Mnarutodbz walks into the room and he said "Hello readers. It has been a long time since I updated but it's finally here…the new chapter of Naruto doesn't cry! My apologies to all of you. I've been extremely busy with work and my own story and I am trying to write the chapters faster but I don't have much time for it."
Blitz enters the room and he said "Hey dude…we have to talk!" Mnarutodbz glared at Blitz and he asked "About what?" Blitz pointed at Mnarutodbz and he said "I want more screen time! Mnarutodbz shrugged and he said "You can forget about that. You are a comical relieve character. You are good at gathering information and running away but that's all. But if you really want more screen time I can give you some alone time with Vergil and Kushina…although I have to change the status of the story because the violence will increase A LOT." Blitz started to sweat and he said "Chill homes…it was just a suggestion. Don't you have reviews to answer?"
Mnarutodbz turns to the readers and he says "You're right but this time I won't be answering the reviews…this chapter someone else will…Eldor…you're up."
Eldor suddenly appears and he says "What is this? What am I, the great Eldor, doing here?" Mnarutodbz smirked and he says "You will be answering the reviews of the readers. Here comes the first one."
ZXEclipse "Mnarutodbz: Another good chapter. I'm liking the plot twist you have going on. Could it be that the Sons of Sparda will be teaming up with the grandparents any time soon? I'm impressed. Never heard of anybody going back further than Sparda, to his own ancestors. You may start a new trend.
Eldor rolls with his eyes and he says "Not important…ask about someone important…like me!"
Mnarutodbz growls and he says "Thank you ZXEclipse. I thought it would be a good plot twist. I needed some sort of link between Sparda, Earth and Naruto's world and this solution was very fun to write and it has potential for future chapters."
One thing that has me a bit concerned though: It appears you added in something you have rarely used. Naruto received the Devil Bringer, but it has barely been mentioned later on.
Eldor growled and he says "Devilbringer…interesting." Suddenly his brain is overflowing with information and he says "The characters will use abilities and weapons when it's necessary and the devilbringer, old devil-arms and new ones will appear frequently later on."
Dante: Looking good so far. I'm a little surprised by how you listened to Vergil immediately when told 'no guns' in the fight against your gramps.
Dante reads and he says "Teamwork Eclipse and I could see it wouldn't have any effect." Eldor chuckled and he says "Amateur…"
Vergil: Still doing very nicely. It appears the author is making subtle hints about you and Tayuya, if I read the last few chapters correctly. The instrumental link between fighters, if you will. How do you believe you will react to your grandmother and grandfather working with the enemy, for now?
Vergil "I think my reaction will be…neutral. I don't know anything about them and I have no feelings for them." Eldor looked surprised and he says "And they call me cold and hard…"
Trish: I'm hoping you can get a little more action soon. You are an interesting character with your own spice to add into the story's flavor. One thing I am having trouble understanding though: How is it you and Vergil seem to be on good terms? Considering both who you look like, and who made you look like that initially, I am surprised Vergil hasn't either tried to maim you, or is less respectable to you.
Trish "Well…in the chapters people can read that Vergil still doesn't like me and I don't like him. Now we are just having a truce since we are working together. Despite our shared despise for each other we do respect the abilities we have." Vergil growled and he says "Speak for yourself…"
Naruto: It's still good to see you using your head. Do you have any new interesting Devil Art jutsu to share with us? Will you help your mother adjust to the 'devil process'? If so, how will you?
Naruto "I've been raised differently than the original story so I am who I am in this story and this chapter is more story related than personal…although I have been told something new will be added."
Itachi: The author did very well with you, for that I thank him. You are not only revealed as a good guy throughout the story, but your eyes are saved. How are you enjoying your half devil benefits and abilities?
Itachi "Good so far but who knows that it will last. The writer can be…unpredictable sometimes."
Sasuke: You should thank the author. If it weren't for his new twist, you would become one of the biggest arses in the series. How are you going to react to the other Sasuke, or the Evil twin?
Sasuke seems to think but then he says "I think I will try to kill him." Eldor "Really…am I the only one who is considered to be evil? One doesn't think anything about his own ancestors and the other wants to kill his own clone, evil twin…whatever he is!"
Kyuubi: Not much out of you from the last chapter. I miss you. Perhaps during the more less interesting moments in the story, you could begin to pull a 'Jak Daxter' style input. When apparently nothing interesting is going on, just add something simply entertaining, be it a bad pun, comment about Naruto's opponents, etc.
Kyuubi is crying tears of joy and she says "Finally someone who misses me. The writer has someone special planned for me but that's later in the story…unfortunately not this chapter…"
Kushina Minato: Still loving you guys in this story. Minato, I understand why you are hiding your presence from the village, but don't you think you could liven things up a bit more, getting into a good old marital battle at home? Comedy between you and Kushina is always fun. Perhaps a prank off? Kushina, when do you believe you will learn to Devil Trigger, and how do you think it will feel? Are you looking forward to it? Considering that Dante and Vergil are fighting your grandparents, as well as Naruto's great grandparents, are you looking forward to the family bond revelation that is sure to come crashing down like a tsunami?
Minato laughs and he says "Very funny Eclipse but just like any other powerful man…my power ends at the threshold of the house…" Kushina glares at Minato and she cries out "What is that supposed to mean? Are you saying I'm a tyrant?" Minato shook his head and he says "No honey…just that you are too sweet to fight with…" Kushina crosses her arms and she says "That's sweet honey…" Mnarutodbz whispers to Minato "Good save…" Eldor rolls with his eyes again and he says "Wimp…" Kushina reads her question and she says "I don't know…really…MNARUTODBZ!" Mnarutodbz suddenly disappears…
For right now, this is all I can think of review-wise. I don't review every chapter, so I can observe and build up on observations and questions, then pull off one of these long shpiels. Doing great with the story.
Keep it in style.
Eldor growls and he says "Idiot…next review!"
Linarian Rathma "Good Chapter again, as usual!I have some questions for different characters.
Kushina: So will your new devil blood enhanced form will be a man or woman? And will you let Naruto have his Harem considering he doesn't become like Dante due to it?
Kushina reads the first question and she says "Linarian…I'm a she-devil…half-devil…not a frog. I can't change sex. The writer convinced me that Naruto must have a harem."
Eldor grinned and he says "Woman…think about this. Dante doesn't need a harem and he is a half-demon as well…and so is Vergil." Kushina suddenly gets big eyes and she yells "MNARUTODBZ!" Mnarutodbz is still gone…thank Kami…
Vergil: Since you are my favourite character, I am going to give something useful to you.*Hands Vergil a Gas Mask* You will understand soon enough why I gave this to you.
Naruto: Will you create a new Devil Rasengan?And why don't you go get some new Devil Arms?I have a gift for you.*hands him a Chili Flavoured Ramen* No one will no that you ate Chili...
Dante: You are just an questions for you...
Dante reads it and he says "Alright…I don't understand it…"
Gaara: Will you be able to get a Shukaku Devil Arm?
Gaara "I will even get more than that…"
Blitz:You are an ass too.
Blitz suddenly looked hyperactive and he says "That's not fair! I'm cool like…like a cube of ice!" Kushina sees Naruto eating something and she asks "What's that?" Naruto doesn't even get a bite and he says "Uhm…nothing…" Kushina looks at it and she cries out "Is that…ramen? GIMME GIMME GIMME!" And Kushina takes the ramen away from Naruto and starts to eat it. Just seconds later she feels something in her stomach and then she made a sound everyone knows. Everyone passes out while Kushina's face became as red as her hair. Vergil suddenly walks towards her and he says "Not the thing I expected…thank you Linarian." Eldor is just able to lift up his head and he cries out "What's wrong with you people! That's the most…powerful attack I've ever faced!"
Jaku Uzumaki "Awesome Chapter! I read through 1 to 16 all day I like it. I got one question are you going doing sequel in shippuden ? if you are i look forward to it.
Keep it up great work. Peace !
Mnarutodbz appears again and he says "Yes…" Eldor suddenly stands up and he yells "Wait! Am I getting paid for this?" Mnarutodbz is thinking about it and he asks "It depends. Do you have any next of kin?" Eldor starts to shake his head and Mnarutodbz says "Then no…it wouldn't do you any good."
Mnarutodbz turns to the readers and he says "Anyway I hope you will like this chapter…after the disclaimer of course…"
Disclaimer: Mnarutodbz doesn't own Naruto, Devil may cry or any characters used in this FANFICTION
Naruto opened his eyes. He saw nothing more than sand. He put his hand above his eyes and he could see a village in the distance. He mumbled to himself "Where are we?" A clear voice said "I don't know but I am going to find out." Naruto looked to the side and he saw Vergil. Dante just got up and he asked "What the hell happened?" Vergil looked at Dante and he said "Trouble." He looked at the two Uchiha's and he said "Wake those two up. After that we will walk to that village."
Naruto and Dante had trouble to wake the two brothers up but they finally succeeded. Itachi shook his head to get rid of the dizziness and he asked "What happened?" Naruto shrugged and he answered "We don't know. We are trying to figure it out." Vergil looked at the two brothers and he asked "Are you two able to walk?" Itachi examined himself and he said "I am not injured in any way…just a bit hazy." Sasuke nodded and he said "Me too. We will be fine." Vergil nodded and he said "Then we will move to that village."
The village was further than the group thought. The heat made the air tremble and it gave a false sense of distance. Finally they reached the village and Vergil looked around. He saw a big building made out of wood and a sign that said 'Saloon'. He saw a few horses and he whispered "No…it can't be…" He looked further and he saw a few men who were wearing some easy clothes while they were wearing Stetsons on their heads. Vergil shook his head and he said "Don't tell me…please…not that…" Dante pumped one arm in the air and he cried out "Yahoo! The Wild West baby!" Itachi, Sasuke and Naruto gave Dante a strange look and Vergil said "It's a time in history…our history."
Dante was still frantic. He was a fan of the Wild West since he was a child. It didn't even occur to him that this entire situation wasn't normal. When he calmed down a bit Vergil said "Are you done? We need to discuss this situation." Dante calmed down and with a big sigh he said "Fine. But first we need different clothes. If we keep these clothes, people might give us strange looks." Everyone looked at their clothes and Vergil said "There is no chance that I will put on a cowboy suit." Dante sighed and he said "Fine. But first of all…we can better hide our weapons." Naruto frowned and he asked "Why?" Dante nodded towards the village and he said "They don't use swords here but guns." Itachi looked from one to another and he said "We can store our usual weapons in a scroll by the means of a sealing jutsu."
Itachi looked at the sun and he saw that it started to set. He said "We can wait until nightfall. Dante said we need different clothes. In the night we can move unnoticed." Dante nodded and he said "Good. Virge…please think about switching your clothes…you will really stand out." Vergil looked at Dante and he said "I will think about it. Good…so this will be our course of action: first we will adept ourselves to our environment and after that we need to find out what happened. After those two actions we need to find a way to return to Konoha." The others nodded and Vergil said "Good. Dante, since you had a lot of…research about this time in history, we are going to let you handle any conversations that come our way." Dante smirked and he said "Just leave it to me." Vergil glared at him and he said "Just don't go overboard."
Itachi stepped forward and he asked "Should I look around in the area where we can find clothes?" Vergil nodded and he said "If you can do it without being seen, it wouldn't be a problem." Dante nodded as well and he said "Also look for firearms." Itachi frowned and he asked "Firearms?" Dante nodded and he said "They look like my weapons only different. Most people probably wear them here. If Vergil, Naruto or I get shot, we will recover but you and Sasuke are vulnerable to them." Itachi sighed and he said "Good…I will look for them. I will be right back." And Itachi moved away. Naruto saw him walking away and he whispered to Sasuke "Do you think he can walk around town without being seen?" Sasuke smiled and he said "Don't worry. Itachi is quite good at stealth and he will use the sharingan if there isn't any other way."
The sun continued to set and when the dusk came, Itachi returned. Vergil looked at him and he asked "Did you find what we need?" Itachi nodded and he said "We just need to go to two buildings but they are next to each other." Vergil nodded but Dante said "We need something else Virge…something we completely forgot…" Vergil frowned and he asked "What is it?" Dante rubbed his thumb against his index- and middle finger and he said "Money. If we need are here longer than we anticipate, we need a place to stay and that requires cash." Vergil nodded and he said "You are right. Perhaps we find something in the stores." Dante shrugged and he said "I guess we don't have a choice. Since we are stealing clothes we can also steal some cash." Naruto shook his head and he said "I am against it. Stealing clothes is a thing that is necessary at the moment so that we don't stand out but stealing money from hard working people is plain wrong in my opinion." Itachi nodded and he said "I agree with Naruto. There are also other means to acquire some money, like working." Naruto smiled and he said "Or gambling." Dante sighed and he said "Fine…we will only steal clothes…but I am not the one who will gamble…I have a hell of a poker face but no luck with the cards. " Vergil made a waving gesture and he said "We will see what will come our way. First things first."
Itachi looked at the sky and he said "Darkness is approaching…and with the night comes our chance to make our mission successful." Vergil nodded and he said "We will wait one hour. We will enter the village, steal some clothes and we will return to this place." Dante gave Vergil a weird look and Vergil explained "People would find it strange that we suddenly appear in the village and they will suspect us if the owner of the store finds out that some clothes are missing." Sasuke nodded and he said "And if we enter the village tomorrow from this side the people will think that we just arrived and that someone else stole the clothes because it happened before we arrived." Vergil nodded and he said "Exactly. If we are lucky we won't encounter any trouble with the locals. For now we wait until the time is right and after that we will camp here."
Time passed on slowly and while Sasuke was looking at the sky, that was getting darker, he asked Naruto "Do you think we will ever go back?" Naruto was bored and he was throwing stones in the sand and he said "I believe we will. First we need to take care for ourselves and after that we will figure out what is going on here." Sasuke looked at the village and he said "Perhaps it's a strange thought but I keep thinking that something terrible will happen in our absence…that when we will return that we will find Konoha destroyed." Naruto smiled and he said "Those are silly thoughts Sasuke…don't forget that Tsunade is a clever lady and don't forget about the rest. My father was Hokage once and he knows what to do when things go wrong." Sasuke closed his eyes and he was able to smile when he said "You are right Naruto…perhaps it was my primitive fear that spoke up." Naruto shook his head and he said "There is nothing wrong about worrying about your friends. It shows character and it defines the good from the bad."
Vergil was sitting on a big stone and he said "Enough you two…look at the village." The two looked at the village and after a while Sasuke said "What's the matter? I don't see anything." Vergil nodded and he said "Exactly. It's dark but there are no lights on. The entire village is dark." Itachi looked at the village and he whispered "Perhaps they like to go to bed when it's dark." Dante shook his head and he said "Normally the saloons are getting crowded when it gets dark. Vergil is right…something isn't right here." Naruto looked up and he said "Well…it isn't really our business and tomorrow we can look into it but for now we can get some new clothes since no one is around." Vergil nodded and he said "You are right. It's useless to speculate and we can only get confirmation when we are in the village. Let's proceed."
On his recon, Itachi already decided the best route and he led the way. They reached the store unnoticed and with a simple gesture from Vergil, the door opened. Dante whistled quietly and he said "You should have been a professional burglar Virge." Vergil looked at Dante and he replied "It's better than kicking in doors." And he entered the shop. The shop had a wide variety of clothes. Sasuke looked at the clothes with a disgusted look on his face and he asked "Do people really wear these clothes here?" Dante chuckled and he said "You bet. Just find something that would suit you…it's only for a little while until we find a way to get back." Sasuke sighed and he took some clothes. Itachi was looking at the clothes as well and he asked "But why are there so many hats here?" Vergil looked at him and he said "Because of the sun. Don't complain about it. You may find the clothes weird but the people here will find our clothes weird." Vergil got a black undershirt, black pants and a long leather coat that ended just above his boots. Dante raised an eyebrow and he asked "Have you changed your mind." Vergil let out a sigh and he said "Yes. As much as I hate to admit it I have to change clothes. All the more reason to get out of this mess quickly. Is everyone ready?" Itachi, Sasuke, Naruto and Dante nodded and Vergil said "Good…Itachi, you said that the next building have firearms?" Itachi nodded and Vergil said "Good. Dante and Naruto…you two stand on the look-out while I will help Itachi and Sasuke with some decent weapons."
The group left the building and they went to the next. Dante and Naruto were standing on the look-out while the rest was inside the building. Dante was looking over the buildings and he said "I don't like this…" Naruto looked up and he asked "Why not? I thought you liked the Wild-West." Dante nodded and he said "Indeed but this doesn't seem like the Wild-West…there is no nightlife…even the saloon is closed…no…I don't like this." Naruto shrugged. He only heard some small details from Dante and Vergil and he said "Tomorrow we will find out what is going on here. I don't like it here as well…I have a strange feeling that something is seriously wrong in this town."
Meanwhile in Naruto's world
Reigar and Penance walked into the hide-out after she did her work. Orion looked at them and he asked "Is it done?" Penance nodded and Orion said "Good. Konoha will be to occupied to meddle with us now. They will do anything in their power to find their three precious inhabitants." Penance crossed her arms and she said "Five. Two men with black hair were with them. Collateral damage." Orion nodded and he said "All the better." Orion suddenly stopped talking when Orochimaru entered the room and he said "Bad news…the locations you asked my spies to check out are heavily guarded. It might get messy when you try to get them." Orion frowned and he asked "Why?" Orochimaru walked to the wall and he said "Because in two of the three locations there are jinchuuriki. When they meddle in your affairs it might be troublesome, not only because they are powerful but also because you will draw unneeded attention." Orion made a gesture and with a cold voice he commanded "Explain." Orochimaru sighed and he said "Jinchuuriki are mostly hated by villagers but the leaders of the village see them as useful weapons. They will hunt anyone who hurts or kill them. Also the Akatsuki will interfere when you hurt them." Rage snarled at Orochimaru "Akatsuki?" Orochimaru smiled and he said "A organization that consists of powerful ninja. I was a member but let's say we had some differences. They have their own plans with the jinchuuriki." Penance looked strange at Orochimaru and she asked "Jinchuuriki?" Orion answered in Orochimaru's place and he said "Humans who carry a powerful demon inside them. They prevent that the demons roam free." Orochimaru nodded and he said "Yes. And their leader called Pain will stop at nothing to gather them."
Orion made a gesture and he said "We will consider our options. How is the boy doing?" Orochimaru chuckled and he said "He is developing rapidly. In three years he will be powerful enough to be my vessel." A grin appeared on Orion's face and he said "We will see. Reigar…you are the best in planning and tactics. What do you think about the things you just heard?" Reiger leaned against the wall and he said "Our time is running short. I don't like rushing into things. My advice would be to wait. I wouldn't like it when one or more villages are trying to hunt us down. Stay in the shadows and strike at the opportune moment would be advisable." Orion nodded and he said "I agree. We will resurrect the others in three years." Rage slammed on the table and he cried out "What!? That's bullshit! It's easy…get to the location and kill everyone who is in our way." A cold glare appeared in Orion's eyes and he said "I give the orders here Rage…not you." Rage clenched his fists and he said "Fine. What are we supposed to do in the meantime?" Orion shrugged and he said "Gather intelligence…get acquainted with the environment. Do what you like without raising any attention."
Reigar suddenly started to walk to the exit and Eldor asked "Where are you going?" Reigar stopped and he said "I'm going as far away from you as I can. We can do what we like and you don't fall under those things." Orion looked at Reigar and he said "Just be back in time." Reigar started walking again and he left. Orion looked at Eldor and he said "Keep an eye on him. I don't want to lose him." Eldor nodded and he walked to the door.
With Naruto
It was morning and the group went back to the village. Itachi and Sasuke were now wearing Colts. They understood the concept of the weapon and when the situation called for it they would use it. Their first trip was to the saloon because Dante told them that a saloon was the best way to know everything about a village. Then went through the door and they saw the barkeeper who was cleaning glasses. Dante looked at the barkeeper and he said "Good morning keeper." The barkeeper stopped cleaning and he said "Mornin' strangers. What will it be?" Dante leaned on the counter and he said "Some information. We just arrived and we are in the need of money." The barkeeper smiled and he said "There are several ways to earn money. The most legal way is working for it. You can also play poker if you are good at it. Since recently you can also fight for money in the building across from here but I wouldn't recommend it." Dante frowned and he asked "How so?" The barkeeper got a frown on his face and he said "Because it is dangerous. There are no rules and everyone may enter. The champion is a Jap with a strange way of fighting. But there are also Greasers (Old American insulting word for Mexican.), Europeans and they even allow niggers (My apologies but in the old Wild-West they indeed called African-Americans that)." Naruto frowned but he didn't say anything. Dante nodded and he said "Thanks Keep…we will come back when we earned some cash. Do you have some good whiskey?" The barkeeper started to clean glasses again and he said "Good or bad…they both get you drunk." Dante nodded again and they left the saloon. When they were on the streets Naruto asked "What did that guy mean? What are Greasers and Niggers?" Dante made a gesture and he said "There were some difficulties with Mexico in the early years of the Wild-West and that went on for a long time. Greaser is an insult. As for nigger…well…slave traders brought a lot of people from Africa here. They have a dark skin color. They worked here as slaves before the president commanded their freedom. Some Americans saw them as lower beings who don't deserve the same rights as them and they even started an organization called the KKK to restrain the 'black danger' as they called it." Itachi frowned and he said "So they are a suppressed group of people." Vergil nodded and he said "Yes. Not everyone thinks the same way but some people indeed thought that the African-Americans were a threat." Dante spit on the ground and he said "Disgusting racists." Vergil nodded and he said "Rather scared people. Some are real racists but most people were just scared. "
Sasuke shrugged and he said "But you said that his is your past so that doesn't matter anymore…the only thing that is important now is how to get out of here." Dante nodded and he said "You're right. First the money, then a place to stay and then we can discuss our options." Vergil looked in front of him and he said "I've been thinking…" Dante smiled and he said "That's a first…" Vergil glared at him and he said "I recalled a name…one of those devils we are facing. Penance, the devil of time and space." Dante looked up and he said "Wait…time and space. I think you are on something here Virge." Vergil nodded and he said "I've read about these kind of phenomenon…time and space travel. When it's inflicted there normally is a way out." Dante nodded and he asked "And that is…?" Vergil shrugged and he said "It depends per case. Only by knowing the current situation we can discover the thing that is holding us here." Naruto growled and he said "So we still don't know anything." Vergil nodded and he said "No…we now know who did this to us and that there is a way out. We only need to find it." Itachi nodded and he said "But information often requires money. So how are we going to do it." Dante sighed and he said "We have two devils…one half-devil and two powerful ninja's…I think fighting is the way to go." Vergil looked at the building across the street and he said "So it's agreed…we fight." And the group went to the building.
Meanwhile in Konoha
Blitz went into the room of Minato. Minato immediately noticed that he was panting heavily and he asked "Blitz? What's the matter?" Blitz kept on panting and he asked "Have you seen Naruto, Dante or Vergil?" Minato shook his head and he said "Not since yesterday. Why?" Blitz shook his head as well and he said "They didn't return yesterday and Itachi and Sasuke Uchiha are also missing!" Minato looked strange and he said "Perhaps the Hokage send them on a mission." Blitz shook his head again and he said "No because she is looking for them as well. The Devil may cry agency also don't have any missions for them. I've been looking for them since yesterday because they asked me to figure out something ya know." Now Minato started to get frightened and he said "Where were they last seen?" Blitz seemed to think and he said "Last I know they were on the training field." Minato stood up and he said "Then I will start looking there. You notify the Hokage." Blitz nodded and he turned around.
Later on the training field
Minato looked around but all he saw was an empty training field. He noticed that something looked out of place but he couldn't put a finger on it. He went to the place where the grass seemed trampled but there wasn't a single sign. He looked up and he noticed a small glimmer right in front of him. He looked at his hand and suddenly he started to mumble something in an old language. It was the language of the Seraphs. The glimmer became bigger and bigger and it looked like he saw a small golden circle. Minato looked startled and he said "This means trouble. I must notify Jao and Argor!"
With Naruto
The five were inside of the big building. They saw a few stand and a big ring in the middle. A fight was going on and they saw two big men wrestling each other. Itachi asked "Who of us is going to fight?" Dante and Vergil looked at each other and they both said "You are." Itachi looked dumbfounded and Vergil said "Dante and I could get some unwanted attention because of our strength and powers. Naruto and Sasuke are too young to compete." Itachi sighed and he said "Fine…what should I do?" Dante nodded at a small guy who was standing in front of the ring and he said "I am going to ask him that. You four stay put." And Dante went to the ring only to return a few moments later and Vergil asked "What is the verdict?" Dante shrugged and he said "It's simple; after each fight a competitor is wanted. The winner gets 50 bucks if he wins…the loser doesn't get anything." Vergil nodded and he said "Most things are pretty cheap in this village…I think 200 dollars is enough to get around for two days." Itachi nodded and he said "If you say so. So I need to win 4 fights…am I correct?" Vergil nodded and he said "Yes. Just don't use too much power." Itachi nodded and he said "Don't worry."
It took a few minutes until one of the fighters was knock-out in the ring. A small, skinny man entered the ring and he said with a hard metallic voice "Ladies and gentleman! Iron was victorious once again! Who dares to take on this colossus from the old country? Who wants to earn the chance to earn 50 bucks?" Itachi stepped forward and the skinny man said "It looks like we have a challenger!" The fighter called Iron looked at Itachi and a mocking smile appeared on his face. Iron was at least one head taller than Itachi and much muscular. Itachi nodded and he said "I'm in." The small man who was standing in front of the ring said "Give me your weapons and enter the ring." Itachi nodded, handed over his weapons and he entered the ring. The man stood in the middle and he said "Remember people; there is no style, no rules and no mercy! Fighters can only win when the competition either submits or isn't able to continue the fight." The skinny man raised his arm and he cried out "Ring clear!" A bell started to sound and the fight began.
Iron stood in front of Itachi and he said with a weird accent "You can't win puny man. I will destroy you." Itachi didn't show any emotion and he said "Unlikely." Iron suddenly ran forward with the power of a bulldozer, ready to destroy anything that came on his way. His fist was heading towards Itachi but he avoided the simple attack. Itachi quickly grabbed Iron's fist and with a simple turn Iron was forced to move to the left so that his right flank was vulnerable. Itachi immediately took advantage of the situation and kicked Iron hard in the kidney area. Iron immediately cried out in pain and grabbed his side. Itachi took his distance after his attack. Iron was a big opponent with a lot of power in his arms. Itachi reasoned that he is faster than Iron and that he only attacked when Iron gave him the opportunity. Fortunately for Itachi Iron was impatient and he attacked again. Iron's attacks were straight forward and easy to read…even without the sharingan. The fight kept on going and after every attack Iron made, Itachi immediately responded with a vicious counter-attack. Finally Iron gave Itachi a perfect chance to end this fight. Iron ran forward, with his head down with the intent to ram Itachi. Itachi smirked and when Iron was near him, he made a backflip and his foot connected hard with Iron's face.
Iron suddenly stood up, with a strange grin on his face and then he fell down. Some people started to cheer but Itachi noticed that something was wrong. Iron's body started to shake and purple smoke came out of his body. Vergil noticed it too and he said "Dante…" Dante nodded and he said "I see it." Suddenly a demon appeared out of the purple smoke and one of the spectators cried out "Iron is one of 'THEM'! Let's get out of here!"
Dante immediately jumped up when the demon became physical and he started to shoot. Itachi looked at his back and he noticed that the small man who he gave his weapons to also transformed into a demon but he also saw that Vergil kicked the demon away. Itachi jumped out of the ring and took back his firearms. In the meantime the demon was close to Dante. Itachi aimed at the demon but Sasuke yelled "Itachi! That isn't going to work! Dante already emptied his guns on him." Itachi ignored Sasuke and he pulled the trigger. The bullet left the barrel and Itachi immediately activated his mangekyo sharingan. His eyes were tracking the bullet and he whispered "Amaterasu." The bullet was suddenly covered with black flames and it connected with the demon, which was set ablaze. The demon let out a high, shrieking scream while he was consumed by the flames of Amaterasu. Itachi did the same with the other demon and soon they were alone. The other spectators ran away…except one. It was the one who made the obvious comment that Iron was a demon. Dante walked towards him and he asked "What the hell is going on in this town?" The villager looked up with a scared look in his eyes and he stuttered "You…were able to destroy…two of them…" Dante pulled him up and he said "Yeah yeah…now spill the beans. What's going on in this town?" The man frowned and he said "I can't really explain…but if someone can it's the barkeeper across the street." Dante looked surprised and he said "But he was the one who send us here." And Dante explained his conversation with the barkeeper. The villager said "The barkeeper is a very wise man and there must be a reason why he told you people of this place. Talk to him again…that's what I would suggest gents." Dante looked a Vergil, who started to nod. In the meantime Itachi walked to a wooden box near the ring and he took a green piece of paper with the digit 50 on it. Naruto looked at him and Itachi said "I have won the fight." Vergil made a gesture to the others and he said "Let's return to the saloon. It's time we speak with that barkeeper again."
Meanwhile with Minato
Minato, Argor and Jao were standing in the training field. They were looking at the resonance the portal left behind and Argor said "There is no doubt about is…this is the work of Penance!" Jao glared at Argor and he asked "How can we bring them back?" Argor seemed to think and he said "We can't…only they can. They must do something in order to return to this time and reality. I think the sons of Sparda are smart enough to figure it out." Minato glared at Argor and he said "My son is in there as well." Jao put his hand on Minato's shoulder and he said "Relax Minato. We can't do anything from here. Don't worry too much or else you will get wrinkles." Minato gave Jao a fearful glare and he said "Did you have any sons when you were alive?" Jao shook his head and Minato said "Then don't talk about relaxing."
Suddenly the three looked to the side when red flames emerged from the ground. A small, black being appeared and he went to Argor. He whispered something in Argor's ear, who immediately nodded and the black being disappeared. Jao glared at Argor and he asked "What is it?" Argor looked at Jao and he said "It seems that the devils have decided to wait for the next resurrection…although I can't figure out why." Minato suddenly looked up and he said "Wait…Blitz told me about that. It seems that the devils can only resurrect other devils when the stars are in a certain alignment." Argor looked surprised but then he said "Of course! How could I forget something so basic! Some alignments increase mystical rituals!" Jao looked at the sky and he said "It seems we have gained some time but I wonder what the devils are going to do now." Minato shrugged and he said "I don't know…but now we have the time to prepare more properly." Argor looked at the resonance of the portal and he said "And for that we need the sons of Sparda."
With Reigar
Reigar was sitting on a green hill while he was looking down on a crystal blue lake. He was deep in thought but he was pulled out of his thought when he suddenly heard a child laughing. He looked back and he saw a little girl who was trying to capture a butterfly. She swung with the net but she missed again. She let out a big sigh but suddenly she noticed Reigar. She ran towards him and she asked "Sorry mister but are you looking for our village?" Reigar shook his head. The girl sat next to him and with the normal curiosity of a child she asked "May I ask what you are doing here?" Reigar looked at the lake and it seemed like he didn't want to answer but then he said "I'm thinking about problems." The girl laughed and she looked at the sky. Reigar looked at the girl and he asked "Do you find that amusing?" The girl shook her head and she said "No. I find it funny that you are thinking about problems instead of solving them. My daddy always said that indecisive people think about problems while good people find means to solve problems." Reigar got an amusing look on his face and with a little bit of sarcasm in his voice he asked "And who is this father of yours?" The girl shook her head again and she said "You wouldn't know him. He is dead when he was trying to protect a criminal."
Reigar looked strange. Somehow he was intrigued by this little girl although he couldn't explain why. He asked "So your father was a criminal?" The girl shook her head once again and she said "Nope. My daddy promised to protect the village and he did when he arrested the criminal…but the criminal did a lot of bad things and the villagers tried to lynch him. My father stood between the lynchers and the criminal." Reigar frowned and he asked "Why? He promised to protect the village and the death of the criminal would do exactly that." The girl got a sad smile on her face and she said "My daddy said that what the villagers did wasn't right. Even a criminal deserves the right of a proper trial. He was also trying to teach the villagers something." Reigar frowned. He couldn't understand the logic of the story but still he was intrigued and he asked "What was he trying to teach them?" The girl smiled and she said "My daddy believed that revenge only leads to more revenge while forgiveness leads to redemption and a better character." Reigar got a thoughtful look on his face and he said "So your father broke his promise because they were in conflict with his beliefs?" The little girl smiled and nodded but then Reigar said "Your father wasn't an honorable man." Tears appeared in the eyes of the girl and she said "Yes he was…more honorable than most people." Reigar shook his head and he said "He broke his promise." The girl looked at Reigar and she asked "You are a strange man mister…what are we without beliefs?" Reigar wanted to respond but suddenly he went silent. That last sentence hit him. What was he without his beliefs? Nothing more than an aimless projectile that could be used by anyone. Is that what he has become? A projectile, guided by his means of honor and used by Orion? He suddenly looked up when he heard the girl say "Oh…I have to go or else my mommy gets angry." She stood up and she was ready to go but Reigar said "Little girl…you forgot something." The girl turned around and she saw that Reigar was holding the butterfly on his hand. The girl let out a little scream of happiness and she said "You caught it!" Reigar gave her the butterfly and she looked at it. After that she raised her hands and gave the butterfly back its freedom. Reigar looked at it and he said "I thought you wanted to catch it." The girl nodded and she said "I did but just to look at it. The butterfly can't fly in my house and it has a right to live. Thank you and goodbye mister."
The little girl ran away but just when she neared the border of the village she turned around and waved at Reigar. Reigar waved back and then he was alone again…thinking about his future…
With Naruto
Naruto and the others returned to the saloon and they saw that the barkeeper was still busy with cleaning glasses. Vergil slammed his fist on the counter to get the barkeeper's attention and he said "We have to talk." The barkeeper looked at Vergil and he said "You're back I see." Vergil glared at the barkeeper and he said "You knew we would go to the fight and you knew what was in the ring!" The barkeeper nodded and he said "Yes…I know. And I also know you would survive." Vergil gave the barkeeper a good look and he said "This isn't a normal Wild-West town is it?" The barkeeper gave away a sad smile and he said "It once was…until one dreadful day. One day some people invaded this town and killed everyone in sight…and yet…we woke up the other day. No one seemed to remember the attack and I thought it was a dream although I could still feel the claws that slitted my throat. That day the same things happened in my 'dream' but I thought it was just a mere coincidence…until the attack happened again. I woke up again after the attack and after a few days I knew what was going on." Dante raised his hand and he said "Wait…each day this entire village is killed and no one remembers it?" The barkeeper shook his head and he said "Not everyone…just a handful. Every single day we live the same day, trapped in some sort of purgatory. And suddenly you people show up." Dante looked strange and he asked "And what about the sheriff?" The barkeeper shook his head and he said "Sheriffs didn't live long in this town…the lead-filled air prevented it." Vergil leaned towards the barkeeper and he asked "And the people who invades this town…they aren't people aren't they? They are demons." The barkeeper nodded and he said "Indeed. Everyone who had a Colt emptied them on the invaders but without any effect." Sasuke frowned and he asked "Then why don't you just leave this village?" The barkeeper shook his head and he said "Impossible. When you go into the desert you will eventually reach the other side of town. It's like we are on a small, round planet."
Vergil seemed to think but then he said to Dante "I know how to break this curse." Dante looked at Vergil who continued "If we break the curse, this state of purgatory will disintegrate and I believe we will be send back home because we don't belong here…" Dante glared at Vergil and he said "But I hear 'but' coming…" Vergil nodded and he said "But it can also be that we cease to exist as well." Itachi shook his head and he said "Unlikely." Vergil looked at Itachi and he asked "What do you mean?" Itachi looked at the floor and he said "All these people are actually dead since a long time…but we are alive. If we kill the entities that keep them here, their souls can move on…but we are alive." Vergil nodded and he said "Most likely." Vergil turned to the barkeeper and he asked "How long before the assault will begin?" The barkeeper seemed to think and he said "Just after sundown…from the east." Vergil nodded again and he said "Good…in the meantime we will kill the demons in the village if there are any." The barkeeper nodded and he said "Oh yes there are enough here. I can even give you a list." The barkeeper reached under the counter and he gave it to Vergil. Vergil looked at it and he said "Good. Thank you."
The rest of the day the five people killed the demons and the barkeeper's directions were right. The sun started to decent and the group assembled in the east. Vergil looked at Dante and he asked "We got all of them?" Dante nodded and he said "Yes. Now for the last horde and we're done. Let's hope it helps." The sun went down and suddenly eight black riders appeared but they were lower-class demons and the group made quick work of them. When they were all dead Vergil said "That should do it." Itachi looked around and he asked "Why are we still here?" Dante shrugged and he said "Perhaps we have to wait for a new day for the curse to wear off." Vergil frowned and he said "No…this doesn't fit. Something is wrong." Suddenly the surroundings started to fade and the next moment the sun started to shine and the group was standing in front of the town. Vergil grinded with his teeth and he said "We missed something! Dante…are you sure we covered all demons?" Dante nodded and he said "100 percent sure Virge." Itachi looked at the town and he asked "What now?" Vergil walked to the town with a stern look on his face and he said "Let's talk to the barkeeper again."
The group reached the saloon and they found the barkeeper cleaning glasses again and he said "The glasses keep on getting dirty no matter how much I clean." Vergil frowned and he said "It didn't work." The barkeeper turned around to say something but suddenly everyone was shocked when they heard a hard sound and a hole appeared in the forehead of the barkeeper. Vergil looked back and he saw that Naruto was holding a smoking gun. Vergil said "Naruto…what are you doing?" Naruto looked at Vergil and he said "Vergil…he remembers what happened here…he knows every demon…he even knows that we don't belong here. I know that he knows more about this then he wants to admit." The group suddenly heard the barkeeper laughing and he said "Good guess young one but too bad you found it out too late." Dante glared at the barkeeper and he asked "What do you mean?" The barkeeper started to laugh and he said "I wasn't completely honest when I said that the bullets of the original inhabitants were ineffective. They indeed kill the demons but what they didn't know is that the energy of every fallen demon goes to me…they were making me stronger every night without even realizing it." Vergil frowned and he asked "For what purpose? You are stuck here as well." The barkeeper-demon laughed and he said "Not completely. Eventually I will have enough power to break myself free of this curse. Unfortunately you people found out too soon…you would have been a great help but I will have to kill you now." Itachi looked at the barkeeper and he said "No…we will kill you and free this town." The barkeeper laughed again and he said "Wrong. This town belongs to me…because I am the town! They build these houses on the soil where I slumbered and I took possession of every single one!" Suddenly the earth started to shake. Buildings crumbled and disappeared into the barkeeper. The sky, the sand…yes…even the sunlight disappeared and the group was standing in eternal darkness. But they were not alone…no…in front of them was a humongous demon who laughed "Welcome in my realm. You might have defeated the lower demons with ease but against me you don't have a chance."
Itachi quickly got the scroll and released everyone's weapons. Dante grabbed Rebellion and he said "I wouldn't think so. There is a new sheriff in town and I want you gone." The big demon looked at Dante and suddenly attacked with one of its big claws. Dante quickly avoided it by jumping up. Dante landed on the big claw and he started to run on the arm. The demon wanted to use the other claw to hit Dante but Itachi interfered and he used Abyss to pin the hand to the ground. The demon looked surprised at the hand that was pinned down but suddenly he opened his mouth and the souls that he kept trapped came to his aid and the started to circle around Dante. Dante used Rebellion to slash the souls. It seemed like the demon used his focus to control the souls. Vergil noticed it and Naruto as well. They looked at each other and they understood each other. Vergil positioned Yamato and with a big leap Naruto was standing on the blade. A mere second later Naruto was launched by Vergil and Naruto was rushing towards the heart of the demon. He stretched out Repent and he cried out DIVINE IMPALER. Naruto went straight through the demon's body and he let out a painful roar. Hot saliva came out of his mouth and it formed a puddle at his feet. Sasuke immediately cried out "Dante! Get away from him." And he started to weave hand signs. Dante nodded at Sasuke because he immediately knew what he was planning. Small electrical currents came from Sasuke's hand and he rushed towards the puddle while he cried out "Chidori" The Chidori hit the puddle and the demon was electrocuted. Small currents of electricity ran over his body and then he exploded. The entire area was covered with small pieces of flesh and the head of the demon fell down just before Naruto. Two eyes looked up to him and he said "Impossible!" Naruto looked at the head and he said "Don't lose your head over it." And he immediately drove Repent into the head of the demon.
The head exploded and all the souls that the demon had trapped were released. The dark area was lit by the blue souls and within the stream of blue souls there was one red one…the essence of the demon. It rushed towards Naruto and it went inside his body. Naruto's brain was flooded with information of the new ability he got from the demon. He found out that he can reverse time for a few seconds. He didn't have any time to think about it because the group could feel the earth shaking. Vergil was trying to keep his balance and he said "I think this is it…we are either warped home or we will get disintegrated…" Dante growled and he said "I am hoping for the first." Suddenly the group saw all kind of colors and then a blinding green color. It took them a few seconds to realize that it was grass. They looked around and they realized that they we standing in the training field. Dante touched himself and he said "We're still alive!" Vergil glared at him and he said "Either that or we are in hell…which could both be true since you are here." Dante showed a grin and he said "Ah brotherly love…how touching." Vergil crossed his arms, turned away his head and he muttered "Shut up."
Itachi looked at a point in the distance and he said "Someone is coming…and he is pretty fast." Just a few moments later the group could see it was Minato, followed by Kakashi. They reached the group and Minato said "You guys are back! Thank Kami…" An annoyed look appeared on Vergil's face and he said "Kami didn't do a thing." Minato looked at Naruto and he said "We were all worried when we noticed that you have been transported." Naruto looked at his father and he asked "How did you know?" Minato pointed towards them and he said "A technique this powerful always leaves behind some resonance. Where have you been?" Naruto made a waving gesture and he said "Nothing interesting really. Did anything happen while we were away?" Minato shook his head and he said "No…it seems that our opponents have to wait three years. Blitz found out that they need the help of the right constellation to resurrect their brothers." Vergil looked at Minato and he said "I see...I figured as much. What now?" Minato got a serious look on his face and he said "We prepare. We prepare for the things to come." Naruto nodded and he said "That would be the best thing to do…but let's return home for now. I'm starving…what about you Dante?" Dante nodded and he said "I could eat a horse by now." Vergil glared at him and he said "That would be an act of cannibalism." Naruto looked at Vergil and he said "You are in a bad mood Vergil." Dante chuckled and he said "He always gets cranky when he is hungry." Vergil growled and he said "I'm not. You just irritate me." He turned his head away again but suddenly he stomach started growling. First it became silent but then the group started to laugh
Meanwhile in a village far away from Konoha
It became dark and most people went home. In the empty street, a young girl tried to carry a bag as fast as she could to her house. She went to a family member who lived in the other side of the village and now she was carrying the bag home. Suddenly she stopped. She thought she heard some footsteps and that someone was breathing heavily. She turned around and she asked "Is someone there?" It became silent and the street looked abandoned. The girl shrugged and she continued on her way. She was almost home when she heard the strange noises again. She turned around but she still couldn't see anything. Suddenly she heard someone whispering "Jono…over here." The girl called Jono looked around and it seemed like the voice came from a dark alley to her right. She tried to pierce the darkness with her gaze but she couldn't see who was calling her and she asked "Kochi? Is that you?" Kochi is the boy who lived next to her and the voice said "Come over here for a second Jono." With the innocence and the naivety of a child she walked towards the alley and she asked again "Kochi?" Suddenly she was yanked into the alley with incredible force and now she was able to see something. The light of the moon made the being visible and she saw that it was big and not human. The being chuckled and he said "A murder in the beginning of the evening always makes my day…" and the being raised his other hand to end the girl's life with a mighty blow. She screamed but before the arm could hit her someone interfered. She recognized the man she met earlier near the lake and he said "Get out of here little girl. This being is mine!" The girl was to frightened to respond and she ran away.
The being came out of the shadows and he said "What is the meaning of this?" The man, Reigar, said "I've had it with you. Just when I thought my apathy for you couldn't rise any higher you try to pull this off." And Reigar drew his sword. The big being, Eldor, chuckled and he said "You look so menacing Reigar but aren't you forgetting something? You can't kill me or else you are breaking the oath you took so long ago." Reigar got into a fighting position and he said "I don't care. From now on I'm going my own way. I will make my own path and forge my own destiny." Eldor looked shocked and he said "So you are going to betray us?" Reigar got a stern look on his face and he said "I can see it clearly now. I have betrayed myself for a long time…but no more!" Eldor stepped back and he said "Are you forgetting who we are serving? You are signing your own death warrant." Reigar stepped towards Eldor and he said "I would rather die as someone who follows his own path than someone who is doing what he is told to do. I have lost my path because of the darkness of the species I am a part of and it took the innocence of a child to remember who I really am. You are going to be the first step towards my redemption" Eldor drew his sword and he said "Don't think I will go down without a fight!" Reigar showed a filthy grin and he said "Like you would be a challenge. Are you forgetting who you are dealing with?" Eldor took another step back while cold sweat appeared on his face. He knew that he wouldn't be able to defeat his opponent. Reigar was feared and for good reason.
Eldor suddenly shook off his fear and with a boastful roar he rushed forward but he stopped in his tracks. Faster than he could see, Reigar reached him and decapitated him before he realized what was going on. At first glance he appeared normal but slowly a small cut appeared on his throat that started to expand and then his head came off. Eldor's head looked at Reigar and he said "The other will kill you fool." Reigar looked at him with a cold look in his eyes and he said "Perhaps…but at least I will die as the person I chose to be instead of a puppet that is being controlled by someone else." It looked like Eldor's head wanted to say something but before he could, a spear impaled his decapitated head. Reigar look up and he saw Penance on top of the roof. She jumped down, collected her spear and she said "I saw the entire thing." Reigar looked at her and he said "I know. Are you going to tell Orion?" A cocky smile appeared on Penance's face and she said "He can go to hell for all I care. But what are you going to do?" Reigar sheathed his sword and he said "I don't know…it's been a long time since I followed my own path." Penance chuckled and she said "It became time. I almost gave up on you. I don't know about you, but I feel the urge the watch the following events from close." Reigar thought about her words and he asked "Konoha?" Penance nodded and Reigar said "They know my face…at least…Dante, Vergil and Naruto do." Penance chuckled again and she said "We will figure something out. Sometimes you just need a woman's touch." Reigar raised one eyebrow and he asked "You tell me if you find one?" Penance growled and she said "Very funny. Let's go before I change my mind." And the two devils disappeared.
Two days later in Konoha
Naruto and Dante were training were Vergil was overseeing their progress. They had a strict routine that was made by Vergil. They all knew that needed to get stronger. Dante was stronger than Naruto but that wasn't strange at all. Dante was older and more experienced. The two were fighting for almost an hour now but Vergil saw that the end was near. The fight became more ecstatic. Dante used Drive on Naruto and after Naruto evaded he quickly appeared behind Naruto to stab him with Rebellion. The sword went through Naruto's back and it came out in his stomach. With a big grin he said "Too bad Naruto but this time you lose." Suddenly he got a strange feeling and he looked down and he saw the blade of Repent coming out of his stomach. Dante looked back and he said "I could've sworn I hit you." Naruto laughed and he said "I haven't notified you or Vergil with the new ability I got from the demon we defeated in the other dimension. I can turn back time for a few seconds." Dante grinded with his teeth and he said "You sneaky son of a bitch."
Naruto wanted to say something but he, Dante and Vergil suddenly looked to the left. They saw a man and a woman sitting on a stone. Naruto immediately pulled back his sword when he saw the two. Dante glared to the man and he said "You…" The man, Reigar, looked at Dante and he said "We meet again…descendants of Sparda." Vergil immediately drew his blade and Penance said "Really honey…if we meant any harm we attacked already." Vergil thought about the situation and he asked "What are you two doing here?" Reigar just looked at the three and he said "You three are making progress. You truly have the potential of your father." Dante made a carefree gesture and he said "You talk like you knew him." Penance nodded and she said "We did. The last time we saw him he was just sprouting his horns. Before we answer Vergil's question we have one of our own…what happened to your father?" Even with Vergil's analytical mind he couldn't figure out why the two were asking this question and he asked "Why?" Penance smiled and she said "Call it curiosity." Vergil looked at Dante, who nodded and Vergil said "The only thing we know is that he first was a follower of a powerful devil called Mundus. In time, his heart changed and he chose the side of the humans who were living on Earth. He fought countless demons and he closed the gateway between the Earth realm and the demon realm. This took most of his power and years later, when Dante and I were young, he was killed. Years passed since then and the devil Sparda became legend. The demons and devils called him the dark knight Sparda."
Penance looked at Reigar and she said "Your theory was correct." Reigar didn't respond and Vergil said "Now your turn. Why are you two here?" Penance opened her mouth to say something but it was Reigar who said "Penance and I aren't affiliated with the brethren of Chaos anymore. We are here to warn you." Naruto gave Reigar a suspicious glare and he asked "Why?" Penance answered on Reigar's behalf "Because the brethren will try to hunt us down as well. What do you people say again…the enemy of my enemy is my friend?" Reigar spoke again "But although we are important for the brethren, we are replaceable. There are three more brethren besides the ones you know." Vergil frowned and he asked "But why weren't the resurrected in the first place?" Penance looked serious when she said "Because of the risks. The devils we are talking about are quite…unstable. They can wreak a lot of havoc if they are resurrected and now that Reigar and I left and Eldor is dead, Orion will surely consider resurrecting them." Naruto looked at Reigar and he asked "But what is Orion's final goal?" Reigar looked at Naruto and he said "To resurrect an ancient being that he calls master. He is called Omegon and he is considered to be the first." Vergil frowned and he asked "The first what?" Penance looked at the sky and she said "The first evil." Reigar joined the conversation and he said "But I believe Orion has his own agenda besides resurrecting Omegon. He isn't as weak as he pretends to be."
Dante spread his arms and he asked "But why come to us? You two are surely strong enough to oppose him." Reigar looked away and he said "Because we don't know how powerful they are. We know that we can defeat Rage but we hardly know something about Orion's abilities. You and your…friends…have the resources to find out more about Orion…about his strengths and weaknesses." Vergil sheathed Yamato and he asked "And will you stand by us when the time comes?" Penance gave Reigar a certain look and Reigar said "Yes. Omegon and his minions are too big of a threat to be ignored." Naruto seemed to be thinking of something and he asked "But what are you two going to do in the meantime?" Penance crossed her arms and she said "Finding a place to call our base, fending off any pursuers and finding out more about our enemies." Naruto looked at Vergil and then at Dante. Naruto suddenly heard Vergil's voice in his head saying "I know what you are thinking. Do it. Befriend them and we will find out more about the old devils. Their knowledge and experience can also be a critical factor in the struggles ahead." Naruto gave Vergil a barely visible nod and he said "Why don't you two live in our mansion? You have a secure place to stay and you two can stay close to the action."
Penance looked up. She didn't expect this. She looked at Reigar with a questioning look in her eyes and Reigar said "Literally translated; keeping us close to you might open up other possibilities am I correct?" Both Vergil and Naruto looked at each other while Reigar continued "It's a logical way of thinking. If you people can bare to live with us, we can bare to live with you." The three half-devils nodded and Dante said "Just don't eat up the humans and we'll be fine." Reigar growled and he said "Most devils don't even eat humans idiot." Penance nodded and she said with a shiver "Too much bad cholesterol…and it's bad for my waistline." Vergil crossed his arms and he said "Just don't make any sudden moves or else I won't sheath my sword next time…" Reigar gave Vergil an indescribable look and he said "I'm looking forward to the day you can make up to that threat." Vergil didn't understand him and he asked "Why?" A soft smile appeared on Reigar's face when he answered "Because that will be the day that you are ready for the danger that is coming." Vergil growled and he said to Naruto "Let's head back to the mansion." Naruto nodded and the three half-devils and the two purebloods left the training field…
Mnarutodbz "And that's the end of this chapter."
Dante appeared and he cried out "What!? Already? I wanted to see the reaction of the others when we introduced them!"
Mnarutodbz shook his head and he said "You will find out…in the next chapter."
Suddenly Reigar appeared in the room and he asked "What is this place? Where am I?" Dante turned to Reigar and he said "This is the writer's room. He is the one who is writing this story and certain characters in it."
Reigar walked towards Mnarutodbz, poked him in the chest and he asked "Is this true?" Mnarutodbz nods and he says "Yes. Also the part that you killed Eldor." Reigar nodded and he says "That moment gave me great pleasure." Suddenly Eldor's miniature ghost appeared next to Reigar's head and with a ghostly, high-pitched voice he said "I'm a ghost and I'm haunting you…oooooeeehhhhh…." Reigar got a stern look on his face while he was looking at Mnarutodbz, who started to shake his head while he cried out "I'm not doing this!" Reigar is walking towards Mnarutodbz and he says "If you are not doing this then who is…you are going to pay the price mister 'writer'…"
Meanwhile in the next room
Kushina is giggling like a little girl while she is behind Mnarutodbz's laptop. She was saying to herself "This will teach you to run away from me…" meanwhile she started to laugh frantically when she hears Mnarutodbz's screams from the next room. She suddenly looks surprised when she sees the readers and she said "Oh…I didn't notice I got company. I hope you liked the chapter and pleasepleaseplease review. I hope Mnarutodbz is quick with publishing the next chapter."
