The Next Day.
It was Sunday morning. Daichi woke up and just stayed in bed thinking about everything that's happened.
'Looks like I need to change my plans a bit. I'll save the dungeon fight for March. I need to train more. And I've built up enough chakra for the Shadow Clone jutsu. I need to increase the speed of my training.'
Daichi got up and went downstairs. He greeted his grandfather who was reading a book and went to the kitchen to get a bite to eat. Once he had his breakfast he went near Kensei and sat down.
"So how was yesterday's adventure?" Kensei asked nonchalantly.
"You heard that huh!" Daichi wasn't surprised his grandfather had heard about it.
"Yeah. Not many academy students can stand up to an Anbu's intent." Hiruzen spoke about the entire incident with Kensei and the old man was impressed with Daichi's strong will.
"How are you feeling? With everything that's happened?" He asked in a slightly gentle tone.
"I'm not happy with the way things ended but I understand."
"Every experience, no matter good or bad, is a teacher to us. It shapes how we think and how we act. The smart ones are those who learn and try not to repeat their past mistakes." Kensei shared his thoughts with Daichi.
"Yeah. I learned quite a bit and. The whole thing was Fruitful. Helped a lot in many ways." Daichi thought back to the special stat and item he got as a reward. His desire to beco stronger had also increased.
"As long as you don't lose yourself along the way, you're fine."
Daichi nodded to Kensei's wise words.
"Hey gramps"
"What is it?"
"Can you teach the Shadow clone Jutsu.?" When Daichi asked this, Kensei looked at him.
Kensei assessed his chakra and deed him capable of creating a few clones. Kensei took Daichi to his library and took out a couple of scrolls. He handed them to Daichi.
"These are the scrolls for the Shadow clone jutsu and the Body Flicker technique. Figured it might co in handy for you."
Hearing Kensei's words made Daichi excited. He wanted to start training right away. Daichi wanted to see if he could take the Body Flicker technique to the sa level or even beyond Shisui Uchiha's perfection.
-----------------------------
Days passed with Daichi maintaining the top spot at the academy. The incident also changed Naruto's life as well.
Daichi noticed that he was more happy with Shikamaru and the gang playing around with him. They would also stand up for Naruto when others picked on him. His pranks, although lessened, haven't stopped. And sotis Kiba, Choji and Shikamaru would join him in skipping class. Daichi would play and hang around with them but it was only on a few occasions. His focus was on training.
One of the major changes Daichi noticed was about Ino. Whenever he looked at her, she would blush and look away. Daichi wasn't sure why at first but knowing the cliches of an ani world he had an idea. And he decided he wasn't going to touch that topic with a 10 foot pole.
Daichi's Ho.
It was a weekend and Daichi was currently in the middle of training with Kensei supervising it. Daichi had two of his shadow clones throw shuriken and kunai at him while he tried to dodge the incoming projectiles. His goal was to improve his 'sense stat' and thus his senses.
The next dungeon Daichi was going to open was a Key dungeon as well. But it would have enemy ninjas instead of wild beasts. He wanted to be at his absolute best and prepare for the battles that's going to co his way. As Daichi dodged or deflected the tals aid at him his instincts improved.
[ 1 SENSE]
Over three hours had passed since he started this training.
'Co on. Just a bit more. I need to improve my stamina as well. I doubt I'd be able to rest and recover in enemy territory.'
Just as he dodged a hail of shuriken and deflected a kunai with one of his own, the special stat STAMINA had an increase as well.
[ 1 STAMINA]
'Finally!! Ti to put an end to this.' Daichi increased his speed with the Body Flicker technique and got behind a shadow clone. A hard punch to its spine and it vanished into smoke.
'Wow. That feels so weird. It seems I'm still getting used to that sensation.'
Daichi senses imdiately alerted him to the weapons coming from the second clone. He deflected all of them with his kunai and rushed the clone. Both Daichi and his clone started attacking each other at a fast pace. His clone used 'body flicker' to dodge so of the punches aid at him and blocked the rest.
Daichi swiftly switched tactics and restrained the clone with chakra threads and before his clone could retaliate Daichi dispatched it with several shuriken.
'Looks like my reaction ti has improved. Not bad.' Just as he was relishing in his victory, Daichi heard the whistle of shurikens flying. He imdiately jumped high barely dodging the tal stars and watched them bury deep into the trunk of the tree behind him. Daichi looked towards the culprit.
"What the hell old man.!!! That could've seriously hurt if it had hit ."
"But it didn't. And you're not hurt.!" Kensei said in a nonchalant manner. Daichi looked at his grandpa incredulously.
Kensei chuckled but then in a sowhat serious tone spoke. "On a battlefield you should never let your guard down, even when you think you're victorious. That's the mont a cunning enemy strikes his foe."
As Daichi heard these words he cald down. At that mont the scene of Tobirama Senju striking down Izuna Uchiha ca to his mind. 'He's right. I need to be absolutely careful when I'm fighting soone. I can't let my strength get to my head.'
"I understand Gramps."
Kensei nodded. Both of them ended the training and simply enjoyed the rest of the day.
-----------------
Months passed and soon it was February 12th. Daichi just finished his training with Ren and was about to leave but the Uchiha stopped him.
"Hey. Daichi. Co on. There's soone I want you to et at ho." Ren said with a smile.
"Ohh so I finally get to et your daughter huh.!"
"Yeah. Co on! One day you'll be Uncle Daichi to her. Hahaha" Ren laughed walking ahead.
Daichi was glad he had the Gar's Mind turned on. Otherwise he would have grimaced and freaked out as he thought about their fates, and Ren would have picked up on that.
'If I recall, the Uchiha are currently under surveillance If I go to their clanwill the Anbu beco a headache for ...?? But I can't decline his invitation without it sounding strange.' Daichi lightly sighed and decided to go through with this.
They reached the gates of the Uchiha compound. Ren's ho was near the border of the walls surrounding the compound. It didn't take them long to reach his ho. On the way Daichi noticed several Uchiha looking at both of them with contempt. Daichi expected such a look for him but he was surprised that they were also aid at Ren. His friend walked ho as if he didn't see anything wrong, so Daichi decided he wouldn't ask about the situation.
"I'm hoAnd I've brought a friend.!" Ren called out.
He guided Daichi inside his ho. Daichi went into the living room behind Ren and found a woman feeding a bottle of milk to a baby.
"Daichi! et my wife Kimiko Uchiha. Kimiko. This is the young prodigy I told you about." Ren introduced them.
"Hello." Daichi waved.
"Hi. Ren told he was teaching a talented academy student. I'm happy to finally et you."
Daichi politely nodded and used 'Observe' on them.
