SevenKings with another chapter for the fic. I have to warn you that there's not much action in this chapter since it's a setup for the next one. What I can promise is that the next one is full of fighting that we can all enjoy since if you read the manga or watch the anime, we're reaching the Ma family dispute arc.

Chapter 5:Setting Up The Next Chapter


As I almost reached the bottom of the mountain that I was on. I hear voices from the distance; I decided to get close enough to see about twenty or so people. Using my training, I got close enough to overhear their conversations...

"Hey,Takashi?"

"Yeah,what's up?"

"You ever wonder why we're here?"

"It's one of Life's great mysteries,isn't it,Zero? Wondering if we are born randomly or if some higher-up in the skies made us with a Plan."

"The fuck you've been smoking? I meant why are we at the base of this mountain finding one single hermit and given no reason whatsoever."

"Oh that, I don't know. All I know is that I'm not paid enough for this shit but this gig is better than some of the other divisions. I mean, look at the Suicide Squad, there's something wrong with those guys."

I see a man that looked full of authority,"Attention!" When the grunts fell in line, the man continued,"You maggots have been chosen to reveal this man's existence to the world. You will witness what's happens here today and tell of it later except you won't cause we got you locked in a contract that says you can't say anything confidential or we'll shoot ya."

After some chuckling,the leader waved his hands down,"Alright,now that we got the jokes out of the way,listen up. Somewhere on this mountain hides a man said to have an old-school marital arts.

Our job is to find,contain and deliver him to our contractors, payment is twenty mil. Ten now and ten after the job's finished. Let's get our money,boys."

I slowly backed away, making sure to erase my tracks. Are they after the man who took me into his home? If that's the case, I must warn and help him. It seems I get to repay my debt to the man soon.


The philosophical jujitsu master rubbed his chin as he watched over his newest patient as he slept. By all rights, the Fenrir child should've been dead long before he was able to operate on him but the boy seem to cling to life as if it was his mother's legs.

He looked over the child's body and while impressed at his muscles; he could also find signs of old torture and malnourishment. To be honest, he thought examine the boy's body might yield some answers but it gave the master even more questions.

Who was the boy? Where did he learn marital arts? Was he apart of Yami by his free will or was he one of the people who was forced to by the same organization?

Sounds of curses could be heard from outside as Akisame opened a window to see that Miu's friend,Makoto as she was put through the most grueling training regiments he could think of to build her muscles quicker than Kenichi did.

"You people are crazy," Makoto screamed as her muscles burned from the exercise,"I can't do this anymore."

"Oh,"Akisame interrupted,"I thought you wanted to learn how to protect your friends."

Makoto shut up after that as she remembered her decision to training here...

Flashback

With her eyes slowly opening,Makoto Himeno looked around the room that she was in. It had a homely feeling to it even if it was bare of nothing more than a drawer,closet and the bed she now realized she was in.

The door slammed opened and her mother was ran in looking for something. When Makoto's mother saw, she instantaneously appeared there tightly hugging her daughter," My baby girl,are you alright?"

"Mom,could you please stop that, it still hurts," Makoto tried to wiggle out in pain.

Her mother then let go with a sheepish smile,"Sorry,Mako-chan but when I was told that you were injured. I couldn't help but be worried," before she took a more angry look," What is this about you fighting delinquents?"

"Mom,he was hurting other people especially a friend of mine," Makoto tried to reason.

"I don't care, you promised the only fighting you would do is in the arena after taking proper precautions. I don't want to think about you getting hurt like that," Her mother began to ramble about she didn't want her daughter to be a delinquent.

"I believe I have the perfect solution," a voice near the door spoke out. Makoto and her mother looked to see it was the doctor that she was told checked on her daughter's wounds,"My name is Akisame Koetsuji and I'm a doctor,chiropractor and a dojo jujutsu instructor at Ryozanpaku."

"Ah, Dr. Koetsuji, what do you mean?" Makoto's mother asked the man.

Akisame gave a smile,"It's just as I said, I'm an instructor for Jujutsu at Ryozanpaku where we have the best of the best in our fighting arts. If your daughter chooses to join our dojo, she'll be able to defend herself from nearly anyone."

"Is there any danger?"

"Danger is apart of marital arts, including Kendo but what we can do is make sure those injuries are done in an area where we can watch over her."

Makoto's mother sighed,"My daughter is a strong-willed woman however I can't help but worry. This is her choice so Makoto, what do you choose?" She looked at her daughter as the girl looked at ,"Is there any kendo here?"

The man shook his head,"We don't have any kendo but we do have Shigure Kosaka who is known as the Mistress of Weapons, do you wish to see a demostration?"

Flashback End

"Ahhhh," Makoto screamed as the flames underneath her burned the girl's rear when she lowered it during her daydreaming.

Akisame watched without a care,"That's what happens when you day-dream, don't let it happen again."

Makoto nodded her head,"Hai, Akisame-sensei," she re-positioned herself over the flaming pot.

The heavy door to Ryozanpaku opened and the Elder,Miu,Apachai and Kenichi walked through it. Originally, Akisame want to take Kenichi to the mountains to meet Yamamoto to learn how to use tactics but since he was needed to watch over their new disciple and the Fenrir child, who was still knocked out since he asked Kensei not to feed him potions, he couldn't go and had asked the Elder to do so in his place. Kenichi and Miu waved their hands,"Heya,Makoto."

Kenichi looked over Makoto's training regiment,"Wow, you're have been doing great," Miu's next words sent Kenichi in another one of his depression,"Better than Kenichi when he first started. In fact, I think you're about the same as Kenichi after one month."

"Is that supposed to make me feel good?" Makoto screamed,"Kenichi was known as 'Weak Knees around school."

Miu tilted her head,"One month was what Kenichi needed to beat Tsukuba."

Makoto widened her eyes; she knew about Tsukuba and she honestly thought that she would never beat him in a street fight if it got to that point.

Akisame was right behind Miu without a noise made,"As you are now, I would guess that you would be able beat this man if it Kenichi needed one month but with severe injuries. However, physical strength is not all you need in a martial arts fight." He then bowed to the Elder,"Good day to you, Hayato; was the trip successful?"

Hayato rubbed his beard as he laughed heartily,"I certainty think so; young Kenichi made friends with that boy, Naoki I believe his name was. How is Fenrir by the way?"

Akisame looked at the children,"You've done enough muscle training for the time being. Get off and enjoy a ten-minute break before going to your regular spot for training in weaponry,Makoto and for your karate training, Kenichi."

Kenichi didn't like the his fellow disciple was allowed to get a break while he was forced to constantly trained to which Akisame showed his telepathic abilities or the ability to know what's someone is thinking by saying,"Unlike you,Kenichi who has no talent or training in the marital arts before we pounded the basics into you. Makoto is familiar with training in her respective art that she can take a small break before getting back to training."

Hearing that he was talentless in the marital arts sent him on a depression. Miu patted his back,"There there Kenichi, just because you don't have any talent doesn't mean you can't replace it with training," bringing Kenichi back as he hugged Miu for her words.

Makoto sweatdropped as she saw this,'I think I know why Izumi isn't getting any love. I'll just have to play match-maker for a bit.'

Akisame pointed with his head,"Alright you kids, get going. I have to the Elder for a bit," with that said, Akisame and Hayato left for the Elder's office. Miu looked at her fellow disciples,"You want to found out what they're trying to hide?" Makoto nodded with Kenichi shaking his head,"I don't think we should do this. I mean, they're monsters when it comes to training but they're letting us off even if it is for a moment."

Miu bend her body forward a bit causing Makoto checking her bust size,"But that's what makes it even more fun,please Kenichi for me?"

Miu had her puppy eyes that Kenichi couldn't help but give in making Miu jumped in joy. Makoto glared in jealously and wondering how she could get Kenichi to fall for her long-time friend,Izumi. The three teens reached the door to the Elder's office and listened through the door.


Elder's Office

The 'office' as the Elder and Akisame like to call it was just a room where there were seven zabuton (a special cushion used to sit in the seiza position) and the floor was fitted with tatami mats. Hayato sat near the back where the five masters of Ryozanpaku sat with their sides facing Hayato and to each other. Akisame and Kensei were sitting on the left side of the door while Sakaki,Apachai and Shigure sat on the right.

Hayato raised his hand,"I now begin the Ryozanpaku Master's Meeting. The topic is the boy that fought survived against Apachai's kick. Sakaki, do you have any leads from the police force?"

Sakaki took a breath,"Nah, old man; whoever the kid is, he's a ghost. The cops don't have a single clue as to who he is which is already strange. These days, society likes to keep an eye on everyone meaning the kid's either good at being under-the-grid or he had someone's help."

Hayato nodded before looking at Akisame,"And what can you tell about his body?"

The philosophical jujutsu master closed his eyes," He's about sixteen,muscles are well-trained to the point that I know he was telling the truth that he was holding back when he fought against Miu and Kenichi. His body suggest that he was trained for quick-reactions and one hit kills but he could hold his own in a prolonged fight. Scars on his body and slight degradation to muscles also revealed torture and malnourishment. I believe we're dealing with a unwilling child soldier here."

Apachai tilted his head,"Like Apachai,apa?"

Shaking his head, Akisame elaborated,"No, unlike you Apachai who was raised to fight in the Muay Thai underworld; Fenrir was likely raised for one purpose and one purpose only... to kill."

Sakaki crossed his arms,"It would explain why the police and I got nothing on the kid. But that reminds me of something, one of the cops I talked to said he heard this rumor where a kid was going around beating up dojos for about two years. Thing was that he stopped about six months ago and became a street myth. Those who were defeated by this kid said he looked like one of those Californian Americans you'd see on TV and had the coldest eyes that shouldn't be on any kid."

Kensei added his own as he read a book upside-down,"Some of my chinese dojo contacts have talked to me about a kid with the same physical description had beaten them as far as two years old ago. Through they may not be master-class, they are still very good fighters."

Akisame had a white board with a marker in his hands, he drew for a bit before he shown it to everyone,"So here are the facts, Fenrir is around the same age as Miu,Makoto and Kenichi, up to two years ago was facing dojos leaving him to be about fourteen or so leaving about thirteen years unattended."

The Elder was twirling his mustache,"That not all; when Kenichi,Apachai, Miu and I were up to the mountains. Yamamoto told me that he once met a boy who help fight off a military group during wintertime two and a half years ago. He gave a description that sounds quite similar to a certain wolf we all know."

Shigure decided to add in something,"Still has...personality...most likely kidnapped and escaped...at puberty age."

Sakaki looked at Shigure,"If that's the case, wouldn't his parents file a missing persons report?"

Shigure shook her head,"Possible...they were killed...to cover tracks."

Hayato sighed,"So that means he has no one to guide him?"

"Easiest way...to hide...evidence...of their crimes."


Outside the Door

Kenichi was shaking; a killer, that was who Fenrir was. Makoto was grateful that she didn't die while facing against Fenrir and Miu felt something similar to the ninth Fist; both of them never had a normal childhood if what the master said was true. Miu looked at her two friends,"We're going to be friends with Fenrir and show him lots of things that he missed on."

Kenichi looked in alarm,"You can't do that,Miu. Didn't you hear them; Fenrir is a killer, he'll kill us all if he gets the chance. We should stay away from him as far as possible."

Makoto nodded,"I have to agree with Kenichi, there's still not much we know about him."

Miu glared at both of them,"You heard the masters, Fenrir probably never had a normal childhood. He had to fight to survive or he would die," Miu then walked away,"If you don't want to then I will."

Makoto watched before sighing,"What's wrong with her?" She then looked as Kenichi slapped his face,"What's wrong?"

Kenichi finished his face-palm and looked at Makoto,"I think she sees a little bit of herself in Fenrir. I was told that when Miu was little, she never really had much of a childhood since she trained in the martial arts. Because of that, she missed out on a lot of stuff."

Makoto shut her eyes,"Man, I didn't know," she then decided to run after Miu,"I'm going after her." Kenichi also followed her as a mouse then ran past in the opposite direction into the office.


Fenrir's Room

As Miu opened the door to Fenrir's room to check up on him, Fenrir was already out of his bed. He was naked from the waist up and Miu could see tattoos on his chest that originated at his stomach and then turned into lines all over his chest. There was a part of the tattoo that was scarred near his upper-right section of his chest.

The Ninth Fist was removing the bandages that were on him as and then looked around to see Miu still at the door frame. He suppressed his instincts of attacking and waved,"Hey,blondie."

Miu waved back with a smile,"It's nice to see that you're alright,Fenrir," Kenichi and Makoto knocked into Miu causing all three of them to bang in the door frame before jumbling into a pile of limbs. Fenrir raised an eyebrow as he looked around for his gloves in the room, they were a symbol of his status as the ninth Fist and he couldn't lose them.

The gloveless boy looked around as hard as he could until he concluded that his gloves weren't in the room. As he passed over the pile, a hand with a strong grip grabbed his ankle; he looked down to see that it was the Shirahama kid. Just as Kenichi was about to speak, Fenrir interrupted him,"I'm going to call you,Usagi (Rabbit) because you run like one."

Kenichi wanted to cry at the obvious reason he was given such a nickname before he steeled himself,"Why do you fight for Ragnarok?"

Fenrir didn't understand the question and Kenichi decided to elaborate,"With your strength, you could become a champion of justice and defend the weak and helpless. I don't understand why;there has to be a reason why you are using your strength for evil."

The ex-ROOT widened his eyes as he knew what the boy was talking about; it was so similar to the past him that he was sure that they would've been great friends,"The only reason I joined Ragnarok is for two reasons, to relieve my boredom and to have a purpose. Justice is overrated."

"Purpose? What greater purpose is there than defending those who need you?"

"Justice is such a loose term; justice to one man is injustice to another."

Makoto and Miu had managed to removed themselves and as Makoto dusted herself off, she mockingly replied,"I wouldn't expect a person who was raised to kill to understand defending."

Hearing a bit about his past froze Fenrir before he disappeared in a burst of speed then grabbing Makoto by the neck before lifting her up in the air,"Where did you hear that?" As the Kendo girl choked from the neckgrab; both Miu and Kenichi had managed to separate the two with Kenichi holding on to Fenrir. Fenrir back-headbutt Kenichi before turning around and grabbed the helm of his shirt and brought him face-to-face,"I'll ask only once more before I kill you all;where did you hear about that?"

"Oh,children such as yourselves shouldn't be using a word like 'kill' so easily," Fenrir looked to see a large man dressed in a casual kimono, a much smaller but still man without a shirt, a well-endowed woman, a man with pale white eyes that reminded him of the ten-foot-stick-up-their-ass Hyuuga Clan, a very small man and...

"You!" Fenrir saw the man who kicked him into the concrete wall. The man bounced up and down,"Apa, Apachai is Apachai and Apachai is sorry for kicking you into wall,Apa." Fenrir began to sweat, his trained instincts telling that these people were out of his league and they seem to know it. *Squeak* The ninth Fist could see a mouse on top of the woman's head squeaking angrily at him as if to include him in whatever it was.

The large man stepped forward,"If you would be so kind as to let go of our disciple," Naruto obeyed if only to gain time to plan his escape,"There's no need to fear us, in fact you could ask any question you want and we'll answer truthfully."

The boy decided to test it out to see if it was true,"Where am I?"

The man laughed as he stroked his beard,"Why, you are at Ryozanpaku; a place where real martial artists who have no patience for the modern trends of society." The man gave a look,"I didn't give an introduction on the people yet did I;the one without a shirt is the 100th-Dan Street Fighter Sakaki Shio." Said man gave a glare,"You and I have a talk to get to later."

"The man with pure white eyes is the philosophical jujitsu master,Akisame Koetsuji and the one who healed you up when you were injured." Akisame gave a bow as he was introduced,"Kids these days seem to have a lot of vitality if you're already up without one of Kensei's potions."

"The small man is the greatest Chinese Kenpo master you'll ever find,Kensei Ma." The man appeared next to Fenrir,"Can I interest you in some of my fine pictures?" To which a chain sickle flew at the two to which they both ducked,"The woman with the weapon is the Mistress Maiden of Weapons,Shigure Kosaka."

"Next we have the 'Death God of the Muay Thai Underworld' Apachai Hopachai, you'll probably know him as the guy who kicked you into the concrete wall." The man was on the ground as he bowed,"Apachai is sorry for kicking you into wall. Apachai hopes wolf man forgives Apachai."

"And then there's me, the master of the dojo, Furinji Hayato." At that, Hayato puffed out his chest in pride.*Squeak*,"And the mouse is Tochumaru, the best animal friend anyone can find." The mouse crossed his forelegs or was it arms as the creature had a smug look on his face. Fenrir couldn't help but wonder if it was a nin-animal like Kiba's Akamaru; that dog was a pain to fight alongside his owner. "Do you believe me now?"

Fenrir found no trace of lying from the man's words so he allowed his defenses to slightly lessen, even if he still didn't trust him,"Fine, now let's get to the big question; I'm sure they heard it from you so how did you find out?"

As Hayato explained the clues they found and solved, Fenrir couldn't be any more awed that this was considered simple to them. He looked for a way to escape and once he found one, he went for it but was grabbed by Hayato," There's no need to fear us, in fact we want to help you. The least you could do for us is to give your real name to us. It's hard to call someone Fenrir all the time."

Fenrir stepped back,"Thanks but I don't want any help. I'm fine with how my life is. Speaking of which, do any of you happen to know where my gloves and phone are."

Akisame removed them from a pocket on him,"Here you go, I kept them just in case." Fenrir nodded in thanks as he put them on, Kenichi then placed a hand,
"I wasn't done talking to you," to which he was immediately elbowed in the stomach by Fenrir who wasn't even looking. Miu looked at Kenichi as he was on the ground in pain with a knowing look,"I thought we went over this, Kenichi. You don't sneak up on people, it's a good way to get yourself injured."

Hayato laughed, and motioned the other masters,"I think we scared the boy enough, you're all free to go now that you have been introduced." Hearing that, the other masters decided to leave except Akisame. Sakaki and Shigure decided to picked up their respective disciples,"Let's go Kenichi, you've got training with me." Shigure nodded,"Let's go...Makoto."

Kenichi and Makoto screamed in fear as they were dragged leaving Hayato and Miu alone with Fenrir. Fenrir looked unimpressed,"So can I go now?"

Akisame placed a hand on his chin,"Fenrir has a clean bill of health, he's free to go whenever he wishes to."

Hayato nodded,"You can go after you give your name but I would rather you stay with us here at this place. If you do need any help, this place is always opened to you."

As Fenrir went to leave the house after saying his real name of 'Naruto', Miu called out,"I hope we can friends even if you're apart of Ragnarok, Naruto." He didn't respond to that and reached the front doors along with Hayato. The old man took a bow and pointed at the door,"See if you can open it."

Fenrir gave a weird look as he did try to open it, surprisingly it was heavy to the point where he increased his efforts to slightly opened it. Hayato was clapping at the feat,"You must be quite strong if you managed to open it to that point. I don't think Kenichi can opened it that far yet."

The ninth Fist was about to leave but not before Hayato gave a piece if advice, "Remember, our dojo is always open for you."

As he walked down the streets; he couldn't help but think about his life; is fighting all he wanted? Fenrir knew in order to survive in this world he needed education and that meant going to the day prison. What he was supposed to do now? He shook his head, he needed to fight something,anything to get his mind off what had just happened.

Fenrir took a look at his phone and saw plenty of miss calls from Odin; he knew it was going to be a pain but it was something he had to do,"Fenrir, do you know how long you were gone for?"

"I know, I was knocked out by a tan-skinned man who I'm sure was hyped on sugar."

"Oh, the big bad Fenrir was wiped by a man-child when he disobeyed orders."

"The man-child as you call him had enough power to kick someone into concrete from about ten feet away and say it's because he was hungry. Besides, I just woke up and I need to do something to get rid of the stiffness in my body."

"I'm just joking with you, you've done alot more than most of my Fists have done during the entire career so you deserve a break and it was also your first offense. But if you want a mission,there's still one gang left in the city but they're not important, just a bunch of misfits that don't have any fighting potential other than the standard numbers in a pack. You could also do me a small favor."

"What do you need?"

" I need someone to go to the 'Imperial Wrath of Chinese Restaurant' in Yokohama to meet a contact of mine who'll deliver some documents to you. I really need them by tommorrow afternoon at the latest."

"You do realize that I don't how to use modern transportation, right? I know that Yokohama is about an hour out and that's by these trains."

"I'll contact Hermit, he was going to Yokohama anyways and I was going to give him this mission before you called."

"Oh, and why's that?"

"Loki managed to gather some intel that Hermit's Chinese Kenpo master is going to appear in Yokohama tonight. Knowing him, he'll dropped the mission in order to search and I can't have that with these documents on the line."

"Alright, destroy gang first then meet Hermit at the train station to Yokohama, got it."

"I'm counting on you, Fenrir. Don't let me down, Odin Out."

As Fenrir was about to shut his phone, he saw a number that wasn't apart of his list. He checked the name like how Hermit showed him to and the number was under the name Ryozanpaku. He shut off his phone and then looked into the red colors of the setting sun; he couldn't help but remember a part of a song Saya would always sing to him as they slept in each other's arms in one of the bunker rooms...

Sotto... (Over...)

Shiroi ve-ru... (veil) (The Red Burning...)

wo kakete (And proud Flame...)

Hito wa itsuka (Everyone will...)

Hitori ni naru (Be left alone...)

Kioku ni kizamu (To engrave it in our memory...)

Itai kurai fukaku (So deep that it hurts...)

Fenrir grabs his chest as he looked down in tears. He should have died with her, then he would've never had this guilt on his chest; it was eating him inside before he decided to repress it. Saya wouldn't want him to beat himself up like this; she would want him to live free to do as he wished and that's how he was going to lived until he died.

The blonde looked back at the dojo behind him in the horizon. Usagi had the mentality that heroes existed; he would have to show him later that they never existed in the first place.


Ryozanpaku

Haruo Niijima was breathing deeply as he opened his PDA to Kenichi and a new possible recruit to the Shinpaku Alliance if she was training at the House of Yokai,"I've got some information on the Ninth Fist known as Fenrir."

Kenichi was actually hesitant but the knowledge on such a dangerous enemy and possible rival for Miu's heart drove him to ask,"What do you have on him?"

Niijima showed his PDA,"Get this, Fenrir was invited to join Ragnarok by the Fourth Fist,Loki but that's not the only strange thing. He was made a Fist immediately during his initiation."

Makoto was confused,"Wait, you have to do an initiation?"

The alien nodded,"There's only three ways to join Ragnarok;get an invitation from the First Fist Odin himself, survive what they call 'canonization' which is where they send their grunts to fight the person and they have to survive or fight back at a specified time and place, and finally the last way is to defeat at least half a gang before you're allowed to go down. Can you guess which one Fenrir did?"

Makoto was the one who answered,"Obviously the last one,stupid."

Niijima glared at the the crazy weapon woman's disciple,"That was a rhetorical question."

Said girl fired back,"And I gave a rhetorical answer."

As Niijima held himself back so to get report everything he could find,"Ignoring that, Fenrir's initiation was to defeat 'The Demon Parade', a gang even the police fear due to their numbers and dangerous actions such as firing Molotovs into people's homes." He held his PDA as he started a video,"Fenrir not only defeated them but sent at least a fourth to the emergency room."

Playing the video, which had a teen and a censor bar over his eyes,"Yeah, I was there when our gang fought Ragnarok or rather one single guy. He was a demon, at first we thought he was nothing more than an idiot that liked to jump on people but after a while, he started to change. It was as if we're fighting a bear or a shark. By the time I learned my lesson, it was too late for me. The doctors say I can never walk again and my right arm is paralyzed until I die. I should've listen to my mother about never joining a gang and that it would lead only to ruin for me."

As the video ended,"I also managed to find that Fenrir also has defeated other gangs with some of the more famous ones being the Knuckle Bombs, a two-man crew that fights anyone they can get their hands on, the Red Tails who are an all-female gang with their main base stationed in West Tokyo metropolitan, and the White Fang a group of delinquents whose actions can be considered terrorist in nature."

He then played another video, this time with a girl in it,"That guy was a monster;The Red Tails used every tactic and fighters they had and I'm certain he was still holding back." A third video with a boy with a white half-mask on covering the front of his face,"Fenrir is someone you don't want to mess with,nothing we did fazed him. Everything we did try, he returned double-fold with interest."

Kenichi began to sweat as he tried to figure how to fight and stop the man but the proverbial final nail from Niijima sealed the coffin,"And he defeated them all by himself with only light injuries when he faced against the leaders." Makoto was going to say,"I'm not surprised since he's a ki..." a chain appeared and tied Makoto's mouth as she was dragged into the shadows.

Niijima,seeing this, immediately ran for the door but not before looking back at Kenichi,"Whatever you do, don't fight this guy. You were lucky that the demon (Apachai) kicked him into the wall when you fought at the school. In fact, you should just sic your masters onto him," he gave his advice before running away.

Kenichi then thought to when he first truly talked to Fenrir,'Justice is such a loose term; justice to one man is injustice to another.' Was what he was doing harming someone? He used to think that good was good and evil was evil but seeing how Takeda-senpai became a delinquent after doing something good for a friend and the small talk he had with Fenrir, he didn't know how to proceed.

That was until Akisame threw the thinking boy into the courtyard where Apachai was waiting for him so they can practice Muay Thai.


Gang Hideout

Fenrir was sitting on a pile of people from the patheically weak gang that he had just crushed in under five minutes. The boy looked at his right hand before jumping down from the pile. He then smacked a nearby concrete pilar and destroyed it. Fenrir looked down at his hand which was as fine as ever. He could feel his chakra circulatory system was active but it wasn't chakra that was flowing through it.

This energy felt rough,wild; almost as if it wanted to explode out of his body and destroy everything in it's path. He would experiment with it later when he had the time but now it was time to head for Yokohama.

Fenrir was slightly excited, who wouldn't be if they get to visit someplace new. Perhaps he'll find someone other than blondie that would be a challenge to him.


Ryozanpaku

At the desk in his personal room, the Elder was having a fun time as he read over some documents on his desk. Fenrir or rather Naruto was going to have a big surprise later tomorrow morning or evening, depending on whenever the local law enforcement find him. Miu was coming into his room while still dressed in an apron,"Grandfather, dinner's ready and you know Apachai's stomach can't handle the waiting."

He replied back to his granddaughter,"I'm coming Miu, just have to put away some papers," he later put all the papers in a folder that said,'Furinji Naruto' into a desk along with a piece of paper that said,'Bill of Fifty-five thousand yen to Fenrir'.


As I finished off the last member of the group that was here to kidnap a man, the same person who gave me a place to stay had reached the place where I had ambushed the mercenaries. He looked at the destruction that I had wrecked upon the men,"Why? Why would you cause such pain and loss of life?"

"They were here to kidnap a man," I replied back much to the man's shock.

"You still didn't answer my questions, why?"

"I always repay my debts; I simply don't tell people I'm going to repay my debts too." With that said, I decided to carry the bodies as far away from the place as possible since I don't know if predators were on the mountain.

A strange device on a man's back that I had killed began to ring, I wondered what it was and pawed at it for a bit before a part of it fell off. I looked at it as a voice began to scream,"When you hear the ring,you're supposed to pick up retard."

I stayed silent until as the voice from the device continued to scream obscenities,"I know you can hear me since the receivers on, answer me!" I decided to continue being silent and eventually the device stopped talking.

When I was done, I can see the man and a boy younger than me as they packed everything, the man saw me and gave a nod,"I don't like the way you handle the mess but I'll say thanks to helping me and my son."

I gave a nod and repeated what I had said,"I'm just repaying my debt to you. I just don't tell you when I repay my debt." With that said, our paths separated and we walked in different directions.


Done, we screwed with the timeline even more by having Makoto as a disciple of Ryozanpaku. I kinda felt for Shigure for not having her own cute little student to teach and this was my way of rectifying that. Makoto won't have much to do for sometime since she started late but she'll have her shining moments.

Good Bye Good Night Good Luck
