The Love of my Afterlife
Naruto x Nanao
World of the Living - An Hour Later
The captain of Squad 8 and lieutenant of squad 1, also known as the married couple, jumped out the senkaimon and headed to the exiled soul reaper's candy shop, Kisuke Urahara, both excited about their night event. Especially Nanao.
While in the sky, (to which it took months for Naruto to learn how to sky walk), Naruto can see the restaurant he made a reservation for. He smiled, this is going to be a great night for the two soul reapers.
They finally arrived at the candy shop, waiting for Kisuke. Instead of Kisuke, it was the two kids, one reminded him of Konohamaru, and the other reminded him of Hinata but with grandma Tsunade's monstrous strength. Jinta and Ururu.
"Hey Jinta, hey Ururu." Naruto greeted.
"Hey Naruto-san. Greetings Nanao-san." Ururu greeted.
"What's up Naruto." Greeting Jinta, besides the deceased Captain Jūshiro, Naruto was the only captain Jinta respected. Although he never understood why Naruto had married Nanao of all the women in soul society, If the moocher wasn't corking the Kuchiki girl, she would have been a better option for Naruto. Or the loud mouth visored Hiyori. He already had intercourse with her before he had started a serious relationship with the four-eyed soul reaper, why not make it official. Jinta and Nanao never got along pretty well.
"Where's Kisuke?" Naruto asked.
Both Jinta and Ururu's eyes slightly widened at the mention of their adoptive father's name and face flushed on what they had witnessed by accident not too long ago.
"Uuhh." Jinta started, then they heard a door open and a groan. It was the flash goddess, Yoruichi and she was in her birthday suit.
Yoruichi turned to the married couple, who had their eyes covered, face covered with embarrassment. "Hey there Naruto. You don't like the view?" She asked in a cat-like smile.
"Please put some clothes on." Nanao said, covering both her and her husband's eyes. Secretly, she had been jealous of the werecat's figure, thankfully Naruto never cared about a woman's figure and he didn't make her feel subconscious about her figure, but still, she's growing. After giving birth, her body improved a bit, yet she's nowhere near Yoruichi, Rangiku or Orihime.
"Sorry if I'm giving your man a show but sex with-." Nanao cut her off.
"I don't wanna know. I don't wanna know." Said Nanao, face even more red. For Kisuke's sake, Captain Soifon isn't the one patrolling Karakura town. "Can we just get our gigais already?" She asked, not wanting to stay a bit longer.
Yoruichi kept her grin. "In the guest room. By the way, Lisa came here earlier and left you an anniversary gift." Said Yoruichi. Naruto smiled sheepishly and Nanao facepalm, both can already tell what kind of gift that perverted visored gave Nanao.
They hurried up and got in their gigai, not wanting to waste time on shielding their eyes, (especially Naruto), when they had a dinner reservation waiting for them. Several Minutes went by and they were dressed.
Naruto was now wearing a red tuxedo shirt with a black vest over it and black pants. As for Nanao, she was now wearing a red sleeveless dress, black thin gloves and black high heels.
Naruto looked at Nanao and smiled. "You look beautiful as always Nanao-chan." Naruto complimented. "With and without your glasses."
Thankfully, Kisuke made Nanao's gigai for her to see without her glasses because it wasn't from the world of the living and it's pointless to order a pair when she hardly comes to the world of the living. Hell, she wasn't there when Aizen attacked Karakura town.
(Where the fuck she was at? Someone tell me in the reviews.)
Nanao smiled. "You always know what to say." Said Nanao. Nanao looked at Naruto up and down. "You're not too bad yourself."
Naruto kept his grin and gestured his arm to Nanao, she obliged and wrapped her arm around his. The two married couples took off with a smile on their faces, nothing can ruin this day, not even a single hollow.
Hueco Mundo
On top of an abandoned yet broken down building, was a blue-haired and blue-eyed arrancar, who was laying on his back with a bored expression on his face. He groaned. "Goddamn!" He shouted. "When will that damn carrot top Kurosaki show up? I'm itching to fight him."
Suddenly he heard a boom and can feel a familiar reiatsu, he grunts. "What's that bastard up to now?" He asked himself. Halibel already warned him. He sighed and got up, deciding to see what he's doing.
Miles away, there was a black hair arrancar with glowing red eyes, who was slicing down hollows left and right with his zanpakuto. Although it's against his own kind, he never considered these freaks an equal and still don't to this day.
That was his least concern. His main concern is two certain soul reapers, and he'll get his revenge. In fact he died for revenge.
He's the 11th Espada.
The aspect of Revenge.
He is, Sasuke Uchiha.
Flashback - Decades Ago
Sasuke slowly opened his eyes and rubbed them. "Where am-." His eyes widened when he heard a noise he never heard. He turned and was horrified to see monsters chewing down another monster, and he… or she, is on his last breath.
After the monster was devoured, he felt a strong energy coming from them. Sasuke took off, not wanting to be next.
He was a good distance away then looked around. "Where am I?" He asked himself.
"You're in Hueco Mundo." Someone answered.
When Sasuke heard that voice he jumped away instantly and kept a distance. "Who the hell are you?" He asked, then looked at the panther-like beast up and down. "What are you?"
The panther-like beast chuckled. "I see. You're new here. I'm a hollow, like you. And this Hueco Mundo."
"Hollow? Like you?" Sasuke said then looked at himself. Whatever a hollow is, it surely isn't human. And that's what Sasuke is, not human. His arms now bone like wings. He had feathers on his chest and his feet were talons. It didn't take him too long to figure he was a hawk-like hollow.
"Okay so how do I get out of here?" He asked.
"You can't." The panther said. "You're dead." That made Sasuke's eyes widened. "You. Me. Everyone is dead here."
Sasuke had to think about how he died until it hit him. 'That fight with… Naruto.' Sasuke thought and he was pissed, beyond pissed. Naruto killed him before he had the chance to get revenge on Itachi, now he'll never get his revenge.
Sasuke looked at the panther hollow. "You seem to know more than me, what am I supposed to do now?" He asked.
"Survive. Eat hollow. You're either the predator, or the prey." The panther hollow said.
Sasuke sighed. Even in death he can still die twice. Not like it would matter since he can't kill Itachi or Naruto.
Except decades later, after eating hollows after hollows and evolving to a more humanoid form, although still covered with fragments of his previous forms, he met someone that offered him a deal he can never refuse.
"Hello, Sasuke Uchiha." Said a brown-haired man with white haori and under it was a black shihakusho, he was a soul reaper.
Sasuke heard of a soul reaper and they 'cleanse' hollows like him. Sasuke steps back and gets in a fighting position. "What do you want? And how do you know my name?" He asked.
The soul reaper kept his smile. "I'm Sōsuke Aizen and I know all about you. And I thought you might be perfect to join a group of mine." He said.
Sasuke snarled. "I'm not interested. Get lost." He said, walking past Sōsuke. Ironic his name almost sounds like his.
Aizen smiled. "Then I guess that revenge of yours is meaningless." He said and he could hear Sasuke's footsteps stopped. Now he got his attention.
Present
"What a load of crap." Sasuke said. He never got the chance to kill his brother or Naruto, to his disappointment, he was one of the few Espada that stayed in Hueco Mundo to fight the soul reapers while Naruto and Itachi were in fake Karakura town during the war.
Although he wanted to go against Aizen's orders, knowing how strong and powerful Aizen is, he obliged. Sasuke likes to think others are beneath him but this isn't the right place to think that. Even the 10th Espada is stronger than all of them.
He could care less if Aizen was defeated by a substitute soul reaper, all Sasuke wanted is revenge, and he'll get it. No one will get in his way, not that substitute, not Halibel, not the rest of the soul reapers, no one.
He fired a cero at a nearby hollow and killed it. He then felt a familiar reiatsu and sighed. "What now Grimmjow?"
Grimmjow grinned. "Still tryna get revenge? I thought you would be over that by now."
"And I thought you'd accept that loss from Kurosaki and yet you're still begging for a fight." Sasuke shot back.
Grimmjow snarled. "Whatever. Try explaining this to Halibel when she shows up." Said Grimmjow and sonido away. Sasuke snarled as well. He admits the former Espada is stronger than him but he doesn't care what she thinks, he's getting his rematch.
Then he realized if he wants Naruto and Itachi, then he'll have to get their attention.
Back to the World of the Living - Karakura Restaurant
Naruto and Nanao arrived at the restaurant. "This is the place." Naruto said. Nanao looked at the building. She remembered passing by this restaurant several times with Rangiku and other soul reapers.
"I passed by this restaurant several times before, never thought much of it." Said Nanao.
Naruto smiled. "Maybe it was a sign saying you'll come here with a special someone." Naruto said, referring to himself.
Nanao just smiled. "I guess you're right." She said. It was her first time coming here, married at that. Maybe it was fate.
They both entered the restaurant and they were met with the hostess. "Good afternoon you two."
"Hi, reservation for Naruto and Nanao Uzumaki." Said Naruto.
The hostess looked through the list and pointed to their names. "Ah. Your table is right this way." Naruto and Nanao followed the host to their table.
Before Nanao could sit, Naruto pulled her chair out. Nanao smiled. "What a gentleman." She said and kissed Naruto on the cheek. Naruto smiled and sat on his chair.
Few seconds went by and the waiter appeared at their table. "Hello I'll be your waiter and what can I get you?" The waiter asked.
"I'll have the Salisbury Steak please." Naruto said.
"The chicken stew." Said Nanao.
The waiter nodded as he wrote their order down. "Okay your food will be given to you soon." The waiter said and left the married couple.
As they waited for the food, Naruto looked at Nanao and she was looking at the lit candle and the flowers surrounding it. She's clearly thinking about something, this was the perfect time to do it.
"Nanao-chan." Naruto called. Her eyes left the candle and landed on him. Naruto then pulls something out of his pocket, it was a small box then he slide it to her. "Here's your anniversary gift." Naruto said with a smile.
Nanao smiled and opened the gift. As she opens it, she sees a silver heart shaped diamond covered locket with her birthstone above it. "Look inside it." Naruto said.
Nanao does that and what she saw left her with tears of joy. In it is a picture of Her and Naruto on their wedding day on the left side. On the right was a picture of both her, Naruto, and their son Boruto.
Naruto smiled nervously. "You like it Nanao-chan?" He asked, hoping she does.
"I love it." She said then hugs Naruto tightly and Naruto returned the hug. The nearby diners, especially the women, who saw the present exchange with interest and smiled at seeing a man giving her his love, unlike their not shit boyfriends.
"And here is your present." Nanao also pulls out a box and handed it to Naruto.
Naruto opened the box and he was hit with nostalgia. It was an elegant necklace with a green gem, it wasn't new, it was covered in scratches and a small crack. This was the same necklace Granny Tsunade gave him.
"Since the necklace meant something to you, I thought I might ask Kisuke to go to your home village and get it." Nanao said, hoping she didn't trigger him.
Naruto then sees a note and he can't believe what he's reading.
A Month Ago - Konoha
"WHO THE HELL ARE YOU AND HOW DO YOU KNOW NARUTO!?" Shouted Tsunade, grabbing Kisuke by the collar and pinning him to the wall.
"Easy easy lady." Kisuke said nervously. 'I'm starting to think every woman with huge tits is aggressive.' He thought. "My name is Kisuke Urahara and I'm friends with Naruto, sort of."
"Well it's not like you're able to see him even if I allowed you to see him.' She said, tears threatening to come out.
"Yeah I know he's dead." As soon as he said that, a stack of heavy textbooks came flying at him and hit him in the face.
"IF YOU KNEW THAT THEN WHY YOU CAME HERE!?" Tsunade shouted.
Kisuke gets up and rubs his bleeding nose. 'Damn this woman is strong, she hits harder than Ururu are they cousins or something?' He thought. "I'm only here to give Naruto that gem you gave him. It's an anniversary gift for him."
Now Tsunade was dumbfounded. How does he know about the necklace? And did he say anniversary!?
Kisuke can see the confusion on her face. "Let me explain. Naruto is a shinigami and he's in the soul society, basically heaven."
Tsunade's eyes widened in shock. She didn't want to believe him but it kinda made sense. But the part she doesn't get is why is he a grim reaper of all things. "Why is he a shinigami?" She asked.
"That's what you do in the soul society, you protect the world from evil spirits called hollows and cleanse them. You can't see them though." Said Kisuke.
If this is true then Tsunade will have to wake up and know they're being watched by these hollow things and no one can see them. "And how do you know all this?" She asked.
"That's because I'm a soul reaper too. Well ex soul reaper. The reason why you can see me is because I'm in an artificial body called a gigai made for soul reapers to blend in with humans." He explained.
"Then why that baka gaki hasn't visited me since there's a way he could come down here!?" She said furiously.
"Just like you he has responsibilities to take care of and the head captain isn't a joke. For your own sake, I wouldn't stand up to someone who can wipe out an entire village and take out Madara Uchiha without full strength." Kisuke said.
That just made Tsunade shiver. If he's as strong Kisuke said he is then she doesn't want to get on his bad side.
Tsunade looked down. "How is he?" She asked.
"He's fine. He has a wife and son. Next month is their anniversary which is why I'm here for the necklace, his wife wants to give it to him as a gift." Said Kisuke. He then pulls out a picture from his pocket. "If you don't believe me here's proof."
Tsunade took that picture and looked at them. Her eyes watered as she saw an adult Naruto, next to him was a woman with black hair and glasses, she assumed it's his wife and a blonde baby in her arms.
Tsunade smiled. She felt relief that her godson made peace in the afterlife. "Okay I'll give you the gem. I also want to give him something." Said Tsunade.
Present
Naruto reads the note and he can't believe what it says.
-:-

-:-
Naruto let out a tear, they still cared about him. He hugged Nanao tightly and cried with joy on her shoulder. "I love you." He said.
"I love you too." She said, rubbing his back. "Naruto-kun, I have some news to tell you."
"What is it?" Hoping it's not some bad news.
"Lately I've been visiting Captain Isane and we discovered." She pauses. She grabs Naruto's hand and places it on her stomach. Naruto's eyes widened when he felt a tiny spiritual pressure in her stomach.
Naruto looked at Nanao and she nodded, confirming his suspicion. "I'm pregnant." Nanao said.
Naruto jumped up with excitement and everyone who saw was laughing.

Author's Note: I know I said this is a Two-Shot fic but I realized the part I was going to put on this chapter needs to be on a whole other chapter. My mistake.
