Leaf District

[Baldhead]

After landing on one of Konoha's training grounds with Gyoken, Takashi surveys the area, taking note of the flourishing trees and strategically placed stumps scattered across the landscape. Once there, Takashi gestures towards a nearby tree, indicating his chosen target for Gyoken's demonstration. With his two Byakugan, he watches as the Gyoken directs his chakra to his hands. It flows along the arms out to the fingertips before taking shape outside the body. Blue flames enveloped the young Uchiha's fists as he prepared to strike the tree in front of himself. With a swift strike, Gyoken releases his jutsu, causing a surge of blue flames to engulf the tree and sending a powerful shockwave rippling through the air, propelling Gyoken backwards. In the brief moments before impact, Takashi keenly observes the flow of Gyoken's chakra, noting a sudden loss of control at the moment of impact with the tree. This seems to be the reason why his technique suddenly increases in strength and after the effect of it is created so suddenly. As the Gyoken flies backwards, Takashi uses his speed and trained reflexes to intercept Gyoken's trajectory and catches him. When he catches the kid, Takashi slides backwards a few meters only before they come to a complete stop,Takashi offers a nod of approval. "Not bad kid, not bad at all. Had it been a living being, your jutsu would have undoubtedly ended its life there."


With that said, Takashi sets him down on the ground and looks at Gyoken's hands to see the damage he has caused himself as the tree smolders in the distance. "Your technique bears resemblance to one of my own," he remarks, his tone measured yet authoritative. "Stay still and observe closely.” Well aware of Gyoken's Dōjutsu and its abilities, such as the incredible clarity of perception and being able to copy almost any jutsu they see, memorizing ninjutsu, genjutsu, and taijutsu with near-perfect accuracy. Takashi positions himself about five meters away and begins to stretch. "Before making sudden movements, it is important that you soften your body and warm up." After a brief warm-up, he raises his right arm, clenching his right fist as he focuses his chakra. Controlling it carefully and masterfully it begins to gather in his fist before heat emanates from his hand, causing the air above to shimmer. "This is similar to the effect you're aiming for, Gyoken." Suddenly, Takashi brings his clenched fist down onto the ground, igniting flames that erupt around him in a controlled explosion. It's like a wall of fire has swallowed him up. The grass beneath him scorches, but Takashi remains unharmed. However, the flames only last as long as he makes contact with the ground with his hand. At the same time as he raises his hand, the flames around him begin to go out at the same rate. " But you don't just have to hit something solid to create a fiery explosion." With a quick upward strike with the same hand, Takashi creates small sparks before suddenly a towering pillar of fire is sent upward towards the sky above them, illuminating the training ground in a brilliant display of power and control.

The recoil from Gyoken's forceful jutsu sent him hurtling backward, a trajectory that would have ended abruptly against a sturdy tree had it not been for Takeshi's timely intervention. Gyoken found himself collapsing into his sensei's chest, a soft sigh escaping him as he felt the secure, yet strained support of Takeshi, who braced against the unexpected impact. Despite the setback, Gyoken's spirits were lifted, not by the imperfection of the execution, but by the potential he had tapped into. Takeshi's verbal approval resonated deeply, reinforcing Gyoken's belief in the formidable jutsu he was on the verge of mastering. Shortly after stabilizing, Gyoken settled onto the grassy field, his gaze fixed intently on Takeshi who positioned himself five meters away. Takeshi's demonstration was about to begin—an opportunity for Gyoken to refine his technique by observing a master at work. As Takeshi's fists ignited and struck the ground, Gyoken's Sharingan whirled into action, capturing every micro-second detail: the chakra flow, the heat of the flames, the wind's response, and the debris stirred from the earth. His eyes, like finely tuned instruments, recorded the sequence of movements and chakra manipulation.

Emboldened by his observations, Gyoken began to mimic the motions he had just studied. He stretched briefly, loosening his muscles in preparation. With a focused intensity, he raised his right arm, his fist clenched tight as chakra began to swirl and concentrate within. The air around his hand shimmered with rising heat, signaling the imminent release of chakra. With a decisive motion, Gyoken slammed his fist into the ground. Flames erupted around him, a brilliant blue wall of fire that danced and crackled with raw power. The grass beneath charred instantly, yet Gyoken, at the heart of this fiery spectacle, remained unscathed.

As he lifted his fist from the earth, the flames dissipated, retracting as if drawing breath back into the ground. Not yet finished, Gyoken followed with an upward strike, his movements fluid and precise. Sparks scattered from his fist before merging into a towering pillar of fire that shot towards the sky. Gyoken's excitement was palpable as he jumped up and down, his voice echoing across the field. "Woah Sensei, did you see that? It's almost as perfect as yours!" His enthusiasm was infectious, his eyes shining with the thrill of achievement and the promise of further mastery. This moment was not just a step forward in his training; it was a testament to his potential and a preview of the formidable ninja he was becoming.

Shijo, whether he knew it or not, had captured Tenbo's interest. The discourse between them was unlike any other; few could stir the emotions in Tenbo as Shijo did. It wasn’t merely because they both shared the blood of the Uchiha. Others, like Ichijo, Mirai, Mujin, and even Mugen, never engaged with the enigma of Tenbo’s world the way this prodigy before him had. It was flattering, but despite Tenbo's fascination with Shijo, it didn’t compromise his cautious nature. He wouldn't be swayed easily. He needed security, a failsafe system, before he could truly open up to someone as intelligent and potentially useful as Shijo. After all, his aura wasn’t one of impulsiveness or vulnerability. Those under his protection never needed to fear—unless they betrayed him. This was precisely why his younger brother, Mugen, had suffered the loss of an arm: disobedience and omission. Tenbo’s obsidian eyes swirled into the Sharingan, a significant signal. Shijo’s revelation of the leaf not only confirmed Tenbo's suspicions but also made him acknowledge Shijo as a high-ranking Anbu member. His senses heightened instantly, scanning the environment and confirming that no one outside of his influence was observing them. With this assurance, he urgently spoke to Shijo.

"You may become my apprentice upon acceptance of this... Follow me, receive and your desires will come true."
With those words, Tenbo vanished from the rooftop, slipping into a secure alley that he had scoped out briefly after activating his Sharingan and heightening his sensory levels. The alley was dark, flanked by vacant buildings, devoid of people—its only inhabitants being a scattering of rodents. It was notably free from spiders and other insects. Should Shijo decide to follow, he would find Tenbo with his Sharingan deactivated, hand outstretched in invitation the moment Shijo landed and signaled his acceptance. At that instant, Tenbo would impart a unique seal upon Shijo’s tongue, carried by all Root members, granting Shijo access to their ranks. His usage of this technique surpassed his predecessor with extra utility. Upon acceptance, Tenbo would then meld into the void of nothingness, blending seamlessly with the environment, invisible to all. As a prodigy, Shijo was expected to mask his actions similarly and follow his new commander. Their conversation could no longer take place in the exposed, unsecured rooftop environment. Should Shijo refuse, Tenbo would have no choice but to leave him behind, disappearing into the vast expanse of the wind with no further aid to offer.
