Chapter 150 - The Wood Style User...

Chapter 150

Title: The Wood Style User...

....

As Yami laughed at little Mei's speech. She couldn't help but be angry like this, the way she saw it Yami seemed like he was mocking her father's death. Even Hachi and his Genin teammates seemed a little perturbed by this. Though Kai Inuzuka, their jonin teacher has a look of absolute certainty, he trusted Yami, and knew that he would make the right decision. Kai's and the other Inuzuka's loyalties have been nurtured for a long time by Yami, or what they assumed to be his shadow clone.

Finally Mei couldn't take anymore of Yami's ridicule so she decided to angrily say. "What are you laughing for, Yami Inuzuka."

When he heard this, Yami finally stopped laughing, but his face still had a smirk. "Wait, so you are real about this... hahahahaha."

Yami started laughing again, but this time as Mei was about to say something angrily again. Yami suddenly stopped laughing, his face morphed into a cold look as he said. "We are ninja, we leave death and destruction behind each of our steps. How many people's lives do you think your father ruined, hundreds or thousands.... If you understand that, then don't start speaking stupid things little girl. Your father died as he lived... just another nameless ninja."

Mei's fists were shaking in anger. But this time when she wanted to say something and rebuke Yami. She saw the look in his eyes, unlike his smiley face and friendly look in his eyes that he had before. Now his face was stone cold and his eyes even colder. She knew that one more talk out of line and the next thing she would feel would be her head flying off her body. So in the end, she kept her anger inside her and didn't say anything.

When Yami saw this, he seemed strangely pleased. "You may survive us yet, little Mei."

Then he went forward and offered the girl his hand. She seemed unsure for a split second, thinking of the horrible things that will happen to her. But she pushed down all of the fear and hesitation as she took his hand.

When Hachi saw this, he felt a little weird, as if his stomach fell to the ground. He wanted to say something, but he couldn't...

*fwosh!*

So just like that, in a black flash, Yami and Mei both disappeared. But not before Yami, used a telepathic message that gave different orders to the mosquitoes close by. 

....

They are then teleported to Yami's tent, back in his Komoha Camp. Yami just looks at Mei and suddenly, her eyes become hollow, indicating that she is in a Genjutsu. 

'Hmmm... if I am to use the Lava and Boil style... my strength would be  raised by another 20%.'  Thought Yami as he prepared for another experiment, his lips morphed into a sinister smile

....

Back in Konoha something else was happening, one of Yami's clones was in one of the Inuzuka Orphanages when he looked at one of the kids in there, and smiled towards them. 

"Yamato, you seem nervous, is something going on." Asked the Yami's shadow clone, as he looked at Yamato. 

Yamato is an orphan that was 'randomly' selected to be in the Inuzuka Orphanage. 

'All according to plan.' Thinks Yami's clone as it reviews the plan that the original came up with. 

Yamato with uncertainty nodded and gently touched the ground. 

The kids laughed at this since it seems fun to them, but the matron has a shocked look on her face. She truly understands what this means, this is the legendary Wood Release.

Yami's clone has a mischievous smile on his face. Things were all according to his plan.

....

When that happened, Konoha had a shock. Finally, after many generations, another Wood Style user has appeared, and he is a member of the Inuzuka Clan.

Immediately as soon as it was announced, Yami was 'surprised so he started negotiating certain things with the Konoha Village. 

Of course, Yamato would still be part of the Inuzuka Clan, no one would even dare dispute someone like Yami on this.

But he has now become more of a symbol now, of a new hope. To the civilians this was a miracle that could be attributed to fate. But the ninja were different, most of them already pieced together that this was a little too much of a coincidence. They immediately started suspecting Yami, of some type of... interference with Yamato's so called 'natural' wood release.

No matter how things developed though, one thing could be agreed on by everyone. The Inuzuka Clan, just got another rising star. Also with the Crystal Release user Guren, that didn't cause too much of an uproar, because even though Crystal Release Kekkei Genkai is  strong, it doesn't have any legendary feats like the Wood Style.

Just like this, two more months passed, the Third Ninja War was still going on. But for Yami, it was no problem at all, he kept getting benefits from it. Also Mei Terumi, has somehow 'escaped' from Konoha during one of Yami's negotiations in Konoha. 

Though no one said anything, the latent clan head meetings have become more of a playground for Yami, and every clan head has noticed this. Yami's political power kept raising and raising. No one could do anything, it was already too late, the other clans were occupied with the war going on. But the Inuzuka kept advancing forward, so it was a surprise when ninjas came back from the war and saw different Inuzuka banners around different shops and companies.

Even though ninjas aren't very knowledgeable in economics. They could still understand what this meant, the Inuzuka Clan... no it is Yami Inuzuka who has taken over Konoha. But this came as grave news to the people who even had thoughts of going against Yami... he has something like political immunity... he is untouchable by normal political means anymore, even the Daimyo would have to listen to his 'suggestions'.

.....

A/N: Just to clarify, YES Yami did experiment on Yamato to give him the Wood Release.
