Chapter Nine: Sharks, Funerals, and Team Naming

They took the three men to the closest village which was the leaf and asked for assistance. Tsunade agreed and sent TenTen and lee with them. Zabuza and Itachi followed Sasuke, who was following Naruto so he could take his swords and kill him. They soon reached a hill where a building appeared. "IT CAN NOT BE! THE KURI SHOP OF LIFE!" yelled Lee as he took off at top speed.

They reached the building to see lee hugging an old woman. "Lee, it's good to see you." she said to him once she quit being dizzy. Lee kept looking behind her into the shop.

"Where is your son Old Lady?" she looked down then turned and walked into the shop. She stirred some kuri (sp?) and said "He was accepted as Riaga's apprentice earlier and has been gone for about three weeks."

"Don't worry, we will bring him back to you!" yelled Lee. And then he added his catch phrase. "AND I WILL DO IT WITH THE POWER OF YOUTH!" Naruto leaned against the door and shook his head. He swung his zanbato and sliced open the tree outside the door.

"And if you can't and he resists, we kill him and Riaga then take the swords back to the village." everyone shot a weird look at Naruto as he went back outside with his team. Isaribi had a question that was bugging her for a while so she asked it.

"Hey guys, I know Riaga has a huge bounty in the bingo book, but that's all I know. What makes him so powerful?" Naruto signaled for Haku to explain and he went to investigate an explosion that had just occurred and jumped away.

"Well, you know I use focus swords to attack with ice and freezing cold winds right? Well, Riaga uses focus swords to control lightning and thunder. What makes his so special is that they are made from Focus Ore, an indestructible metal that quintuples the power of the element and doubles as a summoning contract for elementals. We need to keep him from finding out about the contract or we're screwed."

"Man that is a lot of info on one guy. Do you think we should go help Naruto out or would you rather sty here?" as an answer, Haku plopped down onto the side of the hill they had found and pulled out a bento and began to eat.

(With Naruto)

Naruto arrived in the tree and found a man with a plant head fighting a man with blue skin and a sword rapped in bandages. The blue skin guy spoke up and said "I was rejected from Akatsuki Zetsu, and I won't go back there, period." the plant man named Zetsu sent out a whip that was cut off and growled.

"YOU WILL COME WITH ME, please Kisame. It would be in your best interest. OR I'LL KILL YOU!" said Zetsu. Naruto put his palm flat facing the back of Zetsu and charged some black chakra. "Demon Fire Missile Jutsu!" the black chakra, Nidhogg's chakra, blasted out and burned the plant man, who became a log. Naruto jumped down next to Kisame.

"Who are you kid? I'm not saying I'm not grateful, but I would like to know your name." the plant man came back with a boy with red hair and some kind of white tube in his chest.

"The name's Naruto Uzimaki Namikaze. Who are these guys any way?" a plant with a snake body shot out and Naruto used his Zanbato to cut it in half.

"The plant one is Zetsu and the boy is Sasori of the red sand. He has a bunch of puppets that are actually dead bodies, and even went so far as to turn him self into a puppet. Where exactly did you learn to use a zanbato like that from?" he cut a body in half as the two jumped back.

"I'm from the Village hidden in the Mist, and my sensei is Zabuza. We're here to kill Riaga and take his blades back to the village." he used his Kekkai Genkai to send a bunch of clamors and slice up some bodies rapped in plants.

"Oh, so you are probably really good with zanbato and suck at Katanas." he smiled, but he dropped his jaw when he sent a black flame version of Nidhogg from the blade of Clarent and an ice tiger from the elemental katana.

"Naruto, need any help with these guys?" Naruto nodded and Zabuza appeared, followed by Itachi. Zabuza wiped blood down the blade and swung it out at the bodies, making a huge mist lion destroy the bodies.

"Zabuza Momochi and Itachi Uchiha of the hidden Mist and hidden Leaf; never thought I would see you in place like this. Lets leave this place before" he got cut off as Zetsu and Sasori came out with Sasuke holding an electric blade. Naruto did a large amount of one handed seals and huge black wings grew from his back, followed by a silver set of blades (think the claw things Harpie's brother uses, from Yu-Gi-Oh I guess), and three red tails.

"Kisame, Itachi, Zabuza-sensei, you get rid of the Akatsuki members and I'll take out Sasgay." Sasuke growled and let the Curse Mark spread over him.

"Dobe, I have a curse mark, you can't beat me. Orochimaru made sure of it." Naruto let his own Curse Mark flood his body and smiled.

"Sorry duck ass hair, but mine is a lot more powerful then yours. You could maybe take me in second stage if I held back, but you are too weak to go second stage." Sasuke looked shock, then all his chakra went into his curse seal and he changed. He got devil wings, horns grew from his head, and talons grew from his hands and feet. He looked like Alastor's true form, complete with the purple electricity floating around him.

"Here it comes dobe, so look out for my attacks." Naruto and Sasuke flew at each other and collided. Naruto threw a punch charged with the three occupants of his soul's chakra and his own, sending Sasuke into the lake. He was pretty much screwed now. He came out of the lake dripping wet and started to charge his electricity, but since this was his first time using stage two, he shocked him self.

Back with the others, Zabuza had just cut the two in half to find they were rock clones. They went over to the exhausted Naruto and took him back to the shop.

(One Week Later)

Naruto used his claws from the transformation to slice down the trees then made some Shadow Clones to take the fire wood back to the house. The others were all outside when he got back, telling him one of the men had gone to face Riaga. He used his wings and took off after the man.

He reached the building and found Riaga about to attack the idiot. "Riaga, I demand you give me your swords and DIE!" he drew his zanbato and slashed at the crazed swordsman. Riaga did two slashes; one to destroy the zanbato and another to get rid of Naruto's wings.

"You may be Zabuza's student, but that sucked kid. I won't ever bother giving you a funeral." he sent a bolt of lightning, but it exploded when it made contact with a lance of ice and snow. Haku, Zabuza, Itachi, and the newest member of the group, Kisame, came out of hiding and took battle stances. A bunch of missing-nin came out and attacked Haku, Itachi, and Kisame while Zabuza and Naruto fought Riaga.

Naruto went Demon Mode on his mother's sword and began to repeatedly strike his swords against Riaga's. It began to rain and Naruto got soaked, giving Riaga an edge. He shocked Naruto, making him black out. Zabuza looked between Naruto and Riaga and let out a howl. He drenched his sword with his blood and swung it outward, making a huge pack of panthers, lions, leopards and cheetahs run at him. Riaga sliced them apart with quick speed and turned on Zabuza.

He sent a bunch of lightning at him and rushed forward. He stabbed the Demon of the Bloody Mist in the stomach and pulled out the blade. Naruto had just stood up and watched this. Zabuza fell to the ground, his blood pooling around him. "No, no, NO, NO, NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!"

They sound started out as a low whisper, then a loud voice, then a yell, then a demonic roar, and finally a devil-like death roar. Naruto did hundreds, thousands of one handed seals quickly and began his transformation. He grew giant talons, ten tails grew from his back, nine red, one black, black flames rapped around his body in a hellish display, and huge versions of his claws appeared on his arm. He got giant red, silver, blue, and black wings and held a flaming broad sword in each hand.

"Riaga, you better be ready to die, because I will kill you for what you have done to Zabuza-sensei. Now, DIE YOU FUCKING BASTARD!" he dashed at Riaga so fast the ground he ran on was scorched and everything from rocks to trees around him were blown apart. He began to slash Riaga, then slammed his swords into the ground and began to repeatedly punch the unattached head of Riaga until he broke all the way through the skull. "Naruto, come here, quickly."

Zabuza was calling for Naruto, so he changed back and made some clones to take him there. "Naruto, my sword…I want you to have it. It was originally an Uzimaki Heirloom but when a Momochi married an Uzimaki, they had a son who got the sword. I always thought of you as a son, so please, take the sword."

"Zabuza-sensei, please don't die, please don't die. You mean the world to me sensei. Please don't die, please!" tears rolled down his face and fell into the blood, clearing it away. Naruto sent all the healing chakra he had into Zabuza, but nothing worked. The shadowy figure of his father appeared and whispered something into Naruto's eye. Naruto focused, wiping the tears away from his eyes and small silver flames appeared on his fingers.

He pushed them into Zabuza's stomach and he glowed silver, then leaned up. "W-what did you do N-Naruto?"

"I used a family jutsu on you. I know you recently got married when I went on that two month to find Granny Tsunade, and that seal will keep you live, until you have a son. When he is born, your soul will be placed into his and you will be aloud to help him through life. Now, get every one to take us to Granny Tsunade, or that jutsu will destroy all my muscles, and with the seal, my lungs might collapse." he blacked out and every one grabbed them, getting to Tsunade as quick as possible.

(Konoha hospital: Three Months later)

Haku, Itachi, and Kisame paced outside the room. Tsunade and Shizune finally came out with smiles on their faces. "We were able to heal him just in time. I don't know what would have happened if we hadn't. Zabuza is still asleep though, so you still can't visit him, but go ahead and talk to Naruto." before she was finished, Haku was beside Naruto's bed.

"Hey Haku, how ya been lately?" Haku laughed a little then got serious.

"Naruto, you almost died. Now is not the time to laugh. But on amore positive note, I was given Riaga's swords and placed in the seven." Naruto smiled, then saw Zabuza's sword on the wall.

"Haku, Zabuza-sensei isn't in here, so why is his sword?"

"Uh, one of the bolts of lightning…severed the tendons in his arms. He can use his hands but not his arms because we were too late. He's going to still be a shinobi but he can't use kenjutsu anymore, so he gave you his sword, as thanks for saving his life."

"I see, I see. Can you take me to see him Haku?" Haku shook his head and said "He is still recovering from the effects of the healing and that seal you placed on him. It will be a while. Though, the new Hokage wants to see you."

"What do you mean? I just saw Granny Tsunade a second ago."

"No, Tsunade turned down the title and went to get someone who would take it. He is the last living Uzimaki and his name is Jonji. He is actually really cool. I'll go get him." Haku disappeared and reappeared seven minutes later with man with lapis lazuli eyes, spiky red hair, a red shirt, gray pants, and a claymore on his back.

"Naruto, my name is Jonji and I am your mother's brother. I have spent the last fourteen years looking for you and now that I have you will become a Leaf ninja and stay with me!" he said excitedly.

"No, I am going back to the Village hidden in the Mist and if you try to keep us here, it will be considered an act of war. And considering how many people we have from other nations coming to us, you would die out quickly." Jonji seemed crest fallen, but then had an idea that made him happy.

"I can always come visit you in Mist though right?"

"Yeah, I guess that would be okay, but you would have to teach me some family jutsu." Jonji grinned and nodded. Kakashi Hatake came fuming for some reason. The first thing Naruto noticed was that his Sharingan eye was covered by a bandana instead of his head band. "Hey Hatake, what happened to your headband?"

"I got stripped of ninja rank because I refused to teach Sasuke any longer. He's in the other room yelling at the council for 'making the only person who could help him avenge the Uchiha name a civilian' as he says. Jonji, I hate to say it, but I am leaving this village." Jonji nodded at him and said "I really don't blame you, but where are you going to go?"

"He could come to Mist. We already got one Sharingan, and two would make the up coming war a lot easier. What do you say Kakashi?"

"Sure, but what war are you" BAM! He got cut off by a huge explosion going off down the hall. Naruto was instantly up and had Zabuza's sword in his hand. He opened the door, then looked at them and said "That was Sarutobi-grandpa's room!" he flashed down the hall and found an assassin from Hidden Sound Village trying to kill the old man. He swung the sword and cut them in half. He went to the third and found him asleep. He woke up at the sound of the sword swinging and looked to see the two halves fall and naruto cleaning the sword off.

"Naruto, what are you doing here?" he pointed at the man and the heavy bandages around his body and saw a bunch of other assassins running away from them. Both rushed after them and finally caught them in the woods. Mizuki was one of them, the villager who had always hated him. He smiled and began to spin a fuma shuriken on his finger until it sounded and looked like a buzz saw. He threw it at the injured Hokage, but Naruto got in the way and let it cut him across the chest. He fell to the ground.

(Soul Tunnels)

Naruto opened his eyes and watched as his dad took over his body. A song came to mind. He got bored so he decided to sing it. "On the ground I lay, motionless in pain. I can feel my life flashing me by." his memories began to flash before him as he went to the next part. "Did I fall asleep? Is this all a dream? Wake me up, I'm living a nightmare." the memory of his mother and father waking up in his room from his crying as a child came to him. "I will not die (I will not die), I will survive!" the memories came to him as his body in the real world stretched in, the exploded outward with silver chakra, and all the times he wouldn't go down formed around him, then another of Temari, the hokage, all his precious people.

'I will not die! I'll wait here for you! I feel alive, when you're beside me. I will not die; I'll wait here for you, in my time of dying!' memories of Zabuza, him and Haku together, doing mission and hanging out came back to him as took control of his body and could hear his father's soul piece singing the song. 'Moments that I lay, loosing every thing. I can see my life, passing me by.' more and more memories if Zabuza and the Hokage came back as he began to grew more demonic in his attacks and soon was slaughtering the bodies. 'Was it all too much, or just not enough? Wake me up, I'm living a nightmare.' his thoughts strayed to the battle with Riaga and how he could have stopped Zabuza from nearly dying if he had just been a little faster or a little stronger.

One of them stabbed Naruto in the stomach during his distraction, and he stumbled back, his hand trying to pull out the blade. 'I will not die (I will not die) I will survive!' he pulled the sword out and his chakra exploded and paralyzed the remaining group. 'I will not die! I'll wait here for you! I feel alive when you're beside me! I will not die; I'll wait here for you. In my time of dying!' his thoughts moved to the time Zabuza had put his arm around him and said he thought of him as a brother or a son, and how he had fought against Riaga for hurting him. He did a bunch of hand signs and thunder and lightning began to hit the ground around him and eventually make two dragons that circled him and each other.

'I will not die! I'll wait here for you! I feel alive when you're beside me! I will not die; I'll wait here for you. In my time of dying!' he remembered how Gai, Asuma, Anko, Kurenai, Sarutobi, and all the others helped him when he was in the village. He sent the dragons out and they killed every one of them except Mizuki. Naruto drew Clarent and the black flames surrounded it. 'I will not die! I'll wait here for you! I feel alive when you're beside me! I will not die; I'll wait here for you. In my time of dying!' he struck him across the chest and watched as the blood flew and the final memory of him and all the Jounin and Chuunin that cared about him pigged out at Ichiraku then sheathed Clarent and collapsed to the ground. ANBU came ten minutes later and found the Hokage healing Naruto and all the traitors dead.

"What happened Hokage, sir?" asked one wearing a pelican mask.

"Naruto saved me from an assassin then killed all these traitors, their leader being Mizuki." the ANBU examined the remains and found all but Mizuki to be genin or civilians who could run fast. They took Naruto back to hospital to rest and Sarutobi stayed in the room after he explained to his team that he had saved his life. A week later, the group left to head back to the village hidden in the mist. They waved one more time and ran to a lake, where Haku made ice mirrors for all of them, including Kakashi, to go through. They arrived at Naruto's castle that his ancestors had lived in and as soon as Naruto stood up, Hana jumped on him and gave him a hug. "Hey Naruto, it's been a while." said a voice from the stairs.

Naruto turned to see Temari and Gaara on the stairs. Kankuro followed them without his puppet and waved his hand at them while putting his 'War Paint' on his face. "Temari, Gaara, Make-up Boy, what are you doing here?"

"We were assigned to come to the mist village for a year as a peace treaty while three Chuunin from your village are in ours." said Temari as Gaara held Kankuro back with his sand.

"Cool, we can spend more time together." Temari nodded while blushing as Naruto put his arm around her and Hana's shoulders and went out. "So what do you want to see first Temari? I could show you the Infinite Whirlpool or the Mizukage fountains or we could teach you some advanced techniques like mist walking."

"How about we go see the whirlpool then the technique?" they walked to the middle of the woods and a whirlpool soon was insight as they neared a lake. What was so interesting about the whirlpool is that is was frozen in place by something. Naruto walked out to the lake and stepped onto the swirling mass, making it spin again. "It starts to move when it comes in contact with chakra, but I am the only one that can walk on it in the village so don't come any closer. The only way to walk on it is to emit chakra in the opposite direction, steadying the force of the water." once Naruto was back on land, they went to a huge clearing where Naruto had obviously unlocked the different mode of his transformation.

"Hidden Mist Jutsu." a mist covered the area, but thin enough they could see each other. "Okay Temari, try to focus your chakra into the mist and harden it then step on the hardened mist and climb or walk or what ever. Make a low path way first then make steps leading to a pathway." Temari focused a bunch of chakra into the air and took a step forward. The mist solidified and became a step. She began running up steps, then made a pathway. "Okay, you got it. Now for the harder exercise. Make a weapon out of the mist. Imagine the weapon made of chakra, then the mist rapping around it."

Temari did this and soon had two fans made of mist. She swung them at the trees and they froze. "It's frozen air Temari, so you have to be careful when using the Mist Weapon technique as we call it. Now, let's go check out the fountains." he dragged her to the center of the village where a bunch of stone sculptures of men and women had water coming out of them. The most spectacular one was a woman with a sword that looked like moving water that had water running from it. "Yeah, that is the ninth Mizukage, Kushina Uzimaki, my mother and the best swordsman has seen in a long time. I hope to surpass her one day though."

"So, your dad was the fourth Hokage, your mom was the ninth Mizukage, who were you grand parents?" Naruto smiled and said "Jiraiya and Tsunade of the Sannin. That means I'm related to the fourth, fifth, first, and second Hokage and the ninth, seventh, first, and third Mizukage. And I think we had some leaders in demon country but I'm not sure. Temari, are you okay?" the said girl had dropped to the ground with her legs twitching. A bunch of guys had come to see if she wore panties or not, but Naruto had pulled out his mom's sword, making the stone one shine. The others left and she pulled him up.

"Thanks Naruto; that could have been bad?'

"Why do you say that?'

"I went commando and I need to wash my clothes later. I just got here so I haven't had a chance."

"I see, so what do you want to do now that the tour is over?" she gave a sadistic smile and whispered something to Hana. They grabbed his arms and ran to the closes hotel and got a room. They were kicked out two and a half hours later for disturbing the other guests on that floor with the noise they were making and for breaking a bed. "I got to admit, getting laid gets better every time." said Naruto as they walked back to his place, making the girls blush.

"We better hurry before Gaara comes and starts looking for Me." they all shivered and began to run. They found Gaara asleep on a coach, much to their surprise. "Oh I forgot to tell you. That pervy frog guy came to Sand and fixed Gaara's seal. He was asleep for about five weeks after that. You think we could get away with some of the…fun… we had at the hotel?" they all smiled at this and slowly crept up the stairs to Naruto's room. Gaara woke up an hour later and went to find out why, and ended up wondering who was moaning and screaming in Naruto's room.

(Time Skip: New Mission assignments)

Naruto stood with his team in front of the council for the village. "Your team has been chosen to take this mission for your individual skills. A man came to our village earlier today. He will be going to a second village to get body guards. You are to be the attack force and get rid of the enemy ninja. This mission will bring us a large amount of money and ally us with the land of Snow, if things go correctly. Don't fail us." they moved to leave but a ninja council member stopped them. "One last thing you need to know. For know on, you will be known as the Villages Elemental Strike Force
