What to expect?
Chapter 1 of Naruto: Konoha's Story ends with Kakashi and Guy waiting at the gates of the Leaf Village as we see Mirai (Naruto's assigned bodyguard) gear up and head out. The two veteran shinobi were finally taking a vacation and were off to a hot spring.
The upcoming chapter will feature their journey to the hot spring with Mirai being super vigilant. The reason being that Kakashi was the Sixth Hokage and she expected him to be jumped at any moment. Nonetheless, they do make it to the hot spring. it seems that Guy and Kakashi have been assigned a covert mission as well, something we may learn about in Chapter 2.
What happened in Naruto: Konoha's Story chapter 1?
Naruto: Konoha's Story chapter 1 introduced viewers to a Genin-level Mirai Sarutobi. While on a mission, she locates the cat for which a missing report has been filed. She also encounters Mezu the Assassin, the criminal from the Bingo Book, who detects her presence and confronts her before deciding to let her go.
But seeing that she knows his identity, he decides that silencing her would be the wiser option. Being a Genin, Mirai did not stand a chance against him and his group. However, she manages to hold them off long enough for Shikamaru and Kakashi to arrive. The two shinobi swiftly dispose off the criminals while Shikamaru acknowledges Mirai and her bravery.
