He digested Isobu's words for a moment, before a shit eating grin appeared on his face, "There's nothing that can hold us back anymore." Daiki laughed.
For sure, he was confident in his ability to defeat even both of them using the Eight Gates. And far beyond that if he wanted to risk his very life. But, even if the ability to handle the Gate of Death and live, it would not be a pleasant experience.
And he didn't want to ever have to rely on the Gates.
And now, he didn't have to unless Kaguya bust her ass out of the moon or something like that anytime soon.
And soon, even she would not be his match.
It wouldn't be long after all. Before he obtained the Rinnegan as well. And once he had obtained it, and Senjutsu.
He would be able to obtain Six Paths Senjutsu.
And he would truly surpass all that came before him. Indra, Ashura, Hamura, Hagoromo, Kaguya-
It didn't matter. They would all fall behind the one true Hokage. The fire shadow that would illuminate the very world itself.
'Mmm, seven out of ten as far as inner monologues go. It was a bit too poetic there at the end, too out of character for you,' Isobu laughed lightly, making Daiki snort, 'We've seen your increase in physical ability and chakra. But, what about your healing factor?'
Daiki's head perked up, "That's a good question actually." he nodded. His healing was already very potent. He could heal broken bones in a minute, and stab wounds in thirty or so seconds.
And he could regenerate lost limbs, given enough time.
But, with Hashirama's absurd cells bolstering him? He had no idea just how potent his healing factor had become.
'Well, there's a quick way to check.' he thought, as he lifted his hand and stared at his fingers. With a thought, a familiar black sphere seeped out of his body, floating in front of him for a second.
Before forming into an ebony black kiba blade. Lightning shrieked into existence around it as he grabbed it with his other hand, before bringing it down atop his other hand-
'Wait, you idiot!' Isobu protested.
But it was too late, as the Truth Seeking Kiba Blade, cleaved through one of his fingers halfway through, with no resistance at all.
There was nothing that could resist it after all without Senjutsu.
He grit his teeth the half of his finger dropped to the ground. It plopped against the ground and bounced back up a few inches-
But before it landed the second time, the severed half of his finger had already regrown.
Daiki blinked, letting go of the Truth Seeking blade and letting it collapse back into a sphere, before merging with his body seamlessly again, "Goddamn!" he gaped.
'Goddamn is right…but putting that aside, what the hell is wrong with you Daiki?' Isobu growled annoyed, 'Don't just mutilate yourself!' he scolded.
Daiki rolled his eyes, "It's fine. I could heal from that easily enough in an hour before anyway. And my mythical palm and the other healing techniques I've picked up would have dealt with it regardless." he replied as he bent down, picking up his severed finger and sealing it away in his palm seal.
'That's not the point you brat!' Isobu huffed, 'Just because you can heal from something, is no reason to hurt yourself. Do that again, and I'm withholding my chakra from you for a year.'
"Oi, oi what the hell! That's not fair!" Daikis squawked, "Don't treat me like a child over something so small!'
'You are a child. Being Hokage, and as powerful as you are, does not change that. And you ever act your age at times like this,' Isobu growled back, 'I am not your parent boy. And you rarely have ever needed one. But I will not sit back and allow you to damage your body just because it can heal, as if it is nothing of importance.'
Daiki, didn't know what to say to that. He didn't even get what he did wrong to be honest. He didn't get the big deal. Sure, it hurt a little, but it was nothing he couldn't heal!
He wanted to argue back.
But, he knew well enough that it would get nowhere with Isobu. So he grit his teeth, and held his tongue, "Fine." he relented, shoulders slumping.
He still didn't get the problem. But he acquiesced regardless. If it got Isobu rankled up and angered so much, then it was a small thing to not do again. It wasn't a big deal in the end regardless.
'I'm sure one day, you'll understand,' Isobu sighed, 'And with the way you hop around, it probably won't actually be that long.'
…What?
'Nothing you need to worry about for now,' Isobu replied wryly, 'Just take better care of yourself Daiki.'
Whatever, it didn't matter what he was going on about for now.. He had other things to focus on. Like, the bevy of Wood Style training instructions and Jutsu he had. And all of the Ice Style Jutsu and training methods he'd learned from Haku.
Now that he'd obtained them all, it was time to put his clones to work, 'Not to mention, I can increase the amount of clones I use!' he pumped his fist.
He'd started with seven hundred training each day lately. But now, since this morning, his chakra capacity had increased more than ten times over.
'Eat your heart out Naruto.' Daiki laughed lightly to himself as he made his way over towards the area where his clones were training.

He was pleasantly surprised when he was done with his clones, and left Isobu's dimension behind in a swirl of rippling space-time, appearing in his office.
The clone behind the desk, doing his paperwork, glanced up at him, before ignoring him and getting back to work.
The grind was eternal like that. Even for paper work.
As it was, he'd only had a few things left for his clones to specifically work on beyond general training. A few of the seals he'd picked up during his trip, and finishing up learning the Flying Thunder God.
Between seven hundred clones.
They were all taken care of, and the knowledge and mastery of them, flowed into his mind when he dispelled all seven hundred of them.
And replaced them with three thousand shadow clones. He could have made more, but in this case, he decided to go with a little less, in return for giving each clone more chakra to work with at once.
And left with them, the instructions on the Wood Style Toka had gotten for him. And they already knew everything needed for training the Ice Style thanks to Haku.
The only thing he'd had to do as well, was bring over the female lemming from his other personal dimension. Guren that was, to instruct his clones on the training for the Crystal Style and all of the Crystal Style jutsu she knew.
'Now then, it's about time to go pay a visit to Lee.' he mused.
