“I knew it, this gonna take forever…” cursed a white hair youth who had been grumpy for a long time. This youth was none other than Suigetsu, and the reason he was so grumpy was becuase of a certain trap, he was teleported half a continent away from where they were originally planned to go.
Haku, after paying his respects to Zabuza, started to travel with Suigetsu, going to the land of Earth.
“This is all becuase of you, troublesome woman…” Suigetsu chided, not happy about travelling on food and crossed the entire land of Fire which was the biggest country outside the land of Wind.
“I’m not a woman,” Haku long gave up on trying to shut that mouth, it was almost impossible, but at least he could correct the boy to address him right.
“Oh, I certainly don’t doubt that…” Suigetsu replied while narrowing his eyes, staring at Haku’s chest which was even flatter than his own.
Suddenly tick mark formed on Haku’s head, he knew that an insult like this shouldn’t mean anything to him, a boy.
But that smug smile on Suigetsu’s face just riled him up. “Yo...You” Haku shuttered as he struggled to retort against Suigetsu. He wasn’t the kind who swore at others.
“Hmph, I better give this sword to Shika, he is a thousand times better than you…” Not knowing how to retort, or even whether he should consider what Suigetsu was implying, it proves him as a man, right?
So, he ended up pulling out his trump card, Kobikiribocho. And directly compared him with Shika.
In the entire organization, there were only three sword users, Shika, Suigetsu and Sasuke.
Sasuke didn’t use swords that much, he mainly learned to fight against Shika in close combat, so in reality, it was only Suigetsu and Shika.
Of course, comparing both swordsmanship will irk Suigetsu. Why? Becuase indeed Shika was better.
And Suigetsu was really touchy about swordsmanship, being a fan of Seven swordsman of the Mist.
As expected, this immediately riled up Suigetsu, and the white hair boy started throwing insults.
Not planning on backing off, Haku too started muttering, though he was more restrained, throwing insults which could primarily be categorised as elemental school level at best.
This wasn’t new, these two had this heated relationship ever since the start. Shika only put them together because he knew it was closer to a rival kind of situation. If they couldn’t work together, then Shika wouldn’t have put them together in a team.
“Flat chest….”
“Small Dick…”
“You don’t know that.”
“I do, Jugo told me.”
‘Damn that orange hair.’
*Smirk.
“Still, you are flat chest.”
*Tick Mark
Even though there is no reason for him to get mad about this particular insult.
And so, the insult war kept on going until Haku suddenly saw something which he wasn’t expecting.
“That…”
“Huh, finally ready to believe me… are you willing to take back your words now’s, bow before the might Suigetsu Sama…” Suigetsu lowered his pants, completely shameless and started swinging his cobra around.
Another tick mark formed on Haku’s forehead.
He might not be a girl but still, he found this shameless guy completely unacceptable.
*Smash…
A big bump forms on Suigetsu’s head, knocking him out by the sudden attack by Haku. Suigetsu was about to retort but once again after seeing the beautiful face of Haku, he held himself back.
“Real man don’t hit Woman…” Suigetsu told to himself.
Suddenly seeing Suigetsu acting strange, again had an urge to hit him rose inside Haku. But he refrained himself and once again pointed at what he saw.
“Look over there you idiot.” He said, frustration leaking out of his voice…
‘Why can’t I partner with someone like Shika or Karin ?’
“That…” When Suigetsu saw who Haku was pointing at, his earlier joking tone was all gone.
Before what they were looking at was the target of their Organization.
“Who are they, is that Itachi which Sasuke was talking about ?” Suigetsu asked hurriedly.
Currently, they were close to a town in the southern part of the land of fire. They weren’t expecting to meet Akatsuki members here in the land of fire.
“No, did you not listen to anything Shika said ?” Haku shook his head, looking at Suigetsu like he was an idiot.
“Just tell me already,” Suigetsu once again was annoyed, he indeed wasn’t listening to Shika when he was explaining the members of Akatsuki and their powers.
“Sigh, one with red hair is Sasori of the Red Sand, from Hidden Sand village and the other is Deidara from Hidden Stone…”
“What do we do now?” Suigetsu asked with confusion in his tone. Honestly, he didn’t want to fight those dangerous Akatsuki.
So, the movement he saw them, he planned to call for help from Shika. But he can’t make it obvious, not in front of Haku.
He has his own pride, especially in front of his annoying girl.
“If I’m not wrong then Deidara and Sasori as Shika told us would soon target the One Tail in Kazekage.
Sasuke and Jugo are assigned to stop them, but with these two here, is the plan changed or Shika’s intel was wrong ?” Haku pondered to himself, if that was the case then he had to inform Shika about this change.
Of course, that all won’t be needed if both of them can take those two Akatsuki down right here, but unlike Kimimaro and Guren, Haku knew he and Suigetsu were not ready to take on Akatsuki members right now.
Though hunting down the Akatsuki was always their goal but Shika was always realistic in this regards, Miracle can’t take place in just one year, they have gotten stronger but not strong enough to fight those S-rank missing nins of Akatsuki.
People like Sasuke, Shika, Guren and Kimimaro are different, they were already strong.
“Hey, why you stop talking, say something, you are not planning on attacking those Akatsuki, are you ?” Unknown to Haku, Suigetsu was sweating bullets the more Haku pondered about their next action.
“I-I’m not sure, we can’t beat them, at best we can fight them to a stalemate which would ultimately lead to them escaping alive, that even worse outcome than just letting them go like we never saw him.
In case we attack them and they escape, the entire Akatsuki organization then will be on alert, we can’t let go of our element of surprise just yet.” Haku muttered to himself and finally came to the conclusion that he wouldn’t be taking action directly.
They needed help.
Finally, with a sigh on his face, he took out a familiar-looking scroll which upon seeing Suigetsu sighed like he dodged a death flag. This wasn’t that wrong technically since this scroll means that Haku will be asking for Shika’s help to fight against those Akatsuki members.
“Change of plans, we are no longer going towards the Land of Earth, now we’ll trail those two Akatsuki members until a response from the headquarters doesn’t come,” Haku said and opened the scroll, looking at the Fuinjutsu array inside he didn’t hesitate and quickly pour his chakra inside the scroll.
“Hope Karin quickly contacts Shika and he comes here…” Haku thought he quickly started to get out of his Yuguure black uniform, confusing Suigetsu.
“Oi oI… what are you doing. We are in public, you shameless girl….”
*Smash…
Another tick mark formed on Haku’s forehead, as he smashed that running mouth of Suigetsu with all his might.
“Idiot, what are you thinking, change quickly, if we are trailing them wearing this uniform will be suspicious. Wear some normal clothes.
And who are you calling a girl…

[Land Of Snow-Yuguure Headquaters]
A portal opened and from inside came two individuals. It was one man with haggard-looking face, a dark circle under his eyes and more than the usual lazy look on his face.
This was Shika and beside him was the beautiful dark skin skinny girl, with blue hair. This was Fuu who finally Shika was able to convince to with along with him, well it was actually Chomei who he had to convince, took him a long time and that is why he was looking this haggard.
As for Fuu, the ‘power of friendship’ was enough to lure the girl to the dark side.
‘Now I know why war happens, if negotiation between countries looks anything like what I went through in the last few hours, I would choose war too…’ Gambling Shika took Fuu inside the Yuguure headquarters.
It wasn’t anything fancy but still a cosy and practical place.
“Welcome, this is your headquarters. You will be staying here until we don’t solve Akatsuki's problem…” Shika said with a lack of enthusiasm on his part, looking around to find Karin so that he could hand Fuu over to her and get a good sleep.
Unfortunately for him, he didn’t find Karin anywhere…
“Where is she ?”
His face can’t help but turn dark seeing how that girl most likely was outside shopping again.
‘I have to cut her budget.’ Shika thought a dangerous glare was appearing on his eyes.
But that was when he saw something, on a table multiple scrolls were lying open and one of them was turned completely dark.
“This, shit…”
