-----------------KONOHA HOKAGE'S OFFICE ------------------
Danzo comes to Hokage's office and asks Hiruzen, "why did you allow Mito-sama to leave the village?"
Hiruzen stopped doing his paperwork and looked at the secretary next to him. The secretary left the room and closed the door. Now only Danzo and Hiruzen were present in the room. Hiruzen looks at Danzo, "what do you want to say?"
Danzo sneers, "I am asking why you allowed Mito-sama to leave the village. Did you forget Mito-sama is jinchuriki of Konoha and jinchuriki is a village asset…"
Hiruzen stopped Danzo's speech, "Danzo, jinchuriki might be an asset of the village but don't forget that jinchuriki are also living beings and Konoha's shinobi. I would be glad if you corrected your words before you speak right next time."
Danzo's face becomes red. "I am asking why you allowed Mito-sama to leave the village when the war is just over."
Hiruzen sighed, "This is Mito-sama's will and I have no way to refuse. Does it seem you are forgetting what Mito-sama is capable of? Do you want me to remind you that she can fight with first and second Hokages equally?"
Listening to Hiruzen's words Danzo felt like a fishbone stuck in his throat. He knows even though Mito-sama didn't fight in any of the battles personally, from the first and second Hokage's words, she is capable of fighting on par with them, and under normal circumstances, she can overpower them.
Looking at Danzo's back Hiruzen reminded him, "It seems you are focusing too much on other things. First, take care of Root before focusing on other things."
Danzo paused for a moment before he left the room. Looking at Danzo leaving silently Hiruzen sighs.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
As we reached the Uzushigakure entrance, there were many Uzumaki villagers, waiting for us, or to be precise for grandma Mito. A very old man stood in front of them. Seeing him, grandma Mito walks a little bit faster and reaches out her hand, "Father, I hope you are doing well?"
Grandma Mito's father, also village leader or Uzumaki patriarch, Ashina Uzumaki holds her with one hand and puts another hand on her head, and pats her, "you are looking pretty, child. Come let's go inside."
Another man came and stood next to Ashina-san. Looking at him grandma Mito asked, "How are you, brother?"
He smiled, "good, thank you for coming to my coronation. I am surprised to see you coming."
Grandma Mito also laughed and looked at Tsunade, "come here Tsunade, greet your grand-uncle and great-grandfather."
As Tsunade stood next to grandma Mito, she greeted her, "Hello! Great grandfather, hello! Grand-uncle, I hope your health is good."
Ashina-san laughed, "hohoho… this is the first time meeting you my grandchild. Come here, let me you."
Tsunade came near to him and he lifted her into his hands. "Now I can see clearly, let's go inside, now."
I felt funny looking at Tsunade's embarrassed face and I couldn't stop laughing. I can't laugh now, so I am trying my best by holding back. Tsunade looked at me laughing and tried to hide her face and gave me a threatening expression before shifting her face away.
After that, we rested for a day, and the next day morning Kiyoshi-san informed me, "Hirata, this is Mito-sama's order. Starting today, you and Tsunade are going to attend special classes during your stay here and the class is going to start at 10:00 am. So, get ready for classes."
At 9:55 am Hirata along with Tsunade headed to the venue which is an open area that can accommodate more than one thousand people and by now the entire venue is filled. It seems the whole Uzumaki clan is present in this venue at this moment. Soon we found a pair of seats and settled down.
Next to me, a 25-year-old Uzumaki is sitting. I want to know about the class topic and teacher before class starts.
I asked him politely, "Hello sir!"
He looked at me and smiled, "yes."
I extended my hand, "I am Hirata Senju, a chunin from Konoha, part of the Mito-sama escort team."
He shook my hand, "hello! I am Arata Uzumaki, an Uzushigakure jonin. Nice to meet you."
Tsunade exchanged greetings with him after and then I continued, "We were ordered to attend classes, but we don't know anything about it. Can you give us a head start about today's class and teacher?"
Arata nodded, "as you can see almost all of the clan members were present for today's class including elders and the patriarch. Akira Uzumaki, a senior member of the Uzumaki clan, is teaching this special class. He is the oldest living Uzumaki at present. During his time and possibly even today, he was the best fuinjutsu user of Uzumaki. For the past few years, he has secluded himself from the clan. A few days ago, he came out of seclusion and announced he would be attending a special class today.
I have to say you were very lucky to be able to attend this class. Do you know all elders were also attending this class by Akira-sama thought they were blessed, because this may be his last class of him?"
Arata becomes more excited as he keeps talking about him. It's the same as me talking about legendary characters I like. Listening to him, I found another untold legend of the Naruto world.
Soon it's 10:00 am, and an old man with a walking stick slowly comes to the stage; his entire body is shaking due to age. From children to the elderly, people of all ages were waiting for him in the arena.
"Thank you for coming to this old man's class, I am Akira Uzumaki. This class is my last interaction session to share my knowledge with everyone. So, please bear with me for the next few days."
He spoke slowly, but I could hear his voice as if he were speaking near my ears. When I looked at Tsunade, she had the same expression as me, and I looked at other people as well. The expression on everyone's face is the same as mine. Now I am sure everyone was bewildered along with me.
After looking at everyone, the teacher paused for a moment to calm down. Despite everyone's shock and confusion, they kept silent and looked at the teacher to continue, except for the kids who were silenced by adults.
Akira Uzumaki smiled, "most people know about the basics of fuinjutsu, but since kids were also present today, I will start with the basics. Fuinjutsu is a language. Most people know what language is.
When the teacher passed, everyone answered, "yes"
He looked at everyone, "language is a way of communication between two beings. It can be any type of language. Fuinjutsu is also a language used by fuinjutsu users to communicate with chakra to obtain the desired result. This language is sign language. It has two types of signs, a hand sign, and a character or fuins. Every ninja is familiar with hand signs and uses fuinjutsu in their daily life.
Adding different fuins together will behave differently. It's similar to grouping language characters together to form words, and different combinations of characters to form different words.
To use fuinjutsu, a ninja doesn't necessarily need to master fuinjutsu. All you need is to know how to activate the jutsu inscribed into a scroll. Fuinjutsu is faster, simple, and can perform complex operations. Fuinjutsu applications were simply infinite.
The drawback of fuinjutsu is the complexity of jutsu itself, the special ink to inscribe, extreme chakra control, and the time-consuming process. So, not many people can learn. Us Uzumaki clan possesses a special constitution that supports fuinjutsu and in Uzumaki females, it can manifest into "Adamantine Sealing Chains". But never look down on the enemy. Even though we are the most proficient in fuinjutsu that doesn't mean others can't be better."
Next, a fuinjutsu was pasted on board.
"Everyone knows "Enclosing Jutsu" and "Unsealing Jutsu". This jutsu is used to seal any object into a piece of paper. For beginners observe the difference in the jutsu after executing."
He took a kunai and sealed it into the sealing jutsu. The blank space in the sealing jutsu is marked with a kunai shape.
As the class progressed, the teacher, Akira Uzumaki, revealed more complex and sophisticated knowledge about fuinjutsu. During class, Tsunade fell asleep with her head resting on my shoulder. One of Tsunade's bad habits is sleeping during class. Normally she is lazy and doesn't want to focus, but she is sharp enough to grasp what she wants to learn.
We finished class that day, and the next five days were like workshops where we learned on our own. Even though they refer to it as a workshop, it is essentially self-study. Our instructors were seniors who were free or willing to teach.
After coming into this world and starting to learn fuinjutsu, I desired to develop gravity seals to replace physical weights. However, gravity seals are much more complex to learn or develop since the concept is complicated. In the entire Naruto series, people with Rinnegan were able to control gravity freely with a wave of a hand and Onoki's "Earth Style: Super Weighted Boulder Jutsu" which adds weight using earth release.
I am planning to use "Earth Style: Super Weighted Boulder Jutsu" as a model for my new jutsu. But that's when a problem arises, I don't know "Earth Style: Super Weighted Boulder Jutsu" nor how it works. I spent the entire day surfing through various books in the library and I found some related content that explains the concept of gravity seals.
The next two days I spent developing a working jutsu model. My goal is to develop a fuinjutsu that can inscribe onto a five-centimeter-sized rock so that I can use it as a base for my projectile jutsu which is still a concept for now.
On my fourth day, I developed proper fuinjutsu, fuinjutsu: gravity seal. This technique has two versions. In one version, the user can add weight, while in another, the weight can be reduced. To study their workings and limitations in real time, I tested them on rocks.
After a few tests and observations, "fuinjutsu: gravity seal" is working properly and I am in heaven. But it can increase the weight of rock by ten times and last for half an hour. Another limitation is that you can only increase or decrease the weight, not both at once.
I looked for Tsunade who is with grandma Mito right now. I stood near them but kept silent since others were also present. Mito and Tsunade stared at me when I arrived, though Tsunade wanted to ask, "what?" looking at my glowing face, but remained silent since we were in the presence of the elders.
But grandma Mito waved at me to come close. I slowly and silently walked to grandma Mito. She looked at my glowing face, though I am currently hiding my happiness as if holding an exploding volcano in my heart. However, she still found out.
"Now, tell me?"
I looked at other elders. In response to my hesitation, grandma Mito said, "don't worry, they were also wondering why you were here. So, now tell us why you are here?"
I took a light breath and looked at grandma Mito, "I developed this jutsu, please look at it, grandma."
I gave the scroll to grandma. She opened it and looked at it while others were peeking at it. After two minutes everyone was surprised and glanced at me and then at the seal again. So I won't have to explain everything from the beginning since this scroll has my observations.
Grandma Mito looked at her father Ashina Uzumaki and he nodded at her in return. Ashina Uzumaki looked at me seriously, "Hirata Senju, can you explain the references for this jutsu?"
"Sir, I referred to a few books in the library and used the concept of "Earth Style: Super Weighted Boulder Jutsu". Simply it is a fuinjutsu version of "Earth Style: Super Weighted Boulder Jutsu""
Everyone nodded and accepted that "fuinjutsu: gravity seal" is a fuinjutsu version of ninjutsu "Earth Style: Super Weighted Boulder Jutsu". Then Ashina-san said, "Hirata boy, this is certainly a revised version of the gravity seal, and it is your version too.". So tell us what inspired you to develop this jutsu."
"I want to develop a jutsu that replaces physical weights. I tried a few times but the results were not up to the mark."
