Chapter 15 The Land of Waves
We arrived In Tazuna's house that night, he knocked on the door and waited. The door opened and a middle aged woman with blue hair let loose opened the door;
Tsunami, Mother
Lv- 12
REP- 20
"Father!" she cried out as she hugged the man, "I was so worried!"
"I'm alright Tsunami," Tazuna smiled as he hugged her back, "these ninjas brought me here safely."
She looked over and noticed us. She immediately bowed, "thank you for protecting my father."
"It's our pleasure," Kakashi smiled, "not to seem rude, but may we come in? It's been a long day."
"Off course!" she welcomed us inside and quickly showed us to the dining room, the largest room in the house, "would you like something to eat? We have some rice and fish you like. I'm sorry we don't have anything else to offer, it's just...trade hasn't been that good this past year."
"Rice sounds lovely," Kakashi said as we all sat down in the living room, with Kakashi at the head and Tazuna sitting next to him. "Starting tomorrow I'll be training you three," Kakashi said, "I realised that you all are..woefully ill prepared for a fight, so, for the remainder of the mission you three will be training with me."
"What about me?!" Tazuna asked, "I still need protection! Gato could send more men after me!"
"That's where Yami comes in," Kakashi pointed at me, "he'll be more than enough to fight anyone off."
"The kid?!" Tazuna gasped, "b-but you're the jonin! Won't I be safer with you?!"
"Actually, right now, Yami is the best option for you," Kakashi spoke as he read his book, "he's the one who took care of our enemy ninja problem, not me. So you're in good hands, trust me."
"Yami did?" Sasuke snapped, "I thought it was you."
"Nope. All Yami. I didn't even have to lift a finger," Kakashi replied turning a page.
"Amazing," Sakura said as they looked at me.
I chuckled, "stop, you're making me blush. Plus Kakashi sensei is giving me way more credit than I deserve."
"No, I really am not," he replied, "anyway, Yami, you're going with Tazuna, keep him safe and keep an eye out. Like Tazuna said, this Gato man could grow desperate and hire bigger thugs, we won't know until he makes his next move, so until then, be weary."
"Right...hey could I borrow a couple of Naruto's clones?" I asked.
"Hmm? What for?" Kakashi asked.
"The bridge," I explained, "Tazuna, how many workers do you have on hand?"
The man scratched h beard, "depends. I have to get people onboard with the idea first, so far I only have five people willing to work with me. I'm hoping when I go into town tomorrow I can really more."
"Exactly, Naruto's clones can serve as a powerful workforce," I nodded, "hence Tazuna gets some much needed help and his entire bridge building process goes by a lot faster."
"Hm...fine, I don't see a problem with it," Kakashi waved my request.
"Hey! I'm not a pack animal!" Naruto complied.
"You're whatever the mission needs you to be Naruto," I smiled at him as removed my hood and mask, sighing, "God that thing's stuffy."
"Alright, foods ready!" Tsunami said as she walked in and stopped suddenly as she looked at me. She blinked twice as I saw her REP raise from 20 to 45. Hm….maybe I should stop wearing a hood and face mask?
The Next Day:
"How many do you want?" Naruto asked.
"As many as you can make without hurting yourself," I told him as we stood outside Tazuna's house, ready to start our respective assignments.
"You asked for it!" Naruto made the now familiar seal causing the entire property to be covered in smoke revealing an army of Naruto's.
"Let go Dattebayo!"
"I'm pumped! Yeah!"
Tazuna blinked, "t-that's a lot! How many are there?!"
"Around a thousand I guess," I shrugged as I made a shadow clone with 300 CP. It appeared next to me before jumping onto the house's roof and disguising itself as a bird.
"Why did you do that?" Tazuna asked.
"In order to keep an eye on your family," I informed the man, "they're probably in danger because of Gato. If anything happens my clone will take care of it."
"That's smart thinking Yami!" Naruto said with a grin.
"Naruto! Come on! We have to start training!" Kakashi called out as he and the rest of team seven stood in the backyard.
"Right! Coming!" he turned to us, "good luck!" he then ran to the backyard, leaving us with a thousand versions of himself.
"All right you lot! I want you all to henge into a common looking civilian! The purpose is to make it seem like lots of people are onboard with this idea, prompting more people to take part! Make it a random person and make it plain, ordinary! Forgetful! And drop your henge for any reason unless I say so!" I ordered the clones.
"Right!" they cried out as they did just that. And now we had an army of civilians that looked ready for anything.
I turned to Tazuna, "lead the way."
"R-right," he nodded as he looked around before walking into town, "our first stop is the carpenter's guild in town. Hopefully I can convince the people there to come with us."
I nodded as we walked into town. The place was...well, garbage. The tow was broken down, buildings were either half broken or covered with mold. People were living on the streets, in boxes and wearing rags.
Things were bad, I could see it with my own eyes. Even Naruto's clones felt it, the pain. I turned around, "you know something Naruto? Technically, they're your people. So it's your responsibility to help."
"Right," the nearest clone replied, "but...how?"
I smiled, "don't worry, I'll help." The clones nodded as we moved into the heart of the town. We arrived at a large well maintained building in the middle of two where five people came out to meet Tazuna.
They talked for a bit, I stood close and watched as the serpent convinced the men to join up. Then the six went inside and talked to more people, asking them to join. Tazuna even played out trump card, the small labour force, and that got people excited.
Soon we had around twenty carpenters on board, all 20 followed Tazuna to the bridge site, which was currently just a slab of concrete and nothing else.
"All right then!" Tazuna said as he turned to face the small army of clones, "I'm guessing all of you don't know anything about bridge building yeah?"
The clones nodded. Tazuna sighed, "this is going to be a pain. I'll have to explain it to each and everyone of you."
"Not necessarily," I told him, "just explain it to one clone and the others will learn it automatically."
"What? Really?!" a clone asked amazed, "we can do that?!"
I nodded, "yup, Tazuna, you don't you divide them up into different groups for the task you need them to do. Then explain to one person from each group what needs to happen and they'll all learn, sounds like a plan?"
"Well, if they can really do that then yes!" the bridge builder nodded enthusiastically as he did just that.
I honestly wasn't surprised Naruto didn't know the thing about clones transferring memories, but hopefully now he would, and he would actually use that knowledge to become stronger.
Two weeks later:
"I'm so fucking bored!" I cried out from atop a pile of wooden beams. I grumbled as everyone ignored me by now even the clones started to get into the groove of things, working overtime, determined to make this bridge, to save their people.
I guess my little push worked a little too well.
The bridge was halfway done already, I know, amazing right? Two weeks of nonstop labour and the bridge was halfway finished, it would have taken much longer if NAruto's clones hadn't helped out, but luckily they were.
Tazuna actually managed to double the number of people working for him over the two weeks time, people were slowly getting hope back into their hearts and pride in their work. I could see it in their eyes. They still live in filth, but there was that spark, I remember seeing it in Naruto's eyes. I guess it's just a thing that descendants from Uzushiogakure have.
The kids training has been going well, like I expected Kakashi had trained them in tree walking, and since NAruto already knew it Kakashi taught him a new jutsu, a wind release since that's what I taught him.
Eventually thought Kakashi had determined enough training had been done, so the kids now had to come to guard duty with me, which is why Kakashi and Sakura now sat next to me overlooking the construction of the bridge.
"You know, if you're really that bored you could take a break," Kakashi said as he flipped through his book.
I groaned, "and do what?"
"Well, you could explore the land," Sakura said with a shrug, "you did say it used to be a ninja village yes? Maybe you can find something interesting."

I blinked, "that's it!" I jumped on my feet, "I've decided, I'm going on a treasure hunt! Kakashi, here," I tossed him a fanged dagger which he caught effortlessly, "throw it if you need me back and I'll do my best to arrive on time! I'll probably be gone for a few days though, this land in pretty big!"
"Don't die," he responded and with that I was off.
First thing's first, I needed information, the old kind. So I began asking around for the oldest person in the town and soon found an old woman, one Miezu Tomo, an old bat around a hundred years of age.
I found her house in the edge of town and walked to the front door, knocking, "hello, is anyone there?"
"Come in, it's open," came a sad voice.
I opened the door and walked in, the house was small, so small there was only one room and an old lady sitting in that room in a rocking chair. Her hair was blood red, her eye pale milky white, and over her head was a name, but it wasn't Tomo;
Misu Uzumaki,
Lv- 41
REP- 0
The woman smiled, "who is it? I don't recognize the voice. Is it a new child? Come to hear stories from grandmother Misu have you?"
I blinked, "you're an Uzumaki aren't you?"
"What?" the woman snapped with fear in her voice, "w-what are you talking about? Who are you?!"
"My name is Yami...I'm a ninja from Konoha," I told her as I walked in, "and you're an Uzumaki."
"Why do you say that little shinobi?" the woman asked.
"Your hair," I replied, "it's bright red...Uzumaki red."
"Oh that, oh no dear boy, I just dye my hair, it's nothing special," the woman laughed, but I knew she was lying.
"No, there's no way that's a dye, it's too...perfect. You're an Uzumaki, an Uzumaki is the only one who can live for so long and yet maintain the colour of their hair. They have been blessed with long life and...you're one."
She began to grow angry, "I don't know what you're insinuating boy! I don't like your tone! I demand you leave my house at once or else I'll call for help!"
"No wat! Please, just listen to me for a moment! You're the first Uzumaki I've met! In fact you're the only Uzumaki in this town! There's another one! Right here!"
"What? Impossible!" she scoffed.
"It's true. His name is Naruto Uzumaki, he's an orphan from Konoha and he's been assigned to protect Tazuna the bridge builder. He's staying just a few streets away….could you possibly met him? He doesn't have any family and...you're the closest thing he has to a grandmother."
The woman was silent, for a long time she said nothing. And then she opened her mouth, "why do you care so much for the reunion of two Uzumaki's?"
"Because Naruto's like a brother to me," I told her, "we were both orphans, and we both grew up together. I may not be his brother by blood but...I am his family, the only one he got….well, until now," she looked away, I sighed and continued, "please, I'm begging you. I swear I won't tell another living soul, just...just met him."
She said nothing, looking down, in shame or regret I couldn't say. And finally, after five minutes, she spoke, "very well...take me to him."
I nodded, "right...do you have a wheelchair or something? Or do you wish me to carry you?"
"I can walk," she got up from the chair, using a cane to hold herself upright, "I'm old, not a cripple."
I smirked, "right...shall we?" We walked out, she set the pace...which was slow, like a sloth. But I didn't complain, I couldn;t. Eventually though the silence got too much for me, I had to talk. "So...where you a ninja for Uzushiogakure?"
She looked over at me, "why do you think I'm a ninja boy?"
"You feel like one," I told her, at her questioning gaze I continued, "I'm a chakra sensor, I can feel people's strength levels. You're around low chunin and you….you're unique chakra signature...that's another reason I thought you were an Uzumaki."
Lie successful!
She snorted, "and here I was thinking my ninjutsu was up to make," she folded her sleeves revealing a seal on her hands, "damn things must be broken if you can sense me."
I couldn't, I couldn't trace a bit of chakra from her. I honestly thought she was a civilian until I saw her name and level. "So you know Uzumaki fuinjutsu?" I whistled, "damn grandma, that's impressive, haven't seen that in ages."
She snorted, "of course you have, it's a secret for a reason...tell me, the Uzumaki you found, does he had a good head on his shoulders?"
I snorted, "Naruto's a moron. I tried to teach him seals, but he never took to anything more complex than an explosion tag. Honestly, that boy is dumb...but he is intelligent in other ways."
"How?" Misu asked.
"Emotionally intelligent," I told her, "he's one of the most empathetic people I know. He's not as good as I am with seals, but he does have a way with people."
"Hm...so you're a wannabe seal master huh?" she snorted.
"Nothing about me is a wannabe you old hag," I snorted, "I'm probably the best seal master you'll ever met."
"That's quite a bold claim, especially when being said to an Uzumaki," she smirked.
"I reverse engineered the Flying Thunder God jutsu in five days. I'm pretty sure my claim holds water," I smirked back.
She faltered in her steps, "w-what?! Five days?! You figured out an S rank space time ninjutsu in five days?!"
I smirked, "not a wannabe now am I?"
"Show me," she snapped.
I raised an eyebrow at her tone but complied. I took out a dagger and showed it to her. She looked over at the seals and nodded. I then threw the dagger away before zooming over to grab it and then zooming back to her side.
"Interesting," she hummed, "you integrated the anchor matrix to one of control, not power. You would need to have phenomenal chakra control to be able to use your sealing matrix . But that also gives you an almost unlimited range, hm, very interesting."
I smirked, "finally, someone who speaks my language!"
We continued on our way to Tazuna's house, Misu and I compared notes and spoke fuinjutsu along the way. She wasn't very forthcoming with her clan's kinjutsu, but, I was very open about my seal ideas. She actually gave me a few helpful tips, hopefully they can lead to somewhere.
When we arrived in Tazuna's place she stopped. I looked at her, "what's wrong?"
"I-I can feel him," she said in awe as a small tear drop came from her eyes, "I can feel his chakra...he's an Uzumaki...another Uzumaki."
I smirked, "yeah...come on, let's meet him." We walked inside, "hey! I'm back! And I brought company!" I called out as we walked in.
Everyone was inside, sitting around the dining table sipping tea, they had just finished their lunch break. Tazuna sat at the head with Kakashi and Sakura in one side and Naruto and Sasuke on another.
"Hey Yami! What are you doing here?1 Kakashi sensei said you're going on a treasure hunt!" Naruto cried out.
"And I did," I smiled as I stepped aside revealing Misu to everyone, she immediately grabbed their attention.
"Old woman Misu?" Tazuna said looking confused, "what are you doing here?"
Misu ignored him, instead all her attention was on Naruto. She moved, her larger frame taking her across the room in seconds. Naruto leaned back a little, afraid, but Misu just smiled at him, her eyes slowly tearing up as she cupped his face.
"A-an Uzumaki," she said as she caressed his cheek, "a really Uzumaki."
"What's going on? Who is this woman?"Sakura asked curiously.
"She's Miezu Tomo, the oldest woman in the village," Tazuna spoke, "she's around a hundred years old. She used to tell us all stories about the village back in the past, about when it was the land of Whirlpools, when Uzushiogakure still stood."
"She's more than that," I told him, "she's also an Uzumaki."
Kakashi looked up from his book, "what?"
"An Uzumaki? Like Naruto?" Sakura asked.
"She's my relative?!" Naruto cried out in surprise.
"Yes, I am," Misu finally spoke, breaking the tension in the room, "and I have waited so long to see one of my people again...you're ahir...it may not be red, but your chakra, it's definitely an Uzumaki's."
I blinked, "wait, I thought you were blind."
"Then how did I walk all the way here without your help?" she asked.
"Well...you are a ninja," I shrugged.
She smiled and made the bird seal, her eyes suddenly turned form milky white to a raw powerful purple that seemed to peer into my soul, "a simple trick, guess you aren't as clever as you think sonny boy."
"Those eyes...they're exactly like my mom's," Naruto spoke in a hushed tone.
Misu turned to him, "your mother? What was her name?"
Naruto took out his pendant and showed her the photo he had of her, "her name was-"
"-Kushina," Misu finished with a gasp as she took the pendant with her shaking hands, "Kushina...the little tomato."
"What?" Naruto blinked.
"That's what we called her when she was born," Misu said with a choking voice, "her head was so perfectly round, her hair bright red, just like a tomato."
"You know my mother?!" Naruto asked.
Misu nodded, "yes, I did. She was my cousin...my uncle's daughter. The youngest child in my home...and the youngest of the main household."
My eye winded, "holy shit."
"Oh...I did not know that," Kakashi said sounding very surprised.
"What? What does that mean?" Naruto asked.
"It means Naruto," Misu said his name with soft kindness, "that you are the last male heir of the main Uzumaki family, the heir to Uzushiogakure."
I blinked, "damn…so is Naruto's a prince?"
Misu blinked, "in the strictest sense, yes. He is."
"Alright!" Naruto cried out, "I'm a prince! Here that Sakura?! Wait, does that mean is Sakura and I get married she would be a princess?!"
"NARUTO! Don't stay stuff like that!" the pinkette blushed red while the others snickered, even Sasuke cracked a smile.
Misu sat down and we'll all listened to her story. She was a chunin when Uzushiogakure fell. She obeyed her Hokage's orders and went into hiding along with a few others. She survived till this date, hiding her origins and keeping an ear to the ground, hoping to see another Uzumaki. And now, after all these years, her mission was complete.
"That's so cool!" Naruto cried out, "I have a grandma!"
Misu chuckled as Naruto hugged her, she patted his back gently, "and I have a grandson," she turned to me, "and it's all thanks to you boy. Thank you."
I smiled, "don't mention it."
"Hey grandma Misu!" Naruto cried out, "do you think you can teach me some cool clan jutsu?!"
I snorted, "I doubt it. Naruto, you're clan specialised in fuinjutsu."
"W-what?! No way!" Naruto groaned, "now I can never learn it!"
"Nonsense," Misu huffed, "an Uzumaki that doesn't know seals? Impossible. I'm sure you just need the right teacher to help you along."
"But the last person to try way Yami! And if he can't teach me no one can!'
"Not true," Kakashi spoke, "Yami may be a seal master in his own right, but no one can challenge an Uzumaki when it comes to fuinjutsu. For the remainder of this trip you can train with her Naruto, learn whatever you can from her."
"Really? Thanks Kakashi sensei!" Naruto cheered.
"Kakashi? Kakashi Hatake?" Misu asked, "the son of the White Fang?"
Kakashi nodded, "yes. Why do you ask?"
"I met your father once," Misu spoke, "he was very kind to me. It's strange that both you and an Uzumaki great me at the same time...Yami, which clan do you belong to?"
I shrugged, "no clan, I'm an orphan."
"I see," her eyes softened, "I'm sorry to hear that."
"Neah, it's fine, it's not like you killed my parents."
"But still, you have given me a lot Yami," she squeezed Naruto's hand, "if there's anything I can do, please, just ask."
"Hm, could you teach me some Uzumaki seals?"
"I'm sorry, but I'm only allowed to teach members of the Uzumaki family," she replied, "it's a clan rule."
"But Yami's practically family!" Naruto cried out, "he's my brother!"
"That may be, but rules are rules."
"But-"
"-It's fine Naruto," I told him, "rules are rules. Keep your clan's secrets, it's fine...but could you by chance point me in the direction of the Uzushiogakure ruins? That was why I came to you in the first place."
"Why did you want to find the ruins?" she asked.
"Boredom," I told her with a shrug, "I was just curious is all. Not everyday you get to explore a land that used to be feared in over three great Lands."
"Hm, very well, I don't know what you'll find there though. The land has been burnt to the ground and people have been robbing it bare for the past half century, but, if you do find something you're welcome to it. Consider it a rewards for your efforts."
She put down the location of the village on a map and gave it to me. I thanks her and that night we all stayed for dinner with NAruto bombarding the woman with questions about their ancestral home.
The Next Day:
I left early the next day, like 4 in the morning early. I stepped out and took a deep breath, letting the cool morning air touch my soul.
"Swift Release: Speed up Times 10!" I charged up and zoomed off. This jutsu took up 100 CP every ten seconds. I produced 58% CP every thirty seconds, meaning I made around 2,800 CP every thirty seconds or 900 CP every ten seconds. More than enough to allow me to keep this speed up indefinitely.
And the next time I level up, I'll reach 1,000 CP every ten seconds, allowing me to move on to the next level, but for now, I would have to settle for this.
I moved south, the village was hidden in the south apparently on a cliff that looked over the ocean. I ran for about an hour when I finally reached my SP limit, forcing me to stop. Luckily though, I had already reached the coast line.
I waited for my SP to recover before I went ahead, looking around the coast for any sign of a a village existing here. I went up and down the area over a hundred times, it soon became night. I continued my search, but eventually even I got bored.
I found a small cover along the shore, the inside was bare, the floor was covered with water while the sides had a walkway made out of rocks. I settled onto the rockway for the night, using my coat as a pillow.
I looked up and found the night sky before me, the cove's roof was open wide. I honestly wasn't a bad place to come and relax for a while. Maybe I should make this place so that I could come again for a vacation.
I closed my eyes and let sleep take over, but I found the noise of the night poking into my head. The sound of crickets, the sound of the waves by the beach and the sound running water along...wait, running water?!
I got and immediately began looking around for the noise. I found a small spring in the end of the caev, tucked between two stones and so small one would not notice it if they didn't see it. The water fed into the cove's own water supply, I tasted the water, it was fresh, clean and fresh.
This wasn't possible, there's no way something like this could occur naturally...unless it didn't occur naturally.
I closed my eyes and allowed my chakra sensory powers to take over. I searched and felt the twinges of chakra just behind the stone wall before me. It was like something was growing inside, something strong. I need to break this wall down.
I stepped back and drew a fist, charging it up with chakra. "Fuck yeah!" I yelled, smashing it into the wall.
BOOM!
The entire stone surface collapsed. I jumped back to avoid the debris. Slowly The wall came down, releasing a cave entrance behind it. I smirked, this was awesome!
I walked in, the cave was dark, I used a fire jutsu to act like a torch as I walked in. The tunnel slowly grew bigger and bigger, until I came upon a small lake. It was huge, and on the other side was a hallway, an actually hallway.
I walked across the water and entered the hallway, the walls covered with Uzumaki swirls and other images, this must be a tunnel from the old Uzumaki village.
I walked further inside and found what looked to be a prayer hall, it had four large statues in it, each in one corner of the room with another hallway going out of the room. But the path was shut, collapsed from bedries, I think it must have been an escape route of some kind.
I looked at the statues in question, they were of people, each dressed in the old plate armour Madara and Hashirama used to wear,a ll making a hand seal, Tiger, Dragon, Bird and Hare. Below the statues were inscriptions, I walked closer and read it.
'Stands before you is Recca Uzumaki, the second Uzukage. His greatest creation being the discovery of the space and time branch of fuinjutsu.'
I read about this guy, his principles is what the second Hokage used to create the Flying Thunder God in the first place! This guy's a legend! I checked the other statues, the first, third and finally, the statue with the Dragon hand seal was the Daimyo, the Uzumaki that established Uzushiogakure in the first place.
I was in awe, even if I didn't discover anything else, this alone...it was worth it. But...I am a gamer, looting was part of the package.
"Alright," I cracked my neck, "show me your secrets..." I looked around, searching the entire chamber, but I found nothing, not a scroll, not a coin. The only thing I could find were the statues, hm, statues. Okay, let's go with that cliche shall we?
I stood before the Second Uzukage and made the Tiger seal which he had. Nothing. I continued before each only mirroring their poses, but once more, nothing. Maybe I need to do all four at once?
So I made three shadow clones and we each took our places, making the hand seals. And suddenly, the hall rumbled.
We all we on high alert as the center of the room began to open up. A pedestal came out of the ground and on it was were two storage scrolls.
I observed the pedestal and found no booby traps or tripe wires, it was safe to approach. I grabbed the scrolls and opened them up, finding something big sealed away inside of them.

Find a proof of the Uzushiogakure village!
Rewards:
Keyrune
Wings of Uzumaki
I blinked these must be what was sealed inside the scrolls. I put the bigger scroll on the ground and channeled chakra into it. There was a puff of smoke as a giant kite the shape of bat like wings appeared it.
The kite had a human harness on it, someone could actually wear it, though the wings looked too small to gain any lift to allow someone to fly into the air.
Wings of Uzumaki, A rank
Wings that were created by Uzushiogakure village to allow for flight. Channel chakra to activate.
Speed: 200 CP for 40 Km per hour
WARNING: Only an Uzumaki can use this!
I grumbled, great, so only Naruto could use this, just great. I sealed it back up, might as well have it as a gift for the brat. I then took the smaller scroll and put it on the ground, channeling chakra into it to release its content.
There was a puff of smoke as small rock with the kanji for 'key' appeared on the scroll.
Keyrune, D rank
Used to unlock a secret compartment, one use only.
I was surprised, so this was some kind of key? But where's the….I turned to the statues, I picked up the key and walked towards the Daimyo statue as slowly the stone began to glow. I stopped and moved towards the other statues, each gave off a similar reaction.
I can use this to unlock one of these statues...but which one? Maybe the messages on their statues would give a clue.
The second Uzukage's message spoke about his space time seals, so maybe it had something to do with that.
The first Uzukage spoke about how he defeated the armies of Kumo with a powerful water jutsu and the third Uzukage spoke about how talented he was with a blade.
The Daimyo however wa the most impressive. It spoke about how he single handedly protected the Land of Whirlpools from the Kyubi, bashing it away from the islands. If this wasn't propaganda, that mean this guy was strong enough to fight off the Kyubi! I had to have whatever he had stored away!
I approached his statue, the stone glowing brighter and brighter. I placed it on his statue and suddenly, I heard a click. The tablet with all the details of his life came open like a drawer, relating an object inside.
It was bracelet, a white bracelet the size of my face. It was thick, around five inches thick with a black stripe going down the middle. I narrowed my eyes and observed it;
Ring of Stars, S rank
A ring forged from a fallen star. It can absorb any amount of chakra and exclude it in the form of blades. It multiplies the CP given by 10.
CP- X
DMG: 10 times X
Alright, now I'm impressed. And if something like this is in this storage contained, image what will be in the others?
I took the now inactive keyrune and let a dagger in the middle of the camber to come back later. I then left the room, back the way I came, and sealed the entrance I created by using a low level Earth jutsu to cover the tunnel once more.
I then walked out into the beach and took the Ring of Stars out. It was time to see what this thing could really do.
I held it in my hand, my fingers around the ring tight. I slowly channeled chakra into my hands, around 100 CP. I felt the ring stir up, the chakra in my hand began to pour out, seeping into the black line on the ring. It felt tight, like spokes on a wheel.
It began to push, forcing me to let go as the ring began to float down into my hand, spinning like a wheel with my hand being the axle.
And suddenly, three giant blades sprung out of the ring, blue, translucent, like the blades of a fuma shuriken. They spun with the ring, spinning in place. I smiled, drew my hand back and whipped it forward.
The ring flew out of my arm, like a bullet launched from a gun. It flew straight for about 20 feet before it spun off to the right, coming back to me like a boomerang. I caught it easily, and immediately it went over my arm again.
I threw it again, and this time aimed it at a nearby boulder. It coiled, blades first. The chakra ducked into the stone, like a drill hitting solid steel. Chucks of rock flew all over the place, I could see the energy the chakra blade took to break the stones apart. And suddenly, the Ring bounced away, flying over to me, almost leaping as it landed in my hand, no longer spinning.
The boulder was destroyed, broken apart, it was like something had crushed it with a giant hammer. The blades, they were strong, eerily similar to Naruto's Rasenshuriken.
