Analysis and decision

So 2 weeks have passed since the start of Dazen's new training and as usual he arrived early in the room and sat down waiting for the others to arrive and he didn't have to wait long when Koda and Hiroshi arrived in the room together and went to him and they greeted him.

Koda said with a smile: "You really like it here, don't you, you're always the first to arrive and the last to leave, I'm starting to think you actually sleep in this room."

Hiroshi looked at Dazen with a smile and joked, "He should arrive at the academy before the doorman."

Dazen looked at the two friends who were having fun at his expense and said: "Shut up you two, I'm just not as lazy as you two, that's why I arrive early and my house is close to the academy."

Koda smiled and replied: "Okay, okay, there's no need to be nervous, it was just a joke anyway, Hiroshi has something he wants to talk to us about, he kept being secretive and saying he would only talk when the 3 of us were together, I'm really curious to know what he has to say so important if it's a prank I'm really going to finish him off this time."

Dazen looked surprised at Hiroshi who then replied irritably: "It's not a joke, it's something really serious, this time you'll be surprised when you hear what I have to say."

Then Koda replied: "Okay, then speak up Dazen is already here too and seems to be curious."

Dazen looked at Hiroshi who started to speak: "You know my father is a special jounin due to his abilities as a sensor and in the last few days he has received several secret missions that he wouldn't even discuss with my mother, so I got curious and asked a friend of mine who belongs to one of these big clans and he said that several strong ninjas are being sent on various missions in small countries with some objective and that it was something very serious because there have been several meetings in his clan in the last few days..."

Koda interrupted him and asked curiously, "Which clan does your friend belong to?"

Hiroshi replied: "To the Inuzuka clan, and there's more, he said he heard his mother talking to a friend worried about the possibility of a new conflict in these countries and starting a new war."

Having heard this, the two boys were completely shocked and Koda quickly replied: "That's impossible, how can a new war start in such a short time?"

Dazen asked in shock, "Is this friend of yours sure he heard his mother say that? He may have misunderstood."

Hiroshi replied: "He told me several times that he heard his mother talk about the possibility of war, he has no doubt about it."

Koda quickly replied, "Hey that's impossible, his mother must just be scared due to the last war, this whole movement must be due to something else and your friend said it's movements in small countries, it's nothing to worry about until involve the 5 largest nations."

Thinking about what Koda said Hiroshi calmed down and agreed with what his friend said, after all in the minds of these children Konoha had nothing to worry about with these smaller countries they were much stronger, but unlike his friends Dazen couldn't calm down, for he knew that the third war would begin precisely because of those smaller nations that his friends despised.

Dazen was thinking about several possibilities when his thoughts were interrupted by his teacher who was about to start the class, his friends went to sit in their seats to watch the class, but Dazen, unlike them, couldn't think about anything other than the previous conversation.

While his teacher was teaching, Dazen was thinking: 'Damn, I didn't imagine that the war could start so soon, I thought I would have at least 5 years to be able to train and have a minimal chance of survival, if the war starts now or next year my chances of survival are zero, damn it and now my plans are ruined I can't think of anything else I have nothing to calm down.'

Dazen tried to calm himself down as he analyzed the situation: 'From what I remember from the anime, Kakashi and Obito had a relatively normal life until that bridge mission which was Kakashi's first as jounin leader which means the kids weren't sent to the war right away, this makes sense despite the losses from the last war Konoha is still not in such a bad situation to be necessary to send children to the battlefield the situation must have gotten worse over time which forced them to such a decision, so I should be safe for a while.'

Dazen frowned and relaxed as he came to this conclusion: 'Now that I'm in this situation, I'm going to have to move forward some of my plans, I was going to wait until I was 10 to graduate, but that won't be possible now, I can't graduate this year because I won't have a reasonable excuse for how I suddenly learned the 3 basic jutsus or why I hid my mastery over them so just I'll be able to graduate next year.'

So Dazen finished his analysis and waited for the end of the class he had to train even more, now he no longer cared about the pain of training, the only thought in his head was getting stronger and surviving.
