Hey guys! NeroReborn here with another chapter of Naruto: Warrior of Eden. I've been having a little bit of trouble lately because I'm getting close to the last of my pre-written content for my other story. I'm not going to be publishing anymore stories until the two that I already have are either done or discontinued. Don't worry. I'm not saying that I'm giving up. Writing these stories has been a lot of fun and I will keep going at it until I run dry. Anyway, I'd like more reviews if you can because I'm still a novice at writing these stories. I'm also hoping to get a partner to help me make a crossover that I think will be really fun to read and even better to write. It's a three way crossover between Kingdom hearts, Fairy Tail, and Devil May Cry. If you want to see if you can help, PM me. Anyways, here is the next chapter. ENJOY!

Disclaimer: I don't own anything but the idea.

Kushina looked at Vandheer with awe. Sitting in front of her was a man that fought god and lived. Vandheer looked outside and said "It is already morning. I must refrain from taking too much of your time. Your son has something to go to soon." Kushina looked surprised and then remembered "The team placements! How could I have forgotten!?" Vandheer was about to go back into Naruto but then said "Sorry to pry, but I don't believe that I ever got your name." Kushina nodded and said "Kushina, my name is Kushina." Vandheer nodded and said "A very good name. I will tell you the rest of my story at a later time. For now, this is farewell." Then he vanished.

Naruto woke up with a start. He looked around and noticed that he wasn't in the woods that he blacked out in. Then he remembered everything. Mizuki's speech, The black man who saved him, and Mizuki's death. Naruto felt like he was going to be sick when he remembered the blood.

"Naruto-chan, are you awake?" Naruto stayed silent. Kushina entered his room. She felt guilt as Naruto looked up at her in tears. "Is it true, Kaa-san? Am I really a monster?" Kushina walked over and embraced Naruto. She then said "No. You aren't a monster Naruto. I tried to stop the fourth from sealing the fox into you but he took you anyway. It's my fault that you're like this. I wasn't strong enough to stop him from taking you." Naruto looked at her. He hugged her close and said "No, it's not your fault Kaa-san. You weren't the one who decided to seal the fox in me."

The hugged for a few minutes and then separated. Kushina looked at Naruto and said "Thank you Naruto-chan. Now get ready, you have team placements to get to." Naruto looked surprised and said "But I failed the test." Kushina pulled out a headband from her pocket and tied it around his forehead. "You proved your worth when you stood up against Mizuki. Now get going." Naruto then ran around the room grabbing a fresh pair of clothes, a quick bite to eat and raced out the door with his headband still on.

Kushina giggled at her son's antics but then had a serious look on her face. She then left the house and started walking towards the Hokage tower.

Hiruzen Sarutobi was mulling over the bain of all Kages, Paperwork. Then there was a knock on the door. He called "Come in." The door opened to reveal Kushina with a look that sent shivers down his spine. Kushina slammed her hand down on his desk and said "Hokage-sama, I want to be an instructor for Naruto's team." Hiruzen looked confused and asked "Why this all of a sudden? Has the seal weakened?" Kushina shook her head. She then said "Put up your privacy seals. What I'm about to tell you is SS-Class secrecy."

Hiruzen stopped what he was about to say and activated his seals. Kushina then said "You may not believe what I'm about to tell you but it is all true." She then told Hiruzen everything that happened from Vandheer killing Mizuki to his story about his past. The third Hokage was speechless. The boy that he saw as a grandson housed someone even more dangerous than the Kyuubi and, from what Kushina told him, Kyuubi was afraid of this then asked "Is this man a threat?" Kushina shook her head and said "No, I don't think he is. He appeared to save Naruto and had a civil conversation with me. He even wields one of the blades of Eden!" That caught Sarutobi's attention. He asked "You mean the legendary blades rumored to be able to kill gods?!" Kushina nodded and said "The very same. He even once held all four blades in his possession. But he hid them to keep them from falling into the wrong hands."

Sarutobi nodded and said "Well, if you're sure then I think I can make an arrangement." Kushina bowed and said "Thank you, Hokage-sama." She then turned and left. Sarutobi then started to rub his temples while saying "That woman give me more trouble than Naruto does. Hehe, Guess it runs in the family." He then went back to doing his paperwork.

Meanwhile

Naruto just got to his classroom. He had a giant grin on his face as he sat down. Then screaming was heard. He turned around and saw what was making the noise. It was Sakura Haruno and Ino Yamanaka.

Sakura was a 12 year old girl who had yet to hit puberty. She had bubblegum pink hair and emerald green eyes. She wore a pink dress with biker shorts underneath. She was often bullied because of her forehead but Naruto stopped that 7 years ago.

Flashback

A 5 year old Sakura was crying against a tree while three boys threw rocks at her. Then a shout was heard. "HEY, LEAVE HER ALONE." Naruto stood in front of Sakura. The biggest of the boys looked at him angrily and said "Get lost kid. You have no part in this." Naruto looked at him with steel in his eyes. The large boy scoffed and said "Fine, we'll just beat you up too." The boy advanced only to get a fist to his face.

He stumbled backwards holding his face. Naruto then ran forward and kneed him in the gut. The three bullies were scared. They ran away shouting "WE'LL GET YOU FOR THIS!"

Naruto looked over at Sakura, who was still crying. He kneeled in front of her and asked "Hey, are you alright?" She looked up at him with tears still flowing. She sniffed a few times and said "Yeah. I'm fine. Thank you for saving me." Naruto then asked "Why were they hurting you?" Sakura looked nervous but then said "Everybody laughs at me because of my large forehead. They said that they wanted to use my forehead for target practice. I don't know why they hurt me for it. Why do they hurt me for something I didn't choose to have?" She started crying again.

Naruto put his hand on her shoulder. She looked up at him and saw that he was staring into her eyes and blushed a little. He then said "If anyone can relate to you it's me." She looked at him in confusion. Then he started to explain. "I'm greeted almost everyday with glares and whispers behind my back when I leave home. Everyone hates me for something and I don't know what it is. I asked my mom about it and she only said that I would learn when the time was right. I'm hated for something I don't think I ever did." Sakura looked at him with sympathy.

Naruto then said "We know each other's pain. You want to be friends?" Sakura looked at him with surprise written all over her face but then smiled and said "I'd like that."

End Flashback

Then there was Ino. She was about the same height as Sakura but wore a purple tank top with purple shorts with her stomach covered in wraps. She had blue eyes but nowhere near as intense as Naruto's. She had pale skin and her hair was a platinum blonde color and it dropped all the way to her knees in a ponytail. Naruto didn't know her personally but he knew that she used to be Sakura's best friend but became her rival when she heard that Sakura had a crush on Sasuke.

Speaking of, Naruto then noticed who the person sitting at the end of his table was. A boy about his age with raven black hair in the shape of a duck's butt. He wore a blue high collar shirt with a symbol that looked like a fishing bobber (I couldn't resist) and tan shorts. This was Sasuke Uchiha. Presently the little emo was brooding as always in a corner. He had a MAJOR superiority complex embedded into his personality.

"What are you doing here Naruto? This is only for the people who passed." Naruto turned to who was speaking. It was a boy with a feral facial expression. He had red marks on his cheeks. He wore a gray jacket and long pants. In his jacket was a small dog that just yipped along with him. This was Kiba Inuzuka.

Naruto groaned and said "If you can't tell, I did pass Kiba. I'm wearing a headband aren't I?" Kiba laughed and said "There's no way a dead-last like you could pass." Naruto's teacher, Iruka, Then walked into the classroom. Then he said "Alright, everybody sit down. Now…" (I'm going to spare you the boring long speech.)

Iruka then said "Alright, now for the team placements. Team one will be…" (Mini timeskip) "Team seven will be Naruto Uzumaki, Sakura Haruno, and Sasuke Uchiha." He looked at the sensei for the team and looked shocked for a second. Then he said "For special reasons, team seven will be getting two senseis. Your senseis will be Kakashi Hatake and Kushina Uzumaki." Naruto was surprised that his mom was one of his senseis. Iruka went through the rest of the list. (I don't want to write this part so it's the same as cannon.)

Timeskip

It had been two hours since Iruka had told them to wait for their senseis and Naruto was bored out of his mind. The door suddenly opened. All of team seven looked and were surprised.

Kakashi was standing alongside Kushina. Kakashi was wearing what he usually wore but kushina was different. She was wearing her old anbu uniform with black fingerless gloves and had a long katana at her side. She had tied her hair back into a ponytail and had her hands on her hips. Kushina said "Team seven, report to the roof." Then she and Kakashi disappeared. Then the members of team seven started to make their way to the roof, wondering what was in store for them.

Whew. This was a chore to write. I'm debating between there being a relationship between Vandheer and Eivana later in the story or having Vandheer get together with Kushina. I'm also trying to make it so that the bosses from the second game show up some time soon. This is a crossover that has never been done before so I have no predecessor to use as an example. I know who is going to carry the rebellion captain and Eivana. Also to clarify, The rebellion captain's name was never given so I'm just going to call him Armed with wings or AWW for short. anyway please review. This is NeroReborn and I'll see you guys next time. CHOU!
