Chapter 9 - Kakashi

Hearing her surname both men dumbfounded.

"Uchiha? I've never seen a red head Uchiha. We can see many red head Uzumaki. There is one in here too" White haired man mumbled.

Hearing what he said Kushina snapped again. "Got a problem with that old man!"

"No... not at all." Jiraiya shivered. 'She is definitely second Tsunade.'

"Little Tsukiho, did you move to village recently? Don't all Uchiha clan members suppose to stay in Uchiha compound?" Minato asked.

Tsukiho knew what Minato intend to know, since he is someone trusted by Kushina and her grandmother. She also have less to worry. "My dad and grandma did live in here. Grandma said her and dad's mission is to protect the village from the outside and protect mom's clan legacy." Then both men had an understanding where they living in.

"So you came here specially to see me?" Kushina was touched to the point there were even stars in her eyes.

"Hmm, I want to take a look at grandma and dad's clan too. I want to look at the village too. Dad and grandma said a lot of things about the village. I want to see them myself." She smiled.

"Then how is the village dear?" Kushina softly pinched her cheeks as she kneel down next to Tsukiho.

"It's beautiful. It is beautiful than my home. May be it because only my family live in there. But here there are so many people and most of them have so warm chakra. Like Aunt, uncle and this grandpa"

Her last sentence made Kushina and Minato to burst in to laughter.

"Well said baby. He is really a lecherous old man. Hump" Kushina smirked. "See my niece is really smart. Seems like she found out certain someone's sore spot"

"Hey little devil, I'm not a grandpa. I'm just thirty five years old!" Hearing her words Jiraiya dumbfounded. Then a tick mark appeared on his forehead.

"Your hair is white. How could you have white hair at such a young age?" She felt like laughing but she kept an innocent expression while asking him.

"Uncle is your vitality drained by some kind of demon?"

"You little devil! I was born with white hair. It is totally natural to have white hair! See that brat from Hatake clan also have white hair?" He pointed his finger at the main door. Then everyone looked at where his finger pointed at.

Then a white haired teenager who had a mask on his face came from the outside. As he felt everyone's gaze, his indifferent eyes looked at them.

"What is it?" An emotionless voice came from him.

"Nothing Kakashi come here. I have someone to introduce to you" Minato smiled despite his cold attitude as he used to it.

"So he has white hair too. So white hair can be natural?" Tsukiho rubbed her temple with index finger.

"See little devil. Hump" the white haired man snorted.

"Sorry mister, can I know your name?" Tsukiho thoughtfully asked.

"Hehe do you want to know my name little brat?"

"I'm Tsukiho not little brat" she muttered but then she nodded at him.

"I'm Myouboku Mountain's monk of the frog spirit, also known as the Toad Sage. And one of the legendary Sannin

Jiraiya." Tsukiho looked at the ridiculous dance performed by Jiraiya. She felt that it is even funnier than in the anime.

Then she clapped at him after his introduction. "So uncle is a Sage Toad" she said blankly.

Hearing annoying words of the little devil Jiraiya acted like someone hit his head with a hammer as he his knees gives in. Looking at his reaction Kushina laughed loudly while Minato tried to held back his laughter even emotionless Kakashi had corners of his lips turned to upwards.

After a moment Jiraiya sighed to relieve his distress and then looked at Tsukiho carefully. "Seriously little devil how old are you? Seems like you are way more smaller than the others in your age." He started to provoke her too.

At his remark a tick mark appeared on both Kushina and Tsukiho's face. "Mister how old you think I am?" She smiled eerily as she inherit in from her mother.

"....Probably three or four years old" Her expression made him realise something off but he answered to her questions. "Right Minato?"

"Sensei I don't think it's quite right. To me it feels like she is in Itachi's age." Minato knew her smile as he have seen it from Kushina since they were in the academy. So he thought a little bit before answering. Judging by her little figure, he remembered his friend who is now Uchiha clan head Fugaku Uchiha's child Itachi Uchiha. Though she is little bit bigger than him. "Are you two years old or maybe little less than that Tsuki?"

"Little bit correct. I'm one year and four months old now." Then she dropped a bomb as except Kushina, all of them stupified.

"What?!" Excluding Kushina all three exclaimed. In there mind was only one sentence. 'No way right' Then all of them looked at Kushina. And she nodded at what Tsukiho spoke.

"Indeed, she is just one year old." All of them dazed like they didn't hear it at all.

"No way" Jiraiya was the first one to awake. "There is no way, Even Princess Tsunade who was descendant of Lord First didn't have such a chakra amount til she entered the academy."

"So what, she is a direct descendant of Ashina Uzumaki. Who was even terrifying than Lord First. Hump" Kushina snorted at how rude Jiraiya is.

"Aren't you the last Princess of Uzumaki. How could be there is another one" Kakashi asked.

"My cousin is still alive in there. She is the one who sent me here and she refused to come as she want to protect the inheritance of the Uzumaki." Kushina said with a self deprecating smile.

Then they understood they shouldn't ask more and Tsukiho looked at the white haired masked boy. "Aunt who is this big brother?"

The boy is little embarrassed as he forcefully intrude in to their conversation. Then he cough to cover up his embarrassment. "Hello my name is Kakashi Hatake."

"Hello my name is Tsukiho. If you want to be my friend you can call me Tsuki." She introduce herself to future copy ninja. But she didn't say her surname because it will be a headache if she says it.

"Tsuki, he is my student that come here to train. Do you want to watch us train" Minato asked.

"Ok. I want to train with you too. Uncle Minato can I?" She asked with puppy eyes.

*Cough cough* "Kushina what do you think?" Minato looked at Kushina and stopped coughing.

"Don't worry go ahead. I have a hunch Tsuki definitely will be a challenge for Kakashi." She thumbs up while saying.

Hearing that Kakashi snorted with contempt while wondering how can one year old baby become a challenge for him, a Chunin who is a step away from becoming a Jonin.
