I Come From the Water(NK, Ryusei)

Yazu had finished his assimilation, and he was on a high.  He now had 4 hearts with which to defend himself and had a massive variety of Ninjutsu that he could learn before him. Earth at the core, water, fire and finally lightning.  The Combination of water and lightning may come and serve him well.  Yazu would stand while the threads ceased their frantic movement drawing back within him and latching his flesh back together.  He had given no thoughts as to how this might appear to the Shinkou before him, but Kozata did not find it too odd, so perhaps Ryusei would not be too concerned as well.  Yazu now stood before Ryusei breathing heavily with a large grin spread across his face.
 
The boy had already begun a long line of questioning.  Yazu would hold his hand up, "One question at a time, all will be explained."  He would state to the Shinkou.   "It is a very unique forbidden hiden technique, developed long ago by what I imagine was a craven mad man with some lust for power.  It is known as Earth Grudge Fear, I have had the technique for as long as I can remember.  I believe it was given to me by the village elders though I do not know for certain.  However, with this ability I am quite unique.  Where most of mankind cannot attain control of more than 3 elements, I currently have access to four.  It is due to my unique biological makeup which affords me access to multiple hearts.  The more hearts I have the more elements I can have control of. I am certain there are people who are not particularly fond of it, especially those who have come to give me donations, but I have tried my hardest to control my impulses and not claim them from allies.  Of course accidents do happen.  Thanks to the help of my friend, Kozata, I now have access to lightning ninjutsu.  As for the masks, that will remain a secret for another day."  Yazu would answer each question as it came to him, though he would not discuss much as it related to the masks, those were a very secret aspect to his jutsu one that he chose to withhold. 
 
Ryusei would then ask him how he knew of the Shinkou abilities, "It wouldn't be hard to figure out watching you talk to yourself," Yazu thought to himself, though he wouldn't say it out loud.  "Ther happens to be another of your clan within the village, one that I know well.  Well enough to call a friend.  I had met one other in the arena, during the blood games, though we had never spoken.  Kozata may be able to help you understand your abilities better than I.  However given my exposure I think I have a firm grasp on its generalities."  Yazu said, considering himself an authority, though his hypothesis of the Shinkou gaining power through mental instability was somewhat off base.
 
 
"The man who peeked through here and disappeared was Kozata Shinkou another with your heritage, though I wouldn't think him to be the tutoring sort, of course he is always full of surprises.  I may be able to introduce the two of you.  For now continue unlocking your clan heritage, delve as deeply as you want, I simply wish to investigate and view what it is that you do.  I will be of no harm, I simply wish to research."  Yazu would respond taking a seat with his legs folding still twiddling his eye about in an attempt to learn the eye mind reading.  He knew that he had much more important techs to learn but for his personal growth and an attempt to understand the Shinkou better he felt that learning this technique would be paramount.  Of course knowing the ability would not actually bring any benefit to him beyond that.
 
"Crux?"  would he be naming the apparition now, well an interesting name for a mental aberration Yazu thought to himself.

To listen to Yazu talk was kinda interesting to be honest. Kozata… from what he said earlier about Kozata understanding the abilities Ryusei might have, he was probably a Shinkou as well, hopefully a knowledgable one at that. Yazu’s later words confirmed it.

“I have no clue about my heritage to be honest, mostly because of my background. If there are generalities you could share, besides the ones already mentioned that would be great. And to be honest I don’t mind you investigating since you are already kinda helping me already.

As he stared at Yazu, possibly though unlikely making him uncomfortable, his vision began to change. At the same time, it felt as if his body could fight longer, like his body had more… stamina. “Hey, I can see different chakra colours now. Yazu… I see… is the one element you are missing wind? I see a red, a brown, a blue, and a lightning element in you, the lightning one still kinda growing to catch up.”

The Yuumei, Crux, responded without being spoken too, which was totally fine. “Well, looks like we are finally getting on the right path now. I guess we can figure things out from here. I might take a nap so to speak.”

At this point in the conversation Yazu had deducted that most of what Ryusei needed to unlock was mental and he had no way of helping.  Even with a way to see in it would be basically pointless to help, and Yazu figured one day he would find out more without trying to understand secrets about a clan that Ryusei knew nothing about.  He was resigned to solitary study on a more practical and useful medical ninjutsu, one that he knew for a fact would come in handy.  Yazu sat in the sand a few meters in front of Ryusei looking up at him with his legs crossed.  A different scroll unrolled before him, with the old one next to him.  His hand coursed the pages reading while watching Ryusei, taking in information at an exceedingly high rate.  As a sociopath compartmentalization was simple and required no real struggle.
 
He would draw upon his own chakra feeling it flow down to his hands, and enhancing the hands with very potent medical chakra, capable of stopping bleeding and suturing wounds.  Yazu would become quite excited by how quickly he had mastered the basic usage of the jutsu.  Of course he had to test it on a live subject before he could truly say that it was finished and ready to move forward.
 
In response to Ryusei asking him for any information about his clan's ability one more thing came to mind.  Of course how could he forget, the eyes.  Yazu had been filled in on the strange eyes that the shinkou possess.  Yazu was only slightly jealous about them, everyone had powerful eyes except for himself. 
 
"Yes, besides the previous general information, there was the doujutsu.  I am not entirely sure how it works, but I know that you can see elemental natures...."  Yazu would say, and it was at that time Ryusei would start talking about Yazu's elemental chakra's.  Yes, Yazu had stolen nearly all of them, and he had reached a level of near peak power, and felt invincible on a nearly god-like scale. However, Yazu had to consciously keep his hubris at bay for fear of becoming over confident and losing his edge. 
 
"The lightning is nearly completely assimilated into my system.  It takes very little time to accomplish.  The moment the mask forms I have complete control.  The only weakness being, I don't know any Raiton jutsu.  So I cannot provide any proof." Yazu would iterate as he stood and brushed the sand off of his pants.  Yazu had become somewaht bored of this whole thing and at this point he had no fear of Ryusei.  He would not at this point recognize the lad as anything more than a mutual ally, and a holder of knowledge that he may wish to glean. 
 
Yazu would hold his hand forward, stacking both scrolls under his other arm.  "Well, Ryusei Shinkou. It certainly was a pleasure meeting you, I do hope to see you again in the future.  The same goes for you Crux.  If the two of you ever indeed wish to meet again, I will be around.  I have nothing but time."  Yazu would say waiting for Ryusei to accept his handshake.

Yup, time to pack things up now.

“Thanks for the help!” Ryusei replied with a grin. Then it was away to that eternal slumber in ones dwelling named sleep.

Yazu would watch as the boy walked away, if that was indeed what the boy did.  The greatest conclusion Yazu could draw was that the boy seemed to fall asleep in front of him though that would be absurd.  Nonetheless Yazu would be left watching his hand as Ryusei denied him the formality of a handshake which Yazu deemed as quite rude.  He would be left staring down at his hand and back to his studies.  Yazu wandered back to where he previosly laid and continued contemlating the jutsu he had been working on.  He would worry about the mind eye later instead wishing to focus on the Mystical Palms technique.  It worked similarly as with a medical ninjustu though it didnt require the unique handsigns, just a high level of chakra control and mastery.


Yazu would walk back to the sand he ;aid in before and look out on the ocean, noticing the tide would be coming in shortly.  He flopped back in the sand placing his hands behind his head and closing his eyes drifting off into a state of dreamlike mentality, thinking about the possibilities before him, he had acquired his fourth heart and had made substantial bounds and leaps as far as discovering the secrets to medical jutsu.  It would not be long before he would destroy the learning curve that he currently fought having much capability and a great deal to learn.  He had fought his limitations like the tide fights the shore and continues fighting even now.  Though with more dedicated focus he would break through and separate himself from the other sheep within the village.  He was a lion and was living among the sheep, and the only thing that kept his teeth from baring was the considerable chain around his neck.  Though he found great strength in that chain for the holder of the chain was one of the most well respected and powerful ninja in the entire world.  He awaited the day that the Mizukage allowed him to realease the chain and sink his teeth into the flesh of Kiri's enemies.
