22 The Third Red Eye Ninja (2/2)

”Kabuto was Orochimaru's spy in Konoha,” I told him, ”I caught him and one of his lackeys spying on me. When they realised I was on to them they tried to lose me. Kabuto killed his spy in room 304 in the Dancing Leaf hotel. I then followed him to the hospital, I couldn't risk any medical information getting into his hands, so I decided to stop him and bring him here for questioning.”

”I see...and you heard them mention Orochimaru by name?”

I nodded, ”they did, as well as Oto, but at that point the spy couldn't say anything more as Kabuto had stuck a knife in his throat.”

”I see...very well, good job Yam, I'm sure Kabuto will be a wealth of information,” he sighed, ”more damn paperwork.”

I snorted, ”and you wonder why I don't want your damned job. Anyway, if that's all, I'll take my leave lord Hokage, see you in one week's time.”

”Take care Yami, oh ad try to get some sleep, you look like a zombie,” Hiruzen chuckled.

”Yeah yeah...by the way, how's Yagura?”

”The Yamaha's are making progress, slow progress,” Hiruzen sighed, ”but they are getting somewhere.”

”Hm...sorry I can't be of any help, but that genjutsu is far too powerful for me.”

”It's fine, please, think nothing off it. Enjoy your break.”

I nodded, ”right,” and took off, leaving them to discuss secrets in private. As I made my way out of the building though I felt a familiar chakra signature walking towards me. As I turned the corner I almost bumped into her, she froze on the spot and I smiled, ”hey Anko, fancy seeing you here.”

”Y-Yami! Hey man! How's it been! Long time!” Anko smirked, ”been enjoying your downtime?”

I shrugged, ”it's going fine. But I'm honestly really eager to get some sleep. I've been training a new jutsu, so it takes some time. How have you been?”

Anko nodded, ”ah, good, I'm good. So..” que the awkward silence.

I chuckled, ”it was nice seeing you again Anko,” I walked past the girl, ”by the way, if you want repeat of that night, all you have to do is ask!”

”HEY! Don't say that!” Anko hissed, but I was already out the door.

I chuckled, I guess a month is too short of a time for her to adapt to what happened. She did technically sleep with a minor, even if by law I'm an adult.

I need to experiment with my eye, I need to figure out what it could do. So instead of going to my home I left to the park where I entered a level 1 natural dungeon and began my training process.

But, first things first, ”Scorch Release: Purgatory Tsunami!” I blew the flames out and allowed it to consume the forest before me. This killed the pokemon around me, hopefully now I can have some peace and quiet.

Now, let's see if I can use the six paths. I removed my headband opening up my third eye. I channeled chakra into it and focused, immediately a menu popped up.

Mentally request the path to acquire it.

Hm, how about, 'Deva Path,' I suddenly felt a rush of power gather around my body, my chakra was mutated as suddenly it began to rubble, begging to be release. I threw my hands out as the words came automatically into my head, ”Shinra Tensei!”

BOOM!

The entire land around me exploded from me feet as everything, the air, the ground and even the flames I sent out before were all blow away, a huge twenty feet long crater forming around me, with me standing in the middle before I began falling down.

”Fuck!” I cried out as I braced for the impact. I managed to land in a roll, reducing the damage, sighing as I looked around at the giant crater I had formed.

-2,000 CP!

Damn!

Ping!

You have discovered a new skill!

Shinra Tensei, S rank

(Only accrue if user can use all five elements)

Shinra Tensei is the Deva Path's ability to manipulate repulsive force at the user's will to push matter or techniques away.

CP cost- 100 CP per 1 foot of area repulsed

DMG- 500

I grinned, thank God I could already control all the elements! Cool! Now, what next? Hm, maybe I should first master all the jutsus for the Deva path. I first repulsed everything away, let's see if I can do the opposite.

But I need to pull something, so I made a clone, but the moment I did, there was a suddenly change in vision.

”What the fuck?!” the clone and I cursed. Our visions, our third vision from the Rinnegan, it's been split. We could see two different visions, I could tell from the way everything looked.

”I-Is this because of the eye?” my clone asked in disbelief.

”Nagato shared his vision with the dead bodies...the jinchuuriki when they were brought back had shared vision too...it's possible,” I closed all three eyes, and sure enough I could still see through my clone, I could see me with my eyes closed, ”damn, I never realised how good I look.”

”Oh please, we use shadow clones all the time,” the clone snorted, ”anyway, what do you think is the limit on this?”

”I don't know,” I said opening my eyes, ”let's find out,” I grinned as I crossed my fingers, summoning twenty more clones as we were all opened up to twenty more pov shots!

”This is amazing!” a clone said.

”Quickly, let's all go outside the crater and look in!” another suggested as they did just that. Soon I had a view of the entire crater with me in the center. It was like a third person view, and I was a character in a video game! Heh, ironic.

”Alright, that's enough,” I called out, ”time to test out the Deva Path! You ready!”

”Hell yeah!” the clones called out.

I sent chakra into the eye and thought, 'Deva Path,' and slowly the same gravity manipulation chakra came over me, this time I sent it inwards, and I felt tendrils of chakra go out, before being sucked back in.

”Bansho Tenin!” I found myself automatically saying as the chakra wrapped around the clone before me, pulling him forward like a magnet.

He went flying through the air and landed right before me before vanishing into thin air, I gained his memories, the feeling of my powers were absolute, like a sort of jutsu that couldn't be blocked.

Ping!

You have discovered a new skill!

Bansho Tenin, S rank

(Only accrue if user can use all five elements)

Bansho Tenin is the Deva Path's ability to manipulate attractive force at the user's will to pull matter towards them.

CP cost- 100 CP per 1 foot of area attracted

DMG- 500

I grinned, ”Alright then, let's get shit started! Come at me mother fuckers!” my clones cried out and charged at me, I grinned as I gathered my chakra and threw my hands out moment before they reached me, ”Shinra Tensei!”

They all popped as my repulsion force hit them, leaving me blinking and alone in an even deeper crater, ”ah...maybe I need to learn how to control this.”

One week later:

I spent hours working on my new powers. Since time slowed to a stop inside the natural dungeons I could train in them for how much ever I wanted. Though my body did physically age from the intense training.

Though I managed to reduce the ageing process a lot thanks to my cellular manipulations, I still did age significantly from all that time I spent in the natural dungeons. I spent at least a month practising each path. And I wasn't even fully successful.

I managed to master the Deva Path quickly enough, though the finer skills too some time to master. The pushing and pulling was fine enough, but it was the last jutsu of this path that had me excited.

Chibaku Tensei, S rank

The user releases a black sphere from his hands which acts as a centre of gravity, drawing in everything in its surroundings to create an enormous satellite.

CP cost-

10,000 for small sized satellite

50,000 for medium sized satellite

100,000 for large sized satellite

500,000 for Moon sized satellite

Needless to say, I was so not going to master this thing fully anytime soon.

I then began practising the other paths. After mastering the Deva path I moved onto the second path, Asura. And it was creepy.

Ping!

You are trying to access the Asura path! But you have no weapons listed under that category! Please create said attachments before proceeding!

It would seem Nagato created the weapons he used in the mechanical body. He created the chakra canon and that sword and even extra hands. The Asura path operated like a quick equipment system, allowing me to use a weapons easily and quickly.

I first used my Ring of Stars as a weapon for the path and found that the moment I activated my Asura path, the Ring would automatically come to my hand, regardless of where it was. Even if it was in my inventory. As such I got the basis for the Asura path locked down.

Asura Path, S rank

The Asura Path grants the user the ability to augment their own body to summon mechanised armour and various ballistic and mechanical weaponry.

CP cost- 200 per item

Slots used-

Right forearm- Ring of Stars

Right palm- Gunbai

Left palm- Fanged Dagger

I didn't have anything else amazing, like a chakra canon or even a robotic limb to use. So I left the rest of it empty. I did however get a quest.

Quest Alert!

Create weapons for the Asura path!

Additional limbs: (0/4)

Additional weaponry: (0/2)

Reward:

Full power of the Asura path

Failure:

Limited use of the path

Do you accept?

Y/N?

I accepted, though I did never got time to make any sort of progress in the quest. In fact I also didn't get any time to make those chakra blades I so wanted, there was just not enough time, I was far too busy working on the Rinnegan, which I'm sure was a much higher priority.

I did however have clones making up plans for the additional weapons I could use, so when I did finally have time to spend on the project I didn't have to waste it coming up with new ideas.

Then came the Preta path, which allowed me to absorb all forms of ninjutsu. This path was relatively easy to master. Hell I Didn't even have to do anything to start it up.

Preta Path, S rank

Allows the user to absorb all forms of chakra, including most ninjutsu.

Conversion rate- 60% of all chakra absorbed is channeled into CP

Then I tried to use the human path;

Human Path, S rank

Allows the user to remove the soul of a target from their body and absorb any and all knowledge they posses. This will result in vicitms death. The soul will be stored in the King Of Hell summon.

CP- 1,000 per soul

But I couldn't experiment with it, as cones didn't have souls, so I couldn't absorb them. I would need a live human to test it on and...well, I'm not that fucking sick.

So then I moved on to the Animal path, or the summoning path. I was actually putting this off for later, but I figured I might as well get it over with. The animal path was different however, as it couldn't be used while inside the NAtural dungeon, so I had to leave.

I traveled outside the village, making sure I wasn't followed. I then found a cave in a mountain that was around a twenty kilometers away from Konoha. I then began the Animal path, and slowly all the relevant information came to my head.

It seemed the Animal path was quite possibly the weakest of all the paths and the only thing it could do was summon animals, granted they were powerful animals, but still. But, I found out that in order to do that, I had to first embed a Black Receiver into the creature in order to control it.

So I got to work.

In the cave there was a giant bear which I managed to capture chain up. I then began the task of forming a black receiver, a metal like substance that, while not as hard as steel, I could still use to deflect kunai.

It took me some time, a few days of meditation, but I finally managed to construct a black rod from my own chakra.

Black chakra Receiver, B rank

Allows a Rinnegan user to create a chakra receiver that acts as high-frequency chakra demodulators, allowing users to transmit their chakra into these receivers and whoever the receivers have been embedded in.

CP cost- 500 CP for 3 foot long receiver

CP transmittable:

Limit of 500 CP per second if target is a hundred kilometers or closer

Limit of 200 CP per second if target is a thousand kilometers or closer

Limit of 100 CP per second if target is ten thousand kilometers or close

Note: One can only control a target if one's chakra overpowers target's own

I produced a chakra rod and stabbed it into the bear's behind. It cried out, but I slowly pushed all the chakra Is about producing into it's system. The bear was nothing, it barely had any chakra of it's own, only a hundred points. It was overtaken in five seconds.

And then, the bear changed, it's eyes turned into my own red rinnegan as suddenly I could see from it's perspective. I could see as it did, and more importantly, I could order it around. Because:

Ping!

You have obtained a chakra slave!

Chakra slave: Once your chakra flood's the victim's system, they become a mindless entity. Their personality will be locked away, allowing you to control what they say and do.

Bear- Lv- 14

HP- 4,000

SP- 5,000

CP- 100

No special skills of note.

And thus I obtained my first unofficial summon.

I found that by using the Animal path, I could summon anyone that was my chakra slave, like the bear. I didn't have to use any hand seals or a blood sacrifice in order to summon them, which was a big plus. Unfortunately, as I discovered, I couldn't summon them inside a Natural dungeon, too much time and space manipulation going on.

Animal Path, S rank

Allows the Rinnegan user the ability of summoning various animals and creatures to aid it in battle.

CP cost- 500

Range- Limitless for chakra slaves.

500 kilometers for others

Sealess if the summon has similar chakra. Seals if the summon if third party.

But regardless, thanks to this, I had myself more animals to control. Yay! But, I needed powerful summons, not just a damn bear. I could try and get a summoning control, but I realised I honestly didn't have the time, there was just too much to do!

ARGH!

Anyway, back to work. I returned back to the Natural Dungeon and continued working. I had two paths left, the Naraka path and the Outer path. The Outer path was difficult to use to say the least. It proceeded over life and death itself!

I didn't really know what to do with it though, I mean...could I really revive people from the dead? Should be possible right?

Outer path, S rank

The user is able to revive the dead, transmit chakra to receivers, as well as manifest chakra chains.

Ping!

You have gained a new jutsu!

Demonic Chakra chains, S rank

The user is able to manifest chakra chains which bind and restrict the power of anyone they touch and cause a great deal of pain.

Note: They can only be used on those that are chakra slaves.

CP cost- 500 per second

Durability: Indestructible

Ping!

Outer Path- Samsara of Heavenly Life, SS rank

This reincarnation ninjutsu used through the Outer Path, which can infuse new life into the bodies of those who have died in exchange for the user's own life.

CP cost- Everything

Yeah...I am so not ready for those. And I'm definitely not going to use the reviving one. No way if fucking hell!

But I did unlock the path, so for now that's enough. And then came the last path, Naraka Path;

Naraka path, S rank

Summons the King of Hell which aides in the path. It has two main functions, Revive and Destroy.

CP cost of summon- 5,000

Hm, okay, now I'm interested. I went through the hand seals in my head for the 'King of Hell,' and I slammed them into the ground. Suddenly there was a ring of red fire, blood red, like the colour of my eye.

Out of the ring of flames came a gant figure, he wore a royal high collar with a black raised head ornament displayed like the rising sun, giving him a black halo. The creature's zipper slowly opened up, showing the King's face. He had a crown with the kanji for Hell on it, red skin and eyes with red hued Rinnegans.

King of Hell, SS rank,

A chakra construct that is the visual representation for the doors of Hell, falsely named, 'The King of Hell'.

Uses:

Naraka path:

Interrogation- is capable of discerning whether an individual is lying or not.

Revival- is capable of full healing any person placed inside his mouth, even if they are at the doors of death. CP cost- 5,000 Limit- 1 at a time.

Outer path: Aides in 'Samsara of Heavenly life' jutsu.

I grinned, yeah, I can totally use this.

I grew older with my time in the Natural dungeon, growing taller and stronger. I now stood at 5 feet 4 inches, not bad for a thirteen year old. When I finally left the dungeon, it was time to see the Hokage once more, since technically, today was the last day of my vacation time.

The Next Day:

”The informant you captured was very useful Yami,” the Hokage said as he pushed a folder to me. I picked it up and looked it over as the old man continued, ”he gave us information on all of Orochimaru's bases and operations. It seems he wasn't just a mole like we suspected, but rather his right hand man.”

”Well then it's a good thing I didn't roast him alive,” I snorted as I saw the Land of Rice, now the Land of Sound, was dotted with several bases and highlighted markers, ”damn, that's a lot.”

”And a lot of potential enemies,” he smiled, ”since you did technically kill their Kage.”

I shrugged, ”if he can get killed by a Jounin, he deserves to die.”

The man sighed, ”migh isn't everything Yami.”

”I know that lord Hokage, but when dealing with people who care for nothing but power, might is everything.”

”Well said,” the man smiled, ”now, the threat of Oto trying to gain vengeance is too high, especially during the chunin exams. Your first mission will be a B rank, during the tournament I want you to be on standby, incase Oto tries to pull something.”

I nodded, ”sounds good. And the second mission?”

”That one...is far more difficult,” the Hokage put down his pipe and took off his hat.

I blinked, ”damn, you're taking off your hat. It's that serious?”

”Indeed...because I cannot in good concious order you to do this, not as your Kage. I can only request you, whether you accept it or not...that's wholly up to you,” the man aged before me, he looked far too old for my liking.

I sighed, ”enough with the drama old man, tell me the mission.”

”Otot, before Orochimaru took over, was known as the Land of Rice. It had several ninja clans present in it, none off note, but they were many, and they often raged war against themselves. The way Orochimaru gained the daimyo's ear to establish a ninja village, is by promising to end the blood shed, and he did...only now the people faced a new threat, him.

”Your mission will be to infiltrate Oto and begin dismantling each of Orochimaru's bases, one by one. You will free the people suffering under his men and establish a real ninja village in it's place. A proper Oto. That is, if you choose to accept the mission.”

I narrowed my eyes, ”something isn't right...what's the catch?”

The Hokage sighed, ”the mission will take three years to complete...until that is done, you are not permitted to return to Konoha. No exceptions.”

I winded my eyes, ”t-three years? But I can do it one! I mean if all I have to do is destroy a couple of bases-”

”Then yes, one year would be more than enough. But I'm not asking you to just destroy everyone that comes in your way...no...I'm asking you to do what you do best...inspire them to better than their previous selves.”

”What are you talking about old man?” I growled, ”I don't inspire people, what the hell-”

”-Before you came Anko was a broken shell, now she is finally getting a chance to be happy. Sasuke was consumed by vengeance, but even before you revealed your true identity, your influence on him was unmistakable. Yagura would be dead in a ditch somewhere, you saved him, allowing us to try and save him. You saved nine hundred men, when someone else would have let them die for their country.

”You see the best parts of people...that they themselves don't want to see. The people of Oto have been shown their worst fears in Orochimaru...you need to make them think otherwise. I don't want you to just break Oto and rebuild it...I want you to heal it...heal it from what Orochimaru did to it.”

”Why do you care so damn much?!” I slammed my hands on the table, he didn't flinch, ”you're the Hokage of Konoha! Why do you care about Oto?”

”Because...I am the reason they had to suffer Orochimaru...if I could...I would fix it myself but...I'm far too old. I'm nearing 70 years Yami, I can't spend time outside this village like I once could. So...I'm turning to the one man who I know who would want to save the people there ...the one person who wants to save the world, not destroy it. So..I have no one else to turn too.”

I looked at the quest options and I sighed, I grinned, flashing the man a happy chuckled, ”alright old man, no need to flattr me so much! You got yourself a deal!” I accepted the quests.

Hiruzen looked surprised, ”y-you do?”

I nodded, ”hell yeah. You're right, I wouldn't let a land suffer, and besides, three years by myself in another land? Should be fun!”

The Hokage sighed before leaning back, relief flooding over him. He smiled, ”thank you Yami, thank you for doing this. I know it is a selfish thing to ask of you..but I couldn't let his actions on this Earth remain a stain as it is.”

I shrugged, ”it's fine...but ah, you're going to have to deal with Naruto and Sasuke and explain to them why I'm gone.”

The man chuckled, ”fine, agreed. Now, let's discuss the people you'll be bringing with you on the mission to Oto.”

I raised an eyebrow, ”it'll be faster if I just went alone.”

”You are the second last Uchiha, the Second coming of the Yellow Flash, the wielder of the Scorch Release and a very unique form of chakra control. There's no way in hell I'll be able to send you alone without the council objecting. I'll have to send a minimum of three people along with you.”

I sighed and rubbed my eyes, ”fucking politics. Fine. Anyone in mind?”

The man nodded, ”a few, yes. But I have to approach them first before I can confirm anything, after all, they'll be in the same boat as you, I can't just order them to do something so selfish.”

I shrugged, ”I'm sure they'll understand. Anyway...I was wondering, since I'm going to b gone for sometime, could I maybe get some help from the village about something?”

Hiruzen nodded, ”of course, just ask away.”

I've been waiting for this moment for some time now. Before I figured I'll casually mention it after a mission or two and get it, but now since Hiruzen owes me… ”I was wondering if there were any ninjas in the village that could use Wood Release.”

The Hokage looked suprised, ”Wood Release? Why is that?”

”Well,” I made several hand seals ending with the snake on, ”Wood Release: Thundering Growth,” I targeted my chakra at the potted plant near Hiruzen's side and the Hokage watched with wide eyes as the small tree slowly grew bigger and bigger, finally now fully grown.

His eyes snapped back to me, ”you….are such a headache,” he sighed, ”why can't I just retire already?!”
