"What do you mean you know where the witch doctor is?" Naruto asked he was skeptical of this man not just from his appearance but due to the fact it was so convenient that someone would come out now and tell him the location for the person he was looking for.

"I told you I heard you over talking about the witch doctor in there, trust me he's a better healer than any of those hacks in there and he doesn't even charge he just asks that you spread the word of him" The man responded and Naruto locked onto the man's gaze for a few seconds before nodding.

"Very well what's your name?" Naruto questioned and the man smiled.

"Kerio..." The now Kerio answered and beckoned Naruto to follow him and Naruto did but always made sure to keep a few steps behind him.

"So...does the witch doctor live within the town?" Naruto asked and the man turned slightly and shook his head.

"Not quite...just on the outskirts right next to the sea, he's been forced out of this town by those monsters in there..." Kerio answered and Naruto nodded it made sense those people back in that building reeked of scum.

"I see...and what's their deal?" Naruto wondered at how people like that where so adored by the town's folk.

"No idea...I heard it's something to do with recruitment or something that's all anyone knows really" Naruto nodded at Kerio's explanation when it came to shady matters most people had no idea what was really going on.

"It's getting late..." Naruto said to himself as he noticed the sky beginning to darken.

With Izumi

Izumi sighed as she sat down on the nearest bench to her the straw hat she wore to cover her identity secured so her face was concealed she had been eavesdropping for the best part of an hour to try hear anything about a witch doctor but all she had been able to get was something about an upcoming marriage and something to do with a recruitment programme other than that she had not been able to get anything as people had begun to look at her funnily so to not compromise her position she moved away.

Now sitting on the bench Izumi watched as young couples walked past and parents with their children, she couldn't help but remember slightly how she had walked around similarly with her mother when she had been back in Konoha.

Flashback

"Kaa-san...there's a weird person staring at us from behind that tree" A young four year old Izumi said she was wearing a plain blue top and black shorts, her hair was significantly shorter as well just reaching her neck and her face was a lot rounder and her eyes seemed a lot brighter due to her childish perspective.

Mikoto wore a blue dress with what looked to be a cream colored apron on and she stared down at her daughter and raised an eyebrow before she stared to where her daughter was pointing. Immediately Mikoto sweat dropped as threads of red hair stuck completely out from behind a tree.

Sighing Mikoto looked forward again and moved one of the bangs from in front of her eyes to the Uchiha clan she was a beauty only fitting for the head of the Uchiha clan.

"Just keep walking...it's a friend of mine" Mikoto stated and Izumi nodded not really understanding however as the two got to the tree she made sure to keep her eye on the person behind it.
