Had the Fourth Great Ninja War Come Early?

"Teacher Kanami, what's wrong?"

Uchiha Sasuke noticed that Kanami had suddenly become quiet and found it very strange.

Kanami carefully sensed it using Mind's Eye of the Kagura.

"This aura... it's not from a living person, but there are living people nearby..."

"Not a living person, yet able to move freely..."

He frowned, and soon an answer came to mind.

Impure World Reincarnation.

The Impure World Reincarnation.

Only the Impure World Reincarnation can allow a person to move freely after death, and the Chakra gives off a very cold, deadly aura.

"Teacher Kanami, why aren't you saying anything?"

Sasuke asked again.

"Sasuke," Kanami turned to look at Uchiha Sasuke, "You should go back first, something might happen in the village."

"Ah?"

"What's going on now? Is it going to be another war?"

Sasuke smiled.

Then he saw Kanami nod. "Yes, there's a high probability that Konoha is about to be attacked again."

Sasuke:!!!

"Okay, I understand. I'll prepare for battle now!"

However, as soon as he finished speaking, his field of vision began to shift.

He appeared in his own home the next second.

"You stay at home, don't go anywhere, just leave everything to me."

Their voices were heard, but they were never seen.

After Kanami's voice rang out, his figure disappeared again, appearing directly in front of Tsunade.

"Kanami? What happened to you—"

Before Tsunade could finish speaking, Kanami interrupted, "Let's prepare for battle. Another enemy is attacking Konoha, and this time it will be much more difficult to deal with than the last."

Before Tsunade could ask anything after she finished speaking, Kanami's figure disappeared again.

Meanwhile, Kanami's Shadow Clone were also transmitting information to people he knew in the village.

After personally informing Tsunade, his true form went to his house and found Hinata.

"Has something happened in Kanami again?"

Hinata noticed Kanami's expression and immediately realized that something was about to happen again.

Kanami nodded. "Yes, that's right. Enemies are attacking Konoha again. This time they're using the Forbidden Jutsu Impure World Reincarnation. It's troublesome. Let's go together."

"Good!"

Hinata nodded, untied her apron, and put on her Ninja outfit.

Flying Thunder God Technique!

Kanami grabbed Hinata's hand, and the two vanished from the spot in an instant.

Konoha Village Entrance.

From a great distance, Kotetsu Hagane and Mizuki Izumo could see some people dressed in strange attire.

"Tetsu, what's wrong with Konoha lately? Is it possessed? Every few Tenten, a new group of people comes. When did being Guardian God become so difficult?"

"Mizuki Izumo complained."

"Alright, that's enough. We'll just do our best. Besides, it's only been a short while. We're usually so idle we're practically sitting on our hands."

Kotetsu Hagane offered words of comfort.

He wasn't lying; their job was arguably the most relaxed among state-owned enterprises, with good benefits, a decent salary, and easy work.

Most of the time is free, and there's even time to play cards.

They had previously played cards with members of the Hyuga Clan, and the other party immediately activated their Byakugan. If it weren't for the Byakugan activating, numerous veins would bulge on the temples on both sides of their eyes.

They're absolutely going to lose everything, down to their underwear.

"Hey, you lot, don't go any further. This is Konoha Village. No matter where you Ninja come from, going any further will be considered hostile to our village."

"Mizuki Izumo shouted loudly."

Upon hearing this, a normal person would nod and leave, after all, who doesn't know the fame of Konoha?

But this group of people was very strange. After hearing Mizuki Izumo's reminder, they didn't even hesitate for a moment and continued to move forward.

"Izumo, be careful, something's wrong."

Kotetsu Hagane immediately reminded him.

After so many unexpected attacks, the two of them had become increasingly adept at handling unforeseen events.

Even if the other party had simply gotten lost and wandered into Konoha Village by accident, they would still treat them as if they intended to attack the village.

"Izumo, go and inform the Lord Hokage. I'll handle things with them."

Kotetsu Hagane quietly gestured for Mizuki Izumo to leave.

However, Mizuki Izumo shook his head. "There are so many of them. If I leave now, you'll definitely die."

"Otherwise what? Our duty as Guardian God is to notify the Lord Hokage and immediately put the village on high alert and into a state of combat readiness!"

Kotetsu Hagane reminded him.

Mizuki Izumo gritted his teeth, turned around, and left.

Just then, two figures blocked Mizuki Izumo's path.

"No need to go. I've already sent Shadow Clone to inform all the Ninja in the village."

Kanami's voice came through.

The two men Kotetsu Hagane and Mizuki Izumo, immediately felt relieved.

"Lord Feng An!"

"Lord Hinata!"

Even though Kanami and Hinata were not older than the two of them, they still greeted them respectfully.

They were very clear about Kanami's strength.

Moreover, arriving at the scene immediately at that moment calmed them down.

This reassurance was even more effective than that given to the Third Hokage Hiruzen Sarutobi.

"Okay, you can all leave now. Leave the rest to us."

The calmer Kanami's tone, the more at ease they felt.

"Great! Tetsu, Lord Feng An and Lord Hinata have arrived at the scene! Now we're saved!"

"Mizuki Izumo shouted excitedly."

He lay sprawled on Kotetsu Hagane's body.

Kotetsu Hagane disgustedly pulled Mizuki Izumo off him. "Don't climb on me like that, people will think we're something special!"

He remembered the last time he helped Tsunade move some documents, the two of them were accidentally seen by Tsunade holding hands, and she looked at them with strange eyes.

He didn't want to experience that look again!

But ever since that incident, he's noticed that Mizuki Izumo has been acting increasingly strangely, always trying to get close to him from time to time.

This made him wonder if there was really something wrong with Mizuki Izumo.

It would be troublesome if the other person really had those kinds of feelings for him, because he's a total straight man!

You can tell just from his name, Kotetsu Hagane!

"Kanami, are the auras you sensed theirs?"

Hinata Hyuga her Byakugan, looked at the group of people in front of her, and spoke.

Kanami nodded. "Yes, that's them. They should be the Impure World Reincarnation Body. As for the other living people, they are not among them."

As he spoke, he activated the Rinnegan as well, while his right eye activated the Mangekyō Sharingan.

In an instant, just like Hinata, he took in the other person's appearance.

After all, the distance wasn't particularly far; one only needed the basic perception abilities of the Sharingan to see it clearly.

"Wait, they are... the Seven Ninja Swordsmen!"

Kanami recognized the other person instantly from their weapon and appearance.

"Could it be Kabuto Yakushi?!"

The Fourth Great Ninja War has been brought forward to this timeline?!
