Chapter 2 - Chapter 2, The Meticulous Little Genius

"Get up, continue training."

Tsunade released her grip on Raijin's collar and spoke to him.

Raijin could be said to be the first peer Tsunade had encountered since she was a child.

That embarrassed yet adorable face sparked a desire to conquer in Tsunade's heart almost instantly.

And what does a four-year-old know about restraint?

"Huh?"

Raijin looked at Tsunade in disbelief, propped himself up from the ground, and slowly stood up.

His legs were still trembling uncontrollably.

It was almost noon. If he returned home without his clothes being wet and his legs not trembling, he wouldn't be allowed to eat.

So, Raijin did dozens of squats just before noon to achieve this effect.

But now, did Tsunade mean to make him work overtime?

Impossible! Absolutely impossible!

"Sis, my morning training is over.

Raijin swallowed and tried to reason with Tsunade.

Tsunade glanced at Raijin's appearance, smacked her lips, and indeed, Raijin didn't look like he could continue training.

She waved her hand somewhat helplessly and said,

 "Let's go, really, you're too weak."

I mean...

Raijin gritted his teeth. Being called weak by a four-year-old was a real blow to his pride.

"Raijin, let's go, we're going home."

Just as Raijin was about to say something, Suisei's voice suddenly rang out.

"Hmm."

Raijin glanced at Tsunade, turned around without any hesitation, and left.

Tsunade watched Raijin's retreating figure but didn't say anything. She looked up at the sky. It was indeed time for dinner. Tsunade also headed towards the Senju house.

This was a small grove, located between the Senju and Uchiha houses, like the South Korea and North Korea, with a clear boundary."

But... which way to go?

Tsunade tentatively walked in one direction.

....

"Have you made a friend?"

On the way, Suisei asked Raijin, who was lying on his back.

"A friend? She is just a four-year-old brat...

Raijin, lying on Suisei's back, said disdainfully.

No matter what, I am a person with a psychological age of twenty-five

Even if that person is Tsunade, being friends with a four-year-old...

Impossible, absolutely impossible.

"Yes, yes, yes, in three months, Raijin will also be a five-year-old adult."

Suisei nodded in agreement upon hearing this.

Raijin opened his mouth, but in the end, he didn't say anything. He just sighed and rested on Suisei's shoulder.

Enjoying the rare rest time after a day's work.

"Have you learned all twelve hand seals?"

Seeing that Raijin was silent, Suisei didn't continue on this topic, but casually asked Raijin.

"Well enough"

Raijin closed his eyes and replied casually.

"What about the Chakra Refining Technique?"

Suisei twitched the corner of her mouth and continued to ask Raijin.

Said it, but it seemed like he didn't...

"I've already learned to refine the chakra."

Raijin replied weakly to Suisei.

"Raijin-san, you must be training so hard"

Upon hearing Raijin's tone, Suisei knew that Raijin must have practiced for four hours straight.

Isn't this just madness?

A daily training volume of eight hours, that's even including the time spent slacking off.

Have you ever wondered why no one is watching over your training?

"Suisei, you don't understand? What's the point of being weak? I have a feeling that if I keep this up for at most two more days, I can go to Konohagakure Hospital and enjoy the millet porridge made by Mama-san."

Raijin's hands drooped in front of Suisei's chest, speaking weakly.

Of course, it's just a small joke. Raijin knows very well what kind of world this is.

If you work a little harder now, the chances of surviving in the future will be greater.

This year is the seventeenth year of Konohagakure, and next year, the first Ninja World War will break out.

Following that, there will be the second, third, and even fourth wars.

In the next hundred years, there won't be a single day of rest.

In the past life, indulging oneself at most meant not getting into a good school or finding a good job.

In the end, it's just a bit poorer, but at least you can still live.

But in this life, if you don't work hard, you'll really die.

Being a child of the Uchiha family is already a great fortune. Children from civilian families don't even have the chance to work this hard.

"You really are a meticulous little genius."

Suisei's mouth twitched, helpless, and laughed wryly.

No matter from what angle, Suisei was very happy that Raijin was working so hard.

"Extracting chakra is just the first step. Being able to extract chakra anytime, anywhere is your future training direction."

Suisei imparted her own experience to Raijin.

It's like a fourth-grade student teaching a first-grade brother how to do homework.

The sense of superiority in his words was undisguised.

"I know, I know."

Raijin couldn't be bothered with Suisei. What's the point of competing with a seven-year-old's pride?

"But now that you've extracted the chakra, you can test the chakra attributes."

Suisei said as she walked towards home, and soon, they arrived.

"Is Raijin back?"

As soon as the door opened, a not-so-sturdy figure appeared in front of the two brothers.

Seeing Raijin, a satisfied look flashed in Uchiha Motohide's eyes.

Seeing Raijin's appearance, Motohide, an elite Jonin, knew that Raijin must have been slacking off, but not much.

He worked harder than Suisei when she was a kid.

"Dad, Raijin can already extract chakra."

Suisei saw Motohide and spoke directly to him.

"Is that so? Come in first.

Motohide nodded his head, picked up Raijin who was lying on Suisei's back, and held him in her arms.

"Are you tired?"

Motohide asked his son in his arms as he walked towards the living room.

"I'm almost dead tired..."

Raijin's head barely lifted, leaning on Motohide's shoulder, speaking weakly

Actually, he wasn't that tired, but once he got home, the fatigue seemed to explode all at once, and he didn't even want to move a finger.

"It's good to be tired. If you're tired now, you'll be more relaxed in the future, right?"

Motohide wasn't very good at coaxing children, he just put Raijin on the cushion.

He went into the bathroom and prepared a bath for Raijin.

"Go take a bath."

Motohide put clean clothes in the bathroom and spoke to Raijin.

In Motohide's concept, children only need to work hard at training, and everything else, he, as a father, will naturally arrange everything.

"Thank you, dad!"

Raijin got up from the cushion, waved at Motohide, and went into the bathroom.

"Is Raijin back?"

Uchiha Matsuri, Motohide's wife, also a member of the Uchiha family's elite Jonin.

At this time, she put a pot of freshly cooked meat on the coffee table.
