"Kushina, where are you going?"

Mikoto asked as Kushina headed out the door.

"Mikoto, I have something to discuss with Shin. You can go to bed," Kushina said, a slight tremor in her voice.

"Nope."

Mikoto blocked her path, shaking her head.

"Tsunade-sensei told me to keep an eye on you and make sure you don't sneak out at night, especially to Shin's room."

Kushina gritted her teeth. Tsunade was so mean! And Mikoto too!

In the end, Kushina couldn't escape Mikoto's watchful eye and had to return to her room, fuming.

The next morning, Shin woke up early, but someone was already up before him.

"Morning, Mikoto."

"Shin, you're awake! I'll go make breakfast."

"No, wait until Tsunade and Kushina wake up. Who knows when they'll grace us with their presence? They're both lazy."

"It's not wise to gossip about people behind their backs, especially when they're within earshot." Tsunade's voice was cold.

"Shin, did I just hear you call me lazy?" Kushina glared at him.

Shin was speechless. Had the sun risen in the west today? Why were they up so early?

"Ahem, I'm going to practice Kenjutsu. Can't let my skills get rusty. See you later."

Shin made a quick escape, using Yomotsu Hirasaka to teleport away before Tsunade could catch him.

He returned half an hour later for breakfast. Seeing Tsunade and Kushina's icy expressions, he decided to change the subject.

"Tsunade, should we go on a mission today?"

"It's up to you. If you want to go, we can. If not, I wouldn't mind taking a break."

Shin, Kushina, and Mikoto exchanged glances. Kushina and Mikoto looked at Shin expectantly.

It was his decision. If he wanted to go on a mission, they would.

Shin thought it over. "Can we take a B-rank mission?" he asked Tsunade.

C-rank missions rarely involved combat against ninja. Kushina and Mikoto needed to fight real Shinobi to gain experience.

He also needed to face stronger opponents to improve.

But finding opponents who could challenge him was difficult. He could kill elite Jōnin like they were nothing. Even a quasi-Kage would be a walk in the park. He needed Kage-level opponents.

A ten-year-old Kage? That would be a record. Shin didn't believe anyone his age was as strong as him. After all, he had cheats. Even the Sage of Six Paths' sons wouldn't be his match at this age.

"A B-rank mission? Impossible. The Sandaime won't allow it. The C-rank mission was already an exception."

Tsunade shook her head. They were Genin fresh out of the Academy. The C-rank mission was only approved because of her.

"If that's the case, we might as well stay in Konoha and train."

Shin decided to skip the missions. They didn't need the money; there was no point doing those pointless missions.

...

In the Root base, Danzō's face was dark with fury.

"You're saying Tsunade and those brats returned?"

"Yes, Danzō-sama. They completed their mission."

"What about Kato Dan? Any news?" Danzō was livid. He had sent such a strong force, yet Tsunade had returned, and they hadn't captured that Uzumaki Shin brat.

"No news. They haven't returned."

Danzō's anger subsided, replaced by a frown. He had sent them to kill Tsunade. She was back, but they weren't. And there was no news? Something must have happened.

"Investigate. And don't let Sarutobi find out," Danzō ordered the Root Member.

After the Member left, Danzō slammed his fist on the table, his anger boiling over.

Three elite Jōnin and three regular Jōnin, gone without a trace. How could he not be furious?

"Sarutobi Hiruzen, I hope you're not involved in this." Danzō's eyes narrowed. He suspected Hiruzen had something to do with this.

If it were just Tsunade, he was confident she would be dead. That was why he suspected Hiruzen's involvement.

Perhaps his actions had been discovered.

He didn't suspect Shin. After all, Shin was only ten. Who would think a child could be that strong?

So, he blamed Hiruzen for interfering with his plans.

Shin, of course, had no idea about Danzō's suspicions. If he knew, he would have laughed.

Let Danzō and Hiruzen fight amongst themselves. Neither of them were good people.

Shin and his team were training, with Tsunade overseeing them.

Well, she was overseeing Kushina and Mikoto. She couldn't train Shin; he was stronger than her.

"Wind Style: Rasenshuriken!"

Shin threw the Rasenshuriken. It struck the wooden target and exploded, obliterating the target and leaving a massive crater in the ground. The Chakra storm raged for a while.

"Finally perfected it."

Shin was satisfied. He had created thousands of Shadow Clones to research and refine the Rasenshuriken, and now it was complete.

The Rasenshuriken was a Jutsu Naruto had developed from the Rasengan. It was powerful, but it had drawbacks.

It was unstable, required close-range combat, and had the side effect of damaging the user's arm. It was classified as an S-rank forbidden Jutsu.

But those were the drawbacks of the incomplete version. In the original story, Naruto had overcome those weaknesses after mastering Sage Mode.

Shin didn't have Sage Mode, but that didn't stop him from perfecting the Rasenshuriken.

The key to the Rasenshuriken was stability. With enough control, the Jutsu wouldn't harm the user.

Shin's Rasenshuriken caught Tsunade's attention.

"What was that Jutsu?" she asked, stunned.

"I developed it. It's a combination of the Rasengan and Wind Release. Not bad, huh?" Shin grinned.

Tsunade was speechless. This Jutsu was S-rank level, and Shin had developed it? She felt a pang of jealousy. This kid was a monster! How could common Shinobi like her compete?
