AN: So, apparently it's SSV Normandy and not SSR like I thought, and technically it's SR-3 now since Naruto and Liara fixed it. Thank you, Neo-Shepard for your review.

Chapter 11

Andraste couldn't believe what Naruto had just told her. Having sex with the enemy was one thing, but the other thing was a bit too much. "Was she really, you know?"

"I've never been so disappointed before in my entire life, and I'm not exaggerating; sure it felt nice but aside from that…" he groaned; Cosmina had been the only one to get release. "She was so eager, I thought that it might be nice since I didn't want to go to Haru since that would've been awkward." Haru was his friend, so casual sex wasn't something that he could just ask for. Still, his gaze had been lingering lately, and Liara was a definite no. "I shouldn't come to you with lewd problems like this, it's really inappropriate."

"It's fine, you can always tell me what's bothering you."

"Thanks, I can't wait till you're able to come into the real world." He smiled. "There's so much that I want to show you."

"I can't wait either." She grasped his hand. "It really does sound amazing out there, even with the dangers." The reaper, they had no idea where it was, but where Naruto found it, he would make sure to tear it apart, seal every piece of it, and then throw the seal into the sun. Little did they know, the reapers influence was spreading fast and that fight would come very soon.

1 Week Later – Ban Tribe Territory

Lucky was all Naruto could say about the situation at hand. The wife and daughter of Bols had somehow found out about what was going on, and they wanted in. Naruto had no reason to refuse them so he had assigned them to a room on the Civ Transport. "Mr. Uzumaki." The wife called. "I know that this may seem out of line, but could you possibly convince my husband to join us; please before he gets himself killed."

"Bols…" the only family man in the Jeagers. "I'm going to the Capital again anyway, so I can go pick him up." Bols was either going to come willingly or Naruto would use Charm to make him. Little did he know, he was going to get there just in time to see chaos unfold.

Empire Territory – Capital

Naruto had teleported in the Jeagers Base without warning, startling all of them. "Hello everyone!" he walked up to Bols. "You're Bols right?" the masked man simply nodded in affirmation. "Good, your wife and daughter sent me here to retrieve you."

"My wife?" his fists clenched.

"Don't worry, they're absolutely safe." He said. "Now, you can come willingly or I can just—"

"Take me to them." Bols said.

"That was quick." He said.

"Hold on a second, Bols, he could be lying!" Wave said. "This guy just appeared out of nowhere and—" the sound of a massive explosion caught everyone's attention. And then, something roared; screaming erupted seconds later.

"What was that?" He put his hand on Bols shoulder. "Teleport." The older man was gone, Naruto didn't plan of endangering him. The blonde went outside and what he saw made him pale. Standing at 30 meters tall was a humanoid behemoth, it had 6 glowing blue eyes, pitch black claws, blood red scales, and jagged fangs. Upon closer inspection, Naruto saw that there was glowing blue tech inside of it. A hybrid. "Well, no reason to—" a massive spear of ice was sent at the beast only for the shield to take the attack. Soldiers from the ground began shooting, but their bullets did nothing. The beast opened its mouth and from it shot a massive blast of energy.

It missed the Palace, its target, but the explosion where it landed was utterly insane. All that remained was a massive crater, nothing else. "The reaper made this thing?" the creature began to mow down the soldiers until Wave attacked the shield with Grand Chariot, but to no avail. The creature continued to rampage. "Damnit, you really came at a bad time." He revealed his dojutsu. "This move likely won't work on the Reaper, but you're just the right size." he ran up to it. "My ultimate technique." He slammed his hand onto the ground. "Everyone run!" the ground turned pitch black, looking almost like a void. "Run!" they did as they were told.

Below were stars that shined in the dark void. "Star Graveyard!" a blue sun was visible and it looked extremely close; this was because it was extremely close. The heat began to burst out though not the flames. "Fall to your death!" the beast did fall through the large portal as did the buildings that were caught in range. The creature let out a roar of absolute terror as it fell into the void and then into the flames that would consume it and leave nothing behind. Naruto looked to his now burned hands, the heat was affecting him as well. "Close…" thankfully the portal dis so without incident. 'Kurama…'

'I know, we barely had control over it.' The fox stated. Despite how it looked, Naruto had been struggling to keep himself from falling inside and preventing the vacuum of space from sucking everything inside. Worse yet, the portal could've grown larger. Naruto stood up and looked to his arms, everything up to his elbows were covered in fourth degree burns. Needless to say, he was in immense pain. Kurama kicked his healing factor into overdrive.

"I've never felt this kind if pain before." He was holding back his urge to scream in absolute pain. He turned to leave only to bump into someone. He looked up to see that it was General Budo. "Well shit." He was at a disadvantage until his arms fully healed. The older man stared at him for what felt like hours. "Uh, hi?"

"What was that?"

"What?"

"That technique you used, was that the work of a teigu?" he pointed to Naruto's now covered up eye.

"Oh, no this is my normal eye, I've never used a teigu before." He stated. "Star Graveyard is a move that I developed myself, it's kind of unstable, but it's pretty damn cool don'tcha think?" he asked. Budos gaze went to Naruto's arms which were regenerating at an unnatural pace. "Now, if you don't mind I have to get going, I'd rather not stay in a such a dangerous place longer than I have to."

"Aw, leaving so soon?" Naruto recognized that voice, and that power. It was Dorothea who walked up behind him and wrapped her arm around him. "I missed you." She was stronger than before, but Naruto had to wonder how she was still alive, the nature chakra should've turned her into a frog statue. "Especially after you beat the holy hell out of Syura." Budo had heard about that and had been genuinely surprised. "Come on, let's catch up friend." She pulled him along.

'Her body is gathering more and more nature chakra, but it's very slow and not much.' Kurama said. 'I don't know how she's still alive, but she likely has access to some sage abilities.' Dorothea was dangerous. 'We have to kill her.' Not in the open of course.

Empire Territory – Capital – Dorothea's Lab

"Sorry about the mess." There were papers scattered all around and a lot of equipment that she'd been using, including the corpses of those she'd experimented on. They'd been turned into frog statues. "I've been trying to unlock the secrets of this new power, this energy that flows through my body but as you can see my test subjects turn into frog statues." She said.

"You tried introducing a foreign substance into their body, this outcome was guaranteed from the start." He stated. "But, you're an exception for some reason and I'd like to know why." He said while examining the statues. The process was oddly painless, but they must've been scared. Dorothea walked to his side, Naruto turned to her. "Why are you special?" took her arms and examined them, they had a strange feel to them. "Body modifications." Without any warning, he proceeded to inspect her body using the limited medical techniques he'd learned from Tsunade. "A good bit of them too…" he opened her mouth. "A teigu, that allowed you to suck my blood and some of my life force…now I get it." He let go of her mouth. "I may not look it, but I'm sort of a scientist myself when it comes to technology." He said. "I even fused my future second in command with his teigu, while giving him extremely advanced replacement limbs, and an eye." He bragged.

"That so?" she asked. "Well, I managed to create the famed philosopher stone, I made two in fact." For the next 3 hours they compared her alchemy to his advanced technology; to see which one was better and more sophisticated.

'Setting aside the fact that she's committed abhorrent acts against her own for years without remorse, she's pretty nice to talk to.' She was very smart as well, so she could keep up with half of the things he was saying. 'Why does she have to be part of Wild Hunt, it's such a waste!' he internally exclaimed in frustration. 'Wait a second.' An idea came to mind. "You know there's only so much you can see on this world, it'll all get boring eventually as people make the same mistakes over and over."

"Alright, what're you offering?" she asked.

"I literally stole the ultimate teigu from under everyone's noses, the Empire is going to fall pretty soon, Wild Hunt is going to be wiped out before then, and you'll be on the losing side if you stay here." He said. "Losing you would be a huge loss so I want you to join me." He took her hands. "I can show you what lies beyond the stars, you can be the very first alchemist of this world to ascend higher than your predecessors." He said. What do you say, want to do what those before you never imagined was possible?"

"You're a real smooth talker you know." Dorothea said. "But, what do you want from me exactly?"

"Your eternal loyalty." The blonde said. Dorothea wasn't like Tatsumi or the others, he needed assurance and incentive that would make her loyal to him. Something to keep her in line. 'Wait a second!' He put his wrist forward. "Go ahead." He would make sure that none of his chakra would get siphoned. As expected, she bit into his flesh and began feasting on his blood. "Uzumaki longevity, members of my clan are very long lived, but unlike others I'll stop aging." Dorothea froze, if what Naruto was saying was true then her dream might just be in her jaws.

'Replicate, I need to replicate such effects and then apply them to myself.' He got her and she was very aware of this fact, but she didn't care. Releasing her fangs, she licked the rest of the blood off of Naruto's wrist; once more she could feel her sexual desires come flooding out, soaking her panties again. 'I could be young forever, I could live forever!' she could wouldn't have to worry about draining people anymore, except for more strength. She could learn so much if she succeeded. Dorothea looked to Naruto. "So, your eternal loyalty."

The Next Day – Ban Tribe Territory – SSV Normandy

Dorothea had to admit that she was awe struck by the Normandy, it was definitely one of the most amazing things she'd ever seen. Then there was Liara and Haru, actual aliens just like Naruto, all three were from different planets. EDI was beyond her understanding that was for sure. She was currently examining Tatsumi though the assassin wasn't exactly comfortable. "He told me about what he'd done to you, but this is so much more impressive than I thought." She said.

"So you're part of Wild Hunt?"

"I was part of Wild Hunt, now I'm part of this ever growing crew; I've given everything I know about the Empire to the Revolutionary Army." She stated. "The Tyrant was said to be able to adapt and evolve."

"Yeah it could, and now so can I." he could do things that neither the Tyrant nor Incursio could do. "You do realize what Naruto is doing right? What his goal is?"

"Of course." She stated. "He told me in great detail along with the consequence of my betraying him." She touched her neck. "He was very clear about it." She said.

"Good, and you're aware that in two days, the members of Wild Hunt will be executed?" She looked to him with a smile.

"Of course, and I really don't give a shit about idiots like them." Naruto's value outweighed theirs by a thousand times. "Although, I wonder about the Jeagers since two of their members have defected." She said. Plus, Bols took his teigu as well.

"Esdeath must be pretty mad right now." This was a huge understatement as they would soon find out.
