When his vision returned, Daiki found himself sitting atop Isobu's massive head and beheld an expansive, warm orange world. The land they were open was a never ending expanse of orange, while above them a comforting blackness cast a dusk that took any brightness that would hurt the eyes, giving birth to a simple, empty, yet warm and comfortable world.
"Brother, it has been an age." Isobu's voice rumbling below him snapped the teenage from his eyeing of the area, and his gaze snapped towards where Isobu's head was aimed.
A titanic beast casually lounged on the ground, a carapace of greyish blue armour covered most of its body, leading up to a face like that of a knights helmet topped with a titanic beetle horn. The lower half of its body, was a mottling of light green and orange, serpentine in structure leading into one massive tail, that branched out six massive insectoid wings of the same colour.
Chomei, the Seven Tailed Beast.
Spoiler
"It has," the seven tailed beast laughed lightly and rose up to its full massive height, rising higher above even Isobu himself, "I am surprised with the abrupt meeting, both that and the fact that you trusted a human enough to bring them here, your Jinchuuriki at that."
"Needs must I'm afraid," Isobu shrugged his shoulders, jostling Daiki a bit, "I of course would never bring an outsider into this world unless I implicitly trusted them, and the situation were not so desperate." he stressed.
Chomei in response, chortled, "You have changed brother," the beetle tailed beast was quick to notice, "Before, you would have apologised first before anything else."
Daiki practically felt Isobu roll his eye, "My new jinchuuriki is a bad influence you could say." he replied, but there was no hiding the smirk on his face even with his mouth guard, and the fondness in his voice.
'Love you too buddy.' Daiki thought, grinning.
The chortle turned into full blown laughter, "How lucky for you," Chomei said, "To find a Jinchuuriki you have come to like. Fu is the best I've had since I was first sealed, but I would not even dream of bringing her here, nor sharing my full strength with her willingly."
"Yeah about that," Daiki cut in, crossing his legs as he sat atop his buddies head and leaning his chin on his fist as he stared over at the titanic seven tailed beast, "You might not have a choice soon."
"And the fabled and ever so bold Daiki speaks," Chomeo hummed, "Do you know, there is hardly an hour that goes by where Fu does not think about you?"
His brows raised, "That's…good to know, but not something you should be revealing," he replied, "That's private you know."
Chomei shrugged, "Maybe, it is however a decent source of entertainment, and being sealed as I am is ever so boring," he replied, "But putting that aside, I assume you saying I might not have a choice, pertains to what my brother said about a desperate situation."
"There is an organisation known as Akatsuki brother, led by Madara Uchiha in the shadows." Isobu cut in bluntly.
Chomei snorted, "Madara Uchiha is dead."
"No, no he is not, not quite at least," Isobu replied, "My former jinchuuriki, the Mizukage was put under a genjutsu and controlled by the man for years before he was killed. But that is not the true problem, controlling a mere kage would be childs play for a monster on the same level as Hashirama Senjut. No, it is the fact brother, that Madara Uchiha has obtained the Rinnegan."
Chomei gave a start and his wings flared angrily, "Impossible!" the titanic beast denied, voice thundering, "Fathers eyes could not be obtained by a mere human!"
"Very possible actually," Daiki refuted, "Madara is a direct descendant of the Sage of Six Paths through his oldest son."
"And?" Chomei scoffed, "Many can claim father as an ancestor, not just the Uchiha, but the Senju and even those absurdly crazy Uzumaki freaks too."
"Exactly brother," Isobu nodded, making the seven tailed beast cock his head in confusion, "Both linage together at the highest form, together can unlock the Rinnegan. Madara Uchiha obtained the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan, and in his escape during his final battle with Hashirama Senju, bit off a chunk of the Senju's flesh. And then he integrated that flesh into himself, taking even Hashirama's wood style for himself and senjutsu. Through cultivating the bloodlines of both of our fathers true blood children, his sharingan evolved and became the Rinnegan."
Chomei stilled, "…This is terrible news indeed," he bit out, "Those eyes in the hands of the man whom started this nonsensical Jinchuuriki nonsense by enslaving Ku-" Chomei paused and his head angled to look at Daiki, before he continued, "Kyuubi is the thing of nightmares."
"Don't worry, I already know all your names," Daiki assured the beast, "But the bad news doesn't end there with Madara."
Chomei sighed, "Of course it does not, how unlucky," he rumbled, "I assume it has something to do with this Akatsuki group you speak of? How it can get worse I shudder to think."
"It gets far worse brother," Isobu warned, "Akatsuki itself is a group made up of ten S-class shinobi and kunoichi. Their goal, is to capture us. And then seal all of us inside the Gedo Mazou and ressurrect the Juubi."
"…Those….those fools!" Chomei snarled, "What madness possessed them to think of such a goal? They know not with the forces they meddle!"
"Madara Uchiha wishes to surpass father and become the Jinchuuriki of the Juubi," Isobu revealed, "And cast the Eternal Tsukiyomi upon the world, trapping the entire world in a genjutsu."
Chomei just stared, "…."
An awkward silence permeated the warm orange telepathic world of the tailed beasts as the seven tailed beetle, digested the absurd information just dropped upon him.
Finally, after a near minute, Chomei spoke again, "How terribly unlucky," he huffed, "So that is what you mean when you said I may not have a choice in sharing my power with Fu."
"Pretty much," Daiki shrugged, "To be blunt, sucky as being trapped in a Jinchuuriki is for you, it's also your best protection. The Akatsuki have multiple Sharingan uses and a Rinnegan user. And you guys are vulnerable to doujutsu hypnosis. But working together with a jinchuuriki like us, we become practically immune to genjutsu."
"You can see then why I agreed to work alongside Daiki here," Isobu spoke up, "Becoming fond of him came later, I chose to back him out of necessity at first. And hope to convince you to do the same with your current jinchuuriki."
"A rather steep request," Chomei huffed, "But even should I agree, Fu will need to as well. I cannot share my full power with her, with the seal blocking me. even if I wanted to."
"Leave that to me," Daiki said, "As it is, with full access to your power, even kage won't be able to take Fu lightly, and Waterfall is allied with the Leaf. That makes two perfect jinchuuriki working together, alongside all the powerful ninja i'll have to back us up when I'm Hokage."
"Ah yes, I had almost forgotten you were chosen as the next Hokage," Chomei hummed, "With access to my and Isobu's full power, and the full might of the Leaf, yes few could hope to challenge such a power block. That is, unless your name is Madara Uchiha. Even before he apparently obtained the Rinnegan and the Wood Style, that man was far beyond us, a monster in human flesh."
"Don't worry about Madara brother," Isobu assured him, "Daiki will surpass him. Him and Hashirama alike, Daiki will ascend far above them both, in time, he may even reach the level of father."
Daiki gave a start at his bijuu's words, but before he could say anything, the seven tailed beast replied, "Such confidence you speak with brother, such pride in your voice," Chomei laughed, "How lucky you are to have obtained a jinchuuriki you have such faith in. Very well, I'll agree to your plans and back you."
"Thank you brother," Isobu replied, "In that case, if you are willing. I'd like you to impart some of your chakra to Daiki, so he can act as a base for us to meet, and allow him and Fu to talk here more easily instead of having to rely on the technique they've been using..."
Barely a few seconds had passed in the real world when Daiki returned to consciousness. One of the greatest benefits of the world of the tailed beasts, was that time passed much quicker in there than on the outside.
Absently, as he opened his eyes, his hand trailed to the seal on his neck, where he could feel the small piece of chakra Chomei had bestowed upon him residing.
Already the purified energy of the star chakra and energy of gelel were being filtered into it, just like the chakra imprints he'd absorbed what felt like an age ago now from Sasuke and Naruto.
Over time, that small piece of bijuu chakra would grow to terrifying proportions, and when he absorbed it, he would take the abilities of those tailed beasts for himself.
And it wasn't the only one in there,
Beyond the chakra of Chomei, Sasuke and Naruto. He'd also stored the chakra he'd taken from Gaara, the traces of Shukaku's chakra, and of course, the rather substantial amount of Kurama's chakra he'd absorbed when he goaded Naruto during their training.
'That makes four.' Daiki thought, standing up. Five more, and he'd have complete access to the chakra that made up the Juubi. In vastly smaller amounts for sure.
But all nine together, should possibly grant him the power of the Six Paths. 'Well, if not you've more than one plan to reach that point anyway.' Isobu pointed out drily.
He wasn't wrong. There was of course his plan to use chakra of Indra and Ashura from Naruto and Sasuke's chakra, to evolve Shisui's sharingan into the Rinnegan.
And since Six Paths chakra came from full total mastery of the five elements plus that of Yin and Yang, he also planned to take five different chakra elemental blades, one of each element and seal them inside himself to massively enhance the potency of his elemental affinities and gain perfect balance in those affinities allowing him to gain access to elemental combination bloodlines such as the Ice Style, Scorch Style and more. Just like how the perfect balance of water and wind chakra ore in his armour allowed for him to use Ice Style.
At which point, he would use the Izanagi to comprehend the full usage of Yin and Yang.
Three paths to ultimate power.
Of course, regardless if one of them was enough, he planned to go through with all three of them anyway.
The path of the grind would accept no less!
'Of course not.' Isobu snorted.
As he stood, Fu noticed and grinned at him, "Ah Daiki, you're back, that was quick!" the tan older girl beamed, "Did you and the big bug have a good talk?"
"Something like that," he smiled back, "Pretty dickish to call him a big bug though isn't it?"
"Nah," Fu waved him off, "It calls me a pathetic weak little useless human, I call it a big stupid bug, it's a game we play. There's no hard feelings or anything." he shrugged.
Oh, so it was a bit like how he rizzed up Isobu and they bickered fondly?
'Never, ever even think that again, I almost vomited, and I don't eat,' Isobu gagged, 'So gay.'
Ignored!
"Fair enough," Daiki shrugged before grinning at her, "But yeah, we had a good talk. And I convinced the Seven Tails, to tell you his real name and also give you full access to his power."
"Oh that's pretty cool," Fu grinned wider, before blinking, "Wait…what?"
His own grin got wider, "Pretty cool for sure babe," he winked, "But yeah, I'll sum it up. There's some terrorist group called Akatsuki, full of S-rank ninja, ten of them at least and they want the bijuu. I just let the big guy know that they're gonna come for him too, and well, Waterfall isn't exactly that powerful so there's little protection for you and him here."
"That's….that's a bummer…" Fu simply nodded, accepting his words easily, before pouting, "So the big bug agreed to let me use his full power just because of that huh? Lame, stupid ass bug."
Fu was the only person he knew that would say such a thing in response to being granted full access to a Bijuu's power.
"Never change Fu," Daiki laughed, "So, what should we do for now then? I've only got a few hours to hang out before I need to head back."
Fu tapped her chin, "Hmm, there's not a whole lot to do in Waterfall I haven't done yet," she mused, "Ah, do you wanna go see that silly school Shibuki had built and made me go to? Remember, the one I told you about?"
He blinked, "…Ah yeah, I remember something to that effect," he completely lied. In his defence, Fu tended to ramble, a lot, "Didn't you already graduate from the ninja academy of Waterfall, why is he making you go to another school anyway?"
"Something something life skills, blegh," Fu stuck her tongue out, "I wasn't really listening, I tend to tune him out when he rambles."
Daiki snorted at the irony.
She grinned, "I did learn to sew though which is pretty cool, and I've gotten way better at cooking thanks to the economics classes," she boasted, putting her hands on her hips, "You'd probably like it, everyone had to wear uniforms, all the girls ones had tiny skirts, Shibuki is a real closet perv I tell you."
School girl uniforms!?
Shibukai was getting more and more of a man worth admiring these days wasn't he?
"I wouldn't mind seeing you in your school uniform." Daiki shrugged.
Fu crossed her arms and nodded sagely, "As expected of Daiki the perv," she said, before laughing and grabbing his arm, twin chakra wings extending from her back, "Well alright then, let's go then I'll show you!" she shouted excitedly, and without waiting for a response, zipped into the air dragging him up like a ragdoll.
They dropped in at Shibuki's place to let him know Daiki was in the place and visiting. Fu, had literally landed them on the ledge of his office, kicked his door in, announced their arrival and his presence.
And before Shibuki could even greet him, was zipping into the air again dragging Daiki by the arm as he flapped uselessly in the wind.
Fu as it turned out, lived in a lovely little apartment complex. It wasn't massive or expensive or anything like that, but it was still nice, and afforded her two comfortable sized bedrooms. And they even had walk in closets apparently.
Daiki found himself dragged into her bedroom, a surprisingly pink space, with a pink bedspread. It even had a big shaggy pink rug in the middle of the floor.
A very girly room he had not at all expected of Fu. But maybe he should have? For all she was a total tomboy in attitude, he'd never seen her shy away from the female side of things.
It was more that…she just didn't have anyone to indulge with such a thing before. 'I'm her first friend.' he remembered.
And it wasn't like she had actually made any friends still in the Waterfall village, even if she was more accepted now thanks to her actions during the coup from that water armour using punk that almost killed him.
"Tada!" Fu bounced out of her walk in closet little more than two minutes after throwing him onto her bed, striking a pose with jazz hands. She had completely ditched her useful white top and skirt combo, for a rather skimpy school uniform.
"Wow." he blinked.
A black pleated mini skirt that barely made it mid-way down her thighs, leaving her long toned legs, and full thighs in full view, leading down to a pair of loose socks that wouldn't have looked out of place on a gyaru. While up top, she wore a plain white button up shirt, she hadn't bothered to button up beyond a single button at the bottom, revealing a surprisingly large set of tan breasts held in a lacy green bra. She'd even replaced her red choker with a black one…and did she always have earrings in?
All in all, she looked like a gyaru.
And Daiki had suddenly found an all new appreciation for gyaru's as she beamed at him, pretty bright orange eyes glittering.
Spoiler
He looked her up and down, before nodding and repeating, "Wow."
The smile that spread across her face was blinding, "You like it then?" she asked, shamelessly twirling around, her skirt fluttering up and baring bodacious cheeks split in the middle by lacy green.
"Love it, you look amazing," Daiki admitted, having a hard time pulling his eyes from her breasts, but with supreme grind enhanced will power, he managed it, "I didn't think you were so…..stacked though." he blunted said, he didn't really see a need to be polite about it when she was just showing off.
"That's cuz I use chest bindings," Fu shrugged, "They're annoying to put on, but honestly my boobs are way more annoying. I fly around a lot yeah? Super fast too, so they bounce all over the place unless I bind em'." the older girl shamelessly explained.
"They are pretty big." he agreed.
"I know right? Figured you'd like em'," Fu laughed easily, completely shameless in her reply as she hopped in place making them bounce deliciously, "So how about taking me out on a date then Daiki?" she fired her shot suddenly.
He blinked, not at all expecting that. But, he was no fool, "I'd be an idiot to say no," he replied, eyes drifting over the older girls expansive tan cleavage, before a thought occurred, "Speaking of big, I've got something I want to give you."
He had no need of it himself, but he had picked up a very useful technique from observing Tsunade that would be a big help to Fu, and a few others. It was a pretty high tier thing mind you, and not something he'd usually give out to just anyone.
But this was Fu.
And besides, full access to Chomei's chakra or not, she was the only one of any note here in the Waterfall Village, if they were attacked by the Akatsuki, it would take him a little while to get here in time.
"Oh?" Fu's eyebrows rose in interest and she skipped over, "Another gift? You remember last time you were here, you gave me an incredible summoning contract among other things right? You'll totally spoil me Daiki." she smirked at him as she leaned over his sitting form, large tan breasts dangling in his face.
'I'll give the girl this, she is not shy and she is not afraid to go for what she wants.' Isobu snorted.
"Damn right!" he smirked right back, and reached up…to poke her forehead, chakra alighting along his finger as he inscribed a very specific seal. When he pulled back, there was a purple diamond mark on her forehead.
When he lowered his finger, Fu shuddered and reached up to tap it, "What…did you just do? This is some kinda seal right? I can feel it."
"It's the Strength Of A Hundred Seal," Daiki told her, "It's a seal made by Tsunade Senju. It's pretty simple, but it's a chakra battery. Channel your excess chakra into it every day and build it up. It'll come in handy in a pinch if you're ever low on chakra. And if you draw on it in full, the chakra will be used to amplify your physical abilities massively, a lot like our tailed beast cloaks and even amplify your techniques."
For a second, Fu just stared, before giggling and slumping onto the bed beside him, leaning back on her hands as she looked at him, her shirt pulling back to show even more of her green bra holding back those lovely large breasts of hers, a warm, bright smile appearing on her face, "It's no wonder girls let you get away your perviness when you're so good to them."
Spoiler
Then before he could say anything else, the tan older Jinchuuriki leaned over and pressed her lips against his in a chaste kiss, "Thank you." she said, before pulling back.
Daiki touched his lips, and laughed lightly, "Don't mention it," he replied, "It's just to make sure you have more strength to protect yourself. The world would be a lot less fun without you constantly chattering in my head."
"Heh," she thumbed her nose proudly, "And don't you forget it."
"I definitely won't," Daiki shook his head ruefully and stood up, holding his hand out to her, "Now, how about we go on that date? Though, you'll have to take the lead, I barely saw anything of note the last time I was here, definitely nowhere good enough for a date."
She took his hand and he helped her to her feet, "You're still paying though." she stuck her tongue out, before giving him a grin full of mischief, "And I'll be bringing my camera just in case you randomly decide to lose your clothes. You never know with you, and you still owe me a picture of your dick."
"You're obsessed with my dick." Daiki couldn't help but snort and roll his eyes.
'Yes, personally I don't see the appeal of that tiny little flesh rod.' Isobu cut in to slam dunk his ego.
'Hey, mine is huge! Way bigger than average!' Daiki sputtered inwardly, defending himself as he received a critical hit.
'Even if it was longer than your leg, it'd still be tiny to me.' Isobu smugly retorted.
That big wanker!
'No you.' Isobu maturely responded.
"Just collecting what I'm owed," Fu shrugged, before pumping her fist, "Now let's go make you spend a fortune on me on our date!"
"Sure." he rolled his eyes, he had quite a bit of money thankfully due to his clones running D-rank missions before the Chunin Exams, with his grip on her hand still he pulled along with him towards the door of her bedroom, when a thought occurred, "Actually, you wouldn't happen to have a few spares of that uniform would you? Socks included."
…He would love to see Tenten rocking the gyaru look. And maybe a few others.
Fu raised a brow at him, before rolling her orange eyes, "You're really the worst Daiki," she huffed, but the smirk on her face could not be hidden, "Yes, sure you can have them. But, you better make this date extra worth while."
He opened his mouth-
"And let me take a picture of your dick while I'm at it." she cut him off.
"Fine." he gave in.
Truly, the sacrifices he made for the greater good were beyond ken. 'Power of the human sacrifice, my titanic shelled three tailed ass.' Isobu scoffed.
"Good boy." Fu beamed.
He did his level best to give Fu the best date she could ever want. He spoiled her, taking her to the most expensive restaurant in Waterfall.
It ate a chunk into his savings, but that didn't matter as long as Fu was fine. And afterwards, they went to the theatre where he took her to watch the latest Princess Gale movie that just came out.
She was for sure surprised me he revealed to her that Princess Gale, the actress, was in fact a real princess.
And afterwards, he finished up by just shooting the breeze with her, walking hand in hand through the village and visiting the great tree overlooking the village where they did battle with Suien.
The date ended up dragging on a lot longer than he planned for, and the few hours he planned on staying, turned into seven.
Especially after he took the time to loosen her seal for her, to allow Chomei to share his chakra with her more freely. It would be begrudging for sure to start, but he was sure that now that Fu and Chomei were forced into more regular contact, she'd grow on the big bug bijuu.
Before long however, it was time for him to leave Waterfall behind. Anko would be going spare after all.
Up above the village itself, in the massive branches of the tree overlooking the entire village, they sat atop one of the branches, peering out over the Land of Fire.
So high in the air were they, he could actually see Konoha far off in the distance, "This was fun." Fu mused, leaning against him, chin on his shoulder.
"It was," he agreed, one arm wrapped around her waist holding her close to him, feeling the warmth of her body against him, "Coulda done without being forced to flash my dick in in the cinema bathroom for you to take a picture though."
"Heh." Fu just smirked
Then she sighed, "It was fun getting to see you in person again pervy Daiki," she mused, "Next time though, I don't wanna wait so long to see you again." she burrowed her chin into his shoulder as she whispered.
"Don't worry, I'll make sure to come visit you more often. Now that I can fly, I'll be able to zip here and back to Konoha quickly whenever I want," Daiki assured her, "How could I resist after seeing you like this after all." he cheekily winked and squeezed her waist.
"Such a perv." the mint haired seventeen year old giggled.
"Says the girl obsessed with my dick." he snorted, pressing a kiss to the crown of her head.
They stayed like that for a little while longer, before he had to leave. He soared off into the air, while Fu watched from the tree overlooking the Waterfall Village, a small smile on her face, then raised her hand.
A rippling wave of chakra spread through the air, and then echoed in his mind as her message landed true.
'Next time, I'll give you something even better to look at.'
Daiki grinned.
