Naruto- Secret Sage

Leaf festival



Leaf festival

The second day of the festival was to celebrate the present and still living shinobi of renown in the village. This day had plays of these shinobi's past exploits and a sort of tradition of giving the shinobi you look up to most a leaf. Secretly among those that got leaves a tally was held and the one with the most leaves got the title of Mr. or miss Leaf for the next year. Every year prior the leaves tended to go to the Third Hokage but now maybe someone else will get the title.-

Finally we have the third day were we celebrate the future of the village and make wishes for a positive rest of the year. Early in the morning of the first day of the festival I put on the blue Senju armor with the white furred neck my sensei gave me and used transformation jutsu to turn my appearance into that of the second Hokage. I accomplished this thanks to a photo of him that existed as well as the Hokage rock of his face next to his brothers.-

'A rather serious looking mug on this guy.' I thought as I looked at myself in the mirror.

"Are you ready Kenzo?" Karin asked as she walking in in a kimono with her hair styled up and with some makeup on.

"Hmm, I guess I am." i said with a deep voice that I thought fit the face since I wasn't sure how the guy actually sounded.

"I think you look better than this person, he looks mean." Karin commented honestly.

"Don't be rude, he deserves respect for all he did for the village even if you aren't wrong." I said and she thought about it for a moment and nodded in agreement.

The girl walked over to me and looped her arm through my own with a bright red face. "So what now?" she asked nervously.

"Up to you I suppose, this is my first time actually joining the festivities so I have no clue how this usually goes." I said not really bothered by her clinging onto me.

It seemed like a perfectly normal thing to do if we were going out to the festival together after all.

"Breakfast then a show?" she asked looking for approval.

I nodded "Sure, what are you feeling?" i asked and she thought about it for a minute.

"Pancakes with strawberries!" she said eagerly.

We left after that and walked through the village for a good spot to grab some pancakes with strawberries. As we passed the elderly folk of the village more than a few warmly greeted us with "Lord Second or Lady Mito." and I nodded back in acknowledgement. We eventually found a small street vendor selling mini pancakes and Karin was fine settling for that since the vendor had strawberries to go with them. I myself had blueberries with my pancakes and enjoyed the simple but delicious meal.-

"You really went all out huh Kenzo?" I heard a female voice say and saw my sensei walking up with a similar outfit to Karin but she hadn't changed her hair color to red.

"Tsunade, you look well." I spoke and watched her stiffen in shock for a moment before shaking her head to snap out of it and get a mad expression.

"That is a dirty trick Kenzo! How did you even get his voice right anyways?" she demanded.

"I used to speak with the Third about the Second and along with some other accounts took a guess at how he sounded, looks like I got close enough." I said and she shuddered.

"Not close, dead on. If I hadn't seen him buried myself I would have thought you him." she said honestly.

"Glad to know I got it right, it feels odd being in transformation like this. I so rarely need to resort to such limited trickery." I said honestly.

She shuddered again "Thank god that this is only for today. You have no idea how disconcerting this is for me." she said honestly.

I chuckled "I'm surprised you managed to get out of the office long enough to see this anyways." I teased and she groaned.

"Ugh, don't remind me! I can practically FEEL the paperwork accumulating every second I'm away but this is my first leaf festival in nearly a decade so I wasn't going to miss this for anything." she said casually.

We went our separate ways after that as my current transformed shape bothered the hell out of her and she wanted to wander in a different direction than us. We on the otherhand went looking for any plays currently going on and soon found one reenacting the legendary battle of the end where the first Hokage and Madara decided the fate of Konoha.-

Obviously there was a lot of dramatization involved and props as well but it was a fairly faithful retelling of the story from my own research on the subject. Karin was also enjoying the show greatly.

"That thousand handed wood thing was so cool!" she said with a excited smile after the play was over about a hour later.

"I was partial to the Susanoo personally but then again my chakra armor does take inspiration from it so I may be biased." I said with a smirk.

"Really!? I always thought you had came up with the idea from scratch!" She exclaimed and I laughed.

"No no, nothing so prodigious. The idea behind how a susanoo functioned just sounded like a good way for me to truly mimic my beasts is all and the rest as they say is history" I said honestly.

"I could never do something as hard as create a new jutsu like that." she said self depreciatively.

"And why not? Creating new jutsu hasn't always been done by geniuses like me you know. Through hard work and a bit of creativity a good amount of jutsu that we use today were made by people even less talented than you. Make no mistake however, you aren't talentless, far from it so the only thing stopping you is you." I said seriously.

"Huh? Your current face and voice make pep talks feel sort of inspiring actually, still prefer the normal you though." she said with a smile.
