A/N: They have revealed Naruto's father is indeed the 4th Hokage, and his mother's last name is Uzumaki... but his name is Minato, not Arashi, but I'm keeping Arashi but I might change Naruto's mother's name to her canon name (Kushina) with someone pointing out that her name was Momoko when Arashi mentioned her.
Also... it's been a month... and no one's entered the fan art contest... so please if you can draw please enter, you'll probably win...
Anyways enjoy the next chapter.
Chapter 45: A Cruel Battle
With the Allies fight, the fighting continued…
Franky had just taken out several opponents his Strong Right.
"Super!" he shouted.
Not too far away Ponygon rammed a few enemies…
"Groovy!" shouted Kafk.
The two were near each other then looked at each other…
"I like your moves!" said Kafk.
"I like your style!" said Franky.
That's when a member of Buggy's crew flew past them from a punch delivered by Sakura.
"Now's not the time for talking! Talk later!" she yelled at them.
Now both were smart men… and they knew not to mess with a preteen with super strength.
"Okay…" they said in unison.
Meanwhile with Sherry, she faced her nemesis… Zofis, the one that turned Koko's kind heart cold…
"Zofis I'm going to burn you book right now!" said Sherry as Brago's book began to glow brightly.
"Like you can beat me…" said Zofis.
"You're nothing but a coward…" said Brago.
"What do you mean?" said Zofis.
"When I first found Sherry you sensed me… and was scared you knew I was there… and even when you went to kill that pathetic book keeper, you knew I was there as well…" said Brago.
"That's a lie!" said Zofis.
"Not to mention that you hide behind something, your mamodo army first and now the Black Sun…you're nothing but a Coward…" said Brago.
"Perhaps you are right…" said Zofis, "Even if the Black Sun falls I have something set up…"
"What?" said Sherry.
"That's none of your geniuses!" said Zofis.
"Radom!"
"Reis!" read Sherry
Zofis shot a ball from his hand while Brago did the same, the two spells collided and blew up.
"I have to save her…" thought Sherry.
Zofis began to laugh, "You know I would have never thought you aid the Sailor Senshi."
"The Sailor Senshi have nothing to with this fight!" said Sherry.
"Sure say that…" said Zofis.
"Ion Gravirei!" read Sherry.
The force of gravity became much stronger… and began to crush both Zofis and Koko… that's when it stopped.
"Sherry!" said Brago.
"Don't aim for Koko!" said Sherry.
"Now!" said Zofis.
"Rond Radom!"
Zofis sent out a whip towards the two that exploded on contact.
"Well, well Sherry…" said Koko walking up to the tow that laid unconscious on the ground.
Sherry opened her eyes and kicked the book out Koko's arms it fell to the ground far away. Sherry then grabbed Koko.
"You were playing possum… weren't you?" said Koko.
"Of course I was!" said Sherry as Brago got up, "Now Zofis!"
Zofis began to laugh evilly.
"What's going on?" asked Sherry.
"Are you willing to take a chance?" said Zofis, "When you burn my book... Koko will go insane with all the guilt from she did."
Sherry didn't know why but she felt like the Sailor Senshi could help her… "Are you sure there's no one to help her?"
"You know about Neo Sailor Moon don't you?" said Zofis.
"I know very little… only that the Black Sun took control of her." said Sherry.
Zofis growled knowing that Koko would seek out Ash for help… after all Black Lady did thing that would over shadow anything that Koko did.
"I am willing to take that chance!" said Sherry, "Gigano Reis!"
The spell hit the book and began to burn... Koko immediately passed out, Sherry placed her friend on the ground.
"You win… and I hope that Koko will be able to get help from Neo Sailor Moon… after all nearly destroying her world is bigger than any thing I made Koko do…" said Zofis who then disappeared… back the mamodo world.
Sherry knelled to the ground to see if Koko was okay.
"Koko?" she said.
Koko began to wake up… "Sherry?" she said.
"I'm right here…" said Sherry.
Koko began to cry… and then hugged her best friend… "I'm so sorry!" she cried.
"I know… I know…" said Sherry.
Brago smirked… knowing that Sherry's quest to defeat Zofis was over, that she might get her head more into the game when it came to finding more mamodos.
Meanwhile in the master of the Sun's chambers...
"No wonder Zatch wants to end this battle…" said Neo Sailor Moon, "Forcing friends to fight each other like that."
"It's a noble cause… but how long will it last?" asked the Master of the Sun.
Neo Sailor Moon glared at that Master of the Sun.
Sailor Uranus and Sporty looked at each other… knowing that the two would fight.
"So why are fighting?" asked Sporty.
"Someone had to fight you…" said Sailor Uranus.
"Let's get started then!" said Sporty taking out a Volley Ball, tossing it to the masked senshi… who knocked it back towards her which then exploded.
"Why you!" yelled Sporty who threw a baseball towards Sailor Uranus who caught it and threw them back which exploded.
"Not again!" yelled Sporty.
Sailor Uranus sighed… she took out her book and began to read it.
"Take me seriously!" yelled Sporty who began to throw various balls at Sailor Uranus however she caught them all and sent them back… with out missing a moment of perverted goodness from her book.
Sport who was covered in soot took out a syringe and stared at it.
"If I use it then I'll beat her… but the cost… fine then… if I'm going down then I'm taking her with me!" thought Sporty.
"Things are going to be different right now!" yelled Sporty.
Sailor Uranus looked up form her book and watched as Sporty injected herself with the syringe.
"Time for my sacrifice play!" said Sporty.
Sailor Uranus eyes were wide, "Her Chakra… it's increasing… At this rate she'll…" she thought, "What are you doing!" yelled Sailor Uranus.
"This is my special Max Strength Serum! With this I get many times stronger!" said Sporty.
"But for a price…" said Sailor Uranus.
"I should have known you could sense the draw backs!" said Sporty.
She ran quickly to Sailor Uranus who managed to jump out of the way, Sporty punched the wall, which then broke to pieces.
"And your next!" said Sporty.
Sailor Uranus dodged at much as she could…
"That serum you used…" said Sailor Uranus.
"I created it…" said Sporty, "So don't get any ideas that I got it from Sound…"
"I see…" said Sailor Uranus.
Sporty stopped punching and began to breath heavily…
"This is my last shot!" she thought then a picture appeared her in her head… that of Horror, "Horror… I wish I could have been like you… even if it was your luck that did you in you were still bold enough to be in tune with your feelings."
"So the side effects are kicking in… are they?" said Sailor Uranus.
"So what! It ends here!" yelled Sporty.
She ran t6awords Sailor Uranus about to strike… that is until she collapsed.
"So this is it… I guess…" said Sporty.
"Want me to lay you on your back?" asked Sailor Uranus.
"Thank you…" said Sporty weakly.
Sailor Uranus laid Sporty on back.
"Maybe I shouldn't have used the serum after all…" said Sporty, "Dying like this… increasing my strength for a price… I really thought I could beat you too… I guess I was also holding back."
"You are aware that many ninjas do that… right?" asked Kakashi.
"I know…" said Sporty as she began to fade away… "I wish it didn't have to be this way…"
"What do you mean?" asked Sailor Uranus.
"I just wish… that if Master of the Sun… wasn't so strict… if he wasn't then perhaps some of can be free…"
"What do you mean?" asked Sailor Uranus.
"I wanted more out of life other than being a servant of then being some servant to the Master of the Sun... I admire Horror… he got a shot at being free... even if he did die… I wish I got that chance… even for a moment like he did… please I know that some of us are already dead… please save at least one of my siblings… please…" said Sporty, "This way one of us can live on for the rest of us… please make sure one of us lives!"
"I can't make a promise…" said Sailor Uranus.
"I know… just please… try…" said Sporty who faded away.
"I will try…" said Sailor Uranus who had the strangest feeling like she didn't even need to do anything.
Meanwhile in the chambers Master of the Sun just sighed.
"I can't believe how many of my servants are going to your side… it's a good things she dead…" said the Master of the Sun.
"Sporty… I never knew…" whispered Neo Sailor Moon.
Meanwhile with Sailor Mercury, Zatch, Zeno and Dufort.
"So looks like the time has come!" said Zeno, "Dufort!"
"Right! Zaker!" read Dufort.
"Zaker!" read Sailor Mercury.
The two electric spells collided, causing an explosion.
"I can't see anything!" said Zatch.
"Zakeruga!" read Dufort thought the dust.
"Okay… ready? Zakeruga!" read Sailor Mercury.
Zatch shot the concentrated lighting from his mouth… but that did nothing… as Zeno's Zakeruga was much larger.
"No way!" said Sailor Mercury.
She grabbed Zatch and ran out of the way… they escaped the spell but just barely.
"I'm much stronger than Zatch…" said Zeno, "That's something you have to understand!"
"Zeno… why do you hate me so much?" asked Zatch who was on the verge of crying, "We're brothers aren't we?"
"So what…" said Zeno, "And we both know that brother can hate each other… just look at Sasuke and his brother… they hate each other…"
Zatch glared at his brother.
"Kiyo… you think you can do it?" asked Zatch.
"It's a long shot but I think I can do it…" said Sailor Mercury.
"Okay… do it Kiyo…" said Zatch.
"Right! Boa Zakeruga!" read Sailor Mercury.
Zatch passed out as a giant golden dragon made out of electricity came out of his mouth, the dragon aimed itself towards Zeno and Dufort… as it was about to strike both Zeno and Dufort jumped out of the way at the right second.
"What just happened?" said Zatch as he regained conciseness.
Sailor Mercury then fell to her knees.
"Kiyo!" said Zatch.
"I'm fine… I just need to rest…" said Sailor Mercury.
"That's a shame!" said Zeno.
"Zaker!" read Dufort.
The lighting spell came from his hand and hit the two.
"Now one more time!" said Zeno.
"Right! Zakeruga!" read Dufort.
The large concentrated blast of lighting hit the two sending them into a wall, fortunately Zatch's book remained unscathed.
"You two are pathetic…" said Zeno walking up to Zatch and Sailor Mercury.
"What are you going to do?" said Zatch.
"Make you suffer even more…" said Zeno who then began to walk away, "I'll be back."
He walked over to Dufort and covered him in his cloak and the two disappeared.
Zatch began to cry.
"I can't believe I lost…" he cried.
"Zatch…" said Sailor Mercury, "We're going to meet them again… I know it… and when we do… we will be the one that wins…"
"But…" said Zatch.
"Next time we meet! We will win!" said Sailor Mercury.
Zatch looked at the determination on Sailor Mercury's face.
"Okay! We will!" said Zatch.
"Why does it fell that Zeno withheld information?" thought Sailor Mercury.
Meanwhile in the Master's Chamber.
"Poor, poor Zatch!" laughed the Master of the Sun.
"You shouldn't make fun of him!" yelled Neo Sailor Moon.
"I know I shouldn't… I know more about him that he does… I won't tell you what I know… after all we never discussed his past in front of Black Lady…" said the Master of the Sun.
Neo Sailor Moon just glared at the Master of the Sun.
Meanwhile with Sailor Ceres and Cat the two looked at each other, "Aren't we going to fight or not?"
"Okay then…" said Sailor Ceres.
