Chapter 23 - Delinquent Gang B

Everyone was surprised when they heard the heartbreaking scream of poor Inuzuka. They didn't know what exactly had happened and because of the pain, they heard they didn't want to know.

Kurama only shook his head while a certain image appeared in his mind. He could only pray for the boy to recover, although it was obvious that he would not do so soon.

A few hours passed before Kiba returned to Tazuna's house. He had an expression of having returned from his first massacre.

Kurama came down from the tree when he felt his presence and put his hand on the poor boy's shoulder - "There are times when Ignorance is a blessing"

"You don't know how true that is ..." - Kiba muttered as he entered Tazuna's house with his head down.

"Better not ask" - said the redhead seriously - "There are things that are better not to remember and sink them deep inside your mind ..."

"I don't know what will have happened but I agree with the Dobe" - Sasuke added - "Normally I would try to annoy Kiba a little more but just by looking at his expression you can see that something very traumatic happened to him ..."

"I guess I'll give Kiba the day off" - sighed the red-eyed kunoichi - "The others follow me"

"Sensei, I want to ask permission to train my Mokuton" - Kurama said seriously.

Kurenai thought about it for a few seconds and nodded at his request to the girls' annoyance - "Just don't destroy Nami no Kuni's ecosystem ..."

She knew very well how destructive the Mokuton Element was, so at least she had to ask him the 'favor' of not wreaking havoc in the area.

Kurama nodded without thinking twice and withdrew. After 30 minutes explosions could be heard in the distance and Kurenai could only take the bridge of her nose while letting out a sigh, the good side is that the redhead grew more trees after leaving the devastated area, so there was not much problem.

* * * * *

Thus the days passed for the group. Kiba had recovered but they could still hear how he murmured 'She is he' in his dreams.

Kakashi woke up two days after the incident with Haku. He was still exhausted but decided to get up to exercise his muscles, after all, he had already been informed that Zabuza was still alive.

These days, the two teams took turns protecting Tazuna. One day the team 7 trained while team 8 took care of Tazuna in the construction zone of the bridge and the next day they inverted their tasks.

The construction went from wind to stern and thanks to the clones of Kurama, Tazuna's work was much easier, but everything changed when the stipulated time had arrived. After a week since the first fight with Zabuza, a lot of fog was flooding around the bridge.

Team 7 and 8 were already ready for battle, so they didn't take long to get defensive.

"I guess not only will I have to take care of Sharingan no Kakashi, but also Akai Sakushi (Red Illusion)" - Zabuza said as he appeared from the fog - "Not counting the brats ... thankfully I didn't come alone"

"Zabuza ... I see that that bastard of Gatou does not have much confidence in you, although seeing that there is two Konoha elite ... I would not have it either" - said a second voice from the fog.

"Hey, Yuto! You take care of the kunoichi! I'll take care of the cyclops bastard!" - Zabuza said as he looked in a foggy direction - "We have an unfinished fight and I don't want you to get in the way!"

"I don't see the problem ..." - Yuto said as he showed himself - "I'd rather hear the screams of agony of women ... I find it much more exciting ..."

"You're still the same crazy as ever ..." - Zabuza said with disdain.

"Yuto Akagame, Nukenin rank A of Kiri Bingo book, a specialist in Kenjutsu ..." - said Kurenai while giving the information to the Genin - "More than 500 Innocents killed, responsible for more than 50 r.a.p.es ... immediate execution if it is sighted ... "

"With that, there is no need to introduce myself" - Yuto said while asking Zabuza - "Let's start?"

"One more person is still missing ..." - Zabuza said as he watched as Kiri's Anbu arrived - "We're all there ... Why don't you introduce yourself Haku?"

Haku took off his mask, showing his beautiful features, a shame that She is a He - "See you again... Kiba-kun ..."

Kiba, seeing Haku's face, began to tremble as the Konoha shinobis joined the tracks.

After a while, everyone looked at the Inuzuka with understanding - "Don't worry Kiba! Someday you will find the right one ..."

Kiba upon hearing his companions went into depression. The battle had not begun and he was already out of combat.

Zabuza looked at them with sweat on his forehead - "I think we should start ..."

Kakashi looked at his Genin and nodded - "Kurenai and I will face Zabuza and Yuto, you take care of Haku ..."

"Hai, Kakashi-Sensei!" - Team members 7 and 8 said.

* * * [Meanwhile in Tazuna's house] * * *

A group of 20 criminals approached the Residence of the bridge builder and there was no need to be a genius to know what kind of intentions they had.

"Remember, we want at least one alive" - said the leader of the group.

"Boss! For the information we managed to gather, there are only two people inside" - commented one of the criminals - "An 8-year-old boy and his mother, which they say is beautiful ..."

"Beautiful you say?" - said the leader with a perverted smile.

"Hai!" - said the criminal - "How about we take both of them and then have fun with the mother in front of the child?"

"It's not a bad idea" - the leader murmured while rubbing his chin - "After finishing it, we gave it to Gatou-sama to use it as a 'gift' for our VIP customers"

"As expected from the boss!" - said another of the criminals while praising his leader - "That's why you are the one in charge of the mission!"

"Let's finish this fast" - the leader smiled - "The less time we use in the errands of Gatou-sama, the more time we will have to enjoy that beauty"

"I don't think they can do it ..." - said a voice that interrupted their movements - "Because you won't live more than 5 minutes ..."

"!" - The group began to sweat when they heard that voice that seemed to come from hell itself.

"Who would say I would find some small mice trying to steal some cheese?" - Kurama said while looking at the group as if they were garbage - "At times like that, I would like Matatabi to be here to take care of you ..."

The criminals turned to see the origin of the voice and let out a sigh of relief when they saw that it was only a 'child'. They quickly began to shout threats as they drew their knives and swords.

"I guess you and your tiny brains don't understand the situation you are in ..." - Kurama said coldly - "I hadn't said anything because I was hoping that at least one of you had enough intelligence to understand that your deaths would be a very slow and painful one ... one that would be better to practice suicide so as not to go through that suffering ... but I guess I expected too much from a group of Neandertals"

The criminals began to tremble with fear as their weapons fell to the floor. The dark aura that radiated the redhead was causing them to barely breathe.

"Garbage of humanity, parasites that stick to the people who strive ... you all disgust me ..." - continued the boy coldly while giving them a cold smile - "I will enjoy hearing your cries of pain ... maybe so all those people that you damaged, can have the justice they deserve ... Moku Bunshin no Jutsu "

* Poof * Behind Kurama began to appear wooden clones, making criminals feel a much greater fear - "Now ... Mokuton: Mokusatsu Shibari no Jutsu"

Vines began to sprout from the arms of the clones and began to surround the bodies of the criminals. Tsunami and Inari heard a noise outside the house, so they went out to see what was happening and could not say they were not surprised when they saw how everything was going on.

"Kurama-kun ..." - said the brunette the situation - "What is happening? Why is it that there are so many people trapped in vines?"

Kurama gave the woman a look, then the child, and then shook his head.

"..." - Tsunami looked at the men and quickly recognized them, so after thinking for a few seconds she understood what was happening. She gave him a grateful look as he took his son and put him inside the house.

Seeing that his spectators had left, Kurama again looked at the criminals with a malevolent smile - "Congratulations guys, you will be the participants of a small experiment I had thought with Anko-chan"

The thugs did not know who 'Anko-chan' was but from the boy's expression, it was obvious that she was not kind, at least not with people like them.

"But since Anko-chan has been busy, I have not been able to ask her to provide me with some ... guinea pigs ..." - the redhead smiled a little more normally, although this smile for criminals was much darker.

"P-Please at least give us a quick death ..." - the leader felt that his bladder was about to give in because of the fear that could not be contained.

"Nope ~ I gave you that opportunity and you didn't take it" - Kurama said with an innocent smile - "Now I control what happens ~ If I want you to live, you will live ... if I want you to die, you will die ..."

The redhead calmly ordered his clones to move criminals to the depths of the forest to start their ... experiment. Just so that after a few minutes, screams will resonate in the place.

The children of Nami no Kuni were now terrified because their mothers had told them that if they did not behave well, they would be taken deep into the forest and punished by the spirit of the place.

"I guess I ended up here ..." - The redhead said while wiping the blood from his hands in a nearby river - "I have to admit that the influence of KURAMA is affecting me more than I thought ..."

With each passing month, Kurama had less mercy on his enemies and there were times when he seemed to enjoy seeing the expressions of pain and suffering while fighting. It was strange but he felt that it was part of him.

He quickly created a last Moku Bunshin and sent him to protect Tazuna's family as he headed towards the bridge at full speed.

* * * * *

Back to the bridge, the battle was at its peak.

The 4 Jonin were engaged in a great battle while the Genin side was completely different. They were being blocked by Haku Kekkei Genkai, the Hyoton.

"I'm sorry to have to do this but I have to finish fast" - Haku said as he planned how to defeat his opponents quickly - "I can't make Zabuza-sama wait any longer"

"He wants to finish this fast, so he will show more openings that we can take advantage of" - Sasuke had a serious look while looking at his teammates - "At that moment we will make a quick attack and defeat him"

"Hai!" - The others responded to follow the Uchiha. This caused a smile in Haku who began making seals with one hand.

"Back off! He's up to something!" - roared the raven.

"Too late! Hijutsu: Sensatsu Suisho!" - Haku said while around the Genin, the water in the area began to take the form of an infinity of fine needles.

"Quick! Use Kawarimi!" - Sakura shouted as the others followed her instructions.

Sasuke, seeing that the attack was heading towards Tazuna, used Kawarimi to get to the side of the old bridge builder as soon as possible and protect him. While Sasuke was distracted, Haku took the opportunity to disappear and appear near Kiba and Sakura.

"Good reaction, Girl ... but too predictable ..." - said the user of the Ice Element while putting his hands on the shoulders of the two Genin - "Hyoton: Hyoro no Jutsu"

¡Clak!¡Clak!

The two members of Team 7 were wrapped in an ice pillar while the others could only see how everything happened.

Sasuke could not stand the anger to see how his girlfriend Sakura became strawberry ice cream - "BASTARD!"

For all the fury he felt, his Sharingan began to change, now having a new tomoe appeared in his eyes. His Dojutsu had evolved but also something else was strengthened, the curse of the eyes of the Uchihas. The emotions of the Uchihas are quite strong, which is why their eyes wake up or evolve with pain.

Sasuke was enraged. He just wanted to kill Haku so he could free Sakura.

"I guess anger is clouding your judgment ..." - Haku said when he saw how the Uchiha had gone out of control - "Let's finish this ... Hijutsu: Makyo Hyosho!"

Haku began to release a large amount of chakra, forming a dome of 21 ice mirrors, and then entering one of them. Sasuke wasted no time and chased him without thinking twice, a serious mistake because he was now locked in Haku's Jutsu.
