After their trip, Haru was standing in the dojo inside Tsunade's house.

Even though Tsunade had a lot of debt, the inheritance from her family was very huge. She was the granddaughter of the first Hokage and she had quite a lot of land in Konohagakure. She was also the number one doctor in this world so without doubt, she was one of the richest characters in this world, even if she had a lot of debts.

Gintoki was also standing lazily with his usual wooden sword, staring at Haru who stood in front of him.

"Alright, we will start our spar."

Gintoki went to his luggage and threw something toward Haru.

Haru caught the thing which was thrown by Gintoki and saw that it was a wooden sword with a "Lake Toya" words inscribed on the handle.

"I'll give you this," Gintoki said. He had promised to teach Haru after all and this wooden sword was his gift to Haru.

Haru looked curiously at "Lake Toya" sword in his hand since this sword was very legendary in Gintoki's world. He remembered that this sword was originally created from a ten-thousand-year-old tree from another planet that could cut through almost anything.

If the legend was true then it was all good, but Haru felt that the wooden sword in his hand was only a normal wooden sword that was bought from the souvenir shop by Gintoki during his school trip in the past.

Haru tried to swing this sword several times until he nodded. He could feel a perfect weight from this sword and it was very tough, even though it was bought from the souvenir shop.

"Alright, I'm ready."

Gintoki nodded and said, "Good, you can start."

Haru didn't say nonsense again and dashed toward Gintoki, raising his sword high then swung it downward toward Gintoki.

Haru was very confident with his physical prowess since he had trained his body since he was a child so he could woe girls better.

Looking at Haru's attack, Gintoki only raised his brow slightly then smashed Haru's sword!

*Baam!!!*

---

Kuroneko, who was on the side of the dojo, didn't expect that their battle would be this intense.

*Baam!* *Baam!* *Baam!*

"Is this really a sword fight?"

Kuroneko rubbed her chin and thought this fight was similar to a brawler rather than a sword fight.

Tsunade and Yajima didn't say anything and looked at their battle. Neither of them had that much knowledge about the sword but they knew that the level of swordsmanship of both of them was quite newbie since both of them used their fists and feet on their spar.

Anbus, who had been sent by Hokage, looked at the spar between Haru and Gintoki. They looked at their battle for a while and thought that they should report this battle to Hokage later.

---

After distancing himself, Gintoki looked at Haru with a smile and said, "You're not bad, did you really practice only for two months?"

Haru didn't practice his sword that much, but he had trained really hard in the past after he had been invited to Group Chat.

Haru didn't answer Gintoki's question and kept pressing him, however, he could tell that Gintoki wasn't serious.

"HAAAA!!!!"

Haru smashed his wooden sword at Gintoki's head, but Gintoki moved swiftly to the side, then did a counter-attack.

Haru wanted to dodge, but it was too late!

"Do!"

(Do is a scream that is used on kendo when the swordman hits the stomach of the opponent).

Gintoki swung his sword on Haru's stomach

"Ugh..."

Haru was thrown away and held his stomach in pain.

"Haru!!" 2x

Shizune and Kuroneko were worried when he saw he was thrown away.

"Stop, don't help him," Tsunade said.

"Tsunade-Sama!!" Shizune thought that Tsunade was very cruel.

"Don't stop him, let's continue his training, he has his own pride, don't make him stop with these small things," Tsunade said.

Yajima also nodded and said, "He wants to get stronger, so don't pamper him."

"How is it?" Gintoki asked, wondering whether Haru would stop.

Haru didn't answer Gintoki's question and stood up once again. He wasn't going to give up so easily.

"Interesting, then let's continue!" Gintoki didn't hesitate and dashed in front of Haru, swinging his sword brutally.

Haru was in a defensive state and could only block Gintoki's attack, but his eyes were so focussed, searching for an opening on Gintoki's movement.

When Gintoki raised his hand hight, Haru didn't hesitate and slammed his sword at Gintoki's wrist!

"Kote!"

(A scream when a swordman hits the wrist or hand).

However, Gintoki didn't stop and slammed his sword on Haru's head.

*Baam!*

"This isn't the end! Let's continue!" Gintoki said.

Haru was annoyed that his head was being hit and he screamed, going for revenge against him!

Haru was laying down on the floor while looking at the starry sky. He felt very tired and there was no way the beautiful scenery could heal him. However, he had to admit that this world was quite good since it didn't have pollution.

Then Haru stared at the moon, wondering whether he could see someone there.

Haru was very tired after that spar, however, he had gotten a lot of things from this spar. He knew that in the future, he wouldn't use a sword since using magic was more convenient, but if there was a chance, he would probably use a knife since he was an apprentice chef rather than a sword in the future.

When Haru was thinking about his weakness, he heard the footsteps of someone.

"Haru, are you alright?" Kuroneko asked.

"I'm fine."

Haru changed his position and sat on cross-legged, though, he wanted to sleep at this moment since he was very tired.

Kuroneko sat beside Haru and asked, "Don't you feel nervous?" She would be lying if she didn't feel nervous since it was her first time to be in another world and she would also need to fight against Orochimaru's ninjas.

Haru looked at Kuroneko and said, "Of course, I am nervous."

"Really?"

Kuroneko felt a bit of relief since she thought that she would be the only one who was nervous in this quest. However, she was glad to talk with him since she felt quite better at that moment.

Haru laid on the corridor near the dojo again, staring at the night sky and said, "Yes, even though I have learned magic, I don't have that much experience with it yet. Our first quest is in the world of ninjas, you should know how ninjas are going to fight, right?" In his opinion, a ninja was dangerous being since no one knew when they were going to attack since they were hiding in the dark.

"The ninja in Naruto is different." Kuroneko smiled and said, "You should know how the main character in this world is screaming all the time when he's fighting."

Haru smiled and chuckled. "Now that you mention it, that's true." He looked at Kuroneko and said, "I just hope that this quest will be solved without problem."

"Yes." Kuroneko smiled sweetly at Haru.

Haru thought that Kuroneko was quite cute, but then he quickly shook his head then thought that he might have a way to make both of them save no matter what.

"We should stay together since I have a trick or two to help us stay alive no matter what."

"Really?"

Haru nodded and explained.

"My light magic is very versatile. It can be used for support and it'll help us to finish this quest safely."

It was their first quest, rather than trying to become the main character, it was better to think how to stay alive until the end.

"Good, I will believe in you." Kuroneko wasn't sure, but she felt reassured by his words. She wondered whether it was the harem protagonist's power that made him capable of making anyone calm and secure beside him no matter what.

Both of them continued to talk to each other while looking at the stars. It was a lot of fun until she asked him this question so abruptly.

"Have you started with your little sister?" Kuroneko asked.

"I am not!!!"

Haru let out a sigh and felt tired for some reason.
