"It seems unwise to name the team after its primary tools."

"Eh, Sasuke's more an ambush type, probably leaning effectively ninjutsu, and I'll mostly be spamming ninjutsu, so it's really misleadingly accurate."

"I suppose that is true."

"Good team names are hard though..."

"We could simply use our numerical designation."

"That's kind of boring though..."

"It is simple, and scales well. Many Konoha teams follow this formula."

"Guess so. And picking one ourselves isn't all that dramatic. We need to find an enemy with a sense of style for a proper one."

"That is how the Sannin earned their epithet."

"Not a very creative one, though."

"The Salamander had other strong points."

"Haven't heard much of the Sannin. Can you tell us about them, sensei?"

"Well, as the name implies, there were three of them. They trained under the Third Hokage before he was Hokage. They earned their name in the Second War, when they were the only ones to survive an attack by Hanzo the Salamander in a certain battle. Let's see... Tsunade pioneered modern medical ninjutsu. Jiraiya is known as the Sage of Mount Myoboku and is a prolific author. Orochimaru is a traitor to the village and we don't talk about him."

"Huh. ...We don't talk about a lot."

"That's true. The prevailing theory is that things are safer and calmer that way."

"Hmmmmm... Sasuke add that to the think about list."

"Sure."

"Already training your secretary? That's good. Always be prepared."

"Sasuke's a great secretary. Very detail oriented."

"I'm sure he is. Out of idle curiosity, what else is on your think about list?"

"Graduation age - Sasuke found an old thing talking about this proposal to get every team to have a medic, but it didn't work with the system we have, and Sasuke thinks graduation age is too low anyways so like adding on some Academy in a speciality is something to look at? Was my thinking. Cause it'd be dumb to just delay stuff...

"Also lots of - balance of what's taught? In the Academy.

"Also only taking on some of the Academy graduates, it's - I get that jounin are limited, but other teams could get a chuunin teacher, or just raise graduation requirements in the first place.

"I think there's some inefficiencies in the village government too but that's on think about because I need to learn more about politics before I can really make a to-do.

"And diplomacy stuff, need to learn diplomacy stuff.

"And chuunin promotions, I need to poke at that but the thing I was reading sounded like it doesn't work as well as it could?

"For stuff on the change list, that's like lying to the genin about graduation. The shinobi code is outdated... Oh! And the way we handle orphans, especially orphaned Academy students. I'd have had a lot more problems with like food if Sasuke didn't decide to act like he's my mom."

Kakashi looks mildly impressed.

"That's a big list."

"Yeah! There's also a lot of stuff inside of politics and I guess diplomacy."

"Just uh, do your favorite jounin instructor a favor and warn him before you start planning any coups."

"I'm planning on getting to Hokage the normal way."
