It has been five days since Naruto returned from the border patrol . They have submitted the reports about the iwagakure movement in the northern borders .
Naruto completed several D rank and a C rank mission for recovering an artificat from a bandit group with team seven in this five days . The border patrol mission was given 'A' rank mission category and a huge payment for them . After all they slaughtered a invading troops of other ninja village in their boundary or to be more accurate Naruto slaughtered them .
So the border mission became another A rank mission for Naruto . Now Naruto is free to take any mission as a chunin aside from his team seven mission . Even he can reject the mission with them .
For now Naruto is coming back after finishing a 'B' rank mission with Hayama and tekuno . They tracked a local bandits who are looting the travellers for a long time and were not caught by anyone . Naruto's team tracked them down and butchered them . They disguised as the rich travellers to attract their attention . It was an easy mission for them .
After giving reports in hokage tower they are about to leave to their home . He encountered remaining team seven . Kakashi is coming with sasuke and sakura after completing a 'D' rank mission .
" Naruto you came back after completing your mission ," kakashi said to Naruto but Hayama answered his question . He is happy that he is progressing quickly .
" Kakashi senpai , it's nice to meet you . I hope you wouldn't mind to lend me your teammate if I need him for some more mission ," Hayama said to kakashi . He knows him as he is very famous . He never had a opportunity to work with him .
" You are Hayama shirakumo . I heard about your recent mission . Iwa still didn't know about your deeds ," kakashi said to them . He heard some news about recent Naruto's 'C' rank mission which turned into 'A' rank mission .
" It was an easy mission at first but you know sometimes things can turn ugly but Naruto handled it like pro . Not even their bodies remained this time around ," Tekuno said to kakashi . He loves to tell about their team deeds to others konoha ninjas .
" What do you mean Naruto handled it like a pro ," Sakura asked them . She couldn't understand what they are talking but they are talking about a mission . They didn't discussed any information regarding the mission actual details in front of them . Sasuke can feel that Naruto is getting better day by day after leaving academy .
" You shouldn't question a jonin when they are talking even if it's related to your teammate . We are just exchanging some information . After all we are still your superior and even Naruto didn't interrupt us till now . Maybe that's why he is a chunin ," Tekuno said to sakura . He felt it's a rude behaviour of sakura to interrupt his jonin seniors .
" Sakura you shouldn't interrupt the talk between jonins . Not every jonin will like to get interrupted by a genin without a solid reason ," kakashi said to sakura . He reminded her that she is still a genin and she is in no position to ask a question to a jonin of konoha .
" Sorry kakashi sensei , I was curious about Naruto's mission ," sakura said to kakashi . She is embarrassed by getting lectured by two jonin at the same time .
" Don't worry about it sakura chan . The mission is classified as 'A' rank mission and couldn't be discussed to a genin . You know you can be tortured by enemies to get this kind of information . Information is power in this era . If I am not wrong it was told you by ibiki during chunin exam ," Hayama is kind enough to explain her about the situation . Sakura remembered the chunin exam and get depressed for some reason .
" It means Naruto can't talk about it to anyone as it is classified information ," sakura said to kakashi . She was hoping to ask it to Naruto later .
" You know he is a chunin now . Even if he is my student I have to treat him as my subordinate . He can talk about it to us but not to you as it will threaten your life ," kakashi said to sakura and sasuke . He looked at Naruto who is silent and didn't uttered a word till now .
" Kakashi sensei , Is water making ripples recently . I heard about sword of blood and ice cage is supporting the shadows of water . Is it true ," Naruto asked kakashi . Of course he used codes for mist village recent development . blood sword for zabuza , shadows of water for mei and ice cage for haku . Others jonins quickly understand what he is asking to his sensei . Sasuke and sakura couldn't understand what just naruto said .
" What kind of stupid question is that .You have gone for one day and became mental ," sakura said to Naruto . He didn't react to her comment . Waiting for Kakashi reply . He wants to know any information which escaped from demiurge .
" The water is making some ripples but it is not noticeable now . The sword of blood and ice cage are tough names now . The shadow of water has to unite the river to become a big shadow," kakashi said to them . Hayama and Tekuno paid full attention on kakashi's words . He actually said mist village situation is quite good but it is far from better . zabuza and haku made their names known throughout the ninja world . Zabuza was famous before but now he added more shine to his name . Mei has many a lot of work to unite the mist ninja village before she can become an official kage .
" What is going on . Kakashi sensei are you okay . It's some kind of game or something ," sakura said to kakashi . Sasuke understood by now that they were talking in a code language .
" Maybe sakura " Kakashi said to sakura with his famous eye smile . Sakura couldn't understand her sensei and his chunin teammate .
" There you are Naruto my godson . I went to your house but got stuck on the window . You never told me you know fuinjutsu ," Jiraya appeared between them . He is searching for Naruto to take him in a mission .
" Lord Jiraya ," All the three jonin said to him .
" My pervert godfather what you want from me . I hope it is not a pervert mission to capture a lady's bath house which is full of bathing ladies ," Naruto said to Jiraya . After it became a public knowledge that he is the son of fourth hokage . Jiraya introduced himself to Naruto as his godfather recently . Naruto made a huge hole in Jiraya's purse that day by dumping all the bill of ramen on him . He escaped after eating a lot of ramen that day . Teuchi understood what Naruto wants to do with Jiraya . Jiraya made a mental note to never treat ramen to Naruto .
" Well you can be more respectful to your godfather . But you suggested a nice story line by saying some words of wisdom . I will include your suggestion in my next icha icha series ," Jiraya said shamelessly to everyone . All the jonins present there are a huge fan of icha icha series . Sakura looked angrily at Jiraya for mentioning that adult series . He started to write something in his notepad very quickly after he listened to Naruto words .
" You should treat me ramen for suggesting something to you . I hope you wouldn't mind it ," Naruto said to Jiraya . Immediately everyone present there remembered his huge appetite . Jiraya looked at him as he cracked a joke on him .
" You should not be so hard on your godfather . You already made me pay for your food recently . I came to take you on a mission to bring back lady tsunade . She is recently spotted in a town ," Jiraya said to Naruto . He do not mind the presence of others .
" You can go and ask her yourself . Why should I come along with you to get a beatings from her . I heard she has beaten you to the inch of your life when you tried to peep on her in the hot spring my dear godfather ," Naruto exposed Jiraya . Jiraya never told this secret to anyone . Only few elite ninja of konoha knows about it .
" You shouldn't expose me like that . She will surely come if you go to bring her . That's why I am asking you to come . I will tell you a secret . She is your mother's eldest cousin and technically your aunt . She can be brutal to me but she will never lay a hand on you ," Jiraya said to Naruto . Others who listened to Jiraya words looked at naruto . He is from a family of freaks who can beat the shit out of their enemy .
" Brutality runs in whole family . Now I can see the similarities between kushina nee Chan and tsunade sama . They are related with each other from the very beginning . Mystery is solved ," kakashi said in excitement after solving a mystery of kushina's relation with tsunade . Other jonin didn't uttered a word when they remembered a red hair woman beating the shit out of perverts when they were just genins .
" Even if she is my aunt it doesn't mean she will leave everything behind and come here because of me . Not to be rude but she can boss me around everywhere if she is my aunt . You should bribe me with something more ," Naruto said to Jiraya . He is waiting for the grand prize .
" You have to come with me and it is an 'A' rank mission . I will teach you some new jutsu if you able to learn them faster . Tsunade will come even if she will disagree with us in the beginning ," Jiraya said to Naruto . He knew tsunade will never disagree if she will see Naruto . His face looks quite similar to nawaki . At last he is her last relative . He is hoping that she will agree for the hokage position .
" Okay if you say it like that , I will come with you . Don't forget about your promise ," At last Naruto agreed with him .
" Be ready at tomorrow morning . Meet me near the gates at ten o clock in the morning ," Jiraya said and disappeared in quick shunshin before Naruto can change his mind . He went to continue his research .
" Hey Naruto, your family is full of great ninjas . Your father was fourth hokage and mother was famous as red hot blooded habanero . You are from famous uzumaki clan . You have two sanin as a godfather and aunt . You are one lucky person . You making me jealous ," Tekuno said to Naruto . Anyone can feel a little jealous if someone get this kind of family background .
" Don't worry tekuno san you are from a great human species who are known for their intelligence . So don't be jealous ," Naruto said to tekuno . Kakashi and Hayama couldn't hold their laugh when Naruto said that to tekuno .
" Hayama why are you laughing , even you Kakashi senpai ," Tekuno is quite embarrassed by Naruto's joke . Hayama will tease him later about it .
" You are one lucky guy tekuno to born as human . I am so jealous ," Hayama started to tease tekuno . It lighten the mood between them .
" Naruto have you read recent bingo book . Your name was listed as 'A' rank shinobi threat in it . I was surprised to see your name in it ," kakashi said and showed him a page of an unknown book .

"You made to bingo book as 'A' rank threat . I am listed as a B rank . Even then your bounty is very high for a chunin . It surpassed my bounty by a huge margin and I am a jonin ," Hayama said to Naruto . He is not jealous but worried about him after he saw three villages has put a bounty on his head .
"I am not even listed in the bingo book . But three nation's has put a bounty on your head . They see you as a threat now ," Tekuno said to Naruto . Even he knows it is dangerous to be in the hit list of enemy nation's .
" Let them put more bounty on my head .I don't care about it . If someone comes for my head they will lose their head ," Naruto said to them .
" How come you did two S rank mission . I know you did one A rank mission in land of waves and another one which Kakashi sensei was talking in beginning of our conversation if I am correct . But I never knew that you did S rank mission . I thought it is rare for a chunin to be send in S rank mission ," sasuke said to Naruto . He was silent entire time but when he saw 2 S rank mission . He wanted to ask about it .
"It is not a secret so I can tell you . You have seen it during chunin finals when I made gaara fall in sleep . I was tasked before the finals by hokage to get close to gaara and make him unable to fight by my fuinjutsu and make the sand village to back off for some time . Guess what as soon as the match finished and he was about to leave the arena I made him to sleep . And for another S rank mission in my record is a bonus for playing a huge role in the war and killing a lot of sound ninja ," Naruto said to sasuke . Sasuke was confused by last bonus part .
" Bonus . I didn't get it Naruto how you get a bonus during war ?" sakura asked Naruto . He looked at kakashi for help .
" Naruto participated in war and his contribution is very high . In war people are rewarded by the kill count and how they contributed against enemy or saved their comrades . He made us win a war against two shinobi village . If we reward him with a C rank mission reward it will not feel good . So it was added as a S rank mission and pay on his account due to his contribution ," Kakashi said to his other students . Even he got a huge pay for killing a lot of sound ninja . It was around A rank mission pay for him and it was added as A rank mission in his contribution .
" Have your contribution also rewarded as a S rank pay sensei ," sakura asked kakashi . He is in dilemma on how to explain it to his student .
" I got 'A' rank pay for this mission . I contributed a lot but it was not enough after Naruto summoned a lot of bats . And I was busy during battle ," kakashi said to sakura . Then Naruto said something unexpected to her .
" Sakura how much did you contributed during war ? I hope you got at least C rank pay ," Naruto asked sakura . He knew she will unable to answer his question properly .
" I didn't get any pay during war time ," She was unable to think any other answer than that .
" You know Kakashi killed at least hundred shinobi during war and he got 'A' rank pay for that . It is not easy to win a war . We are lucky this time . You have not even tasted the true horror of war because Kakashi sensei and gai sensei eliminated all the enemies in arena . Then both of them went to support hokage after that . I have completed only two S rank mission but Kakashi sensei has completed S rank mission in double digits . It's not an easy feat sakura ," Naruto somehow explained it to Sakura .
" He is currently the record holder in S rank mission among jonins . Hokage and sanin are not included in this list . Even his double digits are bigger than any other jonin ," Tekuno said this time . He likes to share some of his wisdom with others . Sakura and sasuke looked at their jonin sensei as if they never knew about their sensei .
" He is ranked as a S ranked threat in bingo book and he has a very high bounty among jonins . After him asuma sarutobi and mighty gai are behind him in the active jonin group ," Hayama added another bomb in their conversation .
" What is the threat level of Itachi in bingo book ," sasuke wanted to know about his brother . His threat level and information from bingo book can be very useful for him in the future .
" He is an S ranked in bingo book after the uchiha massacre . His bounty is even higher than kakashi because of his sharingan ," Tekuno said to sasuke . He is not aware of sasuke's obsession for killing his brother .
" I should leave Kakashi sensei . I have to prepare for bounty hunters and my another mission . please excuse me ," Naruto said to Kakashi . He doesn't want to waste his time here . He said his goodbye to everyone and left .
He has already send tsunade and shizune to tanazuka town after they finished their training under yuri alpha . Orochimaru has started to search for tsunade after he was unable to cure himself . He wants to stop his hand from decaying by any means .
.........
Akatsuki hideout...
Projections of akatsuki members appeared in one place . All the members of akatsuki are present in the hideout without their physical bodies .
" Recently iwagakure contacted us to eliminate a target from konoha . And he is a jinchuriki of kyuubi .We are talking about Naruto uzumaki ," Pain said to every members of akatsuki . He was not planning to eliminate a jinchuriki very soon but he wanted to send someone to capture Naruto as soon as possible . But it became necessary now .
" I have seen the bingo book . He is quite young to be in that book . He has a very high bounty for a chunin . But many things are mystery in his profile . It only show's his ninjutsu rank , status , and achievements . It gives me a danger feeling as a bounty hunter ," kakuza said to pain . In the past he has faced many ninjas but those who can hide their ability from everyone are proved very tough opponent to him . By looking at his profile he can feel it .
" No one knows about his jinchuriki status in another ninja village . Konoha has hidden it pretty well . What we have to do with him pain sama ," deidara asked pain . He is thinking that he may get a chance to blow konoha . He will show his art to konoha if he get this chance .
" We have to capture him and extract the kyuubi from his body . After his death we can give his corpse to iwa and claim the bounty without any suspicion . Itachi and Kisame are best for this mission . So both of you will go after him ," Pain said to his group members . He will not let Naruto grow any further .
" What happened to the three tails . I heard that kirigakure were about to appoint a new mizukage very soon . But for now they are repairing from all the loses and trying to unite the mist ninjas to strengthen it ," Kisame asked zetsu . Zetsu is the spy master of akatsuki . Every information regarding other ninja village are known to him .
" The rebel leader mei terumi killed yagura . She is busy in uniting the mist village . She cannot become mizukage if she will not gain all the territory of mist village . But she is progressing very fast and captured more than half from yagura supporters . Three tail will form again in two or three years ," Zetsu said to Kisame . It's a loss for him and tobi to lose yagura . Not only they lost there puppet yagura but three tailed beast with it . Now they have to wait to reclaim it . Kisame also knows the truth about yagura .
" I also had some news from kumogakure that they are searching for a person named Kai uzumaki . No one has seen him . He has a grudge against anyone who had a hand on uzumaki clan's destruction . He gave his first warning to kumogakure with an offensive message and few dead bodies of kumo ninjas ," Zetsu said to akatsuki members . They were not impressed with the information .
" What is so great about this news . I am not impressed with this person . Very foolish action if you ask me ," Hidan said to others . Even he was not this reckless for provoking a ninja village even if he has immortality .
" No one was able to sense him . He hung the dead body and write the offensive message in front of the raikage tower . He did it in a broad daylight . No one has seen him at that time . Even my clone bodies were unable to locate him till now . He humiliated raikage with a simple trap and he fall for it . Even my clones laughed when they saw the mighty raikage fall from their tower . Whoever this Kai is , do not take him lightly ," Zetsu was not taking this Kai uzumaki lightly . Whoever escape his clone bodies is not a normal person .
" Do you know what he really wants ? " konan said to Zetsu . She got curious about him when she heard that a person can evade Zetsu . Zetsu is very good in spying while fully erasing his presence .
" I was fortunate enough to see the first message . As far as I can guess he wants to take revenge on kumogakure , iwagakure and kirigakure for what they did to uzushiogakure . He was a ninja of uzushiogakure . Maybe somehow survived the catastrophe of uzumaki clan . Preparing for ultimate payback from that time . Revealing himself now after he is fully prepared to remind them about their past deeds ," Zetsu told them about his opinion . He is waiting for Kai to reveal himself .
" I heard about the uzumaki clan . They did a number on them even during their own massacre . If they have a little more population then all the invading ninja villages would have to run from battlefield . They were a peaceful clan but you can see it was the reason of their demise ," kakuza said to them . He is old enough to know the deeds of uzumaki clan .
" Let's not talk about them . We have a lot of work . So you all are dismissed for now ," Pain said to them . And all the projections of their image disappears from the secret hideout .
