As time was reversed, the area was returned to what it was before Trigon's attack. Kara saw everything move back, her body repairing and heard his voice.

Kara didn't know why the power didn't affect her but assumed it might be because she had been drenched in his power for a long time.

Naruto had been not in a right state of mind so he had made a careless mistake and now Kara knew the truth.

Kara stood their blankly staring at the mall while Barbara sat in front of her; she was completely lost in her thoughts.

'Hima's father is the Guardian. She is the Phoenix and he is the Shadow.

They are not human and are very strong beings.

Do I call them dangerous or not? They imposed their own rules on this world but the people love them for it.

Hima loves her father and Barbara loves him to, how is this going to work out. Was she trying to fix herself or was she mocking her attempt?

The demon was too powerful and he said he will be back. What can I do?

I don't see any way for me to resist.

I need to talk with Clark, this is messing with my head and I don't know if I will see her again unless I go looking.

Should I go with Barbara to meet them?' Kara mused as the thoughts just kept coming in randomly; she was still feeling the panic and pain in her body as she had been awake as the world returned back

"Kara, earth to Kara. What happened to you?" Barbara waved her hand in front of Kara as she hadn't responded to her words

"Sorry, something came up. I need to go meet with my cousin and Hima said she was called back by her father." Kara replied as she stood up and left in a hurry, not giving Barbara a chance to react

Barbara just stared and sighed as she couldn't understand what just happened.

'Why would Hima inform you and not me?

What happened to her, she looked pale. It felt like the time I was panicking and losing hope.

Something must have happened, I should ask Bruce. But where did Hima go, did she really leave.' Barbara thought as she paid the bill and walked to the washroom as Hima had gone there only a minute ago

"Guess I will be leaving alone." Barbara muttered as she found no Hima, she walked towards a taxi while messaging Hima to ask what happened

'Hopefully it wasn't anything serious.'

-------------

In the infernal realm, Trigon was finally feeling happy. He had released his frustration and caused pain towards his nemesis.

The cost of this act was high but Trigon didn't mind as the humiliation given to him was much worse. Compromising with the Lords of Chaos and Lady Night was acceptable as they only wanted to see destruction he would bring and they demanded nothing in return for their assistance.

He had lost his sons and expanded a lot of energy with this act; much of the energy was not even utilized correctly as his vessels were too fragile.

'The Lord of Chaos isn't trustworthy and can be unstable while Lady Night is a dangerous being that can cause me trouble. I have to be careful about them and find a chance to kill them, to gain their powers. This isn't enough anymore.' Trigon thought as he realized he wasn't invincible since the day he had been denied access to other universes

"Now we shall see how he acts? The seeds of darkness have been planted; we shall see his world burn down in front of him." Trigon muttered with a smile as he could envision the scene of Hima being controlled by his power, causing destruction and harm to her own father

"Hahaha" Trigon laughed but it came to an abrupt halt as he felt the world shake and within moments it exploded along with the rest of the planets in the solar system

"I will make you pay sc.u.m; just wait for awhile and you won't exist anymore. Should have considered compromising with me?" Naruto's voice rang inside his head as Trigon saw his territory get destroyed by an unknown power which he couldn't feel

"HUMAN" Trigon roared in outrage at the insult, his eyes burning with fire of fury and he attacked the blasted cage but all was futile, which angered him more

"You will definitely suffer something special." Trigon breathed heavily as he cooled down and suppressed his anger, which was boiling inside and being used to think of ways to make Naruto's suffering even more horrendous

--------------------

Naruto stood with a stoic expression as trillions of lives were extinguished in his rage, it wasn't anything new. He was the cause of his own universes destruction, killing another personally wasn't much of a deal when it involved his little princess.

If he could at least bring some pain to the offender then he didn't mind being a monster. It was his sin and he didn't mind carrying it till the end. The souls of those lost and destroyed were always with him, they were his shadows and reminders of the ultimate sin.

"Death was much better than living under that sc.u.m." Naruto muttered to justify his choice to his shadows. He had already seen what kind of world it was and he couldn't save them so the best he could do was release them

"It was the best choice" Kurama said in support

"Yeah" Naruto replied with a smile as he watched over Hima sleeping near him. She was so pure and innocent. Her beauty stood out to him, reminding him of Hinata but unique in her own way.

Where Hinata was pure and elegant, Hima was cute and devilish. The other difference would be their personality and power.

She was bursting with energy as Naruto had fed her the chakra fruit of the stars; the energy was enormous and would bring her to a level where she would not have achieved within a thousand years.

"Naruto, you need to know something" Kurama spoke in a serious tone

"Shush, I will hear it from Hima or no one." Naruto stopped him as he didn't want to hear about what had happened while he was unaware

"I am sorry for not telling you beforehand. I assumed that it might hurt you or you would take it as a joke."

Naruto stared silently and just nodded, he didn't feel like talking. He was still feeling the emotional pain and the rage was still boiling inside his blood.

'I can't waste time anymore.' Naruto woke up from his stupor and called Hima to him, and stored her within his body. The ultimate safe house and he had considered many times just keeping her inside, which would be really ridiculous and oppressive so he had never done it but the situation now was making him reconsider.

Naruto left his dimension and traveled to his garden, and started the process once again to devour his harvest.

Nabu had left while leaving him the knowledge on the barriers as had seen Naruto's crazed eyes, which seemed to demand solutions and answers.

In the vast space, Naruto was eating in his full form. This scene would be horrific if humans came across it as they would assume, Naruto was a world eater like that from the Marvel comics or that subpar movie.

---------------------------

On earth, Diana arrived at the Uzumaki House and was welcomed inside. She saw Pamela playing with Mea, which surprised her but she didn't say a thing and followed Naruto.

"How can I help you?" Naruto asked with a clear and innocent expression, like hadn't just done a massacre on a global scale

Diana wasn't foreign to killing but even she would baulk at such a level of slaughter especially of beings that were too weak and could be easily subdued.

'Did he really kill them? Or does he not feel anything for the loss of life?'

"What happened today, why did you kill them?" Diana muttered slowly but with conviction, she was ready for action as she wasn't sure how this had turn out

"Trigon attacked and harmed my daughter so I took out my anger on some filth that had only survived because I didn't care.

Does that answer your query?" Naruto spoke in a nonchalant manner but Diana could see something was very wrong with him

"Is Trigon still a threat?"

"Yes, unfortunately I couldn't erase him yet."

'Yet, does he mean he will that powerful or he is already that powerful but Trigon escaped?'

"Why kill them all, you could have easily imprisoned them?" Diana continued to question, wanting to know what he actually felt as she stared into his eyes without looking away

"You are really being persistent, Diana. Why do you care, they were sc.u.m and should not be cared for. And for your question, I just felt like it so I erased them. I like it when things operate under my rules since I was a ruler in the past." Naruto answered with a smile as he held her chin and looked into her eyes, his powerful and emotionless gaze made her feel weak from the pressure that she ended up closing her eyes

"Hehe, how cute."

Diana didn't know to how to respond to such provocation, he was treating her like a child. She took a deep breath and put trust in Naruto's integrity.

"Would you please stop treating me like a child? I may not be your equal in power but that doesn't give a license to be an asshole. Finally, I want to know. Do you really feel nothing from killing that many?" Diana spoke up in a loud voice to give herself more spirit

"Haha didn't think you had that in you. Amusing, you amuse me Diana and my answer is that I feel nothing for those whom I kill. It is much better than feeling anything since if I felt bad than I might go crazy under the guilt or I felt good than I was definitely dangerous to the world and enjoyed killing. Remember this, I kill to enforce my law on the world and not because I enjoy it." Naruto chuckled at her tone and words, and replied in a serious tone

Diana took in what he said and felt a bit better since the answer did clarify something's. Naruto didn't like to kill but killed to enforce law. This was enough for now as she didn't think challenging his rule would be a good idea.

"Thank you for answering honestly and I want you to know that there are people that can be relied on, fighting alone might not be the best choice. This world is ours as well so try to bring us together." Diana relaxed into her seat and picked up the tea as she tried to convince him to rely on others.

"I know that, I did rely on someone. My buddy, Dr. Fate helped me with Trigon."

Diana just drank her tea as she contemplated meeting Fate for information.

"Father, are you done?" Cassandra asked

"Yes, I am coming now.

You can stay or leave when you want. Know that I consider you as a friend so don't test those limits." Naruto said as he stood up and left Diana

----------------------

"I am here." Raven spoke as she walked into his room as Mea had told her that Naruto wanted to talk with her

"Raven, I have decided to train you." Naruto spoke in a matter of fact tone

Raven was surprised as she hadn't expected such a thing and felt worried since her powers were unstable. But as she looked at Naruto and his unwavering and confident gaze, she felt her worries lessen.

"When do we start?"

"Now" Naruto replied as both of them were teleported. He had decided that it would be less risky if he could utilize Raven; she had enormous power waiting to be tapped. She had not utilized her potential and Naruto could see that she was a complete beast of magical power.
