"I know."
The Third Hokage lit his pipe and took a deep drag,
"That's why I've always advocated investigating the identity of the mysterious masked man while keeping an eye on the Uchiha. The only one who's always been willing to take risks is Danzo."
"Alright, enough about that. What exactly has Danzo done this time to cause such a commotion?"
Jiraiya was tired of hearing these things. He knew he couldn't change his teacher's mind, so he didn't bother to argue. He just wanted to quickly handle the Daimyo's affairs so he could leave the village, continue gathering information.
Mentioning this, the Third Hokage's previously good mood soured, and his old face became very grim. He lost the desire to smoke and put down his pipe.
"The Daimyo received intelligence from the unknown source, indicating that Danzo is plotting to assassinate him and support someone else. I suspect there is a mole among the high ranks because the information that was leaked is too detailed."
This sounds troublesome.
Jiraiya scratched his messy hair, looking pained: "So, not only do we have to calm the Daimyo's anger, but we also have to find the mole?"
"Yes."
The Third Hokage nodded: "Otherwise, I wouldn't have urgently called you back."
"What should I do?"
Not wanting to waste brain cells thinking, Jiraiya decided to follow whatever the Third Hokage told him to do. He had other things to worry about, like checking on Naruto.
"Find Tsunade and bring her back. The village needs her."
The Third Hokage gritted his teeth:
"The daimyo of various countries are preparing to attend a gathering at the Daimyo's office. This is undoubtedly putting pressure on the village, so we need Tsunade to handle this matter."
"That won't be easy."
Jiraiya smiled bitterly.
Since leaving the village, Tsunade had been wandering and gambling, losing miserably everywhere, with debt collectors on her tail. Moreover, Tsunade was unwilling to return to the village or deal with its affairs. That was the main issue; otherwise, given the speed at which news spreads, Tsunade would have come back already.
"Alright, I'll try my best. But I can't guarantee she'll come back. The past incidents hurt her deeply."
Stretching lazily, Jiraiya jumped onto the windowsill and turned to the Third Hokage: "Old man, you'd better have a backup plan. Convincing Tsunade to come back will be difficult."
"I'm off."
Leaving the Hokage's office, Jiraiya first went to look for Naruto. Unfortunately, Naruto was still in school, napping on his desk.
Seeing this, Jiraiya's itch to go have some fun grew.
"Should I find a place to release my restless and untamable nature?"
"This kid sure knows how to describe things."
Seeing that Naruto was still in class, Jiraiya decided to find some entertainment while he waited.
As night fell, Kazuki, having sent away his tagalong Izumi, left the Police Force. Passing by Ichiraku Ramen, Kazuki decided to go in.
"Teuchi-san, one large ramen with extra meat and veggies please."
"Long time no see," Teuchi smiled and joked, "Just so you know, the extra veggies will cost you."
Kazuki laughed, "If you dare to go to the Police Force to collect, add as much as you want."
"Hahaha..."
Teuchi laughed heartily and started making the ramen. Soon, the ramen was ready, and Kazuki began eating immediately, skipping the usual pre-meal ritual of clasping hands and saying, "Let's eat."
Seeing Kazuki eat, Teuchi shook his head, "Kazuki, that's disrespectful to the food."
Used to this, Kazuki raised an eyebrow:
"I think not wasting food and eating it all is the biggest respect. The rest doesn't matter."
"Alright, as long as you're happy."
Teuchi had no choice but to accept it.
"Uncle, I want a bowl of ramen, quick, I'm starving."
At that moment, an unexpected person rushed in.
"Ugh!!"
Seeing the hungry-looking blonde kid in front of him, Kazuki choked. He hadn't expected to run into Naruto while having ramen, although he knew Naruto loved this stuff.
It was the first time since he crossed over that he met Naruto.
"Naruto, sit down. What kind of ramen do you want today?"
Teuchi, familiar with Naruto, didn't reject him because of the fox demon rumors. Naruto always felt warmth at Ichiraku Ramen.
"Um~~~"
Naruto thought hard, "But I want to try everything."
Noticing Kazuki sitting nearby, Naruto happily said, "I'll have the same as this uncle."
"Ugh ugh!!!"
Kazuki choked again, and Teuchi was stunned for a few seconds before laughing out loud.
"Did I say something wrong?"
Scratching his head, Naruto didn't understand why his words made Teuchi laugh so much.
Kazuki: Listening to you makes me want to hit you!
If he could, Kazuki would love to press Naruto down and beat him up to make him understand the harshness of the world.
Women care about age, but men can't?
I'm obviously in my teens, but you made me feel a decade older with that "uncle."
After laughing, Teuchi wiped the tears from his eyes and reminded Naruto:
"Naruto, Kazuki is not an uncle. He's only fifteen."
"But..."
To Naruto, fifteen seemed much older. He was confused; the age difference seemed to warrant the term "uncle."
"Just don't call him uncle. Sit down, I'll make your ramen."
"Okay~~"
Naruto leaned weakly on the table, waiting for his ramen, unaware that the Anbu ninjas outside were getting anxious.
Kazuki was eating ramen, and Naruto happily called him "uncle."
Knowing that the Anbu were watching outside, Kazuki didn't bother to argue with Naruto. Otherwise, just for calling him "uncle," he'd have to teach him a lesson.
Moreover, this little blonde recently threw a beehive into a breakfast shop. If it were anyone else, they'd already be detained by the Police Force.
"Great, time to eat!!!"
Naruto clasped his hands and shouted before digging in. Teuchi proudly looked at Kazuki, as if to say: look at Naruto, and then look at you.
"Give me a bowl too."
Smelling of alcohol and looking unsteady, Jiraiya sat next to Naruto, only to be disliked by Naruto:
"White-haired uncle, can you sit farther away?"
Great, another "uncle."
This place is a trouble magnet.
After eating his fill, Kazuki prepared to leave.
"...."
Feeling a bit guilty for being late due to his carefree attitude, Jiraiya was rendered speechless by Naruto's dislike.
Jiraiya had no choice but to move closer to Kazuki, smiling:
"Hello, little Uchiha. Today, you really made me look foolish."
If someone else called him "little Uchiha," it would be mocking and sarcastic.
But from Jiraiya, it was just a term.
"Just doing my duty."
Kazuki said calmly, "If you're not satisfied, I can help spread the word for free."
