Mito spent afternoon training with Tenzo. Mostly focusing on wood release. Tenzo gave her advice when he saw she was stuck. Mito still was a little angry at him for bringing the snake so close to her. However she made sure it would never happen again. You ask how. Well she trained the boy, in taijutsu only. She wasn't merciful, she made excuses like it is for you to get better at this area, or for your reaction to get faster. Only did she at the end when Tenzo couldn't move from pain said :" don't ever think of attacking me with snakes, you will end like this however next time I won't heal you."
Tenzo nodded.
It was time for Mito to go she went earlier just not to be late. She was jumping on the roofs and then she landed on pole close to academy. However she did not stop to admire the view. She stopped and spoke:" You guys need to hide better if you don't want people knowing about you."
Underneath her there was a startled sound. Mito smirked :" what you guys won't denial it."
Kurenai was red as tomato and so was Asuma. Mito caught Asuma kissing Kurenai. She wondered if they were in relationship since such young days. Well if she remembered Asuma would leave village after the war has ended and he would be back after 9 to 11 years so it could be true.
Kurenai managed to speak:" it isn't what you think Mito - Chan."
Mito nodded :" ah, yes there it is. But it isn't surprising at all, all of us knew you two would end up together."
Asuma was then next to speak :" what do you mean. We're we that obvious."
Mito nodded :" as obvious as Genma was, at least that is what Rin would say."
Kurenai spoke again :" Mito - Chan, you won't tell anyone right. "
Mito answered :" if they ask i will tell, if they don't i won't."
Asuma was confused :" What does that mean."
Mito smirked :" I won't tell them if you don't make it even more obvious. I won't go around taking about you guys. I am not Kushina - San, anyways I won't lie to anyone who asks. But nobody will ask right. "
Kurenai nodded :" yeah nobody will ask. "
Mito smiled :" You know if you want to hide it better, don't kiss in town but rather kiss on empty training grounds. There must be some empty or kiss in forrest nearby. "
Kurenai spoke:" thank you for advising us."
Mito smirked :" You are welcome. Well also you could always train in sensing and avoid awkward situations, however that won't let you enjoy kissing as much as you seem to. "
As she spoke that she jumped on the next roof. Leaving flushed Asuma and Kurenai. Kurenai spoke :" I can't believe someone saw my first kiss. "
Asuma nodded :" yeah, and it had to be Uzumaki - San, anyways I will see you of. "
Kurenai blushed more as she carefully slip her hand into his. They hid it behind Asumas back as they walked through Konoha.
Mito arrived just on time. It was 8 pm. And Minato was there reading some of papers. Mito slowly walked towards him. Without making any noise. She came so close to him she was only 10 cm away. She watched his face. Yes it was beautiful. The blond locks that were probably soft, his blue eyes that were color of ocean. His cute nose. She wondered why she considered him handsome at this moment. She lost herself in thoughts. Was she finally going through changes in her preferences. When she just came in this world she would occasionally caught herself checking both females and males. However in last few weeks she only had checked boys.
Was her mind finally adjusting to her body. Well then she knew she wasn't likely to end with girl because it seemed like all of the girls liked boys and she was liked by boys. She could feel that her mind was still adjusting but she knew that she had still time. She still had a things to do before relaxing.
She then suddenly realized that she was lost in thoughts and that Minato was looking at her. Looking worried.
Minato asked when he saw Mito blink:" Are you okay."
Mito blushed:" ah, yes, I am alright I just realized something. And thought about it too much. Anyways. What are you reading."
Minato however didn't let the sudden change of topic to happen, asking :" why are you blushing. Do you have fever. "
Mito couldn't take it :" stop don't come any closer. "
Minato asked:" why, are you really alright. "he still was coming closer
Mito could feel her blush deepen and she panicked :" I found you attractive, so I was lost in my thoughts and thinking about how my body started to change since I entered puberty. "
She spoke fast almost not making sense. However her words stopped Minato who immediately returned to his previous position. Coughing awkwardly.
Mito then regained her senses and asked again :" what are you reading. "
Minato answered worried:" a report from one of the spies of Jiraiya. They are saying that Iwa is preparing a force to attack us."
Mito nodded :" and you don't know what to do. Well did that spy leave Iwa."
Minato nodded confused :" yes he has, he is on mission for them on the border with Kumo. He informed us when he knew that message would not be intercepted. "
Mito nodded :" that is good. It can't be taken in our advantage. If the meting won't go as you would like. Which will probably happen. We will use this against them. With blef of course. You see…… "
Minato nodded :" I understand, however are you sure they will believe. "
Mito smirked :" they must, because if we knew about them that means we had a chance to do it. "
Soon after Nara clan head entered to find Minato and Mito in the room already talking. He wasn't surprised to see Mito he heard from Hokage what she said. Nara knew that Mito was genius however he still did not know where her abilities were. He didn't knew how goo she was. He only thought that she is as smart as Nara. He wondered if she would be a challenge in shogi. The girl noticed him and bowed. He was always amazed how she would always show her respect. Even though she did not seen why he was to be respected. However he saw in her eyes that she didn't follow what others would do. He never saw her bow to someone who did not deserve it like civilan council.
Mito spoke :" Nara-dono, what are you thinking about. It must be something troublesome."
Minato couldn't hold his laugh back. He also noticed that Nara had stopped for a second probably lost somewhere else.
Nara smirked :" You said it yourself. Why don't you try to geuss. "
Mito answered immediately :" I don't know how to play shogi Nara - dono. I could see a spark in your eyes."
Minato was confused.
Nara smirked :" Well that is surprising I did think about asking for a match, even one for my son. However there were also other thoughts I was caught on. "
Mito nodded :" Well obviously. But they could be answered by shogi one. Or am I wrong."
Minato asked :" How do you know he plays shogi. "
Mito shuggered:" I read a lot about clans like for example Naras are the smartest of clans their average iq is 175 which is considered really high. Because they are to smart they find most things boring and they like to laze around. One of activities they like to do is shogi, because they can torture their opponents while playing. Analizing everything about their opponent. Honestly I am surprised that you didn't invite me when I was under surveillance. "
Nara clan answered :" Well I aspected as much from you. To answer your question I wanted however me taking you to Nara compand would make you suspicious. And Hokage thought about you training teams as you showing your loyalty. "
Mito nodded :" Well I did it because I didn't really want to train alone. I didn't want to help them that much. "
Minato chuckled :" tsundere. " expecting Mito to not know what that means. Because Kushina didn't when she was Mitos age however the glare he received show him that he was wrong. Nara laughed however he was silenced by the same glare.
Mito spoke with sweet smile, which was clearly fake:" Well I would like to hit you two but our guest are nearby. So I will hold it in."
The two off them then heard someone coming into the office. The first one to enter was a man with red hair, moustache and beard, on his head he was wearing a large headpiece consisting of a three pointed crown-like ridge. His whole outfit was read and Mito immediately realized who he was. Roshi, the jinchuriki of Son Goku, the four tails. She remembered that he would leave Iwa because the of lost of Iwa. Mito prayed to the Sage that Roshi wouldn't notice her being a jinchuriki. She also wondered if him being here was allowed. Then she realized that there were already at war. The next man that came in room was larger and Mito remembered him always by the side of Tsuchigake. She tried to remember his name, something similar to akatskui. Wait was it Akatsuchi. While she wondered about that third person entered. Mito didn't recognize him. She let herself remain composed by Minato side.
The trio looked at Konoha shinobi. All of the eyes stopping on Mito. However they were more confused than anything else. Roshi looked longer at her than the rest however he finally spoke:" Minato-san, what are thinking putting a kid in this place."
Minato quickly spoke :" She is respectful shinobi in our village, Roshi-dono."
Mito smirked a cocky smirk and spoke:" it is nice to meet such important people of Iwa here."
The iwa trio thought that she was disrespectful :" if you want to talk then at least introduce yourself. "
Mito smirked :" gladly, I am Uzumaki Mito, Roshi-dono, however I did not heard your names." she spoke gesturing to other two.
She heard :" Akatsuchi, and Ishikawa."
Minato then spoke :" what is your response to our last week's conditions. "
Roshi spoke:" we cannot agree. "
Minato then continued to speak about new conditions. Meanwhile Mito whispered to Nara clan head:" I don't know if you know, but Roshi - dono is a jinchuriki. If you know just nod, if you don't then hit me. "
The two were watching Mito saying something In the ear of Nara. Scowling, and being satisfied when Mito was hit in the back. However she did not react to it. She moved away from Nara. And then when Minato stopped talking to the Iwa shinobi. Leaving Roshi to think about it. Mito knew he wouldn't. This negotiation were just a show. She whispered to Minato :" Roshi-dono is a jinchuriki, don't let them know that you know, untill they refuse you I will act."
Minato wanted to ask how would she act however she quickly stepped back. And he did not have a chance.
Roshi spoke:" Iwa won't be able to agree, Tsuchigake doesn't see this as beneficial to us. "
Mito gave her a quick nod to Minato who spoke:" Then we must deal with those trips you are preparing for attacking us. Mito - Chan you can active that seal." Mito started to form seals.
Roshi paled, his plan was discovered. He started to gather his chakra.
Mito smirked as wood suddenly started to appear around the Roshi and he couldn't move. His two teammates were quickly knocked out. One by Minato and the other was firstly held still by Nara shadow possession and knocked out by Mito.
However Roshi managed to break free once he pured more of biju chakra into his system.
Mito sighed :" I am still not strong enough to hold a jinchuriki down. Well luckily I thought about this."
Suddenly Roshi could not move. He was surprised. Mito spoke:" there were seals on those branches. A paralysis seals. Even a jinchuriki cannot fight those. Right 4 tails. "
Roshi was surprised :" How do you know. Don't tell me, you guys have a spy in Iwa."
Mito chuckled :" and you don't have one in Konoha."
Roshi spoke:" ours was killed. "
Mito nodded :" possibly, well anyways we still have to deal with those forces that are planning to attack us. Know was their a signal you guys would use for them to attack or was it time attack. "
Seeing that Roshi didn't answer, Mito spoke:" a time attack then, there isn't much you could do since you are in Konoha. "
Minato asked :" when"
Roshi didn't answer.
Mito sighed loudly saying :" I geuss I will have to find out by force." as she said that she let her hand land on Roshis head and she pured some of her and Isobu chakra inside. She arrived inside of his mindscape. However she didn't allow him to follow her. She used more of chakra for that. Which also meant she had less time. She appeared with Isobu next to Son Goku. And she spoke:" Are you Son Goku. An older brother to Isobu. If so it is nice to meet you."
