Izu felt anger rise up within him as Seth talked back to him and he clenched his fists. This shinobi seemed to take his words as mere attacks when he was trying to tell him that his attitude would get him killed in battle, but that was how Konoha shinobi tended to act at times. He had endured insane amounts of physical training and bone-breaking sessions with his sensei and team. Through some miracle he kept himself from losing it and getting aggressive, but he was ready to take his anger at Seth to the training field and kick his butt. It seemed that Akio had other plans when he told them that Seth would be staying behind for a little bit longer so that the Jonin could have some words with him.

"We can settle our differences later, see you at the training field" he said to Seth and then followed the others out of the Hokage's office. It looked like Arashi Uchiha had other business to do, Izu didn't mind that, but he was curious to know what the genin's exact reasons for skipping training.

"Since we don't have too long to prepare we must train as hard as possible and try to strengthen our techniques" he said to the others as they started to make their way back to the training field. The thought of training made his mind bring back memories of his early days as a genin and the brutal training he had to go through. There were reasons why Kirigakure had gotten the infamous nickname The Village Hidden in The Bloody Mist, and Izu was proof of it.
