The reply comes

You don't expect the reply to come early but here it is, one of Tsunade's summon slug coming with the letter on its back. You unfurl the letter and read it.

Naruto the brat,

I received a formal petition from the Land of Wave. Apparently, the bridge builders, the merchants, and even that greedy rat Daichi, yes, his reputation sinks even here, signed a document stating that the village would literally collapse into the ocean if you left. They’ve requested a formal administrative oversight extension.

Your mission is officially extended for one year. Effective immediately. Stop whining about the paperwork. it’s good practice for when you’re older. Shut up and just accept it.

The Godaime Tsunade

p.s. There's certainly no offer to forgive my dept and there are no casino coupons offered to me to extend your tenure.

You reread the letter a few times and then look at the summon. As if knowing what you're thinking, the slug look away in embarassement.

Great. One year extension.
