Konoha: I, Naruto, will eat the Forest-Forest Fruit!

Chapter 43: Subduing Zabuza and Haku, with a plan to seize Gato's assets!

"I've already said it, we ninjas are nothing more than tools!"

"All I want is his ability."

"He's not one of his people!"

"I...have no regrets at all..."

puff-

Kakashi's Chidori pierced Haku's heart.

Zabuza stood there, stunned.

The Thousand Birds that were meant to pierce his heart were blocked by Shiro.

"I'm sorry... Zabuza-san... I'm so useless..."

"It's okay, you did a great job."

Zabuza's voice trembled slightly, but his expression remained very calm.

At that moment, he clearly had countless opportunities to attack Kakashi.

But he waited until Haku was completely dead before he could no longer suppress his anger and slashed at Kakashi.

......

"At least... in the very last moment, I want to be by your side..."

"If possible... I'd like to... go to the same... place as you..."

......

The Tsukuyomi world has ended.

Zabuza suddenly opened his eyes.

Then he saw Bai, who had taken off his mask, looking at him with a smile.

That satisfied look on his face made Zabuza give a wry smile.

"I never imagined we'd end up in the same world as you."

"white."

"No, Mr. Zabuza, look."

Bai gently shook her head and then stepped aside.

Zabuza, lying on the ground, glanced behind Shiro and saw Naruto with an ambiguous expression.

He paused, then sneered:

"Kid, I didn't expect you to come to this world too. How interesting."

"How are you doing in my Tsukuyomi world?"

"If I don't provoke you, you'll never open up about what's on your mind."

Zabuza immediately shut his mouth.

I looked at the smiling white, then at the blinding sunlight.

He was silent.

Finally, he turned his head away.

"Hmph, so you Konoha ninjas living in peace are just naive."

"Why not kill the enemy immediately?"

After saying that, Zabuza suddenly leaped up, pulled out a kunai, and attacked Naruto.

However, the next moment, Zabuza found himself unable to move his entire body.

"Illusion? When?!"

He was once again imprisoned by countless vines.

"Zabuza-san, this isn't an illusion... it's... the legendary Wood Release, isn't it?"

Bai's eyes widened as well.

I never expected to see the legendary Wood Release technique here.

"In the Tsukuyomi world, killing you would be as easy as turning my hand. Why would I need to go through all that trouble to cast another genjutsu?"

Naruto rolled his eyes and waved his hand, causing the countless vines to disappear.

"Take it, this executioner's blade is no good."

Naruto casually tossed the broken Executioner's Blade to Zabuza.

"Hmph, if you're going to kill me, then kill me. Stop playing these pointless tricks."

That's what he said, but Zabuza didn't dare to look at Haku again.

"You've failed your whole life."

"The resistance against Kirigakure has failed."

Zabuza did not deny it, but simply sat on the ground and said he would do as he pleased.

"Attempt to revive the Hidden Mist Village has failed."

"Even knowing they were Konoha ninjas, and that the clone ninja Kakashi Hatake was there, they still chose to attack, but still failed."

"When it comes to relationships, the only option that could lead to success is failure because you are afraid of the strange looks from the world and dare not face your own heart."

"Nonsense!"

When it comes to feelings, Zabuza can't sit still.

"Well, don't be so nervous. I won't kill you, but your lives are mine. You want your freedom?"

"You want to rebel against Kirigakure?"

"Want to succeed?"

"I can give you all of these."

Zabuza frowned. "What exactly do you want?"

Suddenly, he let out a cold laugh.

"So that's it. The beard on your face... Twelve years ago, Konoha suffered the Nine-Tails' attack... So it was you, the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki."

"You're barely able to protect yourself, otherwise you wouldn't have kept hiding your abilities. Who gave you the courage to say those things?"

Naruto knew he would say that, and with a wave of his hand, countless vines appeared on the ground.

The vines quickly wrapped around his back and formed a chair.

Naruto sat down, and with another wave of his hand, a fruit brimming with nutrients appeared.

He casually tossed it to Bai.

"Your bloodline limit was unlocked too early, your body is in a state of depletion, and you have many hidden ailments. Take this."

"don't want!"

Zabuza tried to stop him, but Haku ate it without hesitation and even gave Zabuza a pure smile at the end.

"Zabuza-san, I believe in him, and we have no other choice."

Bai's words hit the nail on the head.

Zabuza fell silent.

"Heh... Wood Release... I didn't expect it to be true."

"As expected, you ninjas who grew up in peaceful places are always so annoying."

"Tell me, what do we need to do to buy our lives?"

Seeing that he had resigned himself to his fate, Naruto smiled and raised his hand to make a rattan chair for them as well.

"Don't worry, someone will come to pick you up soon."

"Come on, feel the power, bump fists with me."

Naruto's words were like a devil's whisper, and a glimmer of hope ignited in Zabuza's eyes.

As Naruto said, his life was a failure.

Now that someone has given him a glimmer of hope, even if it's fake, he's willing to take the gamble.

"We'll talk about Kirigakure later. Your Fourth Hokage has been controlled by someone, and it's about time."

"Actually, in the end, we won't need you anymore, because the Fifth Mizukage has already been chosen, and the Village of Blood Mist will become a thing of the past."

Zabuza and Haku took turns bumping into Naruto's fists.

A large amount of chakra suddenly surged from his body.

The sheer number of them left Zabuza speechless.

Bai Ping's expression also turned to utter astonishment.

The seed of the Nine-Tails' chakra has been planted.

Their lives now hang in the balance between Naruto and Kurama.

Unfortunately, neither the two who received the Nine-Tails' chakra, nor even those frustrated genin and chunin of Konoha, could sense it.

"What's your name?"

"My lord, please inform us."

In comparison, Bai saw it much more clearly.

Although the chakra Naruto gave them was malicious, it did not harm them.

As Zabuza gained power, another thought arose in his mind.

Kakashi Hatake, a mere copycat ninja, if I could do it again, I could overwhelm him with ninjutsu!

Bai, however, thought about it more deeply.

If this person could grant other ninjas such chakra without limit.

Then...the future looks bright!

I and Zabuza have always been like rats in the street.

As long as we steadfastly follow this lord, we will surely see the light of day again!

He knew that the boy in front of him must have his own plan.

After the plan is implemented, the ninja world will undergo earth-shattering changes.

"Naruto Uzumaki"

"Remember this, from now on, both of your lives belong to me. Don't even think about having any other thoughts."

"Yes, Lord Naruto!"

Bai respectfully knelt on one knee.

Zabuza asked in a deep voice, "You're saying that the Village of the Bloody Mist in Kirigakure will soon become a thing of the past?"

He was naturally aware that something was wrong with the Fourth Mizukage; that assassination attempt had allowed him to glimpse many secrets.

"Of course, the Fifth Mizukage has already been chosen."

"That's good...you don't need me anymore."

Zabuza looked up at the clear sky.

He then slowly bent down and knelt on one knee.

"What do you need me to do?"

Naruto turned his head away, looked into the distance, and said with a faint smile:

"My people will arrive in about ten minutes. It's inconvenient for it to take action, but its will is my will, so just obey."

"Also, you should be prepared that my target in the Land of Waves this time is your backer."

"Kado?!"

Haku and Zabuza were both shocked.

Targeting the big spender?

Even if in the original story Ricardo was ruthless and planning to take advantage of them for free.

They had no intention of taking action.

If they were to make a move, they would not only be hunted down by Kirigakure.

I'm afraid we'll soon face a joint attack from the five great ninja villages!

"Don't worry, just make sure it's clean."

Haku frowned, while Zabuza shook his head and said, "No, it's impossible to completely erase all the evidence."

Suddenly, Haku stopped Zabuza.

"Naruto-sama, does the Hokage of Konoha know about this mission?"

Naruto smiled and praised him generously:

"clever!"

"You've probably guessed who I am... This is my first mission outside the village, and it's also the first time I've taken on a C-rank mission."

Haku instantly understood, and Zabuza frowned and thought for a while before also realizing it.

He gave a bitter smile.

"So that's how it is... It was all destined."

"I thought I was wrong."

In the illusionary world, Zabuza killed Gato once.

At that time, he didn't think that much about it.

Actually, it's because Naruto didn't show him all the details from the original work.

Otherwise, Zabuza would definitely have thought of it.

By killing Gato, Kakashi indirectly helped Kakashi complete his mission of intervening in the internal affairs of another country and dealing with criminal gangs.

Even after Zabuza killed Gato, he himself died.

He was a rogue ninja with no ties to him.

Even if this matter is brought to the forefront, it is impossible to investigate it.

"Lord Naruto, are you planning to swallow all of Gato's wealth?"

"That's right, so you are the most suitable candidates for this mission."

"I know that Zabuza and I will go back and say that the mission failed and that I need to heal for a while."

"While keeping Cardo on his guard, secretly investigate the distribution of his assets."

"After confirming that everything is correct, Zabuza and I will take action ourselves, and we will absolutely not involve Lord Naruto."

Zabuza looked at Haku with a hint of reluctance in his eyes.

"Zabuza-san, let me do this."

"No!"

"My current bounty is not good enough for you."

Zabuza was filled with rage.

Naruto rolled his eyes.

"Stop, stop, stop. Let's get down to business. Stop with all this. You can talk about this later tonight."

"Nine-Ra, come out now if you've seen enough."

"Hmph, I'm just tired and want to rest."

Then, Naruto trapped inside.

"No, Kurama!"

"You have a male voice, is it really necessary to use this image?"

"Or is it because the first two Jinchūriki were women that your thinking has become distorted?"

"Don't forget, wasn't the Two-Tails tricked by Shukaku into creating a female persona for itself..."

Before Naruto could finish speaking, Kurama interrupted him, clearly annoyed.

"It's none of your business!"

"Alright, alright, they're yours to handle. Take what you can get, don't leave them anything behind."

"Hmph, I know, I know, you're so long-winded."

"I'll be going now, it'll be a while since I left."

"Then, I'll leave Kado in your care."

Naruto reached out his hand, intending to shake hands with Zabuza and Haku.

However, Bai was the first to kneel on one knee, saying, "Respectfully seeing you off, sir!"

He shook his head, said nothing more, and left using his mayfly technique.

"Sir, who are you?"

"Nine-tailed Fox".

"I'm sorry, sir, I..."

"Hmph, the chakra that kid gave you is mine."

"Nine-Tails, a tailed beast, do I need to say it again?"

Zabuza: "???"

white:"???"

......

"Hey Naruto, did you take care of those two ninjas who were getting in the way of our mission?"

Kakashi greeted him with a smile.

However, the person lay motionless on the ground.

Clearly, the Sharingan has taken a huge toll.

Early in the morning, because of the big battle, there were quite a few fish on the shore.

Pick them up, wash them clean, and you can stew them in one pot.

Sakura scooped up a bowl of delicious fish soup.

"Naruto-kun, warm yourself up first."

Erzhuzi held the fish soup in both hands, took a sip, and then turned around to give Naruto a smug smile.

"I won!"

As expected of you, Erzhuzi.

"Kakashi, where did your Sharingan come from?"

Upon seeing Naruto return, Sasuke couldn't bear it any longer and immediately asked.

Kakashi's deadpan expression returned. "Well, I thought you'd ask directly, but I didn't expect you to wait for Naruto to come back before asking."

"This eye was given to me by a deceased friend before he sacrificed his life."

"It was a gift I received when I became a Jonin at the age of twelve."

Erzhuzi was dumbfounded. "A twelve-year-old Jonin?"

But his focus was clearly wrong.

Sakura: I suspect Kakashi-sensei is faking it!
