Chapter 18: Preparation for War part 1
Karakura: 50 years ago
(4th Overlord's POV)
This was about to become the greatest historical moment I have ever created for Ombré; I conquered nations, pillaged towns; now I just claimed a dark spiritual realm called Hueco Mundo from a rouge reaper named Sosuke Aizen. Now with his army of beings called Arrancars under my command, I will begin my next conquest: The Soul Society.
The Gargantas open to the human world, at a town called Karakura, the enemies are ready for battle, and I can hardly wait. I am now giddy with excitement as I get to stain my blade in the blood of my reaper foes. Not to mention that I have an army that rivals their expertise. An old bald reaper with a long white beard and white coat stares at me with his squinted old eyes, accompanied with other reapers wearing the same clothing that old man is wearing.
I just grin evilly under my dark intimidating helmet and rest my weapon on my shoulder, waiting for them to either talk or make the first move, I don't care who goes first as long as I get some carnage.
"Who are you?" said the Old Reaper in a demanding tone.
Ha, he got some nerve of demanding to me, he has no idea who he's dealing with, but I'll give my identity.
"I am known by many names" I said "I am the witch-boy of Nordberg, Demon Lord of Nordberg, Conqueror of the Glorious Empire and Hueco Mundo. But you may call me the 4th Overlord, your new king"
"King, you're no king of ours" said the foolish old reaper, trying to act brave when I can taste the fear in the air. "Now what's your purpose and where's Aizen?"
I just chuckle at the old man and stare at him with my glowing eyes.
"I killed him; his heart stopped beating thanks to my blade" I said.
I grinned at the expression on the reapers' faces, the mixture of shock and disbelief was shown. I even noticed a little hint of fear; perfect, I am now feared by those that were feared by mortals, the sweet irony. The old reaper gave out the command to charge at me and my Arrancar army; I smirk as I raise my gauntlet to signal my army to attack those foolish reapers that dare oppose me.
The battle begins and it's was thrilling; the sound of metal clangs and the scent of fresh blood enters my nostrils. Oh the aroma of blood smells beautiful and the melody of dying screams from either my soldiers or enemies sounds wonderful in my ears. Especially when I'm joining in the carnage, I hack and slash through the reapers with my weapon, those pathetic swords are nothing but twigs compare to my weapon that was forged by 1000s of minion souls they offered to sacrifice. And speaking of minions, I took the liberty of summoning them to join the battle; they are like excited children in a fun fair, they even have brains of children, obedient children that do what their "Daddy" tells them.
Ah, it's great to be an Overlord.
As I continue to slaughter the reapers like pigs, I was then surrounded by 3 reapers that look tough; good, I love a challenge.
The first doesn't look like a reaper due to his clothes and that ridiculous bucket hat. I hear him announce himself as Kisuke Urahara, a man that owns a dinky little sweet shop in Karakura; how pathetic but I can't take the risk of underestimating this foe, not matter how ridiculous the clothes he wears.
The 2nd person is a reaper with black hair and stubble, the man is in his late 30s or early 40s. He announced himself as Isshin Kurosaki; he must be the father of that orange haired prick back in the Eternal war.
And finally the old fart that foolishly demanded my name, he told me his name, god it's a long name. Genryūsai Shigekuni Yamamoto is his name, see what I mean? What kind of person has a name like that? Anyway, what I heard from the old fart is that he's a head captain; wow I never have thought that he's the leader of the Reapers. I underestimate him a little, that's the last mistake I'll ever make.
As the battlefield rages, I clash blades against the 3 reapers that dare challenge me to a battle royal. A storm rages in the battlefield, rain pours down and soaking the robes of the reapers and Arrancars. Sparks fly from the blades; it was a beautiful sight as I fight against the 3 reapers. The ridiculously dressed reaper and the old coot shout out their sword's names, Benihime and Ryujin Jakka are such beautiful names, including their powers. Benihime fires a flash of red light at me, nearly breaking my armor as I dodged it, but what's more beautiful is Ryujin Jakka as a wall of flames soar towards me and incinerating everything in its path.
I knew that my armor couldn't absorb the attack since the flames from that sword is hotter than a dragon's flames so I summoned my reds to act as a shield. I worked; no matter how hot the flames are, they are ineffective to my reds as they absorb the flames in their skin.
"Heh, my turn" I said as I charge at the 3 reapers, I create a huge gash on Isshin's chest and kicked his sword off his hand. As I was about to finish him off, Urahara swipes his Benihime at me but I deflected his attacks and swiped his hat off…along with his head, heh heh heh. I then start to take care of the old coot until Isshin intervened and plunged his sword in me, it's nothing but a flesh wound to me and I ended his life instantly as I crushed his neck with my gauntlet. The Old coot legged it after I defeated the 2 reapers, bloody cowards; I despise cowards. No matter; he'll die anyway when I truly came here to create something; yes, that rouge Reaper Aizen interested me of overthrowing the spirit king and forging the royal key, he has a way of making it but my way is better and terrifying. I raise my gauntlet and absorb 10'000 souls and the reishi in my hand until they all encrust into the Royal Key in my hand.
Incredible, all off those sacrificed souls, reaper, Arrancar; dead and alive were absorbed to make something so small…
(Normal POV)
Ombré: Present
In the bedroom, Naruto is reading the story to his children, the journal of the 4th Overlord of how he created the Royal Key and tried to conquer it.
"…and now that I have the key, I can enter the home of the spirit king and kill him." Said Naruto as he reads the journal "But alas, I feel restless as the forging tires me up; I must rest for tonight so I can begin the invasion another time. End of Log"
"What happened next, Daddy?" asked Naruko, curious about what her great-great grandfather did next.
"That's it" said Naruto "That was his last log and conquest as Overlord, he was betrayed by his son and died"
"Aw" said the children with disappointment
"And what about the key, where did he put it?" ask Lucien
Naruto smiles as he starts to take the Royal Key out from his pocket; it is small and made of gold…well reishi but the texture of it his metallic and the colour of it is gold.
"The 4th Overlord was very clever of hiding it" said Naruto "But no one can hide anything from me. Anyway, its bedtime and you all got training in the morning"
"But I hate training" said Iko
"Well you can't be strong Overlords if you don't train to fight like one" said Naruto "Now be good and go to sleep"
"Yes daddy" said the children as they all now fall asleep.
Naruto gave each of them a kiss on the forehead and leaves the room; as he close the door, he took a glance of the royal key and smirks evilly.
"It won't take long" said Naruto "Soon I will begin what my great-grandfather started"
Somewhere in Europe
Ventus Uchiha is having problem, a problem that involves a certain KG pirate captain stealing art pieces from all art galleries in Europe. He heard that from the news he is watching in T.V
"And just in, Aaron "Kestrel" Claw of the KG pirates strikes again as all art pieces crafted by all famous artists of all Europe were stolen in the Louvre this month, the Parisian police are investigating this" said the news presenter in the TV "As we know that Kestrel is not working alone, 3 accomplices were assisting him with the art theft in the Louvre.
3 teenagers known as Sai, Deidara and Sasori were with the KG pirate and are still at large…"
Ventus turns off the TV and sighs at the problem, 3 years after Naruto left for the Eternal war, Kestrel and his KG pirates formed with an alliance with 3 notorious rouge ninjas posing as artists that left the Shinobi Nations into hiding from Hunter-nin.
*sigh* 3 years Claw was at Europe thought Ventus as he rubs his temples Ceraza informed me that he's trying to plant a waypoint gate near her settlement, it was a tough battle against him and his new allies
(Flashback: 2 years ago)
Outside of Vigrid
"Kestrel Claw, this is far enough for you" said Ventus as he is accompanied with Bayonetta and a small group of Umbra witches.
Kestrel Claw smirks at the Rouge Uchiha; he is not alone against him, Raven Mcknight and 3 teenagers are with him.
A pale skinned boy with black hair holding a sketch book and pen, he has a fake smile on his face, underneath it is no emotion what so ever. He is Sai, a former ROOT ANBU as he wants to know what emotions feel like.
A teenager with blonde hair with a fringe that covers half his face, he is mistaken as a girl due to his hairstyle and feminine looks. He is Deidara, a former Iwa ninja that specializes in explosives.
The last is a red haired boy; actually he is an adult as his body is a puppet, the only part that's human is his eyes, hair and "Heart". He is Sasori no Akasuna, Suna's talented puppet master and expert of human puppetry.
Ventus glares at Kestrel as he's been stealing from museums and art galleries with his 3 new accomplices for about a year now.
"I know you're trying to find a way to place a waypoint gate near the Umbra witch settlement, and you been stealing artifacts and art pieces from museums around Europe, tell me where you stashed them?" demanded Ventus
"You can fuck off, Uchiha" said Kestrel "They will be good for Lord Naruto when he returns "
"That's not gonna happen" said Ventus as he snap his fingers
Kestrel and the 3 rouge ninjas are now surrounded by Umbra witches and Rouge Uchihas. And to Kestrel's surprise, he sees Sasuke with Sakura, Shikamaru, Shino and Kiba.
"So, the ROTL was not completely eradicated" said Kestrel "When Lord Naruto returns, he'll love to hear this information"
"Not until we deal with it" said Sasuke "I too had information, about those 3 "friends" of yours. Including the one with the black hair"
"And what do you know about me, Sasuke" said the black haired rouge ninja
"Sai; an agent of ROOT, turned rouge when you heard about your parents; you tried to assassinate Danzo when you developed an emotions, hate and anger"
"I'm surprised that you know me" said Sai "That was 5 years ago and that information was classified by the Council"
"We have our ways of gathering information" said Ventus "Including those 2 as well; Sasori Akasuna, assassinated the 3rd Kazekage and turned him into a human puppet. And Deidara of Iwa, you were a terrorist of attempting to assassinate the Tsuchikage.
"That old fool never did appreciate good art" said Deidara
"You call that art?" said the Red haired rouge ninja "Art is eternal, its beauty must be preserved so everyone can observe it"
"I agree" said Kestrel and Sai, and surprisingly Kiba, Shikamaru and Shino.
"WRONG, Art is limited; like a BLAST!" shouts Deidara as he throws a clay bird at Ventus
"Incoming" warns Ventus as he, Sasuke and everyone jumps away from the bird as it goes…
BOOM
The area was engulfed in a blast, as the blast ended and surrounds in smokes. The Rouge Uchihas and Umbra witches were blinded and cough out the smoke out their lungs. As the smoke clears, Kestrel and his 3 rouge ninja friends are gone.
"Damn it, they're gone" said Ventus "Well at least they'll think twice of entering here.
Somewhere in the streets of Vigrid, Kestrel and the 3 rouge ninjas are dashing for their lives.
"You baka" said Sasori "Why did you use your C4 explosions?"
"To prove you wrong" said Deidara
"In your dreams" said Sasori "I've been with you for years and you never won a debate about true art; and when you lose, you throw your frustration by blowing stuff up. Grr, I don't know why I bother taking you with me"
"Because you love me" said Deidara winking at Sasori, causing him to blush.
Kestrel laughs and Sai chuckles at Deidara and Sasori's argument.
"Are they always like that?" said Kestrel to Sai
"Ever since I tagged along with them" said Sai "Come on, let's get something a bite to eat before we head for the harbor."
"Good Idea; all that excitement is making me hungry" said Kestrel "Good thing I stole that Teme Sasuke's wallet during that explosion, he he he"
The 3 rouge ninjas and pirate captain laughs as they stop by a little café to get a bite to eat.
(Flashback ends)
They escaped thanks to Deidara's explosion thought Ventus and still at large in Europe
KNOCK
"Huh, er…enter" said Ventus
The door opens to let some light in to reveal a formal renaissance style office and Shikamaru entering the room.
"Sir Ventus, you need to add some light in" said Shikamaru "It's too troublesome"
"My apologies, Shikamaru" said Ventus "Anyway, what do you need?"
"Kiba and Sakura were bragging about coming to the Soul Society to aid the Reapers against Naruto, I came to deliver the message that if they can come"
"I don't know, the soul society is dangerous, especially when the enemy that will invade it can be ruthless" said Ventus "Plus Sakura's a mother now and I won't forgive myself to see my Great nephew upset to see her dead"
Ventus sighs as he looks at the picture of him, Sasuke, Sakura and a little boy about 3 years old with black hair like Sasuke's and green eyes like Sakura's. The child's name is Daisuke, he was born 3 years ago and a few months after Sasuke went on a search mission to locate the remaining ROTL members and bring them to their base.
"And speaking of my Great nephew, how is he?" said Ventus
"His process is good, what do you expect from a son of an Uchiha" said Shikamaru
"I'm not a vain man, Shikamaru" said Ventus "But I'm glad that little Daisuke is doing great, not to mention that he made great friends"
"Yeah; well I need to go" said Shikamaru "I need to pick up Shiko up from the nursery"
"Wait" said Ventus "I'll go too; Sasuke is busy training his Kyuu Jiki Kenjutsu and Sakura is enhancing her strength that would surpass Tsunade's. The left me to babysit Daisuke until their trainings are done"
"Alright" said Shikamaru as he leaves the room.
Ventus follows the Shadow user and leaves the office; as they are outside, they observe a beautiful village surrounded by stone walls. They are at Monterrigoni in Italy, 500 years ago Ezio fled from Firenze with his family since his father and brothers' were hanged. Ezio used this village as a base to assassinate the Templar until his death. 20 years ago when Ventus left Konoha with 75% of the Uchihas, he made Monterrigoni as a base and new home for his clan. Ventus made the villa of the village his home as he is the patriarch of the Rouge Uchiha clan.
Outside the villa are Shikamaru, Choji and Kiba, they are single fathers 3 years ago, they got drunk last night and bore sons since the women they accidently slept with gave their sons them, along with a few bruises and bumps on their heads after.
Shikamaru's son is called Shiko; like his father he is lazy and a genius, he has brown hair with a little ponytail like Shikamaru's.
Choji's son is called Chojo; unlike Choji, he is skinny and like fruits more than crisps, Choji was confused at Chojo's choice of food but he still likes him and accepts it. He has spiky brown hair and swirls on his cheeks.
Kiba's son is called Koinu, he has Kiba's personality he's kindhearted and nice to his friends. He has messy brown hair and red tribal marks on his cheek.
Ventus chuckles at the reactions from the 3 single father's when they first heard that they had sons 3 years ago. They all said that Shikamatu always said… "Troublesome women".
"Ah, so you are ready to pick up your sons, are you" said Ventus to Kiba and Choji
"Yeah, nursery is nearly over and I need to teach Chojo my clan's jutsus" said Choji
"Me too" said Kiba
"Ditto" said Shikamaru lazily
Ventus chuckles at this and climb down the stone stairs to pick up his great nephew.
"Well, since Sasuke and Sakura are busy, I'll also teach yound Daisuke a trick or 2" said Ventus as he and 3 ROTL members head for the nursery.
Dark Tower: Main Hall
Naruto is just chilling in the hallway; drink Ombré's finest wine while he gazes at the Royal Key in his hand. He grins evilly as he will soon begin war against the Soul Society, once he does that, he'll conquer the rest of the Shinobi nations and then…the World.
From all the conquests he's been through, all the battles he's gone against, he is feeling relaxed that he's having a break.
KNOCK
"Come in" said Naruto
The door opens to reveal Gnarl; he enters the halls and bows in respect to Naruto.
"Milord, Kestrel Claw and his crew has arrived; along with some friends" said Gnarl
"Let him and our new guests in" said Naruto
"Of course" said the elderly minion "You may enter, Captain Claw"
Kestrel enters in the room, with his first mate Raven Mcknight, and the 3 Rouge Ninjas Sai, Deidara and Sasori. Kestrel as grew physically but he's mentally unchanged.
"YO" said Kestrel "Mission accomplished, I managed to place the waypoint gate in Rome but that's the closest I can get near the Umbra Witch Settlement"
"That can wait, I'm glad you arrived in this small matter" said Naruto "I have great news, we're at war"
"WOO HOO!" shouts Kestrel "With whom?"
"The Soul Society" said Naruto "But first, I need to wait for my army to arrive"
"Army?" said Kestrel confused
RUMBLE
The Tower starts to rumble, Kestrel and the 3 Rouge ninja starts to panic.
"What the fuck's going on!" said Kestrel "I return from Europe and this happens"
"So; they arrived" said Naruto smiling as he drinks his wine "Relax and have a glass of wine"
"Thanks" said Sai as he, Deidara and Sasori sat down.
"Now before I go; I would like to know your specialties" said Naruto to the 3 rouge ninjas "What can you do?"
"A rare type of Jutsu of turning drawings into real life" said Sai
"Human Puppetry" said Sasori
"Explosives!" said Deidara with an insane look and tone "BOOM, HAHA HA HA!"
"I apologies to my friend here" said Sasori "He has an obsession with bombs and explosives"
"Did someone say bomb?" said Deidara excitedly as he holds a fuse-box.
"NO!" shouts Sasori, Sai and Kestrel with panic until
BOOM
An explosion engulfs the hall, destroying the furniture and covers Kestrel, Sai, Deidara and Sasori with soot. Naruto is fine as he summoned his minions to shield himself from the explosion.
"That was an interesting demonstration" said Naruto smirking "You're all hired, but tell me what your hobbies are first before I go"
"ART!" said the 3 Rouge Ninja.
"Oh and speaking of art" said Kestrel as he whistles his crew in "Hull it in men"
The KG pirates are hulling in Europe's greatest masterpieces from over 500 years.
"I took the liberty of "borrowing" these pieces of art" said Kestrel "They should be in a place that's more comfortable, consider it a 3 years of birthday presents during my absence in Europe"
"Thank you" said Naruto as he stands up and starts to leave the demolished hallway "I could do for some new furniture in my tower, if you excuse but I have an army to greet. Oh, hi Golbez"
Golbez sees Naruto pass through and sees the hallway demolished.
"Okay, who was it this time" said Golbez
"DEIDARA!" said Kestrel, Sai and Sasori as they point at him
"Oh you all suck" said Deidara pouting
"Your fault for blowing the hallway up and nearly losing our chance of getting a job here" said Sasori
Outside the Tower
Naruto arrives at the balcony to observe the scene, but it's not of his city; he is observing at his new army to pledge war against the Soul Society, his new Reaper army.
The Reapers are wearing white reaper robes and black hollow masks; they are divided in military sections.
One section is the melee; wielding Zanpakuto and Kido knowledge, they even learned how to achieve Bankai and learned Visored techniques.
The second section is the Ranged; wielding Reishi Guns that Naruto stole the plans of them during his mission in the Seireitei. Their speed and accuracy rival the Quincy but their firepower is 10 times powerful and fires 50'000 shots a minute.
The third section is the Mounted; they tame Hollows as their mounts, their speed and strength are used for the reapers' advantage in battle.
And finally the Last section is the Suicide Squad; the Reapers were fused into a parasitic weapon called the Bakotto, a bio weapon that was outlawed by the Soul Society decades ago during the Kasumionji Clan conspiracy years ago. They were considered destroyed when a certain Reaper Captain couldn't resist temptation and took the data about the Bakotto, until Naruto stole that data in his mission. The Bakotto is a powerful weapon but highly dangerous to the wielder, if overused it can consume the wielder.
Naruto grins evilly and his eyes start to glow red as he gazes at the beauty of his new army.
"Magnificent, isn't it?" said a voice as it appears behind him.
"Yes it was" said Naruto as he looks to see Sosuke Aizen "I couldn't help to think but most of them are children, 10 years old I believe"
"Well drastic needs take drastic measures" said Aizen "despite being children, they are incredible killers; including your son and daughter"
Then suddenly 2 masked reapers appear, bowing to Naruto, one is a boy wearing a Diamond shaped mask and the other is a girl wearing an Expressionless mask.
"Lord Naruto" said the Diamond masked reaper
"And you are?" said Naruto
"Well it's been 10 years, and we never met" said the Expessionless masked reaper as she starts to take off her mask "Allow us to introduce ourselves, I am Yami Kurosaki"
"And I am Kage Kuchiki" said the Diamond masked reaper as he removes his mask
"And I am your Son/Daughter" said both of the reapers.
Naruto smiles at them, his 2 new children that he was departed for 10 years now skilled warriors.
"My, you've grown" said Naruto "And how are your mother's?"
"You don't need to ask, Naruto-kun"
Naruto turns to see Rukia and Karin; Rukia's hair changed colour from Raven black to light purple, including her eyes and her pupils slit. She wields a twin bladed scythe and wears a white robe tied to a yellow sash.
Karin is wearing a white reaper robe like the Reaper soldiers; on her back is a bazooka and pistols hoisted on her hips.
"Wow, you all look sexy" said Naruto as he slowly walks towards them "10 years was indeed a long time, and I truly missed you"
"So did we, Naruto-kun" said Karin as she starts to walks towards "I hated every second of waiting to be in your arms again"
"And kiss those lips" said Rukia as she too walk closer to Naruto
The 2 reaper mistresses are getting closer to kiss Naruto and Naruto is too as he wants to kiss them again, when suddenly
"LORD NARUTO/NARUTO-KUN!" shouts the mistresses, generals and councilors when they barge in to see Naruto about to kiss Rukia and Karin.
"Er…is this a bad time?" said Golbez
"Not at all" said Aizen "In fact, you're just in time to observe the glory of the Ombré reaper army"
"AHHHH, ITS AIZEN!" screams Neliel and Grimmjow in fear as they point at Aizen. Ulquiorra didn't scream but he is in fact terrified to see Aizen back from the dead.
"Oh, hello Grimmjow, Neliel and Ulquiorra" said Aizen in his calm tone. "Nice to see you again"
"Er…he he, it's good to see you again too. Lord Aizen" said Neliel nervously.
"Please, don't call me that" said Aizen "I am merely now an ally of the Overlord and you are his mistress."
"Oh, that's good to hear" said Nel in relief.
"What do you mean, AIZEN'S ALIVE!" said Grimmjow still scared shitless. "Who know what he will do after what we did 50 years"
"For once I agree with Grimmjow" said Ulquiorra
"We betrayed him and joined forced with the Overlord"
"Ex-nay on the etray-bay" mutters Grimmjow to Ulquiorra "We do not want to "iss-pay" Aizen off."
Naruto just looks at Grimmjow and starts to laugh at this.
"That's just ancient history" said Aizen "Besides; I'm Naruto debt for saving me"
"YOU SAVED HIM?" screams Grimmjow as tears pour down from his eyes.
"Yeah, back in the Eternal war" said Naruto "Anyway, we have important matters to discuss; allow me to introduce to my new mistresses"
Naruto presents Rukia and Karin as they bow in respect to the Generals, Mistresses and Councilors of Ombré.
"I am Rukia Kuchiki" said Rukia
"And I am Karin Kurosaki" said Karin
"Well, looks like you were busy in that mission at the Soul Society" said Kyuubi smirking at Naruto "And you say that we need to control your urges"
"Well…he he he, it not like I went on a rampage during the lack of sex" said Naruto "And you know I couldn't resist a beautiful woman at my sight, 2 of them to be precise"
"Aw, thank you" said Rukia and Karin as they both kiss Naruto's cheek.
"And the best part it is that they are sisters of Byakuya and Ichigo" said Naruto smirking.
"You always fuck your enemies sisters, don't you" said Grimmjow laughing as he refers to Hana and Itomé.
"So?" said Naruto
"I can't wait to see the look on Kurosaki-teme's face that he has a niece" laughs Grimmjow as he imagines his nemesis's expression when he sees Yami.
"That can be arranged" said Naruto "Now let's continues this wonderful conversation in the military room. A war must be planned"
Military Room
Naruto, along with his mistresses, generals and councilors arrive at the military room. Aizen enters along with the 2 Reaper mistresses and the 2 young masked reapers. Naruto sat down near the table while the others surround it.
"I apologies that I can't take you to the main hall" said Naruto "It's been refurbished; now it's time for the war strategies"
Naruto snaps his fingers as a holographic image of the Soul Society appears on the table.
"As you know the soul society is split into 2 sections; the Rukongai and the Seireitei" said Naruto "The Seireitei is protected by a wall made of Sekki-sekki so penetrating it will be complicated"
"Don't worry" said Aizen "Thanks to the data that you stole from the research and development institute, I discovered the plans of a weapon that could penetrate through Sekki-sekki."
"That's one problem sorted" said Naruto "We'll split the army in 2 waves, the 2nd wave is the ranged and 1st wave is the mounted and melee"
"And the Suicide Squad?" said Aizen
"They come later when we breach the Seireitei" said Naruto
"Er Naruto, I have a request" said Grimmjow
"Yes?" said Naruto
"I would like to recruit the Arrancars in the battlefield" said Grimmjow "And plus, let me in on the fun, I want a rematch against Kurosaki-teme"
"I wouldn't dream of leaving my Arrancar army unoccupied" said Naruto "And I was thinking of letting them in"
"Cheers" said Grimmjow
"I'll go too" said Neliel "I have a score to settle with Ichigo for abandoning me to die by Aizen 50 years ago. Er, no offence, Aizen"
"None taken" said Aizen
"Neliel and, once again Grimmjow are right" said Ulquiorra "Aizen created the Arrancars to surpass the reapers. Not using us would be a waste"
"I know" said Naruto "And Nel-chan, you can come to the soul society. So you can keep me company"
"What are we, chopped liver?" said Rukia
"What about us?" said Karin
"I didn't forget you" said Naruto "If it weren't for you 2 reaper beauties, I wouldn't succeeded on my mission"
Rukia and Karin blushes at what Naruto said; Naruto stands up as he is now satisfied at the plan of conquering the Soul Society.
"So it's settled" said Naruto "We'll march towards the soul society in a week, Aizen will prepare a Senkaimon by then."
"I'll work on it right away" said Aizen as he starts to leave.
"Grimmjow, Ulquiorra; assemble the Arrancars and train them hard, I want every one ready till then" said Naruto
"Hai" said Grimmjow and Ulquiorra as they too leave the military room.
"And meeting his adjourned" said Naruto "Dismissed"
Everyone leaves the military room, well not everyone; Naruto and his mistresses are still there.
"So, shall we have some fun?" said Naruto
"In the military room?" said Itomé
"Why not, it makes this war more…thrilling" said Naruto seductively at his 16 mistresses.
"Oh you are naughty" said Anko smirking at the Overlord.
"Well, show we?" said Naruto
The only answer Naruto got is being piled by his mistresses.
"Let's get some privacy" said Naruto as he summons a brown minion "Close the door and leave"
"Yes master" said the brown as it leaves the military room and closes the door. It then takes a peep through the key hole to see Naruto having a major orgy with his 16 mistresses. Until it starts to scream as it's engulfed into black flames.
"AND NO PEEPING, YOU PERVERTED IMP!" shouts Naruto angrily at the pile of ash that was once a brown minion
"Relax, Naruto-kun" said Kyuubi behind the Overlord and caresses his now bare chest.
"That's right" said Itomé as she kisses Naruto's cheek "Don't spoil this moment for our 2 new lovers"
"Sorry" said Naruto "Now, where were we?"
Naruto and his 16 mistresses are having fun in the military room, causing the tower and Ombré to rumble violently.
"AHH, NARUTO-KUN!" scream all 16 mistresses in the wind.
The 3 Artist Nin's workshop
The 3 rouge ninjas or they call themselves "the 3 Artist Nin" are busy doing their art pieces. Sai is sketching he naked form of Sasori since he is just a walking mannequin to him while Deidara is sculpting him on a big block of marble.
"I don't know why you chose me as a model" said Sasori
"Because you're just a mannequin" said Sai "And I you don't have a penis"
"Said a penis obsessed ninja" said Deidara as he taps the chisel on the marble
"Well at least I don't have a puppet fetish" said Sai as he continues sketching on his pad.
Deidara and Sasori blushes at this; Sai knows about their relationship ever since he hang out with them. Then the workshop starts to rumble, causing the 3 Artist Nins to seize and looks around.
"What the fuck is going on?" said Sasori
"Well I heard that the Overlord is very frisky with his mistresses" said Sai "So frisky that he literally rocks the world"
"Lucky bastard" said Sasori "I'm stuck with the girly bomber here"
"What's wrong with me?" said Deidara
"What's right with you?" said Sasori raising his eyebrow "You ruin all our heists with your insane explosions"
"I was expressing my art" said Deidara
"No, you were being a BAKA!" shouts Sasori
"Err, I think I forgot something at the tower" said Sai nervously as he quickly leaves the workshop.
"YOU WANT A FIGHT?" shouts Deidara as he pulls out his C4 putty.
"No, I want you to GROW UP!" shouts Sasori as a scorpion-like tail pops out from his puppet ass and strikes at Deidara.
BOOM
Sai eavesdrop at the little fight through the keyhole outside the workshop. Dust forms up as the Iwa bomber and the Suna puppet master are in a little fight.
"3.2.1" said Sai
"You never appreciate my taste in art" said Deidara's voice inside the workshop
"Oh shut up and kiss me, you blonde baka" said Sasori's voice also inside the workshop.
"And it's over" said Sai as he starts to leave the area and ignoring the lustful moans inside the workshop "I need a drink"
Monterrigoni: Uchiha Villa
Ventus has summoned his nephew Sasuke and some ROTL members along: Shikamaru, Choji, Sakura, Kiba and Rock Lee are all bowing to the Uchiha patriarch.
"Now that you're here" said Ventus "I have an announcement for you all. Byakuya requested our assistance."
"But how will we enter the Soul Society as it's a spiritual realm" said Sakura.
3 years were good to the pink haired Kunoichi, her body has developed and her hair remains short. She still wears her red battle dress and black shorts underneath but she wears black fingerless gloves to protect her knuckles as she creates devastating punches that would bring Tsunade's to shame. Her strength grew thanks to the training from Rock Lee and Sasuke.
Sasuke and Sakura are now married, thanks to Ventus as the minister of the wedding. She bore a child named Daisuke, she thought that her dreams came true but she is not sure right now. She did love Sasuke but he was just a high school crush when she was a genin. They are happy together but Sakura is confused of if she made the right decision.
Ventus chuckles at his niece-in-law and stood up from his desk.
"Byakuya created a Senkaimon that will convert our physical body into reishi. How did Ichigo enter the soul society with his friends when they were humans" said Ventus "He'll arrive in a moment"
And then a Japanese style door appears in the room and opens up to reveal Byakuya. He exits the door and bows to Ventus.
"Ventus" said Byakuya "It is ready"
"Alright" said Ventus "Let's go"
"But uncle, who will take care of the village and Daisuke?" said Sasuke concerned about his son
"I left Cecil and Firion watch over the village" said Ventus "And don't worry about the children, because I assigned Gai and Jiraiya to babysit them when we return"
Sasuke then starts to shudder at the thought of his son wearing green spandex and doing the "Flames of Youth" pose in the sunset.
"Are you sure, that's wise?" said Sasuke "I don't want them corrupting Daisuke"
"Relax" said Ventus placing his hand on his nephew's shoulder "They will take care of him; let's go"
The 2 Uchihas and a group of ROTL members enter the Senkaimon with Byakuya to enter the Soul Society.
Soul Society: Squad 1 Barracks
Byakuya arrives back to the Soul Society with Ventus, Sasuke and the ROTL group. The Reapers from Squad 1 salutes to their Head Captain and his guests.
"Welcome back, Head Captain Kuchiki" said a Squad 1 reaper.
"Take our guests to their rooms" said Byakuya "And treat well as they are my guests and allies"
"Hai, Head Captain" said the reaper "This way please"
The ROTL groups and Sasuke follow the reaper that escorts them to their rooms. Ventus stays to discuss about the incoming war against Naruto.
"You know a few of us won't make a difference to the scale of your army" said Ventus
"I didn't ask you as recruits" said Byakuya "I need you to train them how to use Jutsus."
"It will be complicated" said Ventus "And time is not on our side, we never know when Naruto will strike"
"A think it'll be a week" said Byakuya "With Aizen as his ally, forging a Senkaimon will take a week, especially when it'll take a whole army here"
"And we have no time to waste" said Ventus "Let's begin immediately"
"Before we do, I need to introduce you to the other captains" said Byakuya "I'll make a meeting immediately"
"Please do" said Ventus as he starts to sigh. Another war, I don't know why I bother getting involved into conflicts against evil. I fled the Shinobi Nations to make a sanctuary for my Clan.
Ombré: 3 days ago
Naruto is watching his new reaper army train with the Arrancars, metal clangs echoes in the barracks of Ombré. He watches it at the balcony of the Dark Tower with Rukia and Karin by his sides and Neliel behind him and wraps her arms around him.
"It's magnificent" said Naruto
"10 years they trained hard to please their master" said Rukia "We even trained our children as well"
"They're not joining the army, are they?" said Naruto
"Kage and Yami aren't ordinary children" said Karin "They are prodigies when it come to the sword and firearms. They can even defeat a captain-class reaper or Espada-class Arrancar with no problem.
Ombré barracks
And they are right, Kage and Yami was sparing with Grimmjow and Ulquiorra in their Resurrection form. Grimmjow is in a form of a white armoured anthromorphic panther with a long light blue mane and sharp claws and Ulqiorra now has giant black bat-like wings. Even in full power, the 2 Espadas are no match against the 2 young masked Reapers.
"I can't believe I was defeated by a couple of kids" said Grimmjow panting of exhaustion
"They are Lord Naruto's children" said Ulquiorra also panting exhaustion "They show true potential; they would make excellent Overlords"
BANG
Yami fires her Reishi bazooka at the 2 Espadas, the blast rivals a hollow's or even an Arrancar's Cero
"OH SHIT!" panics Grimmjow until
BOOM
The area is engulfed by the blast, disintegrating everything in its path. Grimmjow and Ulquiorra survived the blast, but they are badly hurt.
"That was…*cough* epic" said Grimmjow weakly as he collapses to unconsciousness.
If we didn't cancel the blast with our Cero, we would've been killed thought Ulquiorra as he drops to his knees and collapses to unconsciousness 10 years old and they are real killers
Yami took off her mask and blows the smoke from the barrel of her Reshi Bazooka and straps it on her back.
"Sister that was uncalled for" said Kage "This is a sparing match, not a battle to the death"
"Sorry, I couldn't help it" said Yami sheepishly
"Hn, don't worry about it" said Kage "They're Espada, strongest of the Arrancar, especially the one with the pale skin and helmet-like maske fragment"
"But what does he have a gothic style tattoo of the number 4?" said Yami
"Aizen-sensei said that Espadas are ranked in the numbers of 10 due to their strengths and lethality. He has the number 4 became he is the 4th strongest of the Espada"
"Wow" said Yami "He is strong"
"Yep" said Kage until he sense someone "Show yourself"
Hayate and Yugao appear from the shadows; Kage and Yami stares at them.
"What do you want?" said Kage
"Lord Naruto wanted us to test your skills" said Hayate "He want see if…*cough*…you are capable of entering this war"
"Is that so" said Kage as starts to see Yami take out her bazooka. "Yami, let me fight him; you showed your skills, let me show mine"
"Shall we begin?" said Hayate as he draws out Zangetsu
"Hai" said Kage as he draws out his sword "Rise, Muramasa!"
A flash of light engulfs the area, blinding the sickly Ombré agent for a short time until he sees someone with Kage. He is a middle-aged man with a goatee, long messy hair and shades; he wears a black coat that waves around like fire. In his hand is a sword similar to Hayate's Zangetsu.
"Z-Zangetsu?" said Hayate in shock
"Hai" said Zangetsu "forgive but I have no choice but to fight you"
"What is this?" said Hayate
"This is the power of my Zanpakuto" said Kage "it's called Muramasa, it can summon the spirit of my enemy's weapon and use them against them. It once belonged to by Great Uncle Koga Kuchiki but he died when his attempt to destroy the Soul Society failed. Mother told me about the Zanpakuto Spirit rebellion 50 years ago, and I started to admire him for it. Muramasa waited for a worthy wielder to claim it until I cam to claim this wonderful craftsmanship of a sword."
"I see" said Hayate "Then I have to fight my own weapon as well"
"Metaphorically yes" said Kage as he poses a offensive stance "Let's dance"
A Kage and Hayate charge to clash blades against each other, their battle has begun.
CLANG
Dark Tower
Up on the balcony, Naruto is observing the spar of Kage and Hayate, he is now impressed at his Zanpakuto's abilities.
"Quite impressive" said Naruto "I never saw a technique from any Zanpakuto, and I've been in the Soul Society for 3 years"
"Kage-kun found Muramasa at the age of 5" said Rukia "I was shocked as I remember the rebellion of the Zanpakuto spirits; I never knew the spirit of Sode no Shirayuki was so beautiful.
"It a blade is beautifully crafted, so is the spirit" said Naruto as he turns to look at his Sword Kuroi Kitsune, formally known as De la Zorro. "I would like to spar with him sometime"
"That is one of Kage-kun's ambitions" said Rukia "He wants to fight you and win"
"Well then" said Naruto "He just has to train extra hard if he wants to surpass me"
Rukia chuckles at her Overlord lover as she rests her head on his shoulder while they watch their some spar against an Ombré Agent.
Ombré barracks
"YAH!" shouts Kage as he knocks Hayate's sword off his hand and got a slash on the back from the spirit form of Zangetsu.
Hayate drops on one knee and crouches in a defeated pose as Muramasa is by his neck.
"Do you yield?" said Kage coldly
"I yield" said Hayate "For now; you are an impressive swordsman, Kage-sama"
"I trained hard" said Kage "I wanted to challenge father to a duel and surpass him"
"So you can be Overlord?" said Hayate
"No, I just want to surpass him as a powerful warrior" said Kage "My mother told me stories about him; how he destroyed Konoha, defeated the Sanbi, won the Eternal war and blessed by the dark god Chaos who gave him the title "Dark Saint". He is inspiration of being an all powerful warrior"
Hayate chuckles as he got up on his feet, he winced a bit from the wound on his back but ignores it as he looks at Kage.
"Keep that dream alive," said Hayate "Eventually you will fight him and surpass him. In fact, Lord Naruto wanted to see your swordsmanship to see if you are indeed worthy of challenging you. And guess what, you are added in his list of rivals"
Kage couldn't help but smile at this, to him means that his father is proud of him and impressed.
Dark Tower
And Naruto was indeed impressed at his son, but he never knew that he would have a son for a rival. He has heard of sibling rivalry but not rivalry between father and son. This will be quite interesting to the Overlord as he might challenge his son to a duel after winning the war against the Soul Society.
First Rock Lee and now my son; this is really getting interesting thought Naruto with a grin on his face.
Soul Society: Seireitei
Ventus is at the meeting room of the Captains of the 13 court guard squads. All 13 captains bow in respect to their humble guest. Ever since Naruto infiltrated the Soul Society and the betrayal of Rukia Kuchiki and Karin Kurosaki, Byakuya elected new captains to fill in for Squad 7, 12 and 13. He didn't replace Ikkaku because he was luckily saved and resurrected by Captain Orihime Inoue's powers, this pleased Ikkaku's squad and thanked her for saving him. Before his resurrection, he did meet Zaraki in a spirit realm called Valhalla and fought him there.
Kakashi Hatake took seat as Captain of Squad 7, for his skills as Shinobi and unique talents. Personally he accepted the seat because he is glad to see his former sensei and father figure, Captain Minato Namikaze.
Orochimaru the Snake Sannin took seat as Captain of Squad 12 for his intellect, Byakuya didn't like him but it was a personally request from former Captain Mayuri Kurotsuchi. Kurotsuchi and Orochimaru have a lot in common and this makes the Head Captain shudder.
Hiruzen Sarutobi took seat as Captain of Squad 13 for his wisdom, Ukitake requested him to be captain because when Sarutobi died, he and Ukitake became good friends. He even made friends with Former Captain Leonardo Da Vinci when he takes a day off in the Rukon District and escape from *shudder* paperwork. No matter in the afterlife, Paperwork will always be there to taunt the former Hokage.
"Greetings, Ventus" said Sarutobi "I'm glad to see you again"
"Me too, Sarutobi-sama" said Ventus in respect, he always respected Sarutobi when he was Hokage and he will always do when he is now Captain of Squad 13.
"Still humble and respectful as ever" said Sarutobi "You were one of the candidates of being Hokage"
"Shame that you didn't become one due to that feud in your clan" said Minato "Otherwise, you would've made a great Hokage"
"Thanks Minato" said Ventus "But I'm not here for a visit; Naruto is planning a war in the soul society"
Minato and Sarutobi were sad at this; the person they cared for is an enemy to them.
"That's right" said Byakuya "Ventus, along with his nephew and the ROTL members are here to help us train"
"Kukukuku, so Sasuke is here in the Soul Society" said Orochimaru "That is good news"
"You keep your forked tongue away from him, snake" said Ventus venomously at the former Sannin. Alive or dead, Ventus never liked Orochimaru as he looks evil…whom he is.
"Oh I wouldn't dream of it" said Orochimaru "He is of no use to me now that I'm dead"
"Dead or not, stay away from him" said Ventus "You were responsible of giving him that cursed seal. I can only seal its dark power but I'm not sure how long it will hold"
"You are a fool of sealing it" said Orochimaru "Haven't you heard the saying "Fight fire with fire". It's the only way of defeating that Over-brat"
"But that victory would go in vain when Sasuke might take over as Overlord if he used the cursed seal against Naruto" said Ventus. "There must be a way of defeating him"
"Give it up" said Orochimaru "Each conquest will make him stronger; not even Sasuke can defeat him now"
"Your defeatism sickens me, snake" said Ventus
"Says the peace loving Uchiha" said Orochimaru
"THAT'S IT, YOU'RE DEAD!" shouts Ventus as he starts to charge at the former Sannin for the kill but restrained by Minato and Kakashi.
"Ventus get a hold of yourself;" said Minato
"Let me go, Minato" said Ventus with his Mongeykyo Sharinganflaring.
"That's enough, Ventus!" shouts Byakuya at Ventus, causing him to deactivate his eyes.
"Forgive me" said Ventus as he looks away "That was uncalled for"
"You are forgiven" said Byakuya "This is not the time to argue as the enemy will approach at the end of the week since Aizen will create a Senkaimon there. Our guests will be assigned to Squads: Kiba Inuzuka will go to Squad 6 to assist Captain Abarai; Shikamaru Nara will go to Squad 10 to assist Captain Hitsugaya, Sakura Haruno will go to Squad 4 to assist Captain Inoue. Rock Lee will go to Squad 8 to assist Captain Sado, Choji Akamichi will go to Squad 11 to assist Captain Madarame, Shino Aburame will be at Squad 2 to assist Captain Auditore and finally Sasuke Uchiha will assist Captain Kurosaki at Squad 5. Ventus will be at my squad to train the new recruits that I got from the Rukon District"
"Did you evacuate everyone out from the Rukon district?" said Ventus
"We're working on it" said Byakuya "We can only get about 40% of the populations as the rest are stubborn and mostly bandits, murderers and rapists"
"I see" said Ventus "I will tell my Nephew and his friends about this"
"Understood" said Byakuya as he watches Ventus leave "And good luck"
Dark Tower: Throne Room
Naruto is sitting on his throne, drinking a glass of Ombré's best wine. It won't take long for the big day.
"It won't take long now" said Naruto as he takes a sip of his glass of wine.
