Kumo Document Theft

The night was young yet the activity around the village was small. There weren't many citizens out, mainly shinobi strolling, on patrol or training. Hato was on of the shinobi that was on a stroll. Hato had been training that after noon and she was exhausted from the high kicks and chakra control training. 

The young woman finds a bench while on her stroll and sits, adjusting to make the wooden bench comfortable. She looked up at the dark sky. Only the brightest stars glowed in the night as the light pollution in the village was too much. Kumo, the village that out shines the stars. 

Suddenly, an annoying alarm sounded through out the village. All the houses turned on their lights in a hurry to see what is distressing enough to wake them from their hard earned slumber. Everyone would soon realize that it was the intruder alert. All the shinobi that were training, strolling or on patrol got to work finding the danger. 

Hato started darting around the village looking for the intruders. She bolted along side some anxious shinobi before they took a different turn. Her chakra sensory wasn't picking up anything big, just a bunch of searching shinobi. There was no use using her chakra sensory ability unless she was able to memorize them. Hato jumped up on a building that was perked on a small cliff, scanning along the vast area of the village. Nothing. She started to head for the gates, like most seemed to be doing. 

Upon arrival, Hato found a group of familiar looking genin. They all seemed to asking what was going on. No one knew. Even heard the voice of Jiro asking the same questions. Yet she couldn't see him. Thankfully, a helpful informant in a chunin flak arrived at the group to debrief.  “One of our jounin said there was a raid on the kage’s office. They don’t know what documents were stolen yet," A sudden gasp was heard through the crowd. Hato wondered if it was releated to Kenshin and the missing ninjas. He continued,  "but they think the ninja that just left toward the mountain had something to do with it. The guard said he felt Aoi was acting odd when they spoke. Everyone here is going to look in the village, except Jiro you have a mission.” Hato would notice the chunin get picked out. Once the crowd began to clear, Hato was able to finally see the face/mask of the chunin. She watched Jiro get handed a scroll before she would start to head back to her apartment. 

On her way, Hato was stopped from behind by the same man that had spoken to Jiro. "Hato, Right?" She turns to face him, "yes?" He approaches her and asks, "You're a medical ninja, right? With sensory abilities?" "That is correct, sir." "Good. I want you to join Jiro and Kiseragi. Track down and find those thieves." Hato looking pleasantly surprised, "right away." She wasn't expecting this much fun that night. 

Hato body flickered over to the gates where she was told to meet Jiro and Kiseragi. She approached them formally and introduces herself, mainly directing it to the jonin as he hadn't met her, "Hello, my name is Hato Sano." She would then explain, "I'm the group's medic and sensory ninja." It was a hurried introduction, but one that she needed to make.

The night had begun to rise in the old lands of Kumogakure, the mountains had a marvelous view of the moon and its stars as they slowly began to fill the sky with their light. On a peak closest to the village sat the jounin, rather Storm operative of the lightning village staring off into the distance. His eyes had their normal amber hues as he pondered on the current course of his life after his meeting with Max and wondered what would come after. That being said he moved his left hand to pet the fur of one of the wolves that had been absentmindedly laying beside him, staring into the distance of the village with its street lights slowly filling the area. Feeling a little bit lethargic of sitting around the mountains, he decided to head into the village for something to eat. Tonight he had forgone his usual shinobi attire and instead wore a dark grey kimono with a black jacket over his shoulders. On his right side sat his blade, Belial and to his left a ninja pouch with a few kunai and shuriken.

As he slowly made his way into the village, near the stalls and food areas, a few ninja came to approach him which caused him to stop in his tracks," Kiseragi? Sir we've been requested and tasked to have you take on the role of an emergency mission. A group of ninja have broken into the Raikage's building and stole a unknown amount of documents on our ninja. We need you and two others who have been told of this to track them down, get the documents and if unavoidable kill the shinobi responsible. You are to meet the others at the gate sir," of course Kiseragi sighed for a moment before turning in the direction of the gates and within a streak of lightning he was off toward the gates. Since he was the first there he would wait against the gates, tapping an idle finger against the hilt until he had heard Jiro's voice first. With a small smile he would give a two finger salute to the male before speaking," We're waiting on one more, when they get here we will quickly jump into action."

After a moment or two he would see the female show up and introduce herself to which he would blink a few moments," Kiseragi, i'm going to be the team leader for this mission. Let's be to the point here. I'm sure the two of you know the situation of this mission and thus we are going to get straight to it. The group in question is heading toward the mountains where there is approximately two exits out of them and out of the village. We will be intersecting them in the cross where they meet. Time is of the essence so let's get moving," and as if on cue he would bring two fingers to his lips and whistle. The whistle itself wouldn't be anything fancy, but after five seconds a shrill howl would fill the air. After that the Jounin took off in the direction of the mountains," Try to keep up and don't get lost behind. Hato be on the look out for anything out of place and Jiro prepare to give support should we run into any stragglers," with his head facing forward his eyes would slowly begin to swirl into their three tomoe state as he began to focus on the task at hand.

“Weird that they sent more sensor types.” Jiro would say with a bit of a smirk happy to see his friend. There were two users of the sharingan already in the group and Jiro’s was enhanced to the point that their own kage feared the shapes of his eyes. Though his looked different from the ones Maku and Youka possessed, Jiro assumed that each individual had a unique design to their eyes. “Hello, Hato. Good to have you along.”


Much had changed since the two had seen eachother last, Jiro’s once weak presence had faded and now his chakra could be felt much further away. Still the girl’s chakra was strong as ever, she was a welcome addition to any team. Jiro was hoping she would take the time to comment on his sudden improvement, but he wasn’t going to openly ask for her approval.


With the quick greeting Kiseragi would waste no time in getting them moving. His wolves as Jiro had assumed where somewhere close ready to track their targets. Without a sample of one of the ninja’s gear, Jiro had to wonder how the wolves knew what they were hunting. Perhaps Kiseragi was the jounin who came across the kage’s office and learned of the missing documents.


The jounin said Hato should be on the lookout for stragglers while, Jiro would be around for support. A good choice the chuunin’s style had limited abilities when it came to battle, distraction was more his style. We could use my dimension to travel faster, but we can’t until we know where they are headed. Kiseragi knows about it, he will let me know when it is time to use it. When their leaders eyes took up the three tomoe state, so did Jiro’s there would be three sensors on this mission this was a squad made to pursue. A ninja who could track via wolves, a medical sensor, and a person who could determine your position in the world after memorizing your chakra.


The last one was incredibly scary, what if someone with similar abilities emerged. Could they show up wherever he sleep. Jiro had an idea to hide his own chakra signature, well scramble. He could change how his own chakra felt by having it change by the second. That was the plan anyhow, he would have to test it later. In addition it would have to hide how his chakra looks in the case of doujutsu. Finding the material would be tough, because no known items could do anything of the sort. But his eyes would aid him in finding the things needed to build his cloak.


Jiro would run his full speed as they pushed ahead, staying to the back of the group he would keep his head up and look around. The two wolves he could see moving toward the mountain. They probably had already picked up the scent. The direction indicated that the group wasn’t going directly to Suna or the compound in the mountain. Jiro wanted to mention this fact, but with Sano there it was difficult. That place is probably a secret if few know about it and the location didn’t even come with directions. Well it did come with directions, just not good ones. West side of the mountain isn’t very specific. Luckily, Jiro would never have to find the entrance again he could just arrive when summoned. His cool new eye had come with an awesome perk, the ability to phase, teleport, track, and he got a place to live that he could manipulate with thoughts.


On the mountain the jounin leading his squad would hear the howling of wolves after a loud whistling. “Shit, Kiseragi!” He would mouth to himself as he stopped and looked around. They are tracking us. Aoi had just read in his files that the jounin uses wolves and that he lived somewhere around the mountain. Should have read the files and stolen them later, would have given me an idea who they would send. “We have to move faster they sent someone for us.” The faces of his team filled with panic, they believed in their teacher and his plans were falling apart.


“If we get caught let me fight you guys just say you were told you were going on a mission.” Aoi hoped the genin could sell it, otherwise when he killed one of them and leveraged the other two it wouldn’t be very effective. Then again his hope was that the people coming wouldn’t catch up at all and they would make it to the other missing ninja in time. With a large group maybe their pursuers would give up. That was the best the jounin and his envoy could hope for, but Aoi was doubtful that they would make it. Maybe if they catch up I should surrender, I’d do a life sentence for sure. What if I burn all of the evidence before they find me? Nah, they would still find out I had been given no mission then left. Then again I am still in the lighting country, I can try to persuade them the guard at the gate is a liar and had the documents all along.


In his panic Aoi’s mind raced with ideas most of which didn’t make sense. His brain’s function of self preservation had kicked into overdrive with schemes. Some of which ended horribly with him dead or imprisoned indefinitely. That was the last thing he wanted however to be stuck in a cell for the rest of his days. He preferred execution or death, either of the two sounded better than life in prison.

Jiro and the stranger, Kiseragi, were both at gate as soon as Hato arrived. She preformed her introduction and Kiseragi introduced himself. From there, the jonin would start taking the lead of the group. "I'm sure the two of you know the situation of this mission," Hato knew vaguely about the mission, just that someone stole some important documents. "...And thus we are going to get straight to it. The group in question is heading toward the mountains where there is approximately two exits out of them and out of the village. We will be intersecting them in the cross where they meet." With that, they headed out for the other exit so they could intersect the group in question. Kiseragi was the fastest of the group, Hato was able to keep up from behind. She was instructed by the jonin to look for anything out of place and to help out him if they ran into any stragglers. Hato nodded, confirming she heard the order. 

After receiving the order, Hato activated Mind's Eye of Kaguya. The advanced chakra sensory skill was able to detect the missing ninjas, confirming what the wolves were howling about. They weren't far from them and she predicted that they would make an appearance soon. 

Hato also detected Jiro's chakra level and noticed it had improved greatly. In fact, it was greater than Kisegi's and Hato's. She was very impressed, like a scientist would with their project. She wondered how the development of the sharigan was coming around. She hadn't seen Jiro in awhile, so she didn't know his capabilities quite yet. Maybe another training session would help with that question. 

"There are four of them. 3 of them have pathetic chakra levels but the 4th might hold some problems. Jiro and I can take on the three, if you'd like?" Hato asked Kiseragi. Hato didn't doubt that she and Jiro could take out some D rank missing ninja, no problem. However, she wasn't sure if what they lacked in chakra, they could make up in physical strength. 

Suddenly, she remembered that Jiro was able to make portals last time they met. "Can't you create portals? I can give you direction if you can make the portal." If Jiro answered yes, Hato would start listing off the direction they were in, how far and how high. Hopefully with the coordinated directions, they can quickly arrive at the thieves within movements.

There was something to be said about the animals that had thrived within the lands of Kumogakure. None of them however compared to the wolves of the mountains, in Kiseragi's personal opinion. The wolves could track and hunt like nothing he had personally seen before and when it came down to a battle they filed in with tooth and claw ready. In this particular instance they needed no incentive nor a piece of cloth or smell to track what they needed at this moment. The mountains were their home and for these intruders to come in and defile it was more than what they needed to act. As the three wolves that Kiseragi had summoned to his aide ran through the streets, they howled into the mountains and the mountains howled back. Soon packs of wolves were on the move within the mountains themselves, mere moments before the trio had arrived. What was going on now was a hunt, and while the ninja thought they were going to get away they would soon find out that all crime had paid in the end.

Meanwhile the three would be darting through the streets of Kumo, Kiseragi himself taking to the rooftops to bypass large crowds for a few village blocks before once more taking to the streets and into the path of the mountains itself. During this time he would here the plethora of hows coming from each side of the mountain and a smile went slowly on his face," They picked the wrong area to come into...Come into our home as an intruder and not even the cold will save you up here," though it would sound as if he was speaking to himself, the very thought could be translated literally as well. When he had heard Hato's report he nodded in affirmation before speaking," Good. You two handle the other three and i'll take care of the leader. Remember your training and if possible bring them back alive. Meet with me when you've taken them down? If we're in agreement we shall split here. Be on your best you two and good luck," as if on cue he would release a howl of his own that would be responded in kind.

Veering to the left he would soon disappear into the darkness of the mountain. With each movement he made he was further up the mountain and on the backs of his pack within minutes. The wolves had caught the scent of the intruders which coincidentally had intertwined with the direction they were going. He was intended to catch them from the front while the others caught them from the back. After a few moments he would come into the clearing in which those four would come to be, wolves on his left and right. No weapons were drawn as he stood there in the distance, his sharingan glowing in the darkness as he looked at them," Stop and return or be taken down. You have only one chance to do the right thing. If not? Then the orders are clear. Dead or alive so choose your option wisely," of course he had fully anticipated for Jiro and Hato to come up from behind to keep them from going the other way.

Three weaklings and one whose chakra was considerable, if he posed any sort of threat to the team. Jiro didn’t know the ninja heading up the mountain but he assumed at least one of them was a close combat user, so their abilities may be misleading. Especially, because jounin could hide their chakra and could teach the ability to others. Jiro wished to learn such an ability for his mission, but he needed money at the moment and this mission labeled S rank was the way to get it.


“My portals can only go about one-hundred meters from me, but I could just pull us into my world, speed time there, and teleport us to them in mere seconds of this world’s time.” Although, we are gaining ground on them and that method well it makes my eye bleed and it hurts. “The jutsu is very taxing on me, I would prefer to not use it unless required, as we are closing in on them.”


Kiseragi told the team the plan it was Sano and Jiro against a trio of genin I hope they don’t beat me up like the last genin I fought did. Was all he could think about as he ran behind the lady who had beat him up. Though she did kiss me on the cheek after, so it wasn’t all bad. Jiro would shake his own head he had to focus back up. Their leader then increased his pace and veered left.


He would look in that direction seeing the jounin move that way. He could see the chakra of people upon the mountain with his sharingan. “Targets in my sights, let’s bring’em back alive.” He would say moving as fast as he could to come behind the fleeing party. Jiro kept his eyes on their leader as well it would be good to know when he got in front of the group, because that was when Jiro and Hato would arrive behind them.


“Surrender is advisable, as our odds have been evened.” The chuunin would state. The group of genin could see the jounin jacket Kiseragi wore and the chuunin one Jiro wore, they understood the odds were not in their favor. They turned to look at Jiro and Hato if she were there before returning their eyes to their teacher. The confusion of what to do on their face was evident. Would they surrender and blame their instructor or fight despite the odds. The Uchiha hoped there would be no fight at all and that it wasn’t this group that had stolen the documents and they were just out doing some sort of training like Jiro had been.

The chuunin would give them the time needed to make the decision, but he kept his eyes on each one of them. Any sudden movements and they would be hit with illusions, Jiro was ready to weave seals or just use his eyes at any second. He hoped the shock of having to break them with his chakra would make them too tired to fight after.

The howls of the wolves echoed through the mountains. They were a powerful group of summons, based off the fact that they were able to track down the intruders in their home land. It was a foolish mistake on behalf of the thief that they didn't even mean to make. Hato liked that about them. She never personally wanted a wolf summon but the more Kiseragi presented their abilities, the more Hato also wanted that ability.

Jiro explained to Hato, after she asked if he could just make a portal, that he could but the limit is only 100 meters and that the other jutsu he had was also taxing on her. Hato was a bit puzzled because they were within the 100 meter range but decided not to press any further on the matter as Kiseragi seemed to have a plan. 

With the information Hato provided, Kiseagi advised that Hato and Jiro take out the three genin leveled while he takes out the leader of the thieves. Hato nodded to show the Jonin that she agreed. Just then, the wolf jonin howled like on of the summons and speed off towards the thieves. Jiro would confirm the targets with his chakra vision. Hato and Jiro would head for the target, following Kiseragi. 

They entered the mountains. Since it was night, the area was quite dangerous due to not being able to see all the area. The only lighting in the area was the moon that shown down onto the mountain. Yet, clouds made the threat of total blindness more real. On coming rock falls could be fatal, slipping and falling off a cliff and obviously getting eaten by wolves that hunt in the area at night. The ominous mountains normally ward off people from entering the dangerous area but not for these idiots. Hato had minor experience in these mountains with missions and training. It was enough to get her through avoiding the dangers of the mountains.

First to arrive at them was the jonin. It got them to stop as he was able to get in his warning about them leaving and that they should surrender. That allowed Hato and Jiro to get on the other side of the path, blocking them in. Jiro gave his own words of warning to them, leaving Hato the only one not to say anything yet. "You stole something important to the village. The consequences won't be light if you don't give them back and surrender yourselves." To honest, Hato wanted to fight the three genin. Not only will it allow her to flex some skill but she would also be able to see what the jonin can do. 

From where she was positioned, Hato was able to see Kiseagi faced forward. She noticed that the jonin also had the sharigan. Since Jiro and Kis had the same dojustu, she figured that they were related and were in the same clan. Also, from what she was told by Jiro, back when they were training together and she was totally kicking his ass, he explained a lot of the abilities the Sharingan had. The ability to dispel and use genjutsu, the increase in chakra when it's activated and its ability to give the user more awareness was enough for Hato to get interested in the eyes. However, when she saw it in person, they were in the hands of someone still trying to learn how to use them. Kisergi was a jonin and had lots of experience with the eyes, he must of been much more adapted to the abilites. She was curious of their capabilities in the eye sockets of someone worthy.

It had all come down to this decisive factor between the two groups. Kiseragi and the two. The Jounin and his three genin. A lot could happen in these moments alone that could easily prevent one or both groups from going home to their families. Kiseragi had eyes on the Jounin specifically as he heaved a small sigh," Look you have only a few options to even get out of this remotely alive. Your charges are already heavy on you, and this single act is grave enough to mark you as missing ninja of the village. Did you even consider what this would do to those who look up to you and follow your every move? You are putting these genin in harms way of losing everything, but I surmise you have already thought about that huh?," he could easily tell in the small, minute shifts in the mans body language that Kiseragi had him pinned to a letter. The problem was that as his subordinates looked to their leader for some sense of conciliation, the man merely smiled and shrugged.

"They knew the consequences of coming with me as well as the reward. This mission is of the utmost importance and these files here could very well turn the tide for some very...rich clientele. Better to make ourselves rich than wait to be slaughtered. We all know what is on the horizon and how the precipice of whatever "peace" we have in this village is about to spill over. So why not take what we can and do something for ourselves?" The man had spoken an inkling of truth, but what he was currently doing was suicide. The small breath that came out of Kiseragi's mouth had silently went into the air as he made a single motion with his hand, causing all of the wolves to leave the area, but not too far from them. They simply positioned themselves within the boundaries to assure that they did not escape. He knew this would become a fight very soon and to avoid collateral damage he sent them away.

His eyes didn't leave the man but he would he address the others to assure them of what would happen if they continued on this route," You know what you are doing is wrong and yet you adamantly follow the advice of the serpent. If you continue on this path you will never be a shinobi again in your life. You will never see your families. Do any of you want that? As soon as this village was given its peace once more you want to defile it and sell it to someone? How certain are you that he will keep his word and give you your cut? Or will he sell you out in order to flee?," the words that he spoke slowly began to take root as they began to argue among themselves about whether or not he could deliver or would he betray them. The man slowly began to crumble under the mere thought of betrayal that he began to grind his teeth. This was what the Jounin had wanted. To sow the seeds of desertion between the group and have them do the work for them.

Unfortunately that would not be the case as the leader began his final gambit. Out of anger he grabbed one of the genin and began to hold them at knife point, looking at the three of them with a burning fire in his eyes," Look here! I have come too far to be thwarted by the wild bastard and his stooges. Get out of my way or i'll kill this little imp, I swear it on my own life I will if you don't move Kiseragi. You two take care of those other two or you'll end up like this wimp here. Don't get cold feet because this nobody talks big. He won't do anything when I have a hostage," the others were thinking over their current course of action. Become bait...or fight to live? The power of fear and the anxiety of trying to live filled their body as they looked at both Hato and Jiro with the intent to actually fight them. Pulling out Kunai they would begin to move toward the two, but Kiseragi had only sighed for a moment," Take them alive if possible...As for him," the ringing of steel being released from its vessel began to sound throughout the mountains as Kiseragi smiled," He will be cut down to size."

The Jounin sighed for a moment seeing that his bluff was called and instead stabbed the captive genin in the side determined to let him bleed out if necessary. Throwing him onto a nearby ledge he unsheathed his own weapon and growled," Now that my entire plan is up in flames, I have a better idea. Take your head and deliver it to my new bosses in tandem with the documents...That would surely give me a promotion and them some. The fabled eyes of an Uchiha always fetch a high price," the man was already confident he could beat Kiseragi in a match of swords and he would surely be disappointed in the results that he would obtain. In a quite moment the two would be in front of one another, the clashing of swords filling the air as they began their match. Kiseragi thought of ending this quickly, but he wanted this to be a lesson. Not a massacre. The man had such predicable movements that it caused Kiseragi to chuckle under his breath. Even the with enhanced vision of the Sharingan, this man's movements were like watching an academy student use a kunai for the first time.

He didn't bother looking over to see what had been going on with Hato and Jiro's fight since he would assume they would end it quickly so that they could attend to the injured. If they had finished earlier than he would have thought, his sword would come to meet the males swinging hand, slicing through tendon and bone. The splatter of blood touched the ground and the kimono of Kiseragi as he slowly cleaned his blade of the filth and sheathed his blade," Seems like our little playtime is over. You've lost and you can no longer fight me without your swinging hand now can you? I will not kill you now and allow our Raikage to determine your punishment. Jiro. Hato. Finish tending to that wounded one over there, then when you are done go get someone to come and get them," of course it was always when the victor had spared the life of the guilty, they would try something when their back was turned.

Grabbing a kunai from their left pouch they would angrily rush at Kiseragi with a roar," I'F I AM GOING DOWN YOU ARE COMING WITH ME YOU BASTARD!!!," the voice echoing off of the rocks of the mountains. It would have felt like a moment for the man, but for Kiseragi it was a second," I take back what I said...You will die here now," if the two had been paying attention, the three tomoe state would slowly form into a different form as blood trickled form his right eye. As the small stream flowed and Kiseragi met eyes with the man, a spout of black flame would overtake him as he screamed in agony and tried to roll to get the flames out. Turning fully to face the man he would sigh and wipe the trail of blood from his face," You will not be able to put out the unquenchable flames for they have deemed you guilty. Now burn under the weight of your sins and know that this will be your life forever more," though he had only set aflame his face and the arm that he tried to attack him with, Kiseragi made sure to leave the area that contained the documents untouched. After a moment or two he would relinquish the flames as his eyes returned to the three tomoe state," That...was an unsettling feeling," the strain from just using the jutsu caused him to shake his head.

With that being done he turned to the two probably knowing that someone would ask him a question about what had just happened. He kept his eyes on Jiro and Hato for a moment to answer any questions for the time being.

It would seem Jiro’s companions had made the judgement this group were thieves before even having any shred of evidence. The chuunin was aware their activity was suspicious and offered them a surrender to head back to the village with their freedom. Their jounin leader however had other plans for them as he literally monologues himself into revealing his treachery. “You have got to be the dumbest…” No, no I’m not even going to explain how he could have been a smarter antagonist.


Jiro would just listen gathering every detail of the man’s plans. His accomplices were aware of the plan and followed, so by no means were they innocent. Kiseragi did not take them at fault fully it would seem as he mentioned they could still be ninja even after all of these things went down. But as their leader continued the words began to sow distrust amongst them. They bickered as Jiro stood by waiting for someone to make a move. Aoi moved first Jiro saw each motion slowly as he reached for a member of his team. Jiro would have stopped him, but eliminating one of your own colluders was just hilarious.


As Aoi threatened Kiseragi about how he would not attack with a hostage and the armed genin closed in Jiro would laugh. “Why wouldn’t he attack you and your hostage? You just said they knew about stealing the documents and the reward. That isn’t a hostage its an accomplice.” Looking at one of the genin Jiro’s eyes would flash as the sharingan invaded one of their minds, as they began to slash wildly in front of himself where no one was standing. Jiro showed the genin an illusion that he had moved in closer when the real Jiro was standing over ten meters away. The genin was moving slowly west still attempting to slash the illusion even using a fireball jutsu to attempt to hurt the illusion which would phase every time it was about to be “struck”.


“That one is going to move away the last is clear for you.” He would whisper to Hato. Aoi had slashed his shield and thrown them to the side already. For some reason the jounin was once again monologuing. You haven’t heard yourself talking enough? Looking over to the genin in his genjutsu, tiring from trying to fight an illusion, he would say. “You are in a genjutsu, release it.” The genin did as told and passed out from exhaustion. According to plan. The sound of steel clashing filled the air, but Kiseragi was evidently taking things slow. By no means was he using his full speed on the other hand Aoi seemed to be having trouble keeping up in their casual duel.


A few slashes later Aoi’s hand was dismembered and it lay on the ground the fingers still twitching slightly. The jounin was on the ground attending to his wounded arm when Kiseragi told Jiro and Hato to attend to the wounded genin. Hato was the medic of the group and Jiro had no jutsu to help the kid, so he would just move over to the injured while keeping an eye on the battleground, they could be ambushed at any moment. Aoi would stand up the endorphins flooding his system and charge toward their leader, it was futile. As Kiseragi’s sharingan took a unique form and black flames engulfed parts of Aoi’s body. The blood coming from Kiseragi’s eyes confirmed he had unlocked the advanced sharingan state he himself had, but with a different power. Though it was also brought forth from the same eye.


When the flames went out and Kiseragi wiped his eyes along with calling the feeling he was having unsettling Jiro would interject. “Yeah, when I use kamui it feels like that.” Black fire from his eye, an obvious ability given his chakra nature affinity. “So, the patterned sharingan grants unique abilities in the right eye. Perhaps both, the blood is from strain placed on the eyes. Is this a side effect of the eyes that becomes lessened with use or are there other methods.” There were so many questions Jiro had assumed his sharingan was quite rare, but Kiseragi was using it as well.


“Did you acquire the loss state recently?” Jiro did not know the actual term for what their eyes had become and merely called it the loss state due to it requiring the loss of someone close to awaken. The question was rude and could have been asked with more tact in retrospect. “Sorry, if the question brings up anything bad, I am just trying to figure this out for the raikage.”


Once, Jiro had his answers and everyone was ready to head out, he would group everyone together. “I can teleport us all back to the village jail where these genin can await their punishment, everyone just has to be in contact with me.” With one on his back he would wait for them all to touch him before his mangekyou would activate and the area around his right eye swirled. Within moments they would be moved to the jail where a guard at the gates could receive the criminals.

Jiro would wipe the blood from his eye, the jutsu leaving his right eye a little fuzzy. “Why is it always blurry after I use it.” He would ask to no one except himself. The pain and blur went away quickly, but it made him want to throw up each time. When the genin were taken Jiro would wait to be dismissed before heading home.
