He did his level best to give Fu the best date she could ever want. He spoiled her, taking her to the most expensive restaurant in Waterfall.

It ate a chunk into his savings, but that didn’t matter as long as Fu was fine. And afterwards, they went to the theatre where he took her to watch the latest Princess Gale movie that just came out.

She was for sure surprised me he revealed to her that Princess Gale, the actress, was in fact a real princess.

And afterwards, he finished up by just shooting the breeze with her, walking hand in hand through the village and visiting the great tree overlooking the village where they did battle with Suien.

The date ended up dragging on a lot longer than he planned for, and the few hours he planned on staying, turned into seven.

Especially after he took the time to loosen her seal for her, to allow Chomei to share his chakra with her more freely. It would be begrudging for sure to start, but he was sure that now that Fu and Chomei were forced into more regular contact, she’d grow on the big bug bijuu.

Before long however, it was time for him to leave Waterfall behind. Anko would be going spare after all.

Up above the village itself, in the massive branches of the tree overlooking the entire village, they sat atop one of the branches, peering out over the Land of Fire.

So high in the air were they, he could actually see Konoha far off in the distance, "This was fun." Fu mused, leaning against him, chin on his shoulder.

"It was," he agreed, one arm wrapped around her waist holding her close to him, feeling the warmth of her body against him, "Coulda done without being forced to flash my dick in in the cinema bathroom for you to take a picture though."

"Heh." Fu just smirked

Then she sighed, "It was fun getting to see you in person again pervy Daiki," she mused, "Next time though, I don’t wanna wait so long to see you again." she burrowed her chin into his shoulder as she whispered.

"Don’t worry, I’ll make sure to come visit you more often. Now that I can fly, I’ll be able to zip here and back to Konoha quickly whenever I want," Daiki assured her, "How could I resist after seeing you like this after all." he cheekily winked and squeezed her waist.

"Such a perv." the mint haired seventeen year old giggled.

"Says the girl obsessed with my dick." he snorted, pressing a kiss to the crown of her head.

They stayed like that for a little while longer, before he had to leave. He soared off into the air, while Fu watched from the tree overlooking the Waterfall Village, a small smile on her face, then raised her hand.

A rippling wave of chakra spread through the air, and then echoed in his mind as her message landed true.

’Next time, I’ll give you something even better to look at.’

Daiki grinned.

Upon their return to the village, the great and amazing Daiki and Anko were bundled up into the old mans office for a debriefing.

The dry look on old man thirds face as he explained what he got up to in general during the mission - leaving out the adventures of his clones - such his supremely amazing assassination of a nasty ass looter, the meeting with Mei Terumi, securing the Village Hidden In The Mist’s allegiance, and of course...his shaboinky with Tsunade-

Well, one could be forgiven if they confused his old leather skinned face with the sands of the Suna desert and-

"Stop," Sarutobi palmed his face, giving Daiki a baleful look, "Why are you narrating?"

Daiki opened his mouth, but the old man cut him off, "No never mind," the Hokage rolled his eyes, "I’m more interested in these supposed adventures your clones got up to that you’re leaving out. Especially when you didn’t see fit to leave out your...passionate affair with a woman, who is both my former student and is like a daughter to me. Thank you for that by the way."

Daiki flashed him a thumbs up, "No can do, spoilers and all that," he grinned, before slamming his palms on the old mans desk, "I’ll tell you later, but more importantly. Put the paperwork through old man and promote me to Elite Jonin, get it all ready for me to pick up straight after the exams. I’ve got a student I want to take on."

Besides that, nothing was ever sure in this world. There was a slim, slim slim slim tiny insignificant decimal pointed chance, that the old man could possibly die during Pedomaru’s little invasion.

If he did, he’d be thrust straight into the Hokage position, from genin.

"...That’s already been done though, I told you I took care of that during our training together, remember?" Hiruzen raised a brow.

Daiki raised one right back, "....Totally...."

"Apparently you weren’t listening at all. I’ve been spreading your exploits through the village and the land of fire, growing your legend and making sure your name is on a lot of lips, to make your eventual ascension to Hokage all the more seamless," Hiruzen rolled his eyes as he explained, "Including that you are so impressive and your deeds so great, that you’re promotion has already been decided on. Besides, you’re already teaching little Hanabi Hyuuga, you don’t need to be a jonin to continue doing so or put an official title on it."

Oh, huh-

He was wrong on one thing though, "It’s not for Hanabi," Daiki replied, leaning on the desk and grinning at the old man, "I want to take the Kurama clan girl as a student."

Hiruzen gave him a befuddled look, "You want to take a girl older than you, as a student?" he asked dubiously, "A girl, who is the opposite of you. Quite timid, withdrawn, and not at all very physically impressive. Albeit, she has great talent for Genjutsu...something you pay the least attention to in your training."

Daiki simply nodded, grin widening, "Yeah about that," he continued, "Lemme take a peek at the Forbidden Scroll will you? I know Bringer of Darkness is in there. You said I could remember?"

Hiruzen sighed, reaching into his desk drawer to retrieve his pipe, and lit it with a simple puff of his lips. He took a deep puff of it, before breathing out a cloud of smoke and giving Daiki another dry look, "I remember something to that degree, but the fact you bring up such a thing in relation to poor sweet Yakumo, is making me very suspicious," he narrowed his eyes lightly, "Why exactly do you want to teach a girl you’ve never met before to my knowledge. Who has a very different specialisation than you. You are aware of the Ido correct?"

Daiki scoffed, "Old man, I don’t specialise in anything except being a badass that all the ladies love, I’ve just not focused as much on Genjutsu, but I’ll master it too," he waved him off, "And of course I know about the Ido, that’s why. Let me take the girl as a student, I’ll turn her into a genjutsu monster that Itachi Uchiha would rather run that fight."

Hiruzen steepled his hands together and leaned forward over the desk, holding eye contact with Daiki, till they were nearly touching foreheads, "Itachi is a master of the Tsukiyomi, one of the most formidable techniques in existence. It is a genjutsu so potent that it can effect the body itself," the Hokage told him seriously, "He can speed up your perception inside that genjutsu over a billion times. In a single second of being trapped inside that genjutsu, if he so desired he could make you experience a thousand years and it will reflect on your body. He has done such things before. Do not take Itachi Uchiha lightly."

Oh great, even in this world he couldn’t escape Itachi glazing. It took an awful lot of effort for Daiki not to roll his eyes. He respected the old man, a lot, he really truly did.

But Itachi?

Powerful as he was, Daiki thought he was an utter buffoon. An absolute waste of talent.

"Not impressed, I’d no sell it," Daiki shrugged, or he would. So what if Itachi could make him live a thousand years? Three thousand he supposed considering it was a thousand years per second according to the old man. He’d just convert a ton of chakra he’d stored into life force and laugh in Itachi’s face, "I’m a perfect jinchuuriki remember? My big turtle buddy would break me out of it instantly."

Besides, Sasuke already proved it was possibly to resist and break Tsukiyomi with the Sharingan to counter it and skill with Sharingan genjutsu.

And what Sharingan genjutsu was as bullshit as Tsukiyomi? Kotoamatsukami. Once he’d made Shisui’s Sharingan his, Itachi was cooked. That finger poking buffoon that never explained fucking anything. Cryptic useless idiotic cunt.

"I suppose that’s the best I’ll get from you, but I’ll caution again, never underestimate Itachi Uchiha," Hiruzen warned, before leaning back and sighing as he took another puff of his pipe, "Very well, after the chunin exams, you may take young Yakumo as a student as well."

Perfect. Once he got her as a student, he was going to leverage his position to get Hanabi to graduate early and become an official genin under his leadership and teach her properly.

In the time it took for the ’shippuden’ point to come about, he was going to make both of them S-class kunoichi.

"And?" Daiki challenged, raising both eyebrows and casting a glance at the large scroll residing behind him.

Hiruzen rolled his eyes, "Fine, considering you went above and beyond in your mission and even convinced Tsunade to come back somehow, you deserve it. but you’re not leaving my office with it," the old man clicked his tongue, "And you’re only allowed a half an hour with it."

He resisted the urge to laugh in triumph. With the enhanced mental abilities his Shinkugan gave him, memorizing it all would be a cake walk.
