15 Chapter 14 - It Strike Again

While Ren was checking on Sasuke and Sakura, the situation on Zabusa front took another turn, just as Kakashi was about to finish off Zabusa, his employer Gato with shaggy brown hair and sports a pair of small, circular black glasses, he wears a black suit with a purple tie, a yellow shirt underneath his coat and closed-toed shoes, came with an army of thugs and starts talking about how he doesn't trust ninja and that he hired missing-nin so that he can weaken both parties and kill them with numbers all at low-cost.

After that Zabusa says "Kakashi, I'm sorry our fight is over, now that I have no reason to go after Tazuna, i have no reason to fight you" and Kakashi realize "Ah, you are right", then Gato notice Haku "corpse" and remember the fact that he broke is arm so out of spite he kick Haku's "corpse".

This thing piss off Naruto "What are you doing you bastard?" and start rushing at Gato but was stopped by Kakashi that said" Hey look at their number! do not just jump in" then Naruto says to Zabusa"Say something too weren't you friends?"

"Shut up kid, Haku is already dead..." say an impossible Zabusa and while Naruto ask if he didn't feel anything for Haku's death,Zabusa explain"As I was used by Gato, I used Haku that is all it was...i already said in the world of shinobi, there are only those who use and those who are used."

And continue"We shinobi are only tools...what i wanted was his kekkei genkai not him...i have no regret." and before Kakashi was able to stop him, Naruto decide to use the ultimate legacy of Konoha the one, the only ...Talk no Jutsu.

"Do you really mean that? He....he really loved you, he loved you so much,Do you really feel nothing? ,Do you really...really not feel anything?" and while crying "He threw away his life for you, without his own dream to die as a tool....that's ....just too sad..." and Zabusa was hit too fast,too loud,too strong and without mental preparation he.....fell for it.

And so Zabusa start crying and say to Naruto"...Kid...you don't need to say any more...kid...it pained him to have to fight you...Haku fought not only for me... he fought for you too,he was too kind."then turn and face Gato again "I'm glad I faced you guy in the end, yeah kid you may be right, a shinobi is still a human, we may not be able to be emotionless tool...i've lost"

Seeing this scene for real almost stunned Ren 'My god...I thought that i was fooling myself, but it is real,as real as chakra...the Talk no Jutsu really exist you really can brainwash your enemy by just using few words...how scary' and at that moment he heard Senbozakura 'Ren-dono you should move...'.

And so Ren used Shunpo and appeared in front of Zabusa that was about to rush in and kill Gato and himself,Naruto still crying and Kakashi "I'm sorry for kinda ruining your moment but I have to say it...that Haku guy is kinda still alive...even if barely " hearing that the kunai falls from Zabusa mouth"What....."is all Zabusa can say.

"Well while all the dramas was going on ,i did some first aid on him and checked on emo-boy...by the way Naruto ,Sasuke is still alive, but more important let's take care of this problem first" then Ren draw his sword and turn to the strangely waiting mob.

And now tired Kakashi says"Wait...Ren is it better to delay as much as possible and wait for the rest of your team...." but Ren replies "No way...i waited for so long to let loose..do not worry Kakashi-san it's all under control after all my team is already here..." as soon as Ren finished saying that from behind the mob the voice of the twins could be heard saying,

"Katon/Futon Renkeijutsu: Dai Ryūka no Jutsu(Fire/Wind Release: Great Dragon Fire Technique)" and so a big stream of fire hits the back lines of the mob setting on fire more than a dozen bandits who to save themself jumped in the water from bridge.

While the mob was in chaos Ren gave a kunai to Zabusa who's like in the original timeline, decapitated Gato, then went in the chaotic mob to knock out as many bandits as possible and was soon joined by Taro who used Konoha basic taijutsu supported by Jiro shurikenjutsu and soon after the mob of civilian roused by the kid Inari.

Zabusa now exhausted lied himself down next to Haku and closes his eyes, unlike the original timeline, this time the only wound he has are the one he got from fighting Kakashi so while still heavily injured he isn't in dying.

Meanwhile Sasuke woke up and with Sakura,Naruto, Kakashi and Hayate Gekko they watched as the bandits left ran away from the bridge.

While the villagers where happy to be finally free, Team 7 and Team 17 where around the unconscious Zabusa and Haku,"So what is gonna happen to them?" ask a worried Naruto "We should capture them and interrogate on any info they could have" replies Kakashi, "Or we could just kill them" suggest the ever-emo Sasuke,"ehm can I suggest something?" ask Ren.

Kakashi looks at Hayate and seeing him nod"Go on...",Ren think how elaborate better for a few second and say "Well Zabusa is a missing-nin from Kiri right?but that doesn't mean he is wanted by Konoha so why not make him one of our own? Even if he doesn't want to become a Konoha ninja we can make him create a hidden group outside of Konoha that takes care of problem or information that Konoha officially can't and in exchange for some territory in the land of fire where he and Haku can live in peace while they aren't doing mission. of is this as an idea"

While Kakashi and Hayate were thinking about Ren's proposal Naruto yelled "I like it!" while Sasuke was brooding , Sakura staring at Sasuke and the twins where on the look out.

Then Kakashi said "Before I send the Hokage this proposal we have to see what Zabusa and Haku want to do and to do that they have to be alive so for now let's take care of their injuries while team 7 and team 17 take turn to guard the construction and the for now prisoners" and Hayate "Well Kakashi-san know you and your team go and take care of your injuries and rest, Ren take care of the prisoners while I ,Taro and Jiro will be on guard duty".
