Chapter 48 - Innocence

Nevertheless to say, Hiramasu had been dropping hints to the team that the Chunin exams were going to be held in the near future.

And was implying that he wasn't going to register them into the exam.

And unlike Yujiro and Mujin had seen through Hiramasu's lie.

Hyori had actually ate up all of Hiramasu's lies.

When Hyori finally came to her senses she was about to talk when Hiramasu's words cut her off.

"Now that it's confirmed that you are going to participate in the Chunin exams a month from now, we are going to have special training."

When Hiramasu was talking the trio could hear maliciousness in his words.

Especially Hyori, when Hiramasu turned in her direction when he said the latter part of his sentence.

Just when she was going to talk again Hiramasu spoke up once again.

"So tomorrow if you have a wish to learn something especially, you can request to do so.

If it's something reasonable, I will help you."

When Hiramasu finished his words he used the body flicker jutsu to vanish from his position.

Just as Hyori was about to talk again.

Yujiro then talked over her once again.

"See you tomorrow, I hope you guys can take his training tomorrow.

After he finished he flickered and vanished just like Hiramasu.

Mujin, who picked up what they were doing, repeated it once more.

Just as Hyori was about to speak he spoke over her.

"Bye Hyori, see you tomorrow."

And like that he too vanished.

All that was left on the scene was Hyori gasping like a fish.

The next day at 5 AM. Before any of the trio could get a word in, Hiramasu created 2 clones and told them what to do.

"Hyori follow this clone and go near the training course.

Mujin follow this clone and go to the forest.

Yujiro, stay here."

After the trio were separated, Hiramasu asked Yujiro a question.

"Though you are the one that has grown the most under my tutelage, what do you think you lack the most currently or what do you think you need to improve the most currently?"

When Yujiro heard this question he sat on the ground for a minute and pondered.

"I don't specifically know, but if I had to choose I would say my basic physical ability.

But that's not something that can be increased rapidly, it takes a lot of time, so if I had to say, I would need something lethal that will separate me from the people of my level.

And i have thought for a long time to learn how to use chakra flow and proper sword usage , but with all the training you have piled on our heads I haven't really had the time."

After hearing Yujiro's answer Hiramasu was extremely surprised as he looked at Yujiro.

"While training your body is always a priority, to increase your combat power alot in a short amount of time, chakra flow is extremely good, especially in close range combat.

But as I have seen your battles, you can pretty easily force your opponents into a short range combat with your high speed and high mastery in earth release."

Hiramasu paused as he looked at Yujiro seriously.

"But chakra flow is hard to learn, and it sits at a gray zone."

When Yujiro heard what Hiramasu said he became confused.

"What do you mean that it sits at a gray zone?"

"What I mean is that I can't teach this technique to many people in the village without harming Senju clans relationship with the land of iron."

When Yujiro heard this he finally understood.

'I remember now, because Senju Hashirama guaranteed the land of iron as a neutral country, they as a gesture of gratitude allowed some members of the Senju clan to learn their saber techniques.'

After mulling about it for a while he sighed.

*Sigh

'I never thought that chakra flow originated from the land of iron.

Though looking back on it now it's quite reasonable as they are the main users of swords, and it makes perfect sense that they invented the chakra flow to increase the lethality of their strikes.'

When he thought of this he became quite dejected.

'Now what that was my optimal solution for increasing my close range lethality.

Will I now have to learn the Rasengan, but how the hell am I supposed to explain it's origin to the village?'

While Yujiro was having a bad time due to Hiramasu's refusal, Hiramasu himself was looking at Yujiro troubled expression with euphoria.

'You brat, you have egged on your team mates eccentricities for far too long, it's time for me to get some payback for the trouble they have caused.'

After watching Yujiro's troubles for a couple of minutes he finally gave him an way out.

"You know Hyori has been causing alot of trouble, and I haven't figured out who has helped her, if you figure out who has helped her and stop them I might help you out with the chakra flow and sword techniques."

When Yujiro heard his senseis words he became speechless.

'Seriously, the Senju clan's relationship with the land of iron can be thrown out of the window for minor convince.'

Though he was exasperated with his sensei, he didn't show it on his face.

"Yes sensei, I will definitely stop helping Hyori with her mischief."

Now when Hiramasu heard Yujiro's honestly, he almost pulled his back and looked at Yujiro like he was an alien.

'Seriously, how can you say that with such an innocent expression?

Are you even human?'

Though Hiramasu was grumbling about Yujiro in his mind, he wouldn't get answers to his questions.
