Journey To The True Martial World

Shinobi forces spent the next week cleaning up the remains of the White Zetsu Army. In the Myriad realm, only the people that Seiichi planned to take with him were there, silently cultivating. With the pills found in the Sejikin ruins and the pills concocted by Seiichi. The group was quickly opening their meridians and rising in strength.

Seiichi on the other hand, now stood on the other side of the world with Rock Lee and Sakura. With Seiichi's early arrival the two didn't have time to prepare anything on the scale of continental espionage. The Trio, however, still managed to gather beneficial information.

In the capital City of the Earth Kingdom, Ba Sing Se. The trio strolled through the market purchasing clothes to blend in with the locals and hunting down information brokers. They had found out that the nations were in the midst of a one-hundred-year war, but the avatar had finally returned. But his return meant nothing for the Earth kingdom, as they had still fallen to the Fire Nation a week before Seiichi's arrival. The trio continued to gather information for the first couple of days and attracted the attention of the local government agency known as the Dai Li.

"Seiichi, we are being followed" Lee spoke in a low tone

"I know, let them follow us and then let them catch us if they want to. This place is under the control of the Fire Nation Princess Azula. If were caught, that's our way to get an audience with her." Seiichi replied, while looking at the little trinkets on display in the market.

'Why don't we just take the kingdom for ourselves, and then handle the Avatar kid.?" Sakura asked

"Hmm, the fire nation is tyrannical to say the least and I like that. So, I'll help them, and I also don't want to be known. I came here for a few things and when I get them, I plan on leaving with the world being none the wiser. How about the two of you just go enjoy yourselves while I work."

Seiichi had a couple of ways to do things, but he wanted the route of least resistance. If the Spirit King title was held by the spirit in the avatar, then things could get dicey if Seiichi went wasn't careful. No matter the physical strength of a person, if their soul gets destroyed, it's game over.

Rock Lee looked at Sakura with a twinkle in his eye, then bowed to Seiichi before taking Sakura and venturing off in a hurry.

"Ha-ha, well okay then" Seiichi chuckled, looking around, he had decided to walk to the higher class district and get his plan together. Arriving at a small restaurant, Seiichi ordered a few dishes and some tea to help him mull over his thoughts. He also enjoyed his time as there a few dishes Seiichi was more than curious about, for example, Giant snake soup and Snake Wine.

Enjoying his meal in peace, Seiichi thought about many possible ways to achieve the most benefits with the highest level of efficiency. He found himself hitting a wall over and over again, simply due to the existence of one man, Hagoromo Otsutsuki.

After Killing the spirits Vaatu and Raava, Hagoromo would take the throne and that's where the uncertainty lied. What kind of power will that old bat get, if he ascended the Spirit King's throne? The last problem came from the d.e.s.i.r.e to hunt other spirit beings, to refine them as a method of strengthening the soul. If Hagoromo used that as an excuse to strike, before Seiichi was ready, things would end a less desirable fashion.

Taking a large gulp of his Snake Wine and rose his table. Stepping outside, Seiichi's head fell back, and he took a look at the night sky. Riddle with stars and complimented by the lunar luminescent, it was perfect. 'A perfect night to get kidnapped' Seiichi thought, that is until he went looking for an inn to stay at and the Dai Li agent stopped following him.

Pushing off the ground Seiichi hovered over the city, "Where are all of you going in such a hurry"

Seiichi followed the fast-moving Dai Li; they just weren't fast enough to lose Seiichi. Arriving at a secret entrance that led somewhere deep under the ground, Seiichi followed them in. A few miles in the Dai Li lead Seiichi to what looked like old town ruins that had been built over.

They sound of battle were present as a scared faced boy and a young lady slung torrent of red and blue flames at their enemy's. Their enemy is what grabbed Seiichi's attention, He was a small bald head boy with a blue arrow tattooed on his head. He controlled streams of air, created waves of water, and rode on mounds of earth. Seiichi would bet a million that the boy was the avatar.

Backed into a corner by the arrival of a mass of Dai Li agents, the young avatar pulled up a crystal dome from the earth and… sat down. Seiichi found his action rather odd, until he felt a heavy flux of spiritual energy.

The crystal dome exploded, and a beam of baby light erupted from the boy, Seiichi assumed the energy belong to the Spirit Raava inside of him. Slowly rising into the air, Seiichi couldn't understand why no one just killed the guy while he in the process of transforming. Then it happened, the young fire bending lady hurled a bolt of lightning at the avatar striking him down.

"Hmm, I like her, she's a go getter." Seiichi muttered in amus.e.m.e.nt while stepping out of the passage, Seiichi was intending to go collect until a brown skinned water bending girl caught the avatar midair and escaped. Activating a movement technique, Seiichi followed them. Attempting to flee on a big six-legged bison, they were stopped by Seiichi.

Without a single word, Seiichi activated his dojutsu and pulled the young water bending girl into a Genjutsu.

Seiichi's hand turned white hot, forming a knife hand, he stabbed it straight into the c.h.e.s.t of the young men. Like a vacuum, the spirit Raava was pulled to Seiichi's palm and ripped from the avatar. Seiichi's eyes swirled again performed the Rinne Rebirth to revive the young man.

"We're even now kid…" Seiichi vanished after that, returning to the Myriad Realm to refine Raava. The moment Seiichi grasped Raava in his palm. She was ensnared by Fuinjutsu saturated in Seiichi's chakra to keep her suppressed. The power of Raava rose Seiichi's soul strengthened by leaps and bonds. But the moment Raava was killed, in the outside world, Hell was rising to earth.

According to Hagoromo's words, Vaatu can be considered the embodiment of everything dark and evil. While Raava, is the embodiment of everything good and pure in this world. Because of this Raava sealed Vaatu away, but now that Raava is gone, Vaatu and his influence affected the world like no other.

Before Seiichi left the Myriad Realm, he retrieved Rock Lee and Sakura, the two of them along with Akira, Karin, Hinata, Naruto, Pakura, Yakumo, And Orochimaru were given a soul refining techniques to prepare them for the refining of the Spirit.

"Hey Ino, you ready to go?" Seiichi asked

"Of course, I've never been in the spirit world before. But, what if that Hagoromo guy double crosses us?" She asked, while putting on her backpack full of provisions.

"Then we kill him, obviously" Seiichi replied

"Yeah, but if we get to that point, shouldn't one of us refine the guy to make us stronger?"

Seiichi looked over at Orochimaru and Naruto, following his eyes, Ino realized Seiichi had already thought that far.

With a prideful smirk, Seiichi offers his hand to Ino. The moment she grabs it the two vanish. Leaving the Myriad realm.
