Chapter 67 - Chapter 067: Meeting With New Teammates

"Senmei Asahi, what are you doing? Assaulting a member of Anbu will make you an enemy of the village!" The Anbu spoke harshly.

"Release the [Transformation Jutsu], or I will kill you immediately!" Asahi coldly said. 

According to his judgment, this guy who turned into an Anbu should be one of his new teammates. If he was the captain of the team, it should be at least a jonin, but the one in front of him obviously lacked that level of strength. 

'Did one of my future teammates turned into Anbu and came to my house just to inform me of tomorrow's meeting or is it to test my strength?' He analyzed in his mind. 

He thought about it for a moment, and realized that this should be mostly a prank 'Even my clone wasn't noticed. At this level, he wants to test my strength? Didn't he go through my information beforehand?'

*Poof*

The person who had changed into an Anbu with [Transformation Jutsu] finally couldn't hold on under the pressure, and burst into smoke, lifting his jutsu. 

"It's you!"

Seeing the true face of this person, Asahi also released his [Shadow Clone] at the same time, saying, "Sarutobi Asuma, to be honest I didn't expect one of my teammates to be you."

"Tch! This is no fun, you saw through my disguise right away." Asuma said plainly. 

"Why did the village assigned me into your group, doesn't your group already have complete members?" Asahi asked. 

"Alas! He died during a mission." Asuma said sadly. 

"Oh so that's the reason." He nodded, then looked at Asuma and asked, "Then, is there anything else you need?" 

"Hey! We are both classmates, c'mon don't you be so cold!" Asuma leaned on the door with one hand and wrapped another hand around his shoulders, whispering, "Asahi, we have known each other for so long, if I have some things that I need you to help me with, will you help me in it?"

"What is it?" Asahi asked. 

"First say will you help me?" Asuma asked. 

"No! If there's nothing else, I'll continue my training." He said impatiently. After a day of acting in front of Tsunade and Orochimaru, he was really not in the mood to deal with Asuma's issues.

"Help me!" Asuma held on to Asahi's shirt, preventing his departure. 

"Tell me what you need first." Asahi took a deep breath, and said. 

"It's about another one of our teammates and she was also one of our classmates, called Yuhi Kurenai, you should still remember her." Asuma said while blushing. 

"Hmm? Yes, I remember her." Kurenai was also a character that was quite distinguished in the original work. And so he also paid attention to her when he was in academy. Now it looked like Kurenai was still on her path to become the wife of this guy in front of him. 

"Hehehe…" Asuma laughed in an embarrassed way, then said, "It's just that... me and Kurenai... we... there's... uh..." 

"..." Asahi rolled his eyes, and helplessly said, "Rest assured, I won't try anything with her." 

"You're such a good bro!" Hearing this, Asuma's eyes became bright.

After finally sending Asuma away, Asahi returned to his bedroom and continued with his training. Glancing at the clock, he murmured a curse, it took more than an hour to accompany Asuma till he finally relayed his love story, and it was really a waste of time.

Just like this, time rapidly passed, and in a blink of an eye it was already morning. 

Konoha had many training grounds. Asahi arrived at the eighth training ground on time at eight o'clock. Seeing that his teammates and the jonin leader had not arrived yet, he got bored and started training taijutsu against a wooden dummy. 

"Asahi, I didn't expect you to be our new teammate!" An unexpected voice made him stop training. 

Turning around, it turned out to be Kurenai. 

Asahi continued to hit the wooden dummy while talking, "Well, I also didn't expect to join your team." 

"I see. You are already chunin, and you can already lead a mission on your own. How come you got assigned to our team?" Kurenai asked a little puzzled. 

Talking about this issue, Asahi had already analyzed it last night. 

The Third Hokage arranged him to join in Asuma's team must be for two reasons. Either he wanted to use Asahi's medical-ninjutsu to add a layer of security to Asuma's life; or he wanted Asahi and Asuma to get to know each other better and use him to draw him even more to his side. 

But it actually doesn't matter for what reason he arranged him in this team, Asahi couldn't refuse this arrangement. 

And so since he had joined this team, every move of Asahi in the future would be exposed to Hiruzen's gaze. So what kind of attitude should he use to treat his future teammates and team leader in the future, it's also a question that needed to be considered.

Asahi during his academy time was very lonely and hardly interacted with other people. He became slightly more cheerful after he was assigned to Ueno's team. After that, he was in a constant acting-state, in front of Tsunade, in front of Orochimaru, in front of everyone basically. 

Asuma and Kurenai were both Asahi's former classmates. The impression that they have of him should still be that of the academy period. If the changes in him were too great, they would definitely get suspicious.

But Asahi's acting was mainly for the Third Hokage. As for Asuma and Kurenai, whatever they considered his attitude to be, he didn't care. 

Seeing that Asahi was training, Kurenai sighed, "Asahi, you really work hard. You start training so early in the morning, no wonder you got accepted by Tsunade-sama as a disciple, and even contributed in the battle against Sunagakure on the borders." 

"If you don't work hard, you will be surpassed by others. The price of being surpassed by others may be one's own life." Asahi said while training, he still considered that each of them should be minding their own business.

"Sigh, even though we are classmates from the same batch, I think that only Kakashi is your equal right now in our generation." Kurenai sighed. 

At this time, Asuma appeared running from the distance, carrying a big bag in his hand, while shouting, "Kurenai! I bought breakfast!" 

When Asuma walked in, Asahi frowned and asked, "Didn't you say to meet at eight in the morning, it's almost nine? Why is our team leader still not here yet?" 

"Wasn't it supposed to be at nine o'clock?" Kurenai murmured. 

Seeing Asahi's gazed on him, Asuma flinched a little, and quickly got away from him while saying. "Sorry, it's... I remembered it wrong!" 

"..." 

Asahi leaned silently on the wooden dummy. Although he saw through the [Transformation Jutsu] that Asuma used last night, he didn't expect to be played by this guy on such a trivial matter. 

Fortunately, Asuma still had a little conscience. If he had said that they would meet at five in the morning, he wouldn't even have had breakfast.
