"Then let's go." Naruto said as the team moved to their destination, while all of them were alert, Naruto was expanding his Chakra sense, to locate any threats before they even reached them.
'I'm tired.' A thought passed Naruto's mind before he shook his head.
The Sun was bright with soft wind sometimes brushing against them.
Naruto walked with peace while Sasuke time to time glanced at him, with Hinata also glancing at him. Hinata was mesmerised by Naruto.'He is so strong, nothing like me.' Hinata thought as she hid her face in her sleeves.
While Sasuke was attached to Naruto, she didn't know if she would be able to live without him, even through darkness he called her.
'I want to be like him.' A thought passed her mind, before her eyes strayed to his lips and his neck.
*Gulp*
Sasuke gulped as she thought about doing something weird to her friend.
While Sakura was confused and curious of why was Sasuke was looking at Naruto like he was a god.
'Does, Sasuke like boys?' Sakura thought before she shook her head as she got a nose bleed.
"Although that would be hot if Sasuke and Naruto-sensei would-" Sakura whispered to herself as a perverted look appeared on her face, while she giggled to herself.
Sasuke feeling a gaze on herself turned to look at Sakura, who had a face of a pervert.
"Hentai." Sasuke said as she looked at her.
Sakura went stiff as she froze 'Sasuke-kun thinks I'm hentai, my life is r-ruined.'
After few hours of walking, the team was silent, while the Old Bridge Builder was in the middle and Naruto was at the front and the girls were on each side protecting the client from any danger.
The squad walked pass a puddle, but multiple chains sprouted from the ground beneath Naruto, sharp as any sword suddenly wrapped around his arm and legs and then his torso.
Until two men slowly came out of the ground, with smirks on their faces.
They opened their mouth to say something but couldn't, only bloody gasps of air passed through them.
They were confused while the 3 girls and the old man looked at them with horror.
'What's happening.' Their thoughts allingned.
They felt something hanging from their faces, they moved their hands to get the feel of what it is.
One of the man touched the thing hanging, supported it with his hand, and looked down at it.
It was his jaw, ripped apart from it sockets, muscle teared while the saliva mixed with blood dropped down.
"AAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!" He screamed as well as his partner with horror, both of their jaws ripped apart from their faces.
Naruto tied their hands and legs while they were stunned in horror and pain, as if giving up on living.
"Kill them." Naruto ordered as he gave Kunai to the two girls, Sasuke and Sakura.
He wanted Hinata to also kill, so that she must not be stunned in a real battle, but there was not another person who could fill the empty space.
Sasuke was the first one to move, as she grabbed the Kunai from Naruto's hand as her eyes and hands trembled with Adrenaline.
She looked at him, his disfigured face, only tears of pain came out of his eyes. She hesitated.
"Waiting more would only make him suffer more, end him now." Naruto said nonchalantly.
*SWISH*
The blade ran deep, cutting his throat in an instant, as the man dropped on the ground, lifeless.
*Thud*.
Sasuke, grunted as she looked as if she was about to puke but held it in.
"You did good." Naruto said as he ruffled her hair.
Naruto looked at Sasuke and smiled as he used his chakra to calm her down.
Naruto then looked at Sakura and saw her trembling, he sighed and patted her, he placed the kunai in her hand and used her hand and guided her to cut the next person's neck.
*Stab*
The Kunai was inserted in the ninja neck as his eyes red star
With each movement and gush of blood that came, Sakura trembled each time, tears pouring from her eyes, as she hyper ventilated.
"Sakura, it's okay, you will do better next, time, I only wanted for you to be safe on the battlefield, and be prepared in the next battle you face, okay?" Naruto said as he reassured her with a pat on her head, which surprisingly made her a lot calmer than she thought.
Sakura looked at Naruto as she nodded and wiped her tears away, relaxing, comforted by his words.
