Groaning I felt I was laying on something soft while I opened my eyes weakly, realizing I was in a makeshift tent, wincing while I sat up and took notice I had a set of bandages around my stomach, my shirt was taken off exposing countless scars from my father and his training. Grabbing my shirt I pulled it on while I got out of the tent after securing my gear. I could sense Yeona, Tatsuya, and Miko-sensei nearby maybe five meters or less.

Getting out of the tent while Miko-sensei looked at me," You alright Kaito?"

Nodding my head," Yes, are we going to continue? How long was I out for?"

They all narrowed their eyes at me, as Yeona growled," You were on death's door and you seriously are asking to continue?"

Miko responded," We can talk while we move. We will move at Chunin speeds can you handle that with your injury."

"Hai."


Speeding through the trees while Miko-sensei questioned," What was that technique?"

"A hijutsu of mine. No one else can use it except me. I really rather not explain further of that technique," focusing on the journey ahead while Tatsuya shrugged," Not going to pry. We all have secret techniques."

Making it to the check point I sensed countless life auras surrounding us as Miko-sensei tensed," Not good. We need to retreat."

A voice that made my stomach churn in fear stated," Sorry Miko Hyuga."

My bastard of a father stood under a tree while I tensed while he stepped forward, his own chakra radiating from his form while he looked at me," Well son it seems you are alive."

"No thanks to you jackass."

Glaring at him with my dojutsu activated while he chuckled," You are stronger without a doubt. How about you hand over that mission scroll otherwise you and your team will be killed. Just like the comrades of yours here."

He was right bodies were everywhere, all their souls already departed. Clenching my fist in anger while I glanced at my team and signed,' We need to go now!'

Miko-sensei stepped forward getting into a juken stance," Hattori Sutoraiki, Head Samurai and ranked as S class."

My father vanished standing beside me while I held my sword at his throat instinctively, my blade already drawn, while he mused," I heard you used duel knives Kaito. You also killed your old instructor."

I spat," You mean your loyal dog? Who should have known better to get between his master and son's little spat. THAT WILL END IN YOUR DEATH" My killing intent flooded to high Jounin levels, killing several of my father's men instantly. As angry as I am I wasn't going to direct any of my killing intent to my team. He merely looked slightly interesting while spirit fire curled from my form," Get out of here Yeona, Tatsuya, Miko-sensei. It is me he wants."

All of them froze in shock while my father chuckled amused," You don't stand a chance, but I suppose this is a good chance to see how far my wayward son has come. Except you are already injured."


" I highly recommend not underestimating me father."

I was standing behind him my blade already at his throat while he mused," Arrogant child."

His blade was suddenly in hand while he swung his blade and immediately sparks begun to fly as I fought against my father for the first time in six years. I knew he was hardly trying, vanishing in a shunshin I moved at top speeds pushing chakra through my limbs making me reach Jounin level speeds. In a clash of blades he pushed me back narrowly sending me into a tree, he spun his blade," I have seen enough from you Kaito. You have improved admittedly, either way I think it is time for you to come home."

Narrowing my gaze," Really now?"

My chakra was releasing now as well, when I formed hand-signs at the top speed," Seirei-jutsu: Ryū no ikari!(Spirit Technique: Wrath of the dragon(1)"

This time a dragon twice the size of the one I used on sensei roared to life and flew towards the bastard in front of me. It impacted where he stood and in the cloud of dirt I jumped back to my team whispering," Leave now."

The cloud of dust formed behind us covering us from view when our sensei glanced at me," You sure?"

"I need to release my true power, right now you three are holding me back. I wasn't kidding when I said I could use my mother's full power," I smirked lightly at the thought while Miko-sensei nodded," Alright then I will trust you and good luck."

Yeona seemed to protest while Tatsuya knocked her out quickly, giving him a thankful nod in appreciation, dropping my sword into its sheath I drew my knives, my father stepped out of the cloud of dust while he mused," Not leaving with your team with a mistake."

My dojutsu flashed as I smirked," I have full control of my mother's power."

My chakra seemed to grow stronger, the ground cracking and snapping beneath my feet


Taking a simple breath I released my full power, a blanket of my dense chakra covered the forest, my own father actually feeling fear when I hissed," Gōka no sekai(world of hell)(2)."

My chakra ignited the world into black and red flames, the flames of hell itself, the world begun to burn as the temperature spiked, the world seemed to turn to ash while he chuckled," So this is your real power, I must say you are a match for majority of solid A ranked nins or Samurai. Nothing greater then the elite Shinobi of A+ or above."

His chakra erupted from his form matching my own immediately while he vanished, instinctively bringing up my blades in an x to block the downwards strike when his strength broke through my guard, barely able to evade the strike a hand slammed into stomach sending me into a tree and disrupting my technique.

Coughing up blood he stepped towards me," That was an impressive ninjutsu. Those blades of your are quite... troublesome as well."

Throwing one of the blades in response he blocked it easily, throwing the other one I held the near invisible wire of them both pulling them backwards when my father appeared in front of me, a smirk on my face when he had ducked, my own blades narrowly missing my head when a kick slammed me into the air. I felt several of my ribs crack immediately. Slamming into the ground with impressive force I coughed out blood, my father standing above me his blade at my throat," Sorry son but you are coming with me."

Breathing out I whisper," Stop underestimating me."

Pitch black energy curled from my form covering me while I entered my strongest form. My eyes flashed at full power when I struck the ground beneath me creating a smoke cloud at the same time my father jumped back.
