Saburo looked at Takeshi and Akio respectively, confused by how they wanted to fight Yamato. [color=415E79]“Huh? Why do you wish to fight Yamato-senpai? Isn't he your comrade? He is a Konoha shinobi just like you.”[/color] His words were cheerful and he said them with the same obviously fake smile as he had before. Another jump to the next branch, without even thinking. Unknowingly he picked up the pace, following with a rapid speed so he'd be able to keep up. To him, however, this wasn't a notably high speed. He was used to going faster during spec ops for the 11th.

[color=415E79]“Instead of hating him for his strength, you should be proud of him. He is very strong for a boy his age. According to his status report he is willing to die for a mission, or to save a comrade. I am sure he would do the same for [i]you[/i], Takeshi-kun, Akio-chan. If he didn't, that would be [i]highly[/i] unexpected given the data I have read about him.”[/color] he said, making it apparent he didn't understand just how social ties work within communities like Konoha. It appeared that within the 11th corps things were entirely different from normal Konoha standards. Saburo seemed completely oblivious to the fact that Yamato wasn't particularily nice to anyone, however the data [i]did[/i] suggest that Yamato had large feelings of honor and comradery even though it wouldn't seem like it. This is what he based his findings on, although these sources wouldn't be accesible by the others in his team most likely.

As Akio explained she was a distance fighter, Saburo spoke up again. [color=415E79]“I'm a medium distance fighter. I'll be able to support both of you. I am particularily skilled at ninjutsu, denoting an ability above average in the ninjutsu combat skillset, although I can hold my own in close combat, denoting an aptitude of decent skill levels in taijutsu. According to my status reports I am also able to provide a good distraction if you need me to. I'll sacrifice myself to bring this mission to a good end if we need it, denoting I am willing to run from the combat zones and lure the enemy away by pretending I have valuables on me! Furthermore I have a mission success rate of 89%. Akio-chan, Takeshi-kun, both your mission success rates are high as well. Akio-chan, if I remember correctly, yours is 92%, correct? Takeshi-kun, yours is 93%, correct?”[/color] His words were long and dragged on, longer than they needed to. He was trying to bring a point across but likely would only end up making it harder to understand. 

Within the hour they'd arrive within Kumogakure, where Saburo would slow down a bit and look at Takeshi. He landed on a branch and stayed there, to signal Takeshi that they'd need to take a short break now that they were in Kumogakure. Since Akio and Hideyoshi were teamed up in subgroups together, they would ofcourse keep moving. [color=415E79]“Takeshi-kun, we need a plan of approach. Since Hideyoshi-senpai said that he leaves you with me, I will assume he meant I will be the leader of our subgroup. Do you agree?”[/color] the Uchiha boy said, seemingly quite indifferent as to what the answer would be. He wouldn't mind if Takeshi wanted to lead. [color=415E79]“Regardless of that, Hideyoshi-senpai said that we need to question individuals. So let's ask someone where the nearest Yakuza hideout is, so we can ask them for the scroll.”[/color]

Yamato gave Aoi a short glance as she held out a candy bar, but he didn't take it. Instead he simply looked away waiting for others to arrive. As soon as Nobunaga arrived as well, Tsukiko appeared briefly and immediately took off. Yamato understood that she didn't want to waste any [i]more[/i] time so he quickly followed, being the first in line behind her. She explained the plan [i]fully[/i] this time. Yamato couldn't help but think that his little rant might've made her realize her error, however he couldn't be sure. Perhaps she had intended to brief them on the way, in which case she should've just said so from the begining. [color=9e0039]“Tsk.. stole my plan about the oasis, too, and plays it off as her own.”[/color] he muttered to himself, barely audible for the others. 

Being the first behind her he simply grabbed the map out of the air. He took a brief moment to look at the map, which was more detailed than the normal maps since it was only used to look at Sunagakure. There were accurate details on slopes, oasis' and dunes, although dunes were ever shifting. They couldn't rely on that info depending on when the map was made. It also featured several of the large rocks and cliffs that littered the desert. [color=9e0039]“Hm.”[/color] he said as he let go of the map again so that Aoi could grab it. Yamato wasn't in charge of the traps or the scouting, so he had little information to be gained from the map. The reason he took a look was just in case, in case something went wrong and they'd have to chase the Yakuza. He was slightly annoyed at not getting a task, but shut his mouth. They had argued enough already and wasted so much time. Besides, Tsukiko was the jonin, she had said. There must be some [i]masterplan[/i] in not letting him do anything.
