[Senju Hashirama: What did you just say?]
[Senju Tobirama: Now that I think about it, he actually has a point.]
[Hyuga Hizashi: Oh my goodness, the hierarchy in this group is completely messed up!]
[Namikaze Minato: My teacher is Jiraiya, one of the legendary Sannin. Jiraiya's teacher is Sarutobi Hiruzen, the Third Hokage. That means Lord Third should be considered my grandmaster—or master, in short. Now that Lord Third has accepted Makoto as his disciple, in terms of seniority, he is indeed my master.]
[Senju Tobirama: So that makes me your great grandmaster?]
[Senju Hashirama: Me too!]
[Uchiha Madara: Then that means I'm your great grandmaster's best friend!]
[Uchiha Izuna: And I'm the younger brother of your great grandmaster's best friend!]
[Namikaze Minato: ...]
Minato was completely at a loss for words. He regretted explaining the whole hierarchy in the first place. He had been struggling to figure out how to address Makoto, but now, out of nowhere, he had ended up with an entire lineup of unexpected masters. He hadn't anticipated Madara and Izuna joining in and declaring themselves as the best friends of his great grandmasters.
[Namikaze Minato: Ahem… Makoto, considering that you and Naruto belong to the same generation, and I'm Naruto's father, I think it's best if I call you the group leader, and you can just call me uncle.]
[Makoto Ito: Oh, Fourth, now that you mention it, I almost forgot about Naruto! So does this mean Naruto will have to call me master from now on? Hehehe…]
[Namikaze Minato: ...]
As the group continued their lively discussion about seniority, Kushina and Mikoto were preoccupied with a different concern.
[Uzumaki Kushina: Damn it! Why isn't Makoto in the same team as Naruto? Does this mean I won't get to see him often in the future?]
[Uchiha Mikoto: Yeah, I feel the same! I want to see my son frequently too.]
[Makoto Ito: Don't worry. There will be plenty of opportunities in the future. Even though I'm the Third Hokage's disciple, I won't always be on missions. There's even a chance I might end up following other teams or teaming up with Team 7 later on!]
[Uchiha Mikoto: That's right! There will definitely be chances.]
...…
Meanwhile, in the Hokage's office, Hiruzen had summoned Hatake Kakashi.
"Kakashi, from now on, you will be responsible for Uzumaki Naruto, Uchiha Sasuke, and Haruno Sakura. I trust you understand why I assigned them to you," Hiruzen said, observing Kakashi's ever-calm expression as he patiently explained.
"I understand, Hokage-sama!" Kakashi responded with a nod, accepting the order without hesitation.
After finishing his explanation, Hiruzen felt as though he had forgotten something important. He took a few deep puffs from his pipe, trying to recall, but after a while, he decided to stop overthinking it.
....
After the teams were assigned, the respective teachers led their students away, leaving only
Naruto, Sasuke, Sakura, and Makoto behind in the classroom.
Naruto, Sasuke, and Sakura were all wondering who their teacher was and why he hadn't arrived yet.
However, Makoto already knew.
Kakashi was notorious for spending his time reading pornographic books and always showing up late.
'But why hasn't Sarutobi come to take me yet? Did he completely forget about me?' Makoto thought, his expression filled with confusion.
With no one arriving, the atmosphere in the classroom grew increasingly awkward. Naruto was the only one making noise, voicing his frustration, but the others shared his thoughts.
"Damn it! Why hasn't he come yet?!" Naruto grumbled, his face full of annoyance.
In between his complaints, he tried to strike up a conversation with Sakura. But she was completely fixated on Sasuke, greeting him repeatedly as if she had completely forgotten that Naruto and Makoto were even in the room.
Sasuke, on the other hand, was still brooding over the fact that Sarutobi had accepted Makoto as his disciple.
'Damn it! Why was he chosen as the Hokage's disciple? Am I not good enough? Why am I stuck with these two weaklings?' he thought bitterly, his mood darkening further.
Unlike the others, Makoto was simply sitting back, glancing around the classroom, feeling bored. He couldn't help but wonder what Sarutobi was planning for him.
...
[Uzumaki Kushina: What the hell is Naruto's teacher doing? Why hasn't he arrived yet? How long has it been since the teams were assigned?]
[Uchiha Mikoto: Exactly! The other students have already left with their teachers. Why hasn't Sasuke's teacher shown up yet?!]
[Makoto Ito: I'm not sure either. I don't know what the Third Hokage is up to. Maybe he's using his Telescope Technique to spy on the women's bathhouse again.]
[Senju Tobirama: What did you just say? That monkey spies on the women's bathhouse?!]
[Makoto Ito: As his teacher, you should already know about it. Don't you know that his biggest hobby is peeping at women in the bathhouses?]
[Senju Tobirama: How could I possibly know?! When I was alive, that monkey bastard acted like a proper gentleman. Who would've thought he'd turn into such a depraved old man?!]
[Makoto Ito: But aren't you the one who invented the Telescope Technique?]
[Senju Tobirama: Bullshit! I wouldn't waste my time creating such a technique!]
[Uchiha Mikoto: Makoto, are you serious? Does the Third Hokage really spy on women bathing?]
[Uzumaki Kushina: Yeah, explain yourself! What kind of Hokage has such a perverted hobby!?]
[Uzumaki Mito: I want to know too. Did that little monkey really dare to do something like this?!]
All the women in the group felt a shiver run down their spines after seeing Makoto's message.
[Makoto Ito: The Third Hokage has a technique called the Telescope Technique. He can use a crystal ball to see anything happening in the village. And his favorite hobby was spying on women bathing. As for whether any of you have been watched… I don't know.]
[Uchiha Mikoto: ...]
[Uzumaki Kushina: ...]
[Uzumaki Mito: ...]
[Uchiha Fugaku: Makoto, are you sure you're not making this up?]
[Makoto Ito: What do you mean? Why would I lie about something like this? What would I gain from it?]
[Namikaze Minato: This… can't be…]
[Senju Tobirama: That perverted monkey! How dare he do something so shameless?! Damn it! How did I not notice this?! SARUTOBI!!!!]
