"Why?" Kaida asked in a cold tone, his deanor shifting dramatically.
"That's sothing you'll have to discuss with him," Saturo replied, amused by the sudden change in the boy's behavior.
"What if I don't want to et him?"
"This isn't a request, boy. It's an order from an elder of Konoha," Saturo replied.
"Hah! Okay, I'll co in 30 minutes," Kaida sighed and replied.
Both of them once again used the Body Flicker Technique to disappear but continued to keep an eye on Kaida from a distance. Kaida used Wind Release to dry off his sweat, put his clothes back on, and used wind instantaneous movent jutsu to head toward the Hokage's office.
The two Uchiha ninja used the Body Flicker Technique to follow him.
"Why is the brat going toward the Hokage's office?" Saturo asked.
"Don't know, but that boy is interesting, that's for sure," the second ninja said.
...
"Miss, I want to et with Grandpa. Please tell him I have sothing important to tell him. It's urgent," Kaida told the receptionist.
"Okay, I'll inform Lord Hokage."
After five minutes, Kaida was standing in front of Hiruzen.
"Grandpa, I want to talk to you in private," Kaida said.
Hiruzen nodded his head, and four ANBU ninja left the gate.
"So, Kaida, tell what you want to discuss," Hiruzen asked.
"Grandpa, an elder from the Uchiha compound is calling ."
"So?" Hiruzen asked.
"Since I awakened my Sharingan, they may ask to stay in the Uchiha compound, and I don't want to stay there. They exiled my mother and didn't even care to ask about when I was in an orphanage. And now that I have awakened the Sharingan, they want back. Hell no! But I can't go against a powerful clan's wishes on my own," Kaida said.
"So, you want to give you support and protection, huh?" Hiruzen asked.
"Yes, Grandpa," Kaida said.
"And why do you think I'll help you?" Hiruzen asked.
"Because if the Uchiha find out about my Transformation Technique, they'll have 50 ninjas with Sharingan and chakra blades exclusive to them only. This will disturb the delicate power balance of Konoha, which I'm sure you don't want," Kaida said. One can even see this as a threat, but Hiruzen knew that it was a very great reason presented to get the support he needs
"Hahaha, well said, my boy. Don't worry, you have my support. If you don't want to stay there, no one will be able to force you to do so," Hiruzen said with a smile. But suddenly, his smile vanished, and he said, "But try not to make enemies out of them, as I can't protect you 24/7."
"Don't worry, Grandpa. I understand. Then I'll take my leave," Kaida said and left the office.
'Hmph, it's great that this boy has a good brain with talent. I can consider him as a Hokage candidate as well, but let's wait and see first.'
...
Kaida used Wind Release: Instantaneous Movent Technique to reach the Uchiha compound. When he was about to enter the compound, he stopped using any jutsu and walked toward the gates so that he wouldn't appear rude.
Just when he entered the compound gate, those two ninja once again ca in front of him.
"Follow us, boy. We'll take you to the elder's office," Saturo said.
"Sir, my na is Kaida, Senju Kaida. You can call by my na," Kaida said.
The two looked at each other and laughed.
"He's just like Aunt Aiko. She was also this rebellious, just like my father said," the second ninja laughed.
"Don't get so tense, Kaida, right? I'm Shisui Uchiha, your cousin. Sorry for not finding you before, but I didn't even know you survived the attack. Otherwise, I would have co for you sooner," Shisui said. Removing his mask and showing his face for the first ti
"You, the Shisui, the Shisui of the Body Flicker Technique, right? Wow, I'm a huge fan! Can you please give your autograph?" Kaida said.
(Author's Note: Shisui Uchiha is a highly underrated character who possessed the strongest genjutsu and was a master of the Body Flicker Technique.)
Shisui and Kaida both beca a little awkward after that. Kaida quickly realized that he had talked like a fan because he was eting one of his favorite characters from the ani.
"I an, nice to et you," Kaida said, looking away.
"It's too late now to act cool, brat. By the way, my na is Saturo Uchiha, and I can give you my autograph, hahaha," Saturo said.
"I don't want it, sorry," Kaida said with a straight face.
"Hahaha, looks like you're not as famous as , Saturo," Shisui said.
Since they had to report to the elder in 30 minutes and only 10 minutes were remaining, the three of them decided to talk after the eting.
Kaida followed both of them to the elder's office.
"Good morning, elder," Kaida said.
"Good morning. I assu you know why I called you."
"I'm sorry to disappoint you, but no one told the reason," Kaida said with a straight face.
"It was because the reason was pretty obvious. You have awakened your Sharingan, so you are now a part of our clan. Pack your belongings and co live in this compound from tomorrow. Shisui will show you your house," the elder said, sure that no one would say no to this.
"I'm sorry to disappoint you once again, Elder, but my na is Kaida Senju, and I want to live with my friend where I'm living now."
"You have Sharingan from the Uchiha clan, and it is your responsibility to return the favor by living your life for the clan," the elder said with hints of anger in his voice.
"I think there's a misunderstanding. I have Sharingan because of my mother. And she was exiled from the clan by the ti she gave birth to . So, my Sharingan has nothing to do with a clan that left in an orphanage when I needed it. And now, when I don't need it, it ca to ask to perform my duties, which I'm sure I don't have any. Sorry, elder. I think you're talking to the wrong person."
This was the first ti soone had been this disrespectful toward him. No one usually asked him any questions and followed his orders, but there was a brat who had the audacity to not only go against his order but also raise his voice in front of him.
The elder activated his three-tomoe Sharingan and unleashed his chakra to put pressure on Kaida.
Kaida also activated his Sharingan and unleashed his chakra, though he was not able to compete against the chakra of an elder who had years to increase his chakra. At least he was able to resist the pressure of the chakra.
For a minute, they didn't say anything and looked at each other in the eyes. Though on the surface it may have looked like they were doing nothing, in reality, Kaida was constantly disrupting his chakra flow so that he would not fall under any genjutsu.
After a minute, the Elder spoke.
"Okay, I leave the decision to you, but rember if you don't take this chance now, you may regret this for your whole life."
"I'm completely sure about my decision, Elder. Thank you for eting ," Kaida said and went out of the office.
'That brat already has chakra reserves of a Jonin and is very near to upgrading his Sharingan too. He is too talented to leave behind. I have to talk with the clan leader about this.'
...
Kaida went out of the office only to find Shisui and Saturo waiting for him.
"So, are you moving in already?" Saturo asked.
"No, I'm sorry, but I won't co to live in the Uchiha compound," Kaida said.
"Told you," Shisui said, and Saturo took out a 2000 Ryo bill and gave it to Shisui. Kaida understood that they had placed a bet on whether he would co to the Uchiha compound or not.
"So, Kaida, do you have sothing to do? If not, we can go out to eat sothing. My treat," Shisui said while waving the 2000 Ryo note.
"I'm sorry, I've just eaten a soldier pill, so I'll continue to practice for now. But we can go out after I co back from my next mission," Kaida said.
"No problem, sorry we disturbed your training. Oh yes, if you have any questions related to Sharingan or any training in particular you want to ask, you can always co to ," Shisui said.
"Thank you very much," Kaida said, bowing.
"No need to be so formal. We're brothers after all." Shisui said
'Brothers huh!'
