131 Asuma's request part 1...

Konoha…

Hokage Tower…

After giving leaving the training ground with Kurenai Naruto uses Hiraishin to teleport in the Hokage's room.

"Don't do that…" Upon two peoples sudden appearance Hiruzen got startled and when he saw who they were he shouted angrily " How many times do you want me to tell you? "  

"Sorry grams but that expression of yours is priceless. " Naruto said with a little laugh when he saw Hiruzen's ugly face.

"Not this again. " Hiruzen said with a sigh and thought 'I am really getting old but it is good that Tsunade is back to take the Hokage seat finally. ' and a small smile grew on his old face.

"Hey what is so funny? Do you find my sudden appearance so wonderfully? " Naruto asked confusedly upon seeing that face of Hiruzen.

"Not that. " Hiruzen said with a sigh and thought 'You're not getting old Hiruzen you are old face it. ' another sad sigh.

"What the hell is up with you gramps, are you alright? " Naruto asked confused with concern because of Hiruzen's ever-changing face and thought 'Is it because of his old age and he is about to die that he is having so much disorder in his nature. '

"Nothing is wrong. Anyway, the reason I called you is that I am getting a lot of complaint from your recklessness from the citizens of the village. " Hiruzen said with a calm tone.

"Is that it. Now don't tell me you called me because of that. I mean I don't care about those fools.  " Naruto asked with a calm smile, after all, he is not a good person.

A businessman to the core who has a rule of not caring about others opinion because that will not late he do as he wants to.

"No, I took care of all that after all I know what you think but still… " Hiruzen tried to explain with a sigh…

"If that is everything I don't think you need me here… " Naruto cut in and prepared to leave.

"No, wait. " Hiruzen stood up and shouted to stop Naruto and when he turned at him he again started talking " Actually I called you because I wanted to ask about that seal... "  Hiruzen said with a low voice.

"Well, actually I am stuck with that actually. " Naruto said as he remembered.

"Why what happend? " Hiruzen asked because more than anyone he needed it in the cycle after all he is the oldest among all of them.

"I need to use Nature chakra to finish the final step but you see I can't use Sage mode yet..."Naruto said shaking his head.

"That is not a problem at all, after all, the other day Jiraiya was talking to me about taking you to mount Mioboku to learn Sage jutsu. " Hiruzen said with a smile and a sigh of relief.

"I know that after all, I have talked with him about this as well. " Naruto said as he waited to know if there was more.

"Also when will you visit the fore great village. " Hiruzen asked seriously.

"That will take time actually. I will be going to the other three villages after the Chunin exam. " Naruto said nodding his head.

"So, for now, you will only be going to the Sunagakure and the other village later. Ok fine by me, after all, it is all up to you. Anyway, I need to tell you that the mission you will be going might have some problem. " Hiruzen said with a serious tone.

"You mean "The Land Snow and Ice" mission in Two days. " Naruto asked, after all, it is only a rank two mission so there shouldn't be any kind of problem is there.

"Yes, that one. Though it is only a "C-rank" escort mission, the client has a special identity. " Hiruzen said as he passed a scroll to Naruto.

After looking in the contain Naruto nodded and passed the scroll to Kurenai then looked at Hiruzen by his side "So you want me to make sure that she is safe. "

"Yes, that is the reason after all is she is lucky she might become the next head. And if we can secure her… " Hiruzen said with a diplomatic sign.

"Now it all makes sense. Alter all I was also thinking why would you want our team to go on such a low-rank mission. " Naruto said with an understanding smile.

"Naruto make sure you don't make her one of your women as well or do you want me to come with you. " After finishing looking at the content in the scroll Kurenai said suddenly.

"No dont worry all the times. You know all the other girls are. " Naruto said just to get scolded.

"I know everything… " Kurenai angrily as she went close to him…

"You two go to your house for your family quarrel. This is my office remember… " Hiruzen said quickly stopping then.

"Sorry Hokage sama... " Kurenai said with an apologetic smile as she remembers where she was.

"Anyway let's go I need to check on Karen's mother. " Naruto said as they said goodbye to Hiruzen.

When they left the Hokage tower and started walking toward the direction of the Hospital suddenly someone came from behind Naruto and higher him tightly…

"Ino… when did you return from your mission??? " Naruto who felt getting hugged asked with a smile as be felt the girl behind him.

"I returned just now and was going to the Hokage office to report with Sensei but then I saw you. " Ino said with a smile.

"Is that so. Glad you are safe. " Naruto said as he looked at her smiling face.

"Yes, you will be shocked to hear that this time the mission we went in turned out to be an A-rank mission even though we went for a C-Rank one. " Ino said with a proud smile.

"Wow that was awesome and you were able to finish all of that with no injuries… you have gotten really strong. " Naruto said keeping his smile.

"Yes, after all, I almost completed can't jutsu we practice the other day. " Ino said indicating their training together.

"That is good news. Anyway…" after telling her that he turned toward Shikamaru, Choji, and Asuma to say and thanked them.

"Naruto can you help me with something? "When Naruto is about to leave Asuma stopped him.

"What is it Sensei…."
