Wow I did not expect this kind of uproar in this story, but I guess with this gun to my head that I will post this chapter too.
Review Responses:
MeteorElDrago: Yep yep, all ten commandments are revived. Happy you liked the chapter.
KaosoAkuma8: Well…. Yes. I'm happy I was able to do that, but why would anyone want to hate Kuroka? Seriously you have no idea how many times 'Cat Bitch' has been used in reviews.
DaDragon562: Yes, well you'll have to wait for that. Eeeeh….
Eternity456: The support demon…. Oh yeah that thing…. You will be surprised in the next few chapters. Oh fuck yeah Meliodas is pissed he almost went berserk again.
Greer123: Yeah a little. I guess I'm losing some steam, as this, Ghoul and a few other writing projects are hitting dead ends.
Guest: 300… no I put 3000+ as it was confusing to understand on the wiki.
Spark681: Thanks for the support man and I say keep reading.
Misaka Phenex: First off, are you Ravel Phenex's sister? Second, Naruto only ever trained with Newgate to regain his lost power and the only people stronger than him at the moment are his parents (Both currently sealed) Zeldris, Cusack and Chandler, Merlin, and Meliodas. So with him not really training his power did not change much.
OKAY, LETS READ THIS SHIT! I DON'T OWN NARUTO, SEVEN DEADLY SINS OR ANY OTHER ANIME/MANGA REFERENCES I MAY USE!
"Hey" = Speaking
'Hey' = Thinking
'Hey' = Memory
"Hey" = Magic
Chapter 14: Truth and Faith
Skip, next day, Camelot…
"DAMNIT!" Arthur screamed as a giant golem like creature destroyed the barrier Merlin placed on the kingdom.
The golem raised its massive arms again and let out a roar before it was blasted back a good half a mile away, but with its large size it did not do much.
"Good shot Merlin." Meliodas stated before he jumped off the hovering Hawke's Mama. "Take care of the others as I deal with this thing."
Merlin grinned, but not in happiness.
'Who does he think I am, his slave?' Merlin thought before she commanded Hawke's mom to land.
Meliodas dealt with the pesky Golem, and when it tried to blast him with four magic cannon blasts, it was destroyed with a onslaught of four Full Counter's thanks to Lostvayne's special power and Meliodas's magic.
"I won't get tired of seeing that." Naruto stated as he watched Meliodas sheath his sword.
"I double that, nya." Kuroka stated.
"Meliodas could have killed that think with one strike." Edward stated as he replayed the battle in his head. "But it seems he isn't as strong as he was 3000 years ago."
"Yes indeed. But that is probably due to self limitation." Karasuba stated. "He was much stronger at Danafor. But it seems after the false accusations of the Sins killing the former grandmaster he lost a majority of his power."
"And he is now going to retrieve it." Merlin stated. "I suggest you all keep your true skills polished, especially you Naruto with your high destruction Arc attack."
Naruto frowned.
"It isn't that bad." He whined before they all felt Hawke's mom burrow into the ground.
Fairy King Forest…
Ban was putting his jacket back on, ignoring what Gerheade's words.
"Nothing to thank me for. I didn't do it for you anyway." Ban shrugged.
A roar echoed through the forest and all the fairies, Ban, and Jericho heard it and turned to see a long slender demon Golem walking towards the forest.
All the fairies were in a frenzy of fear as the Golem made its way to the recovering Fairy Tree, its lanky arms whipping behind it to attack the tree before it got blasted.
"Look, it's the flower that grows on the Fairy Tree." One of the fairies shouted and everyone saw a large sunflower open and pointing at the golem who recovered. "HARLEQUIN!"
"Spirit Spear Chastiefol, Fourth Configuration: Sunflower."
King charged a second blast and fired.
The golem fired its own magic blast and they collided with King's attack being broken through and the golem's attack aiming for the tree.
"Spirit Sword Durandal…"
Xenovia, in her adult form, appeared before King, in front of the blast.
"Sixth Configuration: Spellbreaker!" (1)
The red magic beam struck Xenovia and pressed against her before ricocheting off into the air.
"LADY XENOVIA!" King shouted as he recalled Chastiefol.
"I'm fine King, don't worry." Xenovia stated as she lowered her shield, a shiny burn on her left shoulder steaming. "But that thing is going to attack again King so we need to keep at it. I'll cover defense while you are offense."
"Alright." King stated as he activated his weapon.
Meanwhile…
"Whether you want me here or not, I'm leaving this forest." Ban told Gerheade.
"Sorry but that won't do." She replied.
"What?" Ban asked aggressively as he stayed on guard.
Gerheade sprouted a new tree branch… and launched it at Elaine's body.
"YOU BITCH!"
Gerheade smirked and then frowned when she turned to see Jericho and a small fairy enter, both gasped as they saw Ban impaled over Elaine, his blood dripping on her body.
"Ban!" Jericho shouted as she ran to the man she loved. "Come on stay with me!"
"Don't worry." Gerheade stated calmly. "He will live on as the new Fountain of Youth, near his beloved."
There was another earthquake that shook the ground.
"What's going on?" Gerheade asked in a panic.
"There is a large monster outside!" the fairy child shouted.
'That means Harlequin is doing battle.' Gerheade though as she rushed out and saw Xenovia and King above the ground keeping eye level with the golem.
"Bumblebee!" King shouted as his weapon returned to spear form and slashed at the Golem, doing little to no damage.
The golem raised its large arm and swiped at King, only for Xenovia to step in and block it, and she cried in pain as she felt the bones in her arms rattle and then she got slammed into the ground, cutting into her body.
"Xenovia!" King shouted to turn and get greeted with a giant hand hitting him.
'I can't lose.' King thought angrily. 'I can't lose this forest a second time.'
An image of Diane appeared in his head.
'I have to get back to Diane, no matter what.' He thought as he held up his hand.
"Fifth Configuration: Increase!"
The golem looked as dozens of small blades swarmed its head before releasing a roar that blew them and King away, injuring him more, causing him to fall again, but was caught by an injured Xenovia.
"Let me help you!" Gerheade shouted as she flew towards the two injured fighters.
"NO STAY BACK!" King shouted.
Xenovia saw the golem whip its arm back, her eyes widened as she realized its target.
Xenovia threw King to Gerheade and blocked the golem's next attack and was slammed into the Fairy Tree, which left her riddled with splinters atop the now destroyed tree as the top half fell off.
"NOOO!" King and Gerheade shouted in unison as they saw Xenovia's body but breathed a sigh of relief as they saw her move, showing she was alive.
"I'm sorry everyone." King said to no one in particular. "You were all right about me. I don't deserve to be…"
King looked behind him, as Gerheade held him up, and saw Ban holding Elaine's body despite not being in the best of shape himself.
The fairies started to move, proclaiming that Gerheade take King and run while they distract the golem.
Gerheade started to flee with King struggling, which made his helmet land on his head.
"Don't worry Harlequin." Helbram stated as he looked at his best friend. "You will be alright."
"Hel..bram…"
Said fairy smiled as he looked past his friend.
"Watch carefully, she is about to pull out the heavy assault."
"EVERYONE MOVE!"
All the fairies turned and saw Xenovia slowly rising into the air.
"No need to panic." She stated with a brave face as her blood soaked body twitched. Her body screamed in pain from moving but she forced her body to move.
"Lady Xenovia, you must escape too." The fairies stated as they looked at her, shocked that she smiled.
"Don't forget who I am." She stated as she held up her shield. "I am Xenovia, Student of the Second Fairy King Charlemagne and wielder of the Spirit Sword Durandal."
Magic power poured from her wounds and formed into her shield.
"Durandal, Sixth Configuration: Dawnbreaker!"
The shield formed a two handed long sword, blue and gold like Durandal's base form, but full of immense magic that Xenovia herself did not normally have.
"Now everyone stand back!" Xenovia ordered as her blade glowed and the magic surrounding the metal extended and widened to the point it dwarfed the golem.
"AAAAAAGH!" Xenovia screamed as she swung her weapon and slashed the golem in half, lancing one arm off in the process.
- Durandal Sixth Configuration: Spellbreaker: Forms a shield that absorbs half the power of attacks that hits it and doesn't hurt her, while getting hit anywhere else only gives a fraction of the power and causes damage. -
- Durandal Sixth Configuration: Dawnbreaker: When full of power, the shield becomes a sword brimming with the stored power and Xenovia uses the sword to send the energy back out in a big attack like the energy sword attack.-
Xenovia gasped as her vision blurred and she collapsed, Durandal transforming back into its orange rose form in her hair as she was caught by some fairies.
The fairies cheered as the monster was killed, only to be silenced by the upper half of the golem roaring in pain as its now single arm flailed.
'You got to be kidding me!' King thought as he felt all hope was lost.
"Seems best you flee too." Helbram sighed. "If she could not stop it, what good would you do?"
'What?'
Helbram and King looked around as they watched their fellow fairies continue to attack the golem's bisected body. Their attacks doing nothing but angering it and them all getting hurt.
'Although you fled, and then returned, you could not do anything against something from the demon race." Helbram continued before he smiled at his friend. "So go home to that little giant of yours."
King started to cry before clenching his teeth and holding out his hand, surprising Gerheade and Helbram.
"ONE MORE TIME, PLEASE!" King shouted as his sacred treasure started to glow a very bright yellow gold. "JUST WORK! SACRED TREASURE RELEASE!"
Chastiefol glowed brighter and transformed into Chastiefol True Form.
All the fairies were amazed as his raw power, being the exact same as Xenovia's previous attack, but more concentrated.
The golem felt King's power and roared as it sloppily lunged at the Fairy King, only to get stabbed by the stronger weapon and explode, sending a strong shock wave of magic outward and knocking down many fairies.
Meanwhile, Edinburgh Castle…
"It seems our Albion's, two of them, have been destroyed." Monspeet stated as he let Derieri rest her heads on his legs.
"And the magic was definitely Meliodas's magic at Camelot." Zeldris stated.
"Yes, and the other one we awakened was on their way to destroy the Fairy King Forest." Melascula stated with a smile on her face. "Though it doesn't matter that they were destroyed, as they were nothing more than rusted toys."
No one but Drole noticed Gloxinia's mouth twitch at this.
"GYAHAHAHAHA!" Galand laughed. "This is a good time to hunt that bastard down and kill him for what he did."
"No, we will wait until we harvest souls." Grayroad stated. "We have been sealed for three thousand years so we need to replenish our power."
"I think Galand should go." The smallest of the Commandments voiced. "Striking now would through them off guard. A team of two… no three should go and pick Meliodas off now. That way we cut the head off before the body can be prepared for war."
Galand laughed again and patted the Commandment on their head.
"Good, good, at least someone sees it my way." Galand stated gleefully. "And besides, we can pick up some souls to gain power on the way there."
"Then who do you suggest goes?" Dreyfus asked.
"Well, since Galand is so excited, I'll let him and Melascula go." Zeldris stated before he turned to Estarossa. "And what do you want to do brother?"
Estarossa stayed silent as he lay on the demonic tree branch, ignoring his younger brother.
"Estarossa and I will stay here." The small Commandment stated for the Love Commandment.
"Fine, but this is how we will do things." Zeldris stated, prompting everyone to pay attention.
"Galand and Melascula will hunt down Meliodas, and the rest of us will regain our power through our own means." Zeldris ordered.
"Okay so which way was Meliodas." Galand asked.
He felt something tap against his elbow and he turned to see Gloxinia, who was wrapped up in his Spirit Spear's nature form.
"The one to the South seemingly had its power slammed back into it." Gloxinia stated. "So that one would be Meliodas thanks to his full counter."
"Wait a moment." Dreyfus cut in.
"What is it?" Zeldris asked.
"I must warn you all, there is another group of people with Meliodas that could pose a problem." Dreyfus stated. "They are called the Fallen Nephalem and are on par with Meliodas's group, the Seven Deadly Sins."
Galand gave a hearty laugh.
"Thanks, but I don't need the advice from a demon possessing a weak human." Galand stated before he and Melascula took off.
Dreyfus slumped a bit, before smirking as all the commandments left, and he left and was alongside Zeldris.
This left Estarossa alone with his teammate
Fairy King Forest…
Ban, Jericho, and the rest of the Fairies watched as the Fairy Tree rebuilt itself while Xenovia and King rested.
Ban cut his hand and dripped some of his blood into King's and Xenovia's mouths and their wounds were healed.
"You're awake, Fairy King Harlequin!" many fairies cheered as the rest were happy he and Xenovia were awake.
"Now I can say good bye to this pain in the ass." Ban said happily as he swung his bag over his shoulder.
"Sir Ban…" Gerheade stammered. "I'm happy that you were able to save them and the Fairy Tree. Also I…"
Gerheade was interrupted when Ban grabbed her and hauled her so they were face to face.
"I don't care if you like me or not, nor am I mad at any of the crap you put me through." He growled. "But do what you pulled against Elaine again and I won't hesitate to kill you!"
"I promise to look after her body from now on." Gerheade said in fear.
"You're damn right you will." Ban snapped as he threw Gerheade at King.
"Ban…" Xenovia tried to call out before he started walking away with Jericho going after him.
"Ban wait." King called out, causing the immortal to stop. "Let me ask you again, are you sure you won't return to the Seven Deadly Sins with me?"
Ban did not look at his comrade.
"Tell them and Naruto's crew I say hi." He said before he walked off with Jericho in toe.
Xenovia, King, Gerheade and the fairies watched this in silence, no one making a move to stop them.
Camelot…
Galand stood before the Sins and Nephalem.
"So this is a modern human nest?" Galand asked as he stroked his chin spike. "They sure have changed over the last three thousand years."
He looked over and saw plenty of humans.
"Although it is too cramped." Galand stated as he looked around. "All of them are bunched together."
He raised his pole arm and was about to swing it when Naruto jumped at him and they clashed.
"Oh-hoho…" Galand chortled. "A human with a back bone."
"I could say the same to you, you ugly rusted tin can." Naruto stated with a smirk before disengaging Galand's weapon and kicking the Armored Demon of Truth's chin.
"YOU BASTARD!" Galand screamed as he held his chin in pain.
"Oh Galand, you should be more careful." Melascula stated calmly as she floated nearby. "But don't worry, I'll kill him."
"Cocoon of Darkness."
Naruto was surrounded by a sphere of Darkness alongside Melascula, making Galand laugh as he stood up.
"Now that he is gone, I guess I will pick up where I left off." He chortled and swung his pole arm and to everyone's horror, destroyed a large portion of Camelot making the ground they stood on nothing but dirt.
"There much better." Galand said proudly, happy with what he did. "Now Meliodas, it has been a long time…"
Meliodas did not let Galand finish talking before he slashed the demon's throat, only to be stabbed by the spear head of Galand's weapon.
Galand let out a surprised sound when he saw Meliodas pop and then saw two more, only for them to die when he swung his halberd and dispelled the two clones.
"Found you!" Galand cheered as he turned and saw the real Meliodas shocked his surprise attack did not work. "Now you die!"
"I'm truly disappointed in you captain."
Galand, Meliodas, and everyone else outside of the Cocoon of Darkness were surprised to see someone appear between Galand and Meliodas, wielding a large great axe with ease.
The axe collided with Galand's halberd and the pole arm was slammed into the ground.
"EVERYONE EVACUATE THE AREA NOW!" Meliodas ordered. "Escanor is going to fight!"
Merlin teleported away everyone but herself, Escanor and the Nephalem.
"That's rude." Galand stated. "You need to wait your turn for me to kill you. Do you have a death wish or are you stupid enough to throw your life and soul away to me, Galand the Truth."
"I am Lord Escanor," Escanor stated calmly. "And I am the man who stands above all clans and…"Escanor's clothes were tearing and soon revealed his muscled torso. " I am the Lion's Sin of Pride of the Seven Deadly Sins."
Galand laughed as he pulled his weapon from the ground.
"You are funny for a human." He declared. "But we demons are the top race. Look at your friend. He was captured by my partner's Cocoon and now his soul will be devoured by her."
Said cocoon burst open and revealed Melascula's twitching body under Naruto's foot.
Merlin could see hints of Darkness on his forehead before it vanished.
'So this is my replacement as the Commandment of Faith.' Naruto thought as he stabbed Melascula, only for her to launch her Darkness at him, making him jump away and her Darkness healed her wounded stomach.
'Tricky bitch this one.' Naruto thought as he tapped Ankhseram against his shoulder.
"Impossible." Melascula stated as she looked at Naruto angrily.
"I'm impressed he didn't die." Galand stated truthfully.
"He is my teacher, so I would expect nothing less." Escanor stated as he slashed Galand in half. "But that doesn't mean I am the weaker of the two."
Galand pulled himself together and regrouped with Melascula.
"Wait a minute, what is your name?" Galand asked Naruto.
"The name's Naruto. I am the leader of the Fallen Nephalem." Naruto stated.
"I see, so you are the group hanging out with Meliodas that demon told us about." Galand stated as he looked over Karasuba, Edward, and Kuroka. "Don't seem like much."
"But looks can be deceiving." Melascula stated. "However, the only ones I can sense that truly pose a threat are the ones in front of us and the Nephalem."
"Then let's kill the weaklings now." Galand stated.
"You dare call Merlin weak." Escanor stated.
"What's it to you?" Galand asked as he watched Escanor walk over with Rhitta slung over his shoulder.
Escanor said nothing as he squared off with Galand.
"Hey, let's play a game to decide who is stronger." Galand asked sneakily.
"What would that be?" Escanor asked, not amused.
"The Galand Punching Game. We take turns hitting the other, and the first to drop dies." Galand proposed.
"Alright, I take you up on that challenge."
Naruto, who was watching this play out like everyone else.
'Be careful Escanor.' Naruto thought. 'Once promised, you can't back out from the Commandment of Truth.'
"Nice, now let me do something before we start this game of ours." Galand chuckled. "I was saving this for Meliodas if he caused trouble, but I guess you are worth too."
Melascula floated away a bit before she felt something ensnare her.
'Darkness?' She thought as a large hand of said substance grabbed her.
"Did you think I would forget you or allow you to run?" Naruto asked as his right hand was covered in Darkness extending to hold her. "You were wrong to assume that, successor of mine."
Melascula was confused before she was slammed into the ground and held tightly under Naruto's power.
Galand, not paying attention to his partner, started shaking.
"Critical Over!"
Galand's body was enveloped in light, and when it vanished his body had gotten bulkier and had spikes.
"NOW TAKE THIS!" Galand cried as he pulled his arm back to punch Escanor…
Only to feel intense fear creep over him as an image of Escanor grew and dwarfed him, holding Rhitta over his head with the sun behind it.
The Nephalem chuckled as they saw the Demon of Truth immediately get turned to stone as he attempted to flee.
"Galand, you fool." Melascula stated in her captivity.
"I don't understand, but it seems his power backfired on him Master." Escanor stated as he looked at Naruto.
"As is the truth about his Commandment." Naruto replied, chuckling at his joke. "Now who and how unsealed the Commandments?"
Melascula crammed her neck to look at the man.
'This one is able to use Darkness and seems to have knowledge about us.' Melascula thought as she looked at Naruto. 'Who is he? It doesn't matter. With what that Dreyfus guy said, he used the black cat in disguise as a silver haired woman to get the blood.'
Melascula looked around and saw Kuroka, in disguise, and then she looked at Naruto.
"I don't know, but all I can say is that the cat wanted something badly."
Naruto's eyes widened and was about to kill Melascula, but she was sucked into and sealed in a scientific vial held by Merlin.
Naruto stood still as he recalled his Darkness.
'Kuroka…' Naruto thought as he looked at his friend.
Intense fear and paranoia started to fill Naruto's mind as he thought about it.
The only one who knew his blood was able to unlock the Coffin of Eternal Darkness was her.
Chapter 14, DONE!
Okay, okay, stop shooting me. I get it, the fight between the Commandments and Naruto/Escanor was weak.
And that Xenovia could have kill steal King's victory but King is cool so he deserves his power up.
Anyway, it was actually very fun to write this chapter and I hope you enjoyed it, even if you hated it.
