Early one morning, a red-haired boy with a long sword slung over his shoulder appeared on a street in Turbulent Town, in the Land of Rivers. Many ninjas from Sunagakure in the Land of Wind had come to Turbulent Town lately, and business at the town's shops had picked up. Uzumaki Kuming's sudden appearance on the street didn't put the locals on guard.
However, his handsome looks drew frequent glances from quite a few young women.
Yet although the town's local residents weren't wary of Uzumaki Kuming, the Sunagakure ninja who had already entered town began following him of their own accord the moment he suddenly appeared on the street.
A few minutes after Jiuming entered town, he sensed a familiar Chakra not far behind him. As soon as it appeared, the Sunagakure ninja who had been watching him all discreetly left, as if they had planned it in advance.
Is that Chakra Rasa's?
He's nearby? And I didn't sense him at all before now!
Uzumaki Jiuming stopped in the middle of the street and glanced around, but couldn't spot anyone watching him. Still, that familiar Chakra remained within the range of his perception.
In the largest inn in Turbulent Town, Rasa rested one hand over his left eye, controlling an eyeball made of Gold Dust to monitor Jiuming from afar. The inn had been booked by the Sunagakure ninja, and they had set up a barrier around it, using it as a temporary base.
Earlier, one of the Sunagakure ninja had reported that a strange ninja had suddenly appeared in town. From his subordinate's description of the man's appearance, Rasa recognized him as Uzumaki Jiuming. So he had used the Third Eye technique to watch him personally.
He didn't know why Jiuming had recovered from his injuries so quickly,
