Chapter 1: Monster

Village Hidden In The Leaves

Haruna Residence

The village was in turmoil as ninjas hurried back and forth, desperately trying to find the murderer of the Haruno family. The family of three had been discovered lifeless, each surrounded by pools of their own blood, their bodies marked with deep wounds, revealing the brutal torture they endured before being ruthlessly killed.

"How could this be possible?" Ino Yamanaka, Sakura Haruno's childhood friend and rival, sobbed in her mother's embrace.

"I'm not sure, dear, but the murderer won't escape justice," the older woman remarked, equally stunned by the sheer violence of the killings.

Within the Haruno household, Inoichi Yamanaka, accompanied by several other ninjas, was examining the scene of the murders. His expression was somber and troubled as he looked at the disfigured bodies of the Haruno family.

Kizashi Haruno showed clear signs of brutal violence, with noticeable injuries on his face and body. He had suffered extreme trauma, including the horrifying mutilation of his genitals, which were forcefully inserted into his mouth. Additionally, he bore multiple incisions across his body, likely inflicted by a sharp weapon or wind-based chakra.

Mebuki Haruno was in no better shape; she too was beaten, with most of her teeth bashed out of her mouth and a broken jaw, while her arms and legs were tied together to keep her crotch exposed. From what Inoichi could see, the killer used something sharp to shove in and out of Mebuki's pussy, as indicated by the blood he saw between her legs. She was also covered in cuts.

Sakura appeared to have suffered the most among the Haruna family; her body was so badly damaged that she was hardly recognizable. The only feature that allowed them to identify her was her distinctive pink hair, a rare color in Konaha.

Sakura's limbs were shattered and twisted in unnatural positions, her tongue was severed and positioned beside her head, and her abdomen was slashed open with her intestines drawn out and coiled around her neck to suffocate her. It appears the murderer intended for her to be vulnerable and to suffer as she succumbed to strangulation.

A group of people assembled outside a house, where a specific blonde boy with whisker-like markings observed the turmoil with an expressionless demeanor. However, upon closer inspection, one could notice a subtle smirk playing on his lips.

A sinister voice echoed in the blonde boy's mind, chuckling menacingly, "You've really surpassed yourself this time, Naruto. Congratulations, my captor."

"I didn't do this for your admiration; they deserved it," Naruto thought to himself, frowning as he turned away from the situation.

The Haruna family was among those in the village who made his life miserable. Sakura frequently mocked and physically assaulted him, while Mebuki, who was part of the civilian council, actively shared his status as a Jinchuriki with others. Additionally, Kizashi, the head of the village vendors' association, and his associates took it upon themselves to sell him outdated and expired goods at exorbitant prices, occasionally even poisoning the food he purchased. It was only due to Kurama that he managed to survive.

Uchiha Clan District

"Ugh, the killer has struck once more," Ibiki Morino, Konoha's chief interrogator, said with frustration while standing alongside Anko and Inoichi at the home of the latest victim.

The individual who suffered was Sasuke Uchiha, the sole survivor of the Uchiha clan, aside from his treacherous brother who was responsible for the massacre of their entire family. The last of the Uchiha appeared to have attempted to defend himself against the assailant, but ultimately he was overpowered and received the same brutal treatment as the rest of his clan.

Sasuke's eyes were taken out and turned to mush alongside his charred body; it appeared that he was still alive during the removal process before being set on fire until his death.

"Wow, the person responsible for this must have had a deep-seated animosity toward the kid," Anko remarked, examining Sasuke's lifeless body with intrigue at the brutal manner of his demise.

"You've always been blunt, Anko, but this is serious. We need to apprehend whoever is behind this before they make another move," Ibiki said, his expression a mix of fear and resolve.

Inoichi paid no attention to the playful banter between Anko and Ibiki, who was clearly irritated by her teasing. Instead, he concentrated on uncovering a lead that could assist him in locating the killer, pondering the connection between Sasuke and the Haruna family.

"We're overlooking something," Inoichi remarked, capturing the attention of Anko and Ibiki. "I highly suspect these murders aren't coincidental; this individual harbors a deep-seated hatred. I believe they have a history of killing. We need to reassess the situation and approach it from a different perspective."

"Perhaps you're correct," Ibiki conceded, feeling uncertain since the perpetrator left no clues behind. It was likely the work of a skilled individual. "This person has certainly committed murder before; perhaps they are a ninja."

"You two are really reading too much into this," Anko said casually, glancing at the murderer who seemed to kill without reason. "It's likely just a ninja who lost it and is dealing with some pressure."

Ibiki and Inoichi maintained a calm expression as they listened to Anko's remarks. She had a point; while it wasn't typical, ninjas could indeed break under the immense stress of their lifestyle. However, such instances are usually addressed before any harm can occur. Typically, the affected individual would either have their memories erased and be reintegrated into the village or have their chakra sealed and be retired. In the rare cases where intervention fails, it often results in the execution of the ninja involved.

None of the individuals there noticed the blonde-haired boy as he walked by, observing the situation outside Sasuke's house.

In a somber tone, a village woman expressed her shock over the death of the last Uchiha clan member, questioning how such a tragedy could occur. However, it was clear that her primary concern was not the loss itself but rather the implications for her daughter’s future, hoping to secure a marriage or child with the deceased to gain access to the Uchiha clan's wealth.

It would take a considerable amount of time for a group of medical ninjas to remove the body of the final Uchiha in a body bag. Meanwhile, several women from the village were crying, while the men shouted at the ninjas responsible for the investigation, demanding they work harder to identify the murderer.

The blonde-haired boy observed Inoichi, Ibiki, and Anko leaving last, intrigued. The blonde man reminded him of one of his bothersome classmates, and a thought popped into the whiskered boy's head, prompting a broad smile to spread across his face.

Hokage Tower [Criminal Record Room]

Inoichi exclaimed in shock, "How did we overlook this?" as he stared at the reports detailing the deaths of more than 50 individuals who had perished in ways strikingly similar to those of the Haruna family and Sasuke.

"Oh, that's simple," Anko replied, lacking her typical arrogance. "It's likely that these individuals came from the red-light district; they were probably pimps, prostitutes, thieves, or any kind of lowlifes that most people wouldn't care about if they were to die."

"Yet, even if no one was concerned about their deaths, why did it not raise any eyebrows that so many individuals perished so tragically in such a brief period?" Inoichi pondered, perplexed by the lack of investigation into the numerous deaths. He had also come across reports of missing people that seemed to have been ignored.

"Individuals in the red light district often meet untimely ends, but I must admit I'm somewhat taken aback by the sheer number this time," Ibiki commented as he examined the file of a woman who had been brutally mutilated with wind chakra. The terrified man recognized the distinct clarity of the cuts. He picked up another file and discovered something unusual. "It seems that whoever committed these acts was honing their skills in wind chakra on their victims."

The three examined the documents, and according to the information, it was accurate that the initial victims had superficial wounds on their bodies. As the murderer improved their skill in wind manipulation, the injuries became deeper and more precise over time.

"At least we have established that we're searching for someone who possesses wind nature chakra," Anko remarked, still taken aback that anyone would exploit individuals for practicing elemental manipulation.

"We need to apprehend whoever is responsible for this," Inoichi declared with resolve, his gaze fixed on the victims, some of whom were as young as his own daughter. The murderer showed no regard for age or gender, committing heinous acts without remorse. "This individual is a true monster devoid of any conscience."

"I concur," Ibiki responded, having witnessed numerous atrocities and endured the harshness of life himself, as evidenced by his scarred face and head. However, this individual was twisted; they thrived on the suffering of others, and he understood that they would not cease their actions unless they were restrained or eliminated.

"However, we still lack any concrete information," Anko remarked, noting that all they had discovered was the individual's connection to wind nature, without any details regarding their age, gender, or any identifying characteristics.

"No, we've just discovered that this individual has been committing murders in the red light district for a while. It's possible that someone in that area has witnessed the perpetrator without realizing it," Inoichi said optimistically, aware that it was a long shot, but he believed someone had to have seen the killer.

"I don't think so. Someone as clever as him wouldn't allow a prostitute or a pimp to catch sight of him, and even if they did, they'd recognize him as a killer," Ibiki stated, expressing his skepticism about relying on the residents of the red light district to speak up, as it could put them in danger.

Yamanaka's Residence

Inoichi knelt in horror, witnessing a scene that seemed pulled from his worst nightmares. His wife and child were lifeless before him, their bodies mutilated and their severed heads placed ominously on the countertop.

The leader of the Yamanaka clan was overwhelmed with grief, unable to hold back his vomit as tears streamed down his face. Ibiki and Anko exchanged glances filled with sympathy as they watched the man mourn the loss of his family.

"Ibiki, you have to tell me this is just a dream," Inoichi pleaded, gazing at the head of the interrogation department. "This has to be a nightmare, right? I’ll wake up any moment, and everything will be fine with my family."

Ibiki remained silent but placed a reassuring hand on Inoichi's shoulder, offering his support. It was the best he could do in that moment. He firmly believed that the recent assault by the killer was not a coincidence; it seemed that Inoichi was specifically targeted, likely because they were on the verge of uncovering the perpetrator's identity.

Inoichi mourned deeply for his loss, staying on his knees in the same spot as his family's remains were removed from the house, gazing vacantly into the distance with lifeless eyes.

Ibiki shook his head while observing the man, as Anko had already departed to search for any clues regarding the murderer in the area; someone might have witnessed something.

"This was a deliberate assault, Inoichi," Ibiki remarked, drawing the blonde man's focus. "I believe the murderer is aware that we're searching for him, and he orchestrated this to unsettle you."

"It's my responsibility," Inoichi admitted, coming to the painful conclusion that the murderer had gone after his family solely because he was searching for his own identity. "I was the one who caused my family's death."

SLAP

"No, Inoichi, you're not to blame for their deaths; they were killed by a madman," Ibiki said assertively, giving Inoichi a hard slap to pull him out of his sorrow. "Take some time to clear your head and return when you're ready. If you need more time, I completely understand."

Ibiki was aware that he was being unfair to Inoichi, who couldn't just move past this incident—after all, no rational person would be able to. He let out a sigh, recognizing that Inoichi was removed from the case, which meant losing one of their top investigators. Perhaps that was exactly what the murderer had intended. However, Ibiki felt powerless to assist Inoichi in overcoming his sorrow and anguish.
