CHAPTER 15: Am I Weak?

Nenma walked down the hall, past the two corpses. Kiyomi followed, looking at the dead bodies. "Nenma…" Kiyomi said. Nenma looked back at her, slightly confused. "What..?" Nenma asked. Kiyomi shook her head, smiling. "N-Nothing…" She said. Nenma looked confused, shrugging it off. He walked out of the building seeing a ton of Amegakure shinobi. A brown haired woman walked out from the crowd looking at Nenma. She wore a black suit and cloak. "You're Nenma Uzumaki..?" The woman asked. Nenma nodded, grabbing Yukina's sword from behind his back. "Yeah? What do you care about it..?" Nenma asked. The woman glared at him, "… Ah hell, I'd probably kill you if we fought…" The woman said. Nenma looked slightly irritated hearing this. "Who are you!?" Nenma shouted. The woman looked back, "I'm the 1st Amekage… Kurinen Motosaki…" Ms. Motosaki said. Nenma looksd slightly angry, "I wonder if you can win against all these soldiers… If you're capable…" Kurinen said. Nenma grinded his teeth, "Come at me…" Nenma growled. The Shinobi and their chakra blades ran toward Nenma. Nenma ran toward the shinobi entering into combat. Nenma cut down multiple shinobi in cold blood. After an hour, Nenma stood on a pile of corpses. Kiyomi stood off to the side smoking a cigarette. Kurinen walked over to the hill of corpses, looking up at Nenma. She took off her cloak, handing it to her assistant. Kiyomi looked at Nenma, who was covered in blood. She had a smirk on her face, in anticipation. Kurinen stretched her arms, "Once again, it's time to teach an over confident brat some manners…" She said, cracking her knuckles. Nenma switched to his mangekyou sharingan. Kurinen chuckled, "Oh my… So scared…" She mocked him. Nenma grinded his teeth. His sword was then covered in red lightning. Nenma ran toward Kurinen with his sword when suddenly, she appeared next to him. Nenma slowly looked over at Kurinen as she grabbed his face. "She's quick..!!" Nenma She then slammed him into the ground. Nenma sat up as Kurinen walked over to him. "You're strong… But you aren't strong enough…" She said, Suddenly, Yukina's blade appeared in Kurinen's hand. She put the tip of the blade on Nenma's neck, tickling his throat. She dropped the blade next to Nenma. "You still don't stand up to a Kage." Kurinen said. Kurinen walked toward her assistant, putting her blazer and cloak back on. Nenma tore off his ripped jacket. His teeth were grinding and his eyes full of hate. "Am I still that weak..?" Nenma reflected. Nenma stood up, "I'll become stronger than you!!" Nenma shouted. Nenma clenched his fists, "And then… I'll kill you!!" Nenma shouted. Kurinen chuckled, "Even if you become stronger… You won't kill me!" Kurinen said. Nenma looked even more angry, "How so!!" Nenma shouted. Kurinen shrugged, "We'll see…" Kurinen said. Kiyomi walked over to Nenma, "Lets go back, mother is probably worried. Nenma glared at Kiyomi. "Worried? My ass…" Nenma said. Kiyomi rolled her eyes, "Come on…" Kiyomi said. Nenma followed her, as the two walked out of the village. Kurinen would be walking in a hallway, "Ms. Motosaki, why did you let that boy live, knowing the bounty on his head..?" Her assistant asked. Kurinen sighed, "He's an old classmate of my daughter… She was… Quite fond of him…" Kurinen said. Her assistant nodded, "I see…" Kurinen's assistant said. Meanwhile, Nenma and Kiyomi appeared in Uzura's throne room. The room was empty, and quiet. Nenma looked around puzzled, "Welcome back." Uzura said. Nenma turned seeing Uzura. Nenma kneeled, lowering his head. "Boy…" Uzura said. Nenma looked up at Uzura, noticing her skin was lighter than usual. "Where have you two been..?" Uzura asked. Nenma looked up, "Our mission… It was delayed longer than usual…" Nenma said. Uzura stood up, as an ash rod appeared in her right hand. She walked over to Nenma, putting it under his chin. "Stand… Boy…" Uzura said. Nenma stood, looking at the ground. "Nenma Uzumaki… Does that name sound familiar to you..?" Uzura asked. Nenma looked at Uzura. "N-No… It doesn't…" Nenma said. Uzura chuckled, turning to Kiyomi. "Kiyomi…" Uzura said. Kiyomi stood, "Yes, Lady Uzura..?" Kiyomi asked. Nenma looked at Kiyomi, "Teach this boy…" Uzura said. Kiyomi nodded, "… To suffer…" Uzura said, slashing Kiyomi's torso. Nenma looked shock as Shouto and Sazuma ran into the room, holding black receiver rods. Nenma grabbed his sword, putting it in his mouth. He grabbed a paper bomb, throwing it at the ceiling. Shouto tossed a receiver at Nenma's abdomen. As the ceiling crumbled, the receiver stabbed through Nenma's left abdomen. "Gah!!" Nenma shouted. When on the surface, Nenma jumped onto the tree's. He began jumping through trees until he approached the hidden rain village. At the bridge, a teenage girl with brown hair would be standing there. "Stand still!" The woman shouted. The woman squinted her eyes, looking at Nenma.
