The Shadow…!!

Naruto: The New Fire Generation (Chapter 10)

Before the daimyō and Tentō Izuno leave the village, Koharu returns the card that Tentō gave him and ends up going to the shop to buy a pack of the collectable cards, but still doesn't get the one he wants.

Elsewhere, the Interrogation core interrogate the captured Tsurushi (Fire) and calls in Hoki Senju for assistance with the unwilling prisoner. Fear of the Hokage quickly causes Tsurushi to divulge all his secrets. Tsurushi says he knows about the seal on Koharu's hand and the organisation seeking the seals called "Hidoi".

On the Hokage's way to the Hokage Estate, Hoki notices Koharu. He speaks to Koharu, telling Koharu he has a lot of potential, so Koharu asks to be the Hokage's disciple. Hoki asks if Koharu can land a hit on him. Koharu says he'll train if that's what it takes to be Hoki's student.

Koharu asks Satoru to teach him cool tactics and moves. Satoru Sarutobi agree's and teaches it, but Koharu is unenthusiastic about his training. The next day, Koharu's friends notice his exhaustion, and Hanako assumes it has to do with training. Koharu continues training with Satoru, Hanako watching him from afar.

The day has come, After five days Koharu is ready to spar with the Hokage. Who despite trying to play it down, is excited about it, earning Hanako's teasing. The Hokage invites the village to watch, as it might turn out to be interesting.

Koharu and The Hokage stand face to face on the Academy Training Grounds as the Village watch them face off!
