Chapter 34 - Chapter 36

Inside the home of Naruto and Dragon, four people were sitting and this was quite unusual since they never had any guests. Kō and Hinata was both sitting and watching the surroundings awkwardly.

"Naruto, why don't you demonstrate your haki. I am sure Hinata would like to see." Dragon finally said while sipping on some tea.

"SURE!" Naruto said and jumped up and rushed out of the room to quickly fetch something.

"Haki? What is that?" Ko said since he had never heard of anything like that.

"It's my own created technique. It's a sensor ability of sorts. I suppose i terms of observation and visual prowess, it rivals the Byakugan and the Sharingan." Dragon said and he completely floored Kō,

"WHAT!? It rivals our two clans??!" He had actually flew up on his feet and was screaming in Dragon's face.

"Calm down, would you. Yes it is a similar technique at least in some ways." Naruto came back just as Dragon said this and he held a piece of cloth in one hand and a practice sword in the other.

"Kō, won't you help Naruto with this demonstration." Dragon said and Naruto walked forwards and handed him the sword and then proceeded to put on the blindfold.

Kō followed Naruto onto the fighting ring that was located in the middle of this huge room. They were sitting and drinking tea in the practice hall and not in the living quarters above the hall.

"Now Kō, try and hit Naruto in any way you can. Don't hold back." Dragon said and signalled for them to start with his hand.

"A-Are you sure?" He asked Naruto who only gave him a thumbs up while standing there, now without his vision.

"Okay?" Kō took a stance and Naruto readied himself as well. He took a second to inspect Naruto's stance and he was impressed by the boy. 'He is well trained' Is the thoughts swimming around inside his head.

Kō dashed towards Naruto and as Dragon said, he didn't hold back at all. "HAH" A sword swing aimed at Naruto's head came flying but at the last second Naruto avoided it perfectly. Kō was shocked for a second and thought it was a fluke at first, so he attacked again and again.

'What's going on??! No matter how I come at him, no matter the speed. It's like he sees it happen before it happens. This is done without any special kekkei Genkai. What a fantastic technique he has created."

Kō thought as he stood there breathing hard. Not because he was tired, no, it was more because he thought he was gonna have a heart attack or something similar from all this shock he was experiencing.

"That's enough! Kō, what do you think of it?" Dragon said with a hint of pride. He knew it was not something he invented, but here he would make them believe that, because why wouldn't he. A technique like this would hold power both in politics and in battle.

"I have never seen anything like it. I can see why people would think he is using something like the byakugan or the Sharingan." Kō was shaken from this display.

"Master Dragon, are you able to share this technique?" Kō didn't see any way to address Dragon other then "master". What he had created here was one of the strongest techniques he had ever seen. Naruto that was just as kid could see every attack that he made without any special eyes.

"No, I will only teach this to my students. It belongs to my martial arts school. No one else will get their hands on it." He had already decided to share it only with his students.

"Then, I have a request," Kō said and before he continued he went down on his knees in front of Dragon. Both Hinata and Naruto was shocked by this, they had no idea why he would do this.

"Yes. I already know what you're going to ask of me. And i was already planning on taking her in eventually with a few others i have had my eyes on." Dragon said and smiled at the kneeling man.

"Really? Then maybe she has a chance for a better life." Kō were painfully aware of Hinata's situation and her feelings on the matter. He was always looking for ways to ease the burden on her, but with his status within the clan and the village, he couldn't do anything for her.

"If you're worried about her situation, then don't be. My students will forever be under my protection for as long as they follow the rules of the school."

"Thank you so much, Master Dragon." Kō said with sincerity in his voice. There was nothing he valued more the Hinata's safety. If she could become a student here then that would maybe give her a better life then the clan life would for her.

Kō was also fully aware of what he was doing by asking this of Dragon. If the clan learned of this, then the punishment would be severe to say the least.

"Now it's best if you return home. There is a long day tomorrow since the academy starts tomorrow. It was nice with some company, don't you think so, Naruto?" Dragon turned his eyes to the kids that just sat in silence and watched this weird spectacle play out in front of their eyes.

"eh, ye, I suppose so." He said with a little tired voice. Using haki and battling someone much older and stronger then himself had made him super tired and he really just wanted to go to sleep now. Just because he could dodge the attacks did not mean Naruto was stronger then Kō.

"Have a safe trip home, both of you. Take care now." Dragon said and both he and Naruto waved to Hinata and Ko s they were leaving.

"G-Good b-bye N.Naruto" Hinata said while looking at the ground with a completely red face.

"Goodbye Hinata. See you tomorrow." Naruto waved them off with a happy smile but immediately ran off to bed when the front door finally closed.

'I should visit Gildarts and Sylvia soon. Maybe I could bring them here then link the two worlds together. If I am gonna create an empire in all the universes then maybe the best way to do it is to link them all together.' Dragon sat there in silence and pondered about the future.
