Chapter 5: Kenjutsu styles?

--POV Danzo--

It's finally time to meet Raiden for the first time since his birth.

Time sure has passed, he's now a one year old and apparently he's very interested in kenjutsu.

Specifically in Katanas.

In my opinion a ninjato or a short sword would be more efficient as you wouldn't need to put it in a seal and out, but it's still a decent weapon.

So before coming here I went to my root library and picked up two kenjutsu styles one of the styles is the Shimura Clan's personal Kenjutsu style while  the other style is from the now extinct Senju Clan from the warring era as a gift for him. I don't plan to make the boy to be spoiled but I don't want him to be a mindless solider either.

He needs to have the Battle IQ of a war veteran with the strength of an elite Jounin to guarantee his success.

So for the first four years of his life will be to improve his reaction speed, battle iq, the in and outs of village politics and money management. It's a hefty amount but because he has his chakra unlocked he should be maturing faster than a normal child after all.

Feeling the late night breeze on my skin, I open the door to the large house of 5 bedrooms. The place is located in the Clan district with multiple other Shimura houses close to it.

I could have visited him earlier but I've spent most of my time scheming against the Uchiha and spreading rumours about the demon vessel Naruto Namikaze's looks.

To gain the little ones favour I got a Chakra conducting katana as a gift, you would think the kenjutsu styles would be enough but a child wouldn't know their true value so bringing an actual katana would make the little guy easier to talk to.

--POV Raiden--

What a birthday it has been!

I've gotten my first form of training which I will need to exploit in the future to survive. Kakashi told me that physical exercise is crucial and is possible for me to do as I have already gotten my chakra unlocked.

Kakashi was kind enough to make me a little training routine I will follow that I will integrate in to my future learning.

Now sitting down in the living room re-reading a book about the Japanese language.

I'd say that I'm quite fluent now in speaking in Japanese and can focus on learning other things now.

While reading the book though I hear the entrance of the house opening.

'Is that grand-uncle?'

Standing up and putting my book on the table I start to make my way to the entrance to greet the "guest".

Going through the kitchen and into the big hallway I could see someone walking towards me that I now identify as Danzo Shimura.

'I'm a Shimura!'

The now identified man rocking a white kimono with a few bandages covering his right eye has black hair and almost as much chakra as Kakashi.

Breaking myself out of my stupor I start to sense 7 other chakra signatures hidden in the walls.

'This guy takes his safety seriously damn.' I say to myself

Danzo is a war veteran that can probably make a whole profile on my personality and skill set with just a few minutes of observation so I thought of a way to go under the radar in term of being too un-natural as I already am, and it's be always be honest and disguise my mood with something good.

I don't really have too many opinions of the guy but I can hide most of the things I want to by being excited to ask him if I'm able to leave the clan compound to explore as a good example of shifting my thinking when talking.

It's not like he's gonna ask me if I'm a reincarnate or something.

Walking up to the old cyclops in an excited way I started to greet him with a bow.

"Hello Granduncle!" I greet him with a cheery voice

"Hello Raiden I've heard some good things about you from Bird and Dog. Lets bring this conversation to the living room." Danzo says as he keeps walking towards the living room with me soon following after him

"I've been told you're interest in Katanas now."

"Yeah! I got a wood sword gift!"  I responded, opening the door to the living room for Danzo

Both of us entering the room we sit down crossing our legs.

"Because of your interest I've decided to bring you a gift." He says as he brings our three scrolls

You are reading story Naruto: Raiden Shimura at novel35.com

One scroll has weird writing on it while the other two have a symbol on them.

Danzo putting his hand on the left scroll uses chakra to unseal an item as a small white cloud. The small white cloud soon after its appearance starts to disappear as a clean Katana with a slick black and grey design appears.

Seeing my the Katana you could see a glint in my eyes.

'It looks so clean.' I internally screamed at myself seeing the cool blade.

"Is for me Granduncle?" I say clearly trying to calm my excitement down

"Just call me Ojiisan and yes this is for you, but on two certain condition" he says while putting the sword back into the scroll

Hearing this I sucked in my breath waiting for his answer.

"You must go by this schedule for 3 years and you can only use this katana when you master one of these kenjutsu scrolls." Danzo says as he hands me a schedule that I think I'll need to give to Bird when Danzo leaves

"That's a long time!" I respond as I can hear someone behind me facepalm

Now with the schedule in my hands I proceed to take a look.

()()()

{Schedule: Tuesday to Thursday for three years}

(7:30am-9:30am) Kenjutsu Practise and reaction speed training (Indefinite)

(11:00am-12:00am) Money management/Business skills (2 years)

(1:00pm-2:00pm) History and general information about the world (1 years)

(3:00pm-4:30pm) Shogi and Gomoku with Danzo/Kakashi/Rat (Indefinite)

(7:00-8:30pm) Chakra control exercises/ Physical Exercise (Indefinite)

()()()

Reading the whole schedule I started to get an excited look, of course for the Kenjutsu practise and Chakra control exercises.

'Damnit I can't escape maths and history no matter where I go huh?' I complain

"This sword won't be your only gift if you are able to get up to par to my expectations." He says making me guess he's trying to rope me in with gifts

Not likes I had any other option anyways, if I said no that would just be plain stupid anyways.

After accepting his deal he goes on to explain the two kenjutsu styles he brought for me which surprised me since I never actually thought of getting one.

The styles I got were the Shimura Style Swift Death Kenjutsu and the Senju Style Power Drift Kenjutsu.

The Shimura Swift Death kenjutsu in simple words was to with quick precision and knowing the human's basic weak points would swiftly strike an opponents vital spots while constantly on the move.

While the Senju Power Drift is more of a defensive style with counters which includes using the opponents momentum against them while using your own strength to be hard as tall as a mountain but flow like water when the time is right.

Quickly accepting all of the scrolls I proceed to ask a question plaguing my mind for a while now.

"Ojiisan can go outside?" I ask with an expectant look

Danzo calmly looks at me and replies.

"For now you can only visit the backyard and the garden in the Shimura compound but you will be able to go around the village when you hit the age of two with supervision of either Bird or Dog."

Hearing this I lose my expectant look but I at least know that I'm gonna be able to explore in a years time.

It's better than being a mindless Root shinobi so I can't really complain.

I have to make the most out of my training as this is a dangerous world after all.

I have to worry about Jounins and political enemies before world destroying aliens after all!
