Naruto is Reincarnated

(Whoosh!)

Two figures appeared out of thin air.

"Th-This… This is…"

"You're right old man, It's the Great Naruto Bridge," Naruto said with a smile.

"You really weren't kidding…" Tazuna said with a shocked expression as he looked all around to make sure he was in the Land of waves.

It was a known fact, that the journey could take days to even weeks to reach the Hidden Leaf from the land of the waves, but Naruto and Tazuna arrived at their destination within an instant.

"Hmm?" Naruto turned towards the entrance of the bridge, which was a few meters away from the spot he had marked for instant tra.. (Ahem! I mean…) Flying thunder god.

The place where Naruto stared at, there stood five figures next to one of the pillars that made the entrance of the bridge.

"Hey look over there," One of the men from the group pointed towards Naruto and Tazuna.

"There's a blonde kid and that old man from the poster,"

"Hey, wait a minute! Ain't that the village chief and bridge builder, Tazuna?" One of the other men asked.

"Hurry up and capture him before he slips," One of the others, urged the group.

…

The men quickly ran over and assembled in front of Naruto and Tazuna.

"Both of you…" The man who was about to say something had his throat stuck.

"That forehead protector…" The man stared at the headband that Naruto wore.

"Yo-You're from t-th-the Hidden L-Leaf," The man stammered and started sweating.

"What are you afraid for its just one-blonde kid," the others in the group said before they pounced on Naruto and Tazuna.

*sh!*

Four figures instantly fell to the ground unconscious.

"Haha, looks like ya know about my village!" Naruto said as he proudly showed off his headband.

"Of-o-of c-course, Everyone knows that the Hidden leaf is a strong ninja village," The man said.

"I see…" Naruto nodded as he calmly walked over.

"W-wait! What are you trying to do?" The man asked.

"Hehe, It's nothing much," Naruto said as he put his arm around the man's neck and grabbed him, forcing the man to bend lower than Naruto's height with his head inside Naruto's arm lock.

"Say, why is your employer trying to make things difficult for these peaceful villagers," Naruto said as he pointed towards Tazuna.

Tazuna smiled taking a bottle of Sake out his bag, he drank a sip before looking at the man in the eye. "All we want is to lead a prosperous life. Tell me, Who wouldn't want to work hard and settle down to drink a nice cup of sake at the end of the day?" Tazuna asked.

"E-eh?" The man was confused.

"Listen up will ya? All we need is for you guys to stop blocking the bridge and leave this place," Naruto said.

"But…" The man hesitated.

"Look, let's cut the crap and get right to it! I know y'all took this opportunity since a certain group was able to back y'all. So how about you take me to your leader?," Naruto asked.

"O-Okay… I'll take you to the leader," the man replied seeing that he wouldn't be able to refuse.

"Glad to hear ya know," Naruto smiled.

Soon the three were on their way walking through the border of the village.

…

About a few minutes into the journey…

"Huh?" Tazuna stopped mid-way.

Naruto and the man who was walking also stopped.

In front of the group were a couple of people marching forward at a relative pace with pitchforks and handmade weapons.

"They're all for the village," Tazuna exclaimed in shock.

"Something must've happened," Naruto quickly judged from the weapons being held in their hand.

"I'll find out," Naruto said following which he sprinted towards the group of people.

"Wait for me," Tazuna also quickly followed through.

…

Naruto quickly overtook the group and landed right in front.

"Everyone, please hold it right there!" Naruto said as he put forth his left palm indicating for them to stop.

"Hey, Is that…"

"It's Naruto!" One of the builders immediately recognized Naruto, from having worked on the bridge along with Tazuna.

"Hi…," Naruto waved at the group. By then, Tazuna and the man from before also caught up and walked towards the front of the group.

"Tazuna!" The other builders shouted out his name in urgency.

"What happened here?" Tazuna asked following which he lifted his finger pointing towards one of the villagers holding a weapon.

"Why is everyone walking with weapons?" Tazuna asked.

"Tazuna," An elder stepped out from the group.

"Matsuda," Tazuna called out the elder's name.

Matsuda looked at Tazuna with sadness. "Tazuna, we…"

…

By the end of the explanation, Naruto and Tazuna were very angry, especially Naruto who was clenching his fists very badly.

They had heard everything from the Hidden Mist trackers to Tsunami and Inari being kidnapped, along with Inari's inspiring actions.

"I'll find out where they are," Naruto said as he quickly sat on the floor.

"What are you doing?" Tazuna asked only to see Naruto remaining silent.

About a minute later, Naruto opened his eyes.

< Sage Mode >

All life forces within a few kilometers were instantly within Naruto's sensory range.

"Found them!" Naruto immediately reported with more anger than before.

("Inari is okay but badly hurt, his mom seems all right but for now both of them seem to be unconscious…") Naruto judged the situation.

"I'll head out first, and take out those other ninjas," Naruto said to Matsuda.

"Thanks," Matsuda nodded immediately.

"Naruto,"

"Be careful," Tazuna said as he put his hand on Naruto's shoulder.

"Mm," Naruto nodded, following which he got up. He then looked at the man he had met on the bridge earlier.

"Lead them to that place," Naruto said.

"Ok," The man helplessly agreed once more to Naruto's demand.

(Woosh!)

Naruto took off immediately, not waiting a moment longer as it became his duty to protect Inari who bravely stood up for everyone.

"Leaf the way," Tazuna said to the man.

"Mm," The man nodded following which everyone took off.

…

(Woosh!)

Naruto landed on a tree branch. He then squatted on the branch to take a closer look at what happened to be a huge ragged old warehouse that was on the outskirts of the village. It was the Hideout that Gozaburo and his men were currently in.

All the men were busy playing poker while one of them was guarding Tsunami and Inari who were unconscious.

"Okay…" Naruto prepared himself for the strike.

(Whoosh!)

Naruto flew out at a speed that was almost like he had teleported directly into the house.

*Katcha*

A tile in the roof broke.

The mist ninjas who were hidden in the upper part of the house were confused to sense a ninja breakthrough without alerting them.

And then, there was only a flash,

"What?" The mist ninjas were shocked to see a ninja right in front of them move so fast, that it was almost invisible to their eyes.

(Whoosh!)

Naruto who had finished dealing with the other men swiftly landed a palm strike on Gozaburo's neck rending him unconscious.

"Now!" All the mist ninjas in the vicinity threw out their acupuncture needles in frustration towards the spot where Naruto stood.

*sh!*

It was only a slight movement,

Naruto did not completely dodge the needles, instead only made sure it avoided his vital spots.

"That's impossible," The mist ninjas were shocked once again not only to see him dodge but also finally able to see Naruto for the first time clearly and realize he's not even a fifteen-year-old.

"Done yet?" Naruto asked trying to be as patient as possible.

(Whoosh!)

A tracker from the Hidden Mist landed on the floor

"Who are you?" The ninja asked Naruto.

Naruto looked at all the ninjas in the room, before finally looking at the ninja who asked the question. Naruto got up slowly and took off the needles one by one.

"I am a Hidden Leaf Ninja. The name is Uzumaki Naruto," Naruto announced as he continued to remove the pins.

"Naruto?" The ninjas thought hard trying to remember in particular if there were any infamous/famous ninjas that they knew of by that name.

"Who I am is not important than what I am about to say…" Naruto said as he finally took off the last needle.

"Head back to your village at once and make sure the Mizukage is safe," Naruto said, pulling off the card he had saved.

"Our mizukage?" Another ninja asked.

"Our Mizukage is the strongest Mizukage in the History of the village. He's the only tailed beast host who is in full control of the three tails. He's also the reason we are known as the Bloody Mist today," A tracker said with pride.

"Yes, I am aware, however, I can tell that he's not safe since I am a Jinchūriki of the Hidden Leaf," Naruto announced.

"A jinchūriki?" Another tracker asked in doubt.

*Sh!* a sound was heard from Naruto's body.

"That's…"

"R-rapid Healing," two mist trackers noticed.

"It's one of the Nine-tail's abilities, rapid healing," A tracker mentioned.

"It's up to you if you want to take my words seriously or not, however, should you continue to pursue Zabuza and Haku or ever put this village in trouble again…" Naruto paused.

*Sh!*

He was draped in Nine-tails cloaks with most of his tails extended to the spot where all the Hidden mist trackers stood in.

"I'll not hesitate to put you all in your place!" Naruto declared as he carried Inari and Tsunami on his shoulders.

*Gulp*

All the Hidden Mist rackers in the house gulped at the same time, sweating profusely. He's the real deal they thought upon seeing the Nine tails chakra cloak, brightly glowing around him.

The Mizukage was a perfect Jinchūriki, what was this then? They thought upon seeing Naruto freely control his cloak. They didn't appreciate how lucky they were seeing Naruto handle this without doing anything aggressively like killing.

(Whoosh!) Naruto had vanished from the spot he stood along with the two leaving the Hidden Mist trackers to stare at the floor where their Needles laid and all the men in the house that had been taken down by Naruto. What they also didn't know was that Naruto had marked one of them with the Flying thunder god mark as well before leaving the scene.

*Sh!*

Outside the house, they could hear the crowd approaching the house with anger. The Hidden Mist trackers looked at each other.

"Let's listen to him for now and check on our Mizukage. As it stands, we won't be able to deal with a jinchūriki all by our selves unless we get more reinforcements and I still doubt we'll be able to handle it,"

"If the Mizukage's all right, we'll get instructions if we are to continue to pursue Zabuza or not," The tracker said.

"Mm," The others agreed in Unison.

(Bang!) (Bang!) (Bang!)

The villagers had started to attack the main door of the warehouse which was locked, in fury.

The Hidden Mist tracker ninja then looked at his group.

"It's time to head out,"
