So thank you all for your patience, I have stated that I appreciate your supportive comments, but I also want you to critique me in a non-sarcastic manner because your statements would have no effect on this fic, this fic is a stepping stone for me to improve as an author.
I have so many fanfic ideas that I want to bring to life as a fan of fanfics and novels, but my skill issue prevents me from even attempting, so if you see any improvements or want me to improve an aspect tell me, I can already sense a need for more tension in the fic, engaging dialogues, world building, timeline management like how tf Tsunade met The First Hokage when he died after a few years of creating Konoha, how did Kushina spent years without any family when Uzushiogakure was destroyed a few weeks or months before the Third war or something because it's not explicitly stated when and I have already set the time of Third war after Uzu was attacked so I have to Work from there and you have to bear this fic as an AU from now on. I would prefer this as an AU since I get more freedom and you get to enjoy more instead of complain more.
With that said why I took so long? I have been reading a few books on improving my style, as well as reading a few fics. Though they might not be masterpieces they do a lot of things better than I do, such as creating tension, dialogues, world-building, and timeline management, things that I am having trouble with.
The last reason is, well I sold my mobile and that is the main reason for the wait, I Don't write on my laptop and mobile is more convenient.
Also, I won't be posting notes like these without a chapter since I am also uploading this fic on fanfic.*** with the same name and fanfic.*** does not allow notes without any chapters.
So now you are free to enjoy the chap.
Thank you for reading.

Bang, Haruto, and Mio stared at the monster standing in front of them silently.
It resembled a giant Oni, with red skin, height reaching 8 ft, facial features resembling a wrathful demon, and its body emitting an evil aura.
"Who are you?" Bang calmly asked the creature.
"RaAhaAaaa!!!" The demon ignored him and attacked, displaying no reason.
Its massive fist was launched at Bang who calmly stood in the front, anticipating its move, he jumped towards its punch and countered by deflecting it towards its face, knocking it back.
Not leaving this opportunity, Mio jumped and finished it off by punching its head with great force, its head exploded into a paste of red.
"Master... It was just a monster, it couldn't be reasoned with."
"Hmm" Bang nodded
"We should move quickly... We don't know the circumstances the Land of Demons is currently facing in detail."
"Yes, Master."
"Yes, Master."
They moved through the terrain jumping on the branches of the tree, 'What could the reason be this unusual appearance of monsters... Chakra corruption? Perhaps...' The monsters could not have appeared out of thin air, Bang had some theories, but nothing could be confirmed before reaching the Priestess.
As they moved through the terrain, multiple monsters tried to attack them. Some monsters resembled avians, Oni, winged dogs, and more.
As they were right around the area where the border of the Land of Demon would start, a 12-foot-tall Oni jumped in front of them and blocked their Path.
"This is as far as you go!!" Its mere voice could terrify most people, but it did not affect Bang and his disciples.
"Who are you?... And What is your purpose in blocking our way?" Bang became serious when the monster spoke, it was unlike the monsters he had killed.
"Who I am is not necessary, but my job is to stop anyone interfering in our war with the Priestess, I have already Slaughtered many mercenary Ninjas and now it's your turn." The monster displayed its arrogance by telling the feat it achieved.
"Very well." Bang didn't need to hear anymore, it had already revealed enough of the rest they could gather later.
The Oni had a giant club in its hand, that swung at the position of the three and caused a quake.
Bang and his disciples jumped away from the attack, they measured its strength by observing the destruction it caused.
(Bang) "Water Style: Water Dragon Jutsu." Bang took a deep breath before spitting out a massive amount of water from his mouth, requiring no seal, the water created a mini lake around them.
A massive serpentine Dragon took its shape and attacked the Oni, with a ferocious velocity.
The Oni swung its club multiple times but it was a lost cause, the Dragon continuously reshaped itself and attacked with no hesitation it was a battle of attrition.
Haruto and Mio stood behind the Oni in the distance.
"Water Style: Water Shark Bomb Jutsu!"x2
The 2 Water Sharks made haste and one attacked its neck while the other attacked its arm, restraining the Oni, on Bang's command the Water Dragon struck its stomach like a drill piercing through the monster.
Instantly killing the monster, Bang solemnly looked at it before he nodded at his disciples and they finally crossed the border, they saw smoke rising in the distance.
-Story ended-
(BANG-P.O.V)
"Alright kids, this is where the story ends for today it's already 4 pm, so it's time for you to go and rest." Bang heard every student groan in exasperation, right when the story was about to get good.
"Another important thing before you leave, Bring your parents tomorrow, I have something important to discuss." Bang Mysteriously stated not giving any more details, since he had a surprise for them, which they might not necessarily like.
"Yes, Sensei!!" The kids seemed to be excited, maybe they would be praised in front of their parents.
The kids slowly left the Dojo after Packing their Dojo Gi.
30 Minutes later...
Bang and his students were eating dinner and talking about tomorrow.
"Sensei can you continue the story you were telling?"(Shiori)
"Maybe some other time, anyway how has your progress been, are any of you having any trouble with what I am teaching or what you're taught at school?" Bang switched the topic.
"Well we have not been having any trouble, but we have the intention to graduate early, so I was wondering If there was a way you could help us?" Shiori didn't insist on the previous topic and asked for his help.
"We can cut down your exercises until you finish studying for early graduation, but then you would have to work extra hard on other aspects, without a doubt you would have trouble."(Bang)
"How about I teach you all a new technique, but it is extremely difficult and dangerous if not used with caution." Bang had created a technique akin to Shadow clone Jutsu, unlike Multi-Shadow clone Jutsu which could kill even Jonins it was safer.
"Really!! Don't worry Sensei we will learn it without any difficulty."(Yuta)
"This technique utilizes Martial Aura if you can learn it you can improve your speed at learning Water Stream Rock Smashing Fist, think of it as a test if you can learn it I will allow you to apply for early Graduation, if not I want to you to continue at the at which your going, haste can be a detriment sometimes."
With that discussion settled they finished dinner and Bang went to meditate, while Shiori and others decided to play a little game of pretend.
~X~
"What's on the agenda?"
"What's aganda Shiori? Is it food?"
"Naruto stop asking these Questions, do want to play or not?" Shiori was annoyed by Naruto constantly asking Questions.
"Agenda means topic?... Or something... right?" Yuta answered the question but ended up giving another question.
"Sigh... why am I even here?"
"Please! Just continue I can't wait!" (Kaito)
"Alright alright... Today we got reports that some villages are being terrorized by a Zebra."(Yuta)
Shiori had trouble holding her laugh, "Send some Chunins on this mission... alright I can't take this Yuta who told you to send a Jonin to scout some small villages and a zebra?! Is that the best you can come up with?!"
"What do you mean? Zebras are scary!"
"To you they are, but ninjas don't fight zebras they fight ninjas or criminals Sigh..." Shiori released an exasperated sigh.
"Alright, whatever the chunin discovered a band of criminals and now we have to send a few... who should we send?..."
"Well the game just started so you all have to be Genins"
As this game of DnD Ninja Edition was taking place in the Dojo, an important meeting was taking place in the Hokage Buildings Meeting room.
"So what's on the agenda?..."(Homura)
"I wanted to discuss something I have been holding off..."(Hiruzen)
There was tension in his voice and the elders could sense the seriousness of the situation.
"We have someone that can cause a lot of trouble in the village... although they are under surveillance and they haven't made any moves against the village."
"Who might they be?" Koharu asked exaggeratedly, she was a little annoyed by how Hiruzen was speaking.
"They just happen to be Silver-Fang of the Land of Whirlpool," Danzo revealed the information, he had a serious face.
"What!? When did he come!?" Homura was shocked by the information.
"Look I didn't know at first and the information while not hidden was very... Hard to believe, not to mention his appearance was a mystery, until now at least."
"Well what are his activities? If you believe he has not made any harmful moves and is under surveillance."(Koharu)
"He has been training a few academy students under him for quite a few months but one of them is Naruto..." His statement garnered surprise from Koharu and Homura, while Danzo was not surprised.
"You would rather let an unknown Shinobi train the Jinchuriki than me!?!?!?" Danzo not leaving any chances to get an advantage.
"We have already had this irrelevant discussion multiple times and I don't intend to give it any further thought than I already have, today's topic is a lot more important."(Hiruzen)
"Danzo is correct to some degree Hiruzen, how can you let the Jinchuriki be under the guidance of someone so Dangerous?" Homura asked with concern.
"The man seems resolute in guiding him, he is strong, provoking him would not be a wise decision, I have kept an eye on him for the few months he has been in the Leaf, he has not been teaching him anything that goes against the Leaf's teachings, his other students are also showing great potential and improvements through his teachings." Hiruzen tried to decrease the tension, he had been making bad decisions from the time when took in the three Sannin as his students.
"Hiruzen this still doesn't explain you having so much trust in an unknown."(Koharu)
"Look... He seems to have strong ties with the Land of Whirlpool and I see this as an opportunity to Bridge the gap between us, the gap that was created after World War 3."
Homura and Koharu seemed to be in deep thought after what he said.
"Well if he is under surveillance then we would be notified about any big movements he makes, While I don't agree with what is happening there are positives to what you said... The Uzumaki clan is a powerhouse in the ninja world and it would do more harm to us if we further aggravate them, it could force the Fire Daimyo to take actions that may or may not be beneficial to the Leaf." Homura contemplated the situation and the consequences of the decisions they made.
Danzo had been silent for the duration of this discussion, he was not in agreement with how it was progressing but he was more annoyed with the existence of Uzushiogakure and Bang, he felt powerless since any decisions against them could cause the involvement of the Fire Daimyo which could result in investigations against him, but he would have his opportunity.
"If this is what it has come to then so be it, we can only let things progress as they are now, any weakness we show can be harmful to the future of the village, and involving the Daimyo could lead to a more unknown territory for us."(Koharu)
~X~
"Well well... The rookie Ninjas completed their first mission with their Jonin instructor. On a journey to be the strongest, what difficulties they must face remain hidden by the veil called fate." The kids had finished playing after 3 hours, entertained by the simplest acts, the time had flown by unknowingly.
"'Congratulations on your first mission as talented Ninjas, who seek to become the strongest!', the Hokage congratulates you. With that, this session ends and we will do another one after a week or so."
"Why so long Shiori?!"
"Naruto, I have to plan lots and lots of stuff, so please be patient, we should sleep now, I am already tired of your shenanigans." They cleaned up after playing and went to sleep, letting their minds wander to the dreamland.
They woke up groggy after their sleep making an effort to get up for their morning run.
16th of December
Once they finished their morning run, they ate their breakfast and went to the academy early as always, taking their pets with them since they found less time during training.
The day went by as Bang taught the rest of his students, they now had to wake up early for the morning runs.
Naruto and Kaito trained in Shuriken-jutsu for the day after they completed their routine exercises, Bang was strict with everyone because once they became Ninjas they wouldn't have time to train with him it was unfortunate but everything lasted for some time, before coming to an end.
They trained leaf-sticking before everyone started doing calligraphy,
practicing Japanese letters.
It was Bang's first time teaching calligraphy to children their age, so he made the mistake of starting by writing sentences which would be more difficult.
So he corrected that by now going letter by letter for Japanese.
After a few hours of tireless practice, Shiori and the others returned and everyone started doing their daily routine of exercise.
The children were told to wake up early from tomorrow onwards and come for early training, the days were peaceful... but it felt too peaceful...
The children left and it was time for Bang to teach them a new technique for early graduation.
"Now the first Ninjutsu you need to learn is water clone-jutsu, it's an easy and a more useful version of the clone-jutsu, after that comes another technique that you will learn about later."
"Sensei, we have already mastered the clone technique, so is this somehow connected to a super-useful jutsu that will help us pass early?" Shiori as always, is the first to ask questions.
"Yes." With a simple affirmation, they started learning the hand signs for Water clone jutsu...
They must first learn to properly perform the hand signs for the jutsu, they made the movements properly and slowly first before increasing their speed, if they made any mistakes they took a detour and started slow again before increasing their speed.
Naruto and Kaito joined the training, Bang didn't stop them, he doubted that they would be able to copy just by watching but the hand-signs would be useful for the future.
Naruto and Kaito had a bit of trouble with the hand signs, being in the academy had given Shiori and the rest an upper hand sign department, Bang displayed patience and guided helped whenever they asked but Naruto being the most stubborn one of the group, he resisted the urge and showed great resilience, saying 'I don't need help, I can do it on my own!'.
1 Week later
23rd of December
It's been a week and today was the day Shiori, Yuta, and Doku had Learned and mastered the Hand signs as well as performed the jutsu with success.
They were excited to know the next lesson which would help them Graduate early.
"Sensei, so what was the technique you wanted to teach us."
"I'll do a demonstration first, then I will teach you all how to put it into action."
Bang weaved the hand signs for the Water clone-Jutsu, water materialized out of thin air and formed a solid water clone exhibiting appearance, mannerisms, and presence compared to the original.
"The clone is created out of your Chakra, unfortunately, you can't take your Chakra back after you have cast the Justu, but through the Mastery of Martial Aura I created a technique that not only returns your Chakra back but also the experience of the clone through memory, it was more like a side effect since I didn't create the technique for that purpose."
"But it is also one of the Easier techniques of the Martial Aura, you only have to establish physical contact with the body of water to initiate a connection with elements Aura and your Martial Aura, pull back your Chakra and that's it. While in theory, it's easy the practical usage is difficult, the reason I am teaching you this is that it will future growth, the real test of your talent and hard work starts here."
Bang put his hand on the shoulder of his clone before it turned into its transparent liquid form before it was absorbed into Bang's hand.
"Woah!!!..."
"Woah!!!..."
"Woah!!!..."
"Now how about you get the feel of the technique, every practitioner of Water Stream Rock Smashing Fist has been able to utilize this technique no matter the level of mastery, even with its low difficulty compared to other techniques, it has built a solid foundation of control for my previous students."
"Sensei, is it like drinking water from a straw or a glass, should we try to absorb it all at once or slowly."(Doku)
"Good question, I recommend you start slowly since we're not in the middle of a battle, but being able to utilize the technique quickly will give you an upper hand with the downside that it's extremely difficult."
The children created water clones of their own before putting their hands on their shoulders and trying to get a feel for the Martial Aura... Bang had the most Expectations from Shiori, she had been the most attentive and had been learning his style for longer than Yuta and Doku.
"Sensei, how much time do think it would take us to completely master this technique."
"Complete mastery, as in absorbing in a second or less can take a few years, absorbing it in a minute can take a month or maybe a week, there has only been 1 student in my history of teaching who had partially mastered it in a few hours." Bang's last statement caused great shock at how difficult it can be to master this ability.
"But wouldn't that mean we won't be able to Graduate early?!"(Yuta)
"While I agreed to teach you this technique for that reason, always remember my goal is to make you achieve the best you can and you should never forget all merits are good for word, but what truly stands out the most is your strengths in all aspects of being a ninja, passing early may garner some claps and cheers, but it can also cause you to stagnate if you don't improve."
