Hello Everyone!

Sorry for the late update as I was really busy with my work but now I'm back and Chapter 3 is almost done.

Thanks for all the reviews too.

Chapter 2: Training and Return

Tiamat, the Chaos Karma Dragon, looked at the strange boy with hidden curiosity in her eyes. It had been six months since he showed up here and subdued her with those weird chains of his. Those chains were strong, she had to admit that. She was not going easy on him after all.

"You stupid lizard!" Her eye twitched as he called her that.

She never revealed her human form to him so it was quite understandable but she would prefer if he call her Dragon-sama or something that fits somone of her stature.

"What is it, worm? And it's Tiamat-sama to you." She said a bit arrogantly, causing Naruto to roll his eyes.

"First stop calling me worm." He folded his arms over his chest.

"Grrrr... don't test my patience. No state your buisness and begone." She sneered, moving her head close to him.

"I need your help." She raised an invisible brow.

"With what exactly?" She was interested to say the least.

This mortal had done nothing but train his body, try to control those big chains or just meditate with those annoying clones, that he seemed to produce in hundreds.

"I want you to have a spar with me once in a week. I want to see how much I have improve since coming here." He replied, staring into her eyes.

The dragon looked at him intently but he did not back down, an admirable trait that she begrudgingly liked in the blond haired boy. She would have devoured him or just send him somewhere else, if she had not seen his fearlessness and dedication to work hard for his powers. Besides she did like conversing with someone who can talk to her without any fear in him, even if most of it revolves around insulting each other. Most beings would shit their pants by being in her mere presence alone.

"What is in it for me?" She questioned. She was greedy and feels no shame in it.

"I cannot give you anything that you may like." He said scratching the back of his head.

"How about your soul?" She relished the look of horror he was giving her.

"W-what?" He stammered. "No thanks! you stupid lizard. There is no way I'm going to give you my soul." He shouted, pointing a finger at her.

Tiamat sighed. "Well it's worth a shot." She mumbled making his eye twitch. "I accept your offer but in return you owe me a favor that I can cash at anytime."

He scratched his chin thinking about it before giving her his famous grin. "Alright. I will return your favour as long as it's not something out of my power. That's a promise, dattabeyo!"

"It's a deal then." She stood up and look down towards him, ignoring his verbal tick. "Go on, summon that weird bubbly aura around you." She had seen him using that power the first time they met.

"No, I'm not going to use that power. I will fight you in my base mode." He said and goes into a stance. Kurama had explained that the stronger his base form is, the more stronger his other transformations will become.

"Are you implying that I'm WEAK?!" A light blue aura appeared around her as she tried to smash him with her tail.

"You should have explained yourself first, Naruto-kun." Matatabi giggled, enjoying the show.

'It is not going to listen now.' He replied as he shot condensed wind bullets from his mouth.

"You need to further train your affinity for wind. It's not even going to pierce it's hard scales." Kurama commented, and as he had estimated, his attack was useless against the blue dragon.

'Should I use sage mode? I don't think i can match her in my base mode.' Naruto asked as he summoned a group of clones to buy him some time.

"Absolutely not. Let a clone gather nature energy for you but you will only use it as a last resort." Kurama replied firmly. "Think of it as training." He added.

'Alright.' He once again summoned many clones.

Some manifest chakra chains from their back while others had rasengans in their hands.

"Uzumaki charge!" Naruto shouted as he jumped towards Tiamat with a rasengan in hand.

Later

"How are you fully healed?" Tiamat asked as she looked at him.

"Admit that it was a draw and maybe I'll decide to tell you." He replied cheekily, making her huff.

"You broke your own rule and used that weird thing that made your eyes look like those annoying frogs." She pointed out.

"For your information, they looked like toads, not frogs."

"Hmmph... what's the difference?" She scoffed but he chose to ignore her and closed his eyes.

"What was that anyway? It not only increased your durability and physical aspects but give your techniques a huge boost as well." She asked with hidden interest.

Sensing no negative emotions from her, he spoke. "It's called 'Sage Mode'. I gather natural energy around here, balance it with my own energies inside my body and made them more powerful." Her eyes widened for a split second before returning back to normal.

'So this boy is a sage at such a young age, truly impressive.' She thought.

"Anyway Tiamat, what do you think about my abilities so far? I mean where I should focus more." He opened his eyes to look at her.

"Your strength and speed are impressive but you need to work on your elemental magic, the only thing in your arsenal that can actually harm me is that spiralling sphere of energy." She replied.

'Well I have more but they will come at a later date and if truly necessary' He thought in his mind.

"Forget about it." He said loudly gaining her attention. "Why you live all alone here, away from rest of the world hun?"

"I... just don't like the world outside." She admitted. "There were times when my presence was needed by my underlings but those days are long gone now." She muttered sadly.

She felt someone touch her arm and looked down to see Naruto patting her arm comfortingly. "You should come with me. I plan to travel and see all this world has to offer." He smiled. "That way you won't be bored and we can still have so much fun together."

"I will think about it." She mumbled before smacking him away, earning a surprised yell from him. "Besides I enjoy having fun with hosts of that idiot Ddraig every now and then." A dark aura appeared around her as she said that.

"Who is this Ddraig and what do you mean by that?" He asked pulling himself out of a small crater.

"Grrrr... that ungrateful bastard is the one who borrowed my treasure and never return it." She replied as the dark aura around her increased.

"So this Ddraig is sealed now..." he asked getting a nod from her. "But why are you targeting his hosts? They are not the ones who took your treasure."

"Because it's fun." He sweat dropped at her reply. Whoever this Ddraig person is, his hosts have his sympathies.

1.5 Years Later

"So you are leaving?"

"Yes. Thank you for helping me with my training but now I think its time for me to leave this place and continue my journey." Naruto replied, smiling at her.

Tiamat gave the boy a look over and had to say he has grown quite a lot in the past year. His body has gained more muscle mass but still retained its leaner built, his blond hair now reached his shoulders with some bangs falling just over his right eye. The most noticeable change was his height, the shinobi now stood at the impressive height of 6.2 feet.

"You owe me a debt, remember that." She said before holding her hand in front of him. "This is for you." She opened her hand to reveal a fine black kimono with crimson magatama markings around the collar and cuffs. On the back of it was a larger, crimson rinnegan marking with a pattern of nine magatamas arranged in three rows of three beneath it.

Naruto looked at the kimono with awe. It looked very expensive and made of some very fine material.

"You are going to just stare at it for the whole day?" The annoying voice of Tiamat brought him out of his trance. "I designed this after your transformation you once showed me."

"Thank you, Tiamat." He took the kimono from her hand as she let out a huff.

"Now begone brat." She replied and turned to take another nap.

"Wait!" She looked over her shoulder and saw him reaching into the pouch attached to his back. "Here take this." She scoffed when he took out a strange kunai and held it towards her.

"I don't need your measly weapons to protect me, worm." She sent a jab at him.

Naruto rolled his eyes, but she could see the sides of his mouth twitched upwards. "This kunai is special. It acts as a beacon for me so if you ever need my help or just wants someone to talk to, throw this at the ground and I will be there in a flash." He explained.

She accepted it and stored it in her own dimension. "Why give me something like this? I told you I'm not your friend and yet you are giving me this?" She questioned, making him scratch his head in confusion.

"What are you talking about?..." He asked. "I don't understand..." He looked at her for an answer.

"I thought you won't want to come back here now that your training is complete." She answered. "No one came back after they get what they want in the past after all." He gave her a small smile.

"I told you that I consider you a friend now, even if you refuse to acknowledge me as one, and I never leave my friends alone." He said making her look at him for some time as if thinking about something.

"You really want to be my friend?" She asked, getting a nod from him. "Alright then, I think you have earned the right to see this."

Before he could ask what she meant by that, her whole body was engulfed in a bright light. He raised his hands to cover his eyes. Once the light vanished, he lowered his arms and could not help his jaw from dropping to the ground.

In front of him, where once stood a giant dragon, now stood a very beautiful pale blue-haired woman in place of it. She had straight long beautiful hair, deep blue eyes and a figure to match Venelana. All in all, she was very beautiful and was clad in a beautiful blue kimono that was a little loose near her chest, displaying just the right amount of her huge twins.

"I told you Naruto-kun, you are a pervert." Matatabi said. She never let a chance to tease him go to waste.

'I am not.' He said with a blush, that did not help his claim at all.

"If not, then why are you staring at her breasts?" Kokuo added, making blood rush to his face. He quickly cut off the link between them to save himself from further embarrassment.

"Oh Naruto-kun, are you okay?" Tiamat smiled seeing his red face.

"Y-you are a woman and you n-never told me that." He sputtered, pointing a finger at her accusingly.

"Hahaha I don't recall telling you that I'm a man, did I?" She said with a smirk.

He takes a few deep breaths to cool down his mind. "Alright, but why hide it till now?" He asked.

"Only those who I consider friends have the privilege to see my human form, outside of my kin." She spoke. "Still, most of the older devils and supernatural beings have seen this form as I was quite active in the past." He nodded his head in understanding.

"Now I think you should leave." He heard her speak and felt her lips connected to his cheek for a split second.

Blood once again rushed to his face as she just smiled teasingly at him. "What happens? Does Naruto-kun want another one?"

"Stop teasing me, woman!" He shouted before vanishing in a swirl of leaves.

'Ohh he looks so cute when blushing.' She thought. 'I should have revealed this form earlier and see him squirm...' she let out a chuckle.

A Week Later

"Please let us go!"

Thwack!

"Shut up you stupid bitch!" A man said as he grabbed her by her throat. "You, as well as all these women are nothing but slaves now." He finished.

"You all will be serving Bolg-sama in his bed pretty soon." Another one stepped forward as a lecherous smile appeared on his face. "But some of you will be serving us first." He stared at all of the women before grabbing one from her hair and took her behind a tree as she continues to scream.

"Please don't..." The woman muttered as tears rolled down her cheeks.

The man smirked. "Shhh don't worry. You will soon start to enjoy this." He pulled his pants down and reached for her shirt.

WOOSH!

His body fell to the ground, lifeless with a kunai embedded deep into his skull.

"Tch. A bastard like you have no right to live." Naruto muttered appearing near the dead body. The girl was going to scream but he quickly covered her mouth.

"Don't worry, I'm here to help." He let go when she nodded her head slightly.

"Hey what's the matter, Kaizo?" A voice asked.

Naruto used hendge to transform into the dead man and walked out from behind the tree. "The bitch fainted. I'm going to grab another one." He said.

The other man scowled. "Just hurry up. I too want to taste one of them."

"Now now there is no need to be so angry about this. You can go first if you want." Naruto said as he walked up to him.

"Really? Thanks ma- grrlll." His looked at him (Kaizo) with wide eyes, holding his own throat trying to stop the bleeding.

Naruto was just too quick for him to see. He took out a kunai and slit his throat in a blink of an eye.

"You bastard!" The other men charged at him with rage.

Thud!

Thud!

Thud!

All of them fell to the ground, dead, with a kunai to the back of their heads. Naruto let the shadow clones surrounding the group dispell and drop his transformation.

"You all are free now." He announced loudly.

A smile appeared on his face as he saw the look of relief and happiness on their faces. Even back in the elemental nations, he hated bandits and rapists above all. In his eyes, they were the worst of the worst.

"Who is this 'Bolg'?" He questioned.

One of them stepped up. "He is the first son of Lord Paimon. These forests and many of the towns around here fell under his control." She replied.

"Can you tell me where he lives?" He asked coldly.

Outside Bolg's Castle

"You really going after him?" Kurama asked.

'Yes, people like him disgusts me.' Naruto replied as he watched the patrolling guards closely from the shadows.

After making a couple of shadow clones to escort all the captured woman back to their homes safely, he proceeded to the Paimon Castle to free this land from the plague known as Bolg for once and for all. He waited until the two guards turned to continue their patrolling before sneaking inside the castle.

Using hendge to transform into one of the guards he strolls down the huge hallways of the castle.

"Now how to find that dog..." He muttered, turning around the corner only to bump into someone.

He looked down to find a blond haired girl around his age clad in a rather revealing outfit.

"I'm sorry. I was not looking where I was going." He offered her a hand which she accepted as he helped her to her feet.

"N-no problem." The girl stuttered with a down look.

"Naruto she is not a devil. I'm sensing some other energy inside her." Kurama told him.

'Yeah, I know.' He replied and looked at her face as she strolled past him.

Xox

"I'm here as you have asked, Lord Bolg." The girl said with a bow after closing the door.

"Ah, so it's your turn today." A black haired man in his early twenties stood up from his chair, discarding his shirt as he slowly advanced towards the girl. "Don't worry, I will not be too hard with you, even if your dirty blood demands otherwise."

"I don't think so." The tall man stopped and narrowed his eyes as Naruto emerged from the girl's shadow.

"Who are you? Guards!" The man yelled and waited for the guards but no one came.

"Yell all you want." Naruto said twirling the kunai in his hands. "No one is going to hear you anyway." He had already sealed the room.

"Then I shall teach you a lesson myself." He stepped forward only to find himself bound by golden chains that burst out of the floor behind him.

The girl noticed the chains coming out of Naruto's back and disappear into the ground.

"Now for your punishment..." The kunai in his hand began to spark with electricity, as he channelled pure lightning chakra through it. "A quick death is not an option after everything you have done." His voice was cold as he brought the man closer to him.

Thuck!

"AHHHH!" Bolg screamed in pain as he stabbed him in the thigh.

"Shut up! Have you ever even think about all the pain you made the families of all those women you defile go through?" He pulled the kunai out and stabbed him in the shoulder this time as the devil gave a chilling scream once again. "I'm sure they begged you to spare them, pleaded you not to sell them as slaves to other rich men but did that stopped you?" He gave a hard kick to his nuts.

"I'm going to make you pay and avenge all those women and families you ruined for your evil desires." His right hand was now covered in blue flames as he grabbed his face harshly before smashing it on his knee. "I will make you wish for a quick death but you won't be getting it from me, Paimon." And with that, his true torture begins.

The next day guards will find half of his body in ashes with his whole right arm separated from his body, lying in the cornor and his face totally unrecognizable.

2 Weeks Later

"Your race is not very hospitable to the outsiders, is it Theresa?" Naruto muttered seeing how hostile some of the Fallen Angels were towards him.

"Yes, but you are an unknown man. It is only usual for them to react like that." The blond haired girl replied, moving closer to her saviour.

She was terrified of him after witnessing her fellow blond torture the Paimon heir to death but that fear vanished in the two weeks she travelled with him. He took it upon himself to escort her back to her home in Grigori after she revealed herself to be a Fallen Angel. She was caught by the devils in the human world after she left her home over an argument with her parents.

"True." He replied in a low voice.

It was not late when the duo reached her house. He noticed the house was not too big but it was not small either. He sensed her hesitation, she was captured for more than three months ago and left without even telling her parents.

She felt a hand on her shoulder and turned to see Naruto givinh her a supportive smile before he pushed her forward.

"Don't worry. I'm sure they will forgive you." He spoke getting a small nod from her.

Knock!

Knock!

"Coming" The door opened as a middle-aged woman with green hair came out of it.

"Mother I'm so-" Theresa was unable to complete her sentence as the woman had engulfed her in a tight hug, crying into her shoulder.

"Theresa where were you? Please don't leave us again..." The girl wrapped her own arms around her with tears in her eyes.

Naruto smiled at the duo before vanishing in a swirl of leaves. His presence was not needed there anymore. The blond always had a soft spot for children and families. Having his parents taken from him after only a couple of hours he was born, he never got to know how a parent's love feel like for the first 17 years of his life and even then it was for a short time, not to mention he met his father in the middle of a war.

"You should not come into an unknown territory young man." A voice spoke from behind him. Naruto turned to see a black haired man with blond bangs and black goatee, leaning against a tree.

"I just came to reunite a girl with her family." Naruto said calmly.

"I can see that but still you cause some unrest among our ranks." The man said with a smirk.

"I'm sorry, it was not my intention to cause any trouble here." He apologized with a short bow.

"Ah forget about it. I'm Azazel, kid." The man said taking out a bottle of sake from his coat. "You want a drink? This is some top level stuff, I'm telling you this."

'So this is the Leader of Fallen Angels.' He thought. "No thanks. I will have to pass as I got somewhere to be." Replied Naruto as he turned to leave.

"Are you sure? I was not lying when I said that this stuff is top notch." The Governor General of Grigori muttered in low voice. "Anyways, you have my thanks for helping one of my own,..." he trailed off not knowing his name.

"Uzumaki Naruto and you're welcome. I only did what was right." The shinobi replied.

"You killed Bolg Paimon, heir to his house. They will not leave you alone if they find out about your involvement." The usual smile left his face as he stared at Naruto seriously.

Naruto's eyes turned cold at the mention of the devil he had killed. "If they are like him then I will gladly take them on." His cold voice was not lost to Azazel. "I don't like killing but trash like him do not deserve to live."

Both locked eyes and after a moment the fallen angel broke the contact.

"Your secret is safe with me. I will not tell anyone about your involvement in this matter." Naruto gave a small nod to him before vanishing in a flash.

"You were supposed to detain him..." a rough voice said from behind him.

"Chill up Shemhazai. He is no threat, I can tell you that." The silver-white haired man looked like he wants to protest but Azazel raised his hand, stopping him.

"Shemhazai, you know I'm a good judge of character. I have been monitoring him since the moment he stepped inside our territory. Trust me on this and leave the boy alone." A set of pure black wings came out of his back as he took to the skies, leaving his friend alone.

Bael Castle: 1 Month Later

"I'm sorry Layla but Lord Zekram is not willing to help us here." A brown haired man with violet eyes said with a sigh. "He is not willing to lend us a force when we don't even know if Venelana is alive or not."

Layla gritted her teeth. "But I'm sure that she is alive. We should help her, Zac-sama." She said.

"I know but no one can go against him. I want to help my sister as well but my hands are tied." Zac Bael, half-brother of Venelana replied. "Lord Zekram still wants his son Zane back. According to him, no one is better suited to lead the House of Bael than him. He will not take any step to displease him further." He explained in a solemn tone.

"Fine. Then come with me, we two..." she trailed off when he raised a hand.

"We two are not enough. My grandfather is a 'Super Devil'. He far exceeds us in both power and skill." Zac stated firmly. As much as he wants to help his sister, he knows that Zane will butcher them.

"So we should just leave her alone?!" She yelled furiously. "You were not there when that monster appeared on the field. He absolutley destroyed our troops and even injured Venelana gravely before capturing her."

Zac remained silent. He knows how cruel his grandfather can be. He was not only a true master in using his fabled 'Power of Destruction' but was also completely ruthless and merciless in battle, a truly dangerous combo.

"We need to wait for Sirzechs and others to return. We can request them to help us discreetly." He spoke making her scowl.

"You are leaving her alone on that man's mercy? You know that Sirzechs-san and other will not be back for another two or three weeks." Zac turned his back towards her.

"There is nothing we can do. Let's say that I agree with you and both of us attack that castle, what will happen then?" He looked at her seriously. "Zane Bael will destroy us. He killed my father just because he refused to obey his orders, do you really think he will let us live?" Layla looked down, already knowing the answer.

Zane Bael was the true personification of evil and like his friend, Rizevim Livan Lucifer, believes that the devils should be evil and ruthless. So far their faction was winning against the Old Maou Faction but that all changed when he and Rizevim decided to join the battle.

Both devils were snapped out of their thoughts when a guard entered the room and kneels in front of them.

"You better have a good reason for this." Zac glared at the man who shuddered slightly.

"My apologies, Lord Zac. There is a blond man outside the castle and he refuses to leave until he meets, Venelana-sama." He informed the two.

"And that requires my attention because?" Zac scowled at him.

"My Lord, he knocked out my entire group when we moved to restrain him." Zac let out a growl. He did not have time to deal with pests.

"Let's go. I will teach him a lesson." Before Layla could stop him, he already left the room with the guard.

Xox

"You have to better than that, Bael-chan." Naruto said, grinning like a fox before he was impaled by a spear.

"Know your place, insect." Zac smirked but it vanished as Naruto burst in a poof of smoke.

'Another clone...' he growled.

"Tsk tsk, Bael-chan let me see Venelana and I'll be on my way." Naruto appeared near a tree.

"I told you she's not feeling well. Who are you anyway? I have never seen you here before." Zac questioned, summoning a brown magic circle.

"I'm Uzumaki Naruto. You can say I'm her friend as to why you never saw me here? We both met close to her manor in the forest a couple of years ago." There was no need for him to lie here. He only came here to meet the first person he has met in this world.

Zac stopped but the magic circle was still present. "You have to leave. I already told you that she is ill at the moment and isn't allowed to meet anyone." He hopes that the blond will leave now peacefully.

Naruto stared at him, he could feel the man's emotions easily. "I will leave for now." Zac sighed in relief at that. "But I'll be back in a week." Without another word, he turned and walked away.

"Return to your posts." Zac said as all the guards left.

"He is still in the underworld. We thought he left when he vanished from the manor without informing anyone." Layla spoke, walking towards the current Head of Bael clan.

"You know him?" Zac looked at her with a raised brow.

She nodded her head. "Yes, Venelana had saved him from bleeding to death two years ago but he left after a month and we both thought he is gone from the underworld." She replied.

"I see." Zac said and turned to leave. "I'll inform you once Sirzechs is back." She nodded her head, still feeling frustrated at not being able to help her friend.

At Night: Phenex Castle

"You should sleep now Layla. I'm sure that Venelana-san will be back soon." Raven Phenex, Head of Phenex clan said as he left the room.

"You don't know anything about what I'm feeling, brother." The blond woman said in a low voice.

Knock!

Knock!

"Who is it?" She asked.

"It's me, Ruval. Can I come in Oba-chan?"

She smiled slightly hearing the voice of her only nephew and walked to the door to greet him. As soon as she opened the door the little boy jumped into her arms with a grin.

"I told you that you don't have to ask for permission to meet me, Ruval-chan." She said rubbing his hair as he giggled softly. "So how's my dear nephew?" She asked, sitting in a chair and placing him back on the ground.

"I'm good Oba-chan." Ruval replied and opened the window. "I came here so you can meet my new friend." He walked to the closed window and opened it. A second later a white owl flew through the window and settled on his shoulder.

"Hello." Her eyes widened when the owl spoke and waved at her with one of his wings. "Sorry but I didn't have any other way to contact you Layla-san so I used young Ruval here."

"Who are you?" Her eyes narrowed as a small ball of fire forced him to leave his spot and she quickly pulled Ruval behind her. "Speak now or I will incinerate you." She threatened.

"Man you could ask this pleasantly." It muttered making the temperature in the room increase drastically. "Woah woah okay lady, I'm not here to harm you. Let's talk pleasently now."

"Answer my question first." She stated sternly.

It sighed before a poof of smoke engulfed it. Both devils couldn't hide their surprise and shock when it clears to show Naruto standing there with a nervous smile on his face.

"YOU!" Layla shouted in surprise.

"Sugoi! That was so cool." Ruval said with stars in his eyes.

"Hehehe yeah I know that." Naruto gives him a thumbs up. "Sorry but I had no way to contact you." He apologized, his face fully serious now.

"What you want to talk about? Zac-sama told you that Venelana is sick." She said, moving back to sit in her seat.

"You are lying." He told her bluntly. "I can sense emotions you know. So don't try to lie to me."

"It doesn't matter." She clenched her fists. "We cannot help her."

"Don't sell me short, Layla. I'm a trained soldier and owe a debt to Venelana for saving my life. I'm not going to left her alone in whatever situation she is in right now." He said determinedly.

"Forget it." He frowned slightly. "I told you that we cannot help her. We need to wait for Sirzechs-san first."

"You don't know when he will return." He pointed out. "Just come with me and I promise that we will save her. Tell me, would you be able to ever forgive yourself if your hesitance cost you Venelana?" He looked at her as she avert her gaze from him.

"But... Zac-sama and others told m-"

"Forget about them. It's your life Layla and Venelana is your friend. It should be your decision so don't let others dictate what you can or can't do." He cut her off, many people wanted him to give up on bringing back Sasuke but he never listened to them as he was his friend.

"So what's your answer?"

She looked up nodded her head. "Let's do this." Naruto grinned before both turned to see Ruval sleeping soundly on the floor.

"What happened to him?" Layla muttered.

"I put him to sleep." Naruto replied with a chuckle. "You want anything before we go?"

"No, I have everything that I think I'll need." She replied as a golden armor appeared on her body.

"Alright then, let's do this." the shinobi said with a grin.

Chapter End~

Please review it and let me know what you think.

Thank You.
