Surprise appeared on Fujin's face as he heard the news from Monkey. Fujin glanced in the direction of Hokage Building and thought, ‘Now that's something I never expected to see. And to think that this happened without my direct intervention too. I wonder what happened to make Hiruzen, Koharu and Homura leave the council at the same time…’
Knowing their natures, Fujin could only th...

“Actually, I had another request.”
Tsunade, who was about to open the door, stopped. In order to help Fujin increase his cellular activity and learn how to control it, she had been with him since 7 in the morning. Even before that, she was making sure the room was still usable. She spent over 16 hours continuously helping Fujin. Yet, instead of letting her leave and rest for the nig...

“Not bad. I didn't expect such a room to be here…” Fujin muttered. The room had over a hundred seals inscribed intricately throughout it. The seals were hidden so carefully that Fujin didn't sense their presence despite visiting the hospital so many times. Only when his eyes fell on the room did he realize it.
Tsunade chuckled and said, “Every Fuinjutsu Grandmaster said so. I and...

“That leaves us with just Uchiha Sasuke.” Tsunade said.
Before anyone could say anything, Fujin said, “Actually, we don't need to think much about him either. His case is similar to Naruto's. The Uchiha clan was quite an eyesore to other villages during the previous wars. They would love nothing more than seeing the Uchiha clan completely wiped out.
As the next Clan Leader...

“I don't agree with your observations.”
The eyes in the room turned towards Ibiki who didn't agree with the Hyuga Jounin. A frown appeared on the Hyuga's face as Ibiki said, “In the preliminaries, he showed extreme immaturity by trying to kill a member of his own clan. Someone who loses his temper so quickly isn't capable of becoming a team leader. He might lead the entire team to ...

The reason why Fujin felt the tactic of declining any requests until Hiruzen voluntarily offered something was useless was rather simple. He was no longer just an upcoming ninja who could lead Konoha's forces in the future. Despite his young age, he had already become such a ninja.
As such, there was no longer any need for Fujin to scheme, play games or barter to get what he wanted. He ...

Fujin's words caught Hiruzen and his students by surprise. Unlike Hiruzen, who expected Fujin to extort something in exchange for this favor, Jiraiya and Tsunade weren't familiar with this side of Fujin.
They didn't expect anyone from the younger generation to reject a request made by Hiruzen. While the two of them did the same several times, it was different as they only did so after f...

“He wields the fabled Rinnegan, the eyes of the Sage of Six Paths.”
Shock and disbelief appeared on Jiraiya's face. He couldn't believe his ears! He thought, ‘Rinnegan? Nagato? Are you still alive?’
Tsunade was shocked as well. She had never heard about anyone possessing the Rinnegan. Being shocked by its appearance was natural. However, Tsunade and Hiruzen noticed that ...

Tsunade and Jiraiya stared at their old Sensei for a long time. They wanted to scold Hiruzen for letting things deteriorate to such an extent, but both could feel the sincerity on his face, accompanied by guilt and regret. Unfortunately, neither his guilt nor his regret could undo his mistake. The Uchiha Clan, one of the two founding clans of Konoha, had been betrayed by the very same village t...

A few hours after Sun rose, Hiruzen strolled into the Hokage Building. Unlike the previous times, he was completely relaxed. He thought, ‘It's been so long since I didn't have many responsibilities. I got a short respite when Minato succeeded me. It's a shame that it ended so quickly…’
Even though he was far weaker and in tremendous pain, not having the pressure of what came with ...

‘He k… he kill… he killed 658 ninjas? And another 83 died… from the traps he placed?’ Shizune completely lost her composure. She couldn't even form her thoughts properly.

“So Fujin was the one who forced Roshi to use the Tailed Beast Bomb in a foreign country…” Tsunade muttered in disbelief.

[A/N: The next four chapters are sort of a recap. Take a break if that's not what you prefer to read.]
Shikaku started by telling Tsunade a bit about Fujin's younger days. Tsunade and Shizune listened with interest but were slightly surprised. Shizune thought, ‘That's weird. Seeing what Fujin achieved at such a young age, I thought his talent would be so extreme that it would dwarf Kak...

Hiruzen was left in shock when he heard of the various events that had happened. From Kusagakure accepting the most unfair agreement he ever saw, Fujin setting fire to Otogakure and marching on Sunagakure, to solving the long unresolved mysteries surrounding the deaths of Minato and the Third Kazekage, Hiruzen didn't anticipate either of those events occurring.
What shocked Hiruzen most...

“Yeah, let us sell this information too.”
The entire council looked at Fujin weirdly. Other than Shikaku, not a single person expected Fujin to say something like this. Even Tsunade and Jiraiya looked at Fujin in a new light.
Fujin explained, “Kumogakure and Iwagakure will pay a high price to learn about a threat that could kill their Kage or kidnap their Jinchuriki. We co...

‘Sell the information regarding the Third Kazekage's death to Iwagakure and Kumogakure?’ Hiashi was intrigued.
He analyzed for a few moments and realized, ‘Yeah, why not? Even though this has nothing to do with them, they would be curious to know how someone that strong suddenly went missing. To ensure nothing similar happens to their Kage, they'd be willing to spend a fortune.

Despite all their experience, rank and status, Arisa and Yura lost composure for a moment. The sight was just too terrifying. Even so, they quickly gathered themselves and hid their feelings. Of course, everyone in the room had already noticed the change in their expression.

As Fujin walked towards the door, his annoyance increased since Naruto didn't stop ringing the bell. He opened the door and gazed at Naruto. Before he could say anything, Naruto said, “Fujin! I finally see you. Can you train me like you said earlier? I want to improve my Wind jutsus further!”
Sasuke, who had just entered the compound, was annoyed even further. Naruto asked what he w...

In his house, Sasuke sat alone in complete silence, his mind occupied by what he had just learnt. He couldn't believe what the young Uchiha kids said and even confirmed the same with one of the Anbu ninjas watching over the compound. His shock increased even further.

Fujin wasn't too surprised by Tsunade's answer. The soul was extremely mysterious. Fujin was already surprised to learn that Tsunade knew which parts of the soul were responsible for maintaining consciousness. To an extent, Konoha had already learnt about the basic features of a soul, which explained how Hiruzen managed to stay alive.
However, there was much they didn't know about the s...
