"Congratulations on surviving your A-ranked mission. However I am very disappointed in you Sakura...YOU ARE SUPPOSED TO BE THE TOP KUNOICHI IN YOUR GENERATION! KAMI ABOVE, I SWEAR YOU'RE THICKER THAN A ROCK! WHAT ARE THEY TEACHING YOU IN THE ACADEMY? I SWEAR EITHER THE ACADEMY HAS GONE DOWN HILL OR THIS GENERATION OF SHINOBI ARE SEVERELY RETARDED! FUCKING HELL, YOU CAN'T KEEP YOUR MOUTH SHUT. YOU DEMAND EVERYTHING OR BITCH ABOUT HOW MOMMY WILL GET YOU OUT OF THIS AND THAT!" Ranted Harry.
Harry had been ranting constantly nonstop since they took to the trees and were heading back to Konoha. Naruto couldn't help but snigger at Sakura's distraught state. "UZUMAKI NARUTO! JUST BECAUSE I CAN'T SEE YOU DOESN'T MEAN I CAN'T HEAR YOU! TEAM MATES AREN'T SUPPOSED TO LAUGH AT EACH OTHER BUT CONSIDERING YOU WERE THE ONE WHO FORCED US TO CARRY ON THIS SHOULD BE ON YOUR HEAD...ANYHOW CREDIT WHERE CREDIT IS DUE SASUKE AND YOU NARUTO DID EXCEPTIONALLY WELL!"
Sasuke and Naruto exchanged high fives as they headed through the trees. "Harry-sensei, do you have any tips for us because I felt like I was outgunned from the very start after our encounter with the demon brothers." Asked Naruto after clearing three branches in a single leap, Harry nodded.
"Alright, I have five commandments that I utilise whenever I am on a mission that goes horribly wrong. The first is When In Doubt Nuke Everyone. Second No Such Thing As Too Few Jutsu. Third Overkill Is Never Un-necessary. Forth If You See Me Run Do The Same But Harder and finally If We Can't Have It No-one Can." The genin and Kakashi nodded in acceptance of Harry's five commandments.
"Sensei do you have any jutsu that you use for commandment one?" Asked Sasuke curiously as he altered his speed to chat with Harry side by side as they jumped through the trees.
"Ototuo, I have fifteen to use for that commandment however it's not that I won't teach them to you it's more like you're unable to use them effectively and besides if you make one teensiest error as in one misplaced sign or a drop to much or too little chakra it's a 90% death rate with 10% survival rate and a 100% guarantee if you DO survive you will never be a shinobi again. I only use them in situations I call 'Hope, pray and spray situations.'" Sasuke gulped at his brothers statements and dropped the subject. Those sound like powerful jutsus as an Uchiha I should demand them but learning something I will never be able to use effectively worth it?
"Don't worry ototuo, we will help you get Itachi..." Said Kakashi from up ahead. "Uchiha are known to take first and develop second. IF you want to stand a chance against Itachi you will need to develop your own jutsu and play to your strengths. Harry ototuo and I have favours in the village to help you design your own 'NUKE' class techniques that could be more powerful than Harry's." Sasuke opened his eyes at the comment.
"I could be more powerful than Harry-aniki!" He exclaimed. Harry nodded "Definitely with your fire and lightning releases. You can make them extremely powerful. Being gohw natured means I can't develop all my natures as effectively...Don't worry Naruto, I know several jutsu that can literally blow you away. Sakura my water jutsu aren't the best but they are suited for you." Harry finished with a scathing tone.
Sasuke smirked ever since Sakura had discovered she had the weakest affinity to the third popular affinity in fire country Harry had been dropping sly comments about her ineptness at any interval. Unfortunately for Sakura she accepted them as compliments. How thick can she get. Everyone sans Sakura thought. She was thinking Harry sensei has forgiven me and will train me to use water jutsus. I can now impress Sasuke-kun. (A/N: NOT BASHING SAKURA DELIBERATELY JUST PAINTING HER AS I SEE HER)
Soon enough they arrived at the gates of Konoha to come across Izumo and Kotetsu, drinking sake and remaining semi-alert. "Hey you two, I'm gonna need that sake." With that Harry slipt them several ryo and took the four bottles of sake and they headed into the village.
"You'll understand why I'm drinking when we get to the Hokage tower." Explained Harry as the five shinobi made their way through the village. Soon enough they arrived at the Hokage tower. The receptionist snarled at Naruto and indicated for him to leave.
"He's not wanted in here." Growled the receptionist causing Sasuke and Sakura to look at their blonde team mate. What is she talking about? Naruto may be a nuisance but he's not caused anyone harm. They thought curiously. Kakashi closed his book with a snap and fixed the receptionist with a glare whilst Harry casually unsheathed his sword and morphed it into its scythe staff form with a katana blade leading into a scythe head. "I believe the Hokage will see us." Harry growled and the receptionist nodded.
Sarutobi Hiruzen the twice elected Hokage looked up from the mountain of paperwork to see the child he saw a second grandson, two favourite half siblings the last Uchiha and the Haruno daughter enter his office. "Well done on the C-rank..." He began to say but Harry cut him off.
"Lord Sarutobi, it was FUBAR mission. It should have been reclassified as a B or A rank mission as we ran into the Demon Brothers of the Mist, Momochi Zabuza of the Mist and Haku of the Hyoton Release." Hiruzen dropped his pipe and brush which Harry caught mentally only Sasuke and Kakashi noticed the faint pulse of chakra from his eyes as the two objects floated in midair.
"Thank you Harry-kun. That would have been most embarrassing coating oneself in ash and ink before having a council meeting." Harry snorted as his eyes flashed to his Eternal Mangenkyo Sharingan.
"On a surprisingly happy note Sasuke knows about me and on a dour note I request that during this meeting Genin Haruno Sakura be not allowed to speak because I fear family secrets may be divulged and I'll be suckered into a game of politics which will escalate into a blood bath between me and the civilian council who will inevitably shove their noses in shinobi business because of Sasuke's first mission." Harry ranted before pulling out a bottle of sake from his pocket and took a long swig from it before continuing. "I know the rule on no drinking in the council room. I would respect that if it was just us and the shinobi. With civilians the chances of this being brief is short and reducing my getting absolutely slaughtered time so forgive me if I start drinking because FUBAR missions require me to get slaughtered."
The Hokage nodded and let Harry down his first bottle of sake. Then Lizard turned up and announced that the shinobi council was ready and the new genin, sensei and elderly kage made their way into the council room.
The council room was magnificent oaken room with a mahogany desk for the Hokage and his two assistants. Then on the left hand side sat the shinobi council and on the right were the civilian council. "STOP DRINKING IN THE COURT ROOM!" Shrieked the Haruno mother, Harry looked at her with a 'serious' look on his face and took an antagonising slug from his sake bottle.
The Haruno fumed madly. "Can we get on with this bullshit?" Asked Harry bluntly this caused a few sniggers in the shinobi section. Finally the Sandaime called the session to order.
"Hatake Kakashi jonin commander of team 7 please stand and tell us your mission rank and what it should have been." Commanded the hokage and Kakashi recounted the entire mission. All the while Harry had fixed Sakura a fierce look that had her petrified even her mother caught on.
"What's wrong sweetie? Is their unfairness towards you? Did that Uzumaki boy do something to you?" Asked her mother, sure enough Sakura opened her mouth and screamed.
"HARRY-SENSEI HAS THE SHARINGAN AND HAS A DEMONIC ARM!" This simple sentence threw the entire room into uproar. Several of the civilian council were shouting about CRA. It wasn't until Harry released his arm and flared his KI that order was returned to the room.
"Thank you, you useless girl...YES I have the sharingan. I DID NOT WANT it broadcasted to the world for I knew how you were going to react. You want to know who my parents were well then my father was Uchiha Fugaku and my mother Hatake Mito...I was born during a FUBAR mission in which my mother and father were in a team. I AM NOT INTO POLYGAMY IF I FIND ANYONE IS GOING TO SET ME UP WITH A WIFE TO GIVE THEM MORE POWER I'LL PAINT THEIR HOMES RED WITHOUT PAINT!" Harry snarled flaring his white lightning and sharingan.
"Kakashi I'll see you later. Sasuke same to you and you can choose where you live or if you want me over at the Uchiha complex. Naruto come with me as we are getting you out of that death sign called clothing and team seven meet me at the raging leaf." Harry growled as he stalked out of the meeting hall.
"THIS MEETING ISN'T OVER!" Screeched the Haruno only to receive the finger, the jonin council smirked and the hokage dismissed everyone. Akimichi Chouza, Nara Shikaku and Yamanka Inoichi looked after the young chunin or tokubetsu jonin. "He has got some style and skill to infuriate one half of the council and appease the other at the same time." Commented the Akimichi causing his two childhood friends to nod in agreement.
The moment Kakashi, Sasuke and Sakura left the meeting hall Kakashi and Sasuke vanished leaving Sakura to walk home alone. What did I do wrong? We are meant to inform the council about any awakening bloodlines but what did I do wrong? Harry-sensei should be grateful that I brought it up. Sakura thought absentmindedly.
Meanwhile in a clothing store Harry sneezed. The baby monkey is probably thinking what she did wrong. Maybe I'll give the team a couple of days off. By this time Naruto had found himself several sets of clothing that resembled Harry's causing Harry to nod in acknowledgement. The shopping trip was an experience for Harry. "That's thirty thousand ryu for all that stuff." The shopkeeper said eyeing Naruto with disgust.
"Naruto go have a look around." Naruto nodded and bounced off. Harry turned to the shopkeeper and growled.
"How much would it be for me to buy that stuff, just because he is with me doesn't mean I'm buying it for him...It's for my half-brother." The shopkeeper gulped and typed in the real price.
"Six thousand ryu for the lot and that's the recommended retail price for all of it." Stammered the shopkeeper causing Harry to smirk demonically. Hook, line and sinker he thought. "How long have you been overcharging him?" The shopkeeper sweated at the amount of KI being released.
"Five years since he was seven...The merchant guild told us to otherwise they would shut us down for being demon lovers. I agree totally with the merchant guild..." SMACK! CRACK! WHAM! Harry launched out with both arms one grabbed the keeper and the other caught him in the nose shattering it. Harry then slammed the man flat onto his shop floor.
"Listen here shit face and listen well, I am going to take whatever money is in the draw for Naruto as well as the clothing. Tell your friends I am going to be calling until you pay up EVERY last ryu you have stolen from him plus interest. Tell anyone or complain you and your family will have an accident." The keeper nodded "Charged him around ¥672000." Harry nodded and helped himself to the till it had ¥19000 which Harry pocketed.
The other stores Harry visited with Naruto had the same consequences and by the end of it Harry had ¥36000 and Naruto had fresh groceries, new equipment and new clothes. "Sensei why did you do that for me? I mean beat the hell out of those shopkeepers."
Harry sat down in a rickety chair and indicated Naruto did the same. "Naruto, I have made mistakes some big and some small. One of the bigger ones was not looking after you as your father and mother wanted me to as I was in coma. I lost twelve years of that. Also you're family to me. I don't mean team seven, I mean I see you as a very annoying younger brother/nephew. I owed your father a lot. Plus just because you are the fox container doesn't mean you're the fox. I'm making a point saying I don't give a fuck about what they say about you and if they mistreat you in any way shape or form I'll deal with them." Harry finished causing Naruto to fling his arms around him.
"Easy their Naruto, now get changed, I'll put the groceries away and we'll meet up with everyone at the raging leaf." Harry explained before creating a few kage Bunshins to clear everything up. Naruto entered the kitchen dressed in black shinobi gear and ANBU class arm protectors. Nodding in approval Harry escorted Naruto out.
The five shinobi met at the raging leaf bar. It was possibly the oldest unmodified building in Konoha and it was the most frequent watering hole for shinobi ranging from genin teams with their sensei's up to jonin. The barman looked up and grinned "Karaoke tonight and first drinks are on me. Kurenai and Asuma's teams are here as well as Gai's.
It turned out to be quite a fun night in Naruto's eyes. He had quickly found out that Harry had done a press gang internship in the ANBU when he had been in is early twenties. He also discovered that Kakashi, Yuugao, Anko, Genma and Raido had protected him when he was younger. Due to his age he couldn't buy sake but he could give the money to his sensei to buy his protectors a drink.
It was nearing midnight when Harry escorted Naruto and Sasuke home. Sakura had left about an hour after she had arrived whilst the other two stayed. Harry dropped Naruto off at his house and escorted Sasuke to the gates of the Uchiha estate before trudging back to the flat he was sharing with Kakashi before falling asleep on the sofa.
