The Shinobi With The Straw Hat

"It should be good right now." Lord Sara removed his hands from Kentaro's body. He had stopped the bleeding, unfortunately, the wounds were just to great to completely heal without scarring.     

Kentaro slowly stood up, he looked down on his body. There were great cuts who were still open, the only thing that stopped was the bleeding.     

Lord Sara took bandages out of his kimono and started covering them on all of Kentaro's upper body including the arms and his head, only letting his face uncovered.     

"Lord Sara, why are you bandaging me if the wounds are still open." what Lord Sara did didn't seem logical to Kentaro.     

"Lord Kentaro, those bandages are special. Those are the bandages of life, it's a treasure passed down in the Sara clan. It has the ability to heal and close great and vicious wounds."     

Everything seemed more logical now, Kentaro walked towards his chair and sat down. The clan leaders were fixating him.     

"What are you guys looking at? Sit down, you surely want to hear about what I said earlier." Kentaro took a cup and poured tea for himself.     

The clan leaders sat down and waited for Kentaro to pour them tea, which he didn't.     

"Where is Lord Kedoin? His men, I didn't see them near the training area nor did I see them in the village."     

Lord Kedoin had not familiarized himself with the other clan leaders and his men were sort of introverts or so it seemed.     

Lord Ichika had seen him not long ago, he was following a specific man like a dog.     

"Lord Kentaro, I have seen Lord Kedoin following a man like a dog, it would seem as if he was his servant." Kentaro found it weird.     

"What does the man that you're talking about look like?" If he could get this information, Kentaro could talk with this man.     

"This man is dressed in an all black kimono, he has a bandage over his right eye, he is tall and of robust stature. What I noticed was that his left sleeve was pushed in all the senses with the wind." that's all what Lord Ichika could think of.     

'What sort of game is Habiki playing right now, now is not the time!' Kentaro was taken over by rage, the cup in his hand broke in pieces.     

Kentaro was enraged because Habiki was taking Lord Kedoin away from him. Kentaro needed all the clan leaders to be present and to work together.     

And to top it all off, the men of the Kedoin clan did not participate in the village's chores or on what had to be done.     

"I will take care of this individual myself. Let's talk about the tailed beasts now." the clan leaders nodded.     

"Like I said before, we will shelter them in the land of earth. I already have sealed two tailed beasts, but I'm gonna set them free. the mountains of the north have become the Four-tailed beast's home. The two others will also be attributed a home somewhere."     

"Will there be more tailed beasts than those three? Why do you want to shelter them?" Lord Haru wanted to make sure that he understood everything.     

"Yes, there will be more of them coming. I want to protect them from the fate that awaits them. It will both be beneficial for them and for us, the tailed beasts will be grateful for our actions. Let's be realistic for a second, do you really think that the others will dare to attack us when we have the tailed beasts on our side. The village Hidden In The Stones will be the mightiest shinobi village!" Kentaro stood up from the chair in pain.     

"But we will never exploit their powers, DO NEVER forget that." the limping Kentaro left his office.     

The clan leaders had cleary understood the message. Daitan decided to make this information public to the people.     

At this point, Kentaro didn't care too much. It would only be good if the people learnt to live with the tailed beasts from early on.     

Kentaro left the building, his face had a furious expression to it. He looked left and right angrily.     

'It's time to pay a visit to Habiki, I have endured his petulant attitude enough!' Kentaro flew towards Habiki's chakra.     

He was one kilometer away from the village and he was not alone. There were fifty more chakras together with him.     

Kentaro had many questions in his mind. Why did Habiki choose the Kedoin clan? Why is Habiki planning to do?.....     

Finally, Kentaro flew high above the air and they visibly not spotted him yet. Habiki was sitting on a rock while the Kedoin were sitting on the ground.     

He was talking them, he was moving his arms and had many emotions on his face. From rage to happiness to determination.     

In the past, Kentaro felt bad for Habiki and all what had happened because of his own actions.     

Habiki had insulted him, he spat on his goodwill. He was not grateful for his new eye, Kentaro had given him a complete new vision and ocular powers.     

Kentaro didn't take all of this to heart. But if Habiki was trying to get in between what he was trying to achieve....     

'I won't let Habiki become a nuisance for the creation of The Village Hidden In The Stone!'     

Kentaro slowly flew down, the fifty kedoin quickly spotted him. They stood up and looked at Kentaro warily.     

Habiki did not turn around to look, he was very calm and collected. Kentaro landed on the ground and looked at the Shinobi who were present.     

"All of you, return to the village!" the fifty Kedoin did not move, they looked at Kentaro defiantly.     

"You can't give orders to my men, Kentaro. Anyways, it is good that you have come. We have much to discuss about."     

Habiki stood up, he turn around while still being on the rock. Kentaro could not recognize his cousin, his aura, his everything, Habiki looked like a whole different person.     

"Indeed, Habiki. We do have much to discuss about."
