Chapter 39 - Ch. 39

Chiba used every ounce of will power not frown at Orochimaru's spy animal and took Koizumi to Yakiniku Q in order to celebrate her graduation, sensing the tiny snake following them In the shadows.

As they sat down and cooked their meats, having small talk, Koizumi spoke.

"Brother, anko-chan said that she had to meet the person who created my sword technique after we had started sparring.....I was wondering if she could come over some time to me you."

"Sure, I'd love to meet your training partner." Chiba said casually, focusing more on Orochimaru than the conversation

"Great! I'll tell her to come over next week!" Koizumi said with a smile, not wanting her brother to realize she was trying to play match maker.

Expanding his Observation Haki to cover the entire village, Chiba saw the main body of Orochimaru was deep underground in a hidden base, dozens of fresh corpses in vats but he was not alone.

Laying on one of two operation tables, Chiba saw a familiar looking middle aged man wearing a bandage for an eye patch and he immediately recognized him as Danzo, but the person in the other operation table didn't look familiar.

Chiba witnessed as Orochimaru lifted a surgical blade upward, before accurately slicing off the arm of Danzo in one quick sloce! Orochimaru turned around and did the exact same to the unconscious man sitting i

On the table as Chiba started to realized who that man was.

'That has to be a clone of Hashirama! This must be when Danzo obtains his new arm and already plans on killing the Uchiha clan for our eyes!'

Seeing the cloned body of Hashirama, Chiba felt the desire to rush in and steal the body but managed to control himself.

The Hashirama clone was in his late twenties and Chiba was just seven, making organ or limb transplant impossible because big the size difference.

'Once again my age and body are the only limiting factor that prevents me from becoming an unrivaled powerhouse' Chiba gritted his teeth in annoyance watching Orochimaru's shadow clone disguised as a snake.

Despite feeling this way Chiba was subconsciously glad that the Hashirama body was too large for him to transplant his limbs.

Chiba was in desperate need of chakra and Hashirama cells would solve that problem immediately so he'd do the limb transplants without hesitation, but that would just another power up he didn't earn.

Chiba wanted to feel pride about his abilities, and having a system that just gave him the most powerful abilities in this world didn't grant him any pride, if anything, it made him guilty and shameful.

Chiba imagined all of the Shinobi that he killed and how hard they trained their bodies and jutsu just to survive the war, only for a child that was given overpowered abilities by working out decently hard for an hour everyday.

This was part of the reason that Chiba preferred to use his sword in battle, while his swordmanship was also a skill that was granted to him, his experience and training with it had grown the skill beyond the rank that it was given and the White fang Sakumo's sword technique revolutionized It.

If Chiba had to guess, his swordsmanship should be at master rank thanks to what he learned coupled with the templates ability! When he used his sword on the battlefield, he felt no shame or guilt when he killed unlike when he used his gravity fruit.

Thinking of the current situation, Chiba knew this would eventually happen as his observation Haki picked up the malice and greed Orochimaru had when he look at him, but he expected that he had more time.

Chiba was robotically cooking his meat and replying to Koizumi in short sentence.

'Orochimaru is hiding his forbidden expirements from the eyes of the Konoha military police because of Danzos influence, allowing him to kill others and experiment in peace. Meanwhile Danzo continues to grow stronger and stronger because of Orochimaru! I can't allow this to continue!'

As Chiba was focusing on Orochimaru, the piece of meat was burnt to a crisp as he felt Koizumi tugging on his arms.

"Bro, you've burn the me-" "Koizumi listen to me, I want you to go to this address and stay with the woman there. She'll be confused but just say that your my sister and hand her this note." Taking out a piece of paper, Chiba quickly wrote down a message for his Fuinjutsu sensei, Kushina, and handed it to Koizumi.

His sister looked at him for a second before wordlessly nodding and running away, causing a sense of pride to well within Chiba.

'She didn't ask for any unnecessary details, complain or question me, she is growing into a fine Shinobi before my eyes....With what I'm about to do, i don't know if village is going to remain unscathed.' paying for their meal, Chiba started walking back to the clan, this time not relying on his cane to guide him.

Walking over to the clan Patriarchs house, Chiba knocked on the door only for Itachi to open the door.

"Chiba? What are you doing here?" Through his observation Haki, Chiba realized that Itachi only had 1/3 of his chakra and was covered in cuts meaning he just came back from a mission.

"I need to speak with your father immediately, it revolves heavily around the safety of the village." the deadly serious tone and shocked Itachi slightly as he'd never seen his friend this serious.

Without hesitation, Itachi let him in as Chiba sped walked through his house and to the patriarchs door. Without knocking, Chiba opened the door to the office and received a look of anger from two of the clan elders who were in a heated discussion with the patriarch. Chiba immediately got on one knee before his Patriarch.

"An impudent child dared to disruo-" "SILENCE! Chiba, speak." Fugaku's overbearing voiced cut off the elder.

The old elder was an Uchiha member that had fought in the warring states period and went their to persuade the clan Patriarch to do something about the injustice their clan is facing, but he'd never felt so insulted and had his pride tarnished by being yelled at by a man half his age! The elder Uchiha face was was red hot in anger.

"Patriarch, please send a squad of our strongest military police with me on a domestic mission immediately! I have found the secret hideout of an enemy of both the village and the Uchiha, they've killed multiple Shinobi from every clans in the village and experiment on their corpse! This includes Uchiha members who have awakened their Sharingan!"

The look of anger faded for the two elders face's as they realized the importance of what the boy had just said, only for them to feel all of the hairs stand on end.

"WHO IS DOING THIS...." The patriarch voice was a barely contained rages as his chakra leaked out of his body and into the room.

"Orochimaru!"
