Chapter 17: Senju Compound
"So you two wanted to speak with me?" Hiruzen asked "Make it quick, I have an appointment in 10 minutes"
Hashirama grinned "Oh don't be like that.. Little Saru" after he said that he dropped the Henge.
Hiruzen went wide eyed before, stripping himself of the Hokage Robes and revealing his battle outfit underneath
"You will have to forgive me if I don't believe you are the real shodaime" Hiruzen said respectfully
"Oh?' Hashirama intoned, before using a Wood technique to knock the ANBU in the room clean out "How's this for proof?" he said with a wide smile
Hiruzen stood there agape for a few moments, before bowing low to the ground
"Welcome back, Lord First" he said respectfully
"Maah Maah, none of that Saru, lift your head" Hashirama said, scratching the back of his neck
Hiruzen did so and stood straight "I thought you were dead Lord First.. Where were you all this time?" He asked curiously
"Well there was a time when I was dead" The Hokage went wide eyed "I saw the Pure world clearly, I got to meet my Father, Toka, the rest of the Senju.." Hashirama reminisced "But I was pulled back. Summoned by this kid beside me" I waved as the Hokage looked at me in shock "I know right, 'how would a mere kid summon the legendary God of Shinobi?'" he remarked to witch everyone laughed "Yeah, well I have no clue, and neither does little Jack here. Apparently he's a survivor of the Uzumaki clan as well" The Hokage gaped at that, and had to sit down at his desk "Yeah, there's another one too in his little group, as well as a Shirogane" he explained
"Shirogane?" Hiruzen questioned "I thought they were all wiped out?"
"Apparently not. Some of them probably escaped up north to Ame and settled down there, though the kids parents were killed during the end of the First war, so she's an orphan and Most likely the last of her clan" The acting Hokage looked like he aged a couple years at that. I understand you completely Hiruzen, the nightmares of Paperwork.....
He sighed "Anything else I should know?" He was already getting too old for this shit, damn
"Nothing of importance, other than that Little Jack here has the Wood Release" Hiruzen groaned, while Hashirama just stood there and snickered
"*sigh* alright, I'll get the Senju compound cleared up for you and your little entourage tonight. For now I'll prepare a hotel for you.. I presume Jack here and his friends would like to enter the Academy?" Trying to get me to join Konoha eh? I'll do it for now, BUT I WILL NOT SERVE UNDER YOU HIRUZEN!
"Yeah, Me, Shirogane Nanami, Akei Shinji, Uzumaki Nagato, and Yahiko and Konan, no last name" I told him, to which he nodded
"Alright, well please leave, I don't need anymore paperwork than what you've given me" he complained, and Hashirama burst out in giggles. Hiruzen glared at him and he giggled harder
We left the Hokage Tower with a giggling Hashirama, and Hiruzen 10 stacks greater in paperwork to secretly file away. Out in front of the Tower stood the whole group waiting for us there
"Alright team, we got ourselves a place to stay at for our time here in Konoha!" They all smiled at that "For tonight we will have to stay at a hotel, but tomorrow we will be moving into the Senju compound for the next two to two and a half years" I explained, and they all nodded in understanding.
After that we all found a hotel for the night to sleep in, which was all in good nights fun - especially with bowls of water and sharpies heheheh
The next morning found us standing in front of the Senju Compound, which was.. honestly very big
It was up top behind the Hokage monument, and it took up maybe a third of the entire space allotted up here, the rest belonging to secret training grounds and the Hokage's house
It contained no less than 50 buildings, most of which were Residential quarters - which proved the size of the Senju was no laughing matter
The other buildings consisted of about 4 Blacksmiths, 2 Apothecaries, an on grounds Hospital, a large greenhouse, a Main clan Building in the middle of the compound, and what I was most excited for - The Senju clan Library. Apparently, from what Hiruzen told us, it was blood sealed so that only the Clan head could open up the barriers surrounding it, and Tsunade never wanted to read anything related to the Senju Clan - too many bad memories for her - So it was never touched. People have tried to break in, but the barrier put on this was made by a very powerful Sealing Grand Elder, anyone below that rank wouldn't be able to make a dent in the barrier without some space-time teleportation technique like Kamui, and even if you do Kamui your way inside the whole place will shock you until you teleport yourself out or die
So damn right I was excited to read whatever the hell was in there!
"Alright, follow me, I'll tell you where you will be staying" Hashirama said walking off into the compound
He lead us around to the center of the compound where we got a good look at the Clan Head's home, and it was huge - about 4 stories tall and maybe 80 Meters in diameter at the base. Hashirama explained to us that there were about 100 different rooms in there, including a basement with different kinds of seals and safety measures placed on it. He said that most of the rooms were living spaces, with a few kitchens or storage rooms here and there
He brought us inside and turned on the lights. There was almost no dust in this place whatsoever, and the food in the kitchens were still good. I questioned him how this was possible but all he said was "Seals" and kept walking
He showed each of us to our living spaces, to which we all got rooms on the second floor of the building. We all unpacked our things and went to explore - Shinji went out to check out the smithy, Konan came with me to look at the library, Nagato went to look at the greenhouses, Yahiko went to the training grounds on the compound, and Nanami went to check out the apothecary shops and the Hospital.
Hashirama went with us to key us into the seals surrounding the place, and I went to town.. even though I only had access to E-B ranks. Hashirama said anything above that would be dangerous without supervision and I kind of agreed with him - I don't want to get myself killed with a giant fire dragon now do I?
Still, even the E-B rank techniques were very plentiful, Wind Release here, Water release there... I spent nearly an hour just memorizing different scrolls with my sharingan before Konan decided to speak with me
"So Jack" she started "You know things about the future correct?" she questioned
I nodded and then hummed "Well not the definite future, but yeah I know of the details surrounding it, why?"
"Well I wanted to know how my techniques worked and how they looked like in the future. I'm pretty sure I have some of them mastered but I don't know for sure" oh so that's what it was
I smiled "Well there was this one technique where you could turn your whole body into paper..."
I ended up explaining multiple times how her future powers looked and my theories on how they worked and what they did. The whole time she was sitting in front of me with a small smile on her face, nodding every so often and humming in understanding. I guess she still liked me, which was pretty cool... What? you expected me to be a dense protag with no knowlege of what a pussy is? what kind of man do you take me for??? freakin assuming things...
It was nearly 8 pm when we finally made it back to our rooms, both of us happy and content with ourselves
It wasn't five seconds after lying on my bed, however, that I groaned
'I'm gonna have to attend the academy again damnit...'
Tomorrow is going to be one of those fucking days...
