Naruto stood in his training room, looking down at the blue energy cuffs that bound his wrist, and ankles together, these were Chakra cuffs, his mother had created them to enhance Chakra reserves and helped with Chakra control, he needed to actively cycle chakra throughout his entire body in order to simply move, let alone fight.
Naruto placed down his arms, before his attention went to a scroll meant for Tsunade, his mother had improved on the Strength of a Hundred seal, apparently the new seal would give Tsunade her youth, unknown how much, but it would also heal her instantaneously.
Making a silent promise to give the scroll to Tsunade, Naruto turned and grabbed his Tensa Masamune, the 7ft nodaichi suddenly was a blazed with a black aura, with a red outline before it shrunk to equal Naruto in height now having a length of 5'3
"Time to go."
Outskirts of Hi no Kuni.
Kakashi had finished explaining to Sakura why Wave had no shinobi of it's own and the Hidden Village per Country system. This was something that was not included in the Academy Curriculum but the other ten thousand tons of bullshit was.
Naruto scoffed as he remembered the days of the Academy. Not only was it pointless but it was also during this time he had started taking trips outside the village, and on one of those trips he had met Killer Bee, and Yugito Ni, the Eight Tails, and Two Tails Jinchurriki's, he had also met the Raikage who had came to retrieve the two who apparently had snuck out of the village.
The Raikage was a cool muscle bound dude, who had respected his parents viewing his father as a rival, and his mother as a Kunoichi he could respect.
Naruto was broken out of his thoughts when, he felt 2 Shinobi level chakra signatures, probably Chunin level, and 5 low level Chakra signatures in the woods, all at Genin level.
Naruto looked at Tazuna, the man obviously had lied about the true nature of the mission. If chunnin were here, then this was clearly a B Ranked Mission. Kakashi too had picked up the three people following them but did not show it. He wanted to see how this played out, when he and Naruto noticed a small puddle near their path. A puddle in the middle of summer.
'Genjutsu'. Naruto and Kakashi thought while noticing Sasuke, and Sakura hadn't noticed when all of a sudden, a spiked chain popped up out of the puddle and wrapped itself around Kakashi.
Two figures rose up pulled on the chain, effectively turning him into a pile of flesh, before 5 bandits dropped down as the 2 figures headed for Sakura, who screamed, as Sasuke looked on in shock,
"Shit." Naruto thought before he headed for Sakura to protect her and Tazuna when the 5 bandits got in his way rushing him with kunai's at the ready "Your in the way!"
In a flash of speed, Naruto had two hearts in his hands, which he dropped before he decapitated another bandit, and ripped out 2 new hearts as he continued on his way to protect Tazuna
In a flash of speed Naruto appeared in front of his teammates and client, and turned around thrusting his fist forward "Shotgun!"
An explosion of Chakra burst from Naruto's fist, causing the 2 chunin to go flying back, with a sigh he stood up straight as Kakashi appeared beside him
"Good job, Naruto. Kakashi said
"Kakashi-sensei! Your alive!" Sakura yelled before she looked back where he was before to see a log "Substitution." Sakura muttered
"Meizu!"
Everyone looked to see one of the chunin on the ground whole he looked to his partner who had been run through by a sharp branch having died instantly as his heart was punctured
"So Tazuna, care to explain why the demon brothers are after you?" Kakashi asked as Naruto walked forward an took out a kunai, while Sasuke, and Sakura watched him, before there eyes widened when he stabbed Gozu in the throat
"Naruto! What are you doing?!" Sakura asked
"Our job." Naruto said looking over to her "We are to protect our client, which means we kill all threats without hesitation. We do everything and anything for profit."
"But he.."
"There are no buts Sakura, it's best you get used to this, as this is the life of a Shinobi, just like Hokage-sama said, we aren't heroes, we have trained to be assassin's since we were 8 years old, why else would those training dummies be shaped like human bodies." Naruto said before he stood up and decapitated Meizu before taking his head and walking back to Gozu where he sealed both of the heads
"A Jonin level Shinobi will be sent next. This isn't a C-rank anymore, it's an A-rank." Naruto thought as he turned to Kakashi who was listening to Tazuna, who spoke about how a tycoon named Gato was financially and physically killing the island. How they had no way to provide for themselves anymore, and that the bridge he was building will help bring more revenue back to the deprived town. He then started to guilt trip them about his grandson and daughter feelings and what would happen if they didn't help
"We will help you Tazuna-san, if the Genin wish to continue on with the mission." Kakashi said before he looked to Sasuke who was disappointed in himself that he had froze up
"I'm continuing on with the mission." Sasuke said promising himself that he wouldn't freeze up this time. Kakashi then looked to Sakura who was looking down at the ground with a troubled expression
"Sakura?" Kakashi asked, getting her attention, before he saw her glance at Sasuke causing him to sigh
"I think we can continue the mission!" Sakura answered
Kakashi looked at the kunoichi for a moment before he looked to Naruto "What about you Naruto?" he asked
"I want to go to Uzu." Naruto thought before he nodded "Sure lets continue." Naruto said getting a nod from Kakashi
3 Hours Later
Nami no Kuni
Tazuna had a friend help them cross the water, as they crossed under the huge unfinished bridge, with Sakura talking the entire time. Sasuke was in deep thought about Naruto's power, weeks ago he and Sakura were told by Kakashi that Naruto was a vampire, but he never saw Naruto drinking blood. Not once did Naruto use his Sharingan either, he was pulling even further away in terms of strength, and if it was the last thing he did Sasuke would catch up by any means necessary.
"Careful kit, your Uchiha teammate is putting out so negative emotions." Kurama said to Naruto who sighed as he looked up to the clouds
"Let him, as long as he doesn't plot against the village, and remains focused on Itachi it's not my problem. But if he ever tries to harm Konoha, I'll kill him myself." Naruto thought causing Kurama to smirk before he closed his eyes and took a nap, causing Naruto to frown "Lazy furball." he thought
Soon the group was on land and their walk continued ""So Tazuna, how far is your house from here?" Kakashi inquired.
Tazuna coughed into his fist before looking at Kakashi. "It's a few hours away from here if we walk without stopping. Just follow the shore until where the river meets the sea and then we go upriver and we will reach it," said Tazuna as he adjusted his backpack
Kakashi nodded before turning towards his team. "You heard the man. Diamond formation. Sakura you take point, Naruto and Sasuke will cover the flanks and I will bring up the rear. As you know, Gato might have sent more men to kill Tazuna so be on high alert.
As the group of five began to walk, Sakura was in deep thought
"I hope nothing happens during the rest of the mission." Sakura thought before she looked over to Naruto his words were still fresh in her head "Is that really what being a Shinobi is all about, killing, and stealing for money?" she couldn't help but think to herself
"I won't let Naruto show me up again." Sasuke thought looking around before he thought he saw something and threw a kunai into a bush getting everyone's attention. Sakura walked over and looked into the bushes to see a rabbit shaking in fear
"Oh it's ok bunny, Sasuke-kun thought you were the enemy. He didn't mean to try to kill you." Sakura said petting the rabbit
"This is a snow rabbit but it's winter coat hasn't come in during the summer unless...it was used for substitution!" Naruto/Kakashi thought before the sound of something whirling towards them was heard. Naruto immediately pushed Tazuna out of the way while Kakashi tackled Sasuke and Sakura to the ground, before ducked as the Zanbatou was lodged into the tree,
Naruto looked up just as a man that was really tall easily standing above 6'0, with short spiky brown hair and brown eyes, he was shirtless and wore tan-brown forearm warmers and tan pants. Leather strips were on his back which were used to hold his giant sword. His mouth and nose were covered in bandages.
"Sharingan no Kakashi, and I never expected to face you, oh and you're in charge of a team of brats. Anyway all I want is the bridge builder, if you give him to me you and your brats can go free" Zabuza said
"Not going to happen." Kakashi said
Zabuza shrugged, before he brought up a hand in a ram seal " "Water Release: Hidden Mist Jutsu"
A deep mist flooded the area resulting in the ninja from the Leaf and Tazuna not being able to see in front of them. It was then that the area was flooded with killing intent, before Zabuza announced the eight different kill spots in a human body. That was enough for Sasuke to bring his Kunai to his neck to end the pain, fearhe was feeling when a voice cut through the mist.
"Sasuke what do you think you're doing, I will protect my comrades" Kakashi calmly told his student, who looked at him in shock
The two jounin class shinobi clashed. The mist that Zabuza had used to his advantage was paying off, but Naruto knew that Kakashi would have an edge over Zabuza, that bastard Obito's Sharingan in his right eye socket had saved his life more times than he could count. Now, it was helping again as he fought off with the rogue nin of Kirigakure.
From what Naruto saw, the only edge Zabuza had was his swordplay and the mist that always hugged this nation. Whatever Suiton jutsu he had used was countered easily by Kakashi and his Sharingan.
But then again, Kakashi didn't possess the body capable of harnessing the Sharingan's full potential as judging by Kakashi's movements, Naruto could tell that he was burning through chakra.
Naruto, Sakura and Sasuke were guarding Tazuna in the manji formation, on guard the whole time, before Naruto looked over to the woods were he heard another heart beat
Then Naruto saw that Kakashi and Zabuza were near the lake. Soon enough, Zabuza's trick worked and the swordsman had trapped Kakashi in a water prison before the man then proceeded to make a Mizu Bunshin. A perfect copy of Zabuza made of the chakra coated water from the lake appeared and slowly made his way across to the group. He was unleashing his killing intent once more.
"Run!" Kakashi yelled from inside the sphere of water "Take the bridge builder with you and go!"
"Sasuke, Sakura protect Tazuna." Naruto ordered walking forward Tensa Masamune appearing in a puff of smoke causing Zabuza's eyes to widened
"I thought you looked familiar. I never thought I'd run into the son of S-rank Kunoichi, Kushina the Red Death, and SS-rank Yondaime Hokage Minato Namikaze." Zabuza smirked as Sasuke, and Sakura looked shocked at the knowledge of Naruto's heritage
"Naruto's the son of the Fourth Hokage?" Sakura thought in shock
"I've waited for the day I'd meet you, your mother humiliated the 7 Ninja Swordsmen." Zabuza said causing Naruto to give a proud smile "Your vampire nature won't save you from me."
"Ok." Naruto said with his eyebrows raised, sure their were ways to kill him temporarily but hell even if Kurama was extracted from him his body would shut down till he healed
"This is bad, that damn blade is dangerous, as it is now any damage I take from the blade will never heal, but as long as it isn't black, he won't be using that damn poison curse." Zabuza thought before his attention went to Kakashi
"Why are you still here? The moment I was caught this battle was over. Now go and protect the bridge builder. That is your mission." Kakashi ordered
"Kakashi- sensei. Those who abandon the rules are trash but those who abandon their comrades are even worse than trash." Naruto said still having no idea where Kakashi got those words
Kakashi felt pride as while facing a deadly jounin with Zabuza's caliber he knew Naruto would be able to pull through, he was tired anyway, before he could say anythin Zabuza started laughing hysterically.
"That's cute." Zabuza said as he stopped laughing for a bit "Even now you think that you'll get your way by 'playing ninja'. Tell me something do you know how we graduate in my village?"
"The Bloody Mist Graduation." Naruto was the one who spoke, his eyes completely fixed on Zabuza "To become a ninja in the Bloody Mist Village... you must kill all the students in your graduating class." Naruto finished as everyone around him with the exception of Zabuza and Kakashi gasped
"Looks like you know your history. But do you know how I graduated?" Zabuza asked only for Kakashi to speak up
"Zabuza Momochi. The Demon Of the Hidden Mist" Kakashi said.
"So I take it you know the story Kakashi. Go ahead tell them." Zabuza said causing Kakashi to sigh before he looked to his team
"Years ago the Yondaime Mizukage had made the death match the graduating exam in Kirigakure. In one of those exams a single child had emerged the victor. He killed over a hundred of his classmates. He cut off their heads, stabbed their hearts, struck every vital point in the bodies. The Mizukage himself discontinued this process after this child had done such a deed. He was called a demon hiding in the body of a child. He was Zabuza Momochi."
"IT FELT... SO GOOOOD!" Zabuza exclaimed with vigor, causing Sasuke, Tazuna, and Sakura to look a bit put off with the proclamation he made. "When I was your age I was already lost in the rivers of blood I had created. You foolish children aren't ninjas. You will become a ninja when you have blood staining your hands. When you've hovered between life and death so many times it doesn't faze, that's when you have the essence of a true shinobi. When you've become so deadly that your profile has been entered into my bingo book, then you may have earned the title ninj-"
Zabuza was forced tI stop talking as his eyes widened and he was forced to release the water prison when a vamped out Naruto appeared over him while his water clone dispersed from a slash to the waist
Zabuza grunted as he blocked Naruto's slash, as he noticed a clone take Kakashi back toward the bridge builder, he paid for taking his eyes off of Naruto as the boy punched him in the gut, causing spittle to fly as he was sent skidding across the water,
Regaining his composer, Zabuza looked up to see Naruto twirling his blade at high-speed by the chain attached to the end of the sword before he grabbed it by the handle did black red outlined flames appear on the blade, causing his eyes to widen
"All this talk of blood is making me thirsty. Uzumaki Style- Getsuga Tensho!" Naruto said as he swiped his sword down and an blade of energy discharged speeding at Zabuza and overtaking him as the sea was parted in two with the seafloor being able to be seen
"He did it!" Tazuna yelled in awe before his eyes widened along with everyone else's when Zabuza appeared behind Naruto and slashed him across the back,
Zabuza smirked before his eyes widened when Naruto turned out to be a water clone, before he turned when Naruto tried to slash him at the waist the strength caused him to skid across the surface of the water, before he placed his sword on his back before he sped through handseals "Water Release: Water Dragon Bullet Jutsu!"
A large dragon made of water burst from the sea, and headed toward Naruto who sped out of the way, and was before Zabuza in a moments notice, Zabuza looked down at the vamped out face of his hated enemies only child as he was about to get run through, but he quickly performed the substitution jutsu
Naruto cut through the log without any resistance, before he ducked when Zabuza tried to take his head off, before he jumped away when Zabuza tried to slice him in half, causing the water to splash up, Naruto turned to see another Zabuza in front of him as the last one dispersed into water,
"Die!" Zabuza screamed in bloodthirsty excitement as he tried to decapitate Naruto
CLANG
Kakashi had reappeared in front Zabuza blocked his zanbatou, with a backhand
"You did good Naruto, but Zabuza's fight is with me." Both shinobi backed away from each other a bit. "Good work team. Now leave the rest to me."
"Knock yourself out." Naruto said before he took a step to the side and was beside his teammates in a flash of vamp speed
Everyone watched as both jounin level shinobi then rushed and began to fight on the surface of the water. First they engaged each other in some taijutsu before resorting to their weapons once more. Finally, both of them distanced themselves from each other as Zabuza started going through hand seals. Soon enough, Kakashi started going through hand seals, the same that Zabuza was doing and Naruto was watching every move with his Sharingan. Finally after 42 hand seals the two shinobi simultaneously stopped at the bird hand seal.
"Water Release: Water Dragon Bullet Jutsu!" the two yelled before the water surrounding the two shinobi locked in combat began to swirl and twist violently. The water took the shape of two water dragons emerging on opposite sides as they clashed against each other and they both negated each other perfectly.
Zabuza gritted his teeth, before he looked to the side Naruto's Sharingan was staring at him, and he quickly looked away
'I heard he had the Sharingan!' Zabuza thought with a grimace as not only did he have to fight Kakashi, but an Uzumaki with a cursed blade, with Uchiha eyes. 'I've got to get away from-'
"This place." Kakashi said as he looked at Zabuza, whose eyes widened
"What did you say?!" Zabuza yelled
"You heard me." Kakashi said
"Damn you Kakashi." Zabuza said and he started going through more hand seals, along with Kakashi "You can't be-"
"-at me!" Kakashi said at the same time as Zabuza who looked at him in shock
"You're just a copycat!" they both yelled
"Stop copying me you worthless ape!" they said at the same time again, but this time Zabuza actually saw a reflection of himself standing behind Kakashi as the Copy Ninja's hand seal speee increased. Zabuza was shaken to his core as Kakashi surpassed the hand seal he was at.
'What?! Is he finishing my own jutsu-' Zabuza thought
"-before me?!" Kakashi said as Zabuza saw the tomoe spin wildly once more "This is the end! Water Release- Giant Vortex Jutsu!"
The water began to thrust violently once more as it rose several metres high before it streamed down towards Zabuza in one big wave, much like a gigantic waterfall. Zabuza was hit straight on as he was dragged back by the jutsu, before he crashed through three trees due to the sheer force of the jutsu. It also destroyed some parts of the forest around it as well, making the scene look like a natural disaster.
Zabuza groggily got up, unable to believe what happened, before he looked up when he saw Kakashi appear in front of him "That eye... does it show you the future?" Zabuza asked.
"Yes. It shows your death."
Before Kakashi could stab Zabuza, senbons were thrown out of the trees and struck Zabuza in his neck and several other spots.
Kakashi jumped back and looked up to see that a hunter nin was in the trees before he saw that his team had arrived and Naruto had deactivated his Sharingan. Naruto looked at the hunter nin, coming to the conclusion that this person was the one he had sensed earlier
"Thank you for weakening Zabuza. I've been hunting him for quite some time." The hunter nin said
Sakura was asking who that person was and Naruto gave a quick explanation as to what a Hunter nin was, as Kakashi went forward to check whether Zabuza's body had a pulse. Naruto shook his head as he didn't hear a heartbeat at all, but he noticed that Kakashi was walking a bit groggily and was tired, when Kakashi came back, and Naruto eyes narrowed when the Hunter nin picked up Zabuza's body. Standard protocol stated that only the head was required.
"He-" Naruto grunted in annoyance when the Hunter nin quickly vanished with Zabuza
"Something wrong Naruto?" Kakashi asked as he placed his headband back over his left eye. His entire body was tired, which was understandable as Kakashi had gotten lazy over the years.
"The hunter nin was a fake. He used senbon needles instead of cutting off the head and taking it with him." Naruto said while Kakashi had realization dawning on him.
"Ahhh... Senbon needles. They cut off the pulse." Kakashi said as he sat down. "Looks like one of you will have to carry me." Naruto immediately made two shadow clones as they carried Kakashi,
"Hey old man, lead us to your place." Naruto ordered getting a nod from Tazuna before they began to walk away
Finished
Kurama's Chakra grants Naruto the ability to steal memories, and Kekkei Genkai.
Madara, and Hashirama's memories end at the Valley of the End, while Tobirama's end right before his last mission.
From the Originals, Naruto gained the ability to turn on those close to him, if they ever turned on him. A desire for love, and companionship. A need to see his family safe, and happy, although the only family he had is Tsunade Senju, and members of the Uzumaki clan.
Also Mikoto is alive, she is in a coma
