Side Story: The Chronicles of the Naka Shrine's Sweeping Monk's Crossover 1
(Part 7)
"Lightning Blade!"
On the unfinished bridge in the Land of Waves, a bolt of lightning rushing forward erupted with a blinding light, charging head-on towards the rogue ninja who was bound by a pack of ninja hounds!
Under the horrified gazes of the others, a figure suddenly appeared in front of Zabuza, forming an ice shield to block the charging Lightning Blade… It was his attendant ninja, Haku!
However, an even faster black shadow landed in front of them, abruptly spreading a pair of pitch-black wings!
The pair of wings, like a black protective shield, blocked the assault of the lightning, saving the lives of Zabuza Momochi and Haku…
The wings slowly extended, revealing the newcomer's face. He looked at Kakashi Hatake, Zabuza Momochi, and the others, then suddenly smiled. "Hey, I really didn't expect this… Even in this ninja world, there's an inescapable cursed fate between you all!"
"Oh, another enemy..." Kakashi Hatake nonchalantly retracted his hand. At this moment, the Konoha "Copy Ninja" looked extremely confident, unafraid of any enemy.
But after seeing the newcomer's face clearly, Kakashi Hatake's eyes suddenly tightened, as if seeing something incredible. "You are…"
A full head of black hair was tightly bound within a headband. Beneath that unique Konoha swirl headband was a pair of large, bright eyes…
The corners of his mouth turned up, forming a gentle smile. "Or have you already forgotten? I am Shisui… Shisui Uchiha."
Thump! Thump-thump!
The sound of a pounding heart reached the ears of the ninjas with their sharp hearing…
After losing track of Haku, Naruto Uzumaki flickered to appear beside his supervising Jonin, looking at the man in front of him with confusion. "Teacher Kakashi, why is he wearing our village's headband? Shisui Uchiha… is he a ninja from our village?"
"Naruto, stay back!"
Kakashi Hatake protected his disciple, taking half a step back, his entire body instantly tensing. He stared at the man in front of him and said in a deep voice, "…Who on earth are you!"
If he remembered correctly, six years ago, the man known as the strongest Uchiha, Shisui Uchiha, had already committed suicide!
Although Shisui's body was never found, any ninja who faked their death to flee Konoha would be classified as a rogue ninja! The person before him must have ulterior motives!
"Oh? Are you saying I was also supposed to have died during Itachi Uchiha's clan massacre?" Shisui chuckled a few times, then suddenly said, "That seems pretty normal! After all, no one in the clan should have been able to defeat that kid!"
He had only been in this ninja world for a few days and had only gotten some gossip… such as the Uchiha clan massacre. When he suddenly heard this news, it had scared Shisui!
If this ninja world's Itachi Uchiha was a demon who slaughtered his own clan, how could he, a mere environmental cleaner of the Naka Shrine, possibly beat that guy?
Shisui Uchiha had been cautiously lying low in the ninja world, gathering all kinds of intelligence through small channels. He had waited until he heard that a Konoha ninja named Kakashi Hatake had come to the Land of Waves, which meant that Kakashi would inevitably bring his student, Sasuke Uchiha!
He truly hadn't expected…
The Sasuke Uchiha from the other ninja world, who had always been looked down upon by the clan members, would actually become the hope for reviving the Uchiha clan in this world…
This was truly absurd…
Looking at it this way, the Uchiha clan was definitely finished…
The problem was, Shisui Uchiha had used his own flawed dōjutsu, Kotoamatsukami, to forcibly change his own will, replacing his will with: Revive the Uchiha Clan! At all costs! (Killing intent.jpg)
But after seeing Sasuke Uchiha fighting Haku, Shisui once again experienced the despair of facing the crow. It would be a bit difficult for him to revive the Uchiha in this ninja world…
After a brief exchange, Shisui Uchiha stated his identity, saying he just wanted to see Sasuke's condition. Kakashi Hatake raised his objections…
Shisui could only demonstrate to Kakashi's students what a high-end ninja battle looked like, and not the chicken-pecking between Kakashi and Zabuza Momochi.
"Lord Zabuza, do you know this man named Shisui Uchiha?"
"He also has the title 'Shisui of the Body Flicker.' His figure can appear anywhere on the battlefield. At the same time, he is also known by the Hidden Mist Village as the strongest genjutsu ninja!"
When the Shisui of this world was alive, his most common job was to suppress the invading ninjas of the Hidden Mist… And Zabuza Momochi, who had graduated ten years ago, had unfortunately been one of those who had been shouted at by his captain that they had encountered Shisui of the Body Flicker and had to retreat immediately.
Haku looked at the battlefield nervously and whispered, "Who will win…"
Zabuza Momochi shook his head. He couldn't understand a battle between Sharingan users, but he knew one thing: if he didn't escape now, he would have no chance!
Unfortunately, it was already too late…
Shisui Uchiha appeared in front of Zabuza Momochi with a full smile. "I need your help with some things… The location of the Land of Waves is very good…"
Back then, a certain dead-faced strategist had started with only a little boy named Haku and had built the Land of Waves into the organization's base… He would do the same!
Cold sweat beaded on the Mist rogue ninja's forehead. He gripped his Executioner's Blade tightly. "In such a short time, Kakashi Hatake has already been defeated by you?"
"Perhaps?"
The sweeping monk of Naka Shrine tilted his head. To resolve things quickly with Kakashi, he had used his Body Flicker Technique, and in the blink of an eye, had used a continuous assault to pierce Kakashi's shoulder with his ninja sword!
Shisui Uchiha pointed to a large boat sliding under the bridge and said softly, "You go and take care of that Gato fellow's group. No problem, right?"
Zabuza Momochi: "…No problem."
Although that was the client who was paying him, this fellow Shisui Uchiha had been his nightmare since he had become a ninja…
Shisui's figure instantly vanished and reappeared beside Kakashi Hatake. He pressed Naruto Uzumaki to the ground with one hand and said in a low voice, "Can we talk properly now?"
Kakashi Hatake nodded weakly. "Of course we can…"
Of his three subordinates, that girl Sakura wasn't even qualified to be a cheerleader right now. Sasuke was still unconscious, and Naruto was just a child… Even if he could unleash the power of the Nine-Tails, it was hard to say if he could defeat the man in front of him.
The Shisui Uchiha from the other ninja world was so strong! Both his aggressiveness and his strength were far beyond his estimations…
Team 7 was assembled.
Everyone's gaze was gathered on the still-unconscious Sasuke.
"A one-tomoe Sharingan in the left eye, a two-tomoe in the right. This talent is actually quite a bit worse than our world's Sasuke…" Shisui Uchiha's brow furrowed slightly, and he sighed from time to time. "Especially since that Sasuke doesn't even care much about the power of the Sharingan…"
"Sasuke-kun is the most amazing!"
The pink-haired Sakura waved her fist, defending the boy of her dreams. "He was the valedictorian at the academy! He was number one for all six years!"
"He still stayed in the academy for six years?"
Shisui immediately extracted the key information, his brow furrowing even tighter. "At this age, Kakashi-senpai should have already been promoted to Jonin, right?"
Sakura Haruno: "…"
Naruto scratched his head. "Was Teacher Kakashi that amazing?"
The white-haired ninja shook his head and explained to his disciples in a low voice, "That was because of the cruelty of the war. The village needed fresh ninja blood to send to the battlefield. Even a Jonin was not very conspicuous in the Great Ninja War…"
"That's still amazing!" Naruto gave a thumbs-up.
"Indeed, being a Jonin isn't really that amazing…"
Shisui was always able to subtly extract the key words. "The problem is, our world's Itachi Uchiha was already a Hokage candidate at the age of twelve, and he should also be the strongest ninja in the village… The Itachi of this ninja world shouldn't be much worse…"
Kakashi Hatake: "…"
How could he even continue this conversation!
It was hard enough to bring up a topic, only to have it slapped down by the other person, and then to stick his face out to be hit again!
Kakashi could only forcefully change the subject. "However, Itachi Uchiha is now an S-rank rogue ninja of Konoha. He even slaughtered his parents and fellow clansmen before defecting from the village…"
"That just proves his strength is sufficient…"
Shisui shook his head. He hadn't believed it at first either, thinking it was slander by Konoha. But the reputation of "Itachi of the Sharingan" was widespread, so he had no choice but to believe it!
Shisui thought for a moment and continued, "And I am not the strongest ninja in the Uchiha. Even with the enhancement of the Mangekyo Sharingan."
"Fugaku-senpai, that is, Itachi and Sasuke's father, also possesses a Mangekyo Sharingan with even stronger ocular power and a higher level of development…"
This news was being revealed for the first time!
Kakashi's expression suddenly changed. He abruptly remembered something from the past, gritted his teeth, and said in a deep voice, "Twelve years ago, the Nine-Tails' Rampage broke out in our village. Many people died as a result. Among them, the Fourth Hokage and his wife sacrificed themselves to protect the village…"
"It wasn't him."
Shisui looked at Kakashi and suddenly showed an inscrutable smile. "It's better if you don't know who caused the Nine-Tails' Rampage, Kakashi-senpai…"
"So you're saying the Nine-Tails' Rampage really was caused by someone? That person killed my teacher and many innocent people in the village…" Kakashi clenched his fists, letting the newly bandaged wound on his shoulder split open. He continued in a low voice, "Tell me!"
Shisui tilted his head with great interest. "What are the terms?"
The white-haired ninja trembled. "…As long as it's not betraying the village, make any demand you want! I believe that you, who came from Konoha, wouldn't want to harm the village of another world, right?"
"Let me think…"
Shisui's large eyes suddenly brightened. He smiled and whispered in Kakashi's ear, "Kakashi-senpai, I wonder, in this world, have you ever participated in a plot to assassinate the Third Hokage?"
Kakashi's heart pounded violently. "…"
This person before me is truly a visitor from another world! No matter how much he fabricated, there were some things that only certain people knew, and it was impossible for Shisui Uchiha to know that!
The plot to assassinate the Third Hokage was something that the village's Hokage Advisor and Root's leader, Danzo Shimura, had lured him into!
If he hadn't seen the error of his ways, and if the Third Hokage hadn't coincidentally been there to enlighten him, he would have already participated in that treasonous affair!
Shisui Uchiha smiled and nodded at him, his appearance extremely kind. "That's right. It's the person you're thinking of…"
