The Path Of a Hunternin

Finding the rat

After seeing Mizuke's face in the bingo book, Naruto closed it and got up. The man was stupid enough to remain within Fire Country's territory, even though he tried escaping two times already. Surprisingly enough, Mizuki was considered a jounin level ninja, even if he was a chunnin at the time he betrayed Konoha. "Correct if I'm wrong, but this Mizuki wasn't the guy who experimented on Orochimaru's potion, thus losing the ability to manipulate chakra" Said Kyuubi to which Naruto nodded. Yes, you're right. However, we don't know what happened to him after that time. Maybe, someone healed the effects or something.

The blond looked around a while and saw that he was positioned in a clear place, thus being able to train some more, before initiating his hunt on Mizuki. After all, it wouldn't be fair to appear before the man and not see the look on pure horror on his face one he figures out Naruto, once more, stopped him with a superior technique. Summoning a group of kage bunshins, Naruto took his sword and began fighting against his clones.

===With Jiraya===

The pervert was seen drinking some sake and eating some dango. Even though it was clouded today, the pervert was smiling which meant that today would be interesting to say the least. Today would be the time where his counter-intelligence mission will be responsible for taking out two Akatsuki members altogether. Jiraya presumed that the ones that were located near Snow Country, would once again search for Naruto in River Country, since the pervert happened to inform Konoha of his fake whereabouts just so that Hidan and Kakuzu comes and fall right into the trap carefully elaborated by both Jiraya and the Toads.

Jiraya was so trapped inside his own wonderings that he failed to see that the waitress came asking him if he wanted anything more, thus waking the man from his daydreaming. "Well, yes my dear, I was hoping to invite a beautiful woman like you for some dinner later tonight" whispered Jiraya closely to the girl's ears, making the young girl blush from the remark so much, that she used a napkin she was holding and covered her face in order to hide her red face, before rushing back to the kitchen. Jiraya laughed out loud about the girl's antics and immediately an idea popped inside his mind as to an update to his new book.

Some people called him a bloody pervert or the entire woman population. However, Jiraya either didn't care of became amused by receiving said nickname. Actually, Jiraya's peeping activity served two purposes. One was filling his old mind with dirty ideas and passing them to his books, thus increasing his economy and the other was important Intel. Come to speak of it, some of Jiraya's spies happen to be disguised hookers. According to the pervert, a hooker has the ability of knowing everything from a man just by swinging her hips in a sexual manner and teasing men. Also, since all of them were either drunk or drugged, opening their mouth to speak wasn't a problem.

Getting up, he left money on the table and scream to let the waitress know where the money was. Right now, he needed to go visit his spy a few blocks from his position and ask what information the man has for him. Walking around, Jiraya's mind wondered back to his first blond student and the repercussions that transformed Naruto into one of the most efficient hunter-nins to ever use the mask. Jiraya always knew that the hunter-nin position were dedicated to not so experienced shinobi who were better off hunting some missing-nins and trying to help Konoha the best way they could, which wasn't much in the end, since the bingo book was getting thicker and the hunter-nins were being killed one by one.

Actually, the only one good enough to be considered the elite, was the now hunter-nin commander Uzuki Gaeshi. However, where Orochimaru is insane, Gaeshi is vicious. In fact, Jiraya, once, remembered witnessing the man doing his job once. But instead of a swift kill, Gaeshi pretty much mutilated every part of the enemy's body, before remembering to burn the corpse. While Naruto's kill isn't like Gaeshi's, Jiraya was wondering about what would be like for Naruto in the future. Being a hunter-nin meant to kill and kill more. The blond wouldn't be doing anything different for quite a while and the thought of seeing a bloodthirsty Naruto walking around Konoha was unnerving to say the least.
