This is strange...I've managed to search several of the worlds he destroyed and I am detecting approximately one survivor on each of them. On each of the worlds the survivors is Hinata Hyuga.

This does not make sense. When we scanned those worlds earlier there were no survivors. Was it possible we simply overlooked her? I know it seems unlikely but we have made mistakes in the past.

Possibly. But our mistakes have cost so many people their lives in the past. Should we really bring her into this battle? I know that we thought she could help, but what if all she does is die? I don't think I can handle watching more people die due to our meddling. After all, it was our fault that this happ-.

Be silent! It was a mistake! The Hyuga girl will be brought into this battle and that will be all. If she dies...then she dies.

You are truly heartless. I hope that you realize that.

Be silent. And let us see what transpires.

The demon clone smiled at the assembled Narutos as the twin red rasengans continued spinning in his hand. "Well...who wants to die first?" The demonic clone asked. "Don't all come at me at once." It added in a mocking voice. The Naruto wearing the black and silver cloak arrogantly walked forward and pulled a kunai knife out and spun it around on his finger.

"Your just a clone. One hit and you'll turn into smoke. I can end this right now!" He shouted as he ran at the clone who did nothing to defend itself and didn't even flinch as the alternate Naruto buried the kunai knife up to the hilt in it's stomach. The alternate Naruto's arrogance was quickly replaced by fear as the clone pulled the knife out and smiled darkly.

"My turn."

The clone brought his hand around and slammed one of the burning red rasengans directly into the alternate Naruto's stomach, sending him flying backward towards a large piece of debris which he hit with a massive amount of force. He hit the ground and didn't get up. In fact it looked as if he wasn't breathing either.

The demonic clone smiled. "Next." He called out mockingly as the assembled Narutos each looked at each other as the original Naruto stepped forward. As he walked towards the clone he couldn't help but remember, this...fallen version of himself had lost control during the fight with Pain. Which meant it was possible that this version wasn't familiar with his Nine-tails chakra mode.

Before he could even begin to think of what to do the demonic Naruto shook a finger at him back and forth. "I know what your thinking and I can tell you right now that it's not going to work. In essence, it's my chakra and I can take absorb it whenever I want. You can't use any of the Nine-tails chakra and your no match for me if we go head to head."

The two red rasengans disappeared as a larger red one took it's place in the demonic Naruto's right hand. "Even now...I'm slowly absorbing the Nine-tails chakra from each of you. I'm the strongest version of you all. I can't be stopped. Eventually, I will absorb every last bit of chakra from each and everyone of you and then I'll be able to continue gaining power from the other versions of you until I become the strongest being in existence."

The original Naruto slowly stepped forward until he was practically nose to nose with the demonic Naruto. "There's no way we can let you get away. We'll figure out a way to stop you. We're not fighting for ourselves, we're fighting for our homes! Our families! And our loved ones!"

Before the demonic Naruto could do anything, Naruto brought one of his fists up directly under the demonic Naruto's chin. The dark Naruto's head snapped back and a sharp crack was heard as the demonic clone brought it's head back down and smiled again.

"Nice try. But with my chakra I can repair any injury. I can fix broken bones in minutes. You can break my neck and I can come back. I can't die as long as I posses this body."

Naruto doubled over as the clone brought it's fist back and punched him directly in the stomach and then followed up the punch with an uppercut that sent him flying backward.

"Why keep fighting?" The demonic clone asked mockingly as he slowly advanced towards the other Narutos as the original one got to his feet. "All you can do is die."

The original Naruto pointed at him and narrowed his eyes. "Hit him! We can stop him if we work together!" He shouted as a swirling blue rasenshuriken formed in his hand as he ran at his demonic clone.

"So...it's a fight after all." The dark Naruto laughed as Shadow clones appeared behind the original Naruto and swirling blue rasengans began to form in the hands of the alternate Narutos. "This should be fun."

Naruto brought the rasenshuriken down and it was just about to slam directly into the dark clone's stomach when the clone made a quick series of hand signs and disappeared as the air around him shimmered and appeared directly behind Naruto and kicked him up into the air.

"Like it? I absorbed that technique from a version of you that became the Hokage for only a month before I destroyed his world. I wonder what techniques I'll absorb from all of you when I kill you?"

"Shut up!" Naruto shouted as he made a series of hand signs even though he felt a few of his bones shatter from the impact with the clone's kick. "Shadow clone jutsu!" He shouted and a small group of shadow clones appeared as the demonic clone made another series of hand signs as the clones and remaining alternate Narutos closed in on him.

"Jinchuuriki style: Demonic release!" The clone shouted as a small ball of red chakra appeared above the clone and it flashed once before it exploded into a massive wave that sent the alternate Narutos and the original Naruto flying backwards into various pieces of debris left over from earlier.

"Another handy technique I absorbed from one of you. That particular version of you actually put up a decent fight before he died. Granted I was a bit weaker when I fought him but still. I absorbed quite a few powerful techniques from him."

Naruto tried to get to his feet but he could barely move from the strain that the clone's final attack had put on his body.

The clone looked over the assembled Narutos and shook his head. "Not that this hasn't been fun but I think it's time you all died. Chakra to absorb and alternate versions of you to kill, you know the drill." The clone began to make a series of complex hand signs and was just about to slam his palm into the ground when a soft voice cut through the battlefield. A voice that made the clone stop dead in his tracks.

"Naruto-kun...you need to stop this...Look at what you've become."

The original Naruto looked up and his eyes widened in fear.

"Hinata!"
