Minato, Itachi, Keiko, and Shindo are woken up by the rising sun's light.
Itachi: What the-
Keiko: Umm, Aizu. Where are we exactly?
The heroes appear to be in the middle of nowhere, literally sitting on the ocean's surface.
Aizu: "Exactly"? I don't know. All I know is that the river led us to this ocean, east of the Fire Country.
Sharks and other predators of the ocean circle around the squad.
Minato: Whoa! Not cool!
Everyone but Aizu rise to their feet and transition into a defensive position.
Aizu: No need to be so hostile, guys. Sea creatures are quite fond of me. They just enjoy my presence.
Itachi, Minato, Shindo, and Keiko relax themselves, grateful for not having to kill animals.
Minato: Phew! Geez, Aizu. You should really give us a heads-up about all these new abilities of yours.
Aizu: Sorry, big brother. I'm just now getting used to all of these upgrades myself.
Minato: It's cool. Don't sweat it, man.
Itachi: You could use some enhancements yourself, Minato. *smirks*
Minato: Still cocky from finishing those freakazoids, eh? You just watch, bro!
Itachi: Hmph.
After about thirty minutes of traveling east, the climate begins to become dense with mist. Being blind, Shindo feels the space in front of him with his hand.
Shindo: This is some serious mist. Hmmm, we must be near the Hidden Mist Village.
Keiko: I wouldn't doubt it. Maybe we can get some help from Mizukage Chojuro.
All of a sudden, a form emerges from the water twenty feet ahead of the prodigies.
?: You want help from the Mizukage, huh? How about I help you brats to the afterlife?
All five heroes instinctively rise to their feet, preparing for a brawl.
Minato: Who the hell are you?!
?: Hey, kid! This is my country, so I'm the one asking the questions! Though, I might as well tell you all who I am, being that you're about to die and all.
Keiko: Wow, could you be any more cocky?
?: Are you deaf, doll? I said I'm the one asking the questions!
Minato trembles with anger, he doesn't like it very much when a hooligan disrespects Keiko. However, he gives this mysterious man a chance to introduce himself.
?: My name is Ryugetsu Hozuki, son of Mangetsu Hozuki. I am one of the two Swordsmen of the Mist and a damn good one.
Ryugetsu Hozuki is a 6'2, 24-year-old man. He has shoulder-length white hair and shark-like teeth. Ryugetsu wears a navy blue bandana on his head, a sleeveless black shirt, black pants, and the usual shinobi sandals. Suigetsu is the new leader of the Seven Swordsmen of the Mist, although Ryugetsu is the only other member. Chojuro gave up his affiliation to the organization so that he can give the Hidden Mist Village 100% of his dedication.
Itachi: I'm only going to tell you this once, get out of our way.
Ryugetsu: And I'm only going to say this once, you rascals are so dead.
Ryugetsu sprouts four arms in addition to his two original arms. Being a member of the Hozuki clan, he can manipulate and grow limbs by using the water molecules in his body.
Keiko: Just our luck, another monster.
Ryugetsu then takes out a scroll from his pocket and summons six of the seven legendary swords of the Seven Swordsmen of the Mist. Suigetsu currently wields the Executioner Blade. After Killer Bee died, Ryugetsu infiltrated the Hidden Cloud Village to retrieve Samehada, which explains why he's in possession of it.
Ryugetsu wields a sword in each of his six hands. He then sprouts two more arms just to weave the hand signs to perform Hidden Mist Jutsu. The already dense mist becomes even thicker, which makes the heroes lose sight of their foe. They position themselves in a defensive, five-point star formation. Ryugetsu speaks from somewhere in the mist.
Ryugetsu: I'm the best silent killer ever, only second to this dead Zabuza Momochi guy. It sucks to be you five right now.
Minato: Man, I can't wait to shut this guy up!
Keiko: Well, how are you gonna do that if you can't see him?
Minato: You've got a point there. I could use my Wind Release: Rotation to disperse the mist, but I don't want to harm any innocent animals, being that we're on an ocean and all. Looks like I won't be MVP this time either..
Itachi: Lucky for you, I can't sense this guy or see him with my sharingan. This mist is chakra-enhanced. So, I won't be able to take the glory again. *chuckles in a cocky way*
Keiko: *rolls eyes* You two are unbelievable.
Shindo: I've got this, no one can be hidden from my sensory abilities. Aizu, Itachi. A combination attack from you two will end this guy within seconds. He's at my 5 o' clock, do it.
All the prodigies are very bonded with each other and are all incredibly intelligent, so most of the time they know what each other are thinking in battle.
Keiko coats herself, Minato, and Shindo in her Crystal Release: Crystal Armor—a thing she didn't know she could do until now. The weight of the armor is almost enough to sink them into the ocean, but they manage to stay on the surface. Aizu uses Lightning Release: Electric Current to electrocute the mist, shocking all those in it whom are unprotected. The electricity does no harm to Itachi, who has a lightning affinity. The current hits Ryugetsu, which renders him immobile and turns him into a jelly-like substance, being a Hozuki and all. Though he still has a tight grip on his swords.
Itachi: My lasers will hit you dead-on, even in this mist. Storm Release: Laser Circus!
A blue energy charges from Itachi's fingertips and continues to increase in size.
Ryugetsu: *Speaks to himself* Shit! Sorry uncle Suigetsu, I've served you the best I could.
Itachi cancels his technique.
Itachi: Wait, did you say Suigetsu is your uncle?..
Ryugetsu cancels his Hidden Mist Jutsu and Aizu releases him from the electric currents.
Ryugetsu: Yeah...what's it to you?
Itachi: He was a friend of my mom's, which makes you a friend of mine.
Ryugetsu: What the hell? I thought you were on your way to that punk-ass Mizukage to be assigned a mission to capture my uncle. You see, Suigetsu's done some regrettable things in the past to put him on the "most wanted" list. He's not that man anymore, so I won't let anyone screw with him.
Itachi: He's lucky to have a nephew like you and we'll be lucky to have a subordinate like you to assist us in our mission.
Ryugetsu: Thanks but no thanks, kid. Suigetsu and I are recreating the Seven Swordsmen of the Mist's reputation, we're changing it for the better. We take care of people here who are in poverty and what not. The Mizukage isn't doing such a great job, so a lot of these people depend on me. I'd like to help you, but I can't. The best I can do is wish you luck.
Itachi: But, your uncle might be in danger.
Ryugetsu: Ha! Suigetsu can wipe the floor with me and I'm no weakling.
Minato: *whispers* Could've fooled me.
Ryugetsu: I heard that, you blank-eyes brat! Anyway, like I was saying. Suigetsu can handle whatever comes his way, especially with Jugo by his side.
Itachi: (No, he's wrong. If Hokage Konohamaru requested dad and Kakashi for a mission, then whoever is out there must be strong beyond my imagination. Though, this guy doesn't need to know that. My brothers, Keiko, and I will handle the threat.) Alright, I understand. One day I will make sure that no one lives in poverty anymore, so you can go on about your life. You have a rough exterior, but I can tell that you're a good guy. It's nice to have met you, Ryugetsu Hozuki. See you around.

Author's Note
No more copy-and-pasting! I will finally freshly write the chapters, which means they're going to be amazing because I'm a much better writer than I was when I wrote chapters 1-12.
