Lost

As the Caravan was traveling near a cliffside full of ice.

"I'm tired of this escort thing, you know we got a diva princess" Yoru Grumbled.

"It'll be over before you know it Yoru" Yamato pacified the grumbling Yoru.

Soon the caravan stopped.

"Why'd we stop?" Sakura asked

"Some personnel wanted to take a piss" Sandayū answered her.

"*Sigh* I'm tired of this drama, Guren find Princess Koyuki make sure she doesn't leave it'll be troublesome" Guren nodded at Ryu's words and followed Koyuki.

'Hmm? This Chakra Signature? Another Otsutsuki?'

Before Ryu could think anymore the caravan was blasted.

"WHERE IS HE? WHERE IS HAMURA!?" A man in a white Haori carrying a Red Scythe appeared frantically shouting.

A kunai was suddenly thrown at his face and he grabbed it before he could talk lowly he suddenly ducked and kicked the air behind him.

"Gah! He's definitely better than Nase" Ryu held his stomach and soon alerted Kakashi and Yamato.

"Kakashi-sensei, Yamato-Sensei take everyone out of here this is no longer part of the mission! I'll explain later!"

"But Ryu!"

"Just Do i-" Ryu was suddenly hacked by a scythe

"Are you Hamura's Vessel?" Its a pity your this weak.

The Ryu in front of him soon turned into water.

[ Hiding in Mist Technique!]

"What's this technique? its annoying its blocking my sight well [Byakugan!]"

'Tch so many Clones, not that it matters I'll find you and I will kill you!' The man soon hacked another Ryu clone appearing and disappearing in the mist

"Kakashi-san Yamato-san please! only I can handle this get out of here now Doto may use this chance!"

When both Jonins heard that Ryu changed his tone of speaking they knew it was serious and they both nodded and believed Ryu.

"Naruto, Sasuke help the other civilians trapped in the caravan, Sakura heal any injured Person, Guren, Yoru protect the princess Me and Yamato will look out just in case Doto arrives!" Team 7 and Team 12 soon left and heeded Kakashi's words leaving Ryu and the strange man alone.

"Why don't we take this somewhere else?" Ryu asked the man

"You think I'm an idiot? I've got leverage here so NO! I pity that you are Hamura's vessel, The man shall die for his sins against mother!!"

[ Water Release: Hail! ]

The man formed hands seals on the air soon large water orbs were formed in the air and when they were finished condensing it suddenly dropped onto the field

[ Wood Release : Deep Forest Emergence! ]

The surrounding area was suddenly turned into a cold jungle with the ground flooding with water and turning into ice slowly while the trees were still growing.

"Hmm such petty tricks won't work against me!"

[Fire Release: Fire Dragon Bullet !]

The Surrounding soon turned chaotic

[ Summoning Jutsu!]

"What is it Ry!" When Yasaka came out she immediately sensed the Chakra and soon fused with Ryu.

[ Summoning Jutsu!]

Another fox soon came out when Ryu.

"Yua, use this seal when you see the chance implant it on his eye when I make an opening Okay?, don't go in if its too dangerous."

"Yes Ryu-san!" soon the fox melded with the tree's inside hiding her presence"

'That man is definitely fast if he could react to Flying Thunder God that quick I have to go all out this time'

[Sage Art : Sage Mode ]

[Ketsuryūgan]

[Blood Arts : Phantom]

"Found You!" He suddenly heard a voice , Ryu then threw another Kunai at the Man.

"Your useless trick wont work on me" The Man gripped the Kunai but was shocked when Ryu appeared in front of Him.

[ Chidori! ] Ryu pierced his hand towards the mans heart but before it could reach there His hand was held and was suddenly thrown meters away.

"That blade of yours looks familiar? No It can't be!" The man soon remembered a certain red haired man that killed the remnants of his clan in the Land of Snow

"YOU'RE HIS SON!" The man suddenly went on a hacking frenzy as Ryu tried and parried the man's incoming charges.

'He certainly moves fast but!' Ryu saw an opening

[ Genjutsu : Ketsuryūgan! ]

The man widened his eyes but soon smiled

"I'll let you know I don't get affected by that child's play of a genjutsu of yours!" The man soon hacked Ryu's chest who suddenly turned into wood and latched on to his arm tightly.

[Fire Release : Hellfire Rasengan! ]

The Man was finally blasted and burned away by Ryu's rasengan.

"*Huff* Finally!" When Ryu said that the man appeared in front of him still burning and soon held Ryu's face with his left hand lifting him from the ground

[ Judgement! ]

Ryu was suddenly teleported away with the man in an unfamiliar space, an area filled with red cliffs and a dome that covered the domain

"Where are am I?"

"You young Child are in space all Otsutsuki can do it and travel in it but you are not Otsutsuki I wonder how long can you survive against me?" The man smiled and soon opened his arms inviting Ryu to attack him.

'Ryu-sama I can't sense Natural Energy here, I believe you only have five minutes left of using Sage mode, but I can stil fuse with you indefinitely' Yasaka assured her Master.

Before both of them could think the Man soon appeared and slashed Ryu's chest and kicked him away.

"Gah!" Ryu instinctively used [Mystical Palm] on his chest as he thought of way to beat the person in front of him

'What to do what to do!, It's a huge risk but I'll try it!'

[Wood Clone Technique]

Soon 10 Ryu clones formed the other 5 spread out while the remaining 5 Charged in with the Original Ryu

'Preparing another sneak attack huh?'

[Blood Arts : Howl of the Moon!]

Soon The 6 Ryu's slashed in and out of the Man forcing him to parry every slash as he was forced back

[Wood Release: Underground Roots Technique]

Soon one of the chargine Ryu's restrained him but it was suddenly cut off but it left the man open as he was slashed at the back!

'Annoying' as the man kept parrying, dodging .

'How much Chakra do I have left Yasaka?'

'Ryu-sama are you actually going to do it? You haven't mastered it yet!'

'It's either that or I die trying!'

Chakra gathered at his arm while the remaining Ryu's were fighting the strange man creating time for the Original to do his

[ Plasma Release : Infernal Rasenshuriken!]

Soon Ryu added Lightning, Wind, and Fire nature types to his Rasengan, making it look a Red Shuriken that was blazing red with blood colored lightning reminiscent of his Ketsuryūgan, The more he charged it the more he was making it more unstable than before

"NOW!"

The 5 hiding Ryu's suddenly appeared from the left over Kunai;s that were parried earlier by the Man when he was fighting the clones.

[Chakra Supression Seal!]

The Man sensing the danger of the seal killed four of the clones holding the seals but 1 got through and sealed his chakra, he tried removing it as he was parrying soon after he found Ryu charging at him with a huge red shuriken chakra construct!.

*BOOM!*

The Rasenshuriken blew him away at first then shrunk but soon made a huge explosion similar to a nuclear powered bomb.

Soon Yasaka fused out.

"Yasaka? I'm out of chakra?" He looked at the fox

"Yes master Ryu, that one took everything from you"

"Can you unsummon yourself?" Yasaka tried but she couldn't

"This! it appears as we really are in another dimension" Yasaka worriedly look at Ryu.

The man soon stood up with tattered clones with one of his arms still burning and the other still holding his scythe.

"That hurts you know" the man soon spat blood as he was getting ready for another round!

"Ryu-sama the man still has at least 50% Chakra!"

"Fuck! There's only one way I haven't tried it since I absorbed Hamura's chakra but!"

[ Eight Gates : Gate of Wonder OPEN!]

[Ketsuryūgan!]

[Blood Arts : Phantom!]

Soon Ryu's extinguished chakra was suddenly pumped up more but this time his Chakra didn't turn blue but rather red!

"Ryu-sama Your Eyes!" Yasaka yelled as she saw

Ryu's Ketsuryūgan evolved from just a single bar to a bar consisting of a Cross but the bar colors were now gold, little did they Know Suijin was slowly unlocking the 2nd seal out of the 5 seals.

'This? is this chakra? or is this blood? AH I'll think about it later!'

Soon Ryu charged the Man with his increased speed once more soon both of them were engaging in a high speed battle creating after images of their clash.

As Ryu was fighting the man his head was suddenly filled with information on how to Utilize his Ketsuryūgan more 'What is this sudden information? I'll try It!'

*Clang!* Soon The man and Ryu were meters away from each other

"I take back what I said, you are fit to be Hamura's vessel but! I'll still Kill you!" The Man soon charged ahead in front of Ryu with lightning fast speed

[ Blood Release : Siphoning Rasengan! ]

Ryu formed a half Chakra construct and blood construct from his left hand and soon he also lunged the man not knowing what this rasengan could do!

Soon the two met before the man could hack down Ryu, The Rasengan slammed first into his chest, contrary to what both of them would expect the man wasn't blown away rather all his blood and chakra was getting sucked by the Rasengan!

Ryu soon pushed through his hand to the mans chest, the man tried to get away but he was still sucked in!

'What is this cursed Jutsu! My Chakra and Lifeforce! I can't counteract it!' as he was getting fatigued by the second he was in contact with it

'Broken' was what Ryu thought of the new jutsu

Ryu pushed his hand further and soon unbeknownst to the both of them the man was pushed back to a wall and soon he slowly started getting paler than before and thinner.

Soon the rasengan stopped siphoning and suddenly shrunk in sight leaving Ryu's arm still thrust forward but before he could celebrate the pebble sized Rasengan entered into Ryu's body.

When it entered Ryu Convulsed and fell to the ground!

All his jutsu's were undone and soon Ryu was breathing for life on the ground as he struggled with the influx of life force and chakra in his system, and soon he passed out.

Soon a man appeared in a blood construct looking at Ryu and The Man

"*Sigh* It would have been better if I told him the backlash of that technique but I don't think its a backlash for him with Hamura's Chakra I think?"

"Where is this? I know this isn't earth but somewhere else, looks like I'll have to read that Man's memories" The man sighed as he knew he used parts of his soul to do this meaning he could now only meet his son twice instead of thrice.

"Yasaka, you're alone with Ryu take care of him there's nothing to be worried about this space is isolated, as to where it is all I know it is far from the Otsutsuki's Main Branch surveillance area. "

"Yes Eito-sama"

"Come here I'll give you the memories instead I believe Ryu won't wake up anytime soon"

Yasaka soon came forward and had her head poked with Eito's hand as information went into her head.

"Where's Ryu and Naruto!" Guren shouted

"I don't know, I could only see Ryu was teleported away and Naruto was taken along with Princess Koyuki!" Sasuke said

"Don't worry about them, Naruto has been training he lot he can survive this, as for Ryu, He'll probably pop up in the ship sooner or later for now we have to get princess Koyuki and Naruto Back!" As soon as Kakashi said that he saw Yoru ready to leave and she shouted

"Let's get going then! They ain't gonna wait forever for us!"
