CHAPTER 017 - Preparations for Battle

     Kakashi sensed something was wrong. Did he miss something? Naruto asked what was wrong. Kakashi explained that Hunter-nins usually dispose of the bodies right there where they killed them. So then, how did that masked boy dispose of Zabuza's body, and why did he move it? Kakashi explained that if he needed proof of his work, he could have just taken the head, and the weapon he used. Sasuke immediately realized what Kakashi was already thinking. Zabuza lives!

    Everybody is shocked. Naruto asked about Kakashi kneeling down to check if Zabuza was really dead. Kakashi explains it was most likely a momentary death. The needle
weapon used to pierce Zabuza's neck, has a low probability of kill the opponent without hitting a vital organ. Doctors even use it for acupunture therapy. Also, Hunter-nins know the body very well, so this momentary death was a simple task for that kid. First he used a weapon with little probability to kill, and second he carried the body away, these to things indicate that he was really trying to save Zabuza. Tazuna is skeptical of all this, and comments that Hunter-nins are suppose to kill Missing-nins like Zabuza.

    Kakashi declares that with this much suspicion, they must prepare before its too late. This is a shinobi rule. He explains that even if 
Zabuza is dead, there is no assurance that Gatou hasn't hired an even more powerful ninja. Kakashi notices that Naruto is actually excited that Zabuza might be alive. Sakura asks how Kakashi will prepare when he can barely move. He tells them that they will receive training. Sakura doubts that a little training will help if he struggled even with his sharingan. Kakashi tells her they are the reason he is still alive, and that they are growing rapidly, especially Naruto. Sakura acknowledges this too.

    Sakura asks if its safe to train since Zabuza is still out there and alive. Kakashi explains that after a momentary death situation a person is incapable of moving for quite some time. So they will train until then. A small little kid wearing a hat appears out of nowhere. He admits their plans sound like no fun. Tazuna asks the newly revealed Tanari where he has been. He calls Tazuna grandpa, and gives him a hug. Inari's mother tells him to say hello to the leaf ninja, for they are the ones who protected his grandfather.

    All he says is that they will die. This angers Naruto. Inari tells them there is no way they can win against Gatou. Naruto starts to get pissed off until Sakura refrains him. Naruto tries to reassure Inari that he has nothing to fear, because he is a superhero that will one day become hokage.
Inari dismisses this claim immediately. Inari tells them to leave, then goes to watch the ocean from his room.

    Naruto follows Inari to his room, but when he gets to the door, he hears crying from the inside. Inari is inside staring at a picture of some man with a rope tied around his head. Inari bursts into tears, calling this man his father. Naruto leaves from Inari's door. 

    In the forest Kakashi tells the team they will now start the training. But before that he wants to give them a little lesson on the shinobi ability of chakra. Naruto asks what chakra is. He tells Kakashi he use to sleep during any hard lesson in class. Kakashi admits this is bad. He allows Sakura to give Naruto the lesson. She tells him chakra is the energy needed when performing jutsu. There are two parts, the body which is composed of the billions of cells in the body, and the spiritual energy gained through training and experience. Jutsu is possible by combining these two parts, and then bringing them out with different hand seals.

    Naruto admits he doesn't understand, but asks if that is something you can just learn with your body. Sasuke says Naruto is right, they can already use jutsu. But Kakashi tells them they are not using chakra properly. He tells them that based on the type of jutsu they use, the amount of chakra used will be different. Even if they can release a high amount of chakra, if they don't control it properly, the jutsu will ultimately be weak, or completely ineffective. This will in turn not allow them to fight for very long. They ask how they can fix this, and he tells them by climbing a tree.
