Chapter 6 "Little Brother"
"Now about this boy, Mind reading jutsu" Naruto touched the boy and said.
After sometime Naruto regained consciousness. "Hmmm, I think that I would have to do the Memory Altering jutsu."
"What jutsu?" Kakashi asked.
"Oh, I invented this jutsu last year with the help of gramps. This allows me to rewrite the memories of the individual according to my will." Naruto answered.
"And the Yamanaka clan knows about it?"
"No, we are still testing it and beside I have no intention of sharing this and even with a sharingan no one can copy this as this requires to have a special seal on the individual which can only be done by us." Naruto said while looking at Kakashi.
"Why do you need to use this?" Sasuke asked.
"You see, the name this boy is Haku Yuki, the last member of the Yuki clan and he has the Ice release Kekkei Genkai. But his clan was so much hated and feared by everyone in the land of waves that they slaughtered all the members of his clan. Same fate as my clan! But somehow his mother managed to escape the slaughter and married a farmer. There she gave birth to him. But it was not too long before his father found out about his Kekkei Genkai. And to his badluck, his father was also one of the people who feared and hated Kekkei Genkai. He was only 5 when his so-called father gathered some people and murdered his mother which scared him so much that he lost controls over his powers and killed all the murderers of his mother including his father. But the poor child had nowhere to live, he was forced to eat from garbage and live on the streets. But then he met Zabuza who acknowledged him and let him live with him. Although is was only for his personal benefits, this boy admired him so much that he was ready to give his life for the sake of Zabuza."
Naruto took a deep breath "And that is why I will erase all his memories of Zabuza, so that he doesn't have to live with sorrow of losing someone precious to him."
"But to do this, I will have to remove my resistance seal" Naruto then started to remove the clothes of his upper body showing off his upper body, which made Sakura turn red.
"Don't you have any manners; how can you remove your clothes in front of everyone?" Sakura yelled at Naruto.
"Oh, I forgot that you are also here. And besides, I am not naked." Naruto said and others nodded to agree with him.
"What do you mean, you forgot?"
"It is because you were not of any use, all this time you were just holding a kunai in a wrong way."
"Cut it off both of you." Kakashi said.
"Yeah, I have more important things to do, Sasuke could you remove the seal on my back." Naruto asked.
"Yeah, sure thing" Sasuke then removed the real on Naruto's back.
"Whoa, I don't even feel the gravity and my movements have become way faster than before." Naruto announced.
"Let's do it" Naruto then took scroll from his tool bag and opened it. Then he wrote a seal on the scroll and placed his hand on the middle of the seal. The seal was transferred to Naruto's hands.
He then lifted the cloth on the back of Haku and slammed his hand on his back and the seal was printed on Haku's back.
"You guys can rest; this is going to take some time." Naruto said.
"How much time?" Sakura asked.
"About half an hour."
"What, can't you do that faster?"
"What do you think, rewriting 3 years of someone's life is an easy task. Why don't you do it then?"
"Sakura, let Naruto do what he is doing" Kakashi said.
"Shadow clone jutsu" 10 clones of Naruto popped beside him. "Two of you stay here and rest of you guard this place." The clones did as ordered. "Now you two, hold this boy tightly."
Naruto then made some hand signs and he placed his hand on the seal and closed his eyes.
Half an hour later
The seal suddenly disappeared from Haku's back. Naruto opened his eyes and dispelled the shadow clone jutsu.
"So, what did you do" Kakashi asked.
"I thought that this boy will be safer in Hidden leaf than here. So, I rewrote his memory and when he met Zabuza he met me. And from there I took him to Hidden Leaf and now he lives with me. He thinks of me as his big brother.
"So does that mean you will take care of him?" Sasuke asked.
"Yes, I cannot let him die here like his clan and beside he will accompany me as my little brother."
"That is so noble of you, but do you think that lord hokage will agree with this." Kakashi asked.
"He will, if he doesn't want to lose the 9 tails jinchuriki and the last members of Yuki clan." Naruto replied.
After some time, the boy regained consciousness "What is going on, big brother?" Haku asked Naruto. This shocked rest of his team members.
"Oh nothing, we were on a mission and that guy tried to attack you and managed to knock you out." Naruto said while pointing to Zabuza's corpse.
"Anyway, lets finish our mission and return home."
"Ok, big brother" Haku replied.
"Hey Kakashi sensei, I will collect the bounty so, why don't you make a shadow clone to show me the direction of the collection office." Naruto asked kakashi.
"Alright, here you go" Kakashi made a shadow clone to guide Naruto.
"What should I do with this sword of his" Naruto asked.
"I think I will keep it; it seems to be useful in kenjutsu training" Naruto announced and then he sealed the sword on the palm of his right hand.
"What, you can seal weapons in your hand?" Sakura asked.
"Yes. you can, but it requires some training." Naruto answered.
"Hey Haku, you go with Sasuke, I will come after I complete some business." Naruto said to Haku.
"Ok, Big Brother" Haku replied.
Then Naruto and the clone of Kakashi carrying the corpse of Zabuza went for the collection office and the real kakashi, Haku, Sakura, Sasuke and Tazuna left for Tazuna's home.
With Naruto and Kakashi Clone
They stopped in front of a bar. Naruto said "Why are we standing in front of this Bar. I thought I asked you to show me the way of a collection office."
"This is the collection office, now stop questioning and follow me." Kakashi said while holding Zabuza's corpse. Kakashi then went inside the room behind the bar and pulled a chain which revealed another secret door. Kakashi then removed his headband and asked Naruto to do the same. Then they knocked the door and person opened the door. Then they entered the room. There was a counter in the corner and person was behind the counter. There were 2 more people standing beside the gate. The sides of the room were completely covered with lockers.
"Welcome sir. Lay it here." A man said as he pointed at an empty locker.
Kakashi then put Zabuza's corpse on the locker. The man then opened a booklet and matched the information with Zabuza's corpse.
"He is Zabuza Momochi and has a bounty of 1 million Ryo for his corpse." The man said and then went to the counter where another man gave him a suitcase. The man than handed the suitcase to Kakashi. Kakashi then opened the suitcase and found if filled with notes. Kakashi then closed the suitcase and handed it to Naruto. Then they went outside of the room.
"So, you got your money. Now come to Tazuna's home quickly." Kakashi said and he disappeared in smoke.
"Okay, I will." Naruto said as he sealed the suitcase in a scroll and went to Tazuna's house.
Author's Note
Now, Haku will live with Naruto as his younger brother. I halved the age of Haku as in this story his 8 and in the anime/manga he was around 15. I just wanted to give Naruto a companion who will live with him all the time, and I thought Haku will be a better option than any other character. And Naruto is not a homo, so don't think that Naruto picked Haku for some lewd reasons. And his appearance will be changed after the end of this arc.
And as for the bounty part, I wanted Naruto to live in a proper house than living in a orphanage. And he will do these things too because he is a ninja not an angel. This chapter was meant to be an introduction chapter.
