Naruto: Long Live Hokage's

Chapter 181: Increasing Difficulty

In the Senju Clan, Masahiko was disappointed after he did not get the new one he was looking for.

It has been almost a year since Nawaki and Mikoto got married, but Mikoto still hasn't shown any signs of strangeness, and the “monster” that Masahiko was hoping for isn't visible.

“Itachi and Sasuke were born to the real Mikoto, who proved that she should be fine. That's not Nawaki... right?” Masahiko.

“Great grandfather, this is your tea.” This is Mikoto. After she married Nawaki, she also started calling him Grandfather.

Masahiko nodded, then glanced at Nawaki who was playing with Nagato and Konan, and felt that the scene was somewhat familiar.

“At first, it was the same with me and Hashirama.” Mito's voice coming from the side shocked Masahiko.

“Nawaki and Hashirama are really similar, regardless of their appearance or character.” Masahiko sighed, and Mito nodded with a smile.

The quiet days did not last long as Masahiko ended the New Year again in Konoha. It was Konoha's ninth year.

As soon as the New Year passed, Masahiko took her three children and found Hiruzen, but the results were not very satisfactory.

“No Class-A Mission?” Masahiko looked annoyed.

Hiruzen smiled bitterly, “Older Masahiko, New Year has just passed, we only received a few missions, none of them are Class-A.” Missions

“Then do you have from last year?”

Hiruzen shook his head, “Mission is now less than the number of ninjas.”

Masahiko. Konoha is much stronger than the original.

“Why don't you wait two more months?” ask Hiruzen.

Masahiko hesitated then shook his head. After two months, it would be time for Kakashi to sign up, and he was afraid of missing it. Although he could use the Shadow Clone, he always felt it was more troublesome than the main body, so he was unwilling to use it if it was not needed.

“How about Anbu? For example, investigating another ninja village?”

Hiruzen surprised, “Ya, but there are several missions. But a task like this is not suitable.”.

“It's okay, you won't mind as long as I lead the team right?”

Hiruzen smiled bitterly, and wanted to say: That's because you are the leader, I don't feel comfortable.

In the end, Masahiko took on an investigative mission for the three children. It is rumored that Kusagakure has been in contact with Sungakure recently.

“Looks like I didn't teach you how to detect and collect information, right?” Masahiko realizes on the way to Kusagakure with three children.

“It looks like no, Sensei.” Nagato retaliated

“Yeah, it is not too late to learn, listen to you guys.” Masahiko just wants to say something, but realizes that he is also not good at investigating and gathering information.

“Yeah, I also never thought I would need it ..”

Masahiko glanced at the three children who seemed eager to learn, and sighed helplessly, he could not tell them now that he did not know either, right?

“OK, you have to find a patrol team, then attack them, use transformation techniques to change their appearance, then join and investigate.” Masahiko began to spout words indiscriminately, and coming up with this plan, he would not be far away so that he could protect them, and yet nothing would happen.

Nagato and Konan continued to nod again and again, but fifteen-year-old Kushina did not believe a single word of it. He rolled his eyes silently and whispered, “So we have to rely on ourselves.”

Masahiko heard it, feeling very embarrassed, but he still pretended not to hear it.

Along the way Masahiko constantly taught them various things, and when they arrived somewhere about five kilometers away from Kusagakure. Masahiko glanced at the surrounding environment, then confessed, “More from here is up to you, I go first.” Then he drowned underground.

The three of them glanced at each other, then big sister Kushina waved her hand, “Follow me and be careful.”

The three of them quickly hid their appearance and moved forward. About three kilometers later, Kushina ordered them to hide and search for a patrol team.

Konna pulled up her sleeve, “No, I felt something was wrong with Sensei's approach.

Under the ground, Masahiko's mouth twitched slightly.

Kushina glanced at Konan, was amazed by how smart she was, and wildly observed the patrol team.

“They seem to bring something!”

Disciple Masahiko also observed ama when they heard this, Nagato then hesitated and said, “This looks exactly like the box we sent last time by sea.”

Kushina was surprised at first, then she looked happy.

“Oh! So Kusagakure and Sunagakure got in touch, because the latter resold the blast label? Mission finished buddy, we can go back!”

Nagato and Kushina hesitated, nodded at each other, then prepared to leave.

Masahiko underground sighed. He did not expect such a coincidence. How can this be a Class-A mission, it's more like Class-D.

“No, these people learned nothing, we can't go back like this. I have to make it harder for them.”

Masahiko concentrated, and a rock floated up and hit one of the Kusagakure ninja patrols in the forehead.

“WHO?!”

When he shouted, the tree children became nervous and immediately exposed themselves.

“Kushina sisters, how did they find us?”

“I don't know, let's run!”

Masahiko smiled, who said he couldn't be Anbu, he really did a good job. He then followed them. As for the Kusagakure ninja who are chasing them are one top ninja, three middle ninjas, and six bottom ninjas.

“This line ...” Masahiko nodded, “They should be balanced, I do not need to intervene.”

Sure enough, the three children were still trapped. Besides, they're young. Although their Ninjutsu abilities were excellent, their physical strength was still not as good as that of an adult ninja.

With that, a fierce battle erupted, as Masahiko expected, the strength of both sides was similar.

Ninja Kuagakure was in no hurry to get involved. After all, their village was near, and the reserves were about to arrive, so they even tried to buy time by talking.

“These three little boys, it looks like they are from Uzumaki, why are they trying to sneak in?”

To Masahiko's relief, the three children noticed how the others tried to buy time, and did not talk nonsense with them.

“Fire Release: Great Fire Destruction!” Nagato used this large-scale fire release attack very skillfully.

Kushina shows her sister material, and defeats the top level ninja.

Although Nagato did not have any actual combat experience, he was still much stronger than any Kusagakure Shinobi, and with Konan's help, he quickly won.

The fight lasted for ten minutes. Kusagakure's Shinobi had been exterminated, and even when the three children were injured, Masahiko fought back and did not move.

However the people inside the village saw what was happening outside, and sent some ninjas, who quickly approached.

Masahiko frowned underground, and whispered, “It's almost done.”

Attentively, the last four ninjas of Kusagakure were crushed on the ground.

Masahiko's team defeated the patrol team. The three children froze for a moment, then quickly reacted and fled towards Konoha. Masahiko was also responsible for adding a little chaos to the ninja who approached the scene and adding some “” roadblock on the road.

In the end, the task that Masahiko forcibly increased his difficulty, this time was successfully completed by his three children.
