Sakichi Senju (Naruto OC)

Team 4

"Kichii-!" Tsunade suddenly called out, swinging open Sakichi's door. The sleepy Senju boy blinked in her direction, squinting his eyes against the brightness of the morning. "Morning!" she greeted with a cheeky smile, as though she hadn't just abruptly awakened him. "Breakfast is ready," she added with a hint of amusement.

Sakichi groaned softly, still half-asleep. "Yeah, yeah," he muttered dismissively, waving his hand as he sank deeper into his bed. Taking his time to get dressed, Sakichi finally made his way to the kitchen, where he found his father, Hashirama, and Aunt Mito sitting around the table. He greeted them softly, "Morning," before sitting down to eat his breakfast. Kaiyu, his younger brother, followed shortly behind, his excitement clearly evident.

The adults were engaged in casual conversation about the village, the topics ranging from recent developments to minor events. Sakichi, however, remained quiet as he ate, focusing on the food before him. He didn’t need to get involved in their discussions.

After a while, Hashirama stood up, stretching his arms with a satisfied sigh. "Well, I better get to my office. Thank you for breakfast, Mito." He leaned down to kiss the redhead on top of her head.

Tobirama followed shortly after, gathering the dirty dishes and placing them in the sink. "Boys," he said, turning towards them as he dried his hands. "You will both be called up to the Hokage’s office later today, so don’t get too involved in anything."

"Why? Are we going on a mission?" Kaiyu’s eyes lit up with excitement at the thought. Tobirama paused, eyeing his son briefly. "Not quite," he replied before walking off. The two boys finished their food, handing their plates to Mito, who continued washing dishes as the two made their way through the house.

"Want to train with me for a bit, Kaiyu?" Sakichi asked, glancing at his brother. The younger boy blinked at him for a moment, then broke into a bright smile. "Of course!" he said before giving Sakichi a playful nudge with his elbow and jogging ahead. "Last one to the training field gets a disadvantage when fighting!" Kaiyu called over his shoulder, a mischievous grin plastered on his face.

Sakichi chuckled softly, rolling his eyes. "Tch," he muttered before slipping on his shoes and following his brother out the door. The two raced to the training field, Sakichi allowing his brother to win by a hair. "Ha!" Kaiyu laughed, stopping abruptly, spinning on his heel, and pointing dramatically at Sakichi. "No Katana," he declared quickly.

"Eh? Out of all things you chose—"

Kaiyu leaned in, smirking. "Oi! I choose your disadvantage. Now, go on, Niisan... rid yourself of your weapon."

Sakichi sighed, unstrapping his katana from his waist and setting it aside. Despite the mild frustration, he couldn’t help but appreciate his brother’s competitive spirit. The two stood still, facing each other, each waiting for the other to make a move. A gentle breeze passed between them, the tension palpable.

Without warning, Kaiyu dashed forward, calling out, "Lightning Style: Beam Waves!" He thrust his hand forward, and several beams of lightning shot from his palm.

Sakichi leapt into the air, narrowly avoiding the attacks. "Water Release: Heavenly Weeping!" he called out as he spit several water needles at his brother, aiming to catch him off guard.

"Tch." Kaiyu squinted, pulling out a kunai to deflect the water needles. Sakichi used the distraction to close the distance, his right fist swirling with water to form a spike.

With a determined grin, he clashed his water spike against Kaiyu’s kunai. For a moment, they held their ground, neither willing to give in. Sakichi poured more chakra into his water spike, making it spin faster. Sparks flew from Kaiyu’s kunai as the two struggled against each other, but before either could gain the upper hand, the strong winds created by the speed of the water spike blew them both back.
