The True Zanpakuto
I don't own Naruto, Bleach or Assassin's Creed.
Naruto opened his eyes and found himself back inside Zangetsu's realm. He stood up and asked "What am I doing here?" Naruto felt his chest and thought "Didn't Lilynette stab me?" A voice behind him then said "Indeed she did." Naruto froze and turned around to find Muramasa standing in front of him. Muramasa smirked and said "It seems you finally understand that she is no longer a part of you." Muramasa walked toward Naruto, who said "We're inside my soul. How did you get in here?" Muramasa continued to walk and asked "Have you forgotten? I'm a Zanpakuto." Naruto drew Sawtooth and shouted "Get out of my head!" Muramasa held out his hand and Naruto suddenly felt like he was restrained.
Naruto then suddenly felt a huge pain in his gut and a seal appeared on his gut. A black blood-like liquid leaked out from it and flowed away from Naruto. A white shape rose up and the liquid fell from the shape, revealing a completely white version of Naruto with red eyes. Dark Naruto smirked and asked "You called?" Naruto fell onto his stomach and looked up at Dark Naruto in anger. Dark Naruto looked back at Naruto and said "Aw. The king is angry that I came out to play." He turned back to Muramasa and said "Still, I don't like intruders walking around my palace." He pulled a white Tensa Zangetsu out of midair pointed it at Muramasa.
Muramasa took two steps toward Dark Naruto, who suddenly dashed forward and caused Muramasa to freeze in surprise. He swung his sword and Muramasa blocked the sword. He then saw that Dark Naruto's eyes were purple with circles around his pupil. Dark Naruto continued swinging and forced Muramasa back.
Naruto gritted his teeth and thought "Move damn it! I've gotta move!" He looked up and saw Dark Naruto frozen in place with Muramasa's hand outstretched. Naruto grunted and thought "I can't let it end like this. I have to get Lilynette back!" Several glowing chains shot out from the building below Muramasa and wrapped around Muramasa while several flashes of yellow light appeared between him and Dark Naruto.
Everyone went wide eyed as two lights appeared in front of Muramasa and took human shapes. They each held out a hand and a male and female voice said "Get out." Their hands glowed and everyone was blinded.
(Outside of Naruto's Mind)
Naruto opened his eyes and saw an unconscious Soi Fon in his arms. He pushed himself up and looked to find Lilynette standing over him. Lilynette looked down at him and asked "You know what I hate about you? You always put too many burdens on yourself. You say you'll do all these things but you can never fulfill them." Tensa Zangetsu appeared in Lilynette's hand and she said "You paid more attention to other people than me." She raised her sword and said "Now I can put you out of your misery." Naruto closed his eyes and felt the presence of two people over him.
"You know our names."
"You always have."
"Call us. We'll help you and your sister."
"Tachiharae…" Lilynette frowned and asked "Excuse me?" Naruto glared up at Lilynette and shouted "Kotōmaru!" A giant pillar of red Reishi shot up off the ground and Lilynette jumped back. The light faded and left a cloud of dirt covering Naruto. A blade came down through the dirt and it parted to reveal Naruto was standing with a new weapon in his hands. It looked like a Guandao as it had a long, pole-like, handle and a double-edged blade. It also had a small axe-like blade on the top, right above the guard. Naruto dashed forward, Sharingan ablaze, and swung Kotōmaru.
Lilynette jumped back and thought "How? How does he have that sword?!" Naruto continued to jab at Lilynette with Kotōmaru until she finally used Sonído to get several yards away. She raised Tensa Zangetsu over her head and shouted "Getsuga Tenshō!" She brought it down and fired a Black Getsuga while Naruto spun Kotōmaru over his head and shouted "Kosō Renbu!" He brought Kotōmaru down and pillars of blue flame flew toward Lilynette and their attacks collided.
Naruto dashed threw the explosion and shouted "Hirameke, Ryūjōmaru!" A blue gauntlet that went up to his elbow with a sword blade in the middle of the hand and two curved parallel blades on the side appeared on his left arm and Lilynette froze. "That's… his Zanpakuto." Naruto suddenly appeared in front of Lilynette and said "Ryū Tenzoshu." Naruto's arms turned into afterimages as countless cuts appeared on Lilynette and Naruto kicked off her chest.
Lilynette panted as she clutched the shallow cuts that were bleeding and glared at Naruto. She panted and asked "How? How do you have those swords?" Naruto frowned and said "Bankai." Lilynette looked in horror as Naruto was covered in a whirlwind that blew her back fifteen yards. Two glowing wings of pink and blue energy shot out of the whirlwind and scattered it.
Naruto had a tiger head over a piece of grey fur on his right shoulder with grey strips of cloth covering his right forearm. On his left shoulder was an emblem of a dragon's head and there was a cape that went down from his waist to his toes. Under all of that was a white jacket that looked like a captain's haori. On his back was a large pink wing of energy sticking out of his right shoulder blade and a large wing of light blue sticking out of his left. In front of each was a small bronze disk glowing with the energy of the other wing. In his hands were two swords made of pink and blue energy respectively.
Naruto raised his head and said "Ryūkyū Kotōmaru. Kokyū Ryūjōmaru." He appeared in front of Lilynette and brought both his swords up as they suddenly grew in length and he shouted "Ryūkyū Zesshō! Kokyū Zesshō!" He then brought the long swords down and Lilynette was bifurcated into three pieces. She fell back and thought "Minato. Kushina." She then turned into a copy of Tensa Zangetsu and the tip lodged into the ground.
Naruto was covered in a sphere of light and he now had three swords on his being, one on his right and one below Sawtooth. He picked up Tensa Zangetsu and cried. Muramasa appeared behind Naruto with his right hand out when two people kicked him away. One looked like an older version of Naruto and the other was a woman in her mid to late twenties.
Naruto turned around as the man said "Leave our son alone." Muramasa got to his feet and wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth. He vanished and the man and the woman turned to Naruto. Naruto began walking toward them then passed out in exhaustion.
(That Night)
Naruto opened his eyes and found himself staring at a white ceiling. He heard an extremely familiar voice say "You're very lucky." Naruto sighed and asked "What are you doing here, Harribel?" Harribel folded her arms and said "Tatsuki came and got us when she was told you were going after Aizen. Rukia followed and was attacked by Sode no Shirayuki." Naruto pushed himself up when Harribel pushed him back down and said "You need to rest. The bones in your arm and leg were turned to dust. Unohana and Suiren managed to grow them back but they're not as strong as before." Naruto looked at Harribel in desperation and asked "What about the baby? Is her baby alright? And what about Fū?" Harribel nodded and said "The baby is alright and so is Fū." Naruto sighed in relief and relaxed a little.
Harribel sat back in her chair with a cup of tea and asked "Why don't you tell me about what happened?" Naruto sighed and said "Well, after Fū tried to get me to go home, Lilynette attacked us with Muramasa. It turns out that when I had met him a few hours earlier, he'd used his powers to free Lilynette." Harribel nodded as she undid the zipper of her jacket and said "Continue." Naruto struggled to remember and said "Then Muramasa got inside my head and he showed up and tried to fight Muramasa." Harribel took a sip of her tea and said "Of course." Naruto took a deep breath and said "He got restrained and was about to be killed when these chains shot up out of the side of the building in my inner world and restrained Muramasa while there was what appeared to be flashes of yellow light between them." Harribel spat out her drink and most of it landed on Naruto.
Harribel coughed and Naruto gave her an annoyed look as she looked at him and asked "Are you sure?" Naruto nodded and said "Yeah. But the weird thing was after Muramasa was forced out, I got two new Zanpakuto." Harribel sat her tea down and looked at the floor as she asked "But how's that possible?" A voice from Naruto's other side said "I believe I can answer that." They looked and saw the child version of Lilynette sitting on the bed next to him.
She looked down at Naruto and said "When he first freed me from the scroll, his Reiryoku was modified to accommodate the addition of an additional Zanpakuto. The two he just acquired were his true Zanpakuto." Lilynette frowned and said "As for the spirits, Minato and Kushina put some of their Chakra inside him as they sealed Foxy up." Naruto looked at his new swords and thought "Mom. Dad."
