read my new story : American Fast & Furious NSFW
Naruto Uzumaki becoming a Genin.
This news kept him happy for a whole night.
However, subsequent developments made it impossible for him to stay happy.
Every day's missions were either weeding or clearing manure.
Or helping a neurotic noblewoman find her runaway pet.
Naruto Uzumaki couldn't tolerate such missions for even a single day longer!
(╯#-皿-)╯~~╧═╧
Hokage Building.
Facing Naruto's pickiness about missions, Iruka was furious.
Clearly just a rookie Genin who just graduated, yet he was picking and choosing, wanting to execute high-level missions.
Wasn't it good to complete low-level missions seriously and stay alive? He insisted on going on dangerous missions.
"Naruto!!!"
"Alright, Iruka." Pacifying the irritable Iruka, Hiruzen Sarutobi held his old pipe in his mouth.
He guided Naruto patiently.
"Naruto, you have to know that the village's missions are divided into different levels from low to high, starting from the low-level..."
"...Corresponding ninjas..."
"Second point..."
"That concludes..."
Naruto sat on the ground, muttering to himself: "Yesterday Big Sister Ayame made pork chop rice bowl. Will she make my favorite ramen today?"
Hiruzen Sarutobi: (╯#-皿-)╯~~╧═╧
"Hey! Naruto! Are you listening to me at all!?"
Naruto looked impatient: "Of course not, blah blah blah... a bunch of nonsense."
"Old man, I'm a very strong ninja. Can you give me some high-level missions?"
Hiruzen Sarutobi puffed on his pipe fiercely.
Just when Naruto thought there was no hope, Hiruzen suddenly put down the pipe in his hand.
"Since you insist so strongly..."
Naruto's eyes widened.
"I'll give you a C-rank mission."
"Yay!~"
After Naruto walked out of the office with an excited face, Hiruzen instructed the ninja beside him.
"Go call Musashi Ryomiya."
"Wait! Find Yamato, and ask him to notify Musashi to come over."

Inside the bedroom.
The lightning on Musashi's body gradually faded, and he put down the ninjutsu materials in his hand.
He rubbed the center of his brows, somewhat troubled.
Ninjutsu training seemed to have hit a bottleneck.
Compared to Taijutsu, recent ninjutsu research had gradually slowed down, with no progress for a long time.
It could even be said to be stagnant.
As for the reason, on one hand, he thought he had been working behind closed doors for too long and hadn't gone out for a while.
On the other hand, his financial situation wasn't very good.
The purchase of high-level ninjutsu materials made his already thin wallet worse.
Things from the Black Market were good, but too expensive. Although the money from publishing picture books was quite a lot, it was still very tight to buy high-level ninjutsu materials.
Recently, he had been making ends meet with difficulty.
"It seems it's time to make money."
Knock knock!
"Who?"
"Musashi, it's me." Yamato's voice came from outside the door.
"Captain? Why are you here? Is there a mission?"
"Lord Hokage is looking for you."
---
"Escort mission?"
Hokage Office, Musashi looked at Hiruzen in surprise.
"That's right. Naruto is going out of the village for a mission recently. To ensure safety, you need to escort him in secret," Hiruzen said.
Musashi said: "Lord Hokage, isn't Senior Kakashi Naruto's Jonin leader?"
"It's just a C-rank mission, why does it need secret protection?"
Hiruzen said: "Kakashi's strength is indeed good."
"However, Naruto's safety is more important."
"Musashi, you should also have some understanding of Naruto's importance. So, just in case, we have to be prepared for everything."
"A C-rank mission is nothing. Even if it were a B-rank mission, with Kakashi's strength, there would be no problem."
"It's just to avoid accidents and guard against people with ulterior motives. You have the best relationship with Naruto, and your strength is sufficient. This mission is most suitable for you."
Musashi nodded slowly: "I understand, Lord Hokage."
Before leaving, Hiruzen added a sentence.
"At critical moments, protecting Naruto is the primary mission."
"At all costs."
---
Walking out of the Hokage office building, Musashi was still thinking about who specifically Hiruzen's "all costs" referred to.
He walked all the way home.
Started packing, and said goodbye to Karin and Ayame by the way.
"Big Brother, can I go with you?" Karin looked reluctant to part.
"Silly, stay with Teacher Kurenai and study hard. I'm going on a mission, not playing."
Even if I were playing, I wouldn't take you.
The little girl was really too clingy.
Moreover, recently when facing Ayame, he always showed signs of losing control. The damn beautiful sister seemed to know she smelled good right now, teasing him with some bad taste from time to time.
Seeing his serious but very wanting look.
To suppress the fire, going out for a while was also a good way.
"...Okay." Karin agreed helplessly.
Actually, there wasn't much to pack.
He knew that the situation Hiruzen worried about, someone coveting the Jinchuriki, didn't happen in this mission.
It was just the Gato gang and an old man who morally kidnapped them to cheat on the mission fee.
The next day.
Kakashi led Team 7 and the stingy old man Tazuna to the Land of Waves.
Musashi, dressed in a trench coat and casual clothes, trailed far behind, holding a telescope in his hand, just confirming that Naruto was within sensing range.
At this moment, he suddenly envied the old man's Telescope Technique.
It was really convenient.
On the road.
Kakashi explained the structure of the Land of Waves and the status of the Five Kage to Naruto and the others.
Just looking at the trio, it was clear.
Except for Sasuke, Naruto and Sakura simply didn't believe it.
The long-winded old man sitting in the Hokage building was a powerhouse above tens of thousands of ninjas in the ninja world? Couldn't tell at all!
After explaining the situation in the Land of Waves, Kakashi comforted the few Genin on their first outing mission: "Ma, ma... don't worry, this mission is C-rank, there won't be danger."
He didn't notice that Tazuna behind him nervously hid his expression under the hat brim.
They continued on their way.
After a long time, it began to get boring.
Naruto walked while frequently looking sideways.
Admiring his Sakura-chan.
Green trees shaded the surroundings, the grass was green, and the breeze and sunshine were just right.
The girl seemed to be shining.
Indeed, missions inside the village are not as good as missions outside the village!
Just when he was immersed in her charm and couldn't extricate himself.
The sound of breaking air approached rapidly!
Accompanied by the sound of tearing air and vibrating chains, two figures with covered faces appeared in front of them.
The comers were hostile!
In an instant, the gap between the three was reflected.
Sakura was still stunned in place. Even when the comers were close, she just realized something was wrong.
Pale with fear, her hands and feet became stiff.
Let alone resisting the enemy, it was hard to say if she could protect herself.
At the same time, with a rhythm as if synchronized.
Naruto and Sasuke bowed simultaneously in an instant!
Kunai in hand, eyes sharpened instantly. Like a conditioned reflex, they assumed defensive postures the moment the comers approached.
This was the instinctive reaction formed in countless sparring practices in the past.
