Hello all Storm here with another new story! Here we'll be seeing a familiar idea, with Naruto and Madara being merged together during the Fourth Shinobi World War, but they won't be going back in time, instead taking a trip to another dimension entirely. So, without further ado.
I own nothing
The Fourth Shinobi World War was reaching its climax, with the Allied Shinobi Forces battling against the resurrected Madara Uchiha, as well as the thought to be dead Obito Uchiha and the revived Jūbi. With them gaining an advantage when the resurrected Hokage arrived along with Sasuke Uchiha, Taka, and Orochimaru. While the Allied Shinobi Forces attacked the Jūbi along with Hashirama, Tobirama, and Hiruzen, Kakashi and Minato focused their attention on Obito, while Naruto and Sasuke went against Madara.
With Kakashi fighting Obito in their shared Kamui Dimension until the Uchiha managed to escape, which gave Minato the chance to use his Hiraishin. Teleporting directly to his fallen student and slicing him across the chest with one of his Hiraishin Kunai. While Kakashi was able to teleport out of the Kamui Dimension, using his Raikiri to finish Obito off. But due to him having been infused with Hashirama's Cells during his time recuperating under Madara's care, Obito managed to survive the attacks.
Leading to him taking back his Sharingan from Kakashi after feigning being killed, allowing him to get in close enough to rip the eye out of his former friend. Thankfully before Obito could kill him, Minato was able to get Kakashi out of the way in time. While Obito quickly replaced his Rinnegan with his recovered Sharingan before looking towards Naruto and Sasuke.
"Kamui!" Obito said, creating a swirling distortion to suck both of them into his Kamui Dimension.
"Naruto! Sasuke!" Shouted Kakashi, getting his students attention, their eyes widening at the swirling distortion pulling them in, with Sasuke quickly jumping away and escaping it.
Though Naruto looked towards Madara to see him moving to not be pulled into the distortion, as well.
"You're not getting away!" Naruto said as he vanished in a burst of speed, reappearing behind Madara with a Rasengan in hand.
"Rasengan!" Said Naruto slamming the attack in the resurrected Uchiha's back, while wrapping an arm around Madara's neck to hold him place, before shoving his arm through the Reanimated Uchiha's back.
"What are you doing you fool?! We'll be pulled in!" Madara said as he tried escaping from Naruto's hold, only to find his body was reforming around his arm and the Uzumaki refused to let go of him.
"That's the idea!" Naruto said, knowing it'll be easier to deal with just the Jūbi and Obito while Madara is trapped inside the Kamui Dimension.
Though just as the swirling distortion hit Naruto and Madara, Sasuke had jumped towards Obito, seeing a chance to cancel the jutsu and finish him off.
"Chidori Sharp Spear!" Sasuke said thrusting a Chidori towards Obito, stabbing a spear of lightning through his chest which soon multiplied as several spears shot out of Obito's body while simultaneously electrocuting him, finally killing the fallen former member of Team Minato.
Unfortunately, rather than canceling the incomplete Kamui, Obito's death caused it to begin distorting around Naruto and Madara, making their eyes widen as the vortex began collapsing in on itself.
"Naruto!" Minato yelled, rushing to get his son out of the way, only to be blown back as the Kamui imploded in on itself, releasing a shockwave that knocked everyone back.
Once the smoke cleared, there wasn't any sign of Naruto or Madara, much to everyone's shock and despair when they couldn't find Naruto.
"I…I can't sense him…I can't sense Naruto anywhere…he's…gone." Ino said, trying to sense Naruto's Chakra but couldn't find any trace of it.
"Damnit…why does this always happen?" Muttered Shikamaru, not believing they've lost another friend/comrade, with Chōji putting a hand on his friends shoulder.
"Hinata! Can you see him anywhere?!" Kiba asked while looking at his teammate, with Hinata already having her Byakugan activated and desperately searching for any sign of the whiskered blonde.
"N-no…I…I can't see Naruto-kun anywhere…he's…he's really gone." Said Hinata with tears starting to build in her eyes that now she's lost both Naruto and Neji.
"My insects also can't find any trace of his Chakra anywhere. I'm afraid that Naruto…is truly no more." Shino said, bowing his head at losing another comrade.
"We already lost Neji, now Naruto too? How many more comrades do we have to lose?!" Lee yelled in anguish, saddened at losing another friend/comrade as Tenten and Gai put their hands on his shoulder, also saddened by Naruto's death.
"Sasuke, what did you do?!" Kakashi demanded looking at former student, with Sasuke looking at the spot where Naruto and Madara once were with wide eyes.
"I…I didn't mean for that to happen…I was just taking the chance to deal with Obito…I didn't…" Said Sasuke, having not thought that this would happen when he killed Obito, not meaning for Naruto to die.
"No, no, no, no, no! He…he can't actually be dead, he's just messing with us like always, he has to be hiding somewhere! He can't-" Sakura said while shaking her head, refusing to believe that Naruto of all people is actually dead, not after everything he's survived before.
"Sakura…he's gone, whether we like it or not." Sai said mournfully, cutting her off, with the pinkette looking at him with tears in her eyes, not believing the Uzumaki is actually dead.
"Uncle, can you…" Tsunade said, looking at Tobirama, wanting to know if he could try sensing Naruto, only for him to shake his head sadly.
"I'm sorry Tsunade, but he is gone." Said Tobirama to his grandniece, while cursing himself for his part in all this, due to his and his students treatment of the Uchiha Clan.
"Minato, I'm so sorry, if only I had…" Hiruzen said sadly to his successor, believing if he'd done a better job as Hokage, if had done more to raise and protect Naruto, this could have been prevented, only for Minato to shake his head while struggling to stay standing.
"It's not your fault Sandaime-sama, this all started because of my choice to make Naruto a Jinchūriki, my choice to not try finishing Obito on that night when I had the chance. Now…he's gone because of me…and I don't know how I'll be able to face Kushina again." Said Minato, falling to one knee and clenched his fists before punch the ground in anger and self-loathing, mentally begging for Kushina to forgive him because of his mistakes that have now gotten their son killed.
'Eight-o…we got to free the others, for Naruto, yo.' Thought Killer B sadly at losing his friend, wanting to do what he would have wanted and free the other Bijū from the Jūbi.
"Yeah, we will B, we will." Gyūki replied somberly at the loss of its older sibling and its host.
"I am truly sorry for the loss you've all suffered, but we must still stop the Jūbi before it can cause anymore harm. Once it's been stopped, then there will be time to mourn." Said Hashirama, with everyone else nodding in agreement, knowing Naruto wouldn't have wanted them to stop now when they're so close.
Though Sasuke, Jūgo, Karin, Suigetsu, and Orochimaru stayed back as everyone began focusing their attention on the Jūbi, before the Uchiha began walking away.
"Leaving so soon Sasuke?" Orochimaru asked, looking at him in intrigue.
"Yeah, we're done here. Obito's dead, Madara's gone, and they can handle the Jūbi on their own with the Kage." Sasuke said, having no interest in fighting the Jūbi, especially now that Naruto's dead.
"Then what's our next move Sasuke?" Questioned Karin as she, Jūgo, Suigetsu and Orochimaru followed him, the Uchiha looking back at them with his Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan glowing.
"Change." Stated Sasuke, Naruto's death making him feel all the more motivated than ever to proceed with his revolution, as Taka and Orochimaru left the battlefield.
*With Naruto and Madara*
Meanwhile, unknown to everyone, Naruto and Madara were still very much alive, having been sent falling through an unstable dimensional rift after the Kamui imploded around them. The two screaming in complete agony as their bodies were being broken down, with Madara even feeling the pain of it. Only being kept alive due to his Edo Tensei body constantly regenerating any damage it took, while Naruto was kept alive by Kurama using all of its Chakra to keep him alive.
With the constant breaking down and regeneration along with the close proximity between them caused Naruto's and Madara's bodies to start merging together. Something that only caused the pain to intensify, as they began merging into a massive eldritch abomination. Becoming little more than a mass of flesh, bone, hair, eyes, teeth, and nails. The mass writhing around and letting out a garbled screaming, no longer even knowing what it was anymore as it continued growing and bloating as if to explode.
Until soon it began shrinking down and settling in a more humanoid form resembling Naruto himself, only with him having paler skin, and dark black hair rather than his usual blonde color.
Once his body had settled and was fully formed, it wasn't long before Naruto soon fell out of the dimensional rift.
*Republic City-Air Temple Island*
While on Air Temple Island, sitting within Yue Bay in Republic City, Avatar Korra was getting ready for her first Airbending Lesson with her Airbending Master, Tenzin. With them being joined by Tenzin's three children, Jinora, Ikki and Meelo.
"Korra's gonna Airbend! Korra's gonna Airbend!" Ikki said excitedly, jumping up and down while clapping her hands, eager to see Korra Airbend, much to the Avatar's amusement before her attention went to the strange contraption in front of her.
"What is that contraption?" Questioned Korra, looking at the circle filled with wooden gates, each of them marked with the symbol for Airbending, noticing they also looked like they were meant to spin around.
"A time-honored tool that teaches the most fundamental aspect of airbending. Jinora, would you like to explain this exercise?" Said Tenzin before looking to his oldest daughter to explain what Korra will need to do.
"The goal is to weave your way through the gates and make it to the other side without touching them." Jinora said, surprising Korra at the seemingly simple exercise before she smirked.
"Seems easy enough." Korra stated, doubting it'll be that hard to move through the gates.
"Jinora forgot to say that you have to make it through, while the gates are spinning." Ikki said with an impish grin, wiping Korra's smirk off her face.
Her eyes widening as Tenzin released a gust of wind, causing all the gates to start spinning faster than she could follow them.
'…Okay, not so easy.' Thought Korra, now unsure how anyone could get through the gates while they were moving like that.
"The key is to be like the leaf." Tenzin said as he grabbed a leaf and let it flow through the gates.
"Flow with the movement of the gates. Jinora will demonstrate." Said Tenzin, nodding to his daughter, who took a deep breath before going up to the gates and began weaving her way through them.
"Airbending is all about spiral movements. When you meet resistance, you must be able to switch direction at a moment's notice." Tenzin explained as Jinora moved through the gates until she came out on the other side without so much as bumping into a single one.
'Okay, that's pretty impressive.' Korra thought, admitting that Jinora is really talented to get through the gates, especially remaining calm the entire time with how they could suddenly hit her.
With Korra gaining a determined expression as Jinora released a gust of wind at the gates, making them pick up speed again when they started slowing down.
"Let's do this!" Said Korra, determined to make it through the gates.
Though just as Korra ran towards the gates, she stopped and held her head at a sudden striking pain.
"Korra! Are you alright?" Tenzin said in worry, wondering what just happened, with Korra panting slightly at the pain fading.
"Y-yeah, I'm…I'm fine, just got a…weird feeling all of a sudden. But it passed and…does anyone else hear that?" Korra asked upon hearing a strange tearing sound.
"Uh…dad?" Said Jinora, looking up at the sky, getting the attention of her father, siblings and Korra as they looked up.
Only for their eyes to widen at seeing what looked like a tear forming in the sky right above Korra.
"What the fu-" Korra said in disbelief before the tear was ripped open as Naruto fell out of the sky, landing right on top of the Avatar.
Grunting at the sudden impact and being knocked to the ground, Korra's eyes shot open in shock at feeling something touching her lips. Her shock growing, along with her embarrassment, at seeing that whoever just landed on her, was now kissing her!
'My first kiss!' Korra thought in embarrassment at losing her first kiss like this, before she slammed her fist on the ground causing small stone pillars to slam into the stranger's side, sending them flying off of her.
"Who the hell are you?! Where did you come from?! Why did you just kiss me?!" Korra shouted rapidly, freaking out and embarrassed while bending several rocks up.
"Korra! Calm down! Whoever this…stranger is, they obviously didn't mean to do anything. Look." Tenzin said, putting a hand on her shoulder to help her cool down, with Korra breathing heavily before looking at the stranger only to see he's unconscious.
"Ah…oh um…r-ri-right, I-I kn-knew that. J-just…caught me by surprise." Korra said, looking away while releasing the rocks.
"What just happened?!" Meelo shouted while throwing his arms up with wide eyes.
"Ooooh, where did he come from?! Do you think he's a Spirit?! Did he come here for Korra?! Ooooh, he's actually kind of cute, I bet he and Korra would make an amazing couple!" Said Ikki, immediately running over to the stranger, with Korra's embarrassment growing at her words.
"Huh, those kind of make him look like a fox." Jinora said, crouching down to look at the stranger and saw the whisker marks on his cheeks, reaching out to touch them out of curiosity.
"Jinora, do not touch him. We don't know who he is or where he came from. For now let's just get him inside, training is also done for the day." Said Tenzin, going over and picking up the stranger to bring him inside and call Lin to let her know what's happened.
*Later*
"Hold the line just a little longer!" An Uchiha shouted as they fought against the Hōzuki Clan, only for the Uchiha Clan to have some trouble against their Hydrification Jutsu to turn their bodies into liquid, making it difficult to actually hit them.
Not to mention their Fire Style Ninjutsu being left useless against their Water Style Ninjutsu, forcing the Uchiha to simply hold out as long as they could until help arrived. Though they were starting to be overwhelmed and knew they'd all be dead soon if something didn't happen to give them an advantage.
"Fire Style: Great Flame Flower!"
Luckily, several giant fireballs descended down from the sky onto the Hōzuki Clan, forcing them to jump back as they felt their bodies begin evaporating from the intense flames. But once the flames began dying down, the Hōzuki Ninja grew nervous when they saw that Madara Uchiha and Izuna Uchiha had arrived, their Mangekyō Sharingan glowing ominously through the fire.
"The Hōzuki Clan? You all think you could stand against the Uchiha just because of your abilities to overwhelm our fire?" Izuna said, pointing his sword at them.
"Perhaps its time they learned that no matter how much water they have, everything that can still burn." Said Madara as the brothers smirked at each other before making a single handsign each.
"Fire Style: Great Fire Annihilation!" Madara and Izuna shouted before the brothers both unleashed a massive amount of flames that combined together into a literal sea of fire.
With the Hōzuki Ninja using their strongest Water Style Ninjutsu, only for the flames to evaporate the water faster than they could make it as the Fire Style Cooperation Jutsu began approaching them. When the flames finally hit a few of the Hōzuki Clan members and began instantly incinerating or evaporating them, as the remaining Hōzuki Ninja began retreating to avoid being reduced to ashes and steam.
Naruto's eyes flew open, only to groan at how sore his body felt before shaking his head of any dizziness.
'What the hell was that? Felt like I was dreaming and…not dreaming.' Thought Naruto, confused at what he just saw, only to notice that he wasn't alone.
Finding himself surrounded by several people, most of which were wearing white and dark blue uniforms with a white lotus symbol decorating them. Along with three other people standing in front of him, a middle-aged man wearing red and orange robes, a middle-aged woman with two scars on her face and wearing black metal armor with gold trimming, and a girl that looked to be his age.
Glancing down at himself, Naruto found metal restraints around his wrists, ankles, chest, and one around his neck.
"Are the restraints really necessary?" Naruto asked blankly, with the woman narrowing her eyes at him.
"Considering the fact you appear literally out of thin air, I'd say yes since we don't know who you are, where you came from, or what you're capable of." The woman said suspiciously, making Naruto frown as he looked at the restraints.
Knowing he'd usually be able to break out of something like this, but at the moment he also felt incredibly weak, doubting even a fresh Genin would have much trouble defeating him.
"Fair enough. But I also don't know who any of you are either, so I suppose we're all at a disadvantage." Said Naruto, making the woman scowl at him before the man stepped forward.
"I am Councilman Tenzin of the Republic City Council, this is Police Chief Lin Beifong, and this is Avatar Korra. While these are members of the White Lotus known as White Lotus Sentries." Tenzin introduced, much to Lin's annoyance.
With Naruto nodding at the names while looking at each person, raising a brow when Korra quickly looked away when he turned to her.
"Okay, my name's Naruto Uzumaki. I don't suppose you'll mind telling me where I am?" Naruto asked, hoping to figure where he was, doubting it's the Elemental Nations since he didn't sense any Chakra from anyone here, but he did sense some kind of energy inside them.
"I'll be the one asking the questions here. First off, where did you come from?" Demanded Lin, wanting to know where the Uzumaki came from.
"Hard to say where I came from when I don't know where I am." Replied Naruto, much to Lin's growing annoyance before Tenzin stepped in.
"You're currently on my family's home, Air Temple Island in Republic City of the United Republic of Nations, located within the Earth Kingdom." Tenzin said, knowing they couldn't get answers if they didn't give some of their own.
"Okay…I have no idea what any of those places are. But I suppose fair's fair, I'm from a place called the Land of Fire." Naruto said, getting some confused looks.
"You mean the Fire Nation?" Korra questioned tensely, only to look away again when Naruto turned to her, getting a raised brow from him again.
"No, one of the countries in the Elemental Nations or the Shinobi Continent as the rest of the world knows us as." Replied Naruto, while noticing how Tenzin, Lin and the White Lotus Sentries seemed to tense at this.
"So…you're from outside the Four Nations?" Tenzin asked warily, making Naruto and Korra turn to him.
"Outside the Four Nation? Don't the nations cover the entire planet?" Said Korra in confusion.
"My mother didn't tell you about other the lands? Despite what many may think, the Four Nations are just a small part of the overall world." Tenzin said with a frown, with the Avatar shaking her head while being intrigued at learning this.
"Does it have anything to do with the fact you all look pretty worried about me being from some place else?" Naruto said, making everyone look at him before Tenzin sighed.
"Yes, it's rather worrisome that someone from outside the Four Nations is here, since the last time someone left the Four Nations was Avatar Kyoshi." Revealed Tenzin, with this information surprising Korra.
"Avatar Kyoshi traveled outside of the Four Nations?!" Asked Korra, having never heard of any past Avatar going outside of the Four Nations.
"She did and it was the single stupidest thing any Avatar has ever done, including that little stunt you pulled when first getting here." Lin said bluntly, with Korra narrowing her eyes at the Police Chief and went to say something, until Tenzin stepped in.
"What Lin means is that Avatar Kyoshi had…underestimated just what people outside of the Four Nations were capable of and it came at a high cost." Said Tenzin, with Naruto and Korra looking at him in intrigue.
"What did she do?" Naruto asked, curious to hear more of what happened.
"It had been near the end of Avatar Kyoshi's reign as the Avatar, she left the Four Nations on a campaign to find other lands and ensure none of them could become threats to the Four Nations." Tenzin explained, getting a frown from Korra.
"So she basically traveled to different lands to conquer them." Korra stated, not liking the idea one of her past lives tried to conquer different lands, ones they had no business being in.
"I…suppose so, yes. But it wasn't long before she returned as the first land she encountered was already under the control of someone else. When the natives tried forcing her to leave, Kyoshi retaliated, resulting in the death of dozens of people, including one of the adopted sons of the ruler of the land." Said Tenzin, trying to defend the actions of his father's past life only to lower his head, with Naruto and Korra being shocked to hear this, the latter also being disgusted at what Kyoshi did.
"I'm guessing the leader didn't take kindly to that." Naruto said, with Tenzin shaking his head.
"No, no he didn't. When he learned what Kyoshi had done, he retaliated, possessing enough power to force Kyoshi to retreat back to the Four Nations." Tenzin replied.
"He must've had a lot of allies to help him take on Kyoshi." Said Korra, not really having any sympathy for Kyoshi since she brought it onto herself with her actions, only to look at Lin when she scoffed.
"Allies? He didn't have allies, he fought Kyoshi completely alone and she was forced to escape before she was killed." Lin revealed, which really shocked Korra, not believing that one person could force Kyoshi, one of the most powerful Avatars there was, to retreat.
"He beat her…by himself? How…how powerful was this guy?" Korra asked in disbelief that anyone could be that power.
"He was regarded as the Strongest Man in the World, possessing a power unlike any other, as if it was the combined power of Earthbending and Airbending with bits of Waterbending, allowing him to send tremors through anything, even the air itself. He was so powerful that even when Kyoshi used the Avatar State, she still couldn't beat him, having been forced to exit the Avatar State and retreat, so the Avatar Cycle didn't die with her. But while she managed to escape, the injuries she suffered were too severe and Kyoshi died not long after returning, with the warning of those outside the Four Nations and the power they possessed. It's been believed that if Kyoshi didn't attempt her campaign, she would've lived to this very day. Since then, no one has ever tried leaving the Four Nations out of fear and, thankfully, no one has come here either. Until now that is." Said Tenzin while looking at Naruto.
"So, let me get this straight. This Avatar Kyoshi not only traveled to lands she had no business being in, attacked when they simply fought to defend their homeland against an invading force, and killed the rulers the adopted son. I'd say she got off easy, if this guy is really that powerful then he would have ripped this land apart and he'd be right to do so after what the dumbass did. I know that anyone even slightly less merciful would've done the same." Naruto stated, making Tenzin frown since while he didn't agree with Kyoshi's actions, it was still his father's past life.
"Avatar Kyoshi-" Tenzin said.
"Got exactly what was coming." Said Korra, cutting off her teacher, with the Airbender looking at her in disbelief.
"Korra!" Tenzin said, only for Korra to shake her head.
"No Tenzin, he's right. Kyoshi had no business being in these other lands, let alone attacking them, out of some misplaced belief they'd be a threat to the Four Nations. Her actions are no different than Ozai's or Chin's, conquering other lands just because she could and she paid the price for it. There's no way you can defend her actions and I'm definitely not going to try to defend her." Korra said, refusing to hear any kind of defense for Kyoshi, knowing she got what was coming.
It's even worse since Korra had looked up to Kyoshi, respecting her past life and everything she did, how strong she was, and how long she lived as the Avatar. Her opinion of her did go down a little after learning she created the Dai Li and the trouble they caused during the Hundred Year War. Now hearing she actually tried conquering other lands, Korra couldn't continue respecting Kyoshi for that.
'Now I understand why Katara didn't tell me, though.' Thought Korra since she'd admit if she learned about lands outside the Four Nations, then she'd be likely to slip away to try and go explore them.
"Well said." Said Naruto, nodding at Korra, making her look at him before quickly looking away with a light blush.
"Okay seriously, why do you keep doing that? Looking away the moment I look at you." Naruto said with a frown, before turning to Tenzin when he cleared his throat.
"Well when you…appeared earlier, you landed on top of Korra. And while you were unconscious, in the process you ended up inadvertently…kissing her." Revealed Tenzin, making the Uzumaki's eyes widen before blushed in embarrassment.
"My first kiss…jerk." Korra said, also embarrassed at the memory, with Naruto's own embarrassment increasing at this.
"O-oh…um, I'm…really sorry about that, I swear I would never have done that if I'd been conscious and I definitely didn't mean for it to happen. Though I'll understand if you're angry, since it still happened, all I can say is I'm sorry." Said Naruto while doing is best to bow his head in apology, with the brunette turned to him after a few moments, wondering if she should accept the apology.
"It's…it's fine…like you said, you didn't mean for it to happen. It was just an accident." Replied Korra, accepting his apology since it had just been an accident.
"Great, now can we get back to the topic at hand." Lin said in annoyance, wanting to get back to what they were originally doing.
"Now then, you're from outside the Four Nations, where exactly? And what factions do you belong to? Or are you a rogue element?" Questioned Lin, looking at Naruto with narrowed eyes.
"Where, I already said the Elemental Nations. I don't have an exact location since while there are continents outside of the Shinobi Continent, in the forms of the Shinjin Continent to the West of us; the Yukiguni Continent to the North of us; the Yami Continent to the South; as well as the Temujin Continent and Teikokutoji Continent to the East. I only learned about them a few years ago while on a training trip with my late master, with there being no mention of an area of the world known as the Four Nations. I'm also not part of any faction." Naruto replied, technically not lying since he hadn't officially been part of the Allied Shinobi Forces, only showing up to help fight Madara and Obito as well as the Zetsu/Edo Tensei Army.
"How exactly did you appear the way you did? And do the people from these Elemental Nations possess any special abilities?" Tenzin asked, wanting to know how he appeared and any abilities he may have.
"How I appeared, that I don't really know since the last thing I remember was getting caught in an explosion then waking up right here. While some people in the Elemental Nations are capable of using what's called Chakra, a mixture of Spiritual Energy and Physical Energy that let's us do all kinds of things." Explained Naruto, with Korra looking interested at this.
"What kind of things?" Questioned Korra, wanting to know what he's capable of.
"Several things like walk up vertical surfaces, walk on water, manipulate and shape our Chakra into attacks, as well as control the elements." Naruto replied, getting shocked looks at the latter part.
"Elements? As in more than one?" Tenzin asked in disbelief.
"Yeah, Wind, Fire, Water, Earth and Lightning. Some of them can also be combined into sub-elements like Ice and Lava. Is that not something you guys can do?" Said Naruto with a raised brow.
"We have bending here and only four elements, Waterbending, Firebending, Earthbending and Airbending. And the only person capable of bending more than one is supposed to be her." Said Lin while pointing at Korra.
"Why just her?" Naruto asked, confused as to why only Korra could bend multiple elements.
"Because I'm the Avatar, Master of all Four Elements." Korra replied, creating a small flame in her hand, surprising Naruto slightly.
"Well we can't do that, just create elements like that. We have to mold our Chakra in order to turn it into the element we want or manipulate pre-existing elements." Said Naruto, knowing only the strongest Ninja could do something like that.
"Right, and do we have to worry about anyone coming to find you?" Lin asked, wanting to know if she needed to prepare for a potential army of Avatars showing up.
"Unlikely, since they'll probably assume I'm dead and even if they didn't, like I said, there's been no record of these Four Nations and my late .aster had one of the most expansive spy networks in the world. So you're stuck with just me." Naruto said with a slight smirk.
"Yeah, like I don't have enough headaches to deal with." Muttered Lin before moving her hands, causing the metal restraints to open up, allowing Naruto to stand up rubbing his wrists and neck.
"Well it would seem that you aren't a danger to us or Republic City, though you are also stuck here by the looks of it. In the meantime, you'll be welcome to stay here on Air Temple Island until you can get your bearings. There are some clothes for you to change in." Said Tenzin as everyone began filing out the room leaving Naruto alone.
Looking around the room, Naruto spotted the pile of clothes along with a mirror, the Uzumaki going over to the mirror first to look at himself, only to be surprised when he saw his changed appearance.
"I look like Menma." Naruto said upon seeing that he looked like his counterpart from when he and Sakura were trapped in the Limited Tsukuyomi.
But given what they heard about the Sakura from that world appearing in theirs, Naruto started thinking that it had actually been an alternate timeline/dimension, rather than just a Genjutsu.
'That's not the only changes.' Thought Naruto seeing his whisker-marks, canines and nails were more pronounced, while his eyes were a darker shade of blue with his pupils being slits, like the first time he used the Rasenshuriken.
The sight of his rather feral features made Naruto remember Kurama before he quickly sat in a meditative stance to enter his mindscape.
*Mindscape*
Appearing in his mindscape, Naruto looked around for Kurama, only to not see the fox anywhere in sight.
"Kurama? Kurama?! Kurama!" Naruto shouted, looking around for the Bijū, but didn't see it anywhere and he couldn't sense the fox either; much to his shock, horror and dismay at realizing that Kurama was gone.
"Kurama…" Muttered Naruto, falling to his hands and knees, not believing his friend was really gone.
Before he began remembering everything that happened, him and Madara falling through the destabilized Kamui rift, his body breaking apart, before they began merging together. With him having come out as the dominant personality, while still getting some of Madara's traits and features.
'And Kurama, you sacrificed yourself so I could live. Damnit.' Naruto thought, punching the ground before exiting his mindscape, knowing there's no point in staying here.
*Real World*
Opening his eyes, Naruto stood up and bit his thumb before going through handsigns.
"Summoning Jutsu!" Naruto said, slamming his hand on the ground, only for nothing to happen with not even a tadpole appearing.
'Guess my DNA and Chakra are too different from when I signed the Toad Contract.' Thought Naruto, sighing at being unable to summon anything either, before he also felt his Chakra seemed messed up as well.
'Doubt I'll be able to make a Rasengan again for a while.' Naruto thought, knowing what control he had was likely ruined and would need to work to get back up if he wanted to use most of his Jutsu again.
Looking in the mirror again, the ravenette channeled Chakra into his eyes causing them to turn crimson red with three tomoe circling the pupils. Channeling more Chakra into them didn't change them any further, though.
"Okay, I can use the regular Sharingan, but I'll probably have to unlock the Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan and Rinnegan on my own." Stated Naruto, deactivating his Sharingan grabbing the clothes he was left.
The clothes consisting of black sandals, baggy black pants, a longer-sleeved black shirt, and a dark blue robe that was split down the center and held closed by a periwinkle sash.
Once he was dressed, Naruto exited the room and headed outside, wanting to get some training done, only to stop when he saw Korra outside as well. Making the Uzumaki stop and watch her train, seeing her go through different motions of her bending stances. Watching as she started Firebending, Waterbending, and Earthbending, manipulating the different elements.
"You're pretty good. But don't you think that's all a little…basic?" Said Naruto after a while and approached Korra, making the Avatar stop in her training and look at him.
"Basic? I was Waterbending, Firebending, and Earthbending when I was just a kid! And I've mastered all three of them after years of training!" Korra said in annoyance at her abilities being called basic.
"Not saying you're weak or anything, but other than controlling water, fire and earth, is that it? No adding anything or changing the style?" Naruto asked, given all the Elemental Ninjutsu he and Madara have both seen, as well as all the different ways they were used.
"What would I change or add?" Questioned Korra with a frown, calming down a little since he wasn't insulting her abilities.
"Well you're the Avatar aren't you, the only one capable of bending different elements. Try combining them together, manipulate the shape of the water, fire, and earth, use your imagination to do anything you can think of." Said Naruto, making Korra's frown deepen as she crossed her arms.
"Okay Mr. Imagination, show me what you can do." Korra said, stepping aside and letting him try, wanting to see what he can do with the elements.
"Alright." Naruto replied stepping forward before he began going through all the Jutsu he knew and saw in Madara's memories, seeing which ones he'd be capable of performing before going through handsigns.
"Fire Style: Demon Lanterns!" Said Naruto, creating several floating fireballs around him, before to Korra's amazement they transformed into demon-looking heads.
The Avatar watched as Naruto then sent the demon heads up into the air, where they all exploded into a hug blast of fire.
"Woah." Said Korra in amazement at what he just did, not expecting to see fire used like that.
"There's a lot one can do with the elements Korra, the only limit you have is your on imagination." Naruto stated while tapping her on the head, making the brunette swat his hand.
"Okay, okay, that was pretty cool and I get it. And since you seem to be an expert, how about showing me what else you can do, maybe I'll even show you more of my moves." Said Korra with a smirk, which Naruto returned.
"Fine, but don't complain too much if I show you up." Naruto said before making a cross handsign.
"Shadow Clone Jutsu!" Said Naruto, before to Korra's shock he created twenty Shadow Clones.
"What the hell?!" Korra shouted in shock and disbelief, as Naruto smirked at her
"Did I forget I can also make clones? Must've slipped my mind." Naruto said before motioning his clones to get to work on training, with Korra look at them with wide eyes.
"What…what exactly are they doing?" Questioned Korra, watching as they clones walked off into the forest on the island.
"They're Shadow Clones, anything they learn is automatically transferred back to the original once they dispel. Making them very useful for training." Replied Naruto, making the Avatar looking at him with wide eyes.
"…That's bullshit and unfair." Korra stated, not believing he could make clones to help him with his training.
"Says the Master of all Four Elements." Naruto said, making Korra cross her arms while sticking her tongue out at him.
*Later*
After getting over her shocks at Naruto's abilities, Naruto and Korra began training together, with the Uzumaki showing more of his abilities, with the Avatar in turn showed him more of her bending forms. Naruto also giving her advice on how to improve her bending, going off of his own training and Madara's memories in Elemental Manipulation. While he had his clones work on improving his Chakra Control and work on mastering his new Fire Affinity, given that's what most of Madara's Ninjutsu consisted of.
While also trying out the other Jutsu he could perform, which consisted of Fire Style: Grand Fireball Jutsu, Fire Style: Phoenix Sage Fire Jutsu, Fire Style: Dragon Fire Jutsu, and Fire Style: Hiding in Ash Jutsu. As well as still being able to perform the Transformation Jutsu and Substitution Jutsu, with Naruto being pleased at the Jutsu he had access to for the time being, until he can improve his Chakra Control.
"Okay, I'll admit you're pretty good. But I'm gonna make you regret helping me." Said Korra as she and Naruto sat and watched the sunset, resting from their day of training.
"Is that so?" Naruto said with a smirk.
"Yep, I'm going to be that much better at controlling the elements and I'll be using everything you taught to kick your ass. Especially, since I already have way more experience." Korra stated with her own smirk.
"Sure you do Avatar, but can you handle my better variety? We'll just have to see how you fight someone like me." Replied Naruto, knowing while Korra was strong, he did have a wider variety of abilities.
"Yes we will, but I already know I would win." Said Korra confidently.
"I'm sure you'll win lots of times, in your dreams that is." Naruto said, making the brunette punch him in the arm.
It wasn't long before the two decided to head inside for the day, feeling tired from all their training, plus everything else that happened and what they learned. While Naruto wondered what else he could expect from this new world.
So, what did you think, good. Yep we see the Fouth Shinobi War just before Obito can become the Jūbi Jinchūriki, with Kakashi and Minato dealing with Obito only for him to survive their attacks and reclaim his Sharingan, using it to trap Naruto and Sasuke with his Kamui, with Sasuke getting out of the way while Naruto makes sure he and Madara are both hit to be trapped. Only for Sasuke to kill Obito before the Kamui is fully formed resulting in it imploding taking Naruto and Madara with it, with everyone believing they're dead, with the Shinobi Alliance still needing to deal with the Jūbi while Sasuke leaves with his team and Orochimaru to continue his revolution. Before we see Naruto and Madara falling through a dimensional rift leading to them merging together with Naruto being the dominant personality and soon exiting the dimensional rift. Then we go to Air Temple Island during Korra's first Airbending lesson with Tenzin, only for it be cut short when Naruto falls out of the dimensional right on top of Korra and inadvertently kisses her, causing the Avatar to freak out and knock him away, with Tenzin calming her down and pointing out he's unconscious before bringing Naruto inside to find out who he is and where he came from. We then see Naruto getting a look at some of Madara's memories of the Warring Clans Era before waking up to find himself restrained and surrounded by White Lotus Sentries, Korra, Tenzin, and Lin who begins questioning Naruto on who he is and where he came from, before we learn the world is much bigger as we get some backstory on how Avatar Kyoshi traveled outside the Four Nations, only to make her last mistake when she crossed a certain pirate by killing one of his adopted sons. With Naruto then giving some half-truths and lies for where he came from, which help satisfy them as he's released and allowed to stay on Air Temple, with Naruto then entering his mindscape only to find Kurama is gone, having given its life to make sure he survived, along with seeing what he can do at the moment. Finally we see Naruto encounter Korra while training, leading to them training together and showing signs of a growing friendship and rivalry between them.
