Ieyasu was looking at the village of Konoha from the Hokage Rock, the wind that blew harshly atop the cliff-side struck at Ieyasu. The tousled ends of his long, brown hair slightly moved as if to indicate of these bitter breezes. The young Akimichi didn't look too troubled from it however, he just kept observing like a gargoyle served its duty overlooking and protecting its castle. His expression was lackadaisical, although his thoughts swarmed with things he had yet to learn of.

There was an eagerness to it all, he wanted to get into the Anbu so that he could further his investigations on Ryogin and Keldran. He still felt as if he wasn't ready for it yet, but Ieyasu truly had no choice and had to simply take the shot while he still had it. Stratagems unfolded in his mind, even though he had no idea as to who he was even fighting inside the village. Ways to stop them... ways to crush them and avenge the wrongdoing and woe put onto his very best friend.

It led him nowhere however, and he came to acknowledge knowing the coming hour was soon upon him that he had intended to meet up with Shinra. Ieyasu got up from where he was sitting, the bust of the second and current hokage: Ikeru Senju. He began to zip up his jacket, looking down to see a crumb on his shirt from a sandwich he had been eating earlier. He swept it off of him before zipping the rest of the jacket up. From there, Ieyasu began his journey to the training grounds by walking down the vertical face of the Hokage Rock before taking a calm and mellow hike through the village's surrounding forest.

Some time later after taking a few detours here and there, he arrived at the training grounds. He approached from the split in the road, Shinra would have seen him coming instantly. In his hand he was holding a small scroll that he tossed over to Shinra.

"You can find the technique I was talking about near the beginning," Ieyasu let in a sharp breath, taking a drag from the cigarette he currently had in his mouth, "Once you're familiar with it, just tell me and we can begin training on it."

Ieyasu walked closer to Shinra, he still calmed yet strangely relaxed unlike how he usually was tense about most things. He took the cigarette from his mouth and into his hand while beginning to casually ask about how Shin had been doing.

"So-uh, how've things been going on your end?"
