Amai Uchiha

Amai Uchiha is the son of Boruto Uzumaki and Sarada Uchiha, and carries the Hyuga, Uchiha, and Uzumaki clan genes in his blood. Being the grandson of Naruto Uzumaki and the son of Sarada Uchiha, he is an heir of a renowned family of hokages.

## Personality

Amai Uchiha is quiet, disciplined, and tactical. This is well shown when he spends hours in the early morning practicing his kunai throwing, which noticeably surprised Boruto. He is very observant and careful, and takes everything seriously, to the point he can be considered paranoid. Though they have their quarrels, his brother Karuto greatly respects him for his knowledge and dedication. Amai also feels very threatened and gets defensive and suspicious around Doku due to her unusual behavior.

## Abilities

He is very observant, and appears to have the ability to "sense presences" even without the use of dojutsu. He is respected by everyone around him for his honest work in honing his skills.

### Dojutsu

Amai has access to the one-tomoe sharingan, which gives him the ability to copy jutsu, predict movements, cast genjutsu, and aim his jutsu and weapon-throwing better.

### Ninjutsu

Being a Uchiha, Amai has mastery of the Fire Style: Fireball Jutsu, which he uses quite frequently. He can also create shadow clones, which is known to require a lot of chakra control.

### Bukijutsu

Amai has the Uchiha trait of being very good at handling weapons, especially kunai throwing.

## New Generation

### Academy Training Arc

When Boruto walked outside early in the morning, he saw Amai practicing his kunai throwing in the backyard. While he expresses his pride in his son, he tells Amai to get some sleep so he wakes up fresh. When they walk to school together, Amai senses a person behind them, and gets very suspicious when they reveal themselves. He gets irritated when Boruto talks to her and they walk to school together. He stays behind the two, being careful about Doku. When they are at the academy, he gets even more annoyed when Doku doesn't talk about herself or her background, thinking that she's trying to hide something. He yells at Doku, who responds by holding a lightning-infused sword to his neck, but she finds out it's just a shadow clone. He then uses Fire Style: Fireball Jutsu at her, and she responds with Water Style: Sea Snake Barrage, which overpowers Amai. Iwabee breaks up the fighting, and makes them both apologize, and they do, albeit grudgingly.

Later, Iwabee sends them home, but not before telling them to practice their shadow clones. To Amai’s annoyance, Karuto walks home with Doku again, but once they reach their house, Amai tells Karuto that Doku’s been acting extremely suspicious, and he thinks that she might be a threat to the academy. To Amai’s surprise, Karuto agrees, stating that Doku hasn’t shared anything about herself. Amai then explains that during their skirmish, he put a tracker on her. He says that since tomorrow is Village Unity Celebration Day and they don’t have school, they can spend the entire day finding out what Doku is up to. On the morning of the next day, Karuto and Amai tell their parents that they’re going outside to practice their jutsu. Boruto and Sarada tell them to be back for dinner, and they’re off. Amai explains that the tracker connects to a display, which he has with him, to show where the target is. He also explains that the tracker is so small, not even dojutsu can sense it. He goes to Doku’s first seen location, near Senju Park. There, the two see Doku practicing her jutsu in the forest. Amai asks her what she’s doing, and she explains that she’s perfecting her newly created jutsu, Lightning Style: Viper Strike. Amai asks her why she’s able to use two nature transformations, and she says that she’s just incredibly skilled in ninjutsu. This angers Amai, who tells her that she’s just dangerous. She shrugs and walks away, and Karuto tells Amai that they shouldn’t approach her unless absolutely necessary, and that they should keep a far eye. Amai agrees, and they head over to Cheez’s Hot Pizza for lunch. Amai’s eye starts hurting in the middle of lunch, and when he takes his hand off it, Karuto tells Amai that due to his fear of Doku, he’s unlocked the Sharingan. Amai shows obvious happiness at this feat, but also believes that this will help him find out more about Doku. Karuto is happy to see Amai enjoying his pizza, and asks him when he thinks they will become genin. Once they finish their food, they notice Doku is near the outskirts of Konoha, near a forest. The two eventually find her, and climb up in the trees above. However, Doku senses them with her dojutsu, which shocks Amai. Surprised, he jumps down with a kunai in his hand, and Karuto and one of his shadow clones follow. Doku takes out her sword and points it at Amai, who asks her who she’s a spy for. She claims that she isn’t a spy, and tells Karuto, who’s behind her with a kunai at her neck, that she can see him. Amai asks her where she lives, and suddenly Karuto senses something rapidly approaching out of the ground. He warns Amai, and the two move out of the way before wood comes out of the earth. Amai is horrified that Doku has the first hokage’s kekkei genkai, and asks her what she is. However, she senses Karuto attacking her with her dojutsu, and blocks it. However, it’s a trap, and Amai uses the opening to cast a genjutsu with his sharingan. Doku then wakes up in a secret room down in the subway, where she finds out she is restrained by metal wire. As they start asking her questions, she sees something behind them, and when it gets closer, she realizes that the two mercenaries are coming straight for them.

The bigger one seems impressed that there’s a Uchiha, and he introduces himself as Mujona. The smaller one says that he’s Zankoku, and explains that years ago, they were Konoha shinobi, and due to a mission where they had to sacrifice their teammate to succeed, they became shunned by their village. They then became assassins-for-hire, and believe that by kidnapping the Hokage’s grandchildren, they will get the money and notoriety to start up again. They then tell Doku she’s free to go, but she refuses to, and stays there to protect the two. Mujona draws his sword, and he and Doku start swordfighting. Meanwhile, Zankoku comes from behind and uses Earth Style: Tiger Cage to trap the two in a very small mud-brick cage. However, Amai moves out of the way, leaving Karuto trapped. Zankoku explains that very few jutsu can break the cage, save for water style and extremely powerful ones. Amai promises to rescue Karuto, and activates his sharingan. He then throws multiple shuriken at Zankoku, who uses Earth Style: Mud Wall to block it. Zankoku then climbs on top of the wall and holds up many paper bombs, telling Amai that it’s over. Zankoku uses Earth Style: Moving Explosives to surround Amai’s legs and Karuto’s cage. Amai then uses Fire Style: Fireball Jutsu on his legs, detonating them. Karuto warns him that it’ll kill both of them, but the explosions are seemingly harmless to him. The seemingly invincible Amai then runs up to Zankoku and slits his throat with a kunai, killing him. Karuto seems confused, and Amai explains that he used Gyaku Sakkaku, a genjutsu that instead of manipulating the surroundings, manipulates the user so that they can add, remove, or modify anything existing in the seemingly normal world. Due to Zankoku falling, the Earth Style cage opens up and releases Karuto, and the paper tags don’t activate. Mujona notices Zankoku’s dead body, and vows to get revenge. He then explains that his next attack will kill all three of them at the same time. Mujona shifts to his Triple Blade Technique stance, and starts infusing his blades with chakra. Karuto asks Amai what’s going on, but notices that Amai’s using his Sharingan. He also sees Doku using her dojutsu, and he turns on his Byakugan too. He then sees a monstrous amount of chakra being built up in the swords, and realizes that even a high-level jonin would be instantly killed by a move like that. Doku uses Wood Style: Tree Wall Barrier to block them, but is shocked that Mujona cuts through like “ribbons.” Amai asks Doku for her sword, and she reluctantly gives it to him, stating that it’s “suicide” to face Mujona in this state. However, Amai activates his sharingan, which allows Amai to run at him, The two clash swords, and Amai ducks in time to avoid his other sword. Amai takes out a kunai, which Mujona blocks, and uses the opening to attack with Doku’s sword. However, Mujona uses the sword in his mouth to counter, breaking Doku’s sword into two and rendering it useless. Just as he is about to kill Amai, Karuto throws a kunai at Mujona. However, he isn’t fazed, and uses the Guillotine Technique to kill Amai. However, he realizes that it’s just substitution, but it’s covered in paper bombs. Amai then uses Fireball Jutsu to detonate the bombs, but Mujona escapes. Karuto then uses Gentle Fist to cut his chakra, and Doku uses wood style to form many trees which pin him down. Amai then uses Fireball Jutsu to burn the trees down, killing Mujona. Amai then apologizes to Doku, noting that even though she could’ve gotten away, she stayed and tried to protect them. Doku then states that it’d be for the best if she shared her story, and warns them to get ready.
