Review Response:

Bednarzcykmiki : Yep, I'm glad I was able to keep things interesting.

StrongGuy159: Interesting concept.

ShadowBloodegde9396: I don't think anyone expected Loona to blurt out the fact of their relationship. I know, many expect there to be something big, I hope I can do it well enough.

Jebest4781: I will keep up the good work.

Guest: Sadly, Octavia, Charlie, and Vaggie will not be in a harem with Naruto.

Gamelover41592: Yeah, it potentially could happen.

Chronosign: Thanks for the idea. Tonfa blade weapons like duel disks? Interesting idea.

MEATBICYCLE: Verosika having guns might be the path I follow when it comes to her weapon. Bayonetta's guns could work too.

Exia Zero: Red Eyes Black Dragon is my favorite from classic Yugioh. Oh, Ivy valentine's Sword could work too.

Fenris Silverblood: Blitz could do that, break into the party. OH, you've been paying attention.

MichaelTheFox: The picture on deviantart…. Yes.

Hellhammer: Love that song.

Nathair1: If I go spear (Guns and Valentine sword are on the table) I was thinking the Draupnir Spear from God of War Ragnarok. Yes, the Slytherin mind set is probably gonna happen.

Silvanium: True.

Animecollecter: OH, now that is awesome suggestion.

StarDustDragonknight: I have an emergency bunker. Just in case. There is enough room for everyone. Food… not so much. And the toilet is clogged.

Guest: Interesting suggestions.

Ice: Huh?

Nicholas: Yeah, when enough magic is used, the monsters and card effects can become real.

Reggad the Knife: Sup, buddy, been a long time. I was sad you stopped reading. Happy you enjoy the story.

Pitch: We shall see what happens.

Don da dun dun: I am confused.

EthanLukkar: Thank you, enjoy.

DaftMerc39: It was Flare's idea for Naruto's outfit. Dude… please check out the new deviantart picture Boo and I posted, it is in dedication to you.

Tavish Degroot: *Chugs Whiskey* I'm there with you.

Kohm: Like the idea.

Snorky: Well, there is a reason why Stella isn't lashing out.

Ratagator: OH, thank you, that could work.

Lihito: Lot of People recommending that sword.

Sexy Patatoes: We shall see.

Inari: Sorry, I am vastly confused.

Guest: Thank you.

OKAY, LETS READ THIS SHIT! I DON'T OWN NARUTO OR HELLUVA BOSS!

IMP Office…

Blitz sat alone in his office, choosing to spend the night at the office instead.

In his hand he had a paddle ball.

Lucifer's Castle…

Charlie Morningstar, wearing a beautiful dress gazed up toward the stars as guests started to arrive.

"Hon, it's time we also get ready."

"Okay, Vaggie." Charlie replied as she blinked, smiling sadly as she turned her gaze to her beloved.

Vaggie wore a dress like Charlie, with a slightly shorter skirt and sleeves, with a different design than Charlies.

Walking up to her girlfriend, Charlie kissed Vaggie's cheek, taking her hand.

"I am ready." She said with a smile.

The lovely couple walked arm in arm through the long halls.

"Hon, I've been wondering, but is there supposed to be something here?" Vaggie asked as she looked toward the wall.

Portraits and paintings of the Morningstar Family were hung on the wall.

Then there were the paintings of the Kings, Dukes, Princes, the Marquis, Earls, Knights and President's of Hell.

However, ONE painting was missing.

Charlie looked at the part of the wall that lacked a portrait.

"Hm, well," She said unsurely. "It has always been like that, so I never thought of it, Vaggie."

Vaggie pursed her lips and furled her brow.

'Okay, but why is there a painting missing?' She thought before she and Charlie continued toward the party.

Charlie felt a sense of dread in her stomach as she neared the party.

She never liked the celebration that was currently happening.

Not even as a child.

"Charlie, Vagatha."

"Mother/Ma'am." Charlie and Vaggie said, stopping as they turned to Lilith, Vaggie bowing respectfully.

Lilith smiled as she gracefully walked toward her daughter.

"My dear," Lilith said once she got close enough. "Your father and I will be entering soon, may we also have you and Vagatha with us by our side?"

"Of course, Mother." Charlie said with a smile.

Lucifer's Castle, Great Hall…

The Great Hall was massive, easily able to fit five hundred people with ease.

It was brightly lit, with a large stage with a live orchestra playing soft music and stairs at the opposite end of the entrance.

Naruto felt excited and awe struck as he and Octavia walked slowly through the crowd, arm in arm.

"Nervous?" Octavia giggled.

"Yeah, you could say that." Naruto said as he accepted a drink from a waiter who carried drinks.

Off to the side, Stolas and Stella stood with their Peers, with the Father Goetia worriedly glancing at his daughter and his friend.

"Stolas…" Stella whispered briskly and strictly. "Pay attention, please…"

Stolas returned his attention to the conversation, but didn't hear a single word.

The lights dimmed with a spot light on the entrance.

Fog emitted from the floor before the door opened.

Lucifer, Lilith, Charlie, and Vaggie entered, all attendees bowing in respect, moving out of the way for their King, Queen, and Princess to walk toward the stage, spot light following them.

Naruto looked up.

Lucifer's head… ever so slightly moved, his eyes drifting slowly in Naruto's direction.

Naruto stiffened.

* The Whistle of Death - Puss in Boots 2*

Naruto felt cold, hearing what could be considered a funeral march as he locked eyes with Lucifer.

This heart felt like it was slowing down with time, his eye-lock with the King feeling like an eternity.

It was as if Death, a wispy black fogged of a being gripping Naruto's shoulders, was whistling due to Naruto staring into the abyss, which stared back into the depths of his soul.

As the eternity wrapped up, time resuming, Lucifer's eyes returned to look in front of him.

Naruto released his breath, which he didn't even realize he was holding.

"Naruto?" Octavia whispered, gripping Naruto's hand. "What's wrong?"

Naruto was in a cold sweat, his eyes wide in shock.

He couldn't answer, but squeezed Octaiva's hand.

Concern filled the young Goetia, but she turned her attention to the Morningstar family.

"Ahem…" Lucifer cleared his throat upon reaching the stage with his family, taking the mic. "Welcome, all guests. From my Kings, Dukes, Princes, Marquis, Knights, Earls, and Presidents As well to all honored guests, especially to the Very Important People we have invited here. We welcome you once again into our home for the Gathering of Evil."

'Gathering of Evil?' Naruto thought as everyone rose into standing position.

"First and Foremost," Lucifer said, his ever-present grin beaming with happiness. "I am happy to announce my beloved daughter Charlie is once again in a loving relationship…"

"DAD!"

"What?" Lucifer said, breaking the image of the calm Prince of Darkness he had in his actions and voice, entering 'Dad Mode'. "But is true, Charlie."

No one… NO ONE laughed or chuckled, but smirks and smiles were all around, mixed in with scoffs, grunts, and sounds of annoyance.

Lucifer and Charlie bickered for less than a minute before he cleared his throat again.

"I am happy for this gathering, where we shall revel in the evil I have caused on the human world." Lucifer announced.

Naruto felt like he was a small beacon of light in a sea of malevolent deeds as everyone laughed, with select few staying silent and stoic, Stolas being one of them as Stella snickered.

Octavia was impartial.

Lilith took the center stage.

"In the centuries past," She stated, her allure draping the hall, many men feeling aroused. "Lucifer has done many great horrific deeds. We shall list but a few in no particular order, to not drag this on."

Lucifer stepped next to his wife, his long arm sliding around her waist, both smiling as a scroll appeared before them, floating as it unfurled itself.

"The Black Plague."

"Slavery."

"Mongol Conquest."

"Alexander the Great."

"The Chinese Famine."

"The Armenian Genocide."

"1918 Influenza Pandemic."

"World War 1."

"The Great Depression."

"World War 2."

"Pearl Harbor Bombing."

"Bombing of Nagasaki and Hiroshima."

"The Holocaust."

"The Assassination of JFK."

"Scaring Geezer Butler of Black Sabbath and thus leading to Ozzie Osborn writing the song: Black Sabbath."

"Allowing 4Kids to Dub and distribute anime in the early 2000's with heavy censorship."

'THAT was his doing?' Naruto thought, being a big fan of Black Sabbath and having watched the 4Kids distributed anime as a child.

"Now…" Lucifer announced, taking a glass of wine, raising it. "To Evil…"

Everyone with a glass raised it.

"TO EVIL!"

They drank heartily, and with that, the party resumed with Lucifer and Lilith exiting the stage to mingle.

Charlie and Vaggie walked toward the balcony.

"You okay hon?" Vaggie asked as Charlie pulled her outside, the brisk cold air nipping at her exposed skin.

"Yes, I am…"

Charlie was interrupted when Naruto and Octavia walked out onto the balcony, Naruto undoing his tie slightly to unbutton his jacket.

"Naruto, what was all that about ear…" Octavia started to say before she gasped, taking two steps backward, with wide eyes.

Naruto turned to see where Octavia was looking.

"Oh…" Naruto said as he took notice of Charlie and Vaggie. "Your Majesty…"

Naruto and Octavia bowed.

"Okay, you don't have to do that." Charlie said in a flustered tone. "You don't need to bow to me."

"Are you sure?" Naruto asked with Octavia looking up.

"Yes, I am sure. I may be royalty," Charlie said, touching her chest in sincerity. "But I don't look down on people. Please, raise your heads."

Naruto and Octavia stood upright.

"uh…" Naruto sounded, feeling like he wanted to say something, but couldn't figure out what to say.

"Well, I think greetings are in order, No Crees?" Vaggie said as she stepped between them. "Hello, I am Vaggie."

"Naruto." Naruto said as he looked at Vaggie.

"Hey, my eye is up here." Vaggie huffed, seeing Naruto looking her up and down.

"What? No I wasn't checking you out like that!" Naruto stammered in panic, embarrassment kicking in, looking at Charlie for help.

"¡Oye pervertido, no mires a mi novia!" Vaggie shouted, getting in Naruto's face.

"Oi, oi…" Octavia snapped, pulling Naruto away from Vaggie. "Naruto is already in a relationship, so why would he look at the Princess like that."

Vaggie blushed in embarrassment.

"Okay." She said, pouting as she crossed her arms.

Charlie laughed.

"So, your name is Naruto." She said with a smile, closing the gap, allowing the four to be within the same bubble. "Are you Japanese?"

"Yes…"

"So, you're a Sinner?" Charlie asked, curious.

"No, I am Hellborn." Naruto calmly lied. "I don't know who my parents are, but my parents adopted me recently."

"Oh," Vaggie said, calm enough to speak. "I'm sorry if Charlie brought up something bad."

"No, it is okay." Naruto replied, smiling as he thought of Millie and Moxxie.

"Oh, can you speak Japanese?" Charlie asked excited.

Naruto closed his eyes.

'So bright…' Naruto thought. 'She is so cute. Adorable. Like a doll.'

"Ahem…" He cleared his throat. "Nani o ittara ī no ka wakaranai, purinsesu. Shikashi, kore de jūbundearu koto o negatte imasu."

Charlie giggled.

Octavia sighed in relief.

"I'm so glad the Princess isn't big on ceremony." She whispered as Naruto and Charlie started to bond.

"Indeed." A sensual voice said from behind the group of four. "Princess Charlie doesn't stand on ceremony."

Naruto and Octavia moved and turned around to see the speaker.

She was as tall as an average height woman.

She wore kimono, garnet red with black and gold design on the sleeves. A black obi wrapped around her waist.

Her LONG red hair was tied up similar to a geisha with hair pins and accessories.

*Wano Geisha Nico Robin from One Piece*

She had wide birthing hips, moderate sized breasts with mahogany lipstick on her full lips and eyeshadow.

But the most captivating thing in Naruto's opinion were her blood red eyes with slit pupils and her large fox ears and tails.

They were a blood-orange shade, swaying behind her innocently, accenting her pale skin, due to her having a human with fox features appearance.

In her left hand, a folded fan. In her right, a long smoking pipe.

"Thank you… um…"

"Kurama," Kurama introduced with a smile. "I am the new noble. Your father may have mentioned it."

"Oh, yes, Father did." Charlie said as she approached Kurama, shaking her hand.

Vaggie's eye narrowed.

Kurama inhaled the smoke from her pipe, leaning in close to Charlie's face, looking at her intently.

"Oh, you are much cuter up close." Kurama purred, reaching out to touch Charlie's face.

Until Naruto grabbed her wrist, stopping her.

"Sorry, but you shouldn't touch someone without permission, especially…" Naruto said sternly as he looked into Kurama's eyes, which was weird since he stood over her by three feet. "When they are already in a relationship."

Kurama exhaled the smoke, looking up at Naruto, not backing down.

However, her irritation faded as a curious look took over.

Naruto felt her eyes roam over his body when he released her arm.

'Oh, god I feel violated…' Naruto thought as Kurama continued to look.

"You are right." Kurama said as she turned back to Charlie. "I apologize, My Princess."

Kurama bowed.

"Anyway," Kurama returned to Naruto. "Would you be so kind to escort me back inside? I have two people with me, and I would like a strong, handsome young man to help me?"

Naruto deadpanned.

"It's okay, Naruto." Octavia said as she put a hand on his shoulder. "Go help her, I'll return to my parents."

Naruto nodded before offering his hand to Kurama.

Giggling, Kurama pulled his hand into her body, pressing her chest into it.

"Alright, let's go find Stark and Tamamo." She announced, walking toward the door, Naruto leaning to the side to walk with her, due to the height difference.

Meanwhile, M&M's House…

Millie paced around the living room in circles in anxiety.

"Millie, can you help me really quick?" Moxxie called out as he was preparing dinner.

Verosika was beside him, hair up and with a cooking apron… and was frantically trying to put out a fire.

Moxxie quickly grabbed the fire extinguisher, dowsing the flame.

"Phew…" He sighed, turning to Verosika, who was down trodden. "Maybe you should cut the vegetables instead of cooking."

"I'll do it, fatty." Loona said as she entered the kitchen, removing her gloves to help Moxxie. "Vero, can you go snap Millie out of her funk? It's starting to get annoying seeing her pacing like that."

Verosika sighed in defeat, taking off her apron.

"I'll see what I can do." She mumbled, exiting the kitchen.

Verosika entered the living room

"He will be safe, you know." Verosika said as she felt unqualified to help anyone in emotional distress.

"I… I don't know what to think." Millie said as she sat down, allowing Verosika to sit, so both women were eye level. "He is my son, I love him so much. So I want what is best for Naruto. The fact he willingly walked into a lion's den of evil…"

Millie bit her lip.

"I just can't help by fear my boy is going to get hurt." Millie stated, gripping her pants.

Verosika felt her heart hurt at seeing Millie in distress.

"I understand, I am worried too." Verosika said as she touched her arm, where her tattoo is. "I am afraid of him getting hurt too. But I also…"

Verosika tried to continue.

But words were falling out of her brain as she tried to speak, mouth moving to speak, but nothing coming out.

"Dinner is ready." Moxxie called out as he started to set the table, Loona doing the finishing touches on their meal.

"Come on." Millie said, wiping her eyes before extending her hand to Verosika. "Let's go eat."

"Okay." Verosika said, taking Millie's hand.

The two entered the dining area, ready to eat.
