The Flying Raijin: A Temporary Teacher

Two Months. 

It took Kira two months to memorise the contents of every single scroll in the room and this was when he included his shadow clones. If he had done it alone, it would have taken him more than a year. 

Once he was done reading the last scroll, he climbed out from the window and closed it before he began to run around the village. Even though he was busy reading the contents of the scrolls for two entire months, he didn't skimp out on his physical training. 

Though he wasn't able to train with Guy and Duy, he still did the minimum amount required for him to get his yearly physique upgrade. One hour passed by quickly and once he was done with his training, he headed back to the hokage office, ready to announce that he had finished reading all the scrolls.

But he did not expect to see familiar faces on his way back. 

"Asuma and Kurenai... what are you guys doing here?"

Kurenai sheepishly pointed towards the direction of the academy, "Today is the last day of our summer holidays but Asuma told me that he wanted to be the first to come back to the academy and brought me along... even though I wanted to sleep."

"Oh okay, but you're late. I was the first one to get to the academy so it's pointless not. Just go back home you two." Kira said as he continued to walk towards the hokage's office. 

"Hey, I heard that the hokage is teaching you right now. Is that true?" Asuma asked as he ran towards Kira and grabbed his hand to stop him from running away. 

Kira on the other hand was relaxed as he nodded in response, "Yeah. But I'm still a student of the academy. The only difference is that I'm learning a few extra things, that's all. Anyways, the hokage asked me to meet him right now. Do you want to come with me? Oh, but I don't know if he'll scold you two for going there without his permission though."

The two of them did want to meet the hokage. After all, who wouldn't want to when most of their goal was to become the hokage. But when Kira told them that Hiruzen might get mad, they felt like a bucket of ice cold water was emptied on top of their heads.

They let Kira go and once he was out of sight, they looked at each other, "He's the first one to go to the academy this year..."

Asuma looked at Kurenai and nodded, "Yeah... let's just go back home..."

On the other end, Kira sped towards the hokage's office as he jumped over the rooftops with incredible speed and precision. Multiple jonins nearby saw him and were about to intercept him, but when they recognised his face, they went back to passively standing guard. 

Kira walked into the office a minute later and saw Hiruzen buried in paperwork. The piles of papers weren't as tall as when Naruto was hokage in the anime, but it was still quite thick.

"Teacher, I'm done reading all the scrolls. What do I do next?"

Hiruzen sighed when he heard Kira's words. While he did wish to teach the kid personally, the work he had on the table was overwhelming. 

After the large nations fought in the first and second great ninja wars, they lost a lot of talented and capable ninjas and soldiers. Due to this, a lot of smaller nations and villages banded together and had been preparing for war for the past few years. 

Sakumo's death simply served as a trigger and due to this, there had been multiple reports of attacks and skirmishes at the borders of the land of fire. This was the same for the three other large nations like the land of earth, wind and lightning.

With the possibility of war looming right around the corner, he really did not have the time to personally teach Kira anything. Even though he couldn't, he still had to do his duty as his teacher. 

"Okay, which jutsu do you want to learn?"

"The flying raijin! Isn't that technique created by the second hokage? Disappearing from one place and appearing at another place is really cool!"

Hiruzen sucked in a lot of air with is mouth before sighing, 'And he had to pick one of the few jutsus that I wasn't able to master. Even if I knew, it's not like i have the time to teach this kid.'

There were crease marks on his forehead as he frowned at Kira, not knowing what to do, but just as he was thinking about it, a yellow haired youth appeared in his mind. 

'Minato... he came back to the village after finishing an A rank mission yesterday. He's here so I guess I'll just ask him to teach Kira instead. There are other ninjas who can take up the higher rank missions anyway.'

Thinking of Minato, he relaxed and leaned back on his chair, "Okay, go back home for now. I'll assign a teacher for you who knows the flying raijin technique."

"Okay!" Kira said excitedly before he ran out of the room. Once he was outside, the excitement in his face disappeared as he slowly walked back home. 

'Someone who knows the flying raijin, there's only one.' he thought as he stretched his back. 

Ding!

A new notification appeared.
