A foreigner's journey

Half a month later, the Land of Fire.

The rock wall with the heads of the First Hokage to the Fourth Hokage carved on it is called "Hokage Rock", and it is regarded as the symbol of Konoha Village.

The spacious and bright Hokage's office is located on the top of the building at the top of Hokage Rock, with an unobstructed view of the entire Konoha Village.

The gray-haired Third Hokage held a pipe in his hand, withdrew his gaze from the floor-to-ceiling glass window, and turned to look at Hatake Kakashi in front of the desk: "...So, the rebel ninja land of Kirigakure Village Zabuza is truly dead this time, and Uchiha Sasuke also successfully opened the Sharingan during this mission."

"Yes, Hokage-sama. At Sasuke's age, he is considered a rare genius even among the Uchiha clan that once had so many stars."

Kakashi Hatake spoke softly when talking about his proud disciple.

"Genius... you are wrong, Kakashi. Uchiha Sasuke's talent may be called a genius when compared to ordinary ninjas, but it is far from the top level among the Uchiha clan."

The Third Hokage took a puff of his pipe, sat back on the chair behind his desk, and slowly exhaled a puff of white smoke from his mouth:

"Not to mention Quick Slash, Shisui, Mirror... Uchiha Itachi, Uchiha Sasuke's brother, is too much stronger than him. Itachi opened the Sharingan when he was only eight years old, and joined ANBU at the age of eleven. , Sasuke can only be said to be an average person compared to Itachi."

Kakashi hurriedly explained: "That's because Sasuke lacks the teachings from the elders of the Uchiha clan..."

"That's why I put Uchiha Sasuke in your seventh class. You also have Sharingan, so you are currently the most suitable person to teach him." The Sandaime Hokage interrupted Kakashi: "In this mission, How is Naruto doing?"

"...Naruto's Nine-Tails Chakra almost lost control, but fortunately he controlled it in time."

"Severe emotional fluctuations will cause the power of the tailed beasts in the jinchuriki to overflow. I don't need to say more about this. Kakashi, I know that Sasuke and Naruto in Team 7 are difficult to take care of, so I entrusted you to take charge. Their captain, these children are begging you."

Looking at the Sandaime Hokage, the leader of the Ninja Village, Kakashi nodded slowly: "Please rest assured, Lord Hokage. I'll leave first."

With a click, the office door opened and closed again.

The office became quiet again, and the Sandaime Hokage leaned back on his chair, holding his pipe and lost in thought.

Uchiha...

Su Zhan, are you still alive? Five years have passed, why haven't you come back to Konoha? Is it really what Danzo said...

Unconsciously, the pipe in Sandaime's hand was clenched.

At this time, outside the main gate of Konoha Village, a figure was stopped by two ninjas guarding the gate.

"Hey, you are not from Konoha, are you? If you are a spy or an enemy ninja, you would look down on us Konoha ninjas by invading openly from the main entrance."

Shiranui Genma holds a thousand books in his mouth. He seems to be carefree but is actually very thoughtful. He didn't expect that he would encounter uninvited guests coming to Konoha Village just as he was working as a gatekeeper.

Yamashiro Aoba pushed up the green sunglasses on his nose: "If you have an upright identity, please take off your hooded robe and follow the prescribed procedures to register and apply for a village entry permit."

Not far in front of Shiranui Genma and Yamashiro Aoba, stood a figure wearing a black hooded robe. Because the body was completely covered by the hood of the robe, his face and body shape could not be seen. It is no wonder that the two guards guarding the door Ninjas would be so wary.

Seeing the hooded man standing there silently became even more weird, Shiranui Genma lowered his body slightly, and Yamashiro Aoba was also ready to form the seal.

At this time, a deep and powerful voice came from under the hood:

"...Xuanjian, Qingye, long time no see."

Um? This voice...is a bit familiar? Shiranui Genma did not relax his vigilance, but instead put on a seal gesture: "Who are you! Show your true face!"

Any ninja who normally graduates from a ninja school will use the transformation technique. [Disguise] is a required course for ninjas. Shiranui Genma will never judge someone's true identity based on their appearance or voice.

But where had I heard this voice before? It sounds really familiar.

In response to the hostility between the two people, the figure did not adopt a corresponding combat posture. Instead, he slowly opened his hood and revealed his face: "That's right. We haven't seen each other for five or six years, right? My voice sounds strange to me. It’s also normal.”

"You, you are!" Shiranui Genma opened his mouth wide and didn't even notice that the Senbon in his mouth fell to the ground.

Yamashiro Aoba nervously held on to his sunglasses and looked up and down in disbelief: "Senior Quick Kill!?"

The person in front of me is a middle-aged man of about thirty-five years old. He is one meter tall. His black hair is as soft and matte as crow feathers. His appearance is majestic and heroic, and his eyes are as sharp as a sword. Smiling and unsmiling.

Of course Shiranui Genma and Yamashiro Aoba recognized this person. He was Uchiha Quick Slayer. He was as famous as the 'Yellow Flash' Namikaze Minato in the Third Ninja War. He was feared by the ninjas in the hostile ninja village. He was unparalleled. A master of swordsmanship. Shisui, the powerful ninja who later appeared in the Uchiha clan, learned the Uchiha speed slash fighting style.

But the Uchiha clan was obviously killed by the traitorous ninja Uchiha Itachi five years ago, leaving only Uchiha Sasuke. Where did this Uchiha Speed ​​Slash come from?

"Senior Su Zhan is dead a long time ago. If you pretend you don't want to find someone with a lower reputation, show your true colors! Otherwise we will take you back and torture you slowly!"

As he spoke, several figures appeared behind Shiranui Genma. Without exception, they all wore masks of different styles. Immediately afterwards, several more figures wearing masks blocked all the paths of the 'Uchiha Speed ​​Slash' and formed a surrounding posture. .

Uchiha Quick Slayer opened his hooded robe to reveal a dark blue long-sleeved shirt with a stand-up collar and black trousers and leggings. He wore black gloves on his hands and had a Kusanagi sword slung around his waist. He looked around with cold eyes:

"Is it ANBU? Or... [Gen]?"

root? What is he saying? Many ANBU ninjas were a little surprised, and a few showed a little uneasiness. Five years ago, due to the night of the Uchiha genocide, Shimura Danzo, the leader of [Gen], was dismissed from his position as 'Hokage Assistant', and his 'Gen' was also disbanded. But in fact, there are still many "rooted" ninjas who serve in the ANBU and obey Danzo's orders.

Danzo had issued an order a long time ago. If an Uchiha was found to have returned to the village, he would be killed or expelled by "reasonable" means as much as possible.

"He doesn't even have a Sharingan. He is not an Uchiha Speedbreaker! He must be a spy sent by other ninja villages. Take action!" An ANBU ninja suddenly shouted loudly and attacked Uchiha Speedbreaker at the same time. Almost at the same time, there were several The ninja responded to him and launched an attack together. These root ninjas who were loyal to Danzo decided not to give the person who looked like Uchiha Quick Slash any chance and killed him on the spot!

"The same old tricks of frame-up... Danzo Shimura and his dogs are still so boring after so many years away from the village."

Uchiha Suzhan closed his eyes slightly, then opened them suddenly:

"Then let me help you recall the horror of these eyes!"

In the scarlet eyes, three magatama were slowly rotating.

PS: I always feel that Uchiha Speed ​​Slayer would be a bit boring if his nickname was ‘God Speed ​​Slash’. Is there a more suitable title?
