Return To Konoha

....

Naruto walked towards the exhausted Zabuza who was lying on the floor because of the fatigue. Naruto then said "Since Gato is already dead the enmity between us can be considered null right".

Zabuza weakly looked at Naruto while still lying down and said "I considered you an enemy, I did everything for money and by the way I don't think I can make it alive because of the few fractured ribs I have in my body as for healing I don't think is in any condition to-"

Naruto interrupted Zabuza midway and said "Wait wait wait, I just asked for the enmity between us I don't want to hear you ranting about your condition, you attacked first, I am not responsible for any of that".

As Naruto crouched down beside Zabuza, he focused his chakra, channeling it through his hand. A vibrant green hue began to emanate from Naruto's palm, swirling and pulsating with energy. Naruto could feel the power of his chakra weaving its way into Zabuza's body, targeting his injuries with precision.

As the chakra worked its magic, Naruto could see Zabuza's wounds gradually knitting themselves together, the torn flesh and broken bones mending under the influence of his healing technique.

Everyone who saw Naruto healing Zabuza were all wide-eyed, even Kakashi was surprised because of the precise control of Chakra that Naruto was displaying right now. Kakashi deduced that it was comparable to tsunade's control of Chakra.

As for Sakura and Sasuke they were shocked because of the totally different matter, they have heard about healing but they seen anyone perform so this was their first time seeing it. Sasuke was little by little getting jealous of Naruto after seeing his capabilities and comparing it to himself who considered himself an elite.

Naruto didn't there after healing Zabuza he went near the unconscious Haku and healed him too. Meanwhile Zabuza who thought that he wouldn't make it out alive was also surprised because of his newfound vitality.

Standing up Zabuza came near Naruto who was healing Haku. But everyone perceived his intentions and thought he wanted to attack naruto and put up their guard and took a fighting stance.

Seeing this reaction from everyone Zabuza just brought his both hands up in the air to signify that he doesn't mean any harm. Seeing everyone relaxed their guard but still vigilant for any mishaps.

Zabuza seeing that Haku was also regaining consciousness was delighted but didn't let it show on his face and said to naruto, "Thanks brat for healing bot of us". 

After fully healing Haku Naruto stood up and said "Don't mind it anyway I have a proposal for you". Hearing Naruto Zabuza said "Continue".

Seeing that Zabuza was all ears Naruto said "I have two options for you, one you could come to konoha with us or you could take retirement here in the land of waves and just relax, since I know you don't want to run around everywhere like a fugitive and if you do want to join Konoha its on yourself how you will convince the Hokage".

Hearing the options kakashi wanted to stop Naruto before he makes it worse but after hearing the latter part Kakashi also nodded because right now Naruto is his responsibility and if takes Naruto takes anyones responsibility then it fall directly fall on him.

Zabuza Discussed about the options given by Naruto with Haku and came to a conclusion, he turned towards and said "We will go with options and we can also train some little kids towards the ninja path to protect their homeland".

Hearing his answer Naruto wasn't disappointed since he assumed this much but he was a little surprised hearing Zabuza saying that he will teach the kids.

Zabuza again said "Thanks for sparing our lives br- no I won't call you that, thank you Naruto Uzumaki you are different from those little runts you're worthy of respect".

Naruto smiled hearing him, while all of this was happening a single shadow clone of Naruto materialised next to Naruto and handed him a storage scroll and with a puff of smoke disappeared.

The storage scroll contained all the money that was inside Gato's treasury, Naruto saw how much it was and just handed it over to Tazuna and Naruto said "Hey tazuna just give the money that was promised to Zabuza by Gato to Zabuza and also for our services to and rest of it you can decide".

In the scroll a total of 100 million ryo was present and it was enough for land of waves right now. While Naruto was also looking at his wristband with shining eyes, because in there 50 millions ryo was like a mountain. Even though Naruto can't see the suffering of the people but that doesn't mean he is a saint.

Everything settled Tazuna again started his but this time there were people to help him. In a week the bridge was finished and Team 7 was ready for there departure. Saying their goodbyes they started their journey towards Konoha. Meanwhile people in waves have named their bridge as the Great Naruto Bridge.

The journey towards Konoha was smooth and we returned in just 2 days. We were right now standing in front of the majestic gates of Konoha. We entered and started walking towards the Hokage tower.

While walking Naruto sensed Hinata's chakra approaching from the right direction. Seeing Naruto and his team Hinata came near them and greeted everyone with bow.

Hinata then looked towards Naruto she wasn't shying away when she greeted the others but when she looked at Naruto she had a small blush on her face. even though this Hinata is not shy like the Canon but that doesn't mean she isn't shy around Naruto.

Hinata and Naruto conversed a little and Between the conversation Naruto would flirt with Hinata. After conversing for sometime with everyone Hinata excused herself saying she had some stuff to do and ran away with a red face. 

Seeing this behaviour everyone gave a knowing look towards Naruto but he didn't refute or answered them he just accepted it silently like a trophy.

They again started walking towards the Hokage tower while walking Sakura asked Naruto "Hey Naruto, Do you like hinata? I mean you could've find anyone better than her. after all whenever I look into her eyes it gives me creeps".

Hearing Sakura's remarks Naruto abruptly stopped and focused all his killing intent towards Sakura, it was so much that Sakura could see her own death from naruto's hands. Kakashi had to intervene because of the amount of killing intent Naruto was releasing. Kakashi said "Naruto stop it right this instant".

Naruto didn't listen to kakashi's warning said to sakura "SAKURA HARUNO I DON'T FUCKING CARE WHAT YOU PEOPLE CALL ME, A MONSTER, DEMON FOX OR BLIND BASTARD, BUT KEEP THIS IN YOUR PUNY LITTLE MIND, I WON'T EVEN HESITATE FOR A SECOND TO KILL YOU IF YOU EVER BADMOUTH HINATA, EVER, AM I UNDERSTOOD?" 

Naruto was waiting for her answer but she wasn't replying so he again said but this time with more emphasis "AM. I. UNDERSTOOD.?". Kakashi replied instead of her "Yes she understands, now can you calm down".

Naruto retracted his killing intent from Sakura turned around and left saying "I don't have the mood to meet with the Hokage, If he wants to punish me for being absent then he can do it". Seeing Naruto's fading kakashi didn't say anything and as for Sakura she won't ever think of disrespecting Hinata ever.

Meanwhile Naruto who was pissed off was thinking, 'At first I saved Hinata because I was unknowingly following the canon and I just Wanted to have her but now it isn't about canon or it was predetermined, I can't have the thought of her getting harmed in anyway possible'.
