Chapter 30: Ashina Uzumaki Template!!
"A 6-year-old girl who possesses two Kekkei Genkai is missing. Her name is Mei Terumi."
Jiraiya addressed the group. "We have to rescue Mei before the Mist Village tracks her down."
"According to intel, she's in this area. We'll deploy three teams to search for her."
Yoruichi's eyes widened. "Three teams? Are we using the newest academy graduates?"
Jiraiya nodded.
"But they've never been on a mission…"
"This will be their first test," Jiraiya said sternly. "It's a transition from genin to chunin-level duties."
"The mission commander is you, Yoruichi."
"Me?"
Jiraiya nodded again. "Yes. As a member of the Senju clan, this responsibility naturally falls to you."
Yoruichi hesitated. "What about Minato?"
"Minato and I have another mission." Jiraiya patted Yoruichi's shoulder. "Relax. You won't face any jonin-level threats. We'll handle those. Your team's job is to search the forest for Mei Terumi."
"Understood."
Yoruichi accepted the task, though uncertainty lingered. As he planned the mission, a familiar voice echoed in his mind.
[Ding! Congratulations, Host. Your strength has reached Kage-level!]
Yoruichi's thoughts froze. He quickly reviewed his stats.
[Name: Yoruichi]
[Strength: Kage]
[Rank: Special Jonin]
[Character Card: SSS-level Hashirama Senju (50% fused)]
[Kekkei Genkai: God-tier Wood Release (from character card)]
[Techniques: Flying Raijin Lv3, Edo Tensei Lv3, Chidori Lv3, Yin Seal Lv3, Multiple others at max level]
He also noticed an unopened supreme reward.
[Ding! Supreme Reward Opened. Obtained: S-class Character Card - Ashina Uzumaki.]
"Uzumaki Ashina?" Yoruichi's eyes widened. The legendary Uzumaki clan leader and sealing master was now part of his arsenal.
He couldn't use the card yet; the Hashirama fusion wasn't complete. But once it was, he'd unlock mastery over Uzumaki sealing techniques.

The next morning, Yoruichi arrived at the academy. Two chunin teachers assigned to the mission greeted him.
"Yoruichi, you're here," Mikoto Uchiha said warmly.
Yoruichi blinked. Mikoto? A chunin teacher for this mission? It made sense, though; she was skilled, especially in training Itachi and Sasuke in shuriken techniques.
The other teacher, Haruno Akira, also greeted him respectfully. "It's an honor, Yoruichi-sensei."
Yoruichi chuckled. "Akira-sensei, do you have a daughter named Sakura?"
Akira's face turned red. "I'm not even married yet! Don't start rumors!"
"Sorry, my bad." Yoruichi laughed.
They moved to the rendezvous point near the forest's edge.
Yoruichi surveyed the genin teams. His group consisted of Kakashi, Rin, and Obito. Another team led by Mikoto included Guy, Ebisu, and Genma.
Rin greeted them politely. "Good morning, Yoruichi-sensei, Mikoto-sensei, Akira-sensei!"
Mikoto smiled, patting her head. "Rin, you're so polite. It's good to see you."
Kakashi, ever the tsundere, scoffed. "Obito's late again. Typical."
Yoruichi smirked. "It's fine. We'll wait."
As they waited, Yoruichi handed out special seals to Mikoto and Akira.
"These are my custom protection tags. Keep them on you."
The two looked at the seals, curious but grateful.

Ten minutes later, Mikoto and Akira departed with their teams, leaving Yoruichi with Kakashi, Rin, and an absent Obito.
Suddenly, a figure tumbled out of the woods and hit the ground hard.
It was Obito, late as usual.
Kakashi crouched down, shaking his head. "You're late, Obito."
"I—"
"Save it." Yoruichi waved his hand. "Let's move out. We're heading to the Land of Water. Mist Village is still far away."
