章 8: The Beginning.

Ryu growled as Yato Hyuuga used his palms to seal his Tenketsu with the use of the Gentle Fist. The Uzumaki Namikaze boy decided to use his own original taijutsu, inspired by several taijutsus he had seen over the years of his existence.

Of course he had all of it covered with one of his Infinite Paths, ' Reality Manipulation ' basically no one thought of him using his Taijutsu here as weird. It was as natural as an Hyuuga having the Byakugan.

Basically it was a mix of different Taijutsus, making it extremely chaotic. Ryu interrupted Yato's Gentle Fist by using his elbow to create chaos in his stance, and jumped almost outside the circle.

His skin started to release a bit of steam, making Iruka sweat,"Oi,oi... That is in no way a simple Taijutsu style!" Ryu's skin suddenly turned red, and he sent his fist forward, punching Yato ,breaking his stance entirely.

"Wha-" The 7 years old boy could only gasp in amazement as he was suddenly overwhelmed by a barrage of punches and kicks. Iruka had to soon interrupt the spar, because it was getting too one sided.

Ryu did not allow Yato to use his Gentle Fist, by creating chaos in his stance, and the inexperienced boy could only look as he was defeated effortlessly by Ryu.

"Ryu wins!" Iruka shouted as he broke the two from each other. With a sigh he looked at Ryu and massages his temples," Ryu... can you hold back next time? I don't want to go explain to parents why their student went home with several bruises."

Ryu pouted before nodding," It's not my fault they are this weak... But since you want me to hold back, I will, Iruka-sensei!"

The students went back to their class, as Iruka started to ask them to perform the Body Replacement Jutsu. Most of them failed, besides Ryu,Yato,Ken and another few students.

Ryu felt annoyed to have to do such low level jutsus, E Rank. But again he was a student, so that probably was a requirement to graduate. His plan to graduate in the next year was being put to place.

Usually Ryu didn't really train, because his Mortal form was already strong as it is, he could practically just make his strength higher with time, and he used his path 'Reality Manipulation' to make others think he was training, so most of the time he was bored.

Basically he was bored, because he didn't have to train, didn't have much to do, and preforming low level jutsus just hurt his confidence...

Thinking of what had happened recently, Ryu smiled. His siblings, Naruto and Yuki had went into a C Rank Mission which had later turned into B Rank, it was situated in the Land Of Snow, where they had saved the princess of that land.

Man, he had missed some quality adventures...

He would definitely demand a C Rank Mission immediately after he became a Genin, even if it meant using his Mokuton to cheat Missions, by completing them in a flash. Mhm, now he needed to train Yato and Ken.

A week slowly passed, and Ryu walked towards Ken with a smile. The Uchiha scowled at his appearance, he was feeling very annoyed by the fact he had one equal here, and another who surpassed him.

"What do you want,dumb head?" The childish Ken said with a growl, as if he was a wild beast, totally not suiting his surname as an Uchiha.

"You don't need to be so wild, Ken... I am here to give you an offer you cannot possibly refuse easily!" Ken grinned as he extended his hand to Ken," I can help you train, and reach my level, in exchange you need to be my friend, and also join my own genin team!"

"..." Ken looked at him with a 'are you serious' face, Ryu rolled his eyes, he wanted to use his Reality Manipulation Path, but it would be too easy. " I'll teach you a C Rank Jutsu." Ryu said with a serious face, Ken could see that the boy his age was not lying, and sighed and extended his arm, the two hands connected with each other.

"Ken Uchiha, I Ryu Uzumaki Namikaze… Promise you power!" Ryu grinned.

"You really will teach me a C Rank Jutsu?" Ken said with a face which held curiosity, "I'll teach it to you when we find a private place, we can't burn the school, can we?" Ryu joked as he revealed a smile in his face.

He told Ken he was going to get another buddy, and called Yato here, he had the same chat as with Ken with him, and both of them agreed, mainly due to the fact Ryu was already monster-like compared to the people in his class, Ken was even sure that in the entire academic classes of this year, few could compare to Ryu.

"So... Class is over, we are free for the entire day, what are we going to do now? You are going to teach us the Jutsus?" Yato said and pointed at Ryu who smiled," I will... Just wait for a second..."

"This is..." Ken panted as he smiled in amazement, " The effects of that jutsu are amazing!"

Ryu smiled, he had taught the two a C Rank Jutsu, but Yato did not really like using it, as Hyuuga's typically relied on Taijutsu, the Gentle Fist Style to fight other shinobis, but Ken absolutely loved it.

Ryu rolled his eyes, somehow he'd have to awaken Hamura's Chakra inside Yato, he was his descendant, so he probably could awaken it, he could also give him the Tenseigan, that would endanger him, but with a seal it would be okay for him to use it freely.

For Ken, Ryu planned to give him EMS, but the Rinnegan was also one of his plans, but beyond that he couldn't do much besides giving him a few more abilities through his Infinite Paths, but for now teaching them a few stuff here and there was enough.

They would be polished to the greatest shinobis of this era no doubt about that.
