-With Someone/ Someplace-
Kakashi sighed, and looked at Naruto, "Well we need to go get a mission from The Hokage before we can do anything." Team 7 just nodded, and started walking towards the Hokage Tower. In only a matter of minutes Team 7 was standing in front of Sandaime, with Naruto ranting on about certain things.
"Come on Ojiisan! I'm tired of these lame ass missions! I want one that will actually challenge me!" Kakashi just sighed at Naruto's behavior.
"Naruto we've only taken one D-Rank mission you can't say your tired of them, because we haven't had enough for you to be tired of." Naruto just spun around and glared at Kakashi. He then turned back around when he heard Sandaime sigh.
"Ok fine Naruto, but when you guys get back your going to have to make up for it with lots of D-Rank missions." Naruto got a huge grin on his face, while Sasuke smirked, and Sakura smiled. Kakashi just rubbed his temples.
Sandaime looked through some folders, pulled one out, and threw it on his desk in front of Team 7, and himself. He then turned back to the team in front of him.
"Ok this is a C-Rank mission, and that is the highest your getting, got it?" Team 7 just nodded, then Sandaime continued, "This is going to be an escort mission, so if you could come in, and introduce yourself please." Sandaime asked to an unknown source, and just then the door slid open, and an old man holding a bottle of sake walked in.
"What the hell is this!? I'm getting kids for this job!? I was expecting better ninja then this! Are they actually even ninja!? Well anyway I'm Tazuna The Great Bridge Builder, and the one you brats are going to protect with your lives." Naruto was getting pissed off by the old man already, and he knew that if said old man didn't shut the hell up soon, then he was going to lose the ability to breath. Naruto however was hoping that the old man would say something else to him or his team. Then as if the old man had heard Naruto's thoughts he turned to him, and said, "Is that short, stupid looking one, even a ninja?"
Instantly Naruto had a kunai out, and a second later he was right in front of the old man with that same bloodthirsty smirk on, that he had on when he fought the villagers, ninja, and Anbu. When Tazuna saw Naruto appear right in front of him his eyes widened, and he took a step back, but it didn't help seeing as Naruto had already jumped at him, aiming for his neck. Tazuna was sure he was going to die, so he just closed his eyes, until he heard the clash of metal, and felt no pain. He opened his eyes slowly to see Kakashi, and even Sandaime holding Naruto back. Tazuna let out a sigh of relief, making a note to never insult the blond boy again. Naruto however was still going crazy, which caused Tazuna to panic slightly.
Sandaime who was holding Naruto's armed hand was trying to talk him out of it, "Naruto you have to calm down unless you don't want this mission, because if you kill the client then the mission cant exist now can it?" This caused Naruto to settle down, and put his kunai back into its pouch. He then turned, and walked back to a scared Sakura, and a slightly shocked Sasuke. Sasuke was getting to the point where he was expecting stuff like this to happen so he wasn't as shocked as he would have been if he hadn't, but Sakura wasn't used to it at all, and still was scared to death of Naruto when he was like this.
After Naruto wasn't on the verge of killing Tazuna anymore, they got down to business.
"Ok Team 7 you will be escorting Tazuna into the Wave Country, but you don't have to worry, because there shouldn't be any encounters. At the most there will be a group of bandits, but they shouldn't be a problem for your team." Sandaime said with a smile then continued, "Ok Team 7 you're dismissed! You should meet at the Konaha Gates in about two hours so you can leave. Until then however do as you please." Team 7 all walked out of the Hokage's Office, all except for Naruto that is. He decided it would be better, faster, and easier, if he just jumped out the window, and did just that.
Naruto was on his way back to his apartment when Sasuke, and Sakura came into view. He sighed to himself as he saw Sakura running towards him, and he swore he saw a tear fly from the corner of her eye. Naruto once again just again sighed to himself,
'I can't believe I used to actually like this girl. She's just annoying, and a nuisance.' Sakura ran straight up to him, and pretty much tackled him, but it was just a hug that went a little to far.
Naruto looked at the girl that was laying on top of him, crying, with no emotion in his features at all, but he figured he would just let her cry, because he was trying to be nicer to the people around him. Even if it was for the wrong reasons.
"Naruto! I'm so glad your ok! I was so worried about you!" The pink haired girl screamed, sobbing, into Naruto's chest.
After a good twenty minutes Sakura had calmed down, and finally got off of a very irritated Naruto. Naruto stood up, and sighed deeply, as he looked as his now tear drenched shirt. He began to walk away, before he felt his right hand being grabbed, stopping his movements. Sakura was looking at his through red eyes, with hope showing clearly in her features. Naruto just sighed, and turned to Sakura,
"Sorry Sakura, but we have a mission to go on right now, when we get back we can get something to eat. Ok?" Naruto was hoping that the pink haired girl would accept this, and he let out a sigh of relief when she nodded. She then turned, and ran off,
"Bye Naruto! Bye Sasuke! See you guys in a bit!" Naruto just began walking to his apartment once again, like nothing had happened at all. Sasuke then saw Naruto walking, and decided he would have a chat with him.
"Yo." He said as he walked up to Naruto. Naruto just turned around, and stared at Sasuke.
"What the hell do you want? I got to get ready for this mission! I can't be wasting my time talking!" Sasuke was really double thinking, his whole 'talk' with Naruto, since Naruto didn't seem to want to talk to him at all. He decided to go through with it anyway.
"Yeah well I guess I'll just get to the point seeing as your pissed off, and all. I wanted to know if you would be my sparring partner?" Naruto just raised an eyebrow.
"Why would I spar with someone as weak as you?" Now this got Sasuke pissed off.
"Teme! I could kick your ass anytime I want to!" Naruto just smirked,
"So you could beat me right now then? Cause if so then lets have a little fight." Sasuke froze when he heard this. He had, had no intention of fighting Naruto right now, but Naruto didn't seem to care, because of his little 'outburst.' Sasuke was about to respond, but then to Sasuke's relief Kakashi appeared with Sakura.
"So you guys ready to go?" Sasuke just nodded, while Naruto gave no response, but had a smirk on his face. Which Kakashi took as a yes, but then he noticed something. Naruto didn't have anything with him.
"Naruto, shouldn't you go get some things for the-" Kakashi never finished his sentence, as a Naruto clone appeared behind the original holding a bag. Naruto then took the bag, and began to walk towards the gate, where Tazuna was waiting for them. The rest of Team 7 quickly followed, and soon they were on their way to the Wave Country.
After walking for about twenty minutes, Sakura accidentally stepped in a puddle. Kakashi started looking around the surrounding area, while Naruto got that same bloodthirsty grin on his face. Sasuke noticed the change in Naruto's attitude, and was wondering what was going on, but guessed that there was an enemy of some sort nearby so he placed his hand on his kunai pouch ready for anything. Sakura was still delirious to everything going on around her. She was just looking ahead of her.
Then in a second Naruto was gone, which surprised everyone. Then a second later Naruto came flying out of a tree, with a strange looking guy, caught in a bear hug. Naruto however had a large cut across his face. Naruto however was still smirking. Then another guy appeared right behind Naruto, he looked almost identical to the first, and was moving at incredible speeds.
Kakashi jumped up to deflect the ninja, but got wrapped up by the weird chains wrapped around said ninja's wrist, and in a matter of seconds was ripped to shreds, falling in pieces to the ground below. Sasuke, Sakura, and Tazuna all stood in shock, before Sasuke charged at the ninja that had killed his Sensei.
"One down!" The weird man mumbled, once again going to help out the other ninja that was identical to him.
Naruto was thrilled that he was able to fight ninja of this caliber so soon, and wasn't going to let a moment like this get by him. Naruto however then realized something drastic. The claws that the weird ninja had, were poisoned, and Naruto could feel it effecting him already.
"Dammit! There's no way in hell I'm going to let you guys get away!" Naruto screamed as he threw the ninja away from his body, and quickly kicked him in the face sending him flying back down to earth. Sasuke saw this as a chance to get an edge in the battle, and threw a shuriken at the chain coming out of the ninja's wrist. The shuriken struck, and then embedded itself in a tree. Sasuke then followed it up with a kunai, which placed right in the middle of the shuriken, pinning the ninja to the tree, but also pinned the other ninja as well. Seeing as his chain was connected to the other ninja's. Naruto then saw this as a chance to take the ninja out. He charged over to them at incredible speeds, and kicked both of them in the face. The result was that one of the two got knocked out, while the other one had to take a couple of seconds to recover. The ninja that was still conscious detached the chain from his wrist, shocking everyone, and charged at Naruto.
Naruto, at this point, was starting to see double, because of the poison running through his veins. Naruto did see something clearly though. The fact that he was going to get hit…hard. Naruto thought of the only thing he could at the moment, and that was to take the blow, and attack back. So when he got stabbed in the stomach he grabbed the ninja's hand, and started to head butt him. It was the only thing Naruto could think of to do at the moment, and it was working. Naruto could tell from the blood running over the eyes of the ninja in front of him.
Naruto then let go, and stumbled back. He was about to fall when he was caught by Sasuke and Sakura. The ninja then fell on the ground, unconscious. Kakashi then came out, and tied the two identical ninjas to a tree, and then went to check on Naruto. Sakura however was shocked that Kakashi was even alive,
"Kakashi-Sensei your alive!" She yelled, and Kakashi just nodded.
Naruto was currently fighting the urge to lose consciousness. The poison was effecting him in the worst ways, and as of now Naruto was losing the fight. Kakashi ran over to Naruto after the ninja were tied securely to the tree. When Kakashi got there Naruto was smiling, then out of nowhere coughed up some blood. Sakura was crying heavily, and Sasuke's eyes were wide. Kakashi quickly started to treat Naruto's wounds, then he noticed it. The claws had been poisoned, and Naruto had got a large amount of it.
Kakashi quickly stood up, and placed Naruto on his back. "Sorry guys, but this mission is over. If we don't get Naruto to a hospital soon he's going to d-" Kakashi was cut short of finishing his sentence, by Naruto,
"Y-Yeah! Like hell I'm g-going to quit this mission! W-We're going t-to keep going!" Kakashi just looked over his shoulder at Naruto,
"Listen Naruto. I know you want to do this mission, but your life is in danger at the moment, and I can't risk it." Naruto just smirked, which surprised Kakashi,
"Kakashi I h-have The K-Kyuubi did you f-forget t-that?" Naruto said in barely a whisper using a huge amount of effort. "Just w-wrap up my s-side, face, and stop t-the b-bleeding, then I s-should be good." Naruto finally gave up, and lost consciousness.
Kakashi just sighed, and decided that he would listen to Naruto. He walked over to a tree, and set him against it.
"Sakura could you take off Naruto's shirt for me, while I get the bandages?" Sakura nodded, and walked over to Naruto. She was blushing furiously as she took off his shirt slowly, but it soon vanished as she saw the stab wounds in his stomach. She gasped as she turned to run over to Kakashi, but bumped into Sasuke instead, who had been sitting directly behind her.
"Sasuke!" She said in surprise. "We have to get bandages as soon as possible!" Sasuke just nodded slowly, "Don't worry Sakura, Kakashi should be bringing the bandages and second now." Then right on time Kakashi came over with the bandages, and his eyes widened at the extent of the wounds, but he quickly got over it and wrapped the wounds on his side. Kakashi then tried to wrap the gash on the side of Naruto's head, but found the angle was to awkward. So he just decided to wrap the bandages totally around his face, which in turn covered Naruto's eyes. This wouldn't be a problem for Naruto however seeing as he could still see with his right eye, but Kakashi didn't know that, and was still worried, but then just let it go as they started to leave again, but then Kakashi stopped them all. He then looked over at Tazuna,
"Ok I want you to spill it right now! I know for a fact that this mission should at least be a B-Rank, just for the fact that ninja attacked. I also could have killed those ninja instantly, but I wanted to see who they were after, and as I thought…it was you Tazuna. So…are you going to tell me, why you only paid for a C-Rank mission when this clearly should be a B, but more likely an A Ranked mission?" Kakashi said no emotion in his voice, almost like Naruto, but not as cold.
Tazuna just sighed, "The reason we didn't pay for a B or an A ranked mission is simply, because we don't have any money to spend. There was no way we could have ever afforded a mission of that rank. We could barely afford this mission. So I'm sorry for all of this trouble, but we needed help, and there was nothing else we could think of." Kakashi just sighed as he turned back to Sasuke and Sakura.
"So what do you guys think? You guys want to keep going or head back to Konaha…I mean this whole thing really doesn't concern us. On top of that this mission is clearly over our heads." Sasuke looked pissed off, while Sakura was just looking at Naruto.
Sasuke sighed, "I guess we don't have a choice…we have to go back, and forget about the mission. Naruto's health is more important then some stupid ass mission." Sakura just nodded, while Kakashi was shocked that Sasuke had been the one to say that they should head back.
Kakashi then turned back to Tazuna, "I'm sorry Tazuna-San, but our team is in no shape to be helping you out…so I guess we're going to be heading back to Kona-" Kakashi was cut off by the blond boy on his back.
"Bullshit! We finally have a mission that actually matters and there's no way in hell I'm giving it up, because of some poison, and a few ninja!"
Kakashi almost dropped Naruto from his sudden outburst, but in the end kept his grip. Sakura and Sasuke were in shock. Naruto was the last person they expected to hear from at the moment, and there he was giving his opinion.
"Naruto! Your alright!" Sakura screamed out running over to Naruto as he slowly got off of Kakashi's back, but not without Kakashi protesting first.
"Yeah I'm all better now…the poison was strong, but it wears off fast I guess, and don't worry Kakashi I'm fine now." Naruto said with a slight smirk.
Sakura however had to protest for Naruto's health, "Naruto, the poison might be gone, but your side, and face are still cut up. Besides you have a bandage wrapped around your face so you wouldn't be able to see anyway. So just let Kakashi-Sensei carry you." Naruto just chuckled,
"Don't worry about me so much Sakura I can take care of myself. Besides I've gotten used to not being able to see. So I should be well off like this." Sakura just nodded still terribly worried about the blond, while Kakashi sighed.
Tazuna turned, and looked back at the group, "So you guys are going to keep the mission?"
Naruto just turned to him, and with a smirk said, "Hell yeah we are! If there's going to be more ninja like those two then I want to fight them!"
Tazuna knew there was something special about this kid, he wasn't sure what was so special about him, but he knew it was something.
-Unknown Area-
"They failed!? I cant believe it! I thought you said that they would take care of these people!? I only hired all of you, because you said you were skilled ninja!" A short, fat, rich looking man screamed at an unknown source.
"Stop complaining." A tall man wearing, grayish blue pinstriped pants, black and white camouflage shin and arm guards, bandages wrapped around the lower half of his face, a sideways Village Hidden in the Mist Hitaiate on, and a large sword laying beside him, said. He was currently sitting on a couch with his arms and legs spread. The large man then reach for his sword, and picking it up one handed put it at the short man's throat.
"Don't worry I'll use this to thing here to kill them." He said no emotion is his voice at all. The short man backed away a little.
"Are you sure you guys are going to be ok? They have some strong ninja with them. I mean if they were able to take out the Demon Brothers then they must have some skill. Also on top of that they bested them which means that the ninjas will be on high alert." The short man noted still looking at the tall man.
"Who do you think I am?" The tall man asked, anger clear in his voice, "I Momochi Zabuza, was called The Demon Hidden in the Mist."
-With Team 7 and Tazuna-
Currently Team 7, and Tazuna were on a boat traveling through the waterways so they could get to the Wave Country. The mist was currently very thick, and everyone was doing their own thing. Kakashi was reading his favorite book of all time. Tazuna was currently talking to the man who was in charge of the boat they were in at the moment. Sakura was looking around, and was shocked at how thick the mist was.
"This mist is unreal! I cant see ten feet in front of me! No wonder this place is poor. No one would ever be able to find it." Sakura said to herself, even though it was out loud.
Sasuke was currently twirling a kunai around, hoping for some action, seeing as this was the most boring part of the mission so far. Naruto was currently looking all over the place. He was using his right eye to make out the outlines of everything. He was actually counting the fish that were in the water below him, but lost count when he got to about two hundred. He then looked over and saw something huge,
'Damn that is one big bridge! I'll give the old man some props, he is sure one hell of a bridge builder.' Naruto thought staring at the bridge.
"Wow that bridge is huge!" Sakura yelled out, and just then the owner of the boat turned around, and glared at her,
"Keep it down! Why do you think we're hiding in the mist, and rowing the boat instead of using the engine!? If we get caught we're going to be in big trouble!"
Sakura instantly stopped talking as Sasuke got an interested look on his face. Kakashi and Naruto however just turned, and looked at Tazuna. Tazuna exchanged the look, and just sighed for he knew what was coming next.
"Tazuna-san…Before we get to the shore I have some things I want to ask you." Kakashi stated calmly as Tazuna looked at the floor of the boat. "I want to know the people that are after you, and for what reason they're after you." Kakashi finished, still looking at Tazuna.
"No! It's better if you don't tell us!" Naruto shouted out with a smirk on his face. Kakashi looked over with a questioning look on his face, while Sakura and Sasuke just waited to hear him out. Tazuna however was completely in shock, he had never expected any ninja to back him up, when it came to not telling them vital details about a mission. Naruto then got that same insane smirk on his face, that was becoming a common expression for him as of lately.
"Ok! The way I see it is…well if we don't know who our enemy is or any vital information about the mission, then we have a bigger chance of having a good fight, because we would know absolutely nothing about out enemy!"
Kakashi, Sasuke, Sakura, and Tazuna just stared at Naruto stunned. What he had said made no sense whatsoever. They couldn't figure out why the blond would want to have a disadvantage in a fight, instead of the other way around. Naruto just seemed so sure about what he was saying it was actually kind of scary. That however was also becoming a much more common thing for Naruto. Kakashi just couldn't believe what he was hearing however,
"Naruto listen to me! We need to know as much information about the enemy as we can! If the enemy is in a whole different league then us, then that would mean we would know what to do if we ever encountered th-" Kakashi was cut off by Naruto,
"Yeah that's what ruins it! I want to be able to fight people without knowing if they could kill me in a matter of seconds, or if I could sweep the floor with them! That adds excitement to the fight!" Kakashi's eyes only widened. He was actually starting to wonder if Naruto was still sane. Maybe the poison was messing with his head, and he didn't know what he was saying.
"Naruto you sure the poison is out of your system?" Kakashi asked concerned. Naruto just smirked, and nodded. He then just sat down thinking to himself, while the rest of team 7 and Tazuna just looked at him.
Naruto then sighed, "Ok fine if you want to tell the others who's after you then fine, but I'm not listening." Naruto then covered his ears as Tazuna nodded, and began to explain.
"You see the man who wants my head, is a very well know Marine Transporter Billionaire." Kakashi nodded for Tazuna to continue, "His name is Gatoh." Kakashi's eyes instantly widened, but soon turned back to his old uncaring look as he almost always had.
"Wait do you mean Gatoh, from the Gatoh Company?" Kakashi asked curious, and to this Tazuna just nodded, but Kakashi then got a confused look on his face.
"What would he want with you?" Tazuna just looked down,
"As I said the Wave Country is a very poor place, but it wasn't always like this. Most people know Gatoh, but don't know however that he smuggles drugs, and contraband using ninja and gangs. He also takes over other companies and countries. About a year ago he set his sights on the Wave Country. He took over using his wealth, and his power from his money. He quickly took over the countries sea transportation, and anything else involving such things. As you may have guessed in a place such as The Wave Country Sea transportation controls everything, which explains why our country is so poor. The thing Gatoh fears however, is the bridge. Because if that bridge gets completed then The Wave will get contact with other places, which means that we could prosper once again, and he could do nothing about it. So naturally his target is the leader of the bridge construction, which is me of course." Tazuna finished with a deep breath.
"So that's why those ninja attacked us. So they could kill Tazuna-San and stop the construction of the bridge. It makes perfect sense now." Sakura stated out loud. Kakashi, Sasuke, and Tazuna just nodded. Naruto was really getting annoyed with not being in on what was going on, but decided it was better if he just waited until the conversation was over, because that way he wouldn't accidentally hear something important about the enemy. After about another twenty minutes of talking Naruto felt something hit him in side of the head. Naruto was about to attack whoever did it but then remembered that they hadn't touched his shoulder, but instead his head, even if it was rough, so he decided against it.
Naruto turned around, and uncovered his ears so he could hear what was going on again. He saw the outline of Sakura sitting right next to him, while Sasuke, Kakashi, and Tazuna sat on the other side. Naruto sighed as he pulled the bandages off from around his head so he could once again see with his left eye. He then saw Sasuke, Sakura, and Tazuna's eyes widen. Naruto got a confused look on his face, before Sakura blurted out,
"Naruto your cut is gone! How is that possible!? You just got it not to long ago!" Sasuke nodded in agreement along with Tazuna. Naruto panicked for about a whole two seconds before he calmed down, and smirked,
"Actually its still there, I just put a Genjutsu over it so you couldn't see it." Kakashi smiled under his mask at how fast Naruto was able to come up with a reasonable excuse. Sasuke however wasn't buying it,
"Ok then if its just a Genjutsu then release it so we can see the cut again." Naruto just sighed as the mark became visible again. Sasuke then nodded as the mark once again was gone. Kakashi was really impressed with Naruto now. He had just pulled off two excuses in a matter of seconds, and seemed like it was the truth. Kakashi however knew that when Sasuke had asked Naruto to release the Genjutsu, Naruto had actually done the exact opposite, and made a Genjutsu so the mark would be visible, and then when it looked as if Naruto had activated the jutsu again he was actually deactivating it. Kakashi was indeed thoroughly impressed, with his student.
The boat was now passing through a tunnel that seemed to appear out of absolutely nowhere, and was leading to a very bright light compared to what they were currently in. As the boat got closer to the end of the tunnel the light got brighter, and brighter until they were out, and what Naruto, Sasuke, and Sakura saw shocked them. The village they had just entered was unbelievably bright, and beautiful compared to just outside of the tunnel. It was almost like another world. The boat then pulled up to a piece of land, and the man stopped rowing,
"Ok, well this is your stop." Team 7, and Tazuna got off carefully, and thanked the man as he turned on the engine, and rode off into the distance. Tazuna then turned to the group,
"Ok, well take me back to my house." They all began walking along a path that was much like the path just outside of Konaha. Kakashi then sighed to himself,
'Man if those ninja's were Chuunin then that means that Gatoh will be sending Jounin level ninja next. This could become a problem.' Kakashi snapped out of his thought by Naruto throwing a kunai into a nearby bush. Naruto walked into the bushes, while everyone watched him, only for him to come out with a dead rabbit.
"Naruto! Why did you kill that rabbit! That was unnecessary!" Scolded Sakura. Naruto just turned around, and looked at everyone.
"Calm down Sakura. This is a snow rabbit, but there is now way there has been any snow here recently, and it hasn't even been cold enough for their to be anything close to snow. So it doesn't make sense that this rabbit is here. The only thing I can think of is someone used this as a-" Naruto stopped mid sentence as he grabbed Sakura and Tazuna to the ground, just as Kakashi did the same with Sasuke. Only about a second after Naruto and Kakashi had pulled everyone down a large sword flew over their heads, and implanted itself into a tree. Then almost instantly a large man appeared on said sword.
"The Copy Cat of Konaha of Konaha, Sharingan Kakashi. I guess I have some pretty good luck to meet you here." The man said looking straight at Kakashi.
Naruto quickly got up, and looked the man over. He then smirked evilly. Kakashi was about to say something to the tall ninja, but Naruto beat him to the punch.
"Momochi Zabuza. Out of all the ninja I could have seen on this mission it was you. I'm going to enjoy this fight a lot, I can tell you that much." Naruto said eager to fight a well know ninja.
At this comment Zabuza just smirked under his bandaged face.
"Well, I'm glad to know that I've become known in Konaha. That makes me quite happy I must admit."
"Actually no one really knows about you. It just so happens that I looked up some of the worlds current list of the world's deadliest Shinobi, and your name, and picture was in there. I actually don't think I've ever heard your name spoken in Konaha before." Naruto said thinking to himself, trying to piss Zabuza off…and it seemed to be working.
Zabuza was instantly behind Naruto his sword over his shoulder.
"You shouldn't talk to me like that gaki, I could kill you in a matter of seconds, and you wouldn't even realize you had died." Naruto was really smirking now, but his expression had changed to bloodthirsty instead of excited.
"You know what Kakashi, to set an example I'm going to kill this kid right now." Zabuza then raised his sword above his head, and in a matter of seconds Naruto has cut in half.
Sasuke, Tazuna, and Sakura's eyes widened as Sakura screamed, "NARUTO!"
Zabuza still had a smirk on his face until Naruto's body turned into a log that was split down the middle. Zabuza looking around for Naruto, but then felt something around his ankles, and in an instant he was flying towards a tree as Naruto popped out of the ground. Zabuza hit the tree so hard that it snapped in half. Naruto started walking over to Zabuza only for him to turn into water. Naruto was looking around until he caught site of the mist that was currently rolling in, and was becoming unbelievably thick.
"Naruto get back over here!" Kakashi screamed, Naruto however just chuckled slightly,
"Don't worry Kakashi, this is the type of fight I've been wanting. One that I can't not take seriously, because if I don't then I die."
"Naruto that doesn't matter right now! We need you to protect Tazuna-san! We cant complete this mission if he dies!" Naruto just sighed, and started walking back towards the group. He then smirked as he activated his Byakugan, and instantly found Zabuza. Naruto forgot all about what he had been currently doing as he charged right towards him.
Kakashi sighed when he felt Naruto's chakra signature getting closer, but his eyes instantly widened when he felt it take off in a totally different direction.
"Where the hell are you going Naruto!?" Kakashi screamed to his student, but no answer came.
Naruto was currently running down the path straight at Zabuza, but he was concealing his chakra signature so he wouldn't know he was coming, and then in a flash Naruto was on the ground. Naruto slowly got up, but still had that smirk on his face,
"HELL YEAH! THIS IS WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT!" Naruto screamed as he ran to where Zabuza's Tenketsu's were visible. This however took Zabuza by surprise big time. He didn't understand how this kid was finding him every time he went anywhere. Naruto stepped out into the clearing where he could see Zabuza. Naruto chuckled as he saw Zabuza's look of confusing, frustration, and annoyance.
Naruto had soon grown bored with the Byakugan, for one simple reason. You couldn't make it any better then it already was. With the Sharingan you could make it better, and it helped you out more in battle, so of course you wanted to get it to that stage so you used it more, but with the Byakugan…there was no reason. So Naruto decided he would make it so that he could activate it, and deactivate it so fast that nobody would be able to notice. After a while Naruto was walking around the streets of Konaha doing just that. He would walk up, and talk to someone and throughout the whole conversation being activating, and deactivating his Byakugan. Naruto could now activate, and deactivate the Byakugan at almost inhuman speeds. It would actually take someone with an advanced Sharingan to be able to catch him.
Naruto just kept walking slowly towards Zabuza. He smirked, and vanished right before Zabuza's eyes.
-With Team 7(Minus Naruto) And Tazuna-
Kakashi was trying to think of what to do. He knew that Naruto didn't stand a chance against Zabuza, but if he left Tazuna then he would be cut down almost instantly. Kakashi was deep in thought when out of nowhere he heard Naruto scream, "HELL YEAH! THIS IS WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT!" This made Kakashi relax some just because he knew as of right now Naruto was alive. Kakashi then decided on the only thing he would think of to do. He sighed as he made a hand seal, and then took off in the direction had run.
It didn't take long for Kakashi to reach Naruto, and Zabuza. Kakashi saw that Naruto was very much alive, but what shocked him ,was that Zabuza had a shocked, and confused look on his face, and actually a little bit annoyed also. Zabuza looked over at Kakashi, and smirked,
"I must say Kakashi this student of yours is impressive, not only does he have to makings of a ruthless killer, he is also a great tracker. I'm sorry to say however that the old man needs to die, and with that Zabuza was gone. Kakashi's eyes widened, and he looked over to tell Naruto something, but to much his surprise Naruto was gone. Kakashi just shrugged, and blew up in a burst of water.
Zabuza was running right towards the group of Genin, and the bridge builder, but he frowned when he saw Kakashi standing there. He then just smirked, and then another Zabuza ran out from behind him. This Zabuza however was running in the opposite direction of the first one, which in turn made a controversy for Kakashi. He didn't know which one to attack, because if he made a clone sure it would have a chance of getting the clone, but if it was the real Zabuza he would just cut right through, and keep going. Kakashi decided he would take the chance, and the another Kakashi ran out to meet the one that wasn't running straight for the original. Kakashi sighed as his clone got cleaved in half, and Sasuke jumped in the way. Zabuza chuckled, and lifted his sword, then swung down on Sasuke. Sasuke braced for impact, and also closed his eyes in the process. Something however shocked Sasuke…there was no impact. He slowly opened his eyes to see Naruto standing there in front of him blocking Zabuza with a kunai.
"Naruto!" Sasuke said in surprise. Naruto just turned his head a little, and smirked, then just turned back to Zabuza once more.
"Dammit just what are you gaki!?" Zabuza yelled, then Naruto with that same insanely sick laugh, just said,
"I'm a demon!" With that Naruto threw Zabuza away from him right into Kakashi's kunai. Kakashi had moved behind Naruto to help him out if he needed it, but Naruto had ended up finding a better use Kakashi's current position.
Just then Zabuza burst into water. Naruto and Kakashi's eyes widened as they looked around. Naruto activating and deactivating his Byakugan every so often. Kakashi then sighed, and lifted up his Hitaiate so it was revealing his covered eye. Naruto was in shock at what he saw,
'Kakashi has the Sharingan!? How the hell did he get it!? I know for a fact that he isn't an Uchiha. So how!?' Naruto screamed in his mind hoping for an answer. Sasuke was currently thinking along the same lines as Naruto, except he didn't know if Kakashi was an Uchiha or not, unlike Naruto. So he just kept wondering to himself in the shock of it all.
Zabuza's eyes visibly widened when Kakashi revealed his Sharingan, but didn't show it all that much. Kakashi began to walk towards Zabuza,
"Naruto as of right now stay with the group, I can take care of things by myself." Kakashi kept walking, but froze as Naruto appeared next to Zabuza, jumped into the air, and kicked him in the face. Zabuza went flying into a tree.
'What the hell! That gaki looks like nothing special, but he's fast as hell. I have to get serious with him now.' Zabuza thought as he stood up slowly.
Naruto who was right across from where Zabuza was smirking, he knew he was fast, but he had never imagined he would be able to move at this speed.
"Looks like the weights paid off after all-" Naruto stopped talking, and started thinking to himself, then continued, "I wonder how fast I would be if I took my weights off."
Everyone including Zabuza just froze, then the same thoughts all came to their minds,
'He's wearing weights!?' Naruto looked over, and saw everyone look at him in disbelief, and Zabuza actually had some fear shown on his face. Naruto just began to chuckle, and looked down at the ground.
"So…this is what it's like to be feared huh? I like the feeling…-" Naruto stopped for no reason at all, and then he looked over at Zabuza, with that ,now common, bloodthirsty smirk on his face.
"If your scared of me now then your in for a long battle, because-" Naruto then disappeared, and reappeared in midair behind Zabuza. "You haven't seen anything yet!" Naruto finished as he kicked Zabuza in the back of the head, making his face go towards the dirt below, but was stopped by a fist. That said fist had come from a Naruto clone that had burst out of the ground. Zabuza went flying up into the air. This time it wasn't Naruto, but Sasuke who appeared behind Zabuza. Zabuza was in so much shock he couldn't react in time, and once again was sent back down to earth. Zabuza hit the ground hard, but to everyone's shock exploded into water, but Naruto just smirked as he saw Zabuza running for Tazuna.
"Time to die old man!" Zabuza screamed as he ran towards Tazuna, with his sword raised above his head. When he was about to cleave Tazuna in half, he got a blow to the side of the face. He stumbled to the side, but was met by a kick to the other side of his head. Zabuza jumped up to see just what exactly was going on. Zabuza's eyes widened in shock as he saw about twenty Naruto's jumping up after him.
Zabuza then began descending back down to the earth, but his main concern wasn't the fall it was the twenty blond ninja's coming at him. Zabuza started avoiding the Naruto's and sighed in relief as he cleared the last one. He then looked down, and landed on the ground safely.
"Good try kid, but I'm to good for stuff like that" Zabuza said smirking, but to this Naruto just burst out laughing,
"You're to good for it? If you're so damn good then you wouldn't have forgotten about my clones, that are currently flying at you." Zabuza's eyes widened, as he hadn't thought about that at all. He jumped out of the way just in time, because as soon as he jumped all the Naruto's slammed their fists into the spot where Zabuza had just been. About fifteen of the clones, vanished from the impact. Zabuza then heard a clapping sound, and looked up. Naruto was clapping, with a smirk on his face.
"I'm impressed. I wouldn't have told you about the clones if I would have thought you would get away, but that was my bad." Zabuza frowned,
"You're impressed? You're not the one who's fighting a gaki that is fast as hell!" Naruto frowned, "You're only impressed by my speed huh?" Naruto the started thinking to himself before looking back at Zabuza, "Well if you want I can show you some more stuff." Naruto started thinking again as Zabuza instantly appeared beside him.
"You let your guard down!" Zabuza then swung his sword his full force down at the blond. He instantly froze in place…Naruto had stopped the sword by using the back of his hand, but it was bleeding pretty badly now. Naruto then just looked up at Zabuza,
"I don't really give a damn if I let my guard down, because you're done." Naruto then looked over at another Naruto running at Zabuza. Zabuza jumped back as his eyes widened with shock. The Naruto that had stopped his sword poofed into Kakashi, who was smiling under his mask. Then Zabuza realized it, he spun around, but was met with two fists to the face as he was sent spiraling back down to earth. Zabuza landed, and there was a huge dust cloud from the impact. After a couple of minutes the dust cleared, and revealed Zabuza holding Kakashi in a sphere of water.
Naruto silently swore under his breath at his bad luck. He channeled some chakra up to blow the mist away, and then he turned, and looked at Sasuke. To this Sasuke just nodded as Naruto took out a Windmill Shuriken from his backpack. He handed it to Sasuke, and then instantly Naruto vanished. Sasuke smirked as he opened the shuriken, jumped up into the air, and threw it at Zabuza.
Zabuza just watched everything take place, and sighed until the same shuriken turned into seven more. His eyes widened, as he started avoiding said shurikens. He dodged all of them up until the last one. He knew that there was no it would miss him, or he could dodge it. He then jumped out of the way releasing Kakashi in the process, as he grabbed the shuriken. It wasn't over however as Zabuza felt a kunai pierce his back. He groaned as he turned around to see a smirking Naruto standing on the water. Kakashi's eyes widened at this.
'He can walk on water!?…I really have to stop being surprised by things like this. Naruto does this all the time.' Kakashi then got back to his contact with the real world as Zabuza jumped away. Kakashi thought something up, and copied what he did exactly. They were both standing across from one another on top of the water, and Naruto was currently walking back to the land, because he figured that Kakashi could handle this part, and he had, had enough fun for today. The biggest reason however was because Naruto had a feeling some good jutsu were going to be used, and he wanted to copy them.
Zabuza started going through hand seals, and chanting them slightly, but to much his surprise Kakashi was doing the exact same thing, and making the exact same seals. Then they both finished on the seal for bird as two dragons came out of the water doing the exact same thing, but on opposite sides.
"Suiton, Suiryuudan no Jutsu (Water Dragon Bullet)" They both called out at the exact same time. Naruto smirked as he activated his Sharingan, and watched the Jutsu. After it was over, Naruto deactivated his Sharingan, and kept watching. After the water cleared Kakashi and Zabuza were fighting. Zabuza was using his sword as Kakashi was using a kunai. Zabuza started to think to himself,
'What the hell is going on! The Sharingan only copies moves as it's seen, but Kakashi copied my exact movements, and then activated the jutsu at the precise time that I did mine!' Zabuza was beginning to lose his nerve. Then at the exact same time they both jumped back. The landed across from each other once again. Zabuza started to run in a circle, and Kakashi then did the same thing. Zabuza then raised his arm, and put his other hand in front of his mouth to activate a jutsu, but just like everything else Kakashi copied it exactly.
'There's no way! He's copying my moves-' Zabuza was cut off by Kakashi
"Exactly." Kakashi finished the sentence for him.
Zabuza was becoming very nervous now, he couldn't believe what was happening.
'Damn Kakashi! He-' Once again he was cut out of his thoughts.
"Has such unpleasant eyes, right?" Zabuza's eyes stayed wide.
"You're not doing anything special! All your doing is copying me!" Then in unison with Kakashi Zabuza said,
"You cant beat me you monkey!" Zabuza's widened even more if that was even possible, he was losing his nerve faster, and faster. He started going through hand seals, and shouted,
"I'll make you never open that stupid copycat mouth of yours ever again!" Kakashi just copied him perfectly. Zabuza was looking right at Kakashi, until he saw something forming to the right of his body.
'That's!?…ME!' Zabuza screamed in his head as he stopped making seals.
Then Kakashi said, "Suiton Daibakufu no Jutsu! (Grand Waterfall)"
Zabuza's eyes widened in disbelief "W-What!? No way it isn't possible!" He screamed as water surrounded Kakashi, and exploded towards Zabuza. Naruto had been watching the whole thing, and was happy to say that he now had two new Suiton Jutsu. Zabuza was sent spiraling through the water, and the whole time thinking to himself,
'There's just no way! He did the exact jutsu I was going to do before I even did!'
The water was mashing through the forest all around, and was destroying everything it came in contact with. It all ended when Zabuza slammed against a tree, and was hit by some kunai courtesy of Kakashi.
"It's over" He said perched on a tree above Zabuza. Zabuza looked up at Kakashi,
"How!? Can you see the future!?"
"Yes, and your existence isn't in it." Kakashi responded.
Kakashi lifted his kunai to kill Zabuza, when two senbon came out of nowhere, and hit Zabuza in the neck. Kakashi's eyes widened as Zabuza's body went limp.
An unknown figure stood on a tree branch, and chuckled slightly
"You were right, he did die." Kakashi looked at the strange person, and then jumped down to check Zabuza's pulse.
"He's dead." Was all he said as he stood up.
"Thank you very much. I had been looking for an opportunity to kill Zabuza, but I couldn't find one. Until you showed up." The strange person stated.
Kakashi looked at the person, and nodded, "From the mask I'm guessing you're a hunter-nin from the Hidden Village of the Mist." The person just nodded, and moved over to Zabuza in a second.
"Now if you would excuse me I have to eliminate this body." Then the person turned to leave, but not before getting a kick in the face from Naruto. Kakashi's eyes widened,
"Naruto what the hell are you doing!?" Naruto just smirked,
"What Sensei? You haven't caught it yet? A hunter-nin is supposed to eliminate the body where it lies, no matter who else is around, but this one was going to take Zabuza's body. Which means that they had no intention of getting rid of Zabuza. They we're actually going to bring him back to life, because those senbon didn't kill him. They actually just put him in a death like state." Kakashi mentally slapped himself for forgetting the basics about hunter-nin, but knew Naruto was right about the whole situation, and once again Naruto let his genius show.
"So…-" Naruto said stepping up, "You ready to die!?"
