How about using the Creation of All Things technique to solidify Nia's existence in their world, either before or after the conflict with the Anti-Spirals? ~

Naruto smiled to himself during the whole song as he cheered people up with the fast paced song, several dancing as he sang. He was glad to help out because it was starting to weigh on everyone that they were getting closer to their target, to the spiral king. He felt a pair of arms wrap around him and turned to see Yoko looking up at him with a smile and he smiled back before he leaned down, capturing her lips in a loving kiss that she gratefully returned, bringing their relationship out in the open just like that.

Chapter 6: WAR ON TEPLIN!
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Naruto and the others passed the great sea without much trouble, well trouble for him. The gunmen that attacked the Dai-gurren the first time attacked again and was quickly dispatched by Naruto again with a drill shaped rasengan, cracking its hull while under the water drowning the person within. Now they were marching towards tepplin.
"You think we will win Naruto?"
Naruto chuckled as he watched the horizon for any danger, Yoko leaning against him and absentmindedly playing with the end of her hair.
'Maybe red haired lovers run in the family.' Naruto thought while mentally shrugging.
"No."
Yoko looked up at Naruto a little puzzled and very troubled thinking that their greatest power was doubting their ability.
"I KNOW we will win." Naruto said confidently as he stood up. His eyes locked onto something flying in the sky and his eyes narrowed.
"Seems we have one last battle to take care of." Naruto said and summoned his battle avatar around him then disappeared, making the Dai-gurren rock a bit from the power of the jump. Naruto appeared level with the enemy up ahead, created a clone and made it launch him at full speed towards the giant flying base.
"RASENGAN!" Naruto yelled as a rasengan formed around his avatar's hand, as big as gurren and it smashed into the giant base, exploding and sending people everywhere.
Naruto landed inside the hole he created as his eyes scanned the area. There was some odd orbs that he was sure Leroy would love to get his hands on. Right then he heard crazed laughter and turned to see a gunmen right behind him, obviously built for flight and he grinned, the person inside there obviously loved this shipped and went mad when Naruto destroyed part of it. To test his theory Naruto reached over, grabbed a pole and snapped it in half making the gunmen twitch a little and the laughter increase.
"You Son of a BITCH! You will die for this! YOU WILL DIE AT THE HANDS OF CYTOMANDER!" Naruto watched as the man/beast/robot thing charge towards him at blinding speeds, any normal person would have a hard time tracking him. Naruto wasn't normal. He stuck out his hand and a drill formed at the end, the gunmen managed to swerve out of the way at the last moment but not without gaining a large cut through the arm. The beast hissed and looked Naruto straight in the eye and gasped.
"Y-you have the same eyes as the spiral king."
"No shit dumbass." Naruto blasted the thing out of the ship, through several walls of course. It plummeted over the edge to the ground. Naruto expected he would get back up so he made a clone and it started spinning its hands around his outstretched one. Soon a giant disk of raw power formed and he walked to the edge, seeing the general start to right himself. He threw the disk and watched as it collided with the beastman and, in a giant explosion, was ripped to pieces and whatever was left made a crater in the ground below.
"Rasenshuriken." Naruto said lightly before turning around and started to dismantle/destroy the ship but trying to keep those strange orbs intact. After a bit Naruto lept out of the ship and fell towards the ground. He wasn't scared of dying, he had done this kind of thing before. Just not in this universe. Naruto grinned as suddenly wind ripped around him, and he started slowing down.
The air shimmered above him and the clouds started getting sucked in to what looked like an invisible parachute. Naruto finally slowed down and tumbled onto the ground and laid there for a bit before bursting out laughing and smiling like an idiot as he saw the ship slowly 'sinking' if you could call it that. Moving towards the earth as it fell. Naruto yawned a bit as he watched it and glanced off in the distance to see the giant mecha, the Dai-Gurren, headed towards him.
"Guess they saw the explosions." Naruto shrugged a bit as he kept on the ground, chuckled a bit thinking of how he should play dead but then realized he already did die and that wouldn't be a good idea. Naruto sighed a bit and turned again after he heard an explosion. He saw the ship finally crash and smirked a bit before turning back to the approaching mecha. He stood up and started walking towards Dai-gurren with a lazy gait, almost like he was on a stroll.
Finally he arrived at the towering mecha, jumped high into the air and landed directly on the ship's deck. Right into a slap from Yoko who looked at Naruto with a glare.
"WHY DID YOU RUN OFF LIKE THAT!"
"Cause." Naruto said as he rubbed his cheek.
"YOU HAD ME WORR-" Naruto sighed and gently took her in his arms, held her tight and kissed her deeply. She struggled a bit, not wanting to lose her anger just yet so she could chew him out but she couldn't. She melted into his arms and closed her eyes, returning the kiss. After a bit they separated and she looked at him with half lidded eyes.
"You do know this doesn't change anything right?"
Naruto chuckled and put a hand on her cheek and she mewled a little as she leaned her head into his hand.
"Sure, sure, then why are you putty in my hands?" Naruto asked and chuckled just to receive a huff from Yoko and she stomped off.
"HEY I WAS JUST KIDDING!"
"UH HUH! SUUURREEE!" Naruto pouted and traveled after her like a wounded puppy.
"Till we reach teplin you're not getting any hugs, kisses, or even a touch of my hand!" Naruto collapsed and tears sprang from his eyes.
"I WILL NEVER SURVIVE!"
Naruto curled up into a ball and someone sat beside him. He looked up and saw Kamina looking down at him with an actual look of sympathy.
"I wish you luck, I hope you survive."
"So do I... so do I" Naruto said and whimpered as he got up and followed after Yoko in a mixture of a wounded puppy and a defeated man. He found her in the mess hall, talking with Nia and he bowed at her feet.
"Please spare me!"
"Hmmm... let me think about it... NO" Yoko said and giggled followed by Nia, the pair had been really close and understood each other to a level that most women felt when they got to know each other, though Yoko would completely deny all thoughts of a friendship when someone 'accused' her of it.
"Please there has to be something I can do."
"Well... grovel a little then I MIGHT consider it." She said with a wicked grin and Naruto lowered his head.
'Troublesome women, wish I could just go look at the clouds.' Naruto thought, mostly thinking of what his old friend said when he was dating Ino.
"Oh great goddess of life, you hold this poor mortals soul in your hands. Please forgive him of what he has done, his heart beats for you with the universe that surrounds you. Both tremble at your unmeasurable beauty and grace. Your fiery mane spans the stars as your eyes gleam with passion. Please have mercy on this poor human." Naruto said as he bowed repeatedly on his knees, truth be told he was having fun but if she wanted him to grovel he would do the best he could. Yoko herself was blushing quite heavily. Sure he had romanced her before but not like that, with such words.
Yoko sighed after a bit and touched him on the head. He looked up at her with a smile then took her hand and kissed the back of it.
"What is milady's desire?"
Yoko giggled a little and had him stand up before giving him a quick kiss.
"Go get ready, we are almost to teplin." Naruto nodded and lept off to go train before the battle began.
XXXX
Inside Teplin.
XXXX
In a burst of gravity the last of the training dummies were destroyed as the spiral king used his powers to level the field. He had been training hard, very hard since he heard a shinobi came here. He flexed his fingers as he walked towards a towel on the other side of the field. This new shinobi would have him to deal with, but something told him this was no ordinary shinobi. From the reports of his spy he was much like his father.
The spiral king looked up in the mirror as he toweled off the sweat from his body, staring into his own ringed eyes. The ringed eyes his father bestowed upon him, the rinnegan. The king smiled a little as he remembered that day, his father, the sage of the six paths, blessed his blood with these sacred eyes. He frowned as he remembered a week after he obtained them that blasted Uchiha tried to take them from him, he ended up here in this universe.
"I wonder how father is doing..."
With that thought he got dressed and went to his throne room, knowing that this was the last day he would rule.
XXXX
Back with the others
XXXX
Naruto stood out on the deck as he watched something on the horizon. His eyes narrowed a little as it became clearer, it looked like a large city in the sky in the shape of a spiral.
"Looks like we reached teplin everyone!" He heard Kamina cry out, his fist raised in the air. Naruto couldn't help but laugh at his enthusiasm. He smiled at Yoko who smiled back then turned back to her rifle, fine tuning it for the last stand. Naruto turned back on the horizon as he thought about the things that had happened lately. After the quick defeat of Cytomancer they came across a large army of other villagers who started stealing gunmen as well, how they knew where to go was beyond him, as well as how they even knew about them.
Of course they were rather popular in the villages they had passed but he didn't think people could leave and tell other villages, no matter the extra help was very... helpful. Naruto watched the city with a trained eye, it would take normal people a good half an hour with an up close scan to know how to get in. it took a shinobi a good minute or two, it took a kage level shinobi about fifteen to thirty seconds to know, it took Naruto about ten seconds before he knew what the thing actually was.
"Everyone, the city of teplin is nothing more than hanging baskets hanging from a very large gunmen." Naruto said making everyone gasp. No one dared doubt him when he was serious, his eyes picked up signs that no one could think of finding.
"How do you know?"
"I can see slight joints through city gaps, the feet and part of the face."
Naruto glanced at the ground and squinted a bit.
"Now what the hell is that?"
Everyone followed his gaze to see a large dome like gunmen moving quite fast across the ground. When it reached under the city it started spinning and Naruto's eyes widened and then shook his head.
"We won't make it in time, its a shield generator of some sort probably with powerful shield plates protecting it." As soon as he finished speaking a large purpleish pinkish shield rose from the dome and surrounded the city and Naruto sighed a bit.
'Ready Kurama? Time to show them who you are.'
'Its about time I stretched my legs a little.' Naruto laughed and sat down cross legged. He entered his mindscape and looked up at the towering fox, truth be told they were friends now. But the fox would never admit to it... if it didn't eat you before it answered. Everyone watched Naruto with curiosity till he started glowing and he grinned before jumping off of the floating Dai-gurren. Everyone watched him fall until... a large golden fox appeared under him, easily twice the size of the Dai-gurren.
"Hey Kurama feel like playing ball?"
"With pleasure"
The Gurren brigade, who were scared, fascinated and down right curious how a giant fox came from nowhere, watched as its nine flowing tails wrapped around till the tips were near the beasts mouth and suddenly a ball started to form, a large purple mass appearing floating above its head. With a flick of its tail it fired the massive ball of energy and it headed straight for teplin. Naruto curved the ball so it aimed a little lower and it hit with full force into the dome gunmen.
"Why did you change the Direction? It would have taken out that puny shield."
"Maybe so but we want to fight the spiral king, not have him burnt to a crisp."
For miles all the people could see was white as the tailed beast ball went off, the explosion sending many gunmen flying this way and that. A few minutes passed before the dust cleared and they saw that half of the city was nothing but dust, a large crater had formed under it the size of a nuclear blast. Kurama walked casually towards the falling city, most of its flying devices destroyed in the attack. With only a few to keep it steady enough so it wouldn't tip it fell towards the earth, knocked out of the heavens by one of the strongest attacks it had ever seen in all of its time.
In another giant explosion the city landed in the crater, probably thousands killed if not more, Naruto doubted any were human. But it still got to him, everything had soul.
"Thanks for the help Kurama, mind shrinking down in case I need you later?"
The fox grunted and shrunk down to pet size and hid in Naruto's jacket. He ran towards the large head with what looked like an upside down top on... top of the head. It took him a few minutes with his impressive speed but he jumped up from the destroyed buildings and landed just outside. He sent out a punch destroying the glass surrounding the room. As the star like shards fell to the ground Naruto jumped in and took a look around at his surroundings. It looked like your average throne room except... different.
It was dark, light cascaded in from the hole he made. Large spirals hang from the ceiling and one jutted from the floor, part of it cut out to hold someone, that someone was sitting in it right now.
"Well done, well done. It has taken you awhile to get here has it not young man? Or should I call you young shinobi?" Naruto just watched the man who had his eyes closed and he pulled out his fathers kunai, he was still mastering it but it could help him later on.
"Spiral king I have come here to kill you and fre-"
"Sure sure, we will get to that in a moment but I'm sure you are very curious of who I am and how I got here." The man said and Naruto nodded after a bit and the man stood up.
"Here they call me Jerome, but back in my world, your world, our world, I was called Shentora, Shentora Uzumaki. I had recently gained these eyes when someone from that retched little Uchiha clan, one I thought my brother, attacked me wanting its power for himself. We clashed and opened a portal, we both fell in and when we arrived here he disappeared. I can only guess he is in league with a powerful enemy called the anti-spirals. Of course now its your turn to explain yourself."
"My name is Naruto Uzumaki Namikaze, much like you after I obtained these eyes my friend, my rival, one I considered a brother, an Uchiha, tried to kill me to obtain more power. I have no idea what happened to him for I pushed him out of the way of the portal before I came here."
"Ah, so its the same for you, tell me how is the sage of the six paths doing?"
Naruto tilted his head a little and laughed a bit irking Shentora a little.
"Him? Hes been dead for hundreds of years."
Shentora seemed truly shocked to Naruto, he stumbled a little as he clutched his thrown.
"...how?" He finally said after several minutes and Naruto blinked.
"He died of old age, before he died he had to release the Juubi that he sealed inside of himself, sealing its body in the moon and splitting its chakra into nine pieces, each one gained a name from the one tails, the Shukaku, to the nine tails, the most fearsome Kyuubi no kitsune, shouldn't you know this already?"
"...No, I had no idea... I have been here for hundreds of years."
Naruto nodded and sighed a bit, gulping hoping he wasn't here that long.
"The world has changed more than you know, great villages have risen up in five countries. Held by two leaders, one over the actual nation and one over the capital."
"What has happened to the Uzumaki clan? The last person I saw of it was my daughter." Naruto gulped a little and scratched his head.
"Your looking at the entirety of the clan."
"You mean your the last?"
"A mad man tried to destroy the Uzumaki clan, a few escaped before it was possible. The only ones other than me that I know of that escaped were my mother, dead from having the kyuubi and part of her chakra ripped from her, my cousin, Nagato, who was manipulated by the mad man till I had to try and kill him myself but he died of chakra exhaustion. The last one, Karin, died in the fourth great shinobi war."
Shentora nodded and he got into a battle ready stance.
"I know for a fact that this battle, one of us will die without of doubt. So lets make it a glorious one."
Naruto nodded and created a clone to go collect Nature chakra, one way or another this was going to be big and he was going to be prepared. The man raised an eyebrow but simply shrugged it off and the showdown began. They quickly dashed towards each other and their fists connected, the rest of the glass ripping apart around them as a sonic boom ripped across the area.
XXXX
With the others
XXXX
The main force had been ambushed, it seemed quite a few of the beast men army was left. Most thought that chopping off the head, the generals, would make the rest topple. Turned out they were just chopping off limbs.
'Hold on Naruto.' Yoko thought as she sniped another gunmen from the deck of the Dai-gurren, all its guns firing as fast as they could to get the beastmen. It was almost like each one they killed fifty more took its place. There had to be an end, and it seemed they were halfway there. Suddenly an explosion of glass appeared above the city as a shockwave cleared the area up there. Everyone saw flashed of yellow, black, grey and ever color inbtween when suddenly a large explosion ripped up there and started growing larger till it sucked itself in.
Everyone held there breath till suddenly a even larger explosion ripped through the air, like a disk of flames as it spread outward destroying almost all of the gunmen and a few allied ships.
"NARUTO!"
XXXX
Back to the fight. 15 minutes earlier
XXXX
Punches, kicks, slashes with knives, nothing seemed to get through to the other, it was like a graceful dance as the parried, blocked, dodged or dealt their own blows.
'It seems we were wrong to assume that he lost his edge in battle' Naruto grunted in response as Kurama talked to him via their mind link. The two combatants kicked off of each other and panted a bit and Naruto grinned.
"Want to kick it up a notch?"
The man simply stared at him a bit before he was engulfed in a grey battle avatar of the sage. Naruto quickly followed to be engulfed in his silver battle avatar and they lept at it again, their powers greatly increased as they kicked, punched, parried, black flipped, anything to get the upper hand. Naruto finally did when the man slightly over extended his fist from the last punch allowing Naruto to duck into his guard and deliver a vicious kick to the mans stomach.
Shentora gagged as he was sent flying into one of the columns, out the other side just to skid across the ground. And it began. After he got back up they were back at it, but instead of a graceful dance it was a brawl, hits were taken and thrown back, bodies flying back and forth just to meet in the center again, blood pouring from wounds as they tried to get the best of the other, rinnegan eyes staring into rinnegan eyes.
"I know your holding back, you know I'm holding back, so lets end this quick." Naruto nodded at the mans words and suddenly he was surrounded by a yellow aura as his eyes changed to match a toads. Kurama grew to full size and waited outside as he watched the battle, one things for sure if Naruto lost it wouldn't take much of himself to take out the other Uzumaki. Shentora was surrounded with black and suddenly was inside his gunmen that glowed grey as the previous avatar surrounded it. And they were at it again, yellow and black meeting grey and black. One trying to over power the other.
They were back to square one, one unable to over do the other, that is till Naruto lept back, a second power surge coming on him as his avatar faded, just to reform around him like a black glove. The markings from before faded and only a few appeared on his body, purple in color. He looked at some fallen glass and could just make out his reflection. He looked just like the sage. He turned back to the man and smiled.
"This is what your father looked like before he died."
Shentora faltered a bit then nodded with a smile appearing on his face, a face that had been smile-less since he came to this place.
"Thank you." Naruto nodded before he held out his hand and a large disk of multiple colors appeared.
"Elemental style: Maelstorm Rasengan!"
Every element known to the elemental nations was in this attack, whether bloodline or normal while he didn't have an elemental bloodline he did have the ultimate one that allowed him to control all elements, just took a little extra chakra to use the sub elements. He charged the man as the man charged his own attack, a blade of some sort formed in his hands made of clear material. The two charged towards the other and the attacks met head on.
There was an explosion, it ripped the place apart as the two jutsu struggled for power. Suddenly the rasengan broke through the attack and hit the man head on, slowly a dome formed around them and it formed outwards and the man smiled at Naruto as his body started to fall to pieces.
"Thank you Naruto, you have brought me peace."
"Your welcome Shentora-san."
"I have a warning for you, when this world reaches 1,000,000 naked apes the moon will be hells messanger." Naruto nodded and shook the mans hand before it as well disappeared. Suddenly the world became clear. It seemed peaceful but Naruto knew what was coming. He quickly grabbed what was left of the spiral king, the head.
"He was a great opponent, might as well bury whats left." He quickly ran and jumped out of the building, plummeting to the ground right as the rest of the jutsu exploded, sending him flying faster as the flames tried to catch up to him. He quickly flashed through handsigns and surrounded himself in ice. The wave hit and he grunted. When the initial impact came and went he surrounded the outside of the sphere of ice with wind and as it hit the ground it was much like a bouncy ball, allowing him to bounce and roll till he came to a stop. He cracked open the sphere and looked around at all the carnage. He laughed a bit before sitting up and dusting himself off.
"NARUTO!"
Naruto turned to see the Dai-gurren crew running towards him and he waved and laughed before running towards Yoko who was at the head of the pack. He quickly reached her, wrapped his arms around her, picked her up and twirled her around before giving her a solid kiss.
"THREE CHEERS FOR NARUTO! HIP HIP!"
"HOORAY!"
"HIP HIP!"
"HOORAY!"
"HIP HIP!"
"HOORAY!"
Naruto laughed and quickly created several clones and lifted up his fist.
"TIME TO CELEBRATE!"
All the clones quickly grabbed instruments as everyone cheered and started celebrating, drinks and food was brought from the Dai-Gurren and they began to have a party in the middle of the ruins.
'Take off, at the speed of sounds
Bright lights, colors all around
I Running, living fast... and free
got no regrets inside of me
Not looking back, not giving up, not letting go
I'm going to keep on runnin''
'I'M GONNA REACH FOR THE STARS!
Althought they look pretty far, I'm gonna find my own way.
Then take a chance all today'
The sky with star's so bright, the colors feel so right.
I've never felt like this I'll keep on runnin'
The sky with star's so bright, the color's feel so right
Just take my hand were gonna reach for the stars tonight... tonight...'
'Wake up, living day by day.
Do what I want, and I'll do it my way.
The world is flying like we all must be
Got no regrets inside of me.'
'Not looking back, not giving up, not letting go
I'm going to keep on runnin'...
I'M GONNA REACH FOR THE STARS!
Althought they look pretty far, I'm gonna find my own way.

The sky with star's so bright, the colors feel so right.
I've never felt like this I'll keep on runnin'
The sky with star's so bright, the color's feel so right
Just take my hand were gonna reach for the stars tonight... tonight...'
Everyone laughed as they danced, Naruto's fast beat music filling the air with a happy noise, not that everyone wasn't happy before about the defeat of the spiral king. It just added to the moon, Naruto sand as he danced with Yoko, doing spins flips and all sorts of moves and she giggled and tried to hang on for dear life.
'I got it in my sight, the colors feel so right.
Get my feet off the ground, I'll keep on running
Oh I can feel it now, the colors all around
Just take my hand, were gonna reach for the stars
Just take a chance, we'll do It right again
Just take my hand, we'll take a chance tonight...
Reach for the stars... tonight... tonight...'
Naruto reached down and kissed Yoko again, their love practically filling the area. Simon was blushing and rubbing his cheek, a little lipstick left over from Nia's kiss and Kamina had his hands full with the black sisters, much to their brothers dismay.
"Its finally over Naruto-kun, I love you so much."
"ya... I love you too Yoko-hime." Naruto kissed the end of her nose and she leaned into him.
'Though I highly doubt its over just yet...'

Naruto looked over Yoko's shoulder at the moon that was just peaking over the horizon and he narrowed his eyes.
'I hardly think its over...'
