Ena sat up with a gasp only to immediately regret it, he grabbed his chest pain coursing through his body. He stood up from the bed and waked to a nearby mirror his chest was covered in bloody bandages the wound it covered ached and he grabbed his chest wincing in pain. He was confused for a moment when he remembered the fight and what happened "System explain now!" he growled in his head

Ena Grunted that was going to be an issue even if it wasn't a major one, groaning in annoyance he sighed, the game was never going to let this go, he rolled his eyes and stood up, he looked at a nearby mirror taking in his appearance. His shirt was gone replaced with bandages that had a small amount of dried blood on them he winced slightly when he touched his chest, sighing to himself he walked towards the door but then paused he should probably start allocating stat points he opened his stat screen and what he saw confused him.

Ena hummed that was new he'd never gotten a… racial skill before this was new territory. He opened the door and made his way down the stairs of the unknown location he was in he stopped at the foot of his stairs closed his eyes and focused his hearing. He could hear voices of his team, Tazuna and an unknown woman as well as, Albedo? He raised a single brow what was she doing here, he shook his head and made his way into the small kitchen he saw Sasuke and Sakura sitting at a table along with Kakashi who had crutches, and albedo who was washing dishes beside the unknown woman Albedo notice him and squealed in joy and suddenly dashed forward and embraced him. Ena froze for a second and looked at Albedo in confusion he knew her affection as at 100 but he didn't expect that in fact how the hell did she get here. Kakashi answered the question before Ena got a chance to ask it.
"She arrived just after you collapsed came flying in with those wings of hers didn't say a thing but she looked terrified, started freaking out and asking what happened we told her and she demanded to come with us."
Ena raised a brow "And you said yes?" Kakashi released a deep sigh "I was too weak to do anything and we needed as much help as possible with Zabuza and his accomplice." Ena nodded Albedo still hadn't let go he gently placed his hands on her shoulders and pushed her away he could see the tears falling down her face. He gave her a soft smile "Albedo I'm fine." She nodded still sobbing Ena patted her in the shoulder then looked at Kakashi "So what's the plan?" Sakura looked at him confusion in his eyes "What do you mean?" Ena answered quickly "You know about Zabuza." Kakashi sighed he knew this would come up "We have to take care of Zabuza." Sakura looked confused that didn't make sense.
"But sensei we've completed the mission there's no need to stay." Sakura stated with Sasuke humming in agreement Ena shook his head in reply "We need to stop Zabuza because if we don't Tazuna will still be in danger."
"Our mission as to escort Tazuna to wave not protect him when he got there." Sasuke said with a slight glare
"So, we should just leave him to die even if we can stop it!"
"It's not our problem!"
"and why not!" Ena questioned.
"BECAUSE YOU NEARLY DIED AND IT'S HIS FAULT." he shouted. "If we didnt halve to protect him I could have helped you!" Sasuke continued in reply anger brimming in his voice Ena growled at him he understood Sasuke's anger if, he or Sakura had gotten as hurt as he did, he would've been pissed to but they couldn't just abandon Tazuna or the land of waves.
As he was about to explain his reasoning Ena was interrupted by Kakashi "That's enough you two, how about we put it to a vote, who wants to stay and help Tazuna and his family," Ena raised his hand the only one in his team he glared at Sasuke and Sakura when Kakashi said "and who wants to go back to the village," predictably Sasuke and Sakura raised the hands and Ena quietly seethed Kakashi clapped his hands "Well it seems that it has been decided we are going back to Konoha." Tazuna looked shocked when Kakashi turned to him "I'm sorry Tazuna but the safety of my genin come first I hope you and your family stay safe and I am sorry, come on team pack your bags were going." Kakashi, Sakura and Sasuke stood up and began to grab their gear Tazuna and his family looked in shock they couldn't believe it the people they hired to help were abandoning them. Albedo had a look of indifferent it didn't matter as long as her master was safe, she glanced at said master who stared at Kakashi's back and said one word "No."
The other members of team 7 froze that was unexpected through the month Ena had been aggregable with Kakashi listening to the jonin's orders. He never said no to a direct order. Kakashi looked at him "Ena we can't stay it was a team decision and I won't allow you to be hurt." Ena's glare hardened and after a moment he growled out his reply "I will not leave these people to die Kakashi, Konoha be damned."
Kakashi sighed "Ena don't be like that Konoha needs you I'll try and get lord Hokage to get a mission but right now we can't do anything."
"That's the problem Kakashi you'll try to get him to make a mission but even if you do succeed wave dosen't have enoughp time. So here's my ultimatum either you help me with wave or i leave to find somone else to help!"
Kakashi's single eye widened he couldn't mean! "Ena… you're not saying- "
"Yes I am saying it. you and I both know any other village would love to have me considering what I am especially Kumo and Iwa. And sage knows either faction in Kiri would love to have me to tip the balance in their favor. So here's your choice you stay and help me or leave and I go rouge!" that made Kakashi's eye widened "Ena you... can't be serious." By the sage he hoped he wasn't, the village couldn't lose Ena, he was far too valuable the third Hokage would most likely use all of Konoha's might to retrieve him and if he went to a different village it could cause a war they had started for less but a jinchuriki... and the nine tails at that Kakashi couldn't afford to let that happen. Sighing to himself he made up his mind, turning to Sasuke and Sakura he gave them his order "Team we're staying." The two genin looked in shock
"B-but Kakashi-sensei our mission is over we don't need to stay and Ena might need to go to the hospital." Sakura said confusion and worry in her voice, Ena replied instead of Kakashi "doesn't matter these people need help and I don't need a hospital I'll heal quick enough, besides there's more important things to talk about like what is the issue with the land of Waves." Team 7 looked at Tazuna for an answer and he hastily gave it. "Gato is in control of wave and he's taking all our ryo it's why we were paying so little I swear!" Kakashi interrupted him "Wait, Wait Gato the Gato of the Gato corporation!" Sakura and Sasuke looked confused which Kakashi noticed and explained "Gato is a shipping magnate and is also one of the biggest crime lords in the nations. He does it all dealing, smuggling, human trafficking all of it he owns hundreds of brothels and shipyards and has had hundreds maybe thousands of people killed." Looking at Tazuna he asked the obvious "but why Wave, no offence but there doesn't seem to be much here and he definitely doesn't need the ryo so why?"
"It's because wave is the only country that know how to manufacture gunpowder, flintlock pistols and bullets, that makes them invaluable to any village especially a crime lord." Ena interjected Sakura looked confused while Sasuke looked shocked.
"Your joking right." The last Uchiha said Sakura looked at the two young shinobi "What are these flintlock pistols wave can make, what's so special about them?"
Kakashi spoke up "A flintlock is powerful weapon it fires a bullet faster than most jonin can throw a kunai and it's difficult to avoid because of the size and even better it's strong enough to put a hole in your body, faster and more precise than a kunai and hits with the force of an explosive tag, match made in the pure lands for any shinobi looking for an edge."
"But the cons outweigh the pro's, it could misfire, it takes too long to reload and you only get one shot, it was popular during the third war but most shinobi don't see the point in them anyway, too loud, too noticeable. there hard to come by, which is why they sell a shit-ton in the black markets." Ena said his team and Tazuna looking in shock "How do you know all this?" Sakura ask, Ena suddenly had an odd look in his eyes like he remembered something he didn't want to. He hesitated before finally answering "I-It's hard to explain it doesn't matter, what matters is Gato and how we deal with him, that's what we need to focus on right now."
Sasuke Narrowed his eyes Ena was hiding something again and by the look in Kakashi's single eye he knew what it was, Ena was right though it didn't matter right now he would find out later "So what's the plan then?" Kakashi answered "This isn't the first time a shinobi from Konoha has dealt with a crime lord but it will be the first time going against one this big, Gato has a piece of almost every major crime from hitmen to brothels and even information broking so he can't be doing it by himself from what Konoha has gathered over the years is that Gato has four major sources of income apart from his company. Drugs, assassination, information brokering and brothels. Those are what we have to destroy to get a clear shot at Gato and save wave, simple right." Ena sighed.
"Not really we know Gato can't be running these by himself so he must have lieutenants of some kind he's also the richest man in the nations he isn't going to have some two bit thugs defending him, the problem is we don't know who they are or where, they could be in fucking Iwa for all we know which means wave will never be freed and Tazuna will most likely die along with his family until we figure out where and who they are." Kakashi sighed "And how do you propose we do that, we have no intel, no resources and no backup-" Ena interrupted "What he have is the people of wave they hate Gato right, and he most likely doesn't give a shit what they know because they can't do anything until we came along we can help. Tazuna you got any information on Gato?"
Tazuna stammered for a moment. "W-well during the first year Gato took over wave he had me and my construction crew build him a mansion on the outskirts of town near the sea." Ena looked at his team "That's where they are Gato most likely knows we're here so he'll hold a meeting right I'll infiltrate the mansion and see what I can find simple." Kakashi suddenly spoke up "woah, woah, woah why do you get to go I'm the jonin here!"
"Yeah and your half dead besides if I can hide from ANBU as a child I can hide from a couple of thugs and if anything goes wrong, which it won't, I'll come right back here." He looked in Tazuna's direction "Hey old man what's the time?" He asked with a raised brow Tazuna looked at the clock before replying replied "Uh 08:00 PM." Ena cracked his neck "Alright that gives me around three hours to prepare and think of a plan."
He nodded to himself then began to make his way back upstairs declining Albedos request to join him. Making his way into the room he woke up in. He closed the door and sighed placing the back of his head against the door, this was a difficult situation he had to infiltrate a mansion of a known and powerful crime lord not knowing how many guards were there as he began to think of a plan a text box appeared.

Kekkei Genkai added: Scorch release
Jutsu added for unlocking scorch release: extremely steaming murder
Companion crystal added: Bayonetta
Item Added: The Lament Configuration
Summon Added: Artoria pendragon (Alter)
Ena smirked not bad. A good weapon some summons two companions and of all things a kekkei genkai although he would have to be careful or people will start asking questions about how he gained such a thing. Looking over the description for the lament configuration he frowned in thought and summoned it from his inventory, it was a box with an intricate gold and brown design a look of confusion appeared on his face this was a puzzle box? How was he supposed to solve it, shrugging to himself he placed it back into his inventory. Ena suddenly realised something he hadn't used any saint's quartz or how many he had with a thought he gained his answer
Saint Quartz: 12
Twelve that as it that was enough for four summonses. But first things first seeing how it works and how to use it
Would you like to use saint's quartz [Yes/No]?
Well that answers that tapping yes, unsurprisingly a quartz appeared in his hand it was rainbow coloured and seemed to be made of numerous triangle suddenly it transformed into a card with the image of a women in robes with a set of scales on one hand and something else he didn't have time to look closely as the card began to glow red Ena's eyes widened "Oh shit!" throwing the card down he widened jumped upwards sticking to the ceiling staring at the card he watched as it landed on the floor and suddenly the room was bathed in red as a circle appeared with a star on the inside and writing in a language Ena didn't know around the sides the circle began to brighten Ena braced himself and then a blinding white light over took the room.
Ena dropped from the ceiling landing in a crouch as the light disappeared, he saw someone standing in place of the circle was a woman, she was so beautiful Ena had a hard time believing she was real, she had fair skin and amethyst eyes, long blond hair in a braided ponytail. She wore a dark blue battle dress covered by a cloak of the same colour along with a large silver cross on either side. Ena and the woman stared at each other for a few moments before a smile graced her mouth and she finally spoke
"I am Jeanne d'Arc, a ruler class servant. I am really glad to have finally met you master!" she finished with a bow and a smile Ena looked confused for a moment before a sharp pain made him fall to one knee. His right hand burned Jeanne gasped and was quickly at his side "Master are you alright!?" she asked concerned Ena winced the pain in his hand wouldn't go away he removed the glove looking for what was causing it. on the back of his hands was a red marking that looked almost like a dragon, Ena winced in pain as the mark glowed and then turned pith black. He tried to cast observe but it didn't work.
Turning to his left he saw Jeanne a look of concern on her face which turned into a smile when she realised, he was alright. Ena smiled back and stood up putting his glove back on he rolled his shoulders and retrieved his watch from his pocket, he had 2 hours and 75 minutes left to prepare he glanced at the door surprised nobody had barged in yet asking what happened.
That was me. It would be a pain in the ass if you had to keep explaining things to people so they won't care if you summon a servant or companion or get a new object. Your welcome
That kind of made sense even if it felt sort of wrong but that didn't matter right now what did was whether or not to try and summon another servant looking at his newest servant he asked "Jeanne do you know anything that could help me infiltrate a mansion?"
"I'm afraid not master, I'm better at sieging instead of infiltrating you would need an assassin for that. I apologise." The ruler finished with a bow Ena sighed "It's fine I'll figure something else out." Ena began to pace back and forth Jeanne watching him as he began to figure out a plan.
(2 hours 56 minutes later)
Ena was meditating in his temporary bedroom wating for the right time Albedo and Jeanne sat on his bed merely watching as he sat in wait for the agreed upon time. The sound of his door opening made his eyes open. Kakashi was waiting inside the doorway the crutches still supporting him "It's time." Was all he said Ena nodded ignoring the looks of worry from Jeanne and Albedo he began to make his way downstairs Kakashi close behind him.
"So, have you got a plan?" his sensei asked. "Mostly I'll make it up as I go along."
"Ena that's not good enough, promis me that you have some kind of plan."
"I'll be fine sens- "
"Promise me!"
Ena looked into Kakashi's singular eye and answered "I promise I have a plan sensei." Kakashi sighed and then nodded there was no stopping Ena. The young genin began to make his way towards the door as he reached for the handle, he suddenly felt like someone was staring at him. Looking back, he saw Sasuke staring down at him a small scowl on his face they said nothing to each other but Sasuke's opinion was clear he didn't want Ena to leave, in return he merely smirked back at him and left.
(Later)
Ena sat crouched in a tree the midnight sky shrouded his form in darkness, his eyes were narrowed at Gato's mansion which he quickly realised was less of a mansion more of a fortress, 20-foot-high walls with at least fifty guards on them along with one hundred more patrolling the outside and sage knows how many inside. He closed his eyes and inhaled deeply, looked like no matter what Ena would have to sneak unless he wanted an army on his head. Exhaling he forced chakra into his feet and jumped the branch beneath his feet shattering into splinters, he landed on the roof gently unnoticed by the guards he began to slide downwards sticking to the wall looking into a nearby window. Looking inside he saw a hallway with no doors or guards. "Gato's a cocky bastard he assumed no one would attack and didn't even bother locking his windows, what a dumbass." Ena thought opening the window he crawled through
Looking around he realised something quickly. He had no idea where Gato was but he could guess, a man like Gato was obsessed with power and feeling important so he would be on the top floor most likely overlooking the town of waves so that would put him on the north side of the mansion and Ena was on the south side. As Ena began to move the sound of footsteps and voices made him hesitate, "Shit!" he thought leaping up onto the ceiling. Two guards walked past apparently not noticing him both of them were level twelve easy to take care of if necessary but for now he would listen.
"So, did you hear?" Guard one said
"What?"
"The boss is holding a meeting all the top guys are there. It's about that old fucker Tazuna and the shinobi he brought with him that kicked Zabuza's ass and what to do with them."
"Where's the meeting?"
"in the boss's office guys like us won't get anywhere near." Goon one answered.
Ena smirked this was way too easy, he waited for the men to pass then dropped down going back to the window leaping back onto the roof and began to dash towards the north side of the mansion, he stopped suddenly the feeling of being watched looking back he saw nothing but the feeling wouldn't go away jumping down he landed on a balcony in a crouch before two glass doors no one was inside but the doors were locked. Kneeling back down he placed a lockpick into the keyhole and began to pick the lock it was relatively easy with a satisfying click the door's opened.
Skill Level up (Lockpicking) LVL 25/100
Lockpicking is now [Adept] you can now pick locked window's, door's and chests three times as easily and get into certain chests and doors automatically
Opening the doors, he stepped into a room, it seemed to be a combination of a meeting room and an office. A large circular table sat in the middle of the room with three small chairs in a small circle. At the back of the room was a long wooden desk with a throne like chair. Looking around he noticed that display cases surrounded the walls although one in particular grabbed his attention. Behind the long desk was a chest of drawers with an object inside it, walking towards it he looked at the object. It was a strange looking flintlock it was long with a silver barrel and a black handle with a gold border in the centre and a blue line. This looked interesting picking the lock he removed the object from the case and used observe
Name: Evoker
Description: ?
"Huh weird." Ena said as he placed the… evoker into his inventory. With a sigh he prepared to leave when the sound of footsteps reached his ears, if this was Gato's office it was most likely the man himself Ena had to hide looking around he had to find a viable hiding place. Ena looked up and saw some rafters Ena jumped up and landed the glow of his tattoos diming and Ena cloaked himself in the darkness.
After a few moments the door opened and Gato himself walked through, the monster in human skin was a short man with shaggy brown hair wearing a black suit with a purple tie and yellow shirt along with small circular black glasses his right arm was also in a sling. A look of fury was on his face as he walked through the doors, he was flanked by two men the one on his left was exceptionally tall with dark skin and a bald head his eyes where the most curios part of him they were completely yellow and lacked pupils' he was shirtless and had white pants. The man on the right was much shorter and a stark contrast to the man beside him. He had pale skin and wild spiky white hair and was wearing a simple black kimono, these two where currently the biggest threats so Ena decided to cast observe first on the man to Gato's left

Ena narrowed his eyes, the black scorpion and the white crow where had he heard those names before Ena's eyes widened, he though he recognised them. They were the black and white duo he filed that thought away for later and focused on Gato.
The trillionaire businessman looked furious "Are you fucking kidding me I spent five hundred million on the supposed demon of the mist and he can't even kill one old cunt and a couple of little shits!" the man roared Karasu had a blank expression on his face as his current employer shouted in fury while his partner had a sadistic grin. Gato continued his rant "I was hoping that Zabuza would kill Tazuna and you two would kill him and that little shit he had for a partner, the fucking bastard broke my hand." He sat down at his desk seething loudly a knock at the door gained every one's attention and the door opened revealing a maid of all things the young woman spoke fear in her eyes and her voice wavering. "M-Mr Gato your u-uh a-associates are here to s-see you." She finished with a bow Gato merely growled and the woman scurried off.
A few moments later the door opened again and a group of people walked through a moment later three people sat down at the circular table with two of them having another one person standing behind them. Ena sighed he recognised all of these people. The person in the seat to the right was woman she had black hair in a bun pale skin and brown eyes and her outfit consisted of a bright pink kimono with yellow sunflowers that exposed her shoulders and a very large amount of cleavage this was Kazura and she ran Gato's brothels and drug trade. Behind Kazura stood another woman. She was a small petite young woman with large green-blueish eyes and a lean build he hair was black and cut to chin length on either side of her face but with a long braided ponytail, she was also wearing a shozoku tied with a pink obi with tabi socks and zori sandals as well with her lower legs were wrapped in bleu tape and she also had a combination of hand/arm guards that along with the rest of her outfit was coloured blue. A quick cast of observe revealed her name to be makimachi misao and she was surprisingly enough only level twenty-five much lower than Gato's guards.
Ena switched his focus to the man on the right and his bodyguard. The man sitting down was very difficult to recognise his entire body was covered in a poncho ending at his knees his hands were covered with pitch black gloves although there was an insignia that Ena recognised. It was an image of an open coffin that had a single arm and a face with an insane grin. That could mean only one thing "Laughing coffin!" Ena thought his eyes narrowing further, there was rumours of Gato working with the infamous group of assassin's famous said to have killed thousands of broth shinobi and civilians alike but that meant. One quick observe later proved Ena's suspicions this wasn't just some random member this was Vassago Casalas, the leader and founder! Ena now knew who the hooded man was but he didn't know the body guard. Said bodyguard was incredibly tall 7 feet at most he was also exceptionally muscular and had a large scar around his neck, he wore a black leather jacket over a red t-shirt and black pants. He also had metallic armour going across his arm, one thing stood out to Ena which was a necklace that had a circle with an upside triangle inside his eyes narrowed, this man was a jashinist using observe he learned his name, Genma Himuro.
He looked at the last man in the room the one man without a bodyguard, he was also the only one Ena was terrified of. Although it not for the reason you think, it wasn't because he had some great energy inside him or because he looked physically imposing in fact, he was rather average, with short black hair and brown eyes he looked fragile actually although he had a rather large grin on his face. He was wearing a long black coat with brown fur lining over a plane black V-neck T-shirt with black trousers and dark brown shoes. The reason Ena was so scared was because there was so little known about this man, he knew only two things his name and title, this man was Izaya Orihara the grinning ghost, called such because of how little information there was on him and because he was always grinning no matter what.
Ena began to think if all of these criminals were meeting that meant Gato was worried, shaking his head he began to focus on the meeting. Gato spoke first "We have a problem that old bastard Tazuna hired a couple shinobi to protect him and Zabuza failed to stop them." Kazura and Vassago began to laugh at him while Izaya kept his grin making Gato grit his teeth normally if somebody laughed at him he would have them executed violently and publicly but with these three he couldn't afford that, Vassago spoke up insanity in his voice "So the great demon of the mist failed and he won't tell you who beat him, hahaha oh that is rich." Vassago and Kazura began to laugh anew when they calmed down Kazura spoke up in an admittedly seductive and sensual voice "Gato if you want me to I can have one of my girls seduce the demon see if she can't get some information and if that doesn't work maybe Vassago can have a group of his boys try and… persuade Zabuza, what do you think?"
Gato thought for a moment then gave his reply "No we need to focus on making more R=ryo and keeping wave under our control, for now we ignore Zabuza and his pet along with these shinobi unless they want to go to war they can't attack us without retaliation from our friend's in Suna and Oto, they won't let anything happen to us were too important for their little plan." The monster grinned while Ena's eyes once again widened, Gato was helping suna with something why would one of the five great villages need help from a crime Lord like Gato, but Ena didn't know much about Oto must be a knew village but why are they working with suna. He would figure it out later. After a moment of silence Izaya said something "I don't know why were so worried about Zabuza and our business when we should be worried about our guest currently hiding above our heads."
The world seemed to freeze as Ena's body went cold, how did he know! His body screamed at him to move to escape but a foot was suddenly hitting him in his chest stopped him Ena felt a few of his ribs crack and at least one had broken what the hell hit him, he fell from the rafters his back slamming into the hardwood of the circular table. Ena groaned as all of the fighters in the room surrounded him. Gato looked shocked for a moment then smiled "Well what have we hear? A little shinobi hiding like a rat. Now where might you be form eh?" Gato looked at his headband and his smile stretched "Konoha huh I'm guessing you are one of those shinobi Tazuna hired. Don't worry we're not going to kill you but we are going to torture you until you tell us where all your little friends are. You're going to have a real fun time boy!" the mad man finished Gato nodded at black scorpion whose grin grow wider and picked the young jinchuriki up.
Ena began to panic he couldn't let these assholes find out where Tazuna or his team was. He began to focus his energy the genin's eyes flashed blue and chakra exploded from his body sending the people in the room flying backwards stunning them temporarily. Ena took the opportunity and burst through the door Gato and his associates came through slamming it behind him he jammed a kunai inside the lock.
Catching his breath, the genin took in his surroundings, he was inside a hallway and considering he was on the top floor there was most likely a set of stairs he just had to find it. As he began to formulate some kind of plan the sound of a bell ringing loudly seven doors opened along the hallway began to open and seven men stepped out all of them looking confused until they saw Ena and a look of bloodlust appeared, they soon began to run towards the genin. Ena sighed "why can't anything be easy" he thought and brought his fists up ready to fight.
The first man to reach him was only level 10 easy to take of, Ena dodge the first punch ducking underneath and delivering a barrage of fist to is opponent ending with a knee to the face knocking the grunt unconscious, moving onto the next grunt who was the same level but had a slightly higher strength stat Ena leapt upward grabbing the man by the head and slamming him down knocking him out as well. The next four were slightly smarter as they attacked all at once trying to overwhelm the boy with numbers with little success Ena reached into his inventory and released the power pole extending it, he knocked down the four grunts easily breaking a couple of bones along the way. Returning the weapon back to its usual length he sighed only to jump when the door behind him exploded into splinters'
Looking back, he saw Gato and his associates along with their bodyguards and they did not look very happy. Black scorpion threw a hail of senbon at Ena which the genin deftly blocked or avoided. Turning around the boy began to run fast; he wouldn't say he was weak his stats showed that but against a group of high-level assassins and body guards he stood little chance. As he dashed through the hallway, he turned a corner and the wall beside him exploded revealing Genma! The giant of a jashinist grabbed him tackling him to the floor Ena was grabbed by the face and thrown backwards onto the floor injuring his ribs more. Looking up he saw the bodyguards along with the associates in front of him and genma behind he was trapped. Breathing heavily Ena began to think as Gato began to monologue he tuned out the annoying voice and focused on forming an escape plan. "So, I'm surrounded by high-level enemy's in a mansion full of guards by myself. Not great odds I admit but I'm smart, I can escape but how?" he thought he looked down at the floor "hang on a minute the floor!" A grin appeared on the Ki users face and an orb of yellow KI formed in his hand which he quickly slammed down onto the floor blowing it up and letting him fall through!
Ena landed with a grunt and quickly recovered standing up he looked at his right arm it was burnt and bleeding profusely and he could see bits of muscel and bone. Ena ignored it as his arm began to heal quickly steam emenating from the wounds, shaking his head he turned and quickly began to run before anyone could catch up. This plan quickly backfired when the wall to his left exploded and Genma's fist wrapped around his throat. the jashinist lifted him up as a smile grew along his face, Ena began to choek as he punched the isnane man in the face over and over again with little effect as the man regenarated far too quickly for any lasting damage! In a last ditch effort the boy retrievd a kunai from his inventory and jammed it into Genma's neck the blade peircing through with the tip sticking out the ither side. growling in pain Genma reared his arm back and threw Ena as hard as he could the youth tearing through numerous walls ending with his body practiclayy imbeded in a stone wall. tearing himself out the youth began looking around, he realised he was in some kind of empty warehouse looking out a window he saw nothing but water he slammed his fist into the wall in anger he was so close! The sound of footsteps made him freeze how the fuck did they catch up so quickly!? Whirling around he saw Gato and a large group of goons the monster smiled "I admit boy you impressed me I didn't expect you to pull something like that, but that means your too dangerous to keep alive how unfortunate I'm sure some of Kuvira's girls would have had fun with you."
Ena didn't reply he merely reached into his inventory and retrieved the Evoker pointing it at Gato who's smirk widened "That thing doesn't work brat trust me I tried I only kept it because it looked nice it's useless!" Ena looked at the evoker his breathing growing heavier. What could he do, what could he do! As he began to hyperventilate, he suddenly stopped. Lifting the weapon up he pointed the barrel at his head and with an almost insane grin said one word
"pe..r..so..na."
A bang resounded in the warehouse followed by the sound of glass shattering as glass like shards began to explode from Ena's head forming a small tornado above and behind him forming something. The thing was big and almost mechanical with stilt like legs its torso was platinum and it had a red scarf wrapped around its neck, its eyes glowed an intense red. Oddly enough it's face and hair was also similar to Ena's it also had a large lyre on its back. A voice suddenly resounded around the room coming from the creature
I am thou.
Thou art me.
I am come from the sea of thy heart.
I am the master of strings
Orpheus!
Ena's grin grew wider "Agilao!" he commanded Orpheus who strummed his lyre and the ground infront of of Gato's men suddenyl exploded in a fiery blast that luanched them off there feet. Ena dashed forward as Orpheus disappeared holding a kunai in his right hand and the evoker in his left he began to fight. He reached Gato first and using the kunai slashed his face leaving a very deep gash blood exploded from the wound as Gato screamed in agony. Ena left him moving onto a group of men, placing the evoker at his head again he pulled the trigger and manifested Orpheus who batted the guards away with his lyre breaking the bones. Dashing forward once again he began to kick, punch and slash any of the men before him blood covered his form although none of his opponents had died, he threw the kunai which went through one guards' hand and periced another in the shoulder.
Ena ignored the screames of pain and summoned Masamune whirling around he blocked a strike from white crow, the bodyguard's face had no expression but Ena could practiclay tatste fury coming off the man. white crow was wielding dual kageromaru he spoke his voice level and monotone "You harmed my master I will not allow this to stand!" he finished and began to slash at Ena who blocked or parried each strike, white crow was able to get a few slashes in, which while shallow still hurt like a bitch. Growling Ena leaped backwards placing the evoker and Masamune in his inventory, two orbs of Ki appeared in each hand he launched them at white crow and the orbs missed? As white crow dodged, he suddenly stopped a look of confusion on his face he wasn't moving an inch but the boy was still missing. "u-um... I stopped dodging… are… are you aiming for me?" he asked very confused. "NO!" Ena yelled in reply White crow's confusion grew "W-what do you mean no?" his head suddenly shot up as he gasped looking around, he noticed what the genin was doing hundreds of orbs of Ki surrounded him and realization set in "Oh… oh… oh shit." He finished lamely.
"HELLZONE GRENADE!" Ena roared the orbs changed from yellow to purple and began to rapidly spin before raining down onto the bodyguard in a vicious onslaught! an explosion shook the warehous and when the smoke cleared a crater was revealed it was massive covering most of the floor, Ena expected an injured white crow he had channeld just enoupgh power to at most cripple the bodyguard but all he saw was cherry blossoms? Pain suddenly exploded on his back falling down with a grunt he received Masamune spinning quickly he slashed through white crows' body only instead of blood it was more cherry blossoms! The jinchuriki growled in anger and he began to slash wieldy each time he hit white crow he just transformed into blossoms and it was pissing him off!
He felt something appeared behind him he expected it to be White crow but instead it was Gato blood oozing out of his wound he was also holding a flintlock but this one was very different, the barlle was slight shorter and connected to a cylander wboth of which were black with gold engraving while than handle was polished ivory Ena had no time to react and only one thing came to mind which quicjy escaped his mouth "oh."
Gato shot once and the bullet tore through his shoulder
He shot again this time going through his knee
A third bullet went in his stomach hitting his
As Ena's blood splattered the wall behind him Gato took aim at his head prepared to finish the young boy off. Ena suddenly felt a hand on his shoulder that squeezed and he blacked out.
(4 hours later)
Ena woke up with a gasp once again and realised he was back in Tazuna's house this time on the couch. As he looked around, he noticed the bandages on his torso and stomach he chuckled quietly "Déjà vu." He mumbled looking to his left he saw Kakashi sitting on the chair staring at him.
"Ena" He started "I need you to tell me exactly what happened." Ena began to think and answered "A lot of things happened but more importantly I know how to save wave and how to destroy Gato's empire"
A/N: And fucking finally this chapter is done. Holy shit I did not expect this chapter to take so long (four months jesus christ!) but that's on me I got very distracted by many things including persona 5 royal (Which I have lost all of my saved data for so I was in a bit sad about that for quite a while) and Mortal Kombat eleven which has recently released Kombat pack 2 (Mileena best girl BTW) 11 so that's on me so sorry my bad. Which is why I made this chapter far longer than usual at 7711 words. Although I have to admit I may have jumped the gun here with the Shinigami powers and probably the persona but I could not think of a better time to add them other than pretty early on so I may at some other point later on in the story to expand on these things although I am open to what you think so if you want to say or just want to ask non spoiler question either PM me or review. And with that I will see you next which will hopefully be much sooner next time hopefully no promises though. See ya.
