ASFUCITWON Chapter 16: Clan Leader
🕑 Added 2024-11-06 13:18:19 +0000 UTCOn the sixth day since the holiday began, Reiji became increasingly focused on practicing how to make Explosive Paper.
However, today was different—Reiji was not just making ordinary explosive paper.
He began experimenting, creating a new variant that was more unique and dangerous.
Reiji replaced the Keyword [Fire] with [Water] in his Explosive Paper.
His mind was filled with curiosity: would this paper explode with a burst of water?
Reiji headed to the lake on the outskirts of the village, gazing at the calm surface of the water before channeling chakra into the Explosive Paper.
With bated breath, Reiji threw a Kunai into the sky.
A moment later, the paper exploded—but instead of a fiery blast, the explosion sent forth a large spray of water, creating waves that knocked everything around, including Reiji himself.
He was pushed backward, nearly falling, but his face quickly broke into a wide smile, a sign of satisfaction from a successful experiment.
Not content with just one success, Reiji became increasingly obsessed with trying new variants, triggering even more spectacular explosions.
Each blast created a commotion in the village, and soon, the attention of the Anbu was once again drawn to Reiji.
They emerged from the shadows, observing with suspicious gazes.
Reiji, who was starting to get used to their presence, turned and looked at them casually. "I'm just practicing," Reiji said in a light but confident tone.
"If you want to keep an eye on me, feel free."
The Anbu exchanged glances, surprised by Reiji's boldness.
Without much discussion, they decided to report all of this to the Head of the Uzumaki Clan.
...
...
...
Inside the main hall of the Uzumaki Clan residence, the Clan Leader was reviewing a stack of important documents when an Anbu suddenly appeared.
The man stopped, lifting his face with slightly raised eyebrows, signaling the Anbu to speak.
"Um... what is it?" the Head of the Uzumaki Clan asked calmly.
The man was slender yet muscular, with long red hair cascading over his shoulders and calm light blue eyes, reflecting the serenity of a wise leader.
The Anbu quickly reported, detailing every aspect of Reiji's wild experiments and the commotion caused by them.
The Clan Leader listened intently, his eyes narrowing as he processed the information.
After a moment of silence, he looked up and spoke in a deep tone.
The Clan Leader sighed slowly, his eyes staring blankly ahead as if digesting the report he had just heard.
"Is that boy trying to create a new Sealing Jutsu, rearranging the existing seals? With various strange experiments that successfully created water explosions instead of fire?" the man asked seriously, his gaze sharp.
"Yes, Clan Leader," the Anbu replied calmly, without expression.
The Clan Leader lowered his head for a moment, then glanced toward the door. "Call Karina here," said the Clan Leader.
"Understood, Sir." A soft voice came from behind the door. Shortly after, the door creaked open, and a little girl stepped in confidently.
The Clan Leader observed the girl's presence with a gentle look in his eyes, a thin smile gracing his usually calm face.
"Karina," the Clan Leader called in a loving fatherly tone. "Do you know a boy named Reiji?"
"Reiji?" Karina immediately furrowed her brows, her expression turning into a pout.
"Why is Dad asking about that boy? Did Reiji cause trouble again? If so, I’ll teach him a lesson later, hmmph!" Karina's face was filled with annoyance, and she crossed her arms, as if ready to confront Reiji.
The Clan Leader chuckled softly, somewhat amused by his daughter's reaction. "No, no, it's not like that. I just want to know your opinion. What do you think that boy is like?"
