AN: Alright well I'm gonna keep this AN short cuz I know all of you want to get to the story and I can't blame you. I'm pretty excited to write this chapter! Lot of shit is gonna happen!
By the way guys yes I know Kitsune is just fox translated, I'm not that dumb. The reason I made the distinction was that to me Kitsune are what, say Nekoshou are to the Neko, a rarer and much stronger sub-breed. In this case Kitsune are much more demonic than their relatives. I felt the need to do so because really saying Kurama is just a stronger plain old fox is kind of lame so yea.
The whole Youkai, Youki thing…yea my bad. To clarify Kurama is entirely made up of Youki, the demon equivalent of chakra. To make things clearer:
Humans = Chakra
Youkai/Demons/Monsters = Youki
Devils/Dragons = ….haven't decided on that yet. I know that some families are more attuned to certain things but I don't know if there's an official title to the source of their power. Help?
Angels/Fallen = Life energy. For Angels this means using the power of the 7 Virtues (Temperance, Courage, etc). like Goku and his Spirit Bomb. For Fallen it's the same but the 7 Deadly Sins (Lust, Anger, etc.)
Nekoushou/Certain Nature attuned Devils, Demons, Humans = Senjutsu
Obviously characters like Naruto, Koneko, and Akeno can use more than just one of those listed above but you get the general idea.
Also Los Zorro….I'm gonna make you my assistant or some shit haha, kudos to you!
Kudos to all of those that review in general!
To the chapter!
(Side note: If you guys want some epic music for this fight between Great Red and Naruto and don't mind heavier music I would recommend putting on Hail to the Queen by Dayshell, The Crazy Ones by Stellar Revival, and/or Metalingus by Alterbridge)
When Naruto's signature jutsu met Red's massive beam of energy something unexpected happened, the beam managed to halt the massive shuriken unlike before when it would simply carve a path through it. With a flap of his wings Red seemed to disappear to the naked eye, only to reappear behind Naruto, a scaled fist slamming into the back of the Uzumaki's skull with such power that his face slammed through the earth with enough force to make a hole in it. As Red's scaled fist met Naruto's skull, the explosion of their two previous techniques rocked the landscape not feet away.
Naruto didn't let this deter him though and donkey kicked Red in his soft belly with enough force to expel spittle and blood from Red's maw. In a flash Naruto picked himself up and spun around, Rasengan in hand and slammed the swirling ball into Red's snout, sending the True Dragon spinning away. Naruto refused to give his opponent a chance to breathe and immediately went through a series of seals before calling out "Katon: Hosenka no jutsu (Fire Release: Phoenix Sage Fire)!"
Red looked up as several fireballs burning a bright orange sped towards him intent on reducing him to ash. Red scoffed before he roared with enough power behind it that the sound made a concussive wave of air that collided with the fire balls and due to the amount of energy put into the roar, the flames were extinguished as they met the air wave.
Red then lashed his tail out behind himself, narrowly missing Naruto who had flashed behind the dragon god. Still Naruto continued and finished the chain of hand seals he had been going through, "Futon: Atsugai (Wind Release: Pressure Damage)."
Red was unable to dodge the attack as it was too close and so was exposed to the massive amount of wind force that pummeled him into the ground. Naruto tried to capitalize on this by summoning two Rasengans, intent on smashing them into the back of the crimson scaled dragon. He quickly had to abandon this plan though as Red's tail made itself known once more in an attempt to stab through his chest cavity. Naruto of course dodged but soon realized his mistake as the tail then wrapped itself around him, trapping his arms at his side. Before he could find a way out of the situation Red rose from his prone position and the tail brought Naruto in where Red slammed his scaled forehead against Naruto's, dazing the redhead. Taking advantage of Naruto being dazed Red used his tail to slam the Transcendent into the ground where he followed it up by stomping his feet into Naruto's abdomen, crushing several ribs in the process.
Red then pumped his wings and flew up above Naruto and unleashed another beam of energy straight down. The True Dragon narrowed his eyes as he saw that Naruto had not moved from the spot and if anything waited for the beam to strike. That's when he saw it, the foxy grin that made his baser instincts scream at him. The beam collided with the ground, exploding on impact and kicking up a veritable dust storm. It was in this dust storm that Great Red sensed it, several its actually. He was then bombarded from every direction by punches and kicks. While this would have been troublesome for most, Red's thick scaled hide protected him from most physical damage and the fists and feet that impacted with him felt like nothing more than nuisances. Red's anger eventually clouded his better judgment as he grew more and more frustrated that he could not counter attack as the hits were unpredictable.
Down below and out of the dust storm, Naruto stood with his arms crossed as one of his clones used his high affinity to wind to keep the dust storm going. Naruto knew how tough Red's scales were and that he would need to use chakra to actually do any damage but the hits his clones were dealing weren't meant to damage but to aggravate. He had been told various times in his youth that he was a rather irritating person, especially when he was the Prank King, and many of his enemies still thought of him as such due to his uncanny ability to derail their plans without an effort. Taking this into mind he had took his skills in pranking and irritation and incorporated them into his fighting style. What Red was experiencing was what he liked to call the "Odokemono no Shikata: Mitsubachi no Mure (Way of the Joker: Swarm of Bees)". His kage bunshin would swarm the enemy and cause them to be overcome by irritation, worsening their judgment in battle due to their irritation. Using a cover like the dust storm helped as well, and Great Red not knowing he could make physical copies of himself helped even more.
Came here to blow off some steam and just sparring with Red has done just that. Now I know anytime I'm pissed or want to blow shit up to come find Red haha!
With that Naruto signaled to his clone to stop the dust storm altogether and waited, wishing he had a camera to capture Red's reaction.
Red had about had it with the redhead and was now intent on tearing the pest limb from limb. He had tried to escape but each time but was met with a fist to the face. Trying to blow away the dust storm with his wings meant that said appendages would receive several hits. When the dust storm finally did clear though what Red saw caused his blood to boil as standing there with his arms crossed and a smirk on his face was Naruto. Normally he would have questioned how the redhead was fast enough to hit him and then disappear but his anger overrode that thought process.
"UZUMAKI! I'M GOING TO MURDER YOU AND USE YOUR BONES AS TOOTHPICKS!" roared the severely pissed off Dragon God.
Naruto just grinned his signature foxy grin, a rasengan forming in his right hand. "You're welcome to try ya overgrown lizard!"
With another roar of anger Great red flapped his wings and rocketed towards Naruto with such speed he began to blur. Naruto though just shook his head. He knew that Great Red was the only being in existence who could possibly challenge him but Red's body was still not used to fighting for so long at such levels. Red hadn't had a decent fight or reason to flex his power in centuries and so he had become lax and unfamiliar with his own power. Naruto on the other hand had not months ago come out of a war that had pushed him, mentally and physically, to his limits and beyond even that. Given time he and Red would be able to fight for possibly days on end, destroying the landscape that was the Dimensional Gap. It was already evident that Red had improved by leaps and bounds from their last little spat.
Naruto's form blurred only to reappear in front of Great Red and before the dragon could do much of anything Naruto was underneath him, a Rasengan inches from his underbelly. Red's last thought before the ball hit was, The little brat fucking played me….damnit!
Red was rocketed into the air by the swirling chakra ball but that wasn't the end of it. Naruto appeared in crimson flash above him, two more Rasengans in hand. To Red's further shock three more Naruto's appeared, each with two Rasengans in their hands. The real Naruto called out, "Rasenrendan (Spiralling Barrage)!" and all Red knew from there was Pein…sorry I mean pain.
When Naruto flashed back to his home he had expected to see Ophis there, maybe even Rias and he wasn't surprised to find that they were indeed there. He was surprised to see Akeno as well as Koneko though. The people they were with surprised Naruto even more, for standing there in his living room was his mother, Kurama, Anko, Mei, and some girl with long raven black hair. What made him uneasy was that each side was looking at each other like they were enemies that stood in the way of what they wanted.
Before Naruto could even get out a confused sound he was glomped by his mother. The hit woke him up and so he was able to catch her and hold her up with ease. "Kaa-san? But…what….how? Actually how are the rest of you here?"
Kurama took this time to saunter up to Naruto and offer him her own foxy smirk (where do you think he got it from?), "That would be me Naru-kun. Already forget that me, my brothers and sisters dimension traveled as well? Though taking these four along for the ride cost me 7 tails instead of the 5 it usually takes."
"Well I'm happy to see you all but why? I thought you all wanted to stay in the Elemental Nations."
All Naruto received was deadpan looks from the girls. He sweatdropped and rubbed the back of his nervously, "Right stupid question sorry. But really, why now of all times?"
"That would be a combination of my fault and your mother's Naru-kun," Kurama explained.
Kushina took this time to stand on her own two feet and admire the man her son had become. "Well as you know Kurama is a rather powerful empath and being her container meant that you inherited some of that. Not enough to make you an empath yourself but enough that your emotions are very important to you and your power. Due to the unique nature of Uzumaki chakra and its adaptability it took this link to your emotions and connected them. Your chakra and emotions became linked in such a way that one would affect the other. Due to this your genes once more mutated this power into a weapon as it saw that it could be a useful tool to you just like my chakra chains. Your chakra and emotions have the ability to seep into others and begin to influence that person. When you're happy so are those around you. When you are mad so are those around you. It was quite literally your determination and belief in others that brought out the best in your comrades and those around you in such situations," Naruto nodded along as he took a seat where an all too happy Koneko seated herself in his lap. All present glared at the girl for a minute.
Kushina coughed to regain herself and continued, "Normally without you around this affect would wear off almost instantly. Depending on how long you spent around that person though they may become addicted to the feeling of your emotions, being that you yourself are such an emotive person. We were special cases though. Both myself and Kurama had been sealed in you for the better part of seventeen years. You spent quite some time with Anko here and you knew Saya here for almost as long as we were sealed in you. As such we became connected to you in such a way that when you were in pain a few hours ago we also felt it," Kushina said with a breath at the end.
Naruto merely raised his hand as if he were in a classroom, asking permission to speak. Kushina giggled and nodded her head, "Am I to assume the raven haired girl is Saya?"
Kushina and the others nodded at that.
"Am I also to assume that Saya is actually Sasuke who had to hide his….er…her gender away for some convoluted reason or another?"
Again he was met with nods, albeit slightly nervous ones.
Naruto hmm'd at that before he nodded. He then picked up Koneko from his lap and placed her on the seat next to him. He then stared at his house's guests before he said, "Nighty night," and fainted on the spot.
Koneko, Rias, and Akeno began to slightly panic, Mei glared at Saya who grew a tick mark, Anko began to roll around the floor laughing, and both Kushina and Kurama could only sweatdrop. Kushina turned to Kurama and said, "Well that went better than we thought ne?"
A few minutes later we find Naruto awake once more, massaging his forehead as he tried to sort all that had happened in the past few minutes. First he finds out that in a weird way people could almost get high off of just being around him and the person who he had considered a brother for a great portion of his young life was actually a girl….a very attractive girl but a girl nonetheless.
He turned to the female Uchiha, "I'm not even gonna bother asking why you hid it for so long or why you chose to release it after I left because frankly it's probably something that will cause me even more of a headache than I already have." Naruto then turned to his mother, "And how the hell are you alive? If I remember right you had gotten stabbed by a certain someone's claw and only a portion of your spirit was kept in me but that too faded after you helped me tame Kurama soo….what the fuck?"
Naruto received a smack to the back of his head in response, "Language young man!"
He stared back at her blankly, "No offense but I think it's a bit too late to be trying to lecture me like that. I love you mom, I do but I know next to nothing about you and you only came to me well into my life, after I had struggled to survive for the first ten or so years of my life."
Kushina bowed her head in sadness and shame as she knew he was right. There was no logical way that she could just come back into his life and hope he would accept her as his mother with open arms. Kurama had told her what kind of life her child had led and she was surprised he hadn't snapped or became so jaded as to be emotionless. The fact that he was alive and able to smile was a miracle.
"I know soch….Naruto-kun. But I still want to be a part of your life now that I'm here and if eventually you come to accept me as your mother then great but if not…well as long as I can be with you in your life and make you happy then I'll be happy too."
Naruto got up from his seat and wrapped his mother in his arms. Kushina gripped his shirt with her fists and began to cry at their situation. She meant what she said but that didn't make it hurt any less that she could possibly never be the mother that she had wanted to be for Naruto. A selfish part of her blamed Minato for her current position but deep down she knew that she could have very well stopped it, in fact there were a lot of things she and Minato could have done to save Naruto from the life he had but that was in the past, a "what if" and that's all it would ever be for them.
Once Kushina calmed down enough Naruto asked again, "So how are you alive?"
Kushina wiped her tears and cleared her throat, "Well it ties into the Uzumaki bloodline again. You see it is the reason that your body had all the benefits you did from housing Kurama was because it saw what Kurama could offer and so used that. Much the same it saw what I could offer and so decided to take some of my abilities and give them to you. That's why you can now use the chakra chains and that's also why your hair changed colors. At first both your ideals and situation needed your father's Namikaze genes to 'survive'. At the time his genes better suited you and so your body adjusted. When we met and after the struggle to tame Kurama your bloodline thought that your Uzumaki genes would be more useful to you and so it used my pureblooded Uzumaki genes as a base and went from there. It also helped that at that time you changed your views from those of your father's who embodied The Will of Fire to something more in line with that of Uzu. Like I said before your emotions play a big part in your body and such and so when you took on the ideals of the Uzumaki clan your body changed to reflect that."
"I still don't see what that has to do with you being alive….OW!" Naruto wailed as he once more received a smack to the back of the head.
"I'm getting to that 'tebane!"
Naruto sat there and grumbled about violent women running his life or some other.
Kushina then continued, "As you know the Uzumaki bloodline is adaptability. When yours took part of my genes as a base for you, it unknowingly took a part of my soul in order to do so. This wouldn't have been anything special if it wasn't due to the mass amounts of youki you were surrounded by. When you let Kurama have free run of your body and you left it your body adjusted once more. It flowed pure youki in you making your body a demon if briefly. The chakra that you left behind had to go somewhere, it chose my soul fragment due to familiarity. When you took back your body it saw the chakra my soul fragment had as unnecessary and so it was ejected from your body. It would have dispersed into the world had it not been for my loose sense of consciousness holding it all together. From there I absorbed left over chakra and youki from the war and voila!" Kushina finished with a grin.
"So as it stands you're pretty much just a mass of chakra like a bijuu then?"
"Well I would have been yes but unlike the bijuu I had a physical body beforehand. I found said body and coursed the chakra I had as well as my conscious mind into it. The chakra kickstarted our bloodline and from there you can guess what happened."
"….honestly this all sounds like some deus ex machina shit but I just came from another dimension where I fought a Dragon God. The fuck do I know about logic?" Naruto chuckled.
"So Naruto-kun who are these…um…people?" Akeno asked as she smooshed Naruto's head in between her breasts.
Naruto wouldn't have minded staying like that but knew that several of the rooms occupants were currently trying to kill Akeno with just their eyes and Saya may just end up doing exactly that. With that in mind he pried himself from her grip, which the sadist pouted at, and stood in between the two factions.
"Well you know who the other redhead is now, my mom Kushina Uzumaki. The orange haired vixen is Kurama, or as you might know her, the Kyuubi no Kitsune." At that the girls turned and glared out of jealousy and a little bit of fear.
Kyuubi was a well known name in their world. Said to have been on par with the both Ophis and Great Red, she was truly a fearsome tale. The fact that it was said she could cause entire landscapes to change with but a flick of her tail was a scary thought indeed. It also didn't help that in front of them was a statuesque woman who looked as beautiful as she was powerful. Standing only a few inches shorter than Naruto's impressive six foot she had long dark orange hair that fell to her firm butt, with some of that hair separated into nine pony tails. She wore a small amount of black eye liner that made her crimson colored eyes stand out even more. She also wore a bright red lipstick on her plump lips. Covering her was a deep red colored yukata, the same shade as Naruto and Kushina's hair. An obi of sapphire blue was wrapped around her waist. The yukata did nothing to hide her figure as it ended just above her knees, exposing her long tanned legs. It also showed a small amount of her cleavage, which were easily the size of Rias' own massive mammaries.
All in all the woman that stood before them was a level of beauty that so few ever saw….though Naruto's luck seemed to allow him to be surrounded by such beauties….lucky fucker.
"The purple haired sadi…wait….oh shit," and that's when Naruto realized how much trouble he was really in. He could by no means allow Anko and Akeno to get close! It spelled nothing but disaster for him!
Coughing he continued, "The purple haired woman is Anko, the woman in blue is Mei, and the raven haired girl is…was…um….her name WAS Sauske, now Saya."
The Gremory group plus Ophis stared down the Uchiha as he had told them of his odd relationship with him…well her now but yea. They did not like the fact that said raven haired girl had tried to murder Naruto on several occasions. What didn't help was despite that Naruto admitted he was still rather close with the Sharingan user after he had beat the revenge and power hungry attitude out of him…her…damn that's confusing. What made it worse was that the former male made one hell of a sexy female.
Her long raven hair fell to her mid back with some bangs swept across her forehead, framing her pale face and accentuating her eyes was a small amount of eye liner. She wore no other make-up, leaving her flawless skin for all to see. She wore a loose blue longsleeve shirt with a fan of sorts on her back. The shirt was loose enough to expose a good amount of cleavage and even though she wasn't as busty as Kurama or Rias didn't mean she was small chested by any means. It also helped that she was rather young and could still grow even more, though her life as a kunoichi had filled out her curves in all the right places. Her body was slim, which suited her fast paced style of fighting. She wore form fitting black pants that stopped at her ankles showing her blue ninja sandals. Strapped diagonally across the small of her back was a plain looking ninjato.
Looking at her she was the perfect assassin, beautiful and seductive but deadly as well.
He then turned to the kunoichi, "The busty red head is Rias, the girl with the ribbon in her hair is Akeno, the small girl with white hair is Koneko, and Kurama probably knows the gothic loli, she's Ophis."
As Naruto introduced Ophis, Kurama began laughing hysterically, to the point where tears were coming out of her eyes. Everyone stared at her questioningly but what was even stranger was that Ophis actually looked aggravated by the demoness.
When Kurama managed to get her breath back she answered the unasked question, "The reason that Ophis is a loli right now is because she lost a bet to me a few centuries ago and I had completely forgotten about it till now."
Soon Naruto and Anko joined Kurama in her hysterical laughing, Kushina was giggling, Mei was shaking her head and laughing, and the normally stoic Saya was trying to cover up her own chuckles with her hands. Everyone knew not to bet against either Kurama or Naruto. No matter what you always lost. Even if all the odds were stacked against them and logic was on your side. Some had tried to rationalize why and the only theory that made any sort of sense was that Lady Luck wanted to get into Naruto's pants.
After everyone had regained their breath Naruto asked, "What was the bet anyways?"
"Honestly I don't remember. Something about making baka-Red nervous or something I think. Though she lost and so has had to parade around as a loli ever since." Kurama then turned a foxy grin to Ophis and said, "What's left on the bet? Another century or two right?"
Shockingly a tick mark appeared on Ophis and she ground out through gritted teeth, "Yes."
Naruto bowed at Kurama's feet, "How did you do that!? I've been trying to get a reaction from her for almost a month now!"
Kurama's grin made it clear just how much of a vixen she really was. She kneeled down to the sage's level and trailed one of her well manicured fingers underneath Naruto's chin, forcing him to gaze into her slit eyes, "And what do I get in return hmm Naru-kun?"
The amount of will power Naruto had at his beck and call was just as massive as his chakra reserves were. It was this same force of will that had won him many battles and allies. This will had toppled corrupt empires, saved countless lives, and had even brought peace to the shinobi world. That being said Naruto was the student of two perverts. He was also a seventeen year old male with some slight demonic tendencies that he got from the same vixen who was now quite obviously inviting him to do things that had toppled whole empires and civilizations. None could blame the lucky bastard for almost giving in to his baser instincts.
Almost being the keyword because right as he was about do so Kurama was sent through one of the walls of his home thanks to a chakra powered kick courtesy of one Kushina Uzumaki.
"Paws off my Naruto-kun you horny vixen!"
At that declaration Anko immediately stopped laughing at the expense of Kurama and leveled a glare at the Uzumaki princess. Before the war she would have never dreamed of challenging Kushina but thanks to Naruto killing off Orochimaru/Kabuto and then releasing her from the curse seal's hold she had been able to return to training without worrying about any side-effects. She was by no means an S-rank like Saya but she could now give Kakashi a run for his money. She also knew that Kushina hadn't yet managed to regain all the strength and power that had earned her the moniker of Chishio no Benihime (Crimson Princess of Blood).
"Oi the hell do you mean YOUR Naruto-kun? Pretty sure he ain't into incest!"
Naruto merely coughed and blushed at that. He had to admit that under different circumstances he would have jumped at the chance to be with a beauty like his mother. He could see why his father had fallen for her.
Before any could answer Kurama came running back into the house where she returned the favor to Kushina, sending the redhead through another wall.
"They're not related anymore! Naru-kun's bloodline has messed with his body so much that I doubt he could even be related to his younger self anymore!"
Naruto again blushed at this.
Kushina appeared in front of Kurama ready to pummel the demoness but both were interrupted by a certain Uchiha's appearance. She leveled a Sharingan enhanced glare at both of them before she backhanded the two of them back through the holes they had made. She then spat out, "Both of you are kidding yourselves. He deserves someone closer to his age. Besides between the two of us we can rebuild both the Uchiha and Uzumaki clans."
Saya soon joined Kushina and Kurama thanks to Anko using the Sen'eijashu to grab her ankles and toss her harshly through a wall.
"Pft you're nowhere near old enough to give him the time I could," Anko boasted winking at Naruto.
Mei then slammed an open palm into Anko's back, sending her through another wall as well, "True but I think I have more to offer him, don't you think Uzumaki-kun?" When said this she put her arms under her impressive bust, accentuating them even more.
She was then treated to Akeno's lightning energy coursing through her body.
The girls who had made their way back into the house both glared and gazed at the Gremory group in anger and curiousity. As far as they knew these girls were just some weak sluts trying to get their man.
Naruto smacked his fist into his palm, "Right forgot to tell you girls that they're Devils!" He then sweatdropped when he felt the kunoichi begin preparing their chakra for use, Kurama calling upon her youki, and the Gremory group taking battle stances.
I may be a knucklehead but I'm not a complete dumbass with a death wish. No way in hell am I getting in between these girls.
Naruto then spun on his foot and began walking to his bedroom. He then called out, "Bedrooms are upstairs! There's also a training area in the backyard. Don't kill each other!"
All the girls kept a battle ready stance and a glare leveled at the others present, only nodding slightly to show that they had heard him.
Hope they don't destroy my house. Would be troublesome to have to make enough clones to rebuild it…
AN: And that is it! Hope you guys liked the longer chapter though I can't promise that all of the chapters from here on out will be just as long or have so much happening, but they will be more detailed, and have more to them. From here on out things happen!
I've not much else to say so review, follow, favorite, and all that other good shit!
Peace Out!
