Chapter 3

It was currently still late into the night. The moon shone brightly down upon the village of Konoha painting a peaceful picture. Except for those who were involved, most of the people in the village hadn't even realized that a giant creature, the Nue, was released on the outskirts of the village in an attempted attack just a few hours ago. The matter was dealt with so quickly that nothing had changed the status quo of the village atmosphere.

Currently within the Hyuga residence in a quiet room was a small round table. The only light within that room was a single candle in the centerpiece. The white steam of hot tea in a pot rested on a large coaster as three people sat in peaceful silence sipping their drink. They were precisely Hyuga Hiashi, Hyuga Hanabi, and the 6th Hokage Izaya. As Hanabi had made so much noise earlier rushing through the Hyuga residence to greet her husband, she had effectively awakened everyone in the Hyuga compound. That was how Hiashi came to know of Izaya's late return and invited him to some late night tea.

As Hiashi sat on one end of the table sipping his tea he couldn't help but curl his lips in an involuntary smile as he watched his daughter snuggle into Izaya's side with an expression of pure joy and happiness.

Sigh. Look at this daughter of mine. They've already been married for many years but she's still head over heels for him. Well, it seems like Lord 6th feels the exact same way for my Hanabi. His feelings for her haven't diminished even after all this time. And they have blessed this old man with two beautiful children. Even the 7th Hokage and Hinata have blessed this old man with Boruto and Himawari. How lucky I am to be blessed with such a wonderful family.

Just as Hiashi was lost in his thoughts he was quickly snapped out of it from Hanabi breaking the silence. "So you finally brought your disciple back to the Leaf just like you said you were. He's quite young. He should be about Hiroshi and Iraia's age right?"

Izaya nodded. "He's close to their age. He's actually a year older than them."

"How come you waited an entire year before bringing him back to the Leaf?"

"Hmm...Well, for several reasons. One, I was still training him. Helping him polish his skills. And two, he had a very tragic past. I've been trying to help him deal with it and mentally overcome it so it wouldn't dictate his life. He's still haunted by it to this day, but he has finally learnt to channel it into something more productive instead of letting it control his life. And even though he's here right now he won't be staying for too long. Zen and I will probably be heading out in a few days."

Hanabi frowned at Izaya's last comment. Izaya took note of it and softly placed his hands on the side of her cheeks.

"Hanabi. I promise I won't be gone very long this time. It's Zen's first time to this side of the continent so I just wanted to show him the other Great Village's first and let him gain some experience. Some new insights. Then I'll come right back. I'm not going off to some other dimension. Okay?"

After hearing what Izaya said she let out a sigh of relief and nodded. "Mn. I hate it when you go off to some unknown dimension. Who knows what kinds of dangers could be waiting for you there. You said it takes an enormous amount of chakra and a lot of preparation to travel dimensions. If you get hurt and can't return I'll never know about it and I wouldn't be able to do anything about it."

Izaya pulled her into a warm hug and softly massaged comforting circles on her back. Hiashi watched this all play-out and simply let out a soft sigh. He always felt conflicted about how his son-in-law always went off on these dangerous excursions which caused his daughter and two grandchildren to worry, however, he also knew that the reason his son-in-law explored these unknown dimensions were for the sake of the entire world. After a few moments of silence Hiashi finally broke the ice and changed the topic.

"Ahem. Naruto stopped by a few days ago along with Hinata. They brought Boruto and Himawari as well."

Izaya turned his attention to Hiashi as he replied, "Oh? It must have been quite crowded with Hiroshi, Iraia, Boruto, and Himawari running around. I haven't seen my niece in a while. How is she?"

Hanabi smirked and replied, "Heh. Crowded? Father smothered them all with so much love I think they felt suffocated. Right father?"

Hiashi simply coughed and almost choked on his tea. "Hmpf. It is only natural that a grandfather should spoil his grandchildren."

Hanabi laughed before raising her eyebrow in confusion and asked, "Izaya, just now you mentioned not seeing Himawari for awhile. What about Boruto?"

Izaya smirked. "Well, I just saw him a few hours ago. Ah, right. You both probably don't know since it all happened so fast but the village was attacked. Now before you both become alarmed you don't have to worry. It's all been taken care of and you can write it off as a minor incident. I'll tell you all about it another time if you want. Or you can just ask Boruto. He helped out."

Hiashi had a pensive look on his face before saying, "Izaya. The reason Naruto and Hinata came over a few days ago was because Boruto believed that he had awakened the Byakugan."

Izaya raised his eyebrow in surprise. "Oh? Like Himawari and Iraia? Or did he undergo some training like Hiroshi?"

Hiashi shook his head. "In the case of Himawari and Iraia, they both awakened their Byakugan from some form of intense emotional stimulus. As for Hiroshi he had undergone a strict training regiment under Hanabi to awaken his Byakugan. But when we tested Boruto here when he visited, his Byakugan didn't manifest itself."

Hanabi nodded. "That's right, but even if it didn't manifest itself he was so sure that he had awakened it. It didn't feel like he was lying."

Hiashi nodded in agreement. "I was wondering if you had some thoughts on this matter Izaya. Many people still don't know, but you yourself possess the Rinnegan. And you have traveled to many different dimensions seeing new and strange powers that we have not. Perhaps you can understand this better than us."

Izaya furrowed his brow in deep contemplation as he thought about it. Boruto huh? In my past life I never got to the Boruto series. I only knew that there was the Uchiha Shin incident that was supposed to occur and in the future there were supposed to be members of the Otsutsuki clan that arrive here on Earth.

Izaya took a sip of his tea before letting out a soft sigh and replied, "It's possible that...what Boruto has is not the Byakugan."

Hiashi and Hanabi immediately raised their eyebrows in curiosity and asked, "Then...what is it?"

Izaya placed his tea cup down before continuing. "Well...I'll be honest. I don't know. There are so many different types of unique powers in the world that one can't know about them all. First of all, Hinata is the Byakugan princess. Her Byakugan is incredibly pure. On top of this Naruto wields within him a portion of every Tailed Beasts and has the power of the Six Paths chakra. Furthermore he is an Uzumaki. The Uzumaki have distant blood ties with the Otsutsuki clan from Hagoromo's side whilst Hinata is a Hyuga, which has distant blood ties with the Otsutsuki clan from Hamura's side. If you factor all of this together it isn't out of the range of possibility that some form of mutation arose within Boruto that gave rise to a new kind of power. So while he may not have awakened the Byakugan, it may be that he has awakened some new kind of power. All I can say is that if it really seems like he isn't lying then he probably isn't. Just because we don't understand what this power is doesn't mean we should ignore Boruto and write him off. Instead it is better to monitor his situation and be supportive of him. He's probably just as confused if not more confused at what this newfound power of his is."

Hanabi and Hiashi took a moment to take in Izaya's words before nodding in agreement. Hanabi involuntarily yawned, prompting a smile to grace Izaya's lips.

"You're tired. I'm sorry I didn't notice sooner."

Hanabi shook her head to refute, but before she could Hiashi laughed out loud and said, "Hahaha! It was my fault for keeping you both out so late. My apologies. I was just glad that my son-in-law had returned and wanted to chat a little. Go. Get some rest you two. Especially you Izaya. I'm sure it's been a long and tiring journey."

Izaya nodded in appreciation before quickly sweeping Hanabi off of her feet bridal style and replied, "Then, we'll take our leave father. I'll be around for the next few days." He then teleported away with Hanabi into their bedroom. Hanabi smiled and wrapped her arms around Izaya not letting him go.

"Izaya, what about the kids and your disciple?"

Izaya just smirked. "What about them? They'll all be fine. Don't forget. They are our kids. And Zen will be fine. He's a good and smart kid. Plus Hiroshi is like you. I'm sure he and Zen will become friends quickly. And Iraia will keep them in line if anything happens." He then smiled mischievously at Hanabi and growled heavily, "Instead of worrying about them, I think you should be more worried about yourself."

Hanabi smirked and let out a playful laugh knowing she probably wasn't going to wake up until late in the afternoon.

As the adults were off discussing and doing their own things, Hiroshi was amiably taking Zen around and showing him the different parts of the Hyuga compound. Iraia simply followed in silence as she occasionally gave a curious look at Zen.

There's something about him that seems familiar. Have we met before? No...that's impossible. Papa said that Zen's from the Sage continent. That's on the other end of the world. I've only been there once with papa and that was back when I was 5 years old.

She slightly shuddered at the memory of the events that transpired back then as she recalled how naive she had been and how weak and powerless she was.

During that time papa had still been the 6th Hokage, however the village had become very stable by that point and was even prospering. Under papa's leadership the village had bounced back from the devastation of the 4th Great Ninja War faster than any of the other villages. One day before papa was about to leave I had asked him to take me along. After mom said it was okay papa took me with him to the Sage continent. I have no idea what papa was going to do over there, but I just wanted to spend more time with him. According to papa there are two great continental divides on this planet. One is the continental divide we are on called the Six Paths continent and the other is on the other side of the world called the Sage continent. I don't really understand everything, but papa says that the reason is because on this side of the divide the people have been influenced by the Sage of Six Paths and their chakra system is that of Ninshu. But on the Sage continent the people there have been influenced by the simple natural energies of the world and their chakra system is that of Senjutsu. I still don't really understand. I haven't asked papa about it ever since.

As she was lost in thought the memories of that day played back in her mind. She recalled how they had traveled around a giant sahara for a few days before reaching a very old looking town. Izaya had gotten a room in a tavern and told her not to leave under any circumstances before leaving to gather some information from the townspeople. However, she heard loud noises and the sound of screaming and shouting from downstairs. They were cries of pain and agony. She was curious as to what was going on and just wanted to take a peek, but when she did she was horrified by what she saw. The tavern owner and her daughter were horribly beaten by these mercenaries and thieves. She couldn't help it. Her body simply moved on its own and she dashed out gripping tightly onto the leg of one of the mercenaries stopping him from kicking the tavern owner to death. They immediately directed their anger at her and began assaulting her as well. She did her best to remain standing in front of the tavern owner and her daughter to shield them.

She knew how to defend her weak areas thanks to learning some Taijutsu from her papa, but she was easily outmatched in strength and skill. All she could do was take the beating. To her surprise a young boy came out of nowhere and stood in front of her trying to shield her from the attack. But just like her that boy was also beaten bloody. She cried in anguish and frustration as she shouted for them to stop. She even tried to help save the boy, but she was beaten back again. She felt so powerless. Before she could move again they had chained her arms and legs in place forcing her to watch as that boy was beaten to unconsciousness. She felt such grief and anger and hurt and sadness that she hadn't even realized that both of her eyes had instantly transformed. Her right eye had awakened the Byakugan whilst her left eye awakened the Sharingan. When those scumbags took notice of the transformation in her eyes they were completely bewildered. Just as they re-approached her she had shut her eyes in fear for what they would do, however, in the next instant she only remembered feeling incredibly warm and safe. The last thing she saw was her papa who held her close to his chest before she fell unconscious. She wasn't sure what happened afterwards because when she woke up she was back in Konoha safe and sound with all of her injuries healed and in her own bed as her papa slept beside her.

She was snapped out of her thoughts from the sound of Hiroshi's voice as he said, "And this is the guesthouse. You can stay here tonight Zen. I'm sorry to have taken so much of your time since it is getting late. I kind of got ahead of myself. Dad mentioned having a disciple a few months ago so I had always wanted to meet you. And so, it was nice to meet you!"

Zen looked down where Hiroshi stuck out his hand for a friendly handshake so Zen didn't stand on ceremony and returned the gesture. As they shook hands Hiroshi smiled before yawning. "Alright. I'm pretty tired. Iraia, don't forget we have class in the morning. We only have a few hours left before we need to get up again. Better catch some Z's." He then turned to Zen and said, "Well Zen, let's hangout some more tomorrow. But I'm going to bed. I'm exhausted." He then walked off leaving only Zen and Iraia standing in front of the guesthouse.

The entire time Zen hadn't been able to calm down the rapid beating of his heart. This was a new feeling for him. He felt butterflies in his stomach just being near her and he didn't know why. Just as he turned to face her the two of them made eye contact. He was instantly lost in her beautiful purple eyes. Hiroshi had purple eyes as well, but for some reason they didn't seem to gleam like Iraia's. Her eyes held something more than just the deep color of purple. They held hidden emotions. Emotions that she didn't want to show to others. Emotions that only those who knew a certain kind of pain, anguish, and suffering could see. And just as he was lost in her eyes, Iraia was also having the same experience. It was the first time she had really taken a look at this boy in front of her. The sparkling golden hue in his eyes looked so mesmerizing, but she couldn't understand why they also seemed so sad. Almost as if they had seen horrors that no child should ever have to see.

A minute passed between them. Then another. It was only after they heard a loud cough that the both of them tore their gazes away from one another. The cough came precisely from Hiashi who stood in the garden in front of the guesthouse. Iraia immediately greeted him and said, "Grandfather!"

Zen also quickly greeted with utmost respect, "Lord Hiashi!"

Hiashi smirked as he watched this all play-out, however, even if he knew that Zen was the personal disciple of his son-in-law, Iraia was still his granddaughter. He quickly went into overprotective grandfather mode and said, "Iraia. It is already late. Why don't you go get some rest. You have to wake up early for school in the morning."

Iraia quickly nodded. "Yes grandpa!" She quickly glanced at Zen one more time before leaving and said, "Have a goodnight."

This just left Zen and Hiashi making Zen feel a bit awkward. Hiashi broke the silence first. "Well. Your name is Zen correct? Mn...Get some rest. I'm sure it has been a long journey." With that Hiashi walked off somewhere into the Hyuga compound. Zen just let out a sigh of relief that he hadn't messed anything up for his sensei.

Right. I know that sensei has offered me a place to stay here, but I'm glad I chose the other arrangement. I need to sort myself out first...

In merely a few hours the sun had risen into the sky. Iraia had already gotten up and prepared for school when she noticed that Hiroshi's door remained closed. She frowned and instantly knew that he would oversleep if she didn't wake him. She knocked on his door but the only answer she received was complete silence. She knocked once more but again got nothing but silence.

Sigh. Hard way it is.

She opened his door to see Hiroshi sloppily asleep as half of his body was on the bed and half was on the floor. His blanket barely even covered him. She simply shook her head, but she also couldn't help smiling at the strange scene it painted in the room. Just seeing her brother like this made her feel warm inside.

He can be a troublesome prankster when he wants to and he can be a fierce shinobi when he wants to. But he's still my silly brother in the end.

In the end she couldn't bring herself to kick him awake so instead she slowly walked up to him and softly shook him.

"Hiroshi."

"Hiroshi."

Hiroshi softly groaned as he felt someone shaking him. "Hmmm?...What is it?"

"It's time to wake up big brother. You'll be late for school otherwise."

Hiroshi instantly opened his eyes in startlement and shouted, "Ah! Crap! I even tried to go to sleep earlier than you so I could wake up in time!"

Iraia just watched Hiroshi dash around his room like a wild monkey and smiled at her brother's silliness before leaving him to his own devices. She quickly made her way into the kitchen and was glad that she did. She was greeted by the sight of Izaya in an apron preparing some breakfast. He quickly noticed her presence and smiled. "Good morning Iraia!"

Iraia smiled as she walked into the kitchen and put her own apron on that was hanging in the kitchen closet and replied, "Good morning papa! Can I help?"

Izaya smiled at how cute his daughter was and nodded. "Alright. Can you prepare the Kale Kobachi? After you're done can you set the table with some rice and the miso soup? I'll finish cooking the grilled salmon."

Iraia nodded happily as she did as instructed.

I'm glad papa is home. Eh? But where's mom? Usually mom is awake already with breakfast made.

"Papa?"

Izaya continued grilling the salmon as he responded, "Hm?"

"Um...Where's mom? She's usually up at this time."

Izaya nearly dropped the salmon he was flipping over at Iraia's question as he recalled the reason why Hanabi wasn't awake yet.

"Ahem...Um, your mom was up very late last night. Since we haven't seen each other in awhile we had a lot to talk about...So she'll probably be asleep for awhile longer. Let's not bother her okay?"

Iraia simply tilted her head a bit in confusion. Eh? But papa is awake already? Isn't he tired too then? Oh well. Best to let mom sleep in then.

She quickly finished preparing the Kale Kobachi and set the table for 4 people. One for her, her papa, Hiroshi, and Zen which prompted her to ask, "Papa, will Zen be joining us for breakfast?"

Izaya nodded as he finished grilling the salmon and brought it to the table. "He is. Where's your brother?"

"Here!" Hiroshi shouted as he quickly stumbled down the hall and into the kitchen. Izaya smirked and walked over to Hiroshi ruffling his hair a bit.

"You were gonna sleep in weren't you?"

Hiroshi smirked at his dad's comment and replied, "You wouldn't have minded would you?"

Izaya laughed but shook his head. "Nope. You're ready to graduate. But still, if your mom found out that I was going to let you skip then we'll both get yelled at. Now come sit down and eat your breakfast. You both have 20 minutes left before you need to go."

"Mn." Iraia and Hiroshi nodded as they took their seats. Just as Iraia was about to ask where Zen was the door that led to the garden and into the kitchen opened revealing his frame. Izaya took a seat at the table and pointed to a seat for Zen to take which he did appreciatively. As everyone began eating their breakfast Izaya paused and took in the sight before him. He felt nothing but pure joy and happiness as he watched the three kids in front of him eating.

If only everyday could be like this. But I'll have to head out soon. According to Senko he's almost ready to open another gate leading to another dimension. After the incident with the moon and Toneri all those years ago I served as the Hokage for another 8 years before handing over the position to Naruto. So I've only been traveling to other dimensions for the last couple of years. In those short amount of years I've been able to enter 8 different dimensions with Senko's assistance. But I'm worried about what I'm finding. Three of those dimensions have been wiped clean of any life and energy. Remnant traces of Divine Tree's fill those lands. Another dimension was filled with nothing but negative energy and dead bodies all around as the symbol of the Jashin cult was plastered everywhere. That negative energy fueled some kind of horrific beast and the only thing in that dimension was that monster. It hunted me down the entire time I was there so in the end I killed it. The power it wielded was no less than at least three of the Tailed Beasts combined. Just what exactly is going on out there?

Izaya was snapped out of his thoughts by the sound of all three kids finishing their breakfast. Hiroshi looked over at his dad and noticed that he had barely eaten anything yet. "Um...Dad? Is everything okay?"

Izaya smiled and took a sip of his miso soup before replying, "Yeah. I'm fine son. Thanks for asking. Now go on. You and your sister are going to be late if you keep delaying."

Hiroshi smirked at his dad's playful jab and dashed out the door while waving goodbye. Just as Iraia had one foot out the door she turned and asked, "Zen, are you not going to join us?"

Zen gave a thoughtful look before shaking his head. "No. I'm not enrolled in the academy so it'd be inappropriate for me to randomly show up." He then glanced at his sensei before continuing, "Besides, I still have some homework I need to finish for sensei."

Iraia simply nodded before rushing out to catch up with Hiroshi. As Zen watched Iraia and Hiroshi disappear around the corner he asked in curiosity, "Karasuma-sensei. How do I compare to Hiroshi and Iraia in my shinobi skills?"

Izaya slightly flinched at the unexpected question but gave it some serious thought. "Hm...well, your Genjutsu skills are second to none. I can't think of anyone who would be your match in that field. Taijutsu-wise? You have Hiroshi beat. But if you want to beat Iraia, heh, then you need to practice more."

Zen raised an eyebrow with interest. "Iraia is better than I am at Taijutsu?"

Izaya simply nodded his head.

Zen tilted his head in deep thought before asking, "Then what about in the other skills?"

"Hmmmm...Other skills huh...Well, that's a bit harder to judge. If we take into account just pure Ninjutsu skills without the use of any Kekkei Genkai then you have the edge over them. But, if you take into account their skills over their Kekkei Genkais, then I can't really give a verdict."

Zen stared at his sensei in confusion and asked, "What do you mean by Kekkei Genkais? You mean Hiroshi and Iraia possess more than one?"

Izaya smiled and without giving a definite answer he replied, "They are my son and daughter after all."

Zen was inwardly shocked at the hidden meaning of his sensei's words. Izaya took note of Zen's shock and said, "Well, you have more real battle experience than they do. You grew up in a harsh place where your life was on the line everyday, so if you had to fight Hiroshi or Iraia one-on-one then it would be your victory, however, if you had to fight them both, then you'd lose."

Zen nodded at his sensei's informative analysis and was shocked, but in a good way. So Hiroshi and Iraia are that strong huh? I guess I should have expected this. They are the son and daughter of Karasuma-sensei. Looks like I still need to work harder.

Izaya quickly finished his breakfast before getting up from the table and created a Shadow Clone. As his Shadow Clone was cleaning up the table he slowly walked out to the courtyard and said, "Zen. Come spar with me as a warm-up. After that we'll focus on improving your control over your Kekkei Genkai."

Zen nodded in seriousness as he stood on the opposite side of his sensei. Izaya nodded in approval at Zen's focus and said, "Start."

Fwish!

Zen activated his Sharingan and dashed as quickly as he could straight at Izaya and quickly struck at his throat. Just before he was going to connect his attack, Izaya had expertly tilted his head to the side to avoid being hit and quickly countered with a palm strike right at Zen's chest. Zen gritted his teeth and with his free hand he quickly parried the strike not letting Izaya touch him. He then quickly followed up with a front kick only for it to miss. He performed a series of kicks, punches, sweeps, and strikes, but each one was less successful than the last as he was greatly outmatched. Just as he saw Izaya's fist aiming straight for his cheek he quickly placed both arms up and expertly guarded the attack. He then followed up by quickly taking out a kunai and slashed right at Izaya's wrist, however, Izaya expertly opened up his fist into a palm and gripped Zen's wrist twisting and disarming the kunai from his hand. As the kunai fell to the ground Izaya kicked it straight towards Zen's chest while still keeping his grip on Zen's wrist. Zen widened his eyes in shock and quickly pulled out another kunai with his free hand bringing it in front of his chest to block Izaya's expert attack.

Ting!

The two kunais clashed as the one aimed at his chest was expertly deflected. Zen then used the kunai in his hand to swipe towards Izaya's hand that was still gripping his wrist, however Izaya quickly grabbed the deflected kunai and at the same time tripped Zen's feet throwing him off balance. This disoriented Zen, causing him to fail in his attempt to free his wrist from Izaya. As he began to fall to the ground Izaya expertly made his way behind Zen and pinned him flat on the ground forcing Zen's arm behind his back. Izaya kept a knee on Zen's back to keep him grounded and placed the kunai in his hand at Zen's throat. The match was over.

Izaya nodded in approval and quickly unhanded his disciple.

"Your skills have improved. You aim for the most vulnerable parts of your target's body to quickly turn the favor into your hands and end the fight. Your ability to quickly utilize kunai in a fight has improved also, but I'm most impressed by your improvements in your reaction speed and your ability to utilize your Sharingan to read your opponent's movements."

Zen massaged his wrist and arm before deactivating his Sharingan and respectfully saluted Izaya saying, "Thanks for the lesson sensei."

Izaya nodded as he stared at Zen in careful consideration. "Zen. Did your mother really never tell you who your father was? The fact that you possess the Sharingan means that either your mother or father was from the Six Paths continent."

Zen could only shake his head as he was just as clueless. "My mother didn't want to talk about my father. She said that my father was a great and brave man, but he was different than the natives of the Sage continent and so he had many enemies. She wanted to protect me from those enemies so she never mentioned it. The only mention she ever made of my father was that he was blind, yet despite that factor he was still incredibly powerful and honorable."

Izaya only furrowed his brow in deep contemplation and confusion.

Zen is an enigma to me. He's like a bridge between both the Six Paths continent and the Sage continent. The natives of the Sage continent are born with natural energy as the basis of their chakra, therefore they are all capable of utilizing Senjutsu. They have all the enhanced traits that Senjutsu gives one in Sage Mode without actually having to enter Sage Mode. The thing is that they don't have a comprehensive system to utilize Jutsu. Only some of the natives there have discovered how to weave hand signs to better gather their chakra to perform Senjutsu, but even then their knowledge is limited. If they had our system of weaving hand signs to mold chakra they would become extremely formidable since all of their Jutsu's would be fueled by natural energy. The downside to their natural power-up is that none of the natives there, as far as I have seen, are born with any Kekkei Genkai. All except Zen. For some odd reason Zen was born with both natural energy like the natives of the Sage continent and Ninshu chakra like us in the Six Paths continent.

He wields both chakras inside of him making him a unique existence. A natural born Senjutsu user with two Kekkei Genkais. And of all Kekkei Genkais one of them had to be the Sharingan! This makes me more baffled. I could understand if it was a Kekkei Genkai born from his innate chakra natures, but the Sharingan stems from the Sage of Six Paths! Long ago when I travelled to the Sage continent I discovered a sealed scroll at a black merchant shop. It was sealed using our Ninjutsu system. I thought that I was the first one to ever make contact with the Sage continent from our continent, but finding that scroll made me realize that I probably wasn't. The thing is, when I searched for the clues relating to that scroll it only leaves me more confused. According to what I had gathered, that scroll belonged to someone called Itachi. But when I surfed through the memories of that merchant who acquired the scroll from this so called Itachi, the frame of that mysterious person doesn't match Itachi's frame at all. I tried searching for that person named Itachi but supposedly he's dead. According to the information I had gathered. Zen is definitely somehow connected to this Itachi, but just who exactly is it? It has to be someone related to the Uchiha...Right?...

In the end Izaya simply let out a sigh in defeat. Well, maybe I'll discover the truth of this matter one day.

"Alright Zen. I want you to focus on trying to activate your Kekkei Genkai. It's been tough on you, but you've made steady progress. Last time you were able to activate it for a total of 4 seconds. Let's aim for 6 seconds today."

Zen nodded as he sat in the lotus position and focused with all his being at the task his sensei put before him.

888

At this time Iraia had dashed off with Sarada and Chocho as they chased after Lord 7th's trail. As they were running Chocho chimed in while eating potato chips, "Is this really okay? Skipping out on school like this? I never took either of you as ones for breaking the rules."

Sarada smirked as she replied, "I overheard Lord 7th say that he's meeting up with papa. I haven't seen him in awhile. I just want to see him before he leaves again. Missing one day of class isn't going to hurt. Besides we're still within the territory of Konoha."

Iraia simply followed along to support Sarada but she silently agreed with what Sarada had said.

Sarada's right. Missing one day of class isn't going to hurt. Even though papa is also gone a lot on his mission he still comes home as often as he can. I can't say the same for uncle Sasuke, but I can understand how Sarada feels.

Just as they were in the middle of their chase they quickly came to an abrupt halt as a strange kid who was probably no older than themselves stood in front of them. He was incredibly pale and gave off an eerie feeling, but the most shocking fact was that he bore the Sharingan in both of his eyes. Sarada stared in wariness and asked, "Who are you? How do you have the Sharingan? I thought papa and Lord 6th were the only ones left who had it."

At Sarada's question that boy simply replied, "I am Uchiha...Shin. You with the glasses. Come with me."

Sarada frowned. "Uchiha?...I thought papa and I were the only Uchiha's left...What if I refuse?"

"Father said to bring you. His orders are absolute." Without wasting anymore words he threw out 5 kunai at them. Sarada quickly reacted as she threw out just as many kunai successfully defending against the attack. Chocho used that moment of opportunity to arrive behind Shin and shouted, "Partial Expansion Jutsu!" She struck down with her enlarged arm, however Shin successfully avoided her attack and backflipped into the air. He pulled out a scroll and summoned a large fuma shuriken with a chain attached throwing it straight at Chocho.

Iraia's right eye quickly transformed into that of the Byakugan as she struck out with her palm and shouted, "Eight Trigrams Vacuum Palm!" A powerful thrust of air collided against the fuma shuriken deflecting it to the side giving Chocho enough time to regroup by Iraia and Sarada's side. Just as Shin landed on the ground Sarada quickly formed her hand signs and shouted, "Fire Style: Fireball Jutsu!"

Shin furrowed his brow at how quickly and skilled his opponents had coordinated their attacks as he dashed to the side to avoid being scorched. It was then that Chocho shouted once more, "Partial Expansion Jutsu!" This time her giant fist connected and slammed against Shin's chest sending him flying through the air. Iraia took this chance to throw several shuriken at him, however Shin frowned in frustration and activated his Mangekyo Sharingan. Instantly his eyes went from the standard Sharingan pattern to a giant black pupil in the center with three small triangular shaped patterns protruding from it. Through the power of his Mangekyo he controlled his 5 kunai from earlier to fly through the air and intercept Iraia's attack. He then took out a scroll and summoned more than 20 kunai aiming them right at Iraia. He also remotely controlled his large chained fuma shuriken to fly straight at Chocho.

Sarada panicked and shouted, "Chocho! Iraia!"

Iraia frowned and quickly shouted, "Eight Trigrams Vacuum Palm!"

Bang!

She successfully deflected the giant fuma shuriken away from Chocho in the distance, and just before the 20 kunai could reach her she shouted, "Eight Trigrams Palms Revolving Heaven!" With a quick spin of her body a giant whirlwind of chakra created a powerful dome-like shield around her that deflected all 20 kunai away. Chocho and Sarada were shocked at Iraia's display of her Hyuga Taijutsu prowess. All this, however, only proceeded to anger Shin even more. Just as he was preparing another attack Naruto appeared, but before Naruto could act a small strange creature with a single Sharingan appeared before Shin and said, "Shin. Forget it. That is the 7th Hokage. Rumored to be one of the greatest shinobi of his time. Retreat for now. You can't beat him on your own."

Shin could only grit his teeth and nodded as the strange creature teleported both itself and Shin away in a swirling distortion. Naruto frowned. "The Transportation Jutsu? That's troublesome."

Sarada slowly walked up to Naruto and asked, "Lord 7th, who was that? What do they want?"

Naruto gave a thoughtful look for a moment as he looked at the three young kunoichi in front of him before replying, "Well. I'm not all that sure yet, but for some reason they wanted you Sarada."

"EH? Me?" Sarada exclaimed.

Naruto walked over and gently patted Sarada's shoulder reassuringly. "Don't worry, I'll protect you. All of you...that's what I'd like to say, but from the looks of how you three fought earlier it didn't really seem like you needed my help. I'm happy to know that the kids from my village are so skilled." He then turned to look at Iraia and said, "Iraia, I didn't know you had awakened the Byakugan. Your control over it is impressive."

"Thank you Lord 7th. I still have much to learn." Iraia simply replied.

Chocho just went back to eating her potato chips and asked, "What now?"

Naruto let out a sigh. "Well, I can't just send you all back to the village alone now with a hidden threat looming around. Guess the safest place for you all right now is with me. Truth is I'm about to go and meet Sasuke. I'm sure he'll be happy to see you Sarada. Let's go."

"Mn." The three of them nodded as they followed Naruto to the meeting point where Sasuke was.
