"It's time."
"Yes, indeed. Let's start this party."
"Alright, let's begin."
"From now on, things will be fun."
"Let's make it grand."
Various shadows conversed in the darkness of the forest; each one identical, clad in black suits with red patterns. The darkness enveloped each figure.
"Hihi, Hokage-sama, this is not something you can refuse."
With a wicked smile, the figures were swallowed by the darkness.
"Hokage-sama, Yuki Uchiha wants to see you."
While working on a pile of documents, the Hokage raised an eyebrow at his assistant.
"Yuki? What does the boy want this time? Is he with Tsunade?"
"No, he's alone. He said he has an important message that only you should hear."
Shaking his head, the Jonin replied.
Hiruzen lost himself in thoughts; he didn't want to see the boy. This child was a headache, and if not for being Tsunade's godson, he would have taught him a lesson by now.
Sighing, Hiruzen thought it wouldn't be a bad idea to see him; if it's an important message, regardless of the boy's character, he has to listen.
"Alright, let him in."
"Yes, Hokage-sama."
As the Jonin followed orders and left, Hiruzen blew smoke from his pipe.
(Will be a short break), looking at the pile of documents, Hiruzen thought it might not be so bad.
However, he didn't know that facing that paperwork was better than talking to the boy.
"Good morning, Hokage-sama," bowing slightly, a handsome boy with an eye patch entered. Hiruzen looked at the boy who made his life difficult.
"Oh? Yuki, what do you want?"
Hiruzen didn't want to waste time with the boy. Blowing pipe smoke, he urged him to speak.
"Hihihi, you see, Hokage-sama, I have a small request."
"Wasn't it an important message? Yuki, you..."
Before he could finish, something incredible happened.
*Bang
The sound of a gunshot echoed in the office. The Jonin accompanying Yuki fell, blood quickly staining the floor, a deep wound in his heart.
Hiruzen's eyes widened at this.
"Hokage-sama" x3
Quickly, three Anbu hunters emerged from the darkness, surrounding Hiruzen.
"Hihi, Nee~ Hokage-sama, it's a very important request," Yuki said with a cruel smile on his face.
"Yuki Uchiha! WHAT HAVE YOU DONE?! IS HE DEAD?! You killed him!"
"Maa~ it's not that bad, Hokage-sama... After all, ninjas die someday."
Hiruzen looked at the boy in front of him, saw a deep darkness in his eyes; the boy had activated the mature Sharingan. Hiruzen was a bit surprised; the boy had a mature Sharingan.
"Yuki, you..."
"Well, why don't we get down to business?"
However, before he finished speaking, something flashed on his neck—a kunai.
"Don't move."
Appearing behind Yuki was an Anbu hunter with white hair and a fox mask.
"Hihihi, as expected from an Anbu hunter. And to think there was a fourth."
Despite having a kunai at his neck, Yuki was calm. The Anbu hunter frowned at this.
"I've heard of you, big brother. Are you the ninja who copies? The one with the Sharingan!"
Turning his head a bit, Yuki looked at him with a smile.
There was something wrong with that smile; the Anbu hunter felt it. It was too calm, too unsettling.
"Enough, Yuki! You've gone too far. Assassinating a ninja in the Hokage's office is a serious crime."
Shaking his head, Hiruzen looked at the boy.
"This time, not even Tsunade can help you."
"But she doesn't have to help me, Hokage-sama. After all, you'll let me go and won't tell anyone about this."
Hiruzen frowned; he had a very bad feeling.
"What do you mean?"
"Maa~ you see, Hokage-sama, I have a little hobby. In my free time, I love to eat, and sometimes I discover many things in the process."
Pausing, Yuki put a finger on his lips.
"Don't move!" The kunai at his neck tightened, letting out some blood.
"Come on, big brother, don't be so nervous. After all, I'm not hungry now, right, guys?"
With those words, several white arms emerged from the ground, binding him.
"Clones?"
"Close, but you're mistaken."
Hiruzen was surprised; several clones appeared in his office. He didn't know what jutsu this was, but he had to admit they caught him off guard.
"Hump! No, don't underestimate us, kid. You're not the only one with clones."
"I'd appreciate it if you stayed still, Mr. Hunter. After all, it will be troublesome if you don't."
[Toki Hami no Shiro]
A huge shadow began to emerge from Yuki, instantly covering the office.
"What? Another jutsu?"
[Zafkiel]
Appearing behind Yuki, a huge ancient golden clock.
Hiruzen, who was watching all this, couldn't help but widen his eyes; the eye patch had disappeared, revealing a golden eye with a clock in it. The clock's hands began to move, and Yuki's attire changed.
[Aleph]
*Bang
Pointing his spark gun at his head, Yuki pulled the trigger.
Seeing this, the Anbu hunters, of course, wouldn't stand idly by. As they prepared to counterattack and escape with the Hokage, their bodies began to feel heavy, while several white hands emerged simultaneously. Seeing this, they jumped to dodge, but.
*Bang Bang, Bang
However, they received several incredible impacts to their bodies.
"Argh!"
In less than a second, their bodies fell to the ground, and white hands immobilized them.
"Hihihi, it's better if you don't move," Yuki said, appearing behind the Anbu hunters. He had shot his gun at a terrifying speed.
Several clones quickly approached, placing their weapons at their heads.
"Don't move, Mr. Hunter. My hand might slip, after all, hihihi."
Hiruzen looked at his defeated hunters in seconds. The speed shown by Yuki was terrifying.
(Teleportation? No, it's not that.)
Thinking about the terrifying speed shown by the boy, Hiruzen remembered a certain jutsu capable of it, but even that jutsu had its limitations.
(Speed, strength, barrier... This is troublesome.)
Thinking deeply, Hiruzen looked cautiously at the boy.
(If he can keep up with that speed...)
"I appreciate your cooperation by not intervening, Hokage-sama," Yuki said with a slight bow.
Hiruzen looked around; there were more than 15 clones in the office, 10 of them pointing a strange weapon at him. Despite that, he took the boy seriously.
(However... this feeling.)
"Well,Now it's your turn, Hokage-sama."
Aiming his weapon, Yuki prepared to pull the trigger.
*Puchi
*Squeak
However, a hand pierced through his body, electrified and producing a sound like a thousand birds.
Looking at his bloodied abdomen, Yuki turned his gaze.
There stood the Anbu hunter with white hair and a fox mask.
Turning his gaze, there was another Anbu hunter with the same white hair and fox mask.
*Squeak
After a slight squeak, the Anbu hunter disappeared, electrocuting the white hands.
"A Shadow Clone Lightning Shroud?... As expected from you, Mr. Hunter. Living up to your reputation."
Despite having a hole in his body, Yuki kept talking as if none of this concerned him, though blood spilled from his mouth in the process.
The Anbu hunter and Hiruzen frowned at this.
"But Mr. Hunter, let me tell you a secret... You know, this barrier is my special jutsu, so it has several small functions. For example, don't you feel weaker with every passing second?"
This was true; with each passing second in the barrier, the fatigue became stronger.
"You're draining our chakra!"
*Applause
"Exactly! As expected from a Sharingan user; you noticed it instantly."
Even with a smile on his face, Yuki applauded for this. The Anbu hunter's jutsu had ended, revealing his blood-covered hand.
"While I'd love to keep chatting with you, Mr. Hunter, my time is up."
With a final smile, Yuki fell to the ground in blood. The hunter looked at this in confusion.
*Puchi
*Squeak
"So please, this is my last warning, Mr. Hunter. Don't move."
A hand pierced through the right shoulder of the hunter, electrified.
Seeing this, the hunter had a deja vu.
Behind him, Yuki appeared, unharmed. The hunter opened his eyes wide at this sight.
(Is it a Genjutsu?! No, that's impossible!)
However, he was also surprised by something else.
(This... this is Raikiri!)
That jutsu was terribly familiar to the hunter.
Feeling his surprise, Yuki smiled.
"Please, don't be so surprised, Mr. Hunter. After all, you're not the only one who copies jutsu."
After finishing his jutsu, several white hands appeared, binding the hunter. Another clone materialized, aiming a gun at his head.
(I didn't feel his chakra?!... I understand, it's a trap!)
The hunter looked at the smiling clone; it was a cruel smile.
"Please, don't look like that, Mr. Hunter. After all, it would be problematic if the mouse didn't come out of its hole."
Aiming at the Hokage, deliberately showing his back, ensuring his clones wouldn't act, everything was a trap to force the Anbu hunter to reveal himself.
Given the nature of the Anbu hunter, it was impossible for him not to act. Predicting his actions at this level was terrifying.
(This kid is frightening!... But what about the other body?)
"Well, the games are over."
The hunter stared at Yuki; the body he had attacked disappeared into the darkness. His eyes widened in surprise before a gun touched his head.
Hiruzen also looked with clear surprise. Although he worried that the hunter had killed the boy, he never thought the boy had that trick up his sleeve.
"Well, here's my little request, Hokage-sama."
Taking a brief pause, Yuki crossed his arms and looked disdainfully at Hiruzen.
Hiruzen also silently contemplated the boy; he was surrounded by clones pointing a strange weapon at him, making him take the boy seriously.
"I want to be an Anbu captain."
"Eh?"
"Eh?"
