  So this is a request: if you like this novel, please write a review. :D)

  Si was an important week for them, they decided to learn as much as they could. Both of them agreed to postpoheir holiday for this week.

  After stant practice of the Shadow e Jutsu, they were able to reduce the jutsu's cost to a maximum of 9 units of energy, though Kaida sometimes ma with 8 units of energy—although these occurrences were rare.

  Leaving that aside, the major ge due to their training was a sudden increase in their chakra reserves. They couldn't measure theirs as accurately as Hiruzen, but they could feel that they had somehow doubled their chakra reserves in one week.

  Whether it was due to increasing their spiritual energy like Hiruzen said, or always emptying their chakra reserves and filling them back to back using Shadow es, or the bination of both.

  Because of this, their learning speed doubled. Yomi was now able to make three Shadow es, and Kaida was able to make six Shadow es, with a feeling that very soon he would be able to create a seventh e.

  On Sunday, 11 brains were w on increasing their knowledge as much as possible. At night, they pyed shogi with four matches at the same time. They had reached the beginner level in shogi, having pyed close to 100 matches against each other i week. Kaida ying to increase his tactical thinking and ability to think several moves ahead.

  Oher hand, Yomi was just pying because she got to spend time with Kaida. She didn't have muterest in tactics, but sihe growth arent with this method, she decided to stick with it till the end—at least she got some aloime with Kaida.

  Sihey didn't know the exact time they had to report to the Hokage, as he had only said to e to his offionday, they decided to go to his office at 6 AM to inquire further.

  (On Monday…)

  Kaida and Yomi woke up and got ready. Ever sihey had learhe Shadow e Jutsu, their house had been very and anized. One of Kaida's es ed the room while the other made breakfast for them.

  Yomi was really happy that they got to learn this awesome jutsu. Now they could eat breakfast made by Kaida without him wasting time. Breakfast was the only meal of the day in which they did a nutrient bar and instead had an actual meal for the st week.

  After eating breakfast, they went toward the Hokage's office. Upon reag the office, Kaida went to the receptionist and said:

  "Good m, miss. Lord Hokage asked us to e to his offionday, though he hasn't provided a specific meeting time. Could you please inquire about the timing when we should e?"

  "Of course, little gentleman. Both of you sit there; I will ask Lord Hokage about this."

  She said this while ruffling Kaida's hair. Yomi made a pout when she saw this but kept her mouth shut.

  They both sat on the sofa, and after 10 mihe receptionist came to them and said:

  "Lord Hokage is free now and is asking both of you to go to his office."

  Iy, he was going to do some work, but when he heard that both of them were here, he remembered that he had indeed fotten to tell them the time. So, he postponed his work a little to meet them.

  "Lord Hokage," both Kaida and Yomi greeted Hiruzen while bowing.

  "So, how is your training going? Have you made any progress with the Shadow e Jutsu?"

  "Yes, Lord Hokage. We were able to reduce the cost of the Shadow e Jutsu to some extent."

  "Oh, very well. Make a Shadow e with the least amount of chakra you ."

  Both of them o each other and performed the hand sign for the Shadow e Jutsu.

  *Poof*

  Two es were formed hem, but Hiruzen was dumbfouhat they were able to reduce the cost this mu just one week, which would take most ninjas months of practice. And that wasn't even the most shog part—they had somehow doubled their chakra reserves. He asked both of them:

  "Tell me exactly what you guys were doing for the whole week."

  They could tell by Hiruzen's tohat he was serious for some reason.

  So they told him about their full schedule, and as he listened, uanding dawned on Hiruzen's face.

  They had not used one week as just one week; iy, due to using Shadow es, they were able to learn what a ninja would learn in 2-3 months.

  They somehow trained for 18 hours daily for the st week and used 4-8 Shadow es for learning. They had just somehow mao do the work of 3 months in 1 week.

  He remembered the teags of Hashirama Senju: "Talent is just w harder than w hard," and these two ninjas in front of him were proof of this.

  He smiled and said:

  "Very good, both of you. If you tio work this hard, I am sure both of your parents will be very proud of you in heaven.

  Now, the most important thing for which I called you is this."

  He took out two chakra papers and put them oable. Seeing this, Yomi suddenly said:

  "Lord Hokage, we have already checked our chakra nature. Mine is lightning, and Kaida's is fire. You don't have to waste that chakra paper," and then as a whisper, "It is costly."

  "Hahaha, no problem, my child. This much is nothing for you guys. As for your chakra nature, it is wonderful hat you have a lightning attribute. It is very rare and hard to tame, but this attribute make you strong if mastered properly. As for Kaida, there is no element as destructive as fire, so you too bee strong.

  But this chakra paper is special—you will see once you pass your chakra through it."

  Both of them nodded and passed their chakra through the papers.

  Kaida's paper was divided into three different parts: the rgest one burhe medium-sized o bisected into two, and the st ourned into dust.

  As for Yomi, her chakra paper was divided into two parts: the st one crumbled, and the sed one became wet.

  Hiruzen was very happy with the result. It wasn't every day that you got to see such a bination, especially in such talented children. He said:

  "Very good. The details you just got tell us about all of your chakra natures. Sih of you have such a great bination of chakra attributes, I will arraeacher for both of you to learn from. As you may know, ihird part of your academy training, you will learal jutsu."
