"AHAHA... catch me..." A toddler Shiroken ran around the village. Following behind him were Jin and Monari. They were surprisingly sweating heavily.

Although Shiroken had small legs, he was very fast somehow. One couldn't see how his legs were moving, as all they saw was a blur. ​​

"SLOW DOWN, Lord Shiro," Jin shouted. He was the worst of the three, because he was an ordinary human, while unknown to Monari, she was a Shinobi.

"Haha... Kurama... pick me..." Shiroken shouted as he reached the big red fox. Kurama obliged and lifted him in his hands.

From there, Shiroken jumped on Kurama's back and laid down, resting on the soft fur. It was his favourite bed. He looked down at his two friends, "Come up."

But Jin and Monari looked at Kurama in fear. As they knew, he gets angry so easily. Kurama rolled his eyes and just put them on his back. He was also resting anyway so it does not count as riding on his back.

The three sat together and started talking about senseless things. Monari was now 15, so to her, all their talks sounded too childish.

"Mon-Mon, show me that eye again. It's red, just like mine." Shiroken asked her.

She was tired of this. Ever since she had found out that she had some weird eyes called Sharingan, Shiroken demanded to see them every once in a while. She had no idea what these eyes did though, she could just see things better and slower.

"Okay, but my eyes hurt after I use them." She complained.

"I will help then," Shiroken assured her. He always uses his healing on her eyes to lessen the pain.

"Yes, they do hurt less now, so I guess I'm getting used to pain." She muttered.

*BAM*

"Awoo... Why did you do that?"

Jin all of a sudden slapped the back of her head. "No, you're not getting used to pain."

"You are so dumb, huh. Here, look at my eyes now." She huffed at Jin and activated her Sharingan.

Shiroken marvelled at how her normal eyes changed to this weird new pattern. There was a small black dot in the middle and then two dots around it.

"AH, they hurt now," Monari complained.

Shiroken quickly got close to her and put his hands on her eyes. His hands then started to shine in blue colour. Monari felt a cooling sensation in her eyes and all her pain slowly went away.

"Yes, I feel better now." She told him.

Satisfied, Shiroken moved back. But, then he loudly exclaimed, "WOAH! Mon-Mon, there is one more dot now. Three dots around the middle one."

Monari was shocked, but she had no idea what this meant. It had changed from one dot to two dots before too. "Maybe your healing is doing this to me."

"That's so pretty. I wish I had that. Mine only look red and plain." Shiroken said with a saddened tone.

"Huh, you can just take it. Find another Uchiha and take his eyes." Kurama spoke all of a sudden.

Shiroken crawled to Kurama's head and looked down from there at his face. Kurama's big eyes stared at his face.

"But that's bad, right? You shouldn't steal someone's things, eyes are too important for them, right?" He innocently asked.

Kurama scoffed and spat on a tree, drowning it in his saliva. But it was probably good for the tree, as his saliva was imbued with Chakra.

"Huh, who told you that? Boy, strong rule over the weak, and if you got no strength? It's better to shut up and run away. That's the rule of nature. Look at the sky, you see that small bird? That's food for bigger birds." Kurama said.

"But... Saiken said only bad people should be punished, good people should be left alone." Shiroken argued.

"Hah, Saiken is too soft in heart. Remember, Shiro. If you aren't ruthless, then someone more ruthless will stomp you down and take away what's yours. So you must make sure you are always the one to stomp on others, not the other way around." Kurama was giving a life lesson or something he considered good.

He had seen the world, the good, the bad and the ugly. Everything was present here, but he had learnt his lesson when he was small. And that lesson was that it's better to be bad and strong than good and weak.

"Uh-huh..." Shiroken hummed and returned to play with his friends.

...

Far away from the Jungle, Hashirama Clan camp.

"Lord Senju, I have sent 15 men into that jungle in the past 2 years, none of them returned, except one. He didn't see anything either and was just running away from the mission." A man with a spiral emblem in his armour spoke.

*Sigh*

"It was a worthless move, it seems. I should not have trusted the words of that masked man. I thank you, and the Uzumaki clan, for taking this mission. As promised, I will compensate you for the lives lost." Lord Senju, currently the highest-ranking member of the Senju clan, replied.

After that, the man from the Uzumaki clan left. As he left, another person entered the tent.

"Lord Tamura, I have brought news."

"Haha, Butsuma, come sit with me. It seems I am going senile with this crazed war, thinking about mysteries in the forests. How are your sons? I heard another one was just born? Haha, slow down, Butsuma, the burden of increasing our numbers is not on your shoulders alone." Lord Tamura Senju jokingly said.

"Please don't joke, Lord Tamura. You are not one to talk yourself, having your own 6 sons…" Butsuma replied.

"HAHA... I should have known you would say this. Tell me, what news did you bring?" Lord Tamura inquired.

"The Uchiha Clan is on the move, they are trying to take over villages and create a border. I'm afraid, they are trying to etch their boundaries and create their own kingdom." Butsuma answered him in a warning tone.

Lord Tamura's face turned grim, "They are becoming too impatient. Fine, I appoint you as the rear commander. You go take some men and remind them that this war is yet to conclude."

Butsuma bowed and left the tent. He immediately went to his own and found his oldest son Hashirama, who is ten years old, and his second son Tobirama, who is eight years old. They were practising throwing kunai.

"Follow me, it's time you learn the cruelty of war." He stoically ordered them and left the tent. Not even looking at his newly born 3rd son.

...

The same was at Uchiha village. As they also prepared for various wars with the Senju clan. But, surprisingly, they had also sent a few men to search the large mysterious forest after getting words from a masked man.

None of their men came back either. They guessed that all of them were probably murdered by the Senju. Now they were preparing for a payback.

...

Somewhere in the land always covered in mist.

This land was an island with the sea around it separating it from the mainland. The sea was also a natural defence, and the Shinobi living there developed their abilities to match their environment.

Not many people lived on the land, and the Shinobi were also much less numbered.

*BOOM*

At the outskirts of a Shinobi Village, a loud boom sounded. Something had fallen from the sky. When the Shinobi gathered there, all they saw was a large crater.

At the centre of it was a man. He had pure white skin that was even whiter than the people from the Yuki Clan. The man also had long white hair and three horns protruding out of his skull. Strange white eyes and a red tattoo were also on his face, along with some more jewellery on his body.

People wondered who or what this was. He did not look like a human to them. But the clothes showed he was one.

*FWOOSH*

A brave Shinobi jumped down into the crater and asked, "Who are you? How did you fall from the sky?"

The horned man seemed to be confused, looking at his hands. "It took me too much time to land on this planet."

"HEY, ARE YOU DEAF?"

Annoyed, the man suddenly caught the Shinobi by his face, "Tsk, pest. No matter which planet it is, there are always annoying ones like you. Rejoice, for I know how to deal with pests."

*BAM*

He closed his palm so strongly that the skull of the shinobi burst like a watermelon.

"Huh... spoiled my clothes?" He cursed and turned to look at all the people.

He spoke calmly, yet his voice resounded everywhere, "Listen to me, pests. Bring me your Lord. Until he's here, I will kill one of you each passing second."

As soon as he said that, he pointed his arm at a random person and blasted a small ball of white light from his palm.

*BOOM*

It completely passed through the body of the man, instantly killing him. But the energy ball travelled further and collided with the mountains blasting them into smithereens.

This was when everyone realised that this threat was real, and none of them could fight it.

"AAAA..." Chaos ensued as they started running away, not even realising their ordeal will not end unless their Lord is here.

*BOOM*

*BOOM*

With each passing second, a new person died, and a new blast resounded. Old, young, man, woman or children, it didn't matter as all were mercilessly being massacred.
