It had been 6 years since the banishment of one Naruko Uzumaki. Now, since the Land of the Waves has been prospering due to the freedom they acquired through the death of the tyrant Gato by the hands of Zabuza the Demon of the Mist and Naruko Uzumaki, it has been seeking a new alliance with the Land of the Spring due to the banishment of the heroine. Tazuna, the new Daimyo of the Wave, had chosen a single female bodyguard to accompany him to the Land of the Spring, requesting her aid from her home in the ruins of the Whirlpool. The bodyguard he requested accepted and agreed to accompany the old bridge builder.
A blonde haired woman with blue eyes and three whisker-like marks on each cheek, sighed softly as she waited outside the office of her old friend, waiting for him to come out so they could start the journey to the Land of the Spring. She was wearing a white undershirt with a purple kimono-style blouse over it and a blue obi, and a pair of biker shorts, hugging her body and accentuating her curves. She wore knee-high armored boots and a black leather belt which held her ninja pouch, on her hands were purple fingerless gloves, and she wore a massive 6 foot greatsword across her back, which was made from a strong chakra-conductive steel and laced with various seals which allowed her to channel chakra and elements into the blade.
"Thank you so much for coming to guard me again, Uzumaki-dono," Tazuna said as he opened the door to his office, snapping the blonde out of her thoughts.
The old man now wore a kimono of different shades of blue, and his hair had been smoothed back and combed, a far cry from his bridge-building clothes. Tazuna gazed at Naruko with a grandfatherly smile.
"As you know, The Ruler of the Spring wishes to discuss a trade alliance with the Land of the Waves," the man told his Nation's heroine, getting a nod from her. "Are you comfortable with the long journey? I can ask for more bodyguards if you wish to lighten the work for you."
Naruko looked up with a smile, "Tazuna-Jiji, don't worry, I can handle this and I would do anything for you and your family" she said as Tazuna smiled in thanks and put his hand on her shoulder. Then the two of them left his office to leave for the journey.
A Few Miles from The Land of the Spring
Tazuna and his bodyguard Naruko had almost made their way to the Land of the Spring when Naruko, being a sensor, sensed several life signatures in the trees, and motioned for Tazuna to stop.
"I know you're out there," she called. Five bandits came out of the brush, holding clubs and kunai, with nasty grins on their faces. Each of them were wearing leather garments for light protection, and boots as well.
"We're here for the old man, girlie, he has quite the price on his head. Just get out of our way, and you won't break a nail or two," one of the bandits said. Naruko's eyes narrowed dangerously, and her knuckles tightened on the hilt of her greatsword.
"I'll give you one warning. Leave now. My job is to protect Tazuna-Jiji. I will not kill you if you choose to leave." Naruko spoke. The bandits laughed and said, "Fine, have it your way, we'll kill both of you."
"It's your loss," a female voice spoke from behind the bandits, making their eyes widen in surprise. They quickly turned only for a purple-clad figure to swing her blade at them. In her hands was a massive single-edged greatsword, six feet in length and a foot and a half wide, engraved with different seals. Pushing her wind-natured chakra through the blade, she sliced through the first two bandits, cutting them in half.
The other three quickly jumped back, positioning themselves to surround her. Immediately they threw kunai at great speeds, but Naruko quickly brought her blade up and deflected them into the third bandit, the kunais immediately killing him at the lungs, throat, and heart. After the blonde spun on her heel and quickly beheaded the fourth bandit.
The last bandit, a young man, hesitated, staring in fear and anger as he weighed the option of attacking and being instantly killed like his fellow comrades, or running in order to save his life, and chose to run. "Smart choice." Naruko said as she gazed coldly at the running man.
The Land of the Spring
The duo finally arrived at the Land of the Spring. "I thank you so much for protecting me," Tazuna said. "I don't know what I would have done if you hadn't come with me." Naruko hugged Tazuna as he bade her goodbye, for the Ruler of the Spring Koyoki was waiting patiently.
"Don't you want to stay for a little bit?" Koyoki asked. "I assure you, I have plenty of room to house you for a couple of days." Naruko shook her head. "Thanks for the offer, but I need to go to take care of other things." Naruko said with a smile.
"Be careful out there, Naruko-chan." Tazuna said as he finished hugging her, knowing that he wouldn't see his nation's heroine for a while.
"Of course Tazuna-jiji," Naruko said as she moved back with a smile. "If I have survived for six years on my own, I'm sure I can take care of myself." She waved to Tazuna and Koyoki one last time before she turned and walked towards the city gates. She stopped several times to grab food supplies and some kunai and shurikens, for she was running low. Storing them in scrolls and straightening her sword on her back, she thought, 'I can probably take my time getting back to the ruins of the Whirlpool to train since my taijutsu needs some serious work. I guess I'll just start walking.'
The blonde walked through the gate, leaving the Land of the Spring, towards the ruins of the Whirlpool.
In a hideout near the Land of the Spring
The bandit closed the door, breathing hard, thinking, 'Man, that bitch got us good. She got Ren, Takashi, Ao, and Lee in an instant. I need to gather the rest of us and think of a plan to get revenge and take her down.'
A few hours later...
The bandit, whose name was Ken, finally exhaled in relief, for the rest of the bandits came. Some were mid tier missing-nin, and some were just civilian bandits. They were numbered 50. Ken finally stood up and said, "Alright everyone, we have a new target. There's this young blonde woman who killed four of us in an instant, and she's really powerful and a huge threat to us. I think I've found her in the bingo book. She's Naruko Uzumaki, a.k.a. the Golden Blade Mistress. She's ranked S rank too."
The bandits whispered to another, muttering how impossible it was for them to defeat a warrior of that magnitude. After all, they were only ranked B and C at best, and had no chance of defeating her.
Ken, having enough of the commotion, shouted, "Silence!" Everyone quieted down. "I have a plan to deal with her, and we might even get to have some fun with her if my plan works," he said with a lewd and nasty grin. Other bandits also smiled nastily. "I bought this seal from the black market. It blocks chakra indefinitely until someone takes it off, chakra is overloaded into it, or the time limit wears out, which is one hour. Someone disguised as an old homeless man will be waiting for her on the road, asking for food. Since she's very compassionate, she will take the bait and give our person some food. When the homeless man approaches her, he will grab her forearm, placing the seal on her without her knowing. After this, we wait 15 minutes and then launch the ambush on her. With 45 minutes, we'll be able to subdue her and have our way with her since she won't have any chakra, and can't sense us or even use any jutsu."
The bandits all marvelled at the plan about how thought out and ingenius it was. They all agreed to it and left to retire to their quarters, anticipating and thinking of tomorrow where they would have the young blonde woman in their hands.
