Naruto: Scourge of the Ninja World

Chapter 48: Chapter 48: Hatake Sakumo! How Dare You Ambush a Junior Like Me!!!



Leaving the Hyuga clan grounds, Gekko Chizan led Pakura toward the Uchiha clan grounds. Pakura remained silent the entire way.

As someone who also possessed a kekkei genkai, Pakura was well aware of the power of those eyes.

Suddenly, Pakura realized that the person in front of her was also a kekkei genkai ninja, but she still didn't know what his kekkei genkai was.

"Chizan, what about you? What's your kekkei genkai?"

Gekko Chizan stopped in his tracks, giving Pakura a playful look.

"My kekkei genkai? Take a guess."

"I'm not guessing. Just tell me already."

Pakura urged impatiently, but in the next second, her eyes widened as Gekko Chizan vanished right before her.

Even his presence was gone!

"Chizan! Where did you go?!"

"Me? I'm right next to you."

Suddenly, Gekko Chizan's voice sounded in her ear, startling Pakura into dodging to the side.

"Hahaha, scared ya?"

"This is my kekkei genkai. It's how I managed to snatch you from Sunagakure."

Releasing Transparent Release, Gekko Chizan reappeared in front of Pakura.

Pakura stared at him, her mind a swirl of emotions.

A concealment-based kekkei genkai, huh...

Not just his form, but even his presence was hidden. No wonder he could get so close without being detected...

"Transparent Release, my kekkei genkai. It lets me hide perfectly, undetectable to anyone."

"Even the Hyuga and Uchiha's dojutsu can't see through it."

At this, Gekko Chizan raised his head with pride.

But just as he started showing off, an uninvited guest arrived.

"Oh? Who's this guy spouting such big talk?"

"My Uchiha Sharingan can see through any technique. Who do you think you are?"

A sharp shout came from behind them.

When they turned around, they saw two ninja bearing the Uchiha fan crest, glaring at them with displeasure.

"Well, this is trouble..."

If you asked who in Konoha was the hardest to deal with, Gekko Chizan would say Danzo without hesitation.

But if you asked who was the most unreasonable, it'd definitely be the Uchiha.

In their eyes, they were second only to the heavens, and no one could match them.

"Who do we have here? Isn't this Gekko Chizan?"

"A mere nobody from a fallen clan dares to challenge the Uchiha's authority?"

The Third Great Ninja War hadn't started yet, so the Uchiha's status wasn't as diminished as it would be in the future.

Right now, they were still Konoha's top clan, brimming with arrogance.

The newcomers carried themselves with swagger, practically looking down their noses.

They were the younger generation of the Uchiha, contemporaries of Gekko Chizan.

"Uchiha Arashi, Uchiha Makito, you two have sharp ears, huh?"

"Hearing me from that far? I'm starting to think you didn't awaken the Sharingan but the Share-ear."

Gekko Chizan wasn't one to hold his temper.

He lived by the rule: respect me an inch, and I'll respect you a foot.

But if someone came looking for trouble, he wasn't a pushover.

"Jerk! You looking for a spar?!"

"I'll show you the Uchiha's authority isn't something a third-rate ninja like you can challenge!"

Say what you will, their sharp tongues were something else.

Calling him a third-rate ninja nearly fried Gekko Chizan's brain.

Pakura, standing nearby, burst out laughing.

Gekko Chizan, a jonin personally promoted by the Hokage, was reduced to a third-rate ninja in the Uchiha's mouths.

"Fine, I'm a third-rate ninja, huh? Come on, I'll make you call me daddy."

Gekko Chizan knew full well you couldn't reason with the Uchiha.

Might as well let fists do the talking.

"Hmph! Don't say we're bullying you. I alone am enough to handle you!"

"Give me a break!"

Gekko Chizan sneered, and in the next second, he moved.

Transparent Release activated, and he vanished before their eyes.

"Hmph, parlor tricks. Sharingan!"

Uchiha Arashi, unfazed, activated his Sharingan to track Gekko Chizan's whereabouts.

At seventeen, Uchiha Arashi already had a three-tomoe Sharingan, a testament to his talent.

But unfortunately, his opponent was someone who prioritized safety and stealth above all else.

With Transparent Release active, Gekko Chizan had no fear of the Sharingan, casually strolling toward Uchiha Arashi.

Meanwhile, Uchiha Arashi, after activating his Sharingan, was utterly baffled.

Where'd he go? Why can't I see him?

This shouldn't be possible. Even if I can't see the person, I should at least see their chakra!

"Hmph, you're mouthing off to me? Even if Fugaku himself showed up, I wouldn't be scared."

"Let alone a lackey like you!"

The pinnacle of the Uchiha's younger generation was Fugaku; the rest didn't even register in Gekko Chizan's eyes.

His voice rang out, but his form remained unseen.

Even Uchiha Makito was stunned, activating his own Sharingan and still failing to spot Gekko Chizan.

"Call me daddy now, and I'll let you two off. Otherwise... heh heh heh..."

A menacing voice echoed in their ears.

"No way!"

"Makito! Cover one side each, watch for him!"

Uchiha Arashi and Uchiha Makito instantly went back-to-back, ready to defend.

"Alright, you asked for it."

Gekko Chizan leisurely walked up to them.

Then, he released Transparent Release, appearing just as the two were about to react.

Whoosh!

Whoosh!

Both figures vanished instantly.

It was Gekko Chizan's Flying Thunder God Technique, teleporting them away.

As for where they went... heh heh heh...

"Chizan, where'd you send them??"

"How'd they just disappear?"

The sudden vanishing act completely shattered Pakura's worldview.

"Them? I sent them somewhere fitting."

"Let's go. We're skipping the Uchiha visit. I'm afraid we'd get in but not out."

"I'll take you to Konoha's best ramen instead! Guaranteed delicious!"

After the Uchiha interruption, Pakura had a rough idea of how they operated and no longer insisted on visiting their grounds.

Gekko Chizan led her to Ichiraku Ramen instead.

At that moment, Gekko Chizan received two notification sounds.

[Ding! Detected that the host sent Uchiha Arashi and Uchiha Makito to the women's bathhouse, causing a feminine uproar. Special reward: Physique +1]

[Ding! Uchiha Arashi and Uchiha Makito were spotted by passersby while fleeing, instantly becoming infamous. Special reward: Physique +1]

Hmph, take that, punks!

It was just a shame he couldn't go see it himself. Tsk tsk, maybe they're soaking wet and draped in bras right now. Man, it's been a while since I collected material. I'll have to find a day to gather some!

Clenching his fist, feeling his physique grow stronger, Gekko Chizan was quite satisfied.

...\

A few days later, Gekko Chizan was invited to visit the Hatake household.

Stepping into the Hatake home, despite Hatake Sakumo's fame across Konoha, their house wasn't large.

It was about the same as the Gekko household. Both were fallen clans with only a few members left, so a big house wasn't necessary.

Of course, he had no idea Pakura was right beside him—this line is completely redundant, and I don't know why I wrote it...

"So this is the home of Konoha's White Fang? Looks pretty ordinary."

"Tch, what do you know? True strong ninja don't care for extravagance!"

Pakura shut up instantly. Over the past few days, she'd learned that no matter what she said, Gekko Chizan could counter with his razor-sharp wit.

Her verbal skills were nowhere near his.

"Chizan-sensei, you're here."

"This must be Pakura-sensei. Obito and Rin told me about you. The Firework Technique, huh? Impressive Fire Style Ninjutsu. If I get the chance, I'd love to spar with you."

The one greeting them was Kakashi, who'd grown a bit taller since they last met.

"Yo, Kakashi! How's it going? Promoted to chunin yet?"

Teasing with his words, Gekko Chizan's hands swiftly came together, forming a tiger seal in an instant.

Kakashi sensed danger and quickly retreated.

But he underestimated Gekko Chizan's speed. With a Body Flicker Technique, Chizan was already behind him.

"Here's my move, Kakashi!"

"Konoha Style! Taijutsu Secret Technique! Thousand Years of Death!"

Kakashi: !!!???

Ow!!

As the Thousand Years of Death struck, Kakashi was gifted a butt-first flight package!

"Hahahaha! Kakashi, you're still too green!"

"Let me tell you, even Lord Sakumo took a Thousand Years of Death from me without flinching. You've got a long way to go!"

Pakura was dumbfounded... What even was this...

[Ding! Detected that the host used Thousand Years of Death on Hatake Kakashi, increasing his obsession with the technique. Special reward: Hand Seals +3]

Oh? Jackpot! Bullying named characters really does pay off!

But before he could celebrate too long, a chill suddenly enveloped him.

In the next second, he bolted, but it was too late.

"Konoha Style! Taijutsu Secret Technique! Thousand Years of Death!"

The same shout, the same move, only this time the caster was Hatake Sakumo.

And the target was now Gekko Chizan.

Hatake Sakumo's speed was blinding, so fast that Gekko Chizan didn't even react before he was hit!

Ow!!

"Hatake Sakumo! How dare you ambush a junior like me!!!"

"Ow, ow, ow!!!"
