OP1: Overwhelming Vivid Days by Nanami Yoshi

"You were about to spoil a chapter he hasn't read in order to let his guard down?"

"Yeah, that really saved us." Hinata couldn't help herself to a laugh when Naruto confirmed it.

"So you ghostwrote for Jiraiya huh...Never took you for a writer," said Hinata, Naruto telling her some of Pervy Sage's chapters were cliché and that he wanted to put his own spin on them. He didn't think it'd actually improve the sales. "At least you get paid without having to do anything."

"What about you? How did yours go?"

"Shino, Kiba, and I managed to pass ours within 30 minutes." Naruto was surprised to hear this. She did way better than him on her survival exercise. "...You're not going to be here long, are you?"

"Yeah...Plan to go to a university in Japan to study. Some kids my age and I took a test and passed with flying colors, allowing us to enroll at any Japanese college or university of our choosing and study. I'll be gone for about 2 1/2 years, maybe 3, come back, and then..." Hinata wondered what he was about to say. However, he didn't finish and instead, told her,

"Let's just leave it at that for now..."

"What was he about to say?" After finishing the pizza and talking about missions they might be doing with their teams, Hinata decided she should go home.

"...Hinata."

"Yes?"

"...Your hair...You should try growing it. I think it'd look good on you." Hinata found her face feeling hot when Naruto casually told her she'd look good with long hair. "I mean, your hair is fine as it is. It's just a suggestion."

"I'll...I'll consider growing it long if I decide to change it up," she told him with a smile before leaving.

Three Weeks (And 9 D-Rank Missions) Later

"Your next mission is-"

"Old Man, I think a mission that's not about catching a cat and/or an escaped animal that's not feline is in order," Naruto interrupts. "I want to do a more...exciting mission." This came as a surprise for the Third Hokage. Naruto never asked anything from him, at least until now.

"Naruto, there's no way we can-"

"I know, we're Genin, we only do D-Ranks, but do you think we can get something a bit over D that we can handle?" Naruto interrupts, Sasuke agreeing with the blond without saying anything while Sakura is against this.

"Very well, I'll make an exception just this once and give you a C-Rank Mission, since you never asked for anything from me until now." Turning to Kakashi, the Third tells him to make sure they complete it and that they come home safe.

"Got it."

"...Your mission is to protect a very important client."

"And who's this client supposed to be?" asked Sasuke. His question is answered when a grey-haired bespectacled man entered the room, a large bottle of sake in hand.

"What's this? It's just a bunch of damn kids," said the old man, taking a swig of his bottle after. "The kid in the orange, are you supposed to be a ninja in that ridiculous getup?"

"I can be to deers when it's hunting season," Naruto joked while keeping his expressionless face. The man laughs at his joke as everyone looks on, surprised that the blond made fun of himself and his choice of clothing. The man, after he finished laughing, introduced himself as Tazuna, a veteran bridge builder, who needs them to protect him while completing a bridge.

Village Gate

"When are you not without those things?" asked Kakashi as he saw Naruto put on his headphones and played music on his phone.

"When I'm at home..." Looking beyond the gate, Naruto wondered what lied ahead of the mission as he and Team 7 start their first real mission.

3 hours later

"We're almost there," said Tazuna as Team 7 followed behind. Naruto, being in the way back, took notice of his surroundings, aware that they were being followed. Out of nowhere, Kakashi gets wrapped in a retractable shuriken-styled chain as two masked ninjas appear and forcefully tug the ends back, slicing him to pieces before going after Tazuna, Naruto and Sasuke quickly kicking them away as they prepare to face the two assassins. However, Kakashi, revealed to be alive, knocks them out, having used the Body Flicker Technique to avoid what was supposed to be how he'd die.

"If I remember correctly, they're the Demon Brothers, Missing-nins. To attempt to take Tazuna's life...this is below them," said Kakashi.

"If that's true, then this mission is no ordinary C-Rank...No, rather...it's a B-Rank or higher," Naruto adds, surprising Sakura as she turns to Tazuna. Turning to the bridge builder, Sasuke asked him what he was hiding from them. Tazuna looks down, unable to answer, opting to stay silent.

"This mission is too soon for us. Let's quit," said Sakura. "We should return to-"

"No, we're continuing," said Kakashi, shocking Sakura.

"Too late to turn back now," Naruto adds. "Since we agreed to this mission and saw an attempt on his life, we can't go back now. It might not be so bad. After all, we have Kakashi-sensei." Putting his headphones back on, Naruto and his team continued their escort after Kakashi finished tying up the Demon Brothers and leaving them to be captured.

Unknown Hideout

"The enemy has hired ninjas of tremendous skill! And besides, now that the Demon Brothers have tried and failed, they'll be on guard against further attempts!" Gato shouts, directing his anger towards a shirtless masked man wielding a large sword resembling a knife. The man points his sword at him as he asks his employer to remember who he's talking to.

"I am Zabuza Momochi, one of The Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist! I'll deal with them myself if it means shutting you up."

1 hour later

Team 7 and Tazuna sat quietly in a small rowing boat as the rower brought them to the Land of Waves. After minutes of silence, they look up and see the bridge Tazuna's trying to finish. After clearing his throat, Tazuna gets their attention, wanting to be honest with them and tell the truth.

"As you guessed, this job is more dangerous than you and your students were led to believe. You see, there's a man, a really scary one, who wants me dead," he told them.

"Who is he? asked Kakashi.

"He's a billionaire in the field of marine transportation. His name is Gato."

"You mean Gato of Gato Shipping and Transport?" asked Kakashi, surprised by the reveal. "He's one of the richest men in the world."

"Don't remember seeing his name on any Forbes magazines..." Naruto thought to himself, figuring him being one of the richest men in the world was nothing but an exaggeration.

"He now has a stranglehold on all forms of transportation and wealth here. The only thing he has to fear is the completion of the bridge," Tazuna adds.

"So you're the only one who can get in his way," said Sakura. Tazuna only nodded yes to answer the pink-haired genin's question.

"Why didn't you tell us all this when you asked for help?" Sasuke asked.

"Our land isn't a real prosperous land, Even our local lords are poor...and I have no money at all. An elite ninja would be a lot more than what I can afford..."

"...Money can be a pain huh..." said Naruto. "I get that we need to get paid for a mission like this, but if it were up to us, we'd do it for free."

"You would?" asked Tazuna.

"We're not going to let someone terrorize your land just because you couldn't afford it. It's not right." Hearing this from Naruto, Sasuke, Sakura, and Kakashi couldn't help but agree with the blond as Tazuna formally asked them to protect him until the bridge is done.

"That's the mission," said Kakashi. "We'll make sure you and everyone you care about are safe."

Land of Waves

"This mist is pretty thick," said Sasuke, walking in a square formation, Tazuna at the center. As they proceed cautiously, Naruto hears a noise coming from behind that was getting louder as it got closer. Reacting quickly, he spun his body around counterclockwise and kicked a large sword away from them, surprising his teammates as its blade embeds itself into a tree. Looking up, they see Zabuza standing on the handle of the sword, looking down on them with menacing eyes.

"Well, well, if it isn't Zabuza Momochi, the kid who ran off and left the Land of the Mists..." said Kakashi.

"Geez, Kakashi-sensei sure knows a lot of people outside the village..." Naruto thought to himself.

"Kakashi of the Sharingan...If it's no trouble for you, could you surrender that old man?" asked Zabuza. Sasuke had a look of shock as he turns to Kakashi and wondered about his moniker.

"All of you, stay out of this and make sure Tazuna's safe. I'll deal with this one," he told them as the Jonin revealed the Sharingan in his left eye.

"Ahh...This IS an honor...I'm on a very tight schedule to kill the old man. But first, I have to kill you to get to him, Kakashi." After quickly weaving hand signs, Zabuza and his sword vanish right before their eyes.

"Throat, Spinal column, Lungs, Liver, the Jugular vein, the Subclavian artery... So many choices, what vital, vulnerable place shall I choose?" Zabuza asked himself as Team 7 kept their guards up. Sasuke and Sakura looked like they were going to lose it when they felt Zabuza's bloodlust as Naruto and Kakashi kept their cool.

"Don't worry, I'll keep you all safe. I promise," Kakashi assured them.

"I WOULDN'T BET ON THAT..." Out of nowhere, Zabuza appears behind Naruto, Sasuke, and Sakura and prepares to strike Tazuna. However, Kakashi reacts fast enough to prevent his attack on the old man as the three Genin and Tazuna move away from the two combatants. Taking out a kunai, Kakashi stabs Zabuza in the gut. However, he turns out to be a water clone as the real Zabuza appears behind Kakashi and bisects him. To his annoyance, he turns out to be a water clone as well, appearing behind the masked swordsman, kunai at his neck.

"Game over, Zabuza," said Kakashi, narrowing his eyes at him.

"Too bad for you, I'm not that easy to fool." To Kakashi's shock, the Zabuza in front of him turns into water as the real one appears from behind and kicks Kakashi into a small pond, trapping him in a water prison technique after. "You running around free makes it too hard for me to do my job. I'll finish you later after I've dealt with the others..." With one hand he weaved hand signs to summon another water clone.

"Clothes don't make a ninja. You need skills good enough to rate a listing in my bingo book of enemies...before you deserve to be called ninja. We don't call your kind "ninja." We prefer..." The water clone quickly appears in front Sasuke before knocking him away, putting him out of commission. "brats."

"Sasuke!" Sakura called out in a worried tone. As Zabuza's water clone prepares to kill Tazuna with a swing of his sword, he finds himself unable to swing it. Turning around, he has a look of surprise and amusement towards Naruto, who was holding the blade with a tight grip, calmly looking up at the clone. The blond then disarmed the clone before punching it with enough force to destroy it, surprising the original Zabuza.

"I wasn't expecting a mere Genin to destroy one of my water clones." Naruto stared the swordsman down as he wondered what Zabuza had in store for them.

[Persona 3 The Movie: #1 Spring of Birth OST - Persona Summoners]

"Sakura, protect Old Man Tazuna and Sasuke. Leave saving Kakashi to me," Naruto told her as he prepared to fight Zabuza.

"What are you planning do, Naruto?" asked Sakura.

"I plan to show this guy how a brat fights," he told her as Zabuza makes 10 water clones and commands them to attack the blond genin. Naruto dodges a sword strike from a water clone and sends it flying with a palm strike, destroying it before jumping over another one and snapping its neck from behind. The blond then took out a kunai and threw it at another clone's head, catching an attacking clone's sword by the blade after and throws the clone at two other ones, destroying them. With his kunai, Naruto parried an overhead blade strike before stuffing an air grenade into the next clone's stomach, kicking it towards the remaining clones as the technique detonates, blowing them up. Zabuza, unfazed, creates 5 more clones, much to the blond's annoyance.

"You're good, but I wonder how long you can last before you run out of steam." Naruto said nothing as he calmly stares down Zabuza, who tells him he finds the Genin's silence annoying.

"Naruto, when in battle, you must never blindly rush into battle unless you have a plan. Don't ever rush at an opponent head-on or without a plan. If you stay calm and think ahead, you can overcome any foe."

"Zabuza is obviously a water element user. The mist is sustained by a source. Either Zabuza or the pond he's standing on. As long as Kakashi-sensei's in that water prison, he'll just use water clones to tire me out. I'll need to separate the real Zabuza from Kakashi-sensei...Sorry Ayane, I might have to borrow a move I saw you use when I watched you fight that Black Spider Ninja who was protecting Mizuki. I was only going to show you later so you could explain it to me, but it seems I'll have to use it to save my team's captain." Producing three shadow clones, he has them distract Zabuza as he weaved hand signs and began chanting something Zabuza couldn't understand. He could, however, feel a strong aura gathering in front of Naruto.

"That's not chakra he's gathering...Could it be?" Kakashi wondered.

"Namaku Samanda Basara Dan Kan Namaku Samanda Basara-"

"What's he planning? I should stop him before he can finish." Zabuza summons 5 shadow clones to go after Naruto as he continues chanting. The clones prove to be a match for Zabuza's water clone, each of them having the same skill and thought process as the blond and redirecting them so they keep a good distance away from the original.

"Dan Kan Namaku Samanda Basara Dan Kan-" One of Naruto clones get destroyed as one of the two remaining shadow clones destroy two water clones with an air grenade, blowing them up.

"On Amiyo Ken On Basara-" As Naruto nears completion, the two remaining water clones destroy the last two shadow clones before lunging at Naruto. However, the blond finished his chant as he opens his eyes.

"Dato Ban On Basarada Tou! Dou!" Naruto fires a fast traveling but powerful orange fireball (Ayane's Break Blow from DOA2 and DOA6) that destroys the water clones and hits Zabuza square in the chest, knocking the swordsman back onto some ground.

[Music End]

With Zabuza knocked away, Kakashi breaks free from the prison. Getting up, looking down to see a burning mark on his chest, an angry Zabuza directs a glare at Naruto.

"A mere Genin, hurt me this bad!? Absurd!" After using the technique, Naruto finds himself exhausted, taking a knee, to his surprise. It was rare for him to be exhausted this early. Whatever he used, it was very taxing, yet Ayane was able to do it without showing signs like he was. Standing in front of the blond, Kakashi told him, "Whatever you used, it helped weaken him greatly. Allow me to do the rest," before preparing to face the now wounded but enraged Zabuza.

Fully directing his attention to the tired Naruto, the swordsman quickly weaves hand signs before launching a dragon-shaped water projectile (Water Release: Water Dragon Missile) towards him. It's canceled, however, by Kakashi, using the same technique against him. Before he can weave more hand signs, the chest wound he received from the blond Genin painfully pulsates, stunning him long enough for Kakashi to use Great Waterfall Jutsu to force him back against a tree hard before he felt 4 kunais embed themselves into his flesh.

"I'm ending this." Before Kakashi can deliver the finishing blow, a pair of senbon needles hit Zabuza in the neck, killing him. Looking up to the tree at their left, the team see a masked female ninja (Yes, she's a she in here) standing on a tall branch before landing safely on the ground in front of the dead Zabuza.

"Thank you for your help. I hope you don't mind my interfering, but I wanted the satisfaction of finishing Zabuza myself," she told them.

"Correct me if I'm wrong, but are you a Hunter-nin from Kirigakure?" asked Kakashi, the masked ninja confirming it. "By your size and the timbre of your voice, you're a few years older than my Genin, yet you're already a full-fledged Hunter-nin..."

"That's right. Now if you let me, I'd like to take the body back to Kirigakure." With a nod from Kakashi, the Hunter-nin is allowed to take the body before leaving. With the enemy gone, Sakura checks up on Sasuke, still unconscious from Zabuza's attack. Worried, she wonders out loud about what she should do.

"Maybe if you kiss him, he'll wake up," Naruto joked, with Sakura going for it. However, Sasuke woke up before she could take his first kiss, to her disappointment.

"What happened? Where's Zabuza?" asked Sasuke.

"He got killed by a Hunter-nin, who took his body back to Kirigakure," Naruto told him. This angers Sasuke, who couldn't do anything, remembering how afraid he was when he felt Zabuza's killing intent. Looking at him, Naruto assured him it was okay to be scared. "You don't get it, we're supposed to be ninjas, yet I just let that man scare me and-"

"Sasuke, fear is natural to have. There'll always be a next time for everything. Take this confrontation as the first step to improve, and you'll overcome any obstacle," Kakashi told him, the Uchiha sighing and accepting the outcome of the battle.

"Now that the battle is over...thanks for stopping that man from slicing me in two," said Tazuna, grateful. Covering his Sharingan, Kakashi tells them they should continue the mission before abruptly passing out from overusing his left eye. Following this, Naruto and Sasuke had to carry him over to Tazuna's house.

Tazuna's House

"Will he be alright?" asked Tsunami, Tazuna's 28-year old daughter. Kakashi, bedridden, told her he wasn't but will be in a week.

"The Sharingan is incredible, but doesn't the strain it puts on your body make it worth it?" asked Sakura.

"He's still alive, so I'm sure it's worth it," Tazuna responds. "Take all the time you need. With that Zabuza guy out of the way, you can probably relax for a while."

"Thanks, Tazuna...Where's Sasuke and Naruto?" Sakura tells the Jonin that Sasuke went out to train by himself. Naruto, to Kakashi's surprise, was cooking in the kitchen, having gathered some herbs to use to help him recover and prepare for lunch.

"Naruto cooking...Not something I'm looking forward to..."

Elsewhere

"The Hunter-nin prepares to cut off Zabuza's mouth mask when his eyes shoot open and he caught the girl's hand.

"I can do it myself," he told her as he took the bandages covering his mouth off and took out the senbon in his neck. Zabuza asks her when she plans on keeping her mask on before telling her to take it off.

"Very well," she said, taking it off to reveal her beautiful face. "Better?" Zabuza said nothing as he lets her tend to his wounds. Looking at the burn wound on his chest, she comments on how bad it looked, and that he'll need to rest for a few days, maybe a full week before he was back in top shape. "Next time, will you be all right?"

"Next time, I'll break through that Sharingan of his. That I assure you, Haku."

Tazuna's House

"You mean to tell us that he's alive!?" Sakura says out loud.

"Yes, I'm sure of it. If I recall, the Hunter-nins dispose of the bodies right on the spot. But she didn't. Instead, she took it away. If she needed proof, she would only need the head. To think I overlooked that one detail..."

"You...You must be overthinking things," said a worried Tazuna. "Even if he was, I'm sure that you'll be able to beat him the second time."

"Whether he's dead or alive, there may still be more and even deadlier ninja working for Gato."

"Good, because if there's more, I can stretch my legs a bit," said Naruto, coming in with a bowl of herbal fish soup.

"Naruto...Did you make that?" Naruto nodded his head yes and hands his sensei the food. Smelling it, Kakashi found the aroma to be welcoming.

"Lunch will be done soon."

"I look forward to it," said Kakashi. Turning to Sakura, he tells her that, until he recovers, he will increase everyone's training schedule so they'll be ready for when Zabuza or another enemy shows up.

"Whatever it is, I hope it's not something I-" Naruto stops when he sees a young boy standing at the entrance of the room. "Uhhh, who's he?"

"Welcome home, Grandpa."

"Inari! Where've you been?" asked a happy Tazuna.

"Come greet our guests properly. They're the ninja who brought our grandfather safely home," said Tsunami.

"But Mom, they're all gonna die," said the boy now identified as Inari, changing the atmosphere in the room. "No one can beat Gato and his men."

"I don't know, kid. We handled a shirtless mummy not too long ago. I'm sure we'll take care of whoever Gato will throw at us. After all, heroes always beat the bad guys," said Naruto.

"Hero"? There's no such thing..." he tells the blond.

"Are you sure? I've already seen a few in person so I beg to differ."

"If you don't wanna die, go home now..."

"Not a chance...Inari was it? We're still on a mission, and we're intent on completing it. Until then, you're stuck with us." Saying nothing, Inari leaves to go watch the ocean from his room.

"Forgive my son, he's-"

"It's fine. I understand how he's feeling. With Gato ruling this country and all..." said Kakashi. Turning to Naruto, he asked everyone to leave the room so he could talk with the blond. Turning to Tsunami, he gives her instructions on how to finish his cooking before they leave.

"...So, you know Ninpo?"

"Ninpo? What's that?"

"You're smart but you don't know what Ninpo is?" Naruto tells him he may be smart, but he can't always know everything. "Ninpo is the spiritual and mystical arts of the Ninja. It requires ki to use them."

"And that is what exactly?"

"Chakra is a combination of physical and spiritual energy. For Ki, it requires a combination of physical and mental energy. A kid your age would die from using that for the first time, should they not be prepared. Given your physical and mental state, you only got off with some exhaustion...something I'd call lucky."

"That explains it...What can you tell me about ninpo?"

"Only that these ninja arts are powerful and that they've been known to be equal to or surpass the ninjutsu we know. The only ones who can use them are the late Fu-Ma Clan, the Mugen Tenshin, the Hayabusa, the Black Spider Clan, and the Warrior Priestesses of Hinomoto...No one in the Hidden Leaf or the Five Great Shinobi Countries has the potential to use Ninpo, yet you're the only one..."

"Can't people just work to the point where they can use ki?"

"No matter how much we train and how hard we work, we can never learn Ninpo. Not even the Uchiha can use it, even with the Sharingan," Kakashi adds. "Not even "he" (Orochimaru) could ever hope to learn it..."

"Will I have to worry about people wanting to learn about it through extreme means like experimentation?"

"I don't think so. Even if they were to cut you open to research the many possibilities, they can't hope to use it," he assured Naruto. "May I suggest something?" Kakashi tells the blond genin he should learn how to use Ki from someone who's an expert at it or has the knowledge needed to help him instead of learning it all on his own, or risk possibly killing himself. "You were lucky to use it and live, but I don't think you should use it the second time until you've trained enough to properly utilize ki."

"I can do that. Thanks, Kakashi-sens-"

"Naruto!? The pot is boiling very violently!"

"My jambalaya!" Naruto shouts in a panicked manner as he ran out of the room in a panic, once again surprising Kakashi, having witnessed Naruto show worry towards something before wondering how he could possibly be able to use ki.

"The only Konoha Ninja to utilize ki...It's likely that one of his parents' relatives or ancestors married into the Hayabusa Clan or was born into it. If so...Either Kushina or Minato-sensei knew how to use ki, but weren't aware they could utilize it."

The next day
Afternoon

While Sasuke and Sakura were being trained by Kakashi, Naruto, having already learned how to control his chakra, had decided to check out the town, seeing it in a state of poverty and depression, clenching his fists as he fought the urge to go after Gato and kill him in cold blood. Minutes later, Naruto decided to go hunt for food and meditate after. Shooting an arrow, he kills a deer before walking over it and praying for it to go on to heaven, taking out a knife and skinning it after before checking the three rabbits he killed and the herbs he gathered. Satisfied with his hunt, he turns around to go back to Tazuna's, stopping when he sees Inari.

"Oh, you followed me...You think you can help carry these rabbits?" Inari said nothing as he turns around and leaves. "...That was rude..."

Night
Dinner

"Are you sure you want to be a ninja instead of a chef?" Tazuna joked as Naruto and his team ate with the old man and his family.

"Cooking is just a hobby and a routine of mine, and yes, I want to be a ninja, but my own kind."

"And what kind is that?" asked Sasuke.

"No comment," he responds as he finished the food in his bowl before asking for seconds. Turning to her right, Sakura noticed a portrait of Tazuna, Tsunami, Inari, and an unknown man, whose image was ripped out of it. The boy was smiling in the picture that was taken.

"Hey Tsunami?"

"What is it?" Tsunami asked Sakura.

"Who's that man in the picture?"

"It's a picture of Inari's father."

"Once upon a time, if you will...this land called him a hero." Inari, hearing the word "hero", suddenly gets angry and starts storming off to his room, slamming the door shut.

"FATHER! I told you never to mention that in front of my son!" Tsunami yelled.

"I sense a story coming up. Mind telling us who the man is, Old Man?" asked Naruto.

"...Very well, I'll tell you." Tazuna tells Team 7 all about Kaiza, a fisherman who became the hero of the Land of Waves and a father-figure to Inari. When Gatō arrived, he had Kaiza killed in an attempt to destroy the hope of the land, a strategy that sadly succeeded and traumatized him. To have a father executed in front of his son and every citizen in the Land of Waves made the blond sick. Gatō and his empire had to be brought down.

"I don't want seconds," said Naruto, getting up to go outside and "sleep".

"Are you sure? It's cold outside," Tsunami tells him. The blond does not respond as he closed the front door. During the night when everyone's fast asleep, Naruto puts on a face mask and takes out a scroll, which contains his bow and his tech shurikens. A messenger bird arrives, with a scroll attached to its leg.

"What've you got?" he asked the bird as he takes the scroll off of the bird's leg and reads it.

"Shipping routes, Hideouts, List of associates, Money safe locations...Ayane did a great job of gathering data for me."

Unnamed Gatou Hideout

At a good distance away from the entrance, Naruto throws two kunai at the guards standing at the front, hitting them in the head and killing them. Jumping up to the roof, Naruto secretly makes it inside. As he made his way to the entertainment room, he silently killed every thug he encounters before spying on a large area of thugs playing pool from the ceiling.

Naruto throws down a gas bomb as he interrupts their game. The thugs try to take Naruto on, only to have their lives taken by the lone ninja as he breaks bones, crushed heads by slamming them on a wall and/or stomping on them, severed limbs and tendons, and threw bodies through walls and windows. He even ripped a guy's spine and used it as a stabbing weapon for a time. One remaining thug tries to escape, only to have Naruto grab him by the back of his shirt and throw him at a wall.

"Wh-Who are you? What are you?" asked the thug, his face full of fear.

"I'm the one who's had enough of people like you terrorizing this land," he told him before throwing the thug at the pool table. The blond quickly grabs the man's head and bangs his face hand on the edge of the pool table. "I'm the one who'll cripple Gatō."

Naruto grabs the thug again and throws him at the bar. The thug grabs a sword and tries to attack the Genin, who caught the blade in his right hand and shatters it before slamming his hand on the table, breaking the thug's humerus after, receiving a scream of pain from the man.

"And you're the one who's going to help me send a message to him. Tell him that karma's coming to bite him in the ass and send him and his empire all to Hell and that this is only just the beginning."
