One could not see that there were four Anbu members eating slices of strawberry cake.
"God dammit, Dog! Why are you hiding your face? I thought today was the day the great secret would be revealed!"
Cake was falling out of Dog's Anbu mask, and he seemed not to be listening while simply giving a thumbs up.

ELSEWHERE IN KONOHA
"Damn, Kakashi, you are still so hip and cool!"
A man wearing green suddenly shouted, scaring the civilians.
Fugaku, who was late getting home, witnessed this scene.
"Maito-san, I don't know what you are talking about, and I don't see Hatake here, but please stop scaring the villagers."
The Green Beast of Konoha gave a thumbs up.
"I respect the Uchiha Police, Uchiha-san. It was just a real moment of YOUTH! To me, that wasn't very youthful!"
Fugaku walked past Gai with a blank expression, who looked puzzled by his lack of reaction.
'Just go home, Fugaku. You have a beautiful wife and two kids. Just ignore him. Today was stressful enough. Maybe the Uchiha should really go to Kumogakure; they are muscleheads but more predictable.'

BACK TO THE SENJU COMPOUND
Dog was hanging off the rooftop, listening to a conversation. First, he heard Advisor Danzo.
"The mechanism I created for you called the 'Spider-Man Project' was a failure, but I developed a small gatling hook you can attach under your wrist, which uses a sealing technique with a spring and wheel mechanism. You can throw it and call it back. I advise against sudden movements like swinging until you are at least a genin."
"So you couldn't get it done in the end?"
The one speaking was Hiruzen.
"This is just a prototype that works, Hiruzen. I believe it is a viable piece of gear that could create a new path for some shinobi. My next steps involve using durable spider silk and making it smaller, like the art Tobirama gave me. What did YOU prepare for him?"
Kakashi started thinking with a rare smile about giving Pakkun one and see him swinging around the forest.
'Pakkun would look really cute!'
But the next thing he heard shocked him to the core.
"Full access to Forbidden techniques!"
Hiruzen was holding a large scroll, making a 'ta-da!' gesture.
"Have you lost your mind? I don't want to start with the life-threatening jutsus that shouldn't be given to a one-year-old child, Hiruzen!"
Danzo said angry.
"He is the grandson of that man, and he has us. He will probably learn all of them before turning ten." Hiruzen deflected by using Danzo's soft spot.
"Hmph!"
They turned to Tobirama, who was looking at the 'not-web-slinger' in his hand with astonishment.
Hiruzen, noticing this, became competitive and opened the scroll, pointing to the shadow clone jutsu.
"Look! You can make clones, Tobirama!"
"..."
Tobirama stared at Hiruzen with blank eyes, who was thinking, 'Why doesn't he like it? I thought everyone would love this.'
Finally, Tobirama spoke.
"Hiruzen."
"Yes?"
"I don't know how to read."
'Huh.'
Hiruzen looked past Tobirama out the window and heard a crow.
"Aho! Aho! Ahoka!"
...
Danzo just shook his head, turning his attention to Tobirama before he talked.
"You have teachers already, should I fire them? Are they incompetent?"
He doesn't expect him to be stupid or a slacker, his blood wouldn't let him.
"No, I just don't listen to them and go out."
'NANI!?!?'
"And they don't stop you?"
"They wouldn't dare"
'How!?'
Danzo looked down at Tobirama who wasn't even tall enough to reach his waist.
'Some people are gonna be fired tonight'
