While Seto and Mari disappeared from their position and hid in the forest, Daichi only jumped back several feet and gained some distance from his opponent. He looked at the new quest that appeared in front of him.

Daichi quickly read the contents of the quest and came to an understanding. 'So to pass I have two options. Either I go solo and get the bells on my own or I work with my team. But if I chose to play solo then the probability of becoming a Genin is very low… But whatever the case, I need to get the bells to pass this test… Hmm… How should I proceed?'
Daichi looked at the man standing nonchalantly in the middle of the field.
'He's someone who cares about teamwork more than anything. If I ignore the other two, then even if I get the bells, it won't matter… It seems the choice is obvious. I have to work with them… But I doubt they feel the same… I need to show them that cooperation is the only way we're gonna make it past this test.'
"You're an odd one aren't you?" Kakashi's voice took Daichi out of his thoughts.
"What makes you say that?"
"Your teammates have hidden. But you… You're just standing there not even bothering to hide… Why?"
Daichi smirked, hearing that question. "You're a Jonin. And a pretty good one from what I hear. I doubt ordinary Genin would be capable of escaping your senses. They're still within your range, aren't they? I can tell because they're within mine. If I know where they are, then I'm pretty sure you do too. And it's best to make the first move and gain Intel rather than waste time."
Kakashi's one visible eye narrowed as he looked at the child in front of him. He still remembered how the kid took down three Hidden waterfall ninjas without the slightest difficulty. 'I need to keep my eye on him. He's far ahead of the other two. And I have no doubt he's only improved these last few years. Everything about him tells me he'll fight me alone and ignore the other two.'
Mari and Seto, who were hiding and listening, were surprised. Their eyes widened when they heard that their location was compromised. But they decided not to move in case Daichi was wrong.
Daichi wanted more info on his enemy and used 'Observe' skill on Kakashi.
[?] [Kakashi Hatake]
?
'Damn. Nothing? I guess his level is higher than 95… I can't waste anymore time. But I can't go all out. I'll use 1/4th of my strength.'
Daichi's body slightly tensed and the next second he rushed at his foe. Daichi reached Kakashi in a second and sent a fast, precise punch aimed directly at his chest.
Kakashi blocked the punch and then raised the other hand to block the kick aimed at the side of his head. He saw Daichi going for the bells tied on his waist and he quickly gripped Daichi's leg and flung him away.
The Jonin quickly analyzed his opponent. 'He's fast and he had some serious power behind that punch and kick. His strength is amazing for someone his age. This kid's talent is incredible.'
Daichi twisted around in mid air and landed safely on the ground. "I knew it wasn't going to be that easy." Daichi got into a Taijutsu stance and prepared himself for round two.
Kakashi also got ready. 'So it seems he's decided to fight me on his own after all. Let's see how this goes.'
"Since you're so eager, let's begin. First lesson. Taijutsu." The silver haired Jonin said in a serious tone.
Daichi made a hand seal and created three shadow clones. With a plan in mind the real Daichi rushed at Kakashi and the second round of battle began.
Kakashi could sense that Daichi infused his limbs with chakra. 'This is going to be tricky.'
He blocked the punches and kicks and redirected them. At that moment a clone would attack him from his blind spot and another would try to try to take the bells. Whenever Kakashi tried to land a solid hit on the clone the real Daichi interfered and blocked his attack.
The pace of the Taijutsu battle was intense. Daichi used the newly acquired skill Analyze to identify Kakashi's fighting style and attack pattern. But it was a slow process since the skill was only level one. But it wasn't completely without merit.
Kakashi noticed that Daichi was becoming more and more familiar with his fighting style the more the battle went on. 'His battle insights are sharp. He's able to read and somehow predict how I'm going to block his next attack and move accordingly. It's not perfect but such insight is truly incredible.'
But Kakashi was Jonin for a reason. Even with Daichi's abilities and clones helping him, not a single solid hit landed on the man. His senses and skills were top notch.
Kakashi blocked a kick coming at his left side and grabbed onto the leg of the attacking clone. He added a bit more force to his grip and the clone dispelled. The next second Kakashi's senses alerted him to several shuriken coming his way and he easily dodged them.
"Your Taijutsu is certainly impressive." The man complimented his opponent.
He blocked another punch and jumped over a leg sweep that came from behind. At that moment another shadow clone burst out of the ground. It's hand going for the two bells. Kakashi grabbed onto the fist he was blocking and flung himself out of the way. He sent a quick jab that dispelled the clone and vanished from the spot using body flicker jutsu.
Daichi and the remaining clone turned their heads to look at the Jonin standing a few meters away. "You're just as strong as I heard. Looks like this test is going to be a lot harder than I thought."
The clone Daichi went through several seals and tried genjutsu on Kakashi. He felt his chakra connect with Kakashi's and then the next second Kakashi's one eye glazed over as if he was caught. At that moment the real Daichi threw several shuriken at the man. It had ninja wire attached to them and the shuriken curved around Kakashi's body. Daichi pulled the wire and trapped the man in tight ninja wire.
'Fire style: Dragon fire Jutsu.'
A hot stream of flame rushed from Daichi's mouth and engulfed the Jonin. The next moment Daichi sensed movement beneath his feet. He let go of the jutsu and he along with the clone jumped away but an unexpected attack came from above a second later.
A powerful punch that turned Daichi's clone into smoke.
The real Daichi landed and turned around to look at the man. "You knew that I knew you wouldn't be defeated like that. So you tricked me into thinking the attack was coming from below to draw my attention away from any movements above."
Kakashi Hatake nodded. "You're quick on the uptake. And you should've known. Genjutsu and tactics of that level won't work on a Jonin. Especially on someone like me."
Daichi gritted his teeth and sent chakra throughout his body. Supercharging his muscles he got ready.
The next second he was in front of Kakashi and sent a fast high kick aimed for his neck. Kakashi barely had time to lean back and dodge but a moment later a hand burst out of the ground nearing the two bells tied on his waist. The clone Daichi that came from below got his hands on the two bells and the next second the Jonin above him vanished and was replaced with a wooden log.
Daichi opened his palms and saw two crumpled leaves. 'Substitution jutsu. His reaction time is incredible.'
At that moment a smoke bomb went off near Daichi and his clone, blinding them. Daichi sensed a presence coming near him but before he could react he got the memories of the clone and the next second he felt his arm being grabbed and twisted behind him.
"Gha!"
A leg tripped him and Daichi fell forward to the ground with his right arm trapped behind him and a leg placed on his neck pinning him to the ground.
The smoke cleared and everyone could see Kakashi had Daichi immobilized and pinned down.
Kakashi looked at the struggling boy beneath him. "You certainly are a cut above the rest. And most definitely much better than your teammates. I've had to get serious for a second there. Your Ninjutsu, Taijutsu and Genjutsu skills are certainly impressive. On par with a Chunin no doubt. And you only just graduated from the academy. You truly are a genius."
He then increased the pressure on Daichi's arm. "You are certainly talented. It's true. But tell me Daichi? Do you have the resolve to become a ninja?"
Daichi struggled and turned his head to look at the man. "You have no idea… of the strength of my resolve!"
"Then show me. Show me you have what it takes…"
Daichi gritted his teeth and tried to pry his right arm away from the Jonin but it was futile. Kakashi had a strong tight grip on his arm.
"Well… What now? I thought you were going to show me… These types of situations happen all the time. In impossible situations you'll have to make sacrifices. And without a strong heart and the resolve to do what needs to be done, you won't survive. Do you want me to tell you how to escape?"
Daichi was getting angry at the situation. 'I can't believe I let myself get caught like this. There is only one way to get free.'
"The only way you'll get free is if-" Before Kakashi could finish, Daichi made his move.
"RHAA…" Daichi increased his chakra flow throughout his body and put pressure on his right shoulder. He forcibly twisted his body around and the sound of bone breaking was heard throughout the clearing.
Kakashi's eye widened in disbelief and he failed to protect himself against the powerful fast kick that Daichi sent his way. It struck his midsection and sent him flying to the other side.
Kakashi back flipped in the air and landed on the ground and looked at Daichi in amazement. 'He broke it. He broke his own arm without hesitation to escape… A normal shinobi with a couple years of experience would be willing to break or even cut their limbs off if it means escaping death. But a fresh out of the academy Genin. I didn't see that coming. Unbelievable.'
Daichi looked at the negative status screen and ignored the pain flaring in his shoulder. Gritting his teeth he made a few seals and brought his palm to his broken shoulder. The calm healing green chakra soothed the pain Daichi felt and it started mending the broken bones.
Kakashi saw Daichi making a few one handed seals and green chakra lighting up the left palm and bringing it to his injured shoulder. 'He can use medical ninjutsu with one arm?'
The Jonin ninja watched in amazement as Daichi healed his arm in less than half a minute. He looked into Daichi's eyes and was impressed. 'His will and resolve is strong. He's a rare gem indeed.'
Daichi looked at the man with a serious face. He took several deep breaths and calmed down. A few seconds later a small smile appeared on his face which confused Kakashi.
"Guess now I'll have to go with Plan A." With those words Daichi vanished from his spot.
—-
Seto and Mari were watching the battle with amazement. They saw how Daichi rushed at their teacher and started attacking him without hesitation.
Seto clenched his fists as he saw the Taijutsu fight between his teammate and sensei. 'I didn't think that kid would be so strong… Damn it. He's even stronger than me.'
Mari looked at the Jonin who was blocking all attacks Daichi sent with ease and remembered what her brother told her. 'They say he's one of the best Jonin in our Village. And rumor has it that no one has passed his Genin test.'
She clenched her fist in anger. 'I have to pass. Whatever the case.'
Both of them watched the battle between their teammate and sensei. They were surprised at Daichi's speed and strength. They could barely follow his movements. Both of them were shocked when they saw Kakashi getting caught in a fire jutsu.
'No way. Did that kid just kill our new Jonin?'
The shock turned into surprise when they saw Kakashi come out unscathed. They saw the battle playout and looked on as the man pinned Daichi down and talked to him.
"You certainly are a cut above the rest. And most definitely much better than your teammates. I've had to get serious for a second there. Your Ninjutsu, Taijutsu and Genjutsu skills are certainly impressive. On par with a Chunin no doubt. And you only just graduated from the academy. You truly are a genius."
Seto and Mari gritted their teeth in anger when they heard those words. They didn't think someone a year below them could be so much stronger and better than them. It was a harsh blow to their pride.
Both of them watched on and were amazed that Daichi would break his own arm to get free and use medical ninjutsu to heal himself.
'So he can use medical ninjutsu too? Where did this kid come from?'
The next second Daichi vanished from their view.
