About four kilometre from the village of Iwa our protagonist was walking on a clear road through rocky formations, he stopped front a stone bridge for a few minutes more as if waiting for someone to arrive.
"5s...7s...8s...12s...15s...17s...30s...41s..63s."
Then suddenly about ten ninja wearing Iwa's frontal protection coming out of the rock formations surrounded him.
"Konoha's Ninja, don't make a move!" Says a Kunoichi with black hair dressed in the common red outfit of Iwa's ninja with a kunai in her hand.
"It took them 63 seconds to feel my presence, this bridge must be the limit of the detection formation." Nori thought before says
"On behalf of the Land of Fire and third Hokage, I would like a private meeting with Tsuchikage-Sama."
All Iwa's ninjas looked at him with a murderous look except for the Kunoichi, she closed her eyes for a few minutes before reopening them
"Search him!" Said she.
Nori did not resist and let two ninjas search his bag and clothes.
"It carries nothing but a sword, a few scrolls and provisions." Says one of them to the kunoichi.
"If you really come in the name of the land of fire then follow us without resistance." Says she as she walks to the bridge, Nori followed her, leaving Iwa's other ninjas back at their works.
"1s...10s...30...50s...60s...120s..."
Nori silently counted the secondes as he followed the Kunoichi, the village of Iwa was a village with a rather special topography, the rocky mountain ranges that surround the village provide a natural stronghold, the village's infrastructure is built from much of the surrounding rock and stone, shaped into tower-like structures that are inter-connected by a network of bridges.
"360s..390s...420s..."
And when Nori counted up to 481, they finally arrived at a large door made of Peter with the kanji "earth" which opened slowly, then came out of the door three people.
A fairly large man with a square face, another thin man with purple hair wearing a scarf with multiple scars on his face and between them was a rather old man with a triangular beard and a moustache that had angular corners, a big red nose and thick eyebrows, the top of his head was completely bald, although, he had long white hair on the lower-half of his head which is styled in a traditional chonmage hair cut, the back of which was tied with a yellow ribbon into a topknot.
It was the third Tsuchikage, Onoki.
The three stared Nori with a careful look a moment before Onoki said
"What message have send this bum Hiruzen, hurry up, young man, I'm a very busy man, I don't have time to waste."
Upon hearing that, Nori did not speak, he removed the scroll that had given him third Hokage and threw it at the Tsuchikage.
The man with scars next to the Tsuchikage grabbed him and after examining the parchment for a few seconds gave it to the Tsuchikage.
"It's not a trap."
Onoki then took the scroll and after having read it, he began to laugh.
"Sarutobi you really think I'm going to stop the war now with all the losses Iwa has suffered!"
Then he will tear apart the scroll and turn around to leave.
"Kill him! It will be a good answer for Konoha"
The Kunoichi who accompanied Nori withdrew a Kunai so early and using Body flicker appeared behind him wanting to stab him.
But in a blink of an eye Nori disappeared from her field of vision and then reappeared the second one which followed a meter behind her by sheathe his sword.
The Kunoichi's head fell out of her body creat a geyser of blood before rolling on the ground, stopping the steps of Onoki and the two men who followed him.
"Should I take this attack and your actions more like a refusal Onoki-Sama ." Says Nori as his right eye gave off an aura of absolutely terrifying serenity.
Onoki turned around and looked at him for a moment but this time with caution
"I remember that now, you're Konoha's brat who killed Chiyo and kill many Suna ninja."
"Then I must take this as a refusal." Says Nori
"It doesn't matter anymore, kid, since Konoha decides to send me a ninja with such a great talent to kill him before he reaches his maximum, so I can only accept." Says Onoki with a big smile
Then Onoki floated slowly in the air and crossed his palms.
"Jinton : Detachment of the Primitive World Technique!"
A white light appeared in Onoki's palms and arrived almost instantly in front of Nori before materializing a transparent cube of about two meters.
"Shave"
Nori moved back almost instinctively, all that was inside the cube was then pulverized before disappearing.
Nori without turning around then began to flee, this fighting was fundamentally useless, he would certainly not win on enemy territory, he had already accomplished his mission, he now simply had to return to Konoha.
But soon he was surrounded by a transparent cube.
"Shave!"
He again dodged Onoki's attack that was floating behind him, tirelessly pursuing him.
"I am about eight minutes from the bridge since the attack of Onoki, 7s have passed, the intervention capacity of the other Iwa ninjas is 63s, to avoid the encircling, I must execute the eight-minute journey in 56 seconds (63s-7s)."Thinked Nori as a slightly blue smoke began to emanated from his legs.
"Gear One: Shave."
Then his body was propelled forward, leaving only the shadow of his silhouette and some sonic boom.
"Shit! How does Konoha feed this kid?"
Thought Onoki floating in the sky and seeing the silhouette of Nori overtake him and disappear on the horizon.
"But I haven't said my last word." then he executed several seals
"Akuta!"
