Hostages Against Kakashi

Everyone turned to look in their direction. Gato's men were walking menacingly towards them, carrying swords, sticks and all sorts of weapons.

Old man Tazuna's eyes were wide open, as he spotted Tsunami and Inari among them. They both had their hands tied in front of them, and they were dragged separately by two men. They had fear-filled eyes and looked exhausted.

"Father!" Tsunami screamed for help while being restrained. 

"Grandpa!" Inari also screamed for help, and he couldn't help but feel a little hopeful when he spotted Kakashi. 

"Look, that's Tsunami and Inari right there!" said Tazuna to Kakashi, pointing at them. Intense fear gripped his heart. His daughter and grandchild were captured! 

A thought came to Sakura's mind when she saw all the thugs. 

There were too many, and even Sasuke wouldn't be able to defeat all of them. But Kakashi-sensei would do something, would he not? 

As if Kakashi read her mind, he put his hand on her shoulder pointed at the shotgun: "Didn't I say that I'll make you strong, Sakura? With this, you can even have the ability to deal with those dummies." 

Sakura suddenly realized that Kakashi was telling the truth. She felt a wave of confidence wash over her. With the shotgun, she felt that she could take many of them down just by herself.

So what if Sasuke is not strong enough, she thought, excitement taking over, I'll shoot their asses off! Chaa!!. 

When the thugs had gotten to the middle of the bridge, Gato gave the signal for his thugs not to move further. He moved forward with his two main bodyguards.

Kakashi took it as a cue, and moved forward too, with Naruto and Sakura trailing behind him.

Kakashi scrutinized Gato, and decided to kill him on the spot. He looked exactly how he was in the main series. He was fat, pot-bellied and wore a weird looking suit. His hair was very spiky and long, and it reminded him of hedgehogs. He wore a pair of small round black glasses, which added to the proud and smug look plastered on his face. He carried himself with high confidence, and had a certain power aura.

When they both met each other, Gato glanced at the dead bodies of Zabuza and Haku and let a wide grin spread round his face.

"Kakashi Hatake of the village Hidden in the Leaves. You did this to them?"

"Yes," said Kakashi, digging his hands into his pockets.

"I like you. Work for me, and you'll get everything you want." Gato said with a smirk.

"Not interested, fat ass," Kakashi replied, and Gato's eyebrows creased, forming a frown. 

He would pay very dearly for that attitude, Gato thought.

"I'm here to make a deal, not like you have much of a choice anyway," Gato continued, his face twisting in an ugly grin.

"What deal?" 

Kakashi seemed unfazed, and Gato hated the fatty's guts. 

"I want this old man," Gato continued, gesturing towards Tazuna, "In exchange for the woman and child."

Naruto lost his cool.

"You want to exchange a father with his family members?, what are you goi…"

"And if I refuse, you're going to kill them?" Kakashi interrupted Naruto. He wanted the pig to revel in his 'win' before he takes everything from it. In the first place, he purposely took everyone to the bridge so that Tsunami and Inari could be captured. 

Was he afraid that Tsunami and Inari could be harmed? No, he wasn't in the slightest. They could both die for all he cared. It really doesn't affect him at all. 

Gato grinned.

"As obstinate you may seem, you really do understand the situation. You are outnumbered, and I could really kill everyone here. You are smart, Kakashi, and I respect that. I feel impressed." Gato didn't seem fazed and tried to convince Kakashi again. 

Kakashi smiled inwardly and pointed his real pistol at them at full speed. He shot three times, one bullet per person, to the head. 

[ Scumbag Points +3! ] 

[ Scumbag Points +3! ] 

[ Scumbag Points +3! ] 

Gato fell down, his blood forming a puddle underneath his head. The thugs that were holding onto Tsunami and Inari were also free. 

"Well, I'm not impressed," Kakashi said, before turning to Naruto. Naruto looked proud of him.

The rest of the thugs were shocked. They couldn't even react in time when Tsunami and Inari began running towards Kakashi and co. 

"Naruto, you know what to do. Aim for the legs," said Kakashi. He then looked at Sakura... and yeah, she was useless again in this situation. He only highlight was shooting Zabuza. 

"Ayyyyye!" screamed Naruto, as he weaved hand signs and yelled the name of his newest ultimate jutsu. 

"Multi-shadow clone jutsu! Special submachine gun barrage!!"

Multiple clones of Naruto with his submachine gun appeared, and began the shooting spree.

Kakashi gestured to Tsunami and Inari to lie down flat on the floor of the bridge, and they quickly obeyed, afraid to die. Naruto made sure to disable the legs of most of the thugs, while few jumped into the engine boats they had come in, trying to escape. 

Blood had splattered everywhere on the bridge, and some of the people of the village had come to find out what was going on. They had come over due to the constant noises. 

Naruto had stopped his shooting. Most of the thugs were still alive, only being disabled. Some were dead, however. It was inevitable because of Naruto's shitty shots. 

Sakura ran to untie Tsunami and Inari, who then ran into the arms of old man Tazuna. The three of them broke down in tears as they hugged each other, and it was so emotional that tears appeared from the corner of Sakura's eyes. They were like that for a while. 

"Alright, Naruto," said Kakashi, putting his arms over Naruto's shoulder. "We are going to teach these bad guys a lesson, Are you with me?"

"Are you talking about your Kunai-ass lesson?," asked Naruto sarcastically. Making his enemy drink piss? Shove kunais into their asses? He didn't want to… but if his sensei says so… 

"Yup!" Kakashi beamed, and Sasuke scrunched his face up in disgust. Really sensei?

With the help of Naruto and his multiple shadow clones, all the fallen thugs were tied on one side of the bridge. Naruto felt pity for them, but they deserved it.

Kakashi logged into his Scumbag System Shop and bought a sixty pieces of metal forks, which was the number of men Naruto disabled. The whole batch costing 5 points. 

They materialized in a box and dropped in Kakashi's hand.

"Kakashi-sensei," Naruto called out. "When are you going to teach me how to be a sage like you? I wanna do the stuff you do. It's so awesome."

Even though Kakashi Sensei's actions were a little... unorthodox, Naruto couldn't help but want to be strong like him.
