The Adventurous Gamer Ninja - Daichi Hekima [Vol. 01]

Chapter 84 - The Rasengan

Daichi ended his conversation with Kakashi and left. He headed straight for Naruto and Iruka sensei.

'Naruto's chakra is like a beacon for any competent sensor ninja. Even in this large forest it's easy to find him.' Within a minute he reached his classmate and teacher.

Iruka was relieved to see his student come back unharmed. "Daichi! You're safe. Are you hurt anywhere?"

"You're back!" Naruto ran up to him and gave him a tight hug.

Daichi chuckled and pried Naruto off of him. "Yes I'm here. And I'm fine you guys. You worry too much."

Confirming that Daichi was uninjured, Iruka started grilling him for the stunt he pulled. "What were you thinking? You could have gotten hurt or worse.!"

"Yeah! What's the big deal? I thought you would escape with us." Naruto also questioned him.

"Clam down. They would have defeated the clone easily and I knew you two wouldn't agree to me staying behind." Daichi said with a calm tone.

Iruka narrowed his eyes. "So you decided to lie to us!"

"Technically I didn't lie. I said I'd use my clone as a distraction but I never said they were the ones who'll be distracted." The boy said with a sheepish expression.

"You could have gotten hurt Daichi! If you had intended to fight them then I could have helped."

"I had it handled sensei." The boy let out a small sigh. "I figured the documents Naruto found were important since they were willing to attack us for it. And if all of us had stayed, then there was a chance they would have used us against you."

He continued. "Besides, my clone told you that he sensed a Jonin was nearby. I'm sure he would have saved my life if anything had happened."

"Who was it?" Naruto asked curiously.

Daichi shrugged. "Don't know. He had silver spiky hair and wore a face mask that covered everything except one eye."

Iruka's eyes slightly widened as he heard that description. 'Kakashi? He was here?'

The academy instructor pinched his nose and let out a long tired breath.

"Let's go to the Hokage's office. We need to report this matter."

—-----------------------------------------------

Naruto, Daichi and Iruka entered the Hokage's chamber shortly after they reached the tower.

"Gramps!!" Naruto greeted the Hokage.

"Lord Hokage." Iruka and Daichi also quickly greeted their kage.

Hiruzen looked at the two kids in the room. He had a warm smile on his face as he addressed them.

"So what troubles have you two gotten yourselves into this time?" He asked, smiling.

Naruto excitedly recalled everything that happened. From how he was tricked to Daichi finding him, to Iruka showing up and then escaping the three enemy ninjas and finally finding out about Daichi's clone and then anxiously waiting for him.

Hiruzen patiently listened to everything and now had a clearer understanding of what had happened. He looked at Daichi.

"What you did was reckless... But since you're here safe and sound I won't speak on the matter any further."

"Thank you lord Hokage." Daichi slightly bowed and said nothing else.

Hiruzen then asked Naruto for the kunai he found in the forest. Naruto gave the weapon to the Hokage. The old kage untied the document from the weapon and his eyes slightly widened as he looked at the contents.
