Prologue: The Wise Watcher

## The Pure Land ##

An pale-skinned old man with horns coming from his forehead, a red marking on his forehead and brown hair sat in a lotus position wearing a pure white kimono with black magatama markings on it's collar and back. His eyes were closed and using his powers, he was watching over the world he had once lived in. As he scanned the Elemental Nations, the leading forces who had weaponized the energy meant to help and used it to hurt, he came across Konoha, the only one of the villages who wished for peace and to stop the endless bloodshed. He decided that whoever he would pass his power onto would come from here, the only place with any hope of achieving peace. He formed the Ram seal, created an astral form and descended to Konoha.

## Konohagakure, Hi no Kuni ##

As he walked by the hospital, he heard a scream coming from nearby, and instinctually turned, staff in hand, ready to attack. He then remembered and realized two things: one, he wasn't there physically, just astrally, and two, the sound was a mother giving birth. Interested, he floated to the hospital, and saw an Uchiha couple holding a baby. The mother, Hiromi Uchiha, had tears but was smiling while holding a newborn child in her arms, and the father, Reiko Uchiha, was hugging his wife while also smiling. The baby was healthy, with jet-black hair and soft brown eyes. Hagoromo activated his powers and saw that the infant's body was well-developed, even for a young child, almost abnormally strong. He checked the infant's chakra reserves and.. woah, wait, WHAT?! They were already the level of a.. what do you call them? Those kids who have only recently graduated from that strange Academy and have become shinobi? Oh yeah, Genin! His chakra reserves, even though this kid is an infant, are much bigger than normal! Hagoromo was intrigued by this child. Deciding that he would watch over this child and see if he had the spirit and personality of Hagoromo's biological son, Ashura, Hagoromo began leaving. But as he departed, he heard Hiromi Uchiha say one last thing: her son's name. She said, "I'll name you Senshi. Senshi Uchiha, my little warrior." Hagoromo smiled, ever so slightly, and as he left, said, "Hopefully, you'll be the person I'm looking for. See you soon, Uchiha Senshi.", and as he passed through the door (A/N: He's a ghost, remember?), he could've sworn he heard infant Senshi cooing in reply.
