Shisui

It took a few days, but the whole Uchiha clan was soon relocated to the edge of the hidden leaf. It was there that the new Uchiha clan was built, and although it was far from the rest of the village, Itachi and I liked the new place.

While the new Uchiha clan resident was being built, we asked Fugaku to teach us a new Jutsu. We learned most of the E rank jutsu, such as The transformation jutsu, Clone Technique, Body Replacement Jutsu, and many more.

We even learned D-rank jutsu, such as the Body Flicker Jutsu, Shadow Shuriken Jutsu, Temporary Paralysis Technique, and many more, and even Genjutsus.

Since we had to wait until the academy was rebuilt, we couldn't join the academy for now. So, we turned to Fugaku to teach us something. So, Fugaku showed us a core technique of the Uchiha clan, and also the highest-grade jutsu he had ever shown us.

It was a C-rank jutsu, known as Fire Style: Fire Ball Jutsu. Fugaku like always showed us the jutsu just once, and we were supposed to learn it ourselves. For others, that was of course nearly impossible, but we did it on our first try, which left Fugaku looking at us for some time with a still look. He of course wouldn't show his shock, but he was truly shocked. 

The Fire Ball Jutsu was simple. The user kneads chakra in their body and turns it into fire, which they then expel from their mouth; the more chakra they use, the more flames that are produced. Sometimes the flames lack a distinct shape, being only a stream, but more often than not they take the form of a giant orb that maintains its shape until hitting a target. Upon impact, the fireball is powerful enough to crater the ground and vaporize the surroundings.

The Great Fireball Technique was created by the Uchiha clan, and over time became one of their signature abilities. The Uchiha used the Great Fireball Technique as a coming-of-age rite, with members not being considered true adults until they learned to perform it.

"Well, since I'm not an adult," I said with a cocky smile, but a glare from Fugakuy made me forget what I was about to say.

"Just because you can do the jutsu doesn't mean you're an adult, more goes into it," Fugaku said, ignoring the fact if I was going to take the coming-of-age rite, I and Itachi would pass. But we were only 5 years old, so that couldn't be allowed. 

"Send chakra into this, I want to see your chakra affinity," Fugaku said calmly, to which we both nodded while taking the paper. This paper was special, as it could be used to tell you your affinity.

By sending chakra into the paper, the reaction of the paper would let you know your affinity. Almost all members of the Uchiha clan had an affinity towards fire, and seeing how smoothly both Itachi and I used the fire Ball jutsu, it was clear we both had an affinity towards fire. Anyways, depending on your affinity, this would be how the paper would react.

Fire: the paper will ignite and turn to ash.

Wind: the paper will split in two.

Lightning: the paper will wrinkle.

Earth: the paper will turn to dirt and crumble away.

Water: the paper will become wet/damp.

Shinobi have an easier time learning to create and control a chakra nature that matches their affinity, although even then it may take several years. Shinobi are not limited to the nature they have an affinity for, and it is common for jōnin to have mastered two natures.

However, even if a shinobi learns other chakra natures, it is extraordinarily difficult and rare to use them at the same degree of efficiency and potency as with their natural affinity. Although it is technically possible to master all five natures, it is very rare because how all individuals are naturally less inclined to certain elements

There are a few people in history who have managed to master all of the 5 nature transformations, off the top of my hand, Hashirama, Tobirama, and the 3rd hokage have mastered all 5 chakra transformations. 

Outside the normal 5 chakra transformations were Yin and Yang. Chakra was made out of two things, physical energy and mental energy. By controlling those two things when molding chakra, you can greatly affect the type of Jutsu you are about to use, it could be a physical type jutsu, an energy type jutsu, or a genjutsu.

Uchihas were born with a high affinity towards Yin, showing off their high talent for genjutsu... but not all Uchihas were the same. 

"Hmm..." Fugaku made a weird nose seeing our affinity. On Itachi paper, one side began burning up, another side grew wet, followed by the last side was cut. This met Itachi was born with 3 affinities, Fire, Water, and Wind.

Meanwhile, Mine was almost the same as Itachi's, but I didn't have wind and instead Lightning. We had the same two affinities, but Itachi had Wind, and I had Lightning.

Fire was strong against Wind but weak against Water. The wind was strong against Lightning, but weak against fire. Water was strong against fire, but weak against Earth. Lightning was strong against Earth but weak against Wind.

We both pretty much canceled each other out, Fugaku was just shocked how we both had 3 affinities, which was extremely rare. It was nearly impossible for anyone to be born with all 5 affinities. For example, look at Naruto, the MC of this world. even he only had 1 Affinity, that being wind.

Having 3 affinities made it easy for us to master all other remaining Nature transformations, we just need some time. This made Fugaku eyes glow slightly, awaiting our future...

Time passed, and although we wanted to master more jutsu, Fugaku rarely taught us anything, forcing us to train on our own. Plus, our mother was a Jonin, we simply had to train with her.

Minato and Kushina also stopped by around this time, when they came to apologize to us, but Mikoto and Fugaku didn't mind it much. I instead used this chance to see if Kushina could teach me sealing ninjutsu, which was also called Fuinjutsu.

Kushina was from a powerful clan which were highly skilled in the sealing arts, sealing arts were powerful, so powerful that they could be used to even defeat those stronger than themselves. This forced many villages to join hands together, defeating the Uzumaki clan overnight before the Hidden Leaf could send help.

Kushina Uzumaki was a powerhouse and had inherited most of her clan jutsu which she shared with Minato, allowing Minato to create the Reaper Death Seal. 

Kushina agreed, and at the same time, Itachi tagged along, not wanting to be left behind by me. Fugaku and Mikoto were not against this, if we could build a bond with Minato and Kushina, it would be for the best.

"... What are you doing," Itachi who was playing with Kunais asked seeing me just standing on a tree branch, looking at my Kunai.

"I'm trying to see if I could use the flying Thunder god, but it looks like just seeing it used once isn't enough," I said lightly. Hearing this, Itachi jumped over to the tree branch and looked at the seal that I was trying to place on the Kunai.

The flying thunder god was a space-time ninjutsu created by the second hokage, Tobirama. It allows the user to place a seal on one or more things, which they can teleport to instantly at any time. These seals couldn't be removed, even if the user dies, they would remain.

By entering a dimensional void, users can instantly teleport to the seal location whenever they please, regardless of distance, or different dimension. Anything that the user is holding, contacting, or that is linked with their chakra will teleport with them, but this requires additional chakra to do; particularly large objects can require so much chakra as to place a limit on how far away the user can teleport.

Minato was given the title, The Yellow Flash thanks to this Jutsu. This was an S-rank ninjutsu, which made Minato a monster that all enemies ran away from on sight. Minato went up against armies all on his own thanks to this Jutsu and slaughtered hundreds. 

"You're trying to learn an S-rank ninjutsu without the sharingan?" Itachi asked, although we could learn most things by seeing it being used carefully, it looked as if our limits were C-rank jutsu.

"It's worth a try," I said with a pout. It's with a sharingan that allows us of the Uchiha clan to be able to copy all Jutsu without problems, so long as we meet the requirement. The Flying Thunder God uses up a lot of chakras, making only those few prodigies like Minato capable of using the jutsu... of course, both Itachi and I should be able to use the jutsu.

Itachi was still too young and was building his chakra up, meanwhile, I had pretty much an infinite amount of chakra thanks to just how small the amount of chakra I used. Itachi had more chakra than me, and his chakra was more powerful and denser than mine.

This wasn't the Itachi from the anime who was weak. In the anime, Itachi had low chakra thanks to his Illness. Itachi true power had never been shown in the anime, even when Itachi was brought back to life, he was brought back weaker than when he was alive and weakened. Itachi Prime was a mystery, but there is one thing for sure. He was the strongest person in Part One of Naruto.

"Well, let's start," Itachi said calmly, to which I nodded while jumping down, and looking towards the targets which were placed onto the tree in front of us. We were still not skilled enough to have Kunais hit each other, to redirect them to hit targets in our blindspots. 

"Ready?" I asked while holding 4 kunai in each hand. Itachi closed his eyes for a moment before nodding. Seeing that, I waved my hands, and all of the kunai were sent flying, hitting strings which caused many things to start moving.

Wood blocks came falling from the side, swinging left and right. The targets began moving as well, making it super hard for Itachi to hit them. That wasn't all as a huge log came flying towards Itachi, forcing Itachi to quickly move while throwing the kunai that he had pulled out.

I watched all of this happen, Itachi didn't miss the bullseye once, as his Kunai hit without problems. All before Itachi even landed on the ground. 

"That's a 6 out of 10," I said with a smile, making Itachi frown not knowing where he went wrong. I simply pointed towards one of the bullseyes, showing how the kunai didn't hit the center of the bullseye, but was slightly to the side.

"Plus, your landing wasn't perfect. You also used up more time than needed, therefore, a 6 out of 10." I said with a smile, to which Itachi sighed softly. He looked at that bullseye in annoyance, not at anyone but himself. 

Itachi was obsessed with perfect things. When he cooked, the food had to be perfect or else he would throw it away, when he trained, he trained for perfection, and the list went on. When he throws the kunai, he wants it to hit the bullseye, the very center of the target, not within the bullseye and slightly to the side.

"I think that was alright." Both Itachi and I eyes widened while we both looked towards the side. Itachi looked towards me, wanting to see if I knew, but seeing as I was caught off guard as well shocked him. No one could so easily be able to near me without knowing it.

"Shisui," I said with narrowed eyes, How couldn't I know Shisui? I got this guy's image information from Fugaku's office. At the age of 5 years old, he became Genin, at the age of 6 years old, he didn't simply awaken the sharingan but pushed it beyond the sharingan after his best friend died. This made Shisui the fastest person to awaken the Mangekyō Sharingan, but he was hiding this fact... oh, I also knew him from the anime.

He was currently 7 years old, 2 years older than us. But already, it could be said Shisui was Jonin level.

"You know me," Shisui asked with a smile, surprised we knew him. I nodded lightly, while Itachi looked at me since he didn't know.

"Your papers were on Dad's table," I said making Itachi look at me blankly as this was something I would be in big trouble for once Fugaku found out.

"Oh, you are?" Shisui asked in interest, not knowing who we were.

"I'm Gojo Uchiha," I said with a smile, to which Shisui had a question pop up in his head as my first name seemed more suited towards a last name. but he ignored it.

"I'm Itachi Uchiha," Itachi said to which Shisui nodded lightly.

"I'm Shisui Uchiha, I was just passing by... it's rare to find someone of my age with such skills. Self Taught?" Shisui asked to which we nodded, while looking at Shisui who pulled out one kunai, and with a skillful movement of his hand, that one Kunaii turned into 4 kunai.

He threw it, and unlike when Itachi threw his Kunai, Shisui's Kunai left his hands at almost the same time, yet they flew off, hitting the targets placed around on the tree, all hitting the center hitting the center. 

"It's..." Shisui wanted to speak, but seeing us just wave our hands, having one kunai turn into 4, his eye twitched slightly. It wasn't anything impressive, it was more like a magic trick than anything else. What we cared most about was how he skillfully threw the 4 kunai... we of course got it down on our first try.

'I guess this is why they are self-taught.' Shisui thought, who would like having everything they teach be learned almost instantly?
