Bye
The unlit lamp in Keisuke's bedroom soon glowed with it emanating a calm and clear shine as Keisuke soon stood up from his bed an expression of agitation and slight nervousness on his face.
"Damn it the moment Shirouu leaves this happens." The turquoise-haired child mused to himself in annoyance slowly walking to a simple mirror as he stared in its direction with the reflection showing the dim blue eyes he withheld with what looked to be a symbol of lightning contained inside it before it glowed momentarily.
"Why is it here now anyway?!" Keisuke thought with his hands grabbing on his face a look of frustration quickly appearing with all of the previous nervousness, agitation, and annoyance vanishing completely by then.
The lightning symbol then stopped glimmering entirely causing Keisuke to fall with his eyes returning to a dim blue once more but the child's madness stayed for some reason.
"Well, I need to sleep for a bit." Keisuke stated aloud before falling onto the chair unable to make it to his bed.

As Naruto awoke checking his alarm clock the time already becoming 6:00 AM a hint of calmness contained in his eyes realizing that shockingly the time that went by since the formation was of team seven was three months signifying that their teamwork was improving with them not needing to be placed onto new groups thankfully.
"The time to meet up is 10:00 AM meaning that I got some time to practice a few things." Naruto then quickly got changed wanting to get out of his apartment to grant himself more training.
As the Uzumaki jumped from building to rooftop he noticed that there was some sort of malicious motivation somewhere and that it came from the place where the Hokage's building was located and it was strange, the bloodlust was slight which was something.
(-)
"Come on all I want is a C-Rank Mission that's the best you can honestly give me like I filed in your paperwork that one time and only for you to go out reading that book Kakashi's obsessed with. " Akio stated staring towards the upper area of the room where normally the Shinobi would be bowing but the Senju was more than the eyes could meet.
"Unfortunately… The group known as Team Seven was only formed not too long ago and they weren't able to gain much mission experience." The Leader of Konoha finished deflecting Akio's glare with his own a type of Bloodlust undamaging to anyone enveloping the place entirely.
"No, I can display my team's skills quite easily if that's what was needed." Akio said leaning in with a smile of his own demonstrating there was no other motivation behind it.
All that Hiruzen could accomplish than was sigh the knowingness that the exhilarated Senju wouldn't stop.
"Well as long as you leave." The Third Hokage mumbled quite thankful that this would be over soon.
"Kinda waiting." Akio's hand then faded becoming the normal Blue Blur with it reappearing grasping onto a Scroll.
"When? Well that technique then." The Leader smiled knowingly once more slightly impressed with the Jounin's physical prowess or the aspect of speed on it.
"Finally, time to read it" Akio said then removing the string keeping the Scroll together grinning slightly more in that moment.
"It's," The Senju started his hazel eyes examining the paper of knowledge before placing the small rope storing it away in his pocket after, "Well… that's irritating." Akio then walked towards the door with an expression of frustration but still kept the smile before looking in the direction of the Hokage whose face gained a happier look.
"Damn it looks like this mission won't be too easy but that's better and challenging too." Akio thought his face permitting a more excited glimmer in his eyes but this was noticed by the Hokage without requiring any form of direct signification for it.
"This Senju is different from his ancestors in every way sadly." The last part was something the Hokage disliked about the Senju something that ruined Akio's title as a Shinobi.
"Well, Naruto, Sasuke, and Keisuke this mission is necessarily going to push all of you to your limit prepare." The Senju mused already on the roof of the Hokage's Building as he then jumped away after.
(-)
About 4 Hours Later Mission Begins:
With Naruto now more relaxed after some simple Taijutsu training, he noticed that Sasuke was more collected than normal in their current fight for practice.
As The Uchiha delivered a swift Kick directed to Naruto's face the unemotional Uzumaki dodged moving to the left reaching into his pouch before tossing three Kunai towards Sasuke with much ease.
"Trying to place my attention on something else… won't work." The Skilled Genin then leaped up before using Fire Style: Fire Ball Jutsu as the sphere of heat landed on the weapons encasing them as soon after Sasuke sprinted getting to the Uzumaki's location in only a few more seconds quite quickly.
"Never knew Sasuke was this fast, guess it's time for something new then." Naruto thought grabbing the Dagger something that he started properly practicing with.
"The Dagger works well with slight momentum and more strength in where it is wielded." Naruto then attempted to slash Sasuke's arm but the Uchiha pulled out something from his spare-bag it was similar to the weapon Medical Ninja use for acupuncture the Senbon, needle-like weapons but this sort of gear was different.
Then with Sasuke finishing grabbing his weapon that's when he placed the Fire Chakra inside it heating up the Darts before tossing them to Naruto's knees trying to get him to topple over soon.
As the Darts inched more towards Naruto but he then deflected them all before leaping up.
"What's he trying now?" Sasuke span around already pivoted to a certain spot in the field the last of his Heated Darts landing and soon then reaching Naruto who was Mid-Air but as the Uchiha stopped the moment came as he the wind slam into his stomach with Naruto appearing in front of him the Darts inside his arms with only small amounts of blood trickling from it.
"Looks like we both got each other but you're still a loser." Sasuke said with a smirk plastered on his face as staggered before leaning on a tree.
"That's the best way to put it." Naruto stated apathetically.
Soon after Keisuke appeared jumping from the trees demonstrating the speeds he obtained.
"What was I able to avoid?" The Turquoise-Haired Shinobi questioned.
As Sasuke walked away after he came.
"Nothing much." Naruto blandly replied leaping onto a branch.
(-)
"Hello, my weird students." Akio finally arrived his posture displaying an unhealthy amount of exhilaration for something.
"Stop calling us that." Keisuke calmly thought his annoyance with Jounin already too much.
(-)
"Well anyways… What's the mission?" Sasuke asked looking towards the scroll with curiosity laced in his tone too.
"Now Now! Try not to get too excited over this… It's a C-Rank because I'm such an outstanding Jounin in Konoha I got permission for this." Akio then swung the scroll around before coming to a halt noticing that everyone wasn't too happy about it.
"What's it about?" Keisuke then attempted grabbing the scroll as he lunged towards it but Akio then showed up behind the Genin before causing him to fall onto a nearby fence.
"Ow." Keisuke irritatingly looked to the graze he got.
"Can we please get into the mission details?!" Sasuke then obtained a simple nod from Akio as Keisuke walked towards them all.
While this happened Naruto stayed quiet.
(-)
"This C-Rank Mission is to assist getting the Crucial Scrolls from the Village of Sadness the Crucial Scrolls are similar to the Forbidden Scrolls with possibly some techniques stronger than ones Konoha's got, which is why they want to keep the alliance going." Akio stated with all of Team Seven understanding most of it.
"By now we leave in an Hour it takes up to two hours arriving to the Sadness Village prepare because trust me this isn't going to be as easy as you think sadly." Akio could only smile before Body Flickering away after.
(-)
As Naruto already made the preparations with his pouch containing Kunai and Shuriken and Dagger too with something else that he was working on inside it too.
"The things I need to practice are Sealing Jutsu and Wind Style Jutsu too and possibly a different technique entirely with my Taijutsu coming along nicely and then I can work on my Dagger Skills additionally to that." Naruto then glanced to his left and Sasuke was standing there a more serious expression unlike his collected one like normal.
Then Keisuke came with his sword in the container and for some reason, his demeanour was more agitated and slightly frustrated in addition to it.
"Are you ready for this?" Keisuke asked standing near his team-mates and Sasuke simply nodded his expression unchanging.
"That's not something I can pick for now that is." Naruto stated as his eyes watched Akio finally arrive a few pouches around his Jounin Vest but overall that was it.
The Mission then began.
(-)
"The forest is a more relaxing place to stay and it can give you a more joyous feeling unlike a few of you my weird students." Akio explained playfully before landing onto the next branch.
"Are we going to stop anytime for anything?" Naruto unemotionally questioned checking his gear thoroughly.
"Well aside from training on the one-hour stretch then nope." Akio quickly replied moving below to dodge a few leaves with a certain collected Uchiha observing the area hoping to locate any threats.
(-)
About 1 Hour Later Mission Continues:
"Quickly, Swivelling Slash!" Keisuke swung his blade as Akio merely blocked it with a Kunai the technique's velocity not giving him much opportunity to avoid what was about to happen next.
The Kunai was gaining the edge in the Battle but before Akio was able to carry on the Fire Petals from the unexpected and strong and random Fire Style: Phoenix Flower Jutsu made contact but then with much speed the Senju faded becoming more swift and quick as the expected Blue Blur formed around his arms with what looked to be a barrage of Kunai as they dispelled the Fire Petals quickly.
"Well if the strategy works." Sasuke thought landing next to Keisuke as they nodded to each-other waiting for something.
Then Naruto dashed towards Akio slashing his arm but before he could continue the Senju grabbed the Genin before tossing them to the direction of a tree but Naruto then span Mid-Air making it to the more high areas of the branches.
"It looks like Naruto kept up on his training… Good." Akio thought.
As then Keisuke threw his sword as a Fire Ball was formed behind it heating the Blade as Akio then leaped up dodging it.
(-)
"Well, that was outstanding with Naruto using his dagger to slice the arm with a graze giving Sasuke the chance to use a Fire Ball with the Chakra Weakening Seal placed on him and Keisuke's sword then heating up it gave him the opportunity to try and stab me with it." Akio finished his examination of the situation.
"No, I wasn't tryna damage you too much!" Keisuke attempted to stop the issue from looking like his own fault it wasn't succeeding sadly.
Soon the feeling of the vicinity changed.
"There's something I would like to tell all of you to come on," Akio said gesturing for the Shinobi to get more near for some sort of explanation.
(-)
"It's great that all of you are working as a team but there is going to be a moment when you can't stay with each other in a battle all that I'm saying is to fight by yourself once in a while." The Senju then stood up from the Tree-Stump before smiling to the Genin. "Now then let's continue with this." As Akio then leaped up.
(-)
As Naruto was currently thinking about the words that the Jounin was able to give them all.
"There's something I realized the Shinobi World can be quite strange." Naruto finally landed with Keisuke behind and Sasuke watching the place.
"It's that I couldn't care less about those that need to be killed as it's their own fault." Naruto completed his musing as he travelled with the rest of his Team with the Gate of The Village of Sadness then becoming easier to notice.
There were about Three Chunin stationed there clearly awaiting the quick arrival of Konoha Shinobi.
Soon they reached the Gate completely with Akio pulling out the scroll.
"Hi," The Senju stated casually. "The mission request that you gave to Konoha was assigned to these Weird Genin they are going to try and complete this task but trust me on this one they are failing this." Akio whispered.
"Please! We heard that!" Keisuke exclaimed with Sasuke eyeing the Village from the Places located in the front.
"The Buildings are quite well-kept and there fancier but I feel like somethings wrong I need to remain on guard." The Attentive and calm Uchiha thought still observing the surrounding parts.
(+)
"Well then it looks like you're from the Hidden Leaf Village please come with us, quickly!" The Three Chunin then scattered with only one escorting them throughout the town.
As Naruto examined the Village while jumping from roof to roof he was able to spot that there weren't many civilians around something which confused the Uzumaki slightly.
(-)
After arriving to the Leader's Building where Lord Iqada the Leader of the Sadness Village Keisuke expected him to be more of a serious Shinobi but that wasn't necessarily true.
(+)
"Thank you for coming!" Iqada shouted an expression of much if not entirely nervousness as he sat on the chair with the desk in front, the Leader's eyes looking to Akio with much happiness.
"It's great that the Blue Blur of Konoha was sent!" The Leader screamed once more causing Akio to laugh quietly.
"It's no worry and please this is the least we can help you with." The Senju said quickly.
(+)
"S-Seriously? This is the Village's Leader? For some reason, I was thinking somebody scarier but it looks like we're good." Keisuke thought.
"Why is Akio-Sensei called the Blue Blur? That's weird" The Sword Wielder whispered to his teammates and Sasuke felt it was the best time to nod with his expression encased in amusement to it.
It was amusing to Naruto too.
(-)
"Unfortunately, The Chunin and Jounin are out on many missions and are not currently able to help but there is a Jounin and their own team quite soon… The best of the best!" As Iqada then stood up almost as if calling upon something his clenched hand then made contact with the ledge of his desk transmitting a certain amount of chakra somewhere.
"Such Physical Strength and Chakra Control too." Naruto was shocked that somebody this nervous could send a frightening aura like this.
The Courageous Uchiha remained apathetic throughout this situation.
"Well… Looks like we're working with some others." Keisuke mumbled.
While Akio looked calm towards the Physical Ability displayed by the Shinobi.
(-)
After about Four Minutes about Four Shinobi appeared in the centre of the room all wearing masks with one wearing a Jounin outfit of the Sadness Village too.
"Greetings Fear I expect that your mission went well or is there a possibility of failure for it?" Iqada questioned maliciousness in his tone but it was slight but Fear stayed calm.
"Of course Lord Iqada the moment we learnt of Konoha Shinobi coming to the Village we quickly got to the location of meeting." The Jounin Fear replied as he glared towards Akio through his mask with much contempt but it went unnoticed by most.
(+)
"Ah. It looks like you are Akio Senju a pleasure." Fear went in for a quick greeting but Akio then vanished appearing behind him a Kunai in his hand with the Senju twirling it.
"Is this normal?" The Senju asked his Hazel Eyes glowing as he looked in the direction of the Jounin but Fear only got away.
"It's only natural to test a Shinobi's Strength." Fear responded with not much worry about the issue he caused.
(-)
As Naruto examined the Shinobi in front of him with barely any curiosity with his unemotional expression staying.
"It's nice to meet you Naruto Uzumaki my name is Figure or that is what you can call me and I am quite shocked that Konoha would send Genin for such a significant mission." The Chunin stated with both his Light Blue eyes carrying an unmoved look.
"Well, it's not necessarily my fault that we were given this mission but please I want to be able to work with you nicely." Naruto then walked alongside Keisuke who went with his greeting to the other Shinobi and he looked messed up physically which was strange.
"Those weird questions." Keisuke mumbled following the Uzumaki while glancing around.
"There's no need to continue that." Naruto kept walking forward to the designated Hotel they were to stay in.
"No." Keisuke then vanished with Naruto merely sighing to his friend's actions.
(-)
Currently, Sasuke was traveling throughout the Village's forest after a meeting with a Chunin called Mantle the Uchiha chose to learn more about the town while he was there.
"There isn't anything too weird here most of the residents are probably sleeping considering that it's around 2:00 AM but still there would be more out and about." Sasuke sighed knowing that he wouldn't be able to figure out anything.
"It's probably best to get to the Hotel now then I can attempt a few more things after." As the Courageous Uchiha then leaped up.
(-)
"What are these?" Keisuke questioned a Shuriken in his grab as he carefully observed it with a few Symbols around it.
"There something that I made and been working on to tell that." Naruto stated with his gear and equipment placed on the table.
"It's called the Sealing-Shurikens there's a Seal Formula put inside it and all it requires is that you damage the opponent and the Seal contained in the Shuriken activates there are a few bad things about it." Naruto finished before grabbing a few more of these weapons.
"Take these Keisuke they can help in a fight." Naruto stated quickly tossing two more Shuriken before the turquoise-haired child then swiftly caught them.
"The Seals in them are the Strength Weakening Seal and the Durability Enhancement Seal and the last one… A Chakra Weakening Seal too." Naruto then completed packing all of his equipment inside the bag before walking to his room in the Hotel they were temporarily residing in with a calm expression.
"Thanks!" Keisuke smiled before looking around.
"Seriously I need to stop." The Sword Wielder thought.
(-)
The Next Day the Mission Continues too:
As Akio waited for his students to arrive he was currently with an annoying Fear who was with Shiko the Student that Keisuke met.
"Come on Naruto, Sasuke, and Keisuke where are all of you these people are stranger than all of you and that's unexpected." The Senju mused before glancing towards Shiko and Fear with frustration.
As Fear then directed his attention to Akio with a smile beneath the carefully made mask with different motives, to say the least, and they were still malicious and aggressive too.
"Is there a problem?" The Jounin asked.
"No." Akio simply replied not worried anymore.
(-)
As Naruto then leaped from the room landing near Akio with the normal composed and apathetic look on his face.
"Finally!" Akio thought quite happy that Naruto came.
(-)
Soon after Figure and Mantle arrived with Sasuke and Keisuke getting there too.
It was time to create their strategy to bring out the ones that took the Crucial Scrolls.
(-)
All of them sat in a meeting room of sorts with Fear and Akio stood in front with a map in the centre of the desk they were using.
"It's probably best if we start with the Last Crucial Scroll used to quickly lure out the opponents and catch them after." Mantle stated poetically.
"That would most likely give the enemy a better chance of taking the last out of three scrolls and they would not need to stay in the Village after." Sasuke chimed in collectively looking over the locations of the Village.
"No! Then the opponent would gain no reason to come out in the first place anyway!" Figure scoffed glaring towards the Uchiha with slight irritation.
"The opponent can come out if they realize that there isn't any other safe method to get out." Keisuke himself suggested annoyed by Figure already.
"What's that supposed to mean?" The Shinobi Shiko asked.
"More annoyances," Keisuke mumbled, "What I mean is there is a chance that the enemy taking the scrolls would go over to the Leader's Building wanting to learn where it is." Keisuke explained with frustration to the fact that he obtained more curiosity to the Shinobi he wanted to get away from.
"While that is a good strategy we could always be near the scrolls secretively and let the opponent think that we're not around." Mantle stated his tone enveloped in rhythm.
(-)
As Akio watched the conversation play out he noticed that Naruto wasn't in the meeting.
"Well looks like I get a chance to leave." The Senju thought excitedly before vanishing.
"This is perfect." The ninja Fear mused with relief and happiness.
(+)
The unemotional Uzumaki stood on the roof the wind traveling across quickly.
"It's now I realize that this plan is meaningless there never going to agree on anything." Naruto continued to watch the Village not necessarily caring about much in that moment.
"This isn't where you're meant to be now." Akio said standing near Naruto while smiling to the relaxing feeling of the area it was excellent and calm too.
"Sorry I can go now." Naruto was about to jump away to the Meeting Place.
"No it's fine I can give you your part in the strategy later." The Senju then disappeared in a Body Flicker quicker than normal.
(-)
As Naruto jumped from building to building he knew that he could get to the forest for some training.
(-)
The Uzumaki sighed as he made it towards the Hotel after much-needed physical training he noticed that his improvements were coming along quite great and that Keisuke and Sasuke were making their own skills more refined too thankfully.
(-)
The Next Day Mission Things sadly:
The Uzumaki arrived to the Meeting Place after he checked on both Keisuke and Sasuke and then noticing that they were already awake and left after.
The moment he entered through the window there was nobody in the room and there was a paper on top of the table.
The Battle Begins Let's Play
The Sheet read with much strangeness to it.
Then a Wind Style: Wind Dragon slammed into Naruto as it caused him to fall through the window shattering it in the process there was some sort of silhouette staring towards him with frustration.
As Naruto felt the wind crashing onto his face he then used a Durability Enhancement Seal before placing it onto his pouch as he span around quickly.
"This most likely protects them." Naruto calmly thought still alarmed by the intruder that could use such a strong jutsu in an instance with the Uzumaki now contemplating what to attempt for the moment.
"The Wind Dragon is much more damaging than the Gale Palm it would be greater to get away." Naruto, now prepared with his next needed action then activated the Gale Palm Jutus still falling the blast of wind sent him flying upwards towards a rooftop as he grabbed it.
Carefully traveling entirely on top of it the Crimson Haired Figure jumped up landing on a different smaller building with a slightly easier method to get himself out of the enemy's radar quicker.
With Naruto then dashing behind the arrays of tiles that were placed higher up like a barrier he then started reaching into his pouch as it went through countless weapons of Kunai's, Shurikens, and a few daggers he kept.
"Got it." The Uzumaki cautiously thought pulling out what he called the Kitsune Dagger it could easily mend itself if it got shattered which was why Naruto chose to bring it.
Then Naruto stood up completely ready to fight.
The Shinobi then landed as Naruto could now clearly make them out easier.
"It's Figure. Why is he trying to take me out anyway?" Naruto mused and without much hesitation, he sprinted forward his indifferent blue eyes wanting to finish the battle.
The first swing went by trickier with Naruto's left arm becoming less helpful than before with Figure stopping the Uzumaki's movements in an instance with the Unemotional Genin instantly attempting to deflect.
It failed sadly.
With Naruto's Kitsune Dagger now out of his grasp in simple moments.
"That was an unfortunate display of strength Naruto Uzumaki quite annoying to think that I thought you were a threat." Figure's mask was causing his expression to become unreadable but there was barely a trace of emotion in his tone the only thing contained inside it was madness it was frightening.
As Figure then removed his grasp on Naruto's arm before with much speed revealing a blade from his scroll.
"It looks like he's skilled with a Sword but there's a possibility it's a method to scare the Shinobi." Naruto was now clutching his left arm with his quicker healing it was becoming less frustrating with the Uzumaki then jumping up slowly Hand movements were made as he then used Gale Palm once more this time he swivelled around now obtaining the wanting to use Gale Palm and Momentum to enhance it.
With Figure not too worried about the Genin, stood there looking like he was awaiting something.
The Momentum Naruto gathered wasn't anything great but he knew that he was completely out skilled with this Chunin.
"Well… If this won't work then I'm most likely going to leave after." Naruto was aware that a Genin stood no chance taking on someone higher ranked than them but with the current winds as heavy as they were Gale Palmed Momentum was the best thing he could accomplish.
"It's quite meaningless to continue this fight but I would like to see what this technique's skill contains." Figure stated calmly as Naruto now much more near the roof pushed his hands forward directing the currents of wind below as heavy breezes went by.
Then as Naruto landed without thinking leaped away noticing the Kitsune Dagger but there wasn't any chance he could get it.
(-)
"This is annoying." Keisuke thought watching Shikon move to the left as the gauntlet in her hands shot more and more spikes towards him.
As Keisuke then flung them away with no trouble. The Sword he held helping him greatly in the situation anyway.
"Damn and that's not fair!" Shikon psychotically screamed quickly placing another motion with her hand the spikes now ingrained with Chakra with it increasing the speed of the points as Keisuke then dodged sprinting to the left.
"Okay, I know that the topics of weapons were the only class that I took seriously but… Spiked Shooting Gauntlets were not taught in that class anyway!" The Blade-Wielder thought as Shikon then appeared in front of him using a Body Flicker.
The Chunin like Shinobi attempted to grab Keisuke's sword but the Genin sent a kick directed it to their knee throwing them off their balance.
"Now!" Keisuke mused leaping up as he then prepared a technique the Obliterating Momentum.
It was similar to a slice but with simply a ripple of wind and strength but Keisuke applied it to his own stance.
The Windy Slash landed but Shikon lifted her hands blocking it with a slight bit of effort.
All that was there was pressure as Shikon's eyes widened in shock.
As Keisuke's sword was not there it was instead an added redirected current of Kunai.
"When was he able to use it?!" Shikon worriedly then examined the place as Keisuke was now behind them with his sword about to land the blow quicker.
Then the Shinobi's face formed a maniacal smile as Shikon's gauntlets were then removed as Keisuke's stance fell in that moment.
"Quite skilled Fear-Sensei was right this was gonna be fun." Shikon stated as they vanished.
(-)
As Sasuke leaped up dodging the Lightning Style: Lightning Surrounding Jutsu but sadly it was too late then the electricity started to enveloped him as it coursed throughout his body with the courageous Uchiha swiftly activating the Fire Style: Fire Ball Jutsu.
"This Lightning it's stronger than Keisuke's this is gonna take a while." With Sasuke then easily moving below a clenched hand as quickly Mantle then appeared as Sasuke picked up a kunai from the battle as he lodged it into Mantle's arm but the Shinobi then disappeared.
"Where's he going to appear now?" The Courageous Uchiha mused before pulling out hid darts preparing to throw them when needed.
"If I'm placing Chakra inside them it would take more trickiness to finish anyway." Then hastily the Uchiha awaited to come agitated.
Then Sasuke saw Mantle appear in front of him the Darts were tossed with the Velocity increasing swiftly the Uchiha went below now more calculated than before.
"The Darts would be trickier to dodge anyway." The attentive Uchiha was then met with a quickly delivered punch knocking him out easily.
(-)
"Something wrong Akio Senju anything?" The now crazed. Ferocious and infuriated voice of Fear questioned.
"There isn't no need to worry let's fight!" The Senju shouted with bloodlust.
A/N: Hi thanks for reading bye okay.
