It occurred to Daiki as he left his office, and felt multiple Anbu fall in behind him, out of sight.

That he had forgotten another avenue he had access to for learning one of the sub elemental bloodlines he'd obtained.

Rasa was a prolific user of the Magnet style. Granted, the buffoon used it entirely with gold dust, limiting the frankly absurd potential such an elemental bloodline had.

'Seriously, magnetism allows one to control one of the literal concepts, one of the outright building blocks that make up the entire universe!' Daiki thought, aghast at how much Rasa gimped himself.

Then again, he'd never heard of a more powerful magnet style user than Rasa or the Sandaime Kazekage now that he thought about it.

And the Sandaime Kazekage was scarce better than Rasa. The man literally used it to control Iron Sand.

In pitiful amounts at that.

If they actually understood physics. Or done some basic research into their element, they would realise they could draw iron sand from basically anywhere.

Frankly, Gaara used the magnet style far better than them in that regard. He was capable of breaking down entire swathes of land into sand using his control over the element.

But even so, it was such a one note way of using the ability. All three of them, basically just bastardized Shukaku's way of using the magnet style.

Misaka Mikoto they were not.

They could have rivalled Magneto himself. Instead, they all just wanted to play with sand.

That desert they all grew up in must have cooked their brains. Liquified it until it dribbled out of their ears.

It was a good thing for Gaara he was staying in Konoha now. The greatness of Konoha could heal his squishy weak Suna brain.

'I'll deal with that later.' he mused. There was no rush for now. His clones already had quite a bit to work on as it was.

"Cat." he called out.

A moment later, a cat masked anbu with familiar long purple hair dropped from above, taking a knee before him, "Hokage-sama?"

"Where is Tsunade right now?" he asked. He could find her easily enough if he wanted to look through the village with his eyes.

But he had people for that now.

"I believe she is currently eating out with her assistant, Shizune," Cat replied, "Earlier, she spent most of her time at the hospital taking stock of equipment, employed medical ninja and such."

Alright, that was good. It meant, she would have already taken heed of everything she needed to get things going.

"Go get her and Genin Rock Lee," Daiki ordered, "Have them meet me at the hospital."

"Yes, Hokage-sama!" Yugao nodded and disappearing with a shunshin to follow his orders.

'Hmm, not bad at all.' he noted, watching her go. Most chunin wouldn't even be able to see her move like that.

She might be a good option for rewarding with the Heavenly Seal. And, perhaps Yamato as well.

Sakura sighed, wiping the sweat from her brow as she finished. Letting the glowing green healing chakra fade from her hands, as the large fish set upon the table before her began to flop around, full of life.

Her arms tingled a bit, with a lack of chakra. And she resisted the urge to just lean against the table for a bit, and rest her eyes.

She was exhausted.

And would have been in bed recovering right now, if not for the fact the the legendary Senju Tsunade had returned to the village. And had let it been known, that she would be personally instructing any new medical ninja that caught her eye.

She couldn't let such a chance pass her by. Even so, her hand came up to rub her forehead, lingering on the diamond-like mark seal atop it.

Placed there by Daiki on the day of the chunin exams finals.

She resisted the urge to draw upon some of the chakra she'd stored within, over the past few days to use as a pick-me up.

It was hard going though for a second. She really was exhausted. With the Chunin Exams having finally come to an end, Team Seven was finally back together and training alongside each other once again.

…Only Naruto and Sasuke had changed over the past month, far more than even herself. They were so much stronger. They even pushed Kakashi during their sparring.

Singular sparring, not as a team.

She could still barely see Kakashi move, 'I'm still so far behind.' she bit her lip. She supposed that was expected, her own training had only ramped up over the past month thanks to tips, and a couple sessions with Daiki.

Sasuke who had been personally trained by Kakashi, and Naruto who had been training with Jiraiya of the Sannin of all people, and even let slip earlier he'd trained with Daiki once as well…

It was no wonder they were even further ahead despite her vast improvement. It was still frustrating though.

Especially since they'd both been proudly wearing chuunin vests. Daiki had promoted them both.

…She hadn't even seen him since the day of the finals.

The day he'd fought Orochimaru, and his absurdly powerful allies. The day he showed how truly powerful he really was, broadcasted live for all of Konoha to see.

And was crowned as the Godaime Hokage.

It was still surreal to think of Daiki as the Hokage. The unrepentantly pervy Daiki, always making quips about her 'dump truck of an ass'. Was the Hokage.

What even was a dump truck?

He was more than half a year younger than her as well!

Had there ever been a Kage in the history of the five great villages, to sit at that seat and bear the hat, at that age?

None came to mind.

The closest she could think of, was the Sandaime himself, who was around eighteen when he became Hokage if she remembered right.

"That's quite impressive."

Sakura looked over her shoulder at the sound of someone speaking behind her, and found herself looking into the dark eyes of Kato Shizune.

The one true student of Tsunade-sama. Her right hand more or less, who'd been by her side for over a decade.

She blinked slowly, "What is?" she asked.
