Hey guys Kenkou with a chapter of six paths here for you.
Now I know I haven't updated in a long time and I'm sorry for that but I have had a lot going on and wasn't able to write or find inspiration to write at all so here goes a new chapter which will be a little bad after not writing for so long.
Pure pain coursed through Naruto's body. It felt as though his skin was being burned off and reformed over and over again. He lay in his apartment screaming from the pain, back arched in the air and small pools of blood surrounding where he lay in his bed. He grit his teeth as another burst of pain went through him this time center on his forehead.
"Keep it up Kit. Your almost there. Just a little more." The Kyuubi encouraged inside the young boy's mind. Naruto thrashed about hitting the walls leaving dents and cracks in them. He almost regretting making himself go through this but he knew it would make him stronger.
After another hour of suffering, the pain subsided. Naruto lay still on his mattress, panting and covered in sweat. He slowly raised his head to look in a small mirror on his dresser. There on his forehead was a gash about an inch and a half long. Going up vertically from between his eyebrows. The gash slowly widened until it opened revealing a blank eye. Slowly a pupil came into view. A purple pupil with a ripple pattern originating from the iris.
-4 hours prior-
Naruto walked into his apartment happily. He had just graduated from the academy, killed the traitor Mizuki, and healed Iruka. Life was looking up for him. He now had control over his paths and could bring them into the world at will. Walking past his kitchen and going straight into his bedroom he stripped his shirt and pants, leaving himself in a pair of boxers, and collapsed face first onto his bed. He was about to go to sleep when he felt the familiar pull of Kyuubi bringing him to his mindscape, only this time it seemed stronger almost urgent.
Naruto closed his eyes and opened them again inside the small clearing his mind scape was modeled into. He gasped in shock, his paths were laying on the ground pale and lifeless, the trees and grass were all dying and Kyuubi was pumping chakra into the seal to keep it steady.
"What happened in here?" He yelled to the fox.
"The paths…..power conflicted….ugh..too much to hold…in one mind!" The nine tails grunted out focusing more chakra to the seal.
Naruto looked down in thought. His paths powers were conflicting with one another's. If they were separate entities this wouldn't happen but he had them all inside his head.
"This must be why I could hear Iruka-sensei's thoughts earlier!" Naruto quickly focused his chakra to the seal, temporarily supporting it. "Kyuubi, we need to fix this, now."
"I have been trying. Nothing seems to be working. Either we use people's bodies for them to inhabit or we let them all merge. Just so you know, that would kill you probably. Seven minds in the same head never works out for anyone." The fox told him as he stretched out, happy for the break in seal repair. Naruto went deep into thought. He didn't want to use people's bodies, that was just gross. Letting them merge would either kill him or make him go bonkers. He thought back to a sealing technique he had read about. The seal was called "Saadoai NoSunpou". Or the Third Eye Dimension. This seal created a small pocket dimension for the user. It could store thousands of items, even bodies. Only two people on record had ever attempted the seal. Both died horribly due to the seals draw backs. It completely broke down the users body, and even if they lived they would need to have massive amounts of chakra to use the seal effectively.
"Kyuubi, I got an idea but it's risky. Can you heal say, a decomposing body?"
"Well not a dead one. No. But if the person was still somewhat alive or at least brain-dead then yeah. But I would be really tired after."
"Then get ready to be exhausted." Naruto quickly got to work, going to a small pond near by. He knelt on the bank and stuck his head in the water. He opened his eyes and saw bubble floating under the surface each with images inside them. His memories. He willed for all the memories involving the seal to come to him. They quickly approached and popped on his head. Resurfacing Naruto sat in the center on the field and crossed his legs. Making the tiger seal.
"Let's do this Kyu." Naruto began the jutsu.
-Present Time-
Naruto quickly roused from his sleep. He must have passed out after the jutsu. Quickly bouncing off his bed and running into the bathroom he observed his forehead in the mirror. The eye was there. The jutsu was a success. Gazing at himself he smiled. Naruto Uzumaki One! Forbidden Jutsu Zip! He went about his morning routine of showering and brushing his teeth. Wrapping a towel around his waist he walked back into his room and promptly tripped over something. Landing on his face he grumbled into the ground something that sounded similar to a long string of curses and something that sounded like stupid waffles…(Naruto: Waffles? Really? Me: I don't know man. I was half asleep writing this. Naruto: You always use that excuse) The blonde glanced down at his feet to see he had tripped over an arm. Another person's arm. Looking up slowly he peered at the person's face. It was his deva path! Only with longer hair now. Other that exactly the same. Getting up Naruto looked around seeing all his other paths seemingly passed out on his floor. Only now they all looked like him. But there were differences. Deva had longer hair, Asura had visible fangs, Human had no whisker marks, Animal seemed buffer, Preta was huskier, and Naraka was thinner. After a minute of though Naruto concluded that he must have brought the paths physical forms into this world through the seal. Quickly focusing chakra to his new eye the bodies floated up and were absorbed into it. "Ok…..that was awesome." Naruto thought to himself as he dresses in his attire. Today he sported a stylish black short sleeve shirt with a large white stripe dividing the shirt into three equal parts. A part of dark blue ninja pants with multiple pockets on the legs. And over it all he wore his favorite black trench coat. "Trench coats are awesome."
-Somewhere in Konoha-
Anko Mitarashi was sitting in her living room, enjoying a breakfast of dango, dango and more dango. Suddenly she sneezed and felt her ears heat up. "Someone wears a trench coat….I must taste his blood." She resumed eating her dango, planning on her torture for someone else in Konoha daring to try to steal her style.
-Back with Naruto-
Slipping on his black and gray sandals Naruto locked his door and started to walk to the ninja academy. Proudly wearing his head band on his forehead to cover his new optic, he smiled with determination. Look out ninja world, he comes a new legend.
