Glimpse into the Multiverse

by MedrickLanster

A deity decides to have some fun with the Naruto cast with the approval of his superiors. They are brought into a large room so they can view the different worlds of the multiverse that all revolve around a certain blonde ninja. Let's see how everyone reacts to the different kinds of Naruto in the multiverse. I'm sure it will be quite an eye-opener for many of them.

Hello everyone! Welcome to another installment of GITM.

Sorry for the long wait for this. I have been busy with work and I only managed to have two stories updated. I will try to avoid this happening again in the future but I can not make any promises. It really will depend on my free time and desire to write. Again I apologize for the late update. I also have many other story ideas that I may pull up a poll about which one sounds more interesting to you guys.

Now then with this chapter will finally be done with the prologue of RDK and get into the real meat of the story. Hope you are ready for this.

Hope everyone enjoyed their Halloween and had some sweets to enjoy with their loved ones.

Also, I have a few other story ideas and which one will interest you guys, but I will give more details at the end. Also, I have a special update to commemorate Halloween. I know it's late, but late than never right.

Alright, let the show begin.

World 1: RDK Part 3

Naruto splashed cold water into his face as he sighed deeply. When he woke up this morning, Naruto expected a regular day in his life. He would eat his ramen for breakfast, try to ask Sakura out and get rejected, wait for Kakashi, and do either missions or training before going back home. That was what he was expecting for the next few days until Jiraiya said they would leave for their training trip.

The last thing he was expecting was to be brought into some theater room by some god that wanted to show them different versions of himself. At first, he was excited. How couldn't he be?! He gets to see other versions of himself. Maybe see some cool techniques from the viewings and maybe show versions where he is accepted and loved by his village. Perhaps even get the attention of a certain crush of his.

However, this was not what he experienced. Sure seeing the adventures of Fairy Tail was amazing, but it all changed when he and the others found out that Acnologia was actually his alternate self. It was not bad enough, he heard about how that version slaughtered an entire country's population in a single night. That is not even the worst thing he learned as he found out just how shitty RDK Naruto's life was.

Naruto had been hated all his life. He has been glared at, he's had adults either ignore him or tell their children to do the same, he has been denied service in stores or flat out overpriced, and on rare occasions, he has had objects thrown at him or his home get vandalized. But RDK Naruto had it worse. He was beaten regularly and was…..was...raped. Naruto had to swallow hard to avoid the bile that wanted to crept up his throat again.

He never thought he would hear that happening to any version of himself. And the worst part is that there will probably be other versions of himself or those he cared about that suffered that fate. 'Great.' he grumbled. 'Now I sound like Neji.'

Naruto morbidly wondered if they would have to watch the incident occur. The thought brought a cold chill down his spine. He idly wondered if he was in the place of RDK Naruto, what would he do? Would have turned out like RDK Naruto or would he have turned out worse? In the dark recesses of his very soul, Naruto knew that he may not have handled it as well as his counterpart. In fact, a part of him knew he could have easily shattered after that.

Naruto looked up into the mirror and looked at what was supposed to be a reflection, but what he saw instead was RDK Naruto staring at him with blank, soulless eyes. Naruto shivered at the gaze he was receiving, the reflection then changed, and this time to two people. Minato Namikaze and Kushina Uzumaki.

Above all else, the biggest revelation Naruto has received was the identity of his parents. For years, he wondered his parents where and what kind of people they were. He was envious of other children as they walked around with their parents. He asked the Sandaime who his parents were multiple times, but all he would tell the young boy was that his parents died during the Kyuubi attack. Only now he finds out that the Sandaime had lied to his face this entire time. He knew his parents were! But he decided it was best if he did not know the truth until he deems him ready.

'Just like how I was not ready to learn about the Kyuubi.' Naruto thought bitterly. All this time, the old man denied him the information that should have been rightfully his. And not just him. Kakashi, Jiraiya, and Tsunade all knew about it too and decided to not tell him either. The former two especially pissed him off as Kakashi was his father's student but that bloody scarecrow never approached him when he was growing and being part of his anbu does not count even if he was in it.

Then there's Jiraiya. His fucking godfather, he never once approached him even once. And remembering what Medrick said to him just pisses him off more. The god was right, Jiraiya could have found easy workarounds to meet him and look after him. But nope! He waits until the chunin exams to approach and barely teaches him the summoning jutsu and nearly kills him to get him to meet the fox to get access to his chakra.

A dark chuckle echoed in his head. 'It hurts doesn't it, boy?' a familiar voice asked.

'What do you want fox?' Naruto demanded.

'Come now. Can't I be concerned about my Jailor's wellbeing?'

'If that was your attempt at a joke, I am not amused.'

'Well then if humor does not work, let's try this. How does it feel?'

Naruto frowned. 'What?'

Naruto could feel the sneer of the fox's maw. 'How does it feel to learn that it was your parents that sealed you within me? That the very people that you trusted have lied to you all your life.'

Naruto remained silent as the fox continued to mock his jailer. 'It stings, doesn't it? That despite them saying they cared about you, I, the being that has been trying to take you over and kill you, has been more honest to you than them.'

'I would still have parents if you hadn't killed them!' Naruto roared.

'Then your parents shouldn't have tried to seal me again after I had been released!' the fox shouted back.

'What were they supposed to do?! Let you destroy their home in your rage?' the blonde asked.

'They should have left me alone. For nearly a century I and the bijuu have been imprisoned to be used for your ninja's entertainment.' Kyuubi growled.

'I curse the day that bastard Madara took control of me that day. I curse the day that Hashirama restrained me with his wood release and then his wife sealing me into her. And I curse the day that Hashirama collected all of my brethren and traded us away as if we were toys to be given to children!'

'And then I have to be sealed two more times. One in your damn mother who caged me like a fucking animal with stakes stabbed into my tails, hands, feet, and chest (Naruto flinched as he even he could admit that would be unbearable to live in for years) before I was taken control of by those damn eyes again of Madara! Then your parents decided to seal me into you! All for preserving the balance between the shinobi system and believing a foolish child like you could defeat the mask Uchiha.'

The Kyuubi growled loud as chakra leaked from his cage as KI emitted from the entire seal from his rage. 'I curse you and all who would dare preach about being a shinobi. You are all nothing more than filthy greedy abominations on this planet.'

The demon fox was not always such an embodiment of rage and hatred. As he was once a more calm and benevolent being. However, after centuries of being hunted and hated by humanity, the very same race that took his father's gifts and made it into a weapon for their wars, his compassion and empathy turned hatred as that was all he was given to know or understand.

What made it worse is that the very descendants of his father began to manipulate him and his siblings to keep some foolish system of balance they had created from their inability to understand one another through any other means except for fighting and killing one another.

None of his jinchuuriki ever tried to see it from his point of view, all they saw was a powerful creature that they saw was too dangerous to run free and had me caged for the benefit of the world, they said. To keep his rage in check, they said. Who were they to judge him when they couldn't go a few years without starting another war to mass murder each. And this weak brat that was his current will be the same as well. They were all the same. That is how all humanity is. They can never change.

Naruto stayed silent as he digested everything the Kyuubi or he should say Kurama told. Looking at it from the fox's perspective, he can see why the fox would be so angry all of the damn time. Everyone just saw him as a monster that needed to be restrained and locked up or as a tool, a weapon, to be used in wars they wanted no part. And to add salt into the wound he was controlled by the sharingan not once but twice and both instances ended up with him being sealed. Naruto shuddered as he thought about how the fox was locked up like an animal or crucified on a giant boulder. He can see why the fox would be so happy to get out of that as soon as possible.

Strangely, Naruto can relate a lot to how Kurama and the other bijuu have been treated. He was never seen as Naruto Uzumaki. The village saw him as the demon brat. They never saw the boy, only what he held within him. He was hated and disregarded by everyone in his home. Kurama was never seen as a sentient creature, but a mass of chakra that needed to be retrained and used as a weapon.

It never occurred to Naruto that the bijuu could feel just as bitter against humanity and their vessels for their terrible lives just as he hated the fox for making his life miserable. He knew that the fox would never apologize for what he did on the night he was born. At least not yet. But from what he saw from the RDK world, there was more to the fox than a raged filled behemoth. He can be compassionate…..in his own way. But he doubts he'll do that any time soon, but maybe watching these different worlds and actually trying to learn about him. Maybe things can be different between them and end this merry-go-round the fox has been going on with his hatred against humanity. Plus despite everything he has been through, some people saw him as a person and not as a jinchuuriki or a demon fox. Even if some of them lied to him about things he should have been told, despite how angry he was with them, he can tell they still did care about his well being. Whether that changed or not in the future, remains to be seen.

After mulling over his thoughts a bit more, Naruto spoke to his tenant again. 'I have been lied to all my life and maybe you're right in some ways. But I am not alone.'

Kurama raised an intrigued eyebrow. 'Oh?'

'My friends know about you yet they still accept me. They see us as two separate beings unlike most of the village. Even though the others like Jiraiya, Tsunade, and Kakashi lied to me, they never saw me as the fox.'

The great fox grumbled. 'Has much as I loathe admitting this, I am slightly impressed that those humans sided with you, though I was not entirely surprised by that Hyuuga girl not changing her opinion of you.'

Naruto blinked. 'What?'

'I have the ability to sense negative emotions, yet I never sensed any of that kind from that girl. All I could sense were that abhor infatuation she had for you.' Kurama responded with an eye roll.

Naruto's eyes widen to the size of dinner plates. 'You knew this whole time?!'

Kurama deadpan. 'Boy, you have to be blind, death, and stupid to not know that the girl had feelings for you.'

Naruto groaned as he slammed his face into the sink. 'Great. Just great.'

"How are you feeling, Naruto?" Naruto raised his head and turned to the voice that spoke the question. It was none other than Shikamaru. The Nara heir had a worried look on his features.

Naruto shrugged. "As well as I can be Shika. All things considered," he replied.

Shikamaru nodded. "I get it. I can tell you that everyone else is feeling similarly."

"Where is everyone?" Naruto asked. "Most of them have returned to the viewing room and are just waiting for you. Hinata would have come to get you, but I decided it's best if I do it." Shikamaru explained.

"Oh." Naruto sounded a bit down. Shikamaru raises an eyebrow at this. "What? Disappointed that she didn't come? Or would have preferred Sakura?"

Naruto groaned in annoyance. "Shut up, Shika." The two walk back to the theater room where everyone was just relaxing before they began the viewing again. Anko was pigging out on some Dango. Lee and Guy were eating some VERY spicy curry. Neji was having some tea. Ino, Sakura, and Tenten were enjoying a sweet drink. Hinata was indulging in some cinnamon buns. Naruto was shocked as he never expected to see her eat something as fast as he did with ramen. Choji and Kiba were feasting on some meat. Jiraiya and Tsunade were enjoying some sake. Shizune and Kakashi were enjoying some fish together. Kurenai was drinking some wine with some pasta. Naruto decided to eat a few bowls of ramen.

After everyone had finished their meals, they sat down and turned to Medrick. "Are you guys ready?" he asked. Everyone nodded. "Yeah let's keep going," Tsunade answered for everyone.

"Now I hope you get ready because some interesting information is going to be dumped on you guys," Medrick informed the group.

"How interesting?" Naruto asked. Medrick smirked in response. "Let's just say the bombshells will be very shell shocking."

From within the seal, Kurama adjusted himself as he prepared himself for the next viewing. "Hm, let's see what we learn this time." A bright flash envelops the mindscape of his cell as several barrels of food and drinks appeared with a large note for him to read. "Hm?"

Thought you could have something to feed yourself for entertainment as you watch. You should pay close attention as this next viewing will be important for you as well.

'Hm. How interesting. Let's see what you have for us this time, god.'

"Now then let us begin!" Medrick declared as the next viewing began.

The silence that encompasses the room was deafening. Kurama and Hinata were looking between the dragons and Naruto in shock. Naruto killed his surrogate father? Why though? What would cause him to do such an act against the being who most likely raised him like a son? Power? Revenge? None of those matched with Naruto's beliefs or ideologies.

"I would be inclined to agree, but that Naruto is very different from the one they probably remember," Shikamaru said.

"That's an understatement." Naruto and several others muttered in unison.

But they had no idea how long it has been for Naruto after his execution. So it's possible that he changed to someone much more bitter and vengeful than his old self. However, any doubts were removed when they saw how the aforementioned blonde was taking the appearance of the two dragons.

"This ought to be interesting." several said.

In layman's terms, Naruto was shaking like a frightened rabbit. They could tell Naruto was terrified of speaking with the former dragon king, let alone being in the same room as him.

Everyone breathed in as they saw the look on Acnlogia's face. Kiba summed up everyone's thoughts with one word. "Damn."

"After hearing everything he's done and what he just did, I never thought I would ever see this Naruto ever have a face like that," Choji said.

"Not just anyone would brush off murdering their father. This Naruto, despite how he acts and what he has done, still has a piece of his humanity intact."

"Well, there's that and the fact that he listens to his Hinata-sama when she tells him to stop," Neji replied.

"Guess that's the power of love." Ino gushed with Naruto and Hinata blushing.

"Or he's just plain whipped," Anko suggested.

"That too."

'I wish they shut up about that.' A blushing Naruto demanded with Hinata thinking similarly with a blush on her entire face.

Speaking of Naruto, said blond could not look Thoron in the eye. He had disgraced the great legacy Thoron had left him with his actions during the Dragon Civil War. He spat on his ideals and his last wishes. That was why at the moment he had his head lowered in shame, not being able to look at Thoron directly. As far as he was concerned, he should not be king.

Naruto tilted his head in confusion. "He never wanted to be king? Then how come he got called that? Is it self proclaimed?"

Shikamaru shook his head. "No, I doubt it's just that. Even though he may do it to boast his title around. There are several ways one becomes king to a throne, similar to how a clan heir can become a clan head." he explains.

"The most obvious one is that the heir succeeds the throne from the previous king. Another way is that a certain event or ritual has to occur for a successor to be chosen. And the most simple way is to kill the king and take the title though that won't usually work with normal societies. Though dragons may have a more warrior mindset of the mightiest rules, we just have to wait and see."

And yet, none of the dragons came after him to take the crown. Was it because he was the strongest, or because the crystal still saw him worthy? But why though?! He had done nothing to earn that title or its benefits. All he did was bring the dragon race to near extinction.

Kiba blinked. "Crystal? Could that be what symbolizes someone as the dragon king?"

"And from how Acnologia says it, this crystal might be sentient to some extent and chooses who is the king," Shino said.

"Guess that covers the ritual angle, Shika," Ino replied.

Shikamaru nodded. "Pretty much."

"That may also explain the grove on Thoron's necklace. It's for the crystal." Neji said.

"I wonder if we will ever see the crystal?" Naruto asked.

"All in due time, viewers," Medrick replied.

Hell, all he has been doing for the last 400 years is destroy countless empires and civilizations. Even if many were ruled by tyrannical men or were followers of Zeref, he didn't just kill the king, he killed everything. Every man, woman, and child was eradicated by him. It was a literal genocide. He brought nothing but death, destruction, and annihilation to anything and anyone that came in his line of sight. All in the name of filling the empty void that had not closed in those 400 years.

Everyone gasped. "That's all he did for 400 years? Just killing and destroying anything he could find. That's how he coped with his pain?" Tsunade asked.

Medrick shook his head. "Not solely. But it was what he did for a majority of those four centuries."

"What did he do in-between the mindless destruction?" Jiraiya asked.

"Well, Acnologia swiftly realized that constantly destroying everything with nothing and no one that has the power to fight back can get rather boring. So he found some activities to entertain himself.

"Such as…." everyone began but Medrick shrugged his shoulders. "Spoilers." Everyone grumbled about troublesome gods, much to the amusement of the watcher god.

The blonde was cut from his musings when a black claw touched his chin and lifted his head. He locked his eyes with Thoron. While he expected rage or disappointment, he did not expect a gentle expression on Thoron's face. He merely smiled at Naruto's bewildered look.

"It has been a long time, my son. You have grown to become a magnificent dragon, Naruto." Naruto's eyes widened and just gawked as he pushed the claw away and looked at Thoron in anguish and confusion.

"Never expected that type of response, I guess?" Shizune suggested.

"Let's see how he reacts to them," Kakashi replied.

"I sense a bit of a rant coming in," Anko said.

Several nodded. "Same here."

"How can you say that to me? How can you say all that after everything I have done?! I killed you! I killed countless of my brethren in cold blood! Hell part of me enjoyed it while I saw their lives being taken away as their eyes lost their light and they fell into the cold earth. For dragon's sake, I drank and bathed in their blood and ate some of their bodies and organs?! HOW CAN YOU STILL LOOK AT ME WITH SUCH LOVE AND AFFECTION?! I DON'T DESERVE TO BE LOVED?! WHY DON'T YOU SCORN ME?! WHY DON'T YOU HATE ME?! ANSWER ME!

Everyone was dead silent as the color drained from their faces. Even Kurama was surprised at this new tidbit of information. "He drank their blood and actually bathed in it." Naruto began as he gulped. "He…..He committed cannibalism?"

"He…..oh kami." Hinata gasped out as she trembled in shock and fear.

"I am going to be sick." Kiba moaned.

"Get in line." everyone else said in unison.

"How could he?" Tsunade demanded. Medrick sighed. "I will say that he did not just decide to do that on a whim. This was a slow decline in his sanity and rage throughout the war he was participating in at the time. And the trigger that caused him to go, full cannibal, was a betrayal that made him finally snap. But it was one final event that really destroyed who RDK Naruto used to be and caused what he became now." the god explained.

Medrick raised his hand. "Before you ask, those events will be explained later on."

"Will we have to watch it?" Naruto asked with some trepidation.

"Yes."

'Fuck.' everyone thought.

By the end of his rant, Naruto was on his hands and knees opening weeping and shaking. He couldn't understand why his father still loved him after everything he has done to him, to their people, to his legacy. Hinata could not stand anymore and watch her beloved look so broken. The last time she saw him like this was before his execution. She rushed to his side and did her best to comfort him despite his protest. She did not care about the things that he had done.

It's been years since she saw him and people change as tragedy happens to them. She did not care if he was the reincarnation of evil itself. She promised she would love him for all eternity even if it meant falling into the depths of hell to be with him. She would jump off the edge without a second thought.

"Awwwwwwwwwwwww." many of the girls, and some of the guys, gushed out loud much to a certain pair's embarrassment.

"Now that's dedication." Kurenai complimented.

"Love for all eternity and jump straight into the depths of hell to be with Naruto. My. My Hinata who knew you could be so passionate about your love." an envious Ino replied.

"I hope we get to see some blonde hyuugas in these." Anko teased as Hinata and Naruto blushed a deep scarlet red.

Medrick smirked. "You might just get your wish."

"EEEEP!" Hinata squeaked as steam billowed out of her head.

Despite his embarrassment, Naruto was looking at RDK Hinata in shock. 'She would go that far for him? Even after everything he said and did, she still loves him? Is that what REAL love looks like?'

The one thing Naruto wanted more than anything was to be acknowledged and accepted. To be loved. He thought by becoming Hokage he could get the love he saw everyone was giving the Sandaime. But while his friends acknowledge and accept him, it's not the love he wanted. He thought by getting Sakura to date him, he could get that love. But she always rejected him and went after Sasuke. It was one of the reasons he made Sasuke his rival.

If he could become better than Sasuke perhaps he can prove his worth to Sakura so maybe she'll go to him. But here is another version of him that's basically of everything he is and yet he has someone that would always be by his side no matter what. Someone that liked him and he never noticed. Something that everyone else probably knew, which made him want to smack himself even more. He turned to see his version of the hyuuga girl. 'Would my Hinata do the same?' Naruto shook his head in exasperation.

'Get you head out of the clouds. You're not even dating Hinata. Hell, you barely know her!' But maybe that could change. Naruto could only hope.

Meanwhile, Kurama looked at the scene with a sad expression on his maw. He knew what it was like to have failed a father and to have killed thousands of people for years.

This caused everyone to blink in surprise. "What exactly does that mean?" Jiraiya asked with some suspicion.

"Did the Kyuubi have parents?" Naruto asked before hearing the angry growls of his tenant. 'That is not your concern, ningen.'

The blonde frowned in annoyance. 'Don't have to be such a crouch.' Naruto grumbled.

"As far as I know, none of the bijuu have any type of parents as they are beings of sentient chakra, not flesh and blood. So I have no idea who the other Kyuubi is referring to." the toad sage replied.

It was like him and Naruto were reflections of one another. It actually made him feel some pity to know that someone he came to care about like a son ended up as he did in his life.

"EXCUSE ME?!" many people exclaimed in shock and surprise.

"SON?!" Jiraiya, Tsunade, and Kakashi shouted in outrage.

"That Kyuubi sees me as his son?" Naruto shouted. His eyes narrowed as he heard his fox laughing hysterically with the seal. 'Quit laughing fox!'

'Aw, what's the matter kit? Why are you so angry at your dear father?'

Naruto felt several veins on his head throb as his eye twitched erratically. 'PISS OFF!'

He looks to Kushina and Minato to see them looking at the distressed Naruto in sorrow. They must have realized that Naruto's cold, and sadistic persona was a facade to hide away from the shame, guilt, pain, and, most importantly, the anger that lay deep within. Kurama just had to chuckle cynically. No matter how much time passes, some things would never change. In Naruto's case, wearing a mask to hide his true feelings.

Naruto flinched as everyone turned to him. "What the hell does that mean?" Shikamaru asked.

"Naruto?" Jiraiya began. Naruto, while still angry at Jiraiya, was too distracted to focus on his anger. "Y-Yeah?" he asked

"Do you have any idea about what that other Kyuubi is talking about?"

Naruto shook his head. "No, I don't."

'It is unwise to lie, boy.' Kurama warned.

'SHUT UP!'

"Naruto I have to agree with Kurama. It's unwise to lie." Medrick advised.

"I don't know what you're talking about!" Naruto retorted.

"Yes, you do. Since the moment you can understand words and speak, you have been hated by your village. All for something that is beyond your control. All the hatred and anger could break any normal person. But not you." Medrick explained. Everyone stayed silent as they let the god speak. The rookies had to keep their tempers in check as they heard about Naruto's upbringing even more.

"You could not understand why you were hated so much. But you hated how they looked at you. You wanted to make them stop looking at you like that. And then you came with an idea. If you acted like a fool and pulled pranks you may get the people's attention. Even if it was bad, any attention was better than none."

Everyone who did not know about this had their eyes widen as they looked at the blonde in shock and guilt as they realized how little they knew about that knew looked at Naruto in concern as he held his head down.

"Shut up…" Naruto said lowly.

"So you crafted your clown mask. You practiced in a mirror to continuously smile and have that smile every day on your face no matter what happens while you bury every negative emotion you had. You smile at everyone and that's all they see. Yet nearly all of them lack the sight to see the undying sorrow and loneliness beneath those eyes and the cold hatred that lies beneath them as well."

"SHUT UP!" Naruto exclaimed as everyone flinched from the blonde's sudden outburst. "THAT'S A LIE! I may be angry at Konoha, but I don't hate it."

Medrick sighed. "I prefer you don't lie to me, Naruto."

"I AM NOT!"

"Are you going to say this to me? Especially with the evidence staring everyone in the face." Medrick asked as he pointed at the screen.

"What does one version keeping his problems bottled up have to do with me?!"

"It has everything to do with you since nearly every version of you suffers from the same problem." the god retorted.

"And what's that?!" Naruto demanded.

"You wear a mask to conceal your true feelings and before you try to deny again why don't we ask two individuals. Kurama, I know you can hear me. Since you have been with Naruto since his birth you should know the answer to this."

Naruto continued to glare at the god as his furry companion spoke again. 'It's never wise to lie to a god, kit.'

'I don't hate Konoha!'

'You may deny it all you want, but I have been with you all your life. I know all of your inner dark secrets. Deep down a part of you truly despises your village and wishes for it to burn.'

'You're lying!'

'Me? What do I gain from lying to you? You carry a palpable amount of hatred boy. And the more you deny it, the easier it would be for my power to consume you.'

'What do you mean?'

'I have spoken enough for now on the topic. Let the god continue this interrogation.'

"Now then I can see you're still not convinced. Hinata?"

The indigo girl flinched as she now had the attention of the entire room. "Y-Yes?" she asked.

"Can you provide your input on Naruto's mask?"

The young girl gulped as she turned to her blonde crush. "Naruto I have noticed how when people say terrible things to you, you always force out a smile. I can tell it's fake because you usually have your eyes closed and your smile is stretched out too much. You always give it when something is bugging you. And I have seen when someone really gets under your skin, I can see you have brief flashes of anger pass by your eyes."

Everyone, including Naruto, just stared at the Hyuuga in surprise. Naruto was shell shocked at how well Hinata could read him. Sure he knew how prospective she could be during their talk before his fight with Neji, but he never knew she saw even that. It was weird and kind of frightening. But a part of him was also delighted to know that someone could understand him that well. It made him feel weird like a warm sensation bubbling in his stomach and chest. He wasn't sure what this was but he did not dislike it either.

"Well as much as I would like to say that I told you so, we have to put a pin on this conversation for now." Medrick declared.

Back with Naruto, he continued to sob while Hinata held him as tightly as she could and whispered comforting words from her. He did not deserve such a gesture from such a kind woman. She was light personified, while he was darkness in its worse form. Yet he held her as tightly as he could as if she was his lifeline.

'Maybe I can be that kind of comfort for my Naruto,' Hinata thought to herself.

Thoron looked down at his son in sadness. He knew that Naruto had suffered far worse than most dragons have suffered in all of their lifetimes combined. He knew that he had bottled all his anguish, but he needed to get back to business to help with the mission ahead.

"Naruto, look at me." He said, and Naruto obeyed.

"What happened 400 years ago was a tragedy. A great tragedy indeed. However, it was unavoidable with how the war was going for both sides. Someone would have ended just like you and the same result would have occurred, regardless of what you or anyone else did. None of the dragons blame you for what happened. Not me. Not the Chronicler, nor the Elementals or the other dragons. Didn't you ever wonder why none of them nor our allies did anything to stop you? It's because they felt some responsibility for what happened to you and decided to leave you alone in your grief and ordered the remaining dragons to go into hiding. Now that you have calmed down to a reasonable level, The Chronicler and his father decided to set this little meeting up and to give you something."

"What do they want to offer Naruto-kun?" Hinata asked for him.

Thoron smiled at the girl before caressing her cheek with one of his claws.

"So you are the famous Hinata. Naruto would always speak about you for a very long time. I must say you as beautiful as he described. He would always talk about you most of the time calling you his lavender queen, or moon goddess. He especially talked all the time when your daughter asked him about you. I am glad I had a chance to meet my son's, first mate."

"Hmmmmmmm." several hummed in amusement.

"Oh, Naruto you have a way with words. Lavender queen and Moon goddess? I wonder what our Hinata thinks about this?" Ino gushed.

"Hm, I bet she'll love to gain such affectionate titles from her crush.~" Anko teased.

Hinata squeaked again. "EEEEEP!"

"Huh," Shikamaru uttered. Choji turned to his oldest friend in confusion. "What's up, Shika? Thinking about what Naruto should call our Hinata?"

"That would be too troublesome for me, Naruto can handle it. I was thinking about Thoron saying those two having a daughter."

The Nara heir's words caused everyone to blink as they thought about what Thoron said to the older Hinata. "Now that you mention it….." Tenten began

"He did," Asuma confirmed.

"Oh you two had a kid, oh I can't wait to see them." Anko teased.

"K-K-K-Kids with Naruto-kun?!" An atomic red Hinata squeaked.

"Wait isn't Hinata a little too young to have kids?" A suspicious Kurenai asked.

Anko smacked her best friend on the shoulder. "Oh don't be a prude, Kurenai. That Hinata looks like she's in her early twenties at least and if we take into account what the fox said when he first spoke to Naruto. A little young, but considering our life expectancy maybe she wanted to have one before anything could happen to her. Look what happened to Naruto."

'I think I know who their kid is.' thought several people in the audience.

Hinata was literally steaming red from what Thoron told her. Beautiful? Moon goddess? Lavender Queen? How can Naruto swoon her over with such simple words? They only met after a few years and yet he can sweep off her feet so easily. She looked at Naruto and saw his eyes. She saw that he meant every word and that they were still true to him even now. She wanted to take him right then and there, but something Thoron said got her attention and caused her to look at the dragon in confusion.

Several people blushed red from listening to RDK Hinata's thoughts, none more so than Naruto and Hinata. "Damn that girl is a horny vixen," Jiraiya said, which led to Kurenai and Tsunade smacking him over the head.

"It's always the quiet ones that get you," Ino said.

Anko gave a very perverted grin. "And they're the biggest screamers in bed."

"EEEEEP!"

"ANKO!"

"What you know it's true, nai-chan." Anko gave her friend a saucy smirk. "Especially from personal experience."

"HOLY SHIT!" That was the last straw for some of the audience as most of the guys went flying due to blood, Hinata fainted with steam erupting out of her head and blood oozing out of her nose, and the other girls were either blushing terribly (in Kurenai's case trying to bury her face into her hands and get the ground to swallow her), and Anko cackling madly.

Medrick then whistled loudly as he got the attention of everyone still conscious. "Alright enough. While this is entertaining, I need everyone to be conscious. The last thing I need you two doing is "traumatizing" the kids." he said in an amused tone.

'Too late for that.' thought most of the audience, including the barely conscious group of guys and girls. Though traumatizing would not be the word they would use. After calming everyone down and conscious, they resumed (though it should be noted that Kurenai and Tsunade were glaring at Anko, and a pair of indigo and blonde-haired genin could not look at one another).

"Thoron-otou-sama, what do you mean daughter? Naruto and I have no children."

Thoron smiled at his nickname as did Chronicler, Naruto, and Kurama.

"Did you forget the time between Naruto and yourself before he was executed?"

Hinata blushed a deep red again and nodded remembering her time with her beloved.

"Oh, I can tell there's a naughty story behind that blush."

"Enough Anko." an exasperated Tsunade ordered. Anko pouted but relented, much to the relief of Naruto and Hinata.

"Y-Yes! Now about this offer?" She asked.

"Before that, I think there are some people that need to be informed about some events. Right, Naruto?" The Chronicler spoke this time. Naruto nodded and got up before walking over to Kurama and his parents again. Naruto looked at them seriously, while the two were nervous but remained calm.

"What I am about to show you is my life up till my execution. I have no reason to lie to either of you, so know this is the absolute truth. I swear a Blood Oath to the Dragons I am showing you the truth." After he finished that, lightning boomed within the void confusing everyone except the dragons and Naruto on what it meant. The Chronicler decided to explain.

Everyone felt a shiver go down their spines. "Well, then the plot thickens." Shino comments.

"Is that normal for an oath to cause lightning?" Naruto asked.

"In this world about that Oath, yes," Medrick explained.

"A Blood Oath to the Dragons is a sacred vow that a being makes that they swear to uphold and accomplish the task they promised to keep. Failure to do so would mean eternal pain and suffering for the person that broke that solemn oath."

Everyone whistled. "Damn."

"That's one hell of an oath," Anko said.

"He must be serious if he's going this far," Asuma replied.

Everyone looked at Naruto in shock. He would really take it that far to prove he was telling the truth? Then again it was just like him to do something so crazy. Naruto then closed his eyes.

"Byakugan!" When he opened his eyes, they glowed a pale white. Hinata looked at him confused as to why he called it that.

"I named it Byakugan, because of how my eyes looked and some of their abilities match yours. Plus it was my way to honor you. It made me feel like I had a piece of you with me at all times."

"Awwwwww.~" the girls gushed as Hinata blushed again.

"He honors you." Ino teased.

'I hope this ends soon.' Naruto and Hinata thought.

He smiled when Hinata looked like she was the happiest woman on the planet and gave him a big fat wet french kiss. The kiss lasted for a few minutes and involved a lot of tongue movement until Naruto was given some time to breathe. He looked to see that Hinata's face was flushed and her eyes had a lot of lust in them. Lust for him and him only. He knew he probably had the same look on him.

This time both Naruto and Hinata fainted with cherry red faces and wide eyes. "Ohhhhhhhhhhh."

"Damn now that was a make out," Ino muttered with several nodding in agreement.

"That was hot," Sakura said in embarrassment and something else that only Ino picked up. She looked at her friend with a sly grin. This was getting interesting.

"If that's what he gets for naming an ability for her, I can't wait to see what gets him some steamy lovemaking if that steamy french kiss was anything to go by."

"ANKO!" Tsunade and Kurenai exclaimed

'I really hope we don't see that.' thought several in the audience.

The dragons and fox just laughed at the display. Minato and Kushina were blushing at the display of affection since that should be reserved in the bedroom. Naruto pulled his attention back to his parents.

"Memory Projection!" He shouted as a giant white screen appeared above his head. The screen flashed to life.

"Now then we will go through Naruto's memories. So just sit back and endure. We are in for a bumpy ride." Medrick warned.

Everyone gulped as they focused back at the projections.

---

He projected Konoha after Kurama's attack and was sealed inside Naruto. The scenery was from a horror movie. The fire was everywhere burning buildings and corpses of the dead. Buildings crushed and destroyed and many areas were left barren. Bodies of the dead were scattered everywhere; sometimes only limbs were all that remained of a person. The scene changed to the council room when the reinstated Sandaime took charge after his successor's death and revealed Naruto's condition to the council.

Immediately they screamed for his death on the civilian side while the shinobi wanted him on a leash or in a jail cell to protect everyone. Danzo wanted him as a weapon to be used against their enemies. The Sandaime demanded silence and explained Naruto will live in the orphanage and later be put in a home in the red light district, with no one helping him, including the Hokage. Almost everyone agreed and the meeting ended.

Everyone clenched their fists in anger at seeing the council quickly demand the death of a child that was just born. Neji and Hinata were close to activating their byakugan as the others were leaking chakra.

The scene changed to Naruto having a horrible time in the orphanage. Being given worn-out clothes, and barely any blankets to keep himself warm. The other kids and caretakers abused and bullied the child for the years he remained in the orphanage. When he was four, he was thrown out onto the streets, in a blizzard no less. He would have died from hyperthermia and frostbite if the fox had not used his chakra to keep Naruto warm and protected from the elements. Naruto lived in cardboard boxes for shelter and found his food from the various dumpsters he scavenged around.

After one beating on his birthday, he was given his rundown apartment. It was during his time he met the good people of Ichiraku Ramen that always gave him a bowl of food. It soon became his favorite place to eat and hang out. But that did not deter the numerous attempts at his life. He was beaten and abused in the vilest ways a human could do to a child. Then when he was eight, he was kidnapped by several villagers that toured and raped him for several months. By the time he was 'rescued' by the Hokage and some of his 'trusted' Anbu, the deed was done. The same Anbu that arrived late to save from his beatings.

After his 'rescue', Naruto was an empty husk. He cared nothing for anyone or anything. He was tired of the pain, of all the suffering. So he took a knife in his home and pierced his heart with it.

"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" literally the entire audience screamed in horror. Most of the girls were in tears as they wished they could rush in and comfort the child Naruto and stop him from trying to commit suicide.

'Oh god!' screamed a traumatized Tsunade.

"Damn it. Damn it!" shouted a grief-stricken Jiraiya.

Most of the others were horrified as they NEVER thought they would ever see Naruto of all people try to commit suicide and as a child no less. They morbidly wondered if he was not as stubborn as he was, would he have tried to do the same? While he may not have been violated, the emotional trauma would be more than enough to push anyone over the edge.

He fell to the floor as he was drowning in a pool of his own blood. But the fox saved him from death and he was taken to the hospital to speed up the healing. After release, Naruto would try to end his life for months, but each time he failed miserably. Naruto finally just gave up on trying to end his life, then he came up with the idea of becoming Hokage and gaining everyone's love and appreciation. Since everyone looks up to the Hokage with love, awe, respect, and look up to him for guidance, he decided to do the same.

'It was an act of desperation. A desperate dream of a child that wanted to be loved. My god, Naruto, how much have you been suffering under the surface.' thought a majority of the audience.

"Naruto-kun," Hinata muttered but the blonde stayed silent as he stared up at the projection.

He entered the academy to become a ninja, but he quickly saw that his teachers did everything possible to sabotage his learning. Naruto decided to play pranks to get back at them and to vent out his hate to the village. Plus it was a good lesson in stealth and he managed to outrun the chuunin, jonin, and even Anbu chasing him for HOURS! He literally painted the village's monument in broad daylight in a neon orange jumpsuit and no one caught him until he was done. The day he failed for the third time he was tricked into stealing the scroll of sealings, which was a relic of the village. He mastered a forbidden technique from it in just a few hours. The technique was called the Shadow Clone Jutsu, which creates solid copies of the user.

These copies were self-conscious and able to think for themselves but usually acted identical to the original. The main thing was that anything they learn or experience goes to the original user after they are dispelled in a cloud of smoke. He used it to save the one teacher that cared about him and beat the other teacher that tricked him into stealing the scroll. He was put in a team with his crush Sakura Haruno and his emo rival Sasuke Uchiha. His teacher was a masked cyclops by the name of Kakashi Hatake. He was a lazy bum that always arrived three hours late and gave the worst exercises you could have ever heard. He gave lousy exercises and always focused on Sasuke. Sakura never cared and always fawned over Sasuke. She would always berate and hit Naruto whenever he tried to cheer her up or ask her out.

Then came his first mission outside the village that went from a simple C-rank to an A-rank. It was during this mission he learned what his ninja way will be, and how he will live his life in the shinobi world.

"Kakashi?" a disturbingly calm Tsunade called out.

A shiver went down the spine of the copy-ninja and everyone else in the room. "Y-Yes." he stuttered out.

"Did you actually let a genin team fight a missing-nin from Kiri? And one that has as much infamy as the Demon of the Mist?" she asked.

"In my defense, they wanted to continue the mission and I was the one fighting him. Most of the time."

"Yet you still got caught," she said.

Kakashi gulped. "Well minus that minor hiccup."

"We will talk later after this."

Then came the chance to advance in ninja rank, The Chunin Exams. It was broken into three parts. A written part, which went off with little trouble. The second part was a survival exam in an area called the Forest of Death. That is where things went to shit. First, the three got separated from each other by a powerful wind attack. Then Naruto gets eaten by a giant snake. Then after he gets out he finds his teammates being attacked by the guy that sent that snake. This man was Orochimaru. Naruto used some of Kurama's chakra to fight him, but he was knocked eventually by having his connection cut off by Orochimaru. After the snake marks Sasuke with a curse mark, he leaves them to their own devices. His team barely makes it to the third stage.

A preliminary stage was set to narrow down the numbers. Naruto is able to win as did Sasuke. Sakura ends her fight in a draw. Naruto then makes it his personal mission to beat Neji for nearly killing Hinata in their match. Naruto and the others had one month to train before the third round. Naruto meets Jiraiya for the first time. Jiraiya was one of Orochimaru's teammates and both studied under the Sandaime. He teaches Naruto how to summon toads and use Kurama's chakra consciously. This was when he met Kurama for the first time. After that Naruto relaxes until the fateful day of the exams. Naruto nearly loses to Neji, but Kurama's chakra helped him pull out a win.

GRIP!

"Owwww!" Jiraiya let out a girlish cry as Tsunade had a vicious and tight grip of his crouch.

"You threw him off a ravine?!" Tsunade growled.

"I had everything under control! I was confident he would get the fox to help him!" Jiraiya protested as he tried to defend his actions.

"And if he never went into his mindscape. Hell what if the fox decided not to help him?" Tsunade asked.

Jiraiya blinked a few times. "I never considered that." That was the absolute WORST answer to give, but Jiraiya realized this too late as Tsunade proceeded to beat the crap out of him with Naruto, Hinata, Shizune, Anko, and Kurenai helping.

After Jiraiya was left a bloody heap, Tsunade turned to Medrick who was looking at the spectacle with a sweatdrop.

"Continue," Tsunade ordered as Medrick snapped his fingers for Jiraiya to be conscious, but still in pain for the rest of the viewing. He should be healed by the end of these flashbacks, Medrick mused as the projection began again.

Then during the last round, Orochimaru initiates an invasion he had been planning along with another village, Suna. Naruto ends up fighting Gaara who had Kurama's youngest brother, Shukaku, inside him but driven insane by the faulty seal that caused Gaara to have insomnia. Naruto was able to change Gaara's view on life, but many died in the aftermath of the invasion including the Sandaime.

"Wait you were the one that beat Gaara and Shukaku?!" several of the genins exclaimed.

"Yeah it was a tough battle, but I managed to squeeze out a win with the help of the Chief Toad and the Kyuubi."

'You better be grateful.' Naruto rolled his eyes as he replied he was, which caused the fox to pause as he wondered what was up with his vessel now? Naruto stayed silent as he knew he owed the fox for helping him when he could have chosen not to and let Naruto get himself beaten to a pulp by Gaara and the sand demon, but he didn't. So the least he could do was give a thank you.

Naruto and Jiraiya go to find the Sandaime's last student, Tsunade Senju. She is the greatest healer in all of the Elemental Nations and the strongest female ninja. She was in her 50s like her teammates but looked to be in her 20s because of a special technique.

Naruto finds out she is a drunken mess, because of the loss of her loved ones during the last war and compulsive gambler with horrible luck. He is able to get her out of her drunken mess and convince her to return to the village, but not before there was a battle royale between Tsunade and Jiraiya against Orochimaru and his assistant Kabuto.

Kabuto was in his late teens with silver hair tied in his ponytail. He wore round glasses and purple pants with a matching shirt and fingerless gloves with a white sash tied around his waist. The fight ended with Orochimaru and Kabuto running away. Though while Naruto did barely anything, he did learn his father's signature move, the Rasengan, during this time as a consolation.

After they returned to Konoha and Tsunade became the Godaime Hokage, Naruto went on several missions including saving an actress that turned out to be an actual princess of Spring/Snow Country and helping a powerful lord in the Land of Tea.

However, everything went downhill when Sasuke tried to leave for Orochimaru to get more power so that he could kill his brother. Naruto and a team of his friends were chosen to go after him. In the end, it was a fight between Naruto and Sasuke at the Valley of the End. Naruto managed to take the win thanks to Kurama's chakra.

"Naruto!" the blonde flinched from the sudden shout of Tsunade as everyone looked either in shock at the projection or the blonde himself.

"Did that happen exactly like we just saw?! Did Sasuke Uchiha use the chidori on you, not ONCE, BUT TWICE!" Tsunade demanded.

"C'mon, Tsu-baa-chan. I am standing right here. What does it matter?" Naruto asked as he inadvertently went back to his nickname for Tsunade.

Tsunade did not look amused as she narrowed her eyes at Naruto. "Naruto, I am not asking as your so-called baa-chan, I am asking as your commanding officer, as your Hokage. Now answer the question with the truth, genin," she ordered.

Naruto gulped at the look he was getting. He knew they were not going to continue unless he answered honestly. And if he tried to lie, Medrick may just intervene. So with a heavy heart, he sighed and answered with great reluctance. "Y-Yes."

"Did he also pile drive you into the ground, thus causing your spine and neck to snap and set you on FIRE multiple times?"

"Yeah," Naruto said.

Sakura was completely pale as she stared at the projection with wide unblinking eyes. She had begged Naruto to bring Sasuke back to her. Even though she knew how he felt, she made him promise to bring her crush back to her. Because that is what Naruto would do. Especially if it's for her. And when he failed, Naruto said that even if it took a lifetime, he would bring Sasuke back, even after he tried and nearly succeeded in killing him. 'Oh god, what have I done.' she thought with great shame.

'Damn you, Sasuke!' thought everyone that was on the retrieval mission. They busted their asses for the Uchiha, and many of them nearly died for him, and what does he do? He brushes off all of their sacrifices and nearly kills Naruto multiple times! Hell if it was any of the others then they would be dead right now. Hell Naruto would be dead as well if it weren't for Kurama.

'I should have never taught him that damn technique.' Kakashi cursed with great shame for teaching Sasuke the chidori.

'You will pay for this Uchiha. You as well Orochimaru. But Kakashi you and I will discuss giving a mentally scarred child such a dangerous jutsu like the Chidori.' Tsunade swore.

'Hey, fox.' Naruto called out to his furry companion.

'What do you want brat?' the fox demanded.

'Thanks for saving me.'

Kurama blinked a few times as he was unsure he heard that correctly. 'What?' he asked again. 'I said thanks for saving me. You didn't have to, but you did, twice. So thanks.'

Kurama's eyes narrowed in anger as he shouted. 'Don't thank me! It's weird! I only helped you because I would have died if I did nothing. Plus watching you beat the Uchiha was enjoyable to watch. That's right, just a good pass time.'

'Don't have to be such an asshole.' Naruto grumbled. Despite his angry retort, Kurama was actually stunned to hear a thank you from his vessel. First an apology and now a thank you? He was seriously beginning to wonder just what was happening to him?

Unknown to the duo, Medrick was smiling in their direction. They were making progress, he mused. Good. This would make things easier later down the line.

He dragged Sasuke back hoping for some recognition at long last. NOPE! Not even fucking close! Immediately the council said he had used excessive force to bring back the Uchiha and needed to be put down. They threw him in jail and told him that his execution would be held in a week. No one came to see him or even allowed to see him. Not his friends. Not his teachers. No Iruka. No Jiraiya. No Tsunade. No one. The last time he saw them was when he was dragged into the prison. All of his friends calling him a traitor and a monster. Apparently, the council blew the lid on his secret and now everyone knew he was the Kyuubi jinchuuriki, and hated him for it. His closest people; Iruka, Tsunade, and Jiraiya did nothing for him and watched in silence as he was taken away.

Growls and shouts of anger. "Fifty traitors and hypocrites!" were the most common words spoken by the group. Along with a few colorful words, courtesy of Anko.

"Go to damn hell, you backstabbing bitch!" Tsunade roared to her other-self.

"How could you just stand there and do nothing?! Did Minato's sacrifice mean little to you! TO US!" Jiraiya demanded.

'Never have I wished to blow my own head off!' Kakashi said with clenched fists.

It was in his time of solitude he realized how foolish he had been in trying to change the village. It was during this time that Hinata visited him. She bawled her eyes out as she confessed her love for him. She managed to find a way into the prison and had one night of beautiful love filled with passion (Minato, Kushina, and Hinata blush at this), and Kurama helps Naruto have one thing to remember her by.

Nearly everyone that watched the projection with wide and unblinking eyes and completely red faces. "HOLY SHIT!" Several of them went flying with a bloody red nose.

*THUMP!* *THUMP!*

"SHIT! Hinata and Naruto have fainted!"

"Hey, why did we only see the beginning and end! I demand a rewind to see the whole thing now!" Anko demanded.

"Please no." several begged.

"WAKE THAT BRAT! HE NEEDS TO PAY FOR TAKING HINATA'S PURITY!" Kurenai demanded as she began marching towards the unconscious blonde but….

*SMACK!*

She was stopped by a smack to the head, courtesy of Anko. "ARE YOU HIGH, NAI-CHAN?! Hinata gave herself to Naruto, not to mention it was so the kid could have something to remember her by." Kurenai growled but relented knowing she was letting her protective nature get the better of her. Eventually, they got Naruto and Hinata to wake up but every time they locked eyes, they would blush immediately and turn away.

"Didn't think the Kyuubi would be so helpful in the end," Kakashi said.

"I still can't believe that brat made a deal with the Shinigami of all deities," Jiraiya muttered.

"Not like he had any other choice," Tsunade replied.

Kurama was watching the projection with wide eyes, 'This kit is both the most reckless person I have ever met and the luckiest being probably in all creation. And I really don't know how to feel about that.'

He also gives Naruto his power since he has been the only one worthy of his power. He also reveals Naruto's heritage to him, which was the start of his hatred for his parents and his desire to destroy Konoha.

"That explains a bit," Gai said.

"Real awful timing," Asuma replied.

On the day of his execution, the entire village came out to see it except Hinata and the Ichiraku's. Naruto was killed by being set on fire. But he did not scream, he laughed. A bone-chilling laughed that filled the air and scared the shit out of everyone. He then told them his heritage and why Kurama attacked the village before finally dying and leaving his old world for a new one.

"Damn that was intense." was the general thoughts of everyone.

"And there is much more to come." their host said.

"Great." the group grumbled.

---

The screen finally disappeared as Naruto's eyes returned to normal. He was panting somewhat from the overuse of his eyes since it had been a long since he went that long with a memory projection. He realized that he was seriously out of shape and needed to fix that.

Everyone looked at the projection incredulously, "Everything we have seen him do, and he calls that out of shape." Asuma said.

"If he calls that out of shape, I hate to see what in shape he can do," Anko said.

"Nothing short of insane." Medrick proclaimed.

He looks up to see Hinata worried but waves it off, he turns to his parents and sees that they were broken in a sense.

Everyone flinched. "Damn."

"I know it would hit them hard, but I didn't think it would be this bad," Naruto commented.

'Minato. Kushina.' Kakashi, Jiraiya, and Tsunade thought in worried.

Both were crying their eyes, slamming their fists to the ground cursing everyone, and wishing that the two just let Kurama destroy the village if this was what awaited their son. They cursed the Uchiha that released Kurama and turned him on the village, they curse Sasuke for being the final nail to end Naruto's life, they curse Tsunade, Jiraiya, Kakashi, and the Sandaime for not helping their son enough or looking after him. They cursed the entire village to the pits of hells and most of all; they cursed themselves for damning their son. They had foolishly believed that their son would be loved by everyone and would be seen as a hero by all.

What fucking idiots they had been! Their stupid, naive idealism cost their son not only a childhood but a life in general! The question that continued to plague their minds was WHY? Why did the people they trusted with their lives, did not do the same for their own flesh and blood? Did they just pretend to care about them and showed their true colors to Naruto? Was this really what they gave their lives for? They save their village for their son to be beaten and killed? To be turned into a monster worse than the Kyuubi?

'I'm sorry. We really did fail you. We should have been better. But we were cowards to take up the responsibility. We could have done more, but we didn't. And this caused not only RDK Naruto and our Naruto to suffer unnecessarily. We wasted his potential and have squandered it with our own issue blinding us to it.' Jiraiya thought.

They were cut from their musings when Naruto began to speak. "I have shown you the truth of my upbringing, and now I have something to say. Something that has been long overdue. You two have caused me a great deal of misery in my existence. Whether it was indirectly or involuntarily, the fact remains is you made my childhood a living hell.

But I should thank you since I was given a father in the form of Kurama and Thoron (Minato flinches), and a mother in Thoron's queen, Saphira (Kushina flinches). After everything that's happened to me, I can honestly say without remorse that I hate both of you. I hate you so much that it burns my very being. Even though you now feel remorse for your mistakes, it does not change anything for me. And that's why I can never accept you as my parents. Not now. Maybe not ever.

The aforementioned duo felt their entire worlds shatter. Their own son doesn't see the two as his parents. Hell, he sees two dragons and the Kyuubi of all beings as his parents more than the two of them. They couldn't blame him though. They failed miserably as parents. All they gave him was a burden he was too young to understand or bear, and left with people that turned their backs on him, wanted nothing to do with him, or wanted him dead. They hung their heads low as new waves of tears came to their eyes.

Everyone flinched at Acnologia's words to his own birth parents. "Damn that was cold."

Naruto frowned at his counterpart. "He didn't have to take this far. I get why, but he didn't have to take out on them so harshly."

Jiraiya was visibly shaking. "How could he do that to them? After everything they did for him, he just cuts them off so easily," he said in anger.

"It's our own fault for not being there for him," Tsunade responded.

"Then we deserve the hatred, not them! They didn't do anything to deserve that!" the toad sage snapped.

The slug sannin shook her head. "There's nothing we can do about those two, but maybe we can do something for our Naruto."

"That is if he is willing to listen," Kakashi replied.

"We will just have to try. We have to not let his anger solely focus on Minato or Kushina. They don't deserve it. We will take that hatred and hope he doesn't feel the same as RDK Naruto does to his parents."

'We fucked up so bad.' was their collective thought as they wept once more for the new wound in their hearts. The two felt a pair of arms wrap around them. They looked up to see Hinata's sympathetic gaze. The two buried their heads on her shoulders as they continue to sob and weep.

Hinata held onto the two tightly as she whispered comforting words to them. She paused as she looked towards Naruto. She gave him a sad look, while Naruto retained a blank stare. She knew he was not bothered by her actions, and she knew she could not say anything to change his mind.

Even during their time together, Hinata could not help Naruto to let go of his anger towards his parents. And it seems his time on Earthland had not been kind all of the time to him and all it seemed to do was bury all his hatred down before it came all out today. She knew she had no right to tell Naruto who to consider as his parents, she just hopes that perhaps with time, Naruto will learn to forgive his parents after getting all that anger, rage, and grief out.

"You're other self is really amazing Hinata." Naruto complimented while trying to avoid eye contact.

"Do you really think so?" Hinata asked without looking at him.

"Yeah, she tried to help the other me even though I was so filled with rage. You're even helping my parents, even when you don't have to. Thank you for that."

"Anytime Naruto-kun. I will always be there to help you when you need it."

Shikamaru clasped his hand on Naruto's shoulder. "So will the rest of us." with all the other rookies nodding in agreement.

Naruto looked at all of them with a small grateful smile. "Thanks, everyone. I mean it."

Meanwhile, the other occupants watched the scene with sadness and pity in their eyes. Kurama and Thoron knew it would be a long time before Naruto ever let go of his hatred for them if he ever does. The two just hope it's not at the end of his life again, so he doesn't die with regrets again in his heart. Thoron was next to speak after a period of silence.

"So do the rest of us hope for the same," Tsunade said with the others nodding in agreement.

"Naruto." Naruto turned to his mentor/father. "I believe you and the other two should listen to what Hinata had to say to you about the Elemental Nations after your abrupt end."

Naruto turned to the girl in question along with anyone else in the room as she got up after Minato and Kushina had calmed down enough to listen as well. She sighed before she began recounting her tale.

"Oh, this is going to be good."

"I wonder what dirty secrets we'll learn from this." Anko giggled.

"Hopefully it's dirt we can use against certain individuals in the village," Tsunade said.

Everyone looked at the hokage curiously. "What do you mean?" Asuma asked.

"You'll find out later. So let's put a slight pin on this conversation." Medrick lectured.

"Well after your execution, things got really bad for Konoha. When word got out that the village abused and executed the only son of the Yondaime, a lot of people were not happy. The village was split in two because of it. Those that felt guilty (a bit late for that in Naruto's mind) and those who did not care. The Kazekage, Gaara; the Spring Daimyo, Koyuki; the Waterfall Leader, Shibuki; the Land of Tea Leader, Jirocho; the entirety of Wave cut all ties with Konoha.

They were all disgusted with not only your upbringing but also that you were executed for doing your job. The Fire Daimyo had to march down to the village after nearly drowning in angry letters from all the different countries that dissolved their treaty with us. He really let all of them have it as he ranted on them for their stupidity.

Everyone whistled. "Well damn."

"I was afraid that was going to happen." Tsunade. sighed

"Did I really mine so much to them?" Naruto asked.

"You were the hero that inspired them Naruto. You changed their lives for the better. So hearing about your execution will of course upset them. Though upset would be a very huge understatement." Medrick explained.

"The fact that the daimyo came to the village himself, means things have gone to shit real quick."

"And it will only get crazier from here on," Medrick advised.

"Oh boy….."

The civilian council was disbanded and all of its members were executed and had all of their assets seized. The clan heads had to pay a hefty fine that depleted half of their total income. The shinobi elders were sent to a maximum prison, Danzo tried to fight back thinking this was his opportunity to take over, but Jiraiya and Tsunade killed him after a long battle. His Root Anbu then went on the offensive against the village. It became a bloody massacre, no one knew who was friend or foe.

"ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME?!" Tsunade exploded.

"I knew that bastard wanted the Hokage seat, but I never thought he would go so far," Jiraiya growled.

The rookies looked at the two sannin in confusion as well as noticing their sensei stiffening. "Who is this guy?" Naruto asked.

Tsunade growled as she explained. "That is Danzo. An old teammate of our sensei. Both of them along with the other two elders trained under the Nidaime Hokage, Tobirama. But both had very different views on how to run the village. The man is a militaristic warhawk that wants to eliminate any possible threats he sees to Konoha so that it is the supreme village in the world."

The rookies looked at her incredulously. "Does he realize how such a mentality can cause the village to have too many enemies to count and the number of lives that could be lost if we got into a conflict with them," Shikamaru demanded.

Jiraiya shrugged his shoulders. "He doesn't. If anyone dies he simply sees them as too weak to work in his version of what the village should be."

Afterward, The Fire Daimyo wanted to know why Danzo wasn't watched more carefully if he was such a suspicious character, but all Tsunade could do was give excuses, which pissed him off even more. He basically removed nearly all power from the Hokage and basically made her a figurehead and he was basically calling all the shots now.

The rookies and jonin all flinched. "That's a bit harsh." Shikamaru finally said.

Tsunade shook her head. "Maybe, but I can't blame him for doing that."

"Why don't you try to get rid of him then?" Sakura suggested.

"We can't. For one that crafty bastard knows how to cover his tracks so any of his crimes can't be traced back to him. Not to mention with the support he has in and outside the village, if we try to forcibly detain him, we will be in the same situation our alternative selves were." Jiraiya explained.

The rookies all frowned. "Then there is nothing we can do?" Naruto demanded.

"At the moment no. But if we bide our time and work together. We can get rid of him and make him pay for all the crimes he has committed." Tsunade answered.

All of our former friends were in denial, and many of them blamed you for all the damage that was done to the village. The only ones who looked remorseful were Shikamaru, Choji, Lee, Tenten, and Shino (again, a bit for that, thought Naruto). Sasuke was still in a medically induced coma to keep an eye on him. I decided to fuck him over for what he did to you. I added some ingredients to his medicine he was being injected with that slowly killed his ability to produce sperm.

Normally the drugs he was being given were to keep him down, so no one knew what was happening to him until it was too late. By the time he was awake, his testicles were like a barren desert."

Naruto stared at Hinata in shock. "You mean you-" she nodded with a smirk.

"Yup, I made that puny Uchiha the last one in every sense of that word. Well, the last one besides Itachi and that masked bastard claiming to be Madara. Hell, I even injected him with some special enzymes that permanently relaxed the muscles in his genitals, so he could no longer get an erection. No children and no sex for that bastard ever again. Though I was saving any poor girl or guy stuck with him from a life of disappointment. He really earned the title runt of the Uchiha."

…...

…...

…...

…...

"HOLY SHIT!" literally everyone in the room exclaimed.

"Did I hear right?" a stunned Kurenai asked. "Did she just she….."

Asuma nodded. "Yeah, she not only sterilized the Uchiha and made him incapable of an erection."

"And confirmed he was a runt," Anko said.

All was silent before everyone began to shake as they bite their lips, but they could not hold it in as they all burst out laughing, "HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!"

"OH KAMI!" Kiba gushed out.

"MY SIDES ARE BURNING!" Naruto cackled.

"DAMN Hinata I didn't know you had it in you to be so vindictive!" Anko complimented.

Hinata blushed. "I-I-I-I...um."

Medrick smirked. "Like the old saying goes. Hell hath no fury like a woman's scorn. Especially a widow's scorn."

Hinata's face became tomato red. "W-W-Widow." she stuttered.

"Of course! I mean your other self and the other Naruto were practically married. Maybe not the traditional way, but ninjas aren't much for traditional. I definitely might have to take you off your senseis for a while and see what I can teach you two." Anko proclaimed as she pulled Hinata into a one-armed hug. She gave the girl a saucy smirk. "Especially you Hinata. I bet by the time I am done with you, Naruto will be drooling in your hands, and maybe more."

Hinata had gone nuclear red with Naruto not too far behind, though the shy hyuuga had a waterfall of blood going down her nose. "EEEEEP!"

"ANKO!"

"What? Everyone here knows about the girl's infatuation for the little blonde bundle here. I am just saying I will lend her a hand to getting her man….in more ways to one."

"Anko the last thing we need is you turning Hinata into a mini-you." Kurenai scolded.

"What is wrong with me?!" the snake mistress cried indignantly.

Meanwhile, Naruto was blood red as he imagined an older Hinata but wearing Anko's attire. This caused blood to leak down his nose as he shivered from the tightness he was feeling. Kurama chuckled from within his mind. 'Looks like puberty has finally found its way to you.'

'S-Shut up.' he said weakly.

Medrick clapped to get everyone's attention again. "Alright, let's get back to the viewings."

Naruto could not help but roar in laughter, everyone else joined soon after. Kurama was rolling on the floor and could feel his sides hurt from all the laughing. Even Kushina and Minato could not help but chuckle at the girl's antics.

'Take that Uchiha-teme!' They collectively thought. Hinata coughed out a giggle before she continued.

"I decided to go to Shizune to become her apprentice in the medical arts. She said I should go to Tsunade, but I told her I wanted nothing to do with that woman that could not do anything to save you. Plus she was taking Sakura and Ino as her students, and I wanted nothing to do with those two either.

Ino clutched her chest in mock pain. "Ouch. How cold Hinata."

Sakura nodded. "I get why, but still that is really off to hear Hinata say that."

She finally agreed and began teaching me about poisons, which Anko helped a bit in, and medical ninjutsu. Tsunade...she wasn't the same after your death. I think it just finally broke any fight she had left in her. I think she only took Sakura and Ino in as apprentices so she didn't have to constantly remember she failed you.

Anko cheered. "Yeah I got myself a student." she wrapped Shizune in a semi-tight hug. "What do you say Shizune? Maybe we should take the little hyuuga under our wing and make her into a badass. I am sure we can teach all kinds of things that could be useful to her."

Several of the genins blushed as their minds had several ideas of what Anko would try to teach Hinata. Hinata? Well, she was a few seconds away from fainting again.

Tsunade smacked Anko over the head and told her to cool down. Anko pouted but adhered to the order.

Thanks to my byakugan and near-perfect chakra control I excelled greatly in the medical arts. Then came my training in elemental manipulation. When Shizune tested my affinity, she was surprised I had a double affinity for water and wind. This finally explained why I was no good for juken in its current state. The juken was made for those with an earth affinity. It demanded someone sturdy and strong like a stone. But my nature demanded speed, flexibility, and adaptability. I decided to create my own style of juken that complimented my two affinities to create a whole new way of using the byakugan in combat.

Hinata gasped. "Wait, I am not earth nature?"

"No Hinata and that is nearly a constant that you are not an earth element. Or at least not your primary. I believe you are currently fire and lightning, but your sensei will have to check just to be sure." Medrick explained.

"That would explain so much. No wonder you struggled with the juken." Neji realized.

"What do you mean. Neji?" Naruto asked.

"Naruto the juken has always been a very grounded type of taijutsu. It's as the other Hinata explained. It's about sturdiness and delivering precise, powerful blows to crush our enemies. But if the person has a different affinity it makes the learning a lot more difficult because what that element demands can be completely different from what the earth element needs."

Naruto nodded. "I see."

One day I was called by the Hyuuga elders to the clan dojo. Apparently, they wanted to test Hanabi's skill against me once again. I decided to humor them for a bit, and agreed to it. Hanabi tried to weaken my resolve by talking about how pathetic you were and she could have made a better wife for such a fool. That made me snap and forget about any restraint I was planning to show. I rushed right in and knocked off her feet in seconds and beat her to the ground until she was a bleeding mess.

"She beat Hanabi?!" Neji exclaimed.

Ino flinched. "Wow, she just had to use the worst choice of words to press her buttons."

"Still I never thought I would hear Hinata actively trying to hurt her sister," Kurenai said.

The whole clan was shocked, some of the elders tried to intervene but I knocked them to the ground with some powerful, but deadly strikes to their groins.

"*Pfffffff!*" Everyone began choking, much to the shy Hyuuga's embarrassment.

"Aw man, I am loving this other Hinata!" Anko cheered.

Hiashi was terrified by what I just did. He would have ordered me to stand down, but my glare stopped all that. I told him I was done with this bullshit from him and the rest of this disgusting clan. I told them that the shy Hinata was dead and gone forever. They wanted me to be a cold-blooded Hyuuga, and they were gonna get it.

Neji made a comment about me still being weak like the demon, and I countered by activating the seal on his forehead, the bastard screamed for a few minutes before I got bored and stopped. I told him that next time I won't stop until he was dead on the floor and said the same thing for the rest if they ever insulted you in front of me again.

Everyone gasped in shock while Hinata looked at the projection in horror. "She used the seal on Neji!?" Tenten exclaimed.

Hinata shook her head. "No that can't be true! I hate that seal! I would never use it on any branch members!" she quickly denied.

"Perhaps not you Hinata, but this other you seem to have a lot less restraint, and her hatred for the village what it did to Naruto outweighs your own morals." Kurenai retorts.

"This is seriously sounding like Sasuke again." Kiba groaned.

"The difference being that Hinata isn't betraying her village or slaughtering her clan," Shino replied.

After that, they never got in my way again. The entire house was afraid of me.

"I can't blame them." everyone said.

After a whole year, Shizune wanted me to sign the slug contract, but I told her I had another summoning contract in mind. With that, we traveled to the remains of Uzushiogakure. Like Kurama said I was able to enter thanks to your blood in my system from our marriage and found the contract to the Phoenix Clan.

"Wait there is a phoenix contract?!" Naruto exclaimed in shock.

"It's how the Uzumaki gained their incredible vitality. However, I am afraid to inform you it does not exist in your world." Medrick explained.

Naruto snapped his fingers. "Rats!"

"What are you complaining about, brat? You already have a summoning contract?!" Jiraiya protested.

Naruto blinked a few times before scratching the back of his head. "Oh yeah. Whoops."

We kept it a secret from everyone and I worked on learning the super-strength technique that Tsunade had developed, and learning elemental mastery and senjutsu from my summons. I even took some kenjutsu lessons from a friend that Anko recommended.

Jiraiya gasped as he stared at the projection with wide eyes. "She learned senjutsu?! HOW?!"

Everyone, except Tsunade and Kakashi, looked at the toad sage in confusion. "Wait what's senjutsu?" Naruto asked.

"Naruto, senjutsu is a special ability that one gains from their summons if they deem the summoner worthy and capable of learning it." Medrick began explaining.

"It focuses on one absorbing in Natural Energy, the chakra that resides in nature and mixing it perfectly with your chakra to achieve Sage Mode. If achieved properly you are on a completely different level compared to regular shinobi. Your jutsus become infused with natural energy and are known now as sage arts or senjutsu and far more powerful than normal. There are a few more details but those are the bullet points you need to know for now."

Jiraiya nodded. "That's a basic understanding. Mastering senjutsu will easily make you a kage level shinobi and only another kage level shinobi or someone with abilities to counter/match your senjutsu would be able to defeat you."

Everyone's jaws dropped at how powerful this sage art could be. And Hinata managed to master it in such a short time. Naruto was beginning to think about how he could ask the toads to help him with learning about this.

This went on for another seven or so years. By the time I was in my twenties, I became the most powerful member of my age group. I had mastered my sage mode in three years and I was stronger than both Jiraiya and Tsunade combined. Over the years, Shizune and Tsunade started to drift apart. Shizune tried being there as always, but Tsunade just closed her and everyone else off.

Hell, even with Sakura and Ino, she kept the relationship professional and never tried to get close to the two of them. After they were done training, she only spoke to them when it was assigning them missions or handing out tasks in the hospital. Tsunade had become a shell of her former self. She was just like how she was when you found her, only worse. This time no one could get near unless it involved the village being endangered or something happening at the hospital. Jiraiya and Shizune tried many times, but nothing worked. The Tsunade Senju they knew was gone, and she was not coming back.

"Tsunade."

"I'm fine Jiraiya let's just keep watching."

Then during the last battle in the second invasion by Oto with Iwa and Kumo helping this time, I fought Sasuke after he left for Orochimaru again a few years earlier. He proclaimed the same bullshit from before. Talking about killing off all Konoha and then going after his brother before he would revive his clan. He said he was gonna make sure I was gonna be one of his wives as a way to stick to you in the afterlife.

Everyone glared at the screen in anger, but none more so than Neji, Hinata, Kurenai, Kakashi, Tsunade, Anko, Sakura, and Naruto.

"Neji-nii-san," Hinata muttered as she tried to reign her cousin while also controlling her own rising anger.

"Easy, Nai-chan." Anko gritted out.

Sakura and Naruto looked at the screen in distress and anger. 'Did I/Naruto mean so little to him?!'

'See what your mercy has done? The fool has allowed his greed for power and thirst for revenge has consumed him. He does not honor you or regards you in any kind of nostalgia. He sees you as a pebble. A piece of trash that was in his way, so he kicked you into the winds. That's what Konoha does. They just take and take. Aren't you sick of it?' Kurama voiced his vessel. Naruto stayed silent as he stared at the screen.

I beat the little bastard to the ground without too much trouble, since he underestimated me far too much. His curse mark form proved to be troublesome but I handled it easily with my sage mode and elemental juken. I ended up beating the little bastard to the ground before I smashed his face into a million pieces with my enhanced strength. Jiraiya, Tsunade, Kakashi, and Gai fought Orochimaru, the Sandaime Tsuchikage, and the Yondaime Raikage.

"GO HINATA!" Anko cheered.

"HINATA! HINATA! HINATA!"

Hinata blushed at all the praise she was getting. "T-T-T-Thank you, e-e-e-everyone."

I fought against their jinchuuriki later on in the invasion. I was being pushed to my limits even with my sage mode, but then I unlocked this purple chakra. The chakra of Hamura Otsutsuki. It merged with my sage mode and transformed my eyes. They evolved into the Tenseigan. It gave me the edge I desperately needed.

Everyone looked surprised at the change to the Byakugan. "Tenseigan?" everyone repeated.

"I didn't know the byakugan had an evolution," Neji said with Hinata nodding. Neither had ever heard anything about this.

Medrick nodded. "It does have one, it's just you need to go through several steps to obtain it. For now, I will say that senjutsu is one of the steps to obtaining those eyes."

Kurama looked up at the screen in shock. He remembered Hamura briefly. He was the brother of his father, though his father only spoke minorly about his family as he was on death's door when he split he and his siblings into the form they were now known as. And this Hyuuga managed to access his power due to her connection to her vessel and him.

'Hmm.' the fox hummed wondered if a similar result could be achieved with the version he is familiar with. 'A theory to test for another time.' the fox decided as he took a bite out of his meal to focus again on the projection.

I used my new power to fight off their bijuu forms and I managed to free the tailed beasts and send them back to the summoning realm, but before they left, I took a sample of their chakras for the final part of the plan we had concocted. Releasing the bijuu from their vessels, which ended up killing the four jinchuuriki, had pissed off the kages of the enemy alliance. Without their bijuu, they were forced to retreat, but they were not done yet. They hired the Akatsuki to help destroy the leaf and get back at me. Itachi especially wanted my head for killing Sasuke. The leaf knew it would not win easily and managed to convince Suna, Taka, Spring, and Kiri to help in the war. The Daimyo even sent an army of his elite samurai.

"I am glad they are getting at least some help for the invasion," Ino said.

"I'm guessing they would be willing to help us with it meant getting rid of the Akatsuki and Orochimaru, considering the threat they possessed. Iwa and Kumo are more of a bonus as many villages have had issues with those two villages in particular." Shikamaru explained.

Then the third invasion occurred about six months later, which gave me some time to master my new powers. The battle between the two forces was bloody and destructive. I fought Itachi, Pein, and Konan at the same time.

Jiraiya gasped as he stared at two faces from his past that he never thought he would see again."Yahiko? Konan?"

Everyone turned to the toad sage in confusion. "Jiraiya how do you know those two?" Tsunade asked.

"Remember during the Second Shinobi War when we met those three orphans that Orochimaru thought we should kill."

Tsunade thought back to that as the memories came in. "Are they…." she began as Jiraiya nodded in response.

"Yeah, they are the same kids I watched over for a few months and trained. But Yahiko did not have the rinnegan, it was Nagato. How did he get them and why does he refer to himself as Pein."

"Damn those are some stacked odds against the girl." Anko cursed as many nodded in agreement.

"What's that dojutsu that Pein guy has?" Naruto asked.

"The Rinnegan." the toad sage replied.

Kakashi looked at Jiraiya in shock before his face turned grim as he looked at the screen. "So it actually exists. I always thought it was a myth."

"It's very real."

"Just what exactly is it?" Kiba asked.

"It's one of the three great dojutsu like the sharingan and byakugan. However, these eyes are unique. These eyes are said to be the one that belongs to the first god of shinobi, The Rikudo Sennin. Whoever has those eyes is literally god in human form. Not even the five kage together could beat someone who wields those eyes." Jiraiya explained.

All of the genin and the jonin, that did not know much, looked at Jiraiya with wide eyes. Could such dojutsu be so powerful and actually exist. It seemed impossible, but Jiraiya confirmed they are very real, and to actually hear what they can do, it was actually a little frightening. They dread to think about what abilities one could wield with those eyes.

'Grrrrr.' Kurama growled from his cage.

Naruto frowned at his tenant's action. Why was the fox so agitated? 'What's got you so riled?'

'You humans have no idea of the true power of the rinnegan and the rikudo sennin. There is still so little that you humans understand but the world around you.'

Naruto was unsure what the fox meant, but decided to focus his attention on the projection again.

I managed to kill Konan and Itachi, but I was nearly drained from the battle. Pein saw this and would have killed me if Shizune had not jumped in and taken the blow for me. When I saw my master die in front of me I snapped.

My chakra levels spiked to ungodly levels. I began absorbing chakra from all around me and I absorbed the chakra of all the bijuu I had collected over the years. I achieved what Kurama and you had wanted.

My hair transformed completely white with a pair of horns growing from the sides of my head, but most importantly, I grew a third eye on my forehead. The Rinne-Sharingan. Kurama was right, I was the reincarnation of Kaguya Otsutsuki, or to be more precise I was the atavism of Kaguya Otsutsuki.

"PFFFFFFFFFT!*" Within the seal, Kurama comically performed one of the biggest spit-takes anyone could have probably seen, but thankfully for his own dignity, no one saw it. Though that did not stop him from screaming,

"WWWWWWWWWWWWWHHHHHHHAAAAAAATTTTTTT?!"

Naruto flinched from the loud shouting coming from his tenant. "There's no way. How could the power of that ever appear again in this world?!"

'Why are you screaming?! Just who is this Kaguya woman?'

'You know very little of the monsters that used to walk around this earth ningen. That woman is one of them. She was power incarnate with just one flick of her wrist she could create and destroy on a whim. She is the mother of all chakra. The Demon Rabbit Goddess. That is Kaguya Otsutsuki.'

"Rinne-sharingan." everyone uttered as they stared at the new dojutsu in front of them. They could see that it's a combination of the sharingan and rinnegan, meaning it would have the abilities of both. However, after hearing Jiraiya's proclamation on the prowess of the rinnegan and knowing how powerful the sharingan can be, they couldn't imagine how powerful a fusion of the two could be.

"It's one of the original doujutsu that the sharingan and rinnegan derive from. Kaguya Otsutsuki was the only one in the Elemental Nation to possess these eyes. With these eyes should cast a genjutsu that could cover the entire planet and everyone on it to fall under her illusion and even be able to travel to different dimensions without issue." Medrick explained though that was not scratching the surface of what Rinne-sharingan could do.

Everyone just stood completely slack-jawed at the deities' explanation. However, by the tone he was giving, they knew he was not lying. If those eyes could be something like that, just what type of monster was this Kaguya woman? And now Hinata had this same power. It was a lot to take in. Kurama scoffed as he knew the god was still some details about the rinne-sharingan, but perhaps that was better. The humans were not ready to hear the full truth about what the eyes were capable of, let alone the origins of Kaguya Otsutsuki.

I had the power of the literal mother of all chakra. Pein stood no chance against me, and I defeated him after a long fight. I destroyed his eyes so one could ever use them again.

Everyone nodded in agreement. "That was actually a good plan." Tsunade complemented.

"Best to get rid of eyes like that to avoid someone else from using them," Jiraiya advised.

'Good, that hyuuga girl did well. While I shudder that she has the powers of Kaguya Otsutsuki, she did her world a favor in destroying those eyes. No one since the sage has been worthy of having those eyes. Not even his sons weren't worthy enough for his eyes.'

Naruto was just confused by his tenant's words. 'Just what are you talking about?'

'Things that you are not worthy of hearing or understanding.'

'Asshole.' Naruto grumbled.

I appeared over the enemy leaders and both sides were shocked at my new appearance. The enemy kages would not stand down and told Madara to make his move. Madara appeared in the same clothes as he did when he tried to take Kurama. That same vile orange mask pissed me off to no end. He used the Edo-Tensei to revive the previous jinchuuriki along with an army of shinobi from legends. Some of these guys included the Seven Swordsmen of the Mist, bloodline wielders, my mother, Shizune, and the Uchiha clan.

Everyone glared at the image of the masked Uchiha. "Filthy bastard." everyone grunted.

"Damn that's a lot of people he just resurrected." Anko couldn't help but be impressed.

"The amount of chakra to do so," Tsunade muttered with Jiraiya nodding.

Naruto glared fiercely at the projection of the mask Uchiha. "So that's him."

'Yes. He is the one who ripped me out of your mother and put me under your genjutsu to attack your village before your damn father freed me before sealing half of me into you.' Kurama growled as he too was angry at seeing that bastard again. He hoped the alternative Lavender eyes put an end to that miserable human for good.

He tried to resurrect you but was confused when it did not work along with everyone else. That was when I knew you were alive somewhere and that gave me hope that you were happy somewhere away from all this.

Everyone sighed in relief. "Thank goodness for that."

"I was honestly worried about what was going to happen," Neji said.

"Guess the other me, Hinata, and the Shinigami had the last laugh," Naruto replied.

"Still can't get over how your other self made a deal with the death god," Ino said.

Naruto shrugged. "Hey he kept his end of the deal, so did his job right."

I used my new powers to wipe out his zombie army and barreled right after him. I managed to rip one of his arms and his sharingan eye. I managed to damage his mask to reveal Madara or Tobi as he called himself was actually Obito Uchiha, one of your father's students (Minato and Kushina gasped in horror).

….

…

….

While the genin were unsure of who the man was, they noticed that every one of the jonin's and sannin's eyes were as wide as dinner plates. "WWWWWWWHHHHHHHHAAAAAAAATTTTTTTT?!"

"That can't be…... He can't be alive. I saw him die. This can't be real." Kakashi uttered in complete denial

"What the hell is going on?! Tell us what this is about?!" Tsunade demanded.

Medrick scratched his head as he was expecting this type of reaction. Especially from Kakashi. "I will tell you that Obito is indeed alive. Both in the RDK world and the one you lot are originally from."

Kakashi finally exploded. "HOW?! How is he even alive?! Why did he never show up?! Why did he betray everything that Minato-sensei and he stood for?!"

Everyone, minus Medrick, flinched as they have never seen Kakashi react like this. Though his colleagues, the sannin, and Medrick understand why he was so affected by the news. Guy laid a hand on the masked ninja's shoulder so that he would calm down, if only a bit.

Medrick began. "You see when Obito was buried under all the rubble someone managed to get him out. This individual used the opportunity to train and mold Obito into everything he was not before. No longer was he the happy-go-lucky boy that dreamed of being hokage; now he was a dark and twisted man that had no desire to live in the reality we all live in. Instead, he wished to create a reality where everyone could be happy. A perfect world."

"What do you mean by that and who turned him into that? And how does this involve the bijuu?" Asuma asked.

"Hmmm." Medrick hummed as he scratched his chin. "Well I was going to keep secretive for a bit longer but since this story has brought this bombshell out, I might as well get this one out of well as they are connected. The person who saved Obito was none other than Madara Uchiha."

"WHAT?!" everyone, including Kurama, shouted in shock.

"How he died after his fight with the Shodai Hokage?!" Anko demanded.

Medrick shook his head to them. "That is where you are all misinformed."

Tsunade narrowed her eyes. "What does that mean?"

"I mean that Madara faked his death using his sharingan. He then went into hiding for all these years, waiting and biding his time to find someone to do his bidding and he found one in Obito." Medrick explained.

"Obito wouldn't be turned so easily. He was too strong for that." Kakashi retorted.

"On any other occasion you may have been right, but seeing a certain incident caused Obito to fall right into Madara's hands."

"What incident?" everyone asked.

Medrick sighed before he looked straight at Kakashi. "Obito saw you murder Rin, Kakashi."

Kakashi's eye widened as he went completely pale. "What?" he whispered aloud.

"You see he heard about your mission and how Minato was not with you two and went to save you two, but by the time he got there; all he saw was you stabbing through Rin's chest with your chidori."

"WHAAAAAAAAT?!" all of the rookies exclaimed in shock. The other jonin looked grim as they knew why Kakashi killed Rin.

"Kakashi-sensei that's not true right." Sakura denied.

"There's no way Kakashi would do that!" Naruto said.

Kakashi gulped. "H-He saw that?" all of the rookies snapped their heads to look at the jonin in shock.

Medrick nodded. "Yes, and before you, all say anything he knows that Rin chose to die."

"WHAT?! Why would she do that?!" Naruto shouted.

"It's because she was kidnapped by Kiri and made into the jinchuuriki of the three tails."

"She was made into a jinchuuriki?! So she decided to die than be a jinchuuriki?!" Naruto exclaimed.

Medrick shook his head. "It wasn't exactly that. You see the seal used on her was rather unstable, similar to Gaara. However, in this case, it was intentional to make it weak so that the seal was broken and Rin was rescued and brought back into the village so that the three tails could run rampant within the village."

"Kakashi-sensei is this true?" Sakura asked.

Kakashi took a deep sigh. "Yes, unfortunately." Everyone stayed silent as they could not imagine the guilt that Kakashi feels for killing his comrade even if said comrade wanted to die to save thousands of lives within the village.

After a period of silence, Kakashi spoke up again. "What happened after Obito saw….that?"

"He awoke his mangekyo sharingan and went completely berserk and slaughtered all the Kiri shinobi as he had an epiphany that he was living in hell. Afterward, Madara explained that he could have the life he wanted. A life where Rin is alive and everything he wants is his. A perfect world. From then on, Obito was committed to achieving this perfect world." Medrick explained.

"And this perfect world requires the bijuu being collected?" Jiraiya inquired.

Medrick nodded. "Yes. The bijuu are meant to be sealed into a certain statue so they return to their…..original form." he ended cryptically. They'll learn soon enough.

'Those fools! They do not understand what they will unleash to the world.' Kurama roared at the top of his lungs. Why did these have a damn obsession in meddling with things that they have no power over!

Before Naruto could ask what his tenant meant, Medrick spoke again. "Let's leave this conversation for a later time."

He tried to use the Gedo Mazo with the little chakra he had of the tailed beasts. He only had the one, three, and seven tails. Everyone else was back home in their respective realm. Kurama was dead for good because of the seal of the Shinigami, and the death god made sure he would stay in the afterlife. The worthless statue did not work properly, since Obito did not have the proper eyes to control it, and that allowed me to destroy it. I created the biggest Gudōdama I could produce and fired it at the statue. It was obliterated instantly along with Obito and Zetsu, and freeing the remaining bijuu before I sent them home as well.

"Gudodama, what exactly is that? It was extremely powerful."

"You can think of it as the strongest physical application of chakra in its purest form."

"Purest form?" everyone asked in unison.

"It's something that can only be achieved with yin-yang release, which allows someone to use chakra in its original form. It presides over all forms of chakra you may all be familiar with and what all nature elements derive from. They are extensions of yin-yang release. With this power, you are a true god. You can create life, planets filled with life, your own dimensions with their own planets and cosmos, and even destroy entire worlds with it."

"Wow." everyone said in awe of the fearsome power that RDK Hinata wielded at the tip of her hands.

Orochimaru was finally killed in the final battle against his teammates, but so were Jiraiya and Tsunade.

"So in the end we killed each other," Jiraiya said in a somber tone.

"Maybe it was for the best. We screwed up that world, maybe the next generation can change it." Tsunade suggested.

The Raikage was barely alive with one arm and leg. The Tsuchikage was bisected courtesy of Kakashi and Gai entering the battlefield. Kisame was dead from a fight with the rookies. They all died fighting him with Lee using all eight gates to decide the fight. The other members of the Akatsuki had died earlier on in the years by one of them.

Sasori died to Sakura and Chiyo, Deidara died in a fight with Kakashi trying to blow himself up with him and failed. Hidan and Kakuzu died in a fight against Teams 7 and 10 in the aftermath of Asuma's death.

Choji gave a deep sad sigh. "So we all died. That's a bit depressing."

"Yes, but we can hopefully avoid this with everything we're learning. Let's use this as a lesson of what we should and should not do." Shikamaru advised not only to his friend but everyone else as well. Everyone nodded. "Right."

"So I died before the war, huh." Asuma sighed. Kurenai grabbed hold of his hand. "That won't happen this time," Kurenai replied firmly.

In the end, the three enemy villages were split between the other three, and they decided I should be Hokage. I accepted it since I promised to make your dream a reality and change the village the way it was supposed to be. I even changed my name to Hinata Uzumaki, because you were the only man that would ever touch me in my life.

"Well damn. There goes the five great nations. The Duo Great Nations doesn't have the same ring to it."Anko snarked before giving Hinata a very sly grin. "Aw, aren't you sweet, Hinata. I wonder if I can find such devotion. Maybe you'd be willing to share."

Naruto and Hinata blushed. "ANKO!"

I changed the Hokage Monument to have you on it as well. I explained that you had inspired me to become who I became and that you were the true hero of the war. It was also to show people what hard work and dedication can lead someone to. That is about it. I reign as Hokage for about fifty years before stepping down for someone else. After that, I traveled the world helping whoever I could before passing away peacefully when I turned 125."

"Wow, you lived really long, Hinata!" Naruto exclaimed in amazement.

"Is it because I became Kaguya's atavism?" Hinata asked in a curious tone. Medrick nodded. "Yes, that is part of the reason."

Naruto looked at Hinata in awe. 'She made my dream come true, even though I wasn't there. All because she…..loved me.' Once more that warm feeling was feeling his stomach and chest. This was the first time that he found someone that would openly say they loved him, though it was an alternative version of Hinata, the Hinata also feels the same if the comments from the fox and his friends were anything to go by.

"Thank you, Hinata."

"Anything, Naruto-Kun."

Naruto, Kushina, Minato, Kurama, and the others just stared in awe. Hinata had truly come a long way from who she used to be. Naruto could not have been more proud of his queen. She proved everyone wrong and she rose to heights even he did not think were possible. He ran up to her giving a passionate kiss before grabbing her by the waist and spinning her around.

"You are amazing my queen. You passed even my wild expectations. You truly are magnificent just like I said you would be." Hinata just laughed and gave him a kiss that he returned with equal passion.

"Now that is some steamy action I get behind!" Anko proclaimed.

"EEEEEP!" a blushing Hinata said as she covered her mouth.

"How much longer are we gonna be seeing this?" a twitching Sakura groaned.

"What's the matter, forehead? Getting jealous?"

"Shut it, Ino-pig!" the pinkette snapped.

The dragons let the couple enjoy their moment before speaking again."Naruto as you can see, your mate grew to become a very powerful warrior. You were her symbol of strength and what helped her motivate herself to grow stronger than anyone else in her world could ever imagine."

Naruto frowned before setting Hinata down before looking at Thoron. "The person that motivated her was Naruto Uzumaki. I have not been that person in a VERY LONG time. I am Acnologia. I am no longer the person she-OUCH!" Naruto was cut off from his rant when Hinata smacked him over the head.

"HAHAHAHAHA!" Everyone, minus Hinata, began laughing hysterically.

"Shut the hell up it wasn't that funny!" Naruto snapped.

'No, it was hilarious!' Kurama teased.

"Sorry, Naruto-kun." Hinata apologized.

"Don't worry Hinata, my other self was kinda asking for it."

"That's all we need to keep Naruto in line. Just have Hinata smack around when he gets too rowdy or emo."

"Screw you, Ino!"

"What the hell Hinata?!" Hinata just looked annoyed. "I hit you because you were spilling some bullshit again. You tell me you are Acnologia? SO WHAT?! I told you no matter what happens I would follow you into the depths of hell! If you become the bringer of evil itself I would stand by your side till the end of time. Do you hear me? I love you. Whether you are Acnologia or Naruto Uzumaki doesn't matter. I will always love you no matter till the end of time."

Ino clutched her heart. "I can't handle such sweet moments like this. My heart is going to burst!"

Hinata and Naruto were really wishing that the earth could just eat them.

'If she can't handle this. I wonder how she'll handle Acnologia's interactions with Wendy and the others. Those should be fun.' Medrick thought in amusement.

Naruto just looked in awe at the girl in front of him. How can she still say all that? She doesn't even know everything he has done, yet he can tell none of it would change her opinion of him. She would always love him. All he could do just look at her in amazement before giving her a hug and whispering 'thank you' again and again. Hinata just smiled and returned the hug.

"Awwwwwwwwwwww." Naruto glared at everyone else, though his blush ruined the glare. Hinata could not even do that as she buried her face into her hands.

Thoron just smiled before continuing,

"See my son. Even your queen sees the good in you. You may say that you have no good in you, but you are wrong. And your actions in the last few years have proven this."

Naruto looked at him questionably.

"Let's begin with the first thing you did. Remember when you found Mavis Vermillion. She was orphaned on her island and you could have left her on that island, but you didn't. You helped raise her for the years you two were together until she walked off to her own adventures. It was thanks to you that Mavis became the great mage she was and brought about the creation of Fairy Tail. Then there was the battle with that human, Gildarts Clive. You could have left him there to die, but you went out of your way to heal him and take him to the nearby town. Your actions with the dragon slayers is another showing of your compassion. Finally, do I have to explain your actions on Tenrou Island?"

Everyone blinked "Huh, well you look at that." Asuma said.

"For someone who's done a lot of terrible things, he's done some good," Gai said.

"I think I can see why he left Gildarts alive. He saw him as a challenge. Perhaps he hoped to keep alive to have a rival again." Lee said.

"That's a bit of a stretch since Gildarts is nowhere near strong enough to challenge that Naruto. He also did not need to land on Tenrou. He could have easily destroyed it without much trouble." Tenten replied.

"I wonder who this Mavis person is though?" Kiba asked.

"You think that girl we saw in Tenrou when Naruto blasted the island are connected?" Ino asked.

Everyone hummed in thought. "Hmm. Maybe."

"So he helped the dragon slayers as well? Maybe there's still some of the old Naruto in there." a hopeful Jiraiya said.

Naruto just stared at Thoron in deep thought. Had he really been that merciful and caring without him realizing it? He saved Mavis because he sensed the potential within her. He saw the greatness that was begging to come out. It was the same thing he saw within Hinata. But there was something else in her, something that he had not seen in a long time. He thought back to the fight with Gildarts. He let Gildarts live because no one had challenged him in such a long time. He awakened a spark within him, even if it was only an instant. He let him live because he wanted to see if the human could become stronger from this encounter.

"So he felt a connection to Mavis? Interesting." Tsunade said.

"And he saved Gildarts because he saw a potential rival," Neji said.

"Hope Gildarts is ready for the future fights he'll be dragged into," Kiba muttered.

Tenrou? He did not even need to remember. Those humans entertained him. Plain and simple. He saw the potential in those humans and tested them for that reason. Plus, his daughter was part of the guild, so he had to show some restraint.

"Ohhhhhhhhhh!" nearly everyone exclaimed.

"So we were right. You two do have a kid!" Ino cheered.

"And one that's a member of Fairy Tail. I wonder who that could be?" Anko teased.

'I think I know who that is.' thought Shikamaru, Neji, Shino, Jiraiya, and Tsunade

She was one of the dragon slayers he checked on from time to time. He felt an obligation to do this since he had a debt to repay to the dragons. The one he watched the most was his daughter for obvious reasons. She was his flesh and blood, and unfortunately was the youngest of the children to become a dragon slayer. She was only five when Grandeeney 'left' like the other dragons did.

…

….

….

"EHHHHHHHH?!" several shouted in shock.

"WENDY IS MINE AND HINATA'S, DAUGHTER?!" Naruto exclaimed with Hinata looking close to fainting with her face looking like a red beacon that could light up a lighthouse.

"THAT'S WHY SHE LOOKED SO UNAFFECTED BY YOUR APPEARANCE ON TENROU! IT'S BECAUSE SHE RECOGNIZED YOU!" Shizune realized.

'Is that why I felt so protective of her.' Naruto and Hinata thought at the same time. The two looked at one another, but blushed and quickly turned away.

"Oh, this is getting interesting." Anko giggled.

He even made small talk with her as she grew up in Cait Shelter. Part of him wondered why she became so attached to him after just a few visits. Did she know about him? Who he really was? It would explain why when he arrived on Tenrou she was not scared like the rest.

She was confused, but also happy? She was happy that the first thing he does when they meet again is to attack her and the rest of her guild, and not give any explanation?

"The fact that even he finds her actions weird should say something," Shikamaru said.

"She is Naruto's daughter. So we expect some weird shit from her." Ino commented.

"OI!"

His daughter was really weird. Just like her mother he supposed.

"SERIOUSLY EVEN YOU OTHER ME?!"

Hinata then looked at Thoron with curiosity in her eyes. "Thoron-otou-sama. Can you show me an image of my daughter? I would like to see how she has grown up." Thoron just smiled before turning to the Chronicler that projected an image of her daughter. Hinata immediately squealed at how adorable her daughter looked.

"Well, that was a cute reaction." Anko gushed.

"I guess that's what happens when you become a mother, eh Hinata." Ino teased.

"E-Everyone." Hinata stuttered.

"Don't get ideas Naruto," Kurenai warned as she saw the odd look the boy was giving her student.

Naruto flinched. "I wasn't thinking anything."

Tsunade facepalmed. "Great now I have to keep an eye on those two," she muttered.

Even Kushina had hearts in her eyes. Hinata looked back to her beloved with stars in her eyes.

"What's her name, Naruto-kun?" She asked.

"Wendy. Wendy Marvell."

"Wendy. Like the wind. A fitting name. She's beautiful Naruto."

"She is our daughter, of course, she would be beautiful."

"Awwwwww." several gushed.

"Look at them, having a moment as happy parents," Shizune said.

"So Romantic." Ino sighed happily. Hinata and Naruto were just begging this ended soon.

"Naruto." Naruto turned to the Chronicler.

"The time has come to explain why we have called you here."

"This ought to be good," Anko said.

Naruto looked at the dragons seriously. The Chronicler spoke this time. "You know I am the son of the Dragon-god of time, Dialga, correct?" Naruto nodded.

"So dragons have gods as well?" Naruto asked. "I wonder how many other dragon gods exist?"

"I wonder if other pantheons of gods exist in this world," Shikamaru said aloud.

"Considering what we have seen in this world so far, it would not be the craziest thing we would see," Jiraiya said.

"Are we going to see these dragon-gods?" Kiba asked.

"Yes, but it will be a while before you will see one," Medrick replied.

"Well as you know I can look into the future from time to time. Although they are just glimpses into them. Visions really, but they are very probable of happening. In my vision, I see our world fourteen years in the future. In this future, the entire continent is a wasteland and humans run in fear every day and are nearly extinct. The reason? Dragons have run over the world and rule over it with an iron fist."

Everyone breathed in sharply. "Well, that's a way to drop a bomb." Anko finally uttered.

"So they want him to stop this event from happening?" Naruto wondered.

Jiraiya shook his head. "I doubt it's as simple as that. There must be more for them to bring that Naruto to speak with along with the others."

"Not to mention there's no guarantee that those events will happen as it was explained," Shikamaru said.

"Why do you say that?" Choji asked.

"Remember what the Chronicler says. He sees visions that are probable of happening. Meaning they can or can not happen. And I guess that he's lived for a LONG time so he's seen millions of visions of different events that may occur. This means to me that there exists an infinite number of different possible futures that we can be led to, but our choices would very likely affect what future we get to." the Nara explained.

The rookies looked at the chuunin as if he grew several heads, while the older shinobi looked rather impressed, Asuma looked especially proud. "Aren't you reading into this a bit much?"

"He's not wrong," Medrick told his audience.

"REALLY?!"

Shikamaru scoffed. "Was there any doubt?"

"Just as there is an infinite number of different worlds in the Naruto-verse, there also exists an infinite number of possible futures for each of those alternative universes. Every decision you make will change the future you head towards. It is never set and constantly changes with the decision that you make in your lives." the god explained.

"Wow." was all anyone could say. To know every decision and choice they make affects the future in some shape or form was insane. It made them wonder about the different timelines that they could have unintentionally created with the choices they have made.

Naruto looked in shock. None of the dragons he knew would ever do that. Sure there was Kyurem, but even that sadistic, ice freak had a code of honor. Who would dare do this?

"To answer your question. None of these dragons are our allies. These were man-eating dragons of the dark army from 400 years ago."

"So this involves time travel," Anko said.

"I am not even surprised at this point," Tsunade replied

"Does time travel even exist in our world?" Shikamaru asked.

"I do believe Minato was researching it, but he never told me if he ever made a breakthrough," Jiraiya explained.

'I need to see those notes.' Naruto swore.

Naruto was shocked. "But how?! I thought most of those beasts were killed at the climax of the war?! How are they still alive?!"

"Because they came through a portal in time."

Naruto froze at that. "What?" he whispered.

"Seven years from now an eclipse gate is opened. Someone will try to open a portal to 400 years in the past to kill Zeref before he became an immortal and by extension stop you. But it backfired. The portal was opened, but instead of going in, something came out. Ten thousand dragons came out of the portal and invaded all of Fiore and then the rest of the continent."

"Well, that backfired spectacularly." Asuma cynically said.

Naruto was just standing in shock at what he just heard. But he could not deny that what he said made sense. During the war, several dragons from both sides disappeared in the conflict through a portal in the sky. He always wondered what happened to those dragons. He also growled that someone was trying to use one of Zeref's magic against him. Nothing good can come out of time travel or messing with time in general. It always ends badly for someone.

"I think we can all agree we should try to change events that have passed. Nothing good comes from trying to mess with the past." Tsunade advised everyone.

"Hai." was the unanimous response.

Naruto looked at the two dragons. "So you want me to go stop this invasion, and destroy this gate seven years from now?" Thoron shook his head.

"We want more than that Naruto. It's time you get rid of this guilt and shame you have been carrying around for these past four centuries. Zeref will soon begin his destruction of the world and you are the only one that can stop him. Let's not forget about the remnants of the dark army and the other malevolent beings that still linger around the world. This is an opportunity for you. You said you still feel responsible for your crimes against the dragons, then help the humans. They will need your guidance. The dragon slayers need your guidance. You are the only one that can help them."

"So they want him to take this chance to change. To get out of his pit of depression, rage, and self-pity and actually do something." Shizune said.

"They want him to be like he used." Kurenai continued.

"But can he?" Tsunade asked herself.

Naruto shook his head, "They would never agree to me helping them. The humans would sooner die or try to kill me before accepting my help."

"Then you make them believe in you." He turned to Hinata, and she just smiled at him.

"Here comes the compassionate wife's speech." Ino cheered.

"This ought to be good." everyone said.

"Naruto-kun you have always done the impossible. You have inspired those around you to go beyond what they are capable of. You did it for me, Wave, Gaara, Suna, Taka, Shibuki, and many other places. Please don't let this chance slip away from you. If not for you, do it for our daughter. She deserves to live a life full of happiness with her loved ones. Please, Naruto-kun do it for our beautiful baby girl. Please...We need you to be able to hope again."

"Please, please, please listen to her." everyone was muttering.

"C'mon other you can do it." Naruto cheered for his other-self.

"Please let there be some part of the kid that could inspire others to be more than they could be. A boy that could bring hope to others and work to be better. Let some spark of that boy still exist in Acnologia." Tsunade quietly said to herself.

Naruto looked down in thought. Could he do it? Could he really let go of all his guilt and start living again? He imagined Wendy's happy face with all her nakama, falling in love with a boy, walking her down the alley, and watching her have children of her own. He remembered what Kurama said of never letting the hatred consume him. To always press forward and never give up. Then he remembered something else. Some very important words from the past.

[Insert Song: Naruto Ost-Decision]

"I said it and I never go back on my word. That's my nindo! My ninja way!"

"A person is truly strong when they have something precious to protect."

"Never forget who you are Naruto. I am proud to call you my vessel, kit. You are the only I call worthy enough to have earned my respect and trust. That's why I am proud to call you successor and my son. Good luck in the next life, kit."

"I am proud to call you my son Naruto. You are the first to learn magic from a dragon. You are the first of your kind. The first dragon slayer. The dragon slayer to the Dragon King himself. Now go and make me proud."

"Don't grieve Naruto. I don't blame you for what you did. Remember I will always love you."

"I will fight to the bitter end with you, Naruto. Because I love you. I love you just as much as Anna does. You two complete me."

"Oh, it seems that gaki really did get harem in that world." Jiraiya perversely proclaimed.

"Shut it, ero-sennin!"

"You have great potential within you. I can feel it. You are meant for great things, and I will help your journey by setting you on the right path. I promise to be there for you, Mavis."

"I promise to save you Naruto-nii. This is the age of magic. The age of miracles coming to life. So please don't give up on humanity yet. I know Fairy Tail will save you from the darkness. I swear it! It's the promise of a lifetime!"

"Awww, how cute. I can't wait to see their interactions as siblings." Ino gushed.

"Promise, huh?" Naruto muttered.

"Don't be a stranger out there. Everyone needs someone to talk about their troubles. Even a stubborn brute like yourself. So if you ever need a drink and someone to talk to, my doors will always be open."

"That sounds very similar to Ur," Kurenai said.

"I wonder what's the history between those two?" Asuma asked.

"I wonder if Acnologia knows about Ultear?" Kakashi wondered.

"Make sure to visit on occasion. I would like to see you a few times before I finally kick the bucket."

"Please look after my daughter. The burden she has is a great one and I fear she won't be ready for is to come with that burden. Please help my darling, Lucy."

"Wait so he has a connection to Lucy as well?" Naruto asked.

"I wonder how many people this Naruto is connected to?" Shikamaru asked.

"I promise to always look after you. I will make sure you live a full life and be able to have the life I was denied. I promise to always protect you, Wendy. I will always love you, my darling daughter."

"Awwwwww, that's so sweet." several of the girls said.

"Naruto actually makes a good dad."

Naruto pouted from everyone's words. Hinata tapped his shoulder. She looked at her crush with a blush. "It's okay, Naruto-kun. You are a great dad."

Naruto smiled with a blush. "Thanks, Hinata."

---

That's right, he mused. Naruto Uzumaki always kept his promises. He had broken so many before, but it was time to change that. He will not break a promise to Hinata, not to his first queen, especially when it was about their daughter.

Naruto looked at Hinata before smiling and kissing her. He turned to the dragons.

"I accept your terms. For too long I have been in a state of self-pity of guilt and shame, but it's time to change. I will not allow those savage dragons to destroy the world. I will help those weak humans. I will destroy Zeref and all of his followers. I also will not let those savages shit on the legacy that you and the other dragons have left for me to live up to. I AM NARUTO D. MARVELL. I AM THE FIRST OF THE DRAGON SLAYERS! I AM ACNOLOGIA! I AM THE DRAGON KING!"

"YES!" everyone cheered.

"Naruto is back!" Kiba exclaimed.

"Thank, kami." Naruto, Hinata, Tsunade, Jiraiya, and Kakashi said.

Everyone smiled with pride at Naruto's choice. Hinata gave a peck on the cheek. Naruto asked what he needed to do first. "Well, first of all, we will return you to Mount Zonia. From there you have seven years to retrain yourself," explained Thoron. Naruto looked at him blankly.

"I guess training has not been on his mind in a long time." Guy commented.

"Considering what he can do, I can see why he wouldn't train," Asuma replied.

"Yeah being able to blow a country in a single attack would do that," Anko said.

Thoron rolled his eyes at his son. "Don't give me that look, Naruto. You have not trained in over 400 years. You are rusty and need to get back in shape. Plus this gives you time to master all of your powers. And I do mean ALL of them, do you understand?"

Naruto growled knowing exactly what he meant. But he needed to have all his powers in check to fight Zeref and maybe that power will give him the edge he'll need against him.

"Hm, so he has a power that he can't control?" Shizune said.

"Is it the fox?" Ino asked.

"No, I don't think so. They would have said so if it was." Tsunade replied. "I suggest we wait and see what happens."

Naruto sighed before nodding. The Chronicler smiled sadly. "Unfortunately it is time to say goodbye Naruto."

Naruto looked broken but knew this would come to an end eventually. Just like all good things. He began to see everyone begin to fade. Kurama looked at Naruto. "Naruto you have made me a proud fox. I would not expect anything else from my chosen vessel and son. Remember to never lose yourself and keep moving forward. Don't ever give up. Do me proud kit." And with that Kurama, the Kyuubi no Yoko, disappeared.

Naruto and Kurama how to feel at the close relation their alternative selves were. Though Naruto would admit that maybe getting along with the fox would be beneficial for both of them. That is something he will have to think about for a bit.

Naruto turned to Minato and Kushina. The three just look at each other in silence.

"Oh boy." they all said.

"Here we go," Jiraiya said.

"Look-" Naruto began to speak but was cut off when the two hugged him, which left him dumbfounded.

"You don't have to say anything," Minato said.

"Even if you hate us, we don't mind. We deserve it for failing you. But know this one truth Naruto." Kushina said.

"We will always love you no matter what." The two said in unison before vanishing. He was left completely speechless and frustrated on what to say or feel. He turned to the last person, Hinata. He tried to speak but he choked up any response, which made Hinata smile.

She reached into her pouch and took out some items. A worn-out blue headband with a leaf symbol engraved on a slab of metal on the cloth. A large black scroll with a red swirl. A necklace with a green jewel. The last item was a picture of her in her Hokage robes. He looked at her questioningly. She smiled softly.

"Hey, that's the necklace I won from baa-chan." Naruto proclaimed.

"I guess it makes sense that you would give it to Hinata so that she would keep it safe. She was your wife." Ino replied.

Naruto scratched the back of his head. "Thanks, Hinata," he said sheepishly.

"O-O-O-O-Of course." Hinata stuttered.

"The scroll contains some surprises for you and Wendy. The necklace was yours, to begin with, so I am returning it to its rightful owner. The picture is for you to have on hand, plus I am sure Wendy will like a picture of me. There is an album in the scroll along with my gift for you. My headband is for you to have something to remember me. You wore my blood against Neji, so I hope you would wear my headband the same way."

Naruto smiled.

"Naruto promise me you won't give in to despair again. Promise you will help those that need it. Please look after Wendy. Please be a loving parent to her. Every girl needs her daddy to be there for her. I can tell you found love again and that you have other children Naruto-kun, and I'm glad you found happiness again with someone. I know you lost them, but you shouldn't let that stop you from loving someone. So promise me you won't stay alone. Promise me you will attempt to find love again. You need it Naruto. I want you to be happy so please do your best."

Ino sniffed comically. "This is so beautiful."

"A little mushy, but still cute," Anko said.

"It does look and feel nice." Naruto and Hinata muttered in unison. The two turned to one another before blushing and looking back up to the projection.

"Hinata I promise to do my best." Hinata and Naruto share one final kiss.

"I love you Naruto-kun. And never forget I will always watch over you."

"I love you too, Hinata. My lavender queen. My goddess of the moon. I will love you for all eternity." Hinata continued to smile until she faded away. Naruto let a few tears fall as he let it sink in that they were gone.

'Gone, but not forgotten. They will always be with me.' He thought. He turned to the dragons.

[End of theme]

"Thank you, Chronicler." The aqua dragon smiled.

"I will see you soon. Good luck young Dragon King." He too soon faded.

"Naruto remember that no matter what, I will always be with you along with the other dragon kings guiding you. Just look inside yourself. Never forget who you are. You are my son and the one true king. Farewell and make me proud!" Thoron glowed a bright green light that expanded throughout the void.

"I promise father." Everything went black for Naruto after that.

"I wonder what happens next?" Choji asked.

When Naruto opened his eyes again he was on Mount Zonia again as the sun is setting over the horizon. He sees in his hands the gifts Hinata left him with.

He puts on the necklace and seals away the scroll and photo within a pocket dimension he wields. He looks at the headband and smiles.

"I promise I won't ever forget."

"Is he gonna wear the headband?" Kiba wondered.

"I don't think so. He may keep the cloth because it belongs to Hinata, but he won't wear Konoha's symbol again." Neji said.

He rips off the metal slab and sends it into his pocket dimension as he ties the blue cloth around his right arm as he looks towards the crimson orange horizon. The eyes that were filled with rage, emptiness, grief, and sorrow; now had a fire ignited within them. A fire he did not think was there anymore. Acnologia was Naruto D. Marvell once again.

And this time nothing was going to stop him.

Everyone sighed. "It's good to see him be like the Naruto we know," Ino said.

"I am not entirely sure," Shikamaru replied. "What do you mean?" Ino asked her teammate.

"I mean he may have some of the fire of our Naruto, but we know that Acnologia will never go back to who he was in Konoha."

"I want to see what happens next!" Lee said in excitement. "Yes please!" everyone else said.

"Alright. I heard you. The next one will show us the return of the Fairy Tail members on Tenrou." Medrick explained.

"YEAH!" they all cheered.

Medrick laughed "Then let's start the next one!"

---

And there you have it. We have finally passed the prologue of RDK and officially begin again after the seven-year time skip. I apologized again that this took a while but chapters like this take a lot longer than expected so I hope the wait was worth it. The next update won't be for a while.

Now I hope you guys enjoyed the portrayals. Now Naruto is aware of Hinata's feelings, both are growing closer, Sakura is getting jealous, and a change is happening between Naruto and Kurama. Now, these threads and many more that I did not mention will develop throughout the story of glimpse. They will not be dropped or ignored, they will be slowly developed throughout. I am unsure of how far this will go, but I am going to make this last into the far future, whatever that ends up being. The characters will change and have very different or only slightly similar mindsets to the ones in canon/anime. This will be especially true for Naruto, Kurama, Hinata, Sakura, Kakashi, Tsunade, and Jiraiya. This will be ones that will see A LOT of change throughout since Naruto is the central figure and these people are the ones most affected due to how close they to him.

Now I am gonna be preoccupied for a while, but I promise that the next update will feature all of the stories getting updated. I just need to write out a few details, outlines, arcs, etc. before we get to writing. I will make sure that some of them are at least ready before the year-end. So please just be patient.

Unto the next bit of news. I have something special that would be published to celebrate Halloween due to how lackluster it was this year. But I still want to do something to celebrate it. Be on the lookout for that.

Next bit of news. While working on this and the update for RDK, I have brainstormed a lot of other story ideas. So I am wondering which one sounds more interesting for you guys as a concept for a story you would like to see. I would like to say that all these ideas will eventually be published, I just want to know which ones you would like to see first. Here are the ideas:

Legendary Uzumaki: Naruto/DBGT/DBSuper/Maybe Heroes with a minor crossover with Bleach. This will take place near the start of GT, but will also delve into the arcs in dragon ball super. This begins during the Chuunin Exams.

Dragon-fox god: Naruto/DBZ/Super. This story begins from the Last Naruto the Movie and goes from DBZ to Super. Also, minor things from Blue Dragon and D&D will be here. You will understand when you see it. I may use heroes here and not in the DBGT story.

Shaman King of the Leaf: Naruto/Shaman King. This will take place at the end of the Tsunade Arc and go through Shippuden. I will say this will technically take place after the end of Shaman King but there will be a twist. Also minor Bleach elements and other ideas/concepts from other series.

Golden Sun of the Mutants: Naruto/MCU/Xmen. I have always wanted to do an MCU story that includes the Xmen as I really wished they could have connected the universe. Not I will say Only First Class, X1 and X2 will stay intact. Last Stand will be very different. Xmen Origins that ending and the movie overall. No to Days of Future Past, Apocalypse, Dark Phoenix, and Logan (I loved this movie). Like I said things will be very different just with the MCU.

Kaiju Prince: Naruto/Fire Breather/MHA. I just remembered about the Firebreather after watching a bit of the movie and the comics and remembered how cool it was. So I decided to make a story involving my hero academia where they could mix well.

Mystical Kaiju Adventures: Naruto/Godzilla. I was thinking about making this as a story with Dragonball but I am willing to hear other options.

Naruto/Akame ga Kill: Simple premise with some details from DxD and maybe Testament of a New Devil Sister.

Naruto/Final Fantasy 7: Inspired by VFSNAKE'S UZUMAKI SOLDIER and The-Silent-Muse's Till Eternity's End. I always wanted to do my own version but follow closer what Muse wanted to accomplish or at least my interpretation of what he wanted to do.

Naruto/Legend of Zelda: I don't have a lot of ideas, but this will begin after part I.

Naruto/Hitman Reborn: Minato will be part of the Vongola Family and Naruto will learn to rebuild the Mafia family while slowly expanding its influence throughout all of the elemental nations. Start from the beginning of the series, maybe even before then.

Hakaishin Heir: Naruto/Dragon Ball Super. Yeah, another one. Naruto's world resides in Universe 8, Naruto will be taken as the apprentice of Liquiir. He will train him to eventually replace him. Multiple crossovers in the new Universe 8 with Naruto, Rwby, Fairy Tail, and many more.

Yoko Fox Heir: This is a Naruto/YuYu Hakusho story. This will either begin at the start of the series or be a reincarnation story. There will crossovers with several other series regardless of which one I decide on. Naruto will still have Kurama as his partner, whether it's two or one is up to you guys.

Dragon Container: This was a challenge taken by NaruHina and written by Ferduran. The dragons of Fairy Tail (Igneel, Grandeeney, Metalicana, Weisslogia, Skiadrum) after passing go into the Narutoverse and merge into one dragon and sealed into Naruto. the fox will be sealed in Naruto's sibling in this. My twist is that I will include a few more dragons into the mix. These are Acnolgia, Irene, Aldoron, Atlas Flame, and Animus. They will all combine into a new dragon. Naruto will have the abilities of the original dragons.

A POLL will be up as soon as I update today.

Be on the lookout. Please LIKE, FAVORITE, AND REVIEW! I WILL SEE YOU IN THE NEXT UPDATE!
