29 Stealing a Mine, and an Uzumaki Vacation!

Kibo Walked over to the room where Zabuza was sitting on a large bed.

"How much longer, do you think it will take!?" Zabuza asked.

"Maybe an hour or so," Kibo replied, as he sat down in a chair. In his hand was Gato's glasses.

Kibo just got done filtering through all of the screwed up deeds that man was responsible for. He felt like he had watched 1,000 hours of the most disgusting horror films nonstop.

However, he got the information he was after. The Mine was located in a group of hillsides tunnels, only 80 miles from the village's location.

After drawing a detailed map, he wrote down all of Gato's crimes and where they could find evidence, as well as a list of highly political names that were connected to the crime syndicate.

Kakashi made sure to asked Kibo to add all the blackmail material Gato had on them to the list.

After this mission, they would give this dossier to the Hokage and it would be handed off to local authorities to deal with. Then, the Failed Shinobi and the Ninja criminals would put in the Bingo book to be hunted down at a later time.

Kibo then took off the glasses and crushed them.

"Disgusting!" Kibo said out loud. For once, he was glad the information left with the object instead of staying in his head.

"So this is it?" Zabuza said looking at the map.

"Yeah. Everything marked in red is within the deposit location. It shouldn't take long for us to reach there. We just have to clean up the garbage gathering outside," Kibo answered.

After the four stayed still for almost two hours, a pounding knock could be heard at the gated door.

Kibo put on the Gato disguise and the others made themselves look like some of the followers that they killed. As they walked out they saw at least 120 gathered before Kibo said, "Is this everyone!?"

"Yes sir! Other than the Miners who are hard at work, we made sure to gather everyone!" The thug said as he rubbed his hands together in a greedy manner.

Kibo smiled and spoke as he removed his transformation Jutsu at the same time. "Good, then you can all join your boss in hell!"

Before the thug could speak, Kibo's Katana passed through the top of his skull, revealing the paid mercenary's brain as his lifeless corpse fell to the ground.

The rest then began killing their targets with ease.

Kakashi used an Earth Jutsu to lock them in a walled-off 20-foot barrier, sealing the hired thugs' fates.

Kibo used his flicker to hop around, hacking through dozens of enemies without spilling a drop of blood on him.

Zabuza cut through multiple people at the same time with his executioner sword. Thanks to a high number of victims, the Kubikiribōchō had almost completely recovered by absorbing the iron from the blood of his foes.

Kibo noticed something strange, every time Zabuza cut down a foe; a dark type of Chakra entered his body and seemed to help him grow stronger.

It looked like he was absorbing the malice and hate of his victims at the moments of their deaths.

Kibo wondered if this was some kind of Kin-Jutsu that Zabuza practiced.

Haku had no problems taking out these weak enemies. His speed and bloodline ability kept him safe from any attacks as he jumped about in his ice mirrors throwing his Senbon Needles. Every time they hit it claimed a life.

Kakashi killing efficiency was no worse than Kibo's new Guardian Nin. He seemed to be enjoying Raijin's compatibility with his techniques quite a lot.

"Got to ask him, to make me one!" Kakashi thought as hed used a lightning blade that extended 7-feet beyond Raijin's range to slice through three people at the same time,

Kibo was like a blur amongst the combatants. Every few seconds, body parts and organs flew around him in a whirlwind of blood and gore.

After counting the survivors, Kibo noticed that although they've only been fighting only for a few minutes, the crowd already looked much smaller than before.

Kibo, wanting to finish quickly, used his Wind Lord's Step Jutsu to kick it up a notch. His body moved so fast it seemed to have disappeared and blended into the air.

The entire battlefield trembled as a shock wave of immense wind echoed out from his location. When Kibo reappeared, every bandit and thug froze, they stood still till the click of Kibo's Katana being sheathed signaled their deaths.

Suddenly, Gato's men all spewed blood from their necks before their heads rolled off their bodies and fell to the ground. Kibo then began gathering the bodies and stacking them on top of each other.

With a single Great Yang Fireball, he destroyed the entire pile of corpses into ashes along with Gato's entire compound.

With the job here done, Kibo sprouted his wings before saying, "Zabuza, Haku, accompany Kakashi back to the village. I'm going to collect everything in that mine."

The two new Guardian Nin bowed to Kibo as they said, "Yes, Master Kibo!"

Kakashi pulled out a couple of scrolls from his pouch before he asked, "Can you carry all of it? I have a few Space Sealing Scrolls if you need them!"

Kibo waved his Captain off before he laughed and said "I have my ways!"

With a quick flap of his wings, Kibo flew off in the direction of the mine.

It didn't take him long to find the location on the map. When he got there, Kibo noticed that there were signs of movement along the side of a hallowed out tunnel.

Kibo recognized them as more of Gato's men, without any hesitation, he killed them all in the same manner he used with Gato's hideout. Kibo killed and transformed into the Foreman before calling all the workers back.

With this, all of Gato's men had been removed from the face of the island.

Kibo ventured into the mine after burning the bodies and sending the ashes along their way.

Near the entry, Kibo already noticed a large stockpile of Chakra Ore sitting in full Mine Carts.

The metal ore had waves of Chakra emitting from them so powerful, one could see it rippling of its surface like a rising flame.

Collecting the hoard gathered before him, Kibo then smiled happily as he said, "Navi can you scan the whole mine."

"If the host sends a Chakra pulse into the Earth, then yes," Navi replied.

Kibo placed his hand on the ground and used his Earth Sage form before he sent out a strong pulse wave of his Chakra into the Earth.

After a minute had passed, Navi responded with good news, "There is...approximately 2,310 Cubic Meters of Chakra ore in this deposit. There are 4 different Chakra signatures coming from this mine."

Kibo was stoked, this meant that there were more metals that contained different unique abilities. For instance, the ore from Zabuza's sword had a regenerative ability attached to it, and the Mizukage's sword, Hiramekarei, was made with an ore that allows one to shape it with their Chakra.

Kibo then rubbed his hands together before he asked, "Can you pull it all into the inventory, without compromising the structure of the cave?"

"Yes, but it will take an hour to fill the emptied cavities with new dirt," Navi stated as Kibo's wait began.

During this entire time, Naruto and the rest of Team 7 had seen the poor condition of the village and felt obligated to help them.

At first, everyone paid little attention to him, but when 100 shadow clones began running around repairing the village while hunting for food, they started to join in.

The rest of Team 7 had started helping in the activities too, Sasuke went out to fish, Sakura helped make clothes and cooked, Karin took care of the sick and injured, while Hinata gathered fruits and herbs from the forest.

When Kakashi showed up, Zabuza stated that the village looked nothing like this before the 8 hours or so they had been gone.

It wasn't just the repairs but the atmosphere around the people.

After seeing Kakashi, Tazuna came over and explained, "It's that darn Naruto!"

"He got in an argument with my Grandkid and went off shouting that he'd show him how a real hero is supposed to act," Tazuna said with a tear in his eye.

After explaining their history with Gato's arrival, and the death of his son in law at his hands, Tazuna ended the explanation as he said, "When they got done shouting at each other Naruto left the house. But sometime later, a group of Gato's men dressed in mining gear tried to accost my daughter."

As it turns out, one of Naruto's clones was nearby. He spotted them attacking Inari's mother, kicked the crap out of them, and sent them running back to the mine. Shortly thereafter, the men that ran from Naruto were killed by Kibo.

Naruto's good deeds didn't stop there though. He started to help the villagers one by one, talked to them, and got to know them by name. He learned about the townsfolks' lives, about their hobbies, and occupations.

Afterward, he aided everyone in rebuilding their lives, and while he was helping them to improve their living condition, Naruto felt that he had realized what the true nature of his Nindo should be.

Naruto now knew what kind of Hokage he wanted to be. He didn't just want to help the people to live better lives, he wanted to heal their spirits and wounded hearts as well. To be a Hokage that brings his people up instead of keeping them in place or holding them back.

Kakashi showed a rare and serene smile as he thought, "Yondaime...if you could see your son now. I know you'd be proud."

Meanwhile, Kibo had just finished pulling up all the ore from the terrain. After dividing it all, he discovered the 4 Chakra properties of the ores he collected.

Around 70% of the Chakra ore was the most basic kind without any additional properties other than being perfectly tuned to handle Chakra. The remaining 30% was unique-type Chakra ores. The percentages were. . .

[7% Crimson Fire Chakra Ore(Rank S): Capable of forging wondrous treasures with fire affinities.]

[13% Regenerating Chakra Ore(Rank S): Capable of forging wondrous treasures with regeneration abilities.]

[10% Chakra Diamond Ore(Rank S): Capable of forging wondrous treasures with immaculate durability.]

Kibo smiled as he jumped for joy, right now he could be considered to be the wealthiest man on the planet.

If a single legendary sword could be sold to purchase an entire empire, then at the moment, Kibo had enough to buy the world.

"No wonder Gato was so obsessed with this land. Well, my gain now," Kibo thought as he opened his wings and flew towards the village.

When he got there, Kibo was surprised to see such a festive mood on the villager's faces.

"Nii Chan!" Kibo heard Naruto calling to him in the distance, he then flew over and dissipated his wings.

After landing, Naruto ran up to him to play a round of a hundred questions, "Did you really take out the whole gang with Kakashi Sensei? Are Zabuza and Haku coming home with us? Did you get some good stuff? Will you make me a weapon too?"

Kibo calmed Naruto down and told him "Yes; I got it done together with Kakashi, Zabuza, and Haku's help. Gato, and his entire organization, is done for. Yes, they will be coming home with us. They now act as Guardian Nin for our family. The matter concerning the deposit is S-class information, you don't have high enough clearance to know. And yes, I will make you something." Kibo answered in one breath.

Kibo took in a breath of air when before looked around and saw Naruto's clones. They were running about all over the harbor town, still hard at work.

Wanting to help his little brother out, Kibo summoned out fifty of his own clones and started assisting in various ways.

Kibo then walked over to Tazuna and asked "When will the bridge be done?"

Tazuna rubbed his chin before saying, "About a half a week. That is if you guys continue to provide the extra manual labor with that clone ability."

Kibo thanked Tazuna and headed inside his home, that the bridge maker so kindly let them stay in.

After stepping into the living room, Kibo saw Kakashi and Yamato sitting together with Zabuza and Haku.

The group was in the middle of eating while discussing what Zabuza and Haku's living arrangement would be like after they move to Konoha.

As they noticed Kibo walked in, Zabuza and Haku bowed to Kibo, showing nothing but respect,

Which in turn, made Yamato very surprised.

"Glad that you made it here safely Yamato Sensei," Kibo said with a warm smile,

"You took care of the issue?" Kakashi questioned.

Kibo threw his hand up and made an O.K sign with his finger and thumb.

Zabuza and Haku showed happy expressions. They were glad he managed to clear out the entire mine without letting them know how much. It seemed they really had found someone worth serving.

"So did you bring what I asked?" Kibo held out his hand to Yamato.

After pulling out a scroll he laid it across the table, revealing an old Land of the Waves map. The scroll had markers on it, showing where several villages and islands are and used to be.

A single spot on the map was circled and had the symbol of the Uzumaki clan on it.

The destination was about a day's ride by gondola from here, and since the Land of Whirlpools was so close to the Land of Waves, Kibo thought, If I take them by flying, as long as nothing unexpected happens, we should be able to head there and back in less than a day."

Kibo then rolled the document up and placed it in his inventory.

"I'm curious as to why you're headed there. Mind informing me?" Kakashi asked,

Kibo smiled before replied, "I want to take Karin and Naruto there while our clones act as replacement guards. After all, they are the only known surviving members of their clan. There might be something left for them there as an inheritance. Also, it couldn't hurt for them to learn of their ancestors."

"Those two are Uzumaki!?" Zabuza said in surprise.

Haku, curious about Zabuza's reaction, couldn't help but ask, "What's so special, about the Uzumaki Clan?"

"The Uzumaki are distantly related to the Senju. The Senju were rumored to be direct descendants of the mythical, Asura Ōtsutsuki."

"Like the son of Hagoromo, the man who created Nin-Jutsu? That, Asura Otsutsuki? Isn't that a fairy tale?" Haku questioned.

"Some Ninja believe they are no fairy tale. Uzumaki Clansmen are born possessing incredibly strong life-force. Because of this, they are born with massive stores of Chakra, age slower than most people, and are rumored to be longlived. Mito Uzumaki was born before the founding of Konoha yet lived well into the reign of the Third Hokage while still retaining her youthful looks. Some members are also born with a unique ability. The ability allows them to materialize Adamantine Chains made from their own immense Chakra."

Kibo laughed at that last part, the reason they didn't call the Uzumaki bloodline ability a Kekkei Genkai, was because they didn't know what element it belonged to.

They failed to understand that it was a Metal Element Kekkei Genkai derived from the constant re-emergence of the Truth-Seeking Orb.

The Uzumaki Clan were indeed Asura's decedents. Throughout many of his reincarnations, Asura always managed to manifest the Truth-Seeking Orb against his brother's reincarnation. The Uzumaki Bloodline adapted to the metal-element spheres so well, that they became the Adamantine Chains Kekkei Genkai that we all know of today.

Kakashi raised a brow before commenting, "You know an awful lot about the Uzumaki Clan."

In response, Zabuza grinned and said, "As one of the new 7 Swordsmen, the information I had access to wasn't small."

"Let me rephrase. Why does Kirigakure have so much information on the Uzumaki Clan?" Kakashi questioned.

"Isn't that obvious? Kirigakure played a part in their destruction," Zabuza declared, shocking everyone in the room.
