Chapter 146 – Teammates

  Discimer: I don't own Naruto or the Gamer. Please support the official release.

  Hokage Tower - Roof.

  Daichi along with several other kids with the Leaf headband were having their identification photo taken. Each student when their name was called would step forward and have their picture taken.

  Since Daichi and Lee knew each other they stood together to the side. "See I told you Lee. I knew you would pass if you gave it your all." Daichi told Lee.

  "Yes. Thank you for believing i still feels so surreal to hold this headband."

  Daioticed several students looking at him. He ighem since he knew most of them were going to fail at the real Geni. As he looked through the crowd his eyes soon found a long haired kid with the iic white eyes of the Hyuga .

  'So that's Neji Hyuga. Looks just like in my memories. I sense his arrogance from here.' Daichi dismissed him immediately and looked around. Aside from Neji aen he didn't find anyone else iing.

  As Daichi's name was called he stepped forward in front of the camera. He could hear several students murmuring his name and could hear their versation.

  Neji Hyuga looked at the brown haired kid who walked up when the name was called.

  'So that's him. Daichi Hekima. The one Daikoku sensei calls a prodigy. Looks like he took early graduation. I wonder how strong he is. He doesn't look like he's from any . And he's associated with Lee. So he 't be that strong.'

  Tenten also looked at the undercssmen who graduated with them. 'I wonder who's team he's going to be in?'

  Several students had different thoughts as they saw Daichi fill out the ninja registration form and leave without even aowledging them. There were several who had frowns on their faces that someone a year youhan them was graduating with them.

  Hokage office.

  Hiruzehrough ead every report the academy instructors prepared on the graduating students. He read their strength, their weakness and the field they would most likely be profit in.

  'It seems this year only has a few good prospects. And based on the report Tsunade sent me, Daichi is the best among them by a wide margin. I o pick a team that bances as well as suits him the best. But that's one problem. I o select a capable Jonin for his team…'

  Hiruzen's mihrough several didates. 'Guy said he wouldn't mind having Daichi on his team. And since Lee and Daichi are good friends they'll get along splendidly. But that leaves a problem. The Rookie of the year. Neji Hyuga. Guy will no doubt be a tremendous help to the boy and help in improving his Taijutsu strength. But if I put Lee, Daichi aogether the team will be pletely unbanced. Hmm…'

  Hiruzehrough Tsunade's report and noted Daichi's skills and areas of training he focused on. 'Daichi had mastered the sed step of all 5 natures. It's truly unpreted. Putting him under Guy won't help him mu terms of Ninjutsu. I remembered the kid telling me he's ied in that field. And based oraining he's been doing the st few years he's following that path… Hmm… It seems Kakashi will be a much better suited teacher to the boy. He'll be able to protect them if any problem arises and being a prodigy himself, he'll be able to keep up with the boy.'

  Hiruzen decided on Kakashi Hatake as Daichi's Jonin instructor and now looked through the css roster to find two students to put oeam. After some time he made his choice.

  'Daichi will need capable teammates. If this team is going to be effit then I 't put just anyone as his teammates.' The Hokage looked through the students that graduated and found ttable didates. 'These two should do. His Taijutsu skills are good. Only behind Neji Hyuga. And under Kakashi he should grow nicely… And the girl is excellent ih and ons. A le fighter and infiltrator. After Neji Hyuga aewo are the best in css. They'll do… I just hope these three pass Kakashi's test.'

  He stamped his seal of approval on the didates and all the teams ahem to the academy. Once his work was doood from his chair and looked out the window. 'Let's see if your team will be the first to pass his test. Surprise me Daichi. I'm curious to see your strength.'

  —-

  29th March - Academy.

  Rock Lee was in his css early. He could see that his cssmates were buzzing with excitement. He was also anxious about his team.

  'I just hope I'm in a team with Guy sensei and Daichi.'

  After a few minutes Daikoku sensei ehe room. He looked at his students with pride.

  "As of today you are all ninjas. You've gohrough difficult ordeals to get to this point. But things will only get more difficult from here on out. Right now you're all Genin. All Genin are grouped into a 3 member team. And each team will have a Jonin leader. Your teams were selected after careful review of your skills and to create a baeam. These are final and there will be no ge."

  Once he was doh his speech Daikoku started calling the teams.

  "Team 01 is….

  … Team 07. Mari Michiyaki, Seto Tomoya and Daichi Hekima under Kakashi Hatake."

  "Team 08-"

  "Wow, hold on, teach. Who's Daichi Hekima?"

  "Yeah. We heard his name being called at the ninja registration site too. But we've never seen him before."

  Daikoku paused and then replied to their questions. "Daichi Hekima is someone who's taken the graduation exam a year early. He's a year below you but don't let that fool you. He's a prodigy and the best. You're lucky to have him on your team. Now moving on… team 08…. Team 09 Rock Lee, Tenten and Neji Hyuga uhe Jonin Might Guy."

  Neji's eyes narrowed as he heard his name being called. 'So I'm on his team huh.'

  The Jonins started ing in and calling their teams one by one. Before long only two people were left in the . Mari Michiyaki aomoya.

  "Where the hell is our Jonin and that other kid?" Yelled Seto to an almost empty .

  —-

  Daichi atiently waiting on a seat in the hallway. Daikoku sensei had e to him earlier and told him about the team. Daichi was surprised to hear that he'll be under Kakashi.

  'I never expected to be part of team 07. And under Kakashi too. This will be iing. He'll definitely give us the bell test… I o make pns to work with my team. He'll only pass if we show teamwork and I have no iion of failing this Genin exam.'

  As Daichi sat there thinking about how to proceed in the real Genier, he saw several Jonin pick up their students. Daichi let out a sigh already knowing where this was going. 'He's te.'

  Daichi sat in the hallway for a few more minutes before he decided to go meet his teammates. 'I o make sure they will work with me. It would be the only way to get the bell. Well… unless I get serious anyway.'

  He opehe css door and was met with two curious stares.

  Seeing he had their attention, Daichi was about to introduce himself. "Hi I'm - "

  "We know who you are. The kid that took an early graduation exam… Listen. You might be the best in your css but that doesn't mean anything to me. Just don't slow us down." Seto Tomoya said with an arrogant smirk.

  Daichi kept quiet as he listened. 'Great. An arrogant jackass.'

  He immediately used 'Observe' on the kid who spoke to him. The boy was wearing a white shirt with bck pants and open toed shoes. He had the leaf headband tied in his forehead. He had bck eyes and had an arrogant smirk as he looked at Daichi.

  'Great… His stats are so far beh me it's not even funny. And he had the gall to say I'm the one who's going to slow him down.'

  Daichi then turned his attention to the girl in the room. She had long bck hair tied in a ponytail and was wearing a violet dress..

  'Her stats are even worse. And she doesn't wanna work with me either… I got a bad feeling about this. Kakashi will test us on teamwork and I'm not sure they're going to listen to me.'

  At that moment Daichi sensed someone's preseside the room. He quickly turned around and faced the closed door of the room.

  The sed the door slowly opened and a man with most of his face covered and silver spiky hair slowly walked into the room. He looked at the three kids in the room for several seds a out a sigh ruffling his hair.

  "My first impression of you. You're all b."

  Daichi crossed his arms and looked at the man while the other two narrowed their eyes.

  "Are you our Jonin sensei?" Seto asked the man.

  "I'm Kakashi Hatake if that's what you're w. Now whether I'm your Jonin sensei or not…." Kakashi chuckled for a few seds and then replied. "That remains to be seen."

  "Wait. What the hell does that mean?"

  "All will be expined shortly. Now meet me on the roof." With those words Kakashi vanished from their view.

  'I could stay here and go with them, but something tells me that won't solve my problems.' Daichi didn't waste another sed and used body flicker and followed behind Kakashi and reached the roof in seds.

  "You're a fast one aren't you?"

  "Yeah. It's been a while. Didn't think you'd be my sensei of all people." Daichi replied, looking at the man.

  Kakashi tilted his head and looked at the boy. The expression his single visible eye portrayed was one of fusion. "Have we met before?"

  Daichi was silent as he heard that question. He looked at the man for a few more seds and then replied.

  "Either you really don't remember me, in which case you have a very poor memory which is not a good trait for a ninja especially a Jonin or you're just trolling me. So which is it? Poor memory or are you just messing with me?"

  Kakashi looked at the kid for a short while without any ge iions and then reached into his bag. He then took out the book Make out Tactid started reading, ign Daichi entirely.

  Daichi had a few veins pop up above his head aook a few deep breaths to calm down. 'This guy is getting on my nerves. Alright Daichi. Calm down. No point iing worked up. You know how he is. Just keep cool and everything will be fine.'

  Daichi decided to stay quiet and sat on a nearby bend the two waited for the others.

  A couple mier they were joined by the other two graduates. Kakashi looked at the three students in front of him. 'I already tell that this team is doomed to fail. But who knows. Maybe they surprise me.'
