"Vortex...... Naruto?"

On the way to Konoha Village, the land of fire, after leaving the desert where the ruins of Loulan were located, hearing Nagato mention the task entrusted to him by Queen Sara of Roland, Uchiha Shisui couldn't help frowning, showing an expression as if he had thought of something.

"Why, do you know this man, stop the water?" Seeing that Uchiha Shisui showed such an expression, Nagato, who had thought that this would be a mission that would take a lot of time to investigate and find the target, asked in surprise.

"No, I don't know who this name corresponds to, but the surname Uzumaki ......" Uchiha Shisui thought for a while, and said in an incomprehensible and uncertain tone, "No matter how you think about it, it has nothing to do with the wife of the four generations of Hokage, the Nine-Tails' human pillar power Uzumaki Kushina."

"But the surname of the four Hokages is Hakaze, right? If that Naruto was really the child of Kushina Uzumaki and the fourth Hokage, he should also be called Naruto Hakaze, shouldn't he?" Nagato questioned, "And after the Uzumaki clan was destroyed in the Vortex Village, they were forced to scatter to various parts of the ninja world, so maybe some of the Uzumaki people other than Uzumaki Kushina were taken in by Konoha?"

"Maybe, after all, I haven't been back to Konoha for more than two years, and according to Queen Sarah's description, that sixteen-year-old boy named Naruto Uzumaki came to Loulan five or six years ago, before the Third Ninja War began, and came to Loulan about twenty years later, so in this way, he was indeed born after I left Konoha, maybe it was the offspring of some wandering Uzumaki clan after he settled in Konoha, right?"

Uchiha Shisui thought about it, and it was indeed the case, so he stopped dwelling on the possible meaning behind the name, and instead looked in the direction of Konoha Village with a little nostalgia and worry.

"Konoha ah...... I wonder how much you've changed compared to when I left? The cliff with the heads of the Hokage of the past generations should already have a fourth Yan Yan now, right?"

"Scared of homesickness?" Nagato asked curiously as he stepped lightly on the back of an eagle that happened to swoop down to hunt rabbits, and continued to keep up with the Uchiha Shisui without any interference with its speed and direction, "But then again, do you prefer that Konoha doesn't change much, or do you want Konoha to change a little more?"

「…… I can't say it."

Uchiha Shisui shook his head, his expression equally confused and confused, "If nothing changes, it may be good for me, but for Konoha, it means that they haven't improved at all, right?" That's not going to work, a new era has arrived, and the village that rests on its laurels will be left far behind, and I don't want Konoha to become the kind of person who has been abandoned by the times.

But if the changes were too great, I was afraid that I would not recognize my hometown at all, and I was worried that the people of my clan would not have time to adapt to such drastic changes and would be forced to become an obstacle on the road to reform...... It's ridiculous to say, obviously when I watched the four generations of the fog hide scold Fang Xuan and drag the fog in a way that was close to dragging towards a new system, I still felt that those diehards were really annoying...... "....

"Probably because there is no relationship between you and you other than Kaguya on the fog hidden side, right?" As a bystander and an outsider, Nagato could easily hear the reason why the Uchiha was tangled, "But Konoha's words, the old and young of the Uchiha clan, you can't ignore it."

"That's why I think that the mental strength of the fourth generation is beyond what ordinary people can imagine."

The Uchiha sighed and sighed from the bottom of his heart:

"In the process of his reform of the fog, the Kaguya clan basically didn't get any special preferential treatment from him, and sometimes he even unceremoniously pulled out and criticized him for making mistakes...... If it weren't for the fact that he lives in Kaguya's clan and takes his sister and nephew out to eat from time to time, I might have thought he had broken with Kaguya."

"Then I think you're closer to breaking with the family, stop the water." Nagato smiled and pointed at the Uchiha

The mist on the forehead shook his head and said, "If this thing is seen by the Uchiha clan who know you, maybe it will make them so angry that they will directly open the writing wheel eye of the three hooks."

"When you enter the realm of the Fire Country, you will definitely hide this thing...... And this time, we were just going to sneak into Konoha in advance to prevent the 'roots' and organize a surprise attack on Konoha in advance, and we didn't even have to uncover the disguise to fight until the necessary moment."

Uchiha Shisui covered his forehead with some embarrassment and said.

"I hope so."

Looking at the green that was gradually appearing on the horizon in front of him, Nagato sighed.

……

Two days later, Konoha.

Nagato and Uchiha Shisui, who had disguised themselves in disguise in advance and came to the Land of Fire from the Land of Wind, entered Konoha Village through the main entrance.

At this time, Konoha is not much different from the appearance in the memory of Uchiha Shisui, and because it is no longer a relationship during the war, the overall social atmosphere is much more active and enthusiastic than at the end of the Third Ninja World War, he raised his head, looked up at the fourth Yan Yan who was newly carved on the mountain wall, and whispered to himself with some emotion:

"Is that Yan Yan of the Fourth Hokage? You look so young."

"Isn't the one in the fog younger? It seems that he is not old enough to drink alcohol now, right?" Nagato also lowered his voice and said with a little teasing.

"Ugh...... If you think about it this way, the four generations of Sha Yin's Wind Shadow are only in their twenties, but what about the four generations of Yun Yin's Thunder Shadow? It must be about the same age, right? Except for Iwakure, who is still the third generation of Tsuchikage, the other four generations of Ninja Village are all very young."

"Oh? Do the two little brothers actually know something about other countries in the ninja world?" The owner of Ichiraku Ramen put the ramen they ordered in front of them, and at the same time looked at their special costumes of the Land of the Wind and the two faces that were still very young even after camouflage, and asked in surprise, "Are you already a businessman who travels from south to north at such a young age?" ….

"Follow your family around doing business, and by the way, it's just a long experience," Nagato, the older "brother" in the setting, smiled at Uncle Ichiraku, "I came to the Land of Fire this time, and I wanted to help my family see if there were any items worth bringing to other countries to sell...... Boss, do you have any recommendations?"

"Hahahaha, this topic is not suitable for me to talk about," Uncle Yile touched his head with a smile, "There are too many recommended products in Konoha and the Land of Fire, how can a small businessman like me, who has never been out of Konoha Village in my life, explain it clearly?" If it's because of my immature and incomplete recommendation, brother, that you miss something valuable, won't it be my fault?"

"It's better to have a little recommendation than to look for it aimlessly," Nagato skillfully maintained his persona, ignoring the roll of the eyes thrown at him by the Uchiha Shisui who was eating ramen next to him, "Boss, just tell me what you like better, let's make a reference?"

"This ......"

Uncle Ichiraku was thinking about how to answer, but suddenly there was a commotion on the side of the street, which was not small, and the Uchiha Shisui and Nagato, who were sitting in the Ichiraku ramen shop, subconsciously turned their heads to look at the source of the sound, but saw a figure flying sideways from that direction, and fell not far from the door of the ramen shop with a bang.

It was a young ninja wearing a Konoha forehead guard.

'What's the situation?' Is this the usual level of security in Konoha like this? Nagato reached out and patted Uchiha Shisui on the shoulder, casting a puzzled look at him.

'No, don't act rashly, something is wrong. ，

The Uchiha Shisui waved his hand towards Nagato with an action that was imperceptible to ordinary people, and his eyes looked solemnly at the two figures who were walking towards the Konoha ninja who was sent flying.

"Have you learned not to spread rumors that you don't know where to go, you little devil who only knows how to cause chaos in the village!?"

The younger of the two figures crouched down and grabbed the man who had been knocked away

's collar, looking fiercely at the other party's already bruised eyes, trying to make the other party realize his dissatisfaction at this time, but what he didn't expect was that the person who was beaten just spit out a mouthful of bloody spit to the side, and loudly retorted without any intimidation:

"Give...... Chaos in the village? Don't make people laugh, I'm just revealing to you the true face of your Uchiha clan, letting everyone know that the Uchiha Shisui that you have been unreasonably asking the village to get back at any cost all these years is just the fact that he has already become a dog in the fog."

"What's going on next? Keep beating me until I can't speak anymore? Or do you want to use your Uchiha privileges to put me in a prison for the Konoha Police Force? Oh, no, it shouldn't be called the Konoha Police Force, I think it should be the Uchiha Police Force, right?"

"You!"

The young Uchiha, who was wearing the uniform of the Uchiha police force, blushed with anger and raised his fist to slam the opponent in the face, but before he could exert his strength, another older Uchiha grabbed his arm and shook his head at him.

"Yuki, you can't solve the problem like this."

"But, Uncle Genhuo, he, he's insulting the reputation of all of us in the Uchiha clan!"

"If you punch this one, the negative impact will only be worse than his."

Uchiha Genhuo pulled Uchiha Yuki up from the defeated young ninja, hastily said sorry to the young ninja who was beaten in one eye, and dragged Uchiha Yuki away from the scene with a gloomy face.

"Hmph...... Hum...... You, you Uchiha, the end is coming soon, you wait, you wait."

The beaten young ninja staggered to his feet and left swearing.

And the face of Uchiha Shisui, who was watching from the sidelines, also became less beautiful with his departure.

96.
