An ordinary day in Konoha. The afternoon sunlight carried a faint trace of heat as it hurriedly spilled across the earth.
It drove away the biting chill of late autumn for the pedestrians coming and going along the streets.
The thunderous roar of beating wings dragged a long dragon in from the horizon. The darkness that blotted out the sky made those basking in the direct sunlight raise their heads to watch the aerial train being hauled by the Seven-Tails.
Maintaining a fixed speed, the airship seemed as though it might topple from the sky under their upturned gazes, crushing the stone buildings standing beside them like a forest.
"If that thing fell inside the village, the damage would be unimaginable."
Uchiha Setsuna murmured at the airship continuing on its course, the shadow cast over his face sharpening his gaze.
As sunlight returned to his vision, Setsuna called to the Police Force members behind him and continued the patrol.
Multitasking, Setsuna's blade-like gaze continuously swept through the crowd, searching for anyone who might pose a threat to public safety.
Looks like I need to file a report with Tobirama and have him specifically establish flight routes away from Konoha's airspace, as well as build an airship port.
"Ah-choo!"
Having only just entered the laboratory and changed into a white lab coat, Tobirama narrowed his eyes and sneezed with difficulty.
"Teacher Tobirama, once you reach middle age, you ought to treat yourself better. There's no need to skimp on Enlightenment Tea."
Rikusei smoothed the wrinkles from his cuff, a teasing smile at his lips as he looked at Tobirama in the full-length mirror.
While the boy was secretly feeling pleased with himself, Tobirama reached over and ruffled his hair, feeling the Uchiha Clan's signature soft black hair. "Did you bring everything?"
