19 Training
After the battle, I was hospitalized for a week in the Inuzuka Hana veterinary office. While she doesn't commonly treat cats, I have to say she was really professional.
After the attack, Hiruzen decided to retire. His first proposal was Jiraya, who promptly refused, saying he has other important things to do.
Apparently being Hokage is less important than his "research"
The other choices are Tsunade, and Danzo. Ultimately, Sarutobi was more likely to choose his student, rather than his longtime friend.
Who knows what it would have been like to have Danzo in the Hokage position. Maybe the early start of the Fourth Great Ninja War, or maybe once elected it would change for the better. Well, I'm sure one of the two is possible.
But since Tsunade was chosen, Jiraya and Naruto were charged with finding her and bringing her back to Konoha, I decided not to follow them. I have something I have to do, now that the Mad Snake wants me dead, I have to train more than before. I wouldn't want him to crawl into the shadows one day without me noticing.
I could have tried to kill him now that he's invalid, but I'm sure that snake has a few tricks up its sleeve.
So the only thing left for me to do is get stronger.
And I have a way to do it. I head towards the Hokage tower, and once I arrive I see the secretary, who makes me enter with a smile "Raijin good morning, the hokage is free, you can enter whenever you want"
I thank her, and enter the office. Once inside I can see Hiruzen with a smile that shows on his face once he sees me "Raijin, I see that you have recovered. I have not yet thanked you enough for what you have done"
"it's my duty Hokage-sama"
"You can call me Hiruzen from now on, also because I'll finally retire soon," he says with a smile. Then he continues "then you have made a huge contribution this time, a reward and a duty, ask for what you want"
I remain silent for a while, and then say "I would like some advice that can help me in training the nature of the Lightning Chakra"
He looks at me a little surprised and says "yes, I know something about the nature of the lightning, you can pass in three days at 16:00, and then I'll have time to have this chat with you".
I thank him and I go out, and I decide to go and train with weights, to increase the strength of my body. A little extra strength can always come in handy.
I put the 30-kilogram weights on each limb, and start with a run around the village. I start to run and after three kilometers I see two shadows in front of me, which become lighter as I get closer.
Then I hear a voice "so youthful ... Raijin too to do a little thing to loosen your muscles before a good workout?"
I look towards the voice, and I see Guy with his student, and I start running even faster towards him.
I see him start running towards me
"Raijin!". o(^▽^)o
"Guy!". （＾∇＾）
"Raijin!". o(^▽^)o
"GUY !!!!!!!". (,,#ﾟДﾟ)ｧ!!
"Raijin ???". ( ・◇・)?
"Thunder Shock !!" I say and angrily throw him the technique
I see him fall to the ground, a little scorched, but no serious injury. He approached me and I say "never touch my TAIL so hard again !!"
Having said that, I leave him there with this last sentence, and he pulled me away from him and his student, petrified by the scene that just happened.
.......
Two weeks have passed since the attack on Konoha. Weight training has paid off, now I train with fifty kilograms weights. After the incident with Guy, I met him a couple more times, and occasionally I joined his hellish training.
In addition to weight training, I also managed to complete a new Lightning Jutsu, thanks to Hiruzen's advice. Not for nothing do they call him the professor, as for the theory of Ninja Arts, there is no one better prepared than him.
Today, it is also the day that Jiraya and Naruto will return with Tsunade. So I decide to go to Hiruzen, and wait there, their triumphant return. And maybe I can even see what Danzo will look like, after seeing Tsunade agreed to become fifth Hokage. Hahah, I wouldn't miss it for the world
