Chapter 7 - The old man


Marine headquarters, Marineford

Naruto had arrived at Marineford the day after in the afternoon. He had found the place after Nami had shown him a map that included the red line. Since Marineford was located next to the red line, all he had to do was run on the water next to the mountain it until he found the Island that Marineford was located on. The place reminded him a lot of the port town in Earthland (Fairy Tail world) which was a place he frequently passed through when he tried to run away from Tayuya.

There was one huge building that stood out from the others. Since this was the Navy's Headquarters, Naruto figured that must be the building where Garp and that Admiral guy was. When he arrived at the entrance of the large building, he knew he had come to the right place due to a huge sign that read "Marine Headquarters".

He saw a tall guy resting his back to the wall outside the building while smoking. Naruto stared at him for a while since he was kinda shocked by how ugly the man was. He looked like an overgrown monkey wearing glasses.

Naruto shook his head as he was about to head inside when the overgrown monkey made a sound "Hmm?" he exclaimed in a very, very slow manner.

Naruto turned to stare at him with a tic mark on his forehead "What?"

The man smiled as his nostrils flared unnaturally making him look like more of a monkey "Caaan I heelp yo.. u?" he spoke slowly.

"No" Naruto responded quickly before heading inside "I'm just here to visit old man Garp"

Naruto walked fast as he wanted to get away from the weird guy, he was then very surprised when he felt a hand on his shoulder, holding him back.

"Garp-san? Whaat a coincidence... I'm abouut to have a meeeting with him and Sengoku-san.." The man spoke with closed eyes while smiling. Naruto was not smiling however, he had not noticed him moving earlier. There was something about this guy that unnerved him.

Naruto was saved from the weird monkey looking guy when Garp and Sengoku came marching over towards them.

"Kizaru, you bastard. We are starting in a minute" Sengoku growled at the man next to Naruto.

"Brat?" Garp asked at the same time, recognizing Naruto "How the hell did you get here so fast?"

"Brat?" Sengoku as he turned to Garp "Do you know him?"

Garp nodded "He is the new marine I told you about, Ramen-san".

"It's Naruto" Naruto said as he took a look around the room. It had the look of a small conference room that could be found in the Hokage building back home. He saw two more men sitting down to Sengoku's left. Both of them were tall and incredibly ugly just like the monkey that had entered the room with him. There was an old woman who Garp addressed as "Tsuru-chan" sitting down to Sengoku's right as well.

"Get that brat out of here so we can start the meeting" One of the two ugly men that were sitting down said. His name was Akainu, he were constantly frowning as he gazed at Naruto. The other man seemed to be half asleep, yawning every other second.

Not liking the brat comment, Naruto charged up a rasengan in his right hand while at the same time covering his hand in Haki. These were powerful players within the marine and Ace had told him that most of the powerful people from his world where devil fruit users or haki users. The onlookers raised an eyebrow when they saw Naruto's haki while Akainu stood up, clenching his hand into a fist, ready to fight back.

Naruto stared at Akainu with a crazy look on his face "I'm gonna crush you like a bug"

"You aren't afraid of dying are you, brat!?" Akainu yelled as his fist began being covered in fiery magma.

Naruto laughed loudly as he decided to upgrade his rasengan a little bit by adding wind chakra to it. He was now holding a fully charged up Rasenshuriken in his right hand. He still laughed as he stood there with the powerful technique that even had the worlds most powerful marines stare at it in awe.

Naruto didn't hear it but the door opened behind him and a man stepped inside.

"Lower your hand, boy" Naruto heard the man's voice tell him from behind him. Naruto released the technique due to who it was that ordered him. He recognized this voice well, it was the voice of the ever present Sarutobi Hiruzen.

Naruto turned around to greet the old man which was when Akainu saw his chance to kill the young marine that had showed such disrespect towards a superior officer. He threw himself at Naruto with his magma covered fist.

"Stop that, Sakazuki!" Sengoku yelled in a commanding tone. Akainu didn't care, he wanted to melt Naruto's whole body and kill him right here with his magma. When Akainu thought that his magma would connect with Naruto's back, a large orange-red looking demon fox took shape behind Naruto. Kurama hit Akainu with all of his might, sending Akainu and all of the higher ranking officers behind him through the wall and out of the building. Only Garp, Naruto, Hiruzen and the two men waiting outside that had yet to make their present known, were unschated.

"Old man?" Naruto asked as if nothing had just happened.

Hiruzen gaped at Naruto with an open mouth. This Hiruzen were originally from Naruto's home world. He died at the hands of Orochimaru at chuunin exams. He never got to know the new Naruto who you could say have changed a little since then. He also had no memories of the war where he was resurrected by Orochimaru using the Edo Tensei technique. It came as quite the shock to see the nine tailed fox take form behind Naruto, or at least he thought it was Naruto. Garp who stood safely to Hiruzen's right, was sweating and panicking for a second. After all he was the one that had brought Naruto intot he marines. He only panicked for a second though as he soon burst out into laughter.

Before Hiruzen could utter a word, Sengoku, the admirals and Tsuru were back inside the room, standing this time since Kurama had destroyed the chairs they had been sitting on earlier.

"You weren't kidding when you said he was powerful, Garp" Sengoku said, he and the others didn't have a single scratch on them. Akainu even smiled at Naruto, respecting his strength. Kizaru just made weird sounds while Aokiji looked slightly annoyed "Arara.. I was enjoying my nap.. you know"

"Now that Vice Admiral Hiruzen is here and.."

"Yo!" a man said sticking his head inside. Naruto threw his head back pointing at him "YOU!?"

"Hey there brat" Gildarts said, stepping inside. He was soon followed by a very short man. "Long time no see, you damn youngster"

It was Makarov, Fairy Tail's guild master this time.

"Good, now that Vice Admiral Gildarts and Makarov are here we can begin this meeting" Sengoku said then continued "I would offer you all seat.."

"I'm a motherfucking genius!" Naruto said, doing a hand sign "Wood Style..."
