Naruto:The Natural Disaster

Chapter 5: Demonic Rebirth's and Heritage

It's been 2 week's since Naruto and the girl's left the Elemental Nation's and set sail for their new life on the open sea's. Ever since then the group of four have been enjoying their voyage, because since they were first out of sight of the Elemental Nation's did each and every single person feel a great weight lifted off their shoulders. The burden of just being in that cursed land and it's nightmares that came with it were finally free from them yet even then they couldn't forget their past lifes.

Over the last 2 week's, the crew of four have kept themselves busy even despite the calming sounds of the clear blue sea's, they always kept themselves in tip top form. For each one knew even for Akemi a bijuu you are to never let your guard down even in time's of peace. That was why, the four trained in slight warm up exercises to keep themselves up and better themselves while not damaging the boat they stood upon. Though some interesting things have happened with just the FIRST week alone.

For just on their second day during their voyage they encountered something in the skies which had the unfortunate luck of being hit by one of Mikoto's raiton jutsu's to which it had fallen upon the deck cooked to a crisp. Though what was strange about the bird was that it strangely enough had some kind of hat on its head with the word Nyūsu Kū (News Coo)stitched in. That wasn't the only thing for the bird was oddly enough carrying a sack of what looked to be papers of sort. Now normally such things were a waste of both time and not even worth looking into, but being former shinobi and a Bijuu of millenniums of knowledge all knew everything was resourceful...

And they were all proven correct...

When the four searched them they found out they were 'Newspapers' with slips of paper with specific individual's faces with the words 'Bounty' on them. That wasn't the only thing though because to Naruto's amusement did they find a map...

A Map of all things, yet this map was one that was both strange yet helped all of them realize just how much there is then the Elemental Nation's. For the map showed many things that made all four of their eyes widen in pure shock. Because compared to the lands they were seeing now, the Elemental nation's itself was nothing but, a speck of dirt compared to what they saw on the map.

Of course most of them didn't know what to do with it but, to naruto's slight surprise Mikoto did take more interest in the map then all four of them. It was like she was born to read map's and decipher them and make new's ones. Kushina had said she was one of the greatest minds she has ever seen for both in fighting and reading map's of enemy bases. But, their was more to it then that, Mikoto had actually stayed in her room working constantly at night drawing out the map, it's islands, and the name of each sea and the giant line of landmass as well.

It took a while but, Mikoto had come out and explained to them all what she was able to find out...

Flashback

''So, you've found out about what type of land's and sea's are then?'' questioned Naruto, his eyes now roaming over the new map Mikoto had drawn out from the other one only this time the words were clearer and having the name of each Sea named out yet the islands were still unnamed for it was pretty obvious...

They had yet to see another island...

'Still...its remarkably done...so good it beats every other Navigator's map I've seen hands down...'

Said woman nodded as she sat upon a chair, a small smile on her face as she grabbed her tool's and started to explain while both Kushina and Akemi looked over her shoulder with curious eyes as well. Taking a deep breath, Mikoto explained while pushing up her glasses bit; that was another thing it would seem Mikoto needed her glasses when she worked on the maps.

''Yes I have or most of them because I don't know if I'm entirely sure if their correct or not because the language is similar to our own but, at the same time not all the same. The land's and all are the same from the other map. It's just the name's that signify which sea is what and what that giant red line of land is. I was able to decipher what I could though so let me point out what we have here...'' seeing the nod from naruto she continued,

''From what I was able to see we have the sea itself which is called Burūshī (The Blue Sea), which itself is split up into four parts to which they have their own names. They are as followed: Kita no Umi (North Blue) which is the northern part of the map right here'' she pointed out to which she gained a nod from him. Seeing this she continued, ''The second one is called, Minami no Umi(South Blue) which is the southern part of the map. The third one is called Nishi no Umi (West Blue) this is on the western part of the map and the last one is called Higashi no Umi (East Blue). Those are the four sea's from what I could decipher.'' she explained before she looked up to see Naruto nodding.

''I see, then what are these lines right here and that giant red landmass?'' to which mikoto scratched her head a bit in embarrassment.

''Ah that, I forgot to explain, well that giant red landmass is called the Akai Tsuchi no Tairiku (The Red Line), from what I could tell it's a line that separates the four sea's thus making all but, one way to get to the other. That being this'' she said pointing in the center of the red line, to show 4 lines intersecting with each other as they all four connected to the four sea's. Then she pointed her finger on the last line before skimming it down the red line and onto a specific line.

''That was what the map called the Rivāsu Maunten (Reverse Mountain) to where the line here leads onto this line which is called the Idai Naru Kōro (The Grand Line). I don't know why it's called this but, that is what its called and where it is.'' she finished explaining to which Naruto nodded. That is before Kushina saw something before pointing it out,

''Ano, Miko-chan what's that right their?'' she said pointing at the green lines outlining the Grand line and touching the four sea's. Seeing this Mikoto gave a small smile before explaining,

''Ah yes, well that was what I could decipher called the Kāmu Beruto (The Calm Belt) though I have no idea why it's called that.'' Kushina blinked before nodding at this. Naruto, seeing the map once more after reviewing everything Mikoto told him in his mind and storing it away spoke,

''I see...and do you know where we are exactly?'' this made Mikoto frown as she looked at the map once more in confusement. She idly twirled a pencil between her fingers before letting out a sigh, ''I'm sorry Naruto-san but, without getting to another island I don't know exactly where we are...I'm sorry'' she said slightly disappointed in herself to which Kushina gently grasped her shoulder. Akemi just smiled softly while she glanced toward Naruto to see to her surprise smiling. She watched when he slowly placed a hand on Mikoto's shoulder making her freeze but, his next words made her drop her pencil in complete shock.

''That is of no worry Mikoto-san...you have done more then I could have asked of you for not only did you make a new map out of the first but, translated it for us. That will greatly help us all in the future...and since you've done such a excellent job...I want you Uchiha Mikoto...to be our crew's Navigator...'' with a small smile as he mentally chuckled seeing the shocked expressions of all the girls as the sound of a pencil clattering and rolling on the wooden floor sounded the room.

Mikoto couldn't believe what she just heard, Naruto wanted her to be the crew's Navigator? He trusted her enough for such an important task? A Task that keeps the person responsible for keeping the ship on it's trajectory and on course? She couldn't hardly believe it yet the words still rang true within the very depths of her mind. Slowly looking up, she saw the golden eyes of Naruto looking down on her, staring now into her onyx ones but, what truly shattered her right their was the approval in his eyes to which she just couldn't hold herself back...

Un-shedded tear's swelled up in her eyes while her hands trembled as her lips just quivered until it became to much for her. Which resulted in her speaking,

''I...I won't fail you...Naruto-san! I will be the best Navigator you will ever see! That I promise you with my very soul!'' she said with such conviction it slightly surprised both Akemi and Kushina. Naruto though, just nodded his head before he patted Mikoto's shoulder before walking toward the door.

''Then I expect nothing less from you then Mikoto-san...but do not tire yourself out...that would be hazardous to your health...which is something I don't want...'' with that he closed the door leaving behind three shocked women. Well that is before his words fully effected them which got reactions out of all of them. That being, Akemi gaining a giant vulpine teasing grin before she started speaking, ''Wow~ Mikoto-chan, seem's Naruto-kun is starting to hold you in higher regard now if those words are anything to go by...'' she said with a giggle. Mikoto just flushed a great beet red which Kushina caught while Akemi was too busy chuckling to herself to notice, leaning down Kushina spoke, ''Miko-chan...why are you blushing?'' she said with a grin of all things.

Mikoto just blushed greater to which Kushina noticed making her grin go wider before she leaned down to her ear and spoke, ''Is it because...that naru-kun's...trusting you with such a task...or...is it...because of something else...I wonder~'' teasing clear as the bright blue sky in her tone. Mikoto shivered at her words not wanting to meet her gaze as her face just answered Kushina's question right their...

It glowed even brighter to the point it matched Kushina's maroon blood red hair...

Kushina's grin turned into a smile which had no teasing, and not a shred of her usual mischief instead their was Content yet Happiness in her smile that which surprised Mikoto on the inside. Though she couldn't hold it back any longer when Kushina spoke her next words,

''I see...you like naru-kun as well ne?...Well I don't mind sharing...but...with only Akemi-chan...and you Miko-chan...anyone else...and I would have killed them already...so...do your best to gain his love...because you have my blessing...'' with that Mikoto couldn't hold herself back before her nose gained a nosebleed before her eyes rolled to the back of her head as she passed out on her desk.

Kushina smiled......

Flashback End

Ever since then, Mikoto has kept her word and not knowing it impressed naruto each day with her work. At night she would continue to analyze the map over and over, looking over every single detail major or minor she didn't care. Mikoto wanted to prove herself and she did day after day, not only improving her already amazing skill in Navigating but, the detail of where they were exactly. For her to do this, Mikoto has been outside looking around on the 'Birds Nest' as sailors call it before writing down what she could get before rushing to her room.

This worried both Kushina and Akemi but, Naruto assured them both if she got to chaotic he would have a talk with her. Thankfully enough though she did slow down a bit on the fourth day of their voyage but, that was because of something else entirely. It got their attention she was slowing down more then usual and was starting to get a bit more...

Moody you could say...

It got to the point where Akemi was sensing something odd from Mikoto until it fully got her attention, which was the fifth day of their voyage...

Flashback

Walking down the hallway towards the Captain's quarters was Akemi, a serious expression on her normal easy going and somewhat teasing face. It's been a total of five day's since their voyage and since then Akemi has never been happier but, when Mikoto started acting strangely she started looking into her genes with her demonic smell. For awhile she was only smelling humanity, anxiety, happiness and other such thing's but, one thing did catch her attention and she needed to talk with naruto about it right now!

Coming up to his door, Akemi took a breath before,

Knock! Knock!

''Come in...''

Hearing this, Akemi opened the door to see Naruto sitting at his desk reading over what appeared to be another map of Mikoto's. His facial expression etched with concentration as his eyes roamed over the map with extreme intensity it made Akemi slightly ever so slightly shiver. Not out of fear, or some foolish notion such as that...

But it was out of Excitement...

Shaking the chills out of her, Akemi walked forward and spoke, ''Naruto-kun...we need to talk...now'' hearing her words he looked up to see her serious expression thus seeing it. He put down the map the intensity in his eyes completely gone now yet the coldness of which he always had still lingered.

''Yes what is it Akemi-chan?'' ever since the voyage, his relationship between himself and Akemi was somewhat strange since Naruto knew the bijuu before him has known about him as long as Kushina has. She has been their alongside Kushina throughout her and his life's and has seen him for what he is, she like Kushina knows the deeds he's done. Everything about him does Akemi know through Kushina, so he only seemed it fair for him to be friendly around Akemi.

Though that didn't mean Akemi wasn't just friendly around him...

''Well its about Mikoto-chan, you see for awhile now we've all been sensing something wrong of her as of late, correct?'' to which he nodded. He's seen her slow change and he could see something was wrong with her to which he has questioned her about it but, she had told him not to worry but, it did the exact opposite and it made him worry.

He didn't really know why he was worrying over her but, for some reason in just a week Mikoto had already washed away most of his suspicion of her with how much she worked and how dedicated she was to what she was great at. Truly he couldn't find a reason for it but, he knew one thing and that was he would do anything to help Mikoto since she wasn't only Kushina's best friend but also...

Uchiha Mikoto...was his Nakama! (Comrade)

That was more then enough of a reason for him...

''Well, for the past day or so I've been sniffing out her scent to see if I could find anything wrong with her and it seems she is pretty normal overall...but...'' when Naruto heard the 'but' his eyes narrowed when he saw Akemi's troubled expression.

''Yes?'' the Kitsune bijuu let out a sigh before looking him in the eye and spoke, ''Well it would seem over all the feelings she has is one she is trying to cover up and that's some kind of pain. Lately not only her scent showed an underlining tint of pain but, her body is started to show signs of physical pain not on the outside but on the inside and due to my perceptive vision I can tell you right now...something is going on with Mikoto-chan and her body...and I know what it is...'' this made naruto perk up at her words.

''Oh, what is it then?'' Akemi this time took it upon herself to take a seat on naruto's bed before speaking only this time Naruto idly noted her crimson slitted eyes were now dead serious with a glow in her eyes that showed how important her next words were gonna be.

''Well it would seem, Mikoto-chan...isn't technically human'' Once naruto heard those words his eyes as well gained a serious glint before he stood up completely shadowing over Akemi's form by a good few inches. His face set in a stone firm expression as he eyed Akemi for any kind of deception from her words once he saw none he let out a sigh before speaking, ''I see, then please elaborate as to what she really is...from what I've seen she's as human as can be...'' this made the bijuu shake her head.

''That's the thing you see, Mikoto-chan doesn't know it either but, from what I can tell deep within her I smelled a very familiar scent which was that of another demon that was from makai. This demon had the ability to mask its scent in which way it wanted so it couldn't or didn't want to be found. The only ones that could smell them was me and my clan the Kitsune's but, the demon race themselves though were quite powerful rivaling bijuu actually. How Mikoto has their blood is probably from one of the demons mating with Mikoto's ancestor and the blood of the demon watered down through the centuries till it couldn't be awakened.'' Naruto nodded at her explanation

''I see...then what is she then and is it possible to awaken her demonic blood?'' this got a surprised reaction from Akemi but, she nodded either way.

''Well, for one she is what makai has called for Eon's the Yami no Gurkha Ookami (The Darkness Hellfire Wolf), their a wolf that specialize in the makai elements of both Darkness and Hellfire which are both extremely powerful, powerful enough to injure bijuu. They are very powerful and are to be taken when sighted with the utmost of extreme caution yet I'm kinda surprised Miko-chan is one of them as well. Anyway onto your second question, to awaken Mikoto's blood that is if she wants to, I would be able to awaken her blood fully and completely by using one of my Demonic technique's but, in doing so their would be one drawback...'' this made Naruto raise an eyebrow in curiosity

''That being?'' Akemi took a breath before frowning

''Mikoto will no longer be human, she would be a full demon but, she would still be able to use her Sharingan (Copy Wheel Eye) due to the bloodline being demonic in nature as is most other bloodlines. Her overall skill's would skyrocket like her Physical Strength, Speed, Reflexes, Durability, Stamina and both her sight and smell would improve to demonic levels having them able to see farther sights then any human and some demons could possibly see and sense of smell would grow making her able to smell any scent no matter what it is and how far it is. That particular scent is what most of her kind favors in though. Lastly, like myself Mikoto would become immortal where she can't and won't die by young age and won't grow old. She will stop aging at 21 and she will gain a regenerative healing to where her she can regenerate a lost limb but, that would take some time getting used to.'' this got a nod from Naruto as he ushered her to continue

''And next she would have a demon form like myself when I'm in my beast form or a hybrid form with only showing some of her animalistic features like her tail's, and ears. Other then that not much else...though I do need to ask...why are you interested in awakening her blood?'' she with a curious tone.

Naruto listening through her explanation nodded through it all as he thought about Mikoto's reaction when she hears of this. It made him smirk a bit when she does hear about it as he already knows Kushina's reaction to it that being she'd probably glomp Mikoto while grinning cheerily through it all.

Honestly it was an amusing thought...

Shaking his head he looked back at Akemi remembering her question to which he replied, ''Isn't it obvious? Well from what you told me this is starting to hurt her and I can't have that. Mikoto-san is our crew member and I'll be damned before she is hurt because of something as trivial as this that is why Akemi I want her demonic blood awakened before it totally consumes her and harms to beyond all type of healing...and I can't have that for one she's Kushina-chan's friend and by extension yourself so...I don't want...her dead...'' hearing this Akemi let loose a grin so big Naruto wondered if it would split her face.

That's when she acted...

''THANK YOU NARUTO-KUN!'' she yelled to which she lost her composure and actually pounced on Naruto making fall back from his chair and onto the floor. He let out a painful grunt, before he looked down to see the vulpine grinning Akemi, her now animalistic features showing her two fluffy red fox ears and nine flowing tails all twitching in excitement.

Naruto gained a twitch in his eyebrow before he cast his gaze down onto Akemi before he spoke, ''Oi oi get off me...'' but she didn't listen instead she to his surprise snuggled closer while to his ever growing surprise did Akemi let out...

A purr...

A purr of both clear mischief and Seduction that only a Kitsune of Akemi's caliber could ever display, her mouth set in a smirk so vulpine it made the Z-ranked Shinobi sweat a bit. He idly watched when her hands slowly rubbed and groped his muscles from his chest to his abs. His eyes widen slightly when he felt Akemi's hands go lower as her smirk widen even more.

Akemi was also a major tease especially around him...

Reacting quickly he grasped her hands firmly yet not enough to snap her wrists like he's done to many others before speaking, ''Akemi-chan...get off me now or no sleeping with Kushi-hime and me for the next month...'' hearing this made Akemi's crimson slitted gems widen comically in fear before completely jumped off Naruto making him mentally smirk.

Looking at her, Naruto spoke once more this time all amusement gone and replaced with the stone cold serious golden eyes of which he was known for.

''Now Akemi, enough fooling around...I want you to get both Kushina and Mikoto have them all meet me in here including yourself. I want her blood awakened before this pain of her goes any further...'' hearing both 'no questions asked' tone and seeing his golden orbs staring her down without a hint of hesitation of what he was telling her. It just showed her how much this one man proved to be the Greatest- no the Ultimate Alpha. He showed no fear before her because he and she both knew he had the power to match her own both physically and mentally.

'Yet somehow...I feel...there's so much more to him...why is that...'

''Akemi-chan...did you hear me?'' his voice shook the Kitsune from her thoughts remembering his words quickly, Akemi nodded before leaving the room with a sway of her hips and a suggestive wink from her before she left through the door. Through it all, naruto just let out a sigh of both annoyance...

And ever so slight amusement...

'That woman will be the death me...'

Flashback End

And on that same day, did Akemi round up both Kushina and Mikoto before taking them to Naruto's Quarter's saying it was an important announcement.. it confused them but, when they reached his quarter's were they met with a serious Naruto standing before them with his eyes staring straight at Mikoto. It honestly made the woman fidget with his golden eyes on her, staring straight at her, it was like his eyes stared straight into her very soul; searching for something.

He told them that Akemi had told him of something about Mikoto that need's to be said and said now, to which confused both Kushina and Mikoto especially but Akemi spoke either way. Explaining of what she was able to find out about Mikoto and her hidden genes. And also to Mikoto's shock, the reason behind her inner pain from within her body. It was explained to Mikoto's growing shock and Kushina's surprise, that her demonic blood was forcing itself out due to Akemi's youkai always being near Mikoto thus sparking up the youkai blood within her.

After hearing everything, Kushina did exactly what Naruto thought she would do...

Flashback

''Sugoi! That's so cool, so Mikoto-chan's like Akemi-chan! That is so...so...AMAZING! DATTEBANE!'' shouted the obviously excited Kushina, her mouth formed into a grin so big it looked ready to split her angelical face. And like naruto had anticipated, she was hugging the shocked Mikoto...

Who was turning blue...

''Uh...Kushi-chan...let go of Mikoto-san...she's turning blue-no now purple...'' said Uzumaki blinked dumbly before looking back at Mikoto only for her eyes to widen comically before quickly letting go of Mikoto, who at that moment fell on the floor greedily gasping for the oh so precious oxygen. She loved Kushina, yes but, the woman had the strength of a Titan when she was excited!

''Hehehe Gomen Miko-chan guess I got a bit too excited 'ttebane~'' she said with a sheepish grin to which Mikoto just smiled.

Watched this, naruto was watching with amusement clear in his usual impassive eyes, truly it was an amusing sight even in such a situation, Kushina was always able to lift up the tense atmosphere that invaded them. No matter how small or big, Kushina always had that ability to lift the spirits of those that were around here; that's one he loves about Kushina and a reason of how he fell for her in the first place.

Though when she's pissed or angry...even he wouldn't get in her way...

Akemi through it all was smiling, she always found her container's attitude adorable since it reminded her much of a newborn kit's attitude. Though the two went back to normal afterwards after seeing the serious atmosphere returning once more and stronger then ever. Letting out a small gulp Mikoto spoke, ''Okay...so...if that's the case...I won't deny I've been getting pains in my body...like something was forcing it to shift, and churn...I don't know why but, if this is the reason I want it to stop...by any means necessary...'' she said to the three, a tone they have grown accustomed to but, one that Naruto approved of all the more.

It was a tone of complete dead set determination that of which could not and never will be broken, honestly Naruto could tell Mikoto had a strong will not many could even meet or even begin to hope to match with. He had to say, Mikoto was an interesting woman that was for sure but, that did not mean he wasn't suspicious of her because he was if only slightly. It's just that he had come to admire Mikoto's determination and will since it was like Kushina's really.

'Heh...good answer...Mikoto...'

Though on the outside he showed no difference accept the approval in his eyes showing, ''Very well then, Akemi will be the one to awaken your blood...so I want you to follow whatever she say's till its done, understood?'' to which he got a quick nod. Seeing this, he turned his attention toward Akemi and nodded.

''Then let's begin...Akemi if you will'' to which the bijuu nodded before walking up to Mikoto. After doing so, Akemi spoke with a smile of her own which somehow eased some of Mikoto's inner worries. She watched as Akemi placed her right hand on her forehead before speaking,

''Don't worry Mikoto-chan...this won't hurt a bit...though I do got to say, thing will be...different when you notice the...changes...'' she said with a smirk making Mikoto quirk an eyebrow.

''What do you...mean...by...changeeesss~'' Mikoto said only to pass out from the sudden overload of youkai shrouding her body which was coming from Akemi and her outstretched hand. She quietly looked at the passed out Mikoto before looking back at Naruto only to see him give her a nod and Kushina smile in gratitude. Seeing this she continued,

''Alright here we go...Akuma no majikku: Akuma no chi no mezame (Demon Magic:Awakening of Demon Blood)'' with that Akemi focused her youkai into Mikoto further only this time, it seeping within her and targeting the hidden Ookami blood with her. The technique she sued was something only she knew, it was sued like it was made out to be. It targeted one's inner genes even to the watered down version's and literally awoke from within them. So when using this, Mikoto's hidden heritage...would be awoken...

Destroying all that made her human...

Suddenly without warning, a pressure of an non-existent gravity slammed down on them all but, to Naruto, Akemi and Kushina it wasn't anything they haven't felt before. I mean one who has faced and beaten Bijuu and another that was a practically Bijuu and Queen of the Kitsune will make you immune to such pressure while Kushina was the container to Akemi and pretty much immune to it as well.

This pressure was coming from Mikoto her form now having an outline of pure darkness the pitchest of Black surrounded her body and it seemed to grow more and more with each passing second. The pressure got higher and higher further surprising Akemi on the inside. Soon enough, the black youkai surrounded Mikoto fully in a humanoid cocoon; yet through it all the three watching occupants said nothing but, watched on one curious, another interested and the last worried with also excitement swelling in her body.

It took only a few minutes but, soon enough the pressure lowered completely till it was like it wasn't even their, before the cocoon started to 'Crack' with white lines appearing. No one breathed for a moment, that is until the cracks started to appear more and more until it came to the point the cocoon was surrounded with these visible cracks.

And with that, the cocoon suddenly started to disappear as it flaked off like old paint before the 'flakes' disappeared into practically nothing. Thus, this left behind the new Mikoto...

She wasn't all that changed except for a few things; which were like Akemi said she now had a few animalistic features to her body. Them being, two pair of black randomly twitching wolf ear's but, to Akemi's shock four wolf tail's upon her back side. That wasn't the only thing for her canine's were see able showing they were much longer then before as the nails on her hands became longer and sharper like claws.

All in all though, Mikoto didn't change that much...

Akemi's eyes were slightly wide as were Naruto's own but, they were having similar thoughts running through their minds at what they were seeing before them.

'Oh...my...kami...she already has FOUR tails!' was Akemi's thought

'Hmm 4 tails...impressive...very impressive...' was Naruto's thoughts on the matter

Kushina's reaction though was the most expected...

''KAWAII!'' was her shout that awoke Mikoto groggily before she felt a weight smash into her she would have looked to see who it was. Before she felt this person doing something that sent shivers down her spine and not being able to restrain herself let out a moan of approval...

This got both Akemi and Naruto's attention, so when they looked at Mikoto they saw to their immense amusement, Kushina laying upon Mikoto's back grinning childishly while she scratched Mikoto's new appendages. She was like a child in a candy store really, seeing her giddy excited expression and her wide gleaming violet eyes sent Akemi into a state giggling as Naruto just smirked at the display...

'Hm well...things are gonna get a lot more interesting...that I can tell...'

And oh how right he was...

Flashback End

Ever since then, Mikoto was shown the ropes of what she was by Akemi who has know about her kind the longest. Which took a day or two but, Mikoto was getting the hang of her new body and had already learned by Akemi how to transform but, didn't dare do so lest she destroy the very ship they stood upon. That didn't mean she wasn't able to transform into smaller versions of herself which Akemi taught her, which was her being able to transform into a one tailed cub...

Which earned her a death hug from Kushina...

Though that wasn't the only thing for Mikoto also learned from Akemi what the Ookami specialized in and helped her learn the way's of controlling her elements which were both the Darkness element and Hellfire yet to Akemi's shock was her affinity in both elements extremely High. More so then she's seen with other demons from makai and even some Demon Lords as well!

That was why, Akemi started helping her control the elements which at first started to out to be both incredibly hard to do so but also...

Very Destructive...

It was one time where Mikoto slipped with her controlling and thus part of the ocean was completely turned into a giant crater with water still filling it. It was the craters size though that was the problem...

Because it was the size of the Ichibi...

From then on, Naruto made completely sure that Mikoto's control was at its peak even if he had to improvise with the exercises to control her elements. He wasn't gonna have the ship destroyed like part of the ocean was...

No he certainly was not!

But during those past two day's, Mikoto has been acting differently then before, or maybe it was something else. Which it was when both Kushina and Akemi could see that Mikoto was being much more affectionate toward Naruto. Akemi theorized that Mikoto's budding feeling's for him grew ever so much more tremendously through her transformation. Making her more courageous around naruto then ever before.

This earned Kushina's smile knowing Mikoto would finally be showing how determined she was to her Captain and Naruto as well...

But, things also happened because on the ninth day of their voyage during Mikoto's training, did the oddly silent Kushina wish to speak with Akemi about. Something that was very important that it was so serious she didn't want to tell Naruto or Mikoto about it and that's saying something if Naruto wasn't told.

What she spoke to Akemi about though changed her life forever...

Flashback

''Okay Kushi-chan...whats wrong? You've been acting strange lately so tell me...what's up?'' questioned the worried Kitsune. She and Kushina were standing inside her room with Akemi standing infront of Kushina, with said woman sitting on the edge of her bed with an obvious look of nervousness. Honestly it confused Akemi a bit but, she decided to see what was wrong with her former container.

Taking a deep breath, Kushina looked up at Akemi showing her nervous violet eyes, ''Well, its just that...Akemi-chan...you know about me as long as I've known you...I mean I like...to think of ourselves as sisters really...and I won't lie to you since you would be able to tell if I was or not...'' Akemi nodded with this while inwardly Kushina's words touched her heart, truly Kushina thought of them as sisters and she agreed. They were honestly sister's in everything...

'Except blood...though...' she idly thought

''That's why...after thinking about my life, my battles, my experiences...everything...and compared to what Naruto-kun has faced...it shows...that everything I've done...can't even compare. Everything from when I was a child to now, Naruto-kun has always been their protecting me, training and fighting to keep our clan safe. Even now, he fights enemies that are far stronger then I could comprehend...'' Kushina further said as tears started to build up in her beautiful violet eyes yet she refused to let them fall.

Akemi looked at Kushina with a sad expression, ''Kushina...'' she started only to be interrupted when said woman just looked at her with an expression that practically made Akemi let out a small gasp...

It was a Pleading expression that was so fierce, so deep that it truly made a such a hit into Akemi's heart that it hurt her so. The Kitsune could only watch while suppressing the urge to hug Kushina right their, telling her it was okay; but that would be wrong. Kushina had...no...

She needed to finish what she was gonna say...

''That's why...Akemi-chan...if their was anyway...I mean is their any possible way...I can become a demon as well? I know this is a serious question but, Akemi-chan...like I told you before...your like a sister to me and I want to be able to fight, become stronger then I already am. I don't know why but, I feel like we'll be having many more battles ahead of us even if we left the Elemental nation's to get away from fighting...I just have this feeling we'll be going into another life full of fighting...and this time...Akemi-chan...'' Kushina's voice becoming more and more Determined that it shocked the already surprised Akemi.

Though when Kushina looked her in the eyes, the Kitsune Queen couldn't hold back a smile when she saw the once lovable violet orbs now them being a pair of violet determined gem's that seemed to be unable to fall, unable to lose, and most of all they let off a pure un-breakable and indestructible Resolve that of which Akemi has only seen in one other person.

That being Naruto...

'Heh...their more alike then they realize...'

Shaking her head Akemi stared down Kushina with an emotionless gaze they portrayed not a hint of what was going through her head as a tense silence followed through until Akemi spoke, ''I see...are you absolutely certain of what you asking? Are you truly willing to become a demon so you can fight by his Naruto-kun's side and completely throw away your humanity? Because if you do...their is no turning back...'' her words cold as ice and hard as the strongest metal. Her crimson slitted eyes staring at Kushina with not an ounce of any emotion.

Only to Akemi's utter shock yet immense Happiness that is brought a tear to her eye as Kushina not only glare into her eyes with her own determined ones, she literally stood right infront of akemi staring at her without a hint of hesitation or fear. The intensity that was in her eyes only strengthened beyond what was their before, honestly it was like Akemi was staring right into the very eyes of Naruto himself.

Soon enough though Kushina spoke with not a single shred of both Hesitation nor Fear of what she was asking, ''Akemi-chan...I told you...I will do anything and I meant it, I want to fight by his side and no longer having the look at his back as he fights...I want to be their...by his side! I told you once and I will tell you again if I must...I am willing to throw my humanity to fight alongside him...'' she finished standing tall before Akemi with her stare firmly in place no sign of breaking nor shattering under The Kitsune Queen's own crimson ones.

After seeing Kushina standing their completely straight and hearing her words over and over again within her mind did Akemi finally break from her emotionless stature to a more sisterly one which surprised Kushina even more so when the bijuu slowly walked up to her and brought the younger woman into a hug. Too surprised was she, did Kushina not see the tears spilling from Akemi's eyes nor the red glow coming from her.

''Kushi-chan...you have no idea how glad I'm hear you say those words...to hear you think of me like a sister...even if your foolish to think your useless because your not your anything but that. You are the one that drives naruto-kun so far to do what he has done, you are to soul reason why he's done what hes done...But...I won't disagree with you for some of what you say is true...'' she said rearing her head back to look into Kushina's shocked violet orbs.

''Their are always gonna be battles we all face whether they be physical, mental or emotional they will always be there. No matter where we go there will always be enemies to fight no matter how small or big they will be there. But then again...what fun is life without a little excitement eh?'' she said a smirk making Kushina giggle at.

''But...if you are truly wanting to do this...to become a demon...then I know of one way that would do it and also...'' trailing off with a smirk did Akemi lean down toward Kushina before their noses were practically touching. Her smirk now turning into a vulpine Kitsune grin that made Kushina blink dumbly at.

''It will also...finalize us as true sisters...when I do this...we will be true blooded sisters...'' this made Kushina's eyes widen ever so greatly that they threatened to pop out of their respective sockets. She couldn't believe what she just heard yet even now the words echoed within her ear's like a sounding horn. She just stood their staring at Akemi with a blank expression...

Before her face broke into such a grin that it slightly unnerved Akemi as her violet orbs swelled up in both shedding tears and excitement. Akemi knew that one of Kushina's small dreams was for her to be a true sister to her, not like they were now but, true sisters. Siblings of the same blood and flesh. Hell they looked like twin's already but, that was just in appearance...

Well except for the eyes of course...

''R-r-really...?'' Akemi just nodded confirming it completely with that Kushina let it loose...

''Wooohooo! Thank you Akemi-nee-chan! Thank you, Dattebane!'' she shouted jovially with her arms wrapped firmly around said Kitsune Queen who at the moment was smiling at both Kushina's reaction and when she called her 'Nee-chan'

''Alright your welcome but, I need you to stop twirling me around so I can perform the technique, so please put me down and stand still...this is gonna be a very delicate procedure...''' hearing the serious tone in her voice Kushina quickly let go of Akemi and stood stock still. Seeing this the bijuu let loose a small smile before patting Kushina on the shoulder.

''I see your ready...or maybe excited to get started? Either way...do not move while I do this...okay?'' she got a nod from the red headed Uzumaki. Her grin still in place making Akemi shake her head even more with an amused smile before she stood up straight, her crimson slitted eyes gaining a more serious glint. She watched when Akemi both her palms with her claws before mumbling words she couldn't even begin to pronounce but, it oddly sounded like she was speaking an incantation of some sort.

After a minute or so Akemi stopped her incantation before she spoke,

''Okay here we go...Kitsune majikku: Kitsune rinyūaru tensō (Kitsune Magic: Kitsune Renewal Transfer)'' with that Akemi slammed her hands on the floor before to Kushina's amazement the blood didn't splatter but it started to form around her in a unique designed circle that looked oddly like a fuinjutsu design. She didn't have time to further examine for the blood designed circle seemed to glow before it outright erupted in a crimson light that surrounded the startled yet still standing Kushina.

She watched fascinated as the crimson blood red glow seemed to get brighter and brighter before suddenly she felt herself becoming a bit drowsy. She never noticed the blood circle slowly swirl out of figure as the crimson glow intermingled with the blood giving it a demonic crimson glow. Slowly the blood swirled around Kushina's drowsy figure before it stopped completely...

Then without warning it shot up over Kushina's body from head to toe, before it slowly traveled into Kushina's mouth yet she didn't respond to it or the taste all she did was stand their with a drowsy expression. The bloody quickly traversing into her mouth and through body entering every vein, artery and every other organ. That is when the blood when it was fully inside Kushina did...

She suddenly glow pure white in a blinding light to strong it made even Akemi shut her eyes from the blinding light yet through it all a smile crept up onto her beautiful face.

'Hehehe...Now Kushi-chan is truly...my sister...'

When she felt the light go down did she slowly open her eyes to see a sight Akemi smiled greatly at. For it was her former container, now turned Blood sister laying on the wooden floor and like Mikoto a few changes to her appearance but not so much. Her body more lean yet slim but the sign of muscle within showed her body was built for extreme speeds that which none could decipher. Her long maroon blood red hair now sprawled out on the floor and her bangs covering her sleeping face only her hair looking more like the finest of silk and the greatest of fur. Over all she didn't look the least bit changed...

Except for her extra...Appendages...

Them being to Akemi's slight shock which soon turned to extreme pride when two crimson furry fox ear's sat upon her head instead of where her human ears used to be which they twitched ever so randomly as did her nose making her look ever so adorable. Her canines longer then usual and her nails now sporting claws much like Mikoto. But what made Akemi feel so proud is what was flowing on Kushina's backside just an inch from her butt...

That being 5 flowing 6 feet in length crimson fluffy fox tail's...

'Oh my...kami...5 tails...already! Miko-chan was a surprise but...this...heh you really are...unpredictable Kushina-chan...then again that's to be expected...from my little sister...'

Akemi let loose a giggle of amusement that didn't seem to wake the sleeping newly turned Kitsune Uzumaki Kushina. Slowly Akemi walked up to her new sister before gently picking up her frame before laying her down in her bed before covering up her up. That is when she laid a small kiss on Kushina's forehead getting a small grumble from the sleeping red head making Akemi smirk.

''Mmmm~ Naru-kun...'' she mumbled with a small pink hue rising to her face, it took everything Akemi had to not burst into laughter. She had a slight idea of what Kushina was dreaming of and she could only say...

The Kitsune genes were already affecting her deeply...

Letting out a sigh, Akemi took one more look toward Kushina before walking toward the door; opening it before closing it behind her...

Once she was outside though did Akemi let out a sigh before a small smile grew upon her face,

''How long have you been there...'' she said looking to her left to see her, Kushina and Mikoto's Captain Uzumaki D. Naruto leaning against the wall. His hair shadowing his eyes which did not reveal anything that might be raging in his golden orbs. Though seeing as his body stance was tense it showed he had been their for awhile...

''Since the beginning...'' he answered making Akemi close her eyes knowing he heard Kushina's words. She looked toward him to see he hadn't moved from his spot making her quirk an eyebrow in curiosity. That is before he spoke once more,

''Akemi-chan...now that Kushi-hime has taken this path...as did Mikoto-san...I want you to do everything you can...to help train them in their powers, for I have a feeling we're gonna end up in a very hostile life. One that needs all of us ready to fight, we all need to be ready for the on coming storm that's ahead of us...'' he spoke to which Akemi just gave a nod signifying she understood. Seeing this he continued,

''Good...then go get some rest now Akemi-chan...training for the two starts tomorrow...'' finishing his explanation Akemi nodded before walking past him...

But before he could react Akemi spun around and to his inner surprise did he feel a wet pair of lips peck his cheek. Which soon ended when a smiling Akemi pulled back showing her grateful-and if his eyes were playing tricks on him-loving gaze. He didn't get time to say anything though when Akemi turned around and kept walking with a sway of her hips that could make any other man melt their on the spot...

''Good night naru-kun~'' with Akemi left leaving behind a slightly confused Naruto before he just turned around hiding his smirk and went his way; back to his quarters did he idly touch the cheek where he could still feel Akemi's wet lips were.

'Heh...little vixen...'

Suddenly out of nowhere naruto's eyes widened in both confusement but also pain before his hand suddenly lashed out to hold himself against the wall as the other went to his mouth.

(Cough)(Cough)

Looking at his hand that he coughed into his eyes widened slightly when he saw blood of all things; scowling he clenched his bloodied hand. Letting out a silent curse did he continue on showing no other outward difference then usual but, on the inside was different...

'Dammit...what's wrong with me?'

Flashback End

After that day, many things have followed for instant Akemi stuck to her promise and started to train both Mikoto and Kushina heavily in their new demonic powers. Teaching them to further control their new energy source of youkai that was just like chakra only demonic and 100x denser and stronger then normal chakra. She trained them both physically and mentally in the powers, helping them get sued to their new appendages so they could get sued to them and use them in battle.

Sure, Kushina had a hard time walking around like Mikoto did at first when she was turned as well. Despite that though, Kushina oddly got the hang of it rather quickly and even more so was able to use her tails like it was second nature as did Mikoto. Akemi explained that since Kushina had been her former container she was already part Kitsune thus she was able to get sued to her tails rather quickly while Mikoto had training early on even if it was just a few days. Kushina also to Akemi's surprise was able to morph quite easily into her one-tailed kit state like she did but, then again Kushina was her former container thus again anything a Kitsune does would come naturally to her...

Thus the two continued their training with Akemi watching over them, correcting their mistakes and improving on them and their strengths, she explained to Kushina that like Mikoto her natural abilities had just went through the roof making her all the more deadlier then before. She had also said like her the Ookami demons and which specialized in their elements did the Kitsune specialize in their own.

That being the first one Kitsune-hi (Fox Fire) which Akemi said was able to not only to tear through Ningenkai's (Human World) magma like butter and make it look like warm water in comparison to Heat it also was even up to part with the flames of Hellfire themselves. It was also used as a self-sufficient body armor that Akemi only knew of. The woman taught her new sister how to do this where manipulating the flames over her body forming an armor of sorts that both protects you from any and all elements of fire, Water or Ice.

That wasn't the only thing though for she also taught her how to manipulate the flames and bend it to her will to create weapons ranging from Swords to Katana's and Kunai's to Shuriken. Though that wasn't the only thing she worked on for during the night's Akemi had her and Mikoto meditating making them further their control in their youkai so they could strengthen their powers. She also had them further strengthening their physical prowess seeing as they were physically fit yes but, to Akemi's standards they looked pathetic...

She had them doing exercises that would make Maito Gai himself cry in both pain and fear before running back to the warm presence of his mother...

That's how extreme it was...

Due to both Kushina and Mikoto being demons, their bodies were much more stronger and durable to handle then humans could ever hope to have, that was why the training Akemi put them through didn't turn them into a puddle of mush by the end of each day. Because Akemi had them doing exercises like running laps around the deck doing 100 laps, 50 push-ups, 30 pull-ups, 50 sit-ups with weights attached to their bodies.

But these weren't normal weights oh no, they were Youkai induced weights that looked normal weights on the outside but, truly they each had enough enough weight to shatter a human's body into nothing but, dust. For example, on their arm's their weights were both 5 ton's for both arms. On their legs was 10 ton's for both legs, with the one more weight on their waist it acting as a belt which it weighed to around 15 tons.

Together added with their total added weight that was 90 tons equaling to 90,000 pounds...

Good thing Naruto had self-restraining and strengthened sea's on the ship or those two would have fallen through long ago...

So...you can say by the end of their first day of training both Kushina and Mikoto were flat out on the deck cursing the laughing Akemi calling her the 'Slave Driver of Makai'

It only got worse for the two when Akemi said she would be increasing the weights by the beginning of each week...

This continued on for a few day's until the tenth day of their voyage appeared but, by then during their training the girls have noticed something. That being was Naruto, he was acting himself yes it was just that he looked to be struggling with something like he was in some sort of pain similar to Mikoto's only worse. They first suspected this when Mikoto caught him coughing uncontrollably in his room when the door was slightly open. Then another sign was him becoming more pale each passing day making him look more deathly ill. Yet another sign that he was sweating more and more even during the strange cold day they had he still looked to be burning up.

When asked if he was okay he just waved it off that he was fine...

But Akemi knew otherwise for she was sensing something from naruto and it was no sickness...

It was something else entirely...

She didn't know what it was but it truly scared her, Her! The Kitsune Queen and Leader of the Bijuu! She didn't know what it was but she knew it was Powerful but also...

Old...it was so Old...

What she was feeling from naruto was some Ancient power that she couldn't even begin to describe honestly when she first felt it; it as like she was suddenly tossed into a giant hurricane with her being in the eye of it. Pure power is what she felt, it made her feel like a newborn kiting that was just brought into existence, this power dwarfed her own tremendously and made even the juubi's own pale in comparison...

Whatever this thing was that was affecting Naruto though...it was killing him...that...she could tell just by looking at him...

It finally got the point where it got all of their attention...

It was on the thirteenth day of their voyage...

The day that changed everything for one Uzumaki D. Naruto...

Flashback

Standing on the deck of their caravel was one Uzumaki D. Naruto, only he looking more pale then usual deathly pale actually. His eyes bloodshot from what none could say as sweat poured from him like a river. Even through this he looked unfazed as he watched the girls train in their new powers; it was a sight to see really and he couldn't help but, feel proud of them and grateful to Akemi for training them.

Though he had to scowl mentally when he felt the state he was in, he didn't know what it was but, lately he could feel himself getting weaker and weaker. Yet he could still feel something more happening but he just couldn't figure it out. As far as he's known he hasn't been sick not once because of his abnormal healing that was on par with Kyuubi's own.

So then...what was happening to him?

Bu-bump!

Grasping the wooden railing, Naruto let loose a grunt as he felt it coming once more; it happened everyday randomly a spasm of pain from his heart. Tightening his grip, Naruto fell to his first knee he couldn't see horrified expression's from the women or their screams for him, screaming out his name in worry. All he could do grip the place where his heart was before he gasped yet again,

Bu-bump...Bu-bump!

(Cough) (Cough)

''Ugh!'' he grunted as he couldn't catch it in time as his blood flew out of his mouth in a painful hiss. He didn't know what was going on but, now this agonizing pain just got worse; he didn't know but, it was like he'd just been stabbed in the heart with a drenched poisoned dagger. He gripped the rail so tight it cracked before exploding in nothing but, splinter's. Naruto couldn't feel anything any longer he realized he was losing his senses: His sight, smell, hearing Everything...

He didn't even feel the three women racing up to him nor see their terrified expression's all he could feel was the immense pain in his heart. The coppery taste of his blood on his tongue as his limbs trembled and shook; he couldn't see it but, he was slowly coming a thought that made his very soul scream in denial...

'A-am...am...I dieing?'

The very thought made him want to scream and roar in denial! He couldn't die now, he had Kushina again, they were just starting their lifes together no...no he absolutely refused to die! Not with some damned sickness!

'I won't...I won't die...I won't die by this pathetic disease!'

Bu-bump...Bu-bump...bu-bump...

'No...I refuse...No...I...won't die...I won't die dammit!'

Bu-bump...Bu-bump!

''Gah!'' he let a hoarse gasp as blood once more flew from his mouth only this time with his eyes now opened half-way did he see the blood not hit the wooden floor but it splatter against the horrified face of Kushina. He would have smiled and told it was okay, he would have wiped her shedding tears away if he could move his hand, he would have kissed her to show he was okay...

Yet he couldn't for all he could do was fall to his other knee and without abling to grasp anything did he start to fall forward. He idly noted is eyes closing despite his inner struggle to keep them open for he knew if he closed them, he knew...if his eyes closed...

They may never open again...

He didn't feel the impact of him falling to the deck nor could he feel the blood pooling from his mouth now un-restrained like it's been for day's. He could hear his heart start to slow down and feel himself getting colder and colder each second. All he could do was shift his gaze toward the three women and it pained him to see their horrified face's their terror filled eyes made him want to relief them of their fear; show them he wasn't gonna die. Yet he couldn't even do that...

He felt so weak...

So Helpless...

So Defenseless...

Was this how his father felt before...when he was surrounded...?

Seeing Kushina's violet orbs now letting tears fall from her eyes did gather up every ounce of what strength and sheer willpower did he have left did Naruto raise his hand which gained her attention which she immediately grasped his hand and pulled it her to face where it was cupping her tear streaked cheek. Naruto could only gaze into her eyes as the darkness started to overcome his vision; he could see Akemi doing everything she could to heal him using whatever youkai healing technique she knew as was Mikoto but, he honestly thought it was to no prevail...

It probably was...

''Naruto-kun...g-get up...your okay...c-come on...'' she uttered, he could see her mouth moving yet heard not a word showing his hearing gone as well. He just smiled which was all he could really do; the blood leaking from his mouth gathering up in his smile. This smile worried Kushina very much so for she couldn't wave off the feeling of dread building up in her stomach.

Her eyes widened in horror when his eyes slowly started to close which she desperately tried to keep him awake, ''Naruto-kun! Keep your eyes open! Dammit! Stay awake!'' she yelled practically doing everything she could. Yet it proved to no avail for he just couldn't stop his eyes from dropping no matter how much he struggled.

'Dammit...is this how I'm gonna die? By a damned disease? Dammit...I refuse...to die...I fucking refuse to do so! I won't...I...I...I WON'T DIE HERE!'

'And you won't...young one...'

Naruto mentally only had time to quirk a mental eyebrow before he completely lost consciousness further worrying the three women. He never felt himself being carried by Akemi and into his room for all he saw were the flash of Kushina's eyes before all he saw was darkness...

Then nothing...

Naruto's Mindscape

Darkness...

That's all he could see, All he could feel was himself floating touching nothing solid and floating on nothing but air. Slowly opening his eyes, did Naruto see himself standing on practically nothing which really didn't surprise him since he had a small idea of where he was. He looked around himself to see nothing but, the darkness of an empty void that which felt could suck up any and all living things.

As he silently gazed at the surrounding area he never saw a dark portal appearing behind him with it walking out a figure as tall as he was maybe a few inches or so...

''Welcome...child...'' hearing this somewhat distorted yet baritone voice did Naruto quickly spin around his stance tense and guarded. Only for his eyes to widen partially when he saw the man in front of him. His mere presence honestly shook him to his very core yet he did sense something about this person that made him feel a wave of familiarity...

For he was staring at a man that stood the same height as himself or maybe a few inches taller and he seemed to have some of the same armor as himself but not all the same. He had a very built stature that he could tell very easily but, other then that everything else about the man was strange. For he was mostly covered in armor from his giant legs and feet with them covered in leather boots with metal grieves that seemed to work like his own only these were strapped to the man's legs.

Around his waist was some sort of belt that had two protrusion's of bronze metal one extending upward to his chest and the other downwards. In this belt was red leather strap's with two of them dangling from his waist; on his chest was from what he could tell a tight black shirt of some sort that showed his massive muscled chest. Next up was the man's arms the right one to his surprise has the same pauldron as his own it being silver in color and same demonic design and below it on his forearms and hand was a strangely designed gauntlet with metal clawed fingers.

On his left arm though is what really got him for his part of his arm was covered by the crimson slightly burned red cowl while below this showed something that truly made Naruto wonder who this man was. For it was a gauntlet of such size he wondered if it was made by demons themselves. For it was a gauntlet that had unique designs that looked to alien to naruto to be human plus the crimson glow coming from the designs only strengthened his suspicions. These designs went straight toward a skull of some sort which glowed yellow as its eye sockets glowed blood red.

Finally ending with the man's appearance was the strangely design bronze pauldron on his left shoulder that seemed to look like sort of a bat's wing. Under this connecting with the crimson burned cowl was the rest of it covering the man's upper-chest, collarbone, his mid-back and head completely shadowing what was seen of his hair. That in itself being strange for his hair was a complete white with a light bluish tint. His skin tone from what he could see was tanned very much so borderline bronze and from what naruto could see was some kind of mark on the man's forehead with it glowing with crimson lines that reminded him a runes; lastly was the man's eyes.

They froze him on the spot for they just radiated so much Power, Wisdomyet Control that is made Naruto wonder if this man was some kind of Deity. His eyes were utterly and complete Azure it was like staring into twin pools of the deepest ocean. Oddly he felt these eyes were similar to his own when he was younger...

Naruto couldn't help but feel like he's known this person from somewhere yet he doesn't...

Does he?

The man seemed to notice his questioning yet curious eyes and spoke with a voice so filled with both Divine yet Demonic power that it sent a chill up his spine but, their wasn't ill intent toward him at all only something akin to Curiosity mixed with something akin to Pride?

''Young one...I'm sure you have many question's and I will answer them...but first we have much to talk about...which includes yourself and the situation your in...and with it involves myself...and...your Birth-Mother...'' Naruto's eyes almost popped out of his head when he heard this but, stayed silent as the man continued,

''First off let me introduce myself, I am The Second Horseman of the Four Horseman with me being the youngest...My name is...War...and we Uzumaki D. Naruto...have much...to discuss...'' Naruto just glared back at him wondering how he knew his name,

''Very well then...talk...''

With that the man now revealed War spoke...

Real World

''I-is he gonna be okay Akemi-nee-chan?'' said a teary eyed Kushina as she and Mikoto were kneeling at the bedside as Akemi sat by Naruto her hands glowing a greenish hue with a red tint. They had seen naruto start coughing when he first seen gripping the railing and only got more worried when feel to his knee. That's when they rushed to see him only to see his state getting worse and worse; they tried to get his attention yet he didn't respond making their fears for his very life was on the line.

That was when Akemi quickly picked up his body and shot toward his room with them following to help quell down what his pain was. Which was why at the moment Naruto was laying on his bed with sheets covering him a wet folded towel to cool his scorching fever. They were surprised to see blood though when he coughed every so often especially when he had fallen to the deck it honestly scared them. Of course they had their suspicions but, now seeing it real they could see naruto was truly in serious life-threatening pain...

The questions though piled up in their minds as to what this disease was, what was it doing to Naruto, how did he get in the first place...

But the most important question was...

Why didn't he tell them what was wrong with him?

Sighing Akemi stopped her ministrational healing before speaking with a small frown, ''I'm...honestly not sure Kushina-chan...at first Naruto's heart was fine this morning but now...its just plain chaotic its unnatural-beats is whats worrying me. At one point his heart beats so fast I'm afraid its gonna shoot out of his chest and the other is when he just stops beating utterly and completely. I don't know what's wrong with him all I know is that's affecting him and making his blood slowly fill up in his lungs. It's been from hat I can see been happening frequently and fore awhile now; I can also sense something else in him is affecting his body in general causing his eyes to have been so bloodshot they looked ready to bleed out tears and his abnormal fever...'' she explained a worried frown on her face as she gazed back down on the man she had come even closer to loving.

Kushina could only nod her head before looking back at Naruto's body seeing his chest raising up and down irregularly scared her as well as the pained expression on her face. Looking toward Mikoto she saw the woman almost ready to bawl her eyes out yet she held her tears back not wanting to show weakness before any of them. She felt the same way but, was used to see Naruto in these situation. That didn't mean she wasn't worried far from it actually. Because she was feeling absolutely broken without him here; she couldn't honestly even begin to imagine her life without him here...

It was a terrifying thought that she had immediately crushed...

She knew Naruto and he wouldn't die so easily; for he was just tough to kill, He's slaughtered armies, faced and beaten Kage's that could level a village and, he being the only man on this planet that she knew that has faced and beaten a bijuu with only his strength alone...

He won't die and he certainly won't be killed by some pathetic little disease...

'I know he'll come out of this...I know he will...' was her thoughts on the one she loved that is before she pulled Mikoto into a hug seeing the woman took it quickly and pressed her face into her shoulder. She rubbed Mikoto's back trying to soothe her while she herself was still trying to hold back the tears in her eyes. Despite knowing he would come out okay in the end...

It was still so heart-wrenching to see him in such pain...

Akemi though like Kushina knew Naruto was gonna be okay yet she was more concerned about the energy energy within Naruto. His chakra was now by no means chakra at all for it was shifting and morphing in a way. She didn't know what it was but, knew one thing that his chakra was now changing completely from human chakra's and to a more demonic feel to it...

Though what was even stranger was his chakra was also giving off feels of Divine as well so that confused her even more.. But what was really worrying her was that his energy was growing rapidly beyond what a human body could hold she was guessing that was what is wrong with him but, she couldn't be completely sure. All she could tell was that his energy was rapidly increasing...

What was scary though...was that his energy...was already surpassed her's by far...

'What's happening to you...Naru-kun?'

Well all three of them are about to find out...

Because unknown to them all was that Naruto's body was giving off a crimson black streaked outline...

Naruto's Mindscape

''I see, so your telling me your a being called the Nephilim with it being an old race that's existed before angels or demons. Them being called the Old One's, yet after a cataclysmic war only four of you remained them being called The Four Horsemen, them being named Fury, Strife, Death and finally you War. Which you four served this organization called the Charred Council as your original goal is to protect all of Man-kind before the council made you all only come into protect them when these Seven Seal's broke thus the War of the Apocalypse would begin when all seven broke. And you told me later on you were tricked by the council to arrive right before the seventh seal was broken thus shattering the iron clad rule and you stripped of your powers? Afterwards you fought a one man war through both demons and angels finding out the council had framed you. So after you defeated this Abbadon and took the seventh seal before shattering it you waged war with the council with your siblings. This war brought upon the End-war ravaging the planet and all its inhabitants; that is after you and the other horsemen won you left for the White City known as Heaven their you had a council with the higher-ups of heaven asking for a meeting with this Maker the ultimate entity that created everything known to man-kind, demon and angel wise. You asked him to recreate the planet and have it begin anew with a more stable mindset after this...you and the rest of your siblings lived a life of solitude as the mediators between Heaven and Hell...is that correct?''Naruto said as he floated before War his eyes staring into the twin pools of liquid sapphire. The man gave a nod of confirmation with a a faraway look in his eyes,

''Yes...every word of it is the complete truth...'' to which Naruto could see the man was telling the truth for even if the man's eyes were impassive as ever each word was filled with the utmost honesty that he couldn't help but, believe him. But...

''I see...but what does this have to do with you, me or my current situation...or for that matter how does this involve my...my...mother?'' he said utterly confused. War anticipated this to where he just spoke to naruto once more only this time something akin to sadness in his tone.

''Ah yes, well let me start from the beginning for you do remember the woman named Uriel correct?'' which Naruto nodded, he remebered how War explained of the woman; her being the Champion of Heaven and it's Commander of the Angel forces. He idly noted during his explanation of her that war seemed to drift off a bit in his words...

''Yes I remember her but, what does she have to do with anything?'' which War just let out what seemed to be a sigh but sounded more like a grunt.

''Well she is the whole reason for you see during my time in solitude I met Uriel once more and that was when she had requested a duel against me again only this time not out of petty vengeance or spite but, out of wanting to see who was stronger. She was strong; stronger then any other I've ever fought especially with how she grew stronger and stronger through the war our battle shook our very realm and scared my other siblings even my older brother Death saw the fight as both entertaining yet chaotic but, I ended up defeating her. I expected her to be angry with me but, to my surprise she was...satisfied you could say and ever since then we grew closer and closer to the point we fell in love...We had to keep our relationship a secret though for it was forbidden for a angel to love a nephilim and doing so with out secret relationship did Uriel end up bringing forth our first...and last child...'' when Naruto heard the last he could hear both the sadness and anger clear in War's tone as the man's fists clenched tightly.

''You see the child was a newborn baby boy and we loved him and cared for him deeply to the point we couldn't bear being separated for almost a day. Though no matter how good things went...it all ended up crashing down, for a spy from heaven found out about us and told the Higher-ups in heaven and soon word spread to all of heaven and then my siblings found out. Though unlike my siblings which had protected us from the forces of heaven did Uriel and myself see no other choice when we saw the full might of heaven come crashing down on us...we did the only thing we could do...and that was to send our child to earth knowing heaven hadn't know of his existence. We didn't have time to even name our child before we and Uriel went to join my siblings in the battle against heaven and this is where in the end we all caused an Apocalypse in heaven thus destroying all of us. We all died to which the maker replaced us with new God's and protectors; but not even he the Maker himself didn't know me and uriel's child was still alive...'' he further explained making Naruto's eyes widen already piecing together what War was telling him.

''Everyone from the past except for myself passed on for I lived on as a soul to live in my son to where he had descendants and I passed onto them and so on and so forth but, due to my overwhelming power that was within that body it started to harm them inwardly for my power; their heritage was leaking and just a drop of my blood entering their system would either tear a normal human to pieces or give them fast acting disease that attacks the heart. I see your piecing this together, that's good...'' he said seeing the suspecting expression come over Naruto's face.

''And...how...does this involve...my mother?...I don't even know her or my father...how did she survive the disease?'' to which War gained an expression filled with the utmost sadness yet a hint of sadness as well.

''That's easy, because for every descendant we had they had at least one child before they succumbed to the disease. Though out of every single descendant...your mother was the one person that reminded me so much of Uriel it was shocking. I can't tell you her name for even I myself don't know because the only thing I remember of her is the day she gave birth to you...You see she had the disease since she was born but, even that didn't stop her for she fought through it unintentionally or not her sheer willpower kept her from dieing. On the day of your birth though from what I can remember she had kept you in her womb since she was on the run from what I remember her calling them marines either way she had given birth to you in the Elemental Nation's. I can tell you this though even when she was dieing she loved you dearly like any mother would have even when she was dieing she had the strength to embrace your small form and give you your name before passing on...truly...your mother was one of a kind...'' he explained to the wide eyed Naruto.

He couldn't believe what he was hearing yet it was all true every single word, War's words were filled with the honest to kami damned truth. No matter how much he wanted to deny it he couldn't but, when he heard about his mother he couldn't help but, feel a sense of pride of what she did for him during the time he was in her womb. Though when he heard about these Marines chasing her down. Where was his birth-father? Why wasn't he protecting her? So many un-answered questions rolled into his mind yet the one thing he did know was that he would get his answers from these Marines and their will be no denying that!

''I see...then...that would mean...'' getting a nod from the man before he to Naruto's shock smiled on his once stoney face; this smile though just radiated pride and it was all aimed on him. For reason's unknown naruto felt like he was being smiled at by his father Ryu once more...

''Yes...you are the next descendant and I gotta say you've truly taken up my mantle as a warrior of War. From what I could see in your memories you would the epitome of chaos, carnage, blood, war everywhere you followed...it was such a sigh to see...Then again...you did it all for that woman...Kushina...she oddly reminds me of both Uriel and your mother...'' he muttered to which Naruto just quirked an eyebrow before War shook himself out of his thoughts.

''Either way, I would suspect your wondering why were talking like this since you think your 'dead' well let me explain unlike everyone else you Naruto were born with some demonic power in you which was from your father from what I can assume. Anyway due to this, the disease was blocked off for a good few year's of your life until it reached the point where you are the age you are now but, due to the age you are now it's only strengthened the disease father then ever before where it's become an instant lethal poison. I can only say you inherited your mother's willpower to survive for how long you have. Even now your still alive just in a comatose state with those three women doing everything they can to keep you alive.'' Naruto just gained a small smile when he heard this as the faces of Kushina, Akemi and Mikoto flashed in his eyes.

That's when he still remebered the situation he was in making him scowl, ''Then, what was the use of telling this to me? What was the use of you explaining everything to me if I'm still gonna die?'' to which War just let out a amused chuckle before he walked toward naruto making him raise an eyebrow in curiosity.

''Easy...since your the first one to survive when the disease has evolved to such a degree and you living giving me enough time to awaken now gives me the chance to finally awaken to the blood so you could live. For you see, the only way you will live is when I release your mothers and by extension my and uriel's blood will it completely and forever flush out the disease forever not even your offspring will gain this disease. Though this will also change you from being a human into what I am or was that being a Nephilim thus forever changing you.'' Naruto knowing this after piecing everything together nodded.

''I see, but would that mean I lose my other abilities?'' this made War shake his head in negative before he outstretched his hand and to Naruto's surprise did Chaoseater appear in a pillar of blue black-streaked flames. He watched as War expertly swung the blade in the air before stabbing it into the non-existent ground making white cracks appear to his confusion.

''No you won't lose any of those abilities only that your chakra has now changed and strengthened beyond all measure of what anyone could ever guess. You being the first person of a hybrid between a Nephilim and Angel your energy is your own and no name can be called in history of it. Also since the blood is gonna be awakened I'll be passing off my memories of how to use the powers given to you but, don't think for a second your invincible you will still need to train and perfect these powers...'' Naruto nodded at this knowing nothing ever comes free without a price that he knew.

''Yes I know...but if I do this...what will happen to me exactly?'' to which War closed his eyes in thought before speaking,

''Truthfully I have no idea since this has never happened before but, I would say some of my and Uriel's appearance would come into you; your personality though is your own only in appearance will you change. Other then that I can say your overall skill's and abilities would sky rocket beyond measure. For instant your strength right now can topple a bijuu of both a eight-tail and the ninth-tail but, if you do this your strength will be even beyond that of a titan making your abilities to shift the very earth which I got to say is very impressive will enable you to topple even a Nation if you truly tried to do so. Your speed will considerably increase to the point you'll be able to move faster then the speed of light itself seeing as the only thing that's gonna be taken away is your enormous height making you stand at the height your at now; your muscles will be compacted yet still have the strength and speed you always had. Your 6 senses will also increase as well as your reflexes to where you can dodge an attack at point blank. Also I'm gonna be passing off one enhancement of mine that goes along with Chaoseater you'll see why alter on though.'' hearing this Naruto nodded seeing War was coming to a close with his explanation. Honestly though he just wanted to hurry and return back to the living world and reassure the girl's he was okay...

''Lastly is that...you cannot die by Human/Demon or Angel wise for even myself don't know the true extent of your durability but, I can say that if I can take the injuries I've been dealt with as did Uriel and yourself before this...then I'd say you literally can't die...or it would just take a lot to do so.'' this made naruto nodded while on the outside he showed no real emotion while on the inside he was a bit happy that he would live as long as the girls were.

War seeing the area around them shift showed they didn't have much time, ''Naruto, hurry make your choice either grasp the handle of Chaoseater and you shall awaken the blood or don;t and die here and now it's your choice but, time is running short...your body is dieing...'' hearing this Naruto didn't even hesitate for when he just grasped the handle did he see War give a chuckle before speaking,

''I see you made your decision...then be ready for a world of pain...'' that's all naruto heard before his vision was blinded by a flash of white and an unimaginable searing pain slam into his body like tsunami of Magma...

As Naruto disappeared War slowly closed his eyes as the light hit himself as well making his body slowly fade away into nothing but, blue particles of light...

'Finally...I can go home...I can see you again...brothers and sisters...and I can see you once more...Uriel-chan...' with that War's body completely disappeared forever showing the last horseman disappeared leaving a legacy of himself and his Love to roam the earth...

Oh the Chaos...

Real World

''Akemi-chan are you sure there's nothing more...we can do?'' Mikoto asked to which Akemi just shook her head sadly. It's already been an hour since naruto was put to bed and since then his irregular heartbeat only got worse with each passing minute while the energy that had built up in him had already-to Akemi's inner shock-surpassed the Legendary Juubi's own by leaps and bounds making it look pathetic in comparison!

Since then though Naruto's body began to spasm uncontrollably as blood started to leak from his mouth, nose, ears and even eyes. That was when his body just...

Stopped, utterly and completely...

That was 5 minutes ago...

''No...there's nothing more I can do... N-naru-kun...h-he's...d-d'' she didn't get to finish though for suddenly out of know...

''AAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!'' Was the painful scream ripping from Naruto's mouth spinning around did the three girls see to their utter shock naruto gripping the sheets practically tearing them his eyes scrunched up shut with his mouth open letting loose a painful scream. His eyes practically now glowing sapphire unlike his usual golden eyes. But the one thing that got their attention was the aura coming off him; for it was not only white in color it was outlined in Gold but streaked with Crimson and Black as the aura itself just outlined naruto's body like a blanket of Fire.It spread across him as his scream only got louder and louder only the fires didn't show a hint of burning him.

They hurriedly rushed toward him only for the flames to lash out at the floor infront of them making them stop before it hit them. They saw it retract back into the blanket of fire; they could only stare as the flames covered Naruto's lower body and upper chest. Through it all Akemi was staring at Naruto and the flames covering him with wide eyes,

'What the hell...I saw him die...but this energy...its the same energy I felt coming from naru-kun earlier only this time...its more...concentrated more...Powerful...what is going on here...' that's when she and the other two saw the flames slowly cover up to Naruto's neck. They could only watch lest they get hit by the flames as he let loose one more scream that shook their very ship as the flames completely covered his face...

''AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH!'' his voice suddenly went silent as the flame blanketed over his face and hair. Son enough the flaming aura completely surrounded and encased naruto in its fiery blazing aura of energy and power. The flames strangely enough not burning the sheets or wood; watching this the three girls could only stare.

''U-umm...Akemi-chan...w-what...is going on?'' Mikoto said, her eyes stuck on the form of where her Captain and precious person was laying. Kushina just nodded trying to think on what was happening to her love, Akemi just looked at them both before letting a small sigh before glancing back at the flames.

''Honestly girls...I have no idea what's going on anymore...all I know...is that Naruto is alive but, inside those flames...something about him is changing...I can feel it...'' the way she said it made both Kushina and Mikoto audibly gulp before they looked back into the humanoid blanketed flames that held within their love/love interest. They truly hoped he was okay for they would have jumped in and tried to get him out but, they had a feeling those flames would do a lot more then just burn them...

They all didn't need to wait long though...

Bu-bump Bu-bump!

The sudden beat of a heart somehow sounded the area making the three girls snap their attention toward Naruto's laying figure the beating getting louder and faster with each passing second. It only got louder when to their shock did the humanoid blanketed fire move showing he was sitting up without making a sound. They watched in bated breath as the man in the cloak of fire stood up as the blanket of fire hid any and all that showed it was Naruto underneath that aura of sheer power.

Seeing the person coming closer to them did they freeze in place when the blanket of fire started to their surprise unravel around the person in a spinning vortex slowly showing the person underneath. As it did so did Akemi suddenly feel herself getting even more uneasy then ever before. The godly Power coming from this figure was shaking her to her very core. Not even the Juubi could match up to this...Power.

She and the other two watched in rapt attention, as the fiery aura unraveled from the person's feet and on upward. Showing Naruto's armored feet then legs and waist only this time wearing some kind of belt. On up it showed the bare muscled chest of Naruto only his skin tone now a bit more tan then usual and his sickly pale wiped clean. Going up, the flames showed his arms showing their armored gauntlets and pauldron's with them being pure silver in color instead of the usual black. On up was shockingly a pure crimson hooded cowl that draped over Naruto's chest and back and his shoulder's with the hood completely over his head. That's when as the flames fully unraveled did it show Naruto's shadowed face.

His face set in his usual stone firm expression with his mouth set in a impassive state with only his eyes gaining their attention.

And what eyes they were for just those few second's they were staring into two twin pools of liquid azure that seemed to just glow with an inner power that sent chills up their backs but, even more so made their face practically burn as their cheeks just flushed a good shade of crimson. They could only gape even more when Naruto removed the cowl over his head to show his normal spiky long golden black streaked hair only this time the ends of his hair having white ends; and lastly the same ruined crimson mark on his forehead going downward over his eyes thus making him look even more unique...

In their opinion...

It vanished though for soon they vanished returning to Naruto's normal golden orb's them now holding an amused look at the girls expressions. He slowly spread out his arms even if he was regretting what he was gonna do,

''Well you girls just gonna stand their and stare at me? Or you gon-'' he never got the chance to finish before he was tackled by three blurs two of them crimson the other a raven colored blur. He idly noted himself flying back with three pair of arms wrapped around his torso and the three female figures pressed against him.

''NARUTO-KUN!'' was the worried shout of the three girls as the our slammed into his bed with them on top of him as his bed sinked further by their combined weight. He looked at them not caring of position they were in and mentally hit himself when he saw their concerned and fearful expressions; even more so when he saw their tear-streaked cheeks.

Letting loose a small smile he spoke, ''I'm sorry...I worried you girls...I'll explain everything...you all deserve to know...'' with that he surprised them all especially Akemi and Mikoto when he wrapped his arms around them all before pulling them closer to him making them freeze before seeing his caring golden eyes did they just snuggle into him awaiting for his explanation.

Seeing this he opened his mouth and begun his explanation...

Flashback End

And so he did, he explained to them all of what was wrong with him, his heritage and his meeting with War; he further explained what was causing him to sick in the first place. Suffice to say the girls were shocked immensely; to hear of all that Naruto went through was just crazy. When they head about his heritage concerning War well lets just say Kushina and Mikoto were placed in a shocked state while Akemi just passed out due to the immense shock. To think a descendant of that man still lived and that being Naruto was just too much for even her.

Though for the rest of the day the girls never left Naruto's side for they just stuck to him like glue; apparently he could see this had worried them all more then they showed so he didn't say anything about their actions and just went to sleep that day with the girls hugging onto him forever wanting to know he was still there.

He couldn't deny though he had a very good sleep that night...

But on the next day things changed not with the girls or Naruto but of something else and that was during the girls routine training along with Naruto's own. He needed to get used to his slightly changed body and power's he had gained from his ancestor War.

It was during this time...

They could finally see an island nearby...

With Naruto and the Crew

Standing on the deck looking out at the closing in island was a man that stood a good 6'5 with a figure that could be described as both a ripped figure if the extremely ripped chest and 10-pack was anything to go by. That didn't mean his muscles were overly huge though for they were compacted giving him the appearance of a leathe figure; this shows his body is built for both speed and strength. His skin tone was that of a tan tone almost bronze especially in the sunlight; his face was both well proportioned and masculine not a hint of baby fat anywhere. He wore black leather boot's with silver metal grieves strapped to them.

Following up his legs were black cargo pants with silver medal plates strapped to the sides of his legs. Around his waist was a belt that had a strange buckle of some sort which it split in in two direction's. One sheet of golden metal shot straight up from the buckle covering part of the man's chest. As the other piece of metal was more of a protective plate going downward. In the middle of this buckle was red leather straps that were strapped firmly around the man's waist with two of them hanging loosely from the buckle.

He had no shirt which showed his ripped chest and steel hard 10-pack, the only article of clothing seen on his chest was a crimson cowl of sort that's covered the man's upper chest, and both his shoulders while the hood of the cowl completely covered his head hiding his hair from view and shadowing his face almost completely. Lastly over his shoulders were metal spaulders with the right one being silver in color and it having the design of a demon's snarling face within; while the other was more of a giant bat's wing only this spaulder being pure black in color.

On both his forearms were silver gauntlet's that had demonic design's etched within as the metal plated gloves showed the clawed fingers that seemed like that of a monster's claw. His fists were at ease but, his whole body was tense and ready for the slightest attack. On the man's shoulder was a giant blade that looked to be unworldly in design with it being as tall as the man himself maybe a few inches smaller, it being the famed Chaoseater. Finally though was the man's soul piercing golden eyes that which seemed to glow from under the shadows of his hood.

This man was Uzumaki D. Naruto and right now him and the girls were on course to this island that which they could see was populated so that means they could finally get information on where they are and get some supplies.

''Oi! Naru-kun! We'll be reaching the island in a few more minutes'' said a voice from above him, looking up did he see the Kitsune bijuu Akemi who was wearing her same battle ready kimono as before when he first met her. He gave a small smile before nodding in acceptance,

''Good we shall deplore anchor when we reach port keep a lookout for any other ship's Akemi-chan'' she gave a mock salute with a grin before going back to her job. That's what she mainly did on the ship was be the lookout since she had the greatest sight of them all. That didn't mean she didn't have toe hr talents far from it; because he had seen first-hand of her amazing healing talents thus he had appointed her as the Doctor of the crew.

''You know Naruto-kun I don't know why but, when I see you looking out at the sea...it's like you were born to be out here, 'ttebane'' said a loving melodic voice from behind him, looking over his shoulder did he see the smiling Kushina walking up to his side. She wearing something akin to a more close combat clothing yet it still showed her perfect hourglass figure.

She wore black shinobi sandal's with tight fitting black cargo pants like himself only they hugged her figure like a second skin as did her crimson tank-top that acted like a second skin as it showed her well developed DD-cup bust. Over her shoulder's was a long-sleeved crimson trench coat with the uzumaki swirl embedded on the back of the coat. Lastly was her original katana from the one she used as a child back the Uzumaki clan that Naruto had given to her early on strapped her to hip. Her lovely maroon red bangs were held back on the left side of her face by a yellow hairpin showing her heart-shaped face.

She had her Kitsune tails and ears hidden since they were about to go into a populated area and it was best they didn't draw to much attention to themselves...

Then again Naruto himself was a beacon of attention especially with how he looks...

Sighing he spoke, ''Mah, you may be right...for some reason just being out here...on the open sea...truly feels like home...I don't know why though...'' Kushina just giggled as she stood at his side watching the island now visible town coming in the distance.

''Hmmm who knows...'' she mumbled as she shifted her gaze onto him; she couldn't help but gaze at his new appearance even if it was overly changed it was still a sight to see. He looked like a man that crawled out of Hell itself with the armor he adorned. It was still hard to believe the Naruto she's known for so long was now a being that belonged to a race far older then angels or demons and is the descendant of a man that shook the world to its very core...

'Though I'm just glad he's the same Naruto as before...only a bit more...affectionate...'

That brought a smile to her face for it was true, naruto was more protective of her and the other two and more affectionate then he ever was. She wondered why he was but, didn't question it for she honestly liked it especially with how much held all of them as he told what happened to him. She loved every second of it and she could tell Akemi and Mikoto did as well if their blushes were anything to go by...

''Where's Mikoto-chan?'' he asked to which she just looked at him before pointing behind her,

''She's in their finishing the last of the coordinates for this location for the future just incase. Other then that she wants to make a map of this location as well...'' Naruto just gave a nod of acceptance with a small smile that is before he turned his attention back to the closing in island. He could see them already getting to the dock but, when he saw the amount of ships at the dock he was honestly surprised him.

Though when he saw one ship in particular having the sail's imprinted with the name 'Marine' did he narrow his eyes.

'Well...this will be interesting...'

How right he was...

Loguetown-Docks

Upon coming to the dock's and tying the ship down did Naruto and the girls embark off the ship and into what they could see a town of some sort. Only from what they could already see things being sold and bought were completely different from what they've seen in the Elemental Nation's; food, weapons, clothes everything was so much different. The people though weren't all that different though maybe a few people smaller or taller then others.

Though as they walked through the people did they gain much attention mainly Naruto himself, his overwhelming figure and the pure aura he exuded made many back up in fright because of his intimidating stature. Truly it was annoying but, they didn't say anything and kept going even if some were staring at weapon upon naruto's back with both interest from traders and blacksmiths and fear from the civilians.

As they kept walking though they never did see a shadow blur from an alley and too late to react did this blur run head long into Naruto...

CRASH!

''Owwww...'' said a voice of a teen that looked to be in his early twenties, he was on the ground rubbing his head from the sudden impact. He wore black boots with what appeared to be white pant's that covered the over top of his boots, on up was the man's red sash, the last thing seen on him was a red long sleeved jacket that was open showing his naked chest, much like naruto himself he had no shirt showing his developing chest and abs. His black somewhat spiky hair was clearly seen but, the somewhat eye catcher was the straw-hat on his head with a red ribbon tied around the base of it.

Naruto who was still standing from the crash looked down at the guy before offering his hand to him, ''You okay?'' to which the man froze before looking up showing his black eyes to Naruto and his unnaturally big smile. The man grasped his hand firmly before pulling himself up where he was standing a good 6'3 just a few inches from Naruto himself.

''Yo sorry about didn't see I was going shishishi'' he said with a laugh that made Naruto quirk an eyebrow in amusement. That is before another man came up from behind the straw-hat wearing man before he outright just smashed his fist on the man's head.

''Dammit Roger must you always go running into everybody?'' said a man did the group of four note being in his early 30's. He being a man that had straight long pulled back brown hair with strands of gray could be seen. He wore a strangely designed shirt and dark green pants that ended just above his ankles where he wore black boots.

Rubbing the back of his head sheepishly the man named 'Roger' nodded,''Yeah sorry about that was in a rush'' he said with a grin that stretched his face unnaturally so. The girls blinked blankly as Naruto just smirked at the man seeing he was quite the amusing person but, inwardly he could feel something about him was familiar...

''Please do excuse him he can be an idiot at times...anyway my names Silvers Rayleigh nice to meet you,'' the older man said while roger just grinned and pulled out his hand and spoke,

''Yeah and my names Gol D. Roger!'' hearing his name did Naruto's eyes widen so much the girls thought they would have popped out of their sockets...

That was the fated day did Naruto and the girls meet Roger and Rayleigh...

End

WOOO! Chapter done, long one not as long as the Black moon chap but, yeah long XD Anyways that chapter is done and I bet a lot of you got question's well I'll answer them best I can.

Also like I said I don't know Roger's age when he met Rayleigh but, I'm taking a guess he was in his earl twenties while rayleigh was in his early 30's so yeah...

As for Naruto's appearance yes he's just like War in appearance just a few changes. Hope that cleared up SOME of the confusion...now stop asking questions xD

Also for the future you guys I want you all to know RIGHT NOW That I will be writing up future stories for One Piece since I'm in the mood for One Piece :P

Anyways that's all I gotta say...

Bye-bye!

TDKN-is out!
