The Kyuketsuki Clan

'Ahh... What is going on? Did I die?'

'Looks like these old geezers still got me in the end.' *mental sigh*

Daniel Kronia, a businessman and the biggest genius of the century, was killed by the old reigning families that didn't want to lose their power and money.

He could have started a new era single-handedly if he was given more time, yet here he was sitting and pondering in this depressing void.

At 6 months after birth, he could read, write and speak coherently.

On his first birthday, he was able to understand the basic concepts of math and physics.

Completing the curriculum of a university at the age of 5 and becoming a multi-millionaire at 8 years of age, was nothing spectacular in his mind, it was just given.

At 16 years of age, he commanded the biggest business empire that ranged from the car industry to household appliances.

Yet there were family businesses that reached much deeper than money ever could. Family ties and blood relations were planted for centuries in governments around the world, the hidden bosses, and families of the world.

These families weren't happy to see the rise of yet another rival to their wealth, and when the opportunity presented itself, they took it.

'Looks like I let my guard down after having too much peace from them.'

Daniel was annoyed and depressed at the same time. It was his chance to change the world, to make an impact that would be written in the history books, and yet he failed because of his carelessness.

But he calmed down and analyzed his current situation, it was one of the many abilities that allowed him to climb the business world this fast. Being unfazed by any emotions in his decision-making.

'But where am I? Is this hell... or just the afterlife? It doesn't seem to be that bad after all.'

It was pitch-black, nothing could be seen and nothing could be felt, but that wouldn't be like this for too long.

'What is this? Why do I feel satisfaction and this feeling of power and ecstasy?'

...

"Lady Kyuketsuki, it seems that you have lost some of your blood essences."

The blood essence is like the life core for vampires, their bodies will weaken further the more they lose. Everyone has blood essence but no one relies on it as much as the vampires.

"I know, I felt it being absorbed by my child. *sigh* Is it time for me to also go?"

A woman with smooth and silky white hair said. Her skin was pale-white and her red eyes shone even through the darkest of nights. Her face is so beautiful even cosmic beings would be jealous. Not only that, but her alluring charm only added to her beauty and ignited desire and admiration.

"My Lady, do not be afraid because death is our salvation."

"I know, I also seek it, and yet I want to remain by the side of my child."

"We will take care of his Highness, please be unconcerned."

"I know, Kisho, I know." The lady said while gazing melancholically at her belly.

...

'Is this thing nourishing me? How can I obtain more of it? I have a feeling that if I get more of this, I will be able to leave this place.'

It did not take long for him to figure it out, and mediation seemed to be the answer. So after trying it out and getting seemingly more of this nourishing substance, he started to absorb it like crazy.

...

"Milady, what is happening, are you not feeling well?"

Lady Kyuketsuki was rapidly losing her blood essence, it was so fast that it even started to affect her appearance. Her skin was starting to wrinkle. It seemed to be straight out of a horror film, her hair started to lose its shine, and she was getting visibly thinner.

"Haha, Kisho, looks like my time has come for our clan will rise yet again in these troubled times."

"Milady, please do not talk, I will get Naoki here!"

But before he could call the medical specialist, suddenly Lady Kyuketsuki fell. He was too late to react, but he directly went to the side of his majesty.

"Kisho, do not worry. With my death, our clan will usher into a new era. Please tell him that I love him and I already decided on a name for him. It will be Akira, Akira Kyuketsuki, please convey it to him."

'Huh? The child? It can not be? He is absorbing that much of milady's blood essence? How can that be true, that much blood essence of royalty shouldn't be absorbable by anyone.'

"Yes, your Majesty. We will take care of your child to the best of our abilities, he will be our new king and ruler."

"May death lead me to salvation!" whispered Lady Kyuketsuki in her dying breath.

"May death lead you to salvation!" Kisho said and closed her eyelids that still were open, but now without the shining gaze.

Not long after her demise, a ball of blood started to form in front of her stomach and was slowly starting to form into a human form.

He was about 187 cm and had hair that reached his neck. He had a domineering yet unemotional and regal demeanor that inspired awe and respect. His skin was pale-white and he was naked. His scarlet red eyes and white hair that matched his mother's only added to his otherworldly charm.

He looked around and fixated his gaze on Kisho.

...

'What is happening? My body, I am starting to feel it again, but somehow I feel so much stronger. What is only going on?'

After he was able to see his surroundings, he looked around. He saw a man that looked young, but his instincts told him that he shouldn't judge this person like that. He just watched him.

Kisho was surprised to see such a young and handsome man being formed so suddenly. But he could already imagine what happened and who he was.

"Greetings, Prince Akira!" Kisho bowed down and greeted his new master.

The handsome man was indeed the child of Lady Kyuketsuki. After absorbing her blood essence, he developed an adult body and mind that shouldn't be possible, but here he was.

'Prince Akira? Looks like he is talking to me. Was I reincarnated? But I feel so strong and different, what is going on? Let's try to fish for information.'

"What is your name?"

"This lowly one's name is Kisho."

'Looks like I was reborn into a noble family that has a hierarchical structure. Hmm... seems like I don't need to be too careful with him. But I should learn from my mistakes, you can never be too careful'

"How was I born and what is the situation now?"

After some minutes, the now-named Akira was enlightened.

'Looks like I absorbed my mother, it is unfortunate but nothing I can do. Looks like we also have a library, I should probably visit to understand the world I am living in now.'

After deciding, he told Kisho to lead him to the library, he arrived shortly after and was surprised to see the buildings there.

'Looks like we are not rich. These buildings seem to be common stone buildings without any decorations. It also looks a bit deserted.'

He made tons of observations on the walk, already deciding on some countermeasures. But he couldn't do with what little information he had, so first, he should read about this world's history.

...

'What? This... isn't this the World of Naruto from the anime? Chakra and clans like Uchiha and Senju also exist here, just like many other smaller clans, but there aren't any existing villages. Is this the time before the creation of villages? Maybe... this isn't so bad.'

Daniel Kronia had tons of business with anime studios, so he decided to delve into the topic himself. Naturally, he watched the anime "Naruto" and remembered every single detail even after watching it just once.

In some short seconds, he finalized countless plans to get stronger or how to obtain certain opportunities.

'But I know that there aren't any vampire-like creatures existing in the anime? Has this to do with my rebirth, or were they just killed before the start of the anime? But this isn't so important for now. I am here and this should be enough to lead the clan to prosper.'

The Kyuketsuki-Clan was the hegemon of the Naruto-World before the introduction of Chakra, but after Hagoromo shared it with other people, and its fast-spreading, the Kyuketsuki Clan was slowly dying out. Especially since they weren't really nice to humankind.

Their Clan needs the blood of humans to stay alive and not hunger and with their stronger and advanced physique as well as other powers, it was easy to capture some humans. But it was increasingly getting harder to do so since many humans learned how to use Chakra and began to counter the Clan.

The problem was that humans couldn't mate with vampires to achieve a vampire that could use chakra, and Hagoromo also didn't share Chakra with any vampire since he decided that they aren't doing any good to mankind.

Many of their clan tried many methods to achieve the usage of chakra but all of them died, and like this, the clan was slowly dying out. Now left with only about 50 clan members.

'This needs some experimenting, it surely should be possible to achieve the usage of chakra, and if not I have several other methods. Also, a visit to the Chinoike-Clan would be profitable since they are able to manipulate liquids with high iron concentrations, but we would need enough strength first. Haha, I feel like a child again, building something from nothing.'

"Looks like my journey begins here!" said the Prince of the Kyuketsuki-Clan, Akira Kyuketsuki.
