36 ARRIVAL OF THE PRINCE

Barbarian continent is the largest continent on this world both in it's size and population. Almost all the population apart from Kids are warriors. This continent is rich in spiritual air, nourishing everyone from birth with simple breathing techniques. The adults have tough bodies akin to steel and strength similar to a monster. They have high healing capabilities and their endurance is second to none. They will fight to their last strength during the day with almost fatal injuries, but will recover completely by the next day for another fight. This continent has been plagued with wars between various tribes for centuries until a single clan rose up in power, the Kaminari clan.

The clan has been around for thousand of years on Barbarian continent and occupy the largest and prosperous state of Yutaka. The clan is known for their high battle strength and comprehension.

200 years ago the head of the Kaminari clan, Kira Kaminari, during his regular patrolling of his state, came across a strange tanned man roaming aimlessly. He can tell from his expressions and dressing that he is not a native of this place. So they arrested him after some fierce battle. The strange man used unique and strong techniques to knock out 3 of his strong bodyguards before he was captured. At first they tried to communicate with him, but they both spoke different languages. So the clan head Kira, summoned a Elder shaman from his clan to read his thoughts. The elder shaman spent 4 days before he was able to extract all the information he can and passed the knowledge and memories of the strange man to the clan head.

What the clan head Kira saw in those memories were battles. Unlike their brute barbarian style, the fights were based on strange energy called chakra. It felt to him like a supernatural power. He saw various clans of different bloodlines fighting among themselves. He also saw strange tailed beasts of immense size laying waste to hordes of enemies, but some of the god like men were able to fight against these gigantic beasts. He also learnt the chakra training and chakra control method from his memories. When he first time used the method, he was able to sense that the strange air that has always been around them is called chakra. But it is 10 times more richer and purer than the one he saw in his memories. He spent the next decade decoding all the memories of the strange person. With his high comprehension, he was able to replicate and improvise all the techniques he saw in his memories. Because of an accident from one of the jailor, the strange man escaped from his grasp.

Soon he selected some of the brightest members of his clan and loyal followers and started to teach them about chakra. With the presence of the rich chakra and talent they were able to show huge progress in their battle strength. When the clan members wanted to attack other tribes to extend their influence, he strictly declined their wishes. Convincing that the clan is still not strong enough to protect themselves from others, if they came to know about this chakra. So for the next 50 years much to the shock of the entire Barbarian continent, the Kaminari clan went into isolation and never left the Yutaka state. Fooling the world, that it is the order of their Elder shaman. Shamans were respected a lot in this continent, no matter which tribe they belonged to. So other tribes also didn't disturb them, as they have one less competition.

50 years of constant training and experimenting the clan was able to research various uses of chakra in different fields. They became proficient with sealing and medical arts too. By now, the strength of the clan surpassed all other clans and tribes. Adding to their barbarian physique, chakra, high battle comprehension and battle techniques, each and every member of the Kaminari clan was equal to a monster. The day they came from the isolation, is the day they shook the entire continent. Even though the clan head is almost nearing 80, because of the pure chakra and his barbarian physique, he still looked like someone in his 50's. He started invading other tribes surrounding Yutaka first. The barbarians have a unique rule of one on one, where the fate of the whole clan rests upon a single man. He challenged and fought almost all the battles on his own, spreading awe and terror to other territories. Some of the tribes joined the Kaminari clan willingly. Those that joined his clan on their own, were treated like his main clan. Soon other clans followed suit.

After 30 years of constant fights and challenges he was able to establish a strong empire on the continent. He passed his throne to his grandson, before revealing to him all the knowledge he saw in the strange man memories. Soon he passed away at 120 years. The second emperor of the barbarian continent Asahi Kaminari was even more shrewd than his grandfather. Since his clan position was firm, he started to teach other loyal clan and tribe members about chakra. As Each year passed by his strength and influence only started to grow. He also brought a lot of stability to the lifestyle of normal citizens, but still followed the traditional barbaran iron fist method. He ruled the empire well and under his reign the barbarian continent was 60% completely under the Kaminari clan. He passed away after 50 years of his reign. He was succeeded by his son Reo Kaminari, who ruled the empire for 40 years before passing away. Under his reign almost 85% of the continent was under the kaminari clan. He was then succeeded by his youngest son Hikaru Kaminari. Who is also the current ruler of the barbarian continent.

He was able to successfully occupy the entire Barbarian continent. After 20 years of his reign, all the flames of the previous wars died down and the barbarian continent slowly recovered his strength. He encouraged education and medicine building a lot of schools and hospitals. Trade and economy flourished under his reign. The entire Barbarian continent moved as a single behemoth under his reign. The previous Emperors always left documents about the Gods land which is also called shinobi continent. From the records he knew, that the land is rich in minerals and the chakra density is much less than here. He want to accomplish something that his predecessors didn't by occupying the shinobi continent. He sponsored huge funds and resources for adventurers and mercenaries to explore the mighty ocean in search of this continent. Every time, a new land is discovered he would send his Eldest son and commander in chief Akira Kaminari to annex these lands. Akira is the eldest of all his 12 sons. He is blessed with a divine body with superhuman strength and unparalleled endurance. He is also easily the strongest person in the Kaminari clan History. He is proficient not only in all elemental jutsu, but skilled in Kenjutsu and Fuinjutsu too. He is a war hawk but at the same time loved his soldiers just like his family. If even a single person of his is attacked, he would lay complete waste to his enemies. For this very reason the soldiers also will fight with all their strength under his leadership. Any land he occupied was completely plundered of its resources and the natives are relocated to the Barbarian continent. Only those with talent and skill are given a chance. Others are subjected to work as slaves in mines and fields.

After nearly 7 years of exploration, almost 400 islands were annexed by the Empire, bringing huge amounts of wealth, treasures and human resources to the Continent. Finally they were within 100 miles reach of Shinobi continent. They occupied a huge island that is on the eastern side of the shinobi continent. Akira halted his troops and stopped their advance. Telling them to set up military barracks and portal with the main land. They have been travelling for a long while and need a good night sleep before they venture forward.

Akira summoned his Garuda Eagle and got close to the borders of the shinobi continent. He can clearly see a strong fort and millions of soldiers in it, ready shoot him down if he took even a single step within their range. With one glance, he can tell these soldiers are complete professionals, compared to the one they occupied. They are strong but not as much as strong compared to his own. Their aura is a lot weaker than his soldiers. But he can clearly sense few chakra signatures that are really strong.

"I AM AKIRA KAMINARI, THE CROWN PRINCE OF KAMINARI EMPIRE AND THE COMMANDER IN CHIEF OF IT'S ARMIES. I WANT TO SPEAK TO YOUR LEADER OR REPRESENTATIVE."- Akira

Akira bellowed enough for all the people to hear him clearly. But most of them were surprised by his status as a prince. Then from the fort rose a giant thunderbird, that is stronger than his Garuda eagle. There are 5 people riding on top of it, with a young woman leading them. Akira has seen a lot of beautiful women, but he can vouch that none are beautiful than this young woman in front of him. They are Barbarians, they always respect the strong. So he didn't find it strange when a young woman is a representative of shinobi continent.

"My name is Ichika Uchiha, the supreme commander of shinobi continent forces. The four beside me are the kages of the strongest ninja villages on the continent. A san, Terumi, Rasa and Onoki. You guys really braved the mighty ocean and reached this place. But my sincere advice to you is to stop your military advances any further."- Ichika

"I can clearly sense those four behind you. They are nowhere strong as my assistants. If they are the strongest your continent can offer, then you people have no chance to resist my forces. Why don't you peacefully surrender to us. It will save a lot of time and lives for both us"- Akira

Just when the young woman Ichika was about to reply to him, he sensed a powerful ninja, approaching them while shouting which made all those present, almost lose their balance.

"ICHIKA UCHIHA, LET'S HAVE OUR 230th WEEKLY BATTLE. TODAY I WILL DEFINITELY DEFEAT YOU"- Madara
