(Welcome to another installment readers. Hope you're ready for yet another adventure with the Naruto team.)
The group of Naruto's were flying through a vortex, until they landed in the village of Konoha, "We made it." Regular Naruto groaned as he got up.
The Naruto's looked around as High School Naruto spoke up, "So which world are we in now?"
Beyonder appeared in an astral form, "You are all in the world of Shredder Naruto." he answered.
"My world?" Shredder Naruto gasped.
"Correct, which means you must once again battle your incarnate of the one true Shredder." Beyonder explained.
"Awesome!" Teen ninja Naruto cheered, "I get to fight Shredder again!"
"This Shredder is not like the last one," Shredder Naruto warned his counterpart, "The one we're going up against now is a demon."
"A demon?" Regular Naruto asked.
"Yes. As I mentioned before when we met the Shredder's original origin dates back long before the formation of the five great nations themselves," Shredder Naruto explained, "The first Oroku Saki fought along side his four comrades against a Tengu, until Saki allowed the demon to take his body turning him into a monster. He was eventually defeated and sealed into a sarcophagus. But the Akatsuki organization of this world tried to harness its power, and Sasuke after going rogue sought the power of the Tengu Shredder as well. However when he tried to take the power the demonic soul of Oroku Saki took Sasuke's body as his own and was reborn. It took all we had to bring the Tengu Shredder down for good. But I guess he couldn't stay dead forever." he sighed.
"Hey, we'll stop him." Spy Naruto comforted his Shredder counterpart.
"Yeah, we stopped two enemies already." Catastrophe Naruto added.
Shredder Naruto looked renewed with hope, "You're right. Beyonder, we got work to do."
"I'll leave you to it. And good luck." Beyonder vanished.
"So what do we do first?" Green Ranger Naruto asked.
"We need to get to my lair," Shredder Naruto explained, "We need to inform all my Foot ninja of the situation.
"There you are!" a voice called as they looked up and saw on a roof top was someone wearing Shredder like armor, "I've been looking for you!"
Teen Ninja Naruto gasped, "It's the Tengu Shredder! Get him!" he jumped up to the roof and started attacking the Shredder.
"No, wait!" Shredder Naruto called, only to get pushed aside as Psychic Naruto, Spy Naruto, and Regular Naruto jumped up the roof helping the Teen Ninja Naruto.
The four Naruto's easily subdued their opponent, as Psychic Naruto held it in place, "We got you now..." Teen Ninja removed the helmet of their opponent to their shock to see Ino Yamanaka, "Ino?!"
"Naruto?" Ino asked in confusion as she saw all the others, "And Naruto? What's going on here?!"
Shredder Naruto and the others make it to the roof as Shredder Naruto ordered his counterparts, "Release her!" They did so, as Shredder Naruto removed his helmet and went to her, "Are you ok, Ino?"
"Yes. I'm fine, but what's going on here, Naruto? Who're all of these guys, and why do they look like you?" she asked in confusion.
Shredder Naruto smiled sheepishly before explaining, "Well Ino, the truth is these guys are my dimensional counterparts."
"Dimensional counterparts?" Ino cocked a brow.
"It's a long story, but I'll explain later. Right now I need you to round up the guys and all active Foot members." he ordered.
"Ok." Ino said as she was still confused at the matter, but took off to complete her order.
"What was that all about?" Bang Baby Naruto asked.
"Why was Ino wearing Shredder armor?" Regular Naruto asked.
"Because Ino is both my girlfriend, and my Lady Shredder." Shredder Naruto explained.
"WHAT?!" Regular Naruto shouted in shock, "In this world I'm with Ino?!"
Catastrophe Naruto turned to Psychic Naruto and spoke, "If this is his reaction in this world, we can only imagine his reaction in our world."
"Well I can imagine he's going to have a heart attack in my world." Psychic Naruto replied seeing how he has him beat in that particular field.
Soon enough Shredder Naruto was leading his counterparts through the forest before opening up a secret passage way in the ground, "Whoa, this is super secret stuff." High School Naruto gasped.
"No kidding." Chi Wizard Naruto agreed.
"Glad you feel this impressed," Shredder Naruto began as he led them down a hall, "The original lair was totaled when Sasuke and the five heralds invaded looking for the second artifact. It took a number of months, but we reconstructed it, though some things were hard to replace such as most of the original statues." he stood before a gate and opened it.
The group entered, while Teen Ninja Naruto was in shock seeing it looked just like he expected a lair of the Foot clan to be like, "What a place." Spy Naruto admitted until the saw someone up ahead aproaching them.
"Master Shredder, welcome." the towering figure greeted him.
Teen Ninja Naruto gasped recognizing him, "Hun!"
The figure identified as Hun noticed the other Naruto's and before he could say anything, the Teen Ninja Naruto was ready to attack, only for Shredder Naruto to hold him back and spoke, "Stop! Remember this is not your world!" Teen Ninja Naruto remembering that important fact stood down and Shredder Naruto approached the man, "Counterparts, may I introduce you to my right man, Hun; leader of the Purple Dragon clan."
'Clan?' Teen Ninja Naruto thought.
"Master, who're these guys?" Hun asked in confusion.
"Hun, meet my inter dimensional counterparts." Shredder Naruto introduced to him.
Hun looked at all the different Naruto's and felt a migraine coming on, "I am so confused." he groaned.
"Don't worry all will be explained." Shredder Naruto assured his number two man, "But now expect the Foot clan to be showing up soon. We need to prepare."
"Yes, master." Hun bowed his head.
"Wow, I want a right hand man!" Regular Naruto cheered in joy.
Later that night, Shredder Naruto stood before his armada of Foot Ninja, with some of them actually being some of the fellows rookies. Standing up with Shredder Naruto included Hun, Ino, Guy, Itachi, Kisame, and Zabuza. Off to Naruto's side stood Tenten, Neji, Yoroi, and Misumi dressed as his elite Foot ninja. Next to that group stood Chouji, Shikamaru, Hinata, and Lee wearing the Shredder armor of the Four Dragons. The alternate Naruto's looked in shock, especially Regular Naruto seeing that Not only were such people as Zabuza, Haku, and Kushina were alive, but seeing such people as Yoroi Misumi, Itachi, and even Kisame were also his allies.
Shredder Naruto announced to his ninja, "Welcome Foot ninja. Tonight I bring you news of great importance. The Tengu Shredder has returned!"
This got gasps and shocking reactions out of all the ninja, even those next to their master, "How can that be?" Kiba asked in shock.
"We destroyed him!" Chouji added in equal shock.
"Are you absolutely sure about this, master?" Hun asked curiously.
"I am," Shredder Naruto answered, "I have no idea how or when he was resurrected, but he is. And whoever did so has also done resurfaced other enemies. Enemies that belong to each of them." he motioned his counterparts to step forward, making all the foot members surprised.
"Who're they?" a Foot ninja asked.
"Behold my alternate counterparts across the many universes," Shredder Naruto explained as the group of Naruto's waved sheepishly, "Though they all appear to be different from me, I promise you they are just about as much as similar to me as they are different. You are to treat each of them with the utmost respect as you do me. They have joined me here to help us in bringing down the Tengu Shredder. There's no doubt he'll be even more powerful than he was last time."
"You really think so, Naruto?" Hinata asked.
"I'm afraid so, Hinata." Shredder Naruto confirmed.
"Well ain't this troublesome." Shikamaru rolled his eyes.
"I understand how problematic it was the last time we fought him and his zombie army," Shredder Naruto nodded, "But I promise you with my alternates fighting side by side with us, we will continue to honor not only the name of the Shredder, but the Foot clan itself!" he raised his right arm up.
"Long live the Foot clan!" the members announce together.
"He can motivate, gotta give him credit." High School Naruto told the alternates who agreed.
Soon enough after the meeting, the other Naruto's were mingling with the others, with Regular Naruto and Psychic Naruto meeting Zabuza, Haku, Kushina, Yoroi, Misumi, Itachi, and Kisame, "Wow it's really incredible seeing all of you together in this world."
"What do you mean, Naruto?" Kushina asked.
"Well the fact is a lot of you are dead in my world," Regular Naruto explained, "I mean it's more shocking that you're alive, and some of you being my allies," he motioned to Kisame, Yoroi, and Misumi, "But seeing some of you again is really great." he motioned to Kushina, Zabuza, and Haku.
"I'll say, seeing some of these guys alive is a joyous reunion." Psychic Naruto agreed.
"So you came out with my hair shade?" Kushina asked the psychic counterpart of her son.
"No I'm afraid," Psychic Naruto admitted, "I dyed my hair."
"Well you still look good with it." Kushina smiled.
'And it's nice to see you too mom." Psychic Naruto added.
"Our Shredder counterpart is lucky just like Teen Ninja, and even High school Naruto. I know in their worlds so far you're alive." Regular Naruto stated as Kushina smiled and hugged him along with Psychic Naruto.
"Even if I'm not alive in either of your worlds. A mother always watches over their child."
"We figured that out." Psychic Naruto admitted.
Shredder Naruto approached, "We better go back to my place, there's better rooming for all of you there."
"Cool." Regular Naruto admitted as the Foot Ninja were dismissed.
Meanwhile far from Konoha in a forest area, Tengu Shredder waited impatiently until Yin-Fox materialized before him, "You are late." Tengu Shredder growled in irritation.
"A thousand apologies, my patient partner." Yin-Fox answered calmly.
"Have you met my request?" Tengu Shredder inquired.
"I have," Yin-Fox answered and suddenly materializing behind him were the Five Mystics, "Behold your five heralds, new and improved."
"It is glorious to see you again, master." The fire mystic greeted him as the five bowed before him.
"And how pray tell are they improved?" The tengu crossed his arms.
"You shall see when they engage in battle," Yin-Fox explained, "You have a second chance to remake this world in your own image. If I were you I wouldn't mess this up," The tengu squinted his eyes angrily at Yin-Fox who continued, "I'll leave you all to it. Farewell." he materialized himself away.
"What do you wish of us, master?" The water mystic asked.
"My minions!" Tengu Shredder announced, "Fate has given us once again a golden opportunity! We shall return to the village of Konoha and take it as our own! Then once we've conquered it we'll lay siege to all the elemental nations and soon all of the Ninja Land will cower at my wrath!" he raised his arms high as his demonic aura was glowing around him.
"All hail Master Shredder!" The five mystics announced.
(And that's the chapter. Don't miss next time where it's the battle of the dragons and Shredders all over again. Except this time it'll be more intense.)
