The week was up and Kakashi was expecting Zabuza to show up. "Now, is everyone ready?" Naruto and Samui hardened their gaze and nodded. Sasuke smirked. Karui and Omoi nodded as well and Sakura nodded her head slowly. "Good, now Naruto. Stay here just in case Gato sends someone here. I wouldn't put it past him to take hostages."
"Hai Sensei." Naruto replied. Samui turned to Naruto, both their eye's meeting. Naruto gave her a cheeky grin, Samui returned it with a small smile.
"Yo yo, let's get this show on the road, let's show Zabuza why he shouldn't mess with me, the killer bee. At the end everything will be fine, just like the relationship between Samui-san and ." Kirabi rapped.
Both blondes blushed at the comment but didn't respond. Karui shook her head in disapproval of the rap. Team 7 and Team Bee left the house, leaving Naruto behind. After 10 mins since the group left Naruto, the blonde has two low presence making their way towards the house. "Inari, Tsunami, head downstairs. We have company." The two nodded and went down the stairs. Naruto opened the door and there were two thugs standing there. Both of them eyed Naruto and looked behind, searching for something.
"Kid, where's the woman and the brat that lives here? If you don't talk, there will be punishments." Naruto smirked and Kuruma snorted.
"Funny, I was going to say the same to you if you don't leave now." Naruto responded.
"Your funeral, brat!" the thugs charged Naruto but in a blink of an eye. The blonde disappeared and reappeared behind the thugs. Gato's men stop running before falling on the ground, with blood coming from their necks.
Naruto smirks while twirling his sword. He looked down at the thugs and swiped his sword to get the blood off. "Stay safe you two and Inari, you're the man of the house."
"I got it nii-san." Inari responded. Naruto smiled and ran towards the bridge in a blinding light.
Sasuke was supposed to be an elite, the strongest amongst his peers. Yet he couldn't defeat the false hunter nin who had him trapped between ice mirrors. Damn it all."
"You should've never denied her help." Haku said, looking at the Uchiha. The blonde kumo nin offered her assistance but sasuke flat out denied it, saying he could handle it. Samui decided to leave him be and save him if his life was in danger but she thought it would be after last night.
Flashback:
Samui left Tsunami house to look for her new friend. 'That face he made… I never want to see that again. I will make sure he'll never feel any pain.' Samui thought to herself as she continued to search for Naruto. She found Naruto leaving the area and a girl left behind but her chakra felt like the hunter nin. Samui approached the girl before she walked too far. "Stop, I know you're the hunter nin from before."
Haku stopped and turned to Samui but the kumo nin was surprised to see her crying with a smile. "Good evening, I wish you no harm."
"I know, you could've attacked Naruto-kun. Why?" Samui asked.
"Because he understands true strength. To fight for someone you care about. He's too kind to die. The world needs more people like him, someone who can love and not hate no matter the situation, someone to guide this world to a better light." Haku said.
"I agree, I felt something about Naruto. His chakra is warm and …safe. In his eyes, he shows the strength to go far no matter the outcome. I can't help but want to protect him." Samui said.
"I see." Haku gave Samui a warm smile. "You are falling for him just after a few days of knowing each other." Samui blushed but kept her straight face. "I feel the same, someone who understands my pain, the loneliness and still has the strength to protect the people he cares about and the people who wronged him. I would do anything to be with someone like that but I will not betray Zabuza-sama. He saved me when I was alone. Would you like to hear my story?"
Samui nodded and the two girls conversed about their past together.
Flashback end:
Samui was sad for once. Even though Haku was an enemy, the connection felt the same as Naruto's. She understood why Haku was doing this and it hurt Samui that one of them could die today. "I guess it's your turn." Samui turned her gaze towards Raiga, one of the seven swordsmen of the mist, then her gaze went towards Omoi and Karui, who was on the ground.
"Are they dead?" Samui asked with anger rising.
"No, I decided to give everyone a funeral together. It would be more peaceful and beautiful." Raiga said with a smirk.
Samui narrowed her eyes. "If you want a Funeral so much, I'll be happy to give you one." the kumo nin said before drawing her sword. "But it won't be beautiful." Samui charged her blade with white lightning.
"Hmmm, interesting. You are definitely stronger than the other two." Raiga said but Samui didn't respond. "So cold." Raiga charged his Kiba blades with lightning and ran towards Samui, who mimicked his action and when they met in the middle, there was an explosion of lightning.
Sasuke was exhausted. He was able to activate his Sharingan but it was barely helping him. He hated to admit but he could use the help. "It seems you regret your decision. You realize you can't defeat me on your own. Your taijutsu is useless while I'm in the mirror. Your ninjutsu is ineffective and weak. You don't seem to possess any genjutsu. Just surrender."
"I will not. I'm an Uchiha and I will not let anyone get in the way of my goal. I.." Sasuke's eyes widened before he was unconscious. Haku was surprised, not because of Sasuke passing out. No, it was because Naruto was here. He stepped out of a mirror made of light?
"Dumbass, he was clearly exhausted." Naruto said before tossing the Uchiha through the mirror. Soon you could hear Sakura screaming Sasuke's name. "How are you doing Haku-chan?"
"I'm fine but I was hoping not to fight you." Haku responded.
"Then don't. You could surrender and we could go kill Gato." Naruto offered.
"You know I can't. Zabuza-sama will be my own." Haku said with sadness in her voice.
"Fine, have it your way." Naruto just stood there with his hands in his pockets. "But I'm not going to hurt you."
Haku narrowed her eyes and threw some senbons from all directions at Naruto. Naruto surrounded himself with a sphere of light and the senbons bounced off. "That won't work."
Haku was quiet and relaxed in the mirror. "Naruto-kun, you must defeat me."
"Like I said, I'm not going to hurt you." Naruto responded.
"Fine.." Haku turned around, which confused Naruto. "Then I'll kill the old man and the pink hair girl."
Naruto grabbed his sword and glared at the ice user. "You wouldn't! You hate to kill."
"Like I said, I'll do what I have to for Zabuza." Haku responded.
"But we're friends." Naruto said, and started to cry a bit. "I know we only met once but we understood each other. You're not a bad person, you can help save the country by giving up."
"Sorry, but I can't betray the person who saved me. I admit that I care about you, Naruto-kun." Haku said before taking off her mask, revealing a crying face. "And it does hurt to have to fight you but I'll do what I must."
"Fine." Naruto responded and surrounded his ninjato with light. He sped forward and sliced at the mirror Haku was in. Haku went into another one but was surprised when the Ice was sliced in two. "I will save this country Haku, no matter what! I have something to protect and that alone makes me stronger."
Haku smiled at that. "I know and that's one of the reasons I admire you. But I have my resolve and that'll push me to do what I need to do." Haku threw some senbons at Naruto again but Naruto disappeared in a flash of light and reappeared in front of the mirror Haku was in. Naruto sliced through it and Haku flew out of it and tried to stab Naruto with a senbon but it was blocked by Naruto's sword. Haku smiled at Naruto. "I knew you were strong but your at a disadvantage."
"Really? How is that." Naruto asked.
"One, you only have one hand available. Two, we're surrounded by water and three, I'm able to perform jutsu with one hand." Haku said, going through hand signs with one hand.
Naruto smirked. "Cool, I like this game." Naruto said, going through hand signs with his free hand, surprising the ice user. "Koton Yaris!" Naruto made spears made of light.
"Mizu haris!" Haku created water needles. Both jutsu surrounded the two and were sent towards them. When it landed, it caused a explosion
Samui swung down at the swordsman but he easily blocked it. Samui then saw Raiga charged his other blade with lightning. Samui pushed off Raiga's chest before raiga shot lightning towards the Kumo girl. Samui used her lightning sword to block the attack but she was pushed back a bit. Samui smirked, she had to admit Raiga was strong. "That was a cool attack but I can do something similar." Samui charged lightning through her sword and swung at Raiga, sending a lightning slash towards him.
Raiga sent a stream of lightning towards the attack, creating an explosion. "I'd hate to kill someone with talent like yours but I got a job to do. I'm glad neither one of your sensei's sensors didn't see me come in."
"Why fight me and not go for the bridge builder?" Samui asked.
"It'll be less honorable and plus, I don't trust Gato. That said, I do love giving funerals. Also if I killed him, I wouldn't be able to fight you at your fullest since you would have no reason to stay."
"I see, well I have to thank you for that. We would've failed if you killed him. But now you will die." Samui said.
Raiga laughed and combined the end of the sword hilts and started to spin them as his body was covered in lightning. "I will end this soon, with so many lightning attacks, they will figure out I'm here soon."
Samui sighed. "I wanted to save this until I practiced this a bit more but I have no choice. So uncool." Samui said as she pointed her tanto towards the sky and shot lightning towards the clouds. Soom the lightning came back down and struck her. Samui gritted her teeth through the pain as her body was covered by lightning but it looked different from Raiga lightning armor.
"What's this?" Raiga asked.
"Your death.." Samui said as the lightning disappeared but her appearance changed.
Naruto and Haku were breathing hard. Naruto had to admit that Haku was strong and skilled. He enjoyed fighting her and wished he didn't have too. "Your amazing Naruto-kun." Haku said from within the ice mirrors. "You're able to do one handed hand signs and you're the first person to destroy many of my mirrors but you're a threat as well."
"I'm not, I don't want to hurt you. But you leave me no choice." Naruto said, sheathing his sword. Naruto started to absorb light until a bright sphere surrounded him. "Kudakeru Hikari!" Naruto released a light explosion, destroying the rest of the mirrors and sending Haku flying in the process. When Haku looked up, she saw Naruto's blade pointing at her face. "Please…give up."
"I do…"Haku said standing up. "And now you must kill me. I'm no longer useful to Zabuza."
"WHAT?!" Naruto yelled. "No, I just said you were my friend." Naruto protested.
"He's right, Haku-san." Both shinobi turned to see Samui approach them with burn marks on her but what Naruto noticed was the Kiba blade she had strapped to her waist. "You're not a tool, think about yourself."
"I see you defeated Raiga." Haku said. Naruto was confused.
"Raiga? One of the seven swordsmen?" Samui nodded.
"Affirmative, he secretly attacked my team while our sensei was fighting Zabuza but I was barely able to beat him." Samui informed her fellow blonde.
"Wow, you're really strong if you were able to beat someone like him. Samui-chan, you're amazing!" Naruto said. Samui kept a straight face but you could see a small blush.
Haku smirked until she felt something from a distance. "Samui-san, please take care of Naruto-kun."
"Haku-chan? What do you.." Naruto was cut off when Haku smashed her lips against Naruto's. Naruto's eyes widened but unconsciously moved his lips.
Haku pulled away and turned to Samui. "Take care of him. He's all yours now." she said before disappearing in an ice mirror. Naruto snapped out of it and looked around. "Haku-chan?" He closed his eyes to sense and felt her presence near Kakashi. "Samui-chan, follow me." Naruto said before running towards Haku.
"Hai, Naruto-kun!" Samui said before following her fellow blonde. After running for a few seconds, Naruto and Samui arrived at a horrible sight. Haku-chan/san!" Both blondes yelled when they saw her impaled by Kakashi's raikiri.
Naruto disappeared and grabbed Haku and hugged her in his arms. He tried to heal her with his light but then he realized. "She's been struck through the heart. S-she's dead." Naruto said crying.
Samui walked towards the male blonde and hugged him from behind. Bee, Kakashi and Zabuza ceased their fighting. Zabuza approached the two slowly. Kakashi was about to attack until he saw tears in Zabuza's eyes. "I never wanted this to happen. Haku I…"
"Well look at this. The demon of the mist looks more like a little guppie. I'm a little upset I didn't get to pay that brat back for hurting my arm but you leaf nin did me a favor. Missing are so expensive these days, that's why I never was going to really pay you."
"Kakashi, it seems our fight is at an end. I can't use any of my arms but I will kill these bastards. Boy! Naruto!" Naruto turns to Zabuza. "Do me a favor and kill Gato and take my sword, pour some of your blood on it to rewrite it's contract. Thank you for being Haku's first friend. Lend me a kunai will you?" Naruto nodded and gave Zabuza a kunai.
"NOW, WHO WANTS TO JOIN ME ON THE TRIP TO HELL?!" Zabuza before running to the group of mercenaries.
"W-what are you doing, I'm paying you to kill that guinea pig of a demon. The group of bandits charged the missing nin and was quickly getting cut down. Despite this, Zabuza was getting stabbed himself. He knew his time was up. 'Haku, it looks like I'm not going where you are. I love you." Zabuza thought before darkness reached him as he fell to the ground
Gato walked up to Zabuza's body and spat on it, laughing maniacally. "Finally, you are right where you belong. Goodbye you poor excuse of a demon. Only if the girl didn't die, I wanted to have some fun with her but.." Gato paused before looking at Samui, Sakurai and Karui. "It looks like we got some good replacements." Gato said, licking his lips.
'Did he just threaten..?' Naruto thought as he grabbed Zabuza's or his sword and cut his finger on the sword. The sword started to change shape and color. The sword was now a single edge gold broadsword with a silver edge and wing guards
'To rape us? This disgusting pig.' Samui thought as she poured lightning into the Kiba blades. The Kiba blades transformed into twin Ninchirin swords. One was onyx with a silver edge and the other was the opposite.
Naruto sat Haku down and slowly walked forward, glowing gold as the clouds above him shined the same color. "Gato, you're nothing but evil scum. You disrespected Zabuza and threatened the people I care about. GATO, YOU'RE DEAD!"
"I dislike many things but there is one thing I hate.. Is pieces of shit like you who think they can treat other people like playthings and girls like toys. Gato…I WILL END YOU!" Samui yelled, surprising Killer Bee and her two teammates who were waking up. Samui body to radiate silver lightning as the gold clouds did the same.
Kakashi was amazed at the chakra level of the two genins plus the power. He really needed to get an update on his student skills. Gato started to panic and ran to the back of the crowd. "Anyone who kills that blonde brat gets first dibs on any girl they want." Gato said as he ran. The crowd cheered and ran towards the two blondes. Naruto and Samui just stood in the same spot as the bandits approached them. Once they were a foot away, the two blondes disappeared in a gold and Silver light, trailing between all the bandits and appeared in front of Gato. Gato stopped in his tracks and turned to his hired help. "What are you buffoons doing? Kill these..huh." Gato paused when he saw the bandits' bodies starting to show cut marks from their necks, chest, stomach and limbs. One by one they began to fall. He slowly turned his head forward, shaking in fear.
"What now Gato? What's your next move?" Naruto asked, his voice powered by energy as his body glowed gold. "You lost your pawns, betrayed your help and now you're alone. I ask again, what now?"
"P-please, don't kill me. I'll give you anything you want. Money, power? Just name it and it's yours..ugh." Gato choked when Samui picked him up.
"Really? Let me ask you something… and if you lie, you know what will happen. Now how many girls did you kidnap, how many parents did you take away from kids ang how many people suffered because of your greed?" Gato gulped, giving Samui her answer. The kumo nin tossed the scumbag in the air. Aligning their swords together, Naruto and Samui made a slash motion towards, releasing a gold attack covered in silver lightning towards Gato as he screamed. When the attack landed, Gato was fried, leaving no trace of him.
The villagers who arrived earlier to see the action were surprised to see what happened, the shinobi was speechless and the very few bandits that were left ran away. Naruto sighs and looks towards the dead girl with tears in his eyes, exhausted and almost out of chakra. Samui looked sad as well. She respected Haku as a shinobi and as a person, even though she was quite upset about the kiss. "Take care of him. He's all yours." Samui blushed and looked up to the sky. "I will."
Later that night, Naruto was sitting on the roof looking up at the moon. "Naruto-kun, still thinking about Haku?"
Naruto turned to Samui and gave her a forceful smile. "Yes, it's weird. I only talked to her once but for some reason, I felt like we connected. Is that weird? But I also feel like a failure. I'm probably the fattest person alive but I couldn't save her in time." Naruto said, holding up his hand and creating a ball light above his palm.
Samui sat next to her fellow blonde and turned to the moon. "Well, that's probably why she kissed you. She knew you tried something. Also it's not weird to establish a connection with someone you just met" Samui blushed a bit and continued. "I understand the feeling. It takes time to make a connection stronger but that doesn't mean two people who just met will have a weak bond. I developed a pretty strong bond when I arrived here at the wave and I know it will get stronger." Samui said, placing her palm under his. She unconsciously channeled lightning through her hand into Naruto's light.
Naruto turned his gaze from the moon and saw something more beautiful. Samui beauty reflected the light, her rare gorgeous smile as she stared back at him, light shining in her eyes, pretty pink lips and the warm feeling he felt just by being with her. They lowered their hands and Samui's face was getting closer to Naruto's. "I think I found a way to strengthen our bond a little further." Samui said before kissing Naruto on the lips.
Naruto's eyes widened as his heart began to race. The kiss lasted for 3 seconds as Samui pulled back a centimeter, staring at Naruto with her eyes half open. Samui just smiled at the blushing until she went in for another kiss. Naruto closed his eyes and followed suit, bothe kissing passionately under the moonlight.
"When is that baka going to wake up? We need to head back home." Sakura asked out loud.
"Calm down, Sakura. Naruto and Samui wasted a lot of energy yesterday training with their new blades and helping build the bridge. We still have time but if you're so insistent, why don't you go check on them." Kakashi suggested. packing his gear. Samui's team was outside, while Sasuke was waiting for his teammate.
"Fine." Sakura said before standing up and walking up the stairs.
"Is Samui awake yet? Hey where did pinky go?" Karui asked, walking in the house.
"Actually, I sent Sakura to wake Naruto up." Kakashi responded.
"But wasn't Samui sleeping.." "YOU PERVERT!" Karui was cut off when the two heard Sakura yell. Kakashi sighs then all of a sudden, the house shook. Karui ran up the stairs towards the room Sakura was in and saw said girl pinned against the wall by Samui holding her throat. Naruto was rubbing his head while he was shirtless. Samui was in her underwear.
"What gives you the right to strike Naruto-kun while he is sleeping?" Samui asked.
"But he was sleeping with you, while you were basically naked." Sakura answered, scared.
"And?" Samui responded.
"And what? He's a pervert."
"Perhaps you misunderstood the question. What gives you the right? If I had a problem with it, shouldn't I administer the punishment? You're an outsider to this situation, so what gain do you receive by hitting him? Do you understand the question now, little girl?" Samui asked, narrowing her eyes.
Sakura gulped and realized what the kumo nin was asking. "Maybe I should punch you for hurting my friend." Sakura went pale. Samui raised her fist but someone held her arm. When she turned her face, she saw Naruto smiling at her. The male blonde gave the female blonde a peck on the cheek, calming her down.
"It's ok Samui-chan. It didn't hurt." Naruto reassured.
Samui blushed and dropped the pinkette. Sakura was about to run until she glanced at the girl's chest and at hers. "How is she so developed?"
"Anyway, Sakura. Let Kakashi-sensei know I'll be down in a few."
"Karui, you do the same with bee-sensei." Both girls nod and went downstairs. Sanui smiled at her fellow blonde, which confused the boy. "Since we don't have a lot of time, how about we shower together.'' Naruto blushed as Samui pulled him into the bathroom.
Soon the blondes came downstairs where one had a victory smile and the other was blushing up a storm. Sakura glanced at the blondes but didn't say anything since she didn't want to invoke Samui wraith. Sasuke eyed the weapons the two blondes had strapped to them and just by looking at them, he could tell they were powerful. He doubts he could get the swords from the Kumo nin but maybe from Naruto by using the council.
The group made it to the end of the bridge saying goodbye to the villagers of wave. "Will you be back nii-san." Inari asked Naruto.
Naruto patted the kid's head. "Of course, I'll visit you guys sooner than you know." Samui smiled at Naruto's kindness. This man was special and she will claim him.
'Plus, he's good with kids. Good for the future.' Samui thought with a blush.
"Alright Naruto, it's time to go." Kakashi said as the group started to walk away. Naruto walked by Samui, hand in hand.
"Hey grandpa, what are you going to name the bridge?" Inari asked his grandfather.
"Hmmm, how about the great Naruto bridge." Tazuna said, everyone else cheered.
The two teams walked toward the end of the wave before they stood in front of each other. "Yo it was nice to meet you mister nine, not many people get my rhyme. So visit when you have the time." Bee said.
Gosh sensei, anyway. Naruto. It was nice meeting you and don't worry. I'll keep an eye on Samui." Karui teased before looking at the rest of team 7. "The rest of you can screw yourselves."
"What, why?" Kakashi asked.
"Well, you're a lazy pervert, the Uchiha is a self-centered prick and the girl is a useless banshee." Karui answered, earning a glare from the two genin. Kakashi's face fell with anime tears.
Omoi stepped forward and handed Naruto a lollipop. "I hope we can spar one day. But what if you kill me, and Kumo gets mad then they attack Konoha. We'll start a war and Samui betrays because she loves…"
"Omoi, shut up.. You're being uncool." Samui said before approaching the blonde, changing her cold look to a warm smile that only Naruto would see. "In a few months, the chunin exams will be held in your village and It'll be cool of you to enter." She then turned to Kakashi and glared at the man. "He will enter or I will destroy everyone of those books I come across, you understand."
"Yeah, he's strong enough. So I guarantee he'll be there." Kakashi reassured me.
Samui accepted the answer before turning to Naruto. I'll see you in a few months."
Naruto nodded. "I can't wait." The blondes hugged before the team went their separate ways.
"So Naruto, you and that girl Samui. I remember when I read your profile, you had a crush on Sakura." Kakashi stated.
"Well, I admit that Sakura is pretty and smart." Sakura blushed at the complement. " but she's a shallow person who likes to hit people to make herself feel better." Naruto said before catching Sakura fist. See? By the way, Sakura, you might not want to hit me."
"Oh, and why is that?" Sakura asked, irritated.
"Well, you see. I'm already telling kaa-cha that you insult and hit me." Sakura's face went white when she thought of Tsunade. "And Shizune-nee will be just as mad. So hitting me will just add fuel to the flame."
"Maybe you don't have to tell them." Sakura suggested.
"Yeah, but if they find out on their own, well both pay and Kakashi-sensei for allowing it to happen. They're very over protective of me. Sometimes I feel like they want something more from me." Naruto said.
"Ah, Naruto-kun. You love your onee-chan don't you? Don't worry, I'll always protect you." Shizune said, laying in her bed with a Naruto plushie until she sneezed. "Huh, why do I feel like Naruto-kun figured out my plan for taking his virginity."
"Naru-chan, I will not have any other girl take you away from me." Tsunade said, taking a bath. Until she sneezed. "Huh, why do I feel like Naru-chan discovered my plans to have him marry me when he is sixteen."
"Please Naruto. Don't tell them. I'll stop, I swear." Sakura begged.
Naruto sighs. "Fine but no more bullying." Sakura nodded her head fast. The group then proceeded to konoha.
"Kaa-chan Shizune-nee! I'm home." Naruto said as he walked in his house. Soon he was tackled by a blur and had multiple kisses on his face. "Welcome back, Naruto-kun."
"Hey Shizune-nee. I missed you."
"Damn it, Shizune! I was supposed to get the welcome home kiss." Tsunade walked in.
"Hey, kaa-chan. We're going to get called to a meeting soon." Naruto informed his mom.
"Hmm, for kami sake why?" Naruto took his new sword off his back. "Because of this. I'm pretty sure the Uchiha will try to take this. He's been eyeing the sword on our way back from our mission." Naruto then explained the mission he was just on. Tsunade and Shizune were mad that their leader allowed them to continue on the mission but was happy Naruto didn't receive a scratch. "Well, I'm proud of how you perform but I'm concerned. Did the Kumo team give you any problems."
"Actually, they were more helpful than my own. Sakura really didn't do much. Sasuke did well but I had to clean up his mess. But they did help me realize something that we should bring up in the meeting."
"Oh? And what's that Naru-chan?" Tsunade asked.
"I'll explain later since the Anbu is here, outside our door." Naruto said as he opened the door, revealing neko. "I knew this would happen."
"I'm sorry about this Senju-kun. But you and your mother have been called to a meeting." Neko said.
"Don't apologize, I'm pretty sure it's the civilian heads. Anyway kaa-chan, let's go." Naruto called. Neko nodded as the three walked outside and shunshin to the council room. Tsunade and Naruto walked to the Senju side, which confused everyone in the room.
"Brat, leave Tsunade-sama alone and stand in the middle. You don't deserve to spread your filth near the princess." one of the civilians said.
All of a sudden, the room was filled with ki. The clan heads started to sweat and the civilians were gasping for air. Everyone looked towards the source and saw Tsunade glaring at the man. "Excuse me but unless you want to die, you should refrain from disrespecting my son in front of me."
"Y-your son? But it wasn't run through by us. We can't allow this, it'll upset the power balance with his condition." Koharu said. "Your adoption will be revoked."
"Too bad you don't have a choice. I already got daimyo-sama permission and he signed it. It also helped since he's from the Uzumaki clan and I'm from the Senju, which make us family since the two clans are distant cousins." Tsuande explained. The clan heads smirked as the civilians paled
"Sorry, I'm late." Hiruzen said walking in, greeting everyone and taking a seat at the head table. "Now why have you asked for the meeting, elders?" Hiruzen asked even though he already knew. Naruto explained earlier of the mission and informed him of Sasuke eyeing the new blade. Sasuke would go to the council and try to use them to take his blade.
"We were informed by team 7's mission to wave and the encounter with Zabuza Momochi. At the end of the mission, Naruto and the kumo kunoichi acquired blades from the enemies. Am I correct?" Homura asked.
"Yes, that's correct. Zabuza gave me his blade and I used it alongside Samui- the kumo nin, wiping out Gato and his forces." Naruto said.
"May we see the blade." Danzo asked.
Naruto nodded and lifted his right hand. In a flash of light, the new blade appeared. "I call it the holy dragon. It transformed like this after I wiped my blood on it."
"The sword does seem strong, it's decided. You will hand the blade over to the Uchiha." one of the civilians said, while the others agreed except for Mebuki. The clan heads rolled their eyes.
"I refuse." Naruto said calmly.
"You dare, we're the council boys, you do what we tell you. You will hand over the sword to Uchiha-sama." the Civilian man said.
Naruto started to laugh. "You seem to forget. I'm a shinobi now. Do you know what that means? I only take orders from the hokage-sama. Also you civilians are only in charge of merchants, not the shinobi. Especially since you're making this village weaker and stupid."
"What do you mean, Naruto-san?" Hiashi asked.
"I'm glad you asked Hiashi-sama. Can any of you tell me what are the conditions for graduating from the academy?" Naruto asked.
"If I recall, you'll need to perform the bunshin, substitution and transformation jutsu." Shibi answered.
"You're right. Besides the clan children. This puts the civilian children at a disadvantage." Naruto said.
"Can you explain Naruto-kun?" Hiruzen asked.
Naruto nodded. "Certainly, you see on my mission to the wave. We spar with the kumo team to measure our strengths and I saw them fight on the mission. The kumo team is well versed in ninjutsu, kinjutsu and taijutsu that's above the academy level. Sasuke fought against the female leader of the team and lost. I was able to get a draw since our sensei stopped it. The best part about this, is the fact that Kumo have no clans in their village. Yet their shinobi who is the same age as us was able to beat Sasuke and was on par with myself."
"Hmmm, Koharu. Give me the scroll that contains the academy curriculum." Hiruzen said. Koharu nodded and gave him the scroll. He then gave it to Naruto. "Naruto-kun, I want your opinion on this. Tell me if there are any problems with classes."
Naruto took the scroll and cocked an eyebrow. "Well for one, why is gardening here? History should be taken out, the parents and clan heads should inform their kids of this. Cooking should be taken off. When you are on a mission, you have to hunt for your food. Arts and craft, are you serious? This sounds like a daycare, not an academy for future shinobi."
"Excuse me, but we are in charge of the academy, Senju-san." a civilian head said. "We was appointed by the hokage himself."
"Any now I'm pretty sure he realized his mistake." Naruto countered, causing the civilians to sneer.
"So what do you suggest we do Senju-sama?" Danzo asked.
"Well, that's easy. We have clan heads with different expertise. Hyuga and there taijutsu, Aburame and there analytics and tracking, Inuzuka and their speed and using their senses, Akamichi and their physical strength, Nara and their strategies and planning, Yamanaka and interrogation skills and last, the Senju and the chakra control and medic skill. Apply a little of each, then our genin we'll be prepared and more versatile." Naruto said. Hiruzen nodded. "Kaa-chan wanted to rebuild the medical class and this could be a good opportunity."
"I approve, we'll make the changes. We are supposed to be the strongest and having our genin lose to another village makes us look bad." Hiruzen said.
"But the cost…" one of the merchants said.
"Is worth our shinobi lives. Is that the reason you changed the course? To save money to fill your pocket?" Hiruzen asked, glaring at the civilian sides.
"Well, I would love to pass my knowledge to the younger generation. I feel every team should have one medical ninja to save lives." Tsunade said.
"Then it's settled." Hiruzen said.
"But what about the sword in Senju-san possession. The Uchiha needs it more." a civilian said.
"Wrong, we shinobi all protect this village. He needs it just as much as any other shinobi plus since this was given to me, it's part of the Senju clan and will be passed on to my offspring." Naruto stated, making Tsunade smile.
so before anyone question, the move Samui use to kill Raiga. I decided to hide because it's an ace move she's going to use in the exams and I decided to give a glimpse on how to activate it. also I decided add a little comedy to Shizune and Tsunade affection towards Naruto, I stole this idea from a anime but it's just pointless cmedy
"If that's all, this meeting is adjourned." Hiruzen said.
