Konan sat on the floor, looking at the items that were summoned from the scroll with tears brimming in his eyes- the Hokage Hiruzen Sarutobi, his adopted father as of his death lhad left him a set of items; Ninjutsu scrolls, a set of high level training weights, chakra pills, scrolls of forbidden and secret ninjutsu techniques from across the nations, a summoning scroll for King Enma which was Hiruzen's summon and finally the staff he always wielded.
Konan looked at these items, smirking as he held the staff firmly and spun it a few times to get a good feel of it, looking through the items as he began to read through the scrolls to just get a look and feel for all the jutsu hidden inside them- each one was amazing but seemed extremely complex and would take him a while to learn; he put all the books back into the scroll and carried the summoning scrolls for the items and King Enma into his room and put them in a secure place, going back to carry the weights over next whilst keeping the staff and chakra pills where they were, after everything had been put in a secure place- Konan attached the staff to the back of his belt and put the chakra pills into his ninja pouch on his leg and headed out towards the blacksmith.
It had been over a month since he visited and hopefully all the items had been gathered and the order was complete, he headed inside and saw the smith sat at his desk by the front door- immediately standing and walking towards him;
Smith; " hoho boy, I knew you'd be here eventually, you've got good timing aswell- it did take a while but I've finished your order just the other day "
Konan; " That's great news, I can't wait to see it "
The smith nodded, heading to the back and carrying out a mahogany and ivory box, it was a detailed and highly expensive storage method but ivory kept chakra from leaking out of ninja tools when special effects were applied to them- the smith put the box on the desk and stepped away, allowing Konan to move forward and unlatch the lock, sliding the box open as he smiled and looked down at the weapon he had designed come to life.
It was perfect, he slipped the glove on as it had perfect support for his hands as he flexed both gloves and smiled at the blacksmith for approval to activate it's effect as the smith nodded instantly, Konan grinned and started to flow chakra into the metal ball points on the gloves as the metal started to react and form into sharp claws that covered each finger and thumb before solidifying and finalising the formation- the claws allowed him to scratch and attack like a feline which was perfect for his style, he thanked the blacksmith before retracting the claws and heading out since they were prepaid.
He headed out towards a training field, alone and quiet. He stood across from a training dummy and unclipped the staff from his back- pouring chakra into it as it became longer and thinner, like a bo-staff instead of it's tree trunk like usual form; Konan swung it around his head, it was light but sturdy so a good crowd control weapon to easy to make him lose his balance in a one on one.
Konan trained for a couple hours until night fall, swinging the staff and finding ways to apply his different techniques into one, he find the perfect combo where he would use his gravity ninjutsu to make the pole heavier and plant it into the ground acting like a support beam or stripper pole before attaching onto it with his legs or hands before switching grips and allowing him to swing around it and land hits, alternatively he also found it fun to use the staff's speed in it's thinner form and swing it around before increasing it's size just before the hit to make it feel like he hit the target with a tree.
After Konan was satisfied with his training, he headed back towards the village and decided to stop by the hospital to visit his brother who was still recovering from his injuries caused by Gaara. Eventually, he reached the right place and headed inside to go see Sasuke, heading directly to his room as he slipped inside and shut the door- his brother was sat there staring out the window as Konan walked over and sat beside him;
Sasuke; " I saw you walking in, I assume you've healed from the grief "
Konan; " No never, grief isn't something you can grow out of- you'll always have it with you but turning it into the power to fight is when you grow "
Sasuke; " You've experienced so much, that hatred you keep inside is what makes you strong huh? "
Konan; " No, my power doesn't come from hatred- it's fueled by it but it's not the source, I don't fight because I hate the person in front of me, I fight because I hate seeing the people I care about get hurt, I fight because I want to see my family and friends grow old, Even if I keep fighting until I die, I will stand with my weapon in hand and fight for the people I have left and for the memories of the people that left. Understand? "
Sasuke; " I do... I want to get stronger, a lot stronger to avenge our clan and to make sure the kids of this village in the future know that the Uchiha clan did exist. "
Konan; " That's good, I will support your choices even if you make stupid ones- if you become a criminal, I will defend your actions; I know you'll always do the right thing and if not then I'll drag you back here with my own hands and make you apologise in front of the clan's graves got it? "
Sasuke; " Yeah thanks Ko, I will get stronger and hopefully I'll be the one helping you "
Konan ruffled Sasuke's hair and laughed, he was only a month or so older but he was a big brother through and through, he would protect Sasuke to the end- he opened his jacket and took a scroll out.
Konan; " This was a message from the Hokage, I'm going to read it to you so trust me on this one "
Sasuke nodded and let his brother speak, listening patiently;
Konan; " The Hokage has wrote that Itachi is working to captured the Nine tailed fox, apparently he was spotted near the village during the chunin exams with another criminal and were overheard by anbu who tailed them, they should be going after Naruto as we speak and may ambush him with Jiraiya but hopefully they'll be ok- "
He didn't get to continue as he watched Sasuke jump from the window and run out the village to go after Itachi, Konan sighed and looked at the rest of the note; he decided he'd keep it a secret from Sasuke and make it his duty to deal with this part- He read the rest of the note; The note spoke on how a man called Danzo Shimura, an elder in the village, stole sharingan from the uchiha clans graves and had help implanting them in his arm and eye- he apparently had the eyes of Shisui Uchiha and taking them and implanting them successfully would give one of them the Eternal Mangekyo sharingan.
Konan had his next target, he would assassinate Danzo before Sasuke could kill him and take the eyes of Shisui, once he did this we would implant them with the village's help and use the knowledge to give Sasuke the eyes of Itachi, his plan was simple but he needed to plan it carefully as not to be branded a criminal by the village- he needed to just lock eyes with Danzo once and use his sharingan to murder him without anyone knowing, he went home through the same window Sasuke jumped from so he could plan the Assassination of the one who is obsessed with the Uchiha.
