When we arrived at Konoha and made our report. I then gave the Anbu masks of the deceased Ninjas to the Hokage.

Jiji then told us that the 2 Anbus that were sent as our backup was Mouse and Boar.

My mood then plummets from the revelation and I wanted to vent some more anger but I was still at the Hokage Tower.

After finis.h.i.+ng our report, I then went straight to the Secret Training Ground at the Uchiha Compound to destroy some target dummies.

While I was punching a dummy into oblivion, I heard a soft rustle at the far right side of the training ground and I then vanished from my spot and appeared behind the culprit.

"Kyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!" A cute yell echoed at the Secret Training Ground when I confronted the culprit.

"Who are you?" I asked.

"Please don't kill me. I just went to the forest to have a walk then I heard loud noises from this direction. I then went to investigate but." The culprit wasn't able to finish her sentence because she was so nervous.

The culprit was a girl around my age. She has long brown hair that is tied to a ponytail while having long bangs on her face that covers her onyx eyes.

"Wait a minute, you seem familiar." She said while I can also feel a familiar vibes from her.

"You look like Izumi nee, are you perhaps related to her?" I asked.

"You know Izumi nee? And you also call her Nee? I'm her cousin." She said.

"Sorry for startling you, my name is Inuzuka Daisuke." I said.

"It's okay, my name is Uchiha Itsumi. Why are you training here near the old Uchiha Compound?" She asked.

"Well, this training ground was introduced to me by one of your clansmen a few years ago and I've been training here ever since. How about you? Why were you wondering here?" I said.

"Well, something unfortunate happened and I wanted to vent some frustrations. That is why I tried finding a faraway place so no one can hear my yells." She said.

"Well, I also had the same reason why I'm here. Would you like to join me in my dummy bullying?" I said with a smile.

She then smiled back at me and nodded her head.

We then destroyed multiple dummies across the training ground. She kicked and punched the dummies while she occasionally uses Fire Jutsu to incinerate some of them. Meanwhile, I just punched the dummies hard and didn't use any chakra in it, turning my fist bloodied from the attacks.

After a while of genin level extreme destruction, we then stopped and took a break since we can tell that it was already nearing sunset.

"Satisfied?" I asked.

"Satisfied!" She answered with a huge smile on her face.

Normally, Uchiha's are broody and arrogant persons. No matter what gender, Uchiha's tend to have the same demeanor except for Aniki, Izumi nee and Itachi Nii's mother Mikoto. Right now, I can also add another rare case, Itsumi.

"I need to get back home Itsumi since I went straight here after reporting at the Hokage tower. I want to have a nice shower." I said.

"Hihihi, I also went and did the same after cla.s.s. I also want to have a nice relaxing bath when I go home. Do you want to walk together, since the Inuzuka and the Uchiha Compound is located in the same direction?" She said while giggling, while I nodded with a smile for confirmation.

We then went on our way home and she asked me if we could train there every now and then. I said that I usually train there during weekends when I don't have anything to do during the afternoon and she agreed to meet every weekend at the Secret Training Ground.

Hanging out with her reminded me of my usual days with s.h.i.+sui Aniki.

She has the same personality and they came from the same clan so I was feeling nostalgic hanging out with her. That is why I agreed on training with her there during weekends.

After we went on our separate ways on a crossroad, I then went back home and took a relaxing shower before eating dinner with my family and ending the day.

...........................

After a few days, during my training with Kakas.h.i.+ and Guy, a messenger bird arrived and had a summon letter from the Hokage. It seems that I'm being summoned at the Hokage office.

"I just got back home. Is this another mission?" I said with a sigh.

"Well, you don't have a choice but to go Daisuke." Kakas.h.i.+ said.

I then said goodbye to Guy and Kakas.h.i.+. I then went to the Hokage Tower but not before changing to my Anbu outfit since it was stated in the letter that this is an Anbu summon.

When I arrived at the office, there were 3 other people in the room.

It was Neko, and 3 other new Anbu's that I don't know.

"Wolf, you're finally here. You know Neko right? Well, the other 3 are Ox, Crow, and Monkey respectively. I a.s.sign the 4 of you on a long S rank mission with Neko's team. This will be a joint leaders.h.i.+p mission between Wolf and Neko. I a.s.sign the 2 of you to lead this mission. This mission might take at least a year or 2 to finish, the mission is to infiltrate Kirigakure and help the rebellion. The mission was sent to us by the leader of the rebellion Mei Terumi. The reward for helping them successfully is a big amount of money, the perfect Jinchuriki program of the 4th Mizukage and an alliance with them if Mei succeeds to overthrow the 4th Mizukage. The mission will start after 3 days so prepare everything that you need in advance. Also, Ox, Crow, and Monkey, the 3 of you will be under Wolf's leaders.h.i.+p. That will be all, all of you are now dismiss except Wolf." Hiruzen said while all of us received our mission scroll.

"Ox, Crow, and Monkey, I will meet you after an hour at Training Ground 0." I said while all 3 of them nodded and disappeared with Neko.

"You can take your mask off now Wolf." Hiruzen said.

"Why are you sending me on a long term mission Jiji? Does my mom know about it? Also, I thought that you want me to take the incoming Chunin Exam" I said.

"Yes Daisuke, I've already told Tsume and had been chewed by her for a long time. I'm sending you on this mission because I want you to investigate something that only you can know about. It is about Danzo. s.h.i.+sui and Jiraiya sent an intel that says that they found Danzo's spy in Kiri. I need you to apprehend the spy and take him back here, dead or alive." He said.

"Will s.h.i.+sui Aniki join us in this mission?" I asked.

"No, he is currently at k.u.mo, doing the same thing. I'm sorry for giving you this mission Daisuke but you're the only one I trust the most to do this mission." He said.

We then discussed some other specifics of the mission and after talking with him, I then went to the Anbu HQ to meet my new team as their Anbu Captain.
