  "You certainly had quite the advehese st few days…" Kensei said as he looked at his grandson training in the backyard.

  "Yeah. I still 't believe it. But I doubt I'd get a mission like that any time soon." Daichi replied as he did another handstand push-up. There were several shadow es meditating and direg chakra to the seal oher side as the real one pleted the physical training.

  "True. Mission like that is a rarity. And a Geniing such a mission. It's unheard of… How long does your break st?"

  "Kakashi sensei gave me 5 days. He said that I should be prepared just in case. Whatever that means…" Daichi replied as he pushed his body up. He had increased the weight on his training clothes to 600kg and was pleting his strength and speed training.

  Kensei looked at his grandson and his mind came up with a possible answer. 'The in exams are taking p the Stone vilge ihan 6 Days. Would Kakashi nominate him? Moreover, will he have two teammates to go along with him?'

  Kensei wasn't silent and told Daichi his assumption.

  Daichi looked at his grandpa and digested what the old man just told him. 'The in exams huh… I'm strong enough to take anything ing my way but that's if I go alone. Based on Kakashi's personality he might reend me for it but will the Hokage agree? The exam is ione vilge so that might be a problem. I don't know how hostile they would be to ninjas from our nation. If the Hokage does decide to sehen he will have to send me in a team. I'm not sure how I feel about that…'

  "I'll make a decision if I'm allowed to attend the exam. Right now I'm just gonna rex and enjoy myself." Daichi replied as he got closer and closer to pleting his set.

  [+1 Strength]

  Daichi looked at the pop up box and frowned. He did 4 more bringing his set to 500 and stopped. He jumped and nded on his feet ao the nearby tree to meditate. Daichi looked at the increase in stat point and frowned.

  'Before starting my training I created shadow es and had them store their chakra into the Hurength seal. And I made sure to use up my remaining chakra to make my physical exercise more demanding. And it paid off. I got an additional 4 in strength, 2 in vitality, 2 ierity and 3 in agility. But I only got 1 point increase in the chakra stat.'

  Daichi had a theory for a while regarding his stat increase and the training he did for a few days were firming it. 'It's taking longer and loo get points in my chakra stat. But it's above 400… But this also means there is a possibility that soon I won't be able to increase my stats at all with training when I reach a certain threshold. After that point I'll only be able to increase my stat with Level up and saved points.'

  The boy opened his status page and looked at the saved points. '591 points huh. I've been careful with how I spend them… H them like a dragon with his gold… But now that I'm a ninja, not using the points could affect me adversely…'

  The young Gamer thought oter for a little longer and made a decision. 'If I'm indeed selected for the uping in exam then I'll add some points to the Chakra stat. I'll o test my theory and I'll be able to increase my chakra points as well, allowio finish the first tier of the seal.'

  As Daichi was making pns for his future so was his sensei and the Hokage.

  Hokage Tower.

  Kakashi and his fellow Jonins with Genin teams were having a meeting with the Hokage. Hiruzen had returned a few days ago from the capital and things were starting to get back to normal.

  "Have all of you made a decisiarding your teams?"

  "We have Lord Hokage."

  Hiruzen nodded. "Those of you who want to nominate your teams please step forward."

  A few of the Jonins made a move and then at the st sed Kakashi also stepped forward. The silver haired ninja stepping forward indicated that he was nominating Daichi for the exam.

  "Oi oi Kakashi, what are you doing? Are you really going to let Daichi participate in the exam at the Stone vilge?" A Jonin asked with shock.

  "Kakashi, don't you think you're moving a bit too fast?" It was Guy who asked this question.

  "No. He's ready." The silver haired ninja's fident reply stopped any protest from his fellow ninjas.

  Hiruzen didn't speak a word as he looked at the Jonin in front of him. A few seds ter he spoke. "Kakashi, stay. The rest of you are dismissed. Those of you nominated your teams, I'll take them into sideration." The kage said looking at the few sensei who want their Genins to participate in the exams

  All the Jonihe room and soon it was just the copy inja and the Hokage.

  Hiruzen took a few moments to gather his thoughts and then addressed the issue. "You are right, Kakashi. Daichi is strong and intelligent enough that he'll most likely pass the exam. But I will have to reject his nomination for this exam."

  Kakashi was fused. "If I may ask, why Lord Hokage? If he bees a in then he'll have more freedom and mobility. It would be difficult for Danzo or Orochimaru to get to him."

  "True. But you're fetting what happe week."

  At that moment the Jonin realized what the Hokage was talking about. "I know that solving that case was a big deal but did it really garner him that much attention."

  Hiruzen nodded. "Yes. Now everyone knows that he's not just your student but also Tsunade's apprentid a talented medija. If we send him into the in exam at the Stone vilge there will be a lot of eyes on him. And that's not mentioning the ck of team members to participate in the exam. Daichi will most definitely bee a target."

  "You know he take care of himself."

  "Yes, I do. But that doesn't mean something out of his trol couldn't happen. Our intelligence have reported that the other vilges are gathering information about Daichi. Now whether they just want to know more about their enemy or if they are pnning to do something, we 't tell… So I'm rejeg your nomination. And for the mome him train and improve himself. I'm sure he already has some pns figured out." Hiruzen said.

  Kakashi took a breath and nodded. "Yes sir."

  The Jonihe Kage to his thoughts. Hiruzen leaned ba his chair and took his pipe. 'This missiht Daichi a lot of fame but whether its good or bad… Only time will tell…'

  Hiruzen looked through the dots and saw three names among the list submitted for the exam. There were only a few Genin teams participating in the in exam at the Stone vilge. 'Kabuto Yakushi and his two teammates. They are participating in this exam as well… Sihey've been a Genin team for a while, they don't have a Jonin to supervise them. Giving them much more freedom… Hmm. This exam ione vilge… He must be there to colletel.'

  The kage looked at the request put forth by the Jonins and approved it. He thehrough the other dots and frowned as he looked at the locatiohe exam was held. 'The in exam is in that vilge…' The information written on that vilge didn't make the Hokage happy.

  "e on…" Daichi trated on the bowl a meter in front of him. It was filled to the brim with leaves and Daichi was trying to extract water from it. He had been doing it for hours. Several drops of water were extracted from the leaves, densed and formed into a small sphere suspended in the air above the bowl with his chakra.

  [Skill Water Extra teique's level has risen by one.]

  "Yes. Finally got it to Level 06."

  Daichi carefully took the bowl and examined all the leaves. 'No damage. Good.'

  Daichi got up a he ke in training ground three. He looked at the flowing water a out a small breath. "Soon…"

  As he stood there enjoying the calm atmosphere his senses alerted him to his teacher's presence.

  "You're only an hour te. That's a surprise…" Daichi said with a smile as he looked at Kakashi.

  "Well, I couldn't keep my cute Genin waiting too long." The Jonin said with a shrug.

  Daichi was silent for a while and then decided to ask his question. "Will I be participating in the ing in exam?"

  Kakashi looked at his student and then sighed. 'Of course he'd ask that.'

  "Unfortunately no. There wasn't a team with an open spot avaible and given the mission we just pleted it was decided that it would be best for you to just y low for a while."

  Daiodded at that. "ime then…"

  "Are you disappointed?"

  "Why? I'm ly in a hurry. And this gives me time to train aronger."

  Kakashi raised an eyebrow at that. "Most people who take early graduation try to take the earliest in exam avaible…"

  "You fet sensei, I could have graduated a lot sooner or I could have skipped a grade in the academy but I didn't do it because I wao be ready and as strong as possible. And now that I'm Genin there's a lot I o do. So missing one or two exams doesn't really bother me, because it doesn't stop me from improving myself. And I will also have more mission experiender the guidance of a capable leader like you."

  The Jonin sensei nodded with that se. "Well then what do you say we get some missions."

  "Sure thing sensei."

  —-

  "You know, when you said we had some missions this isly what I had in mind." Daichi said with a twit his eye as he held several dog leashes.

  Daichi and his teacher were taking the pets to the Inuzuka pound. A D Rank missio delivery mission. They were tasked with colleg the dogs aing them to the pound.

  "This is the perfect time to rex Daichi. You o take some rest and do simple things…" Kakashi then looked at his student and asked. "Did you really have to pce them in a Genjutsu?"

  Daichi looked at his sensei with some annoyahey tried to bite me. And besides it's just a harmless Genjutsu. And this way they behave till they reach the pd I get to improve my illusion skills. A win-win for everyone."

  The Jonin shrugged and soon they reached their destination. They handed over the pets and got the mission pletion slip.

  That's how it went for Daichi. He would train his body and improve his chakra stat. Daichi would also spend time w on improving the third step of Nature transformation training. And every two or three days Kakashi would take Daichi to plete a D Rank mission.

  Somewhere in Fire try.

  It was the middle of the night. In a small inn somewhere in Fire Nation a meeting was taking pce between two people. They looked ordinary in appearand nothing about them stood out.

  One handed a small pouch to the other and collected a scroll in exge.

  "So this will work?" The man asked his panion as he took the pouch.

  "Yes. Definitely. This is ade. Just as you wanted. It will work and it won't be traced." The other man replied.

  The first man nodded and spoke. "Payment is all there. I'll take my leave then."

  The sean opehe scroll and verified the tents and soohe pce. He traveled through the forest and soon reached his house he capital.

  As he entered his home a voice came from the shadows.

  "Is it done?"

  The unnamed man nodded. "Yes. The item is delivered on schedule and payment has been received." The man hahe scroll to the appehat appeared out of the shadows.

  "Good. I'll activate you when I need you again."

  The man suddenly fell unscious and a few mier opened his eyes again. He slowly got up and checked himself. "Oh man. I must have bcked out. I have got to stop drinking so much."

  He went about his business as if nothing had happened.

  Nearby the man's home a blond was waiting for his partner. He was wearing a bck cloak with red clouds. He soon saw the one he was waiting for headed his way.

  "Yo Sasori. What took you so long my man? I was getting bored."

  "Calm down Deidara. I told you I went to meet with one of my spies. And I'm not te just as I said." The maified as Sasori spoke.

  "Yeah yeah. So is it done?" Deidara asked his partner.

  "Yes. Business is done. And we have the payment." Sasori extended his tail and hahe scroll to his partner.

  "Well the's get this to Kakuzu. He's the one who hahe money after all…" Deidara said.

  With a grunt, Sasreed and both of them moved through the forest. Sasori and Deidara. Two S Rank missing ninjas. And members of the Akatsuki anization.
