YEAHHHH! ALRIGHT!" Naruto yelled at the top of his voice.
Not a minute after they exited the village the hyperactive ninja was at it again.
"What are you getting so excited about Naruto?" Sakura asked.
"This is the first time I've ever left the village! I'm a traveller now believe it!" The blonde boy then proceeded to dart around like he'd just eaten too much sugar, annoying the bridge builder Tazuna.
"Hey am I supposed to trust my life to this runt he's a joke!" Tazuna complained.
Naruto immediately froze and Sakura glared. This guy really liked to push Naruto's buttons but the problem was Team 7 had to deal with him.
Kakashi chuckled "He's with me and I'm a Jounin so you don't need to worry."
Sakura watched as Naruto stood motionless, she turned to Sasuke who glared at Tazuna echoing her thoughts.
Why'd we have to get this old geezer to guard? I'm going to cut him down a size right now!Naruto thought angrily before turning around and letting the bridge builder have it.
"HEY! Never insult a ninja it's a big mistake and I'm the greatest ninja ever! Someday I'm going to be a Hokage and you'll look up to me! My name is Naruto Uzumaki. Remember it!" The blonde boy yelled.
"Hokage are powerful and wise, you are puny and brainless. The day you become Hokage I'll sprout wings and fly." Tazuna said and took another sip from his faithful bottle of alcohol.
Naruto was beyond frustrated. "ARGH! SHUT UP! I'M WILLING TO DO ANYTHING TO BECOME HOKAGE NO MATTER WHAT IT TAKES! AND WHEN I DO EVERYONE WILL HAVE TO ADMIT THAT I'M THE TOP NINJA INCLUDING YOU!"
The bridge builder smirked and looked at the loudmouth ninja. "Hmph. You can become Hokage ten times over and to me you'll still be nobody, a loser."
Kakashi sighed and once again reached for Naruto's collar. "I'M GOING TO MAKE YOU PAY FOR THAT RIGHT NOW! HEY LET GO OF ME!"
Tightening his grip on the blonde ninja, the Jounin tugged him back "I told you you're supposed to protect the client not attack him."
Tazuna walked straight passed Naruto and with that the mission had begun.
Unbeknownst to Team 7, two ninja concealed in the trees were paying very close attention to all that was going on and especially close attention to the alcoholic bridge builder. Naruto took the lead and walked a meter in front of everyone; Sakura suspected he was trying to prove himself to the bridge builder who seemed to loathe his existence. She and Sasuke walked on the right side of Tazuna and Kakashi on the left.
Sakura, to take her mind off more pressing matters, decided to voice a question she'd been thinking about since they started the mission.
"Kakashi-sensei, are there any ninja within the Land of Waves?"
"No there are no ninja in the Land Of Waves. But in other countries there are hidden villages with their own customs and cultures where ninja reside" Kakashi replied and Sakura nodded.
"To the people of this content the existence of shinobi villages means strength. Military strength. In other words that's how they protect themselves and maintain the balance of power with neighbouring countries. The ninja villages are not controlled by any government, they're independent and have equal status." Kakashi explained.
"So how does the Land of Waves protect itself without ninja?" Sasuke asked joining the conversation.
"A small island like the Land of Waves has natural protection from the sea, so there is no need for a ninja village. The five ancient lands that possess shinobi villages are the lands of Fire, Water, Lightning and Earth. They each occupy vast territories, together they're known as the Five Great Shinobi Nations." Kakashi replied.
