New objective

At this moment Dazen was really surprised: 'So he entered this year, I must be 3 years older than him, but maybe I'm weaker and he's with his father.' Dazen looked at Sakumo he had white hair and seemed to be a kind person.

Feeling Dazen's gaze, Sakumo looked towards him and seeing a child smiled and waved towards him. Dazen nodded back and looked away as he thought: 'He's really strong, he felt me looking at him almost instantly, it's great that he doesn't find it strange being a well-known figure, he's used to people looking at him.'

Koda was also looking and said excitedly: "I didn't expect the son of one of Konoha's heroes to enter this year, he must really be a genius, but this could be an opportunity."

Hiroshi and Dazen looked at him blankly and Dazen asked, "What are you talking about?"

And Koda quickly replied: "We can prank him despite being a genius, he's still very young so it shouldn't be too strong, think about it, it's something we can brag to anyone that we pranked the hero's son." Finishing speaking he looked at Kakashi and smiled miserably.

Dazen looked at him as if he were an idiot and thought: 'This guy is going to get a beating, despite being young, Kakashi must already be very strong and I wouldn't take any chances against him.'

As Dazen thought about the beating his friend was going to get, Hiroshi replied: "You're really a child, leave it to us, we're already in the third year, leave the pranking of the newbies to the second year people."

Koda grumbled, still wanting to prank the newest genius at the academy, Dazen looked at him and had fun while thinking: 'Stop making that face, you just escaped a beating from a boy 3 years younger, come to think of it Obito He must be in his second year now, could this be the beginning of the feud with Kakashi, he tried to play some joke with the genius, but he got the worst of it and that's why he doesn't get along with Kakashi and everything must have gotten worse due to Rim .'

Thinking about this possibility, Dazen smiled and said: "Forget it, you may not participate, but you can watch, now let's go to the classroom, the class is about to start, if we are late on the first day, Professor Takashi will hang us upside down."

Having listened to Dazen, Koda took comfort in just watching and with Hiroshi followed Dazen towards the classroom. Entering the room everything was noisy as always, the 3 took seats close together at the back of the room and continued talking about the vacation, 15 minutes later Professor Takashi arrived and interrupted the conversations and started the class.

The first class of the year never had anything very important, it always consisted of the students telling what happened on their vacation, what they trained and then Professor Takashi would explain what were the important points that would be studied this year and which techniques would be to train.

Soon it was break time and Koda was in a hurry to watch the newcomers' show, Hiroshi also wanted to see it, so they called Dazen, but he refused saying that he was going to stay in the library and he didn't have much interest in that kind of thing, so the two they went alone.

Dazen sat at one of the tables in the library and started thinking, 'Now that Kakashi is at the academy I have a sense of how long I have until I have to fight in the war, I know that Kakashi graduated from the academy at the age of 5 and who became a jonin at 11 and in the battle on the bridge he was already a jonin, if I guess that he was put on the field a little earlier I must have been around 5 years old even Konoha is in a situation where it needs to send children to the battlefield that It's good by then, I'll be 13 to 14 years old, I'll be able to improve a lot in the meantime.'

With this in mind, Dazen set a bold goal: 'In 3 or 4 years I should be at least as strong as a jounin and when I reach that level I will start training to replicate the purple lightning, it won't be easy at all, but I don't see another way to become strong enough to guarantee my safety other than mastering this technique, if I can use the purple lightning, even in a basic way, I should become as strong as an elite jounin.'

The goal that Dazen set for himself during these 5 years was very difficult to achieve, but he knew that he would have to take risks and go all out if he wanted to be safe, so Dazen would train until he could no longer achieve his goal.
