Rebirth Of The Namikaze

Chapter 4

Recap:
Kakashi and his genin looked on confused, one moment, Kakashi was winning the battle for sure, the next, Zabuza is caught with two senbon in the neck. Team 7 moved closer, but suddenly...

A Kiri ANBU suddenly dropped down in front of the team. "Thank you. I've been chasing Zabuza-san for quite a while. You've made the capture that much easier." Spoke the ANBU as Kakashi checked foor a pulse on the Kirigakure no Kijin, only to find nothing. "Yep, he's definitely dead. Alright. Thank you ANBU-san." Spoke Kakashi.

"I thank you. I'll be off now." Spoke the ANBU as he took Zabuza's body and disappeared into the trees. "Ok guys. Now let's get-" Before Kakashi could finish his sentence, exhaustion suddenly overcame him as his body slumped and fell. Before the man could hit the ground, Naruto with the help of some Moku Bunshin caught the cyclops Jōnin.

"Tazuna-san. How far is your house?" Asked Naruto. "It's not far from here, we should be able to get there in an hour." Tazuna said as the genin nodded and ran as fast as they could with Tazuna.

Twam 7 reached the house in 40 minutes as Tazuna knocked on the door, clearly out of breath. After a couple seconds, a tall woman opened the door, a happy expression on her face and a kid hugging her leg tightly.

"Tou-chan!" She exclaimed as the kid looked up at the man. "Jiji!!" The boy exclaimed as he ran into Tazuna's arms. "Ohoho! Inari-kun, Tsunami-chan. We're going to be okay. These ninja accepted my mission to free the wave of Gatō's rule." Tazuna explained as Tsunami turned to the three genin.

"Thank you for helping my father." She said politely. "No problem. We also need a room to help our sensei rest." Naruto spoke. "Ah. Follow me." Tsunami said as she led the genin and Naruto's clones into the house.

1 Day Later-
Kakashi sprung up from his Fuuton and looked around, remembering what happened. 'Damn. Chakra exhaustion.' The jōnin thought before looking towards the door, seeing his genin walk in. "Sensei, you're awake!" Sakura exclaimed as Kakashi winced. "Maa maa, Sakura. Do you need to be so loud?" Kakashi asked as Sakura looked down in embarrassment.

"Anyway guys. We need to train immediately. I have an inkling that Zabuza isn't actually dead." Kakashi said as his genin looked at him shocked. "But the hunter-nin-" Sakura started. "He took the body. I read that ANBU are supposed to destroy the body and take the head, but that hunter-nin took the whole body. Also the fact that he used Senbon, which are very hard to kill someone with. He must've put Zabuza in a death like state and tricked us into thinking he killed Zabuza." Naruto analysed perfectly.

"That is incredibly accurate, and exactly what I was going to say. Yes. Zabuza is alive, which is why we need to start training immediately." Kakashi explained. "But sensei, how are you going to train us if you're incapacitated?" Sakura asked Kakashi as he smiled. "Do you three know of the Tree-Climbing exercise?" Kakashi asked. "Hai. Me and Sasuke have completed all the chakra control exercises." Naruto said.

"Ah. Well. I guess I'll help Sakura with the tree climbing exercise. What kind of training do you guys want?" Asked Kakashi. "Can I have a couple of Katon Ninjutsu scrolls to train with, once I've finished with those then I'll train my taijutsu." Sasuke said. "I'll be studying my Fūinjutsu while my clones do some light training. All I ask for is chakra paper." Naruto said as Kakashi nodded while handing him the paper.

A secluded area in the forest-
Five Hundred of Naruto's stood behind one with multiple scrolls. "Alright. Once I've checked my nature affinities, I'll give you guys some jutsus of each element I picked from the library back at home and you work on those while I study my father's Hiraishin." Naruto spoke as the clones nodded.

The boy then channeled his chakra into the paper and watched as it split into four pieces. One quarter of it became really soggy and wet, to the point of the paper ripping showcasing a very powerful water affinity. Another quarter of the paper rapidly disintergrating into dust, showcasing a strong affinity for eath. There was also a branch over it connecting the water and earth affinities. Another quarter of the paper ignited and quickly turned to ash and the last quarter of the paper wrinkled up into a little ball.
