Gold Collecting

Chapter 24

I don't own Legends of Zelda or Naruto

Infurgus flew across the grassy plains in a burning rage. As he passed over the plains he spotted a small town in the distance. Infurgus crashed in the grass, burning the land around him letting out a heavy breath as he skidded across the ground. The earth rumbled outside the village. Many villagers exited their houses to see Infurgus spreading flames. Several screams escaped the mouths of the citizens. Infurgus eyed the villagers as they ran away.

"I'm here to kill you." Infurgus breathed. Not many of them stopped but a few listened. "Bring me all the valuables you got or I burn you all alive!" Infurgus roared. Many of the villagers made a run for it. To their dismay Infurgus incinerated them in an instant. The remaining few watched in terror as their friends and families disappeared into ash.

"I won't... ask... again." Infurgus finished. The last of the villagers rushed into their houses and gave Infurgus every scrap of gold and gems they could find. Infurgus laughed at the misery. Many of the villagers whimpered as they handed over the valuables. However when Infurgus relished his small pile of treasures, he eyed a small girl silently crying. Infurgus huffed to her. She stole a glare towards him. He let out a heavy breath before restoring the villagers that have fallen.

"That's better. This may be a start!" Infurgus crackle wildly.

(With Ronin)

Ronin sat atop a tree as he contemplated how he was gonna clear the bandits. He could summon a horde of clones and round them up. However he would probably round up some of the wrong people.

"..." Ronin waited as the noise of speaking and moving filled his ears. Ronin gazed off with Aki in his hair. He relished the view of the sunset. He gazed upon the many camp occupants shuffling into their tents as the night drew near. Many children were brung into the 'safety' of the tents. Ronin dropped down the tree and landed softly on the soil. Ronin headed back to Tage's tent.

Ronin walked through the encampment, glaring at every bandit who eyed him. He turned into the tent to see Tage working and Retsuko lying in her bed silently. Ronin quietly greeted Tage and set up a plan.

"Do you happen to have any names or drawings of some of these crooks?" Ronin started.

"Well I have one photo…" Tage stopped and reached under his desk to reveal a picture of the woman who attacked Ronin.

"I guess I gotta get more info. Thank you ." Ronin pivoted on the heel of his feet and walk out of the tent in search of the woman. As Ronin roamed the streets he observed that many of the camp occupants were returning to their tents and cottages. As the night crept over the encampment, more crooks started to roam. They searched for helpless people to rob or kill. Ronin countered many glared as he continued his search. Eventually, Ronin found himself in an improvised bar. To his left, two drunks were duking it out, and to his right laughter escaped the mouths of others. Ronin spotted the woman amongst the crowd and quickly made his way to her. As he closed in a guy stepped in front of him.

"Look at this boys! We got us a newcomer." The man informed. Many of the people were now staring at Ronin, including the woman.

"Yeah." Ronin flared and Aki howled in anticipation. "What are you gonna do about it?" Ronin pokes the man in the chest. He quickly drew a kunai from his pocket. Ronin held his hand behind him trying to summon his scythe. To his dismay, he had lost access to it along with the cursed flames. The man quickly closed the distance as Ronin prepared for the fight.

(With Lana)

Lana rushed out of the hall. Lana quickly rushed to the pad and quickly decided to go to the goddess Farone questioning whether Faron was named after her. Lana quickly ascended into the air and flew towards the goddess location.

Lana made haste. The trip would take 2 days to complete without rest but Lana pushed forward. As she sped across the sky she examined the world below. Hyrule castle lay in the sunlight, shadowing everything behind it. Further south a city smaller than Hyrule was being built. This concerned Lana as she flew ahead.

After magic enchanting Lana sped through the sky reaching Farone's domain in a matter of hours. Once she landed. Lana dashed towards the grassy temple. Many young dekus gazed at her as the angel rushed away. As she skidded to the temples entrance she was greeted by the first of the four goddesses.

(With Ren)

Ren roamed the streets of Konoha in search of Koro for a rematch. He has had less of a swarm of fangirls so he could walk in peace. Eventually he reached a training yard where Asuma's team was training.

"Koro!" Ren called as he approached the four. The four turned and faced Ren.

"Ren? What are you here for?" Koro questioned. He held his katana at his side.

"You said you wanted a rematch!" Ren grinned as he took the long blade into his hands. Koro spun his blade upward and fell to his fighting stance. The two stared at each other seconds after.

Ren dashed forward blade held to his side. Koro stood his ground. Ren curved the blade around him and swung his blade with might force. Koro blocked the incoming attack and countered with a quick stab. Ren grabbed the blade and shoved Koro backwards.

Koro stumbled backwards as Ren slashed upwards. Koro jumped back and flipped over Ren and cut his shoulder-plate. Ren spun around and cut Koro's arm. The two nodded to each other for trading blows. Ren drew a breath and twirled the hilt across the ball of his palm and slashed the area around Koro's arm. Koro ducked under the blade and jumped up and slashed Ren up his torso. Ren felt the blade glide across his chest and snuck a quick slash across Koro's chest. Koro flew upwards but, Ren grabbed Koro's leg an slammed him into the ground.

Koro and Ren scrambled backwards. Ren and Koro stood at a draw. Ren grinned and sheathed his blade. Immediately after Koro crumbled to his knees.

"I yield…" Koro panted. His team was let out a dismayed sigh. Ren pulled Koro up.

"Good job." Ren groaned as he lifted Koro up. He touched his chest and blood oozed onto his fingers. Ren pulled out some bandages and patched himself up. He gave the remains to Koro. "I expect better the next time we cross swords." Ren gave Koro a thumbs up and walked away. Koro gazed at Ren as he walked away. Koro smirked

"Next time I'll win Ren!" Koro called. Ren had a hearty laugh as he disappeared.

(With Naruto)

Naruto was strewn across his couch browsing channels on the TV. He sighed despite himself. A heavy knock came from the door. Naruto groaned silently and slid off the couch. He approached the door and opened it. Jiraiya stood at the entrance with a wide smile.

"What do you want Pervy sage?" Naruto questioned. Jiraiya's face scrunched up.

"Stop calling me that!" Jiraiya proclaim. "You said that you wanted to learn a new Jutsu and we are gonna find a nice woman as well." Jiraiya grinned. Naruto stared inanely.

"You know what? Fine, I have nothing left to do for however long. I got time. Let me pack." And with that Naruto shut the door. Naruto stretched and yawned as he proceeded up stairs. Jiraiya stood patiently outside as Naruto gathered a variety items for the trip. As Naruto inched around the house as he gathered some clothes and weapons. Soon Naruto walked out the house to meet Jiraiya leaning against the wall.

"Alright let's go!" Jiraiya grinned as he guided Naruto away from the house. Naruto happily followed wondering what jutsu he was going to learn.

"So who is the woman we are looking for?" Naruto asked skeptically. Jiraiya looked back with a slight grin.

"We are looking for the last Sannin to take the place of Hokage." Naruto gazed in surprise at the Sannin who turned away and marched forward.

(With Faron)

Faron sat with Nia and Goro waiting for their sensei to show.

"Kikato sensei is usually never late. This is the second time." Goro mentioned. Faron stood idle not acknowledging. Nia piped up.

"Well all the Jonin have been busy. Maybe he just got caught up." Nia quickly defended. Goro only sighed at the answer. Faron remained silent.

"Well if we're waiting…" Goro stood up. "I want to see what you got Faron! You can't be as strong as you let on." Goro pointed. Faron only turned.

"I prefer not to fight right now." Faron informed. Gori approached him in a opposing manner.

"What? You too scared to face me?" Goro accused, grinning viciously.

"No. At this point in time you are no match for me." Faron spat, pressing the hilt of his blade against Goro's chest. Nia stepped besides the two and pushed them apart.

"This is no time or place for a fallout." Nia commented. Goro huffed and Faron just continued his idle post. "You two are a handful you know that?"

"Apologies, I don't mean to provoke either of you." Faron stated.

"Yeah, Yeah, ya tin can." Goro shot. Before it could elevate Kikato appeared.

"Let's not do this." Kikato groaned. "We are going on a D ranked mission. We are gonna be doing deliveries around town. The three nodded. Faron quickly made hand signs and his armor disappeared. The four walked into town to complete their task.

(With Ronin)

Ronin slid across the floor as he dodged the kunai coming his way. Ronin kneed the man in the stomach and swung his fist into the man's cheek.

"You little…" The man spat venom in his words as Ronin gave the man a heavy kick to his head. Ronin watched as the unconscious man crumbled to the floor.

"Lady come with me!" Ronin demanded as he shoved pass some thugs. To his dismay many of the other patrons stood against Ronin.

"You think you can just walk in a drag someone away kid?" The lady smiled. There was shuffle behind Ronin.

"All of you thugs have been messing with the innocent people of this encampment. They have suffered long enough." Ronin said as he easily had his hand explode in Necros fire. Ronin made some magic seals and fire burned the surrounding crowd. "Now come with me or I'll take you by force."

"Go with the kid. If he is here for you, you're obviously more trouble than you're worth." One man in the corner commented. The lady just sighed and took one last swig of her drink. She walked out the opening with Ronin following her.

Once they are in the street, Ronin began to yell at the woman.

"Where are all the hideouts!?" Ronin questioned as he held an orb of fire to his side.

"What are you talking about?" The lady grinned smugly.

"Don't act stupid!" Ronin engaged.

"I'm not."

"Why are you guys here?" Ronin spat.

"This our stronghold. We stay here until we get hired."

"Okay so you guys just terrorize the people just living their lives?"

"Yeah sure. Sometimes work doesn't come around for months."

"Is that all you have."

"That's all I have." Against Ronin's judgement he threw a kunai through her neck. She crumpled to the floor. Ronin only realized what he has done right after the action.

"Damn Infurgus. He's getting to me." Ronin said openly. He dashed off towards Tage's tent.

(With Infurgus)

"Report?" Infurgus sighed as a troop scrambled in front of him.

"Building production is being halted temporarily. We have some complaints from the other city-folk." The troop recited. Outside of the large building stood an ever growing village all under Infurgus' rule.

"Bring the delinquents here. By force if necessary!" Infurgus yelled to the troop. The man tripped over himself as he scrambled out of the building. The general of Infurgus' small army stood next to him.

"Sir. Is this the way to do all of this?" The general asked.

"Are you questioning my judgement?" Infurgus growled.

"Uhh. No sir. It's just that this aggression against the civilians seems meaningless." The general remarked.

"You can't rule without a hint of fear in the mix." Infurgus grinned. "So you make examples to get the message across."

Hey there. Thanks to all the new favorites and followers
