Chapter 9 - Chapter 9

The faithful day had arrived and finally I could deal with all the excitement I had built up; the ninja world was boring so I barely had anything I could do to entertain myself so having something to look forward to made me excited.

I had gotten tired of having nothing to do so I created a clone and had it stay in my place, I left the village and applied a transformation technique on myself to have an adult body I could move around with, and it felt so good to no longer feel short, as for what I could do to entertain myself in the ninja world? What else but gambling, reading and killing.

Gambling was fun, I would manipulate the results and make things go bad for me and when everyone would think I'm a big sheep like Tsunade I would bet millions in one go and have everyone else bet against me then I would win and take away all their earnings, the despair they felt sure did put a smile on my face.

I had met Tsunade when gambling and oh boy I have never seen such horrible gambling luck in my both of my lives, I could almost understand why the will of the world let her stay single, it knew there was no man alive that could handle all the debt they would end up in when they were tied to Tsunade for life.

I had helped her win for the fun of it and instantly she started getting anxious and was looking everywhere for danger, it was quite pitiful that her first thought when things were going well for her was that misfortune was around the corner and oh boy was I shocked, apparently all the people she had debts with had gathered a bunch of ninja and surrounded her not long after she left and made her pay back the money with what she had just earned.

I was dazed because I was clearly the one that helped her win, but she was still met with misfortune and lost the money she earned, Shizune was crying blood muttering how after all the misfortune she could finally walk home with money just to lose it to debt and how she had to find some work to replace the money they didn't have.

I couldn't help but feel bad for her since she practically wasted her life with Tsunade so I gave her a few suggestions while letting her know it was a gift from a great god, so now she creates a clone to disguise itself and play against Tsunade so they are less in debt but just for the fun of it I allowed Tsunade to win some other games and the same thing repeated itself with a bunch of people that she owed money coming to collect their debts with ninjas to back them up, eventually she paid off their debt and Shizune was able to sleep with a smile on her face.

I quickly lost interest in their lives as it was basically repetitive, so I left to explore the world, I had bought the icha icha paradise books, they were not what I thought they would be, it was bland but it is clearly ahead of its time given that the ninja world is far behind in entertainment and it surprisingly isn't unreadable so I finished reading all of them I even took some copies from the future I also took some from parallel worlds where Jiraiya didn't die, this will probably be worth a ton in the future.

I finally got my first kill, it was with a ninja; it was surprisingly a female ninja, she kidnapped attractive men and had her way with them before torturing them and selling their organs. She had made me her target but she was unaware she had targeted a walking God, I had her tell me all the things she did and the more she spoke the more disgusted I was, I had thought that men would be the most likely to do horrible things but it seems that as long as there was a world where it was survival of the fittest even the most beautiful and innocent looking women would have a few skeletons in the closet.

I proceeded to kill rouge ninjas that had weird hobbies or killed just for the fun of it, I never liked heroes because they would be willing to allow more people die when they could just end the lives of the people that would continue to kill others for fun like its their bread and butter, so I decided to become the batman the ninja world didn't know it needed.

My name became feared in the ninja world, and by name I naturally mean batman. I had my alias in the bingo book for 100,000,000 Ryo dead or alive. I was met with many bounty hunters, but I ended all of them, I even ran into Kakuzu but he was vital to the plot so I just got rid of four of his hearts and knocked him out but before that I let him know the only reason he lived is because I wanted him to live in fear of me, to replace his fear of Hashirama with me now he can go around telling people he survived fighting against both Hashirama and the batman that's got to be the best resume a man can have in the ninja world.

I made sure to get back to the village to be on time for the meeting with Hinata, I had dressed up in my winter jacket and went out towards where the bullying would happen and just bought food along the way so I wouldn't be suspicious, the hyuga clan is a clan of perverts, I have unfortunately seen a bunch of them getting of to the nightly activities of others with their byakugans nut hey I am not one to judge you do you.

I arrived on time to see some kids bullying a girl with lilac-colored eyes, her eyes looked much better than the eyes of other members of the hyuga clan well enough being distracted time to make my appearance.

"Oi, what are you guys doing! Aren't you ashamed of yourselves bullying someone younger than you?" I reprimanded them for their actions, but I was naturally expecting some anime cliché reply

The kid that seemed to be the leader of their group was the one to reply "huh? Who the heck are you this isn't any of your business"

"You are clearly bullying a girl, so I've decided to make it my business"

"How can you defend her when she has such creepy eyes, I heard my parents say that the people with those creepy eyes can watch you when you are using the toilet, I'm sure she does it all the time"

"I- I don't do that no one in our clan does" Hinata tried to defend herself and her clan, but her voice was meek and barely audible she is cute and I can tell she can easily put these fools down but she is too weak willed to do it, as much as I would like to defend her and say they don't do such things there are deviants no matter where you go, all it takes for a human to do something bad is the thought 'since its possible to do it why not?'

"Lets just end it here, hey hyuga girl what's your name?"

"H-Hinata, my name is Hyuga Hinata"

"Isn't that the name of the daughter of the head of the hyuga clan, I can't imagine what would happen if he found out a bunch of nobodies were bullying his daughter, maybe their family might just disappear"

I released a bit of intimidation to scare them, and my plan was successful, they weren't willing to risk their lives to bully a kid that hadn't really done anything to them, so they left while shouting the usual generic bad guy quote "this isn't over"

"Are you okay? You don't seem like you were hurt, seems they were smart enough not to over do it"

"i-im fine emm thank you for your help"

"Its fine, what I don't understand is why you allowed them bully you, from what I've heard people from clans start training when they are four and you don't look younger than four so why allow them cause you trouble when you could know them out easily, I heard the hyuga clan was the best at taijutsu"

"That… I didn't want to hurt them"

She replied in the quietest voice but being as powerful as I am I could both hear her and read her lips as it was basically moving in slow motion for me

"I think its cool that you don't want to hurt people, it shows how sweet you are"

She started blushing intensely I must say the kids in the ninja word are very precocious but I'm not here to compliment her she needs to know that her misplaced kindness can put her and those around her in danger

"Do you have any siblings Hinata?"

"Ehh? I-I just got a little sister why?"

"If those guys decided to bully your baby sister, would you have allowed them do so because you didn't want to hurt them?"

"No!" she surprisingly shouted, didn't think she had it in her but alas her spike in courage died as soon as it came, and she was meek and shy again

"Well, its good you know that you shouldn't always show kindness, I hope you can remember this quote 'kindness to your enemy is cruelty to yourself' I don't want to see a cutie like you get hurt because you were nice to the wrong people or at the wrong time see you later Hinata!"

I decided to leave as I sensed her guard approaching, I could hear Hinata muttering about me calling her cute and just like that the fateful meeting between Naruto and Hinata was replaced by me, hopefully she takes what I told her seriously, I didn't like when I saw her injured by Neji, so I hope she changes a bit, not too much though I like her sweet personality.

Now I have to find stuff to kill time before I turn ten and start my own restaurant, well I'll figure something out after the winter period ends, this batman definitely takes Christmas breaks.
