«10» THE MIZUKAGE'S SUCCESSOR

—

"MIST..." Inomi muttered under her breath, as she shoved her kunai on her bag. She deactivated her jutsu, breaking the mint shield apart.

The mist was harmless but she can feel chakra around her. Her instincts were right, it was a jutsu. She turned to her students and nodded at them.

The three turned to her with a confused expression.

She rolled her eyes and groaned. "Let's go back with the others, We don't want them to worry." She walked forward. "The nod was to make sure that we keep a low profile."

The group deadpanned in realization. "Right! Everyone follow me!" Boruto started. He choked as he felt someone pull the collar of his jacket.

"You, stay back. I'm the one who's in charge here." Inomi scoffed and slightly pushed him towards the others. "You've done enough trouble for today."

"Sheesh, It's unusual to see her this strict.." Boruto mumbled while scratching the back of his neck. Denki smiled at him while pushing his glasses up. "I'm sure she's just worried about us, right Iwabe?"

Iwabe grunted in annoyance as he followed the Yamanaka behind.

"Is everyone alright?" The Girl asked the class.

Shikadai noticed their arrival and smirked at her.

"Great job Inomi-Sensei, you found those idiots." He chuckled, while shoving his hands to his pockets. Inomi nodded at him, as she scowled at Iwabe beside her.

"Don't go running off somewhere far next time. You said it yourself that this place is dangerous." She quietly scolded him.

Iwabe scoffed, turning his head away from her.

She grew an irk mark on her forehead while crossing her arms. "Students are pain in the ass sometimes..."

Agreed. Toneri nodded inside of her head, doing the same thing as her. You're acting like your old self again.

No need to remind me. Inomi hummed silently, as she responded to him. You got used to it, so don't tell me that it's hard to adjust.

Alright. I'm sorry.

You better be.

"Sorry about that, Inomi-San. Some people in this town don't like outsiders coming around." Kagura apologized to the Yamanaka. Her eyes blinked a couple of times, before she waved her hands off.

Kagura can feel the warm sensation his cheeks, shaking his head immediately. Inomi placed her hands on her hips. "It's fine, I'm sure that this usually happens everyday... Don't take accountability—"

"There's another guy who look pretty strong stepped in and stopped him." Boruto interrupted the girl, stepping in front of her as his eyes twitched in annoyance.

The ashy blonde boy arched a brow. "...Looked strong?"

"Hey Hey.. Nevermind that! Where are we going next?" ChoCho asked the tall boy, with a smile on her face.

"Oh.. I'm going to take you to meet someone." He explained, turning to the Akimichi.

Inomi's lips curved up into a small smile. Her negativity washed out as she heard the boy's words.

"Seems fine to me." She mumbled while stretching her arm.

"Is he handsome?" ChoCho wondered, sparkle surrounding her eyes. Inomi's eye twitched while chuckling.
