Dragon Soul!
Son Goku sighed a heavy sigh as he watched his lineage come to an end. Son Goku IV, his last descendant, had just breathed his last breath, but left behind no legacy to carry on his noble line. For a half a millennium, Son Goku had walked the Earth, watching as his and Vegeta's lines protected the Earth countless times, and now it had come to end. Vegeta's line died out thirteen years ago, and now his had to. To think it had been 500 years since the Tournament of Power, and only 490 years since Goku had achieved Mastered Ultra Instinct, achieving immortality in the process. He had followed his first son's steps and became scholar, at least to the extent he understood business and politics greatly, and found them boring, but he had the gut feeling that they'd be necessary later on. He was also the Protector of the Earth's Dragon Balls, all 7 emblazoned on his chest in a circle.
"Shenron" said Goku, and the Mighty Shenron spoke inside his head instead of making an appearance
'Yes, Son Goku?' asked the voice of Shenron
"My line has died, and with it I find my time here on Earth must meet an abrupt end. Please take me where I am needed" said Goku, and the Dragon Balls glowed pure gold before Son Goku disappeared from Earth, and reappeared in a market street
'This is Planet Elementia, where the inhabitants use chakra instead of ki, which is weaker but more precise. A boy is here that is orphaned and would benefit from your interference. Wake me up in no earlier than a year' spoke Shenron, making Goku frown
'Why does he need me?' asked Goku, but got no response, so he began walking around
The sky was blue like Earth's sky, and no clouds littered it. The sun shined brightly upon the streets, but no inhabitants were nearby. He heard a childlike scream of terror, and traced it back to several streets to his immediate left. He sped towards the source of the terror filled scream, and came across a crowd of people in a huge, wide circle. What he heard made his blood run cold.
"Stay down and shut up! Demon! Nobody will save a demon like you!" screamed a man from within the circle and Goku snarled at the sound of flesh hitting flesh. Someone had thrown a punch.
"Kill the demon!"
"Make him pay!"
"Avenge Lord Fourth!"
These shouts made Goku confused. If they hated this 'demon'? Why was he still here? He made his way through the crowd, but what he saw made his blood boil.
A blonde child of no more than six years of age, lay cuddled on the ground, hugging his knees as a grown man brutally punched him repeatedly. The boy had cuts, bruises, and when the boy's brilliantly bright blue eyes met Goku's, Goku snapped!
"You dare attack a defenseless child!" bellowed Goku, releasing his ki, causing the crowd to fall to their knees from the weight of his power, the winds to whip about around him, and the man looked at Goku with a sneer
"Get lost, outsider! You know nothing about Konoha and the Demon it has to house!" screamed the man, earning a murderous glare from Goku
"Once upon a time I bestowed mercy upon the man who slaughtered my kinsmen, but after living as long as I have, I have learned that sometimes mercy is worse than mercilessly ripping my enemy's spine from his back!" spat Goku as he advanced on the now scared shitless man
"What's going on here?!" demanded a new voice that was lined with age, tiredness, but power, and Goku turned to see a gray haired man in red and white robes with a red and white hat with a symbol on it. At his sides were men and women in black and dark grey clothes and masks. They surrounded the nervous crowd, blocking them from fleeing.
"This scum has been beating this defenseless child and this crowd of scum have been cheering him on! Are you there leader?!" shouted Goku, his power still unleashed, and the man frowned as he studied a possible threat to the village, but one he knew was far superior in raw power than even Minato Namikaze, the late Fourth Hokage
"Anbu, take them to Ibiki" said the man, and the Anbu rounded up the crowd, but Goku grabbed the man who had beaten the child so mercilessly, and held his throat while he effortlessly lifted him into the air. The man gasped as air evaded him, the hand around his throat was choking the life out of him.
"Just calm down, sir! My T&I Department will deal with him!" shouted the man, but Goku merely turned his head towards the old man, and scowled
"This man shall rot in Hell for his transgressions at this child, and I will send him there...personally" snarled Goku, his Kakarot side was taking over, making him want nothing more than to wipe this scum from this planet's surface
"But his family! He has children and a wife!" argued the old man
"P-P-Please...my wife...a-and kids...I'm...there...only financial support" wheezed the man as his life flashed before his eyes
"Please sir, spare him" spoke the child for the first, and Goku saw the pleading look the child sent his way, subduing his inner Kakarot, before turning to man and dropped him like a sack of potatoes
"Apologize to the child, and if I ever see you lift a finger in an attempt to harm him, I'll kill you" spat Goku
"T-Thank...You" gasped the man to the child before Anbu took him away
"Naruto-kun, come with me. Please join us, er..." said the man before he realized he hadn't gotten this stranger's name
"Yours first" said Goku
"Lord Third, Third Hokage, standard titles, but my name is Hiruzen Sarutobi" said Hiruzen
"Goku, Son Goku" said Goku, and Hiruzen nodded before picking up the named Naruto like he were his own grandson in his arms, and carried the small child towards a red tower by a mountain with faces carved on it, once face matched Hiruzen's face, though much younger
Hokage's Office
"So, Son Goku, what brought you to Konoha?" asked Hiruzen while Naruto slept on his couch
"I came here from my home, another planet. I came here by using one of my wishes from immortal wish-granting dragon, phrasing so I came where I was needed. This boy was in danger, and I was brought here out of all the other planets. I see the doubt in your eyes" said Goku before narrowing his eyes dangerously at the disbelieving Sarutobi
"Have you any proof?" asked Hiruzen, so Goku removed his gi and undershirt, which made a certain purple haired hidden Anbu blush beneath her mask
Seven orange orbs were arranged in a circle on Goku's chest, but that was not the most impressive part. It was his build that also shocked Sarutobi. Goku's abs were rock solid, looked harder than steel *Pfft. If he only knew*, and muscles atop of muscles outlined his entire upper body!
"Shenron can make three wishes a year, but he likes his sleep, so he'll be grumpy about his short nap. Just tell me a name of a deceased loved one, and I'll ask Shenron to summon her spirit" said Goku, and Sarutobi immediately said
"Biwako Sarutobi!"
'Shenron, sorry about the short nap, but could you summon the spirit of Biwako Sarutobi?' asked Goku
'Yawn...Done' spoke the voice of Shenron before the Dragon Balls glowed, and the spirit of an old woman appeared. After an hour her spirit left back to Other World, and Sarutobi was loads happier now that he'd found closure.
