Era of Khaos

He broke and disappeared, not to be seen for decades before returning together with a new group only for them to bring forth a new era in which they will set the rules.

Chapter 2

A large pulse of power could be felt throughout the elemental Nations as in the middle of an empty field a portal made itself known from nowhere. The inhabitants of the land, while feeling the pulse shook it off as not important, thinking they imagined it. Unfortunately for them it wasn't as numerous people it different parts of the world felt said power though they too wrote if off as imagination.

Out of the portal 6 people stepped out.

First was Vali who was followed by Bikou. Arthur and Le fay exited closely after them till Naruto and Kuroka did as well. The moment both Naruto and Kuroka exited the portal it closed itself before disappearing. Leaving no trace like it had never appeared in the first place.

''Interesting…'' Naruto spoke up as he looked around the area they were currently in. The others of the group mimicked his actions as they saw nothing but grass going on for miles till it reached the edge of a forest located to the west of their current position.

Kuroka hummed in agreement as she took a big sniff and inhaled the scent of nature. It smelt fresh and clean unlike their home dimension where shen would smell pollution. She enjoyed the fresh of clean air not ruined by human interventions. ''Kuroka.'' Vali's voice cut her out of her thoughts.

''Huh?'' She said as she turned her head in his direction, her eyes still looking at the scenery.

''Can you use your Senjutsu to try if there are any humans or other living beings nearby?'' He asked her. Kuroka's eyes lit up and nodded her head before she closed her eyes and concentrated. Mere seconds later she opened her eyes in shock as she realised how fast she managed to enter her Senjutsu state. Unlike back home where it could take a while all while fighting against the malice and evil that reeked the world, it took only a couple of seconds before she entered her Senjutsu state here. The best part was that she sensed no such things here, indicating that the current dimension they are in is very, very clean when it comes to things like that, though it could also mean that they weren't as advanced in technology when it came to their home dimension. She shuddered as her senses overloaded with nothing but the feeling of nature.

''That was quick.'' Naruto said as he noticed how fast she managed to enter her sage mode while also getting the attention of the others in the group. Seeing their looks he let out a sigh before beginning to explain all while Kuroka was lost in her own world as she enjoyed this new feeling she was experiencing.

''I'm talking about how quick Kuroka managed to enter her Sage mode. As you all know a sage is one with nature, which means that for her to enter it so fast and without any problems this dimension is very clean compared to our own and has a lot less malice reeking it. However, it also could mean that they are far behind when it comes to technology when compared with us as technology in our world polluted the air, thereby making it harder for Senjutsu users to enter their state.'' He explained to the group. They all nodded as they understood what he meant and it explained Kuroka's behaviour.

''Anyway, Kuroka did you manage to feel anything?'' Naruto asked her.

Kuroka shook her head. ''Nope, i don't sense any humans, only animals. Although…'' She trailed off as her eyebrows furrowed in wonder. ''Yes?'' Naruto said interested in what she was about to say.

''It appears all the animals have chakra inside of them. Even though it's only a tiny amount they still have it.'' She told them who were all listening to her.

''Hm, didn't Ophis say that humans were capable of using chakra in this dimension? It's safe to say each being, whether they be animal or human is in possession of said power.'' Arthur spoke up this time as he thought it over.

No one said anything as they were unsure whether or not he was right or not. While Ophis indeed said chakra was used by every human had chakra inside of them, she never spoke anything of animals.

''Uhm, Naruto-sama… What are we going to do now?'' Le Fay asked him.

All eyes turned to him as he gave them a raised eyebrow in return. ''Why are you asking me?'' He asked the girl. ''Huh? You are the oldest and strongest of us Naruto-sama. Shouldn't you be the leader?'' She asked him in confusion.

Naruto could see where she was coming from. Normally you would place someone who knew more about the objective as the leader however, no one knew anything about his world aside from the little Ophis told them and their mission. ''Alright then. Before we start, does anyone have any problems with me leading us at the moment?'' He asked them. They all shook their heads though he saw that Vali wanted to say something but stopped himself.

''Good. Now, first things first. There is no need for the 'sama' suffix to be added to my name Le Fay.'' He told the smal girl who nodded her head underneath the witch hat she wore. ''Moving on, since we absolutely know nothing about this dimension it logical for us to travel together for now till we gain some information about were we currently are at and our mission.'' He reasoned with them.

''I also suggest not attracting any attention to us so we don't use any of our abilities that would stand out such as our Devil wings and Le Fay's magic.'' He said as the others nodded as they could see were he was going for. Since only humans lived in this world seeing someone fly around isn't really normal and neither was Le Fay using her magic. ''Next is that since Ophis didn't gave us a time limit on this mission so we will take our time to get accustomed to this world and slowly gain the location on these Bijuu. If they're sealed inside certain humans they would surely protect them heavily and getting information about them will be very hard. We would most likely look very suspicious if we were to ask some random person about them. Any questions?'' He asked as he looked them over.

''Uh yea, what happens when we get to a town or whatever they have here and couldn't we just barge in and use brute force to take these Bijuu?'' Vali asked him. He was looking forward to fighting these Bijuu and how strong they would really be.

Naruto withheld a sigh as he heard the boy's question. He had heard he was a battle maniac and while part of him wouldn't mind with his plan if something went wrong they could start a war which he wasn't really looking forward to. ''We ask for information about the current world. Just tell them a lie that this is our first time traveling which is somewhat true and regarding your suggestion…'' He trailed off before disappearing and reappearing only this time he had his finger outstretched and a drop of blood one it. ''While a part of me would like that i just doubt it'll work in the long run. But since you're so itched for a fight i'll spar with you every now and then to increase your skills. While you are no doubt very strong for your age, partly due to you having Divine Dividing.'' He said shocking Vali who now sported a shallow cut on his cheek. He hadn't told him about his Sacred Gear. ''Though it seems that your skills without it aren't as good as it seems as i was barely moving at Ultimate-Class speed just now.'' He said as Vali could only nod as he felt a shiver in anticipation running over through his body at the thought of being trained by someone as powerful as the person in front of him. Though there was also truth spoken in his words as his regular skills weren't much higher than a High-Class Devil without using Divine Dividing.

''Anyway,'' He said as he turned around but didn't move further. ''It's time for us to start moving. We will stop every now and then to let Kuroka try and sense for any population near us.'' He said as he started walking. Kuroka quickly made her way next to him as the rest began to follow him, trying to draw the least attention as possible.

It was quite humorous though. Had Ophis provided them more information they would have realised just how much they would stand out when compared to the regular humans living in the current world. If it wasn't for their clothes that they were wearing it would've been for their looks as they looked as far off as anyone could be especially Kuroka since she wasn't fond of hiding her Nekoshou features.

Two days, that's how long they've been walking since they arrived in this new world.

They have come across no one. Not a single human being since they began they have arrived here. They had stopped every thirty minutes to let Kuroka enter her Sage mode in order for her to seek for any life forms that weren't animals.

They had taken a break for a couple of hours when they were near a clean looking river in order for them to catch some fish to eat much to Kuroka's pleasure as she absolutely adored fish which wasn't really an surprise to anyone. After that they had set up numerous traps before taking a nap inside a tent that Naruto had sealed on him. It was big enough for them all and there were enough beds though Kuroka insisted that she would sleep next to him. Not up to fight back Naruto just accepted as Kuroka had shed her clothes before moving underneath the blankets.

They weren't allowed to rest for long though as just 4 hours later Naruto woke up before he began waking up the rest who begrudgingly got out of their beds. Having prepared a fire Kuroka began to cook some of the fish left from hours ago while Naruto was busy with resealing his tent.

Quickly eating up the fish Kuroka had prepared they continued their walk, hoping they would soon find town or what not so they can rest properly and eat something other than fish.

So that's were they currently were, though they did find something that raised their hopes. A road. Nothing fancy or anything as it was made out of dirt but a road is a road and logically it would lead to civilization. It was only a matter of time.

''So bored!'' Kuroka wailed into his ear as she was leaning her head on Naruto's shoulder. He was carrying her due to her complaining and decided enough was enough before letting her rest on his back. He could feel her press her breast into his back as she rubbed her cheek against his. Suddenly she stopped, making Naruto look at her only to see her eyes narrowed in a different direction. Following her gaze he spotted what she was looking at and turned to the group. ''It seems Kuroka spotted something.'' He informed them as they looked to where the two of them had their eyes locked at. Vali and Bikou were the only ones who spotted what they saw due to their eyes being better than regular humans and looked at them.

''Are we going towards there?'' Bikou asked as he ignored the scene of Kuroka rubbing herself all over their appointed leader.

Naruto hummed as he turned his gaze back towards the object in the distance. ''I'd say we do. It's our best chance at finding anything other than trees soon.'' He said as he waved his hand around them to drive his point further. Seeing no other option aside from aimlessly walking around they made their way to whatever it was they spotted in hopes of gaining any information about any nearby towns.

As they neared it they all got a good look at what they were looking at.

''Interesting.'' Naruto said softly though Kuroka managed to hear him due to her close proximity with him due to literally hanging on his back. Once they got closer they saw the object they spotted from a distance away was just a simple wooden pole in the ground. It was what was attached to it that got their attention though.

Written on what seemed like basic wooden boards that were seemingly hammered on the pole in a poor attempt they were surprised though, as it was written in Kanji. Indicating that wherever they were currently at the people either spoke or wrote in Japanese.

It wasn't really a problem for him though. Being a devil had it advantages. One of them happened to be being easy to understand and learn different languages. The fact that he had over four centuries to learn and get properly acquainted with all the different languages were a large help as well.

He was sure Vali, being a devil like him though from what information he had heard from numerous informants he had the boy was a Half-Devil. He honestly wasn't sure what that did and if it would hamper his ability to learn but figured now wasn't the time to think about such.

With Arthur and Le Fay he was sure that, with them being from a Noble house in England they were thought at least some other languages aside from English. He knew they were capable of speaking Japanese based on their interactions but he had no idea how far their knowledge when it came to other languages went.

Then it came to Bikou and Kuroka. Both of course knew Japanese probably due to the Youkai Faction residing in Kyoto. The Faction that is led by a nine tailed fox named Yasaka. He suppressed a blush that was trying to show itself as he thought about the beautiful fox woman before quickly shaking his head to clear his thoughts. He could reminiscence about her later. Anyway, with the Youkai Faction residing in Kyoto is was basic understanding they would speak Japanese. Though, unlike other factions the Youkai's didn't really leave Kyoto or Japan in general. In fact, the only time he had come across Youkai in parts of Europe was when they were reincarnated by the Evil Pieces that... Ajuka? If he recalled correctly invented.

It was quite the invention if he had to say so himself. The ability to reincarnate Humans, Youkai and Fallen into a Devil. Though he disliked the fact that if they really wanted they could force someone to join them which was a major flaw if he had to say so himself. He was sure that there were numerous Devils that reincarnated less than cooperative supernatural in their 'Peerages' what they call them.

Another flaw in his opinion was that the Devil that reincarnated said person pretty much had ownership of the being they had reincarnated. They could do whatever they wanted with them and they couldn't really deny them. Well they could but it wouldn't really matter, because if the reincarnated person would fight back or kill their 'King' they would be written off as a criminal.

It was one of the things he liked Kuroka for. She had killed her former King to save both herself and her sister from death instead of powering up some third rate Devil. Unfortunately the Nekoshou race had heavily paid the price for her actions.

He couldn't help but berate Sirzechs for his foolishness. The guy was supposed to be the new leader of the Underworld yet he couldn't even control his own men when they mercilessly slaughtered all those innocent Nekoshou's. In his mind Sirzechs was weak, not fit to be the ruler of the Underworld. He should've stood up to them as he pretty much gave the greenlight for genocide.

Unknown to them though Kuroka and her sister Shirone, now Koneko weren't the only Nekoshou's left. He had visited the Underworld when the killings had happened and had managed to save a couple dozen of them. Those foolish Devils that stood against him had no chance as he slaughtered them without any discrimination. Unfortunately he couldn't save more of them without risking those he had already saved and getting the attention of the Satans. While he was sure he could easily take his niece Serafall because as powerful she was with her ice magic he outclassed her in sheer power and magic reserves.

Falbium… he honestly wondered how the man received the title of Satan because as powerful his ability was it was just that. He didn't have anything more to him. At Least not the last time he had fought aside him those years ago.

The real problem were both Ajuka and Sirzechs. In his opinion they were the only ones worthy of sharing the title of Super Devil with him. They were true monsters on the battlefield and he could only look forward to fighting them one day.

He could already imagine the destruction they would cause should they go all out. Entire countries would end up decimated and the remnants of their fights would be seen for ages…

Anyway, back to the Nekoshou incident.

It got only worse as he had returned to Kyoto with all of them in tow. Yasaka had questioned him why he was in company of dozens of Nekoshou which had surprised him as he had at least expected her to have been informed by the Devils about the happenings down there.

Of Course, once he explained his reason Yasaka began to leak large amount of power as her expression twisted from confusion to fury. He managed to stop her though by releasing a potent amount of power straight at her that seemed to trigger her primal instincts as she immediately stopped and her ears flattened against the top of her head.

She had thanked him before excusing herself and showing the surviving Nekoshou's a place to stay the night while they would go over the paperwork tomorrow and she would send Sirzechs a serious letter that there would be severe consequences.

A day later Yasaka had forbidden entry to any Devils when it came to Kyoto and would be active for as long as she would be the ruler. Of course said rule didn't apply to him as he had made Kyoto his home with Yasaka's permission.

He failed to hide the blush this time though as he remembered Yasaka visiting him that night. Her exposure to his power had jump started her heat cycle which he gladly had helped with.

One the outside of his thought the group looked weirdly at him as he wasn't replying to anything they asked. They had figured out what was written one the board before asking about his opinion only to see him lost in his own thoughts. For the past five minutes.

Enough was enough however as Kuroka punched him hard in his stomach after seeing the blush he sported. She had an idea why he was blushing. He had informed her about his relationship he had with the Yasaka who led the Youkai Faction. She had no problems with it though as she told him someone as powerful as him usually had multiple mates.

That didn't mean that she liked it when he thought about her when she was around. She was a Nekoshou, a very beautiful one at that as she wasn't stupid to ignore the numerous looks of lust that were directed her way by members of different races. A shame for them though that they weren't powerful enough for her to show them any interest.

It was quite simply insulting to her that he would think about other females when she was around. She still had her pride after all.

The others winced slightly as they saw Kuroka hitting Naruto hard in his stomach. They had seen brief showcases of her power when it came to hand to hand combat and her strength was nothing to scoff at. Probably why Nekoshou's were often reincarnated as Rooks when they couldn't utilize Senjutsu to become a Bishop.

Naruto's body bent over slightly as he felt Kuroka digging her fist in his stomach while also getting kicked out of his thoughts. He looked at her with one eye closed as he sent his magic towards the place her fist hit him as it began to heal.

''Pervert-kun nya!'' Kuroka said as she removed her fist from his stomach. He chuckled sheepishly before kissing her softly on the top of her head between her ears as he turned to the rest. ''So, what's up?''

The group sweatdropped before speaking up. ''Apparently there's a town nearby.'' Arthur said as he pointed towards the board that said Land of Tea.

''Land of Tea…''He read before addressing the rest. ''Well, let's get going then. If we are lucky we'll reach it before nightfall.'' He said as he started to walk only for Kuroka to jump on his back like before.

''You're carrying me pervert-kun nya~'' She said while patting his cheek. Naruto suppressed the urge to sigh before walking along as the others watched in amusement before quickly following behind as Kuroka giggled softly.

''Alright Kuroka, Please hide your Nekoshou features.'' Naruto asked the woman one his back as the group stopped just as they could see the village in the distance. It was another hour walking but they finally spotted the small village.

''What? Whyyy~'' She whined. Kuroka hated hiding her ears and tails. It was part of who she was and she was very proud of her heritage. She also found it uncomfortable to hide them for even small periods of time.

''Please Kuroka.'' He begged her. ''I'll do anything for you.''

Kuroka's eyes lit up. Unfortunately for him she was still on his back so he missed the glint that shone in her golden slitted eyes as she leaned so her mouth was next to his ear. His eyebrows rose as he heard her request and a slight dust of pink could be seen one his cheeks before he nodded. Kuroka turned his head so his face was looking at her own and planted her lips on his.

''Uhm can we continue on our way? You two can continue whatever it is that you want to do later when we have separate rooms.'' Vali's voice said as they stopped. Naruto looked apologetic while Kuroka gave him a fierce glare for interrupting her fun which he just ignored.

Naruto coughed in embarrassment before nodding in agreement with him. ''Yes, yes let's continue so we'll have a proper meal and bed later.'' He said as he gave Kuroka look. She nodded her head before her Nekoshou features disappeared leaving her her with just her black hair which was held together by her headband.

As they neared the village their earlier thoughts were confirmed as they noticed just how far back this world was when it came to technology. The buildings were all made from wood and the style reminded him of the buildings he saw centuries ago back in Japan. The closest thing this town reminded him of was Kyoto but even that place was more technology advanced than where they currently were.

''I guess this explains why Kuroka was so quickly able to access Senjutsu.'' Bikou said as the others agreed. With how far this world was regarding technology the air wasn't as polluted and ruined like their own.

The moment the group walked into town all the eyes were on them. They couldn't really blame them to be honest. They expected the world to be behind on their own but this was unexpected. Their earlier plan of attracting the least amount of attention went down the drain as their clothes were so different from what the locals wore.

In fact, Kuroka's kimono was the closest article of clothing that fitted with the time these people lived in. Arthur's suit and Le Fay's witch clothes were getting numerous glances as children pointed at them while looking on in wonder. Bikou's armor got quite a lot of attention by itself as it had quite the unique look. He himself had gotten some glances sent his way most likely due to the tattered shroud he wore as the other articles he wore fitted somewhat with population of the little village. The same went for Vali who's clothes didn't look to weird and could fit somewhat with the rest of the population.

As they continued their walk they spotted an inn to the side and made their way towards it, ignoring the eyes that followed them every step as they walked. ''This is quite uncomfortable.'' Bikou whispered as he did his best to ignore the stares. Le Fay unconsciously moved closer to her brother as she was getting freaked out.

Putting Kuroka down from his back as the group entered the inn only for each and every person inside to stop what they were doing and focused on group that just entered and saw the clothes they wore. Having enough of all the glares sent their way Naruto began to leak a tiny amount of Demonic energy which did the trick. The people inside felt the gravity increasing as Naruto started releasing a fraction of his power. Unknown to them, Demonic energy is a lot more potent than chakra and thus you often needed just a small amount to get someone's attention and currently, if one were to look at him they would be able to practically feel his annoyance.

Making his way to what seemed like the owner of the inn he ignored the scared glances that were now sent his way. A few brave men openly glared at him as they saw the beauty that was Kuroka hanging on his arm but didn't dare to go further after the feeling of dread they experienced.

Approaching the owner, a man that looked to be in his late 40's with dark brown hair and a small beard he gave him a nod that was returned. ''I need six roo- ouch, i mean five. Five rooms for a few days.'' Kuroka smiled and leaned over to peck his cheek after she heard him correct himself. She had jabbed his ribs as she heard him getting separate rooms for everyone.

The older looking man nodded as he heard his request before looking to see if there were enough rooms for the group. Seeing that he had enough free rooms he looked back before saying. ''That would be 50,000 ryo.'' The man said.

Naruto widened his eyes 'Ryo?' That currency wasn't even used anymore back home. They had switched to Yen a long time ago. Opening his wallet he saw that it was filled with mixture of Yen and Dollars which won't be accepted. ''What's wrong?'' He heard Kuroka ask. She had missed whatever it was that the man had told them and saw Naruto looking irritated at his wallet.

''They still use Ryo in this dimension.'' Naruto whispered at her. Kuroka got a look of understanding as she heard the reason for his irritation. ''Don't you have anything else you could pay with?'' She whispered back at him.

He nodded and channeled his magic into one of the seals he had placed on his wrist as a bag suddenly appeared in his hands. The owner of the inn raised an eyebrow as he looked at whatever the strange clothed male was doing. Likewise Kuroka looked on, curious of what could be inside of the bag he was holding. Reaching inside he felt around for a bit before removing his hand from the inside which was now closed. Hovering over the counter he opened his hand as the older looking man widened his eyes as he looked what was inside of his hand.

Gemstones. Emeralds and Rubies from the color of them. ''Is this enough?'' He asked though it was clear that it wasn't a question to the man. The man nodded his head before handing over the keys to the rooms as Naruto resealed the bag away. He accepted the keys before handing them to Kuroka as they walked back to the group who by now had sat down comfortable on one of the benches.

''I didn't know you had a bag filled with gemstones.'' Kuroka said before she was hushed by his fingers on her lips. He wasn't a fas of using that bag. He had in collected lots of different gemstones since he had left the Underworld. It was an good way to pay for certain items you couldn't regularly buy and almost no one would decline them as it was a lot easier to explain and get rid off instead of large amounts of money. Though like he did just now he used it to pay things he either didn't have enough for or the wrong currency. ''Shhh, keep it down.'' He said softly as he saw a few shady looking people sneaking glancesa at him after they heard Kuroka's words. They weren't a threat though but he would rather not kill anyone for now. Kuroka nodded as they sat down with the others as she handed them keys to their room.

''Alright everyone.'' Naruto said as he got their attention. ''Those are the keys to your room, the number is printed on it incase you missed it.'' He said as they all looked it over to see he was indeed correct. ''Now, tomorrow we'll look around and try to find more information about where we currently are. A map would be handy so that's what we'll be looking for. Other than that we have to go and buy different clothes as all of us except Kuroka really stand out due to this world being less advanced than we had expected and we stand out like a sore thumb, understood?''

They all nodded as Naruto stood up. ''Well, i'm going to check the room they gave me. Be back for dinner later.'' He said as he dragged Kuroka with him towards the room they shared.

Once they left Bikou looked at the rest. ''So, what do you think about this mission?'' He asked the group.

''Meh, it's alright i guess. I'm looking forward to sparring with the guy though, someone as powerful as him is sure to give me the greatest challenge yet.'' Came Vali's reply. It was to be expected from him but he nodded nonetheless. ''Anyway, i too am heading towards my room, later.'' He said as he stood up and walked away.

''What about you two?'' He asked the Pendragon siblings.

''I'm alright though i'm looking forward to see how strong the humans of this world are. Other than that i'll just follow Naruto.'' Arthur said.

''And you Le Fay, what do you think?'' He asked the short girl who was hiding herself underneath the large hat she wore.

''I-i'm not sure.'' Le Fay said as she peeked her eyes out. ''But it seems Naruto-sama knows what he's talking about so i will also follow him. He is the most powerful and oldest of us so he knows more than we do.'' She gave her opinion before she too stood up with Arthur mimicking his little sister before the two moved to their given rooms.

Bikou was left behind as he stared blankly at the table his hands were resting on. He wasn't sure how he felt about the mission or was it Naruto himself? With him being a Youkai his senses were better than humans and something about him just screamed danger, like he would certainly perish should he try to fight against him. The others didn't seem to feel the same things he did or they just ignored it. He knew the man was ridiculously powerful, on par or perhaps even better than the current Lucifer who's one of the 10 strongest beings in their universe. Shaking his head to clear his thoughts he looked around once more before heading towards his room as well, leaving a few people to stare at his retreating armored form

End Chapter 2.

Revealed a bit about Naruto's backstory since he left the Underworld and his relation with Yasaka which i'll explain and reveal more about in later chapters.

Anyway, thanks for reading and see you next time~
