Chapter 26 - 24 (1/2)

On top of the rooftop of the shinobi academy, you can see two auras clashing to each other.

Kakashi feels like this soon going to be his cute little student is looking down on him, and he can't have that. He released the pressure of his chakra stronger than before, and he bared it down on Hikaru.

But under all that pressure, Hikaru just jumped down from the ledge and stood up easily on the ground of the rooftop. He stared at Kakashi and wondered how will he fair against his own chakra pressure. He decided to release 50% of it and tried to see what would happen.

As soon as he bared his Chakra onto Kakashi, Kakashi instantly felt the ground crack underneath him. He tried to fight it back but it was too strong and he slowly felt his body breaking under the pressure.

'What power! Hokage-sama did indeed told me he is strong, but not this strong! I feel like I'm standing in front of a live Kage!' Kakashi thought under all that pressure.

Hikaru decided to stop it and stopped all the pressure coming from him in an instant. Kakashi felt instantaneous relief as he felt all the pressure disappearing.

But under all this, Hikaru couldn't help but be surprise at this man's willpower. Normal Jonins wouldn't have been able to stand up, yet this man endured all that pressure while standing up. This man is worth a praise!

Kakashi cleared his mind a little before looking towards Hikaru.

”You're strong, incredibly so. But that warrants my suspicion on you, 3 years is not enough time to get this strong. So what are you? An enemy? Or an ally?” Kakashi asked him in his suspicion as he narrowed his eyes at Hikaru.

Hikaru wasn't surprised that Kakashi would asked him of this. He knew for a fact that his mere existence in this village is suspicious. He knew that, for his first year in this village, many Yamanaka had been sent by the Hokage to his and Azumi's house to check on his memory. It may not have been that obvious at first, but as time goes by, he slowly felt their presence. He was worried at what they would find out, so he talked about this with the Third Hokage, and he was surprised at what the old man told him. They did get a information on his head, and that was the ”memories” of him being in Lordran.

In those ”memories”, he was a peasant along with his family. In that world, he loved to read stories about the legends of the world. On how Gwyn won the war against the dragons, how the hero Artorias defeated the Father Of The Abyss, Manus at the cost of his life.

This is also why they didn't doubt him when it comes to his story about Lordran, the system already made his ”memories” according to his story. Though, he should admit that he was a fool for telling them the story about Lordran. He should've never told them to begin with. Such a foolish mistake.

Anyway, they believed them because of that. End of story.

Hikaru simply smiled at Kakashi and he did a simple bow of respect as he said, ”I'm neither of that, for I am simply a comrade of this village.”

Kakashi widened his eyes at his response for his question, and then he smiled underneath his masked and muttered, ”I see...”

Suddenly, the door on the rooftop opened, revealing Azumi, Sakura, and Sasuke. The two seemed to be tired, you can see that from their sweats, while Azumi seems to be quite energetic.

*Ha* *Ha* *Ha* ”Such disgrace from an Uchiha like me. Why am I so tired from just climbing up the stairs?” Sasuke said haggardly as he sat in the middle of the rooftop, along with the other two.

'Cha! Why am I so tired?! I looked pathetic in front of Sasuke-kun! I should diet more than I would so Sasuke-kun would look at me more!' Sakura just being an idiot.

'That wasn't even a warm up! Hikaru-kun would always make me train my physical body until I was tired!' Azumi thought smug as she saw her other teammates being so exhausted. She looks at Hikaru, who is behind Kakashi, and thought, 'But Hikaru-kun... he is on a different level.'

Kakashi looks directly at them and eye smiled before saying, ”Hello, my cute little students. First, let us introduced ourselves! You first pinky.”

'Hmm, he's quick at changing his phase.' Hikaru thought.

”Don't call me pinky! But could you elaborate a little?” Pinky said.

”Elaborate on what?” Kakashi asked, confused.

” Can you elaborate on how to introduce ouselves? You know, like giving an example?”

*facepalm!*

Hikaru couldn't help but facepalm at the sheer idioticness of this girl.

'And she's the smartest kunoichi of the year? Even my three year old sister knows how to introduce herself!'

”O-okay, alright I'll introduce myself as an example.” He flinched slightly at the idiotic question of that girl, ”I am Hatake Kakashi. I have a lot of hobbies, I like Icha-icha and other things. I hate people who don't know the greatness of Icha-icha. My goal right now is to get the latest icha-icha paradise volume. That's it. Now, you Pinky.”

She shyly looks at Sasuke and said, ”I am S-Sakura Haruno. I have many hobbies, but the one I like the most is just staring at Sasuke-kun all day, ” Sasuke fidgets as he felt the perverted stare of Sakura, ”I like Sasuke-kun and makeups. I hate Ino-pig and Azumi! My goal is to have lots, and lots of babies with Sasuke_kun!”
