Those who had never mastered Space-Time Ninjutsu could never understand how space could be switched in an instant, no matter how deeply they studied ninjutsu and chakra.
Kabuto, for example, had been brought into Konoha by Naruto's Flying Thunder God the instant he touched Naruto's chakra arm.
It had taken less than the blink of an eye.
"What an incredible ninjutsu!"
Kabuto voiced his praise, then looked to the side, both to observe his surroundings and to divert attention.
The leader's Flying Thunder God Mark was still on his body, and Naruto Uzumaki, who had mastered the same technique, was standing right in front of him. It would be trouble if Naruto discovered it.
Of course, Kabuto had no idea that Naruto had known about it from the beginning. He did not even know that the leader had "personally appointed" him as an envoy, and that he had come to Konoha on a diplomatic mission rather than to be imprisoned.
Looking at the not entirely familiar surroundings, Kabuto felt a little dazed. As a spy who had grown up in Konoha's shadows and then spent years undercover, Kabuto Yakushi could have claimed an all-encompassing knowledge of Konoha a few years ago. He had even known which alley sold red bean buns for a few coins less.
But while Konoha might not have changed beyond all recognition, it at least seemed completely different to Kabuto's senses.
Kabuto had always possessed a fair talent for sensing, and while exploring Madara Uchiha's burial site recently, he had happened to learn a peculiar ninjutsu that allowed him to observe his surroundings through chakra.
The instant Naruto brought him here, he quietly activated that ninjutsu. His professional standards as a spy would not let him do nothing and meekly accept being someone's prisoner.
