"Well what are you doing here? C'mon get up." A young man said to a white haired child, putting a long blue scarf around him. "Are you gonna let life push you down, or are you going to tell life where it can shove it?" The guy said. A orange haired lady and another man, both the other guys age, ran up. "Konohamaru, hurry up! I want to get back to Leaf as quickly as we can!"
"You guys go ahead Moegi, I'm gonna stay and help this settlement out." Konohamaru said.
"What? Konohamaru you KNOW we have to go back as a cell!"
Konohamaru started picking his ear as he gave her a blank face, "I'm sorry, I can't speak nag."
"KONO-" the girl started until she saw the little boy who couldn't be more than six with Konohamaru's scarf around him. Her face became shocked and she closed her eyes and took a deep breath. "Fine, we'll see you back at leaf." Moegi said, walking off.
"Moegi."
She looked back and saw Konohamaru giving her a trademark grin. "Thanks."
She started blushing hard, "Y-yeah, whatever! Just make sure to come home!" She yelled as she stormed off.
"What's her problem?" Konohamaru said, he and the child giving confused faces. "So kid, what's your name?" He asked.
"O-Ozpin." The kid squeaked out.
"Heh, Ozping huh? Got a last name?" The kid shook his head. "Well c'mon kid."
Ozpin looked at Konohamaru puzzled. "Hey! Who's gonna teach you to survive? C'mon, chop chop!" Konohamaru said, clapping at the chop chop part.
Ozpin sipped his coffee as he dodged the snakes strikes. Everyone was mesmerized by the display and even more so when they saw Ozpin stick his cane into the ground, balance his coffee mug on it and made his hands do weird signs before he shot breaths of fire. Already he had taken three snakes down alone.
Ozpin age 11
"HEY! Are you even trying?!" Konohamaru yelled. It had been 5 years, with Konohamaru occasionally visiting after getting the kid an apartment, which he caught heated yells from Moegi about. "Who the hell buys an eight-year old his own apartment?!"
Konohamaru was training Ozpin periodically so he could protect himself since he was living alone. He was teaching him how to enhance his muscles with chakra, which Ozpin could barely do right.
"*sigh* I guess we'll have to teach you tai jutsu for now." Konohamaru said disappointed.
"N-no! I can do this! Let me continue!" Ozpin said shakily.
Konohamaru turned to him and was about to refuse until he saw his eyes. Ozpin seemed unwavering with a will of steel. He chuckled. "Fine." He ruffled Ozpin's hair and grabbed twenty leaves, throwing them in the air. Ozpin squinted his eyes. He jumped back, grabbing a stick. He started swinging wildly, making Konohamaru face palm.
"You'll never get it like that" , but when he opened his eyes, he noticed the swings weren't wild at all. It created a triangle like cyclone and when all the leaves were aligned, "No way..." Konohamaru said. Ozpin transferred chakra into the stick and threw it straight, piercing and catching all the leaves.
"Heh. It seems your chakra control goes good with weapons. I got a friend for that."
Ozpin broke through the rest of the snakes taking advantage of their surprise. All the students and professors continued fighting. Manda's tongue slithered out of his mouth and vibrated making a sound. More snakes began coming.
"You are well in the waysssss of old, but this is a matter of vengeance, not honor. I will usssssse my numberssss to take care of you lot." Manda hissed.
It was all out warfare. Students were being thrown, snakes were being toppled. Ozpin took his last sip of coffee before grabbing his can. The cane suddenly opened up, separating to form a hilt.
"You face me with a blade lesssss ssssword? Amussssing, human."
"Incorrect. Everyone, retreat."
Everyone looked surprised. "What?! We can do this!" Yang shouted.
"It wasn't a request." Ozpin replied, causing Glynda to go wide eyed.
"Sir! You haven't used that in years! Who knows what it may do to you n-"
"NOW GLYNDA!"
Everyone was wide eyed at Ozpin's first outburst, even for professor Port who had been there several years. They all took the note and retreated. The snakes were surprised to say the most, but quickly fell out of it after, about to resume their attacks. Before the first seven that rushed were sliced in half
"So ya can finally use it huh? Awesome, once you work up your reserves, you can make it even bigger." Konohamaru said.
"You know, I kinda thought you were stupid for giving me a cane as a weapon, but now? I gotta admit this is pretty awesome." Ozpin said, now sixteen. "But you're saying if I had bigger reserves, I could make a giant blade?"
"Exactly." Konohamaru said.
"...Awesome sword? Where have you been all my life?"
"Hahaha, kid, that is NOT what swords are used for." He said as Ozpin kissed his cane. "You're right, but this isn't a sword-" he said twirling the cane before throwing it up and catching it. "This ain't a sword. Not yet at least."
'But now...it is.' Ozpin though. In his hand was a hilt with a chakra blade a little more than half the size of Beacons tallest tower. Manda saw this and was frozen with fear, as were all the other snakes. Oh the irony.
"Naruto threw you off as a way of showing mercy. I will not do the same." He said before he vanished and reappeared at the other side of Manda. As the chakra disappeared, the cane reverted to its original form. Ozpin stood tall as the snakes upper body, fell from their bodies. Even the head of "Snake King Manda".
Everyone broke out into roaring cheers, even the injured were ignoring their hurt organs to cheer. Ozpin began walking back. He tried to take a sip of coffee, but his mug was empty.
"...Oh dear." He said as he collapsed forward.
