CHAPTER 1. Operation: Ramen Eater
GROZNY GRAD: TORTURE ROOM
"Am I in heaven." Was the first thought Naruto had running through his mind when he slowly opened his eyes. Something he thought was never going to happen again. The last time having been during his fight with Pain after he had succumbed to the nine tail foxes' power to try and avenger Hinata and the rest of his village. However, now standing before him bathed in a glowing white light was a beautiful blonde-haired green-eyed woman. Suddenly before Naruto had time to think over what was happening everything was brought to a sharp focus when ice cold water was thrown in his face. As he started to cough and splutter from the water that had made its way up to his nose and down his windpipe someone spoke.
"Good your finally awake." Called out a man's deep voice from somewhere behind him. As Naruto continue to try to clear out his throat he came to a horrifying realization that he was unable to move his arms. Shaking his head clear of the water from his face, Naruto looked around to see that he had been bound at the wrist and was currently being suspended a few inches off the ground by an iron chain. Not only that he had been stripped down to just only his pants and ninja sandals.
"What the hell's going? who are you, people? where's Pain!" Naruto demanded as he began to violently shake in an attempt to free himself from his shackles.
"Pain... it's right here." The unseen man called out however as Naruto began to turn his body to look behind him the side of his face exploded with pain as a red gloved fist delivered a powerful right hook across his jaw. The strength of the punch not only busted his lip but also sent him spinning around the room as he dangled from the chain. After a few rotations, he was suddenly stopped and was now facing the opposite side of the room is back to the blonde-haired woman.
"Now to answer your other two questions, my name is Revolver Ocelot. Now my unfortunate young friend you find yourself in the torture chamber of GROZNYI GRAD fortress." Now that he stops me and he was able to focus his eyesight once again Naruto came face to face with the other person in the room. It was a tall elderly man dressed in a dark brown uniform and black boots. At his hip and across his torso were some bandoliers. He had sharp cold eyes, long white hair pulled back into a ponytail, and a large handlebar mustache. "Now I have a few questions for you." Ocelot began to say however Naruto's mind was on overdrive trying to figure out what was going on.
He had never seen people dressed this way before in his life or had he ever heard of whatever this fortress was called. Where was he, what happened to him, and what about the hidden leaf were there any survivors, how long had he been gone, would he ever get back in time. All these thoughts were rolling through Naruto's mind so much that he had failed to notice when the man who had addressed himself as Ocelot spoke to him.
"Who are you?" Ocelot said as he drove his fist into the blond teen's stomach. On Naruto could do was gasped in pain as all the air rushed out of him. "Good glad to see you finally paying attention now answer me who are you and how did you infiltrate this installation?" It took a moment for Naruto to catch his breath before he could utter a response.
"You bastard wait till I get out of here, I'll give you a taste of your own medicine," Naruto called out as he once again tried to free himself from his bindings.
"Who are you working for, have you come to try and rescue your American comrade? Answer me, boy!" Ocelot demanded as he ignored the blonde teens' words and rocked his body with a vicious combination of punches. All Naruto could do was grunt out in pain as he tried to fight back against the older man. Just as it looked like Ocelot was about to question Naruto once again, the blonde woman who has been suddenly watching The exchange between the two men finally stepped forward and stopped the older man.
"Perhaps Shalashaska, the boy would respond to a woman's touch." At this Ocelot stayed his hand and step back from Naruto, pausing for a moment as he brought his hand under his chin in thought.
"Yes Tatyana, perhaps that would be for the best, I must go and gather a few essential things." Ocelot finally spoke has the address but the now named woman began to walk out of the room. "I'll leave it in your capable hands until my return." once the door closed Naruto again struggled against the chain trying to free himself.
"Please do not struggle against the chain you will only hurt yourself further." Tatyana gently spoke as she walked around to face Naruto. Now that she was Infront of him and he was no longer being blinded by the light, Naruto saw that the woman was also dressed in a brown uniform similar to the one that Ocelot had. It was brown being a skirt that reached her knees, a white shirt, and a black tie, with a brown jacket atop that.
"Hey listen, lady, you got to help me get out of here quick, I have to get back home and stop Pain before it is too late," Naruto said as he looked at the woman. Tatyana was silent as he watched to teen.
"This Pain you speak of, he is a person?" the woman asked skeptically before her face finally softened. "I want to help, but how can I trust you." at her words Naruto looked ready to protest once more but soon stopped when Tatyana raised a hand to him.
"Please you miss understand, I will help you but you must tell me who you are and how you came to be in this fortress." The woman spoke calmly as she tried to take the boy down. seen that there was no other way around this Naruto let out a sigh.
"Alright fine, My name is Naruto Uzumaki and I am from the Hidden Leaf Village," Naruto said and quickly began to tell Tatyana everything he could remember. He started with him returning home after his two-year training then the attack on Garra, Akatsuki begins to make their move, his second training and finally returning to the destroyed village and his fight against the Akatsuki leader Pain. Once everything was said and done Tatyana remained silent as he looked at the blonde teen sadly.
"There I told you everything, now please you have to let me out of here I need to get back home!" Naruto pleaded as he stared into the woman's green eyes. However, before anything else could be said between them the door to the room opened. Walking back into the room was Ocelot who was flanked by a man dressed in a black uniform his face covered behind a balaclava.
"I'm sorry," Tatyana said her voice just above a whisper as she moved past Naruto and headed towards the door, leaving him in the room alone with the two men. As the man in the black uniform began to set up some kind of strange-looking metallic device. Ocelot slowly circled Naruto now with a look of interest as he began to appraise the teen. meanwhile, Naruto simply glared back at the man hatefully.
"Shalashaska, Sir. the device is ready." the masked soldier spoke as he stood at attention awaiting further orders.
"Good now leave us, post a guard outside the room I don't want anyone interrupting my... interrogation." Ocelot ordered and with a quick salute the man left the room."Finally just the two of us."
"Look I told you guys who I am. I don't know who you are and I don't care I need to get home." Naruto shouted in anger Ashe thrashed around once more.
"Yes... that was quite a tale you told Tatyana. Naruto Uzumaki shinobi of the hidden leaf village... well not that there is much left of it after Pain's attack." Ocelot said as he let out a low chuckle. "it's clear enough you're not a spy if all it takes for you to spill your guts it's a pretty face." At this Ocelot began to laugh once more. meanwhile, Naruto's face flushed with embarrassment realizing everything he had said must have been heard outside the room.
"I hate to break it to you kid so you're not home anymore... hell I don't even think you're in the same universe that's for the scientist to figure out. Now, normally that would be the end of it we would cart you off to Moscow where our top scientists would begin dissecting you learning all your secrets. That amazing healing factor of yours alone would make you a prize to any government." As Ocelot spoke he walked over to the strange metallic object that he had brought with him into the room."Unfortunately for you, your sudden appearance in this fortress could not have come at a waste of time. you see we have just recently captured another intruder before you unexpectedly arrived."
As the Ocelot spoke Naruto's head was once again swimming what was he saying he wasn't home what was this place he named. how could it not be near the hidden leaf what had happened after his fight with Pain? could he have somehow been teleported to another world? it was just not possible there was no way he had somehow found himself in a new world. however, that creeping's out he had been trying to push into the back of his mind since he awoke in this strange place was now coming forward at full force. the entire time he had been chained not once had he been able to call upon his chakra.
"However I do not believe in coincidence and I am anything if not a thorough man, so Naruto let's play a game just me and you." When Ocelot finally turned around in his hands he held metal paddles the ends of each connected to the box. "Most men's bodies give out when it comes to electroshock, your body however won't give out so easily. I'm going to learn the truth one way or another now let's see what kind of man you are.
For the next two hours, the only sounds that could be heard coming out of the room for the screams of Naruto Uzumaki followed by the sadistic laughter of Revolver Ocelot. The interrogation had been Ocelot asking Naruto questions about everything he had told Tatyana. Ocelot would ask the same thing more than once but never in the same order twice. If Naruto was too slow he would get shocked, if Naruto tried to lash out against the man he would get shocked, if Naruto refused to scream out in pain he would get shocked till he did.
ZZZZAAAAAPPPP
"What is your name?" ocelot ass as he cranked up the voltage on the defibrillator.
ZZZZAAAAPPPP
"Naruto Uzumaki" panted out his voice now horse from all the screen as he stared daggers at Ocelot.
ZZZZAAAAPPPP
"Why can't you access your chakra?" ocelot demanded.
ZZZZAAAAPPPP
"I don't know," Naruto grunted out.
ZZZZAAAAPPPP
"Why can't you use your chakra to tell me the truth!" Ocelot asked once more.
ZZZZAAAAPPPP
"I TOLD YOU I DON'T KNOW!"
ZZZZAAAAPPPP
ZZZZAAAAPPPP
ZZZZAAAAPPPP
Luckily for Naruto just then the door to the room flew open. trying to look over his shoulder in Arkansas that it was the woman from before Tatyana.
"I told you I was not to be disturbed while I was administrating my interrogating." Ocelot barked out angrily.
"Shalashaska sir, Commander Gurlukovich requests your present immediately there has been a development," Tatyana said as she stood at attention. At this new piece of information, Ocelot put away his electrical paddles with an angry grunt.
"Very well, looks like we'll have to cut this short Uzumaki," Ocelot called out sadly, at this Naruto just spat on the floor near the man's boot. At this act of defense, Ocelot gave out a deep laugh. "Tatyana see to it that our guest here is placed in a holding cell. oh and give him something to eat he'll need to regain his strength." And with that, the older man left the room.
The trip from the torture room to the holding cell was a blur as Naruto tried to stay awake as he was dragged by to uniformed man while Tatyana lead the way. They moved through corridors, up and down a few staircases till he was finally thrown into the cold stone ground. As the two men left, closing the cell door behind him Tatyana paused momentarily as she looked down at the blond teen that was still trying to move his body and stay awake.
"I will bring you something to eat," Tatyana said as she began to walk away, however before she turned the corner Naruto had called out to her.
"You got any Ramen!" the blond asked hopefully. although Naruto couldn't see Tatyana had a small smile on his face.
"I will bring food soon." And with that Naruto was left alone once again. finally able to sit up Naruto looked around his holding cell. it was a bearing room all made of concrete with a small steel bed and a thin mattress for him to sleep on. getting up he moved over to lay on top of the bed. As he lay there trying to recover as best as he could, a random muscle spasming out now and then was a side effect of Ocelot's electric torture. Naruto thought back on everything he had learned so far about this new world. it was the only positive to the last two hours of hell he had endured.
Revolver Ocelot like to talk when he conducted his interrogations, and it was thanks to this that Naruto had come to learn a great deal. however, all that he learned did not bring him any sort of solace. he was currently in the mountain region of a country called Russia on the European continent, the name of this planet was Earth. From what he had learned it was far more technologically advanced than his. Cars, trains, cellphones, supercomputers, airplanes, nuclear weapons, guns, modern medicine, satellites, and so much more. Naruto couldn't help but curse look if what ocelot said was true if he had wound up in the United States of America he would not have been tortured.
Unfortunately, thanks to his advanced healing ocelot told him that he would most likely never see the light of day once he was transferred to Moscow. their scientists would work tirelessly to try to replicate his healing ability and hopes to create better soldiers for war. However, that would be something Naruto will not allow to happen not if he had anything to say about it. Shaking himself he sat upon his bed gingerly due to his muscles still being so stiff and began to try and think of a way to escape this place.
Looking around the windowless room there wasn't much for him to be able to do to escape this place, the upside was that at least there was no one guarding him so he will not have to worry about being watched. bringing his hand in front of him his palm facing upwards Naruto tried to concentrate and focus chakra to make a Rasengan, however, nothing happened.
"Damn it what the hell is going on why can't I use any of my jutsu." Naruto card.in frustration as he brought his fingers together to form the cross symbol for his signature move.
"Shadow clone jutsu," Once again nothing happened, by this point, Naruto was beginning to panic not understanding what was going on to him.
"Hey kid, you alright?" Someone had called out to him. snapping his head around Naruto looked towards the holding cell in front of his own. they're leading casually on the bars of the cell door was a tall man, he had a fair complexion with short brown hair, he was dressed in what appeared to be some kind of uniform. different to the soldiers of the fortress because theirs were black or brown. This man's uniform look to be black or maybe dark blue with dark purple trim going along the torso this sides of his pants legs and boots.
"I'll live so you're the other intruder Ocelot mentioned," Naruto said as he stood up and walked towards the cell door. upon closer inspection, Naruto saw the man had a few bruises and cuts with his upper bicep and his right guy being wrapped up with bandages. the man has put up a fight before he was captured.
"I take it you had a running with the old cowboy." The man said with a bit of a grimace. as he saw the state the blond team was in.
"Yeah well, when I get out of here I'm going to teach that old bastard to lesson." Naruto said angrily as he gripped the bars of the holding cell door his knuckles becoming white with rage." I'm Naruto by the way Naruto Uzumaki." the blunting set as he introduced himself.
"Naruto Uzumaki huh, you don't look Japanese to me. name's Clint Barton." the older man introduced himself. however, before the two of them could talk further the sound of footsteps approaching their cells was true near. Naruto watched as Clint quickly moves back to his bed laying down pretending to be passed out. Naruto however remained standing at the cell door.
"Is that what I think it is," Naruto said hopefully as he looked at what Tatyana had brought him to eat. they're standing before him the beautiful blonde-haired woman was holding a large instant cup of ramen.
"You are very lucky a few of the soldiers keep this stocked in the kitchen," Tatyana said as she handed Naruto his food through the gaps in the cell door bars. graciously accepting the food Naruto pulled off the top and began to dig into his food all the while trying to use the strange utensil the woman had brought him.
"Thanks for the food," Naruto called once he had finished eating however that's when the room certainly began to shift under his feet. you tried to stand up from the bed however his entire body was feeling extremely sluggish and numb. looking over towards the cell phone Naruto saw that Clint was now standing outside of his cell, meanwhile, Tatyana was gone, and in her place stood an identical woman only she had deep scarlet red hair.
"Don't fight the sedatives Naruto by the time you wake up again I promise you'll be out of this place," Tatyana said but now however Naruto noticed that she sounded completely different than before. he tried to say something but instead, she just fell backward onto his bed knocked out from whatever drugs he had just unwittingly ingested.
When Naruto finally began to wake up took him a moment to register where he was and what had happened. The next thing he noticed was the sound of a blaring alarm ringing through the fortress
"What the hell is going on?" Naruto said to himself as he set up on his bed and that's when he finally saw that the door to his cell had been opened during his sleep. quickly rush to his feet he ran out of the cell and into the hallway looking around for any other soldiers, but to his immense luck, there seems to be nobody around. moving along the corridor Naruto tried to retrace the path that had brought him from the torture room to the holding cells.
He had just made it to the second staircase they had passed without having encountered any soldiers yet. just then however a massive explosion rocked the entire fortress causing him to almost fall over. studying himself in reaching the top Naruto spotted a large window along the hallway wall. looking out the window Naruto's song The pandemonium for fortress, was it?
All over the place on the ground level in a large open area, Naruto saw several soldiers running back and forth, while many of the buildings were damaged and parts of them were on fire from the explosion that had just occurred. it was clear enough to Naruto that they were under attack but who were the ones attacking them and what had happened to Clint and Tatyana.
"The second intruder! open fire!" looking away from the window Naruto saw that at the end of the hallway three soldiers had run to the corner and they were all aiming their guns as Ocelot had called them at him. jumping through the closest door to him Naruto avoided The barrage of bullets aimed at him. Looking around the room that he had now found himself in Naruto saw that it was a large locker area.
Quickly moving along the lockers Naruto began to start opening a few other random in the hopes that he could find some kind of weapon he could defend himself with. on the second to last locker, the first row Naruto opened it and was nearly scared half to death when an almost naked white-haired man fell out of the locker unconscious. Naruto didn't have time to register what had just happened because the three soldiers had just burst into the room.
turning the corner Naruto crouched down behind the next row of lockers waiting for the three men to come closer. he had no weapon it was still shirtless but with any luck, if he could catch them by surprise his ti-jutsu should be quick enough to make easy work of all three of them.
"Hey look!" one of the soldiers called out
"Is that the captain?" another spoke. quickly looking around the corner Naruto sauce that offered men were gathered around the unconscious body Naruto had just found. seizing his opportunity Naruto jumped over the lockers so that he was now back in the first row and right behind all three men. before any of them had time to register what had happened Naruto struck.
The first soldier and the nearest to him Naruto quickly delivered a vicious spin kick to his head which to the blonde surprise set the man flying hard into the lockers denting the metal. the second soldier not beginning to raise his rifle was stopped dead in his tracks when Naruto landed a direct hit right across his jaw causing the man to drop to the ground like a sack of potatoes after a sickening crunch was heard. by now the last soldier had his gun fully raised and was able to fire off a few shots one of which hit Naruto in his shoulder. a grunt of pain the blonde quickly got under the man's guard not the gun out of his hands before he jumped up and brought his knee crashing into the man's face.
It was all over in a matter of seconds and Naruto was left panting as he waited for the adrenaline rush to pass. when it finally did and his breathing was under control Naruto took time to look around when he was suddenly hit but the horrifying realization that he had unintentionally just killed these three men. even though they were his enemies Naruto always stroke to end things peacefully and never wished to kill anyone before but he had now just done it with incredible ease.
"I just killed them," Naruto said as he stepped back for a moment he had killed before but there was something about this time it had been incredibly easy. He had not put a lot of strength behind his attacks because he couldn't use his chakra to enhance his strength yet he had somehow managed to devastate them nonetheless. looking down at the three lifeless bodies Naruto quickly turn and punched one of the lockers and frustration.
"Damn it I didn't want to kill you," Naruto called out the infestation. However, suddenly stopped his self-loading when he saw what his punch I'd just done to the metal locker. there was a perfect fist-size indentation several inches deep. Naruto looked at the twisted metal and then at his fist which was not broken or cut in any way. turning to face another locker Naruto repeated the action this time with more force.
"Wow," Naruto called out when he had been able to completely punch the metal door off his hinges as well as dent it severely. Naruto didn't understand what was going on but he had some how gained incredible strength. However, before he could marvel at this new development another explosion rocked the fortress.
"Right I still need to get out of here," Naruto thought and just as he was about to leave the room he looks back down at the three soldiers and then to himself more specifically his bar chest. a few minutes later when Naruto reemerged from the room and back into the hallway he was now sports some new equipment.
While he still kept his black ninja sandals and orange pants he was not wearing a tight black long sleeve shirt he had found in one of the lockers, over that he had on one of the soldiers military vest, he also wore elbow pads and padded fingerless black gloves. he also wore a utility belt when she had tied two military knives he had picked up from the soldiers tying them both at the small of his back. he had momentarily thought about grabbing a gun but decided against it owing to the fact he had no idea how to use one.
Continuing to make his way through the fortress it didn't take long for Naruto to find his way out into the open area where many of the soldiers were still trying to put out the fires from the surrounding parts of a compound. quickly dashing across the open area none of the soldiers really paying him much attention probably because he was somewhat dressed alike.
Looking around Naruto tried see if he could spot Ocelot, Tatyana or even that other prisoner Clint amongst the many soldiers but with no luck. just then his attention was drawn to the sound of gunfire and a loud crashing sound. turning to look Naruto saw Clint and the now redhead Tatyana driving a jeep out of a burning warehouse. Glad to see at least some people that didn't want him dead Naruto was surprised when the remainder of the warehouse came crashing down as a strange giant looking metal monstrosity began to keep chase to the Jeep.
Figuring that those two were trying to escape and this would most likely be his only chance for freedom. Naruto began to run towards the open gate at the far end of the area, being that was the only escape route the Jeep could take. and this is when another surprise came to Naruto has he found himself running at chakra level speeds even though he could feel no chakra going to his legs.
"Nat... you need to drive faster!" Clint called over his shoulder as the massive mobile launch tank, the Shagohod, was being piloted by Sergei Gurlukovich who was giving chase. this whole mission was turning on to Budapest all over again.
The Shagohod had been one of the main reasons for this mission. Natasha had already been sent in by shield to investigate this road branch of the Russian military that set up shop in the mountains. the man running the show was Sergei Gurlukovich, along with his second command Revolver Ocelot. two members of the old USSR guard. those that followed under them did so with a blind fanaticism as they thought they could bring back mother Russia.
It was supposed to be a new prototype tank. The forward module contained the driver's cab, main propulsion systems, and most of the Shagohod's weapons. It was a completely autonomous vehicle that could function without the rear module attached, though in this configuration the rocket boosters were lost and the module had no nuclear launch capacity. The main means of propulsion was a pair of augers (or screws) fixed to runners mounted on hydraulic-actuated arms, sometimes incorrectly referred to as treads. At high speeds, these were locked in line with the rear and used to pull the Shagohod along. The arms could also be brought down diagonally and used to drag the rear section.
Gurlukovich, although he commanded his private army was not the brains behind the operation. that distinguished title fell to Ocelot. he had been in the spy game longer than Fury, to the point where there are even dark corners of the world only that man knew about. so seeing an opportunity the world security council test shield with infiltration and assassination.
The first part was easy not having been able to establish yourself a few months beforehand by posing as the new doctor on bass. when she had finally gained their trust and was able to freely move about without raising any kind of suspicion Clint was sent in. However, things did not go as planned seeing as he had been captured not too far into his mission. Ocelot had already suspected they would move against them but with luck, they had not suspected Natasha.
Then something completely unexpected happened that threw a monkey wrench into the whole thing. Not one hour after his capture the entire base was on high alert as a portal had opened up in the sky that deposited a blonde orange-clad teenager. this has been an unexpected windfall for the two shield agents. while ocelot occupied himself with torturing the kid. Natasha had been able to send a call out to shield and a new plan had been established.
They would occupy the Shagohod, and the rest of the fortress would be hit at strategic locations thanks to some shield drones. with any luck there would be able to take this thing down and get the kid out of here and find out what was going on. not had told him what she had learned from Naruto but Clint was having a hard time believing it. then again the kid had been tortured for two hours by Ocelot and kept his story straight.
"Hang on!" Natasha called that and she sharply turned the Jeep to avoid oncoming machine gun fire from some of the soldiers trying to prevent their escape. meanwhile, Clint fired off infused shots from his composite bow taking out three of the soldiers.
"How much further till we get to the rail bridge," Clint asking talk to avoid some oncoming fire.
"Pass the base and just on the other side of the runway," Natasha called out and she continue to expertly maneuver then around objects while avoiding any potential damage. just then out of the corner of her eyes Natasha saw something moving at high speeds toward them. "Naruto?"
Natasha and Clint turned to watch as the blonde teenager who was still several yards away from them effortlessly left several yards through the air, so he had managed to land in the empty passenger's seat of the Jeep.
"Tatyana?" Naruto said not understanding what he was seeing. the woman driving the Jeep was Tatiana however her hair was now red and in a different style than when it had been blind and she was not dressed in an outfit very similar to clints. a black bodysuit, black boots, utility belt, black fingerless gloves, and strange round bracelets attached to her wrist."Clint, what's going on?" Naruto asked as he turned to look at the older man.
"My real name is Natasha, me and Clint are here on a mission on behalf of our government," Natasha said as she quickly jerked the steering wheel to avoid oncoming machine gunfire.
"Kid you should still be sleeping in your cell. what are you doing here," Clint said as he fired off some more arrows.
"Yeah well after you drug me I woke up and my cell door was open," Naruto quickly said as he shot Natasha a dirty look. "I was trying to find Ocelot but instead I saw you two, you're an American Clint, from what Ocelot told me. So I figured you would be my only ticket out of this country." At this, both Natasha and Clint nodded their heads in agreement the kid did make a good point.
However, before any of the occupants inside the Jeep could say another word they were stopped as the sound of a second vehicle caught their attention. offer them looking to the side. They saw moving up along them fast was Revolver Ocelot sitting in the passenger seat of another Jeep being driven by one of the soldiers. there were two more soldiers in the back row and they were all pointing their weapons toward them.
"Ocelot!" Naruto called out in anger as he drew one of the knives he had taken from the soldiers earlier and quickly threw it. Thanks to his newfound strength the blade flew with tremendous speed and accuracy. However, Ocelot was easily able to turn his body sideways avoiding the blade. The same cannot be said for the soldier sitting behind him who was impaled through the chest with the blade killing himself. As Ocelot and his vehicle got closer, Clint was able to take out the other soldier in the back seat.
"Naruto!" Ocelot called out. "Don't think I will let you get away that easily" and with that, the two vehicles began to slam into each other all the while racing out of the compound with the Shangohad in hot pursuit. Whenever Clint would try to fire off another arrow toward the driver or one of the wheels of the Jeep ocelot expertly shot the arrow out of the air with his Revolver.
Whenever they were close enough Naruto had pulled out his last knife and tried taking a few swipes at Ocelot, but the man had been able to use his gun to block each of the blonde strikes as well as try to fire off a few shots at the teen. Naruto now regretting not grabbing a gun for one of the soldiers can only sit and do nothing.
"We're coming up on the bridge now, hang this is going to be close." It all came down to Natasha and her expert driving as she managed to keep them on the road to prevent Ocelot from moving ahead of them and continue to say out of reach of the Shagohod. Looking forward Naruto saw that they were about to cross a very large steel suspension bridge that went over a large gorge and a raging river below.
"Do it now!" Natasha called out and with a nod, Clint brought up a detonator he had stashed away in his utility belt. pressing down on the button the entire bridge began to violently shake as several explosives strategically placed at vital points began to go up. With the added weight of the massive tank, the bridge began to collapse even faster. once more they were neck and neck with ocelot as they were not racing to make it across safely before they two were brought down with the bridge.
"This guy is starting to get on my nerves," Clint called out as he fired another arrow only for it to immediately be shot out of the air, he was now down to just one as he prepared to fire it again he was stopped when Naruto got a brilliant idea.
"Clint when I say now shoot the back wheel," Naruto said as he brought his knife up and adjusted his grip preparing to throw it. Getting an idea of what the blonde was planning, Clint was just not in his head as he notched his last arrow on his bowstring.
"Now!" Naruto shouted as Clint fired his last arrow at the back tire, meanwhile Naruto throw his knife aiming for the front. just as it looked like their plan had worked Ocelot reached behind him and pulled out a second revolver. taking him he shot Clint's arrow out of the air, however, his second shot was not directed at the knife.
" Natasha, watch out!" Naruto called out when he realized who Ocelot was aiming for. pushing the woman out of the way at the last second avoiding her head from becoming a canoe.
BANG
"Awh!" as the bullet went through his shoulder Naruto let out a cry of pain as the force behind the shot and the setting jerking of the vehicle sent him tumbling back and over the edge of the Jeep door. he had already been shot once today but the difference between the two we're very evident.
"kid!" Clint called out as he launched himself over the back seat and grabbed the front of the vest Naruto had on to prevent him from falling out of the speeding vehicle. As Natasha continue to drive forward with Ocelot now beginning to fall back was unable to escape the collapsing bridge and went crashing down the gorge along with the Shagohod. not bothering to stop and enjoy the victory the red-haired woman continue to drive following the road as it began to leave them through a force.
"Here let me take a look," Clint said as he tried to provide some first day to the injured teen.
"I'm fine, don't worry," Naruto ensure the men as he could already feel his wound beginning to close up. Clint however did not look convinced.
"Relax Barton, Naruto's right you should be right as rain in no time at all," Natasha said not once taking her eyes off the road. and to further prove his point Naruto opens the hole in his shirt a shows Clint that he no longer had a bullet hole going through it.
"that's..." Clint tried to say still having a hard time grasping his mind or what he had just seen.
"Man I'm glad we're not going to be seen that bastard anymore," Naruto said as he sat forward and adjusted himself in his seat. "So are we going to take this thing to America?" at the Bronx questions both Natasha and Clint had to pass for a moment as they looked at him incredulously.
"Wait your serious," Clint asked thinking of the kid might be stupid or something. Natasha however knew better.
"No, Naruto we have a plane waiting for us on the other side of the scores will be taking that to America," at this new piece of information Naruto gave an oh in understanding.
Quickly Natasha explain what their next course of action would be to get out of the country. how she spoke to Naruto one might have believed she was talking down to him he chose her words carefully and spoke slowly. However, she wasn't trying to be condescending, back in the interrogation room when she had asked him her questions. Natasha looked him right in the eyes as Naruto told her everything. she could easily see the emotion behind every word he spoke, she knew he was telling the truth.
As they quickly made their way through the forest none of them talked with Natasha being too focused on the road Clint constantly looking behind him for any sign of pursuers. Meanwhile, Naruto just sat back in his seat as he watched the forest passing by he wasn't focusing on anything in particular. so much had happened to him today that he had not once had time to take his situation.
He was in a new world how we got here he had no clue his chakra was gone although somehow his body was at his hands, he has been tortured, held prisoner, shot at. Now he was going to a whole new place with the hopes that they would not see his abilities the way Ocelot did as a potential weapon. he was suddenly beginning to feel a deep aching in his chest as he continue to think about his home.
"Don't," Natasha's voice firmly called out she hadn't taken her eyes off the roof but Naruto knew she was talking to him.
"What?" Naruto asked not understanding what she would say.
"Don't blame yourself, you didn't ask for any of this to happen to you," she said as she continued to drive. "You can't let this break you...except that it happened and keep moving forward...keep fighting for what you believe in," after the woman's sage advice the remainder of the car ride through the forest was silent. only now Naruto was thinking about everything she had told.
As Clint silently watched the exchange between the two of them he couldn't help a small smile creeping on his face at his friend trying to help the lost teen with her own experiences with guilt and loss. when they finally left the forest they came upon a massive lake part of it was surrounded by mountain while the rest was the forest tree line. not many people knew of this ideal place. there not too far from where they were tied to a small wooden pier was a twin-engine civilian plane sitting in the water fully ready to go
unfortunately for the three of them, this was not the only thing waiting for them. around the plane by the lakeside for several armed soldiers waiting for them. As Natasha hit the brakes hard on the Jeep she quickly looked behind her but unfortunately from out of the tree line came more soldiers. they had driven right into a trap. when nothing left to do she turned the key in the ignition shutting off the engine as she and Clint stepped out of the Jeep with Naruto closely following their lead.
That's when they heard the sound of a soft humming which grew louder and louder so it became a thunderous roar. looking up Naruto saw a strange flying vehicle making its way over the tree line and heading towards them.
"That's called a helicopter," Clint said a Naruto's look of confusion at the flying metal contraption. as it finally landed and its blade stopped spinning the surrounding soldiers began to form a tighter perimeter around the three of them. It was clear enough they wanted them to start heading towards the helicopter. when the door finally open they were greeted with the site of the last person Naruto wanted to see.
"What's the matter Naruto you don't look happy to see me." it was Revolver Ocelot as confident and egocentric as ever. "you should have checked to make sure I was dead, very sloppy Nicholas would be so ashamed." this time the older man taunted Natasha and Clint who could only silently glare the man.
"What a day we've all had the Shagohod has been destroyed, along with my stronghold. However, it is not a total waste as the fates have seen it to deliver unto me the key to next-generation super soldier." At his words, both Natasha and Clint stepped forward to stand between Ocelot and Naruto. However when they did this the surrounding soldiers all raise their guns ready to fire.
"Leave them out of this you bastard if it's me you want then let's fight right now," Naruto said as he pushed past Natasha and Clint and called out the old cowboy. at this challenge, Ocelot let out a loud bark of laughter.
"I truly see what kind of man you are Naruto Uzumaki, honest, brave, and self-sacrificing. they don't make them like that anymore." Ocelot called out as he stepped forward towards the blonde teen. Naruto didn't flinch as he stood his ground staring back to finally at the man who had been his torturer not a few hours ago.
"Why don't we play one last game me and you. if you win i'll let the three you go simple as that no man under my command would lay a finger on you. however, if I win the two friends are dead and I get to ship you to Moscow to spend the rest of your short miserable life as a science experiment" consulate set as he stopped only a foot away from Naruto. despite his newfound strength and his healing, Naruto could see no real way of all three of them getting out of this place alive.
While this was going on Natasha and Clint were left unable to do anything in this situation. there has been caught if I alright should have been executed on the spot. however by some twist of fate, they were still alive and if Naruto could pull it off they might just be able to see another day.
"All right deal what's the game," Naruto said his voice full of determination.
"It's simple we're going to have a duel. we'll start back to back take ten. paces and turn will each take one shot last man standing wins." Ocelot said as he pulled out both of his revolvers, making up a show of spinning and twirling them around his fingers before he presented one to Naruto. "I know you're new to this but it's quite simple you point the end of the gun at the thing you want dead and then you pull the trigger it's so simple children do it every day."
Begrudgingly accepting the gun Naruto took a moment to hold it in his hand and examine it while feeling its weight in his hand. it was surprisingly heavy but not uncomfortable or strenuous to hold up. all day long throughout the fortress he had seen the soldiers caring different types of guns but none of them had one quite like this. during his torture session, Ocelot had rambled about his gun for a bit the colt single action army revolver or as Ocelot preferred to call it the best gun ever. From the way, he explained it this was a very old model but a powerful gun with its big drawback compared to modern guns.
You had to manually load each round into its chamber. However, it was for this reason that Ocelot love the gun so for it gave him a rush during battle to have to pause and reload his guns. to effectively use a revolver one needed true skill the man had told him.
"Fine," Naruto said is he an Ocelot turned so that they were not back to back. meanwhile Natasha, Clint and Ocelot soldiers moved back to give the two room and to avoid getting hit in the crossfire. quickly looking over his shoulder Naruto saw that Ocelot was holding the gun up so that it was parallel to his face. quickly Naruto mimic the gesture.

He suddenly remembered Natasha's words keep fighting for what you believe in.
10
quickly turning around he shot his hand forward aiming ocelot as he pulled the trigger.
BANG
BANG
The lakeside fell silent as two shots rang out. for a moment nobody moved as it was still unclear as to who the winner was. both Naruto and Ocelot still had their hands all stretched each pointing their revolver at the other. finally, Ocelot lowered his hand while spinning his gun around before holstering it. letting out a soft chuckle he brought both his hands up with the pointer and middle finger making the shape of a gun.
"Your...pretty good," he finally said before he dropped to one knee and coughed up a bit of blood. at this sign of victory Naruto finally released the breath he was holding and slowly lowered his gun. as his men moved to check on him Natasha and Clint walked up to Naruto and began to head towards the plane as none of them made a move to stop them.
before they got too far away Naruto stopped and made his way toward Ocelot. the surrounding soldiers grew uneasy as several of them prepared their guns. undeterred by their actions Naruto walked up to the down demand and presented his gun back to him.
"This belongs to you," Naruto said as he held out the weapon. Ocelot was momentarily stunned by the blonde's action however it quickly passed as he broke out into a few wheezing chuckles.
"Keep it as a sign of your skill and a token of my respect," the older man said no it was Naruto's turn to become momentarily shocked at what he had just heard. nodding in the affirmative Naruto took the gun back and began to walk towards the plane where Natasha and Clint were waiting.
"You know for a bastard you're not half bad," Naruto called out over his shoulder with a goofy grin. at this ocelot could only smirk as he watched the teen board the plane. As Natasha and Clint, both sitting in the pilot seats prepared the plane to take off Naruto sat back in his seat finally able to relax knowing that he was out of any immediate danger
The remainder of the trip would pass in a blur as they made their way across Russia towards the Bering Sea flying low to avoid any suspicion they would head towards Alaska and begin to follow the western coastline are the United States so they reached a secure military base for them to land.
Naruto had also been informed that Clint and Natasha were special agents that work for an organization called a shield. Their government's equivalent of Ambu was the best way he could explain it to himself. not only that but their director Nick Fury someone who sounded to Naruto a lot like a Hokage wanted to meet him and was willing to help him
At first, Naruto was a bit hesitant having remembered what Ocelot had told him governments would do once they learned about his healing abilities adding on top of that his newfound strength and speed. however, these fears were laid to rest as Natasha and Clint informed him that shield worked for the betterment and safety of the United States and someone with his abilities could do a lot of good for a lot of people.
Another topic that was breached was Naruto's life itself when he had first met Natasha back when she was under the disguise of Tatyana can only briefly go into his story. but now seeing as they had time to kill so he had decided to tell them about his life from joining the academy, his first mission to Wave country, the Chunin exam as well as the invasion, the search for Tsunade, Akatsuki, and the beginning of his two-year training trip.
Naruto had not been the only one to share as he had come to learn more about Natasha and Clint. both of them being good friends and agents of shield for many years Clint hasn't been the one to recruit Natasha into the organization. not only that he learned that they went by code names Natasha being the Black Widow master assassin and expert at infiltration and assassination. As for Clint, he was called Hawkeye the world's greatest Archer and shield top agent. they had even told him about their first mission together in someplace called Budapest. the whole thing sounded amazing and unbelievable.
"Hey, the kid comes on it's time to get up we're here" Clint called out as he began to shake Naruto awake. slowly opening his eyes the blonde let out a loud yawn not realizing he had fallen asleep at some point during the trip. looking around the inside of the cabin of the plane Naruto saw that Natasha was already outside talking with a tall pretty dark-haired woman. around them, people dressed in similar uniforms to her except theirs were dark blue.
Following Clint, out of the plane, Naruto saw that they had landed in some private airport seeing as it was only them but he could only assume more shield agents and several black SUVs forming a perimeter around them. just then a slightly bald Caucasian man dressed in a black suit and tie stepped out of the nearest vehicle and began to walk over towards Naruto and Clint.
"Agent Barton I'm glad to see you and Agent Romanoff made it back in one piece," the man said as he had a small smile on his face. "I'm agent Coulson." the man finished as he offered a hand to Naruto.
"Hi, Naruto Uzumaki nice to meet you," Naruto said as he shook the Coulson's hand.
"Yeah well you can thank the kid for that, he took on Revolver Ocelot in a duel and walked away," Clint said as he clap Naruto on the back causing the team to stumble forward a bit much to his amusement and Naruto's annoyance.
"That's incredible, Director Fury will want to debrief all three of you as soon as possible." Coulson said as motioned for Natasha and the woman she was talking to come towards them.
"Hey sleeping beauty glad to see you finally awake," Natasha teased once she and the woman finally reached them. This got a small smirk from Clint and an annoyed grunt from Naruto.
"Naruto Uzumaki meets Maria Hill, director Fury's right hand and second and command of shield," Coulson said as he made introductions.
Now that he was standing face to face with a woman Naruto could get a better look at her. She was a few inches taller than him and Natasha, Maria Hill had a lean build and carried herself with confidence. Her dark hair had been pulled into a ponytail, while her sharp brown eyes looked him over. After a silent moment seemingly having passed some sort of unknown test Agent Hill inclined her head in greeting.
"Hi," Naruto called out a bit uneasy at the woman's strict demeanor. Just then agent Hill brought her right hand up to her ear and turned her head sideways as of trying to listen to something.
"Director Fury will see you now," agent Hill informed them once she had removed her hand from her ear. As she began to walk forward leading them towards the furthest SUV from the plane. Once they reach the vehicle Coulson opens the door motioning for Naruto to enter however when Natasha and Clint made to follow he brought up a hand to stop them.
"Sorry the boss man wants to talk to Mr. Uzumaki privately for a moment," Coulson said Clint just shut his shoulders in acceptance however Natasha had a look of unease play across her face. The moment Naruto entered the car the door had been closed behind him.
"So you're this Naruto Uzumaki I've been hearing about." A calm deep voice called out, looking around to the only other so occupant in the SUV, Naruto came face to face with Nick Fury director of the shield. Even sitting down Naruto could tell that the dark skin bald man was taller than him, like agent Hill, Fury had a stern look about him but the thing the cotton hours is attention was the eye patch he wore and the three faint scars that ran across the damaged eye.
"I got to say not a whole lot impresses these days, but this...this was pretty impressive." Fury said he brought up a large digital pad that had on its screen an overhead satellite video of Naruto's duel with Revolver Ocelot. Naruto couldn't help but feel his chest swell with pride at the man's compliment.
"Yeah well I wasn't about to let Natasha and Clint get hurt if I could help it," Naruto said honestly as he looked the director in the eye. This statement earned him a nod of approval from Fury.
"What I want to know is what's your story, I don't like not knowing things and I don't know you," said Fury. Naruto having already been told by Natasha and Clint he would have to recount his story to Fury, just nodded his head and told his story once more. Unlike Natasha and Clint, Fury reminds silent the whole time Naruto spoke.
"So what happens now," Naruto asked as he wondered what was going to happen to him. The old spy had yet to say anything and it was starting to creep him out a little.
"Well what do you want to happen, Mr. Uzumaki, you save two of my best agents. and for that, you have my gratitude. Despite what my superiors might say I don't see you as a threat." Fury said in a serious tone as he put down the tablet and lean forward in his seat."I see a potential ally, you got heart kid and with the right training you can do some good in the world,"
At the man's words, Naruto had to pause and think. He hadn't given much thought to what he would do with the rest of his life, past the last few hours his main focus was just getting the hell out of Russia. Now however he was being given a chance to do what Natasha and Clint did, stop the bad guys and save the world. Not only that but from the way they described it becoming a shield agent would be the closest thing Naruto would ever get to Junin or Ambu status.
"Alright I'll sign me up for shield, if there are more people out in the world like Revolver Ocelot they need to be stopped," Naruto spoke with a visible determination in his eyes as he and Fury shook hands. Before they let go of each other's hands Naruto thought of something extremely important.
"I want a cool code name" the blonde teen demanded. At this Fury could only let out a small smirk of amusement before nodding his head.
"Alright then, welcome to shield... agent Gray Fox."
AN. alright hole you guys like this new story, I'll be working Naruto into the MCU with the events of the individual Metal Gear games serving as Naruto's solo movie adventures.
please review if you have any suggestions for the story a pairing for Naruto hasn't been decided yet.
also, I picked the code name gray fox not just because of the metal gear games but in actuality gray foxes have an undercoat of orange on the tops of their bodies are gray which I think will be a good color scheme for Naruto has a shield agent.
