Train me, Old man

The next day. In Konoha, at Hokage's office.

"Train me for the Chunni exams. Old man." Tendou said as he looked at Hiruzen straight in the eye.

"Aren't you the boy from Naruto's team? What are you doing in my office? Get out." Hizruzen said as he looked at Tendou.

Currently, it was very early so Hiruzen was the only one who was present in the Hokage's office.

"Not until you teach me all the ninjutsu abilities that you know," Tendou said.

Well, Tendou didn't want to say that but instead, he wanted to say "I heard you are called the professor. I want to see how strong you are. Let's have a spar."

But since he knew that there was a high chance that the third Hokage knew something that could take him down.

So he decided to be respectful for a while until he was fully knowledgeable of how ninjutsu works.

Hiruzen looked at the boy like he was a fool.

Then suddenly three figures popped into his mind.

And he then looked at Tendou.

Tendou noticed that the third Hokage seemed to be having second thoughts.

"I am busy right now. So I can not train you. No matter how many times you ask." Hirizen said to Tendou.

But just like Tendou's thoughts Hiruzen was really having second thoughts.

I wonder if I can train him so that he will become a future asset for the village, who knows maybe he might even become the next Hokage. I also didn't want him to become another product of my failures just like him.

He once trained three ninjas before he became the Hokage. And all three of them became very powerful and important people in their respective fields.

However, he didn't consider teaching them as an achievement that he could be proud of.

Because the ninja that he considered to be the most talented among them became an enemy of Konoha.

He even thought if he had been more harsh, mature and experienced maybe that person could have walked another path.

But those were regrets that he tried to forget. Then he saw a boy looking at him with eagerness in his eyes.

Of course, this was the effect of the Tengoku no me where the user became more trustworthy to others but Hiruzen didn't know this and saw Tendou as a young seedling that was eager to learn from him.

I could give him a chance. Hiruzen thought.

"I have three conditions," Hiruzen said as he looked at Tendou.

Tendou smiled at Hiruzen.

This guy is really a pushover just like the rumours said. I cannot believe he accepted my request. Tendou thought.

"One, I will only train you for seven days, and if you manage to impress me during those seven days I will take you as my official discipline," Hiruzen said.

"Seems reasonable," Tendou said.

"Two. I will only train you using my clone, even if you become my official discipline." Hiruzen said.

Tendou nodded.

"Three. I will be always using a transformation jutsu during our training and you cannot tell anyone that I am training you." Hiruzen said.

All three conditions are reasonable so Tendou agreed.

"Then it's settled. Now get lost. I will wait for you at the village gates the next morning." Hiruzen said.

Tendou gave a bow to show respect and then walked away with a smile on his face.

--------------------------

The next day near the Konoha's gates.

Hiruzen was using the transformation so that he looked like a younger version of himself.

"Now since you are here let's get going," Hiruzen said as he saw Tendou slowly walking towards him.

"Hey, old man. Are the rumours about you being able to use every elemental nature true?" Tendou asked.

"Don't get your hopes up, kid. Even my most talented student failed to learn everything that I have to offer." Hiruzen said as the two went outside the Konoha.

That day Tendou disappeared from the village for a total of seven days until he reappeared before the Chunni exams began.

Of course, people who were paying attention to even the smallest things that happened in the village, like Danzo know about Tendou leaving the village for training.

However, because they didn't know that Hiruzen was training Tendou they didn't use any resources to try to keep an eye on him.

Even the most elite military forces can sometimes slip up.

Whether it is an accident or some supernatural influence? No one knows.

----------------------------

Seven days later. A young man with Golden eyes and white hair entered the gates of Konoha again.

It was Tendou.

"I cannot believe the clone of the old man disappeared on the sixth day before the training is supposed to end," Tendou said.

He was wearing a long-sleeve white shirt and black pants.

He was also wearing a black undershirt under his clothes and a pair of gloves that had metal plates.

He was not wearing his forehead protector on his eyes anymore and now he was wearing it on his forehead just like any other regular ninjas.

There are also bandages wrapped around his legs like a sock. He wears black sandals along with the bandages.

For weapons, he was carrying a wakizashi on the back of his belt in a horizontal position.

A bag that contains medicine and other handy tools is also attached to the right side of the belt.

He also possessed a pouch that contained kunais, shurikens and explosive tags on the pouch which was adjusted to the left side of his tight.

"I wonder how much stronger those two have gotten," Tendou said as he stepped foot into the village.

He cannot wait to see his teammates whom he has not seen for a while.
