Naruto's POV

We finally made it to the village, "Alright, you guys, let's grab some food!" Pery Sage chimed in with a sly grin plastered on his face, and I let out a sigh.

Why did Kira have to witness this awkward moment?

Suddenly, I heard Kira giggle beside me. I stole a glance at her; her cheeks were tinged with a delicate blush, making her look absolutely stunning. I reached for her hand, and she accepted it willingly. My mind couldn't help but wander to the glove she's wearing and the mystery surrounding her situation.

As I held her hand a bit tighter, she halted, looking at me with a hint of worry in her eyes.

"What's the matter? Are you alright?" She inquired as I nodded in response. "Just lost in thought, nothing serious," I reassured her. Although she seemed to accept my explanation, there was a flicker of doubt in her eyes, indicating she wasn't entirely convinced.

We then heard a woman shouting, "Another one!" The woman's voice echoed through the air. "Tsunade-sama! That's probably enough!" another woman's voice interjected.

I noticed Pervy Sage's smirk. Hold on – did she just say Tsunade?!

"Alright, folks, seems like we've found her. Follow my lead, but keep quiet about our mission," Pery Sage instructed before striding into the local bar.

Me and Kira trailed behind. "Tsunade! You're still the same! Always sloshed!" Pervy Sage blurted out, taking a seat in front of her, while Kira and I settled beside him.

Tsunade glanced at us, then let out a sigh. "Jiraiya, what brings you here, and who are these kids?" she inquired, her tone tinged with curiosity.

"You callin' us kids?!" I retorted in frustration, irritated by being labeled a kid at 13.

"Of course, you and the little lass next to you," she quipped with a smirk, causing a vein to pop on my forehead.

"Little?!" I began before Kira intervened. "That's not very becoming of a legendary Sannin like yourself, is it?" Kira remarked softly, though I sensed the mischief behind her words.

Tsunade chuckled and then turned to Kira. "I like you! What's your name?" she inquired after composing herself. "I'm Uchida Kira," Kira replied with a smile. "And you?" Tsunade grandma, asked me indifferently.

I snorted. "I'm Uzumaki Naruto! The future Hokage, believe it!" I declared proudly, causing her eyes to widen in surprise.

"Uzumaki Naruto...? The one with the—-" she was interrupted by Pery Sage. "Yes, that's him," he responded cautiously.

"Tsunade! I've been searching everywhere for you, and I had a feeling you'd be here," Pery Sage said, causing Tsunade to glance at him with a smirk.

Suddenly, the waiter arrived and placed food on the table for me and Kira, and another for Pery Sage.
