I DON'T OWN NARUTO, HIGHSCHOOL DXD, OR ANY OF THE WORKS THAT ARE MENTIONED/SEEN IN MY FANFICTION.
Hello everyone! I'm glad to see that my first chapter got such a positive reception! I appreciate all of the feedback and opinions you guys had and I'll do my best to address them. Let me get the elephant out of the room on the power levels in DxD.
The reason why I'm making the verse so strong is because it's important for various story reasons. I don't want Sasuke to come into the verse and just instantly wreck shit up because he's just the strongest in the world. I want him to be careful, and be aware that he can't dominate this world like he planned to do with the Shinobi World once he was done with fighting Naruto. If you want a gauge of power, I'll give you a quick run down on it.
Currently Sasuke is just as physically strong as he was before he left the village to train with Orochimaru for 3 years. He has all of the knowledge of his past life and is technically able to activate his EMS/Rinnegan abilities but you'll see when he does try to use it as a 12 year old. And now he has to train with Albion on how to use Divine Dividing which is something he's not familiar with at all, but if given the chance to master said power will give him a huge boost in strength. Right now, I'd say Sasuke would be able to beat someone like Riser albeit with a bit of difficulty given that he is still in a boy's body. He could give a low end Ultimate Class some trouble but would more than likely lose unless given enough prep time to use his tactics to take them out.
As for the ceiling of the Naruto verse vs the DxD verse. For the sake of the story and how I want the power progression to go, I'll be 'buffing' the DxD verse or more like trying to accurately scale it based on some of the statements I see. I'll put it as simply as this: Baryon Mode Naruto is around a True Form Sirzechs in my fanfiction in terms of strength. Meaning that it'll put him around the lower half of the top 10 strongest beings. Sasuke even in his post war state, is much weaker than his Boruto era counterpart who was outclassed by Isshiki who got defeated by BM Mode Naruto. Given this, I'll put a fully healthy Rinnegan Post-War Sasuke around the base Sirzechs/4 Satan tier, which I think is a fair amount. This leaves Sasuke plenty of room to grow, and after mastering both his Rinnegan and Sacred Gear he'll be a force to reckon with entire pantheons.
As for the Red Dragon Emperor, I'm currently leaning towards Vali based on the reviews and the story I wish to craft.
Now let's reply to some of the reviews you guys have left me!
Atikchafik2004- Thanks! I hope I'll get your support in the next chapters.
Vercingetorix Rex- Maybe, maybe not. But I will say this, Sasuke will stay a human throughout my fanfiction and if he's not a human, it'll be due to reasons not revolving around the Evil Peerage System. He might be an ally of Rias and company due to the ties he has with Akeno in this upcoming chapter, but that's about it. As for why a Rinnegan Sasuke needs a sacred gear, I explained a bit of the power scaling at the start already.
Danish78- Thank you so much for not only the advice but also the opinion on who our Red Dragon Emperor should be! And you're correct in me taking inspiration on how Sasuke ended up in the DxD world from other fanfics. It's usually him ending up after the Kaguya fight, or being reincarnated, etc etc so I decided to do it after his character resolution at the end of his final fight with battle. It was that or Sasuke Shiden and I decided to go with this since I wanted Sasuke to have Albion and him dying somehow as Shinden didn't make much sense.
Phantom Thief of Hearts- I may have misworded the nerf, but the main nerf is his chakra pools + his body like you said in your review which thank you for making it. As for exaggerating the levels of DxD, I may or may not be but I wanted Sasuke to grow not only as a person but also strength, and if I didn't make the DxD verse stronger than the Naruto verse then there would be no reason for Sasuke to have Albion cause he'd just stomp the verse. This way, with his ninja powers + albion, he'll be able to reach the highest of tiers in the verse. As for the DxD canon, certain canon events will be relatively similar. Shuri's death, you'll just have to see what I do with it but I do plan on expanding upon the DxD lore involving other pantheons pairing options aren't set in stone and I'd love to discuss it more with you and all of my readers. And regarding Slash/Dog I know of it, but not really what happens in it. If you want to shoot me a DM or I might do it myself so that you can walk me through the events of Slash/Dog. I can involve Sasuke in the events for sure and if I do make Vali the Red Dragon Emperor, he'll be the exact same just with Boosted Gear rather than Divine Dividing.
Iskandar Hero- Haha heard. Thanks for the review, and as a huge Sasuke fan who's been looking for more Sasuke Crossover fics I'll definitely take this into account. It's very likely that Vali will be the Red Dragon Emperor so no worries!
KHARAKI TAKAN- Thank you for the review, and I've already addressed this but I'm planning on making Vali the Red Dragon Emperor. I see no fit for Issei in here like you said, and I don't know what I'd do with Naruto. He might make a cameo later on in the series but for now he'll be content in Konoha.
Kcirtap1- Agreed!
Average Fic Enjoyer - Agreed! Sasuke may be a bit ooc in this fic depending on how much he's talking but I think you're referring to him giving his last words to Naruto? If so, I just wanted Sasuke to drive home the point that he entrusts Naruto with everything, including his will. If it were the conversation with Hagoromo, it was just a lot of exposition so I'm sorry if I made Sasuke talk too much in last chapter or this chapter! And I'll be making Vali the host of Ddraig.
Now that I went over the reviews, I'll get this chapter started!
A loud roar would startle Sasuke as he appeared within his own mindscape. Looking around the dark purple and blue space with a sigh as his eyes landed on the source of the roar that woke him up from his slumber. "So you're Albion huh?" The last and technically only Uchiha in this new world craned his neck up as he stared at the Giant Western Dragon that rivaled the tailed beast in power but also rivaled them in sheer size. His senses telling him that this was an extremely strong being, and should he fight it that he would be in a world of pain. At least Hagoromo wasn't lying about the strength of this dragon he mused to himself as he subconsciously compared it to Naruto's 9 Tails and the Ten Tails, being surprised at how strong Albion was. Just based on initial feeling, he could tell that Albion at bare minimum would give the 9 tails an immense challenge.
"Indeed. Hello Sasuke, or shall I call you partner?" Albion's voice boomed out as the White Heavenly Dragon was also studying Sasuke, just like how Sasuke was studying it. The two of them staring down at each other as Sasuke's dojutsu were currently taking in the sight of a majestic creature like Albion.
"Hn." He would grunt as he was done analyzing the White Western Dragon. "Sasuke is fine for now. We'll have to do battle together if you actually want to call me partner." The last Uchiha replied calmly as he gazed at himself at the reflection that the water on the floor seemed to provide. Like what Hagoromo said, his physical form was that of when he left the village. His 12 year old body being so fragile, so weak to the body that he had grown accustomed to when he took on Demi- Gods, an actual God, and his best friend who was the reincarnation of a son of a God. Huh, when you put it like that it was quite odd that he fought so many self-proclaimed Gods in such a short period of time.
"Well I do know your entire life story Sasuke, from your brother massacring your clan to your battle with Naruto Uzumaki." Albion couldn't help but chuckle at his new very interesting partner. He had been sealed within countless different hosts but not a Demi-God from a different dimension that had powers that rivaled some of the strongest beings alive without the usage of any sacred gear. He couldn't wait to see the look on Ddraigs stupid red face after he and his new partner showed him what they could do.
"You know my life story? Who gave you the right to just look through my past?!" He snarled out, his dojutsu blazing to life as he glared at his so-called partner. His purple chakra fueled by his hatred lighting up the previously dark room. While Sasuke was turning a new leaf, his past was still quite the sore topic, especially revolving around Itachi as he glared at Albion before sighing. "Of course you know my past. Our souls are connected." He grunted as he couldn't help but curse Hagoromo a bit in his head. He wasn't used to having someone else in his head space and it was something he had to get used to. "I...apologize for exploding like that." He spoke softly to his future partner, trying to get a rein on his emotions, especially the negative ones like his hatred that he was consumed by not too long ago as he shook his head. He needed to stop reminiscing about the past as he looked at Albion once more. "I'll.. be needing your strength later. So we'll have to be on the same page." He talked a bit awkwardly, the emotionally stunted Uchiha not really knowing how to have a sincere conversation as he heard a deep chuckle from Albion.
"It's alright Sasuke. I've been with countless people throughout the centuries but never have I seen a person that's more interesting than you. Your journey in life and indomitable will are something that I must commend. While I must admit that the path you went down.." The Dragon seemed to pause in thought as if to choose its words carefully next. "Wasn't the most wise, it's something that you've seem to be able to move on from and as your future partner, I'll be here to not only give you strength but also wisdom on how to adapt to this new world you find yourself in. With a man of your caliber of skill, I have no doubt in your ability in a battle and will be more than happy to lend you aid." Albion stated honestly, showing respect to Sasuke as two warriors that similarly have a rival of equal strength. Dragons respected one thing above all else and that was strength, something that Sasuke in his 'prime' wasn't lacking at all. And the Dragon was quite excited to see the ceiling of his partner's strength once he mastered Divine Dividing. Perhaps he'd be able to unlock the sealed off portion of his own strength as well..
Sasuke stayed quiet during the mini-speech that Albion gave him. The ravenette stayed silent to let the Dragon speak as the gears within his own brain began to think about Albion as he blinked before realizing something. "...Thanks." He said a bit awkwardly, after all the last Uchiha rarely ever said thank you to someone but he felt like he had to acknowledge his so-called partner in some way. "Wait Albion.." Sasuke paused as he couldn't even believe how he didn't ask this question yet. "What do your powers even do?" He asked the White Dragon with a blank stare as Albion stared right back at Sasuke.
"That's.. Huh. That's a good question, how haven't you asked that yet?" Albion asked while chuckling a bit as the Feathered Dragon looked down amusingly at its new partner.
"Hn. Just spit it out Albion." The Uchiha spat out with a grumpy look on his face, likely being upset that he of all people didn't ask what were the abilities that he'd be inheriting from his Dragon partner, and that he wasted some time not trying to train up his Sacred Gear.
"Of course. The Sacred Gear you'll be able to wield because of me is called Divine Dividing. They appear as a pair of white wings with blue feathers and its main ability is being able to divide the strength of your opponent in half every 10 seconds." Albion's voice boomed out as he couldn't help but be proud of his own strength. "And you'll be able to add the strength of your divided opponents strength and add it with your own."
'Divide your opponent's strength in half every 10 seconds and add it to your own?' The inner gears began to immediately turn inside of Sasuke's head, dozens of potential battle strategies forming as he tried to imagine taking down his opponent using Albion's powers. "That's quite strong." The Uchiha admitted with a smirk beginning to gather on his face. "Is there anything else this sacred gear can provide me?" He asked curiously, if Hagoromo Otsutsuki himself found it important to give him this kind of power, surely there would be more than just dividing the opponent's strength in half after a set amount of time. It was quite a useful ability, but with the way that Hagoromo talked about the strength of the world, he needed more power. Something that unfortunately was the story of his entire life at this point but at least it was for a different cause.
"Of course, I just told you what you'll have access to for the moment. The next stage in evolving Divine Dividing is something called a Balance Breaker. I'll advise you to train up your body to be able to handle power. Going by your memories, it'll put strain on your body similar to the strain that you experience using your Mangekyo Sharingan abilities but with time it'll get far easier to use and eventually it'll become second hand nature to you Sasuke. The balance breaker is a form of armor that my past users have dubbed scale mail and serves as an extra layer of protection similar to the earlier stages of your Susanoo. It also bypasses the 10 second time-limit on the ability to divide your opponents strength and add it upon your own, allowing you to do it much more frequently." Albion stopped his long winded explanation of the balance breaker, waiting to judge the Uchiha's reaction.
Sasuke nodded as he took a mental note to try and achieve this balance breaker at a later time. "Sounds quite powerful. If what you're telling me is true then it seems like that old man was right." He stated as he looked up at the Dragon. "I'm glad to have you by my side as an ally." He stated at the end, finding the word quite weird to come out of his mouth. Ever since Itachi was forced to kill the Uchiha clan, Sasuke had felt alone in his sick twisted world. That was until he met team 7 and formed actual bonds, bonds that he forcefully cut off when he left the leaf village. All besides one, the one person that could call himself a friend of Sasuke Uchiha and his rival Naruto. To think that he already had the same amount of true allies in this world then his original was amusing to say the least.
"Ally eh?" Albion couldn't help but laugh a bit. A loud chuckle coming from the legendary Dragon as he couldn't help but be amused by this human. The room vibrated a bit due to the sheer volume of his voice. "I suppose that's the best I'll get out of you for now Sasuke. I must make you aware of another power, one locked away similar to how your clan treated the Mangekyo Sharingan. It's called the Juggernaut- '' Albion was suddenly made aware of something and so was Sasuke as they spoke in unison.
"Someone is waking me up"
"Someone is waking you up."
The two looked at each other before Sasuke scoffed a bit. "We'll talk later about this secret power you have locked away. For the time being the information you provided is more than enough for the time being… Thank you." He thanked the Dragon, something he didn't do often at all but considering their souls were tied together he minus well showed the Dragon some form of respect. He could see Albion curtly nodded as he was being pulled from his own subconscious to the real world.
Akeno was currently standing over the bed of this strange boy that her Mother and Father randomly brought home last night. Her violet orbs shone a bit curiously as she inspected the sleeping pre-teen. He seemed about her age, she thought to herself as she looked at his chest rising slowly and falling back down indicating that he was breathing. 'He looks so peaceful..' She thought to herself as she couldn't help but let human nature get the best of her as she would put down the tray of food that her Mother had made for him. "Poke.." She whispered quietly to herself as she poked his cheek. The boy sleeping in her family's guest room didn't seem to register it at first as she frowned. "Poke.." She did the same action, poking at his cheek as she wanted to elicit a reaction which was what she got. She saw both of his eyes shoot open, feeling a bit of fear at seeing the boy's eyes. Gulping as she saw the boy stare at her, his onyx colored right eye and his purple colored left eye which was the source of her fear. "H-hello" She meekly spoke up, already regretting her actions at poking the boy. "M-my name is Akeno Himejima a-and I brought you some food my Mom cooked up.." She would quickly bend down, grabbing the plate and putting it on the edge of the bed as she awaited for him to say something.
Sasuke's inner conversation was interrupted as he kept his eyes closed for the moment, content on wanting to hear and see what the person in his room was doing. Just basing it off of their chakra signature- Well they had none. Sasuke couldn't sense an ounce of chakra coming off this person as his brows furrowed a bit. So what Hagoromo said was true, this was a world that wasn't based on chakra. He could sense some sort of energy signature, but it was different from the usual chakra he was used to. He'd have to do some inquiring later, perhaps he could interrogate- Was he being poked? Sasuke's inner thoughts were cut off as he felt this girl poke him. Why would she- Did she do it again? Sasuke decided now it was time to open his eyes as his eyes snapped open once again. Immediately he could feel the all too familiar chakra drain that his left eye provided him. He was unable to turn it off and in this 12 year old body, it was actually an annoyingly noticeable drain as he sighed deciding to find a way to deal with that later. For the time being he stared at the stuttering violet eyed girl. She seemed about his age, perhaps a year or two younger than him at most and now that he was awake, he could examine her energy. His left eye analyzed and studied her as he stayed silent for the time being to try and process this information. The energy she gave off was mostly untapped but it was an aura of light around her, tainted light but still light nonetheless. He could also see what reminded him most of lightning chakra within her untapped potential. It seemed like she was able, or rather would be able to use some form of lightning based ability.
However, his train of thought was cut off as his nose picked up on all too familiar smell. "Food.." He mumbled, the thought of it causing his stomach to rumble. When was the last time he even ate? He hadn't gotten a moment of rest ever since he joined the war and fought 3 or so Gods in one way or another. His new body was exhausted, and was about to undergo puberty meaning he needed to eat. It was something that Orochimaru made sure to do, crafting the perfect vessel also meant having a perfect nutrition plan. "Food." He stared with a hungry look in his eyes as the only Uchiha glanced down at the plate. There was a nice bowl of white rice with a serving of barbecued pork on the side and a nice serving of steamed vegetables. It was a relatively basic meal but anything for his current body would do its job as he reached forward for the plate.
"Nuh uh!" The little girl who introduced herself as Akeno seemingly snapped out of the fear that she initially felt by staring into the boy's left eye. "You can't have any food just yet, not until you tell me your name mister." She would smile a bit triumphantly as Sasuke couldn't help but sigh.
"My name is Sasuke Uchiha, are you happy?" He stared with a frown on his face. He didn't want to take his anger out on this girl but being reverted back into his 12 year old body meant that he had to deal with the heightened emotions he felt back then too. Even with all of the memories of his 16 year old self, he was still in the body of a child and felt like one too.
"Mmmm Sasuke… Sasuke.." Akeno tapped her chin as if contemplating how the name rolled off her tongue, the girl then smiling at him. "I like it. But you're missing something. If you're giving something then what do you say?"
Sasuke rolled his eyes. The internal struggle between acting like an asshole or getting some food in his stomach battled within him. A storm brewing in his eyes as he grit his teeth and muttered something. "thankyou.." The act of thanking someone feeling very bizarre, and rather unpleasant.
"What was that?" The little girl would tease him by moving the food back and forth as Sasuke glared at her a bit.
"I said thank you! Now let me eat." He glared at the little girl, well could he think of her as a little girl? He looked like he was barely older than her as he looked down at his small hands. He could see calluses forming on them but they were nothing like the hands he had after countless hours of brutal fights and training in the war. Great, that meant he had to put in that work once again but at least it'll be easier this time around. It's all about training the body and not the mind as he grabbed the tray from Akeno and snapped his chopsticks. "Finally." He muttered before digging into the food in front of him.
It was a truly gruesome sight, Akeno couldn't help but be a little horrified at the sight of Sasuke hounding into the bowl of rice as if the poor kid didn't eat anything in days. The way he vacuumed up the rice, the way the pork disappeared into his gullet was something out of a movie. She went slack jawed at the sight as she watched the boy tear through the meal.
Sasuke ate faster than he thought possible. The rice disappeared as he quickly shoveled everything into his gullet. Now that his body was finally out of the fight or flight mode, he needed sustenance. He grabbed the glass of water, raising it to his lips as he greedily drank it and it went like this for another 10 minutes before Sasuke finally put down his chopsticks. "Hn." He grunted as he had eaten up enough food to feed about 2-3 grown adults, it seemed like Shuri knew the boy was starving and prepared a large meal for him. "Thank you." This time instead of being forced to say the words, they came out much more naturally. His mood took a 180 degree turn as he finished gouging on the food. "Can you point me to the bathroom?"
Akeno slowly nodded, unable to speak or do anything as she was too horrified at the sight before slowly pointing towards a door on the other side of the room.
"Hn. Thanks." He nodded at the girl before climbing out of bed. Immediately noticing how much shorter he was then in his adult body as he couldn't help but grumble a bit as he brooded over towards the rest room. He looked himself in the mirror, staring back at his 12 year old face as he tilted his head towards the side. 'I already miss my old body.' He grumbled a bit before he heard a voice pop in his head.
"But you wouldn't have me around, I think I'm worth the sacrifice."
"Shut it Albion." The last Uchiha rolled his eyes as he stared into the mirror, his normal Rinnegan staring back at him. The tomoe would eat up too much chakra and its abilities weren't something that he could even use right now given the state of his body but.. His right eye flashed into its normal sharingan. The 3 tomoe swirling lazily as Sasuke then decided to risk something. He pumped chakra to his eye, gritting his teeth a bit as his right eye flashed from the 3 tomoe and into his Eternal Mangekyo Pattern. He looked around, feeling the drain on his chakra but he was glad that he could access his Mangekyo powers anytime he wanted, with the strain of hurting his body. "It's time to get training.." He mumbled before leaving the bathroom and walking over towards Akeno who was still in the room, putting all of the dishes back on the tray.
"Girl-Sorry.." He shook his head as he tried to fight down some of his old bad habits. "Akeno, I'm leaving now. As thankful I am to you and your family for bringing me in, I must leave as soon as possible-"
Suddenly Sasuke could feel a menacing presence near the entrance to the door as he quickly turned towards the source of said presence. The source of it was coming for an admittedly gorgeous woman, she had long flowing black hair and kind brown eyes. In some ways it reminded Sasuke of his own Mother as he gulped.
"And where do you think you're going Mister?" The woman who was assuredly Akeno's mom had an incredibly kind and patient smile on her face reminiscing of an angel but Sasuke couldn't be fooled with just looks. No this was a demon, someone that made sweat drip down his face. It was like facing Kaguya again, but what was the saying Kakashi told him? Oh yeah. 'Hell Hath No Fury Like a Woman Scorned' And here he was experiencing that. "I'm about to leave-" Ouch. That was a powerful glare, and she was humming a 'peaceful' tune to the naked eye but Sasuke could detect the anger hiding underneath that peaceful exterior. "I'm planning on leaving your house." He decided to not lie completely to the people who decided to nurse him back to health. "I need to go find my place in the world." It wasn't the full truth, but it wasn't a lie. He needed to find out more information about the world he was in and train his body up how it was before he was transported to this dimension.
"Oh really? And with what money Dear Sasuke was it? What roof over your head?" Akeno's Mom, who he believed was named Shuri from the sound of the man accompanying her right before he passed out, would begin questioning him. "Normal boys don't just come flying from the sky and crashing into a forest. And ones that can survive a fall from that kind of height are even more special."
Shuri was digging into the poor boy and she knew it but she couldn't help but feel protective over him. Maybe it was the sight of a child the same age as her daughter activating her maternal instincts to provide care for the boy, or maybe the fact that her husband could sense a foreign energy signature most likely being chakra coming from him. All that mattered is that he seemed to be alone, and that he was of the super-natural. "I know you aren't just some regular child Sasuke. Your left eye is more than enough to be proof of that. And while I'm not asking you to open up to me or anything of the sort.. Could you stick around just for a little while? Akeno could use the company, and I can try to help you to the best of my ability, or ask my husband."
Sasuke frowned as he looked at the woman and her daughter, both of them giving him a puppy dog look as his tough exterior was trying its best not to crack. She did raise some good points, he was just a 12 year old boy in a world that he didn't know much of anything about, and he had no plan on what to do besides train. His tools weren't in this world either, it was quite literally just the clothes on his back. He stayed silent, weighing the options out in his head as the two spectators tried to decipher his facial expression. Having a relatively hard time trying to do so with the blank look on his face. Time seemed to slow down in the room as they waited with a baited breath as he finally spoke out "Hn. Fine. I'll stay a bit longer." He grunted looking at Shuri, hoping that this would please the scary woman. How did her husband deal with her in any sort of capacity? He mused to himself before mentally shrugging.
"Yay!" "Yay!" Akeno and Shuri both shouted out in unison as Akeno looked up at her mother, her mother looking down at her as they would embrace each other, seemingly quite happy as Akeno would let go first. "Let me show you the garden! I love playing in it and I think you'll like it too!" She shouted as she ran up to Sasuke, her childlike curiosity shining in her eyes and contrasting from Sasuke's more stoic like approach. She grabbed his hand, smiling as she would drag him outside while the Last Uchiha could only just stare helplessly at the purple eyed girl.
How did he end up in a situation like this? Sasuke was currently being dragged around the Himejima shrine by Akeno who was explaining the history behind her family and how they worshiped the Shinto Gods. The only replies she would get out of a Sasuke was a "Hn" here and there but it was mostly just an excited girl dragging her new 'friend' around. Sasuke was currently trying to ignore Albion's laughter in the back of his head, frowning a bit as he tried to understand this new world. Apparently these Gods that the Himejima clan worshiped were actually real according to Albion, and shared the names of some of his Mangekyo abilities? He'd have to do further looking into this-
"Hey Sasuke! Let's play hide and go seek! I'm the best at it, not even Mother can find me and I bet you can't either!"
"Hn. I don't have the desire to-"
"Pleaseeeeeee!"
"...Fine." Those damn puppy eyes just ate at his soul and he didn't have the will to deny her. He was too busy being obsessed with hunting Itachi down to enjoy any trivial games like Hide and Go Seek. But, in a new world where he didn't have to kill Itachi, where he didn't have to worry about any shinobi war, maybe just this once the universe could let him be a kid. With that in mind, Sasuke counted down for a minute and immediately found Akeno.
"Cheater!"
"Hn."
"So you are a cheater!"
"No."
"Are too!"
"No."
1 Week Later
A week flew by and Sasuke was finally able to let go and just enjoy life as a kid. Something he hadn't been able to do since Itachi massacred the Uchiha clan all those years ago. He played hide and seek to appease Akeno, running into the forest and letting his Rinnegan track her down. It was quite humorous to say the least at her reaction of being found. And when Akeno had to go to school or pray with her mother, Sasuke would find the time to get some training in.
While a good portion of his strength was locked behind the need to grow into a more adult-like body, he could still polish his skill and train his chakra reserves up. With the use of shadow clones he was able to help speed this process up, something that he learned from Orochimaru and Naruto. While he couldn't create nearly as much as his blonde rival, he didn't need to. He created 3 other Sasukes and they immediately began to go to work. One of the Sasuke's went out into the town and into a library to begin learning all about technology, history, and any sort of relevant Sasuke may have found interesting. Humanity's development was astounding to Sasuke:Vehicles, weapons, computers, and the like were things that his world wasn't nearly advanced in. It seemed like they compensated for the lack of chakra and instead developed technology much further then his world had. However, war was still extremely prevalent. Blood The other Sasuke would be focusing on pure ninjutsu, trying to practice Chidori and its variants like senbon or nagashi.
The real Sasuke and one of his other clone would practice taijutsu with each other, slowly but surely regaining the skill he had as a 16 year old. He mused that by the time he actually turned 16 in this world, he'd be just if not even stronger then he was when he fought Naruto. Lastly, but perhaps most importantly. When Sasuke dismissed his clones, he would spend the rest of his time training with Divine Dividing. He was appreciative of not only the immense speed boost provided by it, but the mobility in the air was something that he previously didn't have in his own arsenal.
"Launch a fireball at me." Sasuke commanded as he stared down at one of his clones he just made, the wings of divine dividing coming out from his back as he awaited the fire ball jutsu. 'Fire Style: Great Fireball Jutsu' A fireball was launched from his clone, the red and orange flames illuminating the night sky. The fireball being comparable in size to a car as Sasuke held out his hand. "Divide" Albion's voice boomed out from his wings as the fireball was immediately halved in size, absorbing the chakra as Sasuke smirked. "Wonderful." He held out his hand as the fireball got closer. 'Chidori' the thousand birds chirped into life as his right hand was covered in electricity and he dashed through the fireball, the weakened fireball proving to not be an issue with the provided defense from his wings as he landed on the ground after destroying his clone with the chidori that was powered up by the energy gained from Divine Dividing.
"Hn." He grunted as he was left alone deep into the forest. He didn't want anyone looking for him as he looked up in the sky. The sun having already set, Shuri or Akeno were likely starting to get worried about was time to head back, Shuri was likely cooking dinner and Akeno would want to bug him about something. He could clearly see the way Akeno looked up to him, and it almost reminded him of himself and Itachi back in the good days. Her father was barely around, in fact Sasuke only saw the man once and Sasuke would immediately ask him on what he was, which the man replied saying he was a 'fallen angel' something that Sasuke knew of thanks to Hagoromo infusing him with some memories, but it was something he had to learn more of from Albion. The man seemed to be quite strong, and based on an estimate Sasuke would put him around a Kage-Level Shinobi but he'd have to actually see the man fight to prove said estimations. He was also fiercely protective over his daughter, threatening Sasuke on multiple occasions only for Shuri to step in and saying something about teaching him some 'lessons'. Whatever that meant.
Speaking of Shuri, the woman reminded him of his Mother quite a lot. The way she would be watching inside the house as Akeno and Sasuke ran around the yard, or the way she would always be there to patch some of his wounds from his training. She wasn't a fan of his wounds, and likely knew that they were self inflicted but she never asked. He liked that about her, the fact she was able to respect his privacy. And the food she made was quite delicious, something he enjoyed after a long day of training. He was a growing boy after all, however Sasuke's inner musings were cut short by a loud scream that came from the Himejima Shrine.
That scream sounded like Akeno's, Sasuke's eyebrows shooting up as he instantly activated his Sharingan. The 3 tomoe crimson eyes instantly bursted to life as he peered into the shrine to see where Shuri and Akeno were. He could see them, the two of them in the corner of the kitchen and a group of around 15 or so strangers around the pair of them as he let his chakra flow into the soles of his feet as he blurred towards the compound. 'I can save them, I MUST save them.'
Akeno was currently sobbing as she hugged the leg of her Mother, looking up at her as her mother stared down the assassins. Her mother was crying as well, begging them to spare her daughter as Akeno couldn't watch this any longer. Her eyes welding shut as she couldn't bare to watch her Mother die. Just 30 minutes ago Akeno was planning on eating dinner with Sasuke and showing him her prayer kimoto that she had recently gotten as a gift and yet here she was, about to watch her Mother die. 'Please someone.. help us.. Father.. Sasuke..' She whimpered as she sent a silent prayer.
Shuri looked down sadly at Akeno, praying that her husband would show up to save at least their daughter as she stared down at the assassins that were sent to take care of Baraqiel and his family. "Please.. You may kill me, but please spare my Daughter. I beg of you, she's but an innocent girl. The sins that her Father may have done shouldn't apply to her." She pleaded with them, knowing that no matter what she was about to die.
The assassin of course didn't say anything as within an instant, his blade was swung towards Shuri's neck, intent of killing the woman right there and then.
However, all of the individuals in the kitchen heard the sound of what sounded like birds chirping. A bright light flashing in the room as the sound got even louder, instead of a few birds it sounded more like a thousand..
And suddenly, everyone's eyes gravitated to the center of the room as the main assassin who was about to swing his blade and kill Shuri had a hand right through his chest. A 12 year old boy standing right in front of Shuri, serving as a body guard with a glowing hand piercing the assassin's heart. The red and violet heterochromatic eyes glowing in the dark as the sounds of the birds chirping died down. Then came the calm but ferocious tone of Sasuke's voice that seemed to snap everyone out of their stupor.
Sasuke drew his hand out, ignoring the warm crimson liquid around his arm that pooled onto the floor boards or the thud that was created as the dead body crumbled down into the floor as he glared down at the 14 assassin's in the room. Intent of killing them all or die trying.
"Next." And all hell broke loose.
Wew! That was wayyy longer then I anticipated but I wanted to get this out as fast as I possibly could for you guys since I got so much feed back and wanted to respond to it all! I also need to ask you guys some questions to help guide the story. I hope you guys enjoyed it, I'm a first time author but I'm trying my best to write a coherent story and keep Sasuke in character for the time being.
1. I'm planning on Sasuke's harem consisting of Rias, Akeno, Kuroka?, Yasaka, Aphrodite, Artemis? and I'm open to any suggestions you guys may have on who else should Sasuke be with.
2. I've decided on Vali to be the Boosted Gear weilder, his foil with Sasuke and how he'll remind Sasuke of his past self will be wonderful to write with in my opinion. Though I will ask, would any of you be interested in a Female Vali to be added into the harem? It'll serve as a potential option but I'll wait for the results of this chapter's reviews to help make the decision.
3. I'm planning on incorporating some of the Percy Jackson universe into this world, and plan on both the Greek and Shinto pantheons to play a role in Sasuke's journey throughout the world. It'll help with further building up the world, and adding in a cast of characters that'll hopefully work well with Sasuke. Let me know if thats something you'd be interested in reading in
4. Do you guys like my interpretation of Sasuke? Do you think he should be more broody? Let me know cause I'm struggling to find the right balance of edge lord and normal kid here. Sasuke will grow up to be less edgy in this DxD world, not only because he's already gone through the edginess but the time he's spending with the Himejima family is invaluable. I also wanted to throw in some comedic moments and hoped you guys didn't mind them!
5. I'm looking for a potential beta-reader and people to help brainstorm with and bounce ideas off of! If you're interested in helping me write this story then please leave a review or shoot me a message! I'd love to talk with you and get some help plan out this story.
I'd also like your opinions on the power level I'm putting the DxD verse vs the Naruto verse at. I want Sasuke to grow as both a person and in strength, and by doing this I need to make the DxD verse stronger then the Naruto verse, but the Naruto verse is no push over. I think having Baryon Mode Naruto/Isshiki around True Form Sirzechs is a fair judgement but if you don't think so then give me some suggestions.
Of course leave any criticism, reviews, questions, etc for me! The more questions the better, it'll help me think of what kind of story I'm building here! Sorry for the lack of action in the first 2 chapters but given how this chapter ended, you can expect much more in chapter 3 which will come out either this week or next!
Till then, See ya!
