22 [Team 7!]

'Damn that is one massive Jutsu...'

I was on the way back towards everyone and I felt a large water Jutsu sweep past the area in front of me.

'...'

'...better get back fast.'

I arrive back at the clearing to find Zabuza lying on the ground and the whole clearing looks like it was done in by a huge water jutsu…

'Yikes! What the hell happened here...'

I push a steady stream of chakra to the soles of my feet and run on the water to arrive quickly and stand before everyone…

"Kakashi-san you might want to cover your eye, I don't think you can handle the strain for even another minute...your chakra levels are drained..."

As Kakashi-san closed his left eye and proceed to pull his forehead protector I put down Haku beside everyone and survey the damage done to Zabuza's body…

'Multiple fractured ribs...crack in the skull...broked bones in his right hand...at least that head injury needs treatment if he wants to survive...'

I then look around at everyone else, Naruto seemed to be looking between the wounds on Haku's body and the sword on my back. Sasuke looked like he would challenge me then and there. Hinata and Sakura seemed to be displaying the same attitude in one regard, they both were sneaking glances at Naruto and Sasuke while trying to look focused on everyone else...

"Tobi, are you injured?" Kurenai sensei was the first to break the silence…

"No, I'm fine Kurenai-Sensei… I already treated myself and Mr.Rogue here, and put him in a false-death state..."

"Can you do that for Zabuza too..." Kakashi-san quipped in between and my attention shifted towards both the Jounin.

'Hmmm… everything seems fine, some light bruises and besides the dangerously low chakra levels….no immediate danger. Kurenai-sensei seems like she just supported from the sidelines as her reserves just took a little hit and every inch of her dress is still as peachy as ever...hmmm she looks hot with that concerned expression...right I forgot to answer.'

"Yeah I could but he has a slightly fractured skull and if you want to capture it, I need some space to heal him..."

Kakashi-san and Kurenai-sensei just backed up a bit and I raised an eyebrow as I looked at everyone else who were still processing the conversation… As Shino backed off to provide some space, everyone followed and I knelt beside the head of Zabuza…

'Mystical Palm Jutsu'

I direct the healing chakra to mend the gap between the broken bones and closed my eyes to concentrate on the flow of chakra…

'Hmm… why is Sasuke glaring at me...I'll kick your butt moron I'm not afraid of you...you don't have a clan to back yourself so stay within your limits...'

I let the jutsu fade away from my left hand and walk towards Kakashi-san, I place my right hand on his eye and heal the slight nerve damage caused by probably overusing a doujutsu that does not belong to his body…

"..." Kakashi-san seemed surprised at the gesture initially and the slight hesitation and fluctuation in his chakra was the only indication of emotions that I got from him…

"You might want to get a healer to heal your eyes every time you overuse your Sharingan Kakashi-san, I can feel the chakra in the eye and your chakra don't mashup well and it leads to some tissue damage whenever you use it for a long duration..."

He seemed to assess me before his eye curved into a smile…

'His eye curved into a smile...wtf?'

*sigh*

Felling my adrenaline coming down I take a deep breath and notice the strange atmosphere present between team 7 and team 8. 'I like this team better, it's like I could read their thoughts written on their faces...wait *vomits* I take it back I don't like the idiot, the moron and the fan-girl over there...but they seem pretty easy to read than Shino and Hinata...okay Shino.'

'Sasuke has the same look in his eyes that he had when I first beat him to the no1 rank on year one...Naruto seemed to be still trying to figure out what that green light was...and Sakura...yeah let's ignore that waste of space for the moment...'

"Yo! It's been a while..." I did a 2 finger salute to greet team 7…

"Hey! Tobi-kun, what was that green jutsu you used on the sword guy and Kakashi-sensei..."

Sakura seemed to perk up at that and come out of her dreams to smash her fist on top of Naruto's head as his excited expression crumpled...

'Ouch'

"Baka! That was Iryo-Ninjutsu...It's a healing jutsu that can be used by combat medics to heal themselves during combat...did you ever pay attention...."

'And she will probably go on and on about that...speaking of sword guy...'

I take out 2 senbons and puncture the acupuncture points on his neck, after that, I nodded to Kakashi-san to tell him that everything else will be fine…

As I was surveying our surroundings one final time before relaxing my guard a sword lying forgotten on the floor a few meters away came to my attention… I walked up to the sword and used Inspect…

[S-rank: Kubikiribōchō]

[Description: One of the 7 legendary swords of the Village Hidden in the Mist. It posses the power to repair itself when covered with blood and all attack damage done by the sword is true damage.]

[Damage: 1000*deepness of cut]

The sword was the size of a full-grown man and was shaped like a butchers knife, I picked up the sword by channeling chakra to my arms and did a few practice slashes…

'Damn It's heavy...and wtf is true damage Zoey'

[Every attack that your jutsu's and other attacks do is not true damage. The total damage is calculated after the defense of the targeted area, whether it was blocked or not, the target's resistance to your jutsu or weapon. After all that your damage is reduced by a lot. For example in your against Haku, you used the Dragon Fire Jutsu and it has a minimum damage of 1000 but because of Haku's ice shield and blocking of the attack with Ice chakra, the actual damage was around 300. But in case of true damage attack every resistance is ignored.]

I look adoringly at the sword before I had to stop channeling chakra to my arm so as to not burn the muscles and the sword became too heavy for me to handle, so I let it go and it sunk into the ground…

'Damn that Zabuza was a monster...'

I took out a scroll and seal the sword before throwing the scroll to Kakashi-san. He caught the scroll with a surprised eyebrow as I walked back towards the group…

Sakura was still scolding Naruto over his lack of knowledge and common sense while Sasuke was in emo mode looking sideways away from the group. Hinata was quiet and looked a shade too red to be actually possible and Shino just stood aside and seemed to be communicating with a beetle on his hand…

'...yeah I need a break and some interaction with normal teens...'
