Naruto: About the Fact That my Brother is Madara

Read 20+ Chapter's Ahead in Patreon

Time is like a cheap prostitute—passionate on the surface, yet cold and ruthless the moment the money changes hands and the act is done.

Lingering affection, on the other hand, resembles a lowly client. It appears sincere and eager, yet beneath the surface, it hides nothing but selfish intent, seeking to exploit without bearing the cost.

Whether one wishes it or not, time always slips by silently and swiftly, vanishing in the blink of an eye.

Unknowingly, five years had passed since Kyōsuke and his family became stranded on the moon.

He, who was once a naive seven- or eight-year-old boy, had grown into a 21-year-old young man—someone with a home to protect and responsibilities to shoulder.

By the standards of the Shinobi world, this age was considered the prime of adulthood in his previous life.

Within a secluded training ground lined with countless cherry blossoms, cold winds carried pink petals across the lush green grass. Amidst this serene beauty, the crisp, resonant clash of blades broke the silence as several figures darted across the field.

At the center of the skirmish stood a man. His features, delicate yet resolute, were framed by a sharp, unwavering gaze. Beneath the folds of his black robe lay a muscular physique, brimming with raw power—a striking contrast to the tranquility surrounding him.

Majestic and domineering, every movement he made exuded an oppressive aura that demanded submission.

The Kusanagi sword spun in his hands, its gleaming edge reflecting the soft glow of the cherry blossoms. Kyōsuke's focus was absolute, his composure unshaken as he countered the relentless attacks of seven shadow clones encircling him.

At his current level of strength, few individuals could match him in battle, let alone serve as worthy sparring partners. To hone his skills, he had no choice but to rely on his own shadow clones.

At the moment, the seven shadow clones moved with precision, adopting a hit-and-run strategy to overwhelm him. Every time one attacked, two others flanked him, ensuring he couldn't isolate and eliminate them one by one.

What made this sparring session truly unique was their mastery of chakra nature transformation. Each clone specialized in a single chakra nature, turning the session into a symphony of elemental power.

For example, one clone charged forward, its blade engulfed in roaring flames.

Another wielded a lightning-infused weapon, its strikes crackling with energy. From the side, a third clone swung a wind-enhanced blade, its edge sharp enough to rival the peak of a Chidori blade.

In the rear, a clone armed with a water blade waited for an opening, its fluid movements mirroring the ebb and flow of the tide. Beside it, a figure with fists encased in solid rock charged with brute force, each step shaking the ground beneath them.

"Five years…" Kyōsuke muttered under his breath, his voice calm as he dodged and parried with seemingly effortless precision. Despite their coordination, his shadow clones remained leagues behind his true self in strength.

To make the training meaningful, he deliberately restrained his power, limiting his speed and strength to challenge his techniques and reflexes.

Over the past five years, aside from unraveling the secrets of space-time barriers under Kaguya's guidance, Kyōsuke had dedicated himself to mastering chakra nature transformation.

Progress through the first six levels of mastery had come relatively easily, but now, every step forward required exponentially greater time, effort, and precision.

◇◆────────────────◆◇

Chakra Nature Transformations:

Fire: Level 8

Water: Level 7

Lightning: Level 9

Wind: Level 7

Earth: Level 7

Yin: Level 7

Yang: Level 7

◇◆────────────────◆◇

Aside from his most frequently used Lightning Release, the other chakra natures had only recently reached Level 7, granting him the ability to experiment with combining them to create new and unique Kekkei Genkai techniques.

However, this was merely the beginning of a long and arduous journey. While the potential for innovation was vast, Kyōsuke's attention was focused elsewhere.

He sought something far greater—mystical abilities that transcended the limits of ordinary Kekkei Genkai, powers that defied the conventions of the Shinobi world and touched upon the realm of the divine.

Clapping his hands together, Kyōsuke merged the seven chakra natures into one. The fusion triggered a peculiar transformation, giving birth to a pitch-black sphere that hovered ominously behind him.

The moment the shadow clones sensed the anomaly, they instinctively tried to retreat. But it was too late. In a flash, the black sphere splintered into a barrage of arrows, each one striking its target with unerring precision.

In just two seconds, all seven clones were obliterated simultaneously. Such was the devastating power of the Truth-Seeking Orbs.

A satisfied smile began to form on Kyōsuke's face—until it froze. Without warning, the Truth-Seeking Orb self-destructed in midair.

BOOM!

The shockwave rippled across the training ground, scattering cherry blossom petals into the wind. Kyōsuke sighed inwardly.

There was no helping it—his progress was still incomplete. At his current level, he could barely summon a single Truth-Seeking Orb, and even that required his full strength.

When his other chakra natures advanced to Level 9, he would be able to summon more orbs. Yet, their duration would remain fleeting, a temporary manifestation of his growing but imperfect control.

To wield Truth-Seeking Orbs perpetually, with them floating at will behind him, all seven chakra natures would need to reach Level 10—the MAX level.

Across the entire shinobi world, no one had managed to fully develop even a single chakra nature to MAX level. Such a feat was reserved for entities like Black Zetsu, whose power defied mortal limits.

Achieving MAX in all seven natures? The mere thought was daunting, an insurmountable challenge for any ordinary shinobi.

Yet, Kyōsuke was no ordinary shinobi.

With the shadow clone training method, combined with his Sage Body's regenerative capabilities to endure the strain and accumulate experience. Without these advantages, reaching his current level would have taken decades, if not an entire lifetime.

---

"The enhancements from an Intermediate-level Sage Body are ultimately insufficient to rival Jinchūriki of tailed beasts," Kyōsuke murmured, his gaze sharp with thought.

"To summon hundreds of shadow clones for simultaneous training, I need to break past my current limits. Only with a higher-level Sage Body can my chakra reserves reach the pinnacle of super-Kage-level strength."

With that in mind, Kyōsuke opened his system menu and reviewed his current stats.

◇◆────────────────◆◇

Name: Uchiha Kyōsuke

Age: 21

Physical Strength: Super Kage (Low-tier)

Mental Strength: Super Kage (Low-tier)

Chakra Reserves: Super Kage (Mid-tier)

Abilities Mastered: Various (omitted)

Kekkei Genkai: Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan, Sage Body (Intermediate-level)

Chakra Nature Transformations: Fire (Level 8), Water (Level 7), Lightning (Level 9), Wind (Level 7), Earth (Level 7), Yin (Level 7), Yang (Level 7)

Ninja Tools: Kusanagi Sword, Yata Mirror

Points: 85,100

◇◆────────────────◆◇

Over five years of relentless growth, Kyōsuke had unlocked the full potential of his Intermediate-level Sage Body.

Even without relying on his Perfect Susanoo or Sage Mode, he was already a true super-Kage-level powerhouse—an existence few could hope to challenge.

Yet, Kyōsuke knew this was far from enough.

His future training hinged on advancing his chakra natures to MAX level. For that, he needed the unparalleled chakra reserves and regenerative capabilities offered by an Advanced-level Sage Body.

Such a breakthrough would not only allow him to wield the Truth-Seeking Orbs at will but also significantly accelerate his progress toward awakening the Rinnegan.

The benefits were undeniable. A conservative estimate suggested an Advanced-level Sage Body could save him at least thirty years of effort, making it a worthy investment.

Of course, it came with a steep price—100,000 points, not a single point less.

Kyōsuke's current balance stood at 85,100 points, painstakingly accumulated over years by wiping out the remnants of the Tsukigakure Clan. Despite his efforts, the gap remained. Unless he turned his blade against his own people—a thought he immediately dismissed—there was little hope of earning more points anytime soon.

His only remaining option for returning to Earth lay in mastering the intricacies of space-time barriers, a task he estimated would require at least three to four more years of training. By the time he succeeded, the Warring States Period might already be over.

The thought brought a sigh of resignation to his lips. He had the power to move mountains, yet fate demanded patience. For now, all he could do was wait, train, and prepare for the world that awaited his return.

As a gentle breeze stirred the cherry blossoms, their petals danced gracefully through the air, painting the garden in soft hues of pink.

Hidden among the shadows, a small figure lingered, its gaze locked on the man standing amidst the serene beauty.

Kyōsuke, head bowed in thought, seemed lost in his own world, a faint sigh escaping his lips.

Sensing an opportunity, the hidden figure crept closer, its movements clumsy and unrefined—like a fledgling bird testing its wings for the first time.

"Take this!"

The cry shattered the garden's tranquility as the small figure leapt from its crouched position, launching a spirited, if poorly timed, attack.

Kyōsuke, unfazed, found the attempt almost endearing. With a slight tilt of his body, he effortlessly evaded the clumsy pounce.

His lips curved into a faint smile as he extended two fingers, catching the child's collar before the boy could crash to the ground.

"Haruto," Kyōsuke said, his tone laced with amusement, "how many times have I told you not to shout during an ambush?"
