"Shin, I received a mission."

Kushina suddenly ran over with Mei Terumī while Shin was guiding Tsunade's Wood Release training.

"A mission? What kind of mission?" Shin asked, puzzled.

"To assassinate the Third Raikage. I took it from the black market. The client seems to be Iwagakure."

Kushina handed Shin a mission scroll.

Shin wasn't surprised that Kushina was taking missions from the black market. She had told him she wanted to earn money.

Although they weren't short on money, Kushina had suddenly decided she wanted to earn some. And since she wasn't going to get a job, the black market was her only option.

"How much is the reward?" Tsunade asked curiously.

"Quite a lot. Five hundred million ryō. Take a look." Shin handed the mission details to Tsunade.

"That's a lot! With that much money, I'll never have to worry about money again!"

Tsunade's eyes turned into ryō signs. Shin was speechless. She was already rich.

"I also saw a bounty on Mei, Issued by Kirigakure," Kushina said, glancing at Mei.

Mei was listed as a missing-nin with a fifty million Ryō bounty. That was surprisingly high.

Mei Terumī was startled and took a step back, looking at Kushina warily.

"You're not planning to collect my bounty, are you?"

"Not yet. Maybe later, if we need the money. Besides, your value might increase. I'm quite optimistic about your potential, Mei. You have a lot of room to grow." Kushina patted Mei's shoulder.

"....."

Mei twitched. If she could defeat Kushina, she'd do it right now.

"Mei, you're only worth fifty million. Any thoughts on that?" Shin teased.

"It's not fair!" Mei complained.

Setting the scroll aside, Shin turned back to Kushina.

"So, have you officially accepted this bounty on the Third Raikage?"

"Of course! It's a lot of money!" Kushina said, her eyes gleaming.

"The Third Raikage is no pushover. Otherwise, he wouldn't be worth quite this much. Don't forget you'll have to deal with the rest of Kumo's forces before you even get to him,"

Shin reminded her.

If Kushina recklessly attacked the Third Raikage, she might fail. It wasn't that he thought she couldn't defeat the Raikage, but the Raikage wasn't alone.

"I know, but I have a plan. Mikoto agreed to help me."

Kushina had asked Mikoto for help, and Mikoto hadn't refused.

"If Mikoto's going, then it should be fine."

With Mikoto and Kushina working together, they could handle almost anything, as long as they didn't encounter someone like Madara Uchiha or Hashirama Senju.

"Just to be safe, I'll come with you."

Shin said after some thought. He decided to go with them. He was bored staying in the Land of Whirlpools.

There was no one else there besides them. It was peaceful, but also boring.

"Great!" Kushina agreed immediately. She had wanted Shin to come along.

"Tsunade, what about you?"

"I'd like to go, but I'm focused on Wood Release right now. So I'll pass."

Tsunade was completely absorbed in mastering Wood Release. She didn't have time to go on a mission.

Only Shin, Kushina, and Mikoto would be leaving. Tsunade, Konan, and Mei would stay behind.

Konan and Mei had also wanted to go, but Tsunade had insisted Konan stay to cook. She didn't trust her own cooking, so she needed Konan.

As for Mei, Shin had told her to stay. She was too weak to be of any help.

"Mikoto, you know you don't have to come if you don't want to," Kushina said. Since Shin was going, Mikoto could stay.

"Actually, I'm mostly here to supervise someone." Mikoto said, glancing at Shin.

"!!"

Shin looked at Mikoto, puzzled. Who was she supervising? Her gaze made it clear she was referring to him. But what did she need to supervise him for?

"Last time you went out with Konan, you ended up doing something you shouldn't have." Mikoto said pointedly.

"This time I'm going with Kushina. What's the problem?"

"Oh, So you don't want me to come?"

Mikoto's gaze turned even more pointed, and Shin was speechless.

"No, it's great that you're coming with us!"

"I see. But Kushina looks disappointed. Probably because with me here, you two won't get alone time," Mikoto said, looking at Kushina, whose face had indeed fallen.

"Yeah, I am. If Mikoto didn't come, it would just be Shin and me."

Kushina regretted asking Mikoto to come. If she hadn't, she and Shin could have been alone.

"Too bad, I'm not going to let that happen."

"I knew it."

Kushina pouted. This was her mistake, but even if she hadn't asked, Mikoto would have come along anyway.

"Anyway, Kumo is at war with Konoha right now, so the Third Raikage's bound to be on the battlefield. That's where we're headed," Shin changed the subject.

"How did you know, Shin?" Kushina asked curiously.

"I don't often leave the Land of Whirlpools, but I still keep up with events in the Shinobi world."
