[P] [A] [T] [R] [E] [O] [N] Naruto’s eyes fluttered open.
He immediately took in the abundance of nature around him.
Enormous trees formed the outline of a massive clearing.
In the distance, an active volcano could be seen erupting.
A plume of black smoke was rising from the active mouth of the natural disaster.
Above the stack of smoke, high up in the sky, were 8 planetoid object.
They weren’t big enough to be considered planets but they definitely weren’t meteors or anything like that.
Each of the planets had a set amount of moons rotating slowly around it, stretching from one moon all the way up to eight moons.
“How cliché of them.” Naruto thought to himself as he stood to his full height.
He allowed himself to stretch for several seconds even though it wasn’t entirely necessary considering he was currently in his own mindscape.
When he had first arrived in the new world, Naruto had been almost completely alone.
Lost with no idea where to go, most would’ve broken down and quit right then and there.
Fortunately for the blonde-haired shinobi, he had the tailed beast sealed within him.
The nine beast helped counsel him and guide him in his time of need.
Their experience, inside and outside their containers, had given the boy and the beasts plenty to talk about and occupy his mind with.
Their relationship had grown so much that Naruto allowed each of the beast to reign over a domain in his mindscape.
Each of the domains were represented by the planetoid-esque objects in the sky.
The number of moons rotating around the planetoids represented which tailed beast were located on it.
“It’s not cliché.
It’s just an expression of their egos.” A voice boomed out from behind the tree line.
Naruto turned his body and looked on as a section of trees along the tree line began to shake. Enjoying the story? Read on at g.com.
Slowly, a massive red paw came into view.
Following the paw was a leg covered in red fur.
The leg was connected to a slightly humanoid body.
Attached to the body was the head of a fox, adorned with massive rabbit ears.
The eyes held the pattern of the Rinnegan as the foxlike creature stared down at its container with a smirk on its face.
“Whole planets, though?
Is that really necessary?” Naruto asked the giant fox.
The beast let out a soft hum before slowly sitting down, leaning his head on his front haunches.
“My brothers and sister are thousands of years old and spent the majority of the past couple of centuries sealed away.
And in most cases, where their sealing took place was not exactly the most pleasant of places.
They only wish to have a place where they can stretch their legs and roam free.” Kurama stated while looking down at his container.
Naruto could only nod at the explanation as he was sure he would feel the same way if their positions were switched.
He went to took a seat on the forest ground but just before his butt could hit the ground, a chair rose from the ground to catch him and propel him upwards until he was eye level with the fox.
“When you put it like, I can understand.
Anyways, what have you found out about the energy and resurrection technique the girl used?” Naruto asked.
After seeing the red-haired girl bring back the boy from the dead, he had immediately wanted to capture and interrogate the girl for information about the technique.
Any ability that had the power to resurrect those from the dead, seemingly more powerful and rejuvenated than before, needed to not be in the wrong hands.
Of course he realized there was more to the girl than it seemed.
He just needed to figure out what that was without tipping her off.
That was why he had given Kurama full permission to delve into his memories of that night to analyze the chakra and technique in order to find out anything that could help to shed some light on the inner workings of the skill.
“The energy, if I had to compare it to something, is somewhat similar to the chakra created by the Zero-tailed beast. Find the original chapter at g.com.
It’s dark … not corrupted but dark.
The chess pieces seemed to be a catalyst for it all.
The energy produced by the girl set off the reaction within the chess pieces.
When I took a closer look, the pieces seemed to serve three purposes.
The first one was to revive the boy.
I hypothesize that the pieces contain some sort of very powerful healing technique that helps revive the dead and bring their body to perfect condition.
The second purpose is to fill the body with this dark chakra, basically converting the newly revived human to whatever the girl is.
Trust me, she is not human.
No normal human in this realm contains that much dark energy.
Anyways I’m getting off track.
The third purpose the piece serves is the most worrying to me honestly.
You see, the energy that fills the revived body carries similarities to the energy the girl sent through the pieces.
The energy is integrated through every single fiber of that boy.
The third step basically bounds the boy to the girl.
I don’t know how but I can sense a connection between the two and it definitely wasn’t there before he was revived.” Kurama finished as his tails swung lazily behind him.
Naruto had his head propped up against his hand as he went over the new information.
It honestly did not help to alleviate any of the worries he felt.
This teenage girl had the ability to revive the dead and bound them to herself while making them even stronger than before.
The strange energy that she possessed that had the ability to revive and strengthen the deceased was also just as worrying.
