Great Naruto Bridge.

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

In Part II, Sasuke Uchiha, a former member of Team 7, brings Suigetsu to the Land of Waves to retrieve Zabuza's Decapitating Carving Knife from his grave. When Sasuke saw the bridge, he saw that it was named after Naruto, he briefly smiled thinking about the past and grunted then continued to the grave site.
