Chapitre 3: The nanny
Kumogakure buzzed with the energy of its advanced technology, set amidst towering peaks and interconnected mountains.
It was a marvel of engineering; the village is the most advanced in terms of technology among all villages in Naruto world.
Aki now stood at the center of the training grounds accompanied by the 4th Raikage. Today was the day his training as a ninja would begin. But before that…
"Dad! Look at this" Aki Raiden smiled teasingly at A and ran forward.
Aki turned around to see As face as he infused his chakra to his eyes turning them white with his veins popping around his eyes.
He did NOT shout "Byakugan" this time, as if unaware of its name.
His vision cleared up and chakra networks of all around were now visible to him once more covering the entire village, except the facilities guarded by special material a safeguard against Konoha ninjas.
"This…" A and Killer B were both caught off guard
"Byakugan" both shouted at the same time.
"Yo, yo, yo, little bro
your eyes are a treasure, no doubt," Killer Bee joined right in the excitement.
"Aki, how far can you see?" A inquired planning to train his adopted but loved child to the best of his abilities.
Aki suddenly felt a chill, maybe his life was about to turn into a living hell. He had revealed these eyes as he trusted his uncles and knew Cloud Village needed Byakugan for something never revealed in cannon.
"Alright, Aki let's begin your training" A's expression turned stern "Although Byakugan is powerful it's not an instant power boost for a ninja, your skill decides its usefulness, unlike some other ocular techniques."
"For the first step, we will be building your foundation, even though you have chakra now you won't be able to learn a single jutsu without your body being able to keep up"
'Bullshit! These muscleheads just don't wanna teach me jutsu'
"Let's run a few laps around the arena," A suggested enthusiastically.
Just then, Haruka, the Raikage's assistant and Aki's caretaker, arrived. She had a calm, yet authoritative presence, and a knowing smile as she observed the scene.
"Raikage-sama," Haruka greeted, catching A's attention. She exchanged a few words with him, her tone professional and respectful.
A nodded and then turned to Aki. "I have to attend to some matters. Haruka will continue your training. Listen to her, she's excellent at what she does."
Killer B, ever the supportive uncle, gave Aki a thumbs-up. "Yo, little bro, keep it up! I'll catch you later."
"So, what jutsu you wanna learn?" Haruka took out some scrolls from who knows where and asked Aki with a teasing smile.
"Hell yeah!" Aki exclaimed totally not expecting jutsu training. Taking in a deep breath Aki calmed himself down he shouted.
"Shadow clone jutsu"
"Cute!" Haruka exclaimed then continued looking through her scrolls, "Found it, here ya go"
Aki reached out for the scroll but Haruka pulled her hand back and started playing with the scroll.
Making Aki reach for the scroll again and again as he was about to get it she ran and Aki followed. She took him around the laps a few times and stopped only when Aki stopped moving angrily.
"Here" Haruka threw a scroll to Aki.
"Bad Auntie" Aki pouted and then started reading the scroll. Memorizing the instructions he gave it a try.
Bzzzt
A deformed Aki appeared beside him. He understood the technique but his chakra moved like a flood totally out of his control.
"HAHAHAHAHA…" Haruka couldn't stop laughing. "So, our little genius can't even make a Shadow clone." She put her hands on her stomach barely holding in her laughter. "This is too funny."
"I'll DO IT" Aki shouted and tried again… earlier deformed abomination was likely the beginner's luck, this time only smoke formed and dissipated.
"Shadow clone jutsu… Shadow clone jutsu… Shadow clone jutsu" He kept trying and only one out of a hundred did form those abominations.
The problem wasn't that he couldn't understand it but his enormous chakra kept messing things up. He even activated Byakugan to see the reason and better control the chakra.
But this flood did not have a dam blocking and controlling the flow, it ruined the entire city… or in this case his technique.
His trash chakra control shattered his fantasies… imagining a thousand show clones each with a lightning cloak and hundreds of Rasengans shooting across the battlefield… absolutely crushing everyone.
Haruka was having the time of her life watching the little guy performing the technique again and again. The boy would sometimes stop, pout, frown, and even activate Byakugan.
In the middle of his frustration, Aki started walking towards Haruka and asked with a serious expression, "Auntie, teach me how to control chakra!"
"Alright, follow me" Haruka turned around and walked towards the edge of the mountain, as Aki caught up, she picked him up and jumped down the mountain all the way till she landed standing over water.
"AAAHHHHHH" Aki screamed, the wind whipping around them as they plummeted downwards. His heart pounded in his chest; and memories of a similar fall flashing through his mind.
-- slight flashback --
It was like reliving that terrifying memory when Anna made her sudden confession. He fell from a height even greater far above the clouds.
The rush of air, the feeling of helplessness, it all came back to him in a flood of fear and confusion.
-- slight flashback end --
The closer they got to the ground, the higher the fear he was feeling and at a certain moment he lost consciousness.
Haruka transitioned from their prior freefall to running along the steep mountain, her body angled parallel to the water below. She continued her descent until she smoothly shifted from running along the mountainside to skimming over the water's surface with ease.
As she descended, the towering peaks of the Hidden Cloud Village gave way to the vast expanse of the ocean, which stretched out endlessly below. The mountains seemed to rise directly from the depths of the sea, with no land in sight—only the deep waters far below.
After running for a while, Haruka came to a stop near the point where the mountain met the ocean. It was then that she noticed Aki was unconscious.
"Oh, the fall was too much for the little boy" She had thought living with Raikage he wouldn't have a fear of heights even at his tender age but it seemed she was wrong very very wrong.
This was awkward she would have to climb back up and find a medical ninja. So off she went.
After reaching the peak she called over a random medical ninja to check up on Aki as C was probably still in a meeting with 4th Raikage.
"He's fine just needs to rest" This was her 2nd time having to hear this phrase, after A brought Aki home a few days ago.
After 3 hours Aki regained consciousness, totally expecting another encounter with GOD but he was greeted with a familiar arena with Haruka looking after him.
"How are you feeling kid?" Haruka asked with a tinge of concern.
"I'm fine auntie" Aki replied "But you should have given me a heads-up."
Sigh,
Haruka let out a breath she didn't know she was holding and got back to her playful
"If I did how would I find out little Aki is afraid of heights" Haruka said with a teasing smile.
"I am afraid of heights happy now? What's next?" Aki stated undisturbed he had been successfully distracted from the thoughts he had a while ago.
"Let's go down again," Haruka said.
Aki turned to look at the doctor with pleading eyes so he may stop the demon lord.
"That's what she said" medical nin flickered away after saying these words.
Aki resigned to his fate… "ok." at least this time he knew they would jump.
Haruka picked him up again, told him to relax, reassuring him, and then they jumped.
Once they reached the water's surface, "The area of 100 meters around us is kind of a safe zone." After saying so she put him on the water and let him walk.
so cool! he can walk on water without using his own chakra!!
"You can treat this area as solid ground, I'm reinforcing water tension with chakra"
Aki was surprised at this point as far as he knew from what he watched and read no one in Konoha was at this level of chakra control...
A/N: you wish, forgot Rasengan so soon?
This is totally a domain he wanted to shout… DOMAIN EXPANSION WATER TENSION.
What Aki didn't know was that Haruka had the greatest chakra control in the entire village even the 4th Raikage would pale in comparison and this was how she trained.
This was just a little part of her ability, she could turn 10 kilometers of area into this zone.
But she was now reduced to being the village's item teleportation device… talk about wasted talent.
Anyway, let's focus on how she's teaching him. "So what do we do?" Aki inquired with anticipation.
"Climb up the mountain," Haruka replied.
"WHAAT?" Aki was stunned by the shocking revelation.
"Climb up the mountain that is your task and don't worry about the fall I'll save you."
"Use your chakra to connect with the mountain and climb up for starters you can use both your hands and feet."
Aki nodded even though this was ridiculous compared to what Naruto and team 7 had to go through… just tree climbing.
Why does he have to climb the entire mountain and if he fell… he shivered at the thought.
This training would make him realize why Cloud Village is a group of crazy thrill seekers.
