Chapter 1: A New Start (New Edition)

Naruto Uzumaki, hero of the Leaf, Sage of Mount Myoboku and host of all nine tailed beasts find himself travelling through the dark portal, barely clinging to last of his conciousness. Kaguya Ōtsutsuki as a last act of revenge opened a dark portal that sucked him in despite his best efforts. He could feel Kurama trying to preserve his body but the portal was ripping it apart. He had never felt this much pain in all his life, even not when Madara extracted Kurama out of him.

"Just hang in there Naruto!" Kurama yelled sending his dense chakra in his coils trying to keep him alive.

The presence of Sasuke was still on his radar due to him having other half of Sage's chakra, Rikudō Yin power, but it was getting weaker and weaker until he could no longer sense the last Uchiha at all. A ray of hope appeared in the form of white light on far end of the portal but his body gave up, not being able to bear the pain as the darkness engulfed him.

Bael Territory: 1 Month Later

Bael Clan, also referred to as 'The Great King', was the highest ranking clan in the 72 Pillars with just the house of four great Satans above it. It was founded by one of the first devils, Zekram Bael and was famous for having a bloodline dubbed as 'Power of destruction'. The power, as the name suggests, completely obliterates anyone caught in it.

At the moment deep within the forest, a young woman appearing to be in her late teens could be seen panting on the ground with sweat dripping from her face and clothes tattered slightly.

Venelana Bael was a beautiful girl looked to be in her late teens with flexen (brown) hair, that reached the middle of her back and curl outward at the ends, violet eyes, a perfect heart shape face and a very voluptuous figure. She was clad in black dress with red trimmings at the moment.

'Damn it! Why it's so hard to compress my [Power of destruction]?' The devil princess thought.

She tilted her head to the side to find the same infuriating blond boy she found a month ago, practicing his calligraphy. He rarely converse with others outside of learning something. Even though he was not that open to others, she had to admit that he was quite handsome.

The blond stood at impressive 5.8 feet tall with lean yet muscular build, perfect blend between speed and strength. He had cut his spiky golden blond hair short and wore a black headband, with a metal plate that has insignia that resembles a leaf, on his forehead. His deep cerulean blue eyes completely focused on the scroll he was moving his brush on. The three whisker-like marks on his cheeks plus the short canines gives him a feral look in her eyes.

She had found him on death's doorsteps, lying in the puddle of his own blood inside the forest and took him back home to give him treatment. Nonetheless, she and all the healers were amazed at how his wounds were regenerating and in only two weeks he was up and running.

She also find out that he did not know a thing about supernatural world. Another thing that startled her was the strange language he spoke; she had never heard a language he spoke before but thankfully could understand him. It made her a little apprehensive at first but so far he has not given her a reason to doubt him. He spends most of his day reading notes and books from the large scroll he has or just learning devil language from one of her maids or butlers.

'What is it with him?' She gave him a wary look. Sometimes she doubted if he was straight? Not even once she caught him looking at her, even subtly nor at any other maid except when he was learning or helping them around.

Yet the way he ignores her made her feel a little furious. She was not used to being ignored. Normally people would be happy to be just in her presence alone but here he is, not even paying attention to her.

"Who does he think he is?..." she muttered under her breath before returning to her training.

Naruto in the meanwhile was lost in his own thoughts. So far from what he had learned from Venelana and the various servants working in her manor; he was in a place called underworld, a place where different supernatural beings live but the most prominent among them were the devils and fallen angels. The devils were lead by four Satans while Azazel, a twelve winged fallen angel, was the Governor of Grigori, the fallen angel territory in the underworld.

Naruto in the meanwhile was lost in his own thoughts. He couldn't do anything chakra taxing for the time being. Kurama and other had told him that his chakra coils were strained so he should avoid using too much chakra for now. So to pass the time, he decided to learn some Fuinjutsū from the books and scrolls left to him by his parents.

After Jiraya died, Tsunade Baa-chan had given him his inheritance after Nagato wrecked the Leaf. Seeing that they were on the verge of war, he decided to seal the scroll in a storage seal on his left arm and open it after war but he never get that chance in his home world.

Shaking these thoughts away. He get up and looked at his brown haired savior. She was trying so hard to control her cool powers.

"Your energy is tensed." He commented, sealing his calligraphy kit in a very large scroll. Venelana looked over her shoulder with a raised brow.

"Huh?" She gave him a confused look. Did he just talked to her? "Excuse me, did you say something to me?"

He gave her a blank look. It should be obvious as there was no one here beside them. "Yes Venelana, I can sense your energy is tense, you need to calm down first and then manipulate it." He replied calmly. "A clear mind will help you in controlling your power better."

Naruto sat down in a meditative position and closed his eyes with Venelana doing the same.

"Now just think about what makes you feel calm and take deep breaths." He told her before entering his mindscape.

Mindscape

He appeared inside his mindscape and find all the tailed beasts circling around him.

"What do you need gaki?" Sun Goku asked lazily.

"Do you guys by any chance knows about how to master different elements? I only trained my wind element a bit and don't know how to train my affinity for others." He jumped on top of Matatabi's head and sat down.

"Each one of us have the knowledge you need to train and master advance chakra nature manipulation." Kurama creaked open one of his eyes while his tails move lazily behind him.

"You do?" The blond looked at them from top of Matatabi's head.

"We spend more than a century sealed in different Jinchurikkis." Gyukki stated. "We have seen and learn a thing or two from our time there."

The others nodded their head. All of them had learned quite a lot from their time in the different Jinchurikkis.

"You should also learn to use our unique elements. Having a variety of skill under your belt will help." Kokuo spoke in her ever calm voice.

"Yeah that's a good idea. You can start from my magnet release." Shukaku said before he begans to laugh like a maniac, causing others to take a step back from him. "Yes! I can see it clearly. We crushing these useless flesh of bags and bury them under sea of sand."

"Shut up you damn tanuki!" Kurama yelled at the sand spirit. "We don't need a whole faction behind us for slaughtering their own."

"What's wrong with that you dumb-fox! We can easily crush them..." Shukaku said loudly. "... together."

"Will you two shut up!" Isobu sent a glare towards the two. "I'm trying to sleep here."

Matatabi just shook her head at her sibling's antics.

Later: Vanelana's Manor

Naruto gave Venelana a nervous look as she glared at him. Both were sitting on a large table filled with food and the devil was glaring at him after observing his abysmal table manners. She wanted to thank him for helping her earlier so it was the first time she was sharing a meal with the blond boy.

"Come on Venelana. Let me eat already." He whined but she stayed firm. Being born into the noble house of Bael, she was raised with manners and etiquettes drilled into her mind. So she could not stand when someone ignores all their manners.

"I will." She started in a low voice. "The moment you start using proper manners." Naruto mumbled something under his breath.

"What was that?" She raised a brow.

"I don't know how to use these things." He pointed towards the fork and knives. This cause some butlers and maids to snicker, making him look down at his feet in utter embarrassment.

He had practically raised himself after the orphanage kicked him out and except the third hokage, no one took interest in him. Ichiraku's helped little but they had their own shop to run.

Venelana narrowed her eyes at the maids and butlers, shutting them up. He should have told her about this sooner. Getting up from her seat, she signaled the others to leave the room and took the seat next to Naruto.

"It's no problem." She said softly, making him look at her. "Here. Let me show you how to use these." She grabbed the fork and knife before showing him how to use both properly.

"I like her." Kokuo said.

'Shhhh. Let me concentrate guys.' He said as he tried to use the tools correctly.

Xox

Venelana along with her childhood friend, Layla Phenex looked at the strange blond gazing at the sky of the underworld with a solemn look on his face. They were sitting in the garden, enjoying tea while he was lying on the ground at some distance.

"So he is the boy you find in the forest?" The blond woman asked, giving a keen look to Naruto. "Well I would admit he certainly looks like a Phenex. Are you sure he is not a devil or a half-breed?"

Venelana shook her head. "I cannot sense any form of energy from him but i had seen his regeneration." She spoke, tilting her head to stare at the oblivious blond. "It means he must have some kind of energy inside him too."

Layla nodded her head, regeneration is not possible if one doesn't possess any kind of energy.

"Your clan is going to call for you in some days. The old Maou Faction is losing ground slowly." Spoke Layla, taking a sip from her tea. "I think in a year or two, this civil war will end."

"I don't think so. Rizevim Livan Lucifer and my grandfather have yet to join the battle and you know how powerful they are."

"Now now Venelana-chan, I'm sure your dear nephew and his friends can defeat them." The Phenex said reassuringly.

"Sirzechs and his friends are strong but I don't think they will be able to defeat both of them at the same time." She replied with a sigh. "Not to forget that Zech-chan has yet to master his 'True Form' unlike Zane Bael. Even Zekram-sama is wary of him before he left."

Layla noddes her head. She knew that if both or even one 'Super Devil' on the other side had decided to take active part in the civil war, then the results would be vastly different from what they were now.

Zane Bael, widely known as 'Master of Destruction' was the third devil after the first Lucifer and his son Rizevim to go past the limits of an ultimate-class devil and become a 'Super Devil' in history. He held no equal in his mastery of 'Power of Destruction', but it was not this that made him feared. It was his ruthlessness and sharp mind that made him a dangerous person. Even Zekram knew better than to anger his first born.

"So what are you going to do about him?" Her friend pointed towards Naruto. "You know that your clan don't like even low-class devils and if they know about his regeneration then..." she trailed off.

"... they will try to use him somehow to further strengthen the clan." Venelana frowned, it was possible.

He was not aligned with any house as of yet. So no one can stop the Bael Clan to do what they want with him. Moreover, he was in their territory at the moment.

"I don't know..." the brown haired devil said. "Maybe i should keep his existence a secret for now." She pondered this option for a moment.

Unknown to two devils, Naruto could hear their conversation due to his heightened senses.

'So I should leave hun?' He thought.

"It's the best option for now." Kurama said with a grunt. "Just leave this place and we will continue your training out there. You can also learn more about this world that way." He explained.

'I never repaid my debt to her for saving my life and giving me a shelter.' He appeared inside his mindscape and looked at the massive fox.

"I don't know." The kyuubi said lazily. "It's your problem not mine." He yawned and closed his eyes. "Now begone, i want to catch some sleep." With that he throws him out of his own mind.

'Asshole...' muttered Naruto.

"You can always come back and help her with something important." Saiken spoke softly. "Once you master your powers, you will be safer, Naruto-kun." He smiled at the slug

'Thanks Saiken.' He said, closing his eyes.

Xox

"There it's finished now." He looked at the beautiful bracelet he made for Venelana as a parting gift.

It was shining silver in colour with her name crafted around a glowing violet gem.

"When are you planning to leave?" Chomei asked in a bored tone. All his siblings were asleep at the moment.

"Tonight." He replied, placing the bracelet in his pocket. "Hopefully I'll get a clue from those books as to where i should head next." He had two clones reading books on the history of devils and underworld in the library, not that anyone knows about it.

"It's good, having some knowledge as to where we should go will help." He nodded his head and left to find Venelana.

He found her on terrace, overlooking the gardens that surrounded her mansion. He stopped and could not help but admire her beauty. She was easily the most beautiful woman he has met so far in his life.

"Pervert." Chomei muttered teasingly.

He blushed slightly and quickly cut the link between him and the tailed beasts.

"Hey there." He said awkwardly.

Venelana looked over her shoulder and give him a smile in return. "Hello Naruto. What are you doing here?" She asked.

"I just came to give you this." He reached into his pocket and took out the bracelet.

"There." He held the bracelet towards her. "I made it myself as a gift for saving my life and giving me a shelter."

She looked at the bracelet for a second before accepting it. She had to admit it was beautiful.

"The beautiful violet gem remind me of your eyes..." he commented offhandedly making her blush slightly.

She turned her head to the side to see him gazing at the sky and thanked Satan that he was not looking at her. She was not used to people complimenting her eyes. He is the first one who did this and from the looks of it, didn't even realize how he just indirectly complimented her.

"Ummm... thank you Naruto." She said. "It's beautiful." She smiled, wearing it on her left arm.

He gave her a slight smile as both stood there in comfortable silence, not knowing what to talk about. "You know." he started making her look at him. "You never told me about your family. Do you have any siblings? What about your parents or even grandparents?" She noticed some sparkle in his eyes when he mentioned about family.

"Well you never asked before." She replied before a small smile appeared on her face. "I do have two siblings, one brother and one sister. My elder sister married a devil from another noble family and has one child, Sirzechs. He is strong, in fact only a few can match him in combat." She spoke with a little enthusiasm, after all she was the one to teach him how to control his 'Power of destruction'. "While my brother is still single, so am i."

"You don't have a boyfriend?" He asked curiosly.

"Why?" A teasing smile appeared on her face. "You going to test your chances with me, Naruto-kun~" she wanted to make him blush but it failed as he only gave her a confused look. "(Sigh) I never find anyone interesting besides there was a war going on back then between the three factions." He nodded his head.

"What about you? Don't you have a family or girlfriend?" She questioned.

He noticed that she avoided the subject about her parents but didn't point it out.

"I lost my parents the night I was born." He smiled sadly, remembering both his parents. At least he got a chance to fight alongside his father in the war and meet his mother while he was on the turtle island.

"Oh I'm sorry..." he just gave her a smile.

"Don't worry I have come to terms with it a long time ago." He replied. "As for your second question. I was not popular with girls back home. There was this one girl named Hinata that confessed her love to me but I never get a chance to discover my feelings about her." He hopes that she find someone better than him. Someone that will love her unconditionally.

She noticed his sad expression and chose to stay silent.

"Forget about me. Tell me something about yourself, i mean your likes, dislikes, hobbies, dreams etc."

"There is not much but since you asked, I will indulge you. I like reading about the history of my kind, my favorite food is roasted meat or anything that has meat in it, dislikes hmmm... some devils from other noble houses, those who looked down on me or my servants, hobbies are training and collecting rare books and dreams..." she stopped for a moment. "...well for now it's to see the end of current civil war."

"I hope the war soon ends. In my opinion wars are pointless." He muttered, images of all those shinobi who died in front of him began to flash through his mind.

"Speaking through experience?" She asked.

"Yeah." He replied in a low voice, gazing at the sky.

"You never told me anything about you. I mean what are you? Where do you live and how you ended up in the underworld?"

He contemplated about telling her the truth for a moment before replying. "I was fighting in a war and got myself trapped in some portal as a last act of revenge from the opponent i was fighting. That portal leads me here."

Venelana's eyes widened slightly. "So you are..." she trailed off seeing him nodding his head.

"Yes, I'm not from this world Venelana. It's not even linked to this world from what little information i gathered from here." He spoke, closing his eyes.

"Is there anyway you can go back?" She questioned.

"Not one that i know. I have no technique to travel between dimensions and even if i had, i don't think it would be useful." He replied honestly with a small frown.

"As to what i am? I'm what you would call a shinobi."

"So you are a ninja." He nodded his head. "Tell me Venelana, do you know what true strength is?" She raised a brow.

"True strength?"

"Yeah I mean what is it you fight for?"

"That's easy." she started. "I fight for sake of winning and glory. I want to make my clan proud."

"That's a good reason but it's not true strength. A friend long time ago told me that one can only achieve true strength when he/she is fighting for people they love and cherish. True strength lies in protecting the ones close to you." he gave her a small smile, turning around.

"Anyway I'm going to my room. See you later." With that he walked back to his room.

"Goodnight..." she muttered with a smile. "Protecting the ones precious to you huh? You are indeed a interesting man Naruto Uzumaki."

Xox

"So where are we going?" Kurama asked.

Naruto was hopping from one tree to another at blinding speeds. The large scroll with his possessions, strapped to his back.

Sneaking past the guards at the manor was a child's play for him.

'We are going to that familiar forest. I don't think anyone will come here in the midst of civil war. We can train there.' He replied.

Later

"What are you doing here in my domain, worm?" Naruto's eyebrow twitched slightly.

He looked at the huge western dragon with pale blue scales and huge wings. It really was annoying him with it's needless insults.

"I told you i accidentally fell into that hole and it lead me here." He replied with a huff.

The dragon looked at him for a moment before it let out a roar and tried to smash him with it's tail. It was only through years of training and fighting some of the most powerful ninjas in his world that he managed to avoid it.

"Hey what the hell?! I told you it was a mistake." The dragon in reply take a deep breath and let out a stream of fire from it's mouth.

"Use my chakra, Naruto." Isobu said, not once sounding lazy.

'Thanks Isobu.' He take a deep breath before blowing huge amount of water from his mouth.

The two attacks collided, filling the room with steam.

"Why are you attacking me? Just point me in the right direction and I'll leave." Yelled naruto jumping back to avoid being crushed under the huge claw.

"I'm one of the five Dragon-kings, Tiamat the Chaos Karma Dragon." It introduced itself with a snarl.

"You will pay for interrupting my rest." It's voice turned demonic at the end.

"Kurama!" Naruto shouted, waiting for the yellow flames like chakra covering him but it never happened.

"You are your own kit!" Kurama replied and he could feel him giving a sinister smile all the way from inside the seal.

"Get ready mortal!" The dragon launched towards him.

"Uh oh..." Naruto muttered.

~Chapter End~
