In a secluded cave atop a mountain, the figure of Indra could be seen sitted down crosslegged, deep in meditation. The atmosphere was peaceful till a hoarse voice interrupted.

"Indra-sama, are you at it again?"

Indra's face contorted in a frown upon hearing the voice as he was disturbed from his meditation

"What is it, Zetsu? Can't you see that I am busy?" Indra asked in annoyance.

"Iya... my apologies, Indra-sama, it's just that I feel that you don't need to follow this method, Shun gave you. I believe that should you defeat your brother and join your two bloodlines, you would be as strong as your father and easily defeat him" Zetsu said in a fake panicked voice, though Indra didn't seem to notice.

Indra frowned as he heard this. Not that he didn't believe Zetsu, after all, it was Zetsu that taught him most of what he knows now. His bloodline potential was excavated with his help, but defeating Ashura while Shun was around was near impossible, after all, that was Shun's condition for giving them this technique.

Another issue was defeating Shun. Indra wasn't conceited to the point of believing he could defeat Shun even if he had double the amount of chakra he had now.

In the battle with Ashura that Shun interrupted, although he and Ashura were already exhausted, he noticed that Shun's chakra reserves weren't overly exhausted even after he used those mind-blowing techniques. Worse of all was that he could see his reserves being restored with every breath he took.

This was another reason he was interested in the technique. If he could master it even a little, he could have another ace up his sleeve against Ashura. Of course, he didn't harbor any thoughts of defeating Shun, after all, he grew up with him and although he was lauded as a genius, he knew Shun was an even more monstrous genius.

On the side, although Zetsu knew how terrifying Shun was, and how strong the breathing technique was, he still didn't want Indra to learn it because he feared Indra would develop in the same manner as Shun and unlock his Rinnengan with the help of Natural energy.

Although it would be good for his goals, he also wanted to exterminate all of his mother's bloodline, and what better way to achieve that than to have the brothers kill each other than use the body of the other as a vessel for his mother?

"Hn, I'm aware of that, but Ashura Is also learning this technique, if he does and I lag behind more than I already am, then it would be near impossible to achieve my goal," Indra said in a gruff voice.

Zetsu knew this was in fact, the truth and was racking his brain to create another alternative.

Zetsu may be smart but even he knew that in front of the terror he felt from Shun's aura and chakra, any manipulation was obsolete.

As he was in his head, he felt a bolt of chakra heading toward their direction at an alarming speed and jolted as he noticed who had that aura and chakra presence and immediately hid, after saying, "Seems like you have a visitor, Indra-sama"

"Hm?" Indra asked in confusion before he finally felt a familiar presence nearing him and said, "Oh"

At the moment he realized who it was, a flash appeared inside the dimly lit cave and Shun's figure was shown as the lightning on his body didn't fade, lighting up the cave.

"Yo" Shun greeted with his right hand like a certain white-haired masked pervert. "Hope you don't mind the lighting"

Indra didn't think much of it, or rather, even if he thought anything of it, he couldn't do anything about it.

"What bring you here Shun," Indra asked.

"Straight to the point, huh? I like that too. Now, cut out whatever it is you're doing now, I have something interesting to show you, Ashura, and the old man." Shun said excitedly with a smile on his face.

"You aren't doing anything right? Good, let's go." Shun asked and without waiting for a reply, he put his hands on Indra's shoulder and vanished from there.

In that split second, before they vanished, he glanced at the corner Zetsu disappeared into and locked eyes with it.

Zetsu who just made eye contact with Shun felt like his heart would have let out of his chest if he had one.

....

As Shun blitzed out of the cave, he ran toward the doest area Ashura always liked relaxing at. Of course, Shun felt his chakra signature there before running there.

The same conversation occurred between them and before Ashura could actually grasp the situation, Shun grabbed him and ran towards the house as that was where Hagoromo is at.

Arriving at the main hall where Hagoromo was almost perpetually sitted at, Shun burst In with Indra and Ashura in hand. The house butler, Itami, was also there, he was Hagoromo's right-hand man after all.

Hagoromo and Itami weren't surprised at my abrupt entry but Itami was flustered seeing Indra and Ashura together in the same room.

Itami had followed Hagoromo for quite some time now, l had taken care of Indra and Ashura from childhood, even Shun received his care growing up, and because he cared for both Indra and Ashura but was relatively weak to do anything about it, he was always flustered seeing the two together, even if he knew they wouldn't be fighting with Shun around.

Hagoromo sighed.

"Heya, Jii-san, Itami-jiisan." Shun greeted.

"Tou-Sama, Jii-san'' Ashura greeted formally while Indra just nodded at them and folded his hands looking elsewhere.

Shun chuckled at their reactions, especially Itami's but kept quiet right after as if he didn't barge inside the room but was summoned instead.

Hagoromo sighed again and said, "Shun-Kun, you know you are a man now right? Sigh, I know you wouldn't come here with Indra and Ashura without having something to say. Right?"

"Haha, old man, you know me too well, and you're right, I called you all here to make a presentation and afterward, a documentary to remember this day by" Shun replied

Opening his palms, the Calogram appeared in it not evoking any surprise from anyone. Pouting Alightly at their lack of reaction, Shun continued, "This here is a camera I produced, now called Calogram, it..."

Shun went on to explain the ins and Outs of the calogram to them and after a moment of silence, Hagorimo asked, "So this... Calogram as you call it, is a device that captureEvansnts and moments for the future?"

"Essentially, yes" Shun replied. "I have already done a demonstration for the girls and confirmed it was working well"

"So you weren't sure it was working well?" Ashura asked.

"What gave you that idea?" Shun asked in shock. This was one of Ashura's rare moments of smartness. He was confident in his creation. Him, going to the girls was merely to show it off to Hinami and Ria, coincidentally Kanna and Miyako were there.

"Anyways, check this out," Shun said and repeated the process he took previously to take the picture for the girls. This time he didn't bother telling them to gather together, instead, he threw the calogram up in the air and it took the picture at an angle that captured the entire room with a bright flash.

"Woah, what was that?" Ashura screamed in shock at the abrupt flash of light.

"Hehe," Shun chuckled. He didn't need to warn them like the girls, after all, they were all boys so they could handle this much.

"Alright, wait for the magic," Shun said and pulled the calogram towards him, and repeated the process. A moment later, a few pictures slid out and Shun presented them to them.

The first to react was Ashura, "Woah, what is this? How are we on this piece of paper?"

'And there goes the little flicker of smartness that he showed moments ago.' Shun thought.

"Oh? Is this what you meant by capturing a moment? Ingenious" Hagoromo praised calmly while stroking his beard.

"Indeed. I must say, I didn't grasp your explanation previously but seeing this I get a rough idea of what you mean by capturing a moment." Itami said nodding his head sagely.

Indra was, as usual, stoically looking at the picture though a trace of awe was showing in his eyes.

'I wonder how he controls his facial muscles so well, I gotta learn that' Shun thought.

"Haha, no need to think about the next feature as that's the reason I gathered us all here. We're going to be making a documentary. That is a record of sorts, for future purposes, don't ask too many questions. Alright, let's go" Shun said in one breath.

Pressing a button again, he threw the calogram up in the air but this time, a bright light was flashing from a point on it.

Seeing his preparations done, Shun turned to them and said, "Alright, follow my lead and go on from there," facing the calogram once more, Shun started, "Heya, peep, whoever is watching this. The name's Shun Otsutsuki, not by blood though, just the name. As you can see beside me is my brothers in all but blood, Indra Otsutsuki, and Ashura Otsutsuki, and the old man with the weird eyes is the OG Sage, our father, the other old man next to him is also our other father, don't strain your brains thinking how tthat'spossible, it just is. Well, that should be all, I guess? Oh Right! I like things that I like and everything that gives me new knowledge and I hate things I don't like. My dream is to be able to live forever. As for my specialty, well, I have a dojutsu I call the Rikugan, it gives me varying abilities which is.... a secret. I guess that should be all, right?" Shun asked looking at Indra and Ashura.

"How am I supposed to know?" Ashura asked back while Indra shrugged.

"Well, whatever, your turn next, Indra," Shun said and Indra looked peeved for a moment before he began in a deep and grumpy voice, "My name is Indra Otsutsuki... I have the Sharingan... I like very few things and hate a lot of things" He said while looking at Shun.

Shun meanwhile shyly waved his hands and said, "stop it, you're making me blush" which made everyone deadpan at him.

"You aren't done yet, Indra, what's your dream?" Shun asked, bringing their attention back.

"Dream huh? I have a dream where I would be able to show everyone that strength is the true way forward and strive toward a world of only the strong" Indra said, his eyes blazing with an astonishing amount of zeal.

A moment of silence followed right after.

"Well, that's good and all, but you gats be strong, like super strong to achieve that. You know that right?" Shun said breaking the silence.

"Hn" Indra nodded as his eyes became indifferent again.

"Well, it's your turn Ashura"

"Yeah," Ashura acclaimed and following Shun's example, he began "heya, the name's Ashura Otsutsuki and these are my brothers, Shun and Indra," pointing behind him, he continued, "This is my father and this is my uncle, Itami-san. I like a lot of things like playing around with the village children, the villagers, my brothers, and family as a whole and the good Shun cooks. I don't hate a lot of things" reaching this point, his mood dimmed and he said, "I hate that my brother always likes to fight and I have to fight him back. My dream is to ne able to make my brother understand things and resolve things peacefully" Ashura finished with deterioration oozing from his words.

'Wow, these two, I wouldn't be surprised if they learned a way to manifest haki. They both have this weird amount of determination' Shun thought.

"Well that's good" Shun clapped cheerfully, "alright pops your turn"

"Cough, I don't know what else to say, but since tou said to follow your example, ill do just that. Hello, my name is Hagoromo Otsutsuki. I like a lot of things, most importantly, peace. What I hate, hmm... I think I have yet to find out, but if I must say one thing, then it's death and an unjust one at that" Hagoromo started and finished calmly.

"Hmm, good one pops. Alright, Itami-jii, your turn" Shun said.

"Hmm, Shun-Kun, I don't know what to say..."

"Just follow our lead,"

"Well, ok. My name is Itami, I like a lot of things especially peace and I hate unwarranted or unnecessary violence. My dream has likely been fulfilled" he said.

"Hmm, that was short. Anyway, that was a good documentary. Who wants to have a look at it?"

"Me" Ashura replied excitedly. 'If the picture produced by this device could look so realistic, what would a record look like' he thought.

Shun chuckled and waved his hands, drawing the calogram into his hand. With some pushes here and there, a light flickered from a spot and projected the whole room from another angle with all of them as they were moments ago.

They all looked in awe as the figures of themselves moved, then the figure of Shun began talking, followed by Indra and then Ashura, Hagoromo, and then Itami.

After the whole thing played out, they were all awe-stricken for a good while before Hagoromo broke out of his stupor and calmly said, "This is interesting in more ways than one. Even genius won't do in evaluating this"

Shun laughed at the praise but then Hagoromo turned serious and said, "Take that it doesn't fall into the wrong hands, I would also like to believe you won't use this for nefarious purposes."

Shun nodded and said, "You don't have to worry about that pops, you can trust me"

Hagoromo nodded. After that, Ashura asked to borrow the calogram for a while and Shun agreed, after which he took it and stormed out of the room. Shun looked on with a smile and not less than 5 minutes later, he came back with an embarrassed smile and asked Shun how the calogram is operated on.

Shun laughed at that and taught the basic things about the calogram. After that, he stormed off once more.

Indra stayed for some time extra before leaving. Before he left, Shun said, "Oh, Indra,"

"Hm?" He stopped and turned.

"With this calogram, I will be recording every important event just so you know"

Indra flinched slightly and luckily Shun caught that slight movement and smiled.

"Hn" Indra said and left.
