Great Naruto Bridge

The Great Naruto Bridge ( なると大橋 , Naruto Ōhashi ) is a long and wide bridge that was built and completed in Prologue — Land of Waves by Tazuna . He built the bridge to connect the Land of Waves to the Land of Fire , thus freeing his country from Gatō 's trade monopoly. After Team 7 helped him complete the bridge by fending off Gatō's assassins, he named the bridge after Naruto Uzumaki for he had played a major part of the reason that the bridge was completed.
