The bright lights, the screaming crowd, and the blood on his hands as he continuously beat the man below him throwing vicious left and right hooks breaking the mans jaw, busting up his nose the man was punching and punching as his opponents face was turning blue and purple but he continued on punching as blood began pouring from his opponents eyes but the man didnt stop as he kept on throwing more punches punch after punch after punch the mans hands were covered in the blood of his opponent but the man didn't care one bit as he continued beating his opponent to death and as he was about to deliver the final blow the man stopped and got off his opponent.
His opponent was shocked at the sudden mercy of the man that has been beating him to a bloody pulp only seconds ago seeing this as his chance the man began crawling away from the man slowly getting enough strength to stand up and than falling back down immediatly as his growing strength had disappeared but he was caught by the same man who had already shown him mercy. why was he helping the man he was completely decimating only moments ago?
But the mans questions were soon answered as the man lifting him up put his right arm around his neck and dropped to the ground wrapping his legs around his waist as he slipped his left arm around his right wrist putting his left hand on the back of the head of the beaten man and with a python like grip the man began chocking out the beaten man but the beaten man was fighting back still hitting the man with punches that had no power behind them.
The beaten man couldn't breath, he could not escape, he could not break free as his struggle became weaker and weaker his eyes began to close slowly as the beaten man had lost hope as victory could not be seen. His eyes close at last and the sound of the snap of his neck echoed through out the arena the crowd cheered as they waved there money in the air not caring one bit of the man who lost his life a man who tried to survive in this unforgiving world.
The man stood victorious but didn't spare a glance toward the crowd of people he cared not for there attention nor there wealth he only cared about getting his pay and getting the hell out of the arena and so he did as he walked out the arena with a grey hoodie that said Ichiban (first) on the back as he put the hood over his head as he walked into the slums of Konoha.
Walking through the slums the man was now becoming more comfortble as he was now surrounded by a place he was very familiar with. From running kids pretending to play tag and hide and go seek but there really pick pocketing poor suckers that decided it would be better to take a shortcut to work than take there normal route. There was the fake gangs that hung around the area they would just hang out and have fun talking to each other while also figureing out if certain places were hiring the man always wondered if they could actually fight but decided that it was a waste of time.
Than there were the real gangs that are always serious running extortion extending to all districts in konoha from food vendors and business owner's to clan heads and politicians there one of the pillars that holds the konoha underworld together. besides the gangs that you would see around town in every district there would be the business aspect of it too as in having members in the konoha counsel no one knows who are the roaches in the counsel but thanks to them the man is able to have a paycheck as they run the undeground fight clubs around town having enough political influence to have others look away but let's get to the main dish the one that is above all those the one that controls them all, the yakuza.
The yakuza run it all and it's not just happening in konoha it's everywhere in Suna, Kumo, Kiri, Iwa, Oto, Uzu, Ishi and the list just keeps going and the things they do go even farther than just extortion and illegal fighting rings they cross the line and are heavely involved in human trafficking, prostitution, picking off politicians and people they were paid to put down and thats not even scrapping the ice of other things they do crazy fuckers got power physically, politically, financilly the yakuza are untouchable and as things stand at the moment they will stay at the top.
Snapping back to reality the man found himself already exiting the slums and into the open market this place is where you will find your food vendors, super markets, family businesses, and etc. The man easily fit into the crowd sliding through people getting to where he needed to be until he came across a window which showed him his reflection revealing a large blood stain on his left cheek and then he looked toward his hands to still find them covered in blood still seeing this he shoved his hands in the pockets of his hoodie and went looking for a restroom.
Finding a restroom nearby he began washing the blood from his face and washing the blood from his hands getting the dried blood crust out of his finger nails but catching a glance of himself in the mirror he looked like a creepy pervert looking for the nearest grade school "Damn how have i not been stopped yet, i look suspicious as hell" the sound of a flushing toilet was heard as a man stepped out wearing black jikatabi shoes (A/N jikatabi were actually proper shoes from the edo period so it fits in naruto's time frame) a blue yukata and and a white obi the poor man was already too late as he was already decked in the chin and was out like light as the man took off his grey sweater and began switching clothes with the other man but left the white obi behind and used his gray jacket to take the obi's place (A/N an obi is a belt you use when wearing a yukata) and with that the man left.
The man took off looking way less suspicious than before and finally made it to his destination which happened to be the small humble food vendor Ichiraku's. Smelling the food from the other side the man opened the curtain to see Hiruzen Sarutobi the third hokage and the hyper active fire ball which is Naruto Uzumake. Taking a seat next to naruto as he stuffed his face with ramen "your late" said hiruzen glancing at the man intently "i know, i know but before you lecture me would you believe me if i said i was helping an old lady cross the street" the man said with a grin on his face "No" said hiruzen flatly "eeehhhh it was worth a shot" said the man giving up on lieing as ichiraku brought a bowl of ramen to the man "thanks" said the man giving sincer gratitude toward ichiraku "your going to need it" was the only thing ichiraku said as he left to the back and immediatly.
"How many times am i going to have to tell you" said hiruzen. And so the lecture began as for a good 25 minutes the man's very soul had left the earth to go die in absolute boredom until hiruzen stood up ready to head back to the office to finish up some more paperwork that had most likely stacked up sense his leave for lunch so he left a couple coins behind to pay for his and naruto's bowls of ramen but than the man leaned over "hey old man you mind sparing a couple coins for an honest hard working man like myself" said the man as hiruzen can only look on with dead fish eyes "get a job slacker" and left but in that moment naruto just had to finish his ramen "YA GET A JOB SLACKER" and so the man's hell had truly began.
"So what took you so long HUH" said naruto punching the man in the shoulder getting into the man's face as the man was finishing the ramen that ichiraku gave him "it's none of your damn business" said the man trying to enjoy his food "whatever you probably got into another fight and got your ass kicked" said naruto taunting the man successfully "What was that you brat" said the man "You heard me stupid tonchiki" said naruto with a challenging grin on his face (A/N tonchiki = mutt in japanese).
the man responded to that by grabbing naruto's cheeks and began pulling them causing naruto to groan in pain as he tride to break free "now who kicked who's ass now huh, Huh" said the man with a satisfied grin until a frying pan came flying out of no where nailing the man on the side of the head naruto had saw that Ayame had entered the room from the back and said out loud "YOU TWO STOP MESSING AROUND EITHER BUY ANOTHER BOWL OR TAKE IT OUTSIDE" ayame said with complete confidence and control "He started it" said the man "Did not" said naruto annoyed "Did too" said the man "Did not" said naruto now in the man's face "THAT'S IT, TAKE IT OUTSIDE BOTH OF YOU" said Ayame as she pushed them both out.
"Look, see what you did" said naruto now walking away angry "It was for the best Ayame-chan actually had some good points there" said the man right behind naruto as they were now walking together "So was i right" said naruto already letting what happened before go "huh" said the man "about you getting into another fight, was it true" said naruto stopping where he was and looking at man in the face. Blue eyes meeting Emerald orbs looking away from naruto he spilled the beans "ya" said the man "did you win" said naruto being curious "ya" said the man.
"Hey Minoru can you teach me you know, how to fight and stuff" said naruto "let's go home you got the academy tomorrow" said Minoru "fine" said naruto "but your going to have to give me piggyback all the way home" said naruto "brat" said Minoru as naruto got on his back "your punishment for being late earlier" said naruto "ya, ya, whatever" said Minoru, the man with the devil on his back.
