I hope everyone still enjoying the story and if you got any questions feel free to ask me.
On with the story!
Another year passed by which Naruto was watching the four women on stage singing and dancing, his eyes stayed mostly on Akali and Ahri. These two have slowly become more part of his life than he had ever thought they would, something just pulled him to them. Even if he did not know why or what these feelings were.
Many people from many villages around the shinobi lands would come to visit them, they had slowly become a famous group in this part of the world. Even so, no males were still allowed in their home, the rule that none of them have broken yet.
He did know there was something about them that kept his eyes on them, he did not even notice when Dante did his best to get him to look his way. Which was slowly annoying Dante which only meant one thing.
"Brat," Dante slapped him upside the head which caused Naruto to look over at him. "You do know there few things you need to learn if you are to take the insane woman's place, right? I do mean insane woman, which is because I swear, I will never understand her." he asked.
"Tamamo-chan did say there were few things I needed to learn right away but how do you know any of that?" He simply countered.
"I had little talk with her, due to the help of one of my friends. I had to make sure she was going try to turn you evil against everyone, which she does not have any plans to do that. One thing she said is you need to pick nine loyal bodyguards to follow you, these bodyguards need be ones that never betray you." He pointed out.
"Yea, I know that part and they need do something she said I would learn about when I get older which never got told yet." He added.
"One of these bodyguards or all of them need to bear your child, meaning one of them as be your lover or all nine can be. The very least is that one of them must give you a child in case you die, there always needs to be someone to become your replacement out there." He could see Moka glaring over at him.
"No need to glare at me, it's not like I made this stuff up or anything." Dante just shrugged at the younger woman.
When they took a break from singing, that was when Naruto went to train because he did know he had to grow stronger. Naruto could not keep living his life with everyone else keeping him safe, he had to become stronger to like his own life.
Naruto took Yamato into his hands before training, he wanted to unlock more of this sword's power, to control it better. Naruto made a small portal before stepping into it only to reappear ten feet away from where he was.
"I can only make small portals and move limited range still, yet at least it something no one else can do in this world." Naruto proudly said to himself.
"Aren't you little too young to be playing in the forest of death like this?" He could hear voice behind him.
He looked to see a very odd, dressed man with long silver hair along with few toads, he just stared bit before going back to training. He would not let this strange man get in his way of training, there was too much on the line for him.
"Anyone tell you it is rude to ignore someone let alone someone famous like me? Do you truly not understand who I am?" Man asked.
"No, I don't know who you are nor do I even care because I'm busy training so I can be super strong." Naruto waved him away.
"I can help you get strong, after all I am the legendry Sannin Jiraiya." Naruto looked back because he did not care for the weirdo.
"How can you help me, and I never heard of you." Naruto simply countered.
"How have you not heard of the Sannin? Have you been living under a rock? Come here, learn the greatness that is me."
For a few hours Naruto and Jiraiya would talk while he showed Naruto the orange book which caused Naruto to regret ever meeting him. Learning stuff in that book caused his mind to slowly think on the four women that took care of him, something that changed him forever which it was all the pervert's fault.
"Jiraiya, you didn't do anything stupid right?" Dante asked him while watching Naruto walk away from the training grounds.
"What would you call stupid, all I did was pass on some of my great knowledge to him." He spoke while holding the book up.
"You…really are an idiot!" Dante screamed at the man.
Later that night Naruto avoided everyone, yet Ahri had corned him before dragging him to her room to talk. She sat him down on the bed before glaring over at him, she wanted to know why he was avoiding them.
'Why have you been avoiding us all day, did we do something wrong?" She asked, which did not help with her choice of clothing.
Naruto had a hard time looking at her, she was wearing a noticeably short silk robe that showed much of her large chest, most of her legs were bare. He could see her pink panties and the top showed she did not even wear any bra underneath it. Her legs to him look great, and he could tell most women did not have legs that good.
"What is wrong, please tell me?" She moved her face right to his, her eyes showed she was sad due to the way he had been acting.
"It's not you, it just a jerk that make me think of you four in different way." She stared at him confused before he had filled her in on what happened.
"That is normal for someone to think that way when they grow older, yet this pervert just made it so you learned faster than you should have." Ahri nicely put it while planning Jiraiya's death.
"What should I do then?" Naruto asked her, yet his brain shut down when Ahri kissed him on the lips.
"Simply be you, stop worrying about stuff like that, ok?" She said before she just smirked, she looked him in the eyes. "You still got much to learn and years to grow before you can even start thinking about that stuff."
She pushed him on the bed before moving the two of them into a cuddling pose, she would not let her teddy bear go away anytime soon. "This will be your punishment for causing all of us to worry, tomorrow I'll talk with them, so you don't need to worry." Ahri said while she watched the boy blush badly due to her actions.
The next day Naruto was once again training, his mind moved to Ahri more than normal due to what happened last night. He just shook his head because he looked at the lake nearby before walking over, he looked at himself in the waters.
He started to wonder if he could truly get stronger at the rate he was going, the doubt was starting to eat away at his mind. Soon he found himself in an all too familiar place, he looked to see that he was staring at a large cage, this cage was in the middle of a large forest that he made for them.
"So, my jailer and my soon to be replacement is doubting himself so much?" He looked over to see a woman with long pink hair and two yellow slit eyes.
She was wearing what looked to be a priestess outfit or miko outfit if you would call it that, her outfit was slightly different. The first change to her outfit was the fact that the front of her miko outfit was open and showed a great deal of her large chevage. It was like she cut off the top half of the miko and added slits down the sides to give her long legs more room to move around.
Her brown fur fox ears and tails almost looked like they were wagging happily when she was staring at him, he did not understand this woman. This woman was the first person he ever really opened to, yet he never could figure her out.
"You had some fun cuddling time with Ahri last night, didn't you? I did not know you like foxes like that, I should have my own cuddling time with you." The divine fox teased him.
"You are acting strange again, because Ahri was just being Ahri." Naruto still semi clueless to women.
"When will you realize that you are going to need mates, my dear little Naruto? You have much work to do to replace me." She had smirked before moving to sit down on a throne that looked to be made of metal.
"All I want is to keep the ones I care about safe and be the next Hokage, so everyone will stop hating me for something I'm not." Naruto stated.
"I hate to do this, but you will become a kitsune, like what Ahri looks like. You are never destined to stay human, so you can keep everyone you care about safe but people not seeing you as kitsune will never happen. Ahri is not a kitsune, is something different and I do not know what her people are called, you should ask her. I can tell she was not born what she was, she born a fox or something." She added the last part.
"So, I will become a fox like you? Even so I will keep the ones I care about safe no matter what, I will never back down from doing that." He stared at her before noticing the ground was shaking around him.
When he snapped back to the real world, he could see dark purple all around him, like he was in a sea of purple. Naruto could start to hear random voices, unsure of what was going on till he could hear Tamamo call for him.
"Because Naruto-kun, this is the void, and I do not know how or why it is here but do not lose yourself to it! It will try to bend your mind and will to its, it will devour everything that is you before taking you over!" She warned, fear showing in her voice.
A little while before the girls were getting ready for their next singing, it was a three-day event, yet this was the second day but no Naruto in view. "Where do you think he is, if he is training then I am going give him a long talk about missing the singing. How about we simply find him." Ahri said before smirking.
"I mean we haven't even changed into our stage clothes so I guess we could look for him, I bet he at same place he always is." Akali pointed out.
"This better not be because of what happened yesterday, I mean I already talked to him all about it." Ahri added in which everyone gave her a look before she filled them in on what happened.
"Just where is this man that is trying to corrupt my little Naruto-kun? I need a long word with him, exceptionally long word." Evelynn deadly asked, planning to torture him till he died.
"Let's go find Naruto-kun first before we manage this man punishment." Kai'Sa said before they all agreed with her.
When the four girls went there, they could see Naruto in middle of the sea of purple which caused Kai'Sa to pale, fear showing in her eyes.
"No, the void is trying to devour him, we need to get him out of there." She said, her voice scared, scared of losing the boy that she was helping to take care of.
"How do we get to him, if we touch that don't, we end up in worse than ever?" Ahri nervously asked her.
"No, you cannot help him because he needs to get out of this himself. He is Naruto, and his willpower will not let him break now." A voice spoke behind them, they turned to see Dante.
"I will not let anyone devour me, because I will not let anyone take away what I am! You want me void, too damn about because you cannot have me! I have too much to do and people that I must keep safe no matter what!" Naruto yelled, while purple tried to cover his body.
"I will not let everyone down! Akali, Ahri, Evelynn, Kai'Sa, Dante and Moka!" The purple glow was being covered in what looked to be blue flames, flames that slowly started to cover his whole body keeping him safe.
"So, it finally has begun." Dante stated.
"Get away from me void!" Naruto screamed and flames blasted out all around him, pushing back the void like wind blowing away smoke. Kai'Sa could not believe her eyes, that he was pushing the void away like that, no one ever had been able to do that in this world.
"He isn't just surviving the void attack but defeating it, how in the world is he able to do that?" she simply asked.
Two small fox ears slowly appeared on Naruto's head along with one orange kitsune tail, his eyes turned blue with slits. The blue flames started to rage around him even faster, pushing away the void like it was destroying it. He refused to let anyone break his will, he would never allow the void to destroy who he was, he would overcome every challenge that he was forced onto him.
Soon the whole area that was once filled with void was now burned to ashes, the ground that was once green was covered in ash. Naruto still stood there, before letting the flames die down, he did not sense anymore of the void which caused him to look behind him.
He looked at the group of people he cared about, yet he looked over to where void was while trying figure it out. He did not know what it genuinely wanted, was it there to devour him or was it after something else?
He grabbed Yamato off the ground before cutting into air, creating a portal which took him over to the group. He could tell it had caught all of them off guard but Dante, yet he just gave a smirk because he did know what that sword was able to do.
"So, you learned how to do that already? I have to say did not think you would be learning the sword's powers this fast." He got slapped upside the head by Akali.
"You never were going to tell us that he would be able to teleport like that, what else are you holding back on us?" She asked the devil.
'Sometimes it's best to let him surprise you and it's time for me to go before I end up getting killed by angry women." Dante joked before leaving.
Ahri was staring at his new changes, although she did start to lick her lip which she got her a slap on the rear by Evelynn which made her jump up. She looked back at Evenly before she realized what she had done, she looked away to face Naruto again.
Before anyone else could talk to him Kai'Sa had pulled Naruto into a hug, he could feel her shaking which caused him to worry about her. He had no idea why, that was because he was never told her past with the void. The things that Kai'Sa had to survive and things that caused her fear at night, he just let her hold him.
"I'm ok Kai'Sa, you don't need to worry, ok?" He slowly spoke to her.
"The void is something that robs you of everything, even when you think you lost everything already it keeps taking away what you never thought you had." She said, holding on to him.
She would spend the whole day holding him, even at night he was beside her for the first time still helping her get over the shock. He had no idea what caused her to break down like that, just that he refused to let the void get hold of him.
Later that night he had woken her up before he got out of her bed, he looked over at her standing. He could tell something was bothering her, yet he did not know what nor how to help her because he still did not know much about her.
"I am going to show you the real me, not the woman that joined the KDA group but real me. The one that survived in that hell for years, the one that lost my home when the void had devoured the village, I lived in." She spoke yet her voice was scared.
Her long purple hair that she had while being part of the group had turned into brown in color but that was not biggest change. The biggest change was not her eyes due to them staying purple, it was her outfit. Well, to Naruto it looked like an outfit, but this outfit covered her body was a void symbiote with gray, dark gray and bronze palette of colors.
On her beautiful face had purple marks on it, that reminded him of the void, yet he did not care because she was still who she was. He just walked up to her, that made her take a step back only for him to keep walking up to her.
"No matter what you look like, you will always be Kai'Sa, and I won't let void take you or anyone away ever again." He stopped right in front of her.
"This suit is alive, it is a void symbiote that is forever bond to me even if I can take it off, it will always be with me." She slowly showed him, but the suit disappeared leaving her naked in front of his eyes.
She did not know why he had no fear of her new look, she was glad another person had accepted her for who she really was. There was only a handful of people that didn't think she was an monster, Naruto was one of these few which made her happy.
Naruto stared because he did not know what to do now due to her being naked, just that she moved her arms around him. She pulled him in embrace and due to his shorter size, his face was between her breasts.
"Stay with me today ok, just know that I will always be here to keep you safe Naruto-kun." She told him, before moving two to the bed where she cuddled with him. She did not even care that she was naked around him, even if she found it cute for him to be shy.
Evelynn closed the day with a smile, she was happy for her lover, yet she did want to spend time with her. She just figured that she would give her this one night with Naruto before she headed to Ahri's room.
"Your main goal is to stop the coming of the keepers Naruto-kun, I hope you become the true replacement for me." The fox's words echoed in the hallows area that she was in.
"You think he will be ready for that task, or will he be unable to do the things he has to do in the future? You know that there are things he would never allow happen yet can he really do these things himself? Beating the keepers will not be easy and there be unforgettable things he must do to get it done." Kurama finally spoke up.
"Then I'll just have to take the reins from him, beside unlike him I would have my way with these beautiful women." A new voice more twisted spoke.
What will happen once the women find Jiraiya?
Which side is Kurama on, who is this new voice?
Can Naruto stop the keepers when they come back?
