Chapter 6:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Author's Notes:

Dan Kato died in World War II Shinobi, and Tsunade took Shizune as an apprentice.

Due to Kenichi's birth in my story, Tsunade did not leave Konoha, which in turn caused some things to change in the plot.

Kenichi was born 2 years before the end of the Second Great Shinobi War.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In Konohagakure 4 years after Kenichi was born.

At that moment Tsunade was calmly cooking while watching her son Kenichi playing in the living room.

Originally after losing Dan, Tsunade wanted to leave Konoha, but when her son was born everything she did, it was simply to stop being a Shinobi and become a housewife.

Tsunade was not a fool, and she understood perfectly well that if she had left Konoha with Kenichi, her son would have been persecuted and probably would have been murdered.

She had made a monstrous amount of enemies in the Second Shinobi War, and each of them would love to see her grieve over the death of a son.

Chiyo from Sunagakure would certainly jump for joy at seeing Tsunade suffering, because of the healings she provided in the last war.

The situation was also mutual because Tsunade's hatred for Sunagakure and Kirigakure were extreme, Dan died in a joint attack by Suna and Kiri during the last war and Tsunade would never forget that.

While watching Kenichi calmly playing Tsunade smiled Kenichi was his greatest pride, and also a source of constant concern.

Kenichi was just too talented and curious, he was not like other kids in almost any respect.

If a normal child asked a mother something, such as:

"Because the sky is blue?"

And the mother answered:

"Because God did it that way."

The child would accept, but Kenichi would not, he would continue to pursue the subject until he found an answer that completely satisfied him, and even after he found the answer he would try to find out because that answer was that way.

Kenichi's curiosity and thirst for knowledge were insatiable, which made him smarter than all the other children, and that didn't even come close to describing how much more talented he was than the others.

Kenichi at the age of 3 months was able to stand up, even if for that he had to lean on something.

At 6 months of age, he was running around the house without supporting himself on anything.

At 9 months he spoke the first word.

At 1-year-old Kenichi could already have a conversation with an adult.

At the age of 2, Kenichi had already learned to read and write completely.

With 3 he already mastered subjects that would be difficult even for trained Shinobi.

At the age of 4, his anatomical knowledge of the human body was already at the level of Tsunade itself.

And as if that wasn't enough, Kenichi learned how to unlock his Chackra on his own, and when he did, even Tsunade was scared.

Kenichi had Chackra reserves equivalent to a Kage at 2 years of age, as soon as he unlocked the Chackra.

And they kept increasing, it was insane, but if anyone believes that because of the large amount of Chackra, Kenichi lacked control, that person was deluded.

Tsunade almost had a heart attack when she saw Kenichi walking around the roof of the house while playing, or how he stood on the roof using only one finger to keep his whole body.

The boy was simply a walking box of surprises.

But that still wasn't enough to describe the enormous talent that Kenichi had, the boy didn't even seem to be human.

Kenichi's bodily strength was insane, even though he had never trained a single day in his life, Kenichi possessed the physical capabilities equivalent to that of a Jonin who specialized in Taijutsu.

Tsunade would die before admitting, but even she knew that Kenichi was someone who was born to follow the path of a warrior.

If he spent any time training properly she was sure that he could reach the level of a Rank S ninja in just 3 years.

A Shinobi with the power of a 7-year-old S Rank was simply insane, but Tsunade did not doubt that Kenichi would achieve the feat.

And that worried her, she knew that there were people like Danzo in the village and he would definitely want Kenichi in the Root.

Tsunade would rather die than let Danzo get his hands on his son, and at one of the meetings she was very vocal about how she would tear Danzo's gut out and hang him with him if the old man dreamed of approaching Kenichi.

While looking at Kenichi, Tsunade smiled until she saw Kenichi stop for a moment to look at her and simply pass out.

The moment this happened, Tsunade ran and caught him before he touched the ground and when he put his hand on Kenichi's forehead he discovered that he had a terrible fever.

The moment she saw this Tsunade had cold eyes.

Quickly turning off the fire, she took Kenichi to the hospital in Konoha where a series of tests were done.

Outside Kenichi's room, Tsunade had the test results in hand, thinking about who had access to her home recently.

Kenichi had a simply insane immune system, common illnesses cannot affect him.

And she didn't take him anywhere where he could have caught a serious illness, nor did she take him to meet someone who had one.

This implies that it was not a disease, and if it had not been a disease, it must have been poison.

Someone who had come to your home poisoned Kenichi.

The tests confirmed this, Kenichi was poisoned inside Konoha, while at the Senju complex and according to the tests, it had not been 48 hours since his initial contact with the poison.

While she stayed there, Sarutobi, Jiraya, and Orochimaru arrived at the scene, and the moment they saw Tsunade's cold eyes, they knew that someone would end up dying today.

[Tsunade I came here as soon as I was informed, how is he?] (Hiruzen).

[Alive, contrary to what his friends on the council wanted] (Tsunade) said coldly.

[What do you mean by that?] (Hiruzen).

[Kenichi was poisoned, with a very peculiar and extremely rare poison, which can only be obtained here in Konoha, and is not detectable unless you know what you are looking for] (Tsunade).

[And even if you know what you are looking for if the person dies, the poison disappears in the body, disappearing without a trace] (Tsunade).

[This poison is extracted from the sap of trees that my grandfather created using Senjutsu and has to go through an enormous process of refinement, and even in Konoha only 1 kg of this poison can be produced in a year] (Tsunade).

[Does it look familiar to you Sensei?] (Tsunade)

[The kiss of Death] (Hiruzen).

[Yes, in Kenichi's body, 300 g of this poison was found] (Tsunade).
