章 83: Chapter 82: Time Skip - 1 Year
A year has passed since Ken started training his magma fist jutsu.
All three members of the team continued to train during the past year. But that did not mean they stayed still for the entire year without doing any missions.
In fact, they completed the most number of missions by any genin team outside of the war in a single year in Konoha comprising of 6 B rank missions and countless C rank missions.
The Shinobi world got to know about the prowess of the genius team of Konoha and they had even put a bounty on each of them. Kabuto only had a bounty of 100k Ryo because he did not have any kekkei genkai and was just an orphan. Itachi and Ken had a higher bounty because of their kekkei genkais and their background in Konoha.
They also became famous inside Konoha. Many clans gave their kids examples of them to work harder and improve themselves.
The academy kids started practicing much harder to get an early graduation just like Ken, Itachi, and Kabuto.
As for their sensei, Shikuro spent a lot of time with his toddler son when he was not doing any missions with the team. He was quite worried and proud that his son was born with the same forbidden jutsu he had.
Proud because his legacy will continue even after his death and worried because without sufficient control over the insects/bacteria his son would not be able to make friends easily or come in personal contact with anyone.
Tonight, the team was going to meet for some team exercise.
Ken prepared all his equipment as he wore his signature black outfit.
He fitted his gauntlets on both of his hands. Two long blades came out of them as he pressed a button with his thumb to activate the mechanism.
"Cool" Ken muttered as he activated another mechanism of his gauntlet.
Both the blades were released from the gauntlet along with their handles.
Ken looked at the two swords in his hands as he swung them and with another tap of his thumb, they were attached back in the gauntlet.
"Now that's what I am talking about baby." Ken played with his gauntlets for another half an hour before going to meet his team.
The three genins have come a lot closer during the past year.
Ken was the last one to arrive at the training field. Itachi and Kabuto were already waiting for him. Shikuro had not arrived yet.
The genins have decided to meet up earlier to exchange some training and teamwork pointers.
"Can you come on time for once?" Itachi asked annoyed
"Don't blame me, Unlike you, I have a sense of fashion so I need to dress up properly," Ken said looking at Itachi's plain uniform in disgust.
"What fashion? You are just wearing all black," Itachi retorted back.
"Itachi, Itachi Wearing all black is to intimate my enemies. When would you understand this?" Ken said shaking his head in disappointment.
"Sure they are going to get intimated by you SHORTY!" Itachi said while emphasizing the last word.
A vein popped up on Ken's forehead.
Something that has not changed in the past year was Ken's height. While he has grown a little, he was still quite small even for his age of 7. Ken blamed his grandpa's genes for his short height.
"Youuuu, that's it, you are getting burned today. I would report that you died on a mission to your family. After you are dead, Then I would be the only one to pamper Sasuke. I will make sure that he doesn't remember you at all." Ken said with a devilish smile.
'Damn, that's a low blow!' Kabuto who was watching the fight commented in his mind.
"WHAT DID YOU SAY?!" Itachi's Sharingan came to life as he gave a death stare to Ken.
"Are you deaf now?"
"Youuuu"
Both of them started weaving hand signs before Shikuro appeared in between them.
"Now Now kids. Since you are all so eager to fight each other, I might give you a chance to go all out at each other," Shikuro said amused.
"Now you are talking, Sensei. I will kick Itachi's butt so hard that he becomes a girl."
Itachi did not say anything as he continued to glare at Ken.
"I don't want to fight though," Kabuto said nervously
"You would have to fight Kabuto. It's part of your team exercise today. You would have to learn how to fight when you are outnumbered. Besides, You all three have perfected the different jutsus that you have been working for the past year and you are free to use them in this fight." Shikuro said
Hearing the last part Ken and Kabuto had a wide grin on their faces.
"Oh, You are so screwed Itachi," Ken said
"Alright, We would be having 2 Vs 1 battles. You would win by eliminating both the members of the other team or the single person you are fighting against. First up will be Ken against Itachi and Kabuto. You can use only the area of this training field so that means you can't just run away from the fight." Shikuro explained the rules
"Now get to your positions."
