Chapter 13: Will someone turn on the AC?

I OWN NOTHING!

It had been a few weeks since Naruto had been deputized and formed a team with Ben and Rook. The trio had bonded well over time. Rook was immediately revealed to be very by the book and he didn't have a good grip on earth lingo, but he was adapting…slowly.

The days were usually slow, but at times they were hectic when they got busy.

First, some maniac named Fistrick started kidnapping electric aliens. In the end, Naruto and Ben had to hold him down while Rook performed an insane trick shot, which would have made Tenten, in his opinion, fall to her knees and beg to marry him. Though, on a positive note for the whole issue was that Ben got a new alien who he dubbed Gravattack.

Then two guys named Octagon and Rhomboid Vreedle brothers came down looking for some alien doomsday weapon. Naruto was immediately reminded of the two stupid brothers from his mission to capture Mizuki when he escaped from jail. The two accidently activated the weapon which everyone thought would destroy the universe. However, just before it went off it powered down and displayed a message that read, "You schmucks. Did you really think we'd leave a universe destroying weapon behind?" The two brothers mentioned the big frog being mad at them before they were hauled off, leading to Ben and Rook explaining that they were apparently hired by a race called to Incursions to get it. Of course, the aliens who left it behind were smart enough to have it deactivated.

Then Doctor Animo, an old enemy of Ben's who Naruto thought might get on the Aburame and Inuzuka clan's personal hit lists, given how he treated animals. Anyway, he broke out, tried to create a giant ant farm out of the earth, but he ultimately failed. However, Animo had apparently learned from past failures. He had set up a mutant ant as a decoy. As of that day, Animo was at large and was currently being looked for.

It was one of the slow days. It wouldn't have been that bad if it wasn't for the heat wave that Bellwood. Back on his planet, Naruto was now sitting in a bar drinking a smoothie. The cold beverage helping him deal with the heat.

Naruto was drawn from his thoughts as he felt his communicator go off.

Naruto brought it out and said, "Hey, Magister Tennyson. What do you have for me?"

"What makes you think I have a job for you?" Max said, "How do you know I didn't just call you to say hi?"

Naruto answered, "Because nobody does so to say hi. Nobody ever came over to say hi on my planet and this doesn't seem that important right now."

Max sighed on the other end of the phone and said, "Our satellites picked up a ship entering the planet's atmosphere. I want you to investigate where they landed."

Naruto asked, "What happened to Ben and Rook?"

Max answered, "Ben and Rook are a little preoccupied. Some aliens from Undertown have stolen a nuclear fusion device and they were nearby when it happened. They're currently chasing them down."

Naruto nodded and said, "Okay. Where is it?"

Max answered, "It landed a few miles away from where you and Ben fought the first time."

Naruto answered, "Got it."

With that, Naruto got up and made his way towards the forested area.

A short walk and some roof running later…

Naruto slid to a stop as he came to the familiar area. Naruto examined his surroundings, looking for any source of a ship. Closing his eyes, Naruto unleashed a pulse of chakra, utilizing his sensor abilities. After a few moments of scanning, Naruto sensed something that he couldn't see.

"There it is," Naruto said, "Now who was driving?"

Before Naruto could process what was happening, his danger sense went off. He ducked just in time for a pink and gray fist to shoot past his skull. Naruto spun on his heel and delivered a back kick to his opponent.

Naruto spun around and saw an alien clutching his stomach from the kick. He wore mainly pink armor with, in Naruto opinion, looked like gray high-tech doors or something on his arms. His mask had four gred lines on it.

Naruto blinked in confusion as he saw the alien stand up.

"Who the hell are you?" Naruto asked, "And what do you want with me?"

The alien responded speaking a gibberish that Naruto couldn't understand.

"What?"

The alien responded by transforming his arm into cannons and opening fire. Naruto dodged between the lasers, and charged forward, getting in close, delivering another punch to the alien's stomach. Naruto followed up with an uppercut and grabbed the alien by his ankle, slamming him into the ground.

Naruto brought up both fists, but the alien shot backwards, firing up his jetpack. He flew backwards and opened fire again, launching disks. Naruto bobbed and weaved between the attacks, only getting grazed and having his shirt cut.

Naruto charged forward again. This time however, he used the shushin, vanishing from sight and straight up tackling the alien to the ground. Now on top, Naruto started punching, greatly damaging the alien's mask, leaving dents and starting to crack it.

However, as Naruto wound up for a particularly large punch his danger sense went off again. Naruto shot out a hand and caught, what he quickly recognized to be a grenade. Naruto threw it away, but the alien beneath him, brought out a pair of retractable knuckles from his hand and sucker punched Naruto. The boy was thrown away as the grenade exploded, kicking up dirt and forming a crater.

Naruto got up quickly, the large bleeding bruise on his face already healing.

Naruto turned towards the source of the grenade to see another alien. He looked almost identical to the first, only not as tall or bulky, wearing purple, slightly-reddish armor with various pouches on his belt, and his joints.

"Now there are two of them?" Naruto asked, "Who are you guys?"

The new alien didn't answer, as he simply released more gibberish as tiny arms popped out of his shoulders as he aimed blasters at Naruto.

"Uh oh," Naruto said.

The lasers fired at Naruto. Naruto dodged, but a stray blast hit the larger alien in the shoulder, making him cry out in anger and shake his fist in anger.

Naruto proceeded to charge at the smaller of the two. The alien charged up his weapons and fired, only for Naruto to perform a substitution at the last second with the larger of the two aliens. The larger one fell to his knees, crack forming in his armor.

The smaller of the two looked shocked as he attempted to approach his brother. However, Naruto wasn't going to be idle. He charged forward and used the larger of the two as a spring board, pushing the armored alien's face into the dirt, and launching himself at the other one. His knee connected with his mask, cracking it. Naruto then proceeded to haul the alien into the air and slam him face first into the ground, burying him up to his neck in the sun-dried earth. The alien soon went limp. Naruto turned his head towards the other to see him not moving as well.

Naruto said, "Hey, Max, I found who came to earth. Don't recognize them though."

Max responded, "Who were they? What are they?"

Naruto answered, "I don't know. Um…purple armor with a lot of weapons. Spoke in gibberish."

Max answered, "Hold out your badge. Point it at them."

Naruto pulled the smaller of the two out of the ground, and then flipped over the other. He did as the magister said and pointed it at them.

"Sixsix and Sevenseven," Max said, through the communicator, "Bounty hunters, mercenaries, assassins. Basically, whatever you pay them to be."

Naruto said, "What do they want with me?"

Max answered, "Probably a member of Psyphon's old empire before you, Ben, and Rook shut it down. By my guess, someone put out a hit on you."

Naruto said, "Great. I thought this kind of stuff would have been left back on my planet."

Max sounded concerned through the communicator as he said, "You've had hits put out on you?"

Naruto said, "To be honest. I wouldn't be surprised if they did something like that at one point."

Max said, "Your people are crazy."

Suddenly, a loud rumble went through the ground.

"What was that?" Naruto asked.

Back at plumber HQ…

Max yelled, "What happened?"

One of the computer guys yelled, "We are pikcing up a huge spike in radiation near the undeveloped area of undertown."

A female nearby yelled, "Temperatures are rising steadily. Surface scans show that the rise in heat is causing magma to form in the rivers in Bellwood."

A sudden beep followed by Ben's voice said, "Grandpa. We have a problem."

Max said, "Ben. What is going on? Nobody in Undertownis supposed to have a nuclear reactor."

Ben explained, "It's a group of aliens called the Kraaho. They're the ones who stole the nuclear device. By the look of it they're using the generator to heat up their home because it's too cold."

Max said, "Why couldn't they get one of those oversized heaters? Rook, Ben, I want you tog et down there and shut the thing down before Bellwood gets a new tourist attraction in the form of a volcano."

Ben agreed and shut down the communication line.

Max then said, "The rest of you try and get as many people to safety as you can. Naruto stay where you are. It doesn't look like your anywhere near the lava rivers. I'll send someone to pick you and your new friends up."

Back with Naruto…

Naruto nodded and said, "Okay. This is crazy. First living batteries, then a giant ant farm, and now aliens who don't like the AC. If this planet doesn't kill me it'll make me paranoid. Am I right?"

He asked this to the unconscious aliens and got some gibberish back.

"Right."

Naruto blinked as he realized he'd gotten an answer and spun around to find a female version of the duo who had just attacked him.

Naruto blinked and said, "You're with them. Aren't you?"

The alien girl nodded.

"If I asked you to lay down your arms and surrender, would you?"

The woman shook her head no.

Naruto sighed and said, "Well, I tried."

Naruto lashed out, but the alien woman blocked the attack and countered by pistol whipping Naruto in the face and knocking Naruto away. She prepared to fire, but Naruto focused his chakra quickly and swung his arm, releasing a series of wind blades that cut through her armor and knocking her back. However, she caught herself with her jetpack and fired a shot at Naruto's communicator, destroying it.

"Well crap."

Naruto shot forward and grappled with the girl, easily overpowering her, and crushing her guns in their combined grip. Naruto then delivering a sharp headbutt, stunning her, and then threw her like a tin can.

The woman recovered and pulled out a pair of lightsabers.

Naruto said, "Oh come on. Max you really need to give me my suit and weapons back!"

Naruto dodged a few well aimed sword swings, and then caught her by the wrist. The woman swung up her leg, aiming to kick Naruto in the groin, only for him to block it with his shin, wincing from the strength behind it, and a blow to the shin almost always hurts.

Naruto then proceeded to slam his free knee into her stomach, and followed up with two more, before punching her into the shoulder and an uppercut, knocking her to the ground.

Naruto walked up to his fallen foe and prepared to stomp on her head, only for a wire to wrap around his neck and pulled him away.

Naruto glanced back to see that Sixsix had reawakened. However, that was all he had time to do before he was hauled into the air and then slammed into the ground with a loud shout.

Naruto could feel his wounds already healing, but he was cut off from his concentration when he looked up to see the female alien juping into the air and with a large energy saw in her hands. Naruto focused wind chakra into his legs and threw outa kick that sent out a shockwave that knocked the woman back. He then focused his lightning chakra into his body sending them through the wires that were wrapped around his neck.

Sixsix let out a scream of absolute agony before Naruto pulled on the wire like a ripcord, pulling the purple armored alien into a clothesline, sending him crashing to the forest floor.

Sevenseven caught the female alien and they both charged forward, the former brandishing his cannons while the latter had pulled her swords back out. Naruto hefted Sixsix over his head and threw him in a manner that resembled a gorilla throwing a barrel.

The alien slammed into the attackers, knocking them to the ground. However, the trio immediately got up.

Naruto, realizing that this was taking forever, decided it was time to end the fight. Naruto focused a ton of chakra into his hand. Clenching his fist, he refocused it into wind chakra. Naruto drew his fist back as the alien trio neared and brought his fist down on the ground hard.

"Heaven's Rising Fist!"

The punch shook the ground causing the trio to stumble, but before they could use their jetpacks to get away, a massive twister erupted from the ground, sending all three skyward.

'Thank god this little experiment worked,' Naruto thought, 'Now I got to finish this.'

As the twister began to fade, Naruto focused his chakra and made a familiar cross-shaped sign with his hands. Three clones formed and rode the winds, riding as high as the others. All three unleashed brutal punches that shattered their jetpacks.

The trio were then slammed together, and then driven down hard into the ground, knocking them all out cold.

Naruto smiled as he looked down at the large crater that had formed from the punch he had use, some trees were nearly blown away, having lost a lot of leaves, and the trio of mercenaries were knocked to the ground and passed out.

With a smirk, Naruto said, "Eat your heart out, granny. I wonder what would happen if I tried that with lightning chakra?"

Naruto was drawn to the sound of several vehicles approach. He immediately recognized one of them as the proto-truk, a vehicle acquired by Rook during the whole Fistrick incident.

Naruto saw the other two members of his team get out of the truck, as well as several plumbers who immediately began to examine and arrest the three assassins.

"Dang man," Ben said, "Did you do all this?"

Naruto said, "Yeah. A new technique I've been working on. Maybe the next time we rumble I can show you."

Rook said, "I am thoroughly surprised. You managed to defeat all three of these sotoraggian assassins."

Ben said, "Hey, the guy can hold his own against enhanced aliens. I think that he can handle these three."

Naruto looked at Ben and asked, "You know these guys?"

Ben said, "I know Sixsix and Sevenseven, but I don't know who she is."

Rook's response was to take out his proto-tool and take a picture with it. An image of the female assassin appeared, along with some information.

"She is Eighteight," Ben said, "She is a mercenary much like them, and she is apparently their elder sister."

Ben blinked and said, "Wait…elder sister? She doesn't seem that much older than us."

Rook stated, "Alien species do age differently. It is also the fact that Sixsix and Sevenseven were mutated due to enhancement surgeries that gave the enhanced strength, durability, and survivability. According to my information, Eighteight does not have such enhancements."

Naruto asked, "Dang. I seriously hope that whoever does that, never meets up with Orochimaru."

Rook turned to Naruto and said, "Oh, the insane snake man who had an unhealthy obsession with your old teammate."

Naruto said, "Don't remind me. The less I think of that weirdo the better."

Ben then got a look on his face and said, "Wait a minute. You said she doesn't have any of those enhancement surgeries, right?"

Rook said, "Correct. Why do you ask?"

Ben went over to the plumbers who were checking and removing the weapons from the trio of Sotoraggians. Ben held out the omnitrix, which popped open revealing the core. A beam of green light shot out and passed over the girl. The omnitrix then shut before beeping and flashing yellow before turning green again.

Ben grinned as he pressed the button and cycled through the alien logos until he came across one that resemble Sixsix's mask.

Rook said, "You added a Sotoraggian DNA sample to the omnitrix?"

Ben said, "Hey, a lot of my enemies are pretty powerful. A few of their own species would be pretty useful in combat."

As the three returned to the proto-truk Rook asked, "Please do not scan one of the Vreedles. The thought of another Ma Vreedle is terrifying enough."

As the trio of fighters left, and the plumbers finally loaded the trio of assassins into custody, nobody noticed a camera like robot hidden in one of the trees nearby.

Elsewhere…

Abedo sat in his seat, his hand rubbing his chin.

"How interesting," Albedo said, "he seems human, but isn't. Enhance strength, durability and speed, regenerative powers, and able to manipulate some form of bio energy. How fascinating."

Suddenly, a portal opened, gaining the Galvan-turned-human's attention. Malware walked in.

"I take it your mission was a success?" Albedo asked.

Malware's response was to turn and allow a man to enter the room. He was clad in prison jumpsuit. He would have been mistaken for human, with long black hair and two bald spots on his head, but the flesh-colored horns and red, black-ringed eyes immediately told you that he wasn't human.

"Hello Aggregor," Abledo said with a smile, "We have much to discuss."

Cut! Okay, sorry for the short and slow chapter, but I feel that some build up is necessary so that everyone knows what is coming. Aggregor is back everyone! Something I feel they could have done in Omniverse given that he is one of the more powerful of Ben's enemies. Ialso did th echiche of Ben getting a Sotoraggian alien form…mainly because it is awesome, and I'm trying to add more aliens if I can. If you can think of a special weapon you'd like to see Ben use. Let me know.

I also wrote out the Annihilarrg because, I'll be honest, I always thought that was a stupid plot point. If an alien race creates a weapon designed to wipe out universes, then they shouldn't be stupid enough to leave it lying around!
