Chapter 25: Chapter 25: My Tribute to You.
The cries and screams of the people of Pentos echoed in the distance, as the pillaging and killing were going on, near the docks some civilians and guards were fighting off these screamers to defend themselves and their families.
The boat slowly drifting into the port had caught the attention of the Dothraki stationed here, they started shouting words in their language.
I didn't care to translate it as I had no intention of listening to their squabbles, I only knew my home was on fire and these were the invading party.
"Get ready to take back our home. I will go ahead first." Steadily commanding.
As soon as the boat pulled closer to the port before officially landing to start the counter-attack, I leaped off.
My Sharingan took in all the faces of shock and anger from these Dothraki men.
Subtly landing on the ground I rush toward the first three horse riders in my way, my hands moved to my shurikens on my waist, throwing three of them instantly, the moment they landed into their heads, was the same moment I passed them.
This rabble was not worth my time, and I wanted to get back as soon as possible.
The Uchiha guards behind me also were swift, killing any extra Dothraki that started riding in from the surrounding streets, Yellow Bug stayed to command the rest of the Uchiha guards to make their way back to the estate, while Syrio Forel was closely following behind me.
I realized It would take too long on the street, from the people and enemies alike, I just left a faint voice as I started jumping and climbing to the roofs of the houses.
"Syrio, go back to Yellow Bug and make sure they get back safely, I will not accept any deaths to these barbaric scum."
I didn't believe Syrio wouldn't listen to me, he had sworn allegiance already and it was only natural to be a follower.
Getting onto the roof, I started moving towards the estate at a faster pace, jumping over streets and reaching the other end, I could see the chaos below, and the Dothraki sending more and more horses to the port.
At this rate, they would be overrun. My Sharingan pierces through the air toward my home, and I can see a defensive choke of my Uchiha guards blocking, my heart settles down.
'The worst hasn't happened' my uneasy heart relaxes.
With this new knowledge, I could still go forward and help defend, or go back to help Syrio and others get through. I believe they can do it, but at a cost, I do not want to have.
Clearing my mind, I jump down from the house right into the middle of a wide street, only thirty meters in front of me were around sixty Dothraki screamers charging. I will hold this ground while I await.
Looking at the first eight horses that fit together at the vanguard, as their eyes turn from the dark black to that of my Sharingan.
"Genjutsu: Sharingan" These horses braked instantly disrupting the charge, and flinging their riders right in front of me. Those following behind started to topple down, dust, horses and wailing were heard.
Casually killing the already broken and half-dead front riders, nearest to me, I rushed forward jumping over the first fallen horse, the confusion and fear in the Dothraki rider was left on his face, as I stabbed my tanto right into his chest, swiftly pulling it out, I continued to swing to the next fallen rider, this would continue for the next thirteen, before they started to stand up and regroup themselves.
I just took this time to catch my breath a little bit and refocus. I also wanted them to have a false sense of hope. I had no sympathy for these brutes, and I wanted to crush them.
Four of them ran at me first, before their companions could collect themselves and understand what was happening, watching these four attack me almost simultaneously I waited just when it was about to touch me, before I crouched, hearing the sounds of metal clashing each other, I look up, grabbing my kunai with my right hand from my left leg and swinging upwards while twirling. Cutting through the four necks. Walking past them before a drop of blood could be spilt onto me.
This effect worked wonders, as the other Dothraki men looked at me in fear. With a cruel smile, I crossed my arms in waiting, I did notice a man with a longer braid at the back of his head I didn't believe this was the Khal, so it had to be his bloodrider.
He looked around with his soldiers and looked at me, he still had a grinning smirk. Speaking in the same Dothraki language, my mind translated what he said.
"Get this little boy together, A pretty looking one, I can't wait to fuck his corpse."
I ignored his taunt, but his men didn't. They just screamed and attacked me,
I matched their movements with my own, my steps deliberate and just enough to dodge each attack smoothly as I kept myself holding this street and preventing them from passing. With each step I took, a body fell with a clean gash of a sword.
Since the Dothraki never wore armour my blade was cutting through them all easily.
Suddenly I caught ten of them had already knocked their bows and let go of the string,
Six arrows were shot at me, while the remaining four would miss.
All this happened while I was being stabbed from behind and slashed from my side. The dynamic effect made me understand what was happening around me, as time seemed to slow down.
First I turned my body sideways to dodge the attack from behind, as he missed me, his momentum now had his arm in the open.
Grabbing his wrist I pulled him in front of me, as he was shot by the six arrows, letting go he fell dead.
The slash that came to my side was blocked by my Tanto, He was looking at my eyes so I used Genjutsu again stunning him as I stabbed into his heart.
As more and more Dothraki came to attack me, I would just dodge and attack back, slowly the numbers were diminishing and soon there were only five left.
Just as I was fighting the remaining four, one of them quickly threw a dagger, forcing me to react instantly.
My body leaned back and I fell onto my hands, using one hand I twirled my body into kicking two Dothraki that were closest to me at their chin, breaking their jaws. Then using my hands to propel myself backwards.
As soon as I was about to land the bloodrider took advantage of this and attacked me, aiming where I would fall.
'Excellent battle judgement... but that's it.' I felt the difference in skill from this bloodrider compared to the others instantly from this attack.
Seeing his attack going to land on me, I throw my tanto to the ground first, the blade stabbing into the gravel.
As I landed on the hilt of the blade, the force of his swing, made my tanto break from the ground, making me do a backflip and finally land firmly in front of him.
I could see the sweat trailing off his forehead as he gulped.
With his fear-struck eyes, I just said in their language for the first time.
"Do you want to dance too?"
These words seemed to break his defence yelling in terror, his scream was cut short as I cut into his throat with my kunai.
Looking at the last four away from me, I go to grab four shurikens, but only two come to my hand.
The four of them looked at their dead bloodrider first, then each other and started to run the opposite way, I quickly threw the two shurikens with a backspin to let it curve, slicing through the left and right sides of the neck of the first two, the two shurikens keeping the spin meet in the middle colliding and shooting towards the final two piercing into the back of their skulls falling dead.
I finally take in this massacre, sixty men and some horse corpses from the bad fall had littered this street.
My breathing was a little faster, and the feeling of endurance of this body had reached its limit, but slowly I felt a sense of relaxation, as if my fatigue was being washed away. I realized what was happening.
The magic in my body was depleting but my body was feeling like it hadn't just fought, this was a great thing to know now.
Looking at my outfit which was still clean and untouched, my lips couldn't help but curl, my confidence was coming back.
Even with this ten-year-old body, as long as I am not facing those on the magic side, I won't easily get tired now.
I heard sounds behind me, my eyes peering through the fading fog and seeing the fanatical looks of my Uchiha guards.
I casually moved up to them and patted non-existent dust off of me, regrouping and leading the way back to the estate at a faster pace.
Our appearance seemed to become a beacon as scattered survivors who had lived and had hate in their hearts picked up the weapons of the fallen Dothraki and followed me and my troops slowly accumulating more as we marched towards my estate.
'Just like the coalition army in my last world, when there is a common enemy, people who may never want to get involved willingly will band together.' The scene overlooking tens of thousands of ninjas wearing the different uniforms of each village had me interested and a little bit started, but my resolve at that time was steeled and my grand plan was finally going to succeed.
'I wonder if that yellow-haired brat and Hashirama's goal succeeded in the end.' If I could I wouldn't mind going back if I succeeded in this world, just to see the outcome of that world.
With my magic now added to the equation, I feel like getting back to my heyday is entirely possible. With these new eyes, getting there is just a matter of time.
Finally arriving at the front of the estate, all I could see in the air was a huge smoke cloud.
A big fire was lit right before me, surrounded by Dothraki, there must have been at least several hundred of them, seeing us approach they ready themselves, and then I heard a loud and sonorous voice come from inside.
"Let their spokesman in" This language was said in Dothraki, as the guarding Dothraki moved out of the way.
"Lord Madara, let me do it." Yellow Bug first walked up to me
Before I could decline, Syrio also added
"Although I know you will be fine, I still worry, being surrounded like that will do us no good if you get caught off guard."
I only pondered for a moment, to show I listened, but still declined.
I would not cower against these men that tarnished my home, I will speak to this Khal myself.
I wish he would try something on me, so I can relive my glory days in that ninja war, that earlier fight was still not enough to get my blood pumping.
As I stepped into the inner circle the first thing I noticed was the fire, then around the fire were tied up frightened magisters from Pentos.
I know what they looked like from my earlier investigations.
Then on the other end, the Khal sitting on a chair seemingly taken from one of those magister's houses just cleaning off his crescent moon-shaped sword the "Arakh", around him stood five blood riders each holding onto girls in highly revealing clothes while drinking from a horn mug, some of the girls played around with the bloodriders, while the rest had dread on their face, there was even one struggling to get out of their arms as the bloodriders laughed.
"They sent in a child, do they look down on us or the Great Khal" one of the bloodriders mumbled before kicking a scrawny man who cowardly spoke in the common tongue.
"You are meeting the Great Khal Moro. You are to let down your arms and surrender everything to him, your valuables, your woman and children, and men to serve as slaves."
I didn't even bother to talk to this pathetic messenger. Speaking in the Dothraki tongue, I looked at this Khal Moro.
"I have come all this way from the port, slaughtering almost hundreds of your people..." he felt a little unfazed by this, so I finished "Including one of your bloodriders..." The last word got a reaction out of them, the Khal quickly recounted who was with him and then he got irritable, the other bloodriders were easier to get angry.
One of them even threw the girl on top of him to the ground and pulled out his Arakh looking like he wanted to attack me, but waited for his Khals order.
"I am saying that I came in here alone, not because you asked for a messenger, but because I am not afraid of you all attacking me. There will just be one less Great Khal in the World. With my power this is easy."
My childish voice got a laugh out of the Khal and Bloodriders. The initial bloodrider with his Arakh out put it down and grabbed a woman again.
"You a child did that? Then are my Dothrak just a bunch of sheep? And this power you speak of? Are you going to talk to us to death Kid? You are nothing but a mere child, I have killed countless.
My real power is the twenty thousand Dothraki riders outside of this broken city. With a single command, they will run down this city of pentos into the city of my Khal Moro." Khal Moro just laughed and mocked me.
The extreme unwillingness to show my glory for what I used to be, and the feeling of still being chained down by my limitations, having to be looked down upon for being a child, I couldn't accept this anymore.
I heard Khal Moro keep talking.
"We don't need to continue this boring talk, since those masters don't want to talk we will kill, rape, and take everything we want from here.
First I will have your limbs cut off as I make you watch us fuck that silver-haired princess we heard about." These words made my pupils shake a bit, the already unwillingness turned into resentment and anger.
I felt a little excited as well because subconsciously I knew what was going to happen, but then the melancholy of that I must bear such pain to get here just added more extreme emotions collecting together, trying to break that window paper of a film from Sharingan to Mangekyo.
Finally, after some more tormenting insults to my family, he completed his death sentence.
"she will be passed around and played with, men and horses alike. Then I will leave her to my horse as a broodmare, she will lay in torment for making me the Great Khal Moro wait." Khal Moro yelled aloud, riling up his Dothraki men who started to celebrate. As he signals his bloodrider to finally attack me.
Those words finally shattered my mind, these words of insults were so disgusting that I had never encountered them before, including all the past emotions until now finally broke out.
As the Arakh was soon about to reach me.
It stopped.
His blade couldnt go further as if touching an invisible wall. Panic struck his face, then slowly a white glow appeared where his sword hit.
A silver-white ribcage started to form. My Sharingan, spinning fast in a circular motion, the three tomoe turned into an extricate pattern, as blood streamed down from my eyes.
My hair started to flutter upwards, and so did the dust and gravel on the ground. A terrifying pressure was released from where I was standing.
"You know nothing of True Power. Now bear witness to your final extinction."
The Dothraki all around were panicked by this white giant skeleton appearing. The horses they were riding started jumping and flailing to escape.
The bloodrider who initially attacked wanted to escape but was splattered into the ground, turning into a pool of flesh and blood. As a giant white skeleton hand moved away.
"Khal Moro." my voice carried a new tranquillity, I knew at this moment the deciding factor in this world was now under my control. I was truly able to start my grand plan without a worry for my safety.
"For the sake of helping me awaken these eyes and not having to make a painful choice. I will give you a quick death."
"you... you... what are you? You demon!." Khal Moro could only stutter and speak incoherently.
"Yes. I will become the demon and nightmare of your Dothraki Tribe.
You wanted a tribute, I will give it to you.
One from my Uchiha Clan."
'Amaterasu.'
A black flame engulfed Khal Moro and his four other bloodriders, and then anywhere my eyes looked, a new black flame would appear on that Dothrakis person or horse alike, controlling the flames to not hit those girls who were being forced.
Even the fire and magisters were all burnt in this situation, I needed them dead for Illyrio to take over completely and become a complete ruler of this city. It will be a way back for the siblings as they march towards the Iron Throne.
A few seconds passed as the crowded field had only left those girls and one bloodrider shivering and wide-eyed in horror.
Only my Uchiha Guards I had brought and those civilians that followed all stared in awe were left.
The black flames disappeared as quickly as they came.
'My first eye ability is Amaterasu Flame and Control. The ultimate version of the initial Amaterasu Pair.' Worthy of being the Sages eyes.
"You." Looking down on this overly frightened bloodrider,
"I spared your life as you have some weight and would be able to lead those Dothraki camped outside of Pentos. Tell them to retreat to your Vaes Dothrak, and to never fight against my great Uchiha Clan again. Should you kill one member of my people I will slaughter a thousand of yours. Now go."
Watching him quickly get onto his feet grab a horse that was tied up farther away and gallop away.
After he left I cancelled my initial Susanoo, and I felt my head about to burst, I had over-depleted my magic, but I felt that my small pond had turned into a river greedily absorbing any magical properties available in the air.
Something I noticed keenly was my vision... It had gotten slightly worse, it was almost unnoticeable but since I knew what to expect I did notice it.
'I hope to evolve into the eternal soon enough.' With these new eyes, It will happen naturally, but I would need to find things of high magical properties to absorb or wait for a resurge of magical energy in the future, either one is a very small probability of me encountering.
I heard the sound of metal clanking, turning to look at Syrio Forel and Yellow Bug who had kneeled then Uchiha Guards who started to kneel and even saw the civilians start to kneel as well.
Marching was heard from a farther distance, and Viserys with Dany and everyone else led here.
Those final Uchiha guards who also followed them now started the kneeling process. Grey Worm and Missandei got onto their knees as well, their eyes were fanatical like everyone else.
Illyrio was on his knees too and trembling, I'm not sure if he was frightened, or that he could now become the sole governor of Pentos as our original deal ensued.
Finally, I looked at the two Targaryen siblings. Viserys was holding a valyrian steel sword, he was also in silvery armour, which looks visually pleasing. Like a fabled knight in those storybooks.
I saw him staring at me. In this tension-high mood, he took off his helmet, and held it in his arms, as he pierced his sword into the ground, and also knelt.
"I Viserys of House Targaryen Third of his name. Hereby proclaim Daemon Targaryen the new leader of House Targaryen and the rightful king to the Iron Throne and the Seven Kingdoms."
I could only smile at his thought. It was sloppy but I understood his intentions. I guess there was another brother-type figure I had a connection to again in this world.
Finally, I looked at Dany. She just stared at me with tender eyes, and I felt my heart melt. This sister... cousin... The cause of my awakening...
She then also performed a kneeling towards me with everyone else.
With her final kneel, I felt a mysterious feeling come to me, it was the same power I had when I was the god of the ninja world as the six paths.
'Divinity.' All these people believed in me, and I will not let them down. Blending my magic to touch it, I slowly tilted upwards towards the sky.
My gaze seemingly pierced from Essos to Westeros, following birds alike, images constantly impacting my brain, through a large wall. To winter cold ice-covered lands. Seeing several groups of people fighting and fleeing from the undead.
My Mangekyo eyes met with another cold and piercing light blue eyes full of frost and death.
I curled my lips into a smirk, and I noticed he did too.
My gaze finally goes back to normal at this moment, overlooking the kneeling crowd.
My eyes became firm and cold.
I knew I wouldn't stay here in Essos and my fight was down North. This only helped push my initial plan, just changed some initial developments.
"Get up, I accept your allegiance, now disperse and clean up the remaining of Pentos. Illyrio can you take control now with all the magisters dead?
"My Lord, I will need the support of your guards to achieve this easily."
I nod to Yellow Bug, who stands up and calls guards to follow Illyrio who stands up and starts rushing toward the magister's place.
"Dany, Viserys, Grey Worm, Missandei, and Syrio please meet me at the study later tonight when Illyrio gets back. I need to inform everyone of my plans from here on out. I will explain everything."
I don't look at anyone and just leave for my room, I need some rest.
