Chapter 14
Their father had just put it so bluntly that nobody bothered to dare lay a hand on him. He was going to partially use his Cluster form to end the war once and for all. "Dad, let's think about this for a second alright? You're talking about killing thousands without any warning, we don't even know how many are innocent." Nakura said hoping to try and talk his father down. "You're sad that mom died and we just buried her, I get it, but you're talking about mass genocide." He received no answer. "Dad, please just-"
"They won't be talked down." The Cluster Gem stated. "You know, they know it, and I know it all too well; your mother understood that and it's why she didn't try and argue with me." He sighed. "If she had, then we wouldn't be having this conversation and here we are, you against me; with you truly not understanding why I'm about to do." All of his eyes opened. "Nakura you must understand that something like this is going to help this world, when they're gone then the humans of this world will finally be able to live fully on this planet without having to fight each other over things that start wars like this one." He said but with something standing out.
"Live fully on this planet, what are you talking about?" the younger blonde questioned.
"You never thought that it was odd how everyone only knows the Elemental Nations ad nothing else around the world? Why the western, east, and southern parts of this world aren't talked about? That's because this is it, the Elemental Nations houses what's left of humanity on this planet, and right now war is decreasing the number of humans left by the hundreds." He explained. "Do you understand now why what I'm about to do is what's best for this version of humanity?" the blonde Half Gem began to rack his brain as what his father said, the man was right, nobody ever spoke of the rest of the world; it was like nobody ever explored it. they were so caught up in this place that nobody ever bothered to try and expand, and whoever did think about it or try to talk about it were likely ignored or laughed at like it was some kind of joke. But if he let his father have his way then they wouldn't just rebuild, they would expand with his help. But there was something else, his dad had a personal reason as well.
"What's out there that's important to you? What are you hiding?" the young man questioned. "I know you dad, you were great at hiding birthday presents from us and I get the feeling that this is so much more that you're hiding from us; what is it?" Naruto couldn't help but smile.
"Let me tell you about Kaguya and my three other students The First Hokage, Mito Uzumaki, and Madara Uchiha; and how we were so close to bringing peace to this place enough to where we would've been able to expand." And so he told his son everything. From him and his group landing here, his encounter with a young Kaguya and letting her eat the fruit from his tree, his training her, and her using her powers bring peace until it happened. Hamura Ōtsutsuki and Hagoromo, her owns sons betrayed her but all due to a single thing. "A misunderstanding, they thought that she was going to try and put the world into some kind of eternal dream-like state, and rest is history." His sighed. "When that happened, we all receded back to our main base and laid low for over a hundred years until I came across three little brats that annoyed me to no end; Mito, Hashirama, and Madara." He held the bridge of his nose. "If you think for a second that they were able to use their abilities because they were natural prodigies then you deserve to hit with an extremely blunt, ah, I found them while I was roaming in order to see how the humans were faring" he sighed as if he was annoyed, were the three of them that much of a hassle? "They were an odd trio of brats who I decided to show off too, and the end result was me training them before they were forced to create Konoha; before that…the three of them got involved in a rebellion here with me against Home World." He gave the boy a dark look. "Sixty Gem and three Humans taking on a larger than average Gem armada led by Yellow Diamond, and in some miracle we won with a heavy loss; flighty eight of my friends were with what was left of Kushina dying a while back." he explained. "The rest once again is history, so tell me something, what would you do I this very moment?" he questioned.
'Dad's got over six thousand years of experience and knowledge over me, but I…' he sighed. "I know that I can't stop you or talk you down, so I'll-I'll come with you." Naruto was taken back upon hearing this. Why would he want to see it? To see with his own eyes the death and destruction that would soon befall thousands-maybe even a million humans, but it's his choice. The boy would soon learn the power that his father held.
"Careful what you wish for." he bubbled the young man and summoned water wings via activating his Bond with Lapis, she and Peridot had taken to exploring the village. Well more like Akahana Sako was forcefully taking them on a tour, the girls was trying her best to keep their spirits up after what had happened. To silently mourn was their goal. "Alright, here we go." The bubble followed Naruto as he headed into space, needless to say, Nakura began to freak out a bit. "Don't look down—"
"Holy shit!" of course he would look down anyway. "Dad, we're going pretty high!" he exclaimed. "Where are we—"
"Space, we're going into space, we're going in just enough so I can get a clean shot; one shot no pain." He stated while Nakura tried his best to calm down. "You fight shinobi who want to kill you pretty easily, but this is what scares you?" he scoffed. Nakura could feel himself hyperventilating and getting tired. "You can calm down now, we've stopped." The young man opened his eyes. The moon, he was looking at the moon where Kaguya was sealed. Looking down, his eyes widened upon see the bright blue planet that was their planet, he could see the Elemental Nations and continents. Places where they hadn't gone yet or even discovered. "Look to that one right there. "That's where the rebellion too place, it may look small, but believe me when I say that it's so much bigger." He stated. "I'm going to show you all today, believe me when I say that you and your siblings are going to love it." he smirked. "Now then, I'm actually much bigger than the planet, but I don't need to go that big." His body began to crystalize and glow. Nakura covered his eyes until the light died down. His body was now made of flattened Gem shards so that none stuck out and he could retain his humanoid appearance from the waist up. His 'hair' was now dozens of gem shards that went backwards. With three arms on each side, five eyes in total, and his whisker marks in tact; the latter let him know that this was still his dad. The man's mouth was as expected thousands of Gem shards as teeth. Then there was the were his legs, he didn't have any, instead he had an unknown amount of tails/tentacles that no doubt had the ability to cause massive damage. The bubble floated into Naruto's mouth and up into what Nakura could assume was behind his father's top eye.
"Did mom ever see you when you were like this?"
"No, I never needed to show her." the now massive Gem stated. "Now" a single arm was raised. "Bubble the warring parts." It was done. "Open a small hole in comparison to what I need." it was done. "Now to finish it." a small blast began to charge into one of his fingers, until it was done. "Fire." The ball of energy went faster than Nakura could follow. To them it looked like a rather small 'poof' that was barely noticeable by them.
"Is that it? It's over?" the young man questioned in confusion.
"Yes, what expecting so kind of massive explosion that split the sky and sea? I bubbled it, nobody else should've felt it or heard it, besides it was a weak blast." He said. "Well to me it was, I don't know about you."
"That was underwhelming." He stated.
"Too bad, now let's go, there's still much to do." He was back to his normal form in another flash of light. The two were back down on the roof of the hotel that they'd been staying at. What Naruto said was right, the explosion hadn't affected them in the least bit. Un-bubbling his son, he stretched out. "Now that woke me up!" he exclaimed. "Now about what I wanted to show you, go get the others and tell them to meet me at the gates." His oldest son was off. "Now, let's see if I can get in contact." Closing his eyes he began to concentrate, the Bond was established. 'Garnet?'
'Naruto, where are you?' the fusion Gem questioned. 'We can't find you or Lapis.'
'It's kind of complicated so I'll just fill you in on the important parts.' The blonde the proceeded to tell her everything, from Yellow Diamond to his kids, and then his status as a Cluster. 'Also Yellow Diamond is trying to grow a Cluster inside the Earth.' He said finishing up.
'We'll discuss this when you get back, but there's something else isn't there?' she caught on much faster than he wanted, he always forgot about her intuition. 'Everyone is entitled to their secrets so I won't pry, remember that we trust you' Steven trusts you.'
'Thank you, and I promise that I won't come back and affect any of you; thank you for trusting me.' He smiled.
'No problem, just hurry home.'
'I will.' The Bond ended. "Now then." He went to the village gates to see that they were waiting for him. "Alright, we need to get to our destination today; that why I'm bubbling you guys." His kids and Peridot were put into a single bubble.
"It's too cramped in here." Akahana stated.
"Don't worry won't be in there for long." He activated his Level 2 Bond with Lapis. "We'll be flying over the trees, so enhanced flying shouldn't be a problem; just follow me and we should be there in twenty minutes at best." The two flew into the air, the bubble followed. "You guys may want to hold onto each other, you'll be going as fast as us."
"Wait how—" Peridot was cut as they were suddenly pulled with the two flying Gems. Their destination would surprise them more than anything.
Elemental Earth (Couldn't come up with a better name) – Crystal Battlefield
It all covered in floral life with most of it being flowers and one or two trees. But the most noticeable thing were the massive things protruding from the ground with all being various colors. Lapis rubbed her hand against one. "Are these crystals?" she questioned.
"That's right, the result of my rebellion on this planet." Naruto stated.
"Sixty Gems and three Humans taking on a larger than average Gem armada led by Yellow Diamond herself." Nakura said. "I'm going to take a guess and say that these crystals are the aftermath of the war." Naruto nodded 'yes'. "Are these—"
"No, these were forced out of the ground because of the damage, I guess they're simply larger the normal because of the left over chakra. That would explain why they're so big." He said.
"They feel really high quality, like they came out perfectly from a Kintergarden." Peridot stated. "Did you have one on this planet?" she questioned.
"Well, we did have specialized incubators, but we kept them stored after the incident involving Kaguya's sons and we couldn't risk losing any of them; they're the only one of their kind." He explained catching Peridot's attention.
"Only one of their kind, how special are we talking?"
"Special enough that I maybe once or five times had to consume a Gem in order to keep the quiet; these things would've change the way Home World made colonies." He explained. "You'll see." He stepped in front of where the sand on the island started. "Now then." He channeled massive amounts of chakra into his hand slamming them into the ground. From it emerged an old Gem console, it glowed and the screen came up.
"That thing looks…really old." She said.
"Well, replacing for a new one isn't something that I was able to do, and she definitely couldn't have done it." he said before pressing a green button. The result was immediate. The sea began to shift and shake, massive amounts of it began to rise into massive pillars, exposing the sea floor and the miles upon miles of lands that began to uncloak. "Our home base was this massive continent, inside of it sleeps the Gems who fled Home World with me."
"That must've been a lot of Gems." Akahana said. Nearly every mile was mostly made up of what was Gem architecture. "How many Gems are sleeping exactly?"
"Enough to colonize this entire planet if I gave the order, usage of the Kintergarden would be needed of course so at the moment just enough to keep this continent running smoothly." He stated, after twenty minutes it was done and all the water splashed down. Naruto began walking to the massive door. "You guys coming? The Warp Pad is inside." They quickly followed, but just as Naruto was about to open the door, he stopped and turned. "So, I put a single Gem in charge of keeping watch over the city and taking of any anomalies that may come up, now I told her that I'd be back in two years and I've been gone way longer so I'm not sure how she's doing." He said before opening the door. The six of them walked inside, the lights turned on immediately. The inside looked like a normal Gem building, but with a much bigger interior.
"This place is huge." Sako stated.
"Bigger than what I've seen." Peridot stated.
"Naruto, what were you trying to compensate for?" Lapis asked with a smirk.
"Did you just—"
"That human, Temari taught me some human jokes." She stated. "They're kind of—"
"My diamond!" someone talked Naruto to the ground in a hug. A Pearl to be specific, she possesses a thin, tall build, a pointed nose, and pixie haircut. She has pale-gray and skin and flowing hair that went upward in the fashion of her owner. Her outfit consists of a light gray bodysuit with a knee-length, white, sheer skirt. Her gemstone is a pure white and is on her forehead. "I missed you so much!" she exclaimed as Naruto pulled her up so that the two of them could stand up.
"Everyone this is Pearl, say hi." Said Pearl looked to the new people that she was meeting.
"Hi, I'm Lapis and this is Peridot." She nudged the Gem who growled.
"Hello Pearl." She begrudgingly greeted.
"I'm Sako Haruno Uzumaki."
"Akahana Haruno Uzumaki, nice to meet you."
"Nakura Haruno Uzumaki." Pearl was immediately on the young man, inspecting him before noticing his Gem. She lifted up his hand and touched his gem.
"Pearl, the three humans are Half Gems, they're my children." He stated snapping her from her stupor, her eyes went to Sako and then to Naruto.
"She has a Red Diamond." She stated. "Is she—"
"No, she was just born with the gem, it's just random." He said. "Now, I need to contact her."
"Oh! Yes, I'll have it ready ." she was off.
"She hasn't changed at all." He said with a sigh.
"She called you 'her diamond', what was that? Is she defective?" Peridot questioned.
"Pearl was a, um how should I say this without sounding bad, um—just ask her alright; I can't put it in words without sounding like a—"
"Hypocrite." Lapis finished. "You can't say anything without sounding offensive to Pearl, back home." Naruto nodded 'yes'. "How—"
"It's ready!" Pearl exclaimed prompting Naruto to hurry and the others to follow. They went into what seemed to be a communications room, and the screen that was up looked ready to be activated. Naruto took a deep breath before calming himself.
"What you see here, does not and I'll repeat it, neither of you are going to tell the Crystal Gems about this; I'll tell them myself." He looked to the screen and activated it; stepping back he and Pearl stood a good few inches away. The screen shifted into a combined double diamond. Peridot immediately hid behind Akahana, she was the nearest one. The Gem that they were contacting was now on the screen. She had pale skin, delicate features, white grey eyes, and white hair that did go upward but backward a bit. They could only see a little bit of it, but it was enough to know that she was wearing her normal attire. The light grey and white robe, it had smaller shoulder pads than Yellow Diamond. On her forehead was a diamond. Naruto and Pearl saluted.
"Naruto, Pearl, I'm so happy to see you finally."
"It's good to finally see you again as well, my diamond." The two said in unison.
"So formal, there's no need for that, Naruto you know better." She said with a smile. The two relaxed and let their arms down.
"Sorry, force of habit when it comes to you." he stated. "White Diamond…mother." She smiled.
