Chapter 311: Al Pacino?
"You two go help as well and deal with those goblins."
Uchiha Fugaku said to the two Hyūga jōnin.
"Yes, Hokage-sama!"
Shibata Hyūga and Hyūga Yokoyama responded in unison.
Then the two of them rushed forward, quickly overtaking Naruto and Sasuke.
Although Naruto and Sasuke already possessed strength beyond that of a chūnin, they had yet to reach the jōnin level.
Seeing the two Hyūga uncles rush ahead, Naruto shouted,
"Uncle! Over there! Save them quickly!"
The direction he pointed to was exactly where the women and children were being chased.
Hyūga Yokoyama acknowledged and immediately rushed in that direction, while Shibata Hyūga headed toward the farmers fighting the goblins. With his arrival, all the goblins confronting the farmers were instantly eliminated.
The farmers finally breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Shibata Hyūga with gratitude.
"Thank you, sir! Thank you, sir!"
They spoke in unison. One of them suddenly knelt down.
"Sir, please save my son!"
He kept kowtowing while pointing toward the place where the women and children were fleeing.
Shibata Hyūga glanced over and said calmly,
"Don't worry. My companion has already gone. Look."
The farmer looked over and indeed saw someone moving like a whirlwind, instantly defeating the pursuing goblins.
His wife and son were saved.
Only then did his heart finally settle.
At the same time, Shibata Hyūga noticed something else — the language these people spoke was almost identical to theirs, differing only by a slight accent.
Hokage-sama had said this was another world, and yet…
Is this really just a coincidence?
This information had to be reported.
As this thought arose, Shibata Hyūga saw Hokage-sama approaching. Uchiha Itachi and Uchiha Izumi also appeared to have joined the rescue efforts.
Shibata Hyūga quickly walked over.
It was only a few steps away.
"Hey, sir! We haven't properly thanked you yet—!"
The kneeling farmer quickly called out when he saw Shibata Hyūga leaving.
Shibata Hyūga turned back and replied simply,
"Not leaving."
The villagers then watched as Shibata Hyūga hurried forward. At the same time, they saw Uchiha Fugaku walking toward them.
Immediately after, they saw the man who had just saved them kneel on one knee before Fugaku.
Their eyes widened.
They instantly understood — this man was of even higher status.
"Hokage-sama, the villagers' language is exactly the same as ours,"
Shibata Hyūga reported quickly.
"Mm."
Uchiha Fugaku responded calmly, his expression unchanged. He had already suspected this.
"Anything else?"
A trace of embarrassment appeared on Shibata Hyūga's face.
"No… nothing else."
He had forgotten to ask further questions.
"Let's go ask them directly."
Uchiha Fugaku smiled faintly, patted Shibata Hyūga on the shoulder, and indicated that it was no big deal.
"Yes, sir."
Uchiha Fugaku glanced ahead.
"Oh, they're coming over themselves."
He stayed where he was, waiting.
"Sir, thank you for saving our village. On behalf of everyone here, please accept our gratitude. We insist that you stay for a meal!"
An elderly man said respectfully.
Uchiha Fugaku shook his head.
"No need. We still have matters to attend to."
He still had limited time for his mission.
"Sir, without you, our village would already have—"
The man tried to insist.
"Wait," Uchiha Fugaku said. "I have some questions."
The man immediately stopped.
"We came from a very distant place and lost our way. What is this place called?"
The villagers found nothing strange about this.
The elderly man replied,
"This is the northern border of the Kingdom, under the rule of Al Pacino."
"Al Pacino?"
Even Uchiha Fugaku frowned slightly.
He searched his memory but found no familiar anime corresponding to that name.
"Who is the Hero of your world?" he asked.
The elderly man looked apologetic.
"I'm sorry, sir. I don't know. Perhaps you can find your answer in Al Pacino itself. I've been there — I can guide you."
Uchiha Fugaku decided immediately.
"How far is Al Pacino from here?"
