  Kakashi was in front of the Memorial Stoaring at a single name. He had been standing there for over two hours as he revisited the memories of his Genin team. The man looked up and noticed the position of the sun and realized how long he had been standing there.

  'It's time to leave. I've kept Daichi waiting long enough.'

  The Jonin looked back at the name engraved oone. 'I'll see you tomorrow Obito.'

  Kakashi turned around and made his way through the forest. His mi back to the versatiohird Hokage had with him sometime ago.

  Fshback.

  "Kakashi, when you get the time I want you to spar with Daichi. See his capabilities. But this time I want you to force him to fight seriously." The old Kage said.

  The silver haired Jonin raised an eyebrow at that. "Is that really necessary?"

  Hiruzen nodded. "Yes. Only after you have a thh uanding of his strength and abilities would you be able to train him effitly. You would also be able to identify his ots if he has any and with training get rid of them."

  "Yes. I'll ha… But… Do you mind me asking… What's this about? You don't normally take such a keen i in a Genin team." The Hokage taking an active i iraining of a fresh Genin was a surprise to Kakashi.

  "True. But your student isn't an ordinary Genin. He is someone who has extraordinary potential and ersonally trained by a former Anbu Captain and a Sannin…"

  "But that's not all is it?"

  Hiruzen smoked his pipe and was silent for a few seds. Letting out a smoky breath he replied. "No. I have received some disturbing news regarding Orochimaru and Danzo. Things will e to a collisioweehree of us soon and the people I've tasked with the matter will be in the middle of it. Kensei is one of those people and what affects Kensei will also affect Daichi. I have no doubt that Orochimaru will e to know of the boy soon if he hasn't already and knowing him, he'll defiry to make tact with the boy."

  Kakashi's eyes wide that. He was armed that someone like that would one day e for his student. "Wait! Orochimaru's ing for the kid? Lord Hokage, I protect him from almost any other Jonin but someone like Orochimaru…"

  "Don't be so armed Kakashi. This isn't something that will happen tomorrow or week. And it's just a possibility. There is also the ce that Orochimaru will leave him alo the probability of that is low. I'm not telling you this thten you but to warn you. Take the necessary precautions."

  The old kage let out a breath and leaned ba his chair. "It's not just Orochimaru but Danzo also has his eye on Daichi but for the moment he won't make any moves. He's more ed with the movements and on-goings of his anization 'Root'."

  Kakashi nodded. "I see. I uand Lord Hokage. I'll test him after the first k mission."

  "Good. You need a clear picture of his strength and abilities if yoing to prepare effit team strategies… Kakashi… As long as Daichi is within these walls he'll be under my prote. But outside… I'm trusting you to keep him safe."

  Kakashi stood straight and nodded his head. He vowed he would keep that word no matter what.

  Fshbad.

  Kakashi had an idea as to what he had to do. Before long he reached the clearing of Training ground 3 and saw Daichi meditating. 'One day I'm gonna figure out the secret behind that…'

  Sensing Kakashi's presence Daichi opened his eyes.

  "M sensei."

  "M. Ready for today's mission?"

  "Yeah. You said we were going to do something different."

  "We are." Kakashi walked to the nearby three stumps and pced an arm clo top of the one in the middle.

  Daichi looked at the se a a sense of Deja Vu. 'Wow…'

  Ohe timer was set Kakashi looked at his student. "Today you and I will be doing a survival test. And this one is going to be a lot different than the one we had at the beginning."

  Daiarrowed his eyes as he heard those words. 'Something's different about him today. He's a lot more serious than usual.'

  "What kind of survival test?" Daichi asked his sensei.

  At that question Kakashi's face turned serious as he looked at the boy and revealed his killing i.

  [You have sensed Killing I]

  Daichi's eyes wide the implication of Kakashi's a.

  The Jonin looked at his student and spoke. His voice was ced with a menag tone. "Daichi, for this test I'll be ing at you with the io kill. I'll try to capture and subdue you. And if that isn't possible I'll try to kill you. Yoal is to defend against my assaults aher defeat me or escape. Survival is the priority of this exercise. Right now it's 10:30 in the m. This survival test will st till exactly midnight. You'll pass if you successfully defend against my attacks, defeat me or if you hide from me till the time runs out. You aren't permitted to leave the training ground till the end of the test. If you do, you fail. If I capture you, you fail. And if you die to one my killing blows… Well… Try not to die."

  Daichi ched his fists as he looked at the man. He was already releasing chakra throughout his body and reparing for the ing battle. At that moment a quest appeared in front of him. He quickly read the tents of the quest.

  Kakashi tinued. "Ahis in mind. If you don't use your full power, all your skills and teiques, you will suffer a painful end."

  "I uand. I won't hold back." Daichi replied, releasing his i as well. The air became heavy and the sound of birds flying away from the forest could be heard.

  Up in the Hokage tower Hiruzen was watg everything through his crystal ball. 'This isly what I had in mind but I suppose it will have to do. This way Kakashi will be able to determine Daichi's stamina and stealth skills, medical prowess and his profi the ninja arts… But still… He's just 12 years old. A child. Would this be too much for him?'

  Ba the training ground Kakashi decided to make the first move. "Begin." As the words were spoken the Jonin was already moving at high speed towards Daichi with a punch aimed for his face.

  Daichi's heightened tration and senses allowed him to track every move that his sensei made. He saw the man ing at him in slow motion with his left fist tightly ched and Daichi's mind began to work faster. His first instinct was to dodge using substitution but there was something preventing him from making that decision. His pride.

  'Even after all this time, after all the training, the dungeon fights, if I just run away when someorohan me shows up without even putting up a fight then what does that say about the time I spent grinding myself to the bone… A waste.'

  It was only a split sed but Kakashi was already on him. His left fist ing towards his student.

  Even as the Gamer's Mi him calm, Daichi's face turned into one filled with rage.

  'Fuck that!'

  Chakra flooded his body and with a greater speed than Kakashi, Daichi threw his right fist. His punch directly aimed at his teacher's ining one.

  The Jonin's eye wide the speed dispyed by the boy. A moment ter both fists collided.

  "BOOM!"

  Wind whipped around them from the force of the two attacks meeting head on. The ground cracked below the two but her one budged an inch.

  "Since you're intending to fight me head o's begin with Taijutsu." Kakashi said as he threw another punch with his right arm aimed for Daichi's throat.

  The young gamer swiftly parried and redirected the attack away from him. He then immediately sent a krike aimed at Kakashi's ribs. The Jonin jumped back, esg the strike but Daichi didn't let up. He quickly rushed at Kakashi and they began their intense hand to hand bat.

  Daichi used the skill Analyze to uand his oppo's fighting style and attack patterns. Even though the fight would have been seen as fast paced to most, the battle was only just beginning. Both of them were only testing the waters and feeling out their oppo's skills.

  Kakashi sent several powerful punches aimed at Daichi's chest, biceps and ribs. All of which Daichi successfully blocked or parried. 'His Taijutsu skills are incredible. And on top of that his battle senses are far beyond what someone his age should have. And this is only just the start.'

  Just as Kakashi was making notes on his student, Daichi was also doing the same to his teacher. 'He's not blog but redireg all of my punches. He's trying to serve energy. That's not a surprise. This is going to st over 12 hours after all. This is a good opportunity for me to go all out. To see where I stand in this world. Kakashi. You will be an excellent measuring stick.'

  Daichi sent a punch aimed at his enemy's liver only for Kakashi to blod grab that fist. Immediately Daichi sent a roundhouse kick aimed for the man's head. Kakashi raised his other hand and blocked the kid the instant leaned his upper body back to avoid the krike that came for his .

  The Jonin swiftly retaliated with a kick towards Daichi's abdomen ahe boy flying. Kakashi ran after his student i on attag him before he could reorient and defend himself.

  Daichi gritted his teeth as he saw his sensei ing for him. In mid air he quickly took out several shuriken and threw them at the man and swiftly went through several seals.

  'Shadow shuriken Jutsu.'

  The few metal stars quickly became over a dozen, f Kakashi to ge his path and dodge the oning projectiles.

  These few seds were all Daieeded to safely nd on the ground a his footing.

  Both of them looked at each other and took in their oppo's ditioher one was hurt or even out of breath.

  It was Daichi who broke the silence. "What do you say we take things up a notch or two?"

  The silver haired Jonin smirked at that. "Funny. I was thinking the same thing. You know. You might be my favorite stude."

  Daichi deadpa that. "I'm your only student." With those words Daichi pced a hand on his scarf. "I'll show you just how strong I really am."

  The momeook the scarf over his head and threw it to the side.

  "Boom." The sound of a heavy object falling on the ground was heard and the ground slightly caved uhe weight of the round scarf.

  Kakashi was surprised at that revetion. 'He was wearied clothes?'

  "How much does that weigh?" The man asked.

  "500 Kilos." Daichi replied with a smirk.

  Kakashi and the watg Hokage were shocked as they heard how much it weighed.

  Daichi moved his head side to side a his shoulder pop. "I feel much better now. Been a long time siook those off."

  "Well then, I suppose it's my turn." With those words Kakashi simply lifted the clothing c his left eye and that a alone would be enough to intimidate most but Daichi was not one of them. Kakashi revealed the Sharingan to his student for the first time.

  Daichi looked at the red eye with 3 tomoe and spoke. "Kakashi of the Sharingan, The Copy inja… You got many names don't you… I've always wao fight you."

  Kakashi looked at Daichi and then became serious again. "Don't get too overfident. It will be your undoing."

  The boy smirked at that. He cracked his knuckles and spoke. "Funny. I was about to say the same thing."

  Killing I ignited again as both of them got ready for the sed round of battle.
