Right now an Anbu has contacted me and the Hokage wants to meet with me as soon as possible.

"h.e.l.lo, Hokage Ji-Sama!" I said and I changed Jiji to sama because I saw that there were 3 people inside that I don't know.

"h.e.l.lo, Daisuke chan. This is Yamanaka Inoue, Jonin teacher of Team 1. This is her genin students Hyuga Nemu, Miyagi s.h.i.+roe and Aburame s.h.i.+nji." Hiruzen said.

"h.e.l.lo Inoue Sensei, Nemu, s.h.i.+roe and s.h.i.+nji. My name is Inuzuka Daisuke." I said.

"h.e.l.lo, Daisuke. It's nice to meet you." Inoue said while Nemu, s.h.i.+roe and s.h.i.+nji nodded at me.

"So Hokage sama, why did you call me here." I asked.

"Well, you've been a solo Genin for quite a while now and you've been trained by Kakas.h.i.+ all this time. I currently have a mission here but it is pretty much above Team 1's level so I've decided to include you to help them with their mission. This is a high profile escort mission and the client has also received multiple death threats. You and Team 1 here will escort the Secretary of the Land of Waterfall's Daimyo with important doc.u.ments back home. We currently don't have the proper s.h.i.+n.o.bi that can handles this kind of mission since all of them are out on their missions so we decided to give this mission to you and Team 1." Hiruzen said.

"Ain't he just a genin just like us Hokage sama. What can he do that we can't?" s.h.i.+roe said.

I then blurred from my spot without anyone noticing and I arrived beside him with my claws on his neck.

"Well, I'm stronger than you that's one." I said while all of the s.h.i.+n.o.bi inside the room including the Hokage widened their eyes.

'He's gotten faster. I was only able to see him when he was almost near s.h.i.+roe.' The Hokage thought.

'He's very fast. No, even that description is an understatement.' Inoue thought.

"Enough Daisuke, all of you will meet up tomorrow with the client around 8 in the morning so pack up and get ready for tomorrow. Daisuke, stay for a while, I need to talk to you. Also, Inoue, Daisuke will go to your usual training ground later. You can test his skills so you can integrate him with your formations and teamwork practice." Hiruzen said.

Team 1 then said their goodbyes to the Hokage.

"Daisuke, I want to ask if you want to take the Chunin exam this coming month. It's been almost 2 years already and I can ask the council to allow you to take the exams alone just like Itachi." He said.

"What happened to having a low profile Jiji? What about Danzo?" I said.

"Well, Kakas.h.i.+ and Guy told me about your progress and they've vouched for your skills. Kakas.h.i.+ even told me that you're already beyond a normal Jonin. He also said that he had almost taught you everything in his a.r.s.enal. About Danzo, he's already void of all of his previous powers Daisuke because I already took it from him. Also, if you pa.s.s this exam then I can finally pull you out of the Anbu." He said.

"Why would you want me to leave the Anbu Jiji? Am I not Anbu material? I've always wanted to be an Anbu Captain." I said.

"Well, you're already at the level of an Anbu Captain, Daisuke. But being in the Anbu is not healthy for someone like you Daisuke. Killing in every mission, a.s.sa.s.sination, and Espionage is very dark and cruel for someone at your age. I've a.s.signed you to Anbu to hide you from the eyes of Danzo and his colleagues and the other Ninja village for your protection since you were so young. So I wanted to bring you out from the dark and show you into the light."

"If that is what you want me to do Jiji, then I'll accept your proposal." I said.

"Okay, the Chunin Exam will be held on the Sunagakure this time. You will go there together with Kakas.h.i.+ and the other Genins to attend the exams. I have a lot of expectations for you Daisuke." He said while I nodded at him and made my goodbye.

I then went to the Training Ground where Team 1 was meeting.

"So you're the Copy Ninja Kakas.h.i.+'s student right Daisuke?" Inoue asked.

"Yes, Inoue Sensei. Kakas.h.i.+ Sensei has been training me for more than a year now." I said.

"Okay, so for me to integrate you to our team's formations and tactics, I need to see your strength Daisuke san. So can you spar with Nemu so I can see your strength." Inoue said and I just nodded.

Nemu then went inside the battle arena and face me at the opposite end. She then readied her Hyuga stance and I just stood there in place.

"Okay, the only rule is to don't heavily injure each other. Begin!" Inoue said.

Nemu then rushed in my direction with great speed. When she got near me, I then dodge all of her strikes because I can see them clearly before they even got close to me.

"Eight Trigrams Sixteen Palms."

Nemu then opened her Byakugan and attacked me with her clan Jutsu.

Its speed was still slow for me so I just dodge all sixteen strikes.

"Eight Trigrams Thirty Two Palms."

She then doubled the number of strikes of her attack and the speed also improved a bit.

But unfortunately, the attacks were still slow for my standard so I just Shuns.h.i.+ned at her weak spot and charged a low-level Jutsu on my palm.

"Impact Palm."

The attack then hit Nemu on her lower back and she sailed across the arena. She rolled for a good 20 meters before she stopped. Inoue then went near her and checked if Nemu sustained any injury.

The attack caused Nemu to have a palm-size bruise on her back.

"Winner: Daisuke." Inoue said.

I then bowed at Nemu and she also did the same.

"Okay, that would be enough for now Daisuke." She said.

"No Inoue Sensei. I also want to spar with him." s.h.i.+roe said.

"Would that be okay with you Daisuke?" Inoue said.

"It's okay Sensei." I said.

s.h.i.+roe then entered the arena.

"The same rules will apply for this match. Are you both ready? Begin." She said.

s.h.i.+roe then also rushed me like Nemu. But this time his charge and attack are much more slower than Nemu.

I didn't want to prolong the battle since I don't want to waste more time with sparring so I just vanished from my spot and appeared behind s.h.i.+roe in a crouched position with both of my fingers in a Tiger Seal.

"Stop Daisuke! s.h.i.+roe, dodge! That's a Katon Jutsu." Inoue yelled.

s.h.i.+roe then panicked from my sudden appearance behind him but before he can react I said.

"Konohagakure Hidden-Secret Taijutsu Technique: One Thousand Years of Death!"

I thrust my fingers hard and fast into s.h.i.+roe's b.u.t.tocks and he comically leaps into the air and traveled a fair distance.

Nemu, Inoue and even s.h.i.+nji anime fell from what I did to s.h.i.+roe.

"YOU b.a.s.t.a.r.d!!!!! WHAT WAS THAT FOR!!!!!" s.h.i.+roe yelled at me while he was limping and rubbing his b.u.t.t.

"What? Kakas.h.i.+ Sensei taught me that secret technique. I just decided to use it to you since you were rus.h.i.+ng at me while your b.u.t.t was sticking backward. You should be thankful I didn't use a Kunai or an Exploding Kunai as a weapon when I performed my technique." I said.

"YOU!" s.h.i.+roe yelled but before he can rush at me Inoue then appeared between us.

"Okay, that was enough. Daisuke is correct s.h.i.+roe. Although he used a 'unique' technique, if he decided to do a lethal Jutsu or technique instead, you would be dead by now." She said while s.h.i.+roe just reluctantly walked out.

After the sparring matches, Inoue then taught me about their usual formation and I also did some teamwork exercise with them.

One useful perks of being an Anbu is you learn to work with different colleagues in different missions. That is why I learned their formation and teamwork exercise after a few repet.i.tions.

After training with Team 1, Inoue then told us to pack for a 1 week supply for our mission and to meet up at the Village Gate tomorrow at 7 am.

I then went home after that and packed my things differently.

As an Anbu, I always pack light because Anbu missions are usually fast-paced. That is why I learned to just pack what you truly need.

Even if I also packed more than enough this time, it won't hinder me that much since I can just store them in my storage scroll.

After packing for tomorrow, I then ate my dinner with my family and told them that I'll be out for a mission for a few days.

When dinner ended, I then went to my room to have a good rest for tomorrow's mission.
