A few steps more and I appeared in a rocky world wreaked with chaos and devastation. I was a short distance walking over to Sasuke and Naruto who was staring at the land. Naruto hadn't powered down yet.
Sakura who was in a distance on a taller vantage point called out as she noticed me however I'm sure Naruto noticed me first.
"Naruto watch out!" Sakura yelled.
"Damn!" Sasuke said as I assumed he noticed me too. He tried to get up however was to hurt and glared at me.
Sakura seeing Sasuke failing attempt almost let the tears surfacing from her eyes leave. Immediate chakra covered her fist in a green glow at least 4inches thick. Moving as she ran as fast as she could toward me.
In 3 seconds she had been stopped. Naruto glanced at Sakura and the golden gellow cloak had a large claw hand form and a extend from it and block Sakura from me.
"N-naruto?" Sakura stammered with a firm but confused facial expression.
"This guy, he's not an enemy. Our chances of survival will thin all the more if you attack anyone right now so stop it!" Naruto said and actually turned around to face me.
Everyone present had their curious eyes and cautions upon me.
As unrelenting as ever.
"Now, let's talk. Who are you?" Naruto asked.
"As unrelenting as ever. No one ever relents with me. Why?" I said aloud.
My outfit was baggy black pants and goldene accessories to my arms and wrist. I think this is nothing suspicious however no one here worel anything like it.
"We're cautious because you showed up without a portal much less the part on not knowing a thing about you. Explain your self." Sasuke said, acting as strong as ever.
"You showed up walking out of thin air casually, if you could be a pal and help us understand whose side we're on it'll help us relax." A man with a large ponytail said, shikarmaru.
Sakura relaxed her stance but kept her chakra fist ready.
I thought of what to tell them and it wasn't easy. If I say I'm here with rewards will they even let me near them? I just appeared. I can't be trusted near these ninja so easy. Wait what if..
"Naruto, I am God and I want to grant a gift to the both of you greater than hagormo." I said. I went with honesty.
"What a drag." Said shikamaru.
"He knows of the six paths and said he's heading gifts. Naruto choose wisely. He hasn't attacked yet but his jutsu is obviously powerful him being here is evident of that." Kakashi said carefully.
Stolen story; please report.
I'm sure I Naruto doesn't like the looks of this, no one could. If they stay here and the drained Sasuke dies they are without a way home. Now a stranger comes bearing gifts 7feet tall. It's understandable.
"I'll bite, what is it you're going to give me?" Naruto said.
"I don't know. Make one selfish request." I said simply. I didn't know what they wanted and what could be of use. If I fixed everything to how it was whose to say they would be satisfied.
Naruto eyes narrowed. Everyone's did.
"I want to bring back the leaf village. Can you do it? You're a god right?" Naruto said.
"Naruto." Hinata said. Simply calling him.
"I said a selfish request. This can be easily done yet of course I won't grant it though. I can give you the power to do so but I'd rather give you an ability." I said frankly.
"What the-" Naruto said as he didn't quite like my response. Sasuke sighed as he seemed to understand.
"I'm not the gods if nicities like those. Hell they won't even interact with you guys." I said.
"I see.." Naruto said. This isn't bad the current him. Im sure the old him would have been shouting his head off.
"I see where this is going.. Naruto, tell him the power you want. Don't hold back either." Sasuke said.
I nodded at Naruto and Sasuke smiled at me.
"Got it.. I want to stay with everyone as long as I can! So give me something to keep me alive and the fastest jutsu." Naruto said.
I smiled and gladly granted his request.
"you might need the brain for that too Naruto!" Sasuke said.
"Well that's true." Sakura agreed as she took the steps required toward Sasuke, and knelt down and began healing him as she studied his injuries and me carefully. However as a kunoichi she appeared nonchalant and less worried than before, even donning a smile.
"Yea that too! And stop calling me dumb!" Naruto shouted and they chuckled humorously, Sakura, Sasuke and shikamaru.
"Come in guys stop bullying the hokage." Shikamaru said. He seemed more relaxed than everyone but his eyes were never leaving me as they watched for any sudden movement.
"Naruto I will give you permability, this will ensure your survival and it comes with perks. As for speed I'll give you teleportation with an equally fast mind and youre equipped for this." I said.
Merely shifting my feet bought glances from everyone and they stared. Naruto was more carefree and rubbed his head with his bandaged hand.
My right foot went to the right some more was all and thus I granted Naruto what he asked.
"Done, now Sasuke?"
"You know of me huh? Just grant me a body that works like reanimation. You know what that is right?" Sasuke requested.
I nodded and too granted his request.
But suddenly Sasuke body burst to particles.
Everyone jumped.
Aw fuck this.. why? I'm leaving.
++
Sakura was in shock but her chakra flaired and Naruto glared. Shikamaru used shadow control to attempt keeping me in place.
I knew the only one who could stop this was Naruto so I spoke to him while not resisting.
"Naruto watch where Sasuke was closely." I said.
Naruto slowly turned his gaze back to where Sasuke was and watched as Ash came together to form his friend. Sasuke was returning who never left.
"Sasuke!" Naruto called. He was obviously relieved as was everyone else that stood back. Sakura turned back and her shout was cut off as she came to tears and watched Sasuke stand once more as her expression became a mix of sadness and relief.
"Even my chakra is.. Naruto." Sasuke looked up at Naruto with a smile. In that moment I could see their last selves from their last clash over lap for a moment with their present selves.
They smiled they old friends appeared a distance away over flat Rocky land. They were half a mile apart when they smiled. And finally they ran at each while Naruto powered down losing the golden yellow cloak.
In mere moments..
They clashed, attacking with collision of each other's right forearm and their smile mean while became a full on grin.
The ground? Cracked, crumbled and cratored for a few miles on, that almost reached us.
