Reborn in Naruto As Madara's Grandson

Chapter 14: My First Jutsu

I practiced the 'Leaf Concentration Exercise' until dinner time.

"Izuna!...Izuna. Come down to eat dinner. Mother has prepared your favorite dishes today."

"Yes, mother! I will be there soon."

Izuna stopped his training as he went downstairs. He went to the washroom and quickly washed himself up before he ate his dinner.

"Eat more Izuna! Today mother is proud of you. You even stunned the Hokage who praised you in front of the Clan head. I am very happy for you. Don't hesitate to tell mother, if you need anything from me."

Izuna nodded as he ate his dinner,

"Mother! Teach me Genjutsu techniques whenever you are free. I want to learn genjutsu from you."

Aiko smiled as she spoke,

"Silly child! You need to learn to have basic Chakra control before you can master even the simplest Genjutsu. Mother will help you train in Chakra control whenever you are done training with your father."

"Ok!"

I replied as I silently ate my food and thought about the Optical Illusion Jutsu.

'So, it all boils down to good Chakra control. Then, I will take one step at a time and master the basic Chakra control first.'

"Don't be upset Izuna. Father will teach you new cool jutsu tomorrow. Every Uchiha prides themselves on this technique as this marks the start of their Ninja carrier. The jutsu will be a surprise and you must wait until tomorrow to learn it."

'I will see who will surprise whom?'

"Will Shisui join us too?"

"Yes! He will be there to learn that jutsu too."

Now-now, don't be impatient and wait for tomorrow. Izuna hurriedly rushed ahead to sleep in the bed-room. He felt really tired after the Chakra awakening in the morning and 'Leaf Concentration Practice' in the evening.

Tomorrow will mark the day of the first display of his talents to the world. Izuna yawned as he laid on the bed.

In the morning at 7'o'clock,

I am standing in the backyard of my house. Father is standing in front of me with a Chakra paper in his hand.

"Ok! No one is observing you now. You can use the Chakra paper to check your Chakra Nature."

I tilted my head as I am surprised by the claim of my father.

"You can bluff Hokage and others, but you can't bluff me, your father. You were fine when you pretended to faint in the training ground. I was able to notice it in the first instant, but I played along."

Akira questionably looked at me as he inquired,

"So, tell me now what was it that made you pretend to faint. Don't lie to me as I would be able to detect it."

Akira activated his Sharingan as he looked at Izuna.

'Damn it, father! Is this a fucking FBI investigation. Why would you have to activate your Sharingan.'

I made a cute puppy face as I looked at my father with teary eyes. Akira's face flinched for a second before he retained his serious expression.

'Lies!... All of those were lies. What puppy face, what teary eyes? Even a grandma won't throw you a bone with such a face. Those novels and animes overrated this puppy face technique. Guess, I will have to figure out another way to convince my father. I will speak the truth with a bunch of lies mixed within.'

"Father! When I was in the training ground yesterday, I felt like someone was observing me very closely. So, I pretended to faint as I was really afraid."

I answered as I began to shed crocodile tears. My father took the bait as he consoled me.

"Don't worry Izuna, you weren't the only one who felt like that. I also felt like someone was spying on us yesterday, but I paid no heed to it yesterday as Hokage-Sama was present there. I assumed that the person was one of his men."

'Wow! Father had sharp senses. I beg to say even Hiruzen wasn't aware of Danzo's presence. But father was able to feel the spying eye of Danzo. Guess, he is Madara's son, he had talent but lacked the knowledge of his legacy until the death of Grandmother. So, there was no motivation for him to push forward. Madara was able to grow so powerful because he had a rival in the form of Hashirama Senju and those were Warring periods with constant wars and bloodshed. I will become my father's motivation and convince him to train harder.'

"Ok!...ok! enough of the chit-chat. Now test your Chakra Nature or we will be late for your jutsu training."

Akira took out the Chakra paper and handed it over to Izuna.

I grabbed the Chakra paper. To be honest, I was curious to see the reaction of Chakra Paper on contact with my Chakra.

I infused a little amount of Chakra in the Chakra paper. The Chakra paper disintegrated into nothingness, as not even a speck of its dust was left.

Akira was stunned, I was stunned too as I expected the Chakra paper to go bonkers with all kind of shit like fire, water, earth, lightning, wind, space, and all. But this, what the heck!

"Try again!... just try again! The previous Chakra paper might be a defective one."

Father took out another Chakra paper and handed it over to me. I tried to infuse Chakra again into the paper, but the result was the same. It disintegrated into nothingness.

"This this father what is my Chakra Nature."

I joked to hear the response of Father. Father muttered some incoherent words as he nodded to himself.

"Don't mention this event to anyone. When I mean anyone, not even Shisui, and your Uncle Yagami. Just tell others your Chakra affinities are the same as Shisui. Now, let's go to the Uchiha lake to practice your first jutsu.

'Ok! Now I am genuinely confused. What the heck! What kind of fantasies did father think of? I am curious to know about them.'

We arrived at the Uchiha lake, Uncle Yagami and Shisui were waiting for us.

"Why are you so late, nii-san? I have been waiting for you for a while now."

Shisui puffed up his cheeks as he angrily asked me.

I patted Shisui's head as I answered to him,

"I was late because my father was testing my Chakra Affinity."

"Hey! Nii-san what are your Chakra affinities? I want to know about them too."

"Oh! They are the same as yours. I also have Fire, lightning, wind, and Yin release. Ok, ok aren't you excited about your first jutsu."

"Yes, nii-san let's learn the Jutsu."

Uncle Yagami nodded to us as he approached the bank of Lake. He quickly made a few hand signs,

'Fire Style: Great Fireball Technique'

Uncle Yagami spewed a large fireball that burned for a while and evaporated lots of the lake's water. The fireball released was far smaller than then the one I saw during the confrontation with the Iwa Ninjas. I suppose he infused a lot less Chakra in the fireball.

Shisui gaped at the sight of fireball with twinkling eyes.

"I will try first. I have memorized the hand signs for the fireball."

I spoke after Uncle Yagami was done with the fireball jutsu. I went near the bank of the lake and weaved hand signs for jutsu in quick succession. Akira and Yagami were stunned by the fluidity of hand signs of Izuna. The movements were almost similar to those who had practiced the Jutsu a lot.

'Fire Style: Great Fireball Technique'

I spewed out a large fireball larger than that of Uncle Yagami's as I used one-tenth of my Chakra Reserves. The fireball extended till the end of the lake as it evaporated almost the entirety of the lake leaving only some water patches behind. Akira and Yagami were shocked to see the jutsu succeed and they congratulated me on success.

"Well done! Izuna you succeeded on your first try. Nobody was able to that in the Uchiha clan. Many people required at least a week of training before they could cast the fireball jutsu and your fireball was stronger than the average fireball."

I was happy for successfully casting my jutsu but was sad to see only an above-average fireball after exhausting one-tenth of my Chakra reserves.

'Wasteful! Too wasteful! My Chakra control is very poor. If my Chakra control was good, I could save up to 75% of Chakra in the previous jutsu.'

After this, I will ask Mom to train me in Chakra control. I came out of my thoughts as I looked in the direction of Shisui. Shisui went near the bank of the lake and slowly performed the hand seals. He gathered some chakra and released it.

'Fire Style: Great Fireball Technique'

A small ball of fire came out of his mouth which dissipated after traveling a little distance. Shisui was sad to see his small fireball as he complained,

"Why my fireball is so small? Whereas Izuna nii-san's fireball was many times bigger than mine."

Yagami consoled him, "Don't worry I am sure you would be able to do the same after a little practice."

Shisui nodded as he began to practice the fireball technique.

'Guess, geniuses have differences too. Itachi was able to perform the fireball on his first try. As for me, I am a cheat, not a genius.'

I shook my head as I approached my father,

"Father! Teach me shadow clone jutsu."

I spoke directly without any round-about manner. My father was surprised by my request as he questioned,

"Izuna! Shadow clone is a B-rank jutsu that can only be performed by having the Jounin level of Chakras. Although your Chakra Capacity is enough, the shadow clone has no practical battle applications. It is only good for scouting and reconnaissance, as it eliminates the risk of death at the cost of some Chakra. Shadow clone halves the user's Chakra thus preventing the user from performing any powerful ninjutsu. Are you sure you want to learn it?"

'Why would I not learn it? That's my ticket to dominating the plebs in the future, how could I not learn it.'

"Father! You know I have lots of Chakra. This jutsu won't harm me and will help with my Chakra control."

Akira thought for a while and nodded. He showed me the hand signs required for Shadow Clone and warned me to practice moderately.

"Yes, Father! I will keep that in mind."

I nodded to him as I began to practice. This will mark the beginning of my journey towards Great power as I will become op.
