--POV Bird--
It has been a few weeks now since I've been sent on the mission to retrieve the Uzumaki child for Raiden.
It's your basic kidnap mission that I've done plenty of times before so I should be able to get back before too long.
Entering Kusa through the use of a hidden tunnel, I make my way to my first destination.
The Shinobi Hospital.
I'm still not sure why civilian and shinobi hospitals are completely different buildings for each hidden village but who am I to question things.
Getting into the hospital using my [Chameleon Cloak ninjutsu]
'Room 69.' I think to myself as I search for the room number.
After finding the room I wait for a shinobi to come close before putting the guy in a genjutsu increasing his blood lust. The shinobi with no mercy at all with a mad face the guy runs into the room and starts to slaughter a few shinobi who are getting themselves healed.
"HELP!" A woman shouts in fear.
This was one of the targets.
Sumiko Uzumaki.
Under the genjutsu, the man didn't murder the Uzumaki but slashed vertically on the stomach. It's not a deep wound but it easily be exaggerated with the blood I'm gonna smear everywhere. Getting up so her, my medical ninjutsu stabilizes all the injuries.
Taking off her tattered clothes, I do some hand signs and use [Fire Release: Great Fire Ball].
Inside the room was now charred in half and her half-burned clothes were on the floor.
Grabbing her body, my genjutsu persists as the shinobi guy wreaks havoc.
Making my way out of the hospital I enter a small house with a single kitchen that has one stone bed with two chairs next to a table near a pantry.
Walking up to the stone bed, I proceeded to put the body of Sumiko Uzumaki while pulling a blanket over it. Taking a needle most commonly used by medical ninjas, I put her in a near-death state to incur rage from the little girl.
--POV Karin--
What a steal!
Today I was able to find some bread for under the price range which is extremely rare and the guy who sold it didn't increase the price when I asked to buy it.
Walking home using the natural cover to hide myself as I don't want any trouble.
'Mama would like some nice bread with butter right after work no?'
Now at home, I enter the door to see the bed with a person's body outlined with the blanket.
'Guess Mama is tired today.'
Walking up to the bed I start to see a bit of red on top of the Blanket making me panic.
'Is mama injured?' I tell myself worried.
But I kept it to myself.
I kept tapping mama's shoulder for a while but she didn't respond and after a while I got worried and removed the blanket.
And what I saw would stay with me for the rest of my life.
A huge axe was cut in the middle of her belly with a few more on her hands.
"Why...why...why is this happening to me!" I practically screech out crying seeing the bloody wounds on my mother's body.
'She's not dead.' I think to myself just praying that this is all a dream.
Tapping her shoulder a few times and calling out to Mama for a few minutes I finally stopped and looked lifelessly on the floor.
"First Papa and now they kill off Mama, I don't know what to d-." But before I could speak another word my consciousness started to drift off.
In front of me while I helplessly watched, was Mama in the hospital.
'Why can't I move.' I groggily thought.
Not before long while stuck, a man with a dazed expression entered. Holding an axe he had blood splattered all over his body.
I watched.
As mother screamed terrified.
The man without hesitation lunged at Mother and slashed at her chest. Blood started to seep out as there was nothing I could do. I couldn't close my eyes, I was forced to watch my mother get hurt and bleed out.
'I WILL KILL HIM... I WILL KILL THIS VILLAGE.' My thoughts burned with uncontrollable rage.
--POV Raiden--
Pizza!
To be specific a Pizza with a crunchy crust with sliced chicken bits and ham as the toppings.
Pretty delicious I'd say, Kakashi would say the same too.
I was able to get some servants to make a makeshift oven. Getting five flat bricks with a decent amount of surface area.
Two on the side with one in the middle making an H.
Then putting another on the top as a cover while putting the last piece of brick on the back to cover one side.
Put some fire under it and bam.
Oven!
Surprisingly when I wanted to make the pizza there were already different types of cheeses I could use which was nice.
One of my plans I will integrate in the future is to make a pizzeria and sometimes when I feel like it if friends visit, will cook a pizza for them like if Choji and Shikamaru.
It will be a staple in Konoha with my support while making loads of money of course!
...
It's currently the afternoon as I am playing against Kakashi in the game "I made" called chess.
There are quite a lot of things for me to "invent" despite my lack of knowledge.
This game takes me quite a while back in my past life as it was one of the first things I was passionate about when I was younger I would always try to beat my father who was pretty good at chess.
Back when I was still on earth there was a trend in chess for a little bit on which I started to play again after not trying it out in a while, and with a few weeks of racking my brain cells together I was able to get a rating of 1800 peak.
Which is like alright I guess.
One of the many things I will be introducing to this world will be chess as it's something I enjoy.
Another thing I want to add is a trading card game.
To be more specific, collectible cards with drawings of famous shinobi on them.
Can't really do other card games from my world as I don't remember enough shit to make a deck or two.
"Checkmate," I say with a grin plastered on my face as Kakashi loses for the third time today.
"Bruh." He responds with a deadpan expression.
Packing up the board I start to make my way to the training ground as I will be meeting my first subordinate.
Kabuto Yakushi.
I basically got his whole fucking profile on me so I practically know him more than he knows himself, which might be a stretch but I know his "family's" background more if it makes more sense.
More information on top of what I'm able to remember from Cannon which is helpful.
Surprisingly or unsurprisingly because of his age, he was still a recruit. Barely even in the middle of training camp which from memory makes them team up with another kid.
From Sai in Naruto Shippuden, it's shown that the kids who partner up eventually have to kill each other. Which is probably what was meant to happen if my interference never happened with the medical prodigy.
I've also just realised in a months time I should be able to get my chakra kunai, you might think that it shouldn't take that much time to make and you're right.
But there are only a few people in Konoha who can make custom chakra metal items and with him being always busy with orders I can't really complain as money won't persuade him to do it for me with a priority anyway.
Entering the training field I spot two people out in the open.
One person who is currently standing up with a sloth mask and with a frame the size of an adult I assume to be a root shinobi.
The other guy is a kid who looks to be around 10 years old with grey hair.
That's my guy!
I guess he's quite unassuming for his age, kind of like Sai with the haircut and everything but just a little longer hair that sort of spikes. He had some glasses that completed the original fit the Kabuto in the anime had.
Looking into his eyes there was a hint of determination?
Satisfied with Danzo's pick, I started to walk over waving at the two of them.
Signalling for Sloth to go, I start to introduce myself as I get closer to Kabuto.
"Hello man, my name is Raiden Shimura your new master!" I say enthusiastically while observing his facial expressions.
Kabuto hearing my reaction proceeds to bow down and introduce himself with a calm but happy face.
"Hello Shimura-sama my name is Kabuto Yakushi and I'm looking forward to serving my new master." He says in a small introduction.
Nodding to myself while rubbing my chin, I was a little impressed by the guy. His medical knowledge was already far beyond what someone his age normally knows. In his profile Kabuto was a reserved kid who when given the opportunity comes out of his shell.
So his needs are just some encouragement.
Kabuto who saw my stare started to fiddle a little with his hands, unsure about the awkward silence.
Deciding to break it, I speak my thoughts.
"I like a smart and diligent servant who doesn't act like a robot. I wont restrict you much so don't worry about being too stiff in front of me." I tell him as I start to walk towards the training targets.
Kabuto nodding to my words starts to follow me.
"I'll give you a week to learn all the essential skills like cooking and cleaning so you can get used to the environment more. Don't worry though you will get paid and have your own free time, but this will only be on days I won't need you as per the rules of an heir. I must have at least one guard at all times unless I'm in the academy."
Although I'm not sure if the grey-haired kid would count as a bodyguard.
Right now a flesh shield with peak academy combat prowess.
Making it to the green fields with stumps with multiple targets I grab a set of kunai and throw all three at once to hit three bullseyes at once.
"Thump...thump...thump!" The noise of the kunais cleanly hitting the targets can be heard as Asashi swallows a mouth full of saliva with sweat dripping down his face.
"You aren't stronger than me and probably never will be but you are still a person with the potential, don't disappoint me... As long as you do as I say I will reward you with money, power, I mean you name it."
Kabuto who heard this had a glint in his eyes.
It seems there was something obvious he wanted to do.
"Speak your mind..." I say squinting my eyes.
"U-Um Shimura-sama, is it alright if I visit the Orphanage... It's my only request!"
Hearing the desperation of his voice towards the end I tilt my head in thought. While I don't want to make him a mindless soldier, it wouldn't be good to accept all his requests just because he wanted it.
'That's it'
"Hmmm, maybe once you become a Chunin I'll let you go there as long as we aren't busy. For now though you will be stuck with me, training." Those words were like a bright light reaching out to the kid as he exaggeratedly nods.
Is his brain ok in there...
I've done a lot of talking but I'm pretty sure my message has been clear to him as I know he isn't someone stupid. The documents I have gotten state that he is someone with an advanced intellect but still somewhat naive.
'If you show your value and be loyal I'll treat you with kindness and give you what.' Is the basic message I'm sending him here and with the situation he's in he should know this.
--POV Kabuto Yakushi--
Hearing the three kunai sail across the air as they hit each target perfectly in the centre, I gulp in my saliva.
"Thump...thump...thump!"
'Damn Sloth wasn't kidding when he said that master is a prodigy. I was the best at shurikenjutsu at the root camp. But I'm still behind Shimura-sama.' I think to myself nervously
While being younger on top of that.
"You aren't stronger than me and probably never will be but you are still a person with the potential to become strong. As long as you do as I say I will reward you with money, power, I mean you name it."
Hearing this my fists clenched, the opportunity was there to ask.
I'm finally in Konoha!
"Speak your mind..." He says trailing off at the end.
"U-Um Shimura-sama, is it alright if I visit the Orphanage..."
"It's my only request!" I hurriedly added in the end not wanting to make him mad.
"Once you become a Chunin I'll let you go there as much as you want. For now, though you will be stuck with me, training."
A huge smile adorned my face as I couldn't hide the excitement.
Becoming a Chunin?
I'd do it even if becoming a Joann was the requirement!
Master walking up to me hands me a schedule which I grab out of his hands after a few seconds.
