"Dog, how much longer are we going to go?" the purple haired leader of the storm squad whined on the leader of the inferno squad.

"Just two more hours" Dog said as if they hadn't been travelling for twelve hours straight. The purple haired kunoichi replied with a groan and they fell silent.

They arrived at the gates of Uzushio and were amazed at the height of the wall as well as the number of soilders on the walls and by the gate, they walked up to the gates only to have the sentries get into different stances with their weapons until a soilder walked up to them.

"State your names and your business" the bald headed soldier
Said.

"We are the ANBU escort for the Uzukage" The Dog masked ANBU said in a bored tone.

The sentry motioned to one of the soldiers and he disappeared and when he returned he nodded to the commander and he called for his men to stand down while the gate was being opened.

The seventeen men walked through the gates not knowing of the additional member on their team, they were welcome by three men in brown flak jackets with no shoulder guards with a spiral on their headbands.

"Welcome to Uzushio Dog san, bird san we are to show you to the Hokage" one of them said with a smile "please follow us" he said before turning his back to them, walking away.

Five minutes later they got to the administrative district and were showed to the Uzukage's office, when they walked in they were stopped by Katsuro who had unsheathed his pair of jian swords.

"Katsuro stand down" the Uzukage said from behind the war veteran and he sheathed his swords and made way for them to walk in.

"Welcome to Uzushiogakure, I know what your mission is so I would like you to relax tonight before heading out tomorrow morning, my trusted advisor will show you your guides, they will give you everything you need and they will show you your apartment. You can leave now"

They left the office with the man that almost attacked them and he called their guides for them before heading back to the room.

"Uzukage sama... " Katsuro started when he got back to the room but was interrupted by the leader.

"Yes I noticed Katsuro" he said knowing what his advisor was about to say.

"What should I do about it?" the advisor asked.

"I know you already have your men on that but for now they should only keep an eye on them" the Uzumaki said before sighing "I hope this is not what I think it is" he finished before going back to face any kage's worst enemy.

"Hokage sama!" the brown haired secretary of Sarutobi squealed again, it was as if it was simply impossible for her to speak in a normal tone.

"What is it?" he asked without stopping his work, he had learned to keep calm with his secretary after he summoned Enma the first day that she took the job, oh boy, did he get a nice telling off from Enma.

"The squads have gotten to their location and they will be heading back tomorrow so they should get here tomorrow night or in the next two days" she said screaming less.

The Hokage sighed softly before replying "Good, what about the other thing?".

"It has been taken care of sir" she said seeming calmer.

"And Naruto?" he asked again without looking up from his paper work.

"Actually..... Sir he pulled another prank" she answered his question trying not to giggle.

"What?! What did he do this time?" he asked finally looking at his secretary's face.

"He filled the ANBU water reservoirs with chakra enhanced, pink glow-in-the-dark paint and now, every one who has had their clothes washed or has taken a bath is glowing and it isn't washing off" she said finally giving in to her laughter.

"Have the reservoirs changed, the ANBU uniforms replaced, we will just have to wait for the paint on the men to fade off" he said sighing heavily as she walked out of his office "I am just too old for this shit"

Location: Uzukage's Mansion, Uzumaki district.
Time: 09:21 a.m.

"Uzukage sama" Katsuro called walking into the Uzukage kage's room.

"What is it?" Itsuki questioned in his night robe.

"Your suspicions were accurate, we found this" Katsuro replied handing a scroll that they pried from a dead messenger crow over to his superior.

The Uzukage quickly skimmed through the letter and his facial expression showed anger "Gather a few men, we are going there now" he said shaking with fury and went ahead to change his clothes.

They got to the apartment block that was given to the ANBUs and the ninjas Katsuro gathered that went to gather the leaf ninjas and when they returned, they were practically shoving the ANBU (some still had their masks on) to their leader.

"Who are you really and why are you here?" the aged Uzumaki asked. Within the minutes that Katsuro used to gather his men he had changed into a battle kimono that was black with red ends and the arms were wrapped in black bandages from his elbow to his wrists, a pair of black fingerless gloves with metal straps at the back bore the symbol of Uzushio, a pair of black baggy pants that was tied at the ankles with black bandages, a pair of black Shinobi sandals and the village's jounin flak jacket and a black, ankle long, armless robe with the inscription "Uzumaki" on the chest and he was holding a Katana with a wakizashi strapped to his back.

"What the fuck do you want, we already told you who we are!" the purple haired kunoichi now revealed as Anko Mitarashi replied almost yelling.

"Answer the question" Katsuro said with his hands on the hilt of his swords.

"We are Konoha ANBU and we were sent here to escort the Uzukage to Konoha, if you have any reason to distrust us I apologize" the masked silver haired guy said bowing his head before Anko could make a grave mistake.

"So why does one of you have orders to impersonate my servant and poison my daughter?" the Katana wielder asked getting furious.

They were gasps and murmurs of "what" coming from the black-ops agents before Dog spoke again "We haven't received such order sir, it has to be a mistake" he said bowing again.

Katsuro looked at the faces of the people in the group and he noticed a pale face boy who was reaching into his shoes for something "Then why do you have an extra" he said keeping his eyes on the pale faced boy.

"I am afraid I don't know what you mean" the silver haired man said again but before Katsuro could explain the pale faced boy jumped and attempted to stab one of the masked ninjas but his kunai was stopped by the others sword and every Uzushio ninja that was present surrounded him and his opponent grabbed his knife and showed it to Katsuro "Root" he said handing the blade over to his superior.

Katsuro neared the spy but before he could ask any questions the boy's eyes rolled to the back of his head and he crumpled to the floor foaming in his mouth.

"Well we should head out for our journey, and Dog san, sorry for the mix up" the Uzukage said bowing in apology to the ANBU.
