Chapter 22: The healer
The healer
"Gato ! How dare you scam those shinobi I have introduced to you ?
Do you have any idea who those people were !
You nearly put my life in danger !
Did you think they won't figure out that you sent them fake gold !" Takeshi roared. He was another wealthy merchant like Gato. Obviously exactly like Gato his business wasn't clean either.
Gato primarily engaged in the business of drugs and weapons trafficking behind his shipping business.
And Takeshi did sex trafficking behind his sake business.
Both of them were once business partners. But that changed when they separated there business.
Takeshi did most of his business in the main continent of elemental Lands, mostly in land of earth and it's nearby countries. That's why he knew very well how terrifying shinobi could be.
But Gato, was unaware of the true extent of the powers of shinobi. He had only rough ideas about how a shinobi is stronger than an average civilian.
That's why when he heard that Tazuna has gone to seek the protection of shinobi from one of the five great hidden villages, he instantly decided to hier his own shinobi.
But missions like assassination were not cheap. Especially when someone gives them to a hidden village. Hidden Mist is an exception. But he has earned quite a fortune during their civil war, scamming them multiple times. So now that the civil war is over he didn't want to test the temperature of the water.
That left him with only one option. To higher a rouge shinobi. But the shinobi must be strong to actually kill the bridge builder while he was being protected by the shinobi from the hidden leaf village.
But finding a rouge shinobi of that calibre was easier said then done.
But then he approached his old friend Takeshi, who often dealt with these kind of matters.
He had given him the contact method of an organisation of powerful shinobi.
But their pricing didn't suit Gato's taste. It was to expensive.
But at that time he didn't have much time. So he agreed to pay them 75% of their payment earlier. But he sent them fake gold coins. He had thought that by the time they figure it out, the mission would have been already over.
And because there base of operation was in land of rain there is a very little chance of them coming all the way to the land of waves to get their money.
But everything went to fireplace.
The shinobi were smarter than he thought.
"Why are you being so agitated ! It is not like they will cross the entire continent just to get there money !" Gato said dismissively
"No that's not the issue you fool !
Forget it !
It is not like they were coming here to complete your mission anyway !
But remember ! Do not try to do any short of business in the inlands. If you do then you will be responsible for your own life. There reach is greater than you think !
You are a smart man.
I came all the way here just to warn you. So you should understand the gravity of the situation."
...
"So, did you find out what they are mission is Itachi ?" Kisame asked Itachi.
"I am not a mind reader like a Yamanaka, kisame. I can guess but there is no guarantee that it is true.
Zabuza's mission is somehow connected to Gato.
If you confirmed her while, she is completing the mission, then you might get your chance to fight her." Itachi said to kisame.
They have caught, a few goons that the apprentice of Zabuza had interrogated.
From the information she collected from them, it was clear that, their mission is connected to Gato. And maybe the land of waves as well.
Gato and his goons were planning to attack the bridge the day after tomorrow.
For the moment, Itachi kept and eye on Zabuza from distance.
Obviously he didn't say anything about these matters to Kisame.
In two days, he will meet his foolish little brother.
...
2 days have passed since the team from the hidden leaf escorted Tazuna to the land of waves.
"I am not great with wind style jutsus, but I know a couple of C ranked wind style jutsus. So Naruto, I won't be able to help you much in that case. I will tell you about the hand signs and how to perform it. But you have to figure it out on your own." Kakashi said to Naruto.
Team seven was training in the woods. That day the workers has taken a leave. So Tazuna was staying at his home. Since there is nothing much to do, team 7 decided to train that day.
Naruto hearing Kakashi, nodded sadly.
So Kakashi cheered him up by saying that his chakra nature is very rare and has destructive potential.
Only two people in the entire hidden leaf village has the wind affinity.
After encouraging Naruto and checking on Sasuke Kakashi finally turned towards me.
"Sakura, Your affinity is earth. And it is my second best affinity. But before I teach you any jutsu, I have to ask you some questions."
Hearing his words I straightened up myself. I mentally prepared myself to face some unexpected questions.
I was very careful so far not to show my true chakra level.
Unlike byakugan, Sharingan cannot see Chakra inside the body. Unless Kakashi is Itachi, which he is not, there is no way he would directly figure out that I am supressing my chakra.
After I nodded, Kakashi finally asked his question.
"Are you supressing your chakra ?"
