Naruto and the Village of Ice: Chapter 4

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

ON THE ROAD TO WAVE

Naruto was annoyed. His new sensei, Momochi Masamune, had him wearing 200 pounds of weights on each of his arms and legs, making a total of 800 pounds. And he was also swinging a wooden sword around, so as to get used to it. But what could he expect? He had been at this for only three days; they would be arriving in Wave tomorrow. Two hours later, we find our ninjas sitting around a campfire. Well, Hinata was sitting by the fire, and Naruto and Masamune were practicing.

"WHAT DID I TELL YOU? SWING UP, AND THEN DOWN THE IN A WIDE ARK, FOLLOWED BY A DOWNWARD CHOP!" yelled Masamune.

Naruto could only grunt. He learnt on the first day of training that if he yelled back, then more weights would be added, longer workouts, and a beating. It also didn't help that Masamune threatened him with no ramen for a year if he talked back. That night, Naruto slept peacefully, or so it seemed. It turns out, that as he sleeps; the fox trains him in strategy. Which is no easy feat, this is Naruto after all.

NARUTO'S MIND

"Ok kit, now that you have lured the enemy into the field, I want you to trigger the traps. After that, send a quick wave of fire and earth jutsus, some very powerful ones, so you can divide their forces. Good, now, what do you do next?" Asked the legendary kitsune.

Naruto was thinking, thinking hard, until he came up with an idea, "I, uh, send the central line into the main force, followed by the ANBU on the flanks, surround the enemy, and attack from both sides?" he said unsurely.

Kyuubi was in shock. Never did he think that the boy would actually get it right. Sure he was teaching him, but he had some major doubts. Kyuubi dismissed Naruto and allowed him a good nights sleep.

The next day, they arrived in Wave. And were in shock to see the bridge that Naruto helped build and defend, named after him. One of the villagers recognized his whisker marks, and yelled, "IT'S THE GREAT NARUTO, COME THIS WAY, MASTER TAZUNA HAS BEEN WANTING TO SEE YOU!"

And before they knew it, they were being ushered to a great big house. As they passed, people would stop and bow to Naruto, showing their respect. When they arrived at Tazuna's house, Naruto was pushed to the ground, being hugged by Inari. This caused Hinata to giggle a little, and Masamune to smirk.

"Ah Naruto, it has been to long. Please come inside."

When they entered, they sat around the dinner table, and Tazuna spoke again, "So Naruto, I'm sure you have many tales to tell. Tell me what happened over the past 2 years."

He stopped when he noticed Naruto downcast face. Tsunami and Inari were also confused, until Naruto told them their tale.

At the end, Tazuna and others were not happy. They just couldn't believe that the people they once knew were now so bad.

After a lovely meal, they all went their separate ways. Naruto went and created a kage bunshin, and then he bit his thumb, and drew a seal on the clone's forehead. The result, an orange mist came out of Naruto's naval, and entered the clones seal. The clone was now a real living person, flesh and blood, and inhabited by the Kyuubi. The seal on the clones forehead, allows for a transfer of souls, allowing the Kyuubi a little bit of freedom. But Naruto gets to decide how much chakra he gets, thus keeping him out of trouble. He was wrong.

Kyuubi, with his newfound freedom, immediately decided on his first course of action. He was heading to the Red Light District.

Naruto, not wanting the fox to get him into trouble, made the fox henge into a different person first. The fox decided to turn into Iruka. Then he sped off to the Red Light District.

The mayhem that would follow would be forever etched into the minds of many people, the fox for one, and many, many sexy women.

Masamune had something else to do. He went to pay his respects to his brother, and Haku, who he had always considered to be a little sister.

Naruto hung out with Inari, and Hinata learned how to cook from Tsunami.

The next day, Naruto and Masamune can be found at Zabuza's graves; Naruto reached out, put his hand on the handle, and pulled out Kubikiri Houcho, Zabuza's sword. Masamune spoke, "As of now this sword is yours, you will respect it, this sword is an extension of your being. You are the sword, the sword is you. You will not disgrace Zabuza by mistreating the sword. Am I understood?"

Naruto nodded, accepting his responsibility. They spent the next 2 days sharpening it, getting rid of the rust, and shining it. The sword was returned to its former glory. Then they all left Wave, to a teary goodbye. The citizens were sad to see the ninjas go, but they realized that they had to leave, to keep the village safe.

12 HOURS EARLIER.

The Kyuubi woke up feeling groggy, but that's what happens when you drink too much. He heard moaning; he sat up, and saw a shocking sight. He was surrounded with women, lots of naked, beautiful women. He smiled, laid back down, and was thinking of the wild night he had. He had started by pick pocketing all the rich people he saw, and then he went bar hopping. Later, before he knew it, he was dancing naked on the bar, sandwiched between 2 women. He repeated this all night long, before he ended up in a hotel room with a massive orgy. He was indeed a very happy fox.

End Flashback

1 week later

Iruka was on his way to Wave. He had been assigned to inform Tazuna that he had paid off the mission that was taken by the former Team 7. When he got there, he was shocked to see a lot of young women, giving him lusty looks. He hadn't even made it 2 feet before he was being grabbed from all directions. He had a very exciting week. When he returned late, with cloths torn, and looking worn-out, people were wondering what had happened. He informed the Hokage, but left out the details, he simply said that he was attacked; she didn't believe him, but said nothing of it. He had a very good week.

HOKAGE TOWER

"Hokage-sama, we have the DNA results that you asked for." said the doctor.

"Thank you Jin" she said then excused him. Jiraiya, who was sitting in the chair in front of her desk asked, "What are those for?"

She replied, "Before Naruto went on his mission to retrieve Sasuke, I had taken a DNA sample of him. I was hoping to surprise him by finding out whom his parents were, but I couldn't tell the hospital it was him, so that way they couldn't be tampered with. Luckily, we managed to have the DNA files of everyone who was alive before the Kyuubi attacked. He didn't get that far into the village. So I ran a check on all samples to hopefully find out who his parents were."

Jiraiya was shocked, and then asked, "Can we see the results?"

She nodded, and then opened the envelope, and as she read her eyes would get steadily bigger, till she dropped it. Jiraiya, seeing this, was immediately at the side of his former teammate.

"Tsunade, what is it!"

"H-his parents." Being unable to finish, Jiraiya picked up the paper, and said in shock,

"The 4th was his father!"

"And I am his mother," finished Tsunade.

Jiraiya was clearly shocked, but he put aside his shock, and decided to comfort her. Knowing this is difficult. You see, there was a reason why she left the village all those years ago. Everybody in the village knew that, she lost so much. First, in the great ninja war, she lost her little brother, and her fiancé. Then 4yrs later, she lost her new husband, Kazama Arashi, otherwise known as the 4th Hokage, and it was believed that her baby boy, newly born during the attack, had been killed when the fox leveled the nursery of the hospital. Because of all she lost, she couldn't take anymore, and left. Now she finds out that not only is her son alive, but he's now an S-classed missing-nin. The ANBU guards that were in her office, assigned to protect the kage, decided to dismiss themselves. It also happens that those two guards had respect for Naruto. At first they hated him, but when they learned that he was the one who defeated Gaara in the sand-sound invasion, they started to respect him. That respect had risen when they learned that the legendary Gamabunta, the toad boss, pick him as his subordinate and favorite summoner since the 4th. They knew that they were wrong, and had every intention to apologize to him when he returned, but they were unable to. It was then and there, that they decided to keep Naruto's relation a secret; they didn't want to share information that was not theirs to share.

Jiraiya decided that then and there, he was going to do something in secret that would probably be considered treason, but he knew that it must be done. He was going to give Naruto his father's scrolls and jutsus. Later on that evening, he summoned Gamakichi. Said frog seemed depressed that it was him and not Naruto that summoned him. Jiraiya ignored the insult and told Gamakichi to deliver a note to Naruto, the frog was more than willing, and he sped off, to find his friend.

AT THE KONOHA HOSPITAL

The hospital was filled with some genin, some very pissed off genin. The genin were, Hyuuga Neji, Nara Shikamaru, Akimichi Chouji, Inuzuka Kiba and his dog Akamaru, and Yamanaka Ino. Shikamaru and Ino were visiting there friends. A few minutes ago, Tsunade visited them. It was the first time they were all counciss to hear the news, she told them everything, how Naruto brought back the traitor, how he was chased out, how Hinata followed him, his missing-nin status, everything, including his relations. She told them that because she knew they could be trusted. After that she left, leaving behind some very pissed off genin. Neji was pissed off because of how Naruto was treated and Hinata leaving. You see, after the Chuunin exams, Naruto told him about his seal, that made Neji think, and earned Neji's respect. Obviously, he was very pissed off at the village. Kiba was pissed because he liked Hinata; he was going to ask her out when he got back. He didn't blame Naruto; he blamed the village, and her father. You see, it was a known fact that Hinata's father, Hyuuga Hiashi, was a very mean and tough father. Neji hated him as well. That man would constantly berate her, in the end, resulting in her low confidence. The other team members were angry with the village as a whole. Especially Sasuke and they had every intention of getting some major payback. Ino left to go find Sakura, and Shikamaru was sitting there planning with the others for revenge.

Ino was angry, well, maybe angry is not quite the word to describe it, she wasn't pissed either, she was way, way, beyond pissed. Sakura was going to be the unlucky recipient. Soon, Ino found her.

"HEY SAKURA!" she yelled.

She turned around, and walked straight into Ino's fist. She landed on her back and yelled, "WHAT WAS THAT FOR PIG?"

Ino's reply was simple, "THAT WAS FOR NARUTO YOU STUBID BITCH!"

Sakura was shocked that Ino would use such language. She continued, "HOW COULD YOU DO THAT TO NARUTO! AFTER ALL HE HAD DONE FOR YOU! HE SAVED YOU FROM GAARA, SAVED YOU FROM 2 S-CLASS MISSING-NINS, AND HE BROUGHT BACK A WORTHLESS TRAITOR! AND YOU HAVE THE AUDACITY TO BEAT ON HIM, WHEN HE HAS A HOLE IN HIS CHEST, WHICH THE UCHIHA PUT THERE USING AN A-RANKED JUTSU. YOU DIDN'T EVEN LET HIM HEAL; YOU JUST START BEATING ON HIM. I'M DISGUSTED WITH YOU; YOU ARE A DISGRACE TO THIS VILLAGE. AND YOU!" she pointed to a random villager, the reason she was after this villager, was because at the mention of Naruto's name, he scowled. Most of the village was treated to Ino's wrath. And it just so happens that the two ANBU were walking by, in fact they were the same guards that knew of Tsunade's relation, and they were the ones who excused themselves, and liked Naruto. So when villagers were being reprimanded for disrespecting him, they just ignored it and walked on to do there business. Lets call them Biggs and Wedge, they will provide some comic relief later on in the story.

WITH NARUTO

They were just setting up camp, when a small toad came into the camp, "HEY, NARUTO!" it yelled.

"Hi Gamakichi, how are you doing?" replied Naruto.

"Nothing much, I just brought a message from the pervert."

"What does he want?" asked Naruto.

Gamakichi gave the note and Naruto read it. He was happy, but decided to wait.

"Oh and by the way, pop heard about what happened, and he says he is with you man. In fact he banned all toads from helping the village in anyway. We're all with you man."

With that, he went back to tell Jiraiya that Naruto has decided to wait a year before he teaches the 4th's jutsus. Of course, in the note, Jiraiya did not mention Naruto's relations, and that gave him the time to prepare to tell the boy, for he knew, Naruto would be very, very, pissed.

Later on that evening, all 3 of our favorite missing-nins were sitting around the campfire, when suddenly 5 bandits attacked. Masamune was well aware of them being nearby, but he wanted to test his new students, to see if they have the capability to kill.

MASAMUNE'S POV

As soon as they attacked, I jumped and grabbed my sword, swinging in a wide ark, instantly killing both of my attackers; I watched as there blood and guts decorated the trees around us. I then decide to sit and watch to see if my new students have what it takes to survive.

WITH NARUTO

Naruto was caught unaware of the bandits, so when they first attacked, he acted on instinct and dodged to the right, the enemies sword passing over his head. The bandit quickly recovers, and swings again. Naruto, being encouraged by Kyuubi, jumps over the bandit, lands behind him, grabs his new sword, which he stuck into the ground, pulled it out and swung on a diagonal ark, hitting his waist, and coming out his shoulder. The man's upper body slowly starts to slide downward. Naruto can only stare as he sees the man's blood and internal organs starting to seep out. Naruto had just made his first kill.

WITH HINATA

She was being careless, and she knew it. She has the byakugan. She should have seen them approach, but she did not. These were the thoughts running through her mind. She was scared, all she could do was block, and the man before her was using his fists, with brass knuckles. She was using her chakra to deflect his blows, she knew she had to kill, but she didn't think she could do it. She glanced over, and saw Naruto standing over a severed body; she now knew she could do it. If her hopefully soon to be boyfriend, maybe husband, can do it, why not her. The man used his right hand and tried to punch her in the face, she saw this, and dodged his blow, using her chakra to disable his arm; she quickly used a super charged blow directly to his heart, killing him instantly. Hinata had just made her first kill.

After the battle, Masamune used a Katon jutsu to burn the bodies, and then they moved their camp elsewhere. Masamune watched and evaluated them during the battle. Naruto he saw has a total lack of environmental awareness. He also noticed that Naruto almost seemed reluctant to use the sword; he would have to change that. Hinata, he noticed, has a total lack of confidence. He will have to change that also. He also notices that she looks up to Naruto, and has a huge crush on him. Of course, Naruto being Naruto was oblivious. Over the next year, he would turn them from simple genin, to a force to be reckoned with. Maybe get those two together while he was at it. A little romance never hurts, does it?
