As both Shinji's and Naruto's groups met up, they saw a new beast appear.

It was in a shell so its face was just one eye that looked like a Rinnegan-Sharingan hybrid. It moved along by using its large arms, it had no legs and from its back end came ten hand-tipped tails.

Naruto looked at the thing. "Looks like the villain got the box. So, that's what the ten tails looks like. I thought it would look scarier."

Shinji's eye's morphed into the Mangekyō Sharingan. "Yeah. Stay here, guy"

Shinji and Naruto then ran off from the group as Naruto entered his golden Tailed Beast Mode and Shinji subconsciously summoned Eva-01.

Shinji, now in control of Eva-01 looked over to the golden-furred Rinnegan-eyed copy of Kurama that was now Naruto. "Hey, Naruto. How about we try to end this fast with a Yin-Yang combo?"

Naruto smirked and held his hand out as it glowed with Yang chakra. "I have the Yang if you have the Yin."

Shinji put Eva-01's hand over Naruto's as the two formed a large Yin-Yang Rasengan. It glowed gold and silver with a red and purple outline and it was as proportionally as large as the Big Ball Rasengan.

Before the newly-spawned fake Ten Tails could do anything, the two drove it into its head, killing it.

Shinji looked at the dead Ten Tails. "Well, that was anti-climactic."

Naruto looked at Eva-01. "True, but the Ten Tails was only a legend for so long that he must have had no idea what it could do, let alone how to use its powers, so I believe that if he had more time to get used to the new form and figure it out, things would have been different."

Shinji just ejected himself from the plug and said, "Makes sense to me."

Eva-01 vanished as Naruto returned to normal.

Many things happened over the course of the day after this short-lived fight. One, they found boy and he went home now that it was all over.

Two, Misato found herself turned back into a 12 year old thanks to the LCL flood she was in. Karin, being a medical ninja, told her that she wouldn't get any younger and would still age normally.

Why did his mother make Misato his age? Shinji didn't know for sure, but he could guess.

Misato was happy. She could now learn to be a ninja and now her womb had been restored so she could have kids someday. A dream come true for her.

The people they saved from Orochimaru had all recovered, so they left. After all, two nights in this town held four giant monster battles.

While they were on the road, Shinji thought to himself, 'So many giant monster battles. This must be what it feels like to live in a Godzilla movie.'

Naruto looked over to see a sign that said 'Leaf village – 10 miles away.' They were almost home. He couldn't wait to see how the place had changed.

To be continued…

Jboy44: "I know the battle was short, but keep in mind that no one at this point in the Naruto timeline knows what the Ten Tails can do. The fake one had no time to figure out how to use its power, let alone how to move. Plus, what Naruto said about the fight foreshadows something that will happen later in the story."
