For the past year, one concept of Fanfiction has just felt fascinating to me. The idea of a Naruto and a DBZ crossover. I felt that these two series had an almost endless potential for a combination. That their fighting styles could be shown together as something enlightening to both series. That their characters would have an interesting time in the same universe. That the Power levels of the Naruto series so conveniently left off where those of DBZ began.

Yet after searching heavily throughout the site, I couldn't find any good Naruto/DBZ crossovers who's power scheme I could even remotely agree with. Basically, I had decided to try my own. After I started, the words just flew onto the page. I got almost as excited about writing this as I would be about reading something of this nature.

I didn't want it to be too simple of a meeting between verses so this story will probably be very slow going and primarily Naruto-based during the beginning. It will include a couple (comparatively weak) original characters just to smooth the two verses together and the crossover will result in an incredibly AU verse on both sides of the spectrum. I hope you like it anyway.

Please Review as well. :D

It's what I live for.

It was during the opening months of age 760 when the three Saiyans (Vegeta, Nappa and Raditz) returned to Freeza's headquarters after having conquered the planet of Shikk. They were immensely proud to have done that, especially within the three days it took. The conflict had not been without challenge and to properly quell the populace, Vegeta himself had to unleash and energy blast of (almost) full power upon the poor planet, leaving a giant crater on the surface which would now be visible on almost any picture of it.

The point was that the planet was conquered and they had done an amazing job at it. Less than half of the population were dead and those who were left alive would only be singing praises for Freeza from now on. All in all, they expected great praise for their accomplishment. As the three of them knelt down in their boss's throne room, and Vegeta explained the situation, they couldn't help but smirk to themselves for a job well done. Sadly, their mood was about to be ruined.

"Hmm? Did you really take three days? I'm surprised it took so long…" Freeza said offhandedly, interrupting Vegeta.

Both Nappa and Raditz gaped in horror at the arrogant words towards their Prince. People didn't insult their King. Vegeta was their Ruler: the most powerful among their remaining kind. He was a galactic warlord. The sort of which could even blow up small planets. Nobody had ever mocked him so openly before.

However, despite whatever misgivings his subordinates had about his temper, Vegeta was not so easily enraged. So despite the… criticism… Freeza gave him and his subordinates, Vegeta was not about to attack him. No sir…

"Well we'd like to assure you that the planet is mostly unharmed…" Vegeta restarted humbly, "… And that…" Vegeta didn't bother finishing his sentence. A vein popped on his forehead when he realized that neither Freeza nor his attendants were even listening to him but were instead laughing at his expense.

The laughter continued for an uncomfortably long amount of time. Of course it would be like this… Of course they'd be teased by their masters… Neither Vegeta nor his subordinates responded, but instead merely waited for the meeting's conclusion. This had been one of their first official missions and they were just going to collect their reward before leaving. They were already sick of their master's presence.

"So you conquered the planet as I asked?" Freeza finally said after his laughter died down. "Very well then. You may go away now. Maybe you'll get another mission in a few days."

There was a pause as the Saiyans waited for Emperor Freeza to say something more, but their scorn turned to outrage when their Emperor just waved them off, gesturing at them to get a move on.

Nappa was the first one to lose his temper.

"Wait!" he yelled in outrage. "Is that the only thing you're going to say to us?" Freeza's goons turned towards the Saiyan in anger flaring their massively larger Ki's. "We just crushed the hopes of an entire planet for you! We just annihilated almost half of their people. In only three days, we added over a billion loyal followers to your intergalactic empire. And you won't even congratulate us?!"

Silence permeated the throne room. Vegeta looked worryingly at his favored subordinate, fearing for the Saiyan's life.

Calmly, as if to teach a child, Freeza turned away from Nappa and to his green-skinned servant Zarbon.

"Tell me, Zarbon, how long do you think it would take you to conquer a planet like Shikk?"

Zarbon seemed to hesitate for a moment thinking about what reply would be most accurate from what little he knew about the planet in question.

"Well honestly, I don't know, Freeza. But I couldn't imagine it taking much longer than a day." Zarbon finally rationalized.

"Really?" Freeza laughed, "A whole day? It is a rather small planet after all… hardly anything difficult…"

Vegeta felt his teeth clench. It had not been a small planet. A small planet was the sort that he could blow up in one shot. Planet Shikk had been over 20,000 miles around.

And now the Saiyans had to actively restrain themselves from attacking Freeza. To insult their work just like that… To undermine their efforts… Even Freeza's servant Zarbon looked a little put off by his master's words, though he hid it well underneath his smirk.

"Well? Is there anything else you'd like to report to me?" Freeza finally continued with a smirk, "Why are you still here? You do understand that I have more significant matters to attend to, right?"

And then Nappa was flying through the air at their emperor, yelling curse words and cocking his fist…

And then Vegeta was holding him back, biting his tongue as if to prevent himself from doing anything stupid as well. This meeting was going sour quickly. He could see now why his father had hated Freeza so much.

"Please excuse us master Freeza." Vegeta said through clenched teeth after reining in Nappa. "We'll be leaving now." As an afterthought he added, "We'll be waiting for your next command" before walking out with his two subordinates in tow. They were the last three known members of their race. They couldn't afford to lose each other here. They had to survive, no matter how stupid…

"Oh by the way, monkey, I actually do have some news for you", Freeza said as they were about to walk out. Vegeta visibly shook at the nickname. Oh how he hated it. "It turns out you three are not the last Saiyans." Wait what? "My subordinate found a record of one being sent to this planet, Earth, a while ago. It seems to be a sibling of your subordinate (what's his name) Raditz."

Vegeta gaped at these words, unsure of what to feel. Another Saiyan? A low class one but still… If this was true; if it was a girl, then their race was not doomed. He'd marry her immediately…

"Ah, it's too bad though…" Freeza commented snidely. "… It appears that I actually do have another mission for you… On the other side of the galaxy… On a small planet named Trekk."

And now Vegeta was yelling. Energy swirled around him as he let out all of his pent up rage and frustration into the throne room's air. What the hell was Freeza's attitude anyway? Could you even be any more of a prick?!

His yelling was finally silenced by Freeza, who was still smirking at him. But that was ok. Vegeta had let his anger out now. Now he was smirking as well.

"Is there something you feel the need to say to me Vegeta?" Freeza taunted. "It feels like something has been on your mind for a while now. Why don't you let it out, like that yell of yours?"

Vegeta just grinned. "Oh I do have something to tell you Freeza. And it is fairly important. For you see, it appears my subordinate Raditz has caught a cold of some sort and won't be able to stay on our squad for a while now." Freeza just frowned. "His performance is being oh so undermined by it that I fear he's quite useless as he is now. Thus, I'd like to inform you that he's going on holiday. He's going to visit relatives on this little planet… oh, what's it called? Earth."

"Oh?" said Freeza, mildly amused.

"Yes. Surprising isn't it, him having relatives there." Vegeta commented, still smirking. "I didn't hear about it until recently either."

"Well who am I to manage such insignificant details?" Freeza said in response. "You may go. I believe your rival Cui is just outside, waiting for his own briefing."

And at any other time, Vegeta would've just taken his leave, reentered his space-pod and gone off to conquer Planet Shikk with Nappa, but for now something compelled him to stay. To see his rival being treated just as badly as he was.

"No Freeza." Vegeta smirked, "If you wouldn't mind, I'll like to see your meeting with Cui for myself. It might be educational for me."

Freeza frowned, no longer amused, but he didn't say anything as he gestured for Cui to be sent in. Said alien immediately bowed when he entered.

"Lord Freeza. I have successfully conquered planet Leokk. It has taken me just two days my lord." Vegeta dimly noticed his smirk. Had Cui heard his own meeting? Was that meant to be a taunt?

"Hm. Just two days." Freeza said, turning smugly to Vegeta. "For your strength, that's almost impressive. Maybe you should be get promoted."

Vegeta almost groaned. This meeting actually was pissing him off. But wait: there was an inconsistency in Cui's words.

"Hey fish face," Vegeta addressed to Cui, refusing to look Freeza in the eye, "if you really did conquer Leokk in just two days, why are you just arriving now? Shouldn't you have been here yesterday?"

"Umm…" Cui said, suddenly panicking. "You must excuse me lord Freeza but the truth is, I was ambushed by umm… A group of Cooler's dogs. Yes. They had held me back a day my lord but I beat them and came straight here… Yes."

Cui was lying threw his teeth, Vegeta noted. Anyone could hear it. Of course, he'd heard such lies a million times but it actually surprised him that Cui was spinning such a tale to his own lord Freeza, who he normally wouldn't shut up about. Vegeta found Cui truly pathetic.

Freeza was now also unamused.

"So you ran into one of Cooler's soldiers, did you? And you lived to tell the tale?"

"Ye-ye-yes lord Freeza." Cui said, unable to abandon his lie now.

"I dare say I've underestimated you Cui." Freeza was not smiling. "I was going to let you continue crushing weaklings but if you're really as strong as you say, I'll need to give you a better job."

"Freeza?" Cui asked looking at his boss in worry.

"There is this solar system not too far from here. On it is a rather small planet called Tsuchi, with some very strange energy signatures on it." Freeza said with narrowed eyes. "If you are really as strong as you say, conquer them for me."

Vegeta narrowed his eyes at Cui, in anger. Cui had just lied to Freeza's face, just like that, yet he was getting rewarded with a harder mission for it?

Cui was sweating now. The boss looked mad. Why would he just give him a mission then? Was this some clever way to off him?

Still Cui put on a smirk as he responded, "With pleasure my lord Freeza. I will complete this task for you without delay." Things would be fine no matter what happened. He was Cui after all, one of Freeza's strongest warriors. Even if the planet was a little stronger than he was used to, nobody could beat him, right?

Cui exited the room with Vegeta right behind him cursing him out. Freeza smiled at the result of that meeting. Cui would get his due judgement for lying by dying on that planet and Vegeta would still remain jealous of him. Things had worked out perfectly.

Several light-years away, a member of the galactic patrol watched as Cui's pod took off. She didn't have any illusions about matching or killing Cui, but this particular patrol man/girl considered herself to be a hero of justice so she wasn't just going to sit back and watch.

With a ship only marginally more advanced then Cui's own, she sped off to Planet Tsuchi herself, to warn the populace of Cui's arrival.

With any luck, things wouldn't be a slaughter like last time.

Naruto Uzumaki collapsed on the ground in exhaustion. He had done it. He had finally done it. Finally, he had successfully added Wind Chakra to his Rasengan. All was finished. The training was done. Now, he could finally catch up with Team 10 and help defeat those Akatsuki members who had killed off Asuma. If only he could pull himself up, he could…

The sound of a crashing spaceship suddenly filled the atmosphere. Naruto looked up towards the source of the sound just in time to see a small spaceship, maybe 12 meters in diameter, shoot past him at a dangerous speed, towards the urban part of Konoha village.

…That looked really dangerous…

So instead of finding Yamato and running straight towards Team 10's battle, Naruto took a little detour into the center of the village to see what the fuss was about.

It was only at the last moment that the Galactic Patrolwoman managed to regain control of her aircraft for the landing. Landings were always rough for her aircraft. Her ship wasn't exactly built for aerial maneuvering. It was the needed sacrifice for the speed it could attain that her ship was so difficult to land properly. Still, she was an expert pilot and with a flick of her wrist, the ship's descent stabilized and Galatic Patrolwoman Petria landed on the roof of a large building.

Hopping out of her ship, Petria looked around at the city beneath her. She had actually aimed to land around here. This was the largest population center on the planet as far as she could tell and when one aims to warn a planet about an alien invasion, spreading news through large population centers is key.

Though, she noted, there weren't many signs of advanced technology in this settlement. The roads here were unpaved, the buildings were made of either wood, concrete or both, and there weren't any signs of vehicles anywhere. She didn't know if this was a good sign. Thus, she was relieved at the speed with which the locals managed to confront her.

Three people had managed to appear before her. Two of them, she noted, wore light grey armored outfits and porcelain masks to hide their faces but one of them went without the mask or armor and instead wore a green cloth robe.

The mask-less one actually had quite the pretty face and Petria was about to compliment it before she saw the huge blobs of fat on her chest and held back the compliment. The mask-less one might get angry if she accidentally drew attention to such a horrible deformity. She certainly wouldn't want to gather any attention to her own grossly large blobs.

Still, Petria bowed down in a universal sign of peace and proceeded to introduce herself.

"Hello. My name is Petria of the Galactic Patrol. I come in peace. I would like to speak to your leader immediately…" Petria couldn't quite finish her sentence since the mask-less native had already flown at her with a dropkick which Petria was just slightly too slow to react to.

The kick hit and the unstableness of Petria's bowed position, along with the absurdly strong nature of the dropkick, were enough to push Petria face-first onto the roof. Hairline cracks appeared in the floor beneath her from the excess force of the kick and Petria found herself not so much lying as buried inside the roof's concrete floor.

Petria groaned. That had kinda hurt.

Tsunade looked intensely at the figure she had just dropkicked. She didn't trust it. Not with it's strange bubblegum-pink skin tone nor the four fingered hands nor the strange attire and weapons and certainly not its promises of peace. Nobody trusted suspicious figures who claimed to come in peace. That was, like, Ninja rule #1.

But what really put Tsunade on edge was that the figure had just stood up after her dropkick. In fact the figure, despite the concrete dust in its clothes, looked wholly unharmed by it.

I mean, it wasn't like Tsunade had actually tried to kill the figure in front of her. She had wanted to bring it in for interrogation after all, but the force behind that kick should've easily been enough to break any "Normal" ninja's spine. She'd been almost serious with it, for God's sake.

The other problem was that someone that durable would probably be a great threat to the village if it chose to fight. Tsunade felt herself dimly aware of her mistake in attacking the figure and frustratingly put her hands in the air as the universal peace symbol. If possible, she'd let the figure talk now. Maybe it would buy time for more help to arrive.

"Is that how you always treat your guests?" Petria intoned with a sweat drop. The kick hadn't hurt enough to get angry over but it hadn't exactly been nice. And now they had their hands in the air for some reason. "I said that I come in peace right?"

"So you claimed," Tsunade responded carefully, "but you won't blame us for being suspicious. The strange thing you traveled here with was way too noisy to be a weapon of peace."

"You mean my Space Ship?" Petria asked, pointing to it. When Tsunade nodded, Patria's mood seemed to drop even lower. "I see… F*ck me, this isn't even a high civilization yet is it?"

Tsunade's confused look was all of the answer Petria could need. The galactic patrolwoman wanted to bang her head on the ground.

So much for local help in stopping the alien menace…

Seeing the rather enraged look on the stranger's face, Tsunade decided to distract it with a few questions.

"Who are you? What is your purpose here?" came easily out of Tsunade's mouth and the galactic patrolwoman again started explaining her situation on the planet.

"Hello, I am Petria. A member of the Galactic Patrol: a group which protects all sorts of planets and their lifeforms from the destruction and tyranny of space dictators. I come in peace and do not wish to harm anyone here; rather to save them. An alien menace is coming to slaughter your people and enslave your planet. I would like to speak to your leader immediately so that they may make an official announcement and so that you may prepare accordingly. If you don't… hell… even if you do, you'll have almost no chance against him. Now where is your leader?"

The mask-less person smiled, thankful that this figure, Petria, could be reasoned with. "I am the leader here. I am the Slug Princess and I am the fifth Hokage. I am the leader of all the ninja posted here in the Hidden Leaf Village, Tsunade Senju."

Naruto entered the Hokage office in a huff just in time to see Grandma Tsunade chatting happily with this weird pink blob. The two really seemed to be hitting things off, much to the confusion of both him and several other ninja which had already arrived in the room. However, it was around when Naruto came in that Tsunade's face scrunched back up to her serious look and she addressed the blob to explain itself to all of them.

The pink blob, which seemed instead to be some sort of pink skinned person upon farther inspection, seemed to be slightly annoyed with having to introduce itself again but it complied easily enough with the request of the Hokage.

"Hello. It is a pleasure to meet you all and I wish I could have done it under more pleasant terms. I am Petria, the 5th highest ranked among the Galactic Patrol and I have come down from the stars to warn you of another who shall also come down soon."

"Wait, wait, wait…" Kiba interjected, "Come down from the stars? Does that mean you're an alien?"

"In your language I am, but I have not come for my own personal gain. Rather, I have come to warn you of impending doom. I will not try to harm you but the next to come will."

"So there's another alien coming down" Tenten commented, mystified by the information, "And this one will try to take us over?"

"Yes" Petria confirmed. "It will try to enslave your race and, failing that, will try to kill everything on this planet."

There was a bit of silence.

"I'm sorry" Neji spoke up. "This is all moving a bit too quickly for me to truly grasp. Am I right that you said: 'An evil alien will come down from the stars with the power to destroy the world?'"

"Not destroy the world; just kill all life on it. Fully destroying a planet takes almost a hundred times the power of just wiping all the life off of it and turning it into an unlivable volcanic wasteland." Petria said, "Though yes, that is basically the jist of it. An alien of frightening power will come."

"What do you propose we do?" This was from Sakura, who shared a peculiar hair color with the alien.

"If you want any hope in fighting the alien off, you must gather all of the strongest warriors on this planet to face him." Petria commented. "Only then will you possibly stand a chance."

There was silence. Everyone looked at the crazy pinky blob who was currently nodding to herself, lost in thought, then back towards themselves.

"All of the strongest, on the entire planet?" Tsunade finally asked, voicing everyone's thoughts. "Something like that will be impossible. I mean, something like that will truly be impossible."

"Oh?" Petria asked in genuine confusion. "And why is that?"

"Unless you haven't noticed," this was Neji again, with a very dry tone, "Our world is not exactly united at the moment."

"Wait a second!" Petria suddenly said looking startled, "You can't be… Oh my god you are… You're uncivilized people at war!"

"No we're not!" Tsunade suddenly spoke up with a tone full of vehemence, picking the (shorter) alien up by the collar. "I'm the Hokage of this country and can proudly say, we haven't been at full scale war for over a decade."

"Your society is so warlike that you consider even something as sad as that a complement?!" Petria amended, looking even more frightened. "No… No… This place is evil. This place is…"

A slapping sound rang throughout the room. Hinata put her hand down. It was bleeding form the force of the slap while Petria's face looked untouched.

"Don't just insult us all like that!" Hinata yelled at the pink skinned alien. "Nobody here wanted to be born in our situation."

Petria calmed down and looked in awe at Hinata. That was profound. Imagine, living in a world like this…

"You're right." Petria admitted. "I was almost thinking about using the extinction bomb on you right now but you're making an effort to get less warlike so I guess you deserve to live."

"Um… What is the extinction bomb?" Hinata asked shyly.

"Nothing… Nothing…" Petria said while looking away and grimacing. She'd shouldn't have even mentioned it.

"So all of the world's strongest warriors…" Tsunade asked. Petria nodded.

"To do that I recommend you unite the world under one banner. And I recommend you do it soon. It won't be too long until he comes."

"How long do we have?" asked Neji.

"He should be here in about two weeks so not long at all."

"ONLY TWO WEEKS?!"
