12: ESCORTING TAZUNA

ESCORTING TAZUNA

We then completed many missions ,most D-ranked ones assigned to us. Naruto kept on complaining about assigning higher ranked missions to us and due to his babbling Old gramps finally assigned us a C-ranked mission.2

We had to escort Mr.Tazuna to Hidden land of waves and protect him on the way.

"What are these brats doing here I thought I will be escorted by capable men but these are just 3 brats....." said tazuna.

"Ahh...Let me go Kakashi-sensei I am going to teach this old man a lesson."

"Nope you aren't going do anything like that. You can beat up our client naruto."

"Humph remember this old man you are going to be escorted by the future Hokage got it."

Sasuke/Sakura " Yeah right....."

Tazuna says " The day this brat becomes the Hokage ,I will take a round of the village with my hands on the ground and legs in the air."

I just smiled after hearing this. Kakashi injectes saying" Ok we are leaving so stop messing around you guys."

We travelled for 3 days and camped at nights

Naruto kept on grumbling as Sasuke beat up the thugs which tried to stop us on our way.

Next day we arrived at an unconstructed bridge as we sat on a boat and silently moved forward towards the Hidden land of waves.

Kakashi says "Mr.Tazuna please tell us the identity of the people who are after you and why ,if you can't then after we reach the shore our mission shall end there."

Tazuna says after sometime "*sigh* The person who is after me is a very terrifying individual , Gato."

Kakashi says visibly suprised "Gato of the Gato company ,one of the richest people in this world.....but that doesn't explain why he is after you and why you hid this information."

Tazuna says "Land of waves is a very poor country so we can't afford to request for A-ranked submission so that's why I didn't mention it in the mission as for why he is after me is because in land of waves every thing is dependent upon seas and he controls every port in the country so if this bridge's construction is completed ,his business of transferring drugs through the seas inside the bodies of travellers will experience a downfall as people will be able to safely travel through it and more people would be willing to invest in our country."

"And I am incharge of making this bridge if something were to happen to me then the construction won't continue and my grandson and daughter will live rest of their lives holding a grudge against Konoha, oh but that's not your mistake haha...."

Kakashi looks first at the brats then at me after seeing that I agree with him, he says " *Sigh* Guess we will be protecting you till you reach your home ."

Tazuna smiles as if saying "I win.."

We arrive at the shore and continued our journey as we moved through the forest to our destination .

After walking some distance Naruto was still grumbling about how Sasuke defeated those thugs ,so he suddenly rushes forward and throws a kunai randomly while saying " I sensed someone there." after saying so he was bombarded by Sakura saying " Yeah right...don't thrown a kunai so carelessly otherwise someone may get hurt because of you idiot....".

But while they were fooling around a person was watching them while thinking "This is problematic, these kids aren't a problem but those 2 with them are very terrifying individuals one *Kakashi the copy ninja of the sharingan" and "Red-eyed sword monster* I can't fight both of them at the same time I need to retreat and replan with haku."

{Woosh} he disappeared !!!!!

Though the kids didn't notice someone retreating ,but Kakashi and I surely noticed someone's presence ,I activated sharingan to observe the surrounding area but couldn't find anyone so deactivated it afterwards as Kakashi and I thought "So they have started making their move we need to be careful from ambushes."

Kakashi and I ,we both quickly moved into position. Kakashi in front and me at the back while Tazuna and the kids in middle.

We safely arrived at our destination

tazuna offered us to stay and return tomorrow and while leaving he shall also take us see the Bridge construction up close.

In the morning Kakashi and I ,we were teaching Naruto, Sasuke and Sakura on how to walk on water .

Kakashi "Concentrate your chakra on your shoes and slowly slowly spread it out so that your surface area will increase and you will be able to walk on water ."

Sasuke attempts to do it, very seriously as if he wanted to show me that he will also catch up to me and Itachi and become a great shinobi so that his elder bothers and the Uchiha clan would be proud of him.

After trying for sometime he finally is successful in doing so though he still can't stabilize his chakra. Naruto on the other hand has been trying for who knows how long , I went to teach him as Sakura was being taught by Kakashi as Sasuke was providing his experience of how it feels to her.

I said "Naruto take of your shoes." he looked at me confusingly but still complied then I told him "Concentrate chakra at the surface of your feet and try to compress it in a form of sheet ,then use only the amount of chakra you can manipulate and give shape to ,then slowly increase the amounts of chakra ."

He noded and after doing so for 5 min he was successful and started jumping up and down i said "Now now ....don't lose control ,try it with your shoes on just concentrate chakra on the whole shoe instead of your feet ."

After another 15min he succeeded by the time he did so Sakura has also learned walking on the water.

After training we began moving towards the bridge on the way I left a clone here to deal with the thugs Gato will sent to kidnap tazuna's family.We arrived at the bridge and saw that it was covered with fog but less thicker than that of the river.

Suddenly Kakashi yells "Everyone get down!!!!."

A large blade comes swinging towards us as except me everyone laid on the ground. Seeing me Sasuke shouted "Nii-san.....!!!!"

Just as the blade was about to pierce me ,it went straight through me and planted itself on a tree and a man appeared standing on the handle of the blade but he had a terrified expression on his face while I was thinking "So this is how Obito feels when he walks through stuff ,damn this is cool."

The three kids, tazuna and kakashi all were staring at me with their jaws wide open(well not kakashi because of the mask)as if I was a ghost. I smiled at them and asked "Is their anything on my face???."
