The name’s Akari Sarutobi... yes, that Sarutobi. I'm the daughter of the Third Hokage.

I wasn’t born here… not originally. But, I was born a second time into this world near the end of the Second Shinobi War with a famous surname and a fire in my veins. From that day, I knew one thing: power is earned, and I was going to earn all of it. My little… gift lets me master elemental jutsu faster than anyone alive, and even create elemental Kekkei Genkai, if I’m willing to grind away the hours.

So, I played the long game. I showed just enough skill and intelligence for my father to promote me to jōnin at thirteen, but not enough to tip my full hand. I waited. I trained. I prepared.

Now, at fifteen, with my first, hand-picked genin team under my command and the Third Shinobi War on the horizon, it’s time to stop hiding. It is time to carve my name into history and shake the Shinobi World to its core.

Just to let you know, I'll be taking a break until New Years. The next chapter is done, but I'd be force to leave you on a cliffhanger. I've got a poll going on my other site, so I'll ask here too:


Would you like the min-arc altogether, or 1 chapter a week after the new year?
