Chapter 16 – Emergency in Konoha! The Pervert Ninja Within Our Grasp!

"What the?" shouted Naruto incredulously, smacking into twigs. "What's the big deal? I don't even get time to bathe in my glorious victory!"

"Ai, Naruto – this is an emergency call from the Hokage herself."

"Wha...Ero-sennin!"

"There's the gate," said Kakashi.

The three ninja jumped down from the trees and headed towards the gate to Konoha. It was heavily guarded by several shinobi teams; they could hear loud yelling and bustling from inside the village.

"Izumo, Kotetsu…what's this chaos?" asked Kakashi.

Two ninja guarding the gate waved back and opened the gate slightly.

"You'll see when you get inside, Kakashi-san."

"Don't forget to go straight to the Hokage."

Kakashi patted Kotetsu on the back and zoomed off to Tsunade's office, Naruto and Jiraiya in tow.

A few minutes later…

Tsunade slammed her fists onto the desk, breaking it in half.

Oh great, more furniture fixing for those two, thought Naruto.

"As you can see," she seethed. 'The whole damn village is in an uproar. I know you've all seen the damage he caused…"

"What damage?" Naruto asked.

"THE WRITING INSIDE MY OFFICE!"

Tsunade pointed angrily behind her. Nasty messages were written in ink all over the office walls.

"Oh…hehe, sorrry Granny-"

"SHUT UP!"

Naruto gulped. His mind wandered off to one particularly crudely writen message:

For a goOd time, call the SLUg laDy

-the pervert NinJa

Naruto nodded his head absentmindedly, wondering what Tsunade was yelling about. Suddenly, she stopped.

"So you DO think this is a total riot?" she roared accusingly.

"S-sorry Granny-"

Tsunade turned to him, smiling.

"That ink is fresh, Naruto…that means the pervert ninja is still within Konoha…now get your ass out there and find him…before I punch the hell out of you!" She tossed him outside the office and slammed the door violently.
