Chapter 5: New Home
Land of Fire
An unknown forest
Inside the forest there were tents everywhere and people with orange hair patrolling the area probably checking if there were any danger.
Inside a particularly big tent you will see a man probably around 21-22 years old sleeping soundly on the floor the young man also had orange hair just like the people patrolling outside but the thing that makes him stands out the most is the flame tattoo that's on both of his hands
A few seconds later there was movement coming from the young man as he finally open his eyes revealing his deep green eyes that stared at everything thing around him in surprise, confusion then understanding right before he summoned all his strength to sit down upright
"Hmm… I guess this should be the tattoo that appears when you awaking the bloodline limit" Robert now named Akio says as he stares as the blood red flame tattoo on his arms while also checking the state of his body while memories of the past 23 years flooded into his brain
"My body is still a little bit weak but with a little of exercise I should be able to get it back to shape…there's a weird thing in the middle of my stomach that's flowing in my body, this should be chakra but is mine supposed to be this big!!" Akio says in shock as he feels the large amount of Chakra flowing in his body
"Well at least it makes sense now how I transferred my blood to 75 people and recovered in just five years. I guess chakra also affects the rate the body heals so since I already have Kage level chakra I was able to recover in just 5 years" Akio theorizes as he figures out the reason due to his genius trait
"Oh clan head your awake" a voice says with a hint of shock and playfulness in his voice bringing Akio out of his thoughts as he looks up to see who was talking to him
A man with a built body and a slight pot belly with orange beard and and orange hair with his short ponytail facing up to the sky. if you look closely you would see that this was Iroh the fire nation general but this time his hair was orange and he was quite young. He was carrying a stool containing two cups of tea.
"Iroh, I guess you came today for another tea drinking session "Akio says acting naturally in front of the legendary figure, doing so with the help of his memories. During the five years they've stayed together he'd always have tea with Iroh three times a week and they've relationship ship as reached the point of brothers along with Yamamoto "How are you feeling today I think you said that you will be back on your feet today" Iroh asks as he puts the stool down while giving Akio one of the cups of tea"Yeah just a little exercise and I will be back on my get in no time, but why don't you always drink with Yamamoto" Akio asks as he remembers Yamamoto is the only person who Iroh doesn't ask to drink tea with
"Tch that Bald headed man doesn't approve of me giving mercy to the enemies and he is to strict" Iroh says as he clicks his tongue in annoyance as he remembers the face of his rival
"What did you call me you Fat monkey" A voice shout from outside causing Iroh to just drop his tea in annoyance
The owner of the voice then enters the room.He had orange hair on the sides of his head, and was bald on top. He had a tuft of hair sticking up at the back of his head in a topknot. He had thick but well-managed eyebrows and a mustache with no beard. He had a single large scar on his forehead. He had a prominent crease on his forehead and beneath his eyes, and shallow cheeks he wore a black kimono with white haori on top with the clan's symbol at the back. this was Yamamoto Hima The Chief of the clan's Ninja force and a master swordsman
"Who are you calling a monkey baldie" Iroh snaps back as he stands to meet Yamamoto head on ready to throw hands at him "You of course and don't forget the fat part" he adds again as he meets Iroh head on prepared to throw it down
'I see this is the fierce and competitive personality that the R.O.B mentioned. The purer the bloodline the more fierce you will be, it can even make a peace loving man like Iroh want to fight . This could be troublesome' Akio thought as he sighs feeling the stress coming his way
"Okay guys calm down" Akio says as he drinks his tea to keep calm. When Iroh and Yamamoto hear Akio's voice they just stared at each other for a while before they sat down respectfully in front of him with Iroh drinking his tea while Yamamoto just takes out a rolled up paper from his kimono
"So what brings you here Yamamoto my friend" Akio asks as he drops his cup of tea on the stool then looks at Yamamoto red eyes
"This is the map of the area we are in, we can use this place as our clan's home, I have had some of our people scan the area and they said it's safe" Yamamoto says as he lays down the rolled up paper in his hands showing the map of the area in which they are currently residing
"Hmmm…have you observed the attitudes of the people and how they like the area" Akio asks as he stares at the map noticing that the area where there are lakes and where there are hunting animals have been marked on the map along with areas that should be restricted to children. Yamamoto work progress was really good
"They really like the environment especially the children who are always tired of moving and the adults like this place because it's far away from the constant fighting" Iroh answered this time as he was the one who knew the people better that Yamamoto
"Very well assemble all the clan members" Akio says as he dismisses Yamamoto and Iroh. Taken the time alone to sort out his memories and calm his mind down
After a few minutes the clan members have already arrived in front of Akio house and Akio having sorted out his memories and learnt how to use ninjutsu and chakra went out of the house.
Akio surveyed the assembled Hima Clan members right before him, their eyes shining with anticipation. He could sense the yearning for purpose, the need for unifying principles to bind their newly-forged family beyond just blood ties."My brothers and sisters," he called out, allowing the weight of those words to resonate. "The awakened fires now scorching through our collective veins demand more than mere warmth - they cry out for the philosophical bellows to stoke our destiny's brilliant inferno!"
With a sweeping motion of his hand, Akio summoned the shimmering yin-yang emblem, its fiery form hovering behind him in a dazzling display. "This eternal symbol of balanced dynamism shall be our guiding light," he proclaimed. "But we must ensure that its true meaning is enshrined as the first of the Hima Clan's core tenets!"
With each stroke of his fiery calligraphy, Akio etched ancient ideograms into the air. "Hǒbīng - the push and pull of opposing energies. We must learn to balance aggression with tranquility, and mercy with decisive force when necessary. Walking the Razor's Edge between these poles is our path to mastery."
As the flames danced and swirled, the next tenet blazed into existence. "Huǒzhì - the unquenchable will and passion to forge our own paths, burning away obstacles with sheer tenacious zeal and igniting new possibilities."
A final stroke completed the ideological triptych, its fiery characters illuminating the sky. "Fùxīng - the ability to shed limiting shells and emerge reborn, tempered and refined into something greater than before."
Akio's jade eyes burned with fervent conviction. "With these core philosophies binding us together, and the fiery blood of our shared Hima lineage, we will create a legacy that reshapes whole realms! Who among us will join me in igniting the inferno's inception?"
With a resounding roar, the assembled clan answered Akio's call, their united souls ready to set their destiny's pyre ablaze.
