The Uzumaki And Kurogane Clan - Chapter 5
When he entered the door, Kira was surprised by the sheer amount of scrolls in the place. Just a look at it and Kira concluded that this should be the whole Uzumaki Clan legacy.
‘This should be enough for Naruto to rebuild the whole Uzumaki clan’ Kira thought as Naruto was the only descendant of Kushina, thus he was one of the last Uzumakis alive and the rightful owner of all this.
He also found the scroll with the technique of the Yondaime Hokage, the Flying Thunder God Technique.
While Kira was rummaging through the scrolls, Naruto was absentmindedly walking on the second floor of the Mansion, the empty rooms that he passed by caused tears to fall from his eyes.
“If my parents were alive, would I be living here with them?” Naruto said while walking, he was just imagining what it would have been like if he had his parents alive.
As he passed what he thought was his parent’s bedroom, a strange feeling started to swell inside of him, the door of the room next to it was ‘calling’ him.
When he opened the door and saw what the room was like, he fell to his knees while crying hard. What he saw was a baby room, toys neatly organized, a baby rib, it was obvious that this should have been ‘his’ room.
After crying for a moment, he got up and reached a small table with a picture on it, taking the picture in his shaking hands, Naruto saw his father smiling while hugging his mother from behind, he could see the smile of his mother while touching her big belly.
Tears started to flow again, he could ‘see’ the happiness and excitement that the picture contained, the hopes of aspiring fathers, and the love they had for their family.
When Kira finally found Naruto, he was still hugging the picture, so he let him alone until he let everything out. ‘I will make sure that you live a good life Naruto, you will not suffer more. That’s a promise’ thought Kira, moments like this made him remember that Naruto was just a child in need of care and love.
Although he was his brother in all but blood, in the end, what Naruto needed the most was a parental figure, someone to guide him, someone to look up to.
Also, while going through the scrolls in the hidden basement, aside from scrolls of Jutsus and techniques of the Clan, he found information about who he is.
‘The Kurogane Clan, the shadow of the Uzumaki’s’ that’s what Kira is, or at least, that is his origin, the Kurogane Clan were, to say bluntly, a vassal clan of the Uzumaki’s, whose job was to protect it from the shadows. Because of it, there was no record or information on the clan outside.
He also found that the Uzumaki’s were destroyed because of the conflict that started before the other villages attacked.
The Shirogane Clan originated from the Kurogane’s.
The story that he read in the scroll talked about how once, the Kurogane Clan members found an especial treasure outside, this treasure was really powerful because it could give a special bloodline to someone.
In a world where people with a bloodline were more powerful than people without one, this was a heavenly defying treasure. At least, it should have been, but after some time, the people with this bloodline started to show side effects, they lost their sanity fast, becoming murdering machines that just wanted to kill everything.
Because of this, the Kurogane Clan head ordered to ‘put down’ the person who lost his sanity, and ordering everyone who had this bloodline to be put under arrest until they found a method to solve this problem.
The thing that he didn’t imagine, was that his young brother used this opportunity to gather all those afflicted with madness. Manipulating them to rise against the Clan head, he started a coup so he could get the position of Clan Head, going as far as changing his surname to Shirogane.
In the end, the ‘war’ that arose within the clan ended with all those with the bloodline dead, the traitor missing and the Clan strength dropping significantly.
When Shirogane lost, he wasn’t happy, so he used the opportunity, and manipulating some information, managed to convince four villages to attack Uzushiogakure, as they were too strong and thus a ‘threat’.
This is the reality of the destruction of the village and clans of the two boys.
From the survivors, the ones mentioned in the scroll were Naruto’s mother, the Uzumaki princess. and Kira’s parents.
When he found the truth, tears ran from his eyes, even if Kira never knew his clan or village, the fact that they were destroyed was a high blow. ‘Why am I crying’ Kira thought, after all, he was a reincarnation, not the original Kira.
‘So I truly fused with the original soul of this body,’ it was clear that he had changed, he was no longer the person he was before, but instead, he was Kira, Kira Kurogane, in every sense of the word.
The information of the Kurogane Clan described how the members of it were talented in both Ninjutsu and Genjutsu, their Kekkei Genkai made them Chakra batteries as they could absorb the Chakra in the environment, even with clones absorbing the Chakra and passing it to the main body.
‘Isn’t this what Naruto did with his Shadow Clones?’ Kira compared this new information with what he remembered of the anime.
After that, he found a small scroll, that had his name on it. after opening it, he started reading. ‘The Kurogane Clan are the protectors of the Uzumaki’s, because a debt of gratitude, the whole Clan decided to become their shadows. Always remember this, as a member of the Clan, protect those that you wish, even with your life, and make sure that the Uzumaki’s bloodline continues to exist, for that is the least a member of the clan should do” after that, there were more words “And if you are reading this my little Kira, remember that your mother and me will always love and be proud of you, no matter what your way is, also, a little advice from an experienced ninja, always maintain trump cards, it will keep you alive, and never reveal your true strength to someone you can’t trust with your life.
Kira finished reading it, and tears continued flowing, ‘Thank you’ he said, he didn’t notice, but just like Naruto, he also had many feelings bottled up inside of him that just now surfaced.
After that, he took everything in sealings scrolls and went to search for Naruto.
When Naruto finished, Kira went to him, and with a hand in his shoulder asked: “Are you all right Naruto?”, “Yes, everything is fine,” said Naruto.
“It’s time to go”, to Kira’s words, Naruto just nodded, and taking the picture with him, left the Mansion.
When they were outside the mansion, Naruto activated the seals again, and after giving a last look to his ‘house’ he bowed to it and with Kira’s company left the place.
