Chapter 5 Ordinary Geniuses

In the small forest behind the Academy, the afterglow of the setting sun gradually disappears on the horizon.

Asuma is like a stone statue that has lost its soul, standing in the forest and muttering to himself, "Impossible, impossible..."

On the side, moved the "silk thread" on his fingertips and asked, "Asuma, is this chakra?"

Asuma came back to his senses and looked at Sōseki with a complicated look, 'How can he learn refining chakra so quickly? Could it be that I am in Shinōbi? Could it be that I can't match him in terms of ninja talent?"

It takes about half a month to a month for a medium-talented person to learn refining chakra, while a genius can do it in just three days —this is what the Tokubetsu Jōnin tutor said to him when he was able to do it in three days.

He didn't think that it would take half a month for Sōseki to learn to refine Chakra. As an "expert" recognized by him, it was very reasonable for Sōseki to learn to refine chakra within five days.

'However, it's been less than ten minutes since I taught him, if I'm a genius, then what is he...' Asuma stared at Sōseki like looking at a monster, and finally couldn't help but ask. "You, who are you? How did you succeed doing that in one go?"

Sōseki shook his head slightly and said, "Actually, this is not the first time I have refined chakra."

Asuma was perplexed. "Huh? Didn't you say no one taught you how to refine chakra?"

"Maybe you don't know yet Asuma, but I actually have been working as a nurse for patients in the hospital. Although I don't have chakra myself, I have actually seen many scenes of elder sister nurses refining chakra." Sōseki explained with a smile, "And today, didn't Yagami-sensei talked a lot about the chakra's theory?"

"Huh? He did?" Asuma asked in a daze.

He didn't get distracted or sleep in class, but he had learned this knowledge in advance, and he has never paid attention to theory. In his opinion, it is better to practice the speed of forming hand seals.

Sōseki is not surprised by Asuma's reaction. In the Academy, theoretical knowledge has never been valued, and what teachers valued more was the students' practical operation and on-the-spot adaptability.

Therefore, when conducting some theoretical exams, the Academy not only does not oppose cheating, but even encourages students to cheat, as long as the means of cheating are not too obvious.

"Of course there is." Sōseki said in a gentle, unhurried tone, "I also learned a complete theoretical knowledge today. Before today, I already have some understandings of chakra, so I managed to figure out what refining chakra is and how to do it today. It's a pity that the refining chakra method I imagined is too rough, so I did not succeed in doing that until now."

"Oh, so it's like that." With Sōseki's explanation, Asuma feels that it was much easier to accept.

But what he didn't know was that it is actually far more terrifying for Sōseki to reverse the refining chakra method just by looking at other people's refining chakra and understanding the theory of chakra than being able to refine chakra in one go.

After saying that, Asuma is full of energy again, "As expected of my destined enemy! But I want to remind you that chakra is only the foundation, and Ninjutsu is the root of Ninja! Those mediocre Ninja may take a few years in order to learn the most basic Three Bodies Technique, but for talented geniuses like us, it won't take that much time!"

Sōseki nodded in agreement, 'Yeah, this world has never been fair.'

Seeing that Sōseki agreed with his view, Asuma was even more delighted. For the first time, the feeling of a close friend rose in his heart, "Let's go, I'll treat you to eat at Ichiraku Ramen." (A/N: Ichiraku Ramen is already opened at this time as Kakashi and Obito also ate in here in their childhood)

"I should be the one who treat you. If it wasn't for your help, I would be very troubled today."

"But, is the relief fund given by the village enough?" Asuma hesitated, as he also knew that Sōseki's living condition is not very good.

"Have you forgotten? I'm still helping out in the hospital." Sōseki smiled warmly. "At least, it's okay to treat a friend to have a meal at Ichiraku Ramen."

"Friend, is this a friend?" Asuma whispered to himself, only feeling sore in his nose, and then quickly changed the subject, "By the way, I think your skills in manipulating chakra threads just now seem to be quite good. How did you do it?"

"Well, it's mainly to test the ability to coordinate and control the body and mind. If you want to learn, I suggest you start with ordinary sutures... By the way, you can find a lot of unpeeled animal skins in the market."

Seeing Sōseki speaking such a terrible thing in a very gentle tone, Asuma couldn't help but laugh dryly, "Ha... …Haha, forget it, I don't plan to be a puppet master or a Medical-nin."

...

Sandaime Hokage's home.

"Today should be Asuma's first day of school, right?" Seeing Asuma hadn't returned home even after so late, Sandaime rubbed his brows and sighed, "It's only the first day but he's already like this."

"Hokage -sama, you may have really misunderstood Asuma-sama this time." The ninja standing beside him replied respectfully.

"Oh?" Sandaime looked towards the side with some surprise. He knew that although Okawa Takeuchi was a bit sleek, he would never dare to lie to him about this kind of thing.

"Can you tell me what is going on?"

"According to the information I got, Asuma-sama performance in the Academy today is very impressive! He was the only person in the class who hoped to serve everyone and ran for the class leader. Although he failed to become the class leader, Asuma-sama eventually became cherished friends with the other party..." Okawa Takeuchi "briefly" explained the process in between," Asuma Young Master did not go home today because he wanted to help his friends master the refining chakra method as soon as possible."

"Oh? Asuma lost!" Sandaime's eyes lit up. Although his son's character is a bit rebellious, his talent was indeed good. In addition, he had the bonus of being the son of Hokage, so Sandaime never expected Asuma would lose the election.

But as he hear the next sentence, he felt that something is wrong.

"Friends? Help?" The corners of Sandaime's mouth twitched slightly, "Your statement made me even more confused. Can you tell me the details of the incident?"

Okawa Takeuchi took out a document with embarrassment and handed it to Sandaime.

Looking at the records on the document, the corners of Sandaime's eyes jumped wildly as Asuma's performance is indeed very "eye-catching".

Well, it almost blinded his old eyes.

But soon, his attention was drawn to another person mentioned in the document.

"Son of the civilian Ninja who died in the war? It's really amazing for him to have such a positive and sunny mentality even after all that."

Sandaime sighed slightly, and at this moment, his eyes were suddenly firmly attracted by the sentence on the document, and he couldn't take his eyes away from it, 'You don't become the Hokage to be acknowledged by everyone. The one who is acknowledged by everyone becomes the Hokage!'

'This kind of belief...' Sandaime was really moved this time. He couldn't imagine that this kind of speech came out from the mouth of a five-year-old child.

'I saw the brilliance of 'Will of Fire' in him! It is precisely because of the younger generation like him that everything we do is meaningful, and heroic will sacrificed in the war can continue to be passed on.'

After pondering for a moment, Sandaime said again, "Remember to remind me of the match in half a month."

Okawa Takeuchi was surprised and said, "Hokage-sama, do you want to go in person..."

Sandaime smiled and said, "Don't think too much, I'm just...as a father, I care about my son's performance."

Upon hearing this, Okawa Takeuchi's expression suddenly changed, 'So it's like that. I understand!'
