Takashi immediately created a new clone and assigned it the duty of entering the cabin and taking every bit of the food.
Takashi stood beside the bodies, surveying his surroundings. "Now!!" several people rushed at Takashi, as a voice cried from the bushes.
Takashi extended his index finger and`mecilessly sliced everyone that came at him. Despite the fact that they were all just regular folks who were killed by the same thread, Takashi nonetheless unleashed excessive amounts of chakra, he couldn't control his chakra to that extent yet. He couldn't afford to battle them for too long since his chakra had a limit. Takashi slaughtered them one by one while piling the corpses. there were also some others who were approaching from behind, but they still didn't stand a chance. In essence, he was opposed by everyone.
Takashi cautiously backed away after his clone took all the food. he was almost out of chakra, so he needed to hurry.
…
Fortunately, Takashi was able to escape, but he did use some food as enticement.
He took cover under a bush and slept off. He was so exhausted that he lacked the energy to even eat.
…
Takashi cautiously opened his eyes and noticed orange surroundings. Takashi leaped in surprise immediately became alert.
"Congratulations, you've survived the competition. You were completely drained when the sand Shinobi found you. You were rushed to the hospital right away. Fortunately, it appears you're in good health, despite the fact that you were a little worn out.'' a woman remarked as she stepped into the room. She wore a white lab coat, akin to a docter.
"How long have I been asleep" Takashi asked as he looked outside the window next to him. He saw the circular shaped building and the big wall that surrounded the village.
"Roughly a day. You should get ready since you will be meeting the Kazekage in about an hour,'' the woman said while handing Takashi a black shirt, white-gray pair of pants, a pair of sandals, and finally a blue bandana.
"What's this?" Takashi asked the woman as she handed him the blue bandana.
"It's something you wear at your forehed, and i think it suits you, especially with the long hair.'' The woman replied
…
Takashi chose to wear the bandana after putting on the clothing.

...
He then proceeded to the Kazekage's office.
When he arrived, he introduced himself to the guards stationed outside the Kazekage's building, and they permitted him to enter. Takashi opened the door and found the Kazekage sitting at his desk, as well as two other persons he recognized.
"…"
There was a brief moment of silence when Takashi opened the door
"Ah… Takashi right?" The Kazekage asked
"How're you alive" Takashi inquired suspiciously as he gazed at the person he had battled against and killed, but this appeared to be wrong as that said man was here alive and well.
"Cough, how about yo-" The Kazekage was about to console Takashi, but Akira cut him off.
''Ya wanna go at it again ya bastard, this time I'll be the one to do the killing" Akira said
Akira was about to fight Takashi until the Kazekage shouted, stopping him immediately.
"ENOUGH!... Cough, Akira, you should calm down.'' Following the Kazekage's advice, Akira refrained from inciting Takashi. The Kazekage proceeded to explain how the girl next to Akira saved him, Takashi recognized that girl as she was the one he had battled against, the Kazekage continued to explain how she had saved him.
Apparently, she did not heal him; rather.... She restored his lifespan. By sacrifising her own for a few years. Takashi was a little taken surprised but he maintained an indifferent look.
...
"So.. why am I here?" Takashi inquired.
''As you may not be aware, there are three ranks of shinobi in this village.'' The Kazekage continued to explain the Genin, Chunin, and Jounin levels as well as what the academy is/does.
Takashi asked, "I see... but how does that relate to the three of us?"
"Since you three are far too skilled to study at the academy, I have made you Genins. Furthermore... You three are assigned as a team.
"Huh! With this idiot!" Akira uttered
"With him, yes. Tomorrow at 6 a.m., you'll all be meeting your new instructor, so I expect you all present, on time.''
''Tch,'' Akira muttered.
''The both of you may leave now'' Akira and the girl were addressed by the Nidaime Kazekage.
"I'm not te-" The girl interrupted Akira as she dragged him away.
''Now, Takashi, I want to propose you something, albeit I'm not sure if you'll like it.'', the Kazekage spoke while handing Takashi a document. ''I want you to be my son''
"Son?… Why would you want me to be your son" Takashi asked
"Well, for starters, I need a successor, and other than you, no one else is currently qualified for that role." The Kazekage elaborated.
"I see… But why me, why not Akira?" Takashi inquired.
"He is capable, but not capable enough for the role of Kazekage. Ah and, Akira already has a family." The Kazekage paused for a moment before continuing, "Quite a special one too, he was put in Gray Terminal on his family's request, probably to strengthen him. Then there's the other girl who was adopted by the Hoki clan, which, if you don't know, is a big family.''
"Hmm… Makes sense, then one last question. seeing as you're so kind, how come you killed so many people" Takashi asked
"I wouldn't describe myself as kind, but I would do anything to protect this village, even if it means killing innocent people. and you are wrong in one regard: the only good people were you and a few other kids, the rest were all criminals.'' The Kazekage said
