Naruto: I am Ninja World Ghost Story, who are you?

The team consisted of two grass ninjas in their early twenties and a genin named Uzumaki Kana who was actually twenty-five years old.

"Now even Kusagakure dares to shit on our heads!" Tobirama Senju was furious and prepared to roll up his sleeves and go to Kusagakure to snatch people away.

Kakashi quickly stopped him: "Second Hokage, after all, Uzumaki Kana has already registered as a ninja of another country, and secondly, the Uzumaki clan was wiped out because of the incident in the Land of Whirlpools."

Even if the Uzumaki clan joins Kusagakure now, it's her choice. Forcing them to join will only cause diplomatic disputes.

Upon hearing this, Tobirama Senju nodded slightly in understanding, but still couldn't help but sigh, "Let's ask when we take the Chunin Exams."

"The village is willing to accept as long as the other party is willing."

Kakashi nodded in agreement. At worst, they could exchange some benefits to shut up the Grass Village and prevent other ninja villages from finding an opportunity to start a war.

Next, the list moved to Takigakure Village, which was an ordinary team, then to Otogakure Village... and finally to the list of their own village.

Just then, the secret agents outside walked in in a panic.

"Something terrible has happened...outside, outside..."

"What's wrong? How can a member of the Anbu be so flustered? This is unbecoming." Tobirama Senju frowned slightly.

The ANBU ninja calmed himself down and explained, "Actually, the Fugaku clan chief said that the Uchiha clan wants to send a small team to participate in the Chunin Exams, and they are going upstairs to submit the list."

"Oh...I see. Hmm?! Who did you say?!" Tobirama Senju couldn't help but repeat the question.

Kakashi was also stunned and stood up from his seat.

Before the Anbu could speak, Fugaku appeared and greeted everyone, "Fifth and Second Generation Lords."

A chill ran through everyone's bodies, from head to toe.

Tobirama Senju maintained his smile, looked at Fugaku, who had once sacrificed himself to protect Itachi and Sasuke, and asked, "Clan Head Fugaku, what brings you here to sit idly in the Hokage Building today?"

Fugaku smiled slightly: "Didn't I hear the village is going to have the Chunin Exams soon?"

“I have a team that I can join.”

"Oh? I wonder who it is?" Tobirama Senju maintained his composure and asked seriously.

As long as it doesn't exceed 'preconceived notions', there will absolutely be no problem with normal chatting.

But Tobirama Senju couldn't help getting a wet patch on his back.

"Didn't Izumi from our clan just graduate last year? She's still a genin."

Following them were Uchiha Rei and Uchiha Ao, who also passed the Security Department's assessment.

I plan to have them form a team to participate in this Chunin Exams.

“Okay!” Tobirama Senju agreed immediately. “Do you have the list?”

"Yes." Fugaku Uchiha handed the list of applicants, including their basic information and photos, to Tobirama Senju.

Tobirama Senju took the document handed to him by the Fugaku clan chief's 'empty' right hand and examined it carefully.

Name: Uchiha Izumi

【Gender: Female】

[Age: 13 years old]

[Specialties: Shuriken manipulation, single-tomoe Sharingan, Fire Release ninjutsu]

Name: Uchiha Rei

【Gender: Female】

[Age: 12 years old]

[Specialties: Shuriken manipulation, Fire Release ninjutsu, Swordsmanship]

Name: Uchiha Ao

【Sex: Male】

[Age: 13 years old]

[Specialties: Shuriken manipulation, single-tomoe Sharingan, Fire Release and Lightning Release ninjutsu]

After reading it, Tobirama Senju praised, "As expected of the Uchiha clan, these three alone are many times stronger than the village's newly graduated genin. With you all, we will definitely enhance Konoha's prestige."

"Thank you for your kind words, Second Generation." Fugaku bowed slightly and said with a smile, then tentatively asked, "So it's settled then?"

"It's settled, it's settled. With you all here, this time it's definitely going to be a sure thing." No matter what Fujiku said, Tobirama Senju agreed to everything.

"Then I'll trouble the Fifth and Second Hokage. Since that's the case, I have nothing else to do. You can come to the Uchiha clan's territory for tea sometime."

After saying that, Fugaku walked out without looking back.

The ANBU (Anbu) dared not stop him, and then Tobirama Senju sent someone to check if Fugaku had really 'walked' back.

As a result, before they had even walked two blocks, "Fugaku" disappeared.

In his office, upon receiving the news, Tobirama Senju couldn't help but wipe the sweat from his brow: "That's fucking terrifying! Even more evil than the old Uchiha!"

Kakashi's lips twitched when he heard the word 'evil': "Second Hokage, what do we do now? Are we really going to let the Uchiha participate?"

"Nonsense, the list hasn't been removed yet, do you dare to stop them from participating?!"

"Don't dare..."

Chapter 28 The Ninjas from Various Villages with Hidden Motives

July 11th is a special day.

Many unfamiliar figures appeared on the streets of Konoha Village. As the host of the Chunin Exams, the Fifth Kakashi also extended his greetings to the representatives (Jonin) from various countries.

On the street, Ao, a Jonin from Kirigakure, asked another young ninja named Kitamura Matsu beside him, "Kitamura, don't you think Konoha is strange?"

Kitamura Matsu is a ninja from Kirigakure. He has no bloodstains and is considered a rare Jonin still existing in Kirigakure.

He looked around at the peaceful streets, somewhat puzzled: "What's strange? Hasn't Konoha always been like this?"

Qing shook her head slightly. When the representatives from their respective countries arrived at the Hokage Building, Kakashi specifically instructed them not to disturb the Uchiha ninjas if they encountered them, and even more so not to speak with them.

This is truly surprising.

Has something happened to the Uchiha clan in Konoha?

Just as Ao was still trying to figure it out, two squads of genin from Kirigakure came running excitedly.

"Lord Ao, Konoha Village is so big!"

The newcomer was none other than the sixteen-year-old Chojuro. He was originally a newly promoted Chunin in the village, but he had come to participate in the Chunin Exams disguised as a Genin.

The other five genin were true genin; they looked young, the oldest being fifteen and the youngest eleven.

"Chōjūrō." Ao couldn't help but rub his forehead. "The exam is in a couple of days, don't be too careless."

Chojuro's expression tightened. "Don't worry, Lord Ao."

He knew the current situation in Kirigakure, and in order to increase everyone's fear of Kirigakure, at least one person had to secure a Chunin rank in the final exam.

Meanwhile, the Amegakure team was also wandering around, actually Amegakure's representative trying to gather as much information as possible about Konoha.

The representative of Amegakure is a cool and aloof beauty with purple hair, wearing Jonin green armor, brown eyes, and fair skin.

She glanced at the group behind her and said, "Dismissed for now, return after dinner."

"Yes!"

Upon hearing this, the two Rain Shadow teams headed to different streets, their voices filled with excitement as they chatted, as it was their first time visiting such a bustling village.

Konan turned around and looked around, preparing to investigate the matter concerning the Uchiha clan.

The day Obito returned, he immediately went to find Black Zetsu. When Black Zetsu learned that Obito's Mangekyou Sharingan had been weakened, as a long-time Black Zetsu, he didn't believe it at all.

Until Obito used Kamui, and the man holding a wooden spike couldn't pierce Obito's arm...

Subsequently, the news was also passed on to Nagato and Konan.

However, it did not explain that Madara's Mangekyou Sharingan Kamui was weakened. It only said that strange things happened to the Uchiha clan. Despite being wiped out by Itachi alone, they were all resurrected overnight.

The root of all this is most likely a brat named Uchiha Fufan.

Moreover, the resurrection of the major ninjas in the ninja world was most likely his doing.

Therefore, Konan decided to take the risk and pretend to be a Jonin from Amegakure, representing the village to participate in the Chunin Exams and gather as much information as possible about the Uchiha clan.

With limited funds, instead of going to high-end restaurants, they found a small stall, hoping to easily obtain information.

So she found a shop called Ichiraku Ramen.

Upon lifting the curtain, Xiao Nan saw that there were quite a few customers inside Ichiraku Ramen.

Among them, the four little devils sitting on the right side are the most eye-catching.

"Shikamaru, it's so hard to get a date with you."

"...It's not that I don't want to come out, it's just that I have homework scheduled at home every day, and I really can't find the time."

"But my dad had something to do today, and since no one was watching me, I sneaked out to have some ramen with you guys." Shikamaru said with a hint of helplessness.

Naruto slurped up a mouthful of ramen and asked, "Homework? What's that?"

Sasuke thought for a moment and replied, "I guess it's something like training."

"Pretty much...it's mainly about practicing secret techniques..." Shikamaru said.

"I'm so envious... This is what it means to be a ninja with a family fortune~" Bufan wiped away imaginary tears and said, pretending to be sad.

Konan glanced at the group of children; two of them wore Uchiha-style fans, but according to the information Zetsu brought, only one Uchiha remained—a child named Sasuke...

In other words, one of the children was the 'strange Uchiha' that Zetsu mentioned.

"Boss, give me... a regular bowl of ramen."

Uncle Ichiraku sized up Konan's appearance and headband before saying, "Alright! Please wait a moment, guest."

Xiao Nan sat in her seat, looking somewhat expectant.

This is her first time visiting Konoha Village, and she doesn't know if she will run into Jiraiya-sensei.

Then, from the conversation between the four children, she figured out who was Uchiha Sasuke and who was the 'strange Uchiha'.

And coincidentally, that person was the source of the 'strange Uchiha', a child named Uchiha Fufan.

"Interesting." Konan took the ramen that Uncle Ichiraku had made, took a small bite, and then her eyes began to sparkle.

'tasty.'

'Unfortunately, Amegakure doesn't have that many abundant ingredients.'

Looking at the various ingredients in the bowl, and thinking about the situation in Amegakure, Konan couldn't help but sigh slightly.

This is similar to the situation where KFC in a certain country is considered a high-end food brand.

In a backward economy, food is expensive, and it's good enough to be able to eat your fill.

"Huh?" At this moment, Uchiha Fufan finally noticed the aloof beauty beside him. 'Isn't this Konan? She's not in Amegakure, what's she doing in Konoha?'

Shikamaru noticed the unusual look in Bufan's eyes and asked, "What's wrong? Do you know Bufan?"

Bu Fan shook his head slightly, "I don't know her, I just think this lady is very pretty."

He's not stupid. Actively revealing information that others don't know would be suicide. Besides, Konan's identity is very sensitive; she's one of the high-ranking members of the Akatsuki organization.

"..." The three fell silent for a moment, then Shikamaru tentatively asked, "Speaking of which, I recently heard that Lady Tsunade and the Red Jonin have both started pursuing you, right..."

Upon hearing this, Bu Fan couldn't help but sigh: "Yes, being too popular is a hassle."

"Yesterday, Tsunade specially went to the clan to give me a brand new backpack."

I heard the materials used to make this backpack are quite expensive, costing 100,000 taels of silver, which makes me feel a little embarrassed.

Three people: "..."

Naruto: "I'm so envious... I wish I could be this popular too."

That way, Sakura will like me.

Sasuke: "You're like Versailles."

To receive a gift personally delivered by Tsunade, one of the Legendary Sannin and a member of the Senju clan, is an honor that has never happened to the Uchiha clan before.

Shikamaru was at a loss for words.
