Chapter 32 - Side Story: Gundam

Naruto Uzumaki also known as Lord Seventh was the Hokage of Leaf village and overall leader of the world. He was an all rounder and worked day and night to bring peace for the world.

He directed the development of the world and fought for its survival. He had done it all and started from the bottom.

The man was a legend but all legends had one thing in common, they were dead and so Naruto was not an exception as he succumbed to his foe.

The fight with the Otsutsuki King had dragged on for months and Naruto finally defeated him along with Sasuke Uchiha, Toneri and his sons, Boruto and Kawaki.

Naruto made the final move but the enemy broke down his defenses and his world went black.

---------------------------------

Naruto thought he would join the afterlife, the pure land where his parents were waiting but something unexpected came into sight once he saw the light.

He saw an unusual sky with two moons and felt his body move normally.

Naruto looked around to see that he was on the outskirts of a city, which was just a few miles from him.

'I am alive. How?' Naruto questioned as checked his body and found Kurama missing along with majority of his power

'Okay, how did someone take away my physical powers as well? This is definitely not my body.' Naruto concluded that the body was newly made to look like him but lacked his actual power and energy levels

Naruto sat down on the ground as he checked his body clearly and was sure of his conclusion.

'Will it doesn't matter? I just need to rebuild enough to get back home. Who gave me this second chance though?' Naruto questioned as he got up from ground and found a phone

"Enjoy fighting with Giant Robots." Naruto read the message that had mini sticker of him wearing the Hokage hat and doing the victory sign

'Could it be? Am I a clone?'

'Nah, a parallel universe Naruto sent me here from this evidence.' Naruto mused as he found an identity card and details in the phone

It seems everything was prepared for him except an actual job, a training area and resources. Naruto walked towards the city while thinking about the message, which implied that the current universe had high level of tech and not much on powers so he might need to understand these machines.

Naruto had learned a lot in his time after the war and could say he got this skill down but unless he saw the machine itself, Naruto wasn't that confident and would need to study the topic more.

'I can enjoy reading some books in peace.' Naruto thought with a smile as he didn't worry about his world as the enemy was dead with him

Naruto didn't worry too much about gaining new skills as he also had the power to just read peoples mind.

-----------------------------------

Naruto used the card that needed to be scanned to enter the city and found it a lot different from his home as the buildings were made of different materials and he could see holograms being utilized a lot.

Naruto walked around casually like he owned the place to not show any suspicious behavior and walked towards the library to excess the data.

On the way, he saw many humans but the occasional aliens of humanoid type. There were ones with blue, green and even orange skin color with horns and what not.

Naruto was fascinated by the sights but was not in the mood as he just went through a tiring battle so he just focused on finding the right books.

Naruto found books on history and geography to help him understand the world first before he can try something new.

------------------------------------------

The city he was currently in was called Athens and it was on the Planet, Krypton. This Solar system was part of the Renault Empire and consisted mainly of human population with the rare drop of alien blood.

The Empire came into being 200 years ago after a family with power from Brien Republic left to the unknown systems at the outskirts of the heart of the universe.

The closer the system was to the heart, the stronger or smarter the beings and with better resources and technology.

That means Renault Empire was at the lowest rung of the universe as third rate state with technology far behind high class states and only stayed above those with lesser planet, close to it or those systems similar to it.

The Empire was average in its own rank and had a very deep grudge with one of its neighbors, the Craig Republic.

The battle started out small for some exclusive resource but turned into full blown wars and three wars had already passed, where both sides lost a lot men, money and machinery.

The main source of combat was mobile suit, giant robots that could imitate humans or other specie to fight.

The mobile suit was not alone as they had Galactic ships, Titans that were only owned by top class states as they had enormous requirements for their huge size.

Naruto also found that nuclear weapons were banned and many rules were followed by the Universe, these rules were being enforced by the Universe Heart Association.

The Association recruited from everywhere and had the most military power, and it took the job seriously. It had destroyed planets before for the betterment of the universe, it followed the policy of the end justified the means.

Naruto put the books down and massaged his head, he had learned a lot in a single setting and needed to find a way to get better resources.

'Wars and crime isn't uncommon so I need ways to protect myself and while I am at it, let's bring peace to these poor people.'

'I will see if the royal family is worthy or not once I got the power.' Naruto mused as he returned the books and went towards his hotel, where a room had been booked for a week

Naruto ordered some food while taking a shower; he ate and went to sleep.

Tomorrow would be a better day and he would need to find a job.

'I could probably just steal some money.'

----------------------------------------------------

Naruto woke up the next day full of energy and got ready for a day of work. He took a bath and then ate breakfast before leaving the hotel to find his path.

Yesterday Naruto hadn't checked enough of the city so he decided to roam around to find anything interesting.

The city people weren't that different from back home; they ignored everything and did their own thing. Naruto knew he could do a simple job and find one easily with the use of genjutsu, no need for an interview so he was very easy going about it.

Naruto had a specific goal about roaming and that was finding who influenced it from the darkness, it was impossible for a place to not have people in the dark.

Naruto intended to take control of them and utilize their resources, got to take advantage of super powers or they will go to waste.

Naruto took a drink from a shop while distracting the people with an illusion and continued on his journey, the energy drink tasted like shit.

"Terrible like always." Naruto muttered

Naruto many adds for mech pilots, mech technicians, games and what not. There were shops for many things but Naruto realized that there were hardly any for Mechs.

For a large city it barely had two workshops and they were just repair shops, not builders and he hadn't heard about any nearby either.

'It should be too expensive for these people.' Naruto thought as he finally found a target, it was a man with a white suit.

Such a suit might make people think otherwise but Naruto could see from his looks how he was from the inside.

"Hey buddy, let's go have a talk." Naruto put his arm around the man's shoulder in a friendly manner and his voice hypnotized the man

They walked together as he took the information about the gang from his head. The gang was named White suits and for a gang they weren't really bad.

Naruto was impressed of their loyalty and even friendliness with the locals. The group was not from this planet but had run away from another solar system after a fight.

Now they were under the Aogiri Tree, the criminal organization at the underbelly of the Renault Empire. Luckily, White suits was just a small group under this giant tree or else it would be too troublesome using them.

Naruto let the man go and walked towards the base of the White Suits, it was a mention at the outskirts of the city. It was near the South Gate, the domain included an area as big as two football stadiums and countless buildings.

'It seems these guys brought some money here and I hope they got more.' Naruto smiled as he entered the place without an issue as he greeted the guard

The area had a wall all around it and Naruto could see two very large Hangars, which were used to store the mechs.

Naruto changed his direction towards the Hangar number 1, where the Boss stored his mech.

White suits didn't have many members, around 50. This amount looked tiny in comparison to the size of the place and they enjoyed the family treatment as the group valued it above all.

Everything sounded clean but the boss, Yamori, was an insane bastard when people made him annoyed. He enjoyed inflicting violence and torture on those that annoyed him.

--------------------------------------

Naruto entered the Hangar where the technicians could be seen maintaining the mobile suits. He looked around and found 3 types of mobile suits.

Yamori owned the best, a white Zaku II Mobility Type while his top two men piloted white and red Gyan. The rest of the crew piloted the Zaku II, which was designed specifically for mass production and was the most common mech in the Renault Empire.

For armaments, it has the 75mm machine gun left hand. It also had a powerful heat axe stored in a shield, and could also use the standard weapons, such as the 120mm machine gun or the 280mm bazooka.

The Gyan was a robot that had a powerful beam saber as its primary weapon, it also has a large, circular shield with 60 needle missiles and 25 hide bombs (space mines) which are used to lay traps for intended targets. The appearance of the Gyan, with its silver armor and Pickelhaube helmet design, has a strong resemblance to a medieval armored knight.

Naruto found Yamori's choice interesting as the Zaku II was actually weaker then Gyan but variant provided better mobility and provided bigger explosions with its new bazooka along with a more advanced heat tomahawk.

'He could have gotten something better with a little higher price. Maybe he has some memories with this series.' Naruto mused as he looked at the beauties, these mechs were just wonderful and something he had never seen before nor thought of

"What are you doing?"

"Good, you are here. I will be taking over now Yamori. I am your boss from now on." Naruto muttered as he looked back to find Yamori

Naruto walked towards him and stared into his eyes, this was a deeper mind control tactic and Yamori won't even remember why he accepted the decision.

"Of course, do you need anything Boss?" Yamori asked in a calm manner

Naruto only made him accept Naruto as his boss and didn't bother with his personality as he didn't want to deal with zombies.

"Nothing much but gather basic books on mechs from physics to computer programming. " Naruto replied and Yamori commanded his subordinates to finish the task

"Boss, can I excuse myself?"

"No problem" Naruto said as he took the activation key for the Zaku II and entered the cockpit

The scene inside was of screens that showed what the cameras saw, a seat for the pilot, the many buttons and the controls.

If he hadn't took the memory from one of the members, Naruto would have been completely lost at the scene.

Naruto sat down and got a feel of the machine as he started it, the head technician had already arranged for everything so it was okay for him to walk it out.

Naruto had only taken memories of an amateur but it was enough for him to operate it without an issue. He walked the giant out of the hangar, moved it around slowly and mock tested the weapons.

Naruto couldn't shoot the weapons as it would destroy his new property but he found the weapons really strong as the machine gun would easily kill genins.

The bullets moved faster than mach 5 and the Bazooka along with heat axe could easily kill Jounins, if it hit.

Chunin and above could easily take down this robot because of the speed and mobility advantage while it could survive some hits.

'And this just bottom of the barrel, maybe there are some mobile suit that could even rival my original power.' Naruto was finally starting to actually feel the enticement of these giant machines and there threat to his safety

"Let's go practice piloting in the virtual world" Naruto muttered as he decided to put the Zaku back and find a virtual pod for himself, to play the game Metal Empire

It was the top game in the universe as you could find players from all star systems. This game provided the most realistic experience for pilots and mech designers.

This game was the starting point of each designer and pilot as it provided a platform to perform on without getting injured or losing too much money.

Naruto was planning to register as both, he wanted to make his own design and fight using it for double the fun.

'I will learn from the experience and make a design that will suit me.' Naruto didn't think anyone had his experience and powers so he needed to make a mobile suit personally to utilize those advantages

---------------------------------------

Naruto entered the mansion after asking Yomori about the Virtual reality pod, it owned by his son Kaneki.

The place was lavish like those nobles, not something that he cared about as Naruto lived in a normal place with a research lab and testing area plus a training area.

"Okay, I guess not so normal." Naruto muttered as he realized that his home consisted of whole dimensions

The blonde overlord walked up the stairs towards the room and came across the kid, he had slim but strong body with white hair and red eyes.

Kaneki was watching a mobile suit battle between champions of different star systems.

The battle seems very nasty and death was likely for one of them, which kept the boy distracted.

Naruto smiled and shook his head as it reminded him of Boruto and entered the room with the pod.

It was like a metal coffin with glass cover, Naruto had an idea how it worked as they had worked on this in his world so nothing new from this item.

Naruto had even increased the realism in his world while this pod lacked that much, Chaka abilities accelerate development.

He took a breath and entered the pod after opening the glass cover,which closed as he lay down.

Naruto found the options and a mechanical voice asked if he wanted to start.

"Start" Naruto said and saw the world change as he netered the virtual space where he got option to choose the game

Naruto chose the Metal Empire and found himself in Kaneki's Hangar in the virtual world as he was using his pass.

Kaneki had invested good money in this game but hadn't played this for some time as he had lost most of his interest.

The account was diamond ranked which was below Platinum and Empreror rank but it was good enough as it was extremely hard getting a higher rank with crazy requirements.

Naruto registered the account as a mech designer and started buying some virtual licenses to use those technogies from various companies after buying the license for a Gundam as he felt pushed towards it.

Gundam we're the highest quality of mech in each generation and usually existed in very small numbers because if their requirements.

If a Gundam became very common than it meant the technology had become absolete and new one would have popped up.

It was a premium product that ruled the battlefield.

It was bloody expensive as well so most nations would go bankrupt from buying a single unit.

Naruto found himself limited with cash in his choice so he chose a 2 star Gundam, which was a century old but still relevant to such a weak empire like Renault.

"Rx-93 V Gundam" it was personally designed by Amuro Ray an enhanced human from two centuries back when it he was the only Gundam pilot where the machines barely kept with his skills and needed quick upgrades

Amuro was a legend and still remembered to this day for his skill, this game gave an option to fight pilots of the past that had been studied very intensly.

Naruto found the history interesting but decided it was time to build his first mobile suit following the blue prints.

He needed a taste before taking the next step of designing his own.

Naruto didn't take long as he had already copied the skills of the engineers of the White Suit's along with his own skill.

The Gundam was beautiful and he could wait to ride the bad buy.

"Then without further delays, let's rumble." Naruto muttered as he entered the one on one challenge

Within a minute he found a match, a player named Rieji.

Naruto found himself in space where there was a space colony near him, his foe was not within sight.

Naruto checked out the functions of the suit and deployed the funnels, luckily he was used to multi tasking so using this style was the best for him.

Naruto put the shiled in front of him as he moved to the side to take cover behind the colony as beams came at him.

Naruto saw it was a modified Wing Gundam as the giant rifle pointed at him had released a thick blast that carved through the colony.

"Damn that's one monster." Naruto remarked as he had already moved out of the target area as he sensed the danger and dashed towards his enemy with full speed to take advantage of the recharge time

Wing was hard to pilot and was a mid and long ra g specialist with power of a heavy mech and speed of a light mech.

It was also extremely durable and Naruto knew his attacks would need quantity to do any damage to that monster.

The funnels cricled around him as Naruto shot with his own rifle while the Wing moved around and separated the giant rifle into two smaller ones and shot at him.

Naruto had to rely on his supernatural aneses to dodge those attacks and shot at the rifle with his own and the funnels while he chased and the Wing retreated.

The Wing lost one of the Rifles hand there it toward him as it exploded but Naruto was ready as it dashed at him with the sword.

"Let's see how good you are at close combat." Reiji challenged as he slashed at him and Naruto blocked with his shiled while the funnels peppered the for with beams from a sides, they were too distracting on the young teen.

Naruto smiled and fired at the rifle while dropping his own.

"I accept you challenge" Naruto replied as he took out his sword while kicking the Wing in the right knee

The funnels and the destruction of the the rifle damaging the Wing plus the kick had caued enough distraction that Naruto easily slashed through the head of the Wing.

"Ah, forgot" Naruto murmured as he realized that it was a robot not a person and had to dodge the slash at his cockpit, it brushed by very closely

Buy even then the battle wasn't that hard as he had extreme reflexes and senses to compensate for the inexperiance of the Gundam.

The funnels blasted the opening of the head while Naruto retreated quickly while taking the bazooka from the back and launched as the oppononet had no visual aid to hel him.

"Just a child." Naruto commented as the Wing's cockpit was finally damaged and the pilot killed

The scene changed and Naruto returned to the challenge screen as he got his rewards.

Naruto found Reiji and someone named Sei request for his friendship and accepted it, maybe they could be fun.

Naruto talked to then for a bit about battles and mobile suits to realise that Sei was the designer and one more knowledgeable than him, he designed for Reiji.

These two teens lived in the same city as him and ran a small shop of mobile suit toys.

"Then we can meet at your shop. I am Interested in models." Naruto sent as he started a new a battle

---------------------------------

Dxd world:

"So what do you think, Oppai Dragon? Want to play?" In another world, Naruto asked his slave as he lay on his feet

"Thank you so much, Master. I love it, how did you know I was a fan."

"I have eyes." Naruto replied as the room had Gundam posters and even toys

"Hehehe" Issei laughed as he was kicked by Naruto
