-Naruto POV-
I was in Tsunade's office, waiting for her to show up. I was once again playing poker with her guards. We hear the door handle turning and they returned to their places.

She walked in and looked around. "There's that feeling again... what were you doing in here?" She asked.

I shrugged. "No clue what you're talking about." I said.

She rolled her eyes. "Whatever. Why are you here?" She asked.

"I wanted to know if you have any information on the Susuka clan." I asked.

She sighed as she sat at her desk. "Not much at all. Apparently they run a village somewhere in the land of Iron and keep to themselves. The village is very well hidden." She said.

I nodded. "Then I'll need a tracker, someone who's could handle an assault from Kumo." I said.

She nodded. "I would recommend Tsume then. She's a very high ranking tracker, she's had run in's with Kumo before, and she used to be Anbu." She said.

I nodded. "Could you call for her?" I asked.

She nodded. "Already done." She said.

"Next I'll need a good front line fighter and someone who's good at detecting threats." I said.

"What about a hyuga or an Uchiha?" She asked.

I closed my eyes and mulled it over. "Which one would you suggest?" I asked.

"Personally, I think an Uchiha would be a better choice. Most Uchiha are very well rounds and built for battle." She said.

I nodded. "What about Sasuki?" I asked.

She crossed her arms and sighed. "I don't know, she just got back from five years with Orochimaru." She said.

"I think she can handle it." I said.

She nodded. "One of my Anbu is going to get her. Will you need a fourth again?" She asked.

I closed my eyes and thought it over. "No. Kumo knows what will happen if they send more people after us, plus there's no way Killer B is fully recovered yet. We should be good with just three, plus Sasuki's pretty strong now." I said.

She nodded. "They're on their way." She said.

I nodded. "Got it." I said.

Soon Sasuki entered through the window. "You called Hokage-Sama?" She asked.

"Oh, she's faster too." I said.

She nodded. "Much faster." She said as she leaned against the window.

Tsunade nodded. "Good. I'm told most people can't keep up with Naruto on missions." She said.

I laughed. "That's a good one. It's not most people, it's everyone." I said cockily.

I caught a speeding pencil and sent it right back, matching her speed. "And Tsume? Is she fast enough to keep up?" I asked.

The door opened and Kiba's sister walked in with her dogs at her heals. "Unfortunately not right now. Mom's pretty sick. I can take her place though, I'm just as strong and nearly as good at tracking." She said.
