Chapter 5
00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
Zabuza was bored, having both his arms broken left him stranded and in care of Haku, who for some reason took her time to bring him more of those pain killers. He could take the pain as he had worse, being trained in village that only let the strongest survive forged him in to weapon that would not dull so easily. But the pain was still there and it started to be irritating. "Gōzu, Meizu get here now!" Zabuza shouted as if to none but his command was quickly executed, if only half way. As only one of the twins appeared from the shadows. Swordsman of the mist was getting more and more irritated by this. "Where is Haku and Meizu?" He did not try to hide his angered tone which made it clear that if Gōzu only thought about lying the consequences wold be painful.
"I don't know where Haku went but Meizu said something about more training as he was greatly angered after those Konoha nins almost captured us" That wold sound right, as Meizu was the hot-headed one from the two and being defeated by those tree huggers even left him angered. "Find your brother and send him here and then go find Haku" He didn't care if he cant find his brother as he knew that if he had one of them the other wold always return. As even if they wouldn't admit it they had bound that was strong even if they came from village that trained them to not care for feelings as those things made shinobi weak.
And even if he did say he believed in those teachings he cared deeply for his student as she was as his own little sister that he never had. He was not really good it this emotional crap as he needed to gather more allies and resources to kill that damn Mizukage and his army. But then again he was extremely worried that Haku would end her life as she saw her self as failure because of her defeat at that stupid blond and Uchiha. After seeing that blond enraged he could see what caused Haku's defeat. The brat was jinchūriki and considering the attack on Konohagakure by Kyūbi no Yōko ( the nine-tails) ten years ago which left the shinobi village greatly weakened but also left its leader Minato Namikaze also know as Yellow Flash of the Leaf for his signature teleporting technique that even after so long no-one else managed to replicate.
That would also explain brats lack of training as most villages hated the containers of the tailed beasts as if they were the beast it self. Haku had no chance against such opponent as even an enraged young and not really trained jinchūriki wold give even Anbu ranked shinobi like him great struggle to defeat. But then again if he did mange to injure the host, the beast inside wold only keep regenerating its prison and giving it more power till the beast wold eventually took over its host body and after that...it would get really ugly and he didnt want his most trusted servant to go suicidal just becose she defeat opponents that he send her to kill. With heavy sigh he closed his eyes and listened to quiet but still hear-able footsteps that he heard thanks to his advanced senses as shinobi.
"Looks like Meizu finally arrived, now only if Gōzu was as fast and find Haku before she hurt her self" He thought to self. His eyes quickly widened when he noticed something was wrong as he could sense more than one person coming and their chakra sources even if hidden were not from his servants for sure. After years being hunted by other missing nin mercenaries and hunter nins from his own village. "I may be injured but those bastards wont have it easy" With that he made him self stand and made his way to the doors. Kicking it down as his arms were kind of useless he made his way to where they stored some of their weapons. Looking at his bandaged arms and other bandages that were all over his body (his arms mainly) he only chuckled to him self and continued his way to arm him self. (Get it?)
"At least now it will more of a challenge" With his thoughts he grinned and already made many plans how to make his hunters lives make as much as pain-full as he could.
00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
Finishing the chapter Kakashi placed the book in to his pocket and slowly made his way to the hotel where the Lightbringer some of his troops now occupied. Most of Uther's people stayed at other buildings or were still on their ship mainly the small but broad ones called *Dwarves* and the really small ones called *Gnomes*. That not human thing still confused Kakashi to no end as they said that they came from land that was supposed to be to the east, from large continent that last time he checked was not there as only thing that was to east from Land of Fire was just Land of Water and smaller islands. Their weapons were technologically more advanced than those of Konoha even if their swords were not made from metal that would let chakra channel trough it, but those *guns* as they called them were a real mystery, the dwarves didn't wont to tell him much about their design for now. It looked as if they would only sell him the information. Not really caring that much about it they only given him short version. "Yer gotta just dump some powder ere and then just get get yer bullet and aim it at them. If yer lucky thou and did it right gun will hurt yer enemy and wont explode in yer hand." As the he thought back to words with that heavy accent of theirs.
Passing around another of those temporary places where the villagers let their saviors sleep he noticed that he was being followed."Not again..." He thought as he turn around to see well hidden but still visible for him figure that could only be that troublesome elven woman that kept following him and asking questions in her strange kind of way that left him running away from such conversations as he had other things to do than to answer her question that were mainly on how his *magic* works. "Human" He could hear her voice from the dark alley she was currently hiding in. "Here we go again" With heavy sigh as he tried to look as much polite as he cold so he smiled at her way (even if his face was hidden under his mask). " I saw you making your way through the town alone, in way that suggested that you go to house where Lord Uther currently resides, am i wrong?" She said in that monotone voice of hers that made him think of his certain black haired student. "Well yes Uther send one his guards to me and asked me to see him" Hatake replied to the elven women in front of him who he noted was the same woman who talked to the Lightbringer before the fight.
She did forgot to mention her name as he only knew her last name that he heard from Uther at the bridge. "LORD, you mean, i recommend you use his title as i do not think someone as him would consider someone like YOU as his close friend." She spat with venom in her tone that made him wish to simply ignore her when she first started to talk to him. "He's not my lord as you know, i have my own lord to folow. Im not saying im not grateful to him and you but Uther did not mind when i left out his title in our talks so i dont see why should i continue to do so." Smiling at her he only scratched the back of his head as in nervous gesture and put his other on his waist. Seeing her blue glowing eyes in that murderous glare and her face red with anger made her look kinda cute. "Nah i'm not going that way again." Seeing as that she didn't have anything else to say Kakasi turned and continued on his way.
Noticing that the elf was now following he could not do much about it so he let her stalk him some more.
"Thats kind of creepy now that i think about it" Was Hatake's last thought as he approach the guards that were at main entrance of hotel.
00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
What Kakashi did not know was that Uther was long gone at the other side of the town with three of his men and apprentice of his nemesis. Uther now out of his armor wearing much lighter leather armor with his hammer on his shoulder continued his way through abandoned docks of the town. Taking glance to his soldiers he could see their uneasiness as they made their way through dark alley that was not even lighted by lamps in this parts as most of the lamps worked only at the populated parts of town and even then there were only few, leaving unknown dangers that could came from darkness unseen. With quick prayer to the Light he continued through streets following the girl to who could be their new ally or enemy. And for the girl sake he hoped for the first.
00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
"Finally, after so long the traitors will be brought to justice for their crimes against Mizukage" Said Ritzu to his team as they managed to track down the Demon of the Hidden Mist. "Squad Leader! There is a group of unknown people approaching from west side of the docks, one of them looks as one of our own but it looks as if his/her mask was damaged, other four of the group that follows him are some kind of military group as their armor and weapons are too well made for them to be simple mercenaries. Your orders?" The Undertaker squad leader did not know what to make from this as it could be one of last squads surviving member that was separated or most likely only survivor of his squad.
But he was not born yesterday so he quickly thrown that out of the window as only a naive fool would think that and world Hunter nins like him did not recruit fools in to their ranks. The survivor was most likely bait or some kind of a trap to get in their backs while they fought back the traitor and his underlings. Having injured one of them that led them straight to Momochi who was still injured from his last fight as their sources suggested.
But even traitorous rat like him would still fight to the end and being extremely dangerous individual with former rank of Anbu he could not take his even if crippled state lightly.
There was only slight problem, his squad that was made of five people him self included was made from one Jōnin (being that him self), three high Chūnins and one mid Chūnin.
This was caused because of the rebellion that started to provoke civil war in Land of Water as great number of skilled Jōnins turned traitor and supported the rebellion against the Mizukage which left many ninja to fill their empty positions. Many children was forced to enter academy sooner as they needed more troops to fight the rebellion. Mizukages theory that only the strongest survive was good in Ritzu's eyes. So even if his squad members were under ranked for their position he was sure they made things that in let them be hand picked by Mizukage to get to Undertaker squad as some people called the hunter nins as they left no evidence and did not stop till the target was declared dead.
"Take and Haru and investigate if they prove to be allied our target dispose of them" Mori noted and quickly disappear in puddle of water with both his teammates doing same. Ritzu was left with Shota who was currently looking at the one of entrances to the building that their target was hiding at and Kan who was observing the other one on the other side. He knew that those were not their actual names as every operative was given new name with each mission his own included. He needed to act quickly as Zabuza would seance them for sure by now. "Shota go to Kan and inform him to proceed with the attack. When you are in position signal me, do not by any means try to take the main target on your own, dispose of his underlings but leave the swordsman to me" Shota only nod in silent reply and did same technique as others to get to his teammate as soon as possible.
"I hope you are ready to face the Shinigami Momochi as tonight i will send him to him personally"
00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
After finding his twin brother Meizu who was currently still training as he could not get over the fact that they were defeated so easily by hands of Kakashi Hatake and his Genin team, even he him self who was always considered to be the calmer one of the two was enraged. Having luck that Hatake left them there they managed to get from their bounds and after some time escaping Konoha's Anbu which was extremely difficult task for two Chūnin to accomplish , they managed to get to their leader who to their shock was greatly injured and then heard new of Gatō's death which not only left them with no pay but also stranded as Haku insisted that they need to let Momochi rest as his body suffered greatly from the wounds that were still healing from the fight in forest and the new ones after the bridge.
He didn't have anything against Haku but this time it was great risk as they could not stay too long at one location with injured Zabuza and no real base of operations as the old docks were not that large and were too obvious as he told them numerous times because they were all Water Release usersand being near water could provide quick escape. On the other side there wasn't better place as on other side of town were those newcomers from beyond the sea and most importantly Hatake and his squad.
Finally founding the after his long search, as she kept her chakra levels at minimum making it hard to detect her.
But she wasn't alone seeing four more figure outlines that had chakra levels on par with civilian, but then again they could be hiding it as Haku did to prevent detection. Gōzu was sure that Haku wold never betray Zabuza but seeing her with these unknown figures made him slightly question it as he knew Momochi did not order her to meet up with some people, on the contrary he gave her direct order to remain out of sight. Well this left only thing he could think of he needed to ask her. With that he made his way closer to group.
00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
"One of my allies is coming our way" Haku told her companions who were following her closely behind. "Is your ally trust worthy?" Asked on of the men that was on left side of Uther who was directly behind her."I wold ask the same as last time i was informed your allies were some kind of mercenaries" Said the Lighbringer who had the armored women on right the armored man on left and that small bearded man with strange barrel like weapon behind him forming a protecting circle that she noted was great idea as she noticed another well hidden chakra sources one coming behind her friend and other that was now getting behind them, most likely to trap them in this small alley.
"I spend great time training with him and his brother, so i know that he can be trusted" Haku replied no turning back to not let the enemy nin know she knew about his position. "But there are two other's that are most likely hostile, beware as those are not simple mercenaries as you fought on the bridge" To her last sentence Uther laugh lightly. "Not to insult you young lady but i was fighting demons and orcish hordes before you were born" With that Lighbringer turned to his soldiers under his command and started recitating words that sounded as prayer, as he finished she could see faint glow on his hands as well as book on his side that he tightly griped at start of his silent prayers. She could feel strength that was not her own to he aid.
Gōzu took this opportunity to confront them, water came from a roof top that formed in to puddle which started to make Gōzu's shape. "Haku who are they? Zabuza told you to not let our position be discovered." He sounded angry and from the look of his masked face he was. Haku wanted to tell him her motives but there was no time.
Being turn to them Gōzu did not see pair of kunai that were moust likely coming for back of his head and hearth.
Seeing them however Haku quickly thrown her self on Gōzu making him fall.
Not knowing of the hidden danger, Gōzu's eyes widened as he mistook her actions as attack. He was about to bring fist to side of her head when he heard two metallic clanks and after that light thud as he could see the two strangers protecting the man in middle with their shields. On ground he could see two objects that would most likely mean his death if it wasnt for Haku.
Seeing the shock in his face Haku didnt spare time with thank you and that other stuff as she could now feel great chakra surge that wold only mean that jutsu was being executed. "Stay close to me!" Were her words as she started quickly going trough hand seals. She had to make it quick as the enemy justu were coming from both sides, using both hands to make process faster as she could see great torrent of water coming their way and could only guess that same way was coming from the other side.
Having the justu finished in nick of time she could feel the force that slammed in to her ice globe shield. She noted that the justu enemy used was strong, but not strong enough. Noticing Gōzu who was now on his feet, checking his large metal gauntlet weapon and its retractable shuriken chain to be sure he's ready for battle, she made quick glance to see her other companions also readying for battle. The small man stuffing something in to his barreled weapon, Uther again recitating now with his book open before him and this time the words were pronounced out loud and Haku noticed that he wasnt the only one speaking. "Holy light protector of all that is good, please land us your aid so we may protect those in need, as we would do all we could, to protect the innocents in this world" That certainly sounded as prayers did that mean the man's power came from some kind of higher being? The chakra was pure energy coming from nature and human body it self. The human race managed to figure out a way to manipulate its powers or at least that was what her master taught her.
Her thoughts were disturbed as she see Uther finishing his prayers with other three and made his way to her. "From what Hatake told me you use range weapons, Am i right?" He asked her with smile on his face as if ignoring that there were what looked to be strong enemies that if she was right there are are at least two that are high Chūnin level, she knew from Zabuza that the new hunter nins tend to not be as strong as they used to be and she thanked kami that for that as if it was two Jōnin they would be most likely dead before she managed to detect them .
She her self and Gōzu were about mid Chūnin but that was only a guess as she never was to academy and Gōzu had Chūnin promotion at the same day as his brother but that was when they were both eighteen and now they were twenty five...
But for some reason she did not feel as if they would fail as when Haku looked at the now slightly glowing man she could feel hope radiating from him as if assuring her of their victory. Now knowing why he was smiling as it was to give her hope and not let her fall in to despair that she forgot hunter nins used as their main ally, she smiled her self and replied. "Yes, i use senbons. Their small design allows me to use quick attacks that are harder to see and kill instantly if any main vital points are hit." Hearing that Lightbringer smiled even more as he motioned to the armored women on his right that moved to him without question. "Breana you will go with Haku and her friend, protect them with your life as they are both needed to complete our current mission, but try not to get your self killed either" As he finished the large women named Breana saluted and made her way to Haku.
Uther then partly turned around and continued. "I will leave her at your care try to not injure your self as even if do posses gift of healing that the Light granted to me it has its restrictions, good luck all of you, may the Light guide you to victory" as he finished Haku's new bodyguard spoke. "And you as well m'lord" The man nod to that and made his way to his other two soldiers to face the enemy on other side.
