Naruto's Chat Group

Chapter 52 - Equivalent Exchange 2

"Issei, what happened to you?" Gonzui asked as he entered the dojo and met the man by coincidence

"I fought ten guys with weapons yesterday and they got me with some hits." Naruto replied with a smile as he looked at the large man

"Well done and next time ask your seniors for help to take care of the street sc.u.m. I have great expectations of you so take care of your body. It might even be long before you reach the red belt." Gonzui said as he placed a hand on his head

"Thank you teacher, I want to ask if I could have a spar with Shogo as we promised each other yesterday." Naruto asked for permission or they would have to fight outside the dojo and it might go out of hand

Gonzui looked at him; he could see that his foot was hurt and his shoulder as well.

'I am here to keep things in control so it's fine.'

"You have my permission but take care of your body." Gonzui replied and patted his head before leaving, he was going to watch this battle and see where Naruto stood in terms of combat

Naruto was happy that he had a friend in his teacher unlike Kakashi this man showed interest in him and gave him advice.

In just three days this scary looking man had made a better impression than anyone in Konoha after the Ichiraku's and Iruka.

'This world is a lot friendlier than my own.' Naruto thought as he joined the other students as they went through the motions

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

Once Naruto had done the day's practice and his body was heated up, he walked towards the ring as Shogo had come for him.

Today he practiced less and learned to compensate for weakness in his body and damage done that was restrictive to his movements.

Unlike Gonzui, Shogo couldn't tell that Naruto was injured enough to affect his movement as he was moving like normal.

"I hope you had a good night sleep."

"I did and I have a very good dream. I want to talk to you about it once we are done with the spar." Naruto smiled and replied, he was getting excited at the at the thought of his own gang

The image was so empowering that his body felt giddy and ready to rumble.

"Meh, I will lend in you an ear if the spar is up to standard." Shogo replied as he took his place

"You already know it so why the act." Naruto said as he looked at the others and the teachers

The standard greetings and rules, no serious moves and illegal attacks were recited as Naruto was having his first spar.

Once the begin was announced, Naruto moved instantly and pushed with his right foot. His left fist extended and Shogo stepped into take advantage as he saw it but was hit by the simultaneous low kick to his leg.

Naruto hit Shogo with the low kick but Shogo still followed with a flawed straight punch that Naruto blocked with his own punch to the arm causing the boy a lot of pain.

"Too close, separate"

Both boys separated but everyone could see that Shogo had been at a disadvantage from the start.

"Don't go easy on me. I like this fight and don't mind getting beaten." Shogo muttered as he rubbed his arm it stung a lot

Naruto nodded and went in seriously, his body was hurting but he managed to defeat the challenger.

Gonzui was impressed by the battle and could see that Naruto was a lot better than any other fighter in the dojo; the physique limited his potential at the moment.

'No hesitation before any action and the smooth movement makes him a great fighter. He must have fought through some dangerous encounters and practiced his form a lot more than just the dojo.' Gonzui analyzed and found the boy was beyond what he could handle

'He will soon surpass me in combat skill and the only thing that might last, would be the physical strength. ' Gonzui found that sad and as an encouragement to improve his powers

"Man that was embarrassing. I thought I could do better." Shogo said as he leaned on the wall and stood beside Naruto

"You will get better just need more practice."

"No need to butter me up and speak."

"I was thinking of making my own group and I want you in." Naruto said truthfully

Shogo was not expecting that and paused for a moment, "And why should I join?"

"We are friends and it will be fun. We can fight without worry and even get to challenge higher ups that might not give us the time of the day without power behind us." Naruto answered with a smile

Shogo was sold with those words, he wanted to fight and letting him fight without any restrictions was his dream right now.

"We will spar daily to improve our strength and skills." Naruto said as he saw him smile

"Deal" Shogo said as he took Naruto's hand

"I won't be left behind so don't get comfy."

"My dream requires more power than you can imagine so let us see if you can keep up." Naruto replied as he went to spar with the others

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

On his way back as expected, Naruto was ambushed by Loki once again and this time they were ready for him.

Naruto looked at the twenty guys and the weapons; he bolted without a thought and took out his pouch filled with pebbles.

He was a ninja not an honorable fighter and with that he threw them expertly at his pursuers. Naruto didn't go towards the crowd on purpose as he was enjoying the experience and wanted to talk.

His accuracy was scary to his targets as they got hit in the head and c.h.e.s.t with small stones. One by one they fell before they started to become smart and hid.

As they entered a crowded place the guys walked normally and so did Naruto, once they left the public eye they were running again.

Naruto found the experience fun and laughed as he played along and finally after some time he took them down.

"Man that was fun, don't you think so?" Naruto muttered as he looked at Loki whom he had tied with rope that he brought along in his bag

Loki's face was bruised along with the rest of his body but he still stared at Naruto with a confident look.

He was a 14 year old teen with Karate training and technical knowhow. Loki liked to fight and be in control, it brought him joy.

"I will get you next time. You have nothing else to use against us."

"You can't really beat me no matter how hard you try so how about working with me. We can have many strong fighters work with us and control this area, slowly we can have it all. How does that sound?"

"Are you trying to trick me?"

"No, I think you have a good head on your shoulder and some cool gadgets so how about working together since I plan to become the strongest in this region."

Loki was surprised at his words and looked at him carefully. In the start Naruto was just a nuisance that needed to be dealt with but after battling him, Loki found how strong the foe was and impressed.

This battle showed more of his prowess and personality, 'He is strong but not stupid. He would use any moves to win and is improving very fast from what I gathered. That confidence in his voice and eyes really is something.'

"Okay, I agree but you better not be playing with me and show something as proof within a week." Loki replied as he looked up into his eyes

"Great, in two days we attack another group and take over. Get me a list and we will plan it out." Naruto said with a smile and small amount of bloodl.u.s.t that was developing from killing Issei

Loki felt his body shiver as he saw that look and smiled, "My name is Kyoichi Takame, just give me your number and I will send you the details."

"I don't trust you enough for that, let's meet here tomorrow at this time and I will bring along a friend. Call me Naruto Uzumaki." Naruto replied and let him free before walking away

Loki didn't mind and felt much better about Naruto as he was not trusting him so openly and showed wisdom not just strength.

"I hope this investment is good."

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

Two months passed by and Naruto had grown in experience and power. He had achieved black belt in Karate and had mastered many different grappling moves along with Taekwondo moves that he mashed into his fighting style.

Naruto had picked up knife and staff training as well since he couldn't just fight without weapons all the time. He had surpassed everyone in the dojo and his gang had spread like wildfire.

The Akatsuki spread like a plague, beating every small gang without mercy and Naruto found skilled fighters among the trash.

Ikki Takeda a tall teen with dark skin and blue hair, he was year older than Naruto and was doing boxing as his career choice. Naruto had saved him from a beating by some guys so he joined to pay him back and enjoyed sparring with him.

Kaname Kugatachi a girl that was two years older and trained in the use of jujutsu, she was leading a gang as test of her skills and trained the other girls. She went by the name Freya in the hood.

Freya was a fairly tall and very attractive dark-skinned woman with blue-eyes and short messy brown hair. She is also has curvy eyebrows and a thin scar running across her left cheek. She is slender but noticeably curvaceous and athletic in frame with broad shoulders and flare h.i.p.s. She also sports a well-endowed c.h.e.s.t with a fairly muscled and well-toned built. Usually, she is seen in a form-fitting light-blue sleeveless-shirt and dark blue spandex pants with an orange leather jacket with which she hides the pieces of her staff in the jacket sleeves and a golden eye-like pendant around her neck.

Unlike the original Akatsuki, Naruto lacked that many skilled fighters and the top was consisted of just five people while the rest were just subordinates.

Naruto and his four chosen fighters led teams according to their own style and had made quite a name on the streets.

School had opened and Naruto had easily integrated into the normal life with the help of Kenichi whom had still not joined the group but had picked up martial arts along with Honoka as they copied Naruto.

Kenichi had grown confident and strong as he interacted with Akatsuki whom considered him the fifth captain under Naruto's rule.

Naruto had grown taller and stronger; Gonzui was proud and thought it was time to challenge his nightmare.

"Issei we will be going dojo hunting today."

Naruto stopped punching the bag and looked at Gonzui with surprise, "Okay"

"Good, let's go now." Gonzui couldn't wait anymore and with Naruto beside his side they drove towards their target

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

Gonzui parked the car and walked forward as Naruto followed him silently, the environment looked real serious.

They finally arrived near a large gate and Naruto read the sign board, 'Ryozanpaku.'

"Issei this place is known as the pinnacle of martial arts, it is a place where masters gather so let us take their name and become the pinnacle." Gonzui muttered as he pushed open the gate

Naruto observed the place carefully, it was filled with an ancient vibe and the building was just old school.

They were greeted by a girl and she asked them for a fee for challenging the dojo. Naruto observed the girl and could tell she was strong and skilled.

'Definitely not normal.'

Soon Naruto saw the hulking man that Gonzui wanted to fight, Sakaki Shio known as the 100th Dan Street brawler.

The man radiated power from just his mere presence; he looked at them with casual look while drinking sake from the bottle.

'Master will lose easily and even I can't defeat him.' Naruto concluded as he looked at the man and just as expected Gonzui was defeated by a single punch

"My name is Issei Hyoudou and I wish to test myself so please go easy on me" Naruto muttered as he stood in front of Sakaki

Sakaki was a tall and largely-muscled tan-skinned man. He has short eggplant-colored hair with a longer strand hanging over his face. Since his late-teen years, he has had a long scar that runs horizontally across the bridge of his nose.

"Hmm, interesting. You got guts boy, let's see if you got skill." Sakaki didn't attack and gave him a chance

"Thank you" Naruto muttered as he took a stance and couldn't see any successful path, all the attacks he thought seemed to be failing inside his head

'Just do it!'

Naruto moved forward looking like he was going for a punch or a high kick but dropped at the last minute and did low spin kick.

His foot connected with Sakaki's leg and before it could force it to move, he was punched from above.

Naruto stared at the fist that stopped in front of his face without any ounce of worry and stood up, "Thank you for your time."

Sakaki was impressed, he had scared away so many warriors with these fists but this boy didn't fear death and looked at him like it was nothing.

"Issei I have taught you everything that I can. It is time for you to move onto a higher level." Gonzui muttered as he stood nearby

Naruto was surprised at his words, he did plan to find some better teacher but that would be later. It was his connection to Gonzui stopping him as he found the tall guy very endearing.

"Please Master Sakaki accept this boy as your disciple, he has the talent and personality to be the best." Gonzui looked at Sakaki and requested with genuine emotions

Sakaki never thought he would be watching such a drama, he had never taken a disciple but this boy was definitely interesting.

Before he could answer, the others had also gathered to see what was taking so long.

Naruto was awed by the masters; there were so many strong old men here to choose from.

'With these guys, my taijutsu skill will go through the roof.'

"I am willing to give my all for this art, please accept me as a disciple for Ryozanpaku and if I do not show the right attitude then you can kick me out within a week." Naruto said as he looked at them with confidence and gusto

Their eyes landed on him, analyzing him from head to toe and they smiled like demons.

"Are you willing to do anything for this art?"Akisame questioned with curiosity

"Anything if it does not involve harming an innocent or killing." Naruto replied

"Why do you want to be strong?" Hayato Furinji, the master of the dojo asked

"To protect what is important to me."

"Do you think physical power is enough for that?" Akisame asked

"No but without it we can also lose so it is needed along with material strength."

"We accept you as our probationary disciple, one week is all you have to prove that you can survive this path." Hayato said as he looked at Naruto, the boy reminded him of his past where he fought people on purpose

"I will not disappoint. Let me see of Master and we can start, I still have my training time left." Naruto said with a smile as he walked towards Gonzui and walked with him

"Master thank you for this favor. I know why you did this and I am sorry I forced you into it."

"Silly child, it is the duty of the master to show you the path so I am happy that my student surpassed me and can be one of the best in the future."

"Master, I will be visiting you so don't slack off."

"Haha, I know. See you later." Gonzui slapped him on the back and drove off

Naruto entered into the dojo and he understood what demons were on this day, these monsters were not training him but were trying to kill him or cook him with their methods.

'I think I now understand what Issei is going through.' Naruto thought as he walked back home while dragging his tired body, he had called home so they won't worry and was at the dojo for five hours.

It was 8 pm as he was walking in the dark night with only the light from street lamps and windows. The training by Sakaki wasn't that much for him but Akisame and the Muay Thai master was really dangerous.

But even then he was smiling as he could tell he would improve drastically with these methods. As he was lost in thought, Naruto's eyes landed on a black cat as it was watching him curiously.

"You know that's an amateur level skill so why don't you cancel it out." Naruto muttered as he could tell that the cat was an intelligent creature, which meant someone was using transformation

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

Kuroka had been staying in this city for awhile because of the smell from a high ranking devil she had found by coincidence. While passing days chilling like a cat, she had come across Naruto and had found him to be amusing.

She had seen that he was a sacred gear holder but what kept it her intrigued was his skills and personality as he was shaping up to be someone really strong.

Once he entered Ryozanpaku, Kuroka was sure that her thought was right as these human monsters were the pinnacle of skill and if they fought anyone from the high rank devils to fallen they could easily beat them with equalized stats.

Many devils had tried to invite them but these masters had pride and didn't want to serve anyone plus lose their humanity.

Ryozanpaku masters minded their own business but did take missions to take down monsters and other evil creatures with their mastery of Ki; it wasn't hard job for them.

'He will probably become a hunter of an eccentric like the rest of them.' Kuroka thought and by mistake revealed herself to him, she didn't think he would find her as he didn't have any magic or Ki.

He shouldn't have knowledge on magic or Ki, 'Is he one of those otaku's talking to themselves?'

Kuroka tried to find a reasonable explanation to why Naruto would call her out as it didn't make sense.

"I am talking to you. Why are you observing me?" Naruto asked as he caught the cat and held it in his hands

'Okay, he is definitely on to me.'

"How did you know?"

"Your eyes and reactions gave you away. So what do you want?"

"Nothing just found you interesting or are you feeling shy now."

"Nah, just curious about you. What are you and how did you transform your body?"

"I am a demon cat and its magic. You don't have any mana so don't dream about it." Kuroka teased him as she climbed on to his head

"I wasn't interested just wondering how you use magic and all that. Are there more magical beings in this place?"

"What are you going to do about that?"

"Nothing, I thought it would be interesting meeting them."

Kuroka found Naruto strange and curious, his life should be normal but he was so abnormal and many otakus would be interested in meeting different specie but unlike them she was sure Naruto wouldn't be afraid or disgusted.

"If you entertain me enough, I might let you meet some." Kuroka said in a teasing tone as she patted his head with her paws

"I will try to match your standard, cat."

"Call me Kuro"

"That's not better than cat so I shall call you Cat."

"Hehe"

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

While Naruto was walking back home, his observer had been warned of his recent activity.

"The target has joined Ryozanpaku." Dohnaseek, a middle aged man with black hair commented as he sat down beside three young girls

"Do we just continue to watch?" Kalawarner, a tall buxom woman with brown eyes and long blue hair, asked as she looked at a girl with long black hair

"Why not cripple the maggot? He jumps around too much, making this chore even more troublesome." Mittelt, a small gothic Lolita, commented with a vicious smile as she sipped her smoothie

"We end him tomorrow, he has done something unforgivable by joining those sc.u.m." Raynare commanded as she felt that it was for the best of the Fallen, she had been given command to watch over him as he was acting strange and had been observing for two weeks already.

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

Naruto spent some time talking to Kuroka as they walked home and she disappeared before entered the house.

Once he got home, Naruto informed his parents that he had joined a new dojo and had dinner.

Naruto called up Kenichi and the others about it as well so they will be in the know.

After finishing up, he fell asleep without any resistance.

"Naruto, we need to talk."

Naruto heard the voice inside his head and woke up inside a soul land different from the sewers.

"What?"

"I am the dragon inside your sacred gear, Ddraig."

As the voice came to him, Naruto saw a large red dragon looking down at him.

"What are you doing here and what do we need to talk about?" Naruto asked with a cautious attitude

"I like that I can feel my body here but I am right now inside a gear that's part of your soul.

You can summon it now without a problem and it will boost your power.

And I wanted talk about was the fact that youkai, demons, devil's and fallen have been watching you.

Danger is approaching so run to the dojo and don't come out unless you have the stregth to fight " Ddraig warned

Naruto digested the warning, "Are you sure? Don't they have something else to do then kill a human."

"There are things in place but you can't be sure if they will follow the rules. It's the less risky way."

"I will think about it so how do I use this gear and does your presence power me up or not." Naruto asked as he sat down on the floor

"Heh, of course. I am the dragon of destruction and with my help you will surpass those weaklings easily."

"So want do I do partner?"

"Say sacred gear activate and then boost."

Naruto followed his words and saw a red gauntlet on his right hand.

"Boost" As Naruto said that word, he felt his power double

It was such an intense feeling and after ten seconds once again it doubled.

Naruto drunk on the power, "This is insane but it should have a limit."

"Good you didn't go crazy." Ddraig said as he wiped the imaginary sweat

Naruto decided to ignore those words and waited for the answer.

"Your body is the limit of the boost and if you try to go above it then you will explode from overdose."

Naruto nodded as it was an expected answer,"Can I use your flames or wings or will this thing cover me whole if I grow stronger?"

"We will see in the future just focus on what you have and if you focus the booster power then you can shoot it out as a ki blast."

"Awesome" Naruto exclaimed as he tried do it, replicating his attempt with the rasengan and shot a green energy bullet

"What is this powered by? What is it boosting?"

"Can't you feel it, your body has small amounts of energy building up and soon it should be visible but with boost it becomes visible."

Naruto thought about for a moment,'Could it be chakra or is it Ki?'

"Okay, thanks for the help partner. Want to talk about things to get to know each other."

Ddraig didn't reply and just wanted to walk away but realized it was the boy's soul land, there was no where to go.

"Okay just keep it interesting."

"I will go first and then you can also share a story." Naruto said with a wide smile as he leaned on Ddraig's side

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

The next morning it was Sunday and Naruto walked towards the dojo to get his training.

Cat hadn't returned but Naruto thought she was watching over him.

Before long Naruto was half way to his destination and was thinking up different strategies to incorporate the dragon theme.

"Naruto" Naruto stopped as he heard Ddraig and looked ahead

There was a woman with blue hair standing in front, wearing some office suit.

What got his attention was the fact that it was too quiet and she was holding a weapon.

"Excuse me, can I help you?" Naruto asked as he activated the gear

Kalawarner looked at Naruto from head to toe, he was weak and pitiful.

One move from her would kill him but since he was part of those accursed group, she wanted him to feel the pain.

"You have passed the limits of our patince human and used the power of the sacred gear."

"What sacred gear? What is this? Please don't hurt me, I don't want to die." Naruto walked closer and closer slowly as the gear boosted thrice

From her face, Naruto could see disdain and arrogance so his act was working and she was careless.

"Don't try to touch me with your filthy hands." She muttered as she was about to cut of his right arm while he was kneeling down in front of her

"Sucker punch" Naruto punched her in the abdomen and sent her flying into the street light

It hurt her internals, from her intenstunes to the liver as it was well placed attack.

Naruto fell to the floor and screamed, "F.u.c.k" as his shoulder was dislocated from the attack.

He utilized chakra enhancement on his arm but the body couldn't handle that much power up without covering all of it, and he didn't have enough for that act.

Naruto didn't dawdle and used enhancement from the next boost to run, his legs were boosted.

By the time he arrived, Naruto looked like he was going to die as his bones had fractured and there was minor internal bleeding.

"What happened to you?" Akisame had just come out to go for his clinic when he found Naruto outside the gate

"Fallen, they are trying to kill me." Naruto muttered with difficulty as he had run with speed that his body was not capable of

Akisame was surprised, they already knew he had a sacred gear but was it that important for him to be hunted

He looked around and it seems they had retreated quickly.

There were traces of a weak fallen on his hand and he smiled at the thought.

"Good work, you certainly are one of us." Akisame said with a smile as he picked him up and carried him to the clinic to fix him up asap

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

"How could you fail this simple task?" Raynare was not calm at the moment as she saw Kalawarner hurt and the target alive

Kalawarner looked down in shame as she had no excuse, "I was too confident and he took advantage of it. He can use Ki and attacked a weak spot."

"Oh, now this is interesting. Finally, We can have some fun and a sacred gear." Mittlet said as her eyes shined with spirit

Raynare looked at them both, "Eliminate him urgently, his power is increasing too fast and will be a danger to all of us."

The others quite once she made them realize the reality of the situation.

"He will be protected by the dojo. What should we do about that?" Dohnaseek asked

"They will not interfere until death comes to him so we can fight him normally for now to affect his mindset. Continuous defeat is bad for development and once an opportunity arises kill him." Kalawarner suggested

Raynare thought about it and sighed as this task was about to end but now it had been extended.

"If they protect him then we will follow this plan."

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

Naruto relaxed in the dojo as he was covered in bandages and drinking some terrible tasting medicine.

He watched the Masters fight and go through the motions.

"How do you feel now?" Hayato asked as he sat beside him

"A lot better"

"You did perfect for such an unexpected opponent. But I suggest you stay here for awhile before you can go back to the normal life."

"Thank you for the option, does that mean I am accepted."

"Yes, you show alot of talent and your personality isn't bad."

"Hehe, you are making blush. I will take a week off for practice but will go back after that."

The Masters looked at him as the word week passed through their heads.

"Try your best to survive then." Hayato replied with a smile as he went to train Miu

Naruto felt a chill pass through his body as he looked at those people.

'I will just close my eyes and it will go away.' Naruto closed his eyes but it didn't go away as Ma Kensei touched his shoulder

"Aahhh" Naruto screamed in fright as he was surrounded

"Don't be like that disciple, we only got a week left before a rematch."

"We can't allow defeat so you need to fight again."

"I will give you a weapon to carry for next time."

"I am injured."

"We got an elixir just for that." Akisame replied as he poured it inside his mouth

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

"Here always carry this." Jiraiya said as he passed him a box

Issei was looking his original body except a bit taller and buff as he used transformation Jutsu.

It worked for this situation since they didn't want people to find the vessel of the Kyuubi.

Issei looked at box, "C.o.n.d.o.ms?"

"I can't trust you to keep in check so this is for you. Never do it raw, no matter what. This body can i.m.p.r.e.g.n.a.t.e any woman with a single shot because of the intense yang energy." Jiraiya explained in a serious tone

Issei took on the words and nodded, it had been month and he was starting his journey finally.

He had only seen the forest of death for the whole month so he was a bit excited but having this in hand, made it even higher.

"Does that mean I have permission to bang?"

"Yes but no hired help." Jiraiya smiled

"Of course, I want girls to fall for me and then enjoy those soft bodies, especially b.o.o.b.s." Issei said in a calm manner, he had standard and shit

"Good, now don't let your power get to your head and always be careful." Jiraiya warned as he started speeding up so they would leave the territory of Konoha

Issei was wearing a red jacket with black pants, his headband was in his bag since he didn't want to give his allegiance.

He had been given a light armor and a spear along with chains to fight when necessary.

With the help of chakra he could control the chains like they were snakes to bind his foes.

In one month, Isse had surpassed the original Naruto in skill and power in this world.

In the dream world, Naruto was still kicking his a.s.s and Issei was learning new tricks from him as he was very creative in this field while Issei gave advice about love and s.e.x.

The pure boy that was Naruto had disappeared because of this pervert. Naruto had no knowledge about live and took in everything thing from his friend and partner, distorting his view.

Naruto was starting to believe in harem and it did go well with his dream of having a large family.

'Still a work in progress but soon my student shall go forth and bloom.'

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

The duo arrived at a village far off from Konoha as they had been running for 3 hours with small breaks to replenish chakra.

They had been running at mach 20 which was what Issei could accomplish at the moment without stumbling into things.

His Max was mach 30 becuase of his low chakra control and as it went up so did his speed.

According to his body and chakra levels, Issei should have already hit mach 300 but that required almost perfect control that he didn't have.

The duo relaxed in the public bath house while enjoying the view from the other side.

'Hmm, finally some good shit.' Isse thought as he looked at those soft bodies

'Unfortunately I can't go for normal girls anymore.' Issei sighed at the loss but cheered up at the thought of those s.e.xy moves that Jiraiya mentioned to him when he was feeling down

"Get ready tomorrow, you will do your first individual task."

"What?"

"Don't act surprised, you need to learn to be independent."

Issei lost his joy and appetite as he heard those words, he had always been shown the way and now he had to do a task alone so soon.

"You will search for the cause of low harvest in this region and solve it."

Issei gulped and got out of the water as he was not feeling alright.

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

Naruto had been in the dojo for two days now and his friends finally visited to check up on him.

Kenichi felt the pressure as he stood outside the gate, it looked like the dojo was for Giants.

'Man, this looks scary. I can see blood stains on the gate.' Kenichi gulped as Berserker tried to open the gate and needed help with it

Kenichi and Ikki helped to open the gate, and they were introduced to a old style dojo.

As they looked around, their eyes went towards Naruto.

They were relieved to see him but it seems he was brainwashed.

"PUNCH, KICK , THROW, WINNER."

The team was shocked to see him like this aanf Kenichi was the first to move towards.l him.

"Naruto snap out of it.

What have you done to him?" Kenichi questioned as he saw the a.d.u.l.ts and Miu, who attracted him a lot

"You must be his friends, welcome. Naruto is just relaxing at the moment." Akisame said as he was drinking green tea

"This is relaxing. I am not taking him back, his family will never allow this to happen." Kenichi declared and the members moved to his words as he took Naruto's hand and dragged him

"Color me surprised, the boy got some guts." Sakaki muttered as he looked at Kenichi run away with Naruto while the team followed

The Masters smiled at the event taking place, Do you think you can escape from us boy? Nobody leaves Ryozanpaku while staying normal."

Kenichi was feeling his hesrt pounding with fear but he still dragged this heavy body with him.

Naruto fortunately was a running along with him and they were close to he gate.

'We will be out soon.'

'No, no' Kenichi thought in horror as a ginat and a woman with a sword stood at the gate

Ikki and Shogi went for Appachai while Freya went for Shigure so that Kenichi could escape.

"Naruto, it's time for training." Akisame called out and Kenichi fell to the ground as Naruto stopped while holding his hand

"Naruto what are you doing?"

"Training to survive." Naruto replied with a smile and Kenichi understood this was a trap

"Why woukd you do this?" Kenichi asked as he tried to pry his hand open

"Because you are my friends and I love my friends alot so we should share the good things in life." Naruto replied as he placed his hand on Kenichi's shoulder

"Master, what do you think?" Naruto stood up and threw Kenichi at Sakaki

"We can train everyone as they have talent and good spirit. The boxer needs to go to another friend of ours since it will be better for him." Akisame said as he went towards the fighters

"What do you guys think of this gift? You will be stronger than ever with training from this dojo." Naruto said as he looked at the downed team

"Got no problem here." Shogo replied as his body was aching from a single punch

The others thought about it and saw the Masters, they were strong and skilled but there was the risk of losing your mind here.

Freya looked at Naruto and knew it will be hard to keep up with his increment and nodded as she looked at Shigure.

"Good so it's settled then let's start training. I have had enough rest." Naruto said with a large smile, now he had people to accompany him in pain

Friendship grew with trials, it proved whether it was circ.u.mstantial or real.

'These bonds will grow through team work and suffering.'

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

"Bloody damn, the human holed up in the dojo and hasn't stepped outside it for days now. Its making me crazy." Mittlet muttered with frustration as she punched the wall, breaking it

"Patience, the dojo doesn't allow that. They will send him out soon or he will come out by himself." Kalawarner said as she stood while looking at the gate

"We should plan an attack that should cripple him or damage him enough." Dohnaseek added

Raynare looked at the gate,"Prepare to attack his lower body once he gets out."

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

A week passed by since Naruto joined the dojo. In this week he learned many techniques that he repeated thousands of times while going through intense workout to stregthen his body all over.

He was introduced to Ki and taught how to utilize it a complete different manner.

Through training his chakra had developed enough that he could do a single enhancement without boost.

And with the help of the Masters he had learned Seikuken, an air space around his body.

It covered all around his body within an arm's length so that no attack would pass his senses.

It was a move taught by Hayato and was beaten into him as the Masters sparred with him.

Naruto had also improved his staff work with the help of Shigure and she had passsed him a spear to fight the fallen.

He was really awed by Shigure since she was the youngest in the group and felt something inside as he watched her move.

Naruto had fallen in love as Issei had called it and could keep his eyes away from that beautiful woman.

'I need to be strong enough before I confess.' Naruto decided that he will be stonger before he made the move but even before ethat he was buttering her up with food and interest.

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

Finally it was time for the battle, Naruto walked out of the dojo.

"Stop don't attack. I will fight you one on one and if you beat me then you can kill me. The Masters will not intervene." Naruto said as he stood outside the gate

Raynare looked at him and his confident face, it disgusted her.

"Kalawarner, go and finish him."

Kalawarner smiled for the first time as she flew down and landed near Naruto.

"It's been a week since that encounter. I will pay you back for that disgrace." Naruto muttered as he had actually run away, it was something he never did

Kalawarner looked at him and thought he was making fun of her," Those are my words and you will know death for this disgrace."

"Chill out woman, you looking ugly with that expression." Naruto replied with a grin as he took his stance with his spear

Kalawarner didn't wait this time for him to move and attacked with her spear of light.

The spear missed by b.a.r.e inches as Naruto stepped forward and thrust at her body with the spear.

The spear rotated fast as it almost hit her body as she blocked it with her spear.

Naruto didn't stop and spun around as he attack with the spear from the side.

Kalawarner blocked the attack with her arm, the attack stung but gave her the chance.

Another light spear at Naruto but once again it missed him as he kicked her face.

Naruto fell to the ground and followed Kalawarner, catching her legs and breaking ten with enhanced stregth.

"Aahhh" Kalawarner screamed in pain as Naruto continued with holding her in a while hold

"You are dead, you had no chance from the beginning. Next time, I will kill you.", Naruto whispered into her ears as he let her go and stood up while dusting his clothes

He was confident they can do nothing as his Seikukt was connected his soul and he was used to high speed in the other world so with his Seikuken his body would react to attacks that he didn't even register with normal senses.

It was a cheat and he was loving it, even the Masters felt shocked at his ability.

'It's good to be me.'

The fallen were shocked at the smooth defeat of their ally. It was just impossible, he wasn't even their level last week but now this happened.

"Impossible, this must be Kalawarner's fault." Mittelt muttered in a crazed tone as he landed on the battlefield

"I will crush you like a KitKat bar."

"You look so cute but ruin the appearance with that vulgar smile. It seems it needs reconstruction." Naruto replied with a smile as he got ready while the team was watching in awe as they saw a different species and magic

'I need to get stronger. I need to awaken my ki soon or I will be left behind.' it was a thought shared by his friends as they saw this battle and even Kenichi was subdued as he wished to get stronger to help his best friend

'We need to learn from this and burn the fire if youth.'

Mittelt smiled as she made shorter spears of light and made five of them at the small time while making a mace of light.

The spears fired from five circles and one volley followed by another as Mittelt flew into the sky for an opportunity moment to dive.

Naruto dodged the attacks with ease but made it look difficult and as he was in an awkward position, Mittelt fell like a meteor.

Naruto smiled as he pushed himself into position with the spear and kicked Mittelt in the shoulder while dodging the mace by an inch as it almost made him bleed.

The enhanced kick broke her collar bone and the little girl was on the ground screaming in pain.

"Next"

Raynare couldn't wait anymore and attacked along with Dohnaseek but as expected they lost without much difficulty.

They managed to make him bleed because of too many attacks but in the end it was his victory.

The fallen were on the ground in pain or passed out from it.

"What do you want to do with them?" Hayato asked as he stood in front of the fallen

Naruto looked at them and then to his team, "I want them to serve me."

Hayato smiled and looked at the fallen, "Pact of servitude"

Hayato struck each of the fallen on the heart with a small amount of Naruto's chakra.

"Now they can't go against you."

"Thank you Elder. Master Akisame can you fix then up." Naruto said as he picked up the girls like luggage

Akisame nodded and they walked to the clinic. Once the new members were put in medical care, Naruto was surrounded by his team.

"What is the situation? Was this the plan from the start?" Loki asked, he was bloody excited as his normal was sent flying and this new world had opened up

"We have the same goal from the start, take over the underworld and become the strongest group ever. No matter what comes in the way, it will bend or get broken." Naruto replied with confidence, his gauntlet increasing his charisma

"Will it get dangerous? Are there monsters that might attack people?" Kenichi asked

"Yes, there are monsters and we might end up hunting them down."

"My brain is trembling with excitement." Shogo held his head as he smiled like a maniac

"Let's party our first victory over the supernatural." Ikki said as he placed his arms around Naruto and Kenichi's shoulder

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

"You did better than expected. I am impressed." Kuroka said as she sat in his l.a.p as Naruto was sitting on top of the dojo building looking at the night sky

"Thanks so do I get something." Naruto teased as he patted his cat

"Oh, what do you want then?"

"I want to look at the real you."

"What if I am an ugly monster?"

"What if you are a beautiful woman?"

"Touché, so you are willing to risk your eyes on it."

"I will never look down on a friend." Naruto said honestly as held Kuroka to his eye level

"Cute" Kuroka muttered as she transformed into her humanoid body

Naruto was impressed and whistled in appreciation, "Beautiful and elegant."

"You got a sweet mouth on you." Kuroka laughed as she kissed him on the cheek and Naruto was blushing mess

Kuroka chuckled at that as she jumped away, "Why ruin the fun, Shigure?"

"Get away from my student."

"Aww, I am hurt. We will meet later then." Kuroka said as she disappeared from sight with her immense speed

"What were you doing?"

"Just watching the night sky."

"Don't let woman like her ruin you. Keep way from her."

"Then will you stay by my side then I won't need her."

Shigure didn't understand what Naruto was implying, "I will stay as much as possible. You are Shigure's student."

Naruto laughed at the answer and got up to hug Shigure. She didn't stop him and he really enjoyed the contact, it was a great gift.

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

As the battle had taken place, Serafall had watched it with Sona.

Sona was impressed more than ever and she had found the holder of a Longinus.

It was an irresistible opportunity that she asked Serafall to accompany her to meet Naruto so that no one will else will take him away as he seemed to be open to relations a bit too much.
