When God was still alive, he created tools that could only be granted to humans, or in the case of certain individuals, those who were born half-human. Some were created using forbidden magic, while others carried legendary monsters that acted as its source of power. They were called God's Artifact's, otherwise known as Sacred Gears.
During the Great War between the Angels, Devils, and Fallen Angels, God, as well as the Devil Kings, perished in battle, greatly shifting the balance. Angels were no longer able to be made without God running the system. With God's death, the Sacred Gear system was greatly affected. It gave birth to Balance Breakers, a powerful and otherwise flaw in the system that could never be corrected without God to be the one to fix. But the most fatal flaw was the Longinus. Fourteen of the most powerful Sacred Gears with the ability to kill even a God. For centuries, the Heavens kept tabs on all Longinus wielders, for they feared that one day, the Longinus users who reached a level capable of killing God would rise up to try to overthrow heaven.
Although this never came to pass, the fear of the Longinus drove the heavens to create a safeguard, in the event such a thing could ever happen. Three centuries after God's death, the four Seraphs: Michael, Gabriel, Raphael, and Uriel used what research they were able to find from the fallen God's system, as well as the research from the Grigori to create weapons that high ranked Angels, worthy humans, and even the Seraphs themselves could use to fight Sacred Gears and even kill Longinus users. Just like the Balance Breaker, each of these weapons had a more powerful state that could be accessed through experience.
The name of these weapons that were made to be the successor of even the Longinus, were called the Divine Regalia.
Just like God, they created fourteen weapons out of various, powerful material. Materials such as rare metals, magic, and even the body parts of rare monsters were used to forge weapons capable of taking out an entire army of Devils and Fallen Angels. In the right hands, they were dangerous, believed to be unbeatable, so powerful that the Seraphs sealed these weapons as a way to protect them for when the heavens one day needed these "Trump Cards".
The strongest among them was Michael's personal weapon. A spear that was rumored to be as strong as the most powerful Longinus, a holy spear that carries the individual cores of ten elemental, high ranked monsters and was able to transform depending on its wielder's wish. As the years went by, it went by many names: Zachariah, Dafkiel, Kepharel, and its most recent name, Grandoma.
That was what the Seraphs told their soldiers as a way to boost their morale. While in truth, the reason the Regalia were sealed away, was because they were inferior to even the average class Sacred Gear. Comparing the Regalia to even a normal Sacred Gear was like a peasant to a Knight. While the comparison to a Longinus was like a peasant against a God.
A bright light shone around the praying Kiria as the spear disappeared within her body. The light was so intense that Mimi had to shield her eyes of fear of having her retinas burned out. "So bright, even I can't see."
"Come forth, Commandment Number Ten!"
"You're insane if you think I'm going to let you do that!" Mimi held her hands out and summoned several arrows of lavender light. "But I'll be taking your weapon!"
The arrows honed in and bombarded Kiria one after another, after another, after another.
Angels couldn't be hurt from light spears unless it was from an even stronger Angel. A Seraphs light would've been able to kill any Angel in a split second. A Fallen Angel's light was tainted and therefore was effective against other Angels.
However,
"Futile."
It was Kiria's voice. It wasn't different on terms of pitch, volume, or bass. But it held so much power that it shook the room and broke all of the glass windows. Mimi was forced to cover her sensitive ears as she gave off a pained yell. Her lack of concentration made the light spears she had at the ready disappear.
She opened her eyes, squinting from the intense light her opponent was giving off and scowled as she was able to take a good look at Kiria's new state. Her hair was in a long ponytail and it hung down on her shoulder. She donned a white silver and gold body knight armor that reached up to her neck. On her back were six wings gold in color, and a halo sat atop her head. She looked like a European knight with a noble, powerful aura.
In her right hand was a pitch black orb with a cloudy spiral inside, while all of Mimi's light spears were completely gone. "Golden armor?"
"This is Grandoma's trump card. The tenth commandment: Key to the Forbidden Heaven." Kiria held out her right hand and a triangular polearm made out of golden light appeared in her hands. What was strange about this weapon was that it was shaped somewhat like an actual key, a guard with a handle grip, a hilt, and a head at the end of the shaft that resembled the teeth of a skeleton key. A chain at the end of it wrapped around Kiria's right arm.
"A key?"
Kiria swung her keyblade around her body before gripping it in her right hand and swinging it straight for Mina's head. With a look of fear in her eyes, she instinctively bended her neck and threw her body backwards in a roll. The swung created a shockwave that made a clean slice through the walls of the building.
Despite the momentum, Kiria was still able to attack continuously and swung at her countless times with her blade, forcing Mina to dodge repeatedly.
Kiria's speed enhanced to where Mina, who was able to move faster than light, was unable to keep up with her movements. "She's fast, not even Light Gear is effective.' She thought while waiting for the proper opening. Mina ducked another decapitating swing and grinned seeing an opening in the form of Kiria's chin. She summoned a light spear and stabbed straight up. One good stab would've shot up to her brain and would kill her in an instant.
"Your weak light won't help you." In an instant, Kiria's hand wrapped around the shaft of light and gripped it. Mina was in shock and awe seeing as Fallen Angel light was effective against Angels as it was Devils. "How?"
There was a sudden flash of light and Mimi was sent flying at mach speed, and ended up crashing into the wall. Piles of debris and rubble fell on top of her.
Another flash of light wrapped around Kiria and she returned to her normal clothing. She looked at her watch and sighed in relief. "57 seconds, that was close."
Mimi dug her way out of the rubble and hacked blood. "What the hell was that power?"
Kiria's keyblade returned to its spear form. "To create Grandoma, cores from ten powerful monsters were used to power it. To be more precise, it was nine cores. The tenth that was used was a fragment of Michael-sama's original power." Kiria explained. "Using this trump card takes a year of my life for every minute I don the armor. Sorry, but I'm not one to waste my life like that."
Kiria thought back to when she apologized before using that form and was glad she didn't say it out loud out of embarrassment.
"So that's it?" Mimi asked before a ring of light was cuffed around her hands.
"You're coming with me. Michael-sama and Gabriel-sama has a personal word with you."
"What for?"
Kiria stifled trying to supress her anger. "A fallen angel, and a terrorist no less entering Heaven without going through the proper channels is bad enough. My orders were to capture you for the crime of trying to assassinate Michael-sama, an act that not even death will be able to atone."
"Isn't that cute, the little angel following orders like a good little ant." Mimi gave her a sly smile. "Sorry, but I've killed so many people I stopped remembering faces. It's a habit you start to pick up. But I don't think I could ever forget taking that Seraph bastard's head."
A vein appeared on Kiria's temple and she raised Grandoma. "How dare you insult him you tramp!" Kiria suddenly felt a sharp pain in her back, like blistering fire piercing in her shoulders. Her head started throbbing. "What is this?"
"Look at your wings."
Kiria did and saw that some of her feathers started turning black. "Your halos starting to crack."
"You bitch, what did you do to me?" Kiria growled.
"I didn't do anything. That's what happens when you try to disobey orders. You know, I was like that too when I served Michael." She suddenly said.
That comment made Kiria stop and widen her eyes. "What did you just say?"
"What did you think I was before my wings became black and I served Kokabiel?" Mimi snarked. "I was Michael's bodyguard before you. I was even promised a promotion in ranks after I completed a mission."
"What mission?"
"A band of Fallen Angels were planning to invade Heaven. You could imagine the casualties that would've happened if we let them do as pleased. So Michael ordered me to apprehend them for questioning. Of course I found them, but they attacked so naturally I fought back, and I brought their heads to Michael's feet."
"You killed them." Kiria was confused about what was wrong with that. In the past that would've been the normal course of action. "Wait, you disobeyed orders?"
"I was his loyal bitch. I followed all of his orders to the letter. I disobey one order, and he has my ass cast out of heaven and fall. When Angels give into their desires and fall, the process is painless. When Michael is the one who forces you to fall, it's a painful process. That must have hurt, felt like hot knives piercing every inch of your back didn't it? That's the price of being an Angel, we only live to carry out orders. He may let you do as you please, but you'll always come to his feet every time that collar of yours is yanked. All those who serve Michael, have no freedom."
Kiria couldn't take it and summoned her black orb before proceeding to absorb Mimi within it. "Just shut up. Unlike you Fallen, Angels have discipline. We follow orders, which is what we are born for." She looked at the orb in her hand and scowled, racking her brain whether she should break it.
The power of Sphere Frontier worked like a black hole, absorbing everything in her path. She could even absorb living creatures. However, the inside of the sphere was habitable, allowing for travel or to hide someone. As long as the sphere was intact, everything in it would stay until she summoned her white orb to release them. If she broke the orb, the gravity within it would crush everything, including Mimi into nothingness before it would regenerate itself.
Despite her internal struggle, she chose not to go that route, and made her sphere disappear before she summoned her wings. She looked off to the east and noticed a small white light. It was maybe an exit.
As she flew towards it, she couldn't shake off Mimi's words no matter how she tried.
"All those who serve Michael, have no freedom."
Kiria remembered when she first met Michael. It was the day when she died, he had appeared to her. His heavenly grace was warming and brought out bliss from Kiria, who was a spirit on her way to Heaven. She had contracted an unknown disease and fallen ill. From what the doctors told her, this particular sickness wasn't fatal to humans. However, Kiria was born with a weak and frail body, and because of that, a normal sickness, even a cold, was as bad as a heart disease.
The Konimes were a renowned corporation that specialized in electronic goods. They were one of the many pillars of Japan's techno age with advanced machinery fifteen years ahead of most countries, including the US. They even owned their own hospital, where Kiria spent seven years trying to recover. Despite the advanced machines that were hooked to her body, the medicine she was administered day after day, after day, Kiria's condition only worsened.
The worst part of it, was that Kiria could never muster up the strength in her body to scream even once. To voice her pain.
She hated being sick, having to send every day in a bed, staring at the same ceiling. She kept counting the tiles, and kept losing track so she had to count all over again. She had seen every show featured on the television, played and read all the games and manga her siblings gave her, and eventually, she couldn't take it anymore. Animals were never allowed, she could only see the birds fly by the window, and even the occasional fly. She never bothered swatting them because they meant no harm and were just minding their own business. She was in constant suffering and pain, the never ending sticking of needles in her arm, the saline making her insides freeze, and the dizziness she felt when they took blood, it was all unbearable.
Kiria prayed for recovery, but in the end, she hoped for death.
After she died, it was like she was flying, with no unearthly shackles in the form of machines and needles. She felt better in a long time than she ever felt alive. The one thing she did regret was leaving Naruto. It had hurt her heart, but at the time, she figured he would move on. That was when a bright, divine light blocked her path to paradise.
"A talent like yours would be wasted dead. I can fix your body, make it good as new. And you could live a long, happy life. No sickness, nothing to hold you back. However, you must fight for both my sake and the sake of heaven. If you choose so, I will give you freedom."
"Freedom, huh?" Kiria was forever grateful to Michael. She was close to Gabriel. She couldn't turn her back towards them for giving her a second chance that she had no right to have.
Even though she had her doubts, she still had her orders, and couldn't break them or risk becoming the one thing she couldn't stand.
"Did I know you?" Naruto suddenly said. "Can you tell me who I am?"
Kisara was trying her hardest to keep herself composed despite the shock that came from his question. "What are you saying? Don't waste your time trying to trick me. You can easily change your name and keep a low profile, but you can't ever hide who you are."
"Quit screwing with me! I'm not trying to hide from myself, I'm doing the damn opposite. I don't know anything about myself, all I know is my name and that's it! You talk like you knew me from a long time ago. You kept calling me Kagari, and you just called me your brother." Naruto suddenly started to get an intense headache and clutched his throbbing head. "My parents never told me I had siblings, no less a sister."
"That's impossible, both of our parents are dead, you should know that for a fact."
"Kisara, I think he really doesn't remember anything." Mina suddenly said.
"What are you saying, that he has complete amnesia?" Kisara asked.
"It's true!" Asia told the both of them. She grasped his hand. "He doesn't know anything about himself or his life. Please, if you know something then you have a right to tell him. Naruto-san is not the person that Mina-san described. He wouldn't do something so awful, to so many innocent people." She looked at Naruto who turned to Kisara and Mina. "Kisara right? Please, I'm begging you, if you know something, I'm asking nicely to-"
"Shut your filthy mouth already." Kisara suddenly interrupted and shot him a cold look capable of sending a chill down his spine. "You destroyed my home, all with a big grin on your face. You laughed, cackled when you killed your own mother. You wanted me to feel pain, to feel despair. Your one mistake was the fact that you didn't finish me off that night. If you dare, if you even think about trying to forget the horror you inflicted, I'll take my flames and brand it deep into you." Kisara looked up at him with tears in her eyes. "Just answer me…why?"
"There's got to be a misunderstanding." Naruto's words fell on deaf ears. "I'm telling you I don't remember anything no less destroying a town. I hate to tell you but you most likely got the wrong guy."
From her sacred gear, Ddraig's voice resonated from there. "What she's saying is 100% accurate. Kagari, eight years ago you used your sacred gear to terrorize your home and killed hundreds of innocent people. Men, women and children, you showed no mercy and slaughtered them all. Just like all of the other Black Dragon emperors of the past, you became deranged from power lust and ravaged both of your homes, as well as desecrated the dead. I should have seen it coming sooner."
Torafusa couldn't stay silent and communicated through the gem of Naruto's arm. "Hold on Ddraig, there's no proof Naruto would ever do something like that. He's not the kind of person to do that. He's a good kid."
"Silence Torafusa. You are just as guilty as he is for not doing everything in your power to stop it. Or have you too forgotten your crimes?"
"…"
"Torafusa?"
[I never thought about it before, but now that it came up, I don't seem to remember anything from eight years back. I was asleep…wasn't I?]
Asia looked at him with fear and concern in her eyes. "Naruto-san, tell me everything he just said was a lie."
"If even Ddraig acknowledges his actions, then it must be true." Mina said.
Naruto was confused, and had absolutely no clue how to react to that. Was what Kisara saying, all of her accusations…were they all the truth. 'No, it's all got to be a big mistake.'
"I've heard enough." Kisara declared.
"Boost!"
Naruto held out his hand in one last attempt to get her to see reason. "Wait, hold on!"
"Now then, face your judgment!"
Naruto yelled back as he pulled out his sword. "Asia, get back!"
"Shift!" A powerful dark aura cloaked his blade and the two dragon slayer's swords clashed again, creating a shockwave that sent the both of them flying several yards from each other.
"Please just listen to him!" Before Asia could take a step, a giant wall of ice appeared in front of her.
"Don't worry; this ice wall should keep you safe as long as I'm still kicking." Mina explained.
"Mina-san please stop them! If they really are siblings, they shouldn't fight each other!"
"This is what Kisara wants. Who am I to get in her way? I understand if you care for him, but the facts are where they are." Mina gave her a cold look that only appeared when she was dead serious about something. "Kagari Akuro must die to bring my love's peace."
Asia desperately banged on the cold surface trying to get the two of them to see reason.
Even though she was an enemy, Naruto sighed in relief at least knowing that Asia wouldn't be harmed. "Damn. Guess we don't have a choice but to fight. And I can't use my armor, I'm not sure how long I can last."
Kisara swung at him with absolutely no mercy, leaving Naruto very little time to counter. The only thing he could do with what little energy he had was swing and block. Sparks were produced from the clash of steel and the constant nicking of one another's swords.
As they repeatedly clashed, Naruto was balancing between fighting her and communicating with Torafusa, which was difficult with his mind dead set on survival.
[Naruto, it'll be a while before you can use your Balance Breaker again. I can sense the same for her. You two exerted too much power and won't be able to summon armor for at least an hour]
"If you have ideas, I'm open to suggestions." Naruto said in his mind.
For once, Deveen spoke up and voiced his opinion.
[Torafusa, why not let the boy use Juggernaut Drive? It might be the only thing that can-]
Torafusa interrupted him with disgust evidenced in his voice.
[Don't you dare give him that idea, you disgusting excuse for bile.]
"What the hell is Juggernaut Drive? If it'll work-"
[Juggernaut Drive is a dangerous technique and I will be damned before I let you even incite that chant.]
'Now's not the time for this overprotective father crap! If you got a better plan than you might want to do it now!'
[If that's the case then I'll have to release all of the limiter seals I placed on your Sacred Gear, which to you should be about five-hundred times the strength of an army. Since you are unfamiliar about your abilities, I'll take command and release your powers as necessary. But against another Dragon user, and Ddraig, who can boost his host's power repeatedly to God's level, I can't ensure a one hundred percent chance of victory.]
[I'll even let you use Grimoire's Legacy without destroying your body…yet. Just kill that Red Dragon]
"Way to ensure confidence, I'll take it!"
[Naruto, just know this isn't a suicide fight. Don't be reckless and do exactly as I tell you."
"Right, now here we go. Black Drive."
A black aura surrounded Naruto and he felt his strength amplify. Black strange markings appeared on his arms and on his neck. His dragon eye was unleashed and turned red as blood.
At that moment, Naruto's speed, magic, and overall power boosted more than he had ever felt. It was like he just woke up renewed with energy and pushed Kisara back with a swing of his sword, catching Kisara off guard. "What the-"
For once Kisara was on the defensive as Naruto summoned two blades and swung his sword madly. His hands moved so fast that they moved like blurs to where Kisara couldn't keep up with his movements. "He's gotten faster! I can't tell where he's going to strike." Thin cuts appeared on her arms and her cheek split open. 'Shit! Where the hell did this power come from?"
Upon closer look, she saw noticeable changes in Naruto's appearance, including his right glowing red eye. "He's using a Dragon Drive?"
Mina appeared behind Naruto and was planning to freeze him solid. She didn't expect Naruto to phase through her like a ghost until he was positioned behind her and pushed her so that she ended up touching Kisara as her magic activated, freezing her solid in a split second. "Kisara!" She yelled.
From behind, Naruto spin kicked her with his legs imbued with magic. She slammed into the ice pillar, breaking it and setting Kisara free with the price of her face being cut and her body bruised.
"Mina, are you okay?"
"Yeah, I'm fine."
"Shift!"
As they helped each other up, Naruto appeared between them and separated the both of them by kicking them both in the stomach before disappearing and reappearing in front of Mina.
"Bastard!" Summoning an ice dagger, she went for Naruto's jugular, only to have both her arms locked as a mass of darkness shot from his wounds and covered her hands. He then punched her hard in the stomach, while at the same time releasing more magic, creating an explosive force that made her to hack blood.
Kisara turned and saw the blood around her. "Mina!"
She wiped the blood and yelled. "Idiot, don't let your guard down!"
Naruto appeared behind her and swung Ascalon, releasing a dark wave that was frozen and destroyed by Mina. "I won't let you touch her."
Naruto scowled and appeared behind her with Ascalon, catching her by surprise. "You are the biggest pain in my ass!" Mina dodged, but was still given a severe gash to the back making her scream in pain.
"Get in front of me!" Kisara yelled.
They pressed their backs to each other and faced the opposite direction to cover one another, leaving no space for Naruto to appear between them again.
"Are you okay?"
"I've certainly been through worse. Dammit, how did he do that? He wasn't just moving fast, it was like he vanished and appeared out of nowhere."
From Kisara's Boosted Gear, Ddraig's voice rang out:
"It's called Dimensional Territory, one of the Reshape Will's abilities. He can bend and travel through space on a whim by moving in and out through the Dimensional Gap."
"I have a bad feeling." Kisara said.
They both looked around waiting for him to appear. But he was nowhere to be found and the both of them were on high alert. As he teleported, his aura disappeared with him and they were having a difficult time finding him.
A second later, they could feel an ominous feeling coming from below them. "He's under u-"
Before they could react, a black puddle like mass with one glowing red dot appeared below them and grabbed onto their legs and started moving, pulling and dragging them by the legs. They reached the end of the room and Naruto started moving up. Both girls had slammed into the wall before being lifted. "What the hell is this?" Mina yelled as he started dragging them up along the walls. Mina pushed the hem of her kimono with an embarrassed look after seeing her panties were showing. "Since when can he turn into his own element?"
Kisara gripped her blade and tried stabbing at the black mass. Before her blade struck the wall, the mass bended its shape to avoid her attack and pulled her up faster. The motion kept her arms flailing and kept her from moving them. As Naruto reached the top, he slowly started to go down, picking up speed with the intent of splattering them against the floor.
"Damn it! I'll just have to freeze him to the wall!" Mina said before touching the surface. In almost in instance, the entire room started to turn completely frozen solid.
Even in shadow form, Naruto would still be encased in dragon ice and had no choice but to eject out the wall, still carrying the two by their legs. He started twirling with the both of them. The two girl's weight gave him the proper momentum for his attack.
"Black Dragon's Waxwing Flash!"
Putting his arms over his shoulders, he threw them with great force, as his arms erupted in darkness.
Falling at eighty-five mph, the both of them slammed into the ground hard. They both managed to regain themselves, but saying they took that attack unscathed was far from an exaggeration.
"Bastard!" She touched the floor and immediately encased the room in ice.
Naruto landed on the ground, only to suddenly lose his balance and fall down. "Shit, she froze the area."
"Now Ice Dragon's Gray Horn!"
A magic circle appeared under Naruto. "Not good."
"Shift!"
He teleported just before a giant horn of ice appeared under him and was close to impaling him.
Appearing in front of Mina, he didn't expect her reflexes to act in time as she sent a sudden slash imbued in deadly sharp ice. Naruto's black tentacles shot from his back and countered her strike. Mina's magic froze it solid and shattered it in an instant.
Mina sent a volley of ice strikes that were blocked by Naruto's dark limbs as his speed matched her own. Eventually, Naruto overwhelmed her and pushed her back with a solid palm thrust to her sides that was infused with magic bursts. Mina went flying and was stopped by Kisara.
"Black Dragon's-" Naruto touched the ground and released a mass of darkness. "Shadow Death Grip."
Naruto's shadow extended and appeared below the two. From it, ethereal, black claws shot out and entangled them, limiting their movements. "What the hell?"
"Take in my darkness, Ascalon." Naruto gripped his swords with both hands and channeled all his power onto the blade. His sword grew several times long, reaching at least a hundred feet long. With one mighty swing, he aimed his blade at the both of them, ready to slice them horizontally in half.
"I can't move!" When she was grabbed, Kisara dropped her sword and was incapable of reaching it. "Fire Dragon's-" Before she could release her roar, a dark hand clasped tight around her throat and clamped her mouth shut.
"Kisara!" Mina yelled seeing the sword coming right towards them. Thanks to her struggling she was able to free her right hand. "I'm not going to die before I get married!" She summoned a large, thick wall of ice, one after another, after another. Naruto's sword struck the ice and sliced through it. However, since the density was so thick, the speed of his sword slowed and eventually stopped.
Mina used her free hand and made several finger gestures. "I'm not done yet."
The ice behind Naruto suddenly shattered into a million pieces. "She can not only summon ice but manipulate it as well." Several tiny icicles formed and zeroed in on Naruto. "So you had something like this up your sleeve!" He summoned two blades and started spinning them fast like a fan, effectively shielding himself from the ice reducing it to mere snow as it flew past him.
"Naruto-san has really gotten strong. It's like he's a different person." Asia said to herself.
"You're mine now." Mina made a finger gesture.
Naruto felt a sudden magic signature and looked up seeing a magic circle appear above him. Another one appeared under his feet. Before he could react, several jagged pieces of ice lined up shot out of the circle. "Ice Dragon's Guillotine Jaws."
"Oh shit!" Naruto went right, moving his left leg over the bottom jaw before it was too high to move. That attack would've cut him in half. Despite dodging, he still felt cold pain shot up through his arm, until he couldn't feel anything.
Asia's eyes widened in horror and she screamed his name pounding on the glass as blood sloshed out of his severed left arm.
"!" Naruto was familiar with losing limbs. He had lost his other arm fighting Riser, and actually lost a chunk of his stomach when he fought Kokabiel. Luckily, he had Asia the phoenix power to save him. If he used his Sacred Gear to heal or even grow a new arm, he would've delayed the time it would've taken before he could use his armor again. All he could do was bare the pain, which was much easier said than done.
Losing his arm costed him his focus as Kisara and Mina were released from his shadow binds.
Mina wolf whistled. "He was able to avoid that in that split second and only lost his arm? I actually underestimated him."
"It's better this way," Kisara told her as she walked towards Naruto, who was kneeling on the ground with his sword as a crutch. "Since I want to be the one to kill him."
"Please stop it!" Asia yelled. "He's really going to die!"
"First you froze me solid then you take my arm. You're one pain in the ass you know that." Naruto stifled with a grin.
"Do you really think you're in any position to be talking smart like that?" Mina asked.
"You made a mistake messing with me little girl!" Kisara and Mina were suddenly blinded by an intense burst of dark light. "I'll eat you alive!"
"What the hell, he can still fight?" Mina covered her eyes and squinted trying to see.
"Be ready for whatever he throws." Kisara readied her sword. The light disappeared, and she uncovered her eyes.
However, she wished she could've kept them closed.
Suddenly, Kisara heard a weak, hoarse voice. "Kis-Kisara,"
She looked to her right and widened her eyes. Mina was in a horrible state that made Kisara scream in horror. She was missing her left arm as well as her right leg, a chunk of her right side and even the left side of her face was gone, looked as if it was ripped or even bit off. She was twitching, and was barely breathing.
Kisara casted away her cold heart and kneeled next to her hugging her head. "Sweetie, baby, stay with me! Dear god, oh god!" She was crying, screaming and praying. "Don't die, don't die!"
"Kisara, I...can't see." Mina whispered.
"Mina, save your strength! We'll get you to the doctor, hang in there!"
Kisara gave her soft kiss and hugged her head trying to soothe her. "Please, just hang in there." She said quietly.
Kisara suddenly opened her eyes and realized that Mina was gone. "Mina?" She looked up and saw something that wasn't there before.
It was a creature twenty meters tall with a body made completely of darkness. Its shape was similar to a human man with crow wings and red eyes. It had the lower body of a dragon. "What the hell is that?"
He opened his maw, releasing black steam before he let out a deafening roar that paralyzed her, causing her hairs to stand on end. "Where did that thing come from?" Kisara widened her eyes when she noticed that there was something in its giant, meaty hands. To be specific, someone. "No." She muttered.
The creature held Mina in its fingers and dangled her by her one good leg. "No please, anyone, but not her!" Kisara stood up and ran towards her, but it was like no matter how fast she ran, she never moved from place to place.
The monster dangled Mina over his mouth and opened wide, revealing several long, spiny, sharp teeth that was innumerable. Mina's good arm was the first to go, next was her last leg. Her screaming was blood curdled and Kisara couldn't bare it. She wanted to throw up, but couldn't. She couldn't stop watching as he chewed her limbs. "Please stop!"
The creature held her on her side and lowered her towards his mouth. Kisara was making sounds that couldn't be distinguished from screaming or crying. "I'm begging you."
Before Mina was killed in between the teeth of the creature, she looked at Kisara with one smile before mouthing her final words. "I'll always love you."
"Stop it, stop it, STOP IT!"
First came the sick crunching, as the creature chewed, he spitted out a piece of her that fell near Kisara. It was Mina's hand with her engagement ring soaked in blood.
"AAAHHHH!"
Asia supported Naruto as they managed to get as far away from Kisara and Mina. Naruto was physically at his limit, and was wobbling a majority of the way. Ascalon was in his right hand, the blade glowed a dim purple. Wrapped in cloth cradled in Asia's arm was Naruto's severed arm. They had to find somewhere private to heal it.
"This way, in here." Using his senses to keep an eye out for people, they stopped at the first unlocked room and Naruto flopped to the ground in relief before stifling, trying to maintain his focus.
"Are you okay, Naruto-san?" Asia kneeled down and placed her hand on his cheek, shocked at how cold and clammy his face was starting to become. "You lost a lot of blood. You need rest."
"I can't, or else the illusions going to wear off."
When Naruto lost his arm, he knew he couldn't fight or use his magic since he couldn't focus on anything but trying not to die. In a last ditch effort, he activated Excalibur Nightmare and sent Mina and Kisara into an illusion hoping to distract them. He remembered how horrific it was when he was victim to it and hoped that whatever they saw would give them enough time. If he stopped now or if God forbid they could see through the illusion, it wouldn't take long for Kisara to hunt him. He felt a sudden hot pain in his throat and hacked a large amount of blood. "Asia, please put my arm back before I pass out from shock."
Asia did without a moment to hesitate and held his arm gently as her sacred gear did its magic. "I'm so pathetic," He said to himself visibly upset. "All of this happened because I allowed myself to be kidnapped."
"Don't talk like that. You were outnumbered two-to-one." She wrapped her arms in an attempt to comfort him. "If anything, I'm the one who's pathetic. I'm weak, I can't fight, and I always end up saved in the end."
"That's not true." Despite everything that happened, Asia was still able to make him smile. It was one of the things he loved about her. "If it wasn't for you I would've been dead a long time ago."
Asia nodded and closed her eyes before leaning down. Her lips pressed against Naruto and surprised him. Compared to Rias and Kiria, who were passionate, and even Akeno's and Xenovia who were skilled with tongue, Asia's were just like her, soft and gentle that filled him with bliss. They separated soon after she was done finishing up with his arm. "How does it feel?"
"Amazing." Naruto snapped out of his daze and attempted to clench his fist and was able to slightly regain some feel. "It's still numb, but it should do."
Naruto looked toward Ascalon to make sure Nightmare was still in effect. "We should look for the others while they're distracted, who were you with?"
"We all got separated." Asia said. "I remember Akeno-san and Gasper-kun came to look for you with three others."
"I saw Reya-san with Momo-san and Ruruko-san. They're with Genshirou-kun right now."
"I hope they're alright."
"Knowing those two, they would've sensed my magic and found me a long time ago." Even if the ship was big, it wouldn't have taken long for them to find him especially since he kept releasing his power earlier. Naruto stood up shakily and tried to gain his footing. "They might be facing an enemy, we should go."
"Absolutely not. You still haven't recovered and you're still having trouble standing." Asia resumed healing him for any wounds she might've missed. "Mina-san, told me that you did horrible things, that you killed countless people. I don't know whether it's true or not. To be honest, I don't want to believe any of it. I know you, and I know that you'd sooner throw away your life for people that you care for rather than take others' lives. It's one of the things I love about you."
"The thing is Asia, you don't truly know me. The me that even I don't know. Asia, what if what they're saying is true?" Naruto asked. "Earlier, she said my name was Kagari, and that I was her brother. She said I killed people with a smile on my face, hearing them scream." Naruto buried his hands in his sleeve and scowled, trying to keep himself from crying. "I'm afraid that I really did kill innocent people. What if I'm not really the Naruto you know, but deep down, is nothing more than a persona I picked up when I lost my memories? What if the real me is a true monster who doesn't deserve forgiveness?"
Asia smiled and wrapped her arms around his head, hugging him close and stroking his hair trying to console him. "I really don't know how to answer that question. You confessed to me that you were afraid of becoming sadistic and a killer. You cried for me when I died. That part of you that wants forgiveness and weeps for others will always be a part of who you are. When I was a little girl, the nuns always told us, "If you ever find yourself lost within a dark place, simply follow the compass within your heart, and the Lord's hand will always be there to guide your heart."
"Asia, thank you."
Akeno and Gasper weren't doing well against Style's dragon force. They knew their top fighters would be tough, but to them, the rampaging, bloodthirsty monster throwing them around like child's play was a completely other force of nature.
He was ruthless when he threw them like fastballs to where they crashed violently to the walls.
He was merciless with his bone crushing punches and kicks that made them writhe in agony.
To top it, he was insane as he simply laughed at their pain and suffering.
"Akeno-san, it hurts." Gasper was bleeding everywhere from his head to his arms. It wouldn't surprising if his whole body was covered in bruises. Despite his injuries, he kept standing despite how much his legs wanted to crumble.
Styles walked up to him and grabbed him by the throat with his enlarged hands, holding him up by his neck. "You know, the more you get up, the more you piss me off."
Despite using the rook trait of her evil piece to cushion the blows, Akeno was at her limit. Her entire back was bruised brown and blood started coming out of her head and running down her legs. Neither she nor Gasper were proficient in close combat, and they were far out of their comfort zones.
However, seeing Gasper in an even worse state than she was, was too much for her to bare any longer. She shakenly stood up and gripped her pained right arm. "Please I'm begging you, do what you want to me, but please don't hurt him anymore."
Styles looked at her with a grin. "Oh, is that right?" He turned back to Gasper and tightened his grip, choking every bit of air from Gasper's face. His skin started turning blue, his eyes began to water, and he struggled needlessly despite the fact he knew it would do nothing. "I'll give you a countdown from five to strip. Everything better be off or I break his neck. Ready, 5...4..."
Akeno widened her eyes at such a demand and without a choice, immediately used magic to make her clothes vanish. Bare and covering what she could, she looked down with a disgusted look. "Are you satisfied?"
"3...2-"
Akeno was confused as to why he kept counting. "I did what you said!"
"I know..." Styles looked at her and grinned. "Funny thing about me is, I lie too much. 1"
"Gasper-kun!"
"Black Dragon's Flash Blossom."
Before Style's muscles could squeeze the life out of Gasper, a mass of black appeared out of nowhere holding a katana. Styles held a surprised look as his arm was separated from his body. "Huh?" For the first time, he felt a burning pain in his arm and howled out.
A piece of cloth draped over Akeno and she was quick to cover herself with the jacket that was thrown at her.
"Akeno-san!" She turned and saw Asia running towards her. "Asia-chan?"
"Sorry for the wait." The mass of black took human shape took hold of Gasper and jumped back towards the two. The darkness flowed to the ground and resumed its state as Naruto's shadow. "Naruto-chan!" Akeno wrapped her arms around him and hugged him tight. He looked around and noticed the amount of bodies lying around. "What the hell happened here? Are you two alright?"
"Yeah, I'm fine, but Gasper-kun," The both of them looked and saw that Asia was already healing him as he was trying to catch his breath.
Gasper's eyes struggled open and he tried to sit up, but was held down by Asia. "Is Akeno-san, alright?"
"I'm fine, Gasper-kun." Akeno gave him a reassuring smile. "You did well, thank you for protecting me."
"Thank goodness." His eyes had shut, and his body slacked.
"Gasper-kun, don't tell me he-"
"He has a pulse, but it's weak, especially with all these injuries." Asia told them. "Akeno-san, you're hurt too, let me heal you."
Styles picked up his severed arm and placed it near the stub. In less than a second, he was able to reattach and regain feeling back into it. "He caught me by surprise. That actually kind of hurt." Despite the fact he could regenerate this way, he couldn't help but be incredibly pissed off. "You bastard!" Naruto suddenly sensed an intense amount of bloodlust that rivaled the one Kisara gave off earlier. It was more raw and barbaric, as if all he could think about was murder.
"Naruto-san, behind you!" Asia yelled.
He held his sword in front of him and blocked Style's strike. Looking at the scaly dark red creature that resembled a human but with demon eyes and teeth, Naruto's eyes widened in surprise. "What is this guy, and why the hell does he reek like blood?"
Style's sent a barrage of punches that were blocked with no effort by Naruto's blade. Naruto lunged and gripped his face, tightening his fingers, he released a burst of darkness point blank and pushed him back. "Black Dragon's Strike Grip!"
Styles skidded a distance away from them and gripped his face in pain. "Damn it!"
"I'm going to take a guess and say you're one of the eight commanders?" Naruto asked.
"I'm the third commander, Blood Dragon Slayer, the names Kaidzu Styles," Styles although extremely pissed off took a second and sniffed the air. "Your scent, holy crap you really are Kisara's brother. You're the famous Kagari Akuro that she never shuts up about."
"Shut up!" Naruto yelled out and swung Ascalon. Styles created a blade of blood running from his arm and blocked Naruto's swing. "What the hell, a Dragon Slayer that can control his blood?"
[Impossible, Blood Dragons are a rare and dangerous species. They'll eat and kill anything and were extremely violent in nature. They should've been extinct for centuries.]
Styles nicked the palm of his hand and a net of blood shot out and covered his entire fist before crystalizing it. "Blood Dragon's Iron Fist!"
"Black Dragon's Spiral Jaw!"
Naruto's kick clashed with Style's fist as it released a blood red aura. The overwhelming power of the two clashing with each other sent a shockwave that shook the room. Akeno held fear in her eyes as she could feel the intense aura of the two. "I know it's Naruto-chan fighting, but why does this power, feel so evil?"
Naruto's ears picked up a rumbling sound coming from Style's body. His instincts took control, and he back flipped from Styles fist and held his sword to his face as a thin spine of blood shot from his chest, aiming for the spot between Naruto's eyes. If he hadn't placed Ascalon to block, he would've been killed in an instant. The spine shot back into Style's stomach and the wound it created closed up immediately. "How the hell did you get your powers if your kind have been dead for a long time?" Naruto asked.
"Unlike you and everyone else in the first generation who learned theirs through actual dragons, I had my own method of obtaining this ability." Styles gripped his chest. "I had a Dragon Lacrima implanted in my heart. Not many people find themselves compatible and would die if they were rejected. I'm a new type of slayer, what you'd call second generation."
"A Dragon Lacrima?" Naruto remembered when Sirzechs gave him a lacrima as a gift, as a way of enhancing his magic. The truth of the matter was he never implanted it because he wasn't sure what it would do to him or if he was even compatible.
"I'm not the only one. Damian and Kisara were also compatible with Lacrima. However, they already learned their magic from dragons and became what's called the third generation. It greatly enhances their magic, and they've even had the ability to enter Dragon Force through will."
Naruto was greatly surprised by that. He was only able to enter Dragon force once by eating and absorbing Excalibur's magic. He looked to his sword wondering if he should do it again.
However, Torafusa was looking out for his well-being.
[The only reason you were able to do that was because you had your dragon powers. If any other Devil tried that, they would die. However, it's fused with Ascalon. The holy and dragon slayer properties within both blades will surely kill you. Besides, I know how to fight a Blood Dragon]
After Torafusa explained, Naruto nodded and turned to Akeno and Asia. "Both of you take Gasper-kun and get out of here. I'll fight this guy and catch up with you when I'm done."
"Right," Asia said.
"Be careful, he has the ability to control people." Akeno yelled. "Watch for when he moves his fingers."
"I got it," Naruto said and turned to Styles who was grinning.
"Rakai!" Asia summoned Rakai, who appeared medium size, about as big as a horse. "Please carry Gasper-kun." Asia and Akeno lifted Gasper and supported him on Rakai's back as he ran out of here.
"I won't let you leave alive." Style's pointed his finger and aimed at them. Naruto saw something shoot out and intercepted it, knocking it away from its trajectory. "You're fighting me now!" Naruto disappeared and reappeared in front of Styles, where he delivered a slash to his chest that deeply gashed him.
However, Torafusa explained.
[Against a Blood Dragon, that's not going to work]
Despite the rather fatal cut to his chest, Style's gave it no mine. "Let me show what you're up against." Style removed his jacket and the torn remains on his shirt, revealing a somewhat toned body. Lying in the middle was the giant cut Naruto gave him, in under seconds the wound started closing up. Unlike Asia's healing that made it impossible to know you were injured, he was left with a noticeably big scar. "No matter from swords, spears, even bullets. I can't be killed so easily."
"First a Heavenly Dragon, now I have to deal with one who can heal his own wounds. You commanders are a bunch of monsters if you ask me" Naruto wondered. "If Sho or Damian or whatever he's called is their leader, just how powerful is he?"
"I've heard that the Heavenly Dragons were ridiculously strong, with the ability to kill God." Styles held out his hand and pointed his finger. "I think I'll make you my ultimate puppet."
Naruto noticed something shooting out of his fingers. It was tiny and thin, almost like a needle. Connecting between it and Style's finger was a thread so thin that the average person couldn't see it. "So that's how he does it?" Naruto swung his blade and slashed the thread connecting it. For once, Styles found himself surprised and shot out one after another. "Impossible, he can see them?"
Naruto slashed and severed the threads that connected his needle. His eyes and reflexes made this easy until he eventually caught and took a closer look. He kept it clenched between his fingers as the needle started squirming around. Upon closer examination, he noticed the thing had teeth and a worm like body. It smelled like blood. "I think I know how your little trick works." He severed the thread with his claws and tossed it. "Send as many of those things as you want, as long as they don't hit me, you can't control me."
[Blood Dragons can send parasites made of their own blood to control their victims. They used that to make their prey walk into their mouths.]
It made sense why Akeno said he could seemingly control people. The truth to his ability was that he sent these things into the bodies' spine and muscles, as well as certain parts of the brain that controlled motor function and movement. Through finger movements, he could send messages to his parasites and tell them what to make the person do, much like a puppeteer. Not to mention it was so thin that you wouldn't be able to feel it, much like an acupuncture needle. "Must work well on humans and even some devils who don't rely too much on their senses."
"Don't get so cocky you little shit!" Styles was fast moving and broke the distance between him and Naruto in seconds. He nicked both his wrists and formed shorts blades made of blood.
"So, it's a sword fight you want?" Naruto readied himself.
"Are you an idiot? I told you swords don't have any effect on me. You can cut me down but they'll all just fully heal."
[Naruto, he can regenerate in an instant, that tactic isn't going to work]
"I wouldn't say that," Naruto pointed to his chest. Styles, confused, looked at his own and noticed the huge scar that was left. He had a look of shock and scowled. "It didn't fully heal?" He looked at Naruto's blade and now realized a strange power releasing from it. "Shit, I forgot he's using Ascalon."
"Regular swords wouldn't work. I'm not sure about Demon or Holy Swords, if Yuuto or Xenovia fought you, they'd be at a disadvantage. But my Ascalon has the power to kill dragons. It's also infused with my own slaying magic."
Styles gripped his scar as it burned, like it was covered in salt, it caused his incredible discomfort.
'He's right, I can't fully heal from Dragon Slaying magic. I can barely close the wounds, and I can still feel pain.'
Naruto lunged at him with his katana held to the side. "I'll end you!"
"Damn you! I'll destroy your blade!"
Styles blocked with his twin blades and the both of them swung their swords at each other. Despite the high speeds of their swings, they were unable to deal any fatal blows.
They were both observing the other and their style of fighting.
"This guy is fast. But compared to Kisara, he doesn't rely on techniques or a style."
"When it comes to a sword, he and Kisara really are siblings. Both their reaction, speed, and strength are damn near the same. But that sword in unforgiving, I can't be reckless."
[This'll become tedious if we don't kill him. But in order to do that-]
'Don't worry, I have an idea.' Naruto thought.
As they clashed Styles was able to successfully destroy Naruto's katana. As it shattered, the blade disappeared off his hands. Styles cackled. "So much for your fucking blade!" He crouched and lunged fast at Naruto. "Now die!"
"Dragon Sword Technique: Infinite One Sword."
Naruto flew past him with a new katana held out to his side. Styles look of confusion turned to pain as several cuts appeared on his chest and his arms. "What the hell? I thought I destroyed your sword!"
Naruto held out his sword. "My sword has the ability to multiply into any number I want, using the power of Excalibur. What you destroyed was nothing but a dispensable copy."
Naruto didn't want to risk having his blade destroyed while Nightmare was still in effect. Using more than one of the Excalibur's abilities was found to be mentally exhausting. It was for that Naruto felt it would be safer hiding the original in a safe place.
Cuts appeared all over Style's body. Despite closing the wounds, he noticed that they took longer than normal, and that he could feel the pain of regenerating. "I don't like it." He muttered to himself.
"You're not the first person I fought who could regenerate." Naruto thought that if he had Ascalon at the time, perhaps the table would've turned. "Regenerating takes a lot of mental focus. If his thoughts are all over the place, he won't be able to heal right."
"This won't do." Styles placed a fist on his neck and sighed. He looked around at all the bodies of his fallen comrades. "Oh well," He showed his eyes, and Naruto was shocked to see that both of his eyes turned blood red, with his pupils purely dark. "I'll just have to eat."
A blood red aura shook the room, causing Naruto to fly and slam into the wall with a crash. "What is this?"
Styles opened his closed hand revealing a syringe and tossed it aside. "Now then, Dragon Force!" He yelled out howling, clutching his throat as it felt like it was clogged. His body writhed and he opened his mouth revealing a set of incredibly sharp teeth.
Several tentacles, similar to the ones Naruto could use lashed out and grasped the all the bodies in the room. It was then, Naruto watched in horror as he started ripping and tearing at flesh. He started devouring all of the bodies. Naruto's eyes stayed wide as his pupils shook. All he could do was watch as one after another, he started eating people whole. One soldier, who was unconscious, awoke as Styles gripped his head. Seeing the monster in front of him, he yelled out in horror, struggling under. "Styles-sama, please stop!" He looked towards Naruto and held out his hand. "Please, you have to hel-"
"Shut the fuck up." Styles closed his hand around the man's head, cracking it like an egg and devouring it like an anaconda.
A sick, slurping sound made bile run up Naruto's throat as he clamped his mouth. "This guy doesn't even look like a demon."
The drugs Styles used earlier, combined with his natural dragon force clashed. Naruto couldn't think of anything to call him. But if he had to think of one word to describe him, it would've been a monster.
Styles was warped both mind and body. He looked farther from human than before. He had a large horn on the right side of his head, and one growing on the top of his head. he had wings sprouting from his back and through his jacket, as well as a small tail sprouting from his pants. His feet had changed completely as all of his weight was on what used to be his heels. Now his feet had transformed as his toes had fused and formed four dragon like toes, three pointing forward with one pointing off to the also had black spikes jutting from his elbows. The only human skin showing was around his face, which even now looked less than human. His snout was starting to protrude just the slightest bit and his regular teeth were starting to turn into fangs along with his canines.
[Burrow this into your mind Naruto, this is what happens when you overuse Dragon Slayer magic]
"This is the Dragon Slayer's curse?"
The aura he was releasing was insane, filled with bloodlust. It drove dark thoughts into Naruto's mind, a demonic voice started whispering in his head.
CRUSH...MUTILATE...ERADICATE...RAPE...EAT...KILL KILL KILL KILL KILL KILL KILL KILL KILL KILL KILL KILL KILL KILL KILL KILL KILL KILL KILL KILL KILL KILL KILL KILL KILL KILL KILL KILL KILL KILL KILL KILL KILL KILL KILL KILL KILL KILL KILL KILL KILL KILL KILL KILL KILL KILL KILL KILL KILL KILL KILL
Blood formed around styles claws, forming scythe like blades around his finger. "Now die!"
His attacks, his speed, and his raw strength reached levels Naruto couldn't comprehend. His slashes, despite several being blocked by Naruto's sword, was too fast for him to keep up. "His movements...they're so fast and erratic, I don't think even he knows where he's aiming. I can't predict."
"Die die die die die die die die die die! I'll see you in hell, Black Dragon!" He placed a single palm on Naruto's chest once he found an opening and summoned a blood red insignia. "Blood Dragon's Javelin Horn!"
"Shit, I won't be able to dodge in time!" Naruto thought.
"SHIFT!"
A javelin made of blood shot out of the magic circle in an instant, pushing Naruto back several yards. He positioned his feet to keep them balance and gritted his teeth at the end. After a moment or two, he opened his eyes realizing he wasn't in any pain, nor was dead for all he knew.
Styles bared his teeth. "How the fuck are you still alive!? That attack should've drilled your heart a new one!"
Naruto looked down at his chest and saw parts of the chest plate of his dragon armor. "Torafusa, did you do that?"
[Yes, I had to use up the power built up to save you, otherwise that attack would've destroyed your heart. Unfortunately, by doing so, I delayed the time for you to use your Balance Breaker. Forgive me, but I must warn you, I won't be able to do that a second time]
"I was going to subdue him in order to ask him questions. But look at him, all he can think about is bloody murder. If he gets loose he might go after another." Naruto was uncomfortable with the thought of killing ever since he witnessed Deveen at his finest hour. Ever since then, he was afraid to use Grimoire's Legacy since then. "I have to get a grip." Naruto released a black aura from his body, while his left hand released an aura as blood red as Styles. Just like his, it released hostility, malice and evil. "However, I'm going to need help...from both of you."
"What the hell's with that aura?" A bead of sweat dropped from Style's forehead. Despite the aura that was being released, Naruto's was stronger, more overwhelming. The difference between their powers was that Styles released his bloodlust, while Naruto released incredible fear into Styles. "This is the power of a Heavenly Dragon? No, it's something different. Pure evil." Styles crouched like an animal ready to pounce, and lunged, running at speeds so fast that he broke half distance between him and his target in seconds. "Sorry Kisara, but I'm taking this guy's head!"
"Here he comes," Naruto held his sword and closed his eyes as he entered a Zen state of mind. "Now Torafusa, Deveen!"
His gauntlet was summoned, and the gem flashed a blood red light. "SHIFT!"
The aura that Naruto released increased in power, and from his back, Naruto released red and black tentacles to lash at him, while another set of tentacles released arrows made of the same material moving at high velocity, all of which honed in on the frothing demon from all directions. Even with his speed, Styles couldn't avoid it from that close.
"Shit, I can't dodge them, no matter!"
Styles crossed his arms, his skin turned a bright red and became rigged as he hardened his blood. He covered both his arms and his face and braced himself as Naruto's artillery barraged him. A majority of the arrows bounced of his rugged blood armor while the tentacles lashed at him mercilessly, attempting to cut into him. "This is nothing!"
"Damn, he's a lot durable than I thought." Naruto released more and more, his face started growing pale the more he released. Everything he was lashing out was made with both magic and his blood. The more he shot, the more blood he was losing, and apparently all for nothing since he couldn't pierce Style's skin. "I can't keep this up any longer." Soon he had reached his limit and stopped, reeling back what was left of his blood. "Now I'm low on magic and strength, I didn't think this through. Why isn't he attacking?"
Seconds had passed, getting a grasp on his personality, Naruto deduced he wasn't one to waste time.
[Naruto, look]
He did and saw a sight to behold. "He's eating it?"
When Naruto attacked, Styles was able to catch a smell of what he was throwing and widened his eyes. He didn't understand, but the smell was intoxicating and irresistible, almost like Kisara's blood. The blood of a Heavenly Dragon, he's wanted the taste of it, and now the chance was upon him.
He placed the tentacle in his mouth and bit down on it. The taste! It was better than the smell. He devoured, slurped up his blood like ramen. The thing was, Styles couldn't stop. The taste of a Heavenly Dragons blood was extremely addicting. It tasted like pure honey and he couldn't help himself. He lost himself to his instincts and started devouring the tentacle madly while Naruto was horrified at the sight and thought of his blood being eaten. "This guy really isn't human."
Despite the fatigue he was in, he was able to produce a smile. "I got you now."
Naruto took his hand and made a motion as if he was turning a doorknob and squeezed.
As Styles ate, he suddenly felt a grueling pain on the left side of his body. It felt like something busted from the inside and howled in agony. The released tentacle reeled back into Naruto's body and he stood up with his fingers flexed.
"You little bitch, what the hell did you do to me?"
Naruto squeezed again and something else from Styles ruptured. It didn't take him long to figure out. "My organs, how?"
"You should know that gluttony is a rather deadly sin. Especially when you lose control to your hunger." Naruto told him with a confident grin. "You Blood Dragons, control your blood to protect your bodies from wounds. You even harden the blood around your vitals to protect them. I couldn't kill you with an outside attack, so I figured why not kill you from the inside?"
"Bastard." He gritted.
"That stuff you were eating was made from my blood, and my darkness. I was originally trying to pierce you with my element. I needed it inside you. Once you started eating it I knew it was my victory."
"You used your powers to guide your element throughout my body, to find my vitals."
"Just because you're indestructible, doesn't mean you're immortal." Naruto told him. "Right now, I have your kidney, spleen, lungs, and even your heart. The first thing I destroyed was your left kidney. It won't kill you just yet, you still have your other one. But I imagine it's agonizing."
"So what, you're going to kill me?" Styles grinned and looked up at him. "Draco-sama deeply cares for all eight of us. He already has a profound hatred for you, for what you did to Kisara. Imagine how piss he'll be when he finds out you killed me. He's very powerful. He'll make you into dust in a second."
"...I'll take my chances." Naruto racked his brain, wondering whether Styles was capable of holding a conversation. "You said your name was Kaidzu Styles, right?"
"Depends whose asking?" He chuckled. Naruto confirmed he still had a bit of sanity. He just hoped it was enough to make more than just wisecracks.
"I want to ask you a few questions. And you're going to answer them. This is not a request, these are demands. Right now, I have all your organs as my hostage. You refuse to answer, say anything smartass, I will destroy them one at a time. You don't have to worry, Blood Dragons tend to die slowly even after losing a liver or lung. You won't die just yet. You try to attack, I'll take out everything and kill you in an instant."
"And what happens afterwards, you're just going to let me go?" Styles asked sarcastically.
"You'll be taken into custody. You're a terrorist after all." Naruto told him, his eyes displayed a cold demeanor that made Styles sigh. "Fine. Ask away."
"I only have one question...why does Kisara want me dead? What did I do to her?"
"...You're joking, right? What kind of stupid question is that, you've lived with her all the-" Styles stopped after seeing the look Naruto gave him. It was a complicated, painful look, as if he was having a difficult time remembering something and it was bugging him.
It only took a second for Style's to put the pieces together before he busted out in a fit of psychotic laughter. "Oh my fucking God! This is too unreal! You're telling me you don't remember anything?! You have amnesia!? That's hilarious!" Pissed off, Naruto flexed his fingers and destroyed the first organ, his spleen. Styles hacked blood and gave him a violent grin. "You really don't know do you?"
"Answer the damn question!"
Styles looked down. "Fine, here's the short version." He looked up at Naruto, revealing a set of blood red eyes with black people. "Eight years ago, you slaughtered every last person in your hometown, including your own mother, and left your sister to die."
Naruto was so shocked, that he didn't have time to react as Styles held his arm out to the side and summoned his scythe like claws. He swung it and instead of hitting Naruto, impaled himself in the chest, right where his heart was. "I'll sooner die by my own hands, then a weak little shit like you!"
Naruto didn't care for him in the slightest. But Styles was utterly useless to him dead "Wait!" He summoned his sacred gear ready to stop him, but it was far too late.
With a mighty squeeze, he gripped and crushed his own heart. He coughed up blood and stumbled as he felt his life slowly fading away. At first, it had hurt, destroying his own heart. Eventually, he couldn't feel anything. Before he fell to the floor, he uttered his final words. "I'll wait for you in hell, Kagari Akuro."
Naruto looked at Style's corpse. The life was absent from his eyes. Hollow and empty, like the shell of a dead bug absolutely void. The blood from his wounds, along with bits and pieces of his destroyed organs started pooling out.
Naruto was shaken to his core, and it wasn't because he had just saw a man destroy his own heart. He was so close to the truth, and the opportunity slipped right by him. All he knew was one crucial detail. His words still rang in Naruto's head.
'Eight years ago, you slaughtered every last person in your hometown, including your own mother, and left your sister to die.'
"No way...he's got to be lying...right?" Naruto racked his brain. If Styles was in fact lying, what we had to gain. Whether he told the truth or not, he was screwed either way. It explained why he chose to take his own life.
But the name he said, right before he died. He heard Kisara call him that far too many times to chalk it as a coincidence. "Dammit..." He could feel his anger rising. He had come too far to get screwed over like this. His demonic power started increasing little by little.
[Naruto, you need to calm down]
Despite hearing Torafusa's voice, Naruto couldn't hold it in. He couldn't take it, and yelled out with pure wrath in his voice.
"DAMMIT!"
Naruto released enough power to destroy everything within the room, the tables, the food, and Style's body all turned to dust and ash.
