"A... he defeated us all... with a damn blunt katana... guh..."

A criminal collapsed to the ground, surrounded by a group of men and women who he worked with, who were all in a similar state of knocked out. There wasn't a single person who could remain standing, bruises and swelling over their bodies showed as their wounds of battle.

The lone person standing was not among their group.

An 18 year old young man, who was standing at a height of 180cm tall. With an orange kimono with black shoulders, opened at the chest to reveal a stomach wrapped in bandages, he was dressed without any armor. Unlike the armored criminals who had been defeated, their sharpened and blood stained weapons scattered on the ground. The man had a sword that was blunt, pristine in that it had no nicks or flaws in it. He carried two swords, and his other sword was sheathed away. Blond hair and blue eyes were his stranger features, but his strangest feature was his three whisker marks on each cheek.

"I hope I'm not too late because of this."

Dear Uzumaki Naruto,

I can not thank you enough for saving the life of my wife and myself. I am well aware of your reptuation as one of the greatest swordsman that Japan has produced in the past few centuries, and I must say that the skills I saw on that day did not leave me disappointed.

I wish to repay you for the great favor you paid me.

Befitting your status as a Ronin, you don't stay in one place for too long. It would dishonor by entire lineage if I did not repay the man who saved my life, and it would dishonor my great ancestors if I did not repay the man who saved my wife even more. With the great fortune telling powers those within my clan possess, I hope this letter finds you well.

I wish to end your status as a Ronin.

I am offering you a position as an Instructor for my daughter. I would greatly appreicate the change to pay you, and to allow you to serve a master once more. My daughter is Yukimura Sanada, and she is the current leader of the Toyotomi faction. She would benefit greatly from your experience, and I hope that you are as much a blessing to her as you were to us.

As a gift, I have had a special katana crafted just for you, with the Toyotomi branded onto it. The edge of this katana is blunt, a great sword for an instructor to use. You may keep this katana, even if you do not accept the offer.

My daughter studies at Buou Academy.

If you wish to accept, I implore you seek her out and present this letter to her.

With Eternal Gratitude, Former Leader of the Toyotomi faction.

"A nice, smooth job as an instructor... no more traveling all over by foot." Naruto smiled to himself as his previous actions he did with no intention of reward, were being rewarded greatly. He had just seen some people in need, and now he was being given a job as a samurai instructor to somebody important. It was an important job, because being an instructor was not just about teaching to kill.

It was about discipline, and making sure the next generation of leaders were disciplined was an extremely important job to do right. Getting the job at 18 would earn him the trust of those who he taught, which would lead to even more trust and work in the future. He might even become an advisor or some other important figure.

He thought that his chance at honest work had been long over.

When it was discovered by the head of the Tokugawa clan discovered that he was among the very few outside of the Shogun and Generals who had the power to turn a Samurai into a Master Samurai he went on the run. With his skills, he could train a samurai and take them to the top in skill, and then he could boost their abilities to the limits of samurai by transforming them into a Master Samurai.

It would be better for him if he didn't reveal that to too many people though.

He hoped that enough time had passed that his little ability had been forgotten.

"Uzumaki Naruto... by my life, I never thought I would see you again... are you here to kill people, or here to get killed... because only one of those things will happen." A young woman spoke up as she unsheathed her sword. She was with the others that he had knocked out no doubt.

Naruto smiled at her.

"Please don't make me hurt you, I have business and need to catch a train. If all goes well, I will no longer be a Ronin... if you stand in my way, then your life won't be promised to you." Naruto promised her pain if she continued to stand in his way. He kept walking towards her, because he really didn't have time to waste on her. The train left at a certain time, and he would need to get to it if he didn't want to walk the entire way to where he was going.

Naruto got within swing distance of the girl and kept walking, and she hesitated to swing her sword at him.

"You killed my father and brother... I will avenge them."

"I've killed many people who attacked me. I've never raised my sword against anyone who did not swing first." Naruto stated to the girl, and he walked by her. "If your father and brother are dead, they attacked me first... blame them, and do not seek revenge."

"You killed my brother's wife! She was an honorable samurai!"

"Did I?"

"Yes, you killed her brother!"

"So... a man attacked me, and I killed him. That man's sister attacked me, and I killed her. Her brother attacked me, and I killed him. That man's father attacked me, and I killed him... and now you plan to attack me..." Naruto summarized as he glanced back at the girl, and she stepped towards him with her sword in front of her. He hadn't even placed his hand on his sword yet. "... and who will attack me after I kill you?" Naruto asked the girl.

"You're a monster!"

"If I kill you, and somebody else who loves you attacks me... I will kill them to. So if you swing your sword, you might be sentencing another person to death." Naruto stated as he looked the girl up and down.

"HAH!"

The girl swung her sword.

Blood splattered as her kimono was slashed open, a wound appearing across her body as Naruto unsheathed his sword. Her sword went flying out of her hand, and he caught it before it hit the ground. She collapsed onto her back and grabbed her wound with both hands to stop the bleeding. Naruto stabbed her sword into the ground, before he started to walk away while sheathing his own sword.

"Monster... somebody else will come... somebody else will come to kill you."

"Then you've sentenced another person to death. When you try and kill somebody, you don't have the right to complain about being killed... I only... I only kill those who swing their sword at me first." Naruto had no intention of losing his life, simply because somebody else had a problem with him. As far as he was concerned, he did nothing wrong by slaying this girl or her family. She was crawling towards him with hatred in her eyes.

Hatred, a vile poison.

Her hatred had poisoned her with the need for revenge, and had led to her losing her life like a dog on the side of the road. It was unfortunate that she needed to die, but he wasn't going to lose his life for her goal.

"I... will... kill you..."

"You should have forsaken revenge. Seeking revenge rots your heart, and blackens your soul. I gave you the chance to turn away. I always pray that the last person I kill will be the last one. Still, more people always come to offer their lives up to me. That wound is fatal, but you might live... if you do live, abandon your revenge." Naruto continued walking as the girl passed out.

-Hours Later-

"Ah, it's been awhile since I've been around modern people. I guess wearing kimonos in public isn't in fashion as much anymore." Naruto saw many people were wearing more modern day clothes. It was strange to him, but he was raised by his much more traditional master. He couldn't so easily abandon his kimono or the old ways.

He wasn't getting strange looks or anything.

Well, he was getting a few because he was blond and had blue eyes, and because he was taller than 99% of the people he was around by well over a head. There were very few people who were as tall as him.

The average height of an adult Japanese man was 166cm after all.
The average height of an adult Japanese woman was shorter than that at 154cm.

Naruto was 180cm.

The different in height between a man and a woman, was still smaller than the height difference between him and other men. The funny part was that he was super short when he was younger, and now it was hard for him to find anyone around his height... and it made him a little self-conscious about it. He was just build different and it always attracted the stares of others. He was taller, build with slightly more muscle, and overall just a sturdier man than the men around him.

"Is that a foreigner... we don't get those from the west too often."

"Phew." Naruto sighed when he didn't here anything too negative. People were just questioning if he was Japanese or not, which he was used to. 'My clothes make me look less like a Japanese man, and more like a foreigner... it is kind of a shame.' Naruto sighed, but looked at the letter he kept with him again and smiled brightly.

His days as a Ronin were soon to be behind him.
