Meeting

He looked cool in his dress. He looked like a celebrity.

"I didn't know you could look so cool. I mean, with the new dress and hairstyle, you could be a celebrity rather than a ninja. " Rukh compliments him.

"I always looked cool." He was walking towards the edge of the black mountain while talking to Rukh.

"Yeah, whatever you say! " Rukh

"You know, when I was a baby, I asked my mother about my father."

"She didn't tell me much about him, just his name, Itachi, and how much I resembled him and he being a great shinobi."

"Wait, isn't that your name?" Rukh

"So, that day, I told my mother I was going to change my name to Itachi. That was a cool name."

"I chose that name in order to be like him, to bear a resemblance to him."

"However, I've realized something important: I'm not Itachi."

"So, tell me, who are you?"

"My name is RYU, which means "dragon." That was my previous name before I changed it."

"I will be a dragon who will rule the world sooner or later."

"So, what would you like me to call you?" Rukh

"I will take a different path than Itachi; it will not be the path Itachi takes; it will be the path "Ryu" takes, which means I will pursue." Ryu

"I see" Rukh

"So, Ryu what are you planning to do in the coming future." Rukh was curious.

"I am some things in mind, but before that we must leave for the land of waves." Ryu talked to Rukh while staring at the rising sun.

Rukh was sitting on Ryu's shoulder, both were staring at the rising sun.

"This is a new beginning," Rukh said, his smiled.

"It certainly is." Ryu smiled as he looked up at the rising sun.

"When are we leaving?" Rukh turned to face Ryu.

"Let us now depart. Kinshiki must have left by now, I believe." Ryu

As Rukh turned into a giant eagle, Ryu climbed up on his back.

Rukh activated God-speed and went towards the village at full speed.

Ryu had not fully recovered; he had remained silent the entire time.

They arrived in the Land of Waves after a day of travel.

Ryu began sensing natural energy to see if Kinshiki was still present. He discovered no trace of him. As a result, he finally decided it was safe.

When he arrived in the village, he saw that the houses had been destroyed. That was not the result of their battle. He could tell by looking around that another battle had taken place here, but against whom?

'I'll go gather some information.' He thought to himself.

As he walked around the city, he noticed that it had a remorseful vibe to it.

The lord of the land of the waves only provided the bare necessities for the city. As a result of the battle, the villagers in this area were starving. They were not killed by Kinshiki.

He probably wanted to heal himself first.

He was walking around the city when he noticed some people outside the village discussing the incident as any normal villager would do over months.

He went there to join the conversation and overheard them conversing. and inquired of them

"What exactly happened here? Could you please provide me with more information?" Ryu

When the group heard the voice, they turned to see a handsome, tall, black-haired male standing there wearing a white vest and a black long coat.

"Don't stare at me like that, I will give you money for the information." Ryu

They were excited to hear about money and suddenly started speaking.

They informed him of his conflict with Kinshiki. Kinshiki became enraged after teleporting. He needed to recover because he had been severely injured. As a result, he went to a nearby first aid room and began to recover.

The people had already informed the mist village about the battle, as well as their appearances and movements, as well as any other information they had.

Kinshii had already recovered by half in a single day. Such severe injuries were no longer that severe.

Kinshiki, they said, planned to kill the people of the village after a day. He had a ferocious bloodlust that caused people to choke.

Kinshiki gathered around 100 people in one location and began killing them. He killed 14 people in total, and as he was about to kill the 15th, a flash of lightning appeared and stopped Kinhiki's attack.

That man then fought Kinshiki, and after a while, both of them retreated. They described how that man lacked an arm and hid one of his eyes with his hair.

That man inquired about what had occurred here, and they informed him of my battle with Kinshiki.

That man just said "I see" and left the village after a day.

Ryu handed them money and exited the building.

"So, he showed up, huh?" Ryu murmured, but Rukh could hear him.

"Did you know you pushed such a strong person away?" Rukh was perplexed.

"It was UCHIHA SASUKE, my uncle." Ryu.

"Well, Kinshi was hurt, so he could beat him." Rukh

"Even if he had been at his peak, Sasuke would have won in the end. He is that powerful." Ryu

Rukh's beak just popped open.

Ryu smiled at Rukh's expression and reached his house.

"Why are you here?" Rukh

"There is something here that I will be taking back." Ryu

"Huh?" Rukh

Ryu walked over to the undeground room's door and kicked it open.

He made his way towards the legendary weapons.

"What exactly are these weapons? At first, I thought it was just a normal weapon, but the fact that you're after them proves it's not." Rukh had seen these weapons before but had never given them much thought.

They are the legendary class weapons Totsuka Sword and Yata Mirror." Ryu

"Legendary." The words were murmured by Rukh.

Ryu walked towards the weapons and grabbed the weapons. As soon as he grabbed the weapons, he felt a different chakra reaching his consciousness trying to communicate with him.

Rukh thought and was ready to fly towards Ryu.

"No! Don't!" Ryu

Rukh stopped his movement.

Ryu found himself in his spiritual realm. In the spiritual realm, he noticed a figure approaching.

"I'm looking at you for the first time." The figure spoke and the face became clearer and clearer.

Finally, his face cleared, allowing Ryu to see his full face. He was taken aback, but hid his shock and asked, "Who are you?" despite the fact that he was aware of the man's identity.

"How rude of me not to introduce myself. UCHIHA ITACHI is my name." Itachi spoke up, smiling as he stood in front of Ryu.

Uchiha Itachi was standing in front of him. He sealed a portion of his chakra in the Tatsuka sword. Itachi entered his spiritual space as soon as he picked up the sword.

( A/N: I decided to have his name be Ryu, don't mind me I liked the name.)
