Itachi ch4
Kisame, Itachi and Naruto reached Grass a week later. In that time Kisame and Itachi had both tried to find out what level ninja Naruto was, to no avail.
"How come you won't tell us? You know our status," Kisame whined.
"A good ninja never reveals his secrets even to his loved ones. Besides you already know I'm stronger then you so you have a clue. I'm just not going to tell you if you're right or wrong."
"Spoil sport."
"This coming from the fish that won't even tell us why were heading to a ninja conference over in Grass where there'll be more then two hundred nin who all know at least a hundred ways to kill." Naruto raised an eyebrow and gave Kisame an amused look before he jumped onto a tree and shot off.
Itachi groaned and gave Kisame a look before sighing and saying, "he's changed, but I'm glad he still has that trait." before following.
Kisame just smiled and followed suite.
"""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""
Naruto held back a laugh as he watched Kisame confront another Mist nin and start yelling at him for killing who ever it was that Kisame was in trouble for.
"Dose he know how to be discrete or is he actually trying to cause a scene?" Naruto barely got out while he stifle his chuckles.
"I think his intent is to cause a scene, from what I recall Mist nin have a tendency to lose their temper in a hot situation. That guy Kisame's confronting will eventually lose his temper and admit the truth, thus clearing Kisame's name." Itachi chuckled as he watched the fish nin make an overly dramatic gesture that might have been obscene if you knew what context it was used in.
"Uchiha Itachi."
Both Naruto and Itachi turn to see a silver haired nin with a mask covering his face and a Konoha forehead protector over his left eye. Next to him was what looked like a match stick or maybe broccoli, a smaller broccoli and two very disturbed looking teenagers. One was a girl with her hair pulled into two buns and the other had white almost pupliless eyes and dark brown hair.
"Hm... Kakashi, it's been a while. How have you been?" Itachi asked lightly, smirking as he leaned back against the wall of a building.
Kakashi's visible eye blinked. He was not expecting that.
"Since when have you had a sense of humor, Itachi? Never mind, don't answer that. I've come to inform you that by order of the Hokage you are to return to Konoha immediately."
Itachi chuckled and responded sarcastically. "So I've heard. I guess you've finally realized I'm on your side." He fake-sighed. "But I'm afraid it'll have to wait a little bit. I want to see how this ends." Itachi said as he motioned over to where his partner stood, waving his sword around like a nut case.
"Gai-sensei! Is this the infamous Itachi who saved Konoha three or four years ago when that one person slaughtered his clan? And became an s-class missing nin because of it?" The smaller match stick yelled moving into a good guy pose.
"Indeed it is Lee." Replied the taller one who smiled and blinded every one passing.
"Gai-sensei!"
"Lee!"
"Gai-sensei!"
"Lee!"
"Gai-sensei!"
"Lee!"
The taller matchstick rushed forward to hug the smaller one, posed in front of a sunset. Uhh...
"I've met demons less annoying then you two... For Kami-samas sake, please tell me you aren't the green beast of Konoha that even the Tailed demon lords fear." Naruto yelled as he stepped backwards.
"Yes I am the Beautiful green beast of Konoha! And these are my students Lee, the youthful beautiful green beast of Konoha, the youthful Neji, and the Youthful Tenten. Pray tell who are you?" Gai shouted and Naruto had to recalibrate his brain to process the Gai moment.
"I'm the Kitsune Sennin, Uzumaki Naruto, formally of both Anirica and the village hidden in the Leaves."
"A Sennin at your age, you must truly have the power of youth!"
"Puberty has nothing to do with it. I just had good teachers and a bit of luck." At this point Naruto had lost a lot of common sense to the odd nin. "Excuse me I think I need to go sit down."
"He's a Sennin, well it makes sense. Kisame is gonna have a fit though." Itachi said as Naruto walked over to a nearby bench to recover.
"Mah...that's the kuuby kid? What happened to him?" Kakashi asked feigning bored interest.
"I'm not too sure. About a week ago I got back to camp after scouting the area and Kisame's out cold. Next thing I know Naruto's sitting there in front of me talking, and asking me to return to Konoha." Itachi summarized as he turned back to look at Kisame, who was now innocent of whatever his crime was and currently chasing the guy who framed him with Samehada out and hitting him every time he got close.
'If I don't die first from retaining my passion for Naru-kun, Kisame will slash me to death with Samehada,' Itachi thought amusedly.
