10.Upgrades for students

While the original was working to make more money. The clone reached the mission office, he saw his three disciples reading comics.

'It looks like they are prepared for my late arrival. Oh! how fast they grow up' he wiped the imaginary tear.

Fuyō notices his approach, looks toward him and smiles excitedly about getting her new clothes back. Although Ajisai looked calm, the tapping of her foot showed her impatience. As for Suiren maybe it was the Kakashi-style mask or she was not interested, but Akira couldn't guess a single thought in her mind.

Akira: "Sorry for the delay"

"Sensei! Clothes " Fuyō said stretching out her hands. Unrolling the scroll he unsealed the clothes for each of them." Here change into these then we will go on our mission".Handing them the clothes the three went to change while he went to talk to his date for tonight.

At the reception desk, Koemi was trying to concentrate on her work but her mind was filled with thoughts about the upcoming date. She has never dated anyone even in her life.

"Hello, the beautiful lady can I have a minute of your time? " she was thinking of scolding the owner of the voice. But when she looked up, she saw Akira leaning on the desk with his elbow at the table and hands on his chin smiling at her. She smiled back and said, "For Akira-sama, I have free time".

"Well, so what are your plans for the date tonight" Akira asked teasingly causing Koemi to get flustered.

"Date.....date or dinner something like that...". Due to embarrassment Koemi couldn't make up words.

Akira cupped her face with his hands and he looked directly into her eyes

Akira: "Okay Okay calm down. Take deep breaths "

Koemi took a deep breath. Although it looked like it was working, the reddening of her face and ears showed otherwise.

Akira: "Now what time do you get off work"

Koemi: "6'o clock"

Akira: "Okay we will meet in the market at 7'o clock today"

"That... Akira-sama your hands" she said weakly.

"Okay...Sorry, your face was so soft I really couldn't stop squishing them" after lightly pinching her face he reluctantly let go.

"If it's Akira-sama you can..." she murmured

"Okay," Akira answered plainly 'How can I Ignore such a great gift. Come my precious!'. But before the demon lord could lay hand on the saint three heroes arrived.

"Sensei we are ready" X3

"Tch...Well, next time. Right now we have to go on a mission. Here Koemi we are going to take this mission" Akira took the mission scroll. The mission was similar to the last mission. After completing the procedure he took his discipline toward the exit.

"See you in the evening Koemi"

"Okay, Good luck with the mission.Akira-sama"

After leaving the village they went to the mission location. The mission was similar to the last one so the three disciples start practising while working. Since they completed the work earlier they decided to stay for a bit more to train.

"Sensei I did it. " Fuyō said excitedly while standing upside down on a branch. She did a backflip and landed on the ground gracefully and walked toward him.

"Will I get a jutsu as a reward"

"Very good when all three of you complete this exercise I will take you all to a treat"

"Stingy"

'Well although it might be due to the upgrades still it is pretty amazing for her to do it in two days he thought "Fuyō come with me" he took her to the riverside. He showed her how to walk on the water.

"This will be your second exercise. You also have to use your sensing technique to keep sensing the situation of Ajisai and Suiren. Tell me when they complete the exercise"

He decided to upgrade the difficulty since more talent would require more challenge to shine. He took a beach chair from the scroll and decide to lay back and watch her fail miserably. 'Ah, good times' he thought. After nth time falling into the river Fuyō couldn't take it anymore.

"Ah! Sensei! it's too difficult, can I do one thing at a time"

"No, I believe you can do it"

"Sensei do you think I am talented " Fuyō said excitedly. She wasn't good at anything other than sensing. She knew it as her classmates were way better in ninjutsu, taijutsu and genjutsu.

"No it is because you are a student of Great Teacher Akira aka GTA " Akira said confidently 'Well you three also have the best gear in the whole ninja world. I even used all the metal Konan gave me'.

"Sensei..." Fuyo felt irritated. She knew she couldn't argue with his eccentric sensei.'But these clothes'. She could feel her progress was too rapid today. During training, it felt like she was doing the same things for hours even if it has been only an hour. She dispelled her thoughts and got back to training.

Splash! she again fell into the water.

"Sensei! I hate you"

'Hate me, my stupid disciple, hate me and grow. Nah! I am not gonna say that, Itachi does a better job at it' he smiled inwardly.

After a few hours of training, both Ajisai and Suiren completed the tree-climbing exercise. So Clone Akira showed them water walking. Of course, Suiren had to use the sensing technique but Ajisai didn't had to. After getting enough rest they went back to the village.

Around 6'o clock the mission at mission desk, clone Akira didn't find Koemi there.'She must have gone home'.

"Sensei treat" Suiren asked. Seeing his student tired and soaking wet. He rubbed her head and gave them hot bath coupons.

"How about you take a hot bath. As for the treat, I will take you to yakiniku tomorrow. I have something important to do today". He couldn't see their sad eyes so he used Mizu-Shunshin to get away. Causing cold water to fall on three of them.

'Sensei we will have our revenge' the three of them had the same goal in their mind. Well, the revenge did happen but that is a story left for another day.
