__________ POV Narration __________ A few more days passed before the finals of the Chunin Exams started for good. The arena was just the same, but tensions were quite high. The first fight was not quite as difficult to predict in the eyes of the people, however. The Number 1 and 2 in the Dark Brotherhood had to stand off against each other. It was clear that the one ranked higher would win, right? But where the question truly stood was whether or not Uzumaki Takehiko really had it in him to defeat…

__________ POV Narration __________ Ume dragged herself out of the arena, a disappointed look in her eyes as she gave her father one last look before finally leaving. It was clear that she needed someone to talk to, so the Blind Swordsman finally stood up. '... Comforting people has never been my strong point.' Throughout both of his lives, he had not been put in that position many times. His family seemed to be able to take him out of his comfort zone and broaden his horizons quite often. Hell,…

_________ POV Narration_________ "So it's just that? That was the plan? To overwhelm the Uzumaki brat with Nature Energy-enhanced jutsu?" The Raikage's question seemed to resonate with the other leaders as well, as they all looked at Ken for answers. "Well, I'd say it's better for you to turn your gazes back to the arena... Just using Nature Energy regularly won't win the fight in this case, so my pupil will have to get creative." Enhancing an attack with Nature Energy was never going to be a big…

_________ POV Narration _________ 'Ok, no reason to get psyched out now, Ume... You've got this!' The little girl thought to herself as she walked forward into the arena. Even among her peers she was exceptional, possessing a talent and will that allowed her to be sent into supervised missions earlier than others. Her overwhelming talent with Sage Mode and the ease with which she mastered it also made Ken trust her to take care of herself regardless of the situation. At the end of the day, most of…

________ POV Narration ________ 'She can unleash all of her Tailed Beast's chakra without transforming into it?' Ken observed the young Jinchuriki with a surprised smile underneath his mask. He hadn't quite met a Jinchuriki able to take on such a form, he also clearly felt that the Tailed Beast had given all of its charka to Yugito. 'Is this what a full partnership looks like? But, if I remember correctly, Killer B was also a perfect Jinchuriki...' The Blind Assassin couldn't quite put his finger on…

_________ POV Narration _________ 'How will you respond to that, Tatsukio?' Ken's senses focused on his star pupil, tracking him around the arena as he danced around the dangerous winds, sweat dripping from every pore in his body. Even though Tatsukio was strong, he was now dealing with an attack that may as well have been dished out by a Kage. An S-Rank Jutsu powered by the chakra of a Tailed Beast was not something that anyone would take on easily, it would even be annoying to deal with for some of…

_________ POV Narration _________ Countless voices and cheers bled together as the arena started filling with people of all backgrounds, all potential investors taking an interest in the youth of the Hidden Villages. The Chunin Exams were not just a chance for the children in the Hidden Villages to rise up the ranks and gain more benefits. The final stage of the exam was always a vehicle for said Hidden Villages to showcase their power and flex on competition. It was always good to showcase their…

_________ POV Narration_________ "So... What exactly are these cells?" Ken's voice was laced with curiosity as he walked over to one of the shelves and took one of the jars in his hand. He couldn't completely feel the shape within that jar, not that he was trying all that much, but he could tell that it had those special cancerous cells within it. "These, Lord Ken, are what I refer to as 'Hashirama Cells'. These are extracted samples of DNA from the First Hokage, the first God of Shinobi, all grown…

_________ POV Ken _________ It has certainly been a while since Ume has become one of my personal pupils. In all honesty, all children of the Brotherhood are my personal pupils, they are all learning techniques that I either created or perfected. But she is one of the few that I have been teaching personally for a while. Her talent for Senjutsu can only really be described as monstrous, aside from me there is no one in the Brotherhood able to match her in that aspect. But she is still too green to…

__________ POV Narration __________ "What exactly do you think you are doing, Takehiko?" Yorihikko, the Leader of the Uzumaki started speaking as soon as he pulled his disciples out of the room. He clapped once, signalling all nearby Anbu and Shinobi to screw off for a few moments. The young Uzumaki prodigy noticed that and immediately became uneasy as if his mentor clasping his mouth shut and pulling him away from the field wasn't enough of a sign that he had screwed up massively. Still, he didn't…
