senju Tobirama was the closest thing to an Uchiha. Reserved, quiet, and extremely serious. Very disciplined, and whenever he had to kill, he would do so without even blinking. This of course caused some controversy between him and his brother; one last thing is the fact that he's actually the man who never trusted an Uchiha, Madara even less. Speaking of which...
Uchiha Madara was just like Tobirama, but more quiet, grumpy, and even more serious; his pride however has no boundaries, but being him, many things can be left unsaid due to his secrecy. He always believed that peace is obtained through oppression, pain, fear, control, an illusion.
Or at least, that's what people thought that he believed.
Thus, is why we're here, at the Valley of End, where a completely wounded Hashirama was gazing at a crater, a lone figure, completely covered in blood and wounds; this was Madara, who was barely holding himself as he glared at his 'brother'.
"Why Madara? Why did it have to come to this?" Hashirama asked, pain clear in his eyes, as the Uchiha patriarch just slightly chuckled.
"I-It's simple, my d-de-ear f-ff-friend. Because... You're naïve..." He responded, before he gave out his last breath and closed his eyes, as his heart stopped beating. Shaking his head, the Shodaime Hokage turned around, and started to walk away, but not before he glanced back.
"Goodbye Madara. Hope you can reach the peace that you wanted in the afterlife" He whispered, and left.
Once Hashirama was out of sight, a black mist gathered around the crater, as a cloaked figure appeared, a smile visible on his face.
'Madara was right. You really are naïve Hashirama' The cloaked figure thought. Extending his right arm, more black mist started to gather in front of him, as a black portal suddenly opened, and from it, came a dreaded figure. It was a boy, no older than 19, standing at a shocking 6'5"; starting with his hair, which was ebony black and messy, with a big fringe with a red tip, and atop of it was a smaller fringe with the same red tip. On each side of his hair ran two red lightnings that conjuncted behind his head and atop of it, with red tips in the back fringes. His face was chiseled, with strong lean features, alongside his tanned skin, and what looks like four whisker marks on each cheek; however, his most prominent features, were the two fangs that stood out, and his scarlet, pupiless eyes. His clothes consisted of a dark gray undershirt with the Kanji for Sora (Void) in dark red, underneath an ebony black customized trench coat that had the underside of the sleeves colored red, along with the pockets, with two red lightnings running across the waist and thighs like belts. Another interesting fact is that, it had the Kanji for Shi (Death) on the back glowing red, and pulsing like veins; along with the Kanji for Oni (Demon) on his left shoulder and the Kanji for Yami (Darkness) on his right shoulder. He also wore gray pants that were held by a pouch filled with seals, and holding the sheath of a long Nodachi, its hilt wrapped by black and red bandages, the tsuba taking the form of two scythes that stood opposite to each other, forming a black rectangle.
And lastly, he wore black combat boots with the bottom being colored red and red striped. That man, was the man cursed with the power of destruction; that man, was the man that destroyed a complete world in his angst; that man, was the descendant of the first Revenant that was ever known; that man, was the man that wielded the incarnation of horrors; that man, was the man that wields the Destruction Incarnate's greatest creation, that man...
Was Alex Sawyers Prower.

ALEX THE CRIMSON REVENANT
SEASON 13: THE KAMI NO SORAGAN
Disclaimer: I own nothing but OC's and plot
(End Song)
CHAPTER 1: REVENANCE
As Alex looked around, he noticed that he was inside of a crater, where two figures could be seen, one was floating, and the other was nothing but a corpse.
"Damn, who wasted this place?" He asked to the air, but then the cloaked figure spoke.
"Perhaps if you look at the corpse then you'll realize who did this" He spoke in amusement. When Alex looked at him, he recognized the Omega symbol and smiled.
"Andros, of course you had to call me here. So, what's up?" Alex answered casually still with that smile, which the figure, now known as Andros, returned.
"While it is good to see you, you really should check the corpse Alex, he's very important in the future, which is why I am here, along with someone else" He replied, his face turning serious at the end. When Alex noticed it, he saw the corpse of Uchiha Madara, noticing every detail that Andros placed in his psyche about his appearance.
Madara was a fair-skinned man with spiky, black hair that had a slight blue tint to it that was red due to the blood that was now being washed away by the rain. He was currently wearing a crimson samurai like armor with dark blue ANBU pants that were completely torn and bloodied, courtesy of the recent battle that he had with Hashirama, his face had multiple bruises and cuts along with wood pieces that embedded into his skin, but it was when Alex removed the armor that he realized why Madara wa so important.
Right where his heart should be, was a mark that originally looked like a spike, but now it looked like a scythe.
Suddenly, there was a flash in the crater, where both Alex and Andros looked at it and the light faded, revealing a man that had black hair that was slicked back, skin as white as snow, with dark blue eyes that shone with mirth and power, which made him look more menacing as a sudden pressure fell onto the field, but both were unaffected by it; the man was wearing a business suit which consisted of a white shirt with a black and blue striped tie underneath a black blazer, black social pants with professional shoes, and he was carrying a briefcase with him. When the man saw Alex and Andros, he smiled.
"Alex, Andros, good to see you here; I suppose that you came here for the same reason as I did, right?" He said, and then, both Alex and Andros returned the gesture.
"It is good to see you here Dyllos, I suppose this has to deal with him right?" Andros spoke, pointing at Madara's Corpse, which Dyllos nodded.
"That's right, while I should be at the Soul Palace to make sure the balance stays and let my servants handle this, it is surely impressive what a Kage Bunshin can do, gotta thank this world for that; that, and his soul is very important" He answered.
Did I forget to mention that Dyllos is actually the Soul King? Then I apologize; yes, Dyllos is in fact the Soul King, considered as God to many cults, but in fact, he's one of the "Diezma Revenants", which is a group made of the ten "Strongest Revenants", which is mostly composed of the first Revenants ever due to their eternal strength, with Andros being the strongest and Dyllos being the former second strongest. Eons after his creation, Dyllos was tasked by Fate to become the very thing that keeps the multiverse hanging, thus, making him very important; however, his skills were getting dull to sitting for so many years, so, he's now one of the weakest of the "Diezma Revenants", until he gets his heir to replace him, which Alex recognized that he still had long ways to go and now both are friends.
"So I suppose that you came here to make sure nothing bad happens, right?" Alex asked, which Dyllos nodded.
"His soul still hasn't left his body, which means that we got this chance, we cannot wait for it any longer" He replied.
They all nodded to each other as both Andros and Dyllos stepped aside, leaving Alex alone with Madara's corpse. Suddenly, Alex whispered some inaudible words and he was then enveloped by a white aura, as his trench coat and his hair turned white, with the latter now growing to waist length; his hand then was enveloped by a black wispy aura, the irises of his eyes turning pitch black and his pupils turning red; then, in the bat of an eyelash, his hand pierced Madara's chest, and then took it out, fully bloodied and with Madara's heart in it. He stared at it for a second, before crushing it, some blood spilling into his face, and let the organ fall into the ground, as the blood in his hand and his face absorbed into his skin. Everything went still, until, an unmistakeable sound was heard...
Ba-bump...
... a heartbeat...
Ba-bump, Ba-bump...
... two heartbeats, and so on. Slowly, Madara's heart started to repair itself, filling itself full of blood and turning black, and then, it started to beat at least 4 times a second, 'till slowing down and being enveloped with a dark blue aura; the heart slowly started to float into the hole in Madara's chest andfixed itself inside his ribcage, and the flesh tissue started to regrow, sealing the gaping hole that now didn't even look like someone pierced it. His wounds also started to heal, each one emanating a dark blue aura, and then leaving wisps as each one closed, leaving him in a somewhat restful state, his chest slowly rising and falling, until, he opened his eyes.
Madara's POV
If there was something I was sure about, was that Heaven only exists to the pure, even if they killed, and I am anything but pure; that, and the existence of the Revenants. Now, you must be wondering how do I know of the Revenants right? Well, I actually learned only its legend; saying about being the enforcers of Fate, to bring balance to reality and beings of ultimate power, from a priest in the last years of the Clan Wars; he honestly looked like a nutjob, wearing black priest robes with a blood red cloak, blood red eyes that screamed insanity, and yet, he sounded very intelligent. Somehow, I felt something stir inside me when he told me about the Revenants, almost as if craving for release, but still, too weak to take a stand; after that, there wasn't a single day that I would stop thinking about that legend, and the more I thought about it, the stronger that feeling got, to the point it became a voice, a female one.
"... release me... RELEASE ME ONCE AND FOR ALL!"
One day I had that dream; it was pure darkness, except that angelic, yet strong voice claiming to be freed; ever since, I wanted to find that priest to learn more, and in turn, separating myself more from my family and Hashirama ever so slightly; right after Hashirama and me founded Konohagakure, as I was on a mission of reconnaissance, I found the priest going to the same place I was tasked to scout, and talked to him more. I learned many things about that legend, one being that anybody could be a Revenant, and that there are four classes of a Revenant belonging to a hierarchy; the first one being Guardian Class, which in ninja terms could be 'till Med-Jounin as Hashirama would put in the Shinobi system; the second being Master Revenant, around S-Rank Shinobi; the third one being Grand Revenant, basically being the power level of Hashirama and me, or High-Kage as announced; and lastly there's Grandmaster Revenant, easily the most powerful Revenant class, being considered that the strongest Grandmaster Revenant can be as powerful as Kami himself. I asked the priest if I could possibly be one, and he quickly answered with a maybe. I was curious, and asked him how could I be sure about being one? His response was... cryptic, to say the least.
"Oh, that is an answer only a Revenant has youngling; either that, or the end of the largest -and at the same time- shortest road in existence. Fret not however, because even in the aftermath you could have a chance"
I never understood what that priest meant, but it seems that the geezer was right, because right after I died, I only saw darkness, and then I saw a woman; she stood at my own height, the same spiky black hair with blue tint that I have, a heartshaped face with creamy colored skin, she had tears streaming down from her charcoal eyes, wearing a blood red kimono with black tomoes around it that showed a slight amount of cleavage, tied with a black obi, and bare feet. She immediately threw herself at me, shocking me at what was going on, as she cried on my shoulder; I don't know what possessed me, but I instantly wrapped my arms around her waist, soothing her with my arm as I let her release her emotions. After a couple of minutes or so to me, she let go, a smile on her face, making me slight blush -you can say whatever you want, but even so I am a male, and as such I have my moments- and she giggled.
"Thank you" She spoke, her angelic voice soft, unlike the other times that she was boisterous, confusing me.
"For what?" I wanted to ask more, but then I saw my form fading, and saw her smile, as I heard her last words before I disappeared.
"For releasing me after so long"
So imagine my surprise when I opened my eyes to see that I was in the same crater I died, with three other male figures. One seemed covered by a cloak with the Omega symbol a top of the hood, another male looking like a businessman with some strange clothing, and lastly a teenager with a serious obsession with black and red and a Nodachi strapped to his left hip. As I slowly rose up, I looked at my chest, seeing something that shocked me.
A mark, resembling a western sword emerging from a spiralling sea.
"Welcome back to the World of the Living, Uchiha Madara" Spoke the teenager with a smirk, which I returned with a chuckle.
"Yeah, it seems that those legends were true, after all" I replied, making the three raise an eyebrow.
"Ara? What are you talking about?" Spoke the businessman, which I looked at him in amusement.
"The Revenants, after all, I can feel it inside of the three of you" I spoke.
This made the teen actually grin before he laughed out loud, the only sound inside the crater being his laughter; after a while, he was holding his stomach, trying to recover from his laughing fit and looked at me with an excited glint in his eyes.
"Incredible, a Revenant Sensor, there hasn't been one since my bro's girlfriend, but you're right, Madara; all of us are Revenants, and now, so are you" He spoke, the grin still present on his face.
It was then that I noticed that they somehow knew me, but I didn't, so I decided to be polite to the three of them, not even knowing what that introduction would affect in the future.
"Forgive me for my rudeness, my name, as you might know, is Uchiha Madara, former Head of the Uchiha Clan of Konohagakure, pleasure to meet you" I said, giving them a formal bow, which they, including the teen, returned.
"Pleasure to meet you Madara, I am Dyllos, the one in the cloak is Andros, and the kid-" The businessman, now known as Dyllos, introduced himself and the cloaked man, and was about to introduce the teen, until the latter interrupted him.
"I can introduce myself perfectly you old geezer, thank you" He said, making Dyllos grumble under his breath, with Andros patting on the back. The teen suddenly took my hand and shook it.
"My name's Alex Sawyers Prower, known as the Crimson Revenant to popular belief, but in the Pantheons I go through another name..." The teen, now known as Alex, spoke, and at the end, he smirked before he continued, shocking me, and freezing me with genuine terror, terror beyond the likes of when Mito is pissed.
"... Dominus Gor"
117 Years Later
Konohagakure, the Hidden Shinobi Village from Hi no Kuni, and the strongest Hidden Village of the Five Elemental Nations. And now, one of the most powerful Kages in existence, Minato Namikaze, the Yondaime Hokage, was worried.
His wife, Kushina Uzumaki, Nidaime Jinchuuriki of the Kyuubi, had entered in labor, as her screams could be heard throughout the cave. Her breath was uneven, her body ached like hell had come upon her, her heart was racing. Minato had his hand above hers, reassuring her that everything would be okay while also checking the seal and making sure it is stable.
"Push! Push! I can see the head, just a bit more!" Said Biwako Sarutobi, who was in charge of the delivery of the babies, her voice expressing hope and faith.
With more determination, the Aka no Shi (Red Death) pushed, releasing a scream out of pain, which was soon followed by relief, and the cry of a baby.
Naruto was born.
Smiling like never, both parents held the baby, as Kushina got ready to nurse him for the first time.
"Look Minato-kun, our little Naruto, Naru-chan is born" She whispered, and the Kiiroi Senkou (Yellow Flash) nodded in agreement.
"He is. I'm just so glad" He added, softly caressing his son's head, the happiness that he felt was so bright that nothing could take it down.
Not for long.
Suddenly, inside the cave, space seemed to warp, as a figure appeared, wearing a black cloak, wearing a white spiralled mask with only the right eye visible, which showed the Sharingan, making Minato stand up, feeling the faint KI that the figure was leaking.
"Hand over the Jinchuuriki, or the kid dies" He spoke, revealing a bundle on his arms, revealing Naruto, who had a Kunai to his throat, making him cry, and the older blonde immediately got up.
"L-look, let's just calm down, okay?" Minato said, his hands up trying to calm the mysterious man, to only make him chuckle.
"Speak for yourself, Yondaime Hokage, I am perfectly calm" The figure said, and he tilted his head to the side as a Kunai flew past him, raising a covered eyebrow.
"Did you really expect me to get hit by that?" He asked mockingly, but the blonde male just smirked.
"Who said I was aiming at you?" He said, and disappeared in a flash. Suddenly, Naruto disappeared from the figure's grasp and was in Minato's, who had calmed down Naruto's cries.
"There, there, you aren't in danger anymore. Daddy's here" He said, rocking the bundle lightly, but the figure then laughed.
"Hehe, are you so certain?" He said with a smirk that was hidden by his mask. Minato then took the blanket to see it was marred with Explosive Tags, and quickly threw it away, when, the blanket was suddenly encased in what looked like an ink cocoon that soon exploded, but yet was contained. Minato smirked while the figure raised an eyebrow.
"Interesting, how is it possible that something as ink can contain a bunch of fully powered Explosive Tags?" He wondered aloud, but Minato just kept smirking. The figure just shook his head.
"Either way. This isn't important, but..." He drawled, and then grabbed Kushina and he warped reality, teleporting himself and the Uzumaki away. Minato wasn't fast enough to reach them, so he went past them, and when he stopped, he placed Naruto on the ground, and screamed. When he was done, he felt a hand on his shoulder, and when he looked up, he saw a figure with pale skin, black hair with a blue tint to it that was spikier than his, with charcoal eyes that were now red with a ring around the pupil and three tomoe spinning on each eye. Minato was surprised.
"Tou-san?" He asked, and the figure was now revealed, showing Madara, who didn't look like he aged at all, and smiled.
"Sup, Sochi" He said, making Minato smile with him. Though, that only lasted for a few seconds until he was reminded of the situation, and shot up, distress clear in his eyes.
"Tou-san, Kushina-chan was kidnapped!" He yelled, making Madara narrow his eyes, until they widened, and they had a look of suspicion.
"How did her kidnapper look?" He asked, trying to confirm his suspicions, and much to his dismay, his son confirmed them.
"He was wearing a black cloak and had a white spiraled mask with one eye socket that had a Sharingan in it, must be an Uchiha" Minato answered. Madara groaned in annoyance, and sighed.
"I know who he is. He was a former disciple of mine, whom I was training so things could go along the plan" He said, and Minato narrowed his eyes this time.
"Which part?" He asked, and Madara relented.
"Tsuki no Me-Keikaku"
Minato almost exploded, but then, a set of words came to his mind, they looked like they belonged to a hermit that has seen all of life; well, it was somewhat close
One day, you'll have to betray those you love; not because of selfishness, but because there are things that need to happen, and sometimes, to bring peace, to save lives, you must dirty your hands" Those were the words that came to his mind; Minato sighed as he nodded, already getting used to the idea.
"I see, then we must find them now, and if he already released the Kyuubi, then seal her again. But where would he teleport?" Minato asked, and Madara nodded, already planning to use Kamui, until another voice answered.
"They're currently atop the Hokage Monument" Said the voice, and when they turned around, they saw Alex standing there, his face serious, and they nodded. Wordlessly, Madara grabbed ahold of his son and teleported themselves via Kamui while Alex disappeared with a flicker with a black and red misty trail.
The masked figure was now standing atop the Sandaime's head with Kushina slumped over his shoulders, and then he set her down inside an array of seals, all of which were lighting up, and then he cut his palm. Kushina was watching all of this weakly, and raised her head as much as she could and looked at the masked man in disgust.
"M-Minat-to-kun... h-he w-wwi-will stop you" She said, and the masked man looked at her, before he chuckled.
"I doubt that. When I release the Kyuubi, he'll have to be worried for the safety of this village and for your little son, if he can take care of both by himself, then I can safely call him Kami... but, we all know he's only human" He replied, as the seals started to glow brighter, and Kushina felt a searing pain in her stomach, and watched as red Youki flowed from the seal on her and into the air, screaming atop of her lungs. It continued for a few minutes, until she slumped onto the floor, panting heavily as she heard a roar, and saw nine flowing tails from afar.
"K-Kauri-c-chan" She whispered, as the cloaked man smirked behind his mask, and disappeared via Kamui. Just then, Minato and Madara appeared via Kamui, and the blonde male quickly ran to his wife's aid, while Alex just arrived with a flicker. Minato held Kushina's body soothingly, and hugged her as she slowly started to see clearly.
"M-Minato-k-kun" She whispered, and he only soothed her back.
"Shh, I know, I know. I'm here" He said, and she looked at him with as much strength as she could.
"Kauri-chan, she's been released, now she'll attack the village" She whispered, and he cursed under his breath, but he smiled at her.
"Don't worry, everything will be fine. You just rest, it'll all be over, soon" He told her, and she nodded, almost immediately falling asleep. Minato gently put her down, and looked at Alex.
"Do it now, Alex, before she wakes up" He told her, and the boy nodded.
Quickly walking up to her body, his hands got engulfed in a black and red wispy aura, and he gently touched her abdomen, her body being engulfed by it, and then, it started to shrink until it became a purple sphere with red outlines; it quickly entered Alex's palm as it glowed, and then it faded. The three males looked at each other when the deed was done, then Alex spoke.
"Minato, tell all of the Shinobi in your ranks including the Sandaime to evacuate the civilians. Hashirama will provide protection to them, and Madara, go and stop your disciple, I'll fight the Kyuubi" He said, and Madara nodded as he left with a Kamui. Minato however looked unsure.
"Are you sure about this Alex-nii? I know that you're strong, but so is Kauri-chan, and a rampaging Bijuu is no joke" He told his surrogate elder brother -ironic-, butAlex just smiled at him.
"Don't worry, Otouto, I'll be fine, just evacuate the village" He replied. Minato nodded before he left in a yellow flash. Alex just kept looking at the village, looking at the visage of the Kyuubi no Youko, until he felt a magic communication circle in his ear, which he quickly placed a finger on it.
"Report" He quickly said, and from the other line roars could be heard as well as explosions.
"Brother, sealing of the Yonbi has started, soon enough the Yonbi will be within Konoha's territory" Spoke the person, which was a male, and Alex smirked.
"Good, keep it up Ashura, once it is over, contact me soon enough" He said, and the circle faded, until another one, this time yellow, appeared on his ear.
"Hey Love, just so you know, sealing of the Gobi has started as well, soon enough this cutie will be within the city walls, just don't cause a mess, kay?" The voice, distinctively a female, spoke, and Alex just growled with a grin.
"Excellent, but be careful Charle, and don't spend much energy on it, because only in a few years we'll spend it" He replied, and the female, now known as Charle, just laughed.
"Oh, you beast, can't wait for it" She said, before the circle faded as well, until another one, a green one, appeared.
"Alex, sealing of the Rokubi has started as well, estimated time for it to finish is around 20 minutes" Spoke another female voice, and Alex nodded.
"Copy that Frankie, and 20 minutes is just what I need" And with that, the circle faded, and he smirked.
"Time for the world to meet the Crimson Revenant and his Red Queen" He said, and disappeared in a flicker.
On with the show
For the Sandaime Hokage, Sarutobi Hiruzen, this was not his day, first there were some issues with his son again, then his wife just barges through the door saying that Kushina, Minato and their child are in danger, then it is later on that he sees that the Kyuubi was released from its seal, which is why we find him in front of a squad made of Chuunin and Jounin in the Village Entrance, waiting for the mighty beast to attack to defend their home. Well, that was what he had on mind, until Minato appeared in a yellow flash -no pun intended- along with a cloaked figure.
"Hiruzen, status?" Minato asked the former Hokage, who looked at him seriously.
"Estimated arrival of the Kyuubi, 5 minutes at best, and at worst, 2 minutes" He replied. The blonde looked at Hiruzen, then at the cloaked figure, who shifted slightly in a way that could be perceived as a nod, then he looked back at him.
"Five minutes is enough. I want all of our Shinobi to evacuate the civilians to the Hokage Monument and fast; no one is to try to delay the Kyuubi, just focus on saving the civilians!" He shouted, much to the surprise of everyone and looked at him as if he grew a second head. Hiruzen however looked pissed and shook his successor by the shoulders while screaming at him.
"Do you think this is funny boy?! The Kyuubi not only has been somehow released, but it's coming directly at us and we're supposed to stop it, and yet you tell them all to just not?! Are you out of your mind?!" He yelled while Minato felt like a ragdoll with the shaking, but then, a flicker was heard which made him come back to his senses and flared his Chakra, forcing Hiruzen to stop and look at him in shock.
"I'm serious, Hiruzen, because otherwise they would just be on the way; that, and we also managed to stop the catastrophe before it even began" He said, as he looked at the recently arrived Alex, who had an excited grin on his face, and through the corner of his eye, nodded to Minato. Wordlessly, everyone left the entrance, leaving Alex alone, watching as the Kyuubi now noticed his presence and bared its teeth. It went from a walk to a jog, then to a full sprint, the ground was trembling as an unearthly pressure was saturating the air, though the Revenant seemed unfazed; actually, his grin seemed to widen, as the pressure got stronger, and the Kyuubi felt as it slowed down, and when it was just a few meters within reach, it opened its maw and sailed through the air, mouth wide open to swallow the boy, until he placed the sheathed Nodachi in front of him, slowly unsheathing it and spoke the two words that would horrify the Kyuubi forever.
"Itokuma, Akaijöo (Feast, Red Queen)" Once said, he was engulfed in a black tornado with red outlines that escalated up to the clouds, quickly sending the Kyuubi flying away.
Meanwhile, Madara had already detected where his disciple was and was warping towards it with quick uses of Kamui, his mind already planning a way to defeat him, right when he reached him; his disciple was watching from afar, Sharingan spinning, and chuckled as he sensed his master arriving.
"So, you're alive I see" He said while Madara chuckled.
"I was never one to die easily, Hashirama knew it very well" He answered.
The figure just turned to him, and took out his mask, revealing his short spiky black hair, his pale face that showed that the right side was completely scarred while the left side was perfectly normal; both his eyes had a set of Sharingan spinning rapidly, while his mouth was set on a thin line.
"Is that so? Well, because last time I saw you, you looked ready to die" He said, making Madara scowl.
"I hated using that Genjutsu, but I needed to follow the plan; not exactly of my will, but I wish I had taught you in a different way, Obito" He replied.
Without giving a chance, he dashed with a right hook, and Obito's Sharingan turned into a set of three sickles, and Madara's punch phased through his body; though, as his punch phased through Obito, his palm opened, revealing a seal, which he quickly tapped into the floor, and sent a pulse around them, confusing Obito, and when he tried using Kamui again as he saw Madara coming back with a right knee, it didn't work, making him get hit by the knee in the back. He flew back a few feet but he balanced himself in the air and landed, skidding a few feet away from his former master.
"That seal prevents any Mangekyö Sharingan user from using Kamui in a radius of 20 meters, so no funny business this time, Obito. I want a fair fight this time, and I'll get it" Madara spoke, shocking Obito and making him wonder where he got it.
Then, a pressure was felt through the clearing, making both fall to their knees, and saw in the distance a black tornado with red outlines sending strong winds anywhere; Madara chuckled and Obito gazed at it in wonder, and looked at the Uchiha Patriarch with curiosity at why he was laughing.
"It seems that the Kyuubi will not last long if this keeps going" He said, confusing Obito even further.
"What are you talking about Madara?" He couldn't help but ask, making Madara's chuckle get louder.
"If Alex has already released his Zanpakuto, then this will be just a matter of time before he goes all out, and not even Kyuubi might stop it. That boy is known as the 'Blood King' and 'The Juggernaut Driver', once he releases, his strength keeps increasing to the point that he becomes a force of nature, it was even said that he could defeat a Bijuu by himself; it was even said that if just a drop of blood falls on his blade, it will boost his drive to fight, and he's even able to control blood itself in any state" He replied.
Obito looked at the tornado, but then his senses flared, and jumped just in time as Madara delivered an axe-kick that created a crater of around 5 meters; quickly landing, he grabbed a kunai and ran with a slash, but it was blocked by Madara's Gunbai, which was then replaced by his Kusarigama, pulling the sickle by the chain to a side slash that Obito deflected with his kunai; he then started to engage Madara in a Taijutsu match, blocking a left knee and spun around to deliver a right backhand that Madara dodged by leaning his head backwards, and headbutted him when he least expected it. Obito backed away, holding his broken nose that was bleeding and snarled at his opponent, with a quick dash, he managed to punch him in the gut before kneeing his right thigh and before he could leave, Madara grabbed his head and kneed him on the face, followed by smashing it on the ground and quickly came with a roundhouse kick that managed to get Obito's right cheek, sending him flying away. Without even letting up, his hands blurred into a sequence of handseals and then he hit the last handseal.
"Fire Release: Dragon Flame Jutsu" He shouted, spitting a flame the form of a dragon that sped to Obito's direction, but he quickly went through some handseals and shouted.
"Water Release: Water Barrier Jutsu"He yelled in response, spitting out water that rose up like a wall and got hit by the dragon, making steam engulf the place.
Taking advantage of the distraction, Obito quickly appeared in front of Madara with his fist cocked back and punched him in the face, but was then retaliated by a slash of his sickle on his chest, stepping back and holding his chest in pain, whereas Madara's Sharingan spun wildly, until it stopped which took now the form of a pinwheel with three circles in it. "Amaterasu!" He said and black flames emerged from his right eye as fast as lightning towards Obito, who used a Kawarimi at the last moment and substituted with a log that was quickly burned to ashes. Madara returned the flames to his eye and dashed again, his right hand grabbing his Gunbai, and swung it forward. It then released a burst of wind that destroyed the trees and Obito skidded a few feet back. Deciding to take action, he made some handseals.
"Earth Release: Earth Spikes!" He shouted followed by a punch to the ground, spikes made of stones emerged from it making the field a wasteland; Madara kept jumping and jumping around dodging the spikes, which Obito took a shot and punched him in the Solar Plexus, followed by a right knee to the stomach and a roundhouse kick to the forehead.
He was hit by the roundhouse kick by Obito and was thrown a few feet away from the spikes but recovered in mid air and threw his Kusarigama into one of the spikes and it wrapped around it, forcing Madara to stop and descended; not long after, the earth started to tremble as a black substance started to seep from it, until it suddenly rose from the ground as if alive, and both Uchihas saw the Kyuubi flying in the sky, but the substance then wrapped itself around it and quickly brought it to the ground. Madara and Obito quickly ran away from it just as the Kyuubi hit the ground, sending debris, trees and dust everywhere in a radius of 500 meters; when both went to see what happened, a red beam was quickly approaching Kyuubi's form that made both male's eyes widen before they Kamui'd out of there, leaving a wide eyed Kyuubi that was met face to face with the beam, which quickly exploded and blasted the whole forest.
When both Uchihas saw it, Obito quickly tried to use Kamui to leave, but Madara placed a seal immediately on his torso, which stopped him, and his Sharingan quickly turned into its Mangekyö form. "Tsukuyomi" He whispered, and Obito was unable to counter it, and fell victim to the Jutsu.
In the Tsukuyomi World
When Obito regained his senses, he saw that he was in the same place he was fighting Madara, except the trees were black with its leaves being white, a red sky that included a red moon, and saw Madara, his Mangekyö Sharingan spinning.
"Now I can talk to you calmly, seeing as the Tsukuyomi World is not affected by time, which we now have in spades" He spoke, and Obito got in a defensive position, ready for anything.
"If you try anything, I swear you will not last, Madara" He spoke, but Madara just... smiled?
"Deal. Now, before you say something, I want you to know something" He replied, and the environment changed, which now showed him in the Valley of the End a century ago, showing his deceased body, followed by the appearance of Alex, Andros and Dyllos, including his resurrection. Obito just stared at the scene, shock evident in his face.
"The Tsuki no Me is a plan, but not to use the Mugen Tsukuyomi to bring peace, but rather, is a series of manipulations that will unleash certain events that will be of relevance to certain people's growths, the main one being, the new Kyuubi Jinchuuriki" He said while Obito just looked at him shocked.
"While it is to bring peace, the methods actually just bring more war to the world, and we'll use it to our favor" He continued, confusing Obito even further.
"But wait, how is war going to be in our favor to bring peace?" He asked, and Madara just smiled.
"Obito, if there's a common scapegoat, then they'll unite. When two people hate something in common, they usually unite and bring their hate over that thing. So, the Tsuki no Me is a plan that will gather outcasts that lost everything due to injustices, and evil people to become the scapegoat of the Elemental Nations, forcing them to fight together, and in the end, create peace. Sure, people will die, but there are sometimes where you must be the villain. I was already considered one because I deserted my clan when they did not believe me, so the Akatsuki will gather those Nuke-nins, the most wanted criminals, be it for evil reasons or vengeance or whatever, and their goal of getting the Jinchuurikis will force the villages to take action otherwise they lose power, and when they save the Nations, it will bring them into a new light, making the people see them as the heroes that they really are" He explained.
Obito could somewhat see what the plan really was, but he still had some doubts, but then, somehow, the world started to wave and flicker, making Madara sigh.
"It seems we do not have much time left. Remember what I told you Obito, and by nothing, absolutely nothing, should you ever try to extract the Bijuu from their containers, trust me" He said, and as Obito was about to argue, the whole landscape cracked and shattered into a million pieces, now revealing the real world, which was showing the Kyuubi rearing its paw and struck the ground, and he Kamui'd away, leaving Madara alone, as he felt a certain pulse.
"Time to end this" He whispered, and disappeared in his own Kamui.
Everyone that was being evacuated saw the explosion and the beam that engulfed part of the forest, but what they did not see, was that some debris were flying right at some of the houses, crushing them instantly, and another roar was heard, seeing the Kyuubi with its nine tails pointing towards his muzzle, where an orange sphere was forming, and then it released the sphere, which turned into a beam; somehow, there was a glint of silver, which redirected the beam upwards and everyone stared at it in awe, until it exploded. It sent shock waves everywhere, bringing dust from the ground and even wrecked some other houses. Everyone tried to cover themselves while the Shinobi and the Kunoichi were guiding the civilians inside the bunkers whereas Minato, who had Naruto in his arms, was watching everything with Hiruzen, the former with widened eyes and the latter being slack jawed.
"Minato, w-who could redirect a Bijuudama like that?" He whispered, and then saw the Kyuubi's head snapped to the ground, creating another crater, and they were surprised when they saw quick flickers of silver and red shaped like slashes, until there was a final flicker above the beast, and it exploded again, sending shock waves that destroyed other houses as well as another part of the forest. Minato just smirked when he felt a certain pulse.
"Seems that he got what he wanted" He whispered. He then looked at little Naruto and smiled sadly; his face then turned serious, and his gaze shifted from the battle to the Sandaime, whom noticed it and looked at him.
"Hiruzen, while that person might defeat the Kyuubi, it cannot be killed, and if we lose it, both Iwa and Kumo could go after us, and the only way to truly defeat the Kyuubi, is by sealing it" He told his predecessor, whose eyes widened in shock.
"A-are you crazy Minato?! What about your son, what about Kushina?! You can't just leave them alone, otherwise Naruto will be hated and Kushina will not always be there for him!" He yelled, but Minato's face did not change.
"Hiruzen, this is for the best of Konoha, and I can't ask for a parent to do a sacrifice I can do; and I'll entrust my son to your care when I'm not here. Please, Hiruzen, I beg of you, not as a Hokage, not as a friend, but as a father; please" He begged, almost kneeling in front of the aged Hokage.
Hiruzen's mind was in turmoil; he knew where this is going, and he was ready to sacrifice himself to seal the Kyuubi, but something told him to trust his successor in this, and as much as it terrified him, Minato knew sealing better than him, and he himself did not know the Shiki Fujin (Dead Consuming Seal), so he had no other option but to trust him; with a heavy sigh, he nodded.
"Alright, I'll take care of him" He replied, making Minato's eyes shine with relief.
"Thank you Hiruz- Look out!" He thanked him, but then he looked to the side before he grabbed the Sarutobi and flashed away from the mountain and the civilians hurriedly tried to run into the bunkers as the Kyuubi was flying towards them; sadly, some were not able to make it, as the Kyuubi collided with the Hokage Monument, destroying another part of the village. It then slowly fell down towards the base of the monument, its form was filled with glowing gashes and it seemed to have an ear missing, which was slowly forming again; it opened one eye, to see Alex in front of him, sword being sheathed, and when the deed was done, his hand was engulfed in the same substance that held it before, and placed it on its forehead. It then roared in pain as it felt its Chakra being sucked by the hand, the nine tails disappearing one by one, until only one tail was left. When it ended, the Kyuubi's form started to shrink down, the glow it had was receding as well, until the only thing that remained of it, was a beautiful woman, all marred with bruises and wounds that were bleeding profusely.
She had red waist length hair that looked crimson due to her blood, her face could only be described as angelic, with a heart shaped face, pale skin with soft, plump red lips, a hourglass figure, a narrow waist, wide hips, a big plump butt and long creamy legs that seemed to just keep going, though the most prominent features, were definitely her breasts, which were somewhat G-Cups, a tad bit smaller than Tsunade herself, the two fox ears atop her head, and the fox tail that was behind her, not to mention that she was naked.
If Alex was like when he was 15, then he would have a nosebleed, though his eyes now softened, almost as if he looked regretful, and sighed as he felt Minato and Madara's signatures appearing behind him, along with the hooded man, which revealed to be a tan skinned man with long brown hair and charcoal eyes, filled with sadness; this man, was the Shodaime Hokage, and only wielder of the Mokuton, Hashirama Senju; the three of them looked at him disapprovingly, and he just sighed again.
"Spare me the glares for later, because I don't want to feel more guilty than I already am" He spoke, his voice now gruff, making them grow stiff, but nodded. Minato then passed Naruto to Alex, whom nodded in response and placed him on the ground, the earth shifting to form an altar as a black substance surrounded it, forming into an intricate set of seals. Right then, he felt three pulses, knowing what it meant, and smiled slightly; raising his hand to the air, two fingers then pointed upwards, where a black sphere with red outlines started to form, and he then pushed his thumb forward, releasing a beam that sailed through the sky. After a few moments, a sudden shining appeared above them, revealing Dyllos with his businessman clothing, his briefcase and sporting some reading glasses.
When he looked at Alex, both nodded to each other, and a purple sphere with red outlines appeared from Alex's hand. Then, Alex and the others started to glow, then they started to shrink in size, each turning into a sphere; Minato was a yellow sphere with navy blue outlines, Madara was a navy blue sphere with purple outlines; Hashirama was a brown sphere with green outlines and Alex was a pitch black sphere with crimson outlines. Then, the five spheres entered Naruto's body, right where an intricate seal was, followed by a white sphere with orange outlines, where another seal then appeared. When it was done, Dyllos sighed as he saw the body of the baby, crying as he felt the lack of warmth from his father, but then, he noticed a mark on his chest, and chuckled before he faded.
The mark of a spiraling double scythe.
CN: WHOOOOOOO! God damn that took a lot of time!
Alex: Well it did, though I noticed that there was a huge difference from last time
CN: Well, it is better that way I guess, because it was just plot and not fighting at all; so I decided to focus more on the battle and less on plot
Naruto: But I wonder what will happen now, and BTW, the Kyuubi colliding with the Hokage Monument, that was a dick move CN.
CN: Okay I admit, though, while I was writing I thought "Why would people hate him if they did not lose a close person to them?" So I decided to do that, and Alex tends to get very messy when fighting
Alex: HEY!
CN: Anyway, hope you liked this reworked version, like and review, PM me for any question.
Smell ya' later
