chapter 41

The anbu recruits ran through the forest as they chased town one of tatsumi's new paladins kashiko who was a turtle

Despite the belief that turtles were slow okake moved swiftly throughout the forest maneuvering around the anbu recruits and evading their capture.

Tatsumi chose this method of training as it was a great way of teaching the recruits how to work together and track down an enemy.

It will also help them by exposing them to enemies with greater speed and strength to improve their reaction speed and strategy.

"Master these recruits of yours are not half bad but they need better coordination."said kashiko.

"True and they also need better physical training I guess I have been neglecting my training of them."replied tatsumi.

"I wouldn't say that afterall you are quite new to teaching and your training already showed results."said kashiko.

Dozens of chains the rushed at kashiko buy he immediately vanished appearing behind the fifty anbu recruits.

"Damn it how is this turtle so fast even if he the commanders summoning beast."said shinichi one of the top anbu recruits.

"The first mistake you all made is assuming turtles are slow land turtles can actually move much faster than people realize."said Tatsumi.

Kashiko smiled hearing this as he vanished avoiding a slash from nagi another another anbu recruit.

"Okay kashiko you can end this battle now."said Tatsumi.kashiko then got serious as he vanished appearing infront of every anbu recruit knocking them out with quick efficiency.

"The reason you chose me specifically is because they would underestimate me believing I'm slow and weak isn't that right master."said kashiko.

"Yeah you got me but they'll all learn a valuable lesson never underestimate your opponents."replied tatsumi.

"Master but don't you underestimate your opponents all the time."said kashiko."Thats different when I underestimate an opponent I have absolute certainly I'll win but if they go into battle with that mindset they'll die."replied tatsumi.

"But isn't that quite hypocritical?"asked okake."I guess your right it is hypocritical. But even if I lose there are plenty of ways I can save my life however they don't have that ability."replied tatsumi.

"Doesn't make it any less hypocritical though."said kashiko as he disappeared into light particles."That damn turtle is starting to sound like the uzukage."said Tatsumi to himself.

He then looked down at the bodies of the anbu recruits as he placed his hand out as light particles came from his palm healing the recruits.

Tatsumi then teleported the bodies of the anbu recruits back to the base as he placed them in the their respective rooms.

Tatsumi then walked back into his office as he sat down plopping his head onto the desk.

"Being an anbu commander comes with way too many responsibilities I still have to go around and check for holes in the barrier."said Tatsumi.

Someone then walked into the office as tatsumi looked up seeing kushina."Looks like someone has had a long day."said kushina.

"What do you mean he's had a long day he basically made me do all the work."complained kashiko.

"What do you mean you did all the work all you did was avoid being hit by them."said Tatsumi.

A smirk appeared on kushina's face as she unfolded a scroll as the entire room was then filled with paper work.

Tatsumi's eyes went wide as his mouth went agape."I need better friends. "Said Tatsumi to himself.

"Make sure you don't use your bloodline as last time almost half the papers were burnt."said kushina.

"Yeah yeah I know now why are you really here I know you wouldn't just show up for paper work."said tatsumi.

"Oh yeah I came to inform you that we have a mission."said kushina.
