The Strongest Uchiha - Volume 1 Chapter 6 First Day Of Training
Shortly after the meeting with the clan head Itsu and his father arrived at their home, Itsu left his father to explain the situation to his mother and left to go to his room and have an early night, since the events of the day had left him exhausted.
Physically he was perfectly fine but mentally he was too worn out to do anything else, even with the many advantages his body had thanks to god he could still be mentally overwhelmed.
Itsu lay down in his bed and quickly drifted off to sleep, his training would start tomorrow and he would need to get up early.
After a nice and comfortable rest in his bed Itsu woke up at the crack of dawn just as the sun was about to rise, he quickly put on a black t-shirt with the Uchiha clan symbol on the back and a pair of black shorts, Itsu always preferred the colour black to any other colour.
After he was dressed he picked up his kunai pouch, he had 20 special kunai with the thunder god seal on the handle so he could teleport to each one, he wanted to ask the third for more materials so he could inscribe more kunai with the thunder god seal.
After double checking he had everything he was about to run out the door when he sensed something coming his way, he caught it and saw that it was a container with some sandwich’s inside, he looked up to see his mother with a smile on her face.
“Have a good day and make sure you eat all the sandwiches. Or else”, Itsu could see a smile on his mother’s face but he knew that if he didn’t finish his food like a good boy then he would definitely be punished.
After running across building rooftops he had managed to arrive at the hokages office in a short period of time, he was about to walk in when he was stopped by two anbu, “Are you Itsu Uchiha?” Itsu merely nodded in response. “Follow us”
Itsu didn’t even get the chance to respond before the anbu started moving, they were going quickly but Itsu could tell that they weren’t going their full speed because they assumed he couldn’t keep up with them, they had underestimated him.
The two anbu black ops had led Itsu to a training field near the academy, before the two could leave Itsu spoke to them, “Are all anbu as slow as you two, if so then I’m quite disappointed in the capabilities of your organisation”
They didn’t respond as they were trained to not show any emotion in their voices or their expressions, but Itsu could still tell that they were annoyed, before they could say anything the third called out to Itsu “Come here young Uchiha, we have much to do and time waits for no one”
And on cue the two anbu left without a word, Itsu began walking towards the middle of the training field and saw the third standing their with his hands behind his back and in traditional training robes.
“Before we begin I will ask you a question and how you answer will determine what happens next”, Itsu has a pretty good idea of what the third was going to ask but Itsu was prepared for his questions.
“How did you learn the fourths space time ninjitsu?” That was the question that Itsu was waiting for, “Well sir I learned it from one of the books in the library at the Uchiha compound, as you know we Uchiha can copy any technique we see with our sharingan, even if we cannot use it we can write it down and record it so other members of our clan can learn the techniques”
What Itsu said was only partly true, there were many techniques written in the library that were copied by the sharingan but the fourths teleportation technique was not one of them, unfortunately the third has no way to check as an outsider cannot go into the library much less enter the compound without a reason, even if he does somehow manage to check Itsu could always just write down the technique in one of the books and place it in the library.
No one would know since barely any Uchiha enter the library, all the Uchiha spend most of their time training and trying to either awaken or master the sharingan, they believe that awakening the sharingan at an early age makes you talented, it doesn’t because awakening the sharingan relies on strong emotions and not talent.
As soon as a Uchiha awakens the sharingan they get c.o.c.ky believing that with their eyes they are invincible, even though there are many ways to counter the sharingan. The library is basically never used but they would still never let an outsider in as it would go against the Uchihas pride.
After hearing what the young boy had to say the third had to sweep the matter under the rug as he had no way to check inside the Uchiha library and it is also possible for a Uchiha to be able to copy the fourths technique and record how it works using the sharingan so the child’s explanation is not impossible.
“Does anyone else in your clan know how to use the fourths space time ninjitsu?”, The third asked with a slightly more serious expression on his face, having multiple Uchiha teleporting around the village would cause trouble.
“No, not to sound arrogant but it even took me a long time to grasp the teleportation technique, I doubt that that there are any Uchiha apart from me who are able to actually use that justu”
What Itsu said wasn’t a lie, even with his large amount of talent it still took him months of training and trying to properly master the technique, so it’s doubtful to him that anyone else could actually learn it. “Well now that that’s out of the way lets begin, since you can already use the fourths jutsu I can assume that I don’t need to teach you chakra control instead I think the most important thing we can do for you is fighting experience, you’ve never fought a strong opponent and so the best way to improve is to fight someone stronger than you”
Itsu nodded, he agreed with the thirds evaluation. “Before we begin we will spar without using jutsus or enhance our selves with chakra, you will also not use your sharingan, this will purely be a fight using technique”
After the third finished his explanation Itsu launched himself forward at him, he sent a barrage of punches at him but the third was blocking it all while only using one hand while the other was behind his back, Itsu wasn’t upset about this, he was happy to finally fight a strong opponent.
The third wasn’t planning on attacking Itsu since he was just a child, the third wanted to show Itsu the difference between them and show that not matter how talented he was he couldn’t make up for the fact he was a child so his physical capabilities were limited.
But what he didn’t expect was that with each punch Itsu threw at him the next punch would come at him faster and sharper, the third hokage couldn’t believe what he was seeing, this child was improving with every attack that he threw at him. Never in all his years had he seen a shinobi with such incredible talent.
Itsu wasn’t even aware of the fact that he was subconsciously improving himself with every attack but he did notice the the hokage had to put more effort into blocking his attacks, Itsu saw a moment of weakness and sent a kick towards the hokages lower abdomen, his attack was still blocked but it was blocked by his other hand, now the third had to block Itsus attacks using both hands, Itsu was thrilled that he managed to make the hokage block his attacks with both hands even though he was only a child.
The third didn’t even know what to think anymore, when he first saw Itsu he thought that he was incredibly intelligent and then he saw him use a justu that not even he could master, the third believed that taijutsu would mostly likely be the child’s weakness but he was wrong again, at this point the hokage was pondering this child’s future, with this type of talent even the first hokage himself pales in comparison. If he became an enemy in the future could the combined efforts of all the villages even be able to stop him?
