Osamu Uzumaki

修うずまき Uzumaki Osamu

**Osamu Uzumaki** (修うずまき, *Uzumaki Osamu*) is a Jōnin-ranked shinobi of Sunagakure's Uzumaki Clan and the current Jinchūriki for the Seven Tails. Osamu became a Jinchūriki at a young age, as most of them tend to do and the Tailed Beast was sealed into him by his own grandparent, a highly respected Jōnin of Sunagakure.

Due to his unique status as both the grandchild of a village hero and a Jinchūriki, Osamu has always been viewed as a combination of living superweapon and esteemed successor, never to be considered for anything past his blood ties or his status.

## Appearance

Osamu is a fairly tall young man with a broad-shouldered masculine build whose powerful body speaks to his origins as an Uzumaki; assuming that his shockingly red hair somehow doesn't give it away and with a respectable amount of muscle that suggests that he engages in at least some regular exercise to stay in good shape. His legs, in particular, are particularly muscled due to his habit of traversing the Land of Wind on missions and from constant attempts at outrunning his caretakers.

While in his ANBU attire Osamu dresses in billowing robes embroidered with specially prepared seals and barriers meant to conceal the Seven-Tailed Beetle's Chakra whenever he uses its power, although very successful in this endeavour the sheer garment itself is conspicuously unsuitable for most mainline shinobi work outside of the desert. Consequently, while it is useful for disguising the visual effects of him utilizing his initial transformations it nonetheless makes him look highly suspicious next to his much more sensibly garbed caretakers and tends to make enemy shinobi warier of him rather than less.

The attire in question consists of a specially fitted Jōe worn over similarly dyed hakama with each being made to afford as much mobility as they possibly can while retaining their essential function; making him moreso resemble a priest or even the son of a Daimyō than a secret weapon. Lastly, he is required to always wear a hood that obscures everything aside from his eyes and usually also with a cloak to further disguise his form and provide protection against the sands of Sunagakure.

Like any shinobi of note, Osamu has a significant array of tools at his disposal most notably being the Giant Folding Fan that he carries with him on his back to supplement his fighting style, in addition to kunai and several pouches of regular shuriken supplemented by around six or so folded Fūma Shuriken.

## Personality

Osamu is an extremely foul-mouthed individual who appears to use crass language as a way to forcibly get a rise out of others, largely stemming from his extremely sheltered life and the extreme lengths that the elders of Sunagakure have gone to keep him shielded from the outside world and especially rival shinobi. Something which goes so far that Osamu is usually accompanied by several other ANBU members at all times to monitor his activities and prevent him from running into trouble or more likely, being the source of trouble for others.

This is extreme enough that such operatives were present even when he did a C-Rank Mission, displaying an overprotectiveness on their part that borders on outright paranoia, something which other residents of Sunagakure have picked up on leading to him being given the mocking nickname of Princess Suna by other Chūnin and Genin around his age who misunderstand the reasons behind these practises.

Although Osamu frequently insults people even shortly after he meets them the actual insults themselves are typically made up on the spot and tend to be so bizarre that people are usually left too confused to take offence. Whether this is done on purpose or not is difficult to tell and both options seem equally likely.

Underneath all of that however Osamu is a shrewd young man who has a better understanding of the political situation in the Land of Wind than most realize, and can accurately assess situations as they arise and read between the lines of schemes and plots. Osamu also expresses great dissatisfaction with how he's treated by Sunagakure and laments his status as a Jinchūriki due to how others treat him, either as a monster to be feared or as a precious trump card to be coddled and manipulated. Regrettably he is also fully aware of the fact that his current situation is as good as its likely to get given how he is effectively bound for life, as even were he to defect to another village it would likely result in his death regardless.

## Relationships

"*Ohayooo~lucky landlord-samaaaa! So nice of you to drop by and say hi to little old me: are you eating your vegetables, we need vegetables to eat. Lotsa them otherwise we won't get strong don'tcha know!*"
— ***Chōmei***.

**Chōmei**: Osamu's relationship with the Seven-Tailed Beetle is difficult to assess because of how quirky and eccentric it is, although the Seven-Tails has professed its desire to overwhelm him and claim freedom it also readily grants him its power when he has need of it, presumably out of self-preservation it's Jinchuriki believes it might all be part of its scheme as it has shown itself to be dangerously cunning in the past, using its jovial manners at one point to almost manipulate a young Osamu into removing the seal. Indeed, it also revealed that it has successfully brought more than one Jinchuriki to ruin by falsely befriending them to make them lower their guard. Chōmei resides in a vast cavern inside Osamu, imprisoned by an extravagant web of golden threads forming the esoteric symbols of the Uzumaki Clan.

## Abilities and Powers

As the current Jinchūriki of the Seven Tailed Beetle and as a former Chūnin-ranked shinobi, Osamu possesses a pretty good grasp on the various Ninja Arts and is likewise famed for his robust vitality and strong chakra; a common feature amongst members of the Uzumaki Clan.

Because of the uncertain political climate in the Land of Wind, Osamu considerable abilities have made him something of a living weapon to be unleashed at the behest of the board of elders. Owing to his mastery of wind release techniques and his high levels of experience as a Jinchuriki, Osamu's prowess has repeatedly been shown sufficient to overwhelm most common foes instantly. Mostly demonstrated by his great success at defeating insurgent forces during his various Border Patrols. Even massive wildlife such as the enormous breed of giant scorpion that lives in the Land of Wind can be instantly defeated by a single attack from Osamu.

Osamu's abilities as a shinobi and Jinchūriki that even the greatest prodigy of the time opted to outmanoeuvre him with traps and clever strategy rather than face him in direct combat, and while this cost Osamu his mission, in the end, his opponent was left battered and exhausted and Osamu remained unscathed throughout the entire ordeal.

### Chakra and Physical Prowess

**Enormous Chakra Reserves**: When he was born, Osamu already possessed levels of chakra that were comparable to that of a typical Jōnin and this when combined with the naturally powerful lifeforce of an Uzumaki made him an ideal host for the Seven Tails. Sealed into him by his grandparent shortly after his birth. Because he constantly draws upon the energies of the Seven-Tails Osamu has no need to further increase his chakra and in fact, has not trained it in years. Despite this though, owing largely to the two decades he's spent harnessing the power of the Seven-Tailed Beetle, Osamu's reserves of chakra are enormous. Being of such tremendous scope that during the Satomi Assassination Mission he performed no less than six B-Rank Ninjutsu in rapid succession and still had leftover chakra at the end. Even after Osamu had exhausted over half of it, it still appeared to Amari Uchiha's Sharingan as a colossal smog of chakra, with the prodigy likening it to a tsunami threatening to swallow up the entire forest he was standing in. In fact, in volume alone it even surpasses that of all Tailed Beasts with the legendary Nine-Tailed Demon Fox being the only exception. Because of his great affinity with Chōmei and the raw advantages that the union has produced for him and Sunagakure as a whole, Osamu could rightly be called the most successful Jinchūriki of his time.

**Expert Chakra Control**: Osamu's extremely potent reserves of chakra as a Jinchūriki means that the young man has had little if any cause to manually increase it. Osamu instead relies on the powers of Chōmei to off-set his weaknesses and instead focuses on harnessing the plentiful reserves that he naturally possesses, an approach that has resulted in him retaining surprisingly good chakra control for a Jinchūriki. These efforts have not gone unrewarded, as evidenced by Osamu's current aspirations and ability to create and use S-Rank techniques. As with most things this burst of proficiency came after his run-in and subsequent strategic defeat by an unknown individual; as afterwards the sheer efficiency of his chakra control more than doubled out of this sudden burst of inspiration. Nowhere is this more apparent than in Osamu's ability to form Hand Seals as during the inciting conflict he had to painstakingly form them while utilizing Wind Release: Pressure Damage, afterwards however he has mastered his chakra to the point that he can activate its effect by simply forming the Ram Seal.

**Enhanced Endurance**: Osamu's natural vitality is great enough to allow him to withstand the significant stress of drawing upon the powers of a Tailed Beast for substantial periods of time without tiring or suffering much in the way of adverse effects in general. Made readily apparent during a past conflict where he spent an entire mission under the effect of his Version One Transformation without even suffering as much as a chakra burn.

**Enhanced Durability**: Possessing the vibrant and exuberant lifeforce of the illustrious Uzumaki Clan as he does, Osamu is a glaring exception to the popular adage that long-range specialists are usually frail and easily bested in close quarters for he can withstand a great deal more than most regular shinobi without dying even in his base state. Being a Jinchūriki changes that dynamic greatly however, as his effective durability while using the power granted to him by the Seven-Tails is massively magnified due to the raw density of chakra that surround him like a mantle, and when employed to its limits it is potent enough that the Sensor-nin known as Yako believed that he would survive even if he plunged into the massive firestorm that he and Amari ended up creating during their battle. This is supported by the fact while escaping the pyres, he managed to do so completely unscathed despite the fires roaring around him, demonstrating the sheer extent of his transformations defenses.

**Basic Strength**: Although Osamu's physical strength is higher than the average civilian, in the world of shinobi his strength is nonexistent at base, although it dramatically increases with every transformation he makes and since he has a habit of always drawing upon the powers of his Tailed Beast his strength is usually dramatically higher than this. Being primarily a long-distance fighter; however, Osamu has little use for his strength and lacks the experience in martial combat necessary to make it genuinely worthwhile as an option. Nonetheless, he has found a creative use for it by applying it to the force of his swings with his Giant Folding Fan to make for more efficient attacks, which is something he had his Shadow Clones do in a past battle.

**Basic Perception**: Despite his great prowess in numerous fields, Osamu is scatterbrained and impulsive and rarely pays altogether that much attention to his surroundings, making him prone to fall into traps that would have been easily noticed by more cautious shinobi. Osamu is also prone to miss other things as well, causing him to play right into the hands of cleverer opponents such as he did when he unleashed precisely the sort of powerful wind technique that Amari was banking on and ended up inadvertently causing his own defeat. Following this experience however, the young man has started to pay more attention and is trying to hone his mind to ensure such a thing does not happen to him again.

**Immense Speed**: Speed was always Osamu's most notable quality aside from his endurance, for he had ample practice in running away from his caretakers and because he preferred fighting at range whenever possible necessitating that he be fast enough to reposition at a moments notice swiftly. Even at rest, Osamu passively used the powers of the Seven-Tailed Beetle to enhance his natural speed and reflexes. However, while his speed then was significant, upon unlocking the ability of Partial Transformation, his mobility became tremendously improved practically overnight. As he can now manifest the wings of the Seven-Tailed Beetle with a thought or on reflex and use them to propel himself at speeds so great that he can instantly traverse large distances and potentially even avoid point-blank attacks such as Amaterasu. This dizzying speed combined with his mastery of long-ranged combat makes him a truly terrifying foe for anyone, capable of outmanoeuvring mostly anyone any engage in lethal hit-and-run strategies with the sky being his only real limiter.

### Jinchūriki Transformations

Osamu is the Jinchūriki for the Seven Tailed Beetle and has therefore inherited a large degree of chakra from it, alongside a variety of other abilities such as being able to produce chakra-based webbing from his mouth or make golden scale powder.

As the oldest known Jinchūriki, Osamu is highly experienced in utilizing his abilities and can maintain the initial form indefinitely and never willingly exits it. In this manner, he significantly augments his physical capabilities, making him far faster, stronger and hardier than his physique would otherwise suggest.

Yet this is merely a small portion of his capabilities and Osamu's command of his abilities extend well past the basic Version One Transformation that he assumes at the start of every combat, being able to manifest and maintain all of his seven tails while remaining in full control of his mental faculties, an unusual feat amongst Jinchūriki and a testament to his experience.

While at that stage Osamu's true abilities are shown, as even screams and roars can unleash such tremendous amounts of raw chakra that it forms shockwaves of such power that they surpass even his elemental Ninjutsu and reshapes his surroundings. It also dramatically enhances the malleability of his chakra and allows him to shape it into arms and hands as he wishes that can stretch for dozens of meters if not more, which may be used offensively, defensively or for more or less any purpose he could possibly imagine.

#### Partial Transformations

Osamu is skilled enough to perform partial transformations of his body, most often by manifesting the Seven-Tailed Beetle's tails as wings on his lower back to maximize his speed and mobility as well as afford him unparalleled flexibility in the air. Ever since he mastered this ability, Osamu has had much less reason to transform in general as the speed he receives is the highest of any form he can naturally access. In battle, this capability of flight is most often used to minimize the chance of retaliation. It makes it almost impossible to hit Osamu reliably through Taijutsu or other forms of melee combat.

Though already an extraordinary benefit on its own, it is made all the more potent by Osamu's specialization as a predominantly long-range combatant. For with the perfect manoeuvrability that the wings offer he can safely and efficiently employ Jutsu while airborne, allowing him to bombard rival villages and opposing forces on the ground without ever needing to put himself in harm's way.

Beyond the gift of flight, Osamu has also learned how to manifest the Seven-Tails enormous whip-like tail for mid-to-long range attacks, these blows are mighty and are an effective way of conserving chakra in the unlikely event that Osamu needs to.

### Ninjutsu

Perhaps owing to his multiple flights of fancy or entirely out of sheer boredom, Osamu possesses above-average ability in numerous fields of Ninjutsu in addition to his innate skills as a Jinchūriki, most notably within the areas of Nature Transformation and Shurikenjutsu. Osamu also frequently takes full advantage of the Shadow Clone Technique due to his nigh-inexhaustible reserves as a Jinchūriki to create several clones at once while still having them maintain decent levels of chakra, all while barely impacting his resources.

#### Nature Transformation

Like the majority of shinobi in Sunagakure Osamu has an Affinity for Wind and is a noted master of it, with his techniques being so powerful that even a single C-Rank Jutsu was powerful enough to instantly wipe out an incoming troop of rebels with strict ease. Most people his age can only handle using a limited number of them before running low on chakra. Osamu however has established enough of a working relationship with Chōmei to be able to bolster his reserves tremendously if need be, allowing him to perform a much larger variety of Ninjutsu.

He is aware of this advantage and uses it to significant effect in battle, preferring a mixture of mid-to-long range combat brandishing spontaneously conjured blades of wind up close and unleashing overwhelmingly powerful blasts of compressed air and pressure from afar to devastate enemy forces and alter the very terrain itself.  His advanced chakra control also allows him to manipulate his shuriken remotely through mastery of chakra flow and manipulated air currents, a technique that it seems that he quite favours. As far as defence is concerned, Osamu can sheath himself in protective wind currents to ward off attacks as they come and can even maintain it for several seconds as a continuous barrier of air.

When he has the luxury of engaging in long-range combat Osamu prefers making use of his Giant Folding Fan to allows him to effectively neutralize the need of hand seals for lower-ranked Wind Release techniques. Something he achieves by swinging it as something of a somatic replacement, allowing him to chain together consecutive blasts far more quickly than if he was to form the individual signs each time.

#### Shurikenjutsu

While he'd readily admit to being no master, Osamu makes effective use of shurikens while battling and is proficient enough to channel wind-natured chakra through them for a range of powerful effects. Still, while he's capable of hitting his mark decently often, it is rare for him to throw the shuriken himself, relying instead upon various wind techniques to do so in his place. He is nonetheless skilled in the use of various Shurikenjutsu techniques of lesser complexity such as the Shadow Shuriken technique.
