Rumors...or not?
...
- "Hey, did you hear that rumor?" Asked one of the men in the pub.
His drinking companion grinned - "Haha, who hasn't heard. Someone important hired mercenaries and went with all the guards, they were attacked by bandits and ninjas, but they killed them all. They even killed stray ninjas and bandits along the way."
His friend grinned because he realized that he knew more than his friend - "Yes, that's true, but I heard something else."
The people around who heard them also became interested -"Hey, why did you stop, tell me".
Someone said it first and the rest also began to assent.
The man turned around and leaned against the bar counter - "Well, I don't even know, I don't think I'm drunk enough to say that."
- "Well, you're a crook," but several people from the crowd still ordered the man drinks
The bartender quickly served several drinks
- "Oh, there are still good people," someone said from the crowd to those who ordered a drink for the man
The man drank one of the mugs in one gulp and, grinning, began to tell the crowd and his friend
The bartender was listening too
- "Well, the thing is that they say that one guy stands out among this group. He always takes on ninjas, whether hired or stray, no one could defeat him. He destroyed everyone. They say it comes very easily to him. He pierces the skulls of his enemies with nunchucks and his fists easily break arms and legs."
The man drank another half a glass
-"They say that he is so fast that even an experienced ninja cannot see and predict where he will be. He has strange weapons, such as red nunchucks that are very durable and strikes with kunai, katanas, axes and hammers couldn't even scratch it. And there is also an incredibly sharp blade, they say that there is nothing that it cannot cut. Only a few survived his journey. His enemies could not do more than a simple bruise; he simply destroyed them before that. But what is remarkable is that no one has seen him use elemental ninjutsu. And there are two options: 1 he is a specialist only in tightjutsu 2 his jutsu is so powerful that no one has yet lived to tell about it. Oh my throat is already dry from so many words".
The man quickly drank another mug.
All this time he was waving and gesticulating with his hands as he spoke.
While he was talking it seemed like he was talking about an old friend or rival.
Placing his mug on the bar counter, he continued, "They say that in the eyes of a ninja, he is practically invisible. He is fast and deadly. His ability to kill ninjas is exceptional. They say that before this escort mission he killed a bunch of other ninjas for money. He has exceptional skill with weapons. In front of him, the bodies of the Ninja are torn like paper. He has already killed so many ninjas that they called him the Hunter".
The man drank another glass and burped.
The crowd of people heard him all this time. Someone from the crowd shouted, "How do you even know that, how do we know if you're lying?".
The man grinned.
The same man from the crowd continued - "Who is your source? What if you're lying to us, we need proof!
The man grinned even more, it seemed as if his face would crack from his grin -"I confirmed that it is really you, you know, you should reduce your curiosity and not poke your nose into any business that you find".
Then his eyes glowed red, three magatama appeared in his eyes.
Then almost the entire pub was engulfed in genjutsu and they fell asleep.
Another man came up and tied up the man that the source of the rumors was asking.
The man with red eyes looked at the curious person from the crowd - "As for the source, it is myself, I have seen and experienced it myself."
It was Takihiro Uchiha, He and his team were looking for spies from different countries in the land of fire, but only high-level spies, otherwise why would they send an almost elite jounin on such missions?
Takihiro was surprised how this guy was able to hide for so long, yet with such pressure and curiosity this man is easy to notice.
Takihiro smiled and then looked at two people, a man and a woman, "This was the last one, now we are going back to Konoha."
The man and woman smiled, the man came closer - "And yet, captain, why did you have to tell so much? After all, it's just a rumor."
Takihiro smiled - "Just a rumor, right? Ha ha ha" After Takihiro laughed, he walked in a certain direction.
...
Peace reigned in Konoha as always.
It's been 11 months since Namikaze Minato became Hokage.
Changes are happening more frequently and on a larger scale. As for Minato himself and his family? They are preparing for an imminent birth. And another thing is clans...
At this time, the second son of the head of the Uchiha Clan was born.
At the moment, Uchiha Itachi was holding his brother in his arms and smiling. His mother was in the kitchen preparing dinner for the evening, and his father, as always, sat silently.
The Hyuga clan was also preparing for the birth of the heir/heiress of the Hyuga clan
...
In an unknown place overlooking Konoha, a man with a tiger mask appeared - "Soon"
...
At the Konoha cemetery, the silver haired boy bowed slightly to two graves that already had flowers that he had brought. He told some news, but that was all, then he went home, but a green figure caught up with him and began to convince him of something.
...
In some gambling house, the door was broken, from which a woman with blond hair and a huge... ahem... ran out, and behind her a black-haired girl
...
The country of waves was already closed and its import and export was controlled by Gato. Everyone has forgotten about the mercenary who once worked for him.
...
A man with long spiky white hair and the word "oil" on his forehead protector was walking in an unknown forest.
Soon he disappeared in white smoke and found himself in a colorful and extremely unusual place in which two toads, green and pink, were waiting for him - "Well, Jiraiya, it's time to start sage mode."
...
In another forest, a man with pale skin and snake eyes was watching various children with two red dots on their foreheads
...
At the entrance to Konoha, a large group of people were waiting for permission to enter. In the group were "Samurai" an old man, two children, two women and one man with a scar near his mouth
Touji looked around the entrance to Konoha - "It was a long time ago"
