Chapter 9:
Duel on the Bridge
Between
Heaven and Earth!
Part 1
Naruto could say the week since the former Decepticon leader had respondents world of the living due in no small part from the Shinigami himself, was very hectic. The first two day seemed fine until one day and roughly 20 miles west of Konoha a enormous Spire had basically grew over night it had caused quite the panic. Before the transformer-turned-human had stated that was the new city Kaon-Eo the capital of the new Decepticon Empire.
While around the spire was for civilians and normal business, the spire itself the 'Spiral of Peace' was not open to the public or any form of power beside Naruto and Megatron.
And until a few days ago many had thought it to be peaceful, but lord Megatron had show it was anything but peaceful. As there had been many attempts to infiltrate the spire and none of the had been successful. Megatron had show at many of the meeting of ninjas both male and female with blank masks, during meetings with Tsunade and the council; all with out heir bodies attached.
-flashback-
The doors the netting room had been knocked off their hinges, the one responsible for this was carring a bloody burlap sack. His face twisted in rage as the ANBU were standing very nervously behind the old warlord.
"Tsunade Senju, i believe you could help me with the contents of what is in the bag i carry." Megatron said in a way that was both mocking and threating, which he later emptied the contents on to the floor while some still had thier masks on, others did not, and had shown the looks of terror on their faces. But what stood out was the headbands. "I believe i had said the entry to the Spire was not permitted, as per our deal with us lending aid should you need of it."
"Please lord megatron, i have not -" was all the busty Hokage could get out before being interrupted.
"SILENCE! i had humored these attempts be caused it had amused me for a time, but after seeing countless failures until just recently." The white haired man said as he turned and gave 'come here' gesture. Only to have a man with a bag over his head. "This one was the most creative... and by far the most insulting."
Pulling of the bag revealed blood stained blond hair, icy blue eyes, and three whisker markings on each cheak. The collection of gasps and amused looks from both civilian and shinobi sides of the council had shown.
"Naruto!?" Tsunade gasped out in fear as the one person responsible for her become hokage, the one person she saw as a little brother or son was now before her beaten and bloody.
"i may be an old man, Tsunade Senju. But by no means am i a merciful man." Megatron said before cutting the boy's head clean off with his dark starsaber. With a collection of protests from the shinobi council and Tsunade herself, and grand cheers from the civilian council as they watch the head of the blond fall and roll down the steps to the center of the room. "Darthimus come on out, you have given your hokage quite the scare."
Stepping out from around the corner hidden by the door frame naruto was wearing his Sith mask. they could almost hear his dark grin as he spoke.
"You just know how to ruin a good prank, my Lord." Naruto sais as he walked to his Lord's side, but giving a disgusted look to the fake copy of himself lay in headlessly on the floor. "Though did you really of to cut off his head. I know he was spy, but damn it was good looking copy, if i do say so myself... save for the fact he doesn't have the branding mark of the Decepticons on him."
"Once again, my Apprentice. You continued to astound me." The warlord said with a dry chuckle. "But i wish to lets these fools know, i am not to be crossed."
Sharing a grunt of confirmation from his personal prime, as he turned his attention back to the council.
"from now on, should any shinobi or kunoinchi, with exception of Darthimus: ever Attempt to infiltrate the spire again all of Konoha will be reduced to a smoking crater." naruto couldn't help but let out a chilling snicker as he watched many of the council from both side pale as they had seen Megatron demonstrated the power of 'His' (Naruto's) flag ship the 'REDEMPTION' as it had turned a 2 mile radius into a crater of smoke and glass. So the threat was very real. "Since i am finished with my complaint, i will retire for the rest of the day. Oh, before i forget."
With the raise of his arm the whole council watched as a sound of thunder was heard and a body of a similar shinobi with a blank ANBU mask with the kanji for NE fell to the ground with a large hole in his chest where his heart should have been. And the narrowing od his crimson eyes on the man with the 'X' shaped scar on his chin.
"let this be a warring from an old Warlord to WarHawk, i dont take prisoners." Said the silver haired man as he left the room.
"Everyone is dismissed save for the Elder Council and Naruto." Tsunade said as she massaged her temples to avoid an on coming headache, but a hush snickering from the blond made the effort fruitless.
"Now, i will address You, Naruto." Tsunade stress out this sentience the most as Naruto had yet to remove the mask he wore. "First, i would like to know why you have yet to tell us why you former teachers are coming to Konoha, and second, why is it that you are dressed the way you are."
"simple, i dont know for the first one, i thought after the trail i had taken it would be the last i would see them, and if Master Revan is coming i would like to look my best in his people's ceremonial robes. Thus my Sith mask to show i am a Sith Lord amount his people." Naruto said with honesty... as far as they cared tell.
"So you have say amoung these... Sith?" Asked the elderly Woman curiously.
"Sort of, amoung the Sith there are Ranks and rules to follow." Naruto said as he as gave a salute with his right fist restitng over his heart and his left arm curled behind his back.
"The Sith is sworn to valor.
Their hearts knows only virtue.
Their blades defends the helpless.
Their might upholds the weak.
Their words speaks only truth.
Their wrath undoes the wicked,
For we are SITH!"
"This is the Sith Creed, the rules to follow. We are sworn to do what is right. Even if it means being labeled as a villain. As many have before. But those with evil in their hearts will be slayen by the blade of justice." Naruto said looking to the hokage, while casting a dark look to the older shinobi. "So i would suggest, when master Revan makes his appearance. Use the same tone you would use for the Daiymao, for he has killed others for thier disrespect. and his prior apprentice had his jaw cut off by the sword with a less than respectful behavior."
The blond said as he remembered the tale of Darth Malak, and how he was close to share the same fate.
Tsunade was satisfied with the boy's answer she turned her attention to Danzo.
"Danzo, i know you are a retired shinobi, but as of now should yiu ever be caught trying to get into that spire again. I will let Megatron kill you on the spot with out the aid of Konoha at your back." the busty blond said as she glared at the older man, who only scoffs at the warning. "Danzo, i am warning you as your Hokage. "if what naruto here says is true, than you have better watch your mouth and behavior or I'll be the one taking your jaw from your skull."
Glaring at the last of the Senju, Danzo's grip on his cane almost caused his hand to bleed.
"If that is what you wish." He said before he turned to leave.
"Old and disrespectful, what's next; he has to wear a diaper and winds up shitting himself during a meeting?" Naruto said as Danzo reached the door only hear gritting of teeth at the boy's out burst. "I thought he would at least acknowledge that -you- are the Hokage. not him."
To the Tsunade it would seem naruto was just speaking out loud like the idiot he use to be, but to Danzo it was a bait trap thst play both to his pride of being person of his standingand shame of not being chosen as the Hokage.
Narutl could feel the ice like daggers being thrown his way by the look in Danzo's eyes.
'What the matter you old fuck? Cant stand not having your weapon under your own heel?' Came an almost scary thought in Danzo's mind as he glared at the blond menace. 'How is being a cripple bitch, you Sharingan stealing pussy?'
If Danzo wasn't so sure that this was just a wild day-mare gone a stray, he would guess the blond was sending mental messages to him some how.
'Better correct yourself Danzo-yowai (weak danzo or Danzo Weakling), she is watching you.'
"I am sorry, i ment to say as you command... Tsunade-sama" danzo could almost feel himself die a little saying that to her.
"Your apology is acknowledged, you may leave." Tsunade said as she looked to naruto who wore the cat-ate-the-canary grin on his face. Once Danzo had left naruto's grin never left.
Once Danzo was gone from sight and well beyond the rang of hearing, she could only look at the face of her fellow blond, who was tryinf not to bust a gut while holding in his laughter.
"Alright what so funny?"
"The mind maybe the most complex, but it is easily tricks and fooled." Was her answer as naruto took his leave though the window.
-end flashback.-
sitting on a bench near one of many parks in the village, naruto turned his gaze to the Spire, he found the place strangely soothing when ever he had visited. He could see some of Scourge's sweeps and Aero-Drones circling both konoha and the spire for bandit or other threats for civilian or shinobi that maybe around the area.
Thinking back to the day after the meeting Sakura and himself had meet their new teammate and team leader, a chunin named 'Sai', and a jonin and former ANBU Yamato. Both of which to the Decepticon and sith lord felt out of place, while Yamato seemed easier to vet along with, Sai felt hallow, Like how the jedi order seemed to be like from how his master describe them. But he could almost smell the blood on the boys hands.
Looking over to the sky and feeling out with the force, witnessed another vision...
-vision glimpses 1-
A man donning a heavy cloak, his right arm was entirely made from metal that glowed a dark purple, beneath the hooded cloak a dark red eye seemed to pulsate with the same energy as the arm, while the other had a sulfuric yellow tint. Behind him naruto could see legions of robotic soldiers; the Predicons, the Vehicons, Cycle-drones, Tank-drones, Aero-Drones, and a series of unknown drones he had never seen before as beside the man stood an orange rustic drone.
And before him, the armies of several nations standing reactor war, all being lead by a dark haired man, he knew all to well.
"Joyous Query: what is your command... Master?"
"Zudyti anim wisa."
"Jubilant Statement: I will with the up most prejudice, Master."
-vision glimpses 2-
"lord Kûts-wa(death king), you honour my mortal soul." a robed man said as he stood before the shinigami, beside him where two men bound by ropes and seals, one was Jiraiya of the Sennin, and the other was Minato Namikaze. Both glared at the hooded man. "I wish to make a deal."
"Speak mortal and i shall decide if it is a worthy trade." The death god said as he leaned in from the dark thorn he sat on.
"Simple both of these foolish souls, who tried to lead a prophecy in their favor to lead the world beneath their feet. In exchange for the other have of the Kyuubi's power." The man said only for the men behind him to shout at him.
"No, that is not an equal trade, boy." The god sneared.
"Even with the souls of Obito Uchiha, Madara Uchiha, Orochimaru, and Sasuke Uchiha?" The man said as he gave a swatting motion that cause the two men to fly forward bet the feet of the god of death. "But please, to show its in all in good faith. I give the souls of these two as a down payment."
"..." the dark god could only stare at the two before him while thinking on the options.
"And if it makes it even fairer, i will give my sword to you." The man said pulling out a blade made from Black Crystal. "The Galvatronus Blade."
"That is a fare trade." The god said before pulling out an orb of pure red chakra ans pasted it the the hooded sith. "Bewared, should you fall from the light, the -Zasa- in the chakra will corrupt your soul and kill you."
"I know... but the mind of the beast will no long be a problem."
"I see, well then .aye the force be with you young sith."
"And with you, lord Kûts-wa." The man said as he bowed and left the area as the bodies of Minato and Jiraiya started to age rapidity and turned to dust while their souls now dangled in the mouth of the personification of death's mouth.
-glimpse 3-
"Master Revan! Lord Megatron!" Yelled a young man as he witnessed the deaths of his teachers by the hands of a blond haired man holding a strange kunai. "You son of a bitch! I will kill you!"
In a blind rage the young man was shrouded in a red cloak of chakra and a storm created by the force swirled around him, he no longer looked to be a young man any more as his skin turned deathly pale, his shiny blond hair now white as snow. And his sulfuric yellow eyes now black as the endless abyss. In each hand he held a sword, one was the Galvatronus in the other his Sith lightsaber.
He no longer followed his master's or his Lord's teachings he had became Berserk. Fighting for the sake of fighting, to feel the life of his foe slowly bleed out as he extinguish the fire of his enemy's life.
"to hell with all of you, konoha will burn for it's sins. And you will die know in thst it was i, your very own son. The one you had cast into the world of being hated and abused, that will burn konoha to the ground. My armies will slay every man woman and child. All because of your blighten stupidity." The dark infused teen said as he attacked over and over with each swing of his blade causes untold amounts of damage, where the lightsaber burned through any object, Galvatronus cleaved massive waves of dark energy that sliced through everything else that the lightsaber or the blade of Galvatronus could not reach. The boy continues his assault only to ask the murderer of his teachers, with an insane grin and laugh. "Hahaha! Are you proud of your son now, father!? Hahaha!"
-final vision-
The world was at peace, his foes slayen, his lord and master both standing by his throne on the mighty war ship, beside him, his precious queen holding in her arms a little bundle wrapped in blue cloth. The look of bliss, joy, and love on her face as she cooed to the object of her happiness.
"The boy, will be just like his Sire." Megatron said with a soft smile, for the first time in many, many years. Though ended it with a slight bit of humour. "Hopefully he will take after his mother."
"Agreed, one hyperactive blonde menace is enough. Having two of them i would rejoin the force." Revan said as he turned to gaze as the woman by his side, her short dark hair, with the back in two small ponytail, who had her hand placed gently on her slowly swollen stomach. But gave his own foreshadowing thoughts. "Though... if my child to be was anything like myself growing up i fear for the world."
"Hehe, just think if the those two became friends." Said a young woman with blue skin and two tentacles forming form her head, to everyone there felt something something cold run down their spines.
"Master, i felt a truly strong disturbance in the force." darthimus said to his master, but looked to his child.
"Yes my Apprentice, and it was frightening."
-end of visions-
Finding himself on his knees after feeling the force visions come and go, Naruto had strongly clung to his last vision... the child... his son... their son...
"Temari..." was all naruto said before Sakura came bolting around the corner looking for him. "Hey, what up?"
"Baka! We have a mission lets go!"
"Hai, hai."
-six hours later-
Naruto was walking behind his teammates, his eyes wondered as did his mind. But his senses never did.
"If you wish to ask something, just say it." Naruto sneared as he turned a sulfur eye to the one giving him glances every so often.
"My apologies, but i wish to know." The pale skin boy with black hair and eyes, his name was Sai. "Why do respect this Megatron, person more so than the Hokage. I mean you are a konoha shinobi, shouldn't you put more respect to the Hokage or konoha than this man?"
"It's simple, i am no long a leaf ninja. when i took part in the jonin exam in Iwa, i renounced my ties to the leaf." Naruto said as he slowly placed a hand on his lightsaber, since reaching for his Galvatronus was out of the question. "Besides, Tsunade had already sign the papers for my resignation. As to why i respect my lord Megatron so much is because unlike the leaf and all those in it, he had taught me everything he knew, as did my master Darth Revan. To me they have more than just my respect, they have my loyalty. Lord Megatron had named me as his successor, should he die all Decepticons will be lead by me."
"Then why did you bother to return?"
"simple... i still have a promise to keep and once i am done with that i will leave and join the masters at the spire... that is if master revan is already there... i hope not at least." Naruto stated, but trailed off at the end.
"you seem to fear this Revan why?"
"j'us nayir nairi ri harja iw natura diâ kûts." Blond said as he shuddered.
"...?"
"It means, fear the core of life and death. Master Revan is considered to be that life force of his people as well as the death of it. So to fear him is wise, to respect him is genius." Was Naruto's words of wisdom, as he continued his way to meet with Sasori's spy. But he couldn't help but shake a feeling something was coming coming.
.-.
miles away a dark portal had opened in the sky as a large ship slowly existed. It was smaller than the 'Redemption' as it was roughly the size of small house and was round at the end.
On the side of the ship was a name.
'EBON HAWK'
"Joyful statement: we have Arrived at our destination, Master. Shall i send the scouting probes to transfix the location of you new Apprentice, master?" Said a rustic orange droid as he turned its head to the man standing beside it, seeing that silence was his answer. He knew it ment set the ship down and they will search on foot. "Query: Master, this new Apprentice of yours...is he like he last meatbag?"
"You shall see, for yourself HK." Was all the man said as he turned to leave. "Girls, we are leaving."
With a three hooded women, followed closely behind their leader. The moment the landing hach opened four loud booms of thunder shook the entirety of the ship.
"stressful statement: i wish they dont do that, it messes with the ships stabilizers. Now i have to recalibrate the instruments. Come along you little pain in the aft droid." Said the humanoid droid to the small quadra-peddle wheeled droid. Only tonhear a high whistle and beeps. "Rude Retort: Well scrap you too.
-bridge-
Naruto felt something was wrong... something was very wrong. But he could place it.
'Hmm it seems something has blocked my connection to the force. This is not good.' Naruto thought to himself as Yamato had disguised himself as Sasori's scorpion puppet. "this will end in failure."
As naruto saw the Spy walk out on the Bridge, he felt a twist in the gut. Things went from feeling discomfort to down right horrible.
"Shit."
-end-
