Title: Hatake Clan
~~~
Hatake Clan. A special clan in the Shinobi world that wasn't made mention of particularly except for two people who were lauded to be geniuses.
The only reason why I currently find them peculiar is that, they possessed a natural white hair.
Colours like white, gold, silver, and red are usually mentioned in the same line as special individuals and that's the reason I'm here.
Even in the Naruto anime, Jiraya was also white haired and he was someone worth my admiration back then Shen I watched him and now that I'm in this world. Though his time hasn't come yet, considering the world I'm living in now, he really deserved to be called Jiraya the Gallant.
Back to the Hatake Clan, after a careful observation from the Mirror Dimension, I came to the conclusion that they weren't anything special except for the weird amount of spiritual energy gathered on their daevic eye.
Whether it was humans, or perhaps even animals, there was a natural hollow between their eyebrows where the third eye was hidden. That was the Daevic eye, or Third eye in lay man terms.
This third eye was located at the forebrain and is known in the Hindu and Chinese mythology as the Upper Dantian. If one could open this eye, they could gain the power to see through all mysteries and obtain unparalleled perception.
That's good and all and I can attest to that but in the case of the Hatake Clan, their perception was indeed unparalleled, at least from what I could gather.
Their chakra capacity was low, low as compared to the clans that actually matter.
In a way, they were peak civilian level clan.
This is the term I came up with for clan that don't have any specialty like the Sarutobi, Shimura and other clans like that. Clans like the Inuzuka, Yamanaka, Nara, Akimichi and others like that would be under the special level clans. The peak five clans will retain their ancient clan title for me.
So. The Hatake Clan had a good amount of chakra for the civilian level clan and that's what intriguing about them. Unlike the other special clans, the Hatake Clan had no specialty except their genius, which means they had the most potential in terms of diversity.
I could almost see numerous versions of myself in them but alas, a genius such as myself is hard to come by.
To put it simple in cultivation terms, they had no spirit root and only had high comprehensive abilities.
People with no spirit root have it tough in the beginning but when they rise, they have the option of picking a branch to focus on. At that time, their potential skyrocket.
This could be evidenced from the case of both Sakumo and Kakashi. Although they're still far off in the future, I could use them to make a comparison.
Sakumo was said to be even stronger than the Sanins but maybe Kishimoto didn't see much value in him, he had him die for the 'plot'.
Kakashi's case is evident but that isn't why I am here. After a while gathering some basic information, I went to the periphery of the clan compound and came out of the mirror dimension.
This time, I decided to go alone. As I always do when walking around with the girls over this couple years, I release my chakra to cover a wide area around me where the Amygdala of everyone in this space is suppressed.
The amygdala is the part of the brain located in the center that works as a sensor for fear. Basically, it perceives fear and transmit it to the brain.
By doing this, I prevent any unsavoury events that may lead to any of the girls annihilating a portion of the Shinobi world and forever altering the course of the world.
This way, anyone who sees me would still perceive the threat I pose but will instead convert it to amicability. Fancy trick I learnt from Velda.
His mere presence should cause the Archangels to feel dread toward him like how they do toward me but with a little biological and energy manipulation we both could appear as a friendly neighbor next door.
"Halt. State your business in the clan compound." The guard stationed outside the clan gates shouted and brought me out of my thought.
Putting on an amicable smile, I said. "Pardon me for my intrusion little friend but may I ask you to let your clan head know that someone is here to meet him?"
The guard looked at me with a weird gaze but shook his head after looking me up and down before muttering, "who amongst us is the little one here."
Ah... I still had my teenage look so he must have felt offended at me calling him little friend. Maybe j should maintain an early twenties look after this.
"Sorry if you feel insulted, friend, but could you relay message?" I repeated again, this time, I released a slight portion of my aura. This was the aura I usually had back then as a general, although for a short time, I can possibly forget the experience.
The guard stiffened slightly before nodding and heading inside, leaving me under the sun, I didn't know whether to feel insulted at the guards lack of courtesy of just take it as the Tengoku clan being more advanced in things of etiquette.
Shortly after the guard went in, he came back and invited me into the clan to which I entered as if I owned the place.
I already knew almost every nook and cranny of the clan compound from earlier as I was in the mirror dimension so I didn't look odd whatsoever.
It didn't take long before I was brought to a normal looking building at the center of the compound. This building was of course the clan's hall and this time, there was only the clan head waiting for me.
The clan head of the Hatake Clan looked quite young and looking at him, I could almost swear I was looking at a possible variation of me. The only difference was his brown eyes instead of red. He was quite the handsome fellow.
After some causal greetings, I got to down to business as I introduced the concept of saving his clans property and money with me for a price to be withdrawn anytime of their choice from any of the locations of our banks.
It took more time to convince the fella as he wasn't that much smarter as I would have hoped although he was intelligent enough to understand the prospect this presented.
In next to no time, he signed the paper I presented to him and when I asked if he wasn't asking for the opinion of his clan members, he said. "I'm the patriarch and my word is law, that all there is to it." In an arrogant yet humble manner.
Gotta hand it to him, he did have the aura of an unquestionable ruler... On a small scale though. Wonder how he'll look if he's to be exposed to a larger stage.
Mah... I do plan on taking the genetic make up of all the clans I can get my hands on and creating larger clans of their kind in my Universe after all. I wonder what kind of clan ability I would give the Hatake Clan.
High Comprehension and Analytical Skills only below the Godfiend Clan?
Oh, the Godfiend Clan is the clan I have in mind to create as the prime clan of my universe. Something like the ancient race or something. Or maybe name it the Blessed Star Clan?
Meh... That's for later.
After the paper was signed, I gave him a wooden card I specifically made on the spot for him and said. "Pour in your chakra and say your name, age, and clan."
"Alright." He said and did as I said.
I nodded and then stood up and said. "With that, you can directly deposit anything of value you want saved and it'll be automatically reflected on the card. Why don't you try it out?"
"Hmm..." He said and then seemed to think for a while before going to a corner of the room and pulled out a bunch of Ryo Notes and then placed it on the card.
Nothing happened and be looked at it in confusion before giving me a confused look.
I almost had the urge to facepalm at this but my smile didn't leave as I said. "Pour in your chakra into the card and then touch whatever you want to save."
"Oh... Ok." He smiled sheepishly before doing as I said. Immediately the bunch of Ryo Notes vanished which startled him for a while before his eyes widened.
"As you've seen, the amount you put in the card is reflected on the card and with an intention of your will, you can withdraw it too. No one can steal it from you. There's also demarcation for next of kin so you just have to put in the persons name, that's if it's a private... You know what? I'll send someone to fill you in on the necessary things to know." I said.
After that, I bade my farewell, and went on to the next clan on my agenda.
I wondered how the girls are doing, especially Hinami, her first place of assignment is the Hyuga clan after all, I wonder if they're as stuck up as they are in the Canon.
---
Hinami's POV.
To say that I'm very angry would be an understatement. I think the word to use in this situation hasn't even been made yet.
Of all places, Shun had to send me to this place that are made up of total fools and asses like Shun would call people like them.
But for him to send me here... Arghhh!!
Deep breath Nami, deep breaths. It'll come and go. It'll all pass. Just have to use this new technique Shun developed and then go in, talk some stuff, come out.
I already have the several documents from Shun and Kaguya, and damn do the work fast. I haven't even begun on this 'Hyuga' clan as they like to call themselves now.
Hyuga, what kind of bullshit name is that? Damn it, Nami, you're even cursing now?
But still what kind of name is that?
Brother Ashura's clan took the Senju from Senjutsu and Brother Indra took theirs from their innate desire to cause violence. Sigh, I do feel sad for Mayuki for giving birth to these kind of people but sigh...
I wonder if we'll ever meet again.
Anyways, What's with giving themselves a name that symbolises 'A place where the sun shines.' and yet gives off this eerie atmosphere.
Isn't a place where the sun shines meant to be bright, warm, and welcoming?
Sigh, I feel like I'm about to lose some brain cells if I continue thinking about this.
Shun did say that not everyone in the main branch is stuck up and not everyone in the branch clan are pushovers, maybe I should go all Ninja like Shun usually does and see it for myself.
With a step, space cracked like a mirror and spread all over and with another step, she disappeared in the mirror dimension and walked into the clan.
Although, and could have used her divine sense to sweep the entire clan compound and learn all she needed to learn, she still wanted to see it for herself.
Deep down, she still had this sliver of hope that what Shun said was true and not everyone in the clan were fools with an ego.
