Chapter 22 - Team

While the graduation exam was ongoing a person was looking at the school grounds where the practical fighting was ongoing.

After Yujiro's fight he started to ponder.

After a while of thinking he called out to the room.

"Call Hiramasu here."

While he was waiting for Hiramasu, he was waiting at the kids practical fights.

After a while a figure knocked on the door.

"Come in and close the door."

Hiruzen called out.

"You're looking worse for wear in comparison to two years ago."

Hiramasu commented.

"Who doesn't, in just 3 years we went from unchallenged position to a precarious position, due unfortunate events happening one after another.

Hiruzen annoyedly replied, biting on his pipe.

After a second of mourning Hiramasu asked.

"So why did you call me here?"

After collecting himself Hiruzen asked a question in response.

"Would you like to become a Jonin sensei?"

"Huh why did you suddenly ask?"

Hiramasu confusedly asked.

"It's because I saw a talented kid, and wanted to put him together with a clan member of yours, and asked if you wanted to mentor another genin squad."

"Huh, there shouldn't be any talented kids graduating from my clan this year.

You wouldn't ask me to mentor a normal Senju."

"It's Senju Mujin, he is graduating early."

"That rascal, I thought his parents didn't allow him to undergo the early graduation?"

Hiramasu asked.

"Yes that's what I heard too, but he secretly submitted the application form."

Hiruzen answered.

"Sigh who will be his Jonin leader of I don't volunteer?"

Hiramasu asked.

"It will probably be a special Jonin Senju Yamatsu."

Hiruzen promptly gave an answer.

"Sigh, and we don't have any other suitable Jonin to assign him, do we?"

Hiramasu stated.

"No, but you are not only assigned to Mujin due to the fact that you are clan members, it's also because I discovered an extremely talented Hyuga kid, who specializes in earth and lightning release, which is why I want you to help him out a bit."

Hiruzen stated.

"Who is the third teammate?"

Hiramasu asked.

"It's Kurama Hyori, she's an extremely talented kid who specializes in genjutsu, her only downside is that she doesn't have a strong physical ability.

That's why I wish you to train her along with the other two."

Hiruzen stated.

"Okay, when do I have to show up?"

Hiramasu asked.

"Tomorrow 9 AM." Hiruzen promptly gave an answer.

Hiramasu left the room.

On his way to home he started to think.

'Sigh while it will eat up some of my time, I will just consider this a paid vacation.

Though a vacation needs entertainment, and I just happen to have a couple of students to fill my boredom.'

"Hehe."

After thinking such, he let out a malicious laugh.

The next day, in their old classroom.

Almost immediately after the clock turned 9 AM, Yujiro, and his teammates were called to gather at training ground 32.

After arriving there together, the three were told to sit down.

After sitting down, they were told to introduce themselves.

And like clock work a girl asked a question.

"Sensei, how should we introduce ourselves?"

An imperceptible twitch appeared on Yujiro's lips.

'These really are default questions.'

"Likes, dislikes, your dreams and goals."

Yujiro who knew all this beforehand went first.

"My name is Hyuga Yujiro. I like good food, I dislike the pain war causes, and I dream of bringing peace to the ninja world."

'Hmm though this is a bit exaggerated, if I can get a hair's worth of benefits using these words it will be worth it.'

Yujiro schemed.

'Hmm a good kid, though he's talented, he seems a bit naive.'

Hiramasu on the other hand had positive views about Yujiro. Though if he knew what he was thinking he would have probably blasted him to another dimension.

Next went Mujin.

"My name is Senju Mujin. I like barbeque, I dislike ramen and I want to become hokage!"

Immediately Yujiro took a weird look at Mujin.

Up next Kurama Hyori energetically piped up.

"My name is Kurama hyori. I like genjutsu and dream of becoming the number one genjutsu user of all time! I hate taijutsu practice."

'Well good luck surpassing Shisui, Itachi, Madara, and all the previous reincarnations of Indra.'

"Good! Every last one of you has wonderful dreams, and my mission is to help you achieve those goals, but there is a condition.

Tomorrow we will gather at this training ground at 8 AM, and we will have a test if you will become my students."

Hiramasu announced.

"But sensei, didn't we already graduate from the ninja academy?

And you didn't even introduce yourself!"

Hyori annoyedly replied.

Hiramasu, amused, decided to annoy his students a bit.

"Fine. My name is Senju Hiramasu, what I like is many things, what I don't like is also many things, and I dream of doing many things.

And while you graduated from the ninja academy, you have yet to gain my approval as such I can still fail you and send you back."

After saying it Hiramasu left without any of the three seeing it.

While Hyori and Mujin were extremely annoyed, Yujiro was practically laughing in his mind.

'As of we are going to be sent back, all of us are extremely talented, even if we threw kunais to the opposite direction of you we would still pass.

Although I can see why he did that, these two seem extremely pissed.'

After musing for a while Yujiro saw the two of them starting to leave, he became a bit speechless.

"Hey you guys are not seriously going to leave directly, are you?"

Yujiro quickly called out before they left.

"Why wouldn't we leave?" Hyori impatiently asked.

Mujin on the other hand remained calm, as he knew Yujiro wouldn't call them out for nothing.

"You do realize that we will probably fight him tomorrow? We should familiarize ourselves with each other's abilities so we can coordinate better tomorrow.

And we should all gather more information about him, and meet up tomorrow early before our gathering time, how about 7.30 AM?"

After a moment of pondering the two of them agreed, as such they spent the next two hours practicing their moves together.
