Chapter 5: In the waves

( Wave)

Naruto, Cassandra, Bela, and Daniela are in the village of waves all wearing their hoods so no one wouldn't see their identities. They came here in search of one of his grandfather's lost facilities

But as he came here he noticed that this village doesn't appear to be happy and he wondered why?

It's people were sad, and are waiting for hope to come to brighten their moods.

He frowned under his hood looking at the people and wondered what seems the cause of this?

"Something wrong Naruto?" asked bela who noticed his frown under his hood.

"The town's people doesn't seem all that happy for some reason. We may have to investigate the cause of this." He says

"What would you have us do?" asked Daniela this time

"As I said let's find out what we can." Naruto replied as they walked further and went into a bar to try and learn some information.

The four took their seats at the bar and looked around as the bartender came.

"Hello. You four must be new around here, what can I get you?" He asked

"We all want red wine, if you please" Naruto says as he paid for the drinks with the bartender giving them their red wine as all four took a sip.

"So tell me good sir. Why is your village not happy?" Naruto asked with the bartender looking both ways making sure none of Gato's thugs were here listening.

"We aren't happy because a Tyrant businessman took over our village, The businessman's name is Gato. Head of Gato Corporation, he's hired plenty of thugs and samurai to join him, he even had our own Daimyo overthrown and killed by his own Samurai. Ever since then he has been taking money from us, we tried to stand up to him but we couldn't after he publicly executed Kaiza the husband of Tsunami who lives at Tazuna's house, Tazuna is a bridge builder." the bartender told Naruto who listened to the story

"Interesting. Do tell me about this Tazuna. I happen to see his bridge when I arrived." He says as the man went on and told him

Naruto frowned after hearing the bartender's tale that Tazuna is hiring Konoha Shinobi for protection.

The former home that he has not heard of for a very long time during his stay at Dimitresu Castle.

He wondered what Shinobi team will he encounter.

"Why thank you for the interesting tale. Good day." Naruto says as he and the girls decided to leave.

Only they failed to notice a Thug of Gato was in the corner of the bar glaring at the four hooded individuals and decided to follow them.

Half hour later the four found themselves a safe house to stay in for the time being.

Naruto would sit on his chair thinking of how to get around this. Though he was interested in seeing what Gato's business is like and maybe could take the short man's business from him and mold it into his own corporation.

His thoughts were interrupted when Cassandra and Bela walked in holding the thug that was in the bar following them.

"He was following us, we caught him snooping around the bushes." Cassandra says holding her kama at the man's neck who was sweating with fear as he noticed the sadistic looks the daughters were giving him, also looks of Hunger on their faces.

"I hope you know that it's rude to follow someone." Naruto said in a calm cool voice

"It's quite obvious who you work for." Naruto says reaching into his trench coat and pulled out his Samurai edge handgun and aims it at the thug's face who's sweat increased as he started to shiver.

"You are going to tell me everything that I don't know or I'm going to blow your head off." Naruto says with intimidation.

The thug squealed as he mouthed off about everything of what Gato does in his business and that the short man hired a missing-nin to deal with the bridge builder including his escort of Konoha Shinobi.

"I've told you everything please let me go!" the thug pleaded.

"I'm afraid I can not do that." Naruto replied

"Why? I won't tell Gato a thing about you! Please honest!" He cried begging for his life to not die.

"Girls. He's all yours." He said as they giggled sadistically as he was being taken away screaming in protest

"Mmmm man blood!" Moaned Cassandra as the three daughters began devouring the thug drinking his blood with his screams being heard.

Now Naruto would plan on where to find this facility his grandfather has. While also thinking how to get around the Konoha Shinobi.

He will have to call Mr. X to stand guard at their current location.

Later on Naruto had left the safe house in the middle of the night. The sisters would be all sleep while Mr. X is guarding the safehouse and has been instructed to kill any stranger that comes near.

Naruto wasn't alone though he had a pack of Cerberus hounds with him. While holding his Samurai Edge.

( with Team 7)

At Tazuna's house where his escorts the Konoha shinobi team 7 are protecting him. They managed to fend off Zabuza but realized that Zabuza isn't dead. So Kakashi has sent his dog summons to give a message to the sandaime in needing backup.

The Rookie and last Uchiha, Sasuke is currently training in the middle of the night. Hoping Hatake gives him new skills and moves so that he could be stronger to avenge his clan and kill his older brother.

Then there is a pink haired girl with a large forehead and green eyes named Sakura Haruno who the kunoichi of the year due to her bookmarks. And is also a fan girl to one Sasuke Uchiha.

And the last member of the team is Sai, a pale boy and is secretly a Root Agent working for Danzo. And to keep an eye on the Uchiha in hopes of getting the boy to join his Root someday.

This team is guarding the bridge builder. Yet there are not aware of what awaits them soon.

(With Naruto)

He went deeper into the forest and that he had his flashlight on. Still flanked by his Cerberus hound pack while holding his gun.

Once he went a few more paces he encountered an Abandoned bunker.

What was a bunker doing here? Could it be that he found it?

He went inside with his dogs following him.

He spotted an elevator and went inside going down a few levels down. Once he made it to bottom with the doors opening.

He found one of the labs. He smiled as he shut the power on this abandoned lab.

Before he could go any further he heard hissing and his Cerberus hounds growled and looked up and when he looked up he spotted a giant Licker that hissed loudly as it looked at Naruto who had a deadpan expression.

"Seems like grandfather wasn't taking any chances in letting anyone come into his abandoned lab and try to steal his work." Naruto says aiming his gun at the giant licker that looked ready to attack Naruto and his pack of Cerberus hounds.
