The chakra from the room faded and it turned out that there were more than a few people in the room
The chakra from the room faded and it turned out that there were more than a few people in the room. Heck, all the captains were there. They all looked at him strangely as he took a hold of his Zanpakutou.
Yamamoto's eyes widened as he saw the sword. 'How can this be? That sword is…'
'Heh, interesting…this brat,' said Kenpachi as he grinned and thought about exactly how he was going to kill him.
'This boy is very interesting, I should take him to my lab,' thought the crazy scientist.
Naruto looked at all the shock faces and wondered what had happened. "Is something wrong Yamamoto-Taichou?" he asked.
Over the past few years, Naruto had learnt to respect the captains… most of them anyway. He had also gained the respect and trust of a few of them such as Yamamoto which acted just like the Sandaime. Naruto enjoyed annoying Hitsugaya once in a while and he would always greet the captains with respect but he avoided Mayuri Kurotsuchi and Zaraki Kenpachi at all costs.
Time Freeze – Inside Naruto
"Huh, what am I doing here again?" pondered Naruto. "What is the meaning of this Kyuubi? I just got my Zanpakutou."
"I know you did and everything went just as according to plan. You see, I have made you get used to my reiatsu and chakra as well as your own reiatsu for these past two years just for this occasion and you would of course been able to handle the last reiatsu seeing how I've had it for all my life with you. I made it so you were to create the ultimate Zanpakutou!"
"…the ultimate Zanpakutou?" asked Naruto. He was a bit shocked to hear that he just created something called the ultimate Zanpakutou.
"Hmm, where to begin… Do you remember when the fourth sealed me into you?"
Naruto nodded.
"Well, the reason why he sealed me into you was because he could not kill me so he did the next best thing. He called upon The Shinigami which is sort of like the top dog of the whole of Soul Society. No one has ever seen him but Yamamoto managed to make contact with him and signed a contract with him. When the fourth sealed me into you that night, I grabbed a bit of The Shinigami's reiatsu and stored it inside me. I knew I couldn't give it to you when you were just a ninja because it would kill you. Are you following Naruto?"
"Yeh… but one thing I don't understand is what is the point of telling me all this?"
"Well think back to what you just did. Firstly, you poured your own reiatsu in it. You have a huge amount of Reiatsu so that would make the Zanpakutou gigantic but then you started pouring my chakra into it which would balance your enormous reiatsu but make it even more powerful. To add to that, you then added my reiatsu around those two making it pact and extremely powerful but lastly is what is the most important. I gave you a bit of The Shinigami's reiatsu making it the ultimate Zanpakutou anyone has ever seen."
"Wow, thanks Kyuubi… but will I be able to control such a strong weapon?"
"You will be able to control if you truly wish to… it is time for me to go, good luck Naruto," said Kyuubi. 'I truly hope that you'll get stronger from this.'
Time Freeze End – Back To Reality
Naruto looked at all the features of his new Zanpakutou for the first time. It wasn't that big but it wasn't small either. The tip was the sharpest part by far and he could see that he could use that to his advantage. A/N: Think bigger than Ichigo's Bankai but smaller than his original by a lot.
The Zanpakutou had bandages wrapped around the handle and he could feel the power in them. Then Yamamoto spoke up.
"Could everyone except for Naruto leave, I would like to speak to him alone."
Everyone turned to leave eyeing the Zanpakutou and Naruto all thinking the exact same thing, 'This boy is going to be strong.'
The last of them went out of the room and the door closed. Yamamoto walked up to Naruto.
"How did you manage to create such a Zanpakutou?" asked Yamamoto.
Naruto explained the whole story that Kyuubi had explained to him. Naruto stopped at times and let the first division captain digest it. They discussed the matter of the Zanpakutou and how powerful it was for a while.
"Okay… you may leave now but please do be careful with that Zanpakutou, someone could end up getting seriously injured."
Naruto could see the concern on his face and so he nodded and left. He was instantly greeted by Renji and Rukia. "Oh hey… he said as he saw them rushing at him"
"How was it?" asked Rukia. Renji was just looking at around, giving him a I don't really care all that much look but he was just faking it.
Naruto gave them his foxy grin and two thumbs up. "It was awesome and really weird, I'll tell you more when we go home," he said.
The rest of the lesson was pretty boring. They explained more about Zanpakutou and nobody was even listening. Half of the class was just closing their eyes trying to talk to their Zanpakutou. As if you could awaken the Shikai on the first day but hey, it doesn't hurt to try does it? Naruto sat there so bored he decided to have a little conversation with his inner creature.
"So Kyuubi, so is my Zanpakutou like The Shinigami's Zanpakutou?"
The Kyuubi emerged from his cage and looked at Naruto.
"Ah… Naruto, your Zanpakutou is similar to The Shinigami since it contains his reiatsu but not enough of it. Your Zanpakutou's ability will reflect your characteristics and your power and you are not The Shinigami so it won't be the same. Yours will be stronger."
This left Naruto shocked beyond imagination. How could he have just created a Zanpakutou so strong that it beats The Shinigami's Zanpakutou? A weapon so strong, that it even sealed away Kyuubi away.
"It has that Zanpakutou's amazing power added to your Zanpakutou's power and characteristics which makes it ultimate. It is possible that if you mix an enough amount of Reiatsu and Chakra together, you will be able to cut my soul."
Naruto looked at Kyuubi understandingly and cut the connection. His Zanpakutou was on his table and he examined it. He wondered what his Shikai would be like and maybe one day, even Bankai.
"Hey Renji, want to spar in the underground place for a few hours after this to try out our new Zanpakutou's?" asked Naruto. He was quite eager to try it out; he had been waiting for two whole years!
Renji nodded in agreement. After class, they both rushed home and channeled reiatsu throughout their body and stepped into the wall outside Rukia's room.
"Ready Renji?" asked Naruto. Renji nodded and took his stance. "Here I come!" yelled Naruto as he dashed towards Renji taking out his Zanpakutou.
Naruto took the Zanpakutou with both hands jumped and tried to strike Renji down. He came down with extreme force due to his original power and the Zanpakutou's amazing power. If this was Rukia, she would have probably lost straight away but this was Renji, a Shinigami that was terrible at kido but extremely talented in fighting with swords. Naruto wasn't the only one that has practiced over the years.
Renji swung the sword around so it was on top of Naruto and tried to lock Naruto's sword onto the ground, he was successful. He then tried to elbow Naruto in the stomach to take him off the sword. Luckily, Naruto saw this and jumped high enough and flipped over Renji.
"Way of the binding 1: Restrain," cried Naruto and a blinding light from all directions surrounded Renji's waist. If this was a serious battle, Naruto would have killed him easy but Renji was a friend so he took his Zanpakutou from the ground.
Renji broke out of the binding with ease. Renji ran at Naruto this time and tried to slash him from the side which was easily blocked. This went on for a while until they had enough.
"Wow that was really fun," Naruto said as he rested in the Hot Spring. Renji nodded in agreement. It was one tiring match.
"Imagine if one of us brought out a Shikai," said Renji. Naruto rolled his eyes. Renji had always loved to unlock new things. He would die to be able to unlock his Shikai straight away.
"You wish Renji, the only person that will able to unlock the Shikai that fast would be me," and Naruto gave him his famous foxy grin. Naruto loved to brag and show off but he loved it even more when he was around Renji. He was like Sasuke, just not a stuck up one and a lot kinder but still similar in some ways. Naruto also loved pulling pranks and Renji loved following him to watch what would happen but would join in the fun occasionally.
"Hey Renji, lets pull off a prank near the fourth division area," said Naruto.
Renji looked at Naruto and they both grinned, "What do you have in mind?" They discussed it for a few minutes before both agreeing and went outside. They ran towards the area they chose. They went to one of the areas that a lot people turn to and decided to scare the living shit out of them.
They waited for a couple of minutes before a blue shirt turned. "NOW!" they both cried in unison.
Naruto channeled a lot of unnecessary reiatsu scaring the living shit out of the boy and also made him look heaps cool and powerful. "Way of binding 1: Restrain!" he cried but this was not enough to hold the boy down as that was the most basic of binding. Naruto then repositioned himself and spoke after taking a deep breath.
"Disintegrate, you black dog of Rondanini! Look upon yourself with horror and then claw out your own throat! Way of binding 9: Strike!" exclaimed Naruto and the boy was engulfed of a thick reiatsu.
"Wow Naruto, where did you learn that and since when could you control your reiatsu like that?" exclaimed Renji.
Naruto lowered his reiatsu and stood up straight. "Shut up… lets finish this!" he said as he got up from his last position.
"Way of destruction 4: White lightning," they cried in unison.
A concentrated energy started to form in their fingers and when it was big enough, the boy had wet their pants. Just when he thought he was going to die, Naruto's kidou popped and he started cracking up. Renji's however, backfired himself as he sucked at controlling his reiatsu which made Naruto crack up harder.
"That was not funny!" cried the boy from the fourth division. "I could have died there,"
Renji and Naruto looked at him for a second, and then started cracking up again. After they were done, Naruto said, "I'm Uzumaki Naruto and this is my best friend Abarai Renji, we're both in second year of academy, nice to meet you."
The boy was surprised he was actually so nice. "I'm Hanatarou of the fourth division. Here, let me patch you up from that technique you used," he said, as he started patching Renji up.
After they were done, Hanatarou looked at them with a worried face, "Why would you two be wondering around pulling off pranks like that anyway? Don't you care about your friend?"
They were both confused and looked at each other before looking back at Hanatarou. "What do you mean?" asked Naruto.
"What I mean is that, it's now official that the noble family of Kuchiki is going to adopt her now that she has own Zanpakutou."
They looked at each other before the impact arrived. It felt like a huge piece of them just vanished. They stood up straight away and ran as fast as they could towards the Kuchiki domain, obviously trying to stop what was happening.
"Sorry Renji, I'm going to go ahead of you…" said Naruto as he stopped running and with a blink, he was way ahead and disappearing in site.
'Damn that bastard, since when was he able to use flash steps like that? But you're not the only one that's worried…' Renji focused his reiatsu into his legs making him run extremely fast, almost catching up to Naruto's flash steps.
They arrived at their domain at the same time because Naruto couldn't keep the flash steps up for too long even after all that training. They opened the door at the same time, both exhausted and sweaty. They both saw her; talking to one of the elders… she sat there with her around staring at them, tears dropping from her face.
Rukia stood up, bowed to the elder and starting walking towards Naruto and Renji. Her head was down and she walked right past them. "I'm sorry…" whispered Rukia as she walked past them, tears falling from her face. Naruto and Renji were both shocked and they couldn't move until she was far away.
They ran towards her, grabbed her shoulder and turned her around to face them. Their expression was clearly readable as tears flowed down both of their faces but neither of them cared, all they wanted was for Rukia to stay.
"I accepted their offer…I'm leaving straight away," said Rukia, which struck Naruto and Renji even harder… it was confirmed, it wasn't a lie.
"Why…" said Naruto, as tears kept streaming down his face. "We made a pact that we would always stay together no matter what!"
"I don't know… I'm sorry," was all Rukia could say.
"Good luck… It's not like we'll never be able to see you again ay Naruto?" said Renji. The blonde nodded in agreement. "But remember that next time we see you, we're going to kick your ass no matter if you're a Kuchiki or not." Renji managed to pull of a teary smile in front of her and turned around and walked away.
"Well… goodbye Rukia…" whispered Naruto as he turned around and jumped onto the roofs like he used to do.
Rukia had tears down her face and she looked as the two closest people left. "Goodbye Naruto… Goodbye Renji, I will always remember you two…"
One year passed without Rukia and they realized how much they missed her. They were training everyday on everything they could. Renji however, did not bother with kidou because he was just too hopeless. Class was usual and boring. They were taught a couple new kidous which Renji hardly bothered with but Naruto perfected them. He had really control over his reiatsu now and that only improved his chakra control even more. He couldn't practice the Chakra control too often as it would harm his body too much so he stuck to once a week for safety's sake.
Classes were boring and Naruto had started to feel a connection between his Zanpakutou.
During one of the history lessons, some interesting facts came across Naruto.
"Shikai as you all know is the first release of your Zanpakutou. It is not an easy thing to do to awaken your Shikai and to learn your Zanpakutou's name. The fastest any Shinigami has awakened their Shikai was six years of training and it took him another eight years to master. Bankai is the second and final stage of release for your Zanpakutou. Achieving Bankai is very hard and requires a lot of time. All captains have Bankai except for Zaraki Kenpachi who fights with raw power. The fastest anyone has reached Bankai stage was twenty years after mastering Shikai and another hundred to master it."
Naruto wrote on a piece of paper to Renji, "I want to fight you today after school, at our usual place but this time… lets be serious."
Renji read it and then nodded. They both knew that had been training secretly for these years but neither of them asked each other about it. They were both strong but the question was which one was stronger?
They both walked towards their home in silence and walked into their secret training grounds in silence. Finally, one of them broke the silence.
"So… this is it isn't it Renji?" said Naruto, "To see which one of us is stronger…"
"Yeah…" was the only thing that Renji could say.
They both placed their hands on their Zanpakutou and took their stance.
Naruto dashed at Renji as Renji dashed at Naruto both taking out their weapon and clashing it in middle. They exchanged positions and took their stance again. Naruto had watched Lee do the same move several times… 'It shouldn't be too hard… I think it went a bit like this.'
Naruto dashed at Renji at top speed and swung his sword but right before the swords collided, Naruto flash stepped right behind him.
He held his Zanpakutou with his let hand as he pointed his finger with his right hand. "Way of Destruction 4: White lightning!" yelled Naruto from point blank.
Lucky for Renji, he had quick reflexes and he turned around with his Zanpakutou fast enough and quickly channeled his reiatsu into the sword deflected it but this blew him off from the floor since it was point blank and he was now in the air.
Naruto knew this was going to be happen which was why he was already chanting, "Disintegrate, you black dog of Rondanini! Look upon yourself with horror and then claw out your own throat! Way of Binding 9: Strike!" yelled Naruto.
Renji was now surrounded by thick Reiatsu and he channelled an enormous amount of reiatsu that took it off after two seconds but this was all that Naruto needed.
"Way of Destruction 4: White Lightning!" yelled Naruto once more as he flash stepped under Renji. He sheathed his Zanpakutou. 'I need to use your chakra Kyuubi, NOW!'
"…very well!"
Naruto created five shadow clones and they were all under Renji. Renji had dodged the white lightning but it missed him by inches and now was falling to the ground and he couldn't see Naruto until the sound of the clones came but it was too late. The clones had jumped to Renji and kicked him from underneath making him unable to do anything. The real Naruto jumped to the top and gave a massive finish off kick and he landed flat on his back.
"That was good Naruto, I never knew you could use hand-to-hand combat like that…" said Renji.
"There are a lot of things you don't know my good friend…" smirked Naruto, as he gave his foxy grin once more. "It's been fun… but this is just the beginning, I know you have more than that Renji! Show me your true power!"
Renji raised an eyebrow and then he smirked. This was just the beginning of the battle and they were already having so much fun.
Naruto got ready again but this time it was Renji that made the first move. He dashed towards Naruto and pointed his sword directly at him. Naruto knew that he probably couldn't block the attack directly without using some chakra or Kyuubi's reiatsu and so he ducked. He called upon the Kyuubi chakra once more.
"Kage-Bunshin no Jutsu," cried Naruto as the sword stabbed the air above his head.
They all went off to their own directions and kept moving around to confuse Renji.
Renji closed his eyes and then concentrated really hard. He ran away from all the Naruto until he was far enough to have them all in front of him, "Ye Lord! Mask of blood and flesh, all creation, flutter of wings, ye who bears the name of Man! Inferno and pandemonium, the sea barrier surges, March on to the south! Way of Destruction 31: Shot of Red Fire!" yelled Renji.
All the Naruto's eyes widened and they all got blasted except for the real copy which deflected it with his sword. Naruto had taught Renji this a while ago and it looked like Renji put it to good use.
'Shit!' thought Naruto. He was thinking too much, Renji had dashed towards him and grabbed him by the hands.
"Thanks for teaching me that… But this is what Rukia taught me, I can't control it well just yet. "Ye Lord! Mask of flesh and bone, all creation, flutter of wings, ye who bears the name of Man! Truth and temperance, upon this sinless wall of dreams unleash but slightly the wrath of your claws! Way of Destruction 33: Blue Fire, Crash Down!" yelled Renji.
Naruto couldn't escape and got hit from point blank. He was angry, oh was he angry… No one had ever inflicted that much damage to him but he wasn't the only one that was hurt. Suddenly, Naruto could feel the reiatsu of Kyuubi channelling through him. His injuries from the blast were recovering quickly.
'Time to finish this,' thought Naruto.
'I can't go on for too much longer…' thought Renji. 'I guess I should concentrate all my power into this one attack.' Renji stood up and held up his Zanpakutou. "Looks like I'm running out of energy… lets put all our remaining energy into this one attack."
"Sure…" said Naruto.
They both raised their Zanpakutou high in the air and started channeling as much reiatsu into it as possible. They looked at each other for one last time and ran towards each other ready to finish off the other.
They were quite close until Renji ducked and swung his Zanpakutou up at Naruto's one hoping to break it out of his hands. Naruto's eyes widened but he wouldn't let Renji's plan go the way he wanted it to go. He flash stepped at that very moment right behind Renji and was ready to finish.
Renji was frightened that he was going to be beaten, 'Damn… I lose… no… I must win!'
Time Freeze – Inside Renji
Renji was in a dark room but he saw a light figure. "Renji, do you want to win?" He nodded.
"Listen carefully, my name is," The figure sighed, "You are not ready but I will let you use me just this one time, good luck my friend."
Time Freeze End
Naruto's blade was reaching towards Renji's back until he saw that Renji's blade widened and lengthened. It extended all the way to deflect Naruto's attack.
"I'm sorry Naruto, this is just the beginning," smirked Renji.
Naruto looked at him with surprise, he didn't expect him to unlock his Shikai or even use it just this once, how unlucky could Naruto get? Naruto was in trouble and he knew it but he gave his foxy grin to Renji one last time which made him smile. This was truly one fun battle and it was only the tip of the iceberg.
Okay guys, that is the end! Hope you enjoyed it and i know there was once again a lot of information but i added in a fighting scene! with a little bit of a cliffy hanger XD
I need a bit of help:
I already know Naruto's Shikai abilities but i don't know it's name and I have trouble thinking of the Bankai.
I'm still not sure about the pairing but please remember guys... THE MORE COMMENTS I GET THE FASTER I UPDATE!!.. lets hope TT
