Digimon: monsters who are born in the digital world. Although they're made up of data, they can also cry, laugh, and fight like we do. They're our important friends! Let's gather up as many teammates as we can! Come along with us in our adventure!
Tafu na haato! Nando de mo tatakau to, kimeta toki kara tomaranai mai roodo! (What tough heart! Once I decided to keep up the fight, my road has never stopped unraveling!)
Chiisa na puraido seotte kobushi o nigitte, mata ippo ippo gooru o, mezashi zenryoku shisshou! (Carrying a small bit of pride with my fists clenched, I am for the goal again step by step, racing towards it with all my might!)
Tama ni tsurai hi datte atte! Omoidoori ni ikanakute. Sora ga namida de nijinde miete mo, ashita wa kitto egao ni naru kara! Daijoubu! (Sometimes it will be a bad day! Where nothing goes the way I want it to. But even if the sky blurs through my tears, I'm sure my smiles will come back tomorrow! So it's okay!)
Osoreru koto wa nani mo nai yo. "Ore wa tsuyoi" to shinjite iza ikou ze! (There's nothing out there to fear. I'll keep believing that "I'm strong" and get going!)
"Mou shinpai nai yo omae nara." Sou sora ga waratteru ki ga shita. Ase to namida no kazu kitto kagayakeru! ("With you around, there's nothing to worry about now." I felt as if the sky was saying that to me with a laugh. With the sweat and tears I build up, I'm sure I'll come out dazzling!)
Moshi fuan ni natta toki date Yareba dekiru to jibun shinjite Ashiato ga oshite kurata…Zutto… (Even if I end up feeling anxious after it all, as long as I believe I can do it. These footsteps have taught me to…Always…)
NEVER GIVE UP!
The light pierced through a set of blinds, striking two figures. Both muttered in their sleep as the taller of the two managed to close the blinds before she wrapped her arms around the waist of the other, pulling him close. Both were startled awake by the scream of a certain old man Digimon proceeding with a cracking sound.
"I told you, it's Jijimon-sama!"
"Never!"
"I hate our alarm clock…" Naruto muttered.
"You said it, Naru-kun," Lily nodded.
"I'm going to take a shower," Naruto said as he walked to the bathroom the room had, "No peeking!"
"Oh…You're no fun," Lily fake-pouted.
"I know," Naruto grinned before closing and locking the bathroom door.
Nearly twelve years had gone by since the Digimon appeared. Naruto had been learning a lot from them all and his human adopted older brothers, Iruka and Kakashi. So far, he still couldn't make a single clone to save his life. As he stepped into the shower, he frowned. Since they all lived with him now, there were various problems. He knew the shops, except for a family-run weapons shop and his favorite ramen stand, were overpricing them all each and every time they went shopping. What cost only 10 ryo was 1000 for them…unless it was Kakashi, Lily, or Iruka. The two males knew how to be evil when they wanted to be while the female…That's what you get for having a Clan of gossiping females in a village. Naruto soon finished bathing and got dressed in the bathroom, knowing it was a good idea to keep a set of clothes in the bathroom just in case Lily wanted to peek at him…again. He blushed a bit as he recalled the time he realized that Lily literally meant that she loved him. It deepened when he found that she was bi-sexual and wouldn't mind having, at most, five other girls be with her and Naruto.
'The old geezer just had to make me heir to the Uzumaki-Xros Heart Clan…' Naruto thought, recalling a law Iruka had shown everyone in class; the Clan Restoration Act, 'Iruka-niisan just had to talk about it on Family Day…'
He looked at himself in the body mirror that had finished clearing up from the bath's steam. He wore an orange vest with a blue shirt. On his legs were a pair of orange and blue pants and blue running shoes, which felt a bit more comfortable than sandals in the boy's opinion. Over his hands were a pair of gloves and his favorite goggles. He still didn't know who got them for him. When he was four, he had gotten them for his birthday when he managed to get home from avoiding everyone in the town. It was just a little present, but it meant the world to Naruto. He turned to look at the back of his outfit, grinning at the Clan Emblem. It was the swirl he had come to love when he was a kid, but now it made him remind himself of his brother, Shoutmon. He had a feeling Shoutmon was the one who made the symbol before the Uzumaki Swirl was added. He was about to walk out before pausing.
"Lily-chan, are you dressed?" Naruto asked through the door.
"Yes."
"…In more than just a bra and a thong?"
"…Maybe…"
"Oi! Lily-chan, as much as I love seeing your figure, not today," Naruto said, "It's the day I'm passing that test!"
"Oh yeah…" Lily's voice recalled, "…One moment, Naru-kun!"
"Yeah, yeah…" Naruto sighed before his eyes widened, "And don't you dare put on anything other than your normal outfit!"
"Crap!" Lily's voice cursed as Naruto just had to laugh.
"Oh, boy!" Shoutmon cheered as Naruto, Ballistamon, Dorulumon, Starmon, and the Pickmon were headed for the Ninja Academy, "I just can't wait for this test, Chief! Once you pass it, we'll be in the fighting!"
"Yeah…And one step closer to being Hokage and the Digimon King," Naruto grinned before stopping, "Hold on…"
"Not again…" Dorulumon muttered as Naruto dashed and jumped into a trash can.
"Why does he do that again?" a White Pickmon asked.
"To check for any interesting tools for the life of a Shinobi," Shoutmon replied, "You know how that a lot of the teachers besides Iruka-Niisan are trying to get him to fail."
"Worked twice, too," Dorulumon nodded as Naruto ran back with various scrolls and a broken katana.
"Look what I found, you guys!" Naruto grinned, "Man, I'm going to be spending a few hours tonight copying these down."
"And the broken katana?" Starmon asked.
"I'm going to see Tenten-chan and her family later to ask if they can fix it, maybe make it even better than it was before," Naruto replied, "Then, I'm going to give it to Iruka-Niisan as a thank you gift. Maybe to help future kids under his shouting learn about that Kenjutsu we learned, right Shoutmon?"
"Yosh!" the red Digimon grinned.
"We're going to be late," Ballistamon reminded.
"Ack!" Naruto yelped, "Hurry, you guys!"
"You heard Brother Naruto!" Starmon shouted.
"Iku!" the Pickmon exclaimed as the General and his Soldiers dashed off before skidding to a halt in front of a paint store.
"But first…Why don't we split up and do a little…training for the Shinobi?" Naruto grinned.
"I love it when you say that," Shoutmon grinned.
"Starmon! You better get your shiny, gold, star ass back here!" a Chuunin barked as he and an ANBU chased the star Digimon and the Pickmon, each one of them holding a paint bucket and a brush.
"You're not going to get away with this!" the ANBU declared as they went by a window at the Shinobi Academy.
"What did you guys do this time?" Iruka sighed as a white Pickmon with pink cheeks floated in.
"Painted the Hokage Monument," the Pickmon replied.
"Not again…" Iruka sighed before looking at a paper, "Uchiha Sasuke!"
"Uzumaki-Xros Heart Naruto!" a silver-haired man beside Iruka called.
"Ahem!" Shoutmon coughed.
"…And Shoutmon…" the man sighed.
"Thanks, Mizuki-sensei!" Shoutmon and Naruto grinned as they walked out with him.
"Good luck," Ballistamon waved, Dorulumon and himself sitting at Hinata's sides, a headband with a metal plate of it that had a leaf etched into it on her neck.
"Hey, Hinata, wanna go out tonight?" Kiba asked.
"No, thank you," Hinata replied, managing to not stutter.
"Come on…Just one little date?" Kiba insisted.
"The mistress said 'no,' mutt," Dorulumon spoke in dog.
"Oi! Who asked you, drill-mutt?" Kiba demanded.
"Akamaru, I am not sure if I respect or feel pity to you for having a stupid mutt as a master."
"Hey!" Kiba snapped.
"Dorulu Tornado!" the dog Digimon howled as his attack sent Kiba out the window and on one of the ANBU still pursuing Starmon and the Pickmonz, minus the white Pickmon in Hinata's arms.
"Now then, Naruto," Mizuki said from behind a desk, "I need you to perform the Bushin no Jutsu."
"Yosh!" Naruto nodded.
"Shoutmon, you can do this as well," Mizuki ordered.
"Right!"
"Let's go, Shoutmon!"
"Right, Chief!"
"Bushin!" both cried out.
Both were engulfed in plumes of smokes. The smoke cleared and Mizuki sneered in his mind. Before Shoutmon and Naruto were pale, pasty versions of themselves. Both were twitching and foaming at their sickly mouths. Shoutmon's clone defecated on itself and then both vanished.
"Wha…But…" Shoutmon gawked, feeling as if he had lost his mike.
'How did this happen? Kakashi-niisan and Iruka-niisan taught me all kinds of chakra control exercises due to my chakra levels…And I've seen Shoutmon make 100 Bushin at a time, each one perfect since Digimon seem to all have chakra reserves equivalent to Jonin, even at Child-Level…' Naruto thought before his eyes widened, 'Unless someone…'
"I'm sorry, Naruto-kun, Shoutmon-kun, but if you can't do the basic Jutsu, I'm going to have to fail Naruto-kun," Mizuki sighed sadly, "However…"
"Huh?" Shoutmon and Naruto pondered.
"There is an extra-credit, 100 percent guarantee of success Genin test that will make you a Genin," Mizuki continued, "What I need you two to do is…"
"He wants you two to do what?" Iruka screamed.
"Wow…I'm sure if we had a screaming contest right now, Shoutmon and you'd tie," Naruto examined as he unplugged his ears.
"Naruto, Shoutmon, you'd better start explaining or I'll take your mike and your ramen away."
" No! We'll explain!" both screamed, grabbing their adopted older brother's/teacher's feet.
"Hands off the feet!" Iruka barked as he shook his legs.
"What's with the shouting?" Lily asked as she and Jijimon walked in.
"They're hugging your feet again from the normal threats of taking Shoutmon's mike and Naruto-kun's ramen away?" Jijimon chuckled.
"Yes…"
"Naruto…Shoutmon…Why are you two in the Hokage Library at this hour?" the Hokage asked, catching the two in mid-tiptoe.
"Chief, quick!" Shoutmon shouted.
"Right!" Naruto nodded.
"Sexy Jutsu!" both cried.
The two were engulfed in plumes of smoke. The smoke faded and the Hokage gawked. Before him were two perfectly-developed women, one blond with her long hair in two ponytails and six whisker marks on her cheeks and the other a red head with her hair ending at her shoulders…completely naked…and hugging each other while looking at the Hokage. The two girls changed back into an annoyed Naruto and Shoutmon once the Hokage had collapsed, the blood from his nosebleed staining the ceiling, while he was on the ground, out cold.
"I never thought the guy was a perv…" Shoutmon muttered.
"Or it could be the fact that he had two naked chicks in his viewing area groping each other," Naruto replied.
"Maybe…All right! Let's get that scroll!" Shoutmon declared as Starmon and the Pickmon emerged frm the Xros Loader.
"Aye!" they all saluted before flying all around.
Soon, the gang found the scroll they needed. Naruto looked outside a window for a few seconds, careful to make sure no one saw him, before releasing Ballistamon from the Xros Loader and made Shoutmon X2. He jumped onto the Xros Digimon's back and it flew off, Starmon and his Pickmonz flying after them. Nearby, Mizuki sneered sinisterly. Soon, the group were sitting in a forest, unrolling the scroll.
"It's big!" the Pickmonz exclaimed, seeing that the scroll was easily twice Naruto's size.
"So what do we do first?" Shoutmon pondered.
"Aaaahhh!"
"Brother, what's wrong?" Starmon asked.
"It's…It's…Cloning Jutsu!" Naruto cried, earning facefaults from everyone.
"Are you kidding me?" Shoutmon screamed before looking at the page of the scroll, "…Uh…Chief?"
"What? I'm depressed!"
"Says here it takes more chakra than normal clones and that they're solid, not just smoky illusions," Shoutmon explained.
"Hm? Give me that, Shoutmon!" Naruto swiped the scroll, "'Kage Bushin no Jutsu…An 'S-Rank' technique that creates solid clones. Once dispelled, their knowledge during the time they were used is transferred back to the user. Warning: Can cause one to faint if too many clones are dispelled at once when more than two hours pass.' Do you guys know what this means…?"
"We get more ramen?" Starmon asked as he held up an empty cup of instant ramen he had made and ate.
"No…Maybe…Fine. But if we have this with us, we can make armies from just one guy!" Naruto grinned.
"Sugoi! That means if our family learned this, then we could have entire armies of Uzumaki-Xros Heart!" Shoutmon exclaimed with stars in his eyes.
Let's get learning!" Shoutmon screamed.
"Yay!" the Pickmon cheered.
"Hold on, guys!" Naruto waved them off, "I wanna see if there are any other Jutsu that we can learn."
"Good thing Digimon have Chakra equal to Chuunin to low Jonin at In-Training and Rookie…" Shoutmon grinned as Starmon and the Pickmonz began to unroll the scroll more.
As the group was busy reading the scroll for Jutsu beside the Shadow Clone, none of them noticed a figure observing them nearby. On a nearby tree branch, a stereotype ninja outfit-wearing figure hid. He was roughly the size of Shoutmon, maybe a few inches taller. Its head, though, was actually a green TV Monitor and breathing device.
"They want to do what?" Lily screamed.
"N-n-n-now, L-l-l-l-l-lily-sama…" a cat mask-wearing ANBU female began to stammer, fearing for his life worse than any female he had ever met before.
"Let me in there, dammit!" Lily roared as she was held back by every single ANBU in the village, "I'll murder the entire civilian council for this!"
"She's scary…" a horse mask-wearing ANBU whimpered.
"Just hold her down!" a dragon mask-wearing ANBU screamed as they were all dragged into the council room.
"What is going on here?" Sakura Sr. roared.
"Flow' Cannon!" Lily screamed, making the Haruno barely dodge the attack.
"She must have found out we sent all the Jonin and Chuunin out to hunt for Naruto and Shoutmon," Hokage whimpered, hiding behind a man resembling a male Hinata with long black hair in a white robe who was also shivering in fear of the mad X-Digimon.
"I swear if the Civilian Council are trying to have him trialed for treason, I'll…"
"Lily, calm yourself!" Jijimon barked, whacking the female on the head with his staff, "The Ninja Council has refused to let Naruto-kun be allowed to be called a traitor to the village. If they did, Uzumaki-Xros Heart would let you fight as much as you'd please."
The two parts of the council shivered in fear at the malicious glint Lily adopted in her eyes. Even some of the ANBU with a kanji for 'root' in their masks shivered as they held down the mad Digimon infused with the X-Antibody. Jijimon then bopped Lily on the head once more.
"And have you forgotten that you are a Jonin?" Jijimon asked, "After the boys, Lily-chan!"
"Hai! Naru-kun~~~!" Lily shouted as she rocketed out, actually sending the ANBU flying all over the village.
"Why is it that every single time that you council members tick Lily off, we have to make more payments to the roof?" Sarutobi barked, "Jijimon, you're excused since you normally calm her down."
"Yes, but now I fear for Naruto-kun," Jijimon shuddered.
"I am dying…"
Naruto's eyes widened. He stood up, pausing in mid training. Shoutmon, Starmon, and the Pickmonz paused in their tasks as they looked at Naruto.
"What's wrong, Naruto Brother?" Starmon asked.
"I…heard music," Naruto replied.
"I don't hear anything," a silver Pickmon replied.
"He must be hearing the music of nature," Shoutmon nodded.
"Who are you?" Naruto called out before running off with the scroll.
"Hey…!" Shoutmon called as they began to run after their General, "What's wrong, Naruto?"
"I can hear it…"
"Huh?"
"I can hear the sound of someone almost dying!" Naruto replied as they came upon a large forest fenced off, "In here!"
"Right. Soul Crusher!" Shoutmon roared as he blew a hole in the fence, letting the group go through it.
'Where is he going?' the figure thought as he followed through the trees until the group stopped at a large river.
"Hey! Can you hear me? Oi! Please answer!" Naruto called out.
"W-Who is that calling out for me?"
"Ore no Uzumaki-Xros Heart Naruto; I am a human!"
"Human? Xros Heart? Could you be the new General we've been looking for? How regrettable…If we had just met a bit earlier, I could have…I could have finally met the new general of Xros Heart after failing Taiki-Dono!"
"Don't give up!" Naruto called, "I'm here, aren't I? I wanna meet you, too, so live!"
"This is the end of the road for me. Please, at least find the others of Xros Heart!"
"I won't accept something that sounds like a last request from you!" Naruto declared as he threw his sandals, the scrolls, and his vest off.
"C-Chief, what are you doing?" Shoutmon gasped.
"There's a Digimon down there…dying…This Digimon…I can't turn my back on him!" Naruto declared.
With that, Naruto jumped into the water. Shoutmon jumped in right after Naruto. However, he only lasted a few seconds before jumping out of the water.
"Cold!" Shoutmon screamed.
"Let me!"
In the water, Naruto swam deeper into it. He soon managed to come upon a gold outline of a figure, appearing to be fizzling in and out every few seconds. He held out his Xros Loader and the figure was absorbed into it. He smiled before he coughed and took in water. He began to black out when two figures grabbed him. He slowly awoke, feeling warmth from two areas. He opened his eyes and noticed his head was on Lily's lap while Iruka was keeping a fire going.
"We found you," Iruka smirked.
"Ha! I found ya, Nii-san!" Naruto grinned.
"You idiot! We were the ones who found you guys!" Iruka snapped.
"Technically, I was the one who found my plushy," Lily corrected.
"Lily-chan, please don't call me your plushy in public…" Naruto complained.
"What were you doing down there and, more importantly, in the Forest of Death?" Iruka barked.
"Well…We were training, learning a few Jutsu from the Scroll when I heard music with a voice," Naruto explained, "It was weird. I…I felt as if I needed to go after it. I kept running until I got to the river over there and talked with the Digimon that was stuck down there, dying."
"Huh? A…A Digimon?"
"Hai. It sounded like he was a part of Xros Heart," Naruto replied before taking out his Xros Loader, "Reload! Knightmon!"
"K-Knightmon?" Iruka and Lily gasped.
A green light shined from the Xros Loader's screen. The light shot out to a few feet away from them, forming into a large figure. He easily took Lily's height, roughly nine feet tall. His soft blue eyes gave a gentle look upon Naruto from within his silver armor. Upon his torso was a red emblem and a gold shield was on his back. His left hip held a sword with a gold hilt and guard with a green jewel on the end of the hilt. He also wore a white mantle. He bowed to Naruto.
"Arigatou, Naruto-Dono," Knightmon thanked, "You have saved my life just as another human, Taiki-Dono, did weeks ago."
'Weeks…?' Shoutmon thought, 'He…He must have just appeared here sometime ago…'
"Knightmon…It's been nearly twelve years since Taiki saved you," Lily spoke.
"T-Twelve years…?" Knightmon gasped.
"Knightmon!" Shoutmon exclaimed as he, Starmon, the Pickmonz, and Ballistamon ran up to the shocked Digimon, "Sugoi! It's you! You're alive!"
"Twelve years…Lady Lily, what do you m…You're an X-Antibody Digimon now?" Knightmon gasped.
"It's a long story, Knightmon-san…" Iruka began before flinching, "Everyone, get down!"
With that, he pushed everyone out of the way. Just before a flurry of shuriken and kunai were about to strike Iruka, Knightmon regained composure and jumped into the path, blocking the kunai with his shield. He grabbed Iruka and they jumped out of the way as a few trees fell over, revealing a few giant elephants with orange fur, ivory tusks, and metal eyeless masks over their faces and trunks.
"M-m-m-monster!" Iruka gasped.
"No! Mammothmon!" Shoutmon gasped before black rubber suited creatures with three fingers, clawed feet, and gas masks resembling long-faced creatures with blasters joined the Mammothmon, "And Troopmon!"
"Overhead!" Ballistamon exclaimed as a group of a mix between a pterodactyl and a black jet flew overhead with what seemed to be sea mines with red goggles in their claws, "Pteramon! And they're carrying Chikurimon!"
"Nice job finding him!" Mizuki sneered from the top of the leading Mammothmon.
"I see…So that's what's going on…" Iruka gasped.
"Naruto, give me the scroll!" Mizuki ordered.
"What? Mizuki-sensei, what are you doing?" Shoutmon fumed.
"Naruto! Shoutmon! Don't give him the scroll!" Iruka ordered, "That is a dangerous scroll that has forbidden ninjutsu sealed within it! Mizuki used you in order to get his hands on it!"
"Forbidden ninjutsu?" You mean like the Rasengan Ero Sanin showed us the last time he visited?" Naruto asked.
"Exactly!" Iruka replied.
"Naruto…Shoutmon…There's no point in you two having it. I'll tell you the truth," Mizuki smirked, making Iruka and Lily's eyes widen.
"You baka! That's forbidden!" Lily snapped.
"15 years ago…you know about the demon fox-the Kyuubi no Yoko-being sealed, right?" Mizuki continued.
"Sealed? I thought it got killed," Shoutmon said, scratching his head.
"Since that incident…a new rule was created for this village."
"…A rule?" Naruto repeated.
"What rule?" Starmon asked.
"But…This rule was never meant to be told to you," Mizuki continued.
"What? Why not Naruto Brother?" Starmon demanded.
"Tell us!" the Pickmonz added.
"What…What kind of rule is it?" Naruto gulped.
"The rule that no one is allow to tell you that Naruto Uzumaki-Xros Heart is the Kyuubi no Yoko!" Mizuki sneered, "In other words…You are the Nine-tailed Fox! You are the one who killed Iruka's parents and destroyed the village, killing the Fourth Hokage in the process!"
Mizuki waited for Naruto's reaction. His left brow rose up as Naruto and Shoutmon began to snicker. The Chuunin and the Jonin of the older beings there just blinked as Naruto, Shoutmon, the Pickmonz, and Starmon began to laugh.
"S-Sorry about that…!" Naruto grinned before taking out his Xros Loader, "But I kinda stumbled on her a few years ago by accident when I used up too much energy trying to make Bushin."
"Y…You've got to be kidding me!" Mizuki snarled.
"Nope!" Naruto replied, "In fact…Shoutmon helped me figure something out on how to help her. Kyuubi: Reload!"
"What?" Iruka gasped.
The screen of Naruto's Xros Loader glowed before releasing a red light. The light solidified into the form of a bipedal fox. The fox was slender and curved in the right places. A heavy patch of fur covered her chest with a black vest. She wore a pair of black jeans ending at the knees of its double jointed legs. On the part of its knees was a purple swirl, the tips of its nine tails and ears were a shade of white that made even the purest snow seem tainted. The rest of its fur was scarlet and its arms were covered in black gauntlets made of silk. It also had three fingers with claws on the ends for hands. It opened its eyes to reveal they were a gentle red, almost like the morning sun.
"You called, Naru-Dono?" the Digimon giggled.
"The…K-Kyuubi…" Iruka gawked, "…Is a Digimon…?"
"A v-v-virus-type Renamon…?" Lily gulped.
"Don't worry," Kyuubi giggled, "I don't bite unless I find you to my sexual tastes."
"…I like her. She has my ideas of biting as well," Lily stated after a few seconds, earning a facefault from Iruka.
"Her power is still stuck in the seal, but her mind's in a body again," Naruto grinned, "All I did was go to where her body was last at and found a bit of data there. After that, I had that data put into the Xros Loader and focused her chakra into it as best as I could."
"And my, my, my…Someone's been collecting Digimon," Kyuubi noted as she looked at all the Digimon.
"Who is the red Digimon there?" a Mammothmon asked.
"He looks kinda familiar…" another rubbed its chin with its trunk.
"You wanna know?" Shoutmon asked as he entered a cool pose, pointing at the army with his mike being rested on his shoulder, "I bet you do! I'm…"
"General Naruto Uzumaki-Xros Heart and his team!" Knightmon finished.
"Oh, come on!" Shoutmon complained, henging into an angry chibi form of himself, "You took the coolest line again!"
"Shut up and fight!" Ballistamon interrupted.
"Indeed…" Mizuki growled, "But first, hand over the scroll!"
"No way!" Naruto replied, "You're not getting the scroll over my dead body!"
"Same here!" Iruka added.
"Fine then…ningen!" Mizuki snarled.
"N…Ningen?" Iruka repeated, "Mizuki, you're a human too!"
"Wrong!" Mizuki roared as a black energy ripped off him, "Lord Baguramon gave me another chance. I spent the last twenty-nine years here, learning things for him."
"B-Baguramon?" Shoutmon gasped.
Mizuki laughed maniacally as his body began to bulge. Rips appeared all over his body before parts began to explode, revealing purple-near grey-skin with stitches in some areas. His eyes turned completely scarlet while his teeth, fingernails, and toenails turned a venomous pink. His legs became double-jointed as his feet changed to lion-like feet. He wore torn grey pants with a black belt embedded with a skull. He grew a black mane and a tail with a black tuff of fur on the end. His arms expanded and extended with horns ripped out of his shoulders and six spikes formed on his torso. Black straps adorned his arms with a metal plate on his left hand's back. He let loose a powerful roar that shook the area.
"MadLeomon!" Shoutmon gasped.
"I'll rip you ningen and Ningen-Lovers to shreds!" MadLeomon roared as his claws extended.
Everyone gasped as MadLeomon lunged at Naruto. He was sent back by Ballistamon's horn and Knightmon's shield. He startled two Mammothmon in his army when he crashed near them.
"We gotcha!" Ballistamon declared.
"Naruto-Dono, I shall protect you with my life!" Knightmon declared.
"Hey, what'd ya think? Did it give you shivers?" Starmon taunted.
"You pieces of scum!" MadLeomon snarled before the Pteramon lunged at the group, "Do it! Kill them all! Get me the scroll!"
"Soul Crusher!" Shoutmon roared.
"Oh my…Could that be…?" Jijimon pondered as he looked atop the Hokage Tower with Sarutobi and the Ninja Council, "They're in the Forest of Death!"
"Yo, my brother!" Starmon cheered with the Pickmonz.
"Shoutmon!" Naruto gasped.
"This is our first time fighting against actual enemy Digimon, Naruto," Shoutmon grinned before charging, "Let's go, Ballistamon, Starmon, Lily, Pickmonz!"
"Yeah!"
"We'll help, too!" Iruka and Naruto nodded.
"Rowdy Rocker!" Shoutmon roared as he pummeled a few Troopmon and Mammothmon.
"Heavy Speaker!"
"Meteor Squall!"
"Fire Style: Fireball Jutsu!" Iruka declared
"Rock Damashī!" Shoutmon roared as he threw the energized note, destroying the last of the Pteramon.
"You little brats!" MadLeomon snapped, "I won't accept that you rely on humans!"
"Uh…Not to be ironic, but didn't you learn from humans?" Naruto asked.
"Shut up, Ningen!" MadLeomon roared before he absorbed the remaining members of the army he had-roughly two Mammothmon, two Troopmon, and twelve Chikurimon-, resulting in him doubling in size, gaining a chainsaw for a right arm and hand, a gauntlet over his left arm and hand, and more armor on his torso and legs, "Armed MadLeomon!"
"W-What's with Mizuki?" Iruka gasped.
"He was never a human. He was a Digimon straight from the get-go," Shoutmon growled.
Armed MadLeomon roared before stabbing the ground with his chainsaw, creating large fissures within it. Shoutmon and Ballistamon nearly fell in until Shoutmon grabbed a side and Ballistamon held on by grabbing Shoutmon's mike. Armed MadLeomon approached them when he was tackled by Naruto.
"If you ever lay a hand on my nakama, I'll kill you," Naruto growled.
"Why you…Die, you little brats! Only death awaits anyone who rebels from the Bagura Army!" Armed MadLeomon roared.
"Starmon! Pickmonz! DigiXros!" Naruto called.
"Starmon!"
"Pickmonz!"
Starmon's mouth area transformed into a handle while four silver Pickmon jumped onto him. A red Pickmon the landed on the top.
"The Lion Sleeps Tonight!" the Red Pickmon declared before becoming part of the weapon.
"Rare Star Sword!" Starmon and the Pickmonz declared as the five Pickmonz turned into a flaming blade held by Naruto.
"Tajuu Kage Bushin no Jutsu!" Naruto cried out, creating 1000 of him, while causing Lily and Kyuubi to collapsed against teach others' backs with nosebleeds and Hentai thoughts.
"What?" Armed MadLeomon gasped.
"1000 Kōtō Slash!" the Naruto Army roared as they all threw their Rare Star Swords at Armed MadLeomon, shattering his chainsaw before turning into Starmon and the Pickmonz while the Naruto clones dispelled.
"You…!" Armed MadLeomon snarled.
"Shoutmon! Ballistamon! Starmon! Pickmonz! DigiXros!" Naruto shouted.
"Shoutmon!"
"Ballistamon!"
"Starmon!"
"Pickmonz!" the white Pickmon shouted this time, making six more white Pickmon.
"DigiXros!"
"Shoutmon X2 + Star Axe!" Shoutmon X2 declared as he held a gold axe with a serrated back, a Starmon guard, and Shoutmon's Mike for a hilt.
Shoutmon dashed at Armed MadLeomon and swung. The two stood across from each other for a few minutes until Armed MadLeomon exploded. MadLeomon roared as he jumped out of the smoke.
"I'll be back for the scroll and the Code Crown!" MadLeomon roared as he jumped off just as the ANBU arrived with the Hokage.
"What happened here?" Sarutobi asked, noting Shoutmon X2 + Star Axe, Kyuubi-who had blended her nine tails into one-, and Knightmon.
"A long story, sir," Iruka replied, "But first…Naruto, Shoutmon, close your eyes."
"Huh?" Shoutmon X2 + Star Axe pondered before splitting into his four base Digimon Components.
"I think I see where this is going," Lily giggled, "Close your eyes now you two."
"Fine, fine…" Naruto sighed as he and the Digimon, minus Kyuubi and Knightmon-the latter confused-, closed their eyes.
"Oi. ANBU, I need something from you guys and girls," Lily said.
"Do what she says," the Hokage whimpered, still frightened of her for what she did in the meeting room earlier.
"Hai, Lord Hokage…" the ANBU all whimpered.
"Okay, everyone, open your eyes!" Iruka ordered.
Naruto and all the Digimon, minus Lily, opened their eyes-Knightmon and Kyuubi did so since the Hokage asked them to. They all saw that the ANBU, Iruka, and Lily all were missing their headbands. They felt their foreheads and gasped. Each one of them was wearing a headband of Kohona.
"Congratulations, Naruto; you and your family have graduated," Iruka grinned, his headband on Shoutmon's forehead.
"And as of now, I proclaim these two as…May I know your names, please?" the Hokage asked.
"…Rena," the Kyuubi replied.
"I am Knightmon, Hokage-Dono, master to Naruto-Dono," Knightmon kneeled.
"Very well. I award Rena and Knightmon with being members of the Uzumaki-Xros Heart Clan," Sarutobi said, "I suggest each and every, single one of you does a good job in your Shinobi Career."
"Hai, Lord Hokage!" Naruto saluted.
"Good. Naruto, Shoutmon, Lily, Iruka, I expect a report from each of you on what has transpired tonight. Do not leave a single thing out. Once submitted, you are each to report to the Mission Hall for an A-Class Payment."
"An…A-Class?" Iruka gasped, "Lord Hokage…"
Me: It will get better over time.
