  Hearing the sunade's eyes slightly narrowed but other than that there was no ge in her expression.

  She remembered the versation she had with the man several months ago.

  Tsunade had told him that she would only meet the boy and only after assessing him would she even sider taking him under her. She made sure to emphasize that she was only doing this as a favor to her old sensei.

  Kensei agreed and said that he would keep her identity secret. He wao surprise the kid.

  'So this is the boy huh. It seems Kensei really didn't tell him about me. Well… I'm not going to spoil the fun…'

  Tsunade looked at the child who was finishing his pte. 'At first he came off as rude but he surprisingly has a respectful personality. Still… I o see if he's as good as sensei makes him out to be.'

  Tsuook another swig from her bottle. "Kensei huh. You're his grandson?"

  Daichi looked up at that. "You know him?"

  "We've met." The medinin didn't eborate any further and tinued her drinking.

  Daichi had a thoughtful fabsp;'Hmm… In hindsight I should have guessed that. Kensei is from the third Hokage's geion. And he was strong and formidable enough to have a niame. So it stands to reason that she knows him.'

  Daichi looked at the woman who was currently more trated on her alcohol than anything else. 'Is it possible…' A thought appeared in Daichi's mind but he dismissed it, thinking it was absurd.

  Daichi looked out the nearby window and saw that it was getting te. 'I better head back. And I don't want to overstay my wele.'

  Daichi got ready to leave. "It's getting really dark out. I should get bae. Again, it was an honor to meet you Lady Tsunade. Miss Shizune…"

  Daiodded to the two of them. Tsunade didn't even bother looking at him and just gave a small wave of her hand indig her dismissal while Shizune was more courteous.

  "Good night Daichi. Get home safe."

  Daichi left the restaurant after paying the bill for the table.

  "So that's the child Kensei and Lord Jiraiya were talking about huh." Shizune spoke after Daichi left.

  "It seems so." Tsunade looked at the exit and then turo her apprentice. "Did you notice?"

  Shizune's face turned serious. "Yes. His footsteps. It didn't make any sounds. And his prese was simir to those who ceal their chakras. I wouldn't have even noticed him if he hadn't spoken."

  Shizune was there during the meeting with Kensei. She was surprised that the Hokage was makieacher take on audent.

  Tsunade nodded with her student. She kneable ninja when she saw one. From just this oera she knew Daichi was more than he seemed.

  A smirk slowly formed in her fabsp;'Looks like this trip will be more iing than I thought.'

  —-

  Daichi walked through the illumireets of the capital. The lights ing from the fanterns gave off a festive atmosphere.

  'My 'observe' didn't show anything on Tsu I was able to get some information on her apprentice. Based oats I'd say Shizune is currently in the middle of the Jonirum. A student of a Sannin and a talented medija that very few match.'

  Daichi thought about the eera and there were many things he was now unsure about.

  He walked home with several thoughts running through his mind. 'It's just a ce that she and Jiraiya are here. Isn't it…?'

  Daichi couldn't get rid of the feeling that he was missing something. He soon reached his home and greeted his grandfather who was enjoying the calm atmosphere in the small backyard.

  "How was your sed day at the capital?" Kensei asked him.

  "Very iing. More than I thought actually…" Daichi replied.

  "Oh?" Kensei raised an eyebrow at that.

  Daichi decided to tell his grandfather about Tsunade's visit. He wao know if the presence of two Sannin here was just a ce or not.

  "I met Lady Tsunade and her apprentice." Daichi looked at Kensei for a rea but he didn't get one.

  Kensei kept an impassive face but he khat a non answer was also an answer. Looking at the boy's expression he sighed. Kensei decided to tell the boy about his soon to be teacher.

  Daichi saw Kensei let out a small breath and his eyes widened. 'No way. Is it possible that she's the one who's going to train me?' Daichi didn't want to jump to any clusions and decided to hear it from Kensei's mouth.

  "I think you've dragged the suspense on for too long. Will you tell me who's ing to train me?" Daichi asked him.

  "I wao keep this a surprise but… As you may have already guessed, it's the woman you've met. Tsunade Senju. The most profit medija in the world."

  Daichi's eyes widened. "But I thought she wasn't ied in taking any students and she's not currently an active ninja." 'Did I ge something or am I wrong?'

  "What you've said is true. And normally she wouldn't have agreed to take audent under her wing but this ecial order from Hiruzen. She's doing this as a favor to him. I also told her that she would be doing me a favor as well by teag you." Kensei replied.

  Daichi was surprised. 'I uand Kensei… But the Hokage ordered her to as well? So that's why she's here. And the fact that Jiraiya is here as well…'

  Gears started turning in Daichi's head faster and he deduced several things. 'Kensei must have told the Hokage about my training pns and since he knows my talents the Hokage must have decided to seo the best medic out there. He must have made tact with Tsuhrough Jiraiya. That also means Jiraiya knows about me and is at least aware of my talents… '

  Daichi crossed his arms and thought about the whole thing. 'When I saw her in the restaurant, for a split sed I thought that maybe she was the one Kensei had arrao teach me… But I dismissed that thought immediately. Currently she's someone who doesn't like responsibilities and hates the position of Hokage. Someone who's haunted by the memories of her loved ones and stu the past. I thought for sure that she would never agree to being a mentor for anyone… So I cluded that her being here now was just a ce. Looks like I was wrong. Did she ge or is there something else going on?'

  "Did she really agree to train me in mediinjutsu?" Daichi asked with anticipation.

  Kensei slightly winced. "Well, teically all she said was that she would give you a shot. So there is a great ce she could reject you."

  "I see." Daiodded. 'That makes more sense. Based on what I uand from the series, she still has some respect for her former sensei and is probably meeti of obligation. She has a strong temperament and this is the best deal Kensei could make with her.'

  Kensei got up from his chair. "We're going to meet her tomorrow. At that moment she'll decide if she wants to be your teacher or not…"

  Daiodded. "I'll be ready for whatever she throws at me."

  Kensei looked at the fident child and his worries lessened. 'Whatever tests she puts him through, I'm sure he will get past them.'

  —-

  It was m and Kensei and Daichi were in front of an apartment. Kensei knocked on the door and waited for a few seds.

  The door opened and Shizune appeared. "Good m Kensei. Hello Daichi." She greeted the two ahem inside.

  As Daichi stepped inside a voice spoke, addressing him.

  "So you're the kid sealked about huh… You don't look like much."

  Daichi looked in the dire the voice came from and saw that it was Jiraiya. He was sitting on the baly at the other ehe open window. Daichi looked at the other sannin sitting in the er of the room and the small pig near her.

  "He's just a little brat. What exactly did you expect?" Tsunade gave her thoughts.

  "Daichi, that's Lord Jiraiya and you've already met Lady Tsunade." Kensei gave a simple introdu.

  Jiraiya looked affronted with that introdu. "Hey that's not how you introdueone as great as me." He jumped and nded in the middle of the roht in front of Daichi.

  A smoke suddenly appeared c his entire body. When it cleared, it showed that Jiraiya had summoned a human sized toad and was standing atop its head in a strange pose.

  "Listen well young one, wherever I go men gaze at me with admiration and resped women all over the world fall for my charms. I am her than the holy sage of Mt. Myoboku. Jiraiya." The man stood on one leg with his haended and shook his head in an exaggerated fashion.

  Daichi looked at the man with wide eyes and his mouth was slightly open. He was excited to meet the legendary warrior and it showed on his fabsp;'Oh wow. This is really happening.'

  Jiraiya looked at Daichi for a rea and saw the awe and admiration in Daichi's eyes. He thought he had impressed the kid. 'Yes. Be at awe in my presence… Hahaha…'

  Tsunade looked at her teammate and then towards Daichi and couldn't help but let out a tired sigh. 'Don't tell me that kid fell for that. I thought he was smart.'

  Daichi immediately bowed and introduced himself. "It is an honor to meet you, Lord Jiraiya. My name is Daichi Hekima."

  Jiraiya ughed merrily. "Proper respect from the young ones is rare these days. I'll let you have some signed copies of my books."

  "Please don't." Kensei interrupted him and gave Jiraiya the stink eye. He was one of the few that resisted the temptations of the book 'Make out tactics.'

  "You don't look surprised to see us. So yrandfather told you why I'm here?!" Tsu up and asked Daichi.

  Daiodded his head. "I mentioned our meeting aold me that you would be my teacher."

  "That remains to be seen, little boy."

  Jiraiya stepped bad dismissed his summon. Tsunade looked at Daichi and came to a decision. 'Sensei knows what I've been through. So what would prompt him to suddenly make this decision? I have to find out.'

  "Raise your hands and gather some chakra in your palms. Keep the chakra flow steady until I tell you otherwise. And stop suppressing your chakra." Tsunade said to the boy.

  Daichi obeyed without asking any questions. He had been using the 'Chakra Suppression' skill and had been steadily leveling it up. 'Si's e to this I won't hold back. I o make sure she will take me as a student.'

  Daichi raised his hands with his palms fag upwards. He trated his chakra on his palms and stopped the suppression skill. Everyone in the room felt the rge chakra flowing through the boy.

  The adults in the room were shocked when they sensed his chakra volume but they kept a ral face.

  Shizune was shocked as she looked at the kid. 'This child. His chakra reserves, it feels evehan mine. And to suppress it to such a degree… His trol is no doubt beyond average.'

  Kensei looked at his grandson beside him and even though he expected it he was still surprised. 'His growth rate is incredible.'

  Jiraiya had a lifetime of practi maintaining a poker face. He had heard about the boy's capabilities but seeing it felt entirely different. 'This kid isn't from any d he isn't holding a tailed beast. So for him to produce this much chakra at his age… Only Jonin level ninjas and above have this much reserves. Looks like sensei wasn't kidding about this kid's strength.'

  Tsunade kept a calm face but was now intrigued about the child's capabilities. 'Time to see what you're made of.'

  Daichi's test to bee a medija usunade had begun.
