-Story Start-

-Akira POV-

Following everyone's acceptance of my Kekkei Genkai, Ino and Choji rapidly questioned me about the specifics of it, especially Jeff himself.

I responded as vaguely as possible, disappointing both of them that I was hiding details.

Choji in the middle of it seemed to have an Eureka moment and managed to piece together what the purpose of all my nightly "Secret Nara Training" was all about.

The adults didn't care too much to try and question me, so they opted to let Choji and Ino probe me, it would seem.

Then again, whilst I was interrogated by the excited duo of Choji and Ino who continued to insinuate that I cheated in my spars with Sasuke. The last generation's trio of Ino-Shika-Cho were currently with furrowed brows, deep in a conversation, which is easily inferable to be related to me.

I had no idea what they were talking about, but the political implications of what just happened and will continue in the near future were not lost to me.

It would be a lie to say I am not anxious despite preparing myself for the possible implications of it.

Support of friends and family not forgotten.

But, I believe taking the Nara route in this situation would be ideal.

What is the Nara Route?

Don't worry about it!

Let Uncle handle it!

Hasn't failed me thus far...

"Can you summon anything else, Akira?!" Choji's excitement reverberated as he perched atop Jeff's head.

I responded with a stoic nod, maintaining my deadpan expression even as Jeff allowed Choji to comfortably sit on his head—a luxury not extended to me, as evidenced by the memory of Jeff's tongue-induced discomfort.

Ino gave me a look at my response, at which I shrugged casually, stating, "It wouldn't be much of an impressive Kekkei Genkai if I could only summon that goofy thing—OUCH!" I winced as Jeff's tongue met my cheek in response to my straightforward remark.

Almost bursting out in laughter, Ino collected herself to ask, genuinely curious, "Does it have a name? Your Kekkei Genkai I mean. Don't they have to be registered or something?"

Before I could answer, it seemed the Adults were done talking and Uncle answered Ino's question for her as he approached our little group.

"Yes, dealing with bureaucracy is quite the drag, but indeed, his Kekkei Genkai has a name that will be officially registered," Uncle affirmed, approaching our little group and playfully ruffling my hair with a wry smile.

With a concluding statement to wrap up the "show," Uncle declared, "I hereby unveil to you, our enduring allies, the Akimichi and Yamanaka, as well as our cherished friends and family, the revelation of the first bearer of the "Eight Shadows" Kekkei Genkai!" He raised my arm with noticeable enthusiasm.
