The Legend of Hope Chapter 16: Naruto ascends
The attack was over. The Yevon troops got to the Summoner's sanctum, and captured Yuna. The alive Al Bhed, Yuna's guardians, and Naruto and his group, got on board Cid's Airship, and left. Cid Blew up the Al Bhed home.
"We have to get to Bevelle. It's a bit of a distance away though. We'll be in time" Naruto said. They flew around, for 2 days, before the guardian wyrmm, Earvae, was in view. Naruto sighed.
"Let's go" Naruto said. They all went to the deck, and were attacked. Earvae then came in close. Naruto sighed again. He knew, it was time.
"Fall back guys. Head to Bevelle. I'll take care of this" Naruto said, sprouting 8 of his tails. He then jumped on Earvae.
"GO!!!!!!" Naruto said. The airship pulled away, as Naruto's tails began to squeeze the life out of Earvae.
"You little fiend. I'm going to kill you. You have no chance, against the Kyuubi" Naruto said. He yelled, and his chakra exploded, growing his final tail. It wrapped around Earvae. It flew over Bevelle.
Naruto now had blood red hair, sharp claws, and he also had fox ears. His teeth were now far sharper. His tails pierced Earvae's skin. Naruto then clawed Earvae, before finishing the guardian off, with a blade beam. The Wyrmm burst into Pyreflies.Naruto dropped into Beveel's church head, seeing that his plan worked. His 13 companions were reunited. They had defeated all the guards there, allowing Yuna to escape. Everyone gasped when they saw Naruto.
"What you see, is what was inevitable. The birth of the new Kyuubi You lost Seymour, so surrender" Naruto said. Seymour smirked. A powerful sleeping gas was released.
"You guys...get out of here. Lee...take this" Naruto said, ripping off one of his Runes. He did so, to allow Lee to use Chakra. Lee absorbed the Rune, and part of his hair turned Greyish. He was stunned, but ignored it. They all ran out of Bevelle, and onto the airship. Yuna and her guardians emerged from inside the temple, while Naruto rushed through it.
He woke up, and was in a detainment part of the dungeons known as Via Purifico. He remembered he had wings. He then Saw Isaaru, fighting against Yuna. Yuna was easily defeating Isaaru. He was a summoner Yuna met a Djose.
"Well, let me also deal some punishment to the other traitor" Isaaru said. Naruto saw Bahamut, an Aeon he already had, come forth to him. But Naruto smirked. He began to transform. This time, into what Kyuubi's true demon form looked like, with Ifrit's horn, Bahamut's wings, and some armor. Naruto simply breathed a massive fire on the Isaaru Bahamut, and defeated it.
"I have taken place, of former demon fox king, Kyuubi. Now, you have felt the power. With this power, Sin will die" Naruto said, before reverting back to normal.
2 days later...
Naruto was out. He was like that for the past few days. Hinata was crying over him. He was delivered to the Airship, after Yuna and her guardians escaped Via Purifico, and defeated Seymour again.
"He told me this would happen" Arashi said. That got Hinata's attention.
"Kyuubi. At times, He took control of Naruto, when he had something to say. Namely one time. When Naruto becomes a full fledged demon, he will have 24 hours to transform into his true demon form. From what I heard, It's correct, and he has done it. The reason why you think he's dead, is because his soul has left the body, to allow him to visit the demon council, on the demon's realm. Only the nine are allowed free access. He might have the highest rank now, but he still has to learn much. The 9 demons, are the world's guardians. They are what truly kept Sin sealed off, not Yevon" Arashi said. Hinata sniffled. Neji, being her surrogate brother, comforted her
"So basically, Naruto has a status far beyond Hokage?" Kiba asked. Arashi nodded.
"I can feel his pulse again" Hinata said. She was happy. But Naruto was still out.
"His body needs to still adjust to the changes. His chakra supply will increase, for his transformations. However, he is tensed up, due to battles. He'll be awake soon enough" Arashi said. Lee then looked at Naruto.
"This Rune in my chest. The one he threw at me, what does it mean? I mean, I feel calmer, Neji said I have a great amount of Chakra, and I've changed" Lee said. Sasuke smirked.
"He told me that those runes are the aeons. Aeons which he has acquired. It's Definitely Ixion, as that was the only one with silver hair. The aeons, he said, will lose their powers soon, and they've chosen him, yo carry their powers, so that they may continue to exist amongst the living" Sasuke said.
"Interesting" Shino said, in a normal monotone voice.
"But what does this mean? Because Naruto can Summon Lee, in this 'Ixion' form, does that mean Naruto trusts him enough to be a guardian?" Tenten asked
"Troublesome" Shkimaru said. Ino rolled her eyes at that. Chouji even did that, while eating. Sakura then went over to Naruto, and began to heal him. Sasuke kissed her cheek before anything though, making her blush. Tsunade joined in, on helping Naruto heal. Gaara then walked in, as he stretched his arms
"One would think" Itachi said. Lee smirked.
"One would know" Naruto said, waking up a bit. This made everyone gather.
"My soul heard everything. Even Gaara's. He to, made the ascension into full demon. He is the new Shukaku. He just had to sleep unforced to be successful" Naruto said. He was still being healed, until the two stopped.
"That should relax your body enough. We'll be around to help" Tsunade said. Naruto shook his head.
"No. This reunion was good and all, but more important matters are on hand. You still have a village to run. Konoha needs you guys still. It was a big risk to take you out in the first place. So please, return. Except for Sakura and Lee. Lee, we all know why, and Sakura, for the sole reason, that she is a fine medic. Team 7 will be reunited for the most part" Naruto said Everyone listened to that.
He knew, it was almost time, during he trip back to Konoha.
