New day with new determination!
Raizen stood quietly in the clearing, surrounded by shattered rocks and dented trees. Sweat rolled down his temple. His fists were bleeding, but his heart was calm.
A familiar sound echoed in his mind.

Raizen took a breath and smiled.
Raizen: "Time to train the next level."
Might Fist walked up beside him, wrapped in fresh bandages and still wearing his all green training gear.
Might Fist: "So, what weird moves are we developing this time?"
Raizen: "Kicking so hard that it becomes a blade. Piercing with your fingers. Moving like paper in the wind."
Mighty Fist: "Sounds fun."
They began their new training at once.
Rankyaku required intense leg strength and perfect control. Their kicks had to slice wind itself. Shigan demanded brutal finger power like driving spears through stone. Kami-e forced their muscles to become so relaxed, they could bend with even the smallest force.
They trained for days, nonstop.
One afternoon, as they practiced in the open forest, a powerful chakra washed over them. Both paused, glancing toward the trees.
A tall figure approached calm, smiling, and radiant like sunlight.
Senju Hashirama
On his shoulder was a small girl with blonde hair in twin tails. She clutched his hair and looked around curiously.
Hashirama: "So you are the famous two boys everyone is talking about."
They bowed instantly.
Raizen: "Lord First."
Might Fist: "An honor."
Hashirama laughed softly, looking around at the shattered ground and bent trees.
Hashirama: "You two train harder than most of the ANBU. That's Taijutsu? No chakra?"
Raizen: "No chakra. Just hard work. And good ideas."
Hashirama walked over to a cracked tree trunk and ran a hand over the splinters.
Hashirama: "I can feel the strength in every impact. You've forged something real."
The little girl beside him stepped forward. Her eyes were wide, locked on Raizen's fists. Her cheeks puffed in determination.
Tsunade: "How did you do that ground punch? The one that made the rocks fly?"
Raizen: "It's called Armament Haki. Not ninjutsu."
Tsunade: "Can you teach me?"
Raizen: "You're too young. And it's painful."
Tsunade: "I don't know, I want to learn"
She stomped her feet. Hashirama smiled.
Hashirama: "Looks like she's found a new obsession. Raizen, teach her if you can slowly. She's more stubborn than I am."
Raizen knelt and looked Tsunade in the eye.
Raizen: "If you want strength, you'll need patience. And pain. But I'll teach you."
Tsunade: "Good. I'll punch better than you someday."
Might Fist: "Careful, Raizen. She might actually do it."
Hashirama: "She will. And when she does, I hope you two are still standing."
Raizen stood tall, eyes burning with quiet pride.
And his journey was only beginning.
