"But enough about me, why don't you tell me about your travels. I would like to hear all about."
"Where should I begin?" Aiko said as he scratched his head. "Well, I've seen Great Lakes, luxurious homes, magnificent monuments, great festivals, happy families, and much more." Aiko said with an uplifted tone. "But, I have also seen wastelands, children without homes, slaughtered villages, abandoned babies, ghost towns, and more." Aiko said with a shift of his tone.
Aikos travels was truly one of a kind, he was sure that rare few got to see what he saw as a chunnin due to his training under the raikage himself, privately moving up in rank. "I managed to bring peace to towns by stopping raids, defending the weak, supplying money. All which you taught me sensei. I thank you for putting me on the right path." Aiko said with a nod and smile. Fixing himself some hot tea, he continued. "Outside the village walls is a hell of a place. I wouldn't wish that on no man," Aiko said shaking his head. "Or child."
"I've had to kill, protect, and survive. Sensei, It's as if my body has become in tune with the struggles around me. And I.... Have to help. For peace, not only for me, but for the person as well." Aiko said before taking a sip of his steaming tea. Removing his wooden katana, he placed it on the table. "But sensei, out of all my good, I dislike the fact that I ever had to kill. So, killing is a last resort for me." Aiko said. Using a wooden katana as a primary weapon, one would easily understand that the person didn't have an intent to kill, or was bad with a real blade. Option two was never the case, Living outside the the village, Aiko had slaughter many. Not only for village missions, but for his own protection using a steel blade he put in a scroll.
