DISCLAIMER: DON'T OWN Naruto EVEN IF I WISH FOR IT TO BE SO. SUCKS.


2. The Zoldyck Squad


The next day, Kakashi had given his genin team the bell test and after a few mishaps, Team 7 had passed (mostly thanks to Naruto really. He then dismissed his team and headed for the Hokage Tower to report about his team passing. He also knew that he would be shocking the others as well.

When he arrived, Asuma, Gai, and Kurenai were already there. He sat next to the female jounin and nodded to the others.

"Status of your teams." Hiruzen spoke up.

"Team 10 passed."

"Team 8 passed."

"TEAM GAI HAD PASSED WITH BEAUTIFUL AND COLORFUL FLAMES OF YOUTH!" Gai answered in the usual way which made the others sigh.

All others turned to Kakashi.

"Team 7 passed." The one eyed jounin said and the room went silent.

It probably would have lasted longer if not for the appearance of a familiar black cloaked Team. Kakashi's eyes widen in shock. He had only heard of the team but he had never seen them at all. At that very moment, the Zoldyck Squad (bar the Captain who was simply sitting down like the Sandaime) was kneeling in front of the Sandaime.

"Zoldyck Squad reporting, Hokage-sama." Spoke the Captain of the most feared squad in ANBU.

Well, the Zoldyck Squad was above ANBU. They were the Hokage's personal assassination squad and were even higher in rank than the Shinobi Council members. From what Kakashi knew, the Captain of the squad was called 'Killua'. He was the Captain and was ranked SSS-rank with a flee on sight in the bingo books of all five countries. He was a trained enforcer and his kills would put all three generations of jounins to shame.

"What is it Captain?" the Hokage asked.

"Danzo's ROOT has been extinguished and all have been disposed of properly. Danzo is now with Ibiki and awaiting your orders for him. The civilian council will now be losing the only power card they had permanently." The masked Captain reported.

The Sandaime nodded seriously and turned to the masked female, Alluka.

"Alluka, what do you suggest for Danzo?" he asked her.

"Have Danzo speak with Captain Killua. Ten minutes is all that is needed and Danzo will sing everything he knows." She answered confidently and this made the Sandaime chuckled.

"Indeed. Very well, Killua. Extract all important information from Danzo before you behead him for treason. Anyone of the civilian council who opposes, drag them to T&I for questioning. Who knows how deep Danzo had rooted himself in the other's minds." The pun was obvious. And if the situation wasn't heavy, the jounins would probably laugh at it.

The four masked nins bowed and jumped out the office window and vanished, leaving the four jounins staring in awe and shock. Kakashi managed to recover faster since he had already seen the squad a few times when he was still in ANBU.

"Dad—" Asuma began but was cut off by the Hokage when the old man raised his hand.

"If you are going to ask who they were, Kakashi can explain it to you while I write down the order for the squad to retrieve later on." Hiruzen said and the other three turned to Kakashi.

"The masked and cloaked nins were the Hokage's personal assassination team: The Zoldyck Squad. They are four of the best yet darkest ninja's of Konoha. They are swift, quick, and quiet. You won't know what had happened until you are dead or dying. Depends on their mood as rumors say. Illumi, the one with the zombie like expressionless face mask and long, jet black straight hair is the closed combat fighter of the group aside from its Captain. In a taijutsu spar with Gai, Illumi may look smaller but he will break Gai within the first minute. Illumi's tai-techniques often leave his opponents at Death's door, begging for them to be taken out of their misery and Illumi will not grant them their wish and just leave them to bleed to their deaths." The others listened well.

"Milluki, the big one with the chubby cheek face mask and short black hair. He is the intel of the group and has been noted and rumored by other villages to be the reason why the old Mizukage, Yagura, had been defeated. Somehow, Milluki had gained access to Yagura's files and information on anything and everything about the Hidden Village of Mist and it was only discovered when Yagura was on his way down to defeat." Asuma swallowed hard.

"Alluka, the only female of the group, the one in kimono and short black hair and stoic mask like the rest. She is the member with a Kekkai Genkai that surpasses the Hyuuga's Byakugan and the Uchiha's Sharingan combined. No clue if it is better than the Mangekyō but it is proven that her Kekkai Genkai will beat both Kekkai Genkai's any day of the week hands down. Aside from that, she could beat me in a spar and I won't last five minutes with her if she gets serious." The three who were listening couldn't believe what they were being told. It was too good to be true.

"And the last one?" Kurenai asked and Kakashi stiffened a bit.

"The last one with white shaggy hair and stoic face mask was the captain, Killua. A master of all eighteen shinobi ways. That being alone can wipe out the whole ANBU if he felt like it. And if he seriously wanted to do so, he would be able to defeat about a dozen of SSS-rank nins of the Lightning Country… At the same time. And it won't even be a task for him. His strength is still unmeasurable and his skills in planning are beyond the best of the Fire, Water, Earth, and Wind Countries combined. He is that good." Kakashi finished as he sighed and leaned back on his seat.

He didn't exaggerate when he explained to the other jounins just how strong the Zoldyck Squad was. And it was evident on their faces that they understood why Kakashi had frozen when he saw the squad appear earlier.

Those for alone could have killed them if they got irritated.

Hiruzen, as he was listening to Kakashi explain to the other's about the squad, he was biting his tongue to stop himself from laughing and telling them that the Zoldyck Squad wasn't his personal assassination squad. They were the Godaime's personal squad and the Godaime himself was the Captain of said squad. Why the blond insisted that they play this whole game both amused and frustrated Hiruzen. He was supposed to be resting, not doing paper work. But then again, as the charade played on, Hiruzen was entertained and felt no little to almost no pity for the village for how they were behaving towards the person that should be praised and loved for protecting them from the Kyuubi's wrath and revenge.


Jason: For those who didn't recoginize the name: they are the Zoldyck Family from Hunter X Hunter, Killua's family of assassins.

Illumi- Rock Lee

Milluki- Akimichi Chouji

Alluka- Hyuuga Hinata

Killua- Namikaze Uzumaki Naruto

They're masks are that of the faces of the Zoldyck family and their normal everyday hair color and styles were merely genjutsus. The real hairs were the one Kakashi explained except for Naruto as he will always have sunshine blond hair. The white hair was a genjutsu.
