Life

All men are not created equal. Some might be born swifter of foot, some with greater beauty, some are born into poverty and others are born sick and feeble. In the same way, are the abilities of the people in this world.

The uzumaki and their massive amounts of chakra, with their unique qualities in karin, naruto and nagato not to mention their sealing jutsu. The uchiha and their sharingan, the senju and their longevity and chakra shared by the uzumaki and the wood style as well. There are many different abilities unfair to others.

But even then abilities within these clans are different: like that of neiji hyuga , or uchiha such as shisui whose ability is the most dangerous of them all, in his league, but perhaps even the rinnegan might not be able to counter it, though it could, as well. In this world there are many such abilities ; though human nature of conflict have whittled down these forces , the uchiha, the senju, and many others like the uzumaki to the brink of extinction.

Mugen was aware of all of this so he would not lust after shisui's or obito's ability. Even though they are really powerful. They are not his style. He will climb up with his own abilities. Not much is known about the sharingan. Yes, we know of people using it but not it, itself. Like moving a body physically versus biology. What seems to be the case is emotion, strong or perhaps even strange emotions.

Mugen thought of a crazy idea. He will surpass the base sharingan. Nothing much is known about it like how some were different and why In their middle stages. He will find someway to surpass it without advancing it to a Mangekyo sharingan. And then after he does that he will find some way to perchance, make his ability even more powerful when advancing to The mangekyo.

The former he wasn't sure of how to go about it. The latter, however he had some idea how to do it. To make his ability more powerful; he will suppress its advancement by sealing all his emotions when they get out of hand and recording them, somehow, to store. He would also find life changing and emotional traumas of other people along with their feelings and store them in his mind as well. The finishing touches were: going on a journey while experiencing many things,as well as, sealing those away for a while as well and finally he will slumber in a frozen cold place and imprison himself in ice while sealing away all his memories of people and life itself becoming like a blank slate.

And when the time is right he will release all those memories and emotions all at once. Flooding into him in a split second. And then only then will he awaken. It's a risky move he could become an idiot, die or something else entirely like losing his personality but he feels this is the way to go and this is his style. It can't take too long though, don't want to miss out on all the fun. So he will go on missions everywhere and travel before then. He shall end it just before naruto's era when he begins his legend at twelve. If all goes well, before or after he returns from his training with Jiraiya; he shall awaken.

His plans for the future were far from refined but it'll just have to do. That was just the draft anyway.

All of Mugen's enlightenment only happened within an hour. As he was about to set out to train, his mother detained him for birthday celebrations. He told her he only had 2 hours to spare so after that he'd leave. He had took drastic measures and told her he would live in the wilderness for his training. She was very angry with him but after he made his stance clear she knew there was no stopping him once he had his mind set so he had to send her a message now and again to let her know he is safe.

He left after two hours.

To his two year training!!!!!

Mugen was the type to be cruel to others but even more cruel to himself. Guy and rock Lee, his methods were 100 times more viscous than theirs, with his knowledge of dragonball, one piece, cultivation novels and others. He did every crazy training method he was able to and thought of.

His body would have been totally destroyed if he wasn't so young, to regenerate the destroyed cells and had his kekkei tōta. Again, the no limit perk played a crucial role: in his body not being crippled and it also was the main instigator in creating the tiny monster that would emerge after two years.

Back at home

Mugen's mom was worried sick about him and almost immediately rushed out to bring him back. He was so young after all. But she believed in him, well that and she didn't know where he was. "That crafty little kid" she thought. It would be lonely by herself. He had given her a lot of money saying his being brought into this world is priceless and whittled her down to accept. She thought of opening a store to pass the time and get to know the villagers better. She needed company and that little devil even brought saber with him not thinking of his poor mother. She gazed up into the sky like Mugen's usual habit, thinking of him.

Kurenai was also getting lonely as he had forgotten about giving her a notice. The students at the academy were asking her where her boyfriend was. Kurenai wanted to search for him; realising his sudden absence from her. He had already been engraved in her heart. He had been so open. Kurenai thought she wasn't blunt enough and should have told him her feelings as well. Well well, this 8-9 year old little kid was worrying over love . She was so young and children are basically the easiest thing to brainwash. Mugen was already irreplaceable for her.

The third had tried to get info on the child but his mother was recently immigrated and not much was known about his father. He also has no idea where he lived. After a while he found a reason to casually ask the uchiha when they met for some small business. He luckily found out but Mugen was long gone. He, as hokage couldn't even locate one of his villagers, how embarrassing. Sarutobi thought exasperatingly .

Jiraiya also thought of the kid occasionally but they never crossed paths after that time. He went to look but he wasn't there. Jiraiya thought that their paths will cross once more, another time, if fate allows it. Well that, and this is a village; he's bound to run into him sometime, when he returns from one of his journeys.

Tsunade also thought of him occasionally. Whenever she was alone at night or in a forest she would remember his antics. They had little by little suppressed her level of ..... Trauma with the loss of her two beloveds. She thought she would eventually forget about him. But she was wrong. While she no longer thought of him everyday like at first. His face would pop up in her mind every single week without fail.

Two years came and went in the blink of an eye.
