A Clash with Kumogakure (Please Keep Reading, Bookmark, and Recommend!) / Shisui the Body Flicker (Please Keep Reading and Bookmark-Please!!!)

Sarutobi Taro wore a broad smile, repeatedly clenching his little fists as though he felt he might have bragged a bit too much.

Three people suddenly approached from ahead.

They had exotic-looking features and indifferent eyes, with an air of superiority in their gaze, as if they regarded everything around them with disdain.

Suddenly.

One of them, a boy of eight or nine, made no effort to move aside despite the wide road and headed straight for Genya.

He hit with tremendous force.

An ordinary Ninja Academy student might have been knocked heavily to the ground.

However.

He had overestimated himself by picking a fight with Genya, so he could not blame the latter.

Genya merely exerted a little force through his shoulder, and the other boy was sent flying hard.

A fifteen- or sixteen-year-old girl among them cried out in alarm.

"Toroi, are you all right?!"

The boy sprawled on the ground looked about eight or nine years old, with dark skin and gleaming white teeth.

Though young, he looked exceptionally sturdy!

The other two were a boy and a girl.

The boy looked a little over twelve. He had bronze skin, thick lips, and long white hair covering his left eye, with a broadsword strapped to his back.

The girl looked fifteen or sixteen. She had delicate features, short pale-yellow hair, and an especially good figure, filled with an exotic charm.

"Darui and Samui?" Genya frowned.

From the forehead protectors on their heads.

Genya determined that they were ninja from Kumogakure who had come to visit.

Genya did not recognize the boy on the ground, but he knew the other two.

The slightly older boy was Darui, Kumogakure's wielder of Storm Release.

During the Fourth Shinobi World War, he had subdued Kinkaku and Ginkaku, making a dazzling showing.

He would also become the future Fifth Raikage.

The other was the voluptuous Samui. Her indifferent, mature demeanor was hard to forget.

Tsunade, Pakura, Samui, and the others were all mature female ninja in Naruto with excellent figures.

Tsunade was a little too old, so she was unsuitable.

Pakura possessed a mature charm tinged with seduction; even the casual flicker of her eyes could steal one's soul.

Samui, on the other hand, had the kind of aloof personality that made people want to conquer her.

Each had her own style!

"Genya, what are you looking at?!"

While Genya was distracted, Nami pinched his arm and spoke angrily, seeming a little jealous.

"Nami, please keep your distance." Genya cautioned her before withdrawing his gaze.

Little did Genya know that his unintentional appraisal had made Samui deeply displeased.

Samui gave a cold laugh and said, "I never expected someone so young to be such a lecher!"

"So Konoha's ninja are all this kind of trash!"

Just then.

Sarutobi Taro stepped forward and retorted.

"If you say Uchiha Genya is a lecher, I won't argue with you!"

"But I will never allow you to speak of Konoha's ninja that way. Many of them take pride in protecting the village and have sacrificed their lives for it. I will not allow you to insult the village's heroes!"

"Besides, I, Sarutobi Taro, am a ninja whose goal is to become Hokage. Your looks cannot tempt me!"

Sarutobi Taro snorted, lifting his chin with a proud expression.

Beside him, Genya wanted to explain.

Women only slow down the speed at which I draw my sword.

I'm really not that kind of person...

The boy lying on the ground was named Toroi.

He angrily climbed to his feet, staring at Genya like a hungry wolf, as if he wanted to devour him alive!

"You actually dared to sneak attack me?" Toroi roared, clenching his fists as veins bulged across them.

Genya shrugged and spread his hands, speaking expressionlessly.

"You were the one who ran into me. It has nothing to do with me!"

Kumogakure's ninja liked to train and excelled in taijutsu, but compared to Genya, who had cheats, they were still far inferior.

"I was just distracted, so you took advantage of me! If you have the guts, let's go again!"

Toroi's eyes brimmed with fighting spirit!

"How boring." Genya rolled his eyes and prepared to leave.

They were ninja from Kumogakure, and they had come to "conclude a peace treaty."

If he really got into a conflict with them.

Sarutobi Hiruzen might very well punish his own people first.

Forget it.

I'm scared of you, you crafty Third Hokage.

But don't you Kumogakure people push too far either.

Otherwise, I'll really beat all of you down!

Genya's dismissive attitude made Toroi fly into a rage.

He stomped on the ground and shot forward, his fist carrying immense force as it struck toward Genya's back!

"A sneak attack?" Genya sneered. The other boy looked like he was still a Ninja Academy student.

At most, he had the strength of a Genin.

Yet he was this arrogant and overbearing?

He really did not know his place!

"Get lost!"

Genya turned aside and effortlessly avoided Toroi's attack.

He then kicked Toroi in the abdomen.

Toroi flew straight backward like a ball.

If Genya had not been worried about making things worse.

That kick alone would have been enough to send Toroi flying into the sky!

Samui had not expected Genya to strike so fiercely and could not help crying out.

Darui, beside her, reacted instead and caught Toroi in one swift motion.

Because of the intense pain, Toroi screamed as his face instantly turned pale!

Darui had always treated Toroi as a younger brother. Seeing him injured by Genya, his eyes turned cold as blades as he rebuked him.

"For the peace between Kumogakure and Konoha, our Cloud Village Delegation traveled across mountains and rivers to come here from afar. Is this how Konoha treats its guests?"

"I never asked you to come, did I?" Genya mocked without mercy.

"Exactly. Who knows how much of our village's food you've eaten since coming here!" Sarutobi Taro had a sharp tongue, and many elders of his clan had died at the hands of cloud ninja during the Third Great Ninja War, so he did not indulge them.

Darui clenched his fists, veins rising on the backs of his hands. He slowly said, "Since Konoha is unwilling to apologize to Kumogakure, then don't blame us for what happens next!"

He looked ready to fight at the slightest disagreement.

Samui stepped in front of Darui and spoke in a voice only the two of them could hear.

"Darui, have you forgotten why we came here?"

"If we cause the mission to fail, Lord Raikage definitely won't spare you!"

Their stated purpose for this visit was to conclude a peace treaty, but their true objective was to steal the Byakugan.

If they could also steal some Kekkei Genkai or Ninjutsu along the way, that would be even better!

Darui said confidently.

"Don't worry. The Third Hokage, Sarutobi Hiruzen, is bent on pursuing peace. He definitely won't dare lay a hand on us!"

Before coming.

The Cloud Village Delegation had thoroughly studied Konoha and learned its bottom line.

If they beat up a little brat.

The other side would only swallow its anger!

The atmosphere was tense and confrontational!

At the moment when things were about to erupt.

A gentle voice sounded nearby.

"You can't fight so casually inside the village."

The newcomer was a young man.

He wore a black short-sleeved high-collared shirt and black pants, carried a kodachi on his back, and had a warm smile on his face at all times. He seemed extremely approachable.

Uchiha Shisui!

Besides him.

Itachi was also there.

They had just returned from training.

"Hello, friends from Kumogakure." Shisui greeted them with narrowed eyes and a beaming smile, every bit the graceful gentleman.

"It's Uchiha Shisui!" Darui no longer had his earlier arrogance and insolence. Only terror remained in his pupils.

A few years ago, during the Third Shinobi World War.

As a Kumogakure logistics officer, Darui had been "fortunate" enough to witness Shisui's coldness and terror on the battlefield. Thus, upon seeing Shisui, his legs began trembling uncontrollably.

Noticing Darui's abnormality, Shisui teased, "It's such a hot summer, yet your legs are shaking from the cold. It seems your constitution is rather weak."

"Cloud Village was at fault just now. I apologize on Toroi's behalf." Darui took the initiative to apologize, lowering his proud head.

Uchiha Shisui, known as Body Flicker Shisui, was standing right here.

If a conflict truly broke out.

The three Kumogakure ninja would not stand even the slightest chance.

And Uchiha Shisui was not merely astonishingly fast. More importantly, his Genjutsu was terrifying. A single glance could put someone under Genjutsu.

There was no way to resist it!

It was better to take a step back than suffer an immediate loss!

"It's fine. Conflicts between children are normal." Shisui answered with a smile, completely unconcerned about what had just happened.

After the three left.
