Naruto: Dream to Immortality

Chapter 18: The Reunion

They look at me and the one who I assumed to be an Uchiha was the first to talk. "My name is Kimiri Uchiha of the Uchiha clan."

The Hyuga with the serious face said. "My name is Himi Hyuga."

Then the last one had a smile in his face.

That was kind of unusual because he was a Hyuga. "Hi hero -san my name is Taki Hyuga. The most smiley Hyuga ever."

He jokes. Even though they don't say it, they seem kind of not sure if I have the experience to lead this expedition and they are right I am not very experienced in leading a team of ninja in a journey of different terrain with possible enemies. So I just look at them, smile and say. "Ok then I have a thing to tell you guys. I am not really experienced in leading a team of ninja but I want to learn to do so. So will you give me advice on what I can do better along the way."

They all nod seriously with impressed faces after all a genius child asking for help instead of being arrogant or overconfident but instead is not letting all the praise go to his head is quite surprising. Then we start our jurney then I tell them. "By the way guys do you know any bounty outpost."

Then Kimiri Uchiha takes out a scroll from his jounin vest pocket and throws it to me. I open the scroll and it has the fire country map with various points in it and says. "There all the points are bounty outposts but you have got to look for something that can hide the smell of bodies to specifically pinpoint it so it usually is a bathroom, meat shop or an animal farm. You can also turn in bounties at Konoha."

I nod at him and then as we are going on the road and make some small talk we talk about if the meat shops bountie outpost also sell meat. The answer of which is yes because if there is a meat shop who doesn't sell meat is suspicious and they might even sell meat cheaper becouse they don't really care for the miniscule amount of money they make from it in comparison to being the middleman in a bounty hunt.

Interestingly we didn't encounter any Sand ninja. They probably couldn't get too deep in fire country because they will get killed or captured after all Sakumo took measures against it sience the first time it happened.

Anyway we arrive at konoha relatively fast in 30 hours and we made no stops because the mesage is so important.

When we go inside after some checks that we are not transformed and not mising nin we are allowed in and go to the hokage tower and with the urgent battlefield report excuse we went in immediately to the hokages office.

When we go inside there is the 3rd hokage and 2 members of the konoha council. At least Danzo isn't here he probably is doing something immoral and fishy or trying to eliminate someone that is against the interests of konoha not like I relly care as long as he doesn't do anything against my interests. The hokage sees us and the 3 jonin bow immediately and I bow after I put the scroll in his table. He reads it and says. "I will contact the kazekage and see if we can come to a mutual agreement. You have done well ninja I will put 1 B rank mission in all you records, and 2 S rank, 5 A rank, 3 B rank and 30 C rank in your record Yami Inuzuka. You will be payed 1 million ryo for your mission services. Dismissed."

I then walk out of the hokage office after he has given me a check. In war times ninja don't get payed much or

none at all for missions they make most of their money from bounties if this was peace time I, do some quick math in my head, I would have gotten paid around 5 million ryo at minimum for all those missions. By the way missions pay like this:

C-rank missions pay between 30,000 to 100,000 ryo.

B-rank missions pay between 80,000 to 200,000 ryo.

A-rank missions pay between 150,000 to 1.000.000 ryo

S-rank missions pay at least 1 mill ryo.

If the village payed missions like it did in piece time it would go bankrupt in no time becouse clients are not paying these missions and it has to come from the village. By the way it was a dumb decision by the hokage to want to negotiate with the kazekage I already know what will happen and really, he will probably give back ichibi for a price or deal for ceasefire. But still to give away a weapon for mass destruction even though the ichibi is not as strong as the nine tails it gives its jinchuriki the ability to manipulate sand. That is pretty much an S rank ninja guaranteed for a lot of generations. He thinks like a pacifist like Hashirama but he can't just give a weapon like that away he is not Hashirama. Hashirama did so because he had the kind of power that any beast below the nine tails was nothing to him.

Anyway enough about politics I can finally start my main plan tomorrow. I go to my house and greet my mother. "Hello mother I am back."

She was watering a flower when I did so. When she hears my voice she drops the watering can and looks at me she then tears up and comes and hugs me while crying and says. "MY BABY, MY LITTLE BABY HE IS FINALLY BACK HOME I WAS WORRIED SICK ABOUT YOU."

I look at her, wipe her tears with my fingers and say. "Don't cry mother I am here now am I not."

She nods at me while crying and we sit on the small porch of our small house and I tell her some stories, of course not me fighting and killing kind of stories, but me learning new jutsu, meeting new people and being taught by Tsunade, talks with Sakumo, the beauty of the rivers and different biomes. I lead the conversation arount and making her almost forget I was in a battlefield killing and massacring, making her think that it might not be so bad as the gossips say.

While I am talking I look at her and think sinisterly. How she would react if I told her I took over her baby's body while he was still in the womb. She would try to kill me, get my mind read and even torture me. That is why I will never care about her because if she knew the truth she would hate me with all her heart, that is the best scenario possible and in the worst scenario well.... never underestimate humanity's potential for evil and cruelty. Well its not like I am ever going to tell anybody about my deepest secret I am taking it to the gra...no my eternal life.

Tomorrow is the first step of my plan.
