warning: this chapter contains alot of OCs so do your best to remeber whos who
The morning sun arose signaling the first day that Naruto and the gang became guests of the Nanuko. When Naruto woke up he noticed that his usual clothes had been replaced with black trunks and dark blue shirt with an orange konaha symbol on the shirts upper left section. There was also a note on it saying
Dear new guest, Here is your new clothing so the crew may identify who you are.
Your host - Oduta
Naruto got dressed and headed out to grab some breakfast when he got out of his room there was an empty hallway with multiple doors in it each door having the 11 shinobis names on them. Another door opened further down the hall and out came Hinata in a black t-shirt and trunks with a yellow konaha symbol on the upper right section. "Good morning hinata how did you sleep?" Naruto asked as he grinned and waved at her she replied looking down at her fidgeting fingers "um . . I . . ah. . slept . . . well . . thank you."
An hour later when everyone was awake but still in their rooms a whistle was heard all over the ship and after that Odutas voice was heard saying "Breakfast is ready in the galley. Get there before theres no food." Naruto was the first to come bursting out of the door followed by the rest of the boys. Neji came out with a white shirt simialr to his original one and black trunks with a white symbol on the upper left side of his shirt. Kiba had a black shirt with his gray hoodie over that and a gray symbol on the center of his shirt and Akamaru had a sash with a gray symbol on it. Chouji was in a green shirt and black trunks with a purple symbol on his upper left side of his shirt. Rock Lee was in a black jump suit similar to his regular one with a green symbol on his gray belt. Shikamaru had on a black shirt and shorts and a white symbol on his upper left side of his shirt. When Shikamaru came out he was bulldozed by a stampede of hungry ninja leaving him on the ground twitching in pain.
Akabi was slowly walking down the hall and saw Naruto and Neji helping up the trampled Shikamaru "I see you were caught in the stampede. Its completely natural for them to do that which is the reason I walk slowly to the galley. If you want me to I can show you where the grub is." the guys waited there until the girls bursted out of their doors one at a time. The first to come out was Tenten with a black shirt with a pink stripe from her left shoulder to her right waist and a pink symbol on her upper right side. Ino came out with her usual outfit but it had a blue symbol on her upper right side. Sakura had on black trunks and a dark blue t-shirt with its sleeves torn off and just like the rest of the girls she has a red symbol on her upper right side. When they were all set Akabi lead then to the galley and showed them to their table which had a reserved sign on it as well as food.
Everyone was eating their breakfast with smiles on their faces when everyone became quiet due to Oduta entering the room with his first mate Zulo right behind him. He walked into the center of the room to give an announcement "Well everybody I hope you all like your breakfast. The reason I came down was that since we have robbed a ship two days ago I am proud to say that you all did a splendid job and that you have earned yourselves some surface time." once he said that everyone cheered like crazy "Kabor Tanamachi Hikuru take us up." Kabor was blind due to a cut across his face which left a scar. He wore an army green shirt with white sleeves and army green lining with dark blue pants and black hair. Tanamachi was very muscular wearing a non-sleeved brown shirt with metal shoulder pads a blue belt and black pants. Hikuru was a red haired ninja who was completely covered in bandages including most of his face with a few of them having writing on them and a seal on his left hand. The three left the room and went to the top floor where the cruise ship used to be. The three once again went into the form of a triangle and performed a jutsu that sent the ship up to the surface as well as removing the chakra shield around the spikes jutting out of the ship. The captain walked out onto the top of the ship to examine if the coast was clear then gave to signal to come up which lead to yet another stampede of ninjas and Akabi and the guests walking out last with Shikamaru being carried because he was once again trampled "glad to see youve made the guests comfortable here Akabi. And I also see that Shikamaru has gotten trapped in the stampede." he said as he gave out a snicker and left to enjoy the scenery.
"How did you guys come to find such a ship Akabi?" Neji asked
"I was recruited when this ship was already made but Oduta said that his original crew built from ships that were destroyed and added chakra to make it airtight and submersible and with more and more recruits coming on board he made it even bigger." the gang then also scattered on the deck to enjoy their day.
Neji Tenten and Rock Lee were walking about when they saw two females twins to be exact one with her brown hair in a ponytail and the other with her hair blonde let loose. Both wearing a blue and red tanktop with jeans and a weapon scroll chained to their wrists like bracelets. Tenten noticed the scrolls and thought she could make some chatter with them and left the two boys she was who were just staring at the two twins with their mouths open. Tenten came walking up to the girls interrupting their conversation "Hi there I couldnt help noticing that you two have weapons scrolls. Are you two weapon specialists?"
The two girls stared at each other as they saw that she wouldnt leave without an answer so the pony tailed girl responded "You could say that but the reason we use weapon scrolls is because we don't want be carrying around our weapon all the time."
Tenten then said "You guys only have one weapon?"
The other twin responded this time "Yes and we have mastered that weapon greatly. Captain Oduta tells us to keep our weapons on us at all times so we put them into a scroll." the two then showed her the scrolls strapped to their wrists "Oh and one more thing. Could you tell those two to close their mouths." tenten turned around to see Neji and Rock Lee still caught in a love stare at the twins
"Neji!!!" Tenten yelled as she was searching for a weapons scroll which she couldnt find.
"Here you go." the twins both gave her a kunai from their pouches for her to use.
"Thank you. Now where was I? Oh yes. Neji!!!" Tenten started chasing after them prepared to kill them if she ever caught them.
"Lovely chat don't you think Arin?" the pony tailed twin said to her sister
"Yes I do believe so Tari." she said as the two gave each other a high five.
Naruto was enjoying the horizon when he felt a hand on his shoulder "Well if it isnt my favorite chibi." the voice said with a little giggle.
'Please don't let it be her. Please don't let it be her. Please don't let it be her.' Naruto thought to himself as he turned around to see who it was and sure enough it was Donicara "Hey there." Naruto jumped back telling her to stay away from him "Well thats no way to treat a lady now is it." she said while giggling again. Donicara walked closer to Naruto making him edge back into the ships railing making him even more nervous about being turned into a chibi again. Donicara leaned in close enough to almost kiss him but instead of that she said "boo" which then threw him over the railing and into the ocean.
"Cute kid. Man overboard!" which made every one come over to look over the railing.
"Naruto!" Sakura said as she saw the blonde ninja drifting further away from the ship. The man who had turned into a bird the other day had ran up to Donicara seeing Naruto in the water.
"Do you really have to make me work today?" the man asked her as she responded with a smiling nod "Women." he jumped into the water and while he was in midair he turned into a creature with multiple fish characteristics and began swimming towards Naruto with great speeds under the water.
"What happened to that guy?" Sakura asked herself.
Donicara responded to the question "That is Omarabis bloodline his clan has the abitlity to transform into either part fish or part bird but never both. Luckily when he became a crew member on the Nanuko the captain gave him the ability to transform into both." Omarabi came swimming back with Naruto behind him and threw him up onto the ship then jumped up himself staring at Donicara.
"Don't let me catch him in the water again or youll be swimming for him." he said in a gurgling voice as he walked away while at the same time changing back into a human.
Sakura ran to Naruto in aid "Naruto are you ok?" "Yeah im fine thanks to that fish guy." he looked up to see Sakura and Donicara standing right behind her with a smirk
"Yes naruto are you ok?" Sakura looked around and saw the girl with a smile on her face.
"If you ever do that to Naruto again I swear I will kill you."
"Thanks Sakura but I can stand up for myself you know."
"What did you say!" showing a large amount of killer intent and instilling fear into Naruto.
"Um nothing. I said nothing." giving him time for her to calm down and walk away but not without one more evil stare at Donicara.
"Cute girl. You dating her?" Naruto jumping up onto his feet waving his hands back and forth trying to say that they werent then ran away from her. "Men."
Hinata was leaning on the railing while watching some of the boys playing around on the deck when Kakashi came up and stood by Hinata "Why arent you in the game?" Kakashi asked her
"Well . . they have enough players and . . if I join it wont be."
"Ah I see."
"Arent you supposed to be in your cell?" Hinata asked in concern.
"No hinata the deal was that were to keep en eye on me so I don't pull anything. I can still go about just like you can."
"Oh." Naruto came out of the game asking Kakashi if he wanted to join the game.
"No thanks Naruto I just up to get some fresh air I need to head back down." after he said that he walked away and down to the lower decks leaving Hinata by herself.
A little while later a brown haired ninja the same age as Hinata wearing a green shirt and black trunks and with three spikes strapped to each one of his arms each spike was bronze silver gold diamond emerald and ruby. "Whats a girl like you sitting around all by yourself for huh?" the boy said making Hinata blush
"I . . uh . . am watching the guys play." Hinata says nervously.
"Not to sound rude or anything but whats with yours eyes? Ive never seen eyes like yours."
"All of my clan has these eyes. Its because of our blood limit, the byakugan."
"I have heard of that clan. The Hyuuga right?" Hinata nodded her head in agreement. It was quiet for awhile with the boy just standing there next to her "Whats your name?" the boy asked
"Hinata. Whats yours?"
"My name is Miharo. So hinata um . . are you doing anything tonight."
"I don't think so why." Miharo was rubbing the back of his head
"Well I was wondering if youd like have dinner with me up here tonight." Hinata widened her eyes in nervousness then looked away to cover the blushing "um Hinata. Are you all right you look like youre coming down with a fever."
'What to do I like naruto but miharo is so cute. I know! ill say yes and see how it goes tonight that way I know who is better for me.' Hinata planned in her head then turned around to look at Miharo who was waiting for an answer patiently "O-ok . . that will be all right. Thank you."
"No problem. Ill see you at dinner time then." Hinata nodded while at the same time blushing even more. Miharo was walking away while thinking to himself "YES! YES! YES! I GOTTA DATE TONIGHT!"
Time flew by quickly while on the Nanuko that day leading straight into a sunset dinner. All the gang was dining with each other except for one Hinata who was dining with miharo at a candle lit table for two nearest to the sunset. "Wow" Hinata exclaimed "You pirates can be . . um . . very romantic." she said blushing right after the statement.
"Why thank you Hinata. How do you like your lobster madam?" Miharo said as a if he was the most polite gentleman in the world.
Hinata replied "It tastes great Miharo."
"I caught them myself you know." just then a slap hit Miharo on the back of his head
"You didnt catch anything now quit lying to the lady." Omarabi said walking away with a line of fish being carried on his back.
"Ok so I didnt really catch them but I did set the table for you." Miharo said with a smile and rubbing the back of his head. Hinata put her head down to hide the blush then continued to eat while Miharo gazed at her.
Else where on the ship was a lonely Sakura staring out at the ocean into the beautiful sunset 'Its just so beautiful tonight.' she said to her self when everyones favorite blond ninja came walking up to her. "Hey Sakura what you doing?" Naruto asked her 'Naruto why did you have to ruin such a good moment!' Sakura was yelling to herself then replied
"Oh nothing just enjoying the sunset." Naruto remained quite for awhile then said "Um Sakura"
"Yes Naruto?"
"I just wanted to say thanks for trying to help me when I was thrown back up on board. That was really nice of you."
"Well then your welcome." Sakura turned back towards the sunset which Naruto did as well. "Wait a minute." Sakura said turning back to Naruto now "What do you mean by trying. I did help you against that girl!" Naruto backed up with his hands in front of him for defense
"Well what I meant was . . um . . what I was trying to say was . . that . . you . ." before he could think of something else to say sakura placed her finger on Narutos mouth signaling him to be quite then gave out a giggle
"Just shut up and enjoy the view ok?" she removed her finger and once again turned back to the sunset leaving Naruto stunned and still staring at her. Finally he gave out a sigh and watched the sunset with Sakura.
The sun was down now and every was sitting around with lanterns at their tables. Oduta came out of the ship and said "All right everybody back inside." which lead to a large groan from everyone as they slowly walked down the stairs into the ship "Take us down boys." as he then walked down with the rest of the crew.
Naruto decided to stay up on the deck and asked Tanamachi "Hey! Can I stay up here and watch you guys?"
Tanamachi looked at the other two who just gave him a shrug as to tell him "Why not" Tanamachi looked back at naruto and said "Sure kid just don't get in the way ok?" Naruto ran to the side of the railing and sat down with an enormous grin to see how they did it. The three got into their formation each performing different and unique hand signs. Finally after about 20 signs a shield of chakra formed around where it usually did. Water then began to come up the sides of the ship and finally covered the shield entirely underwater making narutos eyes widen to the max with amazement "Cool site huh kid?" Tanamachi said as Naruto silietly nodded his head while gazing at fish swimming by the shield "Come on kid lets head down." and with that the four of them went down the stairs went off to their bedrooms.
Down in the ship Miharo was still going on his date as he walked Hinata to her room. "Um . . thank you for walking me Miharo." she said continuing to blush.
"The pleasure was all mine Hinata."
They continued walking down the hall when Hinata asked "What made you join the Nanuko Miharo?" Miharo looked down in shame to this question. Hinata was about to apologize for the personnel question but miharo didnt mind answering it.
"I came onto this ship 2 years ago. My family was as happy as could be when I was just a baby . . . until he came along. My brother Tiro he was everything a parent ever wanted he was perfect in every way. Ever since he showed up he got all the attention and no matter what I did my parents wouldnt even give me a hug for it. One day I finally had enough of it and ran away never to be a burden to them again."
Hinata thought to herself 'the poor thing. Hes kinda like naruto now that you think about it.'
Miharo continued with his story "I was wandering around from village to village when I got onto a ship heading to the moon country. The ship was attacked by the Nanuko and thats how met Oduta. He gave me these spikes to aide me in battle and with his help I have become one of the highest in rank aside from Hikuru Tanamachi and Kabor." Miharo stopped walking and gave a huge smlie "And one day ill become the next captain of this ship!"
"He really is like naruto! Lonely as a child. Meets a new family and friends. Then he wants to be a leader!" Hinata then said out loud to Miharo "I think you will make a great captain Miharo." she says as she kisses him on the cheek and walks into her room "Good night Miharo."
"G-g-g-ood night." Miharo replied being shocked by the kiss. When the door shut Miharo walked back to his room 'YES! I GOT A KISS FROM A BEAUTIFUL GIRL! YES!' he thought to himself as he danced with joy.
At the captains quarters Oduta was sitting at his desk singing a little song "Being a pirate is all alright to be! Do what you want cause a pirate is free. You are a pirate!" just then a knock on the door was heard "Come in." Zulo walked in and stood in front of the captains desk
"You called for me sir?"
"Yes. How is our friend Kakashi doing?"
"He has been on heavy watch and went up to the top of the ship only for a little while. He is now back in his room and the time lock has been placed on it."
"Very good. By the fifth day I want you to let him roam free without watch. I have a feeling that that will be a fun day for everyone."
"Yes captain."
"You are dismissed." Zulo left the room leaving the captain to his things. "When that day comes hopefully we can defeat them." says to himself as he stared at the location of his hidden safe.
