Simultaneous time travel: Am I the only normal person?

"Hatake Kakashi, an elite jonin of the Hidden Leaf Village, is known as the No. 1 technician of Konoha and is proficient in thousands of ninjutsu except for the blood limit."

"He became a genin at the age of five, a chunin at the age of six, and a jonin at the age of twelve. In the past twenty years, he has completed 298 A-level tasks and 42 S-level tasks."

"He may not be the strongest ninja in the ninja world, but he is the most qualified ninja in the ninja world. Whether in terms of task completion rate, speed or employer experience, he is the best of the best."

In the Hokage's office, Hatake Kakashi looked strange.

At this moment, Sarutobi Hiruzen kindly introduced the identity of the guard to Luke.

Team 7 was a little confused.

Didn't they agree to take the mission? Why did they find Luke?

"Of course, in order to ensure your safety, Kakashi is only a guard in public. I will send a team to follow you secretly."

After speaking, Sarutobi Hiruzen clapped his hands.

"Old man, have you discussed it?"

With a flash of his figure, Asuma Sarutobi appeared in the Hokage's office with a body-flickering technique, with a cigarette in his mouth.

He looked carefree.

He is the son of the Hokage, and no one will stop him from entering the Hokage building.

Sarutobi Hiruzen glared at him, but Asuma remained unmoved, just slightly straightening his posture.

He is the son of Sarutobi Hiruzen. When he was young, in order to pursue the meaning of "jade", he resolutely chose to leave Konoha and join the Twelve Guardian Ninjas of the Land of Fire.

Something happened later, and he withdrew from the Twelve Guardian Ninjas and returned to Konoha Village.

He is currently the leader of the Tenth Team, one of the elite ninjas in the village, and his strength is relatively strong among ordinary ninjas.

"This is my son, Asuma Sarutobi. He will hide in the dark with the help of a ninja who is good at illusion."

Asuma nodded.

But his attitude is still not very good.

Sarutobi Hiruzen showed some helplessness on his face. Of course, he knew why his son was so impatient.

However, considering the importance of Luke's identity and the particularity of the mission.

This kind of mission can easily add a bit of thickness to Asuma's resume.

At the very least, he can gain more favor from the nobles.

Sarutobi Hiruzen has been working hard for Asuma.

If it weren't for his hasty death in the future, and Naruto and Sasuke were too powerful, Asuma would have a certain chance of becoming the next Hokage, or a certain Hokage.

The three students of the tenth team are the children of the chiefs of the Nara, Yamanaka, and Akimichi clans.

If they don't die in the future, there is basically a high probability that they will take over the position of chief.

These three clans alone are not as good as the Hyuga clan and the extinct Uchiha clan.

However, the three-clan combination of the Ino-Shika-Cho trio is often stronger in combat power than the three Uchiha or three Hyuga.

Of course, it is limited to the Uchiha who has not awakened the Mangekyō.

The three Mangekyōs, the Ino-Shika-Cho clan and the three clans together are not enough for others to slaughter.

But no matter what, under normal circumstances, Sarutobi Asuma, who has the support of the three tribes of Ino, Shikaku and Cho, at least has the basic base to compete for the position of Hokage.

In addition, the eighth team led by the senior ninja Yuhi Kurenai, who he is currently pursuing, the three families of Aburame, Inuzuka and Hyuga.

It's stable, this wave is stable!

At least, except for the Shimura family of Danzo and Lao Bi, all the other ninjas in Konoha Village who have some strength have been pulled behind Asuma by Sarutobi Hiruzen.

In terms of strength, Asuma is first-class in physical skills and ninjutsu, and has Yuhi Kurenai to accompany him in illusion, so he can grow up in the future.

As long as Sarutobi Hiruzen persists for a few more years, when Asuma makes up for his strength in all aspects, he can also become a powerful ninja like him who is good at using compound ninjutsu.

The title of the strongest Hokage was taken away by him, Sarutobi Hiruzen, which can make Sarutobi Asuma the most versatile Hokage.

Of course, these little tricks are just the thoughts of Sarutobi Hiruzen himself.

The future is too far away, who knows what will happen.

The most important thing now is to pave the way for Asuma step by step.

"What do you think?" Sarutobi Hiruzen looked up, "If it is not enough, Konoha can send more jonin to deploy combat power, but doing so will easily arouse the vigilance of neighboring countries."

In peacetime, jonin is already the top combat power in the ninja world.

In some small ninja villages, they can even serve as the "shadow" position in the village.

For the ninja villages of the five major countries, each jonin is also a rare mainstay in the village.

Konoha Village is the most powerful ninja village among the five major ninja villages.

It is easy to send three jonin to escort one person.

If it were not for the worry that too many elite ninjas would be dispatched, causing misunderstandings from other major ninja villages, Sarutobi Hiruzen would have wanted to directly call on the Anbu to go out collectively.

Anyway, the money is not paid by him.

The mission reward for this escort mission was sponsored by the daimyo and nobles of the Fire Country.

The daimyo also sent letters to the surrounding countries to explain that this action was held for our country's literary masters to go out and collect folk songs.

It was to be able to write about the magnificent scenery that ordinary people in the ninja world could hardly see, and to give other countries an opportunity to enrich their cultural heritage.

Do not attack or rob.

If there is an offense, the Fire Country will launch a war of salvation to show that the majesty of a great country is inviolable.

The last sentence is a clear threat to the surrounding small countries.

I sent the person over, but you are not allowed to move, and you must even send the person back to me at the right time!

If you can't send him back, you can say goodbye to the world.

Of course, these words are more of a warning.

The Fire Country Daimyo is not crazy yet. They just want to use this to show Luke's importance and don't let him have any accidents.

Or, he was kidnapped by some daimyo who didn't want to be a princess.

Then I really won't have time to find a place to cry.

"That's enough. You have considered it very carefully, Lord Hokage."

Luke smiled and nodded.

The difference between cultured people is that they are humble.

This sentence "Lord Hokage" is much better than the flattery of subordinates.

The old waist of the Sandaime straightened up immediately, and a kind smile like a daisy appeared on his face.

"That's good, don't worry, Mr. Luke, we will do our best to protect your safety, and I hope you can gain something from this field trip."

The Sandaime stroked his beard and sent his blessings.

In Konoha, Luke's personal safety can undoubtedly be guaranteed.

But no one cared about his mental safety.

Especially according to the answers of Ayame and Ichiraku, Luke's mental state is indeed a bit worrying.

After writing "No Longer Human", this prolific writer fell into an unprecedented period of weakness.

For half a year, he did not produce a new work.

It was not until his true identity was exposed that Luke squeezed out a novel like squeezing toothpaste.

Although the quality is still first-class, the style is still that kind of faint sadness, which makes people feel unforgettable after reading it.

This kind of sad literature is very beautiful, but it makes people worry about the author's mental state.

And after publishing this book, Luke fell into a state of autism for several months.

Until recently, he took the initiative to contact the outside world.

And entrusted the ninjas to escort him abroad to collect folk songs to comfort the scars in his heart.

If the literary giant who collected folk songs was his disciple Jiraiya, the third generation Hokage would definitely not believe this nonsense reason.

Not only did he not believe it, he would even break his legs with a monkey stick.

Jiraiya went out to collect folk songs, and he went to that country again. Did he want to go there? !

Pah! Despicable!

But if it was Luke

Then again.

One thing is one thing, Luke's mental state is indeed problematic.

If it weren't for Ayame taking care of him during this period, he might have starved himself to death in the six months after he finished writing "No Longer Human".

Now that he can get out, he still wants to go out to find beautiful scenery to heal his depressed emotions.

Sarutobi Hiruzen thinks this is reasonable.

So he immediately submitted his resignation letter to the daimyo about Luke's going abroad to collect folk songs. After getting approval and financial support, he quickly found two senior ninjas to go on the mission together.

As for Kakashi, he was added temporarily.

Because Luke asked whether he could go to the Land of Waves on the way to the Land of Hot Water while he was preparing.

He had some ideas about the sea and wanted to go there to see if he could materialize his inspiration.

As for why they chose to go to the Land of Waves instead of the Land of Water with more sea views.

Haha, those crazy people of the Mist Ninja, who knows if their brains are not fully developed.

If they don't listen to the advice and really send a bunch of people to attack and take Luke away, then Sarutobi Hiruzen will have no good solution.

During the Third World War, the Hidden Mist Village did not take the initiative to participate in the war, but most of its own people were slaughtered.

There were frequent rebellious ninjas, many blood families were destroyed, and there were countless fugitives.

Later, after the end of the Third World War, rumors came out that the Fourth Mizukage was suspected of being controlled by illusions, which was like deceiving children.

Fortunately, after the death of the Fourth Mizukage, the fifth generation who succeeded him adopted the strategy of the elder master and implemented a policy of peace and openness.

This gradually reversed the original blood mist situation.

However, the outside world's reputation has been fixed, and it is still difficult for the Hidden Mist Village in the Land of Water to gain the trust of other countries.

So Sarutobi Hiruzen persuaded Luke not to go to the Land of Water in person, but to go to the small country of the Land of Waves where there are almost no ninja activities.

Not only is it closer to the Land of Fire, but there are no strong men around, so safety is guaranteed. Most importantly, Luke can also get close to the sea view he needs.

What a considerate service, what a perfect field trip experience.

The Sandaime thought he had been considerate enough, even more considerate than his own son Asuma.

Not to mention that he was worried that Kirigakure might have another attack, so he sent ninjas to fight across the border just in case.

He also specially added Kakashi, who came to take over the mission temporarily, to the escort mission today.

As for the students of Team 7?

They are also on an escort mission, but they are not escorting Luke.

Rather,

"Hey, hey, hey, are you still not well? Is it possible that such a big Konoha doesn't even have an excellent ninja?"

The drunken old man kicked the door open and asked with a smell of alcohol.

Hearing this, the ninjas present frowned.

They turned around collectively and stared at the old drunk.

Although the old drunk looked like a sloppy bastard, it was actually just a disguise on the surface, and he knew what was going on.

When he saw a bunch of people in the Hokage's office staring at him with unfriendly faces.

His heart suddenly skipped a beat and he sobered up a lot.

His body also stood up straight involuntarily.

"Well, it seems that Konoha is really full of talents."

Hearing this, everyone withdrew their gazes with satisfaction.

The old drunkard cursed these people for being shameless, but on the surface he picked up the wine bottle and drank the wine to stop himself.

After drinking, he burped.

The smell of alcohol filled the Hokage's office, and Asuma frowned.

But he didn't say much.

He disappeared in the Hokage's office with a flash.

The old man assigned him a team of Anbu, and Yuhi Kurenai had been waiting at the village gate for a long time.

For Luke's safety, the old man can be said to have taken great pains.

He is just a writer, so serious?

Asuma was a little dissatisfied.

After Asuma left, the Sandaime looked at Hatake Kakashi and nodded.

Hatake Kakashi coughed.

"This is your mission, escort Mr. Dazna back to the Land of Waves."

"Huh?"

"Teacher Kakashi, we have to protect him back to his country?"

Uzumaki Naruto took the initiative, and his disdainful tone made the Sandaime Hokage's kind smile reveal a little embarrassment.

Dazna even sneered.

"Can this kid really escort me back to my country safely? He might run away when he met bandits."

Naruto's anger rose all of a sudden.

He immediately shouted to teach Dazna a lesson.

But Sakura pulled him back and stopped him.

They are ninjas from Konoha Village, and they cannot attack the client without reason.

Although the client's words are rather bad, this is not a reason for them to take action.

Not to mention that they are now in front of the Hokage.

"Naruto, stop it."

The Sandaime said.

Naruto stopped immediately.

The old man took out his pipe with a kind look, lit it and took a puff.

"Mr. Dazna, don't look at Naruto's young age, he is also a ninja."

"If it's just dealing with bandits, Naruto can still protect you."

After saying that, the Sandaime looked at Dazna meaningfully.

Dazna's expression froze, and he didn't say anything more.

Did he notice anything?

"By the way, this time there will be Konoha's jonin Hatake Kakashi traveling with us. His main task is to protect Mr. Luke, but he can also take care of you."

Hatake Kakashi nodded slightly.

Although there is no mission for Luke, he will go out with Team 7 to perform tasks.

After all, he is the instructor of Team 7.

Before confirming that this team has the ability to guarantee their personal safety, he will mostly go with them on missions outside the village.

And now the Sandaime's words are nothing more than a slap in the face first, and then a sweet date.

While stabilizing Dazna's mentality, it also appeases Naruto and the others.

Hearing this, Dazna smiled happily.

"Is that so? Thank you very much, Hokage."

The old drunkard walked out happily.

The Third Hokage knocked on the table rhythmically, and Hatake Kakashi showed a look of understanding.

Obviously, they are not completely ignorant of Dazna.

After all, it is about the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki and the great writer Luke, so a guy like Dazna will naturally do some investigation.

But most of what they investigated was just some superficial information.

A bridge builder who offended the rich man of the Wave Country, the Third Hokage thought that at that time, it would be nothing more than dealing with a bunch of ordinary people under the rich man's care.

It was a good opportunity to increase Luke's resentment towards the Wave Country. (End of this chapter)
