Hokage asked :" when you say honor of village what do you mean."
Mito answered :" they honor of our village is a royal clans, they cannot die off, they will choose a candidate that would help produce a hair to clan."
Fugaku cought:" and what do you mean with die off clans. "
Mito responded :" The clans that have one member that is of age to have a child. "
Fugaku wasn't satisfied with her answer and asked:" Then how about Uzumaki clan. "
Mito answered :" While Uzumaki clan indeed has one member of age, there are some rumors about few running Uzumaki, and besides Minato and Kushina are doing their best to provide a child."
The room felt silent they didn't want to know.
Hokage asked for her opinion :" How would you end the war with Iwa. "
Mito was surprised that they still didn't have answer to this, well she guess it was few months early still. She answered :" we should cut off their supplies. The best is to block their supply lines from Kusa."
Jiraiya nodded his head that was one of best options. Hokage asked :" And how do you think that can be completed.".
Mito answered :" by destroying Kannabi bridge."
Hokage wondered :" Do you know how big that bridge is. "
Mito shake her head and simply answered:" if it is big just send a seal master to take it down."
Jiraiya facepalmed it was an easy solution but he couldn't think of it.
Mito continued :" if you want i can go and destroyed it myself. "
The clan heads were strongly against it.
Mito tried to calm them down by saying she could go with a team. Which worked to some degree. Hokage asked then:" Do you think that Kakashi is ready to become Jonin. "
The clan heads didn't know where this was going. Mito answered :" he is strong enough for jonin promotion, he has a mentality of own, but I don't think he is 100% ready. But I think you should promote him. "
After coming out of Hokage office Mito runs at team 7 and Genma and Shisui who waited in front of the doors. Mito stayed all night here so it was morning when she came out of the office.
Mito asked :" can I help you. "
Mito did look tired out, but she didn't seem like she would collapse at any moment.
Minato was first to notice that and asked:" if you are tired we will talk to you later."
Mito answered :" I am fine just shoot your questions."
Minato asked :" where were you yesterday."
Mito answered :"outside of the Village."
Minato asked :" what were you doing there."
Mito answered :" we were searching for something and then we spared and then we came back."
Genma asked then:" could you please answer us honestly,, we were worried for you."
Mito looked at him she couldn't help but to sigh:" I can't, it is secret and it shouldn't be said to anyone."
Minato asked:" Is it connected with Hokage leaving the Village."
Mito nodded her head but didn't say a thing. Which meant she wasn't allowed to talk about it. Mito then apologized :" I am sorry but I must go now. I am also sorry but I will be busy these next few days. "
She left slowly. Team 7 was called in the Hokage office so both Genma and Shisui followed Mito.
Aparently Kakashi was going to be tested for jonin promotion. Minato was firstly against it but Kakashi made decision to take a test on his own. Minato wasn't satisfied but he could see that Kakashi wanted it, he had to allow it. However Hokage wanted to say something else too :" if Kakashi makes a jonin, I will send you to battlefield for one extremely important mission."
Minato was professional and nodded his head to Hokage orders. While he was worried for his team he knew they could handle it, they had to.
Few days later announcement was announced that great elder of Konoha Danzo has died from a heart attack. His death was mourned however the clan heads lefted his funeral shortly after it begun and even Hokage did so. Mito stayed as representative of both Hokage and clan heads. While the civilians wondered what was so important that those higher ups couldn't attend this funeral or maybe there was something else there. Mito began her speech about everything that Danzo has done for village, she didn't say anything about his crimes. She explained that the village needed somebody great like Danzo and they needed to find that somebody quickly.
The Village mourned his death for few days. However everything was going on. Kakashi managed to pass jonin test and was promoted to jonin. Soon the team 7 was again summoned to Hokage office and there they got mission details they were going to be leaving in 3 days. There will be additional member on the team. Minato was worried because he had to split with his team for part of the mission to help Konoha forces which were outnumbered. However Hokage insured that additional member would make sure nothing happened to them while he was gone. He was also surprised by the mission of destroying Kannabi bridge so he geussed somebody strong enough to collapse it would added to the team.
Mito meanwhile was busy doing paperwork for Hokage, doing advanced seals for destroying Kannabi bridge and even researching some new seals. She didn't know what would happen so she should be ready for everything. She didn't want anything going wrong with this mission so she needed to make sure Rin won't be kidnapped. So they won't end up in the cave. She had a lot plans to do. She couldn't let anything surprise her she had to be ready for everything.
Mito had a dinner with Kushina like usual this time Kushina was worried about team 7 safety. Kushina said :" I can't stop worrying about them, I don't know who will be going with them. Do you know."
Mito answered :" I know, that person will be making sure everything goes right, don't worry."
Kushina asked:" can't you tell me."
Mito said:" I can but you have to keep it secret at least until the mission begins. "
Kushina nodded her head with curiosity leaking from her eyes.
Mito pointed to herself and said:" I will go with them. "
Kushina was surprised :" What. What do you mean."
Mito had to calm her down there after all they were in restaurant. Kushina faces were going from worried to super worried and then it looked like she saw something good in that decision. Well at least Mito would spend some time with Kakashi. She will pray for him to make a successful move on Mito.
Mito then said :" I still need to buy a gift for Kakashi promotion."
Kushina had already brought and gave her gift to Kakashi to congratulate Kakashi so she asked :" Should I go with you."
Mito considered the offer and nodded her head.
Kushina and Mito walked through shinobi market because it was obvious that Kakashi only used shinobi stuff. Mito searched for anything that screamed Kakashi. She was very careful not to give to much or too useless things to him.
