"Speaking"

'Thinking'

Enjoy.

Everything was in chaos. Many were injured and most have died. Humanity made a retreat on Erwin's order and had managed to set a net to cover the hole made by the colossal titan. Naruto stared in defeat as bodies were being dragged away in an attempt to keep the plague from coming. Naruto roamed the roads as he kept looking for his best friends. He had to manage to find his student as a conversation was going between them.

"Commander!" Connie said as they averted their eyes to Naruto.

"Where is Eren?" He bluntly asked.

The rookies looked at each other as unease crept between them. Nobody said a word as Naruto kept on waiting.

"Where is he!" Naruto suddenly shouted which caused many soldiers to look at them.

An intense atmosphere soon surrounded them as they had never seen their commander this mad.

"He i-is that w-way." Jean answered while pointing towards the wall.

Naruto instantly grappled onto a roof as he went the way Jean appointed him too. He landed on the rooftops to see many soldiers on the floor as they cornered his best friends. He was able to spot all three of his friends as a massive skeleton structure stood behind them. He saw Armin with determination in his eyes as he stood while saluting as if he gave a counter-argument to the soldiers below him. He saw Captain Weilman in deep thought as fear quickly filled his facial expression. He saw as he raised his arm to signal the cannon on top of the wall to fire another shot. He watched as Weilman quickly lowered his straighten arm as a blast was heard from a cannon. Naruto watched slowly as the cannonball was heading for his best friends.

He took out a kunai as he threw it in the direction the cannon will impact. Everyone watched as the cannonball neared Eren as his hand was heading for his mouth. Surprisingly the cannonball exploded in mid-attack as a flash of yellow also appeared. Smoke quickly appeared as everyone focused their eyes towards the backfire of the cannons attack.

After a couple of moments, the smoke cleared to see nothing but a prolonged looking knife was stabbed into the wall with strange letters on it.

"Order your men to fall back or they will be slaughtered." A calm yet demanding voice said behind Captain Weilman.

Everyone's eyes widened in shock at the unexpected individual threatening their lives and their commander with no remorse.

"Naruto that isn't necessary" A new voice said.

Naruto turned around with anger in his eyes as he took in the new individual.

"Commander Dot Pixis, order these men to stand down," Naruto commanded with an authorized voice.

Pixis gave Naruto an assuring smile, "Weilman do as he says." He said.

Many of the soldiers slowly took their hands off their blades as Weilman ordered the men on the wall to withdraw.

Naruto turned around as he ran towards his best friends. He saw as relief crossed their faces as they watched their blonde friend run over to them.

"He really saved us," Eren said before watching said blonde tackle Armin and Mikasa before heading for him. Dust covered their precious moment as they stayed in a group hug as tears of happiness covered their faces. Their interaction was quickly stopped as they heard a familiar voice behind them.

"I need to talk with three of you," Pixis said with a smile on his lips.

After the intense atmosphere settled down Armin proposed a risky plan to pixies. To use Eren titan's abilities to flung the wall with a huge boulder. Of course, this plan had many cons to it. What would we do if Eren can't lift the boulder or goes mad and kills everyone? Of course, if they did manage to fill the whole then they will be able to retake Trost. Naruto could easily form a seal in the hole which can prevent him from entering but what will happen to Eren? Eren had the ability to turn into a titan and can possibly bring a future to humanity.

Humanity needed light to bring them forward, someone with a strong desire to kill all titans. Eren will be that support of hope for everyone. As of right now, nobody trusted Eren, and most wanted him dead. What better way was to bring people to trust Eren then right now? Will they keep him alive or have him killed because they had no proof of Eren able to help them.

The plan was to draw the titans inside Trost to one side of the walls and Eren to cover the hole. Titans will be distracted by the constant fire of cannon while an elite team escorted Eren while in his titan form. He was a part of the elite handpicked by Pixis himself.

Right now many garrisons are loading up the cannon and bringing supplies to refill them. Many were worried and suspicious about Eren's power but nonetheless followed directions. Naruto was changing his blades when he was interrupted by a familiar voice.

"Let me come with you." A firm voice said behind him.

He turned around to see Mikasa standing there with determination in her eyes.

"No." He answered before getting back to work.

She took a step in shock at the denial of her request.

"Why not!" She asked.

"Because we have more than enough to escort Eren." He answered.

"I can handle myself quite well!" She said in a whispered tone as anger swept into her.

"I'm already Eren's life, I can't have your life at risk too. Just stay with Ar-" He grabbed his cheek in surprise as a stinging feel soon followed.

"Stop treating me as if I can't protect myself! I took this path so I can protect the three of you and help humanity back to their feet. I'm not this useless girl anymore! Stop trying to protect me like if I can't kill a single titan!" She shouted angrily as she stormed off.

Naruto stared at her while she walked away as guilt soon consumed.

"What was I thinking?" He asked himself. He was grateful that no one was standing nearby as they were able to see a commander get slapped.

"You're such an idiot," Armin said from behind him.

Naruto sent him a glare as he continued to change his kit.

"You know, she is right," Armin said which caused Naruto to pause before continuing, "You subconsciously try to protect us from danger even if you try to pretend. You were less hard on us during our training and always kept an eye on us." He said.

Naruto let out a sigh before he looked at Armin. "I'm sorry fo-"

"It's fine Naruto. Eren and I already talked about it and are quite grateful for your affection towards us. What you need to do is apologize to Mikasa and stop worrying so much about us. After all, we have yet to see oceans or deserts I read about." Armin said with a smile before he too walked away.

Naruto thought about what Armin said and quickly had to agree to what he said. He did go easier on them because of the connections he had with them. He looked around to see Eren speaking with Pixis.

"You are ready?" Ian said.

He checked his gear one last time before replying, "Yes." with determination in his eyes.

He heard constant shots from the cannon as they escorted Eren to the boulder. He looked to see many titans trying to climb the wall but fail because of the cannonball that will kill them. He looked to his left to see his girlfriend completely ignoring him. He didn't say anything as Mikasa joined their group but only confirmed for her to join them. He tried talking to her but she instantly gave him the cold shoulder which lowered his spirits.

They stopped on a rooftop as they now stood above the huge rock. "Eren, are you ready?" Naruto asked

"Hell yea!" Eren replied as he bit down on his hand.

Suddenly a lightning blast appeared where he was standing and dust filled the air. They waited patiently as the cloud disappeared and there stood a muscular 15-meter titan. They gasped at the sheer titan that was surprisingly not attacking them at the moment.

"Eren you ok?" Naruto asked as he landed on Eren's shoulder. Eren's titan looked at Naruto until suddenly it used its hand to squashed Naruto as if it was a fly. Naruto jumped backward as a surprising look appeared on his face. He watched as the titan swung his arm towards Mikasa and destroyed the floor she was standing on.

Mikasa used her grappling to dodge over the arm as she looked at Eren's titan in worry. "Eren! It's us!" Mikasa shouted as she once again dodged another attack.

The titan furiously glared as it watched its victims effortlessly dodge his attacks and let an ear-piercing roar. Alpha squad stared in horror as the titan seemed to attract other titans and some from walls.

"We need to leave now!" Rico shouted.

They watched as Eren's titan form took down more titan before falling down in exhaustion and stem raised from its injuries. Naruto grappled to another building as a titan rushed him from behind. He took Kubikiribōchō out and managed to attach himself to the titan's shoulders. He let out gas as it propelled him forward. He swung his sword and with a swift cut, blood soon squirted from the cut on its nape. He turned around to see his squad quickly getting overrun by a titan as a flare with a trail of red flew into the air.

They managed to regroup on a building surrounded by titans.

"Captain! We must retreat!" Rico shouted with her blades in her hands.

"We need to take Eren back first." Mikasa countered as Rico sent her a glare.

Naruto cut the titan's pieces as it tried to grab onto him.

"Captain!" Mitabi shouted.

"We will bring back Eren," Ian commanded.

"Why!" Rico shouted as she received a glare from Mikasa.

"He might be humanity's only way of defeating the titans. Ian answered.

Naruto watched as his squad argued with each other. Finally having enough he decided to clear the titans himself. He grappled onto a 10-meter titan and flew past it. He managed to turn around and grappled back on to his nape and with a cut. He continued on killing titans as he watched his squad also fight back. Suddenly his sword and he quickly formed a rasengan in his eyes and slammed it into a 9-meter titan.

Ian stared in amazement at Naruto's display of power. He stood still until a huge hand grabbed onto him. He tried escaping but only made the titan squeezed harder as he let out a painful scream. Naruto could only watch as his captain was eaten as a huge puddle of blood dripped down the titan's mouth. Suddenly the titan fell limp as Rico craved a perfect cut on its nape.

Another painful scream was heard from his right as Mitabi's body was bitten in half. He watched in despair as half of the alpha squad was wiped out. He heard a huge thump as Mikasa cut down another 11-meter titan. They regrouped back on the same building they first came on as Rico looked around in horror.

"T-they d-d-died!" Rico said before bursting into tears.

Naruto and Mikasa watched in sorrow as Rico broke down in front of them. Naruto let go of his blade as he approached Rico and bent down to her level. He was able to see tears falling from her eyes and hitting the ground as her eyes had craziness in them. He immediately wrapped his hands around her in a comforting way as she grabbed onto his shirt. He stood there as she poured her tears into his shirt which damped it a little.

heavy footsteps averted their eyes as they watched a boulder being carried throughout the city. They watched in amazement as Eren's titan also appeared under the boulder as it carried it towards the broken wall.

They turned back around to see their other blonde best friend land on the roof with them.

"Armin?" Mikasa asked in confusion.

"I managed to wake him up!" Armin said with a bright smile on his lips. Armin watched as Naruto consoled the girl currently in front of him. He watched and turned to look at Mikasa which had a jealous look in her eyes.

"Well, we can't waste time then. Let's go protect him until he can cover that damn hole!" Naruto said as he helped Rico back to her feet. The four grappled with the help of the building as they neared Eren.

They managed to successfully escort Eren as they had little trouble on the way there. They watched as Eren lifted the boulder slightly before slamming it down and dust covered the area. Soon the dust disappeared and Eren's titan sat behind the boulder not moving.

"Go recover him, I will clear the rest of the titan, Let's go, Rico," Naruto said as he disappeared alongside Rico.

Armin and Mikasa rushed over to the titan.

"How do we take him out?" Armin asked.

Mikasa raised her blades as she performed cuts on the titan's nape. Slowly but surely they were able to pull out half of Eren's body.

"I can't take him out! The flesh is stuck on him!" Armin shouted as he struggled to pull Eren.

Suddenly he flew backward with Eren in his hands as he landed on the ground. He opened his eyes to see two 10-meter titans grinning at him. He heard a gasp of surprise from Mikasa as the titans lunged for him. Strangely enough, the titan fell before they could reach him as a figure landed on the titan's back. another person landed on the other titan as he soon recognized him as Naruto.

"Took you long enough!" Naruto shouted. The figure looked at Naruto with an annoyed look in his eyes. "Levi!" Naruto continued.

Shitty chapter will do better for the next one. Until later, stay safe.
