Chapter 38 - Path as a ninja

When Mujin and Hyori heard that annoyed tone, they realized that Hiramasu wasn't intending to register them for the next chunin exams.

So they simply told them the question Yujiro asked them along with the assumptions they had made.

Along with that they still made the final effort to make him register them to the chunin exam.

"But sensei, since we have already successfully completed the minimum requirements to enter the chunin exams, can we at least enter them for some practice?"

"No, get back to training."

When Hiramasu gave them a firm refusal they were surprised.

"What come, you don't even give us a reason?"

"With our team work we should do pretty well in the exams!

So atleast give us a chance."

While his teammates were annoying Hiramasu, Yujiro had already stood up and started running.

When Hyori and Mujin realized that Hiramasu wasn't going to budge, they tried to seek help from their teammate, only to realize that he had already started to train.

After they saw that they obediently started to run as well.

After the two trouble makers stopped trying to change Hiramasu's mind his thoughts wandered to another direction.

6 months ago, when Hiramasu accepted the trio as his squad.

Hokages office.

"Hiramasu, try and push them to be as strong as possible. With our current precious position, we need to make them as strong as possible in the shortest amount of time.

So don't dump them into the chunin exams as soon as possible.

Train them for at least a year so they can shine brightly in the Chunin exams."

Hiruzen requested.

"So you want them to get strong enough to impress the daimyos of other nations?"

Hiramasu asked.

"Yes, we need to show the other nations that despite our enormous losses, Konoha will always produce more talent to fill up the fallen.

But also you will most likely stay as their team leader until one of them has enough strength to lead them in B rank missions safely."

When Hiramasu heard Hiruzens request he made a realistic comment.

"If that's the case, they will probably need at least 2 years of my protection until they are ready.

And I can't guarantee that their strength will match your expectations.

After all, it will mostly depend on their talent and effort."

When Hiruzen heard Hiramasu's doubts he chuckled a bit.

"You don't need to worry that much apart from Hyori whose training enthusiasm is quite low, the effort Mujin and Yujiro put in has been at the top of the academy for the past two years, so I'm hoping that their effort will encourage Hyori to work as hard as them.

And you won't need to worry about their talents, you should already know about the talent of your clan member, and Hyori is not that far behind him in terms of talent, after all she has already mastered multiple C rank genjutsus.

And Yujiro, like Itachi, is a rare genius.

Though he slightly lags behind Itachi, though that's probably because Fugaku took Itachi to the battlefield that stimulated Itachi in turn.

And unlike Itachi who had gotten the personal teachings of Fugaku.

Yujiro has gotten minimal assistance from his clan."

When Hiramasu heard Hiruzen's explanation, he initially was quite pleased but became confused later.

"What do you mean about Yujiro, is it that he's shunned in the Hyuga clan or?"

Hiruzen corrected him immediately.

"Its nothing of the sort, it's that he has tried to learn everything to its limit on his own, and only when he experiences something that he can't get over does he finally ask for help."

When Hiramasu heard that, he was relieved.

Back to the current time.

Hiramasu was watching the three sweat in the scorching summer sun.

He kept handing them water on their short minute breaks before he shooed them back to training.

And before long it was already 5 in the afternoon.

"You are done for today.

Like usual we will have Yakiniku Q this Friday."

After he said that he left.

When Yujiro reached his home he went to take a long hot shower.

After he came out, he started making himself food.

While he was making his chicken, rice and veggies.

He kept reading the biological knowledge he had been given by the clan.

This knowledge included but was not limited to, Byakugan training methods, ninja biology, effects of yin and yang release on Byakugan, medical ninjutsu of Hyuga clan, Hyuga poison knowledge.

These are the topics Yujiro had asked the clan for before their last streak of missions.

While he was eating he was thinking of all the knowledge he was handed today. He was also considering his future path as a ninja.

'Hmm from my current stand point, I have a good foundation in all categories of ninja discipline.

Be it Ninjutsus, taijutsu, genjutsus, ninjutsu, shurikenjutsu or even medical ninjutsu.

Although my Genjutsu and shuriken jutsu are pretty basic for a genin, I still can match an average genin who specializes in those things easily.

And my main focus has always been taijutsu and ninjutsu.

And while I can't cast an elaborate genjutsu, I am still extremely proficient in dispelling any Genjutsu. And it's very hard to even put me into Genjutsu because of Byakugan.

One aspect is that it gives me a passive Genjutsu resistance while the more active part is that I can see when they try to cast genjutsu on me, and just when it's about to affect me, I just disrupt my chakra.

But while my Genjutsu resistance is extremely high. That can't be said about my shurikenjutsu, with generous estimation, it's extremely average. Though that's mainly because I have put very little time to practice shurikenjutsu.

But with my physicality I can use shuriken and Kunai much more effectively than a genin with a higher skill in comparison to me. As I can launch them much faster than them, leaving opponents less time to react.

So it's not something I need to work on.

But what I need to seriously start to consider soon is.
