A DEVIL'S RETURN HOME
-: CHAPTER 2:-
Rias Gremory couldn't believe her luck.
She was a devil, wasn't she? Shouldn't that give her some points above others?
In her opinion, whoever said having the devils luck did NOT consider her in mind when they said it.
She had just arrived after a meeting with her brother and parents from the Gremory castle and it did not go the way however she planned it to be.
It is suffice to say that she was NOT pleased.
Her peerage hadn't shown a lot of growth in terms of number OR strength. Akeno still hadn't been able to use her lightning powers to their full abilities, Koneko though strong, was a Nekoshou who didn't want to do a thing related to Senjutsu, Kiba had his own problems and she still had trouble teaching Gasper on how to control his powers. She had her eyes on a certain pervert who might contain a powerful sacred gear but even training him could take months, and that was after he could be reincarnated into a devil. The playboy of the Underworld still hadn't backed off from their supposed engagement. Her only hope was to challenge him to a rating game, but even she knew, deep down in her heart, that with her peerage as it is now, she would lose.
And to top it off, the hot water supply to the ORC HQ had broken off, which meant no hot water showers for at least a couple of days.
Yeah. Not a good day to be Rias Gremory.
FLASHBACK…..
"I have said this a thousand times before Onii-sama and I will say it again, I WILL NOT MARRY RISER PHENEX!" Rias said as she entered her brother's study, her tone rising and growing more venomous with every syllable she uttered.
"Believe me Ria-tan, I don't wish for him to lay a single finger on you. But even if I am Lucifer now, my hands are tied. This was a contract made before your birth and the devil society needs it."
"Did somebody even think of what I needed? I should get a say in who I want to spend the rest of my life with don't you think?"
Unable to take it anymore, she stormed out of the castle.
FLASHBACK END
Rias was cut out of her musings when she felt a strange power enshroud the entire area, making a warm fuzzy feeling run down her spine, but as soon as it came, it was gone and it left a pure shockwave of residual energy, throwing her of her feet and rattling multiple cupboards and cabinets in the clubroom. She got up, and summoned her entire peerage, and went off to check the source of this strange power, not bothering to correct her dishevelled hair the shockwave had left it in. she was pretty sure that it was sensed over all of Kuoh by now, and if she knew her correctly, Sona wouldn't be far behind from where she was.
MEANWHILE, WITH NARUTO.
A purple portal open up in thin air on the outskirts of the town of Kuoh and out came Naruto's entire peerage, who looked to be in no better conditions than himself.
Naruto Uzumaki was in a tight spot.
He knew he should have used 'land' at the end of the sealing array. Thankfully, he was able to restrain Kakashi Sensei from erupting all over him.
Seriously, that guy needed help.
He surveyed his surroundings, immediately going into "Battle Mode" but relaxed when he saw no hostilities in the immediate surroundings.
"Wow! That did not go as well as I thought it would!"
"I told you the sealing array should have ended at 'land' not 'jump' you brat!"
The others untangled themselves from the mess that they had made themselves as well and started to try and figure out where exactly had they landed.
"Oh come on! Everything was going so smoothly but then that shockwave came out of nowhere!" Ino groaned in annoyance as she tried to fix her hair.
"Where exactly are we?" asked Sakura, not recognizing the place where they had landed.
"It looks like we have landed in this small town called Kuoh in the country of Japan. They have a language similar to ours and follow albeit somewhat similar customs to what we did back in the elemental nations. From what previous information we have gathered, this is a devil stronghold, being ruled by the Gremory and Sitri clans. We have basically intruded on their territory, we better be on our guard." Shikamaru drawled out.
Suddenly Akamaru led out a low, menacing growl. Kiba's ears perked up as he sniffed the air.
"Uhh….. Guys….. We've got company."
Naruto immediately went into his ANBU Captain mode, as others had dubbed it.
"Report." He barked out.
"Two groups, one from the west it seems, a total group of four, containing three females and one male, while the other is from the North east, this one is a pair of girls, I sense high magic power within both groups. Contact expected in 4 minutes" The group sensor, Karin replied.
"Everyone, team formations! Mask your presence. We don't know if these are friendlies. No use running now, our energy is all over this place. Better not give them a trail to follow. Once we get out of here, we begin our work. Now go!" Naruto ordered.
It took less than a second, but everyone had left the clearing with either a flurry of leaves or a flash of crimson, leaving no trace behind.
Soon after they were gone two groups landed in the now empty clearing.
The larger of the groups was led by Rias herself, who was flanked by her queen, Akeno Himejima and her rook, Koneko Toujo. Bringing up the rear was her knight, Kiba Yuuto.
The other group consisted of the Sitri clan heiress Sona Sitri, and her Queen, Tsubaki Shinra.
Rias and Sona walked up towards the clearing and started surveying the area,
"So you sensed it too didn't you Rias?" it was more of a statement rather than a question.
"All the way from the clubroom." Rias replied. There is still a lot of it left over around the area; we should take some as samples.
The six teens enhanced their devil powers and felt around; trying to get a hold of what exactly was that caused this mini whiplash to occur in the first place.
"What is this energy?" Tsubaki questioned, not being able to put a finger on the dense chakra, which enshrouded the entire clearing like a dense fog.
"It feels like magic, but there is a large amount of chakra that is lingering in the air."
"A youkai maybe?" Kiba questioned.
"Or a devil who has somehow managed to get an unknown species of Youkai into his peerage."
"President, there is something else."
"What is it Koneko?"
"I sense Senjutsu in this place, a large amount of it. But it is different. It feels…more calm and peaceful."
"That only reinforces the idea of this being some unknown Youkai."
"Hmmm… we can't do anything about it now, everyone just remember this magic signature, and keep a lookout for it."
And just like that, they were gone, their respective clan teleportation circles appearing below them.
Once they were gone, the Genjutsu over the area faded and Naruto and his group appeared once again.
"That would be the Gremory and Sitri heiress if the clan circles were anything to go by." Shikamaru answered the still unasked, but lingering question everyone had.
"We will deal with them later. For now we have work to do, you all know your jobs, get to them." Naruto replied.
And they disappeared once again.
O-O-O
Two weeks.
Two weeks was all it took for Naruto and his peerage to form a solid identity in this new world and learn its ways.
But given Naruto's ability to abuse shadow clones like anything, a few well-placed and discreet henge and Sharingan enabled Genjutsu, it was a given.
He used this time to travel back to the elemental nations and bring back his remaining wives and transfer the funds from the Namikaze and Uzumaki vaults from there to here. The Sharingan helped greatly in this regard, putting all the way too inquisitive eyes in a deep sleep while he exchanged all the gold for this world's hard currency. He still left a generous amount to his sons and daughters back home.
Currently, Naruto stood in the living room of his lavish, 3 story mansion that he had purchased soon after coming into this world. Tomorrow would be the day when he officially made his entrance into the devil world. He had already met up with the current ruler of Devils, the current Lucifer, Sirzechs who also happened to be the brother of one hot redhead named Rias Gremory. It had mainly been to claim any inheritance the Uzumaki might have left in the underworld and gain access to the Uzumaki vaults. He also wanted to reopen the Uzumaki clan compound down in the underworld. The meeting had been, in one word, interesting to say at the least.
FLASHBACK
Sirzechs Lucifer eyed the young devil that had requested a meeting with him on the prospect of bringing a clan thought lost to the underworld back to its rightful place among the 72 pillars of the Devils.
He wore blue shinobi sandals, dark blue shinobi pants and a green flak jacket over a mesh shirt. He also had his father's cloak along with his mother's signature katana, strapped to his back.
Grafiya Lucifuge eyed the odd bunch before them. Both of them could sense immense power rolling off them in waves. It made both Grafiya a tad bit nervous. There were traces of magic in it, but it wasn't the predominant force within them. It was Chakra, a powerful energy source only accessible to the youkai faction. The amount of it coming off the youngest of the one was so much that it wasn't even funny. Well, it was befitting for an Uzumaki after all.
Tsunade straightened herself and gave a look to the others as well. As Naruto's queen, she thought it to be her duty to guide her king. She hoped to make a formal and proper introduction and bring things on track while they met with the current Satan. She opened her mouth to speak
"Greetings, My name is Tsu-"
But a whiskered Jinchuriki beat her to it.
"Yo! How's it hanging?"
….
….
….
A few moments earlier, with Naruto.
Naruto Uzumaki was in a tight spot. Again.
He had never been in such a place before. Yeah, sure he did meet up at the Kage summit after the war, but they had fought together and had become to know each other quite well. Raikage Ji-chan was pretty cool, even if he was a bit of a battle crazy. He had been on good terms with Kurotsuchi as well. Mei was a different story altogether. She always talked with him in an extremely sultry voice and would always be too close and ahem…. Physical in greetings for his comfort, but she was a good person and an amazing ninja. He and Gaara went way back. He was more like a brother to him now, jinchuriki status notwithstanding.
He had obviously not been in a room in such a situation before this. So he pondered for a moment on what he should say.
Aaahh….. When in doubt, Go Kakashi!
"Yo! How's it hanging?" and he raised up a lazy one handed salute, showing one of his infamous, Foxy-Grins.
If you could see inside Kakashi's mindscape, you would find a masked Kakashi holding banners and small fans and doing a mini victory dance as he spilled anime tears.
'My student has finally took on to the cool and hip way of the shinobi!'
"Naruto…" Tsunade asked in a very sickly sweet tone voice that promised pain of the highest order.
"What have I told you about opening your trap when we go and meet foreign dignitaries?"
"Uhhhhh… don't do it?" Naruto had now backed himself up a corner near the wall while Tsunade walked towards him, her eyes glinting, knuckles cracking as an ominous purple aura surrounded her.
"THEN YOU WILL DO WELL TO REMEMBER IT BRAT!" Tsunade shouted as she punched the wall near his head, cracks appearing in the wall where her hand made contact, making the blonde shiver.
The entire devil group just sweat dropped on seeing the entire scene unfold before them.
"As I was saying before I was rudely interrupted, my name is Tsunade Senju, queen to the Uzumaki clan. This is one of our peerage's Knights, Kakashi Hatake and the man-child over there is my king, Naruto Uzumaki."
"Greetings Tsunade-San, I am Sirzechs Lucifer, the leader of the devil faction and this is my queen, Grayfia Lucifuge." The Lucifer said as he sat behind his table, his fingers intertwining together under his chin.
The strongest queen gave a small bow of acknowledgement.
"I must say the name Uzumaki hasn't been heard amongst the Devils over here in a long time. It was a name held alongside the Gremory and Sitri as one of the most powerful. To claim to be descending from a line of such high class pure blooded devils, do you have any proof to back up your claims?"
It was a logical request, in Naruto's opinion, he had been Hokage once. So he knew he couldn't just take things at face value. So he summoned his peerage using the teleportation circle.
Seeing the infamous red spiral light up once again made both the Lucifer and his queen eyes widen.
But why after so long? And what was this strange mix of chakra and Senjutsu he sensed from the entire peerage? Devils shouldn't have the ability to mould chakra like that.
"Very well mister Uzumaki, have a seat, I believe some questions are in order."
One long ass explanation later.
"That is a very interesting turn of events Uzumaki-san", sirzechs said after hearing Naruto's and the Uzumaki clan's story up until this point.
The possibility of another dimension, completely separate from their own was a fascinating thought for him. And for the Uzumaki have travelled far into it, it was simply amazing. He mentally chuckled. There was a reason why the Uzumaki were called masters of sealing. There was no other like them.
And while the concept of child soldiers and human weapons was a bit unsettling to him, he couldn't help but admire the young Uzumaki and his peerage.
The young boy, no….. Man he reminded him so much of himself, in ways more than one.
He could sense that he withheld great power. Almost on the same level that he had. He also commanded the same respect and admiration among his people that he did amongst the devil here.
When he first asked him what he would do with his peerage, he said that he would protect them with his life. They would be his comrades, brothers and sisters in arms. What did he call them…..Aaahh… yes…. His 'precious people'.
But do you know what was the most striking feature that reminded him of himself were? It were his eyes.
Eyes that have seen the horror that war brings to people, eyes that have seen the light of life fade from their comrades' eyes as they departed for the afterlife right in front of them. Eyes that withheld great sorrow. But they also had the determination to move mountains. A look that showed that the man wouldn't hesitate an instant to sacrifice everything he had for his people. Eyes that held the promise to bring everlasting peace. It was the same look he had during the Great War. And just like himself, he hides all that pain and sorrow behind a mask of goofiness and childish humour.
Those were the eyes of a true leader.
He even saw some of his memories, his battle prowess during the fourth great ninja war, his drive to protect his precious people, even his relationship with other four of his girlfriends. How the people admired him, worshipped him even, but he never let any of that get into his head. He saw so much of himself in him that it was uncanny. The same insane amount of power, the same desire for everlasting peace. Even though he was born in a land where kids were trained with martial intent and had gone through something no 17 year old should go through, he knew that he would protect his little sister with his life if need be. He was a damn well choice over riser.
Already a plan was forming in the Satan's head. It was time that he acted like the older brother he should.
"Very well then, Naruto-san. I will see to it that the clan compound is unsealed and the funds are transferred in your name. Kuoh academy is the devil stronghold, I suggest visiting it. My sister and Serafall's sister both attend the same academy, it wouldn't hurt you to gain some allies while you start your devil journey now wouldn't it?"
FLASHBACK END.
"Alright guys, as much as I hate to say it, tomorrow me and Shikamaru will be attending school. It will give us a chance to gain more insight into this world and if we are lucky, we might also gain some really good and powerful allies in the process. Since it is of no use for all of us to be concentrated at one place, the rest of us will explore the area and scan for threats, if any. Even though this place looks really peaceful from our old home. So basically, everybody else is free to do what they want. Look around and learn. Just stay safe."
Tomorrow would be the day the Uzumaki rose once again.
O-O-O
Naruto and Shikamaru walked through the gates of Kuoh academy, ignoring the various comments being passed out about them as they entered the school grounds. where they came from, they were used to them anyway.
"Hey who are the two new guys?"
"The brown haired one's hairstyle kind of reminds me of a pineapple."
"He looks to be half asleep."
"Kyaaaaaa! The blonde looks so cute!"
"Those birthmarks look like whiskers."
"Whatever! He looks hot!"
Ignoring all the sighs and squeals of adoration from the females and the hated glares from the males, both boys moved towards the main building.
"Well, time to see what this academy has to offer."
O-O-O
While Naruto and Shikamaru were making their way through Kuoh Academy, they were also being watched by two devils from the window of the ORC Building.
"Hmm, what do you think about him, huh Rias?" Sona asked.
Their presence had been quite obvious to them, even before they had entered the main gates of the academy. A fellow king and his pawn. The fact that their energy signature matched exactly to the one they had encountered a few weeks ago made this all the more interesting.
"It is quite odd to see one of us here, he doesn't seem to be someone who could be hostile though, and he may be just looking around. After all, this city is our stronghold; it is known to have multiple sacred gear wielders."
"Do you plan on meeting him?"
"I'd rather use the wait and see approach for now, see what he is up to. I'll deal with him later in my own playful way." Rias said with a smirk as Akeno let out a giggle behind them.
The young devil was extremely powerful, no doubt about it. This was not necessarily a bad thing. Powerful acquaintances now would soon turn into strong allies later.
And by the Satan, she would need them, considering what was soon about to happen.
"Very well then, I will be taking my leave then."
"Ara Ara, things are sure ly about to get interesting around here aren't they president?"
"Yes they are Akeno, yes they are."
I'll be seeing you around devil-kun.
O-O-O
Walking through the huge crowd that Kuoh academy attended to had been a pain, but Naruto and Shikamaru had finally been able to find the classroom they were supposed to be in. Classroom 2B,
They were waiting outside the door now, waiting for the teacher to announce for them to come in.
"Class, we have two new students this year who will be joining us. I expect you to treat them with the same respect you show to all of your current peers here." The teacher said.
"Come in, both of you!"
Almost all the girls instantly had hearts in their eyes when they saw both of them enter the classroom. The boys though, Shikamaru and Naruto would have been ash flying in the dust right now if looks could kill. Especially from a certain perverted trio. While with Naruto, it was a given considering his foxy like grin he always had plastered on his face and his ability to make friends with almost anybody, people would be surprised to know that it was a similar case with Shikamaru.
It had started off back in Konoha in wake of Pein's attack on the Village, but in order to boost morale within the village and also to get a sizable chunk of his slowly growing fan girl population, Naruto had let it slip o the girls about him being a secret Genius, with an IQ of over 200.
Shikamaru's own Lazy, carefree aloof persona didn't help in this matter as well. If at all, it only helped his fan base grow even more. There was a certain charm in those half lidded, yet attentive eyes that appealed to the girls back home.
In Naruto's opinion, it was one of the best pranks he ever pulled, right in the list with painting the Hokage's monument and knocking back Iruka sensei with his sexy ninjutsu.
Instantly they were fired with questions ranging from "Where you are from" to "do you have a girlfriend."
Shikamaru began first.
"Well, my name is Nara Shikamaru. I like taking naps, playing shogi and cloud watching with my friends and girlfriend. Not necessarily in the same order though. I particularly dislike anything which would cause a lot of work" 'Mendoukse'
Naruto mustering up the best Kakashi voice he could, began "Yo! My name is Uzumaki Naruto, I have may likes and I have a lot of dislikes, as for my dream, well…..there is no need for you to know that now"
The entire class, which had been on the edge of their seats to know about this new kid almost face faulted, all they learned was his name. What kind of introduction was that?
"Very well Uzumaki san, Nara san you both may take the two empty seats beside Issei Hyoudou."
While both of them went to sit in their respective seats, Rias's mind was running at a hundred miles a minute. Uzumaki, where had she heard the name before? She was trying to remember it exactly where she had heard about it when the king turned to her and gave her one of those grins he had given at the beginning and waved. Only one thought came to her mind even when the smile left her all flustered and flushed up, though she was too busy to pay attention to such a detail.
He knows.
Alright! So the second chapter is finished. It looks like it's time for me to clear some of the stuff up which I did not explain in the previous chapter. I have also expanded the harem form the Naruto Universe at least. So here it goes.
Naruto's harem. (Naruto universe)

Haruno Sakura.
Yukie Fujikaze.
Priestess Shion.
High School DxD Universe
Rias
Others might be added later, as the storyline progresses. Sarada was his and Sakura's daughter, if anyone didn't catch up to that.
