In Konoha, at the start, Hinata was given the Tenseigan.

Sasuke even awakened his Sharingan prematurely after being frightened by his own invincible super fireball while still at the Ninja Academy.

Although he was still as useless as in the original story during the night of the massacre of his clan, with "all his clan members dying", he angrily developed a single tomoe Sharingan.

However, at this point, the evolution of his eyes still surpassed the state of his eyes at the same time in the original work.

As for Naruto...

"Kakashi-sensei, this time we must take on a challenging mission."

"It's best not to take on any more cat-catching quests, that fat cat. It's scratched my face so many times."

"Natsuki-kun and the others have already defeated the monsters and saved Konoha. We're still playing house here."

As soon as Naruto was mentioned, his loud voice echoed into the Hokage's office.

"With skin so thick, are you afraid of getting scratched?"

Sakura Haruno, as usual, retorted and then agreed with Naruto's statement: "However, D-rank missions are really annoying. I don't want to do things like pulling weeds anymore."

The next moment, Team 7, led by Kakashi, also stepped into the Hokage's office.

"Natsuki-kun!"

Upon seeing Natsuki, Sakura Haruno and the others' eyes lit up, and they greeted him happily.

"Natsuki-kun, I heard you defeated the Flame Beast that even the Hokage couldn't defeat? Is that true?"

Naruto was the first to step forward, his face full of excitement as he asked.

"Get lost! Don't ask about things that everyone already knows."

PIA~~

Sakura Haruno kicked Naruto, sending him flying and slamming him hard against the wall.

She then flashed in front of Natsuki, her eyes sparkling as she asked, "Natsuki-kun, are you alright? My family has some family-inherited ointment. If you're hurt anywhere, you must tell me."

As she spoke, she took Xia Mu's right hand and made a praying gesture.

Her expression was one of adoration, like a little girl.

Inside, however, she was screaming, "Hehe, I grabbed my crush's hand!" She had a perfectly legitimate excuse; Sasuke wouldn't say anything, right?

As expected, Natsuki-kun became more and more handsome as he grew up, even more handsome than Sasuke. He was also incredibly strong and a hero of Konoha.

perfect!

Holding Xia Mu's slender fingers, he couldn't help but slide them a couple of times.

Rub with oil!

hateful.

Hinata, standing behind her, seemed to have a red glint in her Byakugan eyes as she slightly raised her hand, palm facing Sakura Haruno.

PIA!

The next moment, Sakura Haruno was also violently flung against the wall next to the Hokage.

He slid down with Naruto.

He accidentally knocked off the Third Hokage's straw hat.

A bright bald head was exposed.

The entire room fell silent instantly.

Hiruzen Sarutobi's face darkened, and veins bulged on his forehead.

Just as his composure was about to crumble and he roared out.

A report came from the secret service outside the door.

Tazna is here!

The Third Hokage had no choice but to suppress his anger, his expression turning from sunny to cloudy, and he once again put on a friendly smile.

At the same time, he quickly picked up the straw hat and put it on.

The next moment, a short, stout old man, half-drunk, stepped in.

"Good morning, Hokage-sama."

"Could it be this bunch of short, stout guys who came to escort me back to the Land of Waves?"

Tazuna pointed to Naruto, who had just gotten up and was acting like a brat.

"Who are you calling a shorty? You old geezer. Don't flatter yourself, who's going to protect you?"

Naruto shouted loudly, ready to rush over and teach him a lesson.

Unfortunately, Kakashi grabbed his head halfway through, preventing him from advancing any further.

"Not all of them, it was Kurenai's Eighth Squad that took on the mission."

The Third Hokage raised his hand and gave a brief introduction to Team 8, led by Kurenai Yuhi.

"Tch, aren't they just a bunch of kids?"

"Won't I, an old man, have to take care of them on the way?"

Tazner said, feigning dissatisfaction.

Because only he knew that on the way back, they would definitely encounter intercepting ninjas sent by Gato.

Can these kids who just graduated from the ninja academy really protect him?

Fortunately, there was a Jonin teacher, so it was barely watchable.

"Don't worry, Class 8 has a top student, and its overall strength is the best among the same batch."

Hiruzen Sarutobi expressed high praise for Team 8:

"Moreover, it's just a C-rank mission, so there shouldn't be any dangers that could threaten a ninja."

These words made Naruto's eyes widen: "What? Natsuki-kun and the others can take on C-rank missions?"

"Grandpa Hokage, can we also take on a C-rank mission?"

Naruto asked with a simple face, pointing at Tazuna at the same time: "Of course, I don't want this kind of mission to protect old men."

"You bastard, who are you pointing at, kid? It's obvious you've only just been weaned, how could you possibly protect anyone?"

Tazuna couldn't help but angrily confront Naruto. Reeking of alcohol, the two short, stocky men started arguing loudly.

Then, looking at the composed Xia Mu and the others, he said:

"Look at you, the same batch of graduates, how come there's such a big difference? They're much more mature than you."

As soon as he finished speaking, Xia Mu came out:

"Let's set off! My dead eye has foreseen that this path is fraught with evil."

... ..... 0

"It is time for me to purify them."

Wearing an eye patch, Natsuki glanced at Tazuna before stepping out of the Hokage's office.

"Hi! Purification!"

Hinata clenched her fists as if to encourage everyone, and took two quick steps to follow Natsuki out.

"I wonder if monsters will appear."

Kiba Inuzuka followed.

"Woof!!!"

Akamaru, perched atop his head, echoed in agreement.

"What kind of ninjas are these? Are they a bunch of lunatics?"

Tazna's expression stiffened, and he began to worry about the upcoming itinerary.

You get what you pay for.

Are these the only people you can recruit for a C-level mission?

Damn it, this reward was the entire village's savings. They'd used it all to build the bridge.

Fortunately, there was a normal Jonin. Although she was a woman, a woman who could become a Jonin must have extraordinary abilities.

"Mr. Tazuna, please rest assured, although they may act a bit silly at times, you'll see when they encounter danger that they are indeed excellent ninjas."

"Then, Hokage-sama, let's set off."

After greeting the Third Hokage, Kurenai Yuhi led the mission members out.

"I'm so envious, I want to do C-level missions too."

Naruto looked at Team 8 as they left, his eyes filled with envy.

"Alright, since you all want to take on a more difficult task, then let me pick one for you."

Hiruzen Sarutobi opened the scroll of the great mission.

In no time, they found one.
