The Hidden Cloud Village

Namaru wakes up and prepares a breakfast using his jutsu to cook, then wakes up the other two. They all eat, pack up, and head outside, where Misako speaks up. "So, what about the house? We can't just leave it here." Namaru, weaves the snake seal, and the house descended back into the earth just as quickly as it came. "I guess that answers my question." Before we all go, we'll need disguises. They all use a Transformation Jutsu to disguise themselves as Samurai, turn, and head for the Hidden Cloud Village.

After a few hours of travel, they finally reach the gates of the Hidden Cloud Village, where they are greeted by some Samurai, "State your purpose," one of them calls out. Namaru speaks up, "We are here on a special mission from Lord Musashi. He needs us to look for Chakra users and bring them in." The Samurai looks them up and down. "Very well. Carry on." He waves his hand in the air and he gates open, allowing them to walk in. As soon as they walk in, Namaru casts a Genjutsu on the village that way they can change back to normal, and everyone will see them as a Samurai. Namaru shuffles his right eye into the Byakugan, and they follow the 10 strongest chakra signals in the village as a team. Although each person gets scared at first, Namaru and the others explain the situation and teach them how to release a Genjutsu cast on themselves.

Before leaving the village, they transform back into their disguises, and release their Genjutsu. After the other users agree, they chain them up and lead them out of the village, where they are stopped by the same guard as before. "Hey! I just contacted Lord Musashi myself, and he never sent anyone to find any Chakra users. Who are you guys, really?" The 3 transform back into themselves, and Namaru speaks up, "Welp. Guess the jig is up. Time to fight." The Samurai calls for the other 19 men guarding the village who all join his side. "You'll need more than luck to get through us." Namaru gives a cocky grin. "Is that so?" He weaves a series of hand seals: Ram, Ox, Boar, Snake, and slams the ground. "Wood Style: Four Pillar Prison Jutsu."

The samurai are instantly trapped in a giant wooden cage, which to their surprise, begins to shrink as Namaru slowly closes his hand into a fist. The Samurai begin to scream in terror. Namaru stops as soon as the cage is barely big enough to hold the 20 Samurai. He then raises his right hand, and the ground beneath the cage turns to sand and begins to give away, causing the cage to sink slowly into the earth. As soon as it is fully submerged in the sand, he clenches his fist. "Sand Burial." The cage is immediately crushed along with all the Samurai inside. The people of the village all flood out of the gate screaming in joy. Their village has been freed. Namaru casts an eternal Genjutsu on the village to make it look guarded for any other Samurai who approach the village.

The villagers thank them, and they turn and leave, followed by far more than 10 people who want to learn how to use chakra. The number grew from 10 to 50. They all quickly head back to the Fire Temple, somehow undetected, where they are greeted by a very shocked Osawa. "How did you find so many people?" Namaru jumps in, "It was originally 10, but there were others who wanted to learn. I tested all of their chakra natures. Surprise, surprise, 30 of them are Lightning Chakra users. 10 have Wind and the last 10 have Fire." Osawa's eyes widen. "All of you, follow me. We will begin all of your training immediately. In the meantime, maybe you guys should head Toward the Mist village."

"Actually, we were going to go back the land of Lightning and search for Matatabi. Chino really wants her back. Plus, since she already knows him, they wouldn't have to bond again. They can just pick up where they left off." Chino agrees with this plan, and Osawa thinks to himself for a moment. "If it would help us against the Samurai, then please do. We could use all the power we can get. The Samurai you have fought so far are nothing compared to Musashi's top men, who are nothing compared to Musashi, himself. Go, find Matatabi, and then we'll go from there." Namaru, Chino and Misako all 3 nod, and leave to return back to the Land of Lightning on their quest to find Matatabi.
