Character's Physical Description:
For a male, Akujin is very short. He stands at only 5 feet 10 inches tall and he is a very scrawny individual due to living in the mines with his parents, now deceased, for all of his life. He has blue, shoulder length hair and his eyes are hazel colored. He has a marking on his stomach from his encounter with his religion's God and he wears glasses due to losing nearly all of his sight in his left eye and the fact that he cannot see anything without his glasses on. When he starts to use the Hachimon, his skin turns a darker color typically brownish with his eyes losing their pupil when using this hidden power that was given to him by God. Also, he typically wears a robe due to his faith and being a monk.But, when he is working in the hospital, he wears the traditional white medical outfit provided to him and it usually has blood all over it when he is done at night. If he is out in public, he can be seen wearing his robe or if he is going to an important event, he will be wearing his uniform that consists of a blue jacket, black pants, a black belt with a golden cross symbol at the buckle, black boots, and a white shirt with a cross typically around his neck.

Character's Mental Description:
Mentally, Akujin is pretty much normal but he does have a few problems. Due to his parents both dying at early ages for him, he blames himself for their losses and believes it is all his fault that they are dead and that he failed them as a son. Also, he always looks on the bad side of things and has struggled to fight his depression multiple times; it never lead to suicide or any attempts, but he does have depression and can we blame him since he works in the medical field and sees so many people dying coming into the hospital and then losing some of those people's lives right between his own two hands? But, aside from his depression, he also has a obsession with training and trying to perfect his arts of taijutsu and genjutsu. He also grew an obsession with his faith after encounter God in his mediation once and promising to read the copy of the book that his dad had. In other words, he is very religious with a side of obsession of faith and training with some depression.

Character History*/**:

Spoiler

The Childhood Years:
On the third day of October twenty one years ago, a little boy was born to a monk and his wife in the safety of an Abandoned Mine in the little village of Iwagakure. Little did he know his life was going to entail growing up and being secluded from the rest of society due to his parents being hermits and going against the traditional beliefs of the village know as the Old Gods and the belief of a Circle of Five being the cycle of life. But, he would soon find out that his life was much different than the other kids growing up and that is where this little story progresses.

After the birth of this little legend, he was nurtured and loved like any child should be at that stage in their mere mortal lives. The nurturing and loving continued until he was able to stand on his own two feet and able to communicate with his parents. After he was able to stand and talk, his parents practically stopped giving him love and nurturing like they did when he was a kid. It wasn't because they didn't care about him or love him, on the contrary they loved him very much and were doing this to make him stronger and be better prepared for what life decided to throw at him which would be much as he would find out. Being born into a family of monks, you would assume Akujin would follow entirely in his parents' footsteps and be a monk like them. But, the boy choose not to follow in their footsteps and choose to attend the Academy like most children did to become shinobi and eventually serve the village. The age of entrance into the Academy for Akujin was a mere 8 years old, much sooner than many villagers entered into the Academy. Of course, Akujin should be able to pass with flying colors and be able to become a Genin or the equivalent of one of the specialty branches in the village, right? Absolutely wrong, the first true hardship for Akujin was attending and graduating the Academy. Some said it was suppose to be a challenge to the children's minds to get them to think like society wanted them to think. That was true for Akujin's mind as the young student failed multiple examinations to graduate from the Academy and even at such a young age questioned authority on the ideas of a true shinobi and the structure of society in this country. What truly was a shinobi and what truly was the right way for the foundation of a village and its beliefs in ruling, religion, and everything else? Sadly, that question would never be solved for Akujin before he graduated after four long years at the Academy after many failures and people graduating years before him. He would graduate almost the lowest in his class and decided to choose the medical path for his future since he was still living in the mines with his parents away from the rest of society still and it would be more beneficial to him to help heal people and treat them back to normal than to lay his fingers into a bloody conflict that would provide more catastrophic and deadly.

But, the questioning of authority would not go away anytime soon as he was approaching his teenage years where many kids started to become rebellious and thinking they were right about everything. Akujin would follow suit and prove to be the same way as many teenagers, but it would also be the time for him to start working in the medical field and trying to make a name for himself.

The Adolescent Years:
"The Adolescent Years", or the Years when Akujin started to figure out who he was, were very eventful and had a lot of ups and downs. Starting with his career in the medical field, he decided to join the regular medical shinobi over the Shamans of the village. It wasn't anything against either branch. In all honesty, Akujin just believed the normal medical shinobis' way of treatment and healing was far more interesting and more effective over the spiritually-guided energy that the Shamans believed in. Did he think either side of the medical field was inferior than the other? Absolutely not, but considering his parents' views on the Old Gods and the belief of a Circle of Five, it would make sense as to way Akujin wasn't entirely supportive for the Shamans, but he had no real issues with them. After choosing a side in the medical field, Akujin began studying from watching other medics attending to patients and the method of treatment, over studying it in the books. Truthfully, he would have enhanced his knowledge and understanding of medical conditions and terms if he would read the books presented in the hospital, but observing and remembering how procedures worked also worked as well. Eventually, he would start to dig into the research books on procedures, effects, conditions, treatmen, et al after coming home from the hospital one night to his mother suffocating from being crushed by rocks that had fallen in the mine on top of her due to tremors that had occurred in the mines or what Akujin believed to be troublemaking teenagers trying to blow up things up in a mine that they believed to be abandoned to impress some girls or each other. In either case, Akujin lost his mother while being in his teens and his father was devastated by the loss to the point that he went into a deep depression and started to forget to eat and drink. Thankfully for him, his son took care of him during this period and kept him going and living.

***Aside from choosing a side in the medical field and losing a mother while in his teens, Akujin also began to learn how to fight from his father. The story of how he learned to fight and unlock his family's hidden powers began on a cold and rainy night during the winter months:

His shift was over at the hospital for the night. After having three children come in with lacerations on their necks and their blood poisoned, the late teenager had failed to save the lives of the children. Tragic, disappointing, and downright pathetic. The male, who had managed to help out in so many treatments and diagnoses before, could not save three mere innocent lives tonight. The frustration and disappointment could be seen clearly on his face as he covered up the three bodies for the last time and dropped to his knees holding his head and started to bawl. He had failed those kids, he had failed the hospital, and he had failed himself! It was the first time he had not been able to save a life as a medical shinobi and it felt horrible. He knew this wasn't something he could ultimately control since death was a part of life, but he wished so much to have saved those children's lives.

But, he had done what he thought was best and had failed to save their lives. They were hopefully in a better place now and not suffering, like they had been when rushed into the hospital. Getting up from his position on his knees, he closed his eyes and said a quick prayer for them before heading out into the cold, windy, and rainy night. Traveling home, it wasn't the easiest terrain to navigate given he had to move from one of the most populous areas in the country to his home in the Abandoned Mines. It involved many people having to be pushed out of his way and going from smooth paved roads to rocky, painstaking and difficult to see paths back to his home. But ultimately, he managed to make it home in reasonable time to catch a glimpse of his father sitting on the floor, like he often did, mediating. He often wondered why his father, and mother when she was living, was always mediating for extended periods of time and always in silence even when he was around. And he had every right to since he never did it himself nor was he given an explanation about it. Then again, he never showed any interest in it and he always kept to himself typically due to his parents "shunning" him after he was able to stand on his own two feet and talk to them. But, that would be changing tonight even if Akujin didn't know it quite yet.

No, he wouldn't know quite yet because his dad was still mediating about whatever he mediated about. But, soon it would happen. For now, the teenager just went to "his" little part of their home and threw his stuff to the floor in disgust of his poor medical work tonight on those children. He then burrowed his head into his arms and closed his eyes. He still couldn't believe that he had lost those three innocent lives by his hands, it just seemed not true at all to him, but it did happen and he would have to burden the losses on his shoulders for them and their families. It was just a shame, but he didn't have time to dwell long because his father seemed to have finished his mediation and was approaching him rather quickly. A look of concern was being show on his father's face as he came up to his son and said: "Son, I haven't ever seen you this shaken up since the loss of your mother years ago, is everything alright?"

Turning to his dad, he looked at him with tears in his eyes and replied: "Dad, three children came into the hospital tonight poisoned and bleeding heavily from lacerations on their necks. I believe they were hit in a vein in their neck by someone else...but I couldn't save them, Dad. I lost all three of them before I could save them....I feel like a failure to our family and the village...I shouldn't be a damn medical shinobi and I should've just followed in your foot--"
"Stop Akujin. You did nothing wrong. You-"
"Yes I did, Father! I killed three--"
"Akujin, you tried to save the three boys lives! You did your--"
"Dad, it's not good enough! I fail--"
"Enough! You did your best and the children are in a better place now. They are with the good Lord and He is happy with your work, calm down. You can't save everyone, Akujin. You can't change when the Lord wants to bring his children back. I know it is a hard pill to swallow, but you are a medical shinobi and you are doing your best to save people. Just remember you aren't God, you are just a mere human being in this world trying to serve our Lord. You are doing just fine, Son. Believe me, I know you are doing your best."
"But how do you know, Father? You never leave this mine-
"Because you are like me, Son. Believe it or not, I didn't use to be a hermit living in this mine with your mother. I use to be a shinobi like you are. Now, I never got into the medical stuff like you did but I did serve this country before going away from humanity to get closer to God."
"Dad, I never knew that before...I um-"
"I know, Akujin. But, now is no better time to tell you. Like you, I struggled in the academy mastering the ninja arts. And like you, I never managed to master any ninjutsu and pretty much only knew how to use my own mind and my fists. Would you like to know why, Akujin?"
"Of course, Dad."
"I knew you would say that, perfect! Well, you have to understand something about our family before I continue. Our family for generations hadn't been shinobi or anything close to it. We literally were just servants to God. But, only in recent generations did we start allowing the family to go into the ninja arts like you and I both did. And after we allowed our family to go into these arts, we started to notice that most, if not all, of our family was highly skilled in taijutsu and genjutsu, but we lacked in every other form including medical. There is a term for what our family has, it's called a shadow boxer, but don't be surprised by the name...it doesn't mean we box shadows or know how to use shadow jutsu. A shadow boxer is a shinobi who is skilled in the arts of taijutsu and genjutsu. There are many of us still alive scattered around the world, but we are slowly decreasing for reasons I don't know. But Akujin, you are a shadow boxer just like me. I'm sorry to have put this off from you for so long..."
By now, tears of happiness, and not grief, were displayed on the eyes of Akujin as he got up from his position and he hugged his father tightly. The hug was met with a hug back from his father, one that had been long overdue since the ones Akujin use to get when he was young, and a pat on the head. After their hugging ended, Akujin whipped away his tears on his face and said: "I want to learn more about this, Father. Can you teach me?"
"Yes, of course, Akujin. Let's get started, shall we? You may go first."

With that, Akujin and his father got into their fighting stances and Akujin put on his gloves that he had always used for training and dashed off towards his father. His father just stood in place as he awaited his son's moves. Akujin started with an Advanced Clone technique followed up by a Falcon punch towards his father; his dad merely stood in place moving his fists having five clones appear in front of Akujin and grabbing his son's arm to stop his taijutsu move. Smirking at his son, he flicked him in the forehead sending Akujin tumbling backwards and vanishing his clone's and his son's from the playing field. But, Akujin managed to get up and charged back at his dad again this time with the Solar Flare genjutsu, but it got used right on him blinding him and causing him to have his eyes strained by the light. He then received a punch in the gut from his dad sending him to the ground resulting in him coughing up blood and knocking the wind out of him. His father then threw some more punches at him along with some punches that Akujin assumed he was imagining but hurt equally as much causing him to fall onto to his back from his sitting position. He couldn't do this in the amount of pain he was in, his dad was too strong for him. There was no way he was going to be able to fight him back, but there was a way. He didn't know, but there was a side of him that would prove to him that he could do it.

But, at the moment his dad had picked him up by the hair and kicked him in the gut knocking him to the ground again. He needed to counter now, because his dad was coming down with a fist and quickly. Without much thinking at all, he used another Falcon Punch that met his father's fist and both fists were deadlocked momentarily before Akujin's fist won and nailed his dad in the face knocking his dad over. This allowed the teenager to get up quickly to meet eyes with his dad getting up, it seemed this fight had gotten interesting now. Both males smiled at each other as Akujin put his fist out in front of him with his dad charging at him. When the time seemed right, Akujin opened his hand that managed to have a clone appear and allow him to hide from his father. His dad nailed the clone making it poof and then started to look around for his boy, which is when Akujin played with his dad's mind making it dark and difficult to see. He then lunged at him with a fist nailing him right in the mouth and knocking his old man out. The fight was over and Akujin felt like he was going to collapse, but he managed to quickly run over to his dad and use his medical jutsu to heal up both his dad's bruises and his own. He had no idea how he managed to do some of the things he did in that fight, but he managed it seemed at least to make some of his lineage of being a shadow boxer come out. It felt good, but he would only know when his dad woke up.

So, he waited as patiently as a teenager could be until his dad woke up from their fight. Smiling at him, he said: "Well, Dad, how did I do? Did I show signs of being a Shadow Boxer?"
"Yes...yes...you certainly did. You managed to channel your genjutsu through your hands somehow so quickly and you even managed to hit harder with your taijutsu than you ever did before. I mean two fists from you and the second one definitely was a lot more powerful than the first. Of course, you have a lot of work to unlock your full potential, but you definitely showed signs of a true Shadow Boxer. I am sure you noticed you were struck by physical strikes from me along with what seemed to be illusions. That was the Mirage Strike that a shadow boxer uses, which you will learn with more practice. Mediation is also a good trait to learn since it can also help you while fighting, but it seems you managed to do that a little without evening knowing it since you got up after being knocked down by my kicks and punches. All in all, you did exceptional, Akujin. I am very proud of you and you have finally proven signs of continuing the lineage of the Shadow Boxer in our family."
"I..I..I..have no words to say. But, thank you, Father..."***

After learning his father's history of being a shinobi and his family's lineage as a Shadow Boxer, Akujin began to work vigorously on learning every single trait he could that his lineage had and trying to perfect them as much as possible. Of course, it took much time and he had to balance this work on top of his job at the hospital. Surprisingly, having to balance multiple things actually was a good challenge for the teenager as he was beginning to slowly do better in the hospital with his treatments and assistance to the hospital in general. He was still only a medic and nothing more, but more dedication could be seen from the boy along with confidence which he had been lacking growing up. For his training, he was learning slowly more and more about his lineage and with the help of his dad learning more techniques. Slowly, he was mastering them but not without a lot of failures and beatings since his dad insisted on teaching him to fight and now he wanted to make his son the best shadow boxer, and shinobi in general, that he could possibly do. The rest of his teenage years were surrounded by his job and his training, but he did have a tiny relationship with a cute, young brunette that he met on the streets one day, but he and her eventually drifted apart and that relationship ended abruptly. It was a setback for the Kanemoto teenager, but he slowly got over it and refocused all his attention back on his job and training.

The Early Adult Years:****
After managing to get through his interesting and somewhat stressful teens, Akujin had finally become an adult after what seemed like an eternity for himself with having a rough childhood and painful adolescence. It hadn't been easy for him and it wasn't going to get any easier as he grew older and would get physically problems like pains and aches along with more people going to die while he was trying to save them and family dying. But for now, everything seemingly was going well. He had nearly perfected his skills as a Shadow Boxer and he could feel a promotion coming on from the hospital to possibly becoming a chief. At only 19 years old, he felt like he was on top of the world and it seemed everything was going exactly how it should be for someone his age. But, that would all change when he left his late teens and turned into a twenty year old man. Being twenty years old, most young adults were out enjoying their lives and starting families or going on high-paying and dangerous missions for the village. On the other hand, Akujin was starting to have a down year as he was having patients die at his hands quicker than ever before and nothing seemed to be going right for him at the hospital nor at his "home" because his dad was sick and starting to get sicker and sicker. It wouldn't have been a bad thing since Akujin could just heal him medically, but he was refusing treatment and was in lots of pain and agony. It was causing Akujin's work performance to keep decreasing and made him get to the point where one of the higher-ups at the hospital released him from working duties until his personal life was under control and he could focus one-hundred percent on his patients and not worry about his father. That would've been fine, but like stated before his dad was getting sicker and practically laying on his deathbed by the time Akujin had his leave from his job.

After his leave, he stayed right beside his dad as he laid dying. He would hold his hand, hug his dad, and take care of him, but nothing was helping and Akujin was in tears watching his last parent alive dying right before his eyes. But, he had to let it happen out of respect of his dad's demand. It took almost two weeks before his dad had finally passed away due to illness, and Akujin mourned. Much like his dad did for his mother, he walked outside the mine to where his mother's grave was clearly marked by a headstone and he did exactly what his father did for his mother. That was to make a small burial spot and bury his dad in it since they didn't follow the traditional burial practices of Iwagakure. He then etched a headstone for his dad and planted it on the ground right beside his mother's and said a quick pray before heading back into his "home" of the mines.

******Now, the young Shadow Boxer was without anything in his life: no family, no friends, and a job that was practically loss due to his poor quality of work due to his now deceased father's medical condition. Everything seemed hopeless in the life of Akujin right now and the male didn't know what to do or how to handle it. He had learned while growing up and training with his dad how to mediate since it was a key tactic for his family's lineage and it was an excellent way to relax and also think about life and his faith which had been lacking since his birth. Faith had always been a struggle for him since he didn't quite understand it himself, but he did believe in the same God that his parents had even if he had been doing it blindly. If he needed anything right now, his faith would be the best choice since he had lost everything else. But, he didn't entirely know how to do that, but he was going to try somehow and hopefully figure it out.

And that is exactly what he did. Sitting in the same spot that his dad use to sit when he mediated, Akujin crossed his legs and started to mediate like his dad use to do. He attempted to release all his thoughts, stress, and relax from everything that had been happening in his life recently. A clear mind is exactly what the Kanemoto wanted and it seemed to be working for the most part, but the occasional thought would start to trickle in unfortunately. His mediation was helping however as he was starting to feel more relaxed and less stressed out and upset over everything that had been happening in his life. Still, he couldn't believe his father and mother were gone from his life already and he was left to fend for himself. But, he couldn't be entirely upset as he had nearly mastered his arts in both taijutsu and genjutsu along with nearly mastering his lineage of being a shadow boxer as well. Things could only look up from here, but still there was a lot left to fix including his job and his life in general. But, it seemed that would all have to be taken one step at a time.

The young adult was nearing the end of his mediation since he had calmed himself down and had come to realize his life at this moment. But, before he had finished an unfamiliar voice would begin to talk to him. It was a indescribable voice and it appeared out of nowhere, but he wouldn't believe the conversation they would have before this "mediation" session was over.
"Akujin, my son, do not give up on yourself! You are still a valuable human being in this world!
"What..what? Who is that? Who is talking to me? Reveal yourself to me!"
"I am the creator, Akujin. I made everything and everyone including you."
"Wha..wha..what? This is impossible...there is no way..."
"Do not be afraid, my son. This is not a mistake and you aren't dreaming, you are talking to the creator of the world."
"I am sorry...Lord. It is just hard to believe...that you are talking to me....since I never paid much attention to you that much..."
"Akujin, it is all good. You see a person is justified by works and not by faith alone. Your father and mother were both religious humans, but they didn't do much for others that followed your faith. You didn't show much faith, but you did many works to help the less fortunate and the ones that needed help when they were brought to you in the hospital."
"But, you do realize that my village believes in the "old gods" as they call them..not in you. That is why I have lived in this mine for my whole life as a hermit like my parents."
"I am aware, Akujin. I am an omnipotent and omniscient God. And Akujin, you need to beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep's clothing but inwardly are ravenous wolves."
"I understand, I believe, Lord. But, why did you come to me?"
"You've been training your mind and body for years, haven't you with all your training? Yet, you kept going to the hospital where there was a lot of strain on your body and mind with death, stressful procedures, and trying to keep your patients alive as they laid there dying, correct?"
"Well, yes Lord. I have been working really hard since I realized my family's lineage which directly would have came from you. It is a nice little fighting style, I do appreciate it. And yes, I have been putting a lot of strain on my body with the hospital because I care about their well-being and I want to help them out. I just feel bad losing life right at my own two hands, I feel like I failed them and their families..."
"Don't you remember what your father said to you? He believed in you and knew you were doing your best. He was right, Akujin. I know you were too. You can't save everyone, Akujin. That isn't how life works and you know I decide when it is ultimately time for someone to join me."
"Right, Lord. I am sorry.
"Do not be sorry, Akujin. You have done more than enough in your life so you don't need to be sorry. That is why I have come into your mediation now. I am here to reward you."
"Oh! Reward for what?"
"Your hard-work and dedication to your training and your career. But, when I give you this reward, you have to promise me that you will still follow me and not go against your faith. Also, you need to read the book which your dad has a copy of and start praying more. Agreed?"
"Uh...well this is all so sudden, but I agree, but what is going to be my reward?"
"I am going to give you the will to push yourself over any limit and unlock your full potential. It will only be a small amount of what I could do for you. But, you need to realize that you are going to receive this and it may be a little overwhelming at first. You WILL probably collapse after I do my work on you, but believe in me and have some faith, Akujin."
"I do, Lord. I am ready when you are ready to give me this..."
"Very well. It is going to benefit you in your taijutsu abilities allowing you to open up the Eight Inner Gates, or its shortened name is the Hachimon. Do not go crazy with this power though, because I trust you and know you have a bright future, so don't disappoint me. Now get prepared, Akujin. Because after I give you this little 'kick,' I am going to have to go to let you recover. You will know what to do after you wake up, and if you don't I am sure you will figure it out like you figured out your lineage during your fight with your father. Goodbye Akujin, for now."

With the last words from God being said to Akujin, a heavy fist hit the male in the chest knocking him over, opening his eyes up, and ending his mediation. A bright, blinding light then rushed towards Akujin causing the male's head to swing backwards and causing him to pass out. The twenty-year old male would be out for quite a few days recovering from his encounter with God, but he would eventually wake up with a lot of bruising and eye strain from the light. It would require almost a full week for the young adult to gain back the energy and strength to get back on his own two feet and manage to even start doing any physical activity including simply walking. But before the man even started to train again, he noticed a somewhat large marking on his chest that formed a spiraling circle. This had been formed by his agreement and gift from God, but the problem for him was exactly how did he unlock this full potential and push himself past his limit as his Lord said he would be able to? He was definitely beyond confused with how to do it, so he decided it would be best to mediate again. Maybe, just maybe, his mediation was the key to unlocking this hidden potential that he had.

So, closing his eyes and getting into his sitting position, he began to mediate again clearing his mind of everything including his frustration and confusion over how to use this new power as his Lord called the Hachimon. It just didn't make any sense why God would give him these special powers over everyone else since Akujin wasn't exactly the most religious or best follower of his religion. Still, the adult did help out a lot of people in the hospital and saw many deaths occur including: the three children who died from lacerations and poisoning along with his own father's. Maybe, the good Lord was rewarding his "shepherd" for all the hard-work and struggles he had dealt with in his life and actually giving him a little boost of confidence and strength to keep going after another death in his life. But, it still didn't solve how to unlock it, but he couldn't give up.

Ending his mediation, he got up and started to train again on the practice dummies that were installed in the mine for him by his parents. It was a typical training of punches and kicks that would hit their marks as always since he perfected his arts through the years. But, he wanted more and needed more so he continued to punch and kick away at the dummies with each blow making his body begin to ache more and more. It felt like he was still the same Akujin that he was before his encounter and his anger was starting to get the better of him so he started to put more authority behind his kicks and punches that were causing the dummies to not really be affected much more than they already had been. He would continue to throw kicks and punches until one blow knocked him right onto his bottom and made his anger boil over. He would get up looking at his skin that appeared to have gotten darker and feeling a little burning sensation from his chest, but he would press on towards the dummies and with these next few blows made the dummies break into pieces and fly everywhere. That was definitely something that Akujin never managed to do before and his speed and strength had managed to drastically increase for that short period of time before being reverted back to normal.

"Did I just use some of the Hachimon? I think I did, and it felt good. But, anger can't be the reasoning behind why I got stronger and faster. Hmm...it must've been when I was knocked to the ground because of exhaustion. It is probably best if I use it only when I need to since that put a lot of strain on my body and I feel even worse than when I was given it. Ugh! Well, at least God and I both know it did work as I am sure he saw my training up there. Yes, good. Well, I think I will call it a night after that...I am really exhausted..." thought Akujin as he would head off to his bed in the corner and cover up to go to bed and hopefully allow his body to rest and recover from using some of the Hachimon.

The Present:
After a very tragic and interesting early adulthood, the Shadow Boxer was now twenty one years old and by now had perfected his taijutsu and genjutsu abilities to compliment his family lineage. He felt like he had finally truly accomplished something for his life and for his family perfecting these arts at a decent rate of speed after just finding out about them when he was a teenager. It all was working out and he was learning slowly but steadily how to use the Hachimon skills that God had given him, he was up to using four of the gates without any struggle, but anything past opening four of them and he was still becoming very fatigued and putting a lot of strain on his body, but he knew he would get it eventually if the good Lord wanted him to have these skills.

Speaking of God, Akujin followed the orders of the Lord and started to read the book following in his father's footsteps and becoming a monk. He started to practice religious asceticism while focusing on his career in the medical field too. On a side note, Akujin also started to try to use and master one form of ninjutsu: lightning. This side job was only to try to see if he could push the limit in his learning and master a ninjutsu and be the first one in his family to ever master one. It wasn't working out too well for him thus far, but he wasn't going to give up because if he would've gave up, then he wouldn't have ever became what he was today. Of course, he was trying to do the near impossible since he had done terrible in the academy in ninjutsu. But, only time would tell if the man could master this art and add it to his arsenal or not. He was still going to train his mind and body like always, but he was keeping himself more closed than he had in the past and avoiding conflicts as much as possible. Also, he was focusing more on his faith and trying to become closer to God than he ever had been before.

There would definitely be more to come as the Kanemoto man grew up more...
