naruto pov

since the first mate and captain learned of narutos power the question had been on everyones lips- what had put HIM in that condition?

naruto knew what they wanted to ask, but he couldn't think of the war, instead he told them about the days in the academy. ussopp the ships sniper had been amazed that there was a whole village with the ability to do what he could, and naruto didn't correct him.

he'd discovered a pulling feeling coming from where they were headed it was like he could feel the pull of the island much like the log pose thingy could, he'd told the navigator who had tested it out and had been amazed that he really could, just like a log pose.

he'd taken to leaving a clone behind on the ship at 4;00am and running off in the distance of where they were heading to practice his chakra so he wouldn't accidentally blow a hole in the ship because of a nightmare

he had asked the skeleton why he was a skeleton, the story was sad, but now he knew that there were dangers on the seas they travelled.

it was one morning that he was about to make a clone when the hilt of a sword was placed onto his shoulder.

"OI where do you go every morning at this time?" zoro asked

i smiled a small smile and grabbed his hand leaping off the ship and sending two clones back on board one as zoro.

today he would show zoro.

after leaping off the ship he landed and forced enough chakra through the water that it hardened for a full 10 meters around him and that was what zoro landed on.

zoro grunted as he landed in a crouch. they ran for an hour with naruto making sure he didn't run too far ahead..

then naruto pulled his katana out of a sealing tattoo kakashi had forced onto him as a "birthday present" and turned towards zoro.

today we will spar, and i will show you a thing or two,  zoro gained a dangerous glint in his eye and under the open sky with the light pink tones and the fading stars they sparred.

naruto forced all his emotions and pain into his katana forcing it through into zoros like he and sasuke used to do.

his pain of finding out about the fox, his pain of losing sasuke and witnessing sakura cry, the pain of breaking his promise, the pain of being hidden while people died for him.

the pain of losing his friends the pain of broken bones and fake smiles the pain of haku dying the pain of nobody listening

the pain of fighting a war for people who wanted him dead the pain of not being quick enough to save his fellow jinchuriki the pain of watching gaara die and the joy of his survival,

the pain of losing hope in a war which he fought with one other, the pain of knowing the other would abandon him again as soon as the war was over. the pain of watching his best friend lose his arm,

the grim realisation that he would have to die for them to save the people who beat him as a kid the people who hated him, wished him dead and blamed him for the death of their loved ones.

the pain of giving up his dream for the villages who hated him and the pain of never seeing hinata again.

he forced it all out and into his sword willing zoro to understand as they traded sword blows.

and zoro sent back his pain the pain of being the cause of death of his best friend, the pain of carrying her dream with him while looking after his new family
