Bakura Yuri

"I would choose to become an ordinary human instead of genius if I had a choice. It's tired to carry this heavy burden for my entire life. Since fact is fact, I will accept my life, my destiny as a genius."

Early Life
Yuri was born as the son of Bakura Clan Third Leader, Bakura Yōhei and Third's Guardian, Bakura Ayaka into the Bakura Clan and was praised by all as the best of his generation; the prodigy. He has almost everything perfect but not family, the only piece of happiness he lost. His family is an incomplete family because his father has two wives, Yuri was the sixth child out of eight. When he was still an infant, his father paid more attention to his elder sons. He was alienated because he was consider as outsider. The reason behind this thing is because he was the son of Yōhei's second wife. But everything changed when he started to gain fame as a Prodigy when he accidentally activated Storm Release, the kekkei genkai inherited by his ancestor. He graduated from Ninja Academy with flying colour, with the achievement of top student of the year when he was only 7. He also mastered the Storm Release during the same year by fired Storm Release: Storm Beam mixed with the Hiden Jutsu to show that he is a genius and his father is correct about caring him more than others.

His nickname, The Prodigy, spread widely around the world when he passed the Chūnin Exams easily with his Storm Release.

He was praised highly by his father, who saw his extremely high talent ever since he activated Storm Release when he was a kid. The news of his achievement never stop spreading. Even though he was very famous but he always kept himself low profile but sometime he will show his arrogant side to prove that he is not a weakling or an outsider. There were a lot of people who challenged him but rejected. A lot of people who wanted to be famous tried to force him into fight by ambushing him from behind but always found beaten. When he was 12, he was promoted to Jōnin. He was one of the best and youngest Amegakure Jōnin during that era. When he was 14, his parent divorced. Yuri and his little brother followed their mother while other 6 siblings followed father and their stepmother. However, they lived at the same house, just different room due to some technical problem. Lack of love turned Yuri become a taciturn person. When he was 15, a dozen of A-Rank assassins were hired by outsiders to wipe out entire Bakura Clan including Yuri, the prodigy. A few Bakura members and his parent including his stepmother were killed in the mission but the assassination failed after that because they were all wiped out by Yuri alone when he woke up from sleep. That was the greatest pain in his life and turned him into a total taciturn person. He barely talk after the incident for the exception to his siblings and cousins. Shortly after his father death, he became the Fourth Leader of Bakura Clan.

He passed the work of a leader to his half-sister because he wanted to continue his study and since he had communication problem, he complaint that the job does not suits him.

However, he managed to meet a few new friends and slowly fix the problem. During holiday of the second semester, he spent his holiday with his friend picnic in hinterland. While looking for firewood, he found a legendary sword stuck at a stone. Unaware how many people failed and died when tried to pull the sword out, he hold the sword and effortlessly pulled it out of the stone. He later found out that sword he obtained is a Regalia Weapon. Since then, he spent his free time to master the weapon and eventually gained the highest rank anyone could achieve, EX-Rank and King title.

Taijutsu
Yuri is a near-perfect of taijutsu user for a Bakura Clan member despite they never focus at taijutsu, as shown when he knocked down a dozen shinobi who tried to attack him and repeled an Amegakure Jōnin sword assault by using solely his index finger mixed with chakra.

Genjutsu
Yuri is not a specialist of genjutsu but he still able to mastered it to some extent. He learned genjutsu from a mysterious Dojutsu user for a few year since he was 12.

Kenjutsu

He trained range jutsu instead of melee using Rakka Arashi and he succeeded of creating some jutsu with his Storm Release. However, he couldn't use the sword for long period because it greatly consumed his chakra and stamina.

Denkiseigyo
Yuri was a master of his clan Hiden Jutsu, Denkiseigyo. With his amazing talent, he not solely mastered it but also improved it to another standard.
