Chapter 2
In this story I'm not going to make Naruto godlike. I started out with that idea but I thought that would be boring to read.
Disclaimer :
I don't own Naruto or Highschool dxd.
This story was just a thought I had I had in my head and thought,' why not'.
Please enjoy

Be under obligation to no one-the only obligation you have is to love one another. Whoever does this has obeyed the Law. The commandments, "Do not commit adultery; do not commit murder; do not steal; do not desire what belongs to someone else " -all these, and any others besides, are summed up in the one command, "Love your neighbour as you love yourself." If you love someone, you will never do him wrong; to love, then, is to obey the whole Law.
Romans 13:8-10

Unknown plain
'Darkness, darkness everywhere. Everywhere I go it follows, no matter how hard I try to run from it, it's always never far away from me!' Those where the thoughts that ran through the mind of the man floating in the space of darkness.
According to his stature you could clearly see that this was a human male.
'Naruto,... what does this word truly mean to me, ... and everyone around me?
To say that he looked awful was the understatement of the century. His pants were nothing but rags that looked like shorts, and with a simple pull or tug, they looked like they would tear. On his foot he had on one open toed black boot, the other boot long lost during whatever battle or hell hole he just came out of. Not that it all mattered now. Due to the missing right limb, and the amount of blood he'd lost, he was gonna die pretty soon, and he knew it. Kurama was nowhere in sight, he couldn't even sense the beast presence. He couldn't even go inside his own mindscape, so it was pretty much over for him.
At that moment all of his past battle memories returned.
"Sasuke!...Kurama!...everyone!..."
He remembered everything, the war, the fight with Madara, finally sealing both Kaguya as well as black Zetsu and then,... their final clash. After Sasuke finally admitted defeat, he remembered closing his eyes and then all of a sudden he was here in this place. Where was he, and what happened to Sasuke?
This was really freaky, he couldn't even enter his mindscape and to add insult to injury, his right arm was missing.
With no time for him to monitor, it started to feel like he was floating for hours on end, and then it felt like days.
At that moment he had enough and was ready to scream. Until...
A bright light appeared about 10 feet in front of him. It was the brightest, most blinding light he had ever seen in his entire life. The light itself felt like it was physically touching him, it was the most comforting feeling he had ever felt. Amazing, completely amazing, never had he felt so completely warm, even when he merged with Kurama completely.
After covering his eyes he tried adjusting to the warm, but blinding light. At that moment something that looked llike a human form appeared surrounded by that very light. It was a male if what he saw was anything to go by.
After a few seconds his eyes adjusted little by little to the once unbearable light.
The figure was wearing what looked like a white robe, whiter than the purest of snow, and around his waist he had on a gold sash. On his feet he had on simple pair of brown Roman leather sandals and below his feet was something that was really hard to believe. Swirling seven lights, it looked like stars, seven stars swirling around the mysterious being's feet. He had his left hand out, in it he held what looked like a white flame. In his right hand he held what looked like a solid gold book. The only thing Naruto couldn't make out was his face.
The light did the impossible, it intensified ten fold.
Unable to handle the blinding light Naruto closed his eyes. The strange thing about the thing in front of him, Naruto couldn't even sense a single drop of chakra from this guy, but he could feel some kind of light energy coming from the man. 'Th...This pressure it's so warm and yet... so... scary! Is this...is this where I'm gonna die?'
Many different thoughts and emotions went through the blonde in that very second.
"Wh...Who...a...are...you?" to say he was terrified was a an understatement, his legs felt like jelly.
"DO NOT FEAR MY SON." The voice, sounding like the booming of thunder, funny as it is, it felt natural, comforting even.
"Wha...What...a...ar...are...y...you?"
"HAHAHA, WHAT AM I? HAHAHAHA. WHY I AM THAT IS, I AM THE GREAT 'LAMB'." answered the being in an amused manner.
"Wha...What...i...is...tha...that...s...su...suppose...to...mean?" asked the blonde, still awestruck.
"HAHA, IT MEANS I AM THE GREAT 'LAMB'. MY NAME IS, JASHUA, ALSO KNOWN AS THE OMNIPOTENT, OMNIPRESENT SON OF GOD. I AM THE LIGHT OF THE WORLD AND SON OF BEING WHO CREATED YOU NARUTO, IN FACT I WAS THERE WHEN CREATION CAME TO BE. I NOW ALONE SUSTAIN EXISTENCE AND I ALONE AM WHAT LEFT OF MY FATHER. ANYMORE QUESTIONS CHILD." explained the being.
As they conversated, the very plain surrounding them changed. Gone was the dark void, now he was standing on a floating gold cycler platform above puffy clouds. A sunset shading the clouds a gorgeous orange pink colour. Beautiful utterly beautiful.
To say he was awestruck was an understatement of the millennium. This guy just said he was a God, and not just any god, the son of the one true God of all . Judging by the show this guy just pulled, Naruto had a feeling he wasn't joking. This guy...could kill him if he wanted to and at the state the blonde was now, he couldn't possibly dream of taking this guy on.
"CALM YOURSELF MY SON I HAVE NO INTENTION OF HARMING YOU NOR ANYTHING MY HATH CREATED FOR THAT MATTER, I AM...THAT IS AFTER ALL. HERE LET ME HEAL YOU UP MY CHILD."
With that a pillar of light engulfed Naruto and then next second it was gone. It was the greatest feeling ever, it felt like bliss. Then next second the pillar of light was gone, what was left shock Naruto. Here he was dressed in the same clothes as the being in front of him. Without those light thing.
"HOW'S THAT FEEL? I KNOW IT DOESN'T HAVE ANY ORANGE, BUT I BELIEVE IT LOOKS RATHER GOOD ON YOU." said the God.
"Am I dead? Where am I? What is this place?"asked the blonde a little bit freaked out by the entities previous display of power.
"HAHAHA, CALM YOURSELF MY CHILD YOU ARE NOT DEAD BUT RATHER I AM THE ONE WHO BROUGHT YOU HERE, OF MY OWN ACCORD." answered Jesus.
"WE ARE IN A PLACE WHERE NO ONE CAN DISTURB US NARUTO, THIS IS AN ABYSS ONE OF MANY THAT I HAVE CREATED ACROSS THE MULTI-VERSE IN ORDER TO TEMPORARY IMPRISON MY FATHER'S OTHER FALLEN CHILDREN. I ONLY WANT TO SPEAK WITH YOU MY CHILD, IN A PLACE WHERE WE WILL NOT BE DISTURBED. "
"WHAT! This is a joke right, or it has to be a genjutsu, it has to be. Hahaha! Real original Sasuke, I must say I am impressed by the originality. Or I must have been caught in the Infinite Tsukiyomi somehow. It explains what you are, where I am and why I can't feel Kurama anywhere. " said the blonde in disbelief.
"OH YOU! OF SO LITTLE FAITH. I HAVE SEEN THE ESSENCE OF YOUR HEART CHILD AND I HAVE FOUND YOU WORTHY!
IT IS YOU THAT I HAVE CHOSEN TO SPREAD MY WORD ONCE AGAIN OVER MY LOST SHEEP, AND TO LEAD THEM BACK TO ME, THEIR LORD AND MASTER FOR I HAVE SPOKEN. I AM THE LORD THEIR GOD, THE LAMB OF GOD, THROUGH MY BEGOTTEN SACRIFICE EVERYTHING THAT EXIST I BROUGHT IT FELLOWSHIP WITH MY FATHER. "explained Jesus.
I HAVE NO RIVAL, I HAVE NO EQUAL. I AM THE BEGINNING, MIDDLE AND END. I AM THAT WAS, IS AND IS TO COME. I OFFER A TASK FOR YOU NARUTO, OR SHOULD I SAY 'ASHURA', I WANT YOU TO BRING BACK MY CHILDREN. BRING THEM BACK TO THEIR GOD AND TRUE FATHER'S TEACHINGS, AND IF ANYONE OPPOSES YOU ON YOUR MISSION. HE WILL OPPOSES ME YOUR GOD AND LORD. HE SHALL NOT STAND BUT BE CUT DOWN BY MY BLADE OF RIGHTEOUSNES."
' Shit!' Naruto knew if he said anything rude or out of place to this guy, he would be pretty much fucked. This so called God of existence easily surpassed the Ten-Tails and Kaguya in terms of the raw power, no doubt about that. The light energy coming from this guy was overwhelming, it was strange, it felt alive and unending. Just by standing there he was releasing wave apon wave light energy, and he didn't even look like he was trying. It was like the light had a mind of its own, a will even.
"If I say no?" Naruto asked, not really wanting to know the answer.
"THEN YOU ARE A SELFISH CHILD, NARUTO. I WILL NOT FORCE YOU TO ACCEPT MY PROPOSAL. HOWEVER KNOW THAT THROUGH YOUR DENIAL OF MY OFFER, ENTIRE UNIVERSES WILL COME TO RUIN BECAUSE OF YOUR DECISION.
'What the hell!' thought the blonde to himself. On one hand he would probably never see his friends ever again if he accepted this tesk, but he would be saving them indirectly from this ultimate evil and corruption. On second hand if he didn't then he could live his life here in the Elemental Nations and continue his life being happy dovey, but eventually die to the hands of this ultimate corrupting evil.
Either way it didn't look good for him.
"IF YOU'RE WORRIED ABOUT WHAT WILL HAPPEN TO YOUR WORLD, DO NOT BE. YOUR COMRADES ARE TO BE TRUSTED AND ESPECIALLY YOUR BROTHER, INDRA."
"How did you know about that? And how do you know that he won't just try to destroy the Elemental Nation again will I gone?"
"I AM THE GOD OF DEITIES THEMSELVES, OR DID YOU FORGET THAT SO FAST. DID YOU HONESTLY BELIEVE THAT THE REINCARNATION CYCLE HAPPENED BECAUSE YOU OR YOUR BROTHER WISHED IT TO BE?
NO I ALONE CONTROL WHAT HAPPENS TO A SOUL SHOULD IT PASS FROM THE PHYSICAL PLAIN. I KEPT REINCARNATING YOU TWO, KNOWING THAT THROUGH CONSTANT STRUGGLES YOU WOULD BOTH CHANGE AND ONCE AGAIN HUMBLE YOUR HEARTS AND TO HUMBLE YOU BOTH. THEN IT FINALLY HAPPENED WITH THIS CURRENTLY VESSEL BODY OF YOURS AND SASUKE'S. I HAVE SEEN HIS NEW HEART AND I MUST TELL YOU THAT I AM PLEASED WITH BOTH OF YOU, AND ALTHOUGH I ALREADY KNOW YOUR ANSWER TO THIS, WHAT DO YOU SAY?"
"I don't know what to say, yet. Could you give me some more time to think about it?" asked the blonde.
"I UNDERSTAND, AND IN THE MEANTIME HOW ABOUT I GIVE YOU A FEW GUESTS."
With that said a enormous blinding flash of light appeared next to Naruto. It took a lot of effort not to be blinded by that very light.
As the light faded, right next to Naruto stood someone who he never would have expected.
"Sasuke!" yelled the blonde in shock.
"Naruto! Where are we? What is this place?" the last Uchiha asked in total and utter shock.
"I CAN ANSWER THAT QUESTION MY SON." answer the Sovereign Lord of creation.
And that's when it hit Sasuke, with just a glance towards thing in front of him, it hit him. Even with his Rinne-Sharingan and eternal Mangakyou Sharingan flaring he still couldn't look straight at the being in front of him. He was worse than an ant against this monster, no Kaguya was less than an ant to this creature. He was an ant compared to Kaguya and Kaguya was less than an ant if you compared her to this thing. Its power... its power was never ending, he knew that by a thought he would be erased from existence.
The way this thing, whatever it was said son. As terrifying as 'ITS' voice sounded it felt comforting somehow. Who was this being.
"YOU ARE IN A VOID, AN ENDLESS HOLE OF IMPRISONMENT, DESIGNED TO KEEP MY MORE POWERFUL CREATIONS UNTIL THE TIME OF JUDGMENT. YOU TWO ARE HERE FOR A DIFFERENT REASON ALTOGETHER. "
An endless sunset sky? Now that didn't seem like a prison.
"That doesn't quite explain why we're here though. " Sasuke tried to will himself to continue, and that wasn't easy. It took all the will power he had not throw up under that power. "Who or what are you anyway?" asked the sole Uchiha in genuine curiosity.
"ME? I AM THE GREAT 'I AM'. THE SON OF GOD AND CURRENTLY THE GOD OF GODS THEMSELVES AND THE CREATOR OF REALITY AND ALL. HOWEVER YOU MAY ADDRESS ME AS JASHUA. stated the Son of the GxG.
" JASHUA? What does someone like you want with us then." asked the raven head scared of the answer.
" AS I HAD EXPLAINED TO ASURA HERE, THERE IS A GREAT EVIL THAT SHALL BE FREED FROM IT CHAINS. I NEED HIM AND IF POSSIBLE YOU TOO TO STOP IT AND I WAS HOPING YOU WOULD ASSURE HIM THAT EVERYTHING IN YOUR WORLD SHALL REMAIN PEACEFUL. "
' Great Evil? What evil?' Thought the Uchiha in distress.
" What evil are you talking about, the only great evil was Kaguya and Black Zetsu and we sealed them for good." stated the rinnegan user.
"I SPEAK NOT OF HER, NO. THERE SHALL ARISE AN EVIL FAR BEYOND HER. THIS BEING WILL HAVE NO EMOTIONS, IT WILL CRAVE ONLT DESTRUCTION AND CARNAGE. IT WILL BE KNOWN AS THE DEVOURER OF DIMENSIONS AND THOSE WHO HAVE INTELLIGENCE SHALL KNOW THE NAME STANDS FOR A NUMBER OF A MAN, THE NUMBER THE 666, HE WHO IS AGAINST ME. I FEAR THAT YOU AND ALL MY CHILDREN WILL NOT SURVIVE THAT GREAT DAY, SO I HAVE SHORTENED IT." Prophesied the GOD of Gods.
This time it was the blonde who asked the question.
"If it's so dangerous why don't you step in to stop it?"
I mean really, the guy was a supposed god. What hope did two humans hope to achieve if this thing was a million times more powerful than Kaguya herself.
And with that there was a deafening silence.
"TELL ME MY SONS, HOW ARE BONDS FORMED AND UNDERSTANDING ACHIEVED?"
How are bonds formed? What kind of question is that.
"What does that have to do with anything?"
RATHER ANSWER THE QUESTION. "
This was really confconfusing the shit out of both of them.
"Well, bonds are formed through pain and understanding one another's suffering, sharing in their past. Helping each other to overcome your troubles. Standing by them, and... willing to go to hell and back for them. "
With that said the blonde turned his gaze towards the last Uchiha, and did the most shocking thing towards the last Uchiha. He grinned.
Sasuke was shocked beyond belief at what he had just said.
"Naruto... hmph! Idiot, guess you really did rub of me." and with that the Uchiha did the only thing that came to mind, he smirked.
"HEHEHE!" and for the first time during their encounter with the God, the GxG broke out in laughter.
'Why is he laughing, isn't this serious?!' thought the Uchiha.
"THIS IS SERIOUS YOUNG INDRA."
"Wh...What...h..how...how did you know what I was thinking?"
"I AM THE GOD OF GODS REMEMBER. NOW AS I GOING TO SAY, YES THAT IS CORRECT ASURA. HOW GOOD AND PLEASANT IT IS WHEN MY PEOPLE LIVE TOGETHER IN UNITY! NOW ON TO THE NEXT QUESTION, ASURA THIS ONE IS FOR YOU."
"Alright! Bring it! " yelled the blonde in anticipation.
"CARM YOURSELF CHILD. HOW IS... UNDERSTANDING ACHIEVED? "
"Ahhhhh...ahhh...?" then it hit him, Pervy-Sensei once spoke of this. "Understanding, an old man once told that, understanding is knowing when and how to act to challenges in this world all giving other's a second chance.
Knowing the other person's pain and choosingto help, what good is gaining the world if a person ends up losing themselves. " answered the blonde.
"EXCELLENT! IT WOULD SEEM YOU TWO TRULY HAVE CHANGED. NOW LET ME TELL YOU WHAT WOULD HAPPEN IF I HAD TO INTERVENE WITH THE DESTRUCTION THAT IS TO FOLLOW. "
" IF I TOOK CARE OF THIS MYSELF, NO ONE WOULD TRULY APPRECIATE THE LIVES THEY HAVE BEEN GIVEN AND THEY WOULD END UP NOT APPRECIATE EACH OTHER. IF I INTERFERE THEY WILL LIVE, BUT THEY WILL LIVE IN FEAR OF ME. SOME WOULD EVEN HATE ME FOR WHAT I HAVE DONE. HOW GREAT IS IT WHEN MY PEOPLE LIVE IN UNITY AND LOVE." preached the LORD.
"IN ORDER FOR PEOPLE TO TRULY UNITE THEY MUST HAVE A SINGLE ADVERSARY TO STAND AGAINST. JUST LIKE IT HAS BEEN IN YOUR WORLD, AND SO I GIVE THEM AN EVIL TO FIGHT AGAINST. HOWEVER I FEAR THAT THIS EVIL IS TOO MUCH FOR THEM TO OVERCOME SO I ASK YOU TWO."
"Wa...Wait, WHAT?!" yelled both shinobi shocked and asking at the same time in utter disbelief at what they just heard from the being in front of them.
" What...what do you mean, ' I give them an evil to fight against '? " asked the blonde still not processing the information given to them.
"Does that mean you're the one who organised the whole thing, ... the entire Ten-Tails plot? Your responsible for it all." asked the raven head in utter disbelief.
With that Sasuke's legs could no longer support his bodies weight anymore.
Naruto took a look at the broken Uchiha, kneeling there, unmoving at all. His gaze moved back and forth between the Primordial God and Sasuke, waiting to see what both would do.
Never... never...never in his life has he ever felt anything at all this much. Naruto was shaking in rage, never in his entire life had he felt this much pain and anguish. This being, no demon in front of them claimed to be responsible for creating the Ten-Tails and being responsible for all the pain in their entire life.
"You... you bastard...YOU BUSTARD! How dare you, you're telling us that our pain and all the death in our world was all apart of your plan to bring us together! Who are you to play with our lives like that! " with that the blonde was about to charge at the God.
Fortunately he was stopped in his tracks by a hand on his shoulder.
"...Sasuke..." There, the reincarnation of Indra stood behind his younger brother, gripping Naruto's only arm.
This time the Uchiha was the one to step forward. "Who... Who do you think you are to play with people's lives." His voice was cold and emotionless. This sent a shiver down the blondes back.
There was a short silence. With that, the Rinne-Sharingan user chose to continue. "Answer me dammit!" After that there was a chilling pause among the combatants.
The blonde took it on himself to continue for his best friend. "Who ever you think you are you have no right to play with peoples' lives. You have no right to play Go-" the couldn't even continue with the sudden furry from the God.
"WHO IS THIS THAT DARKENS COUNSEL BY WORDS WITHOUT KNOWLEDGE? GIRD UP YOUR LOINS LIKE A MAN,
I WILL QUESTION YOU, AND YOU SHALL DECLARE TO ME!"
"WHERE WERE YOU WHEN I LAID THE FOUNDATION OF THE EARTH?
TELL ME, IF YOU HAVE UNDERSTANDING. WHO DETERMINED ITS MEASUREMENTS —SURELY YOU KNOW!
OR WHO STRETCHED THE LINE UPON IT?"
"ON WHAT WERE ITS BASES SUNK,
OR WHO LAID ITS CORNERSTONE
WHEN THE MORNING STARS SANG TOGETHER AND ALL THE HEAVENLY BEINGS * SHOUTED FOR JOY?" Both Naruto and Sasuke were frozen by the amount of pressure.
"OR WHO SHUT IN THE SEA WITH DOORS
WHEN IT BURST OUT FROM THE WOMB?—
WHEN I MADE THE CLOUDS ITS GARMENT, AND THICK DARKNESS ITS SWADDLING BAND,
AND PRESCRIBED BOUNDS FOR IT,
AND SET BARS AND DOORS,
AND SAID, 'THUS FAR SHALL YOU COME, AND NO FURTHER,
AND HERE SHALL YOUR PROUD WAVES BE STOPPED'?!"
"HAVE YOU COMMANDED THE MORNING SINCE YOUR DAYS BEGAN,
AND CAUSE THE DAWN TO KNOW ITS PLACE,
SO THAT IT MIGHT TAKE HOLD OF THE SKIRTS OF THE EARTH."
"AND FINALLY, ... HAVE YOU COMPREHENDED THE EXPENSE OF THE EARTH?
DECLARE TO ME, IF YOU KNOW ALL THIS!"
Both ninja were left kneeling, mouths wide open.
"EVERYTHING I DID OR DO IS FOR THE BENEFIT OF MY CHILDREN, FOR EACH UNIVERSE I PLACE A TREE OF, OR AS YOU KNOW IT AS 'THE GOD TREE'. AND THOSE WHO EAT OF IT WILL SURELY DIE. "
"FOR YOU SEE IF I DID NOT BRING FORTH THE TEN-TAILS, THEN YOUR WORLD WOULD CONTINUE TO TAKE INNOCENT BLOOD."
"ACCEPT MY OFFER AND HELP YOUR OTHER BRETHREN UNDERSTAND LOVE JUST AS YOU HAVE."
"You're... you're joking right, ...after what you just told us, you expect us to up say 'yeah let's go!' like some kind of idiots." this time it was the blonde who intervened.
Naruto took a glance towards the Uchiha, still kneeling there head tiled downwards.
'Sasuke.' The blonde could only relate to his best friend as much as he can. Your entire family being sacrificed, just for some sick plan to bring people together. If this beings statement was true, then his parents were also used for this guys sickening plot.
"KNOW THAT I AM VERY SORRY FOR THAT, BUT IT WAS AND IS THE ONLY WAY TO BRING MY CHILDREN TOGETHER. I REMEMBER YOU YOURSELF ONCE SAYING 'I YOU HAVE SOMETHING TRULY WORTH PROTECTING, THAT'S WHEN YOU TRULY BECOME STRONG'.
WELL THAT'S NOT FAR FROM THE TRUTH BUT YOU LACK SOME MORE INFORMATION. LIKE WHEN YOU FIGHT TO PROTECT SOMETHING YOU INDIRECTLY LEARN TO LOVE WHAT YOU ARE PROTECTING. FOR ONE, YOU ONCE HATED THE LEAF VILLAGE, BUT YOU TOLD YOURSELF THAT HAD TO PROTECT IT FOR IRUKA'S SAKE AND IN THE END YOU FELL IN LOVE WITH IT, OR AM I WRONG?"
" No! You're wrong, I wanted to protect my home from the very beginning. It's my home and its all I've ever known!"
"I've made my very first bonds there, like the old man, Iruka, Squad 7!My parents loved it and they sacrificed their own lives to protect it and to protect me!" There was a short pause before the blonde continued.
" It's my home and I would gladly put my life on the line for the Village Hidden in the Leaves! "
CLAP! ...CLAP! ...CLAP!
YOU JUST PROVED MY POINT YOUNG ONE." clapped the GxG with a hint of amusement.
With that God took a step forward,...then another.
Fear, fear was the only thing that was going through the hearts of the paralised shinobi.
'Why is he coming here?!' that's all that went through the blondes head
Looking forward the knuckle head ninja took in the fact that the so called GxG was walking towards them. Each step the God took seemed to slow down time. Their heartbeats increasing by the second.
Naruto took a long glance at Sasuke. The Uchiha now back to his senses, taking his own glance at the God and then at the blonde. One thing going through both their heads.
'Oh shit!'

Well there goes that. This chapter took me a lonnnggg time , probably due to the fact that I kinda ran out of motivation. but hay I'm done, finally!!!
Let's say a little prayer before you leave.
"Father in heaven, Holy is your name father. I come before you saying thank you for helping me right this sorry, thank you for gifting my hand and thank you for the readers that I have been given. I pray you bless them in Christ name. Amen!"
