Meanwhile, Mizuko visited the Yamanaka Clan Compound and saw her childhood friend Minako Yamanaka (14), who is set to joined the Foundation even though she is Chunin-ranked.

" Hey Minako." Mizuko said.

" Mizuko! Long time no see!" Minako said. " I was about to joined the Foundation even though you are a new head administrator and a member of Senju Clan, one of the founders of the Hidden Leaf Village! I was a huge fan of Senju Clan Fan Club!"

Mizuko deadpanned.

" Did you just say ' Senju Clan Fan Club'?" Mizuko asked.

" Uncle Inoichi urged me to read it about the history of the Senju Clan." Minako said. " It was published four years ago. Rumors said that Jiraiya-sensei is the one who published it."

" It's not Jiraiya-sensei." Mizuko said. " My beloved auntie, Aunt Tsunade Senju."

Minako deadpanned.

" I didn't know that she is your aunt." Minako said.

" My parents and Auntie Tsunade were very close friends even though they are from the same clan." Mizuko said. " Senju Clan Fan Club is Tsunade's first ever journal book. Jiraiya-sensei isn't aware of that."

" Lady Tsunade hadn't told me about that. Not even Uncle Inoichi and super cousin Ino." Minako said.

" But that journal book already have Auntie Tsunade's signature in it." Mizuko said.

" Why not talked to Lady Tsunade?" Minako asked.

" Hell no." Mizuko said. " She is out of town. Always busy with gambling."

" What about you?" Minako said. " Have you experienced gambling?"

" Once back in the nearby town. I was able to won the poker battle in the local casino but one at the time." Mizuko said. " I don't always gambling."

Later, Mizuko and Minako were already in the locker room preparing their ANBU gears ready.

" We're all set." Mizuko said. " Where is Daichiro and Ryosuke?"

" They already prepared their ANBU gears." Minako said. " Along with Fū and Torune. Even though Torune is often visited Lord Shibi and his son Shino sometime during day off whike Fū is visiting me and Ino often."

" Well, here goes on a mission as Black Operative Special Tactical Unit." Mizuko said. " We have some criminals to hunt down."

Later, Fū, Torune, Ryosuke and Daichiro interrupted.

" We hate to interrupted." Fū said. " Lord Third is calling us for a mission."

" Excellent Fū." Mizuko said.

Ryosuke, Torune and Daichiro were sweatdropped.

" She acted like a real ANBU captain." Torune said. " Do you two agree?"

" I agree." Ryosuke said.

" Me too." Daichiro said. " Just to make sure your poisonous beetle aren't gonna attacked us."

Torune deadpanned.

" Idiot." Torune said. " I already handling with some poisonous beetles by care."
