"Old man, is sothing the matter?"
In the Hokage office, Jiraiya yawned and jumped in through the window.
However, as soon as he entered, he saw Danzo staring at him with a face that looked like a loved one of his had passed away, which imdiately made his eyes clear.
"You've arrived?"
Sarutobi Hiruzen was long accustod to his disciple's style.
He didn't even bother to look, speaking directly, "Jiraiya, we've had new discoveries recently, but things are also a bit troubleso."
"New discoveries?"
Jiraiya imdiately beca serious, his previous lazy deanor completely gone.
"Quickly, tell what happened."
"Let speak."
Before Sarutobi Hiruzen could speak, Danzo cut him off.
"According to our Root's investigation, there have been three new leads recently. We've had contact with Kirigakure before, as you should know."
"Afterwards, the Fourth Mizukage personally wrote a letter. According to his recollection, he seed to vaguely see others besides Obito."
"One was a man with orange hair, and the other was a woman with blue hair."
When speaking of these two distinct features, Danzo felt a strange sense of déjà vu, but he had t too many people in his life, so he didn't take it seriously.
"A man with orange hair and a woman with blue hair?" Jiraiya stroked his chin.
He also felt a slight familiarity with these characteristics, which reminded him of his three forr disciples.
But unfortunately, all three had died in the war long ago.
"I've noted that. What are the other two?"
"As for the other two…"
This ti, Sarutobi Hiruzen didn't wait for Danzo to speak.
He took a puff from his pipe and spoke slowly, "Both have actual targets. One is in the Land of Hot Water, where traces of mysterious organization mbers are suspected to have been found."
"We actually detected this earlier, but we didn't act because we wanted to confirm it further."
"The Land of Hot Water again?"
Jiraiya raised an eyebrow. His last trip to the Land of Hot Water to find Orochimaru was still fresh in his mory.
But this was normal. The Land of Hot Water was inherently a mixed bag, and it wasn't impossible for anyone to be hiding there.
"And the other one…"
As he was pondering, Sarutobi Hiruzen sighed and continued to speak, "It concerns Orochimaru."
As soon as Orochimaru was ntioned, the entire Hokage office fell silent.
Jiraiya's gaze beca exceptionally serious, and Sarutobi Hiruzen understood his intention upon seeing this.
Jiraiya would absolutely not miss any information about Orochimaru.
"I understand. You go find Orochimaru. I'll leave the Land of Hot Water to Kakashi!"
anwhile, although Danzo still had a deadpan expression, he was overjoyed inside.
As long as Jiraiya goes to search, the matter of the Land of Hot Water will have nothing to do with him.
"No matter whether there's a harvest in the Land of Hot Water or not, this credit won't be yours."
.....
Takemi didn't quite understand what Guy's phrase 'Why did you turn into Kakashi?' ant.
It was just dyeing his hair, and besides, it would turn white on its own later. But he could feel that Guy's fists were truly hard.
Over the course of a month, Takemi had intimately experienced this teacher, who used to smile at him and occasionally demonstrate what a true 'Konoha's White Fang' was.
He had learned how he used his fists to enhance his physical sensations, helping him achieve soul sublimation through physical ans.
"Does this an that preaching is useless, and broken bones are the best textbook?"
Takemi muttered to himself as he sat under a tree. Just then, Kakashi handed him a bottle of orange juice.
"Here, it tastes good."
"Mm."
Takemi imdiately took the orange juice, but quickly grinned and handed it to Guy, who was beside him.
"Guy-sensei, you've worked hard."
"…"
Kakashi rubbed his head, while Guy winked at Kakashi before taking the orange juice.
"Thanks. I have to say, you're making progress really fast, kid."
"Indeed."
Kakashi handed another bottle to Takemi, then sat down with the two of them under the tree.
"You're truly improving at a rapid rate!"
"Hehe, both of you teachers are excellent instructors." Takemi said with a smile.
After a month of training, he had gained a lot!
He initially found it quite painful, even in a one-on-one situation. Facing a Jonin who was proficient in tactical skills and had extensive combat experience, he was sowhat disheveled.
Moreover, this was sparring, and many Jutsu were forbidden.
Once he slowly adapted, Kakashi began to increase the intensity, changing from one-on-one to one-on-two.
"So, it's not that I'm fighting two people, but that I'm being beaten by two people?"
This training thod also slowly loosened so restrictions, such as allowing him to use the Flying Thunder God Technique.
This finally made him feel a lot better, but he found that these two also had a routine.
Kakashi would always go to a Flying Thunder God marked kunai and destroy them or camp there, then harass him with Ninjutsu.
After enduring this for a month, it was difficult for his ability to handle opponents not to improve.
"Moreover, Kakashi-sensei also helped refine the application and improvent of so Jutsu."
After regular training, Kakashi didn't forget to help him in other areas.
For example, he proposed so ideas for the application of Flying Thunder God Technique, and also gave so suggestions for his Purple Electricity and Rasengan.
He was, after all, an elite rumored to have copied thousands of Ninjutsu. Even if he didn't use many of them, his suggestions were definitely helpful.
This gave Takemi many ideas, and he also pondered how to implent them.
"For Purple Electricity, perhaps I can consider Kakashi's suggestion of using a weapon as a dium to shoot it out, or Lightning Release Chakra Mode? For Rasengan, I rember a move that works with the planet's rotation?"
He seed to recall a move called Rasengan: Uzuhiko, which could inject the Rasengan's Chakra into soone else's body.
This Chakra would then rotate with the planet, and as long as the planet's rotation didn't stop, this attack would never stop.
"But how is this thing created?"
Takemi secretly pondered while chewing on a straw, and Kakashi glanced over curiously.
"What are you thinking about?"
"I'm thinking about how to implent the suggestions Kakashi-sensei gave … Wait, you finished it again?"
Takemi casually turned his head and replied, but the next mont, his eyes widened.
"No way, such a big bottle, and it's gone already?"
"Hehe, you want to see his face, don't you?"
Although Guy was still a bit uncomfortable with Takemi's hair color, he had basically gotten used to it after a month. He smiled nonchalantly.
"I only saw him without his mask a few tis when I was little. He is very mysterious, and he eats super fast, so there's hardly any chance."
"I've experienced that."
Takemi nodded, then blinked and asked curiously, "Then, what does Kakashi-sensei look like?"
"Can't you two talk about sothing else?"
Before Guy could speak, Kakashi rolled his eyes, and Takemi tilted his head.
"Kakashi-sensei, when Jiraiya-sama and I went to the Land of Hot Water, we saw his manuscript. It seed to be a new, unpublished draft of icha icha paradise."
"…"
"Do you want to tell you the subsequent plot?"
"…Wait, you read that stuff at such a young age?!"
"Uh…"
Takemi's face stiffened. He hadn't expected to be counter-attacked here.
"You two…"
The two of them were bickering, and Guy watched happily, though he also felt a bit envious.
It's a pity, why didn't my application pass back then…
"But that kid is also pretty good. Perhaps his talent isn't as good as Takemi's, but he's definitely a genius who works hard."
Guy stroked his chin, thinking to himself, but just then, he suddenly saw a few Anbu mbers approaching them.
