Still don't own Naruto

Chapter 31: To be a Sensei

Chunin exams were fast approaching, being held in Konoha the following month for the first time since the invasion three years ago. This explained why Konohamaru and his team were currently upset so early in the morning.

"Stupid Ebisu sensei, thinks we aren't ready, he has to let me compete how else will I catch up to that rival of mine" Konohamaru said brooding about the fact that Naruto was a chunin only six months after graduating.

"He just doesn't think where ready yet, as a jonnin he would know best, it is disappointing though" Udon said trying to calm his over eager friend.

"Yes Konohamaru, you might think your ready but the chunin exams are supposed to be really dangerous and Ebisu sensei is just looking out for us" Moegi reasoned

"Yeah but he said he would enter us if we prove ourselves ready and he gave us a month to do it, so lets get to training, and I know the perfect sensei to help us" the young monkey said plotting a way into the exams, he would not give up until they were over. "Let's go guys, time to hunt us a sensei"

Udon and Mogei shrugged in confusion but followed after there fearless leader.

(Elsewhere in Konoha)

Kakashi had knocked on the door to Naruto's apartment so he could begin his training. But he had been shocked to find it completely empty, worried by this development the infamous copy ninja decided to head straight for the Hokage to find out if she knew where he was.

Tsunade was sitting in her office relaxing, but like so many other times in the past few weeks when ever the busty Hokage had time to relax she was interrupted, mostly due to the antics of her favorite blond chunin.

Just as the Hokage decided it was such a nice morning she would take a nap her door busted open and in came a worried looking Kakashi. "What the hell, Kakashi" she yelled not wanting to give away just how big a fright he gave her when he charged into the room.

"Hokage-sama Naruto is missing" he said urgently.

"WHAT!" this time her anger was real if the Akatsuki somehow took him last night she would tear the whole land of fire and any of her allies country's to pieces trying to find him.

"I was just at his apartment and its completely empty, it's like he packed up and left" Kakashi spoke quickly so they could set up a search party.

Tsunade relaxed immediately "Don't worry about it" she said offhandedly.

"What do you mean 'don't worry about it' Naruto is missing surely we should set up a search party at least" Kakashi said even more frantic now as it seemed to him that the Hokage didn't care that his sensei's son was missing.

"I said don't worry about it because he moved to a new place, here ill give you the address" she said before taking out some paper and handing it to Kakashi.

The copy ninja took the piece of paper and blushed in embarrassment. "Thank you Hokage-sama, and I'm sorry to disturb your nap" he said quickly before leaving the office before Tsunade could reply.

(Iwa)

In a large office a small man with a large off color nose several times too large for his face was fighting the very same foe that all kage must face, paperwork. "I have fought in three shinobi wars but I cant find a way to get rid of this, kami I bet that old monkey knew a way, every time I saw him or went to Konoha he was so damn relaxed" Oonoki sighed. The door opened suddenly and a young Girl with dark brown hair ran in holding a book.
