Chapter 3: Chapter 3

-Konoha – Sakura POV-

Sakura wiped the sweat from her brow before she accepted a water bottle from Shizune to cool off after Tsunade's intense training session. Though she couldn't complain as she personally asked for it to be this intense when she first begged the Sanin to take her as an apprentice. Ever since Naruto's disappearance a bit over a year ago she has been training hard from the moment she heard about it.

'He wouldn't be so obsessed with getting stronger to the point of running off with God knows who if I didn't hold him to that stupid promise of getting Sasuke back' she thought, this being the most reoccurring thought that went through Sakura's head while she drove herself to get stronger.

"Sensei, have you heard anything from Jiraiya recently? Any news about Naruto?" Sakura asked as she had seen Jiraiya return to the village yesterday and was hoping for some good news.

"Sadly no but if there is you will be one of the first people I tell Sakura. I promise" Tsunade said, understanding how Sakura felt. She was just thankful instead of moping around the girl was driven to become stronger so she could help in whatever way possible.

"Always so worried about Naruto, does that mean you're finally returning the brat's feelings? I bet if he knew that he'd come running back" Tsunade teased, her and Shizune smirking while Sakura's face grew red.

"W-What?! N-No! I-I just want to make sure the idiot is safe and that he regrets making us worry!" Sakura stuttered out with a rather dark blush as Tsunade and Shizune chuckled softly.

"Well good luck with that but given either your feelings or your developments," Tsunade said, motioning towards Sakura's chest which was now at easily an E cup before the pinkette covered her breasts with her arms "I feel the brat would come running back" she finished with a smirk. "I never really knew that my full training would result in that in some people but hey, I don't think you mind and definitely don't think Naruto would as well" she said with a chuckle as Sakura grumbled and stopped her foot.

"Sheesh sensei sometimes you are as bad as Jiraiya" Sakura mumbled, making Tsunade roll her eyes as she waving her away to show she was free to go as she stared off into the distance.

'Wherever you are…I hope you are safe' Tsunade thought as she, and many others, just wanted Naruto to come home safe and sound.

-Kai's Planet-

Vados hummed in thought as she listened while Naruto finished his explanation of chakra and the shinobi arts. "That explains why none of the other Gods of Destruction could discern which one was the real you or sense you within the cloud of smoke. Seems chakra isn't something they can sense at all so the smoke entirely stopped them from sensing anything within it. Most peculiar" she said as all of this definitely made Naruto unique among his fellow gods.

"But it seems they reacted to my cloak mode and the Bijuudama though" he said before Cus nodded with a smile.

"If I had to guess it was because your cloak amplified your energy so much that it made it able to be sensed by them since it mixed with your Ki. As for the Bijuudama they reacted to it because it gave off an energy similar to Destruction energy and radiated a strong power of its own" Cus explained while Vados nodded in agreement.

"Chakra is quite versatile, is there anything else you can do with it?" Vados asked as she knew he could make clones and control elements with it but was curious of what else it could do.

"Well I can summon toads since I signed the contract for them…although I'm not sure if I can do it all the way out here since its more used to summon on planet. Plus I've never really had the need to summon the toads since they could tell Jiraiya where I am and everything" Naruto said with a grumble, not particularly wanting Jiraiya to learn where he was while Marcarita smiled.

"Well we can always return back to your planet, somewhere where no one is near to ensure you aren't noticed and before they do anything teleport away" Marcarita suggested as Vados shook her head.

"Actually I think here is best and in fact you might be able to if you enhance your chakra with your Ki. You did it momentarily during the fight against Champa and Rumsshi so why not try and see if you can replicate it" Vados said as Naruto frowned but, after a nod from Marcarita, shrugged his shoulders and decided to try.

He took a few deep breaths, rising his Ki as he did the same with his chakra. Mixing them was a bit tricky given how, unlike his Ki, his chakra had a set pathway which made him have to slip the Ki into so that they could mix. Through his training he had figured out how to and was able to if he had some time to focus but even with focus it was difficult to do.

Once certain the two energies were mixed he quickly ran through the hand seals before biting his thumb and swiping the blood across his palm. "Summoning jutsu!" he yelled, pouring extra chakra into before a cloud of smoke surrounded them.

"What? Where am I?" a familiar voice asked as Naruto blew away the smoke to see Gamakichi sitting in front of them, much larger than he last remembered.

"Whoa Gamakichi! You grew buddy, like a lot" Naruto said as the orange toad looked at him with widened eyes before grabbing him.

"Naruto!? Everyone has been worried sick about you! Where have you been?!" Gamakichi asked as he shook Naruto a bit before he looked around and his eyes widened a bit more and set him down after he took it all in. "Okay definitely not in Fire Country anymore" he said before Vados stepped forward to inspect him.

"Hmmm a sentient animal that hasn't evolved to gain, for the sake of this analogy, a human like form like most in the universe do in one way or another. How interesting" Vados said making Gamakichi look at her weird.

"Hey Boss, who's the pretty lady? Is she yours? What happened to you wanting to be with the pink haired girl?" Gamakichi asked making Naruto blush and Vados, as well as the others, giggle at.

"I am Vados, one of Naruto's three attendants as an Angel" she said as she motioned towards Cus and Marcarita who smiled at Gamakichi as well. "It is a pleasure to meet you" she added as Gamakichi nodded before turning to Naruto and shook his head.

"Pretty women aside you really need to come back! Jiraiya is looking everywhere for you and Tsunade and that pink haired girl you like are worried as well. She especially blames herself for you disappearing" he said making Naruto frown, clenching his fist before he shook his head with a determined look in his eyes.

"No! I only summoned you to see if I could from where I am and because you all can't reverse summon me from here. Jiraiya constantly ditched me for two of the three years I was supposed to be training with him for. He barely even taught me anything so when I got the chance to be taught by strong people like I have around me here I'm not about to go back home until I'm done with the six years I set for myself" Naruto said as Gamakichi frowned but as he looked around he noticed not only the angels but the Pride Troopers who had come to see what was going on but stayed silent.

"Whoa, got yourself a lot of people….hmmm" Gamakichi said before he hummed in thought. "Fine! But summon the Elders and tell them, they are the boss to even my pops. Hell they might decide to help you out with training to teach you Sage mode after hearing how Jiraiya messed up" he added making Naruto raise an eyebrow at.

"How do I summon them?" Naruto asked, curious of this Sage mode if the bosses of Gamabunta knew it and could teach it to him.

"Pour even more chakra into the summoning technique than for my pops, don't worry they aren't massive like him so you'll be safe. I'll tell them to expect you" Gamakichi said as he dispelled, causing Naruto to look to his angels after he sighed a bit.

"Well? Should I summon them?" Naruto asked, unsure of what to do given he only attempted to summon to show Vados the toads and to test if he could.

"I think it would be wise as it would also ease the worries of your friends back home if they have word from you" Toppo said, putting his two cents in as Marcarita nodded with a smile.

"If this Sage mode helps then I see no harm in you taking time to learn it depending on how long it would be" Marcarita said as Naruto nodded as he was interested in this Sage mode as well.

"Well, here goes nothing…though you might want to stand back in case I don't put enough and summon a toad the size of a mountain" Naruto said as the three angels nodded and floated over to the Pride Troopers before erecting a barrier around them all.

"Don't worry, I'll be helping as well" Kurama said as Naruto nodded and once again focused his Ki, choosing to put in his Godly Ki this time before once again going through the hand seals and slamming his hand on the ground again.

The smoke from it was much smaller than with Gamakichi so Naruto immediately knew something was up by that fact. Once the smoke dispersed he was a bit surprised as the two toad weren't anything like he expected.

They were both small, the first green with white bushy eyebrows, a bit of hair in the back spiked up and a goatee on his chin while the second was purple and lumpier with them both wearing black cloaks.

"Pa, where are we?" the purple one asked as the green one looked up at Naruto with a frown.

"It's okay Ma," the green one said, gently patting her shoulder before they both looked at him "are you Naruto?" he asked as Naruto nodded.

"Yeah and I think we have a lot to talk about I guess, how about we go inside and I make some tea" Naruto said before the two toads nodded and he looked over to Toppo and the other Pride Troopers that were nearby.

"Don't worry, take your time. We are going to go off and join the others on patrol" Toppo said before Khai nodded and walked over to them to transport them away safely.

"So where exactly are we? This doesn't look or feel like the Elemental Nations and those outside don't look human" the green one said once they followed Naruto inside, sitting down in two open chairs as Cus smiled as she set down the cups of tea for them all.

"You are on the planet of the Kai which is several lightyears away from your planet" Cus explained making the purple one widen its eyes before Marcarita nodded.

"And it is where Naruto has been doing his training for his new job as God of Destruction for Universe 11" she said making both of the toads look at her confused before Naruto sighed.

"U-Um how about I explain it from the start" Naruto said with a sigh as they were just as confused as he was when he first was thrown into all of this. As he explained it all, from him storming off into a forest to vent to killing Belmod and everything that followed the two toads seemed to become more understanding with the green one, Fukasaku, being upset at Jiraiya while the purple one, Shima, was upset that he had been ditched like that.

"Jiraiya boy will get a good beating from me when I get back as he didn't tell us how he neglected your training" Fukasaku said with a slight glare before sighing and turning back towards them. "But I do say this is all way too much to believe and yet, seeing everything, I can't do anything but believe your words" Fukasaku said as he took a sip of his tea before setting it back down.

"I'm glad you are growing out here but did you really have to?" Shima asked with a frown. "You have everyone in Konoha worried" she said while Naruto sighed.

"I didn't mean to, my letter was meant to make them not worry about me. Please can I have you two assure them I'm fine and safe while also keeping all of this hidden? I kind of want it to be a surprise for them" he asked as the two toads looked to each other before nodding with a sigh.

"Yes we will don't worry" Fukasaku said while stroking his beard. "Though Gamakichi told us you were interested in Sage mode, do you want to learn it? I can feel you are strong so you very well might be able to handle learning it rather quickly" the toad sage said as Naruto frowned a bit.

"What exactly is Sage mode?" Naruto asked as while it sounded interesting he didn't know anything about it.

"It's a technique that allows one to gain strength by balancing natural energy drawn in with ones chakra to tap into the natural forces of the world. It enhances one's strength, speed, reflexes and power of their moves. It is a difficult to master technique that very few have mastered, not even Jiraiya is a full master of it" Fukasaku said as that peaked Naruto's interest.

"Personally I want to learn anything I can to help make myself stronger. I have a whole universe to look after so please, if you think it can help then teach it to me so I can get strong enough to protect it" Naruto said as he looked the two toads in their eyes before Fukasaku started to chuckle.

"We can start right now if you want, you'd have to come back to Mount Myoboku though for it" Fukasaku said as Naruto frowned as Vados cleared her throat.

"There is no need to rush Naruto, you have your appointment with Heles as well as both Cus and I needing to get a grasp of your power before you decide to run off elsewhere" the taller angel said with a smile as she looked at the two toads. "When there is time we will bring Naruto back to learn that technique, if that is okay" Vados said as Fukasaku nodded.

"That is fine, we do need to deliver your message and wait for things to calm down as Jiraiya and others will undoubtedly hound us once we reveal we met with you" he said before he hopped down from his seat.

"For now focus on your other training. I still can't believe you wound up in this situation" Shima said with a chuckle while Fukasaku nodded.

"When you want to train just summon us and we'll tell you if the coast is clear or not for you to return. It was nice meeting you Naruto as well as you three" Fukasaku said, looking to the three angels as Naruto nodded.

"Oh wait! Before you go can you maybe deliver a message to Sakura for me? Jiraiya and Tsunade will know who she is so you'll know who to deliver it to. I really want to make sure she doesn't worry too much. Just give me a second to write it out" Naruto asked the Elders, looking to Marcarita who summoned a pen, paper, and envelope for him to use before Fukasaku nodded with a smirk as he waited for Naruto to finish and the teen hand him the finished letter.

"Of course Naruto, I'll pass your letter onto your girl" Fukasaku said with a wink and a chuckle before he and Shima disappeared and Naruto found himself able to let out a long sigh of relief the second they were gone.

"That went better than I expected. Thought for a second they'd try to drag me back or something and that would've just been a big headache. I do hope they will be able to get people to stop worrying too much" Naruto said with a chuckle while Marcarita nodded and Vados stepped forward with Cus beside her.

"Well Naruto, shall we gauge your skill?" Vados asked with a smile.

"We'll be sticking to just regular hand to hand fighting and Ki. Chakra's influence will be gauged later" Cus added as Naruto nodded and stood up.

"I'm ready, I'm excited to have two new teachers like you both so lets get started right away" Naruto said as he followed them outside with a smile. "So will this be a one on one so you can get a feel of me one at a time or what?" he asked as the two angels looked to each other before turning back to him and smiled at him.

"No, you will have to fight us both as best as you can with no chakra" Vados said before she summoned her staff to her hand.

"And remember, like Marcarita, we are stronger than we look so do not hold back" Cus said as she too called her staff to her hand, both her and Vados smiling all too sweetly at him before he quickly leapt back to avoid a twin thrust from the two angel's staffs.

"Damn, you can barely handle one angel but now you have to handle two at the same time!? I'll help as much as I can to tell you where to guard but it all depends on if you can react fast enough" Kurama said as Naruto nodded while he skidded back to slow himself down.

"Nice reflexes but don't be only dodging" Cus said before Naruto's hands started to glow blue as he weaved through various strikes from the angels.

"Don't worry I won't" Naruto said as he quickly ducked under another staff strike and held out his hand towards Vados and fired a wide spread blast of Ki from his open hand.

"Behind you!" Kurama warned before Naruto pointed his hand behind him and fired another widespread blast which was enough to get the angels to back off to give him a second to breathe before he blasted downwards to create a dust cloud around him.

'Thank you Kurama' Naruto thought as he quickly coated his hands in Ki slapping away a few green blasts sent through the dust. He started to struggle with the increase of speed of the blasts and the fact they were now coming from all around. He continued to deflect them as best as he could, the countless ones he couldn't deflect hitting him with a hard sting.

"Stop blocking and attack kid! We are sitting ducks like this" Kurama said as Naruto nodded and flew in one direction out of the dust cloud only to be face to face with Vados who was seemingly waiting for him.

He barely had enough time to block a palm thrust from her before he ducked under another strike and pointed his hand towards her. Vados rose an eyebrow as she saw the familiar spiraling orb of energy only instead of chakra she could feel it was made of Ki.

"Oh? Seems like you have learned to copy your Rasengan with Ki but it is unwise to rely heavily on something like that" she said as he smirked as the ball of Ki glowed.

"It's different from normal Rasengan as I can fire it!" he said as it fired from his palm as he leapt back to get some distance. Though it didn't connect with Vados as she was able to rather elegantly dodge it before it exploded behind her, letting her and Cus see how upon hitting something it had grown into a dome blast of swirling energy.

"I'm impressed, Ki control like that is rare and difficult to achieve" Vados said as she smiled at him. "Though I guess chakra prepared you for it. Let's see how many of those you can form before you get overwhelmed" Vados added before she looked to Cus and nodded, both of them raising their staffs before countless green orbs of Ki appeared above them in the sky.

Naruto paled a bit before the two angels swung down their staffs, sending the orbs raining down on him. He knew dodging would be near impossible due to the sheer number of all the attacks since if he tried he'd easily become overwhelmed so he settled on blasting away any that came down at him.

His brows were furrowed as he worked to fired Rasengan Ki blast after Ki blast at the orbs that threatened to crash down at him. Thankfully the expanding explosion on collision effect of his blasts was turning out to be great at taking out multiple of Vados' and Cus' blasts with only one of his needed.

Though as the blasts continued to rain down, the number being nigh infinite to him from the lack of shrinking of the number left in the sky, he found them growing closer and closer to him before he was able to blast them. The shrinking amount of time he had to form his Rasengan styled Ki blasts wasn't good and before long he was forced to just fire regular to avoid being directly hit.

Even those weren't enough as without the amount of blasts his Rasengan blasts took out he quickly found himself overwhelmed and as forced to fly backwards to avoid the endless onslaught.

"Well done, you were able to hold off against that much longer than expected" Cus said as she appeared behind him, aiming a kick at his head that he brought his arms up to block barely in time before he was sent flying to the side.

"I have to say if you learn to form those like second nature without any real time needed then they will come in handy a lot" Vados said while she watched Naruto pull himself out from the trench that Cus' kick had caused him to form when he crashed into the ground.

"Thanks I'm working on that" Naruto said before he watched them raise their staffs up into the air again into the air. Only instead of countless orbs of Ki a singular utterly massive one started to form above them.

"That is good but we now wish to test your power" Vados said as she pointed up at the orb and moved her finger down towards him, causing the massive orb to start descending towards him.

"Use whatever attack you have to try and push that back, your goal is to make it falter or else we will not stop it and it will hurt" Cus added as she did the same, making the orb descend a bit faster, all with a sweet smile on her face.

"That doesn't look or feel good so put everything into this" Kurama said, getting Naruto to nod as he put the base of his hands together, his hands forming a 'C' while a large ball of Ki started to form in it.

'Got it! Lets see how the move I've been working on fares against it' Naruto thought as the orb started to spin and whirl around in Naruto's hand while it started to shrink and condense.

The angels watched, curious to see what Naruto had planned as the amount of Ki he was condensing into the orb grew and grew until it couldn't be condensed any longer and started to grow to be a bit bigger than a normal Rasengan but smaller than an Odama Rasengan.

"I'll show you everything I have!" Naruto yelled as he pointed the orb in his hand up at the orb that was descending on him. "Ra…sen…Ha!" Naruto yelled as he continued to charge it up before he fired. The resulting beam that shot out of his hands did so with enough the force to cause a strong burst of air and the ground under him to crack while it quickly collided with the orb in the sky.

Vados and Cus watched as the beam slowed down their orb until it was at a standstill but could see Naruto was struggling with pushing it back. They though were quick to notice the entire beam was started to spin like a drill as Naruto furrowed his brow.

"I…call this technique the RasenHa…not only because I form it like a Rasengan" Naruto said, struggling as he focused while the beam started to spin faster bit by bit. "I call it that because…it spins, drills, and pierces…the same way a Rasengan does!" he yelled giving one last push, the beam spinning faster for a second which was just what he needed.

The three angels watched as the orb exploded, having been pierced by Naruto's as his beam was seen exploding out the back before it died down and Naruto fell down to a knee. "So? How'd I do?" Naruto asked, panting a bit but smiling nonetheless as he looked at them.

"You exceeded our expectations" Cus said with a smile while Vados nodded with a smile as well.

"Though that means we expect a lot when training you and will train you hard to ensure you meet our new expectations. Are you ready for that?" Vados asked before Naruto stood up and looked her in the eyes with a nod.

"Bring it and I want to get stronger so I'll take whatever training you have, no matter how tough it is" Naruto said making Vados laugh at a bit before she turned to Marcarita.

"I swear you got yourself an interesting God this time sister. This will be very interesting to see how things go with him, don't you think Cus?" she asked as Cus nodded.

"This will be fun" Cus exclaimed with a smile and a slight twirl while Marcarita smiled at the praise towards her god, also interested to see how he would grow in time.

-Shortly after the Elders left-

"So you are telling us Naruto summoned you guys and you didn't drag him back with you!?" Jiraiya yelled in annoyance before Fukasaku leapt up and smacked him hard with his cane, sending the Sanin down to the ground.

"Yeah because he actually has competent teachers by his side unlike a certain someone who ran off with ladies when they should have been training him!" Fukasaku yelled, him and Shima glaring down at Jiraiya who had the decency to stay on the ground.

"Jiraiya's incompetency aside did you say teachers, as in more than one?" Tsunade asked, picking up on the Toad Elder's choice of words.

"Yes, from what I see he has three main teachers around him and they are all some real powerful women. He has another group of strong warriors around him, all who are dead set on making him strong" Shima told them, smiling as she was happy to see Naruto having people so determined to train him considering from what she had heard Naruto has had a bad history with getting lazy teachers.

Tsunade felt happy at those words but still upset that he had felt the need to run off to get stronger – despite his promise to return, which she fully believed as Naruto was never the kind to break a promise. "So can you tell us anything about where he is? Just so we can have a bit of worry taken from us?" she asked, the look the toads sharing not quite easing her worry.

"It's tricky to explain but I guess the most we can say is that…he definitely isn't in the Elemental Nations" Fukasaku said, rubbing the back of his head with a frown before he perked up.

"Oh yeah, which one of you is Sakura?" he asked, getting Sakura to perk up a bit, not expecting to be talked to during this important meeting regarding Naruto.

"U-Um that's me Elder" Sakura said, raising her hand as the green toad turned her way with a smile.

"Ah so you are his girlie?" Fukasaku said with a smirk as he rubbed his beard, making Tsunade smirk at her student while Sakura blushed before the Toad Elder pulled out a letter. "Here, the boyo wrote this for you. He was awfully upset that you were worrying so much so he wrote this to you" he added, making Tsunade start to snicker as her blush grew even darker and she struggled not to crush the letter due to the embarrassment he was causing her – despite him having no idea that it would happen like this.

"Thank you Elder, it really means a lot" she said, taking the letter as she looked it over.

"Don't worry we aren't going to bug you about what it says, go read it in private, you can use my study" Tsunade said, smiling to her apprentice as Sakura nodded and hurried off to read the letter behind closed doors.

'You idiot, you better have a good explanation for me' Sakura thought as she grumbled a bit and opened the letter.

'Dear Sakura,

I'm really sorry for making you worry so much as honestly that was not what I intended to do. I sent the last letter to Tsunade in hopes it wouldn't make people worry. I set out on this training journey to grow stronger with the goal of fulfilling my promise to you but over time I guess it's become more than that and changed to where I want to grow stronger to keep everyone I care about safe.

I won't go too much into detail, as it isn't something I can explain over a letter, but I've gotten to a state where I need to be strong so I am able to protect everyone in my home.

I will be home in five years, I promise you that and when I return I'll show you how I've grown and become a better man

Love, Naruto' she read as she could only shake her head at him.

'I swear that idiot, even when he thinks of himself he is still thinking about others…about me' she thought as shook her head. 'No I can't let him be the only one to grow stronger, I'm going to as well and show him he's an idiot for feeling he had to go this far. And I'll hit him extra hard as well' she added, chuckling as she cracked her knuckles as while this letter had eased her worries a bit it also drove her on to commit even more to her own training.

'Just you wait Naruto, five years from now I won't be a useless teammate anymore' she declared to herself with a smile, hoping that Naruto when he gets back, would be impressed with her growth.

-Five Years Later-

Naruto was a mixture of nervous and excited as he and his angels got everything ready for him to finally return to Konoha. His training had been intense and nearly without any breaks other than his travels to other universes and even then he still fought and trained with those universe's Gods and their inhabitants.

He easily felt he had grown so much in ways besides just strength. He had seen so many planets, races, and sights along the way and learned more than he ever would have if he didn't become a God of Destruction.

Now at 20 years old he stood at a few inches over six feet tall and more muscular but still being lean and not crazy muscular like he had seen some people be across his travels with slightly longer hair then when he had started out.

Throughout the years he had kept up to date on some things from back home through the toads. It was through them that he had thankfully learned some news on Sasuke over the years.

The news was half good and half bad. The toads told him that Jiraiya had gotten intel about Sasuke in regards of him escaping from Orochimaru and even leaving the Sannin at near death according to the state of the base the battle took place in.

Since then Orochimaru had gone into an even deeper level of his usual hiding.

It was good that Sasuke escaped before Orochimaru swapped bodies with him after the three year limit had gone up. The bad part was that Sasuke had apparently formed a group that he was traveling with so who knew what he'd do now that he was traveling on his own. He even heard a rumor that Sasuke had joined the Akatsuki, the very group that was gunning to capture him and the other jinchuriki. It had somewhat surprised him given Itachi, the man Sasuke wanted to kill above all else, was also a part of that team.

Personally he was even more surprised that Sasuke hadn't gone after Itachi yet but in the end he didn't really have much of an opinion on it either way in the end.

Overall, the fact that Sasuke hadn't been taken over by Orochimaru meant his gamble had somewhat paid off despite the end results of the path Sasuke was going down.

He had risked leaving with Marcarita despite knowing in one year Orochimaru would be able to swap bodies as he felt Sasuke wouldn't let that happen and would have some plan to leave once he got everything he wanted from Orochimaru.

Of course this still meant when he'd return he'd strive to get Sasuke to return…although after deep talks with Toppo and the others it might have to be done with Sasuke being a prisoner. He wasn't oblivious towards Sasuke anymore, he was still his friend but he also knew Sasuke had gone down a dark path and done so willingly.

The moment Sasuke left the village the way he did towards Orochimaru in search of power, driving his Chidori through his chest when Naruto had hesitated with his Rasengan was truly the last straw to show he was beyond saving and that he really did not care for their friendship.

But then again there was really never one to begin with when he thought it over.

He'd still fight to bring Sasuke by himself, his training ensuring he'd be able to even if Sasuke was beaten and broken in the end.

"Naruto, come on down for breakfast before we leave!" Marcarita called out, snapping him out of his trance he had gotten into as he had begun starring at himself in the mirror at the man he had become.

He smiled, taking a long smell as the smell of breakfast made him almost start drooling and the sight of the massive table covered in food only made it harder not to.

"I figured given today is the last day of your self-imposed six years of training, signaling the return home for you, we might as well make your last breakfast that you'll have here for a while a big one" Vados said, setting down the food before smiling as she walked behind him, put her hands on his shoulders, and guided him over to his seat between where Cus and Marcarita stood.

"Sadly the Pride Troopers had to respond to an emergency near one of their homes but they did tell you the agreement still stands and that two of them will drop by once the incident is over and things have settled down" Marcarita said, sitting on his left while Cus quickly sat on the right side of him.

"I'm sure they'll send Cocotte first given everything" Vados said with a smirk that made him blush a bit given he knew what she was referencing.

"Personally I'm surprised it took her so long to come out about her feelings. Four years is quite some time to stay quiet about her crush. If it wasn't for the urging of her co-workers and the ongoing bet going on she probably never would have confessed to you~" Cus teased, making him groan and bury his face in his hands.

"Her confession was stunning I have to say, inviting you to her home planet and showing you around in a beautiful sundress and then confessing to you under her village's massive tree which has a local tradition of where confessions that happen under it ending with eternal love~. It was quite a sight and so romantic~" Marcarita said with a smile, looking at him as he could only blush as he remembered it all.

"Can we please not talk about my love life? I don't need to be embarrassed to death right before I head home" Naruto groaned out, giving them a flat look that merely made the three of them giggle at and smile.

"True, if we talked about your love life we'd be here all day" Marcarita said, making him groan again with a blush, Kurama even laughing inside his head with made him want to bury his face in his plate of eggs and bacon.

"I get it, my love life is…complicated. You all should know most of all" he said, looking at his three angels as they merely smiled a sweet smile that he swore made them look like they had devil horns poking out.

"You are right, we would know best, wouldn't we Naruto-kun~" Cus said, before she plopped herself down on his lap, making his blush darken considerably, while she leaned back against him and smiled innocently up at him.

"Its not every day, or millennia, that an angel – let alone three – fall in love" Vados said with a smile, leaning against him a bit before she held her finger up to her chin in thought. "Actually I don't think it's ever happened. That just goes to show how powerful you are Naruto, in ways more than any other God" she said with a soft smile, showing just how he had changed them.

The change had been slow, as nothing is truly sudden in the universe – especially an emotion like love in a being that generally did not form bonds like that.

As Angels they were set to only stand by their God's side and teach them how to fight as well as essentially serve as their personal attendants. Anything more than that wasn't ever something they grew in them.

For Marcarita it happened like a spark over a year by Naruto's side, while unaware what it was at first she eventually understood what it was. For Vados and Cus it was something they had never felt but noticed it quicker and were equally surprised but welcomed it as they had been interested in Naruto as a person from first meeting him. Their interest in him grew over the years until they too decided to confess to him like Marcarita did as well once she understood her feelings.

"Okay sisters, as much as I love teasing Naruto I believe it is best for him to finish his breakfast so we can leave as he is probably really looking forward to returning home" Marcarita said with a giggle which only made Naruto grumble at a bit at how rather mischievous his angels were when it came to teasing him.

But then again it was a small price to pay to have people as powerful and helpful as them around him at all times.

With breakfast done Naruto was excited to finally return, everything they might need inside of a mix of the three angel's staffs, them essentially sharing a storage space.

"And with that I believe everything is set for us to go. Khai will be there to alert us when the others are ready to ensure we are situated for them. Are you ready?" Marcarita asked, smirking as she could easily see just how excited Naruto was as she swore he was almost vibrating with excitement.

"Yeah I'm ready! I finally get to see everyone, see how they grew up, how strong they are, and show them that me being out here for so long was worth it! Lets go!" Naruto cheered, pumping his fists as the angels giggled and each put a hand on him.

"Well, let us be off" Vados said before the four of them disappeared instantly in a flicker.

-Elemental Nations – Just Outside Konoha-

The second they materialized out of the Kai Kai technique a simple deep breath and look at the scenery told Naruto where he was. He knew the trees of Konoha anywhere.

"Ah it feels amazing to be home! Well almost home but you know what I mean" he said turning around as his angels nodded.

"Isn't it time you summoned a toad to warn the others?" Cus reminded him, making him chuckle and nod.

"Right! Sorry I'm just so excited!" Naruto said, his angels merely smiling as they found his excitement over returning home to be rather cute as it showed his attachment to his home world and the people in his life from before becoming a God of Destruction.

As the smoke cleared from his summoning Naruto smiled as he saw the Toad Elders smiling back up at him.

"Ah so its that time is it? Time to finally return home eh?" Fukasaku asked as Naruto nodded.

"Yeah I'm sorry to summon you guys to do this but your two are the smallest toads I know since Gamakichi got giant" Naruto said as Shima waved him off.

"Don't worry about it Naruto, we are happy to be a part of your return home" Shima said, hopping up on his shoulder. "You have grown so much over these years Naruto, I'm sure you will do this world great" she added, pinching his cheek a bit before Fukasaku cleared his through.

"I'll go and give Tsunade a warning and Ma here will let you know when I dispel. Be sure to give Jiraiya and extra smack for us if you are still planning to do what you told us back when you completed your Sage mode training" Fukasaku said while Naruto smirked and nodded.

"You can count on it" Naruto said, giving the toad elder a thumbs up as Fukasaku could only chuckle with a smirk, knowing Naruto was good on his word, before he dispelled.

"You do know Tsunade and Sakura will still be very upset with you right? Even with your letters all those years ago" Shima told him as he nodded with serious look on his face as he looked out towards Konoha.

"I know but I know I'll be able to show them it wasn't for nothing and that I had a serious reason for it. I'll take whatever punches they throw and explain it. I'm confident they'll understand" Naruto said before Shima smiled proudly as she patted his cheek.

"You've become such a mature boy over these years although I'm certain it's mainly due to the company you keep around you." Shima said, looking back to the Angels while Naruto could only nod as he didn't even remotely try to deny it. "Well Pa has went back to Mount Myoboku so you are good to go. Show everyone hell for us and you all keep Naruto in line okay?" she added, looking back to the angels again.

"Of course, that is our job after all" Marcarita said before Shima dispelled. "Best not to keep them waiting any longer. You ready?" she asked, placing her hand on Naruto's shoulder as he nodded.

"I've been waiting eight years to return home, two from the failed training with Jiraiya and six off world. Let's nor waste any more time" Naruto said as he looked over his shoulders at his angels before they put their hands on him one more time and disappeared in a flicker.

The second they reappeared Naruto wasn't that surprised as he saw a fist flying towards his face. He didn't have to guess who it came from as his body moved on his own to block the punch with two of his fingers.

"You know, I do deserve that but it still hurts me a bit inside that this is how you greet me after all these years" Naruto said with a frown as he put his hand over the fist and lowered it to see a familiar pink haired girl.

He had to though hide his surprise as best as he could as Sakura had changed a lot over the years, now standing about a head less than him, her pink hair still short but her figure having greatly changed. Last he saw her she was rather, well…flat in the chest department but now she was reaching Tsunade's N cup levels of largeness where if he had to guess he'd put her at a K cup(*1) with a nice rear to match – though he didn't let his eyes linger to avoid getting her angry at him.

She looked stunning in a sleeveless red qipao dress with white trimmings that reached her upper thighs with a black obi around her waist, her trademark black spats, gray elbow and knee protectors, black gloves, and black heeled sandals.(*2)

"Well what do you expect after you've been gone for eight years!?" Sakura yelled before she grabbed him by the collar of his shirt and pulled him in for a hug. "You are going to pay for being gone for so long later but right now I'm just happy you are back and you seem safe" she said, her voice shaky as Naruto nodded, willing to make it up to her in time as he hugged her back.

He though couldn't hold back a blush as he felt her chest press against him as her new chest would take some getting use to.

"Okay first of all who are they and what is this odd outfit?" Sakura asked, stepping back from the hug as Tsunade got up from behind her desk, walking towards Naruto before he found himself wrapped up in another hug but being gone for eight years he felt this would be a common event for a while.

"I'm glad to see you are safe brat but did you have to make us worry so damn much?" Tsunade asked as Naruto hugged her back with a chuckle.

"Sorry Tsunade but I promise it'll hopefully make sense once I explain everything" he told her, making her break the hug and pull away with a smile and a bit of surprise at the missing 'Granny' in front of her name.

"It's so good to see you again Naruto, you really had us worried when you went missing" Shizune said, going in for a hug as well as she couldn't hold back due to how she has seen the boy like a younger sibling since very shortly after they first met.

"So did this training get you to respect me more and stop calling me Granny?" Tsunade teased with a smirk as she crossed her arms while he rubbed the back of his head once Shizune let him out of her hug.

"Well I met a lot of beings way older and look just as young if not younger so I guess you can say yeah" Naruto said while looking over to Cus a bit, given she was the eldest of all the angels, before Tsunade smiled and patted him on the back. "Where is Jiraiya and Kakashi?" Naruto asked, looking around as he was expecting them to be here as well considering everything.

"I haven't told them you returned and will tell them once we learn about your situation as I felt with them around it might be more difficult considering Jiraiya's dropping of the ball with you" Tsunade said, noticing the slight frown and narrowing of Naruto's eyes at the mention of Jiraiya's failure. Then again she didn't blame him as it was a very poor job on Jiraiya's part.

"So I'd say it is about time for you start the explanation and introduce odd skinned the women behind you" Tsunade said as she had noticed them the second he arrived, their similar appearances making her think they might be siblings.

"Oh right, Tsunade and Sakura I'd like you to meet Marcarita, Vados, and Cus. They are my angels" Naruto said, the introduction only serving to confuse them even more.

"I believe it'll make sense after we explain everything, starting with the day Naruto first met me and ended up in the situation he now is in" Marcarita said as she held out her staff and a screen appeared above it in the air while Tsunade went back to sit behind her desk.

As the video of his fight with Belmod played Naruto did his best to explain everything that happened from telling them what Belmod was to the role he found himself in to even the situation of the whole multiple universes, gods of destruction, and angels.

By the end of it he didn't blame their unsure looks on their face as it was a lot of info to take in that seemed very out there.

"Naruto, sorry but this sounds honestly insane" Sakura said with a slight frown, making Naruto sigh as Shizune nodded.

"I mean, it is a lot to take in" Shizune added before Tsunade stood up from behind her desk.

"Can you back up these claims for us?" Tsunade asked as Naruto perked up, glad she was willing to accept things for the most part as long as he could show an example.

"Yeah I can, hell I'll show everyone proof. Get everyone I graduated with to come to the Third Training Grounds as it'll be easier to show everyone than having to show them one at a time when I run into them. Make sure everyone comes with you as I kind of don't want to be hounded with questions while I wait for everyone to show up" Naruto told her, meeting Tsunade's eyes before the woman smiled and nodded.

"Okay then, we will see you there" she said, getting confused looks from Sakura and Shizune before she draped her an arm over both of their shoulders to get them to walk with her. "Have some faith in Naruto, if he is standing behind his claims and willing to show proof to back them up then he must be able to. We will just have to wait and see so how about you two help get everyone gathered for him, be sure to get Temari as well since I hear she's in the village right now" she told Sakura, her apprentice nodding before Tsunade looked over to Naruto with a smile.

"Well? Go on to the training grounds, get ready for us, we'll be there before you know it" Tsunade said waving him off with her hand with a smile before Naruto nodded, smiling back as he was glad she at least had some faith in him that he wasn't talking crazy.

"Got it" Naruto said as he didn't even need to look at his angels as they once again teleported him away to the familiar training grounds.

"That went a bit better than you were expecting, right Naruto?" Cus asked as he nodded, walking over to a familiar trio of posts before sitting down at the top of the middle one.

"Oh yeah, I fully expected none of them to believe me but having Tsunade back me up is going to make this so much easier and now all we have to do is wait" Naruto said as he crossed his legs and smiled as one of his angels made him a cup of tea to drink while they waited.

He was honestly surprised at how quickly everyone had gathered, watching as Tsunade came walking in with everyone behind her. He smiled as he saw everyone and just how they all had changed.

The guys had all grown and matured, some surprisingly like Choji and Kiba while some looked the same as ever like Shikamaru and Rock Lee.

The girls had changed a lot whether in terms of outfits like Tenten or overall like Ino, Temari, and especially Hinata.

Ino, while she was always pretty, had grown even more so with her blonde hair now reaching down to her calves and almost to her ankles with her bangs covering her right eye. Her outfit was now a sleeveless high collared purple top that was somewhat tight around her easily F cup chest and exposed her midriff entirely due to her purple skirt that sat low on her hips but went all the way down to her ankles with a pair of black high heeled sandals.

Temari had also changed things up a lot, her hair no longer being four ponytails but now only two with her bangs falling to the right of her face. Her outfit now being a black short sleeved kimono that went down to a bit above her ankles with a very long slit that went up to the red obi around her waist. She had also seemingly matured like the others, her chest now around a high D cup.

Hinata though had definitely changed the most in terms of outfit and appearance, just as much as Sakura had. Her outfit, instead of her old tan jacket, was a light lavender sleeveless kimono style blouse with a purple obi around her waist, and a pair of short dark navy shorts with thigh high stockings and black high heeled boots. Her outfit was pretty stunning mainly due to the fact her top did far too well at showing off the size of her easily L cup chest.

"Whoa Naruto! Is that you man? Where have you been?" Kiba asked as he rushed forward, smiling as Naruto hopped down and accepted Kiba's hand shake and one armed hug.

"Sorry been out doing some heavy duty training that involved me going all over the place. Couldn't really keep in contact much other than to tell Tsunade I was coming back" Naruto said as the others started walking towards him.

"Sounds troublesome but considering you that's to be expected" Shikamaru complained with a slight smile since he was glad to see his friend back while he leaned back against a tree and crossed his arms.

"It's great to see all of you again, you've all changed a lot" Naruto said as several of them smiled at him.

"I know, I've become even more beautiful don't you think~?" Ino asked as she ran her hands down her body with a flirty wink and smirk before sliding to the side and behind Sakura. "Also you've seen Sakura right? She definitely grew in all the right places~. You can thank Tsunade-sama for that~" Ino said as she surprised Sakura by reaching around her and starting to grope her chest, Naruto watching as Ino's hands sunk into Sakura's breasts before Sakura elbowed Ino, making the woman hunch over on the ground.

"Owww….you hit me…too hard" Ino groaned out on the ground as Sakura just 'hmph'ed at her with a dark blush on her face from being groped like that.

"Also you have to admit Hinata also grew up nicely and that is all due to her genes" Ino went on, quickly somewhat recovering as she got up and somewhat limped over to Hinata, hugging her from behind with her arms around Hinata's waist and making the shy and blushing girl step forward.

"She's even bigger than Sakura and that's saying a lot~" she purred out, trailing a finger over Hinata's breast, her finger somewhat sinking into it as Hinata grew darker and closed her eyes tightly before Neji cleared his throat beside her, making Ino sigh and let Hinata go and go to stand next to Sakura again.

"Ignoring Ino's perversion towards Hinata and Sakura it is really nice to see you. Gaara has been worried about you as well, he is grateful for the letters you sent him" Temari said, getting Tsunade to look at her and then Naruto with a raised eyebrow.

"I basically sent Gaara the same things I sent you, telling him not to worry and that I'll be back in a few years. I couldn't keep him worried either" Naruto said, making Tsunade nod before he turned back to Temari. "I'll have to visit him next as I have a lot to tell him as well but it's great to see you as well, I wasn't expecting you to be here when I came home" Naruto said, making Temari smile happily at before she looked him over.

"You've grown a lot Naruto and I'll have to catch up with you later but I have to ask what is with the blue ladies behind you?" Temari asked, looking over to his side at the three similarly dressed women.

"Be patient Temari, Naruto will get to it" Tsunade told him, making her nod as she looked to Naruto who gave her a 'don't worry about it' look with a smile. "Well I brought everyone here, I didn't tell them anything so you can explain to all of them in one fell swoop" she said as Naruto looked around.

"Everyone? So does that mean Kakashi and Jiraiya will come out from hiding in the trees?" Naruto asked, looking behind him with a raised eyebrow before he saw his two former sensei drop down from the trees.

"So you can sense chakra, I guess that is something but that doesn't excuse you ditching my training like that" Jiraiya said with a frown, looking at Naruto with a look in his eyes that make it clear he was upset.

"You will see shortly that Naruto learned more from me and a group of allies in one year than with you in two" Marcarita said, smiling her sweet smile that made a shiver shoot down Jiraiya's spine.

"It's nice to see you again Naruto, you've grown up nicely and surrounded yourself with interesting people as always" Kakashi said, eyeing Naruto before looking over to the women beside him.

"It's nice to see you as well Kakashi, it's been quite a while" he replied, noticing Kakashi's frown from under his facemask at the lack of 'sensei' attached to his name despite Kakashi not saying anything else as he joined the others with Jiraiya following suit.

"So what's your explanation for why you have been gone for so long?" Jiraiya asked as he sat down on a tree stump and crossed his arms with a frown.

"Okay I know everyone will have some questions but please just listen and wait until after my demonstration planned for after the video. Try to keep an open mind" Naruto told everyone as he hopped back on top of the post before looking to his angels before Cus decided to pull up the video.

While it was annoying to explain everything again given he just explained it to Tsunade, Sakura, and Shizune, he didn't quite mind that much as it'd make things a lot easier than having to explain everything to everyone one by one.

As he finished he could see the confusion and surprise from everyone as he could see they had several questions but a simple held up finger stopped them.

"I know you all doubt me but just watch and stay in the barrier" Naruto told them, nodding to his angels as Vados and Cus stood on the sides of the group while Marcarita stayed by his side before raising their staffs and forming a green translucent barrier around all of them.

"You all doubt I am a god of destruction or my claims right?" Naruto asked as almost everyone nodded save for a few people. "Well just watch" he told them as he summoned an orb of destruction energy in his hand.

"This is Destruction Energy and is able to destroy anything it touches, I will prove my claim by destroying something," Naruto said, aiming his hand up to the sky "and that will be the sun" he added before he fired it before anyone could say anything.

Due to the nature of the barrier everyone was able to stare up at the sun without hurting their eyes as they saw it pulse purple and slowly get eaten away, the light fading away.

"And now reset" Vados said, smiling to the others as they stood in shock before everything returned to normal with the sun back above them.

"W-What? H-How? What the hell is going on!?" Kiba yelled, his jaw completely dropped from everything that he had seen on the video to what he had just seen.

"I believe Naruto already explained everything Kiba and the proved it by destroying the sun only to make it reappear, which is the only part I am confused about" Neji said as the angels dropped the barrier and returned to Naruto's side.

"That is an ability of ours as if we desire we can rewind time up to three minutes. This is in case Naruto or any God of Destruction destroys something they shouldn't or didn't want to. Naruto decided that destroying the sun and rewinding it would be the easiest way to prove things to you all" Cus told them as Shikamaru let out a groan.

"I swear Naruto, you really are too troublesome. You somehow became more of a bother than you were when we were kids" Shikamaru said, chuckling at the end as this was just how Naruto had always been.

"W-Wow, you've really become amazing Naruto-kun" Hinata said in slight awe before blushing as he turned to smile at her.

"So what kid!? You have a fancy power, that doesn't mean you are hot shit" Jiraiya said, standing up and walking through the group as they hurried to get out of his way.

"Are you still angry I left Jiraiya?" Naruto asked with a raised eyebrow. "I had no choice as in two years you hadn't taught me anything! You focused on something that had reached a dead end and even then you didn't care to teach me anything else and instead went to countless whorehouses with my money! No nature affinity, no telling me about the trick to my shadow clones, or anything! In one year with Marcarita and the Pride Troopers I learned more than all my years of training with you and Kakashi!" Naruto yelled, beyond fed up of his poor luck with teachers over the years.

"Naruto, that is enough. You need to respect both of your sensei" Kakashi said, putting his hand on Naruto's shoulder before he shoved it off.

"Now, I'm at a point in my life where I feel I can speak out about things Kakashi and I want to speak out about my terrible luck in teachers! You taught me and Sakura nothing! Absolutely nothing other than walking on trees while you teach Sasuke a deadly lightning attack that he later tried to kill me with! Sakura at least got lucky with Tsunade as her punch when I first showed up was pretty damn strong!" Naruto said, looking from Jiraiya to Kakashi with a frown on his face.

"Me on the other hand I get two teachers who taught me how to walk on different surfaces, a summoning technique, and my birthright" Naruto said, getting Jiraiya to widen his eyes at his reveal. "Yeah I know all about my parents! Hell as God of Destruction I can literally go to the afterlife and travel through it. I talked to them and they aren't happy with either of you" Naruto said before he blocked Jiraiya's punch.

"If you are so cocky and confident that you are strong then prove it" Jiraiya said as he put his hand on Kakashi's shoulder. "Prove it to both of us" he told him as Naruto chuckled and smirked.

"Fine but I suggest Sage mode and your Sharingan from the start otherwise…I might have to get my angels to heal you from near death" Naruto said as everyone was watching in a mix of feeling sorry for Naruto and worried about what might happen.

"Tsunade-sama? Aren't you going to stop them?" Ino asked before Tsunade shook her head and sat down on an overturned log with Sakura joining her.

"No, I'm not going to stop anything. I agree with Naruto. That boy has basically been on his own with teachers. When I got to Sakura I was lucky she had great chakra control as Kakashi had her really below par. I can only imagine what level Naruto was at due to him and if Naruto is right about what Jiraiya didn't teach him then really don't blame him" she said as the angels waved their staffs over the ground, creating a large blanket and plates of food for everyone.

"Everyone, please sit down and relax. We'll ensure no damage comes your way and Naruto even asked us to prepare you all some snacks as he felt this would happen" Vados said, smiling to them as they looked to one another, a bit unsure about this but given there was nothing they could do they decided to sit down.

"Really? You want me to use Sage mode? Are you really that confident?" Jiraiya asked, scoffing a bit as Naruto crossed his arms.

"Either you do it or you are going to die in this fight" Naruto said as Jiraiya shook his head and got into his fighting stance as Kakashi lifted up his headband.

"Don't get arrogant kid, I'm not using Sage mode" Jiraiya said as Naruto sighed and cracked his neck.

"So be it" Naruto said before he appeared in front of Jiraiya and slammed his fist into the man's gut, sending him rocketing back and crashing through several trees. He wasted no time, grabbing Kakashi's kunai mid-swing with his bare hand and slamming a palm thrust into him, it poofing away to reveal a shadow clone.

"Well at least you're cautious" Naruto said as he walked forward towards where he had sent Jiraiya flying off towards.

"So Vados was it?" Shikamaru asked, turning to the oldest looking angel as she smiled down at him. "If you can answer, what exactly are angels?" Shikamaru asked as Vados held her finger to her chin and turned her head to the side a bit.

"We are whatever our God needs of us. We are their trainer, their secretary, and their assistant. All angels are siblings to each other with our father working beside Lord Zen-Oh" she explained making Kiba run his hands through his hair.

"So are you the eldest one?" Tenten asked, looking to Vados only for her and Marcarita to giggle a bit as they always found this funny to reveal.

"Actually no, Cus is" Marcarita said as everyone looked to the small angel in shock while she was sitting next to Tsunade and enjoying some cookies with a happy smile on her face. Once the youngest angel noticed their staring, knowing the reason as it had happened a lot and she found it funny as well, she merely waved at them.

"This is crazy. So there are multiple universes out there?!" Kiba asked, still not accepting it too well since having it revealed to you that the world was much more massive then you thought it was didn't go over with everyone the same way. Some accepted it while others somewhat freaked out.

"Yes, 12 if you were listening. It is a lot to take in but Naruto handled it and he was dropped right into it after nearly dying to a psycho clown!" Ino said as she slapped her hand down on his back to try and snap him out of it since she felt he might really snap soon.

"Shush and watch the fight!" Sakura scolded them, making Ino pout as they turned back to see Jiraiya leap out from the forest with Rasengan posed to hit Naruto from behind only for him to immediately turn around with a Rasengan of his own in his hand before slamming it into his.

Their Rasengan struggled against each other before Naruto's started to grow and send Jiraiya blasting away, clutching his broken hand as he stopped his flight by spiking out his hair. Jiraiya barely had any time to dodge as another Rasengan was shot at him and as it hit the ground Jiraiya was shocked to see it explode in a large dome of swirling energy.

"Oh good you dodged it, barely and that one wasn't even full speed" Naruto said as he charged up another two in his hands. "But first stop hiding Kakashi" Naruto said, shooting a RasenKi blast at the ground behind him, utterly destroying the ground and forcing Kakashi to flee from his hiding place underground.

"Naruto, this is going too far. Stop now" Kakashi said as Naruto fired another RasenKi at both of them, causing them to dodge although Naruto noticing that Jiraiya had substituted with a log.

"You think he is going to take you seriously with Sage mode?" Kurama asked him, a smirk heard in his tone as Naruto chuckled mentally as well.

'Hopefully' he thought as he swatted away Kakashi's thrown kunai, catching one and throwing it back at him before the bomb tag went off, causing Kakashi to dash back out of the explosion. Naruto didn't give him any rest as he leapt through the smoke, coating his hands in destruction energy to swat away shuriken and kunai, destroying them instantly.

"Sorry Kakashi, you all started this. You can end this just by giving up and admitting you two were terrible teachers" Naruto said, narrowing his eyes as he knew he was being a bit harsh on them but considering everything he's gone through with them to him it felt fair.

Kakashi didn't given an answer as he leapt back an quickly ran through a few hand seals before his hand erupted in lightning, lightning stronger than the Chidori so Naruto knew it was his Raikiri.

"Oh the Raikiri, you are serious it seems" Naruto said, staring Kakashi down before the jonin shook his head.

"You are still young and inexperienced, you shouldn't have met my eyes with you being a jinchuriki" Kakashi said as he was certain he caught Naruto in a genjutsu only for Naruto to shake his head with a sigh.

"And you still continue to underestimate me" Naruto said, making Kakashi frown as his plan to hopefully end this quickly had failed before his Raikiri flared again.

"Fine don't blame me for any damage I cause!" Kakashi yelled before dashing forward, his speed enhanced by Raikiri before Naruto coated his hand in Destruction Energy and used two fingers to strike the Raikiri head on.

As his Destruction Energy clashed with Kakashi's Raikiri Naruto charged up a RasenKi in his hand, the second the Raikiri broke Naruto grabbed Kakashi's hand to keep him from escaping. "I'll heal you after this" Naruto told him before he fired the RasenKi into his gut, exploding it point blank range and as the dome died down he let go of Kakashi, allowing him to drop down to the ground unconscious and injured but not dead.

"One down, one to go" Naruto said as he sensed Jiraiya again.

"So did you fuse with the Toad Elders or did they just help you get Sage mode and then leave cause I really don't want to hurt them" Naruto told Jiraiya before he was able to sense it was just Jiraiya and no extra sources attached to him.

"Earth Style: Swamp of the Underworld!" Jiraiya yelled out as the ground started to turn into a reddish brown before Naruto simply hopped up before it got completely under him, using simple flight to stay above it.

"So what if you can fly! I'll still get you with this brat!" Jiraiya yelled as he leapt up into the air, Naruto noticing a toad taking Kakashi away before Jiraiya formed a Rasengan in his hand.

Naruto though smirked as he noticed the red markings on his face before the Rasengan instantly grew to a Cho Odama Rasengan.

"Really going all out, I might as well match it a bit" Naruto said with a smile, putting his hands in a 'C' shape as he formed a RasenHa in his hand "but my RasenHa will still win you old pervert!" Naruto yelled as he fired the spiraling beam just as Jiraiya went to swing his Cho Odama Rasengan down at him overhead.

Compared to the angels this was so much easier as his RasenHa crashed into Jiraiya's Cho Odama Rasengan, easily piercing it and causing it to explode in Jiraiya's hand.

As the smoke died down Naruto looked down from where he was hovering to see Jiraiya passed out and injured, just like Kakashi, from the explosion but in much worse shape than Kakashi.

"Marcarita, Vados, come heal Kakashi and Jiraiya for me please and Cus can you fix the area please?" Naruto asked before his angels appeared.

"Of course, you showed great restraint in not accidentally killing them" Marcarita said with a smile as he left them to their work and returned back to the others.

"Whoa Naruto…don't you think that was a bit much?" Tenten asked, frowning a bit at how intense that fight was and how he was during it.

"What do you mean? That was me holding back, heavily so" Naruto said as he looked to Tsunade and frowned at her serious look on her face. "I hope that was okay" he told her before she got up and walked towards him.

To be honest he was expecting her to hit him or yell at him but instead he was surprised when she put her hand in his head and ruffled his hair.

"It was fine, it'll teach that pervert his lesson plus you gave us a good show of how strong you have grown. You may still be a genin but give it time and don't be surprised if you are given a promotion soon" she said with a smile and a wink as everyone got up as his angels reappeared with an unconscious Jiraiya and Kakashi floating near them.

"Naruto the grounds are repaired and the injuries of these two are gone. What do you wish to do with them?" Marcarita asked as Tsunade rubbed her chin in thought before she waved them off.

"Leave them here as on the way here I told a certain ramen shop of your return and they told me to bring you back as soon as I could. Seems like you have a party waiting for you" Tsunade said as everyone chuckled at the stars Naruto gained in his eyes.

"Well, what are we waiting for!? I've missed Ichiraku's Ramen as even as great a cook as Vados is the familiar taste of Ichiraku's will still mean a bit more" he said, smiling to Vados who nodded as she understood and took no insult by it.

"Then let' go and celebrate your return!" Tsunade said, draping her arm over his shoulder and pulling him to her side and raising her arm as everyone around them cheered.

'It feels amazing to be home' he thought with a smile he was excited to help his home planet with his new powers and people he had met over the years.

-Elsewhere-

"Oh my, seems like the young God has finally returned home. Now it is time to get things started" a woman said, a smirk appearing on her face as she sat upon her floating staff and overlooked the planet that would become the focal point of her plans for the foreseeable future.

With the arrival of a brand new God of Destruction she couldn't resist the chance of it working to advantage as that kind of energy was perfect.

"Come, time to situate and introduce ourselves with our future pawns" the woman said to her male assistant before they made their descent down to the planet.
