Hey everybody A new chapter!
Thanks for answering my question at a short notice, I hope it wasn't too much of a trouble.
Any way there no question today so you can start the story.
CHAPTER FIVE
"Are you Tazuna's daughter? Sorry but your coming with us." The two ronins started to approach her. Tsunami could only stare with fear in her eyes.
(In the Bathroom)
Inari was washing his hands until he heard his mother scream. He rushed downstairs to see what's going on. When got down he saw the two ronins trying to kidnap her.
"Mom!" Inari yelled.
"What, kid?" The ronin with eye patch growled.
"Don't come! Run away!!!" Tsunami shouted
"Should we take him too?"
"We only need one hostage."
(Hostage?!) Inari thought.
"Then heh heh... Should I kill him?"
"Wait!" Everyone looked at Tsunami. "If you touch that child... I will bite my tongue and bleed to death. You want a hostage right?"
The ronins looked back to Inari. "Heh... Thank your mom kid." One of them spoke.
"Damn... I wanted cut something." The other said.
"Give it a rest. You'll just cut up a bunch of stuff. Let's hurry up and take her." The ronins dragged Tsunami out of the house while Inari was left behind crying.
(Mom... I'm sorry... I'm so sorry... I'm a weak kid so I can't protect you...) Inari continued to cry; he suddenly remembered Naruto's words from last night.
"DON'T ACT LIKE A SPOILED LITTLE SHIT!"
(At this point just like the manga again.)
(They're so incredible. So cool. So strong.) Inari stood up and ran outside after his mother. (Will I, will I be able to be strong, Dad?!!) Inari finally caught up to them.
"Wait!" they all turned around. "Get away from my mom!" Then the little boy ran towards the captors of his mother.
"INARI!!!" His mother screamed.
But the ronins already swung their swords, however target was not what they in mind. They cut up a piece of wood. "Kawairami no Jutsu?!"
"You finally grown up Inari." Inari looked up and saw Naruto.
"Naruto!" Apparently he saved Inari just in time, he also saved his mother who had fainted.
"Good job kid." Then Naruto turned around towards the ronins.
"Well, well if it isn't loser ninja Tazuna hired." Remarked one of the ronins.
"Where are the Gallerian, tell me now?" calmly demanded but also gave a fox glare.
"Why should we tell a punk like you?"
Naruto then took out his nunchucks.
"What this? You going to beat us two sticks tied to a chain? Don't make us laugh!" Then the ronins started laughing at Naruto. The next thing that happen the ronins were tied up and faces were badly bruised up.
"The bridge must under attack, and the Gallerians must be there." Naruto looked at the crying Inari, "Inari, from handle things from here?"
"Yup." Inari replied when wiped his tears away.
"Good, take care Inari." With that Naruto disappeared.
(The Bridge)
Kakashi was already battling Zabuza, Sasuke against Haku while Sakura was the only one who was guarding Tazuna. Gatou's men already showed up, but he decides wait and to see Zabuza will succeed. Zabuza started summoning his mist to execute his ninpou.
The Gatou's men were watching the fight, Gatou was watching also. (Once Zabuza and the Gallerian do all the dirty work; I get rid of them once and for all.)
Behind Gatou's men were the Blood Armored Samurais. The stood there just in case Gatou's men need help. But also waiting for a certain order.
Sasuke was already in ice mirrors while Haku was trying to pin him down. But Sasuke kept dodging his attacks due to his Sharingan.
As for Kakashi and Zabuza they were fighting own battle at the same time they trying to their mission also.
"Genrou Zan!"
Then all of Haku's mirror were cut in half and fell to the ground, luckily Haku manage to get out in time. Everyone was stunned, even Kakashi. Naruto was standing there with his arm crossed.
"Nartuo!" Sakura shouted happily. Naruto nodded at her, then he approached Haku.
"I know it's you. You can take off that mask." Haku stood still, then he took off his mask and revealing his face. "Why are you aiding Gatou?"
"To help someone special to me to achieve his dream." Then Haku charged and started to throw needles at Naruto. Naruto dodge the needles while shurikens back Haku. Haku evaded missile weapons, he then charged Naruto in amazing speed. Naruto had no time to react, the mist nin did couple punches and kick him away couple feet. However when Naruto touched the ground he rolled back got on his feet.
"Not bad. But you'll have to do better then that." Naruto charged at Haku at ready to punch him. Haku got prepared for this.
(His too predictable this should be done within seconds.) Haku thought. But then he felt painful force striking his back. Then it send flying towards Naruto, when he got in range Naruto punched in the face, kicked three times and spun around kicked hard toward back. Haku saw what sent flying, it was another Naruto. Other Naruto kicked high up in the air, then jumped and grabbed him and slammed him on the concrete.
"Wow, that wasn't bad at all." Kakashi commented while Sakura and Tazuna cheered. Sasuke smirked and thought how strong Naruto is. Zabuza couldn't believe his eyes, and stared at disbelief.
(Haku has never been beaten down this bad. This kid, he's no ordinary shinobi.) Zabuza looked around and saw Tazuna was wide open. Then he appeared next to the old man and raised his giant sword. He was ready to bring it down until a kunai hit his left arm. He grunted in pain and turned where the kunai came from.
"Are forgetting our fight?" Kakashi was staring at him with two serous eyes which one of them was sharigan.
Gatou was frustrated that the whole fight started to take too long. He than turned back to his ronins. "Get ready, we going to finish them off for good." Just then one the red samurais came up to Gatou. "Huh, what you doing?! Go kill them!" Gatou shouted.
CHOCK!
Everyone turned to the sickening sound; they saw Gatou flying into the air. The red samurai then sheath his sword. Then he signaled the other samurai to kill Gatou's lackeys. The next thing the clash between the ronins and the samurai's has begun.
When small battle ended some of Gatou's men ran away while rest killed. The samurai's armor glowing blood red, then marched and surrounded remaining people on the bridge.
(Blood Armor Samurais, Hitaro told me about these guys. When ever the kill someone, they're armor glows red, it is a sign that their energies are revitalized and never grow tired. Also the armor gives a boost of strength, which makes them deadly opponents.)
"Which one of is the Valley nin?" One of the samurai's asked in a cold tone.
"What is this? What's going on?" asked the confused Zabuza.
They remained silent to Zabuza's question.
"You in the black with no symbol, you're the valley nin. The one named Uzamaki Naruto, I'm a correct?" When the samurai finished they all stared at Naruto with confusion.
"You guys are from the Gallerians, where is the Black Dragon Blade?"
"You are no position ask us questions. The white sword strapped behind you, it's the White Dragon Blade isn't. Hand it over to us and no one will be harmed."
"No, I would rather die than give it willingly."
"Hmph, you valley nins are the same. Rather die then submitting to us, that's right we rather kill you all." Then the samurai signaled everyone to attack them. All of the samurais charged, glowing armor made the look like fireballs running flying towards their target.
"Kakashi!" The gray haired shinobi turned to the mist shinobi. "It looks like we don't have to fight you anymore, how about we team up to take these bastards on?"
Kakashi nodded, "Agreed a temporally truce."
Sasuke, Haku and Sakrua threw their kunais and needles at that, but they bounced of the armor.
Kakashi and Zabuza tried attacking them close. Zabuza took the kunai out of his arm and charged at the enemy. But when the kunai hit the armor, it had to effect. Kakashi also had the same results, their was strong to protect enough to take a regular sword blow.
"How are suppose to beat them if the armor is protecting them." Asked Sakura in a nervous state.
"Everyone listen to me! The armor makes them strong that they never get tired." Shouted Naruto avoiding two samurai's attack.
"How do we beat them?" asked Haku while another swung his sword at him.
"Haku and Sakura, aim your weapons at their parts that are open." Both of them understood and started to aim at the openings. This time two went down. "Sasuke use your Goukakyuu no Jutsu on them."
"Right" Saauke responded and did so. When three samurai's got close enough he performed seals and burned them into crisp.
"Zabuza your sword and high level skills should take them out." Zabuza nodded and sliced two men in half.
"Kakashi!"
"No need I know enough to take them!" When one samurai attacked him Kakasji got behind him and silt his throat.
Naruto picked up a sword from two dead samurais. One red villain came from behind but Naruto spun around stabbed trough an opening and finished him off with a cut to his neck. Then another one came but Naruto kicked his facemask causing the enemies stumble back. Then Naruto slice him down with the sword. Then two more try to stike him. Naruto started forming seals then he shouted, "Rokusai no Jutsu" Naruto rushed the enemy while a light blue flare surrounded him and shaped as a whilwind. The two samurai's were on blue fire.
Kakashi saw that jutsu, but didn't know what it was. Then Kakashi started use his Raikiri on another group of samurais ending they're life instantly. (Those skills, the Genrou Zan, and the Rokusai no Jutsu. I heard of them somewhere, but where.) Then Kakashi snaped back to reality and defende himself form another samurai.
Sasuke saw that jutsu also, (Naruto is really strong, where does he get that strength.) Sasuke blew fireballs at a row of samurais; they burned as they fall down to their end.
Haku and Sakura were also holding them off and protecting Tazuna. A samurai was about to slice Sakura behind but the old man smack him with a sake bottle. The samurai felled back knocked out. Sakura turned around; Tazuna smiled at her and gave thumbs up. Then another snuck up but this time the target was bridge builder, Haku kicked the samurai away. Then he turned smiled at the other people. They smiled back.
Zabuza was handling the enemies nicely, in fact he just swung sword around cutting anyone got near it. Eventually the samurai's numbers soon dwindle down to couple left. Some of them started running away. The rest stood there ground. But they soon met the fate.
After hard battle the ninjas and the brigde builder finally caught their breath. It didn't last long although.
"So you're the one who defeated Yako." A gruff voice spoke behind them.
They all turned and saw giant man who is about eight feet big. He wore metal padding all over his body and shoulders. He wore dark brown pants and a metal mushroom shape hat. He held a great big war club, which is resting on his shoulders. His eyes are covered by visor.
"Who are you?" Sasuke asked
"Kertall, one of Metal Prophet loyal servant." Then tall man turned to Naruto. "I have to say, I met a lot of skilled fighters but I had never met a fighter so young."
"You have doubts in me?" Naruto raised his eyes.
"Lets just say your out of my league kid, now give me the sword."
"Humph." Naruto got into his fighting stance.
"So you choose to fight me, alright we'll so the hard way." The giant lifted his club.
"Kage no Bushin!" Naruto charged at him with five clones behind him. Followed behind Kakashi and Zabuza. All of the Narutos charged at them, then Kertall swung his mighty club knocking three of the Narutos. One of them was the real one, and the rest attacked but were brought down by the club also.
Zabuza tried his Water Prison Skill on the metal giant. The water covered him up, making him trapped, then Kakashi used his Raikiri once again. When he used it he aimed it to the water it created electric shockwave towards the giant within. When the water fell down the giant stood still.
"Did we get him?" asked Kakashi.
Then the Kertall looked and his visor is glowing red. "Thank you for all the juice you gave me. Now let me repay you with something special." Then six metal rods popped up on his helmet, the six rods formed up in a ball of electricity.
"I don't believe this! That attack should of took him down!" Kakashi shouted with disbelief.
"What is he?! A demon?!" Zabuza yelled.
The rods soon formed a sphere of electricity, sounds of charging up made Sakura and Haku worried. Then stream of high voltage electricity was fired at Kakashi and Zabuza. The shock did not hit but the force of wind send them flying away. Kakashi hit the concrete ground while Zabuza slammed into a wall, knocking him out.
"Zabuza!" "Kakashi!" Both Haku and Sakura shouted. Then they both charged at the metal giant, Sakura threw a set of kunais while Haku did his Makyou Hyoushou. The kunais and needles bounced off the metal giant.
"Do you really think a couple of ice is going to stop me?"
"Then how about this!" Haku started using his water fist skill, all the mirrors reflection were attack Kertall. Kertall was smashing all the mirrors with his club but a new one would appear.
"He got him!" Sakura cheered.
"Not bad, for a little punk. How about taste of my heat seeking rocket." Then Kertall opened his mouth wide; a rocket flew out and sped towards one of the mirrors and exploding. Haku flew out of the explosion.
Sakura ran towards Haku to check if he is all right, while Sasuke rushed at the metal fiend.
"Ryuuka no Jutsu" Then Sasuke created a powerful stream of fire towards the Kretall. The jutsu hit the target while exploding into flame. "That should take care of him." Then a steel club smacked the raven hair boy across the bridge. Sasuke could barely stand up; his knee is shaking violently while blood flowed out of his mouth. "But... How could you survive that blast?"
"Thanks to McCain's enhancement I am heat resistant, your ninjustu or whatever ninjas do, will not have an effect me. I was able locate that boy back there using my targeting system."
"Well then, can you target this?" then Kakashi summoned his dogs to hold down the Gallerian giant.
"Thanks Kakashi I'll take from here!" Then Naruto used his Rokusai no Jutsu, then sped towards the opponent. The whirlwind of blue flare engulfed Kertall, and then spat him out of it sending him flying through like giant blue fireball. "Can your enhancement protect you from that?!" spat Naruto.
"Ha, ha, ha, you guys finally got him!" laughed Tazuna. Sakura was helping Haku to stand up; they were both smiling while Sasuke lurched for support, which they gave him. He smirked, as Zabuza used his giant sword as a support his face stood emotionless. Kakashi was smiling beneath his mask. As for Naruto, he slowly approaches the still body of Kertall. He looked at his face, visor was black, suddenly it turned bright red. Before Naruto act the giant grabbed and started smashing him to the ground. Then he hurled him into the air, he fell flat to the ground.
"Naruto!" Kakashi, and Sakura yelled, while the rest couldn't believe what they are seeing.
"He took a direct hit! What is he?!" Haku shouted.
"It has been a while that somebody did some damage to me, but the game ends here!" roared Kertall.
Tazuna ran to Naruto, "Hey kid! Are you alright?"
"Ahhh, yeah, just a few broken ribs."
"Kakashi I have little chakra left." Zabuza said with tint concern.
"Me too and I don't think it's enough to beat this guy." Kakashi replied
"Battling against the mist and those samurais took a lot out of us." Sasuke grimly stated.
Kertall started to send rockets in every direction while he is zapping everything with his electric rods. Sakura, Haku, and Sasuke barely dodge high voltage beam, the debris flew everywhere making clouds of dust. Zabuza and Kakashi were to busy trying to avoid the rocket coming at them.
"He's gone berserk!" Haku shouted.
We have to do something before he completely destroys the bridge." Sasuke grunted.
"But how?" Sakura said with hint of fear.
Tazuna looked at the metal giant going on a rampage, while destroying the bridge as well. He was about to lose hope until Naruto got his attention. "Tazuna, help me take of my mask." Tazuna immediately did it; finally the blond nin was showing his face toward everyone. He face was covered in blood, it worse then Sasukes face. Then he took off the white sword that was straped on his back.
Naruto Pov
I have to use it. I don't have enough chakra to take on that guy. If I stop him now then he destroy everything in town. Also this bridge is the key to this country's hope. I will not let the Gallerians destroy another village for their selfish needs!
I took out the sword, but the minute I did, immense pressure of power flowed out violently. I almost dropped the sword, due to shock of the power. I notice the ground started to crack up a bit. I soon started to feel pain all over my body, so this is the power of the White Dragon Blade.
Kertall notice surge of energy and turned around towards me. "Stupid brat! The Dragon Blade is too much for you to handle. The power will kill you within seconds, but I'll do your favor and end suffering now!" The colossus metal freak shouted, he then shot his electric beam at me. I used swords power and blocked the beam with it. That bastard had face that made him surprised and push more power to the beam. But no matter what he does the results stayed the same. Then his exploded and smoke started rise up. The beam died down making him open for a charge.
"Naruto this is your chance!" Kakashi yelled.
I ran towards him like there is no tomorrow, he fired a few of his rockets. But I dodged them without a sweat.
"YOUR NOT GONNA BEAT ME YOU LITTLE PUNK!!!!!" Then he raised his steel club ready to pummel me with it again. When I got in range he swung hard as he can, but I brought dragon sword down to the club shattering into small pieces.
"WHAT?!!! THIS CAN"T BE HAPPENING!" He shouted.
I jumped towards him and raising the sword behind me. "End of the line Kertall..." after I said that Ketall soon had the face of a scared man. I brought the sword down, which cut through his metal puddings like butter to a knife.
"AAAARRRRRGGGGGHHHHH!!!!" The behemoth was finally defeated. He stumbled back to the edge of the bridge, then fell off and plummet to water.
I quickly put away the blade before it drain any more of my energy.
End of Naruto Pov.
Naruto has fallen back, he sitting down. Then Kakashi came to give him a hand, which accept without a hesitant then rest of the group came. But their celebration has ended when they all heard metal clapping from a distants.
"Very good boy, very good." The Metal Prophet was approaching them along with McCain and remaining blood samurais.
"Not only you defeated the Yako, but you Kertall as well." The Naruto was glaring at the Metal Prophet, while team seven and the bridge builder was confused what's going on. Zabuza and Haku was staring at him.
"I am starting think that not all valley nins are pathetic. I am in a hurry so please just hand me White Dragon Blade and I shall put this past behind."
"Shut up! You came to village and killed many of my people! You stole Black Dragon Blade from us, and most of all you caused pain to the Grass and Wave country! You think I am just gonna give you the blade!"
"If you insist that I use force, then I will." Then Metal Prophet took off his cloak, which revealed him wearing golden samurai armor with the rim designs all black. He still has that iron mask on with a golden samurai helmet. To his right side the Black Dragon Blade was latched on his belt. It is the same as the opposite blade except it was black and the dragon design is white. He took out the sword which gave away same surge of power, except he handle it well
"Now show me what you got boy."
Naruto charged out with his sword, he drew it and swung it hard the golden samurai. His enemy deflected that blade pushed blond nin back. "It's Naruto! And remember that name!" Then he charged again but this time the Metal Prophet charged to and made a quick blow on the shinobi. Naruto fell down bleeding very badly.
"NARUTO!" Sakura shrieked. Zabuza took his Kubikiri Houchou and charged the Metal Prophet with all his remaining strength. But the Metal Prophet saw him coming an immediately turn to him. When their sword clashed, Zabuza's blade broke by the power of the Black Dragon Blade. Then the Metal Prophet stabbed him through his critical area with sword, then he pushed him off with his feet.
"ZABUZA!!!" Haku desperately tried get to his master but Kakashi held him back.
"It is a shame Zabuza, I had no reason fight you yet come after me."
"Shut up!... You think your better anyone! Ha, ha, ha, I seen people like you, people like you are the worst of the kind. It makes me sick to work with you! You... you worse than Gatou!" With that quote Zabuza received a kick from McCain.
"Be Quiet! How dare you speak to him like that?!"
"That's right, be his lapdog!" Zabuza shouted at McCain. McCain was about to beat to death until the Metal Prophet stopped him.
"That's enough McCain. We came here for the other sword, not to create more bloodshed."
"Yes sir." Then he backed off.
Then the Metal Prophet came close Naruto's body. "Now to get the other sword." He reached for the sword Naruto was holding, but the body rolled over and threw a kunai at the prophet. This golden warrior off guard which the kunai dented his mask. Then the Naruto charged at him, but the prophet kick him away.
"It has been a long time since someone has laid an attack on me." The Metal Prophet touched the dent on mask. "Very well boy, you may hold the blade longer, till I come back to get to it." Then he signaled everyone to leave, they got on a boat, but before they left he shouted one last thing Nartuo. "My name Zatsyua and remember it till our next encounter." Then they rowed off.
Haku ran to Zabuza, "Zabuza hang on I fix this wound for you." But he stopped Haku.
"It's too late for me, even your had something, my internal organs has been severely damaged. Not only that I lost heavy amount of blood."
"What are you saying you can't die yet?! What about our dream?!"
"Zabuza smiled don't worry, you just live in your life..." Then Zabuza died. Haku tried to call his name louder and shake him but it was no use. Then Haku broke down crying, while everyone looked at them sadly, except Sasuke with emotionless face.
Then everything went black on Naruto.
(Five days later)
Naruto woke up, he looked around and saw he was in a bed. Then he realized that he was back at Tsunmai's house. His wounds were bandage, and his stuff was neatly put against the wall. Then Inari came in, when he saw Naruto his eyes started to water.
"Naruto!" The young boy jumped on him.
"Hey easy Inari!"
"Mom! Grandpa! Naruto is awake!" With instant Tsunami and Tazuna rushed in, they jumped on Naruto with a group hug.
"Your alive kid! We thought your not gonna make it!"
"Don't ever scare us like that!"
Then team seven came in, Sakura joined the group hug also while Kakashi and Sasuke smiled.
"Okay everyone I'm glad your happy to see me alive, but your squeezing, seriously"
When everyone broke up, Kakashi spoke to Naruto.
"Glad to see you alive Naruto." Then Kakashi's lazy eye became serious, "But now you have a lot of explaining to do, and don't try squeeze your way out."
Naruto nodded knowing he can't avoid this. He started to everyone the truth, who he really is, who are the Gallerins, and the White Dragon Blade. When he was done talking, everyone was awed by his adventures that it made the room silent.
Then Kakashi spoke up, "So your trying to retrieve the sword from Gallerians hands, while your village is trying to seek a safe place."
"Yes, I must bring back at all cost." Naruto reply, "But now I have no leads where the Gallerians are now, so I must return to Hidden Valley." Then a hawk flew in the house, Naruto beckon one of the people search his bag for food. Sasuke got it gave it Naruto, which he gave the hawk some food. Then he took the message and read it.
"What does it say?" Sasuke asked.
"It says to go Hidden Leaf since the there a no information of the Gallerian movement. Hitaro also said that I should learn about the place I was born in."
"What are going to do?" asked Sakura.
"I'm going to do what he said, there is no point to wander around for the Gallerian."
"Then you can come back with us." Kakashi said. "Were going back to Konoha since the mission is over."
"Then I will." Naruto nodded.
(Later on)
Haku was standing before Zabuza's grave, making his last prayer towards him.
"Are going now?" Haku asked. Naruto was behind him along with team seven.
"Yeah, I'm off to the fire country. Where are you headed?" Naruto asked. Then Haku turned around faced them.
"Take me with you."
Naruto looked at him, then he spoke. "Why?"
"Because, I need to make the Gallerians pay for what they did." Haku responded sadly.
"Haku, seeking vengeance is not going to ease your pain."
"I know, it's not for me, but for Zabuza, they humiliated him in the past. I can't let go for this." Haku looked up.
"Very well Haku you can come with me if you like, it's not my business to tell you what to do. But yours see if this is the right way."
Haku looked up, stared at him for a moment. Then smiled, "Thank you Naruto."
(The Bridge)
"Thanks to you we completed the bridge, but... This is super sad. "Tazuna said.
"Thank you for everything." Kakashi responded.
"I am pretty sure our path will cross again." Naruto responded.
"I wish you didn't have to go." Inari said sadly while trying not cry.
"I couldn't stay longer even I wanted too, but I am glad to meet Inari."
"I'm glad to meet you to Naruto." Inari responded.
"Naruto thank you for everything, I hope you come back again."
"I do too."
Then they waved goodbye and left.
"The boy changed Inari's heart, and Inari change the people's heart. That boy gave us a bridge to hope, called courage."
"Bridge... Oh yeah we need to name this bridge."
"Well I have a super perfect name for this bridge..."
"Oh! What is it?"
"How about the great Naruto Bridge?"
"He, he... That's a good name."
(Back to Team Seven)
"Sasuke how about a date when we get back?" asked the cheerful Sakura
"No thanks?" replied the cold Sasuke.
"Bu-But..." as Sakura tries to convince him to change his mind, Haku and Naruto laughed while Kakashi shrugged.
(Konoha, perhaps I'll learn something, cause I have a long ways to go.) Thought Naruto.
END OF CHAPTER FIVEWell a lot of you people wanted Haku too live so I let him live.
Next Chapter is when Naruto is back at Konoha.
