Here you go. Can't leave you guys waiting for me.
As Naruto's Susanoo undergoing its transformation, everyone watched in horror as they watched the Susanoo spawned a pair of skeletal arms and wings. Then, Naruto dashed towards them and knocked everyone except Mizuki as he used the Susanoo's hand to grab Mizuki and squeezed her, causing her to scream.
"You… stopped me… from avenging them…"
Minato threw several kunai and created three Kage Bunshin. Then, he and his shadow clones performed Rasengan before disappeared from everyone's sight in yellow flash. Naruto however realized what is he doing and patiently waiting for Minato's strike. When he saw Minato and his clones appeared and surrounded him with their Rasengan, Naruto smirked and vanished before reappeared behind Kushina, letting Mizuki go.
"Nice trick Minato but you are too slow." Said Naruto before he punched Kushina away, sending her crashing into a nearby mountain.
"Obito did he just…"
"Yeah I know. Marida, let's attack together."
Obito unsheathed his tantō while Marida summoned a weapon that has the blade of an axe with and a scythe. They rushed at Naruto and tried to destroy his Susanoo with rapid slashes and thrusts. Naruto took a deep breath and punched the ground, knocking away both of them.
Hayami created a spear and a shield via Demonic Chakra and attacked Naruto. She blocked his attack with the shield and struck his Susanoo with his spear but failed to destroy the Susanoo. He then knocked her away too before realized that his feet were stuck to the ground by Rosamund via energy chains.
"Naruto, please stop this! We need you because Izumi declared war against all of us!!"
"To the hell with that! I am not going to save everyone's asses. If this war can destroy Iwa and Kumo, so be it." Naruto spoke as his Susanoo knocked Hayami away and about to crush her only for Obito appeared and rescued her. "Out of my way, sensei."
"Naruto, please listen to me first-"
Naruto interrupted Obito by screaming at him, "Move! I know when and how to attack you!"
Obito fired a blazing fireball at Naruto who knocked away the projectile. He rushed at Obito but Marida appeared before him and blocked the fist with her weapon although it slowly cracking, making Marida fell to her knee.
Kushina who had just recovered used her Chakra Chains to wrap the arm. Hayami and Rosamund did the same thing by spawning flaming chains and crimson chains. Minato and Mizuki then attacked the ribcage with everything they got to rescue Marida but to no avail as the weapon at the verge of shatter.
Obito then immediately said,
"Mikhail is still alive!"
Naruto stopped and dismissed his Susanoo although he still floating and gave a curious look at Obito. He landed on the ground as Obito appeared in front of him and said,
"Back when we were at Kage Summit, Izumi appeared and attacked Mizuki. Before we could do anything, we were restrained by vines that absorbed our chakra. Just like Mikhail's ability."
"There's no way he could still alive. I saw Marida buried him and his corpse-"
"Naruto."
Naruto stared at Mizuki with a cold look.
"As much as I want to deny it… I have to admit that what Obito and Marida said is true. The last person that fought Mikhail was-"
Naruto coldly said, "Eto."
Marida then added, "And we know that Eto always want Mikhail for unknown reason."
Naruto took a deep breath as his eyes reverted back to sapphirine blue and walked away from them, heading towards the home but not before saying,
"Let's talk."
"Uchiha Izumi declared war and you want me to end it?"
"We need your help."
Naruto took a deep breath, still recovering from the effect of having his memory and power back, glanced at Mizuki and shook his head.
"No."
No? What did he mean by no?
"I am not going to help you."
"What? Why? Naruto, what about your family?" asked Kushina which made Mizuki glared at her while Naruto gave a hateful look to the woman that made her flinch. "N-Naruto."
"Minato, if your wife speaks one more time, I won't help both of you return to Konoha. Do you understand me?" Rosamund threatened Minato who nodded his head and gave a stern glare that made Kushina frown. "And do not speak about family or others. Keep your mouth shut, you hear me, Uzumaki?"
Kushina didn't say anything but narrowed her eyes at Rosamund. How dare she spoke to her like that? She then mentally cursed at Rosamund who giggled.
"Oh, Kushina. I also can read people's mind. So, you better stop cursing at me."
Minato released a sigh at his wife's attitude. Then,
"Naruto, I know that you really hate me and Kushina but please… We need you to end the war. If you don't want to do it for us then do it for your friends."
Naruto once again said,
"No."
"What do you mean by no?" asked Mizuki to Naruto. "Naruto, don't you get it? Izumi declared war and we need you-"
"I won't help you."
Minato widened his eyes and immediately asked, "What? Why? Why you refuse to help us?"
"Are you fucking stupid or what? I said no, do you fucking get it?"
Naruto get up and almost fell but he managed to stabilize himself and walked away but Mizuki grabbed his wrist, stopping him.
"You are going to let Izumi destroy everything? You want her to achieve her dreams?"
Naruto replied, "If she can destroy Kumo and Iwa then it is a good idea besides I am not going to risk my life to help all of you especially you, Mizuki, for taking away my memories and power and left me to die."
Immediately, Mizuki screamed at Naruto, "Nidaime will be so disappointed in you."
Clenching his fist tightly, Naruto pushed Mizuki away, glaring at her with anger and looked at Hayami.
"Send them back, now!"
Hayami didn't think twice and created a portal that sent them back to Konoha. Rosamund looked at Naruto and followed him who left the house, heading towards the nearby uphill.
"You really refuse to help them?" asked Rosamund as she walking beside Naruto.
"I don't care with the war or Izumi." Naruto replied coldly to Rosamund.
"What about Mikhail?"
Naruto stopped walking and looked at Rosamund.
"What they say about Mikhail is true. He is still alive and waiting for his friends to rescue him."
They both turned around and saw Hayami staring at Naruto. She then continued, "A few months after Mizuki took away your power and memories, I infiltrated Amegakure after I heard the rumor about a new Akatsuki that consisted of six Upper Rank Demons. While I was in the building, I entered a room and found a strange cocoon that feeding Demonic Energy and I saw someone inside that thing."
"Who is it?" asked the curious Naruto to Hayami.
"It is Mikhail and Eto is transforming him into a Demon."
Namikaze-Uzumaki's house
"You should keep your mouth shut, Kushina."
"You blame me for what happened? It's your fault for mentioning Nidaime to him."
Mizuki stopped walking to her room and turned around before glared angrily at Kushina.
"At least I didn't abandon him for the sake of other brats that have bijūu." Mizuki coldly said to Kushina who flinched. "Unlike you, I won't mention family or siblings or act like nothing happen to both of us. When will you ever realize that Naruto won't give you a second chance? Open your eyes, Kushina, he hates you so much just as much as he hates Izumi."
Before Kushina could say something, they were interrupted by loud explosions. A purple haired Anbu appeared before Minato and explained that someone has destroyed Konoha's barrier, which made Minato shocked since both Kushina and himself created that barrier and it is indestructible. Not even Fugaku or Itachi's Susanoo could smash it.
"Cat! Alert everyone and make sure the civilians go to the bunker!"
Cat nodded her head and vanished in a swirl of leaves as they left the house and looked up in the sky, witnessing… flying creatures?
"What was that?" asked Minato with a confused face.
"It's Demons!!" screamed Mizuki to everyone, making them tensed up since they knew that their ninjutsu and taijutsu won't work on them. "Minato, tell your men to keep a distance when fighting Demons and don't get caught in their Blood Art!!"
Minato nodded his head as he and his wife went to the opposite way while the three Yami-nin went to the nearby explosion. They jumped on a rooftop and stunned to see Eto sitting on a dying Anbu, smiling at them.
"It's been a while, Mizuki-chan." Said Eto to the three Tsuki-nin.
"Eto…. What do you want?" asked Mizuki as she summoned a katana with wing ornament, Katana of Royal Queen, from thin air while Obito and Marida summoned their favorite weapons respectively; Sword of Lone Traveler and Axe of Merciless Guardian.
"I am here for the Kyuubi's kids and don't worry, Izumi is not here. She's having a fun time with someone."
Marida glared angrily at Eto and demanded, "Where's Mikhail?!"
"Mikhail?"
Eto placed her index finger on her lips and looked at the sky with a sleepy face before she giggled and replied to Marida,
"Who knows? Maybe he is screaming in pain now? Hmm... Maybe he is begging for your help? Either way, he is in pain now and about to give up."
Angered with Eto's words, Marida charged at Eto and swung her axe to the Demon's neck but she caught the blade of the axe and jumped away as Obito brought down his sword. She smirked and landed on a nearby rooftop as she said,
"Borrowing Mizuki-chan's power won't help you defeat me, Ida-chan and Ito-kun."
Mizuki suddenly appeared behind Eto and brought down her katana, attempting to cut her into half but someone caught the blade with both hands.
"Akaza…"
"It's been four years, Mizuki."
Seeing that one of the Upper Rank Demon is standing before Mizuki. Both Marida and Obito rushed to their Kage to help her but several flaming spears burst out from the ground, preventing them from helping Mizuki who struggling to free her katana. They both looked up and saw a female demon wearing red robe.
"Nocturne." Marida whispered to the Demon that gave her a serious look.
"Three versus three eh? Sounds good, what do you think about that, Eto-sama?" asked Akaza to Eto.
"You will face Obito. Nocturn kill Marida and I am going to test Mizuki." Said Eto with a serious face to Akaza who nodded.
But suddenly they sensed three powerful chakra signature which caused not only them but everyone in the village to turn to the direction where the powerful chakra coming from.
Five minutes earlier
Menma, Mito and Natsumi could be seen panting heavily while staring at several Demons before them. They've fighting against them and used everything they got to hit them but to no avail. Ninjutsu is useless to them and taijutsu will only break their bones since the Demons' skin are tougher than the steel.
"Looks like I have no choice. Mito, Natsumi, stay back! I will end this with Kyuubi's chakra." Menma said to his sisters as he gathered his chakra and prepared to use the bijuu's chakra. Suddenly, he sensed three powerful chakra signature that made him stopped.
"What… What was that?" asked Menma as he saw a huge creature flying at them.
Back to where Mizuki and the others
"Obito, is that…"
"Yep."
Marida was about to ask again to double confirm but Obito pointed something that made Marida gasped.
As for Mizuki, she recognized one of the chakra signatures which made her smiled.
'Naruto…'
Konoha-nin stopped fighting with the supernatural beings as they witnessed someone jumped off the dragon. That person landed on the ground but the impact caused dust that made them cover their eyes. When the dust was settled, Kushina and Minato who fought alongside them gasped at the man that stood between them and the Demons.
"None of you will escape from my wrath!"
It is Naruto, wearing black bodysuit with black vest that have red accents and a red 炎 kanji on its back. He unsheathed his katana as the blade surrounded by reddish orange flame and pointed it at the Demons that trembling in fear with his presence.
"Dual Style : Raging Crimson Overdrive!!"
Immediately, Naruto disappeared from everyone's sight, making Konoha-nin stunned with his speed that not even the Uchiha could track it with their eyes. He then reappeared in the middle of the Demons in one-knee posititon with his katana upward and covered by blood. The Demons then cut into multiple pieces with their blood spraying away.
"Wh-What just happened?!" asked a completely shock Mito to everyone.
"Kakashi-nii, did you see that?!"
"No, Mito. He was too fast that not even my Sharingan can track him. What about you, Itachi?" asked Kakashi to the leader of the Anbu.
"He is too fast that he appears as a blur." replied Itachi to Kakashi.
Standing up and cleaning the blade, Naruto watched as the dragon devouring the Demons while saving Konoha-nin from their enemies. Hayami and Rosamund then appeared behind Naruto as he sheathed his katana.
"Hayami, Rosamund, help Konoha-nin to protect this place and kill the Demons as much as you could."
"Alright, Naruto, but where are you going?" asked Rosamund to Naruto who walked past the Uchiha Family and gave a tap to the smiling Fugaku.
"Don't worry, I am going to release my stress for a while."
"Naruto, don't push yourself. You are still recovering."
Naruto nodded at Hayami and saw his siblings looked at him with awe which made him annoyed. He was about to rush to Mizuki's location when suddenly Minato called out for his name.
"Naruto, thank you."
Naruto didn't say anything or bother to turn around to look at the proud Minato, instead his gathered his chakra into his feet and rushed towards Mizuki. His speed made everyone gawked except the giggling Rosamund and Hayami who whispered show off.
"Did you see that?" asked Mito to her siblings. "He ran so fast!!"
"Naru-nii…" whispered Natsumi with a smile.
"!!"
Eto turned around and tilted her head just in time, avoiding a blade that aiming for her forehead. She turned around and smirked when she saw Naruto carrying a stunned Mizuki in bridal style.
"It's been a while, Naru-chan. How are you?" asked Eto to Naruto which made Akaza and Nocturne stood in front of Eto, much to her dismay. "Gah! Give me some space! I want to see him. It's been four years since I last saw him."
Putting down Mizuki, Naruto unsheathed his katana and pointed it at Eto before said, "You will be fighting me."
"Bring it on, sweetie~" said Eto with a seductive look as she sprouted two crystallized wings. "!!"
Suddenly, Naruto appeared before her with Akaza and Nocturne flew away. He swung his blade at Eto's neck and gave a hateful glare that for the first time in her life…
She felt fear.
And she saw a silhouette of a man with crimson flame mark.
