5 Chapter 4
(After 1 week)
Taiga was sitting in a backyard garden sensing Chakra of every living thing
'Hmm...Old Master really did bless this child, he is definitely an Inborn Sage, yet he can't access to it
Taiga opened his eyes
*Blink*Blink
"What happened", asked Old Lady
"Grandma, I can feel something, like some kind of energy in nature, but no matter what I do I can't merge with it"
"That's because you can't", answered old lady
"Huh? But Why?"
'If you become a sage, master's enemies are going to come after you, since you obtained his will'
"Grandma does not know", said Old lady
"Then What should I do?", asked Young Taiga
"Continue sensing Chakra of every living thing, once you good enough at it, we will start Flying Raijin Level 3"
-------
(After 3 weeks)
*Huff*Huff*
Taiga was breathing Hard and covered in scratches and bruises after nearly destroying the entire forest
"Good you finally managed to learn Flying Raijin level 3", said the Old Grandma
"Yea", said Taiga weekly after collapsing on the ground Breathing Hard enough
The Old Grandma smiled, anyone would be shocked to think someone could learn S-rank Technique pinnacle in mere 3 weeks, but Tajuu Kage Bunshin no Jutsu really lived up to its name, and to think The boy Ashura (Naruto) taught it.
-------
Taiga jumped tree to tree and finally dropped on the training ground 6
Kiba, Hinata, and Shino were training hard
"Who are you kid", asked red-eyed Kurenai from behind Taiga
"H-Hello, you must be Hinata's Sensei, she told me a lot about you, It's a pleasure to meet you, My Name is Uzumaki Kanzaki Taiga since our team training completed early I was thinking of going home with Hinata"
Kiba Hinata And Shino stopped training and looked at another side towards Taiga and Kurenai sensei
"T-Taiga-Kun?", muttered Hinata who was definitely shocked, to say the least
"Oh... so do you accompany Hinata to her house on a regular basis?", asked Kurenai
"Yea, we hugged quite a lot as well, she is quite soft, it feels quite nice hugging her you know", grinned Taiga
"T-T-T-TAI-GA KUN", Hinata nearly yelled at taiga also her faced was red as a tomato
"Oh...so did you two did anything other than hugging till now?", Asked Kurenai smiling
But before Taiga could answer, A Red-faced Hinata came and grabbed his hand, "Sensei, my training for the day is done, can I go home?"
"Uhh...Sure", Kurenai was taken by the sudden straight forwarding of rather a shy girl Hinata
-------
Taiga was standing on one side of the training ground against him were 2 of his team-mates
"Alright...set...Start", said Genma
Ken moved as fast as possible, while Yakumo hid behind trees and bushes
Snake → Ram → Monkey → Boar → Horse → Tiger
"Katon: Goukyaku no Jutsu" (Fire style: Fire Ball Jutsu)
A fireball made its way towards Taiga who didn't even moved from his original position
The fireball was just an Inch away from taiga when he muttered
"Ame-no-Ukihashi"
Fireball disappeared into thin there was no movement from anywhere the fireball just disappeared into thin air and appeared from the side of Ken directing against him
!!!
He rolled back to dodge
The Moment Ken stood up, there was a kunai on his neck from behind, with Taiga standing behind him
!!! "How", muttered Ken while seeing the kunai right beside his back on the ground that appeared magically
"Ame-no-Ukihashi store non-living things inside it and teleport it anywhere I can see, and What I usually store Inside are My Kunai, of course, It can store jutsu as well; like I did with your fireball, though I need to teleport it fast"
"Hee- that's great supplementary jutsu for flying thunder god", with a poof!! of smoke he replaced via wooden log
At that moment Taiga got hit by sudden dizziness, its Genjutsu, but the moment he got asleep and lied on the ground he disappeared in poof!! of smoke
And Yakumo even send Taiga her chakra to send him in Genjutsu, but it eventually back-fire
With Flying Raijin Level 3: Instant Step; one does not need the seal, he can just teleport to the confirm chakra, though it just takes longer and a huge amount of chakra is needed, along with some serious chakra control. (It's like Goku instant transmission)
He, yellow flash on the side of Yakumo and kicked her on her midriff
GUKKK
"Even If I can't see you, doesn't mean I can't see you", muttered Taiga and used Flow of time to fasten the speed of Kunai and shot it at the random direction
He has been sensing chakra with his grandma and training his senses with Genma sensei for more than a month (4 weeks and some days)
The Kunai traveled fast, it traveled faster than anyone could even react -- It slashed on the cheek of Ken, and with a flash, Taiga appeared and caught the kunai in mid-air, while pointing the sharp side of another Kunai in hand towards Ken.
Flying Raijin Level 2
"Alright...Great Match everyone", announced Genma while smirking
"Sensei, he is cheating, with Ame-no-Ukihashi there is no way we can land ninjutsu on him, and Flow of time just increase the speed of Kunai speed to the freaking level, not to mention Flying thunder God is just Over-powered", said Ken pouting
"Yea and he didn't even do that trick with Kunai using Ame-no-Ukihashi as he did in the test", said the pouting Yakumo
Genma smirked at that, "Every Single Technique has a break, remember this, nothing in this world is absolute, not even space-time techniques"
-------
The third Hokage took a nice long drag of his smoke pipe in an effort to hold in his desire to chuckle when the relatively new team 7 walked into his office with pulsating scratch marks on their bodies, the exception being the team Jonin; the greatest bane of newly registered Genin, Tora the cat.
Kakashi said, first one to act after that… riveting performance, the turned to address the Hokage in a crisp manner, "Capture Tore mission complete, Hokage-sama."
"Thank you, Kakashi. I'll your subordinates accounts updated on the morning." He said
"Umm, Hokage-sama?" Sakura said, raising her hand hoping for the Hokage to notice her. 'Notice me senpai'
"Yes, Sakura-chan." He said, wondering what the girl wanted to ask.
"Umm we had this quest for a while now, But can we do something different this time?"
"Alright I think I can accommodate young thrill seekers such as yourselves," the Hokage says, playing along with his… unique ninjas, "we have painting a fence for the orphanage, carrying the elderly groceries, ooh oh and my favorite, cleaning the sewer-"
"NO!" Naruto yelled, slamming his fist in the air in frustration, "Hell no Hokage-Jiji! I want a real mission, A Real Mission Something that actually poses some challenge, like saving the princess from the evil warlord or something."
"He does have a point Hokage-sama, no matter how childish his reasons are," says Sakura, putting her two cents in, while Sasuke too nodded his consents, thinking if he ever wanted to get really strong in a short time, he would need a more challenging task.
"What do you think Kakashi, are they ready?" Sarutobi asked, seeing the Jonin go quietly with thought.
"They have already achieved their hundred D-rank mission quota…" looking over, he saw three pleading faces in a variety of degrees, "Hmmm, I think they're ready for their first C-rank Mission."
"Very well," the third replied, taking a scroll from his robe's hidden pocket, "I think I have the perfect C-rank mission for you.
-------
Ken sighed as they entered the Hokage tower and entered the mission office where Hokage and Iruka sat with a huge bundle of scrolls next to them.
"Team two returning from mission," Genma said with his signature smile, pulling out a mission scroll and handing it to Iruka who recorded the finished assignment.
"Excellent work," Sarutobi said with a smile as he looked at Taiga then at Yakumo, "how have they been Genma?"
"Eager lord Hokage," Genma smiled, "I must say I lucked out with this team."
"Yes, I'm aware," he puffed his smoker looking at Taiga, "now, what to give you next. Oh, we have a very nice mission here, grocery shopping for Mrs. Kimo, poor thing has a broken back and-"
"-I can't take this anymore!" Taiga cried out startling everyone in the room. He slammed his hands on the table and growled, "if I have to waste my days painting fences and shopping for groceries I'm gonna fucking die! Please! Please for the love of God and everything that is good, give me a mission that doesn't make me want to kill myself! Please!"
Hokage blinked in surprise. Genma as well while Iruka just chuckled. Genma cleared his throat, "Taiga, that is no way to speak to the leader of your village."
"With all due respect Genma-sensei, our team's talents are being wasted on D-ranks!"
The Hokage nodded, "that may be Taiga, but these missions are necessary," he flashed a look at Taiga, "can you tell me why?"
He sighed as he reeled in his anger and thought about it for a moment before sighing, "because it makes ninjas look like humans, not cold-blooded murders and thieves."
The man smiled, "exactly. And we also wish to make sure that the young don't die that way, this is a profession when men die young. As such, until we know you're ready, we can't let you take anything higher than a D-rank."
"Well, how can we show we're ready if you don't give us a chance?" Ken scoffed. The Hokage raised an eyebrow causing the boy to stammer out, "I-I apologize for speaking out of turn lord Hokage."
Sarutobi sighed, "it's fine Ken, don't apologize for speaking your mind."
"Y-yes!"
"But he does raise a good point," the Hokage said chewing his pipe's wooden stick, "alright then, how about this. A test, if you can perform ten mission within two days I'll consider letting you go on a C-rank mission."
Yakumo turned to Iruka, "give us five."
The man blinked, he turned to the Hokage who shrugged. "Alright, but be careful," Iruka smiled as he gave five scrolls. Shopping, gardening, catching Tora the cat, painting over graffiti and dog walking.
Yakumo turned to the team, Taiga and Ken looking just as determined as her while Genma just sighed and shook his head.
"Alright team, let's do this!" Ken cried out, causing them to cheer along with him. They practically ran out of the tower leaving a sighing Genma and a chuckling Hokage behind.
"Do you really think they can do ten mission in two days?" Iruka asked in surprise.
Sarutobi shrugged, "I see no reason or them not too. I'm sure they'll surprise us."
(The next day)
It was seven in the morning and Iruka was already in the mission assignment room going through some paperwork. Just then the doors slammed open, he looked up from and spotted Team Genma walking toward him. He blinked, "this is...unusual."
Taiga was covered in paint, Ken in scratches as he held a struggling Tora who had run away... again. Yakumo's fingers were covered in dirt and Genma looked like he didn't get any sleep.
Taiga slammed the mission scrolls in front of Iruka, "done! One C-rank. Please!"
Iruka, "didn't you leave with five mission yesterday?"
"They came back last night and demanded five more," said a very tired Genma.
"You really don't like waking up early do you sensei?" Yakumo smiled.
"It was three in the morning!"
"Grass doesn't cut itself," Ken said as he put Tora inside a cage and slammed the door shut, "and stay in there this time!"
Taiga stepped back and crossed his arms, "we finished the missions as you asked. C. Rank. Please."
Iruka sighed, "give me a moment, I'll get the Hokage."
Five minutes later:
The old man looked through the mission scrolls and blinked. He looked at team Genma and smiled, "well...I'm surprised. I didn't think you would form such a close bond so soon."
"We tend to agree when it comes to things we hate," Yakumo smiled.
"And apparently that includes waking their teacher up at three in the morning," Genma grumbled. Yesh, he really wasn't a morning person huh?
"Well, either way, a promise is a promise," the man smiled as he pulled out a blue scroll, "a C rank, as promised."
"Yes!" They all cheered as one. Well all except Genma who was sighing, at being awaken 3 in the morning

(Somewhere Unkown in a blank Space)
"So the Old sage has put you in charge of protecting that child?", asked a beautiful Blond woman
"This has nothing to do with you Natasha", said the Old lady Aide
"Hmm...I wonder why is that Old sage hiding the child from all of us", Blond women mused
"Like I said it's None... of... your... Business", the Old Lady Released a freaking huge Killing Intent
"Oh...You think You can defeat me? don't forget your master is already injured he cannot save you", said the blond
"The same goes for you", replied the Old Lady
"What's so special about that child that both your master and you are willing to put your life on the line?", asked the blond
