In the simple wooden house situated on the edge of a precipice, the air is somewhat thin and the temperature is a bit low.
"Fortunately, the eagle clan is accustomed to eating meat, mainly feeding on sea fish, rabbits, sheep, and other animals. This diet is also suitable for humans; otherwise, some strange spiritual places would be quite torturous."
Carrying two plump rabbits that have already been skinned and cleaned, Uchiha Kaien entered the house, revealing a smile as he looked at Guren.
The aroma of roasted meat fills the simple wooden house. Guren is somewhat nervous, afraid of angering Uchiha Kaien. She carefully rotates the meat on the grill.
Uchiha Kaien, watching the nervous Guren, casually smiles, "Guren, I can't take you back with me due to my identity. After all, you are no longer an ordinary ninja. Have you ever heard of the Bloodline Limit?"
The young Guren hurriedly nodded, "The Bloodline Limit refers to users possessing special abilities. All the major countries and ninja villages place great importance on such ninjas. Usually, only those of the same bloodline can inherit it, and others can't learn it."
It's clear that Guren has a basic understanding of the Bloodline Limit, as it is legendary.
Uchiha Kaien, upon hearing this, smiled and nodded, gently stroking Guren's blue-purple hair, saying, "Guren, you are also a ninja with a Bloodline Limit."
"Bloodline Limit?"
In the ninja world, the Bloodline Limit represents power. Hearing that she possesses such power, Guren's face flushed with excitement. Looking at the man she considers her spiritual pillar, she trembles and asks, "Can my power help Lord Kaien?"
"Of course."
This world is somewhat distorted. Even though they have great power, many in this world lack their own opinions, even pinning their hopes on others. Uchiha Kaien smiles at this. He cherishes such loyalty rather than taking it for granted.
"This place is on a cliff high in the sky where the temperature is relatively cold, and it gets even colder in winter."
He took out a large, soft white robe and some clean white quilts for resting and spread them inside the house. Uchiha Kaien then advised, "Guren, since you grew up in a chaotic place, you should know the value of Bloodline ninjas. Until you have strong power, your situation is dangerous."
"Thank you, Lord Kaien."
Looking at the familiar wide white robe draped over her body, and inhaling that familiar scent deeply into her lungs, Guren's face was flushed as she nodded firmly in affirmation.
She was born on this chaotic island, and in this tumultuous world, children with discovered Kekkei Genkai fetch a high price. Awakening often requires strong mental stimulus, so such ninjas are both prized and endangered.
Uchiha Kaien revealed a smile. The distorted world breeds distorted spirits, yet loyalty remains precious.
"Guren, you have a good foundation. After awakening your bloodline, your potential will soar. From today, I will teach you how to become a powerful ninja."
"Lord Kaien, rest assured, I will become the strongest tool in your hands."
At this moment, Guren's eyes were full of determination.
Uchiha Kaien smiled wryly as Guren ate, touching her blue-purple hair. After combing, her hairstyle looked refined—an unexpected majesty for a village girl.
"Since you've refined chakra, you must recognize most characters by now. From today on, my shadow clone will come to train you every few days. I will teach you basic ninja techniques and literacy. Once you can protect yourself, I'll take you to a place where you can grow quickly."
Guren's earlobes turned red at the affectionate tone. Since losing her parents, no one had cared for her so genuinely.
...
"Kaien, although you refined chakra early, your village's crude methods only offered passive enhancement. Now you must learn to actively channel your chakra."
"These are the twelve hand seals. Each channels chakra through different meridians. Practice them diligently. Only when your chakra flows freely through seals can you activate ninjutsu."
Guren, eager, absorbed every word. Talent is the foundation; hard work is the key. Ninjas who master seals can release jutsu with a clap.
"Lord Kaien, I only channel three meridians. The other six are unresponsive."
Guren quickly spotted her weakness.
Uchiha Kaien smiled, "That's why you need rigorous training. Over time, you'll freely control chakra flow."
His satisfied smile showed teaching geniuses was rewarding.
Each night before bed, Guren practiced her seals under Kaien's watchful eye, building the solid foundation necessary to wield true ninja power.
