"Are the Ninja we hired really reliable?" a staff member whispered, pointing at Naruto.
The blonde boy had been sitting cross-legged by the ship's railing since dawn, as if he had turned into a statue. "That kid has been sleeping since the morning, and it's already evening," an old sailor remarked while tidying ropes. "Maybe they're rotating shifts? If they stay awake all day, they'll be sleepy when they stand guard at night."
"Sensing Kakashi's arrival, Naruto slowly withdrew from the Kagura Mind's Eye state and opened his eyes.
"Are you practicing Sensing Ninjutsu?" Kakashi asked, placing a steaming bento box on Naruto's lap.
"Yes, it's a secret technique of the Uzumaki Clan," Naruto replied.
Kakashi looked thoughtful. As an Elite Jonin, he knew that the Kagura Mind's Eye was the pinnacle of scouting. Once activated, the user could grasp all movement within a radius of tens of kilometers. "Eat first. You should rest tonight; I'll take the watch."
The ship slowly sailed into the freezing waters of the Land of Snow. Everyone held their breath as a towering iceberg appeared like a giant sapphire barrier, completely blocking the route.
"Director, what should we do?" the assistant asked.
The director's eyes widened. "Change the script! This cliff is the perfect filming location granted to us by the God of Cinema! Everyone, prepare to land!"
Kakashi's expression turned serious. "Sasuke, follow me and stay alert. Naruto, use your Sensing Ninjutsu to scout. This iceberg appeared too abruptly."
As soon as Naruto stepped onto the peak of the snowy mountain, the Nine-Tails' low growl rang in his mind: "Naruto, ten o'clock. Malice."
Naruto condensed a wooden sword using Wood Release and leaped toward the target. Hidden under a white camouflage cloth beneath a pile of snow was a hidden scout. Naruto didn't hesitate. He swung his blade, imbued with Wind Release chakra, slicing through the snow and the enemy's body in one fluid motion.
"Ah!" A scream echoed through the silent valley. Naruto delivered a second, fatal blow to the head. Blood bloomed a blinding red on the pure white snow. If you can survive being sliced open once and stabbed in the head a second time, I'd concede defeat, Naruto thought coldly.
"Avalanche!"
On a hilltop not far away, a purple-haired woman stood up, staring in Naruto's direction. Simultaneously, the snowdrifts near the film crew exploded as a muscular figure emerged.
Kakashi's gaze sharpened. The shout of "Avalanche" triggered a memory from his past: Roga Nadare and his team.
"Sasuke, Sakura, cover everyone and retreat back to the ship!" Kakashi ordered. "Leave this to me!"
Before he could finish, Mizore Fuyuma's massive body erupted with speed, charging toward the terrified actress. On the other side, Fubuki Kakuyoku glared at Naruto and also rushed toward the ship.
A wooden sword cut through the air, embedding itself in the snow directly in her path. The next second, Naruto appeared out of thin air beside the weapon, picking it up to block her. Although his Flying Thunder God still required a moment of focus, it was more than enough for this short-distance jump.
Kakashi engaged Mizore. He realized the woman's earlier shout was a lament—Naruto had just instantly killed her teammate, Roga Nadare, before the battle had even truly begun.
Well done, Naruto! Kakashi thought. He noticed the Snow Ninja were wearing strange, mechanical plates over their clothes. Is that... Chakra Armor?
