A clang of metal could be heard. "Crow, why is it bad to be famous as an ANBU. Wouldn't that put more fear into the enemy?" Naruto asked.
The two were fighting with their tantos. After a few more clashes, Crow responded, "Naruto, if the enemy ever knew that we were there in the first place, unless that was apart of the mission itself, it means we did a poor job, just like your sword skills."
Naruto, as he wasn't currently wearing his mask, rather a blindfold, grimaced at the insult. "Why do I have to do this blindfolded again?" he asked.
"Simple, when an enemy uses a flash seal, you still need to be able to put up some defense, not that you could do that anyway. Perhaps one day, you will be able to ward off the attack from a screaming civilian while blindfolded," Crow replied.
The two continued their practice before a man in a white cloak walked up, who wore a dog mask. "Crow, Naruto. Why are you shirking off your guard duty for the Fire Shadow," he asked calmly.
The two were silent for a moment, before Crow responded to Dog, "Well SIr, we really meant to, but we have recently developed a hypoallergenic reaction to papyrus. Since the Office is filled with it, we decided it would be healthiest to avoid the room at all cost."
Naruto had a look of confusion to the answer. Dog then spoke, "Well, I hope you bring lots of butterbur, because you will be very exposed to it." and then left.
Naruto looked in the general direction of Crow. "What the hell are you talking about."
Crow sighed, before responding, "Naruto, paper is made from papyrus. Butterbur is a medicine for treating allergic reactions. Paperwork is made of papyrus, so that means we are allergic to paperwork. However, your simple mind can simply not think on that level."
Crow then walked away, presumably to the tower. "Oh," was Naruto's dignified response. He then followed Crow. Presumably to the tower.
