The next day kōga paid his father a visit.
"I'll like to travel to konoha and to see mito-nee!" Said kōga to his father.
Jun raised a brow before asking kōga why.
"I wish to gain a few copies of techniques from the senju clans library, plus I get to see mito-nee as well." Truefully answer kōga.
"And I'm guessing the reason you aren't asking for these techniques over messenger bird is due to privacy!?" Questioned jun as he began drafting a scroll of leave from the village for kōga, along with a 4 man squad.
Kōga nodded. "Yes as we established earlier, no one is to know that Uzushio has found a way to synthesize kekkai genkai!" Answered kōga taking the scroll his father finished signing off for him.
Jun just nodded, before handing kōga 3 other scrolls, all having messages for mito. As her father, mother and grandfather missed her dearly.
Saying his goodbyes to his family, kōga then met his team at the docks. The group consisted of; Rei his attendant in the earlier war, A young Uzumaki male called Uzumaki Kein, a second woman called Uzumaki Shina and lastly another male called Uzumaki Shiba.
"Greetings kōga-sama!" The 4 chorused as kōga stepped onto his designated ship for travel.
"Rei, and its nice to meet the rest of you, let's get going as i don't want to be away from the village for long!" Kōga said nodding at rei as stepped on.
A couple minutes later found the ship sailing down the river.

A few hours later found said ship pulling into a port on the east side of the land of fire.
As the ship pulled into the docks, it drew alot of attention as many in this era still knew of the alliance between konohagakure and Uzushiogakure.
As the ships came to a stop the group stepped off. Kōga turned around pulling out a scroll from his sleeves, he then proceeded to unroll said scroll onto the surface of the peer before slamming his palm onto the scroll.
"Seal!" Intoned kōga and everyone watched as the ship turned into white chakra smoke, before floating into the seal on the scrolls surface.
Standing back up and putting away the scroll kōga issued a command. "Let's go, our next destination is konoha!" He said before walking off towards the entrance of the port town where after exiting, the group of 5 began hopping from tree to tree setting a decent pace at high chunin speeds.
At this speed kōga and his team would make it to konoha before nightfall.

Konoha Main Gates
The 2 guards at the gate sat bored out of their minds, when they suddenly they straightened as the sound of wind displacement was heard.
Secretly the 2 guards armed themselves with kunai while signaling the hidden anbu team at the gate.
The 2 tensed, as 5 figures in black and grey landed in front of the guard booth. Their firey crimson hair instantly stood out.
"Halt state your name and business here!" 1 of the chunin manning the gate exclaimed, the other exited the booth calmly but vigilantly.
Kōga stared for a moment before speaking.
"Elite jonin and heir of Uzushiogakure, Uzumaki kōga, here to see my elder sister Uzumaki Mito, wife of the late 1st hokage!" He stated his purpose clearly.
The 2 chunin at the gate froze, their minds blanking at the given information.
Suddenly a masked shinobi wearing a black cloak appeared by the gates booth silently.
"We'll take it from here, sizo-san." The masked shinobi said flatly as he gestured for kōga and his team to follow him.
Kōga and his team acquiesced to the shinobis gesture to follow.

The hokages office
Currently in the hokages office, sarutobi hiruzen the newly installed 3rd hokage, along with his teammates, shimura danzo, mitokado homura and lastly Utatane Koharu.
Hiruzen sitting in his seat, steadily puffed on his pipe.
"Do any of you have any idea what the heir of Uzushiogakure wants to talk about with mito-sama?" He asked.
Danzo, always 1 to use methods that would start another war instantly spoke up. "I dont see why you allow him to see mito, she's our villages jinchuriki, we should capture them and use them to breed more of their clan for konohas benefit!" He said bluntly uncaring that mitos younger brother was among the people he suggested they capture and use as stud horses.
Hiruzen regretted ever asking his question. Temple throbing, hiruzen waved away danzos comments as if it was nothing but air.
"Anyone else has a better idea as to why he wants to see mito-sama?" He asked causing danzo to release a huff.
Koharu just shrugged. "He is mito-sama's younger brother, why can't siblings see each other, it's the simple fact that, Uzushio is situated across the sea which means, they dont get to see or communicate with each other as much!" She hazard a guess, causing hiruzen to release a sigh of relief, at least someone can gave him a normal answer.

Senju clan compound
The masked shinobi stopped before the senju clan gates, gesturing with a hand before flickering away his job done.
Though kōga could sense that, said shinobi along with the other 3 he'd sense earlier at the gates, were purched outside in the trees surrounding the clans gates.
Kōga just inwardly scoffed, the Uzumaki clan was known for being some of the best kami damn sensors known, and these masked shinobi thought they could hide from them.
When jun chose this team, he'd made sure that every member was someone who could in fact, use the clans sensory technique extremely well.
Entering the clans compound, kōga saw that although the senju clan grounds weren't as empty as he'd suspected them to be, the numbers were still quite low.
Kōga, using the Uzumaki clans Minds eye of the kagura pinpointed his sisters chakra signature quite easily.
Kōga walked up to a large 2 story house made of wood. A wood, he might add oozed vitality like nothing else.
'Wood release!' Kōga mused internally. The house was built for quite some time now, yet the house still radiated such vitality.
Kōga gave the wood at the side of the sliding shogi door a strong knock.
Kōga and the others felt it, as their own chakra reacted to being felt out.
A smile blossomed on kōgas face. "Open up nee-san, it's me your adorable little kōga!" Hollered kōga causing the 4 behind him to sweat drop, while inside the house a crimson haird woman who'd been tending to her little granddaughter had black lines run down the top part of her head.
"Ugh, no, why are you here!" Mito said under her breath causing her granddaughter, tsunade to look up at her with a curious gaze.
"You never told me you had a younger brother grandma Mito!" Exclaimed tsunade excitedly.
Mito felt a sweat drop form on her forehead.
Standing while lifting tsunade into her arms Mito made her way to the door, to which she slid said door open, only to see the grinning image of her younger brother.
"What are you doing here brat!" Mito asked with a quirked brow.
