Tsunade started eliminating her choices one by one.

"Naruto is out since he's already big enough. Besides that I want to use this on someone who won't make trouble for the village when this whole thing is over. I don't think I should give it to Kakashi either. He's already able to hold his own against even bigger giants when his mind is clear. Giving him the scroll would be overkill. None of the smaller giants will work either since they won't get much bigger. Knowing Sasori he isn't just waiting around for us to attack him. He's no doubt strengthening his own forces and we need to do the same. Shikamaru is smart, but too lazy. There's no guarantee he'll do any work after this is over if he's the biggest giant around the village. Sasuke is too volatile and Gaara isn't from the village. That leaves Iruka. Hmm...That's not a bad idea. He's reliable, he's responsible, and he's proven he can hold his own against even the Akatsuki at his current size. If he's even larger he should prove quite useful. Alright. Iruka it is then."

All of this went through Tsunade's mind as she watched the team before her. Having finally decided she walked up to the group and said, "Alright! Before you guys leave I have something for you."

She held up the scroll and continued, "After studying the scroll we stole from Sasori and the dust we obtained from Konohamaru's scarf I've managed to make a growth scroll of my own. For this mission, I've decided to give it to one of you."

Instantly Naruto shouted out, "Oooh! Granny Tsunade! Pick me! I want the scroll!"

Kakashi smacked Naruto on the head and said, "Be quiet Naruto. You can get big enough already."

"There's no such thing as enough when it comes to training!" Naruto shouted. "I want it so bad! Come on, please!"

Tsunade shook her head and said, "Sorry Naruto but I agree with Kakashi. You're both already good enough at your current size. I need to give this to someone who can be trusted not to make trouble after this whole thing is over and isn't already too big."

Some of the smaller giants had hopeful looks on their faces but Tsunade shook her head and said, "But they have to already have a pretty good size. At least over twenty feet."

Naruto crossed his arms and looked around, "But who's that then?"

Tsunade walked up to Iruka and said, "Here Iruka. I know we can trust you the most."

Iruka looked surprised but smiled and said, "Of course Lady Hokage. You can count on me."

Naruto snorted and put his arms behind his head. "Not fair."

Iruka laughed and said, "I've been looking for a way to get the edge over you again Naruto."

Naruto laughed and said, "Yeah right Iruka-sensei! There's no way you'll get as big as me!"

Tsunade said, "Don't be so sure Naruto. We don't know how effective this scroll will be. Just to be safe use it once you're outside the village."

With that, Tsunade headed back to the Hokage Mansion, standing out on the balcony to watch Iruka use the scroll. Team Kakashi made its way outside the village and walked about two hundred feet away. Tsunade spotted the group, nothing more than a collection of tiny figures on the horizon. She watched as one of the figures detached from the group and walked a short distance away. This was it. The moment of truth. As Tsunade watched, nervously biting her thumbnail, the team standing a short distance from Iruka was looking on in the same anticipation. The question on everyone's mind was how big Iruka would grow. With a deep breathe Iruka opened the scroll and the pink and blue dust blew out and surrounded him. As the dust cleared Iruka quickly started growing. The team collectively tilted their heads back further and further as Iruka continued growing. Kakashi turned to Naruto and said, "Naruto, grow to your full size. That way we'll have a yardstick to see how much Iruka grows."

Naruto nodded and quickly grew himself up to his full height, looking down on Iruka as he kept on growing. Naruto was shocked as Iruka came up past his waist, past his chest, and finally, with a grin on Iruka's part, past his head. Now even Naruto was looking up as Iruka continued growing up and up and up. Naruto and the rest of the team had to keep moving backward as Iruka's enormous feet started encroaching on them, his toes growing far above their base heights. And still Iruka continued growing. Past four hundred feet, then five hundred, then six hundred until he finally started slowing down at six hundred and seventy feet tall. Iruka looked down at the team and could just make out their tiny forms. Naruto, though quite a bit bigger than the rest of the team, was still small next to Iruka. Iruka laughed and said, "I told you Naruto."

Naruto frowned and said, "This doesn't change anything Iruka-sensei!"

Iruka shrunk himself back down, Naruto following suit though a little reluctantly. He was going to miss being the biggest around the village. As the team continued on looking for Sasori, Tsunade was walking back into her office, going over what she had just witnessed. Iruka had grown much much more than any other giant. The question was, would he lose his size if he lost in the coming match? If he did, they'd all be in trouble with a gigantic Kankuro or Konohamaru to deal with. Then again, depending on what Sasori was doing, they might have to deal with them anyway.

"I'd have to use the dust again to understand it completely. There are a few more giants around here..."

Tsunade closed the door to her office to ruminate over her choices.
