Title: First Contact

...

With all the notable clans initiated into our business initiative, there was naturally a need to create a system powerful enough to record all the transactions that will be done by people both individual and communal.

At my level in Fuinjutsu, I was only a thought away from creating something like that and in next to no time, I created a powerful processor with Eien as the governing brain.

As I promised my clients, I created some worker puppets and sent them out to various lands to build buildings according to a plan I drew.

No matter where you're, as far as you have your card in hand, you could withdraw any amount of money from your account.

This news eventually reached the hear of some Daimyos and as I expected from them, well, most of them, they began wanting a part in it.

One arrogant bastard even had the gall to claim ownership of the land I had built one of my banks in other to monopolize the entire thing... Unfortunately for him, he met a rather brutal ending at the hands of Sebas.

I was at the HQ when I heard of this but before I could even think of how to handle the issue, Sebas took matter into his own hands and ended the Daimyos entire lineage.

I knew it was wrong, truly, I knew but I found it hard to sympathize with the family. Whether it was due to my now rather Unique species or because I was now overly used to death, I didn't have much of a reaction. I only felt pity for an instant and then, nothing.

Well, that's that.

After that incident, rumor spread but as humans will always be humans, some unique fools decided to test out their skills against the might of one of the banks in the future Land of Mist.

Unfortunately for them, they had to meet the maids attending to Kaguya and even more unfortunate for them, Kaguya had rebuilt her Maids and made them able to use chakra outside their body.

All in all, they met a rather brutal ending too.

In less than 3 years, my banking system became the main stay in the economic sector of the world.

Although I had hoped that the clans would have a good enough foresight to see the importance of what I was doing and start their own, they still relied on the meager amounts the Daimyos give them in payment for some tasks.

In a way, I think that it's not even Zetsu that made the clans fight endlessly but the Daimyos. Shortsighted bastards who only see the immediate benefits in front of them.

The clans are also to blame for also being shortsighted enough to even consider doing what they do for the Daimyos.

One interesting thing I found about this world is that there is this staunch respect given to people in authority and authority during this time was equated to amount of land one possesses.

The more land you possess, the more say you have in society whether you have chakra or not.

This led me to think, "Why don't the clans take over the entire thing and look for ways to advance, after all, they do have chakra, a unique energy even more versatile that most fictional energy."

That was when I came back to the root of all things, Zetsu and Ishikki.

Without me in the mix, these two would have used this world as their pet project, scheming for as long as possible to achieve their goal while holding the people of this world back from developing.

Without me in the mix, that was how it was gonna play out and also with me in it, I don't plan on doing anything unreasonable.

This world is gonna take its supposed trajectory while I make some minute adjustments to better suit the future I hope would come.

Although I wasn't all that emotionally attached to some people I was still deeply attached to the characters that will come. I think I'm almost reverting back to the me from my earlier days, when I still saw everyone as NPCs while only Hinami, Ria and Kaguya with some unique few like Fenrir, my children and Da can be considered real enough to me.

The rest, even if the world exploded right now, I would at most feel it's a pity as far as the people close to me survive.

A pity because the Naruto I wanted to see would not exist any longer.

Other than that, nothing.

....

Time continue to pass and in this day, something interesting happened.

Someone I hadn't had the interest in looking for decided to pay me a visit.

The interesting thing was that I was currently in this little dimension that all four of us out in our respective insights into building and still, this fellow was able to gain access into this place.

"I'm impressed. For you to be able to access this dimension controlled by me without my permission." I said complimenting the figure.

The figure nodded, accepting the compliment.

"It wasn't that hard since I knew the origin point that separated this dimension from the original point, I just followed the coordinate from where this part of space seen connects to and then scanned for any anomaly, and here I am." The figure said.

"And here you are." I repeated. We looked at each other for quite some time before I broke the silence. "I believe you didn't come here to have a staring contest with me, right?"

"Certainly."

"Well do tell. Why are you here?" I asked

He looked at me with an even deeper eye and then asked. "Whose side are you on?"

"What?"

"I've been watching you for quite sometime now and have yet to understand why you do the things you do. I won't say I'm all knowing and wise but I dare say I'm wise enough by my standards and yet, I'm unable to see through you. Help me understand, which side are you on?" The figure asked again.

I looked at the guys up and down and then nodded my head in understanding. Truly knowledge is power. No, knowledge when applied is power.

I highly doubt that this guy would be here if we both possessed the same amount of information I possess but unfortunately he doesn't and to anyone monitoring my movements, I'm likely doing everything on a whim.

Unfortunately for them, that can't be further from the truth.

"Well, Otsustsuki Ishikki, may I call you that? Good. You see Ishikki, if I really decided to pick a side, then that side would have already won this little skit you have going on." Standing up from my position, I look at Ishikki's Illusory body and continued.

"If I'm truly going to be picking a side, the I'd say I'm picking this planet side. You may have known this but I'm a pure blood of this planet. This is my root so be it Zetsu or you, Ishikki, I'll be standing against you."

I looked at him seriously before smiling and asked. "Does the Skymist Empire sound familiar to you?"

He visibly shook as he heard my question and as this is is thought projection, it's hard to actually hide what he's feeling.

My smile grew wider before I continued. "It's good that you know, and for me to know and know the connection between you two should tell you lots. My advice, little Ishikki or should I call you Jigen now, is to quickly reach your peak, coz you see, I'm waiting for the time of prophecy. The time when this world will finally step on its path towards progress, that time will be the moment I'll begin to make moves, and trust me Jigen, if your strength is still at this level at that time, then you should just give up. You have less than two hundred years left, Jigen. Chop Chop, my good friend, don't lag behind too much."

I walked back to the recliner I was laying down in before I was interrupted and then looked back at him and said. "May I invite you to leave please? And oh, don't think about trying to hinder whatever I do. I may decide that your life is forfeit and find you wherever you are hiding."

Ishikki's Illusory body began to fade as he looked at me fiercely. If looks could kill then I would have died many time over. Wait, looks could actually kill but he isn't strong enough to do that. Pity.

And damn did he look intimidating with that weird colored eyes. I almost want to have another Dojutsu just to look cool.

I wonder how I'll fare against him at his peak. He had an even more terrifying control over space than Kaguya did back then. I wonder how it'll be like in the future now that I've given him some motivation.

Sukuna Hikona allows him to instantaneously shrink himself or any nonliving matter within his gaze and return it to its original size at will.

Even energy and other chakra-based substances can be affected. Because the change in size happens too fast for the human eye to see, it is can be mistaken for teleportation.

The downside is that It can not be used on oneself if they are physically paralysed.

Daikokuten can be used to store these objects within a dimension where time doesn't flow, allowing them to maintain their condition. Even humans can be trapped there.

The Disruption cube is another interesting technique of his. This cube could disrupt all sensor type individual in the area of influence. Even Naruto in his Sage mode+Kurama mode was influenced by it.

The Kama rift is like the normal technique almost all 1M+ individual should possess if they're wise enough so it isn't anything much.

All in all, this guy is even haxer than Kaguya in his weak form, if he ate the Chakra fruit Kaguya ate then I dread to even imagine how dangerous he'd be for any causal person from this planet.

Not even Hagoromo and Hamura could deal with him. Kaguya did mess up while she was fighting them because they were her children but this guy? He ain't gonna show no mercy.

Imagine kicking Sasuke out of his armoured Susanno formed from his Rinnengan. Hagoromo was able to withstand the Ten Tails Bijudama with his Rinnengan powered Susanno but this guy kicked Sasuke out of his.

How absurd is that?

Well maybe it's due to Sasuke only inheriting half of Hagoromo's chakra but still..

I look forward to how much he'd grow during the time of Naruto's next generation.

Sorry for the rant, I just felt like shedding some light on other influential individuals. The next chapter will probably be Ishikki's and Zetsu's POV. After that, will be the birth of Hashirama and Madara.

Sorry, but I'm not gonna focus on the warring aspect of the warring state era. Just some minor incidents and that's it. My main focus of this fanfic should be battles that can actually intrigue Shun as he's way beyond the normal Shinobi battles and their handsign powered techniques.
