Shiro Yamaga (W.I.P.)

The two weeks passed and Shiro was ready to get the Byakugan as his own. He walked through the village streets to the Hospital where it would be done. Upon entering he told the nurse he was there for the transferring process and she pointed him down the hallway. Shiro turned and walked down the hallway for what seemed like forever until he reached a door marked with an “X”. He slowly opened the door and saw 3 men wearing white lab coats who motioned him to come in and sit on the operation table. When Shiro entered and sat down on the table, he was bound by chains to lay down. The next thing Shiro knew was that a scalpel was plunged underneath his eye and it was “scooped out”. It was unrealistic pain he was experiencing he thought as blood gushed out of the socket and onto his face. The scientist returned holding one of Damiyo's Byakugan eyes and placed it back into Shiro's eye socket. He was still experiencing pain as the eye made its way to reconnect with everything that was cut while removing the previous eye. Then the next thing Shiro knew, his other eye was undergoing the same pain as it was being “scooped” out and replaced by the Byakugan eye. When the transferring process was done, Shiro was drained of energy from the operation and fell asleep.

When Shiro awoke, he couldn't see because his face was wrapped with bandages, but did see a series of dots, that he would later learn to be, some Chakra Point System. The outline got closer and closer to him before slowly removing the bandages from his face. When the bandages were removed, Shiro could see that it was the Amekage. The Amekage had a nice sized smile on his face when he saw the faint outline of the Byakugan eyes in Shiro's. It was a successful operation, but the Amekage needed for Shiro to master his new power. He then told Shiro he was going on a trip to Konoha to train with the Hyuuga Clan to master his newfound abilities. Shiro agreed and was sent out on a trip to leave the village with the accompaniment of 3 ANBU members.

The trip was long and hard, but Shiro and the ANBU managed to get there. Once reaching the Konoha Entrance Gates, Shiro was passed off to members of the Konoha's ANBU. To Shiro, Konoha was too bright and dry for his own taste and everyone was friendly in a way. It was the exact opposite of what Amegakure was like. It took about 5 minutes until Shiro came across the Hyuuga Clan's Territory and then he was passed off to Hyuuga members for safe keeping. He was in the area for no more than 10 minutes before a man appeared before him. The man would be latter known to be Mao, and Shiro's next Sensei. Mao was the best when it came to training others to master their Byakugan and had even trained their current Clan Leader how to use his own. Shiro stood before the man with an emotionless expression on his face as Mao stared him down. Mao then snapped his fingers and a boy (around Shiro's age) walked towards him. Mao then stated that if Shiro wanted proper training then he would have to win in a spar with his star pupil. Shiro accepted and later that day, a spar was held.

At first, it seemed as if the boy would be a quick match since Shiro was trained to specialize in killing or seriously injuring someone for something he wants. When Mao yelled “Go”, Shiro ran at the boy and when in striking distance, punched him. The boy swiftly dodged the punch and shut down a chakra point in his arm. Shiro then tried to ball his hand into a fist, but he simply couldn't do it. The boy gave a smile as he then aimed to shut down the chakra point in his shoulder. When the boy hit him, Shiro rolled backwards and stood back up to his feet. He took out a kunai and threw it at the boy, but the boy blocked it with one hand. Shiro then took out a handful of kunais and threw them. The boy rapidly spun and deflected the kunais. This began to upset Shiro because if he went in close with the intention to hit him, then he would lose chakra points, but if he threw weapons, they would be deflected. Shiro shut his eyes and then he saw it again, Chakra Point Systems to everyone around him. He kept his eyes closed and focused in on his opponent. He could see the boy's chakra system clearly and this was how he was winning so far in the battle. Shiro then began to run at the boy and saw the boy channel chakra to his hands. Shiro did the same and as the boy raised his arm to puncture one of his chakra points, Shiro deflected the hit and hit the boy in his shoulder. He then spun on his foot and hit him in the other shoulder. He had shut down 2 chakra points in the boy's body and caused him to stumble backwards onto the ground. Shiro couldn't believe he had did it. Not only did he make the boy fall back, but he had won. Or so he thought. A girl ran through the crowd to the injured boy's side and helped him to his feet. They then took on a battle stance and used one of the Byakugan's most feared techniques, Eight Trigrams, 64 Palm Strikes. The technique happened so swiftly that not only did it catch Shiro off guard, but it also shut down all of his Chakra Points and left him on the ground unable to move. Mao then yelled “Done”. The boy and the girl walked off and Mao slowly made his way over to the very injured Shiro.

“Why did you do it Shiro?”

“I didn't feel like beating him to a pulp in front of you”

“Well everyone here noticed how much chakra you had stored up in your body...and just for that reason....you choosing to get the Byakugan was probably the best decision you could have made”

“Thanks so when do we start training this thing so I can go back home?”

“In the morning...should I have someone help you back to your room?”

“Nope because if I stay here...I can't be late for training”

Even though Shiro's face was in the ground, he knew that statement would make Mao smile. The next day, Shiro was feeling a lot better and was ready to train. For some reason, Mao decided to train Shiro with his other two students, the boy and girl from the previous day. Shiro later found out that they boy and girl were twins and that was why they managed to defeat him the previous day. Mao then directed everyone to begin Taijutsu training, followed by Chakra Control, followed by Strategical Training, and followed by a spar between Shiro, the boy, and the girl. That was the schedule for 4 years and when it was done, Shiro was a near master of Taijutsu and the Byakugan user.

When Shiro turned 11, the ANBU from Amegakure returned to pick him up. Before he left, Mao and him spoke on numerous topics and was given many words of advice. The ANBU members then told Shiro they had to leave due to the Amekage's orders. Shiro said good bye to Mao and his fellow teammates for the time being and began his trip back to Amegakure. The trip was long and it gave Shiro time to think about how he could use the Byakugan's abilities to his advantage. He then began to think about his time in the Hyuuga Clan, but his memories were cut short once a rain drop hit him on the head. That one rain drop brought back the memories of hatred and rebellion in his soul. It made him relive the times as a child that all his loved ones died or abandoned him. It made him feel angry and depressed once more.

When he had gotten to Amegakure's Entrance, the Amekage stood waiting on him. Before Shiro was allowed to step into the village once more, he was asked if he was still going to join the ANBU ranks. Without hesitation, Shiro agreed and a smile widened across the Amekage's face. He snapped his fingers and the ANBU members surrounding him put a bag over his head and took him to a remote location. When the ANBU had gotten there, they took off the bag so Shiro could see. He was in an empty, cold cell with a cold, steel bed. He felt as if he were in prison. He scanned the room and saw a letter. He read it and it told him he was about to undergo the most intense training any human should ever do. It said that it was so intense that half the people who performed it never survived the first part of training and only a hand full of the survivors made it into the ANBU ranks. It went on to say that while here you will lose your past self, but become a powerful and dangerous weapon. After reading the letter, a devilish grin came across his face and the door behind him opened. It had begun. His death training that would either make him or break him.

The training went on for 4 years until Shiro turned 15. He had achieved an entire new level of strength by undergoing the ANBU training. He had killed 1000+ people and mastered all of his basics throughout his training. He was the youngest and most dangerous of the new ANBU members that graduated. When they were sent back to Amegakure, they were required to wear a mask the trip there and report to the Amekage. When there, they were assigned an alias and given a custom mask to represent themselves. Shiro was given the alias of “Anger” and a blank mask with 2 long lines where the eyes would normally be and 1 short line where the mouth would be. It was very simple with the exception of the 8 Trigrams symbol on his forehead representing his ability to use Hyuuga techniques. Shiro was assigned to a 5 man ANBU squad consisting of 2 men named Clown (19) and Yen (20) and 2 women named Rabbit (19) and Miza (20). Shiro was assigned as the leader of the squad which he knew would upset the other members due to the fact he was the youngest.

A few months passed and Shiro ANBU squad was already climbing the well respect chain. They had already done 50+ missions as well as kill 1000+ people in them. It wouldn't be long before they were at the top of the ANBU squad list. The squad truly wanted to achieve the top spot, but Shiro just wanted to kill. The Amekage saw the progress the squad was doing in such short time and decided that he would host a competition to decided who the best ANBU squad was. When Shiro entered his squad, none of the other squads wanted to enter, except for the 3 squads ahead of them. The Amekage then said that the competition would be held in the upcoming month and told each squad to train hard. Clown, Yen, Rabbit, and Miza all went to train, but Shiro went to kill. He left the village to head to another Village to train, the Bloody Mist Village. When he left, his squad didn't worry if he would be “Ok”, they just worried if he would return in time.

A few days passed before Shiro got to the Hidden Mist and then he only had a few days to train before having to leave. He searched the Village for dangerous criminals that could serve as a possible training dummy and found one. His name was Juko and he terrorized the inhabitants of the northern border. He was also an A rank criminal in the Mist Village Bingo Book. Shiro then traveled to the uppermost part of the Village and searched for Juko. Well, Juko found him and decided to strike quietly, however, Shiro was a master of his Byakugan and instantly spotted him. As soon as the man swung at him, he turned and not only knocked out each chakra point, but hit them with such force that the organs they were tied around were severely damaged. He then stood Juko to his feet and pulled out a kunai and put it to his throat.

“Now Juko....if you cooperate you will only get shipped off to prison, but if you don't...you will just be another number to meet my killing quota”

Juko was terrified that someone so young could possibly kill him so easily. He nodded his head to cooperate and Shiro began to make his demands. Juko agreed to all of them except for the one about a certain man's location. Juko swore up and down that he had no idea who the man was, but Shiro knew that he was being lied to....and didn't like it. He knew that Juko knew about the man's whereabouts due to the fact he had done business with him in the few months earlier. He raised his kunai and slit his throat. He dragged his body down to the Mizukage's Office and collected the bounty on Juko's head. Once he was outside, he gave the money to a kid with ripped clothing in an alley. He knew the kid would need it more than he would ever need. He then headed for the Village Gates and for his way back home.

Shiro had returned to Amegakure in time for the ANBU squad competition and looked to see how much each of his squad members had improved. Clown, the Squad's Genjutsu Expert, had learn numerous A ranked Genjutsus as well as a few S ranked ones as well. Yen, the Squad's Kenjutsu Expert, had learned more weapon jutsus than one would think possible. Rabbit, the Squad's Strategical Expert, had managed to survive in numerous different conditions as well as situations. Finally, Miza, the Squad's Medical Ninja, had learned how to restore fatal wounds such as to the heart or brain as well as bring back someone from the dead. Shiro's position in the group was everything and whatever wasn't being done, but he did it well and he felt as his team was ready for a battle. As he gave a speech to his Squad on to not make him look bad, he received a letter from the Amekage requiring him to appear for a meeting.

When Shiro appeared at the Amekage's Office, he was handed a folder containing the numerous people he had either killed or severely injured in different villages. It seemed as if the Amekage didn't enjoy Shiro leaving to kill criminals in other villages. Shiro kept quiet as he was spoken to and waited until he was done talking before he made his way to the door. As he began to exit the Amekage lifted up a piece of paper.

“...and someone dropped this of for you”

Shiro went back and grabbed the paper before stepping out of the Amekage's Office to rejoin his squad. On the way, he opened the folded piece of paper and read it. It read;

“I said I'd come back for you”

Shiro thought about the letter before folding it up and putting it back into his pocket again. He was back around his squad and they each promised Shiro a victory. Shiro was pleased and he sat to watch the first round of the competition to begin. The first round consisted of one of the squad to assassinate the criminals and grab the Feudal Lord in the process and the squad that did it in the shortest amount of time would win. When Shiro turned to his squad, Rabbit began to come up with the plan. Everyone listened carefully as Shiro watched the other squads go. When their Squad was supposed to go, the plan rabbit came up with was perfect.

They stepped onto the field and about 25 criminals varying from B to S rank were between them and the dummy to represent a Feudal Lord. Then they heard the siren that meant for them to start. Clown began a long series of handsigns that would cover the entire field in darkness. Then Yen fired off numerous weapons from basic kunais to full sized swords. It was clear that most of the criminals were hit, but Shiro used his Byakugan to see through the darkness and saw that a few of the criminals were still alive. As the darkness faded, Shiro ran to the criminals that were still alive and killed them and at the same time, Miza and Rabbit were both behind the Feudal Lord dummy in an attempt to heal it.

The other squads and the Amekage were impressed with the performance. Not one of the criminals were alive, the dummy was healed, and it all happened within 25 seconds. They won the first round with ease. After elimination, one of the squads were eliminated and given the 4th best ANBU squad title. Then the second round began which required for the 3 squads to perform a game of “tag”, but it was much harder than that. The squad that was “it” would have to injure or “tag” members of the opposing squads. The squad that was “it” would be eliminated and to Shiro, it was more than a piece of pie, but then the Amekage said one more thing. The time limit was 5 minutes and the squad that was “it” was the last place squad of previous event. Once again this did not worry Shiro, but it did worry his Squad. He gave them each a brief talk and basically told them not to lose. The Amekage then rang a bell and the event started.

Without a second to be wasted, Shiro had already ran into the forest they were to play in. Clown had used a highly advanced Genjutsu to conceal his whereabouts, Yen used his Earth techniques to his advantage and hid underground, Rabbit came up with a plan for her and Miza to hide without being seen in which they hid within the stands with the audience. Shiro was the boldest of the Squad members and stood in the open clearing in the center of the forest for all to see. He had no attempts to hide because to him hiding was doing nothing, but prolonging defeat. As he stood in the middle of the clearing, the crowd became quiet and watched as Shiro stood motionlessly. Then before they could recall what had happened, Shiro had swiftly dodged something and a huge fire erupted encircling him and the 5 members of the other squad. Even though they were told not to remove their masks during the battle, Shiro did and tossed it away into the fire.

A few seconds went by without any noise in the arena and then it begun. An epic battle between a squad and a single man. At first it seemed as if the Squad was winning, but as the flames that encased them died down, the squad was laying there, dead. The bell rang signaling everyone to emerge from their hiding spots and return back to him. Shiro's squad knew that he was a dangerous man and knew that something had probably happened to the other squad. They were right because when they saw Shiro, he was putting on his charred ANBU mask that was burned heavily in the fire it was tossed into. The Amekage then began to read the rules to the final event, Death Matches. The sound brought delight to Shiro's mind as he continued to listen to the Kage's words. The Kage spoke of how each member from each Squad would fight against one member from the opposing Squad. The Amekage rang the bell and it was off.

The first to go was Clown, who was ready for the fight and had all his best Genjutsus ready to go. His opponent was ready as well, but he specialized in Summonings. This worried Clown slightly, but he eventually came over it and won. The crowd was amazed that the 18 year old ANBU member had that much skill. The next one up to fight was Rabbit, who had analyzed each of the squad members and came up with a plan to win with each of them. Her plan was ended when she found out that her opponent was a member of the Uchiha Clan and he used his famous Sharingan to his advantage to nearly kill her. He let her live only due to the fact he wasn't the type to kill with no reason. This angered Shiro slightly due to the fact she lost, but he was happy once more when Miza went out and left the opponent nearly dead. The last one to go was Yen and Shiro told him specifically not to lose. He agreed until he saw who his opponent was. A Legendary Weapon Master who wielded all types of powerful weapons that destroyed Yen's with ease. This angered Shiro again that his squad and the opposing squad were tied up. With two of his members alive and his other two on a death bed to recover, it was up to Shiro to get the win.

Shiro stepped into the arena and stared at his hooded opponent, the leader of the Legendary ANBU Squad, Legend. Shiro knew that the man before him gained the nickname and squad due to the fact of him being raised as an elite from birth. This didn't scare Shiro at all, but made him emotionless. Shiro was ready to be known throughout Amegakure as the strongest Shinobi it has to offer. The only problem was the man before him. When the bell rang, a powerful yet epic battle broke out. In the middle of the battle, Shiro ran at Legend and delivered a series of strikes to his chakra points. It seemed as if the battle was over, but he stood up and attacked Shiro. This began to let Shiro know that he wasn't up against the normal Shinobi. When Shiro attacked again, he sliced the robe and revealed that Legend was made of mostly wood and metal. This surprised everyone in the arena, but it only made sense to Shiro that someone could withstand all those hits to their chakra point system and still survive. Legend laugh when he was revealed and removed his mask as well. Only the right side of his face was the remains of his former human self. Legend then began to speak of his past and how he used to be a wonderful puppet master and then began to use human puppets and finally how he left his human body and transferred to a puppet one. The body was made of wood that would reflect chakra or anything that could surge through a metal, while the metal deflected Taijutsu and Weapons, and since he had no mind, he couldn't be caught in a Genjutsu. This worried people in the crowd on how Shiro would win, but he knew exactly how to win.

The fight went on an additional 15 minutes while Legend unleashed all of his puppet techniques. The techniques varied from numerous clones being summoned, to him switching to another puppet body, to him controlling Shiro's movements. It seemed hopeless for poor Shiro, but then Shiro surprised everyone. He had somehow managed to attack Legend while he was transferring bodies. As his soul was in the middle of transferring, Shiro noticed that he was converted into chakra and switched over to a chakra receiver in his other puppet bodies. In his transition, Shiro hit Legend and canceled his chakra flow and in turn caused him to die. All the puppet bodies that once stood tall and noble, crumbled to the earth and no one knew what had happened, but the Amekage knew. He knew Legend's only weakness and it was for that reason he wanted the Byakugan to stay in his Village in case Legend tried to take over. The crowd went wild to see that the young, yet dangerous ANBU member had won against an undefeated legend named, Legend. Shiro soon fainted and woke up at the Village Infirmary.
