Chapter 7
Konoha: Civilian District
Naruto gives chase to the Sharingan eyed crow, but Konoha early in the morning is extremely risky since the Konoha Police Force/ Uchiha Clan are on patrol of the area. Naruto use the shadows, but the darkness slowly dies out from the slowly rising sun. The Crow stops from time when it is going too far from Naruto's range, but immediately flies when Naruto is close enough.
"Not making this easy for me, huh?" said Naruto as his Sharingan active eyes scan around to see the Konoha Police Force (A.K.A Uchiha Clan) everywhere in the streets and up on rooftops. "Can't let them catch me, Fugaku almost caught me twice, don't want this his final strike."
"Caw"
Naruto looks up to see the Crow on the dim-lit lamp post, grooming its feathers while it waits for Naruto. He sneaks pass the Police Force, who are mostly Genin-Ranked Clansmen of the Uchiha, luckily his Stealth Skill wasn't affected by this "Censorship" Fugaku put on him. But Stealth is not all he's got; his minion control is working as he uses the Browns to distract he Police if the path is impossible to walk through.
The distractions are chaotic, the Browns are throwing rocks at windows, urinating in trash cans which causes the garbage to spew out toxic smoke and making the trash cans melt from the minion's acid piss. They even started catching stray cats and shaving them with blunt rusty weapons, the sound of panicked mews from cats are a dead giveaway as the Konoha Police rush towards the source of the disturbance.
The path is clearer for Naruto as he doesn't need to hide and continued following the crow.
Somewhere in Konoha
Naruto followed that crow for 10 minutes while evade detection from the Konoha Police Force, but it finally stops when it perches on a water tower on one of the village's tall buildings. It ruffles it's black feathers and starts grooming itself. A message box appears in front of Naruto and reads out the message.

Naruto sighed and looked around before he starts climbing. He climbed building before, back when the village did it's annual "fox-hunts" on October 10th, to hide on rooftops and underneath water towers until the "fox-hunt" is over, he really hated his birthday and now knows why…partially.
He uses the drainpipes, windows and gutters hold on while climbing, luckily his gauntlet act as claws to help grip hold on walls if needed. He climbed up and now on top of the watertower where the crow still perches. He looks around and notices that the bird led him to another part of Konoha. In his view is the Ninja Academy with numerous training grounds, some caged to keep environment hazards out of the village.
Update Map?
Yes
No
Naruto clicked Yes and the update begins, he felt his eye tingle and glint a lime green for a brief second until the update is completed.
Update complete: Training Grounds unlocked
Naruto opened the Map of Konoha to see parts of the "fog" on the village vanish to reveal the training grounds. The Map of Konoha is still in complete. He notices that there are 3 sections of Konoha and he only unlocked 2.

The crow suddenly calls out and took off towards the Ninja academy, Naruto follows it immediately as it hastens the flight with the wind direction that leads to the designated building.
Academy: Rooftops
8 minutes later and the crow finally stops, the sun is finally up and the police force is dismissed for the day while some resume to their regular duties. The crow now perches on the shoulder of Megami, the mysterious Noh-masked gamer who is watching over the arriving students being greeted by Iruka Umino the Academy Teacher.
"You came, good" said Megami "Now we can talk"
"Out here of all places?" said Naruto "The Tower would've been safe to talk."
"Gamers don't know the meaning of "safe", Naruto" said Megami "We gamers thrive in the dangers of this world, and causing it. Plus, I need to show you something that I found here."
"What is it?" said Naruto
"When I was 5 years old, my mother took me on a tour to this academy so I can start my career as a Kunoichi," Said Megami "I was fascinated in being a ninja and wanted to protect Konoha after witnessing mass casualties from the Shinobi, nearly turned me into a pacifist. During the tour, my curiosity got the better of me and wandered off until I discovered a hidden room that leads me down beneath the academy. But I couldn't get in. That was the day I discovered I'm a Gamer, an RPG-class like you."
"Why couldn't you get in?" said Naruto with wonder.
"Two message boxes appeared when I approached the gateway, and words read Party Member required and Level 7 Required were shown to me." Said Megami "But despite it denying me entrance, the locked door which eluded me of entry gotten me curious. Quests are made for me to investigate, I spent years growing strong, trying to figure out what the door is, until I gotten close to the truth. When I was promoted to the Rank of Chunnin, I noticed Fugaku entering the academy. At first I assumed he was doing his monthly inspections as Police Chief, but he's been going in frequently more and more every evening.
I stayed hidden, eavesdrop on Fugaku's conversation with various members of the council but mostly with Kizashi Haruno and Homura Mitokado. More Quests throughout the years lead me into "Dungeons" scattered across Konoha and the Land of Fire, helping me grow strong and retrieve useful items and weapons and so on. But despite my progress and many attempts to break in, the messages remain…that is until I found out you awoken your Gamer powers… or rather granted them by Yami and the glorious Game Goddesses. I needed a party member to enter the hidden room and complete the mystery of our unknown enemies."
"So you're saying that you want to team up with me?" said Naruto
"Hai, if we team up we'll get what we're after, information about this enemy that caused the Gamer Purge in Konoha. And perhaps a way to eradicate that censor trap Fugaku place on you."
Megami approaches Naruto and opens his shirt to reveal a long thick black bar branded d on his stomach, covering the seal used to imprison the Kyuubi…or rather the Juubi.
"We must hurry, the Censor Trap will completely censor your powers and effect how your see, speak, think and hear. And we h*** don't want that."
Naruto heard Megami speak the word "Hell" but it can out as a loud bleep sound. The censorship on him is horrible, even hearing the censored profanity is much worse than uncensored.
"So, what do you say?" said Megami "Will you help me?"
Yes
No
Naruto is reluctant to accept but the offer so tempting would be foolish to refuse, especially if it leads him to the answers of one of his unanswered questions.
"Alright" said Naruto as he presses Yes and another message box appears in front of him.
Megami has joined your party
Megami II
WARNING: STATS LOCKED!
Due to the censorship, Naruto cannot read his new party member's stat. Not knowing how strong she is. Same goes for Megami as a message box appears in front of her.

WARNING: STATUS LOCKED
"The Censor Trap is more annoying than I believed" said Megami closing the message box. "But we'll deal with it, come."
Megami opens up the hatchway on the roof floor and enters it, Naruto follows her as they both infiltrate the academy while class now starts.
Academy: Halls
The hatchway brought Megami and Naruto to the ventilation ducts which leads down to the halls of the academy. Students and teachers are entering the classrooms at their own pace, which took them about 15 minutes until everyone enters their respected rooms with the academy bell tolls at the first stroke of nine. Megami quietly exits the vents and silently lands on the floor with a crouch. She catches Naruto who jumped off afterwards and now both are at the barren halls.
"This way" said Megami as her message boxs reads [Escort Naruto to Basement]
The message box in front of Naruto is an update of his current quest.

The gamers quietly walk across the halls while class starts as they each head toward the basement. Naruto is getting déjà vu from this place, especially he's been here in his previous life before he restarted it as a Gamer and Overlord. He can remember the 3 years he's been here from that previous life, the teachers hated him for the obvious reasons, not all since Iruka Umino has as neutral opinion about him. He doesn't see Naruto as a the Kyuubi nor does he blame him for the death of his parents. Even when Naruto discovered the truth back when he was tricked by Mizuki, Iruka's assistant. Mizuki, that son of a bitch is like the rest of Konoha and had the gall to use him for stealing the Scroll of Sealings and take the blame for it.
The hatred for Mizuki boils his blood and now adds in to Naruto's Kill List.
Mizuki's death will be no surprise and no doubt be a quest on this game he is playing. Mizuki will be indeed an enemy and possibly a mini-boss. But it will have to wait in the future, so the silver haired bastard is lucky…for now.
But whatever to do with Iruka will depend on the aftermath of the future conquest of Konoha when Naruto fully has enough strength, power and military might to invade the village. Iruka must choose to join the Overlord, or fall.
Naruto shifts his eyes to the door of his once again to be class room, peering through the window to see Iruka lecturing with his students.
"Almost here" said Megami "Ready?"
Naruto turns his head away and now to the back of Megami's head.
"Hai" said Naruto now pulling his hood, goggles and mask over his head and face.
Basement
Megami and Naruto made it to the basement without trouble, it is dark and damp down in the basement and it doesn't seem like anyone's been here for decades. Cobwebs and dust pollute the room along with the damp stench in the air. Shelves filled with broken training weapons, chairs and desks half eaten by termites and gnarled by rats, the area is nothing but a dump and forgotten to everyone…except for Megami.
"Behind the heap is the door I mentioned" said Megami "Come, help me clear the way"
"Sure thing"said Naruto as he raised his gauntlet and summoned his minions. "Clear the way!"
"Yes, Mastah!" said the minions as they start breaking the already broken chairs and desks, pushing the shelves and hoarding the old training weapons for them to use as actual weapons. Naruto and Megami wait for the minions destructively clear the room for them until the door Megami spoke about is revealed.
It is a metal portcullis that filled almost the entire wall opposite them. Naruto approaches the portcullis and it suddenly opens up with the sound of chains echoing from inside. Megami stands next to Naruto and both nod before they enter though the door. And as they enter, the portcullis starts to lower down and close behind them. Trapping them inside as they entered a dungeon.
Dungeon: F1
They enter through the first floor, the iron sconces light up the moment they set foot on the floor. Naruto draws out Sting while Megami remains calm and place her hand on his shoulder to reassure him.
"Don't worry, it does that" said Megami
"Not your first time in a dungeon?" said Naruto
"No, but this feels…different" said Megami "Stay alert but be discreet about, whatever lurks in this dungeon might go for a Preemptive strike. You may not be a ninja yet, but this might be the perfect opportunity to train a one."
"Is that an offer of being my sensei?" said Naruto
"Maybe" said Megami
She and Naruto started walking around the first dungeon floor, which the numerous rooms are linked with long corridors that might be primed with booby traps hidden in plain sight. They walk the first corridor, littered with clothed skeletons and partially painted in dried up bloodstains but the smell remains.
*Click*
A trap is triggered, spikes stick out from the ceiling and drop down to impale the 2 gamers from above. Megami is quick and dragged Naruto with her evade the row of falling spikes until they reached the first room.
The first room is suspiciously empty. Naruto frowned as he slowly drew out Sting and slowly walk further in the room with Megami following. They scan the area, and see nothing, not even some bones from unfortunate fools who dare enter this dungeon. As they wait for something to happen, nothing happened…what a disappointment.
"Damn, just an empty room" said Naruto unsheathing Sting and looked around. The room has 2 doorways ahead. "Should we split up or stick together?"
"Let's split up rendezvous back in this room" said Megami pulling a kunai and plants it hard on the floor. "I'll take the left corridor while you take the right one, if you spring any traps…"
"Yeah, yeah, I'll be careful" said Naruto as he and Megami divide and when though their chosen corridors. Each of the Corridors are booby trapped, the left one is riddled with saw blades on the walls and the right corridor has built in flamethrowers. Megami returned first as the room lead from said corridor is a dead end and infested with Nin-Bats. She dealt with the enemies and returned with some useful and interesting items.
Megami found Item(s):
Potions x5
Antidote x4
Kunai x3
Leather Spaulder
"A little beaten, but I think with some new leather straps will do the trick." Said Megami examining the leather spaulder before returning it to the inventory. The fight against the Nin-bats only gave her a few scrapes on her person since those kunai wielding bats are fast and resilient. But the battle was no problem and she took a potion to help heal her wounds, all that matters is that she returned to the rendezvous point… but Naruto hasn't returned.
"Hey! Little help here"
Naruto's voice is heard through the other corridor he went through, Megami waste no time and rushes through the right corridor, flames spew out from the walls, but she evades them swiftly and elegantly like a graceful dancer. After going through 4 metres of flame spewing corridor, she got though and saw Naruto stood still and standing in the centre of a red-light source, Megami followed where the light is coming from and sees a brass watchtower with an eye-like peak where a hooded man in a navy blue cowl and gold armour over the shoulders, chest and forearms. His face is covered in the shadow of the hood, muttering an indescribable dialect as he waves a lone septure, which I the source of the red light.
"Damn, it's a sentinel" said Megami as she recognized the strange hooded person. She takes out a kunai and paper and starts crafting an incendiary kunai. Hold on, Naruto"
She tosses the Incendiary kunai at the tower and it blew, killing the Sentinel and freeing Naruto.
"Thanks" said Naruto dusting himself and stretching his arms. "They just caught me by surprise"
I should've reacted to Juubi's warning sooner thought Naruto feeling a shamed to be caught in that secondary trap when he reached the room.
"I think we should remain together from now on" said Megami "If there's sentinels, then we need to be on full alert, their searchlights will stun you and remain forever immobile until…oh no."
"Oh no? what's this "oh no?" said Naruto
"If there's a Sentinel in this floor, them that means…quick, in the shadows" said Megami
Megami and Naruto hid in the dark part of the room, they stayed there for a few minutes until they hear footprints. Walking out the next corridor is a man wearing gladiator-like armour with a strange twin barrelled pack that's constantly pumping to circulate power and connected with a long pipe with a long nozzle. It grumbles as it saw the demolished sentinel tower and heads to the now deceased sentinel.
"Who is that" whispered Naruto
"An Eradicator, they are paired with Sentinels to increase security on the dungeon floors." Said Megami "I got caught by one and it wasn't pretty, got away by within the inch of my life years ago."
"What do they do?" said Naruto
"See that tank on his back?" said Megami pointing at the tank on the Eradicator's back. "It's a Dimensional Vacuum. Gamer or trespassers get caught in that are banished to their own dimensional prison and never return."
The Eradicator knelt to inspect the dead sentinel and sighed sadly at him.
"Damn it, first on the job and he ends up dead." Said the Eradicator. "The Commander is not going to be happy with this. Better keep the floor key with me at all times."
Naruto and Megami both realised something, this Eradicator has a key that leads to the next floor.
"He's got the Key?" whispered Naruto
"appears so…damn, this is complicated" whispered rubbing her head. "Eradicators are focused, they'll know when someone is sneaking behind them.
"So, what now?" said Naruto
"first, I'll examine him," said Megami as she uses Examine the Eradicator.
Eradicator
Warning: Data Protected
"Damn it, just as I thought" said Megami "I can't get anything on these guys."
"Just like the Sentinels" said Naruto, his eyes fixed on the dead sentinel. He used Observe on him before but got nothing too. It could either be the censor trap or that these people have a way to protect their info from unwanted attention. "They must be from that group you mentioned"
"Hai" said Megami frowning under her mask. Trying to find a way of getting the key from that Eradicator. Until a plan is formed. "Hang on, I have a plan"
Megami whispered it to Naruto and he listens to it, he pulls a smile as he likes this idea and believes it might work.
"And the moment we take the key, we head to the door, got it?" said Megami
"but we don't know where the door is." Said Naruto
"We just have to risk it." Said Megami preparing to leave the dark. "Ready?"
Naruto preforms handsigns and prepares a certain justu. "Ready"
"Wait for the signal" said Megami as she pulls out a kunai and tosses it at the upper corner of the room, the impact caught the Eradicator's attention and he aims his Dimensional Vacuum at the noise. "Now"
"Shadow Clone Justu!"
Naruto, or rather his clones jumps out of the shadows and tackles the Eradicator.
"What the, GRRAAOORR!" roared the Eradicator as he tries to shake the clones off him.
Naruto then snuck out and charges with his gauntlet high and booming, a handful of minions were summoned to assist him as he too jumps on the Eradicator with the minions joining him. The minions are targeting the vacuum while the Overlord and his clones are making the brute's day uneasy.
" .MEE!" roared the Eradicator as he turns on the Dimensional Vacuum and starts sucking the clone and minions one by one. But Naruto held on, stabbing his Sting on the unarmoured parts of the Eradicator's body. Naruto stay there for a little longer until he is forced to jump off.
"Megami, you got it?" exclaims Naruto
"Hai!" replies Megami "Come on, let's get out of here!"
"Right" said Naruto as he and Megami take their leave.
The Eradicator notice this and begins his chase for the 2 fleeting Gamers. He charges in like a raging bull, carrying his heavy vacuum and trying to get close enough to suck them into another dimension.
Naruto never looked back, he kept going and so does Megami. They ran through traps in long corridors, evade more sentinels in vast rooms. They didn't stop to fight the monsters they encounter because they need to get out of this floor and escape from the assaulting Eradicator.
"There, the exit!" exclaimed Megami as the door to the next door is in range.
"Open it, quick!" said Naruto as he pulls out a pair of Kunai and turns to tosse them at the charging Eradicator. The Kunai engulf in flames a few seconds later and cut off the path way with a stream of fire. The Eradicator stops to prevent any fire damage on himself and his dimensional vacuum. "Is it open?"
"Hai" said Megami, she wasted no time opening the door. "Come on"
Naruto nods and leaves the dungeon floor before the door closes.
Dungeon F2
Naruto and Megami made it through the next floor. They can hear the door bang when the Eradicator crashed into it. Naruto sighed in relief at this and turns to his partner.
"Anything else you want to share with me?" said Naruto
"No, apart from the Sentinels, monsters, Traps and Eradicators, there is nothing else to tell you about the dangers of the dungeon" said Megami "But at least we know that the Eradicators have the keys to open the other doors."
"You're saying that there are more of those brutes?" said Naruto slamming his palm onto his face. "This gets even better, first I get this damn Censor trap on me, next I'm in a dungeon and now I have to steal every floor key, one by one to go through each and every gate."
"I'm afraid so, dungeons like these have unstoppable or powerful enemies too strong for is to beat in our level. Whoever made this dungeon must be a professional, making it challenging for us to use.
"Ok, fair enough" said Naruto "Let's just get going and get through these floors in one piece"
Megami nods as she and Naruto venture on to explore more of the dungeon.
Dungeon F3
Descending to every floor can get challenging, especially with Sentinels and Eradicators patrolling in them. Apparently, this dungeon was designed for those who are Shinobi classed, meaning stealth is key with dealing these elusive foes. Dealing with Sentinels is no problem, but this alerts the Eradicators and puts them on high alert, increasing the complication for the 2 gamers of stealing the key from them.
But Naruto has a plan, he decided to find the Eradicator first before it either finds him or was alerted. He uses his Shadow Clones, to help scan the third floor and orders them to dispel if they hit a dead end or they are close to getting caught by the Eradicator or the Sentinels. Even if they spotted the door to the next floor, the Shadow Clones were given a mission, he can't risk using his minions as they are vulnerable to the Eradicator and the Clones are more expendable than those brainless imps.
Dungeon F4
The Fourth Floor is different, it is but a vast room with a bottomless pit. the only form of flooring for Naruto and Megami are a cluster of stone pillars big enough for only one person to stand on, and between the pillars is an array of traps such as retractable spikes, swinging blades, buzz saws, etc.
But despite the challenge, the door to other side is already open, waiting for someone to get across the death traps and pit to oblivion. The Gamers look at each other and then at the obstacle before them.
"Well, at least there aren't any sentinels and Eradicators around" said Naruto
"Don't be so sure, I went through a room like this before." Said Megami "There are many hidden surprises that Dungeons have."
Naruto sighed and turns on activates his Sharingan, his vision is more focused and looks like everything is going slow. He makes the first jump on the first pillar, Megami jumps on one next to his. They jump from pillar to pillar, evading the traps, timing their jumps right and whilst evading new traps triggered on some pillars, elevating more with Sentinels to immobilize the 2 Gamers, and with Eradicators to suck them down into another dimension. They both kept their distance from the upcoming threat, but their path to the door is now hard and dangerous. The traps are more focused there and quicker, but the 2 Gamers are giving all they have to get across the bottomless pit and reach the door to the next floor.
Dungeon F5
The Fifth Floor is once again occupied with Sentinels, but 2 Eradicators are now patrolling the corridors and rooms. Now sticking into the shadows, Naruto and Megami quietly sneak around the floor to find the door but also find treasure along the way. They managed to search the entire floor and got lucky of finding some chests.
Naruto found Item(s)
Potion x5
Antidote x5
Megami found Item(s)
Potion x5
Antidote x5
They found the door, now they just need to steal the key from one of the two Eradicators on patrol.
Dungeon F6
The sixth floor is no different, an Eradicator is patrolling the floor with Sentinels posted on the rooms. Naruto and Megami knew what to do, the usual for dungeon floors like this. Going through similar floors like this one is now like second nature to Naruto, even when he has a veteran Gamer with him. So, they stick to the shadows, evade those sentinels, search for the next door and steal the key from the patrolling Eradicator to descend to the next floor. Nothing interesting happens on that floor but at least you know what happened.
Dungeon F7
They reached the seventh floor, but it is only a single room. A big, empty room with literally nothing in it but a locked door on the other side. Still cautious, they slowly walk further in the room, expecting something to happen. Naruto still has his Sting unsheathed and Megami has her Katana unsheathed also. They waited, and they waited long but nothing happened.
"Does this take long for an ambush to happen?" said Naruto
"Not when you least suspect it" said Megami "But floors like this are predictable, but it appears that they are aware that we know about the ambush."
"So, are we going to stand here and wait for something to happen or let this happen already?" said Naruto
Suddenly beam of light shines on Megami, immobilizing her while Naruto jumps back and follows the light to it's source. The light is beamed by a strange creature that resembles a floating eye with tentacles-like tendrils over it's stubby body. Naruto tries to use Observe to identify the creature.
Overseer
Warning: Data Protected!
"Of course" said Naruto until something landed on the floor with a loud boom and turns to see an Eradicator aiming his Dimensional Vacuum at him. "*sigh*, great"
The Eradicator fires his Vacuum at Naruto, a beam of blue light surrounds Naruto, ensnaring him in a tight bind.
"NARUTO!" exclaims Megami, still immobilized by the Overseer's Gaze. Feared that Naruto is now caught and about to be sucked into his own dimensional prison.
But Naruto remains still, he can feel himself getting pulled in but his body remains on the stop. This confuses the young Overlord as he looks around and sees that nothing is making him move. The sensation is like standing in front of a powerful gale while being knee deep in the ground. Naruto slowly moves to see if he can see any resistance in his movements. But his first step feels normal, he then jumps but nothing abnormal about it.
"Wow, this is new" said Naruto
"Oh, good! Your Anchor is still intact" said Juubi
"Anchor?" said Naruto until a message box appears in front of him.
Skill Discovered: Dimensional Anchor
Dimensional Anchor: A seal used to counter dimensional banishments, like from the Uchiha's Kamui and other Time-Space Jutsus of any kind.
"You knew about this?" said Naruto to Juubi
"Of course, I gave it to you the moment I became whole and sealed up when you were a baby." Said Juubi. "I did it to protect you and keep you here in this realm."
After reading the message box and hearing Juubi's explanation, Naruto unconsciously pulled a sinister smile and slowly looks at the Eradicator, now confused and scared at the fact that Naruto is not affected by the Dimensional Vaccum.
"Ok, if I'd known about this, 7 floors ago!" said Naruto while exclaimed at that last part of the sentence. "This would've given me a Level Boost…oh well. Juubi, I need a boost."
"Sure thing" said Juubi channelling her chakra into Naruto's system.
The Demonic chakra is now pumping and flowing into the Overlord's Chakra system, the feel is intoxicating and he is glad that the censor trap hasn't affected the chakra.
"Oh yeah, now we're talking" said Naruto before he charges at the Eradicator.
"I don't understand, he has the trap on him but nothing's happening!" muttered the Eradicator blocking Naruto's attack with the vacuum. "Heathen! Why aren't you weak from the Censor Trap!"
"You know about the trap?" said Naruto raising one brow at the Eradicator.
"Of course, the trap is how we incapacitate Gamers like you for us to banish. We were censoring you tracks the moment you were marked."
"Really?" said Naruto with interest. "And do you know how to remove it?"
"Never, I rather die!" exclaimed the Eradicator.
"That's fine" said Naruto before poofing in smoke and a broken pillar is in his place. Naruto is now on the Eradicator's shoulder and Sting is close to his neck. "I would've kill you anyway"
With that, Naruto plunged Sting into the Eradicator's neck and slices across until the enemy collapses on the ground dead. But this only summoned more Eradicators, 2 this time.
They roared at Naruto and charges at him, but the Gamer Overlord turns and charges at them, he performs Shadow Clone Jutsu and produced 5 clones. They sequenced a combo attack and each spoke a syllable.
"Na!"
"Ru!"
"To!
The 3 Clones each uppercut the Eradicator until he is 6 feet high off the ground.
"Over!"
"Lord!"
The remaining 2 clones jump high and both prepare to hammer their fists to the now airborne Eradicator.
"TAKE DOWN!"
They slam the Eradicator down have that the impact is enough to break his neck. One Eradicator is down, one more to go.
Naruto and his 5 clones each draw out a kunai and form in a circle. The Eradicator looks around and growls at the young Overlord.
Naruto smirks and channel chakra into it.
"Ready?" said Naruto to his clones.
"Ready!" replied the clones.
"Na!"
"Ru!
"To!"
"Uzu!"
"Ma!"
"Ki!"
Naruto and the Clones all lower down and prepare to dash.
"Kunai Dash!"
"Kunai Dash!"
"Kunai Dash!"
"Kunai Dash!"
"Kunai Dash!"
"Kunai Dash!"
He and the clones dashed through the Eradicator, plunging their kunai in vital points on their body, even if they are armoured.
"Guh!" groaned the Eradicator collapsing on the ground, dying.
Naruto sighed in relief while tossing a kunai right into the Eradicator's eye, blinding it and disrupting the beam of light, just enough for Megami to escape and strike it down for good.
"Arigato, Naruto" said Megami sheathing her sword
"No problem" said Naruto expecting a message box after winning his fight against the Eradicators. "Strange, where's my battle report?"
He then heard the dying Eradicator laugh lowly, the Overlord turns to the dying enemy and slams his foot on the brute's armoured head.
"And what's so damn funny?" said Naruto
"You fool, you don't know anything about the Censor Trap" said the Eradicator. "It does more than just censor indecent things like Profanity and pornography, and not just for Eradicators to tracking you down. The Censor Trap is used to weaken the Gamer's abilities, limit them enough for us to take them down and either kill or exile them to another dimension."
"Explain" said Naruto adding more pressure on his foot on the Eradicator's head.
"For example, limited ammo for Shooter Gamers, brittle weapons for Action Gamers, Disability of Level ups for RPG Gamers, heh, heh, heh, you will never grow stronger again. You will remain weak, unable to level up and grow powerful."
The Eradicator laughed his last laugh, and Naruto grit his teeth at his bitter victory.
"Let's go" said Naruto walking away from the now dead Eradicator.
"Hai" said Megami following Naruto.
Meeting Hall
After going through seven booby-trapped floors and evading the sentinel's gaze. Naruto and Megami are now above what appears to be a secret meeting room, dimly light with iron wall sconces, the vast room supported by thick stone pillars with banners between each pillar, the banners are 5 metres long, red with gold accents and an emblem of a white mask with black "X" over the mouth and a black bar over the eyes. In the middle of the room is a large mahogany table, which has the same emblem on it. But around the emblem are words Naruto had never saw before, he cannot read it well but it reads "Censores fideli Iustitiae" on the top and "Tu solum vivis unum tempus" on the bottom.
2 rows of gothic style chairs surround the table. Each sitting on the chair are about a dozen or more figures wearing red hooded cowls with pauldrons, gauntlets and metal masks that match the emblem. However, there is one that's dressed slightly different and believed to be the leader of the group, he is wearing a silver cowl with gold accents and an egg-shaped crown with the same colour with gold leaves and flames. His face is concealed with the same metal mask but the marks are more defined.
"Censores fideli Iustitiae!" shouts the leader in the Silver Cowl
"Censores fideli Iustitiae!" shouts the members in the red cowls
End of Chapter
