As a demon he had lived a long life and seen a lot of things. He was superior to humans in every way.
Moreover, he was a middle class demon that even other demons were afraid of, so how could he stand still after hearing a human speak to it in such a way. .
Roar!
The minotaur roared sending out a massive sound wave that shattered all the surrounding glasses. His red eyes glowed ominously as he raised the huge axe in his hands and swung it down it like a meteor unto Naruto.
The air exploded as the axe sailed down like a missile. The sight would have caused any ordinary human being to piss their pants or die from fear. But Naruto was anything but ordinary.
Naruto stood still and stared nonchalantly at the axe that looked like it could split an entire building in half. Nobody could tell what he was thinking.
Moro grinned when he saw Naruto unmoving. He thought that he had been stricken with fear and couldn't which filled him with glee.
I will eat your flesh and feed your bones to the lower demons. Moro was growing excited at the thought of ending this disrespectful human's life.
"DIE!"
However, just as the axe was about to connect with Naruto he suddenly disappeared from the spot surprising him. Moro felt a presence behind him and quickly swung his axe around.
Clang
Sparks flew as his axe connected with purgatory. A mini explosion and shockwave spread out from the point of impact.
Strong! Moro winced when he felt the weight behind the attack. He was even forced to take half a step back. What an embarrassment. Never in his thousand years of life had je ever imagined that he would one day be bested by a human.
"Ahhhhh!" Moro raised his axe again and launched a series of chain attack at Naruto, however every one of his attack was deflected by Naruto without fail. No matter how hard he tried he couldn't land a single hit on him causing him to feel frustrated. Especially that demonic looking sword. Not only did it not break or crack after so many exchanged but it also filled him with a sense of danger.
He couldn't help but think that this human was one of those so called demon hunters that he had heard so much about when he was in the underworld. Humans who had the ability to kill demons. If he was one of them then he couldn't be allowed to live.
With his mind made up, Moro increased the intensity and ferocity of his attacks.
Their battle destroyed their surroundings, creating dents and cracks on the ground and buildings around them. The sound of their battle attracted the attention of the demons flying in the sky but none of them dared to approach the battlefield. Those who did were immediately torn to pieces so they quickly steered clear of the battlefield.
ROAR!
Moro's demonic aura exploded after trading blows with Naruto for a while he realized that Naruto wasn't a normal human being. After all no human would have blasted until now against him. Not only that but he could also fight him on even footing. However, what puzzled him the most was the red aura surrounding him, he could sense that it was demonic energy, which was strange since Naruto is a human.
As much as it hurt his pride to admit it he knew that he couldn't defeat Naruto without going all out.
Blackish red energy exploded out from his body sending out a powerful shockwave scaring away the demons who had been standing watch.
Naruto frowned when he felt the power Moro was giving off. Up until now he had only been fighting the demon with his three tail cloak worth of chakra to avoid wasting chakra but it seemed that he might have to reconsider.
"Seems like he is finally getting serious. You've really frustrated him huh kid" Kurama laughed even as he felt the demonic power coming from Moro he didn't think much about it. Because to him the outcome of this battle had already been decided from the very beginning.
After unleashing his demonic powers Moro's form became even more distorted and horrifying, growing a few more inches in size. His axe also turned pitch black and crackled with black and red lightning. He looked at Naruto with ridicule and contempt and said.
"You have exceeded my expectations human. But it's time for you to die!"
As soon as his voice fell Moro disappeared from his position and appeared in front of Naruto like a ghost, his axe already in full swing. No matter how impressive and powerful Naruto was he was still a human. Now that he had unleashed his true demonic powers all he could do was die.
The massive axe crashed down on Naruto like a nuke. A loud explosion went off upon impact kicking up a huge dust cloud.
'It's over' Moro grinned victoriously when he heard this but his victorious gaze soon turned to skepticism. Despite the fact that he felt his axe connecting with something Moro had a look of doubt on his face.
There was a scream or feeling of flesh being smashed made him frown. He suddenly had a bad premonition and couldn't help to look past the axe to see a pair of slanted glowing red eyes staring right back at him causing his heart to skip a beat.
The reason why he didn't hear a scream was because Naruto had grabbed the axe with his right hand which had now turned a golden hue preventing it from moving any further.
"W-What? Just what are you?!" This was the first time Moro had felt fear in years. The last time was when he had joined the war against Sparda. There was no way that the man standing before him was human. He refused to believe it. There was no way he was an ordinary demon hunter. His strength reminded him of the son of sparda, the one called the devil hunter.
He was a demon that all demons feared but now there was someone else and it was someone he has never heard of before.
If Naruto knew what Moro was thinking right now he would be surprised unfortunately or not he doesn't. Naruto ignored the expression of fear and doubt in Moro's eyes and answered emotionlessly. "Your butcher!"
Immediately he said those words, a golden aura on his hand spread out to the rest of his body. Moro trembled when he felt the tremendous aura coming from Naruto.
Most especially the horn that appeared on Naruto's forehead. That was something that only middle class demons and higher possessed. No matter what Naruto says now he would never believe that he was not a demon from the underworld.
The aura he felt from Naruto was several times stronger than his own.
"Be quick Naruto, we can't afford to waste chakra" Kurama reminded Naruto immediately he tapped into their power. Right now they can't afford to waste chakra on this demon since there was an even more powerful demon waiting for them at the center of the portal. He knew that Naruto was burning with rage after witnessing the chaos and destruction that the demon had wrought so he hoped that he wouldn't be blinded by his anger.
"I know" Naruto replied telepathically. Unlike what Kurama feared, he was blinded by his rage. What was important right now wasn't the demon in front of him or saving the people around him. It was to close the hell's gate that had opened above the city. That was the only way they could stop all of this disaster.
'A high class demon?' Moro subconsciously took a few steps back in fear after feeling the demonic aura emitting from Naruto, but he quickly regained his composure when he thought back to the words Naruto called him earlier.
"No matter who or what you are, I will make you pay for insulting me!" Moro roared before swinging his axe down on Naruto with all his power.
"Be gone from this world!"
The roar of thunder boomed in the surrounding as the axe descended upon Naruto like the heavenly judgement. The wind howled under the might of the axe.
The axe carried all of the might of the Middle class demon, Moro. After fighting Naruto for a while he realized that if he wanted to have a chance of fighting Naruto he has to give it his all.
Unfortunately, the axe only made it halfway before it was slapped aside by one of the tails swinging behind Naruto. Moro didn't get the chance to catch his breath before four more tails wrapped around his arms and legs and pulled him towards Naruto. His huge figure was lifted through the air like a kite.
It was unknown when it happened or how but a glowing red demonic orb had mysteriously materialized in Naruto's right hand. It was the size of a basket ball and it was quickly growing bigger. Moro felt a deep sense of danger from that orb and knew that if it hit him it would all be over.
He tried to break free from the tails dragging him towards that now massive ball of doom, which was now half his size but the tails were too powerful so he couldn't break free of them and before he knew it he had already arrived before the attack. Right at that moment he felt a deep sense of regret. If he had known that this would happen he would have never left the underworld.
The last words he heard before his whole world went dark was:
"Vermillion Rasengan!"
The rasengan connected with Moro spiraling into his body. Moro screamed as he felt the organ inside his body twisting and tearing apart. His eyes turned white and he spat out a mouthful of blood before blasting backwards like a missile. He crashed into buildings one after the other before stopping at the fourth one. But at that point he was already dead. His internal organs spilled out of his body, after a few seconds his body started turning to ashes preparing to return to the underworld.
After sending Moro crashing into the buildings Naruto cancelled his demon form then turned around to gaze at the demon portal in the distance.
His battle with Moro had chased away all the surrounding demons. Which was good for him since he doesn't have the time to waste on them.
"Something huge is going there, we have to hurry up!" Kurama urged as he looked through Naruto's eyes at the portal, he felt weary of the power coming from that place.
"Already on it" Naruto nodded before his figure disappeared from the spot like a mirage. If one looked closely they could see a figure appearing every few feet away before disappearing again. The speed at which he moved was difficult for the human eyes to follow.
Naruto couldn't help but feel a sense of foreboding as he ran towards the demonic portal. He still doesn't know what caused all of this but somehow he felt that Dante was involved.
The demons were still circling in the sky and the screams and terror of humans continued around him. Naruto ignored them as he charged straight at the portal.
"Hold on, Dante. I'm coming"
