Land of Whirlpool: Village Hidden by Whirling Tides Streets
Both Daichi and Naruto made the same hand signs. "Shadow Clone Jutsu."
10 Daichi's and Naruto's appeared. The Naruto's all drew kunai while the Daichi's drew The Sword of the Thunder Spirit.
"Earth Style: Earth Breaker Jutsu." Doshin declared while slamming his hands on the ground.
The ground immediately began to shake and up turn dispelling all the clones in one fell swoop.
"Rasengan!" Both Daichi and Naruto declared as they ran at him from the right and left.
Doshin caught both their arm and threw them both to the opposite sides from where they began; however, these two were also just clones as they to dispelled. This did nothing to rattle Doshin in the slightest.
Kunai and shuriken soon came from the shadows. Doshin avoided or blocked them with shuriken of his own until they soon stopped.
"I must say, I'm impressed that the two of you can already use the Rasengan. From what I understand, it's a hard move to learn."
Daichi lept from atop a building with his hand covered in electricity. Doshin jumped up to meet him. He avoided the strike that was thrown at him, grabbed Daichi's arm, and threw him into the ground. He then landed and stood over Daichi.
Daichi had a smile on his face as he grabbed Doshin's legs surprising him as he thought the impact would have knocked Daichi out.
Daichi saw the look on his face. "You should know that I've taken much harder hits than this. Though I must question if you've taken what we're about to hit you with."
Doshin immediately got what was coming and wove hand signs.
"Rasengan!" Naruto declared as he nailed Doshin in the back a few moments later.
Daichi let go of Doshin right as the sphere of Chakra hit him. This sent the green clad Shinobi spiraling away. Daichi sat up and watched as Doshin was pushed into the wall of a building. Daichi then got slowly to his feet with his right hand still leaking blood.
"We got him!" Naruto happily exclaimed.
Daichi sighed. "No we didn't. He was able to get off a jutsu before you hit him."
Doshin stood back up with only a few minor bruises and dirt that he dusted off his jacket. "Here I thought you weren't going to be able to hit me. I'm very impressed in you boys. Though I must wonder just how far you can really go?" He closed his eyes. "I suppose we'll find that answer together."
South Gate
Three people, with red hair, entered the destroyed village. The oldest of them was a skinny and tall man who wore dark red, Anbu style clothes. The other two were 8 years old twins.
One of them was a girl with bright red hair. She currently wore dull blue pants with a matching shirt and shoes. The other was a boy with short, dark red hair. He wore clothes similar to the man they saw as their father.
"Daddy, is this where our clan used to live?" The girl asked.
The man, Sado Uzumaki, smiled at his daughter. "It is." He gave a content sigh as the memories of the past surfaced. "Ayano and Ayane, this is where our warrior ancestors used to live.
We weren't just known as warriors though. We were actually known more for our knowledge and skills with seals. Do either of you remember what else I've told you about our clan?"
Ayano, the boy, answered. "Our clan posses strong life forces which grant us long life spans. This also grants Uzumaki members a large Chakra pool, and we can heal from wounds better than some Jonin. We also have the ability to use the Adamantine Sealing Chains which have a wide variety of uses ranging from capture to combat."
Sado smiled. "Very…" He stopped and drew his kunai. "Kids, get behind me!"
"What's going on?" Ayane asked scared at the sudden shift.
It was at this moment that a tall, muscular man charged at Sado with a large sword that had a hole near the top of the blade and a crescent indent near the bottom. He had short, spiky black hair, wore camouflage pants with no top, and had bandages wrapped around the bottom part of his face. A mist head band was askew on his forehead.
Sado brought his kunai up at the same time as the man brought his sword down causing the two of them to lock weapons with each other. It was clear in an instant that the man outclassed Sado in strength as the kunai was slowly lowered by the huge weight of the sword and the strength of the man himself.
Sado stepped to the side allowing the sword to embed itself in the ground. He then landed a kick that caused the man to move only a few inches.
Sado gritted his teeth as he stared at the man fully. "Zabuza Momochi. I guess your death was just a bunch of rumors. What do you want with us?"
It wasn't Zabuza who answered instead it was Doshin who walked around a corner to stand before the three Uzumaki. "No, I assure you that Zabuza is dead. You see this is actually a jutsu created by observing the Fusion Clone Jutsu of the Fusion Clan.
This is my Mud Golem Jutsu. It allows me to make a far more resilient copy of anyone I've fought. The down side is that they'll be about 25% weaker than the original and it takes a considerable amount of Chakra to create and maintain them. Though I think even a Zabuza at 75% is more than enough to handle you."
Doshin grinned as Sado threw a kunai at him. It hit Doshin dispelling him and revealing that he'd been speaking with a shadow clone.
Sado sighed. "Of course it was a shadow clone. Just my luck to." He turned to his kids and used his best father tone. "Ayano, stay with and protect your sister, throw kunai at anyone that gets close, and no matter what, you do not approach the mud golem. Am I clear?"
"Yes sir." Ayano stated determined as he stepped in front of his sister who'd also drawn her own kunai.
Sado now turned his full attention back to Zabuza and immediately jumped to the right just barley avoiding the huge sword as it came down. He then kicked at Zabuza, but the golem caught his leg. Sado used his other leg to kick the golem hand forcing him to let go.
He then used his hands to flip back to his feet and wove a hand sign. "Earth Style: Rock Bullet."
Pieces of the ground lifted into the air and shot at Zabuza; however, they never reached him as the golem had been weaving signs of his own. "Water Dragon Jutsu."
The nearby water shifted and moved until a dragon sprung from it. It moved in front of Zabuza and blocked the bullets before heading straight for Sado. He had a look of shock right before the attack slammed into him forcing him into the ground.
"Daddy!" Ayane shouted worriedly.
Ayano merely gritted his teeth knowing that he could do nothing to protect his father and hating every minute of it.
The attack soon subsided and Sado was able to to to his knees. He was panting from the attack and his back hurt more than any other part of his body.
Damn! This golem is to strong for me to handle alone." He slowly got to his feet. "Though that doesn't matter right now. What matters are my kids, and I will die before I ever let this…"
His thoughts were completely stopped as Zabuza appeared in front of him with his sword ready to strike. Sado moved his kunai to defend himself, but he knew that even if he got it up in time, the sword would still cut him down.
At least, it would have if a yellow chain didn't wrap itself around the sword. Sado was surprised and he looked at the kids except they hadn't been the ones to make the chain. In fact, they were just a surprised as he was.
He then looked behind the golem where he saw a red haired girl holding the sword back. White lines were all over her body. It was clear though that she was struggling against the golem's strength.
"Hey no brows, you mind telling me what you're doing attacking my clan mates?" Tayuya asked.
The golem said nothing as he stared at her and pulled on the sword.
Tayuya ignored him and addressed Sado. "Hey, you still okay to fight?"
Sado got to his feet. "Yeah, I'm good. He just caught me off guard is all. Are you…"
"There will be time for introductions later. For now, let's focus on taking this guy down. I mean, I can't exactly hold him back forever." Tayuya stated as she was slowly pulled forward by the goelm
Sado nodded his head and rushed at Zabuza. The golem dropped his sword and punched Sado in the gut. Sado winced, but he was still able to move as he channeled chakra into his arm turning it a darker color.
Zabuza attempted to to move until Tayuya's chains wrapped around his chest holding him in place. This stalled the golem long enough for Sado to lay into him with a combo of punches.
Despite the punishment, the golem was able to spin and kick Sado; however, he was able to avoid it. Tayuya then gripped the chain tighter and used all her strength to throw the golem into a wall shattering it upon impact.
The wall fell on top of the golem making it seem as though the fight was almost over. That is until the rubble began to move.
"That no brow bowed freak is really strong." Tayuya stated.
Sado made some hand signs and said, "I'll wonder if he's strong enough to survive this. Earth Style: Fissure."
Sado slammed his hands on the ground. The ground began to tremble then it shook intensely. The ground itself began to open up. Nearest to Sado, the ground only opened a bit, but as it got farther away it expanded until it was as wide as three Zabuza laying right after one another.
It was more than enough for the golem to fall in with the building following suit. Once he was gone, Sado used his Chakra to reseal the earth. With the deed done, Sado fell to the ground exhausted.
Tayuya was stunned. "That jutsu was powerful even if it did use all his Chakra."
The twins; meanwhile, ran forward to their father.
"Daddy, you did it!" Ayane exclaimed.
Ayano said, "You have to teach me that jutsu."
Sado rolled onto his back as Tayuya approached the small group.
"Hey, would you mind looking after them while I catch some sleep?" Sado asked figuring he could trust the woman that saved him.
"Wait! I have comrades who are still fighting a…" Tayuya began only to stop as Sado passed out.
Tayuya looked from Sado to the twins who now looked at her expectantly. "Naruto. Daichi. You two better not die on me."
Streets
Daichi landed on the side of a building. Numerous bruises and cuts were all over his body. The orange Chakra of the Lion's Will currently surrounded him. Naruto has more bruises, but has yet to take any cuts. Doshin only sustained a few more bruises.
"You two are certainly putting up more of a fight then I originally thought you would." He vanished from Daichi's sight and appeared at his side. "It's a shame that your still out of my league."
"Lion's Will: 30%." Daichi declared taking his ability to its current max.
He used his speed and grabbed Doshin's arm throwing him into the ground. He then lept off just as Doshin got to his feet. Before he could move, Daichi appeared below him landing a kick that sent him into the sky.
Daichi followed suit, but Doshin had wove some hand signs. "Shadow Clone Jutsu."
The shadow clone of Doshin took the original and threw him to the side allowing him to land safely. Daichi righted himself in mid air and punched the clone dispelling it. The moment Doshin landed Naruto appeared and punched him across the face.
Doshin, while hurt, grabbed Naruto's arm and lifted him into the air.
Naruto struggle against his grasp. "Let go of me!"
"As you wish." Doshin stated.
He punched Naruto in the stomach before trowing him at Daichi. Daichi caught his friend and helped him stand.
"You ok Naruto?" Daichi asked.
Naruto winced in pain. "I'm fine." Daichi let go of him and both of them looked at Doshin. "Damn, this guy is really tough."
Daichi thought, "Come on! COME ON! I need my power to surface." Daichi took a deep breathe. "Focus. You have to draw it out yourself. Remove your self barriers. It doesn't matter if it weakens me. It's either this comes out or Naruto's Nine Tails." He put his arms at his sides. "Focus…"
Naruto turned and saw that Daichi's orange Chakra was changing to blue which made him smile. "We can do this now that he's brought out his power. This guys got no idea what we're about to hit him with."
"So he's finally releasing some of it. The only problem is that it's no where near what he's reached before. Though the two of them are stronger then I thought they'd be. In four years they may just be strong enough to end me." Doshin thought.
Pain encompassed Daichi once more. Even this little Chakra he tapped into hurt him so much but he continued to struggle against the pain just like when he face Kuroma.
"Naruto, follow my lead." Daichi stated.
Naruto nodded his head. "Right."
Daichi charged forward drawing The Sword of the Thunder Spirit. He used it to lay into Doshin with multiple fast strikes meant to do nothing more than distract him. He then jumped away leaving Doshin wide open.
Naruto moved in and slammed a formed Rasengan right into the Shinobi's gut. Doshin was then sent straight into the wall. Daichi fell to the ground with his Chakra receding.
Naruto wordily looked at his friend until he heard Doshin laughing. "Congratulations. You two are far stronger than I ever thought you would be." He began to clap. "Yet you should know that I was never really here.
This was simply a mud golem of myself only allowed 50% of what I'm truly capable of, and I was cut a good 10% since I created anther mud golem. Still, you two did so well.
This is why I shall leave you alone for about 4 years, so that you may train. Make no mistake though because I will not leave the next fight until I'm dead or you two are. Good luck.
The golem turned into a muddy puddle.
"That wasn't even his full power." Naruto smiled and clenched his fist. "Then bring on your full power. Me and Daichi will be more than ready to take you on the next time. It's your mistake for giving us time to train!" Naruto shouted.
He then walked over to Daichi, put him on his back, and walked off to find Tayuya.
With Doshin, Miles Away
He closed his bingo book and stood up. "Just as I thought. They're not ready to kill me yet. Though I must admit that they're farther along than I thought." He chuckled. "They will definitely surpass the two of them."
He left the area intending to go after the next target he picked.
Camp Near the Village of Whirling Tides, 2 Days Latter…
Daichi's eyes snapped open and he instantly sat up quickly looking at his surroundings. He relaxed when he saw that he was inside a tent and all his things where neatly pilled a few feet from him.
"At least I know we made it out of the fight. I'll have to ask Naruto what happened after I fainted." Daichi slipped on his Chunin jacket. "Still, Doshin was tough." He put the Sword of the Thunder Spirit away.
"Not just Doshin, but so many other people I and my friends have face." He slipped on his arm guards. "All these battle do not bode well for the future." Daichi slung his pack on his back. "Maybe something can be done to improve the Leaf's chances."
Daichi walked out of the tent and was immediately bowled over by Ayano and Ayane running by his tent. Daichi sat up and rubbed his head.
"Kids, I thought I told you to stay away from that tent." Sado Uzumaki said sitting around what had been a camp fire.
Ayane got up and said, "Sorry daddy. It's just that Ayano took my kunai when I was practicing this morning and ran this way."
"First, I'm not the one you two need to apologize to." Sado pointed at Daichi. "This young Chunin is. Secondly, Ayano why did you take one of your sister's kunai."
At this point Daichi had gotten to his feet and was watching the events as they unfolded. He hadn't even noticed Naruto and Tayuya who were sitting near Sado. Ayano didn't answer.
"Ayano." Sado asked.
Ayano grunted. "Father, I don't see why Ayane needs to train when I'll grow strong enough to protect both of us. She doesn't need to become a Shinobi."
Sado sighed, "Ayano, it's good that you want to protect your sister, but there's a thin line between controlling and protecting. You can't control what your sister does. If she want's to be a Shinobi, then she can. Now, give her back the kunai and both of you apologize to him."
"Sorry." Ayano stated to Daichi as he gave his sister her kunai back.
He then walked off.
"I'm sorry mister." Ayane bowed before running in the other direction.
Daichi looked at the three remaining people and Naruto smiled at him. He walked over and took a seat, on the log, next to his best friend who was sitting next to Tayuya.
"So how long was I out for?" Daichi asked.
Tayuya stated, "You were out for three days which can only be expected from someone as lazy as you are."
Naruto ignored her and looked at Sado. "You and those kids are Uzumaki, right?"
Sado nodded his head. "We are. My name is Sado, the twins are Ayano and Ayane respectively. Technically I'm there father. You see I found them 7 years ago. They were apart of a caravan that had been attacked by rouge Shinobi.
Their father had died and their mother was on the way out when I came across it on my travels. She begged me to take care of them and give them a loving life. My original plan had been to head to the Leaf Village, but they changed that plan.
I instead took to working at a farm and training them in what I could until this year when I decided it was time to move on. I first brought them here, so that I could show them the village. Then we were going to head to the Leaf Village.
Imagine my surprise when I run into a mud golem of Zabuza Momochi and some green wearing Shinobi. Then imagine my further surprise when a fellow Uzumaki comes along, saves my life, and later introduces me to the current clan head."
"Sounds like you had about as crazy a day as me and Naruto. Anyways, am I to infer that you and your children will be coming with us when we head back to Konoha?" Daichi asked.
Sado nodded his head. "That's the plan. I've already shown them everything in the three days we've had.."
Daichi got up and stretched. "Then we might as well hit the road now." He looked at the sky. "It is morning, so the ship will be returning to see if we're ready for pick up soon."
"Are you sure we should move out so soon. I mean how are you feeling Daichi?" Naruto asked concerned.
Daichi stated, "I'm a still sore and stiff, but I'm fine to travel. There's no reason that we should delay our return."
Sado nodded his head. "I'll go find the twin, so we can leave."
Sado walked off and would return shortly. The whole group would then take their leave of the Village Hidden in the Whirling Tides.
Now, these three options are the people I've considered so far for a pairing with Daichi:
OC Nadshiko Ninja
Hana Inuzuka (If chosen, age will be 16 instead of 18 so gap between the two will be about 3-4 years instead of 5-6)
Yakumo Kurama
Please keep in mind that the following people are not eligible for a pairing with Daichi:
Sakura: She's already established as like a sister to Daichi. (Leaning towards Lee, but not opposed to Sasuke)
Ino: Pairing with Sai
Tenten: Pairing with Neji
Hinata: Pairing with Naruto
PhenioxMaster: I vote for Yugito if that's an option and are you going to let Fuu or any of the other Jinchuriki survive
Quillion9000: To be honest, I actually never thought of Yugito as a viable paring; however, I see problems arising as this story goes on. I mean think about everything that's happened between the Konoha and Kumo up to this point. They tried to steal Hinata when she was three, and now in my story the Leaf has alliences with two out of the four Great village besides itself. On top of that they've gained some serious power. I might do the paring even though I, as the writer, will have to come up with a way for them to be together.
You have to think of the other things that could potentially keep them apart even if they did start a relationship. I'm talking about besides the different villages. For one, she's a jinchuriki of Kumo. They will not want to let her go and Daichi is deeply tied to the Leaf Village as well as the fact that he is technically a psudeo-jinchuriki and a Clan head even though it's still a clan of one. You also have to remember that he still has to fight a duel upon becoming a Jonin that could have him end up marrying a Hyuga.
Don't forget Daichi's upbringing. His grandfather was a Samurai and an honorable one which you should see based on how he left that life. (There's also one other factor that may play into this, but that will be a secret to reveal in part 2) Daichi will only have one relashionship.
Now about letting other Jinchuriki live. Well I'll tell you and everyone that I will have one other Jinchuriki live, but it's not exactly going to stop them from filling whatever Chakra requirements they need. Thank you for your review.
do not hesitate to review or pm me should you have any questions. depending on them though I may not answer fully as I've got to keep the story shrouded enough to where you can all still enjoy it (This goes for all of you). Also, look forward to more questions that you can all answer that will affect this story and beyond. I want to try and get my fans more involved.
