Delayed by college orientation, then by plane cancellations...then by being tired after finding a way back after said plane cancellations, but in exchange for this, the last update featured in Harry Potter Reads the Multiverse featured Devil Luna. Yes, the crazy demon you all LOL at had her storyline with Ron, hinted at at her debute, presented in full chapter format, a complete omake that requires no reading of the rest of the story to truly understand. Go to the last chapter of Harry Potter reads the Multiverse NOW!

Oh, and thank you for all the pick me up. Writing shall now resume, with a chapter a little short, but packed with some humor to get me back on track

Thunderstorms suck, by the way

The Absolution

A metallic being, slim with a visor that looked slightly angry looking, was staring out into space through a window in a captain's pit, as the doors behind him opened up, as some little robot fell to the ground, the round body embedded with arrows.

"So, your the stowaway?" the robot commented as he turned around, to spy Beowulf, bow aimed right at him

"Mind leaving the CLYDE'S be though?"

"This isn't about the fate of some mass produced robot" Beowulf commented "The fate of many worlds hangs in the balance, and you will give me the information that I need to save it"

"...So you break into the Absolution? Cause massive property damage? What gives a self appointed hero the right to do that?"

"I don't have time to dress up with a cape and visible briefs." the bow was fired, striking the chassis of the robot and bounced off.

"I am the latest T.O.M model, version 5. I was designed to deal with darker, edgier worlds, and anti heroes like you. I infiltrated the Carnival Corpse, escaped The Ruin and aided in the battle of Kana Village. You don't scare me"

The two lunged at each other

A possibly epic fight aside...well I had to continue that sub plot somewhere

"...If this is karma for accidentally peeping on your wife...well I don't think I deserve it." Jiraiya whimpered as he was presented with the paperwork the Daimyo would normally have to do, having been made temporary Daiymo.

Perhaps that was why he was so irritable, it was five times more than what poor Hiruzen had to work on

"No it isn't..." the Hokage began

"...Because she was old and leathery..."

"...Continue saying things about my dear departed wife and you'll have my paper work too"

Jiraiya shut up faster than a Akamichi would eat at a all you can eat buffet after said Akamichi completed a S class mission.

"...Good, now we have a month to keep the peace, and get the Chunnin Exams up and running. The hotels have to be made to listen, the roads need to be cleaned up, and any rebels have to be silenced so they don't set off a paper bomb in the dispensers"

"...We are going to need security with eyes in the back of their heads..." Jiriaya sighed "Of course, the one time I want to deal with Hyuga men they are all dead"

He loved to deal with Hyuuga woman...with their luscious bodies...

"We will have to make due without them" Saratobi commented "The Aburame's bugs may be our best security option, though that means we are going to have to skimp on cockroach removal..."

"...Hopefully Shibi is understanding" Jiraiya admitted

Konoha, a few days later, a training field

One of the biggest sports in Japan is in fact Baseball.

So thus, the fact that Naruto was currently using shadowclones to play himself in a baseball game is not the author showing that he is a baseball fanboy (Which he is not). It is actually a researched fact by the author

And while normally authors would suggest that Naruto fills his time off missions with ramen binges, training and quite often steamy sex with Hinata, Sakura, Femchia's or whoever the pairing is: two things

One, the fact that of those three specifically names, only Hinata is currently sexually active, and the fact that Naruto does not really enjoy sex.

And two, as the old saying goes 'All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy'

Er...perhaps the author could have thought up a better way to say that, but hey, writers make Naruto into a Shining esc nut all the time and people seem to like it. Whatever the reason is, ninja need to do some non ninja activities to keep from going crazy.

Danzo trims Bonsai, Kakashi reads Porn, Shikamau plays Shogi...its all retaliative really.

"STRIKE THREE! YOUR OUT!" Naruto Prime, who was on the pitcher's mound, told one of his shadow clones who he just struck out at bat.

"NO I'M NOT!"

"Yes you are" Naruto told him

"YOU CAN'T MAKE ME..." Naruto snapped his fingers as said clone went poof

"...Yes I can" Naruto prime commented as another one of his clones came up to bat. Naruto, holding the ball in his hands, smirked.

"Here's something I'd like to call...the Uchiha curve ball!"

He threw the ball, the clone swung, and it hit the umpire Naruto's glove

"STRIKE ONE!"

"Now, what about the Akamichi Fast Ball"

He threw

The clone swung

The ball struck glove

"STRIKE TWO!"

"Now, for the Uzumaki swirl!" he threw as the clone looked determined

SWAK

And the ball went flying

"OH YEAH! HOME RUN!" The clone tossed the bat as he ran around the pitch.

He and his fully loaded team

"...Does it really count as a loss if I got beat by myself" Naruto Prime commented as the ball landed out of bounds...

Hitting a red haired male with a gourd on his back and a bunch of creepy tattoos who looked like he could use some sleep right in the head.

"Oh...sorry about that" Naruto Prime commented as the creepy kid gave him a look

"...Die"

Omake 1

PROMO for next story in Harry Potter Reads the Multiverse (featuring Naruto in the backstory and likely as a major character in later arcs!)

Ninjas vs S.H.I.E.L.D

"STAND DOWN IN THE NAME OF S.H.I.E.L.D!"

A hundred odd armored men with guns were firing at a Shippuden aged Naruto, who dodged the bullets with Jiraiya trained speeds.

He appeared behind a armored, man sized robot, drawing two kunai as he sliced the robot's neck. It collapsed, as a few hundred more robots flew at him.

"The Darklands belong to the States!"

"Yeah, I don't think so" Naruto stared down the robots as he knicked his fingers.

"SUMMONING JUTSU!" Gamabunta formed from a giant poof of smoke as he flew into the air and sliced down all the robots that swarmed at his summoner, the impact of the giant toad landing knocking all the S.H.I.E.L.D agents to the ground.

Gamabunta looked ready to strike them too, before a shaded figure smashed into Gamabunta with a shield, knocking the giant toad to the ground as a huge plume of smoke rose up.

Naruto looked through the smoke to see the man who had taken down the toad chief.

He was in better shape than any ninja, a shield greater than any ninja tool on his arms. He was dressed in red, white and blue.

"Stand down son. I don't enjoy killing kids" the figure stated as Naruto formed a shadow clone.

"...Can't say I plan to die today, Captain" Naruto commented as he began forming a blue spiraling sphere.

"RASENGAN!"

Naruto charged at the armored suited hero, who used his shield to block it.

And so Rasengan and Shield collided

Omake 2

Non Canon

Why being a Fanfiction Writer is difficult

"...Hulk WILL SMASH YOU ALL IF YOU WILL NOT SHUT UP!" Hulk was still the secretary at Crossoverpariinglover studios as a huge hodgepodge of famous and not so famous characters silenced themselves.

"...We want to see the president" a Fusionfall inspired Dexter said in his russian accent "We've heard rumors about one of the currently projects ending soon, so we know that a new project is necessary..."

"You had your chance on a minor project, while I haven't even gotten to do more than make cameos!" Ichigo yelled at the shorter red head

"...The project, while meant to be short, was hampered by lack of creative want and time. As a full story, Fusionfall by this studios could be excellent: the writer is a huge CN fan. Admitably, he'd have to actually watch Megas XLR and Samurai Jack a bit first to get their feels better..."

"The author needs something new and awesome to get out of his anime writer flunk..." a walking cat with a gold coin on his forehead commented in a Brooklyn Accent "Me's a thinking a Pokemon story...Pokemon vs Yu-GI-OH"

"...We'll win Meowth, hands down" a hot blond female in a blue and pink witch commented

"No we'll win Dark Magician Girl!"

"Your series is too long!"

"Yours is fractioned! Where would the writer even put it!? Can you use Synchro's in GX fandom..."

"I've so had it reserved since Vampiress!" Ichigo yelled at all of them, ending the WB war

"Your anime got cancelled and the big guy upstairs lost interest during the Fullbring arc, so a new guy needs to star, like me...BLACK*STAR!" said blue haired Naruto expy exclaimed

"...The writer does his best when writing Harem stories: and how many girls can you be paired up with? Maka would never be in a harem story and still be her, he dislikes Patti and Liz, whatever Pot is the girl is too young..." Percy Jackson commented "While there are ideas he has for me that would be cool, harem or not"

"YOU HAD TWO STORIES! GIVE THE OTHER FANDOMS A CHANCE YOU YANKEE!" Ichigo pointed his new sword at Percy, who was about to draw Riptide

"HULK SAYS SHUT UP!" Hulk smashed his hands together and knocked out Dexter, Ichigo, Mewoth, the Dark Magician Girl, Black* Star and Percy Jackson before muttering "...Hulk should have become a doctor like mother wanted"
