Disclaimer- I don't own Naruto, One Piece, Bleach, or Shrek.

The Walk back to Naruto's home was quite and uneventful, and it was driving Luffy nuts! And the worst part about it was he was drawing a blank on anything to get Naruto to open his mouth. At first he tried bring up the weather, but that was shot down with a simple "Yeah." After a while, he tried to break the silence with a little whistling tune, but that was knocked out of the sky with a punch to the face!

Before he could try again with some really bad jokes, Naruto's cave came into view. 'Thank You!' Were the thoughts in his thick skull, but he replied with "Is that your place?"

"Yeah, it is." Was Naruto's soul reply.

'Damnit, this guy's killing me over here' Luffy thought to himself even though he wanted to scream it to the world. Luffy's frustrated attention was diverted to one of the dozen signs that were placed in various spots in front of the cave. All of witch were about the same, wooden slabs nailed to a plank imbedded in the ground that all said "KEEP OUT!" and "BEWARE OF DEMON!" and had pictures of a nasty looking fox demon painted on it. "…I guess you don't entertain much." Was Luffy's one response after seeing all the signs.

"I like my privacy." Naruto said as he walked towards the only entrance to his home. Taking his que, Luffy decided it was time to break silence.

"You know, I do too!" He replied as he broke the distance between him and Naruto and pulled him in shoulder to shoulder. "We've got that in common. Like, I hate it when you've got someone in your face. You're trying to get them to back off, but they just won't quit. Then there's that big, awkward silence you…" He would have kept going, but Naruto's glare cut him off for a moment and he let go of Naruto's Shoulder. A moment passed before Luffy spoke again. "…Why are you letting me stay here?"

"…There are a few reasons." Naruto stated as both he and Luffy made there way to the table in his home. "One, I'm a little out of touch with info on the other tailed demons, and this would be a good chance to find out what's up with everyone." Luffy only nodded to this, he could use this time to touch up his own info on Naruto as well. "And two, I doubt you would had left if I said no, so there was no point in saying no." He commented with an irritated look on his face.

Luffy only chuckled at this as he pulled up a chair. "Hehe, Yeah. That dose sound like me." He then reached into his back pocket and pulled out a notebook and a pencil. "So what do you need to know?"

Naruto pulled out a notebook and Pencil of his own and turned to Luffy. "Let's start with the one tail. What's his name?"

"His name is Garra. Red Hair. Short. Controls sand. Lives alone in the desert. Doesn't talk much, or sleep much for that matter. He's got bags under his bags under his eyes. Hmmm… What else? Oh yeah, and he's got a Japanese Kanji over his left eye that stands for Love." Luffy stated while looking over his notes. This was the norm for the tailed demons. Keeping tabs on each other was a good way to still be in the loop.

"Anything else?" Naruto asked as he wrote down the last of that bit of info.

"Not really. No" was his only reply.

"Right, what about the two tails?" He asked, although he could guess the answer.

Luffy only groaned in frustration at this question. "Hell if I know. I haven't seen his flame retardant butt in over 30 years, let alone heard anything." This was something that concerned all tailed demons. Without any knowledge of any of the tailed demons, chaos would start among other, lesser demons. If a tailed demon died before he or she could pass on the powers they own, anyone could get there hands on it.

"Hmmm… Not good. But there's not we can do about that right now." Naruto stated as he scratched his head. Luffy nodded in agreement, until new info came up, all they could do is wait.

"Ok, now what about the three tails?" Naruto asked getting back on topic. This continued for the rest of the afternoon. Gathering info on all the tailed demons took up a lot of the day.

"Finally! All done! Man I'm starved. What's for dinner?" Luffy grinned as he got up to stretch, only for Naruto to glare at him. He would have made a snappy comment, but his own growling stomach beat him to it. Luffy's grin only grew hearing that.

"…Fine. I'll go get some fish the lake." He grumbled as he got up.

"Cool. Just one question though."

"What?"

"You said you don't have much company, right?"

"…Yeah. Why?"

"Well then who are these guys?" Naruto stopped mid step and turned around to see Luffy pointing to three toad demons now sitting on his table. There only reaction to Naruto's surprised and stunned expression was a grin and a wave.

"Hey there big guy." Called out one of the three. It was an orange toad with blue markings and wearing a grayish-blue vest. "The names Gamakichi. This is my Brother, Gamatatsu." He pointed to a pudgy, yellow toad with orange markings and a blue vest. "And my old man, Gamabunta." He then pointed to an older, brown toad with red markings wearing a gray and white vest and had a long pipe hanging from his mouth.

"…Huh?" was Naruto's only response.

Gamakichi sighed before replying "I said I'm Gamaki…" He never got finish before Naruto grabbed them by the legs and held them in the air, Gamakichi and Gamatatsu in one hand, and Gamabunta in the other.

"I Heard You The First Time!" He yelled at them in anger. "I want to know why you're in my house you little…" This it was Naruto that was interrupted by Gamabunta.

"Let go of me you whippersnapper!" Gamabunta yelled as he broke out of Naruto's grip, jumped into the air, and hit him in the head with the metal end of his pipe.

"OW!" He groaned as he dropped the other two toads and clutched his head in pain. "You stupid little Frogs! Why I Outta…" His fit of rage was interrupted by two things this time. One was Luffy's uncontained laughter, and the other was Gamabunta jumping up from the ground and hitting him in the head with his pipe again. "OW! STOP THAT!"

"First off." Gamakichi stated, interrupting Naruto's boiling rage in the process. "Don't ever call us Frogs. We're Toad Demons and proud of it. Second, I don't know why you're so bent out of shape. We're not the ones in your bed." Naruto's anger turned into confusion as he turned to his bedroom.

Letting the toads be for the moment, he made his way to his room only to see a Tengu Demon in Resting in his bed with a book in his hands. He diverted his attention from his book to the image of an irritated fox demon standing at the door way. "Oh hi there!" he quickly stated in a panicking tone as he jumped into a kneeling position on the bed. "Pleased too meet you. My name is Usopp and I…"

"Don't Care." Naruto interrupted as he grabbed Usopp by the Nose and dragged him to the front of the cave ignoring the cries of pain. "I like my privacy. I don't have guests over, and the one time I have someone over everyone decides it's ok to crash at my place! I live in the mountains and put up signs to keep people out! What Dose A Guy Have To Do To GET SOME PRIVACY AROUND HERE?!" He Yelled as he Tossed Usopp in to the clearing in front of his cave.

However the space invading moment still hade not passed as Naruto was greeted with the sight of hundreds of demons that we're now all over the forest around his mountain cave. "…Ok, that's it." He growled in anger as he transformed into his Nine Tailed from "WHAT ARE YOU DOING ON MY MOUNTAIN!" He roared out load in anger. This made all the other demons freeze in fear, except for Luffy who clearing out his ear to stop the ringing in his head as he walked out of the cave.

"Damn Naruto. Why don't you yell a little louder. I can still here out of this…" He was cut off as Naruto grabbed him by his vest and pinned him up against the wall. "What the Hell, man?!"

"Why did you invite all of these demons on to my mountain?" Naruto growled out still in his tailed demon forum.

"Invited?" Both Naruto and Luffy's attention was diverted to a small Tanuki demon in a pink top hat; maroon colored shorts, and a blue nose. His name, Tony Tony Chopper. "We we're forced come here!" At this info, Naruto let Luffy go and reverted back into his normal forum.

"Forced? By who? And How?" He asked in an irritated tone.

"Lord Spandam." Gamakichi answered as he hopped out of Naruto's home. "He got anyone he could to catch us for money and then dumped us on this mountain. Then he got some sealing masters to imprison us here."

"Show me one of the seals."

Gamakichi just pointed to a patch trees in the forest to the left of Naruto's home. He glared for a moment before he ran off into the forest. Finding the tree with seal wasn't hard. It was glowing a bright green light and looked like a large electric fence. The discharge that linked the seals together was strong, but the guys that made this didn't count on a tailed being within the fence.

Making his way to the clearing, he caught the attention of the other demons "Alright. I've hade it with this crap! I want all of you out of here! But that fence is strong, and nothing you guys do is gonna break it!" This statement dashed there hopes of getting out of here against the wall. "However, incase you haven't noticed, I'm a Tailed Demon. Also, he's the four tailed monkey." He pointed to Luffy who only grinned. "So this Fence has got nothing on us! We can't open it for everyone, so we're going to source so he can take those seals down and get all of you the hell off of my land!" This was meant to be a threat, he didn't count on all of the demons cheering and applauding him. Naruto rolled his eyes and motioned Luffy to follow him.

As both Naruto and Luffy made there way back to the glowing green fence, Naruto Transformed into he Nine Tailed Forum "Are you Ready Monkey King?" Naruto growled out.

Luffy's only answer was a smirk before he slammed his fists on top of each other. Pulling them apart manifested a red staff in his hands before he started to transform as well. His Black hair turned white and grew out on his arms and legs, and his one black tail split into four white tails. "I've been ready." He said with grin.

Naruto nodded and walked up to the fence then punched a hole with both fists and grabbed the hole before it could close. He then had his nine tails grab an edge of the hole and with what looked like no effort at all, stretched the hole open enough so he could walk through. As he walked through, he let go for a second only from Luffy's red staff to jet through and holed it open, then like Naruto, used his tails and arms to walk through. After pass the fence, he grabbed his staff and transformed back into his normal from along side Naruto.

Naruto noticed that Luffy seemed a little happier then normal after getting passed the fence. "What's with you?"

"What? I love adventures! And this feels like a good one!" He was practically bouncing off the walls. "I'm so happy, I feel like singing!"

'Oh shit.' Was the only thought going through Naruto's mind. This was going to be a long trip.
