Chapitre 38: Day off
Dazen's routine remained the same for the next month besides the hellish training, Dazen and his team still had to deal with the different missions that Kenji sent them on Kenji seemed to want to train the team for several different situations so the missions that the team carried out were the most diverse such as infiltration, combat, protection, this made Dazen's team create excellent teamwork.
At that moment the team was returning to Konoha after completing another mission and Dazen, Ayume and Hideki were talking excitedly about the mission they had completed.
Ayume spoke with a smile: "The missions where we can fight are the best, although these bandits have no chance against us."
Hideki nodded and said: "Well it's not like these bandits have any type of training there's no way they can fight ninjas, that's why I prefer infiltration missions collecting data and creating strategies to complete their objectives without being noticed is the type of mission which is most satisfying when successfully completed."
Dazen laughed and said: "Don't waste time trying to explain this kind of thing to her, she's the simple-minded type who just thinks about solving everything with physical strength."
As soon as Dazen finished speaking, he felt a kick coming towards his head and quickly dodged it as he spoke: "See just like I said."
Ayume continued to try to hit him as she spoke in an irritated manner, "Stop your stupid comments Dazen or I will end you."
Dazen just laughed: "Say that when you can hit me." Having said that, Dazen increased his speed in an instant and quickly created a large distance between Ayume and him.
Seeing this Ayume just snorted and gave up on hitting Dazen, Hideki watched the interaction between the two and just laughed, after several months together he had gotten used to the constant teasing and fighting between the two.
Kenji watched his three students and smiled as he thought: 'The three of them are growing up very quickly, in the beginning they were still nervous and made some mistakes, but now they are getting better and better, C Rank missions no longer pose a problem... I think they're ready for the chunnin exam when the time comes I'll sign them up.'
The four continued on their way and quickly arrived in Konoha before dark.
Kenji then turned and said: "You guys did great today, you can take the day off tomorrow, don't train, for a ninja it's also important to know when to rest, understand?"
The three quickly responded, "Yes, sensei."
Kenji nodded and continued, "I will present the mission completion report so you are dismissed."
As soon as he finished speaking, Kenji quickly disappeared, leaving just the three of them at the entrance to the village.
Ayume then quickly started celebrating excitedly, "This is finally a day off, I thought he would never allow us a day off."
Dazen just laughed at her reaction, while Hideki agreed with Ayume and spoke with a dark expression: "Sensei's training is getting more and more difficult, in the last few weeks he has been putting me through several different genjutsus stating that I have to understand how they work to apply them in more efficient ways and he only stops when I'm close to fainting. "
Ayume shuddered at Hideki's words and started to remember the several beatings she received during that time and her expression also started to get bad.
Dazen saw the desolation of his two companions and began to laugh as he spoke: "Come on, come on, don't look like death, after all Kenji-sensei gave us a day off and even though we really had a bad time due to the training, we also become much stronger because of it."
The two thought for a while and agreed with Dazen's words, during this period their strength had increased a lot.
Ayume sighed and spoke in a low tone: "That's true, I just wish his method was a little more humane."
Dazen laughed even louder this time.
Hideki also laughed and said, "Alright, forget about it, anyway tomorrow we will be off, do you guys have any plans, if not we can go out somewhere."
Ayume nodded and said: "That's fine with me, and you Dazen?"
Dazen thought for a moment and said: "Since I'm off tomorrow, I wanted to visit some of my friends tomorrow at the ninja academy, but tonight I think I'll be free if it works out for you."
Ayume quickly responded, "That's fine with me."
Hideki also agreed and said: "So there's a marker and I think Ayume is the one who chooses the place this time."
Ayume became even more excited and said, "I'm going to take you to my favorite restaurant, so be ready."
Dazen laughed and chatted with them some more before they split up and went to their homes.
On the way home, Dazen thought: 'My strength has increased a lot thanks to training with Kenji at this rate I should reach the strength of a jounin in another year, my chakra has also increased much more than expected in that time compared to when I graduated my chakra reserves increased by 4 times.'
Dazen looked at the sky and continued: "In the coming years my chakra should continue to increase at a similar rate, I hope to reach the necessary conditions for senjutsu if not there can be too many problems in my plans, anyway there is no point in thinking about it now For now I will continue at this training pace and when the chunin exam is over I will take the next step and start purple lightning training."
Having concluded his thoughts, Dazen increased his speed and continued towards his home.
