I am glad everyone is enjoying this story still, which I will point out a few things before leaving you all to read.
The voice is not Yami Naruto, but I will not tell you who it is.
This is Naruto/harem as for the girl, you just must read and find out. You may be right at times, or you may be wrong, more fun reading than being told right?
The next day Naruto was already in the middle of training, he was still trying to get used to the changes of his body. His eyesight was much stronger than ever before along with his new sense of hearing. It was like he could hear things that were hiding all around him, the animals watching, he could see them. These new senses were something he never thought anyone could have, yet he had all of them.
He looked behind him to see Yukikaze standing there, her eyes glued on him, which he figured was due to his new look. He waved her over, he watched her smile before starting to walk over to him, this time she was wearing a tight purple dress. It was so tight that her huge breasts were being shown off to the world.
"It seems you are on your first steps to becoming her replacement, I do have to say these ears and tail do look cute on you." She softly spoke before playing with his ears, she smirked when she could see the effect on him.
"Thanks, I guess?" Naruto rubbed the back of his head before he went back to training, even if she was watching him.
The only time he took a break was to see the last day of their singing event, his eyes glued on them and the way they moved and sang on stage. Something about them, he loved to watch them sing and dance, it did not help that Jiraiya's words were still in his head.
Once the event was over the four women were backstage sitting, changing into their normal outfits. "You know, four more years he will be sixteen and part of the shinobi life, I think I want to stay here." Ahri spoke up.
"You as well? I cannot believe I am even saying this, but I want to stay here in this village with him even if it just to look out for him." Kai'Sa was next to speak.
"If Kai'Sa wants to stay then I'll be staying as well." Evelynn had added.
"Don't go trying blame me for you staying, you know you want keep your Naruto-kun safe and sound." Kai'Sa countered back.
"That just leaves me, I mean I do want to stay with him. I should not be feeling this way, something about him makes me want to stay here with him." Akali spoke while looking at her friends, she did not understand herself at all anymore.
"I told you, just follow your heart, he may be young but that will not always be the case plus if he picks you as one of the nine then you will not age anymore. I do wonder who he would pick and if any of us will be one of these nine." Ahri pointed out with a smirk showing on her face.
"You make it sound easier than you know. I do know there something that bothers me, nine bodyguards and him taking the throne. Just what is the end game, what is this fox woman trying to get out of it?" Akali asked a big question.
"I mean, no one just gives over a throne nor their power easily like that. What is Naruto-kun role, what does he have to do with these bodyguards? Something is not adding up and now of all times the void showed up. Things are not what they seem, and I have a feeling this fox is not telling the whole truth." She finished before noticing Naruto looking over at them.
"She told me more of what I must do while I was training, she had told me that my job is to destroy the Watchers when they return. She also said these watchers are back, which I do not know what watchers are." Naruto spoke calmly even if he disliked the fact they were talking about his friend behind her back.
"Is she out of her damn mind!" Ahri screamed, "There is no way in hell you can beat them, does she truly think that someone young like you can match these bastards?" Ahri could not even believe what she was told.
"That is why the void attacked you, to kill you before you could kill their masters. The Watchers are the ones that created the void and void beings, they will hunt you down and they will never stop till you are killed." Kai'Sa stated.
"Even if she wants the Watchers died, why does she have such a hate for them in the first place? I never heard of her before, but you have Ahri?" Evelynn asked.
"I am shocked that you never heard of her because it was said she ruled all the demons of the world. She is as old if not older than even Fiddlesticks, she may even be the first true demon to ever walk these lands. So, I am not surprised if she has something against the Watchers, cannot enjoy her fun if void destroys all life." The fox pointed out.
"Even with all that aside, she cannot honestly think you can beat them alone, that something you need insane number of years of growing stronger. These monsters are the vilest in this whole world, if they are coming back then make this world have mercy on us." Ahri finished, still unsure how to feel about this bombshell of news.
"She said that I be at least adult before they break free, so I still got time to train. I will not lose, because I will not let everyone I care about die. I will find a way to get strong enough, I promise that, and I will never break my promises. I will win this because I will not lose no matter what I must do to keep everyone safe." He simply told them before leaving the room, with everyone staring at where he once was.
"He cares too much for others, it is like he lacks the sense of fear. The fear for his own life, for his own wellbeing, he cannot live his life for others like that. He needs to learn that his life is just as important as the ones he cares so deeply about." Evelynn almost angerly spoke, she was mad that he cared so less for his own life.
In the middle of Naruto's training, he could tell someone was watching him, soon a jester looking person walked out of the shadows. Naruto put himself on guard with his blade in his hands, ready to strike this new person.
"Why so hostile already? I just come to bring you somewhere more fun, do not try to stop me because you will not beat me." Jester smiled before adding," I mean you can't beat them." Naruto dodged an incoming attack from two demonic looking monsters that rushed him from behind.
Both looked like half bull half human, with the upper part being bull which caused him to dodge another powerful attack. The ground next to him was shattered on impact before he dodged again using Yamato teleporting.
He did know judging from their size, that any hit from them would cause a lot of pain and may just kill him. He slowly tries his best to produce some kind of plan to get away, even so he just could not seem to find way out of this three against one fight.
Before Naruto could dodge the next one, he was grabbed by the bull before being tossed into what looked to be a red portal. Naruto did not know what was going on only when he landed on his back, he could see everywhere around him was on fire.
He did know the portal closed leaving him all alone, in this new place which he slowly could hear screams of pain. He slowly got up, looking around to see just where he was yet the only word that would come to mind was hell.
"You are brighter than you think Naruto-kun, this is truly hell that you landed yourself in. Hell, that is ruled by devils, I do not know why that jester sent you here, just know you better do everything to survive here. I do mean it, but you better not die on me, and it is best to get somewhere more hidden from sight." These words were truer than he would ever understand.
Naruto did his best to find better place to lay low till he could come up with a plan, he was only twelve yet stuck in the very hell that damned souls live in. when he found a cave, he looked inside to see nothing in it, thankful he slowly did know he would have to try to find something to eat sooner or later.
Days passed, no one could find Naruto, which caused fear to hit the hearts of the women that cared for him. Ahri was out looking every hour of the day, along with Akali yet these two never took anytime to eat or sleep till Evelynn forced them to.
"Ladies, I have good news and bad news, which do you want first?" Dante walked inside the house, his eyes looking over at the women.
He could tell that these days been hard on them, he did know he could bring some good news to them even if it also bad news. Before he could talk, they all just glared over at him, he just shrugged his shoulders.
"Just out with it!" Akali was the one that yelled, "I'm sorry just I can't take this anymore, we need to find him." She quickly spoke.
"No need, I can understand why you are acting that way. I know where Naruto is, well not fully where he is. I know where he was taken, sadly that is the bad news because he was taken to hell, I do mean hell. I do know he is still alive, just that it will take me some time to get him back which I am already planned to go back there." Dante took a breath before continuing.
"I already have gathered a few people to help me with that, you just need sit here and sadly wait till we bring him back. Just know that, because people do not come back from hell the same as when they entered that damned place, he may not be fully his old self." Dante finished, his eyes watching them.
"Just bring him back, if he changed then we just help him heal anything that may have happened to him there. We may not be the best ones to take care of him, even so I refuse to give up on him because he would never give up on us." Akali told him.
"One more thing about hell, time does not move same way it does here. A week here could be months down here, a month could be years because even I do not know how fast time moves down there. I just know I been stuck down there before, and it felt like lifetime yet it only few years up here." Dante spoke before turning around and heading back outside, he had to save the brat.
A month had passed, the women were trying their best to do their singing in hopes that Naruto would come back alive. When Akali was not singing she was training, training to the point she would pass out. This caused much worry to her friends because they did not want their friend to push herself that hard to grow stronger, they could see she blamed herself for failing to keep Naruto safe.
"Hello, why are you all so down?" Yukikaze asked, not knowing the current situation.
"Naruto was taken to place we can't get only that we do have someone trying to find him that can go where we cannot." Evelynn pointed out.
"What do you mean you cannot go?" The fox asked, worried, yet she looked at the group that was walking towards them.
They looked to see a group of kitsune women, their eyes moved over to Yukikaze that just gave a small smile. She did know that this was not how she wanted this meeting to go down, she just hoped that everything would work out and Naruto could be saved.
"My name is Amagi and are you the one that has be keeping Naruto safe?" The first woman asked, her had long brown hair and light violet eyes.
She was wearing a long red dress with slits running downside of her legs, this dress hugged her huge chest which made Ahri twitch her eye at because it was bigger than her own. That was something she did not like to see nor have around her Naruto when he got back. The twitch got even worse when she noticed her long legs, which were left bare.
"These two are my sisters, this one is Akagi-chan and one beside her is Kaga-chan."
The first woman she pointed out Akagi was like herself in looks, her hair color was darker brown than her sister, her eyes were red with slits showing off her kitsune look. Her bust was shown in her miko upper outfit if you could call it that. She was also wearing a noticeably short red miko skirt. She had nine tails behind her just like Amagi, which caused Ahri to glare at them, putting her on guard.
The last one had short white hair, with blue eyes that looked like the sea. She was wearing a black top that hugged her large bust, also a blue miniskirt. She also had a slim frame of body just like Akagi, her outfit showed much of her legs off. She like the other two had nine tails which caused Ahri to wonder just who these women really were.
Having nine tails was not something common nor was it something that happened fast, it takes years and years for you to grow your tails. To grow nine tails means you were incredibly old, which Ahri would never admit to.
Unlike the month in the normal world, it was a year down in hell which Naruto was standing over what looked to be a dead monster. His blade was covered in blood, dripping on the ground. His eyes looked down at the monster he just slain, one of many that he had killed during his first year.
His blonde hair had white lines going in it, his eyes that were once blue full of joy and innocent had become darker. It was a kill or be killed world down in hell, he soon learned that he could trust nothing in this hellish place.
"You are strong, but are you strong enough to keep surviving here?" A voice behind him spoke, he turned to see nothing.
"What if I could give you something to help, yet you would say no because everything in hell is out for themselves? What if you keep surviving is benefit for me, so take this gift but that if you have guts to take it, from an unknown person." Voice was again behind him.
Naruto turned around to see a bag on the ground, still no one in his view even with his kitsune vision. He was unsure of even opening it yet, he felt pulled to it or the sword was pulled to the bag.
When Naruto opened it, there only things in it were a few papers and coat, he slowly put it on due to his jacket being ripped to pieces at this point. The coat's colors changed once it was put on, it was no longer the same looking coat as it was inside the bag. Now the colors had seemed to fit him better than the old version.
This new version of the coat was a long dark red mixed with orange buttoned coat with three separated coattails. A black, serpentine pattern had run around the collar that fit him perfectly, with what looked to be a snakehead over the coat's left shoulder. The tail of the snake was slinking down the right, all the way to the very bottom of the coat. There was a black lining that ran across the edges of the coat.
The inside was something he never felt before, it was silky, golden flower blossom pattern decorated the inner lining. The main thing that he noticed was that each cuff of his new coat had possessed five, gold buttoned straps with gold lining.
He looked at the papers, it talked of someone named Vergil and how he survived being in hell, only a few papers, still it was more insight in this place. He did not know who this Vergil was nor to whom this voice belonged. He did know he could see a few places talked about and in very superbly detail that would help him find them.
When he started to run towards the first place, he could feel his body feeling lighter, the hellish air was not bothering him as much. He did not know what kind of coat this was just that it was not a normal one, it was helping him in ways that outfit should not be able to. He would use it to survive, to see them again, to see his family once more.
He cut down any lesser demon that he crossed path with, more he killed the stronger he felt like he was growing. The more he felt like he was learning how to use Yamato better, from being able to strike faster even up to two or three times in a single movement.
"He is growing faster than we thought he would, will that be a problem for you?" Kurama asked his master.
"No, he is after all my replacement which means my goal may come even sooner than we had planned. That does mean, he may not need you." The woman smirked.
"The king will always need the horse, even if the horse may not need its rider. If he even slightly gives up, I will take the reins even if it means having to beat him down." The voice showed his anger at her words.
Naruto's coat is Vergil's coat with new colors.
