Bab 65: Chapter 65
Last Time:
"Caffrey. Neal Caffrey." Naruto finished with a smile.
Now:
~ With Daiki and Neal ~
Daiki motioned to Naruto's seat as he drank his scotch and poured himself another drink. "Tell me, Mr. Caffrey, how is it that you managed to get your hands on my documents?" Daiki asked, annoyed that someone had so much leverage over him. "Well, our mutual business partner and I had a few good dealings back in Ame until a few months ago." Naruto said, knowing that since Ame was in isolation, they would never be able to verify his story. "Anyway, to make a long story short, she ran off with a lot of my money and left a job undone. Now, I need to get my money back. My associates have already apprehended Black Cat and after a few hours of torture, they managed to break her. That is what brings me here." Naruto finished.
"I am sorry, but I do not have your money. Now, if I can get my documents back.." Daiki said, only to be stopped by Naruto laughing and shaking his head. He took a swig of his scotch and looked to Daiki. "Daiki-san, do I look like an idiot?" Naruto asked. "I know you were going to pay well for the retrieval of this document. I have a proposition for you." Naruto said. "While I do appreciate business deals Caffrey-san, what is to stop me from simply taking the documents from you?" Daiki asked in a dangerous tone. Naruto smirked and turned to Yugito and Samui. "I am sure my bodyguards could easily take care of your grunts. Are you ready to talk business?" Naruto asked.
Daiki smirked and grabbed the bottle of scotch, then got up from his seat. "Disable them, but don't kill them. He will be interrogated, and they will be…fun." Daiki said with a smirk. The two men in the club got up , one had a large chain in his hands and the other a small tanto; both of them had vicious smirks plastered on their faces. Samui sighed and was about to charge into the fight when Naruto stopped her. "Neal-kun, what are you doing?" Yugito asked as she saw him loosening his tie and take off his blazer. "I do hate it when a business deal goes sour.." Naruto mused as he looked at an incoming gangster swinging a chain.
He quickly extended his hand and caught the chain. He pulled it close to him and wrapped it around his arm. "..But if anyone threatens one of you, they're DEAD!" Naruto yelled. He pulled the gangster to him with the chain around his arm, then slammed him into the wall. Another gangster quickly charged him with a small tanto in hand, but Naruto threw his hand holding the chain out. It quickly wrapped around the small sword and with a quick yank, pulled it out of his hand. Naruto sighed as he approached the gangster and backhanded him into a wall, knocking him out cold. He then smirked as he headed to the small office where Daiki had retreated.
~ With Daiki ~
Daiki sighed as he heard the fighting outside of his door stop. 'I knew that idiot couldn't handle my men.' He mused as he poured himself another drink. He leaned back into his chair, only to jump as the door to his office was ripped from its hinges. He turned, only for a hand to slam against his throat and push him against the wall. He opened his eyes to see Neal standing before him, eyes raging with fury. "Want to repeat what you just said about my assistants?" Naruto demanded in an enraged tone, pushing Daiki into the wall with more force. "Now, here's what's going to happen." Naruto growled at Daiki.
" I'm going to walk out of here with me and my assistants. You are going to meet me at this address." Naruto said as he pulled out a small card with an address written on it and dropped it on his desk. "You're going to meet me there in three hours. You bring the money, and I'll bring the document. I get what I'm owed and you get your brother out of jail." Naruto said. He slammed Daiki's head into the wall, making him fall to the floor. He then grabbed the handkerchief from Daiki's blazer and used it to clean his hands. "And clean yourself up, you're a mess." Naruto finished and walked out of his office.
"Let's go." Naruto said to Yugito and Samui as he quickly walked to the exit of the strip club , ignoring the strippers cowering behind the furniture. Samui glanced at Yugito with a worried look, then followed after him.
~ Streets of Kumo – With Naruto and the Girls ~
"Naruto, are you ok?" Samui asked in a slightly worried tone, seeing the boy in a state of mind she hadn't seen before. "I'm fine Samui-chan, I just needed to make him believe me as a gang boss." Naruto said as he winked at her. "But what about what happened with Daiki and his men? Why were you so mad?" Yugito asked, slightly concerned for the blonde. "I'm fine, he just pushed me a bit too far.." Naruto said as he kept walking. "What pushed you do far?" Yugito asked. "Simple. He threatened you girls. He can threaten me all he wants, but as soon as he threatens someone I love, I show no mercy." Naruto replied off handedly, making both girls blush.
"Well, what are you guys waiting for? We still have a lot to do to get ready." Naruto said as he rushed towards the address he gave Daiki. It was an abandoned warehouse in the outskirts of Kumo. Odds are, no one would be dropping by. Both girls were quickly shaken from their stupors as they noticed his retreating form. They quickly followed after him, slightly concerned they didn't know his plan.
~ Abandoned Warehouse ~
Naruto sighed as he looked around the old warehouse. It looked like it was a simple storage area, but it had plenty of potential. He put his hands into a cross symbol and poofed two clones into existence. "You go to the oil refinery and get as many barrels as possible. You, go back to Samui's bedroom and get Cat. We only have a few hours to prepare." Naruto finished with a smile.
~ With Black Cat ~
Cat groaned as she stretched out on the bed. She had been coaxed into staying in this place by that man from last night. 'I never even got his name..' She realized as she stretched out on the small mattress. She got up and slowly walked around the semi empty bedroom, bare as the day she was born. 'I wonder if he really can do what he claims..' She mused as she walked towards the bathroom in the closet, only to be stopped by a knocking sound on the window. She turned to see the man she was thinking about at the window. He was dressed in a sharp suit and looked very professional, making her blush slightly.
"C.. come in, it's open." She stuttered out, barely catching herself. 'Wait, what the hell am I doing? I'm a woman, damn it! Not some fucking fan girl. Just relax and play it cool.' She thought to herself as she leaned back into a wall with a smirk on her face. She crossed her arms under her bare breasts, making them more pronounced with a slight lift. As Naruto stepped into the room, he blushed lightly. Standing before him was Cat in all her glory, pushing her breast upwards and a Cheshire cat grin plastered on her face. "Enjoying the view?" Cat asked, making Naruto shake his head in an attempt to get rid of the thoughts.
"Eh.. Boss needs you to get ready. The plan is going to start pretty soon." The clone said, making Cat raise an eyebrow. "Boss?" She asked. "Yea, me." Naruto said in a shy tone, making her grin grow bigger. "What's the matter big boy? See something you like?" She asked in a sultry tone, making Naruto grin. "Maybe I do.." Naruto replied. "But I have more than enough waiting for me." The clone finished and dispelled, dropping a small business card. Cat picked it up and read the address. 'This place isn't far away..' She mused as she headed to the bathroom to get ready.
~ Time Skip - 2 Hours Later ~'
Daiki looked at the warehouse before him with a barely contained rage. This bastard really expected him to pay up for the document? "Well, he's got another thing coming." He muttered under his breath. He motioned for his men to surround the building. There were already five figures on the roof of the building, all wielding various weapons. "Daiki-sama, we have the place surrounded and the men are ready." A man next to him said. Daiki nodded and motioned to his men. "Let's go!" Daiki said in a commanding tone, making the men follow him into the warehouse.
~ Warehouse ~
Naruto grinned as he turned to the door being kicked opened. He watched as Daiki walked into the warehouse like he was in charge of things. "Daiki-san, you came." Naruto said in a serious tone, slipping into his Neal Caffrey persona. "And I see you brought friends.." He mused as he saw the various men storm into the warehouse. "Didn't you learn anything the last time?" He asked as he turned to Samui and Yugito. "Bring her in." He said in a dismissive tone. Both girls nodded and walked to the back of the warehouse. They came back with Black Cat , leading her as she walked with her hands zip tied.
Her makeup was running and her mascara was splotchy, signifying she had been crying. "As promised, our mutual business partner. Did you bring the money?" Neal asked as he held up a silver briefcase. Daiki motioned to one of his men and was handed a black briefcase. "I have your money. Before we get this done, however, there is one more stipulation I would like to add to the deal." Daiki said as he motioned to Cat. "I want her. She goes with me, you get your money, and I get my document. Now, do we have a deal?" Daiki asked as he put the briefcase down. "No deal. Cat still owes me a lot." Neal said as he placed the silver briefcase on a nearby barrel.
Daiki nodded and handed him the black case, then took his own. Neal quickly checked the case and after making sure it was all there, sealed it to a small rock. "Now, if you don't mind, I'll be taking my money back." Daiki said behind him. Naruto turned to see his men now wielding the once concealed weapons. "Daiki-san, is this really how you want the deal to end? You can still walk away and I'll pretend like this never happened." Neal offered, making Daiki cackle like a mad man. "Neal-san, I believe I am the one holding all the cards here." Daiki affirmed in a smug tone. "Check again." Neal said as he motioned to his briefcase.
He quickly opened the case to find a crude drawing of Black Cat with a speech bubble over reading a few lines. "Goodbye?" Daiki read out loud as he looked around. "And a bon voyage to you too, sir!" Neal said, making Daiki stare in shock at the businessman. He was glowing as he tossed the stone in which the money had been sealed out the window. "Kill Them." Daiki said in a gruff tone and prepared to leave until Black cat uttered the word he feared the most. "Boom." Her form quickly exploded, creating a chain reaction that caused Neal, Yugito, and Samui to explode. They triggered another chain reaction that exploded the nitroglycerin in the barrels, transforming the warehouse into a giant ball of fire.
~ Nearby Rooftop – With the Real Naruto and Black Cat ~
Cat whistled as she saw the warehouse blow into a large ball of fire. "Wow.. What the hell did you do to cause that?" She asked, actually impressed. "Exploding Shadow Clones and a few barrels of Nitroglycerin." Naruto admitted, making Cat look at him with a critical eye. "So you're a ninja?" She asked cautiously. "Technically, I was never here." Naruto replied as he jumped down the building to the field outside of the warehouse. He looked around until he found the stone he had designated his clone to throw. He channeled a bit of chakra into it and unsealed the case of money. "The files are being recovered from his office by my assistants. There is the money as promised." Naruto said.
Cat nodded and picked up the case until she was stopped by Naruto. "Seeing as I helped get you your money, I do have to ask what you need it for." He said. "Well, there is some truth for it. In Kirigakure, Genocide happens every day ever since the Mizukage began the bloodline purges. I am raising money to help build a rebellion to oppose him." She said, making Naruto smile sadly. "I had heard of it, but Kumo was unfortunately a bit preoccupied to lend assistance." Naruto admitted. "Well, I refuse to let my fellow bloodline people suffer. I don't care if it costs me my life, I will take him down!" Cat said in a firm tone, making Naruto smirk.
"Then you're going to need help." He said as he took a small piece of paper and began writing a few bits of information. "This account.. was made as a reservoir should things ever go sour for me. I believe, however, your cause is a lot nobler. It contains one million ryo. I may not be able to supply you an army, but I can at the very least help you." Naruto finished as he handed her the paper. Cat cautiously took it from him. "Why are you helping me? I did try to rob you a few days ago." Cat asked. "Well, I believe if you have the power to help people, you should. I have enough to keep myself comfortable, and you are in need." Naruto said, making her crack a small smile.
'Maybe..just maybe, there are still a few good men in the world.' She thought as he stretched his hand out. "What do you say, Cat?" he asked. "My name is Mei. Mei Terumi." Mei said as she concentrated and coated her hand in lava, making Naruto sweat. "And I could have killed you at any moment." She finished. Naruto grinned and shook her hand. "Naruto. Naruto Romanov, killer of the Golem and Zabuza of Kiri." He said, making her eyes widen. "I could have easily killed you too." He finished, making her smirk. She moved in and gave him a long, passionate kiss, slipping her tongue into his mouth and letting them fight for dominance.
As soon as it started, she pulled away, leaving him a blushing mess. "Until next time, Naruto-kun." She whispered as she left him in the middle of the rocky field. "Til next time, Cat." He called back with a smirk. He then sighed and left to his bunker. 'Could my life get any more complex?' He wondered.
A/N: I hope you guys liked the way I introduced Mei! We still have plenty left to go before the major time skip.
