Author's Notes: Glad to see the introduction of the Reds and Blues as Hunters got some great reception. I'm going to enjoy using them myself. You won't be seeing them much, but they will be support characters, and will appear whenever it's necessary.

This may be my last update for November, as I will have school stuff to do like a 3-5 page paper and a 9-nine paper to write; and finals to prepare for. I may add another update, but it depends if I have the time, so don't hold your breath. As for December, prepare for a lot of updates.

-Review Responses

GreyMan19 – No, Rin's appearance is similar to Shikniful's drawing of Rin. And thanks for giving me the idea of making Team Blood Gulch a first response to unique cases.

VarKaim – That's my plan. And I'm going to do something special with Gilgamesh.

seventhharmony – Bayonetta? I don't know. Depends. Maybe in the future.

hollowichigo12 – What can I say? Even though the Naruto world exist within Remnant in this story, I wanted to do something different in respect to Monty. The story Naruto the Huntsmen also inspired me. For the woman, yeah, she blinked behind her mask, and I also noticed the siren. Reminded me of Date A Live when the Spatial Quakes appear.

Mr. Fallen – Beowulf has light-based abilities. It's Cerberus you're talking about.

Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto, RWBY, or the other crossovers that'll appear, including any other crossovers that might appear.

Chapter 04: Welcome to the Jungle


(Emerald Forest)

"Helloooooooo? Is anyone out there? Helloooo?"

Yang was walking around, looking for everyone that may be her new partner. When she was launched, she traveled further into the forest thanks to her Ember Celica, and was quite a ways from Ruby, and possibly Naruto as well. While she would love to be Ruby's partner, she was serious about her being someone else's partner that would break her out of her shell.

She could only hope that she didn't run into with Weiss, who was proving Naruto's story about her true with every world that came out of her mouth.

But while it's cruel that she didn't want to be Ruby's partner, she would rather be Naruto's partner. Besides with her trying to corner Naruto so they could "do the deed", they were both kind of similar in personalities, and both worked together like a well-oiled machine. But her greatest wish is that somehow, someway, all three of them would be on the same team together along with someone else that would work well with them and balance out their personalities, like the stoic and quiet Blake.

In another words, Yang's preferred arrangement would be her and Naruto as partners with Ruby and Blake finding each other and becoming partners. Then they would form a team of herself, Naruto, Ruby, and Blake.

However, she was prepared for the possibility of that not happening, and had the sinking suspicion that her ideal team setup was a bust.

"I'm getting bored here!" she shouted before hearing some rustling in the bushes behind her and turned around, "Is someone there?"

She went to the bushes to take a peek.

"Naruto? Ruby? Is that you?" she asked before hearing a low, inhuman growl, and looked up to find the source, "Nope!"

She dodge rolled to the side as a large Bear Grimm called an Ursa charged out of the bushes to take a bite out of her. Yang righted herself and activated her Ember Celica Shot Gauntlets before sensing another Ursa who flanked her from behind. She backflipped over it as its fellow Ursa charged at her, only to get blasted back by a fiery punch. The second Ursa made another run at Yang, but she countered by ducking under its swipe and delivered several machine gun-style punch before finishing up with a kick to send the Grimm back.

"You guys wouldn't happen to have seen a girl in a red hood, would you? Or a guy with blonde hair like mine with a big ass sword on in back?" she asked, only to receive a couple growls in response, "You know, you could just say "no", right?"

One of the Ursa took a couple of swipes at her, but Yang backflipped out of the way and laughed.

"Geeeez, you two couldn't hit the broad side of a ba-" Yang started to say tauntingly when a single strand of her golden blonde hair falls in front of her face and lands on the ground, "You..."

Her shook with anger as she closed her eyes and opened them to reveal red eyes, making the Ursai look at each other in confusion.

"YOU FUCKING MONSTERS!" she screamed as an inferno enveloped her as she charged forward, "PHOENIX BARRAGE!"

She targets the first Ursa and delivers a devastating combo of fire-infused melee blows before unleashing a powerful punch that sent the offending Ursa through several trees that set them on fire. The other Ursa runs over, but was stopped cold at Yang's killing intent as a burning tree falls into the ground behind her, giving off an intimidating image.

"What, bitch?! You want some, too?!" she yelled as stood her ground and prepared to give the remaining Ursa a beating of a lifetime.

The Ursa reared back and prepared to strike…when a whirling noise is heard at the same time, followed by a "thunk", making the Ursa freeze. The Ursa whines before falling down a second later to reveal Blake Belladonna with her Gambol Shroud in Kusarigama Mode in the Bear Grimm's back, making eye contact with Yang.

Her eyes returned to normal and panted in exhaustion while Blake recalls her weapon back to her, sheathing it on her back, and smirked at her new partner.

What she didn't expect as Yang coming towards her and lunging at her for a hug.

"Blakey!" Yang squealed.

"Gah! Let go of me, you fiend!" Blake shrieked, her arms and leg flailing.


(Emerald Forest, Hell Gate)

Naruto finally arrived in a large clearing to spot the ominous Hell Gate, and noticed a large green crack in it.

"Looks like the boss demon is out and about…" he noted and looked around to see large, glowing red seeds, "These are Chimera Eggs, freshly laid…which means…"

Naruto closed his eyes, feeling his primary element, the wind, and his opened his eyes and turned to see a giant serpent flying around the perimeter, shooting out Chimera Eggs that were going to hatch soon like the ones around him.

After grumbling and flicking his wrist, Naruto sped around and gathered the Chimera Eggs in one spot before jumped back away from the pile with an egg in hand. Throwing it up, he reared back and kicked the egg into the pile. The eggs then flew into the forest and bounced around the trees as an egg the giant serpent shot at Naruto, who activated Trickster into Combat Mode and kicked it directly at the serpent along with the rest of the eggs that headed toward the serpent.

This caught the serpent's attention as its mouth opened up, revealing a female plant-like humanoid with an upper-half as the eggs impacted her face one by one.

"The hell- Argh! Who the hell are you?! Another Sparda?!" she roared as she got close.

"Name's Naruto Uzumaki Namikaze, Devil Hunter and Huntsman-in-training. And you must be Echidna the She-Viper. Didn't you learn your lesson the last time you invaded the Demon World? Guess you want to make it 0-3 since you're back." Naruto said before jumping to avoid the demoness' tail whip and took a lazy seat on a tree branch.

"Your scent is the same as the other two! So you're the new Descendant of Sparda? You have the same blood in your veins as Dante, my killer!"

"You mean Uncle Dante. Don't worry, for he's in Makai with his wives Trish and Lady, enjoying their retirement alongside the others, so you have me to deal with."

"Instead I do. Something tells me that your blood will be better flowing through the veins of my children."

"Sorry She-Viper, but you're not my type. I better my girls with a lower-half with a nice set of legs and an ass." Naruto countered while making gagging noises, causing multiple tickmarks to appear on Echidna's head as he continued, "And you, you have none, which makes me question how you manage to get dates with the fellas in Makai in the first place. How do you reproduce by the way? Oh wait, don't answer that. I'm sure that mouth of yours no matter how disgusting it is does the trick, which means that you're a primary source for a guy's frustration, right?"

"Enough of your jokes, half-breed!" Echidna shrieked as she charged at Naruto in her serpent form, "You shall pay my losses by your family so I can have my revenge!"

Naruto grinned as he changed his Red Queen to Battle Mode, "Come them. Uncle Dante may have killed you anti-climatically, but let's see what kind of Devil Arm you'll make after I turn your ass into fertilizer!"

Echidna screeched and flew towards a Naruto, who gave off a fanged grin and swung Red Queen at her.


(Emerald Forest, Ruby and Weiss' predicament)

After escaping the enclosed place, Ruby brought Weiss to a small clearing where the trees won't get in the way as the Beowolves caught up with them. While Ruby dealt with the Beowolves effortlessly, Weiss was having a difficult time with them.

She deflected a swipe from a Beowolf with her Multi Action Dust Rapier Myrtenaster, but got pushed back in a circle of prowling Beowolves.

"Remember your training, Weiss." Weiss thought as she went through her dueling motions, "Head up, shoulders back, right foot forward…not that forward! Slow your breathing, wait for the right time to strike, and… NOW!"

Weiss dashed forward with the Fire Dust set in Myrtenaster and targeted the Beowolf that attacked her, just when Ruby suddenly appeared out of nowhere.

"Mirage Moon!" she shouted and sliced through the Beowolf with her speed.

However her sudden appearance and defeat of the Beowolf startled Weiss as she yelled out and accidently swung Myrtenaster in a random direction and created a line of fire that set a tree on fire that traveled to other trees and set them ablaze.

"What the-?" Ruby started to say, distracted by the fire, but quickly defended against a Beowolf's attack that knocked her back into Weiss, "Gah! Watch it, will you?!"

"Excuse me! You attacked out of turn! I could have killed you!" Weiss snapped at her with a bit of concern.

"You'll have to try a lot harder than that, princess..." Ruby muttered as she rolled her eyes.

The two stood back-to-back as the pack of Beowolves growled around them. Ruby then flared her killing intent, a trick she learned from Naruto, as she reloaded Crescent Rose at the same time a burning time fell near her. Weiss shivered at the killing intent flared by Ruby, wondering what it was, but the burning tree reminded her of the dire situation she and her new partner was in.

"We have to go!" Weiss said, reaching out for Ruby's arm, but wasn't in time as Ruby used the recoil of her Crescent Rose to rocket towards the Grimm, "Ruby, you dolt!"

By the time Weiss took five steps, Ruby appeared next to her in a flash after bounding off the trees slashing the Beowolves, and sheathed Crescent Rose on her back, just as all the Beowolves fell to the ground in bloody pieces. Ruby then grabbed Weiss around her waist and sped out of there before the fire could engulf them, stopping a safe ways from the small forest fire.

"You stupid dolt! We could've gotten killed!" Weiss screeched as she pushed herself away from Ruby's grip when they landed, "If you had exercised even the slightest amount of caution with the placement of your strikes, I wouldn't have set the forest on fire!"

"If you have enough energy to rant about me saving both our butts, then I suggest we get a move on before all the relics are gone." Ruby told her bluntly and walked off.

"Since when have you've gotten so smart all of a sudden?" Weiss asked as she caught up to Ruby, "And we're going the wrong way!"

"We're not going the wrong way." Ruby said while ignoring the first question and looking up at the sky to view the sun's position.

"We are if you're looking up at the sky like that!"

"She's got money for brains, this one…" Ruby thought to herself before stopping, "Okay then, Princess. You can lead us since you believe you know where the temple is."

"For once, you're being smart, unlike those other times." Weiss said and went a different direction before bumping Ruby's shoulder with her own as she pass, "Come now."

As Weiss walked off in a completely different direction, Ruby channeled all of her inner rage at her partner's attitude into her unfolded Crescent Rose and slices a group of trees down. They fell down behind her as she refolded and sheathed it back.

"What I wouldn't give to turn back time…"


(Emerald Forest, Hell Gate Area)

(Cue Battle Theme: The Viper (Echidna Battle) from Devil May Cry 4)

Echidna flew around the perimeter screaming as Naruto rode on her body with Red Queen stabbed into her scales, trying to get him off. She did try and fire her Chimera Eggs at Naruto, only for him to shoot them into pieces with Thorn and Petal.

Naruto then jumped when he nearly hit a tree and used this Devil Bringer to pull himself back onto Echidna. He ran down her body, leapt off it onto a tree, and bounded off it to deliver a Rider Kick that sent her back into the clearing.

"I will never lose to a Sparda again! I will kill you!" Echidna screeched as her upper body appeared.

Naruto used his Devil Bringer to latch onto her body and pulled himself close to slash her several times before executing a Roulette Spin spinning slash that forced her to return to her serpent form. She flew around him, expecting him to escape her vortex, but he just stood there and yawned, moving his head to the side when her spiked tail nearly whipped him in the face. She then came down to chomp on him and succeed, but he exploded in a burst of flames, making her cry out in pain as the real Naruto appeared from behind a tree after using a Fire Style: Exploding Shadow Clone Substitution Jutsu. Rushing forward, he delivered a Rider Kick that sent her into another tree.

"A minute in and already this is too easy. Are you even trying, dearie?" Naruto asked in the usual Sparda-style taunting manner.

Echidna shrieked in rage and took to the air, her tail splitting into several tentacles before planting herself in the ground like a spider, with an egg sac above Naruto, birthing Chimera Eggs.

"Sorry, but I already had scrambled eggs for breakfast." Naruto said, spinning Red Queen like a helicopter to take out the eggs, "And your's look unappetizing."

Echidna was about to taunt him, thinking that her babies would do the trick, but then felt extreme pain as Naruto ruthlessly attacked her egg sac like a speed bag with a barrage of punches enhanced by his Devil Bringer followed up by with a revved up Red Queen that sliced through hers sac like a hot knife through butter that forced her out of her spider form.

"My children! You bastard!" Echidna screamed in pain.

"Sorry about that dearie, but having you around is more than enough." Naruto replied as he dug in his ear with his normal hand, "Oops!"

He used Hiraishin to dodge Echidna's lunge and followed her with his eyes as she went into the edge of the battlefield, weaving in and out of trees. Naruto whipped out Thorn and Petal and fired, riddling her with bullets until she came out to try and eat him, but recoiled with Naruto blasted her in the mouth in Thorn and Petal's double-barreled Revolver Magnum Mode. She attempted this maneuver twice, yet got the same result, until she popped out and used her hair as a whip to tie him up. Naruto barely dodged the attack and fired the spectral arm of his Devil Bringer into her face, stunning her.

She held her head in pain, allowing Naruto leap up, stab her in her chest with Red Queen, and proceed to rev it with his normal hand and continuously punch her in the face with his Devil Bringer.

As Echidna's body racked in pain, she had the feeling of déjà vu, as Naruto was using the same strategies as Nero and Dante, yet this Sparda was combining and adding on to them.

And that really sucked for her, until she had enough when Naruto pulled out Red Queen and slashed her upwards with High Roller upwards slash before landing on the ground and planting the now smoking Red Queen in the ground since it was too hot to hold.

One of the weaknesses of Red Queen (until Naruto can improve it) is that while it can use specific Dust to heat the blade allowing it to slice through objects with ease, the function only lasts for three minutes until it's too hot to hold, and requires for it to cooldown for about 30 seconds until it can be usable again. Naruto didn't mind, but prefers not to have his hand welded onto the handle of Red Queen.

"PLAYTIME'S OVER!"

Small tendrils came out of Echidna's wound and wrapped around her upper body that triggered her Devil Trigger-like state, with her eyes turning yellow and her body gaining a yellow Aura-like glow.

"DIE!"

"And I thought Yang's and Ruby's periods were scary…" Naruto mused, pointing Red Queen at the charging Echidna and shot her with Thorn and Petal's Magnum Revolver Mode.

(Battle theme fade out)


(Meanwhile, on the other side of the Emerald Forest)

Pyrrha Nikos and Jaune Arc are making their way through Emerald Forest when Jaune heard a far off noise and turns to look.

"Did you hear that?" he asked as Pyrrha looked around.

"Gunfire. It seems some of our comrades have encountered the enemy."

They continue onwards with Jaune not paying attention as Pyrrha brushed away a branch that accidently smacked Jaune right in the face, flooring him hilariously.

"Jaune?! I'm sorry!" Pyrrha said as Jaune laughed it off with a hint of frustration.

"It's okay. Just a scratch!" Jaune assured her as she noticed the gash on his cheek.

"Why didn't you activate your Aura?" she questioned as he got up.

"Huh?"

"Your Aura." Pyrrha repeated, thinking that he didn't hear the first time.

"Gesundheit." Jaune replied, with multiple question marks appearing above Pyrrha for a moment.

"Uh, Jaune, do you... know what Aura is?" Pyrrha asked, frowning at the blonde Casanova-wannabe.

"Psch, of course I do!" Jaune replied instantly while avoiding eye contact with his partner, "I know exactly what Aura is. Do you know what Aura is?"

Pyrrha appeared insulted for a little bit with tickmark on her head before shaking them off and smiled. While finding it odd that Jaune didn't know the common knowledge that up-and-coming Hunters shoulder know before coming to a school like Beacon, she decided to explain anyway.


(Hell Gate)

(Cue Battle Theme: The Viper (Echidna Battle) from Devil May Cry 4)

Naruto rolled out of away of an empowered Echidna's lunge, but failed to notice her tail, which knocked him into a tree. Echidna charged again with her mouth opened to devour him, but Naruto substituted himself with a Lava Style: Exploding Shadow Clone Substitution Jutsu that filled Echidna's mouth with lava the moment Echidna closed her mouth on it. She howled and threw up the lava as Naruto reappeared in the middle of the field while putting on sunglasses.

"Aura is the manifestation of our soul. It bears our burdens and shields our hearts. Have you ever felt you were being watched without knowing that someone was there?"

"Uh... yeah."

Echidna shrieked and shot up hordes of Chimera Eggs that quickly hatched into Chimeras that surrounded Naruto, who closed his eyes to concentrate as a flow of crimson energy outlined his body.

"With practice, our Aura can be our shield. Everyone has it, even animals."

"What about monsters?"

In an explosion of energy, Naruto's Aura flared and formed into a form similar to that of a Version 1 Bijuu Chakra Cloak with long rabbit-like ears and three long fox tails, and his pupils turning into slits and his Devil Bringer turning from blue to an orange-red color. Naruto's eyes flashed as he used his Devil Bringer to snatch the now cooled off Red Queen back to him and twirling it to the ground, the force burning Echidna and her Chimera.

"No. Unlike the demons from the Demon World, the creatures of Grimm we fight lack a soul, and are the manifestation of anonymity. They are the darkness, and we are the light."

Giving a fanged grin, Naruto crouched down wielding Red Queen in a reverse grip, and disappeared in a blur, bounding off the trees in the blink of an eye and slicing through the Chimera with ease.

"Right, that's why we fight them!"

Echidna let out a Sonic Roar that blew Naruto back. He retaliated by using his Devil Bringer to latch onto her and reeled himself in to deliver a devastating dropkick to Echidna that planted her to the ground. Naruto then jumped off her and began to rain an endless barrage of stomps and kicks augmented by his Trickster Shot Greaves. Echidna screamed, turning into her serpent form to break Naruto's combo. Flying up, Echidna reverted back to her humanoid form and planted her split tails completely into the ground unlike her spider form, assuming a lotus position on the ground.

"It's not about why; it's about knowing. Understanding dark and light helps us manifest our Aura. Everyone has some of both. By baring your soul outward as a force, you can deflect harm. All of our tools and equipment are conduits for Aura. You protect yourself and your soul when fighting."

Naruto rushed forward and threw Red Queen at Echidna with the spectral arm of his Devil Bringer, at the same time her split tails came up from the ground to skewer him.

"It's like a force field!"

"Yes, if you want to look at it that way."

The tails broke upon contact with Naruto's Aura as Red Queen embedded itself into Echidna's chest. Naruto reeled himself in onto her petal and revved Red Queen, making the Greater Demon wail in pain as a blue sphere of spiraling energy formed in his demonic arm.

"Time to say buh-bye, plant lady." Naruto said and drilled the sphere into her body, "Devil Bringer Rasengan!"

Echiha screeched from the extreme pain caused by Red Queen's revving and the demonic Rasengan and was forced to use the last bit of her energy as a burst to knock him off her, failing but managing out to cancel his Devil Bringer Rasengan. She then tugged herself out of the ground and took to the air to get him to fall, but Naruto dispelled his Rasengan and tried to latch onto her with his Devil Bringer. She countered by hair whipping him away, but growled when she felt his Devil Bringer on the snake-part of her body.

"If you want to be taken for a ride that badly, then let me take you for a spin!" she said as she flew higher into the middle of the air.

"Oh~, crap~!" Naruto yelled as he held on for dear life.

(Battle music fade out)


(Meanwhile, in another area of Emerald Forest)

Ling Rin stood atop of a pair of King Taijitu snake Grimm she has just slain. Her weapons, a pair of SMGs with axe-like blade attachments named StormFlower, slid under her sleeves as she brushed herself off until she heard a strange, animal-like nose above her. She looked up in time to see Nora hanging upside-down from a tree and kiss her on the cheek before their eyes met.

"I still don't think that's what a sloth sounds like or does." Rin said, giggling at her friend's antics as Nora poked her on the nose.

"Boop!"


(Beacon Cliff)

"As expected, the odd one out is Naruto. The last pair has been formed, sir." Glynda informed Ozpin as they checked the progress of the first-year students, "Nora Valkyrie and Ling Rin. Poor girl... I can't possibly imagine those two getting along. Still, she and Naruto are probably better off than Miss Nikos."

"Mmmm…"

"I don't care what his transcripts say. That Jaune fellow is not ready for this level of combat. It's even more odd that I can't find any record of him attending a school for Hunters before coming here to Beacon." Glynda noted before deactivating her tablet scroll, "I guess we'll find out soon enough. At their current pace, they should reach the temple within just a few minutes. Speaking of which, what did you use as relics this year? … Professor Ozpin?"

"…"

Ozpin didn't answered as he watched live footage of a bored Ruby sitting cross-legged on the grass picking it and yawning while her partner Weiss paces around her in random directions.


(Emerald Forest, Ruby and Weiss)

"It's definitely this way… I mean... this way! It's definitely this way… Alright, it's official: We passed it."

"Is it really too hard to just admit that you are no idea where we're taking us?" a completely annoyed and slightly ticked off Ruby asked as she kipped up.

"Because I know exactly where we're going! We're going... to... the forest temple!" Weiss replied a bit lamely.

Ruby facepalmed herself and growled in frustration.

"Oh, stop it! You don't know where we are, either!"

This time, Ruby started punching herself on her head as her frustration increased.

"Hitting yourself is not helping!"

"Well, at least I'm not pretending like I know everything, and exactly knew where we're going before you hijacked it!"

"What's that suppose to mean?!"

"It means that you bossing me around is getting us nowhere!"

"I'm not bossy! Don't say things like that!"

"Then let's get back on track! The reason I was looking up at the sky was because I was using it as a compass to see if we're heading the right direction! The temple's to the north, remember?!"

"What?! How does that-"

"Of course…you wouldn't know anything about that, acting like you're so perfect." Ruby said as she went to head in the right direction to the temple.

"I'm. Not. Perfect! Not yet... But I'm still leagues better than you." Weiss countered and pushed Ruby out of the way of her path.

Ruby snapped.

The next thing Weiss knew, Ruby was in front of her with Crscent Rose unfolded. Before she could react, Ruby slashed down at her vertically in the blink of an eye, tearing the top of her Hunter outfit down the middle. Weiss screamed as she grabbed her clothes to keep them from falling apart and sank to the ground as Ruby put away Crescent Rose. Weiss was about to verbally lash out at Ruby, but faltered when Ruby glared at her with vicious eyes.

"Ever since I was nearly killed by a Beowolf when I was six-years-old, I trained to become a Huntress. You? I heard it took a kidnapping to discover that you could fight and trained afterwards. You don't even know me at all, but between the two of us, you're the one that's weak and pathetic, and I'm the one who's leagues better than you since we're miles apart in experience. If you want to pass this initiation, then pick yourself up and follow me, or you can continue to sit there and whine about your clothing like a sniveling little rich bitch!"

With that, Ruby turned on her heel and stormed off while putting on her headphones, ignoring Weiss' insults and shouting for her to come back.


(Emerald Forest, The Temple)

"Think this is it?" Yang asked as she and her partner stepped out of the bushes and into a clearing that revealed the ruins of circular stone temple with platforms holding several black and gold objects.

Blake gave Yang a silent, incredulous look before giving her a small smile and headed down the hill with Yang following until they reached the temple.

"Chess pieces?" Blake wondered upon closer inspection of the objects.

"Some of them are missing. Looks like we weren't the first ones here." Yang noted.

"Well, I guess we should pick one." Blake said with Yang nodding and looking around before approaching one of the relics.

"Hmmmm..." Yang eyes a golden knight chess piece and picks it up, "How about a cute little pony?"

"Sure." Blake agreed and picked up a second golden knight piece.

"That wasn't so hard!" Yang said cheerfully as they met in the center of the temple.

"Well, it's not like this place is very difficult to find." Blake agreed as they shared a smile until they heard a loud, girly scream in the distance.

"Some girl is in trouble!" Yang exclaimed as she turned towards the direction of the scream, "Blake, did you hear that?"

Blake didn't answer as she noticed something in the sky.


(Meanwhile, at the Hell Gate Perimeter)

Several people in different color armor were finishing up their demon hunting when they heard the screamed in the distance.

"What. Was. That?" a guy in cobalt armor asked as he failed to hit a Chimera with a sniper rifle.

"Sounds like a girl's in trouble!" his teammate in pink armor said and jumped back from a Chimera that tried to latch onto them, "Hey now!"

"Too bad it wasn't Grif. He screams like a girl in his sleep." a gruff voice came from a guy in red armor as he used his shotgun to finish off a hatching Chimera Seed.

"Oh yeah?! How would you know?!" a fat guy in orange armored countered before jumping away from a Chimera, "Waah!"

"Woah guys, let's not go there!" the aqua armored guy said as he stabbed through a a Scarecrow with an energy sword.

"Idiots." a woman in cyan armored muttered after kicked a few Chimera Seeds away, with one of them nearby hitting the team's blue armored comrade, who walked into his sixth tree because his helmet was shorting out.


(Temple)

"Blake, did you hear that?" Yang asked her partner again, "What should we do? Blake?"

She turned to see Blake's bow twitching as she pointed up where she saw Ruby was falling…

"Heads uuuuuuuup!"

And Naruto was in the sky as well, revving his blade into the chest of a screaming Echidna again as they sped towards the ground.

"Yahoo!"

END OF CHAPTER FOUR


Next time – Chapter 05: The New Rookie Nine

-The temple is the place to be, as nine of the first year students gather to collect their relics and take on the creatures of darkness. Can they work together to take them on, and what is the artifact Ozpin left for Naruto at the temple? Which team will Naruto find himself on as the odd man out?

After-chapter note: Okay, I'll consider Glynda being in Naruto's harem, though I still trying to figure out how the hell to do that. Maybe I'll consider Emerald too, but no promises. Penny, I don't know, and I'm on the fence with Coco. It all depends on future events of RWBY.


Naruto 698 reaction: I'm a lemon. I am not happy, but then again, I'm not at all surprised. The chapter started out awesome, before it started to blow with each page turned. Naruto x Sasuke is pretty much confirmed; Naruto x Sakura, Naruto x Hinata, and Sasuke x Sakura be damned. I knew the blonde idiot would "confess" his love for Sasuke. I swear I get confused whether Naruto is a show about awesome ninjas or a high school soap opera. Maybe it's a good thing that the series' coming to an end, because I don't know how much more of this lovefest I can stomach. And I'm sure both Naruto and Sasuke will need a "hand" after that epic fight they had. On an unbiased standpoint, it's a great heart-to-heart chapter for the near-end of the Naruto manga.

RWBY V01E12 reaction: Asskickings here. Jaw-dropping reveals there! Mass Guesses for everyone! Volume 3 cannot get here sooner! Here's my highlights: RWBY did well to hold out until the others teams besides CRNL got there. Team CFVY completely one-upped Team JNPR in terms of awesomeness. Still, I really wanted to see what Velvet's weapon could do. Oh well. But man, Coco. Coco. She shot up the list of the most awesome ladies in RWBY. She went DMC4 Pandora on those Grimm! So that day was save and Roman is caught, or is he?

I believe the whole Grimm incident was designed to relive Ozpin of security and hand it to Ironwood, who I'm really suspicious of (because he somehow reminds me of Naruto's Danzo). Also, I know Roman got caught on purpose, and it's related to what Cinder did on the computers during the Dance Dance Infiltration episode. Since everyone went right for her and her crew, I bet she uploaded a virus that will allow control over those new robots, and Roman's there to control them. As for the White Fang, I firmly believe that Adam is the leader of White Fang, unless proven otherwise, but I believe he is.

The next volume will no doubt be a tournament arc like the Dark Tournament arc in Yu Yu Hakusho before Cinder's plan comes to fruition, and I can't say this enough, but it's be awesome! I hope we get more Neo though.

Naruto 699/700 reaction: It's the end of an era, or is it? Overall, the series was all kinds of awesome, but at times totally removed from reality. Sasuke monologues while he gets off scot-free, Kakashi's the new Hokage, and Naruto gets a new arm. What more can we get? Why a timeskip where the kids are grown up, the adults get old (and fat in Anko's case; not cool by the way), and the new generation has kids without the slightest bit of romance in the series along with finally…glaring plotholes. But there's a Part 3 "miniseries" coming out that I hope they'll be addressed. But respite the nonexistence of romance, count me an extremely happy NaruHina fan that Naruto and Hinata got together in the end. I mean seriously, did some of you really think that Naruto and Sakura would get together in the end? It was pretty well established that Sakura loved Sasuke, but I digress. I started Naruto in 2005, and it's been a hell of a nine year run. Thank you, Kishimoto-sensei for a great and awesome story…even if you're a troll sometimes. Looking forward to The Last movie and the "mini-series", as well as other future works.
