Naruto : Hidden Cloud

A recovered from his daze the fastest, he shouldn't have gotten into a daze in the first place, but this was just too shocking.

Not only was the cold and loner Yugito blushing in embarrassment, she was also asking if she could bring her 4 year old brother on an S class mission.

Yugito rarely made personal requests, being a more quiet person, so a change this big shocked all of them.

"Ahem, Yugito, this mission is of great importance, can you tell me why you want to bring your brother for this?"

"As far as I know, he has just started his ninja training a week ago."

A spoke with a cough, he wanted to hear her out at least.

Yugito also coughed and collected herself, then began listing her reasons.

"Sato did start his training a week ago, but he's improving very fast."

"This mission is as safe as it could get within the enemy lines, I want him to gain field experience from this."

Yugito had now gone back to her cold self, she kept listing the advantages of bringing Sato along.

"I assure you he won't compromise the mission, he can help create chaos within Konoha."

"He's a smart kid, he might be able to pick out information from clan kids we wouldn't be able to approach otherwise."

A was silent and seriously thinking about this possibility, those were indeed some good points.

Mabui on the side had a thinking look on her face before appearing to have agreed with Yugito.

While Killer B frantically started scribbling in his pocket notebook.

No doubt writing a rap from some inspiration he just found.

Yugito stood still and had a calm face, but internally she hoped Sato could come along.

This was pretty safe for an S class mission, with her around nobody can even touch Sato.

Most importantly, she won't have to stay away from her brother.

After considering Yugito's request for a while longer, A made a decision.

"If your brother comes along he will be your responsibility."

"While this mission is safe, if some problems do arise, you don't have to choose between mission and your brother, he will be your top priority."

"But do try to make sure the mission is completed."

Yugito's heart became warm, this was why every Cloud Shinobi respected the Raikage.

A knew how ninja's thought and refused to put his own people in trouble if there was a choice.

His father, The third Raikage preferred to die from exhaustion while fighting an entire hidden village, just so his men could survive.

He didn't have to do that, he could have acted like the third Hokage and frantically throw children at the battlefield, while himself staying behind in the village, barking orders.

The fourth might not be as strong as his father, but he had a similar personality charm.

This decision made everyone else smile too, Mabui immediately started making changes to the mission roster while B gave a big smile to A.

He stylishly spun his notebook and put it in his pocket.

Using a finger to adjust his sunglasses he began his performance, much to A's helplessness.

"Sato, Sato, with a dream so wide, He'll prove his worth on this shinobi ride~"

"Bakayaro! Konoyao! Don't underestimate, he's gonna shine, it's gonna be great!"

"Yeeeah!!"

Patting his forehead A a nodded speechlessly, but he knew what his brother was trying to express.

B was supporting Yugito while telling him not to underestimate her brother.

This managed to make him curious, at first he thought Yugito had a similar bond with Sato as he does with B, and that's why she wanted to bring him along.

But now he was wondering how much the boy had improved within a week, she did mention his improvement so it should be great.

"Do you have your brother's Ninja info card Yugito?"

"Or did you not make one yet?"

A directly asked for the information card if it was available.

Yugito was a bit confused but understood he must be trying to see Sato's level of skill.

This is an important mission after all.

"I have it Raikage sama."

Taking out a ninja info card from her pocket, she handed it to the Raikage.

B quickly came behind the Raikage and bended over to see from the side.

A didn't let that bother him and watched the card.

As soon as A read this he instantly categorised Sato as a genius.

After seeing this ninja info card, he knew they had found a talent.

B had a similar idea too, he was pretty darn impressed with Yugito's brother.

"Sato with a chakra control so precise, His power and finesse, they're beyond just nice~"

B seriously judged from the side, Chunin level chakra control at the age of four was outstanding.

A meanwhile had much more of a broader vison than B, his eyes were fixed on the Nintaijustu field.

"Chakra enhanced strength? He figured that out on his own?"

"How is his use compared to that woman Tsunade?"

A asked while seriously looking at Yugito, this was something which he needed to know.

Chakra enhanced strength, this wasn't something specific to Tsunade, Itachi in his light novel figured it out on his own.

This was an Itachi who didn't go to the academy yet, didn't know anything about ninjutsu, and had to create this technique on the spot to break a massive boulder coming his family's way.

Meanwhile his mother, who was a Jonin was unable to react to the same attack because of it's sheer speed

The concept of chakra enhanced strength wasn't difficult to understand at all, many Ninja's could do it.

What makes Tsunade special is that she can use it in the middle of a heated battle.

Chakra enhanced strength was heavily dependent on chakra control, almost no Ninja can control chakra so precisely while fighting.

So when A saw chunin level chakra control and chakra enhanced strength in a four year old boy, his first thought was Sato had the possibility of doing what Tsunade does.

It doesn't matter if he can do it now or not, this possibility itself was something A was willing to invest in.
