Uchiha Saviour

by Oxy27

The Uchiha are a once great clan that have fallen from grace. They need a leader to guide them once again, A Saviour. They will rise from the ashes of the past and rise up once again. (Heavy AU) (Alive Uchiha Clan)

12. Epitome of Strength

Hey, Glad you came back to see 12 chapters of this. Hope you like what you're reading, don't be shy to drop a review. Just know, I will focus on this story untill I get out of this war arc and to the canon timeline just a little.

Now, Boruto chapter 80. Were are the leaks! I only saw that Boruto gets summoned to the Ototsuki god realm and he fights Sasuke. I've seen some theories. Some say Naruto and Hinata will train in that deminsion Kawakii sealed them in. Don't know how since he said timie was frozen and they wouldn't age or die. Ohhh! Now I i see. They in the hyperbolic time chamber. I just really want to know what Sarada's MS is or why is she immune to Eida's power. There are so many questions I have about her. in case you didn't know, I am a huge Sarada fan, love that girl.

But that Naruto storm connections looks just like storm 4 not go lie. I seen the new combos so that's good, but we could have gotten a totally new game. like where is our open world Naruto game. something like Shinobi striker and we can travel to other villages. Like Howarts Legacy.

mattypatty440- Actually know this guy from work. He also makes music, yall should go listen to it. (##mattypatty Apple music/spoitfy/soundcloud)

ayrton7-How? How am I going to add Eida and Delta? Even if I didn't make them robots, They would not be as strong and I would have to wank them

volcasiron30- Belive me, I did think about just letting Naori go to the main land and merk everyone, but that would end the whole arc and kill my plot. She's to strong for any of the others to handle right now. And this war arc is really for the kids and younger generation, that's why they are more fleshed out and the main focus.

Racan-Yea, I was really holding out on the Hashirama cells LOL. But it's all just a matter of time now.

Dark Sage Void- A brother, Naruto is going to be 1 in the verse when I'm done. DMS Kamui should tell you all you need to know.

DarcYen- Thank you, and sorry about bringing others from different anime, at the time. I didn't know the greatness in making on OC. When done right, you can actually make someone great and loveable. And I have discovered it. At the time, I didn't like OC but now I do. When you bring someone from a different anime, you already know about that person, their past, and how strong they are. so people get upset when you start to change things to match the setting. But when you make an OC, you have a blank canvas.

The Faceless Wordsmith- Yea, Naori is someone I've come to love. Just the beauty in writing I guess.

Alexander4443-Thank you

SelvariA01- You caught me LOL, BO1 when Mason and Woods break out from prison

Because I have been forgetting, I don't own anything I may use. I should probably go back and fix all the other chapters or i'm gonna get charged.

(WARNING before you read. This chapter is brutal and an HEAVY AU! Like I said before, this is an AU. this chapter is a make or break

Now, let the story...begin!

---

Naruto for some reason felt at peace with himself at this very moment. There was no turmoil in his heart, no dark side trying to corrupt him into giving into hatred or anything like that. In fact, he felt as if he had won!

The greatest battle that he was constantly fighting had finally come to an end. There was no longer any hatred in his heart as he learned to accept himself for who he truly was. Unlike how his dad had told him that love was the counter to hate. And love would free him when the time came. He found peace in accepting himself. He found peace in defeating himself.

Drifting in a sea of darkness Naruto could not tell where he was. This felt like the time he had that one nightmare about killing everyone. He didn't want to experience that again, it was hell. But that left a question.

"A question I can answer for you." A motherly voice sounded in his ears, reassuring him everything would be okay.

"Who's there?" Naruto asked as he reached behind his back for a weapon but only gripped at the air. Even his kunai pouch was gone, leaving him with just his hands which was okay in his book.

That is when the darkness in his view began to be replaced with color and his world was flipped upside down.

When he opened his eyes again, he was left speechless and mind blank. What greeted his vision was a view many painters would kill for.

The sky was blue and white clouds still floated above illuminated by a bright sun and all. But sitting underneath the sky was a very very large mountain. Its tip was covered in white snow that gently rested, unbothered by the breeze flowing in the air.

In front of the mountain were smaller less imposing sharp hills that went off as baby mountains that were still rocky and green. A crystal clear lake showed the reflection of the mountain giving proof of how clean and pure the water was. Surrounding the bountiful lake were sakura trees with their pink petals floating in the wind.

What a truly beautiful place to be and he couldn't stop the amazement from showing on his young face. He reached down and touched the soft green grass that enveloped his hand in a hug.

"This place, I can feel it, and even smell it." The place smelled like a forest with hints of sweetness. "The amount of chakra here is unreal. If someone could absorb the chakra from this place…they could change everything."

"Always one to see the benefits in things. That's something I like about you, Naruto-kun." That voice which was clearly female or an older woman came again. They let an angelic giggle escape their lips as they found amusement in the situation.

"You know me?" Naruto asked on edge and getting ready should someone launch an attack on him.

His eyes widened as he felt slender arms wrap around his neck and raven-black hair trace down his shoulders. The skin was pale much like his own and he could feel mounds of flesh pressing against his chest, letting him know the gender of this Mature Woman.

"Oh, how I've longed to meet you, my child."

"My child? This is not my mother."

"Who are you? And why do you call me your child? You are not my Mother." Naruto said with a bit of anger in his tone. He did not take disrespect about his mother lightly and would dish out punishment to anyone who would dare offend her.

"Silly, I am the Mother of all Uchiha." The woman let him go and floated around so Naruto could finally take in the speaker. "I am the Mother of all volcanoes and am known as the Blossoming Princess."

What Naruto saw indeed was a woman, an older woman who looked to be the same age as his mother. She possessed hair that flowed down her backside and princess-style bangs covering the side and front of her pale and peerless skin.

Looking into those loving charcoal eyes of hers made him stur inside as she looked at him with motherly affection and maybe something more. Her outfit was elegant and fit which help boost her godlike appearance. It was a black kimono with red lining on the edges as it was all tied by a red and black obi. In the center of this was a flower with sakura leaves as petals.

"Come my child." She waved her finger pulling Naruto into her embrace with some unknown force that felt like chakra. She stroked his hair softly with a warm smile. "This goddess will answer any of your questions, as I know you have a lot."

Naruto didn't know how to feel right now. He was in some strange place being touched by a woman saying she was the mother of all Uchiha and volcanoes. He was really confused to say the least.

"Are you a God for real?"

"I am. My name is Sengen, Sengan Uchiha."

"Can you show me your sharingan?"

"Okay!" She gave a chipper reply and the next second he knew Naruto was looking into the red eyes of the Sharingan. Three tomoe and all. But this was just the basic form, did she not have anything beyond that?

Sengen could turn them on and off, which meant she did not steal these eyes and they were truly hers. But he was having a hard time believing all of this. He was in the arms of a Goddess.

"Now do you believe me?" She asked, still playful as she leaned down to give Naruto a better view of her eyes.

"Not really, but I suppose you aren't a thief of our clan's eyes." Naruto said leaning away from the womans contact. Making her give a cute pout. "What do you mean by, you are the mother of all Uchiha?"

Sengen cleared her throat and somehow summoned a bottle of water in her hand. "Like many other gods, you all prayed to me and asked for power. Similar to how Uzumaki worshiped the Shinigami, you all worshiped me. And in return, you are blessed with the eyes you possess now." She stopped to see if the boy was following and had any questions.

"But I read that the Sharingan was from the Sage of Six Paths. And we are all his descendants." Naruto gave the knowledge he had learned from Madara's journal. The man was smart and dug deep into the teachings of the world. Which leads him to uncover some big secrets.

"True, but where do you think he got it from? That he was angry and it just popped into his head." Segen released Naruto but not all the way as she locked their arms together and began to walk on the lakeside. "The Sage was struck with grief after discovering his girlfriend had been killed due to his mother. In his depressed state, he wandered around the world until he came close to a certain mountain that looked just like that." Pointing a finger at the mountain in the distance, she kept walking. "That mountain is known as Mount Fuji. I hope you find it in the future."

"The man was tired and fell to his knees begging for anything, for someone to answer his call. So I did. And after hearing the man out, I blessed him with the Sharingan which later evolved into the Rinnegan. But that's for later." Sengan waved the important details aside which Naruto wanted to know more about. But all of this news was such an eye-opener for him.

"I have a question?"

"Yes?"

"How did you answer the call? Did you descend from the heavens?"

"No silly, I can't do that." Sengen gave an angelic laugh. "It's against the law set by Kami-sama. So since I couldn't leave, I just brought the guy here, My personal dimension."

"Kami-sama? The Goddess of life? She's real too?" Naruto asked in disbelief.

"Yup, and her two other sisters." Sengen said.

"Wow, I'm shocked. This is all hard to take in." Naruto looked up at the rosy sky. How would he explain this to everyone when he got back? He had met their goddess! The word had to be spread.

"But let's get back to the story," Sengen said. "Since you seem to know so much already thanks to that journal of yours, I won't bore you with the other small details. But anyways, the man passed on the knowledge about the volcano to his descendants who all returned to give thanks and all the other good deeds, like offerings, prayers, and even well wishes."

Sengen waved her hand in the air and a memory of his mother and father popped up. They were in the Naka Shrine on their knees praying. "Things like this happened all the time, it became an occurrence for people to come to this shrine the clan built for me and pray. Your parents prayed the most for my blessing, showing up twice a day wishing for a healthy child." She finished with a soft smile looking at the child she was locking arms with still.

"Mother and Father, prayed for me?" Naruto asked surprised.

"All the time."

"I'm grateful that they cared about me so much." Naruto closed his eyes with a soft smile on his face. And tears stinging the corner of his eyes. "Thank you Sengen-sama, for everything you've done for the clan over the years."

The goddess's cheeks turned red and she turned away and poked her fingers. "Oh, Naruto-kun. You needn't thank me. I was just doing what any benevolent god would."

"But I must, for all the Uchiha's, I thank you." Naruto cupped his hands and bowed at the waist. "My Goddess." He said with heartfelt words and honesty.

Sengen turned back smiling still keeping a rosy blush. "Well when you have the best children, You'd do anything for them." Sengen locked arms with Naruto who didn't put up a struggle this time and continued their walk. "But Like I was saying. I am Sengen, a Goddess. I gift every Uchiha who has the potential to awaken the Mangekyo Sharingan their ability since they all stem from me. This is why, I only have this base Sharingan as you saw earlier."

"So are you saying you've run out of abilities to give? And that is why you only have the base Sharingan?"

"No, I only have the base Sharingan because all my kids have my eyes. The unique pattern you hold is the same pattern I would have. So I just gift them to you."

Naruto was now starting to understand. Sengan could use all the abilities of the Mangekyo Sharingan and everyone's unique abilities, which were all rooted from her.

This meant she could use Kamui, Elemental Clone, Amaterasu, and all the rest. It was amazing. "You are amazing Sengen-sama. To be able to use all of the clan's abilities. You must be a capable fighter."

Inside, Segen squealed. But on the outside, she only coughed in her hand. "Well, of course, I am a master of all Uchiha powers."

As the mortal and god walked and talked, Naruto learned more and more about the history of his clan and even more things about Sengen. The woman really loved to talk about herself Naruto figured out. As they walked, Naruto noticed the woman had an Uchiha crest on the back of her robe which made him smile. In this dimension, Naruto learned that the animals here were the same as on Earth and so were the trees.

But now they stood on top of the mountain, overlooking Sengen's domain. The wind blew and whistled past his ears.

"Now unfortunately, You have to go back." Sengen's voice sounded sad as she looked back toward Naruto.

"It's fine, I didn't think I could be here forever. But will I be able to come back and see?" Naruto asked.

Sengen again squealed inside her mind. "He wants to come and see me again! Oh Kami-sama." After her inner excitement, she calmed down and answered Naruto's question. "No you can't come here by yourself, I have to bring you here, or when you die you come here."

"I see." Naruto gained a thoughtful expression as his mind began to come up with questions, one of them revolving around Kamui. As Naruto fell his Goddess hugged him again and his head pushed into her chest making him wonder why older women always did this to him.

"Remember to pray to me Naruto-kun, and spread the word about your Goddess. But you will need a priestess once again, If you wish to talk to me or come back to this place."

"Where can I find a Priestess?"

"She has already been chosen and begun to train for the position, You will know when the time comes." Sengen gave Naruto important information that would help further the clan. "Now goodbye and stay strong my gifted child as I gave you the greatest Mangekyou Ability."

As Naruto began to fade, he gave the woman a grateful smile. "Yes, Kamui has helped me much."

Sengen shook her head. "Ask to see your Mother's ability, Good Luck! Love you!"

Naruto luckily heard the last words of his Goddess before he faded from view.

---

Naruto blinked his eyes before he opened them. At first, his vision was blurry and fuzzy. His eyes soon then got adjusted to the sunlight piercing through the white curtains. Looking around to check his surroundings, he noticed that this was a hospital room.

Naruto propped himself on his forearms and got a clear view of the room. Next to his bed a couple of feet away, was Esdeath lying asleep in a hospital gown just like him.

"Brother Naruto, You're finally up." Naruto's eyes moved to Jinkusu who was sitting in the shadow of the room holding his tachi which was twenty-four inches long. The boy quickly got up and walked over to Naruto's bedside with a worried expression. "Are you feeling okay?"

"Yes actually, better than ever." And that was for sure. Due to the Hashirama cells Naruto implanted into his body, he had been healed phenomenally. He could see better, and his chakra capacity and density had also improved. Even his body felt tougher. "My power has also increased."

"Great." Jinkusu then brought Naruto into a hug as Naruto returned. "We were all so worried about you, it's been three days and you didn't wake up." Jinkusu released the hug and wiped the tears on the edge of his eyes.

"Three days? What was I doing?" Naruto asked in shock.

"From what it looks like, growing. You are bigger in height and muscle. The medical ninja working on you said your chakra was rising and getting adjusted to your body." Jinkusu gripped and poked at Naruto's much broader shoulders and leaner biceps.

"Yea, Or do I only look big to you because you're much smaller." Naruto took the chance to joke with his brother.

"Whatever, just wait till puberty comes. I'll be bigger than you could dream of." Jinkusu rolled his eyes, but smiled nonetheless. It was good having his brother back as his spirit felt much lighter already. Jinkusu then pulsed his chakra which was felt by Naruto.

"Why did you do that?"

"Your-"

"Son!"

Before the boy could finish his sentence, Naruto was wrapped in a bone-crushing hug. "Naruto I'm so glad you are okay. Do you know how worried I was about you?" Naruto could feel his mother's tears drop onto his face as she plastered kisses all along his face while giving off happy laughs.

"Mother, You can stop now." Naruto said smiling as he just enjoyed the hug from his beloved mother.

All Naori did was pull her head back and smile down at him cheerfully. "Naru-chan, I'm so glad you are okay. I thought I lost you forever." She couldn't help herself and hugged Naruto again. Her son was alive and well.

Naruto took in his mother's appearance. Her normally well-kept hair was disheveled and looked to be falling out. He could also see tiny strands of gray hair, combined with the bags under her eyes painted a nasty-looking picture of his mother.

"Mom." Naruto softly said grabbing Naori's attention.

"Yes, what is it son?"

"You haven't been taking care of yourself. Your hair's a mess. You haven't even been sleeping enough." Naruto still held that soft tone as he spoke lovingly to his mother. His fingertips moved down her ruff purple hair. "You have to take better care of yourself."

The tears in Naori's eyes boiled up and spilled from her eyes as she hugged Naruto again. "How can I sleep when my precious son was missing? None of that mattered to me, I just needed you to be okay."

She said, voice shaky. "But it's fine now, your back and safe with me."

Inside, He felt terrible. He caused his mother this much pain and it was eating away at him. Naruto was supposed to protect his mom and make sure she stayed in good health at all times. That is a lesson his father taught him. She was the only mother he had, after all, there was no replacement for her. Even Sengen, Mother of All Uchiha, was just a Goddess to him. Only one person could hold the spot of his Mother.

"But what happened to you? Why are you all big now?" Naori observed as she looked at her son who seemed much more lively and healthy. He filled out more and even bulked up a bit. "I don't like it! Age back down, it feels like I missed out on your life!" Naori whined as she took Naruto in a rocking hug while waterfall tears ran from her eyes.

"It must be a side effect of the Hashirama cells. To think the impact would be so profound. Who knows what might have happened if I'd taken the full vile." Naruto thought in great alarm. But he loved the power boost he gained from these cells, it was to die for.

He was going to tell his mother about this. He looked around the room to see if it was filled with people he could trust. Jinkusu, his mother, and a sleeping Esdeath. This would do. "Mother, about what happened, I injected cells of the First Hokage into my body to help restore the damage done to me and also gain a greater buff in strength."

Naori looked at him in deadpan.

"You did what now?"

A sigh escaped his lips. This was going to be a pretty long explanation. So Naruto proceeded to explain that when finding Madara's journal, he also discovered the cells of the First Hokage. Which he explained is what was now coursing through his veins and also why he looked bigger and his chakra more potent.

After the explanation, Jinkusu gave Naruto a thumbs up. "Way to plan ahead Brother. I could learn a thing from you."

Naori on the other hand. She began to shake. "Hardheaded boy! Do you have any idea what could have happened?! Why would you perform something so reckless?! What if the drawbacks were more than you could have imagined? Back in the leaf, people died trying to do these same experiments you just did." Naori brought her fist down on Naruto's head causing the boy to fall back on his pillow.

"I'm sorry Mother, but I had no choice. It was the only way to escape. In the shape I was in, It was the only option." Naruto tried to explain but his mother still glared down at him angrily with hints of distress and sadness in her eyes, but mainly the motherly fury.

Until her head dropped and she rested her face in the palms of her hand. "What am I going to do with you?" She mumbled quietly, mainly to herself. "My baby isn't a baby anymore."

The scene of seeing his mother shed tears for him served to cause his cold heart to flake apart. He brought her into a hug and patted her back softly. "I'm sorry for being such a problem child Mother, I hope you can forgive me someday."

Naori only hugged back and let tears fall. "My idiot son, I will always love you, no matter what." She kissed Naruto on the forehead. "And don't you forget that."

That's when they all heard a menacing chuckle. "Hehe, The Uchiha Heir still getting kisses from his mommy." Esdeath said leaning on her fist with a teasing smirk.

"Silence Ice Wench! Don't ruin such a beautiful scene." Jinkusu said pointing his weapon at Esdeath who gained a tick mark.

"Ice Wench." She raised her finger and a blade of ice materialized above her. Which soon raced towards Jinkusu who simply caught the ice sword by the hilt. "You little Uchiha brat."

"Where is your motivation." Jinkusu spoke cooly as he tightened his grip on the sword which caused it to shatter into little pieces.

"What?" They all said in unison.

"Nothing, Just finish what you were talking about."

"Yea, but I have more news to share with you Mother, and the whole clan really." Naruto said excitedly and Naori could see it clear as day.

"Must be something really good to have you so worked up." Naori said smiling. "Tell you what, I'll hold a clan meeting where you can tell everyone what you discovered."

"Well now that you are done, I have some things to say as well." Esdeath spoke up and picked herself up to sit up straight. She was serious and the atmosphere of the room switched just like that.

"What is it." Naori asked, also serious now.

Not wanting to skate around the ice ring, Esdeath just came out and said it. "There is a traitor in our mist. On my way back, I was visited by Kagura and he told me there was a traitor in our forces."

"Kagura, Is that all he said?" Naruto asked.

"Yes, I don't know if he was lying or not. But it would make sense that we had a traitor, There have been too many things to point out the fact. The mission where we lost Kenpachi should have been a real eye-opener." Esdeath held anger in her tone as she spoke. "When I find out who it is, they'll regret ever being born."

"Mother, has anyone new and suspicious popped up while we were gone?"

"Well there is Raiga Kurosaki, I am still a little suspicious of him. But the only problem stopping me from going any further is."

"He's Buntan's father, I understand why you would be hesitant." Naruto looked down regretfully. Buntan was a dear friend of his, but her father had to be checked out. "We need to place him in a genjutsu. Force the truth out of him." The words came out sharp, like a dagger being sharpened.

"That's what I was thinking, but he's been staying away from us as much as he could. To the point where it feels forced at this point, like he's wary of us." Naori informed her son who was deep in thought.

"Did he seem shocked when he saw you or the clan?" Naruto questioned deathly.

Naori gasp and recoiled. "No. he didn't."

That's when they heard Jinkusu draw his sword with the sound of a sharp shing. "There is nothing left to say."

"Hold on Brother Jinkusu, We can't just up and kill him like that. It will cause panic and distress. Placing him under a genjutsu and forcing the information out of him is the most effective way to handle this."

Naruto's statement served to halt Jinkusu in his steps.

"Sorry, Didn't mean to act without thought, Just lost my cool for a second." Jinkusu pushed his weapon back into its blue sheath and sat down.

"It's alright, I'm feeling a bit antsy too." Naruto said giving a reassuring nod.

"Hold on Naruto, that's your friend's dad you're talking about." Naori pulled Naruto back to an important factor he missed.

"I know, but I can't allow my emotions to get in the way of something so important." Naruto spoke in a tone void of human feelings causing his mother to worry about his mental health. "Buntan is smart and mature enough to know what something like this means."

"He's right, Naori-sama. If we allowed our feelings to get in the way of something like this, it could result in the death of us all. Placing Raiga in a genjutsu is the best choice of action." Esdeath agreed with Naruto on this. Although the girl may hate them, she will still be alive in the end.

"I know what you are saying is true, I just hate making decisions like this, but I know I must." Naori said resolutely, resolving herself to bear the young girl's hatred in the end.

"So when shall we place him in a genjutsu? And whose going to do it?" Jinkusu asked in his plastic white chair sitting against the wall.

"Shisui-kun can do it, he has the best genjutsu abilities out of all of us in the Uchiha." Naori declared.

"Tch, subpar at best." Naruto grumbled to the side.

"Ha. No way that goof is the best genjutsu user yall have." Esdeath mocked from her bed.

Naori placed a hand to her mouth to muffle her laugh. "You all underestimate Shisui-kun's power. It was he who made Ao retreat those years ago. He is also the strongest member of the clan behind me. Shisui is feared by shinobi all over the world for his fearsome capabilities with the Sharingan."

"Hmph." came the reply from both Naruto and Esdeath, they noticed how both gave the same response and glared at each other.

"Now I must leave this place and walk the streets." Naruto said trying to leave the bed, but was pushed back down by his mother.

"No, The medical nurse said you can't leave yet."

"But the people need to see I am alive, it will serve to boast morale when they notice I am alive and well. Think how hyped the troops will be when they see me." Naruto gave a compelling argument, like he always did.

Naori didn't want Naruto out yet for her own reason of wanting to come and rest up with Naruto. But he made a good point. "No, you can't leave."

"But why not?"

"Because I said so! And… you're grounded."

"What, you can't ground a shinobi, I have to go on missions and fight." Naruto protested with a slack jaw.

"So, I am your mother first, and whatever I say, happens." Naori said with crossed arms and a nod of her head.

Naruto didn't like it, so he came up with an idea. He activated his Mangekyo Sharingan. Which his mother took notice of.

"You better not."

Wordlessly, before Naori could grab onto him and halt what he was doing, Naruto used Kamui and sank through the room.

Naori's brow twitched and she clenched her fist. "That naughty child." She got up and disappeared from the room.

Jinkusu laughed with a warm smile. "I'm glad she is doing much better now, It was sad to see her in so much pain. But that's over now, I can feel it. The tides are changing and victory approaches ever slowly."

"What are you, a public speaker now?" Esdeath asked bored.

"No, I'm just happy for once." With that being said, he left without a sound.

---

Naruto appears inside of the Uchiha grounds where he is quickly spotted by the others. "Young Master, your alive!"

Naruto couldn't help the smile cross his face as he was greeted by those he loved. "Yes, I am doing well."

As they all held smiles and walked with him to his makeshift home. A small shack really with just enough space for him and his mom. It was better than sleeping on the ground in a tent at least.

Moving to a box in the corner that had his clothes, he opened it and pulled out what he wanted to wear. Naruto quickly took off the hospital gown leaving him in just his undergarments allowing his lean physique to show and it was impressive for such a young age.

Pulling up his black pants and sliding into his ninja sandals that featured white leg warmers on his sandals. Covering his black shirt that clung to his skin was a grey Uchiha top with the fan symbol on the back. Completing the outfit was a black obi and gloves, but something was missing from his person. He could feel it.

Leaned up against the wall was the black pole he crafted. The shiny black metal was giving off a slight pulse of chakra and seemed to be calling out to him.

"What's this feeling?" Naruto walked over and collected the staff which stopped it's pulsating hum and settled in his hand. Naruto spun the staff around a couple of times to get back into things again. The staff hummed in his hand again, but this time it felt happy and satisfied. "Happy to see me girl." Naruto held it in a strong grip where it fit perfectly. "I should finish this weapon before it's too late."

Placing his finger in a cross, five puffs of smoke came out and revealed five copies of himself. "Strange, I only meant to make one. Has my chakra increased this much? I will have to place effort into controlling my chakra again."

Four were dispelled and left only one remaining. "Go to the shop and get my furnace ready, Our ultimate masterpiece will soon be finished."

The clone nodded and left in a Body Flicker. "Now it's time to eat." but before Naruto could leave, the door to his shack was blasted open.

Not panicking since he just felt the person's chakra, Naruto turned with a blank expression. "Why must you always blow my door off its hinges."

The girl standing there was a face he knew all too well. She seemed different though, that much could be said by the change in outfit and the bags under her eyes. Her outfit was a dark blue Uchiha top that was held closed by red bandages which also served to hold her tanto. Grey skin tight shorts reached to the middle of her thighs. On the left thigh was a kunai pouch holding her ninja tools. High-calve sandals covered in dried blood much like the rest of her outfit served to paint an image.

"Just got back from a successful mission I see. Good job, Mira."

Mira's lip trembled and the back of her throat began to burn as her vision began to swim. She then slowly walked closer to Naruto as her body trembled. "Brother." she spoke finally, voice about to crumble down like a damaged building.

"Naruto-kun." She said his name this time as her dirt-covered hands landed on his chest. "Naru…are you really here right now?" Her red cheeks and watery eyes looked at his own black orbs.

"I have always been here. Right here." Naruto used his finger to poke Mira in the chest, right where her heart would be.

Mira shook her head. "No, that wasn't enough. I need to see you." She hugged him tight. "Like I can now."

Before the girl could break down in tears, Naruto cupped her face. "So many tears today, There is no need for tears." Naruto wiped the waterworks away.

"I've missed you Naruto-kun, so much that it hurt." Mira rubbed her face onto Naruto's chest as she smiled. "I even awakened my Mangekyo Sharingan just like Brother Jin. I had begun to hate and despair. I didn't like it, but there was nothing I could do to stop it."

Naruto frowned as he listened to Mira's words. "You don't have to hate or despair. Don't fall into hatred. You've got to beat it."

"I…think I did. Because the counter to hate is love. It was the love for my family keeping me going. And…my love for you." Mira stopped and looked up at Naruto with honest and true heartfelt love in her eyes. "Naruto-kun, I've felt this way for a long time and I know it may be too soon to say this, but I love you."

"Mira." That was all Naruto could say. He was shocked and felt happy but also sad at the same time. He looked away and closed his eyes.

Mira noticed and ducked her head. "I know this is sudden, I figured you wouldn't feel the same since you never really showed interest in me like that. I shouldn't have said anything." She turned to walk away but stopped when Naruto held her hand. But she didn't look back choosing to face the door.

"No, it's just that. Now, I can't afford these kinds of feelings." Naruto's voice came out frail and resentful. Mira had been his childhood friend, his best friend. Ever since they were kids and played or more like Mira dragging him around and doing the most reckless of things.

Naruto wasn't sure when it started but the feelings he started to develop for the young girl. It came as a surprise to him as well. When she would give him that big goofy smile, it caused him to smile as well. Or her obnoxious as she would conquer some new challenge and brag to him about it.

Her personality, she never let anything stop her and always found a way to overcome diversity. Never letting anything slow her down. It was something he admired about her. Loved it even, maybe that's why he stuck around with Mira. No matter what, she could always keep up with him.

"We have responsibilities right now that we must put first. But if it makes you feel any better." Naruto pulled Mira back so they could look each other in the eyes. "I think I like you two, maybe even love. But we are too young to understand the weight of that word."

"But I do understand, I'm mature. I've changed. I know that what I feel for you is love."

"If your mature, then you know we are at war. In the final stages of it, in these critical moments, we can't afford to be sidetracked." Naruto gave a frozen smile that seemed more apathetic.

"It's because we are at war. When I thought you died, A part of me died as well. I thought I could never tell you how I felt. So in case I never get to tell you again, I want you to know how I feel." Mira smiled as she embraced in a soft gentle hug. "I'm not asking for a relationship or anything like that. I just want you to know."

Naruto hugged the girl back as they stood in each other embrace. "Let's make a promise. A promise to see this war to the end and when it's all over, we can…try to make something of these feelings we have for each other."

"I promise, to see it to the end."

As the two kids of war shared their moment, Shisui leaned against the wall with a smile on his face. Naruto didn't seem to notice as Shisui had his chakra suppressed. "I'm glad they were able to talk this out. Now Little Sis shouldn't struggle with this curse any longer, and instead, turn it into a gift. Since that's what the Mangekyo Sharigan is." The teen then left like he was never there.

"But can we go, I'm hungry." Naruto said breaking the silence.

Mira brightened and gave him a beaming smile as her pitch-black eyes sparkled with light. "Golden Chicken."

"Fine." Naruto sighed as Mira pulled him along by the hand. Instead of pulling his hand loose, he'd play along this time. He locked their finger together, causing Mira to look at him with shock before she blushed and smiled.

The two walked hand in hand to Mira's favorite restaurant. Walking the streets, people saw Naruto in good health and just fine. Just like he predicted, everyone began to smile with happiness and the morale began to rise.

A familiar face dropped infront of the two. But the other ugly face, Naruto had never seen before but knew who it was right away. He slowly moved a hand behind him just in case. Raiga and Buntan.

But it was strange. Raiga looked at him with shock and disbelief like he had seen a ghost from his past.

"That proves it, he knows who I am. He must have been told where I was. But seeing me now must be a real shock." Naruto thought. It was all settled and a plan was set in motion.

"Naruto! You're alive!" Buntan ran forward and gave Naruto a bone-crushing hug. "I'm so glad you're okay." She said with a smile of relief. Before it turned into a snarl. "Bastard!" She punched him in the gut which Naruto knew was coming.

That punch hurt, this girl had gotten stronger. "What was that for? You gorilla."

"What did ya call me?! Buntan yelled over Naruto with yellow lighting sparking around the girl.

"I see you doing fine." Naruto looked up toward Buntan and pointed a finger in Raiga's direction. "Who is this?"

Naruto noticed Raiga look away from his eyes. A useless effort.

"Meet me in the center of the camp later tonight." Naruto gave a command to Raiga mentally. Raiga nodded dumbly with a dazed look in his eyes. With a single finger, Naruto had placed the man in a genjutsu. With his vast amount of chakra, something as easy could easily be achieved by disrupting the other man's chakra network with his greater amount.

But he couldn't do anything crazy since his chakra control was a little bit off the rails, but it was good for this situation.

"Oh, I-I m-made you something." Buntan's cheeks turned a healthy shade of red as she dug into the bag on her back. Her red clothes were a little dirty, so she must have returned from a mission. "Y-you better be grateful, I-Idiot." Buntan pulled out a small object, a soft doll that looked like him.

"Thank you." Naruto reached out and accepted the gift with a suspicious voice and gaze. Now that he was holding the soft doll, it looked just like him. It had the same color hair as he did with little red eyes for the Sharingan. It wore the black clothes he did and everything else. It was a mirror image of him. But there was one thing he didn't like about it.

That goofy smile.

He didn't smile like that. But other than that, it was a well-made doll. Naruto had to let Buntan know that. "I didn't think someone like you was capable of such a soft and gentle act."

"Is that supposed to be a compliment?" The girl asked.

"It is."

"Gosh! That is the cutest thing." With little stars in her eyes, Mira took the doll away from Naruto and cuddled up against it. "Buntan-chan you have to make me one!"

"It's going to cost you." Buntan said rubbing her hands together with a sharp grin.

"What?" Mira recoiled with a sharp gasp. Before getting close and hugging Buntan. "I'll pay you with our friendship."

"That's not gonna get me anything!" Buntan yelled and with effort, pushed away a struggling Mira.

"Well we need to go home and rest up." Raiga urged as he moved Buntan along. "See ya around!" He waved over his shoulder.

"Bye guys!" Buntan waved as she walked away with her dad. But she turned to see her dad shaking and sweat coming down his brow. "Dad, what's wrong with you? You look like you're about to fall over and die."

Raiga took a look at his shaking hand. He felt confused. During this whole conversation, a part of him just blinked out. As if his mind wasn't his own. He quickly checked to see if his chakra was out of control. He did just come into an encounter with two Uchihas. Which he had been making a great effort to stay away from them.

However, Raiga had no idea that his fate was already sealed and placed on hold. His time was soon to come and the clock slowly ticked as time moved.

"Don't worry about little one, I'm fine." Raiga ruffled her hair. "I'm just a little bit more injured than I thought."

The two kids watched as the father and daughter walked away. But Mira was able to notice something. "That Raiga guy, he seems fishy to me. He's been avoiding me and the clan since he got here." That's when Mira's eyes narrowed into a sharp glare that signaled chaos. "I think he's a spy, It's just a pity he's Buntan-chans father."

"Yea, what a pity." Naruto stared at the retreating back of Raiga with his own death glare like Mira.

"Welp, I'm hungry! Let's go eat." Mira said as if she was not just talking about something really important. She grabbed Naruto's hand and locked fingers again with a cute blush.

But that mood was over, and Naruto was not about to hold her hand again. So he shook his hand from Mira's grasp. Causing the girl to pout.

---

"It sure is taking a while, I know my genjutsu is unbreakable for the likes of him." Naruto quietly spoke sitting up in a tree.

"That's why you should have let me do it, where there would be no doubt." Shisui whispered next to him.

"It's fine, as long as he shows up." Naori, but into the conversation. Until she looked off into the distance. "I sense him coming." Naori and Shisui fell silent as Naruto dropped from the tree.

What his mother sensed was correct after all. Walking towards him with a blank gaze under the light of the moon, was Raiga.

"Scum." Naruto mentally spat with disgust and hatred in his mind. "I hate traitors." Naruto held up a half-ram sign and released the genjutsu golding the man.

"Huh- Wha! Where am I?" Raiga looked around quickly. Taking in the unfamiliar surroundings served as a shock to his system. That is when his eyes landed on Naruto in front of him. "You…You placed me under genjutsu! Didn't you?"

Naruto looked at the man with a placid expression. "I did, and you were powerless to stop it."

Naruto's answer made Raiga grit his teeth together and veins to bulge. As the man looked ready to burst into anger. "You filthy, bloodline-using piece of shit." Raiga pulled a kunai from his back weapon pouch. "I'm going to bury you alive!" With lighting enhancing his speed to move faster than the human eye could track, he rushed forward.

"He's so slow, I could actually run laps around him." And so, taking this chance to test out his power. Naruto literally began to run circles around the piece of shit father. "One, Two, Three, Heart, Lungs, Head, I could kill this worm if I wanted to." Raiga didn't even notice that Naruto had run around him a total of six times already. But Naruto stopped and stood back in his position.

"He's gotten faster." Shisui said smiling. "But how? He was locked up for two weeks. Not to mention how bigger he looks, even his chakra became more potent and large."

"I'll tell you all about it later." Naori's eyes gleamed with happiness. "Now, go do what you came here for."

"Right." Shisui dropped to the ground and as soon as his feet touched the grass, he was gone. He moved at high subsonic speeds to not be seen. Shisui even moved faster than Naruto and Raiga could see, leaving only Naori to follow his movements.

Shisui grabbed Raiga by the throat and now entered Naruto and Raiga's vision. "What incredible speed, I didn't see him move." Naruto had to give props to Shisui, maybe he underestimated him a tiny bit.

"Now, You're going to tell us everything you know." Shisui's voice came out in a dark tone Naruto had never really heard from the kind boy. It was a reminder to him that Shisui was still in ANBU and still a powerful Uchiha.

"I'll n-never t-tell you anything." Raiga said what he could in the hold of Shisui. That's when he was lifted off the ground and held in the air choking and all he could do was look into the hypnotizing eyes of Shisui. "N-no, not a-agin, N-not to these bit…"

"Alright, now what do we ask first? Naori-sama." Shisui let the man drop like a dirty rag.

"Good job Shisui-kun, and great speed Naru." Naori complimented the two boys on a good job as she walked toward them. "And as for what we need." Naori's voice went from soft to hard in a heartbeat. "Everything."

"Okay then, well get the obvious question out first." Shisui turned to face the dazed Raiga. "Are you a spy for Yagura?"

"Yes." Raiga drowned out.

"As expected." Naori said. Though she knew Raiga was a spy, it always felt better to hear it come from the person's mouth.

"Was the story you told us a lie?" Shisui asked.

"Yes."

"What did you lie about?"

"The part where I escaped because of your battle. I had never been caught in the first place. I was trying to kill Zabuza for attempting to assassinate the Mizukage." Raiga informed truthfully and robotically

"Zabuza, That man was too hasty. A lot of this is his fault." Naori scowled.

Zabuza Momochi, A high-ranking Jounin before he went rogue after trying to eliminate the Fourth Mizukage. But Zabuza was no regular shinobi, he was a holder of one of the legendary swords of the mist, which made him a member of the seven. Next to Ameyuri and the others.

Zabuza was famous in the Bloody Mist for killing a whole class of training shinobi. And he wasn't even a shinobi with any up-and-coming training. He often enjoyed killing a little too much and volunteered for a mission involving assassination or straight slaughter.

This earned him the nickname of Demon of The Mist.

"I think Mei said something about him before, But I can't remember." Naruto said with a finger to his chin.

"Yes, she mentioned he wanted to be Mizukage and save the nation from dying." Naori answered the question. "But that's off-topic, let's get back to asking more questions."

"What all have you told Yagura?" Naruto asked a very tense and serious question that made all of their stomachs turn.

"I told him about the mission on Shigakure Island, I told him about Thriller Grand, I've been telling him where the supply chains are, who to target, and even this very base."

If they weren't surprised before, they were now. Raiga had told Yagura their main base. For all they know, Yagura could be here any second to wipe us all off the map.

In a flash, Naori withdrew her blade and almost cut off the man's head. But she stopped at the last second. "Damn it." She pulled back her sword. Naori gnashed her teeth together as the situation quickly became critical.

"We've got to speed things up, no longer can we wait. We must attack first." Naruto strongly spoke but he frowned. This was not good at all.

"What a nightmare." Shisui ran his hand down his face with exaggeration.

"That's all we needed. Send him home, but don't dispel the genjutsu from him. Keep it as a fail-safe, well expose him in front of everyone in the near future." Naori ordered Shisui to turn the genjutsu into a dormant genjutsu. For someone of Shisui's level, it was child's play.

"Roger." Shisui did as told and performed the genjutsu. Raiga began to leave unaware of what he had just told them.

"Come on let's go, You said there was something you wanted to tell the clan right?" Naori pulled Naruto close and began to walk back to the Quarry.

"Yes, I meet our Goddess."

Naori giggled cutely. "That must have been some good sleep."

---

As all the Uchiha gathered around a campfire looking at Naruto who was preparing to tell them important news. And by the smile on his face, it appeared Naruto was eager to tell.

"The floor is yours son." Naori gestured for Naruto to go as she sat down on a log.

Naruto nodded. "I am sure you all know about how we prayed to the Naka Shrine." They all nodded in the affirmative. "Well, Our prayers were heard and answered by our Goddess, Sengen-sama, Sakuya-hime, or Blooming Princess."

Everyone looked at him and blinked owlishly. They looked at him like he was crazy or something. That would be everyone except for Mira whose eyes were wide.

"W-wait, did you say Sengen?" Mira stood up from her seat next to Haikawa who was laid out across Jinkusu's lap.

Naruto smiled. Did Mira already know of her? "Yes, Segen-sama has been watching over us since the very beginning. She is the one who gifted us the Sharingan and gives us our Mangekyo abilities."

"That is some craziness." Haikawa said lying across Jinkusu's lap.

With a twitching eyebrow. Jinkusu asked her a question. "Why are you in my lap? I am not a chair." She chose not to answer and paid closer attention to Naruto.

Mira moved to Naruto with an expression of confusion. "D-do you mean we have a God?"

"Yes."

Mira looked hesitant about something and seek comfort in her brother Shisui who tossed her a thumbs up. Which meant it was okay to reveal her new power.

"Naruto-kun, I have something to show you." Mira then looked Naruto in the eyes and began to send chakra to her eyes. Mira's eyes changed into their advanced state. Mira had eight small triangles surrounding her black pupil which gave the effect of an incomplete star.

"You and Brother Jinkusu both huh?"

"Yup!" Jinkusu flashed his own swirling eyes of chaos at Naruto.

"Yes, we awakened them when we thought you had…died." Mira's voice dropped and she looked away in sadness.

"I'm sorry for that. Really. I'll be sure it won't happen again." Naruto apologized.

"You better! You scared us half to death!" Haikawa shouted in anger.

Naruto chuckled. "I'm sorry Sister, it won't happen again."

"Better not."

"But what do you want to show me?" Naruto turned towards Mira again.

"My ability, it's called Sengen." Mira held up her hand and a brilliant red flame roared to life.

Naruto's eyes went wide as he looked at the red flame that possessed an oppressive heat that even the Uchiha sitting down could see. Against his will, Naruto activated his own Mangekyo Sharingan. His was still the same hollow three-pointed pinwheel with a black pupil in the middle of the small hole.

A familiar tingle ran through Naruto's eyes and he scanned the red fire in Mira's hand, taking in every little detail. How much chakra it took, how fast it could activate, what chakra points does it extend from, and how to make it better. That's when Naruto held up his hand and to everyone's shock, Red fire much like Mira's sprung on his hand, but it seemed to be more dense and powerful than the original.

A pregnant pause covered the camp so much that even the crickets didn't chirp. They all just looked at the two young Uchiha in bewilderment.

"How interesting." Naruto said. He began to play around with the fire as he changed its shape of it, making it into a small sphere, a sword, or even stretching the flame.

"What! How did you do that? You can't just copy my power." Mira pointed a finger at Naruto.

"Is this what you meant? Sengen-sama." Naruto let the flame dispel. And turned towards the crowd. "Take my words to heart for our Goddess watches over us. This flame is a representation of her will!"

Now the boy's words had merit and they'd be sure to take in what they had learned today. But one thing was clear. Naruto Uchiha indeed was amazing.

"Your son is a cheat code Naori." Korigan whispered with a fanged grin. "I wonder if he can even copy your ability?Hmm?"

"I suppose there is only one way to find out right." Mira grinned back before she got up and walked over to her son. "Let's test this out, See if you can copy even my ability." She sent him a wink.

The inverted flower petal spun to life in Naori's eye as the shadow beneath her feet widened. Jumping from the shadow was a replica of Naori except for two horns made from wind on their forehead.

The same process that happened with Mira happened again and Naruto ended up copying his mother's ability. All it took was one glance and a second to have the layout memorized and the technique was his. Naruto's ability to copy other Mangekyo abilities was something that happened on its own. Even without him doing it.

This ability was called Sveznalica.

Jumping from Naruto's expanded shadow below his feet was a clone of the boy. The difference being his horns were even different from his mother's. These horns were not big or small, just a medium size. They came from the side of his head just above his ears. They resembled the horns of a water buffalo in their shape but not size.

The horns were made from orange fire that blazed on Naruto's head. "How interesting. This clone of mine seems to have the same strength as me. I guess these clones are different from the Shadow Clones."

"That is very interesting." Naori came and poked the Naruto. She noticed that this fire clone had Naruto Mangekyo pattern in its eye just like her clones would have her own.

"That's not fair! He can have everyone's abilities." Mira said in shocked outrage. That's when she leaped into Shisui's arms crying fake tears. "Brother! You have to do something, even his fire was better than mine." She whined into Shisui's chest.

"C'mon, stop overreacting sis. " Shisui patted Mira's back comforting.

"As I said, It was a gift, and I finally realize it now. The curse of hatred."As soon as Naruto said that, all the Uchiha frowned at the sour subject giving off dissatisfied grunts. "It was a challenge to see if we were truly worthy of the power we received in return. You must first defeat the enemy which is yourself before hoping to defeat others." Naruto said. "I know what I am saying may seem a little crazy, and even I am still a little freaked that this is real, But just listen as I only speak the truth, just like I always have."

Now Naruto was finished and all the Uchihas had to take in the words of their clan heir. For some reason, they all felt stronger as their bonds with each other seemed to increase and the love they all shared radiated the darkness in their hearts, like a lighthouse shining its piercing light through the dark saving all those it captured with its loving light.

Had the time they spent murdering each other for power all worthless? Killing their closest friends for something that wasn't even guaranteed really worth it in the end. Some felt guilty leaving the scene and went into their tents to continue praying like they had been doing throughout the years. There was no shrine for them to pray to, but even still it felt as if their prayers were being answered.

---

Naruto lay resting in a blue shirt underneath the coverers of his bed. "What a crazy day." He held up his hand to his ceiling as he flexed his hands a couple of times. "I've got to get back to training tomorrow and get back into shape." To not be a burden or allow any more of his comrades to die, Naruto had to become stronger. And no longer having to deal with the curse of hatred diluting his thoughts anymore he was in a way…free.

That is when his door opened and Naruto turned to see his mother in a long purple nightgown. "Hey Son." Naori walked over to Naruto's bedside. "Just come to tell you goodnight." She leaned down and kissed Naruto's forehead before in an obvious act of falling over. She landed next to him under the covers smiling as if nothing had happened.

"Mother, why are you in my bed?" Naruto asked with a twitching eyebrow. "And I know you tripped on purpose."

Naori only gave him an eye smile. "I don't know what you are talking about?"

"Hmph."

Naori then pulled Naruto close to her as she rested her head atop of his with a soft smile. "I just want to sleep with you tonight. Where I know you will be safe and secure, in my loving arms."

Naruto didn't reply as he simply rested in his mother's embrace which allowed him to sleep peacefully. Which was much needed since it had been two weeks since he had gotten a good sleep. And now, he couldn't think of any better place to be.

---

Two days later

Forging Warehouse

Naruto stood in a white undershirt that clung to his skin from the sweat running down his body. He had on a visor and a dirty apron to keep him safe from the sparks. His hands were in gloves as he held a big hammer in his right hand.

The fire in his furnace was a brilliant crimson red from Sengen that sounded like a beast as it roared. Naruto held big steel pliers in his hand that was used for crafting. Pulling out a burning slab, Naruto quickly sat it on an anvil. He quickly got to hammering away at it trying to thin out the black shining metallic metal.

Naruto had been doing this for about thirty minutes now as had been trying to make the perfect shape. But now it seemed to be perfect! So Naruto set the metal in water as it sizzled and popped from the heat.

This is what Naruto had been doing all morning. He was making the perfect weapon that could cut down anyone that stood before him. In a process of shaping the metal, cooling it down, and some more banging here and there. Naruto finally had what he wanted.

With his gloved hands Naruto held up the piece of sharp metal. The blade reached fourteen inches long and at a mere touch could draw blood. The coating clay Naruto used was a smooth gray that was dark at the top and slowly faded into a much lighter shade of gray that resembled clouds filled with rain ready to fall. "Now all that's is to connect the two." With that said, Naruto went on to connect the two pieces using the knowledge he'd gained from trial and error.

With intense focus Naruto connected the two pieces carefully to not mess anything up. And in the end, it came out just the way he wanted it to.

Smiling the entire time, Naruto held up the newly forged scythe. It possessed the same now black scales of Samehada that formed into a long staff that had a chain attached towards the bottom of it. This chain would be used to attach the gunbai or any other weapon he wanted. The part meant for killing, was perfect! Sharp, Curved, Unique, and Sturdy.

"Finally, you are complete. My masterpiece. A weapon unmatched and peerless. You are no normal scythe, or weapon, as even the Seven Ninja Swordsmen's blades pale in comparison to you." Naruto could feel the weapon vibrate in his hand with what felt like… excitement? He was excited too.

"Safuyu shall be your name."

Imbuing Safuyu with chakra it hummed and shifted colors as the chakra lit up his work area drawing all the other's attention who were working in the forge.

"Thank you, Master."

Naruto blinked as the feminine voice came to his mind like a whisper. Naruto looked over at everyone staring at him with wide eyes. He checked to see if any women were in the forge, but found no one.

"How strange." Naruto said to himself ignoring the gaping mouths of the other men in the forge. But now it was time to train with Safuyu and learn how to perform combos with it.

---

As Naruto performed cuts, stabs, and swings with Safuyu, he held a smile the whole time. This was great, the weapon was performing perfectly. It was balanced, never slipped from his hands, and didn't strain under the now increased strain of his chakra.

Sending lightning chakra to the weapon, Naruto sent arcs of purple lighting toward a field of trees that cut them all down upon contact. "So interesting, it amplifies my chakra as I send into it." Smirking at the weapon, Naruto couldn't help but give praise to it. "Safuyu, truly amazing. What else can you do?" Naruto performed a sign for the Shadow Clone jutsu. And a clone popped into existence next to him.

"Fire a jutsu at me. I wish to test if it can absorb it like the original Samehada." Naruto ordered the clone and took positions.

A giant fireball came hurdling at him burning the ground black as it carved a path toward him. Naruto spun the scythe in a blatant show of skill and performed a clean cut down the center of the fireball. Instead of taking in the chakra, Safuyu turned the fire chakra into small blue particles that floated around the area.

Naruto could sense what had happened. Instead of absorbing, Safuyu performed the opposite and negated the chakra with her own, canceling it out in a way. "That will come in handy for the future."

Naruto let the clone dispel as he got an idea. "One last test, I hope your up for it." Naruto shifted into a stance where he perform a cut in an instant. "Eternal Rest: Grave Marker." The long and furious swings of Naruto's scythe were incredible as his arms moved so fast, you wouldn't even be able to see them. Even a fully grown Sharingan would have trouble keeping pace with his arms.

As the attack neared its end and the swings came to a stop, Naruto felt he could keep going, so he did. Creating a second act on the spot. "Second Act: Tombstone." Naruto spun the scythe in a circular motion around himself, basically trapping himself in a cutting circle. His hands and wrist spun perfectly with each other to keep Safuyu in his grasp as the attack came out flawlessly.

Naruto stopped and exhaled. He looked to see if the weapon should any signs of strain or was about to break.

No sings.

Naruto walked over and sat down on a log, reflecting on everything he had learned. He took a sip from his water flask and rested Safuyu in his lap. These past few days have been something else. He discovered a Goddess was watching over his clan, Mira was in love with him, Buntan's father was a traitor, and he finally knew the name of his own Mangekyo Sharingan.

What he thought was Kamui was just a fake. The real name of his Mankeyo ability was called Sveznalica. "Know all huh? quite fitting dare I say." But that was furthest from the truth. "I know nothing." Naruto said the words that sat deep within his heart. For when you know nothing, there is the possibility of knowing everything.

---

"Are you sure?" Naori's voice came out stern. "What you say is the hard truth."

Bowing in front of her was a ninja. "Yes, everything is ready and we can now capitalize on Shiagakure Island. Our forces are very high, morale high, while the enemy has been goofing off on that island for months now. If we attack now, they won't stand a chance."

"They have gotten cocky, thinking we are already beaten." Naori cracked her fingers in irritation. "While it is true our numbers have increased. This is still risky in the fact that Shiagakure Island is the most guarded and is hard to enter."

"That's why I think we should just attack it head first." Mei gave her input from the side. "It's an Island enclosed inside a barrier of high cliffs."

"You might be right about that." Naori sighed sadly at Mei's answer. In truth, she had been thinking the same way. "Maybe instead of trying to sneak in, we just launch an all-out attack." Naori then turned to the soldier below her. "If what you say is correct, they will never suspect us of doing something so reckless."

"If anything, their troops should be starving, we have been cutting off their supply chains for half a year now." Mei gave key information that sparked a flame of confidence inside Naori.

Naori brightens at the statement. "You're right, This should be an easy conquest." Naori then stood from her seat. "Gather up our forces, I want seven-hundred able shinobi ready to leave. Mei go get Harribel, Esdeath, and anyone else you think might help. I'll gather up the Uchiha."

"Roger!" The two nodded before vanishing from view.

---

"Woah, seriously?" Mira asked in shock.

"Yes, it's time to prepare because we will be moving out." Shisui told his little sister.

"About time, I've been itching to kill somebody." Higan said flexing his hands and grinning.

"They're not ready for the slaughter about to commence." Haikawa had a devilish grin that matched her father's. This battle was going to be brutal, bloody, and hellish. She was going to love it!

"Brother Jin, you've got your hands full with that family." Mira nervously stepped back and looked at Jinkusu. "Bro?"

Jinkusu was radiating chakra from his body as he slowly began to withdraw Summer Queen. "A slaughter shall commence."

"I think he's already been corrupted." Mira then looked towards Naruto who was checking to see if he had everything.

"Mira, come here." Naruto said, causing the girl to walk closer to him.

"What is it? Good luck smooch." She blinked her long and curved eyelashes at him with a cute blush.

"Here. put this on." Naruto held out Uchiha-styled armor to the girl. "I noticed you're was damaged, so I fixed it for you."

Mira held the armor and gave a once-over. It was light gray and contained a chest piece, and two plates on her waist. "Thanks, I'll feel more protected now."

She earned a nod from Naruto. "Glad you like it. In the future, I'll make you a better dagger as well. Instead of using that tanto."

Mira gave a soft smile. "It's fine, you don't have to do all that for me. This is special." Holding the plain black tanto in her hands, almost caressing it. Mira smiled. "I'm glad you'd do all that for me, but really. It's fine."

"Whatever you say, I'll do it anyway." It was clear Naruto wasn't going to budge on the matter and Mira just bumped his chest with her fist.

"Your mom was right, you are hardheaded."

"Get a room you two." Haikawa teased the two with a grin matching a Cheshire cat.

"Sister! Shut up!" Mira yelled with a full-on atomic blush.

"Anyways, let's go. I am sure everyone is ready." Naruto ordered and they all filled out to the main entrance of the camp.

---

Naruto, Mira, Shisui, and Jinkusu sat on a rocky ledge that was eighty-seven meters high off the ground. Beneath the cliff was a large body of water. Resting in this large lake was an island with a big prison and a small town located. The prison was on the west of the island where their captured soldiers were kept, this is also where most of their island was stationed. While he and the one-hundred and fifty shinobi would attack the town.

Their captain was Harribel and she was wearing a white crop top held closed by four golden buttons. Her bottoms were also white hakama pants that left the sides her slim waist exposed showing her olive-colored skin. Her footwear was black zori sandals that were hard to the touch.

"We wait for the others to give the signal and then we flank. So prepare and double-check that you have everything." Harribel stood next to Shisui and folded her arms underneath her breast, causing a slight bounce, which Shisui took notice of.

"N-Naruto, do you have a minute?" Naruto turned to see Chojuro fidgeting as he asked him a question.

"Yes, what do you need?"

Chojuro took a moment and collected himself. "I just want to say I'm glad you're okay. I will fight with all I have to win this."

Naruto was surprised at first, since Chojuro didn't stutter and said that whole thing while looking at him in the eyes. But he then gave Chojuro a firm nod while his lips turned into a smirk. "I appreciate the concern, and we will win today." Naruto turned and looked out toward a section of the town down below. "No matter how challenging it may be." A certain person's chakra could be felt from his location.

---

Squinting her grassy green eyes, Harribel saw the signal. And that signal was the other side jumping off the cliff and launching jutsu toward the prison.

What looked to be a dragon made from ice carried a bunch of the soldiers down and protected others with its giant wings. A clear sign of Esdeath using her bloodline.

"Woah, Esdeath-sensei is awesome." Sonagi said smiling. "I wonder when she will teach me that." Sonagi was still wearing the white militaristic outfit that looked like Esdeath, but he had fur covering his collar and lining on his chest unlike hers.

"Ready everyone, our window of opportunity is coming."

"Yes Captin!" Mira stood with a dark grin and spun her tanto around in her hand.

"When do we go?" Naruto asked.

"When the town starts to panic and sound the alarms. Watch as they flee to the other side in responding aid to their allies." Harribel answers the question, hiding a smirk behind her high collar.

"Outstanding, who came up with such a great plan?"

"This time it was Mei-sama, one of her best I must say." Harribel respectfully answered Naruto. As Harribel herself held Mei in high regard since at first, Mei was the one leading the rebals into victory while also being an outstanding leader. Harribel cherished the bonds they had. "Everyone let's go!"

She was the first to jump.

"Mira, copy my handsigns." Naruto quickly told the girl next to him before jumping off in a flip. Falling, the wind pushed up their hair and the sound was deafening as they would have to yell to hear one another.

Mira did as instructed and performed the same jutsu Naruto did.

"Fire Release: Great Flame Flower!" The two expelled multiple fireballs with a vengeance.

"Do it again, Mira, but this time." Naruto activated his Mangekyo Sharingan. "Add a little red to the painting."

Mira caught on quickly and sped through the same handsigns. "Sengen Great Flame Flower!" Following the orange fireballs, were bigger, better, and stronger red fireballs.

"Nice teamwork!" Shisui gave a grin and thumbs up.

"Sonagi, Amp the fire with a wind jutsu!"

Sonagi was falling upside down with a grin. "Aye aye captain!" Sonagi then proceeded to use a wind jutsu. "Wind Push!"

The already pretty large fireballs were then made bigger and rushed forward faster until.

BOOM!

The attacks landed inside the town and caused mass destruction as a majority of the town was destroyed by that one attack. Sengen began to spread around the town and would continue to burn for a total of five days unless Mira or Naruto said otherwise.

Many ninjas screamed as they were burned to death by the flames or were cut down by the ninja that landed. It was now an all-out attack by the rebels as they defeated enemy after enemy.

"Should have watched your rear." Jinkusu drew Summer Queen and arched it through the air sending a moving crescent of chakra to kill ten ninjas in front of him at the same time.

He blocked an oncoming attack from an enemy shinobi as did a stab to the man's heart. Bumping on the end of Jinkusu's blade was the man's heart slowly stopped beating. "Sheesh, Never did that before."

"You guys handle things over here, I'll be going to settle some things." Naruto told Jinkusu and the boy nodded. He spun and sliced a man in half with Safuyu, causing blood and guts to spill. The ease at which the weapon sliced everyone around him in half was truly something to cringe at. As it cut through muscle tissue, skin, and bone as if it was a kunai cutting wet paper.

As Naruto was about to jump off, His hand was grabbed and he turned to see Mira giving him a serious stare. "Naruto-kun, remember our promise."

"Stepping Blade!" Jinkusu covered the romantic moment in the background by using one of his sword techniques.

Naruto held Mira's hand in his own as he returned her serious look with his own. "I will."

"And die." Jinkusu burnt a dozen plus Loyalists to crisp with his fire jutsu covering the two once again. But after watching these two Jinkusu felt something. "Now I'm feeling motivated." Jinkusu raised his hand which contained a dense amount of chakra and brought it down like a hammer to the ground that shattered and blew to pieces from his devastating power. Leaving nothing standing in his wake as only dead bodies rested beneath his feet.

The two held gazes with each other letting the battle to temporarily cease to exist. "I love you, Naruto-kun, and don't forget that." She then gently pushed Naruto away. "Now get going. We will handle things here."

"Okay." Naruto said before he vanished in a flicker of fire. When Naruto appeared back into existence, He was standing on the water with a blank expression.

Floating in the water as if waiting for him was Kagura. Kagura looked to the sky which began to fill with dark smoke. His ears took in the surrounding chaos, people screaming in pain or for help, shinobi launching jutsu, or the sound of crumbling buildings. "It's time." A sad smile crossed his face before quickly whipping it away as he'd make sure. This battle would be the turning point in the war.

The water underneath Kagura rippled and the next thing Naruto knew he had just blocked four attacks in a row. Placing his gnbai back down, Kagura was still lying down.

"You've gotten faster, That's the same attack I used on you two years ago. Seven Sword Demon: First Act." Kagura stood to his feet with a cheeky smile. "I cut you up pretty well last time. Do you still have that scar, I know I still have mine." Kagura rubbed at the wound he suffered from their last battle.

"Comparing me to my past self, is like comparing a mountain to a bump in the road." Naruto quickly unleashed two slashes toward Kagura who blocked with ease. "But I see you've gotten stronger as well." Naruto said with a grin as he activated the Sharingan.

"And you taller, bigger. I can feel the increase in chakra. What did you do to yourself." Kagura took Hiramekarei off his back and tossed it around in his right hand while Nuibari hung in his left.

"You can wield those things together? Impressive."

"It's really nothing, I have the potential to use all of them. We just don't have them all and the rest are worthless."

"Reminds me of someone."

"Bastard."

The two blinked out of view and met in the middle. They danced in a kenjutsu battle aiming to kill the other but no blows landed. Bouncing back, they rushed forward with great strength and power causing waves to rise underneath them.

"Seven Sword Demon: Fifth Act! Phantom Mist!"

Naruto easily evaded the attack as he had to use his agility to avoid being pierced by Nuibari and his gunabi to block Hiramekarei. Naruto jumped over Kagura and moved forward aiming to cut open Kagura's back. That is when Naruto found his arm stuck and couldn't move.

"Sewing needle strikes." Kagura pulled the needle to him and caused the wire around Naruto to cut into his skin, drawing blood.

Naruto flexed his muscles and tried to move, but found it only made things worse. Kagura moved to finish Naruto with a smirk, but he knew something had to be up, No way Naruto would easily fall into this trap.

As he got close, Naruto puffed out of existence blinding his vision for the time being.

Naruto came from the sky with Safuyu covered in lighting. Kagura's eyes flashed in surprise as he narrowly dodged.

"Running away." Naruto taunted with a smirk.

"Tch, cocky as always." Kagura chuckled with a smile. "But I knew something so simple wasn't going to work on you." But he noticed something about Naruto.

"Nothing will." Kagura heard Naruto behind him, causing his heart to skip a beat. He performed a swing with Hiramekarei, but missed, and cut nothing but the air.

"Too slow." Naruto was crouched but rose up with an uppercut rocking Kagura's jaw and sending him sprawling on the lake. "First blood again, You're not too good at this fighting stuff are you?"

"He sure is enjoying himself isn't he?" Kagura held humor inside his mind. "Whatever." Spinning through handsigns, Kagura launched his next jutsu toward Naruto. "Water Style: Dancing Dragon Heads!"

Dragon heads lifted from the water with eyes of a burning red. They spun toward Naruto with unblockable force.

"Let's show him, Safuyu." Naruto with one swing, cut all the dragon's head in bits as they dropped into small droplets of water. The chakra then went into Safuyu for storage in case needed in later battles.

"What was that? That's not a jutsu you can just cut, It looks like you just sent the chakra away."

"Not quite, I negated the chakra, brought it back to its base form, and took the chakra for myself." Naruto held an arrogant smirk the whole time he explained the premise of Safuyu to Kagura. "It's with this weapon you see here I managed to do that." He twirled Safuyu around giving Kagura a show of the new weapon.

"Is that the masterpiece you had been talking about, saying you'd make something superior to all weapons," Kagura said locking blades with Naruto, as they flashed across the water in battle while having a conversation.

Naruto cratered the area of impact as he landed sideways on the cliff in front of him. "Correct, And I did what I said I would." From his vantage point, Naruto could see a good view of how things were going in the battle below.

---

Esdeath ducked under a swipe of a blade as she quickly maneuvered around the blade swings. She was engaging in battle with Yorisone, the General of this prison.

As she spun around a wide swing from his long sword, Esdeath saw a window of opportunity and quickly took advantage. With her rapier, she lunged and stabbed the man in the shoulder and quickly sent a jab launching the man back.

Yorisone wiped the blood from his lip and quickly stood to his feet. "Bitch, You'll die for that."

Esdeath held a devilish smile. "Not by you or anyone else here, The gap in our power is too great." Esdeath then put up the ram handsign with her grin increasing. "And the gap only widens with this." A spike of her chakra, and Yorisone's right shoulder began to freeze over as it traveled all the way down to his arm.

Yorisone began to panic as the ice crept up to his neck. "W-what did you do?!" He screamed, only to be silenced once his other arm was cut off.

"I used a corroding jutsu of mine. Frost Bite. I just need to hit you one time and your death is all but certain as the jutsu runs up your body. I wonder, how will you die first, By my blade or the ice taking over your body?"

"Or me?" Esdeath had to jump back as someone came crashing down.

"You damn shark hoe! That was my kill." Esdeath said in anger while her hand holding her rapier twitched.

The smoke cleared, showing Harribel pulling her big sword from the dead Yorisone. "Well, we finished securing the captives and they are heading back to the camp."

"Now all that's left is to finish off the stragglers right?"

"Right. Ice Bitch."

"Ice Style: Ice Wall!" A wall of ice rose and blocked water jutsu being launched at Sonagi. The young boy then used the already wall to transform into his next jutsu. "Ice Style: Bullet Barrage." The wall fired many bullets of ice that began to pierce the enemy.

"That's impressive, you've been teaching him well." Harribel complementd.

"Hmph, Did you expect anything less from my clan?" Esdeath turned her nose up with a cocky smile.

"Water Style: Water Twister Vortex!" Using Surrounding water, Mira sent the giant vortex to the enemy trying to run away.

"You won't kill me devil! Water Style: Water Wall!" He shouted and a wall of water rose to protect him and his comrades.

"Too weak." Mira said before adding more chakra and overpowering the jutsu like it was nothing.

"Any you taught her that?" Esdeath asked, but already knew the answer.

"Just a little something here and there."

"AHAHAHA DIE!" Haikawa toar through her enemies with fire covered fist as she fought like an wild animal. "Fire Style: Fire Circus!" Her area was covered in a sphere of fire that contained everyone inside and burned them to a crisp.

"Quite the monster that one." The two could agree on that as she killed grown men with her bare hands.

As the shinobi from the town arrived on the battlefield to help their allies, the large-scale battle picked up again with greater vigor than last time.

Landing in front of Jinkusu was a girl with a small frame and platinum blonde hair cut in a bob cut. She held an emotionless demeanor and spoke coldly.

"You are Uchiha, which means you carry a bloodline. Which also means I will kill you today." She glared at him with eyes of sunset orange. She pulled a small nodachi from her back. It was strapped to a black sash wrapping around her black chest piece which rested over a red body suit.

"You stand in my way?" Jinkusu slowly pulled Summer Queen from its containment. "You die." He didn't even bother to activate his sharingan as he would not need it.

"Rinesu, be careful. This guy hangs with that Naruto fella, He must be pretty strong." A boy of dark skin standing much taller said next to her. His hair was long and a spiky purple. "But he seems to be underestimating you."

"And who are you?" Jinkusu asked. Now taking a better position just in case he had to fight two opponents at the same time.

"Kogai."

"Well Kogai, consider it an honor to die by the hands of an Uchiha!" Mira came in with a barrage of punches that Kogai and to use all his speed to dodge.

A twist of his ankle and he found Mira's elbow connecting with his jaw, breaking it on contact. Kogai was sent spiraling into a building. He coughed out blood and his vision was blurred as he gazed at where he once was.

"W-what just happened?" All he could see, was a twinkling red light. The next thing he knew was a cut opened up on his chest, before another and another and another.

"One Hundred Cuts is the name." Mira said winking at him, before his vision went black and he fell off the wall dead.

"Nice one Sister." Jinkusu nodded in Mira's direction who just ran off.

"Damn you." Rinesu charged forward whereas Jinkusu did as well until they were on opposite sides.

"Those who have no power, should stay off the battlefield. Let that be a lesson in your next life." Jinkusu clicked the sword back into its sheath and ran to catch up with everyone else.

Rinesu slumped on the ground cut in two as blood quickly spilled and tears slowly fell from her closing eyes.

That is when a piece of the giant rock wall fell into the water followed by a great explosion. Mira looked to see Naruto and Kagura fighting intensely up there causing large amounts of damage.

"It looks like Brother is winning, I'm sure he will bring the fight to a close soon."

"You two are worried about the wrong thing. Focus!" Shisui speeds past them using Halo Dance, A signature jutsu of his that the teen created himself.

"Yea, Sorry Brother. I'm just worried." Mira looked back to Naruto one last time sending her silent hopes for him to be okay. "Sengen-sama, Let Naruto-kun return safely."

---

"Uchiha Reflection." Naruto said behind the gunbai which blew back a dragon made from water towards Kagura with double the power.

Kagura groaned in pain as he was blasted upwards onto the grassy field on top of the cliff. Kagura had wounds all over his green shirt and blood spilled from the side of his lips. His clothes were damaged and littered with cuts as he began to pant.

Naruto suddenly appeared above him falling with his weapon. Kagura rolled out of the way and turned Hiramakerai into a long staff and swiped as Naruto who jumped and ran down the length of the poll towards him.

"Athletic bastard." Kagura cursed inside his mind and launched the sewing needle toward Naruto who slipped through it using Kamui.

Naruto passed through Kagura who expected a hit but felt nothing, only for his vision to be covered by the white fan of Naruto's gunbai smacking him off the cliff.

"Aaaa! I hate that damn move!" Kagura saw Naruto diving down at him like a falling bomb. "I've got something for you. Water Style: Water Spears!" spears of water formed and rushed towards Naruto who only spun to the side in mid-air.

When Naruto got close enough to punch Kagura, he had to turn and kick one of the spears away from him. "But I dodged that."

They both landed on the water and rushed towards each other again in a kenjutsu battle. Blocking an attack from Kagura, Naruto's back was left open and a spear of water pierce him from behind.

"What?!" Naruto thought in surprise. "Damn, I was so focused on Kagura that I didn't realize these things could lock onto my chakra. Rookie mistake."

"Figured it out?" Kagura asked smirking. He jumped back as Naruto launched a barrage of kunai at him which he blocked. "Those things will follow you for a total of five minutes. Unless you destroy them, but with that wound I-"

"What wound?"

Kagura narrowed his eyes as the hole in Naruto's top showed his skin was untouched, just like the rest of his body. This was happening the whole battle, Kagura would land a hit only for it to heal right before his eyes or not even hurt Naruto in the first place. Fighting Naruto was really turning into a drag! He discovered the weakness of his Kamui after many battles, and just when he was going to capitalize, Naruto finds a way to gain the advantage in the battle again.

"You asshole. This time you won't be able to heal." Kagura flipped through handsigns and slammed them on the ground. "Summoning! Kraken!"

A puff of smoke that covered most of the island appeared and everyone's attention was drawn to the monstrous creature with tremendous chakra levels. The smoke was blown away when a pinkish tentacle swiped the air sending the smoke away.

Standing on top of the squishy head of an Octopus, was Kagura. The thing had eight extremely large tentacles with razor-sharp teeth and many sucking mouths ready to feast on blood.

"M–mmmaster." The thing spoke, having trouble saying just a simple word.

"Kraken, I need you to help me defeat my enemy over there." Kagura pointed his sword toward the wide eyes Naruto.

"A talking beast? And when did he gain a summoning contract? Kagura, you cunning rat."

Kraken whipped its eight tentacles around and lashed out at all the surroundings. This thing was strange though as it had only one big eye. Its sclera was green with a black slit pupil resting in the center.

But another thing was odd.

Its mouth opened showing rows upon rows of sharp teeth. A small ball of water began to shape in the center as it grew huge, until it was shot from its mouth into Naruto in the shape of a beam.

"What the?!" The attack connected where Naruto was and went ever further destroying the rock wall, causing gigantic boulders to fall and making giant waves splashing the water and washing up on the island taking some of the ninjas into the lake.

"C'mon Naruto, I know that didn't finish you." Kagura looked around for Naruto as his pink eyes took in the surroundings.

A swirling sound made its way to his ears and Kagura turned to block an attack from Naruto who came rushing out of the vortex. "He can go inside the Kamui too? Since when?!"

Unknown to Kagura, this was something Naruto had just unlocked moments ago as even he was surprised at the ability he now possessed.

Their weapons meet and Naruto racked the Nuibaari from Kagura's causing the weapon to land on the island shoreline. Coating his hand in lighting chakra and landing a palm thrust on Kagura's gut, sending him falling off in sharp pain.

However, Kagura was gently caught by Kraken's tentacle. "S-safe." The big monster stuttered again.

"I don't think so big guy, he's good." Kagura stood up on the arm of Kraken. The beast shook its head, causing Naruto to jump off the wild beast's head. But not before he slashed at one of the tentacles trying to slap him off.

A clean cut followed, cutting off one of the eight tentacles. The beast cried in pain as its loud voice shook the air. Only for Naruto to see the chakra gather in the arm and another tentacle popped out.

"Where did you find this thing Kagura?" Naruto asked landing on the water.

"Oh you know, just at a rescue dog center." Kagura clearly mocked.

Naruto calmly glared up into the one eye of the beast. He could just place the beast in a genjutsu, but Kagura could forcefully break it and that would only be a waste of chakra. Right now though, this was good. The fight wasn't that challenging anymore because Naruto held the advantage throughout the whole fight.

But now.

As much as he tried to fight it. A dark grin slowly morphed onto Naruto's face as chakra began to radiate in waves off his body. The tomoe in Naruto's Mangekyo Sharingan danced around his pupil in excitement as his blood pumped.

"Let's dance."

Naruto put his hands into the tiger seal and activated Kamui. "Fire style: Bomb Blast Dance!" Naruto Spewed out fire that took the form of a swirling vortex following the path of Naruto's Kamui. The jutsu was large as it grew bigger the closer it got to Kagura, casting a shadow from its sheer size. Causing even five-story buildings to look small in size comparison.

"He still has this much chakra left?! When does it end? He doesn't even look tired yet. Even in the past battling like this would drain him. Naruto, Are we truly not on the same level anymore?" Kagura's thought wandered on the lines of caution as he began to feel the gap in their power grow further and further.

But it was put to a halt when the fire reached Kraken and the sea monster started to get burned as it flailed its tentacles and protest as the flames crawled up its body burning every part of it.

Kagura had to work quickly to put out the flame with water jutsu. Kraken roared and began to spin kicking up waves that threaten to swallow the island whole. It even started to release water bullets in all directions.

Naruto used chakra on his feet to stick to the water. This was going to be a problem. If he allowed the Kraken to stay up, it would cause greater damage to his comrades. And he couldn't allow that! So he'd stop this beast, with his own power!

So, he riled up his chakra even further and it turned into crystal white a skeleton ribcage started to form and Naruto began to get lifted off the ground. A body, muscles, and tendons formed around a body. Until standing there was Naruto's incomplete Sussano. It holding a scythe and the Loop of Binding wrapped around its head.

Over to the side, Shisui put a hand on his hip. "Welp, guess I don't need to help him. He seems to have this under control."

"What is that?!" Mira asked in awe.

"He sure is strong, and to think we had finally caught up to him in strength." Jinkusu gave a weak laugh as he shook his head. "Brother is a peerless genius, the Epitome of Strength."

"That is the Sussano, a unique ability of the MangekyoSharingan." Shisui turned to smirk at the two. "Something you two should unlock in the near future."

"Wow, I-it's perfect." Mira expressed her shock with wide eyes, before smiling up at Naruto. There it was again, that feeling of adoration she felt towards him as she felt motivated to do better. So that one day, she could be worthy of his love.

Shisui's smirk increased. "not quite, but's it's close."

Naruto looked down at Kraken and Kagura who had widened eyes of shock. Naruto clenched his fist as he sent more chakra into the Sussano going for more. The warrior of white grew and it roared to the sky as its golden eyes shined and parts of the body began to shift. At the joints of its elbows, arms grew giving the thing four arms and it even grew another face on the back of its head.

But just when Naruto could feel the power of it growing, it was like he ran into a wall. Because he now felt something blocking him from going further. "What's going on? Why can't I go further?"

What Naruto didn't know was he did not have enough chakra to complete the perfect Sussano. So he could not break through to the new realm of power which would be required to obtain a perfect Sussno. So in the meantime, Naruto would have to make through with what he has now which was more than enough to crush his enemy.

"Fine, it's of no meaning." Naruto turned his sights to the Kraken and commanded the Sussno to attack. "This is more than enough to finish this fight."

"Okay! Do anything, something to block this attack or we are both dead!" Kagura basically yelled to Kraken who seemed to be shaking as well.

"H-he, fit to summon, Boss l-like him."

"What are you talking about? Just protect yourself!" Kagura ordered. And this time, Kraken pulled itself together and wrapped itself up in its tentacles while also using a protective layer of chakra which the many mouths on the tentacles did, by releasing a steady stream of chakra causing a sort of force field to protect him and Kagura.

Naruto's eyes took on more of a sorrowful look as he began to feel regret for what he was about to do. "No matter what you do, There is no blocking this next attack. This is the end." Naruto raised the scythe high above the Sussano's head. "My friend." The words came out like a whisper in the silent wind.

With the force of a dropping meteor, Naruto brought the weapon of the Shinigami down upon the two with a thunderous shockwave that exploded on contact.

---

"Well damn, That boy is… wow." Ameyuri was left speechless by the display of power.

Looking over to the place of impact, Buntan narrowed her eyes. "Naruto sure has gotten stronger." Naruto, some random guy she just so happen to fight one night, had now become her comrade and sibling student under Ameyuri. They went back and forward, but mostly her yelling at him. But Naruto had become a very dear person to her.

And it had truly damaged her heart to learn of his death. But to see him alive really plastered a bright smile on her face. But now she had to go and check to see if Naruto was okay.

But an enemy ninja had taken this chance to sneak up on her from behind. The male shinobi aimed his blade at her back. However, Buntan had a surprise for the idiot. "Lighting Sheild."

The shinobi struck the shield and screamed out in pain as the yellow lighting zapped him to a crisp.

"Dad, I'm going to go check on Naruto!" Not giving her father any time to answer, she ran off.

"Wait! It's not safe." Raiga shouted, but his words simply bounced off Buntan's ears as she ran to the location of the battle. "I guess I should go too, maybe this will be a good time to eliminate that brat. He's got to be tired after such a battle." Now was the perfect time for some sneak attack. No one would question how Naruto died in a war such as this one.

XXX

Kagura lay beaten and on the brink of death. His breath came out ragged and one of his lungs collapsed from what he could feel. The boy could only see out of one eye and his ribs were broken. "D-damn dying hurts."

Floating in the now bloody pool of water, was Kraken's bisected octopus head. It seems that only a single blow from Naruto's whatever that was.

Killed him basically.

With power like this, Naruto would surely go on to win the war and his people could be saved. And they would soon go on to purge the country and make their nation truly the strongest. Since that was his dream after all. It was only a shame he wouldn't be able to see it through.

Landing slowly on the ground as the Sussano faded off his body, Naruto slowly walked to the dying form of Kagura. Naruto's face showed no emotion as he came closer to the dying form of Kagura. But he was still on guard, ready for anything if need be.

"You b-beat me Naruto…I'm dying." Kagura weakly said, coughing up more blood from his damaged body.

Naruto stayed silent as he looked at Kagura slowly fading in and out of consciousness. Holding on, still clinging on to life. But why?

Naruto got closer and took a knee next to him. "I won."

Kagura turned and gave Naruto a bloody smile. "You did, I know your mom will be p-proud." He was interrupted by a bloody cough. "Say, Naruto. Can you do me a favor?"

"What is it?"

"Call me Brother, one time."

"...Why?"

Kagura scowled. "C'mon, why you a-asking me question when I'm about to die, you dick."

"I don't use that word lightly, it's something only reserved for the members of my clan." Naruto informed Kagura with a heavy heart. What did he see Kagura as? Rival, Friend? Enemy?...Brother.

"Well if you must know, you are my only friend. Everyone else is scared of me." Kagura sadly said voice dripping with sorrow and pain. "But with you it was different, we connected. I enjoyed fighting you, bantering with you. It was like having a real brother."

"You see me as your Brother? Why?" Naruto asked, begged almost.

Kagura chuckled one last time. "Hurry, Brother. Just say it, one time." It was now Kagura's turn to beg as he looked at Naruto with all the hope he had left.

"Brother Kagura."

At hearing his name said, Kagura smiled one last time as he felt overjoyed. "Thank you Brother, Win this war, and save the country. I believe in you."

"I will." Naruto said placing his hand over Kagura's heart as the boy slowly closed his eyes peacefully, ignoring the pain his body was in.

Naruto then activated Kamui and sucked Kagura's body into his personal pocket dimension. Landing behind Naruto was Shisui, Buntan, Ameyuri, Raiga,

"You okay kid, that battle was pretty intense." Shisui said walking on the bloody sand as his feet collected the wet sand.

"I'll get over it." Naruto stood up again and observed the battle still waging on. "How's everything going?"

"We won, this war is over." Shisui answered his younger brother.

"As expected." Naruto then turned to face Raiga who looked away once again. "Expose this traitor." Naruto pointed his finger at Raiga with a glare.

The man flinched, Hard. He looked ready to run away any second. But he couldn't do that, he had no chance of escape. His best bet would to be to lie. "What are you talking about?! How am I a traitor."

"No need to keep this act up any longer. I know you've been leaking information to Yagura about our plans." Naruto coldly stated. As his red Sharingan eyes pierced the man's soul.

Raiga fearing the worst tightly shut his eyes and looked away. "Liar!"

"Then why do you shy away from my eyes, Scum." Naruto walked towards the man with Safuyu humming with chakra.

Until Buntan got in his way with her sword ready for a fight. "What is this nonsense you speak? My dad isn't a traitor!" Glaring holes into Naruto.

"Listen, he's not the man you want him to be." Naruto said to the girl who was blindly defending her father. "Why would I lie about something like this? He's no good."

"Naruto, how do you know this to be true?" Ameyuri asked, surprisingly being calm about the whole situation.

"When he got here, I was told he was not shocked to see Uchiha. But when he saw me on the street the other day, He was shocked to see me."

"Meaning, he already knew Naruto was captured and probably going to die." Shisui finished sending killing intent to Raiga who began to shake.

Buntan shook her head and stumbled back, all of this serving to overwork her brain. What they said were lies! Her dad wasn't a traitor. Buntan turned to face her dad who was still looking away from the two Uchiha.

"Dad, what they're saying is lies right?! Their lying!" Buntan screamed at her dad with desperation, begging for it all to be a lie, or that they got the wrong guy. "Ameyuri-sensei, you don't believe them, do you? Tell them they're wrong!" Buntan gripped her sensei's arms in panic.

Nobody moved as Buntan slowly started to sob in her hands. The sight of the normally strong girl collapsing was not something they liked seeing. But this was all because of Raiga. If he wasn't a traitor and a decent father, none of this would have happened. And Buntan could have been a much happier person.

"Activate it."

"Already on it."

Shisui held up a handsign and activated his sharingan. With a pulse of his chakra, the genjutsu Shisui laid dormant on Raiga had activated.

"No! What did you do?!" Buntan went to attack Shisui but was blocked by Naruto.

"We just activated a genjutsu on him, We knew he was a traitor three days ago when we exposed him." Naruto said. "This genjutsu will only allow him to tell the truth, Just believe in me? I wouldn't lie about something like this."

Talking face to face, Naruto and Buntan stared at each other in the eyes for a good minute. She could see the truth and sincerity in those crystal black eyes of his, while Naruto could see the begging hope for all this to be a lie in her teal blue eyes.

"Just listen to him." Naruto moved Buntan's sword, the sword he had specially crafted for her. Was she going to cut him down with that katana? How poetic would that be?

"Fine." She spat. "But you better not be playing any games or you're dead."

"Hmph."

"Raiga. You are a spy correct?" Shisui asked, not needing to hold any handsigns for someone so weak.

"Yes." The man droned.

Buntan's heart quaked as her eyes grew wide. This was impossible! It just couldn't be. Why would her dad turn traitor of all things?

Ameyuri soured as she resided the urge to cut the man open. How could he do that to his daughter? "Fucking asshole."

"You have been leaking information about the rebellion to Yagura, correct?"

"Yes."

"You lied to us about everything correct?"

"Yes."

"Why?"

"Because I hate you all. I hate bloodline users. Yagura-sama was correct. You are all devils in human skin. Monsters."

"Stop it! I don't want to hear anymore." Buntan yelled in rage, however, there was a staggering sadness in her voice that could not be mistaken. "Take off the genjutsu, I want to talk to him."

Shisui could do that for the girl. So he released the genjutsu. The man was going to die anyway.

"What did you do?! You forced those things on me?" Raiga yelled stepping back.

"Dad, why did you do all those things?" Buntan asked head down.

Raiga looked at his daughter. You'd expect him to show some signs of remorse, but he showed none. "If the cats already out of the bag, I'll just be honest." Raiga closed his eyes and took a deep breath."

"I hate this place."

Simple, but he got the point across. Raiga hated his own daughter.

"D-did you not love me?"

"Hell no. I don't even care about you. You're worth means nothing to me."

"So was it all a lie?" Buntan asked, voice shaking and raw with emotion.

"Yes, I hope you all die and come to understand the true terror of Yagura-sama, you pieces of shit!"

"Bastard! That's your own daughter." Ameyuri yelled in anger."

"So! I don't care!"

"All this time, you've been acting." Buntan began to shake and the clouds above began to gather in a storm.

"Bunbun is about to blow. Nice." Naruto mentally smirked while outside his face did not change from its plain visage.

"I have, It was killing me to pretend as if I actually cared for you. I don't love you, I don't care for you, and you were just a mistake." Raiga words cut deep. It was like he was internally trying to break his own daughter's will. He was scum, truly someone who needed to die.

And Buntan would deliver it to him.

"Die you piece of shit father!" Buntan screamed with all her might and anger. Placing her sword above, lighting fell from the sky striking the red katana. "Tunneling Fang!" Spinning in a spiral, Buntan moved forward too fast for Raiga to react as she tunneled through the bastard like he was made from cheap wood.

Raiga could only widen his eyes as blood spilled from his gut like a fountain. In the center of his chest was a large hole revealing his insides to the world. A rather gruesome death as bones fell from the hole landing on the ground. His organs began to fall with wet plops and he soon fell into his own pool of blood.

"You fucker!" Ameyuri came and kicked Raiga clean in the face just cause.

"I truly hold no remorse for people like you." Naruto softly mumbled. "I hope you suffer in Hell."

They all turned their back on the dying man. Raiga tried to speak but only blood came up as his lungs were destroyed.

Buntan started to shake as she was about to break down again. Ameyuri being the best sensei she could be. Quickly enveloped the girl in a tight hug. "Don't worry sweetheart, it's going to be okay."

Seeing Ameyuri be so kind and gentle was a shock to Shisui. He didn't think she was capable of something so gentle. Always seeing Ameyuri as this badass bitch who couldn't be touched. Well, that's how she put it at least. Shisui started to ponder the future. Ameyuri would make a great mother if she could be so loving.

Shisui blushed at his thoughts. He shook his head rapidly. Now was not the time to be thinking like that. These feelings would have to be explored afterward.

"Okay, let's regroup with Captin Harribel and await further instructions." Naruto said getting everyone back on track.

"Hey, Naruto." He turned at the soft voice calling his name. He saw Buntan looking away from him and rubbing at her arm. "I-I'm…"

"Come on, it's not hard." Naruto taunted.

Buntan glared as her cheeks turned red. "I am s-s-sorry!"

"Whatever."

"Wha! What do you mean whatever! After I apologized that's all you can say! I was trying to say sorry for doubting you like that and almost killing you."

"You. Almost kill me?" Naruto laughed. "Don't be stupid." He continued walking ignoring the fuming girl.

"You eggplant-haired bastard. Wait till-"

"You didn't need to apologize to me. You just believed in your father, even if it was misplaced. I don't hold what you did against me and I never will." Naruto turned and surprisingly hugged Buntan. "Don't ever feel like you need to apologize for something you believed to be valid."

Buntan's eyes watered as she hugged him back, ignoring the bloody armor he was wearing. "Thank you, thank you for being my friend. It means so much to me!"

Omake: Sengen-sama Alter

Naruto found himself in a strange world as he looked around at the colorful scene. "Where am I?"

He heard an angelic chuckle followed by a melodious female voice. "You're in my domain."

Turning around, Naruto saw a...words couldn't even describe who he was looking at. She was perfect, unmatched beauty. Silky jet black hair falling to her kness but somehow being carried by the wind. Her skin was a soft unblemished pale complemented by her just as black eyes that contained a mature playfulness in them. Sengen wore an off-the-shoulder kimono that was crimson red and made from the richest fabrics. her nails and toe nails were painted red adding a pop of color to her alluring outfit.

Naruto couldn't help himself, He blushed but only slighly as he started the approaching beauty. "How I've longed to meet you, Naruto-kun~" The woman trailed a finger down the side of his face.

"W-who are you?" Naruto asked stepping back on gaurd.

The woman smiled and put a hand to her mouth. "Oh my, how could I embarrasse my self like this? I am Sengen, the Mother of All Uchiha." She then winked at him. "But you can call me Mommy." Naruto found himself being pulled by some force into the women's exposed chest.

Oh my Days! Another long one. I promise I don't do this on purpose, the story really just be getting away from me sometimes.

Now gon head and comment cause I know you got something to say:)

Sveznalica- Means Know All, In Croation.

But so much of this chapter happened out of order or not how I wanted to it. Like Mira's confession was supposed to be after the two day time skip, right before they left for the mission. But as I was making the scene, I kinda just slipped it in because Naruto couldn't not meet Mira(Female Lead).

And as for Sengen-sama. I will clear some things up and also answer any question you have with a pm.

1. She will not fight, shawty is just a very important background figure. She won't pop back up again until later anyways until they get you know who. All you will hear of her is maybe the occasional squeal from her as she gushes over Naruto.

2. She won't be paired with Naruto. She actually didn't even turn out how I wanted her to be. I planned for her to be one of those MATURE women that are a little flirty. I also planned for her to be much darker and cruel. Since she is the Uchiha goddes and everything. but I like how she is now, I'll show you how I wanted her and Naruto to meet.

3. Sengen is a real goddess from Japannesee mythology. Konohanasakuya-hime this is her real name and Sengen is just something she went by, plus it was way more easy to say.

hope that clears some things up, and if you ain't got it by now, then you just don't got it.

Song of the day- Mr. Rager (Kid Cudi)

You Know!
