Inoichi was helpless after hearing his daughter's words, and others just smiled upon hearing Ino's words. After that, Ino left with Shikamaru to talk, and Inoichi and Shikaku left together.
"Ino is just a child, she doesn't know, but it's obvious that the Hyuga Clan will never let him live," said Inoichi while rubbing his head.
"Leave what's going to happen in the future for the future. Don't worry too much," said Shikaku.
"And besides, you're in the intelligence department, you can protect him if you want to," continued Shikaku.
"It's not that easy, you know that better than me," said Inoichi.
"Stop behaving as if he's your son-in-law. Haha," said Shikaku.
"Come let's have a drink."
After that, they both went to the restaurant to have a drink.
.....
The next morning, Jiryoku was training as usual when Ino arrived. It was Sunday, so there were no classes that day.
"Hi, rude guy," greeted Ino.
Jiryoku didn't stop and continued his training.
"I know you don't want anyone to come near you, but you know life without friends is like a flower without sunlight – dull and devoid of vibrant colors. So, I've decided to become your friend and bring that vibrant color," said Ino.
Jiryoku stopped and without turning towards Ino, he said, "If you want a friend, then you'll only end up disappointed and wasting your time."
"Whatever you say, but once I make a decision, I never go back on it," replied Ino firmly.
Jiryoku didn't comment on that, and days passed like this. Ino would come regularly to talk to Jiryoku, even if Jiryoku remained silent. Ino enjoyed the company of Jiryoku, and whenever Jiryoku prepared food for himself, he would also cook for Ino to eat.
And so, days turned into months, and time went by.
.....
One year later.
Jiryoku was sitting after completing his training in the open space and muttered in his heart, "System show my character panel."

After one year, Jiryoku's training progress had finally reached 40%, and his speed of improvement had increased from 0.02% to 0.03%, which was a significant improvement for his strength growth. If he were to battle the ROOT members now, he was confident that he would win with much less effort.
Jiryoku gazed at the sky and murmured, "It's time." With determination in his eyes, he headed towards the Hokage building. He had made an appointment to meet with the Hokage the day before, and after a 30-minute wait, he was granted entry to the Hokage's office.
"Good day, Hokage-sama," greeted Jiryoku, showing the respect befitting a Hokage.
"Ah, Jiryoku, it's been many years since I saw you. You rarely attend theory classes. So, tell me, what is it that you want to discuss with me?" said Hiruzen with a smile.
"Hokage-sama, I want to graduate. I desire to travel the world and gain combat experience," expressed Jiryoku.
Hearing Jiryoku's words, the Hokage was taken aback. Graduating so early in peaceful times was uncommon.
"But it's not a time of war. By remaining in the Ninja Academy, you can grow and learn how to become a proper ninja," advised Hiruzen.
"But I have made up my mind. No one in the Ninja Academy poses a challenge for me, and the best way to grow stronger is to test myself in real battles," declared Jiryoku firmly.
Hiruzen gazed at Jiryoku, sighed, and finally said, "Alright, I will allow you to graduate. However, you will need a recommendation from a Jōnin, and there is one more condition: you must defeat a Genin whose strength is comparable to a Chunin, despite not having been promoted."
Hearing the Hokage's conditions, Jiryoku nodded and requested leave. As he left the Hokage's office, he made his way to Neji's class and informed him about his early graduation plans and the requirement for a Jōnin recommendation. Neji was shocked and clenched his fist, remembering how he had always been defeated by Jiryoku.
After informing Neji, Jiryoku continued walking and contemplated, "Neji, with his unwillingness, will surely approach Hiashi for early graduation, but his wish won't be granted. However, Elders will learn about my application for graduation and the lack of a Jōnin recommendation. 'The love of the Hyūga Clan' for me is evident, so the Hyūga Clan will undoubtedly recommend me."
And just as Jiryoku had anticipated, the next morning, a recommendation letter from the Hyūga Elder was found on Hiruzen's desk.
