Review Response:
Guest: Thank you for the support.
Redmen6blight: I am happy I was able to do that.
Razberry17: All who bear D are enemies to certain individuals, and are destined to do great things. Kurama liberated slaves and killed two Satan's leading to the end of a War, Kushina ended a war with brute force. Meaning Naruto is going to do something crazy or great, depends on your perspective. Many praise Kurama and Kushina's actions, while many hate them for ending the wars.
Borello: Thank you.
Guest: Surprised no one asked this question more. She died during the two plus years Kuroka served Griffith Naberius.
Harem:
OKAY, LETS READ THIS SHIT! I DON'T OWN NARUTO, ONE PIECE, HIGHSCHOOL DXD OR ANY OTHER ANIME I MAY REFERENCE!

Chapter 8: First Day
Sairaorg walked ahead of his peerage as they neared the entrance of their home with a guest beside the Devil King.
"Master Sairaorg, welcome home."
"Thank you, is mom around?" Sairaorg asked as he looked at the butler.
"Yes, sir, she is upstairs helping our newest family member fill out some data paper work."
The guest chuckled, revealing a deep voice.
"So, the boy is awake?" he asked while he put his hands in his pockets.
"It seems so." Sairaorg stated as he dismissed his peerage before heading to Naruto's room.
Naruto's Room…
"So, we have name, age, gender, race, and parents filled out." Misla said as she looked over the sheet of paper Naruto had partially filled out.
"We still aren't done?" Naruto whimpered as his ears faltered.
He really didn't know why he had to do this paperwork, but he was asked nicely so he complied.
"Sorry, just a bit longer, okay?" Misla said as she handed the paper back to Naruto.
Naruto reread the sheet.
"What piece am I?" Naruto asked curiously, since he vaguely remembered Jiraiya's explanation of the Peerage system.
"You are a Mutated Pawn." Misla replied, which Naruto jotted down. 'His hand writing is not bad, whoever taught him must have been strict.'
"Goals?" Naruto mumbled as he scratched his head.
"Oh, that is optional…" Misla said as Naruto started writing.
Goals:
Open up a Hot Spring Resort
Find my mother's Swords
Master my father's jutsu
Find a Rokushiki master and learn Rokushiki
Learn Haki
Find my childhood friends, Kuroka and Shirone
Have a family
'I think that is it… for now at least.' Naruto thought as he reread his goals, his chest tightening. 'I should go back to Kamabakka and tell Iva about… Jiraiya…'
Naruto's ears drooped, which was seen by Misla as his eyes became saddened before his tail bristled as he heard someone approaching the door.
Standing up, Naruto walked up to the door and opened it as Sairaorg and the guest were turning to face it, surprising the Devil King.
King and Pawn looked at each other, looking each other in the eyes for the first time.
"Sairaorg." Misla said happily as she stood up, approaching her son with a smile, before realizing they had a guest.
"Mother, this is…"
"Rob Lucci," the now named Lucci said as he extended his hand and took Misla's bandaged hand, lifting it up to his face and kissed the back of it. "It is a pleasure to meet you, Lady Bael. This is Hattori, my friend."
Rob Lucci was tall and lean. He wore a white two-piece suit with a pale baby blue under shirt with a white top hat. He wore a white coat over his shoulders, where a pigeon, Hattori, rested wearing a small hat, tie, and overcoat on itself too.
Lucci himself had wavy black hair and black eyes, with a small beard on his chin that had ball on the end.
The MOST striking thing about his appearance was the leopard ears that stuck out from his hat and the long leopard tail that was wrapped around his waist.
"Oh, you don't need to be so formal, just call me Misla." Misla said as she waved off Lucci's formalness with her bandaged hand, which was gently grabbed by Sairaorg who was shocked.
"Mother, what happened?" He asked in surprise.
"Oh, just a small accident." Misla said as she waved off Sairaorg's concern.
She turned to Naruto, who had been quiet and slightly shaken by Lucci's presence, staring at him with a few beads of sweat forming on his forehead.
Sairaorg glanced at Naruto.
"Did he…"
"Like I said, accident." Misla stated sternly, her eyes narrowing slightly into a glare.
Lucci, meanwhile, walked into Naruto's room, looking around the current baren room.
'Hm?' Lucci took notice of Naruto's desk, which had not only the bio sheet, but Jiraiya's belongings, including the Toad Sage's headband.
Walking up to the desk, Lucci reached out to grab it.
"DON'T TOUCH THAT!"
Misla and Sairaorg jumped from the sudden outburst from Naruto, who rushed forward and blocked Lucci from going further.
"THESE ARE PERVY SAGE'S THINGS, SO HANDS OFF!"
Lucci stared at Naruto.
'Shit…' he thought as Lucci's cold, murderous eyes pierced Naruto's soul.
Lucci chuckled, closing his eyes as he did.
"Sorry, I should have known better." He said as he grabbed Naruto's bio sheet. "It has been filled out, good, I can take my leave now."
As Lucci pocketed the paper, Hattori flew off of his master's shoulder and flew around the room twice before landing on Naruto's head.
*PECK*
"OW!"
Hattori pecked Naruto several times before he flew off and returned to Lucci's shoulder, several strands of Naruto's hair in his beak.
"Little bastard…" Naruto growled as he transformed, now towering over Lucci.
"Impressive, for a welp." Lucci stated with as smirk as Naruto lunged at him.
"NAR…" Sairaorg started to shout, before Hattori took flight as Lucci vanished, reappearing within Naruto's guard.
"Finger Pistol." Lucci muttered, thrusting his finger into Naruto's torso.
Naruto's eyes blurred as Lucci's finger penetrated his stomach, his limbs going forward as Lucci pushed back, making him look like a "C" before Naruto was thrown into the wall, transforming back into his normal form, the air knocked out of him and a hole in his stomach.
'That…' Naruto thought as he hunched over in pain. 'It is…'
"You are strong, I can tell from your body type." Lucci stated as Hattori returned to his shoulder. "But you lack control, and several other things…"
He turned to Misla and Sairaorg.
"I am sorry I resorted to violence, but I was attacked." He said, not really hiding his bloodlust from the devils.
"WAIT!"
Lucci ignored Naruto's cry, taking his leave.
Until Naruto grabbed his ankle.
"Please, teach me Rokushiki!" Naruto begged.
"Pardon?"
"I want to learn Rokushiki, you just used Shave and Finger Pistol. Can you teach me? PLEASE!" Naruto begged loudly, clinging to Lucci's leg much to his annoyance.
'Hm?'
Lucci took notice of the stomach wound, which was leaking blood onto his white suit pants.
Gaining a tic mark on his forehead, Lucci lifted his leg, carrying Naruto up before kicking him off.
"I don't have the time to teach a brat." Lucci said as he took his leave, Hattori cooing as he left.
Naruto winced in pain, his back aching, his stomach bleeding, stomach acid spilling from said stomach and into his blood stream.
"I WILL GET YOU TO TEACH ME!" Naruto declared, which Lucci heard outside the mansion.
Minutes Later…
"You're going to teach him."
"WHAT!"
Sirzechs smiled as he read Naruto's bio sheet while standing next to Ajuka as he analyzed the pieces of hair Lucci got from Naruto.
"Look," Sirzechs said as he held out the paper to Lucci. "He wants to learn Rokushiki, you KNOW Rokushiki, so think of this as an extended vacation."
"You can't be serious, Lucifer." Lucci spat as his teeth became fangs. "You want me, Leader of CP0, to waste time to teach an unknown brat Rokushiki?"
"That is what he is asking, Lucci." Ajuka replied as he stepped away from the table. "Besides, you can ask Kaku and Jabra for help if you are afraid of being near a child."
Lucci growled, his tail unfurling from his waist and dangerously swaying, as if he was stalking his prey.
"And what if this boy IS a D on top of being the Red Reaper's son, therefore the grandson of the Revolutionary?" Lucci asked hotly. "He might follow in his dear grandfather's steps and attempt to overthrow your kind?"
Sirzechs laughter heartily as he put his hand on the Leopard's shoulder.
"True, true, my friend." Sirzechs wheezed. "But this boy seems like he would be worth it. Though I feel like I should call Aunt Misla and have her talk to him about his name."
"True," Ajuka stated as he finished his small project as he turned to his comrade and subordinate. "Being an Uzumaki isn't a problem, as many yokai took the name if they were liberated by Kurama to live by his example. But being descendant of Kurama and Kushina is due to them having many enemies from all factions, on top of the older generations who are more warmongers. Then there is D."
Lucci scoffed.
"So, you still want me to train him?" Lucci asked with his arms crossed.
"Of course, he did beg you to train him, right?" Lucifer asked with a playful tone.
Lucci scowled.
"You are a fool, Lucifer." Lucci replied as he headed toward the door. "By the way, the Toad Sage died recently. I met your cousin's Pawn, and he had the Sage's belongings."
Sirzechs's eyes widened in disbelief as Lucci left.
Without hesitation, Sirzechs whipped out his phone to find Misla's number.
Bael Mansion…
"Everyone, this is Naruto, our newest member." Sairaorg stated as he stood behind Naruto, hand on the fox's shoulder as the peerage looked at him with analyzing eyes.
"H-Hello…" Naruto said nervously, looking at the floor to avoid their gazes, his left hand on his sword.
His stomach wound had been closed and thankfully he didn't get an infection.
He could feel them looking at him as Misla's phone rang.
"Sorry, I'll be right back." She said as she stepped out of the room and answered while Naruto stood nervously before the rest of the Peerage.
He was picked up and hugged by one of the female members of the peerage.
"He is so cute." Coriana Andrealphus said as she snuggled with Naruto, pressing their cheeks together.
Coriana had long blonde hair, red eyes and was currently wearing a business pink business suit pants and a light lavender dress shirt, the jacket next to her.
"You should let him go as he doesn't look happy." Misteeta Sabnock pointed out as he watched Coriana smother Naruto.
Misteeta wore a cloak that resembled the Bael uniform, but under it he wore deep blue magician like clothes. He had light green hair, violet eyes.
Coriana blew a raspberry at Misteeta, but was forced to let go by Gandoma Balam.
Gandoma was an enormous guy who is about three meters tall. He has a good build and his arms are thick till his fingers. His face resembles a monster of stone rather than a human with his skin being tan in color. His eyes are pale blue-gray.
"I do believe Misteeta is right, Coriana. Let him adjust to his new life before you do anything else." Gandoma said calmly with a smile as he put Naruto down while holding a thrashing Coriana.
"Put me down or else…" Coriana threatened.
"Or what?" Ladora Bune asked as he stepped forward, as if he was daring her to make her threat.
Physically looking the oldest, Ladora indeed was an adult male. His eyes were red and his hard was dark in color, though his overall appearance was more on the frail looking side due to his emaciated looking muscles.
Coriana huffed as Gandoma put her down, crossing her arms.
"Fine~" She whined.
Naruto, meanwhile, backed up several paces before bumping into Beluga Furcas.
Beluga was a handsome man, with dark brown hair and green eyes. He wore a copy of Sairaorg's uniform, though it had additions that gave it a more medieval theme.
"S-s-sorry…" Naruto panicked, bowing apologetically.
"It is nothing, young man." Beluga said softly as he smiled comfortingly.
Naruto felt some reassurance, but could not relax as he turned and saw Regulus staring right into his eyes far to closely for his liking.
Regulus wore an exact copy of Sairaorg's uniform, though he had a mask on his face, covering the tan skin he had, though his dark orange hair stood out.
"You're a fox." He said as he looked Naruto up and down with his calculating eyes.
"And you're a lion." Naruto pointed out from the scent Regulus gave off. "But… something is off…"
"Oh, you are very smart." Kuisha Abaddon said as she approached the two, kneeling down to Naruto's height.
Kuisha is a beautiful girl with blonde hair tied in a ponytail and blue eyes.
She was wearing a shirt that is open in the chest area revealing her large breasts and cleavage and part of her stomach, the costume has a section cut off in her arms revealing her shoulders as she wore trousers and a belt around her waist.
Naruto blushed at how beautiful Kuisha was, making her chuckle as he avoided her gaze to look at Regulus.
"How am I smart?" Naruto asked nervously, fumbling with his clothing. "Pervy Sage always called me stupid."
"Pervy Sage… you mean Jiraiya?" Sairaorg asked as he sat down on the couch.
"Yeah… it's what I call Pervy Sage." Naruto replied as he started to tear up a bit.
"Well, that is mean of him." Coriana chimed in. "You are adorable, so why would he call you stupid."
Naruto didn't answer as he felt anxious from the attention he was receiving.
"Let's give him some space." Liban Crocell said as he saw Naruto's discomfort.
Liban had blonde hair and silver eyes, wearing a tux version of Sairaorg's uniform.
As the peerage spread out and talked amongst themselves, Liban sat next to Naruto, who sat on the floor, feeling drained.
"So, you like swords?" Liban asked Naruto, drawing attention to Yubashiri.
"I do, but I have some training in kendo, so its not just liking them I guess." Naruto said as he looked at Yubashiri.
"May I see it?" Liban asked.
Naruto tensed.
Anxiously thinking of what to do or say, Naruto rubbed his hands together.
"If you don't want to, I understand." Liban said as he could see how troubled Naruto was.
"No, it's just… it is… was my mom's sword. It's the only thing I have of hers." Naruto said as he pulled Yubashiri from his side to hold in his arms. "It means so much to me."
Liban nodded in understanding.
"Okay, but if you ever want to train in swordsmanship, I am willing to give my help." Liban offered with a smile. "Beruka would also be happy to help."
Naruto smiled and nodded.
"Thank you, I ap… I appa…" Naruto tried to say, tripping over his tongue. "Apparate…"
"Appreciated?"
"Yes, that. I that." Naruto said as he pointed at Liban, who laughed at Naruto's antics, making Naruto go red in embarrassment.
Meanwhile…
"… Are you sure, Sirzechs?" Misla asked in concern.
"Yes, having him take the Bael name would not be seen as unusual." Sirzechs stated over the phone with his aunt (His mother's brother's EX wife, thus Aunt Misla).
Misla face palmed and pinched her nose.
"I have only known him for one day, but I can tell it will be an issue." She told him. "So, he is really the child of the Red Reaper?"
"Yes, the DNA test Ajuka did confirm he is Red Reaper's son." Sirzechs confirmed. "That is why we need him to take your name, to protect himself and you from further scrutiny."
"I know, Sirzechs, thank you for your care, but he will have lots of questions, so how can I answer them?" Misla asked her nephew.
"If it becomes difficult, I will come over and talk to the young boy."
"But aren't you busy? I know the Festival of the End has ended, but what about the Phenex engagement?"
"Don't worry to much, mom and dad are thinking about it, Rias, sadly, is being impatient and it is making it harder on them."
"Okay, I don't want to inconvenience you." Misla replied sadly.
"It is fine, but can you answer one question?"
"Of course."
"Is it true that Jiraiya the Toad Sage died?" Sirzechs asked Misla.
Misla did not respond.
"I see," Sirzechs mumbled as he realized that what Lucci had said was indeed true. "This… five years ago, Whirlpool's destruction… now this…"
"I know, our heroes were slain, or in hiding." Misla stated hopefully before she heard a crash sound with the sound of glass shattering. "Sorry, dear, I got to go."
"Okay, Aunt Misla, call me if anything happens." Sirzechs says.
"I promise." Misla said before they both hung up and Misla hurried to the small living room.
Once she arrived, she saw everyone laughing, except Naruto as his tail and Yubashiri were sticking out from under the couch, shivering and bristled.
"What happened?" Misla asked in concern as everyone started to calm down.
"Oh… Coriana spooked Naruto and he freaked out before turning into a fox before hiding under the couch." Misteeta told the Lady of the House.
"F-F-FUCK ALL OF YOU!" Naruto shouted weakly from under the couch.
"HEY, LANGUAGE YOUNG MAN!" Kuisha called out as she stepped over and heaved the couch off of Naruto, and stared at the clothed, shuddering fox.
Naruto scowled and blew a raspberry before he scampered off to his room.
"Seriously, you should know that Foxes are skittish creatures and it is not a good idea to push them into a corner." Misla scolded them, stomping over to Sairaorg, pulling on his ear. "Besides, he is nine years old, and just lost someone he cared about, just became a devil. With so many changes going on at once, no shit he isn't in the mood to be made fun of."
"OW, I UNDERSTAND, MOM!" Sairaorg cried in pain as Misla's grip was no joke.
Combatant she was not, but stern mother she was.
"You will go apologize to him, now." Misla said as she started walking, Sairaorg following so to not get his ear torn off.
"Shit… we went to far." Kuisha mumbled.
The peerage nodded their head in unison.
Naruto's Room…
Naruto sat in the fetal position on his bed, shuddering angrily as he scowled.
'Jerks. Assholes. Douchebags.' Naruto thought as he sniffled, rubbing his nose clean.
*KNOCK, KNOCK*
"GO AWAY!" Naruto shouted, turning as he didn't want to be around anyone.
The door opened anyway.
"Naruto…" Sairaorg called out, which Naruto ignored. "I'd like to apologize."
"Shove it, King." Naruto snipped.
"Okay, I deserve that." Sairaorg mumbled as he sat at Naruto's desk, looking at the belongings of the deceased Toad Sage.
"Don't…" Naruto stated menacingly as he watched Sairaorg in her peripheral vision. "Touch…"
"I won't, but I am sorry." Sairaorg apologized earnestly. "I should have stopped Coriana from scaring you, and instead of telling her off, I laughed at you."
Naruto stayed silent as he turned to face Sairaorg, dried tears on his cheeks.
Disbelief on his face, Naruto stayed quiet, showing he was willing to listen.
"I know you are going through many changes." Sairaorg continued. "Losing Jiraiya, being turned into a devil, now having to learn a new culture and many other things. What we did was not helping you, and I do apologize and promise to do better in the future."
Sairaorg bowed to Naruto, hands on his knees to help him keep balance.
Misla, who was outside the door, waited with baited breath.
It wasn't uncommon for Peerage members to hold malice toward their Kings, especially if it was a forced reincarnation.
"Okay…" Naruto mumbled after several minutes. "But I want something… well. A favor."
Sairaorg mentally gave a sigh of relief, but had a feeling it would be a while before Naruto was comfortable completely.
"Depends on what the favor is." Sairaorg answered as he relaxed.
"There is someone I have to talk to." Naruto stated. "But they are in the human world…"
Chapter 8, DONE!
This chapter is quite dull, but it is a necessary step.
Naruto is skittish around his new 'family' and doesn't immediately get along with them. But hopefully things go up.
Rob Lucci is now in the story, and it was fun to write him be serious and intimidating to Naruto, but then goofy/serious with Sirzechs being a total goof ball.
Now, I have an idea for the next chapter, which is pretty interesting and hopefully I can pull it off.
If you enjoyed this chapter, please leave a review. If you disliked it, please leave a review anyway as it all helps me become a better author.
