And we're back! We'll let's just jump right into it lol
Naruto took a deep breath as he stood on the roof of a building overlooking the auction house. He could see people starting to enter it, some people wearing strange suits with bubbles around their heads. "So those are them uh? I guess Dragon was right, they feel so superior that they refuse to breathe the same air as everyone else," Naruto thought to himself as he looked over at the man who was following behind them.
His eyebrow twitched once again at just how tall the man was. He had finally reached a height where he was taller than most of his friends and now here he was in a world where half the people were MASSIVE.
"So that's Kuma huh, like everyone else he lacks any chakra," Kurama said as he sensed that despite being so large and supposedly powerful, Bartholomew Kuma didn't have any chakra in him. This made it hard to gauge just how strong these people were since ordinarily those with a lot of chakra tended to also be very powerful.
"Naruto do you read me?" They heard Dragon's voice coming through the watch they had been given that had a 'Den Den Mushi' inside. Apparently this world used snails for long range communication. Strange…but whatever worked.
Bringing the snail closer to his face, he cautiously replied, "I hear you Dragon," he said to the snail which he assumed would send the message to Dragon's own who would speak it in his voice.
"Whenever you're ready, we're in position now," The revolutionary leader told him, giving him the clear to attack.
"Right," The blond said as he began to pull in Nature Energy from the surroundings, orange markings appearing around his eyes and his eyes shifting to resemble a toad's with amber irises. With his Sage Mode active, he created two more clones to leave behind and gather energy while he fought. "Let's do this," Naruto said to himself before vanishing in a burst of speed.
Slave Auction House
"I wonder what kind of slaves they'll have today~" One of the men with a bubble around his head said cheerfully as he was looking forward to buying a new toy for his son. He heard that they had some special products today that they had just gotten in. Like the vast majority of Celestial Dragons, he didn't see anyone who lived outside of Mary Geoise as nothing more than slaves and tools for his pleasure.
"Maybe we can acquire a Mermaid, we need one for our pond after the last one died, a worthless waste of money," The woman beside him said, angry that the mermaid they had bought to keep as a pet had died after their kids decided to play with it. "Couldn't handle a few cuts," she scoffed as she felt that for the price they paid, the creature should have been able to handle a few cuts.
Kuma didn't say anything as he stood behind the two silently seething at what he was hearing. However he knew that had to pretend to be loyal to the World Government for now. As they were going to enter the building, he suddenly turned around and brought his hand up, repelling whoever had attacked them. "Get inside," he said firmly as he got a good look at who Dragon had sent to fight against him.
He had never seen the teen in front of him. Spiky blond hair and whisker marks on his cheeks. Then was his eyes, Kuma noted that they looked like those of a toad. A Zoan Fruit user?
Naruto slid to a stop as he looked at his fist, he figured that was Kuma's power to repel anything that hit the palms of his hands. "So you're the Shichibukai Bartholomew Kuma huh," Naruto said, standing back up and rolling his shoulders. Up close he could really see just how massive this man was, standing at over twenty two feet tall.
"Uzumaki Naruto, a member of the Revolusionary army," Kuma said in a cold voice, putting his bible away. He didn't want to risk it getting damaged in a fight against someone he knew nothing about. The only thing he heard about him was that he was able to stop Admiral Aokiji's attack, something which was impressive on its own. "Why are you here?"
"To kick your ass," He replied before rocketing forward towards the man, cracking the ground behind him. Kuma narrowed his eyes as his cyborgetics kicked in to keep track of the incoming blond. Ordinarily he would have used his fruit to push his opponent farther away, but he needed for this fight to go on long enough so Dragon could finish his mission.
As Naruto neared him, he swung his hand at him to swat him away before his fist could connect. When he had blocked his previous punch, he'd sensed two things coming in contact with his palm. He couldn't tell what the other thing was, his sensors hadn't picked up anything. He hadn't seen anything either with his Observation Haki. He didn't want to find out what that was, but he figured it was part of Naruto's Devil Fruit.
The slap connected with Naruto, but upon contact the blond teen was replaced with what looked to be a log that got knocked away instead. "What?" Kuma thought before feeling the wind shifting above him. He barely jumped out of the way when Naruto slammed down from the sky holding a ball of blue energy in his hand. Never in his life had Kuma seen such an attack. And that just raised more questions.
How did he substitute himself with a log?
What was that ball in his hand?
'Dragon, who is this kid?' Kuma asked in his head as he thrusted his palm at Naruto, sending a paw shaped bubble of condensed air at the blond who used the force of the attack to blow himself out of the way of his Pad Ho.
"You're pretty quick for someone so big," Naruto commented with a smirk on his face as he was starting to get a sense for how this guy fought. His power had uses both in up close and in ranged combat. Summoning six kunai from the seals on his wrist he threw them all at Kuma, spreading them out. 'Sasuke if I ever see you again, you're a genius for this,'
Kuma swung his arm, pushing the air away in front of him to knock the blades away but they exploded when the air hit them creating a massive smokescreen of black smoke. He ducked as a kick cut through the smoke, blowing it away with the force it had behind it. Kuma turned and slammed his palm into Naruto's abdomen, pawing him straight back through a building only for the ground under him to break and the blond erupting out, slamming his fist into his jaw in a powerful uppercut.
Even with his enhancements, the force of the blow was enough to lift him up off the ground and into the air. A copy of the blond came down doing a spinning heel drop towards his chest. Kuma brought his hand up and blocked the kick with his pawed hand, but only blew away only smoke that took the place of Naruto. Landing on his feet, he rubbed his chin as he didn't expect the uppercut to be so heavy. Looking back at Naruto, he noticed that there were two now in front of him.
"He's pretty sturdy," The Naruto clone said as he felt just how hard the man's chin was when he punched it. "You sure we don't need Kurama's chakra?" he asked, figuring that they could probably wrap things up much faster if they borrowed the fox's chakra to fight.
"Nah, we can take our time," the original one said since Dragon hadn't given them the signal that everyone was out. He didn't want to mess up his first major mission after all.
"Multiple abilities?" Kuma questioned as he tried to wrap his head around how someone could use so many unconnected powers. It was unheard of. One explanation was Haki, but he had never heard of Haki making clones. Part of him was happy that someone so strange and powerful had joined the Revolutionary Army instead of the Marines. However, part of him was irritated that he wasn't given a bit of information about just who he was going to be going up against.
"You've never fought someone like me," Naruto replied as the two rushed towards Kuma who got into a stance to counter the two. Slamming his hand into the ground, he used his power to cause a massive shockwave to blow back everything around him. The two Naruto saw this in time to reach by jumping back, out of range of the wave.
"Senpo: Fūton-Daitoppa!" The clone called out as he ran through the hand signs for the jutsu before exhaling a massive gale out of his mouth towards Kuma, enhancing the normally basic wind style jutsu with the senjutsu chakra within him.
"Senpo: Katon-Gokakyu no Jutsu!" The real blond yelled, breathing out a massive fireball that seared towards the Shichibukai. As the two jutsu met, the wind amplified the flames causing the fire to rapidly expand and grow in power.
Kuma held his hands up towards the incoming inferno and began to compress the air around it, trapping the fireball in a massive paw shaped bubble that started to shrink into Kuma's hand. The fireball inside followed suit as it condensed with the air until Kuma held a bright orange paw-bubble in his hands, the flames contained within. "Urususu Shokku" Kuma said as he pushed the bubble away from himself and towards the two blonds.
Naruto's eyes widened as Kuma condensed his entire attack along with the air around it into an attack before throwing it back at him. His clone rushed into action and got in the way of the bubble. As it hit the clone, the air and flames inside rapidly decompressed, resulting in a massive explosion that blew away several buildings and sprayed fire across the area.
"Senpo: Doton-Doryūheki!" Naruto said as he slammed his hand down on the ground, a large wall of earth rose up in front of him to protect him from the Urususu Shokku. His Sage Mode faded as he used the last of its power to reinforce the wall so it could withstand the combined force for the Kumo's attack and his own combined jutsu. Popping one of the two clones he left back to gather Natural Energy, his Sage Mode returned to him as the wall crumbled.
"You underestimated him, had that attack hit you it could have done some real damage," Kurama chastised as he felt that if Naruto had thought things through more, he would have realized that Kuma could realistically just push back his jutsu. Had Naruto's own attack landed against himself, it would have likely caused a bit more damage than either wanted to admit, luckily the clone had sacrificed itself to help muffle the blast.
"I wanted to see if there was a time gap between his pushes like Nagato had, but it seems he can go straight from one to another," Naruto responded, figuring that as long as anything touched Kuma's hands, he could push them back and even condense things with them like he did to his jutsu. Crossing his fingers he created two more clones of himself at his sides as Kuma rushed towards him, thrusting his hand towards the middle blond only for the the two clones to intercept, each grabbing one of his arms and janking them back while the original launched forwards and slammed his fist into Kuma's stomach, sending him flying back.
Slamming his feet into the ground, Kuma planted himself to stop his flight. Looking up he saw the three blonds rushing at him, attempting to flank him from both sides while one ran straight towards him. Raising his arms up, he began to rapidly thrust them at the shinobi, unleashing a barrage of pressurized air bubbles. The three Narutos smirked as they each threw down a red ball that exploded in red smoke.
Kuma's attack repeatedly pierced through smoke, leaving holes until the smoke had been completely blown away but the Narutos had vanished as well. Kuma looked around the area, making sure to keep in mind the area under him as Naruto had already shown that he could attack from underground as well. The blond was proving himself increasingly more tedious to fight against. He had yet to use that attack that blew away Aokiji's ice as well.
"From behind!" Kuma thought as his sensors picked up a sudden movement from behind him. Turning around he saw Naruto throwing a giant shuriken at him, raising his hand he prepared to use Puni against the blade and knock it away. However as his Devil Fruit pushed away the large weapon, a second one came right after, hiding in its shadow that transformed into Naruto holding a Rasengan in each hand.
His eyes widened as he quickly tried to swing his other hand at him but a golden claw of flame-like energy came out from one of the ruined buildings and pulled his arm back. "Senpo:Rasenrengan!" The Naruto before him yelled as his slammed the two spheres into his stomach, blood came bursting from his mouth as the attack tore apart his shirt, pushing directly into his skin. Wind whipped around them as he felt the orbs drilling into him before they exploded, sending him spiraling away into a nearby shop.
The golden arm retreated to a Naruto cloaked in golden-orange energy, his hair lightly spiked up to resemble horns. Joining the two clones, Naruto looked at where Kuma landed with a hard look. Kurama's chakra radiated off him as he waited to see if Kuma would get up or not. He needed something to catch Kuma off guard in order for his Rasenrengan to land, and he doubted that he'd expect his extended chakra arm.
His body tensed as he saw a large red paw-bubble burst out of the dust screen and zoom towards Naruto at incredible speeds. Naruto quickly moved out of the way of the paw but was met with a frenzy of light beams that came out from Kuma's month like a machine gun. Explosions rang about as the beams struck out at random, destroying the two clones and managing to hit the cloaked Naruto with sheer numbers.
Kuma limped out of the ruined building, his shirt in tatters and with two large circular wounds on his stomach where Naruto had hit him. Blood dripped from his chin as he stood tall. Despite having pushed out the pain he felt from the Rasenrengan, the damage he suffered remained and he could tell that a few of his organs had been ruptured. Had he been unable to push out the pain he felt, he likely would be unable to move now.
"You're a tough bastard," Naruto said as he stood back up with a smirk. Despite having been hit a few times, he seemed relatively unharmed thanks to Kurama's chakra cloaking him. "But you're out of your weight class," He said as several chakra arms came out of his back, each one with a large Rasengan in hand. Kuma stood his ground as he prepared to fight against the monster Dragon had sent him.
However as Kuma took another step forwards, he fell down as his legs gave out.
"You stupid pirate! You could have killed us!" The Celestial Dragon yelled as he stepped out of the auction house that had been hit by a stray beam from Kuma. The man walked towards Kuma and aimed his gun at the man's head. "If you can't beat one measly rebel then you're as good as dead!" The man yelled as he went to shoot the injured Kuma in the head.
However before he could pull the trigger, he felt his arm snap back, the sounds of bones breaking filling the air as Naruto crossed the distance in a second and slapped the gun away. The force behind such a simple act had been enough to nearly tear off the man's arm. "How about you shut up," Naruto said, his eyes burning into the egotistical man as he bellowed in pain.
"H-how dare you!? How dare you touch a god!" The man yelled in fury and agony as he held his arm.
"A god?" Naruto asked as he felt annoyed by the man. "I have faced plenty of people who claimed to be gods. People who could blow away entire cities in seconds. People who could drop meteors on a whim. People who could warp reality with their power alone," the glowing blond stated as he recalled everyone he fought who had called themself gods. "Compared to them, you're nothing," Naruto said, having enough of the man.
"Die! Trash like you have no use but as slaves!" the man yelled as he grabbed the gun from the floor with his good arm and shot at Naruto only for the bullet to drop down from his cheek. "H-how?" he stuttered as his Seastone bullet did nothing against the man. It should have killed any Devil Fruit user without fail! The man kept trying to shoot Naruto, but all of his bullets fell to the ground, flattened.
Naruto looked down at the man as he pulled the gun out of his hands and crushed it in his palm. The man paled as he saw his only weapon destroyed and his bodyguard defeated. "Now scram," Naruto growled as the World Noble decided that he would rather not fight against someone who took down a Shichibukai and instead wait for an Admiral to arrive and take care of that scum for him. As he ran back to the auction house, the smell of piss and shit wafted over them as it was clear that the man had lost control of his bowels. "I made him shit himself…"
"He deserved it," Kurama stated as he felt that the man should have died for what he did. The man felt foul. How many lives had he ruined? How many people had he killed? Likely countless…and unlike many of the people they faced in their home reality, he did it all selfishly. Not seeking world peace or to right a wrong, but rather to just show that he was above others.
Above all, Kurama hated people who forced their authority on others. Having been sealed away as a weapon time and time again. Seen as a source of power for humans to tame. Kurama almost felt a personal fury against these 'Celestial Dragons'.
Naruto sighed as he looked at Kuma who laid motionless beside him, "Naruto we're all set," Dragon's voice came through the snail in his watch.
"Just in time," Naruto said as he turned to leave only to come face to face with several Marines who were shaking in their boots as they saw that not only had the glowing man taken out one of the Shichibukai, but he assaulted a World Noble! Many of them felt that it was useless to face the man, but refused to run away as proud Marines.
"Uzumaki Naruto! You are under arrest for acts against the World Government! Surrender and you'll be allowed to live…for now," the man who seemed to be in charge of the Marine squad declared, but wasn't able to promise that Naruto would live for long since he attacked a Celestial Dragon.
"Sorry! But I have to go now!" Naruto said before vanishing in a flash of speed, rushing away from the Marines and towards the Wind Granma much to their surprise.
"Naruto what the hell did you do?!" Dragon's voice yelled through the snail as Marines started to flood throughout the island. "Get here asap! We need to leave before an Admiral shows up!" The leader of the revolution commanded, wanting to deal with an Admiral at the moment. If he did, he'd likely have to go all out against them to make sure that his crew could get out of their range safely.
"Just leave! I'll catch up to you!" Naruto yelled as bullets started to fly around him. His eyes narrowed as a wave of smoke sweeped towards him, forcing him to flip back. The smoke gathered into a man with gray hair smoking two cigars at once. From the outfit he was wearing, he seemed like a higher ranked Marine. Behind him a pink haired woman smoking a cigarette jumped into the roof to join him and the smoke-man.
"Stay safe Naruto," Dragon said, acknowledging that Naruto was willing to let them leave without him in order to keep them safe.
"So who are you two?" Naruto asked as he looked between the man and the woman. From their outfits, it was clear that they were Marines, but of a higher rank than the grunts.
"It's Commanders Smoker and Hina!" The troops below yelled out joy as the two arrived to face him.
"You're under arrest," Smoker said roughly, smoke escaping from his mouth, or maybe he was doing that on purpose with his Devil Fruit? He didn't really know or care. However he didn't particularly feel like dealing with them at the moment.
"Look, my business here isn't with the two of you or the Marines. But if you get in my way, I'll have to push you out," Naruto told them as he was ready to fight against the two commanders. He saw no reason to power down from his Nine-tails Chakra Mode just yet. From what he had just seen, the gray haired man seemed to have eaten a Logia Devil Fruit, supposedly the strongest kind of Devil Fruit.
"It became our business when you assaulted a Celestial Dragon," Smoker said scowling at the glowing blond who just sighed knowing that he would likely be unable to just walk away from the conflict.
"Well, try your best," Naruto said as the two Marines jumped into action, Hina rushing towards him with her arm extended as if attempting to closeline him while Smoker extended his arms towards him, bellowing smoke at him to ensnare the rebel. "Too slow!" the shinobi said as he moved out of the way of Hina, spinning around her and kicking her in the back. His eyes widened as her body bent around his leg, wrapping it in iron.
The smoke moved around Hina as if it were alive and wrapped around Naruto. "Got you," Smoker grunted before he saw a smirk forming on Naruto's face. The commander's eyes widened as his smoke started to twist and swirl around Naruto like a gray storm. Pain shot through his arms from the smoke, like something was grinding against them. "Haki?!" He asked as he knew that one of the few ways to hit a Logia user besides their elemental weakness was through Haki.
Raising his hand, Naruto showed that his Rasengan had been the source of the distortion in the smoke, forcing it to move around due to the wind it was whipping up. "Haki? That's the thing Dragon said could be used to hurt Logias right Kurama?" Naruto asked as he dispersed his Rasengan, the burst of air blowing away Smoker's smoke. Flexing his leg, he shattered the iron that Hina had locked around it with ease.
"I don't sense anything different about you," Kurama replied as he didn't know why Naruto had been able to hit the normally untouchable smoke-man. Dragon had discussed getting Naruto a seastone sword in order to fight against Logias, but getting one was harder than just wanting. Perhaps his chakra was interacting weirdly with their powers? Or maybe it was his senjutsu?
Smoker retracted his smoke back to his physical form, showing that his arms looked like they had been rubbed against the Rasengan. "The hell? He infused Haki into his Devil Fruit?" Smoker questioned as his arms hurt to move from the lacerations all over his skin.
"He broke Hina's cage so easily…" Hina lamented as her iron had been too weak to hold the blond for even a second. She could tell that they were completely outclassed by the revolutionary. He had beaten Kuma, and he had shown them that even with their Devil Fruits, they weren't strong enough to face him in battle. They had no chance against him.
"Damn it…" Smoker growled as he hated feeling so weak against a criminal. He would admit that he underestimated Naruto. Someone who could beat a Shichibukai wasn't a weakling. They had hoped that he'd be exhausted from fighting Kuma, but it seemed that he was still up and ready to go. Below the lower ranked Marines were starting to panic as one of their commanders had been severely injured and the other seemed disheartened.
Naruto looked at the two before turning towards the ocean where the Wind Granma was sailing. "Like I said, my business today wasn't with you," he said as he leaped off the building towards the docks. He knew that an Admiral would be on his way soon and he didn't exactly want to test his luck today.
"Hina we have to keep him busy until Admiral Akainu arrives," Smoker said as his body started to turn to smoke again. However before they could move they sensed a powerful presence washing over them. As Naruto looked back over his shoulders with blood red eyes, they could see the massive silhouette of a long eared fox with nine tails swinging wildly behind it. The pressure was crushing. They could see flashes of instances of them dying against him. Different ways in which he could kill them without breaking a sweat.
By the time that feeling of dread faded, Naruto was gone.
Hina dropped to her knees and vomited, her cigarette extinguished by her puke.
"You didn't have to do that Kurama," Naruto said to the fox within him as they reached the pier.
"They would have kept on coming if I hadn't, at least now we can go without any other interferences," Kurama replied as he admitted that he had used a bit more killing intent than intended. But those two were 'commanders' from what the grunts had said, he figured that they'd be stronger than that.
Running off the docks, he landed on the water and began to run towards the Wind Granma much to the shock of everyone watching. It was rare that a man covered in flames came running around. It was unheard of that they would go running in the ocean!
Reaching the ship, he ran up the side of it and landed on the deck much to the shock of the revolutionaries on board. Dragon walked over to the blond, intrigued by his flaming form. As far as he knew, the Mere Mere no Mi had already been eaten, so he assumed that this was one of Naruto's many other worldly powers. He was rather irate that Naruto had attacked a World Noble, but in the end what was done was done, but he also defended Kuma.
"You were reckless," Dragon commented as he kept an eye on Naruto's form before it seemed to fade away. "But you got the job done," he admitted, having seen that his newest recruit had managed to defeat Kuma in battle. Something that he didn't really expect in reality. He felt bad for his long time friend, it was clear that the finishing move Naruto used had done a rather large amount of internal damage to him. Even after pushing out his pain and fatigue, the injuries had been too much to keep going.
He would have to ask about that new form he showed off later in private. So far no one knew that Naruto was from another universe aside from himself and a few of his top ranking officers. The panic it would cause would likely be unimaginable if it was found out that there existed other worlds.
"I couldn't let that asshole shoot Kuma, even if I was fighting against him he didn't deserve that," Naruto told the dark haired man who nodded in understanding. It was around that time that posters started to drop down from the sky.
And that's a wrap for today! Sorry don't have much time!
Make sure to leave a review behind! Love reading those! Feel free to drop potential nicknames for Naruto and tell me your thoughts!
Make sure you vote on the poll! People keep post their choices but some didn't vote for whatever reason...
Also I added Hancock since people really seemed to want her. A bit late but it's gonna up for a while anyways. Probably a few more chapters AT LEAST.
Anyways have a good day!
