“Lariat” he screamed as they smashed into each other. For the first time in a while, their strengths were equal. Bee wasn’t holding back or not giving it his all to avoid harming his big brother. Ay smiled. It was a short brief smile in the end. Bee overpowered him in one swoop and he was sent flying right back into the steps of Unraikyo. He got back to is feet with words on his tongue but they stilled as he looked at the tails floating behind Bee. There were six of them....

“Each task will be a surprise for our dear lovely genin taking part in this exhibition so you can be sure to see the adaptability and genius of our genuine n full display.” He said, getting murmurs from the crowd as they anxiously waited for the commencement of the tasks. The murmurs turned into gasps of surprise as two massive screens were unveiled at each end of the arena.

Perhaps this had been a better idea than he’d given the Higher-ups credit for. A massive stadium at the outskirts of the village. He would probably throw up if he got to see the bill that this thing had taken. But each seat had sold for tens of thousands of yen. Each seat was filled now. Tickets had sold so quickly that civilians who wanted to attend had been forced to buy them for even higher prices from resellers. Scalpers, Shorirama referred to them as. Of course he had a na...

XXXXXX- THE DARKNESS OF SHINOBI

He stared at the letter in his hands. The missive that a chunin had nearly run himself to death crossing the land of fire in hours to deliver to him. Part of him wished to decry it as a lie. Forgery. But the code that he himself had invented stared at him on the page. The code that he’d taught both of his new students. It was written in Neji’s cold and precise writing. The flowery script the Hyuga preferred cast aside by a man who had no loyalty to cl...

Chapter 50.5- Gamer of the Desert

It was a hard march. Once he was cleared by the medics, Neji was expected to join in on the march across the Land of Grass. Ninja armies moved differently from Samurai or other conventional forces. First of all, they moved quickly. And secondly, they moved in spurts. Spurts of high speed matched with long periods of stillness as they waited for the scouts ahead of them to plot the best routs and for the reserve behind them to cover their tracks.

A ninja army had two priorities; speed a...

The Genin Exhibitions were the talk of the town for the month until the day they arrived. Everything in Konoha was turned up to eleven as. Everyone tried to put their best foot forward to prepare for the visiting villages. Even my Hyuga cousins had not been left out of the excitement. Visiting the compound to pick up a scroll on tenets control showed me that they were already working on painting the entire thing again. Insane. Especially considering they did a repaint every two y...

He’d come to discover over time that he quite liked his job. Working as the cupbearer to the firebird meant that he had access to some od the most interesting briefings and news. He was basically a god in the palace when it came to access to information. Everyone tried to be in his good graces because he had alll the best gossip. He was also watched over by a guard at virtually every instance to make sure he didn’t do anything stupid like conspire to poison the Fire...

He had never been so thoroughly outclassed in his life. He and Sasuke had thrown everything they had, all their jutsu, their taijutsu, ninjutsu, and genjutsu prowess were displayed to the limit but it only ever succeeded in making the woman across from them chuckle and ramp up her own power to match. Now, they had given it all they had and were on their last legs. He knew the only thing keeping the Uchiha standing was the pride he held. The indomitable pride that woul...

When he had said that he would beat teamwork into them, he had not expected that they would make him have to actually do it. He’d thought that their first experience against a completely superior opponent would teach them that they had to work together, but he had clearly been mistaken. Now, they tried their best to work around each other, with the Uchiha girl unwilling to stomach even the thought of relying on any of her teammates and the Senju being too consumed ...

Chapter 5.5- One Thousand Hands

Uzume scoffed across from him and he almost chuckled at her reaction. Retreat? They were shinobi of Konohagakure. They did not retreat. Besides, they had the upper hand here. He just didn’t know it yet. Uxzume weaved five seals and he jumped pet backwards. He knew what was coming. “Katon: Hosenka no jutsu” She said, executing her own unique flavour of the phoenix flower jutsu. She spewed out several missiles of flame that fanned out inn a woide angle, spreading across the hall before co...

“Okay, its our time to shine” He whispered at his teammate. She did nothing but grunt at him, but it was a meaningful improvement. At least, she no longer just blatantly ignored him and his plans. He hated how she acted like he was beneath her, but that was a matter for another day. They flew through the treeline at top speed, jumping into thew fortress at opposite ends. He had faith in her to carry out her path. The only genin more skilled than Uzume was Shori, and he was incomparable to...

“No She’s mine” Sparky said with a raised voice before lifting himself out of the hole she’d punted him into. He reached down and unbuttoned the cloak he had around his body, revealing a form fitting outfit similar to the standard uniform for Kumo jounin. She smiled at him while inwardly scoffing. She’d almost killed him in one swoop. If he thought they were equals, then she’d be sure to disabuse him of the notion.

Red chakra around her, she flew at him again. This time he w...

Chapter 50.2- Gamer of the Desert

He resisted the urge to wiggle from discomfort as they passed through the waterfall tunnel that led into the village. It was the same entrance all shinoobi of the village used, so it gave him no. cause for concern. The only issue as that he’d never learned to swim. Growing up in the desert didn’t afford one with much of an opportunity to learn a skill like that. He had to assign much of his agency to his brainwashed spy, and if anything went wrong, he’d entirely be at the mercy of anoth...

“Don’t forget the plan” Their sensei said, and then disappeared. He resisted the urge to gulp. How could he ever forget the plan? It was his plan, after all. They stood in the treelike, watching the bandit encampment through fuinjutsu enhanced binoculars. Having a Senju on the team was such a hack. They got the best stuff. His mother even said that these binoculars weren’t cleared for issue t...

“Will you now, boy? Come take them then” The Old King replied. Toji moved quickly to ensure that he would be in position for when the time came and he got the opportunity, but he also made sure to keep an eye on the battle as it begun.

The old king was the first to move, covering the ground with a boost from his earth bending that meant that he was at Natsu’s throat before the man could do more than inhale. Instead of exhaling air, his friend breathed out an act...

XXXXXXXX-- OROCHIMARU OF THE SANNIN

Orochimaru had never considered himself to be an extraordinarily complicated person. In fact, he felt that his goals had always been simple and easy to note. ‘Learn every jutsu in the world’ was an ambitious goal, but a simple one. ‘Make sure no one can kill you before you achieve your main goal’ was another simple goal. Time spent dead, in captivity, and then under genjutsu had helped him see through the folly of his ways. Not his goals, of c...

Gather the chakra, spin it to create rotation, add density to create power, and then contain it all in a stable shell. The rasengan that formed in his palm was perfect. Of course it was. He’d “invented” the jutsu while still in the academy. He never got the chance to even consider hiding the discovery or his training. Chakra training was dangerous, and the heir to the Senju clan wasn’t even allowed to dream of training on his own without some sort of supe...

This was realistically the best team he could have asked for. Sure the one with the Uchiha and the Kurama heir was interesting, and the Akimichi, Nara, and Yamanaka combo were going to be lethal no matter what, but this was the kind of team that tales were told of. The Senju Heir, top of his class in the academy with the power to use B-rank jutsu as a genin- The youngest child of the Uchiha Clan head who showed potential that far outstripped any of her older brothers...

“Troublesome” She thought to herself as she walked into the classroom and found the seat that she’d been forced to occupy for the past two years filled by someone else. She almost tripped over her feet in surprise when she entered and found the Kurama boy sitting next to her Senju cousin. She’d expected the boy to get bored of her eventually, but the fact that it had taken him two years to do so was just somethi...

Of course she didn’t waste a second trying to do something actually useful like coming up with a plan or even letting them know what she was going to do ahead of time. Yes, Toshiro, and he was sure Shori as well, had known that the girl would attack once she got the permission to. It was her entire personality, after all. But couldn’t she have learned a new trick or two after graduation. He absently noticed Shori disappearing from the corner of his eyes as ...

 Turns out that when the going got tough, Cyclops could absolutely haul ass with the best of them. He covered the distance between them and the doujutsu user in seconds, with Mangetsu doing his best not to fall behind. Cyclops leaned in with a stab of his kunai. The man weaved out of the way, letting the blade move past him. Mangetsu took a step before jumping into the air for a second. The air was a dangerous place for a ninja. He stabbed down with the blade held in his left hand. The k...

“Really? And what are you here for then?” He said, walking forward and dropping out of his combat ready stance. It was a feint, and they all knew it. A subtle genjutsu made the spinning sharingan in my left eye appear to all as a calm teal. The same shade as the eye that matched it in my right socket.

“We have an offer for you” Jiraiya said, taking the reins of the conversation once again. Tsunade did not hesitate to samoothly hand them back to him. An interesting dynamic.

Chapter 49.3- Gamer of the Desert

The sharingan was the ultimate cheat code. Like it was just so easy. Learning, fighting, thinking, it made everything that would have previously been hard, or even slightly difficult, almost playfully easy. For example, learning techniques. The sharingan was known as the copy wheel eye for a reason, but what I’d learned was that it wasn’t just a copier. Like the doujutsu had two basic abilities when it came to understanding techniques or movements. First of all, there was the basic copyin...

The exams had been hard. The hardest thing he’d ever had to do. He’d trained his arsenal off for it but even with that, he’d just barely been able to last long enough in the ring for the chunin to count his taijutsu as a pass, and after doing and redoing the jutsu every day for weeks, he’d been able to execute all five jutsu required of him to graduate just without keeling over from chakra exhaustion. Shurinkenjutsu was easy enough, but the addition of th...

None of the outs they’d asked Kizuru to do had been things Shori had had any difficulty with at all. After all, it had been him who’d helped Kizuru learn everything it would take to ...

He lounged against the tree stump while taking a look around the gathering. He hadn’t thought that this would be what the gatherings would look like when he’d first heard of them and pursued an invitation. He’d expected secret training of powerful ninjutsu or something like that but while Izuku-san and Shorirama-san did show off some ninjutsu on their own, it definitely was not the centre of the meetings. These were, and he still felt strange thinking it, a...

She weaved out of the way of a sudden strike that had been aimed at her heart, wondering for a second how the situation had gotten so bad. She’d come to work today, expecting another droll day where she had to read report after report from spy after spy. Since Iwa had been basically taken off the map by the Kazekage, not a day had gone wihpout her being forced into one or ten meetings. Some times, there were even meetings that would be scheduled to take plac...
