  Shin and his team arrived at the Konoha camp, but they weren't greeted with a warm wele. The Konoha Shinobi eyed them with suspi.

  They didn't reize Shin.

  But someone did.

  Homura Mitokado and Koharu Utatane approached. "You're Uzumaki Shin?" Homura asked.

  Shin g them, notig their arrogahey seemed to look down on him.

  Homura was inwardly annoyed by Shin's casual attitude. They were Konoha elders; he should show them some respect.

  But expeg respect from Shin was wishful thinking. Shin found their arrogance distasteful.

  If they weren't disciples of the Sed Hokage, they wouldn't even be elders.

  "The Sandaime seo assist you. But you're a disappoi. Reduced to this state by mere Kiri Shinobi?"

  Shin couldn't resist a jab.

  "Uzumaki Shin, what did you say?! Don't get cocky just because you're strong. We're Konoha elders! Do you know the sequences of disrespeg us?"

  "Weak."

  Shin scoffed.

  Homura and Koharu's faces turned red, then white. The surrounding Konoha Shinobi watched with amusement.

  They had long been dissatisfied with these two elders, who only gave orders and never participated in battle.

  They were partly responsible for Konoha's losses against Kiri.

  "Prepare a pe to rest."

  Shin ighem and spoke to the other Shinobi.

  Despite his age, no one dared to disobey. They had seen the Oails behind him.

  "Uzumaki Shin, you..."

  "Shut up, or I'll kill you!"

  Shi Homura, who felt a chill.

  "I might be here to help, but I hate being ordered around. So don't try to and me, or you'll regret it."

  Shin made his stance clear. He wouldn't take orders from them. He hated being trolled, even by the Sandaime Hokage.

  ....

  He the with Kushina, Mikoto, and Konan, ign Homura and Koharu's expressions of displeasure.

  "Who do they think they are?" Kushina muttered.

  She was annoyed by their arrogance. If they had the strength to back it up, it would be ohing, but they were weak.

  They thought Shin would respect them just because they were elders?

  If they had been more polite, Shin wouldn't have been so rude.

  But they were used to being in positions of authority. Shin wasn't going to indulge them.

  Shin soon arrived at his assigned quarters, a simple tent. That was all they had otlefield.

  And after their ret defeats, they had lost mas during their retreat. Having a tent at all was a luxury.

  "With Kiri's current situation, they probably won't attack for a while," Mikoto said.

  "It's not about waiting for them to attack. It's about taking the offensive," Shin said.

  He wao finish this quickly. In the inal story, Kiri hadn't participated in the Sed Shinobi World War.

  Now, with his mission to help Konoha win the war, Kiri was an obstacle he had to overe.

  "Shin, you're not the ander. You 't decide that," Mikoto said.

  "Who said I heir help? You think I need help to deal with Kiri? They're nothing to me."

  "I really want to punch yht now."

  Kushina gred at Shin, annoyed by his arrogance.

  "Punch me? Kushina, don't overestimate yourself. you eve me?" Shin asked.

  "Yoing to fight back?" Kushina's eyes widened.

  "Of course! If you attack me, I'll fight back! I'll beat you so bad, you'll be g in a er. Want to try?"

  Shin grinned.

  Mikoto and Konan giggled, making Kushina scowl. She grabbed Shin's arm and bit down.

  Shin wiped the saliva off his arm after she let g at her.

  "Shin, you jerk! I'll kill you!"

  Kushina chased Shin around, finally stopping when she was tired. She tio gre at him, though.

  ...

  "Ahem, I'm going to deal with Kiri now," Shin said, thehe Body Flicker Jutsu to disappear.

  Kushina and Mikoto looked at each other.

  "Is he really going to attack Kiri?"

  "Will Shin-nii be okay?" Konan asked worriedly.

  "He'll be fine. He has Space-Time Ninjutsu. He escape if he 't win," Mikoto reassured her.

  "I don't think he'll lose. We should be praying for Kiri," Kushina said.

  ...

  Shin headed towards the Kiri camp.

  He had decided to take the offensive.

  He wasn't trying to be a hero. He had just offended Homura and Koharu; he couldn't expect their help.

  And even if they did attack with the Konoha forces, they would only get in his way.

  Shin headed straight for the Kiri camp, not b to hide. Sneak attacks were pointless.

  They were no match for him anyway.

  Of course, this was because he was fident in his overwhelming strength. If he wasn't, he wouldn't be doing this.

  He wasn't stupid.
