章 80: Chapter 80:- New Mission
Danzo was in his root headquarters. Having nothing much to do these days, Danzo was sitting on a couch and was staring at the TV.
"Lord Danzo, I am here to report something important." It was one of Konoha's Shinobi, but he was hiding his identity with a mask.
"What is it?" Danzo said without looking at the man who kneeled behind him.
"Today, Kushina and her son brought two Uzumaki clan members with them to the village. Lord 3rd has given the Konoha's citizenship."
Hmph....!!
"You're soft as ever, Hiruzen. You gave them citizenship without even proper inspection." Danzo felt at least he should have used someone from the Yamanaka clan to go through their memories before letting them live in this village.
"Also, one of the older Uzumaki members appeared to be very weak. Her life force was drained. And now she is admitted to Konoha's hospital. The other one is young. She appears to be as old as Naruto."
"Should I monitor them?" Danzo shook his head.
"There is no need for that."
Danzo wanted to keep a low profile right now as he knew that Hiruzen was planning his retirement after the upcoming Chunin exam. If nothing went wrong or out of his calculation, then there was a very high chance that he would be elected to be the next Hokage. Danzo was waiting for this moment to come.
This is why he hasn't taken any action till now. 'Once I become the Hokage, I will bring the whole Village under my control.' Danzo thought to himself.

Scene Change____
The Next morning______
"Naruto, have you seen Ino these days?" Sakura asked in a concerned tone. Despite how they argued and fought against each other, deep down, both of them cared a lot about each other.
These days, Sakura hasn't seen Ino. Yesterday, even when she visited Ino's shop, the shop was closed.
"Unfortunately, I have been busy with training and completing our missions together. I haven't seen her anywhere in the village since we graduated." Naruto was leaning against a tree.
"Don't worry, Sakura. I have been Ino the day before yesterday." Hanabi looked at Sakura.
"Ino said that their squad was going to conduct special training outside of the village with Asuma-sensei." Hearing this, Sakura nodded. She was kind of relieved.
"You really care about Ino, don't you?" Hanabi asked.
"Not really. I was just curious." Seeing Sakura pretending not to care, Hanabi chuckled. She stopped seeing Kakashi-sensei approaching them.
"Kakashi-sensei, what mission did we receive this time?" Naruto asked. He liked the pace at which his team was finishing missions. He wanted to keep this pace and complete as many missions together as possible before the Chunin exam started.
"You can read it yourself." Naruto took the paper from Kakashi's hand and began to read. Others also curiously looked at the paper and silently read.

Scene Change_____
"For how long are you going to be away?" Yuna asked Naruto. Currently, she is the only one at home.
Naruto was packing his stuff in the living room.
In just a few days, her condition has improved a lot. Her face was no longer pale. At the same time, she now looked slightly younger than a bit. Her hair was also starting to regain its original Red color.
Yuna was wearing a red Kimono. Although Naruto would never say it out loud, she had a really erotic body. Naruto did not know if she was intentionally doing this or not, but the kimono was very tightly hugging her body. Even the edges of her era were visible.
Because of this, Naruto tried his best not to look at her as his eyes would just stare at the busty figure.
"3 days at most." If the Mission goes beyond three days, then Naruto will die.
'I must find a way to eliminate the need to have sex every three days. If I have to do longer missions in the future, I won't always have my mother by my side.'
Because of this limitation, Naruto has been slowly learning Fuinjutsu and the Flying Thunder God Jutsu that his father and the Second Hokage used for the last six months. Once his Fuinjutsu reaches a certain level, he will be able to use Flying Thunder God Jutsu.
After learning this Jutsu, even if Naruto has to stay away from the Village for months, he can secretly return to the village every three days and have sex with Kushina.
"All right, Aunty, I am heading out." Naruto put everything in his storage scroll. After wearing his sandals, he disappeared from Yuna's view.
After Naruto left, Yuna returned to the living room.
After sitting down, Yuna couldn't help but think of the Uzumaki clan. She became sad every time she thought about her clan.
'If our clan had a leader like Hanzo of the Salamander, then no one would have dared to attack our village.'
After all, Hanzo made the Hidden Rain village this powerful. All the other villages had to recognize Hanzo and the Hidden Rain Village for their strength.
'But there is hope for the Uzumaki clan.'
'If Naruto and Karin get married, then there is hope for the Uzumaki clan's revival.' Although not many Uzumaki clan members managed to escape with their lives before the village was destroyed and everyone in the village was massacred, there still should be a few hundred Uzumaki clan members scattered around the whole world.
'If Naruto can bring all of them back to Konoha, then there is hope...!!'

Scene Change_____
As Naruto approached the Village Gato, he noticed Kakashi-sensei was standing with three other people. At the side of the entrance, there was a big wooden carriage. The length of the wooden carriage appeared to be 5 or 6 meters long.
There were 4 horses tied to the carriage. There were also two more horses standing next to two other persons.
Kakashi was talking to them.
As Naruto approached, everyone noticed him.
"Mr. Taro, this is one of my students. His name is Naruto Uzumaki."
Meanwhile, Naruto looked at the man named Mr. Taro.
Mr. Taro appeared to be in his 40s. He had short hair that was a mix of white and black. Naruto could tell at a glance that Mr. Taro was balding. Mr. Taro stood at a height of 5 feet 9 inches. He had skinny arms and legs but a big stomach. His face was slightly chubby. Other than the little patches of beard growing on his chin, he kept his face cleanly shaved.
Mr. Taro's skin was slightly tanned, mainly from the sunlight. He had a brown pupil and a big, sharp nose. He was wearing an expensive white Kimono with wooden sandals.
"I certainly wasn't expecting to see the Son of Lord 4th." Taro shook hands with Naruto. He had a big smile on his face seeing Naruto.
As a cautious merchant, Taro always pays attention to the rumors. Of course, he has heard lots of things about the son of the 4th Hokage.
"It's an honor to have someone like you escort us to Tanzaku Town." Taro continued while holding Naruto's hand.
"We will try our best try to make sure that you and your subordinates and your goods reach the Tanzaku Town safely." Naruto felt that saying this would be the most appropriate thing to do.
Taro nodded his head. He then let go of Naruto's hand and then quickly introduced his subordinates to Naruto.
"This is my assistant Aya." Naruto could tell that Aya was a Shionbi.
Aya was lady in her 30s. She had long blond hair. Aya carried a sword in her hand. Naruto could also see that she had worn light armor beneath her ordinary clothes.
"As you can see, Aya is a Shinobi, but she isn't affiliated with any village. I have raised rouge Shinobi to train Aya from a young age." Taro believed that hiding such information would make Kakashi and others suspicious of him.
"And this is my right-hand man and also my second Assistant, Ken." Ken was an ordinary-looking young man in his 20s. He had long black hair that he had tied into a ponytail. As the outfit was a grey color Kimono.
Shortly after that, Sakura, Hanabi, and Sarada arrived. Once the introduction part was over, it was time to start the village.
Mr. Taro sat inside the carriage. He was going to drive the carriage.
Ken and Aya had their own horses.
After sitting on the back of the horses, they controlled the speed of the horses to match the carriage speed. Ken was on the right side, while Aya was on the left side.
As for team 7, Kakashi told Naruto to stay at the back with Sarada and Hanabi on his both sides. As for Sakura, she was going to walk along with Kakashi.
"Hanabi, every few minutes, use your Byakugan to scan the surroundings. We don't want to be ambushed by any rogue Shinobi." There was a lot of Rogue Shinobi in the land of fire and the other four lands.
Being a rogue Shinobi provides more freedom and a chance to earn more money while taking the same risk as they did when they were the Shinobi of their villages. This is why there is always a new Rogue Shinobi in the Land of Fire since the Land of Fire is more developed and has more villages on it compared to other lands.
