Transmigration. The movement of soul to another body after death. Uzumaki Naruto didn't expect to open his eyes after closing them for final time. But, like always, fate was a real bitch. But fate didn't knew he was unpredictable. Re-Enter Naruto Uzumaki.
Pre-story note: Read the chapter 1 once again, there were quite a few grammatical mistakes. so I corrected them. It is not that important, so if you want you can skip them.
I don't own either Naruto or Highschool DxD.
Transmigration
Chapter: II
Naruto awoke at the sound of alarm on his phone going off. Groaning, he sat up on his bed and quickly grabbed the phone from his nightstand. It was the first time in a while that he was waking this early. 5.00 to be exact. Not even back in Konoha did he wake up this early. Of course, back then, other than his ninja career, he didn't have many responsibilities.
But now...
Groaning some more, he got out of bed and stretched out his arms, raising them high in air, feeling his muscles pop.
In order to regain some physical skills, Naruto had decided to get some training in the morning. The training consisted of him doing some push-ups, sit-ups and leg raises. After completing that he left his house and entered his neighbour's. He had been given the key of house by his friend. He stood in front of door and knocked. He then heard some shuffling, groans and a loud thump. The door opened, and a teen skin to zombie came out.
"Hey Naruto." Greeted the boy, while yawning loudly and stretching.
"Hey Issei." Naruto calmly greeted back.
Now all of this started a day after he came from hospital.
Flashback
After his morning physical exercises, Naruto wiped the sweat from his body with a towel and then settled down on the floor to meditate. After coming house, which was close to a mansion, Rei showed his room and left the house for some work. His room was clean, and was a lot bigger than this apartment in Konoha. He had thoroughly abused Shadow Clones to get knowledge of this world. Well at least how much was given, as there was no information about other presences.
He closed his eyes and breathed in, taking in the world around him. He became aware of his house first. Then his became to the surrounding trees, to a breeze ruffling them. Breathing out he became aware of the life force around him, and arrived at a conclusion. The Nature Chakra was tainted. It was, maybe, due to the amount of negativity present in the Church, as they called the buildings. There were other tainted presence near school, but they didn't release negativity though.
It wasn't this Nature Chakra that he had learnt to utilize in his Sage Mode. But by practicing the same way, he could use it. Though Naruto never underestimated his abilities, it had taken many years for him to realise his own limitations. After his Sage training and his experience at the waterfall of the truth, he had gained better understanding of himself, his strengths and weaknesses. The obnoxious over-confidence of his youth had primarily been a product of his youthful ignorance and an unconscious rejection of the limitations placed upon him by others, and was eventually overcome by training and experience.
Naruto breathed in again and turned focus from the external world to the internal world. He mentally sank down into glowing energy swirling just beneath his belly button, allowing his mind to become buoyant as it was passively carried throughout the body like a leaf in a stream. His mind flew up along the spine, swirling around his heart and lungs before shooting up to his brain, then flowing in each in arm.
Once Naruto felt had a complete grasp of his chakra he slowly began to exert his will upon it. He made a tendril of chakra from the main flow and guided it to the palm of his both hands. Bringing his two hands together in a prayer gesture, Naruto began to pulse chakra between them. When the flow was stable, Naruto began to slowly separate his hand whilst continuously to toss the chakra pulse from one hand to another. This physical manifestation of chakra was the product of thousands of shadow clones' of chakra exercises. There were many other shadow clones carrying out same exercises or trying to control his chakra affinities.
After getting Six Path Sage Mode from the Super-gramps, Naruto had almost all chakra affinities, that is wind, lightning, fire, water, earth , boil, lava, magnet, Yin, Yang, Yin-Yang release. He had only started wind style only succeeding in cutting a small part of leaf. As for the other, he hadn't even tried them. Yin and Yang release, well... he wasn't gonna do anything about it. Because it would take months to even get smallest reactions.
There was another problem. He didn't have many jutsu besides Rasengan, Rasenshuriken and their variants. So he had to learn to control elements in their raw forms. And after that he would make any ninjutsu with it.
So lost in his thoughts, Naruto almost didn't heard the door knocking. Seeing this, he let the chakra ball in his hand dissipate and released the sage mode. Opening the door, he saw a rather dishevelled teen, having brown hair and eyes. He was wearing simple attire, a white T-shirt which had seen better days and a pair of blue jeans. There were bags under his eyes.
'There's something bothering him.' Deduced Naruto.
Well, no shit Sherlock!
"Uhm... hi I guess?" greeted the boy awkwardly, raising his left hand to rub back of his head and his right to wave at Naruto.
"Do I know you?" Naruto asked bluntly with an raised eyebrow. It was better being rude than being awkward...at least to him.
"Yes or no, I guess." Again the boy, rubbed the back of his head. "I am Issei Hyoudou. I am your neighbour and your friend. Can I come in?"
Issei Hyoudou was a 17 years old high school student of an average height with short spiky brown hair, with short locks of hair behind his head and light brown eyes. He wore the same standard academy uniform as everybody who went to Kuoh Academy, though he also wore red undershirt and blue white sneakers. He was overall a below average student in everything .
Issei was a ignorant, self-centered, arrogant boy. Well you can ignore these things as every teenager had been in that stage. But the thing you can't ignore was his ongoing perverted nature. He often made lecherous fantasies, and was utterly obsessed with women's breasts and having his own harem.
This had caused him to be instantly labelled as a pervert among the girls of Kuoh Academy and has gained him notoriety for being one of the members of Kuoh Academy's Perverted Trio, along with his other two friends: Mohotama and Matsuda.
"So you are saying that I am your friend."
"Yes."
"And you were present with me in the accident. Speaking of it, what actually happened there?"
"Yes and a car slammed into us, you being a heroic bastard pushed me to the side and took full damage." Explained Issei with a sagely nod, though it was more of a drunkard nodding.
"Well sorry about that. I should have stand there and watch it slamming into you and making you spend a month or two in hospital." Said Naruto sarcastically. "Well back to the topic, there are three supernatural factions."
"Correct" the boy nodded.
"And due to the near death experience you awakened a power that was inside you. And it is a dragon."
"Yeah that's the gist of it." Issei nodded.
Sure enough, there was a red, claw-shaped gauntlet with yellow accents and green inscriptions, manifested on his left arm. "You both realize that I am here. Right?"
And just like that he was ignored.
"And there are many threats from Devils, Angels, Fallen Angels as they all want the Boosted gear." Said Issei.
"what the hell is this boosted gear." Naruto asked with a raised eyebrow.
"Well I am boosted gear. My name is Draig. I am one of the fourteen Longinus-" Draig started, only to be interrupted.
"What is Longinus?" Asked Issei.
"Hey! Hold on a minute! You mean to say that you don't know what is Longinus?" asked Naruto disbelievingly.
"Well, no" Issei said.
"Are you saying that you don't even know about the power that's inside of you." Asked Naruto incredulously.
"Well, sorry that I don't know about that." Issei bit back. "I was trying to survive, trying to gain some power and utterly failing. Why would I need some useless information. Do you know because of this I haven't slept yet. And I haven't masturbated in two weeks even once."
Naruto just stared at Issei disgustingly. Why I am always surrounded by perverts?
"Back to the topic, what exactly is a Longinus and a sacred gear Drag?"
Draig, who was silently observing, answered to Naruto. "First of all, my name is Draig not 'drag'. Sacred Gear are with powerful abilities given to human by God. A Longinus are the original top fourteen sacred gears created by god with potential to kill gods."
This information stunned both of them. A power to kill gods. Suddenly Naruto's mind kicked in, "Wait Gods, meaning more than one."
The jewel of the gauntlet glowed and the dragon spoke, "Yes, there are more than one god. As each pantheon has their own gods. The Biblical Faction-which consists of Devils, Angels, Fallen Angel-have the Biblical God."
For a moment no one spoke, Naruto and Issei trying to absorb the information and Draig giving them time. Naruto couldn't wrap his mind around it. There were power to kill a god, then one can kill him too. And right now, it was easy to do it. He has to regain his power quickly. Looking at Issei, the boy too had to train. Even an academy student could make him eat dirt. His body was undeveloped, though that wasn't his fault as no told him about his power.
"Well, not that I am grateful why are you telling me this Issei? Even after knowing that I had amnesia." Naruto asked. Why would he do that?
"Even after amnesia I trust you and you saved even saved my life. But most importantly I am your friend and you are mine." Said Issei with a grin.
For a moment Naruto's eyes widened as he saw a silhouette of himself.
"Because I am your only friend."
He shook his head gave a grin to his friend and held a fist in front of Issei. "So let's both get stronger. Right?"
"Right." Issei nodded and bumped his fist. But next second a thought came to him. "Hey what do you mean by both of us?"
"Nothing Issei, nothing." Dodged the bullet, at least for now. "Anyway what's your ability Draig?"
"Well I can double the power of host at every ten seconds without limit until the host reaches its limit."
Naruto rubbed his chin and asked, "Which power? Physical or...whatever energy you have?
"Both. Physical and Magic."
"What is the weakness?" Asked Naruto.
Issei, however, was annoyed. "How do you know, there is a weakness?"
"Even the strongest of opponents always has a weakness." Naruto recited, it was a quote by Itachi. 'Except Madara. He doesn't have any weakness.'
Thinking about it, the only weakness Naruto could think was his arrogance. But it was rightfully so, seeing the power he had. But the man didn't see the betrayal coming from zetsu. Thinking about zetsu, Naruto's mind soured. Thankfully Issei was looking down at his hand.
"That's right I do have a weakness." Naruto sent a smug look towards Issei. "My Boost ability drains the stamina of host. And right now its miracle that I am still activated."
So, stamina for magic. Naruto didn't know any magic. But he could train his body, increase the boy's speed, endurance and strength. Suddenly Naruto got an idea. He snapped his fingers and said, "From now on you will train with me everyday." Naruto smiled sadistically. Many ideas filtering through his mind.
"You know what...
-oOo-
...I really hate you."
"I know!" Naruto exclaimed cheerfully.
Right now, both of them were running around the town. As Naruto couldn't help Issei in magic, He decided he could at least train him physically. There routine was simple.
Wake up at 6 a.m.
Run around the city
Perform 50 sit-ups
Then climb the hill with a boulder on the back.
Perform 50 push-ups.
Climb down same way.
At first, Issei couldn't perform even run around the city. After day by day the amount increased, there was also a Resistance Seal on their biceps. Currently Naruto's level was 2, and Issei's was Level 1. In sage mode, Naruto could feel some power in Issei, increasing day-by-day. If this magic was anything like Chakra, then there should be elemental magic as well.
Speaking of his Chakra, Naruto had gotten the wind down and now was training in refining it. He could now slice boulder easily. There was no waterfall in the area to further train in wind. So he switched to the lightning. Lightning would be harder than before as Naruto was now aligned with the wind. He didn't started training in Rasengan or any other jutsus. As he wanted to master the basics first. There was still no sign of Kurama.
So lost in thoughts, he didn't even notice that they were in forest on the way of hill. The forest was lush green. The grass was crispy under their feet. They were both standing in a clearing, trees surrounding them, as Naruto wanted to try something new. He looked towards Issei only to find him drenched in sweat, and panting like a dog. Snapping back to reality Naruto said, "Do you even know, why are you taking deep breaths?"
Issei said nothing, only gulping air like a fish taken out of water. Whatever Naruto had done to increase the weight, it had been difficult for him to perform the activities which he could do without breaking sweat.
Naruto shook his head in amusement. Of course Issei couldn't answer as he had never been to the mountains. It was one of useful things that academy actually taught to the students. The trick was to take slow and deep breaths. It decreases the heart beat, this decreased the need of oxygen level. He wasn't going to give that trick away, mainly for amusement, so Issei had to do it the hard way. But he could at least give a tip. "Because we are on a high altitude, the air is thin here. So you have to take deep breaths as you are not used to the surroundings."
Issei just nodded, trying to control himself. S-so what are we...hah... gonna do today?"
"We, or rather you, are going to try to use the magic. As they have increased you need to learn to control it." Issei's magic reserves were at least far better than a week before. If measuring by Shinobi standards, his reserves were mid-genin level.
"So how are we going to that?" asked Issei as he took deep breath.
Instead of saying, Naruto just walked towards trees and motioned Issei to come. Crouching, Naruto picked up two leaves, one for Issei and another for him. "Now we will find your elemental affinity. As I have wind affinity..." He channelled chakra in the leaf. Suddenly the leaf was split in half. "The leaf will be split in wind. If its fire, then leaf will catch on fire. Lightning, then wrinkle. Water, then damp. If its Earth, leaf turns dirt and crumble away. Now this exercise will serve two purposes. One," His held his index finger. "It will help in finding your element your aligned with. Two," He raised his middle finger. "It will help you to control the magic output."
How did Naruto knew this? Well this was simple. Chakra is a life source for him, if he run out of it, he will die. Magic on the other hand, wasn't the same. If you run out of magic reserve, you will be knocked unconscious or will be fatigued and unable to move. But at the starting point, both were a form of energy inside user. And energy can neither be created nor destroyed, but it can be manipulated.
Issei, who held a leaf in his right hand, grumbled, "You still haven't told me, how do you know all of these?"
"Focus Issei."
"Yeah, yeah." Said Issei dismissively.
Naruto twitched. He produced a wooden stick out of nowhere and hit him on his head.
"Ouch! What the fuck Naruto?!" cried out Issei as he rubbed the sore spot.
"This," he waved his stick around. "will keep you motivated. If you can't get the exercise done in ten minutes. Welllllllll, let's just hope you don't." He smiled sadistically.
Issei immediately began to concentrate in fear of getting beating. Five minutes went. Nothing happened. Naruto just stood before him with his arm folded, studying him.
Issei sighed dejectedly, "Nothing's happening."
Naruto twitched in anger. This brat! "Nothing's happening, huh. If you can't even complete a small exercise, you should GIVE UP!" roared Naruto. "What was your dream?! Yeah, Becoming a Harem King!" Naruto mocked. "You can't even get a small exercise done and you want to become a Harem King. It feels like I am WASTING my time on you. If you think the world revolves around you, just because you have power to kill the god, then you are WRONG. Power is nothing without control."
Naruto said nothing more. He turned his back and began to walk back to home. It was harsh, but cold truth. He ignored the thump sound of body falling and dropping of water.
Issei just knelt on his knees and hands. He even didn't notice the tears that began to flow down from his eyes.
"You can never achieve anything in your life."
More tears began to flow. A green energy appeared on his left hand but he ignored it.
"You are nothing but a filthy pervert who only loves breasts."
Images of people who discouraged him began to flash in his mind. His hand was now completely covered in green energy. The red gauntlet appeared on his left hand.
"You can't even get a small exercise done and you want to become a Harem King. It feels like I am wasting my time on you."
[Boost]
"If you think the world revolves around you, just because you have power to kill the god, then you are wrong."
[Boost] [Boost]
"Power is nothing without control."
[Boost] [Boost] [Boost]
'I didn't had a goal until a few days ago. I always said, I wanted to become Harem King. I wanted to be popular. I wanted to be unique. No one wanted to be my friend because I wasn't famous.'
Flashes of people who rejected him began to appear in his mind.
[Boost] [Boost] [Boost] [Boost]
'Not just an average guy. So I started to become a pervert. I got famous, not in a good light, but it still counts. And now, I thought I had the chance to be unique, to be famous. But it is gone now. But now I refuse to give up. I WILL NEVER GIVE UP!'
[BOOST]
"Aaaargh" Issei roared and The boosted Gear flowed brightly before the light dissipated. Looking at his right hand, Issei saw the leaf was caught in fire.
He gulped air like fish out of water. He frantically looked for Naruto and called out. "Naruto!"
"Yes Issei." A voice came from behind. And let it be known that Issei never shrieked womanly.
But Issei didn't even cared about it. The only thing was in his mind was his victory. "I completed the exercise. "Woohoo!"
But his victory was short lived.
"Now Issei, if I was an enemy I would have slit your throat by now."
"Eh-h what do you mean?" Issei asked.
"Now you have to repeat the exercise until you can do it instantly."
"W-what?
"Now get to it. We only have one week left." Naruto smiled sadistically as he raised his stick high in the air.
"N-no don't do-OUCH!"
"Now get to it."
"I seriously hate you Naruto!"
"I know!"
It was just a normal day for them, well...as normal as it could be to them. In the hype, both of them ignored the Draig...Again.
-The End-
Jutsu:
Fuinjutsu: Resistance Seal :-The user draws the seal on him/her which puts added weight on the body. It has 100 levels. Every level increases a third of its previous weight. The keyed user can only release the seal. The seal can be released by saying 'Release.'
Chapter notes
1. Before you start ranting about, "How canon Naruto is dumb, he can't make jutsus." Now I have two reasons for this and both are reasonable. First, When Naruto was given Six Path Sage Mode, he had complete understanding of the chakra, chakra nature. Second, who said it is a Canon Naruto?
Author notes:Well, it took me quite time to complete this whole chapter. I had 3 drafts, out of I chose this route instead of going to the introduction. It would have been boring that way. And after writing 75% of the story. It suddenly was deleted by me. Well I had write again that's why it took more time. Still I will be trying to maintain the schedule of 1 week.
About Issei, I think many writers ignore him. But I wanted him to be somewhat strong. And about having some dark thoughts, I think it's much better story than the canon as they have shown Issei to have his perverted nature after meeting with an old man. I am somewhat unsatisfied with the chapter as I quite can't write it properly. English is my third language. So it's very difficult to write without grammatical mistakes. Maybe later I will try to rewrite.
So review, even if it is a critic.
