Progenitor of the Senju and Uzumaki

Chapter 5: Self discovery



Danzo, the leader of the Root Division, stood outside the Hokage's office, his eyes fixed on the door. He had made up his mind to stir things up in the village, and his first step was to visit his old friend, the Third Hokage.

Danzo stepped into the office, his eyes locking onto Hiryuzen's calm demeanor. "Hokage-sama, I've come to discuss the new jinchuriki, Dan Senjumaki."

Hiryuzen looked up from the documents on his desk, a hint of curiosity in his eyes. "What about him, Danzo?"

"I believe he would be a valuable addition to the Root Division," Danzo said, his voice low and persuasive. "With proper training, he could become a powerful asset to our village."

Hiryuzen leaned back in his chair, steepling his fingers together. "I'm afraid that's not possible, Danzo. Dan is still just a child, and he needs time to adjust to his new role as a jinchuriki."

Danzo's expression darkened, his eyes narrowing. "With all due respect, Hokage-sama, I think you're making a mistake. The Root Division could provide Dan with the structure and discipline he needs to control the Nine-Tails."

Hiryuzen's expression remained calm, but a hint of steel crept into his voice. "I understand your concerns, Danzo, but I will not be swayed. Dan will not be inducted into the Root Division. He is a jinchuriki, not a tool for us to use."

Danzo's face twisted in annoyance, but he kept his tone neutral. "As you wish, Hokage-sama. I will respect your decision."

Hiryuzen's eyes narrowed slightly, sensing the underlying tension in Danzo's words. "I appreciate your understanding, Danzo."

As Danzo left the office, Hiryuzen couldn't shake off the feeling that Danzo's acquiescence was only a facade. He knew Danzo's ambition and ruthlessness all too well.

Unbeknownst to Hiryuzen, Danzo had already set his plan in motion. As he walked out of the Hokage's office, he subtly gestured to one of his Root Division members, who was hiding in the shadows.

The agent nodded almost imperceptibly and melted into the crowd, tasked with putting surveillance on Dan Senjumaki. Danzo's eyes gleamed with determination as he disappeared into the village, his plans for Dan already unfolding.

Meanwhile, in another part of the village, Dan was making a groundbreaking discovery. He sat cross-legged on the floor of his bedroom, his eyes fixed on the diagram of the human body in front of him.

As he studied the diagram, Dan's mind began to wander. He thought about his own body, and how he always seemed to have more energy than the other kids in the village.

"Hmm, I wonder if it's because of my chakra?" Dan thought to himself, his eyes scanning the diagram for any clues.

Suddenly, an idea struck him. Dan quickly jumped up and ran to the kitchen, where he grabbed a small bowl of water. He then ran back to his bedroom and placed the bowl on the floor in front of him.

With a determined look on his face, Dan focused his chakra and attempted to perform a simple exercise he had read about earlier. He placed his hands on the floor, palms facing downwards, and began to flow his physical energy into the ground.

As he did so, Dan noticed something strange. The water in the bowl began to ripple and churn, as if it was being affected by an invisible force.

Dan's eyes widened in amazement as he realized that his physical energy was much stronger than he had anticipated. He was only five years old, but his chakra seemed to be more developed than that of kids much older than him.

"Whoa, my physical energy is really strong!" Dan exclaimed, his mind racing with excitement. "I wonder what other cool things I can do with my chakra?"

As he continued to experiment with his chakra, Dan couldn't help but feel a sense of pride and accomplishment. He was special, and he knew it.

"Physical training will commence tomorrow," Dan said to himself, a determined look on his face. "I still want to see if physical energy has limits. If any, what are they?"

Dan Senjumaki woke up early, feeling a mix of excitement and nervousness as he began his first day of physical training. He jogged around the training grounds, his feet pounding the earth as he tried to get his body moving.

As he turned a corner, he noticed a teenager jogging towards him. The teenager was wearing tight-fitting spandex, and his face was contorted in a mixture of effort and concentration.

"YOUTH! YOUTH! IT'S ALL ABOUT THE YOUTH!" the teenager shouted, his voice echoing across the training grounds.

Dan raised an eyebrow, taken aback by the teenager's strange behavior. "Uh, hi?" Dan said, trying to sound friendly.

The teenager stopped in front of Dan, his chest heaving with exertion. "AH, A YOUNG ONE! I SEE YOU'RE ALSO TRAINING TO UNLOCK YOUR TRUE POTENTIAL!"

Dan blinked, unsure how to respond. "Uh, yeah. I'm just trying to get in shape."

The teenager grinned, his eyes gleaming with intensity. "SHAPE? HA! IT'S NOT JUST ABOUT SHAPE, MY YOUNG FRIEND! IT'S ABOUT UNLOCKING THE SECRETS OF THE HUMAN BODY!"

Dan took a step back, feeling a bit overwhelmed by the teenager's enthusiasm. "Uh, okay. Well, it was nice meeting you."

The teenager nodded, still grinning. "THE PLEASURE IS MINE, YOUNG ONE! MAY OUR PATHS CROSS AGAIN SOON!"

With that, the teenager took off, jogging away with a loud "YOUTH! YOUTH!" echoing behind him.

Dan watched him go, shaking his head in confusion. "What just happened?" he wondered.

As he continued his jog, Dan couldn't help but feel a bit amused by the strange encounter. He had no idea who the teenager was, but he had a feeling their paths would cross again soon.

He continued his exercise unaware of the eyes that gazed at his progress. Even Guy was watching the young boy fanning his flames of youth with nostalgia and a malenchony in his facial expressions. This child was special.

Change p.o.v

Hiryuzen sat behind his desk, sipping a cup of tea as he reviewed the daily reports from the village's various departments. As he scanned the pages, one report in particular caught his eye.

"Dan Senjumaki's training report," he murmured to himself, his eyes scanning the page with interest.

According to the report, Dan had spent the entire morning jogging around the training grounds, maintaining a steady pace for hours on end. Hiryuzen's eyebrows rose in surprise as he read the details.

"This is impressive," he thought to himself. "A child of his age should be exhausted after running for such a long time, but Dan seems to have maintained his energy levels throughout."

Restore p.o.v

Dan sat in a meditation pose, his legs crossed and his hands placed gently on his knees. He had trained for hours, pushing his body to its limits, and now he was exhausted.

As he sat, he focused on regaining his breathing, feeling the air move in and out of his lungs. He relaxed his muscles, letting go of the tension that had built up during his training.

As he relaxed, Dan began to feel a sense of connection to his surroundings. He felt the earth beneath him, the air around him, and the energy of the world pulsing through him.

And then, he felt it. An energy outside of himself, vibrant and inviting. It was like a gentle hum, a call that beckoned him to explore and discover.

Dan's curiosity was piqued, and he felt a strong urge to reach out and touch the energy. But he stayed his curiosity, remembering the words of the ninja lore.

"A true ninja must always be mindful of his surroundings," the lore had said. "He must be aware of the energy of the world, but he must not let it control him."

Dan took a deep breath, focusing on his own energy and calming his mind. He would explore this energy further, but for now, he would simply observe and learn.

As he sat, Dan felt the energy of the world pulsing through him, calling to him. But he remained still, a calm and peaceful center in the midst of the vibrant energy that surrounded him.

P.o.v change

The air was electric with tension as two ninjas clashed in a flurry of kunai and shuriken. Their navy blue clothing blended together, making it difficult to distinguish one from the other, but the fan-shaped emblem on their backs was a clear indicator of their shared clan heritage.

As the battle raged on, the only sound was the soft whoosh of steel slicing through the air and the occasional clang of metal meeting metal. The fighters were completely focused on each other, their movements a testament to their intense training.

But as the fight slowed, the features of the two ninjas became clearer. One was significantly smaller than the other, with a cherubic face and deep troughs under his eyes that added to his adorable appearance. His raven-black hair was neatly combed, and his black, pupil-less eyes sparkled with intensity.

The other ninja was taller and leaner, with short, messy hair that framed his angular face. His eyes, too, were black and pupil-less, a characteristic trait of the Uchiha clan. Despite his youth - he appeared to be around twelve years old - he exuded an aura of confidence and skill.

As they circled each other, their chests heaving with exertion, it became clear that these two ninjas were Uchiha Itachi and Uchiha Shisui, both members of the esteemed Uchiha clan. Their shared heritage and intense training had honed their skills to perfection, making them formidable opponents in the art of ninjutsu.

The silence between them was palpable, punctuated only by the sound of their heavy breathing. It was as if they were sizing each other up, waiting for the perfect moment to strike. The air was thick with anticipation, and it was clear that this battle was far from over.

The two were born to battle it was in their blood with a thousand years of clan history and Uchiha genius it was clear that these two were prodigy a level above their agemates.

Itachi having been introduced to the horror's of war and blood shed at the young age of four always had questions about the reality of the world. Profound of which was if true peace can ever be attained.

Shisui having being asked these questions by the young Itachi sort to guide the young prodigy to the right path and help him with the answers Itachi seeks.

While these two were training and getting stronger other clans were also preparing their own children for the academy next semester.

This will be the generation that usher in peace though having experienced war and the nine tails attack. It would be the only generation with prodigious talent since the time of the sanin and the white fang. Only three months to go and the new semester begins.

Restore p.o.v

Dan Senjumaki understood that his physical strength was more expressed than his mental strength.

Chakra in it's basic essence was the expression of the two energies Yin and Yang. His chakra favoured the Yang so balance was not possible currently.

He had the bold idea that should he corporate with the nine tails Yin half this imbalance could be addressed achieving a perfect balance of Yin and Yang.

That was still in the future but for now he would push his physical strength to the limits of his five year old body.
