Chapter 1
It's been 15 years since the end of the Fourth Great Ninja War. Peace finally held strong, Considering the last war, everyone began to hate the idea of conflict, because of this the Shinobi and Samurai have seen dwindling numbers of people choosing their professions. Civilization has lost interest in the idea of ninja; Fighting to the death, killing other people for your nation, it just doesn't have the appeal nor necessity it used to have. For these reasons, the end of the Shinobi era has begun.
But let it be known, no one ever said that was a bad thing
Technology has advanced to what some people are calling the 'modern era' because of this the influence of Shinobi has reduced to the point that it will lead to their extinction.
The hidden villages know this yet, they are not angry or bitter that they will disappear from the world, No they take pride in the fact they were Shinobi and they took part in creating this peace. Their era might be over, but they will gladly lay down their lives for this new world.
However, 1 human and 9 beasts will make sure the Shinobi world will die with them, after all his predecessor gave the world chakra. So it's only fair Naruto gets to take it away.
"So, Can we do it?"
"Heh, you underestimate us brat,"
Naruto exhaled "Alright, together then,"
The 9 beings nodded "Together."
"Saṃsāra-Virus-of-the-divine."
This Jutsu they created effectively targets the host chakra system, destroying it but not killing the host. After every living being on earth is free from chakra, the virus that was collecting the chakra will use it to create 11 individuals who he named 'the Primordals'
These 'Primordials' will rule over the earth after he's gone, hopefully creating peace.
"Uh Naruto, something went wrong,"
"WHAT!?"
"Calm down, nothing went wrong with the virus but when we performed the Jutsu we… merged?"
Matatabi decided it would be a good time to speak up "What do you mean merged?"
Kurama nodded, somewhat confused himself. "It's hard to explain it's like we're all gears in a clock, we all have our individuality and everything, but we're part of one larger being with Naruto at the head,"
'Wait wait wait' Naruto said this was all going way too fast for him. "What do you mean 'one larger being' I'm still human, right?"
…
"Right?" Naruto asked a little desperate
Kurama shook his head "I'm sorry Naruto, but no I would say your closer to one of those 'primordials' the virus is creating"
Tears started falling from Naruto's face "No"
Shukaku had enough with his whining, "Oh get over yourself, you think we want to be stuck like this either? NO, but we're not complaining and I don't feel like listing to your moping for eternity,"
"SHUKAKU!" kurama roared
"No Kurama he's right we're going to live for eternity, and I don't want to spend that entire time crying." Naruto stated as he looked at the other silent Bijuu.
"What I want to know is if you guys are okay with this?"
Gyuki sighed "Not really, but I'm just glad we didn't get stuck with B,"
The other tailed beast all gave their own opinion, most of them feeling more or less the same as Gyuki
Naruto inhaled "Look, I know I may never make this up to you guys, I was the one who pushed to make the virus. But the least I can do is make you each custom living spaces in my mindscape,"
So one by one each of the tailed beasts told him what they want the living areas to be,
Shukaku wanted a dessert with lots of animals to kill, (Naruto wouldn't make him humans)
Matatabi wanted a beach weirdly enough,
Isobu wanted a lake,
Son Goku a jungle,
Kokuo wanted endless planes for her to go running,
Saiken a swamp,
Gyuki a mountain lake,
and finally Kurama wanted a forest with lots of animals for him to go hunting.
"So Kurama you said I'm a primordial?"
Shukaku interrupted excitedly "Ooh ooh! Since you're a primordial, you have to have a cool title like… CHAOS,"
Naruto almost facepalmed "Shukaku I'm not calling myself Chaos,"
Kurama smirked "I like it."
"Me too,"
"Me three,"
"Same,"
"Yeah,"
"Hmm,"
"Yup,"
Naruto actually facepalmed this time "We're not doing this"
Kurama smirked "We The tailed beast's name you, Naruto Uzumaki, the primordial Chaos,"
The blond sighed "Yeah, yeah whatever I'm leaving, you guys have fun."
After the primordial left, Gyuki turned to the fox "Hmm, well at least we can enjoy more of his company. I don't know how I would handle it if I saw him grow old and pass like we did father and Asura," Gyuki told the fox.
"If I'm being honest, I prefer it this way," Kurama responded, "Seeing my best friend die, the one who cured me of my hatred is not something I want to witness."
With that said, both the Hachibi and Kyuubi fell into relative silence. Both wondering what will happen from this point forward with their young "human" family member.
In the physical world
"What a day," Naruto sighed to himself as he looked around himself. He was still in his apartment meditating, though I don't know if meditating would be the right word considering he had a bowl of ramen in his lap
He looked outside his window to see that the sun had set below the horizon.
'It's already sunset? It was just about noon when I started talking to the Bijuu?' Naruto thought in surprise
He then looked at his reflection and saw a pair of RinneSharingan staring back at him…
Kurama sighed "Just don't question it"
"Well then, I guess I should go get some food," Naruto mused. As he said that, his stomach growled, signaling the need for nourishment.
Naruto laughed lightly at the timing of his stomach. He made it into his kitchen before realizing he had no ramen left...
'do any of you guys know how to cook?'
Matatabi giggled slightly before she took over "Don't worry Naruto I got this"
THIRTY MINUTES LATER
The Shinobi stared in slight amazement at the Sushi buffet in front of him
'This looks amazing'
The cat had a smug smirk on her face "Just wait till you try it"
It's safe to say the food didn't last long
An undetermined amount of time later
The Moon. Barren, desolate, alone. And definitely not a chariot… yet
Hidden from the eyes of humanity, among the craters on the far side of the moon lies a strange structure. Only known to the world of the mythological and supernatural.
Here lies what was once the home of chaos.
Many of those of the mythological and supernatural side of the world had long since known that the being in the Moon had left seeking a place on the planet below.
Specifically on an island off the coast of what we would know as The Mediterranean Sea.
It is said that there lies a being powerful enough to shape the fundamental primordial forces that comprise the universe, Time, and Space. While true in the depth of strength. Saying that this being shaped Time and Space to its will is... well, a bit of a stretch. While the field of Space-Time wasn't pursued because of the complexity of the field.
That didn't mean there weren't those who tried. Tobirama Senju, Madara Uchiha, Obito Uchiha, Sasuke Uchiha, Kaguya Ōtsutsuki, Minato Namikaze, Naruto Uzumaki-Namikaze.
These unique individuals all held the ability to manipulate Space-Time in some manner. Be it Kamui, Hiraishin, Amenominaka or Yomotsu Hirasaka.
These abilities. Taking what one thinks of traditional Space and Time and bending them. Some even manipulating one or the other or even both on a whim.
However, back to this being. After it had gone into a hibernation of sorts on the moon, watching over but never interfering. Beings of a new class all together poured into existence. The primordial gods and goddesses, monolithic beings on a scale never seen before. Gaia, Uranus, Tartarus, Eros, Erebus, Nyx, Uranus, Ourea, Pontus, Aether, and Hemera. These Primordial beings would be the foundation for the world after Time wrapped its destructive hands on the former planet.
The primordial's would reign until the Titan's took their place as rulers.
The Titans would rule unhindered until the birth of the 6.
3 gods and 3 goddesses, born from the union of the Titan King Cronus and Titaness Queen Rhea.
With the birth of these 6 would see the fall of the Era of Titan's and usher in the Age of the Gods.
Kronos received a prophecy that his children would rise against him. So he swallowed them one by one until the birth of the youngest child, Zeus.
Terrified by the events Rhea tried to trick her husband into swallowing a small boulder hoping that he would take the boulder for their newest born child.
Though deceiving Kronos wasn't easy. He demanded of Rhea to give him Zeus.
Rhea fled with her youngest child to Bijuu island… though not that she knew that.
What she would find there, or rather who she would find there, would change the course of history forever...
Well, I hope you like Chapter 1!
