Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto or any of it's characters
"Now then...it's time your learn your place!" ( and cue Naruto fight music, you know the one where fights Neji at the exams)
Kakashi and Sakura where incomplete shock at what they where seeing let alone what they felt. Kakashi felt surprise having never seen someone Naruto's age unleash so much chakara. Sakura felt calm... too calm as if the feeling that everything was gonna be alright, as the feeling sweapted her body. Sasuke on the other hand well he was angry but it wasn't out of jealousy. No it was two things the first being that he felt he wasn't training hard enough. The second being that he felt disrespected by Naruto. He knew the blonde held back having asked him from time to time. Naruto always told him that he was getting at least eighty-five percent, but now he knew that it was a lie.
( I"ll kick his ass later)
thought Sasuke as he laid there thanking Kami was alive let alone conscious, he did just go to absolute zero. The chakara around Naruto began to die down once it was all gone, an arua began to surrounded Naruto. It was a beautiful site as the aura kept changing from blue to red.
" Do you think that by putting on a show you can scare me!"
said Zabuza as he lifted his sword ready to attack seeing this Naruto reached for his chain. He pulled out a new sword it was jet black with sharp theeth on the bottom front, towards the center it had a small curve in it till it returnd to normal size closer to the hilt. Naruto took his stance he turned his body with his right leg and arm foward sword at the ready, while having his left leg shoulder with apart behind him as for his left arm he placed it behind is back. Naruto dashed foward at incredible speed Zabuza braced himself, bringing his sword up to deflect Naruto's stirke. Zabuza deflected the diagnal slash in doing so he went for a horizontal strike trying to cut the blode in half at the waist. Naruto saw this and manage to bring his sword up to block.
( Dam that's a heavy sowrd)
Thought Naruto as he felt the impact, if he wasn't pumping chakara trough his body the way he was that might have hurt. They quickly exchanged blows at high speeds that only Yamato and Kakashi were able to follow.
" This kid is incredible, why didn't I get him from the start".
said Tazuna causing Sakura to sink her head while the now sitting down Sasuke shot him a look of anger.
" You shouldn't be speaking, after all you did lie to the Hokage about the seriousness of your request. Your lucky that you didn't get my team from the beginning. That boy and I don't like liars and could careless for their reasons. If it had been us... you would have been on your own".
Said Yamato in such a cold tone that Tazuna just back away from the man.
" Fire style: pheinox fire jutsu!"
Naruto fired multiple fire balls at Zabuza who began evasive maneuvers to dodge all of them. Managing to get away from the jutsu Zubuza took a swing at Naruto, seeing this Naruto used the grove in his sword to pin down Zabuza.
" You know what's the bad part about being a master swordsmen". said Naruto
"What!"
" You get so dam depended on a weapon... let's see how you do with out it!"
using his sword Naruto twisted Zabuzas blade forcing him to let go. Naruto made a clone who took the blade and took off with, seeing this Zabuza growled in anger. Naruto on the other hand smirked as he took his sword and stabed it in the ground.
" Do you think that a Shinobi like myself would be so limited!"
Zabuza charged foward and fierce taijutsu battle commenced, if the smirk on Naruto's face was any indicator he was having the time of his life.
With Naruto's clone
Naruto's clone had been hauling ass away from the fight, as he made his way trough the woods he found a place to stash the sword. Having just set the sword down he was attacked. Not being a reinforced clone he instantly began to go poof, right before he did do he managed to get a glimps of his attacker.
Back with Naruto
" What the..."
said Naruto as the memories came back unfortunately he got distracted by it, Zabuza saw the opening and took full advantage. He landed a hard right to the jaw of Naruto followed by a vicious head kick that connected right into Naruto's temple. Naruto was sent flying and came down hard on the floor, mainly due to beeing a heavier then hell guy. Not waisting any time Zabuza went for the kids sword, Naruto at this point was shaking of the cob webs.
( Not to self a have Kamui) Thought Naruto as he saw Zabuza with his sword.
" Hey freak with no eyebrows, you should put that down before you hurt yourself".
Zabuza swung the sword a few more times to get the feel for it. While he did this Naruto removed the chains from his pants and slowly began to wrap them around his hands and fore arms. Zabuza took his stance while Naruto did the same, they both dash towards each there fight continued Yamato gave Shino a signal. Nodding Shino went to work while he did that Hinata was finishing up bandaging up Sasuke. This caused Sakura to get mad after Hinata basically ordered her to go get Kiba. In Sakuras head she should be the one tending to Sasuke.
" There all done how are you feeling?" asked Hinata
" I'm fine... Thank you".
Sakura heard Sasuke say those words and was completly shocked, she had been fonding over Sasuke for years and never heard him say it. She just stared at Hinata as she began to work on Kiba who was still out of it. Clenching her fist in anger she made a vow that moment to be better than Hinata and not be so usless any more. The fight continued but was completly stopped when Zabuza's clone went poof.
" Zabuza it's time we finish this".
said Kakashi as he stood above the water now free, Zabuza felt irritated he had gotten so into the fight that he didn't even now how they had freed him. Standing there Zabuza began to way his options, as he did that Naruto walked over and stood infront of Kakashi. That's when Kakashi saw it his Sharigan ripping trough Narutos genjutsu, not beeing able to find the words Naruto spoke up.
" This is no longer your fight Hatake".
" How how do you have...".
" I'll tell you later, for now stay out of this".
Naruto turned around to face Zabuza taking a deep breath he beagn to channel chakra into his chains.
" It's time we finish this boy".
" Fine with me, this is gonna be fun".
Naruto's aura flared back to life as his fist began to light up brighter untill, his left hand was set on fire while his right was emiting lighting. At first Kakashi tought that it was his jutsu but that was not the case. Since he had his face bandage you could not tell but Zabuza had a smirk on his face. The kid had proven that he was diffret and in a small way he had earn his respect. They charged at each other but this time Naruto had a diffrent plan. Zabuza made his move as he tride to go for a decapitating strike, seeing this Naruto activated his Kamui letting the blade pass trough him. When the blade exited the body Naruto quickly grabbed Zabuza wrist the smell of flesh beeing burnd filed the air as Naruto had a vice like grip. Narto began to tee off on Zabuza with his free arm with rapid punchess. Having felt like he felt that Zabuza was done Naruto let go of him and took a step back. Zabuza did not fall he stood there breathing heavily, his chest covered in burn marks his wrist blacked from the burn. Naruto's fist began to glow brighter at this point as he pumped more chakara, Zabuza looked on no fear on his eyes he lived as a shinobi and would die like one. Naruto cocked both arms back as he steped into a double palm to Zabuza chest. Zabuza was sent flying into the trees much like Sasuke before but with much more force. A sickinging snap echoed, Naruto began to walk foward towards the man feeling that job had not been done.
" You are one stubborn basterd you know that".
said Naruto as he picked up his sword, and proving his point Zabuza began to stand up. Naruto was a few feet away when Zabuza was hit from the side. Looking around they spotted the attacker who stood on top of a tree (cannon style looks Haku), the Shinobi then jumped of and landed next to Zabuza as he did that Kakashi and Yamato stood next to Naruto.
" Thank you for the help, I will be taking Zabuza now".
spoke the person on soft tone almost feminen. The three of them stood there exchanging looks. Kakashi stepped foward and checked a puls but there was none. The Shinobi then nodded and took off with Zabuza.
" Can some one tell me what that was about and why did we let him take the guy?" asked Naruto
" Well they are what you call bounty hunters, they work for the hokages of their village that symbol on the mask he was wearing is proof". said Kakashi
" Well that's a new one but don't any of you think that it's strange that he didn't ask about Zabuza's sword?"
the two of them head snap to stare at Naruto who was unravelling the chains he had. They both stared and notice the skin undernath while it wasn't chared up it was damaged, but that was slowly going away as it was already healing up.
" It seems that your last technique has some bad side affects". said Kakashi
" You could say that all though it us to be worst".
" Kakashi I know that you saw Naruto's eyes when he stood infront of you and I know that you have some questions, but we shoud get to them later after we reach wave country".
said Yamato, Kakashi nodded he knew that Yamato was right. They all where getting ready to leave when Naruto collapsed.
"Naruto!"
was all he heard as he slipped into unconsciousness.
Some time later
Naruto opened his eyes slowly as he got usto the darkness, looking around he saw that he was in a room. He felt something heavy on his chest looking down he notice Hinata was resting her head on top of him.
" Hey fox what the hell happend?"
" You where a dam Idiot! I warned you that you would feel the strain on your chakara after the jump, and yet like a child you charged a opponent. What did you think would happend?" Next time don't forget that your not the only one in this body".
Naruto did not say anything he just laid there and tought what the fox had told him. Having kicked him self in the ass for awhile he figured that he needed to get back to work, slowly moving he woke Hinata up. She stired around and slowly began to open her eyes.
" Hey sweetheart... did you have your way with me while I slept?" he said in a playfull tone
" Naruto! are you ok?"
she said as they sat up not having botherd with his joke.
" Yeah I'll be fine don't worry, so where are we anyway?"
" Oh well we are in Tazunas home, after you passed out we hurried here. I was with you here before I passed out but I think that every one is down stairs about to eat".
" Well then i guess we should join them".
Hinata nodded her head and they both maid their way towards the kitchen, as they got to the stairs Naruto notice that the room next to them had the lights on. He could hear some one crying. Not really knowing what was going on he just shrugged it off and walked down the steps. When he reached the bottom he saw evreyone sitting down, and a woman who was over by the stove getting the food ready ( Cannon stlye Tsunami).
" It seems that you finally decided to wake up, how are you feeling Naruto?" said Yamato worried about his student.
" I'm alright sensei just need to get us to making those kinds of jumps".
Yamato nodded knowing what he was talking about. Team seven just looked at each other trying to figure out what he meant by jumps. They talked amongst themselves for awhile and Naruto was introduce to Tsunami as she served and thanked him for what he did.
" Naruto when we are finished with our dinner I would like to speak with you".
Naruto turned and looked at Kakashi and just nodded, he knew what this was gonna be about he just hopped that Kakashi didn't say anything while he was unconscious.
" I think that it would be best if we began to trainning tomorrow morning". said Yamato
" Sounds good after the state that Naruto left Zabuza im sure that it would take a week or two before he is back. By the way Naruto what happend to the Zabuzas sword?"
" You are all fools!"
They all turned to see a small boy standing there with his head down and fist bald up in anger. ( cannon style looks)
" Innari you shouldn't say such things". said Tsunami
" Why not! it doesn't matter they should just go away and mind their own business".
" Hahahahahahahaha! wow your daugther sure knows how to throw a bitch fit".
" Naruto! what is the matter with you". said Hinata
" What tell me I'm lying".
" Shut up! I'm a boy and what do you know about suffering?"
" Hahahahahahaha!".
Naruto was basically rolling around on the floor while evreyone else just stared. When he began to calm down he stood up and walked over to the kid.
" So tell me kid how many times have you been chased and beaten by the members on your village trough your life?"
" Wha... what?"
" How many stores kicked you out sold you rotten food? When did you have to go garbage diving for food? Sleep all alone at night in the worst part of town all alone with no power? Live day by day surviving with no mom or dad at all and never knowing why this happenng to you. Hell that's just me emo boy over there yeah, his whole clan was murdered and his parents right infront of him by his own brother. Hinata she was dissowned and thrown out into the streets if I didn't run into her who knows what would have happend. So go a head kid tell me what's real suffering like?"
The room staid quite as the blonde look on at the boy.
" Well good talk, tell you what when you have a answer for me let me know".
Naruto then walked out of the house shorlty after Kakashi did as well it was time they had there talk.
Unknown location
A figure stood infront of the door, it was staring at Zabuza who was laying down heavily bandage up.
" So do you think that he will be ok?" ( asked the peron at the door)
" Yeah I'm sure that he will be fine, I heald him as best as a could. But don't worry Haku, Zabuza is not one to die so easly.
Flashback
Haku broke in the door in a panic she had Zabuza over her shoulder. She put Zabuza in a room then began to look around desperately, when she took out the senbon needels Zabuza did not wake up. She began to look around the rest of place not having found anyone she headed for the door.
" Don't worry Zabuza I'll be right..."
Haku ended up on her ass, avoiding the pain of having felt like she hit a wall she shot up.
" Zaku you have to hurry Zabuza needs your help!".
Zaku is about 5' 11 tall, he did not wear a shirt just wore a open dark blue trench coat, and had snowy white hair. ( Not gonna lie this guy is just Dante from DMC, but instead of a red coat i made it blue whitch I do not own)
" Well that explains why the door is in pieces don't worry do, I'll take care of it".
said Zaku as he walked towards Zabuza you could see Zaku's hands glowing green.
Flashback end
They both sat in the living room going over everything in detail. Although Zaku was having a hard time beliving that some one around Haku's age could take on Zabuza. In the end Haku began to make some tea when they had a knock on the door. Not waiting the person came trough followed by a entourage of thugs. The short man stood infront of Zaku who didn't even move from his seat.
" So I heard that the supposed deamon of the mist was almost killed. What the hell am I paying you pepole for!"
Haku came back with the tea and poured a cup for Zaku and herself. The man was watching this and grew angrier.
" Hey you two pieces of crap don't ignore me! What did I tell you boys these two are nothing more then trash,they don't even have the decency to serve tea to thire guest".
" Say's the man who is not welcomed here. Tell me Gato before I throw your ass out of here, why did you come?" (asked Zaku)
Gato did not like they way that he was talked to, he snap his fingers and the thugs surrounded the two. Gato had a shit eating grin on his face.
" You two brat's should learn that this is the real world and respect your superiors. Now then while they keep you company, I'm gonna go and see how Zabuza is doing".
Gato began to walk towards the other room,the thugs began to close in getting ready to attack they there shock when they heard Gato screaming in pain.
" Get it out! Get it out now!"
Two of the thugs rushed over, they were shocked to see that a kunia was stabed into Gato's foot. The craziest part was the angel of the kunia, it was stabed from the front. Freaking out the two looked inside of the room thinking that Zabuza had woken up, but that was not the case. One of the thugs grabbed the kunia and pulled it out. It was at this point Zaku finished his tea and stood up, seeing this the remaining thugs ready themselves.
" Well Gato it's been a interesting visit, but as you can see Zabuza needs his rest. As for the bridge builder, he will still die in about two weeks give or take. Now then... get the fuck out of here!"
" You stupid bastard! who do you think you are ordering me around boy's!"
The thugs heard the order but as soon as they took a step foward, half them fell dead on the floor.
" In case your wondering the only reason some of you are still alive, is because someone has to get these body's and Gato out of here".
Gato began to freak out as he ordered his men to get him out of there.
With Naruto
After having left Naruto began to walk around, he found himself in a clearing in the forest. Naruto had a lot on his mind, he did not feel injurd or any type of strain on his body. Feeling a bit of relief, he began to reset his seals when he sensed him.
" You know if you keep sneaking around me like that, I might get the feeling that you don't trust me".
" Well I heard from Yamato that you were a sensor and you did want me to test you didn't you".
" I guess you have a point, now hang on a second I'm almost done".
Naruto continued to set up his seals, after a few moments his entire body began to glow. Kakashi looked on and was rather impressed to see the blonde work. When Naruto was done he knew that things where about to get annoying.
" So you can use and creat seals , you train others and you have the Sharigan. That is rather impressive for someone so young".
" Coming from the guy who was the second youngest anbu captin, that's kind of funny".
" True... but what say we skip this part and get to why I'm here". said Kakashi in a more serious tone.
" Sounds good with me, I'll answer as honest as I can. In return I have a few questions for you".
" Alright then I'll ask the obvious, Naruto how do you have the Sharigan?"
" Oh that's a simple answer, it turns out that I'm a Uchiha".
" And I take it that besides Yamato the Hokage also knows?"
" That's right and my teamates, I dont think I have to explain to you of all pepole how important it is that it stays that way".
" I understand, but tell me why not make that known? With you being a Uchiha your life would have been a little easier don't you think?"
" There are several reasons why and to be honest... I don't feel like going trough all of them".
" Fair enough, then now it's your turn".
" Alright then tell me... Why don't you train your genin to their potential?"
Kakashi just stood there staring at Naruto, his usual calm attitude gone and now replace with a more serious one.
" I believe that I train them to there limit".
" You know Kakashi you should really take up gambling, you got the face fore it. I mean you where able to say all that bullshit with a straight face".
Kakashi felt off his game, usually he did not let anyone get to him. But this boy he was diffrent, it was clear that he did not give a dam who he spoke to. Being who he was Kakashi did his eye smile and spoke,
" You know Naruto it's not polite to swear".
" Really!?... Oh well I never said I was polite". ( Kakashi sweat drops) But hey tell me why do you refuse to train them? Hell after our previous conversation I tought you would at least teach them basic chakara control".
" It is up to the sensei to teach a student, at the time I did not belive that they needed it".
" Where those the teaching ways of Minato? Is that the reason Obito and Rin died?"
It was as this point that Naruto saw it he had finally got to Kakash. Call Naruto a asshole or whatever but he always had a reason for what he did.
" Naruto why did you say that?"
" To prove a point, I read all about it. I always wanted to ask you, after all that happen to you why? You seen first hand that one person cannot protect evreyone! Is it beacuse of this ( Naruto activated his Sharigan) let me tell you something. These eyes don't grant you all power, even Minato never relied on his".
Kakashi just stood there as Naruto's words just sank in, as he did something clicked.
" Wait how did you know if Minato had the Sharigan?"
Naruto didn't answer he instead turn his back and began to walk away. Seeing this actually angerd Kakashi. Not wanting to let him get away Kakashi stepped foward and grabbed one of Naruto's shoulders. In return Naruto flared his chakara, turning around he shoved Kakashi back.
" Listen carefully Hatake, I respect who you are but you are not my sensei. If you really want to know then..."
Naruto took his stance his Sharigan spinning, Kakashi just stood there watching. After having seen him fight he knew Naruto should not be taken lightly. Taking in a deep breath he lifted his head band revealing his Sharigan.
" We both have a early day tomorrow, so what's say that we skip the warm up". said Kakashi
Naruto nodded in response and they both pulled out kunias, but before Naruto moved Kakashi appeared behind him.
" Don't let your opponent get behind you, you maybe good but you still have a lot to learn". said Kakashi
" It seems that the jounin wants to teach a few things, he also seems to be underestimating you".
( I notice, let's show him why that's a bad idea).
Kakashi held the kunia in place, Naruto wanted to have a little fun activating his Kamui he just steped backwards into the kunia. Kakashi quickly pulled the kunia away, when he did that Naruto spun around and deliverd solid left hook to Kakashis face. When the punch collided Naruto notice.
" A clone? Then where is the real..."
" Earth style: Head Hunter Jutsu".
Naruto looked down in time to see Kakashi's hand comnig out the ground. The next thing he notice he was burried up to his neck. Looking around he saw Kakashi coming out of one of the trees.
" You know Sasuke fell for the same jutsu when I did his survival exam, maybe your not as good as you think".
" Not gonna lie this is a cool jutsu, but if you think you got me".
Naruto had a smirk on his face, he just phased trough the floor and picked himself up. Kakashi looked on and began to wonder how he wasn't able to copy him. Not wanting to play anymore Naruto rushed Kakashi. Quickly moving his hands Naruto unseald a few kunia and sent them in all derections . Seeing one off the kunia coming his way Kakashi just sidestep it, as he did he brought his hands up in time to block Naruto's punch. Grabbing hold of the blonde Kakashi use the momentum to send him flying.
" Fire style Fire ball jutsu!"
Kakashi sent a massive fire ball towards Naruto who was still in mid air. Seeing this Naruto went trough his own hand seal and shoot a massive fire ball back. The jutsus collided causing a explosion witch sent the airborn Naruto crashing down.
" Fire style: Phenoix Flower Jutsu".
" Shit!"
was all that Naruto said as he had just stood up when the fire balls came at him. Naruto began to run like hell, as he did he began closing the gap between them. Seeing this Kakashi let up on the jutsu, just in time to dodge Naruto. They began a tauijutsu fight where they both where counter for counter. Naruto always wonder what it would be like to fight another Sharigan weilder, and it was what he tought. Kakshi was good, they where both holding back but even do he was predictig Naruto's moves. Hell in a few of these exchanges he got the better of Naruto. After a quick shot to one another they both created space.
" Not bad Naruto, tell me your fighting style where did you learn it?"
" Belive it or not from a few book's and a lot of practice. But I guess I'll just go a head and end this now".
At this Kakashi raised his eyebrow, he kept his eyes on Naruto watchig him for any moment. But what he did not notice what was right behind him. Then it happen for the first time in years Kakashi saw it the yellow flash. Kakashi did not know what hit him, Naruto reapeard grabbing him and spun him around. He then rocked Kakashi with a hard haymaker, follewd by a couple of body blows. Naruto ended it by driving his fist to Kakashi's solarplexes forcing him to actually buckle over as he tried to catch his breath. Naruto reached to his chain and got two water bottles, he then just set down next to Kakashi who began to sit himself down.
" Alright then good fight, not saying we were both going all out but hey it was fun. Now at this point you probably have a lot of questions, so I'll just go ahead and answer while you catch your breath. First of yes that was the Hiraishin no Jutsu ( Flying Thunder God). Now then the reason I know that Minato had the Sharigan, is beacuse Minato is my father".
Kakashi began to spit out his water, wich caused Naruto to chuckle as he had waited for Kakashi to take a drink. After a few seconds Kakashi just looked at Naruto as he stared at the blonde it hit him. (" He looks just like sensei"). Kakashi felt like the one of the worlds biggest Idot, he began to wonder who it's not possible for anyone to notice. Was the villlegers hatred for the boy really that strong. And that is when it hit him again , he should have been there for him. He knows how the jinjuriki host are treated. They both stood up and that's when Kakshi spoke.
" Naruto... I'm... sorry".
Naruto raised an eyebrow at this, he could hear the sadness in his voice.
" I should have been there for you, I should protected you and...".
" That's enough of that, listen it's not your fault. First of how could you have known I may look like him, but hell If Minato hadn't told me I might not have believe him. Besides my life is pretty good now. I have people that I care for and two girls that love me".
" Two?" asked Kakashi he new that Hinata would be one but who is the other.
" The answer to your next question is Ayame the girl from Ichirakus".
Kakashi sweatdrop as he was trying to narrow down someone.
" Naruto, what is your dream?"
" It's to become the greatest Hokage, to pass all does who came before me".
( Sensei I might not have been there for your son growing up. But I will be there for him from now on, I will not fail you).
" Well alright then... If you really want to surpass them, I'll help you".
" Well alright, now then Minato wrote something in his jurnal that I always wanted to ask you about... What the hell is a chidori?"
Authours notes: And well there you have it. Alright first things first One I do apologize for the long wait, my life got really mest up but now im back. The next chapter will be the end of the wave arc and I know that the fights I do aint the best but I'll work on them. And lastley dont forget to R&R.
