Naruto: Reborn as Konoha's Idol

Chapter 182: Chapter 182 The two arrived at the Hokage Office

”Let’s go quickly; don’t keep Tsunade waiting.”

The two arrived at the Hokage Office, where Tsunade was giving Kakashi his mission with a serious face.

”A Jonin from the Hidden Mist Village is coming to visit Konoha Village, and they’ve brought many gifts and cash. Kakashi, this difficult reception task is now entrusted to you. Kano, you will assist him.”

”Yes.”

Kano agreed readily. She just hadn’t expected Mei Terumī to take this blind date so seriously, even bringing so many things. She thought Mei would just show up, but she even brought plenty of gifts.

”Yes...”

Kakashi was a bit reluctant, but he couldn’t refuse a mission assigned by the Hokage.

Tsunade conveyed the specific details of the mission again: Mei Terumī, a Jonin of the Hidden Mist, would arrive tomorrow. Konoha Village would prepare accommodation for her, and after a short rest, the blind date activities would proceed.

The specific timing and arrangements for the blind date were all left to Kano. Kano had started preparing many days in advance; not just her, but many others were involved in the planning.

Yet Kakashi, the person involved, only found out now.

”Don’t worry, Kakashi-sensei. We’ve arranged everything for you. As long as you don’t mess up, I guarantee you’ll win her over.”

”Sigh, you’ve never been this proactive even for missions.”

”You better not let my and my friends’ hard work go to waste.”

”I wish you guys hadn’t worked so hard on this.”

”Actually, Naruto and Sasuke also participated in this operation. It’s a pity they’ve both left now, so I have to fulfill their ’dying wishes’ myself.”

”Don’t make it sound like they’re dead.”

Kano leaned against the wall, pulled something out of the shadows, and handed a book to Kakashi.

”What’s this?”

”This is Jiraiya-sensei’s new work, not yet published.”

”Oh?”

Kakashi was instantly interested. He was a guy who carried icha icha paradise around every day, and that erotica was also written by Jiraiya. Naturally, Kakashi really wanted to see Jiraiya’s new work.

”This is the method Naruto thought of for you. He’s also helping with your blind date. He’s giving you this book and hopes you’ll finish reading it.” (The specific method is in Chapter 84; friends who forgot can go back and check~)

”Then I’ll thank Naruto for this. I’ll finish reading this book. ’First Love in the Human World’ is quite a nice name.”

Kakashi was already squinting his eyes and grinning. If he weren’t still in the Hokage Office, he would have started reading it right now. He didn’t expect Naruto to be so thoughtful as to give him such a wonderful gift.

Since Naruto had prepared a gift for him, did Sasuke have one too?

”So, did Sasuke leave anything for me?”

”Of course.”

”Quick, take it out.”

”Don’t be in such a hurry, Kakashi-sensei. What Naruto prepared for you is the initial help, what Sasuke prepared is the final help, and I will provide help in the middle. This way, even if Team 7 isn’t together, we’re with you from start to finish.”

”This is the blood-boiling bond of our Team 7.”

The kids were really thoughtful. Even if just for the gifts, he had to take the blind date seriously. Naruto’s gift was already of this caliber; what kind of gift would the even smarter Sasuke have prepared?

Usually, Kakashi favored Sasuke more, so surely Sasuke would remember his kindness.

Kakashi began to look forward to Sasuke’s gift.
