Back In Time

Chapter 4

-Nami no Kuni (Land of Waves)

After a day of rest, Kakashi has finally recovered. He instantly began questioning Naruto.

"Naruto. My eyes were in sharingan for the second time. What. Was. That." Kakashi said seriously. Naruto frowned.

"Alright, alright... Geez, I guess I'll be surprised if you haven't talked to me like this... And after you, Sasuke... I swear all you sharingan users..." Naruto said. Sighing, he ran his hand through his hair in an irritated face. Kakashi rose an eyebrow at his attitude.

"I won't tell you till it's time and that's that. Unless you want to get your ass kicked again and if you tell the hokage or anyone for that matter... They'll just think you're absurd" Naruto said. Kakashi's eyes narrowed.

"Fine. I'll tell you if you remove your mask"

'Do you think this is a good idea?' The kyuubi said from Naruto's head.

'It'll be fine. On all my years, I have never seen Kakashi's face'

Naruto cut the link.

"Oh and I won't be falling for that what's under your mask is another mask trick" Naruto said. Kakashi's eye widened as Naruto smirked.

"Remove all of it." Naruto said. Kakashi stopped his hand and sighed.

"Fine. Keep your secret. But I will find out"

"Yeah good luck on that" Naruto said walking away. He encountered Inari. He sighed. Well motivating people can't always be bad. He remembered visiting the waves one time and seeing Inari's fangirls. It was very funny.

-Somewhere...

Zabuza grunted. He cannot believe that he was beaten by that idiotic genin. Well technically, Kakashi but still.

-Back to team 7

Kakashi gathered team 7 and explained the tree walking exercise. Sakura, being a natural expert, aced it. Sasuke brooded over the fact that he was beaten by Sakura. Naruto stared at the tree. Tree walking came very natural to him. It was like answering 1 plus 1 and if you did, you'll get a bag of chocolate. Yes, that urge.

Naruto failed anyway. For the already irritated Sasuke's sake. He always thought himself as the little brother but seeing as how things are... He can't screw it up. He simply have to deal with it. He was excited for the exams though. Now that's where he'll change things.

(To clear things up. I'm pretty sure the meeting with Inari changed some things. So...)

Naruto ate in silence. Everyone did.

'What happened over there?! I was... Useless! While he... He was...' Sasuke trailed on his thoughts. Naruto noticed how Sasuke was acting and his eyes instantly narrowed. Naruto pushed away his chair and left the dining room first saying,

"I'm going somewhere. I'll be back soon"

Naruto instantly headed in Gato's quarters knowing that Zabuza and Haku will be there. He was using sage mode so his more weak body can adopt. He killed some men on his way to Zabuza and Haku. He finally reached them with Haku and Zabuza surprised. He instantly made both of his clones point a kunai on their necks, immediately stopping them. He made both of his clones shunshin Zabuza and Haku to a place in the forest.

-Forest

"Zabuza, Haku. Do you value your lives?"

At this, Zabuza's eyes narrowed.

"What is your business with us?" Zabuza asked. Naruto looked at him seriously. He perfectly henged himself into his future self.

"Ahh... Much better" Naruto said.

"Since I won't be seeing both of you in a while... I might as well explain some things"

Naruto explained how he was from the future and explained his speech. He finally explained his plan to which Zabuza and Haku agreed. This was his plan;

"Zabuza, Haku. Since I became hokage, I learned some tricks. I can create a full and perfect clone that will live like real bodies but will pop in the end of this day. This goes for their corpses too. It will take a lot of chakra but with my guest... I will manage. Both of you at some point of the battle, will create a distraction and switch with me. It is when Haku fake kills Sasuke. Leave the distraction to me. I'm good with that. After that, both of you may live your lives in peace but as dead people. Do you agree with this plan?" Naruto asked the both of them. The 2 nodded and Naruto grinned.

"Live a peaceful life and aid us at some point when I tell you. And Zabuza? After the fight, remove the mask, make your teeth normal and drop the sword. Unless you want to be discovered of course"

"I get it already. Don't remind me"

"We pay you a great deal for this, Naruto-san"

"Well let's see what the future has in lie for us!"

At that, Naruto bid his farewell. He practiced his body for speed and strength instead of doing the stupid tree exercise. He'll look beat either way.

After a few days, The time has finally come. It was time for the battle at the bridge. Haku seemed a bit doubtful fighting Naruto but he said he'll hold back. Greatly. Well he did keep his word for that. Haku thought it was pitiful. Someone so strong... Finally the time came. Naruto's clone popped and he accessed some of Kurama's chakra.

He made the 2 clones and made the switch as Naruto beat Haku/himself. Naruto released some of Kurama's chakra. That was enough to catch Kakashi's attention, even for a few seconds. Kakashi noticed that Zabuza's skill was becoming a bit sloppy. He finally launched Chidori and hit Haku who sacrificed himself. His clones played it so well that it was worth applauding. Zabuza/ Naruto's clone Went in a fury. Finally, the mission has come to an end with Tazuna naming the bridge:

The great Naruto bridge

It was a fun mission indeed. Naruto has a cheerful look on his face. It was time. The chunin exams were next.
