章節 33: Chapter 33 - Interlude 01 - Kensei, Hiruzen, Sasuke

Kensei Yasaji.

Kensei was eating his morning breakfast when he noticed Daichi coming down. "Good morning Gramps." Daichi greeted him. As he looked at Daichi, Kensei noticed something strange.

'His chakra reserve has increased and he seems to be on alert.'

Even though it wouldn't be obvious to someone normal, Kensei saw the signs. He watched Daichi take a look at the exits and take in every object in the room quickly and subtly. He sat down without saying anything and ate his breakfast.

Kensei quickly sensed Daichi's chakra signature to verify it's his grandson. 'It's Daichi alright.! So then what's up with him?'

"Did something happen last night?"

The question startled the boy. He put a wide smile on his face and replied. "Nothing happened… Why do you ask?"

"You seem to be on guard. More vigilant and wary of your surroundings." Kensei replied in a confused tone.

"Oh? I'm trying to be more vigilant of my surroundings. I read in a book about taking in every detail when in enemy territory. Trying to make this a habit…" Daichi said with a straight face. He did read something similar in a book so he wasn't lying.

Hearing Daichi's answer satisfied Kensei.

"Anyway...Umm...Something else did happen last night." Daichi had a sheepish smile on his face as he said this.

Seeing Daichi's jovial expression, Kensei let go of his worries. "What is it?" He was curious as to what brought the change.

"I learned two jutus. One for water and one for wind."

"Have you tried them?" Kensei asked.

"No." Daichi replied with a straight face. "I was thinking we could go over them after we had some breakfast."

Kensei nodded in approval. They quickly finished their food and went outside. They reach the training area in their backyard. Kensei motioned for Daichi to begin.

Daichi quickly went through the hand seals for the water style jutsu. A fast spiraling blast of water shot from his mouth and destroyed the small stone he aimed at. Kensei was examining Daichi as he used the Jutsu. He noticed his grandson's chakra reserves had increased by a wide margin. Noting that he had enough chakra to perform another jutsu, Kensei motioned Daichi to perform the next one. The wind style wind bullet jutsu was quickly demonstrated as well. Daichi turned around to look at his grandpa.

"So what do you think?"

Kensei examined the aftermath of the two Ninjutsus. He was more than impressed that a first year academy student had the reserves and control to pull off two techniques that looked like they were C Rank level.

"Your chakra volume has grown far more than someone your age. And your chakra control is exceptional. To successfully use two chakra nature jutsus that are not of your natural affinity… That's impressive." Kensei was impressed by Daichi's improvement and dismissed Daichi's strange behavior in the morning. "I take it you have something in mind for telling me this."

Daichi nodded. "Can you give me 3 simple easy jutsus for the remaining chakra natures."

"So you want a fire, lightning and earth nature jutsus. Why do you need them?" Kensei's curiosity peaked.

"I want to feel what it's like to use all 5 elements. Understand the way my chakra changes to each element. Improve my control. All that stuff." Daichi gave his answer. He was hoping his grandfather would approve.

After listening to Daichi's reasons and thinking about it for some time he agreed. He took his grandson to his library and gave him 3 scrolls detailing C Rank jutsus for fire, earth and lightning nature. After informing his grandson that he was going out, Kensei left.

He was walking down the road thinking about Daichi's progress. It really baffled him. 'The speed of his growth is truly abnormal. And his chakra reserves had increased quite a bit since the last time I sensed them. And his talent… He makes me look like chopped liver. His talent is far beyond what I initially thought… '

'Maybe… Just maybe… He can do it… Stand at the top of this era… Wouldn't that be something? But this will also bring him attention. Sooner or later the eyes of everyone important is going to fall on him. He'll need to prepare for that…'

Kensei thought about Daichi and his enormous talents and his thoughts drifted to his late son. He shook his head and sighed after a few moments clearing his thoughts. He looked up in front of him. He had reached his destination. The orphanage where he met Daichi.

He went inside and met with Aiko.

"Hello Aiko. It's been a while." Kensei sat and smiled.

"Yes it has. How have you been? Not bored I imagine." Aiko smiled at her old friend.

"No. Not with Daichi around."

"How is he by the way?" Aiko asked.

"Good. Great actually. He got first place in the academy this semester. A natural born genius. It's interesting to have him around to say the least." Kensei smiled as he recalled his experiences with Daichi. They talked about the past for a while. While talking about Daichi's training Aiko suddenly remembered something. The visit from the Special Jonin Genma.

"Kensei. There's something I think you should know. The Hokage enquired about Daichi." Aiko said in a somewhat serious tone.

"What! When?" Kensei exclaimed.

"A few days after you adopted him."

"Did he come here personally?"

"No. He sent one of his guards…" Aiko was silent for a second before asking "What are you going to do? I know you and lord third have a history… Is that going to affect Daichi?"

Kensei sighed and replied. "No. What happened between me and Hiruzen won't affect Daichi. He's not that kind of a man… But someone like Danzo on the other hand… Has he come here recently?"

Aiko shook her head. "No. He hasn't, not since that day."

"Probably due to Hiruzen. He always had a soft spot for you. Especially after all the things you did for the village… I am curious though… Have you found out the source of the funds you received?" Kensei wanted to know if Aiko found her mysterious benefactor.

The orphanage and Aiko received a very large sum of money shortly after the nine tails attack. When she received the money Aiko believed it was someone who wanted to help the orphans at such a terrible time. But with that money came 1 important instruction.

Never let Danzo Shimura take any of the children at the orphanage.

Aiko knew the kind of man Danzo was. She made sure to screen every person she hired at the orphanage. 2 years after the attack, Danzo came trying to recruit a couple of children for his organization but Aiko refused. When he started to make trouble for her, the Hokage intervened. Danzo never bothered her again.

She would protect all the children under her care. But she was curious as to why that money came with that particular condition.

Kensei and Aiko spent a couple of hours reminiscing about the past and talked about various topics. After some time Kensei left the place.

—-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hokage's Office.

The Hokage Hiruzen Sarutobi was looking over the mission reports of the Anbu Team Ro. He paid attention to the Rank and number of missions completed by the team. Team Ro under Anbu captain Kakashi Hatake was a formidable squad.

'With Itachi's addition to the team, their mission completion rate has increased twofold. Today is the last day of their one week break.'

The Hokage took another folder and reviewed it's contents. After going through it he came to a decision. 'I'll assign Kakashi's team to this. They're the most suitable.'

Once he stamped the last of the top secret and critical documents with his official seal he took a break from his work. He went near the window and looked out.

'Things are getting progressively worse with the Uchiha clan. Itachi and Shisui were the only ones who stood on our side from the clan. But now that Shisui is dead things have gotten much worse. The Police force is investigating the matter. Even though it appears as a suicide to the world, the Uchiha won't buy into that. Now Itachi is the only informant I have in the clan. If something happens to him as well…'

Hiruzen sighed as he thought about the burdens he carried on his shoulders and the burdens he placed on the 11 year old genius of the Uchiha clan.

'I'll have to trust Itachi on this matter. I hope he'll be able to convince Fugaku and the other Uchiha clan members. Negotiation is the only way to solve this problem. And the sooner the better.'

Soon he went back to work. He looked over the important reports first and after some time came to the documents regarding the academy tests. He looked over the results of the first year semester and what he saw was what he thought but it still somewhat surprised him.

'Just as I expected. Daichi took first place in almost all the tests. He was even able to beat Sasuke Uchiha and score higher marks. It seems my intuition was right.'

'During the entrance ceremony I noticed his chakra volume. It had grown several times from when I first met and sensed him. And it felt like he had precise control over it as well. He had grown a lot stronger in just one year. And based on the reports Daikoku made from his observations, it seems Daichi is still holding back. Daikoku notes that Daichi is eligible for skipping a grade.'

'Should I do it?... No! It's still too soon. Let him develop a healthy and strong mind first. I'll have him graduate with his class or if he's really impressive then maybe a year early. That should be enough.'

The Hokage went over the results of the whole class and made mental notes of all the students who showed some talent. He paused when his eyes reached a certain name.

Naruto Uzumaki.

'It would seem he has your looks, Minato. But he's inherited his attitude from Kushina.'

'A troublemaker. Recently he started pulling pranks on teachers. Bad in studies but has a positive attitude… I suppose that's a fair assessment from the teacher… But I know you'll do great things one day, Naruto. You're the one Minato entrusted with the Nine-tails after all.'

He looked over the academy files and continued on with his works.

—--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Uchiha Clan. - Sasuke's Home.

Sasuke was sitting in front of his father Fugaku Uchiha. Sasuke had a downcast expression as his father went through every line in his report card. Once he was done, he placed the card down and looked at his youngest son. His face showed no emotion. After staring at his son for over a minute he broke the silence.

"This was unexpected, Sasuke. You got second place… I thought you'd be like your brother but it seems I'm wrong."

Sasuke clenched his fists around his knees. He didn't even have the strength to look at his father. He closed his eyes and gritted his teeth. He stayed like that, never speaking a word.

"What do you have to say for yourself?" Fugaku asked in a stern voice.

"I'm sorry father. I'll do better next time." The young Uchiha replied.

"Don't forget. Your brother took first place in the academy and graduated in less than six months. He is a genius like no other. Now that you've joined the academy you have to hold yourself up to his standards. You need to work harder. Much harder. Do you understand?" Fugaku asked.

"Yes father. I'll train more." It was the only reply the young Uchiha gave.

Fugaku got up and was about to leave but abruptly stopped. "The child who defeated you. What is his name?" He enquired.

Sasuke was quiet for a few seconds and then answered in a small voice. "Daichi… Daichi Hekima."

Fugaku nodded and left the room. He always held Sasuke to the same standards he did Itachi. But seeing his son not take the first spot in his class disappointed him. But at the same time Fugaku became a bit interested in the boy that defeated his child.

Sasuke was in a turmoil. Tears started rolling down his face. He stayed seated on the ground even after his father had left and cried, but he never made a single sound.

'Itachi… Daichi… I… I hate you both.' It was the only thought that went through his head as he silently shed tears in misery.

章節 34: Chapter 34 - Meeting Ren Uchiha

His grandfather had left after giving him the three scrolls. Daichi stored them in his inventory and left home as well. He had a special goal in mind.

Daichi was walking through a forest near the outskirts of the village. He had been visiting various places within the village to find more dungeons. His journey was somewhat successful. He located another instant dungeon. He decided to save it for the next year.

Daichi hadn't gotten the reward for clearing the dungeon from the quest 'Path to the strongest'. He figured he would only get it at the end of the first academic year. He wanted to know what that reward would entail.

Now he was looking for a place to train. Somewhere quiet and away from people so he could test out his jutsus. As he kept walking he saw something unexpected.

Several round target boards were hung on trees all around him. As he looked at it he felt a sense of Deja Vu. 'Where have I seen this place before.' As Daichi racked his memory for an answer, it hit him.

'I remember now. This place. This is where Itachi practiced his shuriken jutsu. It's where he showed Sasuke his shuriken throwing techniques before Sasuke entered the academy. Oh man… That means I'm near the Uchiha clan compound. I better leave before I attract unwanted companies.'

Daichi turned around and was about to walk away but something stopped him. He opened his skill list and saw it.

[Shurikenjutsu - Active(LV.89(95.7%))]

[Effects: +95% Increase in accuracy.

+85% Increase in damage dealt.]

'This is the skill that increased the most during my dungeon fight. Makes sense. I wanted to keep those things at bay and I've been using shuriken and kunai at every fight against those beasts. I used chakra threads to control the speed and trajectory of the weapons. My increased dexterity helped me a lot in improving this particular skill.'

Daichi took a moment and looked at all the targets hanging on the trees. He wondered.

'Is it possible… Do I have Itachi's level of shuriken skill? He is a master with this technique. He could even hit targets in his blindspot…'

Daichi looked around and he saw another hidden target behind a rock. He wanted to know if it was possible for him…

'Can I do it? One way to find out, I suppose. Since I'm here I might as well give it a shot. If I want to be the best then I can't shy away from any challenges that come my way.'

Daichi took off his glasses and walked forward. He stood in the center of the clearing with the targets all around him. There were nine targets all around him in plain view and one hidden behind a rock. A total of 10 targets for him to hit.

Daichi stood still looking at all the targets and memorizing their locations. He spent a few minutes looking and engraving the position of each target into his memory. He took 8 kunais from his back pouch and held each one between his fingers. He closed his eyes, calmed his breathing and concentrated.

A familiar feeling came to him. The sensation of being in the dungeon surrounded by beasts that wanted to tear him apart. Daichi opened his eyes in an instant and jumped.

He jumped high and flipped upside down. His eyes landed on all the 9 targets in his view in an instant. His hands moved in a precise yet smooth manner. His fingers loosened and he quickly let go of each kunai he held between his fingers one by one.

All eight weapons left his hands within a couple of seconds. The first six of them were aimed at the targets while the last two were not. Without wasting an instant he took out two more from his back pouch and threw them in the direction of the last two kunais at a faster speed. Metals collided against metals and the force changed the trajectory of all four weapons.

Daichi once again flipped in midair and landed perfectly on the ground. He looked around and wanted to see the results. What he saw surprised him.

Even though the kunais all hit their targets, some of them weren't in the dead center. He missed the center of five of the nine targets by a few centimeters. Daichi walked to where the 10th and the hidden target lay. It too had a kunai stuck in it, but just like the ones that missed the center, it wasn't a perfect shot as well.

Suddenly several notifications popped up.

[Due to successful control of your body and senses, you have obtained +1 DEX]

[+1 SENSE]

[Skill Shurikenjutsu's level has risen by one.]

[Shurikenjutsu - Active(LV.90(23.1%))]

[Effects: +95.8% Increase in accuracy.

+87% Increase in damage dealt.]

Watching the results of his shurikenjutsu skills, Daichi felt a very strange emotion. He felt sad and happy at the same time.

Sad because even with the gamer ability and the battles he went through in the dungeon, he still couldn't make a perfect 10 out of 10 score with all the kunais landing in the center.

'Even with the gamer abilities I could only achieve this much. And even then… It took me a few minutes to completely concentrate and make the best shot I possibly could. If I was in the middle of a battle or a test I doubt I could accomplish the same results…'

'And yet… That Itachi. He was able to make this look so easy. What a monster. Some teachers in the academy call me a genius but I was only able to become that because of my future knowledge and the gamer powers. Compared to someone like Itachi… I'm…'

Daichi closed his eyes and took a breath. He exhaled and opened his eyes. He was calm again.

'No. I shouldn't think like that. Itachi's talent doesn't affect me. It shouldn't. There will be several people like him here in this world… Their success and strength isn't my weakness. I have to remember that.'

While he felt a little sad he also felt extremely happy. Happy because doing something like this was unimaginable to him in his previous life. And even here only exceptional ninjas like Itachi or the late fourth Hokage could make better shots than him. He had set his first foot into joining the ranks of shinobis who were hailed as legends.

'Still… I wonder. If Itachi hadn't gone down the path he had… If he hadn't caught that terminal lung disease… How strong would he have become?... There's no doubt in my mind... With his talent and prodigious skills, he would have become strong enough to be on the same level as Madara Uchiha one day… Well. That is if things hadn't ended up the way they did.'

Daichi sighed. He decided that there was no point dwelling on things out of his control. As he prepared to leave he heard someone clapping. He swiftly turned around and saw a young man walking towards him clapping his hands and with a smile on his face.

'Damn it. I didn't even try to see if there was anyone hidden. He probably saw my shuriken jutsu work. Ok Daichi. Calm down.'

'Observe.'

[LV.61] [Ren Uchiha]

[Age: 27]

[HP: 6988 ] [CP: 6855]

[Ren Uchiha is a member of the Uchiha clan. Although he is a talented shinobi who made chunin at 14 and joined the Leaf military police force, he doesn't have much ambition. A year ago he married his childhood friend Kimiko Uchiha. Along with a strong devotion to his clan, he is also dedicated to protecting the Leaf village. He is one of the few Uchiha that never fell victim to the clan's 'Curse of Hatred'. He has powerful chakra and has awakened the two tomoe Sharingan. He is a powerful sensor ninja with a long range. He is a smart and kind person, always willing to help others in need.]

'Wow. An Uchiha. And based on the information a pretty strong one. But it looks like I don't have to worry much about him. He doesn't look like he's here to cause trouble.'

"That's really impressive shurikenjutsu. I only know of two other people who could do what you just did at your age." The new arrival said.

He had shoulder length hair which framed his face and the rest of which he tied into a ponytail. He wore a high collared blue shirt which had the Uchiha crest in its back and dark pants with sandals. He had a small smile on his face as he looked at Daichi.

Daichi put on a slight smile and replied. "Thank you."

"I'm Ren Uchiha. What's your name?"

At this question Daichi paused for a second before answering. He figured it wouldn't make much difference if this Uchiha knew his name or not.

"Daichi Hekima."

"Ohh. So you're the one who got the top spot amongst the academy's first years." Ren had a teasing smile as he said this.

Daichi was confused as to how he would know this information. "How do you know that?"

"It's not everyday you hear that someone beat the clan head's son for first spot. You're in Sasuke's class aren't you?!" Red posed the question as a statement.

Daichi simply nodded. He asked with some suspicion. "Are you following me? How did you get here?"

Ren chucked and raised his hands in mock surrender. "Easy big guy. I wasn't following you. I sometimes simply walk through these woods to enjoy the peace and quiet." As he said the last sentence his joyful expression was slightly saddened. A second later it disappeared and he once again put on a jolly face.

'What was that about?' Daichi wondered.

"So like I said earlier. Excellent shuriken skills. Who taught you how to throw like that?" Ren asked, curious to know the identity of this boy's teacher.

"No one. I learnt it myself." Daichi gave a short reply.

Ren's eyes slightly widened. He knew the skills and talent required to perform such a feat. Trained shinobi with years of experience were capable of doing what Daichi did but not when they were in the academy. "That's very impressive." He couldn't help but say.

"Do you often come here to train?"

"No." Daichi shook his head. "I just saw the targets and wanted to test my skills."

Ren nodded in understanding. "Nobody comes here these days. So it's a good place to train without anyone disturbing you." At that moment an alarm rang on Ren's watch. He looked at it and realized it was almost time for his patrol shift. "It's time for me to leave. It was nice meeting you Daichi. Get home safely." He turned around and left.

Daichi waited for a minute and then used the 'chakra sense' skill to see if he or anyone else was still nearby. He couldn't sense anybody within a 40 meter range. Figuring that he really was alone he let out a breath.

'I never thought I'd meet an Uchiha other than Sasuke and maybe Itachi later down the line… I'll probably never see him again. It's best to keep it that way. I better leave before anyone else shows up.'

Daichi turned around and left for his home.

—-----------------------------------------------------------------

A few minutes ago.

Ren was walking through the woods to calm his troubled mind. 'These secret clan meetings had gotten more intense. There were even talks about a coup d'etat against the leaf.'

Even though he loved his clan he was someone who never agreed with the clan's views on the village.

'Now with Shisui's death things have only gotten worse. Is there anything I can do?'

As he walked he sensed a chakra several meters ahead of him. He quietly went behind a tree and looked. He saw a small child intently looking at the kunai targets hanging on the tree. He saw the child closing his eyes and concentrating. Wanting to see what the kid was going to do, Ren didn't make a sound and stayed motionless.

He watched in amazement as the kid jumped and launched the sharp weapons between his fingers one by one. He saw the first 6 kunai perfectly hitting the targets. He was a bit confused when he saw the last two were aimed nowhere near the last targets.

But that confusion soon turned into astonishment when he saw the child deflect them with another two kunais and all of them striking their mark. An amazing feat when considering that the child managed to hit the one even in his blind spot.

'What incredible talent. Who is this boy? He doesn't wear the clan crest so he's not an Uchiha.'

Ren walked forward and struck up a conversation with the child. He was surprised to find out that this is the boy who defeated Sasuke. It came as a surprise to everyone when Sasuke, the son of the clan head, was in second place. Now having seen his skill, he could understand why. It was even more impressive that he learned to do it himself.

It was then that his alarm went off and reminded him of his patrol shift. He walked away hoping to meet this talented kid again.

—--------------

Both Ren and Daichi didn't realize it at the time but this meeting would be the first of their many and would eventually change the destiny of another.
