Chapter 10: How could she be ?
Kakashi found himself torn between two distractions: the sleek black ponytail swaying gently with her every movement and the Konoha headband that accentuated the matching black ninja suit hugging her form perfectly. While the outfit concealed her completely, it still showcased her mature curves in a way that made it hard for him to look away. He couldn't decide whether to focus on her alluring appearance or the strong, commanding presence she exuded—each breath she took radiated confidence, and it sent a shiver down his spine.
How did an Uchiha become my instructor? he thought, confusion and frustration swirling within him like a storm.
One Day Earlier
Bam! Danzo slammed his hand on the table, the sharp crack reverberating through the dimly lit room as he processed the news about Kakashi's instructor. "Who is he being assigned to?" he snapped, his voice low and dangerously intense, a vein pulsing in his temple as he struggled to accept what he had just heard.
He knew that since Minato had not yet become a jōnin, Sarutobi couldn't allow Kakashi to join him, especially with his team on a mission in Iwagakure for the next six months.
The Root member shifted uneasily, beads of sweat forming on his brow. "Mikoto Uchiha, sir. She's leading Team 5."
Danzo's jaw clenched tightly in disbelief, his face contorting with rage. He had intended to keep Kakashi under his control, to mold him into a weapon for the Root organization. After all, who wouldn't want a genius who had become a genin at the tender age of five? The thought was maddening. Despite lacking a kekkei genkai, Kakashi had the potential to rise to the level of a shadow if properly trained.
His irritation over Kakashi's early graduation morphed into simmering rage. "Team 5? That pathetic bunch?" he spat, his eyes narrowing to slits. "What kind of training can he possibly receive there?"
He was all too familiar with Team 5, particularly its leader. How could he not know the team helmed by the daughter of the first elder of the Uchiha clan? Mikoto Uchiha, a jōnin, was at the helm of Team 5, which had recently suffered a tragedy. Danzo's thoughts raced back to the news he had received: just two weeks prior, one of their members, a civilian, had died during an ambush. The remaining members included a boy from the Inuzuka clan and another girl from his own clan—both of whom he deemed unworthy.
"Giving Kakashi to an Uchiha—great, what is Sarutobi thinking?" Danzo muttered under his breath, frustration mounting with each passing moment. "Kakashi deserves better. He should be under my command, not wasting his potential with a team like that."
He slammed his fist on the table again, sending papers flying, a scowl etched deeply into his features. The weight of his ambitions hung heavy in the air, and he could already feel the threads of control slipping away. I will not let this go unnoticed.
Returning to the Present
Kakashi's gaze lingered on Mikoto. Her face and body resembled her anime counterpart, but she had maintained an athletic appearance, free from the burdens of weight gain due to pregnancy in future. He couldn't help but admire how her outfit emphasized her figure while radiating an aura of strength.
Her status as a MILF in the Naruto fandom stood proudly alongside Tsunade and Kaguya. She would not lose to Kushina in popularity; in fact, she would likely gain even more recognition.
Even if boruto generation is add, she will not loose to others in body development.
He struggled to fathom why Sarutobi would allow him to join her team.
His thoughts were interrupted by the banter of his future teammates.
"So, what, I can do it too?" the boy said, a hint of challenge flickering in his eyes as he crossed his arms defiantly.
Brother, did I hurt your ego?
"But he's younger than you," the girl chimed in, tilting her head slightly as if to emphasize her point.
"That's what I'm talking about," the boy shot back, annoyance creeping into his voice.
"Sensei, isn't he too young to join us?" the boy added, looking to Mikoto for her response, a brow raised in curiosity.
Kakashi turned his gaze to her, anticipation bubbling within him as he waited to see how she would handle the situation.
We will find out during our mission, Mikoto responded though she too thought he is too young to join the team when she had first been informed of his assignment.
Yesterday
Entering the Hokage's office, she greeted him with a respectful, "Hokage-sama," her voice steady as she glanced at him, catching the flicker of exhaustion in his eyes.
She too didn't look down on him like any sensible person, being hokage proved his strength and status .
"Mikoto, how's your team now?" Hiruzen asked, his grandfatherly tone laced with genuine concern.
"Most of the injuries have healed. They can take missions now," she answered, her voice calm, though irritation simmered just beneath the surface.
Two weeks ago, her team had been ambushed by shinobis from the Cloud Village. Although there had been no jōnin among them, there were still elite chūnin. If she had been alone, she could have defeated them easily. But the safety of her team members had been her primary concern, and the weight of that responsibility crushed her.
Then what exactly she had feared happened—a boy had died under her watch. She was not emotional; no, it wasn't the first time she had seen death. She had witnessed it many times—her teammates, her squad leader, her family members. But what gnawed at her was her inability to fulfill her responsibility.
As the boy lost his breath, she too lost her patience. Killing the rest, she returned village without completing her mission as the other two too was gravely injured .

Author's pov
Correct me if there's a mistake :
Kakashi was between 14 to 15 during 9 tail attack.
Minato is 10 years older than Kakashi.
Itachi is 8 or 9 years younger than Kakashi.
Naruto is 14 to 15 year younger than Kakashi.
Kakashi become chunin at 6 and jonin at 12.
What age fukagu and mikoto should be during 9 tail arc ? Both are older than Minato.
I think atleast 28 for fukagu but approx around 31 or 32 since the year gap between him and Minato should not be 10.
I am talking mikoto as 18 or 19 now and fukagu as 21 what do you think?
