Chapitre 33: Chapter 33: The Snake
[AN: thanks for the PS rinn29. Hopefully I get more free time to write later.]
Shikkotsu forest
1 week passed in a blink of an eye and Osamu almost completed the development of Hiraishin level 5.
On the bright side, he was able to finally create his own marking as part of the process. This way he get to use the Hiraishin level 1.
It was a very simple English word "Trīggēr", but it was not yet to the level of Minato where he was able to mark anyone anytime.
Just one marking took him hours to accomplish and that is considering that he is using a very simple/crazy English word.
With that said, Osamu used his time here to mark his kunais on hand. And in one week he gets to mark only 9 of them.
"Thank you for letting me train here Lady Katsuyu." Osamu said while bowing to the Slug just his height which Katsuyu produced to converse with him and observe his training.
"It was fun watching you try hard with vigor in each failure, there is no doubt that you will succeed, Osamu-sama."
Osamu smiled.
"I will be going back home now, I will see you again."
"Anytime at all. It's nice to have company here."
"Bye, Lady Katsuyu!" Osamu waved and vanished in front of her.

Osamu Old Residence
His home didn't change much. The bedrooms of his parents and sister were tiddy as he always clean them up when he got the chance.
He didn't even redecorate the place. Their pictures still stand in the living room and each rooms.
But in his very room, were the pictures of his family and him.
This is also where he placed his first marking in the Shinobi world.
"I'm home, Mom, Dad, Shiori. I hope you guys are peacefully resting in the pure lands." Osamu said softly as he traced the figures of his family on the pictures.
Osamu took a bath afterwards and went to the Hokage tower where a meeting was to be held for all Jonins.
As what to expect, it was time to nominate their students who they think are qualified to take the Chunin exam. To which, Osamu didn't fail to nominate his team.
After the meeting
"GG, I want you to hold this with you always." Osamu gave one of his Kunai with his marking. It was an ordinary Kunai like any Kunai.
"This is?" Hiruzen confused asked.
Why would Osamu give him something like a kunai, he also have a lot of them. Osamu simply smiled and rubbed the back of his head.
Then suddenly it clicked in Hiruzen's head as he saw Minato in Osamu.
'he's learned it!'
"Well well, I am glad you have made progress in that area."
"Thanks GG, it's not as advance as the 4th but I'm definitely stepping on the first step." Osamu said.
"Good, good. Can you tell me more about your team?"
And that was the start of their discussion about his team, his current progress as a Shinobi, how he was feeling and if there was any problems.
Osamu of course, entertained Hiruzen and both would laugh together from time to time. Although the Anbus were secretly and diligently guarding from the shadows, they listened less to the discussion to not be distracted.
But one particular silver haired Anbu was actually smiling behind his mask as he listened.
Soon Osamu went out of the Office to meet with his students. It was already arranged that they will meet in the afternoon.

Training Ground 3
Osamu presented the papers his team needed to be able to participate in the Chunin exam.
"Do your best and make it to the final round. Then I will reward each of you."
The three immediately perked up. Over the months that they were under him, this was the first time he spoke of rewards.
Even when they completed the basic chakra control exercises or mastered the jutsu he tasked them to learn. Not once did he reward him. Not even completing missions from D to C and 1 particular B-rank mission in the land of waves.
So hearing him say it now they had their own curiosity as to what kind of rewards is he going to give them.
Knowing that, they were more pumped up to be able to pass the Chunin exam.
His gift was of course his marked kunai.
A few hours later
Team 7 passed the first stage and were now inside the forest of death.
They were separated for a moment when Naruto excused himself to pee.
Not even a few minutes after separating from his team Naruto was attacked by a giant Snake so he had to defend himself.
Ultimately Naruto defeated the snake by using shadow clones to burst out inside it's neck when he was about to be swallowed.
When he reunited with his team, Sasuke and Hinata were already engaged in a heated battle against an Oto nin.
Few moments earlier
After Naruto went to pee, an individual was already approaching them wearing an Oto nin outfit from a distance.
Upon Hinata's signal Sasuke prepared himself and turned to his direction.
Seeing their stance, the figure was not surprised since the girl has Byakugan. Hence there was no need to pretend or act his way in.
But that was not his objective today, no. His objective was to assess Itachi's brother, if he already awakened those eyes.
Sasuke and Hinata were already on their guard. Aware of the situation they were wearing very serious expressions without a hint of fear.
Upon seeing this, Orochimaru who was in disguise was amused.
'According to Kabuto their sensei was a newly appointed Jonin who had a very traumatic incident involving Danzo's demise.'
Without a warning, Orochimaru projected his killing intent towards them.
However, the effect was not within his expectations when Sasuke and Hinata simply retreated away from him.
"Hoh, they've been trained very carefully it seems."
Orochimaru disappeared from his location and immediately catched up to the retreating Sasuke and Hinata.
Once in a certain distance, Orochimaru wanted to talk but found himself face to face with a fireball Jutsu.
He easily evaded it and saw that Sasuke and Hinata were no longer there.
Once more he tried to catch up.
This time he was in front of them.
As he was about to speak, Water Shurikens were flying towards him.
Orochimaru created an Earth Wall to block the jutsu. There was no need to look as he felt them already ran away to the opposite direction.
Very much more amused instead of being annoyed that two Genins were playing tag with him, Orochimaru made his way in speed that Sasuke and Hinata could not cope to guard against.
They were both kicked to the side by Orochimaru.
"It seems that both of you doesn't want to talk much so why don't I make you unable to move first?"
Orochimaru spoke as snakes came out on each of his sleeves and rushed towards Sasuke and Hinata.
Naruto arrives at the scene and throws a kunai with pinpoint accuracy hitting both snakes on their head.
"Get away from them!" Naruto declared.
"You're going to face me instead! Tajuu Kage Bunshin Jutsu!"
Multiple Naruto appeared in an instant and attacked Orochimaru still in his Oto nin skin.
