Banished Hero

Chapter 8

Naruto POV:

I woke up very early today to get ready, I was told my ship will be coming later in the afternoon so I need to go run a few errands, stock up on some more things. I made the bed, making sure to keep the room nice and clean the way it was before I slept in it. I grabbed everything I needed, the gifts I got from my family and the people of Ame. I took my time to seal them properly in scrolls.

 I went downstairs with everything I needed to see Tazuna, Inara and Tsunami waiting at the dinning table. "We were waiting for you come eat" 

The table was filled with lots and lot's of food. "We didn't get to do this last night due to you coming late at night, we wanted you to rest so this morning we decided to have a small feast for your departure.

"All this. For me?" I asked nearly drooling over the food, "yes. With everything you did for us, this is nothing" Tsunami replied, I took a sit next to Inari, whos been quiet through out. "You've really grown Inari" I said with a wide grin, "thank you nii san, am trying to be strong like you" he replied with a grin of his own. I ruffled his hair as his grin widen "hey not much I have to keep it nice when I meet my friend later on" he said "ooh little Inari has got a girlfriend" I said teasingly his eyes widened and he shook his head side way frantically waving his hands.

"No that's not it were just friends" He said Tazuna his granddad and his mother Tsunami joined in on the teasing "my little boy has got a crush" she grabbed both sides of his face squishing it. "Mom, am not little anymore" 

"Nonsense your still my little boy. You got it young man" She said with a menacing aura around her. All three of us gulped as Inari replied in a whisper "yes mom". "What was that young man?"

"Yes mom"

"Why don't we dig in before the food get's cold" Tazuna suggested scared out his mind. Mothers are scary I thought. We ate our food having conversation along the way and I must say. Tsunami's cooking was amazing, I made sure to let her know that all throughout break fast. Once done I helped her washed the plate even though she refused I insisted till she eventually gave in.

"Let go to the supermarket and get you some food stuffs for your travel. Tsunami and Inari go to the docks and see if the man for the boat is here" Tazuna said as he wore his sandals. "I can't believe your leaving. I won't see you anymore" Inari said sad, "you'll still see me. I promise to come visiting"

"You promise" He said with hope I nodded

"Yes I promise and here this something that is very dare to me. Take care of it for me, will you?" I asked handing him a set of my kunai knives that I specially made. "Yes, of cause. Thank you" Inari grabbed the set from me looking at them in awe before giving me a hug saying thank you over and over.

"Thank you for everything Naruto and please do visit. Don't be a stranger, your always welcomed here" Tsunami said pulling me into a hug "I won't. Thank you for taking care of me I will never forget this" we pulled away from the hug  "Am ready Tazuna san. Bye Tsunami nii chan, bye Inari. See you guys at the dock." I said to them. We left the house and headed to the town, the people wave at me with smiles and welcoming gaze, even greeting me. I greeted them back smiling at them and even talking to some of them along the way.

Throughout our journey to the market to shop for things I need Tazuna was very quiet and sad, joking around here and there. 

"Hello welcome to Trident shinobi shop." The merchant said as we waked into the weapon shop, we greeted him and looked around for things I will need.

I walked straight to the clothe section, grabbing four pair of anbu pants, three pair of boxers, two pair each of shinobi sandals and civilian sandals, two fishnet, one orange vest with the Uzumaki symbol, and three shirts. I already have a few clothes that I packed. Adding with the ones am currently buying and the things I got as gifts from Ame it will be enough for the trip. I had more than enough money for shopping.
