Chapter 13: Rasa on Air
Author note: Our poor Rasa is still on Air. Please don't forget him.
Rasa flew through the air for some time and finally hit the tree. Although the air in his lungs got knocked out, he was still surprisingly unharmed from the impromptu flying session. He once again marveled at the freakish physique possessed by the people of this world. But soon his attention shifted to the reason for his unexpected flight.
She was a tall woman, with fiery orange hair. she was now dusting off the sandy surprise from the little girl's face, while completely ignoring him, and the little green hair devil just stood there obediently, with a bored face. As he got closer he could hear what she was saying, which made him really concerned.
"Paku-Chan, how many times have I said, don't go running off with the first man you see. What if he is a domestic abuser; Like the one just now? if mother wasn't here he would have beaten up my poor baby. Mother will find you a respectable man, not some delinquent who will beat up little girls okay?...."
That's it! He now officially confirmed it. Suna is a den of nut cases. Hikari, Arashi, this little girl and now this Orange freak — all are just complete loonies. He let out a sigh and walked toward the mother and daughter pair.
He loudly cleared his throat as he approached, but a child's throat could produce only so much bass, but it still got their attention.
"Hello ma'am, it is also rude to throw a child and we were sparring. Most importantly she tried to kill me many times during the spar and you didn't intervene." He really didn't want to clarify anything, but he didn't want the label of abusing women before turning six that may hinder his path of becoming KazeKage in the future. Poor Jiraya couldn't become Hokage even in his fifties with a bad reputation — more importantly, he didn't want to end up a single dog like the toad sage.
"You misunderstood young man. Poor Paku-Chan was just nervous about you asking her out so promptly. Besides, a woman can show some temper and it's a man's duty to endure it. You see now. I was just educating you, you should thank me for the free lesson, instead of being so ungrateful. At this young age learn some humility first!."
She was now really chiding him which made him really amused, he let out a breath to calm himself for the hundredth time, and planned to turn around and leave — let this world be destroyed with his reputation. He really understood the pain of Obito.
As he was trying to leave she called him back again. "Wait young man don't be in a hurry, Paku-Chan also needs a sparring partner. If you are interested you can come here tomorrow. I'm now on a long break from missions so I can ensure both of your safety."
This made him pause, he considered the offer for a moment, ultimately he agreed to the offer. His heart can tolerate two more lunatics : "Okay I will be here every morning."he replied promptly.
She looked pleased with his reply. "Paku-chan, what are you waiting for? introduce yourself to your new friend!" she said to the green hair little girl while giving her a nudge.
The girl looked a little nervous at that moment. She came forward and said with a little bow "I'm Pakura, five years old please take care of me."
The name made him a little surprised — he knew her as a character in a story, a heroic woman who died a meaningless death, now just a little girl.
He smiled at her warmly and also bowed. "My name is Rasa. I am also five years old, please take care of me."

Mission Summary
Encountered Team Rendo's Squad near the Sand Camp. The intelligence was accurate about their patrol time and team strength. Two Chunin and Jonin Rendo were both killed without any injuries to the assigned team. While retreating with the body of the target, we encountered a team led by Storm Blade Arashi of the Sand. He was injured so I chose to confront the team. During the fight,Team Danzo had a clear advantage but, during the fight Arashi's student Hikari used a forbidden Jutsu. It is a Yin and wind Release Poison Summoned form a black Pot.
The Jutsu poisoned Hamuru Mitokado and Kahoru Utatane severely. Danzo Shimura was able to seal the poison with Five Element sealing Jutsu and retreat safely.Sand was able to recover the body of Rendo during the fight. The Jutsu had severe lethality if caught off guard but it looks like there were severe repercussions for the user.
