With a swing of his flaming sword, the young Genryusai unleashed a torrent of blue fire at his enemy, only Sutōkā easily defended himself from the attack, thanks to the invisible force that protected him, rapidly slicing through the flames like a fan.
"Damn!" The former Soul Reaper cursed.
Sutō charged at Yamamoto with blinding speed and the invisible force unleashed another swarm of slashes, only difference was now they were being used offensively instead of defensively. The former Captain could barely defend against the relentless attacks befalling him as he blocked the slashed with his blade.
Some managed to penetrate his guard and he got cut in a few places. Finally, Genryusai used Flash Step to get away from Sutōkā and reappeared behind him, about to take his head off with one stroke of his blade. However, Ryukki's mysterious force protected him from the attack and Gen was knocked away.
The boy spun around and used his left thumb to slightly unsheathe his katana by a mere inch.
"BUSTER SLASH!"
Young Yamamoto could hardly take the slash attack. He managed to block with his Zanpakuto, but the sheer force of the slash was so powerful that the impact taken by his Soul Cutting Sword was felt throughout his entire body.
'Shit! That attack is rattling my bones!' Genryusai thought.
"FLURRY SLASH!"
Sutōkā then unleashed another barrage of light speed slashed that began to shred through Yamamoto's body. He felt every slice, every cut. It was like being in a blender and he couldn't use Flash Step to get away this time because he was too close.
Sutō smirked as he thought victory was his, but felt an intense amount of heat coming from behind him. He turned his head slightly and saw the Human Igneel right behind him with a fist of blue fire.
"Get away from him! FIRE DRAGON KING'S DESTRUCTION FIST!"
The Dragon in Human form thrusted his fist at Sutōkā with all his might, unleashing an enormous blast of blue fire from the limb. However, this ultimate attack had little effect as Sutōkā's invisible force was rapidly slicing through the fire blast at an insane rate of speed.
'Damnit! How is he doing this?! We can't even touch him!' Igneel wondered.
As the two were dealing with Ryukki, Ghost managed to sneak up behind Igneel and prepared her Jet Blades. The hovered around her as he aimed them at her prey, and with a snap of her fingers, they zoomed towards the Dragon.
"POLTERGEIST!"
Igneel managed to notice the sneak attack, however he was pretty much unable to move because he was cornered between them and Sutō's invisible force, that and the fact that Gen will be torn to bits if stops his Destruction Fist spell since it's drawing most of the invisible force's attention away from the former Soul Reaper.
He'll have to take this attack head on, so Igneel hardened the skin of his back into Dragon scales, but the Het Blades aren't made of everyday metal, so they will penetrate his defenses, but at least he could reduce the damage.
That is, if not for someone diving down from the sky with lightning spewing out from his right hand.
"CHIDORI SENBON!"
The figure swung his hand and multiple needles made of electricity rained down, knocking the Jet Blades out of the air and disabling them by overloading their energy sources with the needles' electric currents.
"What the hell?" Igneel said.
The figure landed behind the Dragon King and relieved to be Sasuke.
"Not you again!" Ghost grunted.
"You really thought I'd let you escape with that scroll? You've got another thing coming if you believe that." Sasuke told the lizard, drawing his katana.
Then all of a sudden, the earth beneath Sutōkā crumbled apart and out of it came both Naruto and Boruto, along with some of their Shadow Clones. The originals slammed their feet into Sutōkā's jaw and launched him off the ground. Genryusai was now safe to use Flash Step to get away, so he did.
More clones shot out of the ground and one by one, kicked Sutōkā higher into the air. Then the originals suddenly appeared just a little bit higher above Ryukki and axe kicked the teen down to the earth.
"UZUMAKI DOUBLE BARRAGE!"
The boy crashed into the ground and got embedded into the earth, where he coughed up blood. Ghost was absolutely astonished from what happened to Sutō after that sneak attack.
"Nevozmozhno! Impossible! No one can penetrate Sutōkā absolute defense! I don't believe it!" She exclaimed.
Naruto and his son both landed on the ground beside the Swordsmen. Naruto then pointed his finger up, making Ghost look in that direction. She saw a Naruto clone with a Rasengan in hand, diving straight for her.
"BELIEVE IT!" The clone said, crashing into the reptilian.
That would have worked, if Ghost hadn't phased right through the attack. She was seen standing in a crater, completely unharmed with her arms crossed. Naruto was completely stunned by the fact that his best attack didn't work.
"Du- HUH?!"
"She can phase through attacks, Naruto. Hitting her won't be easy." Sasuke warned his friend.
Sutōkā managed to pry himself free and glared at Boruto. The boy was unaware that Ryukki had freed himself and he groped his sword sheath with his left hand. Naruto senses the killer intent coming from Sutōkā and pushed his son out of the way.
"Boruto, look out!"
"CROSS SLASH!"
The teen sliced an X into Naruto's chest, spraying blood all over from the wound.
"Dad, no!" Boruto cried.
However, Naruto vanished in a cloud of smoke a second later. It was just a Shadow Clone.
"What in the hell? How did he-"
"Now!"
Sutō turned around to his back and saw Naruto, Hibiki and Naoto closing in on the Swordsmen.
"I'll break his guard!" Said Hibiki, drawing his blades.
He zoomed towards Sutōkā and vanished in a burst of speed.
"Shadow Dance: HIDDEN PHOENIX!"
Kohaku reappeared on the other side of the boy and his delayed attack came into effect. Multiple slashes struck Sutōkā at such a speed that his absolute defense could barely keep up. At least three slashes manage to penetrate and cut his arms.
'No way! This guy's faster than my guard?!' Ryukki mentally exclaimed.
"Lord Seventh, his guard can't protect him from everything! Try using an attack faster than anything he has!" Hibiki recommended.
"OK!"
Naruto summoned two clones and the both began to gather Chakra in his right hand, which they then infused with wind and the constant spiraling of the Rasengan amplified the speed of the wind immensely, transforming the sphere into a giant energy shuriken.
"Wind Style! RASENSHURIKEN!"
He tossed the shuriken at Sutōkā and it collided, generating a huge twister-like explosion around the boy.
"SUTŌ!" Ghost cried.
Ryukki was trapped inside the windstorm, deflecting multiple attacks at once. The wind of the Rasenshuriken travels a speeds so intense that it is capable of eviscerating someone on the cellular level. Sutōkā's invisible force was protecting him but just barely, for the high speed winds were digging into his flesh, ripping his cells to shreds.
'Incredible. This guy's able to defend against my Rasenshuriken.' Naruto thought in astonishment.
Suddenly, Ryukki began to sink into the earth below and he disappeared completely. He then reappeared along side Ghost some distance away, rising out of the ground like a spirit.
"Thank you." He thanked his partner.
Ghost nodded in response. Sutōkā then turned to the Hokage.
"That's some way to say "hello" to a friend, Lord Seventh." He chuckled.
"What's going on, Sutōkā? Sasuke told me that your friend broke into the Leaf Village and stole something important. Is that true?" Naruto questioned in a serious tone.
"We were just following orders." Ryukki replied.
"Always the same excuse, brat." Said Igneel, approaching Naruto with Genryusai.
"Who are you guys?" The Hokage asked.
Igneel was about to speak until Sasuke answered first them.
"They're to two love birds who said they would provide me with information but instead left me with their bill. An EXPENSIVE bill."
"Oh, get over it, Uchiha. We've got bigger problems than a dinner bill." Gen said.
"No, I will not get over it! You cost me a pretty penny! Who pays a hundred Ryo for a side salad that wasn't even that good?!"
"Should we just go while they're distracted?" Sutōkā suggested.
"No, not yet. This is funny." Ghost giggled.
Eventually, they stopped arguing and poured their attention back to the thieves.
"What do you want with that scroll, Sutōkā?" Naruto questioned.
"I can't answer that. It's too complicated for you to understand." Sutōkā replied.
"Try me"
Ryukki sighed. He turned on his wrist communicator and connected to his superior.
"This is Gandalf. Whatcha need, Frodo?"
'Gandalf..?' Naoto and Hibiki thought.
"Ok, Boss. You gotta stop with the code names." Sutō urges his superior.
"Sorry. It's just, how do you compete with 'Control'?"
Everyone sweat dropped.
"I'm sorry, he's kinda dumb." The teen apologized.
"Hey!"
"Boss, I'm calling because we got caught by Naruto Uzumaki and he want to know why we need the Crimson Scroll." Sutōkā explained.
'Crimson Scroll? Why's it called that?' Sasuke wondered.
"Oh boy... Well, we're in a pickle. Get the guy on the phone, I wanna talk to him."
"He wants to speak to you, Lord Uzumaki." Ryukki said.
Naruto started walking, but Boruto stopped him by grabbing his arm.
"Dad, wait. They could be trying to trick you." He warned his father.
Naruto crouched down to his son's hight.
"Don't worry, buddy. I'll be ok." He assured.
The Hokage got up and walked towards the thieves, and as he approached, Igneel yelled at the Ninja.
"Don't trust a damn word they say, Uzumaki!"
Naruto reached them and Sutōkā handed Naruto the contraption. He had never seen a gadget like this before. I mean, now a days, the Hidden Leaf Village has become a more advanced community with TVs, phones, computers, but he had never seen this before. It was like something out of a sci-fi movie.
"Just press the red button." Ghost pointed out.
So he did.
"Uh... Hello?"
"Greetings, Earthling." Replied a distorted voice.
Naruto flinched at the voice and held his breath. What was that? Was it even Human? Then...
"AAAHAHAHAHA! Gotcha! I just used a voice changer built into the comm. I got ya good!"
Yep...
Naruto stared at Sutōkā with a face that said, "are you fucking kidding me?".
"I told you that he was an idiot."
"Ahh, sorry. Back to business. Hello, Lord Hokage. I'm Ghost and Sutōkā's boss. You can call me... The Purple Man! I've got it! That's a good code name, right?"
"BOSS!" Ghost and Sutō both yelled.
"Ok, no more joking. Promise." The Purple Man replied.
Naruto couldn't believe how dumb this guy was. People called HIM an idiot.
"Lord Uzumaki. I want you to know I am truly sorry for any trouble my agents have caused. We never meant to harm the people of your village." The voice spoke.
"LIES!" Igneel and Genryusai shouted.
Naruto ignored them and continued his conversation.
"I can tell from your voice that your apology is sincere, but a mere "I'm sorry" will not bring back the lives that Natalia took." Naruto replied.
"Wait, what?" Sutōkā questioned.
He turned to his reptilian parter, who was trying to look innocent with a whistle.
"Oh, are you talking about me?" Ghost said.
"You killed people?! Ghost, we were specifically instructed NOT to kill people this time! What the hell is wrong with you?!"
"In my defense, comrades. They attacked me! I told them I meant them no harm! Honest!" Ghost justifies.
"Ghost, one thing. All you had to do was one thing. ONE. UNO. Take. The scroll. WITHOUT. killing people!" Sutōkā scolded.
Ghost lowered her head in shame while Sutō blasted at her, all while Naruto was still talking with 'The Purple Man'.
"Me and my organization had been searching for the Crimson Scroll for quite a while now. When I heard that your people had discovered, I sent my stealth operatives, Ghost and Sutōkā to recover it, though I told them no casualties but I'm sure you know how that turned out. Sorry about that."
"Why do you need the scroll?" Uzumaki asked.
"This might sound crazy. To save the Multiverse." The Purple Man answered.
The Hokage's eyes widened.
"Save the Multiverse?" He questioned.
"Don't listen to him, Uzumaki!" Genryusai shouted.
Naruto ignored the shouting Swordsmen and continued to talk to The Purple Man.
"What do you mean?" He asked.
"We're called Paradox. We are an organization of specialists who travel from world to world, protecting people from malevolent forces, like Kaguya Ōtsutsuki ."
When the voice called Kaguya 'malevolent', Sutō felt thousands of needles piercing his heart. He was right, but it still hurt him.
"Protecting people? Well, you sure did a bang up job with helping the people of my Village." Naruto sarcastically said.
"I said I was sorry." The voice grumbled.
"Ok, so you say that you help people. What, like superheroes?" Naruto assumed.
After a few seconds, a hologram was projected from the device, showing an image of a creature in strange clothing attacking a village full of people, who were fleeing for there lives.
"Among the Earths and other worlds in the Multiverse, there exist beings known as Destroyers. They are powerful creatures that are capable of obliterating entire worlds, killing entire civilizations for the most ridiculous reasons! They even go as to call themselves "gods"! No god would ever try and destroy innocent people for no reason. It ain't right!"
The hologram then showed one of these "gods" attacking an innocent family with a large smirk on their face.
"That's where Paradox comes in. We fight these false gods back to keep peace in the Multiverse. We travel from dimension to dimension to eradicate any one of these creatures that would threaten innocent people. Whether it be Hollows, Prime Field Devices, the Ōtsutsuki Clan... but the "Gods" of Destruction are the worst."
That about summed it up for Naruto.
"That's why we need the Crimson Scroll, to help us in our fight against the Destroyers." The Purple Man finished.
"It's all lies, Lord Seventh!" Gen shouted.
Uzumaki looked back at the two fire users; their faces burning with rage.
"Why is that?" He asked.
Igneel stepped forward and began to talk himself.
"All Paradox cares about is killing Destroyers, and they don't care what happens to people that get in the way!"
"That's not true!" Sutōkā defended.
"Of course they want the Destroyer Gods gone, all the members of Paradox were victims of their wrath and they're taking out their anger on them!" Igneel pointed out.
"You don't know what they do! Besides, what we're doing isn't out of revenge. This is to keep anyone else from suffering like we did! It's justice!" Sutōkā argued.
The Dragon scoffed.
"Call it what you want, lunatics!"
The two fits users and Paradox agents soon began to yell at each other like children arguing over a toy. Naruto ended up in the middle of this... whatever it was with Ghost and Sutō both shouting past his ear.
The other four stood back and sweat dropped.
"Should we break this up, Uncle?" Boruto asked.
"We probably should..."
...
"Meh." The both said at the same time.
Finally, Naruto had enough.
"ALRIGHT, ALRIGHT! ENOUGH ALREADY!" He shouted.
The four strangers stopped yelling. Naruto then walked back towards his friends.
"Look, I honestly don't care who's side is what. What I care about is the fact that you two broke into my village and killed innocent civilians just to get that scroll!"
"That was Ghost! I had-"
"EPP!"
"But-"
"I SAID EPP!"
The Hokage tossed the gadget he was holding back to Ryukki, who caught it and put it back on his wrist.
"I'm sorry, Sutōkā. I can't let you leave after what you and Natalia have done to my people. I'm placing you under arrest." He said to the boy.
Sutō sighed in disappointment. He was hoping that the Hokage would understand their mission and let them go. Guess that was wishful thinking.
"I understand." He replied to the Hokage.
Ryukki gripped his sword's scabbard with his left hand.
"Too bad we can't stay here on this world and place prisoner. We're leaving, Lord Seventh, whether you like it or not."
Naruto noticed Sutō's action and prepared a hand sign out of caution.
"I don't wanna fight you, Sutōkā. I can tell you're a good kid."
"Get out of our way, Naruto."
"No."
They both stood their ground in silence, daring the other to make a move, ready for even the slightest movement.
Sutō was strategizing in his head about how this fight could go down. He completely underestimated the rotation speed of the Wind Style: Rasenshuriken and it almost cost him his life. Even if he can cut through something like an energy attack, like Champa used, wind traveling at such speeds that it cuts you at the cellular level, that's not something he can easily defend against.
If he gets caught in the attack's rotating wind dome again, and if Ghost isn't able to pull him out, he'd have to try something risky.
Ryukki has an attack he calls Twister Slash, where his invisible force slashes all around him in a circular fashion like a spin-top. He could use it to counter the Rasenshuriken's rotation speed by having his own attack spin in the opposite direction to unravel it from the inside, provided that his Twister Slash can overtake the shuriken's rotation speed.
That would give him a bit of an edge. However, there is also the problem with-
"Pay attention, kid!"
Sutō was so lost in thought that he failed to notice that Naruto had summoned at least twenty Shadow Clones, and they were all surrounding him and Ghost.
"Crap!" He cursed.
"Sutōkā, get ready!" Ghost told her partner.
The clones all paired up with each other, forming ten pairs of two, then they all started gathering Chakra in their hands and they formed large swirling orbs of energy.
"GIANT RASENGAN BARRAGE!"
The clones quickly charged at the two outworlders, wanting to finish this fight before it even starts, but something happened to prevent that.
Strange red swirls appeared in the paths of the clones and they all ran into them, disappearing without a trace.
"What the?! My Shadow Clones just vanished!" Naruto exclaimed.
The swirls then vanished while one more appeared on the ground in front of Ghost and Sutōkā. The teen smirked and sighed in relief for some reason.
"Talk about perfect timing. Thanks for the help, Breach." He said.
Something was now starting to emerge from the red swirl on the ground. It was a hooded figure, covered head to toe in a black robe, completely unrecognizable. One can't even see their face. Once it emerged from the swirl, it levitated off the ground and the swirl vanished into nothing. The figure began to moan; their voice deep, yet sounding feminine, depicting that this 'Breach' was a woman.
"Wha- What is that thing?" Naoto wondered, a big creeped out.
"Mmmm... You really should not get so lost in thought, child. It leaves you open." Breach said.
"Sorry, bad habit. What are you doing here, by the way? I thought Vulcan was picking us up." Sutōkā asked.
The hooded figure giggled a bit when she heard the name of this 'Vulcan'.
"He "accidentally' slipped and landed on a pencil, getting it stuck in his arm and leaving him unable to pilot a ship." She explained, making quote motions with her sleeves when she said "accidentally".
"Really..? Jeez, that guy goes WAY too far to get out of missions." Sutōkā sighed.
"Can you blame him? He just had twins and he's going through the paranoid parent phase." Ghost pointed out.
"Hey! Are you guys gonna talk or are we gonna fight?!" Naruto shouted.
The trio turned their gazes to the Shinobi.
"Course we are. Now get ready, HERE I COME!"
Suddenly, a gigantic slash tore through the ground at Naruto's feet and he was forced to leap back out of astonishment.
'Whoa! That was close! What was that?!' He didn't even move!' The Hokage wondered.
"Breach, we can't leave yet. We have to deal with these guys, ok?" Sutō said to his comradeZ
"...Very well... I do find the blond one... Mmmm, quite fascinating." Breach moaned.
"Then you take Naruto and Sasuke. Ghost, you get the kids, but don't kill them. DO NOT kill them. Genryusai and Igneel are mine."
Ghost and Breach nodded in compliance as the all dashed towards their opponents.
"Here they come! Naoto, Hibiki, I know this may not seem like your fight, but can you guys help us out?" Naruto asked the teen.
"I don't think we got much choice here, old man!" Naoto replied.
"It doesn't matter. You saved my life back in that cave, Lord Seventh. The least I can do is help you with this fight." Hibiki said.
"Thanks, you guys. Now, get ready!"
Naruto and the others readied themselves for combat and within seconds, the battle broke out. The three members of Paradox each separated their respective opponents and engaged them in conflict.
Naoto, Boruto and Hibiki were dealing with Ghost, who they were having a hard time fighting since she can phase through any and all of their attacks.
Hibiki was desperately trying to slash Ghost with his twin kunai, yet they just passed through her like thin air. He leaped backwards into the air and dove down with his kunai pointed directly at Ghost.
"PIERCING MUZZLE-BLADE!"
By no surprise, the diving stab attack didn't effect a Ghost and she passed right through Kohaku and the only thing that his kunai dug into was the ground. He yanked his blade out and hopped up at the lizard, then spun like a tornado.
"DOUBLE WING CYCLONE!"
Ghost phases through that too and once she completely passed through Kohaku, she grabbed his leg and slammed him onto the ground, then pulled out one of her knives and stabbed him in the heart. Hibiki cried in pain, but he quickly began to turn black as the night sky, then he just started to come apart as a flock of ravens that flew away.
'Birds?! That was a clone?! Vzryv!'
She had fallen for Hibiki's Double Chase Drive and had no idea where the assassin was now, and as she was lost in thought, Naoto dove down from above and slammed his fist into Ghost's head... or would have if he hadn't passed right through her. His fist smashed to the earth and left a small crater from the impact.
Ghost leaped away and readied her Jet Blades; the weapons floating in a circular fashion behind her back so she doesn't have to hold them, because she can't phase if she's holding something.
Naoto charged and tried slashing the reptilian with a razor blade of crystallized blood.
"SLASH KAID!"
Ghost countered with her floating knives, blocking the razor-edged blood blade with her floating smaller blades. Ghost had a total of ten knives, and she was defending with only eight, so she had the other two zoom around Naoto and then they bolted towards his back, where he was open.
"Shit!" He cursed.
"Naoto, look out!"
Boruto was running towards his allay as fast as he could while making a hand sign. The boy spawned a Shadow Clone right behind Kurogane and it took the knife attack to protect the teen, then vanished into a poof of smoke.
"Thanks, Boruto!"
The young Ninja gave the teen a thumbs up in response.
Ghost and Naoto were still locked together in a clash, giving a certain assassin the opportunity he needed to strike. Hibiki dove down from the sky with his kunai ready for striking. Ghost managed to hear Kohaku descended from above and began to phase into the ground very quickly.
"Black Thunder: NUE!"
Hibiki smashed into the ground and left a huge dust cloud in his wake. Ghost reappeared several feet away while Boruto and the two Drive users emerged from the dust cloud, still raring to go.
"I see now, you're a Drive user, aren't you?" Naoto assumed.
'Drive... user? What's that?' Boruto wondered.
Ghost chuckled a bit.
"Impressive. Not many people can tell what my power is, boy. How did you know?"
"Tch! Let's just say I have some sharp eyes." Kurogane responded, referring to his Eye of the Hunter.
Ghost raised her claw and made it turn translucent to demonstrate her power.
"It's called Slip Shadow, and it works by ripping apart every cell in my body and then stitching back together, allowing me to phase through objects and even turn invisible. That's how I earned the name 'Ghost, the Rampaging Spirit'." She explained.
'So that's how it works. I'm surprised she's even able to use her Drive with what little Seither there is in this world. Does she have a Seither Reserve Tank like me?' Hibiki wondered.
He looked down at his side and glanced at his tank strapped to his side. Like the others, he took one before jumping into the Dimensional Transporter after Noel, in case he ever needed to fight since there is barely any Seither in these strange worlds.
The tank's reading said that it was still half full, which was good. Hibiki didn't really use that much of his Drive back when he fought Aisha, so he's still got a lot left.
'My tank reading is still quite full, so I should be fine for quite a while, but I shouldn't let my guard down against this woman.' He thought.
"Why are you two trying to stop us? I'm not your enemy, and you're not part of his village, so why should you care what happens to Naruto Uzumaki's people?" Ghost questioned.
"It doesn't matter if we're part of Naruto's village or not. He and his family helped me out when I needed help, and I owed it to Naruto when I let his son get kidnapped, so any enemy of him is no friend of mine!" Naoto answered, summoning a sword of blood.
"I see. Then there's no point in reasoning with you, servant of the Alucards."
The teen's eyes widened. She knew about the Alucards?! How?!
"When you die, say hello to Clavis in the Underworld!" Ghost said as she charged again.
Over with Naruto and Sasuke, the two Ninja masters were locked in combat with the mysterious third member of Paradox, Breach. Naruto had summoned multiple Shadow Clones to try and outnumber the mystery woman, but she managed to swat each and every one away with her arms, which were confirmed by her cloak.
Sasuke even tried using Chidori Stream on Breach, which is an area attack and zaps everything around it, but she avoided that too by summoning one of her mysterious red swirls and vanishing into it to avoid electrocution.
After reappearing and chuckling at their efforts, Naruto and Sasuke grew annoyed and planned to wipe her out with one powerful blow.
First, Naruto closed his eyes for a minute and suddenly, his eyelids were now covered in an orange makeup, similar to a Kabuki. Then he opened his eyes and the pupils became yellow and horizontal like a frog's.
This was Sage Mode, which Naruto can enter by gathering Nature Energy from all his surroundings like trees and the sky. It increases his power, speed, insurance and Ninja abilities immensely and allows Uzumaki to use Senjutsu, or Sage Arts, which rely on Nature Energy instead of the Chakra Energy of a Human.
Second, Sasuke closed his eyes and his right eye started to bleed. Once he opened it, his Sharingan changed shape. Instead of a red eye with a pupil and three coma marks around it, it became a six pointed star with a three pointed shuriken within it as the pupil.
The Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan. The Mangekyō is the most powerful form of the Uchiha clan's Sharingan, which can only be achieved through immense emotional and psychological trauma, like watching someone you care about die. This upgraded Dōjutsu, or Visual Arts, enhances the already impressive sight of Sharingan and give its user new abilities, unique among each user. However this power leave a massive strain on the eyes of the user and eventually causes them to go blind, unless you find some one with the same freaky eyes, gouge them out, rip out your own eyes and then... replace em... with the... other guys... Aaaaand we're done with the Subway Club.
(It's things like this that make me question the mental health of the Naruto writers)
Once the transfer is done, the eyes become even stronger because the leftover Chakra in the ocular lenses infused with the user's, and as an added bonus, they don't loose their sight!
Naruto summoned two clones that started gathering both wind and Chakra in his hand, while Sasuke summoned a sai made of black fire.
"Wind Style: RASENSHURIKEN!"
"Inferno Style: FLAME CONTROL!"
The two then launched both a giant wind shuriken and the flaming said at once and the two attacks merged into one. A giant black flaming shuriken.
"Collaboration Ninjutsu! Scorch Style: NIMBUS TEMPEST!"
The black shuriken soared through the air at blinding speeds and it exploded right in front of breach, creating a giant vortex of black flames. The Shinobi were sure that finished the mystery woman off.
"Think that did it?" Naruto asked.
"Don't know. I can't see her Chakra, but stay on guard." Sasuke suggested.
Suddenly, a red swirl appeared beside Uzumaki and the Hokage flinched.
"Such power. Beauty and brawn, you're perfect!"
A sleeve reached out from the swirl. Naruto turned his head to face the strange portal and something emerged from the sleeve. It looked like a tentacle, like the ones on Eight Tails, and it came into contact with Naruto's face; the strange appendage feeling wet and cold against his skin. It also left some kind of substance on his skin that felt like mucus.
Luckily, Naruto was trained since childhood to be completely immune to anything one might find repulsive and he kept his cool.
...
Ahh, who am I kidding! This is Naruto Uzumaki, we all know his response!
"GYAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHA! HAAAAAAAAA! UGH! EWW! EWW! EWW! WHAT THE FUCK?! OH GOD OH GOD!"
"Naruto, what the hell's wrong with you?!" Sasuke exclaimed, surprised by Naruto's sudden freak out.
"Something cold, slimy and disgusting just came out of that chick's sleeve and licked my face!" He answered.
Breach emerged from the swirl and giggled a bit like a school girl.
"Oh, come now. I was merely trying to feel your skin. Baby smooth, I might ad. You have the body of a angel." Breach complimented.
"Wait, f-feel? That was your h-h-hand..?" Naruto stuttered.
The hooded woman laughed a bit at his response.
"Hand? I don't have a hand, boy. That was my tentacle."
...
...
...
"Gurlwhatyousay?" Naruto questioned with a high pitch.
Slowly and seductively, Breach began to strip from her cloak and she revealed her true form to Uzumaki and Uchiha, and both of them gasped from shock.
Breach's head was absolutely nightmarish. It lacked any human features. Her mouth was a pink beak that somehow cracked a smile, her eyes were pitch black with soulless purple dots in them, her "hair" was just a collective of tentacles waving around her head, he knew she didn't even have a nose!
Her body was rounded with no chest or stomach, just a mass of purple flesh with a strange symbol tattooed on the middle of it. She had no legs, so Breach was floating in the air and her arms were nothing but two long tentacles with sharp ends. Her absolutely horrendous appearance made her resemble something H.P. Lovecraft would probably think up and write about. She was a monster!
"Ooohh... It feels wonderful to get that cloak off." Breach moaned with her eyes closed.
"What... are you..?" Sasuke questioned.
"I am Alva Chtluth of Planet Mythos, but you can refer to me as Breach." Breach introduces herself.
Naruto almost puked at the sight of this hideous creature, and from the fact that it touched him with its tentacle.
"I am what's known as a Mythonian, a race of octopus like beings who are known for their hypnotic abilities. However, I am the last of my kind after we were wiped out by a biological plague caused by my dimension's Destroyer, so I join with Paradox to hunt them down and rebuild what my people lost." She explained.
"Ok, but if your specialty is hypnotizing people, what's with that weird teleporting power?" Naruto asked, still creeped out.
The octopuse creature swirled her tentacle arm around and conjured a small red swirl.
"That's Alternative Echo, my Drive."
'Drive... That word again. What's a "Drive", and why does it look so familiar?' Naruto wondered.
"This lets me open breaches in space and let me pass through them, whether it be to another location, or Dimension." Breach explained her powers.
"So you can travel across dimensions? That's quite a trick." Sasuke complimented.
"Save your commentary, you one armed fool. I have no interest in talking to you." Breach spat at Sasuke.
She turned her gaze to Uzumaki.
"You are who I wish to speak with, my dear Naruto."
"WhaHuh?" Naruto said.
Breach then opened a portal bellow her and vanished into it, the reappeared in front of Naruto, right in his face. The Hokage yelped in a high pitched tone upon her reemergence.
"Naruto! Get away from him!"
"Ugh. If you would just run along, Sasuke Uchiha."
Sasuke tried to get close to his friend, but Breach summoned a portal in front of Uchiha and he ran right into it, vanishing into the unknown
"SASUKE!" Naruto cried.
A portal then opened up at the Hokage's feet and he along with Breach slowly sunk into it. She wrapped her tentacles around his arms and stared into his very soul as they descended.
"Let's give us some privacy, Lord Seventh."
"Privacy for what..?"
"Oh, you will see..."
Over with Sutōkā and the fire users...
"RYŪJIN JAKKA!"
"FIRE DRAGON KING'S ROOOOOAR!"
Two huge blasts of blue fire hurled towards Ryukki, but the sword master's strange defense slashed rapidly through the flames until none remained. To counter, Sutōkā hit them both with his fearsome Buster Slash. They managed to block with their sword and scales, but the sheer power of the attack rattled their insides.
Sutōkā followed up by zooming towards the two and unleashing another attack.
"TWISTER SLASH!"
Iggy and Gen both got cut by a spinning slash right in their guts, spraying blood onto the ground. Then they both got slashed in the chests and were knocked back several feet away. The two fell to the ground with blood dripping from their wounds. Even beings as powerful as the former Soul Reaper Head Captain and the Fire Dragon King were little match for this mysterious boy.
"That all you old timers got? I'm just gettin' warmed up!" Sutōkā mocked, cracking his neck.
Genryusai got back onto his feet and tightened his grip on his Zanpakuto.
"Don't be so arrogant, boy. There's a reason why I was Head Captain of the Soul Society for a thousand years."
"Yeah, yeah, I know, and don't forget that I've been around just as long as you have thanks to Vados." Sutō reminded the Reaper.
The Zanpakuto caught fire and Yamamoto swung it in the air. The swords blue flames raged like a volcano as he waved the weapon around.
"Give me your best shot." Sutōka taunted.
"JŌKAKU ENJŌ!"
With one mighty swing, Genryusai lobbed a gigantic blast of fire at the teen and it began to swirl around him, forming a ginormous wall of blue fire, spinning like a tornado. Ryukki was now completely trapped in the swirling dome of flames, completely isolated from the outside.
The Soul Reaper the readied his sword again and launched another blast of fire at the dome.
"TAIMATSU!"
The fire blast came into contact with the dome and erupted in a massive blue explosion. Igneel was almost blown away from the blast if he hadn't sprouted his Dragon tail and dug it into the ground. He was quite surprised.
Gen just used two of his signature attacks, which he almost NEVER uses because the former Head Captain was just so powerful that he could easily defeat an opponent without even using his sword, but to actually have to use TWO of his attacks on Sutōkā, that just proves how dangerous the boy is.
"ENNETSU JIGOKU! BURN TO NOTHING!"
Finally, Genryusai summoned seven gargantuan pillars of blue fire around the explosion and they all began to grow bigger and bigger until they merged into one enormous fire pillar. The heat melted away the very earth around it and was leaving a hole in the earth that looked like it belonged to a meteor.
Once the pillar dissipated, all that remained in that huge area was nothing but ashes. Nothing could have survived.
"Foolish child..." Yamamoto sighed.
"I told you, I'm no child."
Suddenly, Sutōkā appeared in front of Gen out of absolutely nowhere, not a singe burn on him, and his strange defense pierced through Genryusai's body twice, then three slashes across his chest, and then two more punctures into the eyes; blood erupting from the exit wounds of the attack and spraying onto the ground.
"BRUTALITY SLASH!"
Gen cried in agony from the continuous cuts and stabbings on his body. Sutō then smashed his foot into the Reaper's throat and knocked him away several feet. Gen crashed onto the ground, groaning in pain.
"Genryusai!" Igneel cried.
"Give it up, you two. There's no way you can beat me." Sutō said coldly.
Igneel smashes his fist into the ground and cracked the earth with his insane strength. He forced himself up and started growling.
"Give up? Me?! You must be joking!"
Suddenly, blue flames surrounded Igneel and he began to undergo a transformation.
"Do you have any idea who you're talking to, boy?"
Gen managed to force himself up despite his condition, and noticed what his boyfriend was doing.
"Igneel, what are you doing?! We're not suppose to use them, remember?!" He shouted.
"I don't have a choice, Genryusai!" Igneel argued.
The skin on Iggy's face began hardening and changing color, same as the rest of his body, even though it's covered by a skin suit, and his eye started glowing yellow.
"This Ōutsutsuki reject has insulted my honor, killed this Dimension's Destroyer God, and hurt the man I love. I won't let him get away with any of it!"
The symbol on his chest began glowing a bright blue as he recites all too familiar words.
"Restriction 666 released, dimensional interference field deployed!"
Over with our Orange Hokage...
Naruto found himself in an empty void, nothing around but green and black hues mixed in together all around him. The only other thing there was Breach, who had Uzumaki trapped in her tentacles' grasp.
"Where are we?! What is this place?! Where's Sasuke?!" Naruto questioned.
"Hush, Lord Seventh. Everything will be ok soon enough." Breach whispered, placing a tendril on his mouth to silence him.
It felt cold and slimy, just like before, making Uzumaki shiver in disgust.
"You posses the strength of a lion, the speed of a snake. the beauty of a eagle. You are truly worthy of joining my kingdom." She spoke.
"Kingdom? What are you talking about?" Naruto questioned.
Breach chuckled.
"As I told you, my people were wiped out, so I am trying to rebuild our great society. Paradox supplied me with everything I needed to build a new home for us. I already have a city worthy enough to call New Mythos, all I need now is the people to inhabit it."
Her tendrils started to slither around Naruto's hips, making Uzumaki shiver.
"However, the only ones I would allow to stay in my city is Mythonians, and since there are no more left, I must create them."
"Create them? Like, reproduce until you fill up the city or something?" Naruto guessed.
"No, that will take too long..."
Breach leaned her face closer to Uzumaki's.
"I turn people I deem worthy into my species." She answered.
Sighing not even a second of hearing that, Naruto's heart rate increased and he started sweating buckets. Turn people into her?!
"You t-t-turn people into... what you are?!" He exclaimed.
Alva tightened her grip around Naruto's waist.
"Yes, but only the worthy. Just. Like. You." She whispered seductively.
"WHA?! Nah uh! No way, Squidwardette! I ain't gonna look like you!" Naruto rejected.
"Oh, but you won't just look like me, Lord Uzumaki. You will be a Mythonian in body, mind and soul. You will fall completely in love with what you are about to become."
The Hokage desperately tried to struggle and squirm his way to freedom, but Breach's grip was too strong, no matter how hard he tried. However, even with the truth of futility, he continued his struggle. Naruto was genuinely scared.
"Calm yourself, Lord Uzumaki. This will be a gift you will cherish for eternity." Breach whispered.
"Forget it, lady! I don't want your gift! Let me go!" Naruto refused again.
"Once the assimilation is complete, then I shall. I think that it would be best if I explain to you the steps of the process so you may know how to use it on others once we're done."
One tendril slid up Naruto's face, caressing him. That only made the man shiver again.
"First I must implant a Mythonian brain into your body, so it may feed on your Human brain until the previous brain is gone, and your skull is empty."
Upon hearing that, Naruto struggled even more. Something's gonna eat his brain and leave his skull empty?! No way in hell!
"No! Nonononono! Let me go!"
"Now, how do you prefer, oral or anal?" Breach asked.
"Let me go- Wait, what did you just ask me?" Naruto asked in confusion, calming down for a minute.
"I'm asking where you want my tentacle to enter you for the brain implantation."
"Oh. ...GAAAAAAAAAH! YOU SAYING THAT THIS 'IMPLANTATION' INVOLVES YOU PENETRATING ME?!"
"Only if you're into that stuff, Lord Seventh. I mean, you've been penetrated before, right?"
"DON'T BE RIDICULOUS! OF COURSE I HAVE!"
The Hokage just realized what he said and instantly regretted it. He started blushing like crazy and his eyes went wide. Breach giggled a bit from his response.
'Why did I just say that?' Naruto wondered in embarrassment.
"Don't worry, my child. If you are not comfortable with that, then I will implant the brain orally. Now, look into my eyes, and experience what I have to offer you..." Breach cooed.
"UH UH! NO WAY! NOT GONNA HAPPEN!"
Naruto tried looking away but Breach grabbed the sides of his face with her tendrils, forcing his head to stay still.
"Can't we talk about this?!"
"Mind Breach..."
Suddenly, Breach's eye began to glow a brilliant hue of purple, which immediately caught Naruto's attention. Uzumaki instantly stopped squirming upon looking into Breach's eyes and felt a calmness wash over him. He was at a loss for words and didn't dare move a finger, for reasons he knew not, and within seconds, his eyes started glowing the same purple as Breach's. His eyelids closed halfway as he stared into the light before him.
"Yes, Naruto. Just look into my eyes... Relax... Clear your mind of all doubts..." Breach whispered.
Naruto's mind felt foggy as he found it harder and harder to think. There was a small part of him that was still trying to fight deep inside, but Breach's power was too much for him. This was no Genjutsu, so even if Naruto tried agitating his Tailed Beast Chakra, which snaps its host out of any Genjutsu, it wouldn't work because this is just pure bread and butter hypnotism. Naruto's mind kept getting emptier until all there was left was a ping sound in his mind.
"Excellent, Naruto. You have accepted your destiny. Are you prepared to revive the gift of the Mythonians?" Breach asked, still keeping strong with her powers.
Naruto stayed silent for a few seconds until he finally answered.
"...Yes..."
"Then open wide."
The Shinobi did as instructed and opened his mouth. Breach opened her mouth as well and began gagging a bit. Suddenly, a purple tendril slithered out of her beak as she drew close to Uzumaki. The tentacle began to slither into Naruto's mouth and reached down his throat, making him gag as well. He moaned in discomfort from both the sensation and taste, but the hypnosis managed to keep him from rejecting her.
Now Naruto's has some gross stuff happen to him over the years, such as his first kiss being with Sasuke... multiple times, drinking that expired milk, getting swallowed by a giant snake, that Fūka chick trying to suck out his soul through a kiss, eating Sakura's nasty food pills, Itachi stuffing a live crow down his throat, accidentally eating bugs, (it's a long story with that one) a toad hopping into him mouth and sliding down his throat, that Moldshroom that almost caused Naruto to starve over seas, Itachi's said crow flying out of his mouth, Orochimaru's cooking, and sucking the cock of one of the Brotherhood of the Nine's acolytes after what Kurama pulled, but this has to take the cake!
He then felt the tendril squirt something down his throat, making Naruto groan a bit in response.
'Yes. At last. I welcome you among my people, Naruto Uzuma- AAAGH!'
Breach felt sharp pain on the tendril she put in Naruto's mouth. The reason why was because Naruto was biting down on it hard. The octopus creature withdrew her appendage and separated from Uzumaki, sucking the tendril back into her mouth. Breach then noticed that Naruto's eyes were now blood red and slitted like a fox, indicating that Kurama had taken over the Ninja's body to save him.
"Get away from him, you freak!" Kurama growled.
"Oh? You must be the fox. That would explain how Naruto broke my trance. Impressive, switching consciousness I mean." Breach complimented.
"Spare your flattery, creature! I won't let you take Naruto! Not without getting past me!" The fox stated.
"Oh really? That shouldn't be too hard. So how's Naruto doing in there? Is he still in hypnotic bliss or what?" The octopus asked.
"Ugh..."
*A few seconds earlier*
Within the Tailed Beast Plain, Naruto was laying in the cold waters of the sewer, completely out of it due to Breach's hypnosis. Kurama poked at Uzumaki with his claw, trying to wake his host.
"Naruto! Naruto, wake up!" The fox called.
"Ugh... Five more minutes, Sakura..." Naruto mumbled in his sleep.
"Wake up, you idiot!"
"ALRIGHT, SAKURA! I'M UP! Geez! I'm always so nice to you, why are you always yelling at me?" Naruto whimpered, still half asleep.
He began walking away from Kurama for some reason and towards the corner of the sewer.
"Naruto, what are you doing, baka?" Kurama asked.
"I made that promise to you that I'd get Sasuke back when we were little and you still yell at me... I don't know why... I love you..."
Now Uzumaki was now full on taking off his pants and sitting in the waters, making weird and down-right disturbing noises, like he was trying to take a dump. That's because he WAS trying to take a dump. Kurama just stared in disgust and surprise at the Ninja and pulled out what looked like a phone, then dialed a number.
"Hey, Marge? Yeah, it's me again. I'm gonna need a clean up in my prison."
"GET OUT OF ME!"
"And bring a shovel."
*Back in the real world*
"He's a little out of it." Answered Kurama.
"Oh well, it doesn't matter. Once I'm done with you, I'll bless you with the gift of my people as well as the Hokage. I bet those tails of yours would look glorious as tentacles instead."
His tails as tentacles? Kurama then thought of that image in his head and was disgusted. He might as well have been born as Eight Tails if that were the case.
Kurama shook that thought out of his head and refocused on Breach.
"Fat chance that'll happen, freak! Get ready, here I-"
"Grrrrrrrrr..."
Nine Tails was cut off by a mysterious sound. A sound he knew too well. He then felt something breathing down Naruto's neck; the breath hot and of foul smell, like rotting corpses. Breach had a surprised look on her face when she got a look at what was behind Kurama.
"Oh my! I never would have thought my new ornament for my kingdom would come to life like this." She said.
Slowly, Kurama turned Naruto's head and got a look at what was behind him and he gasped in terror.
It was a giant wooden statue, with multiple eyes, razor sharp fangs and huge spikes on its back. It was the bane of all Tailed Beasts and the symbol of the Akatsuki crime syndicate's goal.
"No..! It can't be..!"
*In the real world*
"Restriction 666 released, dimensional interference field deployed!"
Igneel's blue light glowed ever brighter with each passing second. Ryukki knew what the Dragon King was doing and smirked.
"So that's it, huh? That's how you wanna do this? Fine! I'll meet you all the way!"
Sutō raised his left hand and within his palm, was a single red jewel, embedded into his flesh. He clenched his fist and it caught fire with blood red flames.
"Restriction 777 released, temporal distortion field online!"
Both the Dragon and Hukan were consumed by their swirling flames as they were about to unleashed their secret weapons on each other.
"Azure Grimoire..!"
"Crimson Grimoire..!"
But the moment they would say the last part of the deployment system, Breach flew out of a red swirl with Naruto's body in her grasp. She crashed into the ground covered in wounds, coughing up blue blood from her beak.
Igneel and Sutōkā stopped when they saw the octopus creature appear and Ryukki quickly ran to his comrade's aid.
"Breach?! Hey, are you ok?! What happened?!" He frantically asked.
"Run child... I've made a grave mistake..." Breach managed to say.
"What are you... talking... about..?"
Sutōkā got a glance at Naruto and noticed that his current was even worse. The Hokage was desperately gasping for air, his skin was worryingly pale and his eyes were bloodshot. It's like something tried to suck the life out of him.
"N-Naruto..?" Sutō gasped.
Suddenly, something emerged from Breach's still open portal behind Ryukki. It appeared to be a giant wooden hand. The teen turned his head and gasped in horror.
"What the hell?!"
To be continued...
