Mission Time : Kakashi-sensei is too much !

Over the next month, the members of Team 7 diligently engaged in the process of familiarizing themselves with one another, honing their teamwork, and mastering essential skills. The dynamic among the different teams varied,each with its unique set of personalities and strengths. 

Throughout their month of D-rank missions, Team 7 faced a plethora of tasks designed to help them gain experience, foster teamwork, and interact with clients from various backgrounds. Despite the simplicity and low-risk nature of D-rank missions, Kakashi's continuous intervention and alterations to mission parameters added an unexpected layer of challenge and unpredictability.

Their first mission, a seemingly straightforward escort for a noble within the village, took an unexpected turn when Kakashi, with a sly grin, revealed a mid-mission change of the noble's identity.Kakashi kidnapping the man away,he made them escort his own shadow clone,only to reveal his identity when they were close to delivering their escort. The team in panic started their search for the noble,who was with Kakashi drinking tea in a fancy tea shop . 

In a mission to retrieve a valuable artifact for a wealthy merchant turned into a head-scratching puzzle. Kakashi, in his typical enigmatic fashion, altered the artifact's location midway through the mission,giving them only half a map and some hints, challenging the team's problem-solving skills and transforming the mission into an unexpected test of their adaptability.

During a mission to find and return a missing pet to a Rich woman, Kakashi decided to introduce an unforeseen element of canine chaos. As the team successfully located the pet, Kakashi gleefully unleashed a pack of friendly village dogs, turning a simple retrieval mission into a whimsical dog-chassing adventure through the village streets,having to protect the cat and run from the angry looking dogs.

Babysitting, a supposedly straightforward mission, took an entertaining twist as Kakashi, ever mischievous, decided to stir things up. Just as the babies were peacefully napping, he orchestrated an unexpected wake-up call, leaving Team 7 to manage cranky infants while maintaining their composure.

Some days later, the training ground witnessed the presence of Team 7, seated on the ground in anticipation, facing their Jounin sensei, Kakashi, who stood before them, ready to impart a lesson. 

With a calm demeanor, he explained that, now that they were becoming more acquainted with the mission system, it was time to delve into the intricacies of team formation. The trio—Naruto, Sasuke, and Sakura—focused intently on his words, eager to absorb the knowledge that would enhance their collaborative skills.

"Alright, team. As you progress, it's crucial to understand that successful missions often hinge on how well you can coordinate and complement each other's abilities. That's where team formation comes into play."

Naruto, scratching his head "Formation, sensei? Like, standing in a line or something?"

Kakashi, with a small smile: "Not quite, Naruto. Team formation involves strategic positioning, communication, and a deep understanding of each other's strengths and weaknesses. It's about maximizing efficiency and ensuring you cover all bases during a mission."

To illustrate the concept, Kakashi smoothly retrieved a scroll from his ninja pocket. However, the trio's expressions quickly shifted to one of disappointment as they anticipated another mission with peculiar conditions. Kakashi, sensing their collective discontent, couldn't help but sweat-drop at their reaction. In an attempt to lighten the mood, he remarked on their lack of enthusiasm, eliciting a chorus of complaints from the trio.

Kakashi: "I see the excitement is overwhelming today. Well, let's hear it. What's bothering you? "

Naruto, crossing his arms,a grimace on his face "Well, Kakashi-sensei, how about a mission without all the weird surprises? Is that too much to ask?"

Sasuke, showing an annoyed expression, "I thought we were here to learn team formations, not dodge random obstacles you throw at us in your quest to kill your boredom "

Sakura, with a deadpan face "Yeah, like, can't we have a normal mission for once?"

Kakashi, rubbing the back of his head: "Ah, well, I suppose my teaching methods might be a bit... unorthodox. Let's hear it then. Lay out all the grievances."

"unorthodox ? You mean Sadistic ! "Yelled the trio.

As Naruto, Sasuke, and Sakura took turns voicing their concerns, the tales included the unleashed chaos of dogs during a retrieval mission, a subtle genjutsu that led Naruto astray on his escort for the noble man, and the unexpected wake-up call during babysitting. Kakashi, with an embarrassed cough, acknowledged their grievances, realizing that perhaps his unique teaching methods had been a bit too much for their liking.

Kakashi told them that this time, they would learn to apply some basic formations they had learned about in the academy. Turning to Sakura, he tasked her with listing the fundamental shinobi formations, and she began to explain.

"In the academy, we delved into how basic strategic formations play a pivotal role in shaping the outcome of battles. First, there's the Delta Formation, a protective triangle used when safeguarding a central figure. The skilled leader takes the forefront to counter potential threats. For situations where enemies remain undetected, we have the Square Formation. In this defensive stance, the team arranges itself in a square, providing complete coverage from all angles and preparing for potential underground or aerial attacks."

Sakura continued with enthusiasm, "When offense is the priority, the Sword Formation steps forward. It features a lead attacker supported by synchronized strikes, aiming for a decisive one-hit critical blow. On the defensive side, there's the Shield Formation, emphasizing Protective Jutsu and utilizing Earth Release techniques to reinforce a protective shield. Each formation showcases the adaptability and prowess of shinobi teams, with choices influenced by mission requirements and the unique abilities of the team members."

Pausing for a moment, Sakura added, "These formations can be employed in various situations—whether it's protecting a client, shielding team members, allowing the medic time to heal the wounded, or creating an opportunity for a member to escape and deliver sensitive information back to the village."

Kakashi, showing an appreciative smile, praised Sakura.

"Excellent ! "

Naruto, standing beside her, was already looking confused, with imaginary swords, shields, and squares appearing above him, earning a bemused sweat-drop from Kakashi. Sakura, noticing Naruto's confusion, shot him an exasperated look, while Sasuke, looking at Naruto with disdain, labeled him an idiot.

"Brain dead idiot "

Naruto responded with an insult,only to promptly get bonked on the head by an irate Sakura. 

"Teme-- " 

"Stop it ! "

Kakashi sighed, deciding it was time to unveil the mission details. He explained that their task was to deliver a scroll to an outpost near the training ground in Konoha. Sakura, ever the inquisitive one, couldn't help but question why a seemingly distant delivery was classified as a D-rank mission.

 "Sensei, why is it a D-rank mission if it's so far away?"

Kakashi, with a sly expression: "Ah, good question, Sakura. The outpost is indeed a bit of a distance, but there's no need to worry. It's well within Konoha's borders, and there's no risk of foreign enemy attacks."

As Kakashi spoke, a sudden chill seemed to permeate the air, and the trio exchanged uneasy glances. The subtle shift in Kakashi's expression hinted at the likelihood of something amiss with the mission. Sensing their apprehension, Kakashi couldn't help but chuckle.

"Don't worry, Team 7. It's a good opportunity for you to practice the formations we just discussed. Just stay vigilant, and remember, adaptability is the key."

Naruto, muttering to himself "Adaptability, huh? More like expecting the most twisted things with this guy."

Sasuke, smirking "It doesn't matter anyone,I wont fail,and you better not drag me down,Idiot "

"WHY YOU TEME…." only for sakura to yell at him 

"NARUTO,SHUT UP ! "

As Sasuke, Sakura, and Naruto vanished into the distance, Kakashi remained in the clearing, seemingly engrossed in his book. Suddenly, he turned his head to the side, addressing someone unseen.

"You can appear now; they are gone."

"Kakashi-senpai."

From the shadows emerged a Chuunin, Narisawa. He snapped into a salute, a sign of respect for his renowned senpai. Kakashi, acknowledging him with a casual nod, addressed Narisawa by name and swiftly delved into the mission details.

"Narisawa, your task is to intervene and slow down those kids. Make sure they face some challenges. It's a good chance for them to practice what they've learned."

Narisawa, with a hesitant smile "Understood, Kakashi-senpai. But wouldn't it be more appropriate to send genin, considering..."

Kakashi, cutting him off "Don't underestimate Team 7. They may be genin, but they're not your average ones. You might be in for a surprise."

Narisawa, nodding seriously "I'll keep that in mind, Kakashi-senpai. I'll do my best."

With a salute, Narisawa disappeared in a swirl of leaves, leaving Kakashi to his reading. The Jounin leaned against a tree, contemplating the unfolding events. Little did Team 7 know that their seemingly routine mission was about to take an unexpected turn, courtesy of their ever-enigmatic sensei.
