It's been a week since the battle between Naruto and Zabuza. During the week, Naruto and Tazuna had arrived to their destination, that being the wave village which was under the reign of Gato, a very wealthy business man who had taken over the wave village through his thugs.

When Naruto first entered the wave village, he couldn't help but feel a connection between him and the wave people as they appeared as he had when he was younger, something that he internally despised as he never wanted to form a connection with other's over past pains.

But as the days went by with him helping Tazuna and his family, including the small brat called Inari. The little brat had to say that he never had a tough life. Funny how that works out right?

But… He couldn't hold it against the kid. Sure he grew up and pushed through the pain, but if he hadn't met Kurama and hadn't gotten as strong as he had. He was sure that he would have turned out like Inari, an angry and cold child with barely any hope residing within him. Something that hurt him inside to realise that others had went through some form of pain just for another's gain.

And that made him realise something…

The world was cold to those who don't deserve it by those who do.

How exactly does it work like that? Those who are kind and generous are also the ones who are easily used and ruined while those who aren't are living happily.

With that thought in mind, Naruto spent the remainder of the week with Tazuna and his family, helping in any way he could through the use of kage bunshin.

However, he not only helped Tazuna, but everyone else within the village as he had created clones upon clones to stealthy find food to give to everyone, he even had started creating some temporary homeless shelters for those who were out on the streets, he did however have to place a genjutsu on it so Gato's men couldn't find it.

He was happy to say that it was working like a charm. So while no-one knew who was helping them, they were getting off a bit better now. Including, the soon to be raped woman and children who were saved through the use of genjutsu on the culprits that allowed them to imagine themselves raping the specified woman.

Why did he do this? So Gato's men didn't notice any difference within the public. He didn't want the little bastard, from Tazuna's words, to ruin the wave worse than it already was.

By the end of the week however, Naruto had managed to form a bond with the family members of Tazuna, including Inari who now called him "nii-chan". As such, he himself called the little brat "Itouto, which was simply "little brother." The kid however was ecstatic at the mention of that word, and that gave Naruto a warm grin.

However… Coming close towards the end of the week, Naruto could only release a sigh as he stared up towards the wooden house's celling. His body finally relaxing slightly as he sank into his futon for the night as his mind ran back towards his previous encounter with the demon of the mist.

It was purely luck that the man had underestimated him that much. Had he not… He wasn't sure he would have survived without showing a special ability of his.

But that had got him thinking back to what his special abilities. What exactly did he have? The sharingan, a mangekyou levelled version that he hasn't used all too much aside from using its strength with Kurama to erase his being from everyone's minds within konoha. His Kurama chakra mode, both the red malicious version and his golden versions… And… His chakra chains… Or more precisely… His special chakra, chakra that is able to take shape into a physical form that also has the ability to hold a bijuu effectively…

Suddenly, Naruto widened his eyes as he shot of his bed into a seating position as he held out a now fingerless gloved right hand up in front of himself.

Narrowing his eyes, Naruto began to send his chakra into his hand and summoned a small thin red chain which slowly became black as Naruto focused on it. Finishing his chain, Naruto gripped one end of it before tugging it, attempting to break it.

…It didn't budge an inch…

And because of that Naruto grinned as he once again focused on his right hand as he sent chakra towards it. However, unlike the last time. The chakra didn't take the shape of a chain, it took the shape of a thin black wire.

Once completed, Naruto once again attempted to rip the newly created wire, only to widen his grin as the wire was just as, if not since it was more refined, stronger than his chains.

Going off that basis, Naruto dropped the chain, watching as it became chakra once more and disappeared as soon as he lost contact with the wire.

Pointing his hand towards the wall opposite him, Naruto began to send chakra into his hand, once more creating the wire.

However, unlike the last time, the wire shot forth and attached itself onto the wall using the chakra Naruto was supplying to it.

Seeing the success of the technique, Naruto began to tug on the wire slightly and gave a pleasant grin as the wire's strength held true.

Dropping the wire, Naruto gained another idea as he once again began sending chakra into his hand.

And what came out of it…. Another hand, however, it wasn't as crisp as the wire and it was all blotched, a much blotched form of his Kurama chakra mode chakra hands if he had to compare.

But the idea was still there. Using his special Uzumaki chakra, Naruto would be able to use it in a way that he could only do with either Kurama's chakra mode, or his own imagination.

Knock, Knock, Knock

Hearing the Knock, Naruto turned his head towards the door before sending out a small chakra wire towards the door before turning the end of the wire into a chakra hand before opening it from afar, showing Tazuna's daughter Tsunami standing there with a concerned expression on her face as she looked towards him.

"Are you ok Naruto-kun? I head a few noise's coming from your room and I got worried." Asked Tsunami as she crossed her arms in worry, Naruto however waved her off with a small smile.

"I'm sorry I worried you Tsunami-san. I was just practicing some taijutsu moves before falling asleep, hope I hadn't disturbed your sleep with my ruckus." Replied Naruto with an easy tone, only getting a small shake of the head from Tsunami as she turned away from the door.

"No you haven't Naruto-kun. Sorry for overthinking it, I am just not used to having a child save the day you know… Thank you for doing this even if you didn't have to… Goodnight." Replied Tsunami as she sent him a small tearful smile as she walked away from the door, making sure to shut it as she left.

Shaking his head, Naruto could only chuckle slightly before hardening his eyes as he looked up towards the celling once more.

"Kurama. I have a bad feeling about tomorrow… I think Zabuza will be back with the fake hunter Nin early in the day. What's your view on this?" Asked Naruto as he shut his eyes and laid back down onto the futon, getting a shrug from the massive fox within him as it simply laid happily on the grass covered mindscape of Naruto.

"From what I can sense before he left, the senbon within his body would lose their effects once taken out of him, but the recovery would be that of a few days, a week at most. So I think he should attack tomorrow as well, however, that isn't taking into the account of your explosive seal to the head. So depending on his arrogance, he may come tomorrow or a few days later to battle once more, but this time he will likely have his partner also join in on the battle." Replied Kurama as he shut his eyes and felt the wind breeze pass through his orange fur as he waited for Naruto's response, however, instead of a response, Naruto simply hummed in agreement before falling asleep, much to his own amusement.

"Guess I'll take Naruto's lead." Muttered the bijuu as he relaxed himself before falling asleep along with his container.

(The next day)

Awaking at the time of 6:00am, Naruto pushed himself off his futon into a sitting position before putting his hands into a cross before muttering a quick "Kage bunshin" to quickly summon ten clones who then gave a quick nod towards their "boss" and disappeared within the shadows, something that Naruto felt satisfied about.

Getting out of his futon and standing up. Naruto could only release a slow yawn before reaching his room's door and walking out, his body now back on alert as he walked down the stairs towards the kitchen where he saw both Tazuna and Tsunami sitting at the kitchen table talking. Waiting for the two to finish, Naruto moved besides Tazuna and waited for him to give the "let's go" sign before giving a small wave towards Tsunami, who, had simply pushed a bento towards him.

And seeing as how he was sure that he had time to eat it… He dug right in as soon as he exited the front door, much to Tazuna's amusement.

Reaching the bridge didn't take all that long as one would think, however, when you have a genin that can lift a full grown tree with his jonin level strength, you can easily carry and old alcoholic towards a bridge.

When Naruto arrived at the bridge, he was happy to see what was left of Tazuna's workers working diligently as they approached.

It was always a good sight as Naruto summoned a good sixty odd clones to help speed up the production of the bridge, something that the workers themselves were ecstatic about.

It wasn't even a few hours later did Naruto come upon the sight of a heavy mist rolling in. And that set of his shinobi instincts… That plus the negative emotions he could feel a good couple of metres away.

Giving a clone of his a silent nod, the clone then began to grab onto the nearest person next to them before jumping away behind the original, his other clones soon followed as they formed a protective perimeter around the builders while Naruto summoned a small group of clones that aligned with him before all channelling chakra into their stomachs and mouths, within a span of ten seconds, the small group of Naruto's release a chakra enhanced breath of air, which, due to the multiple chakra enhanced breaths, destroyed the deep mist that was rolling in, showing Zabuza Momochi and his partner the fake hunter standing side by side at the opposing side of the mid-construction bridge.

Releasing the clones that helped Naruto blow away the wind, Naruto gave his opponents a look over, however, it seemed the only one who had any change of appearance was Zabuza, who now had a sleeveless black shirt with matching pants along with his previous mist, from what he was guessing, wrist and leg warmers along with his previous bandages wrapped around his mouth once more.

The hunter simply had the same get up as before, being the regular hunter Nin mask and a Kirigakure pinstriped outfit that ended towards the knees.

Seeing the two, Naruto pulled out two kunai from his pouch from behind his back and got into a defensive positon as he looked towards the two shinobi in front of him with a narrowed gaze.

"Well, well, well… If it isn't the self-dubbed "Black reaper" once more. I got to hand it to you kid. Knowing that Haku here wasn't a hunter Nin from simple gestures was an incredible achievement. However… I will complete my contract, and as such… You will die this time. Well kid, great to know that there was some actual child shinobi's out there in the world, too bad I have to kill one of them." Spoke Zabuza as he pointed his large zambato towards Naruto, who, simply narrowed his eyes as he sent chakra into his kunai, not that Zabuza and his companion "Haku" could tell.

"While I thank you for the compliment Zabuza-san. I will not let you kill my client. If he was to fall, so would the wave country. And for that, I not only am protecting Tazuna, but the entirety of the wave country on my shoulders…. Because of that… I WILL NOT LOSE!" Shouted Naruto as he sent his two kunai towards Zabuza with incredible speed, however, even then the missing ninja of Kiri managed to tilt his head out of the way, only giving a mocking laughter as he watched the kunai fly by, however, when he saw the grin on Naruto's face once more, he widened his eyes before tilting his head towards the kunai's, only watching as the fell towards the floor in a dead drop.

It was because of that moment that Zabuza thanked Haku for being there as by the time he looked back towards Naruto he was facing Haku in a short taijutsu battle with Naruto trying to break past Haku and Haku defending himself as best as possible.

Gripping his sword, the Kubikiribocho, Zabuza charged in towards the battle, joining Haku and putting Naruto on the defensive as he swung his massive blade.

Naruto, seeing Zabuza join the small taijutsu battle between him and the stupidly fast "Haku", cursed himself as his plan couldn't take into effect at the moment due to positioning, which, irritated him to no end as he pulled another two kunai from his back pouch as he jumped backwards to give him some room between him and his two opponents, who, were working in what appeared to be perfect unison, something that he internally cursed as he dodged both senbon barrage and big ass blade barrage.

Gritting his teeth, Naruto dodged an overhead strike from Zabuza before dropping to his knees and sending a sweep towards Zabuza, who simply jumped up into the air in order to miss the sweep.

However, in doing so he fell for Naruto's earlier plan.

With a silent poof of smoke, the two discarded kunai released a henge, showing two senbon launchers with a seal glowing a pale blue colour on top of the machines.

And with a quick spark of chakra from the seal, the senbons launched themselves into the air, directly towards Zabuza, who, widened his eyes at the simple, yet brilliant, move Naruto had done. However, much to his relief, and slight shame, Haku had managed to protect Zabuza…

…. By taking the ten odd senbon to the spine, making the fake hunter nin plummet as all functions of the body shut down for the hunter, sending him crash landing onto the hard bridge bellow, creating a small indent where he landed.

Seeing this, Zabuza widened his eyes in shock as blood began to flow through the mask of Haku. Something that only worried Zabuza internally before he summoned two water clones as he went towards his partner.

However, due to his distraction, he hadn't noticed the two clones dispel only seconds later. However, he hadn't paid attention to it as he reached Haku's body with sweat now drenching his brow as he raised his fore and middle finger towards his companion's neck.

He did this for over ten seconds… And in those ten seconds….

…. Nothing….

All was silent in the clearing as Naruto narrowed his eyes towards Zabuza, not knowing if Zabuza had planted a trap within the area he currently was, reason being this was the area that Zabuza, and his companion, had appeared on the bridge.

However, Naruto could only widen his eyes in shock as a deep purple shroud began to surround Zabuza as he sat on his knees with the hunter Nin's head held within his lap, the Kubikiribocho laid down beside him as he sat.

"….I'll kill you…." Was all Naruto heard as he suddenly got slammed against the railing of the bridge from a snapping kick from Zabuza, much to his shock as he quickly got his bearings from the strike before ducking a slash from Zabuza, only to widen his eyes as Zabuza's leg shot out and kicked his ducked head, sending him across the railing of the bridge.

Crashing into some equipment, Naruto shook the cobwebs from his head before snapping his eyes towards the now seemingly possessed Zabuza with a narrowed glare, the killing intent being nothing compared to Kurama's own which he was exposed through within his years of training.

Pushing himself up while grunting as he felt a rib of his began bend slightly at a wrong angle from the first kick, Naruto pushed himself up and pulled another two kunai out from his pouch, something that seemed to increase Zabuza's demonic shroud in size as the man began to sprint towards Naruto, who only widened his eyes in shock as he could not keep up.

Gritting his teeth, Naruto cursed himself for his weakness before sending chakra into his eyes, exposing his level three tomoe sharingan towards Zabuza, who, seemed to instantly notice the change as he sped up even more.

Too bad for him Naruto could now easily follow his movements as he slid between Zabuza's legs as the man attempted to do an overhead slice onto his still hurting body.

Using chakra to speed up his body, Naruto quickly jumped onto the man's back, sending chakra into his hands to create his new chakra wires which he then wrapped around the man's neck, something, in his likely blood lusted state, didn't notice as he combined the two wires that were created from his hands to form a wire that now wrapped around the man's neck.

Gritting his teeth as he attempted to hold onto the man, Naruto could only let out a shout as Zabuza twisted his body so that he could slam Naruto against the railing.

However, this only seemed to be a blessing in disguise as the shout caused Zabuza to release his hold on his blade as he went to clutch the ear that had been previously damaged the week before by Naruto.

Seeing this, Naruto narrowed his eyes as he began to send chakra into his throat before unleashing a piercing scream right into Zabuza's ear, only making the man scream in pain as his ear began to turn red.

However, the scream hadn't only made Zabuza lose his focus and attention, it had also made him unbalanced. Something Naruto had instantly taken opportunity of as he used all his strength to throw Zabuza off the bridge, still connected to the wire he had previously created around the man's neck.

Jumping off his back and back onto the bridge, Naruto quickly ran towards the other side before jumping off, making sure to supply chakra into the thread to extend it to a needed amount.

Lucky enough for him, Naruto's clones that had been protecting the bridge builders, had taken the initiative to jump off the bridge and grab onto Zabuza's legs as he was being strangled from the chakra wire.

Landing in a crouch on top of the water, Naruto could only look up towards Zabuza with a sad expression before dragging the wire towards his feet, only choking the man further as he attempted to break free from his predicament.

However… Naruto suddenly let go of the wire as his ears picked up voices above the bridge.

Turning his attention to his enemy, Naruto could only release a sigh as he had his two clones place seals upon him as he jumped back onto the bridge. Only coming face to face with what appeared to be a hundred bandits with the fake hunter Nin being held by a small business clad man with a happy expression.

"Too bad you had to die bitch. I would have loved to screw you before you died. Maybe a few of my men could fuck your dead body on top of that so called "Demon of the mist." Bah! Who cares! One less… Oh… Oh-ho! Still alive?! Brilliant!" Shouted the small man as he grabbed the apparent woman's face, who was now slightly awake, before slamming the head back onto the concrete floor, only causing Haku to scream in pain, something that made the men there laugh at before cheering Gato on.

However, it wasn't all that long before Naruto appeared besides both Haku and Gato, grabbing them both, Haku by the waist and Gato by the neck, Naruto reappeared with the shunshin towards where he had jumped back up onto the bridge.

It wasn't a few seconds later that Gato widened his eyes as he felt a hand wrap around his neck.

However, it wasn't Naruto's hand, it was Haku's.

"Y-y-you… B-b-betrayed… U-us…" Muttered Haku weakly as she then moved her head towards her past opponent, only widening her eyes as she looked upon the unscaled, from her view, Naruto standing with Gato held within his arm and her on his other one.

"N-n-n-no w-w-way…. Z-Z-Zabuza-sa-sama… W-w-what d-" "he's knocked out. That's it." Replied Naruto as he lowered his left arm down so that Haku could lay against the stone floor.

Focusing back onto the currently short man in his grasp, who had started to beg a few seconds ago, Naruto simply let the man go, which then sent the man onto the floor as Naruto sent a glare towards the back of the man's head.

"Gato… That's your name right…." Muttered Naruto with a deathly tone, only causing the man to widen his eyes in fear as he stared down towards the stone floor in deathly silence.

However, that silence disappeared when Naruto added onto what he began saying.

"… I was looking for a job… You are Gato right?" Asked Naruto, only causing the construction team that were building to open their eyes in pure shock and fear as they stared towards the now most powerful person on the bridge, who was now deciding to side with Gato.

Hearing that, Gato gave an evil grin as he stood up and turned around, only coming towards the sight of a black haired teen with golden streaks staring at him with the left eye slightly hidden with a bang of spiky hair.

Narrowing his eyes, Gato gave the teen a grin as he pointed towards himself.

"Yes. I am Gato. And if you are indee-" "Thanks for the information idiot." Replied Naruto, cutting off Gato as he stared into Gato's sunglasses covered eyes with his sharingan, extracting everything that would give both him and the wave money. This also included, but not limited, the shipping company Gato had, the bank account passwords he stored within his tiny head, along with his secret base within the wave which held a small fortune worth of scrolls and currency.

Finishing with the extracting, Naruto whipped a kunai from his pouch before stabbing the still frozen man in the forehead, effectively killing him.

All was silent as both the builders and bandits stared towards the black haired teen. However, before the shouts of happiness could ring out from the builders, the bandits charged, their meal ticket now gone.

Seeing this, Naruto simply stared at the oncoming enemy group before throwing his kunai towards the group.

"Kunai Kage bunshin no jutsu" Muttered Naruto with a dead tone, watching as the sole kunai soon became hundreds as they pierced through each and every bandit in his wake.

When it was all done and dusted, Naruto could only narrow his eyes at the sight of all the now dead bodies before releasing a sigh before walking towards the edge of the bridge and puking out his breakfast.

Sure he had killed the kumo head ninja before, but he hadn't had a firsthand view of it, just a memory of it.

But this time…. It was all him…

Shaking his head after cleaning his mouth, Naruto turned his attention back towards where the bridge builders were and only widened his eyes in surprise when he saw Inari and what appeared to be every single villager, including other children, all holding make shift weapons towards the beginning of the bridge.

However, it seemed that it wasn't needed when they came upon the sight of Naruto standing next to the now dead, and bleeding, Gato.

Thud….

A single thud had been heard before a few more began to follow in its footsteps as the citizens of the wave stared upon the dead form of the man who had made their lives complete hell.

However, the silence soon ended when Inari walked across the silent bridge before coming to a stop just in front of Naruto, who had taken to looking away slightly as he prepared for himself to be called a monster.

But that thought was soon destroyed as Inari wrapped his arms around Naruto's waist and began to cry in joy.

"NII-SAN! THANK YOU!" Screamed Inari as he cried into the black baggy pants of Naruto, who, simply gave a small resigned smile as he moved his left hand towards Inari's bucket hat before rubbing it slightly.

"I said it before Inari… And I'll say it again…." Muttered Naruto silently as he looked towards the now fast approaching wave villagers who were screaming in joy at their saviour.

"…. A hero always arrives just on the nick of time…" Muttered Naruto with a smile as he got surrounded by the villagers as they each attempted to give their thanks to their saviour.

However, it was soon stopped when Naruto himself calmed the crowd down before walking towards the still slightly paralysed Haku, who, had stared up towards Naruto in sadness as she shut her eyes.

"… Do it… Kill me…" Muttered Haku, only hearing silence for a few moments before a thud was heard besides her.

However, when the thud besides her made a sound, Haku instantly snapped her eyes wide open, coming towards the sight of someone she had thought she had lost.

"Z-Zabuza-sama…" Muttered Haku in shock. She had thought with Naruto being alive that Zabuza had died… It seemed that wasn't the case however.

Hearing a voice, Zabuza sent his tired eyes towards his left, coming towards the sight of Haku's own brown orbs.

"H-Haku… G-guess I was allowed to see my daughter once more before being sent to hell… Thank you kami for this chance…." Muttered Zabuza as he reached a single hand out towards Haku's face, who had a worried look upon it.

However, before Haku could respond, Naruto couldn't help himself but make himself known.

"While I do thank you for calling me kami Zabuza, I know for a fact I aren't one. Especially since as the "black reaper" I would be the complete opposite of Kami." Spoke Naruto, drawing the attention of the older man, who, widened his eyes in shock as the memories of him being chocked to death registered back into his mind.

Sadly enough, before Zabuza could open his mouth, Naruto took it upon himself to explain the situation.

"Zabuza Momochi… Haku Momochi… We have some things to discuss." Spoke Naruto in bland tone, worrying the two as they looked up towards the self-dubbed "black reaper".

And that is it for me, hope you enjoyed the chapter.
