Yo! Sorry I took so long, I've been a bit busy iwith life. My muse recently beat me the inspiration into me (I still got the bruises) and forced me to type them. Oh, and has anyone else noticed the increasing amount of DMC/Naruto crossovers? I feel a little intimidated. (Muse ties intimidation to a stake, sets it on fire, and watches it burn) Uhhh…Nevermind. Moving on…
I'm desperately trying to stop making errors, sorry if some manage to slip by.
Pairings: I've decided to put Lucia. She will be introduced in a very interesting way (trust me when I say you most likely won't be expecting it) later on. If you have a problem with that…Have a nice bowl of STFU.
Weapons: Good news: I finally figured out a way to use Red Queen and Blue Rose(won't exactly be a gun) believably in the story. Bad news: they won't appear in story just yet. "When?" You may ask… well I could tell you but then my muse would kill us both, so you're just going to have to read and find out.
Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto or DMC. (This is made for fun and derived from boredom)
The She Viper
"Naruto watch out!"
The silver haired boy turned just in time to catch a small seed like creature out of the air with his devil bringer. The creature struggled in his grip before he mercilessly crushed the life out of it.
"Fucking Chimera Seeds!" Naruto shouted while cutting through another that jumped, trying to latch onto him. He caught a glimpse of a lizard like creature out the corner of his eye.
'An Assault!' It was about half the size of a man with armored green skin, sharp talons and teeth, and a powerful tail. The creature jumped at a downed Sakura attempting to tear her throat out. Sasuke was too busy fighting off his own Assault to help her.
Naruto used his new air trick move to appear in front of the girl with his devil bringer headed straight for the creature's face. The Assault managed to raise the shield like protrusion on its arm to take the punch, but the thick bone shield shattered under Naruto's demonic arm and it was knocked back.
Naruto's ethereal devil bringer grabbed the lizard's tail and with monstrous strength slammed it into the ground relentlessly. More Assaults were quickly emerging from the ground, jumping into the fray only to be beaten back by the half devil using their brother as a club.
Sakura came out from behind Naruto and slammed her gloved fists one of the Assaults. Its head caved in and the neck snapped sending it straight into another behind it.
Sakura then jump into the air avoiding the broken Assault thrown by Naruto. It crashed into its brothers sending them all into a tree. Sasuke's fireball then made short work of them, leaving nothing but charred husks behind.
Naruto used his human hand to point toward the dead creatures, two fingers sticking out from a closed fist with the thumb straight up. "Bang! Yippy kiya motherfuckers!"
"What's that handsign Naruto? I've never seen it before." Sakura asked, desperately trying to shake off the brain juice on her glove.
Naruto just shrugged. "Don't know, just sorta felt right. Kinda a spur of the moment thing. Hey Sasuke, if you're done barbequing, we should go. The smell alone is gonna attract attention."
Sasuke finished his jutsu and nodded. The three took to the trees in a hurry in case any enemies were nearby. Naruto took time to recollect his thoughts.
The exam had started easy enough passing up a test to filter out the idiot genin that couldn't see past a simple illusion. Naruto did have to stop Sasuke from making a scene though.
Just because Naruto may not use genjutsu sure didn't mean he couldn't. After all, he mastered the Henge to where it was nearly real and the Mikadzuki no Mai required a pretty decent grasp of genjutsu skills to fool the opponent.
Naruto had fun pestering Sasuke about how he lost to that Lee kid. The Uchiha managed to hold his own against the green spandex wearing genin, but even with the Sharingan his defenses soon crumbled under the other genin's superior strength, speed, and experience. Lee had team seven's respect though, even if he dressed a little odd.
When they found the classroom they met up with the rest of rookie nine. For some reason Kiba wouldn't stop glaring at him, Naruto thought the mutt was going to attack him right then and there.
When all the ninja wannabes started staring at them Naruto unwrapped his Devil Bringer in front of them as if daring them to do something. The sight of his devil bringer scared most into looking away, even the rookie nine were surprised at the demonic appearance of his glowing right arm.
There was that Kabuto guy that showed up. Naruto knew there was something off about that guy. 'Failed seven times my ass…and how did he manage to get info on me anyway?'
While not detailed his nin-info card still stated that his had a rare, supposedly extinct, bloodline along with advanced ninjutsu and swordsmanship skills. He could practically feel the questioning gazes of the rookie nine around him. 'I'm going to have to 'update' his info on me later while I pound his face into the ground.'
Then the paper test where they couldn't get caught cheating. That Ibiki guy acted like he was intimidating or something, maybe he was to some other genin. Naruto scoffed. 'I've see scarier things in the academy's restrooms.'
Hinata, who sat right next to him during the test, was a bit worried when he didn't write down any answers. Naruto didn't know why he cared, but to put her at ease he did a henge and kage bunshin combo. They came out as flies with no smoke to give him away. He sent them to gather answers and his paper was done in no time.
'I still wonder why she blushes so much around me. Its not my arm is it?' He stopped that train of thought before it could go any further.
After a bunch of kids wussed out of the dreaded 'finally question' they discovered there was no final question. And when Ibiki tried to congratulate them the new productor, Anko, busted through the windows to introduce herself. She was hot and Naruto enjoyed breaking up the fear she tried to put in the other genin.
Flashback
A decent amount of genin stood in front of the dark forest that loomed above them. They could hear the faint laughter and screams of demons inside. Dozens of glowing yellow eyes watched them from the shadows before disappearing back into the leaves.
"Listen up maggots this is the Forest of Death! Its full of wild animals, poisonous plants, and demons. Its also where you'll be taking the second exam so try not to die!" Anko shouted with an evil grin.
Naruto snorted. "OOOHHHH the Forest of Death! I'm so scared! Look! Trees!" All the genin around him had struggled to hide their snickers and giggles.
Naruto, reacting on instinct, caught and crushed a kunai in his devil bringer. Everything went silent around him. Anko leaned into him from behind wrapping her arms around his neck. Her large breasts pressed into his back, her nipples pressing through the fishnet shirt and form fitting armor underneath her coat. The woman's tongue snaked out and gave him a long lick on the cheek before capturing his lips with her own.
"You got balls kid." She said pulling away. Another kunai lightly pressed near his crouch. "Get cocky with me again and I might have to cut those balls off." The shock was evident on her face when she felt a pair of strong arms wrap around her waist and saw the Naruto in front of her go up in cloud of smoke. Anko had to bite back a moan as the boy's hands roamed her body.
"You're not too bad yourself babe, but you shouldn't underestimate me." Naruto said smirking.
Anko walked out of his grasp and he gave her a light smack on the ass. A faint blush appeared on her cheeks. 'Not the slut you act like huh?'
Everyone looked at him like he was crazy, the same thought going through their mind. 'Does he have a death wish?
End Flashback
Naruto's thoughts came to an abrupt halt when he realized something, or the lack of something. There were no sounds. It had gone eerily quiet. He couldn't hear any animals or demons. The hair on the back of his neck stood on end and he was instantly on high alert.
Something flew by nicking his cheek and drawing blood.
"MOVE!" He shouted.
He reached out grabbing Sasuke and Sakura and threw them to the side just as a fierce roaring wind blasted through the trees.
Sasuke and Sakura fell to the ground and could do nothing but watch as Naruto was hit dead on by the brunt of the wind and disappeared into the forest.
"Naruto!"
"Was that really necessary Orochimaru?" The disguised man asked.
"Relax Credo, I had to separate them. I want to test the Uchiha and if the half breed makes it pasted my special summon then I will test him too."
"W-w-would you require assistance by any chance Orochimaru-san?"
"No Agnus, I will test them myself."
Naruto crashed through branches and trees before finally skidding to a stop in the middle of a clearing. He got up and dusted himself off, luckily Yamato wasn't lost during his trip.
"Damnit! My coat's totaled! Trish bought this for me too!"
Yes, Naruto had just been blown through multiple trees that would have killed a normal ninja and he's angry that his coat is now in shreds. Taking what was now torn rags off and throwing them to the side he cursed again.
"That was my favorite coat. Who ever did that wind jutsu is dead."
Looking up he noticed the massive plant like creature in the form of a snake. It flew lazily in the air releasing seeds at him. "I'm really not in the mood for this."
As the seeds drew near Naruto stood his ground calmly. When they finally reached him he caught them out of the air and began juggling them. One by one he dropped the seeds and kicked them back into the forest, except the last which he casually spun on his finger.
The snake like creature stopped in the air and opened its mouth wide to reveal the flower woman inside. She watched with wide eyes as the strange scene happened before her.
Meanwhile all the seeds that had been rebounding off of seemingly random trees converged, ricocheting off each other then to a nearby tree headed straight for the plant woman. All of them flew into her face one after another.
Recovering from her daze she said the first thing that came to her mind. "Who the hell are-!"
Naruto tossed the last seed in the air, and using a sheathed Yamato, batted it into her unprepared face, interrupting her rant. He winced slightly at the 'crunch' sound that echoed through the clearing.
"And it's a Grand Slam! The crowd goes wild!" Naruto bowed mockingly to the plant woman. "Thank you, Thank you. I'll be here till I manage to get another scroll. Don't forget to tip your waitress."
"Who do you think you are?! You dare make a mockery of me?! I am Echidna The She-Viper and new queen of this forest!"
"Oh yea? Well I'm Uzumaki Naruto, resident demon killer and badass. I do believe I outrank you, in fact, I own you and this forest."
"Uzumaki Naruto…the Descendant of Sparda? She sniffed the air catching Naruto's scent. "That scent is the same. You have the same blood running through your veins as the one called Dante, my imprisoner!"
"Yea, so I've heard. Same blood as Sparda, Dante, and some guy named Vergil. Geez, what do I have to do to get a rep of my own? I kick demon ass too!"
"Your blood would make a powerful seed." The plant woman said with a calculating look in her eyes. If she were to absorb his power she could break the bonds Dante use to bind her to the snake contract.
"Look, if your asking for a date, then I'm gonna have to turn you down." Ignoring her eye twitching in annoyance he continued.
"I'm sure you'd make some plant guy really happy," Far away a certain member of Akatsuki sneezed rather violently. "But you're not really my type. I got nothing against the petal look, it suits you, and I like boobs as much as next guy. Well the next guy besides Sasuke, I mean with all those girls chasing after him you think he would have revived his clan by now."
"Your jesting is becoming increasingly annoying half breed." The woman hissed out.
Naruto was still ignoring the growing tick marks on her forehead. "Its not you, its me…on second though it is you. But I like my woman with a lower half. You know, tone legs and a nice ass. By the way while were on this subject, just how the hell would you please a guy? Oh wait, nevermind, that big mouth of yours is probably good for something."
"ENOUGH! I will devour you, you insolent little half breed!" The petals closed around her as she shifted to her snake form flying at Naruto, mouth open, fully intent on eating him.
Naruto stood there with a foxy grin on his face. "Sorry, I told you I'm not interested. Ifrit!"
Yamato was absorbed into his devil bringer to be replaced by his Ifrit gauntlets. As Echidna attacked Naruto jumped to the side while grabbing onto her scaly hide with his devil bringer. In an attempt to knock him off she took a winding path through the dense forest swerving to avoid trees and snapping any branches the got in her way.
Naruto stood on the end of her tail, dodging the branches that threatened to knock him off with ease. He broke into a run along her tail jumping, ducking, and weaving out of harms way.
Echidna, feeling his advance, shot straight up into the air. Still feeling his advance as she climbed further upward she whipped her tail viciously. Even though utilizing the tree climbing exercise Naruto was still thrown off and barely avoided getting skewered by the spiked spines on the end of her tail.
'Shit! I'm kinda high up!' Naruto moved to use Kage Bunshin but nothing happened. 'Fuck! I forgot I can't use jutsu with Ifrit active.'
Naruto had found out that while Ifrit increased his physical power and speed to new levels it still had weaknesses and flaws. Unlike Yamato, which allowed him to use jutsu while active, Ifrit only allowed for fire enhanced taijutsu nothing else. Ifrit also took away all the moves he created with Yamato. It changed Naruto's style of fighting drastically.
'This better work!' Naruto charged his devil bringer with chakra. The larger ethereal version of his devil bringer came to life taking the form of a massive clawed hand with Ifrit's burning blue flames.
As the ground rushed up to meet him the half devil reared his arm back and with a shout punched the ground beneath him. The ground underneath cracked, stopping his decent. Naruto landed on his feet in the burning crater.
He looked up to see the she viper circling above him lazily. The snake's head once again opened wide to reveal the woman inside.
"HA! Your pathetic gloves do you no good-" A massive fireball flew at her. It missed but the fire passed so close it singed the side of her face.
Naruto stood in the crater with his still smoking arm pointed toward her. "What? How did I miss that big mouth of yours? Its such a huge target!"
Echidna had finally had enough. Letting out a shriek of rage her whole body began to glow brightly. She began circling above Naruto not even bothering to change into her serpentine form.
"Come to me my children!" She release hundreds of seeds while Assaults and Scarecrows came out of the forestry around them. The seeds hatched and jumped onto the nearest creature. The Chimera Seed's roots wrapped around the demons and dug past skin. The seeds sprouted flowers showing they became one with their hosts.
"Fuuuucccckkkkkk" Naruto said looking around. All of the now Chimera enhanced Assaults and Scarecrows circled Naruto covering every inch of the ground. Their eyes all focused on him, waiting.
One of the more restless Assaults lunged.
Naruto dodged and stomped on the assault's tail, as it screeched in pain his ethereal devil bringer hand wrapped around its neck and tore it from the body. His other hand shot out a ball of blue flames burning a group to his left to a crisp.
"Who's next?' He asked, throwing the head, with spine still attached, to the side and the fresh corpse under his boot still bleeding.
The creatures backed down for a moment before realizing there vast numbers and dove at Naruto.
Ifrit lashed out furiously leaving flames in its wake. One gauntlet speared into a Scarecrow's chest and shot out of its back, the other slammed down on an Assault's head, flattening it into the ground. Spinning to dislodge the scarecrow, Naruto used to momentum to deliver a flaming haymaker that crashing into a multiple demons.
An Assault jumped on his back driving its talons deep and biting into his shoulder, he grabbed the creature's tail with his ethereal devil bringer and tore in from his back, the deep cuts healing as soon as it was removed. He smashed the Assault into the demons around him, crushing the advancing demons to keep from being overwhelmed.
The blood pounded in his ears and his heart raced as he fought. Vines covered with thorns tore the skin from his body where ever they hit, massive scythes would nick him while teeth and claw dug into him.
Naruto movements were slowing and it was taking more hits to kill the demons around him. His healing factor was slowly giving out on him, leaving cuts that leaked blood. The demons, sensing the kill was near, went into a frenzy. They trampled and killed their own trying to get to the silver haired demon hunter.
Echidna watch as wave after wave attacked the Descendant of Sparda. He must have killed hundreds and yet he didn't even dent their numbers. For every one he killed four or five would come out of the forest around them.
Creatures were being thrown back in dozens by his fists or the flames that followed them only to be trampled and kill by the other demons out for a kill. She let out a sickening smile as the horde finally covered him, the flames dieing out under the dome of demon numbers.
Sasuke emptied his stomach on the ground. To his side Sakura was doing no better. She had been reduced to a trembling mess with tears streaming from her unfocused eyes.
"How disappointing, I expected more." The mystery woman said.
'Her killing intent is unreal! There's no way she is genin level!' Sasuke saw her reach for kunai in slow motion.
'Come on move!' His legs didn't respond. 'Move!' In his panicked state he could faintly remember Kakashi's teachings.
"Killing intent can be thrown off in a variety of ways. There is experience, willpower, anger, even pain…"
Two kunai flew from the woman's hand, aimed for their heads.
'That's it!' His Sharingan flared and managed to grab a kunai from his pouch with his shaky hands.
The woman's kunai pierced a tree, the targets vanishing into the trees.
"Hmmm, maybe this won't be so boring after all." The disguised Orochimaru chuckled to himself.
Sasuke pulled the kunai from his leg and quickly wrapped the cut with spare bandages. He then focus on Sakura's still trembling form in next to him. He gave her a few light pats on the cheek.
"Sakura! Sakura, snap out of it!" Her eyes widened and then focused on him.
"Sas-" He covered her mouth with his hand and put his finger over his lips with the other. She nodded her understanding and he released her. They both took deep breaths to calm their racing hearts.
Sssssssss…
"Do you hear that?" Sakura asked Sasuke quietly.
Sasuke's eyes widened. He grabbed Sakura and jumped off the branch just in time to avoid the massive snake that snapped its mouth shut where they had been.
As soon as they landed Sasuke let Sakura go and flew threw handseals. "Goukakyu no Jutsu!"
The snake screeched as the fireball engulfed it. It writhed in pain trying to put out the fire but it was useless. It let out a final hiss before it fell and went limp, its body still smoking.
Both genin let out a sigh of relief as the creature died.
"We need to regroup with Naruto, we'll need his help to fight off that woman. She can't be a genin." Sasuke said.
The two turned to walk away but froze when they heard the cracking of skin. The voice that followed sent a shiver down their spines.
"tsk, tsk, tsk. Prey should never let down their guard. And your teammate should joining us shortly, that is, if he is still alive."
Sasuke and Sakura turned around to see the mystery woman rise out of the snake's charred carcass. Sasuke took a deep, calming breath and got into a loose stance while Sakura slowly followed suit.
The woman looked shocked. "Aren't you going to run?"
"You'd only catch us." Sasuke answered calmly.
She laughed. "So the prey has been backed into a corner and decided to make their last stand."
"Who said its our last stand? We're just going to show you we're not worth the trouble." Sakura said.
"Sakura, follow my lead!" Sasuke's Sharingan flared to life, two tomoe in each eye spinning wildly, as he charged with Sakura following.
The only sound that greeted Echidna was the excited chatter of her children as they fought one another for a bite. She turned away letting the glow of her devil trigger recede.
BUM BUM…
She turned back, fear dominating her features. 'Impossible, he can't be that powerful!'
The dome of demons that covered Naruto exploded in blue flames. The closest demons were incinerated instantly, the unlucky ones were squirming on the ground with bubbling blisters all over their bodies. The devil that was Naruto's Ifrit form stood in the crater of fire.
Controlled Naruto's Ifrit devil trigger looked stronger than the last time it was used. It looked larger and with more powerful blue flames covering his body. The fire devil beat his chest sending flames out around him. Naruto roared to the heavens and unleashed a torrent of flames from his mouth. The demons around backed away from the devil's intense heat in fear.
With a scream Echidna's devil trigger glow came back. She shifted to her serpentine form and charged the fire devil.
Naruto met Echidna's charge head on. Her serpentine head aimed to chomp down on him but the fire demon twisted out the way giving a powerful punch that broke the plant devil's jaw. Echidna recovered quickly and wrapped her tail around Naruto while she snapped her jaw back into place to heal.
Naruto struggled while the viper tried to squeeze the life out of him, fire consumed his being as he broke free. Echidna screeched in pain lashing at Naruto with her burning tail. He caught the tail, missing the barbs at the end by mere inches.
The force behind the tail would have flattened a normal human, ninja or not, but Naruto's devil trigger form didn't even move from the impact.
Naruto dug his hoofed feet into the ground and sank his clawed hands into Echidna's scaly hide. Using all his strength the beast pulled hard and began to spin, using her to hit all the demons that had not yet retreated. He kept it up for a few rotations and let her go flying into a rather sturdy tree. Echidna's body sank to the ground and lost the glow of her devil trigger.
"I will have your blood. I will be released from my servitude!" She forced her battered and burning body back up and shot toward him once more.
Naruto dug his hooves into the ground and waited. She crashed into him with all her might. The fire devil's hooves sank into the ground as he was forced back, leaving deep trenches. He stood in place holding her jaws open with his clawed hands. Naruto slammed her to the ground while snapping her jaws open to force her humanlike form out.
Echidna was done. All her power had been used up calling out her minions and sustaining her devil trigger during battle. She felt two massive hands grab hold of her lithe arms. She looked up to Naruto's Ifrit form with half lidded eyes. The last thing she saw was the blue fire building in the fire devil's mouth and his burning red eyes.
Naruto blasted a concentrated stream of blue fire point blank in her face, taking her head off. The massive body went limp before going up in a cloud of smoke. Naruto let out a roar of victory while beating his chest.
The devil's body burned down back to his human form. Naruto fell to his hands and knees taking deep gulps of air. His devil bringer absorbed Ifrit and Yamato clattered on the ground next to him.
"I own you...and this forest...bitch." Naruto he said between breaths. Looking down he groaned and sighed in annoyance.
"First my coat now my pants, someone is defiantly gonna pay." Naruto's black pants were now charred shorts.
'Dante? Just how powerful is he to seal Berial and imprison Echidna? Wonder what else he did?' Naruto sighed and got up. 'Whatever, he needs to clean up after himself, I'm tired of doing it for him.'
He caught a glimpse of something out the corner of his eye. 'No it can't be.'
"Mother?" As soon as he saw her, she jumped off.
Pain and exhaustion were forgotten as Naruto raced after her.
End Chapter 9.
Done.
Before anyone asks no Naruto cannot even do fire jutsu while Ifrit is active. I had to find a balance for Ifrit and Yamato to make them useful in different situations. Ifrit is a brute force weapon that increases speed and power at the cost of no jutsu. Yamato will be the most balanced of Naruto's weapons, allowing both ranged and close up attacks and the ability to utilize jutsu. The 'Jack of all Trades' you could call it, good for any situation but great for none.
And yes I think the first exam is boring so I skipped it.
Next Chapter Preview:
Kyrie?
Kyrie stood across from him, a look of mysery on her face. The broadsword through his chest kept Naruto pinned against the tree. She hadn't changed at all, she was exactly as he remembered her. The only thing different was the formfitting black dress she now wore.
"But how...I saw...you died in my arms..." The shock of seeing her kept Naruto from pulling the sword from his chest.
His teammates were both out cold a few feet away. The rain poured soaking them all. Thunder roared and lightning flashed above them.
Tears clouded Naruto's vision as Kyrie raised her hand for the finishing blow.
"Why?" Naruto asked.
Tears were now flowing freely from Kyrie's eyes as well. Lightning flashed and thunder boomed around them as her hand lashed out and blood flew.
