naruto the arcane mage

Untitled Part 3

In an open clearing within the forest of the Land of Waves were two grave markers shaped like crosses. The one on the left had a scarf wrapped around it, the other one had a massive sword stabbed into the ground with a semi-circle near the handle. These graves belong to Haku Yuki and Zabuza Momochi.

A few feet away from the graves a distortion in the space appeared and swirling into existence was Naruto Uzumaki. The red-tipped blond rubbed his head on the small irritation he was experiencing. "*groan* Okay note to self. Train in my doujutsu to not experience any form of headaches." Naruto son stood up and looked at Zabuza and Haku grave. The ex-genin bowed his head and prayed for them out of respect. Once he finished the prayer he walked up towards Kubikiribōchō. "I am going to borrow this Zabuza. I will need all the help I can get in the future." The blond soon touched the handle of the sword and he saw the world darken.

-inside Kubikiribōchō-

Naruto soon lands on an ocean of blood. With no sight of land and a black skyline. "Where am I?"

"In Kubikiribōchō, brat." Said a familiar voice.

Naruto soon turns around to see a figure he didn't expect to see. There standing in front of him was a tall and noticeably muscular man with pale skin, short spiky black hair, brown eyes and small eyebrows. Wearing bandages like a mask over the bottom half of his face. His Hitai-ate was sideways on his head. Wearing a black sleeveless shirt and matching pants, with waist guard and Kirigakure's stripped wrist and leg-warmers.

"Zabuza? How are you alive?"

The man chuckled. "I am not alive, gaki. I merely a part of the many souls who reside in Kubikiribōchō."

"What do you mean?" asked the blond what the Swordsman meant. And a part of him was freaking out! He still feared ghost!

"You see gaki when the wielder of the Kubikiribōchō dies. They put a piece of their soul into it. These soul fragment see the memory of the new wielder and judges whether or not the one who grabbed it is worthy of the sword. This process has been done to all of its past wielders since the forging of the Seven Blades. However the fragment disappears after two years and the sword become fair game." Said the Demon of the mist. "And I saw your memory kid. I must say you have one hell of a will to survive what have gone through. So I will allow you to wield Kubikiribōchō. Also I will give you memory of one of the hide out I used in wave. Their you can get some supplies. Best of luck Naruto."

Soon Zabuza disappeared and the world was engulfed in a white light.

-Reality-

Naruto son sees that he is back in reality. He picked up the massive zanbatō that felt a bit of weight in his hands. He did a few test swings and later sealed in a scroll. "Well better head to the hide out...I wonder." 'Hey Kurama.'

'What Gaki?' asked the massive fox.

'Glad to see you still have that nickname for me. Anyways is there a spell that will allow me to fly?' asked the boy curious.

'Yes, just calm down and then with you grimoire say draconic flight. This will give you wing to fly, They will feel natural for you like they were your own arm.' Said the chakra beast.

'Alright thanks for the tip.' He thought as he soon focused on his back. A few seconds later he heard tearing of his clothing and turned to look and see. Their before him were two massive wings possibly creating a wingspan of 20 feet. It was made of white with a blue edge scales with the crisscrossing white stiffening fiber. He did basic motions as if they were hands. "Let's test these bad boys." Soon the ex-shinobi shot into the air shouting with joy. "This is amazing!" He soon shot off to the base of the deceased Mist Demon.
