'H-huh?' I slowly opened my eyes as I saw a very bright light that flashed towards my eyes.
I groggily sat up and suddenly, flashes of memories overcame my mind as I remember my mother-
"Mom! Fuck!" I shouted as I got out of the bed but was stopped by two anbus who were watching me.
Of course I knew they were watching me.
"Please calm down Itsuki Nara." an anbu that had a dog mask ordered me and nodded at the other anbu who then shunshinned out.
I looked at the hole on his mask and calmed down for bit. "What about my mother? Did she survive?"
Of course she didn't, I saw her body being smashed by a boulder.
"Please wait for a doctor and we will tell you the details."
I paused for a moment and nodded, going back to the bed and just sat in it. My body had bandages on it, the fuck? I just suffered chakra exhaustion, I didn't even have any injuries.
I studied medical arts, I know.
Not a minute later, the door opened and a man who wore a hat that the fire kanji on it went inside. 'Interesting, what would the hokage need with a child like me?'
"Hokage-sama!" I tried to stand up and bow but the kage just held his hand to stop me.
"No need to bow little Itsuki, just relax. I have something to tell you in person." He said wjile I nodded in response, I knew what he had to say.
But what's on my mind right now is that, where's my father? I can't sense his chakra anywhere in the village. Did the hokage send him on a mission?
"Unfortunately... your parents did not make it out alive after what happened. Your mother's body was found below a boulder, and your father died defending the village. Both of their bodies are now at their respected clan compounds." The hokage sighed and my eyes widened a little bit.
Of course this man knows, he knows the village like the back of his hands. Or does he?
"W-when is the burial for both of them?" I asked, I was trying my best not to cry right now.
Having the same brain I have doesn't ease my feelings that both my parents died, I'm 3 for fuck's sake.
"Your mother's burial ceremony will be held two days from now in the morning, your father's in the afternoon." The hokage explained as he placed his hand on top of my head. "I'm very sorry for your loss, I'm sorry you had to experience these kinds of things in such a young age."
Tears were flowing our of my eyes, I'm not trying to fight it. If I do, I'll just become unstable in the future. I have to accept that they are gone. "Thank you hokage-sama, I'm sorry you had to deal with a child crying."
Sarutobi couldn't help but a tear fell from the corner of his eye. His wife was no longer living, his successor, Kushina and many more. And now, a child lost everything he had at such a young age.
My crying got heavier as the Hokage hugged me, I knew this world was cruel.
I'll get strong... Stronger so that I won't lose anyone I love. I don't want to feel powerless when facing someone strong.
Power, yes power. I need power.
Days past and I attended both my parents' funeral, although I sneaked and acted as an Uchiha on my father's burial ceremony. I shedded tears, I cried as much as I can so that I will no longer cry in the future.
Currently, I'm sitting on the head of the Nidaime Hokage. I knew where the kyuubi went, it was sealed inside the sone of the Yondaime. I can't blame the newborn baby, but when the kyuubi gets out of its seal, it will pay.
As I dazed off while watching the village, an old man walked towards me. I sensed him the moment he layed his eyes on me, Danzo. I knew this man, my father always told me when I grow up, never ever trust this man. Uchihas always avoid this mummified man because they knew he was responsible for the many deaths of their kinsmen.
And I always sense many hidden shinobi near my clan compound, like the shinobis hiding right now.
"The village is really wonderful to watch, ain't thay right Itsuki Nara."
I nodded and feigned a smile. "It is, whonare you old man?"
The old man just looked at me. "I am Danzo Shimura, I'm looking for people with potential to protect this village."
'Oh, so he's one of those people who wants everything for themselves but gives a reason to hide that fact.' I thought as I looked towards him. "And who are those?"
Danzo just smirked thinking that I bit his bait. "You, I sense a hidden potential hidden within you. Do you want to join me in protecting this village?"
I thought for a bit, 'Hmm... If I join this man, I will be branded with a seal. But I'm a seal master, I can even break and understand seals made from Uzumakis. Hehe, this will be the easiest way for me to get stronger.'
I nodded and accepted his offer. "I'll join you, please help me get stronger to protect this village."
Danzo: 'Easy'
I inwardly smirked darkly, 'Easy.'
After our exchange if words, Danzo placed his hand on my shoulder and shunshinned us to a dark place with so many weak chakra signatures. 'Hmm... So this is his hideout, I know for a fact that the Hokage doesn't know of this'
"This is the headquarters and where you will be trained by strong shinobis, we protect the village from the shadows. We are root." Danzo held both of his arms wide, showing me his 'glorious' place.
'Root huh, I'll use you to get stronger Shimura. And if I find you useless, I'll get rid of you and takeover your organization.' I thought darkly as I followed him everywhere he led me for the tour.
"Now, please hold your tongue out. This is so that our secrets will be just that, secrets." Danzo performed several hand seals as I held my tongue out.
Chakra formed in his fingers and touched my tongue. "Fuin!"
'Ugh!' Fuck, it stings! But I should not show any weakness here, just you wait danzo. I'm gonna break you soon.
Wait a minute, did I just have psychological tendency?
Nah, I'm completely normal.
Right?
