Chapter 4 - Chapter 4 — The Shadow Who Knows All Power

Naruto and Goku stood inside the new arena. The air felt heavy, filled with pressure like a giant force pushing down on them. Stars floated above, but they looked broken and twisted — as if the sky itself was a cracked mirror.

Goku stretched his arms. "This place feels weird."

Naruto nodded. "Yeah… I feel someone watching us."

Goku's eyes scanned the darkness. "Grand Priest said a bad guy is planning something. If he comes… we'll take him down together."

Naruto smiled confidently. "Of course!"

They took fighting stances again. Their power rose — Goku's blue aura shining like lightning, Naruto's golden chakra burning like wildfire.

But before they could attack…

A cold voice echoed around them.

"Impressive. You two reached god level without being gods."

Naruto and Goku spun around— trying to find the owner of the voice.

Dark fog formed high above. Slowly, a figure stepped out of the shadows. He was tall, wearing a long dark cloak with strange glowing symbols. His face was hidden by a mask that looked like broken glass. His eyes glowed bright purple.

Naruto shouted, "Who are you?!"

The figure spread his arms wide.

"I am Void. The watcher of all battles. The collector of power. And soon… the ruler of both universes."

Goku floated into the air, fists ready. "We don't like bullies. So leave before we punch you out of here!"

Void laughed, cold and amused.

"Punch me? I am not your enemy… yet. I want to enjoy your fight. When you reach your limit, when your energy is highest… then I will take everything!"

Naruto clenched his teeth. "You want our power?!"

Void nodded. "Yes. Your fight will break the wall between your worlds. Then I will absorb your powers and become the God of Destruction and Creation."

He raised one finger, and the entire ground shook. Rocks floated up as if gravity disappeared. Even Naruto and Goku struggled to stay steady.

Naruto yelled, "Goku! We have to beat him now!"

Goku didn't attack yet. He was studying Void carefully.

"You're strong. I can feel it. Maybe… stronger than Jiren… or even Beerus."

Void bowed like a king.

"Thank you. I ate many gods to reach this form."

Naruto's eyes widened. "You… you killed gods!?"

"In both universes," Void said proudly.

A dark circle appeared behind him, showing quick flashes — Beerus fighting, then screaming… A powerful ninja-tailed beast crying before disappearing…

Naruto's blood boiled. "You… MONSTER!"

He rushed forward with a loud battle cry. A huge Rasengan formed instantly, spinning wildly in his palm.

Void didn't even move. He simply raised one hand.

Naruto's attack stopped in the air like it hit an invisible wall.

Then the Rasengan disappeared — like it never existed.

Naruto fell back in shock. "W-What?!"

Void sighed.

"You two are not ready yet. Fight each other first. Show me your greatest power. Make me happy."

Goku stepped forward, aura flaring.

"We don't listen to evil guys. If you want a fight—"

Void appeared in front of Goku in one blink. He grabbed Goku's face and slammed him into the ground.

Naruto was stunned by the speed.

Void stood over Goku calmly. "I said… fight each other first."

He kicked Goku back into the air like a toy. Goku groaned but quickly regained balance.

Naruto yelled, "Goku! Are you okay?!"

Goku wiped blood from his lip and smiled.

"I've had much harder hits. This guy… he's insane strong."

Void slowly floated back.

"I will wait in the darkness. Show me a battle worth stealing."

He disappeared into the black fog.

Silence filled the arena again.

Naruto's breath shook. "Goku… this is bad."

Goku nodded. "We must give everything. Not for fun… but to save everyone."

Naruto took a deep breath. Kurama's voice echoed inside him.

"Let's go all out, Naruto."

Goku powered up again — even brighter than before.

Now… this fight was no longer a game.

It was survival.

Naruto and Goku faced each other with serious, determined eyes.

Naruto said, "Let's do this. And when he returns… we will be ready."

Goku smiled with fire in his eyes.

"Yeah. Let's show him what heroes are!"

They charged forward one more time, ready to break their limits.

And somewhere above them…

Void smiled in the darkness.

His plan was working perfectly.
