One of a kind.
Here's chapter 10, so and so...enjoy.
Disclaimer: I don't own any of the two series involved...I just fantasize about owning 'em.
Chapter 10: Slaughter over bonding.
The 11th ward was in a state of chaos, the streets were empty all were inside in fear of being caught in the cross fire. CCG investigators had swarmed the shopping center located within the district, breaching in to annihilate the Aogiri Tree organization right there and then…this is one battle that will separate the strong from the weak…probably from decapitation.
"It's oddly quiet, I haven't heard the mad cackle of Naruto in a while." Gaara said as he walked up a flight of stairs with Yugito following.
"You're right…it isn't like him to be so silent…do you think…" Yugito said with a grimace.
"Unlikely, it takes more than this take him down." The redhead spoke as they finally reached the next floor, which had been cleared most likely by Zabuza and Haku.
"I have to give them credit, they know how to kill." Yugito said as she leaned against the wall.
"Hmmhm…we will continue on in three minutes." Gaara informed his partner and she nodded
The blond in question had been strolling through many empty halls, he could still hear the sound of battle from below, but he was curious about a scent that he picked up a while ago. It was so familiar, it kept giving him a flash of images of that day, could it be…was it that MAN. He stopped as he thought about it, if it were said man, it would be his lucky day. His sick yet peaceful walk had turned into a mad dash as he followed the scent.
Rank 1 Ghoul investigator Minato Namikaze aka the Yellow Flash called such due to his signature weapon Hiraishin and his incredible swiftness, patrolled a hallway littered with bodies of his fellow investigators and some ghouls, they all seem to be killed by the same person.
'Those are some deep cuts, Rinkaku probably…doesn't appear to be a team player…that's if they are part of Aogiri.' Minato thought as he crouched near a downed Investigator examining his wounds, this one had been slashed horizontally across the bridge of the nose nearly splitting the head off.
'A clean cut…must be an S-rank.' If he was going to say anything else he couldn't as he rolled to the side avoiding a dangerously fast tendril that had crushed the investigator he was examining.
"You live up to your moniker." An eerie voice spoke from the darkness of the hallway.
Minato watched as the black and orange flesh like tendril retreat back into the darkness. He narrowed his eyes hoping to at least get an outline of his attacker.
"And who might you be?" Minato asked as he hovered his thumb over the release button of his case. He heard a set of foot steps before his attacker revealed himself.
He was garbed in a black sleeve-less tight spandex shirt with a dark orange tribal swirl on the chest and back surrounded by tail like streaks. He had on dark red opera-length finger-less gloves and he had on grey baggy pants and dark red leather boots that reached his knees, with steel toes. He has pale blond hair spiking out backwards falling to his shoulder-blades with two jagged jaw-length bangs framing his fox styled mask. Wrapped around his waist was a black tail with orange bone like protrusions.
"How you hurt my heart Namikaze…but it is understandable, it's been quite some years since we last interacted. I was young at the time, I used to look up to you, to me you were like a god among men…I was sourly mistaken. A once great man, became my most hated villain, one that I always imagined skewered high above skewered by my wrath. The day you killed my mother…the day you killed you wife Kushina Uzumaki, I made a promise to her…a promise to myself…I made it my ultimate goal to destroy you…Tou-san…and you can Believe that!"
Minato's heart skipped a beat, the man standing in front of him was his son…the son he has been searching for, for the past 18 years was here, and it looked like he wouldn't escape this family reunion without a few deep gashes and most likely a missing arm.
"N-Naruto…"
Naruto let out a low growl as he took one step forward.
"Please let me explain-" Minato found himself avoiding a rather quick yet powerful fist that struck the wall he was standing in front of.
"Explain…EXPLAIN! What is there to explain, you murdered my mother! Was it a mistake, did you trip, fall and stab her with you weapon by accident cause that would be hilarious!" Naruto had lost all sense of thought as he ranted at his father.
"Calm down Naruto…you're acting sluggish." Kurama said as he tried to calm down the blond who let out a chuckle as he controlled his breathing.
"Naruto…there was no other way." Minato had no idea how he could explain it to his son, but what he said seemed to have made him even angrier as a second tail sprouted from his back.
"No other way…no other way! You are a sick demented bastard!" Naruto once again lunged at his father who barely evaded the pouncing Naruto.
"It was for your safety!" Minato yelled.
"I don't give a shit about my safety! You took away what gave me sanity in this God damned world!" the blond haired ghoul was able to catch his father off guard by snaking a third tail in the mess of bodies and deeply graze his shin.
Minato grunted as he felt the sharp pain shoot up his leg as he saw a thin tail trying to dig into his leg. He jumped back and clicked the button on his case revealing his weapon Hiraishin, a medium length dark grey three pronged blade with a ring at the hilt, it sparked with yellow static.
"If you won't listen, I'll have to contain you." Minato declared with a narrowed gaze.
"…We shall see about that." Naruto said as he pounced at Minato.
Everyone in the building stopped as they felt the building shake from a powerful impact.
'So the day has arrived.' Gaara thought with a sigh.
"I never anticipated his father would be here." Yugito said as they stood in their full group with only Naruto missing.
"Wait whose father?" Zabuza asked looking between the two.
"Naruto's father." Yagura said, causing the new members of the group to raise their brows.
"Father? What's this about his father."
"His father is a CCG investigator…and is responsible for his mother's death." Yugito informed, and Zabuza did not expect this information.
"That's a bastard of a move." Fu commented as her mind drifted off to their blond leader that she has known for a short while.
"Yes it is, and Naruto has devoted most of his life to hunting down the man…today is the day the face each other in over 18 years." Yagura said.
"We should go help him out." Fu suggested.
"No, the best we can do is to keep out any unwanted guests into their fight." Yugito said.
"But-" Fu tried to argue but was silenced by the glare sent to her by the older female.
"Naruto's orders."
"O-Okay then."
Touka did not know why her mind wandered to her blond partner, this always happened when something crazy was about to take place. The atmosphere of his battles were mostly subtle and barely noticeable but, within her she could sense this battle was different. He was fighting his father.
"What's wrong?" Nishiki asked the purple haired girl.
"It's Naruto." She replied, Nishiki raised a brow in confusion.
"Yeah, what about him?"
"He's battling his father." This further confused the spectacled young man.
"Father? Why would he be fighting against his father?"
"Long story short, his father is a dove and killed his mother." She said and Nishiki nodded, he could sort of understand how Naruto was feeling about that kind of thing.
"Right, we should hurry up and get Kaneki then we can assist Naruto." Nishiki said pulling Touka from her spot.
Minato grunted as he slammed against a wall, coughing out a glob of blood. He had underestimated his son, he doesn't remember him being able to produce such Kagune, he was certain that he had only inherited his mother's Rinkaku Kagune, but so far he had seen him produce an Ukaku Kagune as well as a Koukaku Kagune.
'Is it possible for a Ghoul to obtain different Kagune types with some sort of method?' he thought as he warily watched his son who had a healing gash across his chest.
"You're sloppy oldman…mother was a SS-rated Ghoul, she gave you quite the tough time…you've been sitting on your ass for a very long time." Naruto mocked as let out a cackle running towards his father, who grunted as he launched his sword at Naruto, the blade traveled so fast that the ghoul was caught by surprise as it stabbed into his abdomen and pinned him to the wall. He let out a pain howl before growling watching as his father rushed in for the finishing blow.
'Never!' he roared along with Kurama in his mind as his back burst open a flood of red liquid painting the entire wall red and multiple tendrils shot out completely covering Naruto's form and rushing at Minato who halted in his haste and flipped back take cover behind a pillar. The tendrils slammed into the pillar with so much brute force that the impact sent Minato flying from his hiding spot.
'What the hell! That's Kushina's signature technique.' He thought as he scrambled to his feet dodging the angry and vicious whips.
Ghoul investigator Marude watched the building with folded arms awaiting their victory over the Ghouls. He raised a brow as he felt a slight tremor originate from the building, he shrugged it off as just something large crashing, however he did not anticipate to see a barrage of tendrils shoot out through the side of the building.
"HOLY CRAP!" he exclaimed jumping back as he saw the tendrils snake along the building and bore through different parts of it like earthworms.
"Report! Report! Will someone fucking report!" He ordered through his earpiece, all he got was screaming and sounds of surprise and pain.
"What is going on in there!?" he asked through gritted teeth.
Yugito and Gaara were forced to jump over dozens upon dozens of red/black/orange tendrils that impaled anything in their path. The Doves they were currently facing were quickly killed by the tendrils that appeared to have a mind of their own.
"T-That's Naruto." Yugito said in shock at seeing the large scale Kagune burrow through the building like a sheet of paper.
"I've never seen such a thing." Gaara commented in awe.
Zabuza has seen many things in his life, some good and some bad…but in his whole 30 years of roaming this planet, never has he seen what was fast coming towards his and Haku's direction. An ocean of red/black/orange tendrils was on a collision course with them.
"What in the name of Chuck Norris is that!?" He exclaimed grabbing Haku and running down the narrow passage and hoping over the railing to avoid the sea of tendrils.
'What Ghoul could posses such power?' Zabuza thought as he landed on a different level, which also had parts of the tendrils.
'These things stretch all over the building.' Haku thought as her father released her from his grip.
She saw her father poke at the tendrils, and they let out an orange pulse of light.
"These look oddly like Naruto's Kagune." Zabuza said as he suspected the blond was behind this.
Yagura and Fu watched the onslaught of tendrils from their spots on a pillar with interest. Yagura already had an idea on what was happening, while Fu was both clueless and frightened at the sight of the snake like creatures.
"Alright I'm freaking out now! What is going on!?" Fu cried out turning to her rather clam partner.
"Naruto is what's happening." Yagura replied.
'WHAT!? Naruto-kun is responsible for this.' Fu thought in fear and awe.
"Your crush can be a monster when he wants to." Yagura commented with a chuckle.
Fu blushed at the mention of her crush on the blond before turning back to watch the destruction his Kagune was causing.
"Oh, Naruto-kun as decided to murder someone." Uta said with a small smirk as he witnessed what Naruto was capable of.
"He must be in a battle with his father." Yomo said causing Tsukiyama to gain a questioning look.
"Oh so the psychopathe has daddy issues." Tsukiyama joked only to receive two pairs of deadpan expressions.
"Watch your tongue or you won't have one." Uta warned with a glare.
"I'll note that from now on." He said with a nervous chuckle
Yoshimura took Naruto's outburst as his cue to re-introduce the Owl as he transformed into Kakuja form standing taller than his frail self and taking off to the roof of the building.
Touka and Ayato stopped their vicious bout as numerous appendages burst from below them and proceeded to destroy anything standing in their way.
"What!?" Ayato exclaimed as he was slammed into a large air con leaving behind a deep dent.
Touka braced herself for impact expecting the tendrils to attack her but they stopped mere inches from her, they seemed to be 'sniffing' at her, one reached out and stroked her face before joining the others on their rampage.
'Naruto.' She thought.
Hinami stood far from the building watching with Irimi and Koma, they could clearly see the tendrils wrapping around the building like a boa.
"Onii-chan." Hinami said as she hugged Irimi for comfort, said woman offered the little girl what she needed as she hugged her smaller form.
"Hmm, that is something alright." Koma commented scratching the back of his head.
End of chapter 10.
There it is, next chapter will have more fighting between Naruto and Minato. You must be wondering what the hell is up with the huge scale Kagune, why did Minato kill Kushina, will Naruto ever forgive his father, why is Minato so weak (Sort of already explained…and Naruto has been training for 18 years for this moment.). I know I'm pushing a Ghoul's capabilities when it comes to Naruto, but the mystery of what happened in the first Chapter is still floating about in the air.
A guest Reviewer had mentioned something about Naruto showcasing some of his cannon abilities, I doubt I'll be able to add that into that fic, but there will be something involving Sasuke's sword that he devoured earlier in his life.
There is no Omake, cause I couldn't really think of anything with this kind of atmosphere.
A serpent shall only truly ascend once he is acknowledged…so please Review, please, pretty please with a bloody cherry on top…fine…please!
