NARUTO: THE GOD OF UNITY
Disclaimer: Don't own Naruto or High School DxD, or anything else mentioned on here, except any OCs.
Hey folks, here is the next chapter, sorry it took a while, had a lot of stuff to take of like bills, groceries, classes, grown up stuff, while very little time to act like a kid.
By the way, if I didn't say this already in the other chapter, until Chapter 9 or 10, this well be a open forum fic, meaning that between this, and the said chapters, I am willing to take suggestions on how to build this story, with the things I'm doing below, I'll tell you what I need. By the mentioned chapters, I'll shrink the gap to simple suggestions that I would take into consideration.
Anyway, got a poll up on what girls to add to Naruto's harem/peerage, doesn't have to be both, and willing to add more options to the list, just give me a name and what series they're from. And to let you know, they can be from Japanese anime or American Cartoons, old or new, doesn't matter, just please, none of the new stuff on Cartoon Network, not even Adult Swim, since chances are, they would contradict what I have going on now. Also, no girls from Gaiden, especially their kids, since it would be too weird to write about and not too fond of the direction Kishimoto decided to take Naruto to.
I am going to drop the age thing from the first chapter, make everybody canon age, because since Naruto well become an immortal, then a god, later on, what's the point? Besides, if anybody starts to suggest girls way younger then Naruto, like Hanabi and Konou, I'm not going to cross any kind of lines when it comes to them, instead, I'm going to make sure they have a chance to grow up first, to where they start off with a bit of a crush on Naruto, yet grow to love, and nothing beyond kissing happens until they reach adult age. Girls a year or two younger then Naruto, like Koneko, well follow the same rule.
Somebody suggested bringing in Tatsuki to the harem, as Sasuke's sister, mainly because she would be the perfect counter for what I got planned for Sasuke in this fic, but I am also thinking about other options for who to fill as Sasuke's sister, like say Tifa from FF7, while still taking suggestions. The girl doesn't have to be Sasuke's twin, she could be his older, not as a replacement for Itachi, or younger sister, just be a bit more specific. If Tatsuki gets the most review suggestions/poll votes, she's in the harem, as well as Sasuke's sister, if not, well, I'm thinking of pairing her off with say, Rock Lee because not only would she learn martial arts from Might Guy, but also serve as the perfect counter for Lee by keeping his attitude at bay. That or Shikamaru, can picture her getting along perfectly with Yoshino, in terms of getting their guys to get off their ass more.
For the bashing, well, while Sasuke, Kiba, Neji, and a few others well get bashed, these well be the ones that get some character growth, mainly the ones that start off foul with a lot of folks, including their families and a good portion of their clans, yet after a while, grow up to become better people, also Sasuke won't be turning evil for any reason, just goes through a ton of reality checks before something clicks in the future about what he has been doing most of his life. The clans as a whole won't get bashed, especially the Uchiha and the Hyuga, just the ones, like a good portion of the Civilian Council, the ones who think they are better then everyone because of their status/ Fugaku and Hiashi will not be bashed in this, they'll be good men who have tough jobs, and care about especially their families, especially considering the fact that their wives, Mikoto and Akiko, would do to them if they can't separate clan matters from family matters. Which also means, with what his mother and sister would do to him if he so much as thinks about deserting the village, he would be in for some serious pain.
For the world that the story is going to be in, except for Soul Society and the God realm, it's going to be a big mixture of other series into one, still trying to figure out the how on some parts, and open to ideas. While the shows that the Gods represent well be the primary focus, I am open to introducing characters from other series, wither animated, comic, video game, or almost any other kind of format. Mainly, giving this fic something close to the Disney Infinity approach, minus the figures of course. One big mix and match, especially since I plan to throw in some space themes, and maybe a few more dimensions.
And speaking of the gods, Since I introduced you to Kami, Kaguya, Great Red and Yamamoto, here are the final two: Tsunami, from Tenchi Muyo, and to let you know, even though she would have been changed no matter what, I never read Tenchi Muyo, and just using what I can get from the wikias, so feel free to correct me if I get anything wrong when it comes to certain parts. She'll be the one responsible for bringing magic into the world, along with anything else anybody wants to throw in that they believe well help with the main story. The other is Deadpool, yes the same Marvel character that is on every characters death list, heroes and villains alike, and even though, as a God, since he can't be killed so easily, he can come close to it, or look like it, after the other Gods get pushed past the breaking point. While everything about him is about the same, and until I at least watch the movie, I'm going to start him off as a toned down version of himself, mainly because since he is supposed to have a soft spot for kids, then he knows when to tone it down, that and he knows better than to tangle with an angry mama, no matter what race. Down the road, when Naruto and some of his girls, and friends, get older, then he starts to grow into his 'charming' self, or at least, my version of him. Or to put it more simply, he is just a glorified comic relief, who has nothing to contribute, other than being the cause for why the people in the world are the way they are. The rest, well, you'll find out after I figure out how to write it.
The harem, well, it stays the same as the one from the last one, and it's not going to change anytime soon. As for my choices for new additions, from the Naruto World, well, Hotaru and Izumi Uchiha (No it's not a female Itachi, since he well be in this fic as a male. She's an actually character in the canon, look it up.) From DxD, since I brought in Raynare, might as well bring in her cohorts, Kalawarner and Mittelt, along with Ophis and Lilith. The final two well be DC's own Harley Quinn and Kara Zor-El/Supergirl, although wondering if I try to throw in something a bit similar. Like I said, open to suggestions, just make sure to include the name of the series, so that way, when I add them to the poll, it would cause less confusion for the voters. And who knows, I might throw some in this story that just popped into my head.
Here is the new change for Naruto's peerage:
King-Naruto
Gold Generals(2x)- Ravel Phenex,
Silver General(2x)s-Rias Gremory, Vegeta
Bishop-Orhime
Rook-KonekoToujou
Knights(2x)-Iron Man, Shauna Namikaze
Lances(2x)- Batman, Ryu Hayabusa
Pawns(9x)-Goku, Harley Quinn, Ophis, Lilith,
And here is what I got plan for the pieces that aren't in chess: The Lances are going to be a bit like pawns, but don't need permission to gain another piece's ability, yet can also change at will when need to, but also, more like ninjas to where the main focus is on stealth and info gathering, and who better than somebody like Batman to be multitasking on the field. The generals, well a tough one, but they would be like the queen in chess, with the same powers, but the Gold ones get double, while the Silver ones get about a quarter. As for some of my choices, well Vegeta, being more brains then Goku, well who better to be a general, and also, give somebody like Rias a bit of a rival in terms of experience in the battlefield. Harley Quinn as a pawn, well, when it comes to her, how easy do you think it would be for somebody to underestimate her. Still need suggestions on who to fill in the gaps with, so please share, and want plenty of variety, wither male, female, robot, alien, hero, villain, whatever.
Anyway, now on with the story.
Konoha-Hokage's Office
Minato Namikaze is at his desk, going over the day's paperwork, just doing his typical duties as a Kage, before looking up at the kids in his office. In the middle, a boy with golden blonde hair that puts his hair to shame, named Naruto (And no whisker marks in this fic), somebody who was entrusted into his family's hands for a little over five years now, with on his left and right, along with his own daughter Shauna, who looked like a mini-Kushina, with the exception being the whiskers on her cheeks, were a trio of other girls, Izumi Uchiha, Sakura Haruno and Hinata Hyuga. While it's hard to believe is that the gods chose his family to raise a boy who would have a big effect on so many lives in the universe, yet at the same time, he was glad that he and his wife would be trusted with such a task, especially with all the joy both kids brought into their lives.
Flashback
After bringing in the group of individuals into his home, once sensing that these are the people you don't want to make a bad first impression with, he called for one of the nearby ANBU to call in the Sannin over to give him some kind of support. (Orochimaru is going to be a good guy in this, trying for a different approach, where he decided to not take the white snake myth too seriously and live his life.) Although he gave the ANBU permission to use 'extreme' measures on the one who was also his sensei once upon a time.
Turning towards his guests, who haven't removed their hoods, "I hope you don't mind me bringing in some last minute guests." Minato said, trying to keep the peace.
"Not at all," Kami said, as he removed his hood, looking kind of like a Martian to those seeing him for the first time, a bit of a serious look on his face. The rest followed suit, one by one. One head being a woman that is so white, she would get lot in the snow, next is a man who is supposed to look a bit like royalty, next is a man with a long white beard that reaches the ground, looking like he is older than time itself, than a woman with long, ocean blue hair, while sporting a motherly look, and finally a man wearing a full head mask, Which was mostly red, with big round black spots surrounding white eyes, causing Minato and Kushina to feel nervous, "We did pretty much come from out of nowhere and demand to speak with you."
Sensing on how the pair were shivering, Kaguya spoke up, while pointing towards the masked individual, "Don't worry about him, he is mostly harmless, unless somebody gives him a reason to." She said, while keeping the next part, 'Or because he gets bored.' In her head, figuring that would cause more harm than good.
Just as everybody took a seat in the living room, an expected knock was heard. Minato got up to answer it, revealing the three people he requested: Orochimaru, Tsunade and, sporting a black eye, his sensei Jiraiya. Seeing how it was his student to interrupt his research, "Okay kid, what is so important that you had to call out the ANBU?" The Toad Sage asked.
"You're just in time to find out." Minato said, as he lead his chosen guests to the living room. When they got to their seats, although some of the guests had to take chairs from the dining room, Minato decided to start introductions, "Okay, since you six seem to already know me and my Kushina, let me introduce you to three of my most trusted people in the village: Orochimaru, Tsunade, and Jiraiya."
"Ah yes, the girly man, the drunk and the so called super pervert." Red said, causing the three sannin to give her a slightly offended look, even though she was right on about their main descriptions.
"Now, now Red," Tsunami said, making sure no violence breaks out, "Be polite, even though two of them have questionable hobbies."
Despite the chuckling from the couple in the room, Kushina giving off a louder giggle, Kami decided to get back to business, before they begin to lose track of their original purpose, especially since the 'bundle' in his arm was started to stir. "Okay, before we start an all-out battle of egos, shall we get started on why we came here?" Causing Red and Tsunami to give a famished look on their faces, "And I believe the little one is starting to wake up."
Her motherly instincts making her through all caution out the window, "Little one?" Kushina asked, or maybe, by her tone, she is hoping to hold something cute in her arms, letting her girly side take over.
Giving a small smile, Kami gently raised his free arm and used the hand attached to it to lift what revealed to be a blanket up, to reveal a baby boy, just as it gave a slight movement to indicate that he was indeed waking up. After getting a good look at the golden blonde hair on the child, just before his eyes opened to reveal them to be bluer then a diamond. "Meet Naruto." Kami said, as he introduced the young one.
Giving a slight gasp due to cuteness overload, Kushina stood up, her motherly instincts reaching its breaking point. "May I hold him?" She asked, while Tsunade was trying her hardest to keep her girly side contained.
"Yes, you can." Kami said, gently lifting little Naruto up, just as Kushina came up, and took the boy gently into her arms, causing a chuckle from most of the room when she started to talk baby talk with Naruto, while making faces, well except for Deadpool, when *Crash!* he learned the hard way why you should never make fun of a pregnant lady who still has her skills as a ninja, especially if she can chuck a nearby vase at his head without even looking.
Deciding to continue for his friend, Yamamoto cleared his throat, "Now for the reason why we are here, but first we need to introduce ourselves." He said, "We are the true Gods of Paladaiseu." When he noticed the doubtful looks on the mortals' faces, while a little agitated at being doubted, nobody can blame them considering they have little to no contact with any of the inhabitants, along with the butt out policy they kept enforcing. "Look, we all know the two words going through your minds are 'prove it' yet we are not going to just to satisfy someone's expectations."
While none of the mortals were pleased with what was said, they nodded at this because the problem is, some people have too high of expectations when it comes to Gods, that some wouldn't believe it, even if it's right in front of their eyes. "Understandable and we won't push the issue." Minato said. "So would you please introduce yourselves individually?"
Getting a nod from the Gods, they each introduced themselves, along with what they gave to the world. They started off with Kami, with his intro of Ki and the basis for martial arts, Kaguya Ĺtsutsuki, who brought in the base for everything mostly ninja, from chakra and jutsu to bloodlines and the tailed beasts, Red along with Summons and Nature Chakra, Yamamoto, and he made them nervous after hearing that he is not only the head Shinigami, but also that he isn't the only reaper around, Tsunami, who brought in the magic element to the world, along with showing more peaceful solutions, and Deadpool, who only gave his name, but the other gods called him a bit of a deadbeat who has both his good and bad points, yet is the cause for most of the bad stuff in the world, primarily due to sheer stupidity and him having a big mouth.
"And little Naruto over there is the main reason why we are here, mainly his future." Kaguya said, getting their attention, "Basically, you could say he was created out of thin air when we decided to release some of our powers into something that is completely well, the only word we can use to describe it is unknown, that came with instructions that said use in a time of extreme need, and that was when we believed that it might refer to Naruto."
"And that is all the information we are willing to share with you, since the rest is meant for Naruto when he is old enough to know everything." Red said, before looking around, noticing that they were missing a certain masked individual, "Where did Deadpool go?" He also noticed a slight scent in the air, "And were you two just about to have dinner?"
This was when a loud 'Hey, your wasabi and goat cheese ramen tastes pretty good," A loud voice was heard in the kitchen, "But it would taste better if it was a chalupa flaver."
This was when the words 'Oh shit.' Ran through the mind of everybody except two individuals, and thanks to Tsunami's quick thinking, she was able to pull Naruto out of Kushina's arms, just as said person, who looked like she was about to explode, ran into the kitchen. "Hey you, what do you think you're doing eating my food!" Was heard throughout the house."
"What, you mean you weren't going to serve guests?" Was heard from Deadpool.
"Oh you're right." Kushina said, while those who knew her better knew what was coming next, "Let me give you a knuckle sandwich for compensation."
.After a punch was heard, some were surprised to hear Deadpool say "What, no cheese?"
"Yeah, along with my foot up your ass!" Kushina yelled out while she continued dishing out her own brand of justice.
Looking at the Gods, Yamamoto spoke up "Don't ask, it's not worth the headache."
Deciding to move on, Orochimaru decided to ask a question that has been on his mind, "Do you gods mind if I ask you a question or two?" After getting a slight nod from Kami, "If you brought in all this stuff like Ki, Chakra and Magic, how is that there seems to be different energy forms that don't seem to fit your criteria? And why is it that only certain individuals, and sometimes certain races, are only allowed to use only one or two of the things you mentioned?"
Kami answered this, "We're not entirely of sure of the answer to both questions." He said, "For the first, we believe over times, life is forced to change and adapt to a few things, especially thanks to certain individuals awakening something new."
"As for the second," Tsunami continued, "Chances are we might be the cause for all that or rather, the limitations of power so to speak." She explained, while Naruto is looking around at his surroundings, "To put it simply, despite what people believe, we didn't create this world, somebody else did, along with us. When chakra, ki and magic, along with a few other things are added to the world, when we started out, we watched as it had side effects, to where not only did humans start to form, but also dove wings (angels), raven wings (fallen), devils, yokai, so many creatures living in this world, that it was probably a way to make sure certain powers are tributed randomly at certain limits in order to avoid any kind of unwanted catastrophe."
"And what about the tailed beasts?" Tsunade asked, "I take it them becoming some village's weapon by being sealed into some child."
Kaguya answered after she let out a small sigh, "They were originally the guardians of this world, making sure to look over things and be ready to help out when needed." She then gave a small sigh, "But unfortunately, like some kids, when they have minds of their own, they tend to have their own personalities, from lazy to arrogant, yet they never pushed their luck considering what I would do to them if they started to act all high and mighty."
Nearby, while Kushina is catching her breath after protecting her ramen from a thief, inside of a seal on her belly, Kyubi heard everything that his mother has said, and gave off a slight shiver, because he can recall some of those disciplinary actions, and he knows what would be waiting for him when he finally does become free from his prison.
"So what went wrong?" Jiraiya asked.
"Humans who didn't like the idea of other beings have so much actual power over them." Kaguya answered, "All it started was for some sleazy human, an advisor no less, to convince his leader that it would be better and more beneficial for their village if they can harness the powers of the tailed beasts to help improve their military strength, even going as far as calling them demons in order to discredit everything good that was ever done by them." She then pointed towards where Deadpool is lying, "And thanks to that bozo, after helping himself to an early Uzumaki containment seal, they were able to pull off making the first jinchuuriki."
"And were you the reason why the biju's chakra is so toxic to the touch?" Tsunade asked.
"No, once again, it was because of that idiots doing." Kaguya said, referring to Deadpool, "Although he had some help from this fool." Pointing out towards Red who had a famished look on his face, "While I was creating them, and getting the right amount of chakra they need, which started off as clean, well, they were fighting over a bottle of Dragon's Breath hot sauce, and ended up spilling a good portion of it onto the tailed beasts just as they were about to be finished, which in turn, which is why their chakra is dangerous to the touch."
This caused a loud *thump!* to be heard when the mortals, including Kushina, to faint, while causing a sweat drop to appear on the five god's heads, plus a giggle from Naruto, although they can't blame them for finding out the one unexpected truth about the tailed beasts.
After recovering, and not believing he can any more surprises, Minato decided to get things back on track. "So you were saying Naruto was the reason why you're here." He said.
Deciding to go straight to the point this time around, Kami answered "Yes we would like for you and your wife to raise and care for young Naruto here."
Minato was proven wrong with the surprise part, considering the shocked on his face. "Care to repeat that?" Asking the question to confirm what he just heard.
Tsunami decided to answer, giving Minato a more subtle explanation, "We would like for you and your wife to raise little Naruto here." She said, while Naruto is too young to have any idea what is going on, "You see, while Naruto was created by gods, we decided to start him off as a mortal, and since he is a human child, we decided to have him raised with a human family."
"And why us in particular?" Minato asked.
Kaguya answered that question, "Because after much searching, we believe that you and your wife would raise Naruto in a way that would ensure a positive future not just for him, but also for the rest of Paladaiseu." She started to explain, "You see, while we won't tell you everything yet, we would prefer to tell him when he becomes of a certain age, and we can fill in of everything that he needs to know, along with everybody else connected to him. That way, we don't have to worry about lose lips." She then focused all three eyes on him, "So well you raise him."
While he would have liked to asked for a little time to discuss it with his wife, "You bet we well." Apparently he got overruled, just as Kushina decided take, he guess, their new son into her arms. Deciding to ask questions now, "Is there anything we need to know now?"
Yamamoto stepped in, "Yes, while the boy is human now, when he starts puberty that is when he starts to gain his immortality and that well be when everything changes, not just his life, his body as well, and when the time comes, is when we'll start taking a more active role in his life." He explained, "Between then and now, you can raise him as a son, train him, love him, give him the love and family we won't be able to because our positions would just make things more difficult. We well drop every once in a while to visit, even give Naruto a little something to help with his growth, especially if a bloodline or two were to awaken sometime in the future."
After realizing what he, himself, Kushina, and his unborn child, were about to get themselves into, especially reading between the lines that pretty much said that he was allowed to adopt Naruto into his family, and not just on paper. "Well, I do as you say and do my best to raise Naruto as if he were our own child, alongside our own child." Getting a sign of gratitude from the five of them, the sixth is just standing up after his beating, sounds of bones fixing themselves can be heard, "And is there anything else we need to know now?"
This time, Red decided to speak up, wanting to finally speak up since everybody else, well, almost everybody, are able to explain everything better then him, "Not at the moment, but you'll find out whenever the right moments make themselves known." After getting understands from everyone, except for Kushina who was enjoying her start as a mother, "Oh and hey perv, nice work on your Icha Icha Pregnant Edition."
Flashback Ends
And since then, aside from the sever beating that his sensei got from his wife after she found out once again that she was used for his research, Naruto served as a bit of a warm up for Shauna, although he could have done without Naruto happening to open fire when it became time his diaper. To this day, he can still swear that Naruto does it on purpose, especially timing it where he can aim for the inside of his mouth, although everybody thought he was just imagining things. When Shauna was born about four months later, unfortunately, their happy moment had to wait until the appearance of somebody claiming to be Madara Uchiha showed up.
To put it simply, he came, took extreme measures to kidnap Kushina, and release the Kyubi to wreak havoc onto the city, yet Minato ending up getting help from the gods to where not only thanks to the help of Deadpool and Kaguya in fighting Madara and saving his family, but also with Tsunami in healing Kushina, and afterwards, Biwako and the guards, to make sure no family end up getting the sad news, and with Yamamoto, along with the help of Kaguya scaring Kyubi out of his hypnosis with her voice alone, Kyubi was sealed into Shauna, with both using a better seal that would be a temporary fix.
Watching the children with a smile, Minato couldn't help but be glad that both his adopted son and biological daughter are getting along so well, considering that they have been cuddling together since both were about 1years olds, they both love each other as siblings, and are the best of friends, you hardly see them separated, especially when it came to getting them started on training, or rather some of the basics that can only be taught in the family/clan. Even now, while Naruto is gaining some new friends, a good portion of them are girls, the two are still pretty close, although judging by the blush on his daughter's face, their relationship might evolve into something more, meaning that whatever talk that he and Kushina were hoping to save for the future would have to come sooner.
While he is glad that the kids are having a good time, even though the two came back with some friends after he gave them some money to get some treats, "You know Naruto, when I sent you to the candy store, while I don't mind you bringing back a few friends, but I didn't send you to buy out most of the store." He said, which indeed was the case since there was a big pile of candy sitting on top of the table in front of the kids, from chocolates and caramels to Daifuku and Higashi (Basically, a nice worldly selection of sweets) . Right now, he can picture the chewing out he was going to get from Kushina and the other mothers for the sugar crash and burn heading their way.
"Well I wasn't planning on it pop, but I was outvoted." Naruto said.
"And how were you outvoted?" Minato asked, getting a sneaky suspicion on the how.
Giving the two girls closest to him a slight elbow, "Girls, want to show him." Naruto said, which resulted in four sets of puppy dog eyes pointing towards the Hokage, and in extension, the ANBU in the room.
Shauna, with her eyes going on full, said "Can you get us something to drink? we forgot to buy some." Even adding a tear and a sniffle for effect.
Without waiting for an order, the two male ANBU left to go grab something to drink. Seeing that he should hit the brakes, "Okay girls, turn them off, we've made our point." Naruto said. When the girls shook their heads to go back to their regular faces, "And funny thing is, the ANBU, even Kakashi, were more than willing to pay for everything, and I still have the money you gave me." He said, just before reaching into his pocket.
Minato raised his hand, "Keep it, you might need it later on." He said, while he was thinking 'Dear God, another Kushina has made herself known.' While going back to all the times that Kushina would use that technique to her advantage, especially on somebody like Hiruzen.
Shauna spoke up, "Hey Dad, why are we here?" She asked, "You said that there was some people coming here, bringing some new friends, but I don't get what the big deal is."
"Yeah, it's like you have something you don't want to tell us." Naruto said.
"And how many more friends does Naruto need anyway?" Sakura asked, "He already has plenty of friends."
"And most of them are girls." Izumi said, causing a slight moan, because they don't realize the feelings of jealousy and defending one's territory flowing through them.
While Minato knew the real reason behind all the new friends coming to Konoha, who happened to be girls, but he wasn't sure how to put it in a way that a bunch of kids would understand. While Jiraiya volunteered, he got a punch in the face by an angry Kushina as a hell no.
As if answering his prayers for a reprieve from having to give the kids a half-truth, "Lord Hokage, your wife is here with a few guests." Came out of the intercom from his secretary.
"Thank you, Martha." Minato answered when he pushed the button.
When the door opened, it revealed a pregnant Kushina, with Red, Tsunami, and two girls about the same age as his own. Kushina is on her third month, due to the fact that after finding out her friend Akiko Hyuga, wife of Hiashi, was a couple of months pregnant with their 2nd child, Kushina decided to drag his ass to spend a week making sure to milk him dry so that she can have another kid, right after handing the kids to Mikoto, saying watch them. Took Minato two weeks afterwards to fully recover afterwards, not just in strength, but also, a fractured pelvis.
"Hello Kushina," Minato greeted his wife with a kiss, grossing the kids out a bit. Turning to the guests that came with Kushina, since they have a hand in this upcoming meeting as well, "Red, Tsunami, nice to see you two again." He turned to the two girls, both sporting a bit of a goth look, (And to let you know, Ophis is, dressed more appropriately, like, not sure if it's the best example, like Lilith, because her canon look is just too disturbing on a 5 year old's body) and looking almost like twins, the exception being that one of them is sporting a pony tail, "And who are these two?"
Red was the one to speak up, "These are my adopted sisters, Ophis and Lilith." He said, both girls giving Minato a respectful bow, "Now why don't you two go join Naruto and his friends over there."
When the two girls left to be with Naruto and the girls, Minato looked at Red, with an eyebrow raised. Sensing some questions coming their way, Tsunami intercepted, "Don't ask, all you need to know is that about a couple of months after that day, he found a couple of eggs that belong to Infinite Dragons, and as far as we can tell, might be the last two." She said, "And for the brother part, well, we all agreed he is too immature to be a father."
"I sense a but coming." Minato said, especially since Kushina is sporting a look that say she has done something that, while he could never be angry at her, especially how tightly wrapped she has him around her finger, would leave him flustered.
"Well let's just say you gained a couple of daughters." Red said, before pointing towards Kushina, "We already cleared it with your boss."
Giving a small sigh, knowing that like before, he is pretty much overruled, yet Kushina has on more than one occasion to make it up to him for being there to do his part. Noticing for the first time, although it might be because his view was obstructed by his two latest members to his family, in Tsunami's right hand is a box, "And what is in there?" Minato asked.
Looking at the box, "Something that we plan to tell you during the meeting." Tsunami said, "Right now, we don't want to have to repeat ourselves, or let certain ears hear things we don't wish for them to hear."
When they turned towards the kids. This was when Kushina finally noticed Mount Sugar Rush on the table, "Why is there so much candy in front of the kids?" She asked, while giving Minato the evil eye, causing him to be nervous.
Naruto ends up saving the man's bacon. "Want to show her girls?" He asked.
When Kushina turned around, she noticed four pairs of puppy dog eyes staring back at her. Putting two and two together, "Oh, so you girls decided to use that technique?" She asked, once they turned it off.
"Yeah, and we ended up having Kakashi and a couple of the ANBU to pay for it." Sakura said.
"And Naruto didn't have to pay a thing." Hinata continued, "And we're still waiting for the ANBU to bring us some drinks."
'Maybe using that technique at Ichiraku's more than once to get free ramen would bite me in the ass sooner than I thought.' Ran through Kushina's head.
This was when the secretary chimed in once again, "Lord Hokage, your appointments are here."
"Thank you let them in." Minato said.
The door opened to reveal three groups of individuals: First being Sirzechs Gremory, one of the four elders to the current Fire Daimyo, Zekram, with his father, Zeoticus, Head of the Gremory Clan, and his only sister, Rias. Then following him, was a pregnant Yasaka,a Nine Tailed Fox in human form, leader of the Youkai faction, who serve as the leaders in the Land of Demons, and a pair of, what Minato, Kushina and the two gods believe, to be Nekoshou, strong forms of Nekomatas, females no less, one that appears to be at least in the late teenage years, Kuroka Toujou, and the youngest by about half the age, Koneko Toujou, who was about a hair shorter then Hinata, all three with their ears and tails sticking out. Finally, Lord Phenex, Head of the Phenex, with his daughter Ravel, who is about the same height as Koneko, who, like the Gremory, live in the Fire Capital. (Everybody pretty much looks the same from DxD, although you would have to picture Rias, Koneko, and Ravel in younger form, and I'm just too lazy to describe them.)
After going through introductions, and handshakes, Tsunami spoke up, "Okay, how about Rias, Koneko and Ravel join the other kids, while the rest of us talk in private?"
Getting a nod from said three, although Koneko was transfixed solely on the big pile of sweets. When they walked up to the other kids, Koneko was pretty close to Naruto, too close for the girls on the couch who knew him longest. When he noticed her, he grabbed at treat and offered it to her, "Want a Hershey's Kiss?" He asked politely.
Koneko looked at the treat briefly, a little surprised that somebody was offering her a treat, so her answer, to the surprise of everybody in the room, was to grab Naruto by the collar of his shirt, and yanked him down to give him a kiss on the lips. This caused a variety of reactions: With the adults, their jaws dropped to the ground, including the two ANBU who came back with an armload of water, while Kuroka recovered quickly to giggle at how Koneko seemed to just declared that she was now Naruto's girlfriend. As for the other girls, well, including the ones who never got a chance to introduce themselves, they were giving Koneko the death glare for stealing the first kiss from Naruto. And to add insult to injury, once she let go, and he leaned back into the couch to recover, being a cat herself, she jumped onto his lap.
Being the first one to recover, since Yasaka had an understanding of most of the Yokai in her territory, "Okay everybody, we aren't going to accomplish anything by standing around." She said, "And I trust that your ANBU can handle things here."
"Oh yeah, they have dealt with my family before." Kushina said, as they walked out towards a private meeting room that wasn't too far from the office, yet designed for the most confidential of meetings outside of the council room. When they arrived inside, and the door was closed, Tsunami and Red send a mixture of magic and senjutsu to get rid of anything that shouldn't be there, which ended up destroying everything that isn't supposed to be there. Sensing they were in the clear, "Okay, now we can get on with business." Red said.
"But first . . ." Tsunami said, giving the guests almost the same introduction they gave to Minato and Kushina, along with how they refuse to prove themselves, "And also, well one would say, somewhere in the future, Naruto well become the seventh god."
After getting some more information about Naruto, Zeoticus spoke up, "And I take it that from those letters you sent to myself and my friend here," Pointing towards Lord Phenex, "You're the ones that not only stopped us from arranging a marriage with our children, but also offered something move beneficial."
"Yes, we did, not just for Naruto's sake, but also for your children's sake." Tsunami said.
Minato where this was going, "You want to give Naruto more arranged marriages don't you?" He asked, causing most of the occupants to go wide eyed at this revelation. The reason he caught on was because through the gods, Naruto already has three of them within the village: From the Uchiha, Hyuga and his own family, along with a warning that there would be more coming in the future.
"Yes, and like before, we plan to throw in the same conditions." Tsunami said.
"And why did you stop us from arranging a marriage with our families?" Lord Phenex asked, "And why did you say to keep my daughter from becoming a member of my son Riser's peerage?"
This was when Tsunami placed the box in her hand onto the table, "Well for one thing, from what we just saw, we are pretty sure young Ravel would rather be on the peerage of her future husband." She said, as she pushed the box into the center of the table, and opened it to reveal shoji pieces, yet they were admitting a power like no other, "We have studied up on your peerage system, and your games, and since we want Naruto to become so well adapted before he reaches godhood, when he gains his immortality, he should be getting his around the same time Rias should get her pieces."
"And what would they become if Naruto is the king?" Kuroka asked.
Red answered this time, "Not entirely sure, but if they are immortal, like devils and Yokai, then they stay as they are, no half anything. As for the mortals, like yours, they would gain immortality." He explained the best he can, "But with Naruto as the king, and being probably the only being in the world to learn it all, his peerage might gain a bit of everything from him, like being able to use chakra, ki, magic, and if trained right, well, things should prove interesting when Naruto has to prove his medal."
Tsunami then regained control, "As for the previous two questions, yes." Turning to the visitors, "You see, while Naruto is going to start his journey from a mortal to a god, going through the good and the bad that life has to offer, the absolute worst thing we could do to him is expect him to become a god, and watch those he cares about, especially the mortals, grow old and die while he continues to live on. Even the immortals have their limitations." Getting an understanding from the rest, "While these pieces would give godhood to the ones in his peerage, it's still his choice on who he would like to be in it, the sad thing is, any girls that joins his peerage well also become something more to him, well be the ones living with him in the home that we are working on for him." Giving a small sigh, "So we're hoping that before he reaches adulthood, that we would find a way to help make the rest of his future wives into goddesses."
"And where well his home be?" Kushina asked, hearing about the home part for the first time.
"It's in a Dimensional Gap we found, that would serve as a way for Naruto, his family, and his peerage to go to, and can only be accessed by them, us, and anybody else they deem worthy." Red took over the explanation, "As for why we stopped the engagement, well no offense Lord Phenex, but your son Riser is growing up to be a real spoiled rotten, perverted brat." Getting an angry look, although his eyes say that he always suspected that truth, "We see how he acts, especially after he got his peerage, and we got the feeling that, if you did try to force a marriage between the two, well unless you taught your son how to treat a wife, and the difference between her and a concubine, then I bet both of you wouldn't live with yourselves for the fate you would Rias to."
Both fathers looked down, while Sirzechs spoke up for the first time, "And after seeing how Rias seems to have reacted after seeing Naruto, especially that kiss, I think she would be in better hands in the future." He said, with a smile on his face.
Tsunami decided to speak up, "But we sent an invitation to just your two families, why are you here, Lady Yasaka?" She asked the Yokai Leader.
"Oh, believe it or not, I'm good friends with Kaguya, and when I found out I was having a daughter, she pointed me to here for some reason, and now I get it." Yasaka answered, while putting a hand on her belly, "You see, since I'm the leader, and with a child, those on my council would try to force me to find her future mate ASAP, even if I have the right to decide at my own pace according to our laws." She then looked at Minato and Kushina, "And seeing how well you two have been raising that boy, even if he is going to be the eye of the storm so to speak, I can picture my little one being in good hands."
"And what about Kuroka and Koneko?" Minato asked.
Kuroka decided to answer, "Well, you see Shirone is my little sister, and also, my only family left since our mother died a couple of years after giving birth, and our father, well, not sure what happened to him." She said, while placing a hand onto her head, having trouble asking somebody for help, "I'm about to go on a long term, undercover mission, and I needed to find somebody to take care of Shirone, even take her in, because this kind of mission is too dangerous for a kid, and Lady Yasaka well have her hands pretty full. So seeing how Koneko acted to that boy Naruto, I was wondering . . ."
"Of course we'll take her in." Kushina said, causing Minato to shake his head, thinking about how much paperwork he was going to have to deal with.
Sirzechs decided to ask, "And how is this arranged marriage different from the others?" Wanting to make sure his sister isn't about to be stuck into something as bad, if not worse, then the one their father had planned.
Minato stepped in, "Well you see, with this arranged marriage, it's designed to build towards a possible marriage, but not forced one." He started to explain, "You see, while we don't plan to tell the kids about this until they are at least about this engagement, mainly give them a chance to be kids, and see how thing s work out. But we don't plan for them to get married until, well the minimum is 18, but by 16, we want Naruto and the girls to start building towards it. Give them a moment to think about it so to speak."
Tsunami took it from there, "When they reach that age, although I get the feeling it would be pretty pointless by then, we want them to decide if they want to get married, by dating, being with each, and see if it's possible to have a future together. If one or both parties aren't willing to go through with it, then they are allowed to part ways, and the girl won't be obligated to pay some kind of restitution." She finished. "While yes, we are forcing Naruto and some of the girls to walk hand in hand, but we won't force them to hold the other's hand if they don't want to."
"And will all of the girls going into the boy's harem be by contract?" Zeoticus asked.
Kushina shook her head, "No, only when it comes to the girls from important families, the rest, well, it's their own choice wither they are willing to take any big risks or not." She explained, "Like Tsunami said, we are making sure that Naruto's family is one of love and respect, while nobody's free will won't be taken from them against their will."
This got a look of relief from the two fathers, because of the fact that their daughters get to have a say in the relationship, along with the fact that their wives won't mangle them for forcing said daughters into a loveless marriage.
"Anyway, if you don't mind staying for a few days, we should be able to arrange a contract between each other, and give Naruto and the girls a chance to get to know each other." Minato said, getting a nod from everyone, "And also, so I can deal with the latest batch of paperwork that just sprung up."
Kushina couldn't help but chuckle at this, because while she knew that Minato would still be a father to the new additions, along with the one on the way, making her grateful for marrying such a man, yet she also knows how every time she puts Minato in a tight spot as a Hokage, she is also taken advantage of him in a really bad way. When they stepped out of the room, "I'm sorry, Minato, I know I'm putting a big strain on you for doing all of this." She said, while giving him a sad look, the one that sizzles out any anger he has and turns him into putty with just one look.
Minato gave a small sigh, knowing that while he can win an argument against those in his village, when it comes to his, she knows how to play him like a fiddle if she wanted to. "It's alright, I know you mean well." He said, getting a happy grin from her, "But I guess I better train Naruto on how to be prepared for Jiraiya-Sensei once he hears the news."
This caused the mood to sour in Kushina, because she knew that perv well be blowing a gasket over the amount of research material that he is being provided out of all of this.
When the adults returned to the office, while things looked calm with the kids, yet at a closer look, except for Koneko who was on Naruto's lap, Lilith, and Ophis, the girls looked like a powder keg was about to explode, and Naruto is hoping to be anywhere but there right now. Looking each other, the adults knew that they would need the week to at least bring some peace, especially for Naruto's sake.
Well, I'll end it here. Sorry it took so long, been busy with college as of late, along with the responsibilities of life, and trying to do a massive crossover fic of this size, well, make things pretty difficult. Anyway, like I said earlier, until chapter 9 or 10 this well be an open forum fic, meaning I'm open to suggestions to building the foundation to this story. If any of you have a suggestion for a series to add to this, along with a way on how they would be added somehow, feel free to let me know, along with suggestions for the poll on the harem, and who to add to the peerage. One more thing, what gender do you want Minato and Kushina's next kid to be? The result well depend on the gender. If a boy, then that would be the last kid Kushina has. If a girl, then that girl would be added to the harem, but I would need a suggestion on what girl, blonde primarily, from which series can you picture to become Shauna's sibling, and Minato and Kushina would get a son as a third and final kid. Read and Review.
