Reborn in Naruto As Madara's Grandson

Chapter 11: Unlocking Chakra

Another year passed in the blink of an eye,

Izuna and Shisui turned four this year. It is the month of October as four months passed by since the birth of Itachi. Fugaku threw out a clan-wide celebration party as every clansman from old to young was involved in the celebration. The majority of my time passed in escaping from the clutches of Aunties and Grandmas who like to pull my cheeks.

Last week, Shisui celebrated his fourth birthday and only family members were invited to the celebration. I got to tease Shisui a lot this time.

I was very excited today and was unable to hold my excitement as a smile would bloom on my face from time to time. Because today was the day, father promised to take me out to training grounds to awaken my chakra. My training can start now and I will be able to grow stronger and surpass everyone one by one.

"Nii-san, that's creepy. Stop smiling like that."

"."

"Shisui have you taken a pledge or something to break my sweet dream. Today, both of us will awaken our Chakra which means we will be able to become a real Ninja."

A cute smile bloomed on Shisui's face as he curled up his lips and smiled eagerly,

"Yes, I will become the best ninja in the world and would make Uchiha clan proud."

I sighed and shook my head. In the original story, you were used and disposed off by Danzo, thus that dream of yours was left unfulfilled. But in this timeline, you have me I will help you rise to become one of the top powerhouses of the world. I promise you, Shisui.

"So, are both of you ready?"

Our thoughts were interrupted by Uncle Yagami who came to pick us up.

"Where is my father, Uncle Yagami?"

"Oh! Akira went to the Ninja weapons store to pick up some Chakra papers. We will test your Chakra nature too while we are at it, so we can train you more effectively in your Chakra Natures."

Yagami replied as he led us out of the Uchiha Clan compounds. I stared curiously around as I asked Uncle Yagami,

"Uncle Yagami, why are we moving out of the clan compounds. Won't we awaken our chakra in Uchiha training grounds?"

"Yes, father why are we moving out from the clan compounds."

We were about to awaken your Chakra in the Uchiha compounds but Hokage-Sama requested to watch the Chakra awakening of the genius of Uchiha in his presence as goodwill towards the Uchiha clan. So, your uncle Fugaku would also be present.

I thought about this matter and snorted in my mind,

"This is yet another plot from that Danzo. He wanted to test the potential of the new generation of Uchiha and wanted to detect the threat we possess to him. I am sure it was he who requested the Hokage to watch us while he secretly monitors us from the dark."

"Uncle, why the Hokage-sama wanted to watch some kids like us awaken their Chakra to strengthen the bond with our clan? This doesn't make any sense" I probed.

"Yes, Father how come a powerful shinobi like Hokage-sama have time for us little kids?" Shisui chimed in.

I gave a mental thumbs-up to Shisui, 'Shisui, Good Job!'

Yagami hesitated for a while before he spoke,

"Apparently, from what I heard from Fugaku, this was the idea of one of the village elders during the annual Village meeting of heads of various Clans and after some thoughts, the Hokage and Fugaku agreed to it. So, here we are."

I nodded my head as I thought,

'Being recently appointed as a Clan Head, Fugaku is still a Green-horn but he will learn over time about the intricacies of politics and schemes of the Village elders.'

Yagami led us to the Training Ground three of the Village. Whenever I passed by that huge Hokage Mountain carving on the Hill, I would always be reminded of the reality and cruelty of this world and warn myself to prepare myself well.

We soon reached the village where I spotted my father discussing something with Fugaku.

Fugaku had short, brown hair that reached to his shoulders and onyx-colored eyes. He had the ever-present stern on his face which made the crevices near his chin more visible. He wore the standard jounin flak jacket, along with a black shirt with the Konoha Military Police Force symbol on the shoulders, shin-guards, and a black, open front apron with a white diamond pattern on the bottom.

He noticed our presence and nodded to Yagami.

'Would he ever smile in his life' I wondered as I watched his interaction with my father.

After around fifteen minutes of wait, the entourage of Hokage arrived with four Anbu Guards who hid as soon as they reached the Training Ground.

"Sorry for my late arrival. I had some necessary work to tend so I wasn't able to make it in time."

The Hokage greeted Fugaku and my father as he laughed heartily. I was able to feel a chilly gaze of a ravenous wolf upon him. I shivered as I looked around to check for the source.

'So, Danzo is here too. Too bad, I can't use my Sharingan to locate him. I guess I can sense negative emotions directed towards me, maybe a trait of my mutated Sharingan or these are just my natural instincts. No matter what it is, I would be a lot helpful in future battles as I would be able to sense hostile intention directed towards me.'

In a nearby bush,

Danzo was surprised for a second when he intently stared the older Uchiha kid and the kid who began to look around seemingly searching for something.

'The senses of this kid are very sharp. Maybe he is a sensor type ninja. My root is lacking sensor type nins, he would be a good collection to my root. But before that I need to see his potential for myself, after all, I don't want someone useless to enter my root meant only for elites among elites.'

In the training ground, after the pleasantries were exchanged Hiruzen spoke,

"Let's cut the chase and return to the matter. I am sure the kids are excited to awaken their Chakra. So, we shan't keep them waiting."

Akira and Yagami nodded as they urged us to move to the center of the training ground.

"Shisui, you go first I want to see your awakening with my eyes first" I spoke to Shisui.

"Ok! Nii-san as you wish." Shisui nodded and moved towards the center of the field.

Yagami followed Shisui as Shisui sat cross-legged on the ground. Yagami forked out a scroll from his pocket and gave it to Shisui.

"Read it carefully Shisui! After you have read and memorized the contents, close your eyes, and began to follow the instructions written on the scroll. Father will help you during the process, so don't worry about anything."

"Yes, father! I will do as you say."

Shisui took the scroll and began to memorize its content. Meanwhile, my father took out a scroll from his pocket and handed it over to me.

"Izuna, this is for you, memorize it well and I will help you later during the process."

I nodded and took the scroll. My memory was pretty sharp as my mental age was higher and my soul was stronger than an average person courtesy of God for reincarnating me with intact memories.

It took me only a minute to memorize the contents of the scroll, but just for bluffing Hokage and Danzo I took a whole eight-minute to read the scroll and returned it to my father.

Fugaku and Hiruzen were stunned by this as it takes fifteen minutes even for a genius child to memorize the entire Chakra Pathway cycle and other details of the scroll.

Approximately, after two minutes later than me, Shisui was done too as he handed over the scroll to Yagami.

"I am done too, father! I have memorized all of the contents of the scroll."

Fugaku and Hiruzen were perplexed again. One kid was fine and could be treated as once a genius in the century but for two to appear at the same time.

Hiruzen sighed as he thought,

'Times are changing fast, geniuses are appearing one after another. First Orochimaru, then Minato, then Kakashi, and now these two. Each of them is more monstrous than the other. Guess, I would have to retire from the position of Hokage and pass the will of fire of the First Hokage to future generations. I wonder how things will turn out in the future with the birth of so many geniuses.'

Yagami nodded as he said,

"That's my genius boy. Now start to follow the instruction written on the scroll."

Shisui closed his eyes, Yagami places his hand on Shisui's back as he released a surge of Chakra inside Shisui's Chakra pathway.

"Shisui, use this surge of Chakra to direct your Chakra from your naval region and follow the pathway written on scroll to complete a cycle."
