The portal spat you out into a forest that felt alive, the smell of wet earth and pine filling your lungs. The sun filtered through the trees, casting jagged shadows across the forest floor. The energy here was different — softer than Namek, more disciplined, but still sharp enough to prick your senses.
You stretched, letting your aura glow faintly. "Alright… let's see what the Hidden Leaf has to offer."
From the distance, two figures approached, moving silently but with unmistakable energy. One was brimming with uncontrolled power — vibrant, emotional, and pure: Naruto. The other, cold and calculating, his chakra sharp and precise: Sasuke.
Naruto spotted your aura instantly and grinned. "Whoa! You're glowing! That's some serious energy! Who… who are you?"
Sasuke, hood drawn, observed silently, his Sharingan flickering. He didn't speak at first, just tilted his head. Potential… and dangerous.
You spread your arms, letting your golden aura shimmer around you. "I'm here because a threat is coming — one bigger than anything your world has ever faced. I need warriors who can wield not just chakra, but Ki. With it, you'll be able to protect not just this world, but all realities."
Naruto's eyes sparkled. "Ki… huh? Like energy attacks? That sounds… awesome!"
Sasuke's eyes narrowed. "Show me."
Training Begins
You decided the best way to teach was to throw them into a sparring session.
"Alright," you said. "I'll go easy on you, but this is about learning control. Naruto, don't just rush in. Sasuke, don't hold back… but focus on precision."
Naruto laughed nervously. "Easy for you to say! You're glowing gold!"
You smirked. "You'll catch up faster than you think."
You powered up slightly, not full Legendary yet, letting your aura flare but keeping it controlled. Both Naruto and Sasuke instinctively tensed. You dashed forward, fists glowing faintly with Ki energy.
Naruto tried to intercept with a straight punch, but you sidestepped easily, letting him feel the flow of energy without hitting him. "Feel it? That's Ki — it's in your core, your chakra, your intent. Focus on it, don't fight it."
Sasuke struck next, precise and fast, trying to pierce your defense. You blocked with one hand, the energy clash sending a shockwave across the trees, leaves flying everywhere. "Better," you said. "But your energy is too tight. Relax your flow; let it work with your body."
Naruto bounced back, golden aura starting to glow faintly around him. "Like this?"
"Yes… almost," you said, dodging his sloppy but powerful punch. "Now try combining it with chakra control. Let it extend your strength instead of just blasting forward."
Sasuke smirked slightly and launched a controlled Ki-infused strike. You countered and landed a light kick, sending him skidding a few meters back. "Not bad. You're already reading my moves better than Gohan did at first."
Naruto, frustrated but excited, flung a small energy blast forward. You caught it effortlessly with your hand, redirecting it back toward him. He stumbled but laughed. "Whoa! That's awesome!"
Small Fight – Learning Each Other
After a few minutes of instruction, you decided it was time for a controlled mini-fight to test how well they could integrate Ki and chakra.
"Alright, one-on-one," you said. "Naruto, you go first. Sasuke, watch and learn — then swap."
Naruto surged forward, his Rasengan glowing with Ki-infused energy. You dodged, countered, and tapped him lightly with a controlled Ki strike, enough to make him stagger but not hurt him. His grin never faltered. "Hey! That tickled!"
Sasuke rolled his eyes and leapt in, moving faster than Naruto could track. You blocked, but let him land a couple of light hits to feel the impact of your aura. He analyzed your movements, learning your rhythm, and then struck again — this time combining Ki with his lightning chakra. The air crackled, and your aura flared, but you blocked effortlessly.
"Better," you said, smiling. "You're starting to understand energy flow. Now both of you, combine it. Work together."
Naruto and Sasuke exchanged a glance, nodded, and charged in tandem. You feinted, letting them land simultaneous strikes. The energy clash lit the forest like a lightning storm. Leaves were torn, trees shook, and the ground itself seemed to vibrate.
After a few moments, you stopped, floating slightly above them. "Excellent. You're fast learners. This is only the beginning. But remember — Ki isn't just for fighting. It's about control, instinct, and understanding your own limits."
Naruto beamed, panting. "I think… I think I get it! This is amazing!"
Sasuke didn't smile, but his eyes softened. "You're… not an ordinary human."
You laughed. "Not quite. And soon, you'll see that your powers are nothing compared to what we'll need to survive the multiverse."
First Multiversal Warning
The sun began to set, painting the sky crimson. And then, faintly, you felt it — a ripple, a distortion in the fabric of reality. Something was watching. Not from this world. Not even this universe.
"Do you feel that?" you asked, aura flaring slightly.
Naruto froze, eyes wide. "Yeah… something's here!"
Sasuke's Sharingan whirred, scanning the horizon. "Not from around here. Definitely not friendly."
A cold shiver ran down your spine. This was your first hint that Oblivion Nexus Prime had begun its reach into their world.
"We train," you said quietly, looking at them both. "We get stronger. And when it comes… we'll be ready."
Naruto grinned, fists clenching. "Bring it on! I can handle it!"
Sasuke's lips curved slightly into a smirk. "We'll see."
The forest rustled as shadows moved in the distance. Something fast, something powerful, something dangerous.
Cliffhanger: A strange ripple appears above the Hidden Leaf. Eyes glowing, chakra radiating like a storm… and the first real battle to test Naruto, Sasuke, and your combined powers is about to begin.
