40 - Otsutsuki Clan (5)
Karou calmed down, took a deep breath and went on with the party.
- Sorry for what happened, the party will continue!
Karou went to talk to other minor patriarchs, to bond and sell his bread. He always maintained a smile and a servant air. Sometimes he activated his Sharingan to analyze people, but he found nothing much. He then went to speak to the last patriarch.
- Respected Patriarch Johan. - Karou greeted.
Patriarch Johan was the youngest of the patriarchs. He had another unusual feature, his hair was blond, a very rare feature in this region. Usually people in the Crimson Kingdom had brown hair. Karou's completely black hair was also rare.
- Hello, first isn't it? - Patriarch Johan had a little indifference in his tone of voice, he did not pay much attention to Karou and seemed bored.
Johan was very proud, he was the youngest and most promising patriarch among the five, his arrogance was high. He only attended the party because of the other patriarchs. For him Karou was just an idiot.
Karou realized the indifference, he decided not to get too involved with Johan he already had too many problems. Karou looked at the system, Johan also had nothing special about the system.
Karou even activated his Sharingan quickly to be sure, Karou took a step back after doing so.
"Same amount of Chakra" Johan had a similar amount of Chakra to that of Karou, that alone was an alert.
- Well Patriarch Johan, I hope you continue to enjoy the party.
- Yes Yes. - He said carefree.
Karou sat down again, his grandfather assumed the role of host while Karou spoke to Lin.
- Tell me, did anything significant happen? - Asked Karou, he wanted to know if there were problems or attacks.
- No attack, I found some spies, but they were no threat. The soldier who attacked earlier is receiving hundreds of proposals from other clans, some offered very high positions, but he denied them all. It seems that men understand that following him is much better.
- I see, keep up the good work. Say that the show can start.
- Okay, I'll let James know.
Karou sat on his chair and smiled. Sunflower had already left a mark on the patriarchs, Mother of Pearl gifts from Karou also helped to establish bonds. Karou would now demonstrate some of his strength, disguised by a show.
- To all guests. Pay attention to the center of the hall, we will have a small show for entertainment.
The most skilled of each Chakra element gathered in the middle of the room. They were facing each other. The fire element ninja quickly made his hand seals and produced five balls of fire.
All the guests were paying close attention, Karou was now demonstrating another way of using jutsus, for simple fun.
The balls floated, the ninja then started to juggle the fireballs. That in itself was surprising in the eyes of the guests. The fire ninja joined the balls into a larger ball. He then hurled them at the water mage.
The guests' hearts accelerated, before reaching him a layer of water appeared to protect him and a large layer of steam covered the area making it impossible for everyone to see. They were ecstatic wanting to know what happened to the water ninja.
Soon the smoke cleared, everyone saw a statue, it was a statue of a giant snake with a terrifying face, there was only one person in front of the stone statue. It was the last ninja, this ninja was acting. He held only a small knife and looked injured and scared.
The snake would devour him, but the man would not give up, he got up, took his knife and ran. As if he had drawn a huge sword, he cut through the void and fell to the ground. The snake appeared to be intact and he looked injured.
Everyone in the hall was confused by that, they never saw anything like it and didn't know how to react. Suddenly the man on the floor stood up and with an effort threw his fist up like a winner. The snake began to cut itself and turn into small pieces, the man defeated the beast.
The other ninjas appeared beside the man and began to bow to the guests, the guests did not know what it was and did not know how to react, they liked it very much and felt strong emotion. Soon Karou started clapping, following him the other members of the clans copied. The guests followed soon after, also clapping their hands.
Karou thought it was pretty silly, but in this wild world entertainment was rare. People liked to watch fights for fun. There were no magic shows or even plays. Even the kings of the high wind empire had never seen that.
The party was ending and Karou went to say goodbye to the guests.
- Oh. Kage, I loved that show at the end, what's the name of that? - Asked Klaus, Klaus was the patriarch that Karou was most familiar with.
- That is called a piece, it is one of the 6 arts in the world today.
- 6 arts? Invite me the other day, I would like to hear more about it. - Said Klaus smiling and leaving happily.
Other patriarchs also said goodbye, Johan just left without speaking. Rat also waved goodbye, but he seemed to have a bit of remorse. After everyone has left Karou can breathe easy.
He had already done everything he needed socially. Now that he has presented himself, he just needs to continue strengthening. The next step was the Battle of the Clans and perhaps in the future even the Battle of Kings. Karou decided that at this time he would train himself and his soldiers to be able to have a good result. Karou also needed to investigate the system's former users and the tailed beasts lost across the continent.
To travel across the continent Karou needed to have a minimum level of strength, Karou got up and went to the training room. Following him were his four most trusted companions. Falcon, Katherine, Lin and James. Karou was taking the first steps towards the future.
- I will follow my ninja way! - Karou was very happy with his second chance and would live to the fullest.
