The Shinobi Visitor

Chapter 3 - Relaxation and Explanation...

After two days of fighting the now called walkers and exhaustion, the group of surviving teenagers had found a temporary haven with a fridge filled with food, a working vehicle and the mother of all them; a shower with hot water.

"Oh, this feels nice," said Rei as she slipped into the bath filled with water and soap along with Shizuka sitting in the other end of the tub.

The perky doctor sighed in relief as the cool and relaxing water touches her dirty body. "It feels like I'm melting away." The females of the group decided to take a shower together instead of taking turns for obvious reasons, plus the males.

Saya picked up a bottle as she was sitting on a bench alongside Saeko with a mirror in front of them. "This is shampoo, right?" The girl being picky as they come, despite of their world overrun with the undead.

"Good God, you're gigantic." Rei staring at Shizuka's huge assets while the latter holds them up a little.

Shizuka smiled a little. "I know. I get that a lot."

The spear martial artist chuckled a little. "Ha, almost impossible gigantic," then the girl attacked the doctor by playfully grabbing the latter's gigantic breasts, making her squeal in response.

The pink hair genius twitched her left eye, "Remind me again, why we'd have to take showers at the same time?"

Saeko looked at her while scrubbing her arm, "You know why. Don't you, Takagi?" Saya sighed in response as she looked back to see the female duo wrestling in the bathtub and was surprised and quickly faced forward while scrubbing her hair frantically.

"Yeah, but given the circumstances, I don't think we should be doing this," said Saya unsuspecting what her friend next to her is going to do. The swordswoman turned the knob to cold in the showerhead and spray the pink hair, making her squeal in response.

Saeko smiled with her eyes closed. "Wow, I didn't know that you have such a nice voice. Boys must be falling for you all over in high school," unbeknownst to her, Saya retaliated by dropping a bucket of cold water on her back, making her moan in delight. She looked at the brains of the group to see her with a grin on her face.

"Hey, you started it," remarked Saya. After that, the girls started to play around with each other, shouting playfully and letting three certain males listen.

-Upstairs In The Bedroom-

"Sounds like they're having fun," said Takashi listening to the sounds. He and his friend, Kohta, founded a few boxes of ammunition in one of the lockers with the latter trying to open the other, suspecting that there are guns in it.

"Want to take a peek? You know we're supposed to, right?" asked Kohta while trying to pick the lock.

Takashi shook his head, "No, thanks, man. I actually don't want to die." He and the gun lover heard sloshing, so they turned their faces to the stairs where Naruto was carrying a bucket of water with a clean rag on the side of it. He set the bucket in front of the bed, facing the duo, then took off his sword and set it beside him. Then the ninja took off his bloodied flak jacket and placed it in the bucket and started scrubbing it with the rag.

"Hey, Naruto," Kohta called out, getting the blonde's attention, "do you want to sneak a peek at the girls?"

The shinbo shook his head. "I actually want to live, thank you very much. And nothing good can come out of it, believe me." He continued scrubbing the blood off his jacket.

Takashi and Hirano raised their eyebrows with the latter having a grin on his face. "Oh, you got caught, didn't you?" Naruto shook his head and looked at the duo.

"No, but my late sensei did. When he was young, he spied on his fellow teammate and when he got caught, he paid for it. He recieved several rib fractures and several organ damage by the girl," replied Naruto as he continued scrubbing, and smirked when he saw the terrified look on Hirano's face. The ninja's smirk turned into a mischievous grin, scaring Hirano as well making the latter sweating bullets like crazy. "Go ahead, I'll send flowers to your funeral."

Images of the girls with evil looks with their weapons and the intent to harm overwhelmed the gun lover to the point that he almost peed himself and Naruto was laughing as hell, clutching his sides.

"Shh, Naruto, don't attract attention to ourselves," said Hirano as he tried to shush the unknown ninja for a few minutes until the latter finally calmed down. The marksman sighed and fixed his glasses, "Want to help us get this door open?"

The blonde stopped and thought about it for a moment, "Nope, you ladies got it." Tick marks appeared on the duo's heads when they heard the 'ladies' comment and stick their tongues at the ninja who stuck his tongue as well before continuing scrubbing the blood off.

"Fine, we don't need you. Come on, Komuro," said Hirano as he lodged a wrench between the doors with the former grabbing the top of the wrench. "Ready? Now!" The two grunted in response as they continue to put more pressure and strength until the door gave way, causing Takashi to lose his balance and fell on his butt.

"Ow, that hurt," said the leader as he rubbed his back. Hirano looked inside and automatically grinned like a madman again as he pulled out a weapon from the locker, examining it.

Naruto's eyes widen in surprise when his chubby friend brought a larger version of the gun that Takashi pulled on him when he first arrived in their world. "Man, the technology here is ridiculously more advanced then weapons in my world, both weaponry and transportation." He continued to listen to Kohta talking about the other weapons like the mad and crazy fan he is until the ninja heard screaming and he looked up to see Takashi pointing one of the guns at Kohta.

"Hey man, don't ever point that thing at anyone, even if it's not loaded," said Kohta comically panicking before a serious face appeared, "the only time you should use it is to kill."

"Yeah, but I hope it doesn't come to 'that', you know," said Takashi catching Naruto's attention when he finished scrubbing the blood from his jacket and hanged it on the railing for it to dry. The ninja soon realized that if should one of them gets infected by the walkers, one of them must shoot them with no second thought. He heard clanging and turned around to see the chubby gun lover trying to lift his sword but it wouldn't move for some reason, which confused the trio.

"Hirano, what are you doing?" asked the blonde with the former looking at him nervously.

"Hehehe, I-I just wanted to see your sword, but I can't seem to pick it up," replied Kohta as he puts more effort but to no avail.

Naruto cocked his eyebrow and walked over to his friend and gestured him to move aside, which the latter did. Then the ninja grabbed the hilt of the sword and sheathe and simply picked it up with no trouble, lastly he faced both Kohta and Takashi with the former greatly confused. "I can pick it up just fine. Are you sure you weren't playing around?"

Kohta pointed his finger comically at the blonde, "Yes, I'm sure that I wasn't playing around. How come you lift it so easily and I can't?" The question did intrigue the wielder of Tenkaichi as he slung the blade over his right shoulder. "Could it be that only I can use Tenkaichi since it's a part of me and whatnot? I should've asked the old man about this." He was brought out of his train of thoughts when Hirano called Takashi to help load the bullets into the magazines, so he decided to head outside to the balcony.

As he stepped out to the balcony and leaned forward on the railing, Naruto looked up in the stars and the clouds that drifting by, making the latter smile. "Even if it is a little break, it sure is a bit peaceful tonight." The few minutes of silence passed by for the ninja until he heard noises and Takashi came out with a set of binoculars and looked through them, facing the bridge nearby.

"What's happening over there, Takashi?" asked Naruto after a few moments.

The black hair leader took the binoculars from his eyes and said, "Chaos. The police are holding a barricade and keeping the uninfected away from the walkers, but they're not letting the uninfected get into the city."

The blonde sighed in response as he run his hand through his hair before getting back inside the bedroom and sat on the floor, beside Kohta while leaning against the bed. He watched his friend putting the last of the bullets into the magazine before slamming it into the gun and set it in front of him. Then Kotha looked at the blonde, staring at his uniform before disturbing him.

"Hey, Naruto," the blonde opening his left eye only and looked at the corner of the eye, "now that we're in a secure place, can you tell us about yourself and your ability to manipulate wind?" Takashi came in after he heard his fellow classmate and sat next to Kohta, both staring at the ninja.

Naruto opened his right eye and looked at the duo, "Look, my lie is a very long story and I don't like to repeat it because it's a huge drag. I'll tell you guys about when everyone is here. Understand?" He received nods from the pouted high schoolers, then closed his eyes as he goes into a needed rest or so he thought he was going to…

-Naruto's Mindscape-

The young Sage felt his consciousness being pulled, so he opened his eyes and found himself in front of his partner, Kurama. "Kurama, what is it, bud?"

"Naruto, it's time to start training," replied the fox, surprising his Jinchuriki.

Naruto blinked for a few seconds, "Really? Okay, then. Can't let either of us get weak just because we're in another world. Not that I'm saying that you would get weak, Kurama since you are the strongest Tailed Beast." He see a smirk on his partner's face before slipping into his Frog Kata stance and the former crouching with his tails swinging freely behind him.

"Ready, kid?"

"Ready, Kurama."

The duo charged at each other with Naruto jumping high into the air and was about to land a punch at the fox's face until a sudden shockwave happened, causing the blonde to lose his concentration while in mid-air. "What the heck was that?" He didn't receive a verbal answer but a physical answer. "Oh," exclaimed Naruto as he was hurdling through the air until he fixed himself and landed on the ground while skidding on the water-soaked floor, until finally stopping 20 yards from the fox.

The latter had a grin, which made Naruto have a tick mark to appear on his hand and pointed his finger at the beast. The blonde Sage comically complaining, "That was a cheap shot right there, and you know it, Kurama." The fox laughed at his jinchuriki's antic and he stopped, but still had the grin on his face.

"You better check it out. Your new friends must be waiting for you," said Kurama with the same grin, watching the grumbling jinchuriki disappeared.

-Real World-

"Damn cheating fox," Naruto grumbled softly to himself as he opened his eyes. He looked to his right to see Kohta standing all freaked-out until he looked to his left and he was stunned with his jaw slightly opened. He saw Takashi touching the towel-bound doctor's huge assets before quickly retracting them and looked down.

"Sorry about that," Takashi apologizing timidly. He saw Naruto with his jaw opened and was about to say something, but the busty doctor cut him off.

"Kotha, darling," said the drunken blonde crawling over to the corner of the bed, with the gun lover frozen in place. "W-Who, me? Darling?"

The ninja quickly stood up next to Takashi, watching the doctor get closer to Hirano. Their jaws dropped when she kissed him on the cheek, causing the boy's face to blush madly and both males sweat-dropped when blood comically spurt out of the gun lover's nose before fainting.

"Looks like he can't handle a simple kiss," remarked Naruto before Shizuka set her eyes on him and lunged at him, but the former was quick on his feet and put the unsuspected Takashi in front of him, who blushed when the doctor was leaning on his chest before falling asleep.

Takashi glared at the smirking ninja, "Naruto, why'd you do that?"

"Because I can," replied Naruto simply. He walked to the stairs, leaving behind a protesting Takashi and continued walking down until he reached the bottom of the stairs, and his face blushed overly red by the sight he's seeing now in the kitchen.

The Kenjutsu female warrior was wearing an apron that covered her naked body, a black thong and her purple hair was tied into a single ponytail. She was currently cooking something and didn't notice the blushing blonde until the latter slapped him-self good. Saeko blushed when she noticed the blushes on Naruto's face. "Sorry about the outfit. My clothes were bloody and they're in the washer. This is all I can wear for now."

Naruto snapped out of his daze, "No, no, no, you look great. It's just…I wasn't expecting any of you ladies to be out of the shower already." He noticed Rei, in her pajamas, walking towards him and knew that she was drunk like Shizuka upstairs since her eyes were droopy and her speech was slurring.

"Hey, Rei," greeted the Jinchuriki.

The spear martial artist looked at him and asked, "W-where i-is T-Takashi?" Naruto pointed up and the girl walked upward while stumbling at the same time with the blonde ninja walking into the kitchen and grabbed a bottle of water from the fridge. He felt a pair of eyes staring at him and looked at Saeko, but he noticed her gaze was upon Tenkaichi and smiled.

"Can't stop looking at my sword, huh?" asked Naruto, causing his female companion to blush a little. He drew the black blade with it facing downward, gesturing Saeko to grab the hilt.

Saeko was surprised, "Really?" She saw Naruto nodded and so she extended her hand to wield the blade. The blonde Sage was expecting something to happen, but he was surprised when his female counterpart grabbed the hilt and held it like nothing.

Then he heard his partner say something. "Hmm, that's interesting."

"What's interesting, Kurama?" asked Naruto mentally.

"It seem that your sword can be wielded by others if you give them permission to do so. Remember when the fat kid tried to pick up Tenkaichi, but couldn't? He didn't ask for your permission or you allowing him. For her, you gave her permission to wield the blade and nothing happened," replied the tailed fox with his Jinchuriki nodding briefly as he watched the beauty in front of him admiring his weapon.

"That is interesting. Do you think the old man kept this knowledge out or he didn't know it him-self?" asked the whiskered ninja.

The fox thought about this for a few moments before he replied. "I don't think that he knew. Remember he said he didn't forge his sword and he couldn't unlock the full potential of his weapon?" He received a mental 'yes' from Naruto and continued, "He couldn't have known about it. We should take precautions and observe everything regarding the blade to fully understand it."

"Sounds like a plan, Kurama. Thanks." And with that, Naruto ended the mental link with his partner just in time to hear Saeko's question.

"This is a very fine sword. Does it have a name?"

Naruto nodded, "Yeah, it's called Tenkaichi." He saw the purple-hair smile and felt blood rushing to his face as he tries not to let his late sensei's pervert ways take over. "Damn you, pervy sage." Then he noticed that he was staring at her, making the latter female blush and fixed himself. "Sorry about staring at you like that. I-it's just that you're really beautiful, obviously that you've made it to the top of my 'The Hottest Women I've Ever Met' list," said Naruto sheepishly while rubbing the back of his head.

Now Saeko was blushing madly when she heard the compliment from the blonde and was thinking about the time that Naruto will tell her and the rest of the group about himself and his apparent ability to manipulate the wind and his abnormal speed. Also she couldn't help feeling safe near the blonde swordsman and liked his kindness as his honesty and his physical appearance. He would be eye candy for girls around their age and perhaps women older than they are.

Naruto held out his hand in front of Saeko, with the latter realizing that the former would like his blade back, "Here you go." She gave the weapon back the ninja and watched him sheathed it. Then the duo heard footsteps from the stairs and looked to find Takashi carrying a passed-out and towel-covered Shizuka on his back. The ninja got close to the purple-hair and whispered, "How long do you think he'll notice you?"

"Not long," Saeko quickly replied with pride and Naruto looking at her in surprise by her response, then smirked. The two continued to watch the apparent oblivious and tired Takashi head to the fridge and grabbed a bottle of water while heading back to the stairs until he noticed Naruto and the half-naked Saeko and covered his nose to stop it from bleeding.

"Haha, you were right, Saeko. It didn't take him long," said Naruto trying to stop himself to laugh more while Saeko smiled at the awe-stricken leader before continuing to cook. The ninja noticed Takashi still staring at Saeko and decided that he let him enjoy the show, so he walked to the living room and sat down with his eyes closed.

-Naruto's Mindscape-

"Fox! Where are you?! You and I have unfinished business to attend to," exclaimed Naruto. Soon, the Tailed Beast appeared, staring at his Jinchuriki with a mischievous grin on his face.

"Yes, we do, but first…" replied Kurama with Naruto waiting for him to continue, "Change the place in here. It'd be better if we have a more appropriate training/battleground."

Naruto blinked for a few moments as he processed what the mighty Tailed Beast had just asked him before smiling. "Sure and I couldn't agree with you more." The ninja closed his eyes and focused for a minute before opening his eyes as he takes in the new area that he just created. Vast lands of green open field with tall grass, trees that are taller than him, but shorter than Kurama. On his right, he finds a huge cave that was next to a waterfall and knew that this was perfect for his partner, speaking of which…

"Wait a minute…where is that big lug anyway?" asked a bewildered Naruto as he turned around, searching for his sparring partner. "Man, while I'm taking sightseeing, Kurama took the advantage to hide and is probably planning his attack by now…Why am I talking to myself like this?"

He continued to search for the Tailed Beast until he noticed a shadow looming over him and looked up with his eyes bulged out anime style when the ninja saw his opponent free-falling with his claws pointing at him. Naruto panicked frantically before leapt backwards in a considerable distance with the fox landed on the ground, kicking up dust.

Kurama looked to his right when the dust cleared and found a seething Naruto with gritted teeth, staring at him and asked innocently, "What's with the look, Naruto?"

"ARE YOU KIDDING ME WITH THAT, KURAMA? YOU TOOK ADVANTAGE AND TRIED TO KILL ME JUST NOW! I THOUGHT WE WERE FRIENDS?!" replied Naruto frantically with his right arm pointing at the fox.

The multi-tailed beast replied, "You should always be on your guard, Naruto, regardless of anything." The ninja took in the advice and admitted that he did let his guard down when he was looking around the new 'mindscape' and slipped into his Frog Kata stance with his partner smirking at the gesture and crouched. "This isn't like last time, Naruto. You caught me off-guard, but that won't happen again."

"That's where you're wrong, Kurama. It will happen again," said Naruto as yellow irises with toad-like pupils and an orange-reddish pigmentation around his eyes appeared.

Kurama narrowed his eyes upon seeing the transformation, "Hhmm, Sage Mode." He then saw his Jinchuriki draw Tenkaichi and charged at him. Naruto complied as he charged at the fox with his weapon ready and both opponents swung their sword and claw respectively when they got close.

-(10 Minutes Later)-

Naruto planted Tenkaichi into the ground, sat on the ground with his hands supporting him, panting slightly. He looks across from to see Kurama lying down, panting slightly as well. Both Jinchuriki and Tailed Beast had scratches, bruises respectively with the latter deactivating his Sage Mode and his breathing got slightly hard after. Soon the duo started to laugh after one of the best sparring matches they've ever had until the blonde stopped.

"That was a good workout, huh, Kurama?" asked Naruto smiling.

Kurama scoffed. "We could've gone a lot longer and you know it, Naruto."

"Hey, I can't afford to weaken myself in the outside world while I'm training in here," remarked the ninja.

"Naruto, my and your healing abilities can take care of that," replied Kurama, making the shinobi gulped as he just remembered his healing powers as well with the former sighed, "Really, Naruto, you got to start remembering the important things."

The Jinchuriki was about to say something, but he felt an alarm ringing inside his head. "The fuinjutsu outside the perimeter…it's been triggered. I got to check it out." He got up and said, "Kurama, we'll continue this conversation another time," Naruto grabbing Tenkaichi and sheathed it, "I'll be back."

With that, the sage disappeared from the mindscape, leaving the fox to fall asleep in his new 'chambers' inside the cave.

-Real World-

His eyes opened suddenly and quickly rose where he heard Saeko upstairs. Naruto used his shinobi speed to get there and appeared behind both the swordswoman and the gun lover, startling them both.

"Naruto! Oh, man, good timing," said Kohta before firing another round down the street level.

"What's happening?" asked a serious Naruto as he got closer to the balcony. Saeko handed him the binoculars and pointed at a house below across the street. The ninja looked through the binoculars and fixed his stare to the house where he saw Takashi grabbed a little girl and carried her on his back as he jumped on the fences, but found himself surrounded by a huge group of walkers. "

The Sage took the binoculars away from his eyes and set them on the floor before he tighten his headband with Saeko and Kotha noticing with the latter fired another round.

"Naruto?" asked Saeko.

Naruto looks at her, "Saeko, get ready to open the door and the fence for Takashi and the girl. Kohta, you keep maintaining cover and whatever happens…don't let the others out of this apartment. Understand?" He received reluctant nods from the duo before jumping off the balcony, freefalling to the street and leaving two teenagers with anime bulged out eyes. The ninja channeled chakra to his feet and planted them into the wall, sticking to it before scaling downward and leapt into an open space, far from the large group of walkers.

"Okay," Naruto with Tenkaichi drawn in his right arm/sword arm, "Time to call their attention." He used his free arm and put his left index finger and thumb and whistled loudly. The sound echoed in the surrounding area, soon died out with the undead turning away from the duo on the fence and heading towards the origin of the sound.

"Who whistled?" whispered Takashi while carrying the girl. He looked to his right where he saw the blonde swordsman down the street. "He's drawing their attention, so we can get back to the apartment. Hang on, okay?" The girl nodded and the boy jumped off the fence and ran back to the fence with a small white dog following them. He discovered Saeko waiting by the fence and entered through the fence and to the door of the building.

Meanwhile Naruto analyzed the huge group and discovered that the narrow street with the walls enclosed them and smiled as he channeled wind chakra into his blade and swung it horizontally, letting loose a blue crescent-like chakra. The edges of the energy cut the walls, leaving sharp marks on them as the attack make its way to the unsuspecting crowd of the undead, cutting through like paper with blood gushing and splattering on the floor. The chakra attack dissipated after cutting the last walker with Kohta shocked out of his mind.

"Hhm," Naruto looking at his sword, "this sword will come a long way for me." After sheathing Tenkaichi and observing the massive pool of blood flooding the street in front of him, the ninja leapt on the wall and scaled up the wale with his chakra-imbued feet. When he got to the balcony and off the wall, he was grabbed by the arms and being shook like a rag doll again by the gun lover with stars in his eyes.

"Dude, how did you do that? You got to teach me that!" asked Kotha still shaking the ninja until Takashi and Saeko pried him off the blonde who fell to the ground. Both of Naruto's eyes was replaced by spirals as a result from the shaking. Rei joined the commotion along with the now-awaken Shizuka and Saya after hearing Kotha's proclamation.

"What happened to Naruto?" asked Rei while looking at him.

Takashi replied while calming down Kotha, " 'who' is the better question." He leveled his head to the gun lover who finally calmed down.

"Kotha…"said Saya fixing her glasses as she got closer to the former, "why did you shake Naruto again?"

"He did an awesome thing; he unleashed some sort of energy from his sword and it cut through the walkers like nothing. Then he walked on the walls like it's second nature," replied Kohta.

Naruto groaned, shaking his head and stood up while rubbing both of his arms from the grip of his overweight friend until he felt everyone's eyes on him. "Why are you guys looking at me like that?"

"First, your manipulation of the wind, your inhumane speed and now you can walk on walls as well manipulate some energy? I think it's time that you tell us about yourself," said Saya, glaring at the blonde. Naruto felt uncomfortable by the glare from the pink girl, soon noticing everyone staring at him as they wait for an answer.

Naruto was thinking of an answer until he yawned and silently thanked the action. "Sorry, guys," he faked a yawn as well stretch his arms to sell it, "But I'm beat from the walker slaying and you guys still need rest. I'll explain everything…tomorrow."

With that, the ninja walked past the group and went downstairs and slept on the floor with one of the couch pillows and Tenkaichi beside him. Meanwhile, the others were talking about the ninja's notion and agreed that they should sleep as well with Shizuka sleeping with the young girl and the dog.

-(Early Morning)-The Next Day-

Naruto stirred in his sleep as he was having a nightmare about his defeat by the Ten Tails until he felt a wet substance on his cheek. "What's going on?" He opened his eyes and turned his face to the left where a small white puppy standing with its tail wagging. The ninja sit upright in surprise as he stare at the small canine before smiling and petted it as well standing up. He stretched his arms, legs and back, popping a few joints before grabbing Tenkaichi.

He looked at the clock on the wall, "Hm, 7:00 a.m., huh?" The ninja looked around to find the nurse with the little girl and the genius still sleeping on separate couches and assumed that everyone else is asleep as well.

"Hehe, I bet they don't mind me getting some fresh air," his nose picked a unfamiliar and uncomfortable scent, realizing that he smells horrible, "I should probably take a shower first." He grabbed a towel before entering into the bathroom, took off his clothes and enjoyed the heavenly touch of the shower. Five minutes, later he exited the room with his hair freshly dried with his clothes and headband on.

Naruto went up the stairs and found Takashi on the floor, Rei and Saeko on the bed and Kotha on the other side of the room on the floor as well. He quietly walked past them while putting on the flack jacket and opened the door without letting the canine out and closed it, then slung his black sword over his right shoulder before channeling chakra to his feet and leapt high across the street to the building in front of him. Then he continued leaping across buildings as he explores the surrounding area.

He jumped across another building until the former heard his partner calling him and stopped close to the edge, "Kurama, what's up?"

"I've been thinking about this world and the people's attire…I think you should change your ninja gear," replied the fox.

Naruto cocked an eyebrow. "What do you mean by that?" There was nothing wrong with his ninja attire. Or is there?

"I mean that you should blend in with the people here. Your attire clearly makes you stand out from everybody," said Kurama, making the Sage think about it. His ninja attire clearly projects unknown design and with the world in its current state, they can see him as a major threat and will attack him if they get an opportunity.

"Hm, I think you have a good point, Kurama. Thanks, bud," said Naruto receiving an approved growl from the fox. "Looks like I have some shopping to do…can't believe I just said that." He leapt onto few several buildings before stopping on a building that was across from a clothing store and a few walkers around. "What a way to start the day…hey, I just made a rhyme, hehehe."

Naruto jumped off the building and landed in crouch while drawing Tenkaichi with its chain and the Uzumaki symbol dangling, making a small noise. The walkers turned their heads to the origin of the sound and started walking towards the smirking ninja. He pointed his sword at an overweight walker and said, "Let's dance, tubby."

As he said that, the ninja charged, swung his blade downward on the walker, splitting it in half. Then he swung upward for an overhead strike on another walker, taking its head and spun quick to kick the third walker that lunged at him, sending it to crash through the store's display window.

He walked towards the last walker that was crawling towards due to having no legs and had a sad look as he watched the once-alive person crawl towards him before holding Tenkaichi's blade downward with both hands on the hilt and thrust it through the walker's head.

The Sage sighed as he pulled the blade from the head with his sword arm, causing blood to flow beneath the skull. He swiftly flicked his sword to the right, causing a minor blood splatter on the street before walking over the body and to the store. The blonde ninja pulled out a kunai from his hip pouch in a reverse grip and readied his sword as he entered the building with his ninja senses on high alert.

"Okay, now where are the clothes section for the men?" asked Naruto to himself as he walked up the stairs that led to the second level where he found clothes for men. "Bingo," as he put away the kunai and stabbed the Tenkaichi to the ground next to him to look for clothing that will compose his new attire.

A few minutes passed by as Naruto set his ninja attire in front of him and said, "There we go. This should make me blend in with this world." He sported dark blue jeans, a black belt, a black t-shirt and a orange jacket while still sporting his sandals and headband. Also he putted the hip pouch safely hidden under the jacket and grabbed a medium scroll, opened it with a fuinjutsu sealing in the center and put the ninja attire on it.

Naruto made a few seals before the clothes disappeared in a puff of smoke, scrolled it up and put it inside the pouch. Lastly, he grabbed Tenkaichi and sprinted out of the store and jumped onto a building.

The Jinchuriki finally made it back to the apartmen and quietly opened the slide door, stepping inside and closed it, "Okay, now I should make something to…" He stopped when he smelled a tempting aroma coming from the kitchen and sprinted with a third of his speed, causing the window glass to break. Naruto found delicious plates of eggs, bacon, sausage, muffins and juince and was about to stuff them into his face until he felt something staring at him, so he turned his head to his left.

He saw Saeko, Rei, Saya and Shizuka in their outfits, with slight modifications, staring at him with shock expressions, then turned his head to his right where Takashi, Kohta and the young girl was staring at him with the same expression. "Hehehe, hi, guys. Good Morning," said Naruto sheepishly.

"Hey, morning, Naruto. Nice clothes," replied Kotha.

"Thanks, man," replied the ninja as he watched the chubby kid reaching for an bacon but was stopped when Saya hit his hand with a spoon.

"OW, that hurts, Takagi," complained Kotha, rubbing his hand while looking at the pink haired girl.

"Yes, it should. So, don't start grabbing food yet. You wait until everyone is at the table," said Takagi picking up one of the plates with Saeko, Shizuka, and Rei did the same and walked over to a table with enough chairs for all of them, including the young girl.

"All right, everyone. Dig in," said Rei happily.

"Don't need to tell me twice," replied Naruto as he chow on the eggs, bacon and sausages, then he noticed the girl, "What's your name?"

"My name is Alice," replied the girl all cheery with everyone else smiled. Several minutes later, the group was sitting on their seats, feeling relaxed as their stomachs are filled with food that will help them survive a bit longer, then Saya gave Shizuka a subtle nod and the doctor told the young girl to take a shower and pointed where the bathroom was located.

As the girl was out of hearing distance and in the shower, everyone had their eyes on the blonde ninja who was chewing on a bacon when he saw the stares from everyone and swallowed it. Naruto sighed and asked, "What do you want to know?"

"First, your ability to manipulate the wind and your speed," replied Saya.

The Sage nodded, "Well, I used my chakra to control the wind." He saw everyone giving him the 'what the hell are you talking about' look. "You don't know what that is, huh? I should've figured."

"What is this chakra?" asked Rei.

"Chakra is a combination of the body's physical energy and spiritual energy within every living being. Everybody in my world-," Naruto gulped when he accidently slipped the last two words, and everyone heard it.

"My world?" asked Takagi suspicious.

Naruto lowered his head a little, "…I'm not from this world." He saw everyone's widen until the gun lover's eyes turned into huge stars with the latter popping the next question.

"Are you a superhuman?" asked the excited Hirano.

The Sage shook his head and continued, "I guess you could say that, but I'm really not. You see, my people and I can use chakra to increase our strength, speed, endurance, stamina as well techniques."

Takashi raised an eyebrow, "Techniques?"

"There are three types of skills that the ninja and I myself use in my world; Ninjutsu, Genjutsu and Taijutsu," the leader's eyes widen along with everyone and the stars in Kotha's eyes got bigger, "Taijutsu is basically hand-to-hand combat. Genjutsu is the field of using illusions to confuse opponents and ninjutsu requires us to use hand-seals and chakra to perform supernatural feats as well manipulate the elements around us to gain advantage during battle like when I use the wind to blow away the walkers on the bridge."

Naruto continued explaining, "This wouldn't have been possible without the Father of All Ninja; the Sage of the Six Paths. He defeated the most powerful demon in my world…the Ten Tailed Beast." The teenagers felt chills in their spines when they heard the name, "The Ten Tails was said to be the creator of all life in my world, but its revival also meant the end of all life as well. The Sage split the beast's chakra into nine separate beings called the Tailed Beasts and gave them names; Shukaku, Matatabi, Isobu, Son Goku, Kokuo, Saiken, Chomei, Gyuki and lastly Kurama." He continued about the descendants of the Six Paths, the clans and formations of the Hidden Villages, the Fourth Shinobi World War and his training with the Six Paths including his mission, heritage and status as Kurama's Jinchuriki.

Everyone's minds were blown away when they heard of this revelation and had the same question, but Takagi beat them to it. "Can you teach us how to use chakra?"

The Jinchuriki shook his head, "No. You see, we were trained at a young age to develop our chakra pathways and chakra circulatory system, making them stronger over time to use chakra properly. If you use chakra now, you'd die."

"So you're only going to be here for two months, then you move onto another world to retrieve one of these Sealing Keys?" asked Kotha, receiving a nod from the ninja.

"Yes, but don't worry. I'm keeping my promise to get you guys to a safe and secure facility," said Naruto. Everyone's brow was cocked when they heard the last few words.

"What do you mean 'a safe and secure facility'? This is safe for us," said Shizuka.

"This apartment is only temporary. We need to move to a much more secured place. How long do you think those things will barge through the doors?" asked the ninja. Takashi thought about it and knew that Naruto brought a good point, plus he and Rei need to find their parents and with the ninja's help, they have a greater chance of success of finding them.

"He's right," everyone looked at Takashi, "We need to get out of here and cross the river. Also we need to find our parents." With that, the group unanimously agreed and stated to meet outside by the Humvee in 10 minutes.

-(20 Minutes Later)-

The group met by the Humvee with the girls putting the weapons inside the vehicle and Shizuka starting the engine, bringing it to life. Everyone climbed aboard and the blonde doctor stepped on the gas, drove through the fence with the gun lover giving a loud 'whoo'.

Meanwhile Naruto was thinking to himself about how his friends took in the news and smiled to himself as he closed his eyes for a nap, not noticing Saeko looking at him and a smile appeared on her face as well.

(Naruto's Universe)

-Somewhere On The Ocean-

There was a huge island with equally-sized mountains, huge dead trees and dark clouds hovered over it. In the center of the island, there lies a creature sleeping with its tails by it-self. The creature's eye opened slightly, revealing multiple Sharigan tomoes, growling as if it was disturbed by an unknown force or annoyance.
