The Legend of the Kyubi

"Shouldn't you help your son?" - Mikado asked with a frown as she saw how Naruto was breathing heavily after the long battle he had had with Zastin.     

"That's enough, Naruto, you don't have to keep fighting" - said Lala with concern as she saw how the boy was sweating uncontrollably.     

"No, I can still defeat him" - Naruto replied firmly - "I made a promise and I don't plan to back down."     

Kurama smiled when he heard this as he looked at his son - "Naruto, I think it's time for you to release the last seal."     

"Last seal?" - Ryoko Mikado repeated in surprise - "He's not showing his full power yet?"     

"No, he's showing his full power, it's just that Naruto has a seal because he doesn't control well the inheritance he gained from me" - replied Kurama while shaking his head - "Let's say my firstborn, he's not the person with the most self-control"     

"Oh, I see" - nodded Mikado as she looked at the red haired boy.     

Naruto looked at his father before nodding - "Seal, released!"     

As he finished saying those words, a deep, chaotic energy began to surround his body as a huge, feral grin appeared on his face.     

Zastin was silent when he saw this as he felt his hands shaking because the energy surrounding his opponent's body, was just as dangerous as his emperor's power, only on a much smaller scale.     

"Kitsunebi" - Naruto muttered as his body began to be surrounded by blood-red flames.     

Kurama watched silently as he prepared to intervene if things got out of hand.     

Zastin quickly raised his sword, only to feel something knock him back from the impact - "Your strength has increased, young one."     

Naruto didn't respond, his eyes were now red and sharp, tribal markings appeared on his arms and cheeks while his fangs grew considerably. It was as if he had lost the balance between human and animal.     

Zastin did not look worried, he just remained composed and prepared to defend himself and counterattack at the right moment.     

"That man, the imperial knight, has enormous talent" - said Kurama as he watched his son continue to attack like a crazed animal - "It's a pity though".     

"What's a pity?" - Mikado asked with concern.     

"The way he fights, he's too passive, that's good against enemies that are just as calm as him, but that knight is facing my son in his crazed state" - Kurama replied as he shook his head - "When Naruto is in this state, he has almost unlimited stamina and a significant increase in power, that means you can't have a battle of attrition against him because you'd just be handing him victory"     

"I see, Zastin-san is trying to find an opening while defending himself, but Naruto won't stop" - muttered Mikado with surprise - "But there's something I don't understand, why can't he control his part that he inherited from you?"     

"Because he needs to practice Senjutsu, a special art from my world that serves to balance the energies we have inside us" - answered Kurama with honesty - "Naruto still doesn't balance his energies, in fact, his Bijuu power that he inherited from me, is extremely high, I guess it's because he is my first son, and that his mother had been the jailer of the former Kyubi no Kitsune"     

Mikado felt like the more information she got, the greater her confusion became. It was a strange feeling, but at the same time her sense as an investigator made her wish she knew more about all of this.     

"Naruto" - Lala murmured worriedly as she watched the red-haired gentle boy, getting progressively wilder.     

* * * * *     

It took about 5 more minutes, for Zastin to realize his mistake, but there wasn't much he could do anymore, not when his arms were starting to fail him from the exhaustion of having withstood the constant attacks of his tireless opponent.     

"I guess it was my mistake not realizing it sooner" - Zastin muttered while laughing lightly - "But well, this won't change anything."     

Naruto didn't respond, he continued to attack with his sharp claws.     

The young Kitsune was sweating, but his attacks were endless.     

Zastin let out a sharp sigh as he felt the strength of his weapon's grip, starting to become weaker, to the point that he knew it was a matter of minutes before he would lose the feeling in his arms - "Ok, I think that's enough, you have enough power to defend Lala-sama, although I feel you need much more training"     

Naruto didn't respond he just continued to attack, at least until that strange white haired man appeared behind his son and put his hand on his neck.     

"Sorry, let's just say this is just an emergency measure" - Kurama replied as he watched his son regain his sanity.     

"Huh? Did I succeed?" - Naruto asked as he fell to his knees.     

"You could say yes, though only because your opponent let his guard down" - Kurama replied as he shook his head - "Seriously, it looks like I have to increase your training."     

Naruto just kept silent, though his expression changed when he felt something soft against his back - "Huh?"     

"It's good to see you're safe!" - Lala exclaimed with a huge smile, though everyone could tell how worried she was for the red-haired boy.     

"Etto, sorry" - Naruto muttered as he noticed this detail.     

"No, you managed to keep your promise" - smiled Lala as she looked at Naruto - "Thank you, though I feel it's better if I go back to Zastin, I can't let you keep putting yourself in danger."     

"No!" - Naruto exclaimed firmly - "I'm not going to let you live an unhappy life, no one deserves it, much less someone as kind as you!"     

Naruto's words made Lala's tears, come out without her being able to stop them.     

"I'm sorry!" - Naruto exclaimed when he saw that he had made the girl cry.     

"N-No, you don't have to apologize, in fact, thank you" - murmured Lala as she took the red-haired boy's hands - "Thank you very much, with your words, I've already made up my mind, I'm not going back with dad".     

"Well, me, no, we will protect you" - replied Naruto firmly.     

"No, I want you to protect me, Naruto" - said Lala while giving him a smile - "I'm not going back to daddy to force me to marry someone, because I already decided that you will be my husband."     

". . ." - Naruto's smile froze when he heard this as he felt like he heard something weird - "What?"     

"You heard me, silly" - said Lala with embarrassment - "You will be my husband, Naruto ~!"     

"I could see that coming" - muttered Kurama as he shook his head.     

Mikado just smiled as he saw Naruto's expression change drastically, more so when the girl was practically hanging from his body.     

"That's good news, Gid-sama will be happy to hear that you have chosen someone with so much potential" - Zastin said as he looked at his hands and noticed how they were bleeding slightly - "I'll let him know right away, I wish you good luck, Lala-sama, I promise we'll meet again soon."     

"Ok, say hi to daddy for me ~" - Lala said with a smile.     

Zastin nodded before retreating, but not before giving a small bow to the white-haired man because now that he was so close, he could feel the danger welling up from his skin.     

"This is interesting, it's not every day you get to see how the princess of the universe, chooses someone as her husband" - Mikado said as she walked over to Kurama and looked with interest at the red haired young man who was getting all the attention from the pink haired princess.     

"I've seen much more interesting interactions, though this falls into the category of the knight in white armor saving the princess" - said Kurama as he stroked his chin - "Good job, son, I didn't think you'd get a girlfriend so soon, not with how territorial Sarada-chan is"     

Naruto only blushed when he heard this while Lala shouted in happiness because it was obvious that the white haired man, approved their relationship - "Thank you, dad!"     

"You're welcome, young lady" - Kurama smiled as he walked to the girl and looked at her carefully - "Anyway, I guess I have to fix the house first, and then I have to give you a room, so you can live in"     

"But, shouldn't I sleep next to my husband?" - Lala asked, confused about the situation - "And come to think of it, how did they find us so quickly?"     

"Th-That, I can answer it myself, Lala-sama" - said a childish voice.     

"Peke?" - Lala asked in surprise as she watched the strange robot appear through the hole Zastin's subordinates had made - "Ok, that explains the situation, although I clearly told you to be careful not to be followed."     

"Sorry, it's just that I couldn't detect your bio-signals properly, so I had to go to a high place, so I could try to detect you more carefully" - Peke replied with embarrassment.     

"Who is he?" - Naruto asked curiously.     

"Oh, this is Peke, she's the dress robot I built" - replied Lala with a huge smile as she took off her clothes.     

Naruto quickly averted his gaze, though he noticed how the girl's body began to glow after Peke came into contact with her.     

"Transformation complete ~!" - Lala exclaimed in her new attire.
