Dorutan Ekazu

Dorutan Ekazu (ダルトンエイカーズ Eikāzu Dorutan) is a Shinobi and the First Jikanokage (最初時間影 Shodai Jikanokage) of Jikanogakure (隠れ時間村 Village of Hidden Time).

Early Life


Not much is known about Dorutan's past, other than he was born and raised in Konohagakure. From there, he graduated at the top of his class in the academy at age ten. At age fourteen, he was the oldest in the Chūnin exams. Unlike the rest of the shinobi, he did not have any teammates, thus he had to handle things on his own. He was the second to find the scrolls needed to enter the preliminaries. But despite this, he helped other teams pass through the Forest of Death. This led to a near fatal confrontation with Zaku Abumi. Seeing a team about to be hit by his Extreme Decapitating Airwaves attack, Dorutan ran right into it, taking the full brunt of the blast. This left him nearly fatally injured and therefore had to forfeit the first part of the Chūnin exams to have his injuries tended to. But since he found both scrolls, he was given a second chance in the preliminaries.

Despite a decent recovery, he needed to wear medical wraps that covered around 95% of his body, leaving only the upper part of his head visible. But even then, he was able to fight well and stood his ground during the elimination exams. After this, not much else was heard from him during the invasion of Konoha, but he fulfilled vital roles such as saving villagers from Orochimaru's attack. After the invasion was over, he attended the Third Hokage's funeral and promised that he would bring peace to all nations, no matter what.

Dorutan's Mentor


After the two year skip, Dorutan was finally able to be rid of the medical casts that kept his injuries in check, but many scars were left from Zaku's attack which made people grow wary of him, and a lot of the villagers avoided him. Despite this, he kept training and perfecting his skills. Because of this, the one person who became interested in him was Tsunade, who admired his undying spirit and determination, reminding her a lot of Naruto. During this time, he awoken an ancient Ekazu Kekkei Genkai, the Tetsuigan (鉄眼 Iron Eye), which granted him powerful abilities. But because he didn't know how to fully control it, it left him drained. Because of this, Tsunade, who was given the title of Fifth Hokage, had a medical ninja with him whenever he trained his Tetsuigan, and she even attended some of his training and gave him pointers on how to maintain a steady chakra flow.

From then on out, Tsunade became his mentor, training him in not only his Tetsuigan, but also in taijutsu and medical techniques. They developed something of a brother and sister bond during this time and would even spar together in their free time. Because of this, he also became good friends with Sakura, Tsunade's protege student, and even they sparred when they found the time.

Becoming A Kage


Finally gaining control of his Tetsuigan, he was attacked by a mysterious figure in a black coat with a red cloud on it. The attacker's identity was identified as Deidara. Using this as an opportunity, he activated his Tetsuigan and went on the offensive, but was initially thrown off guard by Deidara's explosive techniques, but eventually found a pattern and began getting close enough to deliver some strong, up-close attacks. Realizing Dorutan's strength, Deidara retreated. Not wasting any time, he made his way back to Konohagakure and warned Tsunade about this unknown threat.

His training was now focused on fending off the Akatsuki, further improving his taijutsu capabilities by training with Might Guy and Rock Lee, and went to Kakashi to train his Tetsuigan control. Another individual who took notice of his improvement was Jiraiya, who felt that his skills were enough to introduce him to the Toad settlement of Mount Myoboku. Aware of his abilities, Shima and Fukasaku agreed to train him in the way of Sage mode. Already at peace with himself, achieving the Sage Mode didn't take him long to do. His Sage mode was far different from Naruto's. The markings on his eyes changed to how the First Hokage's looked when he used Sage mode, which meant he had a greater control of the state. He was also capable of achieving it faster than Naruto could, but had the difficulty of controlling it as long. Despite the shortcoming, he would use it to great extent.

After gaining Sage mode, he was given a most important mission by Tsunade. An unknown group of Shinobi were plunging through the ruins of an unknown village long destroyed, but still held many secrets of the past, including many powerful techniques that would lead to danger if given to the wrong hands. Pursuing these pillagers, he fought them off admirably, but one of them gave him problems due to her taijutsu. They were both neck and neck, matching one attack with another. Dorutan eventually gained the upper hand by activating his Tetsuigan and manage to render her unconscious. Looking through the ruins, he saw many things relating to the Ekazu clan and came to a realization. This was the ruins of his clan's original homeland. Learning all this, he approached Tsunade with the news immediately and requested that the village be rebuilt, even if he had to do it himself. Impressed by his determination of restoring his clan's village to its former glory, she allowed it, and even had some of the Konoha villagers lend a hand in its rebuilding. Among these people, Naruto, Sakura, Sai, Lee, Kakashi, Neji, Kiba, Shino, Ino, Guy, Jiraiya and many other Shinobi chipped into rebuilding the village. With everyone's help, it took only three months to completely rebuild the village. Some of Konoha's villagers even agreed to become villagers of this new village, which Dorutan named "Jikanogakure" (隠れ時間村 Village of Hidden Time), to reflect on it being hidden by the passage of time. After being realized as a stable village and part of a land not part of any of the nations, it was renamed the Time Nation in honor of his village. Because of this, Dorutan was given the title of Kage and would become the First Jikanokage (最初時間影 Shodai Jikanokage).



Time of War


It wasn't long that he would be part of the Kage summit to discuss the growing Akatsuki threat and came to a conclusion that all the nations should gather as one to fight this threat. After Sasuke attacked the summit, he went down with Gaara to see how the Raikage was faring. Seeing that Sasuke was still standing, he agreed to fight Sasuke with Gaara, but they were both beaten and Sasuke began making his way up to the summit. After recovering enough to move, Gaara, A, and Dorutan began to make their way back up to the summit room, seeing that Ohnoki had seemingly defeated Sasuke with his Dust Release technique. But before they could figure that out, a mysterious masked man who identified himself as Madara Uchiha appeared with Sasuke over his shoulder, warning them of Plan Tsuki No Me (月計画の目 Eye of the Moon Plan). After refusing to surrender to the plan, Madara declared war and disappeared. Finally agreeing on a truce, Dorutan insisted that rather than have one individual leading the whole force, have each of the Kages command specific branches of the newfound Shinobi Alliance. Dorutan wouldn't be commanding any branches, but rather would fight on the battlefield as an individual soldier.

Personality
Dorutan is a very kind individual, oftentimes putting his needs after everyone else's and not asking for anything in return for his help. He is very protective of those who are close to him, and is willing to put his life on the line if they come up against someone they can't handle on their own.

He is also very wise for his age, always speaking in riddles and words of wisdom, a lot of which many people take to heart.

Appearance
Dorutan is a tall, fit and fair skinned individual. His eyes are blue with a horizontal pupal and orange markings surrounding the eyes similar to a user in Sage mode, but he is not in this state. His hair was originally short, but constant use of the Tetsuigan has grown his hair out to very long lengths with the right half resting over his shoulder and the left half behind his back and is a jet black. His Kage outfit consists of a white, weighted robe with a black, turtleneck sweater underneath and the Kage hat bearing the village's symbol and colored white with blue accents. His casual outfit is a black, turtleneck sweater and dark grey sweatpants. His outfit during the Fourth Shinobi World war consisted of a suit of purple samurai armor designed similarly to the armor Madara and Hashirama wore, bearing Jikanogakure's symbols on the shoulder pieces. The armor has multiple, ergonomic rods on the inside that expand and contract depending on his movement. These control his chakra flow, giving him extra chakra when he needs it, and less when he doesn't.

Abilities
Having been trained by many different Shinobi in many different types of combat, he learned many different abilities.

Ninjutsu




Fireball Jutsu
Being an avid user of fire techniques, Dorutan can use the Fireball jutsu as a form of distraction to force his opponent to dodge it and leave said opponent wide open for another attack.

Twin Dragon Fist Jutsu
One of Dorutan's first signature attacks was the Twin Dragon Fist jutsu, a technique he created that combines both the burning capabilities of the Fireball jutsu, with the chakra depriving capabilities of the Eight Trigrams Palm technique. Upon activation, his hands are surrounded by fire shaped like dragon's heads. Upon hitting his opponent, the chakra networks around the area of impact are cut off, causing a lot of damage.

Time Manipulation Jutsu
Another technique he is capable of is the Time Manipulation jutsu. Activating this technique slows down the world around him for five seconds. He oftentimes used this in tandem with his Twin Dragon Fist jutsu to cause a lot of damage before the opponent can even attack.

Multi-Arm Technique
This is one he doesn't use often, but when he does, he uses it to great lengths. Upon activation, two arms made of chakra appear from the sides of his back and allows him to perform multiple ninjutsu and taijutsu techniques.

Fire Release: Atomic Blitz
The Fire Release: Atomic Blitz is Dorutan Ekazu's ultimate technique. Requiring the use of his Sage mode infused perfect Tetsuigan state, this technique requires tremendous chakra to form.

To perform the technique, Dorutan must create a large ball of chakra and infuse it with his fire release. Once complete, he must use the natural energy gained from Sage mode to begin compressing it into a small sphere. This keeps going until it is the size of a pea, then moves it towards his index and middle fingers, which he has pointed out like a gun. To release the jutsu, he merely has to lower his thumb.

Upon contact with a person or object, the sphere will initially shrink into nothingness, but then almost instantly expand into a large, sphere shaped blast twenty feet in diameter. Anything in its blast radius is disintegrated and a crater is left that is smooth as glass.

Taijutsu


His Taijutsu is where he reigns supreme. His physical attacks are incredible and he can perform many close quarters attacks, even the Gentle Fist related attacks. He can use the Shishi Rendan that he observed Sasuke using during the elimination exams, and is also capable of many different crippling attacks.

Sage Mode
Dorutan is capable of entering Sage Mode, which amplifies his abilities and speed. In this state, his reflexes are heightened greatly, allowing him to dodge certain techniques that strike in the blink of an eye. He is capable of entering Sage mode three times faster than Naruto, but at the cost of only being able to use it three times less the duration.

Kekkei Genkai


Once every five hundred years, a member of the Ekazu family is blessed with a special dōjutsu based Kekkei Genkai. Known as the Tetsuigan (pronounced tet-sai-gone), upon activation, the user's eyes fragment into several disconnected lines, each one sporting a wide array of colors, which then break apart and spin around before locking into place. In this form, Dorutan is capable of extraordinary feats of strength, speed and finesse. With the Tetsuigan, whenever he stands over a body of water, he becomes one with it. Every move and every strike, the water follows with him. He is able to land several strikes at such incredible speed, he can land as many as a hundred before a single drop falls back into the water. His physical attacks are so powerful in this state that when he strikes an opponent, the very air around the punch or kick pressurizes and condenses, amplifying the attack even further.

The major drawback to this technique is confidence and concentration. If either of the two drops even slightly, not only will he lose the Tetsuigan, but also almost all his chakra if lost before achieving full strength. Losing this state prematurely is similar to opening the Gate of Death in that it can cause tremendous damage to the user, with death being the most likely outcome if medical help is not given immediately. But if used correctly, and the user's confidence stays high for the full length of the Tetsuigan, the power gained from it is said to be the equivalent of opening the Gate of Wonder but without the self injury.

The Tetsuigan was created by the first member of the Ekazu clan over 1500 years ago. Trying to learn of a way to harness the flow of the universe, Denkaichi Ekazu looked to the power of chakra. Concentrating his energy in large masses, he felt the flow of the universe around him, which ended up changing the physical appearance of his eyes, along with vastly increased speed and strength. He became aware that such a technique is dangerous if disengaged prematurely, as it nearly ended up killing him. Used by those who weren't properly trained to use it, it could have spelt the end of the Ekazu clan line. So he focused on the properties to alter them, making sure the Tetsuigan was passed down once only every half millenium.

Perfect Tetsuigan
A much more heightened form of the Tetsuigan. Within this state, the transformed pupil is enlarged and the marking around Dorutan's eye begins to wrap around it, lowering into a spiked point at the bottom. Within this state, his hair also grows out more. Along with the changes in appearance, his abilities are further enhanced at a state only described as "perfect". Within this state, Dorutan is capable of slight precognitive abilities, being able to predict the pattern of a strike as long as his opponent is in his line of sight. Within a split second, he is not only able to block the attack, but deliver a counter strike that can cause devastating damage, even more so if the attack hits a pressure point. If Dorutan happens to hit a pressure point, the damage could be so severe that it may not ever recover and is capable of either dismembering a limb, or leaving it paralyzed for good. His speed also takes a dramatic increase, along with his reflexes. He can block a shuriken that comes within breathing distance in a heartbeat.

Like with the ordinary Tetsuigan, this form requires concentration and confidence but at an even more tremendous level. This form is so powerful, it cannot be disengaged by the user and has to disengage on its own. If disengaged prematurely, it will kill the user because the immediate change in pressure on the body crushes the heart instantaneously.

Perfect Sage Tetsuigan


Having combined both the powers of his sage mode and Tetsuigan, Dorutan achieved a form of Sage mode only previously achieved by Hashirama Senju, the first Hokage. In this state, his chakra is limitless, and he can hold the sage mode at about the same time Naruto can hold his. The drawback to this is it requires both prerequisites of the Sage mode and Tetsuigan. Not only does he have to remain perfectly still while achieving sage mode, but he also has to build up tremendous amounts of energy to combine it with his Tetsuigan. Both energy levels have to be exact. Too much or too little of either of them, and he'll lose the sage mode, along with a lot of his chakra.

Nature Transformation
Dorutan can use both Fire and Water release. While not using them often for ninjutsu, he can use both to defend against water and fire type attacks.

Combat Strategy
Dorutan can think of a strategy long before the battle began and can play it off from start to finish with a high chance of success. Even should his main plan fail, he compensates with what he calls "Plans B through Z". Every time one of his plans fail, he goes to another and oftentimes improvises on the fly. He believes that one step ahead isn't a plan. Two to three steps ahead, beating an opponent's move before it's even made, that's a plan to him.

Learning Capabilities
Dorutan was always a fast learner, it's how he is able to do so many different taijutsu techniques, even if he's only saw the technique once. All he needs is a visual layout of the technique and he can get it learned down rather quickly.

Historical Knowledge
Dorutan possesses a vast, historical knowledge, primarily on techniques his ancestors created. With what he knew, he single handed rewrote all the texts that were in the original Jikanogakure's archives and placed them in different areas of the archives depending on their era period.

Wars and Events
These are the wars and events Dorutan was part of.

Creation and Conception
Dorutan originally started out as a Soul Eater OC a few years back. It wasn't until recently when I got into the Naruto fandom again after a long, half-decade hiatus of the fandom that I decided to transition him to Naruto with a new look, new personality, basically new everything. His personality is based somewhat off of mine. Kind, putting his needs after everyone else's, and not really asking for anything in return for his deeds. He's gone through a lot of physical and visual revisions and I'm constantly changing his facial appearance until I can stick with one that best matches him.
