After returning home, Asahi first cleaned up the dust in his house. Since he hadn't been able to come home for nearly a month, the dust in the house had accumulated.
After clearing the house, he sat down by the window, drank a cup of tea, and looked at the scenery outside his window, enjoying a rare time of peace.
When the sun rises tomorrow, Asahi would start training around the clock.
From the moment he decided to become a ninja, Asahi set himself a goal, he must survive, and live to the end of the battle against Otsutsuki Kaguya, becoming the strongest in this world, knowing the mysteries of chakra and understanding the Divine Tree.
Without this goal, Asahi would had never been a ninja who went through life and death situations every day. As long as he were to stay in Konoha quietly and managed to survive the Nine-Tails Attack, the Chunin Exams Invasion and Pain's Attack, he would be able to live a normal, peaceful life. The future Team 7 members would have saved this world either way.
Although becoming a ninja was also his most natural path of action.
Asahi was a war orphan. He's supported by the village to make him a ninja and to serve the village in the future. If he decided to not go to the academy, the village would immediately cut off his relief money and let him find his own method of survival.
However, since he already chose to live as a ninja, he must has his own tolerance and persist in following his path.
And Asahi's goal was to become the strongest of this world.
Although this goal was difficult to achieve, and might not even be achieved at all, it's at least a direction for him to direct his efforts to.
…
On the following day, after finishing his morning training, Asahi ate his breakfast quickly and started to visit some people he knew one after another.
Teacher Yamamoto, Captain Ueno, Tsunade, Shinohara, etc. They were the people who have a deep relationship with him, Asahi visited them one after another to deepen feelings.
And this scene was also seen by the Third Hokage, which made him think that Asahi was the kind of ninja that cared about bonds like love and friendship, and he was naturally joyful about it, now he could be better integrated into the Hokage lineage.
As a disciple of Tsunade, Asahi was already considered a person of the Hokage lineage. Yesterday, he thought about it for a long time, and finally decided to do what the Third Hokage wanted, so that he would fully trust him and pour resources into training him as a confident.
As for Danzo's Root, Asahi was now completely uninterested in it.
When there was no way for him to attract attention, the Root was indeed an option for him. But now that Asahi had embraced the two thighs of Tsunade and Orochimaru. In the future, it might also be possible to embrace the Third Hokage's thighs. In comparison to them, Danzo was nothing.
Especially after joining the Roots, he would be controlled and lose all of his current freedom.
So Asahi now wanted to follow the Hokage wholeheartedly, and for that he must get the Third Hokage's approval.
Asahi's strength, was getting stronger and consolidated. He could now choose options according to his wishes. Realizing the benefits of strength for the first time, Asahi became even more committed to pursuing strength.
In this world, you can do what you want if you have enough strength.
…
In the afternoon, Asahi came to Konoha Hospital, knocked on the door and walked into Tsunade's office.
"Tsunade nee-san!" He greeted.
Although they were already master and disciple, Tsunade still liked when Asahi calls her 'Tsunade nee-san', rather than 'Tsuande-sensei' or 'Tsunade-sama'. Asahi was also happy, this was the way he could deepen his relationship with her.
"Oh, Shizune is here too!" Asahi glanced at the little girl next to Tsunade and said with a smile.
"Robber!" Shizune still didn't feel like welcoming him. As a scoundrel who robbed her of Tsunade's love and time, Shizune gave him several hateful glances.
"This time when fighting against the Sunagakure, you performed very well." Tsunade looked at him, and praised.
"It was all taught to me by Tsunade nee-san. The only way I can achieve what I have now, is inseparable from what you have taught me." Asahi said.
"Humph! No need to talk about that." Tsunade was the kind of woman who would turn her face every time something makes her uncomfortable, she would just pull down her face, and it's the same with anyone.
However, Asahi knew more about Tsunade, general praise still makes her happy. The reason she's upset now was that something else or someone had offended Tsunade and made her feel unhappy.
Easy to be angered by others was one of the characteristics of Tsunade after all.
Moreover, Tsunade also gets more angered the more familiar people were. The more she knows you, the more easily Tsunade would be angry with you. Especially Jiraiya, it's estimated that even he himself doesn't know how many times he was punched by Tsunade because of unknown reasons.
In fact, this was also because Tsunade wanted to be comforted by people she knows.
This woman with a powerful outward appearance was actually not as strong as she normally shows herself to be in terms of emotion.
Thinking of this, Asahi shrugged and asked, "Which blind guy offended you, Tsunade nee-san?"
"Tch! Don't mention it!" Tsunade lightly snorted, then glanced at Asahi and said, "As for you kid, you will be assigned to a team to execute missions, and the order will be issued within the next two days. But until the mission starts, you still have to come to Konoha Hospital and study medical-ninjutsu under me."
"I will be assigned to a team?" He asked with a puzzled voice, "I'm a chunin of the village and I have quite a good ninja experience. I can already lead a team to perform missions. Why does the village plans to assign me into a team?"
"How am I supposed to know that?" Tsunade rolled her eyes and said indifferently.
Seeing her appearance, Asahi speculated that Tsunade must know the reason. But since she didn't say anything, it might not necessarily be a bad thing.
"Either way, to a genius ninja like me, whatever I'm tasked with, I can accomplish it." Asahi said contentedly.
"Oh? Really?" Tsunade raised her chin slightly, and said coldly.
"Anger. I can feel it rising. Is it about to start...?" Asahi shivered while thinking
"By the way, Tsunade nee-san, is there something going on with Iwagakure and Kirigakure?" Asahi quickly shifted the subject.
"These two villages haven't had much movement yet. But we, Konoha, have just won, and even if they want to make a move, they need to consider Konoha's response." Tsunade proudly said.
Asahi nodded, and discussed the current state of the shinobi world with Tsunade, and stated the biggest purpose of this trip, "Tsunade nee-san, due to my age, chakra reserves is my biggest problem right now. I don't know if you can solve this problem?"
