(T/N: Enjoy!!)

<><><><><><>

Hearing Asahi and Shisui's words, Pakura's eyes turned even redder. Of course, she was reluctant to part with everyone, but in life, one must make choices. 

She couldn't bear to leave everyone, but she also couldn't abandon the village.

There would be a day to reunite in the future, so Pakura ultimately chose to stay in the village, protect it, and fulfill her dreams. 

With determination, Pakura bit her silver teeth and said, "Sorry, Master, Shisui, I still can't let go of the village."

"Although my power is limited, I still hope to bring help to the village."

Hearing Pakura's words, Asahi didn't say much. Shisui also understood Pakura's feelings. 

After all, he planned to return to the village once his strength improved a bit more.

In response, Shisui could only shake his head helplessly. He just hoped they wouldn't meet Pakura on the battlefield in the future. 

Watching Pakura's almost tearful expression, Asahi sighed inwardly, patting her head.

"Since that's the case, I won't inquire further. Just remember not to excessively pursue rapid strength growth."

"Your 'Scorch Release' hasn't fully matured yet, and there's significant room for development. There are also many directions for you to choose in Ninjutsu."

"So, don't rush to develop new chakra attributes or fuse new Kekei Genkai for the sake of rapid progress."

"As for Taijutsu, don't neglect it. It will be a lifesaving skill when you enter the battlefield in the future."

"Also, the Sage Mode I taught you, make sure to attempt practicing it only when your chakra level reaches that of a Jonin."

Feeling Pakura's strong desire to become stronger, Asahi was afraid she might impulsively try to learn everything he taught. 

So, before parting ways, he couldn't help but remind her.

Chuckles~

Seeing Asahi acting like a concerned parent, Pakura couldn't help but laugh. The previous melancholy feelings dissipated by half. 

At this moment, Asahi strangely resembled her deceased father.

Watching from the sidelines, Yugito, Shisui, and Sakumo couldn't help but smile. 

Asahi's current appearance was indeed a rare sight.

"Cough, Master, rest assured, I understand all of this. I won't be greedy for rapid strength progress and neglect the foundation." 

Seeing Asahi's slightly darkening expression, Pakura quickly adjusted her demeanor and spoke sincerely.

She had indeed desired to become stronger, but that was because she was initially too weak. 

If she couldn't become stronger, her dream would be challenging to achieve.

Now, everything was different. After becoming Asahi's disciple, Pakura's strength had improved by leaps and bounds. 

At present, her strength had reached a level she had never dared to imagine before.

Moreover, as long as she continued to practice steadily and solidify her foundation, she was certain to progress even further. 

She wasn't a fool, so under these circumstances, how could she destroy her progress?

All of this was just because Asahi cared too much about his disciples. Of course, Asahi himself didn't realize this. 

Hearing Pakura's words, Asahi's expression also returned to normal, no longer dwelling on his previous performance.

"Very well, then we'll be on our way." Asahi straightened his clothes and said to Pakura. 

"Take care, Master. I wish you a pleasant journey." Pakura sincerely spoke, and the sadness of parting resurfaced once again.

Asahi nodded, then turned and walked towards the outskirts of the Hidden Sand Village. 

He wasn't used to these farewell scenes. Seeing this, Sakumo quickly followed him.

"Sister Pakura, be careful, and if you ever enter the battlefield, make sure to prioritize safety." Yugito and Shisui, after a brief farewell, quickly caught up with Asahi. 

"You too, make sure to take care!" Watching the four figures gradually disappearing, Pakura shouted. 

This sudden outburst startled a nearby villager. The villager carefully rubbed his eyes and looked at Pakura, but he couldn't see anyone else.

'This young girl must be crazy!' He saw her talking to herself here just now, although he couldn't hear what she was saying. 

He was certain that Pakura was talking, given his exceptional vision. So, he felt something was amiss and quickly left.

He did see Pakura's ninja headband, and if she went mad and attacked him, it would be challenging to reason with her.

Pakura, oblivious to this, was still immersed in the sadness of parting. 

After standing in the same spot for a long time, she finally regained her composure. 

Farewells were inevitable; she hoped that next time, she could stand before Asahi in a better state.

Thinking about this, a smile appeared on Pakura's face. 

Turning around, she returned to the training ground to continue practicing. She couldn't let herself tarnish Asahi's reputation.

As for Asahi's impression of Pakura's behavior, although he didn't see it, he could guess. 

Even though they had spent less than two months together, Asahi understood Pakura quite well.

Pakura was not an indecisive person, and immersing herself in sorrow like this was not something she would do. 

So, Asahi wasn't worried about Pakura's condition.

.....

At this moment, they had completely left the range of the Hidden Sand Village. 

Watching the vast desert, Asahi chose a direction and started moving. 

This time, his destination wasn't a major ninja village but a massive source of chakra. 

As for the magnitude of the chakra fluctuations there, let's just say that Asahi was still several hundred kilometers away.

In theory, Asahi shouldn't be able to sense anything from this distance, except if he maintained Sage Mode continuously, allowing him to perceive things through nature energy.

However, even without Sage Mode, Asahi could still sense the fluctuation through nature energy. 

One could imagine how immense this chakra fluctuation was.

Asahi had detected this powerful chakra when he was approaching the Land of Wind, but since the timing wasn't right, he didn't go there immediately. 

Instead, he chose to go to the Hidden Sand Village.
