NA: Go ninja, go ninja, go! Overwatch! Yes we are also having RWBY in this since it is actually quite fitting. I mean the Overwatch universe is just slightly less crazy than the Marvel universe, not to mention there isn't much lore revealed yet. Some backstories and the animated shorts, yes, but not an actual story.

Anyways, grab some popcorn and enjoy the show!

Had to change Hana's IGN to D-Va since FFN would not allow me to use a 'period' between the D and V.

~oOo~

Doctor Angela Ziegler, AKA Mercy, has been a member of Overwatch for many years. Ever since the organization's reformation, she had been more than happy to meet up with her colleagues in Tokyo where they will be heading towards Remnant through the hidden lands. She has seen many things wherever she had gone. She had seen some beautiful things, some amazing things, some sad and depressing things, and she saw some horrible things. She had disagreements towards South Korea's conscription of their professional gamers due to them possessing the necessary reflexes and instincts to operate their mechs. The one she had just met was Hana Song, more commonly known as D-Va. A nineteen year old young woman, to her, is far too young to be sent to fight. In Angela's eyes she is still a child.

What concerned her more was that newcomer that had met up with her former patient Genji.

"Uncle." A red-haired young man with whiskers on his cheeks and tattoos on his entire left arm bowed to the cybernetic ninja.

"Ah… nephew, you came."

"I am here to represent the clan, uncle. I would never dare bring dishonor."

Genji nodded and patted his nephew's shoulder.

"Genji." Angela approached them. "This is your nephew?"

The cyborg nodded. "This is Naruto, my brother Hanzo's son."

"I was not aware that he had a son."

"I am adopted." Naruto clarified before bowing to the woman. "A pleasure to meet you Doctor Ziegler. I thank you for saving my uncle."

The woman saw how young the redhead was and slightly frowned at the sight of his tattoo. She did not want to involve those so young for this expedition but they were being sent to a school… a combat school. "Aren't you a little too young to have tattoos?"

"They are clan markings, Doctor." Naruto said, unfazed by her disapproving tone. "They represent both the Shimada and Uzumaki clans. I am the last of the latter. Our home was wiped out due to fear of our clan becoming too powerful."

Angela looked aghast. "How horrible."

"The hidden lands have been that way for a very long time."

The doctor's eyes widened. "You're from the hidden lands?"

The redhead nodded. "I was born in Konoha. My… parents… were killed on the day of my birth. I did not live a good life until father found me on death's door."

Ah yes… the shinobi villages of the hidden lands train child soldiers to fight for the village's interests. It was barbaric, but it has been that way for a very long time. It is their way, and though she wanted to disagree, she had no right to judge them as it would mean being discriminatory towards a foreign culture.

"If you will excuse me." Naruto bowed to both his uncle and the doctor before making his way inside. "I will make myself acquainted with this place."

Watching the young shinobi head inside, Angela bore a sad look. "For someone so young he has been through too much. His left chest is someone warped… a scar perhaps?"

Genji shrugged. "What he has endured has only made him stronger. He has no desire to become clan head, he only wishes to live out his life the way he wants. He deserves that much."

"Has your nephew ever had a chance of being a child?"

Genji shook his head much to Angela's displeasure. "No. He had lost that right on the day of his birth."

Overwatch: Heart of the Shinobi

Chapter 2: Into the land of Dust

"You don't really talk much, do you luv?" A young British woman at 26 with short spiky brown hair eyed Naruto as he went through the ritual of cleaning his bright red katana.

"I only 'talk much' when the need arises." Naruto said as he ran an oiling cloth over the blade after wiping out any possibly debris with a simple cloth. Running it down, he let the oil settle before wiping it clean off with a wiping paper.

"Watcha' doin?"

"Cleaning Akahime."

"Aka what?"

"It is the name of his sword, Tracer." A large gorilla wearing white armor said as he walked in. "It means red princess, am I wrong."

Naruto nodded and gave the talking gorilla a small smile. "You are correct, Winston-san."

"I have studied various cultures of the world." Winston said as he adjusted his glasses. "A pleasure to meet you, Shimada Naruto, I am Winston, scientist and member of Overwatch."

"I am well aware of who you are." The red-haired shinobi said, nodding to the gorilla in a respective manner. "I read many articles of your organization's exploits. It is a shame that the world had rejected your ideals during a time of great need."

Tracer shrugged. "Not everyone likes what we do, luv. But still, we do what we can. What about you?"

"What about me?"

"Excited to do hero stuff with us?"

Naruto stifled a chuckle as he gently dabbed the uchiko ball on his blade, lightly spreading a special powder over the red metal. "I do not believe in heroes."

Tracer tilted her head. "No?"

"I believe in the ideals of working in the dark to serve the light." The redhead declared as he glided a cleaning cloth over the blade, wiping the powder away. "I do not look for recognition or attention."

"Well that might be a little too late to say."

Naruto raised an eyebrow at Tracer's words when he was then shown a YouTube video of him taking down Talon mercenaries with D-Va, the very same encounter he had last night.

"Everyone is wondering who this new ninja is." Winston said as he then went to the comment section. "People are saying you're like a mini-Genji. And a real life Jetstream Sam from Metal Gear Rising while Genji is Raiden."

"Well he is my uncle, and I did learn the Shimada-style of kenjutsu." The shinobi then widened his eyes before letting out a sigh. "I was careless… dammit. I was hoping for people not to know of me so soon."

"Well there's nothing you can do about it now, luv." Tracer said as she stood up and stretched her arms and back.

Naruto stared at his blade, and instead of seeing the reflection of his face, he saw his mother sadly smiling at him. Blinking, he saw his face. He mentally sighed that his mother could be saddened at how he turned out. Perhaps this was not what she had wished for him… he wouldn't know… she's not around…

"Naruto?"

"Hm?" The redhead was snapped out of his thoughts when Winston nudged him.

"Are you alright?"

"Hai." The shinobi nodded as he placed Akahime back into her sheath. "I was just thinking. It's ironic for me… years ago I was an attention seeker due to not having grown up with a nice loving family."

"You're an orphan." Tracer said with her eyes widening a little.

Naruto nodded once again. "I grew up not knowing any better. Every day I would come to home an empty apartment with no one to greet me. The village I was born in scorned me for the power that I possessed within me . It's rather depressing… having the world reject you, added with being an orphan and a scapegoat just added insult to injury. Later on my seventh birthday… the beatings…"

"Blimey!" Tracer gasped. They would beat a child!? What kind of people are they!?

Naruto's eyes looked distant as he gazed at out the window to see the sprawling city of Tokyo. "They would call me demon child or demon brat, as if I was an actual demon. So I escaped my rundown apartment and hid in a cave within the forest, sometimes for days. Children were not allowed to play with me, their parents would tell them to keep their distance, alienating me in the process."

Winston frowned. That was not right. No child should be subject to such experiences.

"When I was twelve, months before Shimada Hanzo found me, I gained an ability where I can make fragile copies of myself called shadow clones. Through them I would use them…" Naruto gripped Akahime's scabbard rather tightly. "…I would use them to keep myself company when I'm at home. I often questioned myself if I was slowly losing my sanity."

"But you didn't." Tracer pointed out. "I mean… you like fine to me. Your noggin doesn't look twisted."

The shinobi smiled appreciatively at the time-manipulating fighter. "I thank you that you think so, Tracer."

"So what happened next?" The gorilla asked as he got himself a banana and a jar of peanut butter.

"In the end I did gain friends… but… they still saw me as the village idiot. I wanted to become the village's leader so that I might finally earn recognition."

Winston eyed the redhead and nodded in understanding. "You realized that wouldn't work."

The shinobi set Akahime aside and went over to the fridge, grabbing an orange soda for himself. "Yeah. Months later, the one I called brother, Sasuke, betrayed the village. I, along with others, were sent to bring him back. Long story short, he defeated me, putting a whole in my chest and making a quick getaway. Moments later Shimada Hanzo, my father, found me on death's doorstep. And the rest is history." Turning around, he found Winston sniffling with a few droplets of water running down his cheek. "Winston, are you crying?"

Winston sniffled and wiped away the tears. "N-No… I'm not."

Tracer giggled. "Winston here can be a really big softy."

"I'm not a softy, I'm a scientist!"

Naruto looked at them for a few seconds before snickering and then turning to full-blown laughter. He might just like hanging with these people. Just maybe… he might just fit right in.

~oOo~

"Ah!" Hana pointed at Naruto as he walked in. "You!"

"Yes, me."

The former professional gamer placed her Nintendo 3DS down on the table and walked up to him, pouting cutely at him. "Hacker!"

"Well I did hack at those mercenaries last night." Naruto quipped, although he knew exactly what she was calling him. "But I think I slashed them more."

"Oh you know what I'm talking about!" Hana growled at him.

Naruto let out a sigh. "Look, I was just in the area and thought I could help out. Besides those Talon thugs were no doubt up to something."

"I know that." The MEKA pilot let out a sigh of her own. "Sorry…"

"No harm done." He held out his hand and smiled at her. "Friends?"

Hana nodded and smiled in return, taking his hand and shaking it. "Friends."

Moment later the two sat down with Hana playing with her 3DS. Naruto just twiddled with a few of his shuriken and talked. It was certainly refreshing to have someone of your age group going with you to an unknown place filled with possible dangers. Naruto was confident they were both capable of tackling any challenge, but he also knew that there was no room for haughtiness. Arrogance can lead to his own downfall and he cannot afford that. But right now he was happy… he had actually made friends today, genuine ones.

"So how long have you been a ninja?" Hana asked as she wanted to sate her curiosity.

"Since I was eight."

The MEKA pilot dropped her jaws. "EH!?"

"Shinobi in the hidden lands are trained at a very young age." He looked up at the ceiling and imagined himself watching the clouds. "In the village I once lived in I was considered the dead-last. Someone who cannot possibly rise to the top. Every step I took I was considered a joke, someone who couldn't possibly become powerful no matter how hard I tried." He raised his hand formed a fist, clenching it hard. "Now look at me. I am a master swordsman in my own right, and scion to two great shinobi clans. Shinobis from the villages of the hidden lands are coming to Remnant as well… when the time is right I will show them what I am capable of." Naruto then looked back down and grinned at the brunette. "And then I am going to kick their ass."

Hana giggled at his final words. "I'm sure you will. By the way, why is your sword red like Murasama from Metal Gear Rising?"

Naruto waved his hand in a nonchalant manner. "That is just coincidence. It's red because I wanted to honor my mother who had red hair."

"Your mother?" Naruto nodded at her question. "What is she like?"

"I don't honestly know. She died when I was born."

The brunette gasped and felt guilty for asking such a question. "I'm so sorry!"

"Don't be, you did not know."

"Still-"

The redhead gave her an assuring smile. "It's fine, really. I've gotten over the fact that I never knew her. Besides, if I die I'll be able to meet her."

"That doesn't make me feel any better!" The MEKA pilot exclaimed.

"I didn't tell you this because I want your pity." Naruto said as he ran his thumb over the cold metal of his shurikens. "I told you this because I want people to hear my story and tell those who wish to hear it that even a nobody like me can rise to the top. Everyone in this world, be it rich or poor, famous or not, everyone has untapped potential."

Hana smiled at his words.

"You are correct!" A boisterous German voice came through and the two saw a massive man in armor approaching them with a smile. "That is exactly what we in Overwatch think!"

Naruto stood up and bowed to the large man. "You must be Reinhardt. I am Shimada Uzumaki Naruto, scion of the shinobi clans of Shimada and Uzumaki."

"No need to bow to me boy!" Reinhardt gave the young man a boisterous laugh and patted him on the back. "It is good to finally meet a fellow warrior!"

"I am honored to meet you." Naruto said.

The armored man laughed. "And so modest! We will get along just fine!" He then looks over to D-Va and approaches her, handing her a small notebook. "I was wondering if you would sign this for me. It's…" He clears his throat and lowers his voice, whispering to her with a small blush to his face. "…for a friend."

Hana giggles and nods, grabbing a pen and writing her signature on the notebook. "Of course! Here you go. Love, D-Va."

Once the large knight left the room, Naruto snickered and shook his head. "That was definitely for his so called 'friend'."

Hana giggled and nodded in agreement. "I get those kinds of autograph requests quite often, so it's normal for me."

"How do you handle it?" Naruto asked. "The fame I mean."

The brunette shrugged. "I mostly chat with fans online and meet them during conventions. Other than that, I'm mostly at home or on duty, patrolling the coastal cities of my country. What about you?"

"I'm a ninja." Naruto reminded her. "I've done a few assassination on criminals with large bounties. It's how I've been able to survive while travelling the world with my father. Other than doing jobs, I've travelled to China to learn their martial arts. It's really an experience."

"Lucky." Hana's voice was slightly envious. "I don't get to see much, I mean it's the reason why I signed up to become a representative of my country. I wanted to get the chance of travelling to a different world. A different world! How crazy is that?"

Naruto raised a brow. "There is a talking gorilla in the building and his best friend can manipulate time. I think anything is possible."

Both MEKA pilot and shinobi stared at each other for a moment before going into fits laughter. Hidden behind a doorway, Angela Ziegler smiled at the scene before her. It seems she really had nothing to worry about Naruto's mental state. But that doesn't mean she won't be keeping an eye on the young man. She had heard everything during their conversation, that is already cause for concern. She has a feeling that Naruto may be seeking retribution to those who have wronged him. That is not uncommon when it comes to a shinobi clan. She cannot allow someone young like him to think of doing things like revenge.

~oOo~

Next Day

"Sifu!" Genji and Naruto bowed to the omnic monk.

"My pupils." Zenyatta returned the gesture. "So good to see you two doing well."

"You don't look too bad yourself, sifu."

Zenyatta chuckled at the younger shinobi. "Naruto… you seem to be more relaxed, that is good."

"It is all thanks to your teachings, sifu."

"Zenyatta!" Tracer greeted the monk. "It is an honor to meet a member of the Shambali. Mondatta was an inspiration to me."

"To us all." Zenyatta said. "I miss him greatly."

The Shambali were formed after the Omnic Crisis, after experiencing what they referred to as a spiritual awakening. They abandoned their pre-programmed lives to establish a communal monastery deep in the Himalayas. After many years of meditation on the nature of existence, they came to the belief that they were more than artificial intelligences and that, like humans, they possessed the essence of a soul. Recognizing the spiritual equality they held with humans, the monks, led by the enigmatic robot known as Tekhartha Mondatta, sought to heal the wounds caused by the Omnic Crisis a generation earlier and bring humans and robots back into societal harmony. Their message was embraced by millions around the world, and they became global celebrities. But with Mondatta dead at the hands of a Talon assassin identified to be the Widowmaker, Zenyatta has taken up the mantle of showing the people the Way of the Iris. Zenyatta had long since left the monastery and became a wandering guru, travelling the world and helping people overcome their personal struggles and finding inner peace.

Naruto and Genji are two of those he had helped along his way.

"Honored sifu." Naruto gave the monk a Wushi salute. "It is wonderful to know that you will be travelling with us."

"This trip itself will be an experience for us all." The monk declared. "To help the faunus with their struggles for equality."

Genji nodded. "We will be more than happy to help you, sifu."

Zenyatta 'smiled'. "Thank you, my pupils."

"I think it's time we get going." Winston announced. "We'll be passing through…"

"Uzushiogakure." All eyes were now on Naruto as he mentioned the name of the place. "My ancestral home." But before Naruto could say anymore, a voice came from behind.

"Wait!" A woman in her thirties with glasses and a large jacket came running in. "Don't leave without me!"

"Mei." Angela smiled at the woman that came up to them. "We were beginning to think you weren't coming."

"I cannot pass up the chance at studying Remnant's forests." Mei said. "I also want to study the hidden while we pass through."

Winston nodded. "Let's go."

~oOo~

Uzushiogakure, Land of Whirlpools

The land of whirlpools was a sight to behold. It was a tranquil place with nature overtaking the area, but it was also a sight of sadness as the ruined village of Uzushiogakure was there for everyone to witness.

"How sad." Mei whispered as she saw the ruined buildings and homes of the once proud village.

"Several shinobi villages destroyed it out of fear of my clan." Naruto said. "We were skilled in both the art of the sword and fuuinjutsu, the art of sealing. They thought us too powerful… and so they ruined us."

"All because of that?" Angela gave the redhead an incredulous look. "That's…"

"Here in the hidden lands, power is everything." Genji explained to his colleagues. "Fear is a norm, and a weapon."

"We won't stay here for long." Naruto whispered as he jumped off the transport and down on the ground.

The redhead had found himself in the village's underground section of the library where Uzumaki clan's most precious jutsu scrolls are kept. Thankfully no one had entered the chamber. Sifting through some of the old scrolls, he took one that was related to kenjutsu and smiled that it was one of the techniques he hasn't learned yet. He didn't really get that much of a chance to go through the library the last time he was here so getting a few more scrolls was always a good thing. Laying a storage scroll down on the floor, he placed the scrolls he had taken on it and made a hand sign, sealing the items within the scroll.

"Oh my!"

Naruto's head snapped upwards and spotted the angel-winged doctor gasping at him. "Doctor… I didn't see you there."

"You made those scrolls disappear."

"Storage scroll that uses a basic sealing or enclosing technique." The redhead explained as he placed the storage scroll into his bag. "To put it simply, it allows me to seal many kinds of items within it by storing them in a pocket dimension, making traveling easier. It is an essential tool for shinobi."

"Amazing!" Winston entered the chamber after hearing the shinobi's words. "May I see one?"

"Of course." Naruto handed the genetically engineered gorilla an empty scroll. "This one is empty at the moment."

"Fascinating, it uses a special kind of paper infused with an energy."

"That energy is chakra." Naruto explained. "Similar to the ones Zenyatta uses for his orbs. It's still a mystery how omnics are able to channel them. Perhaps they were really blessed by Buddha."

"Do you mind if I have this so I can study it?"

The Uzumaki scion nodded. "Go ahead, I can always make more."

"Many thanks, Naruto!"

Mei certainly got her samples as the plants here were nothing like she had ever seen. Naruto, Hana, Zenyatta, and Genji were at the graves where many of the village's people, both ninja and civilian, were laid to rest long ago. All of them were on their knees with their hands clasped together, paying their respects to those who had lost their lives to a pointless war. Many of those who died have yet to even learn how to walk… it was a sad sight.

"May their souls find peace within the iris." Zenyatta prayed as he set a flower down on one of the graves.

Once again, the four bowed before turning to head back to the transport. Once back on, Naruto was met with sympathetic looks as even though he was born here, it was still a part of him. With the ship taking off, they now made their way towards the threshold to Remnant.

"This is the reality that many villages here may face." The redhead stated. "Out here, it is survival of the fittest."

Angela frowned. "It still does not make it right. All those innocent lives because people got too afraid."

"Fear does that." Zenyatta said. "People fear what they do not understand, it makes them become irrational and impulsive."

Naruto sat down in one corner of the transport and saw Hana following after him/

"Are you alright?"

"It's never easy whenever I come to Uzushio to pay my respects. So many waster lives. There are so few of us now."

"Hey." Hana whispered as she placed a hand on his, something that surprised her. "You're not alone here, okay?"

Naruto smiled at her. "Thank you." Looking through the window, he saw the beautiful view of Uzushiogakure's island as the transport approached the threshold that will take them into Remnant.

"It's beautiful." Hana said.

"Yeah." Naruto said with a nod of agreement. But he didn't mean the island.

Beautiful.

~oOo~

Remnant

Vale City, Kingdom of Vale

It was already night when they had arrived. At the Vale council's expense they were given a place to stay at a hotel while Naruto and Hana will be staying in Beacon Academy as second years. As such their luggage has been sent to the academy the moment they had arrived, well it was mostly Hana's belongings since Naruto has all of his stuff in storage scrolls.

The city was peaceful but Zenyatta could already see the areas where the faunus neighborhoods are. Even though Vale was considered one of the less racially discriminative kingdoms, the separation between races was still evident. The humans lived on this side of the city, and the faunus on the other. It deeply saddened the omnic monk that his race wasn't the only ones facing such hardships. But now that he is here, he can help them with their pains. But most of all, two of his brightest pupils will be at his side to aid them.

"Where are you going?" Hana asked as she watched Naruto make his way out of the hotel.

"I'm going to stretch my legs for a bit." The redhead replied as he put on his hood and mask. "I'll mostly keep to the rooftops so I won't attract any unneeded attention. So don't worry about me."

"Naruto." Angela called out as she walked up to him.

"I'll be fine, doctor." The shinobi said with a smile behind his mask. He didn't know why the great Mercy was worrying about him so much. On their way here from Uzushio, she made sure that he wasn't depressed or having any negative thoughts. For a doctor that was normal but… she was practically babying him. He wasn't used to that kind of treatment. "Just… I'll be sure to be back by midnight, okay?"

Before Angela could stop him, a hand went up to her shoulder and saw… "Zenyatta?"

"He is not used to that kind of treatment you are giving him, doctor. He prefers his independence."

The healer sighed. "I'm just worried about him. He's still young and…"

The omnic monk leaned in as he felt that there must be a reason that why she is acting like this. "Doctor?"

Angela bit her lip before turning around. "It's nothing."

All the while, Hana looked on before heading back inside. She'll be heading to Beacon with Naruto tomorrow, so there's nothing really for her to worry about. Naruto is more than capable of taking care of himself.

~oOo~

The night was young and he figured that it was a weekend. He could see the various people enjoying their nights, buying their drinks and having a good time at restaurants and bars. It made him smile that there were some humans interacting with their faunus friends. Jumping to another set of rooftops, he neared the deeper parts of the city where the city's port is located. It was simple really. Areas like this with little light source at night would be the perfect place for shady dealings and activities to occur. Taking a leap forward he landed on the head of a malfunctioning lamp post and stood there, surveying the area. He took a deep breath and tapped into his tenant's chakra, turning his eyes from violet into a blood red with swirly pupils like the Uzumaki clan emblem. Right after Hanzo had nursed him back to health, he had struck a deal with the Kyuubi.

Flashback

The nine-tailed fox chuckled as the blond enters his mindscape. "The first time my jailer sees me and he wishes to use more of my power? You are bolder than I thought."

"I want power. I want power for my own selfish reasons. I want to make sure that I do not lose like that again."

"Yes…" The Kyuubi hummed as he remembered Naruto's disastrous loss to the Uchiha. "That would be problematic, not only to you, but to me. If you die, I die, simple as that. But tell me, why should I let you use my power?"

"Because it would benefit us both." Naruto declared. "You are the Kyuubi no Yoko, the most powerful of the nine bijuu. What would you think if you saw that your jinchuruki is a weakling? I barely made it out with my life against Gaara…"

"YES!" The Kyuubi suddenly got angry at the memory of facing the one-tailed raccoon. The fox roared and slammed his head up against his. "You nearly embarrassed me that day, brat! You had to rely on a fucking toad to defeat that dumb raccoon! A TOAD!"

"So what's it going to be, fur ball?"

The fox growled at the blond and glared at him before going into a deep laughter. "You are not as dumb as I thought, brat. Let me ask you. Why do you wish to use my power?"

"Simple." Naruto chirped as he grinned at the bijuu. "I just want it."

The fox chuckled. "Very well… I will grant you a dojutsu of my own device. Be warned, I will not go easy on you when it comes to training you in using my power."

Naruto bowed. "Of course… Kyuubi."

End Flashback

The eye of the fox granted him to see through many visions, much like using an infrared goggle. It allowed him to see things similar to a thermal imaging goggle, but it also allowed him to see through night perfectly. Whenever he was on a bounty hunt his prey never got away. People who he deems a threat or an enemy are red, friendlies were blue, and non-combatants were white, everything else in his vision was black and white. But his eyes not only gave him a unique vision, it also heightened his senses a hundred fold. In a way he has become a pseudo-faunus.

The area here appears to be quiet but that's the thing. If it is quiet then something is going on. He took a data pad from his pack and examined the contents of the device. The world of Remnant may be at a time of peace but that doesn't mean that there isn't someone trying to disrupt it. Right now this world seems to be having a problem with an organization created for peace violent, wrecking and burning shops that refuse to serve faunus. Their wish is to wipe out humanity for the cause of faunus supremacy. That cannot be allowed.

Naruto made an oath to serve the greater good by whatever means necessary. If that means dirtying his hands then so be it. Wetwork is something he is not unfamiliar with. Out in the distance he heard an explosion go off with a small mushroom-shaped smoke going up in the air. "Well, what do we have here?"

~oOo~

Down in the docks a battle ensued as a raven-haired cat faunus and a blond monkey faunus fought a cadre of White Fang insurgents, ironically led by a human male with orange hair and a top hat. The monkey faunus was quick with his feet. Wielding a bo staff, he twirled and swung his weapon, knocking out several thugs that got in his way. The cat faunus wasn't far behind as she swung her katana-pistol hybrid. Her scabbard also had a sharp edge, doubling it as a second sword.

The monkey faunus spun his staff and blocked an explosive shot from the orange-haired man's gun cane.

"He's mine!" The cat faunus roared and rushed in, using her natural speed and semblance to create shadows, making her look she was teleporting around the place. But the orange-haired man was actually putting up a good fight and easily defended himself from her flurry of attacks. With the way he fought he managed to land a few good hits on her and knocked her away.

Thankfully the blond intervened and split his staff into two, turning them into nun-chucks that doubled as lever-action shotguns. The amount of shots that were going off kept the criminal occupied, allowing Blake to go in and knock him off his feet.

The orange-haired man growled before looking up and saw a cargo container still attached to a carne. Aiming his cane gun up he fired off a shot and sent the metallic container down, separating the two faunus with the blond facing the barrel of Roman's weapon.

Just then a flurry of shurikens came out from the shadows and struck several White Fang grunts on their backs and chests. This was then followed by a gust of wind as red slashes engulfed the area. All eyes were then on a certain figure in black with orange lines on his hood and shoulders, holding a blood red blade that he was just placing it back into its sheath.

"Uzumaki Iaijutsu: Guren no Issei! (Cry of the Red Lotus)"

*Clink*

The moment the sword clicked back into its sheath, the White Fang grunts hit by the red slashes burst into showers of blood as their bodies were split wide open. The blood burst out like a flower blooming in the night. None of those who had been hit by the shurikens and the sword survived. Blake Belladonna, former member of the White Fang, had just witnessed a dozen White Fang grunts slain by this stranger in three seconds flat.

"What the-!?" Roman Torchwick, a wanted criminal in Remnant, gaped at the scene. This was not part of the plan. He could no doubt handle these two kids but this guy… he just killed twelve men without even a second thought!

One of the grunts who had witnessed this roared and fired his gun. The bullet soared through the air, straight towards the dark hooded stranger. But then all eyes widened as the stranger drew his sword with lightning fast speed, faster than anything they had ever seen. They were frozen in place as the blade made contact with the bullet right down its center. But for the swordsman, everything around him slowed down. His eyes were on the blade as the bullet began to split in half with its metal just gliding over it. Instead of getting hit by the bullet as the gunner intended, it just got split in half, flying off in two directions, completely avoiding him.

"Woah." Sun, Blake's friend, gaped at what had just happened. "Did that just happen?"

"Who the hell are you!?" Roman barked as his plans were now officially ruined by this unknown. "You know hard it is to do this kind of heist!?"

"I care not for your problems, criminal." The swordsman replied with a slight Asian accent. "You and your kind only wish to disturb the peace. I am simply the executioner." Flinging his arms forward once he sheathed his blade, dozens of shurikens came out of his sleeves and struck the White Fang grunts in front of him. But what was strange was that they all ignored their Aura. Seeing that they were distracted, he rushed in and drew his sword once more. Everything else was a blur.

Blake couldn't move. Although technically the White Fang were her enemy now, they were still her kin. And she could not bear the sight of them being slaughtered like this.

As the bullheads in the air fired their machineguns at the swordsman, he deflected them with his sword, preventing each and every one of them from hitting him. Off to the side a bright green laser sliced some of the bullheads open, sending them and their occupants crashing down.

"Blake!" A red-haired girl with a red hood came rushing up to the cat faunus. "Are you…" The girl stopped short as she saw the several dead bodies. "…alright? What… what happened?"

"GRR!" Roman growled as he retreated into a bullhead, ordering the pilot to take off with the rest. Tonight they will be coming home empty handed. "These kids just keep getting weirder and weirder."

"Though your aid was unneeded, it is not unwelcome." The swordsman said with gratitude in his voice as he approached the orange-haired girl that fired the laser. "You are a very unique omnic. Sifu Zenyatta will no doubt wish to meet you."

"You…" The girl's eyes widened. "You know what I am?"

The swordsman nodded. "Is there something wrong?"

"I…" The orangette lowered her head. "You're not bothered that I'm a machine?"

The swordsman smiled behind his mask. "Humans… machines… we are all one within the iris. It is a pleasure to meet you, I am Storm Shadow."

"Oh!" The girl then perked up. "My name is Penny, it is a pleasure to meet you!"

Storm Shadow then bowed before patting her head. He became amused by her enthusiasm. "If you wish to meet with Sifu Zenyatta, come to the Vale Royal Palace Hotel tomorrow and simply ask for him. I have no doubt he will wish to meet you."

Penny nodded vigorously. "Okay!"

"Good. Now then, I must take my leave."

All eyes were on Storm Shadow as he disappeared in a plume of black smoke, leaving a feather behind as it dissipated.

Blake had to hold Ruby and cradle her as she was now traumatized by the several dead bodies of her kin on the ground with pools of blood forming a large one.

But one questioned remained in her mind.

Who is Storm Shadow?

Vale Royal Palace Hotel

"It seems you have been busy tonight."

Naruto turned his head as he entered his hotel room through the window, spotting Genji right at the door. "Uncle."

Genji grabbed the remote and turned it on, showing him the footage of policemen at Vale's docks covering up several bodies of White Fang grunts. "What did you find?"

"They were… strangely… led by one Roman Torchwick, a human."

The older shinobi raised an eyebrow. "But I thought the White Fang were…"

"Anti-human?" Naruto furrowed his brows. "That's what I thought as well. But it seems that they are up to something. What I do know is that he seems to be supplying them as he may have supplied these people with transport aircraft."

"We have a lot of work to do." Genji muttered. "Get some sleep. We will tell discuss with the rest tomorrow morning."

"Yes uncle."

"Oh and Naruto?" Genji gave his nephew a smile. "Excellent work. As expected of a shinobi of the Shimada and Uzumaki, you handled the situation well."

The redhead bowed. "Thank you, uncle."

Unknown Location

"So you're telling me… that you weren't to get anything… and lose at least most of the men given to you?"

Roman gulped as he was stared down by a woman in a red dress. Her fiery eyes peering into him like she was staring into his very soul. All he could do was nod fearfully. "S-Some ninja guy came in out of nowhere, shurikes and katana and stuff. Took out thirty guys in seconds, like they were nothing. People in the news said he's called Storm Shadow or something…"

"Storm Shadow…" The woman muttered.

"He calls himself the executioner of… people like me."

"A vigilante." The woman crossed her arms as she turned to two of her associates behind her. "A rogue element with a vendetta against criminals and the like. Emerald."

"Yes ma'am?" A girl with bright emerald hair stepped forward.

"Add this Storm Shadow to the list. No doubt he will be an annoyance to our plans. Also, find out who he is and who he may be with."

Emerald nodded.

They had a lot of work to do.

Naruto's Mindscape

Deep within Naruto's mind as he slept, he sat on a cliff overlooking a beautiful valley. It had been a while since Naruto had decided to change the outlook of his mindscape, chancing it from a sewer to a mountain overlooking a valley filled with life. He sat on a rock, holding a piece of wood and a carving knife, creating a masterpiece.

"You've been at it for a while." Kurama stated as he lay behind the redhead, relaxing as always.

"Helps keep me at peace."

"You've come a long way from what you once were."

"Yeah."

"I certainly enjoyed what you did a while ago."

Naruto harrumphed. "They made their choice just I made mine. They sowed their fate when they chose to terrorize innocents and upset the balance for the sake of their misguided beliefs. In a way… I'm a Shinigami."

Kurama cackled as he stood up and went back into the forest where his cave is. "And that is why you are my favorite jinchuruki. You have no problem taking a life."

The redhead grunted as he placed the wood carving down and enjoyed the view. Moments later a figure appeared behind him. He had bright gold hair and wore a long white cloak with fiery patterns on the tresses. On the back were the kanji letters, 'Yondaime Hokage'.

"Even after you're dead you seem to always have the worst timing."

The man chuckled nervously as he scratched the back of his head. "Y-Yeah…"

Naruto stands up and turns around, bringing him face to face with the one man responsible for his horrible childhood… if he can even call it that. "You know… I have half a mind to sic Kurama on you. I'm pretty sure he'll like that a lot."

Minato Namikaze, Naruto's father, let out a sheepish chuckle as he felt like he was being stared down by his wife. Heck, Naruto looks so much like her now. "P-Please don't."

The redhead huffs as he sinks his hands into his pockets and kicks a pebble away. "So... what do you want?"

Minato probably expected this kind of reaction from him, but it still didn't make it any less painful. "I just want to talk."

The younger shinobi sighs as he sits back down with a somewhat annoyed look. Looking at the man… he just can't bring himself to hate him for some reason. In the end, he nodded. "Alright."

NA: And that's a wrap! Hope you all enjoyed this!

So I need all of your help… what should I name Naruto's dojutsu that is 'coincidentally' similar to Eagle Vision.
