Wave Mission part 5

"What do you mean brat?" Zabuza asked while breathing deeply and using his sword to keep himself standing upright.

"Fufufu well Zabuza-kun it just so happens to be your current employer and if my guess is right he is here to kill all the men and capture all the women most likely. He is a businessman after all Zabuza-kun why you would think that he would actually pay you is beyond me. He always planned to betray you and capture the woman in your group. Kunoichi are worth quite a lot as sex slaves I hear " Naruko said, smiling at him.

Zabuza turned to look at her processing what Naruko just said and couldn't help but agree somewhat with what she was saying. "I always knew that Gato was scum just didn't think he would have the balls to betray me and my group." Gritting his teeth "Well if he thinks it is going to go as he planned he has another thing coming, oi brat can you patch me up or something. I want to personally kill that little fucking midget."

Walking toward Zabuza "Sure can do Zabuza-kun, I'll let you have Gato but the bandits themselves are mine." Naruko then slapped a healing seal on him that works like someone is using the mystic palm jutsu but simpler since all it needs is someone to put chakra into it for it to work. Thus Zabuza was slowly healing enough to where he would be able to move without being hindered too much.

It is then that everyone met back up with Naruko and Zabuza. We can see Gaara and Rikku casually walking next to each other almost like they were not just having a fight not that long ago. Haku was dragging Sasuke by his foot and didn't even bother to take her senbon out of him. Fuka was much in the same scenario with dragging Kakashi but with her hair behind her. Anko was leading Tazuna and Sakura to them as well since she figured all the fighting was done since she couldn't hear anyone fighting anymore.

When Sakura saw Sasuke she screamed and dashed toward him, completely ignoring everyone else around her and checking on him and trying to wake him up. This went on for a little bit but Naruko couldn't handle Sakura's voice anymore. "Haku be a dear and silence her please if you would." Naruko asked, which Haku complied with and put her into a similar state as Sasuke must to the relief of everyone there as Sakura slump over Sasuke. In the end she got her wish to lay with her Sasuke-kun but would never know.

"Now it seems that everyone had fun some more than others." Naruko looks at Fuka and Haku who sported a slight blush on their face being stared at by Naruko. "Well Gato finally decided to show up and he brought all of his little bandits with him. What the fucker doesn't know is that he is doing us a favor by coming to us like this. Now we can end this once and for all. Zabuza will deal with Gato himself while me and anyone that wants to join can take on the bandits. So who wants to have some fun with me." Naruko asked, looking at everyone that was still capable of fighting right now.

In the end everyone but Haku volunteered themselves since they wanted to have some fun and relieve some stress. Naruko had Haku protect Tazuna and team 7 after she explained to the man that they were on the same side now to which the man just shrugged happy internally that they weren't trying to kill him anymore. And so they waited for Gato and his bandits to come closer to them all.

Gato and his bandit man finally became visible to the shinobi group. When Gato saw them he was shocked that so many of them were alive because this isn't how the plan was supposed to go. 'What the fuck is going on. There were only supposed to be like 2 maybe 3 survivors preferable the woman so that we can kill or capture them. So why the hell am I looking at so many of them still alive and kicking. Damn idiot missing-nin couldn't even do his job properly. No matter, I have 60 bandits with me. They have to be tried at the very least so they should go down without a problem.' Gato thought while he was wearing a smug smile on his face unaware the danger he was in.

Standing in front of his little bandit gang. "Zabuza I see you have failed me yet again. Well it doesn't matter in the end I wasn't going to pay you lot anyway. I hope you understand it's just business and you're clearly not worth the money." Gato said in a smug tone believing that he is in control of the situation. "Now boys kill all the men and capture all of the women and I'll let you lot, have some fun with them before I sell them off." Once Gato said this the men shouted out in joy especially when they saw how the girls looked. It must be noted that due to how chakra works and all the training Kunoichi goes through they always have an amazing face and body which a civilian could never beat.

Once the woman heard this they were extremely angry inside and couldn't wait to kill these group of bandits. "Gato you little fucking midget you made a big mistake coming here and then betraying me. Now you will die." Zabuza yelled out toward the little midget.

"Now, now Zabuza-kun don't kill him right away. Killing him instantly would be too good for a man like him, why don't you capture him first. Then we can have a little chat with him to give us all of his money, we could put it to good use for your little rebellion. For a man like Gato, money is his life blood so taking it from him will truly make him suffer then you can kill afterward." Naruko lightly whispered to Zabuza. He agreed in the end since what Naruko said made sense and it would make getting revenge that much sweeter for him.

"Great well I don't know about you but I'm ready to have some fun so shall we Gar-kun and girls." Naruko and the others all dashed forward to attack the bandit group while Zabuza went to capture Gato.

Seeing them charging at him and his group "Quickly get to work you lot, you know what you have to do." The bandits then charged forward leaving while Gato stayed behind thinking that he was safe which couldn't be further from the truth.

The next few minutes were like a scene from a nightmare to Gato as he watched as his men were killed easily. The bandits couldn't even get a hit on the shinobi before they were killed and none of them had a complete corpse when they died. It was a bloodbath in other words. Zabuza easily got behind Gato since the man was in shock watching the scene in front of him. He put Gato's head in the hole in Kubikiri, when Gato finally noticed him and his sword he started shaking all over his body but didn't dare move otherwise he would lose his head.

After the group killed the last of the bandits Naruko walked up to the where Zabuza and Gato was and used a genjutsu on the man that made him tell her where all his assists were at and have him sign a will giving all of his business to herself. Hey what can she say, the man may have been trash but he was a well connected and rich piece of trash. Why should she let those things go to waste when she could use them.

Once that part was over with, she canceled her genjutsu and then kindly explained what she did to him and the look on his face was quite funny to see and Zabuza truly enjoyed it based on what Naruko could see. "Alright Zabuza-kun he is all yours." Naruko said.

"WAI…" He didn't get to say anything else because Zabuza cut his head off his body. Afterward everyone looted all the bandit bodies and properly disposed of them all and woke up all of the laborers on the bridge. Tazuna was extremely happy that the menace was finally gone as were all the labors that were with him on the bridge. It can be said that Naruko made out like a bandit here in wave country with all the money and connections that she made not to mention gaining a country itself.

****

It's been a few days since the bridge incident and the village has truly prospered now with the threat of Gato and his bandit group gone. Naruko was treated like an even bigger hero when she was kind enough to give them all the money that Gato took from them and a little extra for their suffering.

When it came to team 7, their reaction was quite interesting when they heard that Zabuza and his group were joining them. Kakashi didn't care very much but he kept giving glances at Fuka once in a while when he thought no one was looking, something that Fuka noticed pretty quickly and would constantly flirt with the man and tease him. Sai didn't really care but he tried to give the Uzumaki sisters Fuka and Rikku weird nicknames since apparently that's his thing, let's just say he never made that mistake again.

Sasuke was extremely pissed and tried to fight the group again for some crazy reason. Let's just say he spent a lot of time sleeping the past few days, something that Kakashi didn't really mind since the mission was basically over and he was getting rather annoyed with his student. Sakura for some reason got it in her head that all of the women were after her Sasuke-kun even when they told her that they weren't and would never be but she didn't believe them. So while she was pissed and angry that they kept knocking out Sasuke she was also happy because this gave her a chance to take care of him all alone in the room for what they did only she would know.

Sitting in the dining room table we have Naruko and her group with Kakashi and his team with Tazuna and his family, even the little annoying boy is there who finally stopped being so emo after he heard of Gato's death.

"Well the bridge is all done finally. So what next?" Tazuna asked while taking a sip of his flask.

"Father shouldn't we name the bridge before anything." Tsunami asked while she was holding her son in her lap.

"Ha ha your right Tsunami, and I have the perfect name the great Tazuna bridge." He was then smacked in the back of the head by Tsunami.

"I think that hope bridge sounds better don't you think mother." Inari said while he looked at everyone in the room and most agreed with him since that is what the bridge brought after all. Tazuna seeing everyone basically agreeing decided that they will go with that name but he still thought his name would have been better.

"Well team 7 our mission is officially over and we should head back to Konoha. Tazuna don't forget what we talked about for the rest of the payment for the mission." said man just nods his head showing that he knows. " Anko what are you and your team going to be doing now?" Kakashi asked while he continued to read his little orange book ignoring the looks that some of the women are sending him.

"Oh well me and my team along with Zabuza and his little group are going to make a slight detour to the land of water before heading back to the village. Shouldn't take too long." Anko said while she was playing with a kunai in her hand.

Kakashi hearing this actually put his book down to look at Anko "You do know what's going on over there right. Why would you be going there especially with Gaara and Naruko?"

Anko just shrugged her shoulders and then gestured for him to ask Naruko. "It's simple Kakashi, it sounds like fun." Naruko said with a happy smile on her face.

Rubbing the bridge of his nose already knowing he isn't going to like this conversation. "Fun seriously, there is a civil war going on right now in the land of water. It's far too dangerous for you guys to go over there right now to just have fun as you say. So what are you really planning Naruko?" Kakashi asked.

"Wouldn't you like to know." Naruko answered back, rocking back and forth in her chair.

"Yes I would. I know for a fact there is no way you're authorized to go on this little trip to a land known to be having a civil war right now." Kakashi said back.

"But Kakashi here's the thing that is different between me and you. I do what I want, I'm going regardless of what anyone says. A deal was made that must be fulfilled. But since you're going back to the village before us you can inform the hokage that I'll be coming back in time for the Chunin exams and I'll most likely be bringing some guests if all things work out like I know they will." Naruko said, then stood up from the table getting ready to leave Tazuna's house.

"Zabuza, Fuka, Rikku, Haku, Gar-kun, Anko-chan let's get going the sooner we get there the sooner we can end that civil war and then go back to Konoha."

Watching them get ready to leave Sakura couldn't hold it in anymore and had to say something, she never liked Naruko and wanted her to suffer in some way. "Kakashi-sensei are you really just going to let them leave like that? They are going against Konoha laws by making a trip like this." Sakura stated in a righteous tone that sounded so fake to everyone there.

Sighting to himself "There is nothing that I can do here Sakura, I'm not in charge of them and Naruko knows this. While she knows what she is doing is wrong, she also knows that if she can bring benefits to Konoha then she will be let off any would be punishment when she gets back. This is politics, Sakura something that Naruko clearly knows very well. " Naruko sends him a smug smile because that is exactly what she is doing.

"I'm glad that you realize how helpless you are in this situation. Most people would try to force the matter till they got what they wanted. I'm glad that you are not one of them, Kakashi, my respect for you went up just a little bit now." Kakashi hearing what Naruko said was happy internally that his sensei's daughter's opinion of him went up even if he didn't like what she was about to do.

"Hey dewb take me with you, I want to fight too." Sasuke spoke up finally. 'I could use this civil war to unlock my sharrigan and get stronger. What I desperately need is experience and what better way than joining a civil war.'

"No, you will follow me back to the village. You are not strong enough to survive something like that Sasuke. If you want to get stronger then I'll train you when we get back to the village for the chunin exams that are coming up. I was originally going to be a surprise for you and the others with the news of the chunin exams but seeing as there is no point anymore so might as well make you guys stronger for it sooner." Kakashi said with an eye smile on his face hoping that this was enough to placat the emo avenger. Which it seemed to if the grunt he got in return was anything to go by.

Seeing that there was nothing else to talk about Naruko walked next to Tazune before she left the house "I'll be leaving a blood clone behind to work as both your advisor and protection, so do not disappoint me Tazuna. I'll be sending more help in the future to really make this land prosper and turn it into a trading hub for the world." Naruko whispered into his ear so that no one else could hear her especially Kakashi since she didn't want him to know what she had planned here yet at least.

"Tsunami thank you for letting us stay here with you for the little time that we were here. If you ever need anything please don't be afraid to ask me for help. My door is always open for you and your son." Naruko says while rubbing Inari's head, making the boy blush at her actions.

"Thank you Naruko, we will do just that won't we Inari." said boy nods his head agreeing with his mother. " You have done much for our village in our time of need so you will always be welcomed here at my house Naruko." Tsunami then puts Inari down and gives Naruko a motherly hug, something that she returns enjoying the feeling for a moment before they separate.

"Well we will be off now, come along my little group let's go fight in a civil war and free yet another country. Hey at this rate I'm going. I'm going to end up saving every country I visit." Naruko laughed out loud which made some of the others laugh with her because what she says is true in a sense.

****

It's been a day since they left the land of waves and made it to the land of water. Zabuza has been leading the way since he is the only one that knows where the main hideout of the rebellion is right now which is led by his old friend Mei Terumi, a woman that apparently has two bloodline limits from what Zabuza says. She has Lava release and Boil release making her a very strong kunoichi which is why she is the leader of the rebellion.

"Whatever you do, don't mention Mei's age, for some reason it sets her off something I'll never understand." Zabuza says while shaking his head thinking about all the arguments that he got into with her about her age.

"Zabuza-sama, I worry about your future sometimes if you can't even understand the problem." Haku said, worried about her father figure while all the women in the group couldn't help but agree with her thoughts.

Sometime later they finally arrived at the main headquarters "Alright let me and my group go forward first and let them know about you then we will go from there." Zabuza said then he and his group talked to the guards and then disappeared inside to go and talk to Mei.

While they were gone "So Naru-chan how are we going to avoid the punishment that we all know is coming for coming here." Anko asked while leaning on Naruko.

"It's simple Anko-chan, this Mei Terumi will most likely be the new Mizukage so if we help her out and win this little war then we can ask her for an alliance for our trouble. I think a new alliance treaty would be something that the old man would absolutely love given his nature. Since Kiri could actually help us out with trade when they get back up on their feet they would make a valuable ally. Especially over someone like Suna that doesn't really provide us anything but a few rare resources that almost aren't worth the trouble. Don't forget that we technically stole their jinchuuriki and once they find that out they will most likely cease their alliance with us over it. So having another alliance with someone else would stop them from trying to use the alliance treaty against us somehow giving us the advantage in negotiation when the time comes." Naruko explained to the two.

"You don't have to worry big sis I would never go back to the village. My home is with you always." Gaara said giving one of his rare smiles toward Naruko, which made Anko pull him close and into a big hug with Naruko.

"Oh you're just so cute sometimes Gar-kun especially when you smile like that. You don't have to worry we would never let you go anyway isn't that right Naru-chan." Anko said while rubbing her face against theirs.

"Of course Anko-chan, anyone who tries to take my little brother away from me wouldn't like the consequences. I'd kill anyone that tried no matter who they are." Naruko said with clear determination in her voice.

'Aww aren't you cute Naru-chan protecting Gar-kun like that. I knew I made the right choice by trusting you.' Ahri said, having a smile on her face.

While Gaara was having his own conversation with Shukaku 'I'm starting to like this little girl Gaara. I'm looking forward to fighting in this little war that you pitiful humans started, we haven't had a chance to really cut loose in a while.' Shukaku said

'Yes big sis is the best after all and don't worry you will have your fun I promise you.' Gaara said back, making Shukaku a very happy tanuki.

It is then that Zabuza showed back up with his group and one extra person who Naruko assumed was Mei Terumi. Once Naruko got a good look at Mei she must say that she was a extremely beautiful woman.

"Hello there I'm Mei Terumi the leader of the rebellion, Zabuza has told me a little about you and your little group. I appreciate any help that you can give us to help end this war ." Mei says performing a slight bow toward Naruko and her group.

Naruko walked forward and linked her arm with Mei's "Zabuza never told me just how beautiful you truly were Mei shame on him. Please lead the way and we can discuss more inside." Making Mei smile at her complement.

"But of course, please follow me inside." Mei said while she led everyone to the main tent to talk.
