Chapter 2 - the secret of the Kage Ken the Shijin-ken

The day after the Incident known as the Hyuga affair Kai arrived at the Senju Compound where he found Tenchi practicing the Kage-ken on a Training dummy, before he began to demonstrate some different techniques.

He assumed a forward horse stance with his hands held in dragon talon shapes. Before he stepped on a pedal and an egg was launched at him, Tenchi caught it before stepping on another pedal launching a second egg. As it came, he swiped his free hand while turning the hand he held the first egg in, and then with a slight pinch, cracked them as they fell into a bowl. Another pedal was pressed, and a large apple was launched. He uncurled his fingers, forming an Tiger hand shape, and slapped the fruit, slashing it into five pieces as they fell into the bowl. The next pedal lobbed a melon at him, and he quickly juggled it with a rising snake palm before jumping up and smacking it downward. He then stood there mixing the food before a stalk of bamboo—no, wait, sugarcane—came from the side, and he caught it with what appeared to be a side leg lock before smashing it with an elbow and finally tossing it in. Before the last piece to the dish, a sack of flour, was tossed at him, he skillfully grabbed the cord to the flour and pulled it right as it was about to hit him.

"Wow," said Kai.

"It's not polite to spy," said Tenchi.

"What was that? It was amazing," said Kai.

"That, my friend, was the very basics of the secret technique of Kage-Ken, the Shijin-ken," said Tenchi.

"You mean like the 5 heavenly animals?" asked Kai.

Indeed, now, as you are aware, there is a branch within the Kage-ken where five separate styles—the Seiryuu, which is based on Tai-chi and employs Chi-Na and makes use of water release; the Byakkoh, which is based in Bajiquan Makes use of Fa-Jin and utilizes Wind release Release, Suzaku, which is based on Northern Shaolin Kung Fu and makes use of Lightness and aerodynamic while also using Fire Release; Genbu, a style that is based on Hung-gar and makes use of Quigong and Earth Release; and Kohryuu, a style that is based on Kenpo and makes use of the Minds-eye and uses Lightning Release.

He then demonstrated some of the moves he was using The one he was using before was Genbu and it seemed to be his preferred style, Tenchi then demonstrated the other four forms to Kai. the Seiryuu was a very balanced style and seemed to rely on redirecting an opponents attack before waiting for the right time to strike then countering with an overt strike that cuts of their chi Flow to that area of the body, as he deflected the arms of an enemy from multiple directions before countering with a corkscrew palm to the solar plexus that releases a aqua vortex to the chest.

Byakkoh focused on intercepting an enemies attack within closed quarters countering their attack with your own attack and making use of your own brief momentum to strike an enemy down, Tenchi demonstrated by dodging an arm before lunging in and delivering a palm heel strike that released a jet blast of wind.

He then showed Kai the Suzaku swarming his opponent with a rush of punches and kicks before Performing an Aerodynamic leap into a rain of axe kicks to the joints of the enemies while release fire bursts.

Then Tenchi showed Kai the Genbu blocking almost every strike the dummy threw before countering with a Chi powered Beak fist to the throat then performing a double palm spike to the solar plexus powered by earth Release,

Finally he demonstrated Kohryuu as he stopped the enemies punch aimed at his head before he countered with an elbow to the Dummy's sternum before following with a back fist to the dummies forehead then performed a crouching double low kick before delivering a powerful lightning coated corkscrew roundhouse punch to the Dummy's solar plexus piercing through it.

" now before we begin, Put your chakra through this chakra Induction paper," Tenchi instructed Kai.

Kai did as he was asked and he focused his Chakra into the paper, To both of their surprise the Paper crumpled up, became cut in half and then became soaked.

" Wow, Kai you little twirp you have an affinity for Lightning, Wind, and Water release," said Tenchi grabbing Kai then smiling, " Kai Miboy this means you could possibly have the rare storm release bloodline," He said ecstatically

" I see, so now what?" Kai asked him.

" We will begin training you in the three forms Seiryuu, Byakkoh, and Kohryuu I will also teach you a little bit of the other two styles," Tenchi Told Him.

A few days later.

" System show status," said Kai.

Within the past two weeks my Taijutsu chakra molding, Stealth and proficiency with a sword have gained higher levels, also my status has increased by 10 points my chakra control and reserves have also increased by 20 points probably due to my training to master the Shijin-ken Styles Elemental Transformation Techniques as well as practicing the moves for the style, his sword proficiency has also increased since Kai's father decided to teach The God Speed Technique a while back.

-flashback no Jutsu-

"Seeing that your skill with a blade has reached the required level I've decided to teach you our family's secret Taijutsu, it's called God speed, By concentrating your chakra flow through your body, You can increase your speed by tenfold Moving so fast that even a Dōjutsu like the Sharingan and Byakugan can't keep track of you," said Iga.

He showed Kai as he moved instantly from one corner of the room with his hand on his hilt to the next as the sound of the sword as it clicked into place as the wooden plank in the center of the room split in half.

" Holy crap!" Kai said.

" This is the secret to using the legendary techniques of Hiten-Mitsurugi-Ryu," said Iga.

Kai Spent the next five days putting his body through grueling training to build up the strength to handle the recoil of God Speed.

- end flashback no Jutsu-

However the results of this training did pay off, after about a month had passed since he came to this world and Kai had already reached a high enough level to be capable of handling most Chūnin, Kai also helped Naruto learn the proper chakra control and even secretly taught Naruto how to use the Kage-bunshin-no-jutsu which would help Naruto learn faster Kai had also learned the technique but could only make half as many clones as Naruto which he could currently make about 500, still that's at least 250 clones each.

Naturally Naruto and I had grown closer I taught Naruto how to use a sword and in return he taught me his famous Enzui-giri Kick, after I had finished training I got a call from The Hokage.

A few moments later I stood before the Hokage.

" Tell me the truth Kai, It was you who killed the Kumo-nin, wasn't it," said Hiruzen.

I let out a low chuckle.

" Yeah, It was me, But I was in disguise so even then they couldn't trace me," said Kai.

Hiruzen puffed on his weed pipe.

" Very well, I must commend you for your efforts, Tell me something Kai, Why are you not scared of Naruto," asked Hiruzen.

" Some people may call him a demon, But he's a good person," said Kai.

Hiruzen let out a chuckle.

" You are wise beyond your years Kai, Tell me is there anything you may want I plan on rewarding you for your actions," he said.

" Well I would like it if you tested naruto's chakra affinity and maybe had someone teach him some proper Taijutsu other than what Tenchi is teaching him," I suggested.

" Hmm...I see, why are you so interested in Naruto," asked Hiruzen.

" He's the first person to show me kindness after joining the academy and he's my only male friend my age, Naturally I would want him to be able to defend himself and maybe have him learn what his chakra nature is," said Kai.

....

" I can arrange that, I'll have a proper Taijutsu instructor train Naruto, And hopefully he'll do good for the kid," said Hiruzen.

The next day.

Naruto was called to Hiruzen's Office where an elderly man stood with a slight hunch in his back. He has light blue eyes and tan skin. He has a spiky hair style, as well thick eyebrows and a mustache all white. He was wearing a long-sleeved black martial arts jumpsuit with a turtleneck, light-colored pants, and a pair of Tai Chi slippers. Despite his old age he carried the aura of a man who had seen a lifetime of battles.

" This man is your new taijutsu master Naruto, His name is Bang But you will refer to him as Master silver fang," said Hiruzen.

" Hmm, this kid shows promise, alright I'll train him," said Bang.

a few days had gone by and Naruto was beginning to develop his own understanding of Taijutsu, As a result Naruto learned Bang's two secret martial arts the Water-Streaming Rock-Smashing Fist, and the Exploding Heart release fist, although he only learned a little of the latter since it was a deadly technique and should only be used when in dire need.

Naruto still trained under Tenchi who taught him the secret techniques of the Kage-ken and the Byakkoh Shijin Ken, even taught him how to perform one of the secret wind release techniques, Fūton: Senpū Ken/ Whirlwind Fist, a powerful technique where the user generated a Massive Gale around their body and delivers a powerful punch that sends the flying several meters backwards.

" Judas Priest!" Kai Swore.

" It appears that Naruto-kun may Be A training Genius," said Bang.

" What's that mean?" Asked Naruto.

" It means you're an exception at Hard work and perfecting techniques," said Kai.

" Wait, So then does that mean I can be a great ninja," asked Naruto.

" With time and training," said Bang.

The two classes were in a joint sparring practice.

Kai was pit against Sasuke since the two had proven to be the best in their class, Kai would hold back against Sasuke making sure to only use some of the basics of the Kage-ken.

" Sasuke Uchiha Vs Kai Heishin," said Iruka.

Sasuke came at Kai with a back turn punch which, The former blocked the attack and countered with a solar plexus strike as he rammed his fist into Sasukè's Solar Plexus he pulled back and delivered a corkscrew roundhouse punch to Sasukè's jaw.

" Sasuke-Kun!" Cried Sasukè's Fan-Girls.

Sasuke came back with a spinning crescent kick into a spinning roundhouse kick before performing a rolling Axe kick.

Kai swayed out of the way and followed up with a combination of Back roundhouse kicks to the leg, knee, Hip, Ribs and to the neck before performing a Back wheel kick to Sasukè's Left jaw.

Sasukè began to loosen up assuming a boxing stance ready to attack Kai, Kai remembered something from his training with Tenchi.

" when your opponents shoulder moves, You see it, From there you attack in an indirect strike," said Tenchi.

Back to the present Sasuke attacked Kai with an attempt at a left hook only for Kai to intercept it with a back fist to Sasukè's temple before delivering a toe Kick to Sasukè's gut then delivering a scissor kick To his head.

Sasuke was on the ground now.

Kai backed off knowing he had to let Sasuke recover.

" Grr, I won't lose to a clanless punk," said Sasuke as he lunged at Kai with a combination of punches aimed at Kai's head, But Kai turned his head seeing Sasuke's punches as they came near him, Kai then attacked Sasuke with a Hiza-geri ti the last Uchiha's midsection before taking him down with a grapple into a slapping kick before letting go as Sasuke was dizzy Kai performed a heavy Chakra powered side kick to Sasukè's chest, " Rengoku-Geri/Purgatory Kick," he shouted and sent Sasukè Flying halfway across the yard.

Sasuke got angry and he came at me from above with an overhead crescent kick, only to be hit in the groin with a uppercut.

" Ooooh!" every boy Groaned as they clenched their legs and covered the crotch of their pants.

Sasukè passed out.

" Shōsha! Kai Heishin," said Iruka while raising his hand in Kai's Direction.

" That's dirty!" Screeched Sakura.

' HOLY CRAP!!! SHE'S NOISY; The anime doesn't do her justice for how loud that ear rape scream is,' I thought.

( I'm not bashing anyone this is just for comedic relief I'm not a mean person unless I'm irritated,)

" Sakura, there isn't any dirty move in a Real fight," said Yoshiko.

" But what if Sasuke got Hurt by that blow," said Ino.

" That's kinda the point of fighting," said Hidzumè with her usual Icy demeanor

Sasukè recovered but he had lost both the match and his pride, and not just because he had been bested by a nut shot, But also because this unknown scrub had actually bested him in a Taijutsu spar, despite being known as a Kenjutsu user.

" I thought you specialized In Kenjutsu!" Said Sasuke with a groan.

" Specialize doesn't mean It's the only thing I know, It just means it's Something I Accel in, just like how your clan access in Fire release, But can copy any technique and with enough training use that technique," Kai said while walking away.

" What's your name kid," he asked.

" Kai Heishin, The Heir of the Hiten-mitsurugi, and the future shadow monarch of the Hidden leaf village," said Kai as he walked towards his group.

The next spar was between Naruto Uzumaki and a girl named Yae Hazuki a ninja girl who specializes in Short swords and is trained in her family Taijutsu style of Hazuki Ryu Fighting Karate, she faced Naruto with the focus of beating him in a hand to hand combat fight, Sakura just Snickered, " Naruto can't even beat Sasuke so how can he best a girl," said Sakura.

" Yo Naruto, don't let that pink haired banshee screw around with your confidence, Just remember everything you've learned so far, Focus and find your center," I told Naruto.

Naruto nodded.

" Alright, enough of that, You two ready, Begin," Said Iruka.

Yae started strong by throwing a couple of linear thrusts before delivering a linear elbow thrust aimed at Naruto's solar plexus but Naruto stepped back at the last minute and delivered a Sokuto-Geri to the girls chin, knocking her back a couple feet, " Jodan-Rengoku-Geri/ High Level Purgatory Kick," It was Naruto's version of the Purgatory Kick, Unlike My kick which targets the chest his kick targets the chin and is more of a thrust kick rather than a side kick.

" What the hell, He's using the same move as Kai," said Sakura, " Sensei isn't that against the rules," she asked.

" Not really, Since Naruto-Kun and Kai-Kun study under the same Taijutsu master," said Yoshiko.

" And how do you know that?" Asked Ino.

" Because Their master is my father," said Yoshiko Clearly annoyed at the Fan-Girls attempt at Demonizing her cousin.

" But then why is Naruto learning The style," asked Sakura.

" Because he's my cousin, and The reason Kai is learning it is because he found a lost scroll on the art containing the Taijutsu's secrets," Yoshiko explained.

This caught everyone's surprise including Sasuke.

' wait, if Naruto's, a Cousin of Yoshiko Senju, that would make him basically a prince,' Iruka Thought.

Naruto and Yae continued their match this time Yae delivered a powerful step in double palm spike to the boy's chest, " take this Sou-Geki/Double Blow," said Yae Naruto was pushed back his chest aches from the power of the blow before Yae attempted a big sweeping Hook punch, " Dai-Sharin/ big wheel!" Yae shouted announcing her technique only for Naruto to stop it with a Forearm guard and to deliver a powerful side elbow strike to the girl's ribs, " Sekiko-Guren-Burai/Red Tiger Crimson Lotus Betrayal," said Naruto as his elbow to her ribs nearly shattered them,

Then Naruto stepped back and delivered a toe Kick to Her midsection before performing a double legged Backflip kick, " Kage-ken: Mukage-Kyaku/ No Shadow Legs," the attack was fast enough to knock Yae out.

" Sousha, Naruto Uzumaki!" Said Iruka.

I ran up to Naruto.

" We both proved them wrong Naruto, and you know what to do," Kai said.

" Oh, Hell yeah," said Naruto.

both of them turned to Sakura and ino, and Begin making pelvic thrusts while doing crotch chops this earned a snicker from the boys and girls in Kai's class even from Yoshiko and The two hyuga girls even though they weren't supposed to laugh at such a vulgar thing.

" Okay enough of that," said Iruka.

Later after the academy day ended.

" Say, Naruto, How about I teach you a Jutsu just for you," said Tenchi.

" Really a Jutsu just for me," asked Naruto.

" Yes, now watch closely," said Tenchi he then made a ram seal and created 10 shadow clones.

" Wow—is this the clone Jutsu?" Asked Naruto.

" Not quite, The Clone Jutsu is just an illusion, this right here, Is the Shadow Clone Jutsu," Tenchi explained, " these clones are physical duplicates created from a persons chakra divided," said Tenchi.

" Naruto nodded, Okay," he said crossing both the index and middle fingers of each hand what followed next was over 300 clones appearing before us fortunately we were in the private training ground of the Senju Compound.

I wooped before thinking to myself.

' System, How many clones should I be able to make,' I asked my system.

[ At your current level, You should be able to make approximately 50 shadow clones,] said the system.

I accidentally screamed the profane statement I was thinking.

" Well guess I should begin practicing once I'm alone," I said.

A few hours later.

I was panting while sweating profusely.

I had created up to ten shadow clones to study the secrets of the scrolls I had taken from the Konoha library.

Amongst the scrolls there were six unique Jutsu I had discovered, the first was lightning release: thunder God's aura, the second was fire release: burning blow, the third was wind release: cyclone straight, the fourth was water release: water dragon spiral, the fifth was earth Release: Stone Giant armor, and the seventh was a Special Chakra based Taijutsu called the Kamite Geki/ God Hand Blow, putting it simple it was a punch that was filled with half a user's chakra, naturally I had them practicing each technique which when they released caused me to suffer from chakra exhaustion fortunately it was no more than the experience of exhaustion from an extensive cardio workout.

After getting some chakra pills I was able to recover my strength and stamina and now I was feeling stronger and rejuvenated.

As I ended my training I returned home to find the Hokage waiting there for me.

" Well if it isn't little Kai-Kun?" Asked the elder Sarutobi, " I was hoping to ask you about something,"

To be continued.

Well now Kai might be in for a little trouble or maybe Kai is being rewarded for his bravery either way only one person knows what's going to happen to him, but either way Kai is in for a helluva adventure.

Anyway that's it for this chapter; see you next time.

Ciao.
