underground of uzushiogakure office.

the nidaime looked toward all the ninja in front of him and with a stern face he told them the reason why they were summoned.

"a few days ago the shodaime was visited by the shinigami and 'they' brought us bad news, 'they' said that the time for the seed of destruction to bloom will come, and thus the time for our village to fulfill the contract has come.

all chunin along with the S-rank class ninja will stay in the village to protect it, while all the jounin along with some anbu will search for the source of the destruction and try to delay it as much as possible, set out"

all the ninja the disappeared from the underground facility, while going away tenma tried to remember their clan contract.

#flashback#

two years when tenma just become a chunin, he was summoned by the shodaime along with all the other chunin, after arriving to the place where they were summoned. they saw that the he was holding a giant scroll.

"congratulation all of you guys have become a chunin"

""""THANK YOU FOR YOUR PRAISE, UZUSHIOKAGE SAMA """"

"in our village in order to become a true chunin, one must have to go through the shinigami contract, a contract with shinigami in order for use to use their power without paying with our life, before we start I shall tell you the content of the contract"

hearing the contract many become confused because they don't know that such a thing existed, but when they heard the effect of the contract they were consumed with disbelieve, but they become even more shocked when the shodaime tried to tell them the content of the contract.

from behind the shodaime a shinigami appeared silently before entering the shodaime body and possessing it, seeing this all the chunin was shocked and some even tried to help the shodaime when suddenly the possessed shodaime started to talk.

[shinigami contract.

descendant of uzumaki that have sufficient power upon signing this contract will not have their soul extracted after employing shinigami, in return the descendant of uzumaki must search for all the seed of destruction and prevent it from coming true]

after saying that the shinigami left the shodaime body and disappeared, and then all the chunin start to sign the shinigami contract.

#flashback end#

around two month after the start of the mission, a news that the konoha was attacked by kyubi, but thank to the fourth hokage minato, the third hokage sarutobi, the three sannin, and other ninja they safely sealed the kyubi inside minato childs.

and because of the mission uzushiogakure only able to send some genin to help with konoha reconstruction.

**********************************************************************************************************

the search for the seed of destruction went on for six years, and in these six years the uzushiogakure ninja found two seed of destruction or what most known as the god tree, countless ninja died because the god tree was protected by some strong beast or was located in other village.

in these six years tenma also found one god tree and just like the other god tree, the one he found was still a sapling and was hard to differentiate from other common sapling.

but thank to his incredible sense that he gained from training his senjutsu chakra, he found the third god tree, when he first found it he didn't quickly destroy it but decided to observe, and to his suprise he found out the reason why the shinigami called the god tree as the seed of destruction, because the god tree sucked every nature energy around it, but at the same time it let out some vitality that make everything in it surrounding seem full of life while underground the god tree slowly killing everything for it nutrient.

after he was done sensing the god tree he killed the god tree by sealing it and thus prevent it from absorbing the surrounding nature energy.

after killing the third god tree the nidaime decided to temporarily stop the mission and have all the ninja go back to the village.

after coming back from his mission he heard that his cousins six birthday was coming up, and because of his mission he still don't have the chance to see his cousins much lest coming to their birthday, the only thing he know was that minato have more than one child.

thus he decided to go back to konoha along with his parent and spent sometime with his cousins.
