Chapter 180 The Bridge is Completed
"Naruto, Sasuke, Karin, Hinata, the bridge is almost finished!"
Because the Gato Group was wiped out by Naruto, the remaining members immediately fled with Gato's wealth, but were stopped by shadow clones sent out by Kakashi.
Kakashi divided Gato's wealth into two parts: one part was given to the people of the Land of Waves so that they would have initial capital to develop, and the other part was put into his own pocket.
Kakashi: What are you looking at? This is called unexpected income, and it's legal.
Huh? You're asking why accidents are legal?
Ahem, as the former captain of the Anbu, I, Kakashi Hatake, think your thinking isn't quite right.
I suggest you be sent to the current Root organization for some "re-education."
Besides, Kakashi treats Team 7 to a nice meal every now and then, which costs a lot of money.
What's wrong with him taking a small cut?
There are no problems.
"Wow, is it finally going to be finished?"
Naruto put down the playing cards in his hand, looked up at Inako, whose face was filled with excitement and joy, and stretched.
"Yes, yes, come and see, everyone is waiting for you."
Inari extended an invitation, after all, as a key factor in the successful construction of the bridge, the protection of Naruto and the others was indispensable.
Let's all go together.
Naruto called out to the members of Team 7 and said...
"Uh-huh."
"Okay, that works too."
"Hey bro, what about those two?"
Karin looked at the two bandaged figures lying on the bed and asked a question.
Although the chances are slim, what if they managed to pull themselves out using their still-movable little toes?
"It's alright, I'll just leave a few clones."
Before Zabuza could say anything, Naruto had already formed hand seals, and two pieces of wood emerged from his body, transforming into Naruto's appearance.
"Have a drink."
Zabuza's lips twitched, then he decisively closed his eyes and chose to go to sleep.
He had fractures all over his body, and this pervert had left two wooden clones next to him.
The chance of successfully escaping is less than one percent.
I should probably just wash up and go to bed early.
No, I can't even take a shower these days.
"Yes, very good, very thoughtful."
Kakashi praised Karin for her attentiveness and Naruto for his quick action, then led Team 7 and followed Inari toward the bridge.
Next to the cabin, Tazuna was talking to other men with a smile, but his eyes lit up when he saw Naruto and the others.
"Ahem, our heroes have arrived."
Tazuna cleared his throat and then spoke.
"oh!!!"
"Wuhu whoosh whoosh!"
"Hahahaha!"
The surrounding crowd erupted in cheers.
At Tazuna's invitation, Naruto and the others cut the ribbons symbolizing the completion of the bridge, which Tazuna and the others named the Wooden Dummy Bridge.
The reason is to commemorate the giant wooden figure that protected them.
Naruto was very happy about this, and even erected a wooden statue next to the bridge.
This can be seen as a form of protection for the Land of Waves, since the existence of the wooden specimen symbolizes that the bridge is under Naruto Uzumaki's protection.
Anyone who wants to cause trouble here in the future should think twice before deciding whether they are qualified.
The mission is complete, so Naruto and the others have no reason to stay. Therefore, it's time to say goodbye.
"Won't you stay another day?"
Tsunami felt that she hadn't properly entertained them yet.
Although she had already hosted a banquet, she still felt that she hadn't done a good job.
"No, we have to go back and carry out other missions."
Naruto scratched his head and said to Tsunami.
"Tsunami, they're going home too."
Tazuna patted Tsunami on the shoulder, then made way for Ina.
"Boss!"
As Inari looked at Naruto, who had already slung his bag over his shoulder, tears of reluctance welled up in his eyes.
However, he wiped away his tears and smiled at Naruto.
"I will learn from the leader and become a hero too!"
Looking at Inari's face, Naruto smiled and gave him a thumbs up.
"Okay! Remember to come find me when you become a hero."
Everything was so beautiful, even the two white-bandaged figures placed on Unit-05... just kidding, at least Zabuza wasn't moved by the atmosphere.
"Hey, Naruto, what's this?"
Zabuza, pressed against Unit-05's back, could sense the massive amount of chakra inside Unit-05 through the wood.
"Oh, this is my mount, you can call it Unit 5."
If he were to chase me on that thing, I'm afraid I'd have no chance of escaping.
"Hey, Zabuza-san, why are you collecting the broken blades?"
Naruto, holding the blades and hilts Zabuza had asked him to collect, asked with some curiosity.
Do you know about the Seven Ninja Swords of Kirigakure?
Naruto shook his head, but Kakashi explained for him: "The Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist Village each have a unique ninja sword with different abilities."
"And as far as I know, the Executioner's Blade's ability... is to regenerate itself by absorbing blood."
After Kakashi finished speaking, he looked at Zabuza lying on Unit-05.
"As expected of Konoha's Blood-Eyed White Blade, even the secluded Kirigakure knows quite a bit."
Zabuza confirmed Kakashi's explanation, and then spoke to Naruto.
"The key to the Executioner's Blade lies in its hilt. Its blade can absorb blood and transfer it to the hilt.
The hilt then uses the blood, substances in the air, and chakra to form a new blade."
Naruto looked curiously at the hilt of the sword in his hand. Was it really that magical?
"This sword is now yours. Whether you use it yourself or return it to Kirigakure is up to you."
Zabuza then handed over the Executioner's Blade, which had accompanied him for most of his career, to Naruto.
After all, if they followed me, the best outcome would be for them to be taken back by Kirigakure.
You should know that I put in a lot of effort back then to overcome the limitations of Kirigakure on the Executioner's Blade.
Tsk, this kid got off easy.
Zabuza saw Naruto wielding his greatsword with great skill and realized his immense potential, which sparked his interest.
When Naruto becomes famous in the future, and people ask him what weapon he uses, he can say that it's the Executioner's Blade, which won't be a waste of his sword.
"Huh? Really?"
Naruto gripped the hilt of the sword, examining it curiously, wondering why it could grow back by sucking blood.
"Naruto, you should keep it, otherwise you'll still have to hand it over to the village later."
Kakashi said to Naruto that, although the Executioner's Blade is a relatively important factor in establishing diplomatic relations.
However, if Zabuza is telling the truth, then it's a different story.
"Well, then I'll reluctantly accept it."
Naruto clapped his hands and accepted the greatsword under Zabuza's irritating gaze.
