I don't own Akame ga kill or Naruto this is a fan fiction.

I guess since we are pretty much-killing people the saying would fit, not that it made me very happy to hear it. No rest for the wicked, since when is punishing corrupt bastards that kill innocent people a wicked thing?

The next mission I got to do it alone, or at least part of the mission. Najenda and I met a young woman on a graveyard in the capital's poor district. She told us a rather disturbing story about how a Captain in the guard was taking bribes from a sleazy oil merchant, he had her future husband killed to cover up some of his shady deals. He had the corrupt Captain a man by name Ogre accuse him falsely of a crime.

He was beheaded in the public square and she was forced to watch the entire thing, from the whip down right to seeing the man she loved to have his head chopped off.

"Don't worry Miss, we will take care of this and no one else will have to go through what you did, especially by the actions of that corrupt Captain. Your loved one shall be avenged." She hugged Najenda crying and thanking her over and over again.

She was still in tears as she left. "Why did she hug me Naruto? You were the one that tried to make her feel better." I guess she must have found me scary, I told her and she laughed as she went back to the hideout. I, on the other hand, wanted to have a word with Captain Ogre.

The man fit the description exactly, scars in all the mentioned places on his face, wearing armor, and was rather large and physically fit. I walked over to him and he looked at me with a strange look on his face.

"Captain Ogre, do you mind if we spoke privately? I have heard a few things I would very much like your help in explaining." He faked a smile and put his large hand on my shoulder.

"Sure, I don't see why not. I have a better idea, why don't we go get a couple of drinks and I will answer all your doubts, my treat." This screamed ambush to me but it would make little to no difference to me. If he did plan to ambush me one or a hundred enemies were no problems to me.

As we walked into the bar I asked for tea, he of course went and ordered an alcoholic drink. "You know my name but what should I call you? What has troubled you so much that you found it necessary to ask me? Most people are too scared to even talk to me."

"The name is Naruto, and I keep hearing that you been taking bribes and helping corrupt business owners to use innocent people as scapegoats." He laughed as I said that and took a drink from his mug.

"I sure as hell have been doing that, and I feel no remorse whatsoever doing it. I was not always like this you know. I was an honest, hard working person. I sort of lost faith in the way the world is. I watched people rise in ranks faster than I ever did simply because they came from wealthy families."

"I got so sick of being passed over promotions, that I decided to become wealthy by any means I could. Nobody gave a damn about me, why should I care about others? You might be wondering why is getting promoted so important? It's simple really, everyone from the rank Captain and bellow get dismal retirement benefits. If I wanted to have enough to live on in my retirement I needed to be promoted."

"Now the only problem I have is that those blasted Night Raid clowns are probably planning to try and kill me. What would you do Naruto if you were a member of the Night Raid?"

I finished my tea and looked at him with a smile on my face, "Why I would challenge you to a duel. Come to think of it, would you duel me?" Ogre laughed as he finished his drink and looked for some reason genuinely happy with what I said.

"Sure I would duel you Naruto, but my duels are the kind where only one man makes it out of it alive. I just happen to know of a nice, spacious and secluded spot for the duel. We will not be interrupted."

As I walked into the alley I knew we were indeed surrounded. I smiled as the man took out his sword, "So are the people here spectators? Or do I need to think this is an ambush?" The man laughed as I said that and began nodding his head.

"These guys are just here to watch, wouldn't do much good to have a duel without people watching. This way at least there will be some benefit to one of us dying. They will learn a valuable lesson once you die."

There was no protocol, no official start to the duel. Well technically that was not true, the duel began when he first drew his sword. I waited for him to try and strike. I drew mine as soon as he swung his sword to strike me.

My katana blocked his and even managed to strike a side of his thigh. Each time he tried to strike I blocked it, and he got another small cut. "Why don't you quit wasting your time attack me or die."

I held my blade aiming it at him, "Oh, I wouldn't worry about me dying, and as for me injuring you I am you just don't know it yet." My attacks were not as improvised as my opponent believed. Everything was planned and every small cut had a purpose.

Little by little his movements became more sluggish and easier to deflect. It got to the point that he could no longer hold his weapon and decided to use his fists. That was my cue to end the fight once and for all. When he was within the striking range I cut off his hands, throat and finally hit head came clean off hitting the floor.

Spectators my foot, they actually came out of their hiding places and tried to attack me. My shadow clones made short work of the lot and in the end, there were the dead bodies of dozens of mutilated guards and the dead body of Captain Ogre. His head impaled in the sword he loved to use.

I went back to base and reported my mission to be complete, Ogre and a few of his guards were dead. Najenda looked at me and smiled, she stood up and sat on her desk while looking at me. "I am aware of that, Leone thought you needed back up and went after you shortly after you left. She tells me you were particularly brutal in the way you left his body, especially the way you left his head. Do you think that was necessary?"

I looked at her and I smiled, "I actually accepted to fight an honor duel with him. Those men were supposedly only spectators since I killed the captain their little ambush failed and they attack me. This means to me he never had any intention of fighting me honorably, and this was an ambush plain and simple."

I looked at my sword and began checking it for any damage, "As he did not honor our agreement, I felt is was only fitting that I show him the same amount of honor as he did me." I sheathed my sword and looked at her waiting for her reprimand.

"I guess that explains it, but you know he was very much liked by most of the guards under his command, this could actually cause these people to develop a vendetta against us."

I looked at her and smiled and I really tried to be sincere, "These people would already want us all dead since we basically are killing the people that are loyal to Prime Minister Honest. In their mind, we are evil people that are trying to destroy the Empire."

"I wouldn't worry too much if I find any that use Imperial Arms I will try to show them the error of their ways. I somehow feel it would be a wasted effort if the person is so blind they can't see how corrupt the Empire has become."

Najenda smiled and nodded her head as I finished saying that. "You may be right Naruto, I was once a loyal imperial guard myself. It took me seeing the evil that the corrupt people of the empire did for me to see the truth. That might actually help you show them the error of their ways."

I got up and looked at her, "Now if you will excuse me, boss, I got to go to take a bath and go to sleep. Chances are I will be doing recon in the capital tomorrow." I don't know why she found that funny, but she started laughing so hard she began touching her abdomen.

"And here I was thinking I would have to break the news to you easier. You are right, you are doing a reconnaissance mission tomorrow, and you are going with Mine. It would be a good opportunity for both of you to work out your differences."

She was right I didn't like this one bit. She was the leader of the Night Raid so I really had no choice, but I really didn't like this one bit.

I decided to take my bath and try to relax a little, or at least I tried to do so. Once I was taking my bath and decided to sit down in the bath area and soak my troubles away someone walked in as naked as the day she was born.

I for once was glad it wasn't Akame, she would have tried to kill me. The person that did walk in was also a problem but for different reasons. Leone just walked over to me and she was smiling like she found a treasure.

"Boy am I glad I decided to take my bath now. You can help me wash my back, and I can certainly do the same for you. I also have a few questions for you Naruto, hope you don't mind answering them for me. I have been curious about your possible answers a lot lately."

I told her to take care of the other parts I shouldn't wash and tell when I could wash her back. She did rather quickly, and I began washing her back. It sure didn't help that she was pressing her back into my hands.

"So mind telling me why you didn't take any other member as a backup for your mission to kill Ogre?" I told her that it was no necessary, and I could very well take care of this on my own.

"So you can take care of killing someone that strong, so Naruto do you have a thing for women with big tits?" I finished washing her back and turned away, I was not going to answer that question. It was simply too embarrassing to answer.

That is when she grabbed me and began washing my back rather roughly, I guess she was not happy that I didn't answer that question. "Why would it matter if I like women with big boobs?"

She began pressing hers against my back and using them to wash my back, damn these hormones, I looked down and saw something I wish I had better control over. Let's just say that part of me was reacting to her and she was smiling as she saw that.

"Well you might not want to answer my question, but you have a very honest body Naruto. What's the matter Naruto are you a virgin?" I took the bucket near me that had cold water and pour it down on myself.

I went back to the bathing area and sat down on the stone floor that made up the giant bath tub. It was more like a miniature pool from the way I saw it. "I am not a virgin, I am actually a widower. And yes my wife did have a very nice pair of tits. She was shy and timid when I first met her, but she became rather assertive and direct during our marriage."

I came here to take a bath and relax, and now I was basically forced to remember one of the saddest moments in my entire life. "Hope that satisfies your curiosity Leone, at least I hope it does. Otherwise, you opening that old wound of mine and pouring salt into it would be a waste."

She sat down right next to me, "Sorry about that, it's just I don't know you very well and since we are going to be working together. I figured that it might be a good idea to get to know you better."

"I am not a virgin either, but unlike you, it was not my choice. I was abused rather badly when I was a teen. I had not developed into the beauty you know now then, how could I if I suffer from constant malnutrition. The bastard has a thing for girls or even boys that looked like little kids."

"The only way I could escape that fate was for him to lose interest in me, so I did everything I could to work out, steal money or food to kept well fed. Sure enough, as my figure began to show that I would be the bombshell you know now he threw me into the streets wearing the old rags he found me in."

"I became a member of Night Raid after I stole the Imperial Arm and killed that bastard with my own hands. Now that I think of it, I think about it I think he was the brother of Prime Minister Honest, and if he is anything like he was. I sure pity the poor Emperor."

I got up and began to dry myself, "I don't pity the man who made the dream my friend and I made real into the corrupt nightmare that it is today. I hate him, and mark my words he will die."

She began to dry herself and I could tell she was looking at me, "Hate is an awful thing to base your life on Naruto, it will devour you from inside and leave you a husk of what you could have been. I rather say we punish them for the evil they do to the innocent people of the Empire."
