Asahi watched Obito's reaction, unsure of what to say. He understood that the best way to prevent Obito from falling into darkness was to protect Rin. 

As long as Rin was safe, Obito wouldn't care about anything else.

"Obito, don't worry. I will make sure to protect them. It's a promise between us men," Minato said with a smile, looking at Obito seriously.

"Alright, Kushina, I'll leave the bento for you guys. I need to go and prepare for the mission in the afternoon," Minato added, arranging with Obito.

"Sure, Minato. Be careful on your mission," Kushina said, taking the bento from Minato.

"Don't worry, Kushina. I'll be careful. The Hokage has already entrusted me with that jutsu, and this mission is a good opportunity to practice it," Minato reassured her. 

"Oh, by the way, it seems like the recent graduates are being sent out on missions. I guess the Hokage has plans for you guys as well."

"Can I go on a mission outside the village too?" Kushina asked eagerly, and even Obito and Kurenai's eyes lit up at the prospect of going on a mission.

"Maybe. It depends on the Hokage's decision," Minato replied, scratching his head with uncertainty.

.....

"I'll be going now. Goodbye, Lord Asahi. Goodbye, Kushina. Goodbye, everyone."

"Goodbye."

As Minato left, he left behind a figure filled with a carefree spirit. The technique he mentioned? Flying Thunder God, perhaps? 

Watching Minato's departing figure, everyone, except Asahi, probably couldn't guess that another legend in Konoha was about to be born.

The yellow flash of Konoha, Minato Namikaze.

"Master, are we really going on a mission?"

Obito asked eagerly, his heart secretly hoping for a chance to be with Rin.

Asahi shook his head. He wasn't Kakashi Hatake, and he couldn't possibly know the specific arrangements for Obito and the others.

"I don't know, but Kushina, you should have gained the trust of the higher-ups in Konoha by now. The chances of going on a mission are high for you."

"But I can't assign missions in Konoha. So, if they are sending you guys on a mission, it might be you leading Obito and Kurenai," Asahi guessed.

Hearing Asahi's guess, Kushina and the others were already excited, especially Kushina. For Obito and Kurenai, it was mainly because they hadn't been on a mission outside the village and were looking forward to it.

However, Kushina was different. As a survivor of Uzushio Country, she had ventured outside the village a lot during her childhood. Still, since becoming the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, she hadn't left the village once.

After all these years, she was eager to experience the outside world again.

Seeing the excited expressions of the group, except for Shisui, the outsider, Asahi chuckled softly.

I hope you can still have these expressions after stepping onto the battlefield.

"We've trained all morning; let's eat something quickly."

Shaking off the scattered thoughts in her mind, Kushina spoke to everyone.

With that, Kushina opened the bento that Minato had brought.

Looking at the bento prepared by Minato, Asahi couldn't help but internally criticize. Why were the bento in the Naruto world always rice balls?

Was this thing so delicious?

At this moment, Asahi felt the need to carry a set of cookware with him.

Otherwise, with the training intensity of his disciples, eating rice balls every day, the body might not last a week.

Although complaining, they still had to eat. After all, he had been busy all morning, and to be honest, he was feeling a bit hungry.

After a simple meal, it seemed like the news of a possible mission or the addictive nature of their training had stimulated them.

Without much rest, they hurriedly resumed their training.

Watching them, Asahi was a bit worried about Shisui's body. A four-year-old child mingling in a group of people with 'legal adult'—wouldn't it be too tiring for him?

Fortunately, their movements weren't too proficient yet. Except for Kushina, the others mainly practiced familiar movements, so it wasn't too exhausting. Asahi didn't intervene.

Since the disciples were working so hard, Asahi, as their master, couldn't afford to be lazy.

He casually took out a piece of jade and started making sensory tokens.

Time passed in this harmonious atmosphere, but unfortunately, it didn't last until the end of the training.

Because Minato and Asahi's speculations had indeed come true.

This time, as a Jonin, Kushina wasn't directly summoned to the Hokage's office like other high-ranking ninjas. 

Perhaps considering Asahi's relationship, Hiruzen Sarutobi, after consulting with Minato and confirming the positions of Asahi and Kushina, personally came to the Uchiha clan's training ground assigned to Shisui.

Out of respect for Asahi, Hiruzen Sarutobi didn't even use his telescopic jutsu.

As soon as he approached the training ground, the physical techniques practiced by Kushina and the others immediately caught Hiruzen Sarutobi's eyes.

Although it was easy to see that they were newly practicing novices, and their movements were still awkward, Hiruzen Sarutobi was no ordinary person. He was known as the strongest Hokage in history, although the title had a lot of ambiguity.

Still, the moniker of the Professor was well deserved.

Hiruzen Sarutobi, a master of all non-kekkei genkai techniques known in Konoha, could effortlessly discern the subtleties of the physical techniques practiced by the group.

Moreover, due to Kushina's faster progress, Hiruzen Sarutobi could see even more clues.

It seemed like by channeling chakra through a specific pathway in the body, an extraordinarily powerful force could be unleashed?

Hiruzen Sarutobi muttered quietly in his heart, admitting that he was envious.

Although he didn't understand the specifics of this physical technique, it was evident that it was an incredibly refined and robust form.

A physical technique that could rival any in Konoha's heritage! Hiruzen Sarutobi even boldly speculated that it might be comparable to the Gentle Fist of the Hyuga clan.

After all, both employed special chakra manipulation techniques.

Moreover, considering Asahi's status and strength, the physical techniques he could impart to his disciples wouldn't be simple and commonplace.

Ah, such a remarkable technique, but unfortunately, there was no way to incorporate it into Konoha's Scroll of Seals. What a pity~
